You're listening to the Marcus lush Night's podcast from News Talks, that'd.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
Be greetings, welcome, but even people on him as Marcus
Hittl twelve seven past day, it's Thursday, the Thursday's the
eve of the long weekend. That's exciting and exciting for me,
exciting for you, exciting for everyone just about. So yeah,
that's Thursday, free for all for me. So loose, non
curated talk, loose like a gaboost. Don't know we will
end up, don't know where we'll start. We'll just work
out what's going on for the next four and top

(00:34):
of mind stuff, bottom of mine stuff, all the stuff
you've got. Just chuck it at me and we'll see
what we end up talking about tonight. There's some stuff
you want to talk about, some stuff maybe we need
to talk about some stuff you won't talk won't want
to talk about, but we'll talk about it anyway. So yeah,
if you're driving away for long weged just know how
that's going up, presuming the roads are kind of I
don't think people already go away for the long weekend
when it's madadiki because the weather's not God. And while

(00:57):
when do these precious systems moving up the country start
going so slowly. It's been a week a week of
headlines about weather. Be across what's happening tonight too. If
there's more updates, I'll keep you across that too. Have
also got the war back on and the will in Iran.
I'll keep you updated on that also. The memorandum of
understanding is no longer a memorandum memorandum of understanding. The

(01:21):
weird thing was Trump didn't fly in that special jet
that he was given. They're scared it was going to
be taken out by terrorists. So yeah, that wouldn't have
gone well for him. Fuels down again though it indicates
that there might be some softness back in the market.
It's down to seventy seven dollars as up to seventy
eight yesterday. Said we'll keep an eye on that. Tonight

(01:42):
two I came past z on the way to work
and there was three cars to every pump. What would
there be about our people stocking up because I think
it's going to get worse? Is this the wisdom of
the messes? I've got no idea, but I'm curious about that.
How good was that of origin too?

Speaker 3 (01:59):
Again?

Speaker 2 (01:59):
Last night a whoa leam Martin, unberlievable, tough, A tough anyway,
I think they hadn't finished by the time I walked
off last night. I think there was a couple of
minutes to go. So I've got to mention that because
that was sensational. I've been get in touch if you
want to talk on air, as I said, you want
to start the whole rolling ten past eighth, eight hundred eighty,

(02:22):
ten eighty. I didn't talk as much last night as
I was too busy talking about AI scam calls. I
didn't talk as much about this new solar stuff that
probably I want to talk about. So if you're all
across this, this is a couple of panels that you're
tied to your front fence and you plug it and
you run stuff. So that's something that's going to happen
to out there. There's a lot of wisdom around solar

(02:47):
So if you're a solar influence, so if you know
a lot about it, if you're a zealot, if you're
a solar zeale it or a convert is zere it
a good word or is that disparaging? I don't really
know what it means. But if you're one of those,
let me know. Now, I'm happy with Zealot. If you're
a soul of Zealot, then you're welcome. I'm going to

(03:09):
walk towards solar. Solar Funnily enough, people don't realize that
bluff quite sunny, surprisingly, but I hate suck Zennath. It's Marcus,
good living and welcome.

(05:23):
I was half expected to hear you coming tonight and
say ectually, I wasn't here last night. That was a
I oh, Marcus. I'm driving them from Routro to hawks
By to do some trout fishing. But just asking, is
anyone off the Queen's chain still ex see the sides
of streams? Murray, I've always thought the Queen's Chain was
quite misunderstood. I think originally the Queen's Chain was all

(05:48):
about something deal was shipwrecks and the people survivors of
shipwrecks surviving. That might have been more a British thing.
Someone says, self, evacuation order from wide eye, council police
door knocking along the riverside. If we've got anyone in,
could you less know what's happening? Marcus. I've traveled this

(06:09):
afternoon from Tito to Cambridge. It took three quids an hour.
From Carpedo, we were bumper to bumper. We run a
little two betty house on a four thousand battery peck
and five hundred of panels. We're off the grid twenty
years We've saved thousands, and it's not so much of
the money you save, it's the self satisfaction. Came across
the Scotch dig repped in onion today, so repped in

(06:30):
bacon today. That's still a thing, is it? When did bacon?
When did you get repped in bacon? Just saying that
isn't a side Steve O Marcus, welcome, good evening.

Speaker 5 (06:41):
Ye talking about this Iranian war in America?

Speaker 2 (06:45):
What is happening in the last couple of hours, going
to be nearer near the radio?

Speaker 5 (06:50):
Okay, Can I make a prediction?

Speaker 2 (06:53):
Of course you can. I mean you can do what
you like.

Speaker 5 (06:54):
Crisis at the beginning when it started that by Christmas
time we could be paying five dollars a later, and
it's looking like it's on its way. Can I make
a prediction? I'll bring you.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
I thought that was right?

Speaker 5 (07:13):
Or am I wrong?

Speaker 2 (07:14):
Hang on, you're not listening to Steve?

Speaker 6 (07:16):
Was it?

Speaker 2 (07:16):
Was it your prediction?

Speaker 5 (07:18):
Yeah? So our prediction right at the beginning. Yeah, okay,
it's halfway there now.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
But when you see can I make a prediction that
is the prediction you've made?

Speaker 5 (07:26):
Yeah, I've made a prediction.

Speaker 7 (07:27):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (07:28):
Okay, five altera by Christmas.

Speaker 5 (07:30):
Five, a leader by Christmas. Unfortunately, this is going to
go on for a couple of years.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
Is that wrong?

Speaker 5 (07:37):
Yeah, I can't see any results in it because it's
the way it is.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
But I think the word they always use is intractable,
which is something you get involved with you. I'm surprised.
Are you down the old You down the old solar road? Steve?
No thought I thought you'd be a solar sort of
a No.

Speaker 5 (07:59):
I'm too old. But the time I put by the year,
But the time I spend the amount that's required to
put a solar panel would take twenty twenty five years
to pay that back if I got a loan. But
you could jerry one up with just seventy and I
don't know whether I'll be around in twenty five years.

Speaker 2 (08:20):
Time you just get Alcathine put on the glass or
something that could you could bodge one up.

Speaker 5 (08:27):
Not to produce electricity, I would give you litle.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
You need to have a shower outside under the hose.
That might Yeah, we'll put up a put up one
of those you get one of those teams warnings of
the No.

Speaker 5 (08:43):
I don't want to upset my kind neighbors. No, no, no,
I'm not beat.

Speaker 8 (08:49):
No, I don't.

Speaker 2 (08:52):
I don't want to be disappointed. Pelit, Steve. I always
thought you'd be leading that walk of the charge on
the solar.

Speaker 5 (08:58):
Yeah, well no, twenty years ago I might have. But
I can't know. But the time I've paid it off
and start making money, I'll he's pushing that, Daisies. It's
not a financial.

Speaker 2 (09:12):
But it's going to add to the value of your house,
isn't it.

Speaker 5 (09:16):
Well I don't know either.

Speaker 2 (09:19):
I don't know. I don't know. I'm not looking to
buy a house in thames.

Speaker 5 (09:22):
See in twenty thirty years time. You may have to
replace them. Are you going to spend the same amount again?

Speaker 8 (09:30):
There?

Speaker 2 (09:30):
You apposed to be a lot. I think they're coming
down on price dramatically.

Speaker 5 (09:33):
I know they are coming down on price. But yeah,
but no.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
What's you for dinner?

Speaker 5 (09:41):
Oh, I've got a very We've got a new butcher
in town and we're doing a little deal with them.
I got some very homemade beef sausages with nine vegetables
out of my own garden.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
Where's he come from? Where should but you come from?

Speaker 5 (09:58):
He's come from Auckland, He's taken over.

Speaker 2 (10:01):

Were loving the people, the small town feel.

Speaker 5 (10:06):
M he's coming here for the lifestyle.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
What is that lifestyle? What is that lifestyle?

Speaker 9 (10:12):
Again?

Speaker 5 (10:13):
We're a little bit laid back here, you know. Yeah
we're still here. Don't make a dollar, but it's it's
still a lifestyle.

Speaker 2 (10:23):
So are you bartering for the sausages? Are you swapping
him home killer?

Speaker 5 (10:26):
Yeah, I'm swapping something. I'm not saying what I'm.

Speaker 2 (10:31):
You're killing you bet killing swans? Don't you no turkeys?

Speaker 5 (10:35):
No? Well I do do the odd turkey is wallabies, dear.
I've seen wallaby up up the kime i and there's
a lot of meat on a wall.

Speaker 2 (10:47):
At in the tail. There's a lot of meat in
the tail.

Speaker 5 (10:51):
It would be like ox tail.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
That's exactly right.

Speaker 5 (10:53):
You need a big pot or kangaroo. Yeah, yeah, there
could be quite a bit of meat on.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
Did you did you have did you get did you
get a shot?

Speaker 5 (11:02):
In a shot? And no? Friend of my shot one
and he had corned and smoked and I got I
got a bit of a hind quarter. It was nice.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
Yeah, yeah, okay, Steve will let it go. I think
reminds you for what you're worth, but think I think
you should go solo Marcus. The year was nineteen eighty
seven when the Indian promise. It was last Terry appeared
on the TV show Indeed, the show This Is Your Life.
It was on Saturday night. The show is about Sarah Hillary.
I think in the morning he met the Maldi Queen.
Not sure, a small bit of history. Everyone else remember

(11:34):
the visit Saneil Papatuity. I kind of feel I remember
This is your Life with old Bob. That was good.
Was it a good show? It was a bit sort
of pompous. I'm trying to think about this is your life.
Once I'd done ed Hillary and Kiddy Dkanaa, there weren't
many other people to do, were they John Walker? Who
did they do it with? But once after a while
that kind of was like just the guy from the

(11:56):
kind of trickled down a bit, didn't it. Haven't thought
about that forever. Colin Me, daj Hackett, it's not bad.
Grant Fox, Johnny Checketts, Amos, Johnny Chickets to know that
this is your Life on him from Green Hills or something.
I think somewhere down that way. Get in touch if
you want to talk Monaimes, Marcus, welcome nineteen past eighth,

(12:17):
eight hundred and eighty today, loose like a caboose. What
he got. We've got to be in touch if you
want to be a part of the show. Hettel twelve
het those texts loose like a goose text if you can.
And Solar. I don't think we already gave a soldo
the nudge last night. We probably should have, but I
know a lot of you are probably on that Solar

(12:37):
kind of that band where I'm into it would turbine
power generators. Are there any god? I think you can
make one from the old gentle anti washing machine if
you get one at the old at the get the tip?
Is it not the King's chain?

Speaker 3 (12:52):
Now?

Speaker 2 (12:52):
Probably is, Marcus. We've came to our Queenstown trip as
my daughter has got COVID from daycare. Instead, me and
my son have been asked to take part on Son
in the North Canterbury hunting competition, hoping to get a
few rabbits or a cat wow. They get a lot
of publicity for that hunting thing in North Kent. I

(13:14):
didn't realize it was this weekend in Matadiki. He's good
at kind of winding up the media that unit anyway,
Solar and the chain and being touched here till twelve.
I'll keep you breaking with the news when that happens.
Mainly it's about the war in the Middle East. That's try.
I'm expecting the breaking youth. So I don't know if
there's any sport. Iron truce is over as US is

(13:36):
at one hundred and seventy targets over two nights. The
truce is increasingly perilous, and the Iranian army has attacked Bahrain,
Kuwait and Qatar, so it's all on. It's on now.
Actually it's on as we speak. So Bahrain, home of

(13:57):
the US Navy's fifth fleet, Kuwait and Qatar all sound
and SARA and Z defense system shot down in coming
Iranian drones and missiles. NORO immediate report to any damage.
But all that ordinance costs a fortune too, So yeah,
it's unsustainable. You can't just defend your bases forever. Bearcatch
your people who want to talk. Hitti twelve three to

(14:17):
three past eight. Situation wild Or has been seemed serious.
Residents told to prepare to leave it a moment's notice.
They think the river may rise significantly overnight because the
river is the outflow of the river's competing with three
to four meter swells coming up the coast. Looking at
Google Maps, I think quite often the the there is

(14:40):
a bar over the river, but I think that it's
hard to know, but I think the bar might have
disappeared from one of the last storms. So yeah, I'm
looking at the location of wide Or and it really
is right on the bend of a river and vulnerable.
I guess to tide and wind coming up that river,
that's push going to push the water back. So I
think they're looking at that's going to get serious later

(15:01):
on tonight high tide twelve forty seven tomorrow obviously an
intense reign between now and three am. So that's the
situation you've got to be on. You've got to be prepared,
prepared anytime that could happen. So I don't know if
we've got audience in Wide Hoyer why that. I don't
know if we've got people that listen there with our transmitters.

(15:24):
So if you're Johnny on the spot, there wouldn't be
bad to hear from you. We're going to go for
a while. That was living on the river mouth. He
had a kind of an interesting name, like kind of
rowdy or something. Forget what he's called. But anyway, haven't
heard from him for a bit. But I've got an
update from the wide Ey District Council. Floodwater is now

(15:45):
beginning to come across Coolpou Road and the road has
been closed in the Sturdy Street area. Police will be
door knocking properties in the area to ensure residents are
aware of the changing conditions and to assist anyone who
made to evacuate. If you live on near this area,
please be prepared to leave immediately if advised to do so.
If you feel unsafe, don't wait, move to higher ground,

(16:06):
family or friends, or head to the Wild War Memorial Hall,
which is open as an evaccenter. Don't travel through floods.
If it's flooded, forget it. So I'll just see what
the roads are Corpou and Sturdy Street coming on out
of the Google Maps. Bother wa if you want to
talk and there we are talking, sola and other stuff,
be amongst it. It's loose, it's Friday. Well it's Thursday,
feels like Friday. So Corpoo is the road right down

(16:29):
by the coast. That's the road that goes alongside the
river bank and Sturdy is the road that comes in Perpendiculate.
Perp looks like a beautiful town, my sort of town,
small town near the river, beautiful. Anyway, that's a situation.
They'll keep you updated with that, but if you are
there yourselves, let us know. I'd like to talk to
always someone from Widha. A lot of people wanting to

(16:51):
predict how much the fuel will be, how much it
will be in by Christmas, the troubles. I can't kind
of remember the texts by then, so I mean it
might give you a feeling, but it needs to write
down the predictions. He wants the poor I don't. I think.
I think it'll be about the same actually, So get
in touch. Marcus Till twelve oh eight hundred eighty ten
eighty and nine two nine two to text. Someone says

(17:14):
referees and Willington have walked off the job due to
side on abuse and the only game taking place of
winning this weekend is the test match. Oh it's interesting,
I did hear that earlier. So they've been logging the
abuse and writing it down so they know, but it
is escalating and most of it is abuse and threats,

(17:35):
although with the interviews I heard, I wasn't clear if
it was from the bystanders or the players. I mean,
I'm not saying that one is. I don't know what
the difference matters. Actually, I guess both are highly unsatisfactory.
But yeah, I don't quite know what's going on there.
People taking junior sport too seriously. I suppose before long
the refs will have video cameras on their heads, will
they Maybe they've got that already. I don't know. But

(17:57):
be in touch if you want to, as I say,
and solar stuff. You want to talk solar, Oh, eight
hundred eighty to ten eighty. If you want to text,
it's nine to nine two. I'm looking at towns that
have been successfully floodbanked. You've got BALCLUTHI, You've got Graymouth,
You've got in Vicago. I guess it works till it doesn't.
But they're fugly things, aren't They kind of ruined them.
That one in Graymouth ruined the nation of the town.

