Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Hodaki Big Show.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
Thanks to Craveworthy Street Food.

Speaker 3 (00:05):
Freshly made with Reburger.

Speaker 4 (00:09):
Welcome to the Hodaki Big Show.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
With Jason Hoyt, Mike Minogue and Keezy. Oh, g'day, you
mad bastards. Great to have you company this Tuesday afternoon.
It's the 1st of September, 2026. And you, my friends,
as always, listening to the Big Show, brought to you
by Reburger.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
Beef, chicken, vegan and vegetarian options available. Reburger are redefining
the norm.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
We're going to need a bigger burger. Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum.
Good stuff. G'day, Mogi, you stallion. How's life?

Speaker 4 (00:49):
Going pretty grousey, you mad dog, you sick son of
a bee in there. I'm back having my bad sleeps, fellas.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
Oh, no.

Speaker 4 (00:57):
Hard to get to sleep? Wake up, can't get back
to sleep.

Speaker 1 (00:59):
Yeah. No good.

Speaker 4 (01:01):
No good.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
It's not good when you wake up and then can't
get back to.

Speaker 4 (01:06):
Also not good when you lie there and you can't
get to.

Speaker 5 (01:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:10):
And then you also can't get back to.

Speaker 3 (01:12):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:12):
But neither of them are great.

Speaker 5 (01:14):
No.

Speaker 4 (01:14):
How are you going, Keezy?

Speaker 3 (01:16):
Yeah, pretty good, fellas. Had a pretty chill day, which
is nice. And before the show, I went and had
a solo. Hoity J.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
Hot Pop. Yeah, man. And now I am very full. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:26):
And all sorts of things are happening inside me.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
Yeah, good. Yeah. But as you said in the chat there, Keezy,
you're a professional.

Speaker 3 (01:33):
And it won't affect my broadcasting.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
And you won't allow the inferno in your bowels and
your stomach at the moment to interrupt. That's right.

Speaker 4 (01:42):
What we're doing here. But it did interrupt you last
week on Friday because, of course, you had Reburgers.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
Oh, that's right.

Speaker 4 (01:48):
You had about nine kilos of that, and you were
just like, oh, I don't know why I'm so tired.
You just had 2,000 calories in about eight minutes.

Speaker 3 (01:56):
Yeah, it was delicious.

Speaker 1 (01:57):
Are you sleepy or just burning?

Speaker 3 (02:00):
Just burning.

Speaker 5 (02:01):
Yeah, okay.

Speaker 3 (02:01):
To be honest, I feel alive.

Speaker 5 (02:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:03):
It's like I've swallowed lava.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
But it was so yummy.

Speaker 4 (02:07):
How are you, Jase?

Speaker 1 (02:08):
Yeah, I'm good, thanks. So, strangely enough, Mogi... Guess what
time I woke up this morning. Go on, guess it.
7 a.m. No. 8.30. 8. Yes.

Speaker 4 (02:19):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
And it was my turn on coffee, so I promptly
went into the kitchen, burnt my wife's coffee, and took
it into her. You know why?

Speaker 4 (02:27):
Because you're a backbone?

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
Hey, man, what's coming up on the show?

Speaker 1 (02:36):
What's happening on The Big Show with Old Mogul?

Speaker 4 (02:39):
Here on Hauraki, we only run the best competitions in
the whole wide world, and that's why we're doing wars
or cars. Would you rather go along and see the Warriors, hopefully,
at the grand final? It will be the grand final, Keezy,
no matter what. Yeah. Or go to Bathurst. Big decision.
Stay tuned for the queue to call and give us
a bell on 0800 Hauraki. Also got an update on

(03:01):
Keezy's Pigeon.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 4 (03:04):
Keezy's pigeon. Now, we haven't had an update for a
couple of weeks. The first couple of weeks, shock and bastard.
Last couple of weeks, Keezy's lost all interest, apparently.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
He has been very quiet on that front. I've been
a bit concerned with Keezy on all wings looking over
his beak with me, Keezy.

Speaker 4 (03:19):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (03:19):
Yeah, yeah. Well, I'll update you on why that is.

Speaker 4 (03:21):
I haven't heard his name mentioned around the office at all.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
Neither have I.

Speaker 4 (03:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
Good.

Speaker 4 (03:26):
And coming up next, I've got a bone to pick.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
Yeah, good stuff, man.

Speaker 4 (03:29):
I'm fuming. God, I'm fuming.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
How bad is it? Oh, fuming. Surely it's not that bad.

Speaker 4 (03:34):
It's just somebody bringing shame on the big show again. Oh, God.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
Oh, no. Bloody pugs. Here's Lincoln Park. Cheers.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
The Hodaki Big Show. Weekdays from 4 on Radio Hodaki.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
Faith no more there on the Hodaki Big Show. This
Tuesday afternoon, the time is 12 minutes past 4 o'clock.

Speaker 4 (03:55):
Fellas, I've got a bone to pick. Last week, I
was lucky enough to be invited along as a very
important person, a special guest.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
VIP, can I say, Mogi?

Speaker 4 (04:11):
You may, you may.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
That's what it stands for, yeah.

Speaker 4 (04:15):
For the opening night of Cirque Alice, Cirque du Soleil.
They have a whole bunch of different shows that go
around the world. I've been to a few of them,
and this one was at the Civic. Keezy, you talked
about it last night on What's On The TV with
me and Mogi. And you were there, and that's part
of the problem, or a lot of the problem. Now,
it's an incredible event, this thing. But when you go

(04:37):
along to an opening night of something, it's really important
that you dress for the occasion. especially when you're at
sort of a venue as esteemed and historic as the
Civic Theatre here in downtown Auckland City, Jase. You've spent
a lot of time there.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
Oh, she's a majestic old lady.

Speaker 4 (04:57):
So there on the invitation, it said quite clearly that
you were to dress as if in an Alice Wonderland.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
Oh.

Speaker 4 (05:08):
Oh, yeah, nice.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 (05:10):
It's very clear, isn't it? Dress up. So I went
home from the radio, and then I got changed into
a beautiful suit. And then made my way along. Both
my wife and my daughter were dressed up for the occasion.
Then I arrive, and my phone buzzes as I'm taking
my seat in the stalls, front and centre of the
stage there. And it's from old Keezy, and he sent

(05:32):
a photo, and it says, old Mogi turns up five
minutes late. And he'd taken sort of a paparazzi photo
of me discreetly. And I was looking good. Could I
say that?

Speaker 1 (05:45):
Was he looking good, Keezy?

Speaker 3 (05:47):
Yeah, sure.

Speaker 4 (05:49):
Then in the intermission, I see Keezy sort of stumbling
his way out of the stalls with a couple of
empty beer cans in his hand.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
Oh, they were Woodstocks.

Speaker 1 (05:59):
Woodstocks. Yeah, nice.

Speaker 4 (06:01):
And he's making his way out the door, I can
only assume to reload. And I see him dressed in
what can only be described as street wear. He's wearing
a Warriors hat. You know that weird Warriors jacket he's got?

Speaker 1 (06:16):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:19):
Some Warriors shorts and jandals. And this is for the premiere.
And I just thought to myself, now, Keezy, you know,
you've been invited along to these sorts of things. You're
representing the big show, and you're also meant to be
showing the people on the stage who have come from,
you know, the most incredible places overseas to little old
New Zealand. And what do they look out and seek?

(06:40):
You know, a guy in his mid-30s trying to dress
up like one of his favourite players in the rugby
league team.

Speaker 3 (06:47):
Yeah, well, to be honest, fellas, I'm not that experienced
going to the theatre. I didn't even realise an opening
night was a special thing. So when I did get
there dressed head to foot in WAS gear, I did
feel a bit out of place.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (06:58):
I was the only one wearing a hat.

Speaker 5 (07:00):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (07:01):
Sorry, I was the only one wearing a sports hat.
The only other hat I saw was Oscar Kightley was
a few rows in front, dressed in a beautiful purple
suit with a fedora on.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
Yeah, now you're talking. That's style.

Speaker 4 (07:11):
That's class.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
That guy gets it. He gets it, man.

Speaker 3 (07:14):
Yeah, but I'm just wearing what I'm comfortable in.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
And that's head-to-toe Waz merch. And what was it?

Speaker 4 (07:19):
Jandals.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
Well, it's really interesting because, you know, I will say, Mogi,
that old Keezy can scrub up quite nicely, can't he?
He can. Thank you. But it's... It only ever seems
to be for piss-ups.

Speaker 5 (07:33):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
You know what I mean? Thank you. Then you have
a quality, classy event like a theatre show, and it's
the opening night of a big occasion, the Civic, a
grand spectacle of a place. And old Keezy staggers in
with his warrior shirt.

