First Kuwiser on tour at the moment in New York,
but not just New York City, New York State. And
we're a little place called Riverhead, which is on Long Island.
And as we're driving in yesterday, what a picture is place?
This wall was right, the houses typical American houses, all
the pumpkins out the front and the flag's flying.

Speaker 4 (00:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (00:26):
And one thing we've noticed is we're having our chat,
is the house prices here a lot cheaper than New Zealand.
So look at you're looking around seven hundred thousand for
people summer houses. Now we're talking for like proper houses
for that five bedrooms, five bathrooms near.

Speaker 5 (00:43):
The water be double, all triple in New Zealand.

Speaker 6 (00:46):
Yeah, absolutely, Yeah, we're all moving here, which is a
great story.

Speaker 7 (00:50):
But yeah, the pumpkins, sayds are amazing.

Speaker 6 (00:52):
Obviously as we approached the holiday season in terms of Halloween,
he drove down the road and there's those big rapper
pumpkins that you see in America.

Speaker 7 (01:00):
Do we not get jet giant pumpkins and New.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
Zealand, but pumpkins everywhere. They have clusters out every door,
even inside. They have options other options like velvet pumpkins.

Speaker 6 (01:08):
That's right, and even massive fields of pumpkins growing in
the field.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
Bake with the pumpkin fields. Are all the sunflowers? Are
they somehow linked or something? I don't know, but the
same field we have sunflowers and pumpkins.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
And we're going to see pumpkins on steroids tonight because
we're going to the Great Jacquelantin Blaze, which is New
York's original Halloween event. So for a family activity like
this is going to be the day where I'm like,
oh god, I watch my kids were here.

Speaker 8 (01:30):
That's the thing.

Speaker 3 (01:31):
So that two million people you're going to see this thing.
And it's basically a whole bunch of jackeline has lit
up and what they do is they set it to music,
and so the Jackelantins start pretty much dancing with the lights.
It's like a light shot in jack lanterns. And there's
a little shop there called the boom Teak, which wore there.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
Yeah, it is going to be where I start spending
my first money, you know, because I pretend like I'm
the big spender as well.

Speaker 6 (01:52):
Run into this problem before and our credit cards suffer
for the entire where we start the chip going, We're
not going to do it this time.

Speaker 8 (01:57):
We're going to keep each other in Duke too.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
There hasn't spent any money yet, so she's desperate. So
we are actually going e biking. We're going to visit
a lantern today, the Montop Point Lighthouse, and then we're
going to e bike through the town.

Speaker 5 (02:10):
So I think this is going to be what we're
going to see your first.

Speaker 8 (02:12):
Purchases, which I'm excited about.

Speaker 3 (02:13):
I hope it's a pumpkin of some disc We're actually
the gateway of the Hamptons of the ladder On today,
so we fantastic. You hear there's those amazing holiday homes
for all the slibs, and apparently the ruler is the
higher the.

Speaker 8 (02:24):
Hedge, the more famous they are.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
You're going to talk to a gentleman about that who
knows Long Island life back has handled the ladder on
this morning. By the way, you can do this entire
trip too. You will have the exact same New York
adventure following our footsteps was Traveled USA, New Zealand's only
travel company focusing on one hundred percent on creating personalized
USA travel experiences for HUY travelers. All the details are
on our website at Coast online dot code on in Zen.
Have you heard the news Sir Cliff Richard is coming

(02:47):
to New Zealand next to November and there are ticket
details on a website right now Coast online dot code
on in z. That'll make some people happy.

Speaker 6 (02:59):
Oh yes, happiness is the key life is and longevity
and that's why a man called Dan Jutner has basically
focus his life to it being happy but also living longer.
He is the documentary maker that makes blue zones. So
he goes into those areas and looks at the places
where people live the longest and are the happiest, and
they're older and their elder older age.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
What's his deal? What's his background? Is he like a
scientist or something?

Speaker 7 (03:21):
No, I think he's a documentary maker.

Speaker 5 (03:23):
Oh, he's just like us.

Speaker 6 (03:24):
I think he's fallen into this, which is it's good
and bad because he does have some good theories, but
he takes it into some weird places. So he was
asked the other day what would you do to have
a happier life as you grow older, And he said
his first priority, Number one on the list is nine
and a half hours of sleep a day.

Speaker 7 (03:44):
Sleep is crucial.

Speaker 8 (03:45):
Who gets nine and a half hours a day?

Speaker 7 (03:46):
No one on the.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
Planet, No, I think. I think we come from a
we get up super early for our job. I reckon
there are people that are getting nine hours. Do you
reckon nine and a half might be a stretch, but
I reckon there are people that gett nine outs.

Speaker 6 (03:58):
People that have six hours of sleep are thirty percent
less happier.

Speaker 1 (04:02):
How many hours are you getting I'll be lucky to
get sex. I'd be getting at least seven every night,
at least yeah, yeah, Well I'm lucky if we get
five or five and a half. I just don't operate. My
body literally just breaks down. You don't you think though
some people can operate only sleep? Then absolutely?

Speaker 6 (04:18):
Do you know there's a theory on that they reckon
that women need more sleep because they do more thinking.

Speaker 8 (04:21):
I think that's all that makes sense.

