breaking news, Joe Biden is stepping down as the Democratic
presidential candidates, and.

on the other side of the world being boys.
Speaker 4 (00:22):
Come on in, Hey, you guys a lock. Sorry, it

Speaker 6 (00:52):
I just said, I'm glad you've still got that little
jingle on file from the.
Speaker 7 (00:55):
Last time we visited the family in the USA.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
When did you say you are being crazy news? With
Biden just pulling out of the election.
Speaker 6 (01:09):
I know, I mean, I thought the biggest news out
of America today was the fact that I'm stuck for
a couple more days.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
But classic Biden coming in and stealing your thunder.
Speaker 6 (01:18):
His Trump meet to use the opposition.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
No, you went over there on well, you said it
was for a holiday. I know the real reason you
went over for the Republican National Convention to attend to
the Trump rallies. We know that we've been keeping us
a secret for a long time, keep us under It
was a long time New Zealand's only pro Trump broadcaster.
Speaker 5 (01:40):
And no that's not the case.
Speaker 7 (01:43):
But I am wearing a little near pillow.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
So you went out to see family, Yeah, we went.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
For a school holidays.
Speaker 5 (01:53):
Say were family in New York.
Speaker 6 (01:55):
Saw some great sights, you know, it was great. We
saw a statue of Liberty Times Square. We saw a
guy ping into a bottle on Central Part.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Amazing.
Speaker 6 (02:01):
And then and then it got to the end of
the trip, textbook leaving where a hotel and Orlando had
our bags packed, ready to go.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
Down to our last clean pair of underwear and socks.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
You know, it's the end of the travels.
Speaker 6 (02:13):
And then we got word that the computers around the
world had basically gone down, the global IT outage hit,
and that meant our flights have got canceled and we're
here for a couple more days.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
I now what happened there? Like the how did the
internet like it is?
Speaker 2 (02:27):
It's a software update, right, someone cleaned update Microsoft And
it's just like taken everything down.
Speaker 5 (02:35):
It's always a risk, right when you go to do
the updates.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
Should I do the update.
Speaker 5 (02:40):
On my phone?
Speaker 7 (02:40):
Going to be able to handle it? And in this case, no,
it couldn't handle it.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Yeah, no, you always wait for other people to do
the update first thing you get. How's that going on?
Speaker 2 (02:50):
It's a lot of effort you went to just to
get an extra couple of days off work, Ben.
Speaker 5 (02:54):
Well, yes, you're right now.
Speaker 6 (02:55):
I did go to some theme parks and you know,
but there's nothing more scary or thrilling than over here
and spending US dollars and not knowing if travel.
Speaker 5 (03:03):
Insurance are going to cover it, you know.
Speaker 6 (03:04):
Yeah, that's been the most thrilling and exciting ride of
the whole trip.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Oh yeah, well tell you tell your credit card thank you,
thank you for this, because this will milk this. We'll
milk this for as luck we know you back like
next year. Why don't you just stay there and then
eventually you can become our US selection correspondent. Yeah, it'll
be nice.
Speaker 6 (03:25):
At the moment though, it's quite degrading because I've just
washed some underwear and socks and a hotel sink.
Speaker 5 (03:31):
It's a pretty low moment in my life.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
At least you haven't resorted to the jug like some
people do. Don't boil your undies at the jug.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Can you do that? No, you can. It's the question.
All right, we'll keep harassing you on WhatsApp. So you're
in Orlando, Florida right now. How hot is it?
Speaker 4 (03:48):
It's actually really lovely.
Speaker 6 (03:49):
I know no one wants to hear that with winter
back home, but it's about thirty something degrees at the moment,
so at least you know that is a ray of
a literal ray of sunshine.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Well, well, we will be catching up with being later
on in the show because.
Speaker 6 (04:03):
It's yeah, you've been to play it right, you want
to say, USA, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
USA, he's in the USA. We'll bet we'll catch up
with you after seven.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
The heads that jonaan Ben podcast and Meghan here Ben
is currently stuck in America going.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
To cross live to Florida. Orlando has been voiced getting
the hot political takes to on Biden stepping down after
seven o'clock this morning. Now, you you read this story
to me before the show, and I am one hundred
percent if there was more in the percentage of system
to allow me to be one hundred and twenty percent.
On this woman's side, I would be yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
So a woman has flown, she's booked a first class
plane ticket for herself and for her child, apparently, so
she gets on in the has been a booking era,
some kind of era where she has a first class seat,
but her child doesn't, right, So she asked someone in
first class. She asked a woman if she would mind
(05:02):
giving up her first class seat so that her son
can sit with her and experience first class as she
had intended. But the person says no, yes.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
So now this is this is why I'm on this
lady who said no.
Speaker 5 (05:12):
Why.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
On her side, she's been shouted a ticket by her
partner paid for and she said nos, the kid taking
a seat, and it caused immily on the plane.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
But regardless of whether she had been shouted at by
a partner, if she just paid for herself, I still
wouldn't give it up because you paid for the first
class tickets.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
And it's not like it's not like it's an economy
or economy swap, you know, if you're sitting in a
seat where you're in the child's over the other side.
Absolutely one hundred percent of the time, But you know
you're that far away from the economy peasants up there
in business class. You're not going back down.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
But also I thought everyone would be on our side
with this, but so many people online have seid she
should have given it up, including the flight attendant who
hinted to her that she should be more understanding and
let the child sit with the mum.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Now produce to You've been in the airline industry for
many years, the Lombardes, your family rich history in the
airline industry. Does this happen a lot?
Speaker 2 (06:07):
No?
Speaker 3 (06:08):
No, no. Do people book business for themselves and then
their kids in economy.
Speaker 8 (06:12):
I've never had that experience, and neither have my parents
that have heard of. But I know there is an
age limit where you actually legally have to sit with
your kid until they're unaccompanied mine and then it's like whatever.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
So technically she has to sit with the kids.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
How old is the kid must be under twelve, I guess. Yeah,
but she made the kid with her special lady past.
What can't she go sit in economy with kid?
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Exactly?
Speaker 3 (06:37):
You take, because she's like, the kid needs to experience
business class.
Speaker 8 (06:40):
Okay, do it another time.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
Yeah, the kid's got his whole life.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
To experience properly.
Speaker 8 (06:43):
Don't take it.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
The kid's small too. Economy is like business class.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
He's lucky. He's even on a flight.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Yeah, exactly that John and Ben podcast.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
So we've never known Megan not to be sick, just
varying levels of sickness at the moment, battling away after
two weeks of sickness. But also this, this is what
I find is a very humble brag to say you
came into work during your holidays while on your sick bed.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
I could really be like, you know, I was here
working hard. It was late at night. But then you
tell people you're interviewing like one of the biggest heart
throbs at the moment, Glenn.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
Powell, and they're like, oh, poor you.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Yeah, how you watch Sympathy? Then this is a new.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Movie Twister, isn't It's a remake of a sequel to
the old Twister. We had our own Twister interview, didn't
we After the work Christmas party We're being got the
three of us to play Twister. We had a Twister
interview with hr to explain all couldn't look each other
in the eye after that. That's why he's not here
today if you want to wear Benners. Just the ongoing
Twister investigation is happening.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
So Twisters it is a sequel. It doesn't really mention
much about the nineteen ninety six movie, but it's really good.
I went and saw it in Cinema's and then got
to chat to Glenn Powell, Daisy Egger Jones, and Anthony Ramos,
the stars of this, and Steven Spielberg is producer of this.
He actually told Anthony Ramos not to speak in an
(08:06):
America Southern American accent, to do his own Puerto Rican accent,
what he thought was awesome. But that lead me to
of course try and get them to do a Kiwi accent.
Can you guys, you can? You could do a Kiwi accent.
Speaker 9 (08:19):
Ewie is more, it's more it's like it's flatter than
it's flatter.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
And more like thin accent wise, how do you say
twisters in Q? Twisters?
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Twisters?
Speaker 4 (08:30):
Twisters?
Speaker 6 (08:31):
Twisters?
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Can you say tornado tornado? That's pretty simil. Don't confuse
us with He's coming across a little bit aussy twisters, twisters.
It's really confronting when you guys try and something me
it's it's really bad.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
We're gonna do all the rest of our interviews today
in a kia. Please do it sounds like they're taking
the mickey, doesn't it? From New Zealand with twisters and tornadoes? Yeah? God,
you have got a got a shocking accent here, don't
we really?
Speaker 2 (09:11):
And then I thought, well, you know, like if you
get caught in a tornado, obviously they should know what
they're doing, now do they? Would they do?
Speaker 4 (09:18):
You?
Speaker 3 (09:19):
Guys?
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Reckon if you were in a natural disaster now that
you would be able to handle yourselves, particularly if a
twister was to occur.
Speaker 9 (09:27):
I think I know to what i'd actually I actually
was the first time I ever filmed in the South.
I was filming in Louisiana, and I the first night
I got there, there was a tornado warning on my
Like I woke up to a tornado warning, I know,
like on the phone, and I was like, what do
I do?
Speaker 3 (09:45):
I didn't know what to do.
Speaker 9 (09:46):
I know, you have to go like inside, away from windows,
preferably obviously in a bunker if you can, or blow ground.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
But yeah, so not in a bath in.
Speaker 9 (09:56):
A bubble baths like light some candles try to stay
calm right out of tornado.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
And if you didn't hear, this is Glenn Powell, Daisy
Egga Jones and Anthony Ramas. But Glenn Powell, he's a
very attractive man, right, okay, And it's a zooms.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
More than a piece of meat. Mean, he's more than
a piece of meat.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
He's very lovely. But I asked this last question, did
I did I insult Glenn Powell? So out of the
three of you, who is most likely to run away
crying in a disaster situation?
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Do you think?
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Please say Glenn, I just really wanted to be.
Speaker 7 (10:35):
That.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