Speaker 3 (07:49):
What's this whole staggering thing?

Speaker 1 (07:52):
I mean, I'm... As much as we don't like it sometimes,
we are representing the big show. Thank you. You know
what I mean? And to just turn up. I mean,
there would have been people from overseas there going, I
love the show. It was absolutely wonderful. But the locals
of Philistines. Where are they from? I don't know.

Speaker 5 (08:13):
England.

Speaker 1 (08:14):
Yeah, England. Those guys.

Speaker 4 (08:15):
I was sitting next to them. They were horrified by
the state of old Casey there.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
I'm so sorry.

Speaker 4 (08:21):
That's all good. How was your missus about it? She
loved it.

Speaker 3 (08:23):
She had to sit with you. Yeah, well, she was
in head-to-toe Bulldogs gear.

Speaker 1 (08:30):
Then apparently you started chucking your woodstock cans under the stage. No,
I didn't.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
The Hauraki Big Show with Jase, Mike and Keezy. Tune
in weekdays at four on Radio Hauraki.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
Yes, indeed. Cake there on the Hauraki Big Show this
Tuesday afternoon. The time is 23 minutes past four o'clock. Fellas,
I want to get your advice on something. I've decided
to step up my social media game. Right.

Speaker 3 (09:02):
So that would mean posting or even doing anything.

Speaker 4 (09:04):
Oh, he does. I mean, when you went to Brisbane, Jase,
to the Magic Ground, some very nice photos were taken.

Speaker 1 (09:09):
Thank you, Mogan.

Speaker 4 (09:10):
To around local gardens. Rubbish bins, et cetera?

Speaker 1 (09:15):
And my group selfies, they go off. They do.

Speaker 3 (09:18):
Pugs did a lot of that work for you, though.

Speaker 1 (09:20):
Well, I mean, he posts them and stuff like that.
I still haven't quite figured out how to write on
them or put music to what you're doing. That's all right.

Speaker 3 (09:28):
Baby steps.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
But I've got this idea, and I want to put
this little concept to you, if I might, because I
think it's cool.

Speaker 4 (09:34):
Cool, man. You go for it.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
I think the kids will love it. Like, because I'm
going through the CBD all the time, listening to my
tunes on my skull candies.

Speaker 3 (09:41):
Oh, because you live in the city, eh?

Speaker 1 (09:43):
Yeah, man. And, you know, the tunes are playing in
my eardrums.

Speaker 3 (09:51):
And I'm thinking, you know, and I'm looking.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
And I'm just taking in the world. And so I've
had this idea, right, and I think it's going to
go off. I think it's going to go viral. of
Come for a Walk with Hoity J. And I've got
some really fat tune going on.

Speaker 4 (10:14):
Right.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
In the video.

Speaker 4 (10:16):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
And it's just me strolling through various parts of the
CBD with a tune banging in the background.

Speaker 4 (10:22):
So it's you walking in town.

Speaker 1 (10:24):
It's just Come for a Walk with Hoity J. And
it's literally just me walking, you know, through town.

Speaker 3 (10:29):
And you think that's going to go viral.

Speaker 1 (10:30):
I reckon it's going to go off. Yep. You know
how people see something and they go, oh. Hootie Jay's
done this thing. I reckon we should do it at
our work, you know, sort of thing. Because we do
that too.

Speaker 3 (10:39):
Oh, you want to start a trend.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
I want to start a trend.

Speaker 3 (10:42):
Where people film each other walking.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
Now.

Speaker 5 (10:45):
Now.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
I'm thinking, and you can give me advice on this
because I'm technically not very good at it. I don't
know if you know that about me. I'm getting a
selfie stick.

Speaker 4 (10:53):
Yeah, man.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
Absolutely.

Speaker 3 (10:55):
What's a selfie stick?

Speaker 1 (10:56):
Well, you know, I presume it's like a stick thing
that you shove your phone on the end of.

Speaker 4 (11:01):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
So then you're walking along looking really cool and, you know, hip.

Speaker 3 (11:05):
And you can film yourself.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
And you can film yourself or, you know, have it
out in front of me. So I could be having
my skull candies on. The tune's douche, douche, douche, douche.
I'm walking through town just taking shots of everything with
the tune in the background. Yeah, right.

Speaker 4 (11:22):
There's a couple of options there as well. There's a
selfie stick, but then you've got to hold it.

Speaker 3 (11:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (11:27):
Right?

Speaker 4 (11:27):
Yes. But there's also a new addition, and that is
a belt which you stick the selfie stick into. Yes,
I've seen that. Sort of like a fishing pole.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 4 (11:36):
On a boat, you know how they have the pole holders?

Speaker 1 (11:38):
Yes, I do, yeah.

Speaker 4 (11:39):
So that frees your hands up, and you're then able
to sort of wander around. The other thing that's come
out recently, of course, is the sicko goggles. And those
are those sort of, what are they, Google glasses, I
think they're called, where they're constantly recording people without their
knowledge or consent. That would suit you down to the ground.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
Yeah, the only thing is, Mogi, I don't really wear
my glasses in the city. But look, this is the thing.
I'm open to all technology. I just worry that the
one in my groin, yeah, that one, be very low
to the ground.

Speaker 4 (12:12):
Well, I mean, it doesn't matter. It could be on
your forehead. It's still going to be very low to
the ground.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
Well, that's what I mean. You know, I'm not a
big unit, so I might be just a shot of
all these people's kneecaps.

Speaker 3 (12:22):
Are you worried about getting smacked over, walking around town
with a selfie stick vibing?

Speaker 1 (12:27):
Keezy, you've known me for a long time, and I'm
pretty sure one of the things you know about me
is I know how to look after myself, all right? Yeah, man,
you really look.

Speaker 3 (12:38):
You take care of yourself.

Speaker 5 (12:39):
You do.

Speaker 1 (12:39):
He takes care of number one. But what do you think?
I mean, I'll get a selfie stick.

Speaker 3 (12:42):
Right.

Speaker 1 (12:43):
I'll put tunes on my walks.

Speaker 3 (12:45):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (12:46):
I'll walk with Hootie Joe, and they're fat beats too.
Don't worry about that.

Speaker 3 (12:49):
Who's editing it?

Speaker 1 (12:50):
I'll edit it.

Speaker 4 (12:51):
Right.

Speaker 1 (12:52):
I'm not even going to edit it. I'll just play
it from beginning to end, and that'll be.

Speaker 5 (12:56):
The end of it.

Speaker 4 (12:56):
So you just chuck it up on Instagram? Yeah. Maybe
like three hours long?

Speaker 1 (13:00):
Well, I don't think three hours. Maybe two. 2.30, you
know what I mean? And people would be like, I
could see people sitting in their lounges, you know, just sitting,
getting mesmerized and going, yeah, this is cool. It's kind
of like the Odyssey, isn't it?

Speaker 4 (13:15):
It's kind of that kind of length anyway if you're
talking two and a half hours. And there is a
certain amount of jeopardy because once you get down to
the waterfront, there's every chance that a seago will pick
you up and take you out over the ocean.

Speaker 5 (13:25):
Right.

Speaker 2 (13:26):
The Hauraki Big Show. Weekdays from 4 on Radio Hauraki.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
Yes, indeed. Wazzle cars. Yeah. Eh? Fellas? Fellas?

Speaker 5 (13:35):
Eh?

Speaker 1 (13:35):
I tell you what, I thought it was just going
to be all NRL, this competition. But there's been quite
a few backbones out there that have gone Bathurst. The
old petrolheads.

Speaker 4 (13:46):
People love their cars, what do you say?

Speaker 1 (13:47):
They do.

Speaker 4 (13:48):
You know, they have a real love affair with them.

Speaker 1 (13:50):
Yeah. I've never got it myself.

Speaker 5 (13:52):
No.

Speaker 1 (13:53):
You know what I mean? I just.

Speaker 3 (13:54):
What do you love?

Speaker 1 (13:56):
Hot pot.

Speaker 3 (13:57):
Imagine there was like a special event in Australia on
Hot Pot Mountain where all of the hot pot enthusiasts
gathered to watch the best hot potters in the world
go around Mount Panorama.

Speaker 4 (14:07):
And some people cheer for a spicy hot pot and
other people cheer for a pretty mild.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
Green pepper.

Speaker 3 (14:12):
Or a green pepper. You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (14:13):
I'll tell you another passion I've got. Candles.

Speaker 3 (14:18):
What, like scented candles?

Speaker 4 (14:19):
Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (14:20):
Cool, so imagine all the biggest candle enthusiasts in the
world gathering in Australia.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
I'd be there. But it's not that. It's NRL Grand
Final and or Bathurst. Let's go to the phone lines. G'day, Aaron,
you mad bastard. How's life? Excellent, actually.

