Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Matt and Jerry Show Get indoor projects sorted with
Bunning's trade.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Breakfast time weekday on sixty night.

Speaker 3 (00:14):
Well, it's Matt and Jerum morning. Welcome on to The
Madden Jerry Show, Wednesday, the twelfth of June twenty twenty four.
My name's Jeremy Wells. Mad Heath is not here again
because he's sick, but Mas she's here.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
Yeah, I'm here, And it would be very remissing me,
in the absence of Matt Heath, to not mention that
it is hump day today. Jerry. It is Wednesday. It's
a five day week, so we officially have another hunt
day to tick off the list. Is that number? Eighteen
out of how many? Forty three?

Speaker 3 (00:45):
Eighteen out of forty three?

Speaker 2 (00:46):
Meshy, I mean this is exciting stuff, Jerry.

Speaker 3 (00:49):
That certainly is.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
We're nearly halfway through the year, aren't we here?

Speaker 2 (00:53):
We are, Hey, huge show today. I believe you've found
an article about chocolate with shrooms in it. You've been
buzzing about this all morning. You want to find out
how you can get your mits on these I'm trying to.

Speaker 3 (01:02):
Work out how much shroom is actually in these rooms,
you know, that I think they've had to recall them
because they're making people sick, and not in a good
way by the looks of it. Also this morning, do
elephants call each other by name? We know that parrots do,
we know that dolphins do, But do elephants have names
for each other?

Speaker 2 (01:23):
God, you gotta hang around for this kind of stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:26):
Also, black Cap Daryl Mitchell joins us on the show.

Speaker 4 (01:30):
The Matt and Jerry Show.

Speaker 3 (01:33):
So bad news if you enjoy your microdosing in the
form of chocolate. The US Food and Drug Administration is
warning consumers and retailers not to eat, sell, or serve
any of diamond Shrooms brands microdosing chocolate bars after people
across four states were left hospitalized. Eight people reported falling

(01:54):
ill after eating diamond shrooms chocolate. Six of those have
been hospitalized. No deaths have been linked to the yet,
but people who had them reported experiencing symptoms that include seizures,
central nervous system depression, so loss of consciousness, confusion, sleepiness, agitation,

(02:14):
abnormal heart rates, hyper and hypotension, nausea, and vomiting.

Speaker 2 (02:19):
Okay, that just sounds horrific. So is there psilocybin mushas
in this Jockey or the Buzzy.

Speaker 3 (02:24):
No, that's the thing. According to the company's website, which
I've just been looking on now, they are made with
a blend of new tropic and functional mushrooms, so they
don't contain psilicyber.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
Is the idea though, that you eat it to get
high of some kind. Do we know anything about this root?

Speaker 5 (02:41):
Yeah, it is supposedly to get a high. And I'm
not sure if you said, but they have macro dosing
and microdosing versions of that, and yeah, there's some people
that have gone on TikTok and they've just recorded themselves
macro dosing it and yeah they are tripping.

Speaker 3 (03:00):
Right, Okay, Okay, So apparently the drugs that they use
brain supplements, smart rugs, cognitive enhancers smart the semisynthetic or
synthetic compounds which purportedly improve cognitive function are So it's
that kind of synthetic stuff. Because do you remember party pills?

Speaker 5 (03:20):
I mean it's hard to not remember them and remember
the hangover that you'd have from them the next day.

Speaker 3 (03:25):
Oh man, the hangover.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
As in a party pil Because what a party pill
is now to me is essentially a nickname for what
is known on the streets as a PingER.

Speaker 5 (03:34):
Oh no, no, no, no.

Speaker 3 (03:35):
No no, Now, the PingER was gendle on the system.
Compared to the party pearl. BZP I think was the
active ingredient in the party pill. Yeah it was.

Speaker 5 (03:44):
It was sort of early two thousands, and you'd see
them in liquor stores.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
You buy these things over the counter.

Speaker 5 (03:49):
Oh yeah, one hundred percent. There was one particular one
called Grin. And I tell you what, the next day
you weren't grinning.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
What did these things do? Do they just get your up?
Were they kind of some kind of reddlin?

Speaker 3 (04:00):
They just made your heart beat faster? Okay, And they
kept you awake because BZP is the active ingredient and
as a horrible and it just meant that you could
drink more, and so people would just knock back the drinks.
I know that this hangover that you speak of ruder,
Oh man, that springs to my eye. Had the worst

(04:22):
hangover I've ever had on those party pills. Oh my god,
the world, my god.

Speaker 5 (04:26):
The worst thing about the party pill hangover back in
the early two thousands, though, was when you would have them,
thinking I'm going to have these so I don't drink
tonight so I can drive my mates around and so
you might have like a couple of beers and then
you pop a party pill.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
But there was also this other.

Speaker 5 (04:42):
Thing that was going on in the early two thousands,
mash that you won't know about. And it was like
Red Bull concentrate and you'd get a little bottle of
it and it was the equivalent of about six Red
Bulls and you just drink it like it was medicine
boys from Asian supermarkets.

Speaker 2 (04:58):
So you're just waking up the next day hanging at
the back a couple of Redbill concentrates and a couple
of party pills. Was the idea that you'd pop these
and would you just keep with the stamina, just stay
with you. You could go all night on these things.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
Well that was kind of the idea, and you could.
It was very hard to sleep, But I think the
worst thing the next day was that you had to hangover,
generally from the alcohol that you were drinking. Just trying
to settle the part of peel down a bit, so
I just need to settler here. But the problem was
your heart was still racing and you're like, what was
wrong with me, I can't. It was the most anxious feeling.

(05:29):
It was horrific. And there was a guy called star
Boy do you remember. I think his name was Matt
Matt about it and he was the guy that was
like the party pill king. He made a huge amount
of money out of it, so he was.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
Just pumping these out to the general public the clubbing
scene in the early two thousand, late nineties here and
the New Zealand.

Speaker 3 (05:44):
And then they would change. The government would step in
and say, oh, you can't have that one because that
one's clearly terrible for you, and then he'd just change
it by one molecule and they'd go, oh, okay, well
that's now legal.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
Go yeah, well three three three. If you've got any
of these things sitting around at home, oh no, let
me know, because i'd i'd love to know what these
feel like. Is that No, you guys are both looking
at me. It's a bad idea.

Speaker 3 (06:05):
Just terrifying, Okay, terrifying. The Matt and Jerry show, Gee,
that chat about party peills has really sparked off a
lot of texts on the text machine. People clearly have
some terrible memories of party pells. BZP we're talking about
the fact that I've never experienced these things before.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
And I threw out the comment saying, if anyone's got
some of these lying round I I'd love to get
my mites on those. I wasn't quite sure what we
were dealing with there. In hindsight, maybe i'd take that
comment back, but anyway.

Speaker 3 (06:35):
No, Well, this comment here on the text machine on
three four to three asking for a band, substance or
drug on radio as soliciting it's illegal, I'm calling the police.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
Okay, Well, I mean it's early in the show to
be canceled. Quarter past six. We've only been gone for
fifteen minutes. Text. If you could just hold that call
off for another kind of two and a half hours,
I'd appreciate that so we can just get through the
show and we can deal with that. Please complain afterwards.

Speaker 3 (07:00):
What is fileculitis? Because this text to here says those
big grin pills have me gave me a full body
case of fileculitis. I don't know what that fileculitis is.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
No, A lot of people concerned about what it might
do to the downstairs operations.

Speaker 3 (07:13):
Oh what it did to the downstairs operation I mean
salty care show is an understatement, right, Okay, this text
to here Paddy Pills really turned my downstairs operation inside out. Yeah,
there's nothing good. There was nothing good that he reckoned,
although one person said they were quite good if you
wanted to stay awake for forty eight hours. Yeah, but
who wants to stay awake for forty eight hours?

Speaker 2 (07:34):
No one should be staying awake for forty eight hours?

Speaker 3 (07:36):
Ye?

Speaker 6 (07:37):
No?

Speaker 2 (07:37):
Okay, right, sorry about talk.

Speaker 3 (07:39):
About them again, because that's taking me back to a
dark time. Matt and Jerry Show. Ready, I had a kid.

Speaker 2 (07:47):
And listen to that.

Speaker 6 (07:50):
J here's some news high level chart.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
On weekdays, I just want to.

