Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:07):
You're listening to the Marcus Slush Nights podcast from news Talks,
they'd be.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
Boom just like their greetings and welcome Marcus sett twelve o'clock.
I hope it's good with you are If it's not good,
I hope it gets a bit about the time I
live here at midnight tonight. Wow, oh eight hundred and
eighty ten eighty and ninety. Just listening to Nina and
the Nags, it sounds like a punk band, and Nina
and the Nags. Who'd want to be a retailer selling nags?
Having to ask people if they're going to use them

(00:34):
for making cream? I mean, do you really want to
be getting involved with fights with young people? I don't
even know what the solution is there. As listening to
that story about the nags, I'm thinking, Wow, that's not
good for anyone. I'm surprised that anyone's selling them at all,
because you wouldn't make much money from them. I mean,
chefs aren't going to buy from the dey l the shop,
are they. They'd be buying from like a chef's supply shop.

(00:58):
All all of them should go to the sef supply
chief supply ship. I think I don't know why sunning
nags are all in the news. We'reveryone's talking about nangs.
But suddenly now we're realizing people are driving and they
are driving. What is the situation? If you are have
smoke cannabis, you are stoned. If you've drunk a lot,
you're intoxicated. If you've had a lot of nangs, what

(01:18):
are you are? Your nanged? So who knew people are
driving nanged? Let's just assume it's that who you people
are driving nanged? I didn't, but why would yeah, why
would people sell them? Surprised anyone can get hold of
I was it? Your nangs would be just in your
catering supply shops And I think most restaurants they have

(01:39):
people come around and doing deliveries. You know, how's your
order going there? So what do you want? Do you
want more nangs? You'll get those. But anyway, if you
are involved in retailer selling nangs, that sounds crazy to
me that you'd have to ask people what they're going
to use them for. Haven't had a discussion of nags,
but I've been nan adjacent on the cusp of talking
about nangs. I just don't know how much outrage there

(02:00):
is in the old nangry in the nags. But if
you want to talk about that, yeah, particularly if you
are in retail on selling them. I've just googled nangs
and it says nangs near me, so obviously people are
trying to get them from the on the z B staff.
That would be it'd be googling nangs near me. Anyway,

(02:21):
if you want to talk about nangs, I'd like a
couple of calls about that to start off with tonight.
There's other topics, but yeah, because you're not going to
find the nang owners because or the users, because that's
going to be crazy. You wouldn't find them anyway. If
you want to talk about that atte nine nine two detext,
what's a workable solution? I kind of meage it's gonna

(02:42):
be one of those things that perhaps people might get
sick of. I was going to say, like vaping, but
vaping seems to be something that people are doing again. Anyway,
if you've got some nang stuff for me, but it's
all about enforcement too, I guess, but ye'll be curious
to know if you've got to say anything about that.
For those that don't know, it's pretty clear in Nina's story. Yeah,

(03:02):
if you've got some more, if you've got some nang experience,
give me a holler. S If it's what, what do
you call someone that's on nitrous oxide?

Speaker 3 (03:18):
Are they?

Speaker 2 (03:19):
What's the what's the adjective to describe someone that's had
a lot of nitrous I don't know the answer to that,
but if you can, let me know. Oh, eight hundred
and eighty ten eighty and nine to nine to detext
I think it's gonna be bits and bobs, but I
will keep an eye on the Middle East. Obviously, anyone
had to look at the map of Iran. Boyoboy, it
not Iraq. It's free, mountainous. Isn't it be a very

(03:39):
difficult country to to occupy or to fight with? And
I would think when Iraq is a desert, Iran's anything
but streaming mountainous. But what I was looking at on
Google maps today, which I thought was interesting anyway, So
we'll keep you updated about that also. And boy oh boy,

(03:59):
now there's a situation you plymouth with the flag. I
reckon out of anything on this show, the thing that
causes the most Haslin's country is flags. Yeah, I'm just
going back to that Nan comment, Retail into chief car
on the young said businesses don't sell to young people,
even if they pass the checks, they can refuse on

(04:20):
the ground, I don't think it's been used for legitimate purposes.
No retail on their right minds ever going to say that,
you get yourself in a fight. So anyway, we was like,
I was talking about New Plymouth and this flag, because
they're flowing the American flag of the council headquarters after
the bombing of a ran and this outrage about that.

(04:45):
And they've said it's tied to the Americana Festival. But
look what I have noticed, just from an outsider looking
is that. And I think all of us live in
small towns are fairly concerned and protective of our image
of our small towns. Every time there's a story that

(05:08):
shows people on council or people just generally kind of
been a bit loose and slightly boorish, time and time again,
it seems to be New Plymouth, wonderful time. But I
reckon they're damaging their reputation. I reckon it's looking like
it's some sort of herbally headquarters. Anyway, I'm just saying
that because I don't know how you think about the

(05:28):
New Plymouth, but there's one or two squeaky wheels, and
they're always on people's Oh it's just God, just a
bit of a laugh. Don't take yourself too seriously. But
you know, these days local tourism people are thinking what
town to go to or where should we move to.
I think New Plymouth is a situation where they are
more and more getting in the news. Used to be
sort of a bucolic, beloved little place, but now it's

(05:49):
more and more sort of a looking like a redneckvill
don't know if anyone else is perceived that anyway. So
there's the nangs and the nanging, and there's New Plymouth,
and there's also the situation where I ran all those
would be good to talk about tonight. Oh, we've got
the eclipse. It's the lunar eclipse. And unlike the solar

(06:09):
eclipse when the Earth when the Earth perfectly obscures the Sun,
because funny enough, they are the same size despite being
so far away, the lunar eclipse is slightly different. It's
not part of the perfection of the universe, and it'll
take a while for the Moon to pass through the

(06:35):
shadow or the per number, and then you get a
sunrise type thing. That's what makes the whole thing red.
It's happening about midnight tonight, so you might be excited
about that. You might be going to stay up for that.
You might be going to do so. Unlike the solar eclipse,
I don't that you can blow your retin or that
you knock yourself out. You can look as long as
you like. The last one we had several years ago,

(06:56):
I broadcast live was exciting. I'm not broadcasting this one
life but live because I'll be off air and I'm
not going to stay around longer to broadcast clips. But
if you are excited about that, get in touch with
that too, please. Oh eight hundred eighty tenenty nine nine.
You want to start the whole wall rolling tonight, Get
in touch. Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty ah. Oh,

(07:21):
by the way, there's a five. They've closed George Bolt Memorial,
So I don't know why that far as that he
might be an eyewitness, Marcus, I just find a Suzuki
Swift at the traffic light that dreary, with the driver
and the passenger sucking on balloons. Oh, they'd be nitrous
in the balloons. Would there.

Speaker 4 (07:39):
Is?

Speaker 2 (07:39):
It isn't an offense? Do you report that? I'm surprised
that's is Suzuki swift. Someone said they are nonged, Marcus.
They are being nonged, Marcus. Trump has promised a massive
attack tonight, working late, So can you update as it happens, Ben, Yes,
I will anything about that live live for the updates
on the situation in Iran, get in touch if you

(08:02):
want to. I guess the most likely option too, if
you look at the other countries, probably will be civil
war there, I would think. But we'll wait and see
what happens there. It seems as though a lot of
the discussions and talking points today seem to be slightly gloomier, Marcus.
People that get to nos are generally referred to as
ware's heads or wazzes. They are usually taking ced cleaner

(08:25):
stuff as well, which they call waz wow. I didn't
know about waz And of course, bearing in mind too
when people text me, I've also got to be mindful
that they might be taking the mickey. But yeah, I
always fight to google stuff, but Where's Heads, just to
make sure they're not sending me down the road By
the way news through just through. The Israeli ministry says

(08:49):
its soldiers are in inverted commas operating in South Lebanon.
I don't know what that means, but I guess that
means ground troops or an invasion or whatever words you
want to cart it in. That seems to be happening there.
So I'll bring in more details when I can. I've
got all the all the war channels on to keep
you updated, as promised, Marcus. I who'd you talk about

(09:14):
nangs and what happens and what express you use when
you get on it? Some ideas Nanged, Nang attack, Nang rooney,
Nang banged, need any other ideas? Not a Nang endorser.
Side note, Spurus lost again? How tragic of a club? Embarrassing? Yeah,
I don't know about. I don't know about. I've never
heard about c D cleaner either. Who has CDs? And

(09:36):
if you've got CDs, who cleans them? Because normally you
just touch the edges, don't you put appere it's Marcus,
good evening and welcome. Oh sorry, my bad? Yeah put
ape it's Marcus good evening and welcome. Yeah that and
clears it was my I pushed the wrong I pushed
the button poorly, so welcome.

Speaker 5 (09:54):
I no, just on their comment that you've got about
the CD cleaner, Yes, well I wouldn't recommend to clean
your CDs with it. You have no music left on them.

Speaker 2 (10:04):
I don't think that. I don't think they're talking about
NASA's see. I think they talk about that.

Speaker 6 (10:08):
You're talking about that.

Speaker 5 (10:09):
Ways, what is it?

Speaker 6 (10:11):
I don't actually know, but better like takes the paint
off stuff.

Speaker 5 (10:15):
In that Okay, anyway, that's what I want to say.

Speaker 2 (10:19):
Appreciate it, pitterp thank you. Yeah, don't. I don't know
what that angle is. It's not something that but although
I tell you something that has just occurred to me.
And we don't often celebrate how far we've come or
things have changed, but I'll tell you what you don't
see these days that used to be a blot in
these cities in the eighties and the nineties. You don't

(10:39):
see the glue stiff as you once saw. And that's
got to be a good thing, hasn't it. I mean
that was because I reckon. It's a long way back
from that stuff. But yeah, there was that moral panic
about glue and glue stiffing, and who should be able
to buy glue and yeah, and solvents. But you don't
seem to see that so much anymore. It's a big
thing there for a while, street kids and glue just

(11:01):
pointing it out there, Marcus. Perhaps the best term for
those people who are taking nitrosits call them wasted. Thank you,
but get in touch you on a talk in the
show tonight. Oh wait, yeah, And if they're handing out
of a balloon, is that what they would be doing.
I don't want to sound naive about this, but it's
it's not part of my song line anyway, come through
if you want to talk. Oh eight hundred and eighty

(11:22):
ten eighty, as I say, I'll keep you updated with
the news that it happens tonight as far as any
use goes. There was that where rail that whale stranded
in Auckland day at Saint Helier's. It was one of
those rarer ones. It was a beaked whale which live
in the deep sea and only coming if there's something wrong.

(11:44):
Clear there was something wrong, something wrong with its GPS.
By the sounds of things, you might want to mention
that also too. As I say, oh eight hundred and
eighty ten eighty. By the way, the US Embassy in
Israel has told citizens it's unable to assist in evacuations.
More information soon. Nineteen past eight evening, Rob, This is Marcus.

Speaker 7 (12:07):
Welcome, Good day, Marcus, great show.

Speaker 8 (12:11):
Look.

Speaker 7 (12:11):
I was going to talk about some other things, but
the chapter your users said not to mention them, but
it was about so I was just going to ask,
I guess that the theme song that you've got, I
just current this is. I mean, this is apart from
what I going to talk about.

Speaker 4 (12:26):
But who is the.

Speaker 2 (12:27):
Singer Jennifer Rush? Are you there, Jennifer Rush?

Speaker 4 (12:32):
Oh, okay, thanks.

Speaker 7 (12:33):
I've always you know, it's mystified me for a long
time because I remember the old Roger Whittiger days, you know,
going back. But hey, look that I think about these
these nangs or whatever you can call them, these nitrous
oxide done things. I remember, as you know, when I

(12:54):
was young, I was probably about ten or eleven, Like
I'm from the generation when your parents had a soda bottle,
you know, and you put them into the soda bottle.
And the most dangerous thing I ever did with one
of those things was put it in the vice down
on dad's workshop and whack a nail on the top
of it. You know, just I'm glad I didn't put

(13:15):
my head over it because it was just shot into
the ceiling. You know.

Speaker 2 (13:21):
Did it shoot the opposite direction from where you were
you came and down?

Speaker 9 (13:28):
No, I know.

Speaker 7 (13:29):
I put it in to the vice and whack the
nail on the top of it and just shot off
into the ceiling.

Speaker 2 (13:37):
I thought it would have gone the other direction.

Speaker 7 (13:39):
No, No, we went into the ceiling.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
Did the nail go into the ceiling or did the
whole cannis to go into the ceiling?

Speaker 7 (13:45):
No, no, just just the nail of course, was left there.

Speaker 2 (13:49):
Yeah, okay, that is dangerous. I mean, the thing is
I worry about YouTube. We I worry about YouTube with
people trying to get followers doing things like that.

Speaker 7 (13:57):
Oh no, I mean that's terrible to think about that
even you know. That's I mean, that's there's that the
modern age.

Speaker 2 (14:04):
Why is young Rod got one eye? Oh well he
got through a stream.

Speaker 7 (14:07):
Yeah you got heah, the side of street. That's yeah,
that sort of thing. But with that nitrous oxide. Samuel
Taylor Coleridge, the poet, he was big into it, and
there was a whole They had clubs in the end
of the nineteenth century where people would go and and

(14:27):
huff on that stuff. There's a book called The Atmosphere
in Heaven by Michael j. He's a sort of social
historian or whatever, and he wrote a book about it,
and it was very interesting to read it years ago.
But it's just it was quite, you know, sort of
interesting to see that, you know, there was that sort
of whole sort of subm I don't know, we called

(14:49):
it a.

Speaker 2 (14:49):
Subculture, but laugh and guess changed the world.

Speaker 10 (14:54):
Lasting.

Speaker 7 (14:54):
Yes, that's right, Yeah, that's the Yeah. But it's I mean,
it's a it's a worry when you hear that people are,
you know, using it and driving cars and or just
using it anyway.

Speaker 2 (15:05):
And but you would never you sound like you might
have had some experience of substances. You wouldn't be trying
to drive your car. You wouldn't use it to drive
your car.

Speaker 4 (15:16):
Would you.

Speaker 7 (15:18):
No, I don't think so. Yeah, you know, substances. Yeah,
you can go back forty or fifty years with me
regarding that sort of thing, but not that stuff.

Speaker 2 (15:28):
It seems like a bit of a cheap high too,
doesn't it.

Speaker 7 (15:31):
Yeah, well it is it's like, you know, yeah, it's
like people like you mentioned about the glue sniffing thing. Well,
I used to manage a bookshop in k Road and
it's okay. It was all above level. It was a
bad poet's bookstore and it was a second hand bookshop.
That was back at the beginning of the two well

(15:51):
into the nineties, early two thousands, and there was always
Dave the glue sniffer wandering around on k Road. He
was quite famous. You know, he'd collapse with his girlfriend
and pass out and people bring him to and stuff.
But you don't hear about blue sniffing now, you know.

Speaker 2 (16:11):
I guess it's probably been replaced by something else, but
it's it seemed to be about these things. It did
seem to be a particularly evil kind of a every
low economy.

Speaker 5 (16:22):
Yeah, low red.

Speaker 7 (16:23):
I think when you say that, that sort of sums
up that sort of stuff, And I think this nands
these the nitrous oxide in these things, low rend, isn't it?

Speaker 5 (16:35):
But driving?

