Speaker 1 (00:00):
Coast Breakfast brought to you by Bargain Chemist their policy
New Zealand's cheapest chemist.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Tony Jason Sam's feel Good Breakfast Can't Shut podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
Today on the show, we talked to eighties icon Ivor
Davies from Ice House about the new Summer tour and
his excitement at coming to New Zealand.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
When you think about Greek culture, what do you think
you think? Singing and dancing and wonderful weddings in the
movie and my big fact Greek wedding. We've all seen
the movie, but also they're changing things up for the
Greek culture. They might be working longer than ever and
some people are saying it's bar barrack, but Kimi's recking.
I might give that a go before seemly if we
sat down with a world famous magician, Cosan Tina who's
(00:41):
coming to New Zealand and you may have seen them
in Australia's Got Talent, you may have seen them on
all the TV shows as well, and we asked them,
so what do you expect? You know, what can people
expect when they see you live in New Zealand and November?
Speaker 4 (00:49):
Cosentino, I always expect the unexpected. That doesn't give you
much information, doesn't it. Yeah? No, because magic tricks and
things appearing and disappearing. True.
Speaker 5 (00:58):
Yes, And then there's a lot of audience dissipation.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
There's the crazy, death defying escapes, there's very immersive, interactive,
it's a little it's quite funny, usually good.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
This's what I'd like to know is what sits you
apart because you know, I'm sure a lot of people
would want to do what you're doing for their living,
and you are so successful at it. You're selling out
places around the world. So what do you think it
is that you've got that some people don't.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
So looks, look at the face on them, log at it.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
It's hard to step back and look at it. It's
a good question. I think it's a lot of things
that have to work together. First off, I broke through
over ten years ago on a show called Australia's Got Talent,
but I'd been working at it fifteen years prior to
Australia's Got Talent. And then in my show, there's a
combination of the slide of hand, close up magic, the escapes,
the illusions, and I think what separates it really is
(01:49):
the showmanship and the presentation. Because anyone can learn a
magic trick, but not everyone can make it look like magic.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
So there's a great nationwide too, happening a little later
on this year, November and December. The details you've got
to endeavor live forward slash costs in Tino or if
you just google Costantino, New Zealand tour your final the
dates just there too. Because you're really good at all.
This obviously made a bit of living out of it,
bit of a TV show. You have heard the name?
Is it possible? Because we camera's in the studio? Now,
is it possible to do a little trick in front
(02:14):
of us?
Speaker 4 (02:14):
I can?
Speaker 5 (02:15):
I can?
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Is that all Righty?
Speaker 5 (02:17):
Grab my very cute looking but dazzled back pepper.
Speaker 6 (02:20):
Now there's a pack of cars and a sharpie on
the table. Now, yes, when I look at that sharpie,
I see a black lid and and and a red
line around it.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
And aga all that's gonna be on socials at Coast Breakfast.
Speaker 5 (02:30):
Okay, take one any cards you like?
Speaker 4 (02:32):
Okay, the Ace of Diamonds great, So take the pen,
write your name, sign your name on it, on it, Tony,
You're going to take your card and you're going to
just hold it like that, don't do anything else, is scute,
but like that so everyone can see. Okay, and I've
just taken the top card the next card, say, and
I've done the exact same thing.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
Okay, do you want to just bite the card?
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Okay?
Speaker 6 (02:54):
Great, okay both and they've got them in their mouths
is approaching Tony like he's going to do some kind
of card exchange. It looks like he is doing a
proposal at the stage, and they're working towards each other
like they're going to go for a kiss.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
Oh and now he's.
Speaker 6 (03:10):
Effectively pistol whipped Tony's card with Constantino's card over the top.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
There, du did not take my cargoing, no way.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
It's impossible.
Speaker 6 (03:20):
The card in Tony's mouth has switched to Constantino's card.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
I was buicing hard. I promised. There's no way you
took that out of my mouth. How on earth is.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
A flight of Tongue's remarkable?
Speaker 6 (03:32):
Not only remarkable, kind of romantic at the same time.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Is amazing. Wow again, watch even watch it in slow
motion at post breakfast on Instagram and place. But we've
slowed it right down and Honestly, we've watched it over
and over again. We can't figure it out right now
in Wimbledon. So Lulu's Sun who has ranked like one
hundred and thirty something in the world. She's from New
Zealand in Wimbledon. Right now she's taking on a tennis
player called Julia from Ukraine and at the moment, Julia
(03:57):
is winning five to four on the first seat.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
The fact that she won one, got into the main
draw of wimedon two, won her first match is quite phenomenal.
Speaker 7 (04:04):
Give it.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Lulua knocked out the world number eight.
Speaker 5 (04:07):
Yeah, I know, phenomenal.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
And just if you want a little bit of background
to Lulu, she was born in tianaw to a Croatian
father and a Chinese mother, and she moved to Switzerland
when she was five, so she hasn't lived in New
Zealand since then.
Speaker 5 (04:19):
But you know, formative year has got her this far.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
And she's playing under our flag. Yeah yeah, So we'll
keep you posted through that the moment. So it's five
forty Yulia from Ukraine and this is match too. It's
happening right now on court sixteen. How many courts do
they have at Wimbledon? Sixteen.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
I don't know, but it's a dream to go there.
I've been to the Australian Open and it was just phenomenal. Oh,
I watched veteran Djokovic play and highlights of my life.
But you've been researching the Wimbledon balls.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
The Wimbledon balls. I had no idea. You may have
seen this thing in the round yesterday. You know how
when Wimbledon started a couple of days ago. So David
Attenburgh walked in and everyone stood up and gave him
a standing ovation. And Wimbledon's quite a proper place. You
were a nice student time. You talk very quietly now
the place when nuts he walked in and got a
standing ovation, he was on the big screen and he
sat down. They look really humble. He's ninety eight years
old to David Attinborough.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
I love that he was there, and it's just it's
so full of tradition Wimbledon, isn't it. Yeah, they have
the strawberries and cream. Everyone has to wear white. They
still use terms like gentleman's draw.
Speaker 5 (05:13):
I love that they hark back to a bygone air.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
Ye same. So he's in the Royal box with soon
to be Sir David Beckham. So he's sitting next to him,
he's on the big screen. He's thinking everybody, the two Daves,
the two Daves hanging out BFFs. And what you may
not know though, is that the balls are yellow because
of David Attenborough.
Speaker 5 (05:28):
How does that work?
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Okay? So years ago he was working at the BBC
and it was black and white TV. But the balls
used to be black or white. Literally when you played tennis,
that was the color of the ball. The white balls
started to stain on the grass though, and when they
went to color TV, David Attenborough was like, oh, it's
going to be hard for people to see. Why don't
we change the color of the ball. So they did,
and they made it bright yellow because he said, you said,
go bright yellow. It's easy to see on TV.
Speaker 5 (05:49):
Don't you love it?
Speaker 1 (05:50):
How you just assume he is the god of all
things animals and the natural world.
Speaker 5 (05:54):
Turns out has an impact on sport too.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
He's getting things to day, said David Astborough. So that's
why the ball yellow. Because of that. Khorn and I
lovely got a standing ovation.
Speaker 5 (06:03):
I love that he was around before the balls were yellow.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
So I can't remember a time that they were name
by now you'll know that I'm a massive theater fan,
not just because my kids do it, but because I'm
just obsessed with any form of show. And one of
the shows that I have never seen, and it's a
bit shocking that I haven't as a theater fan is Wicked.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
I haven't seen Wicked.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
So when I heard that the movie Wicked was coming out,
I got super excited. You know, the one that's got
Ariana Grande as Guilda and Alphaba.
