Though an interior designer, this is probably a little bit
too late for me. But an interior designer has given
a list of things that immediately make your home look cheap.
And I tell you what, there's one item on here.

Speaker 5 (02:16):
I would call this a Kiwi classic. Yeah, she's coming

Speaker 1 (02:23):
Then you are three times as cheap.

There is a interior designer who shears tips online for
interior design and you know how to make things look.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
Good, I know design sharing tips on.

Speaker 5 (02:42):
Howth no, no interior design.

Speaker 4 (02:44):
And she has given a small list of things that
she thinks immediately cheapens the house. Let's go through them
and see if we have them from America.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
Because I'm looking. I've just been the tiktokk, just purely
judging on an aesthetic. She's got cheap ass blinds. She's
those cheap ten foil blinds that you lower and then
twist the thing and it shuts them. Venetian blinds. Yeah
they're Venetian blinds. Yeah, yeah, you do not like those.

Speaker 4 (03:10):
I think she's Australian. I think she's Australian. She's Australian's Australia.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
She's Australian with Venetians with Venisians, and I'll say her, yeah,
her immediate style.

Speaker 5 (03:21):
We've got white walls, we've got a white chair, We've
got you know.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
We've got laminated floorboards, which I've got. But I'm also
not out there being like right, nothing wrong with these things.

Speaker 4 (03:30):
But anyway, here's here's her little list. A fridge of magnets.

Speaker 5 (03:35):
We've got some magnets in our fridge.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
We see, these are the things that make your house cheap.

Speaker 4 (03:41):
Okay, we stopped once our kitchen was finished renovating because
we'd put so much money into the kitchen that it
was like normal magnets, we.

Speaker 1 (03:48):
See, good body magnets. What if you've had a really
good magnet? I kind of like, I know, yeah, because
your parents had them for ages, they had everywhere they went. Yes,
I kind of like that. Yeah, same, so cool. It's
a fun way to express yourself. Do you have magnets
on your fresh No? We stick a lot of like
notes and stuff up there. Yeah, that's we get a
billet's like a family. That's where the things go.

Speaker 4 (04:11):
Okay, well, there you go a plastic shower caddy. So
if you don't have like an in built shelf or something.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
In yourself if you don't have anul shelf. Yeah, I
realized that not everybody has an indoor shelf, and on
other places have had a plastic shower care same.

Speaker 4 (04:30):
I think this is the only home that I haven't,
and it's because we built the shower.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
Yeah, plastic shower caddies. You prefer the corner ones corner,
the corner, hang over the corner corner, some big suction. Though.

Speaker 4 (04:43):
When I was at Uni, I definitely had the one
that hung around the neck of the A lot of
stress on the lower, stress on the neck and then
you're putting one leter tubs of this and that or
it used to The classic was always if you had
a shower.

Speaker 1 (04:56):
Over a bath, just put the rim of the bath
cover that your raids, just everything around the bar.

Speaker 5 (05:02):
By the way, do I smell of rad ox? I
haven't noticed. Did you shower last night out of body wash?
And we're covered in paint?

Speaker 1 (05:09):
Aaron?

Speaker 5 (05:09):
So you use the man body wash?

Speaker 4 (05:11):
So Aaron was like, we've got no body wash, and
I was like, I'm sure there's a backup somewhere.

Speaker 5 (05:14):
I went through the cupboards. All I found is a
mission to sniff burg old rad ox.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
Should I meet you halfway for a sniff? We're gonna
meet Okay, No, purely neutral? Okay, you smell right. You
love the coconut rad docks, don't you?

Speaker 4 (05:33):
The one that smells like men men?

Speaker 1 (05:37):
That's blue, right, Geller is blue? That made the tea
tree and the one that really tangled. I don't know
it wasn't that one. Okay? Too many cushions on a beard?
Shut up?

Speaker 5 (05:48):
Lost plastic gazebos. Does she say how many of the
right amount of cushions on a bed?

Speaker 4 (05:53):
She just did two minutes. Too much plastic gazebos. You
know your outdoor areas. I love popping up a gazebo.

Speaker 6 (06:00):
Leave it up.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
Because the wind and the sun will destroy it in
a matter of weeks.

Speaker 4 (06:04):
Here's the item of contention here for me. Yeah, why
are clothes horses?

Speaker 1 (06:08):
See?

Speaker 5 (06:09):
I've got like three of these? You do you live
in an apartment?

Speaker 1 (06:12):
You supposed to drink the sheets?

Speaker 5 (06:15):
Wherever I lived, I would have these.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
They are the I think one of the best inventions
dude ever where you sink you like them? The ones
that are a frame with the wings out, yeah, and
the support arms for the wings. Ye kiwi invention. I
always thought they were, but maybe that's just because they've
always been around. Had that I've just opened up because
this is the next thing I want to say about them.

(06:37):
Isn't it weird when you go to somebody's house and
they have the arms that are different thing, Yeah, like
a different arms flat and the degrees because you can
do the legs really like wide, they have them up high.
You have them like that. Yeah, and then the arms
it would just be and you always get no every
now and then I put because I've got one that

(06:57):
with arms can go up forty five so they can
be like a sheet. And then I do it. Forg
got a sheet because we don't have a washing line
at the moment, so we've got to do our.

Speaker 5 (07:05):
Sheets on that. Oh my god, so good.

Speaker 4 (07:08):
I mean, I don't leave ours out all the time.
We tuck them under the bed. You can hide them away,
slide them away.

Speaker 3 (07:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (07:14):
I just I don't respect this woman. I'll say it.
I like a fridge full of magnets, and I like
a house full of clothing horses.

Speaker 5 (07:20):
And you're not against the shower caddy.

Speaker 4 (07:22):
Do you know how many clothes you can put on
a clothing horse? Oh my god, a thousand items. They
should have items.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
They should have a competition with these clothes horses.

Speaker 5 (07:32):
Socks on the little bit.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
On the side, on the side for either two small
socks like two eggs or sock you'll do one.

Speaker 5 (07:46):
But unders down the bottom right.

Speaker 1 (07:48):
Yeah, sometimes I do shorts, sweet wickable undies on the side.

Speaker 5 (07:55):
You get, she gets side, you get a whole bar.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
No, I don't get a hold. I go with my
box of briefs. I go half and I go them over. Okay,
one pig in the middle, by the way, By the way,
she doesn't always peg on the clothes source and then
the clothes fall off.

Speaker 4 (08:13):
I don't always pick on the clothes horse. Sometimes the
whole clothes horse will top all.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
Yeah, towels, no need to peg. The weight will hold
them on there, but anything else can slip off the
clothes horse. I also think great debate.

Speaker 5 (08:24):
The spin off the yeah.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
Journalistic place, they need to do one of those like
classical Kiwi investigations and did we invent that specific type
of clothes source.

Speaker 4 (08:34):
It's almost Kiwiana. It's almost like the buzzy.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
Bee and those white plastic cheers. Yeah, it's basically anything
from the warehouse in.

Speaker 5 (08:43):
The early days.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
Fledgeborn and Hailey. Now Vorn, you love water blasting. I do.
It's one of my absolute favorites. You have from time
to time put up like time lapses. Yep, I love
watching a water blasting timeline.

Speaker 5 (08:59):
We've been doing a bit of around the house. Actually
borrowed Vaughn's.

Speaker 1 (09:01):
Vaughns is very powerful because we've got it's a hunder
powered care Yeah, it's got a honder engine. It's a
can doesn't around you do you do this in real life?
But you have also played this game that I'm about
to talk about. Also, there is I have mow lawns regularly,
and there's a lawn knowing simulator that I've played too

(09:23):
frustrate Like Powerwash Simulator is a game that you can
play where you you wash things, water blast. Yeah, you
water blast things. I mean you could literally be doing
this in real life. Yeah, but not everybody can not everybody?

Speaker 5 (09:37):
Well yeah, and I couldn't.

Speaker 4 (09:40):
You could go borrow one and head down to a
local park and water blast the hell out of it.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
Well, you've got to find a water source, you've got to.

Speaker 7 (09:46):
Have a.

Speaker 1 (09:48):
Well, Uh, they've done some research into this game. And
it's potential benefits for mental health. The research found that
playing the game cleaning the dirty objects with a powerwasher
simulation can help reduce stress and anxiety while promoting relaxation.

Speaker 4 (10:05):
Do you think it's because it's there's no like bad
guy coming the earning bad guy is like and moss. Yeah,
you know there's no like because I I don't like gaming.
In part it's because of the anxiety, you know, like
running away from you.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
About to be there? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (10:21):
Or is this like low stakes, low pressure?

Speaker 1 (10:23):
Just yeah. They said that participants reported feeling calmer and
more focused after playing the game, suggesting that simple repetitive
activities and games could have like therapeutic effects.

Speaker 4 (10:35):
It's kind of like how I love watching wash, watching
the rug washing Instagram.

Speaker 5 (10:40):
Yes, out of the mud.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
I think they're muddying up. Of course they were.

