Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:07):
You're listening to the Marcus lush Night's podcast from News Talks.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
I'd be goodness me just about to go on here.
I've got the hiccups, which is weird because I think
as you get older, you get the hiccups. Lest would
that be right? As a child, I seem to be well,
not a lot, but yeah, I'd get heiccups probably once
a decade these days, but yeah, just then and once
earlier this year. Also, So what's that about? Do you
grow out of hiccups? I think so? Get in touch

(00:32):
by name's Marcus Headle twelve Fascinated by this plane.

Speaker 3 (00:35):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
I was looking on my phone out and I saw
that there was a plane's circle. I thought, jeepest, creepers.
I've predicted that last night with a discussion about could
you land a plane? Thought it's happening. Not that many
on it, over one hundred but less than two hundred
went round and round and round. I don't think it
went as far as flying to feet. I mean what
I'm saying is I think they must have dumped some guests,
did they? But there's a massive debt. Well, there's not

(00:59):
a massive dent. There's a dent on the front of
the plane, which is hard to gauge how big it is.
There's a good photo on stuff to dead hit just
below the nose, but dead center. It looks like it's
about the size of a Swiss ball, or maybe the
size of a big basketball, if there's such a thing
as a big But i'd say goose. I'd say Canada goose.

(01:20):
But quite a bit of blood on the nose and
blood sliding down the side of the plane. Then blood
at the end on the engine. So I think it's
hit there. It's hit the front but then got into
the engine. I suspect that's what's happened. I don't know
what they can do about that band the birds. But yeah,
i'd say I'd say no one said it to Canada Goose,

(01:42):
but it'd be Canada Goose. Would I don't know what
height it was where it hit it, I'd take it
to Canada goose. Isn't it Put that on your flight simulator?
Are there birds on your flight simulators? Are they Canada geese?
Circled for two hours? A substantial flock of birds? Canada geese,

(02:03):
you're on that plane? Give me a holler. I'm interested
in this. They're trying to work out whether that where
they're doing a survey of the plane. You know, safety
remains our highest priority at all times. That's a good
thing to hear, isn't it established procedure By the way, too,

(02:25):
if you've booked to go on the Milford track on
the first two weeks, you can't because navalunche has closed it.
That's gonna take a long time to repear. You'll get
a refund, but yeah, that's happened Avalanche. So for two weeks,
those first two weeks of the season, if you booked,
then you'll get a refund because you were the people
that kind of booked on that moment. It became a

(02:45):
thing to get in there. But you want to talk
about the bird striker be Kingdom. You, particularly if you're
someone that knows about bird striker, had some experience with
your simulators and bird strikes, do get in touch. Eight
hundred and eighty ten eighty. You might have been on
the flight. You might have got out to the airport
have a look. I would have gone out there. It
was one of those exciting developing stories at the time.

(03:07):
All the emergency services on the ground. I don't quite
know why they need the emergency services on the ground
when the landing gear had come down. Someone might explain
more about that, but do get touched one start the
whole wall rolling tonight. Would love to hear to you,
from you, to you, from you. By the way, voting
in the local bodies closes on Saturday at midday. That's
just you can't mail them anymore. You've just got to

(03:28):
put your votes in the bins, the voting bins. The
orange I think like the orange guy with a slit
on the roof, the roof the lid lid slip, chuck
it in there. Get in touch Marcus till twelve. But
mainly to begin with, it's about the bird strike. You've
got any comments on that or an experience you might
have seen it, I'd love to hear you talk about that.

(03:51):
We're very excited always about aviation stories.

Speaker 4 (03:53):
Here.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
By the way, hot as hell down south twenty one
degrees while left Bluff tonight. I don't know if that topped.
I think everywhere is hot. There seems to be a
pressure system bringing in extremely hot weather. But mainly when
I start talking about the bird strike, if you've experienced that,
have got anything to say about that'd be great to
hear from you. Oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty

(04:15):
and nine to nine two to text. There's something else
you want to mention to start the whole ball rolling.
Love to hear from you. Good day for me. Dentists filling, Yeah,
tell you something about dentists. I reckon that. It's something

(04:35):
that I've got to ask about dentists. Right when did
they develop numbing gel? I think that's the key. I mean,
several times of the injection was quite unpleasant. But numbing gel. Wow,

(04:55):
that's a recent thing. When I say recent thing, I
feel like it's about the last thirty years. It's about
the last time I had a filling. But yeah, numbing jael,
is it a new thing. It's good. Good because once
the injection goes and you can't feel it, because once
upon a time it was dreadful. I'd rather have the
pain than the old injection going in.

Speaker 5 (05:13):
There we go.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
Always quite good having a filling down. You can find
the spot with your tongue. There we go. That feels good.

Speaker 6 (05:21):
You know.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
I start the whole ball rolling tonight. If you want
to come through birds strike and numbing gel, they are
two things on the table side. Well, I'll chuck some
other stuff out there. I don't know what's going to
get you going tonight. By the way, playing football in
the morning against soccer against Poland, played them three times,
never beaten them, although they have got their mind and
other things. They're playing Litho when you're on the weekend

(05:42):
for the World Cup to qualify. We've already qualified. But
get up for that eight point fifteen or eight thirty
in the morning for that one. Yeah, that's right. And
by the way, and in an Otago they are they
are investigating a series of suspicious fires at cell phone
tower sites. Here go figure that'll be conspiracy people, won't it?

(06:16):
A mobile site in downtown Wanna could be completely destroyed
and would take four weeks to be fixed. To be
a special kind of persons, I mean, especially bad to
set light to a cell phone tower, wouldn't you. It
looks like it's deliberate. Definitely deliberate, definitely deliberate. Mind you

(06:37):
drive round central Otago these days with all the billboards
up for particular websites and radio stations, the whole area
seems to have been radicalized. Some garbage going on up there.
Now they're setting light to cell phone towers, cheapers. You
wouldn't think there be anything that would burn on a

(06:59):
cell phone tower, would you. You'd need light of fluid
or accelerant, wouldn't you, Because not much is going to
happen up there anyho. Welcome to the show. Fourteen past
eight Birds strike Canada Goose. I guess we'll never know. Oh,
could you tell from the blood? Could they do DNA?
There's not much you can do about that either, is there?

(07:21):
Because the Canada Goose? What are you going to do?
When they've tried everything they can't get rid of them?
What do they call them? Rabbits of the sky? I
think that's what they call them. Last time we talked
about them. Might have changed. I'm sticking with rabbits of
the sky. Oh, I forgot. We have texts to keep
those coming through. You notice how all the sports teams now,

(07:45):
every time they score a try right, they all get
in a circle and do consciousness and breathe deeply and exhale.
Even the league teams do it. They all do it.
Do the All Blacks invent that? The first time I've
seen it done was after McCaw in the World Cup.

(08:06):
We got behind the and I feel we've led the
world in that or is that something?

Speaker 4 (08:09):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (08:10):
Everyone does it now, even the women's I shouldn't say
even the women's teams, Like, but yes, I've noticed that
all teams now, as soon as they've scored, they all
gather together and do that breathing. I've started doing it
on the show. But who started that off? Was an
all black thing? I feel it might have been. If
it was, it's been under celebrated. I would have expected

(08:32):
greg Or Paul to have written something about that. He's
up and down, isn't he with the all blacks? Wow?
Get in touch here till twelve, eight to fifteen, Marcus
till midnight? Anything else you got breaking news where you are,
let us know what that breaking news is. Get the
whole phones, go and get the s such a situation
rolling tonight, rolling, rolling, rolling, fancy seeming like to a

(08:52):
cell phone tower. Godness, But you get in touch of
you ont to be a part of the show. Marcus
till twelve. Anything else you want to talk about? Happy
to hear from you. Oh, eight hundred eighty, ten eighty
and nine to nine, tow to text, beautiful looking forward

(09:13):
to what you got to say? But yep, on we
go as I say, oh, eight hundred eighty ten eighty.
All the passengers were Some of the passages are spoken
from that flight. I don't know what altitude the bird.
I don't know if the passengers felt anything. We took off,

(09:34):
it felt a bit rough because everything fell. Then we
kept going in circles. You could tell something was up.
One passage were listening to music. Isn't here the issue
in the pilot who was great and kept call, made
an announcement to say the plane would be returning. We
kept going circles. So I asked someone what's actually happened?

(09:56):
Then looked out the window and saw blood on an engine. Gee,
Bruce Marcus, Welcome evening, Bruce, you're there. Brucellosis might need

(10:17):
to go back to Bruce Losis as if we can
get him sort of a bit better the animal. Yeah,
Wayne Marcus, welcome, Hey doing Yeah, hi Wayne, it's Marcus.

Speaker 7 (10:28):
Good evening, Good evening, Marcus.

Speaker 8 (10:31):
So it's again at the geese, not again at a goose?

Speaker 2 (10:33):
Oh was it more? It was more than one, wasn't it?

Speaker 9 (10:37):
Yeah, it's more than one?

Speaker 10 (10:38):
Drive again it off?

Speaker 11 (10:39):
Gee a giggle, getnett off geth.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
Is it called a gainnett?

Speaker 9 (10:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (10:48):
Getet of geese?

Speaker 12 (10:49):
Really?

Speaker 13 (10:50):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (10:51):
We never come across that in the crosswords.

Speaker 13 (10:55):
Now a cross words.

Speaker 14 (10:57):
Yeah, one of the easiest words possible.

Speaker 11 (10:59):
You know, that was the whole the numbing of the teeth, right,
I had like.

Speaker 2 (11:05):
Hang on, hang on, hang on, Wayne, what's the noise?

Speaker 15 (11:11):
That's my my vehicle.

Speaker 13 (11:13):
I'm talking hands free.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
Are you saying the collector? Are you saying the collective
term is gannet of geese?

Speaker 9 (11:20):
Gannet of geese?

Speaker 3 (11:21):
Yeah, g a n n e t Yep, that's it.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
Well, you're wrong.

Speaker 11 (11:28):
Gannett of geese was was taught back in the day.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
Even even check GPT doesn't recognize that.

Speaker 16 (11:37):
Ah.

Speaker 11 (11:37):
But back in our day we had the Cyclopedia, didn't we.

Speaker 3 (11:40):
Be one of those Scopedia and Cyclopedia Britannica.

Speaker 11 (11:44):
We didn't have the bones ring all that.

Speaker 13 (11:46):
We didn't never work on stuff.

Speaker 11 (11:47):
You know, you read the same age as me, Marc.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
I don't think so. You sound twice my age? Did you?
When did you first experiencing numbing? Gel?

Speaker 16 (11:57):
No?

Speaker 11 (11:57):
No, no, no, So what happened was when I was
a kid, right, because I've got no nemo on my teeth.

Speaker 3 (12:03):
Really extinctive every right, but is.

Speaker 2 (12:08):
It is it womb? Is it womb stuff?

Speaker 11 (12:12):
Yeah, so it's basically injection after induction after induction locals right,
But then for me it was the point was allegic
to localists in it as well, so that's where they
had to do everything live right, I had to endure.

Speaker 16 (12:26):
All the pain.

Speaker 11 (12:27):
So it was only in the last ten years that
bought numbing jail up.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
Really, I'd be glad to hear more about that. Thank you, mine,
I'm moving on from you, bruces Is Marcus Wilcome, Oh.

Speaker 17 (12:36):
Good evening. Apparently you tried before, but you mentioned about
the cell towers. The it seems to be that some
people seem to be very sensitive to this MF radiation
it's given off by these cell towers. I'm not personally,
but apparently these five G towers are much stronger in
terms of the emittance of that radiation than the four

(13:02):
G towers were. But you always dismiss anything which is
not mainstream, as you just go, oh, they're the conspiracy theorist.
But I have several of fans that live around me
who move away increasingly move into the country because they're
clearly physically and seemingly emotionally affected, or.

Speaker 2 (13:25):
Could you entertain the fact that could well be auto
suggestion that they've been told they're affected by it, therefore
they are affected by it.

Speaker 17 (13:33):
Well, I think when people just feel that they the
further they are out into the country away from these things,
the better they feel. And if they go to the
extent of actually moving house to move away from these towers,
then you know, I think there might be something else.
I just think it's too simplicity to dismiss it as

(13:55):
you do with everything. Oh, that's conspiracy theory.

Speaker 2 (13:59):
I know for a while when I first added beck
on this shift, that people were terrified of electronic meter reading,
right because you had a situation that sent a pulsepec
to the head offers to tell you what your readings were.
I could feel shows and shows and shows of people
ringing up and telling me how affected they were by

(14:21):
that and how sick it made them. No one's affected
by that anymore, Bruce, What does that tell you?

Speaker 17 (14:28):
Well, I don't have a smart meter, okay.

Speaker 2 (14:33):
But all those people that did and were affected, you
never hear from them now. So I wonder if they
just move on to something else that affects them and
it wasn't really affecting them.

Speaker 17 (14:42):
Well, I guess I'm really asking do you imagine that
it's possible that a certain proportion of the population are
so sensitive to these emf frequencies that you know, it
really sort of hurts them, So hence that might be
the reason for them destroying talent.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
It's but something that affects you. It doesn't mean you
go and sit light to it, perception or not. That's
bizarre to condone that.

Speaker 17 (15:10):
Bruce, Well, what about the Blade Runners in London? Do
you know the Blade Runners in London?

Speaker 3 (15:18):
No?

Speaker 2 (15:18):
I look that up, Thank you, Bruce, twenty two past eight.
By the way, the Blade Runners were a group are
a group of people that vandalize the cameras that film
cars going into London so they have to pay their
opposed to the congestion charge. They want people to be
able to drive dirty, old vehicles into town and not

(15:39):
to pay, so they're sort of the opposite. There are
people that think emitting fuels are probably good for you
and it's everyone's right, which is weird. Graham, this is Marcus.
Welcome O.

