Episode Transcript

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

Speaker 2 (00:22):
Even more there maybe time it seems I'm far on
the wong rier because I away bye side.

Speaker 3 (00:49):
Eight o seven you ze in, greetings and welcome. There
is sport tonight. I'll keep you updated with that both
the tennis in the rugby league from Sydney, so it
starts at ten I think the tennis about the same time.
If you're having trouble with the tennis, you've got to
get Disney Plus. Don't quite know what's happened there. It's
on ESPN, but that's the American feed. It's not all
the matches. If you go to Disney Plus, you can

(01:10):
pick and choose. I think that's kind of what I've
worked out, So yeah, good luck with that. I know
that people that are into tennis, they're real passionate, so
I'll be at scores and updates for that anyway, And
in the meantime it's talked till twelve. Mikey bebbans along
at midnight tonight. The number is eight hundred and eighty
ten eighty forever to talk about today. Actually, the MOA

(01:31):
won't happen because yeah, I follow that information fairly closely
about the dire wolves, and they were just standard wolves
made slightly to look like dire wolves. They just change
some of the DNA to not really dire wolves as such.
So yeah, they'll just find a bird'll just be like ostriches.
They'll just bring ostriches and put some MOA DNA that

(01:54):
make them look slightly more like mowers. But they won't
be bringing back moers. So it's slightly disingenuous the talking
about that. So although people get excited by it, I
don't know where you'd want them. So if it happens
in forty years, go for it. But yeah, it's not
going to happen in ten years. Where would you put them.
I don't know. I think probably our whole ecosystems change
so much. I'm not quite sure if you bring the

(02:18):
MOA's beck if they will be a good thing or
a bad thing, And often you won't find the resultant
it's too until it's too late. But anyway, here we go.
They'll get people talking for a couple of years. They
want it a millionaire headlike headlines saying in a Jurassic
Park type situation, oh, people love that. Anyway, I think
it's probably more exciting birds to bring back anyway, rather

(02:39):
than the MOA. Let's start with some of the smaller,
more exciting ones, perhaps like the HUEA or something like that,
that might be better. But anyway, I think it's a long,
long long way away. Interesting that Paris Hilton's involved with
financing it, which I thought was quite good. Well, I
didn't see an image of her today on and what
was she doing?

Speaker 4 (02:59):
She was.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
No, I won't go into that actually anyway, ten past state.
If you want to get involved, Marcus till midnight here
till twelve you're doing to get involved in open talk.
Anything goes by the way too. You'll enjoy this, some
of you. One of the New Zealand First members Jamie R. Buckle,
Now I think that's a guy, because Jamie's one of
those names that go both ways. That could be a
man or a woman. So the bill that Jamie R.

(03:26):
Buckle has introduced would require purchases to accept cash for
small would require retailers to accept cash for smaller purchases.
It's called correct Cash Transaction Protection Bill. Now, if that
becomes law, it would require retailers to accept cash for

(03:46):
goods sold for up to five hundred dollars, and retailers
of goods like food would be required to accept it
for even larger purchases because of essential it's a essential atum.
So there we go. That's what's happening. That's what you said.
First is proposing, which probably from a political point of view,
is quite clever because there are conspiratorial type people that

(04:09):
love that stuff. Cash is king, So yeah, there'll be
votes on that. Although most people still use cash occasionally,
I think only thirty three, only a third of people
hadn't used cash in the last seven days. So I
wonder if that's a bill that you will support New
Zealand first on the back of you think noone's getting

(04:30):
everything in line for the next elections, aren't they. It's
going to be about law and order, and I think
with the New Zealand first, it's going to be on
sort of marga type conspiratorial stuff. They want to make
cash acceptable all those people, if correctly pointed out, it's

(04:50):
probably inflationy. It'd probably make things more expensive like smalls
at events, food caravans having to have security and stuff
for money because people don't want to have a lot
of money hanging around. They prefer just the FPOs transactions
because this less leakageles goes missing, less theft less things
like that. And yeah, that's a situation. So yeah, it's

(05:13):
also more expensive to process cash than electronic payment. So
from a retailer point of view, I think the handling
of cash is more expensive. So there we go. I
wonder if you'd vote for that. That's a situation. I
want to start the is that something that you would
switch to New Zealand first for? On the fact that

(05:33):
they are saying that they're going to make it compulsory
for retailers to accept cash. I couldn't care less. To
be fair, I won't be voting for New Zealand first
for that. I won't think, oh, well, that's a great idea,
that's what we need. We're heading to helen a handcart.
Most people, I think are handling the transition to electronic

(05:54):
transactions pretty well, and other countries probably handling it better.
Other countries. You go to places like China, there's virtually
no cash and they seem to cope okay with that.
But I'm just curious to know. I haven't heard much
about Jamie R. Buckle, So he's making it. If it
is a he, he's making a bit of a claim
to fame before the next election. So there we go.
I wonder if that will work for you. The number

(06:15):
is eight hundred and eighty ten eighty nine nine two
to text. Will you switch to New Zealand first? Because
the other thing I wanted to make I want to
chuck into the mix tonight. And this is the situation
which who has trouble sleeping? No not who has who
has trouble getting to sleep? And I want to know

(06:40):
your great techniques forget not staying asleep, but getting asleep,
like cognitive shuffling or white noise or counting backwards or
because there's a pretty imaginative solutions to get to sleep.
A cognitive shuffling. You think of a word and then
think of as many words as possible that start with

(07:02):
that letter. So think of a random word. It might
be bad time. Then you think it as many words
as you can to start with B, and then you
think it as many words that start with the next
letter would be E, then D, then T, then I,
then M then E. The idea is these random words
will help stop your brain from cycling through anxieties or
trying to problem solve late at night. So apparently what

(07:24):
you need to sleep at night is a circuit breaker
to stop the anxiety and the obsession. The other one
is counting backwards from one hundred, one hundred, ninety seven,
ninety four, ninety one, eighty eight, eighty five, eighty two,
seventy nine, seventy six, seventy three, seventy that's the way
it goes for those ones too, So techniques that try

(07:46):
and test the techniques to get to sleep. If you
want to talk about that, I'm up for that. It's
fourteen past eight, Andre, it's Marcus. Welcome and good evening.

Speaker 5 (07:56):
Hei Margaret, how are you very good?

Speaker 3 (07:57):
Thank you? Wondering what's happening?

Speaker 5 (08:00):
Just just got something going on in the community that
i've section on in Barrytown, the west coast of Graymouth.
Are you familiar with that?

Speaker 6 (08:14):
The world?

Speaker 3 (08:15):
Yes, what's got some mineral Barrytown? What were they going
to mind there?

Speaker 5 (08:20):
Apparently some all sorts of I'm not totally clued up
on the extraction of what minerals, but apparently it's it's
supposed to be very important two making money for obviously
that mining company that's from Australia, and it's just the

(08:41):
sort of affecting some of the US residents there that
have invested. We're signing to invest in Graymouth on the
West Coast, buying property there.

Speaker 3 (08:51):
And let's cut to the chase. You bought a properly
in Berrytown to live or as an investment.

Speaker 5 (08:57):
To live, So basically when we retire there and yeah,
so now this is all happening and we kind of
like concerned and and I've got neighbors have done the
same thing, or a section there wants to, you know,
put a house on there and and and lived there,
retire there and enjoy the views and enjoy what gray

(09:22):
You know what everything is about Raymouse, well, the West
Coast anyway, just down.

Speaker 3 (09:27):
From you know, I'm familiar with this, but you must
have known that it was an area where it's always
being talked about with mining and Burrytown. I mean they've
been talking about marrying the mining Barrytown for years and
years and years. I went there on the hogh Land
in the seventies. They were talking about mining at then,
and I forget what it was. It was some metal
or something.

Speaker 5 (09:49):
I never saw that what these batteries they're making nowadays
for you know, for all the electric cars or a
bit of that stuff going on, and.

Speaker 3 (09:59):
There's someone in the background prompting you with what to
say because it's not really working for me because I'm
just I can just hear bits and put bits and things.
Another conversation going on.

Speaker 5 (10:09):
Someone wants to give it to me, Yeah, exactly. It's
it's just trying to find a plant for somewhere someone
can help out with the pushback on being win just
feels there's a bit of bullet going on as a
fast track of a mining process, and there's a process

(10:31):
plant that they've shifted and it's going to be right
in front of us, right in our lovely view across
to the sea, and we're just feeling, well is that fair?

Speaker 7 (10:42):
I mean?

Speaker 3 (10:43):
And with all all the have you met and have
you have you moved?

Speaker 5 (10:48):
The going to be going to be moving in the next
few years.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
And okay, you haven't built you haven't built a house
on it yet.

Speaker 8 (10:56):
No.

Speaker 3 (10:57):
Okay, it's on Cargo Is it on Cargo Road?

Speaker 5 (11:02):
No, it's on on on State Highway six going through
berry Town towards print of Tanik, which is like quite
a nice tourist part of the West Coast, which I've
been hearing. You know, it's been more and more promoted
and you know, trying to bring people in and enjoy
the coastline there.

Speaker 3 (11:21):
And can you sell your section?

Speaker 5 (11:27):
Uh, it probably would be an issue to the track
if you look at it.

Speaker 9 (11:31):
I don't know how what we've heard. I mean, we're quite.

Speaker 5 (11:35):
We're not very clued up.

Speaker 3 (11:36):
We kind of I don't know if you'd be a
good advocate because it's quite confusing listening to you. I
don't know, yeah, because I can't quite work out has
a permit been given for this company.

Speaker 5 (11:49):
They're working on it, obviously with the council and the
background and and you know with Grymouth Council or whoever
the hierarchy is trying to so yeah, go ahead, make
your money and do what you want to do. But
uses some consumptation going on a meeting happening next week, sure,

(12:10):
which we founded requently.

Speaker 3 (12:12):
Where are you living now?

Speaker 10 (12:15):
Critchis?

Speaker 3 (12:16):
Okay, why don't you stay there?

Speaker 5 (12:18):
And yes, I'm saying Christis, and I'm keen to move
on and enjoy the West Coast. We've heard over many years,
I mean the West Coast needs have been an injection
of investment and people moving there.

Speaker 3 (12:33):
Well, that's what they're doing. They're rejecting to invest to mine.
That's the investment. That's where the government's looking at.

Speaker 4 (12:40):
Me.

Speaker 3 (12:40):
I mean, I mean, to be fair, the West Coast
has always been involved with the extractive industries. That's what
they've always done. That's that was founded on coal and gold.
That's what they've always done. So you can't say you're
going to go there and you're surprised. I mean, I
have a certain sympathy for you, but you can't say
I it' expected it. Anyway, Nice to talk, nineteen past eight.
Keep your calls coming through. Eight hundred and eighty to eighty. Marcus,

(13:03):
I know Berrytown has iron sand, was what you were
thinking of? The iron grains of cod and titanium, which
is what they don't why they don't rust. So the
value would be in titanium, Marcus, it's the stuff of
night mears MOA's running rampant. Imagine the mayhem they would
cause would be no different than ostriches, would it. And
we tried ostriches, but they're no good. They got canoe
back and all the ostrich farmers went broke. So they're

(13:26):
no different, really, are they? Marginally? Twenty past eight Ilmanite
titanium dark side, that's what they find. That's what they find.
Its uses a color and food found in ice cream.
That's what's on the beach at Barrytown. The texts Marcus.
Titanium extraction also got golden uranium. Marcus. The best way
to get to sleep is listen to this guy, Marcus

(13:46):
Isto the alphabet Beckwoods, great show, always Nanna and Devenport,
some Ilmanite and mind and Barrytown. Marcus to get to sleep,
I said to you, if I can't get to sleep,
if it's silent, I need the stretch of the radio
to help with anxiety and caress catestrophizing. Cheers Gilly. Oh, catestrophized.
And that's the magnifying mind. Day when you make up
is the worse Always at night, isn't it?

Speaker 7 (14:10):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (14:10):
Yeah, and you wake up in the morning, it's no
big problem at all. What's that about, Emma psychology, Peter,
it's Marcus. Welcome, good evening, Marcus.

Speaker 11 (14:21):
Yeah, I'd have to say I put one on this
because there's saw a lot of people out there.

Speaker 3 (14:26):
You're talking about making it compulsory to accept cash.

Speaker 11 (14:31):
I reckon it is that you've got a business and.

Speaker 3 (14:34):
Pete, I'm just trying to back up for people that
have just tuned in. We're talking about okay, yeah, okay,
fair enough, knock me out.

Speaker 9 (14:40):
Yep, yep, yep.

Speaker 11 (14:42):
So basically I'm supporting what he's saying because you've got
to have cash out there, and I reckon, you should
be able to spend money, but you want us cash
or whatever, and it should be it's legal currency.

Speaker 3 (14:53):
Okay, I don't imagine that. I imagine you'd be a
Winston supporter anyway. Right, You're not switching because of this policy.

Speaker 12 (15:00):
It's got nothing to do with Winston.

Speaker 11 (15:01):
At the end of the day, I reckon that someone's
made the call and I can go on making the call.

Speaker 3 (15:05):
But you'd normally New Zealand First anyway, wouldn't you. Well,
I do, yeah, exactly. So it's preaching to the converted.
No one's going to because the sort of people that
are worried about the cash list society would be New
Zealand First photos anyway, wouldn't they.

Speaker 11 (15:21):
No, not really at all. There's still plenty of people.
You have gala days and days.

Speaker 3 (15:27):
No, I'm talking about people in the voting pop. I
haven't heard from anyone that's not a New Zealand first
photo that thinks this is a good idea. That's that's
kind of what I'm asking for.

Speaker 11 (15:37):
But even if it was in New Zealand first bought that,
whether as David Seymour, who ever ever might have thought
of that idea, I would to support it in anyway,
regardless of as once the feeders are not.

Speaker 3 (15:48):
What's your problem? What's your problem with the Gala day?
Not them not taking cash? Would that freak you out?

Speaker 11 (15:54):
Well, there's a lot of organization well getting fleece. We
don't realize that all the banks are they're making the
killing right now. All these fees are charging out to
pay well two percent whatever it is, and they're close
with the bank down, all the staff off, and they're
making quite good money.

Speaker 13 (16:08):
As we all know.

Speaker 11 (16:09):
Lots of supermarkets, and I reckon they should be they
should be pulled back and said no, this is this
is what it is. And they're still in businesses too.
If you don't want to provide for both currencies or
you wanted the business, you don't.

Speaker 3 (16:23):
So I'm glazing that what's your what's your technique to
get to sleep? Pete?

Speaker 14 (16:29):
Oh, I don't know.

Speaker 11 (16:30):
I just reckon you. If you've done a day's sort
of you know, work for whatever you is? You tired,
I don't have nothing to go to sleep.

Speaker 3 (16:42):
Your mind's not tuning over worrying about stuff at night?
Your sort? Did you just laid down? You go to
sleep pretty quickly.

Speaker 15 (16:48):
Pretty much?

Speaker 11 (16:49):
Always have you sort of normally here if you're tired,
normally if you're tired, okay, people got stress. It's probably
a bit different. But I'm not really in that. Caro good,
I don't think so well.

Speaker 3 (16:58):
You're stressed about you're stressed about the galas and stalls,
not being able to accept cash. Does that keep you
awake at night?

Speaker 16 (17:04):
Oh?

Speaker 17 (17:04):
Not at all.

Speaker 11 (17:05):
I don't care.

Speaker 6 (17:05):
I'm just forcing my good on your pete.

Speaker 10 (17:08):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (17:08):
Twenty seven past eight, Marc is still twelve state of
origin at ten o'clock tonight. That's going to be good.
It's but there hasn't been much build up because the
captain's father died, so I found that's kind of a bit.
It's kind of I mean, that's the right thing to
have a truce, but it's taken the kind of the
pump out of it. I use leven to oil on
my pulse points. Always use an eyemask, and use an
app called Calm that plays a continuous noise of a train.

(17:30):
The phone is always on flight mode when asleep. It
usually work combined with magnesium an hour before beard. Always
put your phone. Always put your phone on do not disturb.
Actually the thing for me when I wake up, I
leave the phone on do not disturb. That works well
for me. I've got to make the text as me
at five o'clock every morning. I haven't got the heart
to tell them that it wakes me every day. So yep,

(17:52):
do not disturbs my answer. Get in touch, Marcus still twelve,
I wait, one hundred and eighty ten eighty And the
mowers either. Signists aren't happy about that because it's kind
of a bit titchy that one. It's not really the
mowers coming back. There might be in forty years, but
and at the moment they're just dumb. They're just animals

(18:12):
that look a bit like the ones they're trying to
be breack Marcus. Those mowers would be a great idea
if they could genuinely engineer them to eat meat, specifically possums,
though I can perceive complications. I mean, they're not going
to release them into the bush, are they. They'll just

(18:34):
be farmed. But yeah, but if we want giant birds,
we could go and get ostriches and EMUs. That's kind
of what I don't understand. I don't know how long
it would take the ostriches and emos to graze like
the mowers did. But most animals kind of adept, don't

(18:55):
they quite quickly? Look at the cane toads get in
touched Marcus till twelve oh way e one hundred and
eighty today, and would you vote for enzied first? On
the whole cash Marcus using white noise for sleeping could
rise the risk of dementia. Haven't read that our business
gave cashaway over two years due to excessive bank cost

(19:17):
to process it, for staff security and to lower our
risk of burglary. This proposed policy will be a major
cost of business and increase money laundering. I'll read that again.
Our business gave cash away over two years ago due
to the excessive bank costs to process it. So from
a retailer point of view, cash is the most expensive

(19:39):
thing you can handle, and then your staff will steal
it or you could get robbed. Yes, to think about that.
Eight hundred and eighty Teddy and nine two nine to
text markets till twelve, looking forward to what you've got
to say here to the end, the bitter end. A
lot of numbers are out, and boy they're all high.
How what are the chances every lot of number is

(20:01):
above twenty twenty nine, thirty two, thirty eight, twenty twenty
eight and thirty six just the one prime, no no primes,
powerable twenty four bonus, twenty four powable seven. What about
those people that say that the prize is too much
on Lotto's that's crazy. A we were that last week

(20:23):
talking about that. People they oh, well they should limit
it cheapers. I think we'd understand how greed works. Anyways,
State of origin ten. I'll keep you updated with that. Oh,
eight hundred and eighty to ten eighty hulf past eight
headlines please thanks Marcus.

