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 about the largely unknown
condition of vertigo and how many Kiwis are suffering with
it at this moment.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
And after a month in Italy, what were the five
best foods of choice after eating pretty much everything.
Speaker 4 (00:24):
And grand parental pay We break that down as well,
and also why a priest is suing a dating app
for outing him have a note on his job back
on Kiwi Soil are rereadible. Month long holiday through Europe
a family trip of a lifetime.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Yeah, you can't just play it, tell you music. You
get to play French music, Turkish.
Speaker 5 (00:48):
We've heard this music every day that you've been away.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
It was it was magnificent. I mean, I don't even
know how to sum up this trip. I mean I think, well,
we'll go from the very beginning then, do you know.
I think one of the greatest moments of my life
life was turning up on a classic Mahogany river limousine
in Venice. You know those wooden boats that you see
George Cloney. Arriving. Yeah, arriving in Venice is one of
the greatest things you'll ever do, and it is the
(01:12):
most rock star moment you'll you'll ever ever experience. So
you turn up at the Venice airport and it just
looks like every other airport, but instead of walking up
the back and getting in a car, it's on a
marina and you get in and there's these beautiful Mahogany
limousines and you get in the back and it's a
va and you just power your way through the canals
of Venice. You turn up, you're looking around and it's
just monumental.
Speaker 6 (01:33):
Is it crazy busy?
Speaker 4 (01:34):
Because's what they're saying about this at the moment they
put these tourist tax on because there's too many people.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Yeah, we didn't feel like it was too busy. I
mean we did one day through the very heart of
Venice and it's crazy, right, But.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
At least we'd warned you about people grabbing your bags
and all of that.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
And that is a misternoma, Like there at no point
did anyone try and steal my wallet.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
And I had your suitcases, you know how they try
and carry them over the bridge today happen.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Yeah, a little bit. Yeah, Like it's a bit. We
had to carry our bags a long way to get
into the center of it.
Speaker 5 (02:03):
It's really not good for people that are disabled, is it.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
No, And my dad is in some respects as a
seventy eight year old man, you know, Like, it wasn't
easy for him carrying his suitcase over the top of bridges,
and we had prams and everything. Look, it's not an
easy place to get around with an old guy and
two young kids.
Speaker 5 (02:19):
How did the double pram go?
Speaker 3 (02:21):
It was a disaster, but it was also kind of
our savior as well, because we had these massive days
with little kids and you needed beds. Yeah, and you
needed beds. You could just push them around, but pushing
them through Pompeii was pretty much the cobblestone roads. What
were they thinking back in Pompeii? Workout for you though, Yeah, yeah,
although I've come back a little bit more a ton
than a light because all I've done is eat and drink.
Speaker 5 (02:42):
I can't wait to hear about the exercise regime today.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
No, I can summon up right now. I did three workouts,
but this is not about the workouts. This is about
how great it was Tuscany was an absolute highlight. Seven
days in Tuscany with a Paul and just going to
beautiful castles like San Jiminyaro where they have the best
ice cream or gelat in the world. My wife ordered
me cherry.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
I don't know what she was thinking that now, is
there a place of this This incredible trip you've just done,
is a place you would rush back to?
Speaker 6 (03:09):
First?
Speaker 3 (03:09):
South of France really nice? Is it is? It's like
it's lee bit rich and.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
That's why the rock stars all go to the do
you hear them go?
Speaker 6 (03:18):
A little baby? Players want to play on the South
of front.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
So when you turn up there and they go, that's
Bono's house there, and they going relistic, there's George Clooney's place,
and where's my place?
Speaker 5 (03:26):
You know it's in the back of the van.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
But anyway, I'm home, and I am quite glad to
be home. Like, traveling with young kids and old people
is hard, and it's really a month. That's about all
they had in me.
Speaker 5 (03:42):
Well, you always like coming home, that's the thing about travel, right, Yeah,
And I'm always an end.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
I joked about the weather before, but you actually doing
it's sick of thirty eight forty degree weather like it's
it's like a it's like living under a cloud the
whole time, even though there was no cloud and it
was so hot, and you come back in all of
a sudden that New Zealand's air is fresh and beautiful.
Speaker 6 (04:00):
For what you're in. Luck, isn't We went for a
cult snap this week.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Yeah, you'll give him a few days and he'll be
watching you.
Speaker 6 (04:07):
As back there. So today's the twenty ninth of July.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
Big day today in New Zealand because boot camps start today.
This is where the young offenders, you know, those military
style boot camps the government have been talking about.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
You're away by the way, Jason ran a red light
and stole gas from a picture station.
Speaker 6 (04:28):
But that's a story for later. Did you run a
red light?
Speaker 7 (04:29):
Man?
Speaker 6 (04:30):
No, No, it's a long story. I didn't. I've been
accused of it.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Off to the boot camp. That's a bit of running.
Speaker 6 (04:37):
So this is the thing.
Speaker 4 (04:37):
So ten young offenders have been selected to be part
of the government's boot camp trial, which starts today.
Speaker 6 (04:41):
The trial lasts for a year and this is the criteria.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
I don't know the criteria to be involved in this,
but to be selected you already have to be in
one of those youth facilities.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Because remember Jason was the ferrari around labeling them serious
young offenders.
Speaker 6 (04:54):
Yeah, which was just what they are.
Speaker 5 (04:55):
Which I didn't understand because I'm like, that's literally.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
What they are, and they know they are, and we
know they are, because apparently it was going to make
it worse for them.
Speaker 6 (05:03):
They know that they are.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
Here's how you get selected. You have to have been
convicted of two crimes. It would have had a centers
of at least ten years in the last couple of years.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
It's not broad enough ten year sentence.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
Yeah, so you have to at least two of those
to be on this list to be part of this trial.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
So so, quite honestly, we are dealing with serious criminals,
real big y.
Speaker 5 (05:22):
They happen to be young.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
So these are people age between fourteen and seventeen. That's
what I'm talking about. And the New Zealand Defense Force
is involved with us, and somebody like, oh, it's gonna
be too hard on them, the Defense Force military style
boot camp.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
No, I don't reckon just the criminals. I reckon the
whole generation of youngsters. That'll teach them a lesson. Oh, absolutely,
give them, give them a year of it and make them,
make them run and train and learn some discipline, pull
their socks up a little bit.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Actually had experience with the boot camp, because I genuinely have.
I went to Burnham Army Camp for about ten days
as an introduction to the sports scholarship I got at
Lincoln University. So for ten days I lived in the
Army bear and did Burnham style and.
Speaker 5 (06:02):
I loved it.
Speaker 6 (06:03):
Did you feel?
Speaker 5 (06:04):
Yes, they would yell at us sometimes, but I bloody
loved it. I'm not really fit. The food was great.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
Learned to march I did. She's a wonderful march.
Speaker 5 (06:14):
We did.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
We had to march, We had to do beat tests,
We had to go through the mud, caring barrels and people.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Fowing guns over your head. Where were you crawled through?
Speaker 1 (06:25):
There was no gun fire, although God that would have
been exciting.
Speaker 5 (06:29):
But what I'm saying is at the end of.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
It, I left a wreck, exhausted, but my soul was full.
Is that I And I know I'm not the person
that's going to get put there now because they have
a raft of serious issues.
Speaker 5 (06:42):
But and I was a.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
He's looking for a spot.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
I have a few ten years, so you'll be fascinating.
Speaker 6 (06:53):
So that book came.
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Trial starts today and it'll be fascinating to see what
happens from here. I reckon it's going to work.
Speaker 5 (06:58):
Just what they need to do.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
They need to these boot camp facilities need to let
the cameras in film the whole thing so people can
make up their own minds as to whether it's okay
or not. Yes, that history thinks it's going to be,
you know, bashing them.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
And make sure.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
I suspect there'll be stories of young lies being turned
around by these things.
Speaker 6 (07:18):
That's my hope. Yeah, the trial starts today.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
We've just had a result in the men's freestyle four
hundred meter.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
Swim and individual medley. It was yeah, four hundred individual medley.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
So the Frenchman, the hot favorite, has just one by landslide.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Eight body lengths. Think about that.
Speaker 6 (07:34):
This is a world record.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
No, he was just he was an Olympic record, not
a world record. Oh wow, but boy did he swim well.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
And Lewis Claibert are key, we hope finished in sixth.
Unfortunately for him, a couple of seconds slower than his
personal best, so he would have known he needed to
swim as peb to be in the medal contention, so
he'll be a bit bummed. But he has got other
races to come. So and we've got another We've got
at seven thirty seven, to be precise, sorry, one hundred
fly six forty five, which is really soon five minutes, Hazel.
(08:03):
And then we've got one hundred backstroke with Caine follows
at seven thirty seven, and then Erica feirwa Her, who
was pipped for the bronze, has got her two hundred
freestyle semi final.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Don't almost have beautiful bodies?
Speaker 6 (08:15):
Oh this stuff? I was looking at that they but hey.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
Leon Marsham is the is the one to remember because
he's gonna he's looking like the new Michael Phelps.
Speaker 6 (08:26):
In front of his home crowd to go him.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Hey, So to Monday morning, and every Monday, what we
do is we flick through the weekend stories. We find
the stories that says and I found one by praying
for a lawsuit. So there's a priest who was suing a.
Speaker 6 (08:41):
Dating app for outing him.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
So when Jeffrey Burrell began using Grinder, which is like
a homosexual men dating site, apparently he started back in
twenty seventeen, no indication that anyone outside the dating app
would ever find out his details.
Speaker 6 (08:55):
So he signs up.
Speaker 5 (08:56):
I can do this like Ashley Madison. They don't want
you know, when they go to have.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
A Yeah, no one will find out where is this
priest from what country?
Speaker 4 (09:03):
While she's a Catholic priest though, and so in twenty twenty.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
One, pharmacy is quite high on the priest.
Speaker 6 (09:10):
That's it.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Yeah, So twenty twenty one, somehow the information that he
is on there has been leaked out. Now so because
what happened apparently is the dating app, and we know
it happened, but we don't we well, yeah, well, so
apparently the data got sold. You know how let you
sign the sumations and third parties and by the data.
It's exactly what grinder did. So in twenty twenty one
it came out that this guy is there. Now he
(09:31):
had to quit because he was the top administrator of
you at the US US Conference of Catholic Bishops. So
in this job, yes, he had to think of our celebracy. Also,
Catholic teaching opposes sexual activity outside of heterosexual marriage, so
Jeffrey is breaking all kinds of.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
Rules so he's not just using the app though you
know it.
