Episode Transcript

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

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

Speaker 3 (00:13):
I don't want to sound like a broken record, but
sometimes I do so like a broken record. The week
after Daylight Savings is the week where there are more
car accents and more heart attacks, so be aware of that.
It's just an hour, but it freaks people out. I
argue a lot of the exits that to do with
people trying to change the time on their clocks while
they drive. I didn't find that easy. Although I did it.
I realized saw it by about ten o'clock Sunday, which

(00:34):
would be a record for me. In fact, the clock
had been about two minutes fast for a long long time.
I couldn't be fair fixing it. So now it's all square,
win win, win, win win. That's good for me anyway.
That's daylight savings out of the way. It's light out there.
I don't know what it's like. Were you are an
invert cargyl oh ca see ah, Yep, it's light. It's

(01:02):
been very nice driving to walk to work today. That's
daylight savings out of the way. A peace on daylight
savings sport on the weekend. I actually ended up watching
the AFL fantastic. Did I watch the NRL yesterday so
it didn't actually end up watching the All Blacks. But
you know, we win, somebody, we lose. Some people seem

(01:22):
to be happy. Wouldn't like to be in greg Or
Paul's mind, would you?

Speaker 4 (01:26):
Boy?

Speaker 3 (01:27):
Oh boy? Is he swinging roundabout? I mean, one day
it's telling they handcout. The next day it's all okay.
I guess that's just rugby. I watched some of the
women's final. I thought that was quite good. I see
that one of the women has one of the women
players has tattooed John Mitchell's wrist. Must have been a bet.

(01:48):
They're good though, the women, the English women rugby team,
they can they can do crochet, they can do tattooing.
It's quite a good fun time with it anyway. And
for some reason all today is felt like Sunday. I
haven't managed to get the grip on what today is
it does it feels at least like a Monday day.

(02:08):
I guess that's part of the school holidays, Philly child
focus today. So that's it. That's good. A lot of
baking anyway, getting touch you want to be part of
the show. My name is Marcus Hill twelve. You might
want to cover off dlute say as you might want
to cover off. Also might want to come off. Don't
say as you might want to cover off the weekend
sport oh eight hundred and eighty. It is a bit

(02:32):
of a Monday free fraud. And I'm not quite sure
we'll end up at the end of four hours. But
you know, you pay your money and you take your chance,
and I'm here for you. Oh here's something I did.
Here's something I was quite key to talk about. Be goose,
something I feel quite strongly about. But I'm curious to know.
After you clean your gutters, people, what are you doing
with your gutters? What's your Have you got a have

(02:52):
you got a gutter routine? Because the thing if you
become a gutter watcher, I go I'm always looking at
people's guttering. Boy, oh boy, a lot of people are
grass going and a lot of people's guttering looks poorly maintained.
It's not that easy to fix either, because sometimes you
go up there with the ladder and the ladder what
you're doing with the ladder as your ladder's going on

(03:13):
to the guttering and you damage the guttering. It's not
a very straightforward thing. So yeah, I wouldn't mind knowing
your gutter rituals what you do, because particularly where I live,
which is coastal, what will happen quite often is sand
will get in your guttering, and then seeds get in
your guttering, and grass will grow in your guttering. And

(03:36):
you've got to go up there fairly regularly, i'd say annually,
and you've got to remove these things that are like
three feet long, kind of rooty things that live in
your guttering. They're quite satisfying to pull out, and then
you pull them and you drop them. Look terrible on
your paper, but that's what it is. That's what you've

(03:56):
got to do because otherwise the guttering just pulls, the
water just pulls, it goes over the edge. And I've
spoken to builders and they say what happens. The guttering
goes and the water comes down and then your foundations go. So,
if anything, and I believe strong in this as far
as guttering, the most important maintenance you can do in
your house is keeping the guttering clean because when that goes,

(04:18):
it starts eroding the piles and then you're in a
world of hurt, then your floor starts sagging these troubles,
that's probably one thing that people should do. Don't you
ever talk about guttering on this show, So I'm curious
today what you're guttering routine is. I would say for
some of you it will be whenever you see stuff
coming over the top of waters pouring out, and for

(04:39):
others that will be I don't know how often you
decided it. By the way, there was the golf on
we spend on time on Friday talk about the Ryder Cup.
A surprise it happened so quickly, but by all accounts,
the Americans behaved appallingly. Of course that stuff starts at
the top. Well ill trumpo cheating in golf. But yeah,

(05:03):
I tell you what, people went happy with that at all.
They're chanting Amanda at Rory mceroy. That was some old
reporter that there was some scuttle butt around that was
her name, throwing drinks at his wife. It's golf, not
heavy about that and the slightest anyway, guttering, guttering, guttering

(05:23):
and golf and weekend sport. That's we're on about tonight.
Looking forward to what you've got to say here Till
twelve there's other stuff that happens. In the next three
hours fifty two minutes, we'll be all across it. I
don't know what it'll be yet, but the bee stuff
you can guarantee that because the world, there's a world
out there, and the world is happening and turning. Hope
your white bait's going well eight hundred and eighty ten

(05:45):
eighty and nine two nine two to text headline on
The Guardian, Britain may already be at war with Russia
form ahead of Mi I five says he, I don't
know when the wars start. These days. It's all cyber
attacks and drones. Makes you think, doesn't it anyway? Guttering commandments,

(06:07):
what are you doing how often? And who holds the ladder?
Once upon a time on this show, we did a
show about people falling off roofs, and I've never felt confident.
I've never felt quite as confident on a room on
a roof since. Once you realize how devastating roofs are

(06:31):
and the silent killers that are roofs, you're not getting
on the roof with such alacrity as you once did.
Is that the right use of the word alecrity? I
don't know. Yes, cheerful readiness, that's exactly the right meaning
of alacrity. But yeah, roofs and ladders and quite often

(06:52):
your find you get one of those ladders that's been
around for a long time, it twists or it's not
quite long enough. You think that'll do anyway, and up
you are there on your roof for the wrong with
the wrong shoes, and it's icy. It's a disaster. Get
in touch you on start the I'll discussing time Hittle twelve.
I'm not going away. There'll be other stuff that will
be happening tonight. We're all across it, but be a

(07:14):
part of you want to have a bit of a
bang on about that. Eight hundred and eighty ten eighty
and nine nine two to text. You've got until the
eleventh of October to vote the local body elections, but
you want to have your voting by Tuesday or Wednesday
of next week because you've got to arrive you know
what you're in posts like or it might be by
dex mail. I'm confused about it anyway. So yeah, that's

(07:39):
just a community notice from me. You might want to
mention that. And there's measles in Queenstown. It's actually in
Queenstown over the Wells and Alex for the Blossom Festival.
It rained on the parade, but yeah, quite a pleasant
day there at the festival. And got stopped twice by

(08:00):
police checks on the road said count to seven. I
thought that's down from ten. I went to six. But yeah,
that was interesting. One at Roxburgh and one on the
back roads of Cromwell. There's quite a lot of the
guys of the old V eights driving around things that
I think it's a bit of an annual pilgrimage that
the car club's got to the Blossom Festival. Anyway, didn't

(08:23):
seem to be arresting anyone said, didn't arrest me, But yeah,
the old random checks don't mind when you go to
Oh yeah, just doing around. Oh ye're just doing a
random anyway. That's the way for me. Sixteen past eight
oh eight hundred eighty today. My name is Marcus. Welcome
hit Toll, twelve o'clock. If there is something else you
want to mention, make it sparkly, come on through. There's
something exciting, you've got beautiful, let's be here, let's be

(08:46):
hearing from you. And as I say, if this breaking
newser happens tonight. I will bring that to you when
it happens. If you're seeing stuff that I'm not seeing,
let me know. Text it on nine two, nine to
two or phone it through Oh eight hundred eighty ten
eighty text. A group of christ Church residents are so

(09:12):
fed up with boy races they're fundraising for speed cameras
to collect evidence against those driving dangerously and waking residents
in the dead of night. So the Littleton Harbor residents
are are raising money so they could hire a portable
speed camera. Goodness, that's taking neighborhood watch it, but far so.

(09:35):
I guess. I don't know whether it would work in court,
but that's what they're doing. Jae didn't think they'd be
boy racers in Littleton. Seems to been no corner of
this planet that's not affected now by the boy racers.
Text or call if you want to be part of it.
Money is Marcus, welcome huntil twelve deep breaths. Where the

(09:56):
stupid new text? And what do I click on? Bulletin,
messenger or something auto? I don't think I can see
it now, Yeah, Marcus. People must also make sure or
the hot water tank is not running over onto the roof.
This happened to me. I had to Well, that's cost
you a lot of money if the water spouting out
of that. Maybe your plumber could tell us about that
stock track rolled on napier tope. That's that's an old

(10:17):
story then, And I saw that old the stock track struck.
That's an old story is and a new story. I
saw something in the herod about a road crash, but
didn't click on it. You know what it's like these days,
you don't click on stories. But that might be a
new one. I saw something out there with a crash,
but yeah, I didn't think that was that one. How

(10:37):
ago that happened? People? I'll check on end TA and
let you know about that also too. There was one
earlier on. I haven't seen that yet, So what time happened?
Was ages ago?

Speaker 2 (10:47):
Was it?

Speaker 3 (10:48):
That's harpast? Is it that tape, napier tope or road?
Oh that's old news, mate, jeepers. Yeah, but it's not
had just closed as it. Best way to clean your
gun is an extendable hooked water blast is safe. No
need for letterers. Don't like that. I like to see
what's up there and always when you get on a roof,

(11:11):
you get a good look at it. You think, gee,
look out there. You always see stuff off the top
of the roof. Marcus, we could award the europe Ride
a Cup team and Honorary Halberg for international field goods
through the year where they win over those obnoxious Yanks. Yeah, boy,
they were ghastly. How much does the new text cost?

Speaker 4 (11:27):
Down?

Speaker 3 (11:27):
Twenty cents? Still is it? We've got a new text provider. Yep,
that's right, all data promo whatever that means. And all
the old texts have disappeared, well the old one. Yeah, anyway,
comes if you want to start the whole wall rolling,
so otherwise I just talk out the hour. I don't mind.

(11:49):
Why am I saying that like that? Because I want
to hear about your guttering actually and ride a cup
If you watched anyway? Interest in that golf course that
was at there's five golf courses in the one spot. Well,
that was pretty interesting. Email me if you can to
Oh wait, Marcus at new Talks. He'd be dot co
dot instead. Hi, Marcus Auckland to Wellington during the school

(12:11):
holidays in his in flights two thousand dollars. It wouldn't
be that much normal four twenty would it be seems
excessive to me? That rubbish airline we've got though, jeepest
creepers should be much cheaper. Twenty past eight, looking forward
to you calls? Who wants to start the whole ball rolling? Oh,
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty and nine nine two

(12:33):
to text. Someone's asked me why buy text wide and
what's the all blecks? Well, I think the the the
Ossie rule started at four thirty and it was compelling.
It was even at halftime, so yeah, I just got
stuck on it. I switched back and forward to the
rugby a little bit, but once I started watching the AFL,
it really was quite a compelling match. Don't understand all

(12:53):
the subtleties of it, but one hundred and two thousand
people are coach that's sixty five years old. It's a
pretty interesting thing. And Brisbane going down there and bidding
julyng I mean, it's pretty unbelievable. In fact, it was
a pretty amazing weekend for Brisbane for sport with the
qualifying for the final of the NRL as well. It
was an amazing comeback, So yeah, I thought both and

(13:15):
then by the way, with the AFL the second half
the Brisbane team ran away with it. But yeah, it
was it was, it was compelling. So yeah, anyway, welcome
people that we are talking about guttering and roof cleaning.
Are quite happy talking about roofing and also anything else
you do want to talk about tonight, Marcus. When it

(13:38):
comes to gutters, the worst thing is to have an
interurtle type gutness. A regular cleaning is even more important.
If there is a blockage, the water can leak inside
the walls, calling significant damage that I've had to experience, Marcus,
can you mask the audience what Jetstar International flights are
Asia are like much appreciated, Glenn. I've been spraying wet
and forget wrap it on the roof for a year

(13:59):
and the liking just won't come off. What's the deal?
I've got some like and my like and I want
to address. I'm hoping to do it this summer. And
they always say this is what they do say. They
say that after ten years you're supposed to paint the roof.
Is that right? That it kind of skits season and
then you're painted. So I'm keen to talk about that

(14:20):
as well as well. And this is actually, although there's
been a zero response, this is quite a good topic
getting into summer because I feel these longer weekends you
get into house roof maintenance, particularly gutering and roofs. That's
something is of interest to me, so jumping into want
to talk about it or anything else. As I've said,
there's something different you want to mention. I'm not fast people.

(14:41):
It's been a good weekend and I'm happy with whatever's
going on. But by the way, there's measles. There's measles
in the Bay of Islands now, and there's measles in Queenstown,
all linked to overseas travel. But they say before too
long the rates of vaccination are low enough for it
to take a hold in this country, so that's a concern.

(15:05):
So yeah, I don't know. If I presume they're probably
chasing people down and tracing them, that would be to
what I'd be imagining. So that's tepning. Also tonight on
the other thing too, is that cheese company closed, Kervella Cheese,
East Tarctica. It's been around for twenty years, so that's
suggest another of those kind of redundancies and things going

(15:28):
bad in that Nelson area. No longer sustainable to continue
one of three accredited raw milk cheese producers in New Zealand. Yep,
So I don't know what's going on there. They came
from Western Australia. They moved to New Zealand. Cochman was

(15:48):
a raw milk cheese consultant for twenty years in South Africa.
Would be a good thing to be obsessed about cheese,
wouldn't it. I've seen those YouTube videos. Does Scott based
do daylight savings? Yes they do, I'm pretty sure they do.

(16:09):
Could we confirm that would Scott based do daylight savings?
I would imagine they did, yes, because it's part of
New Zealand. I'm almost sure they do. I think they would. Murriyo,
it's Marcus welcome, good evening.

Speaker 5 (16:30):
Yeah, I'm Marcus. Won't help match at Scott Base. It's
twenty four hour light.

Speaker 3 (16:34):
Yes exactly, but yes, come on, but would they do
it because they're part of New Zealand for comms and
stuff probably for year?

Speaker 5 (16:44):
How to say, They've got to deal with so you've
got to deal with everyone else as well. At the
Americans think.

Speaker 3 (16:48):
Story I want to tell the Americans are.

Speaker 6 (16:51):
On don't know?

Speaker 5 (16:52):
It sounds like a scetious question though, yeah, not what
called though, I've only got twelve cent battery, so I
got a hurry. I was up on the roof yesterday
because what shoes? What shoes? Well, hang on, let me
give you the intro. It's been pumping down weekly here

(17:16):
for weeks, probably the coldest Attember or at least in
the last twenty years. I think we'll get those numbers
pretty shortly this week. Pretty cold, lots of snow around.
So finally the roof starts flapping.

Speaker 2 (17:31):
Right.

Speaker 5 (17:32):
It's sort of not a few loose nails because they've
got a hundred year old roof. I had to get
up your stand, put some tech screws in the in
the in the ridgeline, yeah, and a few other things.
So I used I got up on the five minute lad.
I know the ones you've been the aluminium ladders. They
start getting weak, and it's because there's electeralytic corrosion between
the between the steel rivets and the aluminium. Ye, right,

(17:56):
so you get those cracks happening. So you've got to
watch that. So I put it up on the side
end of the lean to part of the house, which
is only three three minutes high. So I'm up there,
and then I haul up the wooden plank which has
got foam on one side, which I've made up, and
then wooden rungs with the with the with the top
rung reverse, so hooked over the ridge kit.