Speaker 4 (14:36):
Excellent at the moment.

Speaker 1 (14:37):
Yeah, good on you, mate. Tell me, Aaron, what do
you do for a crust?

Speaker 4 (14:40):
I just look after my old man, actually. Oh, you're a.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
Backbone, mate. Backbone. I hope you're on 200 grand a year. Backbone.

Speaker 3 (14:48):
Hey, Aaron, which one are you choosing, mate, grand final
or Bathurst?

Speaker 4 (14:54):
You know, grand final.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
Yeah, totally, man, totally.

Speaker 3 (14:57):
Are you a Warriors fan, Aaron?

Speaker 4 (14:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
And who would you take with you? Were you lucky
enough to win?

Speaker 5 (15:03):
Probably my brother, actually.

Speaker 4 (15:05):
He's a Panthers fan.

Speaker 3 (15:06):
Oh, is he?

Speaker 1 (15:07):
Oh, yeah. That'd be a good game.

Speaker 4 (15:08):
What a son of a B.

Speaker 3 (15:10):
Hey, Aaron, you're in the draw, mate. You hold the line,
all right? Pug's going to look after you.

Speaker 4 (15:14):
Backbone. Okay, good as gold.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
Good on you, mate. G'day, Duncan, you mad bastard. How's life? Oh, good, mate.

Speaker 2 (15:20):
How are you?

Speaker 1 (15:20):
Yeah, good, thanks, mate.

Speaker 3 (15:21):
Good.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
How's your Tuesday going?

Speaker 2 (15:24):
Tuesday's good.

Speaker 5 (15:25):
It's been a bit sunnier than the old welly.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
Oh, has it?

Speaker 3 (15:28):
You've got to enjoy it.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
Oh, you've got to get out, man. I tell you what,
in Auckland at the moment, she's blowing a bloody gale.
Absolute gale.

Speaker 3 (15:37):
Far out. It's good stuff, fellas. Hey.

Speaker 4 (15:41):
Hang on, Keezy, man. What's up, man? Just before you
move off the weather chat, Duncan, have the Nor'Westers started yet, man?
You normally get those in your spring.

Speaker 5 (15:49):
Oh, yeah, no, no. We switched this morning from a
southerly to a northerly.

Speaker 1 (15:53):
How good.

Speaker 4 (15:53):
It's a good time to be alive. Southerly gale to
a northerly gale.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
Oh, yes.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
So what would be your choice there, Dunk?

Speaker 4 (16:01):
NRL, Bathurst?

Speaker 1 (16:02):
I'll go with the hot pot, actually.

Speaker 3 (16:04):
I've got to go with the hot pot.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
Jewish. No, no, I'll go with NRL. Yeah, cool.

Speaker 3 (16:10):
And, Dunk, just before you go, what do you do
for a crust, man?

Speaker 5 (16:13):
I'm a beer transfer technician.

Speaker 3 (16:15):
Oh, yeah?

Speaker 1 (16:16):
You take the beer out of the can and put
it in your mouth.

Speaker 5 (16:19):
Yeah, I love working at the pub.

Speaker 4 (16:21):
Backbone.

Speaker 3 (16:22):
Get on your dunk. You hold the line, and old
Pugsan will look after you.

Speaker 5 (16:25):
All right? How good. Cheers, lads.

Speaker 4 (16:26):
Get on your feel.

Speaker 3 (16:27):
That's a big shout-out to boyschip.co.nz, who will be organising
either package, depending on what you win, and just an
announcement that the NRL Grand Final package is officially sold out.

Speaker 1 (16:36):
Wow!

Speaker 3 (16:37):
As I'm surprised. I'm not surprised that it sold out,
but I'm surprised it took this long, to be honest.

Speaker 4 (16:42):
Yeah, I think people are sort of like, you're hedging
your bets, because in all honesty... You know, I mean,
I know a lot of people have gone over to
the grand final. I'm not sure how pumped I'd be
to watch two teams that have knocked out the Warriors.

Speaker 1 (16:53):
Yeah, you're right.

Speaker 4 (16:53):
Compete for a title that the Warriors can't get. You know?

Speaker 1 (16:56):
You know?

Speaker 5 (16:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (16:57):
Well, certainly for a Waz fan, yes.

Speaker 3 (16:59):
Potentially another chance to get yourself in the draw for
this competition later on in the show. Listen for the
cue to call, and then call 0800 Hauraki.

Speaker 1 (17:05):
Yeah, bloody good. In the meantime, oh yeah, bit of
push push.

Speaker 2 (17:09):
The Hauraki Big Show.

Speaker 3 (17:11):
Weekdays from 4pm.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
Foo Fighters there on the Hauraki Big Show this Tuesday afternoon.
The time is 4.47. Let's talk TV. What's on the
telly with Mike Minogue. Yeah! Woo!

Speaker 4 (17:31):
On Friday night, you spoke about this, Keith, yesterday, same
time on the show. I went and saw a certain... Alice.
So Cirque du Soleil, it's acrobats. It's a type of circus,
but it's with acrobats, no animals. It was on at
the Civic Theatre here in Auckland. I think it's on
for the next couple of weeks. It's the story of
Alice in Wonderland, isn't it, Keezy?

Speaker 1 (17:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (17:51):
Now, Alice comes out and, you know, look, it's not
word for word, let me put it that way. But
there's lots of classical music. Very recognisable classical music that
anybody in the street would have heard. And the person
that plays Alice is sort of a classically trained operatic singer.
Absolutely amazing. Brilliant. And then the story gets told and

(18:14):
you've got various trapeze artists doing all sorts of different things, which,
as you said, Keezy, make you more and more anxious
as the show goes on. Incredible skill. I found it really.
I found it absolutely amazing and life-affirming, and I think
it's the sort of thing that absolutely everybody should go
and see. It's amazing that people can do any of
this stuff at all. They have a clown in there

(18:37):
that comes along as well, who's the Mad Hatter, is
his character, and he sort of breaks it up, gets
people out of the audience, that sort of stuff. The tickets,
I looked them up, they weren't super, like normally you
see Cirque du Soleil, it's $ 180 or something insane like that.
This is like, I saw tickets for $ 60.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (18:52):
And I don't think there's really a bad seat in
the house. If you can get along to it, absolutely
get along to it. Keezy, you gave it 4.2. I
couldn't ask for more out of a show than the
level of entertainment I got. That's a five-bussy show for me.

Speaker 1 (19:03):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (19:04):
Get along, tickets on sale in Auckland, and I don't
think they're going anywhere else, so you're out of luck.

Speaker 1 (19:08):
Good stuff, mate. Well, on your recommendation, Mogi, I watched
a film on Netflix, The Whisper Man. Yeah. Starring Robert
De Niro, Adam Scott, and Mona.

Speaker 4 (19:19):
Bridget Moynihan.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
Moynihan, yes. Here's the story outline.

Speaker 4 (19:22):
And Michael Keaton.

Speaker 1 (19:23):
And Michael Keaton, yes. When his eight-year-old son is abducted,
a widowed crime writer looks to his estranged father, a
retired police detective, for help. He soon discovers a connection
to the decades-old case of a convicted serial killer known
as the Whisper Man. Now, look. It was a very

(19:46):
solid film, is how I would describe it. Nothing... particularly
amazing about it. And also, I think there's something wrong.
Movies that are really dark on my TV, I can't
see crap. You know what I mean? We tried to
lighten it. And there was a lot of dark, moody
interior stuff. I know how you feel. What's happening?

Speaker 4 (20:06):
What's happening?

Speaker 1 (20:07):
It annoys me. And I'll tell you what else was
very curious. Robert De Niro, who I'm a huge fan of.
Or have been. Have been. A very paint-by-numbers performance from him.

Speaker 4 (20:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
Very muted. I kind of felt, yeah, I just got
the vibe from him that he was just, it was
just another film and he was just going through the motions.

Speaker 4 (20:31):
I sort of feel like with him that it's probably
for the last 15 years or so, he keeps himself
very active. There's a lot of acting. He's not selective.

Speaker 5 (20:38):
No.

Speaker 4 (20:39):
I'm not saying that he should have been with this one,
but he turns out a lot of work and I
think he's probably a bit worried about the end of
his life.

Speaker 1 (20:47):
Maybe.

Speaker 4 (20:48):
You know, coming in the tunnel towards him.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
It was the first time I've ever watched De Niro
and gone, ah, not the best performance you've ever given. Right.
It's very kind of paint by numbers almost. Yeah, because
he was great in Meet the Fockers. He was, actually.
I love that film.