I'm not doing this key we accent. He became less
hot then.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
They said, yeah, me mean, but yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
You heard his hot feelings. They give you free tickets
to movies or what?
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Yeah, I did get free tics.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
The cast gave you the free tickets.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
It's very nice and didn't give me.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
He didn't give you free There we go. There's the
cast of Twister with Megan pep.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Very good, very good movie hits that Jonavan Ben pok.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
This this morning. Joe Biden is not seeking re election because
he's pulling out of the presidential candidacy, and Donald Trump
has responded, what do you reckon? Did he go the
high road and he's got a gag?
Speaker 3 (11:14):
What's he locked him? Has he still got his ear
pillow on his ear?
Speaker 2 (11:18):
He still? I think it's yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
You don't want to weep he saw, do you? No?
Speaker 2 (11:24):
He said, Biden will be remembered as the single worst
president by far, in the history of our country. So
he took the high road.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Check an old man when he's lying down, I reckon. Anyway,
those do say it will affect Trump's chances too, because
he was actually talking up Biden. He's going, oh, no,
he's good. He's a good candidate because he knew he
was going to mow over him and all the debates
and things. So now the Democrats potentially move in a younger,
shinier model and this could actually not play in Trump's favors.
(11:56):
So but mind you, he's got an ear pillow of
so what what you could not script this?
Speaker 2 (12:02):
No, it's I mean, it's nothing if not entertaining.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Who's saw online someone saying they're really enjoying the finale
season of America right now? Oh my god? Yeah, the
Internet outrage the Internet and we will be actually crossing
live to Trump territory, Florida, Orlando, Florida. We've been Voyce
is currently over there now from radio host stranded on
holiday with his family to our US correspondent, Yeah, we'll
(12:26):
get his hot, hot political takes on Biden stepping down.
But the Internet, it likes to get outrage. Although they
always like, oh, the Internet is outraged over something, but
it's a it's a big sweeping statement. I looked. Do
you know five points three billion people are on the Internet.
That's a big statement to say.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
How many are we in the world? Eight billion?
Speaker 3 (12:46):
Yeah, so that means, you know, over three billion. Two
points about two point six billion don't use the internet? Yeah,
two six billion.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
What do they do with their days?
Speaker 3 (12:56):
How do they know what other people's opinions are without
them being shoved down your throat?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Where do they post pictures of their life?
Speaker 3 (13:01):
How do they know how to fix anything without YouTube? Jeez,
they must be living I reckon. They must have to
make their own pornography, wouldn't they? These people with no Internet?
But they're probably leading a happier existence. Magazine there's magazine, Sure,
that's right, But yeah, the Internet outrage we like to
give a headline. Megan, you have to try and figure
(13:22):
out why the Internet would be outraged at this. Now
the headline is Internet outraged over dead fly. Have a brainstorm.
Why do you think the Internet would be outraged over this?
And the food and food you're ooh, you're warm, you
are well, you are warm?
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Okay, the dead flies somewhere it's not supposed to be right.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
You know what, I'm going to give it to you
the word fly activists or you know, discuss it at
more team for ruining flies live.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
He suffered a slow and painful death.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
You are you're kind of in the ballpark now. This
was a story that got the internet completely outraged. In India,
where there are a cup they were at a party
and they were sharing their wonderful money saving tip with
someone else at the party. They were like, what we
do is we wander around with the dead fly in
our pockets and when we go to restaurants, high end restaurants,
(14:12):
once they bring out the meal, we slipped the fly.
And now the person they were telling the story too
then obviously did the sensible thing and took it to
the Internet and he said he was outraged that they
do this, but this gets them free meals, free sometimes
free entire dinners because they then cause a scene.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
They're like, yeah, there's no winning for the hospitality industry
in that scenario because you have even if you think,
even if you know that they planted the fly, you can't.
The customer is always right. You can't say that.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Unless you got them on camera. Get them on camera,
and then that really does there to slap in the
face of the person putting it. You know, you never
want to be caught putting a fly into food. De
that's degrading, it's not a good look.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
So bad.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Yeah, I do go out for dinner if you can't
afford it.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
If you can, that's a good lack life slipped something.
I know you you've been in the hospital industry. You
owned a cafe.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
Yeah, did you.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Ever put anything anyone's food?
Speaker 2 (15:07):
No?
Speaker 3 (15:07):
God, no, not intentionally, but.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
No, I don't think we ever had a hero or
fly complaint or anything like that. A one one complaint
remains in my mind where a woman ordered like it
was like beef cheek on toast, and her complaint was
after she'd eaten most of it was it was too meaty.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Too meaty. So you're like, hold on, let me just
sort that out for you talking out back, spat and
sped on the meal. Did you gave it back to it?
Speaker 2 (15:31):
I was just like, don't don't finish it then? I
mean you ordered literally meat on toast.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
But yeah, to meet the hits.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
That John and Ben podcast, Meghan.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
Now the audience they in trust in Megan. They don't
entrust in their closest friends and family. They missed you
on Instagram and pose their issues to you. This is real.
This is split split me down the middle.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
I don't know what the right answer here is, but
we're going to check it out there and you can
feel free to way in and give advice.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Yeah, because we don't have any helpful advice for this
particular person, so any you can offer would be most appreciated.
It's about employment, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
It is here go, dear Meghan. I'll keep the details
light as I don't want my friend to catch on
to anything. She was made redundant at the beginning of
the year and has been relentlessly applying for jobs, but
hasn't landed any of them. Last week, she told me
she'd applied for a management role at the company I
work for. Coincidentally, I have also thrown my hat in
(16:29):
the ring for the position, and I know for a
fact that I'm one of the lead candidates. She told
me that she's made it to the interview process, but
I'm too nervous to tell her that I have as well.
I'm really tempted to pull out of the running. And
she's one of my best friends and I already have
a job while she doesn't. On the other hand, professionally,
I really want this climb up the ladder. Please help
(16:50):
with any advice. Wheow, Oh, she's I kind of feel like,
if she's a really good friend, couldn't you just go
to her and be like, hey, I've applied to Like,
shall we just write it out and see.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
What you could do? Is you could sabotage her friends
application and be like, oh, I heard she interfere with
her last manager. That's the way she's Well, she stole
the company credit card and brought it high end pillow,
you know, Feather Douvey. INA's at Westfield or something. But
the trouble is, if you still get that job, yeah,
then you cut off all comms.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Okay, right, yeah, I think you're missing the part where
she sees she's one of her best free.
Speaker 3 (17:26):
Yeah, no, this is a really tough personally. I think
I would consider pulling out. You've got a gig. But
you've got a gig, you've.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Got She's trying to climb up the ladder at her company.
This is a great opportunity. Surely your friend would understand
if you just you leave it in the hands of
management to decide who's better for the role.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
Yeah, surely your friend understands as they are forget how
they pay the next two weeks. Yeah, I understand. While
you do this, I get the big question markers. You know,
the friend doesn't guarantee to get the job, so it's
not a and she might have applied for other jobs.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Yeah, because how are you going to feel if you pull
out and then she still doesn't get it? You're like,
I gotta gone.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
We have no answers on this one. What would you
do have you been in this situation? Surely this might
have happened with someone in the know as very specific,
isn't it. It's probably happened to no one in the past.
But if you've got any advice, we would really love it.
On here. You always very helpful. The Hits audience. Oh
one hundred hits four for eighty seven. What would you do?
Would you go for the gig? Would you tell your
(18:28):
friend or would.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
You secretly pull out?
Speaker 3 (18:30):
Yeah, let us know.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
The hits that jonaan Ben podcast TM Megan, this is.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
A friend dilemma. So someone works at a business where
they are going for a role in upper management, but
their best friend has also applied for the same role
and they've both made it through the into interview process.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
However, the best friend who's applied is currently unemployed, has
been so for a number of months.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Was made redundant. But you have a job this person
as a.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Job your best friend doesn't. Do you pull out of
the running to allow your best friend to go and again,
the guarantee is not that the best friend will get
the job.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Do you talk to your friend and say, is it
all right if we both just go for it and
see what happens?
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Megan, I made my sabotage the friend's application idea. That
was just getting the spitball happening in the brain storm,
which didn't fly. I said, you know, you could start
dropping vicious rumors about the friend and chancellor out of
the running, and.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Then you get the job and the friendship's over, and
you what, you never talked to her again.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
But then you could be like, oh no, I didn't
go for it. But then they're like, oh, we've got
no one else because your bloody friend who had the
ramp in the field of the manager. We had to
get rid of hers, orould've given to you. Right, very
elaborate back story.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
I feel like, no matter what, you're going to have
to have some sort of conversation unless you just quietly pull.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Out bess, we're going to get you on here. How
do you solve this issue?
Speaker 10 (19:51):
For the person direction, there's an acid test here, an
acid test? And I said, I said, the person that
already worked for the company, did she know that her
best friend had applied for this position when she did?
In that case, how good a friend is she?
Speaker 3 (20:08):
Okay, you wanted some further deeps are your bears?
Speaker 10 (20:12):
And if she did apply for the position before her
best mate, that's a simple conversation saying.