Speaker 3 (18:19):
Yeah, just thing on the I want before details there, Mars.
I'm into the story. You've paint a good picture with
the scenario of the see hour westers and the stuff.
So I just told they all come back to you.
Keep your calls coming through it about roofs and guttering
thanks to twenty nine away from Night Murray. So you're
up on the roof. You've got a bit of wood
with foam on one side.

Speaker 5 (18:39):
So imagine me up on the lean to part of
the roof which is flat up right with your sit
back of the house. You type, and then I've got
about a forty degree pitch to the roof. So then
I hought I'm standing in the in I haul up the.

Speaker 7 (18:54):
Yes, wendy, Okay, So haul up.

Speaker 5 (18:56):
A three meter plank. Somagine one plank and it's got
like carry met close cell foam glued to one side,
and then one end's got a Twober two nail to it.
And there's two the two rungs nail to the plank
on the top side, so I just keep myself safe
like that. And then you just come down to the

(19:18):
lean to part of the roof and move it along
wherever you want.

Speaker 3 (19:21):
You might have.

Speaker 5 (19:24):
No I picked it up from a build a friend
of mine who was doing some work here with me,
and you just say, oh, you can have it, and.

Speaker 3 (19:29):
I give you a solid base.

Speaker 8 (19:30):
Does it totally?

Speaker 5 (19:33):
Fuel feels really good.

Speaker 3 (19:35):
I think a lot of people. I think a lot
of people get up on the roof without ford planning.
I think I'll let to get up there or do
something because it's just Steve. Actually it requires the right
strees and planning. You don't want to do it in
a hurry.

Speaker 5 (19:45):
Also, they get scared, so I'll tell you what. So
magine you're up on you're three ments up off the deck, right,
so you're on the ground and you let's say you're
one meter eighty tae and you're looking at something at
your roof that you're gathering, which is like three minutes
off the dep okay, so it doesn't actually seem that
far away from you. But when you're up on the
roof on into your roof, tweet to three meters up

(20:07):
and then your eyes are another one meter eighty up.

Speaker 3 (20:10):
So what so what was at one point two meters
is now five meters that's right.

Speaker 5 (20:14):
So you're looking at the ground and go Jesus, this
is high. Yeah and it is and so it's all
the heads.

Speaker 3 (20:19):
So what shoes did you wear on.

Speaker 5 (20:23):
The safety jandles?

Speaker 9 (20:24):
Of course.

Speaker 3 (20:27):
There might be CROs twenty away from nine welcome. My
name is Marcus Hddle twelve. A bad roofing experience and
mainly about clear and guttering. How often you do it?
That's a topic. So far do they have daylight savings
in scott Base? Any daylight saving stories? I'm all in on.
But anything else you've got tonight, would love to hear
from you and the weekend sport and someone know about
Jetstar Marcus reset to go to the roof to pull

(20:48):
some weeds out of the gathering, had to climb on
top of the house and go right to the opposite corner.
Pretty good view, quite windy side. Topic discipline result for
spours against Wolves, drew against last place and taking your
shoes off of the equalizer an injury time is pretty sad.
Go and get the ball, Marcus. With the you earthquake
building rules announced today by the government. This means the

(21:10):
end of Cargo h and Jaysmith Building no longer needs
upgrading and could be used as is. This is great news.
Probably also means they demolish the pyramid with no reason.
Will that be right fluff? Jetstar International flights are great service,
second to none, not like the domestic Jetstar flights can't
beat us in however, only on price. That's from Katie.

(21:32):
Someone asked about what jet Stars like internationally. If you've
got something to say about that, that would be good to
hear from you too. And guttering cleaning, guttering cleaning, Get
in touch, Marcus till twelve anything else you want to
bang on about tonight. I'm in the mood for it all.
Feel free to come through. Yeah, Jetstar, I have been
Jetstar International to Hamilton, Ireland. Would it be Jetstar? I

(21:57):
think it was seem pretty good to me. I don't
want to bore you with dreams, because there's nothing quite
as boring as dreams, But last night I realized I
quite often dream about international flights. Yeah, and kind of

(22:18):
the intricacy is the air off that sounds like a
strange thing to dream about, don't. But it always seems
quite complicated when I'm on them. So yeah, I never
thought if you were never it was just how happy
to sort of get out of in the dreams. Well,
that's a familiar dream, that's a recurring dream. How flip
sounds pretty middle class. I wasn't dreaming about international flights,
not in a bad way, not in a scary action,

(22:39):
quite an enjoyable way. It's not like a reoccurring It's
not a nightmare. It's just a weird thing to be
dreaming about. Yeah, I feel kind of surprising sharing that
with the group, But do come through if there is anything.
I just want to mention Tonight Daylight Savings a bloody
embarrassment needs to be in late October, Jeff, what's happened? Jeff?
Too late for you? By the way, on the radio,

(23:00):
some god forsaken stations, they're interviewing dairy farmers who cares
if they're going to milk the cow when it's dark.
It's like, whatever, I can't believe how long we've gone
on to I mean, for forty years. Every time there
Daylight Savings they talk to farmers I'll be surprised if
a dairy farmer was alive that still remembers the way
it was before daylight saving. Marcus, your descriptions of the

(23:26):
gutter issues and deguttering process fall off letters hilarious and relatable.
I put a cover of the deck two years ago,
which makes the process so much more difficult. Having to
crawl across the deck roof to clean them out. Balance
issues from Parkinson's and being scared of heart's heights makes
it harder. Haha. Yeah, we're your by helmet. I'd be

(23:46):
doing that twenty four away from nine. Nothing funny about falling.
I think a terrifying thing about falling would be when
that sensation when you start, I think this is going
to go bad, and you know it's your fault, so
you kind of hit the ground with a sense of
embarrassment and shame and regret. So it's kind of embarrassment,

(24:10):
shame and regret, and then you hit the ground. So
those two seconds beforehand that you know your life's never
going to be the same. You might be the spiral unit.
It's all your own fault. Think about that if you
want to, and if you want to talk, that's even better.
Eight hundred and eighty ten eighty. I'll try and be

(24:30):
relatable to encourage you through if you do want to talk,
as I've said, and this is something else you want
to talk about. God. I. By the way, Oasis have
done their final concert at Wembley and they said they
will be touring next year. See you next year, he said,
I want to keep you lot. I think thank you

(24:52):
a lot for keeping the faith and putting this band
back on the map. Champagne, super and Ova. See you
next year. It's exciting hope that they'll come to New
Zealand to Eden Park Governor to probably pay them to
come with the greaterconomic miracle. But let's be hearing from him.
It's twenty three away from nine back soon. Sure about

(25:13):
gathering might have been ambitious, I persevered. John AT's Marcus welcome,
good evening.

Speaker 10 (25:18):
Yeah, Hi, I'm just bringing up my neighbor is one
of those letters off the TV. They used to sell
him on the commercial.

Speaker 3 (25:28):
Yeah, with a guy with the funny jeans. Yeah, I've seen.

Speaker 9 (25:30):
Him in the funny funny boots.

Speaker 3 (25:34):
Yeah he's got with he's got weird jeans with those
funny pockets those Yeah.

Speaker 10 (25:39):
Anyway, yeah, yeah, I know exactly what your meaning holds
a wall, but I borrowed off him. And right at
the top of the letter, you can put these extendable
arms here that touched your house or they touched the
board just under the gatherering. Yeah, and instead of putting

(26:00):
your letter just on the gathering. So just you know,
if your gallery has been up there for so many year,
it's so bruttle the plastic that says, you know. And
I buried that letter and Gary in my whole place,
and and and do it.

Speaker 3 (26:18):
Hang on, hang on, hang on, John, because I got
I got phased out when you're talk Is he your neighbor?

Speaker 10 (26:26):
Yeah, on my neighbor he bought.

Speaker 3 (26:27):
See the guy from the head, not the guy.

Speaker 11 (26:33):
From the edgesus he was.

Speaker 10 (26:34):
I'd been looking over him.

Speaker 3 (26:35):
But okay, yeah.

Speaker 10 (26:39):
But I also they tried to sell me one time
when I'll ring up to buy those do it all
drill but one time and they said, oh, would.

Speaker 9 (26:48):
Would you like this?

Speaker 10 (26:49):
I said, name my neighbor's got one. Oh my god,
I couldn't get off the bloody line. They just they
just kept on hammering me. Would you want to buy
this letter? I said, name my neighbor's got one, or
just use Who's you know. I've got the exact same letter,
but I use who you know?

Speaker 12 (27:03):
Just you know.

Speaker 3 (27:04):
Oh, that's quite. That's good. If it slides and goes
against the barge, I'd like the sound to that.

Speaker 10 (27:10):
Yeah, and they've got I've got that like little slide
thing that you can walk up the letter and you
pull out the slide and you can stand there.

Speaker 3 (27:18):
You put a paint on that too, can't you.

Speaker 10 (27:20):
Yeah you saw the d Yeah, I know, And I'll
tell you what. It just makes the world of difference.
You don't have to get on the roof. You just
go up there, come there, mobody along and dumb and
you're you're like me, I like to see what's in me.
I don't like doing.

Speaker 3 (27:40):
I would like to get up there, but my partner,
she's developed. She's fond of painting houses. So I might
get there the ladder with the it might be a
good thing to get. But I'm sure they're much cheaper now.
I'm sure the guys intellectual properties. Probably everyone's making them
on TIMO now, aren't they.

Speaker 10 (27:58):
Yeah, well, I see to them. I said, well, if
you give me one for free, I might buy one
and they sort of sort of entertain the rest of it.

Speaker 3 (28:06):
Okay, we'll talk more about those letters. Yeah, I forgot
they are Elinda Marcus.

Speaker 11 (28:11):
Welcome him, Marcus. I've got a bit of an argument
going here. I'm here with my sister, my daughter in law,
and my daughter and we're having an argument. Is it
yogurt or yogurt?

Speaker 3 (28:27):
Good question?

Speaker 11 (28:28):
Ay, what do you think? What do you say?

Speaker 3 (28:35):
Who's winning in your argument?

Speaker 12 (28:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (28:38):
Well I'm the only one saying it's yogurt. I was
saying it's yoga.

Speaker 6 (28:42):
I only had a yogurt for lunch.

Speaker 3 (28:44):
That's British. Yeah, American yogurt. Yeah, I don't know. Always
say always say yogat the britis. I don't think it's
a British word. That's the trouble with it.

Speaker 11 (28:57):
Yeah, that's what I said.

Speaker 3 (28:58):
That's a Turkish I was watching I was watching Taskmaster
before I came to work, and they were pronouncing it wrongly.

Speaker 11 (29:04):
Also okay, and I also want to make I absolutely
loved the Power of Love.

Speaker 3 (29:11):
Yeah, well that's good.

Speaker 11 (29:12):
I really love it. The first time I either heard that,
I was on holiday in Australia and there was a
woman seen singing it. In a restaurant and I just
love it. Wow, it was just a note one, you know.

Speaker 3 (29:29):
Got in and open therest. That sounds like paradise. Yeah,
I'd go with yoga, but I'll take other people's advice
about that. It is a Turkish word. I think the
Bret's go. I don't know something anyway, but it's weird
that people kind of double down on it. Anyway, keep

(29:50):
your text going to Marcus was upgraded to Premium Economy
on flight to do. But ever since I dream that
I can't find the meal table. I'm such a plub.
Marcus re date remilk in the dark in the morning.
A few years back, Daylight Savings was extended at both
ends of the season, many more dark early mornings. John,

(30:14):
We'll just milk them later. Marcus just to the guy
saying daylight Savings as a joke. God, this country moment
about anything, that's what's the joke. Yeah, it is embarrassing
that people are embarrassed by daylight Savings. Anyway, do come
through headle twelve fifteen away from nine. It's mainly guttering

(30:36):
and those weird letters and and and anything else you
want to talk about on this fine Monday it's later
than you think. Wake up, Oh so into tears of
just a waka kotahi. Have just gotten toucht stretch of
State Hiway five Napier top wore that remains closed. Toe

(30:58):
truck's an outside of the truck crash near tair poor Huey.
There is no viable detour, so I'll let you know
when the road reopens. I'm not quite sure when that'll be.
Fourteen to nine from nine again Touch you want to
be a part of the number is eight hundred and

(31:20):
eighty nine. Text looking forward to what you've got to say.
I keep those texts coming through too. The letter was
called the transformer leadder cheers John, Thank you for that.

Speaker 13 (31:32):
John.

Speaker 3 (31:33):
Let's bring some other texts. Bring them up people, Marcus,
there is no s in daylight savings. It's savings, not saving. Yeah,
well that's the batable. I think it's if you do
a Google search for daylight savings, there's more responses for
daylight savings than daylight saving. It used to be daylight

(31:55):
saving and now it's become daylight If I go daylight
saving and Google.

Speaker 2 (32:00):
It right.

Speaker 3 (32:02):
Daylight saving and I push Google doesn't tell me how
to have a response. That doesn't tell me anymore. But yeah,
I think it's evolved. I think people find it easy
to say daylight savings because you're saving more than once.
You're saving daylight every day because every day you've got
more daylight in the evening. But I'm accepting both ways.

(32:23):
I'm not going to not the cross. I'm going to
die on its about daylight savings or daylight saving. But
I preferred on the show it's daylight savings. Other shows
they might say daylight saving, but it sounds like you're
waiting for the s at the end of it. Yeah,
freaks me out. Ten away from nine seven from nine Andrew,

(32:44):
this is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 14 (32:46):
Hi, Hell are you good?

Speaker 3 (32:47):
Andrew? Real good? Thank you.

Speaker 14 (32:48):
Yes, there's a story.

Speaker 15 (32:51):
I think it should be called daylight shift because that's
actually what you know, the daylight he.

Speaker 3 (32:58):
Andrew. Yep, when does daylight shift start this year?

Speaker 11 (33:04):
That's starts last just last weekday morning morning.

Speaker 3 (33:09):
That sounds that's a good way to say it, a
daylight shift, daylight shift.

Speaker 16 (33:13):
Yep, there we got.

Speaker 13 (33:16):
Anyone's going to be calling it daylight shift?

Speaker 3 (33:17):
Well, d Yes, I like daylight shift because you've shifted
the day. Yep much better daylight shift? Does that what
we want to go with? Since people get all upset
about daylight savings, but less people get upset about it.
I budgeted them on it over the years. The ladder
was a transformer ladder. Not many texts is it? Start

(33:41):
havingy texts the last seven minutes DAN but coming through
every minute there for a while. Now they've stopped. I
don't like it, don't like the new system. Shouldn't go
on about it. Get in touch. You want to talk
Marcus till the end, but only talk about clearing the
gathering and those sort of leaders you would use, and
your technic and how often you should do it. They're

(34:01):
saying twice yearly. But yeah, there's nothing worse than the houses.
You notice it with this grascrowing out. It looks terrible,
doesn't it? The first thing I noticed? And I judge
people with grass coming out of their guttering. I think
that's not good. So I talk about that in Daylight
Savings versus Daylight Savings where they have daylight savings and
Antarctica at Scott Base. I don't know the answer for that,

(34:22):
but i'd like to. I'd like to know, and I've
been there and I thought they probably did have it,
and I think so. We had to go to an
event at the American Base. I won't say what the
event was. And they were on the same time, Laurel. No,
but yeah, I think they do have who knows, but

(34:43):
get in touch. If you're on talk Marcus till every end,
oh eight hundred and eighty, ten eighty, what else you got,
feel free to come through. There's other topics. Oh yeah,
And apparently they were appallingly behaved the spectators at the
Ryder Cup. Ruy McRoy slammed the behavior because golf's supposed

(35:04):
to be a gentlemanly sport, is it? His wife was
it by a can of beer, and his teammates said
the amount of abuse they received was astonishing. Continual taunts
to disrupt his game. If you're Rory, they chanted, Yeah, wow,

(35:24):
a message for you US fancies. I think if I
was an American, i'd be annoyed. I didn't hear a
lot of shouts for Scottie today, but I had a
lot of shouts against me. Support your players, that's the thing.
So there we go. I don't know if Trump was there,
but CERI he seems to be taking the blame for
some of the behavior. Make of that what you will.

