Episode Transcript

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

Speaker 2 (00:11):
A't be.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
Welcome. Good evening, I'll be here teled twelve. It's Wednesday.
It feels like Wednesday. How'd you go last night too?
Because normally would the full moon? I sleep badly but
feel quite energized. Well, that wasn't how the script went
last night. Anyway, I've re engineered myself and I'm here
chirpy box of birds. For those of you in the
northeast of Hamilton, Tuna, the boil water notice has been lifted.

(00:39):
You can drink from your tap with reckless abandon You
need to have to give up on the rolling boil
and just drink, drink, drink. Because we had such great
response from giving people boil water notices, I think that
will be a priority going forward. So yes, well we'll

(01:00):
let you know. We might become that is the Water
Safe to Drink radio show. It become more and more
of a problem as years go on, I would imagine. Anyway,
welcome to the show. If you want to be a
part of eight hundred and eighty Teddy and nine two
nine two de text Markets till twelve, that'd be me. Hey,
I warned you about that Hot Wheels thing. I always

(01:23):
thought that looked like a bit of a scam, But
now it went from Dunedin to Wellington, then to Auckland,
and now I see fine. In Auckland. Some people are
calling it out and saying, eh, well, and I've looked
at all the photos of it. Right, this is Hot
Wheels Needing Park and there seemed to be no loop
the loop. I thought the whole thing was Hot Wheels.
Did you had trucks doing the loop the loop? Did
they do that or was it just silly trucks doing jumps?

(01:46):
It seems to me, for what I could see, and
I'm not an expert, it seems to me they just
brought down a peered down version for New Zealand. Is
that right? Because I've seen video footage from the United
States of America and the Hot Wheel Show had them
on a track during the loop. So if anyone went
to that and was wildly disappointed, let me know Hot

(02:07):
Wheels Monster Trucks Live. Because people said it was a
bit of a damp squib, and they said probably they
didn't take into account daylight saving Zah so it was
still light. They didn't really see the glow. It looked
to me to be shabby. And these things happen every
two or three years and they always underwhelm. But because

(02:30):
the families get fizzing and everything's all, that's the bucketless
thing they drive for days to get there. I think
people aren't prepared to say that, actually, how underwhelming it was. Anyway,
I didn't go. If you did go, let me know,
I suspect it might have just been a little bit sketchy.
That's sitting what some of the comments were saying today
in the news, And yeah, I've been aware of this
story and I've been ready for it. Glow, but there

(02:52):
was no loop the loop. In fact, what they really
looked like was just monster trucks with some bits put
on the side to make them look hot wheels cars.
They'd been better off doing Blazing the monster machines. That
was big for a while with the kids. So if
you'd go to that got a comedy by that, let
me know to oh, eight hundred eighty eighteen eighty. There's
the first off topic for tonight. If there's a boil

(03:13):
water notic you want to talk about, that's the second
off topic for tonight, where you want to mention a
boiled water notice, it would be good to hear from you.
Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty get in touch. We
got to talk tonight. That's what we're about. But yeah,
if you'd go to the Monster, the Monster Show, the
Monster Truck Show, you mightn't have been disappointed, and that's great.

(03:35):
I'm happy for you. I couldn't get the kid, damn
and kind of me I wanted to go. There's nothing
I could drive to Dunedin for a show. Always good.
Get in touch. Oh eight hundred eighty eight ten eighty
and nine two nine two to tixt you want to
come through. So we are talking about that tonight. There's
other stuff also on. Obviously, by the way, with the
local body elections, you can no longer post your votes.

(03:59):
What you need to do is drop them off in
one of the bins, not the rubbish bin, but the
rubbish bins that are orange, where you put your votes
in your local website and all the sites will be there.
I think tu nut has been quite low, so if
you want to vote, you should vote, well, maybe you should.
If you're informed, you probably should. That'd be what I suspect.
That's happening. So you go and do that if you
can too, because it's just Thursday Friday and there the

(04:21):
results are out on Saturday at midday. So there's that also, Marcus,
how old are you and you must have seen a
few full moons when the crazy people came out. Brian
last night was very very uncrazy. It was very restrained
people talking about the mail system and people in this country.
Boy oh boy, they have a lot of passion for

(04:43):
the postal system. Didn't go far back enough for me.
I would have gone bout like to going back to
the days of pigeon post It's a personal interest of mine.
I'm often on trade to be looking at pigeon grams
which they tie to pigeons legs to take from the
Mount Cook Hermitage to Timidou or from Great Barrier to

(05:07):
Great Barrier to Newton Road. I think where the loft
was for the pigeons. We're excited about all that. But anyway,
if you went to the monster Mash, someone's texted, do
the mash through the monster Mash. Very good. I've seen
what you've done that you've tied that in. But yes,
if you want to be a part of it, that's
what we're about tonight. We're about everything. World's first placemaker

(05:29):
implanted this day in nineteen forty eight, was as big
as a fridge. I don't know that, but I guess
it was big. But do come through, you want to
start the whole wall rolling tonight, eight hundred and eighty
ten eighty and nine two nine to text. I see
too that Graham Bell has died. The host of Police
ten to seven died after living with cancer. I wasn't

(05:56):
aware he was sick. I don't know how long he
had been sick for, but certainly he was involved with
promoting stuff on the radio. Was advertising stuff for jewelry.
Wasn't he get your jewelry checked out? Or something? So
that seemed to be quite recent. Of course, they've got
a new precenter for Place ten seven, didn't they? Anyway,

(06:16):
there is that anyway. I'll tell you I think has
probably got talked. I'll tell you how he's got I'll
tell you who I was. I'll tell you who I
think probably has chats about Graham Bell, and that would
be Jim Snedden. From his days as a Cadet reporter,
he always told me some fairly good stories about that.

(06:38):
I think it was quite a live wire in his day,
Graham Bell when he was doing that briefings to journalists. Rob,
this is Marcus, welcome and good evening. Let me push
the button again, Rob, Rob, this is Marcus welcome and
good evening.

Speaker 4 (06:52):
Oh can you hear me now?

Speaker 3 (06:54):
Yes, Cloud and Claire I could. I couldn't hear because
I hadn't pushed the button rightly. So it was all
my fault. Nothing you've nothing you've done is wrong.

Speaker 4 (07:00):
Rob, That's all right, You're forgiven anyway. Just with the
local local elections, the council and that no one shows
up because they don't get the same kind of maybe
a exposure that the every three years you get the
government elections and it's all over the news and all

(07:21):
in the newspapers, and there's all you hear about, and
you've got National and Labor and all those major parties.
But with your local body of elections, that your elections
that are for your counsel and that all you've got
is a poster on that someone's pinned up on a
on the fence and that's it. You know that they're

(07:43):
not reaching.

Speaker 3 (07:44):
I agree, Robin, and I think particularly in the regions.
The media has been so struck. There's no stories that
don't cover it. The media because they're they want to
get there wouldn't come from from from candidates spending, so
they just want the advertisement. They just want their advertising
from the candidates. So yeah, it's it's a situation where
the only way you name it there is to spend money.

Speaker 4 (08:06):
Yeah, that's all I wanted to say, though, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
Have you voted? Have you voted?

Speaker 5 (08:10):
Rob?

Speaker 4 (08:12):
Well, there was a guy that I wanted to vote for,
but they didn't send me the thing in the mail,
so I don't know how I'm going to do it.

Speaker 3 (08:19):
So Okay, you didn't get your forms.

Speaker 4 (08:22):
My ex partner got who one. I didn't get mine, So.

Speaker 3 (08:26):
You could just vote. You could just use your ex
partner's forms, could you.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (08:31):
Maybe?

Speaker 3 (08:31):
Yeah that's a joke. By the way, Rob, that's probably illegal.

Speaker 4 (08:35):
All right, Thank you, Rob.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
You should have been in touch with them early. They
want to set your some out, but I think probably
afterday it's probably too late. But you don't even know.
Probably someone was going to vote the opposite of you,
so they probably can sell each other out. Get in touch.
I'm keen about the monster trucks if you want to
talk about that. Also eight hundred and eighty Teddy and
nineteen nine to text here till twelve sixteen past eight,

(08:57):
do get in touch.

Speaker 7 (09:01):
Ah.

Speaker 3 (09:05):
Yes, by the way, and you the genet Zas are
limiting themselves to two hours per day on their smartphone.
Good luck to that. Get in touch if you want
to talk sixteen past eight. I think this is a
self limiting thing. Mind you. The Jeopardese spend most of
the time doing homework, don't they. I think, free, committed

(09:26):
and serious. There's some pretty interesting stuff on the internet though.
I mean there's some sketchy stuff, but I've got to
say there's some pretty interesting stuff as well. Our finding
being touched you on a talk. I've got other topics too.
I just want to find out a bit more about
the monster trucks before I move on to the topics.

Speaker 8 (09:44):
D jure.

Speaker 3 (09:46):
That's a bit of a personal goal of mind to
get some calls about that. I just kind of thought, well,
you know, these these outfits coming every so often, and
they underwhelm. Oh, here's a text, Marcus. I went to
the Monster Truck show on Sunday d and parked my
three year old nephew fell asleep during the show. There
was six monster trucks doing donuts on some small jumps,

(10:09):
a lot of lulls and long intermission. One of the
trucks broke after its first jump and wasn't used again.
They also had some motocross doing flips off a ramp,
which was quite impressive. Other kids around seems to enjoy it. Yes,
apparently one broke down on question in Dunedin. Marcus. I
worked at the monster truck show and people were streaming
out thirty minutes after the start. There was about twenty

(10:31):
minutes of monster trucks total out of a two hour show.
Advertising a show that started at three pm and finished
at five has been Glow and fire was false advertising too.
There's no way the glow would be visible at that time.
It's what I suspected they're You'd be better off to
go to the speedway. Marcus talking about water, there's an

(10:53):
os leg star reswatch says he love and it's prouderig
toilet water love you. Mike Michel Nelson, Pine Bit crew
on the eighteen shift. Yes, I think I thought that
Reese Walsh did well to lean into the whole Plumber's
water during his post match interviews and even was drinking
from a small cup, which I thought was quite fun anyway,

(11:15):
getting touched you on talk on em nam As Marcus
welcome eighteen past eight. The monster trucks and yeah, no
loop the loop, because I think when you look at
it from the Americas, it's quite a big deal. The
months the hot Wheels Monster truck shows seems to be
quite a serious thing. I just don't think it translated
over here.

Speaker 9 (11:34):
Anyway.

Speaker 3 (11:34):
They've got their money and they've gone. Seems to be
what happens seven seconds in the second quarter of the
Basketball Breakers fifty eight Illawarra forty nine looking down the
barrel of their first victory. I think this would be
but the first half just about finished. That's the second quarter.
We are talking tonight about the monster tracks. If you
went to those into Neden, Wellington or Auckland and what

(11:56):
was your take on that too. We're curious to know
about that. By the way, someone has emailed me it's
quite like this. Did you know that Melbourne has a
new underground metro system. It's got five new stations and
only took six years. Why does it take centuries to
build ours? Good point? Although imagine the AUS trainers have
a great sense of public transport. They love their trams.
That's what imagine it will be. Once you've got the

(12:17):
buying of the people, it's different to do things. There's
more of a will. I think that's where the Monte
tracks have gone, by the way. I think they've gone
to Australia. That's what's happening there. Oh wait, if there's
something else you want to mention too, feel free to come.
So you've got to set the whole ball rolling. Be
neat to hear from you tonight. Breaking news when happens
around the world. I'm I'm there for it. I'll bring
that to you all on guys locked in there twenty

(12:40):
three past eight. But be in touch with there's something
else you want to mention tonight, as I say, do,
get in touch um. Yes, the cricket. It's Friday night.
New Zealand play their third match against Bangladesh, so that's
coming up. Bethist this weekend also, and senior doctors in

(13:02):
tenders to sit and to strike twenty third of October.
I think the primary kids are out as well too,
So that's something I need to tell you. You've got
any breaking news. Let me know about that. Also to
eight hundred and eighty eight, Jeff, it's Marcus, greetings, welcome.

Speaker 10 (13:17):
Yeah, I got avery, Marcus. This house fire an orkran.
That's the most disgraceful thing I've ever heard. I didn't
I didn't know that. I didn't know that somebody had
deliberately litter and the police are looking for them. But
I also didn't realize that a father and son were

(13:38):
killed in the fire.

Speaker 11 (13:40):
Is that true?

Speaker 3 (13:42):
Look, I haven't got the full details. I saw that
two people were deceased in that. I could look that up,
or you could look that up yourself. Do you want
me to do that now?

Speaker 10 (13:51):
Yeah, if you wouldn't mind.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
Have you got have you got access to the internet? No,
I thought you'd run in with breaking news about a fire.
I guess that's what I thought, Jeff. I'll get that.
I'll get that informat, but obviously I'm trying to get
the conversation going as well tonight. Can you can you
respect that?

Speaker 10 (14:14):
Yeah, that's okay. I just thought you might have a
bit of update on it, that's all.

Speaker 3 (14:18):
Yeah, I've just got that. Yeah, I'm having on a
news room here. I'm just going to the usual channels.
So there you go. That's that. Do get in touch
eight hundred eighty ten eighty and nine to nine to
the text. I'll get that information for you if I
can keep those texts coming through. If you've got them.

(14:39):
Nine to nine two is the text number if you
want to call eight hundred eighty ten eighty and nine
to nine to the text. Canny, This is Marcus welcome.

Speaker 12 (14:48):
Hi.

Speaker 9 (14:48):
Yeah, hey, you go, Marcus goodny.

Speaker 5 (14:50):
I just wanted to bring up about Australia kicking people
out of their country and sending them back here for
very minimal offenses, like okay, yeah, I wasn't one of
the minimal offenses.

Speaker 9 (15:02):
I agree.

Speaker 5 (15:03):
I was adopted here at nine months of age, and
at the age of four, I've taken to Australia by
my parents and my two older sisters, and I didn't
integrate into Australia too well. I didn't feel a part
of the family after my sister's at the age of
six told me that I just adopted and I wasn't
their brother anyway to leave them alone. So I really

(15:27):
didn't integrate too well, and I left home at fourteen.
I went out in the streets as a homeless person.

Speaker 3 (15:33):
Sorry, sorry, Kenny, can I just interrupt this? Are you?
Are you a return five oh one?

Speaker 9 (15:40):
Yes?