Speaker 5 (06:33):
Here's the trailer.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
Oh, people born Wicked?
Speaker 7 (06:39):
Or do they have wickedness thrust upon me?
Speaker 6 (06:50):
You're a green?
Speaker 3 (06:53):
I am one of the witches ends up being totally green.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
And you know that amazing song that you heard to
find Gravity. It's one of the big numbers and it's
a huge hit on broadwayn I'm sure it will be
at the cinemas as well, or will it be? So
you know, this is a great time for cinema. It's
had such a resurgence since COVID. So remember it was
last year we had bar Barbenheimer. So remember when Barbie,
(07:17):
which was a smash hit, was put out at the
same time as Oppenheimer.
Speaker 5 (07:20):
Yes, and it was this big clashes.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
To which one like everyone was going to them twice,
like to them both. And sometimes they do them back
to back eight like three hours three.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Hours, so cinemas were actually scheduling them back to back
so you could do that.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
And I think in the War of Barbenheimer, I think
we can all agree that Barbie won out.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Barbie won the people's hearts. Oppenheimer won the awards, though.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Which is always the one people don't like they win
the awards normally happened. So Wicked has a competitor as well.
And let's see if I'll tell you what they've combined
the words to say, and see if you can work
out the movie wickediator wikiiator wikidiator. So that's the new
Barbenheimer wikitiator because Glad two is coming out at the
(08:02):
same time. Now, Wicked got wind that Gladiator two was
coming out, and they've actually brought their release day forward
five days so that they can compete because they didn't
want Gladiator to get the hop on them.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
They really that's aggressive.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Now Denzel Washington is in Gladiator too, or you know,
I love to bring us a lot of gravitas.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
What do you think you're vibing right.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
Now to be I have seen Wicked the show. I
was lucky enough to see it in Melbourne. It is
a phenomenal show. I can imagine the movie must be amazing.
I've seen the trailer. It looks amazing already. But anything
with the Zel in it is going to be great.
And I love the first Gladiator with Russell Crowe. He's
not in this one though, is he.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
I'm going to be sexist here, and I reckon this
is a boys and girls camp.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
I reckon more girls are going to want to see Wicked.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
And more boys and saying that I loved Gladiator one
with Russell Crowe, but I just it's not going to
be the same without him.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
Yeah, I agree. Now, I just look at the release
dates here. This is interesting because at the same time
these two movies come out, Gladiated Too and Wicked, Mowana
the movie comes out too. What a time to be alive?
Speaker 1 (08:57):
And that's that's the live action yeahie that one with
the rock and we've got our Kiwi in it.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
That's Frank Hendas's right, and Jayla guy and a famous
Jaya guy his daughter isn't it as well?
Speaker 5 (09:07):
And when Owen isn't she playing Talla?
Speaker 3 (09:09):
That's right, Yes, I've got to believe.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
You and ahead of us.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
This is no Jimber. By the way, November is when
it all happens.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
We'll keep you posted between now and then, we promise.
Can you believe it's almost exactly thirty years to the
day that song's released. That came out on the twenty
sixth of July back in nineteen ninety four.
Speaker 5 (09:25):
The phenomenon Boys to Men were.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
That song's been fourteen weeks at number one.
Speaker 5 (09:30):
That's massive surprise. I know.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Sam Wallace is a big fan of Boys to Me
as well, and he is on the trip of a lifetime.
Speaker 5 (09:36):
If you haven't heard, he's in Italy. Technically he's in
Tuscany right now, but it took him a little while
to get there.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
He's been sending us the daily updates and yesterday things
went a little wrong, and today it turns out things
got a little bit wrong.
Speaker 6 (09:53):
Listen, well, hello everyone, we have arrived in Tuscany and
let me tell you, yesterday was quite a day, so
we missed two trains. So by the time we paid
for two flights, I think we're up to three thousand
euros or something ridiculous like that. On the second time
we missed the train, they were feeling so sorry for us.
They managed to give us seats on the next train
(10:16):
for us to charge. They transferred the tickets, so that
was good. It turns out it's quite hard to move
eleven people, a seven year, eight year old and two
twins with a joint premer.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
We were and told me not to take the double pram,
but I did. And it's quite hard because it didn't
fit in any of the elevators.
Speaker 6 (10:32):
To cut a long story short, we eventually got on
a train. It took two hours. We went from Venice
to Tuscany and here we are. We've arrived at our
villa and it is monumental. It's two or three hundred
years old. It's all in stone, and there's a pool
and just today we've had a private chef come around
and cook us the most incredible lunch.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
I've never seen my kids eat so much.
Speaker 6 (10:50):
Of course, they had beauty bolonnais, but the most delicious,
spitty billonais you've ever seen.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
And the weird thing is it's a sixteen room villa.
Speaker 5 (10:56):
It is huge, so there was room for you guys.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
I don't know how you're not here, because I'd have
really enjoyed all of your company.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
But I'll let me leave you now because they're going
to go jump in the pool. Sounds amazing.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
I'm so just to give you the visual of that.
He's wearing pink speedos.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
Of course he is.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
You're not gonna believe this with Sam has his shirt off.
Speaker 5 (11:18):
It's shocking.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
I just hope he's okay with the lack of calorie
deficits while he's over there. I reckon when we get back,
we're going to hear about how the court stops just pack.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
It on the Italian injection that's happening right now.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Coasts Feel Good Breakfast catch Up podcast with Tony Street,
Jas Reeves and Sam Wallas.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Let's talk about family holidays during school time. Remember the
school yard. So the news came out yesterday families opting
out of term time holidays, a mid truancy crackdown, So
families of school these kids are choosing not to take
their kids out of school to travel, according to Flights
into Data.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
My question here is right is the truancy issue we have?
Speaker 1 (12:02):
And I know that it is an issue, and it
has been particularly bad since COVID. Is it really the
week people are taking their kids on holiday or is
it the fact that kids are just not going to
school like most of the time? Do you know what?
Speaker 6 (12:15):
Do you know what?
Speaker 3 (12:16):
I know this is off the topic a little bit,
but in my humble opinion, I think during the lockdowns,
we shut schools down way too easily, and nowadays, if
there's a power cut, some schools will shut down. It
seems to me that schools not as important and it's
been freed down at look it's not important. It should
be important, and that I think this has given everyone,
or not everyone, but some family is a sense of
oh well yeah, do you know what when it comes
to school, and it breaks my heart.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
I put My opinion is probably controversial on this, but
I think if you're a student that is there, you
know ninety percent of the time, and you've got a
special occasion where you're going away for a family birthday
or like Sam's case, a trip of a lifetime with
the grandparents, I don't see the issue in taking one
or two weeks off if you're there most of the
rest of the time. I think the focus should be
(12:57):
on the kids that are having a day off every
week because they've got a little sniffle.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Yeah, I agree, that's what I'm talking about, going.
Speaker 5 (13:04):
There every Friday, you know, that's that's the real issue.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
Surely, I agree. So the most popular a lot of
people are actually taking the because during the school holidays now
like when you're supposed to. But as you know, if
you've ever tried to travel school holidays, the prices go
through the roof because everyone wants to travel during the holidays.
