Episode Transcript

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

Speaker 2 (00:11):
That'd be.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
Greetings, welcome on him as Marcus Tuesday hit on Midnight's night.
Short week, long week and how it is the short
one seem longer any way, Gosh, Darcy sound a good
list of them on the way into Town Claire on
the FM and in Vera Cargland South and now with
a guy from Cricket. Very good anyway, hittl Midnight tonight.
Two or three things to talk about, probably four or
five things actually factually. Hope your Anzac day went well.

(00:35):
We had good subus and bluff actually well attended, good weather,
good cannon skid off, the turns very good, extremely good. Anyway,
it's about enough for me. Very good. I hate to
say it, but a very good sandwich. Well that had
a spirit. I don't know what was in it at
the aria, asparagus and something else. It was like it

(00:56):
was a triple. You know, you always come across those
plates of sandwich, but it's hard to know where one
sandwich begins the next one ends, because always three or
four bits. But there was a spirit. I wish I'd
taken a punt of it. Actually it might have been
rocket And anyway, it sounds through twenty twenty six to
go to out Anti day. Just talk about the sandwiches,
but what was removing is that there was a ceremony

(01:20):
at the Senator for whatever it's called, the war Memorial
eleven am and break out their local volunteers and the
police and all sorts of people there, but also too
and a lot of people laid wreaths. But one of
the guy that laid the wreaths, one of the guy
that laid the wreaths was I've only found out since
on social media was TJ from the local takeaway and

(01:43):
he's a Sikh and I didn't realize, but a number
of Sikhs for us alongside the Anzact soldiers at Gallipoli,
and he was removed to lay a wreath. And yeah,
it was quite a nice you know. I mean Antick
Days are always different, but it's always good if you

(02:04):
learn something and there's something new to your community you
find out. I guess that's what I need to say.
In small communities, small communities do Endzact Day well. And
that's and you know, with the one and it's been
a couple of years since I've been to the one
in Bluff, but there were the pipes and the cannons
and uniforms and all sorts of stuff. It was great,
So just wanted to put that out there. The other

(02:27):
thing I want to talk about too, so that that
and I see that the daytime host seven took much
about ENDAC Day, but I thought it was actually quite special.
I guess it's always the situation if you strike a
good one, and the weather was good down south. The
other thing too, that I wouldn't mind covering off and
it was a bit of a cash on Friday night,
but also let's spring that. Look, I think everyone I

(02:49):
have not heard a bad report about the sports event
and Christ each other the weekend, And part of me thought, oh,
I hope there's not some bad news stories. I hope
there's not a riot afterwards to get beer or something,
because sometimes the people, sometimes a sense of occasion overwhelms people.
But I have not heard one spirit of bad information

(03:12):
from Christ Church. So well done, people. It was not
one bad headline, There was no moan, there was nothing
to state in the pillar of Christ. Chich have waited
a long long time to get and they've got it.
And they're happy with it. In fact, they're ecstatic with it.
In fact, they're so happy with it there are now
talking about it as one of the country's great stadium.
So I don't know if that's a thing or not.
But so if you want to comment about that, if

(03:32):
you've got more verdicts, more thoughts about it. But yeah,
everyone seems to say that it's fantastic. So I haven't
heard it, and I'm not saying it's not like I'm
saying I haven't hear anything bad about it. Have you
got anything bad to say it about it? But no,
I just want to hear from you if you want
to continue on that positivity. From Friday and sad Day
and Sunday from christ Church, everyone seemed to like the state,

(03:54):
everything about the stadium, the sight lines, the Someone was
talking about how how good it was, how how easy
it was for everyone that left. What would they call
that down the clear out. Yeah, people love the clear out,
how quick clear could leave, which was I've never heard
that been as a plus before cheap as creepers. We've
left there quickly. But people love the clear out. They
love the food, they love the beer, they loved everything

(04:15):
about that. They love the staff. They love the fact
that you could pay wave through in terminal. So that
was situation tic tech tickety tic tic tic tic tic.
That's a situation with the stadium from christ Church. So
that's a good news story. You might want to comment
on that Nantic Day just so we cover that off
after three days. Feel free to come through. Oh wait
one hundred eighty ten eighty and nine two nine two

(04:35):
to text. You want to start the whole rolling to know.
They are not my topics here, just things I think
we should cover off before we get into the nut Sandbolts,
Anzact Day and the christ Church Stadium. I've got somethings
either of those that would be a delight to hear
from you. So yeah, get in touch. I wait one
hundred eighty ten eighty and nine two nine two to text.

(04:56):
But yeah, I always think it's really important from Inzact
Day if you learn more about some of the conflicts
and some of the people involved in that conflict, if
it becomes a learning opportunity, and I think that's really helpful.
It creates more understanding rather than less understanding. So I
think that's really important. Fifteen hundred and fifteen thousand Indian troops,

(05:19):
including a significant contension of six soldiers, fought alongside Anzac
forces at Gallipolian nineteen fifteen, offering the same treat as
the fourteenth Sikhs and particularly earned renowned for their bravery
and suffered heavy casualties. So that was a bit of
information that I perhaps was aware of, Peraps was unaware of,
but certainly was reminded about that and relearned about that one.

(05:40):
So yes, eight hundred eighty ten eighty and nine two
nine to text, you've got a thing to add to that,
And about the stadium and christ Church, we haven't had
a good go around without what the verdict was, No
one's complained at all about anything, which I would imagine
is the first time ever in the history of stadiums
that one has come out that's got the tic tech
tech tech tech, that everything is good. People are loving it.

(06:03):
That's a credit to the community and also to the
people that put that thing to together, the consultation, the council, government,
all of it to get something that's and I think
probably what's also important actually thinking allowed here is that
the expectation, you know, they haven't promised something and not
delivered it. They've promised an all purpose stadium mainly for rugby,

(06:25):
and it seems as though they have over delivered on
that promise. And that's that's where happiness comes from, slightly
under promising and over delivering. So well done, christ Church.
Can't wait to go there to something. I won't be
Robbie Williams. That won't be the Fooies. I don't know

(06:47):
what would get me. There might be the All Blacks,
it might be the Worries, it might be something completely different,
it might be could be anything you've never never got
another World Cup coming along, But do get in touch
of your on to talk on a fourteen past eight
as I say, oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty
and nine nine two detext if you don't want to
start the whole ball rolling tonight. I will keep you
updated with the news as it happens. Obviously it's busy

(07:10):
news time this time. It's busy news time just because
it's so much happening, isn't there. Yes, I didn't know.
I don't know how you were with that assassination attempt.
I think I deliberately didn't go and watch all the
footage of that. Didn't think it was really going to
be the right thing to do. We just seemed to
be inundated with a lot of that stuff these days,

(07:32):
so you're just putting that out there as well. But yes,
if you do want to start the whole ball running
for the discussions tonight, as I say, oh, eight hundred
and eighty ten eighty and nine two nine to detect.
If you want to come through here till twelve o'clock tonight,
be in touch. Interesting to the mysterious nights were not
really solved. It seems to have been a Russian rocket. Yeah,

(07:52):
and this was on Friday, but now there's unexplained nights
from last night as well. In fact, there were bright
lights in the sky yesterday. They're one scene off from
Carterton last night yesterday about seven point thirty. There's been
much speculation about those. Anyway, do get in touch, you
on to talk. As I say, oh eight hundred and

(08:13):
eighty today, there's something else you want to mention. Did
feel free to come through as I say, hentil twelve
o'clock tonight, keep those texts or if you've got texts,
but an Zac Day, if you've got any thoughts or
takes on Anzac Day and that stadium in christ Church,
mainly christ Church Stadium was brilliant except the fifteen percent
surcharge on Sunday for food and drinks. Wouldn't it been

(08:35):
on Sunday? Would it had to be on Monday? Wouldn't
it because Monday was the public holiday? But it wasn't open.
Sure they couldn't put fifteen percent surcharge on Sunday. Could
someone tell me more about that? Unless it was the
Saturday after mid I can't work out what would have
been there. It must have been Saturday if that was
the actual public holiday. Marcusam from christ Church, Lovely christ Wich.
Wonder if the new stadium roof opens up somehow as

(08:57):
it gets so hot in summer. No, but I imagine
there's flow through. I imagine there's kind of sliding doors you
can open to get the blow and going through. That
would be my own pre Marcus. I flew down to
christ Church from Auckland on Saturday night, unfortunately not to
see the rugby, just for some other family stuff. There
were some ecstatic chief supporters on the plane, all dressed

(09:18):
up and so excited to go to the stadium as
an ex south Under. I couldn't have been more proud
to be part of the vibe and excitement of being
in christ Church. It is awesome. So there we go.
Someone said there's an article on stuff this evening about
the stadium being a greenhouse needs more ventilation. Well that's
Intrusia's what someone just said. I can't find the article
but I'm sure Dan will send that to me once
he finds it. So quick squizzed through there, I can't

(09:40):
quite see it, but we will get onto that. Oh,
a bit of a greenhouse. The roof at one use
in the stadium in christ Chach brought a bumper atmosphere
inside the stadium during Super Rugby Super Round, but also
brought the heat the toughest conditions upon this weekend. No
doubt occurred during them. In afternoon Sunday match, Hailanda Skipper
de Group said things got hot under the roof. So

(10:01):
there we go. There might be a situation where there
been bit of a hot house. I think they meant
that tongue in cheek though was a bit fun. But yeah,
maybe they will have heat problems there. Maybe someone wants
to comment on that too, But yeah, there's more a
rugby story, not a hot house story. I think a
hothouse metaphorically from a sporting point of view, eighteen pasted
eight Get in touch? Do you want to talk here
till twelve? Keep those texts coming through plenty there to

(10:23):
talk about tonight. Marcus Staggs versus Canterbury on the twenty
sixth September that the new stadium for you could be
a shield game if a Targo lose to Canterbury in
round two. Thank you for that. Anyone else going blingling
with multiple question marks over that assassination attempt looks like
staged a set up for another Tarco diversion. Well, I

(10:44):
think the only person that came out of it well,
for what I could see, was Kesh Patel. If anyone
was all good because he came across looking quite brave
because he didn't duck under the table like the others.
But I didn't know what was going on. The only
people complaining about christ Church you playground are the poor,
suffering straight payers who are compelled to pay for it
and probably only half a dozen rugby games each year.

(11:05):
They forgot to put in a running track, went to
buy a beer and wine at the rugby told me
I couldn't do it. A beer is one stand a
drink and a wine is one point five standard drinks.
You can only get two standard drinks. Rubbish? Oh wow,
it's only get two drinks. So you can't get a
beer and a wine for the missus or a wine

(11:26):
and a beer for the misses. That's bad, isn't it.
You need one of those beer runners that run back
and forwards for you. I read in a building magazine
that the roof sits seven hundred mil above the walls.
This is earthquake resilience design feature, but also provides ventilation.
A twenty past eight looking forty. Start the discussion tonight.

(11:48):
All the lines are free. Just can you get some
discussion going about the stadium from the weekend from Friday,
Saturday Sunday. If you were there surprising that the drinks
there was the search charge, but there must have been
the Saturday, Well that been Anzac Day. I've got no
understanding of search charges, but I guess yes. Would it
been a long weekend, and with Sadday being the public

(12:10):
holiday and Sunday being the monthayization of it, were they
both public holidays? Are they both fifteen percent surcharge? Maybe
someone could clarify that for me, did I get a
coffee on Saturday? I can't remember what the price was,
If that was more or not. You might have some
understanding about that. There's also people saying who they want
to play in the stadium in christ Church. A text

(12:30):
door has said that they would love to see Penny
or Solomeo perform at the one Stadium. Now, yeah, what
a great idea that would be. And for a while
there some of my For a while there there were
those big opera shows at stadium. There was Aida and
those sorts of ones that people went nuts for. I
don't know what's happened to those. They're a huge thing.

(12:52):
There was some entrepreneur that was doing them and people
were flocking to them. They're not as prevalent now maybe
they've done their dash, maybe to once in a generation thing,
but they would be good things to do. So, yes,
you got some comedy about that also and Enzac Day
just put that out there if you want to come through.
Someone has emailed me, I don't really understand this email.
Someone's email regarded the post he's been instructed to intercept

(13:16):
and return to send a mail that's addressed to a
street address or a post office box. Or private bag holder.
I called you posted on christych It's correct that no
longer as street addressed mail redirected to your post office box,
it's returned to sender. This has been the case since
twenty twenty four and explains why am I correctly addressed

(13:37):
NZTA relicnsing stick and never turned up two years running
were this year after changing the address to our post
office box arrived in three days. Apart from the fact
I thought it was illegal to interfere with correctly addressed
and mail, I had to spend thirty dollars getting the
two regios renewed. Tens of thousands of items have been
returned to sender, but the posters are lobbying the government

(13:58):
to have the New Zealand Post instructions overturned. I was
advised by my contact today where everything's sent to my
post office box, So maybe put it out there that
if someone has a post office box or private bag
they should do the same. That's really complicated. So it
must be if the if they've got both of them
on the envelope, that they send it back. Why that
seems niggli to me. If anyone knows we're about that

(14:22):
or what might that be about it? But get in touch?
Oh wait, but who wants to start the whole war
rolling people tonight? Come on, he's been hearing from you first.
After three days off it story? Is it hard to
get the old engine going. So if you want to
talk on here, get in touch. These other stuff we
could talk about today at great length. I'll keep the
ideas of the ideas. I'll keep my eyes on the
news and anything else that's happened. So if you do

(14:45):
want to come through, get in touch. As I say, oh,
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty and nine, text goodness
to me. There's a car's questioned to William Shakespeare's family home.
The repair cost could be twenty three million dollars. Oh,
someone reversed into it. It's Jacobian, of course, it is

(15:07):
Hall's croft. Wow, that's something, isn't it anyway? Nickets Marcus,
good evening.

Speaker 4 (15:15):
Hey, I'm just like to keep the conversation off the
night about the little story for Anzac Day. We're in
central Taranaki and every every year.

Speaker 5 (15:29):
I take my.

Speaker 4 (15:30):
Daughters to our local memorial hall and they've picked out
they've picked out a soldier that they that they have
taken a shine too, and they've they've researched research, and
he died in World War One and every year Anzac Day.

(15:53):
He got killed in France. But his parents are buried
in a little cemetery in Central Taranaki here and he
has the headstone and every year we go down and
put flowers down.

