Speaker 1 (00:09):
You're listening to a podcast from News Talk sed be
follow this and our wide range of podcasts now on iHeartRadio, Rewrap, Oh.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Good idea and welcome to the Rewrap for Thursday. All
the best, but's from the mic asking breakfast on newsbooks.
He'd be in a sillier package. I am Glen Hart
and today, should all corporate entities have to do a
climate report like they have to do at the moment?
What is eyes off driving? And is it coming to
(00:46):
a car near you? Should we have the right to
repair or not? And if we should, should somebody who's
capable of turning up to Parliament to be in charge
of it? And then speaking of repairs, at Mike's issue
with his lights and his studio, we'll have to cover
that off at the end of the podcast. At the
(01:07):
beginning of the podcast. So it's Mega strike Day.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
How exciting a SEC staff I note adjoining today's striketh on.
It's almost a telethon esk by now, isn't It's got
the how big can it be? Type of vibe about it?
Radio New Zealand ranner what you Need to Know feature
kind of like the stories you see ahead of the
all Blacks and the Warriors games, what times kick off?
How much hot chips are? What's the weather forecast? A god,
of course is not on the striker's side. Today weather
(01:32):
very bad day for a lot of the country. Is
the much hyped second Front rolls over the nation. It's
always a test of resilience, I think, isn't it resilience
and determination the weather? Can you be bothered striking and
being wet? How much does the ink on your placard run?
Stuff like that, ACC of course, are the poster child
of public service dysfunction, which does raise the question are
they hopeless because of lack of funding or are they
(01:54):
just hopeless? They've had reports into them. One said it
was a gossipy culture. All I know is there billions
in the red and there doesn't seem to be a
very obvious novert turn around plan. What I also know
is the strike, of course, will achieve nothing except there
will be more to do on Friday, unless you're a
teacher who's having a teacher only day, which means there'll
be more to do on Tuesday. ACC strikers don't like
(02:15):
the work from home rules, which are down to two
a week. Of course, pre COVID there were none a week,
which simply shows how quickly slack habits form. They also argue,
and this is the teachers and the nurses as well
as ACC, that they should be offered more money to
cover inflation. Now, I've got no idea where all this
has come from. Work is about value, not the economics
of the day payers based on output and demand and revenue.
(02:37):
Covering inflation is simply cost plus accounting. It's doing the
same thing forever more amounts of money. Follow that to
its logical conclusion, and everyone's broke. But overall ACC staff
seem miserable, and that's no state to be. We all
have good days and bad days of work, of course
we do. But ultimately work should be fun. It should
be challenging, it should be surprising, It should be enriching
(02:58):
and rewarding. ACC seems like none of that, and a
strike will solve none of that.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
It's you do wonder if they'd just literally just ask
for more money with a they'd be getting a more
sympathetic response from people like my hosking. Yeah, actually, don't
worry about all that other stuff. We just want more
money please. That will make our job more bearable. See
any how it works with me rewrap. Imagine a part
(03:25):
of your job is putting together the climate report for
your company. That sounds fun, doesn't it.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Ah The lament Borold Radio New Zealand's obituary of the
CRD makes you weep climate related disclosures. Here was their
headline yesterday, New Zealand guts climate policy. It bragged about
to the world. That's your headline. What's most leading about
that headline? As the government who gutted it isn't the
government who bragged about it. They're two different governments. As
(03:56):
for the gutting and the world leading, world leading? And
what in what sense? We were simply the first to
the line with a pointless idea the first country if
you believe this government that made it increasingly hard to
get foreign money invested into our country because they just
produced another hurdle. All banks, insurers, enlisted companies.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
What for?
Speaker 3 (04:13):
It's very labor isn't it just to rope everybody in
whether it's relevant or not. Why didn't they make us
all write climate reports about ourselves. I mean, we've all
got a climate footprint. Airlines, sure, lot of emissions. Tell
us about them in your annual report. I get that
issues for insurance companies. Surely they would have done it anyway,
given that's basically their business. But turners good on turners,
you know, as in the cars as in TENA raise
(04:35):
relevant issues. One, it wasn't similar to Australia, way easier
in Australia. We were hobbling ourselves too. They opened themselves
up to prosecution. This is directors and things like that. Three,
