Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Hits Drive with Meddi and PJ.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Thanks to Chemis Werehouse, the Real House of Fragrances. Hello
and welcome into the podcast. It's just me. It's a
little old many all on his lonesome tonight. PJ is sick. Unfortunately,
she's been trying to fight off this cold for a
(00:23):
week while and I think she has got to today
and thought, I can't do it. I can't do it.
I need to stay at home. I think Charlie os
Son might be a little bit sick as well, and
so we see, just chill, babs, just sit at home, relax,
have some broth, soup, whatever it is that gets you healthy.
I don't know. She's probably got some little woo woo
(00:44):
ritual that she does to try and get over a cold.
So it's just me holding down the fort today. That's
not true. Producers here as here as well. Hi, hello him.
It's been quiet today.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
So quiet, and you don't really realize it's like how
loud PJ is until she's not.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
I know it's no, no, no, it's what we love
about it. But you're absolutely right. It's just been a
very chill i'd say understated.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Nothing too BIG's happened.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
No, no, yeah, very chill. I have unfortunately gotten into
So one of our bosses was a way overseas, got engaged.
So cool, very cool. Did you see your finger? Does
she show you her So so our boss got engaged,
but he didn't. He measured her finger or measured her ring,
(01:41):
but accidentally mistyped the measurement and the email ring company,
so the ring was too small. So when he proposed
it was not going on properly. But she was obviously
so excited that she was kind of like, just jam
it on, shut it on. So he jammed it on.
But now she's got it's all like basically cut up,
(02:02):
like swollen. She's got like bits of skin have come
off the side of her finger because it was so tight,
so she had to get resize. Anyway, that was that's
a little side note. But she's come back from overseas
after getting engaged, and she brought back treats for the office,
and there was some. There were some like recent peanut
(02:22):
butter cups. Oh, I had way too many.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
I didn't I always I don't know, Like when you
see snacks out in the office, I'm not sure if
it's like share, if it shared first of all, and
then gets how many can you how many.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Can you take? Two things? One? I dove into it
without even asking if it was a shared thing. I
saw it on the edge of the desks, and I
was like, this isn't someone specifically, this is definitely a
communal thing. But I did. I did take it before
I even asked if it was allowed. And then two
I took. I started with two, and then I went
away and I ate them, and then I went back
(02:54):
about half an hour later, and the packet was still
open and there was still plenty in there, so I
thought I can take two more. I think that's fine.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Plus you missed the shared lunch that we had today,
so you get more of the of the treats.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Yeah, But the issue is now I feel really sick
for meeting too many because I went back for third time.
So I think I had six. I think I had
six peanut butter cups all up. Yeah, it's time to start.
Time to stop anyway. PJ will be back tomorrow. I'm
sure of it. I hope. So I was. It was fine, fine, fine,
It's nice to have someone to like talk to on
(03:25):
the show, but it's still you've still got a good
show in store. We did great, thank you, and that
is because we had some awesome calls this afternoon. So
on the show today, we talk about what did you miss?
What made you miss the big event? There's this tennis
player that is having to miss the Olympics. Will tell
you about that. And then we took your calls on
(03:46):
what made you miss the big event? We played our
favorite occupational stereotyping game, are you could I guess whether
you were a mechanic or not? And we talked about
the pete that you shouldn't own. Someone has an amazing
amount of one particular animal. So we'll go there in
(04:08):
the podcast. Enjoy and yeah, we'll see you tomorrow. Hopefully
PJ will be back. I'm sure she will.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Enjoy many and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
I've made a crucial er. I did say that because
I sung Michael Jackson's Man in the Mirror as my
solo in our sixth one production. I did say that
I might sing it if it wins, and someone has
said I would love Pink to win, but this time
I have to vote for Michael Jackson, as I want
to hear many sing Oh God, what have I done anyway,
if you want to vote, vote text vote to four
four eight seven will play that song out in full.
(04:40):
A little bit later on this hour. A little bit
of an awkward situation today that I wanted to talk about.
I don't do this often. I'm not really a self
care kind of guy. I've only just actually started like
worrying about skincare routines at all, and even then it's
(05:01):
very low level. A little bit of cleanser, a little
bit of moisturizer, and I'm good to go. So I
but I thought to myself today I might treat myself
and go and get a little message today, which I
don't do very often. But it felt like I've been
doing a lot of running since our half marathon, and
my calf's been actually a little bit. I don't know
(05:22):
what I've done. So I thought, I'm gone get a
little message and then I can take care of that.
So I went in and booked and had this really
really nice message, actually very strong, and I'm not my
pain threshold is not great, and so often I have
One time I got a message and the guy said
(05:42):
to me, oh.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
You're very weak.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
I don't think of it to be that brutal with it,
but it sounded quite brutal. Yeah, I don't have a
great pain threshold, but this was really good. He had
the right firmness, but it was still kind of relaxing
as well. Anyway, the message finished and I put my
clothes back on and went to leave, and my shoelaces
(06:05):
were undone, and the guy said to me, you can
go and sit on the seat if you want to
do wipe your shoelaces. No, no, no, no, it's fine. I
can just bend down to do my shoelaces up. And
the next thing I know, he's come over to me
and he goes, don't worry, I'll do it, And so
he's crouched down at my feet and it's like doing
(06:26):
my shoelaces up for me. And I tell you what,
there's nothing, nothing that puts you in your place more
than someone doing something for you as an adult that
is usually only reserved for children. And I just thought
to myself, this is such a lovely thing you're doing
for me. But I do think I can I can't
(06:48):
handle it. Like I'm nearly forty, and I think I
can do my laces up by myself. So I didn't
quite know what to do, and then not only did
he do them up, but my laces are quite long.
I've talked before about how I often get my shoelaces
caught and I trip up over them, and so he
took the laces and he tucked them into my shoes,
(07:11):
and I just felt so infantile in that moment, and
I just thought, you know what, what beautiful service. Not
only did I get a little massage, but I also
got my shoes tied for me as well. Maybe know
if anything like that has ever happened to you. Text
four four to eight six.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Mary J. May MPG the podcast this.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
For your texts a few people saying yes, I had
to have help also getting my shoelaces tied. Although the
people that are getting helper people that have had like
replacements and stuff, which is a very valid reason to
get help tight in your shoelaces. I had no reason
other than I just got off the massage table. But
keep your teach coming in anyway. Four four eight seven, Hey,
(07:59):
huge start to the games. The opening ceremony, of course
for the Paris Olympics kicks off this weekend. But that
doesn't mean that we're not already into a few rounds
of some of some of the competitions. The football, the
men's football team New Zealand men's football team went up
against Guinea this morning at three a m. And one
(08:20):
two one. And the rugby sevens men's rugby sevens team
have won both of their first games, the first one
against Japan and then the second one against South Africa,
so they are through to the quarter finals already, very
very exciting stuff. But I read this really really devastating
story because of course, if you're an athlete, the Olympics
(08:41):
is the kream Dela crem It's the piece of resistance,
right like you want to get desperately to the Olympics.
You want to be able to compete and hopefully get
on that podium. Well, unfortunately for the top ranked tennis player,
Yannick Sinner, he has had to unfortunately pull out of
(09:01):
the Paris Olympics because he's been struck down by Ton Salidis.
He's a twenty two year old from Italy and he
has won the Australian Open in January for his first
Grand Slam title. He moved up to number one in
the ATP rankings last month after reaching the French Open
semi finals. So you would have thought that Paris would
(09:22):
have been a huge opportunity for him. This kid could
have meddled and what an amazing thing to be able
to compete for your country. So how devastating the little
old illness like some Ton Salidis has struck you down
and you're not going to be able to compete at
the Olympic Games this year. Absolutely crushing. So I thought
(09:42):
we could open up the phone lines today, oh eight
hundred the Hits. Get in touch or give us a
call four four eight seven. I would love to know
what was the thing that derailed the big event. Maybe
you were off to a big wedding, Maybe you were
off on an overseas trip. Maybe there was some big
thing you were competing in and then a little thing
happened and you couldn't go. You had to sit this
(10:05):
one out. I would love to know what derailed the
big event. Give us a call, Oh eight hundred the
Hits Right now, We've got some Hell Pizza vouchers to
give away if we get you on Ed.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Maddie and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
It is a way sick this afternoon, but I'm sure
she'll be back tomorrow, but we're taking your calls on oh,
eight hundred the Hits. What You can always text your
stories through to four four eight seven. What made you
miss the big event? Unfortunately, Tom Slidis has struck top
ranked tennis player Yanick Sinner and he is out of
the Paris Olympics. Gutted, absolutely gut. When I was a kid,
(10:40):
when I was a teenager, my family were all heading
away for my great grandfather's birthday and I got the
opportunity when I was at high school to auditioned for
this kid's TV show called The Machine, and it happened
to fall on the same weekend as my great granddad's birthday.
And I was so excited about this opportunity that my
(11:02):
blessing my great granddad, said you stay behind audition for
the show. Don't worry about me, we'll catch up. Another time,
I missed the party and I didn't get the TV
show either, but it was still fun, it was still
with it. So we wanted to know what made you
miss the big event? Give us a call one hundred
the Hits. Cheryl has called up. Hi Cheryl, Hey, Maddie, Peter,

