  Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right. We're going from one of the kids
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: teachers at primary school. It was like this was concerning whatever,
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: you know, because you see her taking some time off

• 1:07
  Speaker 1: the Ministry of Education and stuff.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they have to have concerned. They probably don't, to
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: be honest, They probably go home and slam back a
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: bottle of seven forget about that.
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: Probably the same email and they're like, dear Ben, dear Mary.
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: This is concerning anyway. Podcast. I hope you enjoyed the
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: show and we'll be getting concerned about stuff now.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Netflix. You know, i'd say most households around the country whatever. Netflix,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: you know, it seems like it's they got in first.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: A lot of people you know have it and continue
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: to have it, and it's provided great entertainment. I'm not
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: not taking that away from it. But it's a bit
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: of a nark.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: They'll be all right, but of a nark is tracking you.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: Well, no, this is the thing. And it was actually
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: played into my benefit last night because I've got the
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: standard Netflix. As many people have you seen, you watch
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: two screens at the same you can watch two people
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: can watch the thing at the same time on the
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: same log. And so my daughters have been doing their
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: musical theater stuff quite quite late nights and we're like, hey,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: it's time, you guys need to get to be a
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: give an early night. Both of them went to be it.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: I said good night to them, and then I went
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: to the bedroom and I like to watch something on
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: TV to go to, you know, And I started to watch.
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: Watch, watched TV and bed. Yeah, you can't have a
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: cup of tea in bed.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: No, I don't like a couple of sea food.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: And it's just like that's putting him.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, go and see it. My life tries to do that.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: I'm like, but I got a double pasty clif Richard.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it'd be great. So I'm watching at the moment
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: that spread the second series of Sprint. It's just really
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: really good. So I started watching that and then all
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: of a sudden it stopped. Netflix stopped. I was like, oh,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: that's weird. And then it went too many devices, so
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: it came on my screen. Too many devices watching, and
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: it went through and it named the shot gossip Girl
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: Indie and brackets iPad see you pressent break see it
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: in brackets laptop, and this is all happened in real time,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: real time, by the way, to be together. Then it's like,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: if you want to upgrade for seven dollars more, but oh,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: you can have four screens going so you can go
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: and rinse your daughter. Yeah, and I'm going to go
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: rents to the daughters.
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: I always find a dodgy that it told you what
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: it was, because we used to share my family's while.
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: It used to be like your brother is watching this,
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: and you're like, yo, watching this.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: It's dark in there, and I'm like, hey, we're watching

• 3:27
  Speaker 1: break on the laptop? Thank you?

• 3:34
  Speaker 1: what like I played the bill wanted to throw me
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: off anyway, I was first on there, but but anyway,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: it threw me off for some reason, and.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: You got upset with your extended mooching off the account too.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: They used to have my yeah, my account details. They
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: don't anymore, and then just they'd be watching it and
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: you couldn't get on. You're like, hey, guys, I want
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: to watch something like oh, we're halfway through a movie.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: It's a pay for Netflix. But anyway, we've sorted that
• 3:59

• 4:02
  Speaker 1: a nark. Yeah yeah, it's.
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: The John and Ben podcast and you're just missing.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: Just before eight o'clock, Netflix knocked on your daughters last
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: night who was sneakily.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: Watching some shows in the beard room. That told me
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: because I was trying to watch the show as well,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: and it kicked me off right though.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: But the person you you've got.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: The credit caund although it was the first on there,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: but anyway, it was like, they're trying to upgrade me

• 4:25
  Speaker 4: Should be able to like redister the prime account. Yeah,
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: so you're like, I pay the bells on the prime account.
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: I can never be kicked off everyone else.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: A someone else's text her as well.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, now Kelly, morning to you. You had a Netflix
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: password is shoe. I did what happened?
• 4:40
  Speaker 6: I couldn't remember it and I got a new laptop
• 4:43
  Speaker 6: and I was like, oh, I'll just reset the password
• 4:46
  Speaker 6: as easy. So I reset the password. I got in,
• 4:48
  Speaker 6: I started watching something, and then a couple of hours
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: later I got a text message from an ex boyfriend
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: from three years prior, and all I said was, oh,
• 4:58
  Speaker 6: I guess I have to pay for my own Netflix now.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Three he'd been mooching off it.