Speaker 3 (08:02):
Hit Jevy it's nasty and Jeremy Well sixty three on
the Mattain Jerry Show. Time for the latest news headlines.
Joe Biden's son Hunter could face up to twenty five
years behind bars after becoming the first child of a
US president to be convicted of a crime. He's been
found guilty on three charges after lying about his drug
use when illegally buying a gun. Chris Lucksen and some

(08:25):
of his ministers will be at Field Days for day
one at Hamilton's Mystery Creek. The Prime Minister is expected
to be given a warmer welcome than his predecessors, and
Shawnee Jay is back for the Warriors for Saturday's NRL
clash with the Melbourne Storm. The injury ward for the
Wars has reduced heavily over the last couple of weeks.

(08:47):
Roger two of us as Scheck has been named in
the extended squad, but has not set to return until
next week's game on the Gold Coast against the Titans.

Speaker 2 (08:55):
Okay, So if I take you back to about six
or seven weeks ago, Jerry, we have been desperate for
Shawnee J To come back. Yes, Now you would think
we're in a little bit of an interesting situation where
I'm not suggesting we don't want Shawney J. Of course
you want Shorney J. Shawney Jay. But the boys have
been playing well over the last three weeks and it's
tempting to almost not touch that.

Speaker 3 (09:18):
Yeah, particularly in the halves to Mighty Martin and Shanelle
Harris Tavita.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
So who's he coming back in for? Is he replaced
se Chanel? Okay? Right, Okay, So having a look at
the squad for this week, Yeah, Sean's Dylan Rockerberry and
in pompe At four, Masalomon twenty five to Marty Martin
six ies, so he's still in there. Shawney j seven
of course for Noah Blake eight, Wadegan nine, Jackson four ten,
New Quarter eleven, Mitch Barnett twelve, Torhu Harris your favourite

(09:43):
meeting three Vege at number thirteen.

Speaker 3 (09:44):
I mean that's a good squad right there. Yeah, it's
pretty good. And then they've got cap Well coming off
the bench. You've got Shanelle coming off the bench as well,
Dylan Walker. It's looking pretty good there.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
Yeah, I'm happy of that.

Speaker 3 (09:53):
It's a pretty good so and the tabs thinks it's
looking pretty good too. Dollar ninety versus a dollar ninety
to hour's talking.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
Put the house on it, Jerry your house as well, please,
thanks mate.

Speaker 3 (10:04):
That's a nice house. Ooh, that's a pretty good looking team.
Your halves have been playing really well. Is that that's
a good problem to have, isn't it. I mean I
assume So and Ma and Jerry show normally around it
this time. Twenty minutes to seven is our animal zone,
isn't it, Meshy, Yeah, it.

Speaker 2 (10:24):
Is usually our animal zone. It'll be a wonderful world
of I don't know. What did we have the other
week that I'm still thinking about often the Chinese zoo
that had the dogs painted as pandas just so they
could pass to have a couple of pandas in their zoo.

Speaker 3 (10:36):
Yeah, they painted them up like pandas.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
But so, do we have an animal story today or no,
we do and it's an elephant story. Okay, if do
you want to have me with that? Is it a
wonderful world or is it just a story? I think
it's just a story. Okay, let's discuss.

Speaker 3 (10:47):
Yeah, there's a new study which is out and this
is interesting because for a long time people have worked
out that dolphins call each other by their names. They
have a noise that dolphins make individual noises, and the
way a dolphin addresses another dolphin is to imitate the
noise of the other dolphin. Interesting, so that's how it
knows the name of the dolphin. It's like and it's like,

(11:10):
oh yeah, okay, that means that it's talking to that
dolphin who makes that noise.

Speaker 2 (11:14):
And then what would the other dolphin do?

Speaker 3 (11:16):
We get like that back at it. There's a terrible
dolphin on persination.

Speaker 2 (11:20):
Now it's not your best work, but I'm here for it.

Speaker 3 (11:23):
Yeah. So anyway, they've worked that out. They've also worked
out the parrots can call each other by a name.
They make a particular noise and they can be identified
by name.

Speaker 2 (11:31):
Well, some of them actually talk English parrots. Yeah, yeah,
that's more an imitation thing. I think that's slightly different. Okay,
that's different. So they'll call each other in their parrot language, Yeah,
by name.

Speaker 3 (11:42):
I've got their own language, and then they can also
speak our languages. Sure, but I don't think they know
what they're saying. They're just imitating us.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
So what are elephants doing.

Speaker 3 (11:49):
Well, elephants have their own call and it's not actually,
they're not imitating each other's sounds. They searchers have analyzed
recordings of four hundred and sixty nine calls made by
wild groups of females and calves between nineteen eighty six
and twenty twenty two, So, I mean that's forty years.

Speaker 2 (12:08):
Now, it's a long study.

Speaker 3 (12:10):
And all the elephants could be individually identified by the
shape of the ears, so they knew which elephants were which, Okay, sure,
And they found that the structure of calls very depending
on who the target of the call was. So they
they played back the calls to seventeen elephants to see
whether or not they recognized the calls, and they sponded

(12:31):
to ones that had been directed at them, and they
found that the elephants would respond more strongly to a
call that was originally addressed to them by one of
the other elephants.

Speaker 2 (12:38):
Interesting, yeah, okay, so what's the point in this for
an elephant, because, I mean, they see each other, So
do even elephants get confused sometimes? Before we found out
about this study, did even elephants look at another elephant
and go, I'm not one hundred percent sure if this
is my mate, my missus, or I don't know, just
the stranger.

Speaker 3 (12:56):
I guess they thought before that maybe elephants identified each
other by smell, okay, right, like a lot of animals
identified by smell. Course, But it turns out that they're
actually using sound. I mean it makes sense. They've got
giant ears, they've obviously got good hearing.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
I mean they've been evolved. They've evolved with two things
that are different to most things. Their massive ears and
they're a huge trunk and you would have thought that
one of those things is going to be a key
contributor to the way that they communicate. So it's the ears.

Speaker 3 (13:22):
Yeah, they also mourn they're dead. That's quite an interesting
thing that elephants do, isn't it. So they'll get they'll
be wandering along because that the oldest female is the
one that leads the herd.

Speaker 2 (13:31):
There's some quite tragic stories about how elephants grieve, isn't there.

Speaker 3 (13:34):
Yeah, they get their trunks and they rub them over
the bones of their dead relatives.

Speaker 2 (13:38):
There's also been reports of elephants, I believe in Zoo's
dying of heartbreak. They think because they mourn the loss
of their children or whatever. You kill a baby elephant,
one of their babies or one of their friends, and
they get so upset. The elephants, Yeah, they're big way,
They've got big brains. I mean, they're beautiful things, aren't they.
An elephant? Have you ever ridden?

Speaker 3 (13:57):
I've ridden a couple, Yeah, I have. I've written Cash
and the Elephant, and I would describe it as like
riding on a big a big patch of dirt with
some hair coming out of it.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
They feel weird, don't they? An elephant. They are majestic beast.

Speaker 3 (14:09):
They're a great beasts. And then I remember on Entyland
once and the person was working it with a stick
with a nail on it. That wasn't good.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
No, that doesn't.

Speaker 3 (14:15):
So it turns out elephants talk to each other. Well,
there you go, Jerry, Yeah, there you go. What a
wonderful world.

Speaker 4 (14:20):
We love in the Matt and Jerry shir.

Speaker 2 (14:25):
The wonderful world of.

Speaker 3 (14:28):
A serial world record breaker. Who is at it again.
This guy's called David Rush. He's the he's got the
second most Guinness World Records.

Speaker 2 (14:37):
Meshy, Okay, talk me through some of his world records
of that's okage, Holy smokes is in the list.

Speaker 3 (14:43):
Okay, we can't talk you through the list. I mean, remarkably,
he's got the second most. So there's another guy who's
got one hundred and eighty. This guy's got one hundred
and seventy six.

Speaker 2 (14:54):
This list is so long, Rudy just put it in
front of us, okay.

Speaker 3 (14:58):
Sylvio Saba is the guy who's it's a Guinness World
Record for the most Guinness World Records. But this feels
like a self source from within. There is no Guinness
World Record for the most Guinness World Records.

Speaker 2 (15:07):
Oh there isn't.

Speaker 3 (15:08):
Well I don't think so that.

Speaker 2 (15:09):
Person should be on the cover every year, is what
I think it should be.