Speaker 6 (16:06):
Nice.

Speaker 4 (16:07):
That sounds great, just as a as a remembrance, and
they they do stuff at Schooley every year for it.
You know, I just shot down shut down yesterday actually
and and Takasato and sent it to my girl's teacher
because they're doing stuff and they're going for a walk

(16:28):
this Thursday around the local but it's in our town
and she's going to go down and ask your teacher
if she can go down and have show her what
she's researched.

Speaker 3 (16:43):
And when you say central Taranaki, where is that referring
to that that that the parents are buried Stratford? That's great? Wow?

Speaker 7 (16:53):
Yeah yeah.

Speaker 4 (16:54):
So it was a soldier w Weinberg and he died
in France. So explain to my daughters that his parents
so they here, but he was buried overseas, went to
war and became came back. So they like a little sponge,

(17:16):
you know, so interested in all of that, and I
think it's great.

Speaker 5 (17:22):
And Zac Day it's it's it's a it's a.

Speaker 4 (17:25):
Day of remembrance and just it's a day that we
can all sit back as a country and realize how
lucky we are.

Speaker 3 (17:34):
Live it there neck. But thanks so much for that
great stuff. Keep the calls coming through. Oh wait eighty
free keen to talk about the Kharkass story as well too.
If you've got those, if you have seen them, if
you might have them nesting in your property, that would
be of interest to me too. I think I don't
know where else around the country and the big cities
they are, but for Auk and that's sensational. I imagine
they're at Shakespeare Park. I imagine they're at City today Martingue,

(17:56):
imagine there I think I taught. And imagine they're coming
across the mainland from there. I don't know that, but
if you've got something to say about that also, and
and Zac Day to the wash up from there and
the stadium and christ Jute. The other thing I wouldn't
mention to my here's something I wouldn't mind. What was
there a sewer charge? On Saturday. I can't work that
out because someone's text and they said the sewcharge was

(18:18):
on Sunday at the stadium. Could anyone else fat check
that one for me? Marks of an Orkander was Rey
Littertius and Rugby, and I was really happy to see
the stadium finally open and so many people. They're great,
they finally got a lot going. Looks amazing in the
surcharge too. Someone's texted and said stadium was brilliant except

(18:39):
the fifty percent surcharge on Sunday for food and drinks.
I can't see that that that could legally happen, But
then again, I don't know if it was Monday Friday
was the surcharge day. So yeah, great shots of Milania
and King Charles. He's got to run stitches taking using
some of his old Spike Miligan material, no doubt anyway.

(19:02):
So two things about the stadium. One would be the
price of drinks with a sewcharge, and the other one
would be the two drink limit. I mean, that's crazy
if there's a two drink limit. But I mean people were,
people were well behaved, There was no there are no
horrible headlines. The day after Hey, speaking of that about
beer and wine, Do people still buy those home brew kits?

(19:25):
And the supermag romo were ten years ago, twenty years ago,
and was buying the home brew kits? Are they still
a thing or are they out of favor? I just
haven't see some of the supermarkets, which I don't think.
I normally don't because because in Vocabolary you can't sell
alcohol at the super market. That's my surprised to see
the home brew kits. But yeah, they still as we
enter these times of financial constriction, does it make sense

(19:50):
to brew your own? Is anyone doing those from the kits?
I think the Cooper's kits were big for a while.
But you what's the what are the numbers stack up
like one of those you would have done the meth
and worked out I'm sure if there's Yeah, I guess
it's a payoff between if it's cheaper, if it tastes
any good. So if you're using those beer kits, we
know how they work for you. He's someone who need
to take about those for a long, long, long long time,

(20:14):
because you see that there's been a number of innovations
in the homebrew market. There was a while there was
a franchise set up for places where you would go
and you'd make your own brew there and you'd go
back in two weeks or someone pick the whole stuff up.
I don't know if those ones are still around, but yeah,
it's curious day where we are on the whole home
brew thing. If it's kind of done, it's dash again,

(20:34):
or it's on I just saw that on the shelves.
I thought it might be on its way back again.
So yes, that's some of the other stuff you might
want to talk about. Twenty five to ten, twenty five
to nine. Rather goodness, we need some of old on
the surcharge was Saturday and Monday. Hundreds of Krka and
Wellington too, flying over the National ANZAC service on Saturday morning,
Lots on Lampton Key as well, lots of Carker and

(20:56):
Wellington with the Landia Sanctuary in Carrori. I couldn't believe
how many birds I saw in Stuart Island when we
were there, unbelievable. I made a list. It's about thirty
two different birds in middles Some of them were not
the rarest birds, but I thought that was kind of
extraordinary for one small island. Anyway. Twenty five to nine.

(21:18):
Looking forward to CALS twenty three Away from nine. Darren
ats Marcus, welcome, good evening.

Speaker 5 (21:25):
I see what you mean good things, Darren.

Speaker 8 (21:29):
I don't really know. I've never been to the stadium,
but I made in mind. He's pretty well. He's very
close and all black and he's now here.

Speaker 9 (21:38):
Okay.

Speaker 8 (21:38):
He's been there for the funding it down, for the
foundation and he's basically in every level that's easy. It
was just amazing. The most amazing thing easier was seen.

Speaker 3 (21:47):
Now can't quite. It's hard for hard for us. I
haven't been to work out what the wow factors and
people are raving about it.

Speaker 8 (21:53):
I'm just so right then across it should the car
raging last week or the week last week, and then
this this week and the win they held up for us.
It's like the gods of New Zealand cappany and they
just put the way.

Speaker 10 (22:07):
They're on And are you are you?

Speaker 3 (22:09):
Are you a Catbrian Darren?

Speaker 6 (22:11):

Oh what is that being born and bridge? You've been
there your whole life. You never escaped.

Speaker 8 (22:17):
Oh I've been away, been away on holiday, but I
always come home.

Speaker 3 (22:21):
I've been away on holiday. Good on you, okay, well
we will get you to leave.

Speaker 11 (22:28):
Leave Darren not.

Speaker 3 (22:30):
I reckon you could either. I reckon you're a lifer.

Speaker 8 (22:33):
I'm getting realized. Yeah, crazy means and made rugby with
rugby clubs and I've been fishing all around me and
been dappingder me out and I just love this place
where it's fantastic.

Speaker 3 (22:44):
You should have got your ticket for for the weekend.

Speaker 8 (22:49):
No, the ocaun off all debt, but it was just
saying fantastic here. It all worked out and I'm saying
please on the ground. You know, you see that the
new stadiums opened with the reef on and the Grand
falls apart, and.

Speaker 3 (23:04):
I don't know if I don't know if there's ever
been another stafe the type and open that's been a disaster.
But people are chronic fault finders in New Zealand and
they always say, oh, this was.

Speaker 8 (23:11):
Wrong, that was the wrong stadium, the greatest stadium in Australia,
one of the great I think it's so cool, and
that destroyed itself with a bus dayment. They just they
were picking the layers of grass or.

Speaker 3 (23:24):
Oh I don't know that. Okay, you're as this is
obviously specialist Okay, sound cool, babes.

Speaker 8 (23:30):
I just love rugby and I love watching it.

Speaker 3 (23:32):
But you're happy with the happy you go you want
to do with the cricket CEO.

Speaker 8 (23:38):
Yeah, Jeffrey, Jeffrey, He's uh. When I my family, you were,
my mom and dad used to run a golf club
grass Fitch and he's Inland. Cricketers had free membership the
Gold Club. They can take a couple day and there
was Hairy Steady leaving Still and a few others basically

(24:05):
lived there. And I was at the apartment and the
cook and one day and one day Harry came up
and goes, Darren was sure of one person, do you
want to come out and play skins a dollar a hole?
And I went, oh, geez, I'm going to ask me man.
I'm twenty five years old and I'm going to ask
to be man. Man can again because your kids And

(24:29):
it was just one of the funniest days of eitherhead
of my life. You know, every one knows how funny
Harry is, but Jeff Heller, who was just hilarious and
mister Steady, mister Steve, I think we see teen moods
in the whole run. But he just does assumer. But
this his movements or his movements was Hendways or whatever

(24:52):
did Jared?

Speaker 3 (24:52):
Did money change hands?

Speaker 8 (24:54):
Oh yeah, I think I lost a dollar.

Speaker 3 (24:56):
OK, it's not bad, olive it, but thank you nineteen ton.
I get your ticks through too fourth it was tangentle Mac's.
I think there'll be too many yes to all black
tests at the christch stadiums at the smallest state of
New Zealand. Tickets price ticket prices will be huge marks.
I think it's absolutely great what the father and daughters
are doing in central Taranaki. To pay tribute to the

(25:17):
soldier who lost his life for the country is a
neat thing to do. But to also respects to the
soldier's parent, that just takes it to another level. And
to be highly commended a legend dad and putting such
great example to his daughter. Maybe proud to hear such
nice behavior. That's from Ryl. Get in touch. If you
wanted to also about beer, brewing your own beer, should
have asked Darren about that. If you want to talk
eight hundred and eighty and carka kar car, we got

(25:40):
that one right in the cities Willington and Auckland. It's
a great thing. Great birds, great birds. Saw plenty of
them on Waihiki when we're there in the holiday. I
mean they've got that distinctive. I mean they sound like parents,
don't they Their parrot bound to be a parrot, look
like a parrot. Sure, they're a parrot. That's the plan.

Speaker 3 (26:33):
We could someone text me who got sent home? She's
where the old radio people end up in it. You
might have just come in from watching it. You might
know back after the break seventeen to nine, Steve Marcus,
Welcome evening.

Speaker 12 (26:49):
Evening in the year. I make my own homebrew from
a kit well, I have done it when I can't
get the ingredients. Have I've deficulty getting the hops. But
when I go to Auckland, are you she go a
couple of homebrew shops, you can get all the ingredients

(27:13):
the brewers. Yeast is hard to get. When I'm doing
my own brew, I've got one of my grandfather's old recipes.
First of all, you go out and make your own yeast.
Peel a potato and make your own yeast.

Speaker 3 (27:31):
Oh this is old school, your old school.

Speaker 12 (27:33):
Eh, old school, and it's nice. Yeah, but yeah, the
same with the wine. I can't get the wine yeast
as such, so I use the skins.

Speaker 3 (27:53):
But yeah, have you done a costing of how much
it's costing your poor bottle?

Speaker 12 (27:59):
Oh, it's about half a commercial bottle? Work said about half?

Speaker 3 (28:05):
So what's that? It's been? Well since I've been in
a pup. How much is a how much it costing
you pre bottle.

Speaker 12 (28:09):
To to buy it? To buy a bottle on the
path you got I'll get in the wholesalers. We're paying
seven dollars a bottle. I'm making it for about four.

Speaker 3 (28:26):
How are you kepping it?

Speaker 12 (28:28):
I've got keps. They say, there's a couple of homebrew
shops in Auckland I go to and I can get
the caps. I've got my own keeping machine.

Speaker 3 (28:39):
I was going to ask you if you've got to
keeping machine, Steven. This has not been judgmentally, but how
much do you drink?

Speaker 12 (28:46):
Oh? Probably only one one bottle a week? Maybe today
I went out to the Kryaha Hotel and had a
nice glass of Guinness, but I hadn't had one for
a couple of weeks. It's not something I have a
chiller like you have, like a pub chiller. I've got

(29:07):
a small version of it out in the laundry and
you got a selection of bits and pieces.

Speaker 3 (29:14):
There many people at the Kaiawa Pub on a Tuesday midday, No,
there weren't really.

Speaker 12 (29:20):
There was just my little friendship group.

Speaker 10 (29:22):
There was.

Speaker 12 (29:24):
Twelve and later on apparently there'd been a funeral in
Thames and they all went to the hotel after that
would have been we left about one half past one.
Apparently there was a few going through to a funeral
after that. But Tuesday, it's a pretty good day there,

(29:47):
you know, it's not busy.

Speaker 3 (29:49):
Have you tried to make a Guinness type beer?

Speaker 12 (29:52):
I did try once. I got one given to me
that it was an old somebody has had an old
peck to make guinness and I think it was too old.
I think the I don't know, well, I don't know
if something went wrong and the either the east was
too old or the pack itself, I don't know. But

(30:17):
it was drinkable. But yeah, it wasn't one of as
good as I thought there could have been.

Speaker 3 (30:24):
Not to talk, Steve, thanks so much for that ten
away from nine oh gone where they went to them
where they called go nine away from nine o'clock. You
want to come through eight hundred and eighty telly nine
to ninety to text HI. There About seur charges, I
think it's a reasonable. It's reasonable to expect the see
charge on public holiday, but in a reasonable fear amount.
The food industry has type margins and stuff are mostly

(30:44):
entire time and a half plus a plate and a
day and loo. These costs add up fast. We saw business.
It's not a business. I'm not a business owner myself,
but now can see how it is. Got a dejaggerandor
at home a laryk parrots to have beneath the from
the seed pods. Also, the new who wants to be
a millionaire is a bit cheesy being touchy on Talk
eight Away from nine the new Stadium day and bear

(31:08):
Kitts has the gloss fallen from. I thought they'd be
cheaper than half the retail price because it's fair thing around.
It's not as good, but you might want to mention that,
by the way, Australians planning overseas holidays are been worn
to brace for travel disruption, with the Middle East conflict

(31:28):
triggering a global jet fuel shortage and raising the risk
of sudden flight cancelations. You might be stuck somewhere.

Speaker 13 (31:35):
Eh.

Speaker 3 (31:36):
By the way, bring crud to dollar tea And that's
as high as I've seen it. So they might be
down now, but they're on their way going one way,
and that's up and he dude one teen. This is
the same price it was beginning of April or March
twenty when it was at its height two weeks into
the conflict. Pete Marcus welcome, Yeah, good Pepe.

Speaker 9 (31:55):
Yeah, I'm all for the charge on public holidays, going
to pay the staff time and a half.

Speaker 3 (32:00):
Yeah, I don't think anyone was before against. I was
just curious to know what days it was it, what
was the public holiday?

Speaker 9 (32:09):
It was actually It was weird because some places were open.
As you know, on Saturday, it's the official day, which
is the twenty fifth, and they can't shop Scarvy open
until midday. And the actual official days actually is actually Saturday,
the twenty.

Speaker 3 (32:26):
Fifth, So Monday was the public holiday.

Speaker 6 (32:30):
But it was okay.

