- 0:52Speaker 1: I was like, what the hell had he started doing
- 0:53Speaker 1: the ceremony. I'm like, is this is this our winning
- 0:56Speaker 1: And then he obviously noticed that I was looking very
- 0:58Speaker 1: fearful when he whispered to me, this is not a
- 1:00Speaker 1: real wedding. We just picked two people at random. But
- 1:03Speaker 1: obviously that really stitched you up here. I was like,
- 1:06Speaker 1: oh okay, and after that I relaxed. It's like hound
- 1:09Speaker 1: Dog with Alvis.
- 1:11Speaker 3: To see the fear in another man's eyes.
- 1:13Speaker 2: So we had a fake wedding and then Vegas at
- 1:15Speaker 2: the chapel.
- 1:16Speaker 3: I've been so worried about offending people, you won't even
- 1:18Speaker 3: stop them from marrying him.
- 1:20Speaker 2: I guess I should say hound dog. I guess man, like,
- 1:24Speaker 2: what have you organized?
- 1:25Speaker 4: But married?
- 1:27Speaker 5: A gorgeous place.
- 1:28Speaker 4: The heads that John and Ben podcast, so we used
- 1:31Speaker 4: today a.
- 1:31Speaker 3: Lot of car content. I feel like I'm bringing to
- 1:34Speaker 3: the show this week just waiting for someone who you know,
- 1:38Speaker 3: I forget. Well, this is why I probably could never
- 1:40Speaker 3: reset my driver's license. What's the maneuver when you're you're
- 1:43Speaker 3: kind of blocking the road, You're across both lanes, but
- 1:45Speaker 3: you're turning and you're trying to turn in a different.
- 1:47Speaker 5: Is it a three pointer? I want to say three
- 1:49Speaker 5: point two.
- 1:51Speaker 2: Well, like you're trying to turn around from one side
- 1:53Speaker 2: of the road to the other. Is that what you saying?
- 1:54Speaker 3: Yeah, I was waiting for someone to execute a three
- 2:01Speaker 3: point turn. Now this is this is not your sweet spot?
- 2:04Speaker 3: Is it making maneuvers?
- 2:06Speaker 1: And for it making people are waiting the pressure parking
- 2:09Speaker 1: outside of parallel parking, don't.
- 2:11Speaker 3: Don't, don't he'll he'll park ten k's away rather than
- 2:15Speaker 3: parallel park in front of people.
- 2:17Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, maybe they could be an Olympic sport
- 2:19Speaker 1: parallel parking in.
- 2:20Speaker 6: Front of the stadium, a great parallel parker. First time,
- 2:24Speaker 6: everything i'd.
- 2:24Speaker 3: Been a pressure would get to me on that one,
- 2:26Speaker 3: sixty four thousand people watching your parallel park. But then
- 2:30Speaker 3: I watched this poor person to a three point turn,
- 2:33Speaker 3: and then I could feel that they could feel the pressure.
- 2:36Speaker 5: And then they put their foot down but they were still.
- 2:38Speaker 3: In reverse and went slamming into a brick wall so
- 2:43Speaker 3: much the walls shock, and I'm like, oh, I would
- 2:47Speaker 3: have thought me I would have been laughing in that situation.
- 2:50Speaker 3: But I felt sorry for them, just felt like really
- 2:52Speaker 3: missed up their boot, like crunched their boat right up.
- 2:56Speaker 2: And then.
- 2:57Speaker 5: The embarrassment too as the drive. We've all made.
- 3:00Speaker 3: Mistakes driving and you just want to just just leave,
- 3:03Speaker 3: just get out of here. And I was like I
- 3:05Speaker 3: was pulled down the words are you okay? And they
- 3:07Speaker 3: didn't want to hear from me. They were like, please,
- 3:09Speaker 3: don't just pretend you didn't see what happened as they
- 3:12Speaker 3: were getting out of the car.
- 3:13Speaker 5: They got out of the car and they're like, oh,
- 3:15Speaker 5: not today, not today.
- 3:17Speaker 2: There's no good day for that.
- 3:18Speaker 3: No it it's never convenient Saturday maybe because you've got
- 3:21Speaker 3: a bit of Edmond time.
- 3:22Speaker 5: Have you got the weekends?
- 3:22Speaker 2: But I've done that.
- 3:24Speaker 6: In the car parke downstairs, I reversed so fast into
- 3:28Speaker 6: someone else's car because I didn't even see it.
- 3:30Speaker 7: Someone was coming and they were waiting for me.
- 3:31Speaker 6: So I was like, slammed it into reverse, put my
- 3:34Speaker 6: foot down and slammed into a car and the car
- 3:37Speaker 6: pike in front of a car load of people. So
- 3:39Speaker 6: I was like, I can't even do it, hurt and run.
- 3:42Speaker 5: To see these people tomorrow. I respect to everyone who's
- 3:47Speaker 5: ran their cars onto brick walls.
- 3:48Speaker 4: The hits that johnaan Ben podcast.
- 3:50Speaker 1: Now, as a parent and you've got very young kids,
- 3:54Speaker 1: you probably don't get you know, you don't get the
- 3:56Speaker 1: credits from them. They don't, you know, as much as
- 3:58Speaker 1: when they get a bit older. They could stay thanking
- 4:00Speaker 1: you for stuff.
- 4:00Speaker 2: And it's nice.
- 4:01Speaker 1: I mean, you do you do it for love, but
- 4:02Speaker 1: it is still nice to go, hey, thanks for dropping
- 4:04Speaker 1: me off here, Thanks for doing this thing.
- 4:06Speaker 7: I can't wait for that because at the moment it's
- 4:08Speaker 7: a lot of take, take take.
- 4:09Speaker 2: Yeah, so it is a moment. That's one of those things.
- 4:12Speaker 3: Thanks for changing my nappish you don't get there. I
- 4:15Speaker 3: thank you when you change mine, exactly. It's not a
- 4:17Speaker 3: light thing to do.
- 4:18Speaker 4: So it is.