Speaker 3 (15:12):
I mean, what are you doing so obviously you've just
dedicated your entire life just sitting Guinness World Records. I
mean you can't.

Speaker 2 (15:18):
That's so humiliating. I mean, as a man who's failed
Againness World Records MP myself back in year eight, I've
told the story many times when Coppleborough School went along
to the amp Showgrounds to attempt the world's largest leap
frog with a whole bunch of other schools.

Speaker 3 (15:32):
So you mean the world's largest leap frog? Like, so
one person leap frog someone four meters or something.

Speaker 2 (15:38):
No no, no, no, no, no no, as an accumulative number
of people leap frogging. So there was about from memory,
it was a whole cricket field and there was lines.
They were wrapped around the field, if that makes sense.
So there were lines of about twenty, yeah, in front
of twenty and in front of twenty, and then one
line went over top of the others and then they
went again, wow, and they went again. They went around

(15:59):
the field. But we were a couple short, so we
didn't get that Guinness World record.

Speaker 3 (16:03):
What did you practice it?

Speaker 2 (16:05):
I remember practicing it?

Speaker 3 (16:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (16:06):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (16:07):
How much time did you guys spend? Like obviously most
schools you're sort of learning how to read and write
all and I clearly that wasn't at me at your school.

Speaker 2 (16:14):
There's got to be someone else out there listening right
now that was also involved in this AMP show Grounds
world record attempt, because there was a couple of thousand
of us from what I understand, So get in touch
three for it. Three if you were also at the
mp show Grounds of this day in about two thousand
and nine, i'd say fail something like that because we
fell short numbers.

Speaker 3 (16:30):
Jerry, Yeah, but surely someone should have said this is
how many people we need to do this.

Speaker 2 (16:34):
What really upset me was at the end of it,
we got told we didn't have enough people, and I
was really frustrated. Why did we even start? I'm not
sure why we got things underway if we didn't have
enough people, Like you're saying, exactly, why don't we go
and get a couple of farmers from out there that
were selling I don't know what. Right now, there were
people everywhere's the amp show grounds it was, it was
going off.

Speaker 3 (16:51):
Surely the person organizing it would say, we need this
is the record attempt, this is how many people we
need to break the record. And then you get you
count them out like you actually count the people, and
then you do it.

Speaker 2 (17:02):
I agree with you on this. Yeah, I'm just as
frustrated as you are about.

Speaker 3 (17:06):
It doing in there in North Canterbury. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (17:08):
I'd love to give it another crack. Maybe it's something
we could do on the mat and jury show is
just get three thousand people together an attempt to break
the world's longest leap frog. But it feels too niche.
Now I've moved on as you can do, I can imagine.
But it's the amateurier down there in North kennebody so
compared to my leapfrog attempt, which people are already calling
humiliating by three for three on the text machine, this
guy's who's got one hundred and seventy six world records

(17:30):
are just as humiliating.

Speaker 3 (17:31):
Oh they're shocking. Fastest time to wrap a person and
cling wrap one minute two seconds.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
I mean, I feel like I could beat that.

Speaker 3 (17:40):
Most thumbtacks inserted into a corkboard in one minute. I mean,
who cares?

Speaker 2 (17:44):
How many boss out of curiosity?

Speaker 3 (17:47):
One hundred and eighty.

Speaker 2 (17:48):
Wow, that's actually quit a few, isn't it. I suppose fastest.

Speaker 3 (17:51):
Time to complete a ten meters shuttle run pushing a pram. Okay,
we're going to I mean most table tennis balls and
shaving fome on the head and thirty seconds. Like, what
are you doing? Mate?

Speaker 2 (18:06):
He's in the book. I feel like I've never seen
these in the Guinness would Record book.

Speaker 3 (18:11):
I mean most behind the back flying disc catches in
one minute. Humiliating Jerry well In.

Speaker 4 (18:25):
On the podcasting.

Speaker 3 (18:29):
From six until nine that in JEMs, nice to have
you with us. Saw'm the Matt and Jerry Show this morning.
No mad unfortunately, because he's still not well. Geez, you
must be unwell if he's not even two days mesh,
poor bugger.

Speaker 7 (18:43):
I know.

Speaker 2 (18:43):
Yeah, he's seen in another text in this morning saying boys,
I'm feeling pretty grim. Didn't he call his bed the
what did he call his bed some work?

Speaker 7 (18:52):
No?

Speaker 2 (18:52):
I don't know. That was another time he called his
bid the work bench. Yeah, And I did not agree
with that comment, by the way, And I'd like to
separate myself from that. He was calling it the bowl
of sweat, I think is what he referred it to
this morning.

Speaker 3 (19:05):
There's a big gap between the bowl of sweat and
the work bench, isn't there?

Speaker 2 (19:08):
Well, there is, But also at the same time, maybe
it's not a big draw between the.

Speaker 3 (19:12):
Bottle of sweet No, not if you're living in the tropics,
it's not.

Speaker 2 (19:16):
Anyway.

Speaker 3 (19:16):
After seven thirty we're going to be talking to black
Cap Darrel Mitchell speaking of bowls of sweat because he's
interned in at the moment. Ahead of there must win
the Cricket T twenty game against the West Indies tomorrow.
The ACC is going to be covering that.

Speaker 2 (19:29):
That's right, And I also, Jerry, I've got a bit
of a situation here. Before those news headlines, we were
discussing the will record attempt that I made about fifteen
years ago when I was at primary school, in regards
to a leap frog challenge that we conducted. I thought
for the longest time that we didn't get it. There's
been some respondents via three for eight three and I've

(19:51):
done some research and if we could just have a
talk about this next I've got some exciting news.

Speaker 3 (19:55):
Ah, this is super exciting news. I mean, I know
people have been on tenderhooks waiting to find out about
this leap frog challenge from twenty ten, four hundred and sixty.

Speaker 4 (20:05):
Three people the Mat and Jerry Show.

Speaker 3 (20:09):
We were just talking about that Wounder earlier on, who
has set one hundred and seventy I believe one hundred
and seventy six Guinness World records. He's the second highest
Guinness World Record holder behind Silvio Saba who's got one
hundred and eighty.

Speaker 2 (20:25):
He's from Italy, that's right, And we were discussing the
fact that some of those records are dangerously humiliating. One
of them is involving catching ping pong balls on the
forehead while wearing shaving foam on the head. Is that right?

Speaker 3 (20:36):
Yeah, it's just like coming up with the stupidest thing
you've ever thought of and then doing it really, really
quickly and hoping that nobody else will ever do it.
For example, most grapes sliced in the air with a
sword while standing on a Swiss ball in one minute.
That's fifty nine.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
I mean, it's a different record just slicing grapes in
Midia as opposed to the standing on the Swiss ball part.

Speaker 3 (20:53):
I don't know. This is the thing. I'm the fastest
time to bounce a ping pong ball into five cups.

Speaker 2 (20:58):
I mean sure, I mean why not? But well, and
then we started talking about the fact that I'm pretty
sure I was a Guinness World record holder because years ago,
when I was at primary school at kyp we barrow
down there, just north of christ we went along to
the AMP show at christ at Showgrounds and participated in
this primary school leap frog and I remember it being

(21:19):
quite a big deal. Was We practiced for it at
school and then we went along to the AMP showground
and there was a whole bunch of primary schools there
and we started leap frogging. And for the longest time
I thought Jerry that we hadn't got the Guinness World record.

Speaker 3 (21:30):
Yeah, which is a disaster. I mean, if you set
out to hold the world leapfrog record, all you need
to do is just get enough people, yes, and then
all leap frog each other, surely, and you just count
out the people.

Speaker 2 (21:40):
That's a good detail to clarify. That's how they were measuring.
This is the biggest leap frog. It wasn't in like
distance or anything like that, was just how many people
were involved. And as I explained before, as there was
just a whole bunch of lines of about thirty kids,
and the one line would go over the top of
the other kids, and then those kids would go to
top of the next kids, and then it would just
go on, so on and so forth.

Speaker 3 (21:57):
Can you describe the excitement before this the world record
attempt was attempted, because I imagined was there a lot of
anticipation where people excited.

Speaker 2 (22:05):
I remember at Copperborough School there was some kind of
vetting process on the kids that were allowed to go
along for the day.

Speaker 3 (22:11):
Oh really, so if you weren't athletic enough to jump
over the top of someone, or what, you're too too
much of a big unit as a kid.