Speaker 4 (10:46):
They finding these mud soddens every single.

Speaker 5 (10:50):
Ride, very very filthy road, very wet and muddy.

Speaker 4 (10:54):
But god, then they get all the SuDS on it,
and it is it's very relaxing.

Speaker 5 (10:58):
Yeah, it's like watching people cut sand.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
Yeah, but do you feel the same after you actually
want Yeah? Yeah, very very satisfying to look. Especially you've
got to take it before and after, and if you
can time lapse, because sometimes you finish and you're like, oy,
that's clean, But then you need to look back on
what it looked like beforehand to be like that is
a world.

Speaker 5 (11:16):
Like when it dries. Yeah, yeah, okay.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
That's good. And then you got to get that if
it's ward, you're going to get that stayed on. And
I wouldn't recommend water blasting every deck, no, because you
can tear up the ward. You can really game not
in the game big wide nozzle, No, I think you
can in the game. Can you use different water blasting surfaces?
When I played concrete piece of cake, that's wrong.

Speaker 5 (11:37):
That's a bit of stress for you. It's a stress A.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
Nice wide nozzle when you water blasting, you don't want to.

Speaker 4 (11:43):
Do it, sort of a comical C and B. You know, yeah,
the water blaster thinking that you're going to go over
it and it's still there.

Speaker 3 (11:49):
Permanent play Splitchborne and Hailey.

Speaker 4 (11:55):
I was writting an opinion piece about the fact that
New Zealand summer is nearly here and that means that
we're going to be hanging out in our togs.

Speaker 5 (12:02):
A lot more often than we're do in winter.

Speaker 1 (12:05):
Great.

Speaker 5 (12:05):
You know, I don't know about you, but I don't
rock around in my bikini.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
I'm not often just doing quick little jobs and my
togs over winter. No no, no, and then dipping into
the pool between the hard hot chops.

Speaker 5 (12:16):
Exactly only in summer.

Speaker 4 (12:18):
And the sopny piece was basically about how why is
it so hard to find a good swimsuit, especially for women?

Speaker 1 (12:27):
I was going to say, this is a for the women, right,
I mean, I mean, just find some great shorts.

Speaker 5 (12:32):
I just swim in my gym shorts for the last
few years.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
Year, so does Aaron.

Speaker 4 (12:35):
If you've got a good pair of gym shorts that
fits well, they drive fast, it's fine. Whereas the women
we've got more in general plumps and hi bumps to
try to hold in this stretchy thing. And then, as
of late, as noted in this article, and I completely agree,
the style has been that like real eighties high cut up,

(12:59):
the took.

Speaker 5 (13:00):
Us and the Frocus real high.

Speaker 4 (13:03):
Cut style right where if you want to go to
the beach, you've got to spend ninety minutes removing all
of your body here if you don't want it to
be out on display too.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
Because it's not going to cover it. We've just actually
heard from Garnier they would like you to stop using
fructus to refer to that now. I said, the frocus
I'm talking about the front took us. So they said,
they've got it for shampoo and conditioner and you can't
have it to describe it.

Speaker 5 (13:28):
No, not frictus up here.

Speaker 1 (13:31):
Okay, frocus okay.

Speaker 4 (13:32):
But I'm sure Carwen and Shannon gurlies, you would have
experienced the harrowing that I have whipped and changing rooms before.
Do you know what the issue is is when they
do joint sizes, They're like, here's a twelve top and bottom.

Speaker 1 (13:50):
I said, who is a top and bottom? No?

Speaker 5 (13:52):
No, no, I need a four size.

Speaker 1 (13:54):
Difference between my top and bottom. About sets, That's what
I mean, that's what they not sell.

Speaker 5 (13:59):
Like in places we're.

Speaker 4 (14:01):
Kind of turning towards as a society understanding that women
aren't always the exact same size. So if you have
like a slimmer bottom and a heavier top, or for me,
a heavier bottom and I used to have a slimmer top,
then you would always be in trouble.

Speaker 5 (14:18):
You'd have a saggy bottom.

Speaker 4 (14:19):
Or a saggy top and you would have to find
your mate who was your opposite. It was the worst,
or genuinely not be able to wear your own bikini top.

Speaker 1 (14:28):
Or just choose which side's going to come out in
the water. You know, yeah, it's not going to survive.

Speaker 5 (14:36):
One.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
I have this.

Speaker 4 (14:39):
I've talked about this before and like non spawn, but
I've got this really long torso. I'm so tall, but
I don't have very long legs. I'm from crotch to
neck that's where the length is. And so I used
to always have this thing where you try it on
and once it met the crotch and you'd stretch the top,
you'd either be up or pulled down. So same thing

(14:59):
A for a one. Yeah right, So I found a
company called Andy Swim. It's an Aussie brand that have
special long tours.

Speaker 5 (15:08):
What is the tagline? Is it for long tourso people
they do.

Speaker 4 (15:12):
It's so funny because I have three I'm in a
group of three very close friends all suffer long torso
syndrome and not a real LT is. We've got that,
We've got the list and we one day one of
us just stumbled upon this website. We're like girls, and
we bought this whole range A N D I E
swim do is it?

Speaker 1 (15:31):
Is it just I? Or is it no? I don't
know unless it is a different one andy A and
D I E Swim. What's your tagline?

Speaker 4 (15:39):
You can go in and you can select either regular
you lt long to long tours. Oh, there you go,
But that then you've got one, because then you don't
you're not getting widgied or boobs popping.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
Out right, And then it's like, what do you do?
What are you planning to do in these togs? Lounging, girls, trip, honeymoon,
work treat Do you want to be active multipurpose chasing
toddlers or are you currently pregnant? How great's that?

Speaker 4 (16:06):
Just don't do what I've done in the past, which
is be so scarred by the process of buying togs
that I've just walked into a shop held it up
like this sort of like with my hands and on
that'll do. Bought it and then realize you've got to
wear them on TV, say, presenting a TV breakfast show
while you're snorkeling and the corimandel and you haven't tried

(16:26):
it on, and then you put it on because you
think it's just a black one piece and you realize
it's not LT friendly.

Speaker 1 (16:32):
It's not.

Speaker 4 (16:32):
It's not for the lips, the loss, and realize that
you're you're all out.

Speaker 1 (16:37):
You're showing everybody your breakfast on breakfast breakfast on breakfast television.
Also in the dressing, it has been kind to yourself.
Everybody is a beach body. And remember, leave your undies
on if you're going to throw them all. Yes, unless
you're definitely buying them though, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 4 (16:52):
Young even when they've got the little plastic gusset protector
in there.

Speaker 5 (16:56):
Leave your rundies on here, or at least that's what
will tell them.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
That's what we tell you.

Speaker 2 (17:01):
Why play z MS Fletchborne and Haley play z MS
Fletchboard and Haley blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.

Speaker 3 (17:11):
This is the top six.

Speaker 5 (17:15):
Lots of chat about unemployment. It's hard.

Speaker 1 (17:20):
People are going overseas for better work opportunities.

Speaker 4 (17:23):
Now, obviously no one wants to be unemployed at the moment,
but wasn't that the discussion during.

Speaker 5 (17:28):
Last year at the peak of cost of.

Speaker 4 (17:31):
Living and the idea of getting the recession to stop
us to increase unemployment or something, and it was like, oh,
that's an awful yeah, because then people there then you
stop spending money.

Speaker 1 (17:42):
And it's the people who are most likely affected of
the people that didn't have the discretionary income in the.

Speaker 5 (17:46):
First peace, which is why I didn't understand that.

Speaker 1 (17:49):
Yeah, top paying jobs and companies are struggling to fill them.
Yeah they are. So I've got the top six jobs.
How much they paid and how hard can they be?
Are these real?

Speaker 5 (17:59):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (17:59):
Yeah, this is an article a number six on the list. Plumbers. Yeah,
that's one of the jobs that people are there's plumbing
jobs going. Yeah, and the average salary for a plumber
seventy seven and a half thousand dollars a year.

Speaker 5 (18:13):
Not bad.

Speaker 1 (18:14):
You've got to train though, Yeah. But all you really
need to remember is poos and water will flow downhill.
So I think it's as long as the pipes are like,
as long as the pipes are going down the pipes,
where the pipe starts for example of sink, and where
it ends, for example a septic tank, there's just got
to be down right. I think we should issue an

(18:35):
apology to everyone whose career is easy.

Speaker 5 (18:38):
I can pipes and stuff all the time.

Speaker 1 (18:39):
It's fun. It's like, yeah, and who's had quite a
few issues with pipes?

Speaker 4 (18:44):
Actually, out of it all of us pipe the issue
with the pipe and almost they weren't running down.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
That's the call on the job training, right, Okay again apologies. Yeah, yeah,
I plumbed out well, not out house, but I've plumbed
like though lifestyle block for all the troughs and stuff. Yeah,
it's cow.

Speaker 4 (19:04):
The trough for a cow is not quite like plumbing
a lovely bathroom for all the trough's just a bath
really okay.

