So thank you, Thank you.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
Any prior for your loyal listening years now. Meghan, you've
been very excited about some Elon Musk audio.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
You have to present first.
Speaker 5 (01:13):
That you're a big fan of oh yeah, not every
I don't.
Speaker 4 (01:18):
We only like because he's a billionaire.
Speaker 5 (01:20):
I just find him like really intriguing.
Speaker 6 (01:22):
You love all the South Africans.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Yeah, yeah, she loves No, I don't think so for
all the time.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
Yeah, Andrews is it?
Speaker 6 (01:35):
Yeah, but it cares one of those ones where Andrew
can say it.
Speaker 5 (01:38):
It means South African doesn't.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
Know you're saying a kiwi. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I would
have thought. I love how I say it. Then I
go offensive. I wouldn't say it would be offensive.
Speaker 5 (01:52):
Don't tell me it's fensive.
Speaker 6 (01:54):
We'll read it here. This person doesn't doesn't think it's offensive.
Speaker 5 (01:58):
I'm sure it's just short for Africa.
Speaker 6 (02:00):
Yeah, as older people may be offended if they're called that.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
It's according to everyone's someone's going to be offended somewhere,
but generally speaking, we're not.
Speaker 4 (02:11):
We're not playing in dangerous territory.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
What's the what's what's a great South African dish that
you've tried?
Speaker 4 (02:18):
Well, they are.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
Nailing that that we wouldn't have had here, and.
Speaker 5 (02:23):
Try to think, yeah, I'm trying to think of the
CON's word for it. Basically, they what is it called?
Speaker 1 (02:30):
They make like half a loaf of white bread, right,
and then you hollow it out and you put.
Speaker 5 (02:35):
Like a curry in it called yeah sounds nice.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Fi cook which is like like a fried ball of
dough and then you stuff it with mint.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
Wh Yeah, yeah nice. They bloody love their meats over there,
don't they. Br brie? Is that a big barbecue? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:57):
But usually over like a coal not you know, like
a gas takes ages because they build the fire and
then you gotta let it cook down, so it's just
colds and it's heat.
Speaker 5 (03:06):
And me and my husband always like, god, this takes river.
Just fire on the got a gas barbecue, but it
doesn't taste.
Speaker 6 (03:12):
That's probably one of those things that you.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
Yeah, they're like the flame grill situation.
Speaker 6 (03:18):
Delici people that were by the web of people that
I love that.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
Yeah, you with a person know it with a jump
back from that was a river.
Speaker 6 (03:27):
I've got a nice We've got a nicer barbecue than
the the jump back was fine. But we've got a
nice but not a web, but.
Speaker 5 (03:32):
One we're not allowed to use the web, but that
we have to make a fire.
Speaker 6 (03:36):
That one's got a blue like sort of a teal
roof on that like a lit and my wife that
was once she wanted and the guy in the store
was like, there was an orange one and he was like,
gonna give it to us as a discount. I'm like,
you take this, I don't know, I really like the
teal color and gave and just get on the teer
one because it wasn't the Nevin still.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
But it was all blacks are more expensive than the
ones that have.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
Like a white little with ever.
Speaker 6 (04:03):
Yeah, Jesus, we paid. We're going to put it under
a barbecue cover for nine months of the year.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
We're worried about it. Yeah, what is the weather a
better meat?
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Like if you cook a sag on a webber compared
to a jump buck, and you notice the.
Speaker 6 (04:17):
Web so you can do the coals and stuff. So
people that love Yeah, people pizzas on it of my
cock's amazing pizzas on it.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
Pizzas as well.
Speaker 6 (04:25):
Then they have electric ones as well, so electric when
you put a check it up as button up chickens
and then check it on the.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Things, it all tastes the same to me.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Yeah. My dad he didn't ever web it, but I
remember distinctly remember growing up he had this thing like
shape like a weather Webber.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
But boy, just.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Plumes of smoke just covering the neighborhood. Like you look,
the poor neighbors, like they you know, the smell of smoke.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
Smoke.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Yeah, they would have like the hold, their clothes would
have stunk. But he loves he loves a smoky barbecue.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
Yeah, we lived down from like a I'm going to
say who they are because it's all complimentary from Hallatowel
Brewery and they do like wood fired pizzas and like
a lot of like barbecue meats man with the winds
hitting it right that time of the night, you're like.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
Oh god, it sounds good.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
Do you go there a lot?