(35:47):
I think he was watching and then doing things on
truth social about it. Jesus is wont get in touch,
hetell twelve If you want to monaims Marcus good evening
the old transformer ladder. Well, I can texas to new machine,
cause I'm not, but I banned myself on the old
machine to see how the banning worked. I don't know

(36:07):
Sophie Monk did the anthem? Oh I missed that. Oh well, anyway,
if you want to be attached to my name is
Marcus Hadle twelve oh, eight hundred and eighty eighteen eighty.
Let's be hearing from you. If you don't want to
come through, there's something else you want to talk about.
You are more than welcome. Greetings people. Feels like seven

(36:28):
past It should feel like seven past eight, seven past
I think for a while there, Yes, anyway, seven past nine,
So it's probably later than you think, just in case
you're trying to put the kids to be in or something.
Kids go crazy down well, the young kids go crazy
with dart. Its having the next some weeks to adjust. Anyway,

(36:50):
I hope it's good we're talking about guttering and your
maintenance of your gut. How you run at your guttering.
It's quite complicate, particular you get elderly. I'm sure getting
up in down that letter is quite an ordeal for people.
But I think it's probably one of the one things
you do to your house that is really recommended because
if you don't do it at ricksha piles, I think
because the water drips down undermines them. So we are

(37:11):
talking about that tonight. Also running o about the princess
if yogurt. Someone also wanted to know about whether they
have daylight savings and Antarctica when there's twenty four hour daylight.
I don't know any answers to these questions, but I'm
happy to talk to you about anything tonight, and do
get in touch. Oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty
and nine two nine two to text, So jumping if

(37:34):
you want to be a part of the show, anything
goes here Tel twelve. Keep those texts coming through. Two
love to hear from you. Hear the very end tonight,
the bitter end. As I say, yes, that's it goes
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty nine two nine two
to text. I'll read the texts should be called daylight robbery,

(37:57):
invented by the government. Grandkids are handy for cleaning gutters.
My text did come through, Dan, I thought I was banned, Marcus.
The correct term is daylight savings, but savings is acceptable
yoga yoga either way, Who cares? Will you care about
daylight saving? He's got to care about yogurt as well.

(38:19):
Of course it should be daylight shift, Marcus. Let's imply
could borrow a hundred billion New Zealand dollars? Would you
invest into a Producticellers nationally? Or bail out the government?
You tell me what you think, Jeff Marcus. The Rider
Cup was the most riveting show I've seen on the
TV for years. The US stage and unbelievable coming of

(38:42):
reemotional with their heartfelt patriotism. I almost got jealous of
how much they loved their country. And the American player
shouldn't be playing for the crowd. US player Justin Thomas,
playing with mclroy, repeatedly appealed to the crowd to hush
up during his opponent's puts. In any case, the crowds

(39:04):
are just as obnoxious when the Cup has played in Europe.
Lindsay I don't think most people would agree with that, Lindsay.
I think most of the commentary I saw was this
was an extraordinary show of bad sportsmanship. Yeah, it's golf.

(39:24):
It's probably weird because in most American sports they probably
really play against the rest of the world. Basketball, baseball,
ice hockey a better stuff. With Canada, they don't really
get on the innational stage much. So maybe it's not yet.
I don't know. They couldn't handle the gendle. I guess
Long Island attracts a bit of a redneck crowd there

(39:45):
at the Gulf. That might be what it's about. But
all the lines are free if you want to come
through it to eleven past nine. There's something else you
want to mention that's good. We can hear from you,
so yes, get in touch. By the way, there has
been a house far with a fatality in Hastings that's
just been reported through So that's also happening tonight. But

(40:05):
eight hundred and eighty if you want to be a
part of it. Donald Trump has responded to the European
golf team. They have said, are you watching us? And
he was, and he's responded, that's Donald Trump. The team
was taunting him and he said congratulations Goodwin. So that's
happened as well. Anyway, do talk if you want to.
My name is Marcus. Welcome. Oh, eight hundred and eighty ten.

(40:26):
There's something else you want to mention from the weekend
or anything else, I'm here for you. I would like
to hear from you and be keen to know what
you do want to talk about tonight. I say, oh,
eight hundred oh, eight hundred eighty to eighty and nine
to nine two text. Someone else was really keen to
know what they think of Jetstar internationally, so you might
have a review. Someone's obviously looking to book that. I

(40:48):
always thought they're pretty good, So I don't know if
anyone wants to say anything about that. Oh, the world's
highest bridge has opened for business and China, Gua Jo.

(41:11):
It's two point nine k's long and six hundred and
twenty five meters above the river canyon. There was that
one in France. This one's almost twice as high. There's
videos of it. It's pretty extraordinary. It's also tourist attraction
with a glass walkway, bungee jumping and ripe. They seem

(41:33):
to love bridges with a glass bottom. Don't they. It's
pretty amazing looking. Wow, it's staggering. Actually suspension bridge, but
almost three k's long every nar it's only two lanes

(41:54):
each way. It's unbelievable. Go look at that. I think
cost four eighty million to build. Looks like it would
be in the billions.

Speaker 17 (42:04):
Anyway.

Speaker 3 (42:06):
Thirteen past nine. If you want to be a part
of the show, I'm looking forward to what you've got.
Your input is tonight guthering. We're on about tonight and
successful ways to get on roofs and successful ladders. But yeah,
it's hard. Gathering is hard because you don't have the
right ladder going to dent the guttering, particularly that plastic
stuff which most of it is now, won't support that weight.

(42:28):
Then you end up damaging them, so the job becomes
self defeating. You en up damaging the gathering that you're
trying to fix. Mm hmmmm. But as I have there's
something different you want to mention you're okay more than welcome.
Thirteen past nine, Dave, this is Marcus.

Speaker 8 (42:50):
Welcome here you good, Marcus, there you going good?

Speaker 3 (42:53):
Thanks Dave.

Speaker 8 (42:55):
Hey, I had my spell roof stung, paint, water blasted,
painted and and pointing done on the tiles. Oh yeah,
and that that was done by a professional company. They

(43:18):
put scaffolding all around the house. Yes, and that's for
the safety of the workers.

Speaker 3 (43:24):
Yeah, and.

Speaker 8 (43:28):
Yeah that was that.

Speaker 3 (43:29):
How long how long the job take Dave? What sort
of cost was it?

Speaker 8 (43:33):
It was about two or three days and it was
three seven fifty okay.

Speaker 3 (43:43):
And is there is there a correct time to paint
the roof?

Speaker 8 (43:47):
Yeah, probably in the summer, but you let.

Speaker 3 (43:51):
The iron for a couple of years to to get seasoned,
don't you before you painted?

Speaker 2 (43:57):
Is that right?

Speaker 8 (43:59):
No, they just came and did the whole thing a blast,
water blast and replacing tolls as needed.

Speaker 3 (44:11):
Okay, And yeah, that was probably a smart thing to do, Dave,
Thanks for that. Fifteen past nine. Yeah, Bob Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 17 (44:19):
I am as you know, I live in the pension
of flats now. And they, funny enough, they came around
the whole last week and did the whole lot of
the gatherings and there wasn't a bit of scaffolding in sight.

Speaker 15 (44:29):
Really what they do, Yeah, they just had They just
had a little.

Speaker 17 (44:34):
Hand howld thing that they put along the gut ing
and like it was a hose with a hook on
it more than anything.

Speaker 9 (44:39):
From what I could see, were.

Speaker 3 (44:42):
The were the water blasters that you plug in.

Speaker 9 (44:46):
Yeah, they put it.

Speaker 17 (44:46):
They had it on their truck. They would have run
it off the you know, off the what do you
call them where you're pluging to get the power from. Yeah, okay, Marcus,
you carry I'm sorry.

Speaker 3 (45:00):
I wouldn't think that most people would get their places,
would water blast the gathering, would they? I think most
people just ignore it.

Speaker 17 (45:06):
For you, Yeah, well, these ones say it started. They
do to maybe company years apparently, because some of them
made grass growing and the man, as you said, to
look very good from the road.

Speaker 3 (45:14):
And I always think of grass is growing and gathering.
It's often the case they haven't got the old angle
of it. I mean, it should be fast flowing enough
to self cleaning. You'd think.

Speaker 17 (45:25):
I like to think so, wouldn't you. And also another
quick subject. Last week you talked about that car D
that was on with the cas split in two and
did its own thing. Well, I'm wondering why we haven't
had one hell of a lot of complaints about that
ad for a lot of.

Speaker 3 (45:44):
With the naked person.

Speaker 17 (45:45):
Yes, disgusting. It comes on at all hours of the
day and night, in front of the children, in front
of everybody else.

Speaker 3 (45:51):
I think there have been complaints, but I think probably
Loto wanted complaints because it makes them semi bitichy.

Speaker 17 (45:58):
I just thought to myself, you know the mad you
said was quite good. I went and went back and
watched it up and you said that. I thought, that's
okay for about the father jolly add that's on.

Speaker 3 (46:08):
There was something that there were complaints, but they decided
that what wasn't worth upholding them.

Speaker 10 (46:17):
All Right, Well I'm not a prune, but I wouldn't
want to, I.

Speaker 3 (46:21):
Think, Bob, Yeah, I think you don't say I'm not
a prune. You say I'm not a prude or.

Speaker 9 (46:27):
Whatever it is.

Speaker 17 (46:29):
Yeah, well I wouldn't want my head my six and
seven year old watch him telling you.

Speaker 9 (46:33):
I wouldn't watching that.

Speaker 3 (46:35):
Okay, Well, probably probably six or seven year olds don't
watch TV. There's watch YouTube. Probably do there be a
lot worse things on YouTube. On the internet. I think
probably a naked person skiing down the mountain is probably
quite quite safe comped to what's on the internet. I
still that daft Dad comes up for that stupid telephone

(46:56):
company all the time that people in the spar Pa.
I've got no idea what that's about. I'm getting quite
frustrated with it these days. Anyway, Oh that's what I
want jumping. My name is Marcus welcome. Oh wait, undred
and eighty Eenadian nine nine to text, hit'll twelve eighteen
past nine. Anything goes but money, it's guttering. Anything goes.

(47:21):
I wonder if he really means that anything goes blah
blah blah blah blah. I'm just trying to get it now.
The text machine's coming up with It's got an entry
portal for me, Dan last tell me the weather and

(47:43):
Lara Victoria Oh yeah, oh yeah, I don't want the
dash mark is a trick with a ladder against the gutter.
As you put a four x two in the gutter
with a ladder lands up against it, and it makes
the gutter rigid and somewhere to lean the gutter against. Idea,
it's good to tie the top of that or something. Also,
if it's too high and too steep to walk on,

(48:05):
you really need to erect each protection For Scaffold company,
I used Jetstar Awkard the Sunshine Coast. Awesome. They haven't
marked me around going to Sydney next week the sunny
Gold Coast of December, Marcus, empty my leaves and crep
for my spouting and throw it over to my neighbors.
Who grows a forest fifty feet high, tight against our

(48:26):
fence and over our roof. Marcus, nicky here Jetstar internationalist
crap service spaed Gem and like sardines, would never go
with them again. Quantus next Indian fantastic, Marcus. The most
amazing thing about that bridge in China as the time
it took it to build. It was only two years
from imagination to building. Yep, Marcus, what do the following

(48:54):
words have in common?

Speaker 4 (48:55):
Might?

Speaker 3 (48:55):
May possibly could be? Maybe I'll text you the answer
later on. I find the ants a quite annoying keV,
hold your horses with you soon middle twelve. By the way,
it looks like the Spice Girls are about to reunite,
which I did have predictions for twenty twenty five. Well,
what's happened to Victoria's gone to the Oasis reunion show

(49:17):
and she's been so blown away. She's put an Instagram
and seen what I reckon girls, and I reckon it
might happen, So that would be exciting, Tim, what you want, Tim,
what you really really want, Tim, it's Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 4 (49:30):
Good evening, Yeah, good evening, Marcus.

Speaker 3 (49:33):
You will yes, good, Thank you, Tim, yourself fantastic. Oh
I am very well inflick dangerous.

Speaker 4 (49:39):
Okay, yeah. Gathering So I mean probably getting not ten
years ago now. The doctor's surgery that I go to
where I live, they had oneful old copper guvering and
then they came in to work on Monday and all
the guvering and down pipes were gone stolen. I'm gonna yeah,

(50:03):
that nicked over the weekend, which was you know, I
don't know if it was more stinct because it was
on a doctor's seragery, but anyway, they had to replace
obviously with plastic guttering. But I thought there was pretty
low how much.

Speaker 3 (50:21):
Copper gatherings were. It must be worth a fortune now,
is it.

Speaker 4 (50:25):
Well, And it was, you know, like I said, getting
on for a decade. Maybe not quite a decade, but
I guess so, you know, i'd have to actually look
online see what copy goes for.

Speaker 3 (50:37):
I wonder how they need to make copper copper gathering
so cheap in the day that they could do it,
and now we can't because people would steal it.

Speaker 4 (50:46):
Yeah, it'd be interesting to what might be interesting to.

Speaker 3 (50:52):
How much? How much would copper gathering way?

Speaker 4 (50:59):
Yeah, I think it'd be a bit of weight to it.
I don't know. I guess if you had a let's
say it's a three meter down pipe. Uh, I'm trying
to think we've ever handled copper. It's hard to say. Really,
it's got to be a better way than that, you
know what. I don't know, so I better speculate. But

(51:22):
I don't know the answer to that.

Speaker 3 (51:23):
They reckon A basic house would contain forty kilograms of copper,
and copper's ten bucks of kilograms, so it's only about
four hundred bucks worth of copper that I can see.

Speaker 4 (51:34):
Yeah, it wouldn't be with.

Speaker 6 (51:38):
You know that.

Speaker 4 (51:39):
Some people don't care.

Speaker 3 (51:40):
I guess if they get that it depends too much
you need that hat.

Speaker 4 (51:43):
I suppose, well, that's that's what you conveyed that into. Hey,
I guess, so you know, unless you're going to put
it on, if you're doing a wristo on a villa
or something, which is you know, building was it was
an old home, So I guess in that sense, if
you got a laugh and gave it a shine or

(52:05):
whatever they do with it. You know, it's probably a
valuable addition.

Speaker 3 (52:09):
Can you still get, Jim, Can you still get copper guttering?
And you still can your people? They make it on site,
do they?

Speaker 9 (52:17):
I don't like.

