Speaker 1 (00:00):
Coast Breakfast brought to you by Bargain Chemist their policy
New Zealand's cheapest chemist.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Tony Jason Sam's feel Good Breakfast Can't Shut podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
Today on the show, we talked about packing paralysis, have
you fallen found?
Speaker 3 (00:15):
And my update on my AirPods which are doubling? Is
my hearing aids? And where grunting has become a problem?
Speaker 4 (00:21):
Is it ever okay for a boss to contact staff
while they're on holiday. We'll tell your story that has
made the news and one guy's ticked off with his
own boss. Feeling real good about the America's Cup right now,
even if you're not too sure about what the otting
has been because it's been a lot of regret. There's
(00:42):
a lot of racing up to this point, right This.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Always happens with the America's Cup because the Louis Vouton
Challenger series goes first before the genuine America's Cup and
no one really knows when it starts, and then it
starts and you go, oh, we're underway. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
I think that what made this one's so confusing was
the fact that the New Zealand race before the Louis
Vuitton and like in a Challenger series to kind of test.
Speaker 5 (00:59):
Before they went to the lo We happened to all
of them, thought the Challenger racing to.
Speaker 6 (01:04):
New Zealand did when I was in San fran as well.
Speaker 4 (01:07):
Yeah, but then we did for picking up no points
just for you, just to test their boat against see whatever.
It was very sneaky technic, I thought. But it's working
out for them. So then, so if you haven't heard, so,
Ben Ainsley's Britannia has knocked out Jimmy Spittle's Team Priora.
So Jimmy Spittle's.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Retired now isn't that weird? And don't you think he's
just going to come back and do something else. He's
just going to stay still.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Doesn't and he's just retired from being on the boat
because that would make sense.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
Yeah. So anyway, so now it's just being Ainsley against
Team New Zealand. Now we were yesterday, I think it
was just still early yesterday morning. It was the first
couple of races. We're up to nil. That's great. Earlier
this morning we go out again, the wind's just good.
We smacked them and then the wind dies down. So
now we're threeing up.
Speaker 5 (01:50):
Yes, So one of the races, was didn't go here
today and we.
Speaker 6 (01:52):
Got a penalty in the start.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
They made a protest and then we got to have
a big lead and choose watch side of the course
we went on, which was awesome. You go that in
racing they have the protest and penalties.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
It's often one of the courtroom arked, our.
Speaker 5 (02:06):
Boat is so fast. I reckon after watching that. I
watched both the.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Races on the first two races, and we are quicker upwind,
and I reckon what we were doing as I reckon,
we're holding back.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
I reckon, yeah, we're still I don't want to be
like negative about this.
Speaker 6 (02:19):
Can we just remember how we.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Were up eight one and about so fast no one
can beat us, and then in the space of a
day Jimmy Spitdler and his crew managed to find speed
out of nowhere and then they won it. That's true,
So Lea's just not count our tickets.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
First to seven. That is that how we went.
Speaker 6 (02:38):
If we were up, we up seven to one and
then we lost.
Speaker 4 (02:42):
It was nine either way though, so we're three in
the love at this stage. But again, as Tony just said,
anything can happen from here, and we've seen it happen
before the flags get involved, the court room gets involved.
So watch the space. If it's not your family on
your screensaver, who is or what is on your phone?
Speaker 7 (02:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (02:58):
Have a look right now?
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Have you go, you guys, because we're in the very
family fixed stages of our lives, aren't we.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
I'm more than there. I am have relinquished mind to
my children. They just grab it. So on any given day,
I don't know where. Today my eldest child's won, so
she's there. But sometimes it's the youngest one. I don't
I actually I don't know. There's apparently there's a carousel
of them you can get to.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
At the moment, it's our eldest standing in front of
a boat called Max because it's his name.
Speaker 5 (03:25):
What he's doing.
Speaker 4 (03:25):
After every hour it's changed to different.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Your kids, is your wife and your carousel.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
It's a ridico not I've got I've gone with. I've
done exactly that. I've gone with diplomacy. I've got my
wife and I've got my all my kids in a shot,
which is not easy to do when you've got, you know,
a family of effectively five, and then you have to
get them all into that vertical landscape.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Yeah, I've got there from a wedding photos the one
we're we.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
But you know, life changes and you move on and
you priority shift a little bit as well. I was
at the airport and I looked over a guy's shoulder
and he had on his lineup was a whole it
has been a great fishing day and he had it
all his fish the court lined up and he had
that as a screen saver. And I get that because
that he's had a wonderful day.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
There and he's been.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
Out with his mates, he's caught some good first and
he's like, I want to remember that I have the
fisherman's screensaver.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
What would be the equivalent of fish for us? What
me lining up a whole lot of nipples? Like I'm
just trying to think maybe what hobby could I do
with is no human in it? That I want my screensaver?
I reckon there's a whole lot of wine somewhere. Their
husbands on their phone as the classic car or something
that wife somewhere.
Speaker 5 (04:33):
I think it is a guy think it is for me.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
I'd want to put on my like what a nipple
bab running shoes like I could imagine that the team,
the Nipple team, but that these humans in the photo.
Speaker 5 (04:44):
Yeah, maybe Nipple is just not that glamorous. Well was
more glamorous and fresh, though, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Did first?
Speaker 4 (04:52):
Well, let's put this out there. Okay, that's early on
a Monday, But honestly, if you've put something on your
screensaver that is non human, what is it?
Speaker 1 (04:58):
What if the human it's not part of your family?
Speaker 4 (05:01):
Like, who is it? What's the human?
Speaker 8 (05:03):
Hello?
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Maybe it's a celebrity one. Maybe, Oh, that's.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Weird, that's weird, that's not it's fourteen year old girls
bedroom wallstand off.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
There it's Barbie, thank you anyway, my little pony. No,
so what's on yours? It's not human? Leaders eight hundred
double O four Coast six two six ninety nine. Can
you believe we're halfway through October already? At the end
of this month, it's Halloween, and there's a Halloween playlist
right now Coast Halloween on Iheartradios. It's the Free Amp.
It's all the freaky songs are on there right now.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
I'm so excited about this New York trip because we're
going there when it is New York Halloween, right, Yes,
and you know how the Americans do Halloween, and remember
that story we went to in Vegas last year and
we got all those us we got, like the Barbie costume.
Speaker 6 (05:48):
That's wonder if I've got reagamsday.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Adams was massively yes.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
It's literally my homework while I'm in New Yorker to
get costumes for Halloween.
Speaker 5 (05:56):
My son wants a ninja one.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Oh, that's hard that that ninja'sn't even him this year.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
Maybe like a ninja with a pumpkin head or doodle exactly.
Speaker 4 (06:09):
Hey, so maybe it's an intole on your screensaver, because Sam,
you bove them to a glad the airport with a
different screen side and bump into him.
Speaker 5 (06:15):
Jay, So I just saw a screensaver over his shoulder.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
Just not be creepy.
Speaker 5 (06:19):
I couldn't. I couldn't help but.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Notice the fact that his biggest love in life was
a great fishing day with with the lads, you know,
and he had a great fishing down. He wanted to
remember it for all eternity, to put it on a screenpap.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
He didn't want to remember the lads specifically, It was
just a fish asking before like.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
What sort of non human things do you have as
a screensaver, Paula, what's on your phone?
Speaker 9 (06:38):
My puppy.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
Kind of puppies? Are we talking.
Speaker 9 (06:45):
Poodle cross puppies?
Speaker 1 (06:46):
But they're like your guys job cavoodless.
Speaker 9 (06:51):
Yeah, they're they're smaller than that five.
Speaker 6 (06:55):
Actually, yeah, I don't mind people looking over my shoulder
at that.
Speaker 9 (06:59):
I don't want people took over at my shoulder, my family.
Speaker 5 (07:02):
That's a good point.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Well, generally people don't on your phone like that.
Speaker 5 (07:08):
Google fishes were looking at me, Thank you very much.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
Then for you people on the text saying the same
sort of thing at the moment that Peeter, oh good morning,
what's on your phone? That's a non human?
Speaker 9 (07:18):
I'm the same. I've got a kovoodle tune, Louis.
Speaker 6 (07:23):
Do you know what I'm actually with you, guys?
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I do have a shot of the kofoodle, but it's
the koverdle and I so it's like at least you
know what I.
Speaker 5 (07:30):
Mean, like you know it's yes, because it was a
very big kavoodle, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Yeah, big boned boy, he's a big bone.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
What's your koodle called?
Speaker 5 (07:38):
Peter?
Speaker 4 (07:40):
Louis, Louis are nice, nice, Well, thank you for sharing
that on the tics on two six nine nine.
Speaker 6 (07:45):
I've seen you, Jase.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
I'm just thinking about the dogs I've seen ten on
your screen when I haven't been creeping on you.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
You you wouldn't put your motorcycle up on it though,
just because it's so emasculating.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
We wouldn't want to start an awkward conversation.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Well, and technically with the two wheel at the front,
it's not really a moti buke.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Is it?
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Two wheels at the front.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Actually, while we're talking about kids, why did you never
have rop dancers? I never saw dancers on your screensaver
and someone said they have their cat on the ears?
Speaker 6 (08:12):
What about that one from the Boden's day when when
we did that pet.
Speaker 10 (08:15):
Shoot not a highlight of my career. He was humiliated,
he was wishing death upon himself.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
You can win five thousand dollars Coast Cash for Christmas.
Basically tell us the songs you love and I'm not
so keen about and you win five grands in there.
It takes music to two six nine nine.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
We just say on that Christmas note. I know that
we've come down on you every time you've mentioned it
since March, but it actually isn't that far away now,
Like it's okay to say you should be thinking about starting.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
A Christmas if you compare it to the way this
year has played out.
Speaker 5 (08:57):
It's three days away.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
So over the week, in a bit of scrolling through
the news and camps, you and I found I found
some news that sort of says a little bit, and
I was surprised this was making headlines. So King Charles
is about to do this big tour and he's going
to get to Australia right as part of his big tour,
and he's going to say more. I think he's going
to get He's a Commonwealth and everything anyway, So King
Charles is going to travel with two doctors and a
supply of spear blood. And I thought all presidents have
(09:23):
been doing this for years and years and years.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
I don't know what's up with the blood, right, So
are they saying you need a transfusion in the plane?
Speaker 4 (09:30):
If God, it's.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Royal blood, it's royal blood. You can't just have a
transfusion from every anyone?
Speaker 5 (09:34):
Can you care?
Speaker 6 (09:35):
Is it actually royal blood?
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Right?
Speaker 3 (09:37):
King's blood? I'm pretty sure they don't make blood.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
But also I think and when they do this with presidents,
you know, you know the presidential motor keys that drive
around and stuff. One of them is always an ambulance.
Apparently in that ambulance is stocked full of the president's blood,
and I think it's the same thing for the king,
so that if God forbid he gets shot or something,
then they just put the blood black in them.
Speaker 5 (09:53):
So crazy, I know, but I thought he's the king.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
You'd expect that, wouldn't you.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Hang on a minute, I'm just being really dumb, like
it's the king's blood that they're going to replace his
blood worth, Yes, so they just take blood from him
and have it stockpile. I just don't know if that
actually happens. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (10:12):
Anyway, let's go.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Let's move on to the things more exciting space. Have
you seen this? This is amazing space.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Explain it all because there are a lot of women
out there rolling their eyes right now, going, oh gosh,
another one of these high in the sky things. We're
never going to see it.
Speaker 8 (10:27):
All right.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
So Elon Musk has the company SpaceX, and he's obviously
endeavoring to send rockets and humanity to Mars. So they
continue on that journey, and they've broken through another kind
of really important thing in terms of keeping the cost
per launch down. They've caught the rocket and giant mechanical arms,
which looks like something directly out.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
Of the Thunderbirds.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
So the rocket comes down out of space instead of
landing out at sea on a catchment pad. It comes
in and these two arms go and give it a
giant hug and it sits there, which means you can
then load the next load of people or the next
load of cargo to it and shoot it up into
space again.