Speaker 1 (19:11):
Number five on the list of the top six high
paying jobs the companies a struggling to fill in how
to get them and how to keep them. At number
five is electricians average salary ninety thousand dollars a year.

Speaker 5 (19:22):
Yeah, the spark isn't making bank. I wouldn't want to
do that. It's a job. I don't let you keep myself.

Speaker 1 (19:26):
That's all You've got to remember. Don't touch the red
wire and the black wire at the same time. Than that, now,
I don't reckon it is always make sure the fuse
is off when you're wiring it up, and don't put
your finger on the black and the red one at
the same time.

Speaker 4 (19:40):
You remember when I took a win to go turn
on a light once and it was hot, but also
water was pouring out behind it.

Speaker 1 (19:46):
What would you do in that? Because your partmer didn't
make sure the pipes were pointed right, so there was
a plumber issue. It's a plumber issue. How did they
want to get in the roof?

Speaker 5 (19:54):
I don't know, Okay, how to get in the walls exactly?

Speaker 1 (19:58):
Okay, electricians, Okay, I will add I'll addendum to the
to the electricians don't touch the red wire and the
black rot at the same time, and water doesn't mix
with power. You guys just earned ninety thousand dollars a year.
Number four on the last of the top six high
paying jobs that companies are struggling the fill and how
to get them. Number four is diesel mechanics average salary
ninety five thousand dollars a year, And being a deesel

(20:21):
mechanic is just like being a petrol mechanic, but a
bit smellier, and the machines are bigger.

Speaker 5 (20:25):
Yeah, I think there's a bit.

Speaker 1 (20:27):
Also, these jobs are not I mean a lot of
excuses over here. These are all the jobs at school.
They were like, no, you need to go.

Speaker 5 (20:35):
Don't do that, don't do that. That's a that's a
bum job.

Speaker 1 (20:38):
And you're like, then they can bang men. The kids
that knew how to like how cars and stuff worked
at school And they're like, no, it's impointing you got
a university and study Shakespeare because I don't think it is.
And they're like, well, okay, loser, And now that already
does mechanics and that much money. But again, it's easy
to be one because it's just like being a picture
mechanic that's normally out and the machines a bigger Smelli. Yeah,

(20:59):
the machine a bit horny, it right. Trucks, diggers hot,
bulldozers hot, pretty horny stuff. Number three on the list
of the top six jobs that companies are struggling to
fill and how to get them. These are all high
paying jobs train layers. Train layers are the same kind
of the same sort of salary area as plumbers and electricians.

(21:24):
Like the high yep, you know, just under hount. They
have to remember that, they remember who runs downhill. People
like drains underground. Again, I think there's more to drain
laying than.

Speaker 4 (21:33):
The Actually, if I had, you know, with my drains,
I like them to be underground.

Speaker 1 (21:37):
That's where you put a s out of sight, out
of mind. And again, like you'll remember from the plumbers,
who runs downhill runs down? Okay, correct, were the assistance
of water. So if you just put your drain on
a little bit of an angle, there, yea lovely. I
got a ten degree angle on a drain. That feels
about right. It feels good. It feels good. The water
roll run away as easy as there. Tick. Another job,

(21:57):
easy peasy. Number two on the list of the tops
x high paying jobs that companies a struggling fell and
how to get them. Number two is charted structural engineers.
What the heck is there? It's so and the next
step up from a structural engineer it's a chartered one.
They have to do other courses and stuff. The average
salary forty thousand dollars a year, okay, some more because

(22:18):
of how highly sought after they are. You know what,
the answer is, easy pease you have this job. Don't
put heavy things to fore hundred and forty thousand. Okay, sorry,
cause I.

Speaker 4 (22:27):
Was like you were you said, I don't think for
all that studying that.

Speaker 1 (22:33):
That's particularly you don't even need to study. You just
don't put heavy things too high without more heavy stuff
underneath it to pyramids again, I think it's pyramids.

Speaker 5 (22:42):
I don't know if that's you.

Speaker 1 (22:43):
Name another building has lasted longer than the pyramids, and
the key was having more heavy stuff at the bottom
than at the top. You've got a very good point there. Yeah, dude,
I'm for good points.

Speaker 5 (22:52):
Fat base fat that I have a big fat base.

Speaker 1 (22:55):
Yeah, fat fat base. There you go, one hundred and yeah,
number one of us.

Speaker 5 (23:01):
But all you can provide is pyramids.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
Yeah, what more do you need? Yeah, you're true. Hey,
I know you can do it.

Speaker 4 (23:07):
I'm gonna do at a lovely family home. You can
do a block money and to see you at a pyramid,
you could do a block.

Speaker 1 (23:13):
But you've got to remember that the heaviest stuff's got
to be a bottom, okay, and if you want to
go high, you've got to have more heavy stuff at bottom. Right,
and number one on the list of the top sex
jobs that are high paid in this country that companies
are struggling in a field financial controllers. I googled what
this meant. Yeah, a financial controller essentially is a company's
lead accountant. So do don't spend more money than you

(23:37):
earn tad. Now I'm also qualified to earn between one
hundred and fifty two hundred thousand dollars a year throw
and all you've got to do is be like, hey,
stop sending that much money and earn more. Yeah, du
next year is pretty straightforward, So straightforward, and people going
to Australia for these jobs.

Speaker 5 (23:55):
But as straightforward as a pyramid. Exactly fat base, fat base,
last forever. I'm a structural engineer. That is today's up
six z.

Speaker 3 (24:05):
Ms Fletched, Vaughn and Hayley.

Speaker 1 (24:08):
Now, I've got a lot of time for the rural posty.
Growing up, we are always come Christmas time. We gave
John John Lawrence, I can remember his name. Who was
our rural posty growing up, Okay, always giving a box
of scorched darmonds or a box of roses. Was he
like Postman Pant? Did he come along with his cat? No,
there was no cat, but we caught him Postman pad.

(24:28):
He had a red ute and had a canopy on
the back. I can picture it. And if he had
like something that he couldn't fit in the letter box.
He drive it up the driveway and he always like
put on a little show voices.

Speaker 5 (24:40):
Oh god, it sounds like you if you whether were made.

Speaker 1 (24:45):
Redundant and hat. Wait, here's the bad thing. There's there's
bloody government. We've got a thing about cutting their days back.
If you've seen how much it costs to post a letter.

Speaker 4 (24:56):
Yeah, there's all not having mailboxes and just having a
collective mailbox for a collective.

Speaker 1 (25:01):
Right, No, thank you, Chris Finlayson. Anyway, I want to
tell you about our rural posty. The girls have done
another batch of their candles, and I.

Speaker 4 (25:09):
Saw the mountain of orders.

Speaker 5 (25:12):
So many, so many candles have been so watch out
a choyer.

Speaker 1 (25:16):
I recognize, watch out, we're coming one candle at the time,
I recognized some of the names from people that like
message on Instagram more like listen to the show, comment.

Speaker 4 (25:26):
On our because now they know that you know where
they live, and that feels I.

Speaker 1 (25:29):
Locked up all of their girl addresses street and I
was like, that's a nice house. I'm mate, Robert, you've
crossed the line there. That's not what happened at all.
But Chrissy, our legendary posty, she came earlier in the
day and they weren't all packaged up, and she said,
I'll tell you what. I'll come back later, and I
assumed she meant come back in the van at the
end of the day. She came back at seven o'clock

(25:51):
at night in her own personal Ford falcon.

Speaker 5 (25:53):
Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (25:54):
And we loaded it up and I was like, I
even need to do this, and she's like, no, this way,
I can get them off at three o'clock in the morning.

Speaker 4 (26:00):
So there's no benefit of her. I know, Wow, that's generosity.

Speaker 1 (26:05):
I might have earned more than a box of scorched
Darmonds for that act a line.

Speaker 5 (26:08):
But what do you get your local poster?

Speaker 1 (26:09):
It's you're wrong than scorch.

Speaker 5 (26:11):
Because she told me, I said, do you get up
at three?

Speaker 1 (26:13):
She's like, I get up at two? Oh wow, I
to do five k's on my exorcycle because I'm sitting
in the van all day? Are you right? So I
don't think the woman that just told me she gets
up early to do some exercycle probably wants everyone giving
her a box of chocolate.

Speaker 5 (26:27):
Ever, she'll burn them off on the exercise. Exactly.

Speaker 1 (26:30):
I'm getting it out of the vans. No easy feet
is a bit of what about it?

Speaker 5 (26:34):
What about a what are in quick cools? Voucher for
a book she's got no time to read?

Speaker 1 (26:40):
When she's gonna read on her exercicle, she's probably like
one of those goes too hard on the exercise.

Speaker 4 (26:45):
What about a rebel sport voucher for some new shoes
for some new shows.

Speaker 5 (26:50):
You're not giving your two hundred dollars?

Speaker 1 (26:51):
Are you? No?

Speaker 5 (26:53):
No, she isn't it that much?