Speaker 4 (18:18):
That.

Speaker 2 (18:19):
Yeah, I just wonder about them. You might want to
talk about that too, if you are. And White are
also talking solar David Marcus, good evening and welcome.

Speaker 10 (18:27):
Hey, how's it going.

Speaker 6 (18:28):
I was actually waning.

Speaker 10 (18:32):
Shoot, I was wanting to talk about a little about
something more substantial than solar That's all right.

Speaker 2 (18:39):
Hey, I'll tell you what, David, Soul is pretty substantial
when you look at the situation the planet's in, if
we managed to swivel away from fossil fuels, when you
look at the war in Iraq and Iran and something
like that. So yeah, as far as substantiality goes, I
wouldn't make any claims that soul is not substantial, despite

(19:02):
what you read on the internet. Well, and it is,
I think Eve. After all, David, are you traveling? Are
you traveling away for the long weekend?

Speaker 10 (19:14):
Just traveling back home? Had a bit of a long day.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
We're at I was tower and we are you traveling
back to.

Speaker 6 (19:23):
South ausun perfect?

Speaker 2 (19:26):
We're working. We're working down there.

Speaker 11 (19:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (19:30):
I was yeah, yeah, yeah, fulling some trees and I
got my biggest stuck.

Speaker 2 (19:35):
No really yeah did you did you get it out?

Speaker 9 (19:40):
Oh?

Speaker 10 (19:41):
Yeah, at the expense of at the expense of a
chain at the back of my trailer. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (19:46):
So have you made money for the day of your
lost money?

Speaker 10 (19:50):
Probably lost money today.

Speaker 2 (19:52):
It's heartbreaking.

Speaker 10 (19:54):
You get that on the big jobs, don't you.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
Well, well you do. I can't break any I can't
break any equipment on my jobs. I've got none to
break apart from my mouth.

Speaker 10 (20:04):
I'm sure you've got an expensive clothes sitting around. You
can have a go at.

Speaker 2 (20:08):
I wouldn't know. I'm not really I don't really touch
it anyway. What do you want to say?

Speaker 1 (20:12):
Ah?

Speaker 10 (20:13):
Oh, not to say soulars are not substantial or anything,
but I wanted to talk to you about immigration. Sure,
Oh well, I just saw statistic that I google which
is and it's correct, and it was that forty two
point nine percent of book Film's population it's are born.
And I just wanted to know, like, at what point

(20:34):
does does the immigration sort of come to our holt,
because it seems every year it seems to get a
little bit more and more, and it just seems to
me that Auckland is maybe losing its losing it's what
you might call it, it's losing its image.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
And what you might say, what what is its image
that it's last?

Speaker 10 (20:55):
David, Well, the key way image. I guess you've got
a lot of You've got a lot of people talking
a lot of different languages, from a lot of different places,
and I think, you know, I like, I like all
different people called from walks of life. You can't hear
about where they come from.

Speaker 2 (21:13):
You can't like everyone.

Speaker 10 (21:16):
Wow, I kind of do like everyone, really. I mean,
I mean most of the people that seem to come in,
I'm very good people. I mean, there's obviously a very
good criteria that they will meet when they come over.
So nothing nothing wrong with the people that come over.
But I'm just thinking that the sheer numbers. You know,
you've got one point four billion people in India, and
you've got this, You've got this Modi visit coming up,

(21:38):
and you know, Winston is repeating talk of you know,
more Indians coming over and apparently it's only five thousand
that he's saying it's going to be twenty thousand. And
I'm just a little bit I don't know. I just
want to hear your thoughts on it.

Speaker 2 (21:52):
Basically, it is it affecting you.

Speaker 10 (21:57):
It's definitely noticeable. It's definitely noticeable, and we're.

Speaker 2 (22:00):
Definitely noticeable when you google it or you work more
for what I've.

Speaker 10 (22:07):
Definitely noticed that the population changing a lot more, a
lot more Indians are getting work done, I think, David.

Speaker 2 (22:16):
I think the population of Auckland's always changed with its
demographics and it's how old are you twenty six? Yeah,
I think if you look back, if I think, if
you look back in time over the population of Auckland,
if you look at from everyone from hundreds of years,
the makeup has always been dynamic. And that's the story
of New Zealand as well. It's sorry of migration, particularly

(22:37):
with Auckland too, with people from the Pacific for in
the sixties and seventies, people from Asia in the eighties
and nineties. It's always been incredibly dynamic and there's always
been concerns about it always seems to have worked itself out.
But yeah, nice to hear fling your twenty five away
from nine, eight hundred and eighty to eighty. Egypt or

(22:58):
Morocco will win the World Cup. One of those countries
will be the first ever African country to win a
World Cup. I'm going to England France and the final
and that works. I eat it Broughady out by the
way too, So it's a silly text. They got beaten
by Argentina and of course they beat us, so at
least that would make us feel good that we're not
there anymore. Does anyone know what the efficiency is of

(23:23):
current solar panel technology? I think it may be very low,
though I might have found a way to fix this
and improve batteries. Ellen, let us know what you've done. Allen,
I'd love to hear from you. I'll keep your dre
with information too, if I've got it. The number is
O eight hundred and eighty ten eighty and nine two
ninety two to text. See what I was reading about
before I came on here tonight. I was reading about

(23:46):
the skiing numbers in Japan.

Speaker 12 (23:48):
What's happened?

Speaker 2 (23:48):
There is anyone who heard stories of people moving to
Japan and buying houses at ski resorts? Because what's happened
the number of skigers in Japan? I said Japan tonight.
The number of skiers in Japan has gone from eighteen
million to four million. Now, I don't know if anyone's
across this. I don't even know. I mean, for a start,
I didn't know that Japan had gone ski crazy, and

(24:11):
that suddenly, just because of demographics and population and whatever,
they just stopped skiing. And there's hundreds and hundreds of
abandoned ski resorts. Yeah, I had no idea, and some
it's probably climate change also, but yeah, just suddenly bomp gone.
I don't know if that's going to happen in New Zealand.
Did happen I went to I went to a talk

(24:34):
in Cromwell once and the guy there was involved in
tourism in Central Otago. He said that in Central Otago
cycling is worth more than skiing. But I've always failed
to accept that. But just having been up there and
just seeing that skiing still seems like a big deal
in New Zealand, I just wonder where we are with

(24:55):
that whole thing, and also wondering I reached that last night,
where we are with the whole situation with the north
side of the pair, who with the two ski fields there,
and the fact that the whole ownership of that had
changed and there was there was government bailouts and all
sorts of stuff to keep the mountain open. If in
fact this I think last year's ski season was all

(25:16):
right there. But what's t happening on aph is it
slightly later when the snow there kicks in, because of
course it's the school holidays. Now that's where you want
to be peaking. You might want to talk about that also.
Eight hundred eighty ten eighty and nine nine two detect
Marcus s till twelve Marcus in regards to abuse of
reps pear pressure from within Marcus, I'm a qualified engineer,

(25:38):
mechanic of designed and build a motor that is powered
by light, not sun out of daylight or lights, but
ultraviolet light. It's spill. It spins full revolutions with a
mechanism that spins with ultravart light. No gimmicks, no joke, Robert.
I'll keep your post and we'd love to hear about that.
Always up for something for nothing, but you get in
touching on talk on here, Marcus till twelve oh, eight

(25:59):
hundred eighty ten ad. By the way, they say State
of Origin last night was the most watched State of
Origin ever. No surprises there. It's a quality product. Quarter
finals tomorrow France, Morocco. That's the situation. And then we've
got the All Blacks playing Italy Wellington uncovered. We've played
them seventeen times, we've never lost to them. So I

(26:20):
reckon it's a yawn. I won't be watching it. I'll
be at the Sharks watching the basketball. Just put that
out there. By the way, there's tough weathery're coming up
the country heavy parts heavy rain for part to Hawk's
Bay and gisbond tad Afitti southerly gales for central New Zealand.
If you are driving, let us know if you've got
any updates the numbers eight hundred and eighty ten eighty
and nine two dets. I want to talk solar also,

(26:43):
and when do you think the rail loop's going to open.
It's got to open this year when we've seen the
videos forever of how amazing it looks New Zealand's longest escalator,
which made me wonder what was previously New Zealand's longest escalator.
And I can't answer that, but that's what's going on.
So yeah, anyway, they stay open sometime before the lect
I just can't work out when. But you want to
talk on here. That's the situation nineteen to nine. I've

(27:07):
just had an email from Andrew. He says, Monday show
for Relatin, the piece you read a listener's text concerned
it to Kaha's pitfalls up till then everything we've heard
was talked up. How brilliant the stadium is a show.
Hearing other attenne's opinions may allow more insight into the stadium,
being it's cracked up to me, I'll tell you what
the I've got that text there if you I can
read that to you too, because I can search through

(27:29):
the texts and I'll tell you what. I'll read it
to you because I was surprised by that too, and
I just read it again. I'm not looking for dirt
on Takaha. I'm just curious to know if it's what
people's experience were after on Saturday and the text this
name is Gareth Cloff for your opinion on Takaha. That'll
be unpopular among fellow Christ's residents. Problems include the long

(27:49):
cues to enter the manual ticket scanning, long cues for
the concessions, people in the temporary stand having to leave
the roof stadium to get refreshments and use the toilets
outside the stadium, and for some reason, for the all
black tests, the stadium lighting was ridiculous bright, making it
hard to focus on the place. Lots of corners cut
to keep the cost down. It's far from world class,

(28:12):
but better obviously in the temporary stadium so it might
take a while for people to realize the shortcomings quite
apart from being too small. Also, just in defense of Takaha,
I haven't been, but I'd say probably that you go
through a learning curve when you open stadiums. Well, I
have never opened the stadium. I imagine you would, so
some of that stuff might be ironed out and it
might get better. So if you've got some opinions about that,

(28:35):
come through. By the way, I'm surprised that the whole
story of the State of Origin is about the forward
pass and the Bunker. Rather, the Bunker did quite well
with that. I wasn't too concerned about it. Queensland wasn't
going to win anyway. But just putting that out there people,
you might want to mention something else about that lines
three if you want to talk fifteen away from nine. Yeah,
soul is a major topic, and skiing in Japan and

(28:57):
the death of that, and Takaha and wider are the
stadium And would you put bacon on a Swiss on
a Scotch gig. I don't think you would, would you? Oh, well,
there's something different you want to mention. That's all the
plans stand. You might let me know how busy it's
been fueling up for petrol tonight too, because it seems
as though the o've seen big although I think they
might be a Thursday night special. But you've got more

(29:17):
information about that. That's fine. I could talk for ever tonight,
So I'm not fussed if you want to come through
or not, but it'd be good to hear from you.
So yes, but they are say with why, oh, I
better to leave now. That's happening also tonight too, So yeah,
that's a situation too. So if you got might have
some other thing you want to discuss, you might be
hitting something I've got. I've got more updates on the
weather from tait Affati Cura far no few. It's wed

(29:40):
out there. We're all a bit nervous when we hear
continual rain on our roofs, but we can assure you
we have our teams continuing to monitor our rivers and
keep an eye on the weather. This will continue until
the current yellow heavy rain watch expires at ten am
tomorrow morning, that's Friday. We've just received the latters from
Metservers who extended the watch for an hour. Other than that,
there are no changes. Let's hope it remains that way.

(30:02):
Take care out there, stay home if you can. A
lot of water around will keep you update. As soon
as they cross our desks. Our duty team will be
monitoring throughout the night. That's tad after the Civil Defense.
Are good on them. Fourteen to nine. Nice to hear
from your Ryan. Good evening, Get America's how our good Ryan?
What's happening?

Speaker 6 (30:21):
I am the stadium.

Speaker 13 (30:23):
I live in christ Jewis. I'm going to say first
time call her a long time lister. Haven't been to
the stadium, but after all the shenanigans of the stadium
and what he hear feedback is I think they put
it in the wrong place because they haven't thought about
car parking all that rubbish when they've done it. But
I think it's ridiculous how they close down half a

(30:44):
city for every game when they have a big event there.
What about all the businesses that are in this city
that they can't operate because the city's full of people
going to the stadium and there's no parking all there's
no room for you know, the food goers and all
the people going.

Speaker 6 (31:04):
To do the shopping.

Speaker 2 (31:05):
What are they closed down?

Speaker 13 (31:07):
I mean they close half the streets down and then
they have these big marches up to there.

Speaker 2 (31:12):
Oh, so they close the streets down so people can
walk down the road. Is that what happens?

Speaker 13 (31:18):
I personally haven't been to the stadium myself, but it's
like they closed half the city down and they closed
streets down so they can have walks down. There's but
broke and all that sort of stuff, and I mean
there's no pucking for every goer that goes to the stadium.
It's like it's I personally think it's in the wrong place,
and they haven't.

Speaker 2 (31:38):
But like now that, but are people still raving about
it or is this after Saddays matches there is the
opinion a bit more considered.

Speaker 8 (31:47):
I don't. I haven't.

Speaker 13 (31:48):
I mean, I know my owner myself, and I don't
hear people really raving how good really, you know, I
haven't had anyone tell me how how awesome it was,
or you get the complaints of how stuffy it is,
and like the person said earlier, you know, the big
long queues and all that sort of stuff. But you yeah,
it's overpriced for food and drinks and it gets stuffy

(32:09):
in there, and the bright lighting and all that sort
of stuff.

Speaker 2 (32:12):
That's the feedback, like okay, okay, because because when it
first opened, people were people were ecstatic with pride.

Speaker 13 (32:20):
Yeah, I agree, but yeah, as time goes on and
a YEA not a fan, I'm not as a local.
I'm not jumping for joy to get me myself.

Speaker 2 (32:35):
Okay, I will throw that out a little bit wider
and nice to hear from you. So nice to phone
met I like that. Yeah to Kaha, I'll get there.
I'll get there. I don't know what I'll get there for.
If you have to think, well, if the Warrior's play
the next year, I'll go. If there's a test and
I've got tickets, I will go if there is. I
just don't think another maybe if there's some World Cup

(32:55):
or something that we get here, I don't know what
it'll be, but yeah, I'd like to get up to experience.
I don't know if there's going to be a concert
that's going to be my jam, But you never know.
Anyway to stay in touch if you want to talk,
if you want to mention that. Also, it's nine away
from nine, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty up till
he till twelve. If you want to be a part
of it is, I say, oh, eight hundred and eighty
ten eighty six to nine, tanire, it's Marcus welcome.

