I wouldn't an extension. I wouldn't call it a home alteration.
What would you call it an addition? In addition of sorts? Right?
This is a trend that seems something taking off more
popular around the world. The cattio this is you might
(10:08):
turn your patio into your conservatory. Would be hot. So
it's like a patio but for cats. Okay, it's an
enclosed space. This one that is on the New Zealand
Herald website that is up north. Leanne and Andy built
this for their two British blue short hair cats like
(10:29):
my care Yeah, Titan and Oliver. They they've got a
twenty one square meter stand alone enclosure. Twenty one square meters. Yeah,
size of Shannon's apartment. How big it's your apartment, Shannon?
Speaker 2 (10:45):
I don't know, but the bedroom is the length of
a single bed and the width of me standing next
to a single bed.
Speaker 6 (10:51):
Wow okay, yeah, so it's probably bigger than.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
It might be.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
A these two cats have got the same size bedroom
as you know they've got. They're all got access to
the entire house as well. Oh yeah, sustressful when they
want to get some fresh air because it's got mesh
walls so the air flows through it, so they can't
get out right, So that's the idea. They can't go
out and eat native birds. Two reasons. Leanne had a
cat that she'd raised from a kitten and a stray
(11:16):
dog came onto their property one night and mauled it
and she said I couldn't stand that heartache again and
fair enough so. But also she said they live just
out of Fungoda on a lifestyle block. There's a lot
of bosh around beautiful birds for the birds. Yeah, and
you know predator in New Zealand have come out and say, yeah,
birds are like cats are like the number one predator
(11:37):
right of our beautiful native birds above and beyond rats
and possums and such. So yeah, having them in clothes,
she said, they don't just live in there and inside
though they've got harnesses and they go for walks around
the property. Wow, okay, there is a very cute photo
of a cat and some sort of sleek harness. This
is what, this is what major Murray Fuckington needs one
of these. I should have started doing it with a kitten,
(11:59):
because I have tried to put costumes on him and
he hates it. He doesn't like it. It doesn't like
it for everybody. Everybody, it's not it's costumeies an't for everybody.
And then then your cat also isn't gonna get run
over either. No, but then that's another one that they
look like a crazy cat lady with a cardio and
you know it's not very well. I think it's do
(12:22):
you reckon? They keep it clean interior design though it's
not very minimalist, and not because it's got everything in there.
It's got like climbing towers and tunnels, bridges, slides. Yeah,
although I've never seen a cat actually go down a
slide like a child down a slide. It seems more
like a and there's like cat nip in there. And
(12:44):
oh it sounds like absolutely heaven for the cats.
Speaker 7 (12:46):
Yea.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
They should call it there that's just what my apartment
is for my cat. Yeah, you and the keys slowly
clooring and chewing his way through a couch. Yep, Well
he's not aloud outside. He's finished his couch. That's the
that's no point until you're finishing couch. He's like one
spot of the couch. You can see the wood frame.
It's getting pretty bad. That's good, Like I need a
(13:10):
new couch. But then if I get a new couch,
he's just going to start eating that again. Yeah, I
don't know another thing you should have started. You know,
when I do get a new couch, I'm going to
get I'm going to sprinkle mandarin juice over it because
he hates Apparently cats hate citrus. You can get a
citrus because every time I eat amandarin and he's near me,
he runs away, really smells it. He's like he doesn't
(13:31):
want a bar of it. I've thrown a limon at
our cat before and then limit. Yeah, it's just the
citrus that it didn't like about that, yeah, maybe yeah,
or just the hard object being thrown at. Wow is
out play play now. For the last week or ten days,
(13:51):
Producer Jared and I have been playing a new game
on PlayStation. Yeah, Sea of Thieves. See if Thieves came
out on Xbox and game and computers and Steam a
while act, but it's made its way to five and
we're fully engaged in the Pirate now. Some have see
the graphics, aren't My wife has said, the graphics and
childlike and everything, but the water. She's very impressed at
(14:14):
how realistic the water looks at a range of scenarios, right, flat, stormy, choppy,
like just insanely Yeah, massive waves, but then the rest
of the graphics terrible, not great. So the idea is
that you and Jared and your friends, you all crew
the pirate ship correct at different parts of the ship, right, Well, yeah,
(14:36):
you switch around. You've got to trim the sails. You've
got to really dean barker it and see which way
the wind's going, and then turn the sails to catch it. Yeah,
coming into where you want to port, you want to
pull the sails up a little bit so you've still
got a bit of motion, but you're not going full speed. Yeah,
drop the anchor, hard burns cannons. You're burning stuff. You
can hart burn Stuff's fantastic. It's a great game. We've
had a lot of fun. Okay, Jared has played a
(14:58):
lot more than I do. He's got less children. Yeah,
I think that's zero children. Zero children. You just have
so much more time with zero children. And he's been
streaming some of the games on Twitch. If you're on Twitch,
he has been and well, he sent me a clip.
He actually messaged on Saturday night when I was out
for dinner, saying he had just experienced homophobia on the
(15:21):
high seas. Yeah, goodness me, jer because what is our
guild called the shanty brother The shanty Brothers were you
were bought the tax man.
Speaker 8 (15:29):
I was bought the text Man.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
One of our bones is called the text man, right,
is it because you take text from other ships. Yeah.
It's like a dad plundered their goal. Yeah. Okay. At
the top of your pirate ship, you can climb the mast, yeah,
so you can see the dangers further afield. I always
hoist the rainbow flag because flags that's in our flag box.
You can have the traditional you know, skull and crossbones, right,
(15:54):
and every one that's got the money bag, which we've
used before because with the text man. Yeah, but there's
a rain flag, and I'm like, what a great way
to show where allies on the center? Is it the
updated rainbow flag? It doesn't have a triangle in the
middle or other million things on it. No, it's just
pure rainbow flag. Okay. So I hoisted the rainbow flag
earlier in the day, I bought the tax man. Yeah,
(16:14):
but I was not with Jared when he was on
this mission. We crossed now to Jared. Yes, I'm a
straight man.
Speaker 9 (16:20):
A straight man, a straight pirate. I'd been playing, I'd
been streaming for six hours. I decided to cut the stream,
have a nice little break to myself and carry on playing.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Yeah, six hours streaming on twitch? Who was watching ten
people tap in and out? It hardly seems worth it.
It's not, but it's fine. It's fun. Okay.
Speaker 9 (16:39):
So I was solo adventuring looking for buried treasure on
an island, and in the distance.
Speaker 10 (16:44):
I hear.
Speaker 9 (16:46):
Counter pirates and fire targeting my ship. I run around
the corner. I see my ship going down. I yell
out to the gang. Hey, guys, yeah, good job thinking
my ship. I think there was a chest in the
back room. You probably grabbed that already. Blah blah blah.
I was just trying to be nice, okay, and then
this Aussie voice, yeah.
Speaker 8 (17:05):
Never fly that flag here again, you're on the high seas.
Speaker 9 (17:10):
And then for the next hour they hunted me across
the server, sailing wherever I sailed, and just kept on
sinking me.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
How old was the voice? Was it like a like
adult voice? Yeah? I thought it was going to be
like teenage. No, no, no, it sounds like a full grown man.
Speaker 8 (17:25):
Yeah, and three other friends.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
I'm not going for sink ship.
Speaker 8 (17:30):
Yeah yeah, yeah. So the pirates not a safe space?
Speaker 1 (17:34):
Wow? Who would have thought online? Thought on work Teddy
and Reese Darby did in our flagman's death, making homosexual
pirates acceptable. And you're telling me that those ships filled
with men were at sea for months and nothing going happened.
Now all that rum come on, come on, come on.