Speaker 18 (15:50):
Hi Marcus, Yeah, just ring it about the bird strike.
We had at what we think it will in Christchurch
Airport and my wife and I begin to Australia and
she'd ever been on a plane before. I worry about
this like sitting at an arm chair at home, you know. Anyway,

(16:12):
we had to wait to get rid of some seagulls
and then they we took off, and I tell you
what I knew have been so frightened in my life.
The noise. We hit some seagulls and they went in
the edge. And I tell you what, I wasn't worried
about the wife. I was too frightened, you know, just
didn't know what was going on. Had a plane just

(16:33):
the roar of it was just so deafening, it really was.
And then we had they talk. They took over and
dropped the fuel out at sea, you know, and then
come back. But all the fire engines were there on
the thing. But I knew, I've been so frightened and
normal life. It was really frightening. And the noise was bad.

Speaker 2 (16:54):
Yeah, so you could hear it inside the plane when
it hurt.

Speaker 18 (16:58):
Yes, we're in the plane. We took off, you know,
was it just one noise or.

Speaker 2 (17:04):
To continue like the blades were out of killed.

Speaker 18 (17:06):
Big, big noise. It was a big, big, big roaring
he vibrated in the plane. But it's a real roaring one.

Speaker 16 (17:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (17:17):
And then did you have to get onto a later flight?

Speaker 18 (17:20):
Yeah, we know there was a nixt day. I think, yeah,
there's a Quantus plane. We're on a jumbo, big used
jumbo and it and the thing just dropped. They went
out to seed. It must have been to drop the
fuel net. But the plane just dropped after after because
we were in the air, and then I just dropped

(17:41):
after it happened, you know, so very frightened.

Speaker 6 (17:45):
He was.

Speaker 2 (17:45):
Your wife quite happy to get on the flat plane
the next day.

Speaker 18 (17:49):
Yeah, she did go. She did never been because we
were living on the coast and she's from the coast
and so you're not used to the big planes and that.
But she, yeah, we got on it. Were they put
on this? Did they put us up for the night?

Speaker 3 (18:02):
Rim?

Speaker 4 (18:06):
Oh?

Speaker 18 (18:06):
I just took the engine out and replace her. But
cap us on your.

Speaker 2 (18:15):
Classic comment, Thanks for that gram. Hold your horses. Guys
will get to you when we can. My name is
Marcus Eddle, twelve beautiful oh one head on at night.
We've got to show five g back. You gotta love it.
We'll tell you what. It'll rejuvenate the country, rejuvenate the

(18:36):
country towns with people moving to the country towns to
get away from five G. We're in a big tower
and bluff opposite the four square. They're always working on it.
I don't quite know what they're doing, ramping up the
radiation or something. Always there, keep those texts coming through
a gannet of geese. What do you want to call it?

(18:56):
Call a group of gannets in a geese probably geese
of gannets. And my day we had encyclopedias. Get the
text when I've got half a chance, someone says, again

(19:21):
the pieces of cheese, I feel like a bit of cheese.
Who conspiracy on cell phone towers? I don't support vendors,
but Marcus science has shown them even non ionizing radiation

(19:43):
levels from cell towers affect animal breeding and behavior patterns.
Check it out. Well, what you google that? Is that
what you're supposed to do? Because I'm sure you google anything,
there'll be someone talking about the damage. You've probably gotta
study it. Moodock, it's Marcus. Welcome Marcus.

Speaker 19 (20:01):
Are you asking before about the breathing that they all
and so after? Anything that's good Yeah, well that by
the name of Michael Pitt's as all the psycho therapist
and heeds pretty much behind all our to the most
successful athlete is a real smart guy. A lot on
breathing and breathing exercises and your mental state and that

(20:22):
is Yeah, it's sort of like the leader in the field. Yeah,
that's what they all do it.

Speaker 2 (20:27):
Sorry, what's his name, Nigel Beach? How's that spelled?

Speaker 19 (20:34):
The e ah, the e A c h. Yeah, they don't.
You listen to Between Two Peers podcast. They talked to
a lot of those sort of sports people. They all
they all have a here a homer, a good athletes,
a real smart guy.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
Like But my question I'm asking, did the All Blacks
started that? Every team in the world now does it?
Did all? Is it something that the All Blacks?

Speaker 19 (20:59):
I don't know who started first All Blacks? What are
the first?

Speaker 2 (21:02):
But that's what that's what I'm asking. Is it something
we came up where there was everyone on to it.

Speaker 19 (21:07):
Oh, I think Nichael Beach came up with it.

Speaker 6 (21:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 19 (21:09):
Yeah, well he didn't teach people how to breathe, obviously,
but ex.

Speaker 2 (21:14):
Yeah, yeah, I'm curious to know about that because.

Speaker 19 (21:18):
Yeah, but never read about them.

Speaker 2 (21:22):
That's what I'm asking you. That's why I'm asking you
guys about it.

Speaker 19 (21:26):
Oh okay, that's that's that's the extended my knowledge.

Speaker 2 (21:29):
Okay, Well, I appreciate you coming through. I'm always up
for something. Oh wait ton with eighty ten eighty nine
nine to text anything else you want to come through
with it to be hearing from you. Robin, this is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 20 (21:44):
Yes, I'm Marcus. I was just sitting in front of
my laptop, so I have looked up Wikipedia, which it
tells me is the free encyclopedia, as you said, And
apparently the collective noun for a group of geese on
the ground is a giggle. When in flight they are
called a skien s k e. I n heard of that.

(22:07):
A team or a wedge. When flying close together, they
are called a plump. So I know, a gaggle. So
I had no idea. So I've learnt something usual. So
there we go. And the other thing is see gel
for the teeth. Amazing. I had it for the first
time a year ago and I have it now. It

(22:29):
costs me an extra ten dollars, but worth every cent
from the general I've bent to a new dentist, never
come across it before, and another ten dollars. And even
when I go to the hygenus now, because I'm a
real silk and have you know, zero pain threshold, and
I don't feel a thing, and I would recommend it
to anyone personally good.

Speaker 2 (22:50):
I mean, I think, well, no, I'm not saying it's
a good on you thing. I'm just saying that that
when you remember the dentist of a long, long time ago,
it was it was a needle that was painful, and
I would imagine that Jael's be around for thirty or
forty years. I was just curious to know it had
been invented Robin. But that's interesting what you said. So
let's go on with us. Get in touch here till
twelve twenty six to nine. Sam. This is Marcus Welcome. Hello, hiks, Sam.

Speaker 21 (23:16):
I'm ringing about the cell phone towers.

Speaker 2 (23:18):
Thank you.

Speaker 21 (23:20):
Yeah, I'm just a bit concerned myself.

Speaker 9 (23:23):
Ah.

Speaker 21 (23:25):
We certainly don't need these people moving to the country,
that's for sure.

Speaker 2 (23:30):
Well, I think there are people moving to the country
to get away from the towers.

Speaker 21 (23:35):
Yeah, absolute madness. We don't need those, We don't need those.
Conspiracy theorists living in the country.

Speaker 2 (23:43):
What's obviously you could do about it? I suppose you
can't really control the country who lives in the country,
can you?

Speaker 17 (23:49):
Thank you?

Speaker 2 (23:50):
I mean, I'm sure most of the time they're fairly Wow, Doug,
it's Marcus. Good evening.

Speaker 15 (23:57):
Oh hello, Marcus. So put eating to you. I've I've
been super seated about the lady got the giggle of
geese I looked up to basically Colins.

Speaker 2 (24:08):
Well, I think we all knew he was We all
knew he was wrong for the moment up in his
mountaindn't we.

Speaker 15 (24:13):
Well, I think it's probably something just a mishearing thing, Okay.
The other thing is that what she was saying about geese,
people often watch geese. Of course, they'll love me in
the air. I don't know their a nuisance what they
call them rabbit apparently, but so many people watch them,
and so that they are probably all different names. There
are probably so many different names that people give them.

(24:35):
But gagle was the one that I knew. That was
what I was ringing up about originally. The other thing
is just a little word for the birds. Basically, when
I was young, I'm seventy six now and when I
was young, I lived in Upper Heart and Tighter, and
one of the glories was going out at night in
the in the early evening and watching millions of starlings

(24:58):
go overhead. And I mean we're probably billions, actually, probably
billions of them. And I know that you know this
progress and everything it was, and we don't want people
being killed by them, of course, But when they broke
up all their nests and things, it made a real difference.
And I do think that you have to look at
it from both sides. I mean, if they do get

(25:20):
a form of plane which doesn't interfere with dudes, I
hope they didn't come back, really, because dudes worldwide. I
don't know what the actual numbers are. Sometimes you just
think that things like this are being wiped out because
so many things are, and then you discover that they're
not actually changing all that much. Like that's true of
from who's the animals? For example?

Speaker 2 (25:41):
How many majors? How many major planes have been brought
down by birds?

Speaker 15 (25:46):
I think it's quite a few, is that?

Speaker 2 (25:47):
Okay? I guess there was a guy on the Hudson,
wasn't he He got hit by birds on his last
flight ever. Miracle of the Hudson.

Speaker 15 (26:00):
Yea mind, you've probably got him an noble prize or something.

Speaker 2 (26:04):
And well, I think it was an nice guy anyway.

Speaker 15 (26:07):
Oh yes, I'm sure he was. Yeah, very brave.

Speaker 6 (26:11):
But then well I'd do it.

Speaker 2 (26:13):
I'd do it. I could. I mean, if I was
a pilot that I think it did what anyone would do, wouldn't.

Speaker 15 (26:17):
He Well, it's probably the best way to land, actually.
I mean if if you haven't got if you haven't
got an undercarriage, you can't do much else. I mean
I was never a real pilot. You know, I flow
in the plane, but I was never a real pilot.
I had. I was a co pilot when I was younger,
and I do remember then you're really worried about birds

(26:41):
strike and stuff like that. And if there's only two
of you in the plane, you know, it's some It's
one of those things that the guy sort of says,
well you've better watch out here, we'd better watch out
sort of thing. But usually it wasn't. I never saw it,
never saw of geese sort of thing. But I saw
lots of gulls around Wellington. The important particularly at Wellington,

(27:01):
I mean, landing was life and death anyway, there were
duds that were not. But yeah, I thought I'd ring
up and do the giggle thing.

Speaker 2 (27:11):
But by the time I got yeah, that's good. Have
you don't? Have you done flight simulators?

Speaker 15 (27:17):
I did when I was at school? Did they have
the first ones? That's some of the first flight simulators
either basically go on to.

Speaker 2 (27:26):
Talk more about that. Doug wonder if anyone does flight
simulators and you can dial on the birds like you
can do a giggle or a scheme of Canada geese,
or a skein of starlings or a skin of spilling plovers.
I wonder if you probably can do that a circle
for a week marks The first team I still using

(27:49):
the deep breathing technique was the Warriors Doctor May who
was the team doctor at the time.

Speaker 5 (27:57):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (27:59):
Someone said, it's never been a Canada geese. The correct
name for the Canada goose is exactly that of the
pluralist Canada geese. The bood is named after its native country, Canada.
It's not a citizen Canadian goose. Oh yes, okay. Someone

(28:21):
said it's embarrassment of pandas Lo people ring out to
saying it's not a gannet. That guy's been roundly judged
by the audience. Marcus forty years ago, when the first
cell phones had a huge car batter attached, I believe
that was because the signals had to reach one of
the few and far between towers that were far more

(28:43):
powerful than these new smaller ones are everywhere to cover
the areas that were blind in the line of sight signals. Wow,
someone says a ganet of cheese refers to cuck and booganet,
a soft, creamy gorgan Zola style cheese with blue notes.

(29:06):
Has ever been a more impressive name for a cheese
than Gorganzola. People always love collective nouns. I've never quite
seen the point they come up off in crypto crosswords,
don't they? Crows as always murder and things like that. Anyway,

(29:35):
do get in touch, Marcus Fiji. Flight always better haveing,
not need risky vehicles, but need but not have. So
a lot of people say it was the warriors that
started the deep breathing. Someone said Jonathan Vincent's seagull gone wrong.

(29:58):
The nose cone has made of fiberglass, so the weather
radar behind it can function. Probably not a large bird
seventeen to nine, but if everything are ready to don't
have enjoyed this that breathing the sports players do? Who
started that? Maybe the Warriors did start it? Even I
saw the women's rugby league team. I think it was
the the Brisbane play the Brisbane might have played the

(30:21):
Dogs and the women's final. They were doing it all. So, yeah,
it seems to really work. Maybe we should do that
before we go on air, Dan, we need a mental
resilience coach for talkback hosts, so can they'd be a
good thing. Now, what else you want to talk about tonight?

Speaker 16 (30:41):
People?

Speaker 2 (30:41):
We've talked already about the radiation from five G and
people setting out to the towers. Surely they would have
video of those people. I mean, everyone knows that's what
they want to do. I'm not encouraging, but you know,
that's what people if they get fixated on that. You know,

(31:02):
if you lived where, you get fixated and you'd be
drawn to it to get rid of it. I find
that very interesting. But do get in touch and birds strike?
Why they Marcus Emma Warrior's fan as I understand that

(31:28):
the all black Karen Reid put them onto it. Yes,
I would have thought it'd be the nook of the
skilled coach that got the aill backs onto it or
something like that. Marcus, all the people vocal about ugly
cell phone towers and all of a sudden have a
change of heart at that a house fire or their
partners are heart attack at that moment. Thank goodness. We
could call for help. Well, the old days, we'll have

(31:51):
a landline and we just dial one one one. But yeah,
I'm hearing you. Oh yeah, but you know, I don't.
I don't doubt that they firmly believed that the cell
phone towers are affecting them, just don't necessarily know. That's

(32:12):
what the evidence suggests. Fifteen from nine. By the way,
speaking of Central Otago, as we were earlier with their towers,
OPHA and Ormco both have boiled water notices. Still you

(32:32):
want to get it into a rolling boil for a minute,
or go to the pub and drink beer. There's plenty
of good ones there. They come and go, but gee,
no shortage of them. I'm sure the crack's good. Also,
here'll twelve be a part of it. That deep breathing

(32:55):
and cell phone why would you set light to one?
By the way, people queuing up to buy gold, isn't
that funny they're quing up when it's at its record price.
There's shots of people in Sydney, US four thousand dollars

(33:17):
jump fifty four percent this year alone. Now it's got fomo.
You know what that stands for? Fear of missing out?
People have gold fomo. That'd be a good crypto cross
with clue, wouldn't I know what the anagram would be?
Something of au gold fomo. See the clue. Now, Now,

(33:41):
how much gold you ever been? How much gold have
you ever been? Got out of the earth? Not much?
What about twenty meters cubed? Is it you ever read
those stats? I don't know what percentage of gold that's
mind able's got out twenty two meters cubed? It's not much.