Speaker 2 (22:17):
No, I don't think it was based on size. I'm
sure if you were too much of a bigger unit
they would have been worried about that. But it was
more behavior focused because you were going out into the
A and P show grounds and you know, we were
a small town school, kai boy, Yeah, and they were
worried about the behavior of some of the kids at
the AMP show grounds. As a whole, not just the
leap frog part of it.

Speaker 3 (22:33):
Oh wow, that they were going to ruin the attempt
maybe and not actually.

Speaker 2 (22:36):
Do it, and just embarrass ourselves in general. Oh so
there was a vetting process. Yeah, so there's a vetting
process at Coper. Then about thirty of us got to
go along to the AMP show grounds. I remember it
so clearly. We got ten dollars spending money, so you know,
naturally just go by lollies or whatever it was. And
then that afternoon we had the record attempt. Okay, and
it was excitement everywhere. But as I said before, for
some reason in my mind I thought that we just

(22:59):
hadn't broken it, that you'd failed. And then I got
a text on three four eight three saying, Mashi, have
a look at this, And then there was a link
to a YouTube video. I clicked on the video. Jerry, Yeah,
and it's me doing well, not just me, it's on
four hundred and thirty eight other kids participating in this leapfrog.
The video exists online and Jerry, I had to break

(23:19):
it to your mate. But in twenty ten, we broke
the world record for the world's longest leapfrog.

Speaker 3 (23:28):
Okay, so you were a Guinness record holder.

Speaker 2 (23:30):
I was a Guinness World record holder. Unfortunately in twenty
fourteen we were pipped by another school in Scotland. But
now I feel so much better and I can sleep
at night knowing for four years I was a Guinness
World record holder for the longest leapfrog ever by a
group of humans.

Speaker 3 (23:45):
Okay, that's actually something. I mean, that's quite an achievement.
It's not quite as much of achievement as this other
guy who holds the one hundred and seventy six world records,
including longest duration balancing a lawn mower on the chin.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
Sorry, I mean, come on, media minutes thirty three seconds. No,
the leap frog's way more impressive than that.

Speaker 3 (24:04):
I don't know, that's quite impressive.

Speaker 2 (24:05):
No, that's not impressive. Jury, anyone can balance them a
what on their.

Speaker 3 (24:09):
Chair, a launa? Also, long duration balancing a chainsaw on
his forehead. Why is he balancing a twenty five seconds mate?

Speaker 2 (24:16):
Just trim a hedge and mow your lawns like you
don't need to be balancing everything on your chin. What
I'm trying to say, Jerry, is I want to soak
up all of this excitement that I'm feeling right now,
knowing that I was for one, two, three, four years
a world record holder.

Speaker 3 (24:30):
What would it kill you to set up another world
record and overtake the Scottish school? How hard is it?
Just get a giant school together? It like get a
school in Auckland. Some of them have got three thousand
people in them and she's still a leapprog at lunchtime.
How hard?

Speaker 2 (24:43):
This is actually a really good idea. If anyone else
was there on the day twenty ten at the amp
showgrounds of Christ's give me a burs because I'd like
to congratulate you on being a world record holder for
four years.

Speaker 3 (24:54):
At the end of it, they were all throwing their
hats in there. It looked like great celebrations. People are
pretty happy.

Speaker 4 (25:00):
And Matt and Jewisha I.

Speaker 3 (25:02):
Was reading about something really interesting yesterday and I thought
I'd cheer it with you, because you know, obviously you've
got the Ukraine War going on. Russia Ukraine horrific situation.
There are lots of wars going on between neighbors. There's
a weird thing that's happening in the Korean Peninsula and
people forget about this. But North and South Korea there's
I think a thing going on between those two neighbors

(25:23):
which has become childish. I'll describe it as completely childish.
So South Korea, right, so North Korea obviously Kim Jong
on yep, weird hermit kingdom.

Speaker 2 (25:35):
You'd say a bit of a dictatorship going on up there,
a dictatorship.

Speaker 3 (25:38):
South Korea sides with the West, Yes, open country, normal place,
and South Korea. I don't know why they care about
what's going on North Korea, but for some reason they do.
I guess they want to unite the Korean peninsula. That
kind of makes sense. But they get so they're playing
like propaganda stuff back. They play propaganda stuff at each

(25:59):
other across a border, right, and South Korea playing k
Pop at North Korea. And it seems like North Korea
they don't want to play anything back at South Korea
because they know that the South Koreans don't really care.
But then the North Koreans have been sending balloons over
into South Koreans have been sending balloons over into North
Korea with like jpigs with dongles with K Pop on

(26:24):
them and all the stuff that's going on in South Korea,
and so that they're sending these balloons over there. I
don't know why they buy that. And then the North
Koreans and retaliation are sending balloons back to South Korea
of just rubbish with rubbish on them, so that they'll
have like nothing but just a bit of rubbish, like childish.

Speaker 2 (26:48):
I mean, in North Korea's defense the first time and
probably the last time, I'll say that what they are
sending back over could have been far worse than just rubbish.
You know, it wouldn't be out of character that they
need to maybe something a little bit more terrifying than
just balloons full of rubbish.

Speaker 3 (27:03):
Well, that's the thing.

Speaker 2 (27:03):
I mean.

Speaker 3 (27:04):
Obviously they're trying to work on getting a nuclear weapon,
but three hundred and thirty balloons carrying bags of trash
have been sent by North Korea since Saturday night. I mean,
come on, one hundred and thirty focus.

Speaker 2 (27:15):
On your own stuff. So the South Koreans, they want
their k pop and all that kind of stuff as
the reason they're doing this is because they want their
neighbors to their eyes, to be open to what's going
on in the world and let them know that you're
clearly under the thumb of on any and all that
kind of stuff for. Is that what they're trying to do?

Speaker 3 (27:30):
I don't know. I don't know, but Kem Jong AND's
sister has warned of further responses if the South keeps
up what the North is calling psychological warfare, which is
them sending over their pop music. Yes, it's so weird.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
Do you know what this reminds me of, Jerry, is
the time when you had an issue with your neighbor
and there was that there was a new dog in
the neighborhood or something like that, and it was barking
a lot. It was at the back of your neighbor's house.
Apparently they were house sitting or to something. I can't
remember how the story went, but you started haffing your
lemons from your leaven tree.

Speaker 3 (28:02):
At this dog. Oh this dog just didn't stop barking.
But it was barking all night, and so I became insane,
so as people do tend to be when they have
been kept awake all night.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
I mean, you're no better than North Korea. Mate, You're
a halfing lemons over the fence. That having rubbish over
the fence, what's really a bit different?

Speaker 3 (28:17):
Yeah, And I feel a little bit like that actually
I do feel like that and look in the cold
light of day, and now that we've passed on from that,
I do it passed on from that situation with the dogs.
I do regret lobbing lemons onto the corrugated iron roof
of Money's name.

Speaker 2 (28:31):
Oh, you do regret that.

Speaker 3 (28:32):
I do. That's good there, particularly because they were listeners
and they got in touch with us and they said, yeah,
I was house sitting for that house. It wasn't my dog.
We were looking after the house, looking after.

Speaker 2 (28:45):
The dog, and all night we just heard bang, bang bang.
It did shut the dog up there. To be fair,
I did work at it. It totally worked. So who knows.
Maybe this K pop works.

Speaker 3 (28:55):
It just seems so weird. Three hundred and thirty balloons
just sitting balloons over with some rubbish like, I don't know,
that's a very unusual maneuver. Matty Jeremy Wells The mad
In Jerry Show, seventh thirty one on The Matten Jerry Show.
Time for the latest news headlines. An eighty thousand dollars
award is on offer for information leading to the safe
return of three children. The father their father, Markoperman Tom Phillips,

(29:19):
is believed to be hiding with them in the West Waikator.
More than one hundred thousand people are expected in Whykator
this week for Field Days, which starts today. Organizers are
expecting the largest turnout in five years. And Pakistan have
eased to a seven wicket victory over Canada at Cricket's
T twenty World Cup in New York. They've chased one

(29:41):
hundred and seven with fifteen deliveries to spare open Muhammad
At Ariswan finished with fifty three not out from as
many balls.

Speaker 2 (29:47):
Although we spoked with that Pakistan they needed a win
to say the least, didn't they of course, losing to
the USA in their opening match and then losing to
India the other day, they needed a dub.