Speaker 8 (17:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (17:55):
So we reported them, and my speech, because speech and
my little report box I wrote maybe instead of banning them,
maybe just lock it so they can only flood the
Pride flag.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
Sure that would be good. That would be a punishment.
That would be a good punishment. Yep.
Speaker 8 (18:11):
Ye, the queens went horrible.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Yeah, it's shocking, shocking, I mean it's yeah, it's not
it can be to some of the other insane stuff
you see people saying, yeah and other games, but fun
shanty pirates come on now, Yeah, it should be in
safe space, should be a sa space for all.

Speaker 4 (23:10):
No, no, you never kid crazy young hearts, they love
hot young hearts. Young hearts feel a lot, but we
don't always know how to say it. Like I have
so many songs I wrote as an eight year old
that is so deep, but the sentences don't connect in
any way.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
I'm like I was.
Speaker 11 (23:26):
I was popping off, but you.
Speaker 4 (23:28):
Didn't really know what I was saying. Yeah, you should
do it now that like everyone knows who you are.
You should like release them like we recorded them as
you now people. It's a really good idea. Anything better
to do right now? Like, oh no, I don't have
any other lot of free time right now.
Speaker 11 (23:44):
Yeah, my eight year old songs.

Around the USA with you in Europe and we're doing America,
so it's full headline and I've never done like a
headline to her before, and I wasn't really sure how
it was going to sell or anything, because I'm like,
who knows, and it's sold out.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
I love it.
Speaker 4 (24:05):
I reckon you would have been the only person who
doubted that it was yeah, you know, because I get
so scared to get my hopes up, you know, because
so many big things have been happening. But also I'm
just like I have to remember, like this is so
the beginning of my career, Like this is just my
first hit song, you know, Like God, hopefully I'm going
to have a lot of other hit songs, but like
this is just just just the tip of iceberg.

(26:32):
didn't catch a single moment of it, but I tell
you what I saw the memes afterwards. I saw there
was something about a last supper that got everybody riled up,
something about a threesome and someone's testicle pomped out Shannon
at the social media desk with all the info.
Speaker 6 (26:49):
Yeah, there were some great memes coming out of the weekend.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
One of my favorites was the fact that we might
have an international war because they got the careers mixed
up when announcing the two they.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Said the good career was the bad doesn't come to
the Olympics they did this time. Really.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Yeah, there's I think about fifteen of them, and everyone
is so intrigued as this their first time out of
the country.
Speaker 6 (27:12):
What's it long?
Speaker 1 (27:12):
They have one of the sanctioned Kim Jong un haircuts.
Speaker 6 (27:17):
I believe, so I didn't look too close.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
It was persing down with rain, so they were all
wearing ponchos, like the three dollar concept.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
So how's about all these countries have like all these
fancy designers like Ralph l Reindu, the Americans and so
and then they were all wearing three dollar punch die
hawk and poncho.
Speaker 10 (27:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
Yeah, And they also packed the boats quite weirdly. So
the countries came down and a few countries got mixed boats.
So like three countries were cheer a boat or big
countries like America.
Speaker 6 (27:44):
Got their own. But some of them were really badly packed.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
One guy was by himself and he was just left
by himself, whereas other people were all stacked up and
they couldn't walk or breathe.
Speaker 6 (27:54):
It was yeah, it wasn't the boat.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
The thing was weird, was it? It was different, It
was different.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
It was a bit like metal horse boat, like just
a big mechanical horse running like trotting down with the
boats as well.
Speaker 6 (28:07):
It was intense.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
How was Gagar She's increatible?
Speaker 6 (28:10):
It was so beautiful shit a French song. There was
big feathers. It was very moolong rouge sexy.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
So then when did Celene dear? Because I thought that
they were doing a duet, but then I saw a
photo of Gagar and no Selene.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
No Selene was by herself and just beautiful and she
looked incredible, big rhyanstone dress and she sang beautifully.
Speaker 6 (28:31):
It was awesome, right. Oh yeah, and then the threesome obviously, yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
Well they didn't invent that, didn't they. They did bold
to put it in the opening cermon. And then the
last supper was I saw a picture and I didn't
even click it was the last supper. By the way,
the threesome was an artistic interpretation of Yeah, like when
we say there was a threesome at the opening ceremony,
it wasn't like a cut to three people.
Speaker 6 (28:53):
Want to be no, it was very implied. But yeah,
there was lots of cutaway shots.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
There was Marie Antoinette with her head, there was mental music,
it was full noise.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Had a bit of everything. Yeah, and yeah, the last supper. Yeah,
the drag queens controversy.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Lots of famous drag queens, including Nikki Dole, who's one
of the biggest ones out of RuPaul's Drag Race.
Speaker 6 (29:14):
She hosts the French show.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
But yeah, lots of people not happy about that, and
then also thinking they saw a blue testicle on their screen.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
So but it was the guy's bunched up undies.
Speaker 6 (29:24):
Yeah, allegedly.
Speaker 1 (29:26):
Allegedly. I mean that's what you'd say if your testicor
popped out and the whole world saw it, although it
was blue.
Speaker 6 (29:31):
So yeah, but they've gone to their effort of painting everything.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
I've got to say my Olympics moment wasn't in the
opening ceremony. It was just on social See Mikayla blythe
meet the sprinter that sheizes, the Jamaican sprinter.
Speaker 6 (29:47):
Yeah, they started following each other. There's a bit of an.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
Update and Fraser Price right yellow here last Olympics. Remember
she's a Jamaican sprinter. I didn't recognize it this time
because she's ditched the trademark Bart Simpson hair right and
she's just got yeah yeah, black hair. But Mikayla Blood
was like in a massage apparently in her teammates were like,
we found her and so she comes truck around the
corner in Paris, no shoes on. Yeah, how very key.
(30:14):
So that was pretty heartwarm. And then mid her yeah okay, yeah,
met her Idol. Well at the stage, per Capita was
still doing pretty good. Zero what is the middle tower?
Per capita.
Speaker 6 (30:26):
Ossie was out in front when I work up this morning.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
Australia has yeah golds two silvers, zero bronzes, France three
to two two, Japan three two one, South Korea three
to one, New Zealand zero zero zero. But per capita,
like we do really well when you break it down
per capita now, because we've got to get off middle
before we start doing the per capita. Oh right, we
need something to divide by. Yeah, okay, Kazakhstan seventh what
(30:52):
judo they rule rule it judo. Yeah I didn't know that. Yeah,
I didn't know they were a judo nation, big Judo nation.
Speaker 13 (31:03):
Play play still, little pole, It is so silly, silly,
silly that simul po silly silly dup.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
You know, we said the sevens. I just want to
quickly cover this off. We said the sevens was over.
The woman sevens hasn't even begun. Oh ye middle height,
Yeah you know, yes, well true, so the female sevens
of the Olympics is still to come. Yeah, that's about
to kick off. So the little pole today is do
you like being greeted as you entered into a store.
So this kind of this this came about because some
(31:46):
guy that in Australia went on some big rant on TikTok,
which kind of got some picked up some steam and
you know, people started jumping in. Did he want to
be left alone? Entirely? He used to work in retail,
and he was like, look, I know it's retail. No,
it's you know, it can be a shitty job. But
he said, you know, like I feel like when I
worked in retail, I gave it my all. I said
(32:06):
hello to everyone when they walked in the store. I
was helpful. And he just said, now it just seems
like no one caysk you beck in Manda, Yeah, Amanda,
it wasn't even that all. Well, this is why do
you like being greeted as you and to restore Forty
eight percent of people say yes. Fifty two percent said no.
Do you think it's because it's more than a hello?
Sometimes it can be a hi? What can I do
(32:27):
for you today? What can I help me? Welcome in?