it cost a fortune to get someone to write all
the mumbo jumbo that for many companies wasn't remotely necessary.
Even MB wrote a report saying the cost of all
is nonsense were prohibitive, But don't worry as long as
we're world leading. What labour never understood and no doubt
(04:57):
they still do now is putting the cost of business
up is counterproductive. Having our competitors outpace us because we're
bogged down is counterproductive. And even if we all wrote
glas glorious page page page page page after page about
our footprints and climate intent, what difference did any of
it make to the environment, What got changed or saved
(05:19):
or solved? The tragedy was too much of the media
got sucked into clearly still does sucked into the fields.
I mean, all you had to do was say, look,
it's a world first and then mix the words in
climate world first, and you had them hook line and sinker.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Yeah. I mean we all do live in the climate,
don't we, So we were all sort of participating in it.
And if we are a large organization of people, there
is a footprint, isn't there? But how important it is
to let everybody else know exactly what that is? I
(05:58):
guess it's the moot point. Dar, It's only the planet.
Let's not get too bogged down. Do you know what
the differences between self driving and eyes off driving? Know
me either? And I'm not sure that Mike's about to
fully explain it.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Note overnight that GM hot off their result yesterday, which
was quite a good one by the EV division, which
is a disaster. But they're now claiming by twenty twenty eight,
so we're only about two years away that their Google
Gemini artificial intelligence is going to be rolled out in
their vehicles. It gets rolled out next year, but over
the next three years they're going to launch their eyes
off driving. This is what they're claiming, So it's different
(06:34):
to autopilot. This is eyes off This is like, you
don't even need to do a thing. You can sit
in the boot if you want. And this thing's apparently
going to drive.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
It like kidnap yourself, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
And tie yourself up in the boot and then go
poop poop all the time your car's eyes off driving.
Do you believe any of that's going to happen?
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Sounds like something that would happen on a Khen Brothers movie,
isn't it kidnapping yourself? It's an interesting morning for that
sort of thing. We had Donald Trump saying that he
wants to charge himself damages and pay himself legal damages.
And then there was a bloke who's been part of
the one and one out policy in the UK slash France,
(07:15):
and he's gone back and again, so he's literally his
own one out one and ingredient to that. Have we
slipped into a parallel detension?
Speaker 1 (07:28):
The rewrap all right?
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Now, Whether or not you think it's a good idea
to be able to repair your stuff, it doesn't make
much difference if the right to Repair bill doesn't go
through because you didn't turn up.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
The funniest political story of the day. You can't make
the stuff up. The bill that was going nowhere anyway.
This is the Right to Repair Bill, Merrima Davidson's Right
to Repair Bill right. So, on the surface, it had
a kind of hokey, old world good vibe about it,
in the sense that, you know, would you like to
be able to go along to Harvey Norman and buy
a few bits and bobs to repair your transistor or
(08:02):
your lamp or your toaster.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (08:05):
Beyond that, was it ever realistic?
Speaker 1 (08:07):
No?
Speaker 3 (08:08):
So, and so she put this bill in the House
and I can't remember who it was. I think it
was New Zealand First who initially supported it, and that
would have given them the numbers to actually pass the bill. Now,
the problem with passing the bill, of course, and forcing
retailers to stock bits and pieces for parts that they
may or may not ever sell was it was course,
it was hopelessly inefficient, and they were never going to
(08:30):
do it. And all that, in reality was going to
happen is that they weren't going to import a whole
lot of stuff into the country, because why would you bother. Anyway,
New Zealand First, if I'm correct in saying it was them,
changed their mind once they worked out what I've just argued,
is the case. They suddenly realized in the real world,
that's not remotely going to work, so they pulled their support.
So this was going nowhere anyway, but it's in the house,
(08:51):
and yesterday it got to second reading. Now, the problem
with second reading is you need the person who sponsored
the bill to be in the house. Guess who wasn't
in the house. Marrama wasn't in the house. And everyone went,
where's Marramah for the second reading? And Marrama wasn't there,
And she wasn't there to be seen because she had
underestimated the speed at which the legislation would progress through