Speaker 6 (09:49):
Was fully engaged in it. Apparently, apparently, how.
Speaker 5 (09:52):
Else do you use it without being fully engaged?
Speaker 6 (09:54):
That's right.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
I thought there was only one way it was.
Speaker 6 (09:57):
To be used.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
You'd be using it for socializing other than the other s.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Word grinder is absolutely not for socialized Jump to conclusions
if you want to do.
Speaker 6 (10:08):
That's the way.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Jeffrey has quit his job and now he's trying to
soothe them, and other people.
Speaker 6 (10:12):
Are going well.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
To be fair terms and conditions. I'm guessing privacy is
quite high on the list, so we might have a point.
Speaker 6 (10:21):
He made it, but it doesn't read them. He didn't.
I'd fall on my sword. I episode to speak.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
He's fallen on many stores.
Speaker 6 (10:27):
Okay, okay.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
Back from a sojourn around Europe, including through France.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Yeah, I don't want to talk about Venice at this point,
because I made a purchase in Venice. It was a
clock and a place called Murano, which is famous internationally
for its glass making, its glass blow, and we went
and saw a demonstration of them blowing beautiful glass, and
there was a man there that is, you know, twenty
generations of glassblower and made stuff for the Pope.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Did you what did you buy?
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Because I've got a few thoughts on what if you
got to choose a glass object, what you might ask
for based on previous trips around New Zealand glass blowing.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Well, I blew a penis once when I was on.
Speaker 5 (11:08):
Again Tell People what You're Really Breakfast.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Television, and I got a fit of trouble for it,
but it was very funny.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
At that time. We were also in Wan and you
wanted them to make you.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Again, and they refused, and you kept asking to pay
them cash and kept up in the off and they're like, no,
we're not going.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
To do that.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
I bought a clock in Morano, and and when I
bought it, I talked from down. Boy. I did a
great job of negotiating the price. I got it down
to turn ninety euros. It is a multi colored clock.
Speaker 5 (11:39):
Okay, everyone thinks they got a deal of rano.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
And then I want and I walked out of Morano
and I walked down just to a normal shop on
the side of the road, and that same clock was
one hundred euros.
Speaker 5 (11:49):
Chief, And I bet she took you out to a
secret room out the back too.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Let's have a conversation in the secret room out back.
So anyway, they got more complicated in that because when
I purchased the clock, I bought it under the proviso
that they would send it back to Auckland's safe and sound.
But I apparently after I paid for it, they said
you have to spend a thousand euros in order to
get that free shipping.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
Because it's made of glass, right, curious.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Yeah, So what they did is they packed it up
and then it had twenty six more days of travels
in my bag and I have it right here in
the studio but unopened, and I don't know if it's
made it or not. And there's there were some punches
all over.
Speaker 5 (12:29):
The cobbles you've had your suitcases, And.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
About how intricate this thing is, how fragile this is basically.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
I'll show you in just a second, but it's a
sun and every little soul of flare on the sun
all the way around the outside is a very fragile
piece of glass with a pendulum that swings off the bottom.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Took us through why you chose a flaming sun clock.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Because I couldn't afford the glasses that I wanted they
were a thousand euros.
Speaker 6 (12:54):
Would free shipping?
Speaker 3 (12:55):
I would have, but I wanted the picture with the
beautiful glasses, you know, engine drinking gin from a glass
from Marana for the rest of your day.
Speaker 5 (13:03):
But now you can look every time you look at
the time, assuming it's not broken.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
I'm going to open it right now.
Speaker 6 (13:08):
It's broken a lot.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
I reckon, I reckon, it's okay. I reckon, it's glad.
Speaker 6 (13:12):
I think they know how to pack things. Yeah, it's
not broken.
Speaker 5 (13:16):
No, please, no, look at that is intact.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
It's complete. But where's the pendulum that swings off the
broke off off?
Speaker 5 (13:25):
It's not going to work. It's now a platter.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Is complete, but swings at the bottom.
Speaker 6 (13:41):
It's going to be good news, and it's there.
Speaker 5 (13:44):
I think that's another thousand.
Speaker 6 (13:45):
Yet it separately?
Speaker 5 (13:50):
Is that broken?
Speaker 6 (13:51):
So it's removable pendulum?
Speaker 5 (13:53):
Oh we're good everyone. I reckon. That will look really
nice in the kid's room.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Do you not like it?
Speaker 7 (13:59):
No?
Speaker 5 (13:59):
I think it's really pretty.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Would you not put it in a lounge?
Speaker 8 (14:06):
Jason?
Speaker 5 (14:07):
Did you put it in your lounge?
Speaker 6 (14:08):
My lounge?
Speaker 5 (14:10):
Be honest.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
You've got you've got like jet planes, You've got big
up jet planes.
Speaker 6 (14:16):
Up on your walls right next to it.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
It's really pretty any when you look at that clock,
you'll think of your trip, which is awesome.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
Beautiful, and losing one hundred hundred euro to the wrong place.
Speaker 6 (14:27):
But you can't put a price on that. Is that happiness?
That's happiness.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Coasts Feel Good Breakfast catch Up podcast with Tony Street,
Jason Reeves and Sam Wallace.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
We need to talk about parental leave, but a different
kind grand parental leave. So you know how you go
on leave, maternity leave or the parental lever if you're
the dad and you get paid by the government to
have that time.
Speaker 5 (14:59):
I don't know how much. Which is it now? For men?
Is it ten days paternity leave? It's something like that,
and for women it's a lot more.
Speaker 6 (15:08):
Right, you get several months opportunity.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Yeah, what if you could take that as a grandparent right,
So essentially, like take me, for example, I when I
was working on Breakfast TV, I was just about to
start a job when I had my first child, and
I went back after about fourteen weeks.
Speaker 6 (15:26):
It's twenty six weeks. It's up to twenty six weeks apparently.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
Sorry, So essentially instead of me being paid after the
fourteen weeks for the parental leave because I was going.
Speaker 5 (15:33):
Back to work.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
You could give that to a grandparent that would step
in and cover those hours when you're at work.
Speaker 5 (15:38):
What do we think of it?
Speaker 3 (15:39):
So you loved it, you have to transfer it today
you can't use it for yourself and for your grandparents.
Speaker 5 (15:44):
I think you have to transfer it.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
But this is what Sweden is doing and it has
been received with open arms, and it's now started the
debate here. Would you want to be paid to look
after your grandchildren as a grandparent? And I've actually had
this discussion with my mum before because when we were
the kid start at school. When I went back to work,
lots of people around me. You know, a grandparent will
have set days that they look after the kids, will
(16:06):
pick them up from school. It might be like a
Monday and a Thursday. And she said to me, I
wouldn't want to have regular days that I looked after
the kids because I would not want it to feel
like a job. I want to be the grandparent that
when I see them, I'm sure I'll look after them heaps,
and she does, but I don't want it to be
a regular thing because I don't want it to feel
like it's a job.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
I get that it likes to make a bit of
money while you do it, though, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
You know, she was really into it for that reason.
I don't think everyone will have that same opinion.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
I think, you know, if a family is really stretched
and they're having to really rely on the grandparents and
it's taking from their lives, and.
Speaker 5 (16:41):
Absolutely I'd rather pay them than.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
It means that also that the grandparents can afford to
do things with the kids, you know, to take them
for a morning or do it with something like that.
Speaker 5 (16:54):
So I'll tell you that ins it out.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
So Swedish couples can transfer forty five days of the
combined and four hundred and eighty days of leave to
their child's grandparents, while a single father or mother can
transfer ninety days of it.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
It's the ambulance at the bottom of the cliff, though,
wasn't it. You know, like the fact that we're having
to pay grandparents to look after because that we live
in a society where the bulk of the world has
to have two parents working to pay the bills. But
doesn't that broken?
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I do, Yeah, I agree with you, but I do
feel like when you first, particularly when you have your
first child. You know you're a nervous new parent, and
I remember thinking, my mom's the only person and my
mother in law are the only two people that I'd
feel comfortable at this vulnerable young stage leaving my child with.
So I want to trust if that bridges the gap
till your child gets a little bit older where you
(17:40):
feel comfortable.
Speaker 5 (17:42):
I think it's a good thing.
Speaker 6 (17:44):
I think, do it, But then the grandparents are like,
don't pay me.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
That's what I want to do it with my heart,
with my love, so not the government is who want
to do well here? So honestly, would you be comfortable
paying grandparents? And if you are a grandparents, would you
be comfortable taking some money if you look after the grandkids?
Let us know, love to hear your thoughts. I wait
for a double four coast Star phone number or flick
as a text and seeing the text to two six
nine nine. There's a lot that's coming over in Sweden
at the moment where they can pay the grandparents looking
(18:08):
after the kids.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Yeah, so you it's essentially transferring part of your pay
per rental leave. So it's the government's subsidy and we
have twenty six weeks in New Zealand. So if you
could give if you wanted to go back to work
and give your parents or your in laws forty five
days of that to cover that sort of transition, you
could if you're in Sweden.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
And it enables you to get back to your job quicker,
doesn't it, And it means that your baby's in the
best hands it could possibly be.
Speaker 6 (18:34):
Mark, What are your thoughts on this?
Speaker 7 (18:36):
Yeah, I'm not sure. I think it's opening a can
of worms because it will start mutting the waters when
you find if you haven't got grandparents, can any transfer
to your brother or sister in law or your long
distant cousin or thing. You know, it's the guy down
the road. And I'm not sure. My wife and I
we were always the parents first. Everything else came second.
Speaker 5 (18:57):
Yeah, that's you're so right.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
That could be really niggly because then people will say, well,
we don't have grandparents, so we want to use the
neighbors Auntie Sue who has been like a grandparent.
Speaker 5 (19:08):
And yeah, it does get quiet.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
It's not just grandparents have passed away. What about immigrants
that have become citizens that don't have family here? You know,
there's a whole lot.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
And I think what Mark was kind of getting at too.
We don't want reasons to give people reasons to race
back to work, and I almost feel like this is
giving you another reason to race back to work.
Speaker 6 (19:26):
Yeah, So what are your thoughts on this?
