Speaker 1 (00:00):
Live from the Export Beer Gudin's studio and brought to you,
as always by export Oltra, the beer for here. This
is the Agenda Podcast for your Friday, the twenty sixth
of July.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
The Agenda Podcast, the home of Sporting Nonsense and clap Trap,
brought to you by Next Sport a Culture Morning.

Speaker 1 (00:17):
Heath, great posture this morning.

Speaker 3 (00:18):
Yeah, I'm sitting up after seeing the last video that
went out from the last thing where I'm like hunched
over like quasi modo about twenty five chins.

Speaker 1 (00:26):
We've said this before, just terrible lumbar support.

Speaker 4 (00:29):
These couches come on g lane terrible.

Speaker 3 (00:33):
These wouldn't be if you put this out on a burn,
they wouldn't be picked up.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
It's like your offer smoker room because no one actually
owns it. It's always just in the shittiest state. Yeah,
because no one's ever going to take Ownershi'll be like,
I'm gonna fix it. What we all do is sit
on this couch and be like, fuck, there's uncomfortable, and
then none of us go out do anything about it.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
Make Michael Boggs, the CEO of and said me do
five podcasts a week on these couches.

Speaker 4 (00:55):
The next thing, you know.

Speaker 3 (00:56):
You'd find a wonderful studio with a cafe environment.

Speaker 1 (00:59):
Yeah, I think of Simmy Brown had to take the
bus to work. All of our roads will be fixed,
I'll tell you what though.

Speaker 3 (01:05):
Auckland Transport, you know they are always bus and cycle lane.
Seen the size of the car park. All those assholes
are driving to work, are they?

Speaker 1 (01:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:11):
Oh my god, all of those assoles the thing and
get rid of your car park and then come to
me and tell me to get rid of my car.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
Yeah, that's right, all of the because they've revent the
whole bus system. You jump in your bus, great, then
you just sit. They don't have bus lanes, so you're
just sitting in the same traffic you would have been
in your own car, or standing more often than.

Speaker 4 (01:28):
Standing in your own filth.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
Every other country figured out trains over one hundred years ago.

Speaker 3 (01:33):
Yeah, well we did have light rail, didn't we. We
had the bloody trams, but then they took them out bloody.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
It's hey, I've got a little bit of advice that
I'd like to ask of you today. Oh yes, I
am commentating the Warriors tonight at eight pm.

Speaker 4 (01:47):
Ah.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
Yeah, it's on a Friday, payday, Friday two. Yeah, a
bit of excitement around the office, shit beers at lunchtime.
Last week I tried and failed to go home at lunchtime,
and then I'm back in for the commentary.

Speaker 4 (02:01):
Yeah, well you didn't make it home, or.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
I made it home, but way too late. I got
home at about seven, yeah, right, and then I was
back in at nine.

Speaker 4 (02:09):
Yeah, that's difficult, and.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
Summer religion that I was still drunk on the commentary.
I tony those But how do you play it? You're
a veteran of many commentaries.

Speaker 3 (02:18):
Oh god, it's the hardest thing in professional commentating. Is
a Friday, especially Friday, much harder than a Saturday, much harder.
And just the eight o'clock kick off, it just makes
it that a little bit harder because you could probably
pack yourself to keep it together till seven.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
You know when I turned into a pumpkin at around seven.

Speaker 4 (02:38):
Although I tell you what.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
Last week, that game, the Fiji and All Blacks game, Yeah,
that really got me because it was mid afternoon. Oh yeah,
and then I had a few drinks with it, and
then I was so confused because I figured it was
the middle of the night. But then I was going
out for dinner with some people and I was middle
of the night, Matt, and they were sort of early afternoon.
Just just got showered and putting some nice clothes on
and went out for dinner.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
This is the problem.

Speaker 4 (03:00):
I was turning that restaurant like a nightclub.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
I know. Yeah, well this is what happened last week
because the game was at ten. You know, on a Friday,
I show up a stagnoom and I for a folk
scale commentary.

Speaker 3 (03:14):
Well, I would say stick to your I think stick
to your exports. Yeah, you know, I'd stay away from
the top shelf and I'd definitely stay away from the
veno for sure.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah oh yeah, because I was getting into the six percenters.
Yeah yeah, I think you've just got to no dinner,
go about your work.

Speaker 4 (03:34):
But the problem is all your rules through out the window.
This is the problem.

Speaker 3 (03:37):
You have a rule that you go Like when I
was going to the rugby last week, I was like,
I'll just have one, but then one made me want
to have two, and you know, you have a drink,
then the drink has you next. You know, I'm not
the person I was that didn't want to drink. I'm
now a totally different person now that wants to drink.
You're now talking to mister Hyde. Yeah, it's not the

(03:58):
same thing. I want someone the active wants to ruin
my life for a joke. That's rather than trying to
make things better.