Speaker 1 (26:55):
Were you going from scorched arments to what how much
you want? To? What's the budget? I don't know. That's
kind of what what's appropriate? She's coming on her own
personal pick up your thing?

Speaker 4 (27:06):
What about a lovely batch of muffins?

Speaker 1 (27:10):
Always get the rural posty something. It's just what you do.

Speaker 5 (27:13):
Yeah right, I've never done it neither, really, I don't know.
I don't think everybody does.

Speaker 1 (27:20):
But just Jason the thing. My nanna used to do
the same post postman pat John. My nanna used to
make them like treats Russian. My mum does Russian fudge
for everyone, Russian fun. Yeah, real, Maybe just get her
a simple Yeah, I'm leaning away from food. I feel
like she was really telling me.

Speaker 5 (27:40):
What do you give it to give her one of
the candles?

Speaker 1 (27:42):
Give her a candle, and what about an m t
a vouchal for some fuel. That's the thing.

Speaker 4 (27:46):
If you give her a candle, it feels generous, but
actually she knows you even paid for it.

Speaker 5 (27:49):
An not free to make. We give her two candles.

Speaker 1 (27:53):
They're not free to make, but it's kind of free.

Speaker 4 (27:55):
There's no exchange of money here, No more march margins.

Speaker 1 (28:01):
Somebody said that she's driving a Ford Felcon. Sounds like
she's like a box of beers. Now that's true. Rural
posty here, my favorite gives a nice hand cream or
a homemade jam or chutney.

Speaker 5 (28:10):
Look, go make her some jam from the fruits of
your tree.

Speaker 1 (28:13):
She doesn't want your jam. I make good jam. Do
you know what? I recommend him for a boom of
feed crop next season? Lots of right will either you
go give her.

Speaker 5 (28:24):
A nice or something like that.

Speaker 4 (28:27):
Some back in England, whe leave beer on the dustbin
for the bin minute Christmas, I reckon a box of
beers and some nice born jam.

Speaker 1 (28:34):
Yeah, Proba, time to get out the old free candle.
Had a free candle that she knows that nice bottle
of wine. No, no, no, wine's too personal. Beers fine,
I gave someone wine at the weekend to say thank
you for something. It turns out that don't drink exactly.

Speaker 2 (28:50):
Yeah, plays it MS. Fletchborn and Haley plays it.

Speaker 1 (28:55):
Ms.

Speaker 3 (28:55):
Fletchborn and Hailey.

Speaker 5 (29:03):
It is so silly, silly, silly.

Speaker 1 (29:05):
That Hello, my name is wall Smith and it's nice
to meet you all. A little pole. How often do
you wash your clothes? Three options after everywhere, after two

(29:25):
or three wears or four plus wears. Now you've recently
changed your habits, Okay, city would back to everyone. Everywhere
you wear a T shirt for a few hours of
the day and you wash it.

Speaker 5 (29:39):
That's so I live.

Speaker 4 (29:40):
No, I've changed as well, because we live such a
segmented day. Yeah, the work and the gym and the home,
it's all different. And so I'll rock at T shirt
a couple of times.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
T shirts every time. Jeans, I don't even know when
I last wash these, and like, when you're in the house,
just wash them until.

Speaker 3 (29:59):
They're real bad.

Speaker 1 (30:00):
I only washed my jeans when they get a start
like a sauce stain.

Speaker 4 (30:03):
Yeah, you shouldn't wa wash the jeans that much. Undies
every wash, same bras maybe once a week. I changed though, yea,
I've got really sweety, sweaty presticles.

Speaker 5 (30:15):
Vaughn Allen Smith. Yes, Carl Peter Fletcher watch cheese.

Speaker 1 (30:20):
Ah. So the most popular one was after two or
three wears fifty six percent of people. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5 (30:27):
We're wasting water and we're rounding our clothes, especially now
so many places have water meters.

Speaker 4 (30:32):
Yeah, what are you speaking of? Can you believe this?
This is unbelieving. I woke up this morning at whatever
four twenty when it never went into the bathroom and
the tap was just running.

Speaker 5 (30:47):
What So I was like, spooky turned it off?

Speaker 4 (30:50):
And I hadn't gone up for a wee last night,
really good sleep, And so I woke Caroing up and
he got up for a wee while I was getting ready.
I said, you've left the tap on all night. He
was like, oh my god, how I did that? So wasteful.
Your children in Africa, who could have you know? As
my mother would have have washed them all. I could
have sent them a nice drinking.

Speaker 1 (31:09):
You might have been able to wash like four or
five of them. Have you updated to the new calculator,
the new where you are the calculators changed. I know
it tells you you're It's great, it tells you you're
What do you call that equation? It doesn't look and
update the screen. It's all written there now and it's

(31:29):
got a backspace.

Speaker 5 (31:30):
But now, what were you trying to work out?

Speaker 1 (31:32):
Cool? Well this is you might be thinking you're getting
distracted because fifty six percent of people said after two
or three wears, forty two percent said after everywhere, and
four some people said. One percent said after four plus
wis And I added that up on it comes to
ninety nine. Wow, forty two plus fifty six plus one
equals ninety nine. Now I looked at that and I
thought that's not right, and then I added it up

(31:53):
on a caaculator. Where's that other one percent? I don't
know one down?

Speaker 5 (32:00):
They're rounding, aren't they.

Speaker 1 (32:01):
Yeah, Bronte, you've got to wash your clothes.

Speaker 6 (32:04):
People.

Speaker 1 (32:05):
I went to union with a girl who didn't know
how to use a washing machine. She was a privileged child,
and she ended up smelling like poos straight poose. Wash
your clothes. That is not a great compliment. Yeah, that's
ruining your You think they're living in the lap of luxury.
You are ruining a human Yeah, by not teaching teaching
in the ways of the washing machine. Oh, you must
know how to use that. My daughter said, why does

(32:27):
your washing machine look different to Nana's Because Nana's got
a top loader and we've got a front load. Oh yeah,
I don't know why the two types of washing machines.
And I explained to her, what.

Speaker 4 (32:37):
A mean chat, what a cool chat.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
But oh my god, keep telling you so well. She's
not gonna go to university to smell like as Brande
said straight poos. Yeah, because she knows this is across
a different, loving washing machine. And I explained how to
use it. This is true, Hailey said. It depends on
and sucks of course after everywhere. Manka if you're not
but jeans, T shirts sniff test after.

Speaker 5 (33:01):
Worn and are all good and then goes through another round.
T shirts all just have a quick look for any
like stains, little sniff in the pit. Depends said Carrie.
Smelly work clothes every week.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
Totally agree, Yeah, hoodie, I work in and barely berey wash.

Speaker 5 (33:21):
It gets because it takes so long to bloody dry.

Speaker 1 (33:24):
It can't be. It's so sad when your hoodie loses
that nice fluff on the inside. Yeah, I'm a bit
of a mankey dairy Farmer, said Edward, and wear the
same clothes for the week, always change when he into
the house at night, But breakfast and lunch I'm in them. Yeah,
that's a long time to any stinky I'm assuming high vers. Yeah, Kirsty,
I voted for four plus. I don't sweat very much

(33:46):
at all and I don't get bo so my clothes
don't tend to smell, hence them.

Speaker 5 (33:51):
She must get such a long life out of your clothes.

Speaker 1 (33:54):
Yeah, lovely. If I sweat lights, I'll definitely wash them
straight away. It just needs pointing us to wash them
after every time. If they don't smell, is that gross? No,
I it's not. If you don't smell, if you don't
feel that they're dirty and you don't sweat, it's your
own body wild that she doesn't sweat. Yeah, huh, Summer said,
if it's standed a stinky washwash wash. Otherwise the two

(34:16):
kids and a fiance a drown in the washing. If
I a gym or sweat in them, then every single
weeir otherwise a little bit longer.

Speaker 5 (34:24):
Oh yeah, gym gears once.

Speaker 1 (34:26):
Yeah, Katie said, girls with wacky hormones understand the sweaty vibes.

Speaker 5 (34:30):
Oh you know me.

Speaker 4 (34:31):
Yesterday I was intoxicatingly hot. Today not so much.

Speaker 1 (34:36):
Up and down. It's weird because the ecorn temperature is
exactly the same.

Speaker 4 (34:40):
It's not today's coolers yesterday. Yesterday said at twenty five
degrees the whole shot. It was literally I was flushing
with heat.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
It was awful.

Speaker 5 (34:49):
Today it's nice and frosty, just.

Speaker 1 (34:51):
How I like it. And Devin said, after everywhere, I
have a one year old pretty self explanatory there and
the baby getting baby all over all over the clothes,
play Zim's fletched corn.