Speaker 4 (21:04):
Very good.

Speaker 1 (21:04):
But look, as I say, a pretty good watch, a
solid watch. I'll give it three buzzies.

Speaker 4 (21:09):
There you go.

Speaker 3 (21:09):
The Whisper Man.

Speaker 4 (21:10):
The Whisper Man Netflix. Directed by New Zealander James Ashcroft.

Speaker 3 (21:13):
Last night I watched the second to last episode of
the first season of Outrageous Fortune. TVNZ Plus. This episode,
a certain lawyer named Corky has got a pee addiction.
Played very well by Hoini J.

Speaker 4 (21:27):
Very convincingly.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
Thanks, mate.

Speaker 3 (21:28):
Really, really great performance.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (21:30):
Genuinely, I was like, oh my God, he's crazy.

Speaker 4 (21:32):
Right.

Speaker 3 (21:33):
And then there was a moment where Anthony Starr, who's
now an international superstar thanks to the boys, he plays Homelander,
he grabs you and throws you over the desk.

Speaker 5 (21:41):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (21:42):
Now, I remember you telling a story about that. What
happened after that? I.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
I think Anthony injured his hand.

Speaker 3 (21:47):
And he hurt himself.

Speaker 5 (21:48):
Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (21:49):
Because we actually did that stunt. And I can remember
at the time thinking, jeez, this is a bit full on. Yeah.
Because he was committed to it. And I was, you know,
a pee addict looking for my stuff. Yeah. So we
were both kind.

Speaker 3 (22:02):
Of, whoa!

Speaker 1 (22:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (22:04):
You both had your motivations.

Speaker 1 (22:05):
Yeah, we both had motivation.

Speaker 3 (22:07):
Because he plays two characters, Jethro and Van, who are twins.
And Jethro, you know, you have a go at Jethro
and then he like punches you in the face or
something and throws you over. And then Van comes and
starts kicking the shit out of old Horty J.

Speaker 1 (22:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (22:19):
Are you in more of Outrageous Fortune?

Speaker 1 (22:23):
Oh, I can't recall.

Speaker 3 (22:24):
It's only one of the greatest shows in New Zealand history.

Speaker 1 (22:29):
I think maybe I get arrested or something. Maybe. I
can't remember. It's a surprise.

Speaker 4 (22:35):
Not because Jase wants it to be a surprise, but
because he can't remember.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
Pretty much.

Speaker 3 (22:38):
Because the thing I've noticed in that show is the
side characters will get introduced and then they'll be woven
back into the story again.

Speaker 1 (22:45):
Yes, I am still in the series.

Speaker 4 (22:47):
Okay, great.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
Because I think I come back in maybe season three. Okay,
great to know. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (22:53):
Very, very, very, very good. If you haven't seen it before,
please go watch it.

Speaker 4 (22:56):
Yeah, man.

Speaker 1 (22:56):
It's so good.

Speaker 4 (22:57):
When can I see that, QB?

Speaker 1 (22:58):
TVNZ Plus, man.

Speaker 5 (22:58):
Okay, thanks, man.

Speaker 1 (22:59):
So great. In the meantime, he's talking heads.

Speaker 2 (23:03):
The Hauraki Big Show with Jase, Mike and Keezy. Tune
in weekdays at 4 on Radio Hauraki.

Speaker 1 (23:09):
Welcome back, you massive backbones. Hope you're getting through your
Tuesday okay. You're listening to The Big Show, by the way,
brought to you by Reburger.

Speaker 3 (23:16):
Crave-worthy street food freshly made with Reburger.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
Scrumdiddlyumptious. I just had a curious thought, fellas, before we
started this voice break. And it was, I wonder how
many voice breaks I've done in my life.

Speaker 3 (23:33):
A voice break being where you chat between songs.

Speaker 1 (23:36):
You know, where you do your job, basically.

Speaker 4 (23:37):
Well, sadly, the last person that would know the answer
to that is you.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
Exactly.

Speaker 4 (23:41):
As we just found out earlier on with Keezy talking
about Outrageous Fortune and then asking you whether you knew
if you were in any episodes past the conclusion of
season one, you don't know.

Speaker 1 (23:51):
Yeah, no, then I remembered season three, Keezy.

Speaker 4 (23:54):
Well, you guessed. We'll find out.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
Lock and load, mate.

Speaker 3 (23:57):
How many episodes of Brokenwood have you been in?

Speaker 1 (23:59):
Well, I wouldn't have a clue, man.

Speaker 3 (24:00):
Okay, so how are you supposed to know how many
voice breaks you've done?

Speaker 1 (24:04):
Well, this is what I mean. I mean, you could
go by numbers.

Speaker 4 (24:07):
Yeah, that's the way you normally do it.

Speaker 1 (24:09):
Sort of 17 in a day and five days a week,
50 years. You know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (24:17):
I thought you were 39.

Speaker 1 (24:18):
I reckon it's like this could be my millionth voice break.

Speaker 3 (24:23):
Could be. I've just typed it in and done the maths.

Speaker 4 (24:26):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (24:26):
47. 47. God, is that all? Yeah. God, it feels
a lot more than that. I know.

Speaker 4 (24:32):
You sure it's not 39? It feels a lot more
than that. A lot more than 39, Jase.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
Hey, anyway.

Speaker 3 (24:40):
It feels more like mid-50s to me.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
Yeah, like mid-50s.

Speaker 4 (24:42):
Yeah, right.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, it wouldn't be that much.

Speaker 3 (24:45):
It's just what it feels like.

Speaker 1 (24:48):
Now, coming up, we check Keezy's racing pigeon.

Speaker 3 (24:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (24:53):
It's not good.

Speaker 3 (24:54):
No, it's not. We've got to do something about this, fellas.

Speaker 1 (24:56):
Here's Soundgarden.

Speaker 2 (24:57):
The Hauraki Big Show. Weekdays from 4 on Radio Hauraki.

Speaker 1 (25:01):
Queens of the Stone Age on the Radio Hauraki Big
Show this Tuesday afternoon. The time, 14 minutes past 5 o'clock. Now,
many of our listeners will be aware that old Keezy
spent a fair amount of coin on a racing pigeon.
And I think it's fair to say, fellas, it's been
an unmitigated disaster. Keezy on all wings looking over his

(25:24):
beak with me, Keezy.

Speaker 3 (25:29):
That's right, Keezy on all wings looking over his beak
with me, Keezy. It's the name of the stupid pigeon.
As chosen by the Hodaki audience.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
Yeah, man.

Speaker 3 (25:38):
Still hate that name.

Speaker 1 (25:39):
I love it.

Speaker 3 (25:41):
So this pigeon has done five races, fellas. Basically what
happened is there's a bloke down in Timaru there. He
runs a bar called Hector Blacks. They have got the
Oamaru Bird Club on board and they do a spring
series of pigeon races. Yeah. So we've had five races
so far. The first race, Ashburton to Oamaru, 150 kilometres.

(26:03):
My pigeon came 93rd out of a possible 115th. So
right at the back of the pack, not good. Next race, Christchurch, Tuamaru, 73rd.
Getting better, still shithouse. Next race, Cheviot, Tuamaru, 38th. Improving.

Speaker 4 (26:20):
How far was that one?

Speaker 3 (26:21):
That was 200 and, sorry, 320 kilometres.

Speaker 4 (26:26):
That's a long way.

Speaker 1 (26:27):
That's a long way.

Speaker 4 (26:29):
Especially if you're going, you know, sort of 38th. It's
a waste of time.

Speaker 3 (26:32):
100%.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
You just want to go, why am I doing this mid-air?

Speaker 3 (26:36):
Kaikoura to Oamaru, 380 kilometres, 31st. So improved again. Wow.

Speaker 1 (26:43):
Long distance, obviously. Mad bastard.

Speaker 3 (26:45):
Now, over the weekend, it was back to the Ashburton
to Oamaru, the short distance race where it originally came
93rd the first time around. Fellas, the reason I haven't
brought it up is because I'm not bringing this to
the table. I'm not giving it to you and the
listeners unless it does something good. And I'm actually getting
to the point now where it's actually embarrassing to have
this pigeon... sort of related to the big show.

Speaker 1 (27:06):
It's like an albatross around your neck, if I can
put it that way, Keezy.

Speaker 4 (27:11):
Can I just say that in terms of content for
the big show, the results are good.

Speaker 1 (27:17):
Why's that?

Speaker 4 (27:17):
Well, because the bird is failing miserably and you've heavily
invested in its success. So for that, it's the perfect
concoction of you've got high hopes and then the delivery
of the thing that you've got faith in, like Hoity
J giving up the smoking.

