Talks at.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
Be Greetings and Welcome Crusaders Lead the Hearland is ten
to five. It might be on Freedom where it might not.
Go watch it if you want. I'll keep you updated
with the scores from that. I know this is a
special game to some. Plenty of people turned out at
the arena in Canterbury christ Church to watch the sixty

(00:31):
thousand capacity. That's good to see people are going to
rugby and droves. I think it's the pointy end of
the season. I will keep you updated about that. Looking
for to the women's rugby tomorrow night too. You is
a New Zealand there we go. So I'm up against
it tonight because everyone's watching the rugby and doing other stuff.
But that's fine. I'm sure if one'll come on at
ten o'clock tonight tonight, I will attempt to do something

(01:04):
that I don't think is probably ever being done and
radio before. That's what I suspect. What I am going
to have tonight. I've got your attention. This is the hype,
this is the sizzle. What I will do tonight is

(01:26):
I'm going to have I don't know that this is
so this thing is so big and so new, I
don't even know how to explain it. What we're going
to do for the start of tonight, We're going to
have a sweep steak on what tonight's sweep steak is

(01:49):
going to be about. Yeah you first, So so on
night's show, we're gonna have a sweep steak about what
the sweep steak is gonna be about. So later on

(02:12):
tonight we have a sweepsteak about something that's quite topical.
But before that, we're gonna have a sweepsteak to see
if you can guess what the sweepsteak is gonna be about. So, wow,
that's pretty powerful. It will be a sweep steak on
a sweep steak. What do you think the sweep steak
will be about? Before I came to the studio, I

(02:37):
didn't even know what I was going to do it on.
But boy, oh boy, I'm pretty excited about this now.
So it's going to be a sweep steak on what
the sweep steak is about. Never been done before. It's
like it's like the Russian doles of talk radio. It's
a sweepsteak within a sweep steak. Call me if you

(02:57):
think you're not the sweep steak's gonna.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
Be on.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
Oh, eight hundred eighty eight. There's no prize for the sweepstake.
Within the sweepstake. There might be a prize for the
subsequent sweepsteak if we've won the sweep steak. About what
the sweepstake's going to be about? I'm excited? Was that you, Marcus? Yes,
that's right. I'm beside myself. So there we go. So, yes,

(03:24):
the sweep steak within a sweep steak. If you think
you know what that is about, call me. I'm trying
to think if I was listening, what I would ring
up about to think what the sweepstake for this weekend
is going to be about. But I've got no idea
that's the way we're going to go tonight. It's going
to be a If you don't understand the rules, feel

(03:45):
free to ring and ask, but it's going to be
a sweepstake. On what the sweepstake's going to be about?
There is so later on tonight there's gonna be a
sweep steak, but there's gonna have a I'm so excited.
I'm talking quickly later on tonight, there's going to be
a sweep steak, but we're going to have a sweepsteak
tonight about what that's sweepstake is going to be about.

(04:10):
Go figure, Gary looked promising, still ten to five. The
Highland is nearly scored, but they lost the ball right
on the tryline. I'm waiting for the inundation of the

(04:35):
people for the sweepstake within the sweep steak. Yeah, this
could be kind of cincillating. It could be terrible. Actually,
go go go go, go, Go, Go, Go, go go
go should have passed. Gary. It's Marcus welcome.

Speaker 4 (04:54):
I think it might be the soccer.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
The score on this because the trouble with the sweep
steak on soccer, right, Yeah, what can this tell me?

Speaker 5 (05:04):
What?

Speaker 2 (05:04):
The scores could be? Zero zero zero one one zero
one one two zero two one two two zero two
zero one. How many How many are there?

Speaker 3 (05:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (05:20):
Not enough? No, not enough. I've tried sweepsteaks before with soccer.
I didn't like them because if you ring up late
in the hour, he gets twelve seven, which never happens.
Good evening, Matthew, it's Marcus welcome.

Speaker 6 (05:35):
You're good Marcus, I don't know. I understand the concept.
But is it just one choice? One pick? Do I
give you one pick?

Speaker 2 (05:48):
You've got to guess what tonight's sweepsteak is going to
be about.

Speaker 6 (05:52):
Well, I'm going to say Auckland FC. The football.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
That's what the last guy said.

Speaker 6 (05:57):
Though way, well okay, then it would be the Warriors.

Speaker 7 (06:01):
No.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
But when you hear but Matthew, when you hear what
the sweet sake is going to be about? Right, yeah,
you've got your first reaction is going to be astonishment.
Then you're going to think, of course, then you're going
to think what a great idea, and you won't be
able to help yourself but to ring in and have
your guests for the sweep steak.

Speaker 6 (06:25):
But I have rung in.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
Oh yes, this is.

Speaker 8 (06:29):
No.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
This is the sweepstake. About what the sweepstake is going
to be about?

Speaker 6 (06:34):
That's quite any more on market.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
I don't think it's an oxy moron and sary enough
this is a sweep steak because you're not. You're it's
more a guessing combination for the sweepstake. But we are
calling it the sweepstake. Within the sweep steak, that's why
I said the warrior thepe No, it's not the word.
So I'd like most sweepstakes, I'm telling you it right
or wrong, if you've.

Speaker 6 (06:55):
Got it right, Okay, thank you for that, Thank you
for clarifying that.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
But you could come in later on.

Speaker 6 (07:02):
I will when I hear the sweeteak.

Speaker 2 (07:06):
Besides yourself. That's Matthew again. There'll be Matthew with his
guest for the sweep steak. Within the sweep steak. I'm
shaking with excitement. Nolean, Nolene, it's Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 9 (07:32):
Hi.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
What do you What do you think it is going
to be about, Nolene? The sweep steak.

Speaker 9 (07:40):
I think the sweep steak is going to be about
the people that ring in for the sweep steak, because
that could be zero to wow.

Speaker 2 (07:47):
What I wish I'd thought of that. So you think
the sweep steak is going to be how many people
have rung in for the sweep steak.

Speaker 9 (07:53):
We'll ring for the sweep steak.

Speaker 2 (07:54):
Yeah, but we couldn't have that because you already know
how many people rung in, wouldn't you?

Speaker 10 (08:03):
Mhm.

Speaker 9 (08:03):
It depends what the second sweep steak is really.

Speaker 2 (08:06):
I thought we might have had three sweepsteaks. If we've
got to sweepstake. How many people ring it for the sweepsteak?

Speaker 9 (08:11):
Oh well, so the people at ring and then you
will say, oh, well, how many females, how many males
or whatever? So because it might be getting close to
midn't I.

Speaker 2 (08:23):
I have to think about that. That was done my
head in a bit Noline, we're wearing a sweepstak or
what the sweepsteak is going to be about? Cheryltte's Marcus welcome,
Hi am the budget? How would you do a sweepsteak
on the budget?

Speaker 11 (08:38):
Like, I don't know, but it's such a ridiculous idea.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
Isn't it a ridiculous It could be like, yeah, I
want to do a sweepsteak on this on the budget
because it would be it would also be a day late,
wouldn't it two days late?

Speaker 11 (08:54):
I I don't know. I really don't know. But I
don't know. Why are you even thought of doing this?

Speaker 2 (09:00):
Well, it's a Friday, everyone's watching the sport. We've got
to cut with something. We've done the flag referendum and
we've done lips and lamps and by the way, I
put a video up on Facebook of an early lamps
and system with a railway in an old English shop
that sent wooden balls down rails. It's a thing of

(09:22):
absolute beauty. You put the money in the docket and
wooden balls. Good evening, Shawn, it's Marcus welcome.

Speaker 11 (09:33):
Yeah, Marcus.

Speaker 12 (09:34):
Look, I reckon it's the silver fur incest. Senator Joe
Gill's rugby. Wow, and I think a good one right
in the media for a week, Yeah, the stars and portrait.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
Who did Dancing with the Stars.

Speaker 12 (09:52):
It was one of the Canadian ones. She was, I
think the media.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
Okay, I think it's Alona ma and I think she's
an American woman, not a Canadian.

Speaker 12 (10:03):
Oh okay, yeah, yeah, but I'm looking forward to watching that. Yeah,
I think it's a big the game. I think women's
rugby is kind to be honest. They've watched a lot
of it, but they've watched the few and they actually,
you know, the running game is great, right, It's sort
of a little bit more running going on than than
the boys stops start.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
So yeah, and I was quite enjoyed the women's State
of Origin too.

Speaker 13 (10:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
I mean that's it was wet too, which was.

Speaker 12 (10:32):
Well.

Speaker 2 (10:32):
All the league seems to be wet New South Wales
at the moment, Yes, women's sport is having its moment,
although that's not what the sweeps teake about the sweet
Could we go one? Can we have a sweepstake about
a sweep tak? Not really? It's the most followed athlete
on Instagram, Alon o Mar is that right? Or the

(10:53):
most followed rugby player on Instagram? I suppose next is
going to be a room a woman's run it straight?
And they talked about that, having a sweepstake about what
the sweeps say. Everyone had a lot of chance to
look at the text, but there seems to be quite
on the coming. And I'll get a bing bong in
my ear and I'll tell you what, I've always got

(11:15):
tentatists with all the bing bong going on in my
ear the sweepsteak about what the sweepstake's going to be about?
Oh yeah, what else would you do on a Friday fantasy?
I mean the desperation? Should there be another flag refreendom?
Goodness me, Liz, welcome.