Speaker 4 (52:18):
Mostly I just don't know, but I would guess if
you prepare to pay for it, they'll, you know, use
those extremes and machines, and I would do it.

Speaker 3 (52:28):
I wouldn't mind copper guttering. I know that sounds like
a pretty showy thing to say, but yeah, I've always
liked copper. I hate that plastic stuff. I hate the
way that cracks. I might go the old cop away.
Nice to hear from you, Thanks for that. Twenty six
past nine here till twelve o eight one hundred and
eighty ten nine two. I hope you're all working on
next year's predictions. There's going to be some good ones.

(52:57):
I've got some exciting ones plan for next year. I'm
just looking at my predictions for this year. If the

Speaker 16 (53:56):
Here.

Speaker 3 (53:56):
It'll twelve. Be a part of the showft you. We're
talking about guttering, anything related about guting. This is a
show for you, including copper guttering, which I'm pretty interested about.
If you want to say anything about that, I don't
know what you'd say, but I'm up for it. Marcus,
what do you think about the idea of making it
mandate tree to learn to drive a manual before you
get your license. I think this will filter out all

(54:18):
the people we don't want on the road. There's no
manual cast for it. It's almost impossible to get a
manual car now, So what were they learning? That's what
I'm saying. No, I think it's a terrible idea, Marcus.
I want to take jets start a Sydney, but found
now to go to Melbourne's I had to take quantus.

(54:39):
I know the person said all those words. He said,
all these words are used during the weather forecast. It's
just to let you know that the forecasters don't know
what the weather is going to be doing. It may
know we might get heavy rain, there could be gales.
Oh so thought, I think the weather forecasters are very
good these days. Cheersney A twenty nine away from ten.

(54:59):
That might be a bit of us set story. Actually, people,
if you might want to comment on that, What do
you think about the checkout work? Is be able to
drink while they're there? So, because these days everyone carries
around a water bottle, what's the problem with them? We
don't have a drink? Why would that be a concern.
I guess they're worried about where they're gonna put it.

(55:24):
Maybe they should wear a backpack like one of those
things that the long distance runners have because what are
the jobs? Would you not be allowed water on the
job with you? Like a bus driver can have water
with them, I can't. I just trying to think of
a comparable thing. You get some info about that for me?
Would your dare? Is it to she see us from reader?

Speaker 2 (55:41):
Right? Oh?

Speaker 3 (55:43):
Yeah, I'll read that out there could be of interest.
I think that's a little bit miserable. Actually, it's a
new world a to fixate on the smeg well the
cook where I reckon that's probably, but we can't take
a water bottle. Surely teachers can take a water But
what are the jobs because you do not take a
water bottle?

Speaker 13 (56:02):
No?

Speaker 3 (56:02):
I think that's a bit tough because what are you
supposed to? What else yes to do? And what's the
problem with it? That's got to you might work in
the checkout where they get rid of them anyway? Else
well self check out, isn't it. I don't know what
they're worried about. What are they worried about that people
take steel water? Number ending in seven seven you've texted

(56:25):
me and not your mate. Seems like so quite a
particular legal things you've sent me there, So that's not
good for me, I sold a one hundred and eighty
eight a hot water cylinder for one sixteen at the
scrap yard last week. And also about having a drink
bottle at work when you're on the checkout, so that's

(56:48):
of interest to me too. Twenty seven away from ten.
But yes, the checkout New World, New World in the
checkout that allowed water bottles, how often you never break
because the most frontline services now have would be able
to have water with them. So the unions are onto

(57:09):
that a major supermarket company is denied responsibly for store
policies restricting staff access to what union laders say is
a basic right. Someone said, my local New World is
banning stuff having their water bottles to check out. Management
have said they canding water on their breaks every couple
of hours, with how many staff on instiding to work

(57:31):
through their breaks increase the risk of dehydration. Other users
suggest this is not a company wide mandate, it's from
stare to store the food stuff spokes which other hell
that policies do vary from stare to store, so they've
absolved responsibility for that and said it's up to the

(57:52):
local owners. But still that's poor. Twenty five to ten Matt,
This is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 13 (57:58):
Hey Marcus, Hey, just talking about copper Goyer, isn't it.
I was wondering that someone might know, you know how
they make all the water tanks and lines out of copper.
Someone suggested in my place that the blue staining coming
out on the white sort of sinks and showers in

(58:19):
that is from that, and it could be not good
for health. And I was just wondering what people think
about that.

Speaker 3 (58:32):
Yeah, I think probably copper has been used because it
is very good for because it's a completely look, yeah,
I don't Yeah, So it is it staining in your
bath and your shower from both in your bath from
both the hot and the cold tap, Yeah, because I looked.

Speaker 13 (58:49):
Under the house and the line is copper. But I
was wondering maybe it's the cylinder as well, because well
that copper too, isn't there that? Yeah, I never thought
it would be bad for health, but.

Speaker 3 (59:01):
I thought copp was something one of those metals that's
that they don't get all freaky decky about with the
health prospects. So I wouldn't be Yeah, look, maybe someone
might know, but yeah, I'm surprised that that would stain.

Speaker 13 (59:14):
Yeah, but it's been here since the nineties, But I
don't know. I just thought it was interesting.

Speaker 3 (59:19):
You know, well, I just had an interesting what part
of the country, because I know some places have different
treatments of their water.

Speaker 13 (59:26):
I've got rain water, okam the country?

Speaker 3 (59:29):
Ye understand, yep, good answer. In your in your tank
is just not a it's a plastic tank or a
galvo middle tank.

Speaker 13 (59:38):
Uh yeah, kind of fiberglass, I think, covering and liking
the roof.

Speaker 3 (59:43):
Yeah, okay, I'll see if anyone knows matts So thanks
for that. Would anyone know, if anyone anyone would the
copper affect the coloring and staining on your bath? If
anyone knows about that. That's what Met's interested. I'm up
there with him. I'm interested to people or someone's worried

(01:00:05):
that you could have wine in your water bottle or vodka.
It's a really good point, but that's a separate issue.
You breathalyze them. Could you do that, Marcus? You can
take a water bottle. B I guess it doesn't look
professional swilling from it all the time. Yeah, but with
people care, I mean, I'm just trying to think what's professional?

(01:00:28):
I mean, is it? Is it unprofessional to be to
be hydrated. I'm trying to think about another job. What's
another job that people aren't allowed to drink water? Or
TV presenter? I suppose you don't see old Pidello sculling
from a backpack or anything, do you? I know there's
cups of water on the table. Actually, if you're a
news reader, aren't there?

Speaker 16 (01:00:50):
No?

Speaker 3 (01:00:50):
I think that's I think that's I think that's a
bad lock making them not have it. I can't think
of any professional we need to be denied water when
you want it? What do people do? Teachers, police people, firemen.
They've got tanks of water, haven't they.

Speaker 2 (01:01:10):
No.

Speaker 3 (01:01:10):
I don't know that I can get a strong reading
on that one. I think it might be a bad look.
But yeah, Marcus, just to heads up Marley mate. Guttering
in their Typhoon range, available in either copper or titanium.
Someone said blue staining is due to a pH issue

(01:01:31):
eating the copper. So this is okay. So where's the
phy tank water should be? It must be something on
the roofe Could someone tell me more about blue staining?
Twenty one away from eleven at ten o'clock. Staining on
barks and stuff from baths and stuff from Copper. I'm
into that. Let's go if you want to talk about that,
let's be having you. If you're talk about that, that's

(01:01:52):
what we can go on about. Nineteen to ten. Someone
knows about jet Stars, like internationally ifione's got a player
review of Jetstar. Yeah, I'd like to hear what you've
got to say about that. I don't know if it's
got to a bad thing, but yep, that might be
something you want to mention. Now what else have we
got people tonight or anything else you want to talk about? Also, too,

(01:02:16):
do come through eight hundred and eighty tent nine two
nine two de text Marcus till twelve. Be good to
hear from you. And as I say, if there's other
stuff you want to talk about, I can handle it.
I don't know what is at the stage, but yeah,
keep those texts coming through two on nine to nine too.
I can tell you that State Highway between Topol and

(01:02:37):
Napier is still closed. There's been a crash there and
they're trying to get the trucks into the tow trucks
in there to get it moved. It must be a
heck of a situation. So that's going to take a
bit of time. I'll let you know as soon as
that is resolved. There's no real alternate roots routes for that,
so yeah, there'll be concerned for people trying to move

(01:02:59):
around there. So that's happening. But yeah, if you've got
other stuff you want to do it, all the lines
are free. We've got questions or anything else. Mainly we're
talking guttering and I'm enjoying that. But mainly it's about
how often you should clean your guttering and what your
regiment for that is twice a year some say, but yeah,

(01:03:23):
it's a fatty risky. I mean, you want to choose
your time. I think you want to plant. I don't
think anyone's got that much enthusiasm for jumping on roofs
these days. These days, ever since we've seen the scaffolding out,
it's made us realize how dangerous it is. That's a
main topic for the major topic that I'm also talking

(01:03:44):
about the situation with Jetstar. Some want to review abou Jetstar?
Are they good or bad? I'm looking forward to him
put on that also tonight. Yeah, that's what's happening, So
keep those texts coming. Seventeen to ten. I can seems
a little bit discombobbled by daylight savings. I someone said

(01:04:05):
it might be from the like it staining as whiteware Marcus.
Water bottles are just about everywhere these days, even in church.
So the Minister's got a drink bottle. People love it.
They carry it around, sip sip, sip. They go them
back to it. Of course they should be able to
do it in a shop. It's a miserable Jeff says.

(01:04:27):
Scuba diving is one activity with drinking water is not
a good idea very good text, that extremely good text.
Your taxi drivers have got water, your uber drivers have
got water, your bus drivers have got water, Your teachers
have got water. Your farm and have got water. Mike,
I heard good things about you.

Speaker 17 (01:04:47):
Mike.

Speaker 3 (01:04:47):
What do you got?

Speaker 18 (01:04:50):
Yeah?

Speaker 13 (01:04:50):
Hi?

Speaker 1 (01:04:51):
Is that me?

Speaker 3 (01:04:51):
Yes you Mike?

Speaker 19 (01:04:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (01:04:53):
Hi?

Speaker 20 (01:04:54):
How are you good? Thank you? Were you talking about
supermarket chickouts earlier?

Speaker 2 (01:05:01):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (01:05:02):
Correct?

Speaker 21 (01:05:03):
All right, yeah, And.

Speaker 20 (01:05:06):
Now I was thinking with you know, digital technology and
tracking and things. So if you're buying a shopping trolley
full of groceries and things and you scan your car
and all the rest of it, so quite obviously what

(01:05:28):
you have bought, Can we traced back to your own
bank accounts and that sort of thing, so, you know,
with digital surveillance and things, you know, obviously the medical
portunity can check on what you've been eating in your

(01:05:51):
life and how your health goes. And I think that's
a really good thing. So they can easily work out
with data on your shopping behavior through your life and
tracking your your spend at the supermarket to see, you know,

(01:06:14):
what sort of things happen with all the food you're
eating in the health conditions you get in your life.

Speaker 3 (01:06:20):
And that's amazing, so, you know, I think, I though,
I think the discussion were many talk about with whether
the people that are on the checkout should be able
to have a bottle of water to drink when they
want to.

Speaker 20 (01:06:32):
Oh yeah, that's a valid point, should they? Well, the
Christ of these times, the Christ, the particular Messiah, and
the similism for that is this the astrological sign of water. Yeah,
thank you, Marcus, goodbye.

Speaker 3 (01:06:52):
Gee self determined self determinating bank. Thanks for that. Wow,
that was interesting to a point to get in touch.
Hittell twelve. Marcus, we're one of the lucky travelers having
to detour. Thanks the state. How I five been closed.
We have just got out of gentle any on the state.
How I wanted topor and have endured your company on

(01:07:14):
the trip My pleasure, Marcus wept up Typhoon spouting when
we did our roof. It's expensive, but it's great. We
are in hookit ticker. You some convinced. I'm want to
go with Typhoon. I'm lucky the sounds of that, Marcus. Yes,
there will stain bath copper will be a brown stain.
We'd run off from a hill behind us. Water stain
will be brown. Cheers Joan, Well, that's an interesting texture.

(01:07:36):
It's impossible to read twelve from ten of My name
is Marcus? Good evening. If you want to be a
part of the show, how's everyone feeling? Are they wide awake?
Are they an hour or more awake? Are they overcompensated?
Why I'm so obsessed at daylight tables almost to a fault.
I almost bore myself with it sometimes. It's always been

(01:07:56):
such a big talkback topic in the early days, with
people going on about it. But yes, I'm always there
for it. But jumping. If you want to be part
of the show, oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty and
nine two nine two de text. Anything else you want
to mention be my guest. Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty.

(01:08:19):
It's mainly about should shop assistance? Well what about you
see if you're selling clothes right or if you're at
rebel Sport, you could have water, couldn't you? So why
not with groceries? I think it's I just think it's weird.
It's my take on it. But they've said it up

(01:08:39):
to individual shops, but.

Speaker 16 (01:08:40):
You know.

Speaker 3 (01:08:42):
It should be in their collective agreement, shouldn't it. That's
what we're on about tonight ten away from ten head
on midnight. Godada, Hi, Gordon, welcome, Sorry my fault, Gordon,
haven't pushed the button quite as well as I could have. Gordon.
It's Marcus welcome.

Speaker 2 (01:09:01):
Yeah, good evening Marcus. So I thought i'd just give
a call and a quick call. And regarding the pH
and water, thank you. The rain water in particular is
notable to be slightly lower pH lower than a pH
of seven, and New Zealand drink water standards dictate that
the water must be drinking water must be between seven

(01:09:21):
and eight point five, and below seven is asctic and
above seven is alkali, so you often find that rain
water is always slightly below a pH of seven, slightly
slightly acidic and limit that lands on the roof, depending
what's lying in the gutters and the type of roof

(01:09:41):
and the moss. But some organic material and stuff that
could be around, decaying organics creates in citizy, so it
could actually get worse as it goes from into your tank.
And then the environment in the tank also has an
effect light as well, So when you get down to
levels of around about six point eight, definitely by then
you're going to start noticing some bluey green stains on

(01:10:04):
your porcelain and on other areas. What that is is
the aceiths of the water is aggressive towards all soft metals,
and different metals will dissolve at certain phs, and particularly copper.
Copper is quite soft metal, so therefore it will slowly
dissolve and you see the reoxidization of that on the

(01:10:26):
surfaces in your bathrooms. That's physical copper reoxidizing into a
solid as it lands on your porcelain surfaces. So yeah,
it can be quite a complicated thing to sort of
talk about.

Speaker 3 (01:10:39):
Incredibly good explanation. Yeah, and is it more so on
the hot taps than the cold tips. Would that be
accelerated on the hot taps.

Speaker 2 (01:10:48):
Yes, Well you've got a copper hot water thorns usually
and so therefore you've got a whole lot more copper
that's in there. Last, when the water gets hot, very hot,
you actually slowly extract some of the oxygen out of
the water, which actually treats that the carmdox side that's
in the water is potentially higher. So like we get
when we get water coming out of the ground, we

(01:11:10):
can get water coming out of the ground, a lot
of quite acid water, which we need rain water. Sometimes
we've got to put a neutralizer to raise the pH.
So there's a line based product calcite, or that there
are other products that can be dissolved in the water
cleanly that will raise the pH to bring it above
p p h seven and below eight point five, which

(01:11:32):
is I said before, it's your dream work standards.