Speaker 1 (27:29):
Yeah, failed again. Has let you down. Again.

Speaker 4 (27:31):
So Keezy's sad. Ratings go up.

Speaker 1 (27:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (27:34):
People love it. It's our bread and butter, Keezy.

Speaker 3 (27:37):
Keezy's sad equals ratings up.

Speaker 4 (27:39):
That's right. And so I think the only mistake we're
making here is not talking about it every single week. Now,
if this bird was coming first or we were making
lots of money, people would change the channels.

Speaker 5 (27:49):
Yeah. Really?

Speaker 3 (27:49):
Because I think that they'd be kind of stoked.

Speaker 1 (27:51):
No. No, no, no.

Speaker 4 (27:53):
They'd be fuming.

Speaker 3 (27:54):
Like, if it had won every race, we'd have five
grand right now.

Speaker 4 (27:56):
You would have five grand, and they wouldn't stand for that.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
And your initial investment, you know, I know it's sort
of loose change for you, but a grand is not,
you know, it's not insignificant. Was it $ 1, 000? Yeah.

Speaker 4 (28:07):
It's not cheap, is it?

Speaker 1 (28:09):
No, and I mean, especially when you're getting results like that. Like,
if you had invested that money in the stock exchange,
for example, that's like a... A collapse.

Speaker 3 (28:20):
Yeah, right. Whereas this pigeon who sucks ass is a
way better investment.

Speaker 1 (28:25):
No, this is what I mean. It's the same thing.

Speaker 4 (28:27):
Yeah, but it's a better investment in our content. Very
much so. You know what I'm saying? Because it's drawn
out over such a long period. Week after week after
week of failure, then high hopes, then failure, then high hopes,
then failure.

Speaker 5 (28:39):
100%.

Speaker 4 (28:39):
And so on and so on and so on.

Speaker 1 (28:41):
Sounds like the wars.

Speaker 3 (28:42):
Now, Jase, they're literally top of the table right now.

Speaker 1 (28:45):
Are you serious?

Speaker 4 (28:47):
Come on, man.

Speaker 3 (28:48):
The thing that happens every week is the bloke that's
running at Pigeon Tim, the guy who sold me the pigeon,
he releases a video of him reading out the top
15 results.

Speaker 5 (28:57):
Right.

Speaker 3 (28:57):
15th place gets $ 100.

Speaker 1 (28:59):
And so on. Are you poised? Yes.

Speaker 5 (29:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (29:02):
And he goes from 15 down to one. The same
birds are mentioned every single week.

Speaker 5 (29:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (29:07):
And never is my bird mentioned. So I'm at the
point now where I'm actually like, hey, what are we
going to do here? Because it's got another race this weekend.
What if it loses again? I'm at the point, and
I'm open to suggestions, 3483. If the pigeon loses this weekend,
what are we doing with it?

Speaker 4 (29:22):
Well, I sort of feel like you've invested in the pigeon,
because you've got to stick with it. You know, this
pigeon has been named after you. This pigeon is part
of your family. I hate to say it, but it's
part of the Big Show family. um you know keezy
on all wings looking over its beak with me keezy
what are you gonna do you can't you're gonna you're
gonna back paddock.

Speaker 3 (29:41):
It no well that's up to the audience three four
eight three every text in the drawer for a 50
reburg about you if it doesn't get on the podium
this week in the top 10 i want suggestions of
what we do with the pigeon All right, and to
be honest, I want to chat to Pigeon Tim again.
I haven't chatted to him.

Speaker 4 (29:54):
In a month. I've got a vibe that Pigeon Tim
is running a not-insubstantial Ponzi scheme here, and our friend
Keezy has been a victim of it.

Speaker 1 (30:02):
Well, I'm really looking forward to you just letting loose
on Pigeon Tim, actually. Well, no, not yet. Giving it
to him. Just saying, what are you doing here, mate?
I'm not going to let loose on him on the radio. Well,
I think you should. I'd be fuming. Weezer? Yeah, okay.

Speaker 2 (30:17):
The Hauraki Big Show with Jase, Mike and Keezy. Tune
in weekdays at 4 on Radio Hauraki.

Speaker 1 (30:22):
Gorillas there on the Radio Hauraki Big Show this Tuesday afternoon.
The time is 5.27. We're talking Keezy's racing pigeon. And
if you just tuned in.
Old Keezy on all wings looking over his beak with me. Keezy,

(30:43):
the name of the pigeon, has not been performing well.
And Keezy is absolutely fuming. Keezy on all wings looking
over his beak with me. Keezy. I am anticipating massive
fireworks in the next minute or two because we've got

(31:05):
Pigeon Tim who runs the whole operation on the phone there. G'day, Tim,
you mad bastard. How's life?

Speaker 5 (31:11):
G'day, fellas. How are you going today?

Speaker 1 (31:13):
Yeah, good. Thanks, mate. Good, good, good. Keezy, not so much.

Speaker 5 (31:16):
Hey, Tim. I understand you're not happy. Hey, settle down, fellas.
Settle down. This is only... Hey, remember we had a
sprint race this last week. Your bird had been doing
better over distance, so settle down in the north, we've
got a big race from Blenheim this week, good old turnaround.

Speaker 3 (31:32):
Tim, Tim, just quickly, do you know where Keezy on
all wings, looking over his beak with me, Keezy finished
this weekend, just gone?

Speaker 5 (31:39):
Oh, yeah, not that great. You were 88.

Speaker 3 (31:43):
80, okay, okay.

Speaker 1 (31:44):
Lucky for some.

Speaker 4 (31:45):
Because it was a.

Speaker 5 (31:46):
Shorter distance, I reckon he liked the distance.

Speaker 4 (31:48):
Two fat ladies.

Speaker 5 (31:48):
Look, you're going to be all good.

Speaker 3 (31:51):
Okay, so I've been plotting down all the results and
the distances, and it does show that my bird is
a long-distance bird. What is the longest distance race that
you run, Tim?

Speaker 5 (32:00):
Yeah, that's going to be this week, guys. 470km, it's
Flynham to Oamaru.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
Okay, so 470km. The furthest distance so far was 380km.
So it's an extra 90km there.

Speaker 4 (32:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (32:16):
Okay, all right. So what I've decided, Tim, is we're
going to give Keezy on all wings one last chance
this weekend just to sort of prove his medal or
her medal.

Speaker 5 (32:25):
Don't get the bloody recipes ready yet for Pitch and Pie,
you know? You could be into some serious money here, fellas.
Don't give up.

Speaker 3 (32:33):
Pigeon Tim, in your experience, do pigeons improve? Because every
week I watch the video of the announcement and it's
the same pigeons taking out the top spots.

Speaker 5 (32:42):
No, two rights, they improve. No, no, like I said,
this is all, you know, we've got a theory here, fellas,
and I reckon it is because you've got distance on
your side, this is going to.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
Help you out.

Speaker 5 (32:51):
We were actually over and out of Taki the other day,
just out of Rarotonga, and someone asked if I was
Pigeon Tim. We were talking about pigeons and Well, yes.

Speaker 1 (33:00):
Pigeon Tim. It's going far and wide, fellas.

Speaker 3 (33:02):
Someone at RARO asked for your Pigeon Tim. That's great. Tim,
one question I have to ask, man, is did you
knowingly sell me a dud pigeon?

Speaker 5 (33:12):
I wouldn't do that.

Speaker 4 (33:13):
Yeah, nah.

Speaker 5 (33:14):
I wouldn't, couldn't, and shouldn't. So don't worry about that, fellas.
It's all legit, all good.

Speaker 4 (33:18):
Just looking, we've got a framed photo here of Keezy
on all wings looking over his beak with me, Keezy.
You know, it's got the look of a.
I don't know. It hasn't got too many brain cells.
Do you need to be a smart bird to be
a good flyer, Tim?

Speaker 5 (33:34):
No, I don't think so.

Speaker 1 (33:35):
No.

Speaker 5 (33:35):
Hey, look at these runners out there. You tell me
you're saying Bob's a smart man.

Speaker 1 (33:39):
Yeah, true, true.

Speaker 5 (33:39):
Yeah. No, no, don't panic.

Speaker 4 (33:44):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (33:44):
Don't panic. Don't panic, Keezy.

Speaker 3 (33:46):
Okay, Tim, I won't panic.

Speaker 5 (33:48):
Not yet.

Speaker 3 (33:49):
Look, thank you so much for your time again. And
a reminder, if you're intimidated, check out Hector Black's. It's
my favourite pub down there.

Speaker 1 (33:54):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (33:55):
Tim, we'll catch up to you maybe next week or
the week after.

Speaker 4 (33:57):
All right?