Speaker 1 (04:03):
It's exactly what happened to me last week because I
was like, right, I'm going to go home after this beer.
I'm going to go home after this beer. I'm going
to go home after this beer. And then I was like,
you know what, I've knocked off for the day anyway,
so I don't have to go home. I don't want.
I deserve it.

Speaker 4 (04:14):
I work hard. I deserve this.

Speaker 3 (04:17):
The other thing is, you know, because mainly me trying
to drink, this is just me telling it to pers
serving me.

Speaker 4 (04:23):
I'll say just one more.

Speaker 3 (04:25):
Yeah, I'm just always just saying just one more, Like
I don't care how many at the bar.

Speaker 4 (04:29):
Then it's just one more. It's like they are just.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
One more, just one more, just one more, they don't
care's just order the drink.

Speaker 4 (04:34):
You know, you're talking to yourself with that one more.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
I had Lawrence from the office sitting next to me
the whole afternoon to spin light. So when you gone
home after this on You said that five years ago.

Speaker 4 (04:43):
But I listened to your commentary you were you were fine,
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
I like to do it as well.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
I didn't know that it didn't strike me. I mean,
you were a little bit deflated at the end, but
there was probably you know, that.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
Was about part of the course. Yeah, I would say
to anyone listening, you know how it's so unsettling to
hear the sound of your own voice recorded. Yeah, it
never goes away, and broadcasting, by the way, it's so
much worse to hear yourself wasted. Oh god, and it is.
It is the punishment you need. I paid my penance
on Monday morning because I had to clip a few
videos out of the commentary. And I just sit there.

Speaker 3 (05:15):
You can tell, oh boy, can you do? And you
can sniff your own bullshit like no one else can.
And you you put on pretense when you've been drinking.
You cand of get a bit of a not you me, No,
me too. Yeah, but I get this kind of voice,
and I'm making these jokes and I think I'm all that.

Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yeah, I think I'm all that more than normal. My
confidence made is full. Yeah, I'm trying jokes that don't land. Yeah,
it was mentioned on the on the text, and thanks
to all of you who sent those through.

Speaker 3 (05:41):
It's great to have the support when you're in it
in a difficult time, having drunk all afternoon and trying
to do a commentary.

Speaker 4 (05:45):
But yeah, look, tell you what the question you asked me.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
I've been working on it my whole life and I've
never managed to quite work out how you handle that commentary.

Speaker 4 (05:56):
And I'll tell you what.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
To be fair, we're not getting a great example from
the top and the acc because absolutely not. G Lane
will often come in an absolute steam train and commit
horror intoce atrocities on the air.

Speaker 1 (06:08):
There'll be some There'll be some afternoons where you know,
you will be at the bar having a having a
beer on a Friday afternoon and I'll turn the loone
and just be like, jeez, made, I've got to commentate.
I might, I might bounce it. I guess Look, I
think your only way through is just a drink through
into the commentary that's top down. So yeah, okay, I'm
going to play I think a few waders, a bit
of a feed.

Speaker 3 (06:26):
She'll be right. Yeah, you'll tune into that commentary to
find out if the case assa, what will be will be?
You know, you know you're in the Yeah, you're on
the tides of you know that. You just go with
the time.

Speaker 4 (06:36):
Yeah, yeah, just don't fight it, don't swim against the universt.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
We can't. Yeah, you can't change the ways. You can
only choose which ones to ride. That's right, Yeah, towers them. Yeah,
I wanted another bit of advice. I wanted to ask
you or get your take on as changing room etiquette,
because you can probably tell you could probably even hear it.
I've been going to the gym quite a lot lately. Yeah, Mills. Yeah,
go over to Lis Mills. I am quite aware when

(07:01):
I walk into that gym that I am the least
attractive person in there every time I walk in. It's
one of those hot people gyms, right, I got no
right to be there. But it's also just across the
road from work, so I'm like, yeah, I kind of
go to a middle aged gym, so that. Yeah, but
then I also think if I go there for long enough,
then I will become a hot person.

Speaker 5 (07:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (07:18):
Yeah, you know, they're just people that have been there
longer than you have.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
That's right.

Speaker 4 (07:21):
Yeah, at one stage the other gym.

Speaker 3 (07:23):
Yeah that's right, you're the walking before photo for all
the after photos.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
A big time. But anyway, so when over there went
pretty hard since some pber's it's not about that. Came
back and I shower here at work. There are the
situation at work is there are about fifteen showers. I
don't know if you've ever been into these changing rooms
I have. There's like fifteen showers, but the area to
get changed is so small.