Speaker 3 (32:32):
So we're both we're both, we're both days public holidays.

Speaker 9 (32:36):
I think all depends on your employer. I suppose you
will pay you. I think a fear, she's fear they
will pay you even either day you work. They have
to do anyway, either you work on the twenty fifth
or you work on the day which is the statuary day.
So I think that's what they have to do if
you want to be fear So I'm all for it
because they hang on pete.

Speaker 3 (32:56):
So get this right. If mans anzac MANSI. If Zac
Day is a Monday, the surcharged on a Monday. If
Anzac days on a Saturday, then the surcharges on a
said day and the Monday.

Speaker 9 (33:08):
No, I don't think you get the employer paying for
if you went both days, you wouldn't get was listening to, well,
here's a guy that does your employment thing. Your your
lawyer that does that. What's his name on it?

Speaker 10 (33:19):
Here?

Speaker 9 (33:20):
Here's he was on the show on Sunday about that
they will pay you either either day. You're not going
to get not going to have two chunks of the cake.

Speaker 3 (33:27):
What seems like it was this weekend.

Speaker 9 (33:29):
Either either either you'll okay, the employer will pay you
either either day time or you're not going to get paid.

Speaker 3 (33:36):
Surely it wouldn't be arb Surely wouldn't be arbitrary up
to the up to the the boss is sure you
have to be written a law, wouldn't it, Yes.

Speaker 9 (33:43):
And law. You're going to choice either either day. I
think the employer will pay you either day.

Speaker 6 (33:48):
You want to work, I think, don't think?

Speaker 3 (33:52):
Yeah, okay, do you want to mention the antag day.

Speaker 9 (33:58):
I went to the dawn parade on on Surday, Sorry
on the on the it was on the Saturday.

Speaker 10 (34:05):
So I've got there's.

Speaker 3 (34:09):
Where where was it?

Speaker 9 (34:11):
Down by the cinar here?

Speaker 10 (34:12):
And you.

Speaker 9 (34:15):
Excuse me, I'm not dying. As you go towards you
probably would.

Speaker 10 (34:19):
Have gone part.

Speaker 3 (34:19):
We're all dying, Pete.

Speaker 9 (34:22):
When you go, when you go up towards the walkway
like that, you've got the big, the big test. My
hotel on my home.

Speaker 3 (34:31):
Yeah, beautiful overlooking to see the break is there down
by the coast, I'll be a gorgeous spot.

Speaker 9 (34:36):
Yeah, you know it's good. There's that four thousand people.

Speaker 3 (34:38):
In the here, could could fit that. It's a big crowd.

Speaker 9 (34:42):
Oh no, it's is that.

Speaker 3 (34:44):
It's it's on the middle of the road. It's on
like a triangle.

Speaker 9 (34:48):
Yeah, that's the one is based. It's the middle of
the road. Basically they go right right. It's quite quite
a nice monument. Actually, I went to the old for
the breakfast on the half half of the half of
the parade.

Speaker 3 (34:58):
And where do they have to where they have the breakfast?

Speaker 9 (35:02):
That's always at the Workingmen's Club. Now they combined with
the r s A that you said that, he said,
I say, and you talk a look like most and
they're all combined. Then they can't they can't survive by themselves,
not bluff.

Speaker 3 (35:11):
And bluff and bluff. We've got our own RSA on
a down tremendous place.

Speaker 9 (35:16):
You want to you one of the real ones. Most
of they all combined now oh no, no.

Speaker 3 (35:20):
Combined for I think it's only open. It's only oppened
on the Friday and the sad day, but they do
a good meal.

Speaker 9 (35:24):
Yeah, I know, it's very good. Three backs for a breakfast.
You know you're got a good you had.

Speaker 3 (35:29):
To pay for your breakfast. Sales was free.

Speaker 9 (35:31):
I think the things a look tougher this way, you Marcus.

Speaker 3 (35:34):
Oh, yeah, we're on the we're on the We've got
a dairy banana going and going down the south. Economy
is doing quite well.

Speaker 9 (35:40):
We had a yeah, I had a few of those
nips and RUMs are quite good and doing that, they
won any coffee and they're actually quite genius. Now you
only got one, but this year she was going around
given out quite a few of them.

Speaker 3 (35:50):
Well, you're right driving home on your bike.

Speaker 9 (35:53):
Oh no, I just I only had a couple. You know,
I don't take well some people. They didn't drive one
or two of them. They're getting quite at They're going
around pretty friendly.

Speaker 3 (36:02):
So we're talking about a bit of everything, so I
teen to talk about. But those homebrew homebrew kits and
the financial squeeze are there worthwhile. Also we have talk
about surch charges in the stadium and christ Church that
what a fantastic weekend. That was not one bad news
story from christ Church. And I thought jeepest creepers are
going to fall at the last hurdle. They didn't, which

(36:23):
shows remarkable. I don't know what it shows. Composure, Steve,
Thanks hanging on there. It's Marcus. Good evening, Good evening, Marcus.

Speaker 14 (36:31):
How are you good to speak to you. I hope
you had a good weekend, very good time. Yeah, So, Marcus,
su charge only happened on Saturday and Monday because Saturday
was in that day.

Speaker 5 (36:49):
But because it didn't.

Speaker 15 (36:50):
Fall on the Monday, Monday was in public holiday, they
could not put food charge on Sunday, Okay, and I
know that for facts.

Speaker 5 (37:02):
So that's how it worked.

Speaker 15 (37:05):
So there was no sur charge Sunday, Saturday and Monday.
It was baked to normal today.

Speaker 3 (37:13):
I love it when people say I know that for
a fact. How do you know that?

Speaker 16 (37:17):
Because I work in the industry.

Speaker 3 (37:20):
Okay, So if end that day was on a Monday,
the only suit charge day would be the Monday.

Speaker 5 (37:25):
Right, yes, exactly.

Speaker 3 (37:27):
And if it's on a Saturday, it's Saturday and Monday.

Speaker 16 (37:30):
Yes exactly.

Speaker 15 (37:31):
Because it comes to the it has to be a
public holiday, so they moved it to the Monday because
of Saturday. It's so long. Saturday and they charged surcharge
which was just fifteen percent.

Speaker 3 (37:50):
For the Monday ization.

Speaker 15 (37:52):
Yeah, the fifteen percent Saturday, fifteen percent Monday, and there
was nothing on the Sunday. So and everything back to
normal now. So that's how it works because they cannot
charge the free days.

Speaker 3 (38:10):
Yeah, where do you put? Where do you pull your pints?
Steve Icon Sports Bar and new from off Brilliant. Nice
to hear from you, Steve Hewart's Marcus good evening.

Speaker 17 (38:20):
Hello is it Marcus is here here?

Speaker 6 (38:22):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (38:22):
Hi, you welcome.

Speaker 17 (38:24):
Okay, just wanted to talk just briefly about the price
of diesel. It's it's a fay situation. I was just
a minute ago you said that diesels up to I figure,
which I think you said.

Speaker 3 (38:36):
Was out I said, I said bread crude, which is
the general barrel of all sorts of stuff. Yeah, I
think everything comes out of that. But that's that's what
we use as the hallmark. But yep, understand, yep.

Speaker 17 (38:46):
And so so my benchmark for the price of diesels
last year it was one dollar eighty five, and I
was pretty happy with one dollar eighty five. Sometimes you
get a bit cheap bit more. Two weeks ago or
about ten days ago, I refilled my miss Endavaro youth
and it was three dollars and eighty five cents, and

(39:06):
at that stage some people were reporting these at four
dollars in some places in New Zealand and tonight I've
just been to pack and Save Parapata and Recapity and Redfield.
There it was three dollars and eighteen cents less six
cents for the pack say discount three dollars and twelve cents.

(39:26):
So in the space of one tank of juice, it's
gone from three dollars eighty five to three dollars and
twelve cents. And I can't fathom that, given the fluctuating
prices and these in crude or will, but I'm very
happy about that it has come down as much as
it has in such a short space of time. Do

(39:48):
you know if there's an't been any kind of like
government initiatives to lower the price, or is it just
market trends.

Speaker 3 (39:55):
I think the price has been through volatile, with all
those false dawns, with Trump's negotiations. The price goes up
and down of the barrel. It's gone between nineteen a
dollar ten in the last two weeks. I think the
price at the pump reflects the current price they're paying
for it.

Speaker 17 (40:11):
Yeah, it's remarkable. And even though the straight of hormoes
is that.

Speaker 6 (40:16):
What you want?

Speaker 3 (40:17):
Is that what you wanted to know that? That was
a question you asked, right, wasn't it.

Speaker 10 (40:20):
Yeah? Yeah.

Speaker 17 (40:21):
The second part I want to talk about was Inzac
Day Sports. Like many journals, I watched the sporting event
down at the YU Stadium in christ Church and what
a fantastic, world class facility that looks like, I mean,
just beautiful, just incredible. The thing that most impressed me

(40:42):
were the crowd behavior when the teams were out there
at the start of the game and where you paying
the natural anthems, we're paying our respects to the inact,
you know, our commemorations, and the crowd was so incredibly

(41:02):
silent you could hear a penny drop, and I just
so that was just a remarkably respectful time for both
of these Chalders and the Australians who I'm sure it
would have been in the crowd. And I was just proud, man,
I was just so proud of how well that crowd

(41:22):
behaved at that thing, especially when you compare it to
the ANZAC performances in Australia where they booed the Indigenous
welcome to country, and I thought that was bloody appalling
that you can't have a welcome to country and treat

(41:43):
it respectfully. It just blew me away. And many people
in the social media will say, it's the Anzac Day
where we commemorate the.

Speaker 6 (41:54):
Troops, and I get that.

Speaker 17 (41:57):
I understand that, and we commemorate all the food and order.
Woot was that we need to remember that aboritional men
fought alongside I call them parking men from Australia earned
those conflicts, and in the same way as indigenous First
Nation people of America fought alongside and black people from

(42:20):
America fort alongside the white people, and the hope that
they would gain some level of respect and equality from
their military service. And I don't believe America achieved that.
I think Indigenous and color people would treated just as
badly after the First World War and the Second World

(42:42):
War as they were beforehand. And I think the Aboriginal
people were treated, perhaps not quite as bad as they
were in the early part of the century, but I
don't think they really achieved their respect and equality, which
I thought should have come from military service for their
country and the Commonwealth.

Speaker 3 (43:00):
Appreciate your call to here. Thanks so much for that.
Fourteen past nine. If you want to come through Bright
Titan Real eight hundred and eighty and nine nine to

Speaker 2 (43:44):
Yeah, how are you mate?

Speaker 3 (43:46):
Excellent?

Speaker 2 (43:46):
Excellent end crac Crackey day here in Christos Today got
toney and not too warm. Bomber, no idea, I know
there was a love Bomber. Was there any idea anywhere
on the oysters. He wos the season down near Marcus.

Speaker 3 (44:03):
There having an oyster festival.

Speaker 15 (44:05):
Yes, years there must be some, but.

Speaker 3 (44:08):
There aren't as many as there once were. I think
I don't like to say too much about it, but
they've managed to get some for the fest. The festival
will go ahead. Well that's got to be good because
Romance taking a crowd down for it.

Speaker 2 (44:21):
Yees, yes, no comment, homebrewket you wish to know, we'll
learn something from what I can give to you. What
would you like to know?

Speaker 3 (44:33):
Are you buying it? Are you buying the kids?

Speaker 13 (44:36):
No?

Speaker 2 (44:36):
Being there done that and brewed it and drank it
and don't do it anymore because I don't drink howcohol anymore?

Speaker 16 (44:43):
But what would you like to know?

Speaker 2 (44:44):
Sterilizing is all important?

Speaker 3 (44:46):
No, what I want to know, David, you're not the
guy from me. I want to know if it's because
twenty years ago everyone was doing it. All these kids
came out, you'd make money, You could get yourself rolling
drunk without leaving the house. I mean, it sounded so good.
No one talks about it anymore, so were they? Is
the sugar too expensive now? Is it priced out? What's

(45:06):
the or does it tastes like.

Speaker 13 (45:09):
It's what water.

Speaker 2 (45:11):
No, Marcus, the answer is if you're into it and
you're a hobbyist and you want to brew there, then
go and do it. Do you enjoy it as well?
We're rewarding Hengle the expense. I don't even know what
the expense is these days. But it's a good experiment
and there's a good hobby. I enjoyed it. I used
to drink it, and I used to make a gain
good job of it. Sterialize everything. I was very pedentic.

Speaker 3 (45:33):
Key is sterilize. The key is sterilization, isn't it.

Speaker 2 (45:37):
That's the key, And keep everything clean and spotless. Everything
that comes in contact must be sterilized. And look, I
use the Coopers, I used the German Bok, and used
to use the de mirror sugar or experiment with two
kgs and more of sugar for your alcohol content. And
I used to enjoy it, and I used to blabbah

(45:58):
away and even built myself a little box with a
low wattage bulb. And so I kept the constant key
prencher and I used to for your wart mm hmm,
it's all that, Marcus.

Speaker 3 (46:15):
Look you you were full down the rabbit hole.

Speaker 10 (46:18):
Yeah, of course I was, And.

Speaker 3 (46:21):
All, if you're and you're all, that's the way to
do it, and do it one.

Speaker 2 (46:24):
Hundred percent right to where you enjoy it and you
take pride.

Speaker 3 (46:28):
And you know, did you do it, Dave? Did you
print your own labels?

Speaker 18 (46:33):
No?

Speaker 2 (46:33):
I didn't go that extreme because it was for myself.
But I'll sue you what I used to his bottles.
I had them up in the ceiling and the ceiling cavity,
and I had a disaster one year where there were
still perats working, and I used to a bit of
a flood in the attic markers, so with bottles exploded.

Speaker 3 (46:56):
Don't take this, don't take this the wrong way, Dave.
But it's the mentality. If you brought it yourself, you
can probably drink more because you're making yourself. You feel,
oh well, I've made it myself. I could drink more
because you're sort of saving money. The more you drink.
Does that kicking.

Speaker 2 (47:08):
No, I wouldn't go that streamer because I was a
big drinker back in the day. No, I don't believe
so Marcus price wasn't an issue alcohol back then. Yeah,
the double Brown or the DV Draft or Lyon Brown.

Speaker 4 (47:21):
It was back then.

