- 1:10Speaker 1: song you open up the prison, you look.
- 1:12Speaker 2: Down and you see our faces. Yeah, that was the
- 1:15Speaker 2: other option.

- 1:19Speaker 2: package for you right over there. What's that you open
- 1:21Speaker 2: it up?
- 1:22Speaker 1: Our faces on FaceTime looking up at you, and they
- 1:24Speaker 1: were like, hey, Megain, we play it from somewhere else.
- 1:26Speaker 2: That was the other option.
- 1:27Speaker 3: And we're going to change the rules next year to
- 1:29Speaker 3: be anti sebotage. I think we need to look into
- 1:31Speaker 3: this anti sabotage.
- 1:34Speaker 2: Beautiful rule after her for next year. No sebotage and
- 1:39Speaker 2: no one can sabotage us at all.
- 1:41Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, sabotage is a great nickname for her. Yeah,
- 1:45Speaker 1: she sebotaged at a lot of people very upset about it.
- 1:48Speaker 5: On this you feel I feel just a little bit like,
- 1:50Speaker 5: I don't know deflated.
- 1:52Speaker 1: It was the way I wanted to go out, but
- 1:54Speaker 1: you had to go out someway. But then you would
- 1:56Speaker 1: have could have walked to the shop and gone, yeah.
- 1:58Speaker 5: That's that's natural, that's how you expect to go out.
- 2:01Speaker 4: At least at least this out was on the radio.
- 2:04Speaker 4: That's I'm happy for that.
- 2:05Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:06Speaker 4: I was wandering through Brisco's and you know, yeah, that
- 2:08Speaker 4: would have been Lake Bluster.
- 2:10Speaker 2: Yeah, so there we go. So you'll hear it.
- 2:12Speaker 1: If you are playing the game, you're gonna you can
- 2:15Speaker 1: stop listening right now because we are going to play
- 2:17Speaker 1: some Mariah Carey.
- 2:18Speaker 5: We'll just get out and let's all just like joy Christmas.
- 2:21Speaker 1: Now we can enjoy the music. It feels like the
- 2:23Speaker 1: Runways here. We're in December, so we can play now
- 2:25Speaker 1: the full song. But you'll hear Meghan out of know
- 2:28Speaker 1: Where too. We were talking about Blond Side.
- 2:31Speaker 4: And about it.
- 2:32Speaker 2: It was dear Meghan. It was a wedding bridesmaid dilemma.
- 2:35Speaker 1: Tash called up now full credit to her and now
- 2:38Speaker 1: behind the scenes, we can talk more about this tomorrow.
- 2:40Speaker 1: But it seemed like another voice. You got a friend
- 2:42Speaker 1: on involved. They had a story for the phone.
- 2:45Speaker 2: You're what we wanted.
- 2:46Speaker 3: So yeah, our producers have been looking out for Tash
- 2:49Speaker 3: and yeah it was a different voice. So it sounds
- 2:51Speaker 3: like she got her friend to call her.
- 2:52Speaker 2: And then all of a sudden, bam. As soon as I.
- 2:54Speaker 5: Heard something playing, I was like, oh god.
- 2:58Speaker 2: Damn, you're up.
- 2:59Speaker 1: And it was a couple of SECAs were like no, no,
- 3:02Speaker 1: it's just silence from us say like little you know, yeah,
- 3:06Speaker 1: out of nowhere.
- 3:06Speaker 2: So there we go. This is at your hair in
- 3:08Speaker 2: just a sec.
- 3:09Speaker 4: Just mentioning before but of an issue my friend and
- 3:11Speaker 4: his fiance we're having over trying to get a burger
- 3:14Speaker 4: after after nine forty six pm when the burger joints
- 3:17Speaker 4: said it closed at ten. They walked in. My friend
- 3:20Speaker 4: was trying to prove a point. His fiance is like,
- 3:22Speaker 4: let's just not worry. They're going to not serve up
- 3:24Speaker 4: and they were cleaning the grill and they said, sorry,
- 3:26Speaker 4: we can't serve and he pushed his points and sees
- 3:28Speaker 4: your open, little dead o'clock, give me your burger. He
- 3:30Speaker 4: was accused of being a man Karen by his fiance
- 3:33Speaker 4: and he essentially bullied the people into making him a burger.
- 3:37Speaker 2: People are saying on the text are going against you,
- 3:39Speaker 2: Megan going.
- 3:40Speaker 5: With that's fine. He never owned anything saying.
- 3:43Speaker 2: The kitchen should just say over to ten.