It's like I don't know, sometimes I'm just browsing. Yeah time, Yeah,
having a lot. Well, people did just a sneaky majority
don't like being greeted as they're walk into a store.
Do you think it would be more people want to
write hello, but that hello, Yeah, let me know if
(32:48):
you need anything. Yeah, that's a perfect reading high let
me know if I can help. And another way, you've
always got to say bye, because sometimes when they like
get into all, we've got to sale on this is
on special, you can get this, and it's say no, no,
no no, I'm just looking retail one oh one, someone
teachs message. Then retail one on one engage with customers
when they walk in. Those engaged with are less likely
(33:08):
to shop with as you've made contact with them. Oh
and you've given the You've given the store a human face. Okay,
that's interesting. An acknowledgment, says Zach, an acknowledgment that I've
walked in and not I can I help you straight away?
I can add out for some parts of my life
and if I can don't find what I'm looking for.
A shell approach. Yeah, there's a hello. Let me know
(33:29):
if you need anything, perfect, perfect, Yes, but that's it.
I'll have a hello, but I'll come to you if
I need help with anything more, says Mandy. Yeah, I'm
on te Mandy there. Andy says, I don't want to
be perceived while shopping perceived. Did they miss out what
they want to be perceived as or I don't want
to be perceived to exist while shopping. Yeah, I'm not sure.
(33:55):
Jonathan says they have They have some flog at the
front door, but no one in the aisles to help
you find things. Oh okay. Also, so he's saying, he's
saying more star Holls roaming. Yeah, in America, everything's behind
like lock cabinets now, Like at the drug stores, even
(34:15):
if you want like deodorant, you've got a bing bong
and they come to you and they slide it up
and they open it with a key for you.
Speaker 8 (34:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
So maybe he's messaging and from America, Yeah, where there
is literally not around with that key. Tanya. Retail training
kicks in and I get super purssed off from that
acknowledgement I walked in. The worst is when stuff continued
a conversation with each other, well one of them. Yeah,
I was waiting the other day to pay for something
at the counter and these two stuff like having a
(34:42):
bloody chin wag. I was like with you or they
were like the other end of the store its sale.
Do you want the sailing your daily target? I'm over
here yeah, ah, Fast says the most annoying thing is
when you're trying on clothes, undress yourself half naked, and
they constantly come to check in. Are you all good
(35:03):
in there?
Speaker 11 (35:04):
How's it going?
Speaker 1 (35:04):
Are you good for sizes? Someone said, I just caught
the fast as I just caught a look at my
own ass in the mirror and the change room. Maybe
just leave me alone for a little bit. Yeah, I
just seed some time to process that. Mason, God, No,
leave me the hell alone. I have my earbuds and
especially just to ignore people. Oh yep, yep, immediately, Moana, immediately,
I will purposely not buy anything if there's chit chat
(35:26):
between staff and no chit chat with me again, that's
a person that's like I like seeing the staff talking. Yeah,
as long as it doesn't if I've got a question. Yeah,
the delay is not going to be too much. What
do you expect them to just hang out all day
and not have fun? And yeah walk Yeah, As a
retail manager says Lisa, we hate bothering him. When you
come in. We aren't all pushing. We just want to
(35:47):
say hello. Yeah, just a hello is good, very Yeah,
human touch to say hello. And as that person said,
they're less likely to shop left if you even gave. Yeah,
people feel quite strongly about it, don't they. I worked
in a retail place apart time over ten years ago,
and they literally had a ten step sale process. I've
got so sick of it because it's obvious people just
want to be left alone as symbole Hello, let me
(36:08):
know if you need anything. It's much better. Yeah. Then
shops say that are so competitive with sales too. It's toxic.
Secret shoppers would come in and say, you did points one, two, three,
but you missed four, five, six, nine, and you came
back in at ten. Oh, yeah, that would be horrible.
You can tell it's mostly now your line. They want
to tickle blame. Electronic stores are like that. Yes, they
(36:28):
are there. They want the sales targets, aren't they. Yeah,
you feel like, yeah, they just won't leave your line.
They just found where they got to. And then if
you talk to somebody and then you're like, oh, I'll
have a think about it, and then you end up
making a decision on your own and you take it
up to the count someone else gets their sale. They're
not happy about it. They're not happy about that. Yeah.
Seven twenty four. Next on the show, Shannon apparently has
(36:51):
another great hack for us. We'll see, we'll see another
there's been previously a great heck, there hasn't There hasn't.
Speaker 3 (37:01):
Play Sidium's Fledgble and Haley.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
Shennon has hacks for us. There's there's no intro for
the segment, not until there's a five star hack, because
we've seid it. Until she delivers with a hack, it's no,
it's no point doing the segment really no. In fact,
I wonder if it's got legs because we just kept
we just kept getting terrible hacks. What's the area of
(37:27):
the hack today?
Speaker 6 (37:29):
Parenting of what you have never done? Yeah, but I've
got a hack for it easier and least embarrassing.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Is it drop the kids off of the grandparents and
then go on a European holiday?
Speaker 6 (37:41):
I like that one. Yeah, maybe that's next week.
Speaker 1 (37:43):
Or is it use a cattery because it's cheaper and
and kids love cats and then they're in the cages
with the cats.
Speaker 12 (37:52):
Yo?
Speaker 1 (37:53):
Perfect? Did I just come up with a hack? Although
I don't know how how much. Are catteries I'd never
used on? But they are? It's right? Yeah, day to
day boarding school, if you sent a kid to boarding school.
But I love my cat. I'm not going to see
my cat to a boarding school. Boarding. No, I was
just thinking, is alternative to getting someone to look a
year ye vacation? Yeah right, okay, so the heck.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
So basically, I can imagine if you had a young baby.
So maybe if you've got a niece room, if you're
a kid, it would be really embarrassing on its like birthday,
maybe first or second if it cried while Ebroun sung
a Happy Birthday, and it like ruins the photo.
Speaker 1 (38:30):
I've had this very occasion.
Speaker 3 (38:32):
Andy didn't like.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
August loved it when people sung a heavy birthday. Oldest
freaked out.
Speaker 6 (38:37):
Yeah, so I've got a hack for that.
Speaker 2 (38:39):
Okay, So from the day it's born, you sit it
in a high chair and loudly sing it Happy Birthday,
maybe clap, get a few Confiti poppers, and you desensitize
your kid to happy birthday just like once a day.
Speaker 6 (38:54):
You just like yell at it, right, Happy Birthday a
few times.
Speaker 1 (38:59):
Then it gets to the so you're screaming at your
child every day of its life, so one moment they
don't cry, And yeah.
Speaker 6 (39:08):
Because that would be embarrassing. So yeah, yell at them
every day. Clap, maybe get a few people around to help, like.
Speaker 1 (39:16):
And because that's going to say that what you're describing,
it's just you yelling heavy with that and then all
of a sudden, a large group is yelling heavy. Birthday now, Shannon.
According to k dot com, the effects of yelling at
a baby ye continued shouting out at anger around a baby,
even when not directed at a baby, will likely increase
the storist levels and anxiety, which may make attaching to
(39:40):
the primary care giver harder.
Speaker 6 (39:42):
Well, you did say angry. I'm not doing this angrily.
It's exciting celebrating their births quite a loud.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
Noise, so, isn't it.
Speaker 6 (39:48):
But that's the point.
Speaker 1 (39:49):
Give us an example of what this would sound like.
Speaker 6 (39:52):
Havey birthday, Ye baby, don't cry.
Speaker 1 (40:00):
That's a learned that's lunacy. This because you would do
what when did Indie become okay with people singing Happy
birthday your daughter? Ah, they just get used to it birthday.