Speaker 2 (47:23):
It was what it was, Marcus. It was just a
hobby mate, and I used to enjoy it, and I'd suggest,
if you're going to get into it, go for it.

Speaker 3 (47:31):
Did you ever did you have a bottle keepper?

Speaker 12 (47:34):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (47:35):
I did, but then I went to plastic and plastic
is away and walk away.

Speaker 3 (47:38):
That doesn't doesn't come out of the fridge with the
condensation on the side of the bottle that you can't drink.

Speaker 2 (47:44):
Get a plastic well, you decant the course, You decant
it so you don't get the steer and the you know,
you leave the stuff in the bottom. You understand because
you always got some of that sediment to the bottom
and you decanted into a decanter and then pour your
glass from that markers so it stays clear. But my

(48:05):
only comment, if I may, and it might seem mean spirited,
about the events in the new Football round, I believe finally, well, Marcus,
I must say, all in all, yes, very positive, but
and I do have a little butt and it may
be a big but it should have been the Editing showgrounds,
in my opinion, off the side of the city, not

(48:29):
where they were set before.

Speaker 3 (48:31):
Marcus, I agree, but yeah, it's not the time. Yep. Okay,
thanks Dave. Nice to hear from you. We're talking home
brew kids. Oh, here we go. Marcus bo Graves twenty
two became the first woman to win a PDC Tour
event and a field of one hundred out players. Been
in three previous world champs up the Dale. Wow, so

(48:52):
much about bau Graves. So maybe maybe sport, maybe darts
will become equable.

Speaker 6 (48:58):
Is that the word?

Speaker 3 (48:59):
What are the sports where men and women compete? Show jumping?
Bo Graves? Bo Greeves, But well I didn't know that,
huge upset. Oh, I know what she done. This is
a big story anyway, There aren't many sports that men
and women complete equally. First of a female lift a
pro title. Pretty big story that that's in the arrows anyway.

(49:23):
Sealed her on a one four to two.

Speaker 10 (49:25):
There you go.

Speaker 3 (49:27):
Now, I'm people going to say, what's your walk on song?
I always like to know what the walk on song is?
It's not mely either, Tiger. Isn't it rocking all over
the world? Status quo? Well, she's too young to be
listening to status quo. What do your walk on song be?

Speaker 8 (49:45):
Dan?

Speaker 12 (49:46):
Oh?

Speaker 10 (49:46):
Is that right?

Speaker 3 (49:46):
Dan, it's interesting choice twenty one past nine oh eight
hundred and eighty ten eighty nine two nine to the
text Marcus Iars and Franz Joseph of the Antic Week
in every business with letting a twenty percent surcharge. They
applied it for three consecutive days from Saturday through Sunday.
I've found a ridiculous Calvin. I've often talked. I've often
thought about friends Joe most of the times I've been there.

(50:07):
A lot of places tourists can go, but no population.
It seemed unsustainable to me. It's not like it's a
town with cafes. It's just cafes. Where would they get
their staff? So I'm not at all surprised Marcus. X
throwing and now throwing are mixed gender sports. The best
X throwers in New Zealand are women. I looked at

(50:29):
that first. I thought that was a slightly sexist thing
that someone was referring to people having their X thrown
at them. They might be right, it's unbelievable. It was
not unbelievable. I shouldn't be surprised, but that's interesting. So
there we go, and jockeys, equestrian darts and X throwing.

(50:50):
I'm not thinking of starting drinking for those I don't
want people from the club to ring. But yet, no,
I am quite I just a am. I'm just curious
what people are enthusiastic about. I know people at this time,
and I are enthusiastic about homebrew. So I just wondered
why you don't hear people talk about those home kits anymore.
And I suspect it's probably because I suspect a lot

(51:12):
of it is because the enjoyment of alcohol is probably
the hype around the label in some ways, always surprise
them every time I go, every time I go anywhere,
how many people still drink corona? When did that become
such a out? When did that become the drink of
When did that become the new dB co? Okay, what's
going on there anyway? Twenty four past nine. If you

(51:34):
want to be a part of it, he'll twelve, Oh,
here we go, twenty six past nine. If you want
to be a part of the discussion tonight, be nice
to hear from your darts and home brew they go together.
I reckon, Marcus, if you're the players in christchitch on
the weekend report at the stadium as quite demanding to
play in Ventilation not great. The ball became very slippery
along with the ground humidity and temp increase free quickly

(51:58):
when the sun was out. It'll be a concern. So
the ventilation, that might be a thing. You think they
would have thought of that though. Your comments on that also,
and we are talking the stadium and Anzac day and
home brew kits? Did Dave say on battle bottle keeper?

(52:18):
Sounds like he gave it a fear nudge in his day,
didn't he, Dave? If you're storing it, if you're stacking
it in the roof, that's that's big time. There'd be
my take on that. Ooh, Marcus the guy talking about
the respect of the crowd at the christchich Stadium. Fair
enough read the Enzac commemoration, But what about the lack
of respect shown by that same crowd when the opposite
team was kicking a goal and booze echoed around the stadium?

(52:40):
Sure I didn't boo did they? On the opening of
the new stadium. Marcus just put down three meads after
processing some of my beekeeping capping and Berner. Honey, the
kids aren't really that good, Marcus. I've just put up
with Dezel at bp wyoudu it cost two eighty three eliter.
It's a bargain, Marcus. Today's the anniversary of the Cave

(53:01):
Creek platform collapse. I've heard nothing on the news remembering
this sad day rip Scott Murray and all that lost
their lives that day. Thank you, Marcus. Regards Craig, Thank
you Craig. And Craig's probably the same person that reminds
me every year. And I do know that sometimes I
have mentioned it, and survivors that are listening have have

(53:24):
brought it to my attention that they like not being
reminded of that. Yeah, Marcus, news flash, the Christi drugby
crowd are the worst in New Zealand for booing disgusting
you were. Maybe that's what they can turn the excitement
to the stadium and maybe they can turn them to
positively and stop booing. Oh anyway, Oha eight one hundred

(53:45):
and eighty ten eighty nine nine to text you want
to come through Hittel ten o'clock. Any other news for
around the world. I keep you posted with anyone want
to do? Anyone want to try talking about Yorkshire pudding
because someone explained to me what the concept of that
is not Yeah, I wouldn't mind knowing a little bit
more about that. Is it supposed to be cooked in

(54:06):
the from the roast. That's where I want to go
with that one, if you want to come through with that.
But anyway, we'll get some people on that. One hundred
and eleven now for Brent Crewd. So it's well up.
It's gone up about the last five days. There's no
solution seems to be imminent. The Chrost Church people in
their billing. Could I say that, I don't know how

(54:29):
we're even going to solve that, but I don't think
anyone enjoys. How can I say this in a charitable way.
It's going to be hard for me to say this.
I don't think of my words. No one's going to
think less of the christ Church people if they stop building.
That would be the most eloquate way I could say it.
And yeah, that could be one of the work ons.

(54:52):
Just put it out there. I didn't hear it. I
watched some sport in the weekend. I didn't watch that
very busy week and I watched the I watch the Sharks.
Southend Sharks saw off the tot on a team quite
convincingly interesting thing the local basketball because the local teams.
What happens with the local basketball as the teams they

(55:13):
start off battye then their peck of their imports and
their peck of their overseas players arrive and they start
getting it together. At the I think they're about five
games in, but gee, they played well. I think it
was about ninth on the ladder and beat the team
that was third or fourth, so they'll be up the charge.
So fairly good. Someone want a bike for the best banner.
It's pretty good, pretty good event. I don't know how
the crowd was, but it'll we built over the next
couple of coming weeks and months where we seem to

(55:35):
buy a season ticket seems to go quite well for us.
The old basketball. It's about the right length of time
from match to get in touch. Marcus till twelve oh
eight hundred and eighty to twenty nine two nine two dedict.
If you do want to come through anything goes here
till twelve o'clock. There's something else you want to talk
about mentioned that's good. I can handle it. Yorkshire put

(55:57):
is something I do want to talk about also, Marcus.
Worst sportsmanship at the weekend was during the moment silence
at the Warriors game when somebody yelled if the end
worse than any booing didn't come across on the TV coverage.
But I almost think that the I almost think that
the this will come across PEPs poorly. I almost think
that the NRL over does the antac day stuff. Something

(56:23):
says the worst uh Hawks, Bay, Canterbury and Taranaky crowds
are the worst at boeing. Really, although people are saying
it's not just christ Church. People remember the incident at
Edon Park with Quaid Cooper. I was at the Friday
night game. There wasn't boeing, and in fact New South
Wales scored some excellent tries. They got applause from everyone,

(56:44):
cheers Chris, Is that right? Or was there boeing? I'm
sure there was probably bowing, Chris.

Speaker 6 (56:49):
Let me know.

Speaker 3 (56:50):
Twenty six to ten, twenty four to ten home Brew?
I remember in Quaide Cooper, gosh, we brew one the organism.
We blew boo what we brew? One person? Once you guys, devil,
let us forget it, Marcus. One word to say about

(57:12):
home brewing sodium meta by sulfate. My first husband made
homebrewer us sodium meta by soul fate to sterilize the bottles.
It nearly killed me. Is a whole house filled with
the stuff, and one felt like one could not breathe.
Loll Your show brought back memories. The stuff was ghastly.
Give me a DV Brown any day. That's from Sherry.

(57:33):
Someone sent me a super recipe. Can tab still dark
about razor? I wonder will there any bring back razor banners?
Be a good thing to have there. I'll be up
for that, Lily. This is Marcus. Good evening, Hi Marcus.

Speaker 18 (57:48):
Can I before I talk about Yorkshire puddings? Can I
just paid tribute to Colin Thorn. Sure he was a
marathon runner. He was buried today one hundred and two,
but he did part from It's till one und and
he was He was renowned right throughout New Zealand.

Speaker 3 (58:09):
Fund A Morn's Colin Thorn one hundred and two year
old park run inspira. He looked good.

Speaker 18 (58:15):
Yeah, he was good. He was doing firewood you know
for four years and years as well. I mean he was.
He was a lovely old man.

Speaker 3 (58:22):
Wow are you a park runner?

Speaker 13 (58:25):
No?

Speaker 18 (58:26):
No, no, I just know him personally, I.

Speaker 3 (58:30):
Just read the stories of Okay, that's a great thing
to have.

Speaker 6 (58:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (58:34):
Was he a marathon runner as well? Did you say?

Speaker 19 (58:36):
Yes he was?

Speaker 18 (58:37):
Yes he was. He did it all around the world.

Speaker 3 (58:41):
I wouldn't mind knowing a bit more about him. Born
in Cambridge during the Great Depression, just trying to work
out amazing started late. It's sixty four sixty four fifty marathon,
one hundred and half marathons and did him quite well
as well, even with a knee replacement. Yes, yes, okay, God.

Speaker 18 (59:03):
But anyway about the Yorkshire puddings, Yes, we had them
growing growing up, and I still make them. But I
mean my grandparents were English and I think they had
them in England to sort of counteract the fact they
didn't have much meat.

Speaker 3 (59:19):
You're like an ex or something.

Speaker 18 (59:21):
Yeah, m but but they're very, very nice. I don't
make the big patty ones. I mean I make them
in a petty pan, and I don't cook them in fat.
I just spray a bit of you know, the spray
onto the pans and I cooked them like fat.

Speaker 3 (59:38):
So was okay. So they've they've come from tough times
and you want to make the meat go further and
do you use the oven tree you've cooked the meat
and to cook that and then cook it's a flower
egg mix that goes better. That goes into the hot
tin and with fat.

Speaker 18 (59:57):
They cook it in hot fat, but I don't use
the fat. I just make them in a patty pant
and petty pants and I'll make like a dozen at
a time and I'll shove them in the freezer. So
we'll just have a couple. I mean what, we don't
skimp on the meat.

Speaker 3 (01:00:10):
No, I'm not saying you'd to skimp on the meat.
It's probably not a bad thing to skimp on the
meat these days anyway.

Speaker 18 (01:00:16):
But we're in the farming community, so we don't.

Speaker 3 (01:00:21):
Have to skimp on my meat too with my two sheep,
bean and lamb. Anyway, So we'll be wanted.

Speaker 18 (01:00:26):
To ask you the other night you said that you
had black oysters, powers and tribe.

Speaker 3 (01:00:32):
Yes, so I wanted to know in what in what
order you had those together?

Speaker 18 (01:00:39):
You ate them all together?

Speaker 3 (01:00:41):
It was yeah. I went round for mate Keith and
we're trying to keep Keith occupied, and that's what he'd cooked.

Speaker 18 (01:00:50):
That sounds revolting.

Speaker 10 (01:00:51):
It was it?

Speaker 3 (01:00:52):
Well, you know, I said Keith said this some on
the pot and I had I had a pot full,
and before you know it, I was back for other
It was texturally delicious as well as tasting delicious. It
was extraordinary. I've never had that.

Speaker 18 (01:01:07):
The tripe was mixed up with it all in the yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:01:09):
Yeah, and it was quite generous with the oysters and
with the power.

Speaker 18 (01:01:13):
I just think it was a waste mixing it with
with a tripe.

Speaker 3 (01:01:16):
But anyway, I'm not that I do like tripe actually,
but you will never look it's but I could even
work out why someone makes such a song a dance
of tripe, because every time I've had it, mainly when
Keith's cocked it, it's always it always tastes there's nothing,
it's not overpowering with its flavor.

Speaker 18 (01:01:32):
No, it's not. No, but I quite like it in
white sauce.

Speaker 12 (01:01:35):
You know it's not.

Speaker 18 (01:01:37):
But my grandfather used to because he was English, and
he used to just like, because it's bleached, doesn't that
it's bleached and whatever.

Speaker 3 (01:01:44):
Otherwise.

Speaker 18 (01:01:45):
I think he used to just cut slices off and
then dip it in vinegar and eat it like that
raw raw. Yeah, well, I think it's been bleached and
sort of you know.

Speaker 3 (01:01:56):
So let me just just back to the Yorkshire pod, right, yeah,
So if you cook mutton, do you cook the pudding
in the fat that's come off the sheep during the cooking?

Speaker 18 (01:02:08):
Well, it's not actually a thing that the companies lamb. Okay,
it's a compliment to beef.

Speaker 3 (01:02:15):
Okay, so would you cook it?

Speaker 18 (01:02:17):
You know, you've only got a very nice raby when
you've got beef anyway, you know. Okay, So my mother
made it with everything because my father loved them.