Speaker 4 (35:03):
And we've got a magnolia tree in our driveway right
and it's got sort of boxed in. It has all
this crep down the bottom, and it wasn't looking great.
It was to get out all that stuff make it
look nice. But growing on the tree was a stag
horn fern and apparently something it's like a They call
it staghorn fern because the leaves of it, the frongs

(35:26):
look like staghorns like that, slightly antlers, right right, So
there was growing all over it looked a right mess.
Apparently this is what people do. They put coconut husks
or something. You were saying, born, Yeah, it's to protect
the trunk. And it's like because sometimes they look nice, exactly.
People don't like a beer looking trunk. And you said
all the time in the in the Islands, right, people

(35:47):
whack those on and new in New Zealand, it's a
popular thing to put those ferns. There's a few different
sort of plants you can do, and they like grow
around the tree and they I agree. I like a
clean trunk.

Speaker 5 (35:55):
I like a clean trunk. And Maggie's Garden World here,
isn't it.

Speaker 1 (35:59):
It is touch one of you because I'll be rude
if we're doing classic Maggie's Garden one Meggie, Okay, you're
that other guy. You're the old gay guy that does flowers.
Old you're the old.

Speaker 4 (36:12):
Gay guy that does flowers. You know lots about roses.
Now ask your mom for a cheat sheet.

Speaker 1 (36:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (36:17):
Yeah, So we had one of these and I didn't
like the look of it. And it's been there the
whole time, and I was like, we're tiding up all
the outsiders. You know, I'm going to finally remove it.
So I start sawing at this thing and it took.
It was actually one of those things where I was like,
I'm going to do this in the city minutes and
I was like, I'm so over it.

Speaker 5 (36:31):
Wait, you're sawing something of your tree?

Speaker 1 (36:34):
Yeah? Yeah, I just said, you cut away and it's
layers and layers and layers of this thing it's been
for years.

Speaker 4 (36:39):
Then through there's all these holes and sort of woven bits.

Speaker 1 (36:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (36:44):
Then I spot a really big with her and I
was like, oh my god, I love them.

Speaker 1 (36:50):
I do too. I'm a huge fan of them.

Speaker 5 (36:52):
They're so great.

Speaker 1 (36:53):
Do they bite you though?

Speaker 4 (36:55):
Well he kind of poked his head out and I
was like, yeah, little mate, and one of the whole tree. No,
amongst all this mess that's grown on the tree that
I was hacking at. Now, obviously I don't want to
kill one of these things because we're they're they're native
to New Zealand and they're there's special so I yeah, but.

Speaker 1 (37:12):
There's like a million of them, right, Oh, calm.

Speaker 4 (37:14):
Down, No, this is why we're with her hotels on
the native bushes, right. So now I'm really trying to
hit the e because remember, it all came out that
we were saying wetter for ages and that means poot.

Speaker 1 (37:27):
I did not know.

Speaker 4 (37:28):
I thought CUA was pooh, yeah, it was something like that.
And then wed A Workshop was like, oh my god,
poop workshop. Anyway, so these weird were coming out and
I was like, okay, great, and so I sort of
moved him massive thing.

Speaker 1 (37:40):
I moved him and put him onto the ground. You
picked him up gardening gloves or no beer hands. I'm
not afraid of them.

Speaker 4 (37:45):
Which is so crazy that I'm afraid of mt h
is to the point where I can't say the word
what are these massive crawley brown lat things?

Speaker 5 (37:52):
Packed him up and I just put them on the corner.

Speaker 4 (37:53):
Because she's it is killed out. I think it's got
something to do with me being mad. Anyway, So I
picked him up, put him on the ground.

Speaker 1 (38:05):
Anything.

Speaker 5 (38:06):
Are there any mardy moths?

Speaker 1 (38:08):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (38:10):
That one huge Scottish mostly Scottish. Please don't anyway, So
I do this to protect.

Speaker 1 (38:21):
I'm not going to show you. I'm not going to
show you that's a beautiful moth because the gray ones
because they're a bit it's green.

Speaker 4 (38:30):
Well that makes me a bad Marty then, because I
don't like picking mary anyway, so I put this. Of course,
of course I was about to say something political, but
I want anyway. So I put him down on the
ground and then I go back to hacking this thin

(38:50):
a long times. A little blackbird, and he's there and
he's looking around for the worms because I'm turning up
the soil, swoops and eats the bugger.

Speaker 5 (38:56):
I was like, he ate the winner that you put.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
Do I need to bring around my gun today? No,
because I just got a I've got some new slug
gun pellettes, well maybe three seated the lawn. And I
tell you what I am, I'm dropping some thrush. Dude,
don't worry.

Speaker 5 (39:12):
It's a thrush three free summer for you and I both.

Speaker 4 (39:15):
Okay, different thrushes. So I was like screaming at this bird.

Speaker 1 (39:19):
Like no, no, no, I've gone to all this effort.

Speaker 5 (39:21):
He flies off, and I was like, come tony, your birds.

Speaker 4 (39:24):
I know that's the colonizer's bird coming in anyway, So
I keep hagging at this thing.

Speaker 1 (39:28):
I find more and more of these guys.

Speaker 4 (39:29):
And each time I'm putting them down, and then I'm
sort of like laying it. I've got my eyes on them.
I was like, right, where are you crawling to? You're
crawling here, You're going there. This one bird, it was
the same bird every time. I recognize them because I
looked into his soul and it was the same one.

Speaker 1 (39:42):
He feasts them on the loft feast. You just set
up a smallest board of with them.

Speaker 5 (39:46):
Well are I supposed to do with them?

Speaker 1 (39:48):
Take them? Put them in a thing and shoe box,
and then later on, when it's dark, put them out
on a different tree. I felt like being in a
busy pedestrian area and just putting down a block of
Whittaker's chocolate.

Speaker 5 (39:59):
In the middle of this foot path. It's like throwing
lollies in a Santa parade.

Speaker 1 (40:04):
Yes, exactly exactly.

Speaker 4 (40:06):
I helped in this massacre of the treasured water and
I and I should have just left it because the
reason I was doing it, because I was really cutting
down their home.

Speaker 1 (40:15):
You were so you you colonized enough, said mine, putting
them out to the slaughter. Yeah, I know, so, my apologies.
I really did my best. Are we down? Five? Oh?
So mum, dad, older brother, middle granddaughter, and the grandad

(40:39):
that was living in the house. His grandma died and
grand dad couldn't look after himself anymore, but he flat
refused to go to a wit a rhyme, And so
there's probably just like one younger witer just still living
there without a whole family.

Speaker 4 (40:49):
Granddad, mom and dad and the two brothers are gone,
and the little girl and the trees, and we'll be like,
what happened?

Speaker 1 (40:57):
Where did they all go? They'll be home soon gone.
I'm literally upset.

Speaker 4 (41:03):
Okay, well today, if I see anymore, I'll get a
shoe box and I'll do it. Someone just message in

I think this is my seventh or eighth.

Speaker 8 (42:18):
I've been I've been bloody, I've been all up in
the many times I've been first and last in the

joy of going first, which is you can have a beer.

Speaker 6 (42:30):
Yeah it's seven.

Speaker 1 (42:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (42:32):
If you don't know this behind the scenes, it's really
like when you're in the late in the second half
because it is a long show, it's really really fun.
But if when you're performing you do have to hang
around the green room from like ten am in the
morning just waiting and not drinking.

Speaker 8 (42:45):
Yeah, because there's like so many people get their makeup
done and check their out for it's like a long day.
And yeah, I think last this year I was on
at ten twenty five or something.

Wow, it's a great show though, yeah before every comedian.

Speaker 4 (42:58):
Yeah, totally, it's some former. It sets four minute sets.

Masculine, and little mermaid his chest justo.

Speaker 4 (44:01):
Yeah, no, not really, it's not not quite for me. No,
I won't run over at all, in fact, and if
I do, they'll just cut me and tell me to
come off. Do you know One of the things I'm
most nervous about with this is not if I'm going
to be funny at all, is named same people's names
in the moment, even like your name that I've known
for years and years and years.

Speaker 5 (44:17):
Something about the pressure of that moment makes me think
that I'll.

Text coming in.

Speaker 2 (46:18):
Play Ms Fleshborne and Haley play Zms Fletchborne and Hailey.

Speaker 4 (46:25):
We want to talk about the things that you have
dropped in the supermarket.

Speaker 5 (46:31):
Never done it?

Speaker 1 (46:32):
I have the time. The time I.

Speaker 4 (46:34):
Did this was I was in Edinburgh and it was raining,
and I was in Jendles like in Scotland, and I
went into the whatever the supermarket was, and I was
going to be spreading it out over the course of
the week.

Speaker 5 (46:53):
But I did grab two bottles of red wine to
drink and moderation.

Speaker 4 (46:57):
And I grabbed two bottles like that, and I was
absolutely fine. And I went into the lineup like this,
and as I stepped forward to put them on the
convey about like that, I slipped in my jendles because
they were wet from the rain, and they just both
went smash.

Speaker 1 (47:13):
And I absolutely lea like it was overseas like you
wouldn't have been at the supermarket where you.

Speaker 5 (47:18):
Know, you go to all the time and people recognize you.

Speaker 1 (47:20):
I know.