Speaker 6 (40:11):
So this is a hack for four years of their life,
four years of embarrassment. You could say.
Speaker 1 (40:17):
It's an embarrassing it's just like, oh, it's Okay, it's
all right. No, it's embarrassing the candle out. I don't
want to.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
I want.
Speaker 6 (40:26):
Photos.
Speaker 1 (40:27):
More embarrassing that your neighbors here you streaming Happy birthday
every day baby, or they just assume you've got so
many people living in the house. Every day is somebody's birthday.
That's zero starts from me today lows. It's low, Like
I get the climatizing your child to a situation so
that when it rises, it's not free. But I don't
(40:50):
know if yelling happy birthday at them any more than
one star.
Speaker 6 (40:53):
For me, I'll take one.
Speaker 1 (40:56):
Are you giving her one? It was a pity one.
I'll take no space. No, there's no petty rankings around here.
And it's that's sing again for you heard it the
first time. Nat Back to the drawing board for you
atter have You're going to invest three hundred and sixty
five days of yelling Happy birthd at your child so
(41:18):
that on their first birthday they were like, oh, yeah,
it's just another day. It's just another day. That's what
you say when you're with an old person. Oh it's
just another day, you know, when you're one year old? Oh,
you know, birthdays every day.
Speaker 6 (41:28):
But what's the point of having kids if you don't
get a cute grand photo.
Speaker 1 (41:31):
You know, you know, you can go to Europe without
kids and have a great grand photo. Yeah. Next on
the show, there is a ring bearer at the Olympics.
It has some flag bearer, a flag bearers about long
bearings ring because he's got of explaining to do. Next,
a Italian flag bearer has lost his ring in the
(41:55):
cn which is the river that everybody was on for
the Olympics opening serum. Jan Marco Dumbilly must have been loose,
like just fall off or did he take it off
because he was old. No, no, no, apparently he was
waving the flag and it was raining quite a lot. Yeah, slippery, slippery.
It bounced off his bounce off his hand and he
(42:17):
saw it bounce and then it fell into the plopped
into the water. Now he's saying it's because he's lost
too much weight with all the training he's been doing.
He's got skinny finger syndrome, too much water, too many
kilograms lost over the last few months, and maybe the
uncontrollable enthusiasm of what we're doing. Probably all three things,
he said. Because he's written a big apology post to
(42:39):
his wife. I bet he has because he's lost a
very expensive you're never getting that back because into the
sediment and you never find it, get that remade, get
that remade. So I forgive that though, if you were
the wife, right, like, that's pretty cool. Mistakes happen. God,
he's got skinny fingers. She's got skinny fingers too. There's
a photo of both of their hands. Do you never notice,
(43:01):
like if you like yo yo yo is from wayback,
But I've never noticed my fingers getting skinny. They're always
the same. No, well, I would have thought so. But
my wedding ring, which fit me when I got married
in twenty ten, doesn't go over the knuckles. Now now,
I don't know if that's a I don't know if
that's your knuckles get a bit bigger when you get older,
(43:22):
swelling and such and the joys, like your fingers have
got fat fingers because I don't wear mine anymore because
it doesn't fit and I'm dts. I think that's the
way you said that is you're not I'm not dead. Yeah,
no you're not. Ah, So yeah, mine doesn't fat, So
it's in my draw My dad never wore one he
(43:43):
got married, got the wedding ring, and it was working
at a cabinet making factory at the time. And see,
whilst lost, he saw a guy lose his finger. Oh
my god. Well nope, yeah, no thing, but yeah, this
guy's bounced off. It was a it was a dainty
little wedding ring and it bounced off and it's plopped right. Well,
we want to know this morning how you lost your
(44:03):
wedding ring, and take stories for engagement rings as well,
or just any kind of ring of significance if that
could lead to a burger ring story. We've all lost
the burger ring down the back of the couch. That's
somebody else's problem now. Yeah, yeah, I feel like this
is not enough flavor. That I'm not making them like
they used to burger ring more burgering flavor. They haven't
the burger rings for a while. I might put in
(44:25):
a Sidebarte approached the bar cheeto puffs. I'm all about
the cheeseballs. These are che there's a long cheese balls.
Somebody said that your joints do swell a little bit
when you get older. That are on the if they
are prone to a little arthritis. Oh really, because I
(44:50):
never think about it. I just moved my fingers. But
now I'm moving in the thinking about it, I'm like, oh, actually, okay,
and that joint of stiffness. Maybe you lost some weight
and your wedding rings slipped off. Maybe you lost your
wedding ring or your engagement ring somewhere insane, like I
don't know, in the in the ocean while you were diving, yeah,
or scuba dozza? Where to go? Where to go? Did
(45:10):
you lose it?
Speaker 9 (45:10):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (45:11):
Eight hundred dollars? And in points as well? If you
haven't told your partner and you're pretending that you've still
got you lost it somewhere you should not have been, yes,
And so you are like, I don't know where it's gone.
Someone else table it is sewn on the back of
someone else's beard. Who knows? Oh eight hundred dollars at him?
Give us a call. You can text her as well.
Nine six nine six. How did you lose your special ring?
(45:33):
Where're talking about? Where you lost that special ring? Wedding ring,
engagement ring? So the Italian flag bearer has ring slipped
off his finger on the boat and plopped into the seine,
into the river, never to be seen again where he
was enthusiastically waving the flag. Some messages in on Instagram.
We asked if you'd lost it, Amy sif My husband
lost his three weeks in while using a love splitter,
(45:58):
had his spinger and noticed it. I thought it was gone.
Wait so it didn't take the finger. Oh okay, lucky.
It's so weird. What happened to it? My daughter thought
she'd tried on found it a year later wedge between
her bunk bed and the wall. Said Eliza, that's uh,
it's just been wedged in there the whole time. I
love the thought of scouring a house. Yeah, pre curiously wedged. Tash,
(46:22):
you lost your mum's ring as a kid, similar kind
of thing.
Speaker 3 (46:25):
Yeah, I did.
Speaker 14 (46:28):
Yeah, I was in lots lots of trouble. I was
about five or six at the time on suit and
my mid twudies.
Speaker 2 (46:35):
Now.
Speaker 14 (46:36):
I remember it clear as days. So my mum went
through a shower and put both her wedding ring and
her engagement band on the bathroom counter and I tried
them on. But I also went to the toilet after
I tried them on, and I accidentally plushed not one,
but two down the toilet.
Speaker 1 (46:55):
Because your finger because they're giant, obviously.
Speaker 14 (46:59):
So my mom came out of the shower and she said,
where's my wedding ring? In my engagement ring? And I
looked at her and I just pointed to the toilet,
and she cried but laughed at the same time.
Speaker 1 (47:10):
On and did Dad believe that? Because that sounds like
something mom would say if she'd lost them.
Speaker 3 (47:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 14 (47:17):
Dad wasn't too heavy at me. It was me at
the time that he did get over it at once.
Speaker 3 (47:22):
They were replaced by insurance.
Speaker 1 (47:26):
Okay, lucky there was insurance, otherwise you would not have
been the favorite child, Tash. Thank you. Rachel. Your husband
lost his wedding ring.
Speaker 15 (47:34):
Yes, he did, like a week after we got married.
Speaker 3 (47:38):
Was it?
Speaker 1 (47:38):
It wasn't an expense? I mean they're all expensive, but
was it?
Speaker 3 (47:44):
Yes, it was.
Speaker 15 (47:45):
It wasn't as expensive as mine, but we had matching
wedding bands. And he'd gone out diving six days after
our wedding, digging digging around for power, got it caught
in the seaweed and came up and thought something felt weird.