- 4:18Speaker 1: You know, as my kids get older, they they're very
- 4:21Speaker 1: very good about, you know, thanking me. But my daughter
- 4:22Speaker 1: sitting I bought a white baseball cap now a few
- 4:26Speaker 1: a few months ago, and I'm like.
- 4:27Speaker 2: What, and I keep saying to it. White looks cool,
- 4:30Speaker 2: but white risky.
- 4:31Speaker 7: It's not going to stay white.
- 4:33Speaker 3: You know, if sunscreen runs off your forehead, it turns yellow,
- 4:36Speaker 3: turns that whiter and off like your pillow.
- 4:38Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 4:39Speaker 1: So this has been like a running kit thing with
- 4:41Speaker 1: us every time she wears it. Every times she's got
- 4:43Speaker 1: I'm like, risky, you're going to touch it with dirty hands.
- 4:46Speaker 1: You're gotta get things. It gets your sunscreen, things are
- 4:48Speaker 1: going to get into it. Yeah, whatever oils are coming
- 4:51Speaker 1: off your head, whatever the inside, it's gonna you know.
- 4:53Speaker 2: So I've been keeping a close eye on that. Heck,
- 4:56Speaker 2: she loves that the head again, Oh good luck with that.
- 5:01Speaker 3: So that's what you wanted to walk out of the door.
- 5:03Speaker 2: Yeah, it looks cool, but I'm like, a little resky
- 5:05Speaker 2: wouldn't have gone there.
- 5:06Speaker 5: Seen of down. So she heads out with her for.

- 11:43Speaker 1: all the trainings, all that we see them, you know
- 11:45Speaker 1: at the bright lights of the Olympics, but all those

- 11:51Speaker 1: all those things they've been doing for four years.
- 11:52Speaker 3: Have you had moments in your life where you're like
- 11:54Speaker 3: really building up and you're really excited and you're like

- 12:09Speaker 2: a marathon, a peak performance athlete world record, there we go.
- 12:18Speaker 3: But me, you were overheard an interesting conversation you were
- 12:20Speaker 3: having in the office use today.
- 12:21Speaker 6: Yeah, to me, the girls were we were saying, if
- 12:23Speaker 6: you could click your fingers and be Olympic level at
- 12:27Speaker 6: which sport?
- 12:28Speaker 7: Like, what would you choose?
- 12:30Speaker 2: So you're instantly good?
- 12:32Speaker 7: Cuddenly you can you know, no training required, because that's
- 12:34Speaker 7: the hard part.
- 12:35Speaker 2: And do you look like the athletes that compete in them?
- 12:38Speaker 2: Suddenly you go.
- 12:39Speaker 7: Suddenly you are that athlete. So of course, like all
- 12:42Speaker 7: the girls went for like who's got a really good body?
- 12:46Speaker 3: But I also thought, who does Let's rank them body,
- 12:49Speaker 3: shame them for sport from worst to best.
- 12:52Speaker 6: But we landed on skateboarding because a like, you're really
- 12:59Speaker 6: like tone, but also you're having fun and then you've
- 13:01Speaker 6: got a cool trick as well that you can show everyone.
- 13:04Speaker 6: Because if you're doing like trampolining or like swimming, you
- 13:07Speaker 6: don't always have a poll on hand. Horse riding, you're
- 13:10Speaker 6: not gonna have a horse in the office, but you've
- 13:12Speaker 6: got a skateboard that you can show people try the
- 13:15Speaker 6: bloody horse to the office, but.
- 13:18Speaker 2: You can't show them on social media. Look at me.
- 13:20Speaker 7: You know you're true, but true. I just instantly went
- 13:23Speaker 7: to like what I could show off with?
- 13:24Speaker 5: Okay, So you wanted to have the best body and
- 13:26Speaker 5: have the best body.
- 13:27Speaker 1: As you know some of the other athletes, right, Yeah,
- 13:31Speaker 1: you wouldn't have to be I mean it could be if.
- 13:33Speaker 2: You want it to be.
- 13:34Speaker 5: Yeah, I have a question.
- 13:35Speaker 3: Am I doing this for millions and millions of dollars
- 13:37Speaker 3: or just the kudos? Because if I'm doing it, I'll
- 13:40Speaker 3: be Lebron James, thank you very much.
- 13:42Speaker 2: The Olympics.
- 13:43Speaker 7: Now you can't pick up person.
- 13:45Speaker 5: You had to pick up sport, all right, just like
- 13:48Speaker 5: Ron James Taylor.
- 13:50Speaker 2: Do you have our thoughts on this?
- 13:52Speaker 8: Yes?

- 14:04Speaker 5: general life. Ye, sport professionally.
- 14:08Speaker 13: Anyone angers me, I'm just like, don't go too far.
- 14:12Speaker 2: Yeah, to move the gun.
- 14:14Speaker 5: I'm pretty sure you've got a man in your family,
- 14:16Speaker 5: don't know.
- 14:17Speaker 3: Yeah, you'd be fair about you being Oh but jeez.
- 14:22Speaker 1: It's a really, really tough one, isn't it. Like before
- 14:25Speaker 1: I was talking about the under fifty one boxing.
- 14:28Speaker 5: Under fifty one kilograms, He's found a weight class lighter
- 14:30Speaker 5: than you.
- 14:31Speaker 2: Get punched in the face Ragon sprinter.
- 14:34Speaker 1: See all that were ten seconds? Your job, the days work,
- 14:37Speaker 1: You're like, it starts now.
- 14:39Speaker 2: And I'm done. You know the thing that's over quickly? Yeah,
- 14:44Speaker 2: trained in your life, that'd be great. How was work?
- 14:47Speaker 2: You're like, you're gonna work, You're done, I'm done some training.
- 14:51Speaker 2: I'm sure there.
- 14:52Speaker 5: Must be the early white guy in the lineup too,
- 14:56Speaker 5: this guy, yeah, skinny one.
- 14:57Speaker 4: Fella, the heads that johnaan ben Po.
- 15:00Speaker 5: You pitched a really interesting hypothetical situation.