Speaker 5 (11:01):
You don't have to get the rocket, move it on
to land thirty thousand miles away and put it back up.
Speaker 6 (11:06):
So what's the advancement? What's what's the news here?
Speaker 3 (11:09):
It's basically they've turned space exploration into a bus station.
Speaker 4 (11:14):
What so they catch you like tweezers.
Speaker 5 (11:15):
It's like a giant set of tweezers.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
So people doing this are people going.
Speaker 5 (11:21):
Well, they're working up to that. A few years.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
The award winning chat show host Wine, Connoisseur and Lol
made of Ours Graham Norton as in Ours last week
to JT, a night show host who was brilliantly filling
in for us while we're away. He announced last week
that he's coming to New Zealand for the first time.
Speaker 9 (11:40):
Here.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
Haven't listen to this. You are coming to New Zealand.
Speaker 5 (11:44):
I know. I've never been to New Zealand before.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
It's finally happening.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
It's because this country loves you.
Speaker 5 (11:52):
Do you know that?
Speaker 8 (11:54):
People tell me that, But it's weird that I'm you know,
because I've never been there.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
Yeah, so it is straight.
Speaker 9 (12:01):
So we'll we'll, we'll see they love me.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
But I'm really im forward to coming there.
Speaker 4 (12:08):
People in the audience can ask you questions and you're
just gonna have to sit there and answer the questions.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
Yeah, I mean, uh, which risk? I mean, like I say,
I haven't been to.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
New Zealand before.
Speaker 5 (12:21):
I don't know how that will get.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
But I'm going to be fine.
Speaker 5 (12:25):
I show I showed three. No, he's not doing a.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
Cute he's head enough. So you can see the whole
interview at Coast Breakfast on Instagram or Facebook if you're
like but yes, JT. Chelley without mate Graham Norton, who
I thought he'd been here before.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
We love Graham Norton, don't we But I am I
am interested to know what he's going to do. In
a show like is he going to interview famous people
like normal or is he just going to talk him
sout manage if.
Speaker 4 (12:46):
He brings out the big Ridge here, how would that be?
Speaker 3 (12:49):
It still blows me away that he hasn't been here.
He seems so affiliated with New Zealand.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Yeah, it's weird.
Speaker 5 (12:54):
He said that wine label, he said for years he
hasn't been down here.
Speaker 6 (12:58):
It's quite a stiding missing out.
Speaker 5 (13:00):
We will tell him that he will become our best ambassador.
You just watched us. He'll come down here and love it.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
You're so right. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
You know.
Speaker 4 (13:06):
The really cool thing is you can get you all
the details on our website at Coast Online dot code
onions here. But every day this week there's a chance
to win two tickets to one of his shows.
Speaker 6 (13:14):
I know.
Speaker 4 (13:15):
So if you're listening after nine this morning details just
theaters after night on.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Coast Coasts Feel Good Breakfast catch Up podcast with Tony Street,
Jas Reeves and Sam Wallace.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
Picture this right. Maybe you took some time out during
the school holidays, or maybe you're planning in a couple
of months from now to take a bit of a
Christmas break see hanging out of the beach, for example,
right minding your own business and your phone starts going
off and it's a message from your boss. It's happened
to a guy called Tom, and he's making headlines this
morning because it said he got a message from his
boss saying, Hi Tom, hope you're having a great time
(13:46):
on your holiday. No need to reply right now. I
wanted to keep you in the loop. We had a
visit from the area manager and he's ticked off about
our figures. I think we're gonna have to deal with
some really tough things when you're back.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Oh, because it was going okay that text, until you're
going to deal with some hard stuff.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
There's nothing worse than that.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
I just knowing that impending doom is coming when you
come make off holiday.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
Just applaud that manager though, for the etiquette, because sometimes
we get messages from staff at our work and it
just rages straight and no pleasant trees, No hope you're
enjoying your leave.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
So that was a proverbial sandwich, if you know what
I mean, like really nice at the start, and then
basically see when you come back, you're a heat trouble.
Speaker 5 (14:27):
You're probably getting fired.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Would you prefer this is like straight away, I don't
come back.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
I don't want to think.
Speaker 5 (14:35):
About it for two weeks though on holidays. Just like
what he's done.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
There is this said, the horrible phrase we need to talk?
Do you know what I mean? It's a great name
for a podcast, podcast, a great name for a podcast,
but when someone says, hey, we need to talk, you
know what I mean? Refect?
Speaker 6 (14:50):
Do you know what? I think?
Speaker 1 (14:51):
That management should resist at all opportunities? And do you
know what I find if you need to contact someone
and you leave, it just shows you're a disorganized person.
Speaker 6 (14:59):
One I thought that Edmund beforehand.
Speaker 5 (15:01):
Well, yeah I got contacted over the break that we
just had.
Speaker 6 (15:04):
It could have been done before I leave just saying no, well.
Speaker 5 (15:06):
You know, I have to take my head off to
the boss because oh he is.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Such a greaser. He tell us what you really see.
Speaker 4 (15:12):
Before the.
Speaker 5 (15:15):
Wait, I wait to the song place before then.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
What he did he spotted on a video of mine
for the Seattle video specifically noticed that my my links
were coming out only to the left speaker, so I
had to split that audio to dual mono. The fact
that he spotted that means he my video conscientiously.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Did he need to tell you that.
Speaker 4 (15:38):
Is it ever okay for a boss? The contact staff,
we're there when they're on holiday. What do you think
eight hundred double four coast or flick it takes to
two six nine nine. If you are a boss, what
are your thoughts? If you have a boss that has
done this to you again, what did you think? Would
it happened? We'd love to hear your story. It's ice
house on coast if you haven't heard the news team
New Zealand is now three nil up over Britannia in
(15:59):
the America's car.
Speaker 5 (16:00):
No chance of them coming back from here?
Speaker 4 (16:03):
Who knows?
Speaker 5 (16:04):
Who knows?
Speaker 6 (16:05):
And do you know what? I just really hope I don't.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
This is miles away, but I hope if we win
this one that we can at least get the next
one on home soil, I agree, or win the public back, right, yeah?
Speaker 4 (16:13):
I agree?
Speaker 6 (16:14):
Well, I mean got to be the next one.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
The problem is it's hard to follow, isn't it with
the races at one and two in the morning.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
That's right over in Bufflona. You know, that's where were
things are at the moment. But if you were on leave, right,
would you want to hear from your boss? I mean,
is it ever okay for a boss to con'tact you
and leave? I'll be honest, I actually don't mind, Jace,
Are you kidding me? I was about to say, who
wants to hear from their boss?
Speaker 1 (16:33):
What? Psychopat almost saying please.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Kind of with Jase, because like, if it's something that
needs to be done, you know, it's better to do
it and get it off your plate then have it
kind of sitting on your shoulders.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
You guys aren't busy enough in the term obviously. I
even even though I was away for a week holiday,
I just want to completely discind it.
Speaker 4 (16:49):
I was away at a wedding for a week in
like a destination winning one time, and I'm not where
we're working now, but my boss at the time got
a hold of me while I was at the wedding.
I was like, oh, of course I need to do this,
this is this, and it got my mind thinking already.
Speaker 6 (17:00):
But the next time I reckon.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
It's I think it's rude unless it's absolutely necessary and
it is necessary for some reason.
Speaker 6 (17:08):
For example, I will use us.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
We had to sort out our itinerary for big spender, right,
and I was like, yep, that is necessary. Because we're
leaving tonight. So I get that we had to we
had to do a zoom on our leave because it
was pressing. But if it's not pressing, then why what
is your reasoning?
Speaker 5 (17:25):
Of course, you're right, I forgot about that meeting. Do
you know what claim a Dane lou.
Speaker 4 (17:33):
Are your thoughts on this? It's okay for a boss
to content you and your leave.
Speaker 8 (17:37):
Oh my lord, God with the soul.
Speaker 7 (17:39):
But my boss was in the seventeenth and I was
a sulter administrator at a hotel and the motel. I'm in
Canada at a march into and I get a phone
call from my boss. How do I make this work?
Speaker 1 (17:55):
That is unacceptable behavior? And what did you respond?
Speaker 7 (18:00):
Oh my goodness, I said, bring the it man please.
And then I've got another phone call.
Speaker 9 (18:07):
I need the front office to report.
Speaker 7 (18:09):
And it's in the days before you have away your leaders,
and I'm trying to visualize in the middle of this
military boss on the phone. He could not break its like,
oh my god, I need to pay.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
That's outraged. And do you know what, as an employee,
you're completely wasn't your right to not respond to that
email or that text?
Speaker 4 (18:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (18:33):
But you say that, but those those are integral skills,
the very skills that keep you employed.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
I suppose you emails on your lead, just those little.
Speaker 5 (18:42):
Things that you can fix for the boss that no
one else can.
Speaker 6 (18:45):
It's your little you can fix that.
Speaker 5 (18:47):
I've got very little talent, book, film stuff.
Speaker 4 (18:51):
We're talking about this as a guy. And then used
this morning the sky called Tom who was on holiday,
and his boss message while he was on a break saying, hey, look,
I enjoy your break, but the area manager's been and
he's not pretty happy. He's not very happy with things.
It might be a bit of a pop show when
you get back, it's still and you get back.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
I just think we need to be really mindful of this,
quite honestly, because we're all on so much anyway, after
our work hours and on the weekends, just a normal
time that if you can't go what a week of
leave without being contacted, something's really wrong.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
Yeah, I mean it's such a big problem. This is
the crediting legislation about this in Australia.
Speaker 4 (19:24):
That's exactly right, Yeah, Helen, what are your thoughts?
Speaker 9 (19:26):
Yeah, I've been conflicted by pretty much every boss I've
ever worked for, But I do think you know, they
might text, but you don't have to open it.
Speaker 5 (19:34):
That's good, true, But.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
If they text, would you not be tempted to know
whether you.
Speaker 6 (19:38):
Still have a job?
Speaker 7 (19:40):
Isn't that on you?
Speaker 5 (19:42):
It's on you.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Well, I don't think they should have seen it in
the first place and create anxiety, because then I'd be
anxious about what the text was.
Speaker 4 (19:50):
Yeah, maybe maybe Helen's god a point, Maybe this on you.
Let's talk to someone who actually is a boss slade
you're a boss slash manager?
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Is it?
Speaker 4 (19:56):
Do you do that sort of stuff when you stuff
for on leave?
Speaker 8 (20:00):
Not at all, though I've done I've kind of done
this for a few different companies and then now I'm
actually a boss myself or for a complete different industry,
and I've got my own full time staff and I
pay him between hours and he works and that's when
they contact them that outside of that, it's his own
time and whatever he wants to do.
Speaker 6 (20:18):
The dream boss.
Speaker 5 (20:19):
Oh yeah, but just sounds like a lucrative industry. Are
you a plumber?
Speaker 4 (20:25):
Close?
Speaker 8 (20:27):
Like I mean, at the end of the day, like
kind of if there's anything that needs to get sort
of before they like that, I can foresee that when
they were away, I'll just try and organize and make
sure that they tell me what they need to know
and all that kind of stuff. And then when it's
on holidays, on way, if I'm on holiday, I don't
want to do to contact money, So why do I contact?
Speaker 6 (20:44):
I feel like you've nailed it. I feel like it's
a lack of planning.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
I think leave creeps up on people and they go, oh,
I was supposed to organize X y Z.
Speaker 6 (20:52):
I'll just give them a sneaking tipt Yeah, I want
to see a little bit.
Speaker 5 (20:55):
It's nice to see.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
But you know, a little bit of power back in
and employers, you know, small business.
