- 0:26Speaker 3: I had lots of swearing, as like full on swearing,
- 0:29Speaker 3: which is weird.
- 0:30Speaker 1: I definitely pushed a lot of commercials my way. I
- 0:32Speaker 1: feel like I'm a sucker for commercials. You probably on
- 0:35Speaker 1: those people there, I used to because I used to
- 0:37Speaker 1: write ads.
- 0:37Speaker 2: I probably watched commercial.
- 0:39Speaker 1: What's what's in the line to watch it?
- 0:41Speaker 2: So most people moving?
- 0:44Speaker 1: So yeah, so we get we get to take a
- 0:46Speaker 1: high risk. Not much reward for this today. But are
- 0:49Speaker 1: we still we both still in? We'll find out today
- 0:52Speaker 1: on the podcast, as well as our not review of
- 0:55Speaker 1: Wicked the movie.
- 0:56Speaker 2: We're not allowed to do that.
- 0:57Speaker 3: We saw it, but we're not allowed to say anything otherwise.
- 0:59Speaker 1: We'll be loked up in the Land of Oz with
- 1:01Speaker 1: some flying monkeys or something like that. So we don't
- 1:04Speaker 1: say too much about it, but we want to say
- 1:06Speaker 1: lots about it, but we can't. But that's all on
- 1:07Speaker 1: the podcast today and now Christmas. You were saying before,
- 1:10Speaker 1: what it's.
- 1:11Speaker 3: Not Mariah geez or is it Mariah hi? It's me
- 1:17Speaker 3: out of the game, as Mariah simply mean.
- 1:21Speaker 1: Now we're playing the Mariah Carey game with just over
- 1:23Speaker 1: thirty sleep still Christmas. You can play right now. You
- 1:27Speaker 1: can start even if you haven't started. All right, that's fine.
- 1:29Speaker 1: You can join in. Basically as soon as you hear
- 1:32Speaker 1: Mariah Carey's all I Want for Christmas on social media,
- 1:34Speaker 1: in a store, wherever you are, you're out of the game.
- 1:37Speaker 1: So hopefully you can avoid it for as long as possible.
- 1:39Speaker 3: Yeah, we're not trying to be grinches. We also love
- 1:41Speaker 3: the song. It's just the most iconic Christmas song that
- 1:44Speaker 3: we thought would be the hardest to avoid.
- 1:46Speaker 1: And Christmas the Farmer's Santa Parade this weekend too. It
- 1:49Speaker 1: feels like Sunday if you and I are still in
- 1:52Speaker 1: the game, but that's the day it's going to be over.
- 1:54Speaker 3: Have we got clarification on what our float song is. No,
- 1:57Speaker 3: not like its float plays one song the whole parade,
- 2:02Speaker 3: and it's always a Christmas song, but we don't know
- 2:04Speaker 3: what song it is.
- 2:05Speaker 1: Because if people are playing our game and we're going
- 2:07Speaker 1: along with hundreds of thousands of people, they're all out.
- 2:09Speaker 3: We're just getting give everyone out as we go along
- 2:12Speaker 3: the parade.
- 2:12Speaker 2: Oh kind of mean from us?
- 2:13Speaker 1: Great great so today because the two of us are
- 2:16Speaker 1: in still before the show, we each came into the
- 2:20Speaker 1: studio by ourself with producer Ali and because who she's
- 2:23Speaker 1: out of the game to go one minute through social media,
- 2:26Speaker 1: just scrolling to find out if forget to Mariah Carey.
- 2:29Speaker 1: Now you're going to play back, you'll one minute now
- 2:31Speaker 1: if you if we do hear Mariah Carey, what happens.
- 2:34Speaker 3: If Mariah Carey plays in this one minute scrolling it
- 2:37Speaker 3: has been beeped out. Okay, so only I will be
- 2:40Speaker 3: out and you will be safe if you're listening.
- 2:43Speaker 1: Okay, So so I don't even know how it went.
- 2:46Speaker 1: This is you megan with producer Ali before the show.
- 2:49Speaker 1: One minute on TikTok, scrolling through to see if you
- 2:52Speaker 1: it's high risk, high risk, you could be out of
- 2:54Speaker 1: the game after this.
- 2:56Speaker 3: So Ben has left the studio. I've got producer Ali
- 2:59Speaker 3: in here, is well adjudicated to make sure I don't cheat.

- 3:10Speaker 3: a dance, a weird dance.
- 3:14Speaker 4: This is what I mean.

- 3:44Speaker 3: You came rock dance. Okay, yep, we're fine. How long
- 3:51Speaker 3: have we got through one way? Like confronting when you
- 3:57Speaker 3: go through your algorithms, well.
- 4:00Speaker 1: Done, you're still in the game. No, Mariah carey all
- 4:04Speaker 1: I want for Christmas popping up? No Christmas on your
- 4:07Speaker 1: algorithm although three swear words, apparently.
- 4:09Speaker 2: We're to get it out. That's produce. Ellie's telling me.
- 4:11Speaker 3: Three very full on sweirwards. I don't know what it's algithm,
- 4:16Speaker 3: but no Christmas at all.
- 4:18Speaker 6: The heads the jonaan Ben podcast.
- 4:21Speaker 1: A song that we're not playing at the moments, along
- 4:23Speaker 1: with Chapel rowe anyway, Mariah Carey's all I want for Christmas,
- 4:28Speaker 1: because this versio a lot for Christmas. And unfortunately that's
- 4:33Speaker 1: all you're going to hear at the moment because we're
- 4:35Speaker 1: playing a game.
- 4:36Speaker 2: As before.
- 4:37Speaker 1: Oh god, it's so bad, it's so bad.
- 4:40Speaker 3: I love it.
- 4:40Speaker 2: It's so bad. I'm terrible, But we are.
- 4:43Speaker 1: We trying to play a game where we sing how
- 4:45Speaker 1: long we can go without hearing Mariah Carey's all I
- 4:47Speaker 1: want for Christmas? As I said before, social media, shops, stores, gyms,
- 4:52Speaker 1: if you hear it anywhere, you're out of the game
- 4:54Speaker 1: and you can join along, you can play.
- 4:55Speaker 3: Yeah, And Christmas parades are starting. We've got the Farmer's
- 4:58Speaker 3: Sanda Parade. We are on a flow. This weekend's been
- 5:02Speaker 3: like I feel like we're definitely gonna hear it.
- 5:05Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 5:06Speaker 1: If you and I are not out by the weekend,
- 5:08Speaker 1: it feels like Sunday we're going to be out. But
- 5:10Speaker 1: earlier in the show, we did something pretty risky. Before
- 5:12Speaker 1: the show, we each beent a minute by ourselves with
- 5:15Speaker 1: producer Ali in the studio, scrolling through social.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Media on TikTok.
- 5:19Speaker 1: Now that's where most people have kind of fallen victim
- 5:21Speaker 1: from the game.
- 5:22Speaker 3: Now, heads up, mine. I went for a minute and
- 5:25Speaker 3: I haven't heard it. I'm not out of the game.
- 5:28Speaker 3: So I managed to scroll through TikTok for a minute
- 5:30Speaker 3: and not hear it.
- 5:31Speaker 1: I had to do the same thing after you. Now
- 5:34Speaker 1: we're not if I do hear Mariah Carey in this
- 5:36Speaker 1: one minute, We're going to beep it out so you
- 5:38Speaker 1: don't hear it. You won't be out of the game.
- 5:40Speaker 1: But here's me scrolling through social media for a minute. Okay,
- 5:43Speaker 1: I'm nervous. One minute, TikTok. Time starts now here we
- 5:46Speaker 1: go TikTok. Okay, she sprang perfume in the air. That's
- 5:50Speaker 1: not Mariah Carey's Jason remark.
- 5:54Speaker 2: Okay, I can I watch that.
- 5:57Speaker 3: I'm all about eighty twenty so I love having a
- 5:59Speaker 3: sweet tree tonight.
- 6:02Speaker 2: Okay, you're moving on, Chris Martin.
- 6:04Speaker 1: I'm getting a lot of cold play in my feet,
- 6:07Speaker 1: of course, a lot of cold play here again.
- 6:09Speaker 4: Good just making my way.
- 6:14Speaker 2: It's see you talking to podcast.
- 6:17Speaker 3: Okay, here are three reasons why.
- 6:20Speaker 1: Adverversal and so far I'm going to join the heads
- 6:24Speaker 1: Stan Walker doing a singing challenge. Okay, suspect has no neck,
- 6:29Speaker 1: and there's a.
- 6:29Speaker 2: Lot of suspect things as well.
- 6:30Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, class x uh William wido Oh yeah, okay,
- 6:35Speaker 1: carry on, no leaving head.
- 6:38Speaker 2: It's like that, you wouldn't steal a car. You wouldn't
- 6:40Speaker 2: steal a Yeah, I did it. They've got that old music.
- 6:42Speaker 3: Kendall's not here because.
- 6:45Speaker 2: I've done it. Oh my goodness, he's done us. Yeah
- 6:51Speaker 2: what a weird algorithm. But anyway, I've done it.