Speaker 9 (19:29):
I think, well, I went back to work when I
was my first little boy was six weeks old, and
both I was really lucky because I had a mother
in law and a mother who I guess you called
it like job shared and looked after him. But that
(19:50):
was my children, and they asked me to.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
Look after as their child.
Speaker 9 (19:57):
I couldn't take money.
Speaker 4 (19:59):
A lot of grandparents and they are.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
But the problem here is someone's got to take that
government subsidy, don't they. So where's that money going? Well,
you're saying essentially you'd gift it back to them, is
that what you're saying?
Speaker 9 (20:12):
I mean the generation today, you know, both parents are working,
they're straggling. You know, it's hard out there, and I
think I just couldn't. I couldn't. I mean, I'm I'm
probably coming up to retirement age now myself, and I
have the privilege of of not working. So my my
(20:34):
scenario is slightly different to perhaps a person that's still employee.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
That's what makes it a great debate because there's so
many different scenarios and situations within families. It sees an
interesting precedent, though, doesn't it Like you pay your grandparents
for the first few weeks of their lives to help out,
and then that money drives up the subsidy and then
they're like, well, I'm still looking after.
Speaker 10 (20:55):
Government.
Speaker 11 (20:58):
Yeah, hi there, how's it going to go?
Speaker 6 (20:59):
Good things? What do you reckon?
Speaker 5 (21:00):
Yeah?
Speaker 11 (21:01):
I reckon. I'm the whole babysitting for the social hours
is for free as free bees, as grandparents. And then
but if you're working, if you're at work and got
the kids, then a bit of money makes the will
go around.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Yeah, it does. It helps, isn't it.
Speaker 5 (21:16):
Yeah, it's an interesting debate, isn't it. It really is?
Speaker 1 (21:19):
And thank you for your text. We're getting them in
thick and fast once. Just come through high guys. The realities.
Thousands of grandparents are raising their grandchildren's full time. My
husband and I have raised three grandchildren for the past
sixteen years. So yes, part time grandparents should grandparenting should
also be allowed, and.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
Those are the ideal situations where this would work at
its best.
Speaker 4 (21:38):
You can text us any time about anything. It's seen
that text to two sixty nine nine. Well we got
really early this morning. Welcome back, Sam. Yeah, the team
is back together. It's been so long.
Speaker 5 (21:47):
I feel like we haven't seen you for half a year.
Speaker 7 (21:49):
You know.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
I've just done the most remarkable trip, and I am
so happy to be home. Not because I don't want
to be on holiday, but we really are fortunate to
work in a wonderful team, aren't we.
Speaker 6 (21:56):
Yeah? I reckon you guys.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
I wish you guys were on the trip. I would
have had more babysitters.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
We love you being back. As long as you don't
talk about having put on weight on holiday.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
I want to talk about things worse than that right now, because.
Speaker 5 (22:06):
It's something worse.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
I am forty three years old, and just a day
or so ago, on the way home, I did something
on a plane that I have never done in my
forty three year old history.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
Do we really want it? Is this appropriate? No?
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Not really, but I wanted to talk about it because
I thought I thought that, and I came in and
I asked Jace this morning, he has never done it.
Speaker 5 (22:25):
Where is your mind gone.
Speaker 7 (22:26):
All right.
Speaker 4 (22:27):
Well, when he first starts me, have you done this?
There's something I did on a plane I've never done before.
Speaker 6 (22:30):
Have you done it? I was like, he's going to
talk about a certain club you can join.
Speaker 5 (22:33):
That's what I thought it good for.
Speaker 6 (22:36):
That, and you haven't done it.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Jason hasn't done it.
Speaker 6 (22:41):
It's not about me.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
Ladies and gentlemen. I did a plane pooll coming back
from Dubai. I did a plane poop.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
I thought you would have got a bit cultured being
in your firm, but you come back as crass.
Speaker 3 (22:52):
As I thought that.
Speaker 5 (22:53):
I reckon.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
There's a lot of people that will relate to this
and avoided that their entire lives and.
Speaker 5 (22:59):
The phone for this Texas.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
A lot of people that you haven't done it.
Speaker 6 (23:05):
Congratulations, you haven't done it.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
You haven't done it.
Speaker 5 (23:10):
You analyze totally.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
Have you done it?
Speaker 5 (23:12):
What is wrong with you?
Speaker 3 (23:13):
Why are we talking to you one moment of honesty?
Have you ever done a playing You've just.
Speaker 5 (23:19):
Been Europe for a month. I'm not coming back and
talking about.
Speaker 6 (23:24):
This is never going to make it.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
This is an amazing though I think of it. She's
a piece of society that there's going to relate to
a lot of people to six nine nine if.
Speaker 6 (23:34):
You're relating to no one right three years old.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
And I have finally, I have, I have broken the
curse Olympics.
Speaker 5 (23:41):
The good, the bad, and the ugly. We need to
talk about it.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
And I've been tasked with having three things every morning
and I'm.
Speaker 5 (23:48):
Excited to do so. And it's actually hard. Well, they weren't.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
As much as I'm proud of our athletes, there are
no medals to talk about you right, for.
Speaker 5 (23:55):
The good, it's pretty quick.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
So for the good today, as much as I'm I
think our best, our best was Eric a fair weather,
but I'm not going to talk about that. The good
for me, the highlight over the last sort of three
or four days was actually the French rugby sevens team.
They were magnificent. You have to go and see. We'll
put it up on one of our social platforms and
see the French rugby team dancing in perfect choreography to
(24:23):
Will Smith's Miami.
Speaker 5 (24:25):
Now.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
Apparently they did this as a team camaraderie and the
lead up to these games. It's really worked for them.
And I have never seen athletes dance so well. They
were epic and It was also a Will Smith song
from the early nineties and it just spoke to myself.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
Absolutely, and I think it's part of wonderful team building.
Speaker 11 (24:44):
You know.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
It shows a team that is hugely united. And do
you know who does that really well, our all black
coach Scott Robinson.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Yes, you actually this might have sparked something in him.
You might try and passes moves on to the rest
of the team. I look forward to that. The Baars
and you might have seen this the poor someone boxing.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Coach age sixty heart attack in the village did like
so heartbreaking only sixty as well, and everyone's coming out
and saying how wonderful he was and he was doing
what he loved.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
But that has gone way too soon. So that was
devastating to hear. And the ugly was and you might
have seen this in the opening ceremony, but when they
introduced the South Korea country, they said North Korea literally
their eternal enemy.
Speaker 5 (25:32):
They were. It's just like the other day when Bill
who was it Biden introduced Zelensky as putin, how can
you make that mistake?
Speaker 3 (25:43):
Those are the two biggest mistakes you can literally voice.
Speaker 6 (25:46):
We've been called Australia before we can deal with that.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
It's nothing like this, that's not I felt really sorry
for them, and they've they've put out their heart felt apology,
but that is total foot in the mouth.
Speaker 6 (25:57):
That funny though, a little bit speaking of foot in
the mouth is going to happen to one of us
chas on Coast. Okay, we roll the dice. It chanced
to take us on and our cash, and.
Speaker 5 (26:08):
Do you need us to keep you up to date
with what happened while you're are? We did.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
We didn't lose until someone accidentally did.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
What did you get it up to?
Speaker 5 (26:17):
Well, okay, I'm just going to one, two hundred of
then I'm going to throw the question at you. Sure,
how many zeros in a million?
Speaker 3 (26:23):
Six?
Speaker 5 (26:25):
Well?
Speaker 6 (26:25):
Plays?
Speaker 5 (26:27):
Poor old j said seven?
Speaker 1 (26:29):
And then we figure Then we interviewed ed Burn and
he asked Burn.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
Burn said sex and Jason said no, it's seven. And
I forgot that it was wrong. It was so funny.
Speaker 6 (26:39):
That's what they call an implosion.
Speaker 4 (26:41):
Yeah, anyway, cool, now if you want to play eight
hundred double O four.
Speaker 5 (26:45):
Coast Redemption Day, Bud, I thought it was.

a good opportunity to take down the most successful chaser

Speaker 2 (30:23):
What is that?
Speaker 3 (30:23):
It's the tongue to do people know that?
Speaker 5 (30:27):
Because I had no idea that would have been the
first question.
Speaker 6 (30:30):
Was it Tokyo?
Speaker 5 (30:32):
Was the city Tokyo?
Speaker 6 (30:33):
Of course? The Los Angeles? Isn't it?
Speaker 3 (30:35):
Of course?
Speaker 6 (30:36):
I would have been somewhere in India actually.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
And we've played Afghanistan many times in one day is
but never in a test.
Speaker 4 (30:42):
Not a test, would I say Pakistan A curly question.
That was hard for I menaged just with the skin
of my teeth. Andrew, thank you very much for playing.
So we played out for five hundred dollars tomorrow though
that was hard.
Speaker 6 (30:54):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (30:54):
So the results from Erica fair with US two hundred
meter freestyle in this one. So she's fight about seven,
so she's in the final tomorrow morning about quarter to eight.
Speaker 5 (31:03):
So she finds it about this.
Speaker 3 (31:04):
Is she fast enough?
Speaker 11 (31:05):
Though?
Speaker 5 (31:05):
Well, I've got some stats for you.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
She just swam at one fifty six and her PB
is one fifty four, so she's got two seconds up
her sleep. If she can pull out a stunner and
do her PB, then she could be in the middle
hunt to middle.
Speaker 6 (31:17):
Hunt tomorrow morning. So to swim of her life. Yeah,
call it to wait tomorrow morning.
Speaker 4 (31:21):
The last on only player was Baby Come Back, And
here has come back from a month in Europe of
family holiday of a lifetime, Sam with his parents and
his sister and her family and your family as well.
What an amazing holiday. So and again I've say before,
in the two years leading up to this though you've
been in shape, you've been working out, you've been lecturing
us on our diets and our workout regimes.
Speaker 3 (31:38):
It's become a religion for me, and the results speak
for themselves. Well, it's not about the results. It's about
the head space, isn't it. And it's got me into
a wonderful head space. But I tell you what, I
slipped over there. It's very hard to stay in a
calorie deficit in Italy.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
I love how you say it's not about the results,
and then you like, here, come look at my graph.
Speaker 6 (31:56):
Yeah, okay, should labs.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
It's mostly about result when I have let slip and
on a whole new level. I I got over there
with the idea that if I'm gonna eat badly, I
don't eat less of it. That was not what happened.