Speaker 14 (33:18):
Yeah, Hi, Marcus was the first time call. I just
want to talk about the last man who was talking
about the stadium. Sure, yeah, he's never been there. I've
been there about seven or eight times that I've been
for the concert and everything. And I tell you what,
he doesn't know what he's talking about. All those businesses
are making lots and lots of money off people going
into town and enjoying themselves before and after game.

Speaker 2 (33:40):
Did you go to the test with the extra five
thousand seats?

Speaker 14 (33:44):
I sure did. Yeah, I went to that one as well.

Speaker 2 (33:47):
Were you in one of those extra five thousand seats? No,
I wasn't among the other I think the guy that
was criticizing it was in one of those five thousand
seats and he thought that that was a bit disorganized.
There was other stuff too, But you think it's You
think the experience has been equally superb in all seven
of the events you've been to.

Speaker 14 (34:05):
Absolutely, thank you. Stick ten has got really good, well
sorted out. They have security everywhere you can walk up
and down the street.

Speaker 2 (34:13):
You went, you went you in Canterbury six sixty. You
went the Warriors, you went the All Blacks. What else
did you do?

Speaker 14 (34:22):
I didn't do the Warriors, but I did the sleeper
games at the start of the season, the last games. Yeah, yeah,
the Sleeper Round. It was called I think we felt
I said that as well. So we meet the three
or those are we sitting in different seats?

Speaker 15 (34:35):
Time?

Speaker 2 (34:35):
Great? Please you please with the Toney. Good on you
for being so enthusiastic. Tony. It's Marcus.

Speaker 9 (34:42):
Welcome, kay, Marcus.

Speaker 16 (34:46):
I was just kind of.

Speaker 10 (34:48):
Backing up, just recorders.

Speaker 16 (34:50):
Then I was in the extra five thousand seats the
other weekend and it was it was blooming awesome. No, no,
no complaints whatsoever. And I think it's great that there's
there's no parking. I need to stay. End of it
entitles people to get out. You get on the old
limescooter or what have you, or use public transport and

(35:11):
get us get into that way or.

Speaker 2 (35:13):
A Flamingo scooter.

Speaker 10 (35:15):
Exactly.

Speaker 6 (35:15):
Mate, Did you have to go out?

Speaker 2 (35:18):
Did you have to go outside the stone and use
the toilets from the extra stands?

Speaker 3 (35:23):
No?

Speaker 16 (35:23):
No, no, I'd just dropped down at halftime, went for
a p and got a beer.

Speaker 9 (35:28):
And went straight back to the sea.

Speaker 2 (35:29):
How much was your beer?

Speaker 16 (35:32):
It was eight dollars.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
I think it cheaper than the fee for World Cup.

Speaker 9 (35:38):
It's absolutely mate.

Speaker 10 (35:39):
It's awesome.

Speaker 16 (35:40):
And then they've got to be after the game as well.

Speaker 6 (35:41):
Town was humming.

Speaker 16 (35:42):
It was great. It's a great spot.

Speaker 2 (35:44):
What bend do you want there? Next?

Speaker 11 (35:48):
Good question?

Speaker 6 (35:51):
O gee whiz? What band were like there?

Speaker 11 (35:54):
Next?

Speaker 14 (35:56):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (35:57):
Shape Shifter?

Speaker 16 (35:58):
I'll go see shape Shaphifted there?

Speaker 2 (35:59):
You wouldn't go? What you wouldn't go? Robbie Williams though?
Would you?

Speaker 16 (36:03):
Probably not market?

Speaker 2 (36:05):
Just for it's just for the mother Tony, Thank you,
Robby Williams. We have to pay to get him. Who
else do we go for? Limp, biscuit or blink? Always
get them confused? Sure that's the other one she would
have gone to. It hasn't happened yet, he has it?
Who else was there? Anyway? Get in touch? You want
to talk eight hundred eighty too?

Speaker 4 (36:22):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (36:22):
I think the fuees are coming? Is They like to
call them on a hood like it's always the Phoeies
my day they were the food Fighters, Well minor they
really am. There was another band altogether. Get in touch
HERE'TLL twelve anyway, and we got anyone disparaging about the stadium.
Maybe that's the question. Brinting's welcome some frilly mixed comments.
They've good and bad about the stadiums, to keep those
coming through to if you want to comment on that too.

(36:44):
Some people have enjoyed blink one eight two. There you go,
that's what that was, So there we go. Oh wait,
one hundred and eighty ten eighty some I agree with
what that guy said about christ Church Stadium, but it's
still better than the others in New Zealand. Oh yeah,
I guess the thing about the newest stadium was always

(37:05):
the best stadium. To another one comes along. People loved
old forsythe Bar when that came, and they are four
sythe baths, four sythe Bar. It's become a bit of
a white elephant, though, hasn't it subsequently, and more so
now that christ Church will get the jigs. Although I
didn't see how Gregor Paul boy he loves his Rugby
dinner and going on about the fact that the cover
I forget what he was saying. This bigger Oh they're

(37:26):
not getting enough revenue from the games because the good
places where the games are are the covered stadiums, but
they're the smallest two of the four. The Dunedin and
christ Church are the ones where they're playing. Is more
spectacular because it's covered. But the two biggest of christ
Church and Auckland, and they are good because they're exposed,
but it's where the people live. Goodness. Bonnie Tyler has died.

(37:50):
This is news. Just through we'll be playing Eclipse of
the Heart and its totality. Singer Bonnie Tyler, known for
the hits and clean totaler Clips of the Heart holding
on for a hero, It's a heartache, has diared age
of twenty five. She's Welsh obviously, Bonnie's found and Tiama
Heartbreak and renounces that Bonny unexpectly passed away last night
hospital in Portugal as a result of the illness she

(38:12):
had been tread for. She'd been sick for a while.
She had emergency surgery after she's put in to a coma.
After having an emergency surgery in Portugal, she was in
a coma but remained unwell and in intensive care. Humble
Beginnings Council Health and Neath discovered by a talent scout

(38:34):
in Swansea It's a Heartache reach number four on the
UK Singles Chart and number three in the US Billboard.
Hot one hundred nine eighty three was Total Eclipse of
the Heart Huge, of course, was written by Jim Steinman,
Meat Life singer. It was originally titled Vampires in Love

(38:56):
and who hasn't felt that they're living in a powder
care giving off sparks. But that's news just through she
is dead at seventy five. That is Bonnie Tyler jackets
Marcus good.

Speaker 12 (39:05):
Evening, yeah mate, sorry, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (39:09):
Welcome Marcus here, good evening, Yeah.

Speaker 12 (39:12):
Welcome, Marcu's good evening. Yeah, sorry about that. Just dropped
off to sleep.

Speaker 9 (39:18):
But they.

Speaker 12 (39:20):
Just talking about the just talking about the soul of mate,
of his soul for about ten years, absolutely awesome. Yeah,
got a system that was put in to reduce my
power build to zero, which it did and is still

(39:42):
doing ten years down the track. They reckon about thirty
years your panels will last and you'll save on average
about one hundred and thirty eight thousand dollars over a
thirty year period.

Speaker 7 (39:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (39:59):
I just it seems as though that it seems I
can't quite work it out because it seems as though
the economic advantage increases every year when it gets cheaper
and cheaper. So I wonder when when the sweet spot
is to invest do you say it's always or do
you say it's getting better?

Speaker 12 (40:18):
The panels are getting more powerful and more efficient, So
that's that's the place you get more panels on a
given area of your ceiling if you want to put
them up there on your roof. Sorry, but yeah, the
efficiency of the panels currently are all running around about
twenty three percent, which is quite low of what's available

(40:40):
from the sun. But there's new ones in the early
stage of development that can get up to about thirty percent.
What they're not sure of is how long they'll last.
Will they continue with thirty percent throughout their lifetime? And
that takes a reasonable amount of time to make that assessment.

(41:02):
But yeah, overall, very very happy with it now. Just
recently they've now got hybrid inverter controllers that will control
where that power goes if you if you're required in
your house, it'll go to your house. If you've got excess,
it can charge a battery, it can charge your car,

(41:23):
it can put some back into the grid if all
those things are done. So yeah, if you really went
for it.

Speaker 5 (41:30):
Oh.

Speaker 12 (41:31):
The other thing is it will heat your hot water.
Go for electric what do you call it? Things you
have in your house to warm your house up? Or
lost track of me.

Speaker 2 (41:45):
Oh, are you talking about a heat pump or something?

Speaker 12 (41:47):
Or heat pump on top of your on top of
your hot water cylinder, and that in itself will save
seventy percent of your electricity build on your hot water heating.
I've got gas, but gas has gone up real quick
in price. The last forty five kg cylinder of boots
one hundred and fifty one dollars. About three or four

(42:10):
years ago, that was ninety dollars. So I was thinking,
if you get off that and get free power heating,
seventy percent of your hot water cylinder bill. Now the
big bug bear is capital upfront. That's why it's only
about two percent of New Zealand houses that have gone
on to it is that they can't afford the capital upfront.

(42:35):
So that's where the government's started to think about maybe
who should do something about that. Now, when I put
mine in, I could have paid it back over four years.
So I paid the capital required over two years and
from there on I was making money. That's pretty much

(42:58):
of it in a nutshell.

Speaker 2 (42:59):
Did you have to maintain your panels at all? Do
you actually have to wash them to make you do that?

Speaker 6 (43:04):
For you?

Speaker 12 (43:05):
They told me you didn't, but I have, and I
just use a broom because there's a big pine tree
across the road gets all over your car and everything,
you know, and it just needs a bit of a
brush to get it off. The other thing they didn't
tell up me about was startings will try and make
a nest underneath the thing. Now that was a mission

(43:28):
trying to get that. Is there only about fifty mili
above your your roof, so but yeah, water blast the
bill all out.

Speaker 2 (43:37):
How would you get rid of starring? It's just got
to sabotage their nest, is that right?

Speaker 12 (43:41):
Sabotage your nests that haven't been back. Okay, so there's
a one off event. But yeah, just little things like that.
But that's put aside to one side. You know, absolutely
superb meent. If we could get more people on there,
it's going to save having to build more hunting power stations,
you know, which is huge money. So the government could

(44:04):
put it into having solders on houses like they have
in South Australia. But what's happened there. It's a very
interesting thing is that because there's so many people now
hooked up to solar over there, over fifty percent of
the houses, they're asking for more rental on the line,
rental to maintain them. Yeah, so that was a bit

(44:28):
of official okay.

Speaker 2 (44:29):
And I see that people in Australia three hours free
every afternoon because they've got excess capacity, correct, Yeah, which
is amazing. Which is amazing because it seems like this
scheme was too successful and what they just thought would
be households is people putting the whole quarter acre into
solder things and becoming Yeah, so they really got into it.

Speaker 12 (44:49):
Yeah, exactly, And that's what you tend to do. You think,
what else can I use this for?

Speaker 5 (44:53):
You know?

Speaker 12 (44:54):
They guy up the road mode mechanic and he went
out and brought the hybrid k you know, and just
comes in at night, plugs it in and he's saving
hundreds of dollars on fuel bill. It's free.

Speaker 2 (45:07):
It's interesting. It's a motor mechanic core because they're also
going to do the motor mechanics out of business art
make because there's nothing to go wrong with them.

Speaker 12 (45:16):
Maybe that's why he's doing it, mate.

Speaker 2 (45:18):
Yeah kidding in wal he can Yeah, oh brilliant, Okay, yeah,
good dear from your jet. Sorry for the sleep when
you're on hold sixteen past nine, get in touched. My
name is Marcus. Welcome eight hundred and eighty to eighty Solar.
Now I just I'll ask this guy always asked this
when someone dies. Bonnie Tyler, I'm sure she came to
New Zealand. I'm sure she did like a vineyard tour.

(45:41):
You might have experienced her. If someone knows that, in
fact she was about to tour, I beg your pardon.
That is disrespectful. I think she might have been on
her way, am I right? I don't know. Things come
up when I google them, and sometimes I wonder for
to day I was she coming to New Zealand or
had she been here? You'll know that let me know
about this. But she has died at seventy six, been

(46:02):
in a hospital in Portugal for a while. So she
was going to be part of the Timeless Summer Tour?

Speaker 11 (46:08):
Or was she?

Speaker 2 (46:09):
So she was due to play in twenty twenty five summer?
Did that happen? Q two Church Road Runnery Napier Bowl,
New Plymouth Bay Park tod Oner. I imagine she was.
You will know. Let me know about that too. I
need to fact check. I don't know she's here or not.
But she was posting that she was about to tour.
Did that happen. I'll check on that. But get in touch.

(46:30):
You will have met her. There'll be people out there
that have met her or something like that. So do
come through if you want to talk. O wait at
eighty ten eighty and nineteen ninet two de texts and
sold her and that christ Church Stadium. There's been a
few of negative comments about it now yeah by Ai
sais Bonnie Tiller scheduled before the time of summer to
Queen Elizabeth Suppark and christ Church January eleven, twenty twenty five. However,

(46:53):
the entire New Zealand and Festival tours postponed. I was
all because of the Juicy festival was orble to do
with logistics. It's going to be boy George LRB, Starship
and Bonnie Tyler. That's what's happened. Kit Text if you
can too, O weaight one hundred and eighty ten eighty
nineteen ninety to text. Marc's one of the biggest issues
is cold older homes depending on where you live. Solar panels,

(47:16):
I don't think are a great solution. Germany triple le
glazed their windows. We had so many headings thrown us.
Really they haven't stolld thisue. It all lookscept a lot
of money. So well, actually you talk about Germany, but
Germany has had an absolute solar power revolution, so yeah,
they really have got onto that. Mind you that powers
are much more expensive in Europe apparently, so the solar

(47:40):
revolution in Germany has been unprecedented. It's called energy Vendi,
and it's transferred the country into a global renewable energy leader.
They are solar mad, Yes, solar households to protect themselves
from the price shock of fossil fuels by combining their
love for solar with battery storage systems. Last year Germany

(48:00):
generated more interesting from wind and solar than any other
EU country. So there we go. They're going out like that.
There's no tomorrow, and there mightn't be a million plugging
kits installed in three years. Same thing feed in tariff.
So what the labor government hasn't has the labor and
national govert What they're proposed is not that new It's
just what everyone else has done around the world. We're

(48:21):
just the fast follower. Marcus Bonnie Tyler toured a few
years ago with the Greenstone Tours that did Queenstown Topor
and Fittianga. She'd played with Alan Parson's Project ice House
maybe eight years ago. Well, if you think it eight
years ago, it'll be twelve years ago, doesn't it. Because
what seems like you always double, you always add fifty
percent with memory. I found someone said Jim Steinman wasn't Meatloaf.