It gets really expensive.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
But it's not only that, it's it's very hard in
the working environment.
Speaker 5 (13:23):
We have to marry up everyone's leave.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
If you've got two working parents trying to get the
same leave as when the kids are off, it doesn't
always work that way.
Speaker 5 (13:32):
And I just think maybe they should be looking at.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
The child's overall record of attendance before they decide they
need to intervene, and surely if they've got attendants over
eighty five ninety percent, then these no issues.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
That's good because a lot of schools are cracking down
on this. The most popular holiday destinations, by the way Fiji,
Raratonga and the Gold Coast. However, these are also on
the list now. Bali family trips to Bali, London, LA
and Hawaii in those families.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Yeah, and what we want to know is did you
take your kids or have you or are you taking
your kids on a holiday and are you quite comfortable
with it or are you definitely someone that doesn't think
that should be allowed.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
Friends of ours did this a few years ago and
there's a bit of pushback from the school and their
argument was we actually going to go see some culture
overseas and go to museums and things like that, and
the kids are going to learn a lot whilether of seas. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Again, is that kid going to school eighty percent of
the time anyway?
Speaker 5 (14:22):
Because if they are, I don't see the issue.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
So were you bad bum? So have you done it?
Would you do it? Are you're okay with doing it?
Or you think absolutely not? What's your take on this?
You would have seen this in the news yesterday, maybe
that a lot of people are not taking the kids
out of school time anymore. They're actually saving up the
holidays to take the kids overseas during the holidays. It
didn't used to be that way though. Yeah, it's a
crackdown and.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
I think I don't know, I think truancy is definitely issue.
You have to address it. But I just don't know
if going for a holiday for one week to the problem.
Surely the constant truancy is what do you think, Noel,
did you used to take your kids out for school
holidays or in term time?
Speaker 8 (14:57):
Well, it was a normal sort of thing to do.
You're taking kids expect that, and the skills didn't mind
because it was like a class. Is like a social study.
Just think, I see how other people live. But now
with everything on the internet and TV programs, they can
see you how the rest of the world lives just
on the.
Speaker 5 (15:14):
Is it different though, to being there in person? Do
you think?
Speaker 8 (15:18):
Sorry?
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Is that?
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Do you think it's different to actually being there physically
than just seeing it online?
Speaker 8 (15:24):
Well, it's differently because use all traveled as well, and
you go to some places and you know, they think
we've talked very fast and you've got to slow down
and talk slowly to them. And do you think they
got an accent and they think we have an accent?
You don't see that on the TV.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
Do you? And you right know there are a lot
of travel TV programs. But I think you're right Tony
as well. I see both sides of this it's different when'
actually being there immersed in that culture and learning things.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
And I think the resilience as well of having to travel.
Inevitably things go wrong. I mean we're seeing that with Sam.
You're missing flights and it causes you a bit of
stress and you have to deal with it and then
you learn for the next time and counter that just
really quickly.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Have you done it kids out of school during school time?
Speaker 9 (16:03):
Yeah, most certainly. I feel that at a school times,
because you don't have all the other people out there,
the costs a much cheaper and also certainly causy time
with your children away. It's just as important as teaching.
It's very, very important to have that quality time.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
You're so right.
Speaker 5 (16:26):
I so agree with that.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
And the fast pace of life that we're living in now,
it doesn't exactly encourage being together as a family, does it.
So when you can grab those moments, I say the
same take them.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
As you all in the text on two six nine nine,
most people agreeing it's actually okay as long as you're
doing something they can learn and spend with his family time,
which you know is quite rare these days.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
I want you to tell me if you have ever
had an incident like this where you have suddenly just
decided that you can simply cannot live in your house
anymore unless you sought some things out. But sometimes it
starts for me and I and I go, there's a
mark on fridge, and then I look at the floor
and go, this will not do. And I get the
(17:04):
mop out and I scrub that floor within an inch
of its life. And then I look over and I
haven't dusted the mantlepiece. And then there's these old magazines
everywhere and else I have to get them. And even
if I'm tired, and it's like the stupidest time to
be doing it. It might be five o'clock at a Friday,
and my husband looks at me like, you have literally
lost your mind. I don't know what he's thinking. He's
thinking she's got perimetopause. And I know that he's thinking that,
(17:28):
and that makes me want to kill him.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Does he does he do one of two things? Does
he get out of the way, or does he try
and help out?
Speaker 1 (17:34):
I think in the beginning, remember we've been together for
over twenty years. In the beginning, he might try and
to intervene and say, hey, we don't need to do
it now, he just goes to another room because he
knows I'm just not going to stop until I sort
that out.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
So he's seeking refuge.
Speaker 5 (17:49):
But I'm here to tell.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
You today that there is a reason for it. And
actually we're not all psychos if we do that. Okay, good,
so woman, It turns out this is scientific knowledge. Now,
women are more sensitive to clutter than men. Cluster increases
the stress womone cortisol faster in women compared to men.
So women, if you're sitting there, going why does he
(18:12):
not care about this mess? Why is he not perturbed
by that stack of magazines that is blurted all over
the lounge. That is why they just don't care as much.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
And I just don't get it.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
And I think if we I think, if we know that,
it might not make us get as angry. And I think,
as men, if you know that our brains are predisposed
to hating clutter, maybe just maybe you might.
Speaker 5 (18:35):

s t e n. It's also called wolfrim. Wolfram is
a chemical element, and the number symbol is dou w
double as touch number seventy four Tony Street.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
That means tomorrow on Friday, right on the eve of
the weekend. On the final they have the feel good
five hundred countdown. You could win nine hundred dollars.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
What if your Friday was actually your Saturday because your
only day off was Saturday, which was actually your Sunday,
right right, Okay, so you're working six days a week,
it's a lot. If someone said to you right now,
you're working six days a week with one day off?
Speaker 5 (23:21):
Would you be happy about it?
Speaker 3 (23:23):
I love my job, don't get me wrong, but I
do also like a bit of time off.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
Yeah, So the entire world, and we've been very proactive
and talking about this here on Coast Breakfast because we've
interviewed Andrew Barnes. We did a podcast with him about
working a four day week, and that's what a lot
of countries are turning to because they've found out that
if you work four days a week rather than five,
you're actually more productive than.
Speaker 5 (23:45):
If you worked five.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
But Greece has decided to flip this model on its
head and they have introduced the six day working week
and it's coming in very very soon, and of people
into it, well, the unions have come out and said
it's bar barrack, so there is fierce opposition. So they've
had five hundred thousand Greek youths leave the country. So
(24:08):
they're in a big state of we don't have enough workers.
So the government center right government has taken this drastic move. Now,
on the face of it, I was like, oh, yeah,
six days a week, what are they thinking? Then I
started reading the detail and Actually it might not be
as bad as you think if you're someone that wants
to earn a little bit more cash and you're prepared
(24:29):
to just dig in for a little while.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
So this is if you're not on a salary, if
you want an hourly wage, makes sense, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
So the six day scheme will only apply to private
businesses who are providing round the clock services, so not
of you, like working for the government or anything that.
Speaker 5 (24:44):
Under the extended working week.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Staff and select industries and manufacturing facilities will have the
option it's optional, of working an additional two hours a day, right,
or an extra eight hour shift rewarded with a top
up feet of full percent added to the daily wage.
Whow okay, saying insteady an eight hour day, you can
(25:06):
work a ten hour day five days a week, or
you can add an entire extra day, but you're going
to get paid a lot more and it's a percentage
increase too.