Speaker 2 (16:36):
That's the old rhyme of the ancient mariner, isn't it, Colorridge?
You ever got that right?

Speaker 11 (16:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (16:40):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's.

Speaker 2 (16:41):
The laughing guess, is it?

Speaker 7 (16:44):
Yeah? Well, yeah, Yeah, he was a big laughing gas man. Yeah.
And then the book that it's probably in the library
still but by Mike j. It's probably J for joint
but no j A y. Yeah. The Atmosphere in Heaven,
which I think is a great title.

Speaker 2 (17:01):
Fantastic and the atmosphere in heaven's referring to laughing guess
is it?

Speaker 7 (17:06):
Yes, said Hell, there were clubs, you know, like they
used to have the Gentlemen's clubs and things like that,
and there were ones where people went and just sat
there and you know, part of of the nitrous oxide.

Speaker 2 (17:19):
And the expression was the atmosphere in Heaven? Is that
what you said?

Speaker 7 (17:22):
Yeah, Yeah, that's the name of the book, and it's a.
It's a it's a great title.

Speaker 2 (17:26):
I thought, you know, it's fantastic till I got to run.
But look, I'm go to old. I'm going to lock
that one up. But I appreciate you. You've got this little
started is an atmosphere in Heaven. I appreciate your I
appreciate your enthusiasm and learned this with the with the
topic too. Get in touch you want to talk eight
hundred and eighty ten eighty. I feel I'm away now no,
line's free. They'll become available. Wow, I'll find more. Get

(17:52):
in touch if you want to talk. Oh, Mike Jay,
that's right. The US Embassy in Israel has told citizens
it's unable to assist in evacuations of its citizens from Israel.
Even Humphrey Davy invented the Davy lamp, he was well
into the night riss too, with spectacular results. Lang, it's Marcus.

(18:12):
Good evening and welcome Marcus. You well you thank you.

Speaker 12 (18:16):
Now, Hey, Lang is the pseudo name, obviously, but I'm
I guess you'd ask a little bit earlier about any
of us who might have had to go. Now I'm talking.
I want you to cast mine back to maybe ninety nine,
two thousands there or thereabouts.

Speaker 13 (18:33):
We went to a couple of.

Speaker 12 (18:34):
Parties and they were actually in nightclubs, like you know,
there were things you paid for a ticket to go anything,
and you could buy these things on the bar, a
balloon full of full of nos. And we didn't call
them Nang's back then. Nang wasn't a name when you
We called them nossies or noss balloons. And you'd buy one,
maybe five bucks, ten bucks. You'd go sit in the

(18:54):
corner in front of a speaker and suck it back
and you went drifting for fifteen twenty seconds.

Speaker 13 (19:02):
And look it was Yeah, it was quite your foric.

Speaker 12 (19:04):
It was quite crazy. But anyway, and it was.

Speaker 2 (19:07):
Probably I mean, I know you've got a pseudonym, but
it was probably. I suspect it was probably legit and
legal and probably still is is it?

Speaker 12 (19:14):
Well no, I mean yeah, they wouldn't sell them in
the pubs, bars and nightclubs anymore. That was certainly knocked
on the head.

Speaker 2 (19:24):
It's weird when you can have possession for whipping cream purposes,
but I mean that, yeah, I mean, I can image
you be an interesting legal case, wouldn't it.

Speaker 12 (19:33):
Well that leads me to the second part of the
story was one of the boys of which I lived
with at the time, was in the hospitality game, and
it was quite easy for them to go and load
up with a big box of the things under the
guise of whipping cream.

Speaker 14 (19:47):
Exactly that, and.

Speaker 12 (19:50):
Think of the I don't know how to explain it,
I don't know what they called, but think of the
old sort of sort of great gatsby nineteen thirties deco
soda water things.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
Yes, that I think It was called a soda siphon,
like with a glass bottle and in a sort of
a wire mesh or something. Have I got that kind
of like you're visualizing.

Speaker 11 (20:12):
That's exactly it.

Speaker 12 (20:13):
We had one that was aluminium. It was called Big
Red and you could load it up with a couple
of nangs and into a balloon and then off again.
It was at about the time as young fellows, what
were we all of early early twenties and late teens,
early twenties, and one of the boys of riding into
Pink Floyd and there was a song called I don't
even know.

Speaker 5 (20:33):
If there's a song.

Speaker 12 (20:33):
It's one of all the wacky sound effects that turns
into clocks and chiming things and then a plain explosion.

Speaker 15 (20:40):
On the Run.

Speaker 12 (20:40):
I think it was called And you know, like I
remember sitting around in a group situation one night, everybody
having a nang or a nassy and listening to that
and it just echoing around in your head and you.

Speaker 2 (20:54):
Say, the song, what'd you say?

Speaker 4 (20:55):
The song was called on the Run.

Speaker 12 (20:58):
It may not have actually been a song. Markus to
be here. It's like a like an interlude between songs
on the dark side of the Moon the album with
the triangle in the prism on it, and it sort
of had a great selection of different sound effects to it.
But anyway, I'm.

Speaker 2 (21:15):
Not going to replicate. I just want to try work.

Speaker 12 (21:18):
Yeah, maybe you could sign out tonight by playing it.

Speaker 5 (21:22):
I don't know.

Speaker 12 (21:22):
But it was just one of those peculiar times in
life a year ago. But yeah, Lang Lang no longer
on the names.

Speaker 2 (21:29):
But I think the thing that surprised me is that
people and I think there was some doctor from Hawk's
Bay was talking on the radio, and people were taking
hundreds of them. You know, they weren't just having one,
they were their consumption was hundreds of them.

Speaker 9 (21:44):
Oh I wouldn't.

Speaker 12 (21:47):
Yeah, I remember one or two maybe maybe.

Speaker 13 (21:52):
And if you if you were.

Speaker 12 (21:53):
Smacking back hundreds of them, you're frezzling your head surely.

Speaker 2 (21:57):
And then driving. Okay, Lang, thank you Lang RUMs with Nang,
there we go. Good nickname. Radio name, not not a
pen name, but a radio name, like a norm diplume
of the radio. We're liking that. I embraced that. Twenty
five away from nine, I'll get in touch eight hundred

(22:18):
and eighty ten eighty nine to nine to de text.
If you want to be a part of it. Now,
where's the clock? Where is the clock? Where is the
clock over there? Ah, that's of course I forgot where
the clock was. Where it's the clock? Do you know

(22:40):
that news talks HEB is one hundred years older this August.
We've been doing this for one hundred years, and interestingly enough,
I don't really want to go down that. When I
first started News Talks B, we're in the old ZB
building that was in Durham Street, that old deco won.
But there's an article this morning in the New Zealand
Herald talking about the rejuvenation of the Strand Arcade that

(23:03):
runs been Queenstrently that street, the beautiful arcade and they're
spinning rejudging it up. Actually might have been in the hill,
it was one of that, but they that's where z'b
originally started. I'm advocating to go back there actually for
the hundredths but yeh, and't that interesting anyway? Lines they're
free looking forward to talking to you. Oh by the
way too, I apologized that it was Queen's Arcade, not

(23:27):
it was Queen's Arcade, not the Strand Arcade where that
they're going to redo, whether it used to be used
Z's headquarters, when at first it was actually One's he'd
be in those days five z'd was a train. That's
when they ready should bring back twenty one away from
nine kid at Marcus good evening.

Speaker 16 (23:47):
Hi, I can oh, yes it is, yes, yeah, so
you were talking about a few things before, especially in
Nigel Subside.

Speaker 17 (24:01):
Yes, yes, so I was curious because A has called
all these different Well I'm sixty three years old, right, yes,
and I just remember it from about forty years ago.

Speaker 2 (24:17):
Yeah, well that would be when I went to first
Attie Sex when I was in Sydney, when it was
seemed to be that was my first experience of it.
So yeah, exactly forty years ago.

Speaker 17 (24:26):
Had there to be about right? Yes, now, I know
it's not important necessarily, but I've heard people calling it
all these other different things, you know, like you know,
they've called it whether nas and this and that, and they.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
Called it I think they called the cream canister that
little torpedo shape. I think that is the nang. So
the name is the nang is the capsule containing the gas?
I think, oh god, this is discussing, you know, like well,
kids change terms, That's okay, isn't it.

Speaker 17 (25:01):
Well, that's okay, But apparently they're selling it in the
eies and places like that. Yeah, oh that's that's that's
best concerning, isn't it.

Speaker 2 (25:13):
I mean, well, they're saying you can only sell it
if you actually want it for a legitimate purpose.

Speaker 17 (25:20):
Yeah, what's a legitimate purpose.

Speaker 2 (25:22):
For whipping cream or dentistry? Have you ever had the
dentist offer it to you?

Speaker 17 (25:30):
I think my my partner, when she was giving birth,
she was offered it and she turns it down.

Speaker 2 (25:38):
Is that normal for Is it normal for birth?

Speaker 17 (25:41):
That was thirty years ago?

Speaker 2 (25:43):
Yeah, I don't know if it's Is it offered as
a matter of ritual?

Speaker 5 (25:47):
Now?

Speaker 17 (25:48):
I don't know. I have no idea. You know, I
haven't given birth lately.

Speaker 10 (25:54):
No.

Speaker 2 (25:54):
I wonder if you went to a dairy and asked
for some nitriss, you can tell your partner's giving birth.
I wonder if that was still what people are doing.

Speaker 17 (26:01):
Yeah, no, I have to emerge. I don't know. I'm
out of touch. I just think, you know, when I
when I was about twenty two, we used to call
it rush.

Speaker 2 (26:13):
I think that was that was something that was amial nitrate, wasn't.

Speaker 17 (26:16):
It well, that isn't there what we're talking about.

Speaker 2 (26:20):
No, it's something quite different. Oh yeah, no, no, no,
Emial nightrate is quite a specific, chepical thing. Nitrous sockside
is clearly very different. But yeah, anyway, keep up, ken.
I don't think you offered amial nightrate when you're giving birth.
I don't know, as I say, I haven't given birth,

(26:42):
but I've been in the in the room, in the
room twice indispendable. I was get in touch eight hundred
and eighty ten eighty eight forty five quarter to nine
David's Marcus good evening. Yeah, okay, yeah, Roger got your copy?

Speaker 18 (27:04):
Ok yeah, And I caught the wrong end to stick
here and made one last four attended. I heard Nige,
and I thought amlen.

Speaker 6 (27:13):
My dad used to.

Speaker 18 (27:17):
Yeah, yeah, we always have a box of it out
and the shed with those little camp shules and the
nishe around them.

Speaker 2 (27:24):
So it was an I gotta be careful here. It
was an antidote to cyanide. Correct.

Speaker 5 (27:30):
Yeah, well yeah, how did how did it work?

Speaker 19 (27:34):
Well?

Speaker 18 (27:34):
Speat your heart rate? I can't remember the particular, but
I know that he didn't have any of that.

Speaker 20 (27:39):
On on you.

Speaker 5 (27:40):
And you've got and you've got.

Speaker 18 (27:41):
A little bit too much of a work for it
or a tiny taste of it. You're supposed to look,
find the nearest hell and run straight up. But he's
supposed try and get your heart rate up. And I
know I believe that's what Ama Night does. Apparently that
counter X the the effect of the CID.

Speaker 2 (27:54):
That'll explain that. They'll explain the name Rush, Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 19 (27:59):
Yeah, would they use it much?

Speaker 18 (28:05):
I never saw dead pop one, and I mean, given
given how strong sonide was, obviously if you take it,
I thank you're pretty much. Bugget but yeah, where I
got and technology, but I like comunity July eighties. I
don't even know what it was some years later, but
now it was always there and it was almost full.

(28:26):
And I never saw dead Pool when op to use it.

Speaker 2 (28:29):
Yes, yes, so nus there's Evil Night, which was that
liquid but nitrous oxide is that guess that you get
in those small aluminum canisters that you put in if
you're in a restaurant. You put them in the cream
machines to make whipped cream.

Speaker 18 (28:46):
Yes, that's the one that everybody was doing about twenty
years ago. They called it nos.

Speaker 2 (28:50):
Yeah, and that's okay. So i'd speak again on the news.
But now it's no longer called nos Now it's called Nang's.

Speaker 9 (28:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 18 (28:57):
The remarketed, yeah, okay.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
Well yeah, but yeah, it's a different I suppose Cyanide's
gone with all those flash possum traps now that bang
their heads.

Speaker 5 (29:10):
Well yeah, I.

Speaker 18 (29:11):
Mean dad, dad, Yeah. He started out at the Hunter
and he you know, he go bush for like three
weeks and he takes take sinid. He'd take a few
twenty twos, and he he lay lay a poison line
out with the old the old type gin traps which
had been out lawed, you know that nasty ones of
the jaws on them, and put out put out a

(29:31):
line of traps, and then through the night we'd go
into a spotlight and try and shut as mean as
we couldn't come out. And you know, after two or
three weeks and whatever we had there were guys grown
up as a kid there there was was a huge
industry where he was the local buyer and Wookes bay him.
You know, we had fifty sixty guys come around through
the weekend and thousands of bossed skins traded.

Speaker 2 (29:53):
Was it skins or was it the fur was it
for the wool or was it for the skins?

Speaker 18 (29:58):
Well, of course that still chased. Now I believe they
just deep booth and now back then it was the
pelts and that come in all formed, so they come
and hole, so that's, you know, the the whole thing.
They come and green, which is skint. And then then
some of them, some of them had come and fully processed,
so they'd been skinned to dry it out.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
Yeah, I guess, yeah, I know that they were using
the wall for the fiber for socks and stuff, weren't they.
So they've interested to talk. Thank you for that. I'm
going to run ahead, but yeah, nice to talk. Twelve
away from nine. If you want to be a part
of the show. Eight hundred and eighty ten eighty, it's
nine away from nine. Moodock, it's Marcus. Welcome and good evening.

Speaker 6 (30:42):
Nice as an oxide. So I suppose when we were
young and dumb, probably fifteen years ago, we used to
buy in the little silver candices.

Speaker 2 (30:49):
As you're talking about what would that metal be? Would
that be aluminium? Want to be steel?

Speaker 17 (30:53):
Elem No?

Speaker 5 (30:54):
Steel?

Speaker 6 (30:54):
I think it was definitely steel, but you step by
it from all the dodgy daries and k row all ours,
but if you were onto it, you could go to
Gilmore's and it was a lot cheaper. Yes, And we
used to use the the else back in the days
when you used to make your own soda water. Yes,
as there's a sandy bottle, so you'd use those and

(31:15):
just put the gas into it and you get like
twelve of them minute and ago, and one would be
like one one. So I suppose that if you like.
But now that what they're doing is you can buy
and see the buying those little ones. Now you can
buy like two kilo ones, three kilo ones, four killer ones,
five killer ones, like a big bottle, like probably the
size of I see.

Speaker 2 (31:35):
That's why they're putting into a balloon.

Speaker 6 (31:37):
Yeah, and that's probably bigger than a soda stream bottle,
twice the size of that, Okay, And it's all coming
in from China. But it's the same thing as where
you go when you go to the dentist.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
Yeah. Have you ever had the dentist offer it to you?

Speaker 6 (31:49):
No, I need have, No, I never have.

Speaker 7 (31:51):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (31:51):
If it's a methrower, you get asked for it or
you say I don't know. Yeah, I've never seen the
canisters either.