Speaker 5 (21:01):
That's what keeps this country with you.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Today, we need to talk about the THERMOMX because I
have had two weeks of annual leave, which actually hasn't
felt like leave because I've been stage marbling for Matilda,
which is a full time job. Anyone that's even done
that And anyway, I got the chance though, to thrash
the thermomex for two weeks and I feel like I
need to give you an update. And if you don't
know about this, I was given one for my birthday
(21:26):
in September my husband purchased, which I was very surprised
at because I'd been wanting one for a long time
and they're quite expensive, and so now I feel like
I have to make it worth my while. And Sam
is sitting here deciding whether he's going to purchase one too.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
It seems it could be the golden ticket to easier
preparation of meals. But at the moment, what you've been
doing for Matilda.
Speaker 5 (21:45):
Is baking, not just baking.
Speaker 6 (21:47):
I've also been doing meals.
Speaker 5 (21:48):
I just see baking. That's just you know, that's carb heavy, Jase.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
What we need. It's not going to whip me up
a salad, is it.
Speaker 5 (21:56):
Well, that's the question whipping up?
Speaker 1 (21:58):
While I say that. So this Thermis machine, if you're
not converted yet, it is like a rice cooker, a heater,
a cooler, a chopper in one, a blender everything. So
I have been making my smoothies in it, which is
kind of rendering my smoothie maker I already had on
the bench invalid.
Speaker 4 (22:17):
Don't they say? With the thermis? Because my wife's friend's
got one, which is putting pressure on our house now
as well, saying to thing as you Sam.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
So sorry about that.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
Guys my husband's Well.
Speaker 4 (22:25):
They're saying that it can replace like twenty of your
other appliance.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
Well, I don't need my smoothie maker anymore because it's
sitting there and I can use it for that. I
don't need my rice cooker because it cooks rice perfectly.
I also don't need my food processor. And this is
one of the biggest things about it. Right, So say,
let's say we were having a make your own salad
for dinner.
Speaker 4 (22:43):
What a great time.
Speaker 5 (22:47):
I'm not sold at this point.
Speaker 4 (22:48):
Do you want to bring?
Speaker 1 (22:51):
I will literally say to you, right, I just put
a click a button that says lettuce, and I can
put a whole lettuce in the therma mix and all
go jug and it'll cut it perfectly how Lisa should
be cut right or McDonald's mccheck, and yes like that.
So I take it out and then I go, okay,
now I've got like four carrots. Chuck the carrots in
and it julians your carrots or whatever you want, however
(23:13):
you want them.
Speaker 6 (23:14):
It slices the cucumber up perfectly.
Speaker 5 (23:16):
I don't even know.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
How it works. Can julian a carrot like the little sticks?
It does everything how does it Julian carrot? Isn't Julian spirally?
Speaker 5 (23:24):
Oh is it Julian? Which is this?
Speaker 6 (23:25):
Someone go Julian?
Speaker 5 (23:27):
Okay?
Speaker 4 (23:27):
Anyway, so you've been using a lot of threshing the holidays,
and you're pretty sold on this.
Speaker 6 (23:32):
I'm so sold and convinced.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
And then like, I know, you don't want me to
talk about the baking, but the Matilda cast and crew
and band that I was baking for because I felt
like I could do nothing else but give them cubs
and sugar to keep them going when they were rehearsing
and doing shows till eleven at night. I made the
best caramel slice I've ever made, and it was from
the Thermo mix. It's the recipe that's in the iPad
in the machine. So and you just follow it and
(23:56):
you just go next, next, next, touch screen and it
doesn't even screen goes put in, you know, two hundred
grams of flour and then it weighs it, and so
you just pour poor, poor until it's ready, and then
the next one pour poor poor with whatever it is.
Speaker 6 (24:09):
The hardest part was keeping up with the shopping for
the ingredients because I keep running out of stuff.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
It's reiterated on the text machine, Sam get one, You'll
never regret it. A love one hundred percent more useful
than hobby.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Yep, absolutely makes the best curries. Like I know it's
sounding carb heaby at the moment, but I'm going to
have everyone over for a DIY salad night and you'll
all be convinced.
Speaker 5 (24:30):
The new Doubleware party.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
I know you don't make friends with solid, but we
need to talk about an issue that I'm having. And
I don't know if you've ever experienced this, but I
would like to know other people are doing the same
thing as me, because I experienced over the weekend packing
paralysis and I'm calling it that because I was literally frozen,
not knowing what to put into my suitcase where it
(24:54):
was going to go, what things I need. And it's
been happening for the last two days constantly. So we've
got this spend a trip to New York right now.
New York is an autumn when we go, and I've
been having a look at the temperatures and it gets
about as low as eleven and on one day it
looks like it's going to be about twenty.
Speaker 6 (25:11):
So what does that mean?
Speaker 7 (25:12):
Right?
Speaker 1 (25:12):
You're doing activities you need? You need active where you
need stuff to go to Broadway at night? You need
warm stuff. But what if it's sunny and you're too
warm and you want to pack light because you might
do some shopping over there. You don't want to overpack
your suitcase. But there are necessities that you need. And
do you take boots and heels or just boots? I
(25:33):
don't know how many pairs of sneakers do you take?
Do you take cool looking ones and your nerdy runners?
Do you how many pairs of tights?
Speaker 7 (25:39):
Are you?
Speaker 3 (25:40):
Guys experiencing this because I was in roone packing and
I went, Okay, I need my gray jeans, but that's
not going to go with those shoes, And where's my
belt on my belts downstairs?
Speaker 5 (25:49):
And then what shoot does it go?
Speaker 3 (25:50):
And everything's in different parts of the house and you're
just stuck in the middle of your own mind.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Can you freak out and go I needed that belt?
What if I now forget to get that belt?
Speaker 6 (25:58):
I'll go do it now.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
But oh, but I still haven't got my medications, Like
for me, that's it antihistamines, the nasal sprays.
Speaker 6 (26:05):
Oh what if I get sick over there? Should I
take some throat spray?
Speaker 1 (26:08):
You know.
Speaker 4 (26:11):
Throats for years?
Speaker 1 (26:11):
What do we take?
Speaker 6 (26:15):
Are we following the.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
Advice of the amazing air hostess flood Scendant, who Joe
told us essential oils. She was like, take your poss
some socks who shake you mat shut him at the
beautiful Sam didn't Where is oh my diffuse in your
(26:39):
own pillow, special bambillow pillow that would just be the
weight in itself if I took the bam below.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
Honestly, you're right. I've had pecking paralysis so mad, I've
unpacked and repacked twice. I'm still do you know what happens?
Speaker 1 (26:53):
This is what happens every time, right you you say
there's one of two things that happened. You either go
anything I don't have on just get over there, and
then you get there and you don't have what you need.
Or you say, I'm just gonna put it all in
to make sure I've got it, and then your suitcase
is already overweight, and then you've got that.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
I couldn't.
Speaker 4 (27:10):
I couldn't sit my suitcasse shut because I went with
the whole. It's better to have it and not need
it than to have a glatitude.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
It is coude. How are you going to shop? I
don't know so and summary, we're all screwed.
Speaker 5 (27:20):
We are just going to take everything. So we're gonna
follow Jason and just say everything.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Make sure you put that shock you matte no doubt.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
Chasers on Coast and it's back and it's five hundred dollars.
How we play this game, as we roll the dice
to find it which one of us has to go
up against you? You got to call us on ill
eight hundred double ow four coast.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
He's rolled himself.
Speaker 5 (27:39):

Speaker 4 (27:42):
All right? So how this works is Sam's going to
leave the studio now you just call us and when
you get through you can get five general knowledge questions.
They're better bring Sam back in and if he cannot
match your score, you win five hundred bucks for your Monday. Cool.
Now I'll wait hundred double O four coast. Good luck
the Chasers on Coast.
Speaker 6 (28:01):
Hey, I'm Shane them from day and I'm taking on

to spend more time together.
Speaker 4 (28:08):
Oh very nice, Shane. What's your what's your lovely wife's name? Joe,
Joe Nice, you've got an idea for a restaurant you go.
Speaker 8 (28:15):
To, don't really just pick something we know the size.
Speaker 4 (28:21):
Nice so we don't have to cook, so we don't
have to do the dishes. I get it, all right, Shane.
So Tony has gone out and you've done the test.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
It's actually quite a stinker today, I reckon, but it's
not my kind of quiz.
Speaker 6 (28:31):
I think like you guys would be better than me
at it.
Speaker 4 (28:34):
I was.
Speaker 6 (28:34):
I was probably in all honestly a two possibly a
three part two.
Speaker 5 (28:38):
Yeah, good luck show all right?
Speaker 4 (28:40):
So Shane, what's gonna happen?
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Now?
Speaker 4 (28:41):
Sam leaves the studio he cannot hear what's about to happen?
You're gonna get these kind of questions. Thirty seconds on
the clock. You can pass. If we have time, we'll
come back to those ones. But again, it doesn't matter
what you get, because if Sam can't match you, you
win five hundred dollars to take Joe out for dinner.
Are you ready?
Speaker 8 (28:55):

New York States that was coming with us. As Tony
Street speaks to into Thereasa with her daughter Grace, spoil, ladies,
this is trip day.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
How are the excitement levels early on our day that
we fly.
Speaker 8 (32:10):
Out through the roode?
Speaker 9 (32:13):
Let's just say I didn't sleep much last night.
Speaker 1 (32:17):
It's such a weird feeling, Like can we just say
we actually get it? Like it's so exciting. But you
also must be like, we haven't met these people and
we are going for ten days. It's quite a major
isn't it? Traveling together? It is?
Speaker 9 (32:29):
But I feel like I know you because I always
listen to you guys.
Speaker 6 (32:32):
Oh that's nice.
Speaker 9 (32:34):
Yeah, you just gotta get to know us.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
Yeah, just trust me, you don't really know Sam until
you travel with us.
Speaker 9 (32:41):
I am a bit worried about them secretly.
Speaker 5 (32:43):
Yeah, you see, you haven't slept much last night. You
wait here the next ten days?
Speaker 4 (32:51):
Actually, yea, hey, I'm so Grace. How are you feeling
about things? Because you know Mum on the trip and
you want to take you I.
Speaker 9 (32:57):
Know, it still doesn't feel real, to be honest, I
feel like once I see you guys at the airport,
it'll feel real, but I just I still can't believe it,
Like I'm still in shock.
Speaker 6 (33:07):
It doesn't feel real. Can we just quickly confirm you're
a second year medical student?
Speaker 1 (33:11):
Right? And am I right in saying that on this
trip you have to sit an exam like whilst we're
doing our things somewhere?
Speaker 9 (33:19):
Yes, you're absolutely right. So I've got to sit a
test and I've got to make sure it matches with
the New Zealand time. So I think one of the
nights I'll be sitting a three hour exam.
Speaker 5 (33:27):
But don't you worry.
Speaker 9 (33:29):
You hear your book, so it'll be fine.
Speaker 5 (33:31):
Uncle Sam with you.
Speaker 1 (33:34):
The walls over here, He's like, what's the answer to this?
Who are you going to trust? Jason Sam?
Speaker 7 (33:40):
Or?
Speaker 4 (33:41):
Okay, so obviously you've started packing to reason. What sort
of things are you packing?
Speaker 9 (33:46):
Well, a mix of seasons, because I've seen the temperatures
are really fluctuated. A couple of the days last week
we're in their twenties, and then the week before it
was sort of thirteen four teens. But the nights seem
cold five sixty seven range, so.
Speaker 5 (34:03):
Yeah, everything, Yeah, it's such a weird range. Some of
the days up to twenty five, so you have to
pack for summer and winter.
Speaker 4 (34:10):
Yeah, is there one thing you really want to buy?
Speaker 9 (34:14):
Teresa Jos, I have big feet, so I have trouble
getting shoes over here.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
So shoes that Sally eight because because we love shoe shopping.
Speaker 6 (34:24):
I actually have big feet too. We're going to get on.
Speaker 5 (34:26):
Well, how about are we.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
Talking A twelve?
Speaker 4 (34:31):
You make sense? You abandon himself just done, very little feet.
Speaker 1 (34:36):
We will see you.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
Guys at the chicul Lean, New Zealand. We can't wait
see it a few hours, all right.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
I wanted to give you an update now on my
ear pods or my hearing aids, because that's why I
bought the latest EarPods, because they came up with a
hearing aid mode.