(34:05):
What's the wood of rugby field that betweeny two meters?
Probably that with that length that height, probably two undred
and sixteen tons tons tour and sixteen tons of gold
have been mined. Unbelievable. A two thirds extracted since nineteen fifty.

(34:38):
That's due to technology. Always find it amazing. You wanted
a cryptic clue? I have a feeling back in a
room of gold. Oh yeah, wow, I'll work on that
lines freef you want to be a part of it.
Eight hundred and eighty ten eighty and nine two nine

(34:58):
to the text get in touch a giggle. Someone said
a gaggle of geese is from a shrilnkan Tom. I
didn't know that, although it's just chet ai, I'm not

(35:22):
fully aware of that linees fift, you want to come through?
It's nine to nine. How are you got seppening? We
are talking about that flight the bird strike who quite
worked out what was wrong with the plane, and of
course they had to come down. But I don't know
why they thought that they would need the emergency services

(35:46):
as they went round around it. I don't know if
they actually dump fuel. I think sometimes as these discussions,
and you can't dump fuel on the modern planes. But yes,
hello Terry, this is Marcus.

Speaker 22 (35:58):
Welcome, good evening, Marcus. A question, what do you call
a group of people who hover around and dive.

Speaker 16 (36:08):
Into the food.

Speaker 2 (36:11):
A gannett?

Speaker 22 (36:13):
Gennets? A group of gannets?

Speaker 2 (36:16):
You see them at the buffet?

Speaker 22 (36:22):
Yeah, they certainly.

Speaker 2 (36:23):
I think it's quite a common nickname for Pi's a
bit of a gannet. They say that, don't they.

Speaker 22 (36:28):
Yes, they do, they do.

Speaker 16 (36:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 22 (36:30):
But the thing that gets me is what do you
call a flight of gannets who are all hovering around
diving for fish?

Speaker 2 (36:39):
What do you call it?

Speaker 22 (36:41):
I don't know. Oh, okay, just a work up, Just
a work up. That's the fish pushing the weight up
for the gannets to dive out. But what what are
the group of gannets called as such a flight?

Speaker 2 (36:57):
Well look into that, Terry. Appreciate that it's even away
from nine. Yeah, here we go, five away from nine.
Keep those texts through if you've got something of interest
to say, I'm up for it, as should you be.
Keep those banging through. No, if you're breaking news, we
are also let us know what that is. Oh, Nigel

(37:30):
teaches that the whim Hoff method, so it didn't start
with him. It's more than just deep breathing. It's about
controlling your response to any situation, bringing down inflammation, mastering
your response to your environment. Some wants to talk about
people going to funerals that don't know the person fair

(37:52):
enough and what to say about that, But be in
touch if you want to talk. For those who just
join the show, there was well, there was no dramas.
The plane landed successfully. But what's happened is that there
is a massive dent on the front of the plane
where it has it hit a group of birds, and

(38:15):
with blood on the engine, I think where the birds
have gone into the engine. So yeah, sir Peter, Yeah,
I don't know what to say about that. I guess
you can't have things to cover the engine, can you
want impede the flow of air? The takeoff was a
bit rough Orient's Canada Geese, I don't know that for sure, though,

(38:40):
A good look at lake elsewhere. They went running around
that a few times. Yes, so that's I thought there
was quite a good coverage of that. Actually, I thought
it was quite interesting. So there we go. That's it
must have gone round about it did? It did one, two, three, four,
but five big loops, maybe five or six big loops

(39:05):
as it burnt off fuel and got everyone on the
ground to be in the right space for it to happen.
Gets your calls coming through people. Marcus till twelve oh,
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty Marcus I had karate
for many years. Deep breathing is from the Japanese marchal
out to called nagade breathing, slow deep breathing, and also

(39:25):
ibooki breathing. Which is deep breathing with fourth empty the
lungs of you dere. You know, I just want to know.
I know it's a thing, and I know it's always
been a thing. I just wanted to know why people
and sports have started doing it and who was a
sports team that did it with great effect? Hittell twelve
at seven past nine, Jane, this is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 23 (39:48):
Hello Marcus.

Speaker 3 (39:51):
Hi, Jane, can you hear me?

Speaker 2 (39:54):
Yes?

Speaker 23 (39:58):
Why the bed? Why have everything that happens in the
world today bring back bad memories to you?

Speaker 2 (40:06):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (40:09):
Tell me.

Speaker 23 (40:13):
Wow, I'm a seventy eight year old today, live on
my own. I'm miss speed Strikes. Taking my memory back
to nineteen eighty four in Buffalo, New York. Fine home

(40:39):
from Canada. At Buffalo, we were in a big Jumbo
seven or seven, packed to the max. We left the
runway and there was this big sud. Others and the

(41:04):
captain came on the intercon and he said, there's something
wrong with our landing gear. We'll have to return to
the airport. So he said, I don't know how we're

(41:25):
going to go, but oh, give it a try. We
landed back in Buffalo Airport. We're in the cafe having
a cup of tea and mixing. The e hostess approached
our table and she said, just want to let you

(41:52):
people know that we're on the flight, that it wasn't
the landing gear that we're experiencing. It was a flock.
I'll see, egos, what a bath experience?

Speaker 16 (42:12):
They was.

Speaker 23 (42:14):
Hey. And then at the airport, I it was thinking
I had game because I had pushed myself up to
the counter because I had a connecting flight and the
lackey the next morning to get me back to New Zealand.

(42:40):
I pushed and pushed and pushed a lucky I didn't
ever heart to teach. I've got a bad heart from
her today, okay. And because it was full of black
Americans and they were crowding the counter because they wanted

(43:05):
Tony tapping into and were they going and connecting flights
and what have you?

Speaker 16 (43:12):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (43:13):
That was.

Speaker 5 (43:15):
This.

Speaker 23 (43:16):
I love listening to you makes Jane.

Speaker 2 (43:20):
Where has you been?

Speaker 16 (43:24):
I was in.

Speaker 23 (43:25):
Canada living with my two brothers. I have two brothers
living in Canada and two brothers in Hamilton here in newsday.

Speaker 2 (43:38):
And Jane, did you say it's your birthday today? I'm
just not long cart happy birthday to you, Jane. Thank
you that eleven past nine. Keep those texts coming through.
I've been looking at the deadliest bird strikes. There was

(44:01):
one in Boston. There's a recent one in Corea. They're
not sure if that's bird strike or not. But the
deadliest bird strike was Eastern Airline's Flight three, seven, five
and nineteen sixty a lockeed L one eight eight Electra

(44:24):
sixty two of seventy two on board died, so ten
survived loss of recovery of engine power following bird ingestion,
resulting in loss of airspeed and control. During takeoff one
hundred and twenty feet it flew into a large flock
of starlings. Three engines was of any damage, resulting in

(44:46):
asymmetric thrust and loss of control. Crashed near the end
of the runway. The investigators recovered seventy five starling carcasses
in the area where the bird strike occurred. This was
the first widely documented fate bird strike disaster and promptent

(45:10):
decades of research into bird hazard management and airfield ecology.
I think around airports they plant special grass, so there
we go. And the worst second worst one was two

(45:30):
years later. United Airlines flight two nine seven Maryland, USA
seventeen died a whistling swan not whistling anymore. It was
one of the funeral and commercial cressures caused by the
direct bird impact to the empennage. The aircraft's tail section

(45:53):
collided with a flock of whistling swans at six thousand feet.
One bird strike stinted the right horizontal stabler, while another
fully penetrated the left stabilizer, which caused the horizontal stabilizer
to detachment flight. The birds were large, wow, which meant

(46:19):
they actually built stronger tails or empennage. I don't know
the word empnage. That'll come up with my crosswords. Presume
it's French empanage, French empanna, which means to feather an arrow.

(46:43):
It's got the stabilizer, the finn and the tailplane and
the rudder and the elevators. We live, we learn empanage.
Marcus Fiji air looks with suffered a similar to it
to that of Cactus fifteen forty nine, which was the

(47:03):
call sign for Captain Sullemberger's airbus A three twe that
land on the Hudson with multiple large birds hitting the
leading edge of the wings surfaces. Along with the loss
of the engine, the fear would have been the antiguity
of the second engine. When the skin of the aircraft's
punched or dended, there as a very real risk of
airflow could be serious erupted that will change the hand
and characteristics of the plane. If the number two engine

(47:27):
had degraded thrust, it was potentially very dangerous situation. Thankfully
it ended well. Tenny Swims is playing at Spark Arena tonight.
Swims an acronym for someone who isn't me sometimes, Marcus.

(47:54):
The Fiji Airways plane damaged the front nose cover, which
contains the radar. It also flamed out the engine after
hitting the birds, and then restarted. They were burning off
fuel to get the maximum weight off the seven three
eight seven eight hundred down manageable landing. Why did they
not dump it? Because they can't, I guess. So at
sixteen past nine we're talking about bird strike. Why not
do the deep dive? What about a whistling swan? I

(48:21):
thought there would have been a worse disaster. Hi, Marcus,
this is from Andrew. This evening I discussed the bird
strike Fiji Eirway's flight at Christchurch with an airline friend.
He said, the aircraft will of bird fuel and also
steadily dump fuel over the arro or so it circled
south of christ Church. The spray of fuel evaporates in

(48:41):
the atmosphere up at eighty one hundred feet the height
of its circle of flight path, but it will still
have been heavy than usual for landing and may be
landing on one engine. So the emergency of this will
be called out as is normal in a situation like this.
Oh why not? If and doubt get them out? Brilliant

(49:06):
hear from you? Someone said, do you want to mind gold?
Start with the oval office. There's more gold And every
time I see it, Wow, Beck, catch all the lines
are free. It's nineteen past nine. Get in touch with
talking birds. Strike and sports teams that do that breathing

(49:28):
exercise after scoring a try. It's not that they do it, clearly,
it's effective.

Speaker 4 (49:32):
They all do it.

Speaker 2 (49:33):
Now, where did that start? I know you all saying it,
so that comes from kung fu and stuff, But who
was the first team to do that? Grab in a circle,
sit in a circle and start the breathing. It seems
to be incredibly effective. You've got some information about that
that's kind of what we're on about. There was something
else in the beginning topics. I can't remember what all
of them are, but an also to about the birds

(49:54):
strike and geese, yes, first big one in nineteen eighty, sorry,
nineteen sixty. It seems mainly to happen in America, not
many in Europe less birds. Don't know the answer to that.
And the price of gold and people queuing to buy gold.
It's weird, isn't it that people when something that are high,

(50:16):
they think it's going to keep going up. We think
it'll be the worst time to buy gold, wouldn't it,
wouldn't you? I don't know the answer to that. Dame
Jillie Cooper worth ten million pounds on her death and
world's first pig to human liver transplant offers new hopes

(50:40):
to thousands on the organ waiting list. The Chinese have
transplanted a pig's liver into a living human for the
first time. How would you feel about that? I mean, obviously,
if you're certainly religions, I'm sure they would prevent that.

(51:02):
And I guess too, you've got to realize they're breeding
pigs to give up their livers. I suppose it's no
different from eating the pigs. She netly modified. The patient

(51:23):
died on day one, seven to one. I'm sure there's
obvious jokes to say there. I won't go there. That
would be in bad taste. Nine twenty one Here till twelve, Marcus.
We're on a flight out of Van Vcago last week
that was hit by a duck. The ground crew said

(51:44):
the runway looked like a murder scene. Our ten year
old son is a keen and proud Southend hunter. He
was stoked at as duck tally for October this year
is ahead of last year. He's a weird text. Hey mate,

(52:06):
who Brian Tamacke is blending on storming the beehive? Do
you support this? Clearly not Marcus seven three sevens can't
dump fuel, got to burn it off the old fashiony
that's what I thought. I thought you had to burn
it off. I didn't think you could dump it. So
I'm interested and one's got the information on that. But

(52:27):
all the lines are free. There's something different want to
mention tonight, would love to hear from you all all
in all on Hittle twelve. Anything else you want to
mention or put it to the put it to the test,
do get in touch. But mainly it's about the bird strike.
I don't know if anyone went to the airport to
look at that. By the way, a massive crash and

(52:48):
esh Burton five car collision. I don't know about you,
but obvious been in a little bit of today thinking
about how five cars could be involved in one crash.
I guess it's just the to Tina fect. That just
sounds ghastly, but yes, it's oh by the way in

(53:13):
the Milford sound. Sorry, the Milford Trek is closed for
the first two weeks of the season because of an avalanche.
I presume the avalanche on that third day when you
climb high go over the pass as the Wilmot Pass.
It's been a while since I've done the Milford Trek.
You kind of spend a couple of days walking up
a river valley. Then you spend one day sort of

(53:35):
going over a pass, which quite fun, provided you've clupped
your toenails. It's always the problem, isn't it. On the downhill?
Always important, most important thing you can do. Oh and
also two and Wana and other places in Central Otago.
They are sitting like to cell phone towers. I kind

(53:59):
of thought that people had gone quite on five G.
I know when it first came out, there were stories
and since it is the theme, there were stories of
birds dying. But I think that's all since been proven
to be poorly reported or not true. Yeah, so that

(54:34):
was five G misinformation and this still seems to have
a hold. I kind of don't know what I think
five G and COVID there was some interlink there. I

(54:58):
think people thought there was a link between COVID and
five G. She loath to mention it, really, but yeah,
they've said it kills birds wrongly, it's been proven that
it doesn't, and there's always mess probably deaths of birds,

(55:21):
often by poisoning, and probably they happen their five G
towers and people put two and two together wrongly. There'd
be my take on that one. But there's been people
all around the world trying to disrupt the five G
network by sitting light to towers. Well, it's kind of

(55:45):
a strange cross to die on.