Speaker 5 (25:16):
So there is a real incentive to do it, so.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
It's almost half your salary of wages. Again.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
On top are also saying that they think this will
redress the issue of employees not being paid for overtime,
while they're also tackling the pervasive problem of undeclared work.
Speaker 5 (25:30):
So they're saying some of you are already doing this
and not getting paid.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
Well, I was thinking about this way. You know, there
were some trade in before the ID crackdown. Of course,
no trades ever do it now. No, Well, but in
the weekends some tradees used to do certainly not nowadays. No
do the old perk job.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
So now if you do the extra hours, you're going
to get a forty percent extra pay rise. Now it's illegal,
so it's quite It's not as bad as what it
first seemed.
Speaker 5 (25:49):
I mean, I still don't know if I'm into it.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
There was a lot of people that sitting here as
we speak, and I bet you're one of them that
is already working a ten hour day, but you're only
getting paid for eight. So under this new scheme, those
extra two hours you'll be getting pad an extra forty
percent suddenly sounds a little appealing you in it.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
What do you reckon? Oh eight hundred double O four
coast call us afflix. It's a text to two six
nine nine six day a week, or you a couple
of hours a day and you paid forty percent more
than you're already earning what do you reckon? Send that
text to two six nine nine. Have you missed our
update from Sam from Italy around about this time yesterday
we heard there's some issues. They missed a couple of
trains and a couple of boat rides were way more
expensive than the book. No more flights and it turned
(26:26):
into a bit of a mess. Well, they've arrived at
a villa in Tuscany. This is my dream, this is
my bucket list. I want to do this.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
You need to go to his instagram actually and have
a look because they really are nailing it with the
private chef and everything.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
So yeah, and again you can get that update if
you missed it on the Coast Breakfast catch up podcast
text podcast the two six nine nine.
Speaker 5 (26:43):
After Italy, he then goes to Greece.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
This is where your husband's from.
Speaker 5 (26:49):
Ay it is.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
Yeah, I'd say I'm doing to go to Greece one
day and go and see all of our ancestors, well
my husband's side of the family, but I don't know
I would want to live there because they've just introduced
what's coming in very soon, a six day working week,
so it is optional if you're in a private company.
You can either add two hours a day to your
shifts so you've worked ten hour.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
Days, or you can do it a whole another day day.
Is this something that you'd be keen on.
Speaker 8 (27:15):
Yeah, I'd love to be paid for extra work doing,
but being a trade, we quite often do six days
a week.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
You do not uncommon to do seven days use self employed, Dave. Yeah, yeah,
that's it. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 8 (27:31):
And if you've given a quote then there's no extra
on top, so it's up to you to get stuck
into it and get it done.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
Really, if you were in Greece, you'd be getting an
extra forty percent for the extra hours and day work.
Speaker 5 (27:44):
So just mull that over, Dave. It could be a
good strategy.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
For you later in life. What about you, Shari, do
you like the idea of working an extra.
Speaker 5 (27:52):
Day week.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Not an extra day?
Speaker 2 (27:55):
I'd rather do the extra hours.
Speaker 9 (27:57):
I've worked a couple of jobs where I've worked the
extra hours and you don't get paid for it.
Speaker 8 (28:02):
Look, when I lived in Auckland, I hate traffic, so
my hours.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
Were eight till eight till five, so I'd.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
Be in by seven, missing the traffic, and I wouldn't
be leaving till after six, So I was working the
hours but not getting paid for it. Imagine that you'd
get you'd get an extra forty percent for those two
hours you worked, so it's a win win. I'd be
very happy.
Speaker 8 (28:23):
But I've worked another job to where I worked.
Speaker 7 (28:25):
I actually worked four days.
Speaker 6 (28:27):
A week, ten hour days, so, but it was two
days on, one day off, two days on, two days off.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
Oh you've got what was that job?
Speaker 1 (28:37):
That was actually nurse eating actually up in longer per
hour hard work. You'd get up on a Monday morning
and you'd be like, oh, crap, one more day, togo,
and then I've got a day off.
Speaker 3 (28:48):
Yeah, I don't like that's the way.
Speaker 9 (28:50):
Next on the Thursday, crap, one more day, but I've
got two days off.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
You know.
Speaker 5 (28:54):
It's so such a weird thing to think.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
And you got out of Bolton. Where are you now?
Speaker 1 (29:00):
I'm actually in Hawks Bay.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
Oh you've done the reverse of me. Yeah, beautiful, sure
thing for that. On the text on two six ninet nine,
most people are saying, give me the extra two hours
a day.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
I think so particularly a moment it hits eight hours,
you get that extra forty percent, and you're actually getting
paid for time you're working, so in a way it
is actually employee friendly.
Speaker 5 (29:22):
It seems like it's not.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
Just enjoy this is all for the Greek.
Speaker 5 (29:25):
Oh Greece.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
What a song.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
And then after work you're going into the beautiful water
and you're walking around the beautiful white.
Speaker 4 (29:33):
Building and you're smashing some plates and you're smashing some plates.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
I've seen the movies.
Speaker 5 (29:36):
You having some mousaka.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
But it's also World Country Music Day today, and you
think about country songs. You got to do when the whole.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
No, when the.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Fall that don't imposing me and Kenny Rogers.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
You've got Shenaia Twain. Our own producer Rosie a couple
of months ago released her first country album.
Speaker 5 (29:56):
She did Thank God She's a country girl.
Speaker 3 (29:58):
She is overboard that producer. If you google rosy teas
t E that's a t I google that you'll find
here a Rosie Happy Country Music Day today, Rosie over again.
(30:21):
Maybe some people go overboard with coffee badging. What is
coffee badging?
Speaker 1 (30:24):
By the way, well, can I just say no one
in this room does coffee badging, right okay? And it's
a new thing that is happening in offices and you
will absolutely know someone that is doing this. So it's
got nothing to do with actually drinking coffee, Okay, it's
just the timing of what coffee represents.
Speaker 5 (30:43):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
So are you someone that swipes into your office building
to meet you in person mandate, but then you leave
as soon as possible. And if that's your strategy, you
are the new term your coffee badging. So essentially you're
turning up to to be like I'm here. You go
around and you're like here everyone, so everyone can see
your face, but then you go quickly back to working
(31:07):
from home, so you're literally checking in. And do you
know what, Some employers are actually okay with this, some
of the managers, because the moment you step foot in
the office, they can say you went to the office
that day, regardless of how long you were actually in
the office.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
Stare right, yep.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
So this is happening, showing face at the office then leaving.
And apparently fifty eight percent of workers in the US
are coffee badging.
Speaker 5 (31:33):
You all know someone that does that.
Speaker 3 (31:35):
I see people here walk in say hi, and it
does be straight out the door to get a coffee. Yeah,
that must be the same.
Speaker 1 (31:40):
If they carried on home, or you know, maybe they
come in for a meeting, which is I don't know,
twenty minutes long time that it might take to have
a coffee break, and then they go home and work
from home for the rest of the day. It's the
new strategy of coffee badging. So you can say, yeah,
I went to the.
Speaker 5 (31:56):
Office on Tuesday. Were you in the office on Tuesday? Yeah,
I absolutely not a lie. That is not a lie.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
Genius, Well, payow.
Speaker 5 (32:05):
When you think about it.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
If you go into the office for a meeting and
then the rest of your day, you can literally do
it home. She don't need to interact with anyone. Why
would you stay. I mean, if we didn't have to
be chained to the studio, maybe we'd be coffee.