Speaker 9 (04:24):
I mean, up here, don't they I'm geting to weigh
with three and I'm fine.

Speaker 7 (04:30):
I don't know what that is.

Speaker 6 (04:33):
I place based breakfast here because it gets rid of
sugar cravings and that you will be happy into the
day because you won't be hungry because of a plant
based breakfast.

Speaker 7 (04:41):
And he reasons it lasts longer.

Speaker 5 (04:43):
What's a plant mote?

Speaker 6 (04:45):
I'm literally copying this off as post what breakfast? Okay,
I love you.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
I don't know, because plant based isn't like it's not
just not meat exactly, it's otial oh, oatmeal plant. I
think that classifies as a plant based on this, sure
it does. Why we can plant based? Doesn't it mean
like actual plants? Because that's a great Well.

Speaker 8 (05:07):
That's what I think. Well, I don't know.

Speaker 5 (05:09):
I reckon, We've got to expindit for breakfast class.

Speaker 7 (05:13):
And it's with oats virtualization. Find someone to socialize four
to five hours a day.

Speaker 8 (05:19):
Oh that's crucial.

Speaker 9 (05:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (05:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (05:21):
And the final one is volunteering hour of your time
per day. Volunteering no, no, no, not a whole day,
an hour per day every day you need to dedicate
an hour of your time to someone else to make
the world a better place.

Speaker 5 (05:34):
I nearly have that. Four days a week of coaching
is volunteering every.

Speaker 7 (05:37):
Hour I can't work, doesn't it?

Speaker 5 (05:39):
Jimmy I don't know your life.

Speaker 7 (05:44):
I'm pretty happy, but maybe I'm just foolish.

Speaker 8 (05:47):
Two hours who knows.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
Great news, Peter Berling is now the most successful America's
Cup skipper in history, overtaking Jimmy Spittle's record, beating out
Russell coots Oh yeah, most successful.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
That's that's race wins, right, that's not cups, no races.

Speaker 5 (06:00):
Don't be confused by that.

Speaker 8 (06:03):
That's true. Russell Cootz never lost the Cup.

Speaker 1 (06:05):
Yeah, I was just yeah, I hope, I hope for
Burling's sake we get the Cup as well.

Speaker 3 (06:10):
But anyway, whatever happened is going to happen in the news.
You'll hear everything in a couple of minutes from now.
But we're in Long Island right now, in New York,
so part of New York State. And yesterday we made
our way here from it started with the age Huntington.
Huntington made away from Huntingdon through to Long Island, and
we stopped off a couple of wineries yesterday.

Speaker 8 (06:28):
Very nice.

Speaker 7 (06:28):
Yeah, it was nice to see you let your hear
down just a little bit. Jas at the wineries with
you today, you know, and drink wine.

Speaker 8 (06:34):
That's my problem. So this wine tasting thing that's real good.

Speaker 5 (06:40):
And the funny thing is what you do.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
So the first foot winery where you sit down and
these all these little sort of jars of wine, right,
and it starts reasling to the left, then rose, and
then it gets progressively more full body to we're in
the full have salves.

Speaker 6 (06:54):
And the funny thing is about those little jars is
that you also gifted a beautiful class. And I looked
over and saw my peasant radio co hosts drinking from
the vessel you mean to tip into your glass?

Speaker 1 (07:04):
Oh we were told not to mix the reasoning with
the full bodies like peanots.

Speaker 6 (07:09):
Oh no, but not to drink from the vessel that
it has only put there to give you your sample.
And I'd scorn down upon you. Do you know it
lower class?

Speaker 5 (07:16):
So we got it.

Speaker 1 (07:17):
We got a tour of the winery, we got taken
out the back and how they make it. One of
the interesting things we found out actually is, and this
is if you're a farmer, you'll be interested in this.
One of the big problems the farmers that the wineries
have is wild deer.

Speaker 5 (07:30):
So they have wild deer just roaming around, and it
feels like it would be like a wild.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
Deer just popping into one of our prominent vineyards in
New Zealand. Apparently they jump over the fences and they
come and just eat all.

Speaker 6 (07:41):
There everywhere, and they're not a going to shoot them.
They kind of protect it.

Speaker 5 (07:45):
What else roundhog and raccoon?

Speaker 6 (07:47):
Yeah, raccoons and the groundhog to me is like the unicorn.
I never actually thought it was a real thing.

Speaker 7 (07:54):
This point. I don't actually know what a groundhog looks like.

Speaker 8 (07:58):
I don't eat that well.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
M I know is groundhog is named after a groundhog,
which is a repetitive day right.

Speaker 8 (08:03):
The Bill Murray movie, Isn't it so right?

Speaker 7 (08:04):
Bill Murray movie?

Speaker 8 (08:05):
Bill Murray?

Speaker 5 (08:06):
Now like a wombat kind of thing.

Speaker 7 (08:08):
In my mind, it's a very similar animal to the wombat.

Speaker 8 (08:11):
In my mind, if I saw one, i'd probably make
a wish.

Speaker 7 (08:15):
I'm coming around the street.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
It's tody rodent is just exactly how I describe anyway.

Speaker 6 (08:21):
Oh no, it's kind of one of those little animals
that stand up at the zoo and it's like a
fat me acare it is?