(48:46):
He wrote from Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's what I said.
I realized that Jim Steinman wasn't Meatloaf. But yeah, but
of course once you'd hear that, you know, the songs
are so similar, that kind of musical op for a
kind of thing thing thing A lot happening tonight. By
the way, I see the escape room in kai Kota

(49:07):
was flooded, which is ironic, and the Minigulf by the
same owner. I think, so, yeah, it's this will be
probably one hundred million dollars this flood, I would think
in costs. So every flood's pricey, pricier and pricier. But
these are the topics and Solar and Takaha now met
service issue to heavy rain warning for the ranges of

(49:28):
Hawk's Bay north of Napier for fourteen hours from an
hour ago to'll telling him tomorrow morning, expect ninety mils
of rain on top what's already fallen. Peak rates up
to fifteen millimeters per hour, easing around dawn. Minimal chance
of upgrading.

Speaker 11 (49:42):
To a red.

Speaker 2 (49:45):
So that's the region. That's the update from then twenty
one past nine. Interesting about Bonnie Tyler. She married a
nineteen seventy two Olympic judo competitor. They had a dairy,
owned a dairy farm and a quarry. The dairy farm
was in New Zealand. Perhaps the quarry was too. Didn't
know that. That's news to me, Pauline. This is Marcus
at Good Evening.

Speaker 5 (50:05):
Hello, Mark, Just a quick question. There must be millions
of solar panels in around.

Speaker 2 (50:11):
The world by now, do you think yes, there would
be okay, more than doors.

Speaker 5 (50:16):
Yeah, as any part of a solar panel recycling.

Speaker 2 (50:20):
Yes, they do recycle them. Apparently they do.

Speaker 15 (50:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (50:23):
Great, that's great, Thank.

Speaker 8 (50:25):
You very much.

Speaker 2 (50:26):
I'm pretty sure that's true.

Speaker 5 (50:28):
Okay, thank you, Marcus.

Speaker 2 (50:29):
Yep, good on your Pauline. I don't know what they do,
just retelling you that news that Bonnie Tyler has died
at seventy six. And if you talk about power ballads,
you put Bonnie Tyler at the head of the list.
Don't you footloose need another hero? That was a big
song in that movie. Wasn't it great film? Never saw it?

(50:51):
Just ream with the soundtrack so well. Marcus wide Ear
has opened its war memorial halls of evacuations. See that
as the wide Ora real level is rising. Tyler clips
one of the most powerful ballads ever. Bonnie, what a
strong voice. Rip that song will forever fiercely Protestant family,
grow up singing in church choirs, debut singing all things

(51:12):
bright and Beautiful in church, as so many of us
have done. Entered the talent competition, got beaten by someone
playing an accordion. Happens to us, all, Yeah, I don't
know what the accordion is played. I don't know what
she played, but she got spotted. She was and for
someone seems to and I don't know a lot of
the backstory, but she seems to be someone that invested

(51:34):
sensibly and had a very successful career, successful and lucrative career.
Big in France, of course they they did total Clips
of the Heart in French. Say to men, turn around,
So yeah, there's no shortage. What we can play tonight.
M She actually performed Eclipse of the Heart with Lucy

(51:56):
Lawless on celebrity duets. Of course Lucy Lawless is a
great voice. So there we go.

Speaker 9 (52:00):
That is that.

Speaker 2 (52:01):
Someone said she was known as the female Rod Stewart.
I didn't know her as that, but good on you.
I'm prepared to embrace that. And we are talking solar,
and we are talking the stadium Takaha, and we are
talking many other things tonight. And Bonnie Tyler, you live
a Bonnie Tyler? What we're a dairy farm? Was Ah,

(52:21):
never knew that. Yes, it's in the quiz. It's pretty amazing.
Now things aren't good in Iran and that's gone off.
So yes, I'll keep you posted on that. If you've
got more information for us, let's slan what that information is.
We play Italy on Saturday. We've played them seventy times,

(52:42):
we've betten them all but our record is not tremendous
at Wellington, but we will beat them. And if there'll
be a great upset. But anyway, that's a situation. So
there we go. And if you want to talk on air,
that's the plan of anything else you want to mention good,
I'd like to hear from you. They're saying the weather
and the long weekend could be stunning, not that you'd
know with the week of weather, but it's cleared out
the pressure system. Saturday Sunday should be good. Monday. Monday's

(53:07):
not the public holiday tomorrow, is it not? If we
have one on a Friday. I prefer it that way.
And text if you can and be a part of
it if you want eight hundred and eighty ten eighty
and nine nine two to text those emails coming through. Actually,
I'll tell you something that I can tell you I
haven't told you before tonight. Mikey bebben as long as
twelve o'clock tonight, so that's happening. You'll be coming along.

(53:30):
Will he have commercials?

Speaker 6 (53:31):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (53:32):
I think Matariki show. Will it go to six or
till five? Six?

Speaker 4 (53:35):
Ge?

Speaker 2 (53:36):
Long shift? Wow, my day a mid dawn was always
six hours. Boy, it's a long shift today. Cheapest Creeper's
comes about three quickly on money halfway in you've got
to relaunch all your topics. Now where were going to
go from here? But God, he's the man for it.
Text if you want to also to But we are
talking body Tyler and Sola And does he rugby League

(53:58):
on tonight?

Speaker 6 (53:58):
Dan?

Speaker 2 (53:58):
Oh, yep, Joe, I'll watch the Woman's League that starts
at ten? Does it? Most watched General, most watched State
of Origin ever last night it was unbelievable to see that.
You might want to talk about that, Lear Martin Jeepest Creepers.
It seems though Bonnie Tyler's dairy farm was in Topol.
That's according to someone that sent me through that, and
I do a bit of a quick google. I think
that's probably right. I've never heard it referred to as

(54:21):
the female Rod Stewart, but there you go. I think
that's more for looks rather than the song content. But
she has performed a number of times in New Zealand,
and no doubt some of you out there have had
some sort of oh yes, it looks like she has
got a farm in Topol, a top or rape player.
Shewns a farm which is currently leased out, as well
as a small shop in the town. It's a shame

(54:42):
it says that farmers are special with lots of lot
of trees as in vestment. When I eventually retire, I
hope to go visit visit three times from that article.
So there we go away one hundred and eighty ten
eighty nine nine to de text. Be in touch if
you want to email or anything else you want to.
So you've got any breaking news, let us know do
do Marcus? Can you please change your theme song to

(55:05):
the AI one you sang last night? It sounded great.
I really thought you were singing it. Great response from that,
by the way, and mixed response from the situation. Actually,
most response has been fairly positive about the car. It
was just interesting after the all back test. Some people
weren't happy about it. I've never heard people since it
open and been unhappy about where it's been. Pot But

(55:26):
you might want to mention that you got a solo
panel question to Jan have you very good?

Speaker 4 (55:32):
Thing?

Speaker 2 (55:32):
Is Jane good?

Speaker 15 (55:34):
Nice and warm?

Speaker 7 (55:34):
When you were it's tropical?

Speaker 1 (55:37):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (55:38):
Lastly about zero degrees really every cold? Yeah, it has
been cold, terrible, terrible time for school holidays. You've got
kids and it's freezing. What are supposed to do with them?
Saw them out.

Speaker 15 (55:51):
You've got to have it door, that's right.

Speaker 2 (55:54):
But you know, have you ever, Jane, have you ever
played risk?

Speaker 4 (55:57):
No?

Speaker 9 (55:58):
What is this?

Speaker 2 (55:59):
It is the most boring board game that has ever
been invented. And you try and conquer other cunt trees
and you have battles with dice and if you take
over that country, you move your troops there and the
next go they take it back. And it goes endlessly
and the kids love it and the adults cannot wait

(56:20):
for it to stop. Absolutely endless. But anyway, that's my
holidays is endless games of risk.

Speaker 15 (56:28):
We used to spend holidays playing Monopoly.

Speaker 2 (56:32):
Yes, am, I don't love Theopoly, but I'd pick it
over risk anytime of the day. Yes, did you do
the rule with free parking when you took everything? When
you landed on it?

Speaker 15 (56:47):
I remember always ended up in jail.

Speaker 4 (56:51):
Did you.

Speaker 15 (56:54):
My brotherhood tie up with my houses in sections?

Speaker 2 (56:58):
And you know, because you couldn't collec rent when you're
in jail, could you?

Speaker 15 (57:04):
I don't think so.

Speaker 2 (57:05):
No, I think jails. I think exturely monopoly jail is
quite a good place to be because you just cruise
their antake your and you're not landing on any price.
I think jail's a bit of a holiday.

Speaker 15 (57:16):
Oh, such a long time ago. They fifty years ago.
Since ma it's.

Speaker 2 (57:25):
Well, I think. I think if you're in jail in
the early rounds, it's not too good because that's when
all the property has been sold. But later on the
thing you just go there and hide and click your
rent and not risk lending on Mayfair, and it's quite advantageous.

Speaker 11 (57:39):
I think.

Speaker 15 (57:40):
I just remember all the fighting and someone up ending
the board.

Speaker 2 (57:45):
Yeah, that's a popular strategy. They'll tip the board one everyone,
when you when are you going solo?

Speaker 9 (57:56):
Jen?

Speaker 2 (57:56):
What's Jen? Short for?

Speaker 9 (57:59):
I don't know?

Speaker 6 (58:00):
To shoot?

Speaker 2 (58:01):
It's a very short name for a name, that's is
it not shortened? Wow? Short name?

Speaker 12 (58:08):
Yes?

Speaker 15 (58:08):
Good day. I hate to have a name that you
have to learn to spell as her child and can't
remember how to spell it.

Speaker 2 (58:19):
That fear hasn't panned out for.

Speaker 9 (58:21):
You, has it?

Speaker 5 (58:23):
No?

Speaker 15 (58:24):
You haven't had your daughter yet, have you.

Speaker 2 (58:28):
I'll keep your post name was Charlotte? Is your predication?

Speaker 15 (58:35):
Charlotte?

Speaker 2 (58:36):
When she when she you?

Speaker 15 (58:38):
One day, I'll teach you how to get pregnant and
then you can Heather. She's waiting.

Speaker 2 (58:47):
Let me over the phone.

Speaker 15 (58:49):
Yes, oh, yes, I'll teach you. I've told other people
on here, and it's very easy, very easy to get
pregnant my way. But anyway, I was going.

Speaker 2 (59:01):
To I'm intrigued about that. Jan we're your boundaries. Hi, Peter,
it's Marcus. Welcome Marcus.

Speaker 4 (59:11):
How are you good? Thanks Peter, that's good. Just before
I talk about what my experience of solar panels, what
was that last conversation about what was that lady ringing for?

Speaker 2 (59:22):
I can't remember. Oh, I just got to about solar.

Speaker 4 (59:24):
Yeah, did you actually talk about solar.

Speaker 2 (59:27):
No, she started talking about she's she said she's gonna
teach me how to get pregnant.

Speaker 4 (59:32):
Okay, okay, which I thought was I'm sure.

Speaker 2 (59:35):
Which I thought was probably a surprising turn of the conversation.

Speaker 4 (59:40):
Yeah, maybe I just you know, we'll get distracted, Marcus.
I got a story for you. Great. We I was
installing solar panels on a house that I built, and
there was one that was full of cracks and the
solar and sawers said, this is no good. We'll have
to go back and get a warranty. And when I
went back to the to the to the people that

(01:00:01):
supplied that. They said, no, that was broken by you.
So instead of getting an argument, I just sort of
stuff i' go with twenty five solar panels twenty six
and the younger Prinus said to me, he said, let's
do the right thing and recycle it. And I said,
that's a great idea. So we went down to little
Men in christ Church and diligently went in there, you know,

(01:00:23):
really thinking we're doing the right thing. And they said, oh,
solar panel, there's two dollars a kilo. Wow, dump and
weighed twenty kilos.

Speaker 11 (01:00:32):
We talked to the dump.

Speaker 2 (01:00:33):
Wow, what year was that?

Speaker 4 (01:00:35):
That was about six months ago?

Speaker 2 (01:00:37):
Oh, it's quite recent.

Speaker 6 (01:00:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:00:39):
And they're heavy. Are there twenty kilos each?

Speaker 7 (01:00:41):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:00:41):
The ones that we had were twenty kilos.

Speaker 2 (01:00:43):
It's half a half a ton.

Speaker 4 (01:00:45):
Yeah. When I when I spoke to the lady in
the office, she said, all solar panel. I had to
call Auckland for that one for a price, And I
said a prize to see how much I get And
then she was like, no, no, just how much you
pay off.

Speaker 2 (01:01:00):
Why they're so heavy?

Speaker 4 (01:01:01):
Yeah, they're actually defectively heavy. They're just they're just not
There must be a fair been in there that they
had to sort of decipher, you know, or you know,
you know, breakdown.

Speaker 2 (01:01:12):
Well, just take it home. Why did just take it
back home and put it in the bin? You guys
always have your skippin.

Speaker 4 (01:01:17):
There was another option, but I sort of thought, well,
I would have made a mess by breaking it up.
So interesting, isn't it?

Speaker 2 (01:01:25):
Yeah? Really interesting? Did it work out for your solos
as a house you built, built for yourself?

Speaker 4 (01:01:31):
You know, I built a minor dwelling. Unfortunately it was
it was just before the government brought out that new
law seveny square meter law, and so I had to
go through the council. Ah, unbelievable, and the hoops they
made me jump through the neighbors and all that. But anyway,
I got there in the end. But I've got solar

(01:01:51):
panels alone, how on the house I live in, And
that's that's that's doing really well. Like last month and
the month of May, I paid nineteen dollars and this
month I paid one hundred and fifteen dollars for the
month just gone. And I'm a family of six with
four kids.

Speaker 2 (01:02:08):
And was it thirty grand to install?

Speaker 4 (01:02:12):
Yeah? About that?

Speaker 2 (01:02:14):
Yeah, yeah, it seems to be the cost. Thanks, Peter.
Nice to hear from your twenty eight to eighteen away
from ten hold your horse a Simon with your sown
back at a bit fifteen to ten Simon, it's Marcus,
good evening, good even Marcus.

Speaker 8 (01:02:26):
Great to talk to you. Hey, hello to you all
and all the fantastic listeners and that on your program.
I'd like to say, like Bonnie Tylers did kind of
start off as a female, Rochester was the first song
that's a hie because she had that the voice and
the hair. Yeah, but she worked with Jim Jim Steinman

(01:02:48):
and made that song total eclipse with the heart, and
that almost really eclipsed whatever Rod really did.

Speaker 2 (01:02:55):
I remember when that first came out on Ready to Roll,
it was like, and you could tell straight away it
was a transformative song because it was just so epic,
the video and everything. It just seemed it just seemed
like we all knew it was commercial, and.

Speaker 8 (01:03:10):
It was, but it was big well on the same
age as you, Marcus. When I was younger, I went
over my head, But as I got older, I learned
to appreciate it a bit more.

Speaker 2 (01:03:21):
I don't know that I've delved too hard into the
lyrics it's.

Speaker 14 (01:03:24):
Just it's just.

Speaker 8 (01:03:27):
Sparks really needs you tonight. And you were talking about
the Game of Risk so really boring before.

Speaker 2 (01:03:36):
I'm not wrong, No, no, you're not.