Oh my god, I can't believe you're applied. I have
to before you did.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
Now someone just text in bears. So you're doing the
good honor, straightforward approach and having a conversation like a
normal adult so well done. Bears someone's texts in saying, uh,

Speaker 1 (22:52):
Yeah, that's the way in on a lull, the hits
that John and Ben.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
Podcast apparently stuck in the US.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
A welcome back, Ben, who's not in New Zealand. He's
not in the hit studio. Where did you say? You are?
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Ben?
Speaker 6 (23:06):
Coming to you from the Home of the Free in
the land of Donald Trump's air bandage and the USA.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
In the USA, he's stranded stranded in the USA thanks
to the global internet outage. Now, I'm struggling to get
my head around when was this internet outage four or
five days ago? I don't know how it is delayed
has returned by another four or five days. I can't
(23:33):
do the maths on that, but somehow it has and
he's found himself stuck in Orlando, Florida. You've been over
there for a couple of weeks. Biden has just pulled
out of the presidential race. What have people been saying.
Speaker 6 (23:45):
Well, to be fair, I've been in a lot of
touristy areas, so it hasn't been that much of a chat.
Speaker 7 (23:50):
But every time you turn on.
Speaker 6 (23:51):
The TV, every time you go on social media, it
is everywhere the big presidential race.
Speaker 5 (23:56):
I did hear because I was.
Speaker 6 (23:57):
On a flight from New York to a and when
obviously the assassination attempt went on with Trump, and as
the plane land, I had heard someone behind me go,
someone tried to kill Trump and then he went he's
all right now, and that was that. That's all I've
heard from anyone on the grounds.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
But they didn't seem too faced.
Speaker 5 (24:13):
That were he there?
Speaker 1 (24:14):
That wasn't two face.
Speaker 5 (24:15):
But it's the same in a real tourist this sort
of area.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
Now, what have the tourists been saying as well? What
have they been talking about? What have they been saying
a lot.
Speaker 6 (24:22):
Of people not a lot of people talking about the temperature,
how hot it is along the lines, exchange rates, that
sort of thing.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
It was generally avoiding politics while on holiday.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
Yeah, yeah, have you seen flow Rider over there? The rapper?
Speaker 1 (24:38):
No?
Speaker 5 (24:38):
I haven't, but it is.
Speaker 6 (24:39):
You know, it's one of those big life changing moments
when you work out the flow Rider the rapper his
name is Florida.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
Yeah yeah, yeah, that blew my mind when I found it. Yeah,
how long did you know?
Speaker 2 (24:51):
No?
Speaker 3 (24:52):
Did you know?
Speaker 2 (24:53):
I think I knew all along, all along? Yeah, Florida.
He's not Florida, right, it's from Miami, I.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
Mean, little mate. Ye all there we have been saying.
Ben I did want to go over to attend the
Trump rallies, the first Trump rallies, So he did that
he was visiting family. We knew the real reason his
family is the Trump family.
Speaker 4 (25:17):
No, well hey no, but you know that's quite it's quite.
Speaker 6 (25:20):
Weird, you know, going around when you do see people
wearing you know, make America Great Again caps or T
shirts and it's not for ironic reasons. It's for people,
you know, quite proud to support Trump.
Speaker 5 (25:31):
So you know, it's one of those things that's.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
You're deep in Trump territory right now? Is there like
is there a.
Speaker 3 (25:36):
Stay at Mary Lago? Aren't you a bloody resort? Were
fifteen discount?
Speaker 6 (25:46):
We're wondering why, you know, why this global it crisis
thing happened?
Speaker 7 (25:50):
And I'm going to put on my daughter see you.
Speaker 6 (25:51):
Because she's got a theory of how this all happened
and why we're still here.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
See you know, hello, I see you know.
Speaker 11 (25:57):
Hi.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
Howdy howdy?
Speaker 13 (26:00):
How's life in the sixth degree with that?
Speaker 4 (26:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (26:04):
No, not not good mate? Now, how because we know
how your dad feels about having to extend your trip
by four days the official death of his credit card? Well,
how was it for you not having to worry about
any of that?
Speaker 13 (26:16):
It's like really good because I was supposed to have
like heaps a test this week that I'm like missing.
So I'm actually feeling pretty good about it because I
can just sit by the pool while all my friends
are at school.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
Idea, jeez, this is ideal for you. Did you manifest
this in some way seeing A?
Speaker 1 (26:32):
I did so.
Speaker 13 (26:33):
The night before we were supposed to go, as we're
all packing up our stuff and Dad was pacing around
making sure that we hadn't forgot anything, I was like, oh,
I really wish we could.
Speaker 14 (26:42):
Just stay a night longer, and he was like, well, yeah, it's.
Speaker 13 (26:44):
Been a great holiday, oh blah blah blah blah, And
I was I just want just one more night, I hope.
And I was telling him, I was like, I'm not
leaving tomorrow, Like, you can't force me to leave, but
obviously I was still going to go. And then the
next morning, they're all on their computers and they're like
what They're like?
Speaker 2 (26:59):
I was like, what's going on?
Speaker 13 (27:00):
A flight's been canceled, And I think that I manifested
it happening. So this is your sign to manifest if
you want something to happen.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Yeah, Well, if you could also manifest your dare to
be able to pay off the credit card with no
issues too.
Speaker 4 (27:15):
Yeah I have.
Speaker 6 (27:17):
I've definitely not manifested this moment, that moment on home
alone when he made his family disappear.
Speaker 5 (27:24):
That's what happened.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
Well, there we go, being boys deep in mega make
America great again, Territory and Flora and Florida.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
Don't bring us back aheat.
Speaker 3 (27:35):

You wouldn't get a better name for the profession. Okay,
Charlotte Buyers had us logan and everything. It's a buyer's
market genius. Like it's almost she was as soon as

Yeah, my maiden last name was Sellers. Could have been
a good you.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
Would have been a good year. You could have been
an auctionaire, drug dealer, anything, anything. The world was your
oysters as sellers, pappas. Now what could you do as pappas?
I guess look after if your hand, if your name

radio industry.

eight seven. There it's a thing too, as an actual
science behind it, that you have given your name you're
attracted to certain professions. Really, yeah, No, nominative determinism as
(29:30):
a hypothesis that people are sort of destined for a
line of work, right, so that we.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Were always destined to be talking rubbish everyde.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
Yeah, I don't know. I don't know what our names mean,