- 6:54Speaker 1: I got one D three in the personal cared bre
- 6:59Speaker 1: no leaving get three airs in one minute. Yeah, a
- 7:04Speaker 1: lot the world ride too, because you're just like anyway,
- 7:08Speaker 1: So we're still in the gate.
- 7:10Speaker 3: No Christmas content for you? What's are we?
- 7:12Speaker 1: No, hasn't he feared with me and my algorithm right now?
- 7:15Speaker 1: So yeah, so if you're still in the game, we'd
- 7:17Speaker 1: love to hear from your four four eight seven or
- 7:18Speaker 1: oh dred the hats. Are you still in or you're
- 7:20Speaker 1: still out? And when everyone is out of the game,
- 7:23Speaker 1: then we can start playing. Mariah carries all I want
- 7:25Speaker 1: for Christmas, and there's.
- 7:26Speaker 3: No I don't want otherwise we have to deal with this.
- 7:30Speaker 2: I know, no one.
- 7:32Speaker 3: I kind of like.
- 7:36Speaker 1: The backing singers that we've gone on that track. No
- 7:38Speaker 1: one's working harder.
- 7:39Speaker 6: Than them, the hits that jonaan Ben podcast.
- 7:42Speaker 1: Another story was reading It feels like an only in
- 7:45Speaker 1: America situation. A guy and a bike got hit by
- 7:49Speaker 1: an ambulance. Oh God, and then they'd take him to
- 7:52Speaker 1: hospital in the ambulance that hit him, and then he
- 7:55Speaker 1: got charged for the ambulance ride. You know we need
- 7:58Speaker 1: charge for ambulance in New Zealand is the one that
- 8:04Speaker 1: you can waive this Actually, on this occasion it was
- 8:07Speaker 1: our fault that you're in the I get it. They
- 8:09Speaker 1: normally you have to pay for it, but on this occasion.
- 8:11Speaker 3: There's someone else in the ambulance. Slave, do you have
- 8:13Speaker 3: to cuddle up on the gurney else?
- 8:15Speaker 2: Maybe that's sweat. They're going around looking for work.
- 8:17Speaker 1: They're like, slow, day, I can hit this guy and
- 8:20Speaker 1: then yeah, so he's all right now apart from the
- 8:22Speaker 1: fact that he's got to pay a large bell from
- 8:25Speaker 1: an ambulance that he was fine before the ambulance came along.
- 8:28Speaker 1: Now we're doing the Mariah Carey Christmas Game. It's a really,
- 8:31Speaker 1: really fun game to play, and it's amazing how many
- 8:33Speaker 1: people playing along with us.
- 8:35Speaker 3: Yeah, it's one basically Mariah Carey's iconic song All I
- 8:38Speaker 3: Want for Christmas is you. You've got to try and
- 8:40Speaker 3: avoid it. That means you're still in the game. As
- 8:42Speaker 3: soon as you hear it, you're out. Now. It has
- 8:45Speaker 3: to be Mariah's recorded version, but it's playing on TikTok,
- 8:48Speaker 3: it's playing in supermarkets. It's hard to avoid.
- 8:51Speaker 2: This is Mariah's time of year, right, this is where
- 8:54Speaker 2: she's stored.
- 8:54Speaker 3: She pops out, she's making her money.
- 8:57Speaker 1: And you don't know where to expect it, you know,
- 8:59Speaker 1: you go every time I go, like to a shop
- 9:01Speaker 1: or a mall, I'm like, this is it. There's nothing
- 9:03Speaker 1: you can do about it. Well, and but the other
- 9:04Speaker 1: day and christ Chitch, weren't we and I was like,
- 9:07Speaker 1: it's going to happen. It's going to happen, and we're going.
- 9:09Speaker 3: To be on a very a station that would play Mariahkiri.
- 9:12Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but fortunately we're both in the game.
- 9:16Speaker 2: Or am I that's my version?
- 9:21Speaker 7: All right?
- 9:21Speaker 2: I shall we go to the phones and find out
- 9:22Speaker 2: people are still in there?
- 9:23Speaker 1: Still out?
- 9:24Speaker 6: All right?
- 9:24Speaker 3: Good morning, Jackie. Are you still in the game.
- 9:28Speaker 8: I'm still in still in the game.
- 9:31Speaker 1: Have you had any places you've been to you thought, well,
- 9:33Speaker 1: maybe this could.
- 9:34Speaker 9: Be it.
- 9:36Speaker 7: Just trying to avoid the more.
- 9:37Speaker 8: It's amazing how much money you say when you don't.
- 9:41Speaker 3: But I always think you could just go there and
- 9:43Speaker 3: put headphones on. And do you look obnoxious if you're
- 9:46Speaker 3: walking through a mall with headphones on listening to your
- 9:48Speaker 3: own music?
- 9:49Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 9:51Speaker 1: Yeah, big, sort of like ear muffs that you'd use
- 9:53Speaker 1: for lawnmo maybe, but we but you could do it
- 9:56Speaker 1: each of their own. Let us know when you're out,
- 10:00Speaker 1: but hopefully it'll last longer than us.
- 10:02Speaker 3: Thanks Jackie, all right, good luck Jackie and Kylie. Are
- 10:06Speaker 3: you still in the game.
- 10:08Speaker 10: Yes, I'm very much still in the game.
- 10:10Speaker 1: Have you had a.
- 10:11Speaker 3: Hearing moment where you've been somewhere and you're like.
- 10:13Speaker 10: Oh, well, yeah, I don't. I don't frequent the malls,
- 10:21Speaker 10: and if I had to go in there, I would
- 10:23Speaker 10: be moving pretty quickly. And then as far as the supermarket,
- 10:28Speaker 10: I'm a big cautious about the supermarket. But it's mainly
- 10:32Speaker 10: around social media, so you know, I looked at Instagram
- 10:37Speaker 10: and things like that and heard that a lot of
- 10:39Speaker 10: people had dropped out via instance, so I just literally
- 10:42Speaker 10: look at friends stories and don't scroll.
- 10:45Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, and sound off is a good thing, you know.
- 10:48Speaker 1: Although John I clicked on one, he watched it is
- 10:51Speaker 1: like this will be fine. Clicked on one it had
- 10:52Speaker 1: Mariah Bam out of nowhere.
- 10:54Speaker 3: But it tells you down the bottom of a lot
- 10:55Speaker 3: of these things. What soundtrack is playing. It does right
- 10:58Speaker 3: on you and check what the soundtrack good. It could
- 11:01Speaker 3: be good. It could be giving people like a bit
- 11:03Speaker 3: of space, a bit of time off social media.
- 11:05Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 11:05Speaker 2: True, Actually mean you're right, well, let us know when
- 11:08Speaker 2: you're out.
- 11:08Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, totally coming through. I'm out of the game
- 11:12Speaker 1: because apparently and apparently you know and inverted commerce because
- 11:17Speaker 1: it was playing in the shop that was then with
- 11:19Speaker 1: my daughter. I never heard it, but she told me
- 11:21Speaker 1: I'm out. I feel like you could stay in the
- 11:23Speaker 1: game the potentially if you didn't hear it.
- 11:25Speaker 3: So it's playing, but you didn't.
- 11:27Speaker 2: Look like you're out. Afterwards, know that.
- 11:31Speaker 3: You're out played more. You were there just because you
- 11:34Speaker 3: didn't notice talk and you're like, I didn't notice that happened.
- 11:39Speaker 1: Okay, Well, Megan saying you're out, I'm saying you're stone
- 11:42Speaker 1: but holes, but you didn't.
- 11:46Speaker 2: And you played it to you in your sleep, would
- 11:48Speaker 2: you be.
- 11:49Speaker 1: Out you work out the next morning?
- 11:53Speaker 2: What I played?
- 11:54Speaker 3: Because I was asleep, I didn't hear.
- 11:56Speaker 2: That's okay.
- 11:56Speaker 6: You the heads that John and Ben podcast sometimes.
- 12:00Speaker 3: Bit treat well most of the time. Her bitteres kind
- 12:02Speaker 3: of read like loved mum and sister to blah blah blah.
- 12:06Speaker 3: And it's pretty stale. Right.
- 12:08Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not saying they weren't loved, no, but they all.
- 12:11Speaker 3: Kind of read the same loved and devoted, loving and devoted, yeah,
- 12:15Speaker 3: blah blah blah. But two guys in Australia took it
- 12:19Speaker 3: upon themselves to write it's something different for their mum, sadly,
- 12:23Speaker 3: Jenny Kelly, she passed away on the twenty eighth of October,
- 12:26Speaker 3: and they wrote into their local newspaper. This has since
- 12:29Speaker 3: gone viral. Wild and Wayward mother died on the twenty
- 12:33Speaker 3: eighth of October. She refused to say past. We spend
- 12:36Speaker 3: most of our lives compensating for our upbringing, said Jenny.