Speaker 8 (01:03:39):
You said the Game of Risk was one of the
most boring broadcasts ever. Yeah, but I was thinking of
that song The Man on the Moon by r M.
And they said, let's play Twister, Let's play Risk. That's right,
was the second most boring game in the world as well,
because I.

Speaker 2 (01:03:57):
Think the trouble with I think the trouble with Twister
it always sound a lot more exciting than it isn't
actually when you play it, it's just a bit awkward,
a little bit lame.

Speaker 8 (01:04:04):
And I remember you from like it would have been
like thirty something years ago, nearly now. Didn't you have
a show television show of Ali Mao and Simon Dellow
and you were on television like when you were in
your twenties.

Speaker 2 (01:04:18):
I can't remember, Simon, Yeah, must come. I can't remember.
I'm not I'm not into personal nostalgia. It's till it's
till too.

Speaker 14 (01:04:30):
Oh.

Speaker 8 (01:04:31):
Well, anyway, well, thank you for your fantastic entertainment. And
so what part of the country are you in I'm
in Taranaki and White.

Speaker 2 (01:04:40):
Yeah, one of my favorite places in the world.

Speaker 8 (01:04:43):
It is mine now. I wouldn't want to go anywhere
to stay with this or this weather.

Speaker 4 (01:04:47):
No.

Speaker 2 (01:04:48):
What a special place you think, your Marcus, What a
special place. Nice to hear from your Simon. How's your
maths marks? I just got from a cousin, Mark, who
was flying back to city this year. Was a seventh
trip back toies of this year to visit our grandma,
who at ninety two, is not well. Each time he's
returned to Sidney, he's taken twenty five blocks of Whitnaga's

(01:05:09):
banana carible, the only flavor they can't get over there.
He'll wipe out five blocks on his own and then
on sell the rest at thirteen bucks a block to family,
friends and workmates. How much do you think he's made
from twenty blocks per trip at thirteen bucks each? And
what's his profit margin? Each Block's eight dollars here, so
he's making five bucks a block. So he's making a

(01:05:31):
one hundred bucks a trip, I would say, and he's
making seven hundred dollars would be my take on that.
I wasn't impressed. Marcus, Jan's going to teach you in
the nation about the birds and the bees. Hilarious that's
made by night cheers, Chris. I just, I mean, the
disturbing thing about that phone call was she said that

(01:05:53):
your daughter's name is going to be Charlotte. Right now.
As much as I love children, there is no plan
for another child. So I was just worried people would
be listening and thinking, oh, gosh, I've missed the fact
that that you'd said that you're gonna have another child.

(01:06:13):
I haven't said we're gonna have another child, because we're
not gonna have another child, certainly at the stage. I
think it'd be highly unlikely. So yeah, that's that was
the because you know, somebody here on the right thing.
What do I miss here for the super fans, g
is you know, know the two kids enough at this
stage because I like to start with a parenting which
is full late, you know, comparatively late. So yeah, that's
that's the situation. So you're not missing anything there. And

(01:06:38):
I don't necessarily know that. I don't necessarily know that.
I don't know what Jen has to offer about I
think the reason when I have another child is not
is because that two's enough and the Where am I
going with this? Anyway? But it's a very kind offer,
Jan But maybe you should wait until people ask for

(01:07:00):
your advice before you offer it. That would be my
that would be my sugence. She writes letters and tells
me these sorts of things. But anyway, Oh, eight twenty
nineteen ninety Ticks died away from ten Get in touch,
Philfrid come through eight hundred and eighty ten eighty justic
retell that Bonnie Tyler has died at seventy six. It's

(01:07:20):
just been announced about an hour ago. We will play
We will play her songs tonight. We'll probably play three
of them, you know. I imagine we're hearing a lot
of her playing over the weekend also, and I imagine
the three will be playing will be I think they'll
select themselves. Actually, we'll probably play total clips of the
Heart and Holding Out for a Hero and one other
to be decided nine from ten.

Speaker 3 (01:07:43):
On.

Speaker 2 (01:07:44):
Of course, the other song was single, but it's a Heartache,
which was not Jim Steinmann's song. I don't even know
who did It's a Heartache. First, I think it might
be Bonnie Tyler. Then Rod Steard. I've got that one right, oh,
Juice Newton did. What a great name that was always
Juice Newton always loved that as a name. Anyway, be
in touch if you want to eight hundred eighty to

(01:08:04):
ten eighty and nine nine text my name is Marcus,
welcome him twelve. Anything else you want to talk about,
that's fine. What of you have you got, that's that's something.
We're talking solar and matarik and anything else that you
want to talk about. And the stadium in christ Church.

(01:08:26):
I Rod Stewart did It's a Heartache much much more recently.
It was two thousand and six album. But divery very well.
I've better recheck that. Actually, I've better refect check all
of that. But do come through if you want to talk.
My name as Marcus welcome eight hundred and eighty ten
eighty nine text It's a Heartache as a song recorded
by Welshinger. Bonnie Tyler topped the charts nineteen seventy eight,

(01:08:49):
released at the same time as Juz Student and Ronnie Specter's.
One of the first recordings Tyler made following a sturgical
procedures remove nodules from her vocal folds. The procedure left
her with an unusually husky voice, like I'm luckier he
should start singing. The release had music critics comparing a

(01:09:12):
voice to Rod Stewart's and there we go. Just yout
and covered it, and there we go. That's a situation.
That's all you need to know. But if you want
to talk on air, brilliant eight hundred and eighty eight
and nine ninety de text Now sorry, I'm late to

(01:09:34):
the show this evening. I got sidetrack listening to Rush.
I saw Bonnie tayanneer Queen's tablau manly went to see
the Alan Parsons project. He was, here's some good songs
Bury from one Matte. So yeah, I think it would
be at the vineyard down the road, wouldn't it. But yeah,
Rush of course too. One of the great drummers, ah

(01:09:55):
Neil piet Is he the greatest drummer every I think
it's what they say. But we are celebrating Bonnie Tyler
Tonight died at seventy six. Hello, what so nice to
hear that you are listening. By the way, too, I
can realize that if this isn't interesting when you realize
that nineteen seventy two and twenty twenty six are as

(01:10:17):
far apart as nineteen seventy two and nineteen eighteen. It's
pretty staggering, isn't it, Because in nineteen seventy two nineteen
eighteen seemed like it was back in the black and
white days, which it probably was. I'm trying to get
updates for what's happening in wild Or, but I'm not
seeing much. But then again, and I hate to say this,

(01:10:37):
but the way the world is now, I don't know
how we would know that things aren't good there. Because
the media is so contracted so Nisia in big cities,
the stories don't happen. But I'm doing what I can
on Facebook pages and stuff to bring that information to you.
I just haven't got any more information currently. But the
weather was they were really concerned about the weather, and
the police are door knocking the streets to be concerned

(01:10:59):
of a corpou and sturdy ironically Creating's welcome heed to twelve.
One them is Marcus, get your calls through if you
want to work a good evening high Worrick, It's Marcus.

We've had a little bit of rain up here for
the last a day and a half. Were you I'm and.

Speaker 2 (01:11:21):
Wirral Oh good, nice, Okay, tell me more.

Speaker 9 (01:11:27):
We're just don from the Z station down Kopee Road,
which is down nearer the river. It's starting to cross
the road. The river mouth is open. But what's been
the problem at the moment is has been so much
rain and the waves coming in to meet the river
at about three to four meters high, so that's holding

(01:11:48):
a bit of the water back. Okay, there's been a
lot of rain up up in the ranges and high
tis not meant to be till about one o'crop, so
they're just watching that all filtered back through. But there
are some evacuations going on to the warmer more hall
of people Needs and the police are going around monitoring

(01:12:12):
and making sure everyone's good.

Speaker 2 (01:12:13):
I heard, I heard. Corpora Road and Sturdy Street were
the first ones where they and Corpu is the run
that comes right down the side of the wider river,
is it? And Sturdy just perpendicular there?

Speaker 9 (01:12:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:12:24):
Hey, hey Warwick with the with the bar that's at
the river mouth. Does the river and flood clear that
out or is that cleared out by builder? What is
that just a natural thing that comes and goes, is.

Speaker 9 (01:12:35):
It, Yes, But there's a good crew that keep an
eye on it and look after it, and they'll get
in there when they need to and get it cleared again.

Speaker 2 (01:12:44):
Okay. But but the fact that it's cleared means it's
more prone to flooding now because the waves charge up
the river more and hold the water back.

Speaker 9 (01:12:52):
Is that right, No, it's only just at the moment
because the waves that we've got out there are quite high,
higher than normal. When it's open, it just it's like
the bar flood being fulled. Just let's all that build
up go.

Speaker 2 (01:13:08):
Okay. Okay. So actually, so it is open at the moment, though,
is it or not?

Speaker 11 (01:13:14):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:13:14):
It is, okay, But because I'm thinking as a layman,
will that being opened it would mean the water can
flow uneasier. But you're saying that the wind and normally
that would be the case. But the wind and tied
today mean that that's not quite the case exactly.

Speaker 9 (01:13:27):
Because beautiful Sutherly browing those waves back up.

Speaker 2 (01:13:31):
Okay, So it's an unlucky set of circumstances really. With that,
the fact that the wind's coming exactly the wrong direction
to get.

Speaker 9 (01:13:37):
Okay, Yeah, one hundred and thirty mills of rain which
is still hanging around.

Speaker 2 (01:13:44):
Have you can you see the river from where you are?

Speaker 9 (01:13:46):
No, I can't. We're about five minutes away, okay.

Speaker 2 (01:13:50):
And you don't know if it's how far it is
from reaching the banks or it has breached out already.

Speaker 9 (01:13:57):
It has come across the road. So that will be coming.
It will be being held up and coming back up
tofu Road which is coming up and around the river bank.

Speaker 2 (01:14:06):
Okay.

Speaker 9 (01:14:07):
So the look on out those houses at the T
Street and around here as well.

Speaker 2 (01:14:13):
So at La after the when was the last big flood?
Was that just last year.

Speaker 9 (01:14:18):
A couple of years ago now when the the bar
was totally blocked and it came right up Okay?

Speaker 2 (01:14:28):
And have they managed Have they done any flood remediation
work since then with flood banks or anything.

Speaker 9 (01:14:33):
They've done a lot of work actually, and they've got
the new there's a new cause way type thing I
can't remember the right word. That they're getting ready to
finish that off. And there's a lot of things being
looked at.

Speaker 7 (01:14:47):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:14:48):
Well, I'll tell you what what what's the meal like?
He's always highly visible on the radio doing interviews and stuff.
Has he got the has he got the town's hard
at stake? He seems all right?

Speaker 9 (01:14:56):
Is he he does? He's He's a great family man,
a good granddad. He's one of the good guys.

Speaker 2 (01:15:04):
He always seems to be you know, you always is
always fighting the vape shops or you know, he's quite
for a small town mayor. He's really giving you guys
a nationwide voice. I've always thought, well.

Speaker 9 (01:15:15):
He's trying his best. He remembers when we had three
butcheries in town and all sorts of other shops. Here
was a very busy place.

Speaker 2 (01:15:23):
Yeah, okay, so and it's still raining. I mean it's
probably up the river that it's consumed, but it's still
raining in the town at the moment.

Speaker 9 (01:15:31):
In town, lots of wind paws down for a few houses.

Speaker 2 (01:15:35):
Okay, and just out of interest, arrack, out of interest, Warwick.
Do you have your own do you get a German
z sorry gisbone z B or napier zed by or
if you've got your own transmitter, where where do you
pick up the radio station on.

Speaker 9 (01:15:54):
I'm honestly not sure.

Speaker 2 (01:15:55):
Okay, No, I don't know either. I've always wondered about that.

Speaker 9 (01:15:58):
Yeah, we get to ZB very well.

Speaker 2 (01:16:00):
Okay, good look, Thank you so much for the update, Warwick.
I do appreciate that that's a situation. White Eye will
be giving you updates as well. But you get on
Google Maps and there's a big bar in front of
the river which is not there at the moment, but
that's normally a good thing, but this instance, the water's
coming up there as well, so I'll be looking at
all the websites there's more information, but I would imagine
what it's like with reporters before a long weekend. It's

(01:16:22):
not a good scenario because none will be there, so
they'll just be looking at Facebook to see what's on.
But yes, as I've at eight forty one hour reporting
that floodwater was becoming to come across Corpora Road and
Sturdy Street. So that's the situation. If you've got any
more information about that, let us know. Oh eight hundred
and eighty todaighty the other news to Bonny Tyler has died.

(01:16:43):
We will play the music tonight. Two probably played three
of the songs. I would imagine with that very problematic
music video. When you say that music video was problematic,
I would say so I don't think she was into it.
I think the director made it sort of slightly more
sketchy because I think it was a sort of a
it was a a teacher at a boys school and

(01:17:04):
fantasy I think, and the choir boy throwing the dove
into the ear or remember apparently she stormed off the set.
But anyway, it worked and got the soul where it
needed to get. And that's the eighties for it was
all pretty kind of those videos were pretty kind of
over the top. But man, that one really was cheap.
But her video, and that wouldn't have been her choice.

(01:17:25):
There'd be the music company. I don't think that. I
don't think the video even had a plot. It was
just kind of it was just out there. Someone said
it was like the Children of the Village of the Damned.
It says the video contains all the key elements of
the most overblown and fancibule decade of music. And they've
compared it to Sweet Child of Mind and say that's

(01:17:47):
probably right. And Bonnie Tyler herself said she never is
twenty nine years old, she's still can't explain the video. Yeah,
love it always good anyway, that's me. If you want
to talk on air. That's the plan for tonight, Sola
Bonnie Tyler to Kaha Stadium, anything else, that's what we've
gotten planned for you tonight. And music. Well, but once
once I start playing the music, the talk meaco stop.

(01:18:09):
So I'll just work out there, might play the last Dame.
I might play that in this hour. I'm pretty much
in a holiday mode Marcus for Hawks, Bay Roads and
weather issues in almost real time. The Facebook group called
HB State Higway Issues, which is administered by Exel Alexander

from the Lake. Warnicas seen to after the final reshearsal
of That Bloody Woman The Rock Opera That is the
story of Kate Shepherd. The Rock Opera. New Zealand didn't
know it needed until it got it full house for
opening night tomorrow. Kirkah who's written that? Because that sounds great.