- 3:45Speaker 1: But o, the restaurant closes at nine forty five or
- 3:48Speaker 1: nine thirty whenever they decide.
- 3:50Speaker 2: Otherwise people could get frustrated.
- 3:52Speaker 5: Like your friend, here's the thing.
- 3:53Speaker 3: Sometimes the kitchen closes at different times because they sit
- 3:56Speaker 3: there and waiting and waiting and waiting. So they're waiting
- 3:58Speaker 3: until everyone's like, just paid it, and then you're like, Okay,
- 4:01Speaker 3: we're going.
- 4:01Speaker 5: To close the kitchen. Otherwise they're just standing there doing nothing, grating, waiting, waiting.
- 4:05Speaker 4: Great taste here. I'm from Las Vegas. I've had a
- 4:07Speaker 4: very difficult time getting used to early closing times here
- 4:10Speaker 4: in New Zealand. People yea, and people paid for an
- 4:13Speaker 4: hour afterwards apparently.
- 4:14Speaker 2: Okay to do the clean.
- 4:16Speaker 5: We also have to tip in Vegas, so you get
- 4:18Speaker 5: used to the differences.
- 4:19Speaker 2: Bab okay, dear Megan, ere we go.
- 4:21Speaker 6: Damn Meghan.
- 4:22Speaker 1: Someone has slid into Meghan's d MS with a bit
- 4:25Speaker 1: of a dilemma that we want to pose to you
- 4:27Speaker 1: on one hundred the heads.
- 4:29Speaker 5: Okay, this is a bridesmaid dilemma.
- 4:31Speaker 3: I'm sure a lot of people have been through this situation,
- 4:34Speaker 3: it says, dear Megan, My best friend and I always
- 4:37Speaker 3: planned to be each other's bridesmaids, But now that I'm
- 4:40Speaker 3: getting married, she's hinted that she can't afford the dress,
- 4:43Speaker 3: travel or other costs. I feel terrible because I know
- 4:46Speaker 3: she's going through a tough time financially, as is everyone.
- 4:49Speaker 3: But I also really want her by my side on
- 4:52Speaker 3: the big day, and I was there for hers.
- 4:55Speaker 5: What do you think? I really don't know how to
- 4:57Speaker 5: handle this, and it's just making things awkward and yucky.
- 5:00Speaker 4: Get a wealthier bridesmaid. It's the only early sensible solution.
- 5:05Speaker 1: That's tough, isn't it, you know, because it's like forcing
- 5:10Speaker 1: her to like spend money that maybe she doesn't have
- 5:13Speaker 1: at the moment.
- 5:13Speaker 4: The day is not about the dresses. The day is
- 5:15Speaker 4: about sharing your special moment with your friends and family.
- 5:17Speaker 1: Okay, was that the dresses out of the way, then, Okay,
- 5:20Speaker 1: let's say she could cover the dresses, but they're still
- 5:22Speaker 1: travel and accommodation.
- 5:23Speaker 4: Right.
- 5:23Speaker 3: In terms of the dresses, I've always found it a
- 5:25Speaker 3: bit weird to make your bridesmaids.
- 5:27Speaker 2: Yeah, I was just thinking that when you said that.
- 5:28Speaker 2: I was wondering if I felt like that should probably
- 5:31Speaker 2: go on the people getting married.
- 5:32Speaker 3: You're doing that thing where you pick a color and
- 5:34Speaker 3: they can pick what ever dress they want, and that's fine,
- 5:36Speaker 3: but if you're making them weir a particular dress, and
- 5:38Speaker 3: I think you should have to.
- 5:39Speaker 4: I would never buy a peach colored dress and I'm
- 5:42Speaker 4: going to be left with for the rest.
- 5:44Speaker 2: Of my life.
- 5:44Speaker 5: Really, do you have a bridesmaid dress that you're like, yes,
- 5:47Speaker 5: I love it. You wear it again?
- 5:49Speaker 4: You need to look uglier than the main character.
- 5:51Speaker 3: Yeah, but yeah, you're right, Like if travels involved in
- 5:54Speaker 3: all of that, I don't think you can force someone
- 5:56Speaker 3: if they can't afford it.
- 5:58Speaker 4: Has she heard of after pain now plays a great sist.
- 6:01Speaker 4: We yourself into a financial hole and deal with the
- 6:03Speaker 4: consequences in the back end, yeah, or like.
- 6:07Speaker 5: Do you offer to like pay for her as alone?
- 6:11Speaker 2: I imagine there's a lot of costs going out though.