Speaker 3 (01:02:27):
So you are getting the fat from the beef, are you?
Is that right?

Speaker 18 (01:02:32):
Yes? I mean that's the original thing. But as I said,
I don't use.

Speaker 3 (01:02:35):
Fat delicious though.

Speaker 1 (01:02:37):
Ay.

Speaker 18 (01:02:38):
Oh they're beautiful. I mean they're beautiful and with a
gravy on they're lovely on the side of beef and stuff.
They're beautiful.

Speaker 3 (01:02:44):
Okay, maybe we need to talk more about that. So
if anyone's got their own Yorkshire putting stories, I just
think it's something you've probably got some good wisdom with
us before we look. And I always like anything that
helps meat extender as we live in straight in time.
I mean, nothing snobbish about this show, is there. We're
not pretending to be people that we're not, Marcus. The
cafes that were charging sour charge and sad of money,
ridiculous getting two bites of the cherry. How are they

(01:03:05):
allowed to do that? Just well, they must have had
to pay their staff more both days. So that's why
I'm going. But we are talk Yorkshire pot that's my
that's my keen topic for tonight and home brewing. So
anything about Yorkshire I'd be keen to hear about. I
absolutely hated all that bearing of Quaid Cooper obviously as
Idol was. Carlos as a youngster was a great player. Yeah,
I hated it too. I always yeah, I always thought.

(01:03:27):
I always thought that we had dirt on our hands
with Quaid. I thought we over Yeah, so I always
thought he was hard done by us. Anyway, we've got
a topic. It's away seventeen to ten fifteen from ten, Maureen,
it's Marcus. Good evening.

Speaker 19 (01:03:41):
Oh hello, excuse my voice. I've got a bit of
a thing. But I felt I had to wring you
about the Yorkshire pudding because I'm Yorchire born and fad
lived there until I'm married and played New Zealand, and
so the Yorkshire pudding. The roaster's got to be first
as cooked, when it's taken out the fat and all

(01:04:03):
the ripping some things that are left in the hole
top pan. Then the mixture is poured in and baked
in there and then excuse me, and then when it's
ready or it just rises, it comes fluffy and beautiful,
and then it served as a great big, huge dish

(01:04:25):
on its own, a huge piece of Yorkshire pudding with
beautiful gravy. And then after that's been eaten, we have
had the roast and all the vegetables, and the actual
mixture for the pudding was just very simple egg and
water and flower and stuff, and that was left to

(01:04:48):
stand for an hour or a couple of hours before
it was cooked. There.

Speaker 3 (01:04:54):
Okay, and you're coming across clearly, Mauren to don't be
worried about your voice. I've just got a question for you. Yes,
So you cook your and that would be your you're
with string tied or pot roast of beef or something
like that. Is that right now?

Speaker 12 (01:05:12):
Well?

Speaker 19 (01:05:12):
Actually it was all this was. I was there through
the whole boar. I didn't leave England until after the war,
so it was a piece of beef whatever was okay.

Speaker 3 (01:05:24):
Whatever was So my question is something about timing, Maureen.
So once sure beef comes out and then you are
putting you're cooking the Yorkshire put in that tray, yes,
are then you're just letting the meat sit.

Speaker 19 (01:05:41):
Oh well, because it doesn't take long. Actually, yes, of
course we didn't have tin for in those teas. I'm thinking, no,
we didn't have tin for and I actually can't remember,
but it was perhaps left in then I wouldn't. I
can't remember that.

Speaker 3 (01:05:59):
It was beef, would no, But your beef would be
served hot.

Speaker 19 (01:06:04):
Oh, absolutely absolutely, And the gravy was always anuey. Perhaps
if the meat was had called down and litter, it
wouldn't really matter because there was always heats and heaps
of gravy. That was the large point about.

Speaker 20 (01:06:19):
Is the whole thing here, lovely?

Speaker 3 (01:06:21):
Thank you, Marien. I just always curious about the timing.
Some of maybe's got some more timing for that. Mats
ats Marcus, Good evening evening, Marcus.

Speaker 16 (01:06:28):
My mum used to.

Speaker 15 (01:06:29):
Make Yorkshire pudding gray up case she should.

Speaker 16 (01:06:33):
Come out in sixty seven. Yeah, as she should. Yeah,
with the Sunday roast, We're really lucky. It was really
but yeah, Moreen's right. There's two ways to make it.
Like you can make it either in the roast dish
the baking dish where you put the mixture in and

(01:06:53):
it makes one big piece the whole dish, and then
you cut it up into you know, block squares or
whatever rectangles usually, or you can pour it into like
a muff and tray and make it.

Speaker 5 (01:07:08):
With you know, a little little.

Speaker 3 (01:07:12):
That sounds like a modernor i like a big slabery.

Speaker 16 (01:07:15):
Yeah, yeah, that's traditional cut. But the point is I'm
not so sure. More when you have your roast cooked
and you take the meat out and you've got all
the juices and the fats and that in the tray,
usually you would use that like tradition for making the gravy,
like you'd put some flour and water and mat stir

(01:07:35):
it up all that that would make the gravy. More
you'd normally use a Yorkshire putting mat like you'd make
a mix up like That's so you don't need to
use all the all the fats up because often people
use that for the gravy, right, and so you can't
use it for both.

Speaker 3 (01:07:53):
Maybe it was really fetty during the war.

Speaker 16 (01:07:57):
Yeah, yeah, So while the meat sitting you do that.
But yeah, if so, if you're making gravy from that,
you wouldn't you just use the Yorkshire putting mats. Yeah,
after doing the gravy, because the gravy and the tray,
you know how you do that. You're just throwing a
bit of flower, a lot of water and boil ladder

(01:08:18):
and yeah, that uses all that up and then you've
got your separate Yorkshire rock. See there's two ways and
two two the size of it, the round ones or
the whole one on the tray. Yeah, it's made me.
I'm going to get the recipe off my mum tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (01:08:35):
Have you even done it recently?

Speaker 10 (01:08:37):
Have you?

Speaker 13 (01:08:38):
No?

Speaker 16 (01:08:39):
I haven't ever made them myself.

Speaker 3 (01:08:41):
Oh, Jeep was mad.

Speaker 16 (01:08:42):
I told I do a good roast. Well, it's just
motivating me.

Speaker 3 (01:08:47):
I thought everyone out there was doing it, not talking
about I didn't realize you just some of you were.

Speaker 16 (01:08:52):
No, I just remembered, and that's triggered me to I'll
get the recipe tomorrow and get into it.

Speaker 3 (01:08:57):
Yes, the spirit, Oh no, I think I mean. I
made my first dune on Sunday on Monday, I think
it was. It went surprising well, but yeah, I wasn't.
I'd sort of done it roundabout way, which is not
important to the story, but I it was successful enough
that I think this might be my signature dish. But
then again, I I don't know that is a signature dish,

(01:09:20):
but yeah, I just I'm into it. Matt, nice to talk.
Thank you, ninety ten Richard. This is Marcus.

Speaker 6 (01:09:27):
Welcome, Welcome, Hi Marcus, good morning from Liverpool in the UK.
There we go.

Speaker 3 (01:09:32):
Now we're cooking with gas.

Speaker 6 (01:09:35):
Now you're cooking with gas. Hey, I'm on vacation over here.
But I'm hearing you talking about traffic lights, hearing you
talking about Yorkshire puddings, which have been a real staple
in our family for years, and I had to learn
how to cook them myself after Mum and Grandma are
all passed away. So the recipe I use is Mary
Berry's recipe, which is really I love.

Speaker 3 (01:09:55):
And she's all class.

Speaker 6 (01:09:59):
Yeah anyway, yes, she's all class. She's all class. But
the trick you've got to do is let the better
stand and so lea that leave it in the fridge
overnight or for at least a couple of hours so
that it just sets, and make sure that.

Speaker 3 (01:10:15):
Is your better flour and egg and baking powder. Is
that mainly what it is?

Speaker 6 (01:10:19):
Yeah, And a bit of milk, cattle and simple just
real real staples that they had in those days to
fill you up. Just let it, let it cecil, don't
keep stirring it, and just give it a quick whisk
before you pour it into the piping hot oil or fat,
whatever you're going to use. I find that the oil,
just a vegetable oil, works really well. Teaspoon if you're

(01:10:42):
doing it in Muffington's just a teaspoon. And then each
muffington spends.

Speaker 12 (01:10:45):
What you want.

Speaker 6 (01:10:45):
If you want a big one or a little one.
Do you want to make like toad in the whole?
Make a great big one and then chuck your sausages
in a delicious smothering an onion gravy.

Speaker 5 (01:10:55):
Oh beautiful.

Speaker 3 (01:10:56):
But the theory that the theory was that the theory
was that was cooked on the actual fat that came
out of the meat.

Speaker 9 (01:11:02):
Is that right?

Speaker 6 (01:11:04):
Yeah, it probably was, But as times progressed, it was
done separately. And these days we cooked them and chucked
them in the freezer and then just whip them out
when you want, when you want one, you know, with
your roast dinner or something. It's really as simple. They
freeze really well in the UK over here? Does that
you find on the frozen section?

Speaker 3 (01:11:21):
That that does sound wrong to me? What's your store?
Is it called Iceland? Is that the story all the
frozen goods are in? Yeah, it is.

Speaker 6 (01:11:30):
But you see them in Tesco, you see them in Aldie,
you see them in as To. Everyone sells Yorkshire puddings.

Speaker 3 (01:11:36):
So if you went, if you went to a roast shop,
if you went for a roast shop on Liverpool, you
get Yorkshire pudding with it?

Speaker 13 (01:11:41):
Is that right?

Speaker 6 (01:11:43):
Yeah? We had one the other day and actually I've
got to say it wasn't as good as the one
I make, but you know it was probably a shop,
probably a shop bought one that they buy and frozen.
But yeah, I had a bit of a contest with
a friend of mine back home because he could make
the best ones, and yeah, who's turned into hockey pucks?
They didn't rise, So yeah, obviously I can. Obviously I

(01:12:05):
can make them.

Speaker 3 (01:12:07):
Because once you try a roast with one, why would
you try a roast without one?

Speaker 6 (01:12:12):
Exactly right and smothered and gravy. You know, it's it's
almost better than having the meat.

Speaker 3 (01:12:19):
Yeah, it's always it's almost better than what.

Speaker 6 (01:12:21):
Richard having the roast meat.

Speaker 3 (01:12:25):
I agree, I agree. Yeah, we did a top five.
I cooked the rist I had everyone to rate the
top five and number one was the what was the
Yorks from the whole family? Four out of four?

Speaker 6 (01:12:37):
Yeah, you got to You've got to remember to have
your peas as well though, peas and gravy.

Speaker 3 (01:12:41):
We didn't have the We had the lot, very very good,
not a nothing left on any plate. And that's not
what always happened in our family. Richard, go, well, thank you.
I don't think we've actually had a call from Liverpool before,
not knowingly. By the way, I'm happy talking about Yorkshire pudding.

(01:13:04):
Toad in the hole feels like a step too far
from me. I don't know why. I just feel it's
I've never liked the name of it, but anything to
do with Yorkshire, I don't know. You know what I'm
going to say this when that guy rang from Liverpool,
I don't even know where Yorkshire is. I mean, I
know what country, I don't know what cities I presume,
I presume. Let me just have a look at map

(01:13:25):
of Yorkshire. I need to do that. Oh, it's there.
It's there. Oh okay. So it's on the other side
of Leeds in Blackpool. Sorry, it's on the other side
of Liverpool and Blackpool. It leads is the center of
Yorkshire and the Moors, Leeds, Hull, Scarborough. It's the leat
rugby league country in it. So that's Yorkshire. Don kester anyway,
get in touch. Thanks for hanging on, Rider, It's Marcus. Welcome,

(01:13:50):
Thank you rider the excellent.

Speaker 13 (01:13:53):
By the way, the pronunciation for Hull as as you is? It?

Speaker 6 (01:13:57):
Really?

Speaker 3 (01:14:00):
Is it an iron? What am I making? An iron? O?
It's more like, oh, isn't it?

Speaker 13 (01:14:06):
It is a two part story, really like I've got
Yorkshire parents in Yorkshire grandparents and here here in New Zealand.
My grandparents came over and they used to cook a
Yorkshire pudding and essentially Muffington's on a Sunday night and
we used to walk down the road there to their

(01:14:27):
place and they were absolutely magic. But these muffingtons had
been brought over by my grandmother and they were black.
They were black like they'd never been cleaned. But my
grandmother said, never clean a Yorkshire pudding tin, leave them
to blacken out and that's the best type of tin.

(01:14:48):
And she used to cook it literally smoking hot out
of the oven. All the trades that preheat, the trade
for the the mixture, and then a couple of minutes later,
these magnificent york she used to come out. So that's
the first part of the story. I met a Yorkshire
fella up at the prospect of how years ago and

(01:15:09):
he said, oh, come over and stay with me and
Bradford and I did, and we we went over there
and every Sunday his mum used to cook us a
fantastic Yorkshire, but not in a cupcake, and put in
a bread and one each and when it came out

(01:15:30):
of the oven, she used to sort of score the
top of it and then pour a cup of hot
onion gravy into this Yorkshire and it was just magnificent.
And when I when I heard you talking about Yorkshire,
I knew I needed to call and talk about my story.

Speaker 3 (01:15:45):
So good, And that's the beauty of the prospect. You
meet a guy there, you know, I go half around
the world and get a good Yorkshire, couldn't you? That's
the story. Well, what's your grandmother? Are we talking in Orkrond?
When we walked down the house to her, to her
York is it we're talking? Okay? Yeah, it wasn't n
cole range though she's doing it in an oven.

Speaker 19 (01:16:04):
Right, she she did.

Speaker 13 (01:16:09):
Much to her discussed. I think she came off a
whole an old coal range and Doncaster. You'd already mentioned that,
to an electric electric oven, which she really didn't enjoy.
But you could still cook a mean Yorkshire no question
about that. So good.

Speaker 3 (01:16:27):
It's amazing those people that came all that way. And
then I mean, why wouldn't you, Why wouldn't you eat
the same food? But it seemed extraordinary?

Speaker 13 (01:16:33):
Wow, yeah it was. It was too good. And I've
given her a shot myself, but I just can't get
my hands on a set of decent.

Speaker 3 (01:16:42):
Black Well what about what about hers?

