Speaker 2 (00:13):
On Radio Hodake. G'day, fellas.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
G'day, bro.
Speaker 4 (00:17):
Hello.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
How's everyone going today? Everyone good? I tell you what.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Jeez.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
I'm really excited. She wins. Went for a couple of
walks today. Not big ones, just around the city. She's
warming up, fellas.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
You reckon?
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Yeah, totally I do.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
I went for a walk today just with a T-shirt on.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Yeah, well, that's right.
Speaker 4 (00:35):
It's pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
It's got spring vibes about it, and I'm stoked.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Is there anybody... that loves falling for an early spring
like you, Hoodie Jay.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
I don't think there is.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Every single year we go through this.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
I know.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
The early dawn of the warmer season, you get all
excited and then you're back.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
Normally you're already fuming.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
And then it gets in and it warms up. You're like, yes,
you might get a week of good weather. I'm like, man,
it's going to turn.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
It's going to turn.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
I know. Then it turns again.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
I know that's true.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
Jeff it and Jeff it again.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
He says spring has sprung, fellas.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
He does. Every time. That's right. What I actually said
was I'm getting spring vibes. I'm not saying it has sprung.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
Oh, wow.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
You're walking a fine line.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
But having said that, Mogi, it's been a very mild winter.
We can't complain. It's been fucking amazing.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
It's been a great winter and a few cold snaps, obviously.
You wouldn't want to be homeless, as we've discussed.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
But I expect there's going to be a fucking shitload
of rain.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
I think so too.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
More than usual.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Wet.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
It's going to be moist.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
It's going to be a wet bastard.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
It's going to be moist, fellas.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Wet.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
How was your little date last night?
Speaker 3 (01:46):
I'll get into it on the show.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Okay. You will?
Speaker 3 (01:48):
I'd imagine so. We had a date, man. You're not
going to not talk about a date.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
Well, it was kind of just me and Mogi in
a store together.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
It wasn't really romantic. It wasn't romantic.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Well, I thought it was.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
Maybe it was.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
The pics, they look pretty romantic and romantic. You came
in today.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
He was hammering the red wines, old Keezy.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Yeah, well, of course he was.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
You see, he spots a red wine, mate. He's straight
in there. Straight into the free espresso martinis.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Keezy was giving me, when I came in today, sort
of 2 a.m. vibes. You know, like your date kicked on.
He'd had a few wines.
Speaker 4 (02:22):
I was at a Noel Leeming store till 2 a.m.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
And then there was a spa pool involved.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
That's right. Yeah, in the store.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
And maybe a bit of lovemaking. I don't know. I'm
just hazarding a guess. I'll just say you're not a
million miles away. Yeah, I don't think so. Not a
million miles away.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
Yes. You should have seen because there were mushroom arancinis.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
There were.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
And these little like beef cheek croquettes.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Yeah, they were all good.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
And I just said to the waiter, I said, can
you just grab all those trays and just tip them
on the.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Floor of the bathroom?
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:52):
And then I sort of got unchanged just down in
my boxes and then just got down on all fours
and just started mouthing it.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Absolutely gobbling them. How good, man.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
How good.
Speaker 4 (02:58):
Fuck, it was good.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
And the pork... Pork belly as.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Well was good. Yeah, pork belly was good.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Yeah, nice.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
I had my first arancini. Arancini. Arancini about a month.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
See, he's not been to Europe. That's why.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
First name Arancini. When I had my week off, we
were up in old Madakana there, and my wife bought
one at the market, and it was bloody delicious.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
Was it this big?
Speaker 2 (03:22):
It was about that big. It was like egg-shaped.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
For reference, it's about 10 centimetres.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
That's too big. That's not an arancini, Paul. Well, it was.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
You're thinking of a Scotch egg. You bought a Scotch egg, man. No,
it wasn't a Scotch egg. You're thinking of a cricket ball.
It was from an Italian joint and it was beautiful.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
But just because it's Italian doesn't make it an arachnid.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
It could have been a piece of pizza. Like that big.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Was it triangle shaped?