Speaker 1 (05:16):
It's like walking distance you should go from, or like
Sundays ago and like a scrub Sea should never do.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
Yeah, strawbry pecking on you know a summer and then
you go to Burrow. It's great.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
Yeah, sometimes you don't even just go to the places
in your own backyard.
Speaker 5 (05:30):
Dear, literally walking distance.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Okay, So this is Elon Musk Audio took a dog
leaguere was South African.
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Sorry my fault. This is what we played. Your need
to say anything before?
Speaker 5 (05:41):
This is why I love him because he's so random.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
This is him talking about eels and where they come from.
Speaker 7 (05:47):
So did you know that eels are the only animals
in the world that we have no idea where they
came from, like the weird fish in the oceans, scientists
have done like observations of them, and eels during a
specific time in the year, regardless of where they are,
will literally all travel to the Bermuda triangle and that's
(06:09):
where they link up, no matter where they are from Europe,
the freshwater rivers of the United States. When it's time
to mate, they just all go to the Bermuda triangle.
And it's dangerous for scientists to study them, so it's
a bit hot. So we don't really know where they
originate from. And the females and males have no reproductive organs,
so like how do they reproduce? Also, they did a
(06:31):
test where they put the eels inside a bucket. Then
when it was time to mate, they all swam in
the direction of the Bermuda triangle. You know how people
have speculated like octopuses being aliens, right, people think eels
also might not be from here. And then the theory
goes on to claim that there was a meteor that
(06:51):
crashed in the Bermuda Triangle and allegedly crashed sixty five
million years ago, coincidentally, when the dinosaurs were gone.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
What now, are you sure that it's not bloody Ai
doing Elon Musk's voice about the and now I need
to ask his questions because I've fallen into the trap.
Speaker 5 (07:11):
So I have done light research.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Okay that that video has been reproduced multiple times, and
I've seen new stories about Elon talking about it, and
I don't imagine that he would relay information that wasn't.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
He knows what he's on about. He knows what he's
on about. Yeah, he will take a quick break from
the world. We're but back after this. Welcome back. So
the New Zealand eels and the Waikato River at one
point this year are going to make their way to
the Bermuda Triangle to mate.
Speaker 4 (07:41):
I was just looking up at that.
Speaker 6 (07:42):
So I'm looking at the government where website doc and
so there's some information on eels for New Zealand. Yeah,
so saying eel's, especially at the end of it. Eel's
can live up to one hundred years and I breed
only once at the end of their lives. It's quite interesting,
but in order to breed, they undergo mass spawning migrations,
leaving the familiary of lakes and rivers and swim all
the way up to the subtropical Pacific Ocean. Now is
(08:04):
that where or do they go to another spot around
the side of the world because Europe this is an
online Europe and American eels go to the Bermuda Triangle?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Where do eels swim to to mate?
Speaker 3 (08:17):
So the other thing is, we've got a friend whose
brother works a neil from they can't.
Speaker 5 (08:25):
But then how do they how do they reproduce them?
Speaker 4 (08:27):
So no one knows how they reproduce.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
We don't have any reproductive organs. Where are they getting
the eels from? There's a lot of questions. But so
the idea of the Bermuda Triangle is there's been lots
of unexplained like crashes, right planes, and.
Speaker 6 (08:42):
Yeah, I don't think, sorry, I don't think our eels
go to the Bermuda Triangle from quicklock, Okay, but they
still go to deep waters.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
So yeah, they go somewhere.
Speaker 6 (08:50):
Yeah, they go somewhere in migration to mate. Sorry.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
Yeah, so that what they go to the deep caves
of the ocean.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
And says here it says no matter where they are,
they will all travel to the Bermuda tra angle.
Speaker 5 (09:00):
Is that not true? Maybe that is the TikTok stories.
Why don't we know where eels come from?
Speaker 6 (09:06):
Oh God, they're discussing the mood of triangles in the
Atlantic Ocean according to this, and we're now saying our
ones go the Pacific Ocean.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
So I don't know.
Speaker 6 (09:15):
But anyway, then they weren't even mating the rivers and stuff.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
They're going, well, yeah, it's a big journey too for
an eel to make its way from the River and
Thames all the way.