Speaker 5 (11:22):
Oh, we were getting to a family wedding and two
days before the winning my partner got COVID first.

Then we sent her off on another way to the wedding.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
Absolutely gusting serial. And there's nothing you can do, right.
Everyone else is having a good time at the wedding

Ah, Well, I missed my mom My mom's fiftieth birthday
party because I played football and took an elbow to
the face and broke my cheek burner and.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
That's a heart injury.
Speaker 6 (12:37):
Yeah, it was. It was probably the worst of your head.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (12:41):
Played for twenty years, had a few bad ones, and
I miss.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Was Mama that gadded to miss the fiftieth.
Speaker 6 (12:47):
Yeah, a little bit. I showed up and did I
probably need to a hospital? And then she agreed way Yeah.
And then I missed her sixtieth three weeks ago because
I ended up catching cover and off my kids. Oh no,
my wife was fine, they all went. But you know,
I'm that guy who gets it two weeks later or
a week later.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
And mums Mum's two big milestones, Scott, you missed them both.

you so much for giving us a call. Scott, really
appreciate it.
Speaker 6 (13:23):
Cheers, mate, have a good day, you too, PJ.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
The podcast and the election in the US. Is he
turn up? Of course. Joe Biden, the one term president
of the US has stepped down, says he's not running.
He's endorsed his vice president, Kamala Harris for the top job,
and for the first time he's actually spoken about that
(13:48):
decision from the over office. Have he listened to this?
Speaker 7 (13:51):
I believe I reckon as president our leadership in the world.
I visioned for America's future, all merit of a second term,
but nothing, nothing can come in the way of saving
our democracy. That includes personal ambition. So I've decided the
(14:12):
best way forward is the past, the torch for a
new generation.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
He said. I revere this office, but I love my
country more. Watch the space. It's going to get dirty.
I reckon over the next few months ahead of that
November fifth election.
Speaker 8 (14:29):

the moment, but we are in the midst of our

a little bit later on in this hour. But right
now it's time you ah Yes, it's our occupational stereotyping
game Are you are? We play this every week. We
(15:09):
just want to know if we can figure out whether
you are a particular profession or not, whether you do
something for a job or not. And this week we're
going mechanics. Your job is to make me think that
you are a mechanic. We're going to ask you a
few simple questions and then I've got to determine yes
or no, are you a mechanic. Let's go to Holly

Pizza?
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Pizza? I don't know. I don't know why I asked
that question, is if that would help me determine whether

