Friday Free for hopefully a bit more bubbly as far
as a show goes. Try to steer clear of the

(00:58):
obsession with the price of oil. I had to do
a bit of a quick read around before I came
on here. I say there is now, I see there
is now or talk of ground troops from the United
States and the sort of carriers that can land on
the beach. So watch the spot. I don't know where
they'd go gosh if they win, and they'll be there forever.
But I will keep you updated on that tonight. And

(01:19):
also a little bit on the brink crew the price
of brink crude. That seems to be the latest obossion.
It's up to a dollar eate at the moment, too,
so down of it from yesterday, but it still up
a lot from that. It's been a week ago or
two weeks ago. The war has been for three weeks.

the whole day with. They don't even know what I'm
supposed to say about that. Thirteen past eight, Sydney have
a penwth for isp I tell you, Marcus, I heard,
and I'm a weather It's a Friday, which means it's
a Friday up, free for all, good day of hedge cutting.

Speaker 9 (05:32):
Today.

Speaker 3 (05:35):
The free for all topic for me is that, according
to whispers AFC Auckland Football Club. I presume that to
the amateur crowd is that they will be playing Tottenham
Hotspur at Eden Park this year after the World Cup.
They might be in that government big bang fund that
brought Robbie Williams Across. But I've heard nothing about Tottenha
Hotspur playing at Eden Park. But that's a good thing.

(05:58):
Wouldn't they be playing the Auckland Port what's that team
called Dansey Auckland FC. That might be the one I'm
thinking about actually, so, yes, that's the situation. Is that
the team that's in the Ousie League?

Speaker 9 (06:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (06:13):
Okay, yeah, that could be a thing people turn up
for that. I would have mentioned Aukland f C. Yes,
that's what I was thinking of, So aukn FC playing
Tottenham Hotspur this year. You've heard it here first. If
that's true? Who told you? That's after the World Cup?
That was in the day in the seventies a lot
of English football teams would come to New Zealand and play.

(06:34):
In fact, Tottenham Hotspur played in New Zealand. I'm thinking
it'd be about nineteen seventy nine, was it. I think
they played the All Whites, almost certain they did. Some
of you will remember that. But get in touch you
What about taking the show eight hundred and eighty today
eighty we will talk about war, then we will talk
about peace. I've been reading a lot about which is

(06:54):
not my topic. I've just about three things came up
at once. Talking about wow, talking about dogs. I've read
a lot about it today about dogs, and I've read
a lot today about the dogs that are cross breeds
or the dogs that are the doodles. I read a

(07:16):
red big because I mean, they are growing like topsy,
these dogs. Everyone wants them, and the first ones, right,
the first of these. You'll know all this because you'll
be dog people. They didn't used to exist. They've only
existed since nineteen eighty nine, these dogs. And I can
tell you how they existed, right because a guy that
bred dogs for as guide dogs wanted a guide dog

(07:39):
that for someone whose husband was alluded to the fear
of golden retrievers and labs, which normally works for guide dogs.
They bred some poodle in there and the labradoodle was born,
and from then on there's been all sorts of dogs
that have got the wool rather than the hair. I
think I've got this right, and they're growing like topsy.
So some years ago, right, most dogs were registered breeds,

(08:03):
but the number of registered breeds has dropped by sixty nine.
But then there's another article out today that the vets
are saying that these cross breed dogs. You're oodles, and
you will have them. You will tell me what sort
of different breeds you've got. You have a desher doodle
or a labradoodle, or I think there's ones that are
even got Saint Bernard and them. You'll know all these

(08:24):
things because you'll have these dogs. But there's another article
out today that's saying that these dogs have more behavioral
problems than pure breeds. I think a lot of these
dogs are on antidepressants. But anyway, I wouldn't mind just
talking through you. You might hate these breeds, you might
love these breeds. You might have a paranoid dog. You
might have a dog that's great fun, you might have