Speaker 4 (07:48):
Within the shower.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
No, well yes, but then also our oh yea yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
you can only fit about three people and yeah right yeah,
so you know, I've had an awkward interaction with one
of the guys from the Herald where we held hands
in our andies at one point. Yeah, that's not getting changed.
But there is a guy that goes down there and
he is full stark naked. He goes full naked, and

(08:09):
I just wanted to know what is the etiquette around
going nude in a shared locker room because this is
a building that has about five different companies in it. Yeah,
we don't know each other. Like if it's a sports team,
I get it, but this guy is he'll walk in
get full nude and then sort of duck around, fire
off a text, organize his clothes. Then he'll go and

(08:30):
have a shower. This is all full nude. By the way,
he'll have a yarn with you, he'll look you in
the eye, stuck out, and then he goes running. Hey
is he running? Oh god, I've sort of repressed it.
I'm sure he's not giving him a great account of himself.
He's just biked into work.

Speaker 4 (08:46):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, So I haven't I respect that.

Speaker 3 (08:49):
I mean, if someone's engineering a situation so they can
be nude to show off what they've got, I don't
respect that. But someone that's running like two testes and
a split testing on top and there's still nude, I'm.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
Like, you're restricting.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
Well, I just respect that because it's like you you're
being nude because it's more practical. It's not about sort
of you know, you know, yeah, you're not showing off,
you know.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
Yeah. But the thing that really gets with it is
when he gets out of the shower. So he's obviously
in the shower, he's drying himself. Then he comes out
and he's holding the towel in his hand and he
walks out nude, it would be easier to wrap it around, yeah,
your waist, even your shoulders. So at that point, I'm

(09:31):
like he's making a point here. He's like, yeah, it
would be easier for me. I'm gonna make it harder
on myself. Yeah, just so I can walk out here.

Speaker 3 (09:38):
Yeah, essentially, because I just got to the gym called
body Tech, and it was very pro nudity. It seemed
like dudes would be like shaving and they'll be fletely nude,
you know, like you know, they'll be there, they'll do
all the ablutions in the nude and get everything they
need to do in the nude, and then then get
dressed afterwards. And I started to feel like I was
the bad guy because I'd be wearing a towel. Yeah,

(10:00):
you know, like, like, what's wrong with me? I'm you know,
am I being judgmental of these people?

Speaker 6 (10:05):
You know?

Speaker 4 (10:05):
What am my? What am I doings? So I don't know, but.

Speaker 3 (10:09):
I think I think you're allowed to I think it's
the I think you're allowed to be nude.

Speaker 1 (10:13):
I think you are.

Speaker 4 (10:14):
I think and it's a changing room situation.

Speaker 3 (10:17):
You're allowed to be nude, I mean, but you're also
allowed not to be nude.

Speaker 1 (10:21):
Yeah, yeah, it goes both ways.

Speaker 4 (10:24):
I just both ways.

Speaker 1 (10:25):
But the biggest problem that I have obviously the walking
out of the shower holding the towel. That's egregious. But
then I'm now getting changed next to my man and
we are like, honestly, we've got about it would be
like a four square meter area, yeah, change, There'll be
three or four dudes in there, you know, and at
that point we're touching buttocks.

Speaker 4 (10:43):
Yeah yeah, and I don't want that. Yeah, No, that
is interesting.

Speaker 3 (10:46):
I don't know what the ediquette is and it's going
to be it's getting beaten out. I think definitely people
are getting less nude at gym's. I think nudity is
going away a lot quicker. I know that people that
have been to boarding school have a very different view
of it. It's although you were boarding stol but yeah,
and you're not necessarily going as neud as you did
at boarding school.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
Well, but if I was with the boarding school guys,
that's a different thing. Yeah, because it's.

Speaker 3 (11:07):
A received you know that the conditions are agreed agreed upon.

Speaker 1 (11:12):
Yeah, yeah, and there's a bond with those the same
with the rugby team. Fine with that, I just had
a thought, like different thought.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
I was at the Gymmy stands like, I keep going
home and showing at home what am I doing?

Speaker 4 (11:21):
Shout the gym free, hot water, free, soap, yeap? What
am I doing?

Speaker 3 (11:25):
I love about one hundred meters from my gym, and
I'm walking out the door. Just need to have my
clothes in a bag and use the facilities I'm paying for.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
What I would say is make sure if you're doing that,
that you're washing your towel in between workouts, because I've
just become aware that I probably I actually can't remember
the last time I washed my gym towel. Yeah, it
might not have been this calendar year. And I've only
become aware of that because I've broken out in a
rash this week and I'm like, is it because I
keep putting my towel on the floor of a sheer

(11:52):
bathroom and then drawing myself with it the next day? Probably?

Speaker 4 (11:56):
Probably it's Probably it probably is. So that's just a
high gien PSA.