Speaker 1 (32:38):
The hits that Jonaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
Biden has dropped out of the US presidential race, and
we crossed down to our US correspondent.
Speaker 4 (32:47):
In the USA.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
He strandeds thanks to the global internet outage. He's stranded
in the USA after heading over the end to visit family. Man.
Maybe I was thinking maybe someone from the Internet clicked
on that bloody Indian TA link. You know that you
get text ruined at all for us. But somehow, somehow,
the internet outage that happened on Friday has meant Ben
(33:13):
is not returning to sort of towards the end of
this week. Do you know, Megan, we've been trying to
get our heads around that.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
Yeah, I'm not sure how that works.
Speaker 4 (33:20):
Then, look, I'm trying to get my head around it.
Speaker 6 (33:22):
I'm not sure how it has happened like this, but anyway,
we're going to be going home tomorrow.
Speaker 7 (33:27):
Morning US time through Atlanta, then.
Speaker 6 (33:30):
Through Los Angeles and then hopefully on to New Zealand,
so I'll see some of.
Speaker 7 (33:33):
The world's greatest airports for a few hours.
Speaker 3 (33:36):
We have said, you know, this is what do you do?
What do you do? You take this as bereavement?
Speaker 4 (33:40):
Leave?
Speaker 3 (33:40):
Do you add this on to you? And maybe it's
the death of your credit card that could be the bereavement.
Speaker 4 (33:45):
It's given the death of the credit card.
Speaker 5 (33:47):
As I said earlier, travel insurance.
Speaker 6 (33:49):
But it's a very interesting situation to be a they've
never had anything like this before.
Speaker 7 (33:53):
Apparently you know, oh this hasn't happened before.
Speaker 3 (33:59):
But you still have to cover us, right this really
blind side of us. Maybe it's punishment because I've been
following you on social media. Maybe this is punishment for
embarrassing your family with novelty costumes across America for the
last four nights.
Speaker 4 (34:12):
That's true, I did. I didn't pack my bag full.
Speaker 6 (34:14):
Of costumes or a hot dog costume and a hot
dog in New York an M and M costume.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
How did you fat all those costumes in your suit case?
Speaker 6 (34:22):
You know, well, I sacrificed a lot of clothes years
and now the holidays dragged on a few more days.
I am really running out of stuff quite desperately, and
the New Zealand dollar is not great, so I'm resisting
the urge to buy new stuff.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
He's flying home in a hot dog costume.
Speaker 4 (34:40):
Exactly now.
Speaker 6 (34:41):
I we don't know how this happened or why this happens,
but I have a week theory right now, and I'm
going to put my wife Amanda on who's with.
Speaker 5 (34:47):
Us right now, because I think she jinks it. Man
set the scene final.
Speaker 6 (34:52):
Night of our holiday with visiting family in New York,
where I'd run the family ragged at theme parks. Relentless
schedule made them get there an hour before, an hour
after closing.
Speaker 14 (35:02):
But anyway into the holiday and Amanda hardy folks from
the Green Sun, the.
Speaker 3 (35:06):
State of fly out, Amanda, howdy.
Speaker 14 (35:10):
So yeah, I think I might have jinxed.
Speaker 12 (35:12):
And I'm going to put my hand up and take
claim for this because on the last day I was like, Wow,
this has been such an amazing family holiday.
Speaker 14 (35:19):
I was trying to be present and just show our
appreciation of how lucky we are to be all healthy.
Speaker 12 (35:25):
No one's broken a limb, no one's got sick, we
haven't lost our luggage. It's just been like everything has
just flowed really well, except for the part where.
Speaker 14 (35:35):
My husband has a very active He's a very active restor.
So we're getting up at six thirty in the morning
and we keep going and nobody gets.

At rest at all before you're starting at sixty eleven.
Speaker 14 (35:48):
Wow, runs SLISters hard out man. He runs us like a.
Speaker 3 (35:56):
Should I say it runs you like a military operation there.
Speaker 1 (35:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
Yeah, maybe this is the universe giving you some just
rest time after this.
Speaker 14 (36:06):
Thank you, Thank you so much. I have got my
book and I have been lying out and I know.
Speaker 3 (36:11):
I'm so well. All he'll be wanting to do right
now is just stuff.
Speaker 14 (36:14):
He's hating it.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Yeah, he's hating it.
Speaker 14 (36:16):
He's like, right, let's go for a run. Let's go
down to the gym. He's already been to the gym.
Speaker 2 (36:22):

to him about ten minutes time. Biden's pulled out of
the US election. Hot political takes from Ben Boyce and
Trump Trump Territory, Florida from ten minutes.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
But my parents came to stay with me over my
two week break, and it's really made me like reassess
my life.
Speaker 3 (37:14):
As an adult. Ray Ray and Waino. Were they helpful
around the house.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
That's an understatement. They found things that I didn't even
know were broken. My dad fixed the toilet seat. He
like scrubbed our stove. He's like out in the GUARDI
mode the lawns several.
Speaker 3 (37:31):
Times, several times over two weeks.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
I didn't do any washings.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
Grasses and growing much at this topic. Year so well,
they like to make themselves feel useful, though when they
come to.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
Stuff, they feel terrible because they're just constantly like working
and year they're going to carry on.
Speaker 3 (37:50):
You're like you do, keep folding, keep binding.
Speaker 2 (37:53):
I was like this t shirt has never been owned
the whole time I've owned it.
Speaker 3 (37:56):
How nice now, producing Taylor, you went to Sydney to
see your.
Speaker 8 (37:59):
Parents Lombardies, pay them a visit and yeah, completely the
same Mega. I reverted back to a six year old
where I forgot how to use my arms and legs,
and like it would be like that obviously cooked me dinner, dessert,
and then it'd be like ten pm and I'd be
a bit peckish. So all I'd have to do is
look at Mom and go, oh, I'm a bit hungry,
(38:19):
and she'd just yell out edge to my dad, make
your daughter some food. So he'd go downstairs and make
me four cruskets with butter and Swiss cheese.
Speaker 3 (38:29):
Weird combo. I wasn't going to criticize him, but battering
to battering is an annoying process.
Speaker 8 (38:36):
Then he'd waddle it back upstairs, give it to me.
Mum would have a bite and then she'd yell back edge.
Speaker 4 (38:42):
Make me.
Speaker 3 (38:44):
It's like living home care, isn't it when they come
and stay?
Speaker 2 (38:47):
But it's weird. You do revert back to being a kid,
and you're like, because I was second, I'm just like mom,
look after me, lift me extra brockets.
Speaker 3 (38:57):
On, let me fold the washes. Stop to put it
for John boys out there, bloody painting gardening.
Speaker 2 (39:03):
It's grown as man, John, I know, I.
Speaker 3 (39:05):
Am a grown ass man. The wholething's spawned off.
Speaker 1 (39:09):
The heads that John and Ben podcast.

known you not to be sick, So it was just
like normal. But you're just being sick from home this
time over the last time.

and my daughter had an ear fiction. So we just
hung out at home miserable for a week or so.

up when your body says, bruh, it's time to get up,
you know, get up and Georgia day No One had
alarms that that terrible alarm. Here there was nice, it
was lovely.

and they were like, you know, get down there, and
uh no you weren't available. You had you were sick.
Probably Ben was flying overseas. So it was just me,
that lone wolf going down representing this best and this
(40:32):
pillar of broadcasting, this program at the Teddy Swims.
Speaker 2 (40:35):
But I did hear about you at this concert?
Speaker 3 (40:38):
What did you do well? Because we met him here
and I was like, well I should maybe in Bryne,
who does the night show here on the Hits. He
had a good joke. He's like, tell Teddy Swims my joke.
He says, do you want to know here is Teddy
Swims joke? Yeah, Teddy Swims. But he also surfs. He
wanted me to say that to him. I didn't. I
didn't say he didn't say.
Speaker 2 (40:58):
I wanted to know what he would say.
Speaker 3 (40:59):
Yeah, I didn't muster that up. I did ask him
if I could ride down with them in the in
his van. Ride Yeah. He politely politely said no, he's listen,
we've got too many people. Then I made Taylor and
me ran down. Producer Taylor and I ran down. But
we got to the got to the concert, and I
had a megaphone trying to get the vibes up. I
(41:20):
felt that was my role vibes officer.
Speaker 2 (41:22):
Were you self appointed hype guy?
Speaker 3 (41:25):
Yeah? Because you just pulled titties there. He's performing to
a whole bunch of stressed out commuters who are probably
waiting for a broken down train to start, trying to
make the way home on a Friday night. I was
well go down as a vibes guy. Turns out he
didn't need it. There was plenty of people there. He
was fine, but we still needed to make use of
the megaphone.
Speaker 4 (41:40):
Hey, Brandy, were you doing Oh my god?
Speaker 14 (41:43):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (41:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (41:46):
They said less surprise and color, and I just wanted
to say thank you. It's such an honor to be
a party of Big Day and I hope, I hope
you're just absolutely crushing it in your marriage and it's
still as beautiful as it was. That was the moment
we made titty phone someone. They had nothing to do
with what I was talking about. Hears Teddy swimps is resky.
This is here we go start a chance to start
a chart. Oh it's loud. Yeah, no, not going back
(42:19):
to it?
Speaker 5 (42:19):
Are you like?
Speaker 3 (42:20):
Oh yeah? There's those moments where you're like, what are
we doing with our lives? And there was there was
one he played the song he did, he listened, he
listened to one last song chance, But I still had
a megaphone. This is at the end of the concert.
(42:41):
Smattering of enthusiasm is a couple of people joining. Yeah,
they kind of bullied into it around.
Speaker 2 (42:46):
So that was singing on the street that you played.
Speaker 3 (42:49):
Yeah, incredible, right, God.