And then he had to ring me and tell me,
and there was no reception, so all I could hear
(48:07):
was sorry, sorry I've lost and then keep cutting out
and yeah, and there were flowers, lots of begging, lots
of apologies.
Speaker 1 (48:17):
Yeah. Oh, to be honest, I just would have settled
for a fee of power. I mean that's some grayfish. Yeah, yeah,
something a little special. Get your bloody scuba gear back
on and get down and find it in that seaweed.
Speaker 12 (48:28):
Oh absolutely absolutely, books for a while, just so much
treasure on the bottom of Then give us a couple
of years ago that fish that a scuba diver saw
swimming along and had a wedding ring in the middle
of it, like it had swum through a wedding ring.
Speaker 1 (48:42):
Really, and it got grown around. And now it had
grown around and you see a bike growing in a
or a tree growing through a bike. Yeah, that bike's
owner's saving in that bike back. Hey, Rachel, thank you
for your call, so keep your text coming. In nine
six ninety six, I wait, one hundred dollars at M
where did you lose the ring or the engagement ring?
I lost my wedding ring in Lake Tope or but
(49:05):
a clown having a swimming race with a mate. I
was married five months. Insurance got me though, That's the
thing that these things are insured insured, they're under your
house and contents, and if it's over a certain amount,
you've got to get it specifically valued. One hundred and
eighty six meters at its deepest point. Yeah, I don't
think they were that deep. You're not getting that. It's
a salty bottom, silty bottom. It's a salty bottom, guilty bottom.
(49:27):
So we're talking about where you lost your ring. The
Italian flag bearer losses in the CNN, which they've tested again, Yes, poopy.
Apparently when the mayor went swimming to say it's okay,
it wasn't. Yeah, so maybe don't swallow when you're swimming
in those races if you're an athlete. Tracy, you lost
three rings at once. Yeah, okay, what's a wedding ring,
(49:51):
engagement So my my.
Speaker 10 (49:54):
Mother's eternity ring and engagement ring and my grandmother's engagement
ring last importants.
Speaker 1 (50:05):
Replaceable, you'd say. Yeah.
Speaker 10 (50:08):
So I was like, I was at home and realized
that they were missing off my finger, and I obviously
beside myself, searched the whole house, drove to work, searched
all of work I had been out during the day
with work, went to the places they were had been
in the dark with the torch trying to find these rings.
(50:30):
My daughter was with me, helping me, being very understanding,
even though I don't think she really was, because like
in the she you know, she should have been getting those.
Speaker 1 (50:39):
Rings slipping away.
Speaker 16 (50:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (50:43):
Well, she was being very calm and very caring. And
so I came home and I thought, right, I'll just
there's nothing I can do, just got to go to bed.
And so I was getting undressed and I took my
bra off, and the rings are a little bit loose,
and I had obviously got and re arranged the girls
during the day, and my hand was cold, the girls
(51:04):
were warm, and here they were tucked under my boob,
all three of them. And they've been near the entire time.
Speaker 1 (51:11):
So you went to the old girls and they had
all three of them had swept off.
Speaker 10 (51:16):
Yeah. And I hadn't realized, you.
Speaker 1 (51:22):
I'm not a breast owner. You didn't feel them prodding
the underneath of the tit.
Speaker 10 (51:26):
No, No, I know, because the girls are you know,
I'm quite well indown.
Speaker 16 (51:33):
They were looking after.
Speaker 4 (51:33):
Them for me.
Speaker 1 (51:37):
That's brilliant, Tracy, that's brilliant found them. Yeah, Tracy, thank you. Kate,

Speaker 1 (52:17):
Beautiful from Lord of the Rings, isn't it? And so
how did you lose it in the lake?
Speaker 17 (52:29):
So so on a like bozy like New Year's trip
where we were a whole of like nineteen year olds
on a one of those cruises that go out onto
the water and we all come into the water, and
I did actually have the thought off, this ring is
really sing to mental, I should take it off.
Speaker 10 (52:48):
So I took it off and I handed it.
Speaker 18 (52:50):
Back up to my girlfriend who was on the boat,
and as she grabbed it, as I was passing to earth,
she dropped it. I tried to catch it and we
threw my hands into the water and we just I
was trying to like scramble get it, and.
Speaker 17 (53:06):
It just keep going down.
Speaker 1 (53:08):
Just couldn't get it. How far how deep was it?
I don't know if you previously heard me mention one
hundred and eighty six meters deeper at the deepest point.
Speaker 17 (53:16):
Well so it was over by the calving, so probably
not at the deepest point, but my god, like honestly
you could see it go down and doubt that's how
clear the water work was. Three go down and get it,
and I want to get it. Still sending mere so.
Speaker 1 (53:31):
The carvings, that's the part where the people jump off
the cliffs, right, So it is quite deep there.
Speaker 10 (53:36):
Yeah, it is deep, definitely deep.
Speaker 17 (53:38):
But like to get a novice to free di three
dive down off.
Speaker 1 (53:41):
A boat, like anybody's got any scuba gear or a
deep submerciful submarine. It sounds like there's a few rings
at the bottom of the lake.
Speaker 17 (53:50):
I know, And oh my gosh, I would love to
get that back.
Speaker 1 (53:52):
I mean, I'm never getting how long did this happen?

Speaker 3 (55:25):
Play.
Speaker 1 (55:30):
I am a Starlink user, not a huge Glon Musk fan.
I know he's such a penis, but I could get
previous was embarrassing. Yeah, well that's the thing. You live
kind of rually, so no fiber. Yeah, and it's pretty amazing.
I mean you've got to I mean, because is that
what not votafone one? Is it going to use? They're
(55:53):
doing the partnership anyway, So good for New Zealand because
even driving sometimes straight howay when you don't get receipt
in some parts. If you're listening to this a minute,
that sounds like a bit of me. I'm not endorsing it,
but I do have a code I'd like to share
with you. A month. You get a month. Oh, that's
pretty good. That's a good deal, right, it's pretty good.
That's a good deal. Yeah, a code. I can give

all of you the sky, you'll be able to get
some sort of reception. So yeah, emergency calls and locate.
It's going to help where everything. That'll be totally great.
But I got an email from them from starleink Okay,
(56:38):
interesting title. It came up as a notification in app.
And then I also got an email notification of a
copyright infringement. Oh you wouldn't download a handbag? I would
if I could three D printer and save me shadow
buying a handbag. Yeah, that's to Vorn Smith Through said
(57:00):
the attached notice from a content owner claiming that you're
Starling internet service was used to download copyrighted material without
the right to do so. Oh trouble, trouble, trouble vie
support back and that was the two thousands. It'd make
a big thing and they'd like prosecute someone for doing that.
Just makeo'd make an example of something, and it was
always embarrassing because it was always some nude who downloaded
(57:22):
like that. I don't know, some nerd show Fringe or something,
or oh hey that was a great show. That was
a great show. So it turns out that this was
copyrighted material from Paramount Plus. Yeah, I'm like, that's interesting.
I honestly haven't downloaded anything for so long. Neither. You
want to like either, sound surprised. I even put the
(57:43):
idea forward. I haven't downloaded anything for ages neither. Now dismissive. Dismissive. Okay,
oh yeah, say it like it hadn't even crossed your
mind to do it. Okay, I haven't downloaded anything for
ages neither. No, sound really guilty? Then I would do
it like that. Play both parts me and you. I
haven't download anything for ages. Oh neither. That sounded like
(58:06):
you just literally downloaded last week. Yeah, anyway, to be fair,
the show that I downloaded last is on one of
my streaming services. It's just not express enough me and
then put it up five hours after it comes out
of America. I want to express. I want to express express,
(58:29):
So that are saying express, but we'll drop it later
on tonight when most people are doing their night time viewing.