Speaker 14 (11:36):
A sweet steak about sweepstakes about sweepsteaks.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
You can't go three otherwise? How would we do that?
How would we do the third level.

Speaker 9 (11:45):
Well, you just get people to tell you all about
the sweep steaks.

Speaker 2 (11:50):
Their opinion of it. Yeah, okay, is that what you
want to do?

Speaker 13 (11:54):
Well, No, that's what I thought it might be.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
No, that's almost too meta for me. The sweet say
about the sweep day, about sweep steak. But thank you, Liz.
I'll get to the texts. Chris says, Is it about
the price of butter because of the Costco butter thing?
I'm not sure, although I did hear people in the
media voicing their concerned when they live in Hoka Ticker

(12:18):
and they're paying more for butter than the people shopping
at Costco, even though the butter they buy a Hoka ticker,
the butter at Costco is made a Hooka ticker and
shipped all the way to Auckland and sold by Costco,
and it's cheaper than what they can buy it for.

(12:39):
And they live in the same beautiful little town on
the railway right by the factory where they make it.
How would you feel, well, bloody Jeffers, Bloody jeff is
getting cheaper butter than us. Yeah, I'd like to just
feel a one cagey block of butter. I'd just like
to see what it's I've never seen one. I've never

(13:01):
seen a cagey block. I guess it's just like a
block of soft cheese. Anyway, get in touch. My name
is Marcus. Welcome, oh eighteen hundred eighty ten eighty to

(13:25):
a lot of suggestions for the sweep steak. About the
sweep steak. I'm going to read them all because of
very good is the sweep steak? On whether Russell should
be renamed Marcus? Whatever drugs you're on? Can I have
some loll sweepstakes? About a sweepstake? Dave Carpety never get

(13:52):
tired of hearing Jennifer Russia a master of intrigued. This
will hit the roof, well done, knoll sweep steak?

Speaker 15 (14:03):
Who will?

Speaker 2 (14:03):
Who will? When run it? The price of butt in
a month when a snail will reappear on Marcus's car? Marcus,
I guess the sweepstake is an unbretending go media stadium.
Are they more Auckland FC or Warrior fans? It's a
good thing. It's a sweepsteak. About what the sweepsteak will be?
About the sweepstake? Not quite the approval rating of the

(14:26):
government budget, the next, colmar Brunton, Marcus, it's so obvious.
It's the opening of the Bluff Oyster season. You are
teasing the audience. How could you have a sweepsteak about
the opening of a festival. Actually, the weather might be
all right in Bluff tomorrow. There's a few camp evans.

(14:47):
I saw. I was in the post office today, the
calm before the storm, Marcus. Is a sweepstake about the
number of times the word sweepsteak was used prior to
the sweepstake starting not any things is about the opening
of the railway workshop. The thing about a sweep steak,

(15:09):
it's normally people, Yeah, Marcus, just texting on the sweep steak.
On the sweepstake. The sweep steak will clearly be on.
It can only be on how many times the word
sweepsteak is mentioned on the show tonight. If so, I've
re lost count on the word sweep steak, but I'm
putting my guests on the sweep steak, not the sweepstake,

(15:30):
on the sweepstake, but the main sweep steak at five, six,
nine times, Marcus is a sweep steak on the name
of the person who takes the sweep steak and someone says,
run it straight Winston versus crusher Collins. No, but get

(15:51):
in touch if you think you can work out what
that is. Oh, it's coming in bed tomorrow. It's the
end of the month. Thanks for that snow and wind
thirty first of May, first of June the long range
weather for bluff. That's that is King's birthday, is it?

(16:17):
I think King's birthdays early this year? Twelve ten The
Highlanders lead the Crusaders. Twelve ten. The Crusaders have led
for the first fifty minutes, so now they're ahead. And
tonight there is a sweep steak and I'm having a

(16:41):
sweepstak to see if you can guess what the sweep
steak is about. I wish I had done it about
the price of butter, but I couldn't work out because
that would be too imprecise. I mean, we all know
we should be. It should be Soviet like the government
should dictate the price of butter, and it should be
in the budget, and it should be fixed around the

(17:01):
country like petrel on. Petrol's not fixed at it. Once
upon a time it was. If you've got a suggestion
on what the sweep steak will be about let me know,
Marcus is a sweep steak on whether they will be

(17:21):
any oysters for the Bluff Oyster Festival this weekend. Mary,
I think what they do. Look, I don't know this,
I'm not involved in the Ouster festival in any way.
I think they go out and get a lot of
oysters and just leave them in the harbor and just
on the sea, I don't know what, in pots or

(17:42):
in vessels with boys attached and just pull them up.
I think that's what they do, so they will have them,
although I see Edmondson saying in the paper today that
they're going out tomorrow to get them. But yeah, I
think they're probably slightly better organized than that. Marcus. It

(18:04):
would be for run it. If we've got Marcaus, I'd
be up to run it. If we've got to set
with politicians, this is a good idea, actually run it
with politicians. Jerry Brownie versus David Seymour, Judith Collins against
Chloe swarbrick SIDEI congrats to Spurs on the Europa League
title first one and forty two years. Someone stole my idea,

(18:29):
but different participants. As I was typing or don't you
hate that? But it's not about butter. It's not about
the Costco thing, and it's not about run It just
shows you what the country has become. This week's This
week's news has been dominated by run it and butter
at Costco. If I've seen one article about butter at Costco,

(18:50):
I've seen a hundred. In fact, I'm meaning to walk
next week I might cue for butter. I don't even
like butter. Although apparently on that show with money from
Master Chef they must be doing some around New Zealand
show they made mashed potatoes with a pound of butter

(19:14):
in it. Can you imagine that? Probably delicious? He'd be
good at run at Marnow, would he?

Speaker 11 (19:26):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (19:27):
Eight eight eight? I'm looking for suggestions if anyone knows
what tonight's sweepsteak is about. If you like, it's the
sweepsteak on the sweep steak, so get in touch. If
you've got any guesses for that. What do you think
it will be about? It's not about the football and
it's not about the women's rugby. And if you think

(19:50):
what we've always done, what do we have? We got
a list of what we've always done? A sweepstake on
in the past, Dan, I think we've done someone who
would sing the national anthem, and we had a recomplicated
one with the women at the women's score for the
Women's Football World Cup. I think, oh, in the top

(20:17):
four in order of the World Cup in twenty nineteen.
That worked quite well, didn't it, Because lots of variations then,
I mean, most of the joys, most of the joys
of a sweepsteak are explaining the rules to people or
making up the rules as you go. That's what I find. Anyway.
I don't think you'll take the whole night the sweepstake,
but after the rugby finishes, if people wanted to get
on here, I would imagine. Of course, it was an
amazing article about those people driving onto the airport at

(20:42):
the channels, wasn't it what a lot of every one
of the guys was a pet islander had come across.
But yeah, I'm amazing that kind of justice reached as
far as that island. Anyway, I was just reading that
before I come on you tonight. We are talking about
what the sweepstak's going to be about. This would be

(21:04):
a great test for your wisdom people. I think you'll
enjoy it. Twelve to ten, by the way, the Hollanders
lead twelve minutes left to go. This is over the Crusaders,
this is against form people. Good evening, Warren, the Warren Commission.

(21:26):
There you going good, Thank.

Speaker 9 (21:27):
You, Warren.

Speaker 10 (21:29):
I think it'll be on.

Speaker 3 (21:31):
Whether we should have a referend him on the flaground.

Speaker 6 (21:36):
But come up with it.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
There'd only be two. There'd only be yes, and they
would be the only two things in the sweep site
that way, would they?

Speaker 13 (21:43):
Oh yes, right, yeah, Oh well, I'm not going to
say anything else.

Speaker 2 (21:48):
I appreciate you coming through the Warren Commission, and it's Marcus.
Good evening and the green Gables welcome.

Speaker 16 (21:54):
Thank you. I'm ringing up about I heard you talking
about oysters. Yes, I absolutely adore oysters. And I saw
when I was making up my order that you could
get these things called trident in a little box smoked oysters.
Oh my god. They were absolutely ghastly. They were like tiny,

(22:20):
little about as big as my thumb, half my thumb, brown,
shrunken flavors things in and it's got on in vegetable oil, horble.
So just I don't even know how they could even
call the oisters. They didn't taste the oysters, they didn't
feel like oysters. Absolutely don't buy them.

Speaker 2 (22:43):
Have you tried the tin muscles in that same range?
I thought they were all right.

Speaker 16 (22:48):
I haven't tried muscles that i've after my experience with oysters.
I mean they ran into oysters. They were brown, and
there were horrible flavor, nothing like real oysters.

Speaker 2 (23:00):
But that was But that would have surprised you when
that there were three dollars at ten and it like
forty dollars a dozen. I would imagine I.

Speaker 16 (23:08):
Can't remember how much they were, but that they just
didn't have anything that reminded me one bid So I
thought I just warned people.

Speaker 2 (23:19):
Did you finish them?

Speaker 11 (23:22):
No?