- 12:39Speaker 3: She believed that exposing youth to religion was a form
- 12:42Speaker 3: of child abuse. It was impossible to watch the news
- 12:45Speaker 3: in her presence due to her vocal outrage at the
- 12:47Speaker 3: way the country has run. She held John Howard in
- 12:50Speaker 3: particular contempt. Sounds like, yeah, mum grew dope, never wanted
- 12:56Speaker 3: to leave a party and gave up champagne or jin
- 12:59Speaker 3: frequently but never simultaneously. Sounds like my kind of girl
- 13:02Speaker 3: who at teams at responsible parenting or grandparenting were always touching.
- 13:08Speaker 3: She said Sean was a much better driver than Chris
- 13:10Speaker 3: News on What's next to follow Bring a shovel.
- 13:16Speaker 2: That's really cool.
- 13:17Speaker 3: We know more about Ginny from reading that.
- 13:21Speaker 2: My personality.
- 13:22Speaker 1: I remember actually my grandma, who was, you know, like
- 13:25Speaker 1: a really funny lady. She was was my granddad's funeral
- 13:28Speaker 1: and I was standing next to her and she even
- 13:30Speaker 1: found like a laugh and this horrible day, you know,
- 13:33Speaker 1: and someone came over and was like, Olena was wonderful.
- 13:36Speaker 1: He was so down to earth. And this is just
- 13:37Speaker 1: after we buried him. And she realized she was like, well,
- 13:39Speaker 1: he's literally down to earth now. I was like, oh
- 13:42Speaker 1: my god, you just make a joke to a husband's funeral.
- 13:46Speaker 6: But yeah, the Jonan Ben podcast.
- 13:50Speaker 3: I know this is gonna seem stupid to some people.
- 13:53Speaker 3: I know, but I don't do a lot of things
- 13:56Speaker 3: by myself, especially after I've had kids, so I'm usually
- 13:58Speaker 3: always with my kids. I'm here with you guys. There's
- 14:01Speaker 3: not a lot of time for me to do things
- 14:03Speaker 3: by myself these days. But I've never really been a
- 14:06Speaker 3: hugely solo person. Yeah, and I also wear make every
- 14:12Speaker 3: single day. So when we were in christ Church.
- 14:15Speaker 1: I was on us where I was like, you fix
- 14:17Speaker 1: yourself up a little where. You know, John's always saying cameras.
- 14:20Speaker 3: Everywhere in this bunny job. Now you think you'd be
- 14:22Speaker 3: safe and radio, but not anymore.
- 14:23Speaker 1: What's the thing When you first start doing radio, everyone's like, oh,
- 14:26Speaker 1: you can do it. Have to work and your pajamas
- 14:28Speaker 1: in track beds. Not that we would do, but this
- 14:29Speaker 1: is like cameras film you the whole time. Yeah, photos
- 14:32Speaker 1: you take, but you look terrible.
- 14:35Speaker 3: Yeah. So it was about eight o'clock at night and
- 14:38Speaker 3: I was like, do you know what? I was ready
- 14:40Speaker 3: for bid. I was at my pajamas all reading.
- 14:42Speaker 1: You're like, I'm going to go back to We'll go
- 14:44Speaker 1: back to our rooms. You're like, I'm going to have
- 14:45Speaker 1: an early night, my away from the family. I'm going
- 14:47Speaker 1: to have a bit a big week. You've been at
- 14:49Speaker 1: cold Play, You're like going to have an early night.
- 14:51Speaker 3: Yeah. And then I realized we were staying really close
- 14:54Speaker 3: to a really famous gelato place in christ Church, which
- 14:57Speaker 3: you'll know if you live in Christchurch, Rollic and Gelato.
- 15:00Speaker 3: So I was like, I really want one, but I'm
- 15:02Speaker 3: not going to go and put a whole face and
- 15:03Speaker 3: makeup on.
- 15:04Speaker 2: To get a sweet treat.
- 15:05Speaker 3: And do you know, I've never gone and got an
- 15:07Speaker 3: ice cream or like a treat, even by myself. It's
- 15:11Speaker 3: always been like a social thing. So I was like,
- 15:14Speaker 3: I got in my head about it. I was like,
- 15:16Speaker 3: I can't go and get an ice cream by myself.
- 15:17Speaker 1: Because we've talked about this before, Like I do like
- 15:20Speaker 1: to go now and again and go to a cafe
- 15:22Speaker 1: do some work by myself on the laptop of fine,
- 15:24Speaker 1: like I can get quite focused and do that and there.
- 15:26Speaker 1: I don't know when I'm how long I'm allowed to
- 15:29Speaker 1: stay in there all those things before I'm like, you
- 15:31Speaker 1: should really buy another hot drink, but you're like, I
- 15:33Speaker 1: have never really done that.
- 15:35Speaker 3: I did that once recently and I loved it. So
- 15:38Speaker 3: I was like, oh, come on, you can do this, girlfriend.
- 15:40Speaker 3: And then I went down the stairs, plucked up the carriage,
- 15:43Speaker 3: went to the door of the hotel and as I
- 15:46Speaker 3: went to go out, people walked past, and I snuck
- 15:49Speaker 3: back into the hotel and sat back down on the
- 15:51Speaker 3: couch and was like I had to pluck up the
- 15:53Speaker 3: carriage because I was walking outside with no makeup on
- 15:56Speaker 3: by myself to go and get an ice cream. And
- 15:58Speaker 3: it just like got the anxiety gone on top of me.
- 16:01Speaker 6: Well, yeah, and.
- 16:02Speaker 2: It's good you went through with that, which is awesome.
- 16:04Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 16:04Speaker 1: Are you worrying more about like running into someone to
- 16:06Speaker 1: talk to someone or just.
- 16:08Speaker 3: Like yeah, right, I was worried that I was going
- 16:10Speaker 3: to run into people to talk to them, and then
- 16:12Speaker 3: I was worried that when I got to the Jelata
- 16:14Speaker 3: shot there was going to be a heap of people there,
- 16:16Speaker 3: but neither happened. They got my ice cream and it
- 16:20Speaker 3: didn't feel to me. It felt a bit weird eating
- 16:22Speaker 3: and ice cream by myself because it feels like a
- 16:24Speaker 3: social event.
- 16:25Speaker 2: But I did it yourself.
- 16:30Speaker 3: There's gonna be people that are like cool man, but.
- 16:33Speaker 2: We wanted to know this morning. That was awesome that
- 16:35Speaker 2: you did that.
- 16:35Speaker 1: Like I saw that you put that on social media,
- 16:37Speaker 1: and I much like it was a big thing for
- 16:39Speaker 1: you to kind of.
- 16:39Speaker 3: Get out of A woman said the same thing. After
- 16:41Speaker 3: you've had children and stuff, you don't spend a lot
- 16:44Speaker 3: of time alone, so sometimes doing things by yourself can
- 16:46Speaker 3: be a little bit overwhelming.
- 16:48Speaker 1: Yeah, so we wanted to know this morning, like me again, like,
- 16:50Speaker 1: what's something that you do by yourself? Well, have done
- 16:53Speaker 1: by yourself? Like people that travel by themselves and say
- 16:57Speaker 1: the world, but that's impressive. People go to the movies
- 16:59Speaker 1: by themselves, concerts. Brinn who works on the Night Show
- 17:02Speaker 1: which is by itself the other day, Yeah, you know,
- 17:04Speaker 1: which is an incredible thing today.
- 17:06Speaker 3: Yeah, what are you doing by yourself that usually people
- 17:08Speaker 3: would probably do in a group all with other people.
- 17:11Speaker 1: I love to hear from you this morning.
- 17:13Speaker 6: The hits that JOHNA and Ben podcast fresh.
- 17:16Speaker 2: Off the back of Megan heating out alone.
- 17:18Speaker 1: You know they do those shows on TV, don't they
- 17:20Speaker 1: well alone where they're away for like two weeks in
- 17:23Speaker 1: the wilderness by themselves with nothing.
- 17:25Speaker 3: Oh, I mean I went to get ice cream by myself.
- 17:30Speaker 3: Talking about it on the radio, I feel ridiculous, but
- 17:32Speaker 3: in the moment I was quite anxious about going out
- 17:35Speaker 3: by myself.
- 17:36Speaker 1: Get and good only for doing it. I was actually
- 17:38Speaker 1: really proud and you did it. It was cool because
- 17:40Speaker 1: I know that you don't do those things that often. Yeah,
- 17:42Speaker 1: it was really cool that you did it.
- 17:44Speaker 2: Yeah, and we wanted to know Andrew. Hat's four for
- 17:46Speaker 2: it's even one of the things that you can do
- 17:48Speaker 2: or do.
- 17:49Speaker 1: What can you do by yourself?
- 17:53Speaker 2: A little bit?
- 17:54Speaker 3: But I'm with you. I'm with you, Kara, Good morning,
- 17:57Speaker 3: How are you this morning?
- 17:58Speaker 9: Good morning?
- 18:00Speaker 3: Now? What do you do by yourself?
- 18:04Speaker 11: Pretty much?
- 18:04Speaker 9: Everything?