Speaker 3 (01:11:34):
But just check that. You just check that in your
water tank, would you, yes, yes, yep.

Speaker 2 (01:11:40):
So it's really really important to make sure you haven't
got a lot of debrian stuff lying around your roofs
and growing in the roof and on on your roof.
That's going to be part of the contamination created by that.
It's going to created a worsening situation where it gets
into the team.

Speaker 3 (01:11:55):
So yeah, I find that fascinating and also to it's
pretty hard to get that off the that's that stain
on the on the porcelain that's permanent, doesn't that's very
hard to remove.

Speaker 2 (01:12:08):
It is hard to remove. I don't know the product
that I use that I get people to use for
that differ the house and I'm solving a problem with
the water supply as a product called Done thirty second spot.
It seems to be very very good at removing it
off off surfaces. Depending on how long it's been there
and how old the porcelain that's gone out may have

(01:12:30):
lost its gloss and it may have gone into the
into the material itself. But apart from that, yeah, generally
we'll reduce it quite a bit. But you're ready what
what what people will find in that instance, Marcus, is
your copper pipes are slow to getting thinner and thinner,
and you might find around joints to get the blue
green stains and there are little bits of water dripping

(01:12:51):
out and your copper in the brass fittings, your crops,
nuts and things like that. You'll start dissolving and then
you'll put a spanner on them to undo them, and
they'll shatter like a piece of glass or and it's
because all the all the strength has been taken out
of the copper because of the acidity of the water.
It's not it's not really good for you to drink
because it's actually heavy metal. So you do really need

(01:13:13):
and you do really need to get on top of
it if it's an issue.

Speaker 3 (01:13:16):
But there's nothing better than copper pipes. Copper pipes are good,
aren't they as.

Speaker 2 (01:13:20):
Far as good? Yeah, yep, yep, yep, yep yep. But
you know they are compete with the plastic pipes. Of course,
you don't have that oxidization and and you don't actually
see it unless you've got a copper hot water cylinder
or other copper fitting somewhere which the water is going
through before it gets gets to the place the pipe

(01:13:41):
in the house, or or go through it after the
plastic pipe before it gets the attacks.

Speaker 21 (01:13:45):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:13:45):
So that's the reason why the counselors often had that
you run off a little bit of water before you
before you drink the water from the tap, because you
get maybe bath and copper and things like a coup
of fittings coming up to them. But that really, that's really,
that's not all that accurate, because if a house has
got a ton of copper pipe, how many leaders are

(01:14:06):
going to run off before you got rid of the
water that's been sitting in the copper pight It contains
a lot of copper. Yeah, yeah, so it's really you
should always be about seven.

Speaker 3 (01:14:17):
You're a plumber, No, I do.

Speaker 2 (01:14:21):
Private water supplies, water treatments and.

Speaker 3 (01:14:23):
A lot of them. Most of these problems, these issues
that you're seeing with houses on tank water, right.

Speaker 2 (01:14:30):
We have a bigger problem with tank water than any
other water supplies. Tank truth. But tank water is generally
known to be slightly below pH of seven, and it
can be very slightly you can, I understand there's some
literature that says it could be as low as somewhere
around about six point seven to seven. But once you

(01:14:51):
get down to say six point nine, just below that,
you'll definitely start to notice a little bit of copper stains.

Speaker 3 (01:14:58):
Fantastic, it's a fantastic call to Gordon unbelievable. Hey, that's
for this hour people. I'll be back after the news
if you want to come through. That's interesting that that
bad buddy is going to do halftime with the Super Bowls.
That's going to be interesting. I watched that. Wow, that's happening.
Get in Touch Hittle twelve. Anything tonight made about water water,

(01:15:19):
Get in Touch Hittle twelve, eight hundred and eighty nine.

Speaker 20 (01:15:23):
Text.

Speaker 3 (01:15:24):
You got to be a part of it. Yeah, we're
talking about guttering. It's very interesting. Actually, I thought and
Jetstar and anything else you want to talk about tonight.
We're broad because everyone's just combubbladd with a shift in time. Laurie,
this is Marcus. Welcome, good evening.

Speaker 9 (01:15:46):
Hi Marcus.

Speaker 6 (01:15:48):
On the guttering thing, I've got, the plastic or the
newer plastic is not quite as brittle as the old
you said it was prone to cracking when you put
the letter up against it. What I've been using is
you know that round foam rubber that I think people
buy it as a swimmer sister. Sometimes I think a fun.

Speaker 3 (01:16:09):
Noodle, a fun noodle, a fun noodle. Yeah, I know
those things.

Speaker 6 (01:16:12):
Yes, yes, if you could cut a chunk off off.

Speaker 3 (01:16:15):
A good idea, and you put that in the gutter, ring.

Speaker 6 (01:16:17):
Put it in the gutter. Yeah, and that's enough to
stop it bending?

Speaker 3 (01:16:22):
And what's the word, Laurie, that's enough? What enough? It's
not stuffing, that's.

Speaker 6 (01:16:26):
Enough probably well stop at flexing anyway?

Speaker 3 (01:16:33):
Enough Phil, it's enough fuller to stop at flexing. I
suppose you'd say, wouldn't you?

Speaker 7 (01:16:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:16:38):
Yeah? Did you get it?

Speaker 3 (01:16:40):
Where do you buy a noodle there, Larry? Do you
get one online?

Speaker 20 (01:16:43):
Or you get one.

Speaker 6 (01:16:45):
Pair of rubber?

Speaker 12 (01:16:46):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:16:46):
Well, my wife had been doing a lot of acerobic
since she hit a couple.

Speaker 13 (01:16:49):
Of them round.

Speaker 3 (01:16:50):
God, you're a resource for Larry. So can I borrow like?
Can I borrow you the noodle for the guta?

Speaker 6 (01:16:55):
Well? I think I just cut a chunk of it.
You wouldn't know. I think you mentioned before the Scott
Base was on daylight Saving, Yes, yes, yeah, And what
I'm going off I was on their webcams. The live

(01:17:15):
webcams have got five there and they're all on n
Z d.

Speaker 3 (01:17:18):
T and it's McMurdo on it as well. Because I
always thought the murder McMurdo was the same time as
Scott Base.

Speaker 6 (01:17:24):
I think they probably do keep and sink because of
the flights coming from YT.

Speaker 3 (01:17:33):
Yeah, okay, and.

Speaker 6 (01:17:35):
Then I assume Pole Station probably would have the option
of being on all sorts of clocks, but they probably
coordinate with McMurdo as well. Yeah, but anytime I'd have
been down there usually was over the summer, usually leaving
you late October and coming back in feb So we
were already there was no didn't have to change clocks

(01:17:56):
that I recall that.

Speaker 3 (01:17:58):
Yeah, I see on the news of the weekend, Laurie.
It wasn't just you looking for Tom Phillips family of
the aero photography. It seems like there's all sorts of
people and they went there with rans and special forces
and all sorts of people.

Speaker 6 (01:18:10):
Yeah, yeah, they had quite a selection. I'd only they
didn't sort of share that information with me at the time.

Speaker 4 (01:18:16):
They just know.

Speaker 6 (01:18:18):
Yeah. No, obviously they were trying all sorts of things,
and I think at the time when they did use me,
they thought it.

Speaker 4 (01:18:29):
Was being less.

Speaker 6 (01:18:32):
Less obvious or less fast and even trying to put
a big drowne up or you know, have a choppel
or you know, one of the military stuff coming over.

Speaker 3 (01:18:41):
I live there a but nice to talk think you
living past ten. By the way, I've got an announcement
from Wakakatahi. This guy's very good. We've got this. Blair
Cunningham's very good with emailing of me these days. And
Blair heads off to you because I think you're extraordinary.
State Higway five southbound now open following lily a truck crash.
The southbound land of State Hi five Napier topal riders

(01:19:04):
now he opened following a truck crash truck roll blocking
both lanes. The southbound lane remains closed for now. No,
he's got he's got this wrong. It says the southbound
lane that has reopened. Then it says the southbound lane
remains closed for now. He needs to check that. Is

(01:19:26):
he sitting you an email to Dan? Yes, so that's confusing,
there is it should be nor so the southbound's open,
northbounds closed, right, he needs to check changes. I might

I can help. I don't so from Toeport Napier is sorry,

(01:19:51):
Toeporter Napier is open. The other one is closed. The
reviews of that is closed. So to make such a
mess of that, people just TOI abst Jen Marcus welcome.
Oh hello mars Hi, Jen, you cope with savings?

Speaker 18 (01:20:06):
Doesn't make any difference if.

Speaker 3 (01:20:09):
You have clocks to change or just do nothing? Just
do nothing.

Speaker 18 (01:20:12):
Yeah, these clock aren't My phone changes by itself, and
so I don't know itice any difference.

Speaker 3 (01:20:20):
What time do you want to Jane? What time do
you want it to be? Do you want us to
treat you like it's quarter past ten or quarter past nine?

Speaker 20 (01:20:28):
Doesn't make any answer, Gallery.

Speaker 5 (01:20:33):
Catterine.

Speaker 18 (01:20:34):
Yes, Now have you seen Phil Spencer on that program
where he's looking at he's been new homes that have
been built in New Zealand.

Speaker 3 (01:20:45):
He's like, yeah, I quite like him. I haven't seen him, know.

Speaker 18 (01:20:50):
Well, one of the houses built or the architect was
a cute little Asian lady. I don't know which Asian
country she's from, but very clever architect and.

Speaker 12 (01:21:05):
Some of you.

Speaker 18 (01:21:06):
It's out. It's so on the roof and ice some
stuff and quite a high rainfall, I suppose, But anyway,
they don't have any gutters around the house. The water
comes down off the roof into a sort of gutter
along the ground and it's quite wide and so the

(01:21:28):
grass goes right up to it. And it's full of stone,
but they're guttering that's on the ground. And then if
they're on a slope, so the water just flows through
the stones, probably filtering whatever has come off the roof.
And if it snows then it just goes in there too,

(01:21:49):
quite safely. And so theres no bother with block drains
and down pines and all that rubbish and hastle. And
you know, if I build a house, which I'm thinking
of doing, I'm going to have that sort of guttering
along the ground.

Speaker 3 (01:22:09):
And this is jan this is centralw Tiger was it,
I'm not sure.

Speaker 18 (01:22:14):
Because I don't write down. It was beautiful home. And
also she had a walk through from one room to them.
I think it was the master bedroom to the next bedroom,
and the walkthrough was through a joint shower, so the

(01:22:36):
shower could be used from either room and it was
also used as like a little walk through from one
room to another. Thoughts the use of space too in
your house now, the copper if they used to have

(01:22:57):
copper bards for people that have had rheumatism, right, and
you can soaken and it will leads to a lot
of the pain. So I think that's a very.

Speaker 3 (01:23:13):
Good people wear those copper things around their wrists, don't they.

Speaker 18 (01:23:17):
That's right, that's for rheumatism, and that's writers. I think.
I'm not sure so coppers are very good, you know,
metal for a lot of things. I think.

Speaker 3 (01:23:30):
Nice to hear from you, Jan, thank you for that.
Keep it going, people you want to talk eight hundred
and eighty T nineteen nine to text Marcus still twelve.
Be nice to hear from you. Guttering is what we're
on about tonight. That's good.

Speaker 6 (01:23:46):
Paul.

Speaker 3 (01:23:46):
Noodles are available at the warehouse, of course they are.
If you had to choose one store, would you choose
the came out of the warehouse. Because I hate to
say it, I'm refirming in the warehouses camp. I don't
like all the bad blood they feel these days. Always
find something I want at the warehouse, Never find anything
I wanted Kmart. I'm old school. Love the warehouse. Actually

(01:24:12):
searching for long shoelaces the heart. There seems to be
a shortage of shoelace. There's no other the supermarket that
got any There seems to be a run on shoelacers.
I meant to go to the warehouse before work. I
bet they wouldn't let me down otherwise going to do
the cobbler. Now, what about people working at New World?
Should they be able to drink bottle of a sip
on if they get thirsty? What's your thoughts on there?

(01:24:35):
Because I can't think of any other job where they
wouldn't let people drink water. Name one job where you
couldn't drink water? And I think it t apeace artists
as a job, well it maybe, but what's one job?
Maybe if you're wanted the women on deal, no deal
that turns the cases, you wouldn't be allowed water could
look to but from anything else. I can't think of

(01:24:56):
one job where you couldn't have water. Anybody, even the
TV presenters have water. So yes, get in touch Marcus
till twelve.

Speaker 8 (01:25:10):
M.

Speaker 3 (01:25:11):
Let's be hearing from you eighteen past ten. Now this
is me and welcome. It's twenty one past ten. If
you want to come through about guttering or about we're
taking water to work with you, who would be opposed
to it apart from draconian bosses? We imagine that I

(01:25:31):
know you can't have a drink of water. This sounds ridiculous,
sounds Dickensian. Yeah, I said it Dickensian big story today
some beigon Reddit. They don't know what big on Reddit means. Oh,

(01:25:55):
they hand out bottled water at Mountain in prison like
it's going out of fashion. Thank you for that, Marcus.
The only thing about water check out operators with water
bottles is important they not touch any part of the
bottle they put in their mouth. For of his high
gene reasons, a screw top lid should be fine. Putting
an upper nozzle by hand to drink from is not.

(01:26:16):
I don't think you're allowed drinking water and operating theater.
It's a very good point. I'm sure you could have
a glass with those as long as you turn the
tap on with your elbows. Marcus, cura cura pete. Sorry Marcus,
Oh that's a joke. It's a wolf cam joke. Is
anyone mentioned the risk of class fesh at facia was

(01:26:39):
tort as the draft and to always show the height
at front of the garter below the height of the facers,
so water flows not out out, not into the building.
I have color steel spouting. Someone said, it's the time
it takes you the toill after drinking the water. That's
the problem. They've said water blood. They're they're not. I mean, yeah,

(01:27:02):
I don't know what the answer that is. Someone said, one,
they've a sponsored New World drink bottle. Exactly, that's a
sensible thing. They're a smeg one. Get in touch here
till twelve. Oh wait one hundred and eighty ten eight
nineteen nine to text, Oh wait, one hundred eight. I'm

(01:27:29):
looking forward to her responsors and your calls. Yeah, do
come through if you want to talk. Just to Jan's
introduction to her call, I'm pretty sure the Arctic she

(01:27:51):
talks about is Anne. Marie Chin and New Zealander grew
up in Otago and Southland. Just so you know, Charlotte's
Marcus welcome.

Speaker 7 (01:28:04):
It's good, ealy you yes. On the subject of the
water bottles, you sort of wonder if maybe something's happened
in one of the stores and that's why they want
them banned. Maybe somebody's spilt water on one of the
sort of scanning machines.

Speaker 2 (01:28:22):
Or something, and that could happen.

Speaker 7 (01:28:24):
But yeah, because I mean the sort of a few
years ago and when Eastward for Telecompton, before we had
these water bottles, they were not happy about people having
like cups of drinks sort of at their desk because
they're worried that people would accidentally spill them on the computers.

Speaker 3 (01:28:42):
Yes, and looks I'm the same too, because not only
not only are they worried about and radio studios about
people spilling stuff. We have all done it. It's a
very common thing in radio is to spill your drink
and which is fine as long as the text now,
because otherwise it can damage the you're wiring, So I

(01:29:04):
mean it building a breakfast, we have a coffee with
breakfast ready or whatever. They're remarkably understanding of it, but
we've never been told. They've always said, hey, be careful
with it, and we all would be, but we've never
been told, no, you can't bring drinks into the studio,
which I think is a reasonable thing.