- 15:03Speaker 3: Let's be honest. The best days are behind us. You've
- 15:06Speaker 3: had your food, and none of us are ever going
- 15:08Speaker 3: to make the Olympics. So all we can do is
- 15:10Speaker 3: hypothetically dream if we were there, we were all.
- 15:12Speaker 6: Joking yesterday in the office, if we could click our
- 15:14Speaker 6: fingers and be great at whatever spot we chose at
- 15:18Speaker 6: the Olympics.
- 15:19Speaker 7: What would you choose and for what reason we all become.
- 15:22Speaker 2: Experts to what? I love that you're sitting on the
- 15:24Speaker 2: couch sheet and whatever. You know, you're like, didn't get
- 15:27Speaker 2: the dismount on that.
- 15:29Speaker 3: I didn't that thanks, guy was their chips at his belly.
- 15:33Speaker 2: But I know exactly.
- 15:35Speaker 1: We were all experts and things. We have no point
- 15:38Speaker 1: in being experts, but this is the purposes of this.
- 15:40Speaker 1: We're suddenly good at something.
- 15:41Speaker 3: I feel like the most obtainable one, Like if you
- 15:43Speaker 3: weren't going to go, because I'd love to do pole
- 15:45Speaker 3: vaulting polevling, I wouldn't want.
- 15:47Speaker 7: These, Oh choice, why because it looks bad.
- 15:51Speaker 5: Ass when you're doing it.
- 15:52Speaker 3: But the problem is the painful training that it takes
- 15:54Speaker 3: to probably get to that point. A lot of poles
- 15:56Speaker 3: going in bits that you know, you know when a
- 15:57Speaker 3: pole goes and bits you're like, oh, that's but it
- 16:00Speaker 3: goes bad, it goes bad. But I think the most
- 16:02Speaker 3: obtainable one would be the walking. You know how they
- 16:06Speaker 3: walk like they've got lost a coin down their underpants,
- 16:08Speaker 3: sort of swaying, sliding side to side. I feel like
- 16:11Speaker 3: that's one that you could do.
- 16:12Speaker 7: You could walk they walk so fast though you're pretty
- 16:16Speaker 7: much running.
- 16:16Speaker 3: You've been training for your whole life since you were
- 16:18Speaker 3: two years old.
- 16:19Speaker 5: You've been walking.
- 16:20Speaker 1: Okay, But this is what if instantly you're good at
- 16:22Speaker 1: something and you're in the Olympics, You've got the same
- 16:24Speaker 1: pha seat You're right, what would it be?
- 16:26Speaker 2: Andrew the hats fourth freight seven?
- 16:27Speaker 5: Good morning, clear?
- 16:28Speaker 7: Are you hi?
- 16:30Speaker 14: I'm very well?
- 16:30Speaker 9: Thank you?
- 16:31Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 16:31Speaker 5: What are you doing right now?
- 16:32Speaker 2: Mate?
- 16:33Speaker 9: I am sitting at a classroom at my school, Mount
- 16:36Speaker 9: Taberit Dana.
- 16:40Speaker 5: Very good Sporting School. Sonny Bill William's Mount Albert Grahmmer.
- 16:42Speaker 3: Wasn't he uh.
- 16:44Speaker 9: Coming Bill Syril?
- 16:46Speaker 10: Was he one of those?
- 16:47Speaker 5: Yeah, Sonny belt he was one of these?
- 16:49Speaker 2: Yeah? All right. So if you're instantly suddenly you're an
- 16:51Speaker 2: Olympic athlete, what would you.
- 16:53Speaker 3: Like to be?
- 16:55Speaker 9: I think I'd like to be a fourteen year old
- 16:56Speaker 9: skateboarding prodigy.
- 17:00Speaker 2: Sing to eleven year old too incredible?
- 17:04Speaker 14: Right?
- 17:05Speaker 10: Yeh?
- 17:06Speaker 2: Normal?
- 17:06Speaker 1: You know, you know, as a teacher, normally you're probably
- 17:08Speaker 1: going get off your skateboard. But now you know something,
- 17:10Speaker 1: you'd be amazing, wil't you actually?
- 17:12Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 17:13Speaker 10: Yeah?
- 17:13Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 17:13Speaker 7: Are you choosing it? Because you want to be fourteen
- 17:15Speaker 7: years old, or because you want the skills.
- 17:18Speaker 9: Yet well, you know, like I mean, I'm nearly fifty
- 17:21Speaker 9: and I tried skating in the eighties and I never
- 17:24Speaker 9: got past an Ollie and I just wanted to go.
- 17:29Speaker 3: Yeah, the fifty year old high school teacher wanted to
- 17:32Speaker 3: become a fourteen year old skateboarding prodigy.
- 17:34Speaker 5: I love every part of this.
- 17:36Speaker 2: Yeah, I appreciate your cool. I have a great day.
- 17:39Speaker 5: That's clear great text here.
- 17:40Speaker 3: If I could be anything at the Olympics, I'd be
- 17:42Speaker 3: that weird, unusual blue chap from the opening ceremony with
- 17:45Speaker 3: the testacles.
- 17:46Speaker 4: Out the He's that johnaan Ben podcast.
- 17:51Speaker 3: Now Darryl phoned us up Monday, wasn't it. We kind
- 17:54Speaker 3: of got into a weird tangent about the best karaoke song.
- 17:56Speaker 3: Daryl had a bit of a suggestion.
- 17:58Speaker 9: I was thinking, sekula.
- 18:00Speaker 5: Well, there's only one word, isn't there.
- 18:03Speaker 2: Not yet?
- 18:03Speaker 4: No?
- 18:04Speaker 3: Well, Ald time a Darrell late for the first Tequila Baby, but.
- 18:08Speaker 2: As a Gary song, no not yet, No, Garrol's still there.
- 18:15Speaker 2: Here we go, Here we go.
- 18:22Speaker 5: So that was a fun little moment.
- 18:23Speaker 3: And then you decided to extended the peer of you
- 18:26Speaker 3: by road testing.