(08:44):
a dog that's got an exciting personality. But yeah, it's
all these breeds that are the noodles. Doodle doodle doodles.
I haven't got one, But I think the pure people
like it. Your cruft dog show. They are they don't
like this at all. They think it's messed with it's
messed with the pure breeds. But I think when you
go back to the pure breeds and where they all

(09:05):
came from, it was quite arbitry. It was just the
landed gentry in the nineteenth century that decided to make
some distinctions between driven breeds, but they all came from
the same domesticated pet to begin with. But it's interesting
that they reckon the ones with the poodle in them
are worse behaved, display more undesirable breeders, but behaviors than

(09:26):
breeds they derive from. So yes, if you want to
talk about that, I'm always up for the Noodle's dogs.
You got your libra doodle. You've got to tell what
I mean. You love your dog. You want to tell
me what breed it is, what rare breed your dog is.
Would love to hear from you if you want to
talk about that. Oh eight hundred and eighty. Oh by
the way, that guy that said Tottenham coming, it wasn't
a whisper, it was an article. But you get in

(09:47):
touch dogs, oodles, labradoodles, cockerdoodles. I don't know with their
names because I'm not I'm not like a dog person, Marcus.
I'm disappointing. The food trucks are going from Queenstown. A
walk around the lake and berg at the food store
was great. How badly have Queenstown got it? Just the
billionaires now poor people trying to make some money with

(10:08):
a bit of a food stool being told to the
council should be appalled by that decision was one of
the great things to do. Anyway, get in touch, Marcus
to midnight oh eight hundred and eighty said of your night,
I want to talk dogs, if you want to start
the whole discussion tonight. I've got great faith and this
is a topic. I know people are passionate about dogs,
and these breeds are a polarizer and how bad is

(10:30):
your dog? And what kind of it to do to
your dog? What if you kind of had to do
to your dog to get your dog back on track emotionally,
So get in touch. Oh wa eight hundred and eighty,
And don't see me YouTube things because I can't do
YouTube when I'm at work, because yeah, and I'm not
going to be watching long videos when I'm on the
wireless because I can't do that. Oh wait, one hundred eighty,

(10:53):
ten eighty and nineteen ninety to de text Kelly, it's Marcus.
Good evening, Hi.

Speaker 10 (10:58):
Margus, I've just got in the Karen, who you're talking about?

Speaker 11 (11:01):
The dog?

Speaker 10 (11:02):
Yeah, we've got we've got a fourteen push on.

Speaker 3 (11:08):
Tell me what that is?

Speaker 10 (11:10):
It's a Vijon poodle. He's a minuture poodle. Wow, beautiful,
isn't it the Yeah?

Speaker 3 (11:23):
Has it got wall or has it got here?

Speaker 11 (11:26):
No, he's got wall.

Speaker 3 (11:28):
Were Wow, look at you with your woolen dog.

Speaker 10 (11:31):
I know we've got one of my adult sons has allergies.

Speaker 12 (11:36):
It was perfect.

Speaker 10 (11:37):
Yeah. We only found that out last year with our
other dog that passed away last year, that he had allergies.
But our other dog was.

Speaker 3 (11:48):
Is he still at home the adult son?

Speaker 13 (11:50):
Yes?

Speaker 11 (11:50):
He is.

Speaker 14 (11:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (11:52):
Wow, shoot, looking dog a little toy like a little
toy wind up dog in it?

Speaker 15 (11:58):
Yep.

Speaker 10 (11:58):
It looks almost like our neighbors. They've got a poodle
and her daughter is a retrig doodle.

Speaker 3 (12:07):
And now I'm liking all these words. What's what's a
wit doodle?

Speaker 10 (12:13):
And say retrieve a poodle?

Speaker 3 (12:15):
Oh okay, I thought it was a poodle that was
regret a Ritra doodle? Okay? Yeah, and with your.

Speaker 16 (12:22):
Dog is called Toby.

Speaker 3 (12:25):
I didn't say that. Behavioral Is it all right?