Speaker 7 (01:29:22):
Yeah, but I can understand sort of a staff's concerned too, though,
because people are worried about dehydration because back in the
eighties when they used to work for George Courts and Henderson.

Speaker 3 (01:29:33):
Oh, yes, the.

Speaker 7 (01:29:35):
Office of the where the shop front was, even with
both the doors open in the middle of summer between
three to five, when the sun's starting to go down,
there's no ear conditioning and there's no tinted windows, so
the sun that has just streams straight in the windows
and it's like a greenhouse, and it's so hot some

(01:29:57):
of the staff it's like they're almost passing out. But
of course you didn't have like the modern water bottles
you got nowadays for the staff to drink out of.
I can understand how sort of the stuff they have
a concerned with dehydration. But I can also see how
maybe the reason I want that I want the stuff

(01:30:18):
having the water bottles is they're worried about their equipment.

Speaker 3 (01:30:22):
You're able to find someone that actually works us too,
that can let us know, because I think I'm the
same peoples hanging off a bottom and a problem with it.
But thank you there, cal Mita Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 10 (01:30:32):
Good and do how you.

Speaker 3 (01:30:34):
For good? Thank you?

Speaker 20 (01:30:36):
This is very good.

Speaker 12 (01:30:37):
In Germany, we have water aquifiers, so the water supercharges
from the sun. We also add gold, nickel and titanium
to the water aquifier with the concrete from concretions, so
the water absorbs the minerals and they are the metals
inside the water. It also supercharges from the sun, so

(01:31:00):
it is supercharged water. And the problem you need is
maybe a water fountain area work, so the members or
the employees can drink in the water something area only.

Speaker 3 (01:31:17):
Although I think you can't really leave your post when
you're in a supermarket, can you.

Speaker 16 (01:31:22):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (01:31:22):
This is correct.

Speaker 12 (01:31:24):
However, one of the problems is the water may affect
the electrical currencies in the register. But they should have
maybe the employers or they should have specified times or
specific times they are allowed to drink from the aquifile.

Speaker 3 (01:31:47):
I'm pretty interested in the aquifi made. Thanks for that.
Some texts probably a perceived hygiene issuey mouth regards Rowan. Yes,
I let you check out your own food. I guess
that's checking out your you're going to get your ear.

Speaker 16 (01:32:00):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:32:02):
I think it's against the lord and I allow people
to drink water. You imagine so market's probably because of
the random any color bottles they drink out of. You
World should produce their own company name bottles, especially for
all of their workers there. Wow, water water water, water, water,

(01:32:23):
water and the checkout. Good on you, Bleaar your legiend
Blair's come back. It's the northbound lane remains closed for now.
I felt good with my communication with Blear. That's gone well.
So yeah, it's fantastic. I'm just so excited the inded
Tia has giving us the community that someone there at

(01:32:43):
this time of the night. That's fantastic. So southbound lane
of State Hiwow five Nape Topo has reopened a tot
tracks beyond site and the southbound lane heading has now reopened.
The northbound lane remains closed for now. It's exactly what
we want information someone there to apply to emails. Very
very happy about that. Gives me a huge confidence in

(01:33:04):
ended TA Welcome. How are you going? What's happening out
there in listener Land? Do come through eight hundred and
eighty ten eighty. There's measles in Queenstown. Yeah, a lot
of ten parties in Queenstown on the weekend. Is it
marriage season? You wouldn't think so, would you? Thanks to

(01:33:26):
a twenty eight away from eleven. By the way, I've
got an email from a guy called peanut Finger, which
is a great name for someone. He's saying that air
buses brought out had to bring out a modification for
the A three fifty airliner after two separate cases of
pilots bring their drink on the cockpit seenter console, short
circuiting the jet engines back to the idle position, which

(01:33:47):
begs the question people can pilots take water? Because I
would imagine for most jobs, if your high performance the
way the current thinking is now, you'd want water to
keep you hydrated because your performance is better if you've
got water. So any pilots out there, let me know.
I mean, tell me a job we're forbidden to take
water because I can't think of one. Someone said a surgeon,

(01:34:08):
but I reckon they probably could. I haven't really been
in a surgery with surgeons, apart from i've been in
birthing sweets. I don't know if there's people had water
bottles there or not. We don't know the answer to that.

Speaker 20 (01:34:22):
But there we go.

Speaker 3 (01:34:23):
Twenty seven to eleven market or twenty seven to ten.
We've got one caller that doesn't do dall out savings,
don't we It aims Karen. Of course it is Karen
twenty seven to ten for you anyone else's and Jen,
I think you're an anti daylight savings person. So that's
what's happening. Be in touch if you want to talk

(01:34:44):
Hettel twelve oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty anything
else you want to go on about that's what we're
here for tonight, drinking at work if you don't have
a water bottle. This is not a good look for
a new world. They've kicked a touch and says it
is a new world, isn't it down? I better get
the supermarket right, Ah, new world. But they've said it
comes down to different shop owners. We'll have some moxy.

Speaker 6 (01:35:06):
We have some.

Speaker 3 (01:35:08):
Yeah, you know what I'm saying. I should just say
I know that's wrong. We should people should be able
to they should show some leadership managements. I know we
are worker should be able to drink water twenty six
to eleven, just in our own news out of Australia. Actually,
Climb won't be getting the mon't be blowing the whistle
at the final on next weekend because of his shock

(01:35:28):
against Melbourn. I don't really watch that match because on air,
but that seemed to be the case. I thought the
refereeing was pretty good last night too. I love talking
about the footgehel. I love talking about the third to
the fight, don't they or third to the fight anyway?
Hey lines free water and oh we're actually all water
theme because we're talking about spouting and what's your plumbing
routine when it comes to your gathering. And then we

(01:35:49):
are talking also about Jetstar are international flights, how good
they are, and we actually to take water to work.
If you're on the checkout now, if none of that's
your fancy, then do your own fancy. Tell me what
you're doing to talk about it?

Speaker 12 (01:36:03):
Up for it.

Speaker 3 (01:36:06):
You think, go oh something. There was some discuss about
the rider cup to and how badly behaved the Americans were. Ghastly.
Someone said no water allowed as a police diver. Yeah, probably.

Speaker 17 (01:36:30):
There we go.

Speaker 3 (01:36:30):
I can't think of one job apart from the police
dive where you couldn't have water, Not one, Marcus. I
think the company is thinking the opposite. By not letting
the starff drinking more water, there's more staff that won't
need to go to the toilet as much sucking on
a water bottle might eliminate those and name conversations, had
a good day, et cetera. I'm an old school I'd

(01:36:51):
never expect to be allowed to drink outside my brake times.
Well you should. The world's changed. We're no longer sitting
the children up chimneys. Should ever sip it? I mean,
I'm not something that lugs around the water bottle. I
always find it a strange obsession, people's obsession with hydration.
But you know, I've got to recognize and realize a

(01:37:12):
lot of people are into it. They should be allowed
to be into it. And it probably if you listen
to all the literature, it probably makes them probably more
onto it. At work. I don't mean they would have
vodka in there wood day and if they can, well
that's fine, if they can handle it. Twenty one away
from eleven HITDL twelve Ben. This is Marcus.

Speaker 21 (01:37:30):
Welcome, Yeah, Marcus year. Last month I flew to Melbourne
for the weekend. Flew over on Jetstar back on in
New Zealand from from Queenstown. Sure, so I flew out
of Queenstown. You know, it's actually a short fight to Melbourne.
It's only about three and a half hours.

Speaker 6 (01:37:51):
Now.

Speaker 21 (01:37:52):
I can't fault the Jetstar service. It was great. So
was in New Zealand. The only difference between the two.
In New Zealand, your knees weren't hard up against the
seed in front of you. There was a little bit
more eager Jetstar. You were like, yeah, it just felt
like you're creamed. And so I can't recommend highly that
someone you know pays for the seats with extra legroom

(01:38:16):
if you're going on you know, for the sake of
an extra twenty five bucks.

Speaker 2 (01:38:20):
It's yeah, two questions.

Speaker 3 (01:38:22):
Two questions are Jetstar same planes and Jetstar got more
seat to them that what they've done?

Speaker 21 (01:38:31):
I think, what what do you start do? Is I've
got several rows at the front and then several rows
in the middle that have extra legroom, and then you
can pay extra and so, but then the rest of
the seats seem to be space closer together to accommodate
those ones with the extra legroom.

Speaker 3 (01:38:48):
Are you tall or just get panicked in small spaces.

Speaker 21 (01:38:53):
On cool I'm tallish and yeah, like in New Zealand,
I wasn't up against the scene in front of me Jetstar.

Speaker 3 (01:38:59):
I was so yeah, it's good, good information, but.

Speaker 21 (01:39:05):
Service wise no I thought they were. I gets our
international seems to be a lot better than you know,
find the no frills fight between sort of christ surch
and Auckland.

Speaker 3 (01:39:17):
Do they go on too? Because I've always thought Jetstar
are pretty good on running on time. They go in
time at Queenstown.

Speaker 21 (01:39:23):
At Queenstown, yea, they were definitely on time out of
Melbourne in New Zealand. I think we had a half
an hour delay, but it wasn't too bad.

Speaker 3 (01:39:30):
What's happening in Melbourne? What did you get up to, Ben?

Speaker 21 (01:39:33):
I just seemed damy yep, all good.

Speaker 18 (01:39:37):
Yeah, yeah yeah.

Speaker 21 (01:39:38):
The old man's gone into a into an old folks
time a few months ago, so it was catching up
with him as well.

Speaker 3 (01:39:44):
Nice to hear from you, Ben, Thanks for that. Nineteen
to ten, nineteen to ten for you care in nineteen
to eleven for everyone else here to midnight monume is
Marcus welcome yeady yeady, yeahy yeah, yeah yeah yeah, Oh
I forgot they went to Melbourne out of Queenstown. It
was all my our retired nurse surgeons get given and

(01:40:06):
drink some food fed by the nurses. Some ops take
hours and they can't sit down either. I thought they
must say yeah, so they have the nurse would give
them a what it be like on the in our house,
someone runs on the field gives them a squeeze. Good information,
that's Susie welcome. Oh are you good?

Speaker 10 (01:40:26):
Mark?

Speaker 22 (01:40:26):
If you're talking about water bottles. The last three times
I've been overseas to Australia. When I'm going through to
board the plane, I get told to empty my water
out and I don't know why that is.

Speaker 3 (01:40:38):
It's a good question.

Speaker 22 (01:40:40):
I don't know. It's happened three times. I'm not doping.
I have been asked to tip the water out of
my bottle and I can't understand it.

Speaker 3 (01:40:49):
Okay, do you want no answer?

Speaker 22 (01:40:52):
No, Yeah, I've been recent to know if that it's
happened to anybody else, but I'm not pulling your leg.

Speaker 18 (01:41:03):
That's what I was asked to do.

Speaker 3 (01:41:07):
Yeah, I think that happens to everyone. Susie, I think, yeah.

Speaker 22 (01:41:10):
I realize that, but I don't know why.

Speaker 3 (01:41:13):
Marcus, there is a liquid explosive that they someone tried
to bring down a plane with liquid explosives.

Speaker 22 (01:41:19):
All right, that's understandable.

Speaker 3 (01:41:23):
Yeah, and I just don't think what it actually was.

Speaker 2 (01:41:26):
Yeah, now.

Speaker 3 (01:41:34):
They did find someone trying to bring down a plane
with it. I don't there's the shoe bomber, but I
forget what he actually did. This guy went on board
and he had a powdered orange soft drink along with
a large number of batteries, and they reckon He's going
to probably a sembler bomb. He was on the plane. Yeah, right.

(01:41:58):
At one point during the surveillance, investigators witness the man
drilling a hole in his soft drink bottle so could
fill it could be filled with explosive liquid while still
appear to be unopened. Wow, So it was a hydrogen
peroxide liquid explosive that they could put the drink container.
And that's and he was just seen doing that in surveillance.
And because of that, no one can take liquid on planes, right, Yeah,

(01:42:23):
but it's a bit of a complicated answer. I'm pretty
sure that's it. You'd agree with that, Dan, Yep, you
blow it up. Sixteen to eleven you no, that's right.
You got to that's where you just could take Yeah,
I mean, yeah, liquid explosives. They didn't think it was vodka. Today,

(01:42:48):
I don't think that's the answer. Fourteen sixteen, sixteen to eleven,
Catch you soon, fourteen from eleven and thanks for joining
us on this daylight Savings day, the first of the
full days with that. So, yeah, it might appear later
than this. It'd be strugging get out of the bed
in the morning. They'll go to bed later, no surprise.

(01:43:10):
We've done it for about forty years. We should begin
to be more than forty years. That might be fifty years.
We had the fiftieth anniversary of Daylight Saving probably have
I feel like it was in the early eighties. He
romance on after meet tonight. That's a situation. It is
Starbucks day. I see Starbucks. Yeah, it was just to

(01:43:34):
an article about Starbucks on the weekend. What does it say?
It was quite interesting. What was the thing about Starbucks.
I tried to get into people ordering the coffee via
text remotely, and it shook at everything and they started writing.
They started putting dockets on cups and no one likes that.
They go back to using sharpies anyway, and they it's

(01:43:57):
the had a uniform that hasn't gone down. So well,
that's all I kind of can tell you about that.
They brought some other guy from Taco Bell was going
to revolutionize it. But yes, their store year by, Yes,
as numbers haven't grown up they expected. They've tried to
make the places look softer and more accommodating. This is
an America out of that temple in New Zealand. I

(01:44:17):
don't know if you Zeeland's getting more and more Starbucks
or were static. I think that in the coffee market
because there are thousands of Starbucks stores. There's a Chinese
version of Starbucks which is really taking them on and
doing huge around the world. But I think it's surprised
how there's a national Starbucks Day. That sounds like a
bit of product placement to me. Anyhow, just so mentioned

(01:44:43):
that since that's happening, I think people waiting too long
for their coffees as well, so not enough staff. That's
basically the story of the world these days. By the way,
I've also talked about the Tasmin cheese company Kuvella, which
has gone under after twenty years, which is a sad story.

(01:45:05):
They always seem like nice people, cheesemakers and to be
passionate about their product. There you go, And what else
can I tell you? It's around the world. Well, maya
am about Guta, Oh the World's eyes bridge. It's worth
going on looking at this is in China. It's just
done a three k's long that in a short length

(01:45:26):
of time. It's it's amazing. It also gonna be terrifying
to be on because it's a really high bridge, but
it's just four lanes, two each way, so it's quite
a narrow bridge and you actually walk it as well.
I think it's in the mountainous part of China, which
I don't know, but I presume it's mountains looking at
that bridge. It's also a tourist tructure with a glass walkway,

(01:45:49):
bungee jumping and a rope swing. It cuts travel times
from two hours to one minute. I don't know how
China affords all it's Oh, I don't know how they
afford all its infrastructure. I think I think the key
to China is they focus on training people that are
engine where as in America that trained people focus on

(01:46:09):
training people that are programmers. And basically, when you want
to infrastructure, want engineers because that's the key to all
of it.

Speaker 4 (01:46:17):
Now, we.