Speaker 3 (08:29):
Anyway, if you already knew that we're not teaching nothing,
I get it. It is the seventeenth of October today, right,
which means now we're in a couple of weeks away
from Halloween, and you get into the spirit with Coast
Special iHeart Playlist on iHeart.

Speaker 8 (08:41):
Radio, it's Coast Halloween to search that.

Speaker 3 (08:43):
Speaking of Halloween, we're going to see a pumpkin blaze
like Jack o'lentin's tell you about that the latter on
because we're in New York.

Speaker 8 (08:48):
He flew here on the in New Zealand, we.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
Did, and we saw this movie on the plane that
we needed to talk about. And it's got particular relevance
because the two lead actors, Emily Blunt and Ryan Gosling.
Now at the moment, you know how Ryan got thing
we know him best from he shot to start him
in the movie The Notebook with Rachel McAdam. Well that
The Notebook is one of the big musicals here in
New York on Broadway at the moment that everyone is

(09:10):
talking about. But we got to watch Ryan Gosling in
a different type of film. It's called fall Guy. And
I had no idea what this was. I didn't realize
it meant he literally has a fall.

Speaker 6 (09:20):
Yeah, Well, he's a stuntman and a stunt that goes
terribly wrong, and that's the premise of the film, is
basically fighting back from a seprible injury.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
He doesn't fight back well because essentially for an entire
year he's so embarrassed that he just hides away and
he ends up barking cars.

Speaker 6 (09:35):
I rate this film highly, and just not just because
me and Ryan go way back. He might remember, Oh,
that's right, that's right. This is another story I tell
fifteen times a year. But when he was young Hercules
in New Zealand, we were boys and I basically dropped
him back to his apartment after we shot it for
a couple of days on Young Hercules set.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
I wish he'd stayed in touch me too, because then
we could have benefited from this relationship.

Speaker 7 (09:56):
Nodred percent.

Speaker 6 (09:57):
Yeah, he drive around with me and the and just
said it on my nine ninety five g T I
pulsa for the man, now is he?

Speaker 1 (10:07):
You know?

Speaker 3 (10:07):
The movie's really funny, So you're right, he's a stunt guy.
But he falls in love with one of the camera
for camera women who ends up becoming a director while
he's on light and hiding. Her career flourishes and they
sort of trick him into coming back on set.

Speaker 8 (10:19):
She had no idea.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
She's so angry because he boasted. After he has the fall,
he's so embarrassed. He just doesn't talk to her for
a year and they had this fling going on, and
when he comes back, she's so angry. She's like, who
let this guy on my set? And then we're piecing
it together from here. He doesn't lose shape in that year,
though I thought that was a bit unrealistic. I thought
it was really downtron and he feels like eating burgers

(10:40):
every day.

Speaker 8 (10:41):
He looks been with the broken backs.

Speaker 3 (10:43):
But one of the funny thcenes I thought was when
he finally catch stut with her and he goes to
sit to this truck outwards and he's crying listen to
Taylor Swift.

Speaker 8 (10:52):
The camera sort of zooms that she said it is
steering it the Emily Blunt look. Anyway, it's tall four guy, And.

Speaker 3 (10:59):
I mean, if he had to head to only out
of five, what.

Speaker 8 (11:01):
Do you reckon? It's a four out of five for me?

Speaker 7 (11:04):
For me?

Speaker 3 (11:05):
Yeah, looking up full guy with Ryan Gozing and Emily Blood,
you won't be disappointed. Really exciting news because next week
the Young Plumber of the Year contest goes down. It's
going to go to the Hamilton and one of the
guys who's up for the award is Liam Fox joins
us on the phone.

Speaker 8 (11:17):

Speaker 10 (12:07):
Every Plumbing World store has a has like an evening

And then they divided up into regions so then you
go to the regional one and yeah, is it.

Speaker 5 (12:20):
A challenge like a time set thing, like what kind.

Speaker 7 (12:22):
Of things do you have to do for the challenge?

Speaker 10 (12:26):
But just just sort of normal every day plumbing stuff.
They have your work on taps and they and then
that sort of thing. Put a toilet together, put a
shower shower trap together. That's sort of that sort of thing.

Speaker 3 (12:41):
Massive respect for you guys, leam, because I mean, I
know there's like eight thousand people working as plumbers and
guess fitters and train layers across the country. And I
tried to do some DIY stuff. My wife dropped her
ring down the sink and so I had to undo
everything done underneath. And that's a took me like two days.
Just think there's one bloody ring out.

Speaker 10 (12:57):
Yeah, it can be. It can be a bit messy
and difficult.

Speaker 8 (12:59):
Yeah, I don't blame you.

Speaker 6 (13:01):
Imagine imagine how much Liam you'll be able to charge
now when you know you're Liam Fox Plumbing and if

Surely you're you're around turn of bucks an hour now, wouldn't.

Speaker 10 (13:16):
You no, nor try to keep it a bit lower
than that.

Speaker 5 (13:19):
Liam.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
I want to know how you got into this in
the first place, just for young budding plumbers out there.
When did you decide this is going to be the
career for me? How young were you?