- 18:28Speaker 1: Yeah, we wanted to see if it was the best
- 18:30Speaker 1: karaoke song ever. For some reason, we decided that you
- 18:33Speaker 1: were the best person to do this. I had no
- 18:35Speaker 1: say in this manner A nice Well, it seems like
- 18:38Speaker 1: you were the right person.
- 18:38Speaker 3: Sitting in a meeting in low when John's up there,
- 18:40Speaker 3: when hold on first porter callings.
- 18:43Speaker 7: Decide it is a good decide.
- 18:45Speaker 2: Yeah, we did, Megan, w John's up there.
- 18:47Speaker 1: It was good and we're glad Johnno was up there
- 18:49Speaker 1: because we had about thirty people, and so we have
- 18:52Speaker 1: a stage area in the middle of work. There's a
- 18:54Speaker 1: whole lot of other businesses here. There were people not
- 18:56Speaker 1: from our work as well. We said, come down, there's
- 18:59Speaker 1: going to be a great carrier performance. They were all
- 19:01Speaker 1: there waiting. They had no idea what was about to happen.
- 19:04Speaker 5: It was a cold, hostile environment, the ten am Tuesday
- 19:08Speaker 5: work crowd with zero alcohol. Taylor Swift would have struggled
- 19:12Speaker 5: out there on a Tuesday morning, probably right, No, probably not.
- 19:18Speaker 3: But yeah, so I was on stage. You were often
- 19:20Speaker 3: you didn't want to be associated with it. We could
- 19:22Speaker 3: watch through not in the same room, right, Megan, We're
- 19:24Speaker 3: in the next room. We can watch through the window.
- 19:26Speaker 7: Glass window.
- 19:27Speaker 3: Yeah, packed house, thirty plus people, all you could tell
- 19:31Speaker 3: wanting to clear emails, head to meetings, go to appointments,
- 19:35Speaker 3: and I just had to stand up there for it
- 19:38Speaker 3: felt like twelve years.
- 19:40Speaker 2: Music started.
- 19:41Speaker 14: Oh god, how long is this?
- 19:46Speaker 2: The instrumental goes off for so long?
- 19:51Speaker 5: Is so it was the beginning?
- 19:53Speaker 2: Yeah, okay. It was asked, just watch do you say?
- 19:55Speaker 3: God?
- 19:55Speaker 5: It's awkward?
- 19:56Speaker 4: You know what?
- 19:57Speaker 2: It was? Just awkward? Do you know what you're watching?
- 19:59Speaker 2: The Oh god, this is all good?
- 20:01Speaker 7: You know, you watch your friend make a fall of
- 20:04Speaker 7: themselves and you just want to save them.
- 20:05Speaker 2: Yeah, but we didn't.
- 20:08Speaker 5: The opposite. You just keep filming.
- 20:09Speaker 1: Yeah, so you're up there, tequila, very long instrumental, but
- 20:13Speaker 1: we're building up to the big lyrical part, the.
- 20:16Speaker 2: Tequila part, and now it goes back to the instrumental.
- 20:28Speaker 5: And that we were actually fell it. We followed through
- 20:30Speaker 5: the entire song.
- 20:31Speaker 1: Yeah, well, so would you do it again? Like if
- 20:41Speaker 1: you went to karaoke? Because I know, Megan, you're a
- 20:44Speaker 1: good singer, but John and myself we're not. We're not
- 20:46Speaker 1: great singers.
- 20:47Speaker 2: Would you do it again?
- 20:48Speaker 1: Because it does seem like a fun song to do,
- 20:50Speaker 1: because there's not much singing, but then also quite awkward.
- 20:52Speaker 5: I felt we didn't rod test it in the correct environment.
- 20:54Speaker 2: You want to do it again, Well, there we go. Tequila.
- 20:58Speaker 2: Is it the best karaoke song? E?
- 20:59Speaker 3: Well you been, queen John, Yeah, if you've got a
- 21:02Speaker 3: lot of tequila pumping through your veins, it's the ideal song.
- 21:06Speaker 4: The hits that John wan Ben podcast.
- 21:09Speaker 2: Came back from appointment a couple of days ago and
- 21:11Speaker 2: you explained what you did. Now tell everyone right.
- 21:14Speaker 13: So I was due for my routine hair appointment. I
- 21:19Speaker 13: go every three months because I am not a natural blonde,
- 21:21Speaker 13: but I'm trying to be blonde, so you know, the
- 21:23Speaker 13: roots need to get done.
- 21:24Speaker 7: Looks great.
- 21:24Speaker 3: Thank you.
- 21:25Speaker 13: And my beautiful hairdresser, Kimberly at Old that just give
- 21:28Speaker 13: her a shout out because she's amazing. She listens to
- 21:30Speaker 13: the show. She took me to the basin to wash
- 21:33Speaker 13: my hair. And I don't know if you guys, espcially, I'm.
- 21:42Speaker 3: Sitting here quietly trying to google spice skills or kick
- 21:45Speaker 3: it to me.
- 21:46Speaker 2: Give us some jobs, give us some jobs.
- 21:48Speaker 7: Dollars so you don't know. Here on the side, so
- 21:53Speaker 7: you could get shampoo.
- 21:54Speaker 2: Have you ever had of like we should get you one.
- 21:57Speaker 2: There we go, we talk about Larry. After the show.
- 21:59Speaker 2: We're going to take you get your believe.
- 22:02Speaker 1: I'm sure here washing, I'm just sitting here.
- 22:10Speaker 7: Still lather.
- 22:11Speaker 2: If there's nothing, we'll find out. We'll do that in
- 22:13Speaker 2: the next couple of days. All right, all right, keep working.
- 22:19Speaker 13: When you go to the basin Johno to get your
- 22:21Speaker 13: hair washed, they shampoo, condition put a tona, and then
- 22:25Speaker 13: they do like a massage bit.
- 22:27Speaker 7: They massage your head.
- 22:28Speaker 5: It's not an experienced this because I have no heir, nothing.
- 22:34Speaker 7: You're missing out. That is the best part.
- 22:37Speaker 3: It is.