Speaker 16 (23:22):
I checked them out to the birds.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
I don't know if you should be the oysters to
the birds. Maybe you should thank you. Therefore that and
are twelve ten highlands over the Crusaders. It's the last
nine minutes, and this is a desperation for the Crusaders.
Although I think a penalty has just got a kick.
A penalties just got against them. I'm not entirely sure that,
but that's a look on the players faces. Jason, it's

(23:46):
Marcus Hello.

Speaker 17 (23:48):
Good being Marcus, How are you tonight?

Speaker 2 (23:49):
Good? Thank you? Jason.

Speaker 17 (23:51):
Just thought I would rung up and just talk about
the Southerner. I went on last weekend and here it's
just been announced again to run again and lave weekend.

Speaker 2 (24:01):
Yeah. I can't quite work out why they're doing that,
the charge, the changing and hamor the league for it,
aren't they?

Speaker 15 (24:10):
Well?

Speaker 17 (24:10):
Yeah, well I was quite well patronized. Lots of people
on it from yeah, I suppose a good spread from
children on it. Children jumped on and tomrow and headed
down to zoons the day and then hit back again
in the afternoon. Yes, and there's some older people who yeah,
who I suppose we liver in the younger days of
riding Southern.

Speaker 2 (24:30):
There how many carriages.

Speaker 17 (24:33):
There was one senate class, which is where you get
on board on boards, and there's a cafe car and
there was about three other scene carriages the outdoor observation
car too, so it's probably about seven in total carriage
car and baggage.

Speaker 2 (24:53):
Did you go up and back?

Speaker 17 (24:55):
I went up on the Saturday and came back down
on the Monday morning. Okay, Yeah, it was very good.
It was lots of people on board.

Speaker 2 (25:04):
Yeah, yeah, and upsets me that they're indicating to people
like they might be bringing it back. But I think
there's nowhere in the world that will bring it back.

Speaker 17 (25:15):
I don't think they know, not in this current form anyway.
But I deal for you have some railcars. They they
were scripping on the rail rather than the locomotive hauled carriages,
because a locomotive is primary designed for hauling holding freight.
So and of course, yeah, in comparison to rail car.
I had the privilege of riding Arium thirty one from

(25:38):
Pior Tour and it was down in South Island, oh yes,
earlier last year. And yeah, and I sort of regard
it as the Red Rocket because it was very very
fast on the rail line because I rode it to
Arthur's Pass and then we came back on the bus
and the rail car got back before the bus got

(25:58):
back too.

Speaker 2 (25:59):
Quite okay, nice for Jason thinks. Then Chris has come
through the most boring or cringey talkback subjects year to date.
I'm not quite sure if that the Southerner I agree
the budget I agree cheese rolls calls offering to sing
on their poems, children being prompted to ring by their parents. Well,

(26:19):
that's not a sweepstake thing, is it. By the way,
I didn't see the supercars were coming to New Zend
and I couldn't quite order christ Church. I didn't really read.
I saw that was on the rundown of what the
earlier shows were about.

Speaker 18 (26:32):
Christ Church.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
Christ Church Supercars. Is it like a street circuit or
like Rapoona? Oh it's Rapoona, So that's not the streets? Oh?
Is that kind of interesting? I don't know. Christ Church
to host supercars for the first time, rpoon and Raceway
and Topau locked until twenty twenty eight. Oh, the redheads

(26:59):
in the South Island were like, that had give them
somewhere to go to just fifteen kys with the city
Rpooona Raceway, We'll bring supercars to christ Church, a city
steeped in motorsport culture now ready for its biggest ever event.
Am I right in thinking that supercars have seen their
day now that they're not making cars in Australia? Is

(27:20):
that not right? I think I might be right with
that one. But let me know about that twelve or
sorry about gone and gosh show up with the trained
person too cheapest? Yes, yes, we all know about what
the money was spent on. Yes, hijack topic creep Marcus,
I love the little smoked oysters. I put on a

(27:42):
cracker to eat. Well, I've always quite like those tinned ones. Actually,
the sweepstake could be if mister Luxon had here, what
would it be like red like his kids, or curly
long to his sold shoulders, or a mullet, black brown
or blonde or brindle? Your topic creep there, Well it's

(28:08):
someone on with a tenor voicters. Next thing, you know,
it's the Southerner. When that's how nicta Rader gets the
audience bakers talk about the Southern I'll tell you that now,
good evening, Bob, it's Marcus.

Speaker 13 (28:20):
Welcome, you're sweet state thing Marcus. I was just having
a guest. Maybe it'll be who's going to be leading
the National Party in the ex general election?

Speaker 2 (28:28):
Wow? You think we go there?

Speaker 18 (28:29):
Now?

Speaker 2 (28:30):
Maybe that's I kin't wonder if the tides changed on that,
has it? What are you hearing on the street?

Speaker 13 (28:38):
Oh well, we're just listening to what people are saying
lately in that they don't think he's got to be
running it and they want to get one of those
ladies that are in the Parliament to running the party.

Speaker 2 (28:52):
Okay, yeah, I'm not going to do that on a
Friday night though, but thank you, Bob. It's a good suggestion.
These are all very good suggestions for a sweepstake. Actually,
good evening, Phil Marcus, welcome you market going good PHILP.

Speaker 12 (29:11):
I heard your comment before about the supercars, and I
agree with you. I think it kind of has one.
It's of course, there was a lot more heart and
pride when the cars were my heir, you know, and
something's been taken away from it. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (29:26):
Well, everyone these days seems to follow Formula one, or
they seem to follow Scott Dixon.

Speaker 12 (29:31):
And yes, and all that time in what's.

Speaker 2 (29:36):
The other one? There's what? There's two indies in the NASCAR,
they seem to because the coverage is so good.

Speaker 12 (29:42):
Yes, well, even even to the extent where some of
the most famous drivers that we've ever known, Shane van
Gisberg and are doing drifting and indies and NASCAR all
of it are not even they don't even want to
be a part of the industry, you know what I'm saying,
because it's it's boring to them. Now there's no pride.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
Did they kill it or is it just because they
don't make Holden's in Australia anymore.

Speaker 12 (30:05):
I think it's the manufacturing side of things, and I
do believe that that just kind of basically buzz towards
the whole thing. You know, there was a real there
was something really good about, you know, racing a car
that your country built, you know, And I don't know,
I think that you've got American cars, now you've got Erebus, Mercedes.

(30:29):
How the hell did they get in there? That's Europea.
I just I just think that the kind of overdid it,
especially with the manufacturer introductions, I think, and now it's
just gone.

Speaker 2 (30:42):
Maybe they just tried. Maybe they just sucked Christen to
them and sold them a dud. Yeah, well I hope,
I hope not.

Speaker 12 (30:54):
I wanted to stay around too. I like my vent
supercar all that type of stuff, and it's really good
for New Zealand and Australian races, especially up and cameras
and stuff, you know, like.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
Hope, yes, just coming out there at the NFFL, thank
you for that. Nice to hear from you. By the way,
the Crusaders have when fifteen to twelve we've got the
Western Force against the Warritars. That happens tonight. Get in touch.
My name is Marcus. Welcome. I enjoyed you muchly tonight
that hour the sweepstake on that no one's known what

(31:28):
the sweepstakes about. You have another guest before I think
we'll start at the next hour, Marcus is the sweepstak.
Will Trump do something stupid before the end of the show.
It is not that. And this day and the year
two thousand the Marshall mads LP came out, which we
all owned. I'm sure it's amazing how big Marshall ma

(31:51):
our eminem is to the children. They know all of it.
I think it's through fortnite. He's e very well to
keep his profile alive. He's good with the words, I
suppose too. So the response has been over good. We're
having a sweepstake to see what the sweep steak tonight
sweep steak is going to be about. We've rereally do
a sweep steak. I've always thought the sweep steak was

(32:13):
the best in of a Friday night show that didn't
have their heart in it. So I've never done a
guess the score. I've never thought that was worthwhile. But
we've done a couple of sweepstakes, probably one every five years.
There will be one tonight, and it will be somewhat different.
But I'm wondering if you can guess what the sweep
steak is about. It will be about something topical, and

(32:34):
it will have enough different outcomes. It's not just a yes,
no one. It probably will take the hour, it might
go longer than that. Actually, factually, good evening, Susan, it's Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 7 (32:45):
Oh hello.

Speaker 14 (32:46):
I think the sweepsteak is about the new game that
people are running into each other.

Speaker 2 (32:53):
And how would that work? When's it going to be banned?
Or who's going to win it? Or how would it be?

Speaker 9 (32:59):
I think it's going to be banned.

Speaker 2 (33:01):
Okay, okay, but if we had a sweepsteak on that,
how would that sweep stake work. That's just kind of
what I'm wondering. I have no idea, no, no, nor
do why Okay, Well, Susan, I appreciate you coming through.
It's actually not about that. It won't be about running.
I think someone else suggested that. I think run it's
here to stay. The people seem to have loved it.

(33:24):
If there's money to be made, people will continue to
do it and promote it that we might take on
run it. So it's not run it. It's not the
color of Luxen's here if you had it. It's not
about the price of butter in a month, Marcus. The
sweepsteak has how many different topics people will have guessed
tonight before, say ten pm. That's not right, although it's good, Marcus.