Speaker 10 (13:29):
I was about eighteen and sort of. I'm always been
interested in sort of things like water conservation and that
sort of thing which we do heapside and plumbing, so
that was the main thing that that got me into it,
and also the gas side of things I was always

(13:49):
really interested in.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
And you've also got a really good name to enter
into the Young Plumber of the Year, right Liam Fox, No.

Speaker 5 (13:56):
One's forgetting that name when you win, So come on.

Speaker 8 (13:58):
Don't let us down. Congratulations alivery beasts.

Speaker 3 (14:01):
So it's next Wednesday, ten young plumbers from across the
country and a battle it out at Claudland's and Hamilton.
Now what they have to do and just have four hours?
They have to build a full bathroom.

Speaker 5 (14:09):
Amazing, Yeah, no appreciate instead of doing it at Cordlands.
Would you like to come to my place? HI won't
be judge.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
You.

Speaker 8 (14:18):
Well done and scorn.

Speaker 5 (14:22):
Coasts feel good.

Speaker 2 (14:23):
Breakfast to Catch Up podcast with Coasts Tony Street, Jas
Reeves and Sam Wallace.

Speaker 3 (14:28):
Feeling really good this morning. I love this headline end
of crushing price rises. Did you see this yesterday? Inflation
has fallen across the country. Fuel prices are down eight percent.
Veg's are down eighteen percent, which is wonderful. So soon enough,
house price is going to be okay because interest rates
will come down. You could buy that castle.

Speaker 5 (14:43):
Oh, this great news. In fact, we were actually shot.

Speaker 1 (14:46):
So we went to a place called Oheeka Castle. It's
in Long Island here in New York state, right, and
we were shocked to hear that. Gary the owner who
we actually met like, he came round and seen hi
to us during lunch.

Speaker 5 (14:58):
He bought it for a one point four million Yeah.

Speaker 7 (15:01):
And it there.

Speaker 6 (15:01):
It has spent thirty seven million dollars renovating it and
fall fact twenty two acres in New York. So I
can't imagine what it's worth.

Speaker 8 (15:10):
Now.

Speaker 3 (15:10):
You're so right, But you were saying before Sandloe, he
wanted to build the original guy who built it way
back in nineteen nineteen, he wanted to build it on
a hill, but there was no hill in Long Island,
so he literally built the hill. So he was into
like railroads or something, so he built the train track,
then got the train involved, and when they were digging
out the subway in Manhattan, took that dirt to his
place in Long Island and then made a hill.

Speaker 7 (15:31):
Put a house on it.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
That's what multimillionaires do. But I just want to set
the scene because when we arrived at this place, you think,
beautifully manicured gardens, there's a golf course. You pull into
this French like castle and what do we see. First
of all, we get told we can't go through the
normal way because there is a music video being made.
And then of course we were scrouching around, going, oh,

(15:54):
this is exciting.

Speaker 8 (15:55):
Who was it?

Speaker 1 (15:55):
Because we soon learned that some very famous people have
been at this castle, like Taylor Swift where she shot
her music video for blank Space. We're going to talk
more about that because we really embraced that. But there
was a wrapper there at the time, clueled Pusher Tea
and we didn't know who pusha t was pretended not
we will fully know. Yeah, three and a half million

(16:19):
followers on social media and so then it was a
bit of a mission for us to catch a glimpse
of this guy, and Sam, I thought you were going
to get thrown out at one point.

Speaker 7 (16:26):
Well I got more than a glimpse, sadies and gentlemen.

Speaker 6 (16:28):
I got the camera and I filmed iced tail or
whatever his name is. And yeah, there was some big
old security guys. Give me some filthy lots.

Speaker 5 (16:36):
O the biggest scariest security guard you've ever seen.

Speaker 7 (16:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (16:38):
The funny thing is, after looking at what pusha Tea
had been doing, he had pretty much mocked up what
Taylor Swift did when she filmed her video.

Speaker 7 (16:45):
There she sat in the lot. You know, they both
sat in.

Speaker 6 (16:47):
The library with books behind them at a desk, and
then they both sat out in the fore court with
a very expensive old car. Now, when you compare the
old cars, pusha t didn't do too bad. I think
he had an old SL five hundred.

Speaker 8 (16:58):
Was it Mercedes with the gull wing doors that open up?

Speaker 6 (17:01):
Yeah, Taylor Taylor Switz in her video she did it
with an Acy Cobra, So I'm giving her the wind.

Speaker 8 (17:06):
I love that plain the features.

Speaker 3 (17:07):
So basically driving, as Tony was saying, this manicure garden,
think Downton Abbey on Long Island and it's just a
phenomenal beautiful place and there are some famous weddings that
have been here. I mean it is now one of
the most prestigious wedding venues in the world.

Speaker 1 (17:19):
One of the Jonas brothers got married there and we
stood in his reception venue, and then they proceeded to
tell us that they pulled up the wooden floor and
put an ice skating ring.

Speaker 8 (17:28):
Skateboard ball, skateboard bowl.

Speaker 5 (17:30):
What so his skating bowl was his wedding reception?

Speaker 8 (17:33):
Who does that? Bites for skating? Who's twenty years old
and he got married.

Speaker 5 (17:36):
Married, Yeah, he lasted how good?

Speaker 6 (17:38):
Seeing The point here though, is that he got the
most one of the most beautiful historic settings in the
world and then tore up the floor and put a
skateboard park in.