Speaker 18 (20:40):
The Reserve banks keeping the official cash rate unchanged at
three point two five percent is it weighs sluggish growth
and rising inflation. It follows six consecutive cuts. The Finance
Minister says households are benefiting from previous cuts and the
banks foreshadowing more cuts this year. The government's banning cryptocurrency

(21:00):
ATMs is part of changes to money laundering prevention laws.
Associate Justice Minister in acomic Key says they want to
give enforcement agencies more powers to tackle serious financial crime
without tying up legitimate businesses. And more than one hundred
thousand kiwis will benefit from changes to supplies of some
asthma Inhaler's from next month. Those using the recommended two

(21:22):
and one Inhaler can collect three months supply at once
instead of in monthly repeats. They combine anti inflammatory and
reliever medications for more tune and at nine or log
on to NZ Herald dot co dot nz.

Speaker 3 (21:35):
Thanks to the twenty nine to nine minameers Marcus, I
didn't even know there was by the way, people don't
even know there was crypto ATMs. Could someone tell me
how those would work? Would they?

Speaker 17 (21:44):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (21:44):
I can't work out how they would work? What what
would you use? Would use a card? And how do
you stop someone standing your card and taking all your crypto?
Could someone explain crypto ATMs to me? I've never seen one,
So there's that and the mining at Barrytown, and ways
to get ways you've thought invented to get to sleep,

(22:09):
because it's the modern condition is sleeplessness, isn't it? People
go on and on about that, but yes, they say,
count back from one hundred. Anything to stop yourself worrying,
anything to think of something quite different. The other thing
is inhale for four seconds, hold for four seconds, and

(22:30):
it hail slowly for eight That's quite important as well, apparently.
Or drink ice cold water, which you'll lower your overall
body temperature mimicking its natural decline before you sleep, and
getting up when you can't rest can help retrain your
brain to stop associating your bed with lying awake. These

(22:52):
are all things you can do. Here's an email from
Chris Marcus. Cash is king here in Bali, but it's
just annoying. Approximately ten dollars is one hundred thousand rupia.
I often get confused with the larger numbers business transactions.
They even make you write large figures out in words
to ensure it's correct. On the bank slips cheapers, Bob Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 17 (23:18):
Here.

Speaker 14 (23:18):
That cream, milk and cheese are going up again next week.
Why I bring this into the equation is that we
need to somehow change our systems. We can't have the
parliamentary lady's saying, oh well, I'll look into it, like
she's looked at the petrol petrol, petrol and supermarkets and
et cetera. Said the whole system we've got. I mean,

(23:40):
you can't trust any of the parliament guys. We need
to change your system completely. We need to get rid
of you know, let's say about the power Brice. So
people moan about it all the time on talkback, but
we can't do anything about it. We need a system
change so that the people have the power we can
make the changes. I mean, milk and cheese going up again,
we're now paying more.

Speaker 3 (24:01):
Where did it say it's going up again?

Speaker 14 (24:04):
It's going up next week.

Speaker 6 (24:05):
Bro. It was on the news.

Speaker 3 (24:07):
Because the International Dairy option. I think butter was down
four percent.

Speaker 14 (24:12):
Yeah, well, butters, I can assure you can look it
up wherever you want to look at it.

Speaker 17 (24:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (24:16):
No, no, no, I like the fact of coming and
strong on this. Yes, the government doesn't seem to the
government doesn't seem to the government doesn't seem to care our.

Speaker 14 (24:23):
Economy is She'll look into it. Why are we paying
more for it than what britnout.

Speaker 3 (24:29):
Its shame they didn't look into it's a show. They
didn't look into the fairies we had all ordered and
got rid of those next year. Flip.

Speaker 14 (24:37):
We need to change the complete system.

Speaker 9 (24:39):
It's just it's a rule.

Speaker 14 (24:40):
It's just ridiculous. Just because some people rates go up
twelve percent each year. Okay, there's not good driven by
the government.

Speaker 19 (24:48):
The government.

Speaker 14 (24:49):
She doesn't we're going to do something about it. What
a load of rubbish.

Speaker 3 (24:51):
Well, no, the government was going to do something about
They're going to separate the water and the government was
going to take care of the water. That's where the
council's extra money goes. It's all on the pipes. People.
People didn't want that. They kicked up bobsy Die about
three waters and now they've got huge rate increases and
they're crying into their milk. We're not crying into the milk.

Speaker 20 (25:09):
Actually, I have got it.

Speaker 14 (25:10):
I have got an idea where you go to the
petrol station, you get fifty bucks with the petrol. You
go in there and you get them twenty five dollars
and thank them and tell them they have a good day.
By two hundred dollars worth of groceries. Pay one hundred dollars,
wish them a good day and beyond your way, because
that's all. It's worse, and the prices just go up
and up and up and and nothing else goes up.
They gave the pension of the four dollar play rise
last it was a tax.

Speaker 17 (25:30):
Why a laugh?

Speaker 9 (25:32):
It's the system.

Speaker 3 (25:33):
What's broken, you, bob? What's the straw that broke the
camel's back? You're sound in a bad way.

Speaker 9 (25:38):
No, no, no, I'm fine.

Speaker 14 (25:40):
Okay, I managed quite nicely. But it's not it's not
me that I'm worried, worried about. It's all these other
people who are really struggling.

Speaker 3 (25:48):
Oh, it's people that it's when they're telling pictures to
put bubble wrap on their windows to keep them warm.

Speaker 21 (25:52):
Lettart blood.

Speaker 3 (25:54):
That's heartbreaking, that's that's not ridiculous. That's home. Some of
them fought in the war. That's tragic.

Speaker 14 (26:00):
Yeah, I suppose said those homes up to a Liverpool
standard and they say putting wrap over the bloody windows, it's.

Speaker 3 (26:05):
Liverpool, hey, bob, Just taking this becker notch because you
know how the diet over the years has changed. Do
you think people will just give up on butter.

Speaker 14 (26:22):
I've given up on butter, and as I say, I'm
not I'm not rich, but I'm not poor.

Speaker 3 (26:27):
You don't. You don't buy it anymore?

Speaker 17 (26:29):
No, I have no need to.

Speaker 14 (26:32):
Maybe in the corn season I might buy it, but
it's quite nice for the corn.

Speaker 9 (26:35):
But it's just even thing it's gone.

Speaker 3 (26:41):
You'd be one of those cholesterol lowering spreads or something, are.

Speaker 14 (26:43):
You well, whatever it is, whatever I grant from the fridge,
actually from the from the supermarket. But it's just the
whole system, Marcus. It's just everything goes up and the
parliamentary guys we wrote him say yes, we'll do this. Well,
we're no bloody better than each other. The whole system
has to change. It has to stop somewhere along the line.

Speaker 3 (27:03):
Well, I think we need to go and research and
development and evolve our economy because you know, it might
be fine now they might say we need desperately all
the money from our farmers. But yeah, I think the
world's going to change quite quickly, Bob. But nice to
talk to you. Thank you. Twenty four to nine. I
wait one hundred and eighty today hitdle midnight well that's

(27:23):
kind of frightening. Watch out for AI Spotify. There's a
band on Spotify called Velvet Sundown who blew up on Spotify,
went huge, a million monthly streams all AI. So yeah,
it's AI music, AI book, still be AI film, it'll
be AI talkback. Hosts to be careful about that cheap

(27:44):
as Chris Marcus welcome.

Speaker 15 (27:46):
Yeah we don't want AI talkback, showing.

Speaker 3 (27:49):
That for sure it might be quite good.

Speaker 15 (27:53):
Yeah, I don't know much about it, but.

Speaker 3 (27:56):
Yeah I don't either, but I'm aware of it, you know.

Speaker 15 (28:01):
Yeah, I was just bringing Marcus to say, I agree.
Why are we paying more for New Zealand made goods
like butter, bread and all that? And I'm just and
I think it might be due to the international demand
for exporting our products overseas.

Speaker 3 (28:24):
It's also the monopoly because Fontier is the only one
really that makes butter, so yeah, there's no competition to
make it cheaper. Even Steven Joyce pointed that out. I
thought in a fine column and it's crazy.

Speaker 15 (28:35):
Yeah, And I think, you know, maybe we are a
bit more expensive when it comes to buying our voume
of New zeal And goods. But I wonder what the
prices are for it overseas, if we're exporting it, how
much it is is it less or more they pay
over there that compared to us, and and and the

(28:58):
other thing is our domestic prices. We don't sell enough
here than what we do. Is they well they're overseas.

Speaker 3 (29:04):
Yeah, they just they're just going to say twenty percent
is got to be sold locally. That's a bit quite
easy to do.

Speaker 15 (29:11):
Well, actually it's ninety five percent. Just reading a little
bit about it. Of of our product is exported over
So if.

Speaker 3 (29:25):
They may have the limit it to eighty percent, we'd
have twenty percent locally. The price had drop would be
in the land of milk and honey.

Speaker 15 (29:32):
Yeah, and so I guess you know what else can
I say?

Speaker 3 (29:39):
And you know, Chris, Chris, have you given up on
using something else on your toast?

Speaker 17 (29:44):
Yeah?

Speaker 15 (29:44):
I am. Actually I'm using canary garlic butter. Okay, it's
three dollars an in nine for a little tub.

Speaker 3 (29:51):
But I mean, is it is it called canary is
actually made of? Has actually got butter in it? Is it?

Speaker 15 (29:59):
A good question? I don't I don't know if it's garlic. Well,
Gallick Brother gallic brother, I guess, but I guess it's
different than the original Gaelic spread and it's Yeah, it
is a little bit less expensive.

Speaker 3 (30:16):
But is it called canary with a sea?

Speaker 15 (30:23):
I think so. No, I think it's sea. I'm just
having a look. Yeah, it's see I think see a
in a y. I'm not to be confirmed that. I
think I was trying to container out.

Speaker 3 (30:41):
But I can't see it online. I'm looking for it,
but can't see it.

Speaker 15 (30:47):
Okay, Yeah, I definitely buy it. It's on the Supermas.

Speaker 3 (30:51):
Is it called canary squeeze?

Speaker 22 (30:54):
No?

Speaker 6 (30:54):
Okay, it's like.

Speaker 15 (30:58):
Spreadable butter, but it's garlic taste.

Speaker 3 (31:04):
I'll look into it. Chris, I'm gonna go for commercial.
But thank you. Eighteen to nine evening, John, This is
Marcus Welcome.

Speaker 17 (31:12):
Hey mate, how are you good?

Speaker 15 (31:14):
John?

Speaker 6 (31:15):
Yeah, I just wanted to.

Speaker 20 (31:16):
Explain to a few people about the price of cheese.

Speaker 3 (31:19):
Oh sure, okay.

Speaker 20 (31:21):
So, for instance, to make one kg of say Colby
or Vintage or anything like that, it actually takes about
eight liters of milk to make one kg, and you
need cream, you need salt, and in his labor and
that's why it's so expensive. It's all these expenses that
people don't think about. So, like I say, one kg

(31:42):
of a block of cheese is about eight liters of milk.

Speaker 3 (31:46):
But I think people get upset they go to Australia
on England on the holiday and the cheese there U
Zeland cheese there is cheaper.

Speaker 9 (31:52):
Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 20 (31:53):
That's probably probably because they've got more more people. We
make so much cheese that we just pump it overseas.
But yeah, I hear what they say.

Speaker 3 (32:02):
But why should it be cheaper overseas when you've got
to pay for export cost and all that. We kind
of our own cheese here.

Speaker 20 (32:08):
Well, you have to talk to the marketing board about that.
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (32:12):
A tasty cheese is eight bucks in Australia and it's
eighteen dollars twenty in New Zealand. So I know it
takes a lot of milk, but a block of cheese
and Australia is going to take as much milk, isn't it.

Speaker 20 (32:23):
Well, I guess they take our surplus and they just
sell it cheap because it's I'm nearly on the expired day.
I don't know, But.

Speaker 3 (32:29):
Then we should have our own surpers here on the
expiry date. Parxy Marcus, Welcome, but ever banging around their
Parxy are gone? Lisa Marcus, Good evening.

Speaker 23 (32:44):
Hi, I just want to discuss two things. We're talking
about the cost of living, et cetera.

Speaker 3 (32:49):
Maybe just talk. I would like to, okay, two things,
maybe just one thing.

Speaker 23 (32:54):
Okay, two things. Maybe your opinion is what are we
doing about working for families?

Speaker 3 (33:01):
What was the other topic?

Speaker 23 (33:03):
The other one is why are we still hanging out
methodone to people that have drug addicts at a chemist?

Speaker 3 (33:14):
Why have we got the methodone program?

Speaker 23 (33:19):
Well, it's not really doing anything.

Speaker 3 (33:22):
Is that the question you're asking?

Speaker 23 (33:25):
There's two two questions. I just think that two things
have gone by the buye and no one's talking about it.

Speaker 3 (33:34):
So what's your comment about methadone?

Speaker 23 (33:38):
Well, I think that you know, we're paying for people
to take methadone home to I don't know, to do
whatever they want to do with and it's not getting
anybody off the drugs.

Speaker 3 (33:52):
So it's getting people off a legal heroine. Another open. Well, yeah,
that's that's how it works. It gets people off the opoids.

Speaker 23 (34:05):
No, No, doesn't it just well it does, well, it
doesn't because all I do is take it and then
they go home that night and they take something else.
It's just bullshit, really.

Speaker 3 (34:17):
Okay, Yeah, I disagree with that, Lisa. I mean that
might be happening in some cases, but it's not the role,
and it's highly studied and it seems to be a
fairly effective kind of a thing. But have you got
a yeah, okay, Jay, And I don't think anyone's talked
about getting rid of the methadone program. It's not something
that anyone's policies. Your backparksy, yes, sorry, matters just putting

(34:41):
along on the fire. I could hear it and what
you put on your phone and you put the phone
on the fire and what happened.

Speaker 15 (34:46):
Yeah, I was cooking up some bacon and some beans
as well, like.

Speaker 3 (34:50):
That balloon BOYD song coocked me up.

Speaker 17 (34:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 19 (34:56):
Hey, when you was talking about the lotto before about
too many, I mean, the big prize is too big.
I've got a scenario for you and your listeners, and
I'll and I'll go slowly because so we can understand. So, say,
if you took a lotto ticket and on a Saturday
night they rung you up and said, hey, listen, you're

(35:16):
one of ten winners here, and there's ten million dollars
in the pot. Do you want a million or do
you want a number between one and ten? Can we
go the number out?

Speaker 15 (35:27):
You get ten.

Speaker 3 (35:27):
Million, and everyone's going to take the million, aren't they?

Speaker 6 (35:31):
Well?

Speaker 15 (35:31):
I would.

Speaker 3 (35:35):
It's quite a good thought experiment, that isn't it?

Speaker 4 (35:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (35:39):
What would you do.

Speaker 3 (35:42):
That takes a million?

Speaker 15 (35:44):
Of course it would.

Speaker 19 (35:46):
Because a lot of and pokyes are the worst things
you can gamble on. I'd think I gamble on the
horses and because that way you choose your own demise.

Speaker 3 (35:54):
Yeah, and that's a hobby too. You're out there, it's social,
you've got the horses, you're following the form. Yeah, pok
pokys are terrible things, and I don think Loto is
much better, but you know, no, they're really bad. It
seems that they've managed to sell as the dream factory
in this country and half the money doesn't count, half
the money doesn't come back, So it's kind of a Yeah, the.

Speaker 19 (36:15):
Poking machines play at eighty three percent. That gets put in.

Speaker 3 (36:20):
There's always there's always crooked cases with people involved with
poking machines. There's always there's always people that are running
have got pokey machines always go to the big House
because they've run scams on it or they've siphoned the
money away illegally. I mean, it's been a pretty sketchy industry,
hasn't it.

Speaker 19 (36:36):
Yeah, well, they're they're not much fun. The horses are
a lot of fun. You get met a lot of people, and.

Speaker 3 (36:43):
You never should have allowed to put pokeys into the country.
I don't think I know.

Speaker 19 (36:48):
But the government make money off them? There can they
ban them?

Speaker 3 (36:51):
Nice to hear from you? Thank you nin away from nine.
I've got texts and I'll get to those. Oh, someone
won ten million in tonight's Loto. There we go. Some
people that ha's too much money. Marcus watsed a documentary
called Milked about Fonter. You may have seen it was
on sca rialto Channel reinteresting. Won't be drinking cow's milk again?
Been drinking oat milk? Nice and creamy. Have a good night, brother,

(37:15):
love your show, Marcus. I think they caller might be
talking about Constantina garlic butter one ten grams three dollars
ninety at packin save methadone is better than meth and
other class A drugs. Marcus, anyone know what's happening in Chartwell? Hamilton?
The police helicopter has been circling since eight pm. Come

(37:37):
and Chartwell won't be the French rugby team, will it?
Because they're not there? Marcus, With butter been so expensive,
I've noticed that spreads have hiked their prices too. Someone
has taken advantage of the consumer in the name of profits.

(38:04):
Marcus is no five hundred gram and christ Church? Is
it too early to say Marmageddon? That's a worry, Marcus.
Bob is right. When our butter and cheese can be
purchased cheaper overseas, we don't need a minister looking into

(38:25):
what we want. A minister outrage and kicking down doors. Well,
they're out of touch. That's the trouble. Or on holiday, Marcus,
Even in absolute darkness and total signs, I still need
to disengage mentally. My strategy is to silently relate the

(38:48):
Greek alphabet, recite the Greek alphaet in my head with
eyes closed. Many times I've reached amiga and tried to
recite it and reverse and blank. I know when my
brains don't load or over compensates, when I have that
dream of falling in total abyss that it's time to readdress, readjust,
and readapt with new strategies. I've never learned the Greek alphabet.

(39:10):
Is that worth learning, Marcus, I've been making my own butter.
Pick up a bottle of reduced priced cream three eighting
in my local supermarket, wicking up ad saltan have taken
ten minutes, Marcus, Bob has bang on right. Something needs
to change. We get ripped off blind with a lot
of essential things. Corporate greeted it's fine, as jeers tony.