Speaker 5 (47:21):
But the worst part was I did one of those
awkward sort of.

Speaker 1 (47:26):
Like through the wine.

Speaker 4 (47:28):
Anyway, the reason we want to talk about this was
because there was a check that she had on TikTok.
She went into the supermarket and she was acting silly, right,
and you know, it's so embarrassing when you're acting silly
and you do something they're actually kind of backfires. And
she pulls out this bag of she's like dancing and
squatting stuff.

Speaker 1 (47:44):
Like a one kg bag of grated grated.

Speaker 4 (47:46):
Cheese, and she pulls it out to kind of like
do a move, and the ass end of the bag
comes out and it just like.

Speaker 1 (47:53):
Cheese everywhere everywhere. Cheesy glitter.

Speaker 5 (47:55):
It's cheesy glitter. Cheesy glitter. It's cheesy glitter. Was that
so because you know, have you ever.

Speaker 1 (48:01):
Had something from the supermarket? And well, I haven't finished
a supermarket, so I'm not going to finish now, I'm
not going to finish, all right, Mama Christmas. I'm sorry.
Did you want to help in the kitchen or not?
Get out of here? Leave me alone? If you want
your prisons, no, I don't want them. Your lip mum finished. No,

(48:21):
I understand mums talk too much, as I think I
forgot about prison, says mum, making us sound a victim. Fine,
what would I know? My opinion opinions and doesn't stand
for anything anymore. So you can't say you gotta be
careful what you say around porn. That's what I get.

Speaker 4 (48:37):
Oh yeah, apparently I can't say that about women anymore.

Speaker 1 (48:40):
So what she said around horn, don't say anything about that,
anything about that hicky around horn. No. I was just
wondering because this looked like it had been cut or
already opened.

Speaker 5 (48:50):
This bag of cheese. Yeah, the icind of that doesn't
fall apart.

Speaker 1 (48:53):
You know, sometimes if the people at the super market
are opening a box of the craft knife or a
sharp knife, sometimes you get a little tear and something
and it's had a coff for that.

Speaker 4 (49:01):
And also because she's been selling kind of whips the
bag out, it was probably all it needed to explode.
But then then there's the thing of like do you
pay for it? Because when I dropped those bottles of
wine in Edinburgh, this woman coming to me is like
door towardy, a little vulcated, and she just like mopped
it up and then told me to go get two
more bottles.

Speaker 1 (49:17):
And I left. And because you hadn't paid for it,
and I hadn't paid for this, if you'd paid for
it and then dropped them on the way out, you
would have had to reach it. Yeah, totally. But because
I was in the thing, I'd love to know as
well if anyone dropped something in the supermaker. But then
they've made you pay for it too. Yeah, year totally
totally depend on the sort of person. Yeah yeah, because
you right, they've got it. They just write stuff surely. Yeah, well,

(49:41):
this is what we want to know. This morning, when
we were flat shopping once and someone bag grabbed a
bag of frozen mixed vegetables and when the trolley was
like basketball show to the trolley from a mile away,
it did go on the trolley, but when it hit
the trolley exploded, and now we've got to health and

(50:03):
safety issue and we just keep going a little mini
marbles on the floor.

Speaker 5 (50:07):
In the aisle.

Speaker 4 (50:08):
Yeah, carot, carrot corn, no.

Speaker 1 (50:18):
Corn.

Speaker 4 (50:18):
I was just trying to it's a medley, right, Yeah,
I was just trying to play a word game. You
don't always have, okay, So every joke I say is
to land okay, which I won't even try anymore. No, everyone, sorry,
if I'm a professional comedian and you can't even make
a silly little joke in front of the family thing anymore.

Speaker 1 (50:37):
My brother, where were you to give us a call?
I aint hundred DALs at him? You can text through
nine six nine sick? What did you drop in the supermarket?
And how much of a mess did it make?

Speaker 7 (50:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (50:46):
And did you have to pay for it? Did you
run away? Did you just leave it?

Speaker 1 (50:48):
And say? I guess I could never go back to
that supermarket again? Oh God, give us a call. I
hundred dans and nine six nine sick?

Speaker 5 (50:55):
What did you drop in the supermarket?

Speaker 4 (50:57):
There's a woman who absolutely have to bag a cheer
around Vaughn's burst a.

Speaker 1 (51:03):
Frozen ba ve medley.

Speaker 4 (51:05):
He dropped two bottles of wine and apparently a lot
of you have dropped from the supermarket as well.

Speaker 5 (51:09):
Bes What did you draw at the supermarket?

Speaker 9 (51:14):
Hate? I was bought a layered dip.

Speaker 1 (51:21):
Layer cheese, but a pisto, yes.

Speaker 9 (51:25):
So good, so excited thought that I was in the
South checkout walking out. I had a couple other items
with me, so I was carrying quite a bit in
my arms.

Speaker 3 (51:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (51:33):
Anyway, it must have slipped from my hand. The dip
fell on the floor, split went all over the floor
and up the leg of the lady.

Speaker 5 (51:44):
And you'd already paid for it.

Speaker 9 (51:46):
I'd already paid for it, and I was so humiliated
I didn't even get another one. I was just like sorry.
I just grabbed it and walked out and ate the
last little remnants of it in my in my pot.

Speaker 1 (52:00):
Also, you just use your finger to get it out
of the container.

Speaker 9 (52:05):
Yeah, yeah, it was. It was.

Speaker 5 (52:08):
She's got a finger the triple layer dip.

Speaker 4 (52:10):
Also, those things are so creamy and oily, like if
that's splintered it up someone's leg, you'd be like, that's
not coming out.

Speaker 9 (52:16):
Yeah, No, I definitely don't get.

Speaker 1 (52:19):
No beer plank you, Sophie, What did you drop at
the soupermarket.

Speaker 9 (52:25):
H remember I went to some marcha one day and
she asked me to get a bottle of like a
two liter bottle of milk.

Speaker 1 (52:29):
Ye, And I went and I grabbed it and I
dropped it and I went everywhere. I hate and it's
so like that just explodes mel. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (52:39):
And the same day she went to go get some
buttered chicken and she dropped it and went everywhere like
a jar.

Speaker 5 (52:45):
Oh that would stain.

Speaker 4 (52:46):
Oh my god, it would smell so good though, like
buttered chicken sauce. If every super market smelly butter chicken sauce,
I'd be so happy.

Speaker 7 (52:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (52:57):
Did the staff come and clean it up? Or did
you have to sort of all with the milk?

Speaker 3 (53:02):
They cleaned it up.

Speaker 5 (53:04):
And did you have you already paid for it?

Speaker 1 (53:07):
No? We had them, and so did they charge you
for it? No? They actually didn't. Okay, that's good to realize.
It's a legit accident. New people.

Speaker 5 (53:16):
Someone trying to get TikTok subscribers.

Speaker 4 (53:19):
A few people have messaged it and then oh you
think you Sophie.

Speaker 1 (53:22):

it is. Well, I'll see that.

Speaker 5 (53:26):
Euledge eulidge u l l e g e ulage.

Speaker 1 (53:30):
You make up a word.

Speaker 5 (53:34):
Issues making.

Speaker 4 (53:35):
They have agreements to pay for these sorts of things
called uledge. Suppliers discounts over exodus breakages like that.

Speaker 5 (53:43):
How are you meant to say it?

Speaker 1 (53:44):
Mom? You're saying it wrong. Suppliers pay ulage to cover
Breakage's so embarrassing. Stop talking you SAE takes coming in
nine six nine secs eight hundred dolls it in What
have you dropped at the supermarket? Does bring up a
good point. The worst part about dropping and smashing something
of the supermarket is awkwardly standing around and apologizing while

(54:05):
the staff men but because you can't walk away until
it's cleaned up, but you're not actually helping them clean
it up, but they don't want you to help, like
your health and safety things. But then you're standing they're
on their hands and knees where you're.

Speaker 3 (54:18):
Clean up this.

Speaker 1 (54:18):
As soon as the sign comes out wet floor, I'm like,
can I leave? I do apologize because you can go now?

Speaker 4 (54:24):
Okay, it's allerge guys, By the way, what's how you
pronounce it? It's like the discount that supplieres give to sellers
to allow for paying for this break for breakages, Courtney,
what did you drop at the supermarket?

Speaker 7 (54:38):
Well, bastly, long time, let's star listen the first time.

Speaker 1 (54:42):
We'll get the belt. Welcome, Welcome to the show, Courtney,
thank you very much. So my story is that my
husband and I were at the supermarket.

Speaker 7 (54:51):
I'm buying some cash letter bags for the handle, so
walking around for a while, buying lots of things, and
so only this person came up to us and said this,
excuse me, I think there might be a hole in
your bag, and oh my gosh, through the trail of

(55:12):
kissie letter all through the aisles. And we had no idea,
but it just been.

Speaker 1 (55:17):
They said, saying they had the same thing with Flower.
And someone literally saw them in the frozen sections the
last stop and said, you know, you've been dropping flower
for like seven aisles. It would literally be this perfect
trail of flower.