It's not illegal because I already pay for it. Okay,
so that's my defense. We'll see, we'll see. But wait,
what did you Why did you get a download notice?
So I'm like, I said a shot out, like you
do downloaded something. She's like, I don't even know how
to download anything? Yeah, none neither, And so I immediately
(58:50):
was like, well, there's one last suspect, my father in law. Right,
we've got to the router's got to expand her on
it so he can get it in the in the
granny flat. Okay. And I just seen him the screencaps
and shadow is that you're going to freak him out.
I was like, good, you go to scare them straight sometimes,
these naughty little kids, you've got to scare them straight. Yeah.
(59:11):
So I seen it to him and I was like, hey, John,
how does he know how to download something? Dude doesn't
know how to sit up an automatic payment, knows how
to download TV shows it's wild, knows how to find
some weird, obscure Korean soap opera that was made in
like two thousand and eight. Yeah, doesn't know how to
(59:34):
stop the toilet from running the whole time. Anyway, so
I messaged him and she said he's going to freak out,
and he did freak out a bit and he's like, oh, no,
I've got a VPN. He does have a VPN. Again,
he knows how to work a VPN. He's like, I've
got a VPN and know how to do so many things.
I know he's got a VPN. He's like, I don't
know what the story is here? Is it? Because I
because he also this is how he does. Is you
know he records a lot of his own music. Yes,
(59:54):
he does. He goes to that thing that you can
rip MP three's off YouTube but pasting, and you download
the karaoke track and then he sings it on to it.
I said, I don't even think that would register here.
It's paramount plus. So anyway, I said, maybe we'll just
tie hole on the downloads. And so the next day,
because we were out when I sent him that, the
next day he came over and it was almost like sht.
(01:00:16):
E marched him out and was like, go and go
and tell him, go and tell you what you've done.
And I'm outside and he comes over and He's like,
I've been thinking about the the infringement, and I'm like,
oh yeah, and kind of shotovers in the background. It
was so much like she was marching. The kid went
to mom, and Mom would know what I did wrong?
To tell your father. So my father in law is
(01:00:38):
the child in the situation. Is I think I know
where I've gone wrong. There was one TV show I
downloaded I forgot to turn on the VPN. I was like, oh, okay,
wasn't what was that one? And he's like it is
called evil and I was like, there's a maybe paramount.
Plus he's I believe it is. I'm sorry for this.
I was just like, I was like, all right, that's whatever.
(01:00:59):
That's cool. But if we're those the internet, you're paying
for the internet. Yeah, and then we get the booster,
so yeah, wild to get into notice. I was like,
this is the first because my kids and I know
my kids ever misbehaved. It was the first time where
I was like, well, there's a bit of a mystery here,
and someone's gonna own up to it. Yeah. Do you
remember the days like in the two thousands, we'd have
(01:01:19):
a big hard drive and then all your friends would
like share TV shows that everyone had downloaded. Yes, because
we live in New Zealand. I don't want to throw
anyone under the bus. But Russboss used to have a
great collection toneath in the two thousands, and do you
remember that time he dropped his hard drive. Yeah, everybody
was fairly devastating and there might have been some sort
of grow funeral for it. So anyway, Yeah, they're still watching, still.
Speaker 3 (01:01:44):
Watching plays Fletchable and Hailey.
Speaker 1 (01:01:49):
It was produced Carlin that actually brought our attention to
what we're going to talk about next, a feature or
something that you can do in Instagram that could get
people in trouble interest in the car. When spotted this,
no no no no no no no no no no
no no no no no no no no no no
no no no no no.
Speaker 11 (01:02:07):
Psycho girlies on TikTok brought it to my attention.
Speaker 8 (01:02:11):
Okay, I have no need for this.
Speaker 1 (01:02:12):
I had no idea that you could do this.
Speaker 7 (01:02:14):
Yes, so I will preface that it's not necessarily a
new feature. I think that it happened came out early
this year, okay, but all the girlies on TikTok are
realizing that this could be really good if you're a
little suspicious of your partner, and.
Speaker 1 (01:02:28):
Then they just happen to have a long shower and
let their phone unlocked on the bedside table.
Speaker 7 (01:02:32):
It's crazy that I just happened to ask you for
your password earlier this morning, and now you're on the
toilet for half an hour.
Speaker 1 (01:02:39):
And I'm going through your phone. So this well. On
Instagram if you click on somebody's profile. So say you
are a partner and you suspect your partner of talking
to a certain person on Instagram, you would go to
their profile. They've got to be friends with them, right.
Speaker 11 (01:02:58):
Oh, I haven't tried it on someone that I'm not
friends with, but you.
Speaker 1 (01:03:01):
Would have me, So yeah, yeah, I think you have
to be friends with them. So you click on the
three dots.
Speaker 11 (01:03:07):
Yeah, three little dots.
Speaker 1 (01:03:08):
It's like, so I did this for your profile, bore,
And I clicked on the three little dots beside on
the top right hand corner. Okay, And then it says and.
Speaker 7 (01:03:15):
Then it has like a long list of things including
sea shared activity.
Speaker 1 (01:03:19):
See here we go.
Speaker 7 (01:03:20):
And so I'm on Fletch's page right now. This is
our shared activity. Fletch followed me in June twenty twenty one.
I followed Fletch in September twenty eighteen.
Speaker 1 (01:03:31):
Fan you were a fan of the show.
Speaker 7 (01:03:35):
Yeah, well that's technically when I started your friends well anyway,
But you can also see tags, so things that you've
tagged each other in. You can see likes, so I
can see all the photos of mine that like Fletch
is liked.
Speaker 11 (01:03:50):
And that I've liked to Fletch.
Speaker 1 (01:03:51):
Can you see story likes? No, it doesn't, it doesn't
show that.
Speaker 11 (01:03:55):
But and then comments as well.
Speaker 1 (01:03:57):
But if you've been like, if you're friends with someone
and I don't know, they're a hot model or whatever,
and you've liked all their posts, they're going to see that.
They're going to see all of that. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (01:04:07):
And so if you're thinking, oh, my partners, you know,
brought up a person a few times, or like they
seem to be on their feet a lot, you could
just have a little look and be like, oh, what's
their shared activity and oh, they've liked every single one
of their pictures and they've been tagging each other in.
Speaker 1 (01:04:23):
Reels each other And because that would be comments, yeah, comment,
oh wow, okay, okay. And so obviously this has caught
people out right I assume. So, yeah, I've tagged you
in a lot more posts than you've tagged me and fled.
Speaker 9 (01:04:40):
Oh wow, I've just gone to see which of Sidney

Speaker 5 (01:05:51):
You just look at them, plays Flitch Porne and Haley
Fat of the Day day.
Speaker 3 (01:06:00):
Day day day.
Speaker 11 (01:06:02):
Yeah, do do do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do do do do
do doo.
Speaker 1 (01:06:13):
This week's the theme for Factor that as the Olympics,
the Olympics going on about happening makes sense that ah,
and I just thought maybe even for for the full
length of the Olympics. There's a lot of facts about
the Olympics. Yeah, it'd have been around for a while.