Speaker 2 (03:42):
No, it was spherical.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
It was spherical and you bought it from an Italian place.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
And what was in it? And it was rice.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Yeah, that's it. That's the bastard.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Some sort of beefy sort of thing.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
It was fucking delicious.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
He's bought our lasagna.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
That's a meatball.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
You bought a meatball there.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
With rice in it. Do you guys do your meatballs
with rice, do you? The Italians do. They're mad bastards. Oh, wow.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
Actually, they don't do it with rice. They do it
with risotto.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Risotto.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
Fellas, I just want a quick comment on that woman
who did the drawings of us all looking like Frankenstein.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
She's from America.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
I posted it. She said thanks. I said, we'll probably
talk about you on the show today. She said, I'd
be freaking delighted. Hello from New York City. You all
simply must visit here. Yeah. That's from Jackie.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
That is so lovely, wasn't it? Because I read the
blurb and I went, oh, my God, it's from the States,
for God's sake. I thought it was a local here.
How good.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
So her and her partner made a video game where
you play a trombone and it's quite a funny game.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
You like playing the trombone.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
You played one last night, didn't you?
Speaker 3 (04:45):
The front bone. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
So they're video game developers and they made this game
that went viral because they're listeners of our gaming podcast.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
Is that how they found it?
Speaker 2 (04:54):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
One way or the other.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
One way.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
Whether they found mine after listening to this or vice versa.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
There you go. It'll be good to know actually from
people out there because we've got, and we're able to
track this, such as the power of podcasting feels, but
we've got listeners in Morocco.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
A lot of them are Kiwis.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Probably.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Yes. We don't know. but it would be good to
hear from people.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Where are you?
Speaker 4 (05:18):
I do know.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
And how did you find this?
Speaker 4 (05:20):
That Moroccan, that's a Kiwi.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
They love it.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Totally. And I've heard from people, you know, that it
gives them a taste of home.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
It does, doesn't it?
Speaker 2 (05:29):
You know what I mean? Who told you that, Joe?
Speaker 3 (05:31):
It sounds like you're making it up.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Just fans.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
That's one of the most far-fetched things of ever.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Just fans, man.
Speaker 4 (05:36):
So someone came up to you and said, it gives
me a taste of home.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
I'll give you a taste of Big Show. No, someone messaged,
more than one person has messaged me with that.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Everyone's messaging you saying, hey, everyone out there, can you
just flick Hoiti J message on Instagram and just say,
it gives me a taste of home.
Speaker 4 (05:54):
The Hauraki Big Show, weekdays from 4 on Radio Hauraki.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Now that's good listening.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
And it's live.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
What are you listening to there?
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Oh, me?
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Oh, sorry.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
I was listening to the Radio Hauraki Big Show.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Right.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Four to seven weekdays.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
Yeah, that's quite specific. And iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
What?
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Cheers.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
The Hauraki Big Show Podcast.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Someone did come up to me yesterday, however, when I
was walking with my wife. And as he walked past.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Idiot.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
No, he said legend.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
Did he really?
Speaker 2 (06:32):
And I get that all the time in town.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Fuck you, the man.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
There's a lot of mental health issues in town.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
I can't help it. Well, I mean, I'm just me, man.
I mean, I can't. I mean, if people want to
call me a legend, who am I to disagree?
Speaker 1 (06:47):
That's true.
Speaker 4 (06:47):
Are you a legend, though? Because you clearly ate a
meatball and thought it was an arancini.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
Does that make you a backbone or an out-of-it kid?
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Aaron, yeah, no. To be specific about it, my wife
bought the arancini. I sampled it. I was curious.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
And it was egg-shaped and was about this big?
Speaker 2 (07:04):
No, not the size of a rugby ball, Keevy. That's
not the.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
Size of a rugby ball. That's fucking tiny.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
You know about that.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
An arancini ball is normally the size of a meatball, actually.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
So I'd say slightly bigger. The one I had in Rome, which, Jase,
you wouldn't be familiar with. It's a very important city
in Italy.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Very important city.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Why is it important?