(33:49):
I love my oysters. My family used to know where
I wanted to go for my birthday did It used
to be Valentin's All you Can Eat was a joke.
We got kicked out because I took the big bowl
that the oyster's coming back to my table. Were kicked
out twice. This is why people say I have a
titanium stomach. I see that Valentine is still around. I
was seeing something on social media. A couple of though

(34:10):
to do that. They're Valentines. There's no marbles. That was
my take on that one. Anyway, get in touch you
want to predict the sweep steak. Oh eight hundred and
eighty fifteen twelve the Heart the Crusaders have beaten the Highlanders.
There you go by the way. The Valentines. How many
are there? Not a very good website. I hope to

(34:35):
do a Hamilton Monaco Hornby north Shore sweepstake subject how
many people get booted from the RSA van on Saturday night.
I think they'll take everyone. I think they'll take everyone.
They're a tough duo that do it. It's the only
showing bluff the RSA after dark, I would imagine. I

(34:56):
think it's only opened two nights a week, Friday and Saturday.
The chippy there is quite good to TJ's. If you're
on the bluff and finding yourself hungry, could seem to
like it. I think they do loaded fries whatever that is,
or chicken salt. Is a sweepstake on either the breakup

(35:22):
of Fonterra to bring down the domestic dairy price. Yeah,
I hope that happens. Or where will dest these Church's
new location be? No, not quite, Marcus. The Warriors will
beat the Raiders on Sunday score twenty four eighteen. If
they do, they'll go to the top of the table
because I think the Bulldog had lost last night, so

(35:45):
of course they've got Crichton's out. What a legend he is.
Evening Reagan. Marcus, welcome, you're Marcus.

Speaker 17 (35:56):
Oh.

Speaker 19 (35:56):
I think the soulf sweet sake. I think your Mary
party and what the going to be a.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
Number of days at the compromised number of days?

Speaker 19 (36:07):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's that's what I'm thinking.

Speaker 2 (36:10):
It's not a bad idea. You do know. I have
got something in mind that I'm not just waiting for
the best one and saying yes. Though. Do you trust
me on that, don't you?

Speaker 18 (36:18):
I'm not sure. Actually, you're just putting your feelers out
there and seeing what comes in.

Speaker 2 (36:25):
No, I've actually got something, but I'll let you know
before too long. Marcus. There is the sweepstake on how
long it will be before Pepper Pick will have another
brother or sister. Loll yeah, funny, I'll show Pepper Pig.
It's slightly compelling. I'm not quite sure about the backstory

(36:46):
of Pepper Pig. I've watched a fair bit of that
as a father of the young when they were younger. Anyway,
By the way, the Crusaders are top of the Super
Rugby table now played thirteen one ten. I presume that's updated,
and the Highland is a bottom, so it was top
versus the bottom, so there's a fairly consistent I mean,
it was a good game. Harness could have won that,

(37:09):
but the Crusaders they've played thirteen one ten fans have
hung around for a long long time. I've heard people
in the car parks saying, it's still trying to get out.
I've experienced that car park with the Harlem globe trotters
for the poorly behaved kid. Wasn't good, Marcus. Is the
sweepstake about when Briscoes will have another sale lull? Don't
you love a lull? Marcus? Very specific? But is the

(37:33):
sweepstake about what position Scott Dixon will finish in the
ndy five hundred? Marcus? Is it about kids with rich
parents not getting the doll? No, it's not. Theresch A
lot of sport this weekend, a league Black Ferns, Chiefs
Onana pacifica Rooster, Sharks and Nicks versus Paces. Wow, that

(38:00):
what a ridiculous match that was. Are we getting another
rocket launch pad to be built somewhere in New Zealand? Anyway?
Do get in touched. My name is Marcus. Welcome if
you think you know what the sweepsteak is for, and
then we'll kick it off because it's going to be
a cracker. I hope with all the type, I hope

(38:21):
you don't underwhelmed by it. It'd be a worry. Is
it a sweepsteak about the Warriors? Or how tall will
Baron Trump be by the end of the year. Shamey's
not sporty because I mean he should be playing basketball
or something. I think he's into crypto, isn't he? The

(38:43):
whole family's into grift. Jean Marcus good evening.

Speaker 8 (38:47):
Oh hi Marcus, is your seat steak about next week's
state of origin?

Speaker 2 (38:51):
I'll be good if it was, wouldn't I haven't thought
about that. No, it's not because I wouldn't. It wouldn't
be about the square. Wud be the first time someone
got sent off? Wouldn't it for it? On rest? Welsh's
not in it, is he? No, it's not about that, Gene.
So here we go and tell you what the sweepsteak is,
and there will be a prize. I'm not sure what
the prize is yet, but we will get something for

(39:13):
the winner, because we don't even give away a prize,
but just to make it exciting, there will be a
prize for the winner of the sweepstake, and the sweepstake
is and it's quite exciting. I think you're going to
find this quite exciting. So you already now the National

(39:48):
Emergency Management Agency NIEMA have said that the latest test
for the testing of New Zealand's emergency mobile alert system
has been announced. It will take place on Sunday May
twenty five. That's this Sunday between seven, sorry, between six

(40:11):
and seven pm. Now, bearing in mind last time it
came through at six seventeen, So this year's sweepsteak is
and you'll know because we're all going to get at
the same time. This year's sweepsteak is what time between
six and seven you think the alert will come through?

(40:38):
We'll all get them. The only proviso for that is
the Warriors are playing at Go Medium Ounts Smart and
it'll be exciting if everyone there gets the alert while
they're in even like the guy Shuavarsa, the guy does
this show you. That will be fun. So the Warriors
play there that week and I think the kickoff is

(40:58):
at six oh five. So the question to you is
what time do you think urgency alert will go out?
It's sometime between six pm and seven PM. So there's
sixty slots. Ring up will take you to war then
we'll put you back on air and you give Dan
your phone number and you have your guess. I would

(41:19):
imagine the first slots to go will be the six
oh one, six oh six O six oh one, six
oh two, six oh three, six o four, six oh
five because of the warriors. I'm not quite sure if
those units at civil defense are involved, think about sport
or warriors or stuff like that. Also, so I've got
sixty slots for your prediction, So tell us what time

(41:40):
it is and tell us your reason. I'm Dan, I
want to slot. I'm going six seventeen, same as last year,
six seventeen, same as last year. There will be a prize.

(42:04):
I'm not quite sure what the prize will be. Let
me get a spreadsheet. Am I supposed to put the
spreadsheet and know? I'm just going to watch it to
see that everything's been taken. Okay, I don't even need
pen in this. Don't even bring a pen to work. Gary,
It's Marcus, Welcome and good evening. You're first off the rank. Okay,
this is like what's the show with the bags they
do on TV? It's in the big deal or no deal.

(42:25):
It's like that, isn't it?

Speaker 13 (42:26):
What deal?

Speaker 18 (42:27):
Though?

Speaker 13 (42:27):
I are you six nineteen?

Speaker 2 (42:29):
Reason?

Speaker 13 (42:33):
Just two minutes?

Speaker 18 (42:34):
So running two minutes late.

Speaker 2 (42:35):
Laura, so close to six seventeen? You reckon six seventeen?
Is the kind of the the that's coming ready? Yeah,
that's the standard they've set themselves to just be a
couple of minutes late.

Speaker 10 (42:47):
Yeah, brilliant.

Speaker 2 (42:48):
Gary, Gosh, it's going to be hard for me to
keep this interesting, is it? When people bring up Mike
with a K Mike good evening and welcome. I can
tell you good, thanks, Mike.

Speaker 18 (42:58):
Good good. I'm going to go six thirty six.

Speaker 15 (43:01):
Please.

Speaker 2 (43:01):
It's going to make it interesting when it comes through,
isn't it.

Speaker 15 (43:04):
Yes?

Speaker 18 (43:05):
And my reason is because last time on the first
half hour, so I'll say this time I want to
test it on the chicken half.

Speaker 2 (43:11):
Of course too, like the as the hand goes up.
But you'll be excited. You've got a mobile, you'll be
waiting for that when it comes through.

Speaker 18 (43:17):
Ye, I'll be watching the Warriors, so yep, we'll be fine.

Speaker 2 (43:20):
We'll be next to me and you'll have remembered the guests.
You don't need to write it on your hand or anything.

Speaker 18 (43:24):
No, no, I got it yet. Six thirty six.

Speaker 2 (43:26):
Okay, brilliant. Okay, so the numbers have gone are six seventeen,
six nineteen and six thirty six. Brilliant. The fon fonts
are different size, Dan, is it a problem? Gary got
a little tiny font? Gary's got a tiny font. Oh,
there we go. That's better. Who six seventeen, six nineteen,

(43:52):
six thirty six. No one's got six o'clock. It's gonna
be exciting the worries if everyone gets a tack and
they sure it'll be exciting and the commentators could make
a laugh, couldn't they? Gain or Marcus welcome.

Speaker 10 (44:06):
Hi Marca.

Speaker 5 (44:08):
I'm going six twelve. Really, I think they'll want it
sort of pretty quickly. Okay, there's no other actual reason,
but but yeah, that's how I'm thinking. The water out
the way early, and you know, people want us to
have they don't want to be bothered by that. Well,

(44:29):
I mean, it's a good thing to have, we need it.
But yep, that's what I'm going for six twelve.