Speaker 3 (29:57):
They certainly did, and that was on that New York,
that weird New York pitch.

Speaker 2 (30:01):
I mean, so, hang on, what were the totals? One
hundred and seven?

Speaker 3 (30:03):
Yeah, I'm loving it on that pitch.

Speaker 2 (30:07):
It's a shocker.

Speaker 3 (30:08):
By that, I mean, I don't know why it's a shocker.
I haven't heard any explanation as to why nobody combat
on it. No, but no one can bet on it.

Speaker 2 (30:15):
People are betting at their twenty overs Jerry with one
hundred and ten on the board like it's nothing and
then defending it.

Speaker 3 (30:20):
I like it.

Speaker 2 (30:21):
Well, I mean, we've got son of a Mitch up
next to Daryl Mitchell. Maybe we should be asking him
about that New York pitch and how terrified he could
be of that, because I can only imagine what it's
like coming up against a decent bowling attack on a
pitch knowing that one hundred and ten is about passcort
a year.

Speaker 3 (30:35):
Totally. I think it's really I think the low scoring
games are actually quite interesting and I imagine that it
really requires a lot of good technique, you know, because
if you've got balls going up and now if you've
got bulls keeping low and then balls going through, I mean,
it's not a dangerous pitch.

Speaker 2 (30:47):
It doesn't seem to be that way. It also seems
that spinners are the ones that are doing most of
the damage on that pitch. Yeah, but yeah.

Speaker 3 (30:53):
I think New Zealand. The New Zealanders are playing in
the Westerndies. I'm pretty sure they're in Trinidad and Tobago.
I'm not sure why Trinida and in Tobago is called
Trinidad and Tobago when it's one place, it's just there's
Trinidad or debate, it's an island. Would you just prefer
to be called Trinidad or just Tobago? Why do they
need to have two names for it? Tobago is better
than Trinidad, I reckon, if there were two islands, I'd

(31:14):
understand why it would be Trinidad and Tobago. But there's
just one island and it's called Trinidad and Tobago.

Speaker 2 (31:19):
Okay, well, we can ask some of a Mitch about
that up next. I'm sure he's got an opinion on that.

Speaker 3 (31:23):
It will end up getting embroiled and geography. We wants
to talk about more than just that.

Speaker 4 (31:30):
The Matt and Jerry show.

Speaker 3 (31:32):
So we meant to be talking to son of a Mitch,
Darryl Mitchell right now, but he's not picking up at
the moment. He's in Trinidad and Tobago. And earlier on
I was saying, why is it called Trinidad and Tobago
when it's just one island?

Speaker 2 (31:46):
And JESU wait, Jerry, Jesus mate, don't you dare make
a mistake like that again?

Speaker 3 (31:51):
Felt tell you what, because what happened was. I was
looking on Google Maps and it was quite small on
Google Maps, and it looked like one island. And then
when I really zoomed on further, I realized that Tobago
is northeast of Trinidad. But it's a tiny little place. Trinidad,
it's quite big.

Speaker 2 (32:05):
I mean, look at the text machine on three for
eight three. It is fired up. We've said some bad
things on the show before, but you would have thought
this is the worst by the text response that we've
had on this. Tobago is a small island north east
of Trinidad. You muppet.

Speaker 3 (32:17):
Yeah, it's two islands, you muppet said this text there's
two islands there. You're gronk. What's a gronk?

Speaker 2 (32:23):
What is a cronk?

Speaker 3 (32:24):
Trinidad and then there's Tobago. Yeah, okay, I'm sorry, apologies, Yes,
there are two islands. Trinidad is the big one, okay,
Tobago is the little one, and they are northeast of Venezuela.
They're right on the coast. Actually apparently twelve CA's twelve
CA's off the coast of South America.

Speaker 2 (32:39):
But what you were saying, though, Jerry, and the point
is still valid that you're either going to Trinidad or
you're going to Tobago. Yes, so it's just bizarre that
you will have lump these two islands together. But I
suppose they governed under the same They must be under
the same thing. Well, that's the weird thing about the
West Indies. So the West Indians is not a country
obviously no, and so people that play for the West

(33:00):
Indies cricket side, they might be say from Trinidad and Tobago,
which is its own place, right and Barbados is its
own place. And all of these places are their own places.
So Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, for example, that's its
own place. The weird, weirdest part about it is that
you've got Guyana, which is actually in South America, and

(33:22):
then you know somewhere like.

Speaker 3 (33:26):
Antigua, which is miles away. Yes, it's a huge I
think is it called an archipelago. It's a huge set
of islands that goes up there.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
Right, Okay, so Intigo's that was mentioned in the Cocomo song,
So it's Cocomo around there somewhere as well.

Speaker 3 (33:41):
Well, that's no, Cocomo doesn't exist. It was an imaginary
place made up by the Beach Boys, But we got
onto that the other day. But I would say that part.
I want to talk to Darren Mitchel about the song
that's going on in his head at the moment, because
I think that would have a huge effect on you
if you're playing cricket.

Speaker 2 (33:55):
Oh yeah, it would just be sipping away on a
Pinacolada listening to Cocomo thinking I can't be as playing
cricket at the moment, and then all of a sudden
you're getting bold out for seventy eight against Afghanistan and
it's your fifth worst T twenty score as a country,
and it's a disaster. But like you're saying, I think
maybe the boys have just gone over there for a
holiday and maybe credit season.

Speaker 3 (34:11):
Well, it's not a bad place to be if you're
looking to do that. So the Western he's paying a
dollar sixty two at the moment. You see them paying
two twenty five to win that game tomorrow, which starts
at twelve thirty our time.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
Okay. Well, Also, gronk is the slur primarily used by
Australian Bogans to describe an idiot Jerry, Oh there we go.
Oh well, that.

Speaker 3 (34:32):
Makes a lot of sense it does.

Speaker 4 (34:36):
Jerummyaky Wedday morning from.

Speaker 2 (34:40):
Six until now.

Speaker 3 (34:44):
Nice every coming this morning on the Mountain Jerry Show, Wednesday,
the twelfth of June twenty twenty four. MAT's away sick
for the second day currently.

Speaker 2 (34:52):
Agree unwell, he's not doing it as either, Feller, poor guy.
He's sending another photo through this morning. I don't know
why I need photos from him. You know, when I
believe you, Maddie, I think he's so worried about the
fact that maybe people think he's not actually sick. You know.

Speaker 3 (35:05):
Yeah, this is a man who hasn't had a sick
day off in eleven years other than COVID, and we
had to force him to do that. So I trust him.
I trust him. I know how much he loves broadcasting. Yeah,
he loves being here in the morning, he loves talking
to you.

Speaker 2 (35:22):
He'll be here every day if he could. In fact,
there's many holidays that he's gone. You know, well, I
don't even need to take a holiday now. I'd be
quite happy to keep showing up to force them to
have holidays. Orright coming up shortly, Jerry, shall we talk
about this overpriced pie? Well, maybe it's not overpriced. The
most expensive pie in New Zealand.

Speaker 3 (35:37):
Yeah, that's right. Where is it, what's in it? And
how much does it cost? Plus apparently you need my
help for something that's going on in your life.

Speaker 2 (35:45):
Oh yes, actually this is important to talk about. I
was going to ask while Matt was here, but it's
just in regards to a little bit of flat Edmund.
We'll get to that ladder, okay.

Speaker 3 (35:56):
And then we've got Black Cap Darryl Mitchell on the
show beforee o'clock this morning, aft to the West Indies
game tomorrow twelve thirty. The ACC is going to.

Speaker 4 (36:05):
Be covering that and Matt and Jerry show.

Speaker 3 (36:09):
Before we're talking about potentially what is the most expensive
pie in the country.

Speaker 2 (36:15):
So tell me about this pie, Jerry. You've been teasing
it all morning. So you've claimed that there's a new
pie that is taken the top of the charts here
in New Zealand with it's now the most priceist pie.

Speaker 3 (36:25):
Yeah, well you know how much I love a pie.
In fact, Beer and Pie July is coming up in
just eighteen days, Meshy.

Speaker 2 (36:31):
Yeah, you fizze for beer Andjela. Don't you love a pie?