Speaker 2 (17:11):
A pie. He's got to be he's got to be

about your coming your way. Hey, if you have another
profession that you think we should tackle next week for
am I and let us know on four four eight seven?
What profession should we go for it next week.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
Many MPJA the podcast.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
It's a bit of an issue today, and I've had
this issue for a week while we do a meal
delivery service in my household. Just so much easier, so
much nicer to not have to think about what you're
going to cook every week. You get the meals delivered,
you get the recipe cards.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
It's very very good.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
But I have had a little bit of an issue
with our online order. And this has happened a few
times over the last few months, and so I keep
calling the help center and very lovely, very lovely people.
But every time I get to the end of the
phone call, they said we're gonna log the issue, and
then I never hear anything about it. They never call,
they never allure me. And then the same issue, low
(19:16):
and behold will happen about a month later, and then
I have to call all over again. And today I
called up and I was on hold, I swear to
God for about twenty minutes waiting for someone to get
back to me. I managed to get through actually reasonably quickly,
and then I just got that dreaded hold music while
they went and spoke to someone about the issue. And
then I honestly was there for about twenty minutes waiting
(19:38):
for them to come back with a bit of an answer.
And the answer that came back with was basically, call
We're going to log it and we'll let you know.
And I just thought, this is what happens every time
I call you. I don't know that anything is going
to change, but I thought to myself, twenty minutes is
long enough. Imagine being on hold for a lot lot
(19:58):
longer than that. And we know that some of you
out there have massive wait times to get through to
people on the phone. And sometimes you're sitting there going
do I give up? Do I hang up? Do I
keep waiting? Is anyone going to answer my call? And
you listen to the same hold music over and over
and over again. So today on one hundred the hits,
(20:20):
I thought we could try and find the person that
has been on hold the longest. Do you remember a
time when you had to wait for hours maybe to
speak to someone on the phone when you called up
a help center. I want to know who had to
wait the longest. We've got a prize from Chemis Warehouse
up for grabs for the person who manages to wow
(20:42):
us with how long you had to wait. Tell us
the story of how long you had to wait and
why you had to wait, and tell me about the
music that you had to listen to while you did
it as well. Giving me a call. Oh one hundred
the Hits so you can tax through to four four
eight seven. Here's Christina aguilera fighter on the Hits. We'll
take your calls next the podcast, and we're talking wait times.
(21:06):
How long did you have to wait when you gave
a help center a call. I've been trying to deal
with this food delivery service that I do, and honestly,
mine was low level. When I look at the text machine,
twenty minutes I had to wait today, but it's about
the third time that I've had to call them to
deal with the same issue that has still not been resolved.
(21:28):
So I wanted to know. Can we find someone who's
waited the longest? My god, there've been some very long
times on the text machine. Someone said, Hi, I had
to wait two hours. I had to wait ten hours
on hold with the Canadian embassy while in New Zealand,
so I was wake overnight about three hours with working
in come three hours with study link. Someone said, I
(21:49):
married my wife and the Czech Republic who passport needed
a New New Zealand visa, and we were told it
was going to be uploaded and sent to our email
while in check. Four weeks past. It was the last
night before the flight. I ran New Zealand Immigration and
had to wait five hours while listening to New Zealand
music over and over. They said, I Love Loyal by
Dave Dobbin. But Jesus, after an hour it got very
(22:12):
very irritating. Let's go to the phones. Oh one hundred.
They had some maries called us, Hi, Marie.
Speaker 4 (22:17):
Hi, how are you?
Speaker 2 (22:18):
I'm good? How long did you have to wait on hold?
Speaker 4 (22:22):
It was an hour and a half to a fine company.
But that's not the clicker. What it got to seven
o'clock when they're contacting to close and you come up
and said that they're no longer. I was so angry.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
I bit you were. Oh my god, Marie, I mean
what you had to wait until the next day to
give him a call back.
Speaker 4 (22:44):
Yeah, but luckily I've calmed down.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Yeah until until you called me to tell you about it,
to tell me about it, And now it's re sparked
and all over again, isn't it Hey, thanks so much, Marie.
And hour and a half ish, Let's see if mail
can be to that high mail?
Speaker 11 (23:02):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (23:03):
How long do you have to wait?
Speaker 6 (23:04):
Two hours?
Speaker 9 (23:05):
Thirty five minutes?
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Two hours thirty five minutes to who? Who are you
on the whole?
Speaker 7 (23:09):
Who?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Are you on the phone too?
Speaker 6 (23:11):
A government departed?
Speaker 5 (23:13):
Okay, remain anonymous?
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Sure did you at least get some nice music while
you were waiting? Or was it terrible?
Speaker 5 (23:20):
There's only so much elevator music, right?
Speaker 2 (23:25):
What do you do for two and a half hours?
Do you hold the phone up to your ear the
whole time? Do you put it on speaker and go
about your day? What do you do?
Speaker 5 (23:32):
I actually had it sitting on my desk next to
me so I could continue to work.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
But after two hours thirty five I was like.
Speaker 11 (23:40):
I'm done.
Speaker 5 (23:41):
I'm just hung up.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
I bet, And then You're like, wait, did I just
waste two and a half hours of my day and
I didn't even get a result from it? Hey, thank
you so much, Mail, really appreciate your call. Let's go
to Renee. Hi, Renee, Hi, how are you good? How long?
Speaker 6 (23:57):
Four hours?
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Four?
Speaker 10 (24:00):
Yeah?
Speaker 11 (24:00):
You know?
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Who are you trying to get hold of?
Speaker 4 (24:03):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (24:03):
Acc oh?
Speaker 2 (24:05):
My god.
Speaker 10 (24:06):
Oh yeah, what do you do?
Speaker 2 (24:08):
What do you do? Yeah? Right, so pretty important to
get hold of acc right.
Speaker 10 (24:12):
You basically needed to get a client sported, and we basically.
Speaker 9 (24:16):
Passed the phone around through the between am and.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
It would have almost been like a past the parcel game,
like who's going to have the phone? When they finally
actually answer exactly four hours, that is brutal. Renee, Hey, well,
thank you so much. I think you win the game
from the phone machine. We'll get you chem us wherehouse
prize out there, Although Craig has text and said the
longest I had to wait was eight hours. They cut
(24:46):
me off after the first three hours. Then I called back,
same thing again after another three hours. Finally got through
the third time two hours forty five minutes in to
be told I was in the rock department and I'd
have to call them back the next day. Out Rage.
Speaker 8 (25:02):
Maddy and Maddy and the podcasts are way sick today.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
But you got yours truly and produce a series in
the hot seat as well. And earlier in the show
we were talking about weight times when you have to
call a help center, and by god, some of you
had some very very long wait times. Eight hours, Craig
had to wait for brutal. Brutal. But you were telling
me that your mum used to work in a call center. Yes,
she did, and she had a fun fact for you
(25:31):
which I was blown away by.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
Yeah, I didn't know this until she started working there
and came home and told me. But apparently, and this
might not be for all of them, but for the
call center that she worked at, if they answer your
call and then they pop you on hold to go
talk to the supervisor or check on your question, they
can actually hear you.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
They can still hear you. And my mom said that.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
Lots of people would go to the toilet. They would complain, oh, yeah,
I've been on hold, and Mom's like, well, I'm not
going to come back to you any time soon. And
imagine having to go back when they're on the toilet.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
And go, hello, hey, do you want to flush?
Speaker 3 (26:07):
Sure, So just be wary that maybe you're wherever you're
calling can hear They.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Might be able to hear you. Apparently I did look
it up. If you've called and they haven't actually answered
the phone, they can't hear you. But if they've already
answered the phone and then put you on hold, or
put you on mute. That is when they can apparently
still hear you, but you can mute yourself on your end.
That's what I recommend absolutely, if you've got to go
to the toilet, mute yourself yourself for everyone's bene a fit.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Thank you so much, Mary and many and PJ.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
The podcasts Froll Summer, Taelesleift on the Heads with Mady
and PJ for your Thursday night tell the people producers
HEREI and just come on and said, I've got a
fun fit for you if you want to if you
want to say it.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
Okay, Well that's the song that she opens the Eerror's
tool with.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Just if you're wondering, I wasn't one.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
It's just gone ten past five on the Hits and
I was reading a really interesting article today. A vet
in the in the UK has revealed the five animals
he would never have as a pet. He says he's
worked in a vet clinic long enough to know all
of the issues that certain pets can have, and there
(27:24):
are just some pets that he says, don't do it.
It's not worth the trouble. It's more more hassle than
it's than it's good for so I thought, well, what
are these pets? I'm going to take you through the
five that he thinks don't even bother onwing, he says.
The first pet is a parrot. He said having a
(27:44):
parrot means never having a non stick sauce pan again, Apparently,
when those non stick pans are heated, the coating releases
a gas which can be fatal to parrots. I had
no idea, he said. He doesn't that the birds can
make highly rewarding pets, and that it would be very
cool to have an animal that can talk back to you.
(28:05):
But he said, I just think it's extremely difficult to
provide enough space and stimulation for a species that would
normally have the freedom to fly and explore a very
rainforest habitat. He said. Number two for me is a mouse.
Although they can live longer if they're well cared for
and lucky, the average mouse only lives for one to
(28:26):
two years. He said. I've had a lot of guinea
pigs over the years, and you grow very attached to them.
So if you've got to say goodbye to a pet
mouse after a year or two, he said, it can
be very very hard on people. He said. The third
pet may surprise some people, He said, rabbits. He said,
they just don't make suitable pets. He said, contrary to
what people may assume, they don't really make great children's pets.
(28:49):
There are a prey species, so they're naturally very timid.
They don't always enjoy being held enough, very fragile. They
kick and they fall out of your arms from a
height onto the floor. It's not unheard of for them
to break bones when you drop them as well, he said.
Number four, the fourth animal that he says, don't bother owning.
(29:09):
I don't know. I don't know that we would ever
be able to own these pets in New Zealand. A monkey,
He said, Why is he talking about monkeys as a pet?
Nobody has a monkey is a pet, and there's a
reason for it. He said. They are just too much work,
too much hassle. That's your monkey noise? Great, I love it.
(29:31):
And he said number five. The fifth and final animal, ferrets.
He said, they're cheeky, funny, entertaining pets, but they are
an acquiet taste. They really really stink, and they have
nasty bites if they lock onto your hand. They're highly intelligent,
and need lots of interaction and lots of space. That
is really not for everyone. So there you go. The
(29:52):
five pets that there's British Vet says, do not bother
owning too much hassle. But I wanted to know on
the phones today, Oh Andre, oh wite hundred the hits,
or you can text us to four four eight seven.
Have you owned any of those five pets and how
did it go? Or did you find another pet that
you desperately wanted to own that you just realized after
(30:14):
a wee while it wasn't working, it wasn't worth the
hassle of owning this particular pet. Give us a call,
oh Wite, hundred the hits or text through to four
four eighty seven. We've got some chemists warehouse prizes up
for grabs if we get you on air the podcast. Yeah,
it's the way sick at the moment, but I'm sure
she'll be back tomorrow. And in the meantime we're talking pets,
(30:35):
specifically the pets that you shouldn't own. A VET in
the UK has said there are five specific pets he
just would not have He said, parrots, monkeys, mice, rabbits
and ferrets. The five pets. He just says more trouble
than they're worth. So we wanted to know from you.
(30:57):
A do you own any of those five pets? Or
B is the repet that you got that after a
week while you just thought nat too hard? Too hard basket?
Hamish is caught up on nine hundred of the hits.
Get it Hamish?
Speaker 1 (31:09):
Hello, good, how are you?
Speaker 10 (31:11):
You're not bad?
Speaker 2 (31:12):
What was the pet?
Speaker 10 (31:14):
Well, when my life and I got married, she wanted
a dog and I wanted a cat, so we ended
up getting.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Mighty How does that happen?
Speaker 10 (31:23):
It's something we could both agree.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Right, that's comfroment. That's marriage, isn't it? Hamish? Compromen? And
what were they like? Because the vet in this particular
story I was reading says, ugh, no, they only they
die after like a year, so you don't even get
them for very long year.
Speaker 10 (31:40):
Well, we had two lots and they both lived almost
two years, and each of them had totally different personalities
and it was very easy to get a text to them.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
Really, so they actually you actually can notice a different
personality in the mice.
Speaker 10 (31:55):
Absolutely, would you get them again? Yeah? I used to
have them on I was a little as well. So yeah,
but my wife found her too devastating when they died.
So we've got budgies.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
How are the budgies.
Speaker 6 (32:14):
Not too bad?
Speaker 10 (32:14):
Not bad?
Speaker 2 (32:15):
Okay, hey, thanks so much. Yeah, well I'm glad to
hear it. Thanks, as we're going to keive us a
wearehouse prize out for you. Let's go to and THEA