- 6:13Speaker 1: If you're putting on a wedding right now, you know
- 6:15Speaker 1: you don't probably have a spear whatever to pay for
- 6:18Speaker 1: somewhere else.
- 6:19Speaker 3: And she's saying she was there for hers, but maybe
- 6:21Speaker 3: it was in a bit of financial time you know
- 6:24Speaker 3: everyone struggling at the moment.
- 6:25Speaker 5: What do you do?
- 6:27Speaker 2: Okay?
- 6:27Speaker 4: Advice you get is a difficult conversation to broach too.
- 6:30Speaker 4: What do you say?
- 6:31Speaker 1: We can't force anyone to spe money on your wedding,
- 6:33Speaker 1: but the heads that johnaan Ben podcast.
- 6:36Speaker 4: Stood inside your mouth.
- 6:37Speaker 2: So I was just eating.

- 7:18Speaker 5: I was there for Who's what do you think she
- 7:19Speaker 5: should do?
- 7:20Speaker 4: My option getting a wealthier bridesmaid apparently not. Apparently not

- 8:35Speaker 8: wan Ben podcast.
- 8:37Speaker 4: Someone's sliding into Meghan's DMS like a snake. Now this
- 8:43Speaker 4: is an interesting one. But a bride and a bride's maid.
- 8:45Speaker 3: So good friends. They promised to beat each other's bridesmaids.
- 8:48Speaker 3: And now that one of them is getting married. Her
- 8:51Speaker 3: friend assented she can't afford it, even though she was
- 8:53Speaker 3: a bridesmaid for her friend. There is dreas travel and
- 8:56Speaker 3: other costs involved and she can't afford it. But she
- 8:58Speaker 3: doesn't know now what to say to her friend.
- 9:00Speaker 4: A lot of text and calls on this one. Anna's
- 9:02Speaker 4: on the phone. What do you think?
- 9:04Speaker 9: I think.
- 9:07Speaker 10: If the bride to bee can just walk into this
- 9:09Speaker 10: with as much understanding and compassion and love as she can,
- 9:15Speaker 10: that would definitely make things a lot better. You know,
- 9:18Speaker 10: if her friend isn't in any financial position and she's
- 9:21Speaker 10: really struggling with her finances, she's already probably feeling really
- 9:24Speaker 10: bad about.
- 9:25Speaker 9: It, you know, and you don't want the friendship to.
- 9:27Speaker 10: Be tainted over this, and you know it doesn't need
- 9:32Speaker 10: to be awkward. And I understand the bride to be
- 9:35Speaker 10: she was her right at her wedding and it would
- 9:37Speaker 10: be really awesome if her friend could be there. But
- 9:41Speaker 10: sometimes in life things happen and we just have to
- 9:44Speaker 10: walk into it with understanding, acceptance, compassion and love.
- 9:48Speaker 4: What do you are you a therapist or something? You're amazing?
- 9:52Speaker 10: No, Actually, I do want to study to be a counselor.
- 9:57Speaker 4: I feel like a bitter human being just after hearing
- 9:59Speaker 4: you talk.
- 10:00Speaker 11: Oh thanks guys, but yeah, it all comes down to
- 10:04Speaker 11: love and understanding. You know, there's things in life that
- 10:06Speaker 11: are going to pop up and happen, and all you
- 10:08Speaker 11: can do is just walk into it with love and
- 10:10Speaker 11: understanding and compassion. And you don't want the friendship to
- 10:13Speaker 11: be ruined over this.
- 10:14Speaker 12: It's just not always and you.
- 10:15Speaker 4: Can always get new friends.
- 10:17Speaker 5: We'll have another wedding, like that's what I did.
- 10:21Speaker 4: Those last introduces from us not as good as yours.
- 10:24Speaker 2: Yeah, you give me on the next one.
- 10:30Speaker 4: Great day you two guys. See mate, let's get Sandra on.
- 10:33Speaker 4: What would you do if you're in this position? Sandra?
- 10:35Speaker 6: I would I feel like they told pay for the bridemaid.
- 10:39Speaker 2: Oh okay, because I've been a.
- 10:42Speaker 6: Bridesmaid three times and I've had to pay for the address, makeup,
- 10:46Speaker 6: everything to go swim and not do my own make up,
- 10:51Speaker 6: and I've messed out on pan positions because every other
- 10:54Speaker 6: bridesmaider is paying for it and I didn't have the money.
- 10:57Speaker 5: I really don't.