I got over there and I ate everything in front
of me that was through Italy, and that was through
the cruise boat as well.
Speaker 5 (32:15):
Tell us what you ate, give us some done, some joy.
Everything we hear about brocca and chicken.
Speaker 3 (32:22):
If I don't see a bowl of pasta or pizza
for another three years, I really don't care like that.
Do you know what I think the Italian so I
think they westernize everything, So you know, you kind of
don't want that, do you You want that authentic thing,
But they just bring out plates and plates of pasta
and spaghetti the whole time, and I ate them.
Speaker 5 (32:37):
I think that's what they do there.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
Like my experience when I was at Italy is they
do the pizzas and they put the topping on, and
I remember feeling a bit affronted because the topic would
just be in like one third of the pizza it
on and I was like, what about the other bits?
Speaker 5 (32:50):
Liked? I mean delicious?
Speaker 3 (32:53):
Still, yeah, it was delicious. They don't need a lot
of vegetables though, and the sauce doesn't count a you know,
I think my fiber accounts really low as well. Anyway,
I have the countown of the top five foods. While
in this leaf for them up. So number five on
the list was the lemon sawbet, often served in a
lemon Absolutely insane, especially considering they're in a heat wave
over there. It was delicious. Number four on the list.
(33:14):
I went to a town called sand jimminy Elni, which
is in Florence, and they have an ice cream store
there that repeatedly wins the best ice cream in the world,
and I had, well, my wife ordered me the cherry
and I had a few nillles of that, and then
I had the salted caramel. The salted caramel ice cream
from San Jimminiano, the best ice cream in the world,
was literally the best ice cream in the.
Speaker 5 (33:35):
World because it was gelato. You had right.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
So the difference between ice cream and gelato. Gelato contains
less milk fat than ice cream is churned at a
low slower rate, as typically served at a warmer temperature,
introducing less air to the dessert and yielding a softer
dens denser texture.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
Good knowledge. Number three on the list was Terramiso. We
went to a medieval festival in a castle and then
on our way down we left and we found a
family restaurant. There were no tourists there and the terramasoux
there was mind blowing like and it was served in
a giant bowl like it was. It was as big
as the clock I bought.
Speaker 6 (34:12):
Oh wow.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
Remember we did msou here when we did that from
Art de la Pasta, when we learned how to make it,
that terramassoux was great.
Speaker 5 (34:21):
So if you even in m were a road Art
dela Pasta, that's very good.
Speaker 3 (34:26):
We did a cooking class in Tuscany as well. A
lady came around and we did what are the little
parcels of pasta called. We did that with a spinach
and ricotta. That was that's just amazing.
Speaker 5 (34:39):
I saw you actually cooking with your shoes off.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
Well see that was unfair.
Speaker 5 (34:43):
It looks the thing was accosted for that.
Speaker 3 (34:48):
Well a little bit, yeah, but the cooking just some
people shot off, mate, your hero. But the thing is
we did the cooking class right next to the pool,
so in between courses and stuff, you're in a kitchen.
Of course, it wasn't the best thing from the cooking class.
The number two on my list was the veal wraps.
They do a veal dish over there where they wrap
sundried tomato, mozzarella and and sage, fresh sage and a
(35:12):
little parcel we cook those. That was amazing. Number one
of us though, it was a ham and cheese sandwich.
So this was in Venus. Well, it was fresh, the
freshest bridge you've ever tasted. And what they do is
they take out the cheese and the ham, and they
do cheese and ham like no one else does in
the world. They take it out, then they they cook
(35:32):
the bread, and then they put the fresh ingredients back
into the sandwich. No kind of not, kind of the
opposite of melting. I think we're over melting our cheese.
Speaker 6 (35:41):
It's my point.
Speaker 3 (35:42):
So the ingredients and I'll tell you what, it was
the most delicious thing I had. And the entire time
I was over there, ham and cheese.
Speaker 1 (35:50):
Sandwich and look saying, we know that you haven't blown
out with your diet because I get the forty degree
heat and the nose shirt by the pool, But why
have you not got your shoot on now?
Speaker 5 (35:58):
I mean it's like it's like twelve Oh.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
You go, true, that's not true.
Speaker 6 (36:01):
What the texts and wonderful text from the brilliant Adam.
I hate everything my God said.
Speaker 4 (36:05):
It sounds like you may have here I said, enjoyed
yourself like the rest of us.
Speaker 3 (36:09):
The buffeto on a cruise ship. If you've never been
cruising before, there is just food. You can order as
much as you want, whenever you want it.
Speaker 5 (36:15):
It is free ice creams.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Don't worry Adam, because I think he did enjoy himself.
But he's already got his gym gear and he's about
to go back into misery town.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
The calorie deficit is real.
Speaker 6 (36:27):
Sorry, welcome to have you back, mate, welcome home.
Speaker 3 (36:28):
It's so good to be back.
Speaker 4 (36:30):
The big opening ceremony was on Saturday morning, and people
were talking about it for like, right across the weekend.
Speaker 6 (36:34):
Because it was phenomenal.
Speaker 4 (36:35):
Three hundred thousand people packed the streets around Paris to
watch that.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
Yeah and so different if you didn't get the highlights. Essentially,
teams came out in mini boats, some large boats as
they went down the river saying, my girls loved seeing
Lady Gaga come out with all the pink feathers, and
then Celine Diong belting out of tune in front of
the Eiffel Tower. I mean, that's got to be one
of the most iconic sights you'll ever see.
Speaker 4 (37:00):
I honestly thought they had diamonds on the piano and
then I realized it was the rain.
Speaker 6 (37:03):
But it looked spectacular. I loved it.
Speaker 5 (37:05):
And what about the nod to the runway.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
My personal favorite thing was they did a real nod
to their theatrical side, so they had lamers that are
but when they started doing that, I was like, oh
my goodness.
Speaker 4 (37:19):
Even right at the start time, you must have loved
this as well. You know when those explosions went off
on that bridge, but it was like the colors of
the flag went up and die.
Speaker 6 (37:26):
Really really, that was the start of it.
Speaker 1 (37:28):
I think it's actually changed the opening ceremony because no
one has thought ever to not have it based in
the stadium.
Speaker 5 (37:35):
So I feel like in La watched this space, so
we're going to see.
Speaker 1 (37:38):
Them down Hollywood Boulevard or something like that.
Speaker 3 (37:41):
They were punished for them for their decision though, because
it rained, didn't it, And I think that dampened what
it looked like visually. I mean, news dot Com described
it as a two doll Coles croissant. That's how underwhelming
the opening ceremony was. Analogy.
Speaker 1 (37:54):
I kind of know what Sam means because when they
all came out in boats. It did kind of slow
the pace down. You know, usually when they're walking in
they kind of get a bit of a pace as
thus circling the track, So that side of it was
a bit tricky.
Speaker 5 (38:08):
I reckon they should do maybe a bit of both.
Next time, do Hollywood Boulevard then go to La Stadium.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
Yeah, that's the reason why our Kiwi athletes are suffering
that they've got motion sickness for bobbing around like corks.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
Still true, no middles yet, but still. What did you
think of the Slendy Old performance?
Speaker 6 (38:24):
Though?
Speaker 11 (38:25):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (38:25):
I thought she was magnificent.
Speaker 6 (38:27):
I loved it. I thought she was stunning.
Speaker 5 (38:29):
Well yeah, stiff person who that guy?
Speaker 6 (38:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (38:32):
Yeah, she did amazingly.
Speaker 4 (38:34):
Well how does Snoop dog become part of us? I mean,
it's good seeing me, but how is that?
Speaker 1 (38:40):
I have no idea, Although I did like seeing Serena
Williams she was there as well. A little nod to
Superstars of Tennis Raphael Nadal he got to be part
of it.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
I think it's clever Snoop Dogg. You know, if anyone
can keep a flame going, it's Snoop Dogg. He was
in charge of Key.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
Who's also is been spotted at the gymnastics watching some
on biles. So anyone who's also I saw Cindy Crawford
and her daughter Kay Gerber, the model. They were there
on the sidelines. Anyone who's anyone is at these games?
Speaker 5 (39:12):
Sam, you should have.
Speaker 6 (39:13):
Stayed in Europe.
Speaker 5 (39:14):
Yeah, and waved the flag for us.
Speaker 3 (39:17):
I couldn't afford it.
Speaker 4 (39:20):
They reckon, eleven million people will go to Paris the
next couple of weeks to watch the Olympics.
Speaker 6 (39:24):
Eleven million people.
Speaker 3 (39:26):
Do you know? When I was in the south of
France and Nice, the Tour de France actually finished the
day before we got there, and there they were pulling
down all the Tour de France banners and stuff, and
they had to pull it down because that's sorry. They
had to have it in Nice because obviously the city
was consumed by the Olympics, so Nice as opposed to
chance Alise.
Speaker 1 (39:46):
I actually heard that the tour was supposed to be
there an extra day, but they heard the wallaces were
coming and they were scared, You're going to put on
yourl like Crah. We need to talk about Vertigo now,
and that is the new episode of that We Need
to Talk podcast. That is dropping today, so you can
go and get it right now wherever you download podcasts.
iHeartRadio is a good idea. Now, Vertigo is an interesting one.
(40:07):
I decided to do this interview with a couple of
people actually because a friend of mine in her early
thirties was experienced in bad vertigo and she didn't know
how to fix it. I don't know where to go.
So essentially, it's when the room is spinning around you
and it can cause such bad nausea and ongoing issues,
and a lot of people I've discovered don't know that
(40:28):
it can actually be fixed. And in most cases, this
is the biggest thing I learned from interviewing the experts.
They can fix ninety percent of cases in three sessions.
Speaker 6 (40:37):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (40:37):
So if you or someone you know has been experiencing vertigo,
and it happens to a lot of us, don't sit
there and don't go and see someone. We've got a
new Zealand Dizziness and balance center, and this is the
type of info they can give you vertigo.
Speaker 10 (40:52):
The room will spin around you fast, you might be
on your force on the ground, how to maintain upright
position and you'll go first as if you drink too
much put your head back in the pedal, well the
setting starts going.
Speaker 6 (41:05):
That's the vertical feeling.
Speaker 2 (41:07):
It's really common and it gets more common as we
get older, and it occurs in about forty percent of
people over the age of sixty five per Sense.