Speaker 11 (32:29):
I just put this work and got home.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
Love it. Tell me about the pets.
Speaker 11 (32:34):
When my daughter was about four or five years old,
we had pet rabbits.
Speaker 2 (32:38):
Okay, how were they because this vet, this vet says
they're actually really timid and you can't hold them and
they're shy, and they're actually not very good pets.
Speaker 11 (32:49):
No, that's absolute lies. We had seven of them and
they were fluffy, long, long eared rabbits and we loved
them and they loved being handled and cuddled.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
Cute. So you're doing again in a heartbeat. Absolutely, have
you got any at the moment.
Speaker 11 (33:07):
No, we've got about three cats.

Speaker 11 (33:36):
Who?
Speaker 9 (33:36):
No, I'm not.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
Why have you got sixteen of the buggers?
Speaker 9 (33:40):
My husband's got a little bit of an obsession. And yeah,
because there's long term planned.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
So what do you do with me? What do you doing?
The moise?
Speaker 9 (33:48):

Speaker 9 (34:03):
We've got one that talks. We can't open the door
without her saying hello, Hello. But yeah, mainly, Yeah, that's
a pretty cool. That's pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (34:13):
But okay, I'm kind to say this. Vinces don't do it.
But you're with sixteen of them. I'm assuming you're saying
it's absolutely fine.
Speaker 9 (34:20):
Well, we're having fun.
Speaker 2 (34:23):
I love it wild. Thanks Nina, really appreciate the call
this afternoon.
Speaker 9 (34:27):
It is no problem.
Speaker 2 (34:28):
Someone I ticked in and said we owned a monkey
when we were in Cambodia. Crazy, she said, she seemed
to only like me and follow me everywhere. She wasn't
so keen on her.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
Guy Many And the podcast, Oh.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
People's Poll, the People's Pole, everybody comes together.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
It's the People's Pole.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
Yep. Every day we come with a what is often
a reasonably trivial topic, something that we want you to
weigh in on, and you can text your thoughts to
four four eight seven. We love getting your opinion on things.
And today's People Poll topic is inspired by something that
happened in the office today. One of our bosses has
been away on holiday overseas. She's been in Hawaii, very nice,
(35:09):
very nice, And she got back today and came into
the office with some goodies. There were some gummy beers
that came into the office. There were some peanut butter
cuts that also came into the office, and they got
put on a communal table for all of us to eat.
And I thought to myself, how lovely, how nice had
our boss has done this for us? But I wondered,
is this the norm? Is this what you're meant to
(35:31):
do when you go away on holiday? Are you meant
to come back with something for the office to enjoy together.
I'll tell you what I did bloody enjoy them too.
I had a whole handful of gummy beers, and then
I went back for not seconds, but thirds of the
Reese's peanut butter cuts. Well, they were just sitting there.
They were just sitting there and no one else was
eating them, so I thought, my god, I'm gonna eat them.
(35:51):
But I wondered today for the People's Pole, and you
can teach your thoughts through to four four eight seven all.
We put it up on our Instagram story as well
the hits drive on Instagram and Facebook. When you go
on a holiday, particularly in overseas holiday, is it a
requirement that you should bring some treats back for the office?
Speaker 8 (36:09):
Madi and PJ the podcast, The Pole's.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
Poll, the People's Pole, everybody comes together.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
It's the people.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
Yes, we do this every night. We want you to
weigh in with your thoughts on a particular topic. And
today's is what is the requirement when you come back
from an overseas holiday? Are you expected to bring some
treats back for the office. Our boss has been away
over in Hawaii and came back with some lovely gummy
beers and some peanut butter cups. I'll tell you what.
(36:43):
I help myself. I help myself more than once. I
help myself more than twice. I think I went back
for thirds with the peanut buttercups, and so we wanted
to know from you. What do you think is it
a requirement to bring something back for the office when
you go away on a holiday. You can text your
thoughts through to four four eight seven. We've also put
it up on our Instagram page. Haven't we produce a heer?
(37:04):
Yes we have.
Speaker 3 (37:05):
I've got some results. Okay, great taught me through it
first of all before I read out the pole results.
A couple of weeks ago, you and PJ went on
my week's holiday. Yes, now, you didn't go overseas.
Speaker 2 (37:15):
I didn't. But PJ went to Australia correct for a week? Yes?
Speaker 3 (37:18):
Did she bring us back anything?
Speaker 2 (37:20):
She got nothing? Nothing, There was no not even a
koala inside a chocolate koala. Insight.
Speaker 3 (37:26):
I think when it's your small team, you should bring
something back from bost.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
Okay, well noted for the next time I go on holiday.
What is the Instagram poll suggesting at this point? What
do people say? All right?
Speaker 3 (37:38):
So actually sixty four percent said yes.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
You have to you have to bring something back.
Speaker 3 (37:43):
And only thirty six think that you don't. So PJ, did.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
You hear that? Well, the people of the people have spoken.
I'd say the majority of people on the text machine
are saying, yes as well, you've got to bring something back.
A couple of nose chucked in the air as well.
I always mean to I have the best of intentions
to bring something back, but you know me, my memory
(38:07):
is shot to pieces, and so I will always always forget.
But I'm gonna put it in there. I'm gonna put
it in the back of my little mind next time
I go on and overseas holiday bring back it at
least a little toddler.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (38:20):
I think it depends how big the place, how many
people are in the place that you work in as well,
if it's a really big office, how many things do
you have to bring exactly?
Speaker 2 (38:28):
But a small little team, yes, me, you and PJ
always something. I think I can bring back a top.
Speaker 1 (38:34):
Ro many and PJ the podcast. That's
The Hits Drive with Meddi and PJ.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Thanks to Chemis Werehouse, the Real House of Fragrances. Hello
and welcome into the podcast. It's just me. It's a
little old many all on his lonesome tonight. PJ is sick. Unfortunately,
she's been trying to fight off this cold for a
(00:23):
week while and I think she has got to today
and thought, I can't do it. I can't do it.
I need to stay at home. I think Charlie os
Son might be a little bit sick as well, and
so we see, just chill, babs, just sit at home, relax,
have some broth, soup, whatever it is that gets you healthy.
I don't know. She's probably got some little woo woo
(00:44):
ritual that she does to try and get over a cold.
So it's just me holding down the fort today. That's
not true. Producers here as here as well. Hi, hello him.
It's been quiet today.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
So quiet, and you don't really realize it's like how
loud PJ is until she's not.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
I know it's no, no, no, it's what we love
about it. But you're absolutely right. It's just been a
very chill i'd say understated.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Nothing too BIG's happened.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
No, no, yeah, very chill. I have unfortunately gotten into
So one of our bosses was a way overseas, got engaged.
So cool, very cool. Did you see your finger? Does
she show you her So so our boss got engaged,
but he didn't. He measured her finger or measured her ring,
(01:41):
but accidentally mistyped the measurement and the email ring company,
so the ring was too small. So when he proposed
it was not going on properly. But she was obviously