- 18:06Speaker 3: So you think I so ridiculous, don't.
- 18:08Speaker 9: I mean, I'm single, I'm in my fifties. I live
- 18:16Speaker 9: by myself. I've just come back from a trip to
- 18:19Speaker 9: Iceland or by myself. Yeah, I quote often go to
- 18:25Speaker 9: the movies by myself. I'll go to restaurants by myself.
- 18:29Speaker 9: I just, I mean, that's too short to sit around
- 18:32Speaker 9: and wait for someone to go with.
- 18:34Speaker 3: I know, you're right, You're right, It's just it's hard
- 18:38Speaker 3: for me. I've always had someone holding my hand. Gara.
- 18:41Speaker 1: What's because I've done it a couple of times to
- 18:44Speaker 1: work by myself, and I actually find that you talk to.
- 18:46Speaker 2: A lot more people.
- 18:46Speaker 1: It really pushes you out of you know, like you
- 18:48Speaker 1: go up and talk to people, you kind of make
- 18:50Speaker 1: friends and things like that.
- 18:51Speaker 2: You chat. Do you find it slow that when you travel?
- 18:54Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 18:55Speaker 9: Absolutely. I mean Iceland was interesting because I was sort
- 18:58Speaker 9: of you know, I had a camper and I was
- 19:00Speaker 9: sort of buy myself in campgrounds, but you'd sort of
- 19:02Speaker 9: stay hi to the people next door and have a
- 19:05Speaker 9: chat to them. It was interesting. I don't feel like
- 19:08Speaker 9: I met a lot of Icelandic people. I spoke to
- 19:10Speaker 9: a lot of other tourists.
- 19:12Speaker 3: Yeah, I just keep bored with my own company. I
- 19:15Speaker 3: think you're obviously very just comfortable in your own company.
- 19:20Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, I mean.
- 19:21Speaker 9: I'm probably a bit of an introvert. So yeah, you know,
- 19:25Speaker 9: if I end up in social situations for too long,
- 19:28Speaker 9: I need to go home and decompress.
- 19:30Speaker 2: Yeah, for enough.
- 19:31Speaker 3: Oh you know what you're laing.
- 19:33Speaker 2: He oh, thank you very much for sharing that with us.
- 19:35Speaker 2: We appreciate it.
- 19:36Speaker 9: You're most welcome.
- 19:37Speaker 1: Someone went to cold Play on the tech stule stuff. Thanks.
- 19:41Speaker 1: Someone that's doing exactly just that cold Play Saturday night
- 19:44Speaker 1: in my late sixties by myself.
- 19:45Speaker 3: Leslie got on, Jennifer, what are you doing about yourself?
- 19:50Speaker 12: Okay, just like I'm the previous person, I just do
- 19:53Speaker 12: anything by myself. If there's nobody else around, then it's
- 19:57Speaker 12: able to come and do it or not interested to
- 19:59Speaker 12: do it. So yeah, I went to Coldplay by myself,
- 20:03Speaker 12: Kiddy Swims by myself.
- 20:06Speaker 13: I and my.
- 20:07Speaker 12: First time I really did anything by myself. I was
- 20:10Speaker 12: sister and it was kind of like my Iwi and
- 20:13Speaker 12: I bet packed around Australia for about Wow.
- 20:16Speaker 4: My, yeah, it's something I want.
- 20:20Speaker 7: To do with there is nobody else to come along.
- 20:22Speaker 7: It's just that doesn't stop me.
- 20:24Speaker 1: That's good, you know, because sometimes even you know, I
- 20:26Speaker 1: find that in relationships with friends, not everyone isn't do
- 20:29Speaker 1: the same thing, so sometimes you end up dragging someone
- 20:32Speaker 1: along as something that they don't really want to be anyway.
- 20:36Speaker 3: Everywhere.
- 20:37Speaker 2: So you're like, just do it by yourself and you're
- 20:38Speaker 2: gonna have fun by yourself.
- 20:41Speaker 13: Yep, exactly.
- 20:43Speaker 12: I know that you do tend to end up talking
- 20:47Speaker 12: to other people, whereas if you meet with somebody, you
- 20:50Speaker 12: might stick with your conversation with the people you've gone with.
- 20:54Speaker 12: But I've met amazing people on the trips and we're
- 20:58Speaker 12: not gone to the country where it's not the language there.
- 21:01Speaker 12: I know I will join a tour and I've met
- 21:05Speaker 12: amazing people that I'm still friendly with, still in touch with,
- 21:09Speaker 12: So then it's one of the advantages when you just
- 21:12Speaker 12: go off and do it by yourself.
- 21:15Speaker 3: Jennifer, do you know as she was saying that, though
- 21:17Speaker 3: like I literally have anxiety about talking to people.
- 21:20Speaker 9: I don't.
- 21:21Speaker 3: Oh no, it's not for me.
- 21:24Speaker 2: Maybe there was a small step going up with Gelato.
- 21:27Speaker 6: Yeah, myself, the Jhona and Ben podcast.
- 21:31Speaker 2: To know what you have done alone, there's some great
- 21:33Speaker 2: text and calls coming through.
- 21:35Speaker 3: Some people are doing like full on travel by themselves alone,
- 21:40Speaker 3: which just fills me with treat.
- 21:42Speaker 2: But it's awesome someone that travels in North and South America.
- 21:46Speaker 2: Someone went to crowded house by themselves. None of the
- 21:49Speaker 2: mates wanted to go, and the husband busy working.
- 21:51Speaker 4: So are we.
- 21:52Speaker 3: I went and got ice cream by myself, which I've
- 21:54Speaker 3: never done before. That sounds stupid, I know, to all
- 21:56Speaker 3: of these people, but I like to when I'm doing
- 21:58Speaker 3: something fun, I like to expect with someone. So even
- 22:01Speaker 3: going to Wicked last night, my husband couldn't come, but
- 22:03Speaker 3: he loves musical, so I was like, I wish I
- 22:06Speaker 3: could have experienced it with him, to see his face.
- 22:09Speaker 3: You know.
- 22:10Speaker 1: It's just but then if I guess if he's like,
- 22:12Speaker 1: I don't want to go, and then they shouldn't stop
- 22:14Speaker 1: you from wanting to go. True, you know, And that's
- 22:16Speaker 1: what I guess these amazing people are doing. They're just
- 22:18Speaker 1: going out and doing these things.
- 22:20Speaker 3: Yeah, Sam, good morning. What are you doing by yourself?
- 22:23Speaker 14: I traveled around Europe and lived in England. I moved
- 22:28Speaker 14: to England when I was twenty one for a couple
- 22:30Speaker 14: of years. But then I'm also on the other side
- 22:33Speaker 14: where I get where you're coming from. And I would
- 22:37Speaker 14: not go to the movies by myself because I think
- 22:40Speaker 14: that would just be like totally shame like self conscious
- 22:44Speaker 14: going by myself, and that filled.
- 22:47Speaker 8: Me with fears.
- 22:48Speaker 7: But I moved across the world and didn't know anyone
- 22:52Speaker 7: and so just made friends like that.
- 22:55Speaker 1: Movies is the time that I guess in some ways
- 22:56Speaker 1: you don't talk to anyone, so it does seem like.
- 22:59Speaker 3: The most social saying. But you're right, I've never done
- 23:02Speaker 3: a movie by myself for all of those reasons, Like
- 23:05Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 23:06Speaker 7: That fills me with fear of like people people knowing me,
- 23:09Speaker 7: even in like not even in my town, like just
- 23:11Speaker 7: in New Zealand. Yeah, but then I'd do anything overseas,
- 23:15Speaker 7: like I had my twenty second birthday in Rome.
- 23:17Speaker 3: Oh my god, amazing. Well it was great. You're still
- 23:21Speaker 3: more adventurous than I am. Sam, Thanks for you call Tagan.
- 23:25Speaker 3: What are you doing by yourself? Morning take in?
- 23:30Speaker 6: Oh?
- 23:30Speaker 11: Yeah, sorry, Hi?
- 23:32Speaker 3: What are you doing about yourself? On my own?
- 23:35Speaker 11: I have traveled to sixty two countries, I'm most of
- 23:38Speaker 11: them on my own, and so everything that I've done
- 23:41Speaker 11: while I've been traveling so countless, you know, boards and
- 23:44Speaker 11: adventures and gone to mitchell and Star restaurants, gone to movies,
- 23:48Speaker 11: gone to shows, all of my own arm and now
- 23:52Speaker 11: I'm currently apparenting a two year.
- 23:53Speaker 14: Old on my own.
- 23:55Speaker 2: Yeah wow, So sixty two countries by yourself.
- 23:59Speaker 1: Yeah well ah, so what like a times you felt
- 24:02Speaker 1: like you wanted someone with you or like, was just
- 24:05Speaker 1: the experience by yourself just incredible?
- 24:08Speaker 12: Yeah?
- 24:08Speaker 6: Not really.