Speaker 6 (31:58):
No, I know, I know you've sort of seen it
a lot that you used to hear a lot of
in America. But yeah, you used to see that all
those little canasses were scattered all over the road. But
now you see the big one. But they're like brightly colored.
It says like whipped cream makes, but you'd be whipping
a lot of cream if you're using one of those
big ones.

Speaker 2 (32:14):
So obviously they're important them knowing that it's not getting
whipped cream. They know it's been sold re creation.

Speaker 6 (32:19):
Yeah, from China. And it's like we used to pay
I think it used to pay like twelve to fifteen
dollars for twelve of the little ones yep, from those
Dogyk road dearies. And now I think those bigger ones
by the five kilos and they're like fifty or sixty dollars,
so a lot more bang for your buck. Are real
short high like five seconds.

Speaker 2 (32:38):
Tensing hundreds of them.

Speaker 6 (32:40):
Yeah, yeah, I know, it's it's it's it's well what
I thought that floods your brain with oxygen, That's what
I heard, but I don't know, but yeah, it's not
good for you, and it's like it drives all your
lungs at you popped all along them.

Speaker 5 (32:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (32:56):
But yeah, who's your book coming out?

Speaker 21 (32:59):
Murd up my book?

Speaker 2 (33:01):
What would what would the title be?

Speaker 5 (33:05):
Oh, I don't know.

Speaker 6 (33:06):
It'll be interesting.

Speaker 2 (33:07):
That's a good that's a good time. It'll be interesting.
I like that. Yeah, I don't know, but it'll be interesting.

Speaker 5 (33:12):
I'll let you know.

Speaker 2 (33:14):
Reagand Marcus welcome.

Speaker 21 (33:16):
Hey Marcus, there you go.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
Man, good, thank you.

Speaker 21 (33:18):
I used to listen to you back and then I'll
watch you on news smash or what if it say,
a nightline in the nineties some time ago. Hey, that's good.

Speaker 2 (33:27):
I can remember the name of the program, you know,
History of Time.

Speaker 5 (33:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 21 (33:32):
Anyway, So your nangs are pretty nasty, so nitrous oxide.
It replaces the oxygen and pretty much suffocates your brain,
which is why you feel pretty high. It's a it's
laughing guess. That's what people refer to it as. And
I think I've had a bit of experience with it.
So when you have something, you have a hit on it,

(33:54):
and in your talk your always goes right right, or
it goes all strange and it makes you laugh, and
it's it's one of those funny things that kids do.
I remember doing it a little bit when not younger,
but yeah when I had we had our first kid
back in the late nineties. They still do it, and
they give it to you in the hospital and it's

(34:16):
not for the not for the partners, but they just
let the partners stuck away on it as well. So
it's mixed with oxygen and it's a mild anesthetic. And yeah,
me and my partner man, we smashed it and we
went through a whole whole tank of it and they
replaced it as well.

Speaker 2 (34:31):
During the birth process.

Speaker 21 (34:32):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, we had fun. So, yeah, we
just had a ball, both of us. It's like we're
just passing back and forward for about eight hours. Probably
killed a few brain cells in the process.

Speaker 2 (34:41):
I'd the mid I'd love to hear them from the
midwives of that is that's within the hospital.

Speaker 3 (34:46):
Is it?

Speaker 9 (34:46):
Yeah?

Speaker 13 (34:47):
The hostel?

Speaker 21 (34:47):
Yeah, yeah, they just turned blind. They don't care.

Speaker 2 (34:49):
Well, I don't know about that. I will actually see
if we can hear some midwives of because it sounds
slightly sketchy to me. But anyway, look, thank you for
keep in touch if you want to. Eight hundred and
eighty ten eighty Hi Marcus. In the weekend, I saw
two young kids driving free fast pimy. That's on Pinrose
Road in Auckland. When I look closely, they were blowing
up balloons. I was going to called triple five hash.
But the last time when I called for instant the report, Oh,

(35:10):
the person on the line didn't know where market rode
off remp was. Well, that's fine, but they know where
the market rode on rent was. That's the tricky one
because there is no one ramp yep, that's the trick
and market road. You can come off, but you can't
get on Hittle twelve one of us markets. Welcome eight

(35:33):
hundred and eighty ten eighty. It's like the Hotel California.
Something interesting this day in history. I forget what it was. Oh,
I think nineteen sixty Bary Crump released a good king Man.
Oh Fat checked that and we're talking about nitrous oxide
and side eyed. It's interesting for possums. I had that,

(35:54):
guess when I had my wisdom teeth out, my mind
went up to the ceiling and looked down on myself. Horrible.
There you go, be in touch if you want to
be if you want to be a part of the
show here till midnight tonight if you want to partake,
Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty nine nine to text.
It's a pretty interesting texts. I don't know why that

(36:18):
someone said, oh dear, how lovely it was that meant
for me. It's a weird text. I can't kind of
crack that one. By the way, Iran has been struck
by a four point three quake at the Ganesh region,
and Iran has held a mess feudal for one hundred
and sixty five people in cleaning students who died during
the first day of the text on the weekend. We're
talking when you have been offered nitrous oxide and you're

(36:40):
legitimately which I'm kind of curious to know about dentists
and birth. I don't I find that surprising about the birth,
but I'm sure we'll hear more about that the next hour.
Hit till twelve. Good evening, all mana, Miss Marcus, welcome.
We are talking night to so oxide. And because I'd
never really thought about that. With Samuel Coleridge getting into it,

(37:01):
he was the guy that right the rom of the
ancient mariner you all know, and it became a big thing.
I don't know how it was invented and how they
manufeit well over their manufactured communcially differently these days. But
what I was curious, So we had a call to
hang over the news. But he's gone. I was curious though,
who had experienced that in birthing swites, because I mean
often heard stories about that. I don't know if that's
a reality or not, or that's sort of but yeah,

(37:25):
that's what we are talking about tonight. Also to updates
when we've got it about Iran anything else you don't
want to talk about. But I've enjoyed the discussion now
as you're the discussion about the nangs. Found it quite informative.
Now the United States Department of Evacuations of Non Immergency Personnel

(37:47):
and there's a word that I oh and family now
includes United Arab Emirates. That's the situation. Marcus always given
notes So oxide wind in labor that was nineteen eighty
one at Berwood Hospital, Christ which it made me sick.
I had guess for both my birth so I can
see my husband laughing his head off at me from
his share. Oh yes, they must have handed it around.

(38:09):
My parents and Grandma told stories of laughing guests when
they had their teeth out. Mum was twelve, they laughed.
A family recent tea. So I can't rery that no
punctuation use and soda stream you to make your rate
of drinks vala at all department stores Briscoes. Yeah, I
think we all know what it is. I think we
all know available. I think we all know what it is.

(38:29):
I think we all know that it's also good, laughing guest.
I think we also know that it used to make
whipped creams. So I think we're across that. But if
you want to talk on air about this, and also too,
if you're a retailer and they say you don't have
to sell it to people, but you know who's gonna
get into an argument with someone just for a ten
dollar purchase? Interest about sinide impossums of course, now with

(38:49):
cyanide trappings changed so much that they don't use sini,
I think it's probably terrifying to use and probably terrifying
of other people and dogs and things found that also,
So you come through if you want to talk on air,
my name is Marcus. Welcome, oh eight hundred and eighty
ten eighty. We'll keep you updated with news throughout the
course of the next two hours fifty minutes if you

(39:12):
want to be a part of it, looking forward to
what you've got to say. Yeah, Laurie, this is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 8 (39:18):
Hi Marcus. Hey with the niros oxide. I don't know,
one of the great stories. You know, it's probably the
first of the New Zealand Warrior's cult heroes. You remember
the player. He was called Ocassini or.

Speaker 2 (39:35):
And he ran with his head down here.

Speaker 8 (39:40):
Well, the story is apparently when he was born in
Samore in the Verthing suite, his wife was ministered to
some nitros oxide and they took that as a name.

Speaker 2 (39:53):
Quite a good name too. He was the original cult warrior,
wasn't he.

Speaker 8 (39:58):
Oh yeah, charging down the peddic with a good team.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
But yeah, very and always with his head bit leant
forward with those long sort of mu before the mullet time.
I hadn't thought of his name, but you're quite right,
that's right.

Speaker 5 (40:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (40:10):
He ended up playing an England I think, and coaching
up in Carlisle I think, and had quite a career
up there. But yeah, the name was always so so impressive.

Speaker 2 (40:25):
Have you done have you done nitress recreationally? In your days, Lorry.

Speaker 8 (40:29):
I haven't, I haven't. But the other thing you were
talking about was the emeral night trate, you know, which
was the antidote for.

Speaker 22 (40:36):
The the.

Speaker 9 (40:40):
Possum. Yeah.

Speaker 8 (40:43):
Yeah, I've got a little ampuel here of it from
one of my old first aid kits. We used to
be issued with it when we're working in serving an
areas where there might might be cyanide around and sorry,
was you know, indvertently somebody got a whisp of that,
then you had to get hold of this these ampules
of emeral night trates.

Speaker 2 (41:04):
How would how would how could poss some hunters use
it safely not knowing anyone's going to discover it? It
seems like an incredibly dangerous thing to you? Or did
it have a half life to the decompose?

Speaker 8 (41:15):
I think it's supposed to decompose after a while, but
I mean occasionally, if you know, and these are guys
that weren't doing it properly, you know, they'd smear it
onto you know, stumps and that around the place, and
you know, invertedly, if you're didn't keep your eyes open,
you're doing something else, you could supposedly come in contact
with it.

Speaker 2 (41:32):
It would have to have to be in very remote places,
wouldn't it.

Speaker 8 (41:36):
Yeah, well, that's sorry, that's I supposedly we're licensed to
use it and they're supposed to put up signs. But
always have we We were doing a lot of work
up around the Ye Marino area. It was Crown l
and that was being surveyed off and there was a
lot of bush tracks and stuff like that.

Speaker 2 (41:56):
That's just the west coast south area.

Speaker 8 (41:57):
Is that where one Marina No, no, no one Marina
knows well what the renamed National Park.

Speaker 9 (42:02):
Copy ye understand, but it was marketed under the.

Speaker 8 (42:05):
Name also of vapor Rol the A P O R
O L E. And that had uses as well. It
could be you know, for I think I've still got
the pamphlet in there from if I supposedly if you
come across somebody that had it had a stroke or

(42:25):
something like that. Yes, bringing people around anyway, but it's
supposed disupposedly his supposed to be finished, given a cool
place in the expiry days nineteen ninety two.

Speaker 2 (42:43):
Yeah, okay, Laura, if we don't hear tomorrow, know what's
happened to you. Thank you, Papa Marcus.

Speaker 9 (42:47):
Welcome, Hi Marcus.

Speaker 23 (42:51):
You show quite often I'm just going to pull over. Yes, hey,
I'm a new promise. I just didn't passed that count building.
Did you say there was an American bag going on it.

Speaker 2 (43:02):
There's been a fuss because they flew on that. Has
you Plymouth got a district council and a local council?
They've got two councils, have they?

Speaker 23 (43:12):
So we've only got one big council building? Is their
smack in town. I've just driven passed down the one
way and I didn't see a flag. But I do
know that some I think convents, So some people were
a bit a bit disappointed with that flag flying. I
guess it's enough reason why I get it, so I
get it.

Speaker 11 (43:31):
I sort of he didn't like.

Speaker 23 (43:33):
See people walking there with Americans band downage around there.
He's on the flag. I don't like that. But anyway,
that's their buzz, not my buzz. But it's good to
see the cars.

Speaker 3 (43:40):
It's to see.

Speaker 2 (43:42):
My only point was that I was making is that
I always thought you Plymouth had at a reputation as
sort of woe man and sort of been a town
that was quite enlightened. But the last five ten years,
so many stories have come out from sort of councilors
trying to just wind people up. I think it's detracting
from I mean, this is only my opinion, but I

(44:05):
think it's giving the area of bad reputation. And maybe
people have you Plymouth a fine with it, but it
does as an outsider looking in, it does change your
view on you Plymouth.

Speaker 23 (44:19):
You're correct there. I've been in Australia, been all over
the place. I came back and I didn't like the
feeling that it was here. I do know people have
left Destiny Pummouth because they didn't agree with what's going
on here.

Speaker 3 (44:33):
I get it.

Speaker 2 (44:34):
It just seems has become a bit of a red
neck town.

Speaker 7 (44:37):
It is.

Speaker 24 (44:38):
I'm glad.

Speaker 23 (44:39):
I'm glad you said it's a red neck town. Our
council a read. It's just so dreadful here, and a
lot of it's got to do with well, look, they're
not going to like this farming. Yeah, it's a red necktown.
And I better get off the radio because people here
in New Plymouth are very sensitive about called read.

Speaker 2 (44:56):
Okay, well yeah, I just think I just think if
they want to become a place that tourists come and
visit as a place, you know, because they've done some
great work with it, great parks, great things. But yeah,
all I'm saying is when you continually get in the
headlines for these sorts of stories, it does change people's
attitudes about the town. And I've been a huge New
Plymouth defender for a long time. But yeah, hello, Darren,

(45:19):
it's Marcus.

Speaker 5 (45:20):
Welcome Marcus. How are you mate?

Speaker 25 (45:23):
Good?

Speaker 2 (45:23):
Thank you Darren.

Speaker 5 (45:25):
And not treat animal, not trait.

Speaker 21 (45:28):
We just call it trait.

Speaker 2 (45:30):
Are your possum trapper? Were you a possum trepper?

Speaker 6 (45:35):
No?

Speaker 5 (45:35):
No, this is a nightclub.

Speaker 18 (45:37):
We got the playing nightclub.

Speaker 2 (45:43):
They'll get lady yet.

Speaker 20 (45:47):
Yeah, exactly, we're talking.

Speaker 2 (45:51):
We're talking the mid eighties, aren't we Is that right?

Speaker 8 (45:54):
Oh?

Speaker 20 (45:55):
They probably early nineties?

Speaker 5 (46:00):
You know we didn't.

Speaker 2 (46:02):
They have New Zealand's most expensive laser light show half
a million or something.

Speaker 5 (46:08):
Oh it's fantastic.

Speaker 20 (46:09):
That steers and he stepped on it into its tables.

Speaker 5 (46:13):
It quite It was a covel so you see.

Speaker 2 (46:18):
I think did it last as long as nineteen ninety two?

Speaker 5 (46:22):
Oh no, I went for a long time. Yeah, well,
are going to.

Speaker 2 (46:26):
Run with a whole animal? I think it's called amal
night trait, not animal night. Trap.

Speaker 19 (46:30):
But I enjoyed that, Darren, but well and told you
what happened with it. Okay, yeah it was, he'd probably,
but there's too so I hope we.

Speaker 2 (46:41):
Might leave it there because I'm not not quite sure
we were going to go with that. But anyway, keep
it going if you do want to talk. Seventeen past nine, Yeah, Ruben,
this is Marcus. Good evening and welcome.

Speaker 9 (46:53):
Jordo.