Speaker 5 (33:58):
Sounds good, fellas. Good luck.

Speaker 1 (34:00):
Thanks, Tim. You know what I think you need to do, Keezy?
I think you need to invest more. What do you mean?
In your pigeon. You know, if you want good results,
what's the saying? You've got to spend money to make money.

Speaker 4 (34:13):
That's true, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (34:14):
So I reckon you need, you know, maybe some nutritionist
sort of assistance, all that sort of stuff.

Speaker 3 (34:20):
Well, a lot of people are texting through 3483, someone
suggesting that I feed the pigeon up on steroids.

Speaker 1 (34:26):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (34:27):
Look into that as an option. Someone here saying that
I've got to ride the pigeon until he wins.

Speaker 4 (34:32):
Yep, you do have to ride it until he wins.
You've got a bit of tough love.

Speaker 3 (34:35):
A lot of people.

Speaker 4 (34:36):
Bit of tough love.

Speaker 3 (34:37):
A lot of people suggesting I serve it up at
my come-dine with me.

Speaker 4 (34:40):
A little outboard motor.

Speaker 3 (34:42):
On the back of the pigeon?

Speaker 4 (34:43):
Yeah, on the back of the pigeon.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
But you know it's flying, eh?

Speaker 4 (34:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (34:46):
But an outboard.

Speaker 4 (34:47):
Yeah, but it's got that fan at the back that
goes really fast.

Speaker 1 (34:51):
What about.

Speaker 4 (34:51):
Keith, you've got to try everything at this point. And
you might roll your eyes, mate, but yours is... Your
bloody pigeon's an absolute.

Speaker 3 (34:56):
Tell me to put a boat motor on a pigeon.
What was your suggestion, Jase?

Speaker 1 (35:01):
Aerodynamic goggles. Oh, yeah, nice. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (35:05):
So put goggles on the pigeon.

Speaker 1 (35:06):
Maybe you need to make it a pigeon suit that's aerodynamic.
It's a pigeon.

Speaker 3 (35:10):
It doesn't need a pigeon suit.

Speaker 2 (35:12):
The Hauraki Big Show with Jase, Mike and Keezy. Tune
in weekdays at 4 on Radio Hauraki.

Speaker 3 (35:23):
This is Breaking News.

Speaker 1 (35:26):
Boom.

Speaker 3 (35:27):
The Dunedin Beer Festival is happening once again, fellas, which
is bloody exciting. You can get your tickets at dunedinbeerfestival.co.nz.
It's the South's biggest weekend of beer, food, and music.

Speaker 1 (35:38):
Bloody great time.

Speaker 3 (35:39):
Every time we go down there, we do a live show.
We then go to the beer festival, and it's a
bloody good weekend, and I always feel a bit secondhand
the following week.

Speaker 1 (35:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (35:48):
Let's just say that. Emerson's are the ones flying us
down there. And they are making a special brew.

Speaker 1 (35:53):
Have they got a plane? No.

Speaker 3 (35:58):
They're just paying for us to go down there.

Speaker 1 (35:59):
Oh, right.

Speaker 3 (36:00):
They're hosting us.

Speaker 1 (36:01):
I was going to say, jeez, they must be going
bloody well if they own their own plane.

Speaker 3 (36:05):
I don't think Emerson's has an aeroplane.

Speaker 1 (36:06):
We don't know.

Speaker 3 (36:07):
No, well, we don't know.

Speaker 1 (36:08):
You're right.

Speaker 3 (36:09):
But they're flying us down there because they are making
a special beer for the festival. It is a tropical
hazy pale ale. And they need a name for the beer.

Speaker 1 (36:17):
Backbone. Okay.

Speaker 3 (36:19):
So that's... Yeah, well, Backbone, I guess you could call it.

Speaker 4 (36:21):
How about Backbone Brew?

Speaker 3 (36:22):
I think we've already had Backbone Brew.

Speaker 4 (36:24):
Have we?

Speaker 3 (36:24):
I'm pretty sure we have.

Speaker 1 (36:26):
I'm joking.

Speaker 4 (36:27):
What about Backbone, Backbone, hashtag Backbone?

Speaker 3 (36:30):
Well, you could call it Backbone, Backbone, hashtag Backbone, but, Mogie,
to be honest, it's up to the listeners, man.

Speaker 4 (36:35):
I'm just chucking out some ideas, though, to get the
creative juices flowing.

Speaker 1 (36:38):
What about... Cool. What about... Keezy on all fours looking
over his shoulder with me, Keezy.

Speaker 4 (36:45):
What about Keezy on all fours looking over his shoulder
with me, Citrusy Hazy Pale Ale, was it?

Speaker 1 (36:52):
Citrusy Hazy Pale Ale.

Speaker 3 (36:54):
So say that again.

Speaker 4 (36:55):
Keezy on all fours looking over his shoulder with me,
Citrusy Hazy Pale Ale.

Speaker 3 (37:00):
Yeah cool I reckon we just lock that in because
that rolls off the tongue and we just sort of
flag the whole competition yeah okay sorted no but the
way it works is you call up you then tell
us your best beer name okay okay what you want
to name this thing and then you get to go
on the draw to be honest we don't really you
know we haven't explained the competition yet to these people
so let's just take Jory there g'day Jory how you.

Speaker 4 (37:21):
Going not too bad yourself yeah.

Speaker 3 (37:23):
Good mate hey have you got a name for the
have you got a name for the beer man.

Speaker 4 (37:29):
Honestly No.

Speaker 5 (37:31):
Off the top of my head, I would give it
something real cool like the special meat patty nip hazy
pale ale.

Speaker 4 (37:39):
There we go.

Speaker 3 (37:40):
Special meat patty nip hazy.

Speaker 1 (37:41):
He just actually gave me an idea, which I think
would be a great name for a beer. Off the
top of my head.

Speaker 3 (37:48):
Boom.

Speaker 1 (37:49):
Or off my head.

Speaker 3 (37:51):
All of the above are good. Thanks so much, Joey.
Hold the line there, mates. Look, have a think, all right?
Have a think.

Speaker 4 (37:57):
We need to float it so that people know that
the calls are coming. We're going to be taking calls
on this, aren't we, Keezy, moving forward? So have a
think about it. Come up with a name and be
ready to give us a bell when you hear the
cue to call. You know, it sort of feels like
a da-dooge, da-dooge, da-dooge.

Speaker 1 (38:12):
Yeah, da-dooge.

Speaker 4 (38:12):
Da-dooge is an option there. What else have we got?
That's pretty much it.

Speaker 1 (38:17):
My wife.

Speaker 3 (38:18):
That's pretty old.

Speaker 1 (38:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (38:20):
What about come drink with me? Oh.

Speaker 1 (38:23):
Oh, yeah. Really?

Speaker 5 (38:24):
Really?

Speaker 1 (38:26):
You like that? Feels? There's Sheehan.

Speaker 2 (38:36):
The Hodaki Big Show with Jase, Mike and Keezy. Tune
in weekdays at 4 on Radio Hodaki.

Speaker 1 (38:42):
Welcome back, you massive bank bones. Hope your Tuesday is
absolutely going off. You're listening to The Big Show, incidentally,
brought to you by Reburger.

Speaker 3 (38:50):
Beef, chicken, vegan and vegetarian options. Reburger, redefining the norm, man. Re.

Speaker 1 (38:58):
Yeah, good stuff. What's on the plate tonight, Mogi?

Speaker 4 (39:01):
I'm not entirely... Oh. No, no. There was some kind
of a mushroomy, grainy type of an affair being assembled
at home in there. See how that goes.

Speaker 1 (39:12):
I'd like a bit of mushroom action, actually, to be honest.

Speaker 4 (39:14):
Yeah, I'm not sure about the grains.

Speaker 5 (39:16):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (39:17):
It'll be delicious, I'm sure.

Speaker 1 (39:18):
Good for your stool.

Speaker 4 (39:19):
Oh, my stool, Keezy, and you'll know this, man, has
never been better.

Speaker 3 (39:26):
Jase, I did know that.

Speaker 5 (39:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (39:28):
It's been so good lately.

Speaker 1 (39:29):
You're doing well, man.

Speaker 5 (39:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (39:31):
It's because of all the grains.

Speaker 4 (39:33):
How about you, Keezy?

Speaker 1 (39:34):
What have you got on your plate? Well, you would
have probably finished for the day, wouldn't you?

Speaker 3 (39:38):
I had a hot pot before the show.

Speaker 1 (39:40):
Oh, yes.

Speaker 3 (39:41):
Came into town early, parked up, walked down to the
hot pot there. I seriously feel weird right now. My
stomach feels very weird. Something inside me is going to
burst at any moment.