- 22:37Speaker 13: But this is where my dilemma comes in. So I
- 22:40Speaker 13: don't know whether to shut my eyes or keep them
- 22:43Speaker 13: open during the massage part of the hair wash because
- 22:46Speaker 13: it's like, she's not a massuse, so I shouldn't really
- 22:49Speaker 13: even be enjoying this.
- 22:51Speaker 10: So you do it.
- 22:51Speaker 6: They're doing it for your enjoyment, right, Well, they wait
- 22:54Speaker 6: for the conditioner and the tona to work.
- 22:56Speaker 2: Part enjoyment part. Also they have to get rid.
- 22:58Speaker 5: Of some of this stuff, yes, the dirt especially. Yeah,
- 23:01Speaker 5: So you think with eyes closed it looks like you're
- 23:04Speaker 5: enjoying it. You're right.
- 23:06Speaker 7: Made a compliment to them that you're enjoying it, but like, like,
- 23:10Speaker 7: I agree.
- 23:12Speaker 5: Listen to be fear.
- 23:13Speaker 3: All of my favorite moments in life, the moments I've
- 23:17Speaker 3: enjoyed the most. If my eyes are being closed, kind
- 23:21Speaker 3: of guy, eyes closed one of her favorite moments. Do
- 23:24Speaker 3: you think being closed?
- 23:27Speaker 5: But the alternative is you're steering them dead in the eyes.
- 23:30Speaker 14: I get that.
- 23:30Speaker 2: It's weird. That's weird for me. You're looking straight up there.
- 23:33Speaker 7: Well, I'm not like gasping at her.
- 23:35Speaker 13: I'm keeping my eyes open and looking straight ahead, which
- 23:38Speaker 13: is what I did for this whole time. But I
- 23:40Speaker 13: was like one day, if she's looking at me, going,
- 23:42Speaker 13: why is her eyes open?
- 23:44Speaker 7: You know, is she enjoying this? She looks like she's
- 23:46Speaker 7: in pain.
- 23:46Speaker 2: Because never would make I'm not asking. I don't know
- 24:01Speaker 2: where the protocol is.
- 24:04Speaker 3: So you believe that if your eyes shut, it looks
- 24:06Speaker 3: like you're fantasizing. Yeah, I'm like over this head.
- 24:09Speaker 13: Message and I'm doing it way too much. And she'd
- 24:11Speaker 13: be like, Okay, calm down, Like you're like keeping your eyes.
- 24:14Speaker 5: Just keep it proficially.
- 24:16Speaker 3: It does always weird me out when people have a
- 24:18Speaker 3: mouthful of food and they shut their eyes and like, yes,
- 24:21Speaker 3: exactly like this, you know you.
- 24:23Speaker 5: Can do that? Eyes open? It does it does change
- 24:26Speaker 5: the tone of the environment.
- 24:28Speaker 1: I agree, Yeah, okay, well let's find out the hats
- 24:31Speaker 1: four four eight seven. So we want to know in
- 24:33Speaker 1: the situation maybe you are a huge dresser as well,
- 24:35Speaker 1: maybe you what do you what do you.

- 24:41Speaker 6: eyes like they're enjoying it.
- 24:42Speaker 4: The heads that John wan Ben podcast on the.
- 24:45Speaker 1: Phone's eyes open or shut? When you go to the

- 25:01Speaker 1: face first into a bus.
- 25:04Speaker 2: Put it over that he wasn't getting a here. It
- 25:06Speaker 2: was a different situation.
- 25:07Speaker 1: That was like head first in the bar. That was
- 25:08Speaker 1: purely just to rinse and stuff out. That wasn't our life.
- 25:11Speaker 5: There was like a mafia drowning.
- 25:12Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty much.

- 28:37Speaker 6: I often don't know what to say. But there was
- 28:40Speaker 6: a guy who was walking through the same door as me, so.
- 28:43Speaker 7: I was like, I'm going to do like reverse chivalry.
- 28:45Speaker 7: I'm going to hold the door open. For him.
- 28:48Speaker 6: So the big heavy door, I held it open for
- 28:50Speaker 6: him and he was grateful. He said thank you. And
- 28:53Speaker 6: as the skuy walked through, I was like all flustered
- 28:56Speaker 6: because I was like, I did a good thing, and
- 28:58Speaker 6: I get it all in my head about it, and
- 29:00Speaker 6: I went to say I often say oh, you're okay
- 29:03Speaker 6: or like not a problem.
- 29:06Speaker 7: I ended up saying to the guy, you're a problem.
- 29:11Speaker 2: And I had a moment where I was like doing
- 29:13Speaker 2: it to talk through the conversation.
- 29:15Speaker 1: You're over the door, he says what he said cute,
- 29:18Speaker 1: and you say you're a problem, and I was like,
- 29:20Speaker 1: oh god, I have the door.
- 29:23Speaker 2: Is that all the direction?
- 29:24Speaker 7: I'm just thinking thinking it's like when you say like
- 29:26Speaker 7: great and good and it's like good.
- 29:28Speaker 6: I was gonna say you're okay, like you're okay or
- 29:32Speaker 6: like not a problem, but I said you're a problem
- 29:36Speaker 6: and you kind of walked off, and I was like,
- 29:41Speaker 6: I just told a guy in our building that he's
- 29:44Speaker 6: a problem.
- 29:46Speaker 1: He's probably handing in his resignation. Now's a problematic. He's
- 29:53Speaker 1: like one of people know about me. Oh geez, you know,
- 29:55Speaker 1: I know.
- 29:56Speaker 7: And I just I kind of was like, did I
- 29:58Speaker 7: say that? I had that moment.
- 30:00Speaker 6: I was like, do I stop him? And do I
- 30:01Speaker 6: awkwardly explain that he just kind of walked off, and
- 30:04Speaker 6: then I was like, maybe he didn't hear me.
- 30:06Speaker 1: You have those moments so often when you're an autopilot,
- 30:08Speaker 1: I find as well. You know, sometimes you know if
- 30:11Speaker 1: someone's like, yeah, taxis to the airport they have they
- 30:13Speaker 1: have a good flight, You're like you do and then
- 30:15Speaker 1: you walk out You're.