Speaker 10 (46:53):
Marcus calling from Nomo to Taranaki and Nomo two is
the alternative official name for well, one of our two
official names here and you come us and we have
had a brilliant weekend of Americana. Absolutely sensational, brilliant event. However, Elma,

(47:15):
who's not that politically savvy, he has walked into this
and cast a big shadow over the event. There's no
need to fly the American flag on for Americana. We've
never done it before. I believe this is the eighteenth
iteration of Americana. And because of the local sort of

(47:41):
car lobby who the Mere is part of, they thought
it would be a good idea to fly the American
flag late last week and then what does Trump do?
Bombs around and just I mean, you could have just
seen it happening, and he's just not very politically a stud.

Speaker 2 (48:01):
And Reuben, I've got a lot of texts people say,
oh well you don't have to cut come you know,
oh well, what's wrong with rednecks? I have your plymouth
can do what it likes. But what I do know
is that when you are in a small small town
and the only headlines you get forever counselors saying weird

(48:23):
things are doing weird things. It affects your reputation. I
feel sorry for the people in your tourist bureau trying
to take people to new plymouths. They've got so much there,
but the only stories that come out of there are
stories of people doing silly things or kind of misjudged things.

Speaker 10 (48:38):
And yeah, mist judgment and necess theory and of course
the you know, the mirror end the deputy. The deputy
mirror is the one that's been responsible for all the
other bad publicity was head over the last ten years.
And you know now that they are the joy running
the city.

Speaker 2 (48:55):
So deeply realize that the that the effect that all
the I suspect some small town councilors they get a
kick out every time they get the name in the paper.
But there are consequences for it.

Speaker 10 (49:09):
That's right, absolutely right, And I don't think he would
realize that. He think he would be doing the God's work.

Speaker 2 (49:16):
I suspect, Yeah, what is American? He just to take you?
Is it like the beat chop? You take your American
cars in your drive around?

Speaker 21 (49:22):
Is it? Yeah?

Speaker 9 (49:24):
But they do, I mean to be scared.

Speaker 10 (49:25):
They do try, and you know, because it does the
novelty of these all events does We're off to look
at the sevens has evens had twenty.

Speaker 2 (49:32):
Great years and you've got to keep you got to
freshen them.

Speaker 10 (49:36):
So John Ray, the man behind it, he's done a
lot of good work with it, and he does some
excellent work around like bringing wood chopping and another sort
of subsidiary type links to go along with it. And
so he's trying to do it every year. But you know, yeah,
it's a great event. But yeah, the problem with the

(49:59):
car community is that they're all a little bit sort
of grievance minded, and they are all sort of saying that,
you know, my event is better than your event, and
they sort of say, we're our event brings in more money,
so it's better than your Tomata tinney that we had
this year well last year, which was absolutely fantastic as well,

(50:21):
a lot of that sort of going on.

Speaker 2 (50:22):
It's a great it's a great term of phrase, grievance minded.

Speaker 9 (50:26):
I like that.

Speaker 10 (50:26):
You're welcome, Marcus.

Speaker 21 (50:27):
You're gable to borrow up today in time, I can have.

Speaker 2 (50:30):
It, brilliant Ruben, thank you for that. Eight hundred and
eighty ten eighty and ninety nine the text twenty three
past nine. Yeah, and that's fine, and we could leave
with there. I just I just probably thought I did
to say that, you know that that people look at
those stories and think, hang on, what's going on there?
And the words count Bob, Marcus welcome.

Speaker 5 (50:49):
Yeah, I don't Marcus. I didn't get to any fish
and finished then Retina have I got a huge salmon
the statue and they had a competition on the weekend,
four hundred people salmon fishing and not one fish was caught.

Speaker 2 (51:04):
That's bad.

Speaker 5 (51:05):
What has happened to our rivers or what just happened
to our fish?

Speaker 2 (51:08):
I saw something about that. They thought that might happen
because because but I know green Peace put eyes on
the fish, because I knew the river was shot and
everyone kicked up about that, but they're probably right.

Speaker 5 (51:22):
Yeah, well I know, but it's funny that one hundred
people couldn't catch one.

Speaker 2 (51:27):
That's fair? Well, is it night rates?

Speaker 5 (51:34):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (51:36):
Did you catch your Did you catch your fish?

Speaker 5 (51:39):
And I never seen any as one?

Speaker 2 (51:41):
Did you go further year up there at the twizl?

Speaker 5 (51:43):
Did you get you? And I went to twindle?

Speaker 2 (51:46):
Did you catch a fish there?

Speaker 5 (51:49):
I never even dream one.

Speaker 2 (51:51):
You don't see them when you're catching them. Did you
try the plastic eggs like Clark Gayford users?

Speaker 5 (51:55):
I tried every human but the only thing I didn't
do was swim after them.

Speaker 2 (52:00):
But you've got no you've got no stick ability. How
long did you last?

Speaker 5 (52:05):
Yeah? But how how if I've got no stickability? That
means four hundred?

Speaker 2 (52:11):
How long did you you? Probably says that it could
be an excuse to go to the ta everything on
that set off to the place and beds.

Speaker 5 (52:18):
Well, I did. Actually I was watching.

Speaker 2 (52:23):
People fish outside our place, right yep. Do you know
anything about fishing?

Speaker 5 (52:31):
Yeah, and put a bit of a thing on my
line and I in the order.

Speaker 2 (52:36):
And the fishing now at low tide through the celt beds.
Because I always thought there'd be a no no, because
you'd lose your lure as you wheeled in. But they
must just have really strong breaking strain and they're catching
fish and pulling them up through the kelt beds. Yeah,
I think that's the last place they would have gone.

Speaker 5 (52:55):
I'm going to a beach called Boards, Oh yeah, on
State Board.

Speaker 7 (52:58):
Yep.

Speaker 9 (52:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (52:59):
Well I'm going there next week and try some surfcasting down.
It's both to be quite good, but we'll wait and see.
But I'm just amazed that four hundred people could go
pushing on a river that's renowned for its salmon and
not one get caught.

Speaker 2 (53:12):
Well, they better think of something different next year. That's
another fistal that's gone, isn't it.

Speaker 5 (53:16):
Yeah, So that's that's all I have to find that matter.

Speaker 2 (53:19):
Okay, that's okay, Thank you, Thank you for John, Marcus,
Thanks Bob. I've got a good mind to go fishing
with Bob myself. You want to apply to John, to
Bob John, it's Marcus John.

Speaker 24 (53:33):
You're oh sorry, sorry, Marcus.

Speaker 20 (53:36):
Cheers.

Speaker 24 (53:37):
Listen. I'm a bit of an old bugger, but I'm
pretty certain the reason why the salmon having made you
trouble in our fish is because we've had too much
rain and suiting up like we've headed in christ Church
and all other parts of New Zealand, and that would

(54:00):
give them a big shock. Yeah, we used to have
farms up there, the ranked potato. We've got them there
because I used to a lot of people didn't know
that they were there and they were sort of holding pins.
When I was in the fishing industry, so I had
a lot to do with the salmon. And yeah, it's

(54:25):
very hard. I think it's too much fresh water coming
through and the silt's not good for their their gills.

Speaker 2 (54:33):
Yeah, okay, although looking at the story, I don't even
know if they even went out fishing. Did They'm looking
at that story, it says for the first time in
forty years, no fisher weight at the Rakaia Fishing compliss
over the weekend to Wofy, no numbers of seven in
the river. The small farming township was once famous, but
the number of sea run salmon, Harmana, trout, Tata and
other product life and the rivers Rassi Klein. The forder

(54:53):
people ended the classic commis instead vibe for it, Lucky dripped.
Did they even go up? Did they even go out fishing.
It's not clear in that article he said it was
a tough call to make.

Speaker 4 (55:02):
What was the call?

Speaker 2 (55:03):
I better read more about that. Actually, I think they
might have been told not to go on fish. Yeah,
that's what I understood, is a Bob might have actually
not so much patient in the article either. But I'm
hearing your bob. I'll look more into that, Bob. Yeah,
strange on things fishing comm They're always corrupt fishing competitions,
aren't theyre always people got fish out of the freezer
and stuff. Get in touch, you want to be a

(55:28):
part of it, enduring the discussion. This kind of feels
about full moon, in which I enjoy. So at midnight
there's going to be a blood moon. It's like a sunrise,
so the rays are getting reflected and they're casting. I
don't know. I don't know. If I don't know if
every lunar eclipse is a blood moon. That's a bit
I can't tell. I can't be bothered googling it, and

(55:50):
I don't trust AI. But if anyone could tell me
about that, because we never talked about blood moons, but
all eclipses blood moons, because surely every moon that's in
the shadow of the Earth would be prone to the
same physics, if that made any sense. But I don't
know all I don't know if it's just a flash

(56:12):
name for an eclipse, the blood moon, blah blah blah.
By the way, just to heads up for those people
from greb One, they should rename it Griboni because it
does look the same aa and I always thought that
thought they should be doing it anyway, It's up to them.
Pete Marcus, welcome, good evening.

Speaker 26 (56:31):
Yes, good evening, Marcus. I'm just looking at a beautiful
big moon.

Speaker 2 (56:37):
Oh yeah, has it got any color in it?

Speaker 27 (56:40):
No?

Speaker 26 (56:40):
No, it's it's normal magnificent fallness though, and it's rising
up in the east here I'm bringing from New Plymouth,
and it is a truly spectacular site. But no, there's
no there's no read this about at that moment, so
it hasn't reached a center for those that are going
to wake up for it. But I'm not gonna bother. Look, well,

(57:03):
I'm a bit concerned to know. I've heard a few
of your speakers are having a crack at New Plymouth's
council and tearing necking in general.

Speaker 2 (57:14):
Now you're not They're not having they're not having a
crack at it. They're saying that they're the story. The
only stories we seem to read about New Plymouth are
about counselors saying odd things or doing strange things. They're
not having a crack about New Plymouth.

Speaker 26 (57:28):
So well, if they're saying the councilor is doing odd
things and everything.

Speaker 2 (57:33):
Else, they're saying the only stories we get to read.
Because you know what it's like when you consume national media, right,
there are many stories you get that you get your
local daily, daily news or whatever, you get all this,
but the only stories that seem to be making it
getting the national attention. There's no good stories. It's always
about counselors doing dark things. So and that's if you're

(57:56):
happy with it, that's fine.

Speaker 26 (57:58):
I'm not having Well, that's selective journalism, that's what it is.

Speaker 2 (58:01):
It's no, it's not because the way the algorithms work. Now,
those are the story worries that travel. The stories about
about people doing silly things are the ones that people
click on and repost. That's just the world we're living in.

Speaker 26 (58:15):
Well, what a what an object lot we are?

Speaker 21 (58:18):
And don't we know?

Speaker 26 (58:19):
I don't like to think that way, Marcus. But I
just like to say that that Americana was a magnificent success.
The whole province gets behind it. Every little town all
around the mount of get behind it. It is truly
magnificent and it takes a hell of a lot of organizing.

(58:40):
And this year we had six hundred and fifty cars.
It's a pretty good effort.

Speaker 2 (58:44):
Wow, any electric cars, No, I don't think so.

Speaker 26 (58:49):
You know, who would bother with an electric car?

Speaker 2 (58:52):
And there you go pretty much sums it up. A
keep in touch, oh, eight hundred and eighty ten, eight
nineteen nine to the text you want to be a
part of it, twenty seven away from ten, looking forward
to your calls back in a bit, twelve oh eight
hundred you know the rest. Eight hundred eighty ten eighty Reagan,
it's Marcus. Good evening, good evening, who does good? Thank

(59:14):
you good.

Speaker 22 (59:16):
I was just ringing about the salmon and the fire.
There were a few fish courts, but this year. I've
been going in the competition for thirty years, and they
are because of the declining numbers. They decided that there
were no fish to be weih in, so they encouraged
to catch a release.

Speaker 2 (59:37):
Oh great, great answer. Yeah, did you say you've competed
thirty years Reagan?

Speaker 5 (59:42):
That's correct?

Speaker 3 (59:43):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (59:43):
How far does ittt? Do you go the whole length
of the river from the mouth to the headwaters? You
can fish anyway for salmon?

Speaker 27 (59:50):
Is that right?

Speaker 26 (59:52):
Correct?

Speaker 5 (59:52):
Pretty much?

Speaker 22 (59:53):
So there is a cutoff point right at the top
of the headwaters there some white posts that you can't
fish fast.

Speaker 2 (59:59):
Because that's the spawning ground, is it?

Speaker 22 (01:00:02):
It was was fish spawning?

Speaker 9 (01:00:04):
Ye.

Speaker 2 (01:00:06):
It was quite a big event in its day, was it?

Speaker 26 (01:00:08):
Absolutely?

Speaker 5 (01:00:09):
Yeah?

Speaker 22 (01:00:09):
No, And I do feel sorry for the town because
it was a great community event and brought a lot
of money into the town.

Speaker 2 (01:00:16):
And I don't know much about semon fishing. Do the
overseas fanatics come across for that or is it just
trout for them? Or do you get people internationally?

Speaker 22 (01:00:26):
Absolutely they did when the salmon numbers were there. Yeah,
it was a huge drug card. Yeah, now mainly the trout.
And I think if you're an international trible Yeah. The
canals is where the trophy fish are at.

Speaker 3 (01:00:40):
So what did you say, the canals?

Speaker 2 (01:00:44):
But the fishing game with salmon, can you release the
young ones or doesn't work like that? Is a different
kind of equation.

Speaker 9 (01:00:52):
Well they did.

Speaker 22 (01:00:54):
There was hatcheries back in the day, and they read
and release the court and released them. And they tried
releasing some new fish that were bred for the barns
at Twysaor and Tickapo and the canals. They tried releasing them,
but they haven't successfully returned as well as the original stop.

(01:01:18):
I think maybe because I farmed salmon genetics or something.
I'm not too sure.

Speaker 2 (01:01:24):
Okay, good and tell thanks very Regan, Tom Marcus, Good evening, Tom,
and listen.

Speaker 4 (01:01:32):
I would like to say I just said to you
before about harbur fishing, but I hang on with the
trout fishing and your salmon fishing and ealing and all
that sort of thing. I did for years and years,
and I used to catch. I used to go up
the streams and et cetera with a garden fork and

(01:01:55):
i'd have a torch and I would spare silver belly
eels with the garden fork and I put them in
the ground, et cetera. And I used to go at nighttime,
like early evening, and I'd get at least if I
wanted half a dozen silver bellley eels. And I used
to drop them off at the around the neighborhood and

(01:02:17):
just dropped them off on the front lawnes of all
of all the maories that I knew, on top of
which trout we can't find the trout, et cetera, in
the in the rivers and the tiree and that sort
of thing, or even the salmon no more. And it's
because of this has happened in quite a few years

(01:02:39):
now it's even getting worse. And what started all of
this was when they took away the queen's chain. Remember
this queen's chain, were you, Tom, I'm down here in Dunedin. Now,
they took away the queen's chain. And what happened there was,

(01:03:00):
of course, and I'm not saying this is a farmer's fault,
but how there's all that stuff there.

Speaker 3 (01:03:06):
But the thing that is really.

Speaker 2 (01:03:08):
Saying that you're saying they far most much closer to
the river now, is that the answer?

Speaker 4 (01:03:13):
Yes, yes, they go right up to the right up
to the to the river now, right up the streams
et cetera, because they've taken away the queen's chain.

Speaker 2 (01:03:22):
Interesting point, Tom, thank you for making it. Oh wait
one hundred and eighty Marcus, good evening.