Speaker 1 (39:51):
Something inside me. Great show, that.

Speaker 3 (39:54):
Tonight we're having a homemade butter chicken pie.

Speaker 5 (39:58):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 4 (39:58):
I like the sound of that. Can you bring me in, son?

Speaker 3 (40:00):
We made butter chicken a while back, and we had
some leftovers, so we made a pie, put it in
the freezer.

Speaker 4 (40:04):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (40:04):
Get it out, because my wife's got squash tonight. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 4 (40:08):
Question for you, Horty J, man. My daughter, having seen
the video from Come Dine with the Fellas that went
up on our Instagram page last evening, edited by the
wonderful Pugsart, who you'll remember. Spent an hour and a
half taking a dump during that dinner. She was wondering
if you had any leftover meringues, and perhaps you could
bring one in for my daughter. She likes a meringue.

Speaker 1 (40:29):
No.

Speaker 4 (40:30):
She was fuming that she didn't get one.

Speaker 1 (40:32):
Yeah, yeah, no, fair enough, too. Bloody delicious. No, we don't. Sorry, Mogi.
They're all gone.

Speaker 4 (40:38):
Ate them all, did you?

Speaker 1 (40:39):
Yeah, well, I think my daughter did. Well, they're delicious. Yeah, yeah.
They were delicious.

Speaker 3 (40:43):
Hey, speaking of delicious, what are you having for tea tonight,
New Zealand?

Speaker 1 (40:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (40:47):
3483, flick us a text. Every single text in the
drawer for 50 bucks worth of re-burger.

Speaker 1 (40:51):
Yeah, good stuff, mate. What am I having for tea,
did you ask? Homemade pizzas with ham on the bone,
you know, just sprinkled all over it.

Speaker 4 (41:00):
You're going to have ham on the bone?

Speaker 1 (41:01):
I'm just going to put the whole bone on my pizza.
Just wrap it up. It's great. Some cheese on there. And, yeah.
Good stuff.

Speaker 2 (41:10):
The Hodaki Big Show with Jace, Mike, and Keezy. Tune
in weekdays at 4 on Radio Hodaki.

Speaker 1 (41:18):
The Black Keys there on the Hodaki Big Show this
Tuesday evening, but right now it's time for.

Speaker 3 (41:25):
Time to chat footy with me, Keezy. What are the
Warriors up to? The Warriors are taking on the Seagulls
this Saturday, 5 p.m., It is the final round.

Speaker 1 (41:38):
Of the regular season. It is.

Speaker 4 (41:39):
You're right there, Keezy, man.

Speaker 3 (41:40):
And the Wads are in the top spot, Jase, on
the ladder.

Speaker 5 (41:42):
Yeah, man.

Speaker 3 (41:42):
Which means they've bagged a home semi. Doesn't matter too
much whether we finished first or second.

Speaker 1 (41:48):
It doesn't? Okay.

Speaker 3 (41:50):
Not drastically, you know. So, Mogi and I both had
a hunch that they would rest some key players, and
it looks like they have made that call on a
couple of players, specifically Wade Egan, our hooker, who's been
brilliant all season and damn near the best hooker in
the entire game. And also Kurt Capewill, who's a very
experienced Premiership winning, State of Origin winning player. who is

(42:12):
slightly older, and he's had a great season as well.
He's been in for most of the season, I think,
old Kirk Capel. So those two being rested, I like.
But other than that, Mogi, they've still named a pretty
stacked team.

Speaker 4 (42:21):
They have. And if you look at it, yeah, Charles
Nichol cook stack returns from suspension. He had two weeks off,
in which time we had Tain Tua Pickie came back
and sort of, I thought, solidified his position as fullback
because he'd been kicking like a mad bastard. But I'll
be honest with you, there's something about it. Chance, I
just love him at fullback. A bigger body, better on defence,

(42:44):
and I think we'll need it. Adam Pompey on the wing.
Lea Toa and Leka are the centres. AKP is on
the other wing. But Chanel Harris-Tavita and Tamari Martin return
in the halves. And I think that's possibly part of
the reason why they want this team to be stacked.
You know, you could have rested Fisher, Harris and Barney
as well. But they probably want to give as good

(43:05):
a platform as possible to our halves pairing so that
they can really come back and find their feet and
go well so that when we're going into that first semi,
they're not sort of having to find their feet there.
They've already got a bit of game time under. Quality
ball behind a decent pack, I think, is important after
a few weeks off.

Speaker 3 (43:25):
True that. Jase, in your experience, how do you approach
a semi?

Speaker 1 (43:29):
Yeah, what I was going to say, it's actually a
really interesting question, isn't it? Because obviously they're guaranteed that.
So the tendency would be, let's rest up, fellas, all
our key players. And we've had some horrific injury situations
with the Warriors this year. But there's also the other
school of thought, which is... Keep the momentum going. You know,

(43:49):
keep the fellas playing. Keep them in good form so
that when you hit the semi, you're all guns a-blazin'.
But you would be at the back of your mind going, oh,
let's just hope no one gets injured.

Speaker 3 (44:00):
What do you know about Eddie Itamir Toiava, who's starting
in the back row? What do you know about him?

Speaker 1 (44:06):
Heaps.

Speaker 3 (44:08):
Good player. First start of the season, Mogi, I think,
for Eddie.

Speaker 4 (44:10):
I think so, yeah.

Speaker 1 (44:10):
He's a bloody good.

Speaker 3 (44:11):
Player when he comes in. He only pops up every
now and then, depending on injuries.

Speaker 1 (44:15):
I reckon he deserves more time.

Speaker 3 (44:16):
100%, Jase. But I tell you what, Aaron Clark in 13,
and one of my favourite players, favourite payers this season,
Jacob Laban in 12.

Speaker 4 (44:27):
Yeah, man.

Speaker 1 (44:27):
Shit, he's good.

Speaker 4 (44:29):
He's got the lid. And Makai Tafua makes his way
onto the interchange as well.

Speaker 1 (44:34):
He's a hooker, eh?

Speaker 4 (44:34):
He's a hooker cover. He had a brilliant debut, and
then we haven't seen much of him. I think he
is outstanding.

Speaker 1 (44:40):
Same, man. Hasn't had enough time.

Speaker 3 (44:42):
Isn't it great that the whas are so stacked, right?
Even though we've had heaps of halfbacks go down. Jet
Cleary comes in, makes his debut. It's really like it's
a historic moment. The younger brother of the best player
in the league plays one game, boom, back to reserves.

Speaker 4 (44:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (44:56):
Because our main guys are back.

Speaker 1 (44:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (44:58):
It's bloody good, man.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
It's hard, man. It's hard out there.

Speaker 3 (45:00):
But that's this Saturday, 5 p.m. Waz taking on the Seagulls.
Get around it.

Speaker 5 (45:06):
June.

Speaker 1 (45:08):
Is this Oasis?

Speaker 5 (45:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (45:09):
Have you seen this live, man?

Speaker 4 (45:10):
Hello.

Speaker 3 (45:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (45:12):
Yeah, man. It's a tune. Yeah. Wonderwall, Jason. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (45:16):
It's good stuff.

Speaker 1 (45:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (45:17):
The Hodaki Big Show with Jase, Mike, and Keezy. Tune
in weekdays at 4 on Radio Hodaki.

Speaker 1 (45:23):
David Bowie there on the Hodaki Big Show this Tuesday evening. Now,
you fellas were talking about Cirque de Alice. Cirque de Alice.
And apparently.

Speaker 3 (45:36):
Cirque Alice, yes.

Speaker 1 (45:38):
Cirque Alice, okay. We are going to get some of
the backbones from that show on the show tomorrow.

Speaker 4 (45:44):
That's how they describe themselves. The cast describe themselves not
as cast, but as backbones.

Speaker 1 (45:49):
Yes, which is cool.

Speaker 4 (45:50):
My understanding is we're going to have Alice herself.

Speaker 3 (45:53):
Who was magnificent.

Speaker 4 (45:54):
Magnifique.

Speaker 3 (45:55):
Amazing voice.

Speaker 4 (45:57):
Incredible voice. And also the Mad Hatter.

Speaker 3 (46:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (46:02):
He's something of a mad bastard.

Speaker 3 (46:04):
He's a mad bastard.

Speaker 1 (46:05):
Is he quite mad, is he?

Speaker 4 (46:07):
He's quite hattery.

Speaker 1 (46:07):
He's quite a hat. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (46:10):
But it got me a thinking when I was sitting there.
I was like, man, there used to be a time when,
you know, your circuses would come to town, but they'd
be your animal ones.

Speaker 1 (46:17):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (46:17):
Your elephants.