so excited that she was kind of like, just jam
it on, shut it on. So he jammed it on.
But now she's got it's all like basically cut up,
(02:02):
like swollen. She's got like bits of skin have come
off the side of her finger because it was so tight,
so she had to get resize. Anyway, that was that's
a little side note. But she's come back from overseas
after getting engaged, and she brought back treats for the office,
and there was some. There were some like recent peanut
(02:22):
butter cups. Oh, I had way too many.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
I didn't I always I don't know, Like when you
see snacks out in the office, I'm not sure if
it's like share, if it shared first of all, and
then gets how many can you how many.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Can you take? Two things? One? I dove into it
without even asking if it was a shared thing. I
saw it on the edge of the desks, and I
was like, this isn't someone specifically, this is definitely a
communal thing. But I did. I did take it before
I even asked if it was allowed. And then two
I took. I started with two, and then I went
away and I ate them, and then I went back
(02:54):
about half an hour later, and the packet was still
open and there was still plenty in there, so I
thought I can take two more. I think that's fine.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Plus you missed the shared lunch that we had today,
so you get more of the of the treats.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Yeah, But the issue is now I feel really sick
for meeting too many because I went back for third time.
So I think I had six. I think I had
six peanut butter cups all up. Yeah, it's time to start.
Time to stop anyway. PJ will be back tomorrow. I'm
sure of it. I hope. So I was. It was fine, fine, fine,
It's nice to have someone to like talk to on
(03:25):
the show, but it's still you've still got a good
show in store. We did great, thank you, and that
is because we had some awesome calls this afternoon. So
on the show today, we talk about what did you miss?
What made you miss the big event? There's this tennis
player that is having to miss the Olympics. Will tell
you about that. And then we took your calls on
(03:46):
what made you miss the big event? We played our
favorite occupational stereotyping game, are you could I guess whether
you were a mechanic or not? And we talked about
the pete that you shouldn't own. Someone has an amazing
amount of one particular animal. So we'll go there in
(04:08):
the podcast. Enjoy and yeah, we'll see you tomorrow. Hopefully
PJ will be back. I'm sure she will.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Enjoy many and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
I've made a crucial er. I did say that because
I sung Michael Jackson's Man in the Mirror as my
solo in our sixth one production. I did say that
I might sing it if it wins, and someone has
said I would love Pink to win, but this time
I have to vote for Michael Jackson, as I want
to hear many sing Oh God, what have I done anyway,
if you want to vote, vote text vote to four
four eight seven will play that song out in full.
(04:40):
A little bit later on this hour. A little bit
of an awkward situation today that I wanted to talk about.
I don't do this often. I'm not really a self
care kind of guy. I've only just actually started like
worrying about skincare routines at all, and even then it's
(05:01):
very low level. A little bit of cleanser, a little
bit of moisturizer, and I'm good to go. So I
but I thought to myself today I might treat myself
and go and get a little message today, which I
don't do very often. But it felt like I've been
doing a lot of running since our half marathon, and
my calf's been actually a little bit. I don't know
(05:22):
what I've done. So I thought, I'm gone get a
little message and then I can take care of that.
So I went in and booked and had this really
really nice message, actually very strong, and I'm not my
pain threshold is not great, and so often I have
One time I got a message and the guy said
(05:42):
to me, oh.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
You're very weak.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
I don't think of it to be that brutal with it,
but it sounded quite brutal. Yeah, I don't have a
great pain threshold, but this was really good. He had
the right firmness, but it was still kind of relaxing
as well. Anyway, the message finished and I put my
clothes back on and went to leave, and my shoelaces
(06:05):
were undone, and the guy said to me, you can
go and sit on the seat if you want to
do wipe your shoelaces. No, no, no, no, it's fine. I
can just bend down to do my shoelaces up. And
the next thing I know, he's come over to me
and he goes, don't worry, I'll do it, And so
he's crouched down at my feet and it's like doing
(06:26):
my shoelaces up for me. And I tell you what,
there's nothing, nothing that puts you in your place more
than someone doing something for you as an adult that
is usually only reserved for children. And I just thought
to myself, this is such a lovely thing you're doing
for me. But I do think I can I can't
(06:48):
handle it. Like I'm nearly forty, and I think I
can do my laces up by myself. So I didn't
quite know what to do, and then not only did
he do them up, but my laces are quite long.
I've talked before about how I often get my shoelaces
caught and I trip up over them, and so he
took the laces and he tucked them into my shoes,
(07:11):
and I just felt so infantile in that moment, and
I just thought, you know what, what beautiful service. Not
only did I get a little massage, but I also
got my shoes tied for me as well. Maybe know
if anything like that has ever happened to you. Text
four four to eight six.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Mary J. May MPG the podcast this.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
For your texts a few people saying yes, I had
to have help also getting my shoelaces tied. Although the
people that are getting helper people that have had like
replacements and stuff, which is a very valid reason to
get help tight in your shoelaces. I had no reason
other than I just got off the massage table. But
keep your teach coming in anyway. Four four eight seven, Hey,
(07:59):
huge start to the games. The opening ceremony, of course
for the Paris Olympics kicks off this weekend. But that
doesn't mean that we're not already into a few rounds
of some of some of the competitions. The football, the
men's football team New Zealand men's football team went up
against Guinea this morning at three a m. And one
(08:20):
two one. And the rugby sevens men's rugby sevens team
have won both of their first games, the first one
against Japan and then the second one against South Africa,
so they are through to the quarter finals already, very
very exciting stuff. But I read this really really devastating
story because of course, if you're an athlete, the Olympics
(08:41):
is the kream Dela crem It's the piece of resistance,
right like you want to get desperately to the Olympics.
You want to be able to compete and hopefully get
on that podium. Well, unfortunately for the top ranked tennis player,
Yannick Sinner, he has had to unfortunately pull out of
(09:01):
the Paris Olympics because he's been struck down by Ton Salidis.
He's a twenty two year old from Italy and he
has won the Australian Open in January for his first
Grand Slam title. He moved up to number one in
the ATP rankings last month after reaching the French Open
semi finals. So you would have thought that Paris would
(09:22):
have been a huge opportunity for him. This kid could
have meddled and what an amazing thing to be able
to compete for your country. So how devastating the little
old illness like some Ton Salidis has struck you down
and you're not going to be able to compete at
the Olympic Games this year. Absolutely crushing. So I thought
(09:42):
we could open up the phone lines today, oh eight
hundred the Hits. Get in touch or give us a
call four four eight seven. I would love to know
what was the thing that derailed the big event. Maybe
you were off to a big wedding, Maybe you were
off on an overseas trip. Maybe there was some big
thing you were competing in and then a little thing
happened and you couldn't go. You had to sit this
(10:05):
one out. I would love to know what derailed the
big event. Give us a call, Oh eight hundred the
Hits Right now, We've got some Hell Pizza vouchers to
give away if we get you on Ed.