- 10:58Speaker 3: Agree with the making them pay for the dream all
- 11:00Speaker 3: the makeup, like that should all be provided that's just
- 11:03Speaker 3: how I feel if you've been made to do something,
- 11:06Speaker 3: granted it's for a friend, but you've been made to
- 11:07Speaker 3: wear a dress that maybe you wouldn't buy.
- 11:09Speaker 6: Well, I was a bride a few years ago and
- 11:11Speaker 6: I paid for all my bridesmaid stuff. If you can't
- 11:14Speaker 6: afford heat, just to sue, but there's a part of
- 11:17Speaker 6: your way cock.
- 11:18Speaker 4: Yeah, good on you, Good on youon good thoughts to Sandra. James,
- 11:23Speaker 4: you've got an alternate, You've got an option here?
- 11:26Speaker 12: Yes, I do. Hey, I was just thinking they could
- 11:29Speaker 12: go ahead with the original ceremony, the big ceremony, and
- 11:32Speaker 12: then have an intimate, intimate ceremony when they get back
- 11:34Speaker 12: with close, close family and friends. Maybe get a cheap
- 11:39Speaker 12: dress from an option or something.
- 11:41Speaker 4: Double ceremony.
- 11:43Speaker 5: Your friend can be the bridesmaid of that one.
- 11:45Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, Yeah, no one, No one talks about the
- 11:49Speaker 4: proper one. Raining It was terrible. Uncle was drunk. James, good, you've.
- 11:58Speaker 12: Got at least two chances of good.
- 12:00Speaker 8: I guess.
- 12:00Speaker 5: So, Yeah, that's true, and.
- 12:03Speaker 4: You James, love your thought. Thanks for phoning into the show.
- 12:04Speaker 4: Appreciate it now after you've heard the spectrum and feedback.
- 12:07Speaker 5: Megan, I think they're right.
- 12:09Speaker 3: Either you're going to have to pay for her or
- 12:12Speaker 3: you're going to have like a sit down conversation. And
- 12:14Speaker 3: just like she said, b understanding, I don't think you
- 12:17Speaker 3: can force anyone to pay for anything, especially if they're
- 12:20Speaker 3: not in the financial situation. And you don't want to
- 12:22Speaker 3: lose your friend over it, because trust me, I've had
- 12:24Speaker 3: two weddings.
- 12:25Speaker 5: Friends will come and go.
- 12:27Speaker 4: Did you have different bridesmaids of these wedding? I did
- 12:29Speaker 4: mix it up, baby.
- 12:30Speaker 5: And like there was very few people that were at
- 12:32Speaker 5: the second wedding that were at the first.
- 12:35Speaker 1: More about me, Yeah, that's often the case, though, you're right,
- 12:38Speaker 1: who are the bit of bridesmaids?
- 12:41Speaker 8: The heads that jonaan Ben podcast.
- 12:43Speaker 1: Frend the Zimba now and of course are really in
- 12:45Speaker 1: the party season. There's a lot of social functions going
- 12:49Speaker 1: along and going on, and we wanted to learn a
- 12:51Speaker 1: party trek for party season. Costantino Australian magician who is
- 12:56Speaker 1: touring the country right now. He is incredible and he
- 12:59Speaker 1: taught us a party trek that we are going to
- 13:02Speaker 1: perform at a show this weekend.
- 13:05Speaker 2: I forgot that it is beginning Saturday.
- 13:07Speaker 5: We have not practiced enough measure test magic to four
- 13:10Speaker 5: four eight seven.
- 13:11Speaker 1: If you want to come along, we've got some tickets
- 13:12Speaker 1: to come see us fail abysmally in front of hundreds
- 13:15Speaker 1: of people.
- 13:15Speaker 4: Just to give you the headlines of the trick, it's
- 13:18Speaker 4: a pack of cards. You pick a card and then
- 13:20Speaker 4: it ends up you stab a knife through the person's
- 13:22Speaker 4: card and show them the card. Mind blown stuff. Now
- 13:25Speaker 4: we've turned it into a three person a bit of
- 13:27Speaker 4: a three person theatrical play.
- 13:29Speaker 5: But to show busas where we have stuff done, I
- 13:31Speaker 5: think so.
- 13:31Speaker 1: So last week we managed to find the Prime Minister.
- 13:35Speaker 1: They're wandering amilessly through the building, nothing to do. He lost,
- 13:40Speaker 1: but come and see a magic track. He's like, all right,
- 13:42Speaker 1: I'll take ten minutes out of my day for that,
- 13:44Speaker 1: and he did. And we thought we were going to
- 13:47Speaker 1: wow one. And here's the end of the track where
- 13:48Speaker 1: I revealed the card.