Speaker 6 (55:46):
For me.

Speaker 2 (55:49):
It's my phone five G DAN, I don't know mine.
I don't know if I'm using it or not. Hello, Sam,
this is Marcus. Welcome HHO Marcus.

Speaker 21 (56:02):
Thanks for having me on my absolute.

Speaker 6 (56:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (56:06):
Yeah, I just I've come late to the discussion. I
heard you talking about bird strike and a while ago
I was working in the top dressing industry and my
colleague got whacked in the face by a duck when
it came through his wind screen after he took off.

Speaker 16 (56:22):
Wow.

Speaker 10 (56:23):
Yeah, so a kind of interesting story. Kind of miss
the propeller and hit the plexiglass, threw the plexiglass, hit
him in the head and he's wearing a helmet, thankfully.
Then the duck kind of exploded behind him on the headrest.

Speaker 2 (56:39):
So it's not glass, it's plastic. Is it the windscreen?

Speaker 5 (56:41):
Is that right?

Speaker 2 (56:42):
That's not going to cut him?

Speaker 16 (56:45):
Oh?

Speaker 10 (56:46):
Good question. No, I think it's like, yeah, I don't know.
It's like little shards of small Maybe it's glass. I'm
not sure it's It was kind of embedded in his helmet,
like little bits of this, so it's got a hard compound.

Speaker 16 (56:59):
Whatever it was.

Speaker 2 (57:00):
Is it common to wear a helmet.

Speaker 10 (57:04):
Yeah, some guys do. Yeah, And he it had a
like a like a visor kind of that comes down
over his eyes and but thankfully that was down and
it protected his eyes from being hit with the plexiglass
from the from the windustreen?

Speaker 2 (57:19):
Is that why you'd wear a helmet?

Speaker 12 (57:20):
Sam?

Speaker 10 (57:22):
H No, I think well it has a head season
there as well. Understand, has a glass of compound. And
also you could in the case of an accident, would
it would help.

Speaker 2 (57:34):
You because you see those helicopter pels with a head
set and the helmet. Don't you running around? So that
makes sense?

Speaker 10 (57:40):
Yeah, yeah, sure, it's just I think, just another safety
feature if you have a bad day.

Speaker 2 (57:45):
Also, remember that very early viral video of Fabio the
male model, getting hit by a goose on the roller coaster.
Do you remember that? If the hell of a miss? H?

Speaker 10 (57:54):
Yeah, there's a lot of weight in one of those birds.

Speaker 2 (57:57):
Oh wow, Yeah, I mean yeah, had anything like that
at speed?

Speaker 11 (58:02):
Yeah?

Speaker 22 (58:04):
Terrible, terrible.

Speaker 20 (58:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (58:06):
In the case of my colleague, I had to clean
the duck from the aircraft.

Speaker 7 (58:10):
Was awful.

Speaker 10 (58:10):
I don't like birds, and it was just quite unpleasant.

Speaker 2 (58:13):
I was talking to my partner the other day. I said, oh,
there's a bit of a your front grill of your
car's damage. She said, she said, oh yeah. She was
driving the bluff to pick some people up. She was
doing sober driver and she hit a duck, and but
then she arrived down at the fire station at Bluff.
The duck was still there in the grill. Oh no, yeah,
so and dared but you know, it just got a

(58:37):
meshed in it. So I guess that happens quite often.

Speaker 10 (58:40):
Yeah, ah, shark of poor duck.

Speaker 2 (58:42):
Yeah, well you go quickly.

Speaker 10 (58:45):
Yeah, that's true. They do dice with death plane on
the side of the road, So it's amazing.

Speaker 2 (58:51):
I want to you wonder how birds are so good
at working out cars speeds, because for a while the
speeds must have been a lot less. They must have
just adapted ay, because I could just particularly mine and
birds they can just kind of hop off the road
as the car arrives.

Speaker 10 (59:05):
Yeah, correct, And some birds seem to be way better
than others. So you can hit a powkicker without too
much trouble, but hitting a magpie is a lot more difficult.
I think did magpies on the road?

Speaker 2 (59:17):
I think sometimes in the winter too, they get sort
of underfed and quite lethargic, so they're a bit slower,
whereas in the summer they've got a bit more pepper,
a bit more get up and go because there's more
food out. I think Sam, nice to talk. I appreciate you.
Thank you for that. If you want to come and
beyond part of the show. That's what we're about tonight.
It's bird strikes and hitting birds and cars. That's an
interesting topic for me. Well, there's a lot of wildlife

(59:40):
on the Bluff Road. By the way. I've just googled
can a seven three seven eight weight dump fuel? That's
what the platform because for that's what it was, and
AI overfew, says Noah Boeing seven three seven, including the
seven seven eight, can not dump fuel. Unlike larger long

(01:00:01):
haul aircraft, the seven three seven is designed with maximum
landing weight that's very close to it to make some
take off weight, eliminating the need for a fuel dump
system in an emergency. Parts of A seven it's seventy
three seven flying stuggles to burn off fuel to reach
a safe landing weight rather than dumping in mid air.
I'm pleased. I've I've please effect check myself on fact check. Freddy. Hello, Jill, Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 6 (01:00:28):
Good evening, How are you good?

Speaker 2 (01:00:30):
Thank you, Jill.

Speaker 24 (01:00:32):
I'm not sure, Marcus. Someone may be able to verify this,
but I remember somewhere back in the sixties that there
was a hawk or a falcon, one of those types
of birds at Wellington Airport called Major who he was

(01:00:54):
also on a carpet ad that used to clear the
runway of seagulls for them.

Speaker 2 (01:01:01):
Great memory to remember his name or her name.

Speaker 24 (01:01:06):
Major Well could be either are but yeah, I've always
remembered that, and I don't know if they still do
that kind of thing. But yes, it was Willington Airport
and this job was, yeah, used to go ahead and
clear the runway of the seagulls. I guess, depending on

(01:01:28):
which way the wind was blowing, because they wouldn't land
if it was.

Speaker 9 (01:01:36):
A tail wind.

Speaker 2 (01:01:37):
I suppose I'd like to know more about that. I
can't see anythings straight away, but unfortunate with old newspapers
it's not all kind of online, so you can't find
it straight away.

Speaker 24 (01:01:46):
No, I understand, but there might be someone.

Speaker 2 (01:01:49):
Well, they could well be Jill. We'll find out Major
the falcon, the Major Falcon twenty three to ten met
This is Marcus.

Speaker 13 (01:01:59):
Welcome, Hey Marcus.

Speaker 14 (01:02:03):
Yeah, I have Beard quite often in the truck. That
s to be the big ones can't get out of
the way in time. Unfortunately, don't like doing it. But yeah,
they can't really swerve like the little ones. But I
had a couple of questions.

Speaker 3 (01:02:18):
First, what.

Speaker 14 (01:02:21):
What sort of engine wasn't that plane? Was it? It
wouldn't have been a crop, was it, because they wouldn't
have they would have burned up.

Speaker 2 (01:02:28):
Yeah, it's a jet engine. It's a big year, it's yeah, true.
And I presume I presume they've only got two as well.
That's right, isn't it.

Speaker 14 (01:02:42):
H Yeah, I think say most of them thro these
days pick jumbos or the weird one with the one
on the tail.

Speaker 5 (01:02:51):
Amore.

Speaker 2 (01:02:52):
No, it's two engines.

Speaker 14 (01:02:53):
Yeah, okay, yeah, but I've got another question, you know,
going back a couple of weeks after about the green
staining of my water.

Speaker 9 (01:03:01):
Yes, yeah, so.

Speaker 14 (01:03:05):
I've bought some thirty second roof treatment, so I'm going
to do that since it stops raining, because I need
about four days to treat. But uh, trails, I thought
I've wanted a pH meter, But apparently concrete tinks are

(01:03:25):
beta for alkaline.

Speaker 2 (01:03:29):
That makes sense. That makes sense because they would be
alkaline because they've got that sort of out there that
would That does make sense.

Speaker 13 (01:03:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:03:37):
So so my question is is that.

Speaker 14 (01:03:39):
We're putting a bit of limestone in my plastic tank
or just editive? Are you worried about.

Speaker 2 (01:03:49):
Are you worried about the staining? I mean, it's not
deteriorating the path?

Speaker 5 (01:03:52):
Is it?

Speaker 14 (01:03:54):
Not the staining but the corrosion because my kitchen riping
test is jammed and okay, understand the shower ahead a
bit of corrosion around it, and I'm wondering if it
might be bad for the copper in the points. So
I just want to bring the water back to proper
pH you see, and treating mew liking on the roof.

(01:04:18):
It's the first step. But I will test the pH
when I get my meat, and I'll test the hot
water cylinder as well. Just yeah, just what the people
reckon about a good way to drop the pH if
it there's sid my idea is the better limestone or
something like that? You know, yeah, just sort see if

(01:04:41):
anyone had any feedback.

Speaker 2 (01:04:42):
If you don't want, no, that's a good question, Matt,
and keep us posed about what the phs. I'll be
curious on that. Marcus. My bath got stained because I
accidentally dropped the can of paint into it. How do
I fix a Sheila sixty seven years young, Marcus A
duck fluent I windscreen when I was driving at one

(01:05:03):
thirty k's an ambulance once. No damaged. Surprising, but that
got my heart rate up and no doubt a fatality.
Loll Marcus. After fifty years of driving, I was I
have never had a minor bird. Many other birds. You'd
seen heaps of miners on the road to the North
Island and they are unhitchable in a car. Yeah, they're
smart birds. Marcus Duck's leaving roadside nests when driving in

(01:05:31):
the morning, a bit lethargic, can't take off and slow
on the ascent. Tried hard to avoid, but I was
minus a hold on astra winger afterwards. Yes, well, of
course you've got to avoid, you know, I mean, you
don't change your driving of a bird comes out at you,
do you? Marcus loving the show to wondering if you

(01:05:53):
do meet and greets for your fans, Why would I?
Why wouldn't I? Sorry, Kevin, it's Marcus, Welcome.

Speaker 7 (01:06:03):
Hi Marcus, how are you this evening?

Speaker 2 (01:06:05):
Very good? Thank you.

Speaker 7 (01:06:06):
That's the way I'd like to diverse. You've just about
drained the life out of me with Aviation News over
the last forty eight hours. I'd like to talk about
Bathurst now. It's one of our iconic races coming up
this weekend, which is held in Melbourne. And what concerns

(01:06:37):
me these days about Bathhurst is the excitement has gone.
When in the past you could buy an x U
one Tarana or an xb GT Falcon or a E
thirty eight charger on Monday morning after the Bathurst Race.

(01:06:59):
And what they used to say in the old days
is what one on Sundays sold on Mondays in the showroom.
These days, even though it's a very very exciting event,
the cars they use, we can't go and buy from
the showroom. It's quite sad really, because the traditional Batist

(01:07:23):
going back back into the seventies was raced with super
cars that were produced by ford Hold Kroisler. Even messters
are there. I think seven, Yes, that was around Peter

(01:07:43):
Starveson written on the side of.

Speaker 2 (01:07:44):
It, Kevin. Yes, I think it's over. Sorry, I think
Beth is gone.

Speaker 16 (01:07:54):
Gone.

Speaker 2 (01:07:55):
Yeah, people aren't twit anymore. Oh well, the Australia. Australia
is not making Holden Dover No, no, no, but the
Death Rattle it hasn't got long left to go. I
wouldn't imagine it's not nearly as iconic as it once was.

Speaker 7 (01:08:14):
No, of course, because they've changed the concept.

Speaker 2 (01:08:17):
No, I think because the whole car man, the whole
car industry around the world's changed. It's all Hyundai is now,
isn't it. Well, and everyone everyone's got those SUVs. No
one's driving saloons.

Speaker 7 (01:08:31):
Wouldn't it be exciting watching them go around?

Speaker 2 (01:08:33):
Not really, They're not the same I hate so yeah anyway.

Speaker 7 (01:08:36):
But yeahs macus just hold on to two seconds. I
remember watching the mobile I think it was five hundred
around the waterfronted Wellington and Peter Brock came out and
numerous other supercar drivers or from Australia and one of
our local lands I think his name was Prensceevikt or

(01:08:58):
something and he was driving involved.

Speaker 6 (01:09:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:09:02):
Yeah, but beth Is twenty years ago. You know, it
was the race that stopped the nation. No one cares, Oh,
you got to move on from saying you got to
move on. So it was great when it lasted. But yeah, anyway,
by the way, it's not near Melbourne's Neue South Wales
eighteen to ten. Matt Matt Matt, Matt Matt with the tank.

(01:09:27):
Someone said, put a concrete block in your tank. That'll
help with the pH Someone's very interested in how this
woman should ever have spelt paint in the bath. I
don't think that would be a problem, but we mainly
talk about when you've hit birds driving. Wow, good on you, Quinn.