(09:13):
the house so speedy and so so fast, she couldn't
get back in time. So what happens when the sponsor's
not in the house, of course, as they say, is
no one here. They go right in the bin. That's
the end of that. So a whole year's worth of
work is up in smoke. So a bill that was
going nowhere anyway is now up in smoke. Officially needs
to be pulled once again from the biscuit tin, because
(09:35):
she couldn't even organize herself turned up on time. That's
the sort of business acumen that you're potentially going to
be electing to run this country next year. Good luck
with that.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
It is very satisfying when you repear your own thing. Though.
I had a vacuum cleaner stick stick vacuum. I won't
tell you the brand. It's not really germane to the story,
but it's one that I particularly enjoyed using. But then
(10:07):
at a stop work properly the mechanical rollerhead thing, you
know how that wizzard around. It stopped whizzing around. But
I was able to replace part of it. I found
out I found a bloke who could supply the part
that was the amazing thing, and then I was able
to replace that part, and away it went again, very
(10:28):
very satisfied, and it didn't cost much money either, a
lot less than a whole new vacuum. It is let's
say that so re wrap. So enough of me, am
I not so humble bragging about my DIY repairs. Maybe
they should ask me to try and fix the lights
in the studio.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
So I've had this light thing in the studio for
how many weeks? Months? Six weeks? So anyway the lights.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Go out, it's got to be longer than that.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Yeah, I reckon, it's longer than that, but I was
trying to be nice about it anyway, So I moaned
one day and I go, these lights are oll there,
crap fixed and put some new lights in. So they do,
and the new lights start breaking down almost immediately, and
so then I say, well, let's get some be under warranty.
Well there's no warranty where we got the lights from,
straight from Timu anyway. So I'm sitting here in the dark,
(11:16):
and it's taken literally weeks to how many people does
it take to change the light bulb? Well it doesn't
really matter how many peoples, how many weeks anyway, So
they do one, so one's back, the other one isn't anyway.
They can only because the lighting system in this building.
Listen to this with the stupidest idea in the world.
The lighting system in this building, this was what do
you call this an eco building? It was going to
save the world apparently eco building. Anyway, You've got to
(11:38):
turn off all the lights in the whole building to
change the lights in the studio. Have you ever heard
anything so stupid in your life? So we got to
wait for the week end crowd who work in the dark. Anyway,
So they're working in the dark, and Jason Pine wouldn't
even know the difference. So we turn all the lights
in the building out to put the one light back
in the studio.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
I saw them in here one day working on it.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Rubbish.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
No, no, no, it did not I did. There were
three people too, Interestingly, two of them were wearing high viz.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Did they have a ladder, Yes, there was a ladder.
Did they have scaffolding?
Speaker 1 (12:07):
No?
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Nos, scaffolding and then the no cones as far as
I could tell, no warning signs or anything like that.
But but why only two of the three in Hivers.
The person who wasn't wearing hivers had a laptop. They
sat on the floor and they were that was a
she to your sexst there she yeah, as she was
(12:30):
doing something with the laptop while the Hivers guys were
going up. And actually one of the Hiver's guys just
appeared to be sort of supervising everything else.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Do we have a stop going to get in the
studio which we had to stop going.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
What Mike has neglected to include in that telling of
the story is that it's this all stems from him
suddenly deciding one day that he didn't like the warm
white lights that were in there because somebody stupidly offered
to replace them with cold white ones. Why you want
to do that? I have no idea. I don't understand
(13:02):
people who like for the recent light or cold white light.
Why would you want that? But anyway, apparently in his mind,
and he is getting old and the eyesight is starting
to fail, so in his mind, he just sort of
perceived that they win his bride. So, yeah, it was
arranged to have the cold white ones and they've never
worked properly ever since, ever since they were installed those mons.
(13:26):
So I'm not sure that you can directly blame Mike
himself for those problems, but he's definitely a major part
of it. Let's just say that, and we'll come back
with more things that he has, more trouble he has
caused Tomorrow