Speaker 5 (17:50):
His wife is very very she goes along for the ride.

Speaker 3 (17:53):
Doesn't But he's not the only famous wedding Hello nin Sync,
you know Joey for Tony from.

Speaker 1 (17:57):
En Sync, Adam Sandler his movie there the Week Old.
It was really weird to go through the halls and
think this is where these famous for and.

Speaker 3 (18:09):
Suictan Kine, that really famous Michael Kaye movie. I think
it is Susan Kaine. I think I got the right actor. Yeah,
that was shot there too.

Speaker 6 (18:15):
We need to talk more about Gary, the guy that
owns it now though, so obviously here survives an assassination
attempt and very very hospitable brought us out a shot
of bourbon.

Speaker 7 (18:23):
Each two and fifty US dollars glass.

Speaker 3 (18:26):
Because Gary, he did. He showed us a photo of
when he was almost assassinated. It was I couldn't think
him enough for that.

Speaker 5 (18:32):
It was the whole mafia link thing, right, do you know?

Speaker 7 (18:35):
Because the Marfia doesn't kill you if you owe them
money money.

Speaker 1 (18:38):
Well, if Gary has links to the mafia, I now
do too, because he's.

Speaker 8 (18:41):
Got my number.

Speaker 3 (18:43):
He's a good man's love because he drinks half a
bottle of bourbon every night and his cheapest bottle is
six thousand dollars.

Speaker 8 (18:48):
Shears it.

Speaker 1 (18:49):
She is exactly dust the bullet in his head. Yeah.
I didn't real feel like any that I needed another
drink though.

Speaker 3 (18:56):
Anyway, Details about this trip and how you could do
it as well or coastal light on cot In Z.
When you're in the States, you might notice something about
the bathrooms.

Speaker 6 (19:04):
Yeah, today's day we are going on a quest to
find the winter green bathrooms. Now, I talked about this
when I was up in Seattle as well. Uh, they
don't always go floral in the bathrooms here. They sometimes
go to a minti town. And that flavor is winter green. Now,
if you don't know what winter green is, it is
the taste of I guess root beer. It's also the
taste of some peppermint flavored chewing gum.

Speaker 3 (19:27):
And you're talk about the smells of the bathroom, right, yeah,
like the air freshener, they're yeah, And we don't do
it in New Zealand.

Speaker 7 (19:32):
We don't go to the minty town. In terms of
our cleaners and stuff like what do we do we
go to floral town? Do we? We always go to floral.

Speaker 1 (19:40):
My favorite spray. Likely we're doing about toilets right, A
couple There is a there is a central New Zealand
called Mountain Air.

Speaker 5 (19:52):
Yes, and I really like that and.

Speaker 1 (19:54):
It's refreshing because anything that's kind of in that popery
floral zone can really be sickly. I think when you
get an air free shit in your car, Yeah, that's not
real leavend.

Speaker 7 (20:05):
But I just this is what this is what it
always blows me away.

Speaker 6 (20:08):
It's while we're talking about it, is the fact that
the mint, when it goes to mint, it's a very
clean smelling fragrance, as opposed to pot pourri, which could
turned into a tangled wreck of both.

Speaker 8 (20:22):
Do well.

Speaker 3 (20:23):
So the big question that I forget going to look
at the famous people's houses, the Hampton's, can we find
the mint toilet?

Speaker 8 (20:28):
That's the big queen.

Speaker 6 (20:29):
When we do, we're gonna, we're gonna bring in the
microphones and we're gonna we're going to record all of us.

Speaker 5 (20:37):
We knew you at your toilet today in New Zealand.
Just take note what is the sense?

Speaker 1 (20:43):
You know?

Speaker 8 (20:44):
But don't don't ever text us what that is.

Speaker 3 (20:46):
Yesterday, we're on this big journey around the Long Island
area and went to a place called Ahica Castle where
the TV show Succession has been filmed there Citizen Kane,
that movie was shot there, but also Taylor Swift did
the music video for this song there.

Speaker 7 (21:03):
You can tell.

Speaker 5 (21:13):
It's such a good video clip. So if you can't.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Remember what happens in it, Essentially, Taylor is all dressed
up and she's got her very deber near love interest
with her at this castle, which is Ohee Castle, and
she goes around the castle.

Speaker 5 (21:26):
She ends up smashing up his.

Speaker 1 (21:28):
Car because he obviously doesn't behave and so she goes
through the halls of the castle. She's at this big
grand entrance. She's running through the manicured bushes, and we
decided that we should re enact that video because all
the iconic sites were right in front of us.

Speaker 5 (21:43):
It's the same.

Speaker 6 (21:44):
Yeah. We walked into the lobby of the castle and
we're like, oh my god, this is straight out of
Taylor's first video and there's the staircase, the rails, it
was all there and it looked identical or even the plants.

Speaker 5 (21:53):
Nothing's changed, nothing has changed.

Speaker 6 (21:55):
So during our lunch break, instid of sitting down and
enjoying our food, we decided, no, We're going to go
make a Tailor Swift video. So we grabbed the camera
and went down there and we cast a few roles.
We cast Tony Street as Taylor Swift, we cast me
as the deviney love interests, and we cast Jason as
the horse.

Speaker 5 (22:10):
One other character in there was a white horse.