- 24:08Speaker 11: I mean, like if you tell yourself like, oh, this
- 24:12Speaker 11: would be so much nicer with someone, then you'll feel
- 24:14Speaker 11: that way. Whereas if you look at what you're you
- 24:16Speaker 11: know you're looking at, and enjoy what you're enjoying and
- 24:19Speaker 11: appreciate it for what it is, it's actually sometimes better
- 24:22Speaker 11: when you're on your own because you can really be
- 24:25Speaker 11: in present in the moment and enjoy what it is
- 24:28Speaker 11: that's in front of you as opposed to have to
- 24:29Speaker 11: be thinking about someone else and engaged in conversation and
- 24:33Speaker 11: all that kind of stuff. So yeah, I actually really
- 24:36Speaker 11: really loved solid drivel.
- 24:37Speaker 3: And then I can take videos and stuff and put
- 24:39Speaker 3: it on social media area the way everyone can see
- 24:41Speaker 3: what I'm doing and be jealous, right, missing the point.
- 24:45Speaker 1: That's kind of it's a good point.
- 24:47Speaker 3: You can do that as well, shares what are you
- 24:49Speaker 3: doing on your own?
- 24:50Speaker 10: I do most things on my own, just from my job.
- 24:54Speaker 13: I'm always with people, talking with people and all.
- 24:56Speaker 7: That, and I just after I have to work days over,
- 25:01Speaker 7: I just want to.
- 25:02Speaker 11: Be online and just do nothing, don't talk.
- 25:05Speaker 8: Just be in my own space.
- 25:08Speaker 3: Yeah, I see that.
- 25:09Speaker 1: Well, some people like that, and it's nice to have
- 25:10Speaker 1: a balance. So I think a lot of people do.
- 25:12Speaker 1: Like there are alone time as well.
- 25:14Speaker 8: Ye yeah, no, it's amazing.
- 25:17Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 25:17Speaker 13: I can go anywhere and by myself.
- 25:19Speaker 8: It doesn't worry any whether I would with someone or
- 25:21Speaker 8: by myself.
- 25:23Speaker 3: Just seize about me.
- 25:24Speaker 2: Maybe we should put you on a kon tiki or something.
- 25:26Speaker 2: Me again, you know that.
- 25:27Speaker 3: Fills me with dream because I know not I have to.
- 25:29Speaker 1: I remember, it's the first the first day or so,
- 25:32Speaker 1: a couple of days. I say that the kids, if
- 25:33Speaker 1: you have then anxious about school, camp or something like that,
- 25:36Speaker 1: you're like the first day and then after that you
- 25:38Speaker 1: get through the first night normally and normally you're sweet.
- 25:40Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 25:44Speaker 3: Well, I mean, yeah, most of these people should have
- 25:45Speaker 3: inspired me to do something by myself. But I can
- 25:47Speaker 3: tell you it's not going to happen.
- 25:48Speaker 1: Well, let's do something. It's organized something. It's organized something
- 25:51Speaker 1: for you. What's something over the next couple of weeks.
- 25:54Speaker 3: The movies, I guess could be a good stepping stone.
- 25:56Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you go to the movies and go see
- 25:58Speaker 2: Working again. You want to see it again?
- 26:00Speaker 3: You do want to see it again?
- 26:01Speaker 1: Yes, you can have the night out.
- 26:02Speaker 2: While we organize that.
- 26:02Speaker 6: Megan can have the night out the heads that johnaan
- 26:05Speaker 6: Ben podcast.
- 26:07Speaker 1: Kind of i'ming an a ring whether I should talk
- 26:09Speaker 1: about this or not, because I don't want to say
- 26:11Speaker 1: something that looks like I'm I guess bragging in a way,
- 26:13Speaker 1: because this is not the intention of what the conversation is.
- 26:16Speaker 2: It's a humble break, well, a humble brag. I just
- 26:19Speaker 2: thought it was kind of like a story though, something
- 26:21Speaker 2: that happened to me in the weekend.
- 26:22Speaker 1: It's kind of really affected me, I guess, since I
- 26:24Speaker 1: had this conversation. So I went to the supermarket over
- 26:27Speaker 1: the weekend to my weekly shop as a normal do
- 26:30Speaker 1: it saw me me by myself, and I kind of
- 26:32Speaker 1: had a moment where I stopped because someone was hanging
- 26:35Speaker 1: around the alcohol section. You know, when you think something's
- 26:37Speaker 1: got about to go down. You're like, someone's acting a
- 26:39Speaker 1: bit strangely around the alcohol section. Looks like maybe they've
- 26:42Speaker 1: had a few drinks. Something's going on. They had casts
- 26:44Speaker 1: the wine of Like are they going to be stealing this?
- 26:46Speaker 2: What's going to happen? I was kind of just stopped
- 26:48Speaker 2: from afar, just going is there a situation about to unfold?
- 26:51Speaker 6: Yeah?
- 26:52Speaker 1: And as I was doing this, this lady sort of
- 26:54Speaker 1: came up to me and she's like, oh, hy you're
- 26:56Speaker 1: from John Oan Ben And I was like yeah, and
- 26:59Speaker 1: she was like, hey, I just wanted to say to you.
- 27:01Speaker 2: And I was like, oh, here we go.
- 27:02Speaker 1: You know, normally this is like not going to be
- 27:05Speaker 1: a good conversation. Yeah, she was like, I just want
- 27:08Speaker 1: to say how much your TV show meant in my life.
- 27:11Speaker 1: And this doesn't normally happen like you've been with me lots.
- 27:14Speaker 1: It's not what this happens on a day to day. Yeah,
- 27:17Speaker 1: normally people don't know which one I am which one
- 27:19Speaker 1: is not.
- 27:20Speaker 2: And I was like, oh wow, thank you.
- 27:23Speaker 1: And she was like, like a few years ago, she said,
- 27:25Speaker 1: my daughter got diagnosed with cancer. And she was like
- 27:29Speaker 1: she was in the thirties and it was a pretty
- 27:32Speaker 1: tough time, and she said that we would we would
- 27:35Speaker 1: sort of try it. We'd have a full on conversation
- 27:37Speaker 1: about you know, medical stuff and all that stuff, and
- 27:39Speaker 1: then we'd look for some relief and we'd google you guys,
- 27:42Speaker 1: we'd go on to YouTube and we'd watch your skits
- 27:44Speaker 1: and that would give us some sort of laugh and
- 27:46Speaker 1: I was like, I was kind of like, I don't
- 27:48Speaker 1: know what to say. I was just like, oh my god,
- 27:50Speaker 1: this is just this. Yeah, it was quite quite really
- 27:52Speaker 1: taught me back. And I was like, oh my god,
- 27:53Speaker 1: that's that's amazing.
- 27:54Speaker 2: Thank you so much.
- 27:55Speaker 1: And she's like, yeah, it just gave us, you know,
- 27:58Speaker 1: some light relief, gave us some laughs, but an escape.
- 28:00Speaker 2: And I just thought that she was like if I
- 28:02Speaker 2: ever saw one of you in real life.
- 28:04Speaker 1: Oh, I would come up to you and tell you that,
- 28:06Speaker 1: because I wanted to tell you that, and you'd have
- 28:08Speaker 1: no idea that this meant something to you, and and
- 28:11Speaker 1: I was like, I'm thank you for sharing that with me,
- 28:13Speaker 1: and I was kind of a bit stunned. I didn't
- 28:15Speaker 1: really know what to say because I'm not used to
- 28:16Speaker 1: compliments like that. And then I was like, I hope
- 28:19Speaker 1: you thought it was a right and she's like, well,
- 28:20Speaker 1: sadly she passed away. Oh god no, and I was like,
- 28:23Speaker 1: oh my god, that's but she was like, I just
- 28:25Speaker 1: wanted to say thank you, and I was like, I
- 28:27Speaker 1: was just like, I didn't know what what to say.
- 28:29Speaker 1: I kind of afterwards, I was like, did I come
- 28:31Speaker 1: across a bit strange in that situation?
- 28:33Speaker 3: Afterwards You're like I could have said.
- 28:34Speaker 2: This, Yeah, I can said that.
- 28:36Speaker 1: And at the same time, I'm looking behind her shoulder
- 28:38Speaker 1: and I'm like, this dude's definitely going to be playing
- 28:39Speaker 1: a castle whine other's top to steal in the supermarket.
- 28:43Speaker 1: It's something definitely kicking off over there as well. But
- 28:45Speaker 1: I just thought it was kind of a cool thing
- 28:47Speaker 1: that I was especially it was a really cool thing
- 28:49Speaker 1: that sat with me and means so much to me.
- 28:52Speaker 1: But also at the same time, it's a really cool
- 28:54Speaker 1: thing to share something with someone you know, like, because
- 28:56Speaker 1: sometimes you don't say things to people and you think, oh,
- 28:59Speaker 1: like for her, I hope that was really it was
- 29:02Speaker 1: nice for her to do that because it meant so
- 29:03Speaker 1: much to me, And sometimes you need to say these
- 29:05Speaker 1: things because later you're like, I should have said that
- 29:08Speaker 1: to that.