Speaker 6 (09:26):
At one hundred years, like Joe Biden.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
So every eel in the world goes to a location.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
Is that what they're saying?
Speaker 6 (09:35):
They all go out to when they decide to reproduce.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
There's a point there. There's no eels in New Zealand.
They've all just gone. No.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
But I think it must be at the stage of
their life, so it must be when they're like even
our buddy, even our.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
Eels are going off shore.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
All the good things from New Zealand a going off shore,
bitter cost of living overseas, more opportunities overseas, even for
the eels. Yeah, yeah, I've got a big fear of eels. God,
he put me in a tank with them.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
It was amare Did it make it better or worse?
That picture that I just showed you.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Oh the eel eating its way out of a bird.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
So a bird had caught an eel and was flying,
but then the earl was not like not today, and
you can see it hanging out of the bird's neck.
He had eaten and hit its way out. Neither of
them survived, though, because I think the eel fell to
the ground.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
A big drop for that eel too.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Yeah, that's why eels are a nasty, disgusting creature.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Only in fact don't know about eels is a letsh
onto your penis and death roll it off.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Jesus, Oh my god, that's what were you.
Speaker 5 (10:43):
You weren't naked though, right.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
No, I wore two piers because I heard two peers
of dogs because no, no, no, but they did. Look
the guy we were talking about her at the eel farm,
he's a friend's brother of ours. He told me that
he told me the eel fed and you said they
can suck onto your fingers, and she said.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
They can be quite aggressive. Yeah, because they've got their
back up.
Speaker 6 (11:09):
Imagine, so if you probably stand on them accidentally or
something like that, they're probably gonna latch out.
Speaker 4 (11:14):
They never tried el smoke deal.
Speaker 6 (11:19):
All right. There was a lot of meat to it.
Speaker 5 (11:22):
I quite like.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Eating like a chicken neck, so I imagine a similar
to that, right.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
But you look, you look at a lot of the
ocean's creatures. They are very alien like. You know, there's
this fish, undiscovered fish that are deep deep deep Marianna Trench,
deep part of the ocean that they haven't scientists haven't
even seen yet.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
They're just living down on the dark.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
You know.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Every now and then, like a giant squared or some
like unknown giant like floppy fish washes up on shore
and everyone's like, hmm, where'd.
Speaker 5 (11:52):
You come from?
Speaker 6 (11:53):
Quite alien like freaky if you're down there, like angler fish.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
Have you seen those things? What's that with the little
are they the ones they have the little light on? Y?
Speaker 6 (12:08):
Yeah, they kind of look like kind of piranhas.
Speaker 5 (12:12):
I think that's just the tip of the deep ocean.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Absolutely, because you can't get they can't get deep enough
to even research.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
And if that's an indication of what's down there, don't
you don't want to know.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
That's why I'm like, swimming in the ocean. Oh you're
not an ocean swimmer, not really.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
Yeah, I get it.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
I get it, especially when they're like, hey, it's getting warmer,
sharks and stuff gonna swim around.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
There are some frightening looking fish down the bottom. You
know this is this is not even in the depths
that thing. Yeah, yeah, and they all look a bit
aggressive because I imagine if you can't see what you're
doing down there, you want to.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Have Yeah that's nasty, yeah, google.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
Yeah, crazy you But you like swimming the ocean bed,
don't mind.
Speaker 6 (12:58):
Yeah, I'm not like I'm not deep sea diving or
anything like that, though.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
I like like going on the back of a boat,
like wakeboarding or going on a biscuit. But then you
eventually fall off, right and the boat's got to come
back and get you.
Speaker 5 (13:13):
That's the most traumatic.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
He leaves a dangling you look down at it, it's dark,
and then something brushes past your league.
Speaker 6 (13:19):
I'm like, oh god, yeah, no, I agreed, but yeah,
that's the worst part.
Speaker 4 (13:24):
I understand that.
Speaker 6 (13:25):
But you imagine, like how I kind of think of
that time. You know, you're not actually there for that long.
Surely for someone to swim up from the one.
Speaker 5 (13:31):
Does it take for a shark to bite me in half?
Speaker 6 (13:33):
Oh, you're not long, but he's not.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
Yeah, I love those leigeons.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Or like, I just fought the shark mate, you know. Yeah,
every now and then it pops up on the news.
You thought, tussled around and it punched it in the face.