Speaker 3 (36:33):
Love love a pie, love a beer and beer in
pie July is something we started here in Radiohoki two overcome.
I guess drive July, which I understand why Drija exists.
Said it does a lot of good for a lot
of people taking a month off drinking and all that
sort of stuff. Doesn't do great things.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
For the hospow industry, It doesn't do great things at
the hospital, just at a.

Speaker 3 (36:53):
Time when people aren't going out right in the middle
of winter.

Speaker 2 (36:55):
It's in the middle of winter. So I think what's
actually happened with drive July originally Jerry as people identify
July as the easiest month not to drink, right, Well,
that's what I'm assuming, because I think if I was
to pick a month, you go the middle of winter.
But if you're a real hero, how about you go
dry December?

Speaker 3 (37:11):
Well, because it doesn't rhyme, So I think, I so
you reckon it's because it's easiest month. I think it's
just because it rhymed.

Speaker 2 (37:17):
I mean ry July just as plausible is my reason.
But is it a coincidence then that it's also happens
to be the easiest month not to drink. Yeah, I don't.

Speaker 3 (37:25):
I mean for me, I quite like drinking in the
middle of winter.

Speaker 2 (37:28):
It is nice, isn't it. Yeah, you'll start to tend
towards your more warmer sorry, like warmer beverages, your wines. Obviously,
your beer in the evening is a lovely thing to
do in winter, just to keep that. I don't know.
There's a little bit of life behind a beer in
the middle of winter, isn't there.

Speaker 7 (37:41):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (37:42):
But I think as well, it's something to work for.

Speaker 3 (37:44):
It gives you something. I don't know. It's not a
lot going on that time of the year, and it's
a good time to hang out with mates inside and stuff.

Speaker 2 (37:49):
Okay. And if you want to peer that beer with
an overpriced pie, where am I getting that over pie
from this?

Speaker 3 (37:54):
I don't know if it's overpriced or not. Man, I
think though at fifty bucks, you'd have to say it's
certainly the most expensive pie I've ever heard of. Yeah,
fifty bucks. So you can buy it in Henha. Always
struggle with that. Hen Muh Springs. It's not ham no
it well it's han Muh Springs and Cannabury yeap, North Canabres.

Speaker 2 (38:17):
They're known for its hot pools. Yeah, great pool facilities
there at Hannah Springs.

Speaker 7 (38:21):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (38:21):
So it's got it's crayfish. It's a gourmet crayfish pie.

Speaker 2 (38:25):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (38:26):
So they've sourced the crayfish from Kay Colder, of course,
and they've bought it over there reasonably fresh.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
So I mean, okay, so you're paying a large amount
of that fifty bucks is almost just a transport fee, really,
isn't it for Pj's Pies, is it?

Speaker 7 (38:39):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (38:39):
Pj's Pies. So we take the very fresh crayfish out
of the sea from Kai Cootta transport it to Hannah Springs.
This is the owner of Pj's Pies. If I filled
that pie just with crayfish, it would probably have to
double the price tag. Instead, they use creamy mashed potato
and leak.

Speaker 2 (38:55):
As a base. Okay, lovely, and then we.

Speaker 3 (38:58):
Turn the shells into a bisc a crayfish sauce with
cognac and white wine and herbs and spices.

Speaker 2 (39:04):
I'm having a look at the photos here. So they
just have a massive chunk of crayfish in the eye.
For some reason, thought they might try and mince it
up in some way, shape or form. I'm almost glad
they haven't. No, but it is just a piece of crayfish,
a hunk of cray with then mashed potato and leak
kind of scattered around it. I mean, the only thing
to do now is actually try it. Youury to be honest,
I'd love to try it. If they want to see

(39:25):
one up Pj's pies, Loo, could they send two?

Speaker 3 (39:27):
Well three? I mean that's going to be a lot
for them, three one hundred and fifty bucks.

Speaker 2 (39:32):
I mean they're transporting it from Kakota to Hannah Springs,
which is I mean a bit of a bitch of
a drive, really, isn't it compared to But just put
it on a plane flight straight up here and we
can get emits on it, and then we can actually
deliver a credible radio break and we can tell people
if it's worth buying or not.

Speaker 3 (39:47):
I'd say it's pretty it would be looks pretty good.
I'm singing a picture of it. So apparently they've sold
a whole heap of them. They reckon they could have
sold another twenty pies. I mean, you had enough.

Speaker 2 (39:57):
You make something sound exclusive When it comes to food
this country, We're gonna buy it, don't we.

Speaker 3 (40:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
I mean if I was if I was there and
saw a fifty dollar pie. I hate to admit this,
I'm more intrigued in that pie than I am in
the regular six dollars ninety mince and cheese.

Speaker 3 (40:10):
Yeah, I know what you mean. I yeah. I think
the other part around it, creamy mashed potato and leak
actually sounds quite nice.

Speaker 2 (40:18):
The rest of them.

Speaker 3 (40:20):
I wonder if they're going to put it in for
the Pie Awards, which are next month July, the Pie Awards.

Speaker 2 (40:25):
Are you hosting those at all this year? Jerry?

Speaker 3 (40:28):
I think we're going. Ready a hddak, you'll be there.
It's the night of nights, Meshy, it is the night
of nights.

Speaker 2 (40:32):
If anyone's had that pie three for eight three or
oh one hundred headache, you would love to hear how
it tasted and was it worth a fifty bucks? Surely not.

Speaker 3 (40:41):
It's a lot of money.

Speaker 4 (40:43):
There's a lot of money and Matt and Jerry show now.

Speaker 3 (40:47):
Jerry.

Speaker 2 (40:48):
Currently, I am in the process of moving flat, me
and my flat mates. As we realize every winter, the
flat that we currently have in Greenland, Auckland is a
little bit too chili. It's not very well intil added
single glozes windows. We need to upgrade so We've been
looking at flats across Auckland for the last couple of
months and we've identified one. This is great, it's all
going well, fantastic stuff. We got a email yesterday from

(41:11):
a landlord of a new place. It's a new build,
fantastic in a great area. Excited about it. But the
only thing is is I have to now apply for
this flat, and I needed to put down a couple
of references, and I asked for a professional reference and
the only name that came to mind was yours. So
I just wanted to take this time now, Jerry, to

(41:32):
share with you that over the next couple of days,
I think you should expect a call from someone who
from a landlord that is going to ask a couple
of questions about me. And I just thought we could
take this time now to maybe go over a couple
of answers to make sure that you and I are
on the same page here, to make sure that I
can get this flat.

Speaker 3 (41:50):
This is not the first time, men that you've used
my name, my good name, to try and get something. Yeah,
what you go realize is I will be honest. I
have to be honest. No, I mean I have to
also I have a reputation to uphold myself here.

Speaker 2 (42:06):
You don't have to be honest.

Speaker 3 (42:07):
I know I'll need to be honest. You know, whatever
they ask me, I will cont I have to be
honest because Okay, well, I've prepared a couple.

Speaker 2 (42:14):
Of questions for you, Jerry, and I think maybe you
should answer them, right, these are the questions that are
going to be asked. Well, I don't know if these
are the exact ones, but I'm imagining that, imagining this
is how the call is going to go. Okay, Oh,
so I don't have to fill out of form, do I? No,
you don't have to go for that. Okay, well I wasn't.
I'm not going to fill out a form. I've already
filled that out on your calf. Actually, really, yep, I have.
So that's all. That's all been submitted. But again, you're

(42:35):
just going to need to expect to call over the
next couple of days, and I needed to make sure
you've got some good answers for me because I need
this flat.

Speaker 3 (42:40):
Ok Okay, well, you you asked me the question, and
I'll answer exactly how I'm going to answer it.

Speaker 2 (42:44):
Okay, Okay, Now I'll pretend to be the landlord. Yep, sure, Okay,
is this Jeremy Wells speaking?

Speaker 3 (42:49):
Maybe? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (42:51):
Hello, this is who's calling Marie from Hard Courts here?

Speaker 3 (42:56):
How not Marie Marie, not Bay Marie.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
Okay, Jerry, you're already making this very tough on me.
Don't start talking to her about Bay Marie and stuff
like that. That's embarrassing for me and that's not gonna help. Okay,
we will start again. Yes, good morning. Is this Jeremy
well speaking maybe? Hey, it's Marie here from Hardcourts now
in front of me here, I'm looking at an application
for a flat. Do you work with a Finley Keddy?

Speaker 3 (43:20):
No?