• 5:04
  Speaker 6: It had been logged into his TV from when we've
• 5:07
  Speaker 6: been living together, and we obviously went our own ways
• 5:09
  Speaker 6: and I never logged out of it because I didn't
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: think of it. And it was before the Netflix multi
• 5:14
  Speaker 6: screen thing happened, and he'd just been watching Netflix and
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: of course tried to log and couldn't get in and went, ah.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Great, hey three years.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: There was never anything.
• 5:25
  Speaker 6: I couldn't believe it.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: There was never anything like continue watching some show that
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: you'd never watched.
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: Like no, And I didn't even I didn't sort of
• 5:34
  Speaker 6: really dawn on me that he was watching things. And
• 5:36
  Speaker 6: if it was in the list, it wasn't that I
• 5:38
  Speaker 6: wasn't paying attention. It was just I never thought someone
• 5:42
  Speaker 6: else was watching.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: No, you'd think once the relationship of that TV. But no, No,
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: he was still logged into you, so you.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: Wouldn't say anything. You don't text them.
• 5:50
  Speaker 6: Three year I got married. By then, I'm pretty sure
• 5:56
  Speaker 6: I was. I had a new partner and I got
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: married and then that happened.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: I appreciate you cool, Kelly. You were on my bloody

• 6:25
  Speaker 1: right around the country. But a a heat wave of
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: coming over from Australia one degrees and.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: That'll be good for the vineyards. We're there on Friday.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: Do you have a funny thing I learn about vineyards?
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: There's an old wife's tale that they plant rose bushes,
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: one rose bush at the end of the row of vines,
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: and that can tell if there's any diseases in the
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: soil the rose because the roses will start to wilt
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: and then they bang onto the vines. But then the
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: guy who's driving with people still do it, but it's
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: not there's science involved. Now. Now, yesterday unintentionally unloaded a secret.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: I think I witnessed this sensitive any information you passed
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: the John, he will say to someone at some stage, people,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: I don't know that. Every time I was I'll tell
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: you a second. This is gonna end up somewhere on
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: the radio talking to someone.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: I always give you secrets and I'm.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Like, oh, you can't, you can't unless you want.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: You wanted you onload?
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: What was the one you told me? Yeah, there's something
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: about someone. I can't even remember it now. Obviously not
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: meant for he'll tell somebody there's a sensitive bit of
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: information about a celebrity which I was not allowed to
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: tell you. I haven't no one, no one anyway. So
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: I'm talking to this guy yesterday, okay, and I'm when
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: when in light band mode, you think, Okay, what's the
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: connection I can make with this gentleman? And I'm like, oh,
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: I heard a story about him, sensitive business information, not
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: like scandalous personal stuff.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And I.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: Was like, hey, I heard blah blah blah and blah
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: blah blah. And then there's I'm halfway through this. I
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: can see a look in this man's eye of like,
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: how does he know this information?
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: It was kind of almost like an announcement, a thing
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: that could happen, And he someson, John O knowes someone
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: obviously said slips at you, but for why? But why
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: should you know this? People want to say stuff too.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: What if you overheard a zoober rounds or something and.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: Then he volley's backward? Where did you hear that from?
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: And that's not the first thing you want to hear about.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: When you say, I'm like, I'm just trying to start
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: a conversation here and then I was like, oh, I
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: can't remember where I heard that from. I can remember,
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: I know where I heard it from, but I'm not
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: going to say where I heard it from.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: And then so we he did tell he did the
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: thing on the nose, you know, when you tap your
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: finger on the nose. He's like, it's happening, buddy, but
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: let's not say any more about it. So he swore
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: me to secrecy. I'm sure the first problem person probably
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: swore me to secrecy too.
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: I didn't think that you were going to go straight
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: to the person and the deep.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: My lottle lips tell you what they have sunk some
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: shiite back on the Titanic back in the day. Went
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: to the captain. I was like, had that got Leo
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: down there? He's telling me about climate change? Apparently there's
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: no icebergs keep plowing on.
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: The heads that John and Ben podcast.
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: I wanted to know if this was something particularly probably
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: Ben would do. It's something that me and my husband
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: started doing every single day, and then we've named it now,
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: so we often end up being like ships in the night.
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: So he finishes work at three thirty, and then every
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: day at three thirty he calls me as he drives
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: to the gym, and we do what we now call
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: our info dump.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, so because.