(39:37):
I think that's why they use the discourse, just to
spend people obsessing about your cinder, to get them off
the price of butter. That seems to be what's going
on these days anyway. Butter is half our price and
rara tong that is back here. Get everyone to boycott

(39:57):
buying butter for a week and see what happens to
the price, Marcus, I'll never probably get to see by
Once fell asleep in the middle of a center to
I having a conversation with my friend. I said, well,
the problem with that is get in touch one names Marcus,
Welcome four to nine, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty

(40:20):
State of origin at ten. Obviously, oh, I have got
an update on chart within Hamilton. Emergency services are responding
to an instant in Hamilton's chart Well tonight. A local
resident said she saw six to ten armed police and

(40:41):
four or five police cars at the scene. The resident
said a police officer told her it was a dangerous situation.
Hartol Horney Saint John's staff were also near the scene,
with one ambulance and an operation manager on standby. So yeah,
by the looks of things, that could be any number

(41:03):
of things. But that's the latest information I've got, so
sound serious. If there's any more information, I'll bring that
to you. If you want to talk after the news,
feel free to get in touch. My name is Marcus. Welcome.
Great texts and plenty of them, which is good too.

(41:24):
I've never heard people so furious about the butter. There's
a real anger out there I'm sensing, so yep, get
in touch with you want to be a part of it.
Hittil midnight. As I say, oh, eight hundred eighty to
ten eighty and nine two nine two text. If you
want to be a part of it. There's something else
you want to talk about, feel free to give me
a hollo. Call me during the news. We'll get yourself

(41:46):
sorted out. Nice change from mushrooms though, ah, not much
talk about that tonight, mind you. There's more and more
stories been revealed and we'll do what we can to
bring this to you. But yeah, give us a call
during the news if you want to talk afterwards. Oh
eight hundred eighty ten eighty and nine to nine two
to text, You're trusted.

Speaker 1 (42:09):
Light Time Talk. Marcus lash Night's call eight hundred eighty
eight News Talk said he.

Speaker 2 (42:15):
When whoa outside.

Speaker 3 (42:18):
The two Lands winner.

Speaker 2 (42:29):
Even more than maybe time, it seems I'm far one
of the where I because I am away. Bye, Sir.

Speaker 3 (42:54):
Grinning's rock them hit on midnight tonight. My name is
Marcus eight hundred and eighty eight. Tell you what's been
a far ranging first hour? Actually I'm talking about ways
to get to sleep, cutting backwards from one hundred, also
talking about the moa that's a long way from coming back.
I'll tell you that now the Lire Wolf didn't come back.
They just made a wolf that look like the Lire wolf.
So there's that al sorts of other topics to Indied First.

(43:16):
One of the Indian First Minister members of Parliament wants
to make it compulsory for any shop to accept cash
for any orders less than five hundred dollars. Retailers don't
like it because the kesh is the most expensive stuff
to process. Ahh Jason Marcus welcome.

Speaker 10 (43:37):
Oh, good evening, mister lash. How are you good?

Speaker 3 (43:39):
Thanking? Jason?

Speaker 10 (43:41):
Excellent? I'm just a little bit off topic. I can't
I'm bringing nasal radio to gosh. But bro, where did
you hone your skill for the pregnant Pause?

Speaker 3 (43:55):
It's a good question.

Speaker 10 (43:58):
Because you are a genius with it like it is. Finally,
the sea isn't. I worked out why it is. I
keep coming back to listening to you, and it is
the pregnant Pause. You are just so good after it,
and you use it so much that I should get

(44:19):
sick of it, but I don't because it's always perfectly
on point.

Speaker 3 (44:23):
Is that right?

Speaker 8 (44:24):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (44:24):
I don't listen back To be honest, I wouldn't really know.

Speaker 10 (44:27):
Well, yeah, that's how it is, right.

Speaker 3 (44:31):
It drives It drives some people crazy.

Speaker 10 (44:35):
I can imagine.

Speaker 3 (44:36):
Yeah, but the boss the bosses haven't complained, so I'm
not too.

Speaker 23 (44:41):
Well.

Speaker 24 (44:41):
Yeah, a lot of.

Speaker 10 (44:43):
People like it, but yeah, that was the biggest real
reason that.

Speaker 3 (44:48):
Right, well, Jason, you'd be the first person, you'd be
the first person even to compliment me on.

Speaker 10 (44:52):
Those Well it's well over due.

Speaker 3 (44:57):
You much, Thank you, Jason. I don't really want the
show to be about me, but there we go. Thank you, Jason,
appreciate that. Eight hundred and eighty ten eighty nine two
nine two. Actually, I think the pauses have been worse
Lately's good to turn the mic off to to sneeze
and things. So yeah, that's been sort of a story

(45:17):
of the last couple of weeks. I apologize for that. Anyway, Marcus,
could you please keep us up to date on the
State of Origin? Yes, I have. I can tell you
that Papa Lity has just arrived and taken his jacket
off and had himself a juice. That is the canber
Raiders player, Josh Papa Lite. I'll tell you what something

(45:38):
about him. Right for State of Origin and for the NRL,
they showed his debut match when he got the world
record for games for Canberra, and they showed his first match,
and I'll tell you what. The commentators in the NL
have come a long way with the pronunciation of some
of the player's surnames the PACIFICA surnames. So there we go.

(46:01):
I think it was one of the key WE players
over there assisting with that. Make sure they pronounced it right.
So there we go. Anyway, holding us key weis to
dairy rent some font terrorism. Marcus Butter was eight thirteen
this week and pook a coe, So it's gone down
for me two weeks as last. As I do not

(46:22):
bake anything but bread. Oat milk is gross to taste.
I quite like oat milk, although I imagine they put a
lot of fat in it to make it give it
that creamy taste. I think it's as good for you
as they say. Anyway, what are you using instead of butter?

(46:43):
I mean maybe margarine is the future. I know people
get freaked out by it, but if you can't tell
the difference, does it matter anyway? Johnny, it's Marcus welcome.

Speaker 8 (47:01):
Okay. Yeah, I just got busted having one of those
Oreo preteen Belgian biscuits.

Speaker 3 (47:09):
When did when did Oreos become all the rage? Ten
years ago they went around, were they.

Speaker 8 (47:15):
Yeah they were I'd never heard of them ten years ago,
you know on TV you might have heard of them.

Speaker 3 (47:23):
And they've become an obsession. Now you go to an
ice cream place and you can get aureo crumbs on
top of it. Everyone's I don't think they're that. They're
not as nice as a cameo cream, are they?

Speaker 9 (47:34):
Nah?

Speaker 3 (47:36):
I reckon they're done have americ it?

Speaker 8 (47:37):
Yeah, and they're tiny a smoky barbecue Oreo Americans.

Speaker 3 (47:42):
They're an American biscuit. The Americans aren't good at biscuits.
Are they an American biscuit? They're terrible.

Speaker 8 (47:47):
They're great at overdoing things. I mean, look at what
they do to movies.

Speaker 3 (47:52):
I reckon The New Superman's a hard watch.

Speaker 8 (47:56):
Yeah, yeah, we're not going to go for it.

Speaker 3 (47:58):
I'll go I'll go for you, Johnny, I'll tell you
about it. But they reckon. It's just a bit kind
of a bit kind of knowing.

Speaker 8 (48:05):
Yeah. I don't want to be cynical, because when you're
a little kid and you go to something like that
for the first time, it should be great. But a
lot of little kids have already seen so much on
YouTube and stuff, like we're talking about ways to get
the sleep Mate.

Speaker 3 (48:18):
I hate to say that. When Christopher Reeve came off
as horse, that kind of spirit, that kind of affected
Superman because you can never see it the same with
that Paul. He's dead now, isn't he.

Speaker 8 (48:28):
Yeah, that's right. It wasn't there long ago, I think.
I but yeah, that was quite a spiral downwards for him.

Speaker 3 (48:35):
But yeah, you do.

Speaker 8 (48:39):
You subscribe to the theory. If you listen to the
rain on the roof, you go to sleep quite easily
for some people. But when you try and replicate that
on YouTube with headphones, it's just not quite there.

Speaker 3 (48:53):
Well, their headphones will be different because you'd be aware
you've got the headphones on, wouldn't you.

Speaker 8 (48:58):
That's right, And when when you have it running on
black screen, that's not quite black. So I of how
going through my late mum's stuff, she had some tape
recordings of stuff off the radio. She had George Bllani
recordings from from a long time ago.

Speaker 17 (49:18):
You know, wow, I know that.

Speaker 3 (49:21):
Pretty there was the king of night talk for a while,
old Billani. I mean, was he was the real deal?

Speaker 7 (49:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 17 (49:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (49:29):
She went to a stage in the eighties when I
was growing up with her of listening to that, and
I was like, oh, look, wonder what this is that
I put it in the tape deck and George Bllani,
it's like, oh.

Speaker 3 (49:41):
Wow, I did read a just when you come to
I did read a long article about white noise apps, right, yeah,
And the best white noise app you can get is
one that actually has inside it a mechanical fan. So
it's a convincing sound. It's not artificial and you can't
really tell, but it's better to actually have a fan

(50:04):
that makes that noise is better than something artificial.

Speaker 8 (50:08):
Yeah, I've tried everything from trains and storms and rain
on the tent and all that sort of stuff too.
But I think I think it's quite cool that you've
you've got access to all this now. And I suppose
if you're an audio buff you can you can make
it quite a sweet. But I mean, I sort of
think it's quite a primitive thing that probably goes back

(50:29):
to the cave where we hear the rain outside and
you know, it makes us feel nice to be inside.

Speaker 3 (50:35):
Oh, you know, there's nothing like in rain and the tent, Johnny,
there are reps. Now you can design your white noise.
You have a bit of rain, with a bit of thunder,
with a bit of fan and trains going past. You
can put about ten things into it.

Speaker 8 (50:46):
Oh yeah, but a Philip Sherry in the background reading
the news.

Speaker 3 (50:49):
There you go. Good on your Johnny, Lou, Marcus, good evening.

Speaker 25 (50:54):
Oh hi Marcus, how are you?

Speaker 3 (50:56):
Yeah? Good Lou. You sound a bit distant. Are you
out doing your paper run or something?

Speaker 4 (51:00):
Oh?

Speaker 23 (51:01):
Is that better?

Speaker 3 (51:02):
Miles better? Thank you?

Speaker 25 (51:05):
Hey, I just thought I to talk to you a
little bit about butter. We were down your way at
one stage and staying at a little batch in Collar Bay.

Speaker 3 (51:19):
Oh yeah, and.

Speaker 25 (51:21):
We had a friend come in and drop off some
fresh blue cod.

Speaker 2 (51:25):
Wow.

Speaker 25 (51:26):
And we had uh well with the blue cold. They
also bought white bread.

Speaker 3 (51:33):
Wow.

Speaker 25 (51:33):
And we had cooked blue cod with probably a core
of a pound of butter. You need and you need
it and the buttered bread. And when we ate it,
all the butter was sibling down their chin. You know, beautiful.
You can't do without it.

Speaker 3 (51:55):
Yeah, I think you do it because I mean, cod's
not bad steam, but you really need to cook it
in the pen and butter.

Speaker 16 (52:01):
Yeah, you do.

Speaker 3 (52:03):
It was it was fresh and coming just from the sea.

Speaker 7 (52:05):
Had it, Yeah, it was.

Speaker 25 (52:08):
It still brings back very good memories. That the best
best blue card we've ever had.

Speaker 3 (52:13):
Yeah, well, the best, the best blue card. You ever
you'll ever have is when it's caught that day and
not step frozing.

Speaker 25 (52:21):
Absolutely definitely, So I'm all for butter on your toast
every morning.

Speaker 3 (52:28):
Nice to hear from you. Thank you, Chris, it's Marcus.
Good evening, Hi Marcus, So are you Christine going strong?
Thanks for asking good?

Speaker 7 (52:37):
Good, good?

Speaker 22 (52:38):
Hey, I just had I don't know whether I'm right
off the planet here, but just thinking about this lower
thing that Peter Jackson's involved in.

Speaker 26 (52:53):
I guess my concern.

Speaker 22 (52:56):
Has been raised because it makes me wonder if we
have future endangered or protect species, is it going to
make us less concerned about wanting.

Speaker 3 (53:12):
To preserve them because we just bring them back?

Speaker 22 (53:16):
Because yeah, because well, at the end of the day,
we can just all bring them back and so who cares.
So that's just one of the thoughts that popped into
my mind about this. So I just find it a
little bit weird. I mean, I think what they're doing
is amazing, don't get me wrong, but we had several

(53:43):
numerous endangered species from the lizards to whatever, and it
just worries me that it might just change the Yeah,
do you get what I'm saying?

Speaker 3 (54:01):
Absolutely? I clearly do people won't respect the rarative animals
because as long as you've got some matter of them,
some flesh or some bones with marrow, and then you
can bring them back ostensibly. But yeah, you know, I
think the science is a fair way off.

Speaker 22 (54:17):
Yeah, no, definitely, the science is a fair way off.
But just when you know, I listen to certain I'm
not going to mention names, politicians and things thinking about,
you know, the rights or the protection of species and things.
Now that it could just jump into a completely different

(54:40):
sort of besion, it just worries me.

Speaker 27 (54:45):
Yeah, good, good points about it.

Speaker 3 (54:48):
Thanks for making those Chris nineteen past nine, Marcus to
get to sleep, go through the alphabet naming boys, names, girls,
names or animals, flowers, countries or cities are also like
listening to the ABC Conversation podcast, they have reinteresting quite
monotone Butter and Martin six point thirty nine, only one
per customer, Trish, Ye, what's with Oreo? Is there a

(55:08):
terrible biscuit? They're small and not satisfying, and they're rubbish.
American biscuits are never good. I don't know why we
suddenly became Oreo fixated. Everywhere you go Oreo crumbs or
Oreo this or Oreo flavored ice cream or Oreo milkshakes.
The Cameo cream was a much better biscuit, dignified biscuit.

(55:32):
But yeah, I wouldn't cross the street for Oreo tiny
little things horrible anyway, twenty past nine nine and it's Marcus.
Thanks for calling him. Good evening.

Speaker 12 (55:47):
Uh yeah, Magus, Yeah, no, I just had a comment
on the Rejackson and various other parties that they've got
involved in. Whether he's main player or not, I'm not sure,
but yeah, I just think it's a great indeavor. You know,

(56:13):
you know, I was listening to it, Marcus, Marcas. No, god,
someone will lash on the so what's your last name?

Speaker 16 (56:27):
Lusk last?

Speaker 17 (56:30):
Oh god it.

Speaker 6 (56:32):
H h.

Speaker 3 (56:36):
Were listening, We listened to We listened to me earlier
on Andrew.

Speaker 12 (56:41):
No, no, no, no, I was listening to one of
the other.

Speaker 3 (56:45):
I don't move on Andrew. Sorry, I can't handle it,
Grant Marcus, good.

Speaker 15 (56:49):
Evening, No, No, it's listening.

Speaker 3 (57:02):
Here's this going for you? Here's this going for your grant? Yeah,
cheapest better than you?

Speaker 10 (57:10):
Well a grape at parade?

Speaker 3 (57:15):
What are you there? Grant student? Grant Jay we might
let him go to kick to touch.

Speaker 20 (57:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (57:36):
I think it's some sort of tech boom billionaire that's
involved with all the bringing all these bean lamb's the
guy's name, serial entrepreneur with three point seven billion dollars.
He's the guy that got involved with bringing all these
animals back, and he found a scientist that was prepared

(58:00):
to do it with him. And they've got a company called
Colossal Bioscience who's into de extinction. And they brought back
the lire wolf, but they didn't really they brought They
bred a wolf with some tweaks to some of it
DNA to give it the appearance of being a lire wolf.

(58:22):
And I don't necessarily know that they can breed either. Anyway,
do get touched? You on to talk dB Marcus, Welcome.

Speaker 9 (58:34):
Good evening. I am what do you talk about? Going
to sleep and stuff? So I was looking at white
noise because there's another noise out there you can use,
which is called pink noise.

Speaker 3 (58:48):
Has it spelled pink? The color pink?

Speaker 9 (58:50):
Okay, yeah, okay, which is what I've just been reading.
Slightly softer and rounder okay, to help you go to sleep.
And I've never heard of this one ground noise, which
is if you're at work, it's like thunderstorms, and it
helps you realign your thoughts. I guess anyway, my method,

(59:17):
which is what I rang on. I have a talking
book that I turn on when I go to sleep.
But would I want to go to sleep if I
don't use and this is not an insult if I
don't use your program.

Speaker 16 (59:35):
Yes, So if I'm going to sleep around about ten o'clock,
I'll set my timer on IHET radio for two hours and.

Speaker 9 (59:46):
Leave you yacking yep. But normally I turn on a
talking book. Now I originally and this is what I'll
get to this where I'm going in a minute. I
used to try using just normal story. Then I'd have
to go back and listen to them because I've fallen asleep.

(01:00:08):
I now use only one person. I've heard her book
probably two hundred times. I'm start to finish and I
sat for an hour, and I usually wake up sometime
in the middle of the night the silence, because I've
fallen asleep in the middle of it. So the one

(01:00:30):
I use is Susie Dent.

Speaker 3 (01:00:33):
Oh, yeah, from Ten Kids.

Speaker 17 (01:00:36):
Cats, And.

Speaker 28 (01:00:38):
She's a bit special, Yeah she's but her voice is
relatively relative, relatively melodious.

Speaker 29 (01:00:50):
That's a good word for Wednesday.

Speaker 9 (01:00:53):
And she's putting out a book that there's lots of
wed We listened to a lot of the books a
lot of the fans. But this one is a different
word every day for the whole year. And I just
back up where I left off, said it for an hour,
and I don't usually hear the end of the hour.

Speaker 3 (01:01:20):
And does she does? She bring back old words and
explain their entomology and what they mean and things like that. Okay,
so how long for each word?

Speaker 9 (01:01:30):
Some some of them are still quite modern, like respire
is the recovery from being upset, where we have the
spare so.

Speaker 6 (01:01:40):
It's that sounds like that.

Speaker 9 (01:01:45):
And so I've learned a lot of new words that
I can drop into a sentence. But just just her
just talking in the background puts it to sleep.

Speaker 3 (01:01:58):
And there's probably there's probably also a psychological association, because
she has put you to sleep so many times that
you probably your body expects to go to sleep listening
to her. Correct there'd be something Pavlovian in there or.

Speaker 9 (01:02:09):
Something absolutely because I very rarely listen hear her being
cut off at the end of the hour because my
body is now I used to when she starts talking,
it's sleep time.