Speaker 13 (01:03:29):
OHI Marcus, Oh I'm glad Reagan cleared that up about
the salmon. I thought it'd be some broad environmental thing.
I mean, fish are pretty fickle at the best of times.
You don't always catch something, you know. But what I
rang up about was the blood moon.

Speaker 9 (01:03:46):
Yes.

Speaker 13 (01:03:47):
Easy, it's when the Earth moves directly between the Sun
and the moon, so it's fully in the Earth's shadow
and the blood red color.

Speaker 2 (01:03:57):
Hang on, isn't that any eclipse?

Speaker 3 (01:03:59):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (01:04:00):
Well, it is.

Speaker 2 (01:04:00):
It isn't eclipse, That's what I'm saying. All eclipses blood moons.
That's a question.

Speaker 13 (01:04:04):
No, I don't know what actually makes the blood moon,
but I know the color is from the sunlight filtering.

Speaker 2 (01:04:16):
So therefore every refracting. Therefore every eclipse would be a
blood moon, because every eclipse has got is subject to
the same refraction, because.

Speaker 13 (01:04:23):
That's only it's a total lunar of clips. Not quite
for the different.

Speaker 2 (01:04:28):
Yeah, but I wasn't quite because yeah, oh, I say, yeah,
are you staying.

Speaker 13 (01:04:35):
Up for it?

Speaker 5 (01:04:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 13 (01:04:38):
I think I'll clip your arm on and have a
lot bosed. I think it's four minutes past twelve. Yeah,
I don't know that much about astronomer.

Speaker 2 (01:04:48):
No, it lasts a while too you get your do
you get a moment of totality? You don't like the
I want to see a solo one because that's that's wacky.
Because the animals stop, That's what I think they all
go to sleep. Eighteen away from ten, let's have a
break away eight eighty. I think the real question is
what does the Earth look like from the Moon during

(01:05:11):
a lunar eclipse? Shame there's no astronauts on the Moon
at the moment. Haven't been for a while now, have there?
Fifty six years? Lynn, Marcus Good evening? Fifty five years?

Speaker 25 (01:05:22):
Hi Marcus. I've just had a look out my window.
I'm in christ Church and it's a very big, clear
night here and I've seen to a photo or I
don't know whether you can see it.

Speaker 2 (01:05:40):
How did you send it?

Speaker 9 (01:05:42):
I just sent it as a.

Speaker 25 (01:05:45):
Message to you on messenger. Oh wow, and it's as
clear as anything.

Speaker 4 (01:05:51):
It's a big moon.

Speaker 2 (01:05:54):
Okay, I haven't got that yet. Oh seene it by
email if you can, Lynn, But thank you, Chris. It's
Marcus good Evening.

Speaker 9 (01:06:04):
Hey Marcus, how are you doing tonight?

Speaker 2 (01:06:06):
Thank you?

Speaker 9 (01:06:06):
Chris good looking forward to that moon. But I wanted
to talk to you about amal nitrate.

Speaker 28 (01:06:11):
Sure there.

Speaker 9 (01:06:12):
Used to be an inspector in my earlier days, and
I used to go around with the Department of Labor
inspecting workplaces. And one of the other places that you
can have cyanide poisoning and poisoning is in the electroplating
workshops that coat things with copper and brass and silver, etc.
So that's another area where you can be poisoned by

(01:06:33):
cyanide very easily. And we used to go around and
we'd check their amal night rate capsules that have to
have them there because if they had cyanide gas that
was exposed to a worker, they'd collapse in their heart
would go into the fib and you'd have to use
these ampules of amal night rate to put under their nose.

(01:06:53):
And I remember a very well a well known place
in the month or two that I inspected and we
had a look at their animal night rate storage area
and their office which is part of their first aid.
It was all missing, and I said, what's going on,
and the guy said, the blokes are using it for sex.
They take it away and use it to have sex
because it helps sort of like oxygen back into the system.

(01:07:18):
Because cyanide takes the oxygen out of out of the heart,
creates real issues and more night trate brings it back again.
So interesting one.

Speaker 2 (01:07:27):
What's the cyanide? Is it produced as a cyanide gas
produced as a.

Speaker 9 (01:07:35):
Byprodatols they use in the in the electroplating process. It's
also used in the gold mining industry with the gold
out of the rocks.

Speaker 2 (01:07:44):
What's the electrocreating plating process? What's the chemical equation that's happening.

Speaker 9 (01:07:50):
I'm not sure what.

Speaker 2 (01:07:54):
If you're doing it wrong or it's not properly ventilated.

Speaker 9 (01:07:57):
Yes, then you can have a build up of gas
and someone can be exposed to it. So you've got
to have really good ventilation systems working in the The
mixt of chemicals has to be correct otherwise you'll end
up producing cyanide gas. So that's that's what we used
to look out for many years ago.

Speaker 2 (01:08:16):
And I presume they still do, do they?

Speaker 9 (01:08:18):
I believe?

Speaker 22 (01:08:18):
So?

Speaker 9 (01:08:19):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:08:19):
And did people use it, Chris, did they use it
for that purpose? Did that happen often that they wouldn't
need to take it?

Speaker 9 (01:08:25):
Well, that was the only occasion I saw. I saw
the funny side in that case. If someone really needed
it in an emergency that wouldn't have been.

Speaker 2 (01:08:34):
So the only time you saw it was that it
was used recreationally, if we can call it that.

Speaker 9 (01:08:38):
That's right. Yeah, So they ended up locking it in
the end, which created other issues locking up sort of
life saving equipment.

Speaker 2 (01:08:44):
Exactly. Okay, to talk Chris, thank you. According to the
BBC stats, four thousand flights canceled daily across the Middle East.
Moon will start to dimming about fifteen minutes, then start
going read about eleven pm. We'll go, well, you start
doing about now. It was text fifteen, so it's dimming
going read about eleven twelve to eleven ten nine from

(01:09:10):
ten David, It's Marcus. Good evening and welcome.

Speaker 29 (01:09:14):
Hi Marcus. This is David, the Brisbane Broncos supporter.

Speaker 3 (01:09:20):
Great.

Speaker 2 (01:09:23):
Remember you remember I don't Yeah, I don't remember everycall,
but yeah, it's nice to hear from you.

Speaker 29 (01:09:29):
Yeah, because remember how I was using the Brisbane Broncos
for a savings account.

Speaker 2 (01:09:37):
Yeah, you were begging them to finish in the top eight.

Speaker 13 (01:09:41):
Is it right?

Speaker 29 (01:09:42):
I've got top eight and they won the bloody thing.

Speaker 2 (01:09:45):
Yeah. It seemed like a strange way to go about
your bank account. But anyway, so.

Speaker 29 (01:09:52):
Because the season is just starting up again, so I
might try it again.

Speaker 2 (01:10:00):
Well, I think they'll do well. Did you watch the
league in the weekend.

Speaker 29 (01:10:05):
I haven't seen in the league of the seasons are
starting up and all that sort of thing. But I
will be getting into it. And but the main thing
I was talking run to bring up about was I'm
very concerned about this war that's going on. Tell me more, Well,

(01:10:28):
I'm just concerned about it.

Speaker 2 (01:10:31):
Yeah, I think everyone's concerned about it too. So yeah,
I'm just trying to I'm just trying to get the
discussion moved a bit forward because obviously I'm trying to
run a show.

Speaker 29 (01:10:40):
Okay, yeah, I understand. But do you think that that
could possibly get out of control? You know, they think
they might start setting off nuclear weapons or anything like that.

Speaker 2 (01:10:57):
Well, I think the latest thing that I've been reading
about is that, I mean, Iran is in a position
where they need to do whatever they can to disrupt
and there's talk of that they'll be targeting nuclear facilities
in some of the other states for generating power and
the likes, but they also might target water reservoirs and
water treatment plants. So who knows which way it'll go.

Speaker 29 (01:11:20):
Yeah, it's terrible.

Speaker 2 (01:11:22):
Oh yeah, it's caused for real concern, real concern, David.
But yeah, why do you just get a bank account
for your money?

Speaker 29 (01:11:29):
A bank account?

Speaker 2 (01:11:30):
Yeah, because you use the TB as a bank, don't you.

Speaker 29 (01:11:36):
A bank?

Speaker 5 (01:11:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 29 (01:11:38):
Yeah, I'll bet the Brisbane broncos I didn't know they
were going to win the whole competition.

Speaker 2 (01:11:46):
Well, you must have had an inkling. Where are you?

Speaker 5 (01:11:51):
Who am I?

Speaker 2 (01:11:52):
Where are you? Ivan tighter only voices in the back?
But thanks, David, I'm going to move on. Den it's Marcus.

Speaker 5 (01:12:00):
Good evening, good aid Marcus. Hey, look, Karanaki. I spent
five years down there at boarding schools, the greatest place
on earth, and it was in the eighties, and so
I think you had a last caller about you know,
a little bit of bith about the meares and all that.

(01:12:20):
Ah Lok. Doesn't matter. It's still a great place down there.

Speaker 2 (01:12:23):
No one's doubting it's a good place. I'm just surprised
at the messaging they're getting.

Speaker 8 (01:12:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:12:30):
Yeah, but that's not the main issue is that it
was when I was down there in the early eighties,
we saw the full red moon. You know, the full,
the full one. And it was interesting that it was
during school and we had the science guy who told
us that was going to be tonight and it was
about the blue light, the blue light being taken out

(01:12:51):
and it would be you'll see the red coming through.
And anyway, we watched it that night. I can't remember
it was. It was just a beautiful because you know,
Taranny has the best moons over Fitzroy beats coming up
and over there, and it was just no smakingficent red moon.
I remember, so, yeah, I'm going to stay up, timber.

Speaker 2 (01:13:11):
Remember the eclipses of my childhood. I remember the Oh yeah,
maybe I do. I just don't think we ever called
them blood moons.

Speaker 5 (01:13:17):
But blood moon, yeah, blood moon, Sorry, not a red moon.

Speaker 2 (01:13:21):
I called it's no red moon blood moon, but I
just said, we called it on a lunar eclipse. But
now it's all about the blood moon and the color.
They're focusing on the color.

Speaker 5 (01:13:28):
So here's the thing. It's a total and I only
can happen during a total lunar eclipse. I left doctor
google it again, but but I just remember there was
a signus at school saying, hey, look watch it tonight.
This is what's happening? Yeah, yeah, yeah, but sure enough
the most amazing sight. And it was like we're having tonight,

(01:13:50):
full moon, no sky, no clouds, and it's happening. So
definitely going to watch tonight. We're really cool.

Speaker 2 (01:13:56):
Where are you tonight? That you're not in the neckw
but where are you now?

Speaker 27 (01:13:59):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (01:14:00):
Mate? I'm born and bred jape Land, So I sent
down down to school because my dad was going, oh.

Speaker 2 (01:14:05):
Okay, you're in the middle of Auckland. You get a
bit of light pollution, would you know?

Speaker 5 (01:14:10):
On the east coast, on the east coast, on the
southeast coast, going down my right, our way?

Speaker 2 (01:14:15):
Oh perfect, give you the dream spot de nice to talk.
Thank you. Just made the worst cup of tea in history.
I thought i'd put the tea bag in if I hadn't,
so I put the water in first in the tea
bagon and it's just white. There's no color there at all?
What's that about? Try to do too much of a
news break? How are you going?

Speaker 7 (01:14:35):
People?

Speaker 2 (01:14:35):
What's happening there? And listening?

Speaker 7 (01:14:36):
Land?

Speaker 2 (01:14:36):
All good? How's the moon? How's the moon?

Speaker 7 (01:14:43):
Ah?

Speaker 2 (01:14:47):
I've got a text for an umbreading in five. I
have no idea what that means anyway, keep it going.
So it was eleven pm tonight the best time to
get out of bed and watch the red moon. We
are in Todonga. It doesn't matter where you are in
New Zealand because we're a vertical country. We're not a
horizontal country. That's my understanding. It's midnight is when you

(01:15:10):
want to get up, up and at them. But it's
just moonshoon because what will happen tomorrow. What you want
to do is, here's what you want to do, because
I've done blood moons before. What you want to do
is get up and go to the pantry and cut
yourself a slice of salami, and then you take a
shot of that, and then you post that and then

(01:15:31):
you say ooh, pretty amazing blood moon. It looks just
like a slight People will be doing it. It's the
meme from three years ago all over again. Oh is
it a blood moon? Is it salami? It looks just
like salami. You know it, I know it, we know it. Marcus.
There is an ongoing war in Iran and other more

(01:15:52):
pressing and relevant topics that you can discuss far and
away above the color of the moon. Pull your socks up,
you gut this one there and talk about things actually matter.
So what we've talked about tonight mainly is nitrous oxy
and the state of our rivers and the situation with
the firing of the flag in New Plymouth and the

(01:16:14):
war in Iran. So you number ending in two one zero,
you pull your socks up, listen before you text, chill out,
and get a grip. And I run a show where
people are welcome to talk about whatever they want to
talk about. They're the ones that call the shots.

Speaker 29 (01:16:32):
So yeah, And.

Speaker 2 (01:16:34):
Often what I've noticed in the world of talkback, sometimes
world events happen, and sometimes people stay back for a
day or two before they work out what they're going
to say. A lot of people are probably out there
getting the information and reading the new sources work out
kind of what's going on. I don't take that as
a lack of concern. I think everyone's probably reconcerned about it.

(01:16:56):
So yeah, sort yourself out. Number ending in two one zero,
ten past ten. If you want to be involved, Oh,
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty nine nine two de
text Clinton, this is Marcus. Good evening.

Speaker 27 (01:17:07):
Do you mean Marcus, how are you? Marcus?

Speaker 12 (01:17:12):
Well?

Speaker 27 (01:17:12):
Everyone seemed to be very interested in the war in
the Middle East, so I thought maybe I should share
my two cents on that.

Speaker 2 (01:17:20):
Have you been listening to the show?

Speaker 27 (01:17:23):
I have since the last hour.

Speaker 2 (01:17:25):
Okay, that's curious that where people are read with that.
But anyway, yep, welcome.

Speaker 27 (01:17:31):
Thanks Marcus.

Speaker 7 (01:17:32):
Well.

Speaker 27 (01:17:33):
I well, I have a feeling this war would kind
of get over within two or three weeks max. Because
this regime, this evil regime, it's kind of losing its balance,
first of all, and second, I feel that they are
depleting their ammunitions quicker than anything else. With US and

(01:17:57):
Israel fighting this front, they should, I mean, they pretty
much killed Komena and they one. But fortunately this regime
is quite smart. I mean, we would have thought this
war would get over when the top general, well he's
not a general, he's a supreme supreme leader, that the

(01:18:19):
war would end straight away. But no, Apparently this military
has now gone kind of rogue and independently firing missiles
and rockets into civilian areas. And that includes all other
Arab nations that once supported Iran, and I'm talking about Qatar, Bahrain. Well,

(01:18:45):
you would have thought that, Okay, hold on a second,
why are they now attacking them? Well, it's just because
you have been sponsoring these terrorists across the Middle East.
I'm talking about Aspola, I'm talking about Hamas, I'm talking
about Hutis, and Israel was right to first elimitate Mars

(01:19:07):
Hasbola and the other factions first before going to the
main head of this serpent.