- 30:16Speaker 2: Like, what did I like hip?
- 30:20Speaker 7: And you're like, I'm good things.
- 30:22Speaker 5: You're like, I had an interesting moment, who was it?
- 30:27Speaker 5: Last week?
- 30:28Speaker 3: Where I bumped into a gentleman in the street and
- 30:32Speaker 3: he decided to go sort of post alone tattoos on
- 30:35Speaker 3: the face and everything they've done done the full commitments
- 30:38Speaker 3: to tattoos. And he came up to me and he said, oh,
- 30:42Speaker 3: you know, we used to listen to it to you
- 30:45Speaker 3: guys in prison, right, love your work? And then I responded, no,
- 30:50Speaker 3: I love your work. I don't know what work, what
- 30:53Speaker 3: his line of work was, and how it landed him
- 30:55Speaker 3: in prison, but you I'm sure he did it to
- 30:59Speaker 3: the best of his but you.
- 31:01Speaker 5: Don't know what to I don't know what else to say.
- 31:03Speaker 7: That situation of your work, wasn't it quite?
- 31:06Speaker 1: Ye don't know what the work was. No, maybe next
- 31:09Speaker 1: time find out what the work is and then and
- 31:11Speaker 1: then clarify it.
- 31:12Speaker 5: Yeah, but it does.
- 31:14Speaker 3: And a lot of the other one too is when
- 31:16Speaker 3: you ask someone, Oh, you say hello to someone, they
- 31:19Speaker 3: say hello, and you respond you volley backer, good thanks immediately.
- 31:26Speaker 5: Good things. Hasn't been nuice.
- 31:27Speaker 2: They don't care.
- 31:28Speaker 3: No, no one cares how you're doing. And that's how
- 31:31Speaker 3: automatic that responses, and how need York it is, isn't
- 31:33Speaker 3: it as soon as you say good.
- 31:35Speaker 7: Things exactly, that guy can hear me.
- 31:37Speaker 4: I'm sorry, you're not a problems that johnaan Ben podcast.
- 31:41Speaker 3: I really appreciate it. I have an issue with the well.
- 31:44Speaker 3: I didn't have an issue with the paid forward system
- 31:46Speaker 3: until it was brought to my attention. So you know
- 31:49Speaker 3: some businesses now and the example I'll be using is
- 31:52Speaker 3: from a petrol station. You go to the counter and
- 31:55Speaker 3: if you're paying perpetual, you're asked.
- 31:58Speaker 5: Would you like to pay it forward?
- 32:00Speaker 6: You know?
- 32:00Speaker 3: Being that so, I don't want a man explaining paying
- 32:02Speaker 3: it forward?
- 32:03Speaker 2: But can your man explaining the picture station scenario?
- 32:06Speaker 5: Because the picture oh you've.
- 32:08Speaker 7: Never had a picture station a different petrol station.
- 32:11Speaker 3: I don't want to name and Shane the petrol station. Well,
- 32:13Speaker 3: they go, oh, would you like to pay it forward for,
- 32:15Speaker 3: you know, another customer?
- 32:17Speaker 2: And I was like, I've never had that. I've never
- 32:19Speaker 2: been asked that in the picture.
- 32:20Speaker 7: Station, kind of like, no, I've paid it enough.
- 32:22Speaker 2: For my own.
- 32:23Speaker 3: Can I pay it now just for myself instead of
- 32:25Speaker 3: paying it for But yeah, I've obviously been the narcissistic
- 32:28Speaker 3: radio now. So I looked around to see who was
- 32:30Speaker 3: watching this in direction, and there was someone behind me,
- 32:33Speaker 3: and I said, okay, yeah, I'll pay it forward ten
- 32:36Speaker 3: dollars choos Okay, he gets choose dog ten dollars that
- 32:40Speaker 3: might you know, given picture prices, get them off the
- 32:42Speaker 3: full course ten dollars with a picture. And then as
- 32:45Speaker 3: I've paid it forward, genuine behind me, he's.
- 32:49Speaker 5: Got an issue with it.
- 32:50Speaker 2: He's like, was he a bit?
- 32:51Speaker 5: What does he have to pay it forward? To the
- 32:53Speaker 5: guy behind the counter.
- 32:54Speaker 3: He's that you are a multi national, multi billion dollar
- 32:58Speaker 3: pictrol station. Why don't you just pay it forward. We're
- 33:01Speaker 3: already paying you. Why don't you pay it forward for
- 33:03Speaker 3: the customer? Like we'll give us a discount on patrol.
- 33:06Speaker 3: This was he also like the type of guy who
- 33:08Speaker 3: had a problem with government mandated lockdowns, like one of those.
- 33:11Speaker 3: But I was like, damn right, brother, and I was like,
- 33:13Speaker 3: can we undo that trail? And couldn't under the transaction,
- 33:15Speaker 3: I've already done it.
- 33:17Speaker 1: That's really interesting because like, what's to say the petrol
- 33:19Speaker 1: station don't tell the next person they paid it Ford.
- 33:21Speaker 3: I was just about to say, I've never walked up
- 33:23Speaker 3: to account. I was gonna do that before Oh numb
- 33:26Speaker 3: nuts paid it forward for you. It will take ten
- 33:27Speaker 3: bucks off your pictures happen.
- 33:29Speaker 2: It's just giving.
- 33:29Speaker 1: You're giving him them avice that will tip the little
- 33:31Speaker 1: bonus to the petrol station potentially.
- 33:33Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 33:34Speaker 6: Our cafe that we used to have, we had a
- 33:35Speaker 6: thing called suspended coffees, so people if they wanted to,
- 33:39Speaker 6: we never asked them, but if they wanted to, they
- 33:40Speaker 6: could buy a suspended coffee and it got stuck up
- 33:43Speaker 6: on the wall.
- 33:43Speaker 7: And then if anyone in our.
- 33:44Speaker 6: Little coffee community ever had like a terrible day or
- 33:48Speaker 6: you know, like something that maybe they dropped their coffee.