we want to open up. We haven't been here for

The Heads with the John and Ben podcast. Cheers to
Delmark making the world a bitter tea.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Stuck in the USA and speaking of worch this morning,
breaking news, Joe Biden is stepping down as the Democratic
presidential candidates, and.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
We cross live now to our fearless anchor, who's anchored
on the other side of the world being boys.
Speaker 4 (00:22):
Come on in, Hey, you guys a lock. Sorry, it
is not exactly where our plan to be today.
Speaker 5 (00:28):
We're aware of the USA.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
So when did you say you are.
Speaker 5 (00:31):
I'm in the USA? Why's that.
Speaker 4 (00:35):
The USA?
Speaker 5 (00:39):
US?
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Sorry? The Boss was just drowning out.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
What did you say?
Speaker 3 (00:51):
What you're saying?
Speaker 6 (00:52):
I just said, I'm glad you've still got that little
jingle on file from the.
Speaker 7 (00:55):
Last time we visited the family in the USA.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
When did you say you are being crazy news? With
Biden just pulling out of the election.
Speaker 6 (01:09):
I know, I mean, I thought the biggest news out
of America today was the fact that I'm stuck for
a couple more days.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
But classic Biden coming in and stealing your thunder.
Speaker 6 (01:18):
His Trump meet to use the opposition.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
No, you went over there on well, you said it
was for a holiday. I know the real reason you
went over for the Republican National Convention to attend to
the Trump rallies. We know that we've been keeping us
a secret for a long time, keep us under It
was a long time New Zealand's only pro Trump broadcaster.
Speaker 5 (01:40):
And no that's not the case.
Speaker 7 (01:43):
But I am wearing a little near pillow.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
So you went out to see family, Yeah, we went.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
For a school holidays.
Speaker 5 (01:53):
Say were family in New York.
Speaker 6 (01:55):
Saw some great sights, you know, it was great. We
saw a statue of Liberty Times Square. We saw a
guy ping into a bottle on Central Part.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Amazing.
Speaker 6 (02:01):
And then and then it got to the end of
the trip, textbook leaving where a hotel and Orlando had
our bags packed, ready to go.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
Down to our last clean pair of underwear and socks.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
You know, it's the end of the travels.
Speaker 6 (02:13):
And then we got word that the computers around the
world had basically gone down, the global IT outage hit,
and that meant our flights have got canceled and we're
here for a couple more days.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
I now what happened there? Like the how did the
internet like it is?
Speaker 2 (02:27):
It's a software update, right, someone cleaned update Microsoft And
it's just like taken everything down.
Speaker 5 (02:35):
It's always a risk, right when you go to do
the updates.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
Should I do the update.
Speaker 5 (02:40):
On my phone?
Speaker 7 (02:40):
Going to be able to handle it? And in this case, no,
it couldn't handle it.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Yeah, no, you always wait for other people to do
the update first thing you get. How's that going on?
Speaker 2 (02:50):
It's a lot of effort you went to just to
get an extra couple of days off work, Ben.
Speaker 5 (02:54):
Well, yes, you're right now.
Speaker 6 (02:55):
I did go to some theme parks and you know,
but there's nothing more scary or thrilling than over here
and spending US dollars and not knowing if travel.
Speaker 5 (03:03):
Insurance are going to cover it, you know.
Speaker 6 (03:04):
Yeah, that's been the most thrilling and exciting ride of
the whole trip.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Oh yeah, well tell you tell your credit card thank you,
thank you for this, because this will milk this. We'll
milk this for as luck we know you back like
next year. Why don't you just stay there and then
eventually you can become our US selection correspondent. Yeah, it'll
be nice.
Speaker 6 (03:25):
At the moment though, it's quite degrading because I've just
washed some underwear and socks and a hotel sink.
Speaker 5 (03:31):
It's a pretty low moment in my life.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
At least you haven't resorted to the jug like some
people do. Don't boil your undies at the jug.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Can you do that? No, you can. It's the question.
All right, we'll keep harassing you on WhatsApp. So you're
in Orlando, Florida right now. How hot is it?
Speaker 4 (03:48):
It's actually really lovely.
Speaker 6 (03:49):
I know no one wants to hear that with winter
back home, but it's about thirty something degrees at the moment,
so at least you know that is a ray of
a literal ray of sunshine.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Well, well, we will be catching up with being later
on in the show because.
Speaker 6 (04:03):
It's yeah, you've been to play it right, you want
to say, USA, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
USA, he's in the USA. We'll bet we'll catch up
with you after seven.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
The heads that jonaan Ben podcast and Meghan here Ben
is currently stuck in America going.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
To cross live to Florida. Orlando has been voiced getting
the hot political takes to on Biden stepping down after
seven o'clock this morning. Now, you you read this story
to me before the show, and I am one hundred
percent if there was more in the percentage of system
to allow me to be one hundred and twenty percent.
On this woman's side, I would be yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
So a woman has flown, she's booked a first class
plane ticket for herself and for her child, apparently, so
she gets on in the has been a booking era,
some kind of era where she has a first class seat,
but her child doesn't, right, So she asked someone in
first class. She asked a woman if she would mind
(05:02):
giving up her first class seat so that her son
can sit with her and experience first class as she
had intended. But the person says no, yes.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
So now this is this is why I'm on this
lady who said no.
Speaker 5 (05:12):
Why.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
On her side, she's been shouted a ticket by her
partner paid for and she said nos, the kid taking
a seat, and it caused immily on the plane.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
But regardless of whether she had been shouted at by
a partner, if she just paid for herself, I still
wouldn't give it up because you paid for the first
class tickets.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
And it's not like it's not like it's an economy
or economy swap, you know, if you're sitting in a
seat where you're in the child's over the other side.
Absolutely one hundred percent of the time, But you know
you're that far away from the economy peasants up there
in business class. You're not going back down.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
But also I thought everyone would be on our side
with this, but so many people online have seid she
should have given it up, including the flight attendant who
hinted to her that she should be more understanding and
let the child sit with the mum.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Now produce to You've been in the airline industry for
many years, the Lombardes, your family rich history in the
airline industry. Does this happen a lot?
Speaker 2 (06:07):
No?
Speaker 3 (06:08):
No, no. Do people book business for themselves and then
their kids in economy.
Speaker 8 (06:12):
I've never had that experience, and neither have my parents
that have heard of. But I know there is an
age limit where you actually legally have to sit with
your kid until they're unaccompanied mine and then it's like whatever.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
So technically she has to sit with the kids.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
How old is the kid must be under twelve, I guess. Yeah,
but she made the kid with her special lady past.
What can't she go sit in economy with kid?
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Exactly?
Speaker 3 (06:37):
You take, because she's like, the kid needs to experience
business class.
Speaker 8 (06:40):
Okay, do it another time.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
Yeah, the kid's got his whole life.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
To experience properly.
Speaker 8 (06:43):
Don't take it.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
The kid's small too. Economy is like business class.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
He's lucky. He's even on a flight.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Yeah, exactly that John and Ben podcast.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
So we've never known Megan not to be sick, just
varying levels of sickness at the moment, battling away after
two weeks of sickness. But also this, this is what
I find is a very humble brag to say you
came into work during your holidays while on your sick bed.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
I could really be like, you know, I was here
working hard. It was late at night. But then you
tell people you're interviewing like one of the biggest heart
throbs at the moment, Glenn.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
Powell, and they're like, oh, poor you.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Yeah, how you watch Sympathy? Then this is a new.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Movie Twister, isn't It's a remake of a sequel to
the old Twister. We had our own Twister interview, didn't
we After the work Christmas party We're being got the
three of us to play Twister. We had a Twister
interview with hr to explain all couldn't look each other
in the eye after that. That's why he's not here
today if you want to wear Benners. Just the ongoing
Twister investigation is happening.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
So Twisters it is a sequel. It doesn't really mention
much about the nineteen ninety six movie, but it's really good.
I went and saw it in Cinema's and then got
to chat to Glenn Powell, Daisy Egger Jones, and Anthony Ramos,
the stars of this, and Steven Spielberg is producer of this.
He actually told Anthony Ramos not to speak in an
(08:06):
America Southern American accent, to do his own Puerto Rican accent,
what he thought was awesome. But that lead me to
of course try and get them to do a Kiwi accent.
Can you guys, you can? You could do a Kiwi accent.
Speaker 9 (08:19):
Ewie is more, it's more it's like it's flatter than
it's flatter.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
And more like thin accent wise, how do you say
twisters in Q? Twisters?
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Twisters?
Speaker 4 (08:30):
Twisters?
Speaker 6 (08:31):
Twisters?
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Can you say tornado tornado? That's pretty simil. Don't confuse
us with He's coming across a little bit aussy twisters, twisters.
It's really confronting when you guys try and something me
it's it's really bad.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
We're gonna do all the rest of our interviews today
in a kia. Please do it sounds like they're taking
the mickey, doesn't it? From New Zealand with twisters and tornadoes? Yeah? God,
you have got a got a shocking accent here, don't
we really?
Speaker 2 (09:11):
And then I thought, well, you know, like if you
get caught in a tornado, obviously they should know what
they're doing, now do they? Would they do?
Speaker 4 (09:18):
You?
Speaker 3 (09:19):
Guys?
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Reckon if you were in a natural disaster now that
you would be able to handle yourselves, particularly if a
twister was to occur.
Speaker 9 (09:27):
I think I know to what i'd actually I actually
was the first time I ever filmed in the South.
I was filming in Louisiana, and I the first night
I got there, there was a tornado warning on my
Like I woke up to a tornado warning, I know,
like on the phone, and I was like, what do
I do?
Speaker 3 (09:45):
I didn't know what to do.
Speaker 9 (09:46):
I know, you have to go like inside, away from windows,
preferably obviously in a bunker if you can, or blow ground.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
But yeah, so not in a bath in.
Speaker 9 (09:56):
A bubble baths like light some candles try to stay
calm right out of tornado.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
And if you didn't hear, this is Glenn Powell, Daisy
Egga Jones and Anthony Ramas. But Glenn Powell, he's a
very attractive man, right, okay, And it's a zooms.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
More than a piece of meat. Mean, he's more than
a piece of meat.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
He's very lovely. But I asked this last question, did
I did I insult Glenn Powell? So out of the
three of you, who is most likely to run away
crying in a disaster situation?
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Do you think?
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Please say Glenn, I just really wanted to be.