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: Then when he comes home from the gym tonight, I'm
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: leaving again to go to a function. So we don't
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: like see each other a lot.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: So it's a five powerful, five minute phone call of it.
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: Fifteen fifteen okay, right right. You start the info dump
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: with what you've got today. This is the key points
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: that happen. These are things I've got coming up, like
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: and then he will go write my turn. He dumps
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: what he did for the day, and then what he
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: needs to tell me in terms of information with the
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: kids or anything, and then he's unfinished my infidump.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: Good, sounds like an executive meeting.
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: And you don't bog up like say, if you get
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: free time later once the kids for us, once the
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: kids are gone to bed, and you get like an
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: hour before I have to go to sleep, it's not
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: bogged down with your info dump.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know you wouldn't info dump. You never spreadsheet.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: To be honest, I'm embarrassing to say it. I have
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: a little whiteboard because i'd like say I don't see
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: my wife, I can't call her during the day because
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: she works at school, she can't take phone calls, and
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: there's so many things throughout the day. I'm like, I
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: need to talk to you about this. I need to
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: talk to you about this because I can't just go
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: yeah yeah. It's all these decisions that could be wrong
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: from my so yeah, be wrong. End of the day,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, I just need ten minutes just to
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: go just ten minutes and just go through this list
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: on this whiteboard and just go hey, yeah, without calling
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: it the info done.
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: I love it.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: Usually it's me just coming with the list. I think
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: she's well capable, but.
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: You know, write it down in preparation.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but I do. Yeah, that's it with a little whiteboard.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: Because I don't usually talk to her all like once
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: a day, I'm like, all right, here we go. This
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: is as well.
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: That's quite sad when you break it down like that day, Like,
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: I don't usually talk to.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Her because I can't. I can't.
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: She's working ships in the night sometimes.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: Marriage you just talk about administration.
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: Do you do it invo dunk?
• 11:08
  Speaker 5: No?
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: I do like to dumb information about AI on people
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: like you do.
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: Your info dumb on stranger.
• 11:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: Throughout the day I was watching the stock on aio
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: be worried, knows some stuff. But yeah, I know that's
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's a lovely thing you do, isn't it?
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: No other time you can do it?
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: And it's the same time every single day. I get
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: a phone call three thirty once he finishes.
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: All right, here we go.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: John Aikin, who's the you know, married at first sight,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: the expert with relationships. No, he would always talk about
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: he does with his wife. He'd have a glass of
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: wine every night and that's when they would kind of
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: connect to talk about stuff. But it's pretty hard to
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: try that out the car. But it's probably not gonna work.
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: As he goes to the gym, yeah's probably not gonna work.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: Don't have more than four or five glasses. Things start
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: getting a bit finger point.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: There's more on my lesson the heads.
• 12:01
  Speaker 5: That johnaan Ben podcast.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: Is TikTok going around. It's left a lot of key.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: We stunned it's in America. As someone talking about how
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: much annual leave they have to people on the street.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: Here in New Zealand, everyone, as we know we're hitting
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: into the holidays, people get like four weeks annual leave.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: As sort of the standard plus twelve public holidays throughout
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: the year. Well, in America there's no law around holidays
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: and it's up to the employer as well. And so
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: one person was saying fifteen days was what they had,
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: and they were saying that that's the most they've heard
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: of in their business. Other people got zero zero.
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: They work hard over there.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: A single day of annual leave to them and their
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: whole contract was yeah, credible.
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: So what happens if they need or they want to
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: go on holiday?
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: I just it without pay.
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, which is We spoke to a guy I'd never
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: had a day off, guy used to talk to every week,
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: just like we're just worked through. It's just the culture
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: over there. We've got it bloody good here.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, when you look at that four weeks plus twelve
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: days at public holidays as well, when they're not even
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: getting we're very lucky to get for ten days, that's
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: the most.
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: And then shut down over Christmas, and then we sat
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: moaning about the gap between Easter and label.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: I know, come on, New Zellens. We true.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yesterday and I appreciated this. There I was I
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: was running late for an appointment for a meeting and
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: I message the person. I said, sorry, mate, I'm ten
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: minutes late. It's the standard one. Ten minutes buys you
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: twenty Everyone knows that. Everyone knows it.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: The problem was the person I was meeting also new
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: to theone at the building. They're like, oh, it's funny
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: because I was just off the phone to someone who
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: you work was, and they said, you just left the building. Now,
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: by my insturbation, I've just looked at Google Maps, see
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: you're twenty three minutes away from here. So got called out.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: Oh because the ten minute one. Listen, we all know
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: ten minutes. When someone says I'm running ten late, everyone knows,
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: and that social transaction, nothing's to be true. It's twenty
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: twenty five minutes, and it's always been.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: It's like a five minute late. It's never five.