- 33:50Speaker 6: Anything bad happens in anyone's life, then they get gifted
- 33:53Speaker 6: a suspended coffee from someone.
- 33:55Speaker 7: Who's bought one.
- 33:56Speaker 3: It's a lovely but it.
- 33:58Speaker 6: Sits up there so everyone can see. That's how many
- 34:00Speaker 6: there are, and people like opt into it.
- 34:03Speaker 7: We never asked, but how many.
- 34:05Speaker 2: People would do it? Just a real thanks for the coffee.
- 34:14Speaker 2: That's good.
- 34:16Speaker 3: I don't know who this guy was, so I appreciate
- 34:17Speaker 3: him going into.
- 34:18Speaker 5: Bat for me.
- 34:19Speaker 7: But then they still pay the ten bucks.
- 34:20Speaker 5: Well I'd already done it.
- 34:22Speaker 3: And then he raised the issue after the transaction and
- 34:24Speaker 3: you can tell the guy behind the counters like, oh, bra,
- 34:27Speaker 3: I don't get paid enough to make up an answer
- 34:29Speaker 3: for your mate.
- 34:30Speaker 5: That's just the pay it for. Has anyone actually received
- 34:32Speaker 5: received the pay it forward? A lot of people would
- 34:35Speaker 5: have paid it forward?
- 34:35Speaker 2: Oh yeah?
- 34:36Speaker 5: Is it a scam from the industry?
- 34:38Speaker 4: It is the hats that johnaan Ben podcast.
- 34:41Speaker 1: Credible watching the Black Fan sevens when New Zealand's first
- 34:44Speaker 1: medal and it was a gold against Canada.
- 34:45Speaker 3: And cheriknare is in the stadium from the New Zealand
- 34:49Speaker 3: Herald Bong.
- 34:51Speaker 1: From Paris and a great result for New Zealand. You
- 34:55Speaker 1: were at the game as our rugby sevens. He need
- 34:58Speaker 1: one gold?
- 34:59Speaker 3: I know?
- 35:00Speaker 8: Oh how good was that? I am still here at
- 35:02Speaker 8: Star Defrance.
- 35:03Speaker 11: The crowd was absolutely electric and just such an incredible
- 35:07Speaker 11: result for our women's side, back to back Olympic camps
- 35:11Speaker 11: and our first meddle in a gold Like what a
- 35:13Speaker 11: way to start.
- 35:15Speaker 3: You feel like it was always destined, but then having.
- 35:19Speaker 11: That pressure, Yeah, I think we all had really high
- 35:22Speaker 11: hopes for the blackf and sevens. They're always so dominant
- 35:26Speaker 11: and that you know, they looked in really good form today,
- 35:28Speaker 11: but you're right, you know, anything can happen. And after
- 35:30Speaker 11: the first half of the game, when Canada were a
- 35:33Speaker 11: little bit ahead, were like, oh okay, you know, and
- 35:36Speaker 11: we've got a yellow card and I was like, what's
- 35:37Speaker 11: gonna happen here? But amazing, Like I think I looked
- 35:40Speaker 11: around at some of the other New Zealand media and
- 35:42Speaker 11: they were all so calm. They're like, nah, nah, they've
- 35:44Speaker 11: got this, They've got this. I was probably a bit
- 35:45Speaker 11: more nervous than them, but amazing to see them on.
- 35:48Speaker 2: It the stadium. We're having a lock on the TV
- 35:51Speaker 2: screens over here. It just seems it seems enormous. I mean,
- 35:54Speaker 2: how many people are in the stadium.
- 35:56Speaker 11: I believe they were around sixty five thousand fans here
- 35:58Speaker 11: for the final. It is a massive stadium, and you
- 36:01Speaker 11: can imagine just the noise of the crowd when you
- 36:04Speaker 11: know everyone's cheering on that final whistle.
- 36:06Speaker 3: We're watching vision of them now heading up onto the podium.
- 36:10Speaker 3: Are you watching this as we're speaking.
- 36:12Speaker 8: I'm kind I can kind of see it. I'm just
- 36:14Speaker 8: around the back.
- 36:15Speaker 11: I was trying to get to a bit more of
- 36:16Speaker 11: a quiet space for you guys, because when I say
- 36:18Speaker 11: the crowds out, it is very very loud.
- 36:20Speaker 5: I feel like you should probably be there watching this
- 36:22Speaker 5: right now.
- 36:23Speaker 2: Away from Joe.
- 36:25Speaker 8: I can kind of like peek it a little bit
- 36:27Speaker 8: through one of the doors.
- 36:28Speaker 3: You should get out of the toilet watch this historic moment.
- 36:33Speaker 3: Mean you're like, oh, jeez, you've spoken to any of
- 36:35Speaker 3: the Black Ferns.
- 36:38Speaker 8: I haven't yet. We'll be speaking to them very very soon.
- 36:42Speaker 11: But I did speak to Sarah Henney after the semi
- 36:45Speaker 11: final when she was already tears then and just how
- 36:47Speaker 11: special this was and what it meant to her. So
- 36:49Speaker 11: I can only imagine her and the team now with
- 36:50Speaker 11: the gold met around the next im just going to
- 36:53Speaker 11: be such an emotional and incredible evening for them.

- 42:15Speaker 1: You're like, oh, geez, I'm so a lot of amazing
- 42:18Speaker 1: athletic performances over there at the Olympics, but from yourself
- 42:21Speaker 1: as well, I mean, how much sleep are you running on?
- 42:23Speaker 1: You were messaging me yesterday about this radio interview, and
- 42:25Speaker 1: then I was like, what, hang on, what time is
- 42:27Speaker 1: it for you?
- 42:29Speaker 11: Yeah, you don't get a lot of sleep when you're
- 42:30Speaker 11: covering the Olympics, but it's one of those things that
- 42:32Speaker 11: you know, you know what you're signing up for, but
- 42:34Speaker 11: it's such an incredible event to cover, so it kind
- 42:37Speaker 11: of balances itself out.
- 42:38Speaker 8: But I was definitely a little bit relieved this morning
- 42:40Speaker 8: when I woke up.