Speaker 5 (15:40):
I am. I'm a return five o one.

Speaker 3 (15:42):
Now, okay, how long? How long you've been here?

Speaker 5 (15:45):
I've been back seven years and I'm still on the streets.
I'm still homeless. I mean, I don't know what is
going on in the century at the moment. I just
wanted to see if you'd heard anything that might change
my perception of this country, because it's devastating me. Honestly,

(16:05):
I'm at which end and I'm trying to figure out
what to do to move forward.

Speaker 3 (16:10):
Are you, I mean, Kenny, are you in Auckland?

Speaker 5 (16:13):
Yes, I'm an Orkland. I'm actually at Saint Luke's right now.
I'm right out in front of the New World there
and I've got my sign out and I'm begging for
people to give me a chance. My sign says I'm
not looking for a handout. I'm looking for a hand up.
I'm willing to work full or part time, do odd

(16:35):
jobs around your house. Whatever you need done, I will do.
God bless and thank you.

Speaker 3 (16:42):
What age? That's what age were you when you got
sent back here?

Speaker 5 (16:47):
I was old enough to know better. I was actually
tenning forty when I got sent back here, and I
left here at the age of four, So I spent
thirty six years in Australia. I've got two families over there,
to two different families with two different children in those families.
And yes, I mean I made erarors in judgment, but

(17:08):
they were errors of Australia's judgment, you know what I mean.
Like the scene I got into over there and I
was brought up in over there was the reason I
made those errors. And now New Zealand's got to pay
for it. I don't see why either, and I don't.

Speaker 3 (17:21):
Understand it seems as though there hasn't been much will
from sect of governments to change the Australian's otsue towards
five oh ones either.

Speaker 5 (17:28):
No, there's been no movement at all, and that's really
what scares me. Like in Australia put that much pressure
on New Zealand and treat New Zealand like this, but
you know they're sending all their problems back here. Basically,
anyone that causes any problem over there, that gets more
than a year's jail for even traffic offenses, now gets

(17:49):
sent back here.

Speaker 3 (17:50):
He has arrived with cant but you just got put
in a plane and arrived with like one hundred dollars.
Is that how it worked?

Speaker 9 (17:56):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (17:57):
Yeah, And I got one of the sent back here.
I got a first payment from Wins, which was three
hundred and fifty and that's what I got given when
I come back here.

Speaker 3 (18:09):
It's pretty brutal, that was it.

Speaker 9 (18:11):
That's all.

Speaker 3 (18:12):
And that's seven.

Speaker 5 (18:13):
Years No, no, yeah, that's seven years ago. But I
don't think it's changed. Honestly, I think it's still the same.
You go into wing.

Speaker 3 (18:20):
Look, I'm sure, I'm sure it is. I'm sure it's
It's incredibly confronting and brutal for people to come back
with no connections. You've got no connections here either, have you?

Speaker 5 (18:31):
No? No, I did. I came back here and I
met a Mauldi girl and we had a kid together.
And I didn't integrate into society over here so well
either and I ended up with a drinking problem. It
wasn't the drugs, it was alcohol, and I lost my
license to driving.

Speaker 3 (18:50):
Alcohol is a drug, of course.

Speaker 9 (18:52):
Yeah, yeah, I get it.

Speaker 11 (18:53):
I get that, but it's a.

Speaker 3 (18:54):
Legal drug, illegal drug. Don want to be pretending kid,
Look thank you for your call. I appreciate that coming through.
Question if I go fishing at bit for snapper eels
or white bait nicely part of my catch? Am I
not a commit commercial fisher? And is the hierarchy golf not?

Speaker 13 (19:10):
Now?

Speaker 3 (19:11):
Oh, I can't read that word, so I got to
retext that without this with the spell check people. Twenty
eight away from nine. If you want to come through,
as I say, oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty,
I would like to propose a change to both local
and general elections. Both have their terms lengthened to four
years space two years apart, alternating with Olympic and Commonwealth Games.

(19:32):
It's good thinking. Don't get your joke, Brian, but do
get in touch. You want to talk twenty seven away
from nine lines there free if you want to be available.
Guys want to be involved with the show twenty five
to nine. If you do want to come through, feel
free to get in touch. Oh, eight hundred eighty ten
eighty and nine to nine two de text were talking

(19:55):
about the monster trucks and five I one's talking there
to a five O one. Yeah, clearly it is what's
the end, but you know, not quite sure yeah, hard
to work out. I think he was as wit scene
with the state of what this country was in as
opposed to being sent back from Australia. Although I've got

(20:16):
to say that in recent times there have not been
as much comments about the five oh ones. I don't
quite know why, but the commentary on them has gone quiet.
Whether that means that you don't know what to make
of that, I don't think the problem has sort of
suddenly been resolved. That would be my understanding. There do
you jump And if you want to talk Marcus still
twlve anything I shoul want to talk about, feel free

(20:36):
to get in touch. I'll keep you updated with what
I've got to any other news happening around the world.
Feel free to get in touch. Oh eight hundred and
eighty ten eighty and nine two nine two to text
if you want to be a part of the show tonight.
Oh that's right, they're talking. Look sorry, they were looking

(20:58):
at having Oh no, I don't want to go there
with that though. Actually I was going to talk about
school holidays, but I think probably I could avoid that
as a topic. I think. Oh, by the way that
I'll give you the halftime in the breakers too, breakers
ahead from Illawarra. Hope this will be their first victory.
By the way they're saying too. With this three sixty
rugby league thing, I'm not even quite sure what three

(21:20):
sixty league is, if it's going to be rugby or
union or a combination of both. But there's all sorts
of athletes now have been touted as going to join this,
but they're saying if you go and play for there,
you'll be ineligible for internationals. I suppose if the money
is big enough, they're not going to care, are they.
There's about ten NRL players that have been touted to

(21:41):
be going across through the I think paynhas was one.
I think RTS was one. I think Pappenhausen was one.
So you're not quite sure what's going to happen there.
I thought there would be more discussion outrage about that,
but I think probably management. I just try to ignore
it and hope it goes away. I'm not quite sure
how much bottomless cash the Saudis have probably a lot. Anyway,

(22:04):
get in touch of you on two twenty three away
from nine. All the lines are free. There's something else
you want to mention tonight, Oh eight hundred eighty ten
eighty and nine two nine two to text. I will
keep you aware of news around the world. If you've
got used to let us know what you've got. Be
part of it. As I say, oh, eight hundred eighty
ten eighty. There is heavy rain warnings for today where

(22:29):
the front is set to bring significant accumulations of rain
to the West Coast from Thursday. That's tomorrow, with other
South Island areas also in fra Lashing and Wellington and
Wided Upper forecast to face strong winds. Also, there's severe
weather watchers Heavy and Westland with one hundred and ten
mills from eight pm tomorrow through until Friday. It's an

(22:51):
orange warning that one the front would be slow moving.
There was a heavy rain watching place for Bullet through
to Sunday and North Island. A strong wind watch wasn't
place for Wellington and Wided Upper from eleven pm Thursdays
till two pm Friday. Also strong wind in place for
Canterbury overnight. It's gonna be with warm temperatures though that's

(23:11):
the good sign. She's heating up and the grass will
be growing twenty one to nine sixty six fifty six
breakers over a LAWARA seven minutes to go in the
third half. Marcus is in the stage of Dejavus R.
Three sixty. Do you remember the Cavaliers? Wow, Marcus Wind

(23:33):
of the All Whites play next? I don't know. I
think what the World Cup next year, haven't we It's
exciting qualified again. I think they'll be our third appearance,
might be four. I think it's our third poll on
Friday morning. Norway next week with the great I think
Norway's got the greatest football in the world, doesn't he
Harland and then we've got Columbia and then Ecuador middle

(23:57):
of November. So four quick matches friendlies, I presume, but
still we're playing hard. We'll get ready for the World Cup.
I think every match is really a friendly. Nextss the
World Cup and it's it's a competition, isn't it. I
don't even know what that means. Friendly, So I guess
it goes for your world rankings. But lines are free
if you want to partake in the show. Marcus. Yeah,

(24:18):
my nephew' been here seven years. He's a five oh one.
I got him a house and he did the rest himself.
Got job, brought his partner and kids back from Ossie
he's just bought the house. He's in Balley for three
weeks and just got engaged. He's done all this on
his own. So you must still be able to travel,
just not travel back to Australia. I guess that's the
way it works for the five O Ones. Someone says,

(24:39):
ever since Australia sent the five O ones as countries
turned into a mess, Well, I'm sure it's not just
the five O Ones. I'm sure there's other factors. I
think the question is not whether the country is in
a mess. I think the question is when the country
is going to get out of this mess. And that's
I think that's what's going everyone fascinated. I think we're
not fascinated, but hopeful. I guess because she's a Yeah,

(25:03):
she's tough times currently anyway, seventeen away from nine if
you want to partake. Also talking about the monster trucks
as long, Yeah, I just always every time there's a
remember there was that group in total and one of
it was abysmal, like three years ago. Then they came
up to why erecor Park and actually despite it being abysmal,

(25:25):
the publicity was quite good for them. Everyone turned up
to us to see how bad it was, and they
thought it wasn't too bad at all in the end, John,
this is Marcus. Good evening, Oh good evening, Macus.

Speaker 6 (25:39):
Look, I'm I'm a fiver one and I don't know
what all the what all the fuss is about? You know,
we're not bad people.

Speaker 3 (25:48):
No, I mean the only fuss was a guy rang
that's been one and he's been here seven years and
he's he's doing it tough. I think that's what the
situation was.

Speaker 6 (25:56):
Oh yeah, well, you know, we're just like trying to
live our best life and just that I didn't like
everyone else, and I don't know why people give us
such a hard time.

Speaker 3 (26:04):
I think the point people, I don't, Yeah, I think yeah.
I think the discussion has always been that these people
are taken away offer when they were quite young, so
they expected to come back and get on their feet
with zero support and zero family connections. But you had that,
did you.

Speaker 6 (26:22):
Oh yeah, there's lots of family supporting connections around Lower Hut.

Speaker 3 (26:27):
But I guess there'd be some people that have gone
to Australia when they're very young and they know no
one here, and I guess those people struggle, right, No, No.

Speaker 6 (26:35):
I'm talking about lower Hut you know postcode five oh one?

Speaker 3 (26:38):
Oh oh yeah, that's humor right.

Speaker 6 (26:43):
Well, we're just trying to love our best life, daddy.
You know, we don't need everyone begging on us.

Speaker 3 (26:48):
Yeah, and johnn are you writing your own material or
you do your own stuff?

Speaker 9 (26:54):
What do you mean your own lines?

Speaker 3 (26:55):
You write your own jokes, owns.

Speaker 6 (26:59):
Yeah, it's not a joking measure, mate, you know, it's quite.

Speaker 3 (27:02):
A if you're gone, quite good. I thought he had
me talking seriously about it, but anyway, there we go.
But yeah, I don't even know what the lower Hut
phone numbers begin with, but there we go. Quite good.

(27:25):
Got me speechless, although I'd have to check if lower
Hut phone numbers do begin with five oh one, otherwise
it would be well is this a postcode? As as
a phone number? Might be his postcode? Jump? And do
you want to add to it?

Speaker 14 (27:41):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (27:41):
Wait, tend with you know the rest mark as till twelve?
Looking forward to what you've got to say? What about?
Here's something that I heard today too. I met someone
This is about worst advice, worst advice parents give you.
I was speaking to someone in their advice from their
parents is ever it looked like there was someone that

(28:02):
was about to abduct you or that was about to
so things were about to turn for the worse. You
should start eating grass to pretend that you kind of
what I don't actually know what the what the inference was,
but yeah, as far as print or advice goes, where

(28:23):
would you put that and the bad things your parents
told you to do in crisis situations? Because I think
probably eating grass is what I've never heard before. I
think the theory was if you're there eating grass, no
one wants anything to do with you, whether it would
work or not. I mean, thankfully, I think the person
hadn't that to put that to test, to experience it.

(28:44):
But as now, not thinking back on your life, the
advice you've got, you think, hang on that with sketchies
all get out. What was that advice? If I will
go there? If you want to poor advice, shaky advice,
very bad advice, or shocking advice or parental advice? You
got that, let's hear from you, oh eight hundred and

(29:05):
eighty today, nineteen nine to detect be good to hear
from here on midnight tonight. Anything else you want to
come through with yipia and the five O. I thought
that was quite good. Actually, the five oh one guy,
it's the postcode for Lower Hut. I'll tell you what,
I can never remember our postcode. Every time they else

(29:26):
for a postcod I got to look it up. It's
five oh something and bluff this Break and News will
bring that here for you tonight. People. If you've got
break and usually us know what's happening, text it through powerballs.
Just happened. Fifteen million winning numbers five eleven, seventeen, thirty, two,
thirty and thirty four three prime numbers. There half a

(29:51):
prime twelve away from nine. Catching a bit. We're talking
band advice parents gave you, particularly if it was to
do with abduction. I don't want to turn induction to
a laughing matter, but it does. It's pretty funny. I
was told by my parents who I was ever getting
kidnapped as a young child, to soil myself immediately would

(30:14):
be the right word of that begins with rhymes with
hits or an anagram of that. When I was young,
my dad said, I, whoever a group of dudes try
to beat you up, take a full your clothes and
start screaming. No one will touch you. When traveling in
cars with other teenage drives in the eighties, Dad would
always say to me to jump in the back seat
because it was safe for a crash. Kind of funny

(30:36):
though telling his daughter to jump in the back seat
made my friends chuckle. You might have some fun with that. So, yes,
bad advice you. We don't know if it was bad
advice or not. It could have been. I unfortunately most
of these advisors, this advice wasn't needed to be tested.
So sketchy advice about abductions or about how it seems

(30:56):
like it was quite common. Murray Marcus. Welcome, good evening,
good advice, Marcus.

Speaker 15 (31:04):
Current leadership of this country makes me want to saw
my chance as well.

Speaker 3 (31:08):
Here we go.

Speaker 15 (31:11):
We've had We've had a little conversation on that already tonight.

Speaker 3 (31:15):
Hang on, I don't even know what. I don't even
know w to go with talkback. No, no, what I
was going to say. I don't even know where to
go to talk back with politics because the people that
come through the way with politics with the support of
the government are so mean spirited when you get them
on air, it almost sucks the life out of the station.