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: Minutes, right, My minutes is ten minutes.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: Just buck at the car five, but it's just two
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: minutes away five ten twenty.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: Two bys of five. I reckon at least yeah, two minutes.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: I said that in my daughter the other day. I
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: was like, just text us the two minutes away. She's like, well,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: we're not, like.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I know, it sounds better. It makes you
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: believe that you're not as late as you actually are.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: She's like, it'll be five minutes. I'm like, yeah, let's
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: just say two minutes.
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: Why can't you just say five minutes. I don't know.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: It just was like, hey, two minutes work. We were close.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: We were close.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: I reckon. Even Blooming Jesus was like, hey, God, sorry,
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: running ten late to help me carry that cross up
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: the hill. I reckon. He was doing it back then
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: as well.
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: He probably had more of an excuse than you.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, So anyway, I did appreciate the Google Maps two
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: one set Nam's board into it as well. You can't
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: argue that.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: No, you're right.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: But then I was like, that was very late. Twenty
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: three minutes. It is very late for an appointment. So
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: this is what we want to open up. Is there
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: one great excuse? What's the best excuse you've heard for
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: someone being late.
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: I used to be an employer because I used to
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: have a cafe, so we had a lot of people
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: like always calling second the weekends, and my favorite was
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: after like they'd literally gone out the night before, they
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: had food poisoning the next day.
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's the reason why you're vomiting.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: Did you get a lot of food poisoning cases?
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: A lot of food people morning, What can you do?
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: You just have to be like, well, okay, either way
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: you're vomiting.
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: And you can't come in the John and Ben podcast.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: Johnson was in the country yesterday, the former British PM.
• 15:29
  Speaker 7: He was.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: I think he was actually in the building that we
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: work in. Yeah, there was some security around before apparently
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: that were talking about Boris Johnson coming in. I noticed
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: I was just reading before how a city spent his day.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: You're doing a bit of swimming and Mission Bay in Auckland,
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: which should have told him that swim there because the
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: pools contamidated water. But anyway, that's how he split his
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: day as well.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: And looking as disheveled as ever. I see, yeah, have
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: you seen here? It looks more rustled up his here
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: than when he was Prime Minister of Britain.
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: Is that gel like? Is that purposeful?
• 16:01
  Speaker 8: No?
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: I think he just wakes up and he's like that'll
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: do Yeah, they to go, Yeah, rustles it around ten
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: minutes late. I said, I was ed, tod. I got
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: called out for it. Someone looked on Google Maps like, no, no,
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: it's you're twenty three minutes late the travel time between
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: point A point B, and I thought that wonderful excuse,
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: just running ten late. Everyone knows they're gonna be a
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: bit later than ten. Everyone's accepted over the years.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: We used to work with Guy Williams for many years
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: and he would always name a particular street a busy road.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: He was like, just on this road, no matter where
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: it was far half far away. He was always say
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: the text would just cover through it. So guys, just
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: on the street, You're like, but that's nowhere near where
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: we are. Sometimes we're sometimes further away, but we've meant
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: to read it and then go, oh, he'll be twelve minutes.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: I guess that's a good way to go in transit. Yeah, yeah,
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: and moving. We've got a non joining us on the
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: phone right now, a non birth name, or you want
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: to remain anonymous, I'd rather than not saying my name,
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: just fair enough.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: The best excuse that you have used, or it's been
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: used on you? What what was it?
• 17:03
  Speaker 9: I used it? I went out on out and I

  Speaker 2: Sold out Magic show if you'd like to go along.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: Actually we've got a few tickets magic to four four
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: each seven.
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: Because I was just saying it would be nice if
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: we could have some Hits listeners, because I realized that
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: people going to his show are not necessarily going to
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: know what we're doing there.
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: No or kire, No one wants to see the opening.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: So he's going to bring us on at some stage
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: and amongst his amazing show, and he's taught us a trek.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: It's a card trek and involves a blindfold, a knife
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: and and us trying to get the card that someone
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: will select. Now, so far we have not nailed.