Speaker 2 (43:22):
Oh, that's strange because see, Jerry, this is not who's
Finly Kendy. No, that's me, Jerry. I'm not gonna put
I'm not gonna put Mesh on tenancy applicatory.

Speaker 3 (43:30):
My fault, My bad, Yes I do.

Speaker 2 (43:32):
This is going horrifically.

Speaker 7 (43:33):
Jerry.

Speaker 3 (43:33):
Well, I know you as Mesh.

Speaker 2 (43:35):
Yeah, I understand that, but you also know that my
real name is Finley Keeddy. Okay, sorry, sorry, sorry, Yes,
yes I do, I do. Okay, great, I call her Mesh.
Now do you think you're in a position where you
could be a reference, a professional reference for finn Yeah, I.

Speaker 3 (43:49):
Mean i'd rather not. I've got things to do, to
be honest, I've got about four jobs and I don't
have a lot of time, so yep. But if you
want to ask me quickly, I'll be honest with you.

Speaker 2 (43:56):
Sure, okay, Well, thank you so much for your time.
So first and foremost, the question is what is Finny
like to work with as a person?

Speaker 3 (44:03):
Look at what he's getting better. I think he's getting better.
I think he started off a little bit sort of
cock of the hoop for a guy who was actually
quite young. But I think we've sort of knocked him
down a couple of pigs or two, and I think
now he's starting to perform. He pushes his buttons really
well on our show.

Speaker 2 (44:19):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (44:20):
And he's pretty good with Edmund.

Speaker 2 (44:23):
Okay, he's pretty good with Edmund. So would you consider
him to be a reliable figure?

Speaker 3 (44:27):
Well, that depends.

Speaker 2 (44:29):
This is not how you answer these questions. I need
to be honest. No, you don't need to be honest, Jerry,
I need to be honest. No, you need to get
me this flat.

Speaker 3 (44:35):
It depends on whether or not it's at work where
he's quite reliable. But if he's been out front Big Night,
it spends most of his weekends out.

Speaker 2 (44:44):
Okay, this is a disaster.

Speaker 3 (44:45):
Okay, I have to be honest.

Speaker 2 (44:47):
So okay, I'm back in my Marie character here from Hardcourts.
So what you're telling me here, Jeremy, is that he's
a bit of a party animal and we should be
concerned about what he might do to the flat.

Speaker 3 (44:56):
Yeah, absolutely, because he'll be bringing people back for kick
ons and you don't even know what's going to happen there.
That could be going on for days. Okay, this is
a disaster.

Speaker 2 (45:05):
I'm changing the name. Mate. You can't do if Marie
from Harcourt's calls, I needed to lie, I need I
needed to be honest that I need to get this flat.

Speaker 3 (45:15):
Why don't you tell me at the start that you
wanted me to lie and maybe to lie for you,
Matt he.

Speaker 4 (45:21):
Jeremy Wells, the Leading Cherry Show.

Speaker 3 (45:23):
Hey, thirty one on the Mat, Joey share time for
the latest news headlines. Not illegal first in the US,
as Joe Biden's son Hunter has found guilty of three
criminal gun offenses. It's the first time the child of
a sitting president has been found guilty of a crime
and comes only weeks after Donald Trump made history as
the first former president with a criminal conviction.

Speaker 2 (45:44):
They did some great work over there in the States
at the moment, aren't they.

Speaker 3 (45:46):
Things are really happening, aren't they. Forty year old sixteen
time hot dog getting champion Joey Chesnut has been ruled
out of the annual Nathan's Hot Dog Eating contest. He
signed a deal to work as a spokesperson for the
Impossible Foods, which has launched a plant based veena that
goes against brand roles connected to the All Beef hot
Dog competition broadcast on ESPN.

Speaker 2 (46:08):
Sorry, hang on, just to clarify this. So, the champion
of the world when it comes to hot dog eating
has now kind of taken a side step and wants
to start halfing back vegan or plant based winners.

Speaker 3 (46:19):
Plant based?

Speaker 2 (46:20):
Yeah, So why is that controversial?

Speaker 3 (46:22):
Or is he?

Speaker 2 (46:22):
Or do you happy to have meat based ones to
be part of this competition?

Speaker 3 (46:25):
Well, he can't, Yeah, he can't. He's sixteen times hot
dog eating champion, I mean, Joey Chestnut. Everyone knows him.
He's a star of hot dog eating. He's the biggest
he's like the Messy of hot dog eating. Yeah, I
get there.

Speaker 2 (46:38):
But so now he can't participate because he's signed some
kind of deal with a plant based winner company.

Speaker 3 (46:42):
Yeah, because you can't eat plant based wieners in the competition,
So he can't go on the competition anymore. He's actually
hot on the messy. He's like Pelle. He's the Pelle
of hot dog eating.

Speaker 2 (46:52):
It's there what they call him. Yeah, okay, moving.

Speaker 3 (46:55):
So anyway, this is this is big news and Pakistan
IV he's to a seven wicket the victory over Canada
at Cricket's T twenty World Cup in New York. They've
ch just one hundred and seven with fifteen deliveries to spare.
Muhammad Riswan finished on fifty three not out from as
many balls. Now Nepal take on Tri Lanka today at
eleven thirty. But you can't wait for that game. And

(47:17):
in the big clash of the day, Australia up against
cricketing powerhouse Namabia.

Speaker 2 (47:22):
Now I will say this, apparently Nepal is very excited
about their contribution to this TA twenty World Cup. I
understand that there was a massive issue over there with
people selling the car selling everything they could just so
they could get to this World Cup, right. I'm very
excited about it, so I hopefully they can do something.
I love for Nepal to be able to do something
impressive in this tournament, but I don't love their chances
during they're the Polize.

Speaker 3 (47:42):
Wow, it's hard to bit to find some flat areas
to play cricket in Nepal.

Speaker 2 (47:47):
God, that's a good point.

Speaker 3 (47:48):
I guess she's at the base of the Himalayas as
is India, so she bought us with India. Although I've
been caught out with some geography already today with my
Trigger and Tobago.

Speaker 4 (48:00):
Comments and Mas and Jerry Show.

Speaker 3 (48:03):
It's a great pleasure to welcome to the Mat and
Jery Show live from Trinidad and Tobago. Daryl Mitchell, Morning, Daryl,
how are you hey, guys?

Speaker 7 (48:11):
How are we going?

Speaker 3 (48:12):
Very good? Thank you? So well? What time do we
find you in the Wesdon? Isn't known? What time is
it over there?

Speaker 7 (48:19):
It's nearly dinner time, so we just got back from training.
It's nearly five pm here, so yeah, it's a little
bit different on back home, probably a little bit warmer
to it'd say.

Speaker 3 (48:28):
Yeah, so obviously tomorrow's game, Daryl, it's a must win
game against the West Indies. Before we get into that game,
what happened against Afghanistan from where you were sitting, Yeah, look.

Speaker 7 (48:41):
It's obviously disappointing to lose that game. We go into
every game trying to win and wanting to win. But yeah,
taking on an Afghan team and those conditions in Guyana,
which as you saw, was quite low, slow and a
bit of ten and it probably stoid of them perfectly
and we didn't adapt as quick as we normally do
or do the little things that we pride ourselves on.
So that's something that look to do in the next

(49:02):
game and get stuck in.

Speaker 3 (49:04):
Is that something that's quite unique to this T twenty
World Cup is that the pitch conditions are quite different
across different venues. I mean, what you've got going on
in New York at the moment with torrid low scoring affairs,
and then you've got fast bounce your pitches in different places,
and then you've got lower, slower pitches. I imagine it's
probably the team that can adapt to different pitch conditions

(49:26):
that has probably got a good chance of taking this out.

Speaker 7 (49:29):
Yeah. Look, it's each island, especially here in the caribbean's
very different. The surfaces play a lot different. And yeah,
I guess Guyana, we knew it was going to be
very low, very slow in a lot of turn and
then Trinidad here it's literally rained for two weeks. So
we'll see what the surface we get tomorrow and try
and do it as fast as we can.

Speaker 2 (49:48):
Yeah, morning, Daryl, it's MESHI here, mate. Hey, just wondering
during a tournament like this, boss, do you watch a
lot of cricket as well as play a lot of cricket?
Are you having a look at what the other teams
are up to? Do you take much notice of that
kind of thing or do you just focus on yourself
and just you go to training and then play the
games and then get through it that way.