(01:09:48):
When I was refueling at Auckland Airport, I had to
do a pre fuel on a Qatar Airways Triple seven
that arrived at five in the morning. When it rolled up,
I got near all I could smell was roast chicken
and the left engine with bits of bird in the
rear of the engines. So I gave the engineer he
held to an inspection the smell, I tell you anonymous, uh,

(01:10:11):
paint in the bath, Jeff Marcus, welcome, Jeff, that's your
cue to talk.

Speaker 13 (01:10:21):
Yeah, sorry right here.

Speaker 4 (01:10:23):
Yeah, this is just the only the only time I've
ever had any booths. I was traveling from town to
why He Beach. We were building a house out there,
and I just gone, I just got out of caddy
caddy and came around the corner and there was a
whole heap of food tackers on the road, and I

(01:10:47):
couldn't swear to miss them, otherwise I would have had
a car coming the out of the way, and I
just had to keep going. I was probably doing about
one hundred and twenty clucks because I was running a
butt like getting to work. It was one Saturday morning anyway,
bomb bomb, bom bom bomb, and I thought, oh christ,
I wasn't far out from the job. And I just

(01:11:11):
pulled into the house. But we were building and a
guy came out and he's laughing like hell, and I
said to him, what's the joke? And he said, did
you bring a couple of passengers with you, Jeff? And
then I said, I don't think so, mate. And when
I got out, there were two bowkackers hanging out of
the grill.

Speaker 2 (01:11:34):
Alive or dead? No, no, dead, mate, Okay, said story Colin.

Speaker 14 (01:11:41):
Hello Teah a Marcus. Yeah, same here. Fifty oddears driving
trucks on.

Speaker 15 (01:11:50):
Catsts.

Speaker 14 (01:11:51):
Sheep, kangaroo, see you work to my mind was in
my bill years. I actually took out a peasant. He
flew across the road in front of me, hit the
windscreen and dropped down and he got stuck behind the
windscreen and the stone guard and I was able to
reach around and grab him and bring him into the

(01:12:13):
cab and he was actually still alive. So I wrapped
him up in a pulled over obviously, wrapped him up
in a blanket and thought, oh, he might come right,
but he didn't. Well I've still got that desent. I
took him to a taxi him and.

Speaker 5 (01:12:26):
Something for me.

Speaker 2 (01:12:32):
Why would you get him stuffed and start? I suppose
it was your I mean, it wasn't exactly your your
marksmanship or was it.

Speaker 9 (01:12:41):
No, I don't know.

Speaker 14 (01:12:41):
Well, he didn't have any bought anything that was such
a beautiful bird, but that would have been He must
have been close to forty years ago and he's still
seens up on the top of looking quite proud.

Speaker 2 (01:12:53):
So that's amazing what it cost to taxi do me
if in the day?

Speaker 14 (01:12:58):
Oh god, I can't remember. It's done with it made
why Paul Blackley. Yeah, he was based on touring him
bed of the day. But that was that was really cool.
And yeah, every now and again I bring it down
and sticking around the corner of the doorway of the
dog just to be out here as a bloody art attack.

Speaker 9 (01:13:16):
But he sees him.

Speaker 15 (01:13:18):
I'll tell you something.

Speaker 2 (01:13:19):
I'll tell you something about stuff. Birds They last, well
don't they?

Speaker 14 (01:13:23):
Oh yeah, I mean he hasn't lost any of his lusties.
He there's a still bright, beautiful, fluid hat sort of stuff.
But I almost took out and well I did take
out another one just a couple of years ago. I
saw him fly from the from the right hand side,
and luckily I had the driver's window wound up because
the things you had me right in the driver's window,

(01:13:46):
and you know, if i'd had the window that any
woe had come out and taken my head off. But
I had two turkeys about three weeks ago, but that
was immediate. Both of those throw off the side of
the road.

Speaker 2 (01:14:02):
Where were Where were the turkeys on the side of
the road.

Speaker 14 (01:14:05):
Column little place called Marthew which is between Tiquity and Tamaranui.

Speaker 2 (01:14:11):
Oh yeah, okay, understand, yep, yep, but that feels like
Turkey country.

Speaker 14 (01:14:19):
For some looks across there. He goes so much for
a defeasive driving.

Speaker 2 (01:14:25):
Nice to talk, calm, thanks for that. Ten to nine,
nine to ten, nine to nine, ten to ten, nine
to ten, got there in the end, loving the paint check.
Keep it up. Sophie Marcus you're very rude talking to
the man about no one wasn't rude. You got to
move on the conversation. Clearly, the guy's got to move
forward in life. Beth has gone. There's new things come along.

(01:14:48):
You know, things are good for a while. But let's
not say it's sad. There's not much hype about something anymore.
Any thought it was in Melbourne. It's done, it's dash.
You know, there's new things. Formula one is big again
and the gizz is big and whatever he rides in yeah,

(01:15:08):
it's cyclic. Texas says the bathist guy is a fossil.
People used to die on the old production cars. The
racing is far safe, for faster and more exciting now,
big bathist fan, this guy. The place is in New
South Wales, nowhere m Albourne. Marcus can't really stand that

(01:15:30):
bathist chat is makeup just for girls. Cheers. James went
to get something under my hobbies ute. Thirty minutes after
we got home. Strange noises from the carport. Not a
lingering hitchoker was a magpie had broken the grin and
tightly wedged between that and the radiator. Oh, by the way,
this is my great fear of crypto. North Korean hackers

(01:15:54):
have stolen two billion dollars in crypto and twenty twenty five,
surpassing all past thefts. Over thirty cryptocurrency heists by North
Koreas heckers reported in twenty twenty five. That's with three

(01:16:17):
months in the year still remaining. So yes, I just
wonder how safe it is. But you know, that's and
I've always had those concerns. I mean, for most people
who made a fortune, they they don't need those concerns.
But yeah, I guess, yeah, just putting it out there.

(01:16:40):
Ten oh seven, greetings and welcome with you till twelve tonight.
How are you going? Birds strike? Hitting birds on the road,
We've all done it. Never feel good?

Speaker 14 (01:16:48):
Do you?

Speaker 2 (01:16:50):
Never know what to say about that? With birds Canada geese,
But yeah, image if they come through you, if you
had a convertible, you'd be in trouble, wouldn't you. You
might have stories about that, also getting pinked out of
the bath. Something you might want to mention. Two about
this spurred, spurred, spurred strike on this train. I've got

(01:17:11):
six or seven TEXTI to me ducks on my wall.
Thank you Marcus hearing the other list asking from meet
and greet. I'd be keen if you were too. Cheers Maggie.
I'm about to paint and sand wooden frame internal windows
and wonderful. I should use painter's tape to keep paint
off the windows and should just slightly paint onto the window.

(01:17:37):
Get in touched, Marcus till twelve Marcus, I'd rather watch
the Wiggles, bit Red Car drive Bathurst and the current drivers. Wow, Marcus,
I'm a painter by trade. Best solution I can think
off of the spilt paint of the bath is getting
a bit of bean brine always does the trick.

Speaker 6 (01:17:57):
Matt.

Speaker 2 (01:17:58):
I've never heard of that. I've never heard of bean
brain and I'm pretty freaked out by that. What's bean Brian?

(01:18:21):
Does it geta does bean Brian remove paint?

Speaker 5 (01:18:25):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:18:26):
I think that's pretty interesting. Whether I've googled bean Brian
removed pain, not paint? What anyone on about bean Brian?
That's in my wheelhouse tonight. A lot of people discussing
the merits of Bathurst. Seems a lot of people are

(01:18:48):
triggered by that's just not what it once was. That's
my take on it. You might want to say something else,
about that oh wait time of eighty ten eightyan nineteen
nine to the text oh get in touch, oh eight

(01:19:18):
hundred eighty today in nineteen nine dis Garretts Marcus welcome, Oh.

Speaker 16 (01:19:22):
Good I yeah, I'm just saying I was had a
brand new Volkswagen van the company one years ago used
to to service run from the Hastings to Danny every
day and back and around the back of the White
Power Why pack around. Actually there was a guy that
used to bread turkeys, see unless the big fat turkeys,

(01:19:46):
and I saw these turkeys in the paddock and they
all flew across in front of me about one hundred
meters away. There was an old guide didn't make it.
He was the last in the queue, and we collided
in the middle of the road, right at the height
of the steering wheel, and both windows mashed. They shattered,
the big Volkswagen sign on the front of the end shattered,

(01:20:09):
and there was feathers in the air for about ten minutes.
When I picked him up, he was just a big
bag of shattered and support pig. Boy, they are heavy bird.
When you hit him at seventy or eighty case whatever speed.

Speaker 2 (01:20:25):
Note more than did the broken did the broken windscreen
remain intact.

Speaker 16 (01:20:31):
No, it shattered and well I know I had to
push it out to get hold You didn't have glass.

Speaker 2 (01:20:36):
You didn't have glass on you at all. It's kind
of it was held.

Speaker 16 (01:20:38):
Again, but yeah, it did hold together here. But the
boy there were big heavy bird. He must have weighed
probably seven to ten KOs. He was quite heavy.

Speaker 6 (01:20:50):
What do you do?

Speaker 5 (01:20:50):
What do you do with that?

Speaker 16 (01:20:52):
I put it in the back of the van and
drove up the driveway to the guy and showed him,
and he took one look at me in the wonder
of the birds. Them to break.

Speaker 2 (01:21:03):
You can't really finish your turkeys in, can you.

Speaker 4 (01:21:07):
No?

Speaker 16 (01:21:08):
He used to grow to me for Christmas. I those
there must have been twenty or thirty in the flock,
poor thing.

Speaker 5 (01:21:16):
What year was What year was this?

Speaker 2 (01:21:18):
Gary?

Speaker 16 (01:21:19):
Nineteen sir? Yeah, nineteen seventeen, nine eighty.

Speaker 2 (01:21:25):
But it wasn't a Coombe van, was it.

Speaker 16 (01:21:27):
It was a Comby. It was the model with the
two windscreens.

Speaker 2 (01:21:32):
It's too yes, the screen.

Speaker 16 (01:21:34):
The older model, good little van too, was well worth it.

Speaker 2 (01:21:39):
But now very nice to talk. Thank you. Thirteen past ten.
If you want to talk about birds or spilling paint,
or changing the acidity of your water tank. These are
all good topics for us. Get in touch, oh e
one hundred and eighty to any Marcus till midnight. If
there's anything different that you want to talk about. I

(01:22:01):
can handle that tonight. We are broad with what we
can talk about tonight. Oh wait, one hundred eighty eight
to text. There's other stuff that you want to mix it.
Mix it up with good. I think I can handle that.
Do your Christmas cake too. You're running out of time, guys,

(01:22:21):
eleven weeks till Christmas. Now you're going to be working
on your mutton Ham I reckon. So that's right if
you want to talk on it. That's the kind of
the plan for tonight. There might be other stuff coming up,
don't know what, but be in touch if you want

(01:22:42):
to talk anything else that to be hearing from your
people heading birds and planes or cars, spilling paint in
the bath, and changing the acidity of your water Take
the other major topics. And when did they start all
that breathing of sports teams? Who was the first person

(01:23:04):
to do that? There'll be a strong maybe I should
listen to sports podcasts one day. I'll tell you what
podcasts I listened to. You'll be surprised there's one I
listened to. Not going to confess it on any though

(01:23:25):
one day I might, Marcus Liam here. I don't believe
the Breen Brian Bean Brian thing. What a load of
rubbish at the gym? Currently? Should I get a tattoo
of my pet cat whiskers?

Speaker 6 (01:23:42):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:23:47):
What is bean? Brian Darwin? This is Marcus Welcome.

Speaker 15 (01:23:54):
Evening, Marcus. I was listening to your show and I
haven't had any birds.

Speaker 8 (01:24:00):
Hit me, but I had a bit of a giggle
because I thought birds and the bees. I had a
couple of wasps and through window when I was in
the fresh air driving probably eighty ninety k's up north,
and these two wasps came in and actually hit me
with a good stud, which was fine, but then I

(01:24:21):
looked down and it pretty much knocked them out. But
I could see them squirming in my lap wearing shorts,
and I was quite horrified, like you know, swerving in
your shorts, getting down near where your shorts end. I
just thought i'd give you a call.

Speaker 2 (01:24:43):
I guess we're here for people with swarms of bees.
Why do truck drivers wear shorts?

Speaker 8 (01:24:51):
I don't know a bit of fresh air when you're
out in the countryside.

Speaker 5 (01:24:54):
I guess yeah, okay.

Speaker 2 (01:24:55):
I've often wondered that, Darren, thank you. Hitting things in cars?
Are things hitting you in cars? Nothing stays the same,
not even Barethurst. It's called progress, but sometimes we want
the blame electric cars. Don't like that they raced they
used to, but then I don't race like I used to.
It's great of a topic that the guys cover the
phone do because they have great storytelling. I don't hanow

(01:25:16):
we wow Marcus. I wonder if I could squirm in
that callers lap instead. He sounds very handsome, brilliant, Michael,
It's Marcus.

Speaker 12 (01:25:29):
Welcome, Hi Marcus. Yeah, I don't really. I listened to
your life and go to sleep, but I tuned in
just before listening to the amount of money that people
have had raided from their crip accountcy bitcoin and so on. Interesting.
I don't know if there's a topic that you wish

(01:25:49):
to want to talk about, but I can share an
experience with you because in two twenty my wife and
I purchased around about sixteen thousand dollars worth of cryp
acountcy bitcoins. We purchased around ten thousand and coin and
six thousand and utherium and I and behold. When we

(01:26:12):
decided to cash some of it in to purchase downside
to a house, we found that our ten house in
fut of bitcoin had been stolen. Yeah, so I heard.

Speaker 2 (01:26:27):
Was it a had you gone through a brokerage that
the qualify?