I'm not thinking about.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
That coming at me.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
I would be useless, so I'd just be like, tell
I guess it's Helldian, You're terrible way to go.
Speaker 4 (13:55):
Yeah. We spoke to a guy. Oh, he's betting the
film for an oar or something. Was he surfing or.
Speaker 6 (14:01):
A shark? Yeah, there was something he was.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
Yeah, he's like, you know what.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
You know, I like to think that the pain would
be so great you wouldn't feel it, you know, yeah, before.
Speaker 4 (14:12):
You felt anything.
Speaker 5 (14:13):
Yeah, yeah, grim.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
But the actually I imagine they said, Well, they do
say that your chance of hearing car accidents is far
more likely than being attacked.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
By a shark in the ocean. You're probably right, but
the stats.
Speaker 5 (14:25):
Are very true.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
You're not someone that no, I do like I would
only sleep in the swim in the shallows, right, But
it's more when I'm out on like a biscuit or
anything and people try and flip you off, and like,
do not flip me off?
Speaker 6 (14:38):
Oh really?
Speaker 5 (14:38):
So I don't want to dangle in the ocean if
you just.
Speaker 6 (14:41):
Momentially you wouldn't swim, So you wouldn't swim across one.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Point shit no quite God, no, don't get any ideas.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
Your chance of being attacked and killed by a shark
are one and three point seventy five million.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
Jeez, so nothing to worry about me.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
I was on a jet ski once near Waiki Island
in Auckland and there was at least like six hammerhead
sharks that were swimming underneath us.
Speaker 5 (15:09):
And I know I don't think they attack.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
But like I don't want to fall in and hang
out with them. That was bloody terrifying. Also, like the
hammerheads have other friends as sharks, you know they likely.
Speaker 5 (15:20):
To what's there other ones in there?
Speaker 4 (15:22):
You think?
Speaker 6 (15:22):
Once yeah, well maybe maybe?
Speaker 5 (15:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
I was like, oh my god, don't fall off now,
well you're gonna tell me that hammerheads?
Speaker 3 (15:30):
No, this is so your odds are so one in
three points seventy five million being attacked by a shark
odds being struck by lightning only one in fifteen thousand.
Speaker 5 (15:39):
So you're more likely to gain struck by lightning.
Speaker 6 (15:43):
Fifteen when dangling in the water for a while.
Speaker 4 (15:47):
Yeah, she's there. That put on perspective for you.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Yeah, okay, I'm still stuck on our hammerhead's dangerous And
there we go.
Speaker 6 (15:57):
That is today's Worldwide where we covered some ground as
you usual if you start.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
With it's not dangerous. In fact, the amounts are very
small so proable. Couldn't bite you anyway.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Really Yeah, okayty run he runs minds of these.
Speaker 6 (16:09):
We'll some stuff on the world where we'll be back
in tomorrow
Today I bring you a clip about Elon Musk, eels
and the Bermuda Triangle all in one.

Speaker 4 (02:18):
Well, they are.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
Nailing that that we wouldn't have had here, and.
Speaker 5 (02:23):
Try to think, yeah, I'm trying to think of the
CON's word for it. Basically, they what is it called?
Speaker 1 (02:30):
They make like half a loaf of white bread, right,
and then you hollow it out and you put.
Speaker 5 (02:35):
Like a curry in it called yeah sounds nice.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Fi cook which is like like a fried ball of
dough and then you stuff it with mint.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
Wh Yeah, yeah nice. They bloody love their meats over there,
don't they. Br brie? Is that a big barbecue? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:57):
But usually over like a coal not you know, like
a gas takes ages because they build the fire and
then you gotta let it cook down, so it's just
colds and it's heat.
Speaker 5 (03:06):
And me and my husband always like, god, this takes river.
Just fire on the got a gas barbecue, but it
doesn't taste.
Speaker 6 (03:12):
That's probably one of those things that you.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
Yeah, they're like the flame grill situation.
Speaker 6 (03:18):
Delici people that were by the web of people that
I love that.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
Yeah, you with a person know it with a jump
back from that was a river.
Speaker 6 (03:27):
I've got a nice We've got a nicer barbecue than
the the jump back was fine. But we've got a
nice but not a web, but.
Speaker 5 (03:32):
One we're not allowed to use the web, but that
we have to make a fire.