Speaker 6 (22:13):
We think Jace did a better job as a horse,
and I did loves.

Speaker 1 (22:20):
Work because this horse was white, and of course Jason's snowy,
and he happen to have a bit of a cud
like expression on. In this particular clip, we.

Speaker 7 (22:31):
Used to shut off off the wind. Jason weird with
his mouth and it was really horse like.

Speaker 8 (22:38):
This idea, do this thing and you're gonna be the horse.

Speaker 3 (22:41):
Wait what but I've already got the shot.

Speaker 8 (22:44):
Anyway, you have to go and say, this was.

Speaker 1 (22:46):
The funnest thing we've ever done, and you will be
would at how similar not necessarily how we look as
the characters, but the scenes are at least.

Speaker 7 (22:55):
The shot selection was very good. The acting tear well.
I have to say, Tony is a pretty good tailor.

Speaker 8 (22:59):
Swift agree extra.

Speaker 1 (23:01):
Hand on a black lacy top and some red Livy
the notes from Sam.

Speaker 3 (23:07):
Anyway, you can see it if you want to go
and have a long and you really you should at
Instagram at Coast Breakfast you'll see it just there. Sel GP,
which is going to be on our water in January. Right,
they're going to change they're the same boats for change
the foils. They're going to use high speed t foils,
which a is gonna make the boats even faster.

Speaker 5 (23:23):
Okay, so how did they work, Jason?

Speaker 8 (23:26):
They they make the boats faster.

Speaker 7 (23:30):
A little bit of an explanation I'm doing over here.

Speaker 6 (23:32):
So at the moment, they've got L foils, now they've
got T foils now. I don't know if you know
if the how the alphabet works, but if you just
look at the shape of those letters, it tells you
the entire story.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
It's going to balance it out, isn't it, because L
is a bit lopsided.

Speaker 6 (23:47):
Suddenly now you're not leaning as much because you're a
straight thanks to the extra line on the tee.

Speaker 1 (23:51):
Can we just say, though, I'm excited that we've got
yachting coming to New Zealand shores with the America's couple bay.

Speaker 5 (23:57):
At the moment to have that.

Speaker 1 (24:00):
In the using all of the America's cup facilities that
we built. Remember during COVID, so five point.

Speaker 6 (24:06):
Five kilometers faster upward Canada with tfoils has reached over
one hundred kilometers per one hundred and one point nine
to eight kilometers per hour, which is absolutely flying.

Speaker 8 (24:15):
Go to T bars you all T foil.

Speaker 7 (24:20):

Speaker 9 (25:10):
So what is your job title at Discovel Long Island?
What's today? I'm the International Sales Specialist, right okay?

Speaker 8 (25:20):
And hello?

Speaker 9 (25:20):
Have you been loving Long Island for Actually, I've been
working for Long Island for the last seven years, but
been this incredible travel industry for the last forty. Wow,
so this is a having you guys here, it's like
almost like my graduation.

Speaker 5 (25:34):
Oh well, we love being here.

Speaker 1 (25:36):
What would be the most common misconception do you think
about Long Islands that you had to try and change
people's mind on.

Speaker 9 (25:43):
Well, it's like everyone knows New York City. New York
City has been a part of the travel equation for
the States and for America for centuries literally, and then
you know the Long Island exists, but you don't really
know what it is about Long Island. And you saw
it you got into Huntington, you start seeing all these

(26:04):
wide open spaces. You end u about a castle on
twenty acres in an hour from New York City. And
like you said before, it's not a concrete jungle anymore.
It's these beautiful forests. There's deer and wild hogs and
ground hogs, and it's a whole new world right next
to something you're so familiar with, which is New York City.

Speaker 8 (26:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (26:26):
So what have we got on the agendas today?

Speaker 6 (26:28):
Because we're heading out to I mean, obviously one of
the big things out this way is the houses, the properties,
the celebrity houses, but also it's.

Speaker 7 (26:34):
On a beautiful Beach, right.

Speaker 9 (26:35):
The beaches on the south side of the island from
Jones Beach all the way to the Hamptons are some
Ofe's most amazing beaches, some white sandy beaches with them,
Like you said, beautiful homes. But remember what the history
of Long Island is back in the twenties, especially all
the people that had a ton of money in the
city had money, but they had no land. So what

(26:57):
they did they bought their summer homes or weekend getaways
on Long Island. And all the way from the little
castles that you saw like Ohica, all the way to
some of the mansions and homes that we'll see tomorrow
or not later on today in aountants.

Speaker 1 (27:10):
Yeah, and I think for Kiwi's we love the experience
of New York City, but we also like a bit
of relaxed time, right, And that's what it feels like here.
It's a bit of a slower pace. And tonight we're
going to go to the Pumpkin Blaze, and that is
quintessential American holiday, right.

Speaker 9 (27:26):
It's Halloween and the whole it's like the beginning of
the holidays, and it's showcase at the Glaze, which is
an amazing, humongous pumpkin patch and the kids are kids,
the families are there. It's really it is the beginning
of the holiday season and it's thrown in all its

(27:47):
glamour at the Blaze tonight.

Speaker 1 (27:48):
If you have a family and you bring them to
New York, how can you not go and see us?