Speaker 6 (34:53):
Why didn't you wear hearing aids before?
Speaker 3 (34:55):
Well, I got criticized for people saying, way, you think
you're too cool for hearing aids.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
No.
Speaker 5 (35:00):
I think this is the perfect introduction to it.
Speaker 3 (35:01):
And I like the fact that, unlike a hearing aid,
it's very easy to take in and take out and
you look cool.
Speaker 5 (35:08):
I'm not going to hearing aids because they don't look cool.
Speaker 3 (35:12):
I tried hearing aids and every time I was in
the bathroom like bathing my girls, they'd scream or whatever,
and it's just like it's like hell for my head.
Speaker 5 (35:21):
It's just so loud.
Speaker 6 (35:22):
It needs to be a volume button on them.
Speaker 3 (35:24):
Look, I probably could get into the settings anyway, I'm
going to tell this is about a pause.
Speaker 5 (35:28):
So yeah, they do work as a as a hearing aid.
That's wow. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (35:32):
So do they double as a listen to music when
you go for a run as well?
Speaker 5 (35:37):
They do everything like that.
Speaker 4 (35:38):
That's the interesting thing.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
Do you know they have auto ducking, which is a
function in which I thought was quite interesting. So if
I'm at the gym right, I can be listening to music,
then if someone comes up to talk to me, it
will duck.
Speaker 5 (35:50):
The music, lower the music, and then it will go
shift to a hearing aid.
Speaker 4 (35:55):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (35:56):
Well you think it's great, right, But what I've.
Speaker 3 (35:58):
Learned about myself is that when I'm at the gym
and I've got my EarPods on and i'm training and
I'm straining, I make quite big noises. So what happens
is the music I've heard you, Yes, the music ducks
and then only here is an elevated version of me grunting.
Speaker 10 (36:18):
Can you just play the music I'm in the middle
of a set if I don't want to hear myself grunting?
Speaker 1 (36:22):
And also you, my friend, you go and walk over
to people all the time, like only in the middle
of a set and sad walks over.
Speaker 6 (36:31):
I don't want my music to duck under, just souse,
Sam's come over.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
You get those hot tips. And you know the other
The thing that works really really well for is television.
So I can now hear a Netflix program proper. I
can actually hear the people talking in it, so they
actually in terms of how they work because are hearing aid,
they're really good.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Can I just can I just say one pittform, You're
going to be one of those cool people that walk
around with their with their beat headphones.
Speaker 6 (37:01):
On like all day, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (37:03):
Yeah, And then no one's going to approach you because
they'll think you're just that.
Speaker 5 (37:07):
I'm listening to music, but I'm actually worrying them so
I can hear them better.
Speaker 4 (37:10):
Yeah, So yeah, genius, you heavy somewhere heavy.
Speaker 5 (37:14):
I don't write listening to myself grumting.
Speaker 4 (37:16):
Nobody does. Traffic's a little bit busier this morning. You'll notice.
Of course, it's back to school, back to work for
a lot of people who did take some time off
during the school holidays, including us. And it wasn't just
a holiday though, because I know Tony you were doing
school mom Dudy for Matilda. Yep, Sam, you're working a
little bit stuff, you know, filming, editing, a lot of things.
Speaker 6 (37:32):
Yeah, trying to get it, trying to get a free pool.
Speaker 5 (37:34):
Yeah, I still haven't got that.
Speaker 6 (37:35):
Still well, we need an update on that tomorrow too.
Speaker 1 (37:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (37:38):
Do you know what I did over the breakdoughs. I
developed a new love for being mixed racing.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (37:42):
Yeah, I took my boy to I didn't see that
on your gram. I'm going I'm gonna get something up.
Speaker 6 (37:46):
Yeah, so you filmed it.
Speaker 5 (37:47):
It's going to be a highlight reel of the holidays
for mountain riders.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Coup.
Speaker 5 (37:51):
I went to a track at Elsmore Park in Auckland.
Speaker 6 (37:54):
Did you go all the way to out East because
it's there's a.
Speaker 3 (37:57):
There's a ber mixed trick that's basically open to the public.
Cool my cruiser. My little boy was honing around on
his be mixed bike and I was to race when
I was a kid.
Speaker 1 (38:06):
Does he share your talent, he was.
Speaker 5 (38:08):
He loved it. He was like, can we go back
every single day? I'll tell you I should have seen
dead though Dead was he was unreal?
Speaker 6 (38:14):
Were you like Matthew Ridge two point?
Speaker 4 (38:20):
So you're inspiring him? See I got inspired as well.
So over the holidays, I was lucky enough to be
invited to a really flashed function. It's like an awards
dinner and so it was like suit and tie type
thing and I thought, I suit and tie, I'll try
and mix it up a little bit. And I've noticed
that Prince William is starting to do this thing ah,
and I thought, I know what I'll do. I'll take
some tips from Prince.
Speaker 1 (38:37):
William because you've already gone with the you know, the
close shades.
Speaker 4 (38:41):
That's right, That's right.
Speaker 7 (38:42):
So you.
Speaker 6 (38:44):
Really Sam's roll rolling with Charles.
Speaker 5 (38:49):
Ridge and you're like a t movision Prince William.
Speaker 4 (38:55):
William not quite the Prince so so I wouldn't like
he's those turtle nick jumpers and he wears like like
a jump with a suit.
Speaker 6 (39:04):
Do you mean a skivvy?
Speaker 5 (39:05):
Yeah, but it's a woolnit skivy's.
Speaker 6 (39:09):
I have a certain style of Nick.
Speaker 5 (39:14):
What are you thinking about.
Speaker 4 (39:15):
Nick, I think you also have to have one chin,
and that's my problem.
Speaker 6 (39:19):
I couldn't hide any double chins.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
You have one?
Speaker 4 (39:22):
No, no, I do, and.
Speaker 5 (39:26):
You don't have a nick. Though it turns into a
bell of climate.
Speaker 4 (39:31):
What happened in my hotel room? I put this thing
and I put my suit on, like, oh my gosh,
I can't. I can't leave the room like first, So
thank goodness, I'd back up with memble a suit and tire,
and I put the shirt and tire.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
Give us a look.
Speaker 4 (39:43):
Okay, this is this is what I was going to hear.
This is what I did in that wearing at the
awards ceremony.
Speaker 5 (39:48):
Yeah, you look like Grew from Despicable.
Speaker 4 (39:50):
Name does god?
Speaker 1 (39:52):
You g I don't know what's happened there, So.
Speaker 4 (39:55):
There's I could not leave the room. My agree, it
was horrific. I got that so horribly wrong.
Speaker 6 (40:00):
So I did I like that instead of Grew, you
went for the policeman.
Speaker 1 (40:03):
Look on the rights.
Speaker 4 (40:09):
Anyway, you can see a photo how I got this
horribly wrong and why I did not leave the hotel
room at Coast pre Because if you want to go
there and you can mock away as or you'll be
the fashion police because I can take it.
Speaker 1 (40:18):
And we just all agree that skivvy's and tootles aren't
a thing.
Speaker 5 (40:22):
Well, the rock wheel one, No, you can do it
only if you're the rock.
Speaker 1 (40:26):
No one else.
Speaker 5 (40:27):
You got ack.
Speaker 1 (40:30):
We need to talk about Matilda because it's finished. I'm
sure you'll be pleased to hear that it's done. I've
ever ring the boys with it for the last few months,
and I think now that the two of you have
gone to the show, you understand the gravitas of how
it's consumed our lives for the past probably years since
the auditions.
Speaker 3 (40:48):
You literally have no idea how Juliet has remembered not
only the songs, but the dialogue and around it. And
then when she got to the point where she started
speaking in Russian, I almost stood up and clapped because
I'm you know, I have a mental capacity of about
seven things, and she had learned a whole show.
Speaker 6 (41:06):
Yeah, I don't know how she did that.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
Can I just say so, Juliet? She turned twelve last week, right,
And so it was a lot of pressure. There were
three Matilda's and they had to carry the show and
learn so much dialogue, and I just want to shout
out to the people in in the cargo because they've
got Matilda coming and they've just cast their show, and
some friends of ours their little daughter, Rhianna, and she's
(41:27):
eight and she's just been named as one of the
Matilda's whoa and I, oh, wow, that is a lot,
and I'm going to help. I'm going to help the
mom get through it and give her some tips on
what to learn in what stages because it's a big
responsibility and I felt like it was big for an
eleven year old, for an eight year old, it's going
to be very, very huge, but also just one of
the greatest things you could do. Like I look at
(41:49):
what the caster did, the adults and the kids, and
I just think I was watching in all because I
was on the sidelines, right, So I was sometimes mother
helping in the green room, making the cups of tea
and coffee, do the dishes, bringing baking. In a couple
of nights, I was backstage helping film a bit of
their social media, and I was just in ara what
they do, because this is a whole group of people
(42:10):
that have day jobs, right, so you've a deal.
Speaker 6 (42:14):
Was a vet Chrissy who.
Speaker 1 (42:15):
Plays Missus Wormwood, she is a teacher at Auckland Dio.
You've got people that actually Rebecca Head, who pled played
Miss Honey, she's about to do the puppeteering for Coldplay
when they come to ugand she's a pather here in
her spare time, and so she's staying in Auckland to
do that. And I just look at them, and they
were all performing to the highest level to eleven at night,
(42:36):
and then a lot of them getting up doing their
day jobs and then doing it all again, and they
had to interact with so many different people. And as
a mum of two kids that were in the cast,
a nine and eleven year old, You're just so thankful
that they were working with these amazing people. And I
haven't even mentioned the bands that do their thing, the
people that put on their wigs every night, the makeup,
it's just the production managers. It is mind blowing what
(42:58):
it takes to put on a show of that caliber.
Speaker 3 (43:00):
We what did it feel like when Juliette walked out
on the last on her last show which we were
at on Saturday, and she got a standing ovation?
Speaker 5 (43:07):
What was that like for you?
Speaker 1 (43:08):
Honestly, I have been through the most rollercoaster of emotions
throughout this process, from the moment she had to audition
and got the role. It was just mind blowing. But
I could never have been prepared. First of all, for
the very first night she stepped out onto stage. I
was just full of like dread, like please remember all
of your lines, absolute pride that she got to that point,
and then just bursting when she finished and she walked
(43:31):
out and the spotlight was on and people were hearing.
I've never experienced that as apparent, and I just can't
even put it into words.
Speaker 6 (43:36):
It's going to be one of the great moments of
my life.
Speaker 4 (43:39):
I remember seeing you at the intermission. I gave you hugging.
You must be so proud of me. I'd heard a
lot about the show, obviously from you, leading up to this,
and you and your husband Matt, you know, fearing the
kids back and forth from rehearsals, but then seeing it
come together, and I had just seen it for the
first time that night, then seeing it come together and
again at the end. I'm hugging your sister afterwards as well.
Big that big, that moment, that standing ovation when she
steps out of the end, everyone's slapping and turing for
(44:01):
the rest of the cast. Then Matilda steps out.
Speaker 1 (44:02):
I know, I get arry thinking about it now, and
I also I can't explain to you what it's like
to be a part of the journey. Everyone in that
cast made us as the parents, feel really welcome, and
I feel like I know them like family members. Now
these the adults in the cast, it's such a weird feeling.
And so if you ever get the opportunity to one
go to one of these shows, be part of it
(44:24):
in any way, just grab it.
Speaker 3 (44:25):
And what a life moment at twelve years old to
not only hold down a theater by singing solo songs
up on stage, but then to get that standing ovation.
And I compare that to micro I've been in the
know in media for twenty years and I have never
had a standing ovation.
Speaker 5 (44:39):
Nine times out of ten. It's doing so.
Speaker 4 (44:43):
Thruly on that.
Speaker 1 (44:46):
Ironically, today at nine o'clock, tickets go on sale for Priscilla,
which is the next show that G and T Productions
are doing next year. I want to get amongst it.