stories through to four four eight seven. What made you
miss the big event? Unfortunately, Tom Slidis has struck top
ranked tennis player Yanick Sinner and he is out of
the Paris Olympics. Gutted, absolutely gut. When I was a kid,
(10:40):
when I was a teenager, my family were all heading
away for my great grandfather's birthday and I got the
opportunity when I was at high school to auditioned for
this kid's TV show called The Machine, and it happened
to fall on the same weekend as my great granddad's birthday.
And I was so excited about this opportunity that my
(11:02):
blessing my great granddad, said you stay behind audition for
the show. Don't worry about me, we'll catch up. Another time,
I missed the party and I didn't get the TV
show either, but it was still fun, it was still
with it. So we wanted to know what made you

The podcast and the election in the US. Is he
turn up? Of course. Joe Biden, the one term president
of the US has stepped down, says he's not running.
He's endorsed his vice president, Kamala Harris for the top job,
and for the first time he's actually spoken about that
(13:48):
decision from the over office. Have he listened to this?
Speaker 7 (13:51):
I believe I reckon as president our leadership in the world.
I visioned for America's future, all merit of a second term,
but nothing, nothing can come in the way of saving
our democracy. That includes personal ambition. So I've decided the
(14:12):
best way forward is the past, the torch for a
new generation.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
He said. I revere this office, but I love my
country more. Watch the space. It's going to get dirty.
I reckon over the next few months ahead of that
November fifth election.