Coast Breakfast brought to you by Bargain Chemist their policy
New Zealand's cheapest chemist.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Tony Jason Sam's feel Good Breakfast Can't Shut podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
Today on the show, we talked to eighties icon Ivor
Davies from Ice House about the new Summer tour and
his excitement at coming to New Zealand.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
When you think about Greek culture, what do you think
you think? Singing and dancing and wonderful weddings in the
movie and my big fact Greek wedding. We've all seen
the movie, but also they're changing things up for the
Greek culture. They might be working longer than ever and
some people are saying it's bar barrack, but Kimi's recking.
I might give that a go before seemly if we
sat down with a world famous magician, Cosan Tina who's
(00:41):
coming to New Zealand and you may have seen them
in Australia's Got Talent, you may have seen them on
all the TV shows as well, and we asked them,
so what do you expect? You know, what can people
expect when they see you live in New Zealand and November?
Speaker 4 (00:49):
Cosentino, I always expect the unexpected. That doesn't give you
much information, doesn't it. Yeah? No, because magic tricks and
things appearing and disappearing. True.
Speaker 5 (00:58):
Yes, And then there's a lot of audience dissipation.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
There's the crazy, death defying escapes, there's very immersive, interactive,
it's a little it's quite funny, usually good.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
This's what I'd like to know is what sits you
apart because you know, I'm sure a lot of people
would want to do what you're doing for their living,
and you are so successful at it. You're selling out
places around the world. So what do you think it
is that you've got that some people don't.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
So looks, look at the face on them, log at it.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
It's hard to step back and look at it. It's
a good question. I think it's a lot of things
that have to work together. First off, I broke through
over ten years ago on a show called Australia's Got Talent,
but I'd been working at it fifteen years prior to
Australia's Got Talent. And then in my show, there's a
combination of the slide of hand, close up magic, the escapes,
the illusions, and I think what separates it really is
(01:49):
the showmanship and the presentation. Because anyone can learn a
magic trick, but not everyone can make it look like magic.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
So there's a great nationwide too, happening a little later
on this year, November and December. The details you've got
to endeavor live forward slash costs in Tino or if
you just google Costantino, New Zealand tour your final the
dates just there too. Because you're really good at all.
This obviously made a bit of living out of it,
bit of a TV show. You have heard the name?
Is it possible? Because we camera's in the studio? Now,
is it possible to do a little trick in front
(02:14):
of us?
Speaker 4 (02:14):
I can?
Speaker 5 (02:15):
I can?
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Is that all Righty?
Speaker 5 (02:17):
Grab my very cute looking but dazzled back pepper.
Speaker 6 (02:20):
Now there's a pack of cars and a sharpie on
the table. Now, yes, when I look at that sharpie,
I see a black lid and and and a red
line around it.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
And aga all that's gonna be on socials at Coast Breakfast.
Speaker 5 (02:30):
Okay, take one any cards you like?
Speaker 4 (02:32):
Okay, the Ace of Diamonds great, So take the pen,
write your name, sign your name on it, on it, Tony,
You're going to take your card and you're going to
just hold it like that, don't do anything else, is scute,
but like that so everyone can see. Okay, and I've
just taken the top card the next card, say, and
I've done the exact same thing.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
Okay, do you want to just bite the card?
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Okay?
Speaker 6 (02:54):
Great, okay both and they've got them in their mouths
is approaching Tony like he's going to do some kind
of card exchange. It looks like he is doing a
proposal at the stage, and they're working towards each other
like they're going to go for a kiss.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
Oh and now he's.
Speaker 6 (03:10):
Effectively pistol whipped Tony's card with Constantino's card over the top.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
There, du did not take my cargoing, no way.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
It's impossible.
Speaker 6 (03:20):
The card in Tony's mouth has switched to Constantino's card.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
I was buicing hard. I promised. There's no way you
took that out of my mouth. How on earth is.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
A flight of Tongue's remarkable?
Speaker 6 (03:32):
Not only remarkable, kind of romantic at the same time.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Is amazing. Wow again, watch even watch it in slow
motion at post breakfast on Instagram and place. But we've
slowed it right down and Honestly, we've watched it over
and over again. We can't figure it out right now
in Wimbledon. So Lulu's Sun who has ranked like one
hundred and thirty something in the world. She's from New
Zealand in Wimbledon. Right now she's taking on a tennis
player called Julia from Ukraine and at the moment, Julia
(03:57):
is winning five to four on the first seat.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
The fact that she won one, got into the main
draw of wimedon two, won her first match is quite phenomenal.
Speaker 7 (04:04):
Give it.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Lulua knocked out the world number eight.
Speaker 5 (04:07):
Yeah, I know, phenomenal.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
And just if you want a little bit of background
to Lulu, she was born in tianaw to a Croatian
father and a Chinese mother, and she moved to Switzerland
when she was five, so she hasn't lived in New
Zealand since then.
Speaker 5 (04:19):
But you know, formative year has got her this far.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
And she's playing under our flag. Yeah yeah, So we'll
keep you posted through that the moment. So it's five
forty Yulia from Ukraine and this is match too. It's
happening right now on court sixteen. How many courts do
they have at Wimbledon? Sixteen.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
I don't know, but it's a dream to go there.
I've been to the Australian Open and it was just phenomenal. Oh,
I watched veteran Djokovic play and highlights of my life.
But you've been researching the Wimbledon balls.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
The Wimbledon balls. I had no idea. You may have
seen this thing in the round yesterday. You know how
when Wimbledon started a couple of days ago. So David
Attenburgh walked in and everyone stood up and gave him
a standing ovation. And Wimbledon's quite a proper place. You
were a nice student time. You talk very quietly now
the place when nuts he walked in and got a
standing ovation, he was on the big screen and he
sat down. They look really humble. He's ninety eight years
old to David Attinborough.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
I love that he was there, and it's just it's
so full of tradition Wimbledon, isn't it. Yeah, they have
the strawberries and cream. Everyone has to wear white. They
still use terms like gentleman's draw.
Speaker 5 (05:13):
I love that they hark back to a bygone air.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
Ye same. So he's in the Royal box with soon
to be Sir David Beckham. So he's sitting next to him,
he's on the big screen. He's thinking everybody, the two Daves,
the two Daves hanging out BFFs. And what you may
not know though, is that the balls are yellow because
of David Attenborough.
Speaker 5 (05:28):
How does that work?
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Okay? So years ago he was working at the BBC
and it was black and white TV. But the balls
used to be black or white. Literally when you played tennis,
that was the color of the ball. The white balls
started to stain on the grass though, and when they
went to color TV, David Attenborough was like, oh, it's
going to be hard for people to see. Why don't
we change the color of the ball. So they did,
and they made it bright yellow because he said, you said,
go bright yellow. It's easy to see on TV.
Speaker 5 (05:49):
Don't you love it?
Speaker 1 (05:50):
How you just assume he is the god of all
things animals and the natural world.
Speaker 5 (05:54):
Turns out has an impact on sport too.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
He's getting things to day, said David Astborough. So that's
why the ball yellow. Because of that. Khorn and I
lovely got a standing ovation.