Speaker 13 (01:16:46):
Now? They went to my sister, so I pulled out.

Speaker 3 (01:16:48):
Of course, how sexist is that that she got them?

Speaker 5 (01:16:51):
Really?

Speaker 3 (01:16:52):
So she had first DIBs?

Speaker 13 (01:16:54):
Yeah, pretty much?

Speaker 3 (01:16:55):
Okay, good stories, right, thank you're talking about Yorkshire pot Now,
come on, people, we'll get a whole week out of this.
Of the old days. So you're as it seems to me,
if there's anything I can say about this, there is
a lot of local variation. I've got a lot of text,
but I enjoy the voices, the voices. It's not like

(01:17:17):
a narn bread, really is that if you want to
get I guess that all these things fulfill the same criteria.
It's like a giant narn. But that's what we are
talking Yorkshire pudding. Although people are saying make Yorkies often
nearly weakly. You need a fat oil that gets hot
enough before adding the better. These days I use Jamie
Oliver's recipe equal parts egg, flour and milk. It wouldn't

(01:17:42):
be old. He'd have no qualms about pretending he was
from Yorkshire. Old the mock me, would he? So apparently
toad in the whole. Someone better explain that to me.
I don't it sounds. I presume it's just better with
sausages tossed and for good measure, which sounds to me
neither use nor ornament. So Yorkshire pod you'll be making them.

(01:18:02):
You'll be some of your curling in your grave when
you think what other people are saying should make. So
what I want to know, what I did want to
know is what the key to Yorkshire putting? And I
presume what it is it's a better that's cooked in
a very hot container that has fat in it, and
I don't quite know what the cooking process entails. It

(01:18:24):
must be done at a high heat to cause it
to rise and do everything quite quickly. So if you've
got something, if you've got something to add about this
as a topic extender, that's the plan. I'm sticking with it.
It's slightly more well subscribed than a homebrewer. That's also
a good thing if you want to be a part
of it. Eight hundred and eighty ten eighty to text

(01:18:46):
nine two nine two and to email Marcussett usedtalk zb
dot co dot NZ. Yeah, text nine two nine two M.
Although I did hear Jack tame, he says text ninety
two ninety two.

Speaker 12 (01:19:04):
I don't ever.

Speaker 3 (01:19:05):
Allowed to say that flip in the weekend. It's your
own rules, isn't it ninety two ninety two. Text on that, Oh,
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty fifteen past. It's all
about Yorkshire pud for this first bit. Second bit Fanny
hear walkong song been rocking all over the world. Oh yes,
if you want to talk, that's the plan. Oh eight

(01:19:26):
hundred eighty ten eighty and nine to nine two to text.
If you want to be a part of it, here
till twelve people. There's anything else you've got, I'm here
for you. Sixteen past ten hit'll twelve minamers Marcus good
eving Yorkshire put or anything else. The lines are free
if there is something different you want to mention. Tonight
we're also talking about how good was that stadium? And

(01:19:46):
how good was christ Church? No bad news stories, no crime, nothing,
How good is that? And also to Anzac David, mainly
on Yorkshire pods. Marcus. We used to get Yorkshire putting
at boarding school when younger, twenty five years ago, maybe
once a month or every three weeks, and would always
fight over them. So good, so good with a grave
anity read meat dinner. I wonder why you can't see

(01:20:08):
them or at the roast place. They are at takeaway places, Marcus.
For those who have left over Yorkshire pudding, I mean
really leftovers, we used to put butter on them and
sprinkled with sugar and having a dessert. I cooked my
Yorksha's in a muffin tin and put on a tiny
amount of fresh thyme on simply delicious. Marcus tote in

(01:20:29):
the hole has made the same way, but with better
as Yorkie same better from fridge hot hot band. Kids
sometimes forget to eat the sausage. Marcus, the mother of
my English son in law who lives in Leeds, always
leaves the Yorkshire batter outside of the house to let
it prove in the Yorkshire air. True story, and the
result is always better than if she didn't. Marcus. Aunt

(01:20:53):
Betty's frozen Yorkies are rapable if you can't be bother
making them from a scratch. But they're so easy to
make from scratch. Tote in the hole is mashed potato
with sausages poking. I don't think it is. I don't
think it's mashed potato. My mother used to heat dripping
that you had collected it previously in the loaf tin
until it was smoking, then poured the batter into it

(01:21:13):
and it would puffer instantly and cook. I hated the
dripping tin. It sat in the cupboard and was used
for everything we would use oil for these days. Gilly
mother used to put dollups of Yorkshire putting mixture on
top of the stew after we've been cooking while in
the oven. Then the Yorkshire putting took on a lot
of the flavors of this stew. Marcus, my Welsh father
always made the best. He used lard, dripping you by

(01:21:34):
in a tub in the meat department. Beef always needs
to rest after cooking, toad in the whole. Sausages in
Yorkshire putting batter served with gravy grate in the air fryer.
Mom used to make for us when we were kids.
Our kids love it too. Jim cook the mixture and
a cast iron pound the oven, so it's effectively the
sards size of a large wrap or a large pitter,
while up with slices of roast beef, horseraddish and gravy.

(01:21:57):
Dutch Baby is the Yorkshire mix flour buttered eggs praw
into a bit of hot melted butter into the hot
oven puff up, served maple syrup. Yorkshire puddings were served
as a first course before the meat. This allowed the
cheap pudding in gravy to fill people up when they
required less of the expensive meat for the main course. Well,
the great things will come for an adversity anyway, that's

(01:22:19):
what we are talking about. Three one past ten, looking
forward to your calls. You want to add to this
or anything else. How are you enjoying Treasure Island? Where's
that film? By the way, I just asked that. I'm
sure we asked it last time and someone told us.
Wendy says Yorkshire pudding can be made using a cake
ring tin when you are not cooking a roast. Use
a cooking oil instead of meat, juice and fat. Add

(01:22:40):
a teaspoon of marmite to the oil while it's warming.
When is melted to the heat, oil carefully pour the
better over the oil. The pudding will rise up well
in the ring tin. Common parts of England is to
eat Yorkshire pudding with jam or chutney. I used to
make it this way to go with casseroles or a
savory Ministers for my kids at winter. Edmonds did ever

(01:23:01):
recipe for it, but I don't know if it's in
their more recent additions. Twenty two past ten o'clock. Marcus
is the name head or twelve o'clock looking for to
your calls tonight, and I really would encourage you to
give me a holand now about Yorkshire pudding because this
is the This is not a topic that's going to
come back. This is a once and a ten year
topic or anything else. You are welcome to to all.

(01:23:21):
But but I think this is the main one for
Tonight eight hundred eighty and nine text anything else you
want to have a go around with Tonight. By the way,
in Japan now the baggage handlers at the airport's robots.
So yep, labor shortage increased tourism robots and actually robots

(01:23:44):
look like people, which is weird, isn't it. I don't
mind robots, but robots that look like humans don't like it.
Dennis said. Kidney toad is the best replaced sausages with
kidney a special treat when Mum came from England for
a visit, Willie, this is Marcus.

Speaker 21 (01:24:04):
Welcome Margus Sponge to here. Before I was in the
fire Service when I was talking about the uh the
Ramba Warrior incident. But one time we went over to
the Sheffield for the Firefighter Games and we went up
to a place called home Firth, which was they they

(01:24:24):
did a lot of filming for the Last of the
Summer Line.

Speaker 3 (01:24:27):
Yeah, would picturesque town because it was a beautiful wasn't it.

Speaker 21 (01:24:31):
Yeah, it was magnificent. They had, you know, all these
stone buildings. They had a canal the river boats, but
they had Sid's Cafe there we can go get some
photos taken all the rest of the jazz and we
went across the road to it was a station hotel
and you could buy you know, sausage and gravy, beggars

(01:24:52):
and marsh or beef and gravy. But it was all
served in the Yorkshire pudding. The bowl was the actually
Yorkshire pudding, so you sort of live around the top
and go around the bottom. Was absolutely magnificent.

Speaker 3 (01:25:03):
What a great idea. So that's and that. And for
those at home, Holme Firth h O l m if
I it is right.

Speaker 9 (01:25:11):
It is in York.

Speaker 3 (01:25:12):
It's in the about near the boundary of Yorkshire. It
is definitely Yorkshire, isn't it.

Speaker 12 (01:25:16):
Yeah it was.

Speaker 21 (01:25:17):
It was about half of the out of Sheffield.

Speaker 3 (01:25:20):
Were you there competing?

Speaker 10 (01:25:22):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:25:23):
Oh good life for some Yeah who was not bad?
Well what with like firefighter games?

Speaker 21 (01:25:29):
Yeah yeah, I used to truck radio, table tennis, anything else.
It came along brilliant.

Speaker 3 (01:25:36):
Did you did you get a win?

Speaker 21 (01:25:38):
A couple of times?

Speaker 19 (01:25:39):
God?

Speaker 3 (01:25:39):
Okay, well you won with your Yorkshire put? Well you

people Marcus plate sized Yorkshire pudding back at the pub
of New York delicious. Oh there's a photo. I thought
that email was a bit let lust of it. There's
a picture that comes with it. Where would that go?
It says, downloading? Whe would that picture go? Dan, It's

(01:26:02):
gone up to the top of this. Oh here it is,
look at me and download history. Oh wow, jeepers, look
at that. Wow, it's like the Yorkshire PUDs become the plate.
It's a nice watch. But a carrot, not roast, the
carrots boiled, but a broccoli and a bit of chevrol

(01:26:23):
or something there. And I don't know what the bressacre is.
Looks good though, twenty six past nine. If you got
to come through, it's Yorkshire pod oh way eight one
hundred and eighty ten eighty ten nine past ten. Next
in Japan it will be robots traveling checked in by robots.
You're not wrong, Marcus, You're cool out a valid point.

(01:26:45):
My daughter Whilston, you wiltchiir uk cooked in local pub
and mix the Yorky batter outside of their hot kitchen.
I don't know what the putting in the Someone can
tell me what putting the fridge does to it. I
don't fully understand that. Back home, she mixed the batter
out of our deck home in rural New Zealand with
more fresh air than hot dinners. We thought it was hilarious,
but the Yorkshire PUDs were delicious. I buy PAMs from

(01:27:06):
in Yorkshire Puddings brilliant. Take a cup out of the freezer,
pop them in the toaster and kaboom and the toaster.

Speaker 10 (01:27:13):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (01:27:13):
It must be a narrow little thing. There must be
difficult programming the baggage handing robots to smash the wheels
off and crack the suitcases. They'll find a way. Evening, Marcus.
This weekend being York City beat my beloved Roshdale in
an incredible final in the English National title in the
fifth tier of the football pyramid. Up the Dale. Oh,

(01:27:34):
well done you brilliant up the Dale. Hanging there, Carol.
I'll be with you soon, Carol. This is Marcus.

Speaker 7 (01:27:42):
Good evening, Oh Marcus, this is Carol from Cambridge and
New Zealand. But I went for my honeymoon up at Buxton,
which is very near home first, which is where the
last of the summer wine was filmed up there, and
that's right Dad's Center of York Shirts. And we went

(01:28:02):
to this We have marvelous Yorkshire puddings at the toe
where we stayed, and I go a word with a
chef and he said the trigger is, he said, you
cook your meat in the big pan, and then you
get that oven really cooking up to about two hundred
twenty cent grade or something, and then you tip, you

(01:28:24):
make your your better, and you the great important thing
is is to use icy water, very cold water to
pop in to make the better, and then you leave
it for the bubbles to start coming. And then you
shoot the fat out of the meat pan, which is
basically meat dripping into the hot pan and tipping the

(01:28:48):
better and it goes poof and it all just comes.
It just beautiful, and it's got that lovely meat flavor
because it's in the meat. Eat the meat dripping that
you used to cook it in. And that was really great.
And he said that was a really auctionman.

Speaker 3 (01:29:05):
So you'd you'd be cooking them and you'd hate the
pain in the oven while you're cooking the meat as well,
would you igue.

Speaker 7 (01:29:11):
That's correct. And so as soon as you've got your
better done with icy water in it so that it
keeps it really cold, put it in the fridge until
the bubbles start to form at the top, which is
probably about five minutes or something, and then you're ready
to cook. It's all one smooth movement. Just tip the

(01:29:34):
fat into the hot pan and put the milk you're
putting better in and has got it and it's absolutely
wonderful and just pops up. It's just amazing.

Speaker 3 (01:29:45):
When you hit your honeymoon, there were you in England
at the time as well?

Speaker 19 (01:29:49):
Yes, okay, that's right.

Speaker 7 (01:29:51):
Yeah, it was beautiful up there. Anybody who wants to
see what the countryside is like, they need to have
a look at the series of Last the Summer Wine.
I think it's still running on some.

Speaker 3 (01:30:04):
Running endlessly. Can I just ask you a question, Carol,
Why do the bubble start because it's just flour, eggs
and milk. Why does it start bubbling?

Speaker 1 (01:30:13):
Do you know?

Speaker 7 (01:30:14):
Well, because you use self raising flowers, I'll.

Speaker 3 (01:30:17):
Do you because I've seen the recipes. I've seen it
doesn't say self raising, so that's why.

Speaker 7 (01:30:21):
Okay, flower, Well, if you've only got plane flowers, you're
shoot a bit of baking plover in there. Look, it's
basically a French pilot, an English pilot.

Speaker 3 (01:30:34):
That's a good way to describe.

Speaker 7 (01:30:35):
It, piet tendency. But the great thing is is to
have it as cold as you can and get the
dripping as hot as you can get it in the pan,
and then when you combine the two there's that wonderful explosion.

Speaker 3 (01:30:51):
What year we talking? I mean I think we're talking before.
I think we're talking before. So we're talking before last
the summer wine was made? Don't you would? But you weren't.
You weren't going there because of lasted the summer wine,
were you? Because? Okay, okay, fair enough.

Speaker 7 (01:31:13):
I went to Yorkshire for the honeymoon. That's a decent
age days from when I was watching the first last year.

Speaker 3 (01:31:22):
You recognized it.

Speaker 7 (01:31:23):
I recognized Hell. That's where we had our honeymoon.