Speaker 4 (07:28):
Well, it's just sort of one of the.
Speaker 5 (07:31):
One of the pillars of the modern world and how
our current society operates is thanks to Rome.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
And Aaron Cheney.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
Democracy wasn't founded there.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
The birthplace of democracy.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
No, well, Greece had it. Didn't they? The ancient Greeks
had democracy.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
Don't get me started on the Greeks.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
When are you guys going back to Europe since it
was so amazing?
Speaker 5 (07:50):
To be honest, Jase, I kind of see New Zealand
as being on holiday and Europe being my true home.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
So I'm currently on holiday I don't.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Know actually Jase but I'd like to go next year
I'm going next year when you guys because of course
people don't know this but of course you guys are
going away and old Mogi's going to be holding down
the fort yeah man like a fucking backbone.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
Imagine if it was you holding down an actual.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Fort I'm sure there'd be enough weapons you know it's.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
Like You know in those war movies where someone gets
injured and they're under attack.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
They're holding down the fort.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
And they hold the fort and they go, you guys go,
you go, and I'll hold them off.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
And they're like behind cover with a gun.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
But you're like, I'll beat them off.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
That's what I do, yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Because you've got a stick.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
You guys go away to Europe and I'll stay here
and beat them off.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
So they all break in and they go to kill you.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
You go, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Wait, what if I beat you all off? With a stick.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Or my hands.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Yes, yes.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
Anyway, thanks so much for that picture. Yeah, yeah, it's great.
It's good stuff.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Did we meet the guy that made the claymation?
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Oh, we did. The clay pot. We did, yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
Was it Welly? It was him, Welly, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
It was pretty backbone shit, wasn't it?
Speaker 4 (09:03):
I don't know if I met him, but I love
the ashtray. It fucking cracks me up.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Is it in here still? Oh, no, I haven't seen
it for a long time. I think someone's binned it
because nobody else liked it.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Jerry and Manai seem to clear out a lot of
our shit, have you noticed?
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Well, I don't mind that. Shit like what, though? I
like that. Oh, right. I went into my daughter's room today.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Why?
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Because I was vacuuming.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
As if.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
And I found half a cigarette. And I was like, ooh.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
It was fucking ripped into it.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Initially, I was. Yeah, man.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
And then you were like, hang on.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
And then I was like, hang on.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Hang about.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Win-win for Woody J.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
And then I chucked it in the bin.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
Good on you.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Did you?
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Yeah, no, I promise you I did. I haven't had
a durry since Brizzy.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Yeah, but you've been hanging off of vape, though.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Yeah. But that's fucking good for me.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
I don't think it is. Because the other night I
was on the vape And I didn't go and get
ciggies but I was blasting away on a vape So
you're just doing something else that's not.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
I meant financially Oh sure okay I'll take that Yeah
yeah yeah 10 bucks a week as opposed to I
tell you what it would be.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
200 bucks a week You wouldn't get through 230 grams
a week.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
No, no.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Packs.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
I'd get through four packs a week. Would you? Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Jeez, that's too many.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
You'd struggle, though, at your place. We have the apartment there.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Yeah, well, you're not allowed to smoke in there. Yeah, yeah.
I wonder if people do.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Do, yeah, they would.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Smoke inside.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Because your window's open.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Yeah, but... But people would be looking. Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
It's very visible to the public.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
But I wonder if you own the place, whether you
could do it.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Yeah. Probably... probably yeah I reckon you should be able
to it's your own personal space.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
But the smoking thing is a fire hazard.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Though right yeah maybe at the apartment block it would
be like no you can't do that yeah so.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
I guess you'll have to move out oh well nah
man once you smoke that half a ciggy it's going
to be all over for you man.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Yeah yeah well that's why I didn't because it'll just
trigger me yeah trigger doosh doosh doosh.