(01:20:35):
And I'll tell you something. Since I've got the talking
stick the last couple of years, I've gone to show
Quest and I think there's skills from Warnica and and
a lot of the people in there of show Quest
have done stories about Kate Shepard, so it seems though
it's kind of top of mind for people. That sounds brilliant. Anyway,

(01:20:55):
thanks for that, and if it goes well for you
tomorrow night. So there we go. I never knew that
was a thing, So there we go. That's something that
would be sold out. But yeah, I don't know what
that of. That Bloody Woman. That Bloody Woman a twenty
fifteen punk rock musical written by Luke de Somer and
Gregory Cooper. I know Luke de Somer. Yeah, he's impressive. Okay,

(01:21:21):
that's good to know. I'd met him when he was
down in in Vicago doing some directing some musical there
about fifteen years ago. It was very impressed with him.
Oh that's great, Thank you for that information. Brilliant. That's
what I need to know. That's the information I need.
It that's brilliant. I'm happy to hear that. Now other stuff, Oh,
Marcus hb Civil Defensive Emergency alert for White evacuations. Could

(01:21:44):
someone please send me what that and maybe you could
do that Warwick, if you beg your pardon, I've got
I've got an email. How'd you get it? Don Okay?
So this is the emergency. A look, I worry about
wide Over is such a beautiful town there on the
bend in the river, but we know bends and rivers
are vulnerable. Although I've always wondered why bail Kluth is

(01:22:06):
not more prone, And last time I spent some time
there last week it was looking pretty good. So bends
in the river can work. The following efmgency mobile alert
has been sent to Wido. Evacuate now. If you are
living in a low lying area any of the White
Hour River, including houses between Outram Street, Grant Street and
Corpus Street and Nepatu Street. Evacuate to higher ground or inland.

(01:22:30):
People in the area must leave now. Take essential items
and pets with you. If lives are in danger, dull
one one one. Avoid traveling through flood water if possible.
Stat of flooded area and advised by officials organized to
stay with friends or familyfure Candle Guy to go to
wide Oer War Memorial Hall. A civil defense center will

(01:22:51):
be provided established their to provide assistance. This is serious flooding.
There are serious flooding and low lying areas of wild
ore from the wide Hora River. And if you're out there,
Craig Little and I want to give us a holo two.
Imagine you'll be busy. But but look, I'm just going
to go back and read that again as I'm looking
at the roads, so I can tell you exactly where

(01:23:14):
it is. Okay, So this is the we have to
google between two things houses between Outrim Street, Grant Street,
Corpou and Upper two Outrim and Grant. I've got too
many damned things open hold your horses, people. Oh I've
just clicked closed the ones I wanted. So bear with me.

Speaker 7 (01:23:30):
People.

Speaker 2 (01:23:30):
I've try and get this more information up for you.
And if you've got if you've got some more information,
or if you're in possession of more information, let me know.
So Upper two is the one that comes alongside parallel
with Corpoo the whole way. You'll know that. Of course,
if you're living there, you know. Unfortunately I can't see
Outram and Grant at this stage, but I'll do it like, oh,
Grant Streets the first one that goes parallel, that goes

(01:23:53):
parallel to that goes perpredicted corporate. But anyway, if you
are wanting more information, if you are a situation, if
you are someone that needs help, let us know if
you can ring us. But that's a situation, evacuate the
higher ground is what they're saying, and Di'll triple one
if you're have got a problem or out Oatram Street

(01:24:15):
is the one that goes to the square, So that's
kind of up near the bend in the river, which
is logical of that's where the water is going to
flood over too. So that's the situation I've got for
you at twenty four pH. By the way, there's been
another warning also there is snow falling on the desert road.
It's going to be from ten pm to three am

(01:24:36):
where it's raining at the moment, but the rain may
turn to snow for a time, with one to two
centimeters settling on the road above nine hundred meters. This
means it's probably cold and wet, but most of all cold.
It's a situation there. So that's all the information I've
got for you. Twenty five past ten. If you want
to talk on air, that's the plan. Anything goes Hittle twelve.
You want to talk about Bonne Tyler also in that video,

(01:24:59):
please be in touch as you'd being wide or a
clear signal from Napier twelve seventy eight am clear line
of sight across the water Gisbon nine four five am
clear on the north side of Mahia facing Gussie. I'll
try and get that FM. You need to get that
sorted and thanks that heads up on HB State highway issues?
Is it a face Facebook? HB State Highway issues? But

(01:25:20):
need your call started. I've been too relaxed on the
calls tonight. I haven't really given you a strong directions
about what to talk about. But that's fine. But if
you have got something that you feel that it's going
to set the world on fire, let's be hearing from you.
I don't know what you're going to do to set
the world on fire. HB State Highway issues.

Speaker 4 (01:25:37):
HB.

Speaker 2 (01:25:37):
I'm just says anything more on that state highway issues?
Oh yep, so got to I've got it's a private
group I've got to join it always the way, isn't it.

Speaker 15 (01:25:51):
Do to do?

Speaker 2 (01:25:53):
Meet Loaf and Bonnie Tyler nineteen ninety three. I have
their cassette tape Heaven and Hell. It's great listening. Hello,
I have family and wide ho from what they have said,
it's barely flooded in some areas. River is very high,
picnic table and chairs on the riverfront are underwater. Very
hard to get updates. Just hope everyone is okay. Someone

(01:26:15):
said half a ton. Calm down, mate, wu didn't he
say there's twenty five solar panels of twenty kilograms each.
That's five hundred kilograms exactly half a ton? But yep,
do be in touch if you want to twenty seven
pass ten monum, is Marcus welcome? And anything else you
want to talk about or say or do. I am
feeling there's a lot going on tonight with the flooding
and wide ore and bombing of Iran, although there's not

(01:26:39):
the media focus on that I thought there would have been.
I'm not seeing much information reported, so I don't know
if it hasn't really escalated to those old levels or
it's still kind of.

Speaker 6 (01:26:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:26:50):
The Trump well, the US forces have had one hundred
and seventy targets over two nights, and Iran's doing retautory
strikes on bah Rain, Kuwait and Qatar us Basis. So
it does seem to be going. So there we go.

Speaker 11 (01:27:03):
That's that.

Speaker 2 (01:27:04):
Brett's Marcus, welcome screvening.

Speaker 11 (01:27:08):
These Chinese shooting off a rocket out of the submarine.

Speaker 2 (01:27:14):
I know it came from a submarine. That's interesting.

Speaker 11 (01:27:16):
Yeah, it was from the submarine. And anyway, that's the
first time they've done anything like that. But here, Oh no,
they're done earlier on They're six months ago, didn't they.

Speaker 2 (01:27:29):
I'm not, I'm not. I'm not aware of that. I
know they had a ship down on the test when
we went aware of earlier. I think that they were
doing some tests and they and the planes in New
Zealand's planes flying in Australia changed their course. But they
weren't tests. I think they're a different thing. I think
they were just they weren't as serious as this particular warhead.

Speaker 11 (01:27:48):
They must think that we're pretty clever shooting rockets off
from old Nick's head there.

Speaker 2 (01:27:56):
I don't know, does that make us a target?

Speaker 16 (01:27:59):
I don't know.

Speaker 11 (01:28:00):
I don't know how many were shot off. They must
think we're pretty clever because we're the only ones down
here shooting the rockets really well.

Speaker 2 (01:28:09):
The second biggest rocket company in the world now after
Musk's crowd.

Speaker 9 (01:28:13):
I think, yeah, well, you.

Speaker 11 (01:28:18):
Know, we're shooting rockets off left, right, center. They're thinking
all these guys are pretty onto it. I don't know.
I would be thinking that you never know what the
Chinese brain thinks what's going on, and that.

Speaker 2 (01:28:32):
I don't think we can generalize about the Chinese brain
in one brain. But you know, I hear what you're saying.
But yeah, I have I have not known really how
to react to that situation. It's it's been interesting to
see some of the leaders of the Pacific Nations and
their comments on it, because they've said that they're greater
worriers is climate change, obviously, but they still themselves have
reconcerned because they were given no warning, which seems to
be that the the worldwide polite thing to do.

Speaker 11 (01:28:56):
Yeah, and I hear what. We've got Australia and CG
on our team, so I don't I don't think that's
going to scare them.

Speaker 2 (01:29:08):
It's what I thought as well. Yeah, but Fiji, but
of course Fiji have provided soldiers all around them. I
think Fiji and peacekeeping troops have been Yeah, yeah, I
would want to disparage the Fijian soldiers because I think
they've had a great record around the world of peacekeeping duty.
So yeah, I just need to put that there for
that point also, But nice to talk to you. Thanks
so much for that. Get in touch if you want

(01:29:28):
to be on on the radio eight d eighty ten
eighty before the Long Weekend. I'll look forward to your contribution.
By the way, too, have her album the album that
released that involved total clips of the heart, which she
never really understood what the song was about. She's always
been honest about that. The album, Fastened the Speed of
Night also included a very spirited cover of John fogg

(01:29:52):
Andy's have You Ever Seen the Rain? So that's a situation.
That's when she was at a commercial peak then came
out with Holding Out for a Hero. So yeah, that's
a situation. We will play some of that tonight if
you want to talk on air to a You've got
information about why do I get in touch? And anything
you want to talk about eight hundred and eighty eight ten.

(01:30:12):
We're talking about Sola and Takaha. If you've got some
good plans for Matariki, let me know what those are. Marcus.
The new Chicken store opened late afternoon in Dunedin today.
I'd never heard of this your restaurant, Chane Previously, according
to the ODT, people were queuing outside this morning, only
be disappointed with the delay in the opening. It did

(01:30:33):
open today eventually, cheers Chris. Yeah, I don't know about
that chicking. I'm going I'll tell you something what I
know about chicken, and I'm going to say this, and
I've been waiting for a long time to say this, right,
So this is my take on chicken. Because we are
on the chicken age, and when the archaeologists dig up
the bones, there will be when they dig through the

(01:30:55):
core sample, the era we live in at the moment
would just be a pile of chicken bones. Because we're
mad for chicken. It's always seemed to eat and there
seems to be a golden age of takeaway chicken. Now
I've never tried chicken to my knowledge, I've never heard
of it, or maybe I have. Is it the halal one? Anyway,
so it's a thing and it's spreading quite quickly. I

(01:31:17):
don't know where it comes from. But here's what I
want to say about chicken. And a lot of people
ask about Popeyes and KFC. In my mind, the best
cooked chicken you can buy out is Nandos. I think
it feels healthier and is delicious. And the sad thing
was is that Dunedin had a Nandos and it lasted

(01:31:40):
not very long at all. So while they'd be excited
about chicken, I've got an idea they should have just
supported nandos. So yes, chicken is from Dubai, an Indian
Arabian fast food restaurant that serves foods he'd got in
Dubai Uae specialize in fried chicken. Well, you see, I
think you're better off with the with the nandos. I
think it's and I don't know what's gone wrong with

(01:32:01):
a nandos, but it seems as though the people who
have the French have a trouble with it. But I
just think it's delicious. Shame it's not in vocardial. I
think the dairy farmers would love it. I think I'll
go gangbusters, and to shame Dunedin couldn't make it work,
But there we go. It did open in Dunedin chicking.
I'll be up in to Needen in the weekend so

(01:32:21):
we'll check it out. But I'd rather go to Nandos.
So yes, please discuss, agree or disagree Perry Perry sauce
very good. Now it's twenty six away from eleven min namers. Marcus,
welcome he or twelve o'clock and anything goes here to
the very end. So it's a big menu, the chicken one.
None of it looks that good. It all looks. I

(01:32:43):
mean the trouble that it looks. There's more crispy coating
than there is chicken. And the thing about chicken you
soon discover is that chicken itself is tasteless. It's only
the outside coating that makes it any good. So why
bother Marcus? We have a chicken and gisbon lucky. If
they have ten people a day go there, huge KFC
town never going to do well either. There are some
towns in the KAFCA towns, aren't there in Vocargo's KFC

(01:33:06):
town honestly, the dairy farmers and the double cab uts,
there's always about ten of them outside. Wow, I think
after a day on the cups, that's what you want
you want, KFC. It just seems to be the farmers.
It seems to be a farmer's Friday treat. Anyway, that's
my views of takeaway chicken. I think Nandos is your
best bet. Always good little flag in the chicken that

(01:33:27):
you get. Don't even know what that's about. Twice a year,
that does me. Now, Oh we had it the last
we had a name. We went up there for the
women's football We played Switzerland and they held us to nil,
draw and suck the life out of the game. But
wasn't bad gap. That was when the Football World Cup
was in New Zealand. Any road closed in Wide Eye,
great question on it. Now this is about the time

(01:33:50):
I go on about how bad the NZTA website is
the world's clunkiest website. I've clicked on highway conditions now
I'm expanding it up and there is nothing in Wide
or there's just scheduled roadworks. There's nothing. Yeah, it's just
stop go stuff. I can't and see a warning on
the desert road there, although we've got one, so I

(01:34:11):
don't know what's happening there. So yeah, that's a situation there.
Twenty four or eleven if you've got to be a
part of the show and or not, we'll just keep listening.
But just to rephrase there, a couple of things have happened.
Bonnie Tyler has died at seventy five, and there is
flooding and wide oor an emergency alot has gone out.
You have to evacuate now. If you're near the wide

(01:34:32):
A River and house between Outram Street and Grant Streat
and Corporate and Upper Too Street, you need to get
to high ground. Friends or families, take your pets. If
you've got nowhere to go, go to the Memorial War
Memorial Hall. And I think people locally will know where
that is. I don't think I need to give that
address out, but that's the information I've got for you.
Twenty three away from ten Hittle twelve. Hello, Harriet's Marcus.

(01:34:55):
Welcome mate.

Speaker 6 (01:34:57):
How you doing good?

Speaker 16 (01:34:58):

Mad Chicken, and they.

Speaker 2 (01:35:15):
Really want what year we're talking late nineties or.

Speaker 6 (01:35:19):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, And I really thought it would take
up because it's really big in America.

Speaker 2 (01:35:26):
The Mad Chicken, I think it was delicious.

Speaker 6 (01:35:29):
It was made. It was all marinated and fruit juice,
then cooked over a charred grill and then you've got
three pieces or have a mini. You got some tortillas,
and you've been cellars in colster and net sauces. Then
you made up how you wanted to eat it.

Speaker 2 (01:35:47):
So why have we not gone mad for rotisserie or barbic?
Why have we gone mad for deep fried?

Speaker 4 (01:35:53):
Mark?

Speaker 6 (01:35:53):
I know, I mean KC is just a standard, isn't it.

Speaker 2 (01:35:56):
But and to be fair, Harry, what I've learned from
this show, right is that and take this as you wanted.
New Zealand New Zealand KFC love it. I hate it
with the greasiness of it. They reckon New Zealand KFC
is the best KFC in the world. They reckon the
KFC in America is dreadful. So so we're the way

(01:36:17):
we've got it is the best you liver get it,
but it's still sort of some ways you come away
from it. You got it's the bird of remorse. I reckon.

Speaker 6 (01:36:24):
Listen, when it first come to New Zealand, it was
the eleven heads of spices and you could actually see
the heads of spices.

Speaker 2 (01:36:33):
You can see the terear again and the Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:36:36):
But that's gone now.

Speaker 2 (01:36:39):
Yeah, it didn't last long at all, did it.

Speaker 6 (01:36:42):
No, it didn't. I was really surprised. And also I
was just going to say talking about music, and I
used to work for Jim Wilson. We used to manage
and book at the Hill Spring glaston and I used
to see myself, you know, I mean, but I called

(01:37:02):
myself Harry Sparkle, you know, and I got on, what
band were you in? Well, my first band was Harry
Sparkle and the Baby.