Speaker 3 (01:10):
How exciting a SEC staff I note adjoining today's striketh on.
It's almost a telethon esk by now, isn't It's got

How much hot chips are? What's the weather forecast? A god,
of course is not on the striker's side. Today weather
(01:32):
very bad day for a lot of the country. Is
the much hyped second Front rolls over the nation. It's
always a test of resilience, I think, isn't it resilience
and determination the weather? Can you be bothered striking and
being wet? How much does the ink on your placard run?
Stuff like that, ACC of course, are the poster child
of public service dysfunction, which does raise the question are
they hopeless because of lack of funding or are they
(01:54):
just hopeless? They've had reports into them. One said it
was a gossipy culture. All I know is there billions
in the red and there doesn't seem to be a
very obvious novert turn around plan. What I also know
is the strike, of course, will achieve nothing except there
will be more to do on Friday, unless you're a
teacher who's having a teacher only day, which means there'll
be more to do on Tuesday. ACC strikers don't like
(02:15):

(02:37):
Covering inflation is simply cost plus accounting. It's doing the

its logical conclusion, and everyone's broke. But overall ACC staff
seem miserable, and that's no state to be. We all

It's very labor isn't it just to rope everybody in

Speaker 3 (06:11):
Note overnight that GM hot off their result yesterday, which
was quite a good one by the EV division, which
is a disaster. But they're now claiming by twenty twenty eight,
so we're only about two years away that their Google
Gemini artificial intelligence is going to be rolled out in
their vehicles. It gets rolled out next year, but over
the next three years they're going to launch their eyes
off driving. This is what they're claiming, So it's different
(06:34):
to autopilot. This is eyes off This is like, you
don't even need to do a thing. You can sit
in the boot if you want. And this thing's apparently
going to drive.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
It like kidnap yourself, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
And tie yourself up in the boot and then go
poop poop all the time your car's eyes off driving.
Do you believe any of that's going to happen?
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Sounds like something that would happen on a Khen Brothers movie,
isn't it kidnapping yourself? It's an interesting morning for that
sort of thing. We had Donald Trump saying that he
wants to charge himself damages and pay himself legal damages.
And then there was a bloke who's been part of
the one and one out policy in the UK slash France,
(07:15):
and he's gone back and again, so he's literally his

in the sense that, you know, would you like to
be able to go along to Harvey Norman and buy
a few bits and bobs to repair your transistor or
(08:02):
your lamp or your toaster.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (09:46):
It is very satisfying when you repear your own thing. Though.
I had a vacuum cleaner stick stick vacuum. I won't
tell you the brand. It's not really germane to the story,
but it's one that I particularly enjoyed using. But then
(10:07):
at a stop work properly the mechanical rollerhead thing, you
know how that wizzard around. It stopped whizzing around. But
I was able to replace part of it. I found
out I found a bloke who could supply the part
that was the amazing thing, and then I was able
to replace that part, and away it went again, very
(10:28):
very satisfied, and it didn't cost much money either, a

Listen to this with the stupidest idea in the world.
The lighting system in this building, this was what do
you call this an eco building? It was going to
save the world apparently eco building. Anyway, You've got to
(11:38):
turn off all the lights in the whole building to
change the lights in the studio. Have you ever heard
anything so stupid in your life? So we got to
wait for the week end crowd who work in the dark. Anyway,
So they're working in the dark, and Jason Pine wouldn't
even know the difference. So we turn all the lights
in the building out to put the one light back
in the studio.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
I saw them in here one day working on it.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Rubbish.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
No, no, no, it did not I did. There were
three people too, Interestingly, two of them were wearing high viz.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Did they have a ladder, Yes, there was a ladder.
Did they have scaffolding?
Speaker 1 (12:07):
No?
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Nos, scaffolding and then the no cones as far as
I could tell, no warning signs or anything like that.
But but why only two of the three in Hivers.
The person who wasn't wearing hivers had a laptop. They
sat on the floor and they were that was a
she to your sexst there she yeah, as she was
(12:30):
doing something with the laptop while the Hivers guys were
going up. And actually one of the Hiver's guys just
appeared to be sort of supervising everything else.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Do we have a stop going to get in the
studio which we had to stop going.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
What Mike has neglected to include in that telling of
the story is that it's this all stems from him
suddenly deciding one day that he didn't like the warm
white lights that were in there because somebody stupidly offered
to replace them with cold white ones. Why you want
to do that? I have no idea. I don't understand
(13:02):
people who like for the recent light or cold white light.
Why would you want that? But anyway, apparently in his mind,
and he is getting old and the eyesight is starting
to fail, so in his mind, he just sort of
perceived that they win his bride. So, yeah, it was
arranged to have the cold white ones and they've never
worked properly ever since, ever since they were installed those mons.
(13:26):
So I'm not sure that you can directly blame Mike
himself for those problems, but he's definitely a major part
of it. Let's just say that, and we'll come back
with more things that he has, more trouble he has
caused Tomorrow
