Good one Michael 🤣

"What about Act? Who is the Prebble of 2023? There is no listed candidate for the [Wellington Central] electorate, and when the chair of the event, RNZ legend Bryan Crump, looked unsuccessfully around the room for someone from the party, Michael Appleby of the Aotearoa Legalise Cannabis Party piped up. 'They asked me to speak on their behalf', he lied. 'The Association of Cannabis and Toking'."

Not sure why Toby felt the need to say "lied" instead of "joked" though, which would be more accurate. Seems like maybe he's harbouring some resentment towards Michael or the Cannabis Party?