Speaker 16 (31:34):
Right.

Speaker 15 (31:35):
Well, I'll try and keep it humorous.

Speaker 3 (31:38):
Yeah, so I'm talking about people that support the government. Yeah,
the last you know, you clearly don't support the government.

Speaker 15 (31:45):
I support leadership, and we're not getting it right, not really.
We're getting basically guest lighting windbags. And I'm of.

Speaker 3 (32:00):
Is the leadership improving?

Speaker 15 (32:02):
No, it's not. I'll give you one example.

Speaker 16 (32:05):
Lately.

Speaker 15 (32:06):
What's the news. Eighteen nineteen year olds are not going
to get the benefit to live with mom and dad, etcetera. Right,
everyone knows the story. So I always looking at the
National Party Facebook page today and I saw the wording,
and the wording is you're going to get those young
kids are going to get a thousand dollars. Now, it's
it's all in the language. They're not just going to

(32:28):
get a thousand dollars if they stay off the benefit
for a year, because they're not going to have the
benefits if they're in full employment. That the word is
full time employment. The full time is what's fifty two weeks,
So that means if they get knocked off their job
after that three month trial or say they've got they're
they're in a job for six months, they get they

(32:49):
get the boot or the job ins and then the
two weeks between finding another job. Well, that's not full
employment because they had two weeks off. They've got two
hors thirteen so they're not going to get that thousand.
All the wedding. It's a con job. It's a con job.
It's a con They won't be paying thousand dollars in body.

Speaker 3 (33:07):
So it's done for optics to make it look good. Right,
and people go, oh, that's a good idea. The governments
and charge they're incentivizing.

Speaker 15 (33:13):
People to get off flighting just more gaess, fighting with
the young kids, getty much fail discussing, well, the.

Speaker 3 (33:24):
Election next year and there's more what I mean that. Look,
I don't even know about the speculation of the leadership.
I don't even know if that proves anything. Yeah, it's
a it feels like uncharted territory for me.

Speaker 15 (33:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (33:39):
And because in New Zealand, when you lose the room,
you lose the room. There's no coming back, you know.
I think he's in his team quite quickly. When they
suddenly they think suddenly, when they stop having faith in someone.

Speaker 15 (33:50):
Well they do. They tunes very quickly, labels and by
themselves and they're out on their ear. Three and the
di Vivers. That's what's going to happen, and hopefully maybe
the left will have their act together. I just don't
have that much of because I thought they were quite
dismal last time round. Even though I'm a left wing greater,

(34:11):
I don't think they've got the cattle. I don't see leadership.

Speaker 3 (34:17):
Division and probably and I can't see anyone who's on
the front beaches of the National Party that's going to
jump in there and show great leadership.

Speaker 15 (34:29):
No what a Chebecca obviyist. Really is it what we want?

Speaker 3 (34:34):
That's my take. Yeah, I just don't think they're going
to have that have that leader. I think they're either
not got the popular popularity of the party or they
haven't got the just the just the shuts bar to
do it. That's my take. Good on you, Murray, thank
you for that, Dave, Marcus, welcome Marcus.

Speaker 9 (34:52):
How are you good?

Speaker 17 (34:54):
Marcus?

Speaker 12 (34:55):
You know we can't just say national because it is
a coalition dictated to well by m MP.

Speaker 3 (35:04):
I always hang on, Dave, it is a coalition dictated
by MMP. But also it's the coalition terms that Luxon
agreed to. Wasn't he negotiated those deals?

Speaker 14 (35:16):
Well?

Speaker 12 (35:17):
Yes, because it topped that to get the numbers to
get into Parliament to government.

Speaker 3 (35:23):
But most would say Luxon conceded far too much power
for the potentia to vote those other parts, you know,
for a party they got six and seven percent, they
got a lot of they, I mean, god, they got
Deputy prime ministership for goodness sake to share.

Speaker 12 (35:38):
Yes, but there was pardon parcel of having New Zealand
first and Winston Peters. Now, I'll just say this that
the opposition at the moment with Chippy and Co. Doesn't
begg his belief that it doesn't. In my opinion, it
doesn't warrant even thinking about I think the devil we

(36:01):
know as well as what we can get, because we'd
go down a real slippy slope if we went with
the Greens to Patty Mary and Labor.

Speaker 17 (36:09):
God help us.

Speaker 3 (36:12):
Well, how are we going at the moment with what
we've got, Dave.

Speaker 12 (36:15):
Mate, We're going as good as what we can mate.
So I believe we were put into a situation.

Speaker 3 (36:22):
Yes, So it just sounds like it just sounds like
rhetoric for me. You know it's going I'm going to
move on, Dave. I just yeah, I just got in
the on the mood for sort of for sort of
what am I not in the mood for? Sort of sloganeering,
I suppose because suddenly, when when it just the discussion
just gets kind of bitter and psychical really quickly. That's

(36:46):
my take on it. And I've noticed that we'll talk back.
If suddenly started people going about politics, it suddenly becomes
really yeah, it becomes what are the words I'm looking for? Unsatisfying,
I guess is what I need to say. Oh at eighty,
he said her nine two nine to text, looking forward

(37:08):
to your call. So if you do want to come through,
get to the texts now hear what we've got. Let
me tell you. Someone wants to go on about bacon,
which is interesting. Someone's referred to a text they've sent
me yesterday or during the afternoon, which I didn't get.
Did you get my text here about New Zealand bacon?

(37:32):
Marcus recently brought some bacon labeled New Zealand original proper bacon.
On the back was stated made in New Zealand with
pork from throughout Europe. What's the deal here in New Zealand?
Pork or not? Very complicated? There was always an attempt
to make food labeling laws more rigid, and I don't

(37:53):
think we've achieved that. And what I understand is most
producers try and cover all bases because from time to
time the products they've got differ. So for a while
they might get locally made pork and for other times
they might get overseas pork. So just have one label
that covers all of that. I think it's the same

(38:15):
with vegetables and frozen vegetables. It's always from overseas and local,
so you really don't know. You've got no idea. You've
got no idea if your baked beans are coming from
Slovenia or New Zealand. You've got no idea if your
tinned berries are coming from Argentina or South Africa. And
I think people have a right to know. But yeah,

(38:36):
when it comes to pork, and people be thinking that
coming into Christmas with all their hams, most of New
Zealand's pork or pork baked product, pork based products where
that been hams or whatever do seem to come from
the Northern Hemisphere and Scandinavian countries. So yeah, just so

(39:01):
you know, I think very little of it is locally made.
I mean, it might be smoked and processed locally, but
most of it's come from overseas, and that's because of
conditions and labor costs. I would think fried bacon very nice,

(39:22):
and a sandwich with bacon, thank you. My mother taught
me to look out the window before answering the door
to anyone, but never answered the door to the mooney.
She said they kidnapped kids to get more members, and
they didn't worship God, but a man who wanted to
be God. Marcus that five oh one to Porty from
lower Heart to sound like a nice chap. What crime
and he committed? Do I have to explain it? I

(39:44):
think he was saying that he was from the postcode
five oh one, so it was humor. It was probably
quite humorous in light of it. But yeah, wish they
didn't call them five ones. Every time I think of
the genes and I'm thinking about the postcodes. Anyway, do
get in touch with talking bacon, strange advice your parents
gave you, and the monster trucks or anything else you

(40:08):
want to have gone about tonight, feel free to come through
with oh, eight hundred eighty ten eighty and nine two
nine to to text be good to hear for if
you want to talk, looking forward to what You've got
to say? The Breakers ninety two seventy nine, six minutes
of the fourth I think this will be their first
victory of the year. But I got to say I

(40:28):
kind of lost my love of the Breakers. I was
never a super fan, but the ownership and everything got
too confusing for me. I never quite knew who we're
backing when we back I mean, for a while it
was owned by the people that owned the supermarket. They
seem to be legitimately good people, but now I've got
no idea who owned it or what they're trying to do.
So yeah, I feel I feel when it comes to
his inn clubs, ownership and things are important, and if

(40:52):
that story gets blurred, it's harder for the fans to
embrace it, particularly if they're not winning. But lines free
if you want to talk eleven past nine, the numbers, oh,
eight hundred eighty ten, eighty nine two nine, tow to text,
looking forward to what You've got to say? Anything else
you want, I meant jump in there head on midnight. Also,
Graham Bell has died. If you want to mention him,

(41:12):
he was you might have been on Police ten to seven.
He was very much of the form of let's lock
these buggers up, let's get the mean people off the street.
One of those tough, tough, no nonsense sort of a people.
I think he probably worked pretty well as far as
the presentation of the show went very well. Until it didn't.

(41:34):
I would say, I guess that's what I want to
give you there thirteen past nine, if you want to
be a part of it, and questionable advice from your
parents will advice. It seemed fine at the time. You
look back through the prism of time, you think, hang
about that is sketchy. Oh eight hundred and eighty ten
eighty and nine to text Marcus, I know what you're saying.

(41:58):
The conversation becomes quite negative. Whatever side of the little
spectrum we sit on. There are other segments for that
on news Talk ZB. Oh yeah, just's gonna be a
hard listen. Gold top seven ounce or two twenty five
o gram. Yes, I went to see my gold miner
mate today. He always first thing, he always says, oh

(42:19):
gold seven thousand dollars, he's getting his dredge ready, so yep.
Thing about gold mining, Hope Springs eternal Marcus. My mother said,
don't eat that, it's poisoned. Finally I choked on break
and Ryan and Mum should have said you may choke
on that being poison John, it's Marcus.

Speaker 16 (42:38):
Welcome, good evening, Hi Marcus. Two nights in a row.
This is becoming a habit. I must stop.

Speaker 3 (42:50):
Yeah, what do you want to say, John?

Speaker 16 (42:54):
I want to say that first haul bacon is not meat,
isn't it. I saw I saw that as a slogan
on a back of a car one day and used me.
But the advice, getting back to the advice your parents
gave you, The only advice I ever got from my

(43:15):
parents was go and ask your father. I'll leave it
at that market.

Speaker 3 (43:25):
What was the What was the point of that? Because
your mother didn't want to didn't want the difficult conversations,
or because your father was wiser Oh god.

Speaker 16 (43:34):
Knows, it was passing the back. Yeah no, But look,
when I was growing up, you just got on with it.
You didn't ask people for advice. You accepted your.

Speaker 3 (43:47):
Lot, a lot. I'm not saying. I'm saying advice that
parents gave you unprompted, Like if ever someone tries to
accost you eat grass. I mean, that's pretty out there,
isn't it.

Speaker 16 (43:58):
Oh yeah, yeah, that's that's weird.

Speaker 3 (44:00):
Yeah that was that was the That was the vain
we're trying to mind tonight, John. So yeah, but I'm
not saying people asking for advice. My mother used to say,
if you're not in bed by ten o'clock, come home.
Years later, I realized just how dodgy that was. I
don't really fully understand that, Marcus is the purpose of

(44:21):
that five oh one caller that we now call lower
Hut five oh one. I always thought the weird thing
was I thought area codes were four digits. Oh yes,
it's five oh one zero, five oh one one, five
oh one two, five oh one three, five oh one
four and five oh one nine. I don't know what

(44:43):
the landline numbers are. Are they similar to the eric postcodes.
I don't even know why we've got postcodes. I don't
even know there's some computer at the post office can
read them. It's just free hard. When you've got to
any parcel set, you got to actually look up your
area code every time. My memory is not that great.
Fifteen past nine, if you want to come through breakers
score three minutes left they've won this. They're twenty ahead,

(45:05):
one hundred and four eighty four, one hundred and four
eighty four. I'm still looking at Lotto. I don't think
of the souper. I don't think the powerball's gone. No one,
no one, no one, no one, no one won first
Division powerboll, Loto or strike tonight. Wrong numbers, too many

(45:27):
primes again touch you want to talk here til telve
o'clock the numbers, oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty.
If you want to text nine to nine to one,
email Marcus at newstalk ZB dot co dot nz. Beautiful.
By the way, the Airport Report the Airport the airports
of the year are out Best Airport, Queenstown Airport, Best
large airport, Best medium airport. To need an airport, Best

(45:52):
small airport, north Shore Airport? What is north Shore Airport?
I don't even know there was when that's a small
airport list than two one thousand passengers? What is that
north Shore Airport? I don't think there was one. And
by the way, to need an airport? Goodness, have you
been hooded through that? It's a shocking kind of a place.

(46:14):
You feel your chick and it's all got a low roof,
and they heard you to some small room once you've
been through the check. It's a terrible airport. I don't
know what my favorite one would be. Always thought New
Plymouth Airport was pretty good. It might be five or
six year since i've been there. North I think I
actually have been at North taken off from North through Airport.
I didn't realize you could be a passenger place. Who's

(46:35):
caught a passenger flight from North Shore Airport. That's of
interest and parental advice and everything else we're doing on
tonight and and and and and and and Yeah, but
let's not poke. The Tiger Lower Hut postal code is
five oh one oh, not five oh one Marcus. It's

(47:00):
the Wana hear my parents used to say. Assume all
drivers are insane. It's not bad. It's Johnny from Lower Hut.
Lower Hut. People exist. You can't erase us through postcode genocide.
Don't eat pork, it's one of the no nos. Apparently
it's duty not having clovern hoop for something. Apparently you
are what you eat. I'm hungry. God, there's some real
getting some real film. Loom texts through eighteen past nine.

(47:23):
If you want to talk here till twelve. I'm get
in touch. You want to be a part of it?
Oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty really sketchy advice
your parents gave you. That's what I want. Like staffing
geepers chief is that doesn't stand the test of time.
So you might have one of those stories. Good, be
nice to hear from you. Anything else you want to

(47:43):
mention to end the monster trucks. Gosh, it's different from
last night. Always talk about letters. Enjoyed that immensely about post. Oh,
now it's Amazon October Prime Day. I don't know about
that because we're gonna have another thing coming sooner and
we Black Friday. But no one understands what it's about
when you buy stuff online. I think it's no longer

(48:05):
a thing, is it. I think we've kind of jumped
the shark with that one. At the end of November. Anyway,
welcome people. Hurdle twelve nineteen past nine. Break is about
to wind that we're beating in the Warrior that have
lost both the games. We've lost four of ours. This
will be our first victory, but we've beaten one of
the easy beats. At twenty one past nine. Grant, it's Marcus.

Speaker 9 (48:25):
Welcome, William Machas. How's the day, Pirate out of the woods?