Speaker 17 (12:27):
Is it on?

Speaker 2 (12:28):
This?

Speaker 3 (12:28):
Is it sort of performing well? Or it's going to
require years of obedience training?

Speaker 15 (12:33):
Hey's pretty good.

Speaker 10 (12:34):
We go to pup We've started puppy school.

Speaker 18 (12:37):
And we as all puppies.

Speaker 10 (12:40):
They like to bite things or you know, put their
teeth things. But we're redirecting them with that and it's
going to take time. So yeah, it's a massive learning
curve for us because we've never had a puppy before.
Our last dog was a rescue we got five.

Speaker 3 (12:56):
Wow.

Speaker 10 (12:56):
Yeah, so no, he's pretty good. I mean, age eleven weeks,
he was already sitting, so we're okay.

Speaker 3 (13:06):
Now dogs now, dogs don't bark much anymore?

Speaker 2 (13:09):
Do they?

Speaker 3 (13:09):
That the barks are trained out of them? Is that right?

Speaker 10 (13:13):
We Kobe doesn't really back. He's he's only just started
to bag. But our other dogs did back because we
got him when he was an adult. It was quite
hard to train it out of them. So I don't
mind them barking. And he doesn't back. When he's at
home on his own, he doesn't get scared or he's

(13:35):
not anxious or anything. So and he comes to work
with us and he doesn't bark a lot at all.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
Wow, what's quiet? What sort of work is he doing
with you?

Speaker 2 (13:44):
Like?

Speaker 3 (13:44):
Is it in an office?

Speaker 11 (13:46):
Yeah?

Speaker 10 (13:47):
Yeah, with an area for him that he can go outside,
So that's good.

Speaker 3 (13:51):
Do you own the company?

Speaker 8 (13:54):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (13:54):
Wow, brilliant. That's the way to do it.

Speaker 9 (13:56):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (13:57):
Twenty three past eight eight Text to text through the
problem with kavoodles, spoodles, everdoodles is sorry to say they
aren't that smart? Well, that's if any dog is thing
to say. I don't think he actually, well, can you?
A lot of sort of what you'd call racism and
humans comes down to dogs, and it's probably not based
in much Diane, it's Marcus. Good evening, Good evening, Marcus.

Speaker 6 (14:22):
I have a kvoodle and would would be.

Speaker 3 (14:24):
A cavalier spaniel.

Speaker 18 (14:27):
Yes, okay, very smart?

Speaker 14 (14:30):
Wow, oh understands well I could put lipstick on and
he knows I'm going out, you.

Speaker 3 (14:36):
Know, lipstick on the dog. I thought that was going
to go in an interesting direction. Well, okay, that is clever,
isn't it?

Speaker 7 (14:43):
No?

Speaker 5 (14:43):
No yet, exactly right.

Speaker 7 (14:45):
No, he's really smart.

Speaker 14 (14:46):
He knows a lot of words, and he's very intelligent.
I just don't get where people are coming from saying that, oh,
mixed breads aren't that smart.

Speaker 18 (14:57):
He's very smart.

Speaker 3 (14:59):
Was that important for you to get? Did you fall
in love with a dog or you wanted something with
that poodle with part poodle in it?

Speaker 5 (15:05):
I did I it.

Speaker 14 (15:06):
I wanted a smaller dog that had the smarts and
he does. He's oh yeah, he's a great companion and
well he's he's a smart ass.

Speaker 5 (15:22):
That's all.

Speaker 19 (15:22):
Like I say, he is.

Speaker 3 (15:24):
To have the wall, that's an advantage without it shedding.
Here is it?

Speaker 7 (15:28):
Absolutely?

Speaker 5 (15:29):
It is absolutely?

Speaker 3 (15:31):
What is it called a convert? I just have a
look at see what they look like. It's called a
kerverdal is.

Speaker 5 (15:34):
It it is?

Speaker 7 (15:36):
Yep, he's Akverdle.