Speaker 5 (11:07):
When are you thinking of giving up the vape again
or are we going to save that for like content
at some stage do do a bet or something Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
I don't know. It's not on my agenda right now, Keezy. Nah,
you're all good, man. It's chill. It's just, you know,
it is what it is.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
How was hot pot last night?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Fucking good. Good shit.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
I'll ask about it on the show.

Speaker 4 (00:35):
It's pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
It's got spring vibes about it, and I'm stoked.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Is there anybody... that loves falling for an early spring
like you, Hoodie Jay.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
I don't think there is.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Every single year we go through this.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
I know.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
The early dawn of the warmer season, you get all
excited and then you're back.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
Normally you're already fuming.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
And then it gets in and it warms up. You're like, yes,
you might get a week of good weather. I'm like, man,
it's going to turn.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
It's going to turn.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
I know. Then it turns again.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
I know that's true.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
Jeff it and Jeff it again.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
He says spring has sprung, fellas.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
He does. Every time. That's right. What I actually said
was I'm getting spring vibes. I'm not saying it has sprung.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
Oh, wow.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
You're walking a fine line.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
But having said that, Mogi, it's been a very mild winter.
We can't complain. It's been fucking amazing.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
It's been a great winter and a few cold snaps, obviously.
You wouldn't want to be homeless, as we've discussed.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
But I expect there's going to be a fucking shitload
of rain.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
I think so too.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
More than usual.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Wet.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
It's going to be moist.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
It's going to be a wet bastard.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
It's going to be moist, fellas.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Wet.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
How was your little date last night?
Speaker 3 (01:46):
I'll get into it on the show.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Okay. You will?
Speaker 3 (01:48):
I'd imagine so. We had a date, man. You're not
going to not talk about a date.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
Well, it was kind of just me and Mogi in
a store together.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
It wasn't really romantic. It wasn't romantic.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Well, I thought it was.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
Maybe it was.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
The pics, they look pretty romantic and romantic. You came
in today.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
He was hammering the red wines, old Keezy.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Yeah, well, of course he was.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
You see, he spots a red wine, mate. He's straight
in there. Straight into the free espresso martinis.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Keezy was giving me, when I came in today, sort
of 2 a.m. vibes. You know, like your date kicked on.
He'd had a few wines.
Speaker 4 (02:22):
I was at a Noel Leeming store till 2 a.m.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
And then there was a spa pool involved.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
That's right. Yeah, in the store.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
And maybe a bit of lovemaking. I don't know. I'm
just hazarding a guess. I'll just say you're not a
million miles away. Yeah, I don't think so. Not a
million miles away.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
Yes. You should have seen because there were mushroom arancinis.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
There were.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
And these little like beef cheek croquettes.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Yeah, they were all good.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
And I just said to the waiter, I said, can
you just grab all those trays and just tip them
on the.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Floor of the bathroom?
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:52):
And then I sort of got unchanged just down in
my boxes and then just got down on all fours
and just started mouthing it.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Absolutely gobbling them. How good, man.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
How good.
Speaker 4 (02:58):
Fuck, it was good.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
And the pork... Pork belly as.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Well was good. Yeah, pork belly was good.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Yeah, nice.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
I had my first arancini. Arancini. Arancini about a month.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
See, he's not been to Europe. That's why.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
First name Arancini. When I had my week off, we
were up in old Madakana there, and my wife bought
one at the market, and it was bloody delicious.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
Was it this big?
Speaker 2 (03:22):
It was about that big. It was like egg-shaped.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
For reference, it's about 10 centimetres.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
That's too big. That's not an arancini, Paul. Well, it was.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
You're thinking of a Scotch egg. You bought a Scotch egg, man. No,
it wasn't a Scotch egg. You're thinking of a cricket ball.
It was from an Italian joint and it was beautiful.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
But just because it's Italian doesn't make it an arachnid.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
It could have been a piece of pizza. Like that big.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Was it triangle shaped?