Speaker 1 (41:16):
And then it also occurs and a lot of people
under that too. Like I said my friend in the
early thirties, kids can get vertigo as well.
Speaker 3 (41:22):
Talk I don't want to give away to the podcast,
but what kind of treatment is it? Is it not medical?
Like is it?
Speaker 7 (41:27):
So?
Speaker 1 (41:28):
This is why so many people don't get treated. It
is almost a three pronged approach. So there's a whole
lot of different experts, these neurological experts, these physiotherapists, So
they have all these different experts at this dizziness and
Balance center, and then when you come in, they diagnose
you and it depends on what type you have, and
it's all depends on the inner ear and whether it's
(41:51):
a balance issue, whether it's a dizziness. There's all these
multiple ways that you could be diagnosed and treated, and
that's why it all has to be under one roof,
otherwise you'd be trapsing around for four different specialists.
Speaker 6 (42:03):
Yeah, so you need to download.
Speaker 4 (42:04):

Speaker 1 (00:11):
Today on the show, we talked about the largely unknown
condition of vertigo and how many Kiwis are suffering with
it at this moment.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
And after a month in Italy, what were the five
best foods of choice after eating pretty much everything.
Speaker 4 (00:24):
And grand parental pay We break that down as well,
and also why a priest is suing a dating app
for outing him have a note on his job back
on Kiwi Soil are rereadible. Month long holiday through Europe
a family trip of a lifetime.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Yeah, you can't just play it, tell you music. You
get to play French music, Turkish.
Speaker 5 (00:48):
We've heard this music every day that you've been away.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
It was it was magnificent. I mean, I don't even
know how to sum up this trip. I mean I think, well,
we'll go from the very beginning then, do you know.
I think one of the greatest moments of my life
life was turning up on a classic Mahogany river limousine
in Venice. You know those wooden boats that you see
George Cloney. Arriving. Yeah, arriving in Venice is one of
the greatest things you'll ever do, and it is the
(01:12):
most rock star moment you'll you'll ever ever experience. So
you turn up at the Venice airport and it just
looks like every other airport, but instead of walking up
the back and getting in a car, it's on a
marina and you get in and there's these beautiful Mahogany
limousines and you get in the back and it's a
va and you just power your way through the canals
of Venice. You turn up, you're looking around and it's
just monumental.
Speaker 6 (01:33):
Is it crazy busy?
Speaker 4 (01:34):
Because's what they're saying about this at the moment they
put these tourist tax on because there's too many people.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Yeah, we didn't feel like it was too busy. I
mean we did one day through the very heart of
Venice and it's crazy, right, But.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
At least we'd warned you about people grabbing your bags
and all of that.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
And that is a misternoma, Like there at no point
did anyone try and steal my wallet.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
And I had your suitcases, you know how they try
and carry them over the bridge today happen.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Yeah, a little bit. Yeah, Like it's a bit. We
had to carry our bags a long way to get
into the center of it.
Speaker 5 (02:03):
It's really not good for people that are disabled, is it.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
No, And my dad is in some respects as a
seventy eight year old man, you know, Like, it wasn't
easy for him carrying his suitcase over the top of bridges,
and we had prams and everything. Look, it's not an
easy place to get around with an old guy and
two young kids.
Speaker 5 (02:19):
How did the double pram go?
Speaker 3 (02:21):
It was a disaster, but it was also kind of
our savior as well, because we had these massive days
with little kids and you needed beds. Yeah, and you
needed beds. You could just push them around, but pushing
them through Pompeii was pretty much the cobblestone roads. What
were they thinking back in Pompeii? Workout for you though, Yeah, yeah,
although I've come back a little bit more a ton
than a light because all I've done is eat and drink.
Speaker 5 (02:42):
I can't wait to hear about the exercise regime today.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
No, I can summon up right now. I did three workouts,
but this is not about the workouts. This is about
how great it was Tuscany was an absolute highlight. Seven
days in Tuscany with a Paul and just going to
beautiful castles like San Jiminyaro where they have the best
ice cream or gelat in the world. My wife ordered
me cherry.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
I don't know what she was thinking that now, is
there a place of this This incredible trip you've just done,
is a place you would rush back to?
Speaker 6 (03:09):
First?
Speaker 3 (03:09):
South of France really nice? Is it is? It's like
it's lee bit rich and.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
That's why the rock stars all go to the do
you hear them go?
Speaker 6 (03:18):
A little baby? Players want to play on the South
of front.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
So when you turn up there and they go, that's
Bono's house there, and they going relistic, there's George Clooney's place,
and where's my place?
Speaker 5 (03:26):
You know it's in the back of the van.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
But anyway, I'm home, and I am quite glad to
be home. Like, traveling with young kids and old people
is hard, and it's really a month. That's about all
they had in me.
Speaker 5 (03:42):
Well, you always like coming home, that's the thing about travel, right, Yeah,
And I'm always an end.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
I joked about the weather before, but you actually doing
it's sick of thirty eight forty degree weather like it's
it's like a it's like living under a cloud the
whole time, even though there was no cloud and it
was so hot, and you come back in all of
a sudden that New Zealand's air is fresh and beautiful.
Speaker 6 (04:00):
For what you're in. Luck, isn't We went for a
cult snap this week.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Yeah, you'll give him a few days and he'll be
watching you.
Speaker 6 (04:07):
As back there. So today's the twenty ninth of July.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
Big day today in New Zealand because boot camps start today.
This is where the young offenders, you know, those military
style boot camps the government have been talking about.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
You're away by the way, Jason ran a red light
and stole gas from a picture station.
Speaker 6 (04:28):
But that's a story for later. Did you run a
red light?
Speaker 7 (04:29):
Man?
Speaker 6 (04:30):
No, No, it's a long story. I didn't. I've been
accused of it.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Off to the boot camp. That's a bit of running.
Speaker 6 (04:37):
So this is the thing.
Speaker 4 (04:37):
So ten young offenders have been selected to be part
of the government's boot camp trial, which starts today.
Speaker 6 (04:41):
The trial lasts for a year and this is the criteria.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
I don't know the criteria to be involved in this,
but to be selected you already have to be in
one of those youth facilities.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Because remember Jason was the ferrari around labeling them serious
young offenders.
Speaker 6 (04:54):
Yeah, which was just what they are.
Speaker 5 (04:55):
Which I didn't understand because I'm like, that's literally.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
What they are, and they know they are, and we
know they are, because apparently it was going to make
it worse for them.
Speaker 6 (05:03):
They know that they are.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
Here's how you get selected. You have to have been
convicted of two crimes. It would have had a centers
of at least ten years in the last couple of years.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
It's not broad enough ten year sentence.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
Yeah, so you have to at least two of those
to be on this list to be part of this trial.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
So so, quite honestly, we are dealing with serious criminals,
real big y.
Speaker 5 (05:22):
They happen to be young.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
So these are people age between fourteen and seventeen. That's
what I'm talking about. And the New Zealand Defense Force
is involved with us, and somebody like, oh, it's gonna
be too hard on them, the Defense Force military style
boot camp.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
No, I don't reckon just the criminals. I reckon the
whole generation of youngsters. That'll teach them a lesson. Oh, absolutely,
give them, give them a year of it and make them,
make them run and train and learn some discipline, pull
their socks up a little bit.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Actually had experience with the boot camp, because I genuinely have.
I went to Burnham Army Camp for about ten days
as an introduction to the sports scholarship I got at
Lincoln University. So for ten days I lived in the
Army bear and did Burnham style and.
Speaker 5 (06:02):
I loved it.
Speaker 6 (06:03):
Did you feel?
Speaker 5 (06:04):
Yes, they would yell at us sometimes, but I bloody
loved it. I'm not really fit. The food was great.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
Learned to march I did. She's a wonderful march.
Speaker 5 (06:14):
We did.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
We had to march, We had to do beat tests,
We had to go through the mud, caring barrels and people.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Fowing guns over your head. Where were you crawled through?
Speaker 1 (06:25):
There was no gun fire, although God that would have
been exciting.
Speaker 5 (06:29):
But what I'm saying is at the end of.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
It, I left a wreck, exhausted, but my soul was full.
Is that I And I know I'm not the person
that's going to get put there now because they have
a raft of serious issues.
Speaker 5 (06:42):
But and I was a.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
He's looking for a spot.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
I have a few ten years, so you'll be fascinating.
Speaker 6 (06:53):
So that book came.
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Trial starts today and it'll be fascinating to see what
happens from here. I reckon it's going to work.
Speaker 5 (06:58):
Just what they need to do.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
They need to these boot camp facilities need to let
the cameras in film the whole thing so people can
make up their own minds as to whether it's okay
or not. Yes, that history thinks it's going to be,
you know, bashing them.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
And make sure.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
I suspect there'll be stories of young lies being turned
around by these things.
Speaker 6 (07:18):
That's my hope. Yeah, the trial starts today.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
We've just had a result in the men's freestyle four
hundred meter.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
Swim and individual medley. It was yeah, four hundred individual medley.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
So the Frenchman, the hot favorite, has just one by landslide.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Eight body lengths. Think about that.
Speaker 6 (07:34):
This is a world record.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
No, he was just he was an Olympic record, not
a world record. Oh wow, but boy did he swim well.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
And Lewis Claibert are key, we hope finished in sixth.
Unfortunately for him, a couple of seconds slower than his
personal best, so he would have known he needed to
swim as peb to be in the medal contention, so
he'll be a bit bummed. But he has got other
races to come. So and we've got another We've got
at seven thirty seven, to be precise, sorry, one hundred
fly six forty five, which is really soon five minutes, Hazel.
(08:03):
And then we've got one hundred backstroke with Caine follows
at seven thirty seven, and then Erica feirwa Her, who
was pipped for the bronze, has got her two hundred
freestyle semi final.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Don't almost have beautiful bodies?
Speaker 6 (08:15):
Oh this stuff? I was looking at that they but hey.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
Leon Marsham is the is the one to remember because
he's gonna he's looking like the new Michael Phelps.
Speaker 6 (08:26):
In front of his home crowd to go him.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Hey, So to Monday morning, and every Monday, what we
do is we flick through the weekend stories. We find
the stories that says and I found one by praying
for a lawsuit. So there's a priest who was suing a.
Speaker 6 (08:41):
Dating app for outing him.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
So when Jeffrey Burrell began using Grinder, which is like
a homosexual men dating site, apparently he started back in
twenty seventeen, no indication that anyone outside the dating app
would ever find out his details.