Speaker 12 (01:26:30):
Yeah, yeah, you're right. No, So what we did is
actually my son has a business. Right I won't I'm
not going to advertise this business online because it's not appropriate.
But we had what we thought was a secure vault
within our laptop, right our computer system, and what happened

(01:26:53):
and this is probably just some advice for anybody else
listening spyware. Okay, so we were hacked. They didn't get
the yetherium, they got the bitcoin. We're actually amazed that
we didn't lose a whole lot. And I mean it's
such a small amount in comparison to some people who
have lost a hell of.

Speaker 5 (01:27:11):
Lot of money.

Speaker 12 (01:27:12):
So we lost at tenth we lost at that time,
there was no way we could get it back. Every
attempt was made through the various the broken here to
find it, but no, we the spy where that malware
they call it that had hacked our laptop, our computer

(01:27:34):
through whatever smart way they do it stolen and that
was gone, no sign of it, no recovery.

Speaker 6 (01:27:43):
So that was the end of it.

Speaker 12 (01:27:44):
And we then decide, well, we took advice because we
invest in we've invested in cryptocurrency in a big way.
So we decided that that was it, that was gone.
We were going to invest another lot, but actually take precautions.

(01:28:04):
And this is just to anybody were listening. We all
know that our laptop's are PCs whatever can be packed.
But we got what was called a treasure. Now, our
treasure is a vault which is separate from the laptop.
It's like a hard drive, all right. You purchased them

(01:28:25):
for about three hundred dollars and we purchased a treasure
hard drive unit, which and I'll tell you what we did.
We invested one hundred thousand dollars in bitcoin only one year.
One year ago when the price dropped off thanks to

(01:28:45):
Trump and all the goings on in the States and
New Zealand, dollars dropped right down to basically one was
it one hundred and forty two thousand dollars from when
it was at a high and we bought a treasure

(01:29:06):
from overseas and we plugged it in and we did
all the necessaries to take the vault away from our
laptop to a separate hard drive unit. And that's the trick,
because out there there are those who are crafty enough

(01:29:30):
to be able to get in to hack. Right, we'll
just use the word to hack your laptop or PC
or whatever. You have the device at home. So by
having a separate unit, a treasure or other types of
independent separate units which you cod we're secure now. Just

(01:29:55):
by the way, one hundred and forty two thousand miles
worth two hundred and ten thousand dollars or thereabouts. You know,
it differs back and forth, and we have all some
vested in a different coin, which we still make sure
that is separated and nobody can hack our laptop.

Speaker 2 (01:30:12):
What's your what's your investment strategy? When do you cash?

Speaker 12 (01:30:18):
Yeah? Well we ducked. It's a long term, all right,
So we are in for a long term. I mean
we originally purchased.

Speaker 2 (01:30:27):
Are you in for twenty years or forty years?

Speaker 12 (01:30:29):
Yeah? You're right, twenty years? Okay, twenty years. We could
play with it if we wanted to, but it's a
long term investment strategies. Now, all I can say is
when we brought it into just prior to COVID and
around about twenty four thousand dollars coin. We sold it

(01:30:53):
only last year in we made four hundred percent.

Speaker 2 (01:30:58):
And how much would the stuff that you got stolen,
that gets stolen from you.

Speaker 6 (01:31:02):
How much?

Speaker 2 (01:31:02):
How much would that be with you? How much would
that be worth?

Speaker 5 (01:31:05):
Now?

Speaker 12 (01:31:06):
Yeah, that's the sort of subject we don't talk about anymore.
Because it's sixteen to twenty four thousand for bitcoin today,
two hundred of them ten thousand or thereabouts.

Speaker 2 (01:31:23):
It's quite a thift. Thanks Michael. I bet the North
Korean government is keeping hold of theirs, not cashing. I
suppose I need it, probably run their country twenty five
past ten, ten to twenty five. How are you welcome?
Remember to boil your water in Centralo tiger Opa, Omerco
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty here to the end
of very bitter end, because that's my job. And we

(01:31:45):
love that. On the Love a Thursday, because Friday's coming,
oh eight to undreds, you know the rest Marcus till midnight.
We've looked at love from both sides, Dougie, it's Marcus.
Good evening and welcome.

Speaker 6 (01:32:01):
So Marcus, look, I'm not bringing with respect to the subjects,
but it's something that's been close to my heart for
the last couple of weeks, and that's the network. I
just wanted to bring up a point that hasn't that
hasn't been talked about or surface, but I feel that
it's a really vital part of the whole thing, and

(01:32:25):
that is that if the basis of the five letters
that were forwarded to Nepble New Zealand that were then
handed over to the New Zealand Netball Players Association for
them to look at five weeks ago, it was the

(01:32:48):
reason for Jenny Wiley to stand nrolling down in the
first premise and then at four o'clock on Friday afternoon,
just gone last week New Zealand, New Zealand Nipple Players
Association told the five players to withdraw the letters from

(01:33:14):
the table on the basis that what they had forded
to Jenny why would not back up for the complaints
that they made. Now, at five o'clock Friday night, Jenny
Whyley comes on and makes some news release to say
to the whole of New Zealand that she could not

(01:33:38):
reach a point where there was an agreement, knowing full
well that New Zealand Players Association had just told her
that there was no basis to the letters.

Speaker 2 (01:33:51):
For the.

Speaker 6 (01:33:54):
Procedures that she's taken and made to be standing up
in a court or anything like that. Now, if if
that was the case, you would think that Jenny Wiley
had a obligation then to reinstate Dan Noling total. But

(01:34:20):
she didn't. And the reason why she didn't was because
no Ling, and I can tell you this because I'm
close to the family. No Ling had had a case
where in Zilla Nepple, Wiley and winner A conspired between
themselves for nine months and did not follow their legal

(01:34:45):
process to do what You've.

Speaker 2 (01:34:47):
Got to be careful if you're making allegations of people
doing things a lot. This is here saying I'm not gonna.
I'm not gonna. I'm not going to entertain that because
I can't. But if I can, I'm not.

Speaker 6 (01:34:59):
I'm not asking you. I'm not asking you to.

Speaker 2 (01:35:01):
I'm not I'm not going to let you broadcast that
either because their allegations that are heresay because you weren't there.
But what as a greater point I want to say
is that all these things that happened with coaches, because
we saw it with the women's football coach and stuff
like that, they just disappeared and we never get any answers.
And all it means is as followers of the sport,

(01:35:22):
we turn off. I couldn't care less about netball because
all this stuff, I just I have got no idea
what's going on. I don't know if it's unjust, I
don't know if it's wrong, but you know, it just
it killed sports.

Speaker 6 (01:35:35):
I look, you're dere right, and you know you've got
the biggest the biggest membership in New Zealand in the
history of sport is netball, right, the biggest membership. And
you would have thought that a CEO and a general

(01:35:58):
manager would have thought about what they were doing before
they acted and did what they did. Look, I wouldn't
myself and I wouldn't risk the story if I didn't
know what I was talking about. I can tell you.

Speaker 2 (01:36:14):
But but Douggie, you just got some guy that's rung
up and I can't. I can't have that has been
legally binding because you're just you know, I don't know
who you are. If you're pretending, so I've got to
cover my back as well. But look, I appreciate your
passion as well, Dougie. And look, as I say, maybe
someone can tell me. I just can't make head nor
tell of that story drives me crazy because it's bad
for the sport, talking about birds striking all its forms.

(01:36:39):
Change in the acidity of your water and your water
tank if you're on tank water, otherwise it'll kind of
stain and strip. That's two of the topics for tonight.
As far as the netbearers, I say, I've got no
idea what's going on? And funny enough, a lot of
people ask me, a lot of people have ever interest
as I've got no idea. Seems like a beloved coach

(01:37:01):
that's no longer in that job. But the thing that
drives me crazy is that with aught well so far,
if history is any president, the situation with these coaches,
you never get any clarity, never get any clarity about
why they've been They just you know, you never know
the reasons that beloved and successful people coaching teams are

(01:37:22):
suddenly no longer there in sports management, I really don't understand.
But yeah, and I think probably a part of that
is because we haven't got the press we once had.
I don't know if that's true, but yeah, I mean
I'm not obsessed with the story. But every time I've
tried to work out what's going on and tried to

(01:37:45):
read some articles, I've never had any sense of it.
It's what we are on about tonight. It's also very
hard for us in this position to know what's going on.
I know who's been treated wrong and rightly, because as
I say, we've got no idea. There's been no great
what I can see, there's been no great expository articles
on the whole situation. But Dougie's talking a lot about netball.

(01:38:13):
I see it as a sport that's not growing. I
see as a sport that probably five countries in the
world play there any good and that would be in
New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, England and Jamaica. And I
think anyone with a real talent will be into basketball
as soon as they can because they get the scholarships
the colleges and the States. And I think basketball is

(01:38:35):
a fast growing game. I don't think netballers. Don't think
Neople's ever going to become a global game. But these
things certainly don't help because it makes us look as
the whole thing's a bit of a shammozzle because we're
going into the trans Testament Cup or whatever it is.
I understand with a temporary coach. That's just my take.

(01:38:56):
I don't know what the netball numbers are doing. Is
in they presume they're down. I mean, I know that's
still a very much played game, but I'm looking at
the growth. But basketball, the basketball is the behemoth at
the moment. Everyonets to play basketball. Can't find the courts.
You're looking at the graph. We'll had a graph, but

(01:39:19):
they I've got a log and to see it properly.
That's all right. By the way, someone might want to
mention Bathurst as well. I'm a slightly interested in Bathurst.
But yeah, I just think even from the outside and
looking in for the media, you can see every year
it kind of has less and less bars. That's my take.

(01:39:39):
Do get in touch. Hey Marcus, what do you think
about you're in hockey. I think it's been going all right.
I want your opinion. I don't know how hockey's managed
to sustain itself. Every time I see any hockey around
the world. There's no one there, so I can't quite
work out what the income streams. So I can't imagine
people get Sky TV to watch the hockey. It just
seems to actually exist on kind of X players individual agress.

Speaker 10 (01:40:05):
Is that right?

Speaker 2 (01:40:07):
That's what it seems like to me. Do get in
touch if you want to talk. As I say, all
the lines are free twenty three to eleven. There's something
different you want to mention. I'm all in on everything tonight.
Feel free to get involved. But birds strike mainly, and
birds strike on cars not good. Can do a lot

(01:40:28):
of damage, load to the ground, hit its speed. You
want to had a swarm of bees in their car
or truck, that would be of interest to me. Give
us a call if you want to be involved in
the show here till twelve oh, eight hundred and eighty
ten eighty nine, two ticks. You want to be part
of it now. If there's other topics you want to

(01:40:51):
chuck into the mix, I think we can handle that
and feel free. I hope those people got into their
holiday in Fiji. Pretty bad start to a holiday where
that bird strike. So I suppose I'll get another flight tomorrow.
They'll spend some time for that plane. I don't wouldn't
imagine that Fiji Airlines would have many planes, would they
will be half a dozen? Surprised that actually they go

(01:41:13):
to christ Church. I was thinking, gee, are they there?
Great text, Marcus. Are camels even? Are camels even real?
Never seen one? I actually have been camel riding. That's right,
it's going to say, me too, have ridden a camel.
Very strange getting on them when they stand up, because
it's like you think, well they're at the top. You think,
hang on, that's high, and there's even one more stage.

(01:41:37):
You go up in three stages, just concerting. Hello, Sam,
this is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 25 (01:41:43):
So Marcus, now I've climbed out of bed to tell
you the story. I normally like to listen to you
until I drop off to sleep. So this was about
in the nineteen eighties. So I had a Volkswagen a
v dub and we'd gone surfing up north and we
were coming back and the sun had set, so it
was dark and it was adverse roads north of Welshmen

(01:42:06):
and so I was driving and I had a friend
who was in the passenger seat, and there was a
guy in the back seat leaning forward. So the three
of us were sort of all close together looking out
the front window, and so we were driving along round
about eighty k's and on the dirt roads, and all
of a sudden, the guy in the back seat and

(01:42:26):
was behind between us, he hit cow, and just as
he said it, I saw it and it was sort
of side on to us, so I swerved it around him.
It all happened really quick. I swerved around him and
the cow's jaw hit the hub of my vaults rack
him and when we got the next day, I had

(01:42:47):
the dent in the wheel hub where his jaw had
hit the car.

Speaker 16 (01:42:52):
Wow.

Speaker 25 (01:42:54):
Now, if I'm if the guy behind me hadn't seen
the cow, because I didn't. I saw it split second
after he told me, and I managed to swerve. But
the cow would have just gone straight into the bonnet
of the v dub and probably just crushed us instantly.
So it was quite miraculous. But the benfers in the
hub of the world for as long as I had

(01:43:15):
the car, and it always brought back the memory.

Speaker 2 (01:43:18):
Did the cow get knocked over?

Speaker 25 (01:43:21):
No, because he just hit the jawer and we didn't stop,
but we could see the cow in the headlights and
you know Volkswings had very dim headlights, so it all
happened so quick. As a cow came into the division
of the headlights, I swerved and we just saw his
jawer strike the wheel hub. You know, it was all instantaneous,

(01:43:44):
and so I think the poor cow probably lost his
jaw or his nose or whatever.

Speaker 2 (01:43:49):
A bad place for cow to be on the middle
of a road.

Speaker 25 (01:43:52):
Yeah, and it was nighttime, but it was farm land,
you know, I was up north of Welsford, and he
must have just stumbled through the fenses or something.

Speaker 16 (01:43:59):
So there you go.

Speaker 2 (01:44:01):
Nice story, Sam. By the way, Sam Hallngson normally take
you to get to.

Speaker 13 (01:44:03):
Sleep listen to you or maybe an hour hour.

Speaker 2 (01:44:10):
Brilliant that's the word it should be. Thank you, Sandra Marcus.
Good evening, because I.