Speaker 6 (03:36):
That one's got a blue like sort of a teal
roof on that like a lit and my wife that
was once she wanted and the guy in the store
was like, there was an orange one and he was like,
gonna give it to us as a discount. I'm like,
you take this, I don't know, I really like the
teal color and gave and just get on the teer
one because it wasn't the Nevin still.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
But it was all blacks are more expensive than the
ones that have.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
Like a white little with ever.
Speaker 6 (04:03):
Yeah, Jesus, we paid. We're going to put it under
a barbecue cover for nine months of the year.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
We're worried about it. Yeah, what is the weather a
better meat?
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Like if you cook a sag on a webber compared
to a jump buck, and you notice the.
Speaker 6 (04:17):
Web so you can do the coals and stuff. So
people that love Yeah, people pizzas on it of my
cock's amazing pizzas on it.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
Pizzas as well.
Speaker 6 (04:25):
Then they have electric ones as well, so electric when
you put a check it up as button up chickens
and then check it on the.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Things, it all tastes the same to me.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Yeah. My dad he didn't ever web it, but I
remember distinctly remember growing up he had this thing like
shape like a weather Webber.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
But boy, just.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Plumes of smoke just covering the neighborhood. Like you look,
the poor neighbors, like they you know, the smell of smoke.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
Smoke.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Yeah, they would have like the hold, their clothes would
have stunk. But he loves he loves a smoky barbecue.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
Yeah, we lived down from like a I'm going to
say who they are because it's all complimentary from Hallatowel
Brewery and they do like wood fired pizzas and like
a lot of like barbecue meats man with the winds
hitting it right that time of the night, you're like.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
Oh god, it sounds good.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
Do you go there a lot?
Speaker 1 (05:16):
It's like walking distance you should go from, or like
Sundays ago and like a scrub Sea should never do.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
Yeah, strawbry pecking on you know a summer and then
you go to Burrow. It's great.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
Yeah, sometimes you don't even just go to the places
in your own backyard.
Speaker 5 (05:30):
Dear, literally walking distance.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Okay, So this is Elon Musk Audio took a dog
leaguere was South African.
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Sorry my fault. This is what we played. Your need
to say anything before?
Speaker 5 (05:41):
This is why I love him because he's so random.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
This is him talking about eels and where they come from.
Speaker 7 (05:47):
So did you know that eels are the only animals
in the world that we have no idea where they
came from, like the weird fish in the oceans, scientists
have done like observations of them, and eels during a
specific time in the year, regardless of where they are,
will literally all travel to the Bermuda triangle and that's
(06:09):
where they link up, no matter where they are from Europe,
the freshwater rivers of the United States. When it's time
to mate, they just all go to the Bermuda triangle.
And it's dangerous for scientists to study them, so it's
a bit hot. So we don't really know where they
originate from. And the females and males have no reproductive organs,
so like how do they reproduce? Also, they did a
(06:31):
test where they put the eels inside a bucket. Then
when it was time to mate, they all swam in
the direction of the Bermuda triangle. You know how people
have speculated like octopuses being aliens, right, people think eels
also might not be from here. And then the theory
goes on to claim that there was a meteor that
(06:51):
crashed in the Bermuda Triangle and allegedly crashed sixty five
million years ago, coincidentally, when the dinosaurs were gone.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
What now, are you sure that it's not bloody Ai
doing Elon Musk's voice about the and now I need
to ask his questions because I've fallen into the trap.
Speaker 5 (07:11):
So I have done light research.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Okay that that video has been reproduced multiple times, and
I've seen new stories about Elon talking about it, and
I don't imagine that he would relay information that wasn't.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
He knows what he's on about. He knows what he's
on about. Yeah, he will take a quick break from
the world. We're but back after this. Welcome back. So
the New Zealand eels and the Waikato River at one
point this year are going to make their way to
the Bermuda Triangle to mate.
Speaker 4 (07:41):
I was just looking up at that.
Speaker 6 (07:42):
So I'm looking at the government where website doc and
so there's some information on eels for New Zealand. Yeah,
so saying eel's, especially at the end of it. Eel's
can live up to one hundred years and I breed
only once at the end of their lives. It's quite interesting,
but in order to breed, they undergo mass spawning migrations,
leaving the familiary of lakes and rivers and swim all
the way up to the subtropical Pacific Ocean. Now is
(08:04):
that where or do they go to another spot around
the side of the world because Europe this is an
online Europe and American eels go to the Bermuda Triangle?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Where do eels swim to to mate?