Speaker 6 (44:55):
I'll still be there. I can't see my kids being
in there.
Speaker 4 (44:58):
He him, maybe not.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
Today on the show, we talked about packing paralysis, have
you fallen found?
Speaker 3 (00:15):
And my update on my AirPods which are doubling? Is
my hearing aids? And where grunting has become a problem?
Speaker 4 (00:21):
Is it ever okay for a boss to contact staff
while they're on holiday. We'll tell your story that has
made the news and one guy's ticked off with his
own boss. Feeling real good about the America's Cup right now,
even if you're not too sure about what the otting
has been because it's been a lot of regret. There's
(00:42):
a lot of racing up to this point, right This.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Always happens with the America's Cup because the Louis Vouton
Challenger series goes first before the genuine America's Cup and
no one really knows when it starts, and then it
starts and you go, oh, we're underway. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
I think that what made this one's so confusing was
the fact that the New Zealand race before the Louis
Vuitton and like in a Challenger series to kind of test.
Speaker 5 (00:59):
Before they went to the lo We happened to all
of them, thought the Challenger racing to.
Speaker 6 (01:04):
New Zealand did when I was in San fran as well.
Speaker 4 (01:07):
Yeah, but then we did for picking up no points
just for you, just to test their boat against see whatever.
It was very sneaky technic, I thought. But it's working
out for them. So then, so if you haven't heard, so,
Ben Ainsley's Britannia has knocked out Jimmy Spittle's Team Priora.
So Jimmy Spittle's.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Retired now isn't that weird? And don't you think he's
just going to come back and do something else. He's
just going to stay still.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Doesn't and he's just retired from being on the boat
because that would make sense.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
Yeah. So anyway, so now it's just being Ainsley against
Team New Zealand. Now we were yesterday, I think it
was just still early yesterday morning. It was the first
couple of races. We're up to nil. That's great. Earlier
this morning we go out again, the wind's just good.
We smacked them and then the wind dies down. So
now we're threeing up.
Speaker 5 (01:50):
Yes, So one of the races, was didn't go here
today and we.
Speaker 6 (01:52):
Got a penalty in the start.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
They made a protest and then we got to have
a big lead and choose watch side of the course
we went on, which was awesome. You go that in
racing they have the protest and penalties.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
It's often one of the courtroom arked, our.
Speaker 5 (02:06):
Boat is so fast. I reckon after watching that. I
watched both the.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Races on the first two races, and we are quicker upwind,
and I reckon what we were doing as I reckon,
we're holding back.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
I reckon, yeah, we're still I don't want to be
like negative about this.
Speaker 6 (02:19):
Can we just remember how we.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Were up eight one and about so fast no one
can beat us, and then in the space of a
day Jimmy Spitdler and his crew managed to find speed
out of nowhere and then they won it. That's true,
So Lea's just not count our tickets.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
First to seven. That is that how we went.
Speaker 6 (02:38):
If we were up, we up seven to one and
then we lost.
Speaker 4 (02:42):
It was nine either way though, so we're three in
the love at this stage. But again, as Tony just said,
anything can happen from here, and we've seen it happen
before the flags get involved, the court room gets involved.
So watch the space. If it's not your family on
your screensaver, who is or what is on your phone?
Speaker 7 (02:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (02:58):
Have a look right now?
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Have you go, you guys, because we're in the very
family fixed stages of our lives, aren't we.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
I'm more than there. I am have relinquished mind to
my children. They just grab it. So on any given day,
I don't know where. Today my eldest child's won, so
she's there. But sometimes it's the youngest one. I don't
I actually I don't know. There's apparently there's a carousel
of them you can get to.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
At the moment, it's our eldest standing in front of
a boat called Max because it's his name.
Speaker 5 (03:25):
What he's doing.
Speaker 4 (03:25):
After every hour it's changed to different.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Your kids, is your wife and your carousel.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
It's a ridico not I've got I've gone with. I've
done exactly that. I've gone with diplomacy. I've got my
wife and I've got my all my kids in a shot,
which is not easy to do when you've got, you know,
a family of effectively five, and then you have to
get them all into that vertical landscape.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Yeah, I've got there from a wedding photos the one
we're we.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
But you know, life changes and you move on and
you priority shift a little bit as well. I was
at the airport and I looked over a guy's shoulder
and he had on his lineup was a whole it
has been a great fishing day and he had it
all his fish the court lined up and he had
that as a screen saver. And I get that because
that he's had a wonderful day.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
There and he's been.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
Out with his mates, he's caught some good first and
he's like, I want to remember that I have the
fisherman's screensaver.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
What would be the equivalent of fish for us? What
me lining up a whole lot of nipples? Like I'm
just trying to think maybe what hobby could I do
with is no human in it? That I want my screensaver?
I reckon there's a whole lot of wine somewhere. Their
husbands on their phone as the classic car or something
that wife somewhere.
Speaker 5 (04:33):
I think it is a guy think it is for me.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
I'd want to put on my like what a nipple
bab running shoes like I could imagine that the team,
the Nipple team, but that these humans in the photo.
Speaker 5 (04:44):
Yeah, maybe Nipple is just not that glamorous. Well was
more glamorous and fresh, though, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Did first?
Speaker 4 (04:52):
Well, let's put this out there. Okay, that's early on
a Monday, But honestly, if you've put something on your
screensaver that is non human, what is it?
Speaker 1 (04:58):
What if the human it's not part of your family?
Speaker 4 (05:01):
Like, who is it? What's the human?
Speaker 8 (05:03):
Hello?
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Maybe it's a celebrity one. Maybe, Oh, that's.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Weird, that's weird, that's not it's fourteen year old girls
bedroom wallstand off.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
There it's Barbie, thank you anyway, my little pony. No,
so what's on yours? It's not human? Leaders eight hundred
double O four Coast six two six ninety nine. Can
you believe we're halfway through October already? At the end
of this month, it's Halloween, and there's a Halloween playlist
right now Coast Halloween on Iheartradios. It's the Free Amp.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
I'm so excited about this New York trip because we're
going there when it is New York Halloween, right, Yes,
and you know how the Americans do Halloween, and remember
that story we went to in Vegas last year and
we got all those us we got, like the Barbie costume.
Speaker 6 (05:48):
That's wonder if I've got reagamsday.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Adams was massively yes.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
It's literally my homework while I'm in New Yorker to
get costumes for Halloween.
Speaker 5 (05:56):
My son wants a ninja one.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Oh, that's hard that that ninja'sn't even him this year.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
Maybe like a ninja with a pumpkin head or doodle exactly.
Speaker 4 (06:09):
Hey, so maybe it's an intole on your screensaver, because Sam,
you bove them to a glad the airport with a
different screen side and bump into him.
Speaker 5 (06:15):
Jay, So I just saw a screensaver over his shoulder.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
Just not be creepy.
Speaker 5 (06:19):
I couldn't. I couldn't help but.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Notice the fact that his biggest love in life was
a great fishing day with with the lads, you know,
and he had a great fishing down. He wanted to
remember it for all eternity, to put it on a screenpap.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
He didn't want to remember the lads specifically, It was
just a fish asking before like.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
What sort of non human things do you have as
a screensaver, Paula, what's on your phone?
Speaker 9 (06:38):
My puppy.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
Kind of puppies? Are we talking.
Speaker 9 (06:45):
Poodle cross puppies?
Speaker 1 (06:46):
But they're like your guys job cavoodless.
Speaker 9 (06:51):
Yeah, they're they're smaller than that five.
Speaker 6 (06:55):
Actually, yeah, I don't mind people looking over my shoulder
at that.
Speaker 9 (06:59):
I don't want people took over at my shoulder, my family.
Speaker 5 (07:02):
That's a good point.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Well, generally people don't on your phone like that.
Speaker 5 (07:08):
Google fishes were looking at me, Thank you very much.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
Then for you people on the text saying the same
sort of thing at the moment that Peeter, oh good morning,
what's on your phone? That's a non human?
Speaker 9 (07:18):
I'm the same. I've got a kovoodle tune, Louis.
Speaker 6 (07:23):
Do you know what I'm actually with you, guys?
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I do have a shot of the kofoodle, but it's
the koverdle and I so it's like at least you
know what I.
Speaker 5 (07:30):
Mean, like you know it's yes, because it was a
very big kavoodle, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Yeah, big boned boy, he's a big bone.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
What's your koodle called?
Speaker 5 (07:38):
Peter?
Speaker 4 (07:40):
Louis, Louis are nice, nice, Well, thank you for sharing
that on the tics on two six nine nine.
Speaker 6 (07:45):
I've seen you, Jase.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
I'm just thinking about the dogs I've seen ten on
your screen when I haven't been creeping on you.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
You you wouldn't put your motorcycle up on it though,
just because it's so emasculating.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
We wouldn't want to start an awkward conversation.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Well, and technically with the two wheel at the front,
it's not really a moti buke.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Is it?
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Two wheels at the front.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Actually, while we're talking about kids, why did you never
have rop dancers? I never saw dancers on your screensaver
and someone said they have their cat on the ears?
Speaker 6 (08:12):
What about that one from the Boden's day when when
we did that pet.
Speaker 10 (08:15):
Shoot not a highlight of my career. He was humiliated,
he was wishing death upon himself.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
You can win five thousand dollars Coast Cash for Christmas.
Basically tell us the songs you love and I'm not
so keen about and you win five grands in there.
It takes music to two six nine nine.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
We just say on that Christmas note. I know that
we've come down on you every time you've mentioned it
since March, but it actually isn't that far away now,
Like it's okay to say you should be thinking about starting.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
A Christmas if you compare it to the way this
year has played out.
Speaker 5 (08:57):
It's three days away.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
So over the week, in a bit of scrolling through
the news and camps, you and I found I found
some news that sort of says a little bit, and
I was surprised this was making headlines. So King Charles
is about to do this big tour and he's going
to get to Australia right as part of his big tour,
and he's going to say more. I think he's going
to get He's a Commonwealth and everything anyway, So King
Charles is going to travel with two doctors and a
supply of spear blood. And I thought all presidents have
(09:23):
been doing this for years and years and years.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
I don't know what's up with the blood, right, So
are they saying you need a transfusion in the plane?
Speaker 4 (09:30):
If God, it's.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Royal blood, it's royal blood. You can't just have a
transfusion from every anyone?
Speaker 5 (09:34):
Can you care?
Speaker 6 (09:35):
Is it actually royal blood?
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Right?
Speaker 3 (09:37):
King's blood? I'm pretty sure they don't make blood.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
But also I think and when they do this with presidents,
you know, you know the presidential motor keys that drive
around and stuff. One of them is always an ambulance.
Apparently in that ambulance is stocked full of the president's blood,
and I think it's the same thing for the king,
so that if God forbid he gets shot or something,
then they just put the blood black in them.
Speaker 5 (09:53):
So crazy, I know, but I thought he's the king.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
You'd expect that, wouldn't you.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Hang on a minute, I'm just being really dumb, like
it's the king's blood that they're going to replace his
blood worth, Yes, so they just take blood from him
and have it stockpile. I just don't know if that
actually happens. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (10:12):
Anyway, let's go.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Let's move on to the things more exciting space. Have
you seen this? This is amazing space.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Explain it all because there are a lot of women
out there rolling their eyes right now, going, oh gosh,
another one of these high in the sky things. We're
never going to see it.
Speaker 8 (10:27):
All right.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
So Elon Musk has the company SpaceX, and he's obviously
endeavoring to send rockets and humanity to Mars. So they
continue on that journey, and they've broken through another kind
of really important thing in terms of keeping the cost
per launch down. They've caught the rocket and giant mechanical arms,
which looks like something directly out.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
Of the Thunderbirds.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
So the rocket comes down out of space instead of
landing out at sea on a catchment pad. It comes
in and these two arms go and give it a
giant hug and it sits there, which means you can
then load the next load of people or the next
load of cargo to it and shoot it up into
space again.