Speaker 5 (55:31):
That's wait, did.

Speaker 1 (55:32):
You go back and pick up all the kitty litter?

Speaker 7 (55:35):
So when the person told us, it was a bit
of a commotion and staff members were in hysterics and
they just said, look, well thought it you goo They
could say that were Spotify, So we quickly went to
the check out paper and left bag.

Speaker 1 (55:49):

the way to f if my head honking knockers. I
don't know if i'd be able to reach barrier. But

(01:02:12):
you know he's going to sunscreen me. So the waptions eron, okay,
because at home I'll be like shadows, not the like
hey kids, sunscrew me. And I don't know because I
remember screening my parents as well. If you don't put
in the mind that it's I've never I've never seen
because I'm always there about sunscreens. I showed them pictures

(01:02:32):
of skin cancers the other day. Oh yeah, whenever you're like,
if you're going on outside. You put a hat on them,
we're sunscreen. They're always like, well, do't lose a nose
at these skin cancers they cut out of them.

Speaker 4 (01:02:44):
We have to be very vigilant and even the tiny
you know, it hasn't been that hot.

Speaker 1 (01:02:48):
In Auckland, saw.

Speaker 4 (01:02:49):
Aaron's got a strip along his back where he's been
bending over all day and.

Speaker 5 (01:02:54):
Shorts and spats the worst part to get some.

Speaker 1 (01:02:57):
He was in the showers.

Speaker 4 (01:02:58):
I was like, plus this strip and I realized what
it was. And he's got the nick T shirt knit.

Speaker 1 (01:03:03):
Yeah, Hailely just ooed you. So I think I don't
just sunblocking your pearance. It's always weird.

Speaker 5 (01:03:10):
Do you want to feel my hands on your back now?
Because Aaron's gonna have rough hands.

Speaker 1 (01:03:14):
As a practice, or doesn't even my back, It can
be my upper arm if you cat, But it's weird
kind of touching you in a semi I've sunscreened. Do
you remember it super the super Gay beach club in
Greece when we sunscreen each other.

Speaker 5 (01:03:28):
Okay, I find there's really no more to that story.

Speaker 1 (01:03:31):
This is how I do it right, Okay, squirting on
my heads?

Speaker 5 (01:03:34):
Yeah, that's all you need it.

Speaker 1 (01:03:36):
It's like when you sunscreen, you free and you don't
linger your hands to as moving always always moving, moving,
and then a little pad on the back sunscreen any
of my buddies, They've only got to ask because yeah,
touching like it's nice, you know, nice to touch. I like,
So I don't want to see them burn. I don't
want to see them burn. I don't want to see
my friends gets can. I think I'll do it.

Speaker 4 (01:03:57):
I think Aaron will make it weirder. He's got more
callous hands. It is quite theatrical and by the time
we get into theater can make a whole play out
of it.

Speaker 1 (01:04:05):
It will do a whole bit. And we just don't
have time. We need you on the field develop a character.

Speaker 5 (01:04:09):
Okay, well I think Hailey did it.

Speaker 1 (01:04:12):
No sensuality just yeah, but of that, okay, and you
got because if I'm okay, now, when you're suns screaming me,
do you want me to take the single off they
can get the whole back or do you want me
to because behind behind there the traps.

Speaker 5 (01:04:25):
Okay, and I'll get down a little bit under.

Speaker 1 (01:04:26):
The trouble is, though, when friends put it on nonsensually
and they're going very fast. It doesn't rub and as fast.
But that's okay. I like a thick. I don't mind.

Speaker 4 (01:04:35):
I'll meet the fine line between sensuality and good application, right,
I promise, Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:04:40):
I don't mind. I don't mind. As long as it's
covering every I don't mind. If there's an abundant amount
of sunscreen left on there, it'll soak in over time.

Speaker 5 (01:04:46):
That's fine, And I take it. We've got a big pump.

Speaker 1 (01:04:48):
Yes. So when it's cancer society good, cancer society good.

Speaker 3 (01:04:55):
That's the one plays it Flesh and Haley.

Speaker 4 (01:05:00):
Fact of the day, Day day, day day.

Speaker 1 (01:05:04):
Yeah, do do do do do do do doop do
do doo doo doo High. It's Scrabble week, love it.
Notes of the day worked out yesterday how the points
were attributed to the English version of Scrabble. But today's

(01:05:25):
fact we look at different languages and what are the
most valuable letters in different languages versions of scrabble.

Speaker 4 (01:05:30):
Oh okay, some languages have different letters correct Afrikaans.

Speaker 1 (01:05:38):
This is an alphabetical order. But I'm just going to
do a couple, okay, and then you guys can just
request languages and I'll try to find them in this list, I'll.

Speaker 5 (01:05:45):
Do what my word would be corp.

Speaker 1 (01:05:48):
You got a P.

Speaker 5 (01:05:49):
That's that's that's three, k's five. That's quite a good word.

Speaker 1 (01:05:53):
New k is worth three points? What about?

Speaker 5 (01:05:59):
What about?

Speaker 1 (01:06:00):
There is no C? There is no C in the
Afrikaans language, and there's also there's literally a C in Africa.
It's ok in Afrikaans.

Speaker 4 (01:06:09):
Oh my god, I actually had no idea of my
own language.

Speaker 1 (01:06:14):
It's disappointing. That's crazy. With the.

Speaker 4 (01:06:20):
Years ago my mother, I lost the language and it
was really sad.

Speaker 1 (01:06:25):
I keep the excent strong and the love of Bill
and half of walking cars and Biltong. The ten point
letter in Afrikaans scrabble is j oh j is a
ten pointer right, Ah, that's not Spanish Spanish, Spanish, Spanish Spanish.

(01:06:46):
The ten point letter is z boo. You picked a
dud because that's a ten point letter for us as well.

Speaker 4 (01:06:51):
Yeah, but the someone's message and may we please have
Vietnamese scrabble?

Speaker 1 (01:06:56):
Okay, my problem is Vietnamese. It's the same. A couple
of other languages that have come across Vietnamese have letters
that we don't recognize. But like so this is actually
really good because Vietnamese have one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen,

(01:07:18):
seventeen different types of the letter all the bits above it,
and there's one of each, seventeen of them, seventeen of them,
and lots of o's as well, a ton of o's
of these mostly vowels. What's their biggest? Q and V
are the ten point letters?

Speaker 4 (01:07:38):
Do you know someone brought a good point with the
likes of Welsh, Irish, Gaelic or the likes, you'd probably
have your consonants being worth less and the vowels more,
you know, like because okay how we use them?

Speaker 1 (01:07:53):
So and Welsh scrabble sets the ten point letters are
letter combinations. Yeah, right. One timele has n G on it. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:08:02):
Yeah, one tile has R r h on it. Yeah,
different sounds rather than letters D D.

Speaker 1 (01:08:11):
In Welsh there's a title with d D on it
that's only worth one point because they always have a
double d a Is that right? The Welsh?

Speaker 4 (01:08:19):
Some bs, some are cs, some grow to double d's
even beyond that. But yeah, they're more like combinations of sound.
Is there a Maldi scrabble may I ask?

Speaker 1 (01:08:30):
Yes?

Speaker 5 (01:08:30):
There is malory scrabble sets ah, the A, I, the
O and the you are each.

Speaker 1 (01:08:36):
Worth one point. Yeah, of course we love our vows.
Either are the T, the K, the N and the
W two points? That is ten twenty points use it.

Speaker 5 (01:08:47):
There's no s H, three points for H, M and P.

Speaker 1 (01:08:51):
The most five points is the highest you can get
for one particular letter tile in Maldi scrabble, I.

Speaker 4 (01:08:57):
Suppose because in the Malori language is less letters and
more repeat the more it's w H.

Speaker 1 (01:09:04):
Yeah, w H is the five point Yeah? Any other?
What about Thai? But again not on.

Speaker 5 (01:09:14):
The Okay, what about French? French?

Speaker 1 (01:09:18):
Oh yeah, we can do, Okay, French have quite a
few ten point tiles.

Speaker 5 (01:09:23):
Okay, go.

Speaker 1 (01:09:25):
W X y Z.

Speaker 5 (01:09:28):
Why recognized?

Speaker 1 (01:09:30):
Because some French words to start with y your eyes
French for yogurt, isn't it? No?

Speaker 5 (01:09:39):
What's it fringe for?

Speaker 1 (01:09:40):
I can't remember, but it's er plat Okay, because doesn't
everything in French have a gender assigned to it? Yeah,
isn't that the weird? So yeah, there's our K, W
X y Z leaders. They're all different. Anybody else, no thing?
That's enough? Ok go Japan, Surely I won't be so

(01:10:01):
it's a Japanese symbol, but the English equivalent, and this
is a twelve point time twelve point tyler is in you.
Oh yeah, okay, it's in you. But again that's the
English equivalent of the Japanese language. That's still that tile
in the English version. Miss with people's minds and they
draw it and you'll see their face. You'll be like,

(01:10:21):
they've got it in you. Yeah, you see them trying
to figure it out. There's a klingon scrabble cling on
the language from Star Trek, a language that is anywhere
in the ten point throat ship. No one's listening. Oh

(01:10:42):
my god, sorry, let's.