Speaker 2 (03:42):
No, it was spherical.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
It was spherical and you bought it from an Italian place.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
And what was in it? And it was rice.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Yeah, that's it. That's the bastard.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Some sort of beefy sort of thing.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
It was fucking delicious.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
He's bought our lasagna.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
That's a meatball.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
You bought a meatball there.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
With rice in it. Do you guys do your meatballs
with rice, do you? The Italians do. They're mad bastards. Oh, wow.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
Actually, they don't do it with rice. They do it
with risotto.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Risotto.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
Fellas, I just want a quick comment on that woman
who did the drawings of us all looking like Frankenstein.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
She's from America.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
I posted it. She said thanks. I said, we'll probably
talk about you on the show today. She said, I'd
be freaking delighted. Hello from New York City. You all
simply must visit here. Yeah. That's from Jackie.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
That is so lovely, wasn't it? Because I read the
blurb and I went, oh, my God, it's from the States,
for God's sake. I thought it was a local here.
How good.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
So her and her partner made a video game where
you play a trombone and it's quite a funny game.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
You like playing the trombone.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
You played one last night, didn't you?
Speaker 3 (04:45):
The front bone. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
So they're video game developers and they made this game
that went viral because they're listeners of our gaming podcast.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
Is that how they found it?
Speaker 2 (04:54):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
One way or the other.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
One way.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
Whether they found mine after listening to this or vice versa.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
There you go. It'll be good to know actually from
people out there because we've got, and we're able to
track this, such as the power of podcasting feels, but
we've got listeners in Morocco.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
A lot of them are Kiwis.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Probably.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Yes. We don't know. but it would be good to
hear from people.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Where are you?
Speaker 4 (05:18):
I do know.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
And how did you find this?
Speaker 4 (05:20):
That Moroccan, that's a Kiwi.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
They love it.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Totally. And I've heard from people, you know, that it
gives them a taste of home.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
It does, doesn't it?
Speaker 2 (05:29):
You know what I mean? Who told you that, Joe?
Speaker 3 (05:31):
It sounds like you're making it up.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Just fans.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
That's one of the most far-fetched things of ever.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Just fans, man.
Speaker 4 (05:36):
So someone came up to you and said, it gives
me a taste of home.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
I'll give you a taste of Big Show. No, someone messaged,
more than one person has messaged me with that.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Everyone's messaging you saying, hey, everyone out there, can you
just flick Hoiti J message on Instagram and just say,
it gives me a taste of home.
Speaker 4 (05:54):
The Hauraki Big Show, weekdays from 4 on Radio Hauraki.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Now that's good listening.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
And it's live.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
What are you listening to there?
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Oh, me?
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Oh, sorry.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
I was listening to the Radio Hauraki Big Show.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Right.
Speaker 2 (06:12):

Speaker 3 (06:14):

Speaker 1 (06:19):
Cheers.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
The Hauraki Big Show Podcast.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Someone did come up to me yesterday, however, when I
was walking with my wife. And as he walked past.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Idiot.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
No, he said legend.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
Did he really?
Speaker 2 (06:32):
And I get that all the time in town.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Fuck you, the man.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
There's a lot of mental health issues in town.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
I can't help it. Well, I mean, I'm just me, man.
I mean, I can't. I mean, if people want to
call me a legend, who am I to disagree?
Speaker 1 (06:47):
That's true.
Speaker 4 (06:47):
Are you a legend, though? Because you clearly ate a
meatball and thought it was an arancini.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
Does that make you a backbone or an out-of-it kid?
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Aaron, yeah, no. To be specific about it, my wife
bought the arancini. I sampled it. I was curious.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
And it was egg-shaped and was about this big?
Speaker 2 (07:04):
No, not the size of a rugby ball, Keevy. That's
not the.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
Size of a rugby ball. That's fucking tiny.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
You know about that.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
An arancini ball is normally the size of a meatball, actually.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
So I'd say slightly bigger. The one I had in Rome, which, Jase,
you wouldn't be familiar with. It's a very important city
in Italy.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Very important city.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Why is it important?
Speaker 4 (07:28):
Well, it's just sort of one of the.