Speaker 3 (08:17):
So the other thing is, we've got a friend whose
brother works a neil from they can't.
Speaker 5 (08:25):
But then how do they how do they reproduce them?
Speaker 4 (08:27):
So no one knows how they reproduce.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
We don't have any reproductive organs. Where are they getting
the eels from? There's a lot of questions. But so
the idea of the Bermuda Triangle is there's been lots
of unexplained like crashes, right planes, and.
Speaker 6 (08:42):
Yeah, I don't think, sorry, I don't think our eels
go to the Bermuda Triangle from quicklock, Okay, but they
still go to deep waters.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
So yeah, they go somewhere.
Speaker 6 (08:50):
Yeah, they go somewhere in migration to mate. Sorry.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
Yeah, so that what they go to the deep caves
of the ocean.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
And says here it says no matter where they are,
they will all travel to the Bermuda tra angle.
Speaker 5 (09:00):
Is that not true? Maybe that is the TikTok stories.
Why don't we know where eels come from?
Speaker 6 (09:06):
Oh God, they're discussing the mood of triangles in the
Atlantic Ocean according to this, and we're now saying our
ones go the Pacific Ocean.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
So I don't know.
Speaker 6 (09:15):
But anyway, then they weren't even mating the rivers and stuff.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
They're going, well, yeah, it's a big journey too for
an eel to make its way from the River and
Thames all the way.
Speaker 6 (09:26):
At one hundred years, like Joe Biden.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
So every eel in the world goes to a location.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
Is that what they're saying?
Speaker 6 (09:35):
They all go out to when they decide to reproduce.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
There's a point there. There's no eels in New Zealand.
They've all just gone. No.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
But I think it must be at the stage of
their life, so it must be when they're like even
our buddy, even our.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
Eels are going off shore.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
All the good things from New Zealand a going off shore,
bitter cost of living overseas, more opportunities overseas, even for
the eels. Yeah, yeah, I've got a big fear of eels. God,
he put me in a tank with them.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
It was amare Did it make it better or worse?
That picture that I just showed you.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Oh the eel eating its way out of a bird.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
So a bird had caught an eel and was flying,
but then the earl was not like not today, and
you can see it hanging out of the bird's neck.
He had eaten and hit its way out. Neither of
them survived, though, because I think the eel fell to
the ground.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
A big drop for that eel too.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Yeah, that's why eels are a nasty, disgusting creature.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Only in fact don't know about eels is a letsh
onto your penis and death roll it off.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Jesus, Oh my god, that's what were you.
Speaker 5 (10:43):
You weren't naked though, right.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
No, I wore two piers because I heard two peers
of dogs because no, no, no, but they did. Look
the guy we were talking about her at the eel farm,
he's a friend's brother of ours. He told me that
he told me the eel fed and you said they
can suck onto your fingers, and she said.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
They can be quite aggressive. Yeah, because they've got their
back up.
Speaker 6 (11:09):
Imagine, so if you probably stand on them accidentally or
something like that, they're probably gonna latch out.
Speaker 4 (11:14):
They never tried el smoke deal.
Speaker 6 (11:19):
All right. There was a lot of meat to it.
Speaker 5 (11:22):
I quite like.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Eating like a chicken neck, so I imagine a similar
to that, right.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
But you look, you look at a lot of the
ocean's creatures. They are very alien like. You know, there's
this fish, undiscovered fish that are deep deep deep Marianna Trench,
deep part of the ocean that they haven't scientists haven't
even seen yet.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
They're just living down on the dark.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
You know.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Every now and then, like a giant squared or some
like unknown giant like floppy fish washes up on shore
and everyone's like, hmm, where'd.
Speaker 5 (11:52):
You come from?
Speaker 6 (11:53):
Quite alien like freaky if you're down there, like angler fish.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
Have you seen those things? What's that with the little
are they the ones they have the little light on? Y?
Speaker 6 (12:08):
Yeah, they kind of look like kind of piranhas.