Speaker 5 (06:03):
I love that he was around before the balls were yellow.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
So I can't remember a time that they were name
by now you'll know that I'm a massive theater fan,
not just because my kids do it, but because I'm
just obsessed with any form of show. And one of
the shows that I have never seen, and it's a
bit shocking that I haven't as a theater fan is Wicked.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
I haven't seen Wicked.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
So when I heard that the movie Wicked was coming out,
I got super excited. You know, the one that's got
Ariana Grande as Guilda and Alphaba.
Speaker 5 (06:33):
Here's the trailer.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
Oh, people born Wicked?
Speaker 7 (06:39):
Or do they have wickedness thrust upon me?
Speaker 6 (06:50):
You're a green?
Speaker 3 (06:53):
I am one of the witches ends up being totally green.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
And you know that amazing song that you heard to
find Gravity. It's one of the big numbers and it's
a huge hit on broadwayn I'm sure it will be
at the cinemas as well, or will it be? So
you know, this is a great time for cinema. It's
had such a resurgence since COVID. So remember it was
last year we had bar Barbenheimer. So remember when Barbie,
(07:17):
which was a smash hit, was put out at the
same time as Oppenheimer.
Speaker 5 (07:20):
Yes, and it was this big clashes.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
To which one like everyone was going to them twice,
like to them both. And sometimes they do them back
to back eight like three hours three.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Hours, so cinemas were actually scheduling them back to back
so you could do that.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
And I think in the War of Barbenheimer, I think
we can all agree that Barbie won out.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Barbie won the people's hearts. Oppenheimer won the awards, though.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Which is always the one people don't like they win
the awards normally happened. So Wicked has a competitor as well.
And let's see if I'll tell you what they've combined
the words to say, and see if you can work
out the movie wickediator wikiiator wikidiator. So that's the new
Barbenheimer wikitiator because Glad two is coming out at the
(08:02):
same time. Now, Wicked got wind that Gladiator two was
coming out, and they've actually brought their release day forward
five days so that they can compete because they didn't
want Gladiator to get the hop on them.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
They really that's aggressive.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Now Denzel Washington is in Gladiator too, or you know,
I love to bring us a lot of gravitas.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
What do you think you're vibing right.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
Now to be I have seen Wicked the show. I
was lucky enough to see it in Melbourne. It is
a phenomenal show. I can imagine the movie must be amazing.
I've seen the trailer. It looks amazing already. But anything
with the Zel in it is going to be great.
And I love the first Gladiator with Russell Crowe. He's
not in this one though, is he.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
I'm going to be sexist here, and I reckon this
is a boys and girls camp.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
I reckon more girls are going to want to see Wicked.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
And more boys and saying that I loved Gladiator one
with Russell Crowe, but I just it's not going to
be the same without him.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
Yeah, I agree. Now, I just look at the release
dates here. This is interesting because at the same time
these two movies come out, Gladiated Too and Wicked, Mowana
the movie comes out too. What a time to be alive?
Speaker 1 (08:57):
And that's that's the live action yeahie that one with
the rock and we've got our Kiwi in it.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
That's Frank Hendas's right, and Jayla guy and a famous
Jaya guy his daughter isn't it as well?
Speaker 5 (09:07):
And when Owen isn't she playing Talla?
Speaker 3 (09:09):
That's right, Yes, I've got to believe.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
You and ahead of us.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
This is no Jimber. By the way, November is when
it all happens.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
We'll keep you posted between now and then, we promise.
Can you believe it's almost exactly thirty years to the
day that song's released. That came out on the twenty
sixth of July back in nineteen ninety four.
Speaker 5 (09:25):
The phenomenon Boys to Men were.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
That song's been fourteen weeks at number one.
Speaker 5 (09:30):
That's massive surprise. I know.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Sam Wallace is a big fan of Boys to Me
as well, and he is on the trip of a lifetime.
Speaker 5 (09:36):
If you haven't heard, he's in Italy. Technically he's in
Tuscany right now, but it took him a little while
to get there.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
He's been sending us the daily updates and yesterday things
went a little wrong, and today it turns out things
got a little bit wrong.
Speaker 6 (09:53):
Listen, well, hello everyone, we have arrived in Tuscany and
let me tell you, yesterday was quite a day, so
we missed two trains. So by the time we paid
for two flights, I think we're up to three thousand
euros or something ridiculous like that. On the second time
we missed the train, they were feeling so sorry for us.
They managed to give us seats on the next train
(10:16):
for us to charge. They transferred the tickets, so that
was good. It turns out it's quite hard to move
eleven people, a seven year, eight year old and two
twins with a joint premer.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
We were and told me not to take the double pram,
but I did. And it's quite hard because it didn't
fit in any of the elevators.
Speaker 6 (10:32):
To cut a long story short, we eventually got on
a train. It took two hours. We went from Venice
to Tuscany and here we are. We've arrived at our
villa and it is monumental. It's two or three hundred
years old. It's all in stone, and there's a pool
and just today we've had a private chef come around
and cook us the most incredible lunch.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
I've never seen my kids eat so much.
Speaker 6 (10:50):
Of course, they had beauty bolonnais, but the most delicious,
spitty billonais you've ever seen.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
And the weird thing is it's a sixteen room villa.
Speaker 5 (10:56):
It is huge, so there was room for you guys.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
I don't know how you're not here, because I'd have
really enjoyed all of your company.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
But I'll let me leave you now because they're going
to go jump in the pool. Sounds amazing.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
I'm so just to give you the visual of that.
He's wearing pink speedos.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
Of course he is.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
You're not gonna believe this with Sam has his shirt off.
Speaker 5 (11:18):
It's shocking.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
I just hope he's okay with the lack of calorie
deficits while he's over there. I reckon when we get back,
we're going to hear about how the court stops just pack.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
It on the Italian injection that's happening right now.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Coasts Feel Good Breakfast catch Up podcast with Tony Street,
Jas Reeves and Sam Wallas.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Let's talk about family holidays during school time. Remember the
school yard. So the news came out yesterday families opting
out of term time holidays, a mid truancy crackdown, So
families of school these kids are choosing not to take
their kids out of school to travel, according to Flights
into Data.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
My question here is right is the truancy issue we have?
Speaker 1 (12:02):
And I know that it is an issue, and it
has been particularly bad since COVID. Is it really the
week people are taking their kids on holiday or is
it the fact that kids are just not going to
school like most of the time? Do you know what?
Speaker 6 (12:15):
Do you know what?
Speaker 3 (12:16):
I know this is off the topic a little bit,
but in my humble opinion, I think during the lockdowns,
we shut schools down way too easily, and nowadays, if
there's a power cut, some schools will shut down. It
seems to me that schools not as important and it's
been freed down at look it's not important. It should
be important, and that I think this has given everyone,
or not everyone, but some family is a sense of
oh well yeah, do you know what when it comes
to school, and it breaks my heart.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
I put My opinion is probably controversial on this, but
I think if you're a student that is there, you
know ninety percent of the time, and you've got a
special occasion where you're going away for a family birthday
or like Sam's case, a trip of a lifetime with
the grandparents, I don't see the issue in taking one
or two weeks off if you're there most of the
rest of the time. I think the focus should be
(12:57):
on the kids that are having a day off every
week because they've got a little sniffle.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Yeah, I agree, that's what I'm talking about, going.
Speaker 5 (13:04):
There every Friday, you know, that's that's the real issue.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
Surely, I agree. So the most popular a lot of
people are actually taking the because during the school holidays now
like when you're supposed to. But as you know, if
you've ever tried to travel school holidays, the prices go
through the roof because everyone wants to travel during the holidays.