Speaker 3 (48:29):
Yeah good, real good, thanks Grant. Yeah beautiful.

Speaker 9 (48:31):
I loved I loved in queens Down for five years.
Oh God, come back to the big smoke.

Speaker 3 (48:38):
What made your airporters? If you can.

Speaker 9 (48:43):
Yeah, it's Postman's Road, Dairy Flat. It's a little small aircraft.

Speaker 3 (48:48):
Airport, but it's an airport.

Speaker 9 (48:51):
It's a it's a it's like it's a well, it's
an era of drome but it's well.

Speaker 3 (48:56):
It's the only award for best. You must be able
to get passenger flights from there? Can you?

Speaker 18 (49:01):
I think you can.

Speaker 9 (49:02):
My dad was a pile of up the ease to fly,
a one eight five obsession of hurricane skydivers and we
used to get taken up there. We used to get
taken up there as kids and we hated it. But
those days you had to do as you're told. Day.

Speaker 3 (49:16):
There must be something like you can fly to Barrier
or for Tianga or something from there. It must be
one of those ear lines that's doing that.

Speaker 9 (49:26):
It's been here a long, long, long long time since
I was a kid. Okay, but I think they I'm
not quite sure about the barrier flights. Technology has gone
so far, and maybe they do. I know they still
do the little flights from walking airport to the barrier.
It's not but not as much, but not as much.

Speaker 3 (49:49):
It's not far from the Northern Motorway right.

Speaker 9 (49:54):
Yeah, you come off, come off at risk Kate. But
you're going to turn off at to Helen's Rule or
you can. Well they made a big expressway so you
don't have to come up, but the hell with that.
That's that's the old road. Just carry on going straight.
You come through crimew and then just up just before
Cremu there's a road on on the right, Postman's Road.

(50:18):
You go down there about two three k's and create
the airports on the right on the right.

Speaker 3 (51:43):
And is it like is it like to hit a spot,
You've got to be accuracy. So is it like accuracy?

Speaker 9 (51:51):
Yep, yep.

Speaker 19 (51:52):
And it's surprising the side of the air aircraft that
can land here. They have like skymasters can lain here
at north To Aerodrome.

Speaker 3 (52:04):
And if it's been voted the best small uminal is
there like seats and cafe and stuff?

Speaker 19 (52:10):
Uh well it's yes. There there was a little little
club room and they have coffee in that. Yeah. People
don't realize just how big these were, how important because
a lot of the helicopters here in New Zealand are

(52:30):
a service in tistas here in North Shore.

Speaker 3 (52:34):
Oh yes, I think that's why Allie Williams did that
because that's where they were getting their helicopter from. But
they needed to get there yep, their own helipad. Yes, yes, so, yes,
you just happen to live across the road. You're not
involved in aviation.

Speaker 19 (52:51):
No, not No, I just happened a little bit rod
across the road from it.

Speaker 3 (52:55):
How many planes would take off a day?

Speaker 19 (52:58):
Oh to a great barrier? I'd say about ten or
twelve flights to day.

Speaker 3 (53:03):
Is it is it under air traffic control?

Speaker 7 (53:06):
Oh?

Speaker 17 (53:06):
Yes, yes, yes.

Speaker 3 (53:08):
Is there a tower.

Speaker 19 (53:10):
We've got a room. It's the aircraft has a room
up and above the log of greenstean type of thing.
Oh yeah, it's for you know, it's pretty up to date.

Speaker 3 (53:30):
Okay for interesting seven.

Speaker 10 (53:32):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (53:34):
There you go, Marcus. My biggest secret, I've lived in
Orkland for thirty years, but most of my pin numbers
are and have been, the postal code for my hometown
in Hawk's Bay, which has had two postal codes. So
I left in the nineties. I'm sure it's very common
for Peo to their postal code. I do understand postal codes. Hi, Marcus.

(53:54):
There are three hundred people driving on our roads who
may or not may have the ability to do so.
They paid VT indeed to pass their practical with a bribe.
Licenses should be suspended and reset at their own ext be.
I think that's what's happening. I do have to resit them,
which is yeah, I don't know if they're doing rowing.
I think they're probably doing warrants as well, were they?

(54:16):
Because yeah, that was sketchy. I don't know what it
would be the biggest danger people that can't drive, or
cars that shouldn't be on their road, Marcus. North Shore
Airport is great. Have flown to Great Barrier from there,
would get an incredible amount of traffic off the roads
if we had a bigger airport on the shore and
flyers didn't need to travel over the bridge. Settle down, people.

(54:42):
Nelson Airport is the bomb, easy excess, great views, great town,
Davy Marcus, welcome, well.

Speaker 20 (54:51):
Hey, Marcus. Just ent on the North Shore Aerodrome. I
learned to fly there on a young fire and it's
an actual aerodrome, not in the airport. Airports by definition
have to meet international standards, which includes various things logo

(55:16):
for you occupied terminal.

Speaker 3 (55:21):
Yeah, because it's just they've just had the airport of
the air Award and it's got the award for best
Small Airport.

Speaker 20 (55:28):
Yeah, well it's an incorrect terminology then, okay, because it
doesn't it doesn't meet the criteria for being an airport.
It meets the criteria for an aerodrome. Aerodromes are any
location that is certified for aerial activity, whether it be
a microod or aeroplane, whatever it does.

Speaker 21 (55:49):
Say.

Speaker 3 (55:49):
Anton Raminsky, the senior brand and marketing manager at the airport,
was delighted. Our team at north Shore Airport works hard
every day to make a difference and put our airport
on the map. So he's calling in an airport, but
he's wrong.

Speaker 20 (56:02):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, well they're they're wrong. It meets an
international standard to be called an airport anywhere in the world,
and it has to have a fully manned control tower,
which it doesn't have as part of that. They may
have some since since I was last there, they may

(56:28):
have some air service up there, but it's by no
means meet the criteria that terminology.

Speaker 3 (56:36):
Thanks tab Marcus, Can we please get the lower lower
heart postcode man back on the radio. It was the
helight of his high of the night, cheeryad. I thought
it was good. In hindsight, I was taken back, but
I think it was good. I've decided that that's my
that's my thing. There we're talking about bad advice, bad
advice appearance gave you and north Through Airport, well north
Shore inverted Commas airport. What's that last guy called everyoneing?

(57:01):
Is an airport? Apart from how ay well cheapers? Another
piece of advice someone said. Parents said, if you getting followed,
go to a roundabout and keep doing circles until they
stopped following you. It's not bad, is it? Davy Marcus?
Growing up, my mum used to say, son, be careful

(57:21):
dating a moldy girl. She might be related for good.
See what I did there? If they're going to go
somewhere into dodgy territory, didn't you anyway? Oh wait? One
hundred eighty Taddy nine detext monster tracts printal advice and
is it an airport? I'm still not convinced he's a
I'm not convinced the air traffic control. How would it

(57:42):
pay for itself? I flew from there with a guy
that used to do a IT spot on the radio show.
I was doing here his plane license, and we went
up north to look at the droughts, and we flew
from there, and yes, it did look like they were

(58:04):
d trying to think what year it would be. It
might have been twenty a seven or something, and that
is my experience of I'm looking at what osbor is.
What it's called Postman Road. It's a big thing to
name a whole road after a postman. It must have
been quite some postman. It's been like the world's greatest
post Oh yeah, there does seem to be an air
traffic control type up up upstairy things any twenty seven

(58:29):
to ten if you want to be a part of it.
North Shore Airport, New Zealand's best small airport, so they
would have go into that one. It's Stuart Island. It's
a ripper dB. This is Marcus.

Speaker 17 (58:40):
Welcome be the paperwork for nort Shore Eerodrome.

Speaker 3 (58:47):
So you're there, you're an ERA your you're on the
aerodrome school, not the airport school.

Speaker 17 (58:53):
It's well, I think it's I think it's an aerodrome.

Speaker 3 (58:58):
Yeah, I think it's an aerodrome.

Speaker 17 (59:01):
CIA classifies as an aerodrome. Is it doesn't have the
air traffic control it's oh had the Wooden Front of
men of Forgod looks. I used to do this sort
of stuff. It's an uncontrolled eerodrome, so all the aircraft
provide their own space scenes and talk to each other,

(59:22):
not to anybody else. There are some commercial operators on
the site, which is the one that obviously walked to
great area. What else would you like to know about
the place?

Speaker 3 (59:37):
I'd like to know dB. If you're in a flight
to Australia in a seven four seven right, and the
had a heart attack and they said, is there any
on the plane that can fly? Could you lend it?

Speaker 17 (59:47):
I'd probably kill everybody on board, but you'd give it
a go. But I would give it a go and
the checkers. You don't do it for the pilot's seat.
You do it from the You do it from the
first officer's seat, and you don't touch any of the
physical controls. You do it all with diming in via
the autopilot. So a seven four seven or Wednesday, the

(01:00:13):
seven six seven has full auto land as part of
the autopilot. All you have to do is get it
to the right place. It will do the rest for you.

Speaker 3 (01:00:23):
What's the right place.

Speaker 17 (01:00:28):
Ten miles out three thousand feet on the glide slope
at the ride speed with the wheels down and most
of the flap.

Speaker 3 (01:00:38):
Could they bring the wheels down from ground control and
the flap, So you've got to do that.

Speaker 17 (01:00:43):
Now you've got to do that from inside. So all
you've got is going to try and so.

Speaker 3 (01:00:50):
All you've got to do is get in that right
spot with the wheels down and the flaps down.

Speaker 17 (01:00:54):
You've got to get the aircraft configured for landing. The
autopilot has auto throttle, so it will give you the
right speed as long as you dial it into the
autosottle buttons. It will hold the guide slope and if
it's a Class three auto landing system, it will put
it on the ground and stop it without you touching

(01:01:15):
any of the yoke bits. So you could do it technically, Yes,
would you get the shakes? I think I'd be sweating
a little bit.

Speaker 3 (01:01:29):
Yes, because I think that's the great thing is that
half Americans think they could land a plane if they
were if there was a disaster. But actually they say
that people that don't know overrate their ability because they
don't know what's required.

Speaker 17 (01:01:46):
They have taken people like me with private pilot's licenses
stuck them in the seminator and almost without failed the crashed.
One of them didn't even know how to operate the
pilot's seat to get into the right position. Another one first,
and theated was tend off for the autopilot, which were
praying crash. Whereas my scenes is I attached nothing except

(01:02:14):
the part that's fully automated to make the aircraft. Why
without my input do you reckon?

Speaker 22 (01:02:21):
I go, yeah, I reckon?

Speaker 3 (01:02:25):
You could?

Speaker 17 (01:02:27):
You know what, as long as you've been exposed to
all the buttons for some time, because when they say
set the heading for three five zero degree, you have
to know which battle till twill to make the aircraft
do that. Then they'll go, you know, descend and hold
six thousand feet. That's another seat of buttons.

Speaker 3 (01:02:48):
So could could could air traffic Control explain where the
buttons are?

Speaker 21 (01:02:53):
They?

Speaker 3 (01:02:53):
A texture?

Speaker 17 (01:02:55):
No, Because he's he's trying to control aircraft, he has
a lot of them. They have no idea where everything
is in a seven see.

Speaker 3 (01:03:06):
But I presume I presume they'd get a pilot to
the airport that from the airline that would tell you
what to do, wouldn't they. Let's say you've got two
let's say you've got two hours to get there, and
there'd be someone there. They'll be saying do this and
do that. Then you could do it.

Speaker 17 (01:03:21):
Yeah, and then get a line training pilot and you
see the third button left on a right hand on
that side, pour up from that thing and you go
what And by that stage they go put your head
between your legs and kiss something because well.

Speaker 3 (01:03:39):
The thing is too that. There's probably other people banging
on the door because they realized they could probably do
it better because you're because their life is in your hands,
isn't it. So they'd be So there'd be other people saying,
how give me a go. I don't think you're up
for it. I'm better at this, and they would be
people that would overrate their ability.

Speaker 17 (01:03:55):
Well, my number my number two son could do it
because that's what he does for a living.

Speaker 3 (01:03:58):
Yeah, exactly, but not you.

Speaker 16 (01:04:01):
Not me.

Speaker 17 (01:04:02):
I gave up with Cessna's and there was danger for my.

Speaker 3 (01:04:07):
Life normally, okay, dB, thinking I might try it and
a simulator. Could you land a plane if you were
called to? He that's the other question for tonight. We'll
throw everything at you. And is the north through aerod
Aerodroman Airport not according to dB not according to Davy.
I don't know what. I don't know what to say now.

(01:04:28):
I don't know if I'm on the airport side or
the aerodrome side. And what about the five O ones there?
Eh and lower hut get in touch Hittle twelve twenty
one away from ten beautiful Marcus. My phone number back
of the day in Mangoe Bridge was O nine six

(01:04:48):
three six five oh one. Every time I hear five
oh one, all I can think was my old black
cat that used to live with being. Oh, it's a
nice story. I asked my mother what it meant at
the beginning of a movie viewer discretion advised. She told
me it meant you don't tell anyone you watched it.
My son threw a great barrier last week for the
North t Were Airport four seater. The guy who checked

(01:05:09):
him and was the pilot. He got to sit beside
an amazing experience. There are airports at Helensville, Kyplra Flat
and spring Hill. I went skydiving from one that I
think was at I think it was at Parachai, which
is KUYPERA kind of reversed, isn't it?

Speaker 16 (01:05:28):
So?

Speaker 3 (01:05:29):
Who thinks they could land a plane, because I think
I think half of American men think they can land
a plane. I don't know what percentage actually can, because
how would you get that going. Yes, fifty percent of
American women and fifty percent of American men and twenty
percent of American women think they could land a plane,

(01:05:50):
if a big plane, if the driver died from a
bad meal. But I imagine the number is minuscule. I
don't know how often it happens. I just speak it
probably never happens because normally if they're gone, normally they
locked the cabin door. Don't They're going to bring it
down themselves. You can't get in William, Good evening.

Speaker 23 (01:06:16):
H I'm marcis.

Speaker 9 (01:06:16):
How are you good?

Speaker 3 (01:06:17):
Thank you, William.

