ZM's Fletch, Vaughan & Hayley: Fletch, Vaughan & Hayley's Lil Bitta Pod - 30th August 2023

The ZM Podcast Network.

Fleshwater and Haley's Little Bit of Pod.

Treat yourself to McCafe coffee with My Mac's Rewards.

Welcome to A Little Bit of Pod.

Hello listeners, let me paint a picture for you of our studio, right?

We are in a big sort of glass box all together.

Glass box.

Glass box.

All together.

All together.

It's a little bit like the Lake House with Sandra Bullock.

No, it's not at all.

Lake House with Sandra Bullock.

It's a very glass.

It's a corporate lake house.

It's a corporate lake house with Sandra Bullock.

Why are you rapping everything?

I'm reiterating things in the musical style.

I'm liking it.

I'm picking up what he's putting down.

It's very Hamilton.

Very Hamilton.

What he's putting down.

Wow.

Wow.

Anyway, we all sit around a big desk.

Big old desk.

I'll turn your mic off as you do that one more time.

The desk is white.

And I am too.

Yeah, we can tell because of your rapping style.

Yeah, we can.

Now, the desk is white, right?

And it's a big round thing.

This was before you came in, Vaughn.

You might not know how disgustingly close you're sitting to this.

Yeah, we gather.

Who's?

No, there's not a shit in the studio.

Wheeze.

No, no wheeze.

No, nothing from the body.

Well, kind of.

We were having a meeting.

Stab.

And then, no.

And then producer Shannon was like, put her hands like,

I'm putting them now.

And she's like, ooh, some rat bag has put gum under our desk.

Look at it.

Right under there.

In our professional workplace.

At the mic one position.

What is this?

Is this a podcast?

Yeah.

Fucking high school?

Yeah.

Are you kidding me?

Now, I reckon this is my, these are my thoughts.

I don't think it's someone that works here.

No way.

Because that is a guest mic position.

That is someone that's coming for an interview.

And they're like, oh fuck, I've got chewing gum.

I've got chatty.

I've got to put this somewhere.

There's no rubbish bin in here.

It's closest to Vaughan.

And I feel in my soul you wouldn't do this.

You're not a chatty.

I don't like gum at all.

None of us are here.

None of us are chatty people.

Who's there in the afternoon?

No one.

No one.

No one.

Gum at a stretch if you think you might have a little stinky breath.

Yeah.

You better rather mint.

Do the afternoon producers, have you guys seen them chewing gum?

Ever?

No, I don't believe so.

Anyone in the office a gum-chewer?

Nah.

I've seen a guest chewing gum.

Who?

Who?

Celebrity?

These are my thoughts.

It's a guest.

It's one of the fucking waggles.

The purple one.

No, he never got that close to the desk.

No, he wasn't chewing gum either.

He wasn't chewing gum either.

What about under your desk?

Is there any gum there?

Because that would indicate we've got someone in a shared space.

I might look under mine.

Let's have a look.

Let's have a look.

I'll look under mine.

No.

No, we're good.

We're good on this side.

None under me.

Yeah.

Okay, so this is what I reckon.

It's not a producer.

It's not someone that works here because we wouldn't treat our own space like

that.

I don't know.

This is a guest that's come in.

Who has been in?

Teddy Swims.

Didn't sit there.

No, it didn't sit there.

He sat in Haley's seat.

Okay.

So that's the other side of the desk.

The wiggles were there though.

Who was it coming in?

It's hard.

Is it Sahai?

No.

No, Sahai wouldn't do this.

Maybe some people that happened to visit that were in a TV show that Aaron might also

be on.

Oh.

Oh, it's not good.

Robin?

No.

No.

Was Robin Malcolm?

No.

She was having a scone.

She had a scone.

No, you wouldn't have gum.

She just thoroughly chews her food.

No, because she was midway through scone.

Was she?

I'm rolling out Robin Malcolm and Tim O'Earrow to Madison.

Of course.

Yeah.

Boba Fett.

Who else?

Who else has been in?

I mean, it could have been there a while.

I think it's been there a while.

It's very hard.

We're thinking one of the 60 boys.

When I hit it, I felt a reverb.

It was old.

Oh, yeah.

Okay.

That's been here a long time.

Yeah.

There have been so many guests that have sat there.

It was white as well.

Chuck me your knife.

No, it wouldn't be bad.

You spit it out, would it?

No, no, no.

No, no, no.

Some DNA testing.

What about...

When you see this straight to the police, you're right.

Put it on, please.

Yeah.

No, put it in a tissue.

Don't put it straight on the plate, because we're always going to know it's been on their

plate.

And every time we get a plate, I'm going to think, is this the gum plate?

Put a tissue on it.

But no, wait.

This is what people do when they feed their cats food off of their slow plates.

No, no, no, no.

You don't use the same plates for yourself.

No, people do.

People do.

You just have to put a glass, wear a glass.

And then you wash it, and then you drink out of it.

No, God, no.

And it's his glass now.

Okay.

How long do you reckon, Vaughn?

Just...

It's well on there.

Yeah, that's what I thought.

This could be years.

I mean, God.

I lost it.

I put it on.

Oh, no, there it is.

Oh, gosh.

It could have been Fifth Harmony, going back like six years.

We don't know.

It could have been Taylor Swift.

It could have been Taylor Swift.

Has she been in here?

No, she hasn't been in here.

Ed Sheeran's been in here.

Who else has been in here?

Why any piece of gum?

That gum could be worth quite a bit, if it's Taylor Swift.

This could be Celebrity Gum.

Why any piece of gum?

It gets big juicy fruit energy, because it's small.

Small and white.

PK.

PK.

PK.

One little tablet of PK.

That's a girl-sized chewing gum.

That's all sexist.

No, I think he's right, though.

Guys always go two to three pieces.

Hubba-bubba, or...?

No, it's not hubba-bubba.

More of a stick.

There's a PK.

Could you sniff it to see?

Because you can always get the kind of the...

Oh, shoot.

What are you getting there?

Mint.

That...

A juicy...

The Wrigley's PK, but the orange...

Yes.

Yes, yes, yes.

Not a really minty, just basic gum.

Just gum.

Or a menthol.

Is that a menthol or whatever?

Orange.

It's sort of just a flat gum.

Wow.

That's quite disgusting, isn't it?

Quite disgusting.

We cannot let the investigation die here.

We're going to have to go back.

Every guest that's been in the studio for the last five years, I'd say.

Yeah.

And figure it out.

Okay.

The Wrigley's PK is a light peppermint flavour.

Okay.

Yeah, right.

What does the PK stand for?

It stands for Philip Knight Wrigley.

He was the man that invented PK gum.

What was he?

He was Wrigley's Wrigley.

Wrigley Wrigley's.

Steve Wrigley.

Steve Wrigley's.

Great grandad.

Okay.

Hey, we've had a lot of comedians.

They're pretty skanky and rough.

You know what I mean?

Yeah, yeah, could be.

Yeah, that rough is...

Guy Montgomery, Chris Parker.

It's got to be someone...

Guy Montgomery was raised better.

It's got to be someone from a group.

Normally people will sit...

That's the last mic that gets used.

That is the last mic that gets used.

So that means there's got to be more than two guests.

LAB?

You know, we've had them in.

Yeah, we've had so many bands in.

Who knows?

Well...

The mystery continues.