Speaker 26 (01:44:15):
Have a funny story to tell you about a bee
coming into our car when we're driving on the road. Well,
I just we're just kind of my Hamburgers and riding
on the road. B slides in the car just come
to the perfect night. So I'm having pulled up so fast.
I held a hamburger, but the cart and the milk
shaped between the the need took the right backwards into

(01:44:39):
my crutch of my.

Speaker 3 (01:44:43):
You.

Speaker 12 (01:44:44):
I know you can.

Speaker 26 (01:44:48):
I don't know who cursed him more about the bee
or the or the milk shape that took back between
my legs and I was going.

Speaker 13 (01:44:57):
To have to be know the milk up the car?

Speaker 2 (01:45:00):
Wow, what's the moral of that?

Speaker 26 (01:45:04):
Well, I should shaped between the needs. But then again
I see a car because it was in my car.

Speaker 2 (01:45:14):
Yeah, okay, nice to hear from me starting to thank you.
Fifteen away from eleven A very good text here, Marcus.
Would you rather go to jail for three years or
go to jail for as long as it takes you
to eat through a wooden door? You can have sources
to help you. Are you put to eat through wooden
door quite quickly? I think the wooden door you've eaten
through within a month. Although I don't think that's a

(01:45:39):
I don't think that's an example that's going to happen
in real life with the current sentencing. But still I
can be there for that. Marcus. You should create a
lullaby for those who fall asleep listening to your program.
Pat It's not a bad idea, not a very good singer.
There'd be my trouble for that one, but thank you.

(01:46:01):
Get in touch Hitdle twelve eight hundred and eighty ten
ninety to text Marcus will noll In and the loss
of her job or sacking of her job have any
effect on her damehood. She's a dame. Why don't you
become a dam year there for life unless you do
something criminal? And I don't think she's been sacked as
a coach. I just think that it's ongoing. There's a

(01:46:23):
temporary coach in the meantime. She still could be coaching
for the Calm Games. That is my understanding. What happens
I don't know. But the other thing, not only I
don't know what's going to happen, but I have no
idea that we'll ever know what's happened because it always happens.
There's always this stuff around sports and coaches and management

(01:46:44):
and you never get any clarity. And the sport fans
deserve it because why would you support a team if
you don't know what's going on. You don't get that
in the NRL, do you, Because they've got the reporters
finding out what's going on, explaining it. It's all above board,
it's all extremely transparent and it makes for a much
better spectacle, a better experience, because because people know, they're

(01:47:09):
not kept in the dark. When the fans of your lifeblood,
they will keep this. They're the ones that buy the tickets.
They deserve to know exactly what's going on. That's the
area that leads to confusion for me. Ten away from
eleven birds strike, tonight has flowing. I don't know why
some nights flow and some nights don't fly. Anyho, romance

(01:47:33):
on again tonight. It is Tomorrow's probably the last day
to vote in your local body elections. You need to
do that. The Women's One Day International World covers on
in Indian and trelank We play our third match against
Bangladesh tomorrow night at ten thirty. Also tomorrow night at

(01:47:53):
ten pm, the Nobel Peace Prize will be announced. Yes,
and by the way, the teachers are on strike too.
I heard when kids are on stick. I got the
know the Yeah, there's some new days with that.

Speaker 4 (01:48:14):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:48:18):
Fiji Airways flies to twenty five international and eleven domestic destinations,
serving major hubs Australians, United States, Canada, Pan Hong Kong
and Singapore. Thanks for that, granny. How many planes have
they got that's what I'd be curious to know one

(01:48:39):
less after today for the meantime, fourteen aircrafts aircraft, fourteen
aircraft plural. I think it's safe to say if you
want to get in touch, that's what we're about tonight. Birds.
Do anyone go and watch that plane coming by the way,

(01:48:59):
Like from some of the footage, there was quite a
big crowd, which is kind of a weird thing to
go and watch a plane because you think it might crash.
And what that's like when there was that plane came
from Queenstown and got bird strike and there was flames
that got diverted to in Vicago. I went along there,
there's a big crowd. It's kind of surprised how many

(01:49:20):
people tuned up and they I thought, well, what have
they turned up for? Can't answer that. I suppose there's
a chance to see news as it happens. Now, come on,
people who want to be a part of the show.
There's something different you want to mention. Good get in touch, Oh,

(01:49:42):
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty, there's other stuff you
want to mention some of the other topics that probably
are about tonight. In England, they're trying to rejuvenate the economy,
and it's quite a good idea this. The Labor government
have allowed pubs to stay open until the early hours

(01:50:04):
because of the ailing hospitality sector. It's a great idea,
isn't it. I think you once thought it was sort
of arcane when pubs closed at ten in the UK.
So they're going to be open longer because local councils
could decide opening hours. But that's no longer. Although the

(01:50:24):
alcohol lobby are calling it a charter for chaos, this
is probably the right thing to do. So that's what's happening.
I think pubs are in a bad state of there.
A lot of them are going broke. A lot of
those boutique breweries are going broke too, So that's happening

(01:50:47):
in the UK. You might want to mention that I
kin'd of means to be aping too late. Oh there's
the ongoing story about Freedom campening Queenstown that never ends.
There's a document to be about to start on Victoria Beckham,

(01:51:09):
whom my veloys thought was the least interesting of the
spice girls. By the way, there's an article about the
New Zealand who has the world's longest name, and I
read that article. He's got twy three hundred and ten
middle names. But what is staggering about that article by

(01:51:32):
Karnama Urdu is the whole article. They don't ask him
if he knows what his names are. Wouldn't that be
the obvious question to see if he remembered all those names.
By the way, he read the Goodness Book of Records,
and that was the only world record he thought he

(01:51:52):
could get. He thought about the greatest height difference in
a married couple, but he's six' two and that didn't
work for. Him but, yeah no way to say do
you remember all your? Names was frustrated to read that
and hear that that wasn't. Asked i've just reread the

(01:52:16):
article again to said to make Sure i'm right on that.
One but, yes it's pretty. Long it's like four five
six tightly type pages of. Text they are all his, Names.

(01:52:36):
MARCUS i study, economics and wouldn't opening for longer be
bad because your cost of production would be. INCREASED i
think what happens here is everyone just. Drinks then about
ten o'clock they go to the off license and kind of, yeah,
yeah or private, clubs SO i think probably you'd sell
more for. Longer, marcus you are so, right Read Dame.

(01:53:00):
NOLIN i agree with what you said about fans of.
Netball look at the carry on with The All blacks Coach.
Foster he didn't know whether he was coming or going
with his. Job that's. RIGHT i think that's one of
the Reasons i've had hard to watch The All becks this.
Year they's just you lose the love of them because
you're not. Included you feel separate from what's going on

(01:53:22):
with all those couching. Dramas marcus kind of struggling to
vote for A willington Mayor do you know any of them? Personally,
NO i. Don't someone, says glad those boutique brewings are going,
broke might get back to something which tastes like.

Speaker 15 (01:53:40):
Beer.

Speaker 2 (01:53:42):
Marcus way back in ninety six And oe And turkey

Speaker 3 (01:55:00):
If, POSSIBLE ord like to change subject And i'd like
to talk about the crisis that the grayhound racing industries.

Speaker 2 (01:55:06):
Face, sure where are we with? That when's the last
race due to happen.

Speaker 3 (01:55:10):

You as Of july thirty first next, year there's going
to be around thirteen hundred people lose their, jobs and
with what's going on in the economy Of New zealand

(01:55:33):
job market at the, MOMENT i would imagine it would
be the biggest job loss in the history Of New.
ZEALAND i understand the welfare side of, things But i've
been in the industry for thirty. Years we've been hung
out to.

Speaker 6 (01:55:54):
DRY i.

Speaker 3 (01:55:54):
UNDERSTAND i know there were seventeen dogs euthanized In New
zealand last year and no one wants to see that ever.
Happen how many horses are over twenty both codes and
the worst thing for me at the moment is that
just it's a right risen in the last couple of

(01:56:14):
weeks that En, tame which is the tab are going
to still be able to Board beaman two hundred greyhound
racers From australia even though our industry and workers will
not have a. Job do you actually think that is
fear like the.

Speaker 2 (01:56:36):
Government it's rubbing salt into the, wound isn't, It and they're, Saying,
okay we approve.

Speaker 3 (01:56:40):
It you, know had to thirteen hundred people who a
lot of these people have got families of young, children
all of a sudden go out and find. Jobs and
then they happen to turn THE tv on and Mister peters, says,
oh you greyhound people can go out and find another job.
Somewhere how long have you been doing? Radio would it

(01:57:03):
be the biggest job loss in any business or industry
in the history Of New. Zealand i'm just.

Speaker 2 (01:57:13):
Trying to think when some of those freezing big freezing
works closed thirteen hundred. People you, Know, gary why was
there not more success with legal avenues BECAUSE i thought
you'd surely get that over to what happened with?

Speaker 3 (01:57:28):
That If i'm allowed to tell you the, truth this
is what's. Happened and if anyone wants to, crucify crucify for.
Me but What i'm about to, say geo blocking was
allowed the tav to only Have New zealand people bet
On New zealand, racing but they can bet On australian,

(01:57:48):
racing but they must go through end. Tame and the
only way that The Green party are the only way
the government could get it through was all the parties
had to. Agree and the only way The greenees would
agree is if greyhound racing. Went it's nothing to do
with the fact seventeen ogs got killed In New. Zealand
it's to appease in, pain which was the tav The

(01:58:12):
greens and the other.

Speaker 13 (01:58:13):
Parties just so.

Speaker 2 (01:58:16):
What's the game For? Retaine they, monopoly they get they.

Speaker 3 (01:58:22):
Get the all a be all the revenue and unfortunately
the other two CODES a thoroughbreeds in.

Speaker 2 (01:58:27):
That but hang hang, On, gary if the government wanted
to do a deal With, intain they wouldn't need The
greens for support of. That they could do it without The.

Speaker 3 (01:58:37):
Greens, no they had to have The greens on. Board
that they Had, NO i don't have the Green.

Speaker 2 (01:58:42):
They wouldn't have had to for the. Numbers but because
it'd be there'd be a majority within z BECAUSE i
know that labor was in favor of the band as.
Well weren't they?

Speaker 3 (01:58:51):
All all The greenies have been. Asked The greens have
been out after us for a long.

Speaker 2 (01:58:56):
Time but wasn't there wasn't there Some high court Or
supreme court channel you go.

Speaker 3 (01:59:03):
Through we're still. Going we're going back to court In
november and it's it's already cost us four hundred thousand
dollars of n g gra's. Money they're trying to seize
THE rs sets of fifteen million. Dollars and you know
what for people that the general public out, there, well

(01:59:24):
do they do they actually want all these people to
lose their?

Speaker 2 (01:59:28):
Job, WELL i mean the thing is a lot of
people don't like doal gum. Racing but when you look at,
it when you look at if you think they using
animals for entertainment is, cruel then it's hypocritical to allow
horse racing and rodeo's and all sorts of other. Stuff
so it doesn't it doesn't look like good law to
me because it doesn't seem to be fair. Law it
seems to be tagging. One it seems to be targeting
one group because they're less, powerful and it seems like

(01:59:50):
a bit of a hobbyist group in A South island.

Speaker 3 (01:59:52):
Group do you think it's fear that the government allows
two hundred races From australia to come in each week
each week so so income can still make their.

Speaker 2 (02:00:03):
Money, YEAH i don't Got, YEAH i look at. IT
i don't. KNOW i, MEAN i think probably the whole
betting world is pretty wobbly at the. MOMENT i know
that there's been a huge worldwide explosion of sports. Betting
it was always a legal In america and most states.
Are now that's blossom there and it's blossom In New.
Zealand AND i think sports betting is going to cause huge.

(02:00:24):
Harm there's an explosion of, it AND i think probably
the old days were just the, races the dogs and
the horses was probably A there was probably less out
there and they weren't targeting young, PEOPLE i mean for
betting like they're doing.

Speaker 12 (02:00:38):
Now.

Speaker 2 (02:00:40):
YEAH i think we've got huge problems with gambling in this.
Country and because they're target they're. Targeting every time you
turn on the rugby there's is he dad saying about.
This you can bet on, this so you can bet on,
that and it does target vulnerable.

Speaker 3 (02:00:53):
People did you happen to Catch Petty gare's, Program, Marcus
you were probably.

Speaker 2 (02:00:58):
WORKING i was, Working BUT i see it's ABOUT i
see there were some guys In balaclava's students AT i
Targer uni talking about. Gambling.

Speaker 3 (02:01:06):
No did you hit on the dogs being euthanized In
auckland at the by THE. Spca did you happen to catch?

Speaker 6 (02:01:12):
Them?

Speaker 23 (02:01:13):
NO i.

Speaker 2 (02:01:13):
Didn't there's like a lot of. Dogs it happened.

Speaker 3 (02:01:16):
Thousand and six and forty nine In auckham last. Year
what do you think that THE spca again to do
to the two and a half thousand greyhounds if the
industry goes In july thirty one next, Year, WELL.

Speaker 2 (02:01:28):
I think a lot of them will go To. Australia
well some of.

Speaker 3 (02:01:32):
The dogs are not. There, oh they won't. Care the
airlines are not even flying.

Speaker 2 (02:01:36):
Them WELL i thought there. WAS i thought there was
a huge demand in The United states Of america for
greyhounds as, pets because they've got none over.

Speaker 3 (02:01:44):
There it's only in a certain time of the year
because the winter can't take.

Speaker 2 (02:01:49):
Them what's the state of play at the at the
race meets these? Days there's no one there or there's
still full.

Speaker 3 (02:01:55):
Fields, no no one's allowed to breed at the moment
because of uncertainty in the, Industry and half the times
is they are only five and six dog fields because
no one's breeding.