- 13:50Speaker 4: Your card, Prime Minister.
- 13:53Speaker 13: No oh god, I'm lucky. Yeah, ten more days to go.
- 14:18Speaker 13: You got it on the third fifty.
- 14:21Speaker 2: That's not too bad, yes, so not not the greatest attempt.
- 14:24Speaker 2: So over the weekend.
- 14:25Speaker 4: I love this petty things.
- 14:26Speaker 2: You keep it on the tickets.
- 14:29Speaker 4: Yeah, so that was you know, five minutes of his day.
- 14:31Speaker 4: You won't get back.
- 14:32Speaker 1: So I tried to impress my wife yesterday I had
- 14:35Speaker 1: the cards. I tried to do it, and I was
- 14:38Speaker 1: very slow through the through the stage.
- 14:41Speaker 5: No, you've got to raise matas.
- 14:45Speaker 2: Very analytical. She was very watching as I went. And
- 14:48Speaker 2: so here's the end of it.
- 14:49Speaker 1: Now beat some stuff because she started pecking holes in
- 14:52Speaker 1: the track and she actually she actually discovered some of
- 14:55Speaker 1: the things she's not mean to discover.
- 14:56Speaker 2: Soder, Is this your card?
- 15:00Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 15:01Speaker 14: I did it, but I know because before when you
- 15:04Speaker 14: were spreading out all the cards, I saw you yes
- 15:09Speaker 14: years and also when you were holding the cards, I
- 15:11Speaker 14: could see that you must have been cheated.
- 15:13Speaker 2: No, it wasn't. There wasn't.
- 15:14Speaker 4: No, it wasn't.
- 15:15Speaker 2: Don't don't watch it closely.
- 15:17Speaker 5: I'm just.
- 15:20Speaker 4: Cut Mike.
- 15:22Speaker 2: There's a lot of like she was a hang on
- 15:24Speaker 2: this but there, and hang on this but there.
- 15:26Speaker 4: My god, if you if you just played this part,
- 15:30Speaker 4: is this is your card?
- 15:36Speaker 2: Textbook magic track?
- 15:38Speaker 5: That's why you were just doing the reveal at the end.
- 15:40Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, I'm a bit slow through those other stages. Actually,
- 15:42Speaker 1: we saw what you saw in the flesh are a
- 15:44Speaker 1: pretty amazing party.
- 15:45Speaker 8: Trick.
- 15:45Speaker 2: Didn't you have the weekend?
- 15:46Speaker 4: Friday night you were seeing an event, went to Blenham
- 15:49Speaker 4: and I saw a man put the bottom end of
- 15:53Speaker 4: a wine bottle inside his mouth, thinking the.
- 15:55Speaker 2: Whole wine bottle.
- 15:57Speaker 4: Sometimes you wonder, you think to yourself, have we evolved
- 16:01Speaker 4: as a human race? And then I witnessed a man
- 16:04Speaker 4: putting a wine bottle inside his mouth, and I think,
- 16:06Speaker 4: yes we have.
- 16:07Speaker 5: So the first thing I thought was can I do that?
- 16:11Speaker 2: How did he get there? I don't know how he
- 16:12Speaker 2: got there, but it was I had to kind of
- 16:14Speaker 2: like rap his It was a great party track. And
- 16:18Speaker 2: maybe it's not too late to do that on stage
- 16:20Speaker 2: for one of us, handy just in case, this is
- 16:23Speaker 2: your card. No, but can you see me each have
- 16:25Speaker 2: a wine bottle? Oh that's a good joke.
- 16:28Speaker 11: It was.

- 16:40Speaker 3: by your wives to get something that's a little bit embarrassing.
- 16:43Speaker 5: It's probably not what you think. I had a text
- 16:47Speaker 5: from my husband who was out.
- 16:48Speaker 3: He was going to a chemist and he's like, do
- 16:50Speaker 3: you need last minute last calls for anything?
- 16:54Speaker 5: And I say I knew I needed something, but I
- 16:56Speaker 5: was like, I don't want to ask. I don't want
- 16:58Speaker 5: to ask him for it.
- 16:59Speaker 6: What was the them?
- 17:01Speaker 5: It was, I don't even believe I'm going to tell
- 17:04Speaker 5: you that's on the radio. Some wax strips.
- 17:10Speaker 2: Okay, your lip, oh, you mustache?
- 17:16Speaker 4: Okay, they just want.
- 17:20Speaker 5: They do And I was like, run out and he

- 17:25Speaker 8: You do well?
- 17:26Speaker 2: Okay, Well you're really okay.