- 42:41Speaker 11: My alarm went off at about six am, and I
- 42:43Speaker 11: was getting ready for the triathlon, and then I found
- 42:45Speaker 11: out it was postponed and I was like, oh, fantastic,
- 42:48Speaker 11: So I rolled over for another couple hours.
- 42:50Speaker 8: So sort of a little bit relieved for that.
- 42:52Speaker 1: Well, let's talk about the triathon, because obviously the water
- 42:55Speaker 1: conditions and the River Seine.
- 42:58Speaker 2: There was rain in.
- 42:59Speaker 1: The weekend and that meant the things great words like
- 43:01Speaker 1: E coli are being bandied around at the moment. They're
- 43:04Speaker 1: not sure if they're going to swim in it. You
- 43:06Speaker 1: went down yesterday and took some water out of it
- 43:08Speaker 1: to have a look at it.
- 43:10Speaker 8: I did.
- 43:11Speaker 11: I went to investigate myself for what the sin was
- 43:13Speaker 11: looking like when I put it in a bottle.
- 43:15Speaker 8: It definitely didn't look as a kid as.
- 43:17Speaker 11: It does sort of on the surface because it was
- 43:19Speaker 11: quite brown and all of a sudiment.
- 43:21Speaker 8: And I saw a shoe floating down. It's definitely not
- 43:26Speaker 8: It's definitely not in the neck.
- 43:28Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 43:28Speaker 8: I mean last night the triathlon was still set to go.
- 43:31Speaker 11: Organizer as a really optimistic and I was like, Okay,
- 43:33Speaker 11: we'll see been sure enough this morning. Nope, water's quality
- 43:36Speaker 11: not up to standard. Postponed till tomorrow. And the interesting
- 43:39Speaker 11: thing is on August second is the last date they
- 43:42Speaker 11: can postpone it to and if the sins still not
- 43:45Speaker 11: up to stand it, it changes. It's going to become
- 43:48Speaker 11: a I think it starts with a run, bike and
- 43:50Speaker 11: then a run, So they had to ditch the swimming all.
- 43:53Speaker 5: Really, now, what stringent testing did you do on the water?
- 43:56Speaker 5: Was it the taste test?
- 43:59Speaker 10: You know what?
- 44:00Speaker 4: Though?
- 44:00Speaker 11: When I put that priddle away, I had to make
- 44:02Speaker 11: real conscious note to put like, chuck the water out
- 44:05Speaker 11: because I had a moment where I thought I'm going
- 44:06Speaker 11: to reach for this and you'll drink it.
- 44:09Speaker 3: We should, we should bring it back here and we'll
- 44:11Speaker 3: use it in the radio stuff doing Russian Russian really.
- 44:19Speaker 2: The name.
- 44:19Speaker 8: I do feel for the triathletes.
- 44:21Speaker 11: I think, even if they do manage to do the swim,
- 44:24Speaker 11: we're saying that the pollution levels were too high today,
- 44:26Speaker 11: So if they're good tomorrow, they must just be good enough,
- 44:29Speaker 11: which means they're still not ideal.
- 44:32Speaker 6: So what's going to change over twenty four hours that's
- 44:35Speaker 6: going to make it like much.
- 44:36Speaker 7: Better the swimming?
- 44:36Speaker 5: You know, it feels like the same pollution is going
- 44:38Speaker 5: to be in there.
- 44:40Speaker 7: Have we seen the mire since she went for a
- 44:42Speaker 7: swim in there?
- 44:43Speaker 4: You know what?
- 44:44Speaker 8: I haven't or heard anything from this. Apparently the levels
- 44:49Speaker 8: weren't actually very good.
- 44:50Speaker 11: Apparently on the day that she's from there went back
- 44:52Speaker 11: and they're like, oh, actually we may have not measured
- 44:54Speaker 11: that correctly.
- 44:55Speaker 3: Maybe they need to take the approach that moment MANI
- 44:57Speaker 3: pride does. When she saw me head above you know
- 44:59Speaker 3: how mother's swim head above water.
- 45:01Speaker 8: Yeah, I saw an athlete on TikTok.
- 45:03Speaker 11: I think she's from the US. She was making a
- 45:06Speaker 11: joke about she had like some duct tape that she
- 45:08Speaker 11: taped over her mouth.
- 45:09Speaker 8: She was like preparing for the triathlon.
- 45:12Speaker 3: Do you know the week books Kikids Triathlon. When we
- 45:14Speaker 3: went to that they couldn't do the swim park because
- 45:16Speaker 3: all the sewer sewards had gone into the ocean. So
- 45:19Speaker 3: it's happening all over the world, ruined, ruined water.
- 45:23Speaker 1: Well done us, So what next for you? Obviously it's
- 45:26Speaker 1: getting late in the night there. Things are wrapping up
- 45:28Speaker 1: for the for today. But what's happening over the next
- 45:31Speaker 1: couple of days.
- 45:32Speaker 8: Yeah, things wrapping up here.
- 45:33Speaker 11: I've still got a few hours ahead of meet with
- 45:35Speaker 11: all the aftermath of this incredible gold midle. But with
- 45:38Speaker 11: tomorrow's action tonight New Zealand time. Hopefully that means triathlon
- 45:42Speaker 11: goes ahead. There's also some rowing and some sailing, and
- 45:46Speaker 11: then if you're looking ahead to the next few days,
- 45:48Speaker 11: later on in the week, we're going to start seeing
- 45:50Speaker 11: the athletics, which I know a lot of people are
- 45:51Speaker 11: really excited about.
- 45:52Speaker 3: Well, sure, have you spoken to any of the black Ferns.
- 45:57Speaker 8: I haven't yet.

- 46:01Speaker 11: I did speak to Sarah Hedney after the semi final
- 46:03Speaker 11: when she was already tears then and just how special
- 46:06Speaker 11: this was and what it meant to her. So I
- 46:07Speaker 11: can only imagine her and the team now with the
- 46:09Speaker 11: gold medal around the next just going to be such
- 46:12Speaker 11: an emotional and incredible evening for them.
