Chapter 1: What social media challenges does Mike face?

0.79 - 17.989 Mick Molloy

For all you mad bastards loving the Big Show Podcast. Get up even closer. On Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok. Or Raw Dog It. Four to seven every weekday. On Radio Hodecky. Oh, g'day, fellas. Make me.

18.897 - 29.093 Jason Hoyte

Hi. Jeez, he's blowing a gale out there, boys. She's a windy bastard, boys. Jeez Louise. There's no willing to know. 150 k's down there, mate. Oh, really? 150. Wow.

Chapter 2: How do the hosts react to a windy day in Wellington?

29.113 - 51.048 Jason Hoyte

150 k's. Rude's flying off. No flights. Airport's closed. Sandy Wellington. Sandy is summer. Beautiful summer's day in the middle of winter. A still day in Wellington. It's interesting with our apartment because we've got those massive palms right outside our window. And they get a real, and like get within inches of our windows. It's actually quite scary. It's spooky.

51.088 - 70.318 Jason Hoyte

I can see you being scared of something like that. Yeah, my wife had to hug me because I was so frightened. Fellas, I want to run something past you. You had a social media incident last night. Yes. See if we're going to talk about, just spat some cracker on the old microphone there, Keezy. So I'm sitting there, I'm on my phone. Yes. I'm on Instagram.

70.518 - 85.568 Jason Hoyte

While I'm on Instagram, I get a friend request. Okay. I don't know about you. We'll find out. Pugs, you can be on the chat on this one as well if you need to as well. Not all the time, depending, but generally if I get a friend request, I'll see who it is in case I know them.

0

85.588 - 85.788 Mike Minogue

Yeah.

86.369 - 116.749 Jason Hoyte

And then I have to follow them back. I go onto this person, I look, I recognise the person, I've seen the person, but I don't know the person. Yeah. So for me, it would be weird for me to follow this person back. Never spoken to this person in my life. I go back out of the profile and I look and I'm following the person. So at some point during that process, I've hit follow.

117.07 - 124.521 Jason Hoyte

But I've followed this person back immediately after their friend requested me. Right? Yeah.

Chapter 3: What social media incident does Mike share?

124.761 - 146.786 Jason Hoyte

So that's happened straight away. So then I go, and when I see that I've followed, I think to myself, shit, have I already followed this person at some point? That's not even possible. So then I'm looking to see when I've followed. It's not. This person has followed me. I've followed back. Right. So then I'm like, well, I should unfollow because I don't know this person.

0

147.287 - 150.331 Jason Hoyte

And it's weird for me to be following this person because I don't know them at all.

0

150.672 - 151.794 Mike Minogue

Are they a well-known person?

0

Chapter 4: How does Mike handle an accidental follow on Instagram?

151.834 - 152.034 Jason Hoyte

No.

0

152.635 - 152.935 Mike Minogue

Okay.

0

152.955 - 156.501 Jason Hoyte

Are they male or female? They're female.

0

157.622 - 158.544 Mike Minogue

Okay.

0

159.185 - 166.496 Jason Hoyte

Okay. Here we go. Oh, yeah. Okay. Yes. So then I think, well, I should unfollow because I don't know the person. But the fact that I've just followed them back immediately.

166.676 - 167.137 Mike Minogue

Yeah.

168.238 - 178.646 Jason Hoyte

I'm thinking that they're probably still on the phone. Or whatever device he uses. Oh, follow back. That was quick. But then I would unfollow the person. Then I'd be weird.

180.688 - 185.914 Mike Minogue

You could just quickly unfollow and then just go, because if that was them, they might think, oh, glitch maybe.

186.935 - 197.267 Jason Hoyte

Oh, yeah. But I was a little bit worried. Because I know the person works here. I was going to say, was it someone from here? Yeah, but I don't know them.

Chapter 5: What are the implications of following someone you don't know?

295.43 - 301.737 Jason Hoyte

And I also said, I won't use your name. So I said, I look, she said, I look forward to being part of the content. So she is a fan of the show.

0

302.317 - 314.77 Mike Minogue

Right. Okay. So. Well, that's all G that's, that's fine. That's right in the end though. Are you able to say her name and Pugs will beep it out? Um. Just to see if I'm following them. Just so I know who it is. Okay. Okay. Uh, it's.

0

316.201 - 323.572 Jason Hoyte

Do you know who that is? Yes. So that's the follow. And then I'm like, follow back immediately.

0

323.592 - 325.335 Joe Tomlinson

And then I'm like, oh.

0

326.056 - 326.317 Jason Hoyte

Yeah.

326.857 - 339.036 Joe Tomlinson

I, quite honestly, you got a great result out of that. It was a very honest response and you sorted it out. Not anything close to what I would have done. I would have had no shame and immediately I'm following.

339.016 - 346.166 Mike Minogue

Yeah. I would have panicked and called them on Instagram and set up a date at Ray Burger.

346.787 - 354.739 Joe Tomlinson

Set up like a one-on-one situation.

355.56 - 379.273

Can we meet down at Empire? I need to chat this through. Welcome to Klaas Olsson. Klaas Olsson. I probably wouldn't have even noticed.

Chapter 6: How does the age difference affect social media interactions?

492.549 - 498.566 Jason Hoyte

And it was a rugby league player's partner. Whoa. Oh, yeah. I know.

0

498.766 - 500.79 Mike Minogue

Was she attractive? No. No, she wasn't.

0

502.112 - 518.603 Jason Hoyte

Oh, okay. No, she wasn't at all. And I had absolutely no idea who it was. She's got about 300 followers or something like that. Was it a warrior? And so what it would have been is this person would have done, no, this person would have done a collab, and I followed off the collab and ended up following both of the parties.

0

518.583 - 524.791 Mike Minogue

Did you unfollow? Are you worried about... I unfollowed her. No, he messaged her first and met up.

0

524.811 - 528.756 Jason Hoyte

This is weird. Can we meet for coffee so we can sort this, please?

529.818 - 539.23 Mike Minogue

Are you worried about the sort of early onset boomer nature of your Instagram use? You don't have the accidental follows and things. I might have done that. I'm not sure.

539.29 - 556.577 Jason Hoyte

Well, that's the thing. You don't know because every now and then I'll go through mine and I'll go through all my follows and I'll just get rid of them. I go, why have I followed this? Why am I following this? Why am I following this? Yeah. Because you do it, like 1,600 is too much. I don't know that many people. Yeah, what was my, how many did I have? 78.

556.637 - 562.045 Jason Hoyte

And I end up following like political shit and then your feed is full of that. Most of mine is political, I think.

563.887 - 589.596 Mike Minogue

So good. Most of it, fellas. You've got a clean Insta and a burner Insta though, eh? Yeah, yeah. On my other phone. No, no, no. You can have it on the same phone. Jason's got a whole other phone for looking at buzzies. Yeah, I've got a buzzy phone. It's got a massive screen on it. Yeah. That's the cracked one. It's an iPad. No, it's covered in glad wrap.