Speaker 2 (44:34):
As I tried and reverse, I can't, for the life
of me think why they went six seventeen last year exactly?
Gain what we what happened the other year. I think
people should be having tex slurt parties. I mean it's
a good way to get us sort of familiar with
something that's actually quite a serious thing while we're getting text.

(44:56):
Is it for a tsunami? I'm not what you're wired is?
By the way, the numbers have gone US six thirty six,
six nineteen, six seventeen and six twelve or Gloria Gaynor
twenty seven away from ten Valens Marcus welcome.

Speaker 19 (45:14):
That's it? Cal okay, Carl undergone six three three as
in the movie Sex three three Squadron. I can't want
to have gone six month seven, which was The Damn Busters.

Speaker 2 (45:27):
But he already claimed that what hang on? How's that
the Damn Busters.

Speaker 19 (45:32):
Six month seven Squadron?

Speaker 8 (45:34):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (45:34):
Okay, of course, okay, yep, yep, yep, yep, copy yep.

Speaker 8 (45:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 19 (45:39):
So I predicted the Sex three three after the booby
to the Sex three three squads.

Speaker 2 (45:46):
He never managed to remake that, did the old the
key we filmmaker. He was supposed to remake The Damnusters,
wasn't he?

Speaker 18 (45:56):
I can't.

Speaker 2 (45:58):
He was going to do what he had. He had
Stephen Fry working on the script. They had the controversy
over what to call the dog. It was all happening
and we and it never happened.

Speaker 19 (46:10):
That's right because the original one they renamed it trigger, yes,
which people come to you was it too, because apparently
there was some praise Cowboy's Horse.

Speaker 2 (46:20):
Yeah, and they couldn't call it the N word and
they never got beyond that and they never had it made.
It was Peter Jackson, that's right.

Speaker 19 (46:26):
Yeah, because I needed the original movie the fifties of
city doing that came there. That's quite n You have
seen that one, and that one they had to change
their name as well.

Speaker 2 (46:38):
Did we get to did you go? Did you go? Dambusters?

Speaker 15 (46:41):
No?

Speaker 2 (46:41):
Did you go? What were you going? That's very free,
which is what.

Speaker 19 (46:47):
The movie six three pre Squadron, Oh yeah, which was
about a flight of mosquito trying to take a target
in Germany.

Speaker 2 (46:55):
Brilliant. Okay, then we're going to know you knew as
war movies, isn't he? Well, no one's gone the first
nine minutes. I thought that'd be the pick, the pick
of them. Actually, what time with the emergency mobile at
test message to be sent on Sunday anytime between six
zero if I was them. Oh, i'd keep them waiting
right to the end. Someone wants to enough. There should

(47:17):
be a slot for no go like it fails fail
to fire. I'm not quite sure about that. Oh, we's
my spreadsheet, wismos spread o. Pet Marcus, welcome, go on
six oh one. What's it to be, Pet, it's going

(47:39):
to be six thirsty six. That late. That's the latest
there's been any reason.

Speaker 10 (47:45):
Yeah, I know.

Speaker 9 (47:46):
That's late, but it's going to be halftime at the
Warriors game.

Speaker 2 (47:49):
Oh, it's a very good thought. Okay, that's a really
good thought. Okay, you appreciate that, Pet, she's putting some
thinking in it. Never thought about halftime is because I
know when half time it's full time. They might know
about because we could go and it could go to
golden goal or golden point. There'll be other stuff on
as well. So Pat's the only one in that last
ten minutes. There's no one in the first ten minutes,

(48:10):
but the middle is quite well taken up. Warren Marcus welcome.

Speaker 8 (48:14):
Hi Marcus.

Speaker 13 (48:15):
Yeah, I'm doing the same thing as the lady is
just on at six forty five.

Speaker 2 (48:19):
Actually, you go straight on the halftime whistle almost day.

Speaker 13 (48:23):
Yeah, it was forty minutes, so half half half of halftime.

Speaker 2 (48:27):
Yep, I like that middle of halftime, Warren, thank you,
they'll be exciting to it. Ericson, you won't gets the
beep going on? Brilliant, brilliant. Let's hope there's not a
quake or something terrible happens in that hour. That would
be terrible, wouldn't it. That'd be every civil defense emergency
person's nightmare that during the hour for the test, some

(48:48):
catastrophe happens. Oh, it's just a test, it's just a drill. No,
it's not a drill. This is really happening. Do it's
Marcus welcome? Hi is Marcus, Yes, this is the guest.
This is the emergency.

Speaker 15 (49:03):
Yes, Marcus.

Speaker 20 (49:04):
Hi, I'm saying seven and it's past six.

Speaker 2 (49:07):
I thought ye say seven o'clock or that was radical, No,
seven past seven six. I see you're down for that.
D any reason? Not too late?

Speaker 7 (49:16):
Oh you my favorite number seven?

Speaker 2 (49:18):
So brilliant like that a lot? That's nothing. I mean,
you can bring your favorite number. And by the way,
my favorite number is not seventeen. Helen. Marcus welcome.

Speaker 14 (49:27):
Oh yes, I reckon, it'll be about six thirty.

Speaker 18 (49:31):
Reason I've just think it's a good I got time.

Speaker 2 (49:37):
Really, I don't know why I did six seventeen last time.
You're down for it, Helen, thank you. Six thirty for Helen.
No one's between that eighteen twenty eighteen thirty half hour
apart from Helen. But that's down the next one. Move Marcus, welcome,
you're Marcus.

Speaker 8 (49:52):
I'm saying seven twenty five.

Speaker 2 (49:56):
Really it only we only go between six and six
seven o'clock.

Speaker 13 (50:01):
Oh yeah, well, well six twenty five then.

Speaker 2 (50:03):
Perfect, that's Lo's yours. They'd move, you're on it. And
then at Jennifer it's Marcus welcome, you're there.

Speaker 16 (50:10):
Yep, yeah, six eighteen wow.

Speaker 2 (50:14):
Yeah, that's because I do it a minute after last time.
That whole slot the same. Yeaes six seventeen the number
for me, So six seventeen, six eighteen, six nineteen is
all gone. That's the only flow we've got so far, Gene.
Three in a row, they're gone, wow, wow, it's looking good.
The spreadsheet. Jeepers, creepers, Jean, Marcus, welcome, Hi there now, Gene,

(50:39):
what time on the hour would you like for the
alert to go off?

Speaker 14 (50:42):
I'll go six fifteen.

Speaker 2 (50:43):
I can't believe people aren't going in the first ten minutes,
six fifteen. That's down for that gene that yours? Okay, yep, brilliant,
thank you for that. You we're filling it up. Get
your numbers and they won't last forever. That's a good one.
Fail to fire is like betting on zero or green
and roulette. A lot of people are texting in with

(51:07):
their area code. You've really got to ring in for
this one. But I liking area codes. Oh, that's it,
that's the that's the prize, Dan, Dan, you're not the prizes.
The prizes five kilos of butter, okay, okay, and I'll

(51:32):
go to costcos to get it. And if we can't,
it's five kilos of butter. People, of course it should
have been Why not thought of that? Is that enough?
Do you have to text the COEO to see if
we get ten kilos? We have to get a chili
bin descended, and won't we have to carry it? They'll
be hard for Anne Marie. It'll be an amount of butter,

(51:58):
probably ten kilos. No, I think it's got to arrive
at the door. Yeah, we'll get the we'll get the butter.
What do I want to yes, we'll seend the local
promo team to get We'll send the Zenium Thunders to
get it. Does our staff live out near Costco? Probably

(52:22):
most of them? May I think Nathan Rai's out that way. Anyway,
we'll get someone. So that's five or ten kilograms of
butter is the prize. So now we've got some takers.
I mean, it was full board anyway. I can't believe
it took me so long to think of that. Of course,

(52:42):
that's the love language of us. All now is just butter,
isn't it? Should we text the boss now?

Speaker 8 (52:54):
No?

Speaker 2 (52:54):
I think probably that's that's Captain's cool. I think we can.
I think we can. Yeah we can. He'll say, yes,
we can do it. How much longer is the butter
going to be cheap at Costco?

Speaker 3 (53:09):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (53:12):
Well, even if it's the last leader, it's bringing people in,
isn't It's so I'm going to go to buy my coffin.
They still sell coffins? Have they? What a giant beers? Okay? Okay,
never been to Costco? Then I got to walk to
the next week, so I'll be going. I'll be there
on the third, I think, so I'll probably go and
sign up and get the butter. Just not quite sure

(53:34):
how to get a home on the bus. Not the
bus all the way to Bluff but into Graham Street
for the studio. Well, I take the social media team,
get in touch if you've got your prediction. Oh wait,
undel eighty Tenadian nine two nine to the text. So

(53:56):
ten kilograms of butter or five kilograms is the prize,
and you've got to guess. And if you're vegan, we'll
send you the money or will send your nuts. We
won't send your nuts, but will send you the equivalent
cost of cashews or something. And if you're a nut

(54:17):
fobe and vegan, we'll just send you the money. Right,
So ten kilograms of butter is the prize for the
person that guesses what time the alert will come through.
They've said will between six and seven on Sunday. We're
beside ourselves. Someone said, Marcus, if I would, will you

(54:40):
send an autograph of you as well? Has to be lamented.
I think that's laminated, is it?

Speaker 12 (54:45):
Well?