Speaker 1 (11:59):
But yeah, I think I think if you're in a
group where you're like a rugby team, boarding school, whatever,
you know, the people, Yeah, I'm okay with that. If
it's even within the same company. I'm kind of okay
with that if you just straight up don't know each other.

Speaker 3 (12:13):
Yeah, yeah, no, I think you might. I think you
might have a point there, But are you going to
say anything? God, no, put your pants on, mate, I
didn't you want to talk? The other day, I was
sitting down and he said, Matte, how you going? And
I was sitting down, He's standing up. I was like,
we're not doing this, man, I'm Eige level here.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
Oh that's good. So thank you very much for your
I'm sure some people have some feelings on this. They
send them through in your and your voice smails. We're
going to take a quick break. When we come back,
I've got a heated debate. I'd like to also run
past you, so quick break will be right back. But
just before we do, Helenstein's VP, we want to hook
you up with an exclusive opportunity to win VIP Warriors Experience.

(12:51):
You'll score tickets, cash money, food beverages, vouchers to be
kitted out by the legends at Helenstein. So it takes
VP to three two, three six to be there at
VIP thanks to the acc in Helenston's all right, the
Olympics are underway ahead of the actual opening ceremony, which
is tomorrow morning our time at sixteen.

Speaker 3 (13:11):
I know, how gutting for the men sevens. They're out
of the Olympics before the Olympics even start. Yeah, they're gone.
Do they have to come home now?

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Oh god?

Speaker 4 (13:18):
Let them hang out in the village and have a
good time.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (13:21):
I mean, what's that guy Andrew and u stuff. Yeah,
dangerously good looking man.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
He's done like four acls or something. He finally got
to go to the Olympics. And now they're out.

Speaker 4 (13:30):
I mean they smashed South Africa and pool play and then.

Speaker 3 (13:34):
Just just didn't fire. And the fire they looked so
freaking good. What's that guy Moses Moses Leo? Oh yeah,
god he's got some speed. Yeah, no they did. It's
just I mean that's how sports goes. Yeah, and especially sevens.
I think sevens is volatile. Is volatile. You know, you
get the break, you get, you get an overlap, you know,
you run a couple of length of the fields and

(13:55):
intercept the teach. When you have rugby, Yeah, it is
anyone could beat anyone. Yeah, but I mean I feel bad.
Analysis I came into my radio show, and I said
the sevens against South Africa, we are going to win
the goal we were, yeah, we look, We've.

Speaker 4 (14:08):
Never looked so good. And the end.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
Yeah, that's how she goes. She's a cruel sport. But
we have announced our flag bearers who are going to
be Joe Ali and Aaron Gate, who I didn't realize
cyclist cyclist, Yeah, I didn't realize. He was at the
twenty twelve Olympic Games. Wow, bronze middleist there. Yeah. Wow,
she's most decorated Commonwealth athlete as well. And then Jolie

(14:32):
is the sailor as well. She was at the twenty
twelve Olympics too, So two very decorated athletes in their
own right. We're talking yesterday on the podcast that Lebron
James has been anointed the flag bearer for the US.
Oh yes, we're like, we just give him our flag too,
and we'll tell uzbiker stant Hey, we'll swap and we'll
just draft off the back of the US. He has

(14:52):
been you know, because they the basketball team, they select
all of these amazing players and every player is like
on the superstar of this on the go to guy.
But when it comes down to it and they need
to win. Lebron James rattled off eleven points to save
a win the other day. And he's forty years old,
he's still by far the best player on that team,
and you find out it nutcrunch time. But all of

(15:15):
these memes have now started coming out about how he's
the greatest basketball player of all time, blah blah blah.
I saw a tweet that said he is arguably the
greatest American of all time. Right, someone said I've got
him over ab blinken.

Speaker 3 (15:29):
Well, Lebron does a bit of charity work, doesn't He's
he's got he's got a He's got to be the
greatest full time. You need to both be excel at
what you're doing but also excel as a human being,
don't you.

Speaker 1 (15:39):
Yeah, and yeah he does. He's set up schools in
his hometown and things like that. He donates a lot
of money to charity. But just thinking of like who's
the greatest of all time? The fact that they've got
him over a blinket, it made me think, what's in
New Zealand equivalent? Like would you have Jonah over Edmund Hillary? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (15:56):
Oh that yeah, Well that's a good, good comparison. Isn't
it as differ a good comparison like who is the
greatest New Zealander of all times? Have you guys ever
done that? On the Mett and Jerry Show. No, I
haven't actually, but it's a difficult one to to work out.

Speaker 4 (16:09):
I mean, what have you done? The greatest New Zealander
of all time?

Speaker 3 (16:13):
Might be just a community leader that has just done
a whole lot of stuff quietly in the background and
changed in millionaires people's lives.