Speaker 2 (02:02:06):
Disc they're still. Distant do you still pay, first, second
and third and a five dog?

Speaker 24 (02:02:11):
Race?

Speaker 3 (02:02:12):
Yep yep That oh, well that's that's the t O.
B that's the end tame for.

Speaker 2 (02:02:19):
You because, fields small fields and the gallops they only.
Pay they don't pay for a third prime third place
only they.

Speaker 3 (02:02:25):
Only pay top, two but you can beat Fixed dodd's top. Three,
okay Thanks marcus for.

Speaker 2 (02:02:31):
Letting me have my say no and AS i, say you,
KNOW i can understand all the using. It but, look
last Time i've been to quite a few dog events
that over the. SUMMER i went to the the dogs
and fog AND ui and it was a it was
a it was a really.

Speaker 21 (02:02:49):
Nice.

Speaker 2 (02:02:49):
Atmosphere it was it, was you, know compared to the
dogs in V, cargo which was a bit of an
add on to the other. Thing but they had the
straight track which they built where the races were at
that but you, KNOW i thought it was a great.
Meat but you, know, YEAH i do nice to hear from.
YOU i thank you eighteen past even text if you
want to a. Call marcus really keen to talk about

(02:03:12):
organic farming and news in AND i think people need
to get into this environment is so importantly of so many,
potential so many potential of the. Country we could make
an economy of. This you to wear anything if you want,
to just ring. UP i had a swarm of bees
while riding my boat.

Speaker 1 (02:03:27):
Bike that was not.

Speaker 5 (02:03:28):
Fun Not.

Speaker 2 (02:03:28):
Marie feel free to get in touch anything goes for
the final, hour the number is eight hundred and eighty
ten eighty and nine to nine two for texts are
romance along from TWELVE a twenty one past. Eleven, meggie
it's market's, welcome good. Evening, Hello, Hi.

Speaker 27 (02:03:48):
Meggie, YEAH i was just calling to say about organic.

Speaker 2 (02:03:53):
Farming, sure what did you want to?

Speaker 7 (02:03:55):
Say wondering what's.

Speaker 27 (02:03:57):
Your opinion on? It, LIKE i don't, KNOW i just
feel like there's kind of like a bit of a
divide ABOUT i don't, know it's just like everything with
like and the use of fertilized and.

Speaker 2 (02:04:09):
STUFF i don't think there's a, divide BUT i think
probably there is a financial cost for goods that are
grown that way that probably a lot of people would
rather buy the cheapest stuff that's not. Organic and that's the.
Challenge there's the challenge For gan ex farmers is that

(02:04:32):
it's you, know is that the organic stuff is it's
nice to, have but most can't afford.

Speaker 23 (02:04:36):
It.

Speaker 28 (02:04:38):
Yeah, see that's WHERE i think we could get in
with like overseas exports tell me more. SO i guess
like in countries Like europe and, stuff they have quite
a high demand for organic, products which is it's Pure
New zealand like, reputation so meat and stuff like. That

(02:04:58):
there's quite a high demand for organics because they have
all their regulations about like, fertilizes especially In european. Countries
not quite, sure like, exactly but, YEAH i Mean.

Speaker 2 (02:05:09):
Europe does seem to be leading the whole charge on,
organics AND i guess that makes it harder For New zealand,
because you, know especially if you're exporting BECAUSE i don't
know if there's many people that are exporting organic sheep
will be from this. COUNTRY i, mean there'll be some
market for, it but we're a long way away from
where the buyers, are aren't.

Speaker 28 (02:05:27):
We, yeah. Definitely, No i'm just curious about your opinion
on that BECAUSE i know some people are more for
like just going straight for like all the money.

Speaker 2 (02:05:38):
ECONOMY i think when times in the country is going
well and people feel they're, wealthy they can do things
like bi. Organics but when times are tough like they're,
now people are just kind of scramming to make do
so they don't really have that luxury of choosing. Organic
Although i'm Sure i'm sure organics better for.

Speaker 4 (02:05:56):
You.

Speaker 28 (02:05:56):
No as a university, STUDENT i definitely can't afford that
most of the.

Speaker 2 (02:06:01):
Time but it's just although you could have you got
a place where you can grow.

Speaker 5 (02:06:05):
Stuff, yeah we.

Speaker 28 (02:06:07):
Do actually we had a few plants out in the
garden which was pretty good at. LIGHT i think there's
definitely something that would be good for LIKE uni students to.
Do who's chuck in the? Garden?

Speaker 6 (02:06:19):
Yeah what are you?

Speaker 5 (02:06:20):
Growing some?

Speaker 3 (02:06:20):
Money?

Speaker 28 (02:06:22):
Oh we're just going like some of the basic things
like letters from, herbs, tomatoes stuff like.

Speaker 2 (02:06:27):
That, okay nice to Talk, Maggie thanks very much for.
That there we go twenty four past, Eleven. Marcus this
guy banging on about the. Greyhounds what he didn't say
Is intain Tab now he's a monopoly on betting in this,
country didn't they? ALWAYS i think This intain has come
and done the promotions and they get the. Cut you
can't have an account In australia now because you can't

(02:06:48):
use The internet to access. It i'll thank you the
odds here. About it's a mess and so, unfair and
the greyhounds are collateral, Damage. Marcus the guys that win
the dog racing and coming on with the sobstrey can bag.
Off animals are not for ow. Entertainment all sports involving
animals should be. Banned AND i think it was fairly
fear in putting out the hypocrisy that they've just chosen

(02:07:11):
one aspect To Ben, Marcus i'm a student at can To.
BE i can barely afford meet twice a week littone organic.
Vegetable it's got to take what you can. Get for
the most, part we're in a recession for goodness. SAKE
i wonder If trump wins the Old Nobel Peace prize.
Tomorrow sure they wouldn't give it to him the last,
minute would. They it's his speculation is growing that he

(02:07:34):
might have won. It, well that would seem kind of
hard to. Believe good, Evening alice to this Is. Marcus.

Speaker 9 (02:07:49):
Welcome Hello, Marcus hey be a frozenly room bub bet
your way up north.

Speaker 2 (02:07:57):
FOUR i think you might have me confused with someone.

Else, oh we'll go.

Speaker 9 (02:08:06):
ALL a young lady was talking about organics just two minutes. Ago,
YES i would like to suggest to her she's still
listening to Use dollo. Mite it's very good for the.
Soil it's got keelcium and, magnesium and it lasts longer

(02:08:30):
than normal.

Speaker 2 (02:08:32):
Lime where do they get out dolomite from it's a.

Speaker 9 (02:08:37):
Stone, OH i don't know what the golden bay is? It,
NO i don't, know but it's got editors like calcium
and magnesium put into the, stone.

Speaker 16 (02:08:57):
Crushed.

Speaker 2 (02:08:58):
STONE i think the magnesium that would be literally occurring
in the, stone wouldn't.

Speaker 9 (02:09:01):
It it could.

Speaker 12 (02:09:03):
BE i don't, know.

Done there's one tree that is very, good and, uh
the fruit is very. Expensive When Larry atra, fruiting it's tree.

Speaker 2 (02:10:26):
TOMATOES i think that's because they're vulnerable to that passion fruit.

because it's hard for them to. Grow, now passion fruits
and tree tomatoes are very. Expensive, yeah, yeah, yeah that's.

Speaker 29 (02:12:02):
Good yeahs, open done with.

Speaker 16 (02:12:04):
It.

Speaker 29 (02:12:05):
Yeah and then but The american shutdown of interest to
me at the moment because of the fact that a
whole country could go into that mode for a period of,
time a huge, country and make it so vulnerable. Too you,
know do you know, what you know WHAT i couldn't work.

Speaker 2 (02:12:27):
OUT i couldn't work out while The democrats had the
ability to pass.

Speaker 29 (02:12:30):
That, Yeah, no it did seem like it was going
to be you, know you would, say, okay the government
was shut, down The, democratics.

Speaker 5 (02:12:40):
The democrat would would then.

Speaker 29 (02:12:43):
Get the advantage from the voters because the government was
shut down by by you, know effectively the, well the president's,
there the figureheads Is, trump so he would take the
rap for it being shut, down and therefore they were
they would go against them at the next. Election but,
yes now The democratics do you have a have a

(02:13:03):
role to play and shutdowns as, well.

Speaker 5 (02:13:05):
The whole, well the whole collective lot, do but.

Speaker 29 (02:13:10):
It just seems like they're openingsselves up to you, know
vulnerability such as you, know tearst attacks and.

Speaker 6 (02:13:17):
Stuff you.

Speaker 2 (02:13:17):
Know oh, yeah, LOOK i FOUND i found the whole
thing very confusing to understand because it seemed like different
groups had different gains to get from the from the.
Shutdown and, yeah sort of brinksmanship and all sorts of.
Stuff but, YES i found it quite.

Speaker 29 (02:13:30):
Confusing, YEAH i, mean we went through our our shutdowns
with you, KNOW covid and, stuff and we we have
we seem to be very sensitive to anything that the
government wants to wants to shut down a little bit
or temple with over, here and yet they've got a
whole country.

Speaker 2 (02:13:49):
That it's a weird. System it's a. System it seems
to happened more and more often the. Shutdowns.

Speaker 29 (02:13:54):
Also, yeah and the thing is supposedly when they get
back there's an element of bad, pay so they really
don't achieve very much it down because you're.

Speaker 2 (02:14:06):
Gonna crazy pay everyone after they're not.

Speaker 29 (02:14:10):
Working, True, okay well just sort of share.

Speaker 2 (02:14:13):
The appreciate that. Grant thank you Full, Hello.

Speaker 7 (02:14:18):
Gay.

Speaker 13 (02:14:20):
Marcus i'll explain shutdown In america. Here it's quite. Simple
as soon as they as soon as they go back to,
business they're going to have to swear and this woman
who will this, WOMAN i don't know who she's from
or who you want her. Neighbors there's a woman who

(02:14:43):
is about to be sworn Into, congress in which she,
does she's promised that she'll provide the vote that will
cause the. SHUTDOWN i mean that will she'll she'll provide
the extra. VOTE i mean THE x THE xt and

(02:15:04):
papers are, released and that's.

Speaker 2 (02:15:07):
What, YES i have. HEARD i have heard it as
connected to The, epstein The epstein. Papers that's one of
the takes on.

Speaker 15 (02:15:12):
That.

Speaker 13 (02:15:13):
Yeah, yeah and that's why they shut down the government
because they don't want bit for. Heaven that's.

Speaker 2 (02:15:20):
Amazing, yeah but it didn't seem as though it seems
that though different groups have different, takes like there's advantages
to both The democrats and The republicans for the. Shutdown so,

(02:15:41):
yeah but, YEAH i do know that some of it
relates to the Whole epstein thing, Too so and hopefully
all that comes. Out it's ghastly nice to talk twenty
four away from, Twelve. Richard It's marcus.

Speaker 15 (02:15:51):
Welcome oh, YEAH i was just listening to the bird strike?

Speaker 5 (02:15:55):
Thing was It canadian?

Speaker 2 (02:15:56):
Geese, no it. Wasn't they don't know what it was, Yet.

Speaker 5 (02:16:02):
Okay it.

Speaker 2 (02:16:02):
Was it wasn't EVERY i mean there was a. Yea
did you see the? Photo?

Speaker 5 (02:16:06):
Yeah, yeah, yeah must been quite quite large. Birds AND
i just said the previous caller talking about about it
being geese or you might have mentioned that that was probably.

Speaker 2 (02:16:19):
AND i probably said that. Wrongly Actually i've got about
a hit as.

Speaker 5 (02:16:22):
WELL i would just kind of, say there's the point
THAT i wanted to make is THAT i spent a
lot of time in Christ church AND i walk around
the gardens and there's This canadian geese and the mess
they make is it's out of. ORDER i think the

(02:16:42):
cow should be.

Speaker 2 (02:16:43):
Happening oh they're always, culling aren't. They AND i think
they're Called canada, geese Not canadian. GEESE a text to
text me about, that WHICH i hadn't heard. Before but,
YEAH i don't.

Speaker 5 (02:16:51):
THINK i don't think they are colling. Them in Christ,
church you can't really walk through the panthanical guards without
having to have always standing on standing on their.

Speaker 2 (02:17:05):
Excrement they're very inefficient, eaters aren't. They most of it
seems to pass right through, Them AND i.

Speaker 5 (02:17:11):
Don't see why what they're here if it Was, canadian
guess they're taking up space where we could have natural.

Speaker 2 (02:17:17):
Birds they got here on their, own though they weren't.

Speaker 5 (02:17:21):
Reduced, yes but, yes so it's probably a little bit
of a digression to the. BIRDS i.

Speaker 2 (02:17:27):
Love they're, gorn the rabbits of the. Sky they're. Everywhere
they're taking.

Speaker 5 (02:17:31):
Over, yeah AND i don't think there should Be New
zealand Not.

Speaker 2 (02:17:34):
Canada but there's a season for. Them they hunt.

Speaker 9 (02:17:40):
Them why are?

Speaker 5 (02:17:44):
They were they all around The Oven river in this
beautiful botchnical gowns we've got and every way you walk
if you've AVOID.

Speaker 2 (02:17:55):
I guess you can't really get rid of them because
they're after. Food so there's no other birds, there they'll
just fly in.

Speaker 16 (02:18:02):
Shoot.

Speaker 2 (02:18:03):
Them, yeah but you can't shoot when they're sort of
kids around playing in. Tourists it's not a good, look is.

Speaker 5 (02:18:08):
It Is this a night time and there's a way
of coming animals like, that and people might, go you
can't do, That well you, Can, well you probably can't coming.
Deers there's too many deer in the.

Speaker 2 (02:18:22):
Country it's probably quite hard in an urban.

Speaker 5 (02:18:26):