- 29:08Speaker 2: Person in day to day life.
- 29:09Speaker 1: I thought it was a good lesson to learn that
- 29:11Speaker 1: sometimes you don't show appreciation for people or tell them
- 29:14Speaker 1: how much they mean to you. Yeah, just because you
- 29:17Speaker 1: think I'll get back, I'll get round to that, and
- 29:19Speaker 1: you never do, and then sometimes they're not there anymore.
- 29:22Speaker 2: And it was really good.
- 29:23Speaker 3: Did it humanize all this stupid stuff you've done? It
- 29:28Speaker 3: at least you've made people laugh.
- 29:30Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's right.
- 29:31Speaker 1: I mean, as I say, it doesn't normally happen, and
- 29:34Speaker 1: there's a lot of stuff you're like, jeez, I'd take
- 29:35Speaker 1: those back and take those bad skits back at a second,
- 29:38Speaker 1: You're right, but the silly things we did had some
- 29:41Speaker 1: meaning behind that the first time ever, so I was like, oh,
- 29:44Speaker 1: it was lovely, so I really appreciate it. I didn't
- 29:45Speaker 1: even get the lady's name or anything like that, but
- 29:48Speaker 1: it meant so much to me. So thank you very
- 29:49Speaker 1: much for sharing that.
- 29:50Speaker 3: Thanks for sharing that.
- 29:52Speaker 2: That's really sad.
- 29:52Speaker 1: But I don't really want to feel like that was
- 29:54Speaker 1: a brand or anything like that. I just thought it
- 29:55Speaker 1: was a really good lesson. If you go about today
- 29:57Speaker 1: and you feel like you have an opportunity.
- 29:59Speaker 2: To say something to someone you always always thought of them,
- 30:02Speaker 2: maybe you could say it today.
- 30:03Speaker 3: Definitely.
- 30:03Speaker 6: Maybe The Hits that jonaan Ben podcast.
- 30:06Speaker 1: Has a brand new Wicked movie in cinemas well. It's
- 30:09Speaker 1: called Wicked. It's in cinemas this Thursday. We've got a prize,
- 30:12Speaker 1: amazing prize that you could be winning to the Gold
- 30:14Speaker 1: Coast after eight o'clock this morning. It's basically the story
- 30:18Speaker 1: of the Wizard of Oz before Dorothy.
- 30:20Speaker 3: Arrives, right, Yeah, the story of the Wicked Witch of
- 30:23Speaker 3: the West and how she became wicked.
- 30:25Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 30:25Speaker 1: Essentially, it's like a classic musical, one of the most
- 30:29Speaker 1: famous musicals. I was lucky enough to take my daughter
- 30:31Speaker 1: to it when we went to New York, just the
- 30:33Speaker 1: two of us, because she loves musical theater.
- 30:35Speaker 2: So we Wicked on Broadway.
- 30:37Speaker 1: We saw Yeah, and it was awesome. Guy next to
- 30:39Speaker 1: us slept the whole time, which was so weird. I
- 30:41Speaker 1: was like, man, this is incredible. We paid a lot
- 30:42Speaker 1: for these seats at the back and we couldn't take
- 30:45Speaker 1: the whole family, just two of us, and this guy
- 30:47Speaker 1: next to us in a great sleep but slept the
- 30:49Speaker 1: whole time.
- 30:50Speaker 3: So yeah, it's why I would have paid so much
- 30:55Speaker 3: money for this.
- 30:56Speaker 2: Clapped and then we're back to sleep and like, man,
- 30:57Speaker 2: what are you doing?
- 30:59Speaker 1: But yeah, So I don't know how much we're allowed
- 31:00Speaker 1: to say about the new movie because it's out on
- 31:02Speaker 1: Thursday and it's under strict embargo and rules and supper.
- 31:05Speaker 3: Even reviews, so us reviewing the movie is under strict
- 31:09Speaker 3: and bargo. Yeah, so can I say it was everything
- 31:13Speaker 3: I hoped it would be?
- 31:14Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, okay, I loved it.
- 31:16Speaker 4: I loved it.
- 31:16Speaker 1: I'm gonna say I loved it, and that's and that's
- 31:18Speaker 1: sort of that's just me just saying I loved it.
- 31:20Speaker 2: It was great, you know. So yeah, but I was
- 31:23Speaker 2: looking into the original. Now, the original Wizard of Oz,
- 31:25Speaker 2: made so many years ago, was Judy Garland yeah, just
- 31:29Speaker 2: the iconic movie.
- 31:30Speaker 1: It was a nightmare. Now here's some of the things
- 31:31Speaker 1: that happened on the set. Firstly, the snow. There's some
- 31:34Speaker 1: scenes where snow starts falling. It's quite beautiful. Asbestos. That
- 31:38Speaker 1: was asbestos. So these are some of the things.
- 31:41Speaker 2: Yeah, multiple people caught fire while filming Oh my god,
- 31:46Speaker 2: the Wicked Witch.
- 31:47Speaker 1: When there was fire going out, she was meant to
- 31:49Speaker 1: escape through a chap a trap door that didn't quite
- 31:52Speaker 1: open for her. It took six weeks for her to recover.
- 31:55Speaker 1: And then a stunt double also caught fire as well.
- 31:59Speaker 1: The original man was poisoned by his makeup and had
- 32:02Speaker 1: like aluminum in it. Yeah, oh my god. And so
- 32:06Speaker 1: he was he went the hospital and then the movie
- 32:08Speaker 1: company were like, mate, you need to come back.
- 32:10Speaker 2: He's like, I'm too sick. So they replaced him. They
- 32:13Speaker 2: got another man.
- 32:14Speaker 3: So not halfway through the movie.
- 32:15Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know if to go back
- 32:18Speaker 2: and watch this.
- 32:20Speaker 1: Literally I've been poisoned and they're like, no, can't, we
- 32:23Speaker 1: can't wait for you. Judy Garland, she was only like
- 32:27Speaker 1: fifteen sixteen at the time. Now, to give her a
- 32:29Speaker 1: bit more pip in the step, they kept giving me
- 32:31Speaker 1: a pit PILs. So basically it was like, you know,
- 32:34Speaker 1: to keep her rolling, to keep her upbeat. So I
- 32:38Speaker 1: don't know what exactly these pit PILs were.
- 32:40Speaker 3: I think I remember. Isn't that where her drug addiction
- 32:42Speaker 3: came from?
- 32:43Speaker 1: I think so because later unfortunately she had, yeah, some
- 32:46Speaker 1: problems as well. And the director at one stage because
- 32:48Speaker 1: Judy Garlan, who was Dorothy, she was laughing, she was giggling,
- 32:52Speaker 1: she couldn't complete the scene.
- 32:53Speaker 2: He just walked up and slapped her on set.
- 32:56Speaker 3: Okay, So when you're thinking that hr is going crazy
- 33:00Speaker 3: at your workplace, see got mad. There's a reason. Yeah, exactly,
- 33:05Speaker 3: Wizard of Oz was a nightmare.
- 33:07Speaker 2: We've got best.
- 33:08Speaker 1: You've got people catching fire, lead poising as well, drag
- 33:12Speaker 1: abuse and slapping of a young kid as well.
- 33:16Speaker 3: So thank you. Watch that the same again.
- 33:19Speaker 1: My theory is now after watching that, and I'm going
- 33:22Speaker 1: to say again, incredible. Obviously it's part one, a part
- 33:24Speaker 1: two that's well publicized.
- 33:26Speaker 2: Obviously wicked, wicked movie. Yet yeah, I reckon they'll redo
- 33:29Speaker 2: the original at the end.
- 33:30Speaker 1: It's like a trilogy.
- 33:32Speaker 3: I was going to say it here first and have
- 33:34Speaker 3: Jeff Goldblom as the wizards, Ariana.
- 33:36Speaker 1: You know as a characterist, you know, well, that's I
- 33:40Speaker 1: don't know who's going to get slapped by the director
- 33:42Speaker 1: who the hits.
- 33:44Speaker 6: That Jonaan Ben Podcast Megan.
- 33:47Speaker 2: Now someone has slid into your DMS.
- 33:49Speaker 1: It's been a while since the last time that we've
- 33:51Speaker 1: had someone slide into your DMS with a bit of
- 33:52Speaker 1: a conundrum.
- 33:53Speaker 3: If you have one, feel free to let us know
- 33:56Speaker 3: and we can help solve that. We do need your guidance.
- 33:58Speaker 3: If you have anything you want to tell this person
- 34:01Speaker 3: that's written, and feel free to give us a call
- 34:03Speaker 3: or a text. Fourth Weights, even this one reads dear Meghan,
- 34:07Speaker 3: John Oan Ben.
- 34:08Speaker 1: I'm in a like they say, John and Ben, but
- 34:10Speaker 1: I feel like, really it's dear.
- 34:11Speaker 3: Mean well you guys felt like an afterthought of that.
- 34:14Speaker 3: Dear Meghan.
- 34:15Speaker 2: Oh Jonathan, Yeah, I get it.