Speaker 1 (16:20):
It might be I don't know, some around Butterman.

Speaker 3 (16:22):
Yeah, it might be just someone that's running a community
boxing gym or something and he's changed a million people's
lives just quietly with a butterfly effect.

Speaker 1 (16:30):
Man petech out and we stalkland. What about like Ernest Rutherford?

Speaker 3 (16:35):
Yeah, well, I mean I don't know, like he did
split the Adam, and the splitting the Adam, you know,
fired up Oppenheimer and his mates and now now we
were at so there was some sliding doors there if
he hadn't done that. Although I interviewed this guy, he's
a very famous Brian Cox, famous UK physicist, and he

(16:57):
visited you know, he's from Manchester University where Brutherford went
to and he said, you run a geig account over
Rutherford's desk.

Speaker 4 (17:04):
It's still still because because back then they didn't really.

Speaker 3 (17:07):
Know what they were doing, so they keep his memorial
desk all all all sealed off because there was so
much radiation operating around that guy.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
There was a lot. There's a lot of those stories
about girls using the stuff as nail polish and like
lip gloss in that. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (17:22):
Yeah, Mercury chasing quicksilver they called it, chasing it around
the table for fun.

Speaker 1 (17:26):
Yeah, yeah, but yeah, I don't know who. I feel
like there's reeks of another bracket showdown where we put
all of the like sixty four New Zealanders.

Speaker 4 (17:34):
Shit is a hard one.

Speaker 1 (17:36):
Keith versus Harold?

Speaker 3 (17:37):
Is it someone like Willi Apiata because you know Charlie Upham,
Charlie Upham, you know, great heroism, Yeah yeah, and then
humble when they get home.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
Thingy verse props. Boy, Yeah, you know, the Harold versus
Constable Keith. There'd be so many good grudge matches that
you could have. Lundy v. Bain obviously being there as well.

Speaker 3 (17:59):
Yeah, anyone going up against Lundy or Baine would hope
to win their round if you've got Sir Edmund Hillary
up against Lundy, Yeah, and Lundy goes through to the
next round, he would though, I acc people are voting.

Speaker 1 (18:09):
Yeah, that's right, that's the problem Jake the muss Although
then do you have a problem where Jake the Musk
could conceivably come up against Queen b Beatrice Farmina? Is
that a problem?

Speaker 5 (18:19):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (18:19):
Yeah, so Steven Adams, Yes, Stephen vs. Valerie?

Speaker 1 (18:23):
Yeah, I think this this wrenks of a bit of
a bracket for the SEC, doesn't It's good?

Speaker 4 (18:27):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (18:28):
Who I think Steven Adams versus Ernest Rutherford? You like
trying to work it out, like, how do we compare
these two? How many rebounds to Yeah? What was any
double doubles did mness Rutherford career earnings? Steven Adams is
up over one hundred million US now chances of completely

(18:48):
setting off a chain of events that destroy the entire
planet Rutherford, He's got He's got you there.

Speaker 1 (18:52):
He's got them hands down. Yeah. I think that we
could compile a good list of some of the best.
We even sat down on the office man Joe Jury
this morning and just blast of a couple out there.
Jason Gunn versus Party Far Away.

Speaker 3 (19:03):
Coincidentally, I'm about to shoot a TV commercial All Day
to Day with Jason Gunn. I'm off out to it's
Jason Gunn. I'll ask him ask him for me. Thanks,
John too Good? Was Dave dobbyin Michael Hill versus the
Mad Butcher?

Speaker 1 (19:18):
You know?

Speaker 3 (19:19):
Oh ship? That's a that's a yeah. I think I
think I think the Mad Butcher might get there.

Speaker 1 (19:24):
Yeah, I think you would to, particularly with our audience.
Are in Van Dyke versus Bernice Mini Oh ship? Yeah?
These are Toughern's, Richie d C you know, Hills Bears
versus Mike McRoberts, the Nick Minute Guy versus Doctor Ashley Bloomfield. Like,
there's a lot out there, and I think I think
we need to put this put together a bracket and
then we'll vote down to find out who's the greatest
New Zealander of all time?

Speaker 3 (19:45):
What was the whale thing many years ago? The whale
on the beach thing? Who did that? It was the dolphin? Yeah,
I can't remember what it was. There was the otter
that escaped, ye Jin the ottit? Yeah, I think Jim
the Otter versus Shriek the sheep. I mean we moving
into the animal kingdom.

Speaker 1 (20:01):
There Trick the sheep versus Dolly the sheep, the first
cloned sheep from New Zealand as well. Yeah, the Canterbury
panther versus the Hearst eagle versus the Fiordland moose. You know,
we're getting into cryptosology this. Yeah, but still but I think, yeah, okay,
all right, I'll work across the weekend. If this has
triggered anything in New dm us send us in a voicemail.
We'll put this bracket together, start doing it next week.