Speaker 2 (54:45):
It is it is lamented. Hey, just before I get
back to the numbers, could some people text me if
faith because all the lines are taken up, do they
think would ten kilograms of butter be too much for
people because you'd have to your fridge couldn't handle it.
If you wanted to prize, what would be a reasonable

(55:08):
amount of butter to win? Because you can put in
your freezer. But we've got a tiny freezer. I mean,
I'm not gonna win its. Well, I could win it myself.
But if I win it, obviously I'm not going to
keep the butter. But yeah, it should it be five
or ten kgs of butter. What do you think should
be the answer to that? I don't appear to get

(55:30):
too much butter that they end up hardening their arteries
or something. I suppose you always give it away. Just
get the Facebook community page de Remarcus.

Speaker 21 (55:40):
Welcome, Hello, how are you tonight?

Speaker 2 (55:43):
Would ten kgs of butter be too much for you?

Speaker 13 (55:46):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (55:47):
Excellently, So five would be a better prize.

Speaker 21 (55:51):
I definitely think five would be a better prize. Okay, okay,
unless it's super soft.

Speaker 2 (55:57):
Okay, well, it might be super soft by the time
it arrives. What's your time dinner?

Speaker 21 (56:03):

onths on the tist and one is on the second.

Speaker 2 (56:33):
Ye okay, thirteen. But you think you debrah, she's just
five pounds of butter. Maybe when you're ask you how
much you want, you have five or ten CAGs. It's bias,
it's biased choice, winner's choice, and we you normally go
to say, we could use your photo for publicity purposes,

(56:54):
but we won't have you holding up ten cages of
butter an your phone alert.

forty six Indian neighbors here, forty Indian neighbors here on
my complex from.

Speaker 2 (57:50):

Speaker 14 (57:58):
Oh for some things that they use. Butter they like,
but they're modern on the beread. What people they have it.

Speaker 2 (58:09):
They could clarify it for just to clarify, okay, Helga,
Helga's ten kg, but she could clarify it with the neighbors.
I don't know what G is. I just remember the
just so stories when they ran round around the circles
and tuned into gee nine away from ten. When we're
halfway through to the numbers, because it might be hard

(58:30):
for you to work out which numbers are free, desiree.

I reckon. Everybody's after the ten kg and I'm going
to do six twenty seven, and you.

Speaker 2 (01:00:27):
Want the whole lot, the whole shooting match.

Speaker 3 (01:00:29):

four kg to the people above and below me, and
I'll take one two kg.

Speaker 2 (01:00:41):

God?

Speaker 2 (01:00:45):
That's generous?

Speaker 13 (01:00:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:00:47):
So suddenly six twenty six and six twenty eight, yep,
become better numbers because you've got streak, because even if
it comes one number less, you're getting better.

Speaker 3 (01:00:59):
Yeah, that's right, got to give.

Speaker 2 (01:01:01):
Away, that's tom Dan. Can we accommodate that? We can't
go on your spreadsheet though, can you? Gets brilliant, Tommy.

either side will get four? That sounds good, that's Tommy
at six twenty seven people. So suddenly six twenty six
and six twenty eight you got like you've got like

(01:01:24):
a consolation chance. Gosh, has there ever been such a
complicated sweep steak? Marcus? How about if people want the money,
they get the equivalent of five kilograms of butter. If

what the heck is going on? Please loll cheers.

Speaker 10 (01:27:03):
Rose.

Speaker 2 (01:27:04):
So we're having a sweep steak on what time the
emergency text will come through between six and seven o'clock
on Sunday. That's the one that tests for the earthquakes
comes through all the cell phones. Last year it was
six seventeen. They've toldus it's on Sunday between six o'clock
and seven o'clock. Now the prize is five or ten

(01:27:26):
kgs of butter from Costco and all the slots have gone,
so that's what's happened. I think it was Desiree that
wanted the cash for I got that right. I think
that's the way. I think she was the only one
that didn't want the butter. I didn't want the butter. Marcus.
The problem that you have given yourself is that the

(01:27:48):
emergency alerts come over about fifteen minutes. Witnessed it at
a community meal that I voted that I cooked for
Peter from Livin, so they were quite confident. It came
out at six seventeen last time. That was in their
press release. But what happens is I will have my
iPhone on It'll be the time that I receive it
on Sunday. I'll take a screenshot of that and that
will be the official time, and I'll send it to

(01:28:12):
Dan that night, and Dan will circle the name on
the spreadsheet which is on market slash Night's Facebook page,
and then I'll get the butter, hopefully on Wednesday or
Thursday of the first week of June, if I can

(01:28:32):
get to Costco and get it. Good evening, George.

Speaker 13 (01:28:36):
How are you good?

Speaker 2 (01:28:37):
George? Thank you?

Speaker 10 (01:28:40):
Look I'm ringing a few nights, two or three days.
I don't know exactly when I heard an excerpt on
the radio of a scene of a native snake in
New Zealand, Wow, which apparently is in the South Island,

(01:29:04):
and it is cited about it's or eight times a year.
And I'm just ringing to find out whether or not
you can find out or whether some of your people
who listen to you can give you an indication of it.
I have heard of sea snakes being coming ashore dead

(01:29:27):
in the North Island from the northern Tropics, but this
apparently is in the South Island.

Speaker 2 (01:29:33):
And it's a sea snake, not a landsnake.

Speaker 10 (01:29:35):
George, it's a land snake.

Speaker 2 (01:29:37):
It's a land snake.

Speaker 10 (01:29:39):
Yeah, And apparently it's in the South Island and it
gets seen about six or eight times a year.

Speaker 2 (01:29:45):
What show was it on, what station was it on?

Speaker 10 (01:29:48):
Look, I don't know. I just heard it very briefly
two or three days a week ago, and I've been
sort of mulling it over. And they said something about
having a Mary name. I haven't heard any more about
out it, and I haven't heard anyone else saying anything

(01:30:10):
about it, but it was quite definitely something that was
said on a radio station that I just happened to hear.

Speaker 2 (01:30:18):
You've got no idea what that would likely to be
used talk ZB.

Speaker 10 (01:30:23):
I don't know. Well, if I did know, I would
tell you, but I just happened to because I don't
sort of listen to a lot of radio, and I
just happen to be sort of whatever it was, and
that was Island. I just heard this guy's talking about
this native snake in the South Island that only yet
seen six or eight times aer year, and they were
talking about the mary name of it.

Speaker 2 (01:30:49):
So I thought, I can't think of what it could be.

Speaker 10 (01:30:56):
No, I don't know either. I just thought maybe you
could find out on your confusion, or whether someone listening
to your program may have some inkling of it. But
I've never ever heard of it, and as I always
thought us everyone with snake.

Speaker 2 (01:31:10):
Free unless it was a crake, I don't know.

Speaker 10 (01:31:15):
I've got no idea. I just did that except of it.
I only heard it very briefly.

Speaker 2 (01:31:22):
Yeah, I just wonder if it was a craake.

Speaker 10 (01:31:25):
I have no idea. I will never clue. But as
I say, I just thought maybe someone might ring in
and say about it, or you might say it on
your computer or some such thing, you know. Yeah, anyway,
I leave it.

Speaker 20 (01:31:39):
With your film.

Speaker 2 (01:31:41):
Do you know what the multi word for it was?

Speaker 10 (01:31:44):
No, no, because I didn't hear it. They just saying it,
talking about something to do with the merry name of it.
But for whatever reason, I didn't hear the rest of it.
Whether I walked out of the room or where, I
don't know. I just heard that little bit about it,
you know.

Speaker 2 (01:31:59):
But it could have been a bird the crak that's
from suggesting. But you think that's not right?

Speaker 10 (01:32:05):
Well I don't.

Speaker 9 (01:32:06):
No.

Speaker 10 (01:32:06):
They just said about the snake that you only get
to get seen once sex or eight times in the
South Island, and outside of that, I don't know. But
I thought, well, I haven't heard anything more about it.
But I thought, well, maybe someone who might have heard
more of it might be able to ring you and

(01:32:26):
tell you more.

Speaker 2 (01:32:28):
What's your interest in it?

Speaker 10 (01:32:30):
Well just basically that I just heard it on the radio,
and I was always left with the impression that news
even with snake free. And that's as much as I know.

Speaker 2 (01:32:42):
Are you like okay, George, I let it go.

Speaker 10 (01:32:44):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (01:32:45):
Teen to eleven Phillips Marcus.

Speaker 22 (01:32:47):
Welcome hello, just about the mysterious snake. From time to time,
eels will leave one ribbert or scream ask me, or
one habitat for an other and and go to another.

(01:33:10):
And they will squirm and wibble themselves across the ground,
which they are capable of doing. And now it is
highly possible that that that that was the sighting that
someone saw and thought I bore back to snake. And
of course it had a marry name.

Speaker 2 (01:33:30):
It was a tee yeah Turner Hickey. Yeah, yeah, appreciate it, Phil,
Thank you, evening, Sam Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 20 (01:33:40):
Oh side Marcus. I just missed the last call that
he mentioned the snake.

Speaker 2 (01:33:44):
No, not really said it could be an eel.

Speaker 20 (01:33:47):
Oh no, noble, there was a snake. I listened to it.
Can I tell you the radio station?

Speaker 2 (01:33:51):
Of course you can.