Speaker 3 (01:46:23):
State Highway five is open now. Both lanes of State
Hiway five Napier Topel Road are now open following a
truck crash early this afternoon. A fifty k speed limit.
We're playing in place overnight through the site of the
kreshnaire to poor Hui, please drive the conditions, expect the
laser the condition eases, and take care traveling through the site.

(01:46:44):
So yeah, that's the situation there. It's knowine away from
eleven hit till twelve. Roman from midnight seven from eleven
People of New Zealand. Welcome and good evening. You don't
know why it's the situation, and I felt like it's
been Sunday all day long. I don't quite know what's
going on with that arkison during the conversation. I don't

(01:47:07):
night shift here on a fone terr of milk tanker
and the Whackadol. Have a neighbor who's a holiday place
at Fidianger. Turned up there two weeks ago and all
is guttering copper guttering had been stolen.

Speaker 17 (01:47:15):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (01:47:18):
Wow, Because I'm looking at the price. From what I
could work out, there's probably forty kilogrammers of guttering in
a house at ten dollars per kilo, it's four hundred dollars.
That's what it's worth now. I can't imagine you'd sell
it for that, would you. There'd be a premium on
going under cover on the on your fence, so what
would you get toit of bucks for it for an

(01:47:41):
hour's work. I don't know what to say about that.
Someone's emailed me it says their women are worse? What's that?
An email about a text about God? No understand what
that is? How do I find the rest of their texts. Yes,

(01:48:02):
Douget's Marcus welcome.

Speaker 19 (01:48:06):
You know, I was just listening to the water thing.
There's a couple of things I would say about that.
I'm a retired teacher, and when I was a young teacher,
I had a mate who was going to be a
pilot and has been a pilot since, and we went
all over to New Zealand on small planes. Basically it
was very cheap. It's a cheap way of going around
having a holiday. And I don't ever remember some of
those trucks will be pretty long, and I don't ever

(01:48:28):
remember being thirsty or having water or anything. But what
I do remember from school and from teaching was that
you just don't tell people they can't have water. The moment,
especially young girls, the moment you tell them they can't
have water, that suddenly it's an obsession. They want water,
they need it. It's not something you can stop them.
You know, you can't say don't be silly or anything,

(01:48:50):
which people do. You know, in front of me they've
said to them, girls, don't be studying. Of course you
don't need water. You know, you can go for morning
tea sort of thing. But they really can't. But once
they get thirsty, they want water.

Speaker 3 (01:49:02):
And hydration has become a core celebra for mean, he
hasn't it. That's what they're all about there, having much
as water as they can all the time.

Speaker 21 (01:49:10):
Yeah, I do think.

Speaker 19 (01:49:11):
I do think it's the thing as well. I think
that it's been encouraged by, you know, by people who
are causing mischief other kids in the class. Sometimes we're
in a classroom situation, you know, I'll go with a
drink of water something, But my advice would be to
just calm the whole thing down and get the water
bottle them and they if they need to have it
sitting beside them, met them, have it sitting beside them.

(01:49:32):
I mean, as obvius, they're not gonna squeeze it someone else.

Speaker 3 (01:49:35):
In some stores and some New World stores, they're banned
from having it. From a night workers point of view,
I ever excited about dart it saving because it means
that I sort of get to go to bed bed
hour earlier. I get to bed before midnight, an hour
before midnight. When you go back and you know, when
you reconvert it to the old time. And I love

(01:49:57):
it when the kids ask me the time I can say,
which we all do in our families. I say, I
mean the old time of the U time as we
still convert for a day or two. Love that also.
So if I bored you at tears yet, come on,
I'll get you on the phone before you know it. Now,
what else have I got to talk about tonight? We've
got any breaking news for you?

Speaker 1 (01:50:17):
Not much.

Speaker 3 (01:50:18):
The Ryder Cup has finished. The American supporters were atrociously behaved.
I don't quite know how they're going to save the
sport from that. They can't ban spectators, but gee, you
can't tell spectators really what to do either. But it
wasn't good. It wasn't good at all. So and that's
about all I've got from for your people. Blossom Festival

(01:50:41):
Alexander very good. It did rain, but the parade was good.
The event afterward was very good. Enjoyed that a lot.
Did I see anything interesting? Not really, but yeah, one
of the great festivals that's been game for a long
long time, the Alexander Blossom Festival. Enjoyed that very much.

(01:51:03):
It was a bit about my weekend, so yeah, kids
stay in town. But yeah, anyway, what's the time fifteen
past eleven? If you want to be a part of it.
If there's something else you want to say, and I
look forward to what you want to go on about. Oh,
that's right, here we go. That was something I meant to.
What did people think of the Hot Wheels show? So

(01:51:25):
I have heard some people say that it was a
little bit average, So yeah, I think people were bored
by it. So I meant to meet that earlier on
tonight because it done three lots. I think they've done
Auckland and Wellington. I think they might have Aukland might
still be going. But if you went there, what did
you think? Because I heard it was a little bit anyway,

(01:51:47):
that's get to the texts. Some people with the low
blood pressure need to consume rigging amounts of water go
to the toil and drinking water are basic human rights, exactly.
Can't have a drink bottle at work if you're a
scuba diver, Marcus, I work on a checkout at PNS,
and we're able to have water bottles in our check out,

(01:52:08):
but we're going to ever slip after we've finished saving
one customer before we start the next, So not in
the middle of a sale. Sale. Have to sanitize our
hands after each drink. What do we think P and
S's oh pecking slave yeap. Bus drivers are allowed to
drink my bus ride drinks like two of the drinks
a day. While driving. You must remember a baby has

(01:52:28):
feed times, cows get milk the same hovery morning, that
ad is ready that time, not now, stoner lay to
have to reset. Thank you for that. Hot Wheels verdict
was a bit slight to start, so five was a
bit over it and hungry by the end, but pretty
good overall. And someone's talking about a happy Gilmore was
what it was like at the Ryder Cup. Hello, Sam,

(01:52:51):
this is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 9 (01:52:54):
Hi Marcus, How are you good?

Speaker 3 (01:52:55):
Sam?

Speaker 14 (01:52:57):
I just wanted to turn and you were speaking about
water before, but really you think it's important And I
just wanted to share that I've been on the Carnival diet,
in the low car diet for quite some time and
really getting the health benefits of that. I don't know
what the other listeners have found.

Speaker 3 (01:53:11):
How do you feel?

Speaker 14 (01:53:13):
I have lots of energy, lots of mental clarity, great energized.

Speaker 3 (01:53:19):
Incredible eight nines?

Speaker 12 (01:53:23):
What was that?

Speaker 3 (01:53:24):
Eight times nine.

Speaker 14 (01:53:27):
Nine seventy two?

Speaker 3 (01:53:28):
Are you got mental clarity?

Speaker 4 (01:53:29):
Good?

Speaker 2 (01:53:29):
One.

Speaker 3 (01:53:30):
Yeah, that's goods. I'm just testing it. You don't think
all that meat sits heavily within you.

Speaker 14 (01:53:37):
If you eat grass fed meat, it really just tastes
delicious and the broke body just loves it and uses
all of it, so it just doesn't sit there at all.
It just goes through the system and gets soaked up,
I find.

Speaker 3 (01:53:50):
Anyway, So what are your mainly eating meat?

Speaker 14 (01:53:54):
Grass fed beef? You know a bit of bacon, eggs
for breakfast. I enjoy salmon, the lamb. I do have
a little bit of rice, but it's yeah, coffee with butter,
long blacks with cream. It's a fat focused, protein focused diet.

Speaker 3 (01:54:17):
How long have you done that?

Speaker 9 (01:54:17):
For?

Speaker 20 (01:54:19):
About four or by months now?

Speaker 3 (01:54:21):
Okay, and the weight's fallen off.

Speaker 14 (01:54:24):
I have a lot lost of the weight, got a
bit more ripped on. Haven't really done it the health issues.
I've just had a mate who was doing it and
he had incredible benefits. In thought I'd give it a
go and it seems to sit well with me.

Speaker 3 (01:54:35):
So what happens with people? Do they tend to stick
with it or they tend to give up on it?

Speaker 4 (01:54:38):
Do you know?

Speaker 3 (01:54:39):
I mean, I guess it's probably expensive, is it?

Speaker 14 (01:54:43):
It is a bit pricey, probably not, Probably a little
more expensive than a lot of the cheaper processed foods.

Speaker 9 (01:54:51):
You often eat.

Speaker 14 (01:54:51):
But you're cutting out a lot of carbs, a lot of.

Speaker 2 (01:54:57):
Bad oils.

Speaker 14 (01:54:59):
But it's not easy to stick to. It can get
quite boring. But good meat is actually pretty tasty.

Speaker 3 (01:55:04):
And I would imagine if you're not having cut you're
not craving food, are you, Because sometimes you've got cabs
Your crave food quite a lot, won't you. It seems
to sit up some sort of craving within you.

Speaker 14 (01:55:14):
Yeah, definitely, definitely, Yeah, those cravings have dropped away, and
I've got more of a sustained energy focusing on fats
rather than carbs, which is essentially refined sugar.

Speaker 3 (01:55:28):
You're not worried about other health consequences from eating so
much meat.

Speaker 14 (01:55:33):
I haven't found any health cont.

Speaker 3 (01:55:36):
They might be long term the way.

Speaker 14 (01:55:39):
M I should get a bud test.

Speaker 3 (01:55:40):
I guess, no, well, yeah, okay, that's not a yeah, okay,
that's not a bad thought. But yeah, I don't, I
don't know, I just I just I mean, it's like
a lot of people get obsessed about what it's like
that cave it's just the same as what you're doing,
the same as a caveman's diet.

Speaker 14 (01:55:55):
Yeah, bulletproof caveman.

Speaker 2 (01:55:57):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that.

Speaker 3 (01:56:00):
Guy there was that guy just even livers wasn't there
he was and he was off the Yeah, he was
a bit dumb.

Speaker 14 (01:56:04):
Yeah, I'm not sure about eating organs. They say it's
pretty good, but you don't need too much of it
if you're eating good coling.

Speaker 3 (01:56:12):
You know, beef, and have you got bored of it
already having to do different different recipes and stuff. We're
just eating it like without much elaborate cooking.

Speaker 14 (01:56:23):
It's pretty simple cooking. I need to expand a recipe base.
But it helps have a mate doing it too, so
we get a bit and spoke from each other.

Speaker 3 (01:56:31):
And the butter and the coffee is good.

Speaker 14 (01:56:34):
Oh delicious, really satisfying.

Speaker 3 (01:56:37):
Nice to hear from you, Sam, Thank you. Twenty one
past nine eleven, Marcus dairy farmers have to wake up
at two in the morning instead of three to get
the cows, and it's a necessary torture getting your body
awake that early. Marcus daughter took the four year old
and eight year old to hot Wheels, said it was
hopeless lots of talking. You've Earnice has been to that too,

(01:56:59):
been to the Hot Wheels. So I can't quite work
out if it was a real deal American show walk
quite what it was, but the people I had spoken
that went to it thought it was a little bit.
Hello Jay, this is Marcus. Welcome. Hllo there Hi Jay,
great things welcome.

Speaker 23 (01:57:18):
I just want to encourage everyone who's around Palmerston area
to go and look at the most beautiful red blossoms.
It's with the Esperanade. I went there yesterday just blew
me away. The share beauty of these beautiful pink blossoms
and there was hundreds of people with the only lots
of families taking photos under them. It's just like I

(01:57:42):
just I've never seen that quite like it, quite practically
from from Arrington.

Speaker 3 (01:57:46):
So this is Palmist, Palmiston to the South Island, Palmerston
North Okay, Okay, okay, of course, Pabasta North.

Speaker 23 (01:57:56):
Yes, the frink of the Esperanade and the share beauty
just blew me a while, very emotional. But the share beauty,
I've never seen it quite like it. I never seen
it before just ten seventy on the wedding, So it
was just a special special day to go down there
and just go up.

Speaker 3 (01:58:16):
Did you go up from London?

Speaker 12 (01:58:18):
Yeah?

Speaker 16 (01:58:18):
I did.

Speaker 23 (01:58:19):
Yeah, I just got back tonight. I listen to you
guys every night.

Speaker 3 (01:58:23):
What's what's the what's the flower?

Speaker 23 (01:58:28):
Beautiful bank blossoms? People travel all the way to Japan,
we go to the blossom festivals over there. But we've
got this incredible beautiful thing. They just all come out
and I'm talking about row tree after tree. It just
really takes you away to see how beautiful these beautiful

(01:58:48):
trees and the flowers are on the gardeners there.

Speaker 21 (01:58:51):
That's great.

Speaker 23 (01:58:52):
We're going to get out and walk around and appreciate
how blessed we are to such a beautiful place. And
armi mister North and encourage people to.

Speaker 3 (01:59:01):
Go where's the I've never quite where. Where's all the
blossoms around the square?

Speaker 9 (01:59:06):
No?

Speaker 23 (01:59:06):
No, I suppose called the maybe some of the Palmer
lists could hold.

Speaker 3 (01:59:10):
Oh yeah, is it there by the river?

Speaker 10 (01:59:13):
Yeah?

Speaker 23 (01:59:13):
And they're going down towards the river. Yes, called the Espliner.
There's a fantastic restaurant and goodies down there as well.
And they've got a train thing and everything, one of.

Speaker 3 (01:59:26):
Those model train things there, but they freak me out
of it.

Speaker 23 (01:59:29):
Yeah, a lot of ones that I don't like.

Speaker 3 (01:59:32):
How you ride a train with your ride sitting on
top of the carriage. I always think that's weird.

Speaker 23 (01:59:37):
Yeah, let's be one day and for TONI each years
and years ago. But I'm about too for tho. But
that's winting. Courage people to go and just enjoy the
ship beauty of these beautiful pink blossoms, and all these
photos have been taken. There's a couple of hundred people
down there easily yesterday afternoon.

Speaker 3 (01:59:58):
Okay, yeah, that's good. Okay, that's good. But what did
you say the trees where we don't know what they are?
Some sort of ornamental blossom.

Speaker 23 (02:00:04):
Right, yeah, beautiful pink I've been there for a number
of years, I think, and there's dozens of them in
a row and going right half and around, and a
lot of other beautiful aroses and places as well. But
it's just it's breastaking. It really is. I mean, not
really a gardener or a cow person, but anything quite

(02:00:25):
like it. I think we should visit it a bit
more and encourage people to go for a walk of
their ones and families and mates and girlfriends, and I
think they just have a wonderful time. Some people take
picnic baskets down there as well, and I just want
to advertise that it's.

Speaker 3 (02:00:40):
Fantastic, nice sentiment. Jay, thanks for that. Twenty eight past eleven,
David's Marcus good evening and to you Marcus.

Speaker 12 (02:00:50):
Here, do you enjoy the rugby league?

Speaker 16 (02:00:51):
The penis goodness me?

Speaker 3 (02:00:53):
Oh, I thought there was a thought there was a
sinclating game of rugby and they do say that sometimes
it's a game of two halves. Penwith seem to be
completely dominant that first half and there was a couple
of runs and something happened. That's second half and the
whole thing.

Speaker 16 (02:01:07):
Absolutely they didn't square a point in the second half.
Pener goudness me. Cherry blossoms here in Hagley Park looking
very impressive. Has been raining here in christ Church and
I was going to mention wilding pine I have found
out I found out a little bit about that can
be Pinus radiata. What makes the difference is the pine
trees has not growing in a plantation. It's outside the plantation.