Speaker 5 (07:31):
One of the pillars of the modern world and how
our current society operates is thanks to Rome.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
And Aaron Cheney.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
Democracy wasn't founded there.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
The birthplace of democracy.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
No, well, Greece had it. Didn't they? The ancient Greeks
had democracy.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
Don't get me started on the Greeks.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
When are you guys going back to Europe since it
was so amazing?
Speaker 5 (07:50):
To be honest, Jase, I kind of see New Zealand
as being on holiday and Europe being my true home.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
So I'm currently on holiday I don't.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Know actually Jase but I'd like to go next year
I'm going next year when you guys because of course
people don't know this but of course you guys are
going away and old Mogi's going to be holding down
the fort yeah man like a fucking backbone.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
Imagine if it was you holding down an actual.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Fort I'm sure there'd be enough weapons you know it's.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
Like You know in those war movies where someone gets
injured and they're under attack.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
They're holding down the fort.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
And they hold the fort and they go, you guys go,
you go, and I'll hold them off.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
And they're like behind cover with a gun.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
But you're like, I'll beat them off.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
That's what I do, yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Because you've got a stick.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
You guys go away to Europe and I'll stay here
and beat them off.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
So they all break in and they go to kill you.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
You go, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Wait, what if I beat you all off? With a stick.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Or my hands.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Yes, yes.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
Anyway, thanks so much for that picture. Yeah, yeah, it's great.
It's good stuff.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Did we meet the guy that made the claymation?
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Oh, we did. The clay pot. We did, yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
Was it Welly? It was him, Welly, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
It was pretty backbone shit, wasn't it?
Speaker 4 (09:03):
I don't know if I met him, but I love
the ashtray. It fucking cracks me up.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Is it in here still? Oh, no, I haven't seen
it for a long time. I think someone's binned it
because nobody else liked it.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Jerry and Manai seem to clear out a lot of
our shit, have you noticed?
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Well, I don't mind that. Shit like what, though? I
like that. Oh, right. I went into my daughter's room today.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Why?
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Because I was vacuuming.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
As if.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
And I found half a cigarette. And I was like, ooh.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
It was fucking ripped into it.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Initially, I was. Yeah, man.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
And then you were like, hang on.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
And then I was like, hang on.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Hang about.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Win-win for Woody J.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
And then I chucked it in the bin.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
Good on you.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Did you?
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Yeah, no, I promise you I did. I haven't had
a durry since Brizzy.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Yeah, but you've been hanging off of vape, though.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Yeah. But that's fucking good for me.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
I don't think it is. Because the other night I
was on the vape And I didn't go and get
ciggies but I was blasting away on a vape So
you're just doing something else that's not.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
I meant financially Oh sure okay I'll take that Yeah
yeah yeah 10 bucks a week as opposed to I
tell you what it would be.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
200 bucks a week You wouldn't get through 230 grams
a week.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
No, no.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Packs.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
I'd get through four packs a week. Would you? Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Jeez, that's too many.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
You'd struggle, though, at your place. We have the apartment there.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Yeah, well, you're not allowed to smoke in there. Yeah, yeah.
I wonder if people do.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Do, yeah, they would.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Smoke inside.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Because your window's open.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Yeah, but... But people would be looking. Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
It's very visible to the public.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
But I wonder if you own the place, whether you
could do it.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Yeah. Probably... probably yeah I reckon you should be able
to it's your own personal space.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
But the smoking thing is a fire hazard.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Though right yeah maybe at the apartment block it would
be like no you can't do that yeah so.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
I guess you'll have to move out oh well nah
man once you smoke that half a ciggy it's going
to be all over for you man.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Yeah yeah well that's why I didn't because it'll just
trigger me yeah trigger doosh doosh doosh.
Speaker 5 (11:07):
When are you thinking of giving up the vape again
or are we going to save that for like content
at some stage do do a bet or something Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
I don't know. It's not on my agenda right now, Keezy. Nah,
you're all good, man. It's chill. It's just, you know,
it is what it is.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
How was hot pot last night?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Fucking good. Good shit.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
I'll ask about it on the show.
Speaker 5 (11:29):