Speaker 5 (11:01):
You don't have to get the rocket, move it on
to land thirty thousand miles away and put it back up.
Speaker 6 (11:06):
So what's the advancement? What's what's the news here?
Speaker 3 (11:09):
It's basically they've turned space exploration into a bus station.
Speaker 4 (11:14):
What so they catch you like tweezers.
Speaker 5 (11:15):
It's like a giant set of tweezers.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
So people doing this are people going.
Speaker 5 (11:21):
Well, they're working up to that. A few years.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
The award winning chat show host Wine, Connoisseur and Lol
made of Ours Graham Norton as in Ours last week
to JT, a night show host who was brilliantly filling
in for us while we're away. He announced last week
that he's coming to New Zealand for the first time.
Speaker 9 (11:40):
Here.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
Haven't listen to this. You are coming to New Zealand.
Speaker 5 (11:44):
I know. I've never been to New Zealand before.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
It's finally happening.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
It's because this country loves you.
Speaker 5 (11:52):
Do you know that?
Speaker 8 (11:54):
People tell me that, But it's weird that I'm you know,
because I've never been there.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
Yeah, so it is straight.
Speaker 9 (12:01):
So we'll we'll, we'll see they love me.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
But I'm really im forward to coming there.
Speaker 4 (12:08):
People in the audience can ask you questions and you're
just gonna have to sit there and answer the questions.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
Yeah, I mean, uh, which risk? I mean, like I say,
I haven't been to.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
New Zealand before.
Speaker 5 (12:21):
I don't know how that will get.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
But I'm going to be fine.
Speaker 5 (12:25):
I show I showed three. No, he's not doing a.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
Cute he's head enough. So you can see the whole
interview at Coast Breakfast on Instagram or Facebook if you're
like but yes, JT. Chelley without mate Graham Norton, who
I thought he'd been here before.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
We love Graham Norton, don't we But I am I
am interested to know what he's going to do. In
a show like is he going to interview famous people
like normal or is he just going to talk him
sout manage if.
Speaker 4 (12:46):
He brings out the big Ridge here, how would that be?
Speaker 3 (12:49):
It still blows me away that he hasn't been here.
He seems so affiliated with New Zealand.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Yeah, it's weird.
Speaker 5 (12:54):
He said that wine label, he said for years he
hasn't been down here.
Speaker 6 (12:58):
It's quite a stiding missing out.
Speaker 5 (13:00):
We will tell him that he will become our best ambassador.
You just watched us. He'll come down here and love it.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
You're so right. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
You know.
Speaker 4 (13:06):
The really cool thing is you can get you all
the details on our website at Coast Online dot code
onions here. But every day this week there's a chance
to win two tickets to one of his shows.
Speaker 6 (13:14):
I know.
Speaker 4 (13:15):
So if you're listening after nine this morning details just
theaters after night on.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Coast Coasts Feel Good Breakfast catch Up podcast with Tony Street,
Jas Reeves and Sam Wallace.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
Picture this right. Maybe you took some time out during
the school holidays, or maybe you're planning in a couple
of months from now to take a bit of a
Christmas break see hanging out of the beach, for example,
right minding your own business and your phone starts going
off and it's a message from your boss. It's happened
to a guy called Tom, and he's making headlines this
morning because it said he got a message from his
boss saying, Hi Tom, hope you're having a great time
(13:46):
on your holiday. No need to reply right now. I
wanted to keep you in the loop. We had a
visit from the area manager and he's ticked off about
our figures. I think we're gonna have to deal with
some really tough things when you're back.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Oh, because it was going okay that text, until you're
going to deal with some hard stuff.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
There's nothing worse than that.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
I just knowing that impending doom is coming when you
come make off holiday.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
Just applaud that manager though, for the etiquette, because sometimes
we get messages from staff at our work and it
just rages straight and no pleasant trees, No hope you're
enjoying your leave.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
So that was a proverbial sandwich, if you know what
I mean, like really nice at the start, and then
basically see when you come back, you're a heat trouble.
Speaker 5 (14:27):
You're probably getting fired.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Would you prefer this is like straight away, I don't
come back.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
I don't want to think.
Speaker 5 (14:35):
About it for two weeks though on holidays. Just like
what he's done.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
There is this said, the horrible phrase we need to talk?
Do you know what I mean? It's a great name
for a podcast, podcast, a great name for a podcast,
but when someone says, hey, we need to talk, you
know what I mean? Refect?
Speaker 6 (14:50):
Do you know what? I think?
Speaker 1 (14:51):
That management should resist at all opportunities? And do you
know what I find if you need to contact someone
and you leave, it just shows you're a disorganized person.
Speaker 6 (14:59):
One I thought that Edmund beforehand.
Speaker 5 (15:01):
Well, yeah I got contacted over the break that we
just had.
Speaker 6 (15:04):
It could have been done before I leave just saying no, well.
Speaker 5 (15:06):
You know, I have to take my head off to
the boss because oh he is.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Such a greaser. He tell us what you really see.
Speaker 4 (15:12):
Before the.
Speaker 5 (15:15):
Wait, I wait to the song place before then.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
What he did he spotted on a video of mine
for the Seattle video specifically noticed that my my links
were coming out only to the left speaker, so I
had to split that audio to dual mono. The fact
that he spotted that means he my video conscientiously.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Did he need to tell you that.
Speaker 4 (15:38):
Is it ever okay for a boss? The contact staff,
we're there when they're on holiday. What do you think
eight hundred double four coast or flick it takes to
two six nine nine. If you are a boss, what
are your thoughts? If you have a boss that has
done this to you again, what did you think? Would
it happened? We'd love to hear your story. It's ice
house on coast if you haven't heard the news team
New Zealand is now three nil up over Britannia in
(15:59):
the America's car.
Speaker 5 (16:00):
No chance of them coming back from here?
Speaker 4 (16:03):
Who knows?
Speaker 5 (16:04):
Who knows?
Speaker 6 (16:05):
And do you know what? I just really hope I don't.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
This is miles away, but I hope if we win
this one that we can at least get the next
one on home soil, I agree, or win the public back, right, yeah?
Speaker 4 (16:13):
I agree?
Speaker 6 (16:14):
Well, I mean got to be the next one.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
The problem is it's hard to follow, isn't it with
the races at one and two in the morning.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
That's right over in Bufflona. You know, that's where were
things are at the moment. But if you were on leave, right,
would you want to hear from your boss? I mean,
is it ever okay for a boss to con'tact you
and leave? I'll be honest, I actually don't mind, Jace,
Are you kidding me? I was about to say, who
wants to hear from their boss?
Speaker 1 (16:33):
What? Psychopat almost saying please.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Kind of with Jase, because like, if it's something that
needs to be done, you know, it's better to do
it and get it off your plate then have it
kind of sitting on your shoulders.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
You guys aren't busy enough in the term obviously. I
even even though I was away for a week holiday,
I just want to completely discind it.
Speaker 4 (16:49):
I was away at a wedding for a week in
like a destination winning one time, and I'm not where
we're working now, but my boss at the time got
a hold of me while I was at the wedding.
I was like, oh, of course I need to do this,
this is this, and it got my mind thinking already.
Speaker 6 (17:00):
But the next time I reckon.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
It's I think it's rude unless it's absolutely necessary and
it is necessary for some reason.
Speaker 6 (17:08):
For example, I will use us.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
We had to sort out our itinerary for big spender, right,
and I was like, yep, that is necessary. Because we're
leaving tonight. So I get that we had to we
had to do a zoom on our leave because it
was pressing. But if it's not pressing, then why what
is your reasoning?
Speaker 5 (17:25):
Of course, you're right, I forgot about that meeting. Do
you know what claim a Dane lou.
Speaker 4 (17:33):
Are your thoughts on this? It's okay for a boss
to content you and your leave.
Speaker 8 (17:37):
Oh my lord, God with the soul.
Speaker 7 (17:39):
But my boss was in the seventeenth and I was
a sulter administrator at a hotel and the motel. I'm in
Canada at a march into and I get a phone
call from my boss. How do I make this work?
Speaker 1 (17:55):
That is unacceptable behavior? And what did you respond?
Speaker 7 (18:00):
Oh my goodness, I said, bring the it man please.
And then I've got another phone call.
Speaker 9 (18:07):
I need the front office to report.
Speaker 7 (18:09):
And it's in the days before you have away your leaders,
and I'm trying to visualize in the middle of this
military boss on the phone. He could not break its like,
oh my god, I need to pay.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
That's outraged. And do you know what, as an employee,
you're completely wasn't your right to not respond to that
email or that text?
Speaker 4 (18:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (18:33):
But you say that, but those those are integral skills,
the very skills that keep you employed.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
I suppose you emails on your lead, just those little.
Speaker 5 (18:42):
Things that you can fix for the boss that no
one else can.
Speaker 6 (18:45):
It's your little you can fix that.
Speaker 5 (18:47):
I've got very little talent, book, film stuff.
Speaker 4 (18:51):
We're talking about this as a guy. And then used
this morning the sky called Tom who was on holiday,
and his boss message while he was on a break saying, hey, look,
I enjoy your break, but the area manager's been and
he's not pretty happy. He's not very happy with things.
It might be a bit of a pop show when
you get back, it's still and you get back.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
I just think we need to be really mindful of this,
quite honestly, because we're all on so much anyway, after
our work hours and on the weekends, just a normal
time that if you can't go what a week of
leave without being contacted, something's really wrong.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
Yeah, I mean it's such a big problem. This is
the crediting legislation about this in Australia.
Speaker 4 (19:24):
That's exactly right, Yeah, Helen, what are your thoughts?
Speaker 9 (19:26):
Yeah, I've been conflicted by pretty much every boss I've
ever worked for, But I do think you know, they
might text, but you don't have to open it.
Speaker 5 (19:34):
That's good, true, But.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
If they text, would you not be tempted to know
whether you.
Speaker 6 (19:38):
Still have a job?
Speaker 7 (19:40):
Isn't that on you?
Speaker 5 (19:42):
It's on you.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Well, I don't think they should have seen it in
the first place and create anxiety, because then I'd be
anxious about what the text was.
Speaker 4 (19:50):
Yeah, maybe maybe Helen's god a point, Maybe this on you.
Let's talk to someone who actually is a boss slade
you're a boss slash manager?
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Is it?
Speaker 4 (19:56):
Do you do that sort of stuff when you stuff
for on leave?
Speaker 8 (20:00):
Not at all, though I've done I've kind of done
this for a few different companies and then now I'm
actually a boss myself or for a complete different industry,
and I've got my own full time staff and I
pay him between hours and he works and that's when
they contact them that outside of that, it's his own
time and whatever he wants to do.
Speaker 6 (20:18):
The dream boss.
Speaker 5 (20:19):
Oh yeah, but just sounds like a lucrative industry. Are
you a plumber?
Speaker 4 (20:25):
Close?
Speaker 8 (20:27):
Like I mean, at the end of the day, like
kind of if there's anything that needs to get sort
of before they like that, I can foresee that when
they were away, I'll just try and organize and make
sure that they tell me what they need to know
and all that kind of stuff. And then when it's
on holidays, on way, if I'm on holiday, I don't
want to do to contact money, So why do I contact?
Speaker 6 (20:44):
I feel like you've nailed it. I feel like it's
a lack of planning.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
I think leave creeps up on people and they go, oh,
I was supposed to organize X y Z.
Speaker 6 (20:52):
I'll just give them a sneaking tipt Yeah, I want
to see a little bit.
Speaker 5 (20:55):
It's nice to see.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
But you know, a little bit of power back in
and employers, you know, small business.
Speaker 5 (21:01):
That's what keeps this country with you.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Today, we need to talk about the THERMOMX because I
have had two weeks of annual leave, which actually hasn't
felt like leave because I've been stage marbling for Matilda,
which is a full time job. Anyone that's even done
that And anyway, I got the chance though, to thrash
the thermomex for two weeks and I feel like I
need to give you an update. And if you don't
know about this, I was given one for my birthday
(21:26):
in September my husband purchased, which I was very surprised
at because I'd been wanting one for a long time
and they're quite expensive, and so now I feel like
I have to make it worth my while. And Sam
is sitting here deciding whether he's going to purchase one too.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
It seems it could be the golden ticket to easier
preparation of meals. But at the moment, what you've been
doing for Matilda.