Speaker 5 (01:10:43):
Get some water.

Speaker 1 (01:10:44):
Other fake languages that have scrabble will be Game of Thrones,
Ky Navy, which is the language off Avatar.

Speaker 2 (01:10:52):
Right news.

Speaker 5 (01:10:55):
So today is the Ray. Today's fact of the day is.

Speaker 1 (01:11:00):
Different languages have different points associated to the letters and scrabble.
Fat of the day, Day day day, day, Do do
doop doudo doudoo doo. Play MS Fletch Vaughn and Haley.

Speaker 5 (01:11:25):

Speaker 1 (01:11:26):
And Haley Bless this little boy's heart. This is the
sweetest little story. So Auckland Transport shared this on their
Facebook page.

Speaker 4 (01:11:36):
Okay, it came to their attention that a three year
old kid named Slavco has had his third birthday party and.

Speaker 5 (01:11:45):
The theme of it was eighty Transport.

Speaker 1 (01:11:48):
Okay, he loves trains, Auckland buses, Auckland Transport, so he's
wearing literally or not just no.

Speaker 4 (01:11:58):
So the birthday cake is a is an eighty hop card,
so your bus passed.

Speaker 1 (01:12:02):
Like the one that you tap on the trains to get.

Speaker 4 (01:12:04):
On, yeah, Snapper or whatever other cities. He's got an
AT hat that sees b bright be seen. He's got
a little bus, he's got an AT train, He's got
an Auckland Transport lanyard. He has all of his gifts
are Auckland Transport themed. He's got an Auckland Transport T shirt.

(01:12:25):
He looks like the happiest boy because he just loves
Auckland Transport and that's his like obsession, this jam. He
just loves going on the buses, the trains and everything.
He's got all the merch and he just looks like that.
Oh my god, honestly, what a darling cart.

Speaker 5 (01:12:41):
It's pretty cute.

Speaker 1 (01:12:42):
Cute.

Speaker 4 (01:12:43):
Apparently he's obsessed with it and Auckland Transport were like,
this is amazing, and so they went and sent him
a bunch of goodies, which is really sweet. I want
to know what was your obsession as a kid that
was a little bit out of the blue. You know,
everyone was into horses and ballet and barbies, turtles.

Speaker 1 (01:12:58):
I'm not talking whatever TV show was hot at the time. Yeah,
it was slightly different.

Speaker 5 (01:13:03):
But a slightly different obsession.

Speaker 4 (01:13:06):
Best friend's son went through two phases. One was speed bumps,
not only going for drives and going over speed bumps,
but watching videos of cars driving over speed bumps, just
trucks going over speed bumps, light vehicles over speed bumps,
bicycles over speed bumps, videos and videos of speed bumps.

Speaker 1 (01:13:21):
Really, but that must have been great for your friend
because that kid would have just been on YouTube looking
at really easy taken for a day out to the
speed bumps. Yeah, and his other one was escalators. For
a while, just went through like escalators if we got
to go up and down, up and down, up and down,
and then and then the oposition grew to watching videos
of people on escalators. I remember, like all the videos

(01:13:42):
of people on escalator would be people falling over on escalators.

Speaker 5 (01:13:45):
He loved that too.

Speaker 1 (01:13:46):
It's just he just became he's going to love driving
to the more when he's old enough, going over speed bump,
sitting in their hardpark and then going and watching the travelator.
Oh it's like Saint Luke's. They've got those little speed
bumps with you know, the ones that really kick you
really and they got a couple of escalators.

Speaker 5 (01:14:02):
So I was gonna love us love it there.

Speaker 4 (01:14:04):
But I want to know if you had an odd
obsession as a kid, and how far did you take it?
Like this kid whose entire third birthday party was eighty
themed Auckland transport eighties transport.

Speaker 1 (01:14:15):
When you first said an eighties eight what was transport
like in the eighties? Eighty cake is amazing.

Speaker 4 (01:14:21):
Like imagine going to the cake shop and being like,
I need you to make this look like a bus
hop card.

Speaker 5 (01:14:26):
That's so good, it's so good. Did you have any
have any obsessions?

Speaker 1 (01:14:30):
My parents will be like, that's bloody, stupid, old You're
getting a cake in the in the Australian Woman's Weekly.
I'm not making that cake. I need to step my step.
Instructions on how to stick chips into an nice thing
to make it look like a chip duck. That's what

luncheon from the butcher arms Sally. Now the hitting is
the messages coming wrong? Okay, well coming in? Oh wait,
Drew darz as the number, give us a call. You

Speaker 5 (01:15:17):
What was the odd thing you're obsessed with? As a
kid does?

Speaker 4 (01:15:20):
A kid had an eighty Auckland transport themed birthday party.
A lot of odd things coming in. A lot of
them are like tools or like you know, like like gadgets,
lawn mowers and vacuum cleaners. A heap of people have
like vacuum cleaner obsessed children, Rubbish trucks.

Speaker 1 (01:15:38):
And bins is one the rubbish got a rubbish truck
cake and and a bright yellow full size WHEELI bin
for Christmas.

Speaker 5 (01:15:44):
That is now used for soft tours.

Speaker 1 (01:15:46):
Because kids love. I mean even as an adult, I
love when the arm gets the wheely bin and then
puts it in cool Hell yeah, I like when the
arms shakes. Yeah, because I can tell you something left
in it.

Speaker 5 (01:15:56):
It's like bing juice.

Yeah, yeah, we don't want too much bone juice. Ah.
When my son was three, was obsessed with New World,
had a New World birthday cake, send a photo. They
sent him a big New World pack full of New
World themed items and a food and food and a
card signed by everyone in their office. He was so happy.

Speaker 5 (01:16:12):
Oh it's cute.

Speaker 1 (01:16:15):
I was obsessed with carrots as a kid. Probably ate
seven carrots a day. Oh yeah, I'd go to the
Pizza Hut buffet and just get plates of grated carrot.
Oh my god, there's no way if we're spending that money,
you're just eating carrot. We've got carrots at home. What
a wild thing to say to a kid. Eat more pizza.
We've got carrots at home. Yeah, what a wild thing.

(01:16:35):
My four year old loves fans. Best treat ever is
a new fan like an oscillating fan.

Speaker 4 (01:16:41):
Yeah, it doesn't even stick us hitting them and make
a voice. He just likes to watch them and likes
the concept of fans.

Speaker 1 (01:16:48):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (01:16:48):
I also love people messaging about the one video. When
my daughter was young, she was obsessed with watching one video.
It was take a Chance on Me by Ebba, just
on Loop, take a Chance to a check They've got
the boots and starting a Chance to Chance. Loved it,
great song. I'm obsessed. I was obsessed with wood as
a kid.

Speaker 1 (01:17:06):
Four to two. Specifically, that was my favorite. Alm was
building a house. I collected all the offcuts and keep
them four two. Oh yeah, somebody else with a Auckland
transport obsessed child, but he's now thirty years old in
a town planner.

Speaker 5 (01:17:21):
Oh okay, there you go.

Speaker 1 (01:17:22):
So it kind of translated, yeah, predicated bit of some
city too. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:17:26):
I used to collect cicada shells, says someone. I did
that a little bit, but you get rid of them eventually,
they're so they give me the creepy Crawley's.

Speaker 1 (01:17:34):
Collection of those. Yeah. Ah, some other things. As I
was obsessed with the sea, anything about the sea. I
used to imagine what would be like to live under
the sea. Yeah, and then one Christmas I got one
of those mermaid tails almost drown in the pool. See
obsession over because that was the thing about may those
mermaid tails. They were cool and if you knew what

(01:17:55):
you were doing, you could swim real fast. But if
you didn't, you couldn't move your leg panic. Yeah, anybody would.
My son is obsessive portal loose. Oh yeah, Okay, loves
the movie Kenny, which is a film about portal Loose.
Someone said I loved erasers. I had a whole erase
of collection. No one was allowed to use them, had
to be in pristine condition.

My daughter's obsessed with can beat trout.

Speaker 4 (01:18:18):

would never be far from a can, had spear ones
in the car for emergencies, even in a Santa Stocking.

Speaker 1 (01:18:25):
As President stainy, very stainy, keep worth it, but stainy
better than Lolly's and someone's decision. As someone with autism,
I can see that there is going to be a
lot of future diagnosis of autism. Indeed, hey, guys, apparently
being the company's most successful podcast isn't enough. They want

(01:18:45):
asked to tell people to tell more of their friends.
So people are clearly liking it. But we have to
tell them to tell others to I would concentrate more
on the shitter podcast at the Company Loss. Yeah yeah,
maybe maybe won't say that. Maybe we should eve encourage
people to listen to other podcasts of the company makes.