Speaker 23 (01:06:21):
It's interesting to listen to you talk about this because
as I'm sitting here listening to you, I'm flying up
the coast from San Diego, and I've got a flight
formulator set up at home, or a seven three seven, yes,
and the program called Microsoft Like Simulator, and it's pretty

(01:06:41):
pretty jolly accurate. They have training missions and all this
kind of things and things you have to achieve, and
you can actually part of my setup. I've got the
yoke here and above my keyboard, I've got a panel
that is exact replica of a autopilot panel and a
seven three seven. And once once you go through your training,

(01:07:04):
the like the gentleman said before, there's very little that
you actually do on the flight yoke like that. You know,
there's no pulling and twisting it. It's all just setting
up the buttons and the screens of the set in
front of you. So after this program, I kind of
feel like I could land a seven three seven, but
I certainly would probably need that communication with the headset

(01:07:27):
on talking to the to the instructor at the other end.

Speaker 9 (01:07:29):
You know.

Speaker 3 (01:07:30):
So even if even though you have readepted your flight simulator,
you still couldn't land, could you. I mean, you can
obviously land your simulator, right, Yes. What difference would a plane.

Speaker 23 (01:07:41):
Be, I will just say I think one of the
main things would be confidence and just your nerves. Yeah,
because of the weight of responsibility. So like a like
a normal seven three seven or whatever airline, and there'd
be two pilots and the reason for that is one
trouble checking the other course. So you know, if I

(01:08:04):
was flying it myself, the people on the headset instructing
it would be like your first officer, just double checking everything.

Speaker 9 (01:08:12):
You know.

Speaker 3 (01:08:13):
I wonder if you put one of your mates in there,
if you could talk them through a far and get
them to land it probably.

Speaker 23 (01:08:18):
Not right, Yeah, possibly if they had the same simulator
set up. There does have multiplayer mode in this program,
and I have. I've got a mate in Australia whopply
seven three sevens, and we'll take them from the same
airport and we'll fight out the coast and land and

(01:08:39):
San Francisco or somewhere, and he'll he'll be following me
and he'll land behind me, and we'll both be communicating
and talking, and I'll be able to see him on
the screen. He'll be able to see me, you know.
It's it's pretty clever stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:08:53):
Do you crash off and William Well?

Speaker 23 (01:08:56):
I used to do, and I still occasionally do, because
it's it's well, I had the Subby for many years
and it's just you're just continuously learning and you're just
continually trying to improve, and that's that's the longevity. You
It's not like a normal computer game. It's like an

(01:09:17):
educational program. So even though I've had it for years
and been doing it for years. I'm still learning, you know,
still trying to improve. And if you do training and
watched the tour to Ttorials, well.

Speaker 3 (01:09:28):
You if you were flying, would you trust an older
pilot over a younger pilot after what you've just said?

Speaker 23 (01:09:34):
And yeah, I think you think you probably would. That's
just natural, you know, it's one of those it's it's
one of those things that you know, a bit of
a bit of gray here means experience, you know, situations.

Speaker 3 (01:09:49):
As long as I've been a dodgy heart. Nice to talk, William,
Thank you. Thirteen to ten? So could you land the plane?
Could you land the plane? If you're called up on?
Half Americans think they called. Twenty percent of women think
they called in America, Hi, Marc. I used to work
in an aircraft factory at the Hambleton Airport. Several of
the staff had private pilot licenses. They were given to

(01:10:09):
go on a seven I think a seven four seven simulator.
It was a while ago, but my recollection is that
none of them got it on the runway, let alone
landed it. One in Alaska one and seven adults have
a private pilot license. Wow, Wow, I flied gliders. I
reckon I could land a powered craft. That's from Frank.

(01:10:31):
Wonder how many of those Americans thought that the that
saved for those people a landing on the Hudson was
actually in the wrong because of what the simulator said.
I don't know what that means. It has never happened
where both flight crew have become incapacitated. It's one of
the reasons flight crew a lot allowed to eat the
same meal. The error, however, been many cases of losing
one flight dick member. That's why there's two good a mark.

(01:10:57):
I'm a official pilot, and I can safely say that
if anyone thinks they could land a commercial aircraft by
pushing a few buttons, they either have a laugh or
slightly delusional. I'm afraid to bit. What if I dropped dead?
If anyone could come and finish this talk back show,
know what buttons to push? Know the things to say?
What if they could do that? We had crash it

(01:11:18):
before the ten news probably so back to that text,
Evening Marcus. I got my private parlt license at north
Shore Airfield back in ninety four. It was called either
an aerodrome or airfield on airport, which tends to know
a port a place of commiscial ops. It may have
changed recently, especially as Grape Barrier Airlines operates from there.

(01:11:38):
I learned to fly CIST the one fifties two, and
later year I bought and flew my Only Yact fifty
to a Russian military training aircraft flying formation aerobatics with
his Only Yact team who before by by by any
early at the International Warbirds over one Acre show at
Easter to enjoy your show, regards Jim Hickey. Nice to
hear from his Jim, thanks for that. We are talking

(01:12:00):
about could you land a plane if the pilots died
they called you up, would you give it a go?
I mean, I suppose the other question, right, would you
give it a go? Because unfortunately the people that probably
think they would be the best would be the worst
people to land it because I think you need some
clues to know how difficult it was. That's my inference

(01:12:22):
on that one. So yeah, look, let's hope you're never
in that situation. Imagine you never will be. And if
you've got to plan, if you've got to flight with
four hundred people on it, probably one of the people
that's a passengers a trained pilot anyway, flying back from
a furlough or a layover. That's why I would hope.

(01:12:45):
But yes, the professional pilots say would be impossible. So
if you want to talk about that, we are talking
about could you land a plane? I think there's much
discussion on podcasts what they do on podcasts. There's people
sit around to disus where they could land a plane
or not. It's probably quite a fun discussion. Here'll twelve
if you want to be a part of it. Eight

(01:13:05):
hundred eighty. Teddy had nine two ninety six one of
as Marcus also to advice from parents, like terrible stuff
that you look back. I think Jeep as crepus, that's
not very good. Lotto hasn't gone m oh now. I
think Teddy swims win here on last night? It must

(01:13:26):
have been how many songs he got? Is it more
than three? I saw you rally did a a c
DC song, but he was at horn Castle. Must have
been last night? Oh no, Wolfbrook sparkering it tomorrow. Not

(01:13:46):
just a singer, a storyteller, a show man. Yeah, wow,
I was two and here before is here in twenty
twenty four. I didn't realize that well that was last year,
so people raved about that. So yes, a spark tomorrow.
The reviewer says, if you're going to see Teddy Swims
talk on Thursday, you're in for an incredible night. And

(01:14:07):
if you're not, you should be. Well, that's analysts done
that she's one of the heavy hitters. It must be
a super fan because she's Crime and Justice. Wow, that's
a pivot cheapness, very much, Crime and Justice get in
touch you on a talk Hittle twelve Lending Planes, Marcus,

(01:14:31):
I've played flight flight simuli for years on my computer.
I went up on a small trainer Plaid a few
years back, and the pilot told me after we landed
that what I had learned with a flight simulator he
could have me going solo within ten hours. Wow. That's
a good thing to say, isn't it. May you feel good?
Never felt compelled to fly. Most kids who play video

(01:14:54):
games probably think they're able to flight land and aircraft also, Yeah,
I think they probably would, although Eggshell wouldn't be surprised
if they could. They're pretty good with those hand controls.
Is I think I'd go oh anyone over g anyone
over avocados. Yet, men, they're even a dollar eachion in
v cargo. They are famously cheap at the moment, frighteningly cheap.

(01:15:21):
You haven't We might have some advocata discussion how much
guacamole can you eat? They taste better when they're a
bit price here, aren't they feel you got to eat
as many of them? Ten O seven seven past ten.
We're in a consultant came to radio, wants to tell
us to do the weather like that, double time check.

(01:15:44):
Ten O seven seven past ten. Stuck with me for
thirty years that TENO seven seven past ten, Here to midnight.
My name is Marcus. Welcome. Could you land a plane?
Could you? Would you? Would you? Phillip's Marcus, Hello, good evening,
Good thanks Bill.

Speaker 21 (01:16:05):
So yeah, I'm a similar instrucker on the cemetery, been
flying as the drafts. Got to find either and we
sometimes open the similar up to the public and get
the end to go. And it's interesting, you know what
capability somebody that just walks off the street does have
sort of and hip and coordination, Wife Betu. Some of

(01:16:29):
the younger people and actually females are very make three
good pilots and really good ni coordination, very good hamphasis
a lot of the guys are pretty aircraft and they
tend to travel around a lot. But I guess if
you're talking about trying to lend a jet airliner, I
mean you've got sixty tons of aircraft there. And what

(01:16:53):
a lot of people tend to do is they tend
to over over control and overcorrect and they tend to
oscillate the aircraft. And so it's been proven that if
they can actually understand and work the radio and get
instructor talking to them, and the instructor can actually give
them to set the aircraft a water land and that's

(01:17:13):
probably about the safest way to do it. Somebody that
hasn't got to be flying experience still trying to hand
land an airliner probably wouldn't be well.

Speaker 3 (01:17:24):
So it's free subtle the whole control, is it? Sorry game,
it's free subtle, the whole controlling.

Speaker 21 (01:17:33):
No.

Speaker 7 (01:17:33):
I mean, you can.

Speaker 21 (01:17:34):
Control it, and the thing is it will go where
you wanted to go. But somebody that hasn't had any
flying experience before, or has someone of that flying experience,
you know, say somebody who's flown a light aircraft and
you put them in a girline, that sixty times they're
going to struggle with it. It's they're not going to
you know, some going to be a smooth ride. It

(01:17:56):
takes a while of a training that you get used
to a large aircraft.

Speaker 17 (01:18:02):
How much improved, how.

Speaker 3 (01:18:04):
Much trailing to the pilot spin on the sabby later.

Speaker 15 (01:18:08):
A lot?

Speaker 21 (01:18:09):
Obviously it's a lot cheaper to run a simulator than
said she even to fly the real aircraft. The simulators
that the New Zealand have got, for instance, they've got
a lot of cause zero time flight simulators and they're
so good. In the three excess movement, you could actually
get a raking to fly the aircraft by just using

(01:18:29):
the simulator instead. So yeah, the simulators that have improved
over the years the stage where they're just as you
just feel as you're flying the aircraft.

Speaker 3 (01:18:42):
And the old days people to always do it on
the job would they well a.

Speaker 21 (01:18:47):
Little bit so because of the fidelity of the simulators
wasn't as good. But what they just wanted to do
a lot of they used to have what we used
to form cardboardnock ups and you used to just use
it as a procedural tank trainer and actually a point
to the switches as you were going through the procedure

(01:19:09):
of doing pre flight checks or landing checks or whatever.
And obviously as we've got the simulators actually improving, and
also the computer based training is improving, those paper based
training is sort of goneto the onto the packers where
it's not used as much.

Speaker 3 (01:19:31):
Some of those are so good. Can you imagine there
getting any better? I mean, the kind of it's it's
kind of as far as it's gone now, has it.

Speaker 16 (01:19:39):
I don't.

Speaker 21 (01:19:40):
I think there's always room for improvement. I think, you know,
aleast when I started flying simulators, you know, the the
train and everything was very much a block situation. And
you're looking at now and you're eventually you know, the
simulators now when you're landing in Willington, you can actually
see the dip in the runway, and you know, the

(01:20:01):
fidelity is really really good. But you can still you
still can tell at the moment even the visual facility
is good. You can still tell us it's a simulator.
And the improvements, you know, are pretty amazing compared to.

Speaker 9 (01:20:16):
What they used to be.

Speaker 3 (01:20:18):
So I bet the graphics packages takes a long time
to download.

Speaker 15 (01:20:22):
Well.

Speaker 21 (01:20:22):
The thing is, most of the commercial simulators you know,
they'll have a computer setup that just deals for the
visual package. I know, the Symmetric one that I fly
has five seat they used that just runs package, so

(01:20:43):
you know, it keeps the fidelity.

Speaker 3 (01:20:45):
Up there and I presume it models. It models all
the weather conditions as well. Doesn't you dial them up
for different different storms and things and different scenarios? Is
that right?

Speaker 21 (01:20:57):
Yeah, definitely, and weather as far as wind goes, obviously
you can have a lot of wind issues when you're
going and you're training somebody to fly into Linton or
Queenstown for instance. Yeah, so you can die up, you
can fly day and night, you know, obviously getting people
used to flying into an id airport with the runways

(01:21:19):
of visuals that you need to see. So yeah, they're
very very good.

Speaker 3 (01:21:23):
And for you to be an instructor and similar, does
that mean that you're also a pilot? Does that of interest?

Speaker 21 (01:21:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (01:21:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 21 (01:21:29):
Okay, Yeah, so you start flying Guidance twelve and you
just carry on.

Speaker 3 (01:21:35):
Yeah, okay, appreciate you coming through, Phil, Thanks for that.
We're talking about could you land a plane if you're
given the chance, if they called you, what would you
do at eight hundred and eighty ten eighty. It seems
that most people couldn't also too with all this just
a bit of a topic topic pivot here with the
unbelievable bounty of cheap avocados. What are you doing with them?

(01:22:02):
Because we've kind of craved them for a long time.
Then we've got all of them? What do you do
with them? I suppose people are saying you can freeze them?
Is that right? Because what tends to happen is they
all kind of sit around and they go brown, don't they.
But there's something else you might want to talk about
and really sketchy advice. Your parents gave you all the
stuff and more, you ought to be a part of it.

(01:22:25):
Eight hundred and eighty Teddy and nine two night. Keep
those texts coming through, two people. Someone's asked me why
we got told to do the weather like that. I'm
not quite sure. Nine five quarter to ten. I guess
it was just a I don't know for a while,
they're consultants to go around the world and teach you
how to do radio. But I think that just came

(01:22:45):
through and sort of repeated what the thing was at
the last place they had been seemed to be a
very easy wrought to make a living to be a
radio consultant. Also in the music brands, we' when I
torture to do the weather like that or the time
like that. But yeah, get in touch of you ought
to be a part of the show fifteen past ten.
Is there's something else you want toak about? To fevery

(01:23:07):
relaxed about all of it? Do come through? Oh eight
hundred and eighty ten eighty and nine two nine to text. Yes,
breakers have ignited this season with a victory of the
yellowall of Hawks. Yep, finally on the board. That's happening.

(01:23:33):
And avocados. Can you make an avocado smoothie? That would
be the thing? Yeah, get in touch Maxi's Marcus welcome.