I've been around for a long time. And that's kind
of what today's Fact of the Day kind of touches on,
because I noticed Greece were like first out of the
(01:06:36):
blocks for the opening ceremony because it's the thing bingo, Yeah,
by the home of the Olympics. They come out really
high up the order. Do you remember we went to Athens,
didn't we? Dusty Ethens? And we went to this was
that the original? Yeah, you can go to the original,
like track the Home of the Olympics from eighteen ninety four,
(01:06:58):
the first modern Olympics and they yeah, they've got the
stadium set up there and it all kind of happened
in this one area. But despite them being the home
of the Olympics, they've never won a Winter Olympics Middle Oh, Greece,
not one. I've never been to the northern parts of Greece,
but surely there's some mountains with some snow on them,
some cold spots. Yeah, or they would have just had
(01:07:19):
to know, like New Zealand, like you just have ice
skaters and yeah, well, neum we've got snowy mountains, skis
and stuff. And the last time that Greece placed in
the top ten at the summer Summer Olympics nineteen oh four. Goodness,
since then, they have never got it all downhill. It's
all been downhill, but not downhill skiing because they've never
(01:07:41):
won a Winter Olympics now. Yeah, so yeah, Greece, they
just and they not cracked the top ten since nineteen
oh four. They've not even come close. They mostly sit
in the twenties or did not rank. I feel a
little bit embarrassing. It's like something and they're not being
great at it. Yeah, it's not. Even when they had
(01:08:01):
the Athens Olympics, they didn't have like a bumper year. No,
they've never they had a good year, but not a
bumper year in the top ten because that was two
thousand and four. That's why there's a great metro into Athens. Yeah,
from the Olympics. I mean, they'll bankrupt the country, but
you get a great metros, you get a great metro utilities. Yeah,
(01:08:23):
the city is afterwards that then they've got to maintain
that they couldn't even afford to build in the first place.
That's why we need a few more America's Cumps in
World Cups. Well, we were just saying they were we Yeah,
you get nice new things because I saw a picture
of like downtown Auckland before the America's Cup and it
was very different. And then again before the Rugby World Cup. Yeah,
the Rugby World couple of force gave us when you'd
caught it. Yeah, just sing if your city is struggling,
(01:08:46):
why not have a large scale international event that could
very well bankrupt the city. I could live it with
a couple of nice restaurants, yes, and some nice plazas. Yes,
a couple of lass is a lovely outdoor areas. Some
couplestines and place boxes, some plant of boxes with some hedges.
It is responsible for these hdges. Yeah, these grisellinia are
just dying. Were front and center. So today's fact to
(01:09:08):
the day and the first of the Olympics themed week
is despite Greece being the home of the Olympics, I
never won a Winter Olympics middle and having placed in
the top ten since the Summer Olympics of nineteen o four.
Speaker 3 (01:09:20):
Fact of the.
Speaker 1 (01:09:21):
Day, day day day day, Do do do do do
do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do
Do Do Do Do Do Do Do do do do
do do.
Speaker 3 (01:09:36):
Play flits play.
Speaker 1 (01:09:40):
We're at Saturday nepaul on Surprising Lena, Saturday Today Saturday,
yep weekend sports watching August play our youngest and I
was sitting its shady and all it was. It's fair
to say August scene was getting traumced. Oh is that embarrassingly?
You can't got embarrassing? Sorry for I just say, because
it's not enjoyable having fun. No one has fun losing, No,
(01:10:02):

one of the main reasons I haven't like can continued
to play sport through my adult life.
Speaker 19 (01:10:09):
I hated little same you gotta win. I hated that
it's participating. No, it's not about winning. So I see
to shout out like this is like the time when
we were playing hockey. We were playing against hierarchy Planes College. Yeah,
and Natia, which you only know as a drive through
tea rooms, still had a good Leamington.
Speaker 1 (01:10:29):
Nasty, cracking, I can't speak to it lately, but beautiful.
I'm pretty sure the tea rooms are still open. Yeah,
stayed cheers, but wonderful Leamington's Okay, So they Huraochy Planes
College was right next to the turf, so they had
twenty four hour access to this. So they had an
amazing facility in the days and not everyone had a turf. No,
we didn't have a tear We had too many really
(01:10:52):
those tennis courts that schools used to have that wasn't
like a flat surface. It was like if you fell
over them, they toots shreds. Yeah, we had too many
of those marns with college. One of those could have
been turned into a miniature turf. Anyway, it's too late
to go back to the nineties and change these things. Uh.
So we didn't have a turf. We played on grass
yep or we had to travel to plan a turf.
They had it running excel t if they were amazing.
(01:11:13):
I'm hearing a lot of excuses. I'm hearing a lot
of excuse he comes to more so. I think there
was twenty minutes ago in the game and we were
losing nineteen nil, which is hiding. That is embarrassing. Yeah,
so I walked off the field and my mother packed shit.
Who was like, where are you going? I was like,
(01:11:34):
I'm done. No, you do not get back on there.
I was like, oh no, no, no, no where. There's
no way we can salvage anything other than a hiding.
I say, we call the game now. The refs like
we're not calling the game now. Well, I'm done with it. Personally,
I'll be in the car. So I just walked off,
grabbed my stuff and when I set in the car
and when it was over, I got racked up. I'm
(01:11:58):
not playing years not in that'd beat us. It sounds
like nineteen and twenty seven. No, it was a thrashing.
I wasn't hanging around for it. I was done, see
you later, guys. Goodluck. It was a goalie, I mean
old and blamed the goalie because there's a lot of
people to get through, to get through the players before
I got to the goalie. That's the old saying. You
can't be mad at the goalie.
Speaker 12 (01:12:17):
Though.
Speaker 1 (01:12:17):
The last line of defense. I had to get you first.
But now we got trounce and I was just like,
I'm not playing, and so I just left. And I
would put that up with one of my greatest moments
of ill sportsmanship. Yeah, if only it hadn't been for
the time at primary school we were playing rugby and
I didn't want to play anymore. So I walked again,
just sat on the sideline. Everyone's like, get back on there.
(01:12:40):
I was like nah. And then at the end of
the game, I wouldn't shake hands with anybody either, say
what you want to about born he's not a quitter.
I was just like, there's nothing enjoyable about getting smashed.
Speaker 3 (01:12:53):
Yeah, let's call it.
Speaker 1 (01:12:56):
Yeah, let's call it. And your wife had never heard that.
She was just She was like, I would have hit
the roof of everyone. You know, this is the thing
we try to raise kids not do. I said, no,
we trying to raisel kids, not to get hidings. But
what would you have done if August had just been like, oh,
well we're losing ten nell, I'm walking off. I would
have been like, ah, get on their cham come on,
don't give up. At the same time, just be like,
(01:13:17):
let's go, let's let's get out of here. Let's beat
everybody's about to be leaving the car park. We go
to jump that on them. But I wanted to talk
about Bebel's most unsportsmanly moments. Yes, sports personally sports, yeah,
sports mentally person moments, yeah, unsports personally moment when were
(01:13:40):
you just like map rub a chair sports Like, I
mean golf, you can cheat? Oh yeah, I did that too.
You disappear into the bush and you'd be like, I
can't even find my ball and they're just rolling out
a little bit, and like, I didn't even go in
the bush. Does I'm side of the fairway? Say it?
(01:14:01):
That's like a fluoro pink ball. You were using a
white one before.
Speaker 5 (01:14:05):
Me.
Speaker 1 (01:14:06):
I don't have white balls. It's floral point. Do they
actually use like, you know, mini parts of floro balls?
So they use floral balls in actual golf. You can
if you want. Would I'd use a fluoro green I
think green? No people, her dad's a greens keeper. She
grew up on a golf course.
Speaker 2 (01:14:23):
Yeah, we'd go collect them, and I only play with
the pink ball. It's easier to see depending on what
kind of day it is, If it's a sunny.
Speaker 6 (01:14:30):
Day, like too brighton.
Speaker 1 (01:14:32):
When I see like golf on the news and they're
like and they hit it. A camera doesn't even know.
No one sees the ball, Like the camera member just
goes yeah, un mooves the camera and then you think
you're bad because you can't see the ball.
Speaker 6 (01:14:44):
It's not even it's floral balls for the wind.