Speaker 6 (08:55):
So he signs up.
Speaker 5 (08:56):
I can do this like Ashley Madison. They don't want
you know, when they go to have.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
A Yeah, no one will find out where is this
priest from what country?
Speaker 4 (09:03):
While she's a Catholic priest though, and so in twenty twenty.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
One, pharmacy is quite high on the priest.
Speaker 6 (09:10):
That's it.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Yeah, So twenty twenty one, somehow the information that he
is on there has been leaked out. Now so because
what happened apparently is the dating app, and we know
it happened, but we don't we well, yeah, well, so
apparently the data got sold. You know how let you
sign the sumations and third parties and by the data.
It's exactly what grinder did. So in twenty twenty one
it came out that this guy is there. Now he
(09:31):
had to quit because he was the top administrator of
you at the US US Conference of Catholic Bishops. So
in this job, yes, he had to think of our celebracy. Also,
Catholic teaching opposes sexual activity outside of heterosexual marriage, so
Jeffrey is breaking all kinds of.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
Rules so he's not just using the app though you
know it.
Speaker 6 (09:49):
Was fully engaged in it. Apparently, apparently, how.
Speaker 5 (09:52):
Else do you use it without being fully engaged?
Speaker 6 (09:54):
That's right.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
I thought there was only one way it was.
Speaker 6 (09:57):
To be used.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
You'd be using it for socializing other than the other s.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Word grinder is absolutely not for socialized Jump to conclusions
if you want to do.
Speaker 6 (10:08):
That's the way.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Jeffrey has quit his job and now he's trying to
soothe them, and other people.
Speaker 6 (10:12):
Are going well.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
To be fair terms and conditions. I'm guessing privacy is
quite high on the list, so we might have a point.
Speaker 6 (10:21):
He made it, but it doesn't read them. He didn't.
I'd fall on my sword. I episode to speak.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
He's fallen on many stores.
Speaker 6 (10:27):
Okay, okay.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
Back from a sojourn around Europe, including through France.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Yeah, I don't want to talk about Venice at this point,
because I made a purchase in Venice. It was a
clock and a place called Murano, which is famous internationally
for its glass making, its glass blow, and we went
and saw a demonstration of them blowing beautiful glass, and
there was a man there that is, you know, twenty
generations of glassblower and made stuff for the Pope.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Did you what did you buy?
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Because I've got a few thoughts on what if you
got to choose a glass object, what you might ask
for based on previous trips around New Zealand glass blowing.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Well, I blew a penis once when I was on.
Speaker 5 (11:08):
Again Tell People what You're Really Breakfast.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Television, and I got a fit of trouble for it,
but it was very funny.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
At that time. We were also in Wan and you
wanted them to make you.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Again, and they refused, and you kept asking to pay
them cash and kept up in the off and they're like, no,
we're not going.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
To do that.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
I bought a clock in Morano, and and when I
bought it, I talked from down. Boy. I did a
great job of negotiating the price. I got it down
to turn ninety euros. It is a multi colored clock.
Speaker 5 (11:39):
Okay, everyone thinks they got a deal of rano.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
And then I want and I walked out of Morano
and I walked down just to a normal shop on
the side of the road, and that same clock was
one hundred euros.
Speaker 5 (11:49):
Chief, And I bet she took you out to a
secret room out the back too.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Let's have a conversation in the secret room out back.
So anyway, they got more complicated in that because when
I purchased the clock, I bought it under the proviso
that they would send it back to Auckland's safe and sound.
But I apparently after I paid for it, they said
you have to spend a thousand euros in order to
get that free shipping.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
Because it's made of glass, right, curious.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Yeah, So what they did is they packed it up
and then it had twenty six more days of travels
in my bag and I have it right here in
the studio but unopened, and I don't know if it's
made it or not. And there's there were some punches
all over.
Speaker 5 (12:29):
The cobbles you've had your suitcases, And.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
About how intricate this thing is, how fragile this is basically.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
I'll show you in just a second, but it's a
sun and every little soul of flare on the sun
all the way around the outside is a very fragile
piece of glass with a pendulum that swings off the bottom.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Took us through why you chose a flaming sun clock.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Because I couldn't afford the glasses that I wanted they
were a thousand euros.
Speaker 6 (12:54):
Would free shipping?
Speaker 3 (12:55):
I would have, but I wanted the picture with the
beautiful glasses, you know, engine drinking gin from a glass
from Marana for the rest of your day.
Speaker 5 (13:03):
But now you can look every time you look at
the time, assuming it's not broken.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
I'm going to open it right now.
Speaker 6 (13:08):
It's broken a lot.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
I reckon, I reckon, it's okay. I reckon, it's glad.
Speaker 6 (13:12):
I think they know how to pack things. Yeah, it's
not broken.
Speaker 5 (13:16):
No, please, no, look at that is intact.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
It's complete. But where's the pendulum that swings off the
broke off off?
Speaker 5 (13:25):
It's not going to work. It's now a platter.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Is complete, but swings at the bottom.
Speaker 6 (13:41):
It's going to be good news, and it's there.
Speaker 5 (13:44):
I think that's another thousand.
Speaker 6 (13:45):
Yet it separately?
Speaker 5 (13:50):
Is that broken?
Speaker 6 (13:51):
So it's removable pendulum?
Speaker 5 (13:53):
Oh we're good everyone. I reckon. That will look really
nice in the kid's room.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Do you not like it?
Speaker 7 (13:59):
No?
Speaker 5 (13:59):
I think it's really pretty.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Would you not put it in a lounge?
Speaker 8 (14:06):
Jason?
Speaker 5 (14:07):
Did you put it in your lounge?
Speaker 6 (14:08):
My lounge?
Speaker 5 (14:10):
Be honest.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
You've got you've got like jet planes, You've got big
up jet planes.
Speaker 6 (14:16):
Up on your walls right next to it.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
It's really pretty any when you look at that clock,
you'll think of your trip, which is awesome.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
Beautiful, and losing one hundred hundred euro to the wrong place.
Speaker 6 (14:27):
But you can't put a price on that. Is that happiness?
That's happiness.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Coasts Feel Good Breakfast catch Up podcast with Tony Street,
Jason Reeves and Sam Wallace.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
We need to talk about parental leave, but a different
kind grand parental leave. So you know how you go
on leave, maternity leave or the parental lever if you're
the dad and you get paid by the government to
have that time.
Speaker 5 (14:59):
I don't know how much. Which is it now? For men?
Is it ten days paternity leave? It's something like that,
and for women it's a lot more.
Speaker 6 (15:08):
Right, you get several months opportunity.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Yeah, what if you could take that as a grandparent right,
So essentially, like take me, for example, I when I
was working on Breakfast TV, I was just about to
start a job when I had my first child, and
I went back after about fourteen weeks.
Speaker 6 (15:26):
It's twenty six weeks. It's up to twenty six weeks apparently.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
Sorry, So essentially instead of me being paid after the
fourteen weeks for the parental leave because I was going.
Speaker 5 (15:33):
Back to work.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
You could give that to a grandparent that would step
in and cover those hours when you're at work.
Speaker 5 (15:38):
What do we think of it?
Speaker 3 (15:39):
So you loved it, you have to transfer it today
you can't use it for yourself and for your grandparents.
Speaker 5 (15:44):
I think you have to transfer it.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
But this is what Sweden is doing and it has
been received with open arms, and it's now started the
debate here. Would you want to be paid to look
after your grandchildren as a grandparent? And I've actually had
this discussion with my mum before because when we were
the kid start at school. When I went back to work,
lots of people around me. You know, a grandparent will
have set days that they look after the kids, will
(16:06):
pick them up from school. It might be like a
Monday and a Thursday. And she said to me, I
wouldn't want to have regular days that I looked after
the kids because I would not want it to feel
like a job. I want to be the grandparent that
when I see them, I'm sure I'll look after them heaps,
and she does, but I don't want it to be
a regular thing because I don't want it to feel
like it's a job.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
I get that it likes to make a bit of
money while you do it, though, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
You know, she was really into it for that reason.
I don't think everyone will have that same opinion.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
I think, you know, if a family is really stretched
and they're having to really rely on the grandparents and
it's taking from their lives, and.
Speaker 5 (16:41):
Absolutely I'd rather pay them than.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
It means that also that the grandparents can afford to
do things with the kids, you know, to take them
for a morning or do it with something like that.
Speaker 5 (16:54):
So I'll tell you that ins it out.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
So Swedish couples can transfer forty five days of the
combined and four hundred and eighty days of leave to
their child's grandparents, while a single father or mother can
transfer ninety days of it.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
It's the ambulance at the bottom of the cliff, though,
wasn't it. You know, like the fact that we're having
to pay grandparents to look after because that we live
in a society where the bulk of the world has
to have two parents working to pay the bills. But
doesn't that broken?
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I do, Yeah, I agree with you, but I do
feel like when you first, particularly when you have your
first child. You know you're a nervous new parent, and
I remember thinking, my mom's the only person and my
mother in law are the only two people that I'd
feel comfortable at this vulnerable young stage leaving my child with.
So I want to trust if that bridges the gap
till your child gets a little bit older where you
(17:40):
feel comfortable.
Speaker 5 (17:42):
I think it's a good thing.
Speaker 6 (17:44):
I think, do it, But then the grandparents are like,
don't pay me.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
That's what I want to do it with my heart,
with my love, so not the government is who want
to do well here? So honestly, would you be comfortable
paying grandparents? And if you are a grandparents, would you
be comfortable taking some money if you look after the grandkids?
Let us know, love to hear your thoughts. I wait
for a double four coast Star phone number or flick
as a text and seeing the text to two six
nine nine. There's a lot that's coming over in Sweden
at the moment where they can pay the grandparents looking
(18:08):
after the kids.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Yeah, so you it's essentially transferring part of your pay
per rental leave. So it's the government's subsidy and we
have twenty six weeks in New Zealand. So if you
could give if you wanted to go back to work
and give your parents or your in laws forty five
days of that to cover that sort of transition, you
could if you're in Sweden.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
And it enables you to get back to your job quicker,
doesn't it, And it means that your baby's in the
best hands it could possibly be.
Speaker 6 (18:34):
Mark, What are your thoughts on this?