It gets really expensive.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
But it's not only that, it's it's very hard in
the working environment.
Speaker 5 (13:23):
We have to marry up everyone's leave.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
If you've got two working parents trying to get the
same leave as when the kids are off, it doesn't
always work that way.
Speaker 5 (13:32):
And I just think maybe they should be looking at.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
The child's overall record of attendance before they decide they
need to intervene, and surely if they've got attendants over
eighty five ninety percent, then these no issues.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
That's good because a lot of schools are cracking down
on this. The most popular holiday destinations, by the way Fiji,
Raratonga and the Gold Coast. However, these are also on
the list now. Bali family trips to Bali, London, LA
and Hawaii in those families.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Yeah, and what we want to know is did you
take your kids or have you or are you taking
your kids on a holiday and are you quite comfortable
with it or are you definitely someone that doesn't think
that should be allowed.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
Friends of ours did this a few years ago and
there's a bit of pushback from the school and their
argument was we actually going to go see some culture
overseas and go to museums and things like that, and
the kids are going to learn a lot whilether of seas. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Again, is that kid going to school eighty percent of
the time anyway?
Speaker 5 (14:22):
Because if they are, I don't see the issue.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
So were you bad bum? So have you done it?
Would you do it? Are you're okay with doing it?
Or you think absolutely not? What's your take on this?
You would have seen this in the news yesterday, maybe
that a lot of people are not taking the kids
out of school time anymore. They're actually saving up the
holidays to take the kids overseas during the holidays. It
didn't used to be that way though. Yeah, it's a
crackdown and.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
I think I don't know, I think truancy is definitely issue.
You have to address it. But I just don't know
if going for a holiday for one week to the problem.
Surely the constant truancy is what do you think, Noel,
did you used to take your kids out for school
holidays or in term time?
Speaker 8 (14:57):
Well, it was a normal sort of thing to do.
You're taking kids expect that, and the skills didn't mind
because it was like a class. Is like a social study.
Just think, I see how other people live. But now
with everything on the internet and TV programs, they can
see you how the rest of the world lives just
on the.
Speaker 5 (15:14):
Is it different though, to being there in person? Do
you think?
Speaker 8 (15:18):
Sorry?
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Is that?
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Do you think it's different to actually being there physically
than just seeing it online?
Speaker 8 (15:24):
Well, it's differently because use all traveled as well, and
you go to some places and you know, they think
we've talked very fast and you've got to slow down
and talk slowly to them. And do you think they
got an accent and they think we have an accent?
You don't see that on the TV.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
Do you? And you right know there are a lot
of travel TV programs. But I think you're right Tony
as well. I see both sides of this it's different when'
actually being there immersed in that culture and learning things.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
And I think the resilience as well of having to travel.
Inevitably things go wrong. I mean we're seeing that with Sam.
You're missing flights and it causes you a bit of
stress and you have to deal with it and then
you learn for the next time and counter that just
really quickly.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Have you done it kids out of school during school time?
Speaker 9 (16:03):
Yeah, most certainly. I feel that at a school times,
because you don't have all the other people out there,
the costs a much cheaper and also certainly causy time
with your children away. It's just as important as teaching.
It's very, very important to have that quality time.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
You're so right.
Speaker 5 (16:26):
I so agree with that.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
And the fast pace of life that we're living in now,
it doesn't exactly encourage being together as a family, does it.
So when you can grab those moments, I say the
same take them.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
As you all in the text on two six nine nine,
most people agreeing it's actually okay as long as you're
doing something they can learn and spend with his family time,
which you know is quite rare these days.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
I want you to tell me if you have ever
had an incident like this where you have suddenly just
decided that you can simply cannot live in your house
anymore unless you sought some things out. But sometimes it
starts for me and I and I go, there's a
mark on fridge, and then I look at the floor
and go, this will not do. And I get the
(17:04):
mop out and I scrub that floor within an inch
of its life. And then I look over and I
haven't dusted the mantlepiece. And then there's these old magazines
everywhere and else I have to get them. And even
if I'm tired, and it's like the stupidest time to
be doing it. It might be five o'clock at a Friday,
and my husband looks at me like, you have literally
lost your mind. I don't know what he's thinking. He's
thinking she's got perimetopause. And I know that he's thinking that,
(17:28):
and that makes me want to kill him.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Does he does he do one of two things? Does
he get out of the way, or does he try
and help out?
Speaker 1 (17:34):
I think in the beginning, remember we've been together for
over twenty years. In the beginning, he might try and
to intervene and say, hey, we don't need to do
it now, he just goes to another room because he
knows I'm just not going to stop until I sort
that out.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
So he's seeking refuge.
Speaker 5 (17:49):
But I'm here to tell.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
You today that there is a reason for it. And
actually we're not all psychos if we do that. Okay, good,
so woman, It turns out this is scientific knowledge. Now,
women are more sensitive to clutter than men. Cluster increases
the stress womone cortisol faster in women compared to men.
So women, if you're sitting there, going why does he
(18:12):
not care about this mess? Why is he not perturbed
by that stack of magazines that is blurted all over
the lounge. That is why they just don't care as much.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
And I just don't get it.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
And I think if we I think, if we know that,
it might not make us get as angry. And I think,
as men, if you know that our brains are predisposed
to hating clutter, maybe just maybe you might.
Speaker 5 (18:35):
Help us out from time to time. Is what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
Sounded quite aggressive though.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Also I just want to say, Jason, this is for
the women and you, because we all know that you
hate clutter.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
I'm listening to this trying to be quiet with stand clutter.
Speaker 5 (18:49):
Jase, you have part of this brain, Okay.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
I always thought you had a slightly female brain, and
that's why we're friends.

I love my job, don't get me wrong, but I
do also like a bit of time off.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
Yeah, So the entire world, and we've been very proactive
and talking about this here on Coast Breakfast because we've
interviewed Andrew Barnes. We did a podcast with him about
working a four day week, and that's what a lot
of countries are turning to because they've found out that
if you work four days a week rather than five,
you're actually more productive than.
Speaker 5 (23:45):
If you worked five.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
But Greece has decided to flip this model on its
head and they have introduced the six day working week
and it's coming in very very soon, and of people
into it, well, the unions have come out and said
it's bar barrack, so there is fierce opposition. So they've
had five hundred thousand Greek youths leave the country. So
(24:08):
they're in a big state of we don't have enough workers.
So the government center right government has taken this drastic move. Now,
on the face of it, I was like, oh, yeah,
six days a week, what are they thinking? Then I
started reading the detail and Actually it might not be
as bad as you think if you're someone that wants
to earn a little bit more cash and you're prepared
(24:29):
to just dig in for a little while.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
So this is if you're not on a salary, if
you want an hourly wage, makes sense, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
So the six day scheme will only apply to private
businesses who are providing round the clock services, so not
of you, like working for the government or anything that.
Speaker 5 (24:44):
Under the extended working week.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Staff and select industries and manufacturing facilities will have the
option it's optional, of working an additional two hours a day, right,
or an extra eight hour shift rewarded with a top
up feet of full percent added to the daily wage.
Whow okay, saying insteady an eight hour day, you can
(25:06):
work a ten hour day five days a week, or
you can add an entire extra day, but you're going
to get paid a lot more and it's a percentage
increase too.