Speaker 1 (46:20):
Your trapeze artistes, perhaps. Well, they still do that. Lion.

Speaker 5 (46:23):
Lion.

Speaker 3 (46:24):
Dog in a tutu.

Speaker 4 (46:26):
Yeah, dog dressed up. A bear on a push bike
with a little dress on.

Speaker 1 (46:31):
A clown. Ringing a bell. Yeah. You know?

Speaker 3 (46:34):
The bell's very specific.

Speaker 4 (46:36):
All those sorts of things. But now you've sort of
got rid of the animals. People don't like to see
the animals.

Speaker 1 (46:40):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (46:41):
They're like an animal in a zoo. Yeah. Their natural habitat.

Speaker 3 (46:45):
Well, I think historically a lot of elephants and stuff
have trampled and set off fires and killed a lot
of people.

Speaker 4 (46:51):
Oh, they're shocking bastards. I blame the animals.

Speaker 1 (46:54):
Yeah, right. That's interesting. Would they have the dagger wheel,
you know, where they spin the wheel or someone pinned
to it? That's right.

Speaker 3 (47:07):
So that's them throwing daggers at the person?

Speaker 5 (47:11):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (47:12):
Don't hit the person, Kesey.

Speaker 4 (47:13):
No, of course.

Speaker 3 (47:14):
So we're going to have a couple of the cast
members from Cirque du Soleil, Alison, tomorrow, which is exciting.

Speaker 1 (47:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (47:19):
And it got us thinking, didn't it, really, if we
were to run away with the circus, what roles would
we take, each of us? Oh, do-do-do-do-do-do.

Speaker 1 (47:31):
Well, I've got to be the guy in the top
hat and the outfit, the ringmaster.

Speaker 4 (47:35):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 1 (47:36):
Surely, I mean. Okay. Or the lion tamer, you know
what I mean?

Speaker 4 (47:40):
I could see you putting your head in the mouth
of a lion. Hippopotamus.

Speaker 3 (47:46):
Or a hippopotamus.

Speaker 4 (47:48):
A hippo, of course, is the classic circus animal. It
never felt like a circus unless you had a hippopotamus there.

Speaker 3 (47:57):
I mean, obviously, I could be like the human cannonball.

Speaker 1 (48:00):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 3 (48:01):
Fire me out of a cannon.

Speaker 1 (48:01):
Oh, yeah. That's right, the human cannonball.

Speaker 4 (48:05):
There's sort of that, they have the strong man who
sort of wears the pox on leotard.

Speaker 1 (48:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (48:10):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (48:11):
And he is sort of the moe, but Keezy, you'd
have to shave your head off because he's always bald,
that fella.

Speaker 3 (48:15):
Yeah, I'll shave my head off.

Speaker 1 (48:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (48:17):
And then wax up my moustache and make it curly.

Speaker 1 (48:21):
Did they used to have, I'm trying to remember what
it was called, you know, like the bearded lady.

Speaker 4 (48:25):
The freak show.

Speaker 1 (48:26):
I was just thinking the bearded lady.

Speaker 3 (48:27):
The freak show.

Speaker 1 (48:28):
Yeah, and you go, ooh. What were the other freaks
in the freak show?

Speaker 3 (48:32):
So you had the ugliest woman alive.

Speaker 1 (48:34):
Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 3 (48:34):
Which was actually a shaved ape.

Speaker 1 (48:37):
Oh, was it?

Speaker 3 (48:38):
Historically. What's the name of P.T. Barnum's travelling circus? It
was a shaved ape. A bear, sorry, a shaved bear.
It was the ugliest woman alive. They'd sedate it and
put it in a dress.

Speaker 1 (48:48):
And, of course, the... The bearded woman.

Speaker 4 (48:52):
There's someone for everyone.

Speaker 3 (48:53):
The bearded woman was a woman who actually did have
that condition.

Speaker 4 (48:56):
Where you grow facial hair. I think it's that condition
where they just don't wax.

Speaker 1 (49:01):
Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (49:02):
Well, you don't just grow a beard as a woman, traditionally.

Speaker 1 (49:04):
What would you do, Mogi? I don't know.

Speaker 3 (49:08):
I sort of feel like I'd like to be a
part of the trapeze.

Speaker 1 (49:11):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 4 (49:12):
One of the clowns would be good because you go
around with a bucket and you pretend you've got water
in there. You know, you trip over there's no water
yeah backbone.

Speaker 1 (49:19):
Yeah and try and throw it into the crowd.

Speaker 3 (49:20):

go along and see Cirque de Alice a lot of
good looking bastards in there Keezy oh yeah did you
notice that.

Speaker 1 (49:55):
Well, there you go, you mad bastards. That's the big
show done and dusted this Tuesday. In the disclaimer, we
talked all sorts of stuff, didn't we, Kesey? What's the
clip today?

Speaker 3 (50:06):
Good question, Jase. The disclaimer being the bonus podcast we
do every single day, Search Hodaki Big Show.

Speaker 4 (50:11):
It's a filthy one today, if I remember. Kesey was
off the rails.

Speaker 1 (50:14):
Was he?

Speaker 4 (50:14):
Shock and bass.

Speaker 1 (50:15):
Oh, yeah, that's right.

Speaker 3 (50:16):
Well, that probably explains why this clip is named, Ooh, Kesey.

Speaker 4 (50:23):
I don't rate the... of a standing man. It's not
as good. It's never as good.

Speaker 3 (50:30):
I don't mind it.

Speaker 1 (50:33):
What do you mean?

Speaker 3 (50:33):
That's going on the show. Sorry fellas, I was out
of control there. If you listen to that, you'll see.

Speaker 1 (50:46):
You'll see. It's kind of creepy.

Speaker 3 (50:47):
What, me just saying I don't mind it?

Speaker 4 (50:53):
It's all the stuff around it. It's all the other stuff.
It's all the eye contact around it.

Speaker 1 (50:57):
Yeah, right, okay.

Speaker 4 (50:58):
The hand signals and that.

Speaker 1 (51:00):
Mogi, plans for the evening, please. Going home now, man. Yeah, okay.
Good call.

Speaker 4 (51:06):
I might have a bath and read a bit more
of me book.

Speaker 1 (51:08):
Yeah, sure.

Speaker 4 (51:10):
But I also want to watch The Whisper Man as well.

Speaker 3 (51:12):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (51:12):
You know? I was meant to watch it last night,
but I was too tired and I went to bed early.
I've got to get a good sleep in me, fellas.
I've just got to.

Speaker 1 (51:20):
Yeah, man.

Speaker 4 (51:21):
It's ruining my days, fellas, so I'll have some sleepy tea.
Might have a standing up one. We'll see how we go.

Speaker 1 (51:26):
Yeah, good. Yeah, I don't mind a standing up one. What?

Speaker 3 (51:31):
It's a sleepy tea. I don't even know what you're
talking about, man. What are you up to, Jase?

Speaker 1 (51:36):
Well, I want to know what you're up to. If
you say a standing up one.

Speaker 4 (51:40):
I don't care what either of you are doing. Can
I go?

Speaker 1 (51:42):
No. Yeah, you can. You'll dismiss. No, no, no.

Speaker 3 (51:46):
I'm having pie.

Speaker 1 (51:47):
Yeah, nice. I like pie.

Speaker 3 (51:50):
My wife just messaged being like, hey, not going to
squash tonight.

Speaker 1 (51:53):
Can't be bothered. Oh, no. Just ruined your night.

Speaker 3 (51:56):
We're going to eat pie. It kind of has a
wee bit. We'll eat pie together, and then we'll probably
watch another episode of Outrageous Fortune, the final episode of
the first season.

Speaker 1 (52:03):
Yeah, nice.

Speaker 5 (52:03):
Nice.

Speaker 4 (52:04):
Jase.

Speaker 1 (52:04):
I'm going to go home and stuff my face. And
then have dinner. I don't even know what that means.

Speaker 4 (52:10):
I do. Shocking bit.

Speaker 1 (52:12):
Because I'm starving. Two nights in a row I've gone
home starving, but I've resisted buying anything on the way home.
I'm going to fill my boots, watch some TV, and
then I don't know, actually, what I might.

Speaker 3 (52:23):
We don't care after the watch TV part.

Speaker 4 (52:25):
Must go.

Speaker 3 (52:25):
Bogey's got to go, man.

Speaker 1 (52:27):
I've got to go, man. Actually, I had quite a
late one last night, so I'll probably look to have
a bit of a nerd. Hey, take care out there. Goodbye.
See you tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (52:35):
Doosh, doosh, doosh, doosh, doosh, doosh, doosh.

Speaker 3 (52:41):
Thank you.