Speaker 1 (01:14:47):
Okay, oh that's good to know. All right, Well I
had a hundred dance at him. We want to take
your calls now. It takes through nine to six nine sex.
What was your greatest unsportsmanly moment. We want to know
from you this morning, your unsportsmanly moment that maybe you're
not proud of. Maybe you're willing to stand by like
Vaughn constantly walking off the field after being thrashed. Yeah,
I'm not having fun. You told me this is all
(01:15:08):
about having fun. But it's about the Vaughn. It's about
the team or good luck to them, good luck to
them that one man. This is why don't I don't
think you've thriven a team environment name no name, called
an island in the past. I am an island in
the stream. So we want to know from you. You
run sportsmanly moments. Someone said I took a spar I
loosened the spark plug at my opponent's motorbike during rider's grief,
(01:15:32):
and because I knew I'd only win the way race
if they didn't race. So of course they get out
there and it's oh my god, it's not fighting properly.
Also embarrassing if they then got off their bike, tied
in this spark place and still beat you, Yeah, that'd
be really embarrassing. We were getting a hiding and water polo.
One of the girls grabbed my swimsuit and ripped it,
and that was the last time. I turned around and
smacked her in the face. I've always heard it's grabby
(01:15:53):
and ready. Yeah.
Speaker 10 (01:15:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:15:56):
My dad stood on the sideline clapping like a maniac
when it happened. My daughter's team has won one game
this football season. Every other game Sea she has some
sort of mouthdown. Been the manager of the team. I
can't back her up. I've got to stay mutual. And
they're in the top league in New Zealand. Okay, I
see in my mind this was an eight year old, yes, sir,
(01:16:19):
as a national league Emma, what was your most unsporting moment.
Speaker 16 (01:16:24):
Okay, I came from an Olympic city. We coasted Olympics
ninety eight four, and you know after that, figga skating
was really big and I used to do figure skating
and there was this person who was just simply better
than most of us because she was just talented.
Speaker 10 (01:16:41):
And I used to take the shoelace that like.
Speaker 16 (01:16:43):
Completely take them out, not just like cut them or something.
And then she would just come and she just couldn't
train because she had no shoelaces.
Speaker 1 (01:16:51):
So you would talk to shoelaces, steal them. You wouldn't
just leave them besides, so she'd be delayed. You were
just stealing.
Speaker 16 (01:16:57):
No, no, we just take them out completely. And you
know you have a protector on a like a you
know the bottom of the shops, and we used to
take that and she was just like, oh my god,
I just like wear my shoelaces. It's like, how can
you pep for gating shoelaces And it was like, of course,
you can't shoelace because.
Speaker 1 (01:17:17):
You can't get this wow. And so that would be
the only way you could win is if she was
out of the competition with no shoelace.
Speaker 16 (01:17:25):
In said, and you know, like she couldn't train, and
of course ice skating is just you know, it's really
an ars. You know, you have to put a lot
a lot of hours and you know, and or we
used to have a socks which are like really nice
big woolen kind of socks that goes over it, and
we would just tide them. I would just hide it
from her.
Speaker 1 (01:17:45):
I mean they even cost her an Olympic gold because
she might have been on.
Speaker 16 (01:17:50):
You know, when I went back, like from New Zealand
to my home city first time in like twenty five years,
we were talking about it and I just yet to.
Speaker 3 (01:17:58):
Her it was me.
Speaker 16 (01:17:59):
She said, no, you would never do it to me.
It's like, yes, I would, and I'd do it again.
Speaker 1 (01:18:05):
You had never Where are your laces right now?
Speaker 16 (01:18:08):
We've been praying for thirty five years if we just
laugh about it now.
Speaker 1 (01:18:12):
But I'm like, yeah, that is wild.
Speaker 3 (01:18:16):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (01:18:17):
Emma, thank you. Which you want about your moments of
poor sportsmanship, I've had a few, probably worst up my sport,
to be honest, yeah, and some messages in shocking behavior,
there's some mind blowing I want. I once Teddy punched
a girl during a netball game. She has been rude
(01:18:37):
and I've had enough, so straight up puncher and the
dem I'm not condoning a teddy punch, but yeah, sounds
like she was being quite rude. High school football, high
school girls football was a minefield for hormonal girls, just
enough contact to be able to get away with stuff,
really leave it all outut there on the field. I
ended up yellow carded after a girl kicked my ankle
and that was a straw that broke the camel's back
(01:18:58):
and I rugby tackled it to the ground. Yellow card. Okay,
somebody said my unsportsmanly moment where we were playing hockey
on the grass at high school and opposition girl had
no boots or socks. Now, she shouldn't have been on
the field. That's insanity. It's just late the eighties or something.
Speaker 3 (01:19:15):
But I told it.
Speaker 1 (01:19:16):
Probably, but I told my team to always aim for
her feet because she'd get hurt, and obviously her feet
were away from the team.
Speaker 8 (01:19:24):
Yesh.
Speaker 1 (01:19:25):
I always been to music, and my mom forced me
onto a netbook called at eight to try to encourage
some sportsmanship. The ball came at me and I didn't
catch a hit. Man. I just burst into tears and
I refused to stop crying until somebody took me off
the court and I never played sport again. Wow, swimming
days in high school always had my period. Yeah, one
(01:19:45):
of those had my period days. I was playing hockey
when I was in high school. I couldn't score any
as the same girl kept getting the ball away from me,
so I smacked her anchored my hockey stack, calling on
purpose when the ball was nearby. But I was like,
oh my god, I'm so sorry that such an accident.
Speaker 3 (01:20:00):
I'm so sorry, you know, the terrible.
Speaker 1 (01:20:03):
Just think full well done, doing it just to get
one pass. My partner raced street stocks. He was winning
his race, so another Auckland car chased them down and
rolled him safe to say, calm, I got that driver
when his wife in all about his duty cheating escapades
all over Facebook and on on stock racing pages. Wow,
scandal in the stock community happened right around in a circle.
(01:20:30):
I'm not prepared to confirm or deny this, but deep
heat may have made its way onto the bottom of
my rugby jersey in my playing day so that I
could wipe it into the eyes of the opposition at
the bottom of a ruck. I played hockey for a
team in the whited up and this back always smacks
the ball really high, which you're not allowed to do.
So the player defending, who looked at the ref and
(01:20:53):
been like waiting for the call, like how are you
going to just keep lett him to do this? They
never did it. So the player threw the ball at
the ref and when I went past, the ref's head said,
that's what it's like if you ripped the fingers, walked off,
never came back. It's good stuff. I mean, fair point,
fair point ref cool eyeball, it's dangerous. I was getting
(01:21:13):
we were getting owned at a first fifteen match at
St Andrew's College in christ Church. Proceeded to force change
our flanker to my position. Lock came off the side
of the scrum, tracked the ball to the winger absolutely
annihilated them over the sideline into spectators for good measure.
When I got up, I shoved his head into the
ground and ripped the fingers of the crowd that were
supporting them as I ran back onto the field, carried
(01:21:34):
away the tackle. I think the tackles spoken off. No
need for violence here, naughty and unsportsmanly.
Speaker 11 (01:21:48):
Oh did you tell me.
Speaker 1 (01:21:50):
That was TuS, that was to tum tums.
Speaker 4 (01:21:53):
Heay, guys, I reckon it was the most fun to
be the head on a show.
Speaker 1 (01:21:56):
Not not for me. I don't know where even going
where even you haven't been here long, have you?
Speaker 2 (01:22:03):
No?
Speaker 1 (01:22:03):
I haven't No.
Speaker 4 (01:22:04):
If you were listening and you had fun, won't you
give us a little review in a rating