Speaker 16 (01:02:27):
Yeah, it makes sense, and I think a lot of people.

Speaker 9 (01:02:31):
But you used the word earlier today about people rehashing trauma.
I can't remember what it was when they're laying down
to go to sleep, and I thought that that's this
from me. Breaks what goes on in my head because
I do a lot of design work in my head.

Speaker 29 (01:02:50):
But I'm awake.

Speaker 9 (01:02:52):
And when I put Susan on that stops because one
you know, and the Pavlovian. I think you're right, because
time going to stop thinking.

Speaker 3 (01:03:09):
Brilliant. Okay, I appreciate that, Dedebie. That's good advice. So
didn't you know she's the entomologist from eight oh ten,
cats does countdown very very good. I'll bet got a headline, Stebee,
but thanks so much for that call. I'll bring a
state of origin scores from ten it is nine to thirty.
Need of the headlines please.

Speaker 18 (01:03:27):
Thanks Marcus. The Finance Minister appears to be encouraging Jacinda
Ardurn to appear at the COVID Commission of Inquiry. Public
hearings for its second phase began in Auckland this week,
and a spokesperson says key decision makers and senior public
servants are to speak next month. Nikola Willis says it
would be a good idea if the former Prime minister
fronted up internal affairs. Says online extremist content is dominated

(01:03:51):
by identity related ideology. Almost one thousand web pages were
flagged to the Department for suspected extremist content last year,
up ten percent from twenty twenty three. It says far
right extremism was most common, but Islamic motivated content researched
and the Reserve banks keeping the official cash rate unchanged

(01:04:12):
at three point two five percent following six consecutive cuts.
For more, tune in at ten or log on to
NZ Herald dot co dot nz.

Speaker 3 (01:04:20):
She's their twenty nine away from ten o'clock. Some other
who's too. For fans of racing, Formula one, Christian Horner,
he has been sacked. He's the boss of Red Bull,
not the boss, the pit boss. I don't know what.
He's a captain, the leader, I guess you'd call him.
He's the guy that's married to one of the spice girls,
Jerry halliwell, which spy schirl was she? She wasn't poss

(01:04:46):
she wasn't sporty, she wasn't baby. Did she have a
nicknack Ginger he was married at Ginger's biss. But there
was that situation with the uh is sexting someone else.
I think that caused some sort of con tell you
what he comes across freewill on it. He seems like
a likable sort of a rooster on that program. But
he's got he's got the dun't come Monday, I can
tell you too. Also, Nelson Tasman, there's been a boiled

(01:05:08):
warter notis from Civil Defense, and I think too Jess said,
now doing has sit you will front. So I'm not
quite sure what that if Nicholas is making mischief there
or quite what that's about. But anyway, twenty eight away
from ten o'clock, my name is Marcus welcome, oh eight
hundred and eighty ten eighty. Yes, he's gone from Red Bull.
That's a pretty big story. I'll see if there's any

(01:05:29):
more information about that. Actually news I see the old
Daily fails got to say about him, because that's never
paywalled his team principal. They've won six titles. He's been

(01:05:49):
released from his operational duties. The statement is Red Bull
has released Christian Horner from his operational duties with effect
from today. He appointed Lauren Miki Sassi of Red Bull Racing.
So there we go. A likable silver. I always that
it comes across extremely well on TV, the likable Silver

(01:06:10):
Roosta twenty eight to ten jackets Marcus good Evening.

Speaker 20 (01:06:13):
Yeah, he go on magas good jack, thank you.

Speaker 30 (01:06:16):
That's the story, Alison. This is Peter Jackson thing with
the you know, bringing them all back to life and whatever.
I'll tell you what. One of the animals he's looking
at is the thylacin, which is also known as the
Tasmanian tiger. Now there's been a lot of sightings of

(01:06:39):
these animals in Tasmania and South Australia, but also up
in the Northern Queensland, which is Cape York. And I
was traveling up there with my wife and with me
going on these big long straits and then we came
to this corner. So we slowed down.

Speaker 31 (01:06:59):
My life.

Speaker 30 (01:06:59):
You know, what's that animal over there? We looked and
here was a Tasmanian tiger. The time we didn't know
what it was. We'd go, oh, it could be a
you know what's the didn't go it's too big for that,
could be a wild dog. It's got a tail on it,
about a meat along, you know, it sticks out the

(01:07:20):
back of it, and it's got stripes over the back,
over its back. And that's where the name tiger comes from.
There's manion tiger.

Speaker 3 (01:07:29):
Yes, it's not a tiger, of course, it's like a dog.

Speaker 30 (01:07:30):
I think it's a dog like creature and massive doors
open right up, you know. Anyway, this thing walked across
in front of our vehicle. We stopped and it was
about twenty meters away so we could get a clear
view of what was going on. My wife she said,

(01:07:51):
get a photo over the thing. And just previous we'd
punched and I'd pulled everything out of the back and
my camera had fallen down where the.

Speaker 31 (01:08:00):
Spear wheel was.

Speaker 30 (01:08:01):
Anyway, we finally found the camera and I got back
in the drive seat, went up to take a photo,
and of course it disappeared into the bush. So anyway,
we got to this motor camp and we're talking to
the local lady there and she said, you enjoyed the trip,
and yeah, it was great, but we saw this animal.

(01:08:21):
We described that. She said, you've just seen the Tasmanian tiger.
You know, you'd be on every naturalists you know, magazines
all over the world made if you'd got a photo
of that, and I said, really, yeah, and yeah, so
that was the story. So they're out there, mate, there's

(01:08:44):
no need to DNA them. Some of the other animals
like the dodo and the mammoth and what else is
he doing the Tasmanian tiger, But they are the sort
of the odd man out is that they're still actually
up and running, you know.

Speaker 3 (01:09:00):
Were they always on the mainland of Australia.

Speaker 30 (01:09:04):
Well they got down into Tasmania, so that's where there's
a big drive to spot them. And there's been a
lot of sightings down there, mainly on the road in
the evening, the aborige and he called them the evening
tiger where they come out at night, you know. But
here we saw this in the middle of the day
and it walked across in front of us and just

(01:09:25):
kept its eyes on us. It never took its eyes
off us. It's like very weary of what we were
and who we were, but exciting stuff. And anyway, I've
written to Peter Jackson to say, how about sponsoring us
back to a trip up there, and I'd like to.
And anyway, that was a long time ago. That was

(01:09:47):
fifteen years ago. And since then there was a guy
from Townsville, tonally unrelated to me. He went up there
and I worked out from what he said that he
was about thirty k away from where I sided mine
and this is only about two or three years ago.
And he said, no, it was definitely. Once you see

(01:10:08):
it and then you see a photo of what they
you say, yeah, that's what I saw. You know, there's
no doubting it. There's no other animal like it. It's
got this meter long tail sticking out the back and
it sticks out off the ground. You know, it's not
so it's like a kangaroo tail with the tiger markings
on its back and almost greyhounded sort of jaws at

(01:10:31):
the front that open right up wide. And so when
you see, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:10:38):
Surprising no one else has seen it or got photos
of a day.

Speaker 30 (01:10:41):
Oh there is photos of it.

Speaker 3 (01:10:43):
I can't I can't see any jack.

Speaker 30 (01:10:46):
Yeah, no, no, there's photos. Go on to Oh there's
a site there for Tasmania. But all the photos a
little bit grainy, and it could be couldn't be very
hard to distinguish.

Speaker 3 (01:11:04):
Why do you think that? Why do you think that is?

Speaker 30 (01:11:10):
You're doubting me, mate, because I.

Speaker 3 (01:11:13):
Think there'd be more people out there with get you know,
I think there'd be all if there was, if there
was a sighting, there'd be all sorts of people that
would focus on it and they'd have.

Speaker 7 (01:11:21):
Evidence that's exactly what's happening.

Speaker 3 (01:11:23):
And there's one hundred thousand dollars reward to find one
from Ted Turner.

Speaker 30 (01:11:28):
That I think that's a lot of rubbish as well,
but it's not.

Speaker 3 (01:11:32):
It's not rubbish. And then the Bulletin magazine offered one
point two five million dollars for the reward.

Speaker 30 (01:11:39):
Yeah, yeah, but anyway, I wouldn't be after money, I
just or any fame or anything else. It was just
I know what I saw there. It was right in
front of us.

Speaker 3 (01:11:51):
But you'd never seen one before, had you?

Speaker 15 (01:11:54):
Correct?

Speaker 30 (01:11:54):
And until we got got back to New Zealand, and
I said, oh, animal that was? You know, started delving
around as soon as I saw. So that's that there.

Speaker 3 (01:12:07):
You said at the campground, the woman told you what
it was. So it's not quite right when you came
back that you dealt into it.

Speaker 30 (01:12:13):
No, yeah, she said, I think you have seen a
Tasmanian tiger and I said, oh yeah, And we were
pretty ignorant to what the significance of that meant and
we just sort of left it. Then I had a
friend in Newcastle and he knew that we'd gone up

(01:12:34):
this trip to the top of the cape, and then
he said, had your trip go? I said, yeah, it
was good and I said, oh, we saw this strange
animal and straight away he said, I think you've seen
the Tasmanian tiger.

Speaker 3 (01:12:45):
Nice to talk, Jack, Thanks so much for that. Twenty
one away from ten o'clock Marcus or twelve. Christina says
she normally listens to the British shipping forecast to make
it for a sleep. Where would you hear that? I
don't know that was still a thing anyway. So more
about what's happening in Hamilton. Police have made a police

(01:13:09):
have a visible presence as they respond to a serious
firearms instant in Chartwell, Hamilton. This evening at six forty pm,
police were called to a Belmont Avenue property where a
firearm has been discharged. The alleged defender left the scene

(01:13:29):
and police, assisted by the Eagle helicopter are actively searching
for him. There's a large police presence in the air
and members of the polagogy to call Triple one if
they see any suspicious activity. Further details will be released
when we're a position to do so. That's from the head.
Who's that from. That's from Arm Inspector Jeff Penno of

(01:13:54):
the Waikato Police. So that's what's happening to their people.
A firearm has been discharged. If you've got any more information,
let me know. I don't know there we were ambulances there.
I don't know the ambulances have been required. The guy
was very differently about seeing something for a guy that's

(01:14:16):
never seen one before. Marcus. Jeff was mildly convincing until
he told us the campground identified it, but then it
was it was Beck and said it didn't ring true
to me, Marcus. My mates on the dating apps, he said,
some people, so they have had the fan on all
night to help them sleep. Best way I have found

(01:14:39):
a fall of sleep is to name countries from eight
is He closed my eyes and think of every country.
You can begin with e A A, Afghanistan, B, Belgium, C, Costa, Rica, D, Denmark,
E England, E Eritrea f f G, E f G Georgia,
h HATI I Inda Jamaica. Ken you what one you

(01:15:01):
get stuck with? K l oh it could be fun?
Which ones have none? Zimbabwe? What's why? Yemen? What's X?
If there's an X one? Any formula one? People surprised
by Christian Horner going one of Liam Lawson surprised. Yeah, Mike,

(01:15:28):
it's Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 15 (01:15:31):
Hey Marcus.

Speaker 32 (01:15:32):
Yeah, just maybe a bit of insider knowledge. Yeah, I'm
in Hamilton and I heard you're talking about the Chartwell incident.
Well I see I heard and seen the police helicopter
and I've seen it tracking south on the New Motorway

(01:15:53):
that heads towards Cambridge.

Speaker 3 (01:15:57):
Yeah, just just throw and that the police police cars
on that road as well.

Speaker 32 (01:16:03):
I couldn't hear any sirens where I'm in chris My Mom,
I didn't hear any signs. But it was definitely a
police chopper. It wasn't the west pad.

Speaker 3 (01:16:15):
So you'd to spect the person's got away not on foot,
but by a vehicle. Did they say that in the email?
Did I read out? Did I did it say whether
it was on foot or well?

Speaker 32 (01:16:25):
All I'm saying is that I've just seen the police. Yeah,
the police chopper following along the motorway. And when they
do that around here, they're following offenders.

Speaker 27 (01:16:33):
You know.

Speaker 3 (01:16:34):
Yeah, good, it did say the alleged defender left the
scene and police reactively searching from I just assumed it'd
be by foot, but you're probably right, it's probably by
vehicle most lightly.

Speaker 27 (01:16:44):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (01:16:44):
Good and tell thanks Mike fifteen to ten. If you
want to be a part of the show, getting to sleep,
the price of anyone giving up on butter? What are using?
And steered Marcus Big. If one news Horne has been
fired with immediate fact racing Bill's leader will take his place?
Might be good for Liam Lawson read Bill desperate to
keep Max very STARp And oh yeah, I tell you

(01:17:07):
what from the series I watched on that they're all
desperate to get alongside their drivers. You go diving with them,
do anything to keep them onside. Well, I'll tell you what.
That Horner is likable, had a remarkable charm on screen.
I thought got to feel for Woodville residents. I know

(01:17:28):
I had drink contemn, I had water the dead possim
in it for eleven days. They should change the name
of water Key to anything. But they'll be happy with
the new road, won't they. That's my thoughts. That wasn't
a pause, that was a cough. What's with Oreos? Who's

(01:17:50):
behind Oreo's been everywhere? I think they're a terrible biscuit.
Twelve different sorts of chemicals in them, and they taste
just like they're chemicals. There's nothing on some of the
New Zeland biscuits. I don't know why they're called oreos,

(01:18:11):
our French word for gold. But yeah, I'm not quit
sure why they're taking over. There was an Oreo boycott
in twenty fifteen because they move production to Mexico. There

(01:18:32):
you go, it's just hype. I think, oh, there are
limited edition Oreos. Let's take a break. Thirteen to ten,
hold your horses, mark with you. It's eleven away from
ten markets. Marcus good evening, Oh.

Speaker 29 (01:18:48):
Get a Marcus. Look, this is quite exciting news. In
terms of Christian Horner exiting Red Bull, Max has had
six co six driving teammates in nine years, all.

Speaker 9 (01:19:05):
Gone.

Speaker 29 (01:19:05):
I think you know I would Ricardo Pierre Gasley, Alex Albon,
Sergio Perez, Liam Lawson, Yuki Sonoda. Without verset happen and
his absolute genius, Red Bull would have been a disaster
for the last decade. And I think it's long Overdew

(01:19:32):
that they realized the problem was the fish was rotten
from the head first and that he was making very
poor reactionary decisions around driver's selection and engineering decisions and
the consequences for the car, and on a broader picture

(01:19:53):
for New Zealand. I think this has been what this
will do if we look at it as a from
a Liam point of view, and there's a couple other
Kiwis and the mixed further down a couple of younger fellas,
is that I think this solidifies Liam on the grid,
I really do. I think he's proven that he can

(01:20:13):
look after the car, can perform well in the car
when the car needs to perform well, like it did
at the Red Bulls Home Grand Prix in Belgium last
performance out. I think given how the selections may have
gone over the British Grand Prix this weekend, that could
have been quite considerably different outcome in terms of how

(01:20:35):
Liam could have come through the field.

Speaker 15 (01:20:37):
Nico Holckenberg and.

Speaker 29 (01:20:41):
On a whole it'll be interesting to see who's brought
in to replace him. Will Helmet Marco have to step
into a position of considerable responsibility for the remaining half
of the Grand Prix season, which is this is a
big move. You know they developing that twenty twenty six car.
At the moment they've obviously decided on a broader scale,

(01:21:08):
they're not seeing the return on the investment that they're
making into the Red Bull team. And who knows what.

Speaker 3 (01:21:19):
Will happen to Mark you dinner cook Mark, Yeah, there's
mate brilliant. The old micro good on You're nice to talk.
Thank you, Mark good background at eight eight gets played
twelve million pounds a year. You wouldn't need to walk
for work for long eight to twelve ten. A lot
of people talking about oreos. Oreos came in with Denny's
restaurants in the nineties, then the early two thousands, McDonald's

(01:21:41):
brought them in as well. Now they are everywhere. Well,
they're not our biscuit. We should kick them to the curve.
They're a terrible thing. Marcus eleven Hamilton was driving before
seeing fire engines. Eminence of the police at the court
of Victorian Mills Road at Peckham shave. It's not chart
although Google area police are still looking for the person.

(01:22:02):
Hamilton Road was blocked off two different texts. Someone said
oreos make a mockery of mock cream. Couldn't resist They're
both diabolical. Thanks from mac. Did do you then have
another digit biscuit to us that wasn't the cameo cream.
I'm thinking of another one that had sort of a
sandwich with not not the Shrewsbury, but I'm visualizing a

(01:22:24):
more circular biscuit. Would how would you describe the shape
of the Cameo cream like a long oval, wasn't it? Anyway,
get in touch. I'll bring you more information from Hamilton
where we know it serious firearm incidant there. The police
are looking for someone and they might have been pursued

(01:22:50):
by the police or someone said the police might have
been going to refuel as well, because they or the
chopper might have been going to refuel because the chopper
is the refilling station is down that motorway. The latest
I've got is police ascession for shooter at large after
serious for instant called to a house in Belmonte at

(01:23:10):
six point forty where a gun had been fired. Police
they had got have been circling since eight pm. So
that's an unresolved situation, still evolving, it seems. But yes,

(01:23:31):
I think you can see with ambulances and things, they're
involved in a fire just far I'm discharged. That's obviously
a fairy serious story. And someone said there is police

(01:23:51):
on the corner of Victoria and Mill Street at packinshave
that's a different area than chart Will where they're shooting
was So I don't know if that's related or unrelated,
but you might have some information about that. We've got
plenty going on top of wise tonight. That's good. Anyway,
get in touch if you want to talk. Marcus till
twelve and the other news too, from the formula, from
the sports stars, as at Christian Horner, who is the

(01:24:15):
boss at Red Bull. He's gone, don't come Monday. He
was the one that was involved in texting a co worker.
It was about a year ago. He's also married to
Ginger's spice. Was she in for the It was only

(01:24:36):
Posh that wasn't back for a reunion.

Speaker 6 (01:24:37):

Rier because I away, bye, sir.