Speaker 7 (10:35):
That.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
I'm not doing this key we accent. He became less
hot then.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
They said, yeah, me mean, but yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
You heard his hot feelings. They give you free tickets
to movies or what?
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Yeah, I did get free tics.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
The cast gave you the free tickets.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
It's very nice and didn't give me.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
He didn't give you free There we go. There's the
cast of Twister with Megan pep.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Very good, very good movie hits that Jonavan Ben pok.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
This this morning. Joe Biden is not seeking re election because
he's pulling out of the presidential candidacy, and Donald Trump
has responded, what do you reckon? Did he go the
high road and he's got a gag?
Speaker 3 (11:14):
What's he locked him? Has he still got his ear
pillow on his ear?
Speaker 2 (11:18):
He still? I think it's yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
You don't want to weep he saw, do you? No?
Speaker 2 (11:24):
He said, Biden will be remembered as the single worst
president by far, in the history of our country. So
he took the high road.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Check an old man when he's lying down, I reckon. Anyway,
those do say it will affect Trump's chances too, because
he was actually talking up Biden. He's going, oh, no,
he's good. He's a good candidate because he knew he
was going to mow over him and all the debates
and things. So now the Democrats potentially move in a younger,
shinier model and this could actually not play in Trump's favors.
(11:56):
So but mind you, he's got an ear pillow of
so what what you could not script this?
Speaker 2 (12:02):
No, it's I mean, it's nothing if not entertaining.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Who's saw online someone saying they're really enjoying the finale
season of America right now? Oh my god? Yeah, the
Internet outrage the Internet and we will be actually crossing
live to Trump territory, Florida, Orlando, Florida. We've been Voyce
is currently over there now from radio host stranded on
holiday with his family to our US correspondent, Yeah, we'll
(12:26):
get his hot, hot political takes on Biden stepping down.
But the Internet, it likes to get outrage. Although they
always like, oh, the Internet is outraged over something, but
it's a it's a big sweeping statement. I looked. Do
you know five points three billion people are on the Internet.
That's a big statement to say.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
How many are we in the world? Eight billion?
Speaker 3 (12:46):
Yeah, so that means, you know, over three billion. Two
points about two point six billion don't use the internet? Yeah,
two six billion.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
What do they do with their days?
Speaker 3 (12:56):
How do they know what other people's opinions are without
them being shoved down your throat?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Where do they post pictures of their life?
Speaker 3 (13:01):
How do they know how to fix anything without YouTube? Jeez,
they must be living I reckon. They must have to
make their own pornography, wouldn't they? These people with no Internet?
But they're probably leading a happier existence. Magazine there's magazine, Sure,
that's right, But yeah, the Internet outrage we like to
give a headline. Megan, you have to try and figure
(13:22):
out why the Internet would be outraged at this. Now
the headline is Internet outraged over dead fly. Have a brainstorm.
Why do you think the Internet would be outraged over this?
And the food and food you're ooh, you're warm, you
are well, you are warm?
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Okay, the dead flies somewhere it's not supposed to be right.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
You know what, I'm going to give it to you
the word fly activists or you know, discuss it at
more team for ruining flies live.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
He suffered a slow and painful death.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
You are you're kind of in the ballpark now. This
was a story that got the internet completely outraged. In India,
where there are a cup they were at a party
and they were sharing their wonderful money saving tip with
someone else at the party. They were like, what we
do is we wander around with the dead fly in
our pockets and when we go to restaurants, high end restaurants,
(14:12):
once they bring out the meal, we slipped the fly.
And now the person they were telling the story too
then obviously did the sensible thing and took it to
the Internet and he said he was outraged that they
do this, but this gets them free meals, free sometimes
free entire dinners because they then cause a scene.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
They're like, yeah, there's no winning for the hospitality industry
in that scenario because you have even if you think,
even if you know that they planted the fly, you can't.
The customer is always right. You can't say that.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Unless you got them on camera. Get them on camera,
and then that really does there to slap in the
face of the person putting it. You know, you never
want to be caught putting a fly into food. De
that's degrading, it's not a good look.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
So bad.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Yeah, I do go out for dinner if you can't
afford it.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
If you can, that's a good lack life slipped something.
I know you you've been in the hospital industry. You
owned a cafe.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
Yeah, did you.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Ever put anything anyone's food?
Speaker 2 (15:07):
No?
Speaker 3 (15:07):
God, no, not intentionally, but.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
No, I don't think we ever had a hero or
fly complaint or anything like that. A one one complaint
remains in my mind where a woman ordered like it
was like beef cheek on toast, and her complaint was
after she'd eaten most of it was it was too meaty.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Too meaty. So you're like, hold on, let me just
sort that out for you talking out back, spat and
sped on the meal. Did you gave it back to it?
Speaker 2 (15:31):
I was just like, don't don't finish it then? I
mean you ordered literally meat on toast.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
But yeah, to meet the hits.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
That John and Ben podcast, Meghan.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
Now the audience they in trust in Megan. They don't
entrust in their closest friends and family. They missed you
on Instagram and pose their issues to you. This is real.
This is split split me down the middle.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
I don't know what the right answer here is, but
we're going to check it out there and you can
feel free to way in and give advice.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Yeah, because we don't have any helpful advice for this
particular person, so any you can offer would be most appreciated.
It's about employment, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
It is here go, dear Meghan. I'll keep the details
light as I don't want my friend to catch on
to anything. She was made redundant at the beginning of
the year and has been relentlessly applying for jobs, but
hasn't landed any of them. Last week, she told me
she'd applied for a management role at the company I
work for. Coincidentally, I have also thrown my hat in
(16:29):
the ring for the position, and I know for a
fact that I'm one of the lead candidates. She told
me that she's made it to the interview process, but
I'm too nervous to tell her that I have as well.
I'm really tempted to pull out of the running. And
she's one of my best friends and I already have
a job while she doesn't. On the other hand, professionally,
I really want this climb up the ladder. Please help
(16:50):
with any advice. Wheow, Oh, she's I kind of feel like,
if she's a really good friend, couldn't you just go
to her and be like, hey, I've applied to Like,
shall we just write it out and see.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
What you could do? Is you could sabotage her friends
application and be like, oh, I heard she interfere with
her last manager. That's the way she's Well, she stole
the company credit card and brought it high end pillow,
you know, Feather Douvey. INA's at Westfield or something. But
the trouble is, if you still get that job, yeah,
then you cut off all comms.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Okay, right, yeah, I think you're missing the part where
she sees she's one of her best free.
Speaker 3 (17:26):
Yeah, no, this is a really tough personally. I think
I would consider pulling out. You've got a gig. But
you've got a gig, you've.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Got She's trying to climb up the ladder at her company.
This is a great opportunity. Surely your friend would understand
if you just you leave it in the hands of
management to decide who's better for the role.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
Yeah, surely your friend understands as they are forget how
they pay the next two weeks. Yeah, I understand. While
you do this, I get the big question markers. You know,
the friend doesn't guarantee to get the job, so it's
not a and she might have applied for other jobs.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Yeah, because how are you going to feel if you pull
out and then she still doesn't get it? You're like,
I gotta gone.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
We have no answers on this one. What would you
do have you been in this situation? Surely this might
have happened with someone in the know as very specific,
isn't it. It's probably happened to no one in the past.
But if you've got any advice, we would really love it.
On here. You always very helpful. The Hits audience. Oh
one hundred hits four for eighty seven. What would you do?
Would you go for the gig? Would you tell your
(18:28):
friend or would.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
You secretly pull out?
Speaker 3 (18:30):
Yeah, let us know.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
The hits that jonaan Ben podcast TM Megan, this is.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
A friend dilemma. So someone works at a business where
they are going for a role in upper management, but
their best friend has also applied for the same role
and they've both made it through the into interview process.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
However, the best friend who's applied is currently unemployed, has
been so for a number of months.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Was made redundant. But you have a job this person
as a.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Job your best friend doesn't. Do you pull out of
the running to allow your best friend to go and again,
the guarantee is not that the best friend will get
the job.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Do you talk to your friend and say, is it
all right if we both just go for it and
see what happens?
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Megan, I made my sabotage the friend's application idea. That
was just getting the spitball happening in the brain storm,
which didn't fly. I said, you know, you could start
dropping vicious rumors about the friend and chancellor out of
the running, and.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Then you get the job and the friendship's over, and
you what, you never talked to her again.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
But then you could be like, oh no, I didn't
go for it. But then they're like, oh, we've got
no one else because your bloody friend who had the
ramp in the field of the manager. We had to
get rid of hers, orould've given to you. Right, very
elaborate back story.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
I feel like, no matter what, you're going to have
to have some sort of conversation unless you just quietly pull.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Out bess, we're going to get you on here. How
do you solve this issue?
Speaker 10 (19:51):
For the person direction, there's an acid test here, an
acid test? And I said, I said, the person that
already worked for the company, did she know that her
best friend had applied for this position when she did?
In that case, how good a friend is she?
Speaker 3 (20:08):
Okay, you wanted some further deeps are your bears?
Speaker 10 (20:12):
And if she did apply for the position before her
best mate, that's a simple conversation saying.
Speaker 11 (20:19):
Oh my god, I can't believe you're applied. I have
to before you did.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
Now someone just text in bears. So you're doing the
good honor, straightforward approach and having a conversation like a
normal adult so well done. Bears someone's texts in saying, uh,
go for the job and then if you get it,
hire your friend for your old position, not bed that's
(20:46):
what Yeah, spanking on a lot of unknowns though, like.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Oh, thank you for your sloppy seckends you know.
Speaker 3 (20:52):