Speaker 3 (15:37):
Did you have to take him to dog experience or
anything like that?

Speaker 20 (15:40):
I did.

Speaker 14 (15:41):
I took him to training and you know, got on
the basics and he's very well trained and loves people,
loves him to death, licks them to death. Actually, he
just loves people. He's not you know, aggressive or I've
never seen anything like that in him. He's just he

(16:02):
just loves people.

Speaker 3 (16:03):
Yeah, and not not neurotic.

Speaker 14 (16:07):
Absolutely not.

Speaker 19 (16:08):
I think it depends.

Speaker 14 (16:09):
Maybe it's on the breeder perhaps.

Speaker 3 (16:12):
Okay, nice to talk Diane, thank you. It's all about
the dogs. Fourteen four Penworth over Sydney, so the Africa
one hundred and three four eight after fifteen overs the
Highlanders is seven the Hurricanes twenty six thirty to go,
looks like the cane to be taking that one. It's

(16:33):
down to twenty to go at the stage, so it
looks like they'll get that cat Marcus, good evening, Hi cat, Hello, welcome?
What did you want to say?

Speaker 14 (17:01):
Really it's daniel, so like your beef cut.

Speaker 3 (17:07):
Okay, So so with these oodle dogs, are they easier
to you because they've got wool? And are they easier
to groom?

Speaker 23 (17:14):
And the thing is that they don't mold, so they
just get tangled.

Speaker 21 (17:20):
The three half comes out and doesn't stop out like
a normal fur, just mets and it has to be.

Speaker 14 (17:27):
It's very tigh maintenance.

Speaker 3 (17:31):
Oh so it's more complicated.

Speaker 11 (17:33):
Yeah, like behind is any.

it going people, if you do want to talk. We're
talking about the invasion of the doodles. It seems that
you go to a dog pack. That's all they are
these days, particularly America. I think that's really taken off there.
I think they do have problems through the sorts of

(18:12):
breeding they have had.

Speaker 2 (18:14):

gonna take twelve days for the scaffolding company to install them,
at a cost to the rate payer of half a
million every time. Wow to one hundred bucks per seat?

(22:18):
Could you tell me the article about that. If it's true,
you wouldn't be spending one hundred bucks a seat, would you.

he's too dangerous. Marcus telled Ian that some people don't
know to be licked to death. We don't like dogs, Hi, Tom,

(22:40):
I recet a dust up with my older brother. Is
middle child syndrome a thing, Marcus. I worked as a
professional dog walker, so I'm not talking nonsense. Mixed breeds
are agamble. What you get pure breeds, you know what
you're dealing with, Marcus. Some people have nothing better to
do than get genetically modified dogs, and of all things,

(23:01):
take them to puppy school and work. The mind boggles.
I don't think any dogs are generally modified. I think
all dogs, all dogs originally came from wolves that hung
around the camp and got domesticated. Then they have branched
out into all directions, and what they're doing now is
just branching out and furtherm I don't think there's anything untoward.

(23:23):
I think the untoward stuff is when you've got pure
breeds and they're breeding with their progeny, so you think
it actually work out, there'd be better dogs. That's my
take on that one, Marcus. I've got a sixty cagy
rock wheeler, a British staff in a Scottish Terrier all
sleep on my bed every night and winter under the covers.
Love them to death. It's interesting how people put their

(23:45):
weights of their dogs. I'm on you to ask someone
what their weight was, not their weight was, what their
dog weight was?

Speaker 17 (23:50):
What?

Speaker 22 (23:51):
What?

Speaker 17 (23:51):
What?

Speaker 2 (23:52):
Now?

Speaker 3 (23:53):
I found the article someone sept with the article about
the seats. Wow, it does cost, it says six figures.
Oh yes, it says it's one hundred bucks per seat.
That is crazy. They're spinning a hunt of dollars per
seat to put in temporary seats. They won't ever be
the good ones you could sell for that much because
they're in the end of the fields. I always thought that.