- 34:17Speaker 1: You're a lot better with these things then, and you
- 34:20Speaker 1: listening right now a lot better than me.
- 34:21Speaker 2: So yeah, carry on.
- 34:22Speaker 3: I'm in a bit of a pickle and need some guidance.
- 34:25Speaker 3: My best friend recently met someone online and they've been
- 34:29Speaker 3: completely smitten ever since.
- 34:31Speaker 2: Great, that's great, Yeah, that's great. Thanks, I feel like
- 34:33Speaker 2: there's more.
- 34:34Speaker 3: Yeah, the only problem. I'm pretty sure this guy is
- 34:37Speaker 3: a catfish. There's a few red flags. The person always
- 34:41Speaker 3: has an excuse for not meeting in real life, and
- 34:43Speaker 3: their photos look a bit too good to be true.
- 34:46Speaker 3: My friend is hit over heels. I don't want to
- 34:48Speaker 3: crush your happiness, but I also don't want her to
- 34:51Speaker 3: get hurt. Should I say something? Or do I let
- 34:53Speaker 3: this play out? I don't want to look like the
- 34:55Speaker 3: jealous friend, but I'm genuinely worried.
- 34:58Speaker 1: So are you thinking they haven't met?
- 35:02Speaker 3: It kind of sounds like they haven't met like the actual.
- 35:04Speaker 1: Person who's in the relationship potentially.
- 35:06Speaker 3: So the person always has an excuse for not meeting
- 35:08Speaker 3: in real life. And how long has that been though,
- 35:13Speaker 3: like a month or so?
- 35:14Speaker 1: You could forgive, right, yeah, And I can understand the
- 35:17Speaker 1: free not meeting that then you but but the actual
- 35:20Speaker 1: person who's smitten it does it's putting some red flags
- 35:23Speaker 1: up for me.
- 35:23Speaker 2: But but then do you bring it up or not?
- 35:26Speaker 1: Because at the same time, you're like, well, if they're happy,
- 35:29Speaker 1: they're good, it's great.
- 35:30Speaker 3: But then if you just want your friend to be happy,
- 35:32Speaker 3: and in this moment, she is.
- 35:34Speaker 6: But but.
- 35:37Speaker 3: I tend to think unless she's giving away money.
- 35:41Speaker 1: Yeah, that's good, Like, what could it hurt?
- 35:43Speaker 3: You know, let her maybe find out. I don't know.
- 35:47Speaker 1: Does that mean because there's someone listening right now, have
- 35:50Speaker 1: they been catfish before? Because I imagine afterwards that it's
- 35:53Speaker 1: probably like getting scammed, you know, like you probably a
- 35:56Speaker 1: bit of embarrassment and shit, And I mean it happened
- 35:59Speaker 1: to anyone, but you probably do feel a little bit
- 36:01Speaker 1: embarrassed by it.
- 36:02Speaker 3: But also in that moment, does the friend want to
- 36:06Speaker 3: hear that he's a catfish?
- 36:07Speaker 2: Probably not.
- 36:08Speaker 3: Is she going to believe her friend or is it
- 36:11Speaker 3: going to end in an argument?
- 36:12Speaker 6: Yeah?
- 36:13Speaker 1: Like do you drop on her hand, like, oh, do
- 36:14Speaker 1: you think it's weird that you haven't met? And then
- 36:17Speaker 1: she's like, no, you need to do it. Definitely, I
- 36:20Speaker 1: definitely think it's a little weird you haven't met. But anyway, Yeah, okay,
- 36:23Speaker 1: ND that's four for eight son. When are we trying
- 36:25Speaker 1: to help this person out with here? Yeah?
- 36:27Speaker 3: We Does she let it play out or does she
- 36:30Speaker 3: tell the friend what she thinks to try and protect
- 36:32Speaker 3: her she might be wrong? Yeah, there's the other thing.
- 36:35Speaker 1: Has this situation happened to you? Maybe you were the friend,
- 36:38Speaker 1: Maybe you were in a situation where you got cat
- 36:40Speaker 1: fish or maybe it was legit. We'd love to hear
- 36:43Speaker 1: from your help someone out this morning. We'll find some
- 36:45Speaker 1: prices as well heading into Christmas.
- 36:47Speaker 6: The Heads that jonaan Ben podcast.
- 36:50Speaker 1: Oh a dilemma that someone has written and slim to
- 36:54Speaker 1: your DMS. With this dilemma, like we always do a
- 36:56Speaker 1: big sigh, we're like, ah, what can we do?
- 36:59Speaker 3: So basically, the best friend has found someone online and
- 37:03Speaker 3: is completely smitten, but they are pretty sure their friend
- 37:06Speaker 3: has been catfish. A few red flags. The person always
- 37:09Speaker 3: has an excuse for not meeting in real life, and
- 37:12Speaker 3: their photos look a bit too good to be true.
- 37:15Speaker 3: But their head over heels. She doesn't want to crush
- 37:17Speaker 3: your happiness, she says, what do I do? Let it
- 37:19Speaker 3: play out? Or do I tell her it doesn't want
- 37:22Speaker 3: to be the jealous friend.
- 37:24Speaker 2: Yeah, So people worrying as we go.
- 37:26Speaker 1: The call of course first one hundred the hat's helpers
- 37:29Speaker 1: out here today because you know, like we can offer
- 37:31Speaker 1: back our opinion, but it's really good to put it
- 37:33Speaker 1: out wider.
- 37:34Speaker 3: Yeah, Quentin, what do you think should she tell her friend?
- 37:39Speaker 13: I think she should because to me, that's a scam.
- 37:41Speaker 2: It does feel that way.
- 37:44Speaker 13: Yeah, I've been in the same situation with me. I
- 37:48Speaker 13: lost a tiny bit of money out of it as well.
- 37:50Speaker 13: Trying to help the person before I saw the riding
- 37:54Speaker 13: on the walls of being red flags as them saying
- 37:59Speaker 13: that they they don't want to meet her or they
- 38:01Speaker 13: can't have an excuse for not meeting in person. Has
- 38:05Speaker 13: he tried asking like for phone calls?
- 38:08Speaker 2: God?
- 38:09Speaker 1: Yeah, so I don't want to pry too much into
- 38:11Speaker 1: your personal life, but it was the same sort of
- 38:13Speaker 1: situation where you didn't actually meet up for the person.
- 38:15Speaker 13: That they keeping it Yeah, they did the same same thing,
- 38:19Speaker 13: keeping it up. I even tried them up for like
- 38:22Speaker 13: a video. I always tad them, now, hey, I want
- 38:25Speaker 13: to prove that you are who you say you are
- 38:26Speaker 13: and you are legit your real listen to a video
- 38:29Speaker 13: video calling and to paint. If they don't want to
- 38:34Speaker 13: meet up, then they show these have the decency to
- 38:36Speaker 13: do a video call.
- 38:37Speaker 9: No, you're right.
- 38:38Speaker 3: Apart from the not meeting up, was there any other
- 38:40Speaker 3: red flags? Like I guess asking for money was a
- 38:42Speaker 3: big one for you.
- 38:43Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 38:43Speaker 13: Yeah, asking for money one is definitely a big one.
- 38:46Speaker 1: So so far, I guess this person hasn't been asked
- 38:48Speaker 1: for money for as far as we know, but it
- 38:50Speaker 1: feels like that could be the next step for this.
- 38:52Speaker 13: I say, with the photos, you know, like you said,
- 38:55Speaker 13: with the photos too good to be true? Yeah, I
- 38:58Speaker 13: can soon see this person and he'll he'll come up
- 39:01Speaker 13: with some sort of story and ask for money. He'll
- 39:03Speaker 13: say he doesn't want the money, but particularly he does,
- 39:06Speaker 13: and yeah, basically they're a scanner.
- 39:08Speaker 1: Oh, thank you so much for sharing that with us.
- 39:10Speaker 1: We really appreciate. I think that what you've done will
- 39:12Speaker 1: help out a lot of people by just by sharing that.
- 39:14Speaker 1: So thank you.
- 39:15Speaker 13: Yeah, no problem, have a good day.
- 39:17Speaker 1: Lots of texts coming through, someone saying let it play out,
- 39:20Speaker 1: make sure if she's safe, which if they do meet
- 39:24Speaker 1: in public, but no money handout provides support if it
- 39:27Speaker 1: falls over.
- 39:28Speaker 3: Yeah, she definitely needs to have the money conversation. It
- 39:31Speaker 3: was a good one that said you should do a
- 39:33Speaker 3: reverse Google search on the pictures that you're being sent,
- 39:37Speaker 3: see if they pop up and if they're actually.
- 39:40Speaker 1: Because if you feel like you should say something like
- 39:44Speaker 1: another text is coming through. There's a lot of scary
- 39:46Speaker 1: stories out there. If something bad happens, you will regret
- 39:48Speaker 1: not saying something, but then you don't want to.
- 39:52Speaker 3: You don't want to offender either. But yeah, I would
- 39:54Speaker 3: definitely keep an eye on that scenario.