So I'm a teacher and the deputy principal for our
strength became available at the store I currently worked. I worked,

A welcome back, Ben, who's not in New Zealand. He's

Speaker 1 (23:05):

Speaker 6 (23:06):
Coming to you from the Home of the Free in
the land of Donald Trump's air bandage and the USA.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
In the USA, he's stranded stranded in the USA thanks
to the global internet outage. Now, I'm struggling to get
my head around when was this internet outage four or
five days ago? I don't know how it is delayed
has returned by another four or five days. I can't
(23:33):
do the maths on that, but somehow it has and
he's found himself stuck in Orlando, Florida. You've been over
there for a couple of weeks. Biden has just pulled
out of the presidential race. What have people been saying.
Speaker 6 (23:45):
Well, to be fair, I've been in a lot of
touristy areas, so it hasn't been that much of a chat.
Speaker 7 (23:50):
But every time you turn on.
Speaker 6 (23:51):
The TV, every time you go on social media, it
is everywhere the big presidential race.
Speaker 5 (23:56):
I did hear because I was.
Speaker 6 (23:57):
On a flight from New York to a and when
obviously the assassination attempt went on with Trump, and as
the plane land, I had heard someone behind me go,
someone tried to kill Trump and then he went he's
all right now, and that was that. That's all I've
heard from anyone on the grounds.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
But they didn't seem too faced.
Speaker 5 (24:13):
That were he there?
Speaker 1 (24:14):
That wasn't two face.
Speaker 5 (24:15):
But it's the same in a real tourist this sort
of area.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
Now, what have the tourists been saying as well? What
have they been talking about? What have they been saying
a lot.
Speaker 6 (24:22):
Of people not a lot of people talking about the temperature,
how hot it is along the lines, exchange rates, that
sort of thing.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
It was generally avoiding politics while on holiday.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
Yeah, yeah, have you seen flow Rider over there? The rapper?
Speaker 1 (24:38):

when you work out the flow Rider the rapper his

I think I knew all along, all along? Yeah, Florida.
He's not Florida, right, it's from Miami, I.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
Mean, little mate. Ye all there we have been saying.
Ben I did want to go over to attend the
Trump rallies, the first Trump rallies, So he did that
he was visiting family. We knew the real reason his
family is the Trump family.
Speaker 4 (25:17):
No, well hey no, but you know that's quite it's quite.
Speaker 6 (25:20):
Weird, you know, going around when you do see people
wearing you know, make America Great Again caps or T
shirts and it's not for ironic reasons. It's for people,
you know, quite proud to support Trump.
Speaker 5 (25:31):
So you know, it's one of those things that's.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
You're deep in Trump territory right now? Is there like
is there a.
Speaker 3 (25:36):
Stay at Mary Lago? Aren't you a bloody resort? Were
fifteen discount?
Speaker 6 (25:46):
We're wondering why, you know, why this global it crisis
thing happened?
Speaker 7 (25:50):
And I'm going to put on my daughter see you.
Speaker 6 (25:51):
Because she's got a theory of how this all happened
and why we're still here.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
See you know, hello, I see you know.
Speaker 11 (25:57):
Hi.
Speaker 4 (25:58):

Speaker 4 (26:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (26:04):
No, not not good mate? Now, how because we know
how your dad feels about having to extend your trip
by four days the official death of his credit card? Well,
how was it for you not having to worry about
any of that?
Speaker 13 (26:16):
It's like really good because I was supposed to have
like heaps a test this week that I'm like missing.
So I'm actually feeling pretty good about it because I
can just sit by the pool while all my friends
are at school.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
Idea, jeez, this is ideal for you. Did you manifest
this in some way seeing A?
Speaker 1 (26:32):
I did so.
Speaker 13 (26:33):
The night before we were supposed to go, as we're
all packing up our stuff and Dad was pacing around
making sure that we hadn't forgot anything, I was like, oh,
I really wish we could.
Speaker 14 (26:42):
Just stay a night longer, and he was like, well, yeah, it's.
Speaker 13 (26:44):
Been a great holiday, oh blah blah blah blah, And
I was I just want just one more night, I hope.
And I was telling him, I was like, I'm not
leaving tomorrow, Like, you can't force me to leave, but
obviously I was still going to go. And then the
next morning, they're all on their computers and they're like
what They're like?
Speaker 2 (26:59):
I was like, what's going on?
Speaker 13 (27:00):
A flight's been canceled, And I think that I manifested
it happening. So this is your sign to manifest if
you want something to happen.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Yeah, Well, if you could also manifest your dare to
be able to pay off the credit card with no
issues too.
Speaker 4 (27:15):
Yeah I have.
Speaker 6 (27:17):
I've definitely not manifested this moment, that moment on home
alone when he made his family disappear.
Speaker 5 (27:24):
That's what happened.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
Well, there we go, being boys deep in mega make
America great again, Territory and Flora and Florida.