Speaker 17 (01:23:54):
Talking about the avocados. So I'll just tip you off
and might be helpful for some people. They hit them
here up in ParaPara for twenty nine cents, so I thought,
you know, wow, this is a this is a bargain.
So I went through. I grabbed the ones that were
just going soft, you know, they're sort of turning quite black,

(01:24:17):
but just just a little bea b bit soft. I
grabbed thirty of them and threw them in the freezer.
Just didn't do anything for them, just straight into the
freezer and froze them. And since then I have taken
you know, when I want one, I take them out.
I would say, you know, I don't thaw them out
in the fridge. I just put them on the bench,

(01:24:39):
not in the sun. Just put them on the bench.
About four or five hours. Saw them out and I
find they're a little wee bit mushy, but they're not bad.
That they're good. You know, you put them on post
a bit of edge, you might ow where you go,
you know, and go.

Speaker 3 (01:24:56):
You see, twenty nine cents is cheap because I didn't
think that pata paduma would be even EVERCARTI Central. Do
you know where they're because I mentioned they've come down
from Totong or would that be right?

Speaker 17 (01:25:07):
Look, I've got no idea where they've been growing. At
the moment, I think they're fifty nine cents. They've gone
up a little bit. That was when they were extremely cheap,
so that's pack and safe. So I think they're fifty
nine cents at the moment. They're still pretty cheap. Might
grab another theory hadn't been you might.

Speaker 3 (01:25:26):
Need to grab a big, bigger freezer.

Speaker 17 (01:25:30):
Oh yeah, Well, I've got, I've sort of got a
small one and a bigger one, and I'm always juggling
around to find some space, you know, But no, you
can just freed some whole and and you know, like
you say, they little wee bit nushy, but I mean
they're they're they're nice, they're great. Even if they've been frozen,

(01:25:50):
it stops out at that price.

Speaker 3 (01:25:51):
It stops it going brown.

Speaker 17 (01:25:54):
Well, I I what I did was I I only
brought the brown ones.

Speaker 3 (01:25:58):
Okay, I brought the brown ones.

Speaker 17 (01:26:02):
Yeah that I got them there where they're just you know,
they're really to eat. They're just going soft, you know. Yeah,
and those ones are frozen. I thought, well, I didn't
try freezing the green ones because I thought, well, if
I freeze the green ones, then you've got to thaw
them out and then you you've got to wait for
them to you know, are they really hard? And I
don't know if that would work. So I only froze

(01:26:24):
the ones that are really ripe. And yeah, that does work.
It does work, really well.

Speaker 3 (01:26:29):
Appreciate it. Next, Thank you so much. Eighteen past ten
hittle twelve What have you got? Eight hundred eighty tenenty
and nine two nine to detext Avocado's landing planes and
parental advice. Well, welcome people, Marcus till twelve. How are
you going? What's happening? If you want to be on
the air, that's the point for tonight. It'd be nice

(01:26:50):
to hear from you. Oh, eight hundred eighty ten eighty
and nine two nine to de text. We've gone from
talk about the monster trucks in Eden Park, which people
are claiming was as underwhelming as I mentioned it would be.
Always felt kind of skied about that, but some enjoyed it.

(01:27:12):
There seem to be a sweet spot where people are
about four years old will enjoy it. But they're supposed
to be things that globe. It was from three to
five in the afternoon. They're right, Marcus. There we've gone on.
We've talked also tonight about landing a plane. If the
pilot couldn't do it, could you do it? Half of
American men said they could, But the reality is that

(01:27:33):
very few could. Extremely difficult by the sounds of things,
and I think they're just saying it's hard because they're
trying to talk themselves up. I think actually it's quite
a hard job. I think, yeah, I think it's it's
kind of amazing that it's hard, yet people are so

(01:27:53):
good at it, like very ready do they get it wrong?
Red Little Room, Fererra and the worst advice your parents
told you on the back of some of being told
if they feel they go about to get abducted, to
bend down and eat gras, with a theory being that
no one's gonna want anything to do with you if
you're eating grass. But it's proat of a risky maneuver,

(01:28:13):
isn't it. You might that might have been tried and
tested for you. I mean, hopefully, I don't want to
make light of abduction, but you know where we're going
to go with that. That top all the things we
are talking about today. If there's other stuff, checking the
mix twenty three past ten, if you want to come
and be a part of it, oh eight hundred eighty
ten eighty and nine two nine to text with something

(01:28:34):
else you want to check into the conversation tonight. I
feel we're quite topic hungry tonight, whereas last night we
got the whole way through just about the mail. You
never can tell, can you? You never can tell? I
wasn't quite about the mail because we've got into telegrams.
What a great thing they were once upon a time.
But yep, that's what we're on about. If you want

(01:28:55):
to come and partake, oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty,
keep those texts coming through. Also, if you've got texts,
always good Marcus. My dad gave you some advice to
his at not to marry the boy. Of course I
didn't take his advice, but he was right ditched him
three years later. He was a gambler. Wow, sometimes parents

(01:29:17):
are right, lull Marcus. Avocados once avocados are ripe, submerged
in cold water and they will keep perfect in the
fridge for ages. Ginny, do you take them out of
the water before you freeze them? Would you ever think
of doing the time in twenty four hour format to
the next time check twenty two twenty three. Yeah, I
could for the military people out there twenty two twenty four.

(01:29:40):
I don't mind doing that. Get in touch. You've got
to be a part of the show. Hen til twelve.
're on the back of the Airport's Best Big Airport
Dunedin Best No Best Big Airport, Queenstown Medium Airport, Dunedin,
Small Airport, north Shore Airport with plenty saying it's not
even airport. Don't know what to make of that. And
the best thing to do with lots of avocados, I

(01:30:05):
don't know the answer, because I think everyone had guacamole.
I think it's there must be something else you can
do with them. Alligator pears. They were once called avocado fries.
That sounds weird. Avocado devil eggs, that sounds weird. There
must be some cuisines that interesting stuff with them. I

(01:30:27):
don't know what they are. I'm looking through the recipes.
It's mainly avocado dips. Hittel twelve, twenty five past ten.
The texts Marcus would like to be on a plane
that Trump wreckoned he good Land. Yeah, there we go. Avocado,
chocolate moose, avocado great and smoothies. Really though, I always

(01:30:50):
think people are talking about avocado and smoothies. You're just
hiding it, aren't you. It just becomes the kind of
the median for the flavor. I haven't well, I've had
it for years ago. But yes, Marcus, these there are
piece for every cadd of chocolate moose. I googled and
arranged is I think that's quite often. I think it's
probably ever cut of ice cream you could make. I

(01:31:13):
don't even know if that's the thing. I imagine it's
probably a thing for those intolerant, I mean lectose intolerant people.
And who was doing ice cream? I think it even
they're doing ice cream out made out of potato, which
is interesting. Has anyone tried that? Apparently it's quite smooth.

(01:31:35):
It's a thing you're getting to need. And students started
making it. Now it's in that cookies cookie. It's quite
a good kind of a on the right going along
the street, they're selling it. Yeah, it's a thing, petties
and cream. That's the place Heartland chips and timudoo. They
get those other potatoes and they make it into ice.

(01:31:58):
I'd like to try. I might see if I can
buy it on I mean I'm not intolerant, likest. I
just like to try. It looks very good. I mean
it's frozen. It's not like look sweetmeshed potato. Any used
happening in the nestary. I'll bring that to you. People's
but hatel twelve, Kevin, this is Marcus. Good evening and welcome.

Speaker 9 (01:32:20):
You're gonna knowe how's it going good?

Speaker 3 (01:32:21):
Thank you?

Speaker 2 (01:32:23):
I'm just lie back in the hospital bed here and
I'm here and talk about the avocados, going back before
I came in hospital, going back to August. Actually went
out for this night in this wet a bit of
a pop pluck tea, and this woman we know brought
along was amazing too. She called it chocolate fudge I think.

(01:32:45):
But the whole base I think was four avocados and
you would never know it was avocados in there, and
it was absolutely amazing.

Speaker 18 (01:32:53):
Wow, So it was fudge, yeah, she called it fudge.

Speaker 2 (01:33:01):
Maybe cooky, I don't know that. It was absolutely amazing.
You never know what the base? What was four avocados?

Speaker 9 (01:33:06):
For memory?

Speaker 3 (01:33:08):
I kind of I feel it funny about when you're
using avocados, you're trying to script disguise and its avocados,
but I guess haven't got much taste, have they?

Speaker 21 (01:33:16):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:33:17):
And you know when you're mashing avocado with a fork,
it's all bloody, stringy and stuff. There was no sign
of any stringliness, and it was right. You didn't even
know there was avocado, wouldn't you?

Speaker 3 (01:33:27):
How long in hospital Kevin? Of things looking up for you?

Speaker 9 (01:33:32):
I've been here since the sixth September, and uh, five
weeks probably another week and a half week.

Speaker 3 (01:33:39):
Oh yeah, and you're gonna get You're gonna get you
out of there. Sorry, you're gonna get out of there.

Speaker 2 (01:33:44):
Oh, I certainly made. I've got stuff to do back
home with my my little buckle land out between pote.

Speaker 3 (01:33:51):
Okay, good, nice to hear that. Thank you appreciate that.
Get well, twenty away from eleven between pokaky and when
you say mcdan and mocha, no, Michael Bocker sounds good though.
So they've got a good bit of land there. Twenty
seven away from a living clock, Marcus till twelve. These
other stuff you want to mention tonight, avocados. I don't
know about avocado ice cream. I feel funny about that.

(01:34:14):
I feel that it's denying the essence of the avocado. Marcus.
Is there such an illness as long covid? Yes, I
think there is. I don't know if it's in the well. No,
I'm pretty sure it is.

Speaker 2 (01:34:25):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:34:25):
Yeah, I don't know. You tell me you can make
a great chocolate moose with avocado and coconut cream and
good quality coco. Look for recipes. The Orcan region has
ten aerodromes. Spring Hill Kuiper dairy flat parachai for Nuepai Mangai.
More Wahiki Island, Claris and Okiwi. You can't be a

(01:34:45):
good list. I think Claris and Okiwi are both great barrier.
I think Waiki Island just has one. Of course, the
floatplanes used to fly there, the old gum and gooses
or whatever they were. With landing a planet's happened more
in light to medium size aircraft. Consider landing a Britten
Norman islander flying between invere Cargill and Stuart Island. How

(01:35:08):
would you go?

Speaker 2 (01:35:11):
Go?

Speaker 3 (01:35:11):
I reckon? I've been in those a few times, landed
quite often on the beach, which is always and I
think probably I prefer a beach landing because there's more
room you go across the masons, the tides out soft
forgiving sand. That's what I do. I take it over there.
I do a beach landing. Yeah, are go, I nail it?

(01:35:33):
How bad can you go on? A beach landing goes
for miles? But that's a good analogy. I think the
planes there are the ones like on the Flying Doctor.
What are they called?

Speaker 21 (01:35:45):
You know?

Speaker 3 (01:35:45):
The ones? Those long ones I forget. I think they
might have changed them now actually being touched twenty six
to eleven. So yeah, I'm happy to talk about long COVID.
If you want to talk about that, we were are
in long COVID. People think kind of yeah, I forget
always about sketchy talking COVID because I never quite know
who we're going to trey. But yes, there will be

(01:36:07):
people out there with long COVID. I think it did
things to the brain too, if they found later on.
But yeah, look, I'm happy to provide avocado meshed on
toast with marmite and pepper and salt, or a base
for a shrimp cocktail. Wow about those for a while?
The old cocktail to shrimp twenty four away from eleven

(01:36:28):
o'clock Hitt or Midnight Texas has Long COVID has been
linked to change in the brain, like inflammation, reduced blood flow,
and slight tissue loss in areas that affect memory and focus.
It can cause brain fog, tiredness, trouble concentrating, and mood changes.
Isn't that most of us all the time?

Speaker 24 (01:36:46):
What?

Speaker 3 (01:36:47):
Yeah, but that's the trouble that's I guess It's difficult
to diagnose, isn't it. But yeah, on about that also
tonight if you want to talk about that. But yeah,
all the lines are free. I'd like to make the
effort tonight we have got a one topic night like
last night with all that talk about the letters. I
wish love to be back there. And there's one time
I was delivering telegrams. There are no boil water notices

(01:37:07):
TONIGHTNA is good to go. They've got the coal like what?
Oh no, Oa Omerco. They're both bands. They've got you've
got a boiler water to a rolling boil for a minute,
I'd go two minutes gonna be paranoid as to what
to rolling boil. It was not more rolling, it's more
I don't know what they call it rolling boil.

Speaker 9 (01:37:30):
Rolling?

Speaker 3 (01:37:31):
And avocados? How cheap are there's twenty nine cents? The
cheapest I suppose in Mount monganuis they're a dollar for
a hundred? Are they?

Speaker 14 (01:37:38):
Do?

Speaker 3 (01:37:38):
You want to do an avocado brag? But it's not
like apricots. You can't go through thousands of them. Oh,
here's a good question, dog owners, how often do you
wash your dogs? And can you oversh dogs? Did you
know that cats only me out at humans and not
to other cats? I did know that. I think I

(01:37:59):
heard someone say because most of our cats are bred
in the way that they're always in a in a
perpetual state of adolescents. If you've read about that, Where
was I hearing that that's why they don't I'm worried
about that now. I heard someone say that that was
quite wise on Forget who it was. Now, so much

(01:38:23):
information coming through these days, so I'm even checking cat
topics at your people. Yeah, I don't know what's it
with cats now. I can't see anything that's backed that up. Anyway,
let's go come on twenty one tweleven. There is anything
else you want to go? Oh, by the way, people
are now going across the highest bridge, which is in China,

(01:38:44):
took them like about six weeks to build. It was phenomenal,
six hundred and twenty five meters high. It's like three
bluff hills. That's really high. So put that on your
bucket list if your bucket list type. Not a bad
thing to go and want to do. And how often

(01:39:06):
should you wash your dog? I'd say I've got no idea.
I wouldn't want to give the how often to wash dog?
I've spelt dog back having to wash dog if we
won to three months, Ken, Ken, it's Marcus. Got your

(01:39:33):
ears on? Ken? How are you? Ken?

Speaker 9 (01:39:36):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (01:39:36):
You been disappointed and you're sill ken out? Dan call
him back having bluetooth issues. Probably fallen under a pile
of avocados, or chase them back. We'll get him and
anyone else we want to get now. They all come
through feast or famine tonight yep, and dog washing monthly weekly.