Speaker 7 (27:53):
I have to What don't they call it a blaze?

Speaker 8 (27:55):
Is there a fire?

Speaker 7 (27:56):
Like a bonfire? Is all of the fact that the
pumpkins are all lit up?

Speaker 8 (28:00):
I don't.

Speaker 9 (28:00):
I think just call it the blaze because it's just glows.
It's yeah, it's colorful, and I don't think I think
they might might be able.

Speaker 8 (28:09):
To see a fire too.

Speaker 3 (28:11):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, because it's like two million people go
to this thing and it's like it's like a light
show year.

Speaker 8 (28:15):
They light up the dam the artists coming half with.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
Pumpkins to make these Jecky landons, right, and so they
will put lights in them and alvisoly like with candles
like traditionally the sits like a personalized soundtrack and they'll
start dancing, the lights start dancing.

Speaker 9 (28:28):
It's even they I've read about it. I can't wait
to see it. It's like a little Broadway Show right
here on Long Island. But it's all themed with Halloween
and the pumpkins and the patches and the kids. It's
super fun.

Speaker 8 (28:41):
And a lot of celebrities hang out on Long Island too,
right they do.

Speaker 5 (28:44):
I have a list of them. Do you want to
run us through somehow?

Speaker 9 (28:46):
Right? Well, I mean I remember because I actually went
to university here many years ago, and I'm not going
to say how long ago, at the beginning when Billy
Joel was starting, right, So people like Billy Joel or
Paul Simon justin Timberlake, and then some some of the
celebrities like Brooks Shields, Jennifer Lopez, Jerry Seinfeld, Robert de Niro.

Speaker 5 (29:08):
At Gwyneth Paltrow. They all have houses here.

Speaker 8 (29:10):
Another thing is we go for a bit of a
tour on other day. We're going to take as many
fighters as we possibly can.

Speaker 3 (29:14):
You can follow us be into a post breakfast on
Instagram and Facebook. But I have to warn you. If
the higher the hedge you see these big tall.

Speaker 9 (29:20):
Hedges, this means they're more famous, right, the more famous,
to higher the hedge, So we're gonna have to like
look in between the hedges to see who lives there far.

Speaker 8 (29:28):
Up the drone. It's really good. We got we got
this cover guy taking through bushes.

Speaker 3 (29:32):
Anyway, you follow us from beginning. Everything you need to
know is a Coast Online dot cot on ins. We're
doing a big pumpkin blaze tonight in New York. We'll
got all have all the fighters and everything on at
Coast Breakfast on Instagram and Facebook. But speaking of Halloween,
you can get the spirit with Coasts Special iHeartRadio playlist.

Speaker 8 (29:48):
Just look the Coast Halloween just there.

Speaker 7 (29:49):
And I think what.

Speaker 6 (29:50):
I'm about to just say is going to be pertinent
tonight as well, because it is the statement that fills
me with a huge amount of dread. And what's going
to happens to night at some point and we're all
going to get together and we're going to have a
group photo and.

Speaker 7 (30:04):
Then some all out of the words, Now for the
crazy one.

Speaker 3 (30:09):
God, And when you clam up, you clam up when
someone says now for the crazy one.

Speaker 6 (30:16):
I literally don't know what to do. How crazy do
you want me to get for this photo?

Speaker 10 (30:21):
Like?

Speaker 7 (30:21):
Are we talking like a tongue out? Are we talking
a shukka? Do you want me to punch someone? In
the face. How crazy do you want me to go?

Speaker 8 (30:29):
I hear, what's a crazy face?

Speaker 5 (30:31):
Everyone's got to go to crazy face? I know what
mine is, what is yours? So my normal face is
just nice smile.

Speaker 1 (30:36):
And then when it's crazy one, I just opened my
mouth and go I did the same like real wide mouse,
I do like kind of like.

Speaker 7 (30:47):
What is the correct dancer?

Speaker 2 (30:48):
How?

Speaker 7 (30:49):
How crazy do you want me to pick someone up?

Speaker 1 (30:51):
No?

Speaker 7 (30:51):
Do you want me to do like the dirty dancing
thing and hold my head? How crazy are we going?

Speaker 8 (30:55):
You're right?

Speaker 3 (30:55):
But even even on a normal photo, I freak out too, my.

Speaker 8 (31:00):
Hands on head on a popet, I don't know.

Speaker 6 (31:02):
We just end it from this point, and there should
be no moment that anyone ever says now for the
crazy one, because.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
I think the crazy photo often looks the best. Now,
all you need to do don't try and take it
to full crazy town. All they want right is a
different body position. So you're standing the norm for a post.
Just pull your arms out wide and do jazz hands.

Speaker 3 (31:23):
See your crazy photo and I'll raise you to Okay,
everyone just jumped, and you do a jump shot.

Speaker 8 (31:27):
I can't stand the jump.

Speaker 7 (31:30):
You get.

Speaker 6 (31:30):
The problem is when you get a bit older, you
jump and the only thing that lifts the groutlift of
the ground as your Titi.

Speaker 3 (31:40):
Spoiler alert, we're talking celebrity trees Ryland right now.

Speaker 8 (31:47):
So the winner was found last night, I know, did
you see this?