- 17:28Speaker 4: I mean you could sell it and go I feel
- 17:30Speaker 4: like you need to wax your mustache.
- 17:32Speaker 5: Yeah, and the growing his back so.
- 17:34Speaker 2: That he's got a little mustache in the moment, like
- 17:37Speaker 2: a head.
- 17:37Speaker 1: There's a little gago prison, a gag for someone so
- 17:41Speaker 1: on that.
- 17:41Speaker 3: Like I took a photo of the box and I
- 17:43Speaker 3: was like, come on, like it's your husband, you can
- 17:45Speaker 3: do it, mate. I was like, Bagger, I will just
- 17:47Speaker 3: do it. But on the box it just sees facial strips.
- 17:51Speaker 4: You go like eyebrows, off your eyebrows the but now
- 17:57Speaker 4: will get rid of it. We've loved your mustache. Great.
- 18:03Speaker 2: I was like, great, Megans getting him on board this year,
- 18:05Speaker 2: so it's great.
- 18:07Speaker 5: Actually, I used to have a friend.
- 18:12Speaker 3: Was a mustache watch and we had an amnesty. I
- 18:15Speaker 3: was like, you have to whisper in my ear if
- 18:16Speaker 3: I get a mustache, So one of you have to
- 18:17Speaker 3: take over that role.
- 18:20Speaker 4: The mustache guy.
- 18:21Speaker 5: You're probably closest to.
- 18:23Speaker 4: No, there's no mustache today.
- 18:26Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 18:27Speaker 5: I seen him a picture and he just ticks back,
- 18:30Speaker 5: but you don't even a mustache. And I was like,
- 18:32Speaker 5: well I will if you don't get the.
- 18:35Speaker 4: The correct response.
- 18:37Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, it was Yeah, so that's happening. You'll be
- 18:41Speaker 5: pleased to know no mustache.
- 18:44Speaker 2: We don't know you from caning. That was a monopoly
- 18:50Speaker 2: guy for a second.
- 18:52Speaker 5: Charlie Chaplin, don't be jealous of all the here I'm growing.
- 18:59Speaker 8: Yeah, the heads that johnaan Ben podcast is.
- 19:03Speaker 4: About something because my friend and his fiance so they
- 19:06Speaker 4: went to see Wicked, which a lot of people are
- 19:08Speaker 4: doing now, sung their way through a screening of Wicked,
- 19:11Speaker 4: no doubt, at the top of their lungs, exactly aggravating
- 19:14Speaker 4: people who just want to watch a movie. But then
- 19:16Speaker 4: afterwards it was after nine o'clock and they were hungry,
- 19:20Speaker 4: so he suggested that they go and get some food
- 19:23Speaker 4: from a burger joint. Right, okay. They walk to the
- 19:26Speaker 4: burger joint, it's seas on. The door closes at ten. Okay,
- 19:30Speaker 4: So his fiance she's like, oh, they're not going to
- 19:32Speaker 4: make burgers now, So what time you reckon it would do?
- 19:34Speaker 4: It was a nine to forty six, he said, closing
- 19:37Speaker 4: it ten. She's like, they're not going to make burgers now?
- 19:39Speaker 4: He said, why those other are open at ten o'clock?
- 19:41Speaker 4: Started getting quite tense. So now he's on a point
- 19:44Speaker 4: proving mission. So he walks and then the first thing
- 19:47Speaker 4: he sees is one of the employees scrubbing the grill,
- 19:49Speaker 4: you know, scrubbing away his hopes and dreams of a hamburger.
- 19:54Speaker 4: But again, he's wanting to prove a point. He's like, hey,
- 19:56Speaker 4: we'll just he didn't even acknowledge the fact they were
- 19:58Speaker 4: cleaning up. We'll just take two of those things, couple
- 20:00Speaker 4: of fries and a couple of milkshakes. The employee tunes
- 20:03Speaker 4: around like, oh, we're just we're just cleaning up and
- 20:05Speaker 4: closing up.
- 20:06Speaker 5: For the kitchens closed.
- 20:07Speaker 4: Yeah, He's like, why say you're open? The inevitable conversation
- 20:11Speaker 4: comes up. You can, and he can tell that. His
- 20:13Speaker 4: fiance is like mm hmmmm, and so then he gets
- 20:18Speaker 4: into a back and forth. He's like, just say you
- 20:19Speaker 4: close it at nine forty six if you're gonna if
- 20:21Speaker 4: you're not going to cook burgers, and you say you're
- 20:23Speaker 4: op teen. It's a burger restaurant, nothing else.