(20:22):
We are in a roundabout way still talking about the Olympics,
the dirty cheating Canucks. They beat us. Yeah this morning
two one. Yeah, so the drone worked.

Speaker 3 (20:31):
I was thinking about this, so I could fly a
drone over Richard Carhoi's house. But it wouldn't tell me
anything about being really good looking.

Speaker 7 (20:38):
And I think that was the same thing that the
Canadians are doing. There's nothing that the New Zealanders could
teach us about football, if you know what I mean.
It's like there was no information there they could take out.

Speaker 3 (20:49):
Because it's our strategy as nine at the back, booted
as far away as we can get it to the
Koli boot it down the field and hope it doesn't
come back for a couple of minutes.

Speaker 1 (20:57):
I tell you what the biggest fuck you move from
our team would be is to film their training and
send it to Canada. There you go. You don't have
to spied us everything we're about to do and then win.
Unfortunately we lost, So yeah, that's obviously.

Speaker 3 (21:11):
Well were they won the gold medal last time. Everly ranked,
we're like right down the bottom.

Speaker 1 (21:17):
So it turns out crime pace.

Speaker 3 (21:18):
But you don't expect that from the Canadians A to
put up their hands as the first story of the Olympics.
Next cheats, like if you were running the sweep steak
on that. I mean, Canada being outed as treats with
cheats was low on the low on the chances.

Speaker 1 (21:30):
Did not have that on my bingo card A Russia
even at this Olympics probably not there'll.

Speaker 4 (21:35):
Be Russians there, but IOC yeah whatever he is.

Speaker 1 (21:38):
Yeah, so yeah, a bit disappointing for that, but I
don't think anyone expected us to win that one. Anyway.
We're gonna take one more quick breaks before we do.
The Snacker Chaneesy sports scholarship is really starting to heat up.
G Lane is meeting people and parking lots across the
country to dish out the scholarship. So if you want
to be the next one, text chip to three two
three six to win the Snacker Changey Sports Scholarship quick
break and we will be back with yours please, yours please.

Speaker 2 (22:04):
Brought you by Leader Home of.

Speaker 8 (22:06):
The LA.

Speaker 1 (22:08):
Just the five to get through today. The other day
Heath we did twelve and I think we decided collectively
that's too many, that there's too many, a bit of discretion.
Today we've only got the five. First one here call
it yours please. Jeez.

Speaker 6 (22:22):
Sorry, I don't know what happened there. I think the
iHeart radio music just started playing. Anyway, feeling pretty rubbish,
put on the bloody the acec agenda and the first
thing that comes up is Pugo eff Trainer. I was like,
that's fucking right, Senor brought back the good stuff. What
a champion. I know, I know we're all games tomorrow morning,
so I think funk that shuits back all right? And

(22:45):
fuck South Canterbury.

Speaker 4 (22:47):
It's so good that the cold rex. Oh my god.

Speaker 3 (22:50):
Although oh yeah, I was back on a lot on
the day before John Key bandatt and then now it's
back and the only problem is it is it's selling
out your future. You don't get any better when you're
on the pseudo of for drink, you know what I mean,
kicking it down the road, kicking down there. It gives
you the energy and clears you up enough to get
through that day, but you will have to spend that
day getting sick at some point, you know, like if

(23:11):
you've got a Friday you have to get through, then
this Saturday is going to be that that Friday to
out of the sickness.

Speaker 1 (23:17):
You know.

Speaker 3 (23:17):
It's like it's a it's a delay. Yeah, I mean,
it's like if you took a line of cocaine, it'll
get you through the night and keep you awake if
you're tired, but you will you will be tired again
or more so afterwards.

Speaker 1 (23:30):
All like our drinking is borrowing all of tomorrow's happiness. Yeah,
that's exactly what it is.

Speaker 4 (23:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (23:35):
Yeah, you want to feel really really happy right now
and not care about any of your problems. You can
have that, but they will all come back times ten tomorrow,
That's right. All like trying to drink you out of
a hangover again. You're just kicking it.

Speaker 1 (23:46):
Down the road.

Speaker 3 (23:47):
Yeah, sometimes you just go I'm gonna and you know that.
But final analogy.

Speaker 1 (23:51):
Would be anyone who's ever taken emmodium.

Speaker 3 (23:53):
Oh yeah, yeah that Yeah, that's just putting a finger
in the dike that thought I was doing.

Speaker 1 (24:02):
But Lane's been on the sodo this week. That's always
been fighting through not the coll here yours.

Speaker 5 (24:08):
Hey fellas, I know your sports are Jason and Jon's
not a quick question. Why is there no Hoak frequencies
in Queenstown anyway?