Speaker 5 (21:45):
Is baking, not just baking.
Speaker 6 (21:47):
I've also been doing meals.
Speaker 5 (21:48):
I just see baking. That's just you know, that's carb heavy, Jase.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
What we need. It's not going to whip me up
a salad, is it.
Speaker 5 (21:56):
Well, that's the question whipping up?
Speaker 1 (21:58):
While I say that. So this Thermis machine, if you're
not converted yet, it is like a rice cooker, a heater,
a cooler, a chopper in one, a blender everything. So
I have been making my smoothies in it, which is
kind of rendering my smoothie maker I already had on
the bench invalid.
Speaker 4 (22:17):
Don't they say? With the thermis? Because my wife's friend's
got one, which is putting pressure on our house now
as well, saying to thing as you Sam.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
So sorry about that.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
Guys my husband's Well.
Speaker 4 (22:25):
They're saying that it can replace like twenty of your
other appliance.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
Well, I don't need my smoothie maker anymore because it's
sitting there and I can use it for that. I
don't need my rice cooker because it cooks rice perfectly.
I also don't need my food processor. And this is
one of the biggest things about it. Right, So say,
let's say we were having a make your own salad
for dinner.
Speaker 4 (22:43):
What a great time.
Speaker 5 (22:47):
I'm not sold at this point.
Speaker 4 (22:48):
Do you want to bring?
Speaker 1 (22:51):
I will literally say to you, right, I just put
a click a button that says lettuce, and I can
put a whole lettuce in the therma mix and all
go jug and it'll cut it perfectly how Lisa should
be cut right or McDonald's mccheck, and yes like that.
So I take it out and then I go, okay,
now I've got like four carrots. Chuck the carrots in
and it julians your carrots or whatever you want, however
(23:13):
you want them.
Speaker 6 (23:14):
It slices the cucumber up perfectly.
Speaker 5 (23:16):
I don't even know.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
How it works. Can julian a carrot like the little sticks?
It does everything how does it Julian carrot? Isn't Julian spirally?
Speaker 5 (23:24):
Oh is it Julian? Which is this?
Speaker 6 (23:25):
Someone go Julian?
Speaker 5 (23:27):
Okay?
Speaker 4 (23:27):
Anyway, so you've been using a lot of threshing the holidays,
and you're pretty sold on this.
Speaker 6 (23:32):
I'm so sold and convinced.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
And then like, I know, you don't want me to
talk about the baking, but the Matilda cast and crew
and band that I was baking for because I felt
like I could do nothing else but give them cubs
and sugar to keep them going when they were rehearsing
and doing shows till eleven at night. I made the
best caramel slice I've ever made, and it was from
the Thermo mix. It's the recipe that's in the iPad
in the machine. So and you just follow it and
(23:56):
you just go next, next, next, touch screen and it
doesn't even screen goes put in, you know, two hundred
grams of flour and then it weighs it, and so
you just pour poor, poor until it's ready, and then
the next one pour poor poor with whatever it is.
Speaker 6 (24:09):
The hardest part was keeping up with the shopping for
the ingredients because I keep running out of stuff.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
It's reiterated on the text machine, Sam get one, You'll
never regret it. A love one hundred percent more useful
than hobby.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Yep, absolutely makes the best curries. Like I know it's
sounding carb heaby at the moment, but I'm going to
have everyone over for a DIY salad night and you'll
all be convinced.
Speaker 5 (24:30):
The new Doubleware party.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
I know you don't make friends with solid, but we
need to talk about an issue that I'm having. And
I don't know if you've ever experienced this, but I
would like to know other people are doing the same
thing as me, because I experienced over the weekend packing
paralysis and I'm calling it that because I was literally frozen,
not knowing what to put into my suitcase where it
(24:54):
was going to go, what things I need. And it's
been happening for the last two days constantly. So we've
got this spend a trip to New York right now.
New York is an autumn when we go, and I've
been having a look at the temperatures and it gets
about as low as eleven and on one day it
looks like it's going to be about twenty.
Speaker 6 (25:11):
So what does that mean?
Speaker 7 (25:12):
Right?
Speaker 1 (25:12):
You're doing activities you need? You need active where you
need stuff to go to Broadway at night? You need
warm stuff. But what if it's sunny and you're too
warm and you want to pack light because you might
do some shopping over there. You don't want to overpack
your suitcase. But there are necessities that you need. And
do you take boots and heels or just boots? I
(25:33):
don't know how many pairs of sneakers do you take?
Do you take cool looking ones and your nerdy runners?
Do you how many pairs of tights?
Speaker 7 (25:39):
Are you?
Speaker 3 (25:40):
Guys experiencing this because I was in roone packing and
I went, Okay, I need my gray jeans, but that's
not going to go with those shoes, And where's my
belt on my belts downstairs?
Speaker 5 (25:49):
And then what shoot does it go?
Speaker 3 (25:50):
And everything's in different parts of the house and you're
just stuck in the middle of your own mind.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Can you freak out and go I needed that belt?
What if I now forget to get that belt?
Speaker 6 (25:58):
I'll go do it now.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
But oh, but I still haven't got my medications, Like
for me, that's it antihistamines, the nasal sprays.
Speaker 6 (26:05):
Oh what if I get sick over there? Should I
take some throat spray?
Speaker 1 (26:08):
You know.
Speaker 4 (26:11):
Throats for years?
Speaker 1 (26:11):
What do we take?
Speaker 6 (26:15):
Are we following the.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
Advice of the amazing air hostess flood Scendant, who Joe

Speaker 4 (26:45):
Honestly, you're right. I've had pecking paralysis so mad, I've
unpacked and repacked twice. I'm still do you know what happens?
Speaker 1 (26:53):
This is what happens every time, right you you say
there's one of two things that happened. You either go
anything I don't have on just get over there, and
then you get there and you don't have what you need.
Or you say, I'm just gonna put it all in
to make sure I've got it, and then your suitcase
is already overweight, and then you've got that.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
I couldn't.
Speaker 4 (27:10):
I couldn't sit my suitcasse shut because I went with
the whole. It's better to have it and not need
it than to have a glatitude.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
It is coude. How are you going to shop? I
don't know so and summary, we're all screwed.
Speaker 5 (27:20):
We are just going to take everything. So we're gonna
follow Jason and just say everything.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Make sure you put that shock you matte no doubt.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
Chasers on Coast and it's back and it's five hundred dollars.
How we play this game, as we roll the dice
to find it which one of us has to go
up against you? You got to call us on ill
eight hundred double ow four coast.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
He's rolled himself.
Speaker 5 (27:39):
Have you rold hisself overself?
Speaker 4 (27:42):
All right? So how this works is Sam's going to
leave the studio now you just call us and when
you get through you can get five general knowledge questions.
They're better bring Sam back in and if he cannot
match your score, you win five hundred bucks for your Monday. Cool.
Now I'll wait hundred double O four coast. Good luck
the Chasers on Coast.
Speaker 6 (28:01):
Hey, I'm Shane them from day and I'm taking on
Sam today.
Speaker 8 (28:05):
Probably take my wife out for tea, get a chance
to spend more time together.
Speaker 4 (28:08):
Oh very nice, Shane. What's your what's your lovely wife's name? Joe,
Joe Nice, you've got an idea for a restaurant you go.
Speaker 8 (28:15):
To, don't really just pick something we know the size.
Speaker 4 (28:21):
Nice so we don't have to cook, so we don't
have to do the dishes. I get it, all right, Shane.
So Tony has gone out and you've done the test.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
It's actually quite a stinker today, I reckon, but it's
not my kind of quiz.
Speaker 6 (28:31):
I think like you guys would be better than me
at it.
Speaker 4 (28:34):
I was.
Speaker 6 (28:34):
I was probably in all honestly a two possibly a
three part two.
Speaker 5 (28:38):
Yeah, good luck show all right?
Speaker 4 (28:40):
So Shane, what's gonna happen?
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Now?
Speaker 4 (28:41):
Sam leaves the studio he cannot hear what's about to happen?
You're gonna get these kind of questions. Thirty seconds on
the clock. You can pass. If we have time, we'll
come back to those ones. But again, it doesn't matter
what you get, because if Sam can't match you, you
win five hundred dollars to take Joe out for dinner.
Are you ready?

is sid New York We're not just New York City,
New York States that was coming with us. As Tony
Street speaks to into Thereasa with her daughter Grace, spoil, ladies,
this is trip day.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
How are the excitement levels early on our day that
we fly.
Speaker 8 (32:10):
Out through the roode?
Speaker 9 (32:13):
Let's just say I didn't sleep much last night.
Speaker 1 (32:17):
It's such a weird feeling, Like can we just say
we actually get it? Like it's so exciting. But you
also must be like, we haven't met these people and
we are going for ten days. It's quite a major
isn't it? Traveling together? It is?
Speaker 9 (32:29):
But I feel like I know you because I always
listen to you guys.
Speaker 6 (32:32):
Oh that's nice.
Speaker 9 (32:34):
Yeah, you just gotta get to know us.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
Yeah, just trust me, you don't really know Sam until
you travel with us.
Speaker 9 (32:41):
I am a bit worried about them secretly.
Speaker 5 (32:43):
Yeah, you see, you haven't slept much last night. You
wait here the next ten days?
Speaker 4 (32:51):
Actually, yea, hey, I'm so Grace. How are you feeling
about things? Because you know Mum on the trip and
you want to take you I.
Speaker 9 (32:57):
Know, it still doesn't feel real, to be honest, I
feel like once I see you guys at the airport,
it'll feel real, but I just I still can't believe it,
Like I'm still in shock.
Speaker 6 (33:07):
It doesn't feel real. Can we just quickly confirm you're
a second year medical student?
Speaker 1 (33:11):
Right? And am I right in saying that on this
trip you have to sit an exam like whilst we're
doing our things somewhere?
Speaker 9 (33:19):
Yes, you're absolutely right. So I've got to sit a
test and I've got to make sure it matches with
the New Zealand time. So I think one of the
nights I'll be sitting a three hour exam.
Speaker 5 (33:27):
But don't you worry.
Speaker 9 (33:29):
You hear your book, so it'll be fine.
Speaker 5 (33:31):
Uncle Sam with you.
Speaker 1 (33:34):
The walls over here, He's like, what's the answer to this?
Who are you going to trust? Jason Sam?
Speaker 7 (33:40):
Or?
Speaker 4 (33:41):
Okay, so obviously you've started packing to reason. What sort
of things are you packing?
Speaker 9 (33:46):
Well, a mix of seasons, because I've seen the temperatures
are really fluctuated. A couple of the days last week
we're in their twenties, and then the week before it
was sort of thirteen four teens. But the nights seem
cold five sixty seven range, so.
Speaker 5 (34:03):
Yeah, everything, Yeah, it's such a weird range. Some of
the days up to twenty five, so you have to
pack for summer and winter.
Speaker 4 (34:10):
Yeah, is there one thing you really want to buy?
Speaker 9 (34:14):
Teresa Jos, I have big feet, so I have trouble
getting shoes over here.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
So shoes that Sally eight because because we love shoe shopping.
Speaker 6 (34:24):
I actually have big feet too. We're going to get on.
Speaker 5 (34:26):
Well, how about are we.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
Talking A twelve?
Speaker 4 (34:31):
You make sense? You abandon himself just done, very little feet.
Speaker 1 (34:36):
We will see you.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
Guys at the chicul Lean, New Zealand. We can't wait
see it a few hours, all right.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
I wanted to give you an update now on my
ear pods or my hearing aids, because that's why I
bought the latest EarPods, because they came up with a
hearing aid mode.
Speaker 6 (34:53):
Why didn't you wear hearing aids before?