Speaker 7 (50:04):
Everyone's different, But a lot of the guys do watch games.
For me, personally, I'm quite detailed and how I prepare,
I guess and watch the opposition and how they go
about their things, and I'll scout them, I guess, and
specific on the laptop and stuff. But I probably don't
watch a lot of the games live on TV. Otherwise
I find they can get a bit all consumed by
the games. So I'm probably watching a bit more of

(50:25):
Super Rugby and things like that on my downtime, but
very detailed, and I am and watching it.

Speaker 3 (50:32):
I saw the other night you got to chuck the
ball and the last over. Is that something that you
enjoy doing?

Speaker 2 (50:39):
I was going to ask you about this.

Speaker 7 (50:42):
Yeah, I do love my bowling. Obviously, don't do a
lot of it these days, but usually when I do,
it's usually a pretty important over or someone else is
getting a bit of tap. So look, I love bowling.
It's nice to contribute to the team. And yeah, yeah,
good days and bad days and although a few said
over their ropes, it's always good fun.

Speaker 3 (51:00):
We're talking to Daryl Mitchell ahead of a must win
game against the West Indies tomorrow. How do you feel
about this game tomorrow, Darrell against the West Indies. What's
your take on the pitch conditions? How have you guys
been going up against them? I see ten to four
in the last nineteen clashes between the sides, with five

(51:20):
no results.

Speaker 7 (51:22):
Yeah, look a First League personally really excited by the
challenge to take on West Indies in West Indies. It's
obviously I hope it's going to be a pretty full house.
And this is why you play the games, to get
stuck in the moments like this. So for me personally,
really excited and as a group, it's going to be
a cool challenge. You know, they've got a lot of power,
their full strength team here for this World Cup, so
it's going to be a great challenge and I'm here

(51:43):
we're really looking forward to it.

Speaker 3 (51:45):
Aro Mitchel, thanks so much for your time this morning.
Best of luck for the game tomorrow.

Speaker 7 (51:50):
Thank you very much. It would be good fun.

Speaker 4 (51:53):
And that's Jerrysha.

Speaker 3 (51:55):
I'll tell you what we should be celebrating today, and
this is something that people celebrate every twelfth of June.
Of course, it's Lorraine Down's birthday, twelfth of June.

Speaker 2 (52:05):
Now, Jerry, during that song, I was silly enough to
ask you who is Lorraine Downs?

Speaker 3 (52:09):
You don't know who Lorraine Downs?

Speaker 2 (52:10):
As meshit no, And then we stumbled across this video
here from the nineteen eighty three This Universe competition. Shall
we have a listen to this.

Speaker 6 (52:20):
Now, ladies and gentlemen, I shall read the name of
the first runner up and then Miss Universe. The first
runner up is Miss USA, Miss New Zealand is Miss Universe.

Speaker 8 (52:33):
Congratulations Miss New Zealand. Why I'll tell you what you
said that you never dream you would be here and
here you on Loren Coins, Miss New Zealand. It is
Miss Universe of nineteen eighty three. She's won all the
cash awards and.

Speaker 6 (52:51):
Magnificent prizes, totaling more than one hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

Speaker 3 (52:57):
As your predecessor, Karen, that was the proudest moment that
had ever happened to any New Zealander up until nineteen
eighty three New Zealand and New Zealander won the Miss
Universe competition.

Speaker 2 (53:08):
Well, happy birthday to you, miss Lorraine Downs.

Speaker 3 (53:11):
Oh man, I remember I remember watching that as a
six year old. Yes, because in those days, Mister Universe
was a big television show once a year. Yeah, it
was huge yep.

Speaker 2 (53:22):
And then what were you so you kind of would you?
How did it work? Were you aware of the fact
that it was in the calendar? Were you excited? And
are you looking forward to it?

Speaker 7 (53:29):
No?

Speaker 3 (53:29):
It just it just happened to be on In those
days there were two generals. But I remember watching it
and like unbelievable that New Zealand. A tiny little country
like New Zealand would win because you're coming up against
some powerhouse countries. I mean Venezuela for example. Yes, a
lot about them, for example Venezuela. Have you seen have

(53:50):
you seen some of the produce coming out of Venezuela
some of the wat Jerry, some of the produce. No,
I haven't seen any of the project amazing, Okay, quite
next level.

Speaker 2 (53:59):
Who else was the big dog when it came to
Miss Universe competition?

Speaker 3 (54:01):
Columbia?

Speaker 2 (54:02):
Oh really?

Speaker 3 (54:04):
Miss Usa? Okay, always always strong, I mean, there she was.
She was the first runner up, Miss Usa.

Speaker 2 (54:10):
And she was beautiful by the way, I must say.

Speaker 3 (54:13):
But also the way that Lorraine downs in the most beautiful,
humble New Zealand way, the way that she accepted it,
and she was so humble. It was.

Speaker 2 (54:24):
It was.

Speaker 3 (54:25):
It was a hugely proud moment for New Zealand. I
mean people who went around in nineteen eighty three will
be like, oh, yeah, whatever, but that was that was
a big deal.

Speaker 2 (54:33):
I mean, I'm still the video is still playing here, Jerry,
but as we speak, and it's really sweet. Lorraine's in tears.
She's got so many friends and family around her. Oh
it's actually Caulle a heart woman stock.

Speaker 3 (54:44):
I'm in tears. I'm in tears actually watching the video.
It's actually quite it's quite moving. It is moving. To
marry Martin Crow Downs. She sure did, and I think
she won Dancing with the Stars. I mean, come on,
she married Murray mixtead before that. What a life Lorraine
Downs has had Murray mixed it and then mart and Crow. Okay, yeah,

(55:06):
we got very interesting life. Apparently I've never met Lorraine,
but apparently a lovely person. So happy birthday Lorraine Downs.

Speaker 2 (55:13):
Oh well, that's lovely and thanks for that text for
reminding us about that, because we should be celebrating that
every year on the twelfth of June.

Speaker 4 (55:21):
It's a big day in New Zealand and Matt and
Jerry show.

Speaker 3 (55:25):
So before we go, this is important actually because last year,
do you remember we were running New Zealand's Hottest Trading
meshy Oh I remember it well.

Speaker 2 (55:34):
It was a huge success. Yeah, week's the Superleka because
what did we do last year? We got people to
submit their photos on our Instagram page and then we
had a look at all the hotties that were coming in.
If you are a bit of a smoke show on
your work site. Then quite often either you'd submit yourself yeah,
well your mate would submit you yep. And let's be honest,
not a lot of people submitting themselves. There was a

(55:54):
lot of stuff going on about here's my mate, he's
an absolute smoke show. Here here's a photo of him
and a g on a night out.

Speaker 3 (55:59):
You know, I think there was a lot of that.
But I mean, no judgment if you want to submit yourself,
because we're running it again this year. Oh yeah, Zealand's
Hottest Trade matin Jerry's Hottest Trading twenty twenty four. Cheers
to Hot Trades, Cheers to Superlecca. As you said, MESHI
the way to do it. You share a pack of
your hot trady co worker or you maybe your teammate
or your partner and you tag in the Matt and

(56:22):
Jerry show on Insta. That's right, and all entries will
be considered for New Zealand's Hottest Trading.

Speaker 2 (56:30):
The one thing I did learn last year, Jerry is
you don't have a type. It's you and Matt that
judges this and you'll eventually award the prize at the
end of this to the New Zealand's Hotest Trade for
twenty twenty four. Yeah, first of all, very exciting prize.
But I was surprised last year you had a big
array of talent so to speak.

Speaker 3 (56:48):
Oh, absolutely, And I know I don't. I don't have
a type MESHI absolutely don't. I look at every I
judge everybody on merites, but I am looking for hotness.
And look, the spectrum of hotness is broad, of course,
just one per's hot person as another person's not hot person.
That's right, and so you've got to take that into
consideration when you're judging. But I thought we came up
with some pretty hot trades. Yeah, we did have last

(57:10):
year hot some real hotties. I mean, there was a
couple of clear winners in the end last year. The
name doesn't come to mind who won it last year,
but god, the bloke that did want it, he was
a carpenter. Yeah, he was an absolute smoke show. There's
some smoke shows out there. Yep.

Speaker 2 (57:23):
Okay, are we done for today?

Speaker 7 (57:24):
Here?

Speaker 3 (57:24):
We are pretty much done. Okay, thanks for listening to