Speaker 3 (01:25:38):
If there's any more information, I will keep you update
of what's happening in Hamilton. So the serious situation there,
A firearm has been discharged. The police are looking for
the person that's discharged the firearm. The helicopter up there.
There's also police outside Peck and Save. I can tell
you the stuff website are reporting that according to reports
on social media, a person has been shot dead. That's

(01:26:00):
what another news source is reporting from what they have
seen on social media. So I will keep you updated
that that's in chart. Well, I don't know anything about
that area. Belmont, av happened around six forty eight past ten,
laureates Marcus. Good evening, Hi.

Speaker 7 (01:26:18):
There, Marcus.

Speaker 17 (01:26:19):
Yeah, no.

Speaker 7 (01:26:22):
Going to sleep technique. I still think of painting the
side of my house with a one inch brussure with one.

Speaker 3 (01:26:35):
Do you physically do you physically do it and see
yourself doing it?

Speaker 7 (01:26:39):
Just visualize this, visualize that that. Yeah, And it's seemed
to get me off to sleep pretty easily.

Speaker 3 (01:26:47):
Have you painted your house so often that you can
remember each board we have?

Speaker 7 (01:26:52):
When I would, you'd normally only do one wall sort
of per years type thing, you know, like on the
sunny side, you know, so that gets painted sort of
twice as often as a shady side, So you know,
I've got a pretty good fix on and on one
side there's only really one set of windows, so that's
you know, a big open space, which is always quite confronting.

Speaker 3 (01:27:16):
And you do you use the one one of brush
because the others were too quick?

Speaker 1 (01:27:19):
No?

Speaker 7 (01:27:19):
No, no, I would if I was painting it an
actual fact, I use a paint aid or a larger brush.
But so I was getting off the sleep, I'd think
of a years ago one. But hey, you mentioned Frontira
just before, and that struck me. There was a news
item the other day that they're actually converting that clandy

(01:27:40):
boy uh plant to wood pellets, converting from coal to
wood pellets, and it's supposed to happen in September. Why
that was sort of timely with me. I was actually
had a showroom today. I had to look at a
wood palette fire.

Speaker 11 (01:28:01):
I had to.

Speaker 7 (01:28:02):
I think I mentioned my five mess port. I got
a buddy crack in a couple of weeks ago, and
it's got red stickered. Yeah, but supposedly, you know, the
wood pellets are all supposedly made from scrap or made
from use metro untreated radiator pines wood waste. So it
must take a hell of a lot of pellets to

(01:28:24):
fire a plant like that, well that size.

Speaker 3 (01:28:29):
It's interesting you're thinking fondly of the wood pellets because
for me, that discussion about wood pellet fires did kind
of change my thinking because unlike a log fire, you
can keep it going all night. And is it the
way you're going?

Speaker 7 (01:28:43):
Well, no, as it turns out, the I'm replacing an
insert one and the size of the smallest insert wood
pellet fire is too big for my particular insert, So
I'm probably going to go with gas now I've got
gas online anyway, So yeah, but.

Speaker 3 (01:29:03):
Can't you get rid of the chimney and have the
pellet fire freeze ending?

Speaker 7 (01:29:07):
Well, possibly it could. I was just that didn't want
to quit go to quite that extent.

Speaker 3 (01:29:12):
I'm sick of it. And that just takes too much heat.
That too much heat goes up the chimney, I reckon.

Speaker 7 (01:29:17):
Yeah, well I've got another guess one of they call
an energy saver in one of the other fireplaces, and
that blows heat around. So this is more or le.
It's just it's you know, obviously it's a guess fire.
But it's got a little logger there.

Speaker 19 (01:29:30):
It's just to keep.

Speaker 3 (01:29:31):
Yeah. I would have thought that the wood pellets that
cleaned the boy would be a different scale pealette, but
is that not right than the same size.

Speaker 7 (01:29:39):
Well, I'm not entirely sure that the guy at the
showroom who I'm into that they look at because they
actually fired up a couple of the wood pellette ones there.
There was some free standing ones and other ones, and
I've never actually seen one running. They're Italian made. They're
quite a swish type of the whole year. Yeah, yeah,
and you can hook them up to your Wi Fi
and all sorts of that's.

Speaker 3 (01:30:00):
What you wanted. No, I think all the Fontira ones
down south are going into wood pellets because I think
also too they the storm washed out the railway to
go to tinker Town to get the coal, so all
the coals coming out, none marked truck, So that's not
good for the road. So I think soon as they
get to the pellets, the better, I think.

Speaker 7 (01:30:19):
Yeah, well, the guy said he reckoned there had been
occasionally some supply issues with the pellets. He just truck
was just their unloading pellets full of pellets put their way.

Speaker 3 (01:30:30):
If I get a pellet far, I'll be stop piling
the pellets. There'll be a shedful of that. I'm not
going to run out. I'm not going to get caught out,
or I'll start making my own.

Speaker 7 (01:30:37):
But supposedly, yeah, well, if you think that with all
that splash that's available, you think sort of mobile out
it's a good ground, would be good use for it.

Speaker 3 (01:30:47):
But you think it'd be very straightforward to make with waste,
wouldn't you.

Speaker 7 (01:30:51):
Yeah, well, actually, when you look at the pellets, I
mean they look like those large snow pellets that used
to be and I think.

Speaker 3 (01:30:57):
That's where the technology came from. Then they've moved the technology.
Now they make sort of children's snacks like cheesels and
things from the same sort of extrusion machine. I think.

Speaker 7 (01:31:07):
Yeah, but no, no, I got out voted.

Speaker 3 (01:31:13):
I can't believe you're going with a fake log. That's
not good.

Speaker 7 (01:31:21):
Anyway, they thought I really wanted to put logs. Another
log fire back isn't there. But I supposely I had
a bit of a mobility issue a little while back,
and I couldn't get around that. Well I'm sort of eighty,
but I'm coming right then. But the family sort of
thought the little bit of your situation, where have you lost?

Speaker 3 (01:31:39):
Have you lost speaking rights in your family? Lauriy, that's
not good.

Speaker 7 (01:31:42):
Well I got I've got voting rights. I didn't have
the casting vote for that way.

Speaker 3 (01:31:49):
Okay, nice to hear from you anyway, Larry, thank you
at thirteen past ten if you've just joined the show.
A bit of everything tonight. Oreos who asked them to
the party. I don't know why we got talking about Oreos.
Someone mentioned Cardie. Think how they mentioned it anyway, while
we talking about Orios. Don't know where that came from,
butter or something. Anyway, get in touch. We're also talking

(01:32:09):
about techniques to get to sleep. Are also talking about
the fact that he's in first wants to make it compulsory.
For any retailers to have to accept cash up to
five hundred dollars. The retailers don't want it because kesh
is expensive. It costs them more money to process it.

(01:32:30):
And there's also of other topics that don't quite I
can't quite remember what they are at the stage, but
I look at my texts and they remind me. There's
lines free if you want to talk. Eight hundred and
eighty tenty and nine to two nine oh and Red
Ball as well. Red Bull has fired their boss, Christian Horner,
famous for one reason because he's married to a spice

(01:32:50):
girl and a likable guy on that if One show.
I've always thought I wasn't married to him, though I
didn't know the old texting and stuff, so you never know.
But anyway, they always look happy driving in the range
Rover where their berbery jackets Marcus. There is no point

(01:33:12):
buying cream filled biscuits anymore because there's no cream left
and now too small. Exactly you see one of the
great luxury biscuits, one of those like a cameo cream.
Don't know if even they're still around. Actually they were
for a long time, but the Oreo has taken over
and they're tiny packets. Head'll twelve. If you want to
be a part of the show. My name is Marcus
Good Evening. I will keep you updated with a state

(01:33:34):
of origin. There is no score. It's gone for six minutes.
There's also tennis. I think a quarter finals on at
the moment. I promise to keep you updated with that,
but got the league on. I will switch around during
the halftime. I think Sinner is in the quarter finally,

(01:33:56):
as mate got injured, so only he's not there, but
he's only there because the other guy that was ahead
by two sets was winning. Anyway, I'm not really a
tennis expert. Surprise surprise, fifteen past ten, Jason, It's Marcus
good Evening.

Speaker 27 (01:34:16):
I am Marcus. I am calling for a couple of reasons.
First of all, I believe that you definitely are the
king of the pregnant pause, Oh.

Speaker 4 (01:34:24):
Yeah, wow?

Speaker 3 (01:34:25):
What is what is pregnant? What is pregnant means? When
it comes to pregnant poise, What does the pregnant mean?

Speaker 15 (01:34:31):
It means.

Speaker 27 (01:34:34):
That moment that you leave where you're waiting for that
next word to come through?

Speaker 3 (01:34:43):
And why is it called Why is it called pregnant?
Because you're about to give birth or something. Okay, don't
you start doing it's impossible to listen to.

Speaker 27 (01:34:53):
Sorry now I call because I have I'm disguising my
voice right now. But I work for a company that
imports oreos.

Speaker 33 (01:35:02):
Oh really, yes now, And I don't have a bad
word to say about the company or Oreos themselves, but
I don't like.

Speaker 27 (01:35:14):
But what I will say is that the important into Australasia.
They're much more popular in Australia than they are in
New Zealand. And New Zealand doesn't get the same market
that Australia gets, which is quite interesting.

Speaker 3 (01:35:30):
What do you mean we don't get the same We
don't get the same product.

Speaker 27 (01:35:33):
We get some of the same products for not all
of them. But there's different flavors that they'll get in
Australia and then the States they get even more. So
it's through the.

Speaker 3 (01:35:42):
Roofs over there, because quite often it like disposal shops
like Uncle Bill, you see packets of cheap oreos and
all different flavors like that. It seems like a bit
of a dog's breakfast. There's all sorts of ones out there.

Speaker 27 (01:35:57):
I can't talk to why that might happen, because and
when I say, I worked for my used to work from.
I can't work from anymore. But let's leave that one.
And I want to quickly touched on this whole sleep thing.

Speaker 3 (01:36:08):
But they are very famous biscuit, aren't they, Like all
sorts of companies of like McDonald's got Oreo topping on shakes.
I mean, they really have taken over in the States,
haven't they. They're more than a biscuit. They're like a phenomenon.

Speaker 27 (01:36:20):
They're well marketed.

Speaker 3 (01:36:22):
Yep, okay, answer yep.

Speaker 27 (01:36:23):
Good Back when you talk about sleep a couple of
hours ago and somebody said you spoke about having an
electric fan, and yes, is over the summer, I actually
had an electric fan one of those event is just
buy me for just to keep a cool breeze on me.
And I had the best sleepover summer. Yeah, and didn't

(01:36:43):
I wasn't for white and then obviously tended off over winter.
But then I had a chest in fiction for a
couple of weeks and wasn't able to sleep very well
and put that fan on for a couple of days
and slept like a well, not like a baby obviously,
but I've been growing up baby with the chest and fiction.

Speaker 15 (01:37:00):
Yeah, they slept very well.

Speaker 3 (01:37:01):
To put it, well, that's what the science says. The
best the best white noise machines are the ones with
the extra well, white noise is generated from a mechanism
as opposed to a recording. So the best ones are
the ones that contain little fans, which are.

Speaker 27 (01:37:14):
Good, makes absolute sense.

Speaker 3 (01:37:18):
I don't know where you buy them from.

Speaker 27 (01:37:20):
Dinner's not going to go dang unfortunately.

Speaker 3 (01:37:22):
Okay, that's not a bad anyway, Jason, thank you. Eighteen
past ten. There we go. You must have had a
restraint of trade that you can't talk about the biscuits oreos. Yeah,
a lot of places that you know, you go for
an ice cream. In fact, as at an ice cream
shop on the weekend there was a family ahead of
us and they are getting oreos, crushed oreos on everything

(01:37:45):
cheapest creepers. Have you won lotto? And why would you
get crushed oreos on? Like anyway, I thought they had
some strange ice cream choices, but that was their choices.
I didn't comment. Two nil Queensland up. They've kicked a
penalty obviously from a head high tackle. They've taken ascendancy
twenty past ten here till twelve. Keep your texts coming, Marcus.

(01:38:10):
The new recipe for the Griffin Sultana paste is absolutely disgusting. Marcus.
I tried to listen to you to go to sleep,
then you talk about ways to sleep, So now I'm
a wait listening on ways to go to sleep. Very
good vaccine, Oh lines free. If you want to get
involved people, how's it all going? Mine is Marcus, welcome
here till twelve o'clock tonight. Ways to get to sleep,
making cash compulsory for amounts less than five hundred dollars,

(01:38:36):
and also Red Bull departing with Christian Horner. If there's
something different you want to talk about as well, to
feel free to come through eight hundred and eighty tenenty
and nine two nine to detect with it till twelve
o'clock tonight. And also the bringing back of the Moer,
which sounds exciting, but in reality I'll just be birds

(01:38:57):
in a panic, won't it. You may as well have
ostriches and that didn't really care. Remember the ostridge fever
of the mid nineties. Remember doing a news story on
it with a couple that imported ostridges. Apparently they're going
to be everywhere we're going to be eating the meat,
doing all sorts of things. Then in about three years time,
they all just disappeared. They got sick, they got canoe

(01:39:19):
back or something. They weren't good, They went suited. I
don't know what happened to it them, but was going
to be one of the great We're all going to
be eating ostrich but you'd never see it. I don't
know if it was some kind of promoter that conned everyone,
or I don't know what happened to those anyway. But yes,
they're just big birds, aren't they. So I presume the

(01:39:43):
maas will be the same. I don't think they'll ever
release them into the bush, or maybe they will, but
I don't know how you go about doing that. You
have to get rid of the deer first. Would they
probably predate on the same plants as that, I don't
think know if the word predator is right there?

Speaker 4 (01:40:01):
Is it right?

Speaker 3 (01:40:02):
Or is predate with animals? They would graze on the
same plants, trees up to two meters high, same as dear.
I'd think, I think dare fulfill the same role that
moa fulfill kind of, I think, I don't know if
I've made that up for a Hunter's told me that,
but anyway you will know more. Also butter, what are

(01:40:23):
people using instead of butter? Because I think probably people
are giving up on it, and I think we are
in the golden age of things that aren't butter that
tastes like butter, that's probably not a bad thing, and
the rest of the world will go the same way.
They'll give up on it, and the farmers might see
some reason bring their prices down. That's my hope anyway.

(01:40:43):
So yeah, Hun or twelve o'clock. If there's something different
you want to mention, you feel free to come through.
I've done well so far, so you might have something
entirely different. There's a bit of talk on Lotto and
methodone of all things. It's been for ever since we've
talked about methadone. But there we go. There's that also
tonight and two nil. As I've told you, Queensland over

(01:41:04):
New South Wales in the state of our that's currently
on at the moment too, just in the first half
could have an now gone on that. So that's the situation.
Keep your emails coming through if you've got them, but
lines they're free if your doing a talk on air,
as I say, oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty

(01:41:24):
and nine two nine to text a yes. Now, let
me think if there is anything internationally I need to
tell you about as I look twenty five past ten.

(01:41:45):
But I don't say why that he's been sacked from.
I don't think it's because of his texts. I think
it's probably because he's only got one drive that's any good.
But I'm not a Formula one person. I don't know
a huge amount about it. As you can probably understand,
I watched the series IF One. Then I watched a
couple of races, and no one overtook each other. I
find it quite dull. I'm not saying, oh judging you

(01:42:06):
that watch it and enjoy it, just I didn't find
it compelling. Now, Oh what else was I going to
tell you? There's something? And oh, that's right. There's a
new book about Trump and they have got sign language

(01:42:30):
experts to work out what Trump was saying to Obama
when they last together. I think that was at Carter's funeral,
and they looked the most amusement with each other. And
what Trump was doing is trying to persuade Barack Obama
to come and play golf. For one of his fifteen
golf courses. And I don't know if Obama was laughing

(01:42:52):
it was a ridiculous idea or just I don't quite
know what was going on there, but anyway, there's been
much conjecture about that. Get in touch. My name is
Marcus welcome head on midnight eight hundred and eighty today
back in a bit, just an update with the state
of origin. Queensland are the first team to score mistackle
from Lomac. So they have scored and six nil. I

(01:43:15):
guess it is at the stage to kick to come,
but it's right on the sides where they'll kicked out.
I'm not entirely sure about that, but they and that's
about twenty minutes into the games. That's what's happened there.
Shubaski great pass of mom he's on debut out to
the wing Coats was the scorers Avier Coats situation. So
six nil Queensland over New South Wales. A couple of

(01:43:37):
stray passes from New South Wales. Lou I not having
a good game. Not quite sure what's going on there.
A couple of times have been on the other border.
He's misjudged his pass, so anyway, you. We are talking
about all sorts of stuff. You want to join the discussion.
Eight hundred and eighty eighty. You might have said, were
intel about what's happening in Hamilton? If the helicopter is
still in the sky, the police are still around, Marcus,

(01:43:59):
just in door dash systems has crashed, causing total chaos.
Deliveries can't be made and orders can't be completed. Preciate
that leak as a door dash is down. It's all
happening tonight half past ten. Then their headlines. Please thank you, Marcus.

Speaker 18 (01:44:14):
Six hundred. Tasman job seekers have the opportunity to help
clean up flood damage in the Upper South Island. The
governments activated a beneficiary task force in Tasman and Marlborough.
Ministry of Social Development Regional Commissioner Craig Churchill sees they're
targeting jobs job seekers closest to the area. Two supermarkets
in Auckland and Hamilton have admitted to unfair trading. The

(01:44:36):
Commerce Commission filed criminal charges against the Mill Street and
Silverdale Packensaves in December, and weight Watchers is shaking things
up as it navigates its rebound from bankruptcy by taking
on the change, weight loss and fitness company is shifting
its focus to helping women transition into menopause. It's part
of its growth strategy. For more, tune in at eleven

(01:44:59):
or go to NZ Herald dot co dot nz chas.