Speaker 3 (34:55):
Well, I got criticized for people saying, way, you think
you're too cool for hearing aids.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
No.
Speaker 5 (35:00):
I think this is the perfect introduction to it.
Speaker 3 (35:01):
And I like the fact that, unlike a hearing aid,
it's very easy to take in and take out and
you look cool.
Speaker 5 (35:08):
I'm not going to hearing aids because they don't look cool.
Speaker 3 (35:12):
I tried hearing aids and every time I was in
the bathroom like bathing my girls, they'd scream or whatever,
and it's just like it's like hell for my head.
Speaker 5 (35:21):
It's just so loud.
Speaker 6 (35:22):
It needs to be a volume button on them.
Speaker 3 (35:24):
Look, I probably could get into the settings anyway, I'm
going to tell this is about a pause.
Speaker 5 (35:28):
So yeah, they do work as a as a hearing aid.
That's wow. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (35:32):
So do they double as a listen to music when
you go for a run as well?
Speaker 5 (35:37):
They do everything like that.
Speaker 4 (35:38):
That's the interesting thing.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
Do you know they have auto ducking, which is a
function in which I thought was quite interesting. So if
I'm at the gym right, I can be listening to music,
then if someone comes up to talk to me, it
will duck.
Speaker 5 (35:50):
The music, lower the music, and then it will go
shift to a hearing aid.
Speaker 4 (35:55):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (35:56):
Well you think it's great, right, But what I've.
Speaker 3 (35:58):
Learned about myself is that when I'm at the gym
and I've got my EarPods on and i'm training and
I'm straining, I make quite big noises. So what happens
is the music I've heard you, Yes, the music ducks
and then only here is an elevated version of me grunting.
Speaker 10 (36:18):
Can you just play the music I'm in the middle
of a set if I don't want to hear myself grunting?
Speaker 1 (36:22):
And also you, my friend, you go and walk over
to people all the time, like only in the middle
of a set and sad walks over.
Speaker 6 (36:31):
I don't want my music to duck under, just souse,
Sam's come over.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
You get those hot tips. And you know the other
The thing that works really really well for is television.
So I can now hear a Netflix program proper. I
can actually hear the people talking in it, so they
actually in terms of how they work because are hearing aid,
they're really good.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Can I just can I just say one pittform, You're
going to be one of those cool people that walk
around with their with their beat headphones.
Speaker 6 (37:01):
On like all day, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (37:03):
Yeah, And then no one's going to approach you because
they'll think you're just that.
Speaker 5 (37:07):
I'm listening to music, but I'm actually worrying them so
I can hear them better.
Speaker 4 (37:10):
Yeah, So yeah, genius, you heavy somewhere heavy.
Speaker 5 (37:14):
I don't write listening to myself grumting.
Speaker 4 (37:16):
Nobody does. Traffic's a little bit busier this morning. You'll notice.
Of course, it's back to school, back to work for
a lot of people who did take some time off
during the school holidays, including us. And it wasn't just
a holiday though, because I know Tony you were doing
school mom Dudy for Matilda. Yep, Sam, you're working a
little bit stuff, you know, filming, editing, a lot of things.
Speaker 6 (37:32):
Yeah, trying to get it, trying to get a free pool.
Speaker 5 (37:34):
Yeah, I still haven't got that.
Speaker 6 (37:35):
Still well, we need an update on that tomorrow too.
Speaker 1 (37:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (37:38):
Do you know what I did over the breakdoughs. I
developed a new love for being mixed racing.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (37:42):
Yeah, I took my boy to I didn't see that
on your gram. I'm going I'm gonna get something up.
Speaker 6 (37:46):
Yeah, so you filmed it.
Speaker 5 (37:47):
It's going to be a highlight reel of the holidays
for mountain riders.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Coup.
Speaker 5 (37:51):
I went to a track at Elsmore Park in Auckland.
Speaker 6 (37:54):
Did you go all the way to out East because
it's there's a.
Speaker 3 (37:57):
There's a ber mixed trick that's basically open to the public.
Cool my cruiser. My little boy was honing around on
his be mixed bike and I was to race when
I was a kid.
Speaker 1 (38:06):
Does he share your talent, he was.
Speaker 5 (38:08):
He loved it. He was like, can we go back
every single day? I'll tell you I should have seen
dead though Dead was he was unreal?
Speaker 6 (38:14):
Were you like Matthew Ridge two point?
Speaker 4 (38:20):
So you're inspiring him? See I got inspired as well.
So over the holidays, I was lucky enough to be
invited to a really flashed function. It's like an awards
dinner and so it was like suit and tie type
thing and I thought, I suit and tie, I'll try
and mix it up a little bit. And I've noticed
that Prince William is starting to do this thing ah,
and I thought, I know what I'll do. I'll take
some tips from Prince.
Speaker 1 (38:37):
William because you've already gone with the you know, the
close shades.
Speaker 4 (38:41):
That's right, That's right.
Speaker 7 (38:42):
So you.
Speaker 6 (38:44):
Really Sam's roll rolling with Charles.
Speaker 5 (38:49):
Ridge and you're like a t movision Prince William.
Speaker 4 (38:55):
William not quite the Prince so so I wouldn't like
he's those turtle nick jumpers and he wears like like
a jump with a suit.
Speaker 6 (39:04):
Do you mean a skivvy?
Speaker 5 (39:05):
Yeah, but it's a woolnit skivy's.
Speaker 6 (39:09):
I have a certain style of Nick.
Speaker 5 (39:14):
What are you thinking about.
Speaker 4 (39:15):
Nick, I think you also have to have one chin,
and that's my problem.
Speaker 6 (39:19):
I couldn't hide any double chins.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
You have one?
Speaker 4 (39:22):
No, no, I do, and.
Speaker 5 (39:26):
You don't have a nick. Though it turns into a
bell of climate.
Speaker 4 (39:31):
What happened in my hotel room? I put this thing
and I put my suit on, like, oh my gosh,
I can't. I can't leave the room like first, So
thank goodness, I'd back up with memble a suit and tire,
and I put the shirt and tire.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
Give us a look.
Speaker 4 (39:43):
Okay, this is this is what I was going to hear.
This is what I did in that wearing at the
awards ceremony.
Speaker 5 (39:48):
Yeah, you look like Grew from Despicable.
Speaker 4 (39:50):
Name does god?
Speaker 1 (39:52):
You g I don't know what's happened there, So.
Speaker 4 (39:55):
There's I could not leave the room. My agree, it
was horrific. I got that so horribly wrong.
Speaker 6 (40:00):
So I did I like that instead of Grew, you
went for the policeman.
Speaker 1 (40:03):
Look on the rights.
Speaker 4 (40:09):
Anyway, you can see a photo how I got this
horribly wrong and why I did not leave the hotel
room at Coast pre Because if you want to go
there and you can mock away as or you'll be
the fashion police because I can take it.
Speaker 1 (40:18):
And we just all agree that skivvy's and tootles aren't
a thing.
Speaker 5 (40:22):
Well, the rock wheel one, No, you can do it
only if you're the rock.
Speaker 1 (40:26):
No one else.
Speaker 5 (40:27):
You got ack.
Speaker 1 (40:30):
We need to talk about Matilda because it's finished. I'm
sure you'll be pleased to hear that it's done. I've
ever ring the boys with it for the last few months,
and I think now that the two of you have
gone to the show, you understand the gravitas of how
it's consumed our lives for the past probably years since
the auditions.
Speaker 3 (40:48):
You literally have no idea how Juliet has remembered not
only the songs, but the dialogue and around it. And
then when she got to the point where she started
speaking in Russian, I almost stood up and clapped because
I'm you know, I have a mental capacity of about
seven things, and she had learned a whole show.
Speaker 6 (41:06):
Yeah, I don't know how she did that.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
Can I just say so, Juliet? She turned twelve last week, right,
And so it was a lot of pressure. There were
three Matilda's and they had to carry the show and
learn so much dialogue, and I just want to shout
out to the people in in the cargo because they've
got Matilda coming and they've just cast their show, and
some friends of ours their little daughter, Rhianna, and she's
(41:27):
eight and she's just been named as one of the
Matilda's whoa and I, oh, wow, that is a lot,
and I'm going to help. I'm going to help the
mom get through it and give her some tips on
what to learn in what stages because it's a big
responsibility and I felt like it was big for an
eleven year old, for an eight year old, it's going
to be very, very huge, but also just one of
the greatest things you could do. Like I look at
(41:49):
what the caster did, the adults and the kids, and
I just think I was watching in all because I
was on the sidelines, right, So I was sometimes mother
helping in the green room, making the cups of tea
and coffee, do the dishes, bringing baking. In a couple
of nights, I was backstage helping film a bit of
their social media, and I was just in ara what
they do, because this is a whole group of people
(42:10):
that have day jobs, right, so you've a deal.
Speaker 6 (42:14):
Was a vet Chrissy who.
Speaker 1 (42:15):
Plays Missus Wormwood, she is a teacher at Auckland Dio.
You've got people that actually Rebecca Head, who pled played
Miss Honey, she's about to do the puppeteering for Coldplay
when they come to ugand she's a pather here in
her spare time, and so she's staying in Auckland to
do that. And I just look at them, and they
were all performing to the highest level to eleven at night,
(42:36):
and then a lot of them getting up doing their
day jobs and then doing it all again, and they
had to interact with so many different people. And as
a mum of two kids that were in the cast,
a nine and eleven year old, You're just so thankful
that they were working with these amazing people. And I
haven't even mentioned the bands that do their thing, the
people that put on their wigs every night, the makeup,
it's just the production managers. It is mind blowing what
(42:58):
it takes to put on a show of that caliber.
Speaker 3 (43:00):
We what did it feel like when Juliette walked out
on the last on her last show which we were
at on Saturday, and she got a standing ovation?
Speaker 5 (43:07):
What was that like for you?
Speaker 1 (43:08):
Honestly, I have been through the most rollercoaster of emotions
throughout this process, from the moment she had to audition
and got the role. It was just mind blowing. But
I could never have been prepared. First of all, for
the very first night she stepped out onto stage. I
was just full of like dread, like please remember all
of your lines, absolute pride that she got to that point,
and then just bursting when she finished and she walked
(43:31):
out and the spotlight was on and people were hearing.
I've never experienced that as apparent, and I just can't
even put it into words.
Speaker 6 (43:36):
It's going to be one of the great moments of
my life.
Speaker 4 (43:39):
I remember seeing you at the intermission. I gave you hugging.
You must be so proud of me. I'd heard a
lot about the show, obviously from you, leading up to this,
and you and your husband Matt, you know, fearing the
kids back and forth from rehearsals, but then seeing it
come together, and I had just seen it for the
first time that night, then seeing it come together and
again at the end. I'm hugging your sister afterwards as well.
Big that big, that moment, that standing ovation when she
steps out of the end, everyone's slapping and turing for
(44:01):
the rest of the cast. Then Matilda steps out.
Speaker 1 (44:02):
I know, I get arry thinking about it now, and
I also I can't explain to you what it's like
to be a part of the journey. Everyone in that
cast made us as the parents, feel really welcome, and
I feel like I know them like family members. Now
these the adults in the cast, it's such a weird feeling.
And so if you ever get the opportunity to one
go to one of these shows, be part of it
(44:24):
in any way, just grab it.
Speaker 3 (44:25):
And what a life moment at twelve years old to
not only hold down a theater by singing solo songs
up on stage, but then to get that standing ovation.
And I compare that to micro I've been in the
know in media for twenty years and I have never
had a standing ovation.
Speaker 5 (44:39):
Nine times out of ten. It's doing so.
Speaker 4 (44:43):
Thruly on that.
Speaker 1 (44:46):
Ironically, today at nine o'clock, tickets go on sale for Priscilla,
which is the next show that G and T Productions
are doing next year. I want to get amongst it.
Speaker 6 (44:55):
I'll still be there. I can't see my kids being
in there.
Speaker 4 (44:58):
He him, maybe not.

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