Speaker 7 (18:36):
Yeah, I'm not sure. I think it's opening a can
of worms because it will start mutting the waters when
you find if you haven't got grandparents, can any transfer
to your brother or sister in law or your long
distant cousin or thing. You know, it's the guy down
the road. And I'm not sure. My wife and I
we were always the parents first. Everything else came second.
Speaker 5 (18:57):
Yeah, that's you're so right.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
That could be really niggly because then people will say, well,
we don't have grandparents, so we want to use the
neighbors Auntie Sue who has been like a grandparent.
Speaker 5 (19:08):
And yeah, it does get quiet.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
It's not just grandparents have passed away. What about immigrants
that have become citizens that don't have family here? You know,
there's a whole lot.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
And I think what Mark was kind of getting at too.
We don't want reasons to give people reasons to race
back to work, and I almost feel like this is
giving you another reason to race back to work.
Speaker 6 (19:26):
Yeah, So what are your thoughts on this?
Speaker 9 (19:29):
I think, well, I went back to work when I
was my first little boy was six weeks old, and
both I was really lucky because I had a mother
in law and a mother who I guess you called
it like job shared and looked after him. But that
(19:50):
was my children, and they asked me to.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
Look after as their child.
Speaker 9 (19:57):
I couldn't take money.
Speaker 4 (19:59):
A lot of grandparents and they are.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
But the problem here is someone's got to take that
government subsidy, don't they. So where's that money going? Well,
you're saying essentially you'd gift it back to them, is
that what you're saying?
Speaker 9 (20:12):
I mean the generation today, you know, both parents are working,
they're straggling. You know, it's hard out there, and I
think I just couldn't. I couldn't. I mean, I'm I'm
probably coming up to retirement age now myself, and I
have the privilege of of not working. So my my
(20:34):
scenario is slightly different to perhaps a person that's still employee.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
That's what makes it a great debate because there's so
many different scenarios and situations within families. It sees an
interesting precedent, though, doesn't it Like you pay your grandparents
for the first few weeks of their lives to help out,
and then that money drives up the subsidy and then
they're like, well, I'm still looking after.
Speaker 10 (20:55):
Government.
Speaker 11 (20:58):
Yeah, hi there, how's it going to go?
Speaker 6 (20:59):
Good things? What do you reckon?
Speaker 5 (21:00):
Yeah?
Speaker 11 (21:01):
I reckon. I'm the whole babysitting for the social hours
is for free as free bees, as grandparents. And then
but if you're working, if you're at work and got
the kids, then a bit of money makes the will
go around.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Yeah, it does. It helps, isn't it.
Speaker 5 (21:16):
Yeah, it's an interesting debate, isn't it. It really is?
Speaker 1 (21:19):
And thank you for your text. We're getting them in
thick and fast once. Just come through high guys. The realities.
Thousands of grandparents are raising their grandchildren's full time. My
husband and I have raised three grandchildren for the past
sixteen years. So yes, part time grandparents should grandparenting should
also be allowed, and.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
Those are the ideal situations where this would work at
its best.
Speaker 4 (21:38):
You can text us any time about anything. It's seen
that text to two sixty nine nine. Well we got
really early this morning. Welcome back, Sam. Yeah, the team
is back together. It's been so long.
Speaker 5 (21:47):
I feel like we haven't seen you for half a year.
Speaker 7 (21:49):
You know.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
I've just done the most remarkable trip, and I am
so happy to be home. Not because I don't want
to be on holiday, but we really are fortunate to
work in a wonderful team, aren't we.
Speaker 6 (21:56):
Yeah? I reckon you guys.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
I wish you guys were on the trip. I would
have had more babysitters.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
We love you being back. As long as you don't
talk about having put on weight on holiday.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
I want to talk about things worse than that right now, because.
Speaker 5 (22:06):
It's something worse.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
I am forty three years old, and just a day
or so ago, on the way home, I did something
on a plane that I have never done in my
forty three year old history.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
Do we really want it? Is this appropriate? No?
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Not really, but I wanted to talk about it because
I thought I thought that, and I came in and
I asked Jace this morning, he has never done it.
Speaker 5 (22:25):
Where is your mind gone.
Speaker 7 (22:26):
All right.
Speaker 4 (22:27):
Well, when he first starts me, have you done this?
There's something I did on a plane I've never done before.
Speaker 6 (22:30):
Have you done it? I was like, he's going to
talk about a certain club you can join.
Speaker 5 (22:33):
That's what I thought it good for.
Speaker 6 (22:36):
That, and you haven't done it.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Jason hasn't done it.
Speaker 6 (22:41):
It's not about me.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
Ladies and gentlemen. I did a plane pooll coming back
from Dubai. I did a plane poop.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
I thought you would have got a bit cultured being
in your firm, but you come back as crass.
Speaker 3 (22:52):
As I thought that.
Speaker 5 (22:53):
I reckon.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
There's a lot of people that will relate to this
and avoided that their entire lives and.
Speaker 5 (22:59):
The phone for this Texas.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
A lot of people that you haven't done it.
Speaker 6 (23:05):
Congratulations, you haven't done it.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
You haven't done it.
Speaker 5 (23:10):
You analyze totally.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
Have you done it?
Speaker 5 (23:12):
What is wrong with you?
Speaker 3 (23:13):
Why are we talking to you one moment of honesty?
Have you ever done a playing You've just.
Speaker 5 (23:19):
Been Europe for a month. I'm not coming back and
talking about.
Speaker 6 (23:24):
This is never going to make it.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
This is an amazing though I think of it. She's
a piece of society that there's going to relate to
a lot of people to six nine nine if.
Speaker 6 (23:34):
You're relating to no one right three years old.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
And I have finally, I have, I have broken the
curse Olympics.
Speaker 5 (23:41):
The good, the bad, and the ugly. We need to
talk about it.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
And I've been tasked with having three things every morning
and I'm.
Speaker 5 (23:48):
Excited to do so. And it's actually hard. Well, they weren't.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
As much as I'm proud of our athletes, there are
no medals to talk about you right, for.
Speaker 5 (23:55):
The good, it's pretty quick.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
So for the good today, as much as I'm I
think our best, our best was Eric a fair weather,
but I'm not going to talk about that. The good
for me, the highlight over the last sort of three
or four days was actually the French rugby sevens team.
They were magnificent. You have to go and see. We'll
put it up on one of our social platforms and
see the French rugby team dancing in perfect choreography to
(24:23):
Will Smith's Miami.
Speaker 5 (24:25):
Now.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
Apparently they did this as a team camaraderie and the
lead up to these games. It's really worked for them.
And I have never seen athletes dance so well. They
were epic and It was also a Will Smith song
from the early nineties and it just spoke to myself.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
Absolutely, and I think it's part of wonderful team building.
Speaker 11 (24:44):
You know.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
It shows a team that is hugely united. And do
you know who does that really well, our all black
coach Scott Robinson.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Yes, you actually this might have sparked something in him.
You might try and passes moves on to the rest
of the team. I look forward to that. The Baars
and you might have seen this the poor someone boxing.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Coach age sixty heart attack in the village did like
so heartbreaking only sixty as well, and everyone's coming out
and saying how wonderful he was and he was doing
what he loved.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
But that has gone way too soon. So that was
devastating to hear. And the ugly was and you might
have seen this in the opening ceremony, but when they
introduced the South Korea country, they said North Korea literally
their eternal enemy.
Speaker 5 (25:32):
They were. It's just like the other day when Bill
who was it Biden introduced Zelensky as putin, how can
you make that mistake?
Speaker 3 (25:43):
Those are the two biggest mistakes you can literally voice.
Speaker 6 (25:46):
We've been called Australia before we can deal with that.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
It's nothing like this, that's not I felt really sorry
for them, and they've they've put out their heart felt apology,
but that is total foot in the mouth.
Speaker 6 (25:57):
That funny though, a little bit speaking of foot in
the mouth is going to happen to one of us
chas on Coast. Okay, we roll the dice. It chanced
to take us on and our cash, and.
Speaker 5 (26:08):
Do you need us to keep you up to date
with what happened while you're are? We did.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
We didn't lose until someone accidentally did.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
What did you get it up to?
Speaker 5 (26:17):
Well, okay, I'm just going to one, two hundred of
then I'm going to throw the question at you. Sure,
how many zeros in a million?
Speaker 3 (26:23):
Six?
Speaker 5 (26:25):
Well?
Speaker 6 (26:25):
Plays?
Speaker 5 (26:27):
Poor old j said seven?
Speaker 1 (26:29):
And then we figure Then we interviewed ed Burn and
he asked Burn.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
Burn said sex and Jason said no, it's seven. And
I forgot that it was wrong. It was so funny.
Speaker 6 (26:39):
That's what they call an implosion.
Speaker 4 (26:41):
Yeah, anyway, cool, now if you want to play eight
hundred double O four.
Speaker 5 (26:45):

been in shape, you've been working out, you've been lecturing
us on our diets and our workout regimes.
Speaker 3 (31:38):
It's become a religion for me, and the results speak
for themselves. Well, it's not about the results. It's about
the head space, isn't it. And it's got me into
a wonderful head space. But I tell you what, I
slipped over there. It's very hard to stay in a
calorie deficit in Italy.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
I love how you say it's not about the results,
and then you like, here, come look at my graph.
Speaker 6 (31:56):
Yeah, okay, should labs.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
It's mostly about result when I have let slip and
on a whole new level. I I got over there
with the idea that if I'm gonna eat badly, I
don't eat less of it. That was not what happened.
I got over there and I ate everything in front
of me that was through Italy, and that was through
the cruise boat as well.
Speaker 5 (32:15):
Tell us what you ate, give us some done, some joy.
Everything we hear about brocca and chicken.
Speaker 3 (32:22):
If I don't see a bowl of pasta or pizza
for another three years, I really don't care like that.
Do you know what I think the Italian so I
think they westernize everything, So you know, you kind of
don't want that, do you You want that authentic thing,
But they just bring out plates and plates of pasta
and spaghetti the whole time, and I ate them.
Speaker 5 (32:37):
I think that's what they do there.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
Like my experience when I was at Italy is they
do the pizzas and they put the topping on, and
I remember feeling a bit affronted because the topic would
just be in like one third of the pizza it
on and I was like, what about the other bits?
Speaker 5 (32:50):
Liked? I mean delicious?