Speaker 3 (01:45:01):
Needed twenty nine to eleven lines there free if you
want to come through and join the frey Tonight people
door dash crashed. We are talking ostriches because are they
going to be much different than MOA's Really? I presume
they just went their own way evolutionary three or four
thousand years ago. They're probably quite similar because that's what
they'll used to bring back the ostriche the mower. They'll

(01:45:24):
just get a bird that's similar and make some changes
to it. A lot of texts about Oreos. First port
Oreo Biscuits in Austria and Austria ninete eighty six decent
sized packet with decent sized biscuits. Rey like them, so
can you buy them now? In New Zealand? Yes you can.
They're everywhere, but smaller packets. Marcus Oreos with ice cream

(01:45:45):
is quite popular McDonald's. They also do eminems and ice cream.
Thank you, there we go, Marcus. I'm visiting America and
went to the fair last night, and they had deep
froned oreos. I did not try them sound disgusting. I
saw some ostriches was out in Westport when I was
there at the start of May. How much would you
pay for an ostriche? It would be a bad thing

(01:46:07):
to graze, actually, and the thought of ostriches, Marcus, I
make all my cakes with oil, and my friend beats
cream to make butter. I do without butter under cheese
and spread natural thick yogurt on toast with maple syrupades
all over yam. Marcus thosted you to get to sleep.
It works very quickly. I think it's your long pauses

(01:46:27):
here on midnight Minamus Marcus got even lines there free
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty. If there's something else
you want to talk about, it's good for topics, but
mainly it's about cash, mowers and sleep and formula one
and oreos. Already there's too many topics. That's five. But

(01:46:48):
what we're not talking about is the mushroom woman, which
is freeing. Of course, she hasn't been sentenced yet, and
what seems to be happening, I wasn't quite sure what
prison she was at She was at the women's prison
in Melbourne, but they're taking her back and forward to
the police station near the court as you spend a
week there and going back to the big prison for

(01:47:08):
the weekends. That's why I was confused. I couldn't quite
work out because some of the stories seem contradictory. But
that's the situation there. Any who be in touch, you
want to be a part of the show, My name
is Marcus. Welcome, you've got any other break and use
anything as you do want to talk about good We're
up against state of origin, so I look forward to

(01:47:30):
what you've got to say about that or anything else.
And you've got the updates about what's happening in Hamilton.
That would be good to hear from you. So as
I say, eight hundred and eighty and nine nine to text,
but yeah, get in touch and eight nol queens like

(01:47:53):
the conversion was successful, Queensland over New South Wales converted
try and a penalty New South Wales don't look quite
right now there's more information from the situation in Hamilton.
Police are looking for a shooter at large after a

(01:48:15):
serious firearms incident. The alleged defender left the scene and
they are searching for them with the assistant to the
police helicopter. Police would not confirm if there had been
any injuries or death. Saint John said it responded with
one rapid response during one operations manager, but both had
left the scene. It would not provide information on injuries.

(01:48:38):
There are six to ten armed police and forty five
police cars at the corner of Comery's Road and Belmont Road,
so there's no real more information there apart from the
comment from the Saint John's which is telling I received
referring things to the police. So that's a situation. I've

(01:48:58):
got for you to oh eight hundred and eighty Teddy
if there's something else you want to talk about tonight
and nine nine two detect also about ways to get
to sleep good evening. Marcus, I don't think we're a
nation as a nation, we are ready for MOA's. I'm
surprised Peter Jackson backs it. Why wouldn't we bringing back
the beautiful Who are you a bird? Exactly? Well, what's

(01:49:23):
the one in the south ise they're always looking for
us at the corcuckle. I think that's the one with
the beautiful, the beautiful cry or bird song. Anyway, twenty
four away from eleven o'clock hittl but not looking forward
to what you've got to say. It is twenty three
away from eleven people, get in touch if you want
to talk Marcus. I believe they're trying to bring back

(01:49:44):
the Hearst Eagle. That would be fascinating. Meanwhile, the dire
wolves are growing and growing. I'm not quite sure if
the dire wolves can breed. But they're not really dire wolves,
as the experts keept telling us. They are standard wolves
who've made some tweaks of the genetic material to make
them look more like dire wolves. But they're a copy,

(01:50:12):
but they probably have got Ultimately they'll have the technology
right to change the whole DNA back. I'm not fully
sure about that. Anyway, lines are free if you want
to come through. It's twenty two away from eleven Onne
of his Market's good evening and welcome, oh eight hundred
and eighty to tendy at nineteen ninety to text. Oh,
by the way, door dash is down apparently what even

(01:50:32):
apparently means? And I talk about ways to get to
sleep and what if any people thought? Okay, that's it
for butter I'm giving up on it. I just wonder
if people are doing that, they're gone to margin. I mean,
there seems to be Olivado or Marjorie. It seems to
be there's good substitutes now, which is a shame. But
I wonder if it's one of those foods that's just
kind of done its dash now that we don't you

(01:50:55):
know that it's not about butter anymore. It's just become
too expensive. We've evolved beyond it. It looks like queens
that have just scored again Tobby did, and I think
it's the score, so they're up to twelve nil. They
do look out of sorts New South Wales. Yes, they're
not really dire wolves, but they're growing twenty percent faster

(01:51:17):
than a gray wolf. Figure. They're probably online, are they?
Can you watch them on the internet. I've never heard
of dire wolves, but they're all the rage on Game
of Thrones. They're kind of big in that fantasy fantasy
literature things. It's people that know them love them, big
white things. I haven't managed to watch Game of Thrones.
It's sort of on my list, but haven't got the anyway.

(01:51:38):
Twenty to twelve, looking forward to talking to your people
of New Zealand. Oh eight hundred and eighty twenty and
nine two nine to texts some of the other stuff
you might want to have mentioned tonight. Well, Mikey Bevans
long after twelve, Um, what else can I tell you?

(01:52:02):
Let me think where you want to go there with
the Epstein files. Yeah, if you'd be a conspiracist or
you voted for the Republicans because you wanted them to
release the list, you'd be upset. Now they say there
is no list, despite the woman saying any of the
list was on her desk. And still there's a missing

(01:52:26):
minute of footage of Epstein in jail before he dies,
So yes, that doesn't gone down.

Speaker 8 (01:52:31):
Well.

Speaker 3 (01:52:31):
There's also a band called The Velvet Sundown which went
huge on Spotify. It now transpires it to AI, So
it looks like we're going to be experiencing AI literature
and AI music, which is frightening. Looks like we can't
even tell the difference. And three people infected with measles

(01:52:54):
have been to Marston Peck and Save and the Cartertan Library,
which is a real concern, particularly during school holidays. I
think America is having the worst year with measles from
about forty years with some horrific stories there also to
people getting forevery sick there with that. That's something as well. Anyway,

(01:53:17):
that's been enough for me. Oh, eight hundred and eighty
to Tenny mon Ums, Marcus Good evening and nine to
nine two to text. If you might want to mention
that you might have some more information about the mushroom
case or anything else you want to talk about tonight,
I do feel free to come through. And Christian Horner,
the boss of Red Bull and a lot of you
people love that from the older TV series, well kind

(01:53:39):
of that's on its way out. He's gone fired, lost
his job, twelve million pounds a year, and copper price
in the US have at the record high. Have to
Trump and no ounce to the fifty cent tariff on
copper and on this is the America for you. On

(01:54:00):
the back of the floods in Texas, far right conspiracy
theorists saying the weather was being controlled by the UIs
government cheapest. I watched some footage of those floods that
was just terrific. Well I didn't watch footage. I watch
footage of the families beforehand playing quite happily before the

(01:54:22):
flood had and yeah it was pretty it was a
pretty sobering. Watch Good Evening, Rayot's Marcus, Welcome evening, ray Yeah, Marcus,
good evening.

Speaker 31 (01:54:36):
Yeah, Hello, Hello, I'm phoning up about a whole industry
that has been completely destroyed around the world. This whole industry,
we used.

Speaker 23 (01:54:51):
To have it.

Speaker 31 (01:54:52):
Everybody could do it, you see, more or less, which
is darning holes in socks.

Speaker 3 (01:55:03):
Funny, it's funny. You should make it's funny. You should
mention that because I was looking for some what would
you call it, dining wool to fix a jacket the
other day and the wall was unavailable.

Speaker 31 (01:55:17):
Exactly.

Speaker 3 (01:55:18):
Okay, so yeah, okay, is that what you found as well?

Speaker 10 (01:55:22):
Yeah?

Speaker 17 (01:55:22):
Oh yeah, yeah.

Speaker 31 (01:55:23):
You can't get any wall.

Speaker 3 (01:55:24):
No, no, I had to get standard wall, which didn't
work at all. It looked lumpy and it wasn't a
seamless fix.

Speaker 17 (01:55:32):
Ah.

Speaker 31 (01:55:33):
Well, you see I have got hold of standard war
and then it's made up out of six threads. So
you then, yeah, you have to take the threads apart,
so you get a couple of threads that will turn
into a dining wall for you.

Speaker 3 (01:55:55):
Okay, but I would have thought that because I was
at the spotlight and looked everywhere there and couldn't find
any darning wool at all. I asked them. They said
they didn't have any. So, yeah, but I would have
thought you could probably get it on the end. Did
you try that?

Speaker 31 (01:56:09):
I did, And all it said was, well, you're you're
trying to buy wool, and so we're going to sell
your war.

Speaker 3 (01:56:16):
Okay, Well i'll tell you what I war. Yeah, Ray,
I'm amazed. I'm pleased you've brought it up because I
meant to mention it. We'll see if we can find
out we can get it, because I was appalled. Because
I also because in the past I've done darling and
found it to be aver satisfying endeavor. You can look
back at your work you've done. It's got quite a
good feeling because you can actually repair things almost seamlessly.

Speaker 31 (01:56:38):
Well exactly exactly. But you see, I mean darning socks.
You you have a mushroom you see well be destroyed. Yes,
you know, I mean they might, they might be over
in Australia, but they're not here.

Speaker 3 (01:56:56):
What's the point of the mushroom just to put your
hand inside the sock?

Speaker 31 (01:56:59):
The whole time is it's to hold the whole in position.

Speaker 3 (01:57:05):
Okay, you know.

Speaker 31 (01:57:07):
I mean it's essential to have a mushroom. Otherwise you
you don't, you don't have the whole correctly done. Well,
fortunately I've got No. It's not only that darning needles.

Speaker 3 (01:57:19):
Have that ishtor I found darning needles, but I imagine
you'd find a darning I think I'll see darning mushrooms
quite often at second hand shops if I'm correct.

Speaker 31 (01:57:29):
Ah, yes, you you would do. Yes, they used to
make them. You'd have three or four in a packet.

Speaker 3 (01:57:36):
Yes, and it would be easy. I reckon I could
probably make a darning mushroom. I imagine I'm not a lathe,
but you could probably modify something else. I would think, well, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I light bulb will do. I think it's a very
good point. And maybe someone might let us know where
you get darning wall, because I couldn't find anywhere. I

(01:57:57):
just was sure spotlight would be a slam dunk. I
think it was the spotlight at Queenstown.

Speaker 4 (01:58:01):
I was.

Speaker 3 (01:58:02):
I'll try the vocable one as well. Good evening, Ben
AT's Marcus, welcome and good thanks Ben.

Speaker 17 (01:58:11):
Wolves talk about wolves?

Speaker 3 (01:58:14):
L yes?

Speaker 17 (01:58:16):
Or is that w O?

Speaker 34 (01:58:18):
L F.

Speaker 17 (01:58:18):
I don't know one another, but my exmissive sister. They
they raised those Siberian huskies behind the sled, behind the bikes. Anyway,
they got one of their dogs. One there was a
big boy, and they threw them down to Queenstown and
they're going to make a movie with it. And they

(01:58:38):
got that dog and painted it up to make it
look like a wolf.

Speaker 3 (01:58:42):
Oh wow, okay, yeah, for some kid's movie.

Speaker 17 (01:58:46):
I think they spent about two weeks there in Queenstown.
It was it was a kid's movie.

Speaker 15 (01:58:52):
It was a real one.

Speaker 17 (01:58:53):
But anyway, they got this dog and dressed it up
like a wolf, and it was one of the characters
in this movie. Yes, how they dressed it up, they
painted it and yeah, they just put and it's like
paint died it, you know, like I'm sort of here, calor,
I suppose, and made it look like a wolf. And

(01:59:15):
but you know, like eyeliner sort of stuff, and it
may look like a wolf.

Speaker 6 (01:59:20):
I guess they are beautiful looking.

Speaker 3 (01:59:22):
They are beautiful looking dogs, those huskies.

Speaker 6 (01:59:25):
Ah, they are.

Speaker 17 (01:59:27):
But they had I think they've got not I don't
know about eight now that these you have like sixteen
or something like that.

Speaker 3 (01:59:35):
Really they did. They breed them.

Speaker 17 (01:59:39):
Well, yeah, they did the Yeah, I remember saying that.
I think there's sort of bounce off it now. But
they do a circuit Roundtland. They race and go. I
think it's gonna be like hotter than fifteen degrees because
they it's like when you're running down all those dogs,
they overstep and they sort of some good damage. So

(02:00:02):
you're gonna be really careful and hate it's not you
can't too hot. I'll just run anyway.

Speaker 3 (02:00:08):
And then they just keep the lower gasket.

Speaker 17 (02:00:12):
Yeah, pretty much, pretty much.

Speaker 3 (02:00:14):
Yeah, I don't think it's fear to race huskies in
New Zealand this year on the snow. It seems wrong
to me with those carts behind them.

Speaker 17 (02:00:21):
Yeah, well I've got one. Look. I know they had
a couple of years they used to do a circuit
here and now from out on the beach, and they've
got help out. I never used to raise them, and
then I just don't help outstand at particular points and
barkers or whatever. But yeah, there's there's quite a few
of them do it. They love it. They're just right
into it. You know, they've got the cam vans and.

Speaker 6 (02:00:42):
Full of dogs and.

Speaker 17 (02:00:45):
How they do it, but they do it and they
love it so but that was kind of entertained. But
I always remember that movie that they think what the
dog was in. And I can't say i've seen the movie,
but i've seen skits of it where I've seen the dog.
Now it's quite wild. They didn't make it look like
a big bed wolf.

Speaker 3 (02:01:01):
What was the movie?

Speaker 2 (02:01:01):
Ben?

Speaker 3 (02:01:02):
Do you remember?

Speaker 17 (02:01:03):
I was hoping that it can ask me that because
I don't really.

Speaker 3 (02:01:06):
Know how long ago. How long ago was it?

Speaker 17 (02:01:09):
I'm going to say it about five six years ago?

Speaker 3 (02:01:11):
Was it Pete's Dragon?

Speaker 22 (02:01:12):
No Ah?

Speaker 17 (02:01:14):
I might have been for me.

Speaker 3 (02:01:17):
Yeah, let's see movie. I can think it's been filmed recently.
Been nice to talk. Thank you for that. Leaving away
from eleven Marcus till Midnight, I thought you'd be all
on with the darning needles people, or the dar not
the needles, the darning wool. The darning mushroom was to
get the garment to specially the sock and shape, while
you mend to get the tension right. I guess that
makes sense. The wall guy sounds like the scientists from

(02:01:38):
Never Ending Story. Marcus, good evening. You get wool from
Sue's creative space, antiquity sock wool darning needles. Can you
get the mushroom use tapestry wool for darning socks? Oh,

(02:02:06):
I don't understand what your text is about. Renee or chari.
Oreos now made in Indonesia, many varieties e g. Pascal
marshmallow flavor or caramel. However, all disappointing cameo creams are
now made in Thailand, and future will Kentucky fried moa
be popular. Marcus will be raged against the oreos of

(02:02:28):
one day we find them in those assorted biscuit boxes.
Don't even tastes like a biscuit, Marcus. I always sleep
with a fan and I'm not hot, just can't sleep
without it. On Oreos are great mixed up with cream, cheese,
made into balls and dipped in chocolate. How do we
know you're not Ai? It's a really good question. How

(02:02:53):
do you know I'm not Ai? You don't know the
answer to that. It's a very good question, Marcus. The
other night and elderly woman, so we don't have to
be agist Marcus the other night of one she didn't

(02:03:14):
say her age, didn't she? She said she was eighty eight?
So I apologize you were right, Marcus. The other night
and eldly Ladies said she'd given up making scones some
scratch and brought edmund scone mix. I tried and it's perfect.
I am changed just ed water and mix. Eight dollars
will do me, chairs David, thank her now. I can't
remember her name. I think it was an L word.

(02:03:40):
So that's a brilliant text. I buy darning will AT's
smaller independent wool craft shops e g. Busy Bees in
Colbernie Wellington, Google Appleton's tapestry Wilds available from proper craft
shops I e. Ribbon, Rose and Auckland. Buy Ironline perfect

(02:04:02):
color match and darns like a dream because I'm darning
with Swan DRIs that the moth got into There's only
one that was really in a bad way. I could
match the color, but not the thread. Marcus. When I
try to go to sleep, I think of the movie

(02:04:23):
Total Recall with Arnie, the scene where the mutant tries
to read his mind and says, clear your mind, clear
your mind. I'm asleep. Why try and darn a sock
when you get a new one for only a few dollars? Oh,
these are probably woolen socks like a norsewere sock, I
would imagine, Marcus. I always think it's weirdy if to

(02:04:47):
tick a box it says I'm not a robot, as
if a robot couldn't do that exactly. And I struggle
because say witch boxes contained treffic lights, and someone's got
a tiny little bit of a traffic light in the top,
doesn't be hiding those ones exactly. I think in the
future beginning robot to do it.

Speaker 15 (02:05:07):
Now.

Speaker 3 (02:05:07):
Queensland have run away with state of origin. It's twenty
to zero. There's something not quite right with New South Wales.
Jerome luways had a bad games that Lomax has had
a bad game. Can't White work out what's gone on
with them? Something's not quite right. But Capewell's doing well.

(02:05:28):
He's the warrior that's playing for Queens and hopefully you'll
play again on Sunday for the Warriors, Marcus. I use
sock fingering wool at four ply. I dance socks for
my family. Loads of wool shops. Christ did you have
many love your show? Called me Liz a halftime in

(02:05:48):
the leg by the way, sock fingering wool at four ply.
My mother had a red plastic mushroom with a white
high hand which you can unscrew and keep your darning
needles in it. Used to buy the darning wool round
around a flat card. That was in the good old days.
Of course, Sandy, I have to go out and re

(02:06:08):
embark on that, because yeah, I tried it with just ex.
I was darning at work, but just with will and
looked terrible. It didn't work at all. Marcus, you just
proves you're not AI with a traffic light problem. Very good.
I appreciate that, Thank you. It is halftime in the

(02:06:30):
Rugby League in Sydney.

Speaker 20 (02:06:32):
Looks like.