(02:01:30):
My question to that is why not just culture these trees,
especially around the keen Mackenzie Country and what have you,
and embrace them, use them for what we use them
for for building material and what have you. Now, hot wheels,
no idea what you're talking about the hot wheels market.

Speaker 9 (02:01:47):
So I've got no clue.

Speaker 3 (02:01:48):
Okay, I'm glad you asked that. You know, for children, right,
m how they signed to get match box like cars
and they'll send them down sort of plastics, yellow strips
of racetrack right. Oh yeah, and you can do loop
the loops and things.

Speaker 12 (02:02:08):
Right.

Speaker 3 (02:02:09):
Yeah, Well that became a big thing in America and
they've they've gigantified these small cars, so there's actual life
sized cars going down tracks and doing loop the loops
and it's become a stadium show. Oh so it's like
Monster It's like Monster trucks, but it's got a hot
wheels focused so that they're giant cars based on the

(02:02:30):
toll on the toll on the small cars. So they
blow them up, not literally, but they make them much
much bigger, oh.

Speaker 16 (02:02:38):
Life size or even bigger than that.

Speaker 9 (02:02:41):
Oh right, Monster trucks.

Speaker 16 (02:02:43):
Then yes, I'll row and doing those jumpies and yeah,
what happened.

Speaker 3 (02:02:50):
Yeah, it's bigger in America and now they've brought it
to you, and I don't know what it's I heard
people said it was slightly scared. It's Mattel. Mattel is
the people that do those, so they're the ones behind it.
But yeah, I guess we have someone to bring up
and tell us what it what it was really like,
because I've got no idea.

Speaker 16 (02:03:08):
Yeah, they do that a lot with motorbikes, what I mean, yeah,
jumping and what have you, and seat grabs and the
supermen and what have you.

Speaker 9 (02:03:17):
Yeah, yeah, okay mate.

Speaker 3 (02:03:18):
But there is a loop the loop. And the thing
about the loop the loop is you gotta go to
a certain speed and the certain speed's not that fast.
It's about forty kilometers alway, though it would be faster. Yes,
I do think it was. I do think the Monster
Trucks is going to be well, it's went into this
weekend or next weekend year, so there's still things available
for that. So if you want to go to that,
you can. Yeah, I just don't know if it's any

(02:03:40):
good or not. That's what I'm wondering about. Everyone actually
went to Monster Tracks and Willington, Dunedin. They do the
loop the loop, but they are cars that look like
toy cars made life size or even larger than life
size cherry blossom trees. And Alexander with visiting, just been
to the blossom festival as ahead. I I live in

(02:04:00):
Woodville and the pink blossom jay talking about Palme is
a cherry tree blossom. Also, you sit in the model
trains trailer. Not scary all, It's not scary, it's just
the size is all wrong. Look a giant riding a
kids train. Yeah, okay, Marcus, there'll be cherrytree blossoms from listen.
Pay you tour big on blossoms. You know what I think,

(02:04:23):
and I know that you. I shouldn't always sell what
I think. It always disappoints me that all these trees
are planning for their blossoms are not their fruit. I'd
rather the was fruit trees right throughout the street to
Alexandra rather ornament. Ornamental blossom seems a waste to me.

Speaker 19 (02:04:39):
Hi, Brian, Hi, Marcus.

Speaker 24 (02:04:43):
I just want to speak about in Hastings. They used
to have the blossom fest of all and they probably
still do.

Speaker 3 (02:04:51):
I think it was.

Speaker 4 (02:04:52):
I think it was.

Speaker 3 (02:04:52):
I think it was last weekend.

Speaker 20 (02:04:53):
Yes, yeah, and.

Speaker 24 (02:04:56):
It's quite it's a big thing up there, and when
I lived there, it was magnificent. You know, I go
out to see the bossoms and you.

Speaker 3 (02:05:11):
Grooth energy what I was always surprised about. You know
how they have the they have at the at the
they have the floats made from blossoms. They're just made
out of crack paper blossoms, which I was surprised by.

Speaker 24 (02:05:27):
Yeah, well that's probably defeating the purpose, isn't it.

Speaker 18 (02:05:30):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:05:30):
Well yeah, no, I just I mean, I look great.
I just never knew that. But I guess what else
would they make them out of? But you I don't
know how the whole things, how the whole thing started.
Where are you now, Brian?

Speaker 2 (02:05:40):
Let me?

Speaker 3 (02:05:40):
Are you at Wellington?

Speaker 24 (02:05:42):
No olive in New Plymouth?

Speaker 3 (02:05:44):
I wonder where e'se Diplymouth?

Speaker 6 (02:05:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 24 (02:05:47):
Oh oh it's beautiful.

Speaker 16 (02:05:49):
Have you have you voted for?

Speaker 3 (02:05:50):
Have you voted for your local body elections?

Speaker 10 (02:05:52):
Yet?

Speaker 3 (02:05:53):
Uh? Not yet?

Speaker 24 (02:05:56):
As I do intend to.

Speaker 3 (02:05:59):
There's a guy that calls this show called Peter b U.

Speaker 16 (02:06:01):
I s Peter.

Speaker 3 (02:06:04):
You should give him a sneaky teck, take him and
get him off my hands.

Speaker 24 (02:06:07):
I'm not aware of him.

Speaker 3 (02:06:09):
Okay, give me go. If you see him, it'd be
a character and he's going to fix us on these problems.
But yeah, i'll give him a you know, if he'd
give him a sneaky tick, just because he's caused the
show from time to time. Good evening, Alex, this is Marcus.

Speaker 9 (02:06:25):
Welcome, Hey Marcus, how are you going?

Speaker 3 (02:06:28):
Good Alex? Thank you.

Speaker 9 (02:06:31):
To get how that's what you got twenty minutes ago?
You say him a lot. You're one of the yarn
So it's just what's on my mind? Do you think
the New Zealand public are a bit harsh on the
old all backs at the moment? Don't we just expect
them to?

Speaker 22 (02:06:46):
I reckon went well, but I reckon, I reckon.

Speaker 3 (02:06:49):
I'm exhausted. But I didn't watch it.

Speaker 9 (02:06:51):
You didn't watch it.

Speaker 3 (02:06:52):
No, I watched the I watched the a f L.
It started half an hour earlier, and I got so
consumed and I tuned two to the rugby and we
scored Newly Try and that yeah, yeah, I don't know.
They don't seem to be the behind them, was it?

Speaker 6 (02:07:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:07:07):
And it was because normally I find with AFL this
one team takes the lead and you know, and they
just but this was even at halftime, so it was
an exciting match. But yeah, I am because last last,
last time we got a hiding and this time we
played kind of well. But people are still saying we're
not good enough.

Speaker 2 (02:07:25):
Is that right?

Speaker 9 (02:07:27):
Oh yeah, that's right. I think it's just that sort
of standard New Zealand rugby sort of public.

Speaker 16 (02:07:34):
You know.

Speaker 9 (02:07:35):
We just we're so harsh on the All Blacks. You know,
when they when they went well, it's it's all great
high fives and we love Scott Robson and all that.
But when we come up, you know, against some difficulty
that you know, Scott Robson the right en for the job.
They's just the right team, you know, got wil Cup

(02:07:55):
coming up. That's just so negative and I'm thinking it's
just you know, I spent a bit of time in
Europe and I lived in France and just the way
that they support Sporto there so different to hear. You know,
they support it because they love the game and they
love their teams and they love turning up in the
weekends and watching their team play. And yep, you know,

(02:08:16):
the're Blacks. It's not the same team anymore. But do
we not just you know, world rugby, it's a lot
more even evenly fought and contested at the moment, it.

Speaker 3 (02:08:26):
Which is exciting. I mean the rugby Championship, I mean
it could come down to an I just think, I
just think the whole media behind the game is just
always a bit joyless.

Speaker 16 (02:08:36):
You know.

Speaker 3 (02:08:36):
I saw on the TV tonight there was there was
I don't know who it would be, a be Jeff
Wilson and who's that guy they called Beaver and there's
a you know, it's always you know, there's not any
genuine laughs. It's just so serious. Who's where they should
they bring players from? There's not you know, you see
the footy show for league and it's it's you know,
they generally have a lot of laughs, but never a

(02:08:59):
rugby there are any laughs. It's it's just it's exhausting
to watch.

Speaker 9 (02:09:04):
It is you know, you go to a sport game
and I'm talking about any sport, rugby, football, whatever, you know.
In Europe, UK JOD the atmosphere at the stadium is electric. Yes,
it's electric.

Speaker 8 (02:09:19):
God.

Speaker 9 (02:09:20):
You go and watch the All Blacks play and they
might even be playing well gods a bit and it's
just silent and the crowding around and then you are
All Blacks and looks like we are so serious and
we take it.

Speaker 3 (02:09:32):
I think we saw that when we went to play
Argentina and Argentina pat Us in Argentina, the fans were ecstatic.
They were jumping and bouncing the whole time.

Speaker 4 (02:09:41):
Anything.

Speaker 9 (02:09:42):
We treat it like it's the end of the world. Here,
you know, the All Blacks aren't beating teams by twenty
points every weekend. It's like, it's not the end of
the world. It's good, you know, it's good that the
state of rugby internationally is at that level where every
every game is going to be tightly contested.

Speaker 2 (02:09:59):
I think it's awesome.

Speaker 9 (02:10:00):
But no, you don't either hear that media, no.

Speaker 3 (02:10:03):
One, Alex do you reckon rugby is better to watch
at home or at the stadium. I think it's one
of those games it's probably better to watch at home.
So I don't think the real fans are going to
the matches.

Speaker 9 (02:10:16):
Well, that's obviously at home. You've got you've got your
heat hunt, you've got your bears close to here, ye
about ten minutes away. But I think people, maybe people
don't go to the games because they are boring, you
know what I mean. The Rugby could take take a
leaf out of awkward Left Sea's box. You know, I'm
not even a football fan. I've been to a couple

(02:10:36):
of games and far out it was a good time.

Speaker 3 (02:10:39):
And the same people that support the All Blacks, because
I presume this crossover, they really get behind the Orc
and Left Ce, don't they. They're jumping and shouting.

Speaker 17 (02:10:45):
Is that right?

Speaker 9 (02:10:48):
Yeah? Yeah they are. Yeah, But yeah, guys, I grow
tired of it, you know, like I do love you
grow up loving Rugby, playing, watching.

Speaker 17 (02:10:57):
And.

Speaker 9 (02:10:59):
I just get so disheartened by our fans and how
we sort of talk about it, and it's everyone's dorm
and going, god, you all back to lose a couple
of games. I'm sarr out. You know, that's the coat
you get rid of. The coach I saw.

Speaker 3 (02:11:14):
John Mitchell did well. John Mitchell coach the England woman
to victory. Look happy.

Speaker 9 (02:11:19):
Remember on a journey he would be stoked, wouldn't he
New Zealand sort of?

Speaker 4 (02:11:25):
You know, we didn't like him.

Speaker 3 (02:11:27):
We didn't like him when he was here. He head
on the corporate speak.

Speaker 9 (02:11:31):
No, that's right, that's exactly right. But no, I just
had it on my mind, Marcus. I thought you've you're
almost done here.

Speaker 3 (02:11:39):
Yeah, no, I appreciate you coming through, Alex. Thank you, Blake.
This is Marcus welcome. How are you good, Blake.

Speaker 15 (02:11:46):
That's the story. I'm just going to be any buddy
Daylight Savings chat for you. So I'm a chuck driver
as my job, and I'm jumped in the truck on
Sunday to start my work and I was a clock
in the chat was an hour out. So I thought,
oh yeah, I'll change that, but you can't actually in

(02:12:07):
my truck change it manually. It's all done by time
zone and try to change it, but it changed it
back four hours instead, so it was stuck like it's
still stuck like that now.

Speaker 3 (02:12:21):
Oh wow yeah? So so what time is it in
your truck?

Speaker 15 (02:12:29):
It says it is ninety seven.

Speaker 3 (02:12:32):
You get to get other manual, will you? No, it
won't be in the man No, it's not.

Speaker 15 (02:12:37):
It says in the manual. If it's got the GPS
allocation for the time or whatever, they bloody class it
as to do it automatically. But it didn't. And I
clicked the automatic and hope still hasn't changed.

Speaker 3 (02:12:52):
So do you want me to do you want me
to help you out.

Speaker 15 (02:12:55):
Well, I thought I was young enough and enough to
do it myself, but I'm obviously not that switched on.

Speaker 3 (02:13:01):
I didly cause a quest on just my clock as
I was driving, So I wouldn't recommend that. What will
you do about it?

Speaker 15 (02:13:06):
Well, probably just leave it. Can't cause too much fuss
over it, I guess.

Speaker 3 (02:13:13):
No, it'd be annoying me endlessly.

Speaker 15 (02:13:16):
Well, yeah, but I got my phone sitting next to me,
so I'm going to study.

Speaker 3 (02:13:20):
Are you in the truck? Do you share it with
other drivers?

Speaker 13 (02:13:23):
No?

Speaker 15 (02:13:23):
No, it's just my truck.

Speaker 3 (02:13:24):
Yeah, you don't owner operator?

Speaker 15 (02:13:27):
No, not an owner operator. But where we work, what
your truck? You know, one truck, one driver sort of thing.

Speaker 3 (02:13:33):
Have you not got some some person looks after the
fleet to do something with it?

Speaker 15 (02:13:38):
Well, probably, but it seems a bit men of skill
compared to some of the other things that need fixing around.

Speaker 3 (02:13:43):
No, No, you've got to fix that. That annoy me
because if they if they let that go, they let
everything go that you tell them about that, they've got
to fix the truck.

Speaker 15 (02:13:50):
Well they just they just bloody put in a new
gearbox in your truck. So I don't want to annoy them.

Speaker 9 (02:13:54):
Too much.

Speaker 3 (02:13:55):
No, I get onto that. I'm not happy with you
been four hours behind Blake, last chance to talk if
you want to come through. He's right the way we've
taken the joy. We've sucked the joy out of rugby.
Too much analysis, too much analysis, paralysis. I know what
more to say about that, but yeah, yeah, I felt

(02:14:17):
too exhausted to it, not too exhausted to watch it,
but I was sort of looking for it. Actually, I'm
not looking forward to it. I'll just be endless. And now,
I mean, if we win, it won't be good enough.
If we lose, it'll be the end of the earth.
One of my predictions for next year is that we
lose the Fortress, that we get beaten at Eden Park.
That and I've got my prediction. I'm working out my

(02:14:38):
predictions for twenty twenty six. They'll drop butter from half
a ken down to four hundred grams. Luxon will grow
a bed over summer and be seen in crocs, The
Spice Girls will reform, and the all Backs will lose
it Eden Park. Because some of our predictions already coming right.
Our predictions for twenty twenty five, Round the Bays canceled,
lux and singing Crocs Greyhound racing band. Well that's happened.

(02:15:01):
Coronation Street will end, Trump will win the Noble Peace
Prize and Spice gills Bury the hatchet and reunite for
global tour. Dick Van Dyke lives e bike related death
on the rail trail, and Justin bieber To become a
priest or a cobbler. I think Daniel da Lewis became
a cobbler. That always seemed to be the thing to

(02:15:22):
do there for a while. That's my predictions for twenty
twenty six or twenty twenty five, et you I've forgotten which,
And my prediction is that Roman will be on after
me tonight and I think I'll get that right.