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: It, and it's been a week and a half. A
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: week keep saying hey, we must practice that, and then
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: we never get round to practicing it. But yesterday we're like, no, no,
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: we must practice it because we've had multiple failures, even
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: with the Prime Minister, Christopher Luxen, who was trying to
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: make us feel better about it. Afterwards he was like, oh,
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: it's okay, you got on the third go. So yesterday
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: we pulled in Maddie who works out in the Hits office,
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: and it's a three prong attack me and you started off,
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: don't you just quickly explain what you do?
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: So basically they pick a card from the deck that
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: I'm holding and they remember their card and shot to everyone.
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: And then I shuffle the cards and passed them to
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: John oh.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: Right, and then I then spread the cards around a disc.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: Ben's blindfolded the whole time. He removes his blindfold. I
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: had been a knife, and the knife full of the
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: magic powers that Costantino bestowed upon it.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: That knife, yesday was magic because it just felt like
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: it was drawn to one particular.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: Card and magic vegetable knife. And this is what happened.
• 20:59
  Speaker 12: Is this your card, Maddie Languy, Oh my god, I
• 21:11
  Speaker 12: wasn't sure it was your card.
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: Everyone's real good? Were you blown away? So blown away?
• 21:17
  Speaker 5: It was not exeedting.

• 23:15
  Speaker 14: I went to a hypnotist show and I got pulled
• 23:18
  Speaker 14: out of the crowd. There's eleven other people. We all
• 23:21
  Speaker 14: rode up and sat down in chairs. He did his
• 23:25
  Speaker 14: whole spell and started clicking his fingers and said sleep,
• 23:29
  Speaker 14: and everyone around me started, you know, dropping their heads
• 23:32
  Speaker 14: and falling asleep. So I was like, what's going on?
• 23:37
  Speaker 14: And I had to act it out? So yeah, I
• 23:41
  Speaker 14: pretended to be hypnotized.
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: And there's nice of you. You don't want to ruin
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: the illusion for the poor hypnotists.
• 23:46
  Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, exactly.
• 23:48
  Speaker 7: But these guys say what they were.
• 23:50
  Speaker 13: They were going around like chickens and dancing and you know,
• 23:54
  Speaker 13: we had to dance with each other and all sorts
• 23:57
  Speaker 13: of things. Ah, and I just had to act it
• 23:59
  Speaker 13: out until her half time. And yeah, at halftime he
• 24:04
  Speaker 13: comes over and he starts clicking his fingers and yeah.
• 24:08
  Speaker 14: He goes, okay, okay, well played good on you.
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, just left me sitting there, so he knew that
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: you were putting it on.
• 24:17
  Speaker 11: Yeah, he knew.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: Well, you're like, mate, I was.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: Trying to help you. I keep going back to me.
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: I didn't want to look like hypnotist.
• 24:26
  Speaker 7: It was very embarrassing.
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: Well, I know, and you would have been hyper aware
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: of having to act like everyone else was.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I was.
• 24:32
  Speaker 14: I was sort of sitting there with my head tilted,
• 24:34
  Speaker 14: looking sideways, trying to see what they were all doing.
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: Some people were just not hypnotizable though, right.
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: The hypnotis knows that, right any thing.
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: As you go, Hey, thanks mate, you did be your
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: bloody solid. Yeah, good one on your Dan. Appreciate your
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: time of a good one.
• 24:50
  Speaker 14: Cheers, have a good one.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: Nikki, good morning, good morning. You were dragged up on stage,
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: worst nightmare of stuff, or you actually enjoy that?
• 24:58
  Speaker 15: Actually it was quite revolting, to be honest.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: Oh really, then said this is a magician. So what happened?
• 25:02
  Speaker 15: Okay, So I literally got dragged up on stage and
• 25:06
  Speaker 15: pretty much came down dragged me up on stage, so
• 25:08
  Speaker 15: I had no idea what I was supposed to be doing.