Speaker 20 (01:33:53):
It was Jesse Mulligan's afternoon show Critics the Week, Yes,
and he can if he tunes it and he can
find the audio of the program. But it's the venomous,
ocean dwelling yellow bellied sea snake.

Speaker 2 (01:34:10):
Oh yeah, yeah, well yeah, well I think anyone knows
is a sea snake? Okay, yeah, okay, because he said
very much it was a land snake.

Speaker 20 (01:34:16):
Okay, yeah, yeah, Well it's just it's called the hydrophis
orus and.

Speaker 2 (01:34:23):
There's about eight come up a year. But it's the
South is it South Island?

Speaker 20 (01:34:29):
It's often said to you has no snakes, But I'm
just sting that the social snakes in her orders. No,
it doesn't say but.

Speaker 2 (01:34:40):
I don't think. I don't think that comes down. Yeah, okay, you.

Speaker 20 (01:34:43):
Might have heard another program, but that's the one.

Speaker 2 (01:34:46):
Yes, last thing that's last thinking of as well, Sam,
thank you for that. Hey, seven away from eleven people,
I'm hitdled twelve. My mother in law had a dead
snake in a jar that she swears they caught in Wistport.
I saw the snake, but always questioned whether it was
caught in Wistport. Definitely a snake. I think the news
i'd about a stake that gentleman was talking about my
have been a sea snake. I'm sure be a sea snake,

(01:35:08):
wouldn't it. I mean there's been a bit of talk
because three or four have been found, and one of
them that they said your dogs can eat them or
your dogs shouldn't eat them. I wonder how much we
have to spend on butter next year for the prize.
I have slightly panicked about buying the butter. We'll have
to go to HR don't even know how vans or stuff.

(01:35:32):
We can go around out to Costco's in Marcus. If
Kiwi Row had any brains, they would run the Southerner
from invcard would depicted one day and back the next
every day a week. It'd be empty and it'd take forever. Yeah,

(01:35:53):
and it pains me to become a trained denier. But
people have some strange romantic fixations and they'll catch it.
And of course they won't because everyone's wedded to their car.
They either want their car or they want to get
there in a hurry. I like the buses. I loved

(01:36:14):
the week on the intercity going from funge Ay to
Bluff or invert Carget was tremendous via New Plymouth and Masterton. Yeah,
it flowed remarkably smoothly, apart from the man at the

(01:36:36):
Auckland station that thought he'd been robbed, which was alarming
for the children. He wanted to go through the security
footage to see who's taken his bag, but I think
it was just been loaded onto the bus. Marcus. I'll
never pay eight dollars for a scone can whip up
a batch of four and get twelve scones. Yes, scone

(01:36:57):
used to be something the less well off people could eat.
So how can they say they're not making any money
of an eight dollars scon This is the woman that
cafe at the christ Church Library when the food is good,
but she's not making money on a scorn cheapers, here's

(01:37:19):
a funny text. Don't bother watching the Monaco GP. Monaco GP,
the last time somebody who passed other car on that
race was nineteen seventy three. Yeah, my short love of
Formula one lasted one race. We all sat down to
watch the China Grand Prix and not very interesting at all.

(01:37:42):
I think it's been interesting since has it from my take? Anyway?
Good evening, Granted's Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 8 (01:37:52):
I just heard you mentioned the thinking of eighteen miss Hodden.
I've always, all my life, I've been that of an enthusiast,
enthusiast about naval matters. I'll tell you just today I
I had a build of Fuller come to my place
and I mentioned that I had a model of a

(01:38:13):
Tammi model and brought it out and showed it to him.
He didn't know very much about them, so I gave
him a rundown on what happened in nineteen forty one,
And it wasn't.

Speaker 2 (01:38:25):
Tire you keep going.

Speaker 8 (01:38:28):
It wasn't until a few hours later I realized that
it was today in history that Hood was stunk.

Speaker 2 (01:38:35):
Could you give many great Could you give me the rundown?

Speaker 13 (01:38:39):
Yeah?

Speaker 10 (01:38:39):
Sure.

Speaker 8 (01:38:39):
HMS Hood was a battle cruiser built at the end
of the First World War, commissioned in nineteen eighteen nineteen
twenty roundabout then. So it wasn't It didn't have as
much armor as a proper battleship, but it had a
margin of speed over a battleship, and the belief was

(01:39:02):
that speed was aetion in itself, making it harder for
enemy battleship to keep it keep contact with with a
faster anyhow, it was a pride of the Royal Navy
through the inter war years. Visited New Zealand in nineteen

(01:39:24):
twenty four. You can actually find a photograph of it
tied up at Princess Wolf in Auckland. My father went
on board it as a visiting member, you know, the
public could go on board. And then the years went
by in World War Two came along and the authorities

(01:39:46):
in the Admiralty knew that it wasn't sufficiently armored for
modern warfare, but they never found the time to put
it in dry dock and make the modifications necessary. And
then the Bismarck was built in Germany, and the Admiralty
knew a bit about it and knew that it intention

(01:40:07):
was to break out into the Atlantic Ocean and sink
Allied convoys. So come May nineteen forty one, they knew
that the Bismarck had left the Boultice and was in
the Norwegian Fiord near the city of Bergen, so they

(01:40:27):
watching it intently, and they were aware that it left
Bergen and it went north and westwards in the North Sea,
and the options were for to go through the Denmark Strait,
which is west of Iceland, or to the eastern side
of Iceland between the Pharaoh Islands and Iceland. So they

(01:40:50):
despatched the Hood and the new battlest Prince of Wales
to cover both those passageways. The Hood would hang about
in the area to the south of Iceland, so it
could go either the Denmark Straight or the Eastern side.
They must have realized, oh British cruisers spotted the Bismark

(01:41:12):
in the northern end of the Denmark Straight in the
evening of May twenty three, so they knew it was
making the runs through the Denmark Straight during the night,
so radio signals alerted the Hood and Prince of Wales
where the Bismark was and they made moves to intercept

(01:41:34):
it in the early hours of May twenty four, which
was in those days Empire Day, and the two British
warships approached the German warships and they were because they
were approaching that they only had their four guns available

(01:41:55):
to shoot at the enemy. The rare guns were well
they couldn't be brought to bear, but the Germans could
deploy their full board side. It was a feature call
crossing the tee where the enemy warships were crossing the
bows of your own warships, so British were in the

(01:42:15):
reverse position of the best tactical position to be well.
The shooting started about well. It started eight minutes before
the Hood was hat and blew up and it broke
in half, both bow and stern, rising at a steep angle.
It would have been spectacular site for anyone who saw

(01:42:38):
it and went down. In about two minutes, it had
completely disappeared. Prince of Wales had to take avoiding action
to avoid running into it. Into the record, and only
three men survived the sinking, and when the rescue destroyers

(01:42:59):
arrived about three hours later, I think it was just
those three men still alive. And as far as I
can tell, there weren't even any bodies in the ocean.
Appears that the everybody went down with the ship except
those three.

Speaker 2 (01:43:17):
And there were fourteen hundred people on board, is that right.

Speaker 8 (01:43:20):
Yeah, fourteen hundred and nineteen I think, or eighteen.

Speaker 2 (01:43:24):
Why so many, Well, in.

Speaker 8 (01:43:28):
Those days you needed a fair number of crew in
the engine room and in the boiler rooms, and in
the four gun turrets there were four twin gun turrets,
because it had eight fifteen inch gun turrets, and there
might have been about approximately one hundred men servicing each
of those turrets right down in the magazines, and the

(01:43:52):
men down in the magazines were a lot down there.
They had no chance of getting out. That was normal,
you know, for the safety of the ship, not the
safety of the men. Then there were about ninety five
officers I think, and thirteen hundred thirteen hundred and ten

(01:44:14):
crew approximately, and so they all disappeared and the Prince
of Wales continued the fight, although it was a brand
new ship, and it got a fair amount of punishment
and had to break off the action or it would
have been sunk. Should have been sunk had the Germans

(01:44:35):
made different decisions, had they decided to go after the
Prince of Wales, no certainly could have sunk it. That
would have been an even greater calamity for the Royal Navy.
But the Royal Navy brought up other warships like the
couple of aircraft carriers, and about two days later the

(01:44:57):
torpedo aircraft from a Swordfish plane managed to hit the
Bismark in the rudders jan the rudders at fifteen degrees
or something so that the ship was virtually unsteerable then
and they were able to bring up a sister ship
of the Prince of Wales called HMS King George the

(01:45:21):
fifth and HMS Rodby, most powerful ship in the fleet
with nine sixteen inch guns, and those two ships pounded
it to pounded it to a wreck. On the morning
of the twenty seventh and May nineteen forty one, about

(01:45:43):
six hundred miles west of the French port of Saint
Nazir or Breast, either one. The Bismark went down and
they only picked up about one hundred and ten or
one hundred and fifteen survivors, and then Robert Bellard discovered
the Oh yeah, yeah, some years later.

Speaker 2 (01:46:06):
Just to come of quick questions, grant is the is
the reason a Hoods remembered?

Speaker 15 (01:46:10):
Is it?

Speaker 2 (01:46:10):
What of Is that Britain's worst maritime disaster?

Speaker 8 (01:46:15):
Yeah? For the Royal Navy it quite probably is.