(01:40:01):
There'll be a vet out there. Good evening, Ken, This
is Marcus.

Speaker 17 (01:40:05):
Welcome, Hi Mark, Sorry about.

Speaker 3 (01:40:09):
Thanks for coming back. That's good, okay.

Speaker 13 (01:40:12):
I just wanted to say about avocado. I have a
strange relationship with the things I You know, you have
it in things like with prawn or with chicken or whatever.
But I find myself eating the avocado separately because the
thing with avocado, you either like the taste or you don't,

(01:40:36):
and if you like it, you want it on its own.

Speaker 17 (01:40:39):
Agree to me.

Speaker 13 (01:40:41):
For me, the best way to have it is to
cut the thing in half and get rid of the fit.
And then you just squeeze, you know, lemon juice from
a real lemon. Stick a fork at it and squeeze
the lemon juice into the hole and just have it
with a tea spoon. That is absolutely sublime. And that's

(01:41:02):
how I.

Speaker 3 (01:41:04):
Yeah, I think people of making ice creams and stuff.
I can't quite work out why that is.

Speaker 13 (01:41:09):
No, it's it's away with the very subtle. I mean
the avocado tastes. I thought I heard you say before.
It's quite land.

Speaker 3 (01:41:18):
I guess the word is I'm playing for a broad audience.
I guess the word is subtle.

Speaker 6 (01:41:23):
Subtle.

Speaker 13 (01:41:24):
Yeah, that's a good, very subtle. And that's why, in
my mind's pointless mixing with anything else. And if it
is mixed with anything else, I don't put it on
the four with the main ingredient of chicken or brawl
or whatever. Like I said, I find myself eating and
separately before or after the chicken or brawl or whatever

(01:41:44):
it's been put in.

Speaker 3 (01:41:45):
Have you been blessed with have you been blessed ken
by the evocato gods? And have cheap ones where you are?

Speaker 25 (01:41:52):
Yeah, they're pretty good.

Speaker 13 (01:41:53):
They fairy, but at the moment I think in the
ben they're around, I don't know, twenty nine inch or
something not as cheap as twenty nine cents like that
call before said, but you know if they're around that dollar,
I'll pick up two or three because I love a
fruit bowl in the house on top of the bridge.

(01:42:14):
And they look good in the fruit.

Speaker 3 (01:42:16):
Bowl with brilliant loving that loving the old fruit bawl God,
your fruit ball mentioned. I think once upon a time
I did a show. You can eat the pips. You
can grate the pips. You don't eating evocado pips? Yes,
that's the real joy. You make ice cream out of that.
It's an edible, but you can make it. You can

(01:42:39):
make coffee out of the pips. Some say they're toxic
to will kill you. Good evening, Ray Marcus, Welcome, Hi, Ray, Hello, welcome.

Speaker 7 (01:42:58):
Thank you.

Speaker 26 (01:42:58):
Now, look, I've been watching television and I saw some
piece gates in Northern Ireland in Belfast. It appears they
locked them up at night and they've got peace walls
as well. Now I live in Christchurch. I'm very concerned
because we don't have any Surely if they, if they

(01:43:19):
have peace gates, we should have them all over the world.

Speaker 3 (01:43:26):
Where your thinking is going with us?

Speaker 26 (01:43:29):
Well, well, they they've got peace skates. They locked them
up to I don't know why. I mean, surely Northern
Ireland is now peaceable or something. They've settled all the
troubles because you see, now Northern Ireland is a very

(01:43:49):
good indication of a two state solution because we had
the Scottish people come into Northern Ireland in sixteen hundred
or something and it's a two state solution, one half
of the Protestants and the other half a Catholic and

(01:44:14):
they have peace walls you see, well, and peace skates. Well,
can't we have peace skates?

Speaker 7 (01:44:20):
And if we're going to have a.

Speaker 3 (01:44:23):
Christ Church a two state, a two state settlement.

Speaker 26 (01:44:29):
No no, but why why should why should Belfast only
have Preece skates and we can't have any?

Speaker 3 (01:44:37):
Well, but you're not a two state system in christ Judge,
are you?

Speaker 10 (01:44:41):
No?

Speaker 9 (01:44:42):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:44:42):
No, But.

Speaker 26 (01:44:45):
We've got people screaming, particularly the Green Party who seem
screaming they should have a two state solution.

Speaker 3 (01:44:54):
In you said you need it in christ Church?

Speaker 26 (01:45:00):
Well exactly why the world?

Speaker 3 (01:45:05):
Good on your right? Twelve away from eleven. I think
the highlights of the show tonight for me are how
excited people were about discussing the airport north Shore and
the guy from Lower Heart that's he was at five
oh one. Ray not so much I think Ray's call

(01:45:25):
needed to be workshopping a bit more. But anyway, avocado
is on crumpets. Someone's I'm gonna agree with you. The
avocata on crumpet. That's great because it's kind of blend
on blend. But the thing about a crumpet, right, it's
a texture free, hard to cook it a toaster crumpet.
What you've got to do is you've got to put
it down to the toaster for a long time, and
then once it's come out of the toast, of the

(01:45:46):
bottom will be cooked, but the honeycomb side won't be
as cooked. So what you then got to do is
you've got to put the put the toaster down and
rest the crumpet on the top so it's over the grooves.
You've got to slowly rotate it over the groove so
that but gets hot as well. I could make an
art of toasting a fat I'll get some tomorrow. I

(01:46:08):
missed the crumpet season this winter because normally there's days
in the winter you can have crump love them. Never
gets better than that, I reckon especially, But they've got
to be well cooked, slightly browning on both sides, tremendous things.
If there's a small town on there, like what they
need is a crumpet festival. I reckon people would come
from far and wide, you know those towns that haven't

(01:46:28):
got anything, the anti bluffs, Because of course Bluff We've
got our oyster that drives the town. But what about
you know, he haven't got anything. Do a crumpet festival
be tremendous, be in touch. Heittle twelve oh way eight
one hundred and eighty ten eighty gold at seven thousand dollars,
brilliant if you want to mention that, I'm keen for it.

(01:46:49):
Though let's talk too quickly before the news avocados and
your avocado hacks. I'd like to hear talk about that.
And how often to wash a dog? I didn't want
to say because I didn't want to make out that
I was dog deglectful or the other one overly attentive.
But it seems like it's monthly. Someone says it depends

(01:47:10):
on the breed raised talking cobblers. I know I come
from there. Allen Marcus. Do you think a chet GPT
could run talk back in the future? How far can
this tech? Of course it could, and it won't be
the host it'll be the callers. You'd say, Marcus need
to caller forty five year old female slightly tipsy. Is

(01:47:35):
that you Marcus talking about PC gone mad? You know what, Marcus,
you know what it is. It's PC gone mad and
through they come. Northern Ireland was stolen. Marcus was never
a two state solution. Only a layalist would say that.
Was he right about Scotland? I thought it was the English?

Speaker 25 (01:47:57):
But there we go.

Speaker 3 (01:47:59):
I didn't want to get into it. I knew that
was a topic to avoid, Like the plague. English is
also good. You don't see them as much these days. Hayden,
it's Marcus. Welcome Hayden, Hey, buddy, what's up?

Speaker 22 (01:48:14):
Are we talking about crumpets?

Speaker 5 (01:48:16):
Yes?

Speaker 22 (01:48:16):
Yes, yes, oh man, hey you old crumpets. Nothing wrong
with them, but pre cooked. You brand them one end.
You just got to put them in the toaster and
put some batter.

Speaker 3 (01:48:28):
No, then you then you've got to grill the top
a little bit more.

Speaker 22 (01:48:31):
I think I don't think so. I don't think so, mate,
you do.

Speaker 3 (01:48:35):
You're eating them wrong.

Speaker 22 (01:48:37):
You've got to put them in a toaster at least
on there sitting for keep them nice and hot and toasted.
Butter marm down beautiful. That's with a crumpert. You know,
I don't know why you you shouldn't put the other
caddle on a crumpets.

Speaker 2 (01:48:55):
I agree with it.

Speaker 3 (01:48:57):
I don't.

Speaker 9 (01:48:59):
What else you got said?

Speaker 3 (01:49:00):
What else you got there? Hayden?

Speaker 22 (01:49:03):
Oh sorry, Matte, it's not speak I cut Hey, I
can hear you better now. Yeah, the crumpets are good,
but they're already cooked. They're going to be toasted. They're
just like bread.

Speaker 3 (01:49:16):
Yeah, but they need to be they need to be. Yeah,
they need to have that crispness they were.

Speaker 22 (01:49:21):
Yeah, that's where you put them in the toaster.

Speaker 3 (01:49:24):
Yes, but then they don't. Okay, Well you and I
disagree on that. That's fine. I don't think I'm going
to meet you in real life I'm going to have to.
I don't think i'd have to crump it fight you,
But that's fine.

Speaker 22 (01:49:35):
It would be a pretty sad war and a pretty
sad fight over a fucking toasted crumbs.

Speaker 3 (01:49:40):
Watch the language, Hayden. There's kids listening.

Speaker 22 (01:49:42):
Oh I am very sorry. I forgot I was on are.

Speaker 3 (01:49:46):
That's good that I've made you feel so relexed. You
don't even know you're on air. That's to my credit.

Speaker 22 (01:49:52):
Yeah, I don't. I don't textually call up much anymore.
I have done in the past, yep. And I do
very much enjoy calling up news or news talk. They'd
be and I enjoy listening to it. It has great
conversations and great topic. But I think the crumpet, I

(01:50:12):
think we've moved on.

Speaker 3 (01:50:15):
We've moved on for crumpets. What's your second topic?

Speaker 9 (01:50:18):
Oh? What would you?

Speaker 22 (01:50:20):
I was talking about? I found it interesting that you
guys are promoting the vaccine still like as advertising, not yourselves,
but advertising. I found it really interesting because I've always
listened to the old talkback radio. I just found it

(01:50:42):
really interesting that the advertising was advertising the COVID vaccine.
They come in for it if you're eligible. I thought
that stuff was all done about now.

Speaker 3 (01:50:52):
I'd be interested. I'd be interested, though, Why you found
that interesting?

Speaker 22 (01:50:56):
I found it quite interesting because here we go. I
never actually got the vaccine and never really trusted it.
And I was quite lucky to work for a company
they're actually didn't enforced us to take it. And I
was also an essential worker.

Speaker 3 (01:51:13):
What's your what's your essential occupation? Hayden? Now, let me
guess truck driver.

Speaker 22 (01:51:19):
Yeah, I was, I want.

Speaker 3 (01:51:23):
Brilliant. Thank you, Hayden Gussett's Marcus. Welcome, Hey, Cleer, how
are you good? Thank you?

Speaker 16 (01:51:33):
Oh?

Speaker 9 (01:51:33):
Very good, very good.

Speaker 5 (01:51:34):
Hey, I love ad.

Speaker 18 (01:51:37):
My favorite is on vogel. A bit of red onion,
a bit of cracked pepper, of cracked salt, and bitter
squeeze of lemon.

Speaker 3 (01:51:48):
I think I'm beautiful on the every step of the way.
I tell you, I enjoy that refine Vogels. Is it
what it's called? Very thin?

Speaker 16 (01:51:56):
Oh?

Speaker 24 (01:51:56):
Very then?

Speaker 18 (01:51:57):
Yes, But you're going to get them right.

Speaker 5 (01:51:58):
Hey, you know you can undercook the vogel.

Speaker 3 (01:52:00):
Yeah, I don't know, perfect, Gus. I don't know why
Vogels hasn't put out their own toast. It'd be a
great marketing thing. Oh.

Speaker 21 (01:52:09):
I know.

Speaker 18 (01:52:10):
You're just got to get the timer right.

Speaker 5 (01:52:11):
But you've got to remember to change it when you
did a white taste, Yeah, you get the black taste
all over again.

Speaker 3 (01:52:18):
And sometimes you got to do it twice. It takes
about half an hour, I know.

Speaker 18 (01:52:22):
And then sometimes you miss it too, and then you
cook it.

Speaker 3 (01:52:27):
I'm there every step of everything you said, Gus. I'm
there walking with you on the path from every single
thing you said, that convexation, the red onion, the black pepper,
the salt, the vogels. Beautiful. Someone said, white bait and
a crispy crumpet. I might do that tomorrow. I've got
some white bait. Yes, it's a great thing to do. Actually,

(01:52:51):
I once had called them to radio meeting. That's pro
just from me. I once got home into radio meeting
and because of performance issues I won't say what they were,
and one of the consultants told me that there was
as many decisions is running a radio show as there
was in flying a seven four seven. Just remember that. No,

(01:53:13):
I'm thinking, yeah, but you know, with radio, if you
do something wrong, not everyone dies. Youthful arrogance, Raymond, it's Marcus.
Good evening of things. Good, Thank you, Raymond.

Speaker 11 (01:53:24):
That's the story. Am I just ring up with an
avocado recipe? Yes, it's avocado cheesecake.

Speaker 9 (01:53:32):
Mate.

Speaker 11 (01:53:34):
Wow, it's yes, a bit different. I had to go
at it myself.

Speaker 9 (01:53:39):
I made this up.

Speaker 11 (01:53:40):
We used to work in hospitality in the kitchen and
I ended up mana gen and the only cafes in Auckland.
So I make the base out of you know, the
sesame seed crackers.

Speaker 3 (01:53:56):
I love those, Yes, A big fan of those. Sesamel
are they called or something like that.

Speaker 11 (01:53:59):
Yep, yeah, that's once I crush them up and drizzle
a bit of butter milk with butter through them and
make the base out of that. You don't want too
much better, And then you use your cream, cheese and avocado.
Make sure that avocados are quite ferm. Don't want anything
any brown spots. So whennything the ferm, the better, really,

(01:54:20):
but not green. Mix all that up with a healthy
squeeze of lemon juice. Don't make the topping tooth thick.
And then once you've got it on the base, once
you're the top end is cream, cream, cheese, avocado and

(01:54:44):
lemon juice.

Speaker 3 (01:54:44):
Oh yeah, so that's yeah, that's so. Everything above the
base is the topping. I see what you're saying. It's okay.

Speaker 11 (01:54:50):
Yeah, And to garnish it on the top of port
Sea salt and crack pepper.