Speaker 2 (01:19:15):
Hey, Okay, Clinton, thanks for you, if you're appreciate it,
Come on if you want to talk eight hundred eighty
ten eighty and nine two nine to the text, if
you want to have your say. A lot of shots
now on TV of the various funerals that are happening
throughout the state of Iran, with the coffins to schultchildren
covering the Iranian flag. I will bring you more updates

(01:19:36):
when it happens. Pakistan April authority announced the partial closure
of space for commercial flights until the end of March.
And the Iranian death toll has reached seven hundred and
eighty seven and Trump's attacked the UKPM s kiyos Stama
for not joining Iran war. He has not been helpful.

(01:19:57):
That's the quote there. If you want to talk about
this eight hundred and eighty tenny nine two nine to
the text. Yeah, I don't think the wars. I think
I'm the only realistically, probably the most likely scenario would
be civil war, I would think, and which is your
pretty much scenario, and all the other cases that's happened
with the US intervention, that would be my That would

(01:20:19):
I think, would be the most likely scenario. Although as
I say, we shall wait and see. No eclipse yet,
Papakura moon update, TI, no change, Duncan, Any redness there? Duncan?
Is it looking like salami? But get in touch. You've
got to talk here till midnight. Oh, I forgot about
the emails tonight eight hundred and eighty ten eight if

(01:20:39):
you want to be a part of it, nineteen ninety
to text, So emails, keep those going through. Apparently there's
cloud there in Wellington, so you're not going to see
no surprises there, Tristan, it's Marcus. Good evening.

Speaker 21 (01:20:56):
Hi Marcus. I'm just ringing up when I hear some
people saying things that aren't quite right, and I just
wanted to correct it so your listeners are more informed.

Speaker 13 (01:21:07):
Is that all right by you?

Speaker 2 (01:21:08):
Absolutely? It wasn't quite sure what the point of Clinton's
he wasn't for a discussion you just want to bring
up and I don't quite know what it was, but anyway,
what it.

Speaker 21 (01:21:15):
Was was just what they call it was hasbura basically,
which is a Jewish word you could probably look up.
So his first point, I'm all one out. They've had
forty years to prepare for this, and obviously they've got
some sort of command structure involved that doesn't have anything
to do with a supreme leader who was just a
religious leader anyway.

Speaker 2 (01:21:34):
Well that's what all my that's all my readings suggested.
As they've had all sorts of contingencies for this. There's
been a lot of planning because obviously they had the
nickname for him.

Speaker 21 (01:21:43):
I've been under attacked for forty years by the greatest
power on the planet, so you've got to think they've
done something. And he's just a religious leader anyway, for
you know, millions and millions of that type of Muslim
out there. So yeah, and the civilian areas being attacked,
they're actually attacking all the Arab nations around them with
military bases on them nothing more. And the hotel that

(01:22:05):
got hit in one of those countries was full of
American servicemen, So they're actually you know, using civilian eras
as sort of human shields, aren't they really?

Speaker 2 (01:22:14):
Yeah, what I what I always anticipate is the way
often that radio goes and these sorts of situations is
that people people ring up under the guise of saying
that's what looks like to me. But what they're normally
doing is they are running some sort.

Speaker 5 (01:22:32):
Of Yeah I know what you mean.

Speaker 2 (01:22:36):
Yeah, you know, it's the fog of rawn and this
sort of propaganda, and I don't know what they're trying
to advance or achieve, but you know, a lot of
the people.

Speaker 4 (01:22:45):
Who are always clears.

Speaker 21 (01:22:46):
Doesn't it we all get to see.

Speaker 2 (01:22:48):
In the end history ultimately, I guess. Yeah, it takes
a while, doesn't it take? Well, I mean, cheap as creepers,
it's going to be hundreds of years before we work
out what's happened from the consequence of what happened to
a run in.

Speaker 21 (01:23:01):
Nineteen fifty years, when it will be sixty years when
the cias be classified come out, Well, we know, we know,
we know what happened initially in Iran because it's all
got declassified, so we know exactly the kind of things
that go on, don't we really and to think it's
any different now, It's just naive, isn't it.

Speaker 9 (01:23:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:23:21):
I wonder how that.

Speaker 2 (01:23:22):
I wonder how secure and safe that declassification process will
be in the future. I wouldn't have yeah, well, yeah,
I wouldn't have faith. And if everyone seems now to
be so much concerned about perpetuity and hiding secrets.

Speaker 21 (01:23:38):
Yeah, but anyway, yeah, but anyway, I just needed a
correct some points because I mean, facts are important.

Speaker 2 (01:23:43):
Yeah, I think so. I appreciate that, Trystan, thanks so
much for that. Israeli military of struck a building holding
housing his but his billa's, his Bollers TV and radio station,
causing heavy damage. I don't know if there's gat. I
think we've read earlier on tonight there were ground troops
gone into Lebanon. That's correct, isn't there? So I don't
know if it's ground troops or it's ready ground troops,

(01:24:04):
of course, but yes, be in touch if you want
to mowits Marcus.

Speaker 11 (01:24:09):
Good evening, Good evening, Marcus, Well, what an interesting day
to day. I spoke to somebody whose family are living
in Dubai and they have got the amazing technology to divert.
The missiles hitting.

Speaker 2 (01:24:22):
Dubai are not the people you're talking to, but the
Dubai government.

Speaker 11 (01:24:28):
No people, So I won't give details, but I I
know someone who's the rest time care and her family
are living in Dubai. He is high up and gold
gold mining stuff, and basically they've got the skills to
divert the missiles from where they're coming from. Oh my gosh,

(01:24:51):
I'm a bit tired. Yeah, and they're divertiment so they're
not being hit Dubai.

Speaker 2 (01:24:56):
That's right.

Speaker 11 (01:24:56):
And they have they have had a few buildings, but
they're basically the technology and intelligence.

Speaker 2 (01:25:02):
Too in this count I saw today of how many
missiles have been struck or d what would be the
right word, decommission, decommission it's and it's in the hundreds.
But although I think ultimately they probably run out of
the kit that manages to do that, I don't quite know.

Speaker 11 (01:25:17):
For the landing in the sea, Marcus.

Speaker 2 (01:25:19):
Yeah, that's right, nice to talk, my thanks so much
for that. Eighteen past ten. Get in touch if you
want to, oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty and nine
to nine to text be a part of it. If
any think you want to say tonight and the eclipse
is going to happen. It's reddening up now and she's
on its way. If you want to go and have
a look. This will be the first for three years.

(01:25:41):
It's a blood moon, but I think all eclipses are
blood moons, all total eclipses. I don't quite know why
the Pakistan Airport's Authority of closed announced that. What's that
happened there?

Speaker 5 (01:25:53):
Dan?

Speaker 21 (01:25:53):
Is it?

Speaker 2 (01:25:55):
What did that happened? I'll do some more investigation into that.
Australia's Energy Minister has urged motorists not to panic fuel.
I think there's been some fairly big rises the price
of fuel in Australia too. Get in touch if you
want to be a part of it. Nineteen past ten

(01:26:15):
backzone twenty two past ten if you want to be
a part of the show. Oh, eight hundred and eighty
ten eighty and nine to nine two de text. Latest
update from the Middle East. Israel's military Cesarahan has launched
missiles towards their country and they're working to intercept them.

(01:26:37):
Residents might be told to get into bunkers. Some of
the other information I've got few probably since we've got
a bit of a break from calls, it's time to
give you a bit of an update about what is happening,
because last at the time that the night was very
very busy with news and tonight's fairly similar. Israel has

(01:26:57):
launched fresh attacks on Tayranna and Beirut. Anthony Albanesi has
discussed the situation with stranded austral Aliens. There's twenty four
thousand Australians in the UAE, so that's a situation. So
that Albanese spoke with using in counterpac christ Relaxant on
Tuesday and they exchanged views. Oman report has been targeted

(01:27:22):
and suspected drone strike. Israelis sit back at the Spanish
government's refusal to give the US permission to use jointly
operated in military bases on its territory to attack Iran.
That accused the Spanish Prime Minister of been on the
wrong side of history. I don't know what base our
Rota and Moran, I don't know if their islands are
quite where they are. So that's just some of the

(01:27:44):
stuff that's happening. And if you want to be on
any of the number is eight hundred and eighty ten
eighty and nine to nine to text some pretty extraordinary
photography and and images coming out of Tehran. Don't know
how many international press are there, which is probably for
the Canterband should be a great place to be international press.
But I haven't seen any reporters that are there, so

(01:28:05):
it's probably how really hard to get information out of there.
Interesting discussions on anthropic AI as well says the use
of AI tools to enable a text on a run
hill's a new era of bombing, quicker than the speed
of thought, experts have said. They say if anthropics AI
models are poorly used by the US military and the

(01:28:26):
barriage of strikes as the technology shortens the kill chain
meanings the process of taggert unification through to legal approach
and strike launch YEP academics studdying the field say AI
is collapsing the plenty planning time required for complex strikes
decision compression, yeah, which some fear could result in human

(01:28:50):
military and legal experts merely rubber stamping automated strike plans.
Oh well, it's frightening. Twenty six past ten. If you
want to be a part of it, here till midnight tonight.
Backing of it, someone said Salami would make a great
talkback topic. And I don't actually disagree. I just think
as I am thinking, as I've seeing that TICT does
yezidn have a salami awards because everything else has in

(01:29:11):
awards like meat pie and sausages and sausage roll. Because
people are quite passionate about this ISLAMI aren't they? Please
discuss eight hundred and eighty ten eighty nine nine t TXT.
If you want to be a part of it, feel
free to come through. We have got the blood moon
about an hour away, an hour half away also two
not that there's a lot to talk about anyway. Imagine

(01:29:32):
the announcement of the all black coach will be happening
this week, or it'll be announcement before the week is over.

Speaker 16 (01:29:43):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:29:44):
Also the T twenty that will be Thursday morning, which
is in like at two thirty, which is in like
twenty eight hours away, not tomorrow morning which is in
three hours, but Wednesday night then Thursday morning at half
past two, So that's happening. Oh, by the way too,
this was something that probably we need to talk about. Also, yeah,

(01:30:07):
now where was that Dan? Did you see me? This
story about what's happening in British Columbia where was that story?
Is it today? But it's not as part of your
REGI oh yes, okay, nope. This Sunday in British Columbia,
most British Columbians will change their clocks for the last time.

(01:30:31):
It's the last time they will spring forward. They are
going with permanent change to daylight saving. It'll be called
Pacific time. So they had enough of going back and forward,
so it's what we should be doing. So it says
time change is particularly switching clocks, and our ford in

(01:30:52):
the spring has been found to be harmful as it
imposes jet lag on the entire population. Somebody had to
move first, it mays, will be British Columbia, and then
we'll have to see how it plays out. Antwaller said,
the question is now who will follows? Don't countries like America,
Israel or others also have nuclear programs. I'm just wondering
why do they want to stop around from having one?

(01:31:13):
Was a very good point you make, But I'll tell
you what after this. I would imagine that a lot
of those countries that are about to have nuclear capabilities
will be even more keen to get them because you know,
if you have them, look at North Korea. Once you've
got them, no one will touch your So you can

(01:31:33):
see why there is that great desire to get nuclear weapons.
I don't know who the next countries are the but
I was across which countries are going to be the
next ones to get them, but there are a few.
The interesting case was South Africa that had nuclear capability
and they and then they decided to no longer have

(01:31:54):
that capability, which I thought was very interesting. So there's
that also. But lines are free if you want to
talk one of his Marcus good evening oh eight hundred
and eighty thirty and nine two nine to detext There
is some discussion about our frequency to do it, so
I am onto that also. But we've want to talk tonight.
We've talked so far going through topics in order of

(01:32:14):
when we've talked about them. We've talked about nangs and
nitrous oxide, which is laughing gas, and I just wonder
if anyone has any stories about using nitrous sorry, if
anyone has any stories about being given nitrous oxide from
the dentist all during the birthing process, because in all

(01:32:39):
my days that the dentist, there's never once been talk
of nitrous oxide, and people often have also talked about
when they have been in the labor suite with both
the mother to be and the partner sharing on the
nitrous oxide to well, I've never heard of that, and
I don't ever know that's apothrycal of that's the real thing.

(01:33:00):
So he might want to mention that also tonight. So
if you do want to come through, eight hundred and
eighty ten eighty lines are free for you. Do you
want to be a part of the show heit til
midnight tonight? Looking forward to what you've got to say, Marcus.
We use a lot of diesel at work for generators
and trucks. Today the boss filled both five thousand meter
unused tanks we had lying around up. He's very worried

(01:33:23):
about the price increases, taking steps to stockpile. This war
will push up transport costs, leading to increase at the supermarket, etc. Yes,
I imagine the government will be very concerned about that
with the cost of living because they've talked about us
turning the corner and things getting easier, and this would
be the last thing they want with the election only

(01:33:44):
seven months away, because it will be inflationary. There's no
doubt about that, and it could be inflationary for a
long time because of the conflict increases, and that'll either
be because of civil war, because of a huge number
of refugees going to neighboring countries and which you always
have a destabilizing effect. Yeah, five, ten, fifteen, twenty years

(01:34:09):
could be a long game, might not be. But also too,
I think Trump has changed with what his objectives are.
He's been vague about that to no Onah knows quite
what the objectives are, and that's probably deliberate, so you
can actually yell victory when any one of them has met.
But yeah, no one quite knows what the aimers. And
if you don't know what the aimers, you don't know
when it's been achieved. And I think that would be

(01:34:31):
a concern for people twenty five to eleven. If there's
something you want to talk about today, all the lines
there are free. It feels like the halftime stretch Marcus
REDI reception on ninety four point three. Any word from that.
They're saying it's dreadful. Text are onto it. There's been
issues on and off all day. I don't know what
that would be. Might be sunspots, might not be.

Speaker 21 (01:34:54):
But we're on it.

Speaker 2 (01:34:55):
So thank you for those people that have come through
with that eighty bucks per barrel. At the moment for petrol,
that'll be the Brent crude. I don't know too much
about the price of the looking at the graphs, though
it seemed as though twenty two the price was way up. Marcus.
Just so let you know that I'm listening to your

(01:35:15):
show in Ala Dualla, New South Wales eyed Little Pocket
Radio on AM ten thirty five. No, I'm not on
night dress. Nice to hear from your horas the only
reason I know about Ali Dalla. I remember that guy
took his daughter from calf your harbor in a small yacht.
They ended up at Ali Dulla. You remember that it
was remarkable. It was a custody battle, was a remarkable
boat trip went right across. I think she was about

(01:35:37):
a five year old. Yeah, and the boat coming to
Ali Dulla fishing port I think south of Sydney. Be
in touch. You want to be a part of the show,
hitdle twelve. Anything else you want to mention good. I
haven't had much local news for you tonight, but it's
all about the aclipse that's about to happen. By the way,
there's been a mess bird event at Blockhouse Bay and

(01:36:00):
the Monaco a lot a large number of dead swans.
So yeah, I don't quite know what the problem was.
There be botulism, yeah, Avian bochelism poisoning. Oh, that's been
theories that have been sh or that were the theories.
It was avian bochelism poisoning. But stuff is uncovered that
what caused them was a targeted cull from a helicopter

(01:36:25):
by Auckland Airport. So that's what's happening. Safety is a
number one priority. They've been up doing a helicopter's shooting
of swans and they failed to get all the carcasses
because it wasn't safe to do. So jeeps. That's not
good pr for the airport, is it? But you would
want to hit a swan or Canada goose? Get in touch,
you want to be part of it. Twenty six away

(01:36:46):
from eleven o'clock. Oh, by the way, the world markets
have reacted to the war with the run. We'll see
what's happening with the markets. I'm just waited for that
to come up. They'll be down, won't they. I can't
see anyway. Lines are free for you. I've really keen
to talk about the eclipse as well as the other stuff,
and get in touch if you want to be on
air tonight if there is something different, gone, great guns.