Speaker 3 (24:22):
It feels like you're doing some of Edmund from over
at Radiohachi. Well, it's a lot of things. Frequencies cost
a lot of money, and also Queenstown is a transient
population of tourists coming through, so it's hard to do
a lot of sales based around radio there. We do
have a frequency in one Aca and you can get
that sort of right over the Crown Range.

Speaker 4 (24:43):
You can get you can get us an arrow Town
pretty much.

Speaker 3 (24:46):
But a lot of people listen on iHeartRadio was I
was doing a vineyard tour a couple of weeks ago,
and he was down there and went to the Gibson
Valley and and this lovely lady came up and said
her and here and a boyfriend listened on the iHeart
radio big for so you know you can get it.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
You can get it. There are ways to get it. Yeah,
and get it. I always to find it. But there's
also no frequency in South Canterbury. Ah, that's and so
when I first moved to Auckland and got a job
at Radio Hodaki, my mom thought I was working for
a EWE station. She'd never heard of it that broadcast
down there. So yeah, but yeah, ridiculous that they cost money.
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (25:21):
Yeah, I can't see the millions of dollars you have
to spend on an if M frequency is going to
last much longer in the internet area. Yeah, where does
that money go? Who gets that?

Speaker 4 (25:31):
Yeah? No one knows. The government goes into rocones.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
Another call here, yours please.

Speaker 8 (25:36):
Fellas Hey, just wondering what's the Tigers game Friday night
being a sell out again? Has it ever been a
team go through the whole NRL season selling out every
single home game? Because I think there's only two more left,
and fuck it would be good, wouldn't it sell them all?

Speaker 6 (25:54):
Out? Right?

Speaker 3 (25:56):
I mean, eals game's already pretty much. Yeah, close to sellout,
so to nights one is He's right there.

Speaker 1 (26:04):
Two more so, we've had ten home games this season,
sold them all out, Eels, and then I forget who
the other one is. I expect that they'll both sell
out as well. Oh Bulldogs is out? Yeah yeah, Bulldogs. Yeah,
I expect that they will both sell out. And I
did do a little bit of research for this podcast.
That would be the first time that a team has
ever sold out every one of their home games in

(26:25):
the season, and so far we are on a fourteen
game sellout streak dating back to last year.

Speaker 3 (26:32):
Yeah, because when we lost the last one, I set
to his friends and I said, oh, Les's we'll be
able to get tickets easier to go to the game.

Speaker 4 (26:37):
And she was like, it's sold out.

Speaker 3 (26:39):
Yeah. Yeah, well that's true because people and people. Yeah,
it's more than that. It's more than just the winning,
isn't it now. Yeah, Well, this is the thing. There's
always been.

Speaker 1 (26:49):
There's always been a massive Warriors faithful who even through
the doldrums, they would come.

Speaker 4 (26:53):
It never really got below eight thousand people.

Speaker 1 (26:55):
That's right, Yeah, and even it'll be it'll be like
a Sunday afternoon raining sideways, and you know there'd still
be fifteen thousand people there to watch Sewn Johnson slough
a conversion from the sideline to cut the deficit to forty.

Speaker 3 (27:10):
You know, well, someone told me that eight thousands about
the break even point. If they get eight eight thousand
at home throughout all the games, then then that's what
they need to do to be working as a club.

Speaker 1 (27:21):
Should they be printing money?

Speaker 4 (27:22):
This printing money?

Speaker 3 (27:23):
Yeah, I mean, so all you've got to do is
have the cultural impact that people love going along and
then you know, you know it's always going to sound
I mean, but I mean, how many games in a
row have we said it's the must win. It's actually
Mass was making a good point on we've gotta be
careful with the must win because there's always a mathematical way.

Speaker 4 (27:40):
You can get through.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (27:43):
I think probably even if we lose against the Tigers,
there's probably some way where some people above us ship
the bed for the last five games. And you know
what I mean, Yeah, I mean I don't know, I
can't even work those out. No need, So we really
really need to win this one. We really really needed
to win it last week where we're really really really
need to win it.

Speaker 1 (28:01):
I said it on the podcast used today. I think
I just want us to win this one so we
can just have one week we're leaving.

Speaker 3 (28:08):
Yeah, well, I've got a theory about this because our
last is a bye. If we win, you know, to
get through into the top eight. We're in quite a
good unique position because you know, you end up in
the arts end of the top eight, then you don't
have that that that rest. So at least we'd have
the rest game before we went into it. We're actually
set up. We're actually set up for it for a
run right through ten ten ten wins and we win

(28:30):
the thing.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
Yeah, Yeah, you're right, because the advantage of coming like
first or the second is that you then get a
buy because the thing's quite convoluted. Yeah, and we basically
get that anyway because of because of the buye.