- 39:56Speaker 1: Okay, so we need to come back with a and
- 39:57Speaker 1: it's dear Meghan, it's not their ben, So what's do
- 40:00Speaker 1: you know what?
- 40:01Speaker 3: I think, maybe have the conversation with her, just at
- 40:03Speaker 3: least chicken that she's not giving the Sky money and
- 40:06Speaker 3: just say look, do a reverse Google search, ask him
- 40:09Speaker 3: to do video calls. Just a double chick that it
- 40:11Speaker 3: is him. But I'm so happy for you if it's
- 40:13Speaker 3: if it's legit, you just have to be careful for you.
- 40:16Speaker 1: But yeah, there's a few red flames as well.
- 40:19Speaker 6: The heads that johnaan Ben podcast.
- 40:21Speaker 1: Another story was reading It feels like an only in
- 40:24Speaker 1: America situation. A guy on the bike got hit by
- 40:28Speaker 1: an ambulance. Oh god, and then they had take him
- 40:31Speaker 1: to the hospital in the ambulance that hit him, and
- 40:33Speaker 1: then he got charged for the ambulance ride.
- 40:37Speaker 3: We get charged for ambulance rights in New Zealand is
- 40:40Speaker 3: the one that.
- 40:43Speaker 1: You could wave this Actually on this occasion it was
- 40:46Speaker 1: our fault that you're in the I get it.
- 40:48Speaker 2: They normally you have to pay for it.
- 40:49Speaker 3: But on this occasion there's someone else in the ambulance.
- 40:52Speaker 3: Did he have to cuddle up on the gurney else?
- 40:54Speaker 2: Maybe that's sweat.
- 40:55Speaker 1: They're going around looking for work. They're like, slow, day,
- 40:58Speaker 1: I could hit this guy. And then yeah, so he's
- 41:00Speaker 1: all right now apart from the fact that he's got
- 41:02Speaker 1: to pay a large bill from an ambulance that he
- 41:06Speaker 1: was fine before the ambulance came along. Now we're doing
- 41:08Speaker 1: the Mariah Carey Christmas Game. It's a really, really fun
- 41:11Speaker 1: game to play, and it's amazing how many people playing
- 41:13Speaker 1: along with us.
- 41:14Speaker 3: Yeah, it's one basically Mariah Carey's iconic song, All I
- 41:17Speaker 3: Want for Christmas is you. You've got to try and
- 41:19Speaker 3: avoid it. That means you're still in the game. As
- 41:21Speaker 3: soon as you hear it, you're out. Now it has
- 41:24Speaker 3: to be Mariah's recorded version, but it's playing on TikTok,
- 41:27Speaker 3: it's playing in supermarkets. It's hard to avoid.
- 41:30Speaker 2: This is Mariah's time of year, right, this is where
- 41:33Speaker 2: she's stored.
- 41:34Speaker 1: She pops out, she's making her money, and you don't
- 41:36Speaker 1: know where to expect it. You know, you go every
- 41:38Speaker 1: time I go, like to a shop or a mall,
- 41:40Speaker 1: And'm like, this is it. There's nothing you can do
- 41:42Speaker 1: about it? Well, and then Ober the other day and
- 41:44Speaker 1: christ chitch won't we and I was like, Oh, it's
- 41:46Speaker 1: going to happen. It's going to happen, and we're.
- 41:48Speaker 3: Going to be on a very a station that would
- 41:51Speaker 3: play Mariah Carey.
- 41:51Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 41:52Speaker 2: Yeah, but fortunately we're both in the game, or am
- 41:55Speaker 2: I that's my version? All right?

- 42:12Speaker 1: maybe this.
- 42:13Speaker 2: Could be it?
- 42:15Speaker 9: Just trying to avoid the more.
- 42:16Speaker 8: It's amazing how much money you say when you don't.
- 42:20Speaker 3: But I always think you could just go there and
- 42:22Speaker 3: put headphones on. And do you look obnoxious if you're
- 42:25Speaker 3: walking through a mall with headphones on listening to your
- 42:27Speaker 3: own music?
- 42:28Speaker 1: Yea yeah, big, sort of like ear muffs that you'd
- 42:32Speaker 1: use for lawn mom. Maybe, but we but you could
- 42:35Speaker 1: do it each of their own. Let us know when
- 42:38Speaker 1: you're out, but hopefully it last longer than us.
- 42:41Speaker 3: Thanks Jackie, all right, good luck Jackie and Kylie, are
- 42:45Speaker 3: you still in the game.
- 42:47Speaker 10: Yes, I'm very much still in the game.
- 42:49Speaker 3: Have you had a hearing moment where you've been somewhere
- 42:51Speaker 3: and you're like.
- 42:55Speaker 10: Well, yeah, I don't. I don't frequent them all and
- 43:00Speaker 10: if I had to go in there, I would be
- 43:03Speaker 10: moving pretty quickly. And then as far as the Scooper Market,
- 43:07Speaker 10: I'm a big cautious about the supermarket. But it's mainly
- 43:11Speaker 10: around social media. So you know, I looked at Instagram
- 43:16Speaker 10: and things like that, and who that a lot of
- 43:18Speaker 10: people had dropped out viauns to it. So I just
- 43:20Speaker 10: literally look at friends stories and don't scroll.
- 43:24Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 43:24Speaker 1: Yeah, And it sound off as a good thing, you know.
- 43:27Speaker 1: Although John I clicked on one, he watched it, he
- 43:30Speaker 1: was like, this will be fine. Clicked on one.
- 43:31Speaker 2: It had Mariah Bam out of nowhere.
- 43:33Speaker 3: But it tells you down the bottom of a lot
- 43:34Speaker 3: of these things. What soundtrack is playing. It does right
- 43:37Speaker 3: on you and check what the soundtrack is. Good luck
- 43:39Speaker 3: could be good. It could be giving people like a
- 43:41Speaker 3: bit of space, a bit of time off social media.
- 43:44Speaker 1: Yeah true, actually me, you're right, well, let us know
- 43:47Speaker 1: when you're out, okay, yeah, totally text coming through. I'm
- 43:50Speaker 1: out of the game because apparently and apparently you know
- 43:53Speaker 1: in inverted commerce, because it was playing in the shop
- 43:57Speaker 1: that was in with my daughter. I never heard it,
- 44:00Speaker 1: but she told me I'm out. I feel like you
- 44:02Speaker 1: could stay in the game the potentially if you didn't
- 44:04Speaker 1: hear it.
- 44:04Speaker 3: So it's playing, but you didn't look like you're out. Afterwards,
- 44:09Speaker 3: know that you're out played while you were there, just
- 44:12Speaker 3: because you didn't notice talking You're like, I didn't notice that.
- 44:18Speaker 2: Okay, well, Megan saying you're out, I'm saying you're still one, but.
- 44:22Speaker 1: Holes, but you didn't.
- 44:25Speaker 2: And you played it to you in your sleep? Would
- 44:28Speaker 2: you be out? Would you be and you work out
- 44:31Speaker 2: in the next morning. That's what I played because I
- 44:33Speaker 2: was asleep.

- 48:15Speaker 4: Like you and Tom wrote this what many years ago, right,
- 48:18Speaker 4: we wrote the play. It was the first time Tom
- 48:20Speaker 4: and I ever wrote a play together, because we've run
- 48:22Speaker 4: in like weirdly, like eight plays together. Now I just
- 48:26Speaker 4: call rip it. I would just write them and they
- 48:28Speaker 4: just put them in the track.
- 48:31Speaker 1: We've put them on.
- 48:32Speaker 4: But just like as part of comedy fist, well, just
- 48:33Speaker 4: like a bit of fun. Yeah, so it's called camping.
- 48:36Speaker 4: We don't actually we wrote you know, with comedy fest
- 48:38Speaker 4: you just come up with these ideas so quickly and
- 48:40Speaker 4: then you're like, oh, who knows, and now it's a
- 48:42Speaker 4: sitting stone. So we actually don't go camping at all,
- 48:45Speaker 4: but camping is more like being camp So Tom and
- 48:49Speaker 4: myself play straight men who are married to Brintley and Cuder.
- 48:54Speaker 4: So these two couples sort of double book a Airbnb
- 48:59Speaker 4: and then just side that it's probably just for the
- 49:01Speaker 4: best if they all stay the night together rather than
- 49:04Speaker 4: work out who gets the place or not. Yeah, there's
- 49:06Speaker 4: a lot of sexual tension just building up through the
- 49:12Speaker 4: whole an hour and at haven't we drink second for

- 49:30Speaker 4: is explicit adult come to Chris.

- 49:43Speaker 1: okay to use chet GPT on the interview questions?
- 49:45Speaker 13: Yeah?
- 49:46Speaker 1: Came back absolutely, great idea, that's what chet GPT.
- 49:49Speaker 2: That's going to say that they were like.

- 54:10Speaker 3: I feel like it's an even crown. I don't feel
- 54:13Speaker 3: like it comes to a point, which it would if
- 54:15Speaker 3: there was five.