(01:37:07):
Oh I just want to know about the Midwife so
night trist Yeah, I was very keen to tick that
one off people and the dentists. The dentists. Yeah, so
if you want to say something about that too, get
in touch. As you know Hittle twelve. Oh well, I
did want to tell you about what days it was too. Well,
I've got a chance to speak. And permanent daylight savings,
which I am a very big fan of. That's my thing.

(01:37:29):
I want daylight savings to be permanent. As a night worker,
I hate it. Nights are hard enough anyway without you
being shaken around.

Speaker 4 (01:37:39):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:37:40):
Oh, by the way, this eclips will be the only
one for twenty twenty six. Oh this what I'm going
to tell you this day. Nineteen sixty, Barry krub published
A good keen Man This Day in nineteen thirty one.
The star Spangled banner was written by Francis Scott Key
was officially adopted as the national anthem. I was written
in eighteen twelve, but nineteen thirty one was when it

(01:38:01):
became that. In nineteen twenty three, the first issue of
the American Weekney magazine was published. I don't think that's
still a thing. Time it's online, is it? And the
eclipse is happening tonight Tomorrow morning, kiwis are in luck
best time. By about eleven pmire start notice redness. Then

(01:38:22):
by midnight it's going to be completely within the Earth's shadow.
It's to be partial. Eclipse begins Toddler clips begins at midnight.
Twelve thirty three is the maximum and you can look
at it with the naked eye. It's not the sun
one where you go blind. You can see it in
the city light. Popular light pollution is not really a
factor there. You go knock yourself out. You're gonna go.

(01:38:45):
You're gonna go a. You're gonna go. Lunar eclipse watching.

Speaker 7 (01:38:49):
Pete much what.

Speaker 20 (01:38:57):
Lawyer and looking it look much to me?

Speaker 2 (01:38:59):
Have you been out?

Speaker 19 (01:39:00):
Yea, here just the norm to me, I thought, you
know they're talked up.

Speaker 2 (01:39:05):
I mean it's only the moon. That's a slightly different calendar. Yeah,
I don't know about you. I don't know about astronomical hype.

Speaker 21 (01:39:12):
No.

Speaker 20 (01:39:12):
In order to why not run into that sort of stuff.
But they quick look out there when you're mentioned. You
try out there and have a look. It looks sort
of said, I didn't notice the different tonight were going
back to a daylight saving ours all. Fortunately all year
aund neave the same.

Speaker 2 (01:39:30):
Just get it on, sort it out to be votes
on it.

Speaker 20 (01:39:33):
Yeah, well you think about it, and at night time,
with it's winter time or whatever, that you get an
extra hours daylight.

Speaker 6 (01:39:39):
The winter the winter.

Speaker 26 (01:39:42):
For nothing.

Speaker 20 (01:39:43):
Yeah, and also you're saving power, so eving an extra
out of daylight at night. Most I shouldn't say about farmers.
They probably got to get up here and do what
they have to do. But in the winter time anyway,
the farmers they have the they have the off season anyway,
so they're sleeping and anyway, that daylight.

Speaker 2 (01:40:00):
We've all got their four hundred and fifty thousand payouts,
so they'll be happy. They'll be having holidays overseas and buying.
And then you stay the.

Speaker 20 (01:40:07):
Craft and they've got all this modern technology. Know that
the farmers now forgetting the cows and car for all
these modern things they have so you don't have to worry.
You sort of needed the daylight hours that the modern
technology the farmers have today makes no difference with the
cows are trying to get the bulling or whatever and
the day all dark, so it's all changed. One hundred

(01:40:30):
important daylight saving warning around the.

Speaker 2 (01:40:33):
Cows will be milking each other. So in the way
it's going well, they do in hold.

Speaker 20 (01:40:36):
I've been able holding the.

Speaker 2 (01:40:37):
Milk the milk each other.

Speaker 20 (01:40:40):
Oh no, no, I understand. Look they've got automate. At
that New Zealand was about twenty years behind. They only
got that technology now that the cows they have those
the electronic things around their neck. The guys over holding
about about twenty thirty five years ago. Is over there,
they already had a mere and the stalls the cows
that go around and a lot of them. They had

(01:41:01):
the self milking machines that don't go around. The cows
get hungry. They need they need to eat. There's no
difference from humans. And they go through there. They had
to go and get something meal or wady. The farmers
are feeding them. But they said, oh I need I
need something to eat. And they go through and they
get locked in. The automatic cups come on. They get
milks and a lot of farmers in Holland.

Speaker 9 (01:41:19):
They didn't.

Speaker 20 (01:41:20):
They don't even hook the cows themselves. Did they get
automatic milk? Are still doing it?

Speaker 2 (01:41:24):
How BIG's are heard in Holland there around Pete Ah.

Speaker 20 (01:41:29):
My uncles are quite small. They're any sort of like
you think from fifty they'd like to hundred to one
hundred and fifty sort of things. They went big, but
they went big. Dairy farmers just small little. But it's
all changing over there because they're trying to get rid
of the farmers over in Holland. Now before oh, they
were up for industrial land. They and a lot of

(01:41:51):
the towns they might the same thing when I was
over there. These town as they move in there in
the country, they complain about the farmers, the smell and
Everything's a lot of the environmental people trying to get
rid of them.

Speaker 2 (01:42:01):
What sort of cows they have? The Dutch belted or
what were they? The lack and.

Speaker 20 (01:42:05):
Velder figure a hell stign in freezing.

Speaker 30 (01:42:08):
Contad that it makes sense, Yeah, really big, you know,
we're really they were really I don't know what they
produced double with our cares produce here and you know
they're big, but they get well locked up.

Speaker 20 (01:42:20):
You know, they get feed well and they get good.

Speaker 2 (01:42:23):
Are they indoors? Are they indoors? They're grazing on grass.

Speaker 20 (01:42:27):
In the winter time, the pretty much indoors probably.

Speaker 2 (01:42:29):
What do they feed like all sorts of stuff, em.

Speaker 20 (01:42:33):
Mill grain, all sorts of things, and quite often over
there because they have a lot of brought a cultural
like you know, carrots and stuff and like and oversupply
of carrots or whatever. There's too much of them. They
just feed them to the cow. So then the farmers
get there and basically get it rather than wasting it.
The farmers buy it. But they're basically always got food

(01:42:54):
to feed their cows, and if something runs out, they'll
just get something else alternate from what they haven't thought.
They can't really get They work well.

Speaker 2 (01:43:01):
I picked up a hitchhogger from America was a dairy farmer,
and I couldn't believe the feed that the American cow
like old sweets and all sorts of studied anything.

Speaker 20 (01:43:10):
Oh they do, yeah, they you know it. Oh no,
their cows are hungry. They're going to watch out what
they feed them too, like tournaments and stuff like that.
They can sell out the milk.

Speaker 5 (01:43:18):
Oh yeah, yeah, No difference from here.

Speaker 20 (01:43:21):
With our farm kernel two like volunteer. The farmers only
give pee so much of that the cows now two
that tanks the milk as well.

Speaker 2 (01:43:28):
You can the milk tastes a different when on the
silence too, doesn't it You're going to taste the difference.

Speaker 20 (01:43:34):
Yeah, I think.

Speaker 6 (01:43:34):
I don't know.

Speaker 20 (01:43:35):
I've been able to farming for a while. Nearly there's
so many restrictions there. You only feed so much of
the cows and stuff. Otherwise you start taking the milkam
and it's hard to eat to the process and the
factual two. So that's what they made a lot, a
lot tougher now for the farmers and what they can
feed their cows. It just much makes sense.

Speaker 2 (01:43:52):
Nice to talk, Pete. Thanks for coming through thirdy and
away from eleven. Looking forward, you're called the eclips is
about to have if you want to go outside looking
forward to what you've got to say, Beccine be a
part of if you want to be a part of it.
By the way, someone has texted me and I think
this is probably quite important. I don't know if this
is someone says, anyone want to please share their pre
sale code for Iron Made and Megative concert tickets, So

(01:44:14):
what would that happen if you shared your pre if
anyone yeah, I don't know. I don't know what that means,
but I'll pass the message if anyone's got a pre
sale code that they could share. I don't know why
that guy couldn't get his own pre sale code, but
it sounds like it's important. I don't know how to
split inside out those tickets when on sale today today
or pre sales. I don't even know understand that help

(01:44:34):
the way concerts have gone with pre I mean that
sounds like an old foggy thing to say. It does
sound like weirdy of a different couple of goes with
it with pre sale. I don't fully understand. But be
in touch if you want to be in touch, Marcus
till midnight, oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty and texts
you want to talk about anything tonight? Their clips is happening,

(01:44:54):
James says. The eclips causing is such slight shadow on
the right hand side of the moon. So I want
to say that must make the quiz what made Peak laugh?
What did make Peak laugh? Did make him laugh? What
did make him laugh? Forgot what it was? Now kind
of even answer my own question. He didn't laugh though.
What was it We talked to him about the eclips

(01:45:17):
Holland sheep farm milk, cows milking themselves. Nothing he laughed
at that. They just diad know they've been doing that,
Noland for long. He did laugh at something. Tell me
what it was. Dan was in the beginning of the call.
He said he wasn't about the cows milking themself. If
you can remember, just text me quickly because it will

(01:45:37):
make the quiz. What made Peak laugh the cows and
bok themselves? It should? It should also make the quiz.
What did the guy from the Get Lady m called
Emial night rate? Animal animal night trate? That's one of
the that's one of the greatest sproutes I've ever heard,
animal night rate. What was his name? Not Chris, I'll

(01:45:58):
get his name too, Darren. What is Darren call emeral
night trate? Animal night rate? Yes, you knew them in
the day nineteen eighty six biggest lasers show with the
country half a million dollars worth of lasers for a while.
The you'd fly from Auckland to christ Church to go nightclubbing.
That's right, were there? Student isis card that would give

(01:46:21):
you IC card, give you half priced travel on standby.
That was a thing you'd go on stand by. If
there was spere flights, you'd be given them and you
go down to party at the palladium. I've forgotten about that.
Ah recent nostalgia. It's not so recent now, it's forty
year ago. Bore myself sometimes we found out what he

(01:46:43):
said that he laughed, No, they laughed. It was a
definite laugh at about a minute. And and I said, oh,
I may pick laugh. You come to that, but yet
stands on it. Some believe that that and eclipse can
affect the embryo. But all that means, I have said,

(01:47:03):
I've read some New New Age ravings about their clips.
Funny old thing, funny old thing, the red moon. What
was into the most interesting tonight is about Samuel Coleridge
and nitrous oxide laughing. Guess I'm still wing here from
the Midwives. What their code of conduct is, what their
code of us is for nitrous oxide and birthing sweets

(01:47:28):
was something you can mention too. But if you want
to be a part of the show, that's the plan tonight.
Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty and nintexts. Did you
find it? You can't find? What's it? Made Pete laugh?
Getting shots shots of the moon taken upper hut. Think
he's Sam looking good? Nice photo, Neil, it's Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 5 (01:47:51):
Hello.

Speaker 14 (01:47:51):
So I just want to end of a slant to
the Spellens concert types idea. I first attend the Runeo tour,
which was one of their first albums. And you had
to have a jacket and high It's a different than now,

(01:48:13):
isn't it.

Speaker 2 (01:48:14):
And you could never wear genes anywhere. They say you're
too cash Well, sure you'd want people to be casual,
wouldn't you.

Speaker 14 (01:48:21):
I have to admit you could wear jeans at the
True Color store it saw with a jacket. I don't
think to was compulsory.

Speaker 2 (01:48:31):
Then where was the jacket and tired?

Speaker 26 (01:48:36):
It was just there?

Speaker 2 (01:48:38):
What venue were you seeing them at?

Speaker 28 (01:48:42):
Ray Well?

Speaker 2 (01:48:43):
Can you remember the name of the nightclub or the venu?

Speaker 29 (01:48:48):
No?

Speaker 14 (01:48:48):
I don't. I think it was just a town hall.
They did the town all twice and Bumston twice in Pumsten.
It was a groupie you see.

Speaker 2 (01:48:58):
And did you go from Palmerston to see them? Now?

Speaker 14 (01:49:03):
I lived in Array at that time. I traveled to
christ to follow the dudes around the country. I was
a groupie and the air field was only fifty five
dollars on student pass from Bumson to Christa.

Speaker 2 (01:49:21):
With the ISIC card. Yeah, ISIS carry those cards, you'd hear.
Will you go and see them this time?

Speaker 14 (01:49:28):
I would absolutely love to. I don't know if I
can love to organize it. Well, I'll sitting here a
crack back in time.

Speaker 2 (01:49:35):
I think the tickets on tale tomorrow, but they.

Speaker 14 (01:49:38):
Will be shipped up immediately because people respace. They just
want to grab about like four pre cell conferts regardless. Yeah, yeah,
so there will be very few tickets going around even
after this couple of days.

Speaker 19 (01:49:58):
You found yourself now, Neil, I'm in eighteen hour We saw.

Speaker 14 (01:50:06):
You know the one does teenage.

Speaker 5 (01:50:09):
Big Goes?

Speaker 2 (01:50:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 14 (01:50:11):
Yeah, I called the name of the band. We saw
them at the Municipal Theater here in Nature who was there?
And about three three and a half weeks ago, you
know what average trip was to get away to Sapapa Museum.
We went down, stayed in Wellington for four days and
I knew nothing about Wellington. Isn't it weird?

Speaker 2 (01:50:32):
Because waitest was teenage do it Big.

Speaker 14 (01:50:36):
That's the one.

Speaker 2 (01:50:37):
Any good waitest I'll be old now, wouldn't they? Yeah?

Speaker 14 (01:50:40):
Really rough in the house here it will be on
seventy five. But you know who's got me going anyway?

Speaker 2 (01:50:45):
It was a catchy song.

Speaker 20 (01:50:46):
But was it a one?

Speaker 19 (01:50:47):
Who wonder?

Speaker 2 (01:50:47):
Do they have others?

Speaker 4 (01:50:50):
Oh?

Speaker 14 (01:50:51):
Rush? Or music was of a similar type. I wouldn't
know what the album name is.

Speaker 2 (01:50:57):
No, I can't remember. I'm going to run the other
but nice to talk. Thank you, get in touch if
you want to hittle to a hold your horses, cats
will be with you. Are that the eclipse is happening?
It's this is Pete. The cows will be milking each other.

Speaker 30 (01:51:13):
So in the way it's going they milk each other.

Speaker 20 (01:51:20):
Oh no, no, no, I understand automatically I have.