profession that you think we should tackle next week for
am I and let us know on four four eight seven?
What profession should we go for it next week.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
Many MPJA the podcast.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
It's a bit of an issue today, and I've had
this issue for a week while we do a meal
delivery service in my household. Just so much easier, so
much nicer to not have to think about what you're
going to cook every week. You get the meals delivered,
you get the recipe cards.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
It's very very good.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
But I have had a little bit of an issue
with our online order. And this has happened a few
times over the last few months, and so I keep
calling the help center and very lovely, very lovely people.
But every time I get to the end of the
phone call, they said we're gonna log the issue, and
then I never hear anything about it. They never call,
they never allure me. And then the same issue, low
(19:16):
and behold will happen about a month later, and then
I have to call all over again. And today I
called up and I was on hold, I swear to
God for about twenty minutes waiting for someone to get
back to me. I managed to get through actually reasonably quickly,
and then I just got that dreaded hold music while
they went and spoke to someone about the issue. And
then I honestly was there for about twenty minutes waiting
(19:38):
for them to come back with a bit of an answer.
And the answer that came back with was basically, call
We're going to log it and we'll let you know.
And I just thought, this is what happens every time
I call you. I don't know that anything is going
to change, but I thought to myself, twenty minutes is
long enough. Imagine being on hold for a lot lot
(19:58):
longer than that. And we know that some of you
out there have massive wait times to get through to
people on the phone. And sometimes you're sitting there going
do I give up? Do I hang up? Do I
keep waiting? Is anyone going to answer my call? And
you listen to the same hold music over and over
and over again. So today on one hundred the hits,
(20:20):
I thought we could try and find the person that
has been on hold the longest. Do you remember a
time when you had to wait for hours maybe to
speak to someone on the phone when you called up
a help center. I want to know who had to
wait the longest. We've got a prize from Chemis Warehouse
up for grabs for the person who manages to wow
(20:42):
us with how long you had to wait. Tell us
the story of how long you had to wait and
why you had to wait, and tell me about the
music that you had to listen to while you did
it as well. Giving me a call. Oh one hundred
the Hits so you can tax through to four four
eight seven. Here's Christina aguilera fighter on the Hits. We'll
take your calls next the podcast, and we're talking wait times.
(21:06):
How long did you have to wait when you gave
a help center a call. I've been trying to deal
with this food delivery service that I do, and honestly,
mine was low level. When I look at the text machine,
twenty minutes I had to wait today, but it's about
the third time that I've had to call them to
deal with the same issue that has still not been resolved.
(21:28):
So I wanted to know. Can we find someone who's
waited the longest? My god, there've been some very long
times on the text machine. Someone said, Hi, I had
to wait two hours. I had to wait ten hours
on hold with the Canadian embassy while in New Zealand,
so I was wake overnight about three hours with working
in come three hours with study link. Someone said, I
(21:49):
married my wife and the Czech Republic who passport needed
a New New Zealand visa, and we were told it
was going to be uploaded and sent to our email
while in check. Four weeks past. It was the last
night before the flight. I ran New Zealand Immigration and
had to wait five hours while listening to New Zealand
music over and over. They said, I Love Loyal by
Dave Dobbin. But Jesus, after an hour it got very
(22:12):
very irritating. Let's go to the phones. Oh one hundred.
They had some maries called us, Hi, Marie.
Speaker 4 (22:17):
Hi, how are you?
Speaker 2 (22:18):
I'm good? How long did you have to wait on hold?
Speaker 4 (22:22):
It was an hour and a half to a fine company.
But that's not the clicker. What it got to seven
o'clock when they're contacting to close and you come up
and said that they're no longer. I was so angry.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
I bit you were. Oh my god, Marie, I mean
what you had to wait until the next day to
give him a call back.
Speaker 4 (22:44):
Yeah, but luckily I've calmed down.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Yeah until until you called me to tell you about it,
to tell me about it, And now it's re sparked
and all over again, isn't it Hey, thanks so much, Marie.
And hour and a half ish, Let's see if mail
can be to that high mail?
Speaker 11 (23:02):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (23:03):
How long do you have to wait?
Speaker 6 (23:04):
Two hours?
Speaker 9 (23:05):
Thirty five minutes?
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Two hours thirty five minutes to who? Who are you
on the whole?
Speaker 7 (23:09):
Who?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Are you on the phone too?
Speaker 6 (23:11):
A government departed?
Speaker 5 (23:13):
Okay, remain anonymous?
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Sure did you at least get some nice music while
you were waiting? Or was it terrible?
Speaker 5 (23:20):
There's only so much elevator music, right?
Speaker 2 (23:25):
What do you do for two and a half hours?
Do you hold the phone up to your ear the
whole time? Do you put it on speaker and go
about your day? What do you do?
Speaker 5 (23:32):
I actually had it sitting on my desk next to
me so I could continue to work.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
But after two hours thirty five I was like.
Speaker 11 (23:40):
I'm done.
Speaker 5 (23:41):
I'm just hung up.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
I bet, And then You're like, wait, did I just
waste two and a half hours of my day and
I didn't even get a result from it? Hey, thank
you so much, Mail, really appreciate your call. Let's go
to Renee. Hi, Renee, Hi, how are you good? How long?
Speaker 6 (23:57):
Four hours?
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Four?
Speaker 10 (24:00):
Yeah?
Speaker 11 (24:00):
You know?
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Who are you trying to get hold of?
Speaker 4 (24:03):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (24:03):
Acc oh?
Speaker 2 (24:05):
My god.
Speaker 10 (24:06):
Oh yeah, what do you do?
Speaker 2 (24:08):
What do you do? Yeah? Right, so pretty important to
get hold of acc right.
Speaker 10 (24:12):
You basically needed to get a client sported, and we basically.
Speaker 9 (24:16):
Passed the phone around through the between am and.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
It would have almost been like a past the parcel game,
like who's going to have the phone? When they finally
actually answer exactly four hours, that is brutal. Renee, Hey, well,
thank you so much. I think you win the game
from the phone machine. We'll get you chem us wherehouse
prize out there, Although Craig has text and said the
longest I had to wait was eight hours. They cut
(24:46):
me off after the first three hours. Then I called back,
same thing again after another three hours. Finally got through
the third time two hours forty five minutes in to
be told I was in the rock department and I'd
have to call them back the next day. Out Rage.
Speaker 8 (25:02):
Maddy and Maddy and the podcasts are way sick today.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
But you got yours truly and produce a series in
the hot seat as well. And earlier in the show
we were talking about weight times when you have to
call a help center, and by god, some of you
had some very very long wait times. Eight hours, Craig
had to wait for brutal. Brutal. But you were telling
me that your mum used to work in a call center. Yes,
she did, and she had a fun fact for you
(25:31):
which I was blown away by.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
Yeah, I didn't know this until she started working there
and came home and told me. But apparently, and this
might not be for all of them, but for the
call center that she worked at, if they answer your
call and then they pop you on hold to go
talk to the supervisor or check on your question, they
can actually hear you.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
They can still hear you. And my mom said that.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
Lots of people would go to the toilet. They would complain, oh, yeah,
I've been on hold, and Mom's like, well, I'm not
going to come back to you any time soon. And
imagine having to go back when they're on the toilet.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
And go, hello, hey, do you want to flush?
Speaker 3 (26:07):
Sure, So just be wary that maybe you're wherever you're
calling can hear They.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Might be able to hear you. Apparently I did look
it up. If you've called and they haven't actually answered
the phone, they can't hear you. But if they've already
answered the phone and then put you on hold, or
put you on mute. That is when they can apparently
still hear you, but you can mute yourself on your end.
That's what I recommend absolutely, if you've got to go
to the toilet, mute yourself yourself for everyone's bene a fit.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Thank you so much, Mary and many and PJ.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
The podcasts Froll Summer, Taelesleift on the Heads with Mady
and PJ for your Thursday night tell the people producers
HEREI and just come on and said, I've got a
fun fit for you if you want to if you
want to say it.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
Okay, Well that's the song that she opens the Eerror's
tool with.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Just if you're wondering, I wasn't one.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
It's just gone ten past five on the Hits and
I was reading a really interesting article today. A vet
in the in the UK has revealed the five animals
he would never have as a pet. He says he's
worked in a vet clinic long enough to know all
of the issues that certain pets can have, and there
(27:24):
are just some pets that he says, don't do it.
It's not worth the trouble. It's more more hassle than
it's than it's good for so I thought, well, what
are these pets? I'm going to take you through the
five that he thinks don't even bother onwing, he says.
The first pet is a parrot. He said having a
(27:44):
parrot means never having a non stick sauce pan again, Apparently,
when those non stick pans are heated, the coating releases
a gas which can be fatal to parrots. I had
no idea, he said. He doesn't that the birds can
make highly rewarding pets, and that it would be very
cool to have an animal that can talk back to you.
(28:05):
But he said, I just think it's extremely difficult to
provide enough space and stimulation for a species that would
normally have the freedom to fly and explore a very
rainforest habitat. He said. Number two for me is a mouse.
Although they can live longer if they're well cared for
and lucky, the average mouse only lives for one to
(28:26):
two years. He said. I've had a lot of guinea
pigs over the years, and you grow very attached to them.
So if you've got to say goodbye to a pet
mouse after a year or two, he said, it can
be very very hard on people. He said. The third
pet may surprise some people, He said, rabbits. He said,
they just don't make suitable pets. He said, contrary to
what people may assume, they don't really make great children's pets.
(28:49):
There are a prey species, so they're naturally very timid.
They don't always enjoy being held enough, very fragile. They
kick and they fall out of your arms from a
height onto the floor. It's not unheard of for them
to break bones when you drop them as well, he said.
Number four, the fourth animal that he says, don't bother owning.
(29:09):
I don't know. I don't know that we would ever
be able to own these pets in New Zealand. A monkey,
He said, Why is he talking about monkeys as a pet?
Nobody has a monkey is a pet, and there's a
reason for it. He said. They are just too much work,
too much hassle. That's your monkey noise? Great, I love it.
(29:31):
And he said number five. The fifth and final animal, ferrets.
He said, they're cheeky, funny, entertaining pets, but they are
an acquiet taste. They really really stink, and they have
nasty bites if they lock onto your hand. They're highly intelligent,
and need lots of interaction and lots of space. That
is really not for everyone. So there you go. The
(29:52):
five pets that there's British Vet says, do not bother
owning too much hassle. But I wanted to know on
the phones today, Oh Andre, oh wite hundred the hits,
or you can text us to four four eight seven.
Have you owned any of those five pets and how
did it go? Or did you find another pet that
you desperately wanted to own that you just realized after
(30:14):
a wee while it wasn't working, it wasn't worth the
hassle of owning this particular pet. Give us a call,
oh Wite, hundred the hits or text through to four
four eighty seven. We've got some chemists warehouse prizes up
for grabs if we get you on air the podcast. Yeah,
it's the way sick at the moment, but I'm sure
she'll be back tomorrow. And in the meantime we're talking pets,
(30:35):
specifically the pets that you shouldn't own. A VET in
the UK has said there are five specific pets he
just would not have He said, parrots, monkeys, mice, rabbits
and ferrets. The five pets. He just says more trouble
than they're worth. So we wanted to know from you.
(30:57):
A do you own any of those five pets? Or
B is the repet that you got that after a
week while you just thought nat too hard? Too hard basket?
Hamish is caught up on nine hundred of the hits.
Get it Hamish?
Speaker 1 (31:09):
Hello, good, how are you?
Speaker 10 (31:11):
You're not bad?
Speaker 2 (31:12):
What was the pet?
Speaker 10 (31:14):
Well, when my life and I got married, she wanted
a dog and I wanted a cat, so we ended
up getting.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Mighty How does that happen?
Speaker 10 (31:23):
It's something we could both agree.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Right, that's comfroment. That's marriage, isn't it? Hamish? Compromen? And
what were they like? Because the vet in this particular
story I was reading says, ugh, no, they only they
die after like a year, so you don't even get
them for very long year.
Speaker 10 (31:40):
Well, we had two lots and they both lived almost
two years, and each of them had totally different personalities
and it was very easy to get a text to them.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
Really, so they actually you actually can notice a different
personality in the mice.
Speaker 10 (31:55):
Absolutely, would you get them again? Yeah? I used to
have them on I was a little as well. So yeah,
but my wife found her too devastating when they died.
So we've got budgies.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
How are the budgies.
Speaker 6 (32:14):
Not too bad?