Speaker 5 (12:12):
I think that's just the tip of the deep ocean.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Absolutely, because you can't get they can't get deep enough
to even research.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
And if that's an indication of what's down there, don't
you don't want to know.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
That's why I'm like, swimming in the ocean. Oh you're
not an ocean swimmer, not really.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
Yeah, I get it.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
I get it, especially when they're like, hey, it's getting warmer,
sharks and stuff gonna swim around.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
There are some frightening looking fish down the bottom. You
know this is this is not even in the depths
that thing. Yeah, yeah, and they all look a bit
aggressive because I imagine if you can't see what you're
doing down there, you want to.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Have Yeah that's nasty, yeah, google.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
Yeah, crazy you But you like swimming the ocean bed,
don't mind.
Speaker 6 (12:58):
Yeah, I'm not like I'm not deep sea diving or
anything like that, though.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
I like like going on the back of a boat,
like wakeboarding or going on a biscuit. But then you
eventually fall off, right and the boat's got to come
back and get you.
Speaker 5 (13:13):
That's the most traumatic.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
He leaves a dangling you look down at it, it's dark,
and then something brushes past your league.
Speaker 6 (13:19):
I'm like, oh god, yeah, no, I agreed, but yeah,
that's the worst part.
Speaker 4 (13:24):
I understand that.
Speaker 6 (13:25):
But you imagine, like how I kind of think of
that time. You know, you're not actually there for that long.
Surely for someone to swim up from the one.
Speaker 5 (13:31):
Does it take for a shark to bite me in half?
Speaker 6 (13:33):
Oh, you're not long, but he's not.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
Yeah, I love those leigeons.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Or like, I just fought the shark mate, you know. Yeah,
every now and then it pops up on the news.
You thought, tussled around and it punched it in the face.
I'm not thinking about.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
That coming at me.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
I would be useless, so I'd just be like, tell
I guess it's Helldian, You're terrible way to go.
Speaker 4 (13:55):
Yeah. We spoke to a guy. Oh, he's betting the
film for an oar or something. Was he surfing or.
Speaker 6 (14:01):
A shark? Yeah, there was something he was.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
Yeah, he's like, you know what.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
You know, I like to think that the pain would
be so great you wouldn't feel it, you know, yeah, before.
Speaker 4 (14:12):
You felt anything.
Speaker 5 (14:13):
Yeah, yeah, grim.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
But the actually I imagine they said, Well, they do
say that your chance of hearing car accidents is far
more likely than being attacked.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
By a shark in the ocean. You're probably right, but
the stats.
Speaker 5 (14:25):
Are very true.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
You're not someone that no, I do like I would
only sleep in the swim in the shallows, right, But
it's more when I'm out on like a biscuit or
anything and people try and flip you off, and like,
do not flip me off?
Speaker 6 (14:38):
Oh really?
Speaker 5 (14:38):
So I don't want to dangle in the ocean if
you just.
Speaker 6 (14:41):
Momentially you wouldn't swim, So you wouldn't swim across one.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Point shit no quite God, no, don't get any ideas.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
Your chance of being attacked and killed by a shark
are one and three point seventy five million.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
Jeez, so nothing to worry about me.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
I was on a jet ski once near Waiki Island
in Auckland and there was at least like six hammerhead
sharks that were swimming underneath us.
Speaker 5 (15:09):
And I know I don't think they attack.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
But like I don't want to fall in and hang
out with them. That was bloody terrifying. Also, like the
hammerheads have other friends as sharks, you know they likely.
Speaker 5 (15:20):
To what's there other ones in there?
Speaker 4 (15:22):
You think?
Speaker 6 (15:22):
Once yeah, well maybe maybe?
Speaker 5 (15:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
I was like, oh my god, don't fall off now,
well you're gonna tell me that hammerheads?
Speaker 3 (15:30):
No, this is so your odds are so one in
three points seventy five million being attacked by a shark
odds being struck by lightning only one in fifteen thousand.
Speaker 5 (15:39):
So you're more likely to gain struck by lightning.
Speaker 6 (15:43):
Fifteen when dangling in the water for a while.
Speaker 4 (15:47):
Yeah, she's there. That put on perspective for you.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Yeah, okay, I'm still stuck on our hammerhead's dangerous And
there we go.
Speaker 6 (15:57):
That is today's Worldwide where we covered some ground as
you usual if you start.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
With it's not dangerous. In fact, the amounts are very
small so proable. Couldn't bite you anyway.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Really Yeah, okayty run he runs minds of these.
Speaker 6 (16:09):
We'll some stuff on the world where we'll be back
in tomorrow