Speaker 3 (01:31:28):
Very good, Okay, summer mine, Thank you, Carol, Very good,
Carol the cracker packer. Get in touch people. My name
is Marcus. Welcome Marcus. You make me chuckle tonight as
knowing what the sun is. Every time you say Yorkie,
I pitch little dogs any Yorkie for fifteen years. Never
eat in New Yorkshire put well the Yorkshire tearies and

(01:31:48):
the Yorkshire pudding. Would they I've never had a toad
in the hole, and I don't think I've missed out
on anything. To me, that's not cocking. That's just because
because I've never known, I've always think I had a
toad in the hole mixed up with I mean, we
never really know. I think I probably had mixed up
in my mind with flip, I don't know what with

(01:32:08):
probably Scotch egg and Welsh rear bit. But yeah, now
I'm just realizing the toad in the hole. It always
sounds a bit. It sounds a bit. Oh yeah, it
looks garsy in the pictures. I'm just trying to think
what it sounds like when I when I hear toad,
I think of you know that, what are those the

(01:32:30):
stories with toad in anyway? But getting touch of you
on to talk, my name is Marcus welcome o. Wait
hundred eighty ty nine to de text your Winden in
the willows is what I'm thinking of. That's where I
think about toad and toad in the hole. I kept
thinking of toad and wind and the willows, which I
never enjoyed. Really was freaked out by talking animals as

(01:32:51):
a child. Get in touch. It's what we are talk about.
Yorkshire pudding delicious, but fancy cooking them in a coaster,
so a be of toaster than we've got our forever toaster. Hey,
good evening people, my name is Marcus. We are talking
about Yorkshire pudding and whether it's still worth buying those
home brew kits. We're also talking about the christ Church Stadium.

(01:33:12):
Did they boo people? Did they boo the opposition when
they went to ket because that would have been a
great opportunity to not boo people, but booing they did apparently. Oh,
someone sent me a picture of a must in Auckland
Yorkshire pudding. I'm just trying to open the very slow file.

(01:33:33):
There's a British food truck called the Grub, so I'm
just looking at on this is quite this looks quite good.
So there's a food truck in Auckland called the Grub
and they're on Facebook. So you just go to grub.
I just grubs post and it's a British food truck.
Seems to hang out in Pamua, Mount Wellington, Ellersley's Stonefields

(01:33:56):
call Himatama, Mission Bay and out East and they serve
Yorkshire pudding roast wraps and it looks next level, so
it's like a pittibriate. It's like one of those things
you get when you know, those reps you get from
the Lebanese place, but it's it looks good anyway. I

(01:34:17):
can't fully describe it traditional beef Yorkshire putting rep or
a cauliflowered cheese Yorkshire putting rep for the vegetarians well
with cheese twenty two away from eleven o'clock head on midnight.
Hello evening, Michayla. It's Marcus. Welcome, Hi Marcus.

Speaker 10 (01:34:36):
How I'm just talking about Yorkshire putting too. I've got
the read to be here in the Edmund's Cookbook. One
of them I've got. I've had four of them. It's
all different years of the Edmund's Cookbook and it's quite
straightforward and I can remember having it every just about

(01:35:00):
every Sunday roast. We'd have either a muffin or a
beef and we had debt was the beef?

Speaker 3 (01:35:08):
Have you got the Edwin's book there with you?

Speaker 10 (01:35:12):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (01:35:12):
Has it got baking powdering?

Speaker 10 (01:35:14):
Well, this one has a standard plane flour, and now
we did it say that one cup of Champion plane flare,
half teaspoon of salt, two eggs, half cup of milk,
two tablespoons of water, and two tablespoons of beat. No,
it doesn't even have.

Speaker 3 (01:35:35):
No, it doesn't has because none of the recipes I
looked at Mary Berry's and m Jamie Olivers didn't have
baking powders. That's why I can't work out why she's
talked about the bubbles. Maybe that was a different variation
when they put baking because I didn't see any bubbles
in mine.

Speaker 13 (01:35:50):
No.

Speaker 10 (01:35:51):
I used to watch one cook it here and it
was absolutely delicious.

Speaker 11 (01:35:57):
What would she cook it?

Speaker 3 (01:35:58):
And would she cook it in a hot pan or
would she cook it in something else?

Speaker 10 (01:36:02):
I'm trying to remember. I'm sure she just put it
on the disk that the meat was cooking in.

Speaker 3 (01:36:10):
Yeah, that's what I would imagine. I had a grandmother
who was Welsh, and you know, I never really understood
that she probably come out from Wales as a young mother.
I never really took much, but I think in Wales
they would have cooked something quite similar, because it was
something that she would cook quite often and cooked feeling well.
But I never really sort of thought that was any

(01:36:31):
great cuisine from home. But it was delicious.

Speaker 10 (01:36:34):
Yes, this was delicious too. Yes, thanks for that, Marcus.

Speaker 3 (01:36:38):
Have you made it lately?

Speaker 18 (01:36:40):
No?

Speaker 10 (01:36:40):
I haven't. Why not? I think we'll have it at
Christmas time.

Speaker 3 (01:36:45):
That'd be great at Christmas roasting.

Speaker 10 (01:36:48):
Now for our Christmas I used to everyone every week,
But now that I'm retired and I haven't got Mum
and Dad backing me up anymore, I find that I
don't know. I can only we put them together, my

(01:37:08):
neighbors and I and we all have Christmas together. Yeah,
and I think people.

Speaker 3 (01:37:15):
Are I think people are eating less meat, aren't they?

Speaker 10 (01:37:18):
Well, yes, but this genetic modified meat that I'm worried about,
of course, the old GMO, Yeah yeah, what's going to
happen will end up on that?

Speaker 3 (01:37:29):
Well, maybe you could just take Yorkshire putting along to
your Christmas chaired Christmas thing. This could be that could
be your your signature dish this time you would need
to eat the meat.

Speaker 10 (01:37:38):
Yes, well, yeah, yeah, you know I think that.

Speaker 3 (01:37:44):
I think despite Edmund's been overseas owned, I think the
cockbook is still good. I had the I bought the
kids copies recently and they've quite enjoyed making quite a
lot of it. It's still the recipes are still tried
and we haven't come across a dud recipe yet.

Speaker 15 (01:38:01):
No.

Speaker 10 (01:38:02):
No, I've given one to my son and ors and
theatre of them.

Speaker 3 (01:38:10):
Yeah, oh they should be Treasha. Yeah, nice to talk
with kaind of thanks so much of that. I think
probably the macaroni cheese should come with some sort of warning.
It's it's impossible to not eat. It's like, anyway, how
are you going? People in this land? We are talk
about Yorkshire putting. I'll get the text before too long
when I can be can get to them if you

(01:38:31):
want to talk on here, that's the plan. Stand we
are talking Yorkshire puddings. But that topic is not exhaustive.
It's not you know, you can if there's other stuff
you want to talk about. I can handle that. I
can handle the gendle. But that's mainly way. I like
it because I like to talk about food because it
makes you feel so even looking at the pictures of
it looks so delicious. En Zac Day is another topic

(01:38:52):
and it was special down and as I said earlier,
now on Bluff. It's always it's good in small communities.
What actually happened was one of them at the primary
school and Bluff, a couple of the children were chosen
to interview a former soldier about his time and combat

(01:39:14):
and his life. And that was the address. That was
the main address for the Enxact Day service. And my
boy Denver got to do that and he was, yeah,
it was, he was. There was you know, he's not
a how do I describe this, He's not someone that

(01:39:35):
you know, he's a he's a humorous kind of a
lad and quite a reverent and I didn't think he'd
follow through and do it, but he interviewed the guy
and wrote the speech and did it and it was
it was, Yeah, it was. It was. I mean obviously
that the RSA drove that to have young people to
talk about interviewing old people rather having the old people

(01:39:58):
talk about their own experiences, to put a different I
thought it was quite a successful initiative. I thought it
was quite moving. So that's the situation there. He did
for every well, and just beautiful and Bluff too, because
you've got the war memorial with the sea in the
background and sort of there was a bit of a
sea on and then the cannon went off and the
birds all took off. I mean it was spectacular. So yeah,

(01:40:19):
it was a good, good antactape. Remind me to go
to more of them. Anyway, enough about that, we are
talking Yorkshire pud thirteen to eleven. If you want to
talk eight hundred and eighty ten eighty and nine two
nine two to text ten away from eleven o'clock. You've
got to get through before the news. Eleven o'clock would
love to hear from you ninety two ninety two to
text all about Yorkshire putting. Let me get to these

(01:40:39):
texts as I wait your more calls on this baking
powder and baking said, I'm not quite sure about that
pigging a blanket. You're getting confused. What is piging a blanket? Yeah,
I am getting confused with that. I think there's a
sausage and bread as I don't know. Actually, I've got
no idea Yorkshire putting. Aunt Daisy's recipe book states ice
cold water, leave mixture for a time. I'm poored to

(01:41:00):
a very hot fat all these days make mine and
patty pans and they tune up beautifully. Would Why would
you buy them so simple to make. By the way,
aren't daisy? Recipes are still good as well as are
your hints. Oh yeah, proper scott jig. Now that's a
good and I used to make them when I worked
in a bakery years ago. My hubby was big as

(01:41:21):
big me for years to make them. Truth, be tolerally
hate the feel of the part when you shape the
meat around the egg. Yes, I'm not a big fan
of cold mints in your hands now, I want to
cook Yorkshire pudding tomorrow night, will do? Stephen says robotics
sport teams. Do you think it may happen one day?
It's a really good idea. I mean, they've already got
robots racing each other. Why wouldn't have them playing rugby?

(01:41:43):
They've got them playing table tennis, and you've got robot
Wars with it. I'd watch robots box. I'm all about
the robots. Yeah, I to robot Wars getting touched nine
away from eleven o'clock you're at Yorkshire putting or anything
else that's the planned. People would love to hear from you.
Oh eight hundred and eighty ODI nine two nine to
detext also the stadium in Christ Jurich. How was that?

(01:42:06):
And I'd like to acknowledge the behavior of the people
from Christ to each other. It'll be headlines of a
drunken melly, but people have very well behaved, behaved thought
the occasion might be too much for them. But no
no stories at all about anything untowards so hats off
to you for that. But be in touch mainly if

(01:42:27):
you want to be a part before the news at
eleven o'clock, would love to hear from you, as I've said,
ninety two ninety two to text, and you might have
some takeouts from the ANZAC service that you might want
to mention. Yeah, what you'd say about that, but always
good to get a new angle on that one. And
if you want to be on air, as I've said,

(01:42:47):
that's the planned people huntil twelve o'clock tonight, So yep,
oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty nine to text.
So there's a few topics for you for tonight. If
you've got something else, that's all good. Would be up
for what you've got to say. And there might be
something entirely different you want to talk about. There might
be some local outrage. You've got these topics are just congestions.

(01:43:07):
You've got other stuff that's more important. I can handle that, Logan.
This is Marcus. Thanks for calling and welcome.

Speaker 5 (01:43:15):
Hey Marcus. How's it going good?

Speaker 3 (01:43:16):
Thank you, Logan.

Speaker 5 (01:43:19):
I just wanted to talk about Yorkshire footing.

Speaker 3 (01:43:21):
Great he rung the right show.

Speaker 5 (01:43:25):
I've never had it before.

Speaker 6 (01:43:27):
What do you?

Speaker 3 (01:43:29):
Why have you never heard it?

Speaker 5 (01:43:32):
I just feel like it's not a New Zealand.

Speaker 3 (01:43:34):
No, you're probably you're probably right. You're probably under forty,
are you. I just thought everyone would have tried it
at grandma's. Don't tell me, don't tell me. I haven't
got a grandmother.

Speaker 5 (01:43:44):
No, I thought it's still around.

Speaker 3 (01:43:46):
Okay, So it's it's like if you have a roast
meal with like beef and potatoes and gravy and peas,
and it's just like.

Speaker 10 (01:43:59):
It's like a.

Speaker 3 (01:44:01):
I guess it's just like a bit of bread, but
it's it's kind of got a it's got edges and
because it's cooked out. Yeah, it's a pudding that's not sweet.

Speaker 5 (01:44:11):
Is it good as like a healthy pudding?

Speaker 3 (01:44:12):
Then no, because it's cooked and fat. But now but
now it's cooked in oil, so it's more healthy. So no,
it's not good for you. Oh that's what. Yeah, No,
you must look. I will find out for your logan.

(01:44:33):
I will try out between now and the end of time,
I'll find out whether you can. Have you got an
air fryer?

Speaker 15 (01:44:38):
We do, we do?

Speaker 3 (01:44:39):
Okay, you keep listening and I'll find it. Yeah, and
report back. Could you ear report back? People? I think
someone said earlier that done in the air fry if
you could. I don't know the ways of the air fryer.
So if you're not, if you are ear fryer sev
let me know if you could do it in the
air fryer, because why not. Love an air fryer, but
haven't used one, So get in touch if you want

(01:45:00):
to talk about the air fryer. Use an air fryer.
Oh wait, one hundred eighty Teddy nine text are still twelve?
Anything else that's the plan, But mainly a deer friars
or something. I mean, mainly it's Yorkshire puddings or anything
Yorkshire putting adjacent, whatever Yorkshire putting adjacent means. Oh, I
felt quite sad he had tried one. I guess you know,

(01:45:22):
we're getting on in years and not everyone's up to
the ways of the Yorkshire pudding. It's probably all sorts
of food that people have never tried. I'm not saying
it's a bad thing. Our grandma from old, old Grandma
from old any of those grandparents that want to muffinton
across from Yorkshire from a hole from the earlier guy.
She probably never tried sushi woul. Does she ever a

(01:45:45):
don a ka bab or a sushi filled taco or
a barber garnouche. You know, I guess probably it wasn't
the end of the world not have tried those things.
The cuisine has changed. But he wanted a job on
the Yorkshire putting in a in a Yorkshire pudding in
a slow cook, not in an air fryer. And that's
the bread basket of what we're talking about. Quite little.

(01:46:06):
Some will have text this Marcus, I pop and dumplings
on top of the crock pot when doing a casserole
using the Edmunds cookbook. It's simple, but boy are they
filling proper dumplings. You'll love them on top of steak
and kidney pie. Marcus, I must be the exception. I'm
a grannie and I detest Yorkshire putting. Lindy, your what's
a grannie. These days, a granny can be fifty, can't they.
But you had to come from overseas. I think, yeah,

(01:46:30):
I think that's the situation. Someone said an air fryer
wouldn't last in my Yorkshire monastery kitchen. Fat chance, Oh
very good, Owen, he's got three puns in there. Of
course it's been our air frar ai r f r
i aar, which I think is very very good. Liking
that a lot ef fry r suet's Marcus good evening him.