• 25:11
  Speaker 15: And then he pulled out a hammer and a nail,
• 25:13
  Speaker 15: and so things got a bit icky from there, and
• 25:15
  Speaker 15: he proceeded to hammer this nail up his nose and
• 25:20
  Speaker 15: that was pretty gross actually at the time, and I
• 25:23
  Speaker 15: wasn't sure what I was supposed to be doing until
• 25:25
  Speaker 15: he indicated that I needed to remove this nail from
• 25:28
  Speaker 15: his nose. And I saw, all, that's no problem, I
• 25:31
  Speaker 15: can do that, but he said, no, no, not with
• 25:33
  Speaker 15: your hands, with your teeth, and he pointed to my teeth,
• 25:36
  Speaker 15: and so I stood there, closed and actually not knowing
• 25:40
  Speaker 15: what to do. And then the crowd starts chanting, so
• 25:42
  Speaker 15: you know, pressure, and so you know what I did
• 25:48
  Speaker 15: it I closed my eyes someone's nose with your mouth,
• 25:53
  Speaker 15: I know it was revolting. With my teeth, I tried
• 25:55
  Speaker 15: not to use my lips. I just got in there
• 25:57
  Speaker 15: with those pycisms yanked it out.
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: That's the problem when you're on stage, so you get
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: you know the show.
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, herery awkward.
• 26:06
  Speaker 15: I would have been very embarrassed. I would have sat

  Speaker 15: down and funds a shame. So you know, I did
• 26:10
  Speaker 15: my job.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's it feels like a one and done scenario.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: You've done that, ticked that off your bucket list.
• 26:14
  Speaker 15: Yeah, that was definitely up the top there.
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: Well, hopefully no nails and the nose on Saturday.
• 26:19

• 26:26
  Speaker 1: to learn a party party trek, and magician Costantino, who's
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: traveling the country right now, taught us a magic trek.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: Can catch him in New Plymouth tonight as he hits
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: to Auckland as well. He is incredible and he was
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: very kind to teach us a track. Our trek involves cards,
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: a blindfold, a knife, and to be fair, we haven't
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: narled it every time we've done it.
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: No have We've done it twice out of all the
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: times we've.
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: Hope we succeeded. You have succeeded twice.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: I think what's that wonderful song with Miley Cyrus, She's
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: wrecking ball. It's a good song.
• 26:58
  Speaker 5: Part of the.
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: Things I had about you climb. It's all about the journey,
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: It's all about what's she saying that?
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: Because he's kindly joining us once again, How you doing
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: this morning?
• 27:11
  Speaker 7: I'm good?
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: Thanks for having me, because I don't know if you
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: come out. It's a crime if you don't come out
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: to the song. Do you come out on stage of this?
• 27:22
  Speaker 7: Being I used to when I was twelve.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: I don't even followed our journey. We've been trying our
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: best to learn our trick. It's making us all very
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: nervous ahead of this weekend to perform at your show
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: in Auckland. How do we keep our nerves under wraps?
• 27:40
  Speaker 9: Oh?
• 27:41
  Speaker 7: Do you know what? Being nervous is part of the game.
• 27:43
  Speaker 7: I mean still I get nervous before I come out
• 27:44
  Speaker 7: in every show. And because you guys, you care about
• 27:47
  Speaker 7: doing a good job, so to be honest, you just
• 27:51
  Speaker 7: I don't just get used to It's same as being
• 27:53
  Speaker 7: on radio. You're probably are you nervously on radio?
• 27:55
  Speaker 13: No?
• 27:56
  Speaker 7: You to nervous?
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: Well, sometimes you do, I guess for some time a
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: guest coming and things like that. Yeah, you're probably right.
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: You learned to sort of work.
• 28:02
  Speaker 7: With it, work you work for it. Now did I
• 28:05
  Speaker 7: see something? Did you perform for the Prime Minister?
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: Ye?
• 28:08
  Speaker 5: Did?
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: We did the well, actually we've got the audio here,
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: just the end of it, because he was walking through
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: the building and we were like, oh, maybe well we'll
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: step things up and perform the track, Prime Minister. And
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: here was the end of it.
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: Is this your card, Prime Minister?
• 28:24
  Speaker 8: No, that's very good.
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: Well you got it on the third guy fifty, so
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: I mean that's not too bad.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: So you're not great getting it on the third goal.
• 28:45
  Speaker 7: Okay, okay. Was he good about it though?
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean nothing makes you feel worse as
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: a magician where someone's trying to console you if you
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: patronizing thumbs up. Yeah.
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: Also, he's seen you, so he was like, he's amazing.