Speaker 1 (34:37):
Guy Many And the podcast, Oh.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
People's Poll, the People's Pole, everybody comes together.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
It's the People's Pole.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
Yep. Every day we come with a what is often
a reasonably trivial topic, something that we want you to
weigh in on, and you can text your thoughts to
four four eight seven. We love getting your opinion on things.
And today's People Poll topic is inspired by something that
happened in the office today. One of our bosses has
been away on holiday overseas. She's been in Hawaii, very nice,
(35:09):
very nice, And she got back today and came into
the office with some goodies. There were some gummy beers
that came into the office. There were some peanut butter
cuts that also came into the office, and they got
put on a communal table for all of us to eat.
And I thought to myself, how lovely, how nice had
our boss has done this for us? But I wondered,
is this the norm? Is this what you're meant to
(35:31):
do when you go away on holiday? Are you meant
to come back with something for the office to enjoy together.
I'll tell you what I did bloody enjoy them too.
I had a whole handful of gummy beers, and then
I went back for not seconds, but thirds of the
Reese's peanut butter cuts. Well, they were just sitting there.
They were just sitting there and no one else was
eating them, so I thought, my god, I'm gonna eat them.
(35:51):
But I wondered today for the People's Pole, and you
can teach your thoughts through to four four eight seven all.
We put it up on our Instagram story as well
the hits drive on Instagram and Facebook. When you go
on a holiday, particularly in overseas holiday, is it a
requirement that you should bring some treats back for the office?
Speaker 8 (36:09):
Madi and PJ the podcast, The Pole's.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
Poll, the People's Pole, everybody comes together.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
It's the people.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
Yes, we do this every night. We want you to
weigh in with your thoughts on a particular topic. And
today's is what is the requirement when you come back
from an overseas holiday? Are you expected to bring some
treats back for the office. Our boss has been away
over in Hawaii and came back with some lovely gummy
beers and some peanut butter cups. I'll tell you what.
(36:43):
I help myself. I help myself more than once. I
help myself more than twice. I think I went back
for thirds with the peanut buttercups, and so we wanted
to know from you. What do you think is it
a requirement to bring something back for the office when
you go away on a holiday. You can text your
thoughts through to four four eight seven. We've also put
it up on our Instagram page. Haven't we produce a heer?
(37:04):
Yes we have.
Speaker 3 (37:05):
I've got some results. Okay, great taught me through it
first of all before I read out the pole results.
A couple of weeks ago, you and PJ went on
my week's holiday. Yes, now, you didn't go overseas.
Speaker 2 (37:15):
I didn't. But PJ went to Australia correct for a week? Yes?
Speaker 3 (37:18):
Did she bring us back anything?
Speaker 2 (37:20):
She got nothing? Nothing, There was no not even a
koala inside a chocolate koala. Insight.
Speaker 3 (37:26):
I think when it's your small team, you should bring
something back from bost.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
Okay, well noted for the next time I go on holiday.
What is the Instagram poll suggesting at this point? What
do people say? All right?
Speaker 3 (37:38):
So actually sixty four percent said yes.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
You have to you have to bring something back.
Speaker 3 (37:43):
And only thirty six think that you don't. So PJ, did.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
You hear that? Well, the people of the people have spoken.
I'd say the majority of people on the text machine
are saying, yes as well, you've got to bring something back.
A couple of nose chucked in the air as well.
I always mean to I have the best of intentions
to bring something back, but you know me, my memory
(38:07):
is shot to pieces, and so I will always always forget.
But I'm gonna put it in there. I'm gonna put
it in the back of my little mind next time
I go on and overseas holiday bring back it at
least a little toddler.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (38:20):
I think it depends how big the place, how many
people are in the place that you work in as well,
if it's a really big office, how many things do
you have to bring exactly?
Speaker 2 (38:28):
But a small little team, yes, me, you and PJ
always something. I think I can bring back a top.
Speaker 1 (38:34):
Ro many and PJ the podcast. That's