Speaker 5 (25:16):
So there is a real incentive to do it, so.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
It's almost half your salary of wages. Again.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
On top are also saying that they think this will
redress the issue of employees not being paid for overtime,
while they're also tackling the pervasive problem of undeclared work.
Speaker 5 (25:30):
So they're saying some of you are already doing this
and not getting paid.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
Well, I was thinking about this way. You know, there
were some trade in before the ID crackdown. Of course,
no trades ever do it now. No, Well, but in
the weekends some tradees used to do certainly not nowadays. No
do the old perk job.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
So now if you do the extra hours, you're going
to get a forty percent extra pay rise. Now it's illegal,
so it's quite It's not as bad as what it
first seemed.
Speaker 5 (25:49):
I mean, I still don't know if I'm into it.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
There was a lot of people that sitting here as
we speak, and I bet you're one of them that
is already working a ten hour day, but you're only
getting paid for eight. So under this new scheme, those
extra two hours you'll be getting pad an extra forty
percent suddenly sounds a little appealing you in it.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
What do you reckon? Oh eight hundred double O four
coast call us afflix. It's a text to two six
nine nine six day a week, or you a couple
of hours a day and you paid forty percent more
than you're already earning what do you reckon? Send that
text to two six nine nine. Have you missed our
update from Sam from Italy around about this time yesterday
we heard there's some issues. They missed a couple of
trains and a couple of boat rides were way more
expensive than the book. No more flights and it turned
(26:26):
into a bit of a mess. Well, they've arrived at
a villa in Tuscany. This is my dream, this is
my bucket list. I want to do this.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
You need to go to his instagram actually and have
a look because they really are nailing it with the
private chef and everything.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
So yeah, and again you can get that update if
you missed it on the Coast Breakfast catch up podcast
text podcast the two six nine nine.
Speaker 5 (26:43):
After Italy, he then goes to Greece.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
This is where your husband's from.
Speaker 5 (26:49):
Ay it is.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
Yeah, I'd say I'm doing to go to Greece one
day and go and see all of our ancestors, well
my husband's side of the family, but I don't know
I would want to live there because they've just introduced
what's coming in very soon, a six day working week,
so it is optional if you're in a private company.
You can either add two hours a day to your
shifts so you've worked ten hour.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
Days, or you can do it a whole another day day.
Is this something that you'd be keen on.
Speaker 8 (27:15):
Yeah, I'd love to be paid for extra work doing,
but being a trade, we quite often do six days
a week.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
You do not uncommon to do seven days use self employed, Dave. Yeah, yeah,
that's it. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 8 (27:31):
And if you've given a quote then there's no extra
on top, so it's up to you to get stuck
into it and get it done.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
Really, if you were in Greece, you'd be getting an
extra forty percent for the extra hours and day work.
Speaker 5 (27:44):
So just mull that over, Dave. It could be a
good strategy.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
For you later in life. What about you, Shari, do
you like the idea of working an extra.
Speaker 5 (27:52):
Day week.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Not an extra day?
Speaker 2 (27:55):
I'd rather do the extra hours.
Speaker 9 (27:57):
I've worked a couple of jobs where I've worked the
extra hours and you don't get paid for it.
Speaker 8 (28:02):
Look, when I lived in Auckland, I hate traffic, so
my hours.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
Were eight till eight till five, so I'd.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
Be in by seven, missing the traffic, and I wouldn't
be leaving till after six, So I was working the
hours but not getting paid for it. Imagine that you'd
get you'd get an extra forty percent for those two
hours you worked, so it's a win win. I'd be
very happy.
Speaker 8 (28:23):
But I've worked another job to where I worked.
Speaker 7 (28:25):
I actually worked four days.
Speaker 6 (28:27):
A week, ten hour days, so, but it was two
days on, one day off, two days on, two days off.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
Oh you've got what was that job?
Speaker 1 (28:37):
That was actually nurse eating actually up in longer per
hour hard work. You'd get up on a Monday morning
and you'd be like, oh, crap, one more day, togo,
and then I've got a day off.
Speaker 3 (28:48):
Yeah, I don't like that's the way.
Speaker 9 (28:50):
Next on the Thursday, crap, one more day, but I've
got two days off.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
You know.
Speaker 5 (28:54):
It's so such a weird thing to think.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
And you got out of Bolton. Where are you now?
Speaker 1 (29:00):
I'm actually in Hawks Bay.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
Oh you've done the reverse of me. Yeah, beautiful, sure
thing for that. On the text on two six ninet nine,
most people are saying, give me the extra two hours
a day.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
I think so particularly a moment it hits eight hours,
you get that extra forty percent, and you're actually getting
paid for time you're working, so in a way it
is actually employee friendly.
Speaker 5 (29:22):
It seems like it's not.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
Just enjoy this is all for the Greek.
Speaker 5 (29:25):
Oh Greece.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
What a song.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
And then after work you're going into the beautiful water
and you're walking around the beautiful white.
Speaker 4 (29:33):
Building and you're smashing some plates and you're smashing some plates.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
I've seen the movies.
Speaker 5 (29:36):
You having some mousaka.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
But it's also World Country Music Day today, and you
think about country songs. You got to do when the whole.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
No, when the.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Fall that don't imposing me and Kenny Rogers.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
You've got Shenaia Twain. Our own producer Rosie a couple
of months ago released her first country album.
Speaker 5 (29:56):
She did Thank God She's a country girl.
Speaker 3 (29:58):
She is overboard that producer. If you google rosy teas
t E that's a t I google that you'll find
here a Rosie Happy Country Music Day today, Rosie over again.
(30:21):
Maybe some people go overboard with coffee badging. What is
coffee badging?
Speaker 1 (30:24):
By the way, well, can I just say no one
in this room does coffee badging, right okay? And it's
a new thing that is happening in offices and you
will absolutely know someone that is doing this. So it's
got nothing to do with actually drinking coffee, Okay, it's
just the timing of what coffee represents.
Speaker 5 (30:43):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
So are you someone that swipes into your office building
to meet you in person mandate, but then you leave
as soon as possible. And if that's your strategy, you
are the new term your coffee badging. So essentially you're
turning up to to be like I'm here. You go
around and you're like here everyone, so everyone can see
your face, but then you go quickly back to working
(31:07):
from home, so you're literally checking in. And do you
know what, Some employers are actually okay with this, some
of the managers, because the moment you step foot in
the office, they can say you went to the office
that day, regardless of how long you were actually in
the office.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
Stare right, yep.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
So this is happening, showing face at the office then leaving.
And apparently fifty eight percent of workers in the US
are coffee badging.
Speaker 5 (31:33):
You all know someone that does that.
Speaker 3 (31:35):
I see people here walk in say hi, and it
does be straight out the door to get a coffee. Yeah,
that must be the same.
Speaker 1 (31:40):
If they carried on home, or you know, maybe they
come in for a meeting, which is I don't know,
twenty minutes long time that it might take to have
a coffee break, and then they go home and work
from home for the rest of the day. It's the
new strategy of coffee badging. So you can say, yeah,
I went to the.
Speaker 5 (31:56):
Office on Tuesday. Were you in the office on Tuesday? Yeah,
I absolutely not a lie. That is not a lie.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
Genius, Well, payow.
Speaker 5 (32:05):
When you think about it.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
If you go into the office for a meeting and
then the rest of your day, you can literally do
it home. She don't need to interact with anyone. Why
would you stay. I mean, if we didn't have to
be chained to the studio, maybe we'd be coffee.