Speaker 3 (02:06:34):
New South Wales will lose this Queens and run away
with it. Otherwise it's going to be the biggest comeback
since Lazarus. It's actually been quite a poor spectacle from
what I've seen for a free hype game. Looks very
very disappointing. Seems to have been a shooting in a Hamilton,

(02:06:57):
a serious firearm incident and a man hunt is underway.
It's in Belmont av and art Well. Happened at six
p forty and there's a large police presence in the air.
I'm not quite sure if the police helicopter is still
up there. The alleged offenda left the scene. Now they

(02:07:22):
don't make it clear on the updates if we left
the scene or she if they left the scene on
in a car or on person. So that's the information,
the only information I've got. I don't know if we're
going to get more of an update on that tonight,
but that's in Chartwell and Hamilton. So yes, there we

(02:07:44):
go here till midnight. If you want to get in touch.
Thanks for that call.

Speaker 1 (02:07:50):
For some after hours chat. Marcus lash nights on news
Talk said.

Speaker 2 (02:07:55):
B outside even more there maybe time it seems I'm

(02:08:17):
fine one rio because I away.

Speaker 12 (02:08:31):
By or so.

Speaker 3 (02:08:35):
I think the best question was tonight was people asking
how they know that I'm not AI. And that's the thing.
Before long, we'll have no idea. It's happening very very quickly.
In twenty years, most jobs will be gone for AI
with AI, and I think probably radio talkbaut radio will
have gone. I don't know whether it be much to

(02:08:58):
listen to, but yeah, I think probably the callers will
be robots, and the host will be a robot, and
the news read will be a robot, and would you listen?
Probably I don't know. It's hard to think about, isn't
It was when I thought the callers would become robots,
I thought, well, that's when it becomes weird, doesn't it.

(02:09:22):
Marcus make lemonade scones cream flower and lemonade no butter.
Very good, Hi Marcus. From Jude. Brown noise low as
the higher frequencies. Even more, it's a bit rougher than
pink noise and resembles the roar of a river, carrind
or strong wind. Common beneficentation with brown noise are relaxation

(02:09:44):
and prof focus, and of course sleeping proven better than
white noise. Cheers Jude. I'm just isn't talking about darning?
And I thought for most people it's not darning socks.
It's darning jerseys that go on the sleeves or woolen
garments that the moths have got into. But yes, I
might get a darning mushroom. We've got to find the

(02:10:07):
darning woman. We're talking about ways to go to sleep
also tonight, and one of these first members, they're bringing
in a bill to make it compulsory for shops to
take cash for purchases of less than five hundred dollars.
Which is catting up to the conspiracy voters. They'll get them,

(02:10:27):
that's what they want, and you did in first I
think that's what they've realized is the path the continued
power are those voters, the marginalized and the I'm not
gonna say paranoid, but those that you know have a
different take on the world. Let's put it that way.

(02:10:48):
Ten past eleven and the State of Origins on also
two second half is about to start Queensland twenty nel up.
Marcus Howell wants to confirm you're not AI. But yeah,
but the AI could howl. That's what I don't get.
But if you want to wear this's anything else in
this final iow'll be lovely to hear from your Manamer's
Marcus Good evening, oh, eight hundred eighty, ten eighty anything

(02:11:11):
goes for the final hour. I'm gonna fairly relaxed mood.
I hope you are too. There might be a different
topic you want to broach.

Speaker 7 (02:11:19):
Good.

Speaker 3 (02:11:22):
There has been some discussion about whether people are going
up butter altogether, because I think probably it's one of
those products that's done its dash. It's too expensive. I
don't know what other products you could say have gone
that way. That used to be a standard, and now
people don't bother with they don't know what they are.
But yeah, you might want to comment on that also,

(02:11:43):
something that was commonplace that got priced out of the market.
I can't think of any others, but you'll think of some.
But butter is certainly going that way. Oh eight hundred
eighty ten eighty and nine two nine two to text
heath or twelve. Would love to hear from you. Otherwise
I'll just nan away for the hour. Oh, let me

(02:12:08):
sit up properly getting everything. Come on, let's go. It
might be something different you've got for us to be
good to hear from you about that and AI. Although
I tell you what all the current AI you've got,
when you've got Facebook and stuff with AIS, it's all
pretty horrible. And I'm coming across more and more letters

(02:12:30):
that are obviously written by AI because it all sounds
the same. But yep, it'll get better for every equently.
The other thing I've been reading about is those Chinese
evs with a three letter name. People say those cars
are sensational. There's just now I forget what it's called.

(02:12:51):
It's called. Someone will tell you what it's called But
they've even developed a EV now that goes in the water.
It's amphibious. You heard of that, and it can rotate
three sixty degrees byd it's called So they've got a

(02:13:12):
car that goes in water. I haven't seen the pictures
of it or videos. I'm just looking at that now.
It's called the yang Wang Yu. Wait, you can go
into rivers. Why wouldn't you buy one.

Speaker 4 (02:13:29):
Anyone?

Speaker 3 (02:13:29):
I've never heard even thought of it. EV that goes swimming.
It's a great idea, though, wasn't it. I'm looking at
it now in the water. Looks pretty good. Looks like
a Defender or a range Rover. Because they do it cheap,
they're sort of banned in America. They're been tariff out
of the market because there's so much better than Tesla's.

(02:13:54):
But yeah, it goes in the water. Anyway, you might
want to mention that as well. If you're not watching
State of Origin, get in touch eight hundred and eighty tonight.
Yet floats be good to go up to Macetown and
looks brillian. Honestly, it can't get charged once you're up
there anyway. That's what that's a bit of everything for me.
Eleven past eleven o'clock. Mikey bebans along at twelve. I'd

(02:14:18):
like to talk to you tonight. People eight hundred and eighty.
I've given you enough topics. You just got to get
your act together and give me a call. Oh, indoor
Dash is down. I would have thought it's probably too
late for door dash. I thought most people be in
Beard by now, but it might not be the case.
That's when you get food delivered to you. Yeah, but

(02:14:39):
come on, Marcus, terrible price for butter. But cheese is
also super expensive here. We should have to pay such prices,
horrendus Darryl, Well, the government needs to do something about it.
Hopefully they'll be turfed out they don't sort it out, Marcus,
Can we already believe they can bring back the moa?

(02:15:00):
Can we honestly believe that they can bring back the moa?
Peter Jackson obviously thinks so, to the tune of fifteen
million dollars. Well, it's probably there's other advantages for him
putting that money towards that he might get access to
the Lyre Wolves for filming and stuff. Marcus, cheese has
been priced out of the market for most and honey.

(02:15:24):
Marcus tim Wu has the mushroom in the darning threads.
Quite a big variety regards Tracy from way Nui, Hi,
Marcus have been buying butt of thirty dollars a kilo.
We're from out of interest. I'd like to know the
answer to that is that from Costco. Like the butter

(02:15:44):
who gave that woman that won the sweepstake. I hope
she got through all of it where you can freeze
it apparently, but jump in Marcus till twelve Marcus, thanks
heaps for the idea of darning. My swanee got four
moth holes. AI wouldn't know what darning was. Lamb shanks

(02:16:04):
got priced out of family dinner. Used to have one
each five of us. We'd have to sell a kidney
in our chairs. Nicky Marcus. Three news articles about the
two to the month where they paid five billion and
they said five billion has been invested. Seems like a lot,
whatever the amount, what an absolute waste of money.

Speaker 17 (02:16:25):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (02:16:25):
I agree, although I think as they say, there's good
science coming from it because you take it down to
the DNA and they're mapping the DNA and then actually
changing aspects of it. So there might be things that
can help humans become superhuman. Oh, by the way, Superman
starts tomorrow. Since I'm chucking everything out, there is anyone

(02:16:46):
looking forward to watching Superman? The reviews are mixed. I've
very much enjoyed as a child going to see Superman
with Christopher Eves. It we must to be about nineteen
seventy nine. I don't know why I went on my own,
which is weird. I'm just try to think be today.

(02:17:09):
Don't know who it was nineteen seventy nine, but you
might want to comment on that as well. But all
the lines are free looking fort to you. It's always
a test of whether the robots, whether people know you're
robots or not. That's the great touring test, I think.
But you don't know if you know AI are robots,
or how you know I'm a robot or not. It's
one of the great questions for the ages. A lot
of people are saying they're buying butter from Morians Will

(02:17:32):
at thirteen dollars, but are you meaning a kilo or
five hundred grams. That's why I can't quite understand. But yeah,
apparently it says that Costco is selling fifteen thousand kilograms
a day. Would that be right? It's a lot. Should

(02:17:53):
be setting it up from the coast by train. We're
bringing a ship out of Graymouth. Good evening, Martin. It's Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 34 (02:18:05):
Hey Marcus, So are you doing good?

Speaker 3 (02:18:06):
Thanks Martin.

Speaker 34 (02:18:09):
I've just recently returned from overseas and where I lived
in Thailand, we could buy anchor butter. It was about
two hundred and fifty grams and the equivalent value of
about fifteen New Zealand dollars.

Speaker 3 (02:18:24):
Oh that's a lot.

Speaker 6 (02:18:25):
That's a hell of a lot.

Speaker 17 (02:18:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 34 (02:18:27):
Now, obviously you'd expect it to be much cheaper here,
but over there I just had to get by without it.
It was just too expensive and cooking for a family.
We converted to using gee, which is clarified butter, and
for a kilo of that it was much cheaper and
really quote versatile.

Speaker 3 (02:18:45):
Didn't How do they manage to make gee cheap when
it's the same from this from milk as well?

Speaker 17 (02:18:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 34 (02:18:53):
Interesting, I don't really know. Most of the brands come
from India and off New Zealand butter that's used to
make the geek, so I'm not too sure how that
works either. But Yeah, you can absolutely live your life
without butter. When it's at expenses, we buy it as

(02:19:15):
a as a treat.

Speaker 10 (02:19:19):
Some sandwiches.

Speaker 34 (02:19:19):
Otherwise, yeah, we would go to d because it was
just so much cheaper. Now I don't know what the
price of gey is over here, and I don't even
know what the butter of prices over here, to be honest,
I haven't been shopping yet.

Speaker 3 (02:19:31):
And what if that's what's going to happen if we
start pivoting, everyone starts pivoting away from butter. I wonder
if the world itself will realize I don't need butter,
and then the farmers and fonterra will be left really
left dumb with the tide haven't gone out.

Speaker 34 (02:19:44):
Perhaps perhaps yeah, some people start.

Speaker 3 (02:19:47):
Someone said, geeze Rebaird for cholesterol.

Speaker 34 (02:19:52):
Well I'm okay, and I don't look at it.

Speaker 3 (02:19:56):
I don't imagine butter's fantastic for it either.

Speaker 34 (02:20:00):
Well I don't think so either, So no, I'm not
too sure. But look, to be fair, I mean, I
wasn't using a lot of butter and the first place,
and I did certainly put it on on by sandwiches.
That was probably the main thing that I would miss
when it came to butter, and I did a bit
of baking, but i'd replace it with worth gee where possible,
and honestly, it didn't taste much different. And actually I

(02:20:21):
found you quite versatile for making other foods as well.
Whereas the other thing I guess that we had over
there was there was a lot more competition, and especially
from European brands and Japanese brands, and there was cheaper
versions of butter which were cook and bake, and they
were about half the price of the normal butter. And
I don't really know what was in them, but they

(02:20:43):
were designed for cooking and baiting. It's a bit like
the heavy cream where there's a cheaper version of a
heavy cream that you can get itself, but I don't
know why it's cheaper. But they weren't salted versions, just unsalted,
just for cooking and aking, so i'd buy them occasionally

(02:21:03):
we were cooking or baking with the kids.

Speaker 6 (02:21:05):
For all things.

Speaker 34 (02:21:06):
But yeah, maybe they'll have to be an alternative cheaper
butter coming out. Who knows absolutely what about it?

Speaker 3 (02:21:15):
Thank you for that good evening, and it's Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 35 (02:21:18):
Hello Marcus. Look, I like to talk about the butter too.
How I'm a farmer or well I'm not working on
the farmer anymore. But we have a family farm, dairy farm.
And every seven or eight years the price the more
prices go up, and all of a sudden that come
down again. You know, yes, usually last about eighteen months

(02:21:40):
and then everything is stupid again. Be happy for us,
Stop ranging about the butter price.

Speaker 3 (02:21:47):
Am, and you've got to have some compassion. People out
there are absolutely struggling. You see people in the supermarkets
and they are almost in tears as they struggle to
fill their trolley. People are really really doing it tough.
I've never heard the country more angry about the price
of four D and I get it every night. You

(02:22:08):
can't just say be compassionate for people, for goodness sake.
People People aren't. People are actually worried sick about the
price of groceries.

Speaker 35 (02:22:18):
Well that's not butter. Own butter is only one item.

Speaker 3 (02:22:22):
But it's the cheese, it's the butter, it's the milk,
it's the meat. All those cheap cuts of meat they
used to enjoy, they're all being exported because now they're
being used for sashimi or whatever. So everything that they
were used to having that. They've been brought up to
realize we live in a land where we go grass
so well, that we are blessed with a land that
we can produce great primary goods. All those primary goods

(02:22:44):
are now unaffordable for most New Zealanders. And that seems
so wrong.

Speaker 35 (02:22:50):
Yeah, that is a one point of view. See, it's
one out from our side. Growing grass is very expensive.
All our costs have gone up or no, and they
won't come down.

Speaker 3 (02:23:02):
Maybe the economy should have pivoted away to something that's
perhaps more advanced. That's probably the problem.

Speaker 35 (02:23:09):
What more advance? What do you mean by butter being advanced?

Speaker 3 (02:23:12):
Well, we're just producing milk powder. We're producing used to
produce all sorts of things. There are a low value
economy because it's cheap to export with huge with huge
environmental costs and consequences as well with rivers. You can't
swimming with all sorts of things with you know, I mean, our.

Speaker 35 (02:23:32):
Water is spotless, it's lovely, it is clean. We get
the rain, but we also have a drought.

Speaker 3 (02:23:39):
Which cost But you've got to you've got to have
some compassion end because I get people are almost in
tease with the price of goods.

Speaker 35 (02:23:46):
Well, if you can't eat butter, you just take margarine
or something else until.

Speaker 3 (02:23:52):
Why should people have to end?

Speaker 35 (02:23:55):
Why should they not? I mean, if you can't that's
what I always do. Ever, can't afford it all, make
it missile.

Speaker 3 (02:24:01):
You'd be doing right on your farm, though, and you'd
be living in the land of milk and honey.

Speaker 26 (02:24:05):
Ha ha ha ha.

Speaker 3 (02:24:07):
I mean, I mean when you look at how much
you paid for your farm and how much you'll sell
it for, that's where your great capital gains is. Right,
you'll be making a fortune, am I right?

Speaker 31 (02:24:16):
No, we're not selling it special exactly.

Speaker 3 (02:24:18):
But when you sell it, you'll make money hand over first,
won't you.

Speaker 35 (02:24:21):
I don't think I'll be living raw enough for that.

Speaker 3 (02:24:24):
Okay, I'm sorry to hear that, but cheapest creepers have
some compassion for people anyway. Twenty five past eleven, eight
hundred and eighty ten eighty and nine to nine two
to text Marcus the question you and your listens might
like to ponder if there was a song that describes
your life, what would it be? Goodness? Bullshit? The Hokatika

(02:24:45):
River is dirty from Westland milk products. Anyway, get in
touch of by the way, the score of the rugby
New South Wales the Rugby League New South Wales ammering
the triline. There we go, Bran just over not quite though,
try denied anyway, get in touch with you want to talk.
Twenty six past eleven. It is twenty eight past eleven.

(02:25:05):
New South to just scored Stephen Crichton. It's their first try.
But yeah, they've been peppering the tryline for a long time.

Speaker 27 (02:25:12):
Marie.

Speaker 3 (02:25:12):
It's Marcus, good evening, Yes, high.

Speaker 24 (02:25:16):
Marcus, just letting you know that Spotlight Stools have your
darning mushroom for a whole thirteen dollars.

Speaker 3 (02:25:22):
Oh god, is it waded or plastic?

Speaker 22 (02:25:26):
It's wooden, I believe.

Speaker 3 (02:25:27):
Oh good. That's a good thing, isn't it.

Speaker 22 (02:25:28):
Okay, Yeah, and it's called a birch b I s h.

Speaker 24 (02:25:32):
Darning mushroom might.

Speaker 3 (02:25:34):
Be made from a birch tree.

Speaker 24 (02:25:35):
Ah probably, Yeah, So I thought that would help you
out with your darling.

Speaker 3 (02:25:42):
Okay, really appreciate that, Murray, thank you. Texted through Marcus.
The farmer woman did her cause serious damage. My dairy
farmer mate. Literally don't know what to do with the money.
Pouring in one brought a one twenty grand classic car
for kicks. She's bears. I'm a pitcher of seventy five
and working part time for a bit over minimum wage,

(02:26:04):
you know, savings red in my flat. I love my
butter and keep buying it. Marcus and from the land
of Windmills. Sure needs some empathy for people who can't
afford butter. Now, tom Oh, anyway, get in touch. Good evening, Wraps,
it's Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 28 (02:26:26):
Thank you to Marcus Cutter Wraps.

Speaker 6 (02:26:30):
Hey man, Yeah, I just want to talk about the
whole butter situation, and yeah, I understand that, and the
butter prices have gone up, and I've just been listening
and no, I completely agree with you. And you know,
the outrageous prices of everything is going up at the moment,
and I kind of feel sorry for the you know,
all the families out there that don't make much income

(02:26:55):
and just to enjoy it because I grew up with butter,
butter on everything. So just see people without the luxury
of having butter. You know, definitely something going wrong there.

Speaker 3 (02:27:08):
Well, when the basics and the things were always used
to that we can produce easily and cheaply become too
expensive because they can sell them too much for overseas.
Just seems wrong.

Speaker 6 (02:27:19):
Yeah, definitely, and I completely agree with you.

Speaker 3 (02:27:22):
Actually, well, fish is the same too. Fishes unaffordable for
most people because it's all exported. It meats unaffordable because
it's all exported apart from chicken.

Speaker 6 (02:27:36):
Yeah, definitely, especially for people that don't know how to
catch fish as well.

Speaker 3 (02:27:40):
Yep yep.

Speaker 15 (02:27:43):
Yea.

Speaker 23 (02:27:44):
And not even.

Speaker 6 (02:27:46):
Queen Lands are doing an outstanding job.