Speaker 2 (01:51:26):
To go back and repeat it. Didn't they get a
laugh at your hard work? Hard work? I shouldn't say
the Dutch that's racist and hard work to get Pete laughing.
Oh thanks to the people that alerted us about the
frequencies that to do the text are onto that. There's
been some work done over the day, but then it's

(01:51:46):
not as good as it could be, so they'll work
on that. So thanks for the people. So if you
are listening there, your reception will be getting better. We're
just getting ready for the eclipse. Marcus clear view here
and cutty cutty with about one third of the moon
blacked out. Bears Now interesting suit A. Some of you

(01:52:07):
people will want to hear this information. This is a
report into the attack on Ayatolahimene. Moss said operatives hacked
into Tehran's traffic camera network to spy on Aotola Alahamane,
his bodyguards, and other top Ranian officials for years before assassination.

(01:52:31):
Israel gained access to almost all the city's cameras, which
are used extensively by Iran to spy on regime opponent
opponents in its own population and track the movements of
key bodyguards. Images were transmitted back to Tel Aviv and
Southern Israel, allowing Mossa to develop into acknowledge on the
guard to addresses, work schedules, and who they were assigned

(01:52:54):
to protect. So they worked even out where the bodyguards
parked their personal cars when there's when Israel located Harminae
on set morning, they disrupted around a dozen mobile phone
towers near past Yere Street, where he lived. Making phones
appear busy when called, and preventing his security from receiving

(01:53:18):
possible warnings. So that's how they did it, hacking the
cameras on the traffic lights. There you go, traffic camera network.
By the way, the sirens are sounding in Bahrain, and
China is calling for the strait of her moves to
be reopened for ships to pass through those deeds for

(01:53:41):
you there by the way, it's about to happen, someone
says Mary Marcus Luxon has appeared ignorant and incompetent with
a response to the Americans legal war on Iran. Our
economy will really suffer as a result of the closed
straight of her mooz And did I hear we have
over two hundred billion dollars of dairy and chilled not
frozen beef bound for our trading partners unable to pass further.

(01:54:04):
That's from Mary and the other information from forty three
minutes ago. The US embassy and Riard has been hit
by Iranian drones as Israeli troops into southern Lebanon. That's
what I've got for you if you want to talk
for the final hour, we talk about nitrous oxide and
nangs and Iran and the eclipse feels like it's about

(01:54:28):
a three or four topic night too, if you've got
anything and salmon, a bit of salmon talk and having
to wear suits and jackets to get into nightclubs. I
don't fully know what. I don't fully know that I
can sit here in all honesty and try and tell
you what bounces were trying to solve with dress dress codes. Yeah,

(01:54:49):
it's amazing kind of having to a lot of people.
Remember that you go, you hat to one if you
had to pass the dress code. Sorry mate, too usual,
go figure. I mean these days all the middle aged
men dressed as toddlers and sort of long shorts and
trainers and socks and giant T shirts. Amazing a. Everyone's

(01:55:10):
going casual. Oh well, each to their own. And if
you wonder about all the swans that are floating around
the Monaco Harbor Blockhouse Bay, it was the airport that
shot them from a helicopter. Hello, Clarence is Marcus welcome?

Speaker 3 (01:55:25):
Thank you Marcus Simon astronomer and I'd like to clear
up a few things about this saloonar eclipse.

Speaker 2 (01:55:31):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (01:55:33):
The shadow that the is showing on the right side
of the Moon at the moment is called the per number.
That's right, That is the Earth's lighter shadow before the
it goes into the cone of the dark shadow of
the Earth, which goes right from the Sun shining on
the other side of the Earth right out in a

(01:55:55):
cone shape all the way past the moon. And if
the moon's in the right distance and at the right angle,
you get to see it from somewhere on Earth. And
we're lucky tonight because clear and on our side. And no,
we've put a good view of it at Auckland. So
the shadow that we can see is just the pen

(01:56:16):
under at the moment and little change as the light
refracts into the copper color.

Speaker 2 (01:56:22):
So the question for me to you is are all
lunar eclipses blood moons?

Speaker 27 (01:56:27):
No, not at all.

Speaker 3 (01:56:28):
There's different ones as partial eclipses.

Speaker 2 (01:56:31):
Sorry, all total eclipses are blood moons? Aren't they?

Speaker 17 (01:56:35):
Well?

Speaker 3 (01:56:35):
Coppery colored?

Speaker 2 (01:56:37):
We're calling them blood moon now, aren't we.

Speaker 3 (01:56:40):
Yeah, there's all sorts of names that some of them
are popular, the harvest moon and of this moon. But
I think there will there are motives rather than scientific Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:56:53):
And I think it's got people. It's a headline grabber.
If you're on the Moon at the moment looking at Earth,
what would you see.

Speaker 3 (01:57:01):
You'd be looking straight at the Sun. You wouldn't see
the Earth because they're in a line, and the Earth
would be dead in line with the Sun, so you wouldn't.

Speaker 2 (01:57:11):
You'd be seeing a blank with light around the outside
of it, would you not?

Speaker 3 (01:57:16):
No, the Earth doesn't don't take up enough space to
cover the Sun. That's one hundred and nine times the
diameter of the is and the right distance away.

Speaker 16 (01:57:26):
That.

Speaker 3 (01:57:27):
One of the things is suggest people if they want
to get a good long look at the moon, we're sunglasses.
It's perfectly safe. It's sunlight coming off the moon. We
can't see the Moon otherwise, but it's indirect sunlight. But
you can get what's called moon temporary moon blindness. It's
like snow blindness. But when you're skiing you supposed to be.

(01:57:49):
There's sunglasses to stop snowblindness. Well, this is exactly the
same thing.

Speaker 2 (01:57:57):
Okay, So you're saying if you were on the moon looking.

Speaker 3 (01:58:01):
At the Earth, yep, it'd be straight in line with
the sun.

Speaker 2 (01:58:07):
But you'd see the Earth, wouldn't you, And you'd see
a red ring around it.

Speaker 3 (01:58:12):
Well, what you'd be seeing is what's called a transit
of the Earth across the Sun. It's the opposite of
the other, and when Venus crosses the Sun, we get
a little dot that goes across special filters filters to
see it.

Speaker 2 (01:58:28):
Are you outside looking now?

Speaker 24 (01:58:30):
No.

Speaker 3 (01:58:30):
I came back and to make this call because I
thought I heard a couple of uninformed or uninterested comments,
and I thought, let's actually very interesting, and there's somebody
did mention it's going to be a while, so we
see another one. This good on this side of the earth.

Speaker 2 (01:58:47):
Sure, nice to hear from you. Thanks for making the effort, Clarence,
fifteen past eleven. If you want to talk, oh eight
hundred eighty eighty nine nine texts, go outside, it'll be
best at twelve thirty five, or go to bed and
look at the photos in the paper in the morning
or online. But yes, last time, three year ago, a
lot of people posted pictures of Salama slice of salami,

(01:59:07):
which I thought was hilarious. Of course, the astronomers don't
think that's funny, because that's belittling. Thank you, Sue for
your shot from Upper Hut. Let me have a bit
of Oh the other thing that if you do want
another topic that might be entry level for you.

Speaker 7 (01:59:24):
As that.

Speaker 2 (01:59:26):
Yeah, daylight saving on the other thing too. We didn't
mention this so much, and this happened in the weekend.
Neil Sadarka has died at eighty six. Now normally when
something that happens, we discussed whether he's been to New Zealand.
He wrote Stupid Cupid, which was not a great song.
I never thought it was for Connie Francis breaking up

(01:59:47):
is hard to do, as one of his also, love
will Keep Us Together? Great song Captain in Tanil. They
had that in seventy five. So yep, big character. That's
what you say, is it? Neil Sedaka? So that's happened.
I just need to cover that one off. Who was

(02:00:11):
one who emailed us about that? Who's who was that person?
Who is there a listener? Okay? I don't Apart from that,
I don't know what what where that surname Sadaka is from.
That's what I'm kind of interested about. America. He doesn't
say that you're from anywhere. Interesting Lebanese Jewish descent from Istanbul. Yep,

(02:00:33):
good on them. Evan Marcus, welcome, are you out moon gazing?

Speaker 15 (02:00:39):
Yeah, just coming through from half Moon Bay area.

Speaker 2 (02:00:41):
Oh good, good place to call about the moon would
be half Moon Bay.

Speaker 15 (02:00:45):
It's about half a moon now, yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:00:47):
Half moon, half moon. Clear sky in half Moon Bay.

Speaker 5 (02:00:52):
Yeah, very clear tonight.

Speaker 2 (02:00:53):
Okay, yep.

Speaker 15 (02:00:55):
Yeah, it looks like someone's taking a big cont care
of it.

Speaker 5 (02:00:58):
About half of it gone, but.

Speaker 2 (02:01:00):
You can still you can still see that half a Yeah,
you'll stay up for the whole bit.

Speaker 15 (02:01:06):
Oh well, I think it's calmed down a bit now.
Been pretty brazy up here.

Speaker 2 (02:01:11):
Yeah, what's happening where that breeze come from?

Speaker 15 (02:01:16):
Certainly turned wintery last night, don't that?

Speaker 2 (02:01:18):
It's amazing suddenly, first day of first day of autumn
and it feels like autumn. What's that about? Bring on
the mark, Bring on the mark. Hey, good to talk even,
thanks for coming through. Twenty eight past eleven. If you
want to be a part of it, welcome Tedle twelve.
Oh here's a Learner live stream. Thanks for that, Dan,
And I'm having a looked now at the live stream.
I'm just watching an ad walk fit the tai Chi

(02:01:41):
walking program trusted by eighteen million news as I'll skip that.
Oh wow, I thought it'd be side to side but
it's the topic that's getting covered. It's from a top
down sort of a scenario. Wow, it might be ai.
A lot of comments. Looks like something you's see in
a weird dream. Anybody else born today? Happy birthday? You

(02:02:01):
should have charged protective things. Moon is not visible in India.
Someone ate the moon Matthew one twenty three? What is
that one? Dan Graham and smacks good evening?

Speaker 28 (02:02:14):
Yeah, Hi, Yeah, the moon is about three quarters eclipsed,
and so we were to go yet it will turn
blood red at totality.

Speaker 2 (02:02:29):
It's funny how they say blood red, not just red.
But I guess it's today. It's almost like a rust
red too, isn't it.

Speaker 8 (02:02:35):
Well?

Speaker 28 (02:02:36):
It varies from about a light orange to a very
deep ready red, and that varies from individual eclipsed individual eclipse.
I've seen heaps of them. So what you're seting outside? Oh,
just as your naked eye. I've been some of my
neighbors for about the outside about the last three quarters
of an hour and really enjoying myself here in South DA.

(02:02:59):
It's are you with?

Speaker 17 (02:03:01):
Are you with?

Speaker 27 (02:03:01):
Others?

Speaker 2 (02:03:02):
Graham?

Speaker 28 (02:03:03):
I was, we've all gone back inside and.

Speaker 2 (02:03:08):
You can't go back inside halfway through.

Speaker 28 (02:03:12):
Well, the second half of the eclipse will just be
reversal exactly as he passed out of the Moon's shadows,
so it won't go blood red until about totality. And then.

Speaker 2 (02:03:30):
When did we start calling eclipses blood moons? Oh?

Speaker 28 (02:03:34):
The mirror American this year they called it a worm moon,
or some.

Speaker 8 (02:03:43):
Call it.

Speaker 2 (02:03:43):
I don't like it.

Speaker 28 (02:03:45):
Well, it's just enforcing their culture on.

Speaker 2 (02:03:47):
Us exactly respect. What's the worm moon?

Speaker 28 (02:03:52):
I don't know, and I don't care.

Speaker 2 (02:03:56):
You got me est in the worm moon?

Speaker 28 (02:03:57):
Now?

Speaker 3 (02:03:59):
Is the moon?

Speaker 2 (02:04:00):
By the way, is the moon? Where's the moon?

Speaker 3 (02:04:01):
On?

Speaker 2 (02:04:02):
Is the moon close?

Speaker 9 (02:04:03):
Is it ed?

Speaker 2 (02:04:03):
Its epigy or paragraph.

Speaker 28 (02:04:06):
Uh period g is a slight periody moon. The moon's
orbit is actually slightly elongated. Some times it comes slightly
closer to us and normal, and some which case it's
a bit larger and a bit brighter, and other times
it's an apergy moon.

Speaker 2 (02:04:24):
And so is it a large brighter one now or
just run of the mill moon.

Speaker 28 (02:04:29):
Slightly larger? I think it's about fifty thousand miles closer
it comes. In extreme cases, an experienced observer would notice
that difference of the naked eye.

Speaker 2 (02:04:44):
But and if you're on the moon, really worry. If
you're on the Moon looking at Earth, what would you see?
Not that lucky? Well you would want to go to
the moon, would you.

Speaker 9 (02:04:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (02:04:59):
How life changing? I don't reckon it would be that
life changing looking back at our planet. I think, oh yeah, well,
I mean it.

Speaker 28 (02:05:05):
Buzz ordering a couple time, and I asked him and
he just said, did a job to do? And we
wrought some rocks back, and I said, and he came
back alive. It's just more important than me.

Speaker 7 (02:05:16):
You meet.

Speaker 28 (02:05:19):
One of a wood. He was a good friend of
several people, including Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 10 (02:05:27):
So he was.

Speaker 2 (02:05:29):
He would have first and foremost been a test pilot.

Speaker 3 (02:05:32):
Is that right?

Speaker 28 (02:05:34):
Uh? Yeah, Well he's actually the guy that invented the
Rendezvous system. He called doctor Rendezvous, and he had a PhD.
He was the only academically qualified. Remember he was maybe
part or someone just I haven't seen him for several years, but.

Speaker 2 (02:05:54):
He still alive.

Speaker 28 (02:05:57):
Yeah still you see you know in hospital.

Speaker 2 (02:06:00):
He wasn't because he got crocod and tactic.

Speaker 7 (02:06:01):
You remember, Yeah, that's right, yep, yep.

Speaker 28 (02:06:05):
They brought him back and looked after.

Speaker 9 (02:06:08):
Him as we do. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:06:11):
In ninety six, in nineteen thirty. Yep, doctor Ron, doctor Rendezvous.

Speaker 28 (02:06:16):
Doctor Rendezvous, that's his nickname. Yeah, he invented the rendezvous
system which enabled the lunar landing Stappen.

Speaker 2 (02:06:24):
Yeah, you think that would have got him first, wouldn't you.
Oh how did they decide that?

Speaker 4 (02:06:33):
Graham?

Speaker 28 (02:06:35):
Oh right, he was going to be the first man
to walk on the Moon. But then Neil about three
weeks before the launch, pauled Rank and said I'm the
I'm the lunar pilots. Therefore it shipped the first person
to walk on the megant with me, not you, And
that's that's the way it went.

Speaker 2 (02:06:54):
And buzzby late Ago. Oh yeah, not a problem, no.

Speaker 28 (02:06:59):
Problem, ses I was. There was nearly anyway around his
first or second, so didn't worry me.

Speaker 2 (02:07:04):
Brilliant. Nice to talk, Graham. Great report from you. Feel
you brought us home. By the way, Matthew, one point
twenty three was the prophecy announcing Jesus being born. I
don't think it's like a Star of Bethnihem type scenario.
Is it a blood? I think there was something a
little bit different. I've got my things right, But Geba're
all back in the Middle East, aren't we now different news.

(02:07:25):
None of it could.