Speaker 2 (01:46:18):
Yeah, okay, and it must have been it must have
been a lucky shot from the bis Mark that sunk
it so quickly.

Speaker 8 (01:46:25):
Well, there's a great controversy there because Bismarck was accompanied
by a cruiser with age inch guns and the Hoods
weakest feature was its deck armor at the flat deck,
not a side armor, so the British hammer wanted to
get in close too to prevent the to overcome the

(01:46:47):
exposure of his horizontal deck armory. In doing that, he
probably overlooked the fact that the cruiser with its agents
guns would have been lobbing shells of a different flight trajectory,
and they would have been coming down down from a
high angle on to the deck Agents shall probably crash

(01:47:09):
through the hood deck armor, and very possibly was the
ship that sent the Hood. But it didn't suit the
Germans to give the credit to the Prince Ouigen over
and over the Glamorship the Hood. Oh sorry, the business.
And it didn't suit the British to give the credit

(01:47:30):
to the cruiser either, because they didn't want to want
it known that Agents Cruiser Agents Gun Cruiser might have
sunk the pride of their Maybe it's an interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:47:43):
Situation, that's sort of interesting. Look, was there an end
to the story with the builder right once you told
him the story as well? Who you'd finished that part
of it? I know, I interrupted you when you're talking
about the builder after you'd shown him the model.

Speaker 8 (01:47:57):
Well, he's so much younger than me. He didn't know
anything about it was all new to him. He didn't
know about the bismark or the battle or anything. A
great movie called I think The Business sort of tells
it fairly accurately what happened in those few days. Britain
was in a very very vulnerable position, facing defeat. Even

(01:48:21):
even though they'd won the Battle of Britain, they were
by no means out of trouble. With the Germans holding
all all of Europe around them.

Speaker 2 (01:48:31):
So how long was there between the hoods sunk and
between the Bismarcks sunk? What was the gap of time there?

Speaker 8 (01:48:39):
Well, three days am six am on the twenty fourth
and ten am on the twenty seventh. Yeah, there was
a mighty case.

Speaker 2 (01:48:52):
Oh I appreciate you coming through Grant. That's revery interesting
and it's interesting that you've got that model. We just
mentioned that today, But thank you for that good evening.
Diet's Marcus welcome?

Speaker 7 (01:49:01):
Oh him, Marcus, Hey, well, I have to say what
an amazing call it was.

Speaker 2 (01:49:06):
Yeah, wasn't it just hit all those specter's hands there
like that?

Speaker 7 (01:49:13):
Yeah, and it was interesting because you could actually, you know,
understand what he was, you know, indicating. It was just incredible.
So good on him. Mine mine's pretty boring after it
really into climax after that. But anyway, I started ringing
because I've just costed out my beautiful date scones.

Speaker 2 (01:49:36):
Yep, how many?

Speaker 7 (01:49:38):
I did eight? Or I do eight and ate fairly
good sized ones and they work out to be and
I've allowed for a bit of electricity as well, and
I can make eight beautiful SCons for fifty four cents each.

Speaker 2 (01:49:55):
Wow, and it's go. And it's with butter.

Speaker 7 (01:50:00):
That's with I actually use one hundred grams of butter.
So I really do a buttery beautiful.

Speaker 2 (01:50:06):
Okay, you're not skimping. Sorry, you're not skimping on the ingredients.
You're using the butter.

Speaker 8 (01:50:13):
I'm not skimping.

Speaker 15 (01:50:15):
It's just me.

Speaker 7 (01:50:16):
So I do one hundred grands of butter, three cups
of self raising flour, teaspoon of baking powder just to
stride in for the excellence, and a cup of milk
and whack it together, and I mix up oh a
half dozen dates or about eight dates. So I've costed
them in as well. And so I've added in a

(01:50:40):
dollar for electricity because it only takes ten minutes.

Speaker 2 (01:50:45):
And yeah, and how long does it take to make?

Speaker 21 (01:50:50):
Oh?

Speaker 7 (01:50:50):
Probably I could do a batch in about ten minutes,
could have an Now, okay.

Speaker 2 (01:50:56):
That's the thing. So you probably have to put a
fewer commercial kitchen. You'd have to pay the baker and
that might be seven dollars labor or something like that.

Speaker 7 (01:51:04):
But even so, well, okay, even so, there's something terribly wrong.
And I felt really said, I agreed with John when
he was talking about it this morning, about the library
and people going in there. You know that it's over
the top, and I think what happens is.

Speaker 2 (01:51:22):
How do you been saying it's a pretty good operation.
It's a pretty buzzy operation. That library. It's a fantastic library.
I think the cafe is very good there.

Speaker 7 (01:51:30):
It probably is, but I just think that now and
then you know, it's just a shame that such high
prices are on such really basic stuff, because maybe I
should contact the library and say, look, I can deliver
them the scones, and you know they can deliver them
to people for even three or four dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:51:49):
Nice to hear from you, do. I thank you ten
away from twelve. Good evening, April Ats Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 9 (01:51:55):
Oh good evening, Marcus. I was really interested to hear
about Agamus Hood because when I was seventeen I joined
the Remens in England, the Women's Royal Naval Service. My
first posting was to Whitehall and working in the communications
into their encoding and decoding, and my commanding auser there

(01:52:17):
was Lieutenant Ed Briggs and he was one of those
three survivors of the hood. Wow, I know, isn't it
funny and I actually come ble of the ways in
New Zealand and here people talking, they're they're that gentleman
talking about the who. But he had to be pressed

(01:52:39):
to sort of say anything about his experience in the water,
and he said he wanted to devote his life to
helping others. And he was one of the most kindest
men that you could imagine. I never met any of
the other two survivors, but for my first nine months

(01:53:05):
there at Life All he was my CEO and and
was a tremendous personality, but very humble.

Speaker 2 (01:53:13):
Did he talk about his circumstance.

Speaker 19 (01:53:15):
Was he was he on a.

Speaker 2 (01:53:20):
Very lucky part of the ship to have survived or
did you know anything about what happened that how he
was able to survive.

Speaker 9 (01:53:26):
The well, well, he just said that for some for
some reason, he got blasted into the water. He said,
it was like as if as if some wind had
had blasted him into the water. And he was well
away from the ship, and he he raced over and

(01:53:52):
held up one of the other survivors, one of the
other the two and held them up and until you know,
flotsam came up that they were able to hold on too.

Speaker 2 (01:54:08):
I missed the story from the previous guy and was
there a one of the English the British ships came
and talk about the water? Is that quite soon after?
Is that what happened?

Speaker 9 (01:54:19):
They were in the water quite some time? Apparently I
sat down with him one day during what we called
stand easy and stickies, and he was just talking about
my background, and that's when I discovered that he was
one of those three survivors. Off the hood. He was

(01:54:44):
he was an ordinary seaman at that stage, but it
wasn't too long before he went through for officer training
and he only he rose to the rank of lieutenant commander,
but he was a lieutenant when I knew him, and
he was in charge of the communications center at Whitehall.

Speaker 2 (01:55:05):
And what year would have that been that you were there?

Speaker 9 (01:55:09):
I was there in nineteen sixty three. I was one
of the first intakes of seventeen year old you know,
they kept offping the age. But I was only there
for nine months because I was transferred to Fleet airon
and I went down to work in the tower at
Caldos in Cornwall doing you know, a controst, doing air

(01:55:32):
control work.

Speaker 2 (01:55:34):
And he would have been in his fifties then would
that be right. Ever, kind of got the time time frame.

Speaker 9 (01:55:39):
Right when you're seventeen, Marcus.

Speaker 2 (01:55:42):
Yeah, you're col I could work it out myself.

Speaker 9 (01:55:49):
He still had dark hair, but I can remember its thinning.
And he showed me a photograph of him as a
nable semen where he was he was a sort of
medium height and quite quite slender in the you know
that their uniform with a bill bottom and the the
the oversized collar. But of course he was an officer

(01:56:13):
so well, officer juniforman had filled out quite fastly since
the war. But I could still see it was the
same the same person. But I feel, you know, that
just something nice, just something different happened to me that

(01:56:35):
that that, uh, you know, I did meet one of
these survivors, mind you. I did have to bring in
Prince Charles and Prince Philip once at Carl Drose, and
I had to ask them all sorts of questions, and
one of the standard questions is do you have any
real ips on board? It came up just a couple

(01:57:00):
of couple of old princes.

Speaker 2 (01:57:04):
Look rather so glad you've cord. Look. I certainly hope
that Grant heard that too. I think Grant would really
appreciate that connection with him being so knowledgeable that so
thank you so very much. That's a great way to
round that off. So look, I can't get to everyone, sorry,
so thank you to all the calls tonight. Look forward
to the alert on Sunday. That is me for the
night people. Someone has texted Marcus ted Briggs, one of

(01:57:29):
the three survivors of the Hood only died in two
thousand and eight eighty five. Someone that you Hodes surviv
in the water party have been completely covered in heavy
ships oil. A lot of people talk about how many
dates die put in the scones and I kind of
was shocked about the eight too. I thought that would
be each scone. But there we go. Now anyway, that's

(01:57:54):
it for me. Gym's along next and I'll talk to
you again on Monday. Enjoy your weekend, go the alert.
Can't wait.