Speaker 2 (01:37:15):
Oh yeah, it's a good name, punk rock.

Speaker 6 (01:37:20):
When we're booking the Hills, the dudes would come down
and Jim would say to Dave Dobbin, I let Harry
sing a cup of songs, and I got the sing
with the swingers, and it was just like special guest
Harry Sparkle.

Speaker 2 (01:37:37):
Look, I don't know if i'd ever met Jim Wilson.
I know that, you know, he was a Facebook friend
of mine. I read a lot of his writing and
a lot of the stuff that was written about and
when he died, and you know, you know, I knew
a lot of the people that knew him really really well,
and everyone just raved about what a nice guy he was.
I mean, he's pretty much a South Island figure. There
wasn't he Christian, but he just seemed extraordinary.

Speaker 6 (01:37:57):
I mean, you know Edrew McLennan. Yes, I sing with
the Wizzards.

Speaker 2 (01:38:02):
Yes.

Speaker 6 (01:38:02):
Oh wow, Paul Keene yep. I think we've got seventy
three mutual friends.

Speaker 2 (01:38:10):
Oh, they'd be right.

Speaker 6 (01:38:11):
And I think I was your friends years ago. But
I think you might have cared me.

Speaker 2 (01:38:15):
I don't necessarily know that I have, but but it's
interesting you can. It's interesting on Facebook. You can tell
who you kind of know with mutual friends, can't you.

Speaker 6 (01:38:24):
Yeah, I definitely mate list, definitely.

Speaker 11 (01:38:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:38:28):
You're not sure about Facebook, it's kind of yeah. I
mean it's good. I had to say that, but it's good.
When people die, you get all the information and you
get all the the you know. Just a good friend
of mine recently has died. Who you probably don't know.
That is Roger Perry, who's the DJ right. Have you
been following some of his people?

Speaker 4 (01:38:47):
You know?

Speaker 2 (01:38:48):
Well, he was he was a really big Auckland Club
DJ three onwards and he died tragically, probably two weeks ago,
only sixty five. But just all the all the posts
of people talking about his history and stuff. It's been,
you know, it's been unbelievable how well Facebook works for plate,
for photo and and you know, testimonies. What do you

(01:39:10):
call it a funeral?

Speaker 14 (01:39:10):
You do?

Speaker 2 (01:39:11):
What's eulogies? It's been amazing stuff that they've written about him.

Speaker 11 (01:39:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:39:16):
Yeah, such a great place people can get on and
really put up photos and stuff. I found it really.
But what was amazing Jim Wilson was as cars he had,
as Volkswagens and style amazing.

Speaker 6 (01:39:27):
I mean one of them, the van at one Top
at the v dub shows, you know, six eight months
ago it won the whole show. But recently he optioned.
They all got optioned.

Speaker 2 (01:39:39):
Or yes, I saw that website the option and like
for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Speaker 6 (01:39:43):
Yeah, but I mean Kelly needs the money there, so.

Speaker 2 (01:39:46):
Yeah, I didn't know the circumstance, as I say, I
thought he was a friend, but probably it And where
are you? Where are you in it up? How are
you still in christ?

Speaker 7 (01:39:54):
Urge?

Speaker 6 (01:39:55):
You're still in christ?

Speaker 2 (01:39:57):
Going? All right? Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:39:58):
Yeah, I mean I'm aged now and the health is
no good. So you know, I go and see a
band every now and again, you know, once a month,
or go down the embatement. Yeah, because I still know
people that are playing.

Speaker 2 (01:40:11):
You know, but is there a young scene coming through?

Speaker 15 (01:40:14):
No?

Speaker 10 (01:40:14):
No, well I'm not that.

Speaker 6 (01:40:17):
I'm Bob. Who's that old bugger?

Speaker 2 (01:40:23):
Better run? Nice to talk, Harry, Thanks for that. Fifteen
to eleven, Marcus till twelve, get in touch if you
want to. Oh, Harry's gonna hate us playing playing Bonnie
Tyler anyway, Marcus wanting to know a Nanos. A few
years ago down at the Beehive, I believe Colin Damotu
has it gone? Marcus? I brought a pre cooked chicken

(01:40:44):
bet your handbag from Moscow Woollies for fifteen dollars. It
not only been any KFC, but I went back the
next day to tell the deli stuff how I enjoyed
at Bonus at last two days, not one meal. Now,
get in touch. You're going to talk Marcus till midnight.

(01:41:05):
You don't want the Nanoss all closed. They all seem
to close. It's a South African franchise, I think.

Speaker 14 (01:41:12):
So.

Speaker 2 (01:41:12):
I never thought the South Africans were into Chicken fourteen
to twelve, sorry, fourteen to eleven. And just to let
you know the two big news stories of tonight, if
you just chuned and Bonnie Tyler has died at seventy
five and wide or up, there has been an alert there.
That's the town halfway between Gisbone and Napier. There has

(01:41:34):
been the river has flooded and the town was so
badly flooded a year or two ago, so it's heartbreaking,
but it's happened again, and there has been learning people
need to evacuate from those and I can read the
areas out, but I think people will know because they
will have had the alert. But that's the situation there
thirteen to eleven. Now it's ted away from eleven o'clock

(01:41:58):
and be in touch if you want to be a
part of the show tonight. And it feels very much
like eve of a public holy as we crew even
of a publicly it also school holy anyway, so it's
everyone's on holiday mode. But now we've got the holiday
within the holiday, the nesting of the holidays. I thought
i'd be hearing I thought, I know I shouldn't say,
I thought, but I'll say I wouldn't have been surprised

(01:42:19):
if a lot of people wanted to ring up to
wex lyrically about Nando's Chicken because I am a super fan.
I don't know if there's many stores left around that.
There was one at Takapoona that when we were living
at the camping ground at Takapoo, used to go to
it quite often, and the guy that I sort of
became a bit of a mate to with too with,
and he was highly suggesting I start a franchising Verkagol

(01:42:40):
and it wouldn't have been a bad idea. But I
don't even think that one is there anymore. So, yeah,
there's all sorts of I don't know what the situation was.
I think the thing with franchise is sometimes you might
need to pay too much money to the people that
own the franchise. I don't know how it works. It
seems like a complicated model, isn't it. Franchising. So that's

(01:43:00):
one of the topics I had for you tonight. So
if you want to add to that, that's good if
you're a super fan. We're also talking about the Takaha
Stadium have not been quite as good at the Test
match with a five thousand extra septs and someone rang
up that was had some quite strong opinions about that.
So there's that. Also, now we're talking about there's very
strong rain up the country and there is flooding in

(01:43:22):
Wide Eye. If you've got more information about that, let
us know. So yeah, that's what I've got to say
from me to you people. So any of these things
if you want to talk on here. And we've got
the situation where Iran, I do a quick check on
Brent Crude because it's gone off there. Iran's bombing the
American bases, America's bombing fuel is high again. I'm looking

(01:43:45):
at the weekly tipe, I'm looking at the daily total,
and it's gone up from yesterday. It's now about seventy
nine cents or dollars or whatever a barrel is. People
are correct me, it's seventy nine dollars a barrel. But
not what bitcoin's doing. You don't you much about bitcoin?
Trump made a lot from that sort of stuff, but
everyone lost his shirt on it, which hardly seems fair,

(01:44:08):
does it. Yeah, Bitcoin's on a one year low, but
not in a five year loow. And that's all the
information I've got for you. If you want to talk
on here about this or anything else, I will played
Bonnie Tyler's and probably in the last hour I play
a cup of songs. So that's a promise. Six from
eleven Thursday feels like Friday. No road closures that I
can see. I think the South Island's going to get

(01:44:29):
good weather, which I'm looking for, although it has been
pretty sunge what do I call them bluebird days? A
lot of people going off to Matadiki FESTI I'll I've
got a problem. I tell you something. I don't want
to be negative about Mataiki because it's still a holiday
and it's that we've celebrated it this way recently. But yeah,

(01:44:50):
I don't like the fact that all the events I've
gone to, they're always flogging off those bloody plastic glow sticks,
which seem to me the most unsustainable things you could imagine.
I don't know what the liquids in them is, but
all that glow stuff that straight from China junk, it's
as bad as Thanksgiving stuff, those plastic buckets. It's as

(01:45:13):
bad as a junk we get for Christmas. It's as
bad as the junk we get for ester. I kind
of it was my hope, and that might have been
a naive hope that Mataliki could have been free of
the plastic tat. So I don't know who's driving that.
I know it's a nighttime festival. I think they normally
have it's about the stars and stuff like that. But yeah,
to me, it's not about they seem to have. They

(01:45:35):
seem to have kind of combined it with midwinter glow festivals.
I don't know if you've been to one of those.
We went up for a couple of ones in Queenstown
and you sort of they hang stuff from the trees,
but they were just that was just I mean, they
are terrible things, really, because kids are always quiet. It's
ten o'clock at nights, a well eight o'clock at nights,
the kids are tired and grizzly and nagging for glow sticks,

(01:45:56):
which no one ever wants, so it lasts. So yeah,
and that sort of glowstick stuff is sort of been
adopted into some of the Matariki festivals, which I think
is a mist because to me it doesn't seem to
be what it's about. Glow sticks and consumerism. So yeah,
that's me, and I don't want to be Debbie downer
on because you know, I quite like the mother leg

(01:46:17):
either time, the midyey time for reflection and all of that,
but I don't like all that. I don't like that
it's just become a festival in the dark with food
carts and pressure for children to buy plastic plastic glow sticks.
So there we go. That set my piece, and I
won't say anything else about that because I'm excited for
having the day off. So that's what I'm going to

(01:46:38):
say about that. Just to re capitulate the stories for tonight,
Bonnie Tyler has died at seventy five. She has been
unwealth for a while. She's been in a hospital in Portugal.
The other news story too is that and probably sorry,
a more important story. I should have done that first,
but that's just in wide hour, an alert has gone
out and they are evacuating the river. The river mouth.

(01:47:03):
The bar is not there. It's open the river mouth.
But that has meant that there is wind and tide
pushing up against the water coming out of the river.
Because it normally works like a plug hole, it drains it.
But just the way the weather and the conditions are
is that the water has been held up and held back,
so it has flooded. And I feel for that town

(01:47:25):
because it's a special town. Welcome people, and good evening
the final hour for me before we head off into Mataiki.
I hope it's good where you are. What you got
to say if you want to talk to me, feel free.
And I've enjoyed tonight. It's been very, very relaxed where
I am sitting. Not a lot going on, and that's
been fine for me. If you want to talk about
anything at all. We mentioned Nandos Chicken and Mataiki and

(01:47:48):
Takaha and wide and Bonnie Tyler. How good was State
of Origin last night? By the bye wow? They gleam Martin.
I mean there's a pen with players that made it
but cheap as it was good. Most watched State of
Origin there has been. I don't know when the tickets
go and sail for all clan. Actually, I don't know
if I want to say this. I want to sit
in Australia, I think, not an Arkland. But that's fine.

(01:48:09):
That's just me. You do you older me now, So
if you want to talk about any of those things,
that's the plan and we will play some Bodie Tyler tonight, Marcus.
They need to clear rivers out to the rivers can
flow out, yes, exactly, No, I know that fully. I
know that fully out of I know the how they
need to clear. It's occasionally too, when the waves come up,
it won't work like that. So no, I completely I'm

(01:48:31):
not saying that it was a criticism. So it's one
of those damned if you deemed, if you don't marks,
you gave out falshood from the road. So I'll see
about the recent road closures with the rain that's happening.
Of course, there will be road closure to the South Island,
so I appreciate you coming back in with that. There
will be road closures on State Highway one south of
cau Caulder, And if you've got any other updates on

(01:48:52):
the weather, let me know too. I reckon it might
be slowing on the Desert Road tonight, and I don't
think we've had some on the Desert Road so far
this year. But you can't go south from cal Coulder,
you can't go on the hundles, and you can't go
on that other road, the back road, the back road
to Hemmer the Inland Road. Great name Friday. I wonder
if that part of the country's ever going to have

(01:49:13):
a proper transport up there. Of course the train didn't
go up there. That the christ Church to Picton train
was really late about in nineteen forty eight because geologically
it was so shaky. But that's me. I'd like to
talk to you tonight if you want to be on here,
oh eight hundred and eighty today. My name is Marcus. Welcome,
so I need a couple of calls. We'll clay a

(01:49:33):
couple of songs. But if you don't want to talk that,
if you're doing something exciting for matadig, if you're out driving,
if you've got a road report, if you're outraged by
anyone or outraged by anything, then I'm up for that
discussion tonight. So be in touch. If you want to
talk Marcus till twelve. If you've got other stuff, bring
it on and you might just have a quick HELAYO,

(01:49:56):
hello all goday on the evening. Then I'm totally up
for that. So yeah, Texts have been all right tonight.
Sometimes texts get a little bit and saying I wonder
what the psychology if someone sitting at home and sort
of texting through abusive stuff is. But anyway, as long
as you don't do it to the other hosts, because
that would upset me, I can handle it. Marcus cruised

(01:50:17):
into the cave set way he recently and a bucket
with sides was fifty three bucks. So kept driving and
picked up a rotisserie chicken and coldstal from New World
for twenty bucks. Who can afford KFC chairs bears. Oh
by the way, here's a hint for you. You know,
when you go to KFC in places these days, it's
all payWave and just hold the payWave over the terminal,

(01:50:41):
and sometimes it's too far away. What you can get
online now is a wand and you put your payWave
card in the wand. So when it goes to KFC
or Burger King or whatever and you go to pay,
you just wave the wand over the payWave machine. Looks
fantastic to me, I thought, jeepest creepers given me a
bit of that. So there we go. That's that anyway,
being touched with you on talk Marcus still twelve, and

(01:51:05):
I'll tell you what something that disappeared tupperware. I just
thought I remember a couple of years. I was at
the end of tupware, but never came back. I see
occasionally people try and sell their secondhand stuff, but no
one seems to want it. All gets a bit scody
after a while, doesn't it. Anyway, I mentioned tupwear, I'm
just throwing random stuff at you tonight. Now you might

(01:51:26):
have seen Bonnie Tyler and she played at that festival
in Queenstown and I think she was coming back a
few times for those but she was just go I think,
I mean she was just playing a bang, as wasn't she.
I did during the news watch some of her recent
concert footage and she wasn't as good as she once was.
Would be fair to say another one of those pop stars.