Speaker 4 (28:43):
So is this the stars aligning dolphins?

Speaker 3 (28:49):
That's that's one that might be a difficult one anyway.

Speaker 1 (28:53):
But anyway, Yeah, this this would be a NRL first
if we sold out every one of the home games.
A call here yours please.

Speaker 9 (29:01):
Every Friday Cants. It's Mike Ox along here. I was
just thinking about these halftime shows that we have that
like the Warriors and all that, and how boring they
are when it's just the same bullshit fucking light show.
What if we were to implement Manya's halfback sports day
the is for the halftime shows. I think they'll be
quite thrilling for the audience and we can actually see

(29:22):
if these games actually work or for the rules set. Anyways,
unfucked South canabry thank you?

Speaker 1 (29:29):
Yeah. I don't know which one of them because a
lot of them are like sports related, so it'll be
like bringing a guy out of the stands to bowl
the next over. Yeah, yeah, the next over, or turn
the field sideways for soccer, or attach a hoop to
the crossbar and rugby. I don't know that they would
work as a as a halftime show. I think there's
more changes to actual sports. But I did once in

(29:52):
another life as the promost person for Hodaki. We got
pitched from KFC. They wanted to promote their Crusher and
they wanted to do a halftime show. I've got it.
You run from one end of the field to the other.
At halfway, Ruben Wiki's gonna crush a tackle you at
the other end. You've got a sights that Judith crusher
Collins and then and then whoever loses gets their car crushed.

Speaker 4 (30:18):
That's good.

Speaker 3 (30:19):
Yeah, maybe that could be the half time Yeah, maybe
that could. I mean, I love when there's a mascot race.
That always gets me going be found a mascot race. Also,
like when you have the people dressed up on the
bag inflatable sumo. Yeah, costumes smashing each other.

Speaker 4 (30:31):
That's good.

Speaker 3 (30:32):
Yeah. I don't mind people in a zorb, you know. Yeah,
I don't mind as orb at all. I don't mind
a race.

Speaker 1 (30:38):
As long as there's an opportunity for someone to humiliate themselves,
we're generally happy enough with it.

Speaker 4 (30:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (30:43):
So yeah, but I reckon that it's tough work as
a person that's done the halftime shows as a radio host.
Tough yecker out there. It's because for you, there's a
huge amount of people there. But you just got to
remember that no one gives a shit about no one's watching,
no one's watching you, and no one cares. Everyone's off
getting somebody to eat or thinking about or talking.

Speaker 1 (31:01):
And yeah, we had a I wasn't there for it,
but we had a howler of a promo where the
idea was a burger was going to be dropped from
a drone, but Ben Hurley was seeing it. But for
whatever reason, they couldn't fix the burger to the drone
or the drone crashed or something.

Speaker 4 (31:15):
I feel like I was there for this, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (31:18):
And so in the end Heurley, just thinking on his feet,
just picked the burger up and threw it. Someone had
to try and catch it. There was enough, there was
another game. I was out. It was like a woman's
tea twenty and they brought the worker keeper out at
the change of innings to try and set the world
record for the highest catch as well as an eaton Park.

Speaker 3 (31:37):
Yeah, and the and it would fall so far away
from her, it was swirling, yeah, and then it would
just land ten meters away, and the m secret going,
I'll give her one more try, and everyone in the crowds,
oh god, because she had to run so far and
then die because it was was someone hadn't.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
Counted in that, I know, when he hadn't tried it. Yeah. Yeah.
So it's like we're going to drop it from above
Eden Park and it's like there's this howling gale. She
can't she can't track this thing. The drone's not sitting
still in the air. The height was the least of
the problems. That was how far away it was for
just humiliated. I wasn't here for that one as well.

Speaker 4 (32:12):
Yeah, I was like, please stop, just please stop doing this.

Speaker 1 (32:15):
No more, no more. I reckon, we could come up
with a good halftime show. We'll put our brains to it.
I think we've got one more caller here, two.

Speaker 3 (32:24):
More flood the state, flood the stadium and go full
gladiated with the ships.

Speaker 1 (32:28):
Yeah. Oh, I'd love that. Every April Folds they put
out of an article that they're going to host the
World Surfing leg at eating part.

Speaker 6 (32:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (32:36):
Yeah, it gets me, got me, It got me. Last
year I was like, wow, they got a ship. Okay, yeah,
but I mean I can kind of believe that because
you have those artificial surf things. You know, it's in
the realms of possibility. You know, there's a there's a
wave pool in Mount Albert, you know.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
Why not? All right, that'll do us for today. We
knocked this thing on the head. Keep an eye on
this feed later on, we'll have the a SEC Sports
book out as well. Enjoy weekend Heath and Price the
next week you Tominoir and you know, up the Worst,
Up the Worst.