Speaker 11 (01:46:54):
Marcus, that's so here. I I'm from Tasmania. I obviously
live in New Zealand now. And yes, so that's the
thirtieth anniversary of Port Arthur, the shooting of today, and
I can remember back to that day and I felt
a long way from home. So I had already moved

(01:47:15):
to New Zealand. We have family down there and down
in the Port Arthur settlement. I don't know whether you've
ever visited the settlement.

Speaker 3 (01:47:24):
No, I haven't, haven't.

Speaker 11 (01:47:26):
It's like a little village of it's quite quite remarkable.
So yeah, it's very historic and brutal history and all
that sort of thing. But my father, his childhood friends
were the people that were shot that owned the little seascape.

(01:47:48):
We used to call it the Doll's House. It was
the pink and white building and we used to have
our girl guide camps on the property that's next door,
and we used to it was just across the paddock,
so we used to call it the the Doll's House.
So when it happened, I knew all that area so well,
and so it's something that sort of stayed with me.

(01:48:11):
We were in Tasmania, you know, Christmas and New Year
this year, and we stayed my cousin has Land not
far from the where you go into the settlement, and
so we would walk around the every day and we're
walking down the pathway, you know, the road down in

(01:48:34):
and it's a little back road and have you seen
and there's a little memorial.

Speaker 7 (01:48:41):
You know.

Speaker 11 (01:48:41):
Yes, so it's already a brutal history, but to also
have that is is just a double whammy. So but
it's the most most interesting place and a lot of history.
But yes, so today I've been thinking a lot of
of of all those families that affected. Obviously Australians think

(01:49:06):
of the day, but I just remembered what it did
to my father and he lost his friends used to
stay there. When he would visit Port Arthur, the peninsula
it's called, he would work with the students at the
high school and things like that and do advocacy to

(01:49:27):
the people down there. So he would go down and
stay with Sally and David at the seascape and things
like that. So he was very very devastated and you know,
thirty years ago to lose you know, his Yeah, there's
just sort of a son. And I'm sort of probably
rambling on, but I'm I'm finding.

Speaker 3 (01:49:47):
It quite interesting because I'm sort of taken me back
to and as you're talking, I'm thinking about how very
lucky we were that there wasn't cell phone footage because
it was quite a lot. It was quite a long
kind of a lot. I mean, they're all brutal, but
it was sort of pecking people off with the machine gun.

Speaker 11 (01:50:06):
It it was sort of we did a while we
didn't know because everything was a blackout, and so we
had people because the property is his next door to
where I grew up. You know, they owned the land
next door as well. That's where we had a good
eye camp.

Speaker 3 (01:50:25):
One was So can I just interrupt you and just
say because a lot of information came at me quite
quickly as you talk to me. The seascape was a
bed and breakfast. Is that where that is that where
he had Oh that's where the what was that connection
to the massacre?

Speaker 11 (01:50:40):
He knew them, he he was known to them. That's
where he drove back to. Sorry, because it's just the
settlement's quite spread out. So he was in the historic area,
but he drove out and went drove to the little
seascape to back to Sally and David's place, and that

(01:51:00):
is what he set high to and and he killed
him there.

Speaker 3 (01:51:05):
So he'd killed other people at the historic site, then
went back to this.

Speaker 11 (01:51:09):
Yes, so there was he was quite. It's probably it's
several kilometers up the road and there's a road out
of the settlement area and that's where it sounds awful,
but that's where the mum and the two little children
were shot. And it's really quite you know you walk
past it. Oh my gosh, oh you know, like we

(01:51:31):
stopped in our tracks just you know, just when we're
visiting and oh, this is the you know, because it's
changed a lot. Where how you come in and and
how you visit the place is all different. So we've
been going to the to the area for years. So
he came out of the area, drove up and he
drove to Seascape. It's you know, along the road quite

(01:51:55):
a bit, so the whole area. So everything was blackout,
so there was no news. We didn't know where people were.
And in Hobart, as you can imagine, everyone knows everyone,
and you were just as news was sort of coming
out there's been a shooting and we just didn't know
who was affected. We had missing people at that stage,

(01:52:18):
and yes, so which they were safe. But then of
course David and Sally were the Martins who grew up
in Bellerive, which is where I grew up, my dad
grew up, and they were his childhood friends and he
used to stay with them when he would visit Port

(01:52:39):
Arthur or the peninsula.

Speaker 3 (01:52:43):
Well so, yeah, well I probably didn't realize that I
was speaking to you as he'd managed to shoot all
those people that they managed to get away in his
car and then shoot other and then shoot other people
I mean along the.

Speaker 12 (01:52:52):
Along the way.

Speaker 11 (01:52:53):
It was quite horrific. And I think that's why why,
that's why the gun laws were so so strong and
so sudden because they were automatic and semi automatic weapons
were banned from that day.

Speaker 16 (01:53:06):
There was a big.

Speaker 11 (01:53:08):
What do you call it, an amnesty where you had
to hand in hand over.

Speaker 3 (01:53:13):
John Howd was very quick about it, wasn't it all happened?

Speaker 11 (01:53:15):
Very very swift? Yep, Yeah, well it was thirty five people.

Speaker 3 (01:53:18):
I mean, it was unbelievable.

Speaker 11 (01:53:19):
It was horrific. It was I mean, with you know,
you experience, it was just kind of it's something that
still just sort of blows, you know, like it just
takes a bit hard to you know, to comprehend how vast.
And because there's a lady from Masterton who which is

(01:53:41):
where I am now. Her husband was killed in the cafe.
He was a wine maker from New Zealand, and she
came back to New Zealand with her little boy, and
they used to come into the store where I worked
at the time, in the bookstore, and whenever we'd have balloons,
she'd quietly ask us, could you know, could she could
we please not have balloons in the store, because she

(01:54:03):
said if it ever, Yeah, So that's how horrific small world,
isn't it. Jason Jason Winter, I think he was he
was the he was a winemaker from New Zealands about that.
So it you know, just affected. There were a lot
of people. There are a lot of tourists, people, people

(01:54:24):
just knew new people that it just had such an impact.
My cousin was at the at the service today they've
they've got land nearby. So but it is amazing. It's
such a horrific part. But it is set in amongst
such horrific history because it's where it's a convict settlement

(01:54:48):
and the penal Connelly Colony and all that harsh punishment,
and it's a it's quite a bizarre sort of place
that history is fascinating.

Speaker 3 (01:55:06):
Anyway, I mentioned it, Yeah, and I meet you that
for that, you know, for because I think it's good
for people to if they've got stories about that. But yeah,
it's and unlike i'd like a lot of the the
the there was also there's mad people, not mad people,

(01:55:27):
there's people that go on with strange manifestos, but this
guy just seemed that there seemed to be no motivation
or anything.

Speaker 11 (01:55:35):
Very clear.

Speaker 13 (01:55:36):
Cat.

Speaker 11 (01:55:36):
Yeah, it was absolutely And I hate all the kind
of test all that because I think there were real
people who were affected and when you know family, it
just broke my father and just yeah, I just really
detest all the people's People don't realize their comments and

(01:55:59):
their their wild ideas and accusations and things. Just that
people have have had to live with this impact and
this trauma in their life for thirty years and they
don't need nonsense brought up. Every time, you know, someone
comes up with wild theories it was you know, he's

(01:56:20):
still that person is still housed in Hobart Prisons.

Speaker 3 (01:56:26):
How far is Hobart away from there? Just to get
an indication, isn't.

Speaker 11 (01:56:28):
It two hour drives?

Speaker 21 (01:56:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (01:56:32):
Yeah, yeah, And it's quite windy and it's quite isolated.
You go on to a peninsula. I'm just trying to
think of what. I guess it's like going to Akaroa
from christ Church, I guess is probably the biggest, the
best way to describe it. Beautiful scenery and it's just magic.

(01:56:54):
It's if you ever get a chance to go to Tasmania.
I know I often bring up and people for them.
She's ringing from Tasmania, ringing about Tasmania again. But I
mean I've lived here in New Zealand for nearly thirty
two years, and I'm just really fortunate to call two
places home. And I love Tasmania and I love New Zealand,

(01:57:15):
and whenever something comes up like this, you know, my
thoughts are very much with Tasmania, especially on days like today.

Speaker 3 (01:57:23):
So, and just to be clear, did you say you
were there, you'd lived, you wound in Tasmania during that time.

Speaker 11 (01:57:30):
I went, I'd already moved to New Zealand by that stage. Yeah,
I was born and raised in Hobart. I was born
and raised in Hobart, and we used to have holidays
and so holidays and girl guye camps and things like
that to Port Arthur. It's a very I know the
area really really well. So and family now have land

(01:57:52):
nearby near the settlement, and so we go. We call
it the block, and we go to the block and
we camp and that's silly thing and it's it's a
fantastic area.

Speaker 7 (01:58:03):
So yeah, yeah, I.

Speaker 3 (01:58:06):
Really appreciate you coming through, Sue. Thank you for that.
That's it's important conversation. And certainly I found it very
interesting to hear about that too, So thank you for that. Yeah,
this day thirty years ago, and it just seemed to
be such an extraordinary number of people to be going
and I think there were tourists there too, visiting that
historical site. I think tomorrow we're going to find out
more about Prince Charles's meeting with Donald Trump and what

(01:58:30):
the promise is there or what the plan is there.
No doubt that will be covered extensively. I didn't really
bother reading all the articles about the shooting or the
alleged gunman at the Washington dinner. I gathered did and
get particularly close to the resident. The one bit of
the one bit of information I think was interesting was

(01:58:54):
that who was the third in line for president? Did
anyone follow that? Because both him and Vance were there.
Do you one know who's third in line for president?
But you know the line of succession? That was something
that I found extraordinary because they thought when Nick, when

(01:59:14):
Kennedy was shot, they were going to need the third
in line because they thought that the deputy, the vice
was undergoing a heart attack, and they swore in someone else.
I think so there was some discussion about who the
third in line for the presidency was. And the third

(01:59:37):
in line it's called the President pro Tempore, and it's
a guy called Chuck Grassley. And what is interesting about
him is that Chuck Grassley, who was the third in line,
is ninety two years old. Yeah, so is the old

(01:59:59):
He's the oldest sitting United States senator. I think that
needs to be in our quiz two, Dan, isn't it?

Speaker 12 (02:00:05):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:00:05):
I don't know.

Speaker 8 (02:00:06):
I know how we go?

Speaker 3 (02:00:07):
Who was? How old is the current president pro tem
because the double barrel question you want to know what
a present pro tempore is sounds like a Japanese dist
don't it. And how old he is? I don't know
what pro tempore means. I will look that up. Yeah,
he's ninety two the pro tempore, So that was the
most well I shouldn't say it's interesting, but yeah, so

(02:00:30):
the pro tempore means for the time being. So if
through some tragic circumstances and they were both in the
same building, that Vance and Trump were no longer and
able to perform as president, then the ninety two year
old would step into the role Chuck Rasley, for he
is the president pro tem PORI I hope you found

(02:00:51):
that interesting. Did you know that Dan? Dan knewitt? Of
course he did. Oh it's on the West Wing. Well,
I haven't watched the West Wings. We don't need to
know about this arkanery it is. I say, I'm still
asking for my calls for the final seven minutes people.
So it's a bit of a struggle after a long
weekend to get people back into the talk back frame
of mind. It's like pulling teeth some nights. Anyway, that's fine.

(02:01:14):
Onwards and upwards we will go. I'm just reading about
the replacement to Jeck e O and Kyle. That's a
big job to full. Don't they've actually got anyone permanent.
I think it's all temporary people at the stage. I
guess what they're doing is probably trialing new combinations. That's
only the way it goes, because I'll tell you what.
Those two aren't going back protum pore hey seven away

(02:01:35):
from twelve people if you want to be in quickly
before the end. Otherwise I'll be going and coming back
on Wednesday night, which is tomorrow. But yeah, I can't
fully explain why the price of petrol is so high
at the moment. I don't know what's happened. It must
it must just be that intractability, and it must be
everyone realized that there's probably going to be no solution.
That's my understanding. I don't know advance has gone across

(02:01:59):
there or not, so yeah, he might have to go
across there and sort it out. But yeah, good luck
with that.

Speaker 6 (02:02:06):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (02:02:08):
Six away from twelve people. If you want to talk
before the end, no one's managed to tell me if
you can actually cook you Yorkshire putting in an air
fryer as opposed to reheating them, it might be something
you might know about. Uh Deity Five from twelve Antonio,
it's Marcus.

Speaker 20 (02:02:25):
Good evening, Good evening, Marcus. I want to talk to
you about.

Speaker 3 (02:02:31):
The need in.

Speaker 20 (02:02:33):
Sports ground.

Speaker 13 (02:02:34):
Is it.

Speaker 20 (02:02:37):
They feel like they've been shelved the only because we
used to have a crib up in White Patty In
every year we used to go past the need and sometimes.

Speaker 13 (02:02:51):
Calling the need and very.

Speaker 20 (02:02:56):
Mike, you've got a lot of antiques and things like that,
very picturesque place. So what do you think about that.
I think they should just hang on because you know
over the trusted is still under under earthquake material.

Speaker 16 (02:03:19):
Marcus.

Speaker 3 (02:03:20):
I think that's I think that new stadium is very safe.
I think it's been built. I think you'd be very
very safe in an earthquake under in Takaha. I think
they've made sure about that. I don't hope so oh,
I know that that would be. But yeah, I think
they'll be first and foremost in mind. That's why it
was such an expensive build. And yeah, no I haven't.
I have no worries about that at all. I wouldn't
want to alarm anyone about that, Antonio.

Speaker 20 (02:03:42):
No, no, but I'm just saying they they they're still
on their fault line.

Speaker 3 (02:03:50):
I think Thenedan's got a lot of fault lines, hasn't it.
I think it's been big. Well you've got to look, Pa,
but I think there's been big quakes in Dunedin over
the years. But I should probably check that before I
put the fear of Yeah, I think it is prone,
but yeah.

Speaker 20 (02:04:08):
Ellen Ellen Thomas didn't talk about the photo line on
on derneed and and he was siismologist at that time.

Speaker 18 (02:04:18):
Was he?

Speaker 3 (02:04:19):
Okay? I just assumed that there were there were faults