• 28:59
  Speaker 7: He saw and was like, oh, but you know, it's
• 29:05
  Speaker 7: a lot harder than you actually. Like when you watch
• 29:06
  Speaker 7: a magician performer, or do you know even do a cartrick,
• 29:09
  Speaker 7: do you think very often it looks very it looks simple,
• 29:12
  Speaker 7: but there's a lot of mechanics and moves and psychology
• 29:16
  Speaker 7: involved to get it right. So there's a lot to remember.
• 29:18
  Speaker 7: So it's just practice, guy, it's more and more practice.
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: So how do you when you are nervous and then
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: you nail a trick?
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: Like, how do you? Because we got quite excited with ourselves.
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: We haven't really.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: Stopped made in the office. Yesterday we did it on
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: her and we actually succeeded. Have a quick lesson.
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: Is this your card? Madi languid? Yeah, but the energy
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: levels a bit, you know, happy there.
• 29:47
  Speaker 7: I love that though, because when you get it right,
• 29:49
  Speaker 7: what a great feeling it actually is. But the more
• 29:53
  Speaker 7: you do it unfortunately feeling kind but you're not inside
• 29:59
  Speaker 7: you feel very accomplished, so you think, you know, it's
• 30:02
  Speaker 7: pretty cool. It's a pretty cool feeling.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: Well, I tell you what magic.
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: The very small taste we've had of your job has
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: made us, we say it daily, so impressed by what
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: you do. Like over an hour or an hour and
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: a half long show, there's you say, so many working
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: parts and mechanics, and we're just struggling to split one
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: trick up into three.
• 30:25
  Speaker 7: It is, and look, there's a lot that gets involved,
• 30:28
  Speaker 7: as I said, but the more you do it, the
• 30:30
  Speaker 7: easier it gets. And and the more fun it actually
• 30:33
  Speaker 7: becomes because it doesn't become necessarily about actually doing the trick.
• 30:36
  Speaker 7: It becomes about the reaction from the other person. That's
• 30:38
  Speaker 7: a really beautiful things. When you go back, people laugh.
• 30:40
  Speaker 7: It's such a good thing, such a wonderful thing.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: Now on to important important things now costumes. We haven't got.
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: Costume sort of do we need to sort costumes?
• 30:50
  Speaker 8: Well?
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: Do you know?
• 30:51
  Speaker 7: I was thinking about that the other day, like what
• 30:53
  Speaker 7: we for your costious? But I think it needs to
• 30:55
  Speaker 7: be yourself, like who you are. And the last a.
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: Very underwhelming all I'm hearing from you is costumes, costumes, costumes,
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: more costumes.
• 31:08
  Speaker 7: You guys, do whatever you like. I don't want to
• 31:11
  Speaker 7: put you in a position where you feel like you
• 31:13
  Speaker 7: have to be like sincred and raw. Yeah, I mean
• 31:17
  Speaker 7: unless you guys, unless you guys all want to be
• 31:19
  Speaker 7: and and But it's up to you. Whatever you whatever
• 31:22
  Speaker 7: you feel, whatever you're feelings.
• 31:26
  Speaker 11: Oh yeah, do that?
• 31:27
  Speaker 5: Do that?
• 31:28
  Speaker 7: You can have David Blaine, Christane and who else can
• 31:32
  Speaker 7: we have? But we need a female magician as well.
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: So are there any female magicians?
• 31:37
  Speaker 7: There's actually a lot. There's a lot of female magicians
• 31:39
  Speaker 7: at the moment because they're very dexterous. They think that
• 31:43
  Speaker 7: much better with actually using the Yeah, there's actually a
• 31:47
  Speaker 7: lot coming out now, and that's because I think the
• 31:50
  Speaker 7: Internet has opened it up for young girls in the
• 31:53
  Speaker 7: beginning to get into magic and then of course grow
• 31:55
  Speaker 7: into two women and become female magicians.
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: Last question, when you were teaching us the track who
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: the Best.
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: That it's wait for Saturday. Saturday, Megan don will mesically disappear.

  Speaker 1: Yeah, like I was looking into it yesterday. There's a
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: lot of it's kind of max. Some people thinking it's
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: she's definitely like having fun with the interviewer. Other people
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: thinking that maybe she is a bit ignorant. She was poor,
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: she was very poor, grew up with poor family till

• 35:30
  Speaker 2: with electricity water they just magically appear.
• 35:33