Speaker 27 (02:27:50):
Who is.

Speaker 6 (02:27:53):
The Queensland Maroons.

Speaker 3 (02:27:55):
Oh yeah, they're going well, they're going really well. Yeah,
hearing your wraps. Nice to hear from your twenty nine
away from twelve A score is twenty to six Queensland
twenty New South Wales on six have to score three times.
They've only got twenty two minutes to do it. Thanks,
you had to score four times, but they look committed.

(02:28:18):
Good evening, Marry and it's Marcus.

Speaker 31 (02:28:20):
Welcome, Hello Marcus.

Speaker 26 (02:28:24):
Marcus. I'm really concerned that people really feel they only
have a healthy an. They have no healthy alternatives to butter.
Butter is high in stet, high in fats.

Speaker 22 (02:28:39):
The bad fats.

Speaker 26 (02:28:41):
Olive oil is amazing substitute.

Speaker 22 (02:28:46):
And people.

Speaker 26 (02:28:49):
From the Mediterranean have proven that that brings longevity. Olive
oil is available in a far better process than having butter.

Speaker 3 (02:29:03):
Yeah, I think the olive oil prices through the roof
to with with with climate conditions. I think that's that's
probably going to be unaffordable too soon, doesn't it. I mean,
if you look at the price of olive oil lately.

Speaker 26 (02:29:16):
Yeah, but I'd rather buy I'd rather put my money
into good, good quality olive oil, and in olivio Is
it called olivio.

Speaker 3 (02:29:29):
Oli something like that. I think d O O l
I v A d O Olivardo. I think it is,
is it?

Speaker 27 (02:29:38):
Yeah, something like that.

Speaker 26 (02:29:39):
Yeah, that's that's fine. I mean I guess people that
we have their their preferences, but in terms of health
wise and yes, in terms of health, I think that
olive olivado is by far the better choice. And as

(02:30:02):
for that lady, that and her attitude I thought was
incredibly patronizing and narrow.

Speaker 4 (02:30:13):
Sad, really yeah, I thought was sad.

Speaker 26 (02:30:15):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's all I want to just say.

Speaker 3 (02:30:18):
I agree with you, Thank you. Marion twenty seven to eleven,
twenty seven to twelve, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty.
But the price of olive oil. Olive oil and chocolate
two are the great things from global warming pretty much
becoming unaffordable. I'm just trying to look at the price.

(02:30:39):
I'm just looking at the price chart of olive oil,
the global price.

Speaker 27 (02:30:48):
Of olive oil.

Speaker 3 (02:30:49):
I can tell you this how much it's gone up
in price from twenty twenty one, from one eighty nine
dollars to eight thousand. It's got up sevenfold in price.
So she's through the roof. That and chocolate seemed to

(02:31:10):
be the things that have become increasingly unaffordable. Anyway, twenty
six away from twelve, Good evening, Eric, It's Marcus welcome.
So I just got Eric. It's Marcus welcome. Yeah, yeah,
Marcus are right, Yeah, good thanks Eric.

Speaker 4 (02:31:28):
Yeah, I've only just sort of just tuned into him.
But good subject you've got going here, you know, I've
got it with the last quarter you just had all
last couple of callers you just had. But yeah, definitely,
you know. I'm I'm fifty eight years old, and my
mom brought me up. You know, she just was basically
a solo parent. Brought me up just on one income,

(02:31:51):
and she could afford a roast and stuff like that.
It's just real sad where what these elements come to
all the world's come to where we're now talk I
never thought we'd be talking in this country in my
lifetime that people, you know, including ourselves, can't really afford
the everyday staples like cheese, butter, marmite, milo, the things

(02:32:16):
that we've always eaten and now it's becoming unaffordable for
people and.

Speaker 3 (02:32:24):
The government and the government needs to realize this rather
than obsessing about law and order and other things like that,
they need to realize that people's number one concern is
they can't afford food.

Speaker 4 (02:32:34):
Well, I mean it's it's a yeah, I mean, I
mean we've there's always porridge and things you can eat
which are cheap things. But the fact of the matter
is these are just everyday items in this When we're
starting to talk on a talk backstation that half the
country can't afford the basics of food in this country,

(02:32:56):
then something has actually gone wrong with the system.

Speaker 3 (02:32:59):
But even things that families would rely on an affordable
thing like sausages and things like that, I mean, they're
really expensive now. It's it's all those things that where
the budget things are now in affordable Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:33:10):
Well, you know, like for myself, what we don't really
read meeting anymore. I mean have a little bit on
a burger, bit of snits on a burger and a
week and that's about it. But you know, we usually
have those fish things that you buy. But we pretty cheap.
But I mean we don't starve or anything. But still,
you know, looking at a state there is is at

(02:33:32):
ten fifteen dollars apiece. It's just it's unaffordable for most people.

Speaker 31 (02:33:38):
It's ridiculous.

Speaker 4 (02:33:40):
I always thought that, you know, with this the free
market thing of what you know, we're just seeing our
stuff overseas and we have to pay what they pay,
but we're actually paying in some cases more than what
they're paying when it's been shipped to the other side
of the world, and we're paying more in our country.

Speaker 3 (02:33:54):
And it's just and it's a speakuli of boom and
farming land, dairyland that's where all the money is. You know,
that's the greatest spektive boober.

Speaker 4 (02:34:01):
Nothing against nothing against the farmers, but something's wrong with
the system itself worldwide when we've got this, this this
sort of thing happening when in a country that's full
of farming, full of you know stock. You know, we've
got a massive company that makes milk and products like that,

(02:34:24):
and here we are going we most of the illness
can't afford the stuff that's made in their own country.

Speaker 3 (02:34:30):
That's what that's what irks them when you look at that.
You know, when you look at there's so many dairy
cows and so many sheep, and you think, well, gee,
that's the land of plenty. But it's not ours. It's
all off overseas.

Speaker 15 (02:34:42):
No, that's right.

Speaker 4 (02:34:43):
So maybe there's you know, maybe there needs to be
I don't know what the answers, to be honest with them,
but I always thought the market should have been supplied
to certain amount.

Speaker 3 (02:34:54):
Yeah, well, I think you're probably need gentle government intervention
until you know, maybe they could say twenty percent of
the you know, Fonterra is kind of a monopoly before
these it say twenty percent of the product needs to
stay in the country.

Speaker 4 (02:35:07):
Yeah, well, yeah, you have to supply. It's like it's
like living in your house, right, and you've got your
family there up and then you've got a couple of
members of your family that are really greedy and they go, hey, look,
we've got all this food in our cupboard, but we
actually don't want to give it to you. We actually
want to sell it because we can actually get a
lot more for it if we sell it and starve

(02:35:29):
you lot. And that's kind of what's going on. We
have got big producers that are getting a lot of
money overseas. Meanwhile the people of the country who built
this country, they are actually now finding it unaffordable to
buy their products.

Speaker 3 (02:35:46):
And I don't think the government realized. I don't think
the government. I think the government out of touched. You
see people at the supermarkets and they just look just
so stressed with trying to do the shopping for the basics.

Speaker 27 (02:35:56):
You know.

Speaker 3 (02:35:56):
You can see the families and they're really doing it tough.

Speaker 4 (02:36:01):
Well they are, mate, are They are doing it tough.
And it's not just you know, it used to be
probably people that probably had lost their jobs or had
had a bit of misfortune in their lives. But now
it's every day people. It's working people, it's people with businesses,
it's people struggling in businesses. You know, more of people
don't get in people with businesses. A lot of people

(02:36:23):
in businesses are struggling themselves. They might be paying their staff,
but half the time they're paying themselves nothing. Yeah, you know,
so we need to look at everybody now, because it's
not just people that are unemployed or anything like that.
It's people right through society.

Speaker 3 (02:36:41):
It's the working poor.

Speaker 4 (02:36:43):
Yeah anyway, mate, I've had a good chat, so.

Speaker 3 (02:36:47):
Yeah, no, I agree with a lot of what you're saying. Eric,
thank you for that. Twenty away from twelve people to
score instead of Orige and Queensland twenty New South Wales
are six. Get in touch if you want to talk.
Eight hundred and eighty ten eighty at nineteen nine two
to text. Keep those texts coming into Marcus. How's that

(02:37:09):
for irony? I can afford but it, but it can't
have it because of my health. Have to be non
dairy Marcus. My mother believed the heart tick thing on
Olivia and I and Dad started having TIA's and then
had a stroke from eating that one molecule away from plastic,
which is a legal product of the Netherlands. Marcus, late

(02:37:37):
to your gig. But they're an awful lot of scammers out,
especially on Facebook and purported to be using companies or stores.
I've just been scammed by Smith Warnica. But my research
failed me in surprise surprise ship from China. That's quite
a common scam, now, Marcus White, did the government of

(02:38:00):
landlords two point nine billion plus fourteen point nine billion
tax cuts that run affordable? Who a lot of texts
coming through Marcus after COVID, I think it was Indonesia.
They stopped exporting coconut milk until their internal supply was

(02:38:22):
boyned again. Surely a quote of products could be held
back for local markets. Marcus, I reckon the government almost
pricing so much of us out to the point you've
got to leave in order to make us in an
exclusive place where you need x amount to live here,
and the grap the gap will grow further apart. Anyway,

(02:38:43):
get in touch, you want to talk nineteen away from twelve. Oh,
keep those calls and texts coming through, people, if you've
got something to say, how are you going? What's up?

Speaker 2 (02:38:50):
There you go?

Speaker 3 (02:38:52):
How are you going? Welcome? Good to hear from your
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty nine to nine to
the text Marcus till midnight. Get in touch if you
want to talk. The Coalition of Tony out of touch.
They give to which always so there we go. But yes,

(02:39:16):
being touching on a talk one name's Marcus Hurdle twelve.
Some discussion about sleep and some discussion about sheep and
some discussing about o. It seems like a long night
actually sixteen from midnight. If you got anything to say
before the end, to be nice to hear from you.

Speaker 27 (02:39:35):
Now.

Speaker 3 (02:39:35):
I'm just trying to see if anyone's got the information
about what's happened in Hamilton. Now there might be a
new report. I'm looking at the New Zealand the Herald.
No it's an update, it says on eleven forty eight,
but then it says I've clicked on the story. I'm
just seeing if it's updated. Residents are urging others to

(02:39:58):
stay safe, and they soured their houses, with one woman
commenting on social media just stay inside, especially on chart
Will until the spec to be apprehended. A flight tracking
website showed the helicopter's circuing above chart Will. I don't
know if that's still doing that. So there is no

(02:40:19):
more information than I can see, but I'll keep looking.
This is for the situation. It appears someone's been shot,
and it doesn't appear as though the alleged perpetrator has

(02:40:42):
been apprehended. They've made it unclear whether the perpetrator left
on foot or in a car. I suspect they've left
in a car because I think the helicopter was up there.
I don't know that for sure, but anyway, Alistair, it's

(02:41:03):
Marcus good evening.

Speaker 21 (02:41:06):
I think it's the politicians from nineteen seventy when they
decided or demand the government apartments to lower and to
make many people redundant and private companies. And then the

(02:41:28):
people who haven't had or haven't got spare money, they
are strugg me and with the combination of the food
going up and up and up, they just can't afford it.
And the politicians have kept their high salaries and their perts.

(02:41:54):
They haven't helped out regarding redundances for themselves.

Speaker 3 (02:42:03):
Do you buy a busy way? I see it, Ellie.
Did you buy butter?

Speaker 8 (02:42:09):
No?

Speaker 3 (02:42:12):
When did you stop.

Speaker 21 (02:42:15):
Or about ten years ago?

Speaker 9 (02:42:17):
I buy all of butter and olive oil for my health.

Speaker 21 (02:42:28):
I never had bacon. I never have any luxuries for
your health. See well, these other people are saying that
they don't have any luxuries when they go into the
super market. If they do, it's very little, very little,

(02:42:52):
you know, and frequently latural luturalies. I'm trying to think of.

Speaker 3 (02:42:59):
Nice to talk to you, Elisa. Thank you for the
twelve ye from.

Speaker 13 (02:43:00):
Twelve Yeah, gleating the market's hal very quick because I
know it's not the end of the program.

Speaker 3 (02:43:06):
Got a bit of time, okay, if you can, I'll win.

Speaker 20 (02:43:09):
Some vitas and the cash thing that they know they're
going to keep cash.

Speaker 24 (02:43:14):
Yep.

Speaker 13 (02:43:15):
The quick story is I bought an all.

Speaker 7 (02:43:18):
On the visa card.

Speaker 13 (02:43:19):
And the reason I brought on a visa because I
could have about four weeks to pay pay it off
before the money was two. Anyway, I went in today
to pay pay it off and I walked up to
the lady, put me card on the counter and said,
I'd like to pay this bill off please, and she
said yes, I think who is it? ID and all
the rest of it. And I put three thousand, seven
hundred and ninety two dollars on the counter and she says,

(02:43:42):
I'm sorry, I can't take that money. And I said,
you've got to take the money because I've got to
pay this today or outstore knows me for not paying
it on the on the day. And she says, well,
I'm sorry. She says, I can't take all that much money.

Speaker 7 (02:43:55):
You can't do it.

Speaker 13 (02:43:56):
So I said, well, how do I pay then? And
we had a long talk and round, round and a round,
and in the end she let me pay it in
two payments. I had to pay it pay some have
got the bank, come back in and pay the other half.
And I thought, I wonder if anybody else has come
across that.

Speaker 3 (02:44:13):
So this was cash for the lawnmower.

Speaker 13 (02:44:16):
Yeah, because I bought it on a visa card and
then I went to pay for it by cash, but
she wouldn't take the money. Okay, yeah, it's something, And
I mean say, we got around it because she said
I asked her what it was about, and she said, well,
it's it's about laundering money. And I just made a
joke and I said, well I want to pay it in.

(02:44:37):
I don't want it washing and then we.

Speaker 20 (02:44:38):
Laughed and then she.

Speaker 13 (02:44:41):
So I just thought that somebody else might have done
the same thing, but I've not come across that before.

Speaker 3 (02:44:47):
Does seem crazy, doesn't it?

Speaker 17 (02:44:50):
But it was a bit.

Speaker 3 (02:44:51):
It was why couldn't pay could you not just pay
for it with your debit card?

Speaker 17 (02:44:57):
Well?

Speaker 13 (02:44:58):
I only ever used me Well I only used me
visa card really just to pay my phone bill and
when and then she had me for I D but
the ID was out in the card because I was
playing cash and I just it was just surprising if
you wouldn't take the money.

Speaker 3 (02:45:13):
It was an expensive moa, Lou.

Speaker 13 (02:45:16):
Yeah, but it's a flash one mate, I can buoy
round the lawn.

Speaker 3 (02:45:19):
No way, is it a ride on yet to ride on?

Speaker 24 (02:45:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:45:25):
Will you tail it for spin today?

Speaker 13 (02:45:28):
Well, the lawns are a bit.

Speaker 15 (02:45:30):
Wet the older.

Speaker 20 (02:45:33):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 13 (02:45:35):
Anyway, I really enjoyed your program, mate, it's really good.

Speaker 20 (02:45:37):
I love listening to you.

Speaker 6 (02:45:38):
It's good.

Speaker 3 (02:45:39):
Nice to hear from you, Lou. Thank you. Almost time
for me to go. If you want to be last
year off the rank, feel free. Three minutes left instead
of origin twenty four to six. Kick wasn't successful, but
there we go three minutes left. So that's certainly a
great victory for the captain. Cameron Munster where there breathing
of his father this week, but Beck and Kemp and
playing extremely well. That will be the story of the match,

(02:46:01):
will be the triumph for him in the week of
highs and lows. I would have so just gen minutes
left to go on that one. I'll just check the
emails before I do chop off into the night. Know
we're right with the emails. I've covered all of those.
The other big story tonight is Christian Horner, the Red
Bull boss. He's been sacked. He was on twelve million

(02:46:24):
pounds a year and probably a job that most people
do for free. It seems that exciting, so yes, he
won't need to work again. I wouldn't imagine. I haven't
seen the full statement yet about why he's gone. There
might be something. They might be a statement by now.
I'll just have a quick look at that. I'll just

(02:46:50):
trying to look for that now. People. Laurent Mickey's is
appointed as his replacement. Christian Horner has been reached for
his operational us at Red Bull with immediate effect. He's
been in charge of the Red Bull team since it
was formed in two thousand and five. It's owned by oh,

(02:47:18):
it's own my Red Bull. It's a company from Thailand.
Is that I think that's right? So yes, there'll be
much discussion about that. Under Horner's leadership, Red Bull have
won eight drivers Championships and six Constructors Championships As one
of Formula one's most successful teams wherever. During the investigation

(02:47:39):
to Horner's behavior was understood there had been a power
struggle between Horner and the parent company Red Bull GmbH,
with Josopher Stappan, the father of the world champion Max,
openly calling for him to be removed. Horner appeared to
have weathered the storm and attended Sylveston at the weekend,

(02:48:02):
and the paddock did not expect his sacking to take place.
I don't know what it means, what it says the
path that go in the paddic for Stephan finished sixth
in Sunday's Grand Fret Silverstone, a race that would turn
out to be Horner's last in charge until his sacking,
head be the longest serving boss on the grid. Red

(02:48:24):
Bull won their first World Champion twenty ten, with the
best in Vetal taking four consective titles. Following a pair
of dominance by Mercedes. Red Bull rose again in twenty
twenty three to one twenty one of the twenty two
races staged, with Verstappen setting a new record for consecutive
ten consecutive victories, but for Stefans. Out of this season's races,
sixty nine points behind Oscar Piastre at the midway point.

(02:48:52):
So there we go. That's the big motor racing news
for tonight. Last forty seconds instead of origin. Looks like
New South Wales are about to score money. They have
been this way a lot of the time. Down they
just have got no options on attack. I don't quite
know why. Theatrell Mitchell seems good. Jerome Lewi seems to though.
Pepsi has his best best, not nor his zach Lomax.

(02:49:15):
But anyway, they might just score. Now on the s
there's Brian who just touched over to score. It'll mean
the score will be twenty four twelve or twenty four fourteen.
That's it for me. I'll return tomorrow night.

Speaker 4 (02:49:28):
People.

Speaker 3 (02:49:29):
Enjoy your Thursday, catch you tomorrow good night.