Speaker 1 (31:50):
So we've been following it from the beginning JP folarchy
and we actually interviewed JP when he was performing in
a massive show here, a massive musical and.

Speaker 5 (31:58):
He was the nicest guy. We all loved him.

Speaker 10 (32:00):
Really.

Speaker 1 (32:01):
What was the show again, I can't remember the name
of the show, but he was all dressed and read
as like a band member.

Speaker 8 (32:08):
That's right, it was the music with the band. I
think it was just called the band or the Brass
Band or something.

Speaker 5 (32:12):
But you know what it's all come down to again,
a puzzle.

Speaker 1 (32:15):
And I'm looking here in the Herald article and Christian Cullen,
I'm not a big puzzler, and it turns out he
wasn't because he could he could bring home JP.

Speaker 4 (32:24):
He has just made it into a select elite group
of all of the if you will fame of the
effectively you've got this.

Speaker 7 (32:34):
You're a perfect humuator.

Speaker 6 (32:35):
You can not only puzzle, you can you can perform
all sorts of useless tasks.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
People say, That's what people said about Sam after ct I.

Speaker 8 (32:44):
He came across this the perfect people say, all blacks
captain of the time, Richie McCully. No, what of the
prime ministers know above that? But who's above the prime minister?
It is right there.

Speaker 6 (32:52):
Look it, Maddie McLain's three attempts, but he got there eventually.

Speaker 3 (32:57):
Anyway, Congrants safety. We are in New York and yesterday
we went to a castle where the movie Citizen Kane
was filmed. Succession the TV series was shot there and
the music video from Taylor Swift's blanks based song, which
one MAT's Tony and Sam decided to recreate and cast
me really, especially as the horse.

Speaker 8 (33:12):
Anyway, it was.

Speaker 5 (33:12):
The only character left.

Speaker 8 (33:14):
I'm sorry. You can see it at Coast Breakfast on Instagram.
But the reason we hear is for this Towney streets,
ten thousand dollars, bitch Spender, Big Apple.

Speaker 3 (33:24):
And beyond, and I think it's beended win is there's
a ten thousand dollars cash to play within New York.

Speaker 8 (33:31):
You've been here what two days now? How are you feeling?
Good morning? Sorry, good my morning.

Speaker 5 (33:36):

It's amazing.

Speaker 11 (33:42):
Yeah, jet leg wearing off and we're just having so
much fun.

Speaker 5 (33:46):
Isn't it crazy?

Speaker 1 (33:47):
How we haven't done Manhattan yet, but we've done the
wider New York. We've looked at Long Island. What are
your thoughts on Long Island so far?

Speaker 5 (33:54):
It's amazing. It's a must.

Speaker 11 (33:56):
I think if you come to New York, you've got
a tag on Long Island to get, you know, a
true picture. I mean we're exploring more today, which I'm
so excited about. But Long Island is beautiful. It's parts
of it remind me of parts of New Zealand.

Speaker 8 (34:14):
Yes green.

Speaker 3 (34:15):
Yeah, she's literally a place called Riverhead right now, that's
right crazy, Yeah, you can pop home. Last night we
went to a little restaurant it's famous for its like seafood,
and you had the swordfish. How was that?

Speaker 8 (34:28):
That was divine? Like?

Speaker 11 (34:29):
It literally fell apart in my mouth, it was. It
was so good. Yeah, looking, I mean it's.

A ferocious sida, isn't it. I mean we've been going
NonStop for two days. Yeah, what are your finest moments?

Speaker 1 (35:28):
Wow, Manhattan at night to be gorgeous. We're going to
see all those bright lights. And then we're going to
get stuck into some shopping tomorrow, which I cannot wait
for that to get you some shoes. Yeah, before we
run today and get into our activities, we need to
hear about this connection because to know you told us
how you once dressed Princess Diana, tell us how you

(35:49):
also met Keanu Reeves and.

Speaker 8 (35:50):
Snoop Dog two different stories again.

When I was living in London thirty years ago, but
I worked my first job when I got there, worked
for Fortnham and Mason.

So there.

Speaker 11 (36:03):
Eighteen hundreds they beautiful foods from around the world, and
so I was working there and every day you would
see famous people, sports people, royals every day. And so
Keanu Reeves was in town and it was the time
of Matrix and my cousin had actually said to me,

(36:25):
if Keanu comes into the store, as everybody does, can
you please please please get his autograph? And I'm like, okay,
you're not really meant to go up to people. But anyway,
he came in and he was walked past me and
smiled and I just introduced myself, said if you need
any help, and I didn't want to get any trouble,

(36:45):
but my cousin had his pictures all over the wall,
so he walked me, said oh, come with me, and
we kind of walked to the back of the store
and we chatted for probably ten minutes. We laughed, he
signed a card and then he wrote something for me,
and he put his arm on me and I could
see all my colleagues late looking at the side of
the eye.

Speaker 8 (37:07):
But when you're a key we in London, you know
you're a little bit ballsy.

Speaker 1 (37:11):

I started this podcast 5 years ago to invite you into conversations and workshops that are designed to help make you happier, healthier and more healed. I believe that when you (yes you) feel seen, heard and understood you’re able to deal with relationship struggles, work challenges and life’s ups and downs with more ease and grace. I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose. I can’t wait for you to listen to your first or 500th episode!