Speaker 1 (32:38):
The hits that Jonaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
Biden has dropped out of the US presidential race, and
we crossed down to our US correspondent.
Speaker 4 (32:47):
In the USA.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
He strandeds thanks to the global internet outage. He's stranded
in the USA after heading over the end to visit family. Man.
Maybe I was thinking maybe someone from the Internet clicked
on that bloody Indian TA link. You know that you
get text ruined at all for us. But somehow, somehow,
the internet outage that happened on Friday has meant Ben
(33:13):
is not returning to sort of towards the end of
this week. Do you know, Megan, we've been trying to
get our heads around that.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
Yeah, I'm not sure how that works.
Speaker 4 (33:20):
Then, look, I'm trying to get my head around it.
Speaker 6 (33:22):
I'm not sure how it has happened like this, but anyway,
we're going to be going home tomorrow.
Speaker 7 (33:27):
Morning US time through Atlanta, then.
Speaker 6 (33:30):
Through Los Angeles and then hopefully on to New Zealand,
so I'll see some of.
Speaker 7 (33:33):
The world's greatest airports for a few hours.
Speaker 3 (33:36):
We have said, you know, this is what do you do?
What do you do? You take this as bereavement?
Speaker 4 (33:40):
Leave?
Speaker 3 (33:40):
Do you add this on to you? And maybe it's
the death of your credit card that could be the bereavement.
Speaker 4 (33:45):
It's given the death of the credit card.
Speaker 5 (33:47):
As I said earlier, travel insurance.
Speaker 6 (33:49):
But it's a very interesting situation to be a they've
never had anything like this before.
Speaker 7 (33:53):
Apparently you know, oh this hasn't happened before.
Speaker 3 (33:59):
But you still have to cover us, right this really
blind side of us. Maybe it's punishment because I've been
following you on social media. Maybe this is punishment for
embarrassing your family with novelty costumes across America for the
last four nights.
Speaker 4 (34:12):
That's true, I did. I didn't pack my bag full.
Speaker 6 (34:14):
Of costumes or a hot dog costume and a hot
dog in New York an M and M costume.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
How did you fat all those costumes in your suit case?
Speaker 6 (34:22):
You know, well, I sacrificed a lot of clothes years
and now the holidays dragged on a few more days.
I am really running out of stuff quite desperately, and
the New Zealand dollar is not great, so I'm resisting
the urge to buy new stuff.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
He's flying home in a hot dog costume.
Speaker 4 (34:40):
Exactly now.
Speaker 6 (34:41):
I we don't know how this happened or why this happens,
but I have a week theory right now, and I'm
going to put my wife Amanda on who's with.
Speaker 5 (34:47):
Us right now, because I think she jinks it. Man
set the scene final.
Speaker 6 (34:52):
Night of our holiday with visiting family in New York,
where I'd run the family ragged at theme parks. Relentless
schedule made them get there an hour before, an hour
after closing.
Speaker 14 (35:02):
But anyway into the holiday and Amanda hardy folks from
the Green Sun, the.
Speaker 3 (35:06):
State of fly out, Amanda, howdy.
Speaker 14 (35:10):
So yeah, I think I might have jinxed.
Speaker 12 (35:12):
And I'm going to put my hand up and take
claim for this because on the last day I was like, Wow,
this has been such an amazing family holiday.
Speaker 14 (35:19):

to him about ten minutes time. Biden's pulled out of
the US election. Hot political takes from Ben Boyce and
Trump Trump Territory, Florida from ten minutes.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
But my parents came to stay with me over my
two week break, and it's really made me like reassess
my life.
Speaker 3 (37:14):
As an adult. Ray Ray and Waino. Were they helpful
around the house.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
That's an understatement. They found things that I didn't even
know were broken. My dad fixed the toilet seat. He
like scrubbed our stove. He's like out in the GUARDI
mode the lawns several.
Speaker 3 (37:31):
Times, several times over two weeks.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
I didn't do any washings.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
Grasses and growing much at this topic. Year so well,
they like to make themselves feel useful, though when they
come to.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
Stuff, they feel terrible because they're just constantly like working
and year they're going to carry on.
Speaker 3 (37:50):
You're like you do, keep folding, keep binding.
Speaker 2 (37:53):
I was like this t shirt has never been owned
the whole time I've owned it.
Speaker 3 (37:56):
How nice now, producing Taylor, you went to Sydney to
see your.
Speaker 8 (37:59):
Parents Lombardies, pay them a visit and yeah, completely the
same Mega. I reverted back to a six year old
where I forgot how to use my arms and legs,
and like it would be like that obviously cooked me dinner, dessert,
and then it'd be like ten pm and I'd be
a bit peckish. So all I'd have to do is
look at Mom and go, oh, I'm a bit hungry,
(38:19):
and she'd just yell out edge to my dad, make
your daughter some food. So he'd go downstairs and make
me four cruskets with butter and Swiss cheese.
Speaker 3 (38:29):
Weird combo. I wasn't going to criticize him, but battering
to battering is an annoying process.
Speaker 8 (38:36):
Then he'd waddle it back upstairs, give it to me.
Mum would have a bite and then she'd yell back edge.
Speaker 4 (38:42):
Make me.
Speaker 3 (38:44):
It's like living home care, isn't it when they come
and stay?
Speaker 2 (38:47):
But it's weird. You do revert back to being a kid,
and you're like, because I was second, I'm just like mom,
look after me, lift me extra brockets.
Speaker 3 (38:57):
On, let me fold the washes. Stop to put it
for John boys out there, bloody painting gardening.
Speaker 2 (39:03):
It's grown as man, John, I know, I.
Speaker 3 (39:05):
Am a grown ass man. The wholething's spawned off.
Speaker 1 (39:09):
The heads that John and Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (39:12):
Ben is still stuck in the U week say, because
technically a holiday is over, but he is a victim
of the software updates.
Speaker 3 (39:19):
The software update from Friday for Friday. It's Monday. But
we want to rest on that now. You how was
your couple of weeks off? A right mate?
Speaker 2 (39:27):
Very on brand for me. I ended up. You'd be
surprised to hear I was sick when We've.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
Worked together for so many months now, and I've never
known you not to be sick, So it was just
like normal. But you're just being sick from home this
time over the last time.
Speaker 2 (39:40):
Yeah, I got like some sort of flu or something
and my daughter had an ear fiction. So we just
hung out at home miserable for a week or so.
Speaker 3 (39:48):
The moment, I won't lie. It is nice just waking
up when your body says, bruh, it's time to get up,
you know, get up and Georgia day No One had
alarms that that terrible alarm. Here there was nice, it
was lovely.
Speaker 2 (40:02):
What did you get up to?
Speaker 3 (40:04):
Bugger? All? Mate just hung around our mate.
Speaker 2 (40:07):
Ben is like swaning around America at home.
Speaker 3 (40:11):
Did go to the Teddy Swims. He put on a
free concert, Teddy Swims when he was here. This is
just the Friday, our last friday that we're on here. Yeah,
and they were like, you know, get down there, and
uh no you weren't available. You had you were sick.
Probably Ben was flying overseas. So it was just me,
that lone wolf going down representing this best and this
(40:32):
pillar of broadcasting, this program at the Teddy Swims.
Speaker 2 (40:35):
But I did hear about you at this concert?
Speaker 3 (40:38):
What did you do well? Because we met him here
and I was like, well I should maybe in Bryne,
who does the night show here on the Hits. He
had a good joke. He's like, tell Teddy Swims my joke.
He says, do you want to know here is Teddy
Swims joke? Yeah, Teddy Swims. But he also surfs. He
wanted me to say that to him. I didn't. I
didn't say he didn't say.
Speaker 2 (40:58):
I wanted to know what he would say.
Speaker 3 (40:59):
Yeah, I didn't muster that up. I did ask him
if I could ride down with them in the in
his van. Ride Yeah. He politely politely said no, he's listen,
we've got too many people. Then I made Taylor and
me ran down. Producer Taylor and I ran down. But
we got to the got to the concert, and I
had a megaphone trying to get the vibes up. I
(41:20):
felt that was my role vibes officer.
Speaker 2 (41:22):
Were you self appointed hype guy?
Speaker 3 (41:25):
Yeah? Because you just pulled titties there. He's performing to
a whole bunch of stressed out commuters who are probably
waiting for a broken down train to start, trying to
make the way home on a Friday night. I was
well go down as a vibes guy. Turns out he
didn't need it. There was plenty of people there. He
was fine, but we still needed to make use of
the megaphone.
Speaker 4 (41:40):
Hey, Brandy, were you doing Oh my god?
Speaker 14 (41:43):
Hey?

to say thank you. It's such an honor to be
a party of Big Day and I hope, I hope
you're just absolutely crushing it in your marriage and it's
still as beautiful as it was. That was the moment
we made titty phone someone. They had nothing to do
with what I was talking about. Hears Teddy swimps is resky.