- 20:27Speaker 15: I see both sides of the coand beIN walks, and
- 20:33Speaker 15: he's like, that's nicely one side.
- 20:38Speaker 2: What's one side of you jumping on the restaurant?
- 20:41Speaker 16: Why why are they say they're open because people can
- 20:44Speaker 16: sit there and eat the burgers until ten, but it
- 20:46Speaker 16: takes ages clean the kitchen and then if someone orders
- 20:49Speaker 16: at nine forty six, we've got to keep the kitchen open.
- 20:51Speaker 5: And gets pushed a way later.
- 20:54Speaker 4: Anyway, he bullied this guy to make got the He
- 20:58Speaker 4: got the results.
- 20:59Speaker 5: Meaning the griller such a they reserved the right to
- 21:06Speaker 5: close the kitchen whenever they want.
- 21:08Speaker 4: And you never really want food prepared by someone with
- 21:11Speaker 4: a vin takes four for seven. If you're there at
- 21:18Speaker 4: for nine to forty six and the season closes a TENA,
- 21:20Speaker 4: you're still entitled to your burger.
- 21:22Speaker 5: Give the hospitality industry a break.
- 21:25Speaker 8: Yeah, the hits that Joan Ben podcast.
- 21:30Speaker 4: Leaking through a Right. It was good.
- 21:32Speaker 2: Yeah, it was bussy.
- 21:33Speaker 1: I went to Auckland f C first get, first time
- 21:34Speaker 1: we ever been along to see them, and but just
- 21:37Speaker 1: a grace. I thought I'd bring you in because you've
- 21:38Speaker 1: you've gone nuts for Orkland f C.
- 21:40Speaker 5: I love Auckland f C. It was my boyfriend who
- 21:42Speaker 5: got me into them because we're winning so much and
- 21:44Speaker 5: really like, now.
- 21:48Speaker 3: Did anyone can see a goal again? So the whole
- 21:53Speaker 3: season they've not lost a game and they've not had
- 21:56Speaker 3: a goal.
- 21:56Speaker 1: Con was a goal scored by the other team but
- 21:58Speaker 1: at the laf side and they got taken off. Yeah
- 22:00Speaker 1: so yeah, so another one for even terrible conditions. It's
- 22:04Speaker 1: really really cool, Like first time I've been along there,
- 22:06Speaker 1: and they're crowd and they've got the port the area
- 22:09Speaker 1: of the fans and they're just singing, chanting, and it's
- 22:12Speaker 1: really cool.
- 22:12Speaker 3: They don't sit down the whole time, and I'm sitting
- 22:15Speaker 3: beside them and I'm like, I couldn't do it.
- 22:17Speaker 2: I like sitting.
- 22:17Speaker 1: They did one with everyone turned around and faced the
- 22:19Speaker 1: other way. I didn't know what was happening there though,
- 22:21Speaker 1: I was so in the area. The best of the game,
- 22:24Speaker 1: they all like and they were chanting something. I couldn't
- 22:26Speaker 1: quite hear that.
- 22:26Speaker 5: So, yeah, I couldn't hear it. I was right beside them. Yeah,
- 22:29Speaker 5: they chant the whole time. Where did these people come from?
- 22:32Speaker 5: Because they're suddenly like die hard fans?
- 22:34Speaker 1: I think just football in Auckland. I mean New Zealand,
- 22:37Speaker 1: you know, has got a lot of football fans, and
- 22:39Speaker 1: we haven't had many teams. I mean, the Phoenix were awesome,
- 22:42Speaker 1: but it's great to have another team in Auckland.
- 22:44Speaker 4: Yeah, so were you soggy? We were out in the trenches.
- 22:46Speaker 5: I was so soggy. My feet every time I walked
- 22:49Speaker 5: with squeak and I like, I'm getting.
- 22:51Speaker 4: A cold from being squeaky. It's squeaky feet, so squeaky.
- 22:55Speaker 2: It's good fun though.
- 22:56Speaker 1: It's great atmosphere, so if you get to go along,
- 22:58Speaker 1: even the well, I mean we ended up meant to
- 23:00Speaker 1: be the wet but we managed to sneak o away
- 23:02Speaker 1: to the.
- 23:02Speaker 2: Back of the stands.
- 23:03Speaker 5: Really, we tried to get up there and they were.
- 23:04Speaker 4: Like no, and the Phoenix too. Great atmosphere, the Phoenix.
- 23:08Speaker 4: You take your tops off at the Phoenix, don't you
- 23:10Speaker 4: swing your swing your shoot around.