(01:51:50):
She was Welsh, but her real name was gain or Hopkins,
and I think that was the name was suitable. Either
there is a sing called Gloria gain Or, so make
of that what you will. But yeah, she was discovered
singing in a pub in Swansea and she became huge
and kind of had an uncontroversial career apart from that
video from Totaler Clips of the Heart, which was sort

(01:52:10):
of in a boarding school with sort of yeah, I
don't really know what was going on there, but I
don't think it was good. Yeah, Gibston was the concert
she played in Gibston. But yes, Marcus still twelve. You've
got to talk eight hundred eighty ten eighty and nine
to two ninety text anything else you want to mention,
that's the plan. So yes, be in touch if you
want to. Oh, eight hundred eighty ten eighty and nine

(01:52:32):
two nine two text, But yeah, being touched if you
want to talk about this or anything else. Who I've
said enough, get those texts coming through. Oh, apparently cost
Co have tapleware. I've learned something tonight and that's made midnight,
so there you go. I'm happy with that. Learning learning,
learning information. So if you want to know the lineup

(01:52:54):
for tomorrow on z B, get a little information there,
but can't give it to you an hour. And the
major news to is the situation with wide Eye. But yeah,
he does to hear from his un there's eve of
Matariki as I say, oh, eight hundred eight to each,
maybe thirteen minutes past at eleven o'clock, Graham, this is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 7 (01:53:13):
Yeah, I just not long home after performing Love with
the Bog Bar said to hear the Bonnie Tyler's passed.

Speaker 2 (01:53:20):
Because she had been it was a bad end to
her life because she got elder in operations, been quite sick.

Speaker 12 (01:53:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:53:26):
Well my understanding was that she has put an adduced
coma and then she came out of that and she
was I thought she was on the end and that
was not to be. One fact here she once did
a song called rock and good Way. A jewet was
Shagan Stevens, who is also Welsh.

Speaker 2 (01:53:47):
I always quite like shaking Stevens. He isn't kind of
a lot of this copy book yet, has he?

Speaker 7 (01:53:53):
No, he's no. He had a near fatal heart attack
about ten years ago and when he lost him but
he was rushed to hospital and time and saved. But
me's uh sort of rocking a bit and yeah, he's
one of my sort of role models and rock and roll.
I don't think he's ever been given the.

Speaker 2 (01:54:17):
He deserves.

Speaker 7 (01:54:18):
Yeah, absolutely, And he should have been definite material for
the uh what's that famous rock concert and live aid
or something.

Speaker 2 (01:54:31):
That was, wasn't it?

Speaker 7 (01:54:34):
He was passed over and I was like, how a
nice red like pink jacket. Well I've got one too.

Speaker 9 (01:54:44):
Yeah, I.

Speaker 2 (01:54:46):
What's his big hit Green Doors.

Speaker 7 (01:54:48):
A whole hol hits Green Door. There's one there that's
has got has got a cat which is in the footage,
which I've renamed Pepper because he's hot stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:55:04):
That's a good thing.

Speaker 7 (01:55:05):
But black, black, white back a white cat.

Speaker 8 (01:55:08):
And I thought, ye know, I.

Speaker 7 (01:55:09):
Rang I ring him up once and she told me
he is a hell of a nice guy.

Speaker 2 (01:55:15):
Would you bring him up?

Speaker 7 (01:55:17):
I was on what's his name?

Speaker 5 (01:55:23):
Show?

Speaker 7 (01:55:24):
He suddenly just oh, oh, there's a talk about hosts
or something around the music show on one of the
New Zealand radio shows Now Dead, and he said, I've
got shaking Steve. I've got shaking Stevens on the line.
Would you like to talk to him?

Speaker 2 (01:55:44):
I thought, oh, I hope.

Speaker 7 (01:55:48):
I'm trying to remember the name, but I'm just sort
of just woken up.

Speaker 2 (01:55:53):
Oh well, you said, just come home from a gig.
If you come home and then gone to bed.

Speaker 7 (01:55:56):
Yeah, I've just gone to bed and I just heard you,
And then I thought, oh my gosh. I just have
been performing tonight and on the on the live on
stage to Brogo.

Speaker 2 (01:56:07):
Do you do rock and roll there or do you
do Irish music?

Speaker 7 (01:56:13):
I'd a bit of shaken Stevens and others and others
you know, Lubamba and the Blues Brothers or just anything
you know.

Speaker 2 (01:56:22):
Oh, jee, he got a great repertoire. Is shaking Stevens
is shaking Stevens been to New Zealand.

Speaker 7 (01:56:29):
I'm not sure, but he said he didn't like being
compared with Elvis. Was his own man, He had his
own style, And yeah, I thought it was pretty likely
he used to roll as heels, which is something that
Elvis could never do. And I thought I thought he
was a better dancer than I was.

Speaker 2 (01:56:50):
Elvis was a pretty good dancer. I don't think anyway,
I don't. I don't think one's going to go to
compared to Elvis. I think he's the greatest vocalist ever.

Speaker 7 (01:56:57):
Yeah, but anyway, this Bonnie Tyler and him did a
very memorable duet together on the British stage and was.

Speaker 2 (01:57:09):
Called Rock and good Way and the Great wel The
great Welsh singers would be Bonnie Tyler, Shaking Stevens, Charlotte Church,
Tom Jones.

Speaker 8 (01:57:19):
Would that be right, Tom Jones?

Speaker 7 (01:57:21):
He had definitely include Tom Jones on there.

Speaker 2 (01:57:23):
Yep, who else would you put them there?

Speaker 15 (01:57:27):
Oh?

Speaker 11 (01:57:27):
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (01:57:28):
I think I think shaking sense. It was the top
of my list just because he's he's sort of like
what what I was probably should have been if he
had if he'd been born a Welshman instead of an American.

Speaker 2 (01:57:42):
That's a good point. I think Duffy's Welsh. Okay, Graham,
nice to talk to you. Thank you so much about
twenty one past eleven. In the of Mataliki Marcus, I'd
rather have sir steamer than tupwear any day, and seals better.
I started to take my grandchildn of Burger King for
a trick because I used my gold card twenty percent
of good savings Marc's. I don't understand why there isn't

(01:58:02):
a bit of choice of board lollies on sales these days.
I have a sweet tooth, but can't find any great
variety of hard sweets to suck on. In New Zealand
has mister trick. Those I don't swear often, and I
don't even think I've sworn on those shows. But those,
they're just those lollies. Could you imagine if in New

(01:58:24):
Zealand leaned into that, I mean they give out boiled sweets.
You know, it's unique in the world. Keep doing it,
lean into it, Fijoa flavor, Tamarillo flavor, Kiwi fruit flavor,
coowacoa flavor, what are some other iconic flavors? And sell
them in bags? Honestly? Whereas the New Zealand Confectionery in

(01:58:44):
Queenstown there's a brand new shop selling lint chocolate? Is
that what we've become to? The only chocolates we can
sell are from Switzerland? And the other thing when I'm
raving about Queenstown, the opportunities we've missed in Queenstown At
the moment there are four shops, four selling boots and hats.
Ween did New Zealand missed the so badly with sheepskin products?

(01:59:09):
We should be all over that. Where was the usingand
Ug company? I've thought a lot about that. We who
doesn't love an ugboot love an ugboot? But goodness me ah,
so that's my ray for the night. Oh Shirley Bessie,
of course, three people, Shirley Bessie, Shirley Bessie, Shirley Bessie,

(01:59:32):
she's eighty nine, Still love her depster, Love your depster.
Been at the Auckland Phlammonia Matadiki anthem count outstanding also
Nandos excellent, Penny Petty Sauce. Cheers. Richard Marcus. That song
Power of Love you played last night was awesome. I
thought you were singing. I was singing, Kerrie said, this

(01:59:53):
morning it was Ai. Kerry this morning was Ai. So
I'll tell you for that. But yeah, what's wrong with
the boiled sweets? When's the great New Zealand? What are
the great New Zealand flavors? Fi joua ki fruit, tamaralo, pavlova.
I don't know what the answer that is. But you
want to do all those and someone I'm a contract
they should be doing. Those people that do that delicious

(02:00:15):
popcorn should do it and make a sweet for them,
because I'm sick of just just because they just tear it.
They're just they're just the worst. You do a pineapple
lump flavor as well. I think I've got a business opportunity,
but it's my idea. Well, I guess no, it's not
that original. You do a marmite one, it meant to
be go viral. You do a hung evil flavored one,

(02:00:36):
a marmight one, fijl one and a pineapple lump. We
lost all the good stuff, haven't we the pineapple lumps,
and I don't know I've come back or not a
kind of lost track about those. I think I'm just
going to rent till midnight. Actually I've given up on everyone,
met says PSA. Please tune your IF and lights on.
We're traveling in low light conditions, especially while driving up

(02:00:58):
the porous Plasta play in the snow. From working out
there all week, I saw so many misses from people
with no lights on. Oh, height to the snow groomers.
I can't say hi to the groomers. Just high to
the groomers, can I because you get that one wrong,
the snow groomers. Not high to the other groomers. So
high to the snow groomers. Fancy putting Shaken Stevens in

(02:01:19):
the same category as Elvis. Yeah, I feel sort of
a little bit mouthsick about that. Elvis is untouchably's so
iconic you never have to beach the pseudonym. Everyone knows
who Elvis is or was, wasn't his own category and
will forever be the king. Yeah, i'd els and I
need you. I will play. I know I've been teasing
all night, but I will be playing three songs on

(02:01:41):
need a couple of calls before I go, just to
hear from you, just to hear sweet little voice. Or aniseed, Karen,
You're so right. Aniseed. You have aniseed. You have fijoa,
you have keyw fruit, you have temarillo, you have pineapple
lump flavor, which is pineapple and that's it. And Kwa
kawa or one of those plant type based flavors. I

(02:02:02):
don't know what they are these what the new invent one,
it doesn't matter, or what petal oh. I thought it
was sad that the Willington's capa Bara has died. Was
it even there? I love a keeper barrab, but no
keper Barra belows and the belongs in the new Town Zoo.
It always seems like Willington's Zoo was announcing sudden deaths
of animals and only arrived there last year for breathing

(02:02:23):
and died unexpectedly. There seems to be something wrong with
their I don't know, but the animals don't seem to
have much luck there, so giant adorable the kaeper Barra,
So yeah, I'm not happy about that either. And Marnooka honey, Kate,
You're quite right. I was thinking about that Marnooka honey
Anni seed, fijot, what's the what's the head? Unity news
that I might email him because I feel quite strong

(02:02:44):
about this. Forget all that obsession with live flat economy
seats just looks awkward. Who'd want to fly lying down?
What happened to crash? You go sliding into the front?
That's right, Niko or Rabashenka boiled sweets, get your own brand,
be life changing? So yes, so clearly I'm going to

(02:03:05):
just rent to Midnight on Hokey Pokey that's right, and
L and P. That's that's enough. That's the great New
zeven flavors all there because they're just it's just green
and orange and white and they've done them forever. They're terrible.
I need you tonight.

Speaker 6 (02:03:24):
Now.

Speaker 2 (02:03:25):
Am I gonna sing my theme song again tonight? Pung
a flavor they I reckon? That'd be good? Or Manuka
t Tree Monica's big, isn't it? Or Gorse you get
the driftwo'd be twenty nine away from I've got some
pretty interesting things to say tonight, Good evening, Marcus, are

(02:03:47):
Nights of New Zealand still open and in votcaboy I
don't think they are. I think they have closed recently.
I bought a lovely sheepskin vest there and I left
at a meeting I went to in a church hall.
Won't say what it was, and never got it back
to this day. Think about you, but when I lose
an item of clothing, it's like I lose a part
of myself. They were great, I agree, but that's got
to come back at. Kappa Bara is a large road

(02:04:08):
it maybe it felt threatened by its contemporaries in the
Beehive Mark's. We have an Australia Egg boot shop in
George Street. To need not news any shit?

Speaker 9 (02:04:15):
Yea?

Speaker 2 (02:04:15):
Why an't we buying news? Even sheepskin artems? Do you reckon?
Woodpigeon flavor is considered legal? Too cold? The exactly well,
No Kappa Bara should be in a concrete zoo. It's
heartfreid everythink they were there. I can't believe how anty
and I see now they've got rid of all those
lines up at the Zion. What it wasted life for
them coming all that way just to be watched and

(02:04:36):
prodded and then euthanized. Ye found myself down on zoos,
haven't I now? If you've got some brilliant to share tonight,
I'm looking forward to it. Email me if you can
shaken Stevens Marc's I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this,
but totally The Clips of the Heart was written by
Jim Steinman, who wrote a lot of songs for Meatloaf,

(02:04:57):
and the song was originally written with meat Loaf in mind.
Meatloaf tried the song but didn't suit his voice, and
Steinman thought it would be better suit a female voice
in the song offered to Bonnie Tyler. Also, the Best
was written by Bonnie Tyler, but two years later Tina
Turner recorded it was released as simply the Best and
the rest is history. Thank you for that. And look,

(02:05:18):
I will just fact check about that because reading a
bitarity about total Eclips of the Heart, and I know
that Meatloaf was upset he didn't sing it because it
went so well, but meetloof Meatloaf was a cantankerous old
guy for a while there, I mean, he kind of
let me just look at the situation. After a record
contract with RCAA end in nineteen eighty one, Tyler found

(02:05:39):
a new manager and David Espan after seeing Meatloaf perform
bet Out of how Live on the Old Gray Whistle Tess.
She approached Meetlof's writer Jim Steimond and asked him to
be her producer. Tyler aram Tocrad now utilizing the War
of Sound production techniques of Bill Specter, and she thought
Steiman was the right guy. Tyler visit stimon As apartment
in New York in April eighty two. When she was

(02:06:01):
presented with two tracks, have You Ever Seen the Rain
and going through the Motions, she stated she would not
like she had had she not liked the song Steiman
played for he would have rejected Tyler's invitation to Collotte collaborate.
She returned to his studio apartment eight weeks later, where
Steinman and Rory Dodd performed Totally Clips of the Heart
for her. Stearman also handpicked the recording band for the song,

(02:06:25):
which included Dodd as a featured vocalist. Which is the
turnaround refrain, so it doesn't mention specifically it was written
for mister Loaf, but I did hear that meat Loaf
got upset and got a but antsy Oh, here we go.
According to meat Loaf, Stearman had written the song along
with Making Love It and Nothing at All for Meatlove's

(02:06:48):
album Midnight at the Lost and Found. However, Meatloves for
Company refused to pay Steinem and he wrote separate songs
himself totally. Clips of the Heart was given to Bonnie
Tyler and Making Love out of Nothing at All to
air supply. Tyler has denied this claim. Meet Love was
apparently re annoyed that Jim gave that to me, Tayler stated,
but Jim said he didn't write it for meat Loaf,
that he only finished it after meeting me. Steinman said

(02:07:11):
to people they considered it an area an aria to
me a Wagnerian like onslought of sound and emotion. I
wanted to be a show piece for her voice. And
the music video was made by an Australian called Russell
mulcahy and is quite problematic involving kind of erotica with

(02:07:31):
children at a boarding school. So yeah, and she distanced
herself from the video. But because it was pretty it was,
I mean, it was the eighty symbolism like you wouldn't
have mentioned, with doves and all sorts of stuff. So anyway,
that is I think it went off ended up making
the film Highlander, that director that made them and you
can see that in the shot listening for Highlander. So
that's a situation there. Anyway.