Speaker 9 (01:54:55):
Wow.

Speaker 11 (01:54:55):
And that's it and the fridge leave it for about
four or five hours, is ready to go.

Speaker 3 (01:55:01):
Cream cheese, avocado and lemon juice. So it's quite a savor.

Speaker 11 (01:55:06):
It's not a sweet thing, no, nothing sweet. It's all savory.
That's why I don't use a sweet biscuit base. I
used the sesamel biscuits brush him up, and it was
for a stick blender.

Speaker 7 (01:55:23):
Whatever.

Speaker 11 (01:55:24):
Her ticker is your fency. The other thing I wanted
to talk about is Jim Hackey. Yeah, I was blown
away to hear he rang up tonight.

Speaker 3 (01:55:33):
He texted him to be fair.

Speaker 11 (01:55:35):
We texted, Yeah, I haven't heard from him for ages.
He used to have been the teachers for.

Speaker 9 (01:55:43):
Oh was it?

Speaker 3 (01:55:43):
Where was it in the north Shore?

Speaker 22 (01:55:45):
Was it?

Speaker 17 (01:55:45):
And like no spots or college and you point didn't
know that.

Speaker 11 (01:55:49):
Yeah, yeah, he had had a long blonde head then,
but at about twenty four it started to despair. Yeah,
I bumped into him about I was about thirty two
years old myself. I was out the back of a
walk a beach, bodysurfing out the back and I heard

(01:56:11):
this guy say call my name out and locked over.
It was Jim, and I was blown away there to
remembered my name. But I was a bit of a
mischief maker.

Speaker 3 (01:56:23):
Now I think I know he's got the cafe at
the Willington at the Queen City, but I think he
still at one of the Plymouth airport too.

Speaker 11 (01:56:29):
Has he he has My niece runs a kitchen for him.

Speaker 3 (01:56:33):
Okay, because he had a huge place in Queenstown, right,
the huge cafe there which was free. Good. But now
with all that at becoming international, you've got to go through,
you've got to go through your all electronic check before
you get to that. It's kind of ruined the airport
in some ways. It's split it so it's not as
accessible as place as it once was.

Speaker 11 (01:56:55):
Yeah, okay, I agree with what you said about New
Plymouth Airport as a great one.

Speaker 3 (01:57:00):
Of the great great airport.

Speaker 9 (01:57:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:57:02):
Easy to get through Feeny room in, straight out and disappear,
and you can.

Speaker 3 (01:57:08):
Walk to there from town along that beautiful coastal pathway.

Speaker 11 (01:57:12):
Yeah, Ken, I don't know if you can get right
out to the airport.

Speaker 3 (01:57:15):
Yeah, you kindly gotta do one, dog lea, but I
managed it. RAYMONDE to talk. Someone says, Marcus, could you
again say the secret of cooking crumpets successfully. You put
them on the toaster and you cook them until they're
brown on one side because I don't brown evenly. Then
you flip them over and you find the uncooked but
and then you brown that on the grooves of the toaster,

(01:57:37):
the two slots. You put them horizontally on the slots,
and then you get them brown all over. Otherwise they're
brown on one side and slightly unbrown on the other.

Speaker 9 (01:57:47):
I am.

Speaker 3 (01:57:47):
I do only have crumpets once a year. I like
them well cooked. When I do think about crumpets quite
if you don't eat them right away, they'll go mal.
You have those green spots on a crumpet, which is
always a crumpet crime, always disappointing. Blah blah bl Is
that right, Marcus? What do I started doing that again?

Speaker 2 (01:58:04):
Is that right?

Speaker 9 (01:58:04):
Marcus?

Speaker 3 (01:58:06):
Get in touch Hittle twelve. I hope a pilot rings
up tonight to give us thoughts on an ordinary pester
and a plane the control as they have. Yes, no
way you couldn't land it. You're just supposed to stay
clear of it. I think, Marcus, avocado, real fruit ice
cream and darker cheap cheesecake texture. It's the best five

(01:58:28):
dollars for thirteen avocados. Palmers to north peck and save
thirteen would take a bit to get through. I like crumpets.
Can you name ten different toppings for crumpets? I love
a challenge. Oh, ten different toppings for crumpets. North Korea

(01:58:49):
stlan two billion in cryptos so far this year. Yeah,
I don't reckon it's that safe. See email for details. Wow,
not if I've got to tease from an email to
a sharky your good things in coming?

Speaker 25 (01:59:09):
Avocados? Well, I live on an avocado watching so I
have avocados those days and my daughter, I see the
funny the guy was talking about the cheesecake thing. My
daughter made that last week because she likes making all
sorts of things with the avocados. But my favorite way
to have it is on toast with banana.

Speaker 3 (01:59:35):
Are you okay?

Speaker 25 (01:59:37):
I have avocado and banana to give her on toast?

Speaker 3 (01:59:40):
Would you put could you put a put a pepper
on that?

Speaker 25 (01:59:43):
Yes? I do crack pepper.

Speaker 3 (01:59:46):
I thought you might.

Speaker 25 (01:59:48):
And the dogs, because I've got the British bulldogs. They
were passed in every sort of four to six weeks.

Speaker 2 (02:00:06):
Yeah yeah, so four to six.

Speaker 25 (02:00:09):
Weeks for them. They have a but they absolutely hate it.
But when they're washed and they're nice and clean, are
they're so so? They smell so good and they're grape
to cattle.

Speaker 3 (02:00:21):
Up to tell me you say you're own an avocado
orch and how many trees.

Speaker 25 (02:00:27):
No, we just lea We leased the orchards, so it's
one hundred and fifty two mature trees but on three
point two hectares of land and Kendy Caddys and then
give We also have like plum trees and orange trees
and see Joey tree. So we never shot on fruit.

(02:00:48):
And they also have the the once the avocado festival
in Keddy Kenny.

Speaker 3 (02:00:57):
Do you sell some of them as well?

Speaker 21 (02:01:00):
Yeah, a lot of it.

Speaker 25 (02:01:02):
Jack goes to the market with PGG rights and it's
a local market. But there was a big storm come
through probably about four weeks ago and a lot of
fruit fell on the ground.

Speaker 19 (02:01:15):
So there was a lot of.

Speaker 25 (02:01:16):
Windfall avocados that ends up sort of getting donated to places.

Speaker 3 (02:01:22):
Can they handle a fall?

Speaker 17 (02:01:25):
Oh well you may do.

Speaker 25 (02:01:27):
But if you get the wind the wrong way coming
off the mountains by there, it's the wind that makes
you know how they look vany. You get a little
veiny look in the crackling in them, and it's cause
by a high wind.

Speaker 3 (02:01:43):
Okay, I think you're just cutting out there the sharky,
so be let you go. Neil Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 8 (02:01:49):
Hello, Marcus, you gave permission for anything, so very briefly,
just two things Marcus. One a delight of my life,
which attached him to get hold of is rose chestnuts.
In England you can get year round because the important
from everywhere, but I can't seem to get them in

(02:02:10):
New Zealand. But there's nothing lovelier.

Speaker 3 (02:02:14):
Yeah, nicely, Yeah, yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 9 (02:02:16):
If you like him.

Speaker 8 (02:02:17):
Second thing is landing an aeroplane. I think me and
my ilk would be ideal. I'm very old, I won't
be here along, so I fear nothing and i'd be calm. Yeah,
and i'd be calm as anything.

Speaker 3 (02:02:36):
Not a bad idea, isn't it. Because you're old enough
to its youre not be concerned of dying.

Speaker 8 (02:02:41):
Well no, I mean, plus the fact, like many people
my age, I'm in the eighties, I've got more or
less taminal stuff, you know, most of us have at
that age. And I haven't got a death wish. But
I fear nothing.

Speaker 17 (02:02:56):
Wow, I feel I would be.

Speaker 9 (02:03:00):
I would be very calm.

Speaker 3 (02:03:02):
Nice to hear from you, Neil, thanks for that. Twenty
one Past eleven twenty three Past to Leaven Hittel twelve
romance along tonight, so that's slightly out of plan. But
let's he'll be in tonight prepared Johan, good evening. Welcome Marcus, Marcus, Hi,
can you hear me?

Speaker 2 (02:03:20):
Oh?

Speaker 26 (02:03:20):
God?

Speaker 14 (02:03:21):
Oh? I love corumforts. No, I mean I don't buy
them very often because my favorite way to have them
is was butter. And I think, well, it's too high
calorie and I shouldn't be having too much butter, but
that's my favorite. But I grill mine and the oven
under the grill. And if you put sliced or grated
cheese and chopped ham and heat it under the grill,
very nice.

Speaker 9 (02:03:41):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (02:03:41):
How many would you have it? An? Would you have two?
Would you have coup?

Speaker 9 (02:03:44):
Oh?

Speaker 14 (02:03:44):
I have a let's say two, Yeah, we.

Speaker 3 (02:03:47):
Would get with a cup of we Would you have
the other four on the packet?

Speaker 18 (02:03:51):
Well?

Speaker 14 (02:03:51):
I might have three maybe, but because.

Speaker 3 (02:03:54):
When you buy pet, committed about three days, aren't you. Yeah,
I know.

Speaker 14 (02:03:59):
I put one packet on the deep freeze and it's
still and I think, I'm not that keen on freezing things,
and I think, but I just love the taste of butter.

Speaker 9 (02:04:06):
Butter.

Speaker 14 (02:04:07):
I used to churn the butter on the farm and
I just think that about by crumpets, I have too
much butter because that's the way I really like them,
you know. But we used to have them, Oh, I've
had them in the past with butter and golden syrup.
Golden syrup on crumpets. In fact, we used to butterer
the week books like that golden syrup. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:04:28):
Yeah, sometimes if you put crumpets in the freezer, joan
and you get them out there hard to separate.

Speaker 14 (02:04:33):
Yeah, I think. So you've got to let them thaw
out and then fingers.

Speaker 3 (02:04:37):
Off with that being and then with a knife to
try and get them in the toaster like that. That's terrible.

Speaker 14 (02:04:41):
Yeah, but you have to let them thaw out really.

Speaker 3 (02:04:43):
Yeah, I hadn't thought of that. I'm always if I'm
wanting them from in a hurry, I just think I'm
just they all like mesh together.

Speaker 14 (02:04:51):
Yeah, I know. But the cheese and ham on them
is very nice. Actually, you put tomato on, you can
put you know, whatever.

Speaker 18 (02:04:58):
You like on the top.

Speaker 14 (02:04:59):
They're really quite nice.

Speaker 18 (02:05:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:05:02):
Okay, nice to hear from you. Thank you for that.

Speaker 7 (02:10:19):
Think it was a Methodist church hostel for the girls
and they used to go to some of them go
to Spotsford and some of them go across the girls High.
I was there from sixty six to sixty eight.

biggest secondary school. Is that right, like sixteen hundred? I
think it was very, very bigger once upon a time.

Speaker 7 (02:11:34):
Yeah, the year after I left, as I said, I
left there in sixty eight and the school split up
into I think they called it East or West, so
two schools on the one campus basically, and I think
that year the pupil were around eleven or twelve hundred
park What was the thinking.

Speaker 3 (02:11:54):
Of splitting a school in two, Brian, I had no idea.

Speaker 7 (02:11:59):

to eat my play lunch.

Marc's I've spent the last couple of days google whether
I'm a narcissist or not. I feel I'm not. Whoever,
I feel as if the online tests may need to
be recalibrated. Oh yeah, I think probably they're trying to
sell you something. There's too many online tests. Have you

(02:13:39):
got Adhda and his narcissist? Are you a are you
on the spectrum? I've done all those tests and I'm
waiting for the results. And you got to actually give
them an email adress they start sending your stuff. I
don't know if I'm any of those things. Now, if
you get a cork and a wine bottle and opening it,
put on a forty five degree England working against your hand,
the corporates will come out of the bottle. I opened

(02:14:00):
seven thousand bottles of wine, working in a Chinese restaurant,
palms and altering university days. Mark a Vel was the
star of the show. Well, I don't think Mark a

Speaker 18 (02:15:15):
Well, yeah, the guy before was talking about trading with
the Russians, the Russian trawlers back in the day.

Speaker 3 (02:15:24):
What sort of magazines were they? Russian magazines.

Speaker 18 (02:15:27):
I thought they might be magazines.

Speaker 3 (02:15:29):
Yeah, I don't know what they were.

Speaker 18 (02:15:30):
I've been I've been on my dad's bow when we've
traded with Russians back in there. It would have been
late sixties or had been pretty young. But two big
trawlers out outside the house, out of the chathams, and yeah,
they waved us away.

Speaker 3 (02:15:46):
Hang on, yep, you're on the Chatterems and trill and
Russian trollers were coming in there.

Speaker 18 (02:15:52):
That was back in the sixties.

Speaker 3 (02:15:54):
For what for kraze or fishing?

Speaker 18 (02:15:57):
Okay, fall them you wet fish.

Speaker 9 (02:16:01):
But anyway, yeah, we traded.

Speaker 18 (02:16:04):
They just dropped the big cord down.

Speaker 9 (02:16:07):
I was young.

Speaker 15 (02:16:09):
And then.

Speaker 9 (02:16:10):
They dropped something the inn and we went to put
something on the road and they just.

Speaker 5 (02:16:15):
Back up.

Speaker 9 (02:16:16):
I didn't want to take anything from us. It's hard case.

Speaker 18 (02:16:19):
But you know, one was fueling up the other. They
looked big to me. I was only six or season,
I think at the time.

Speaker 3 (02:16:28):
Because the Russians aren't down here fishing. I suppose they're
going down the deep sea, aren't they? For toothfishes, Pedagonian toothfish?

Speaker 9 (02:16:33):
Are they.

Speaker 17 (02:16:35):
Not anymore?

Speaker 9 (02:16:36):

know what the rules were back in those days.

There was always Russian There was always Russian sailors. A
band in Littleton wandering around, weren't they They seemed to
come here quite often, but you don't hear about it anymore.

Speaker 18 (02:16:50):
I think they might come over here squid fishing stool.

Speaker 3 (02:16:54):
Actually, I've just remembered when they invaded when they invaded
who did they invade Ukraine? That there was a Russian
trawler inside bluff. That's what I remember. That goes straight away.
I think it was a Russian cruise ship was then
had to go back straight away. Maybe not down here. Yeah,

is some sort of rare flight similar on the Channel Islands.