Speaker 3 (32:53):
Still, yeah, it was delicious. They don't need a lot
of vegetables though, and the sauce doesn't count a you know,
I think my fiber accounts really low as well. Anyway,
I have the countown of the top five foods. While
in this leaf for them up. So number five on
the list was the lemon sawbet, often served in a
lemon Absolutely insane, especially considering they're in a heat wave
over there. It was delicious. Number four on the list.
(33:14):
I went to a town called sand jimminy Elni, which
is in Florence, and they have an ice cream store
there that repeatedly wins the best ice cream in the world,
and I had, well, my wife ordered me the cherry
and I had a few nillles of that, and then
I had the salted caramel. The salted caramel ice cream
from San Jimminiano, the best ice cream in the world,
was literally the best ice cream in the.
Speaker 5 (33:35):
World because it was gelato. You had right.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
So the difference between ice cream and gelato. Gelato contains
less milk fat than ice cream is churned at a
low slower rate, as typically served at a warmer temperature,
introducing less air to the dessert and yielding a softer
dens denser texture.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
Good knowledge. Number three on the list was Terramiso. We
went to a medieval festival in a castle and then
on our way down we left and we found a
family restaurant. There were no tourists there and the terramasoux
there was mind blowing like and it was served in
a giant bowl like it was. It was as big
as the clock I bought.
Speaker 6 (34:12):
Oh wow.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
Remember we did msou here when we did that from
Art de la Pasta, when we learned how to make it,
that terramassoux was great.
Speaker 5 (34:21):
So if you even in m were a road Art
dela Pasta, that's very good.
Speaker 3 (34:26):
We did a cooking class in Tuscany as well. A
lady came around and we did what are the little
parcels of pasta called. We did that with a spinach
and ricotta. That was that's just amazing.
Speaker 5 (34:39):
I saw you actually cooking with your shoes off.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
Well see that was unfair.
Speaker 5 (34:43):
It looks the thing was accosted for that.
Speaker 3 (34:48):
Well a little bit, yeah, but the cooking just some
people shot off, mate, your hero. But the thing is
we did the cooking class right next to the pool,
so in between courses and stuff, you're in a kitchen.
Of course, it wasn't the best thing from the cooking class.
The number two on my list was the veal wraps.
They do a veal dish over there where they wrap
sundried tomato, mozzarella and and sage, fresh sage and a
(35:12):
little parcel we cook those. That was amazing. Number one
of us though, it was a ham and cheese sandwich.
So this was in Venus. Well, it was fresh, the
freshest bridge you've ever tasted. And what they do is
they take out the cheese and the ham, and they
do cheese and ham like no one else does in
the world. They take it out, then they they cook
(35:32):
the bread, and then they put the fresh ingredients back
into the sandwich. No kind of not, kind of the
opposite of melting. I think we're over melting our cheese.
Speaker 6 (35:41):
It's my point.
Speaker 3 (35:42):
So the ingredients and I'll tell you what, it was
the most delicious thing I had. And the entire time
I was over there, ham and cheese.
Speaker 1 (35:50):
Sandwich and look saying, we know that you haven't blown
out with your diet because I get the forty degree
heat and the nose shirt by the pool, But why
have you not got your shoot on now?
Speaker 5 (35:58):
I mean it's like it's like twelve Oh.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
You go, true, that's not true.
Speaker 6 (36:01):
What the texts and wonderful text from the brilliant Adam.
I hate everything my God said.
Speaker 4 (36:05):
It sounds like you may have here I said, enjoyed
yourself like the rest of us.
Speaker 3 (36:09):
The buffeto on a cruise ship. If you've never been
cruising before, there is just food. You can order as
much as you want, whenever you want it.
Speaker 5 (36:15):
It is free ice creams.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Don't worry Adam, because I think he did enjoy himself.
But he's already got his gym gear and he's about
to go back into misery town.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
The calorie deficit is real.
Speaker 6 (36:27):
Sorry, welcome to have you back, mate, welcome home.
Speaker 3 (36:28):
It's so good to be back.
Speaker 4 (36:30):
The big opening ceremony was on Saturday morning, and people
were talking about it for like, right across the weekend.
Speaker 6 (36:34):
Because it was phenomenal.
Speaker 4 (36:35):
Three hundred thousand people packed the streets around Paris to
watch that.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
Yeah and so different if you didn't get the highlights. Essentially,
teams came out in mini boats, some large boats as
they went down the river saying, my girls loved seeing
Lady Gaga come out with all the pink feathers, and
then Celine Diong belting out of tune in front of
the Eiffel Tower. I mean, that's got to be one
of the most iconic sights you'll ever see.
Speaker 4 (37:00):
I honestly thought they had diamonds on the piano and
then I realized it was the rain.
Speaker 6 (37:03):
But it looked spectacular. I loved it.
Speaker 5 (37:05):
And what about the nod to the runway.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
My personal favorite thing was they did a real nod
to their theatrical side, so they had lamers that are
but when they started doing that, I was like, oh
my goodness.
Speaker 4 (37:19):
Even right at the start time, you must have loved
this as well. You know when those explosions went off
on that bridge, but it was like the colors of
the flag went up and die.
Speaker 6 (37:26):
Really really, that was the start of it.
Speaker 1 (37:28):
I think it's actually changed the opening ceremony because no
one has thought ever to not have it based in
the stadium.
Speaker 5 (37:35):
So I feel like in La watched this space, so
we're going to see.
Speaker 1 (37:38):
Them down Hollywood Boulevard or something like that.
Speaker 3 (37:41):
They were punished for them for their decision though, because
it rained, didn't it, And I think that dampened what
it looked like visually. I mean, news dot Com described
it as a two doll Coles croissant. That's how underwhelming
the opening ceremony was. Analogy.
Speaker 1 (37:54):
I kind of know what Sam means because when they
all came out in boats. It did kind of slow
the pace down. You know, usually when they're walking in
they kind of get a bit of a pace as
thus circling the track, So that side of it was
a bit tricky.
Speaker 5 (38:08):
I reckon they should do maybe a bit of both.
Next time, do Hollywood Boulevard then go to La Stadium.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
Yeah, that's the reason why our Kiwi athletes are suffering
that they've got motion sickness for bobbing around like corks.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
Still true, no middles yet, but still. What did you
think of the Slendy Old performance?
Speaker 6 (38:24):
Though?
Speaker 11 (38:25):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (38:25):
I thought she was magnificent.
Speaker 6 (38:27):
I loved it. I thought she was stunning.
Speaker 5 (38:29):
Well yeah, stiff person who that guy?
Speaker 6 (38:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (38:32):
Yeah, she did amazingly.
Speaker 4 (38:34):
Well how does Snoop dog become part of us? I mean,
it's good seeing me, but how is that?
Speaker 1 (38:40):
I have no idea, Although I did like seeing Serena
Williams she was there as well. A little nod to
Superstars of Tennis Raphael Nadal he got to be part
of it.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
I think it's clever Snoop Dogg. You know, if anyone
can keep a flame going, it's Snoop Dogg. He was
in charge of Key.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
Who's also is been spotted at the gymnastics watching some
on biles. So anyone who's also I saw Cindy Crawford
and her daughter Kay Gerber, the model. They were there
on the sidelines. Anyone who's anyone is at these games?
Speaker 5 (39:12):
Sam, you should have.
Speaker 6 (39:13):
Stayed in Europe.
Speaker 5 (39:14):
Yeah, and waved the flag for us.
Speaker 3 (39:17):
I couldn't afford it.
Speaker 4 (39:20):
They reckon, eleven million people will go to Paris the
next couple of weeks to watch the Olympics.
Speaker 6 (39:24):
Eleven million people.
Speaker 3 (39:26):
Do you know? When I was in the south of
France and Nice, the Tour de France actually finished the
day before we got there, and there they were pulling
down all the Tour de France banners and stuff, and
they had to pull it down because that's sorry. They
had to have it in Nice because obviously the city
was consumed by the Olympics, so Nice as opposed to
chance Alise.
Speaker 1 (39:46):
I actually heard that the tour was supposed to be
there an extra day, but they heard the wallaces were
coming and they were scared, You're going to put on
yourl like Crah. We need to talk about Vertigo now,
and that is the new episode of that We Need
to Talk podcast. That is dropping today, so you can
go and get it right now wherever you download podcasts.
iHeartRadio is a good idea. Now, Vertigo is an interesting one.
(40:07):
I decided to do this interview with a couple of
people actually because a friend of mine in her early
thirties was experienced in bad vertigo and she didn't know
how to fix it. I don't know where to go.
So essentially, it's when the room is spinning around you
and it can cause such bad nausea and ongoing issues,
and a lot of people I've discovered don't know that
(40:28):
it can actually be fixed. And in most cases, this
is the biggest thing I learned from interviewing the experts.
They can fix ninety percent of cases in three sessions.
Speaker 6 (40:37):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (40:37):
So if you or someone you know has been experiencing vertigo,
and it happens to a lot of us, don't sit
there and don't go and see someone. We've got a
new Zealand Dizziness and balance center, and this is the
type of info they can give you vertigo.
Speaker 10 (40:52):
The room will spin around you fast, you might be
on your force on the ground, how to maintain upright
position and you'll go first as if you drink too
much put your head back in the pedal, well the
setting starts going.
Speaker 6 (41:05):
That's the vertical feeling.
Speaker 2 (41:07):
It's really common and it gets more common as we
get older, and it occurs in about forty percent of
people over the age of sixty five per Sense.
Speaker 1 (41:16):
And then it also occurs and a lot of people
under that too. Like I said my friend in the
early thirties, kids can get vertigo as well.
Speaker 3 (41:22):
Talk I don't want to give away to the podcast,
but what kind of treatment is it? Is it not medical?
Like is it?
Speaker 7 (41:27):
So?
Speaker 1 (41:28):
This is why so many people don't get treated. It
is almost a three pronged approach. So there's a whole
lot of different experts, these neurological experts, these physiotherapists, So
they have all these different experts at this dizziness and
Balance center, and then when you come in, they diagnose
you and it depends on what type you have, and
it's all depends on the inner ear and whether it's
(41:51):
a balance issue, whether it's a dizziness. There's all these
multiple ways that you could be diagnosed and treated, and
that's why it all has to be under one roof,
otherwise you'd be trapsing around for four different specialists.
Speaker 6 (42:03):
Yeah, so you need to download.
Speaker 4 (42:04):