- 23:12Speaker 1: If you shootless people at the end of the game
- 23:14Speaker 1: too as well. I think it's a football thing.
- 23:15Speaker 4: I don't know why people have taken the top tops
- 23:17Speaker 4: off at the football clothing optional in the stands of
- 23:20Speaker 4: the football. I went to blen him on Friday and

- 24:00Speaker 4: they were like boarding for the night to leave without
- 24:04Speaker 4: knowing what had happened to this how he had been detained,
- 24:07Speaker 4: what had gone on where there's smuggling.

- 33:12Speaker 8: Just ons that John and Ben podcast.
- 33:15Speaker 4: It has been lost on an internet whole and it
- 33:18Speaker 4: was just a bit of clickbait. We're scrolling through your
- 33:19Speaker 4: TikTok feed. Just moments ago, the Amigan and one got
- 33:23Speaker 4: me about McDonald's. Now, this is really interesting. McDonald's they
- 33:28Speaker 4: say it is not a fast food restaurant, it's a
- 33:32Speaker 4: real estate company. Now here's some facts, hard facts and
- 33:36Speaker 4: figures copied and pasted from Instagram. Okay, what did we
- 33:40Speaker 4: do for radio before before Instagram?
- 33:42Speaker 7: What did we do.
- 33:45Speaker 5: Encyclopedias?
- 33:46Speaker 4: Yeah, true, nel Britannica, it was loyal. Never let anyone
- 33:50Speaker 4: down to that, that's true. But yeah, Ronald McDonald basically
- 33:54Speaker 4: just the landlord and a clown suit. Essentially about forty
- 34:00Speaker 4: forty two billion dollars in real estate. They have worldwide billion.
- 34:05Speaker 2: Wow, that is crazy.
- 34:06Speaker 4: So they've got over nearly forty two thousand restaurants internationally.
- 34:09Speaker 2: Have you seen the movie The Founder?
- 34:11Speaker 1: No, explains the story of the guy that basically he
- 34:14Speaker 1: kind of in a way shafted those two brothers that
- 34:17Speaker 1: started the first McDonald's ended up franchising it, but he
- 34:19Speaker 1: was the guy that ended up buying the real estate,
- 34:21Speaker 1: and so he became their landlord in a lot of ways.
- 34:23Speaker 4: And then he franchised and.
- 34:24Speaker 1: Started making the business model where he took it over
- 34:27Speaker 1: and became like a real estate company as well as Yeah,
- 34:30Speaker 1: so now he would buy the real estate, and then
- 34:32Speaker 1: the people would build the McDonald's on the real estate
- 34:34Speaker 1: that he would own, so the people that own the
- 34:36Speaker 1: franchises would never own the real estate.
- 34:39Speaker 8: Ah.
- 34:40Speaker 4: So yeah, that's his deal because then he charges the
- 34:42Speaker 4: franchisee who owns the McDonalds, say locally, and then they
- 34:45Speaker 4: have to pay rent.
- 34:46Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 34:47Speaker 1: Yeah, Ray Kroc was his name, and in some ways
- 34:50Speaker 1: he was an entrepreneur genius, but in other ways you
- 34:53Speaker 1: feel really sorry if it's one hundred percent create the
- 34:56Speaker 1: movie to these brothers that started the McDonald brothers that
- 34:58Speaker 1: started the.
- 34:59Speaker 5: Business still uses the name.
- 35:01Speaker 1: Yeah, they got two million dollars payout or something I
- 35:04Speaker 1: think from him, and which in those days was a
- 35:07Speaker 1: lot of money, but now you think that's nothing.
- 35:10Speaker 4: Yeah, signing over McDonald's some excercies between thirty and one
- 35:14Speaker 4: hundred billion dollars. All the real estate meta for McDonald's,
- 35:18Speaker 4: and they always you'll notice it is here. There are
- 35:20Speaker 4: always prime locations, high traffic areas and also near landmarks
- 35:26Speaker 4: in cities as well. So you think about all the
- 35:28Speaker 4: McDonald's and you've one near you, like, jeez, that is
- 35:30Speaker 4: prime real estate. They own that crazy, absolutely wild.
- 35:36Speaker 1: It's really fair though, yeah, smart, Yeah exactly. It's a
- 35:38Speaker 1: really really fascinating movie. Actually that the founder. So if
- 35:42Speaker 1: you haven't seen it, watch it.
- 35:42Speaker 4: I reckon. Yeah, so happy meals, getting happy mortgage payments
- 35:46Speaker 4: from the franchisees. It's all coming at McDonald's.