(24:15):
I always thought that stadium design and theory and thinking
around that was bad from day one. You want a stadium,
you can have concerts. You could also play rugby, not
vice versa. Anyway, thank you for seeing that article through
one hundred bucks per seat to put in the scaffolding.
Oh wait, one hundred and eighty ten, eighty nine to

(24:35):

updated with the news. It's not good for the Middle East.

(26:26):
talking Labra doodles and your dogs. Your dogs have got
the poodle in them. The guy said, My dog loves
to let people of death. He doesn't like dogs. My
dog would sense that not go near that person. Yes,
whether that's true or not, I don't know. Some people
that don't like dogs attract dogs. I feel. That's my take.
Email me if you can. It's dogs and the crazy

(26:48):
situation that they're paying one hundred dollars a seat to
set up temporary seats at to Kaha. Marcus, we have
a golden doodle. He's really smart, he was wool, but
you'd need to be aware they need grooming. Because of
the standard poodle. He has big exclamation mark. Lots of
people look think he looks like foulcre off never end story. Wow,

(27:08):
Well he's big dog, looks like sort of that sheep
dog from the kid's books. Carry meer the name of
the book that I'm thinking about. It will come to me, Marcus.
I'm just listening to show not I just had my
seventeen year eight month retrodoodle put to sleep. His mother
was a Retriever poodle cross and his dad was a
miniature poodle. He was a lovely natured dog and mastered

(27:31):
the basics of dog training as a puppy. I wouldn't
say it was the brightest dog in the will be
had his moments. He could be overly excitable when youngest
I jumped on, but he grew out of that in
later years. His food was wool like, so that it's
one of the biggest downsides. He had to be groomed
every twelve weeks and didn't like it when he got older.
As he became anxious you to losing his hearing. In sight,
he did start getting dementia symptoms. A couple of years ago.

(27:56):
I recently read that both retrievers and poodles can be
prone to dementia. He was a great companion to my cats.
I miss him dearly. Wow, nice to hear from you, Marga.
Fifteen to nine forty three seven the hurricanes over thehegh
Land of seven minutes to go, Helen, Helen, that's Marcus.

Speaker 7 (28:14):
Good evening, Hello Marcus.

Speaker 15 (28:17):
I thought that I would just put a word in
for the ordinary wonderful dogs we have. I had a
beautiful Border Collie hunt away boy, and what a treasure
and how intelligent he was. Wow, you know, yeah, I
don't sit and yes he shed a bit, but too bad.
You know, we can't have everything. He wants everything perfect.

Speaker 6 (28:38):
In our lives.

Speaker 3 (28:40):
I think that do you think some people are against
all these woolen dogs, aren't they? There's any bit of
a backlash against them? And people say they've got behavioral problems.

Speaker 15 (28:48):
Yes, yes, I've heard that too. And yet my beautiful
big boy was so Actually I didn't give him credit
for his smartness. He was such a smart boy.

Speaker 3 (29:00):
And I think, do you think people want an intelligent dog?

Speaker 11 (29:05):
You know?

Speaker 15 (29:06):
Funny but dog I had before this one was a
Springer Cocker cross and he was the dumbest dog I've
ever had. But I loved him to bits and he
loves it.

Speaker 21 (29:19):
You know.

Speaker 15 (29:19):
We'd take him down to the river ned swim horizontal,
I mean vertically.

Speaker 21 (29:25):
We have to go and get him out.

Speaker 19 (29:27):
Wow.

Speaker 15 (29:29):
But he was a beautiful boy. I don't know why
people do go on about how intelligent intelligent they are.

Speaker 3 (29:35):
Yeah, I wonderful. I wonder why because yeah, I don't
know if i'd want my dog to be intelligent, because
because they are dogs after all, and there's not much
they can do. So I've got if post cards. I mean,
they can't go out and shop or anything. Kick can they?

Speaker 15 (29:51):
No, they can't.

Speaker 20 (29:54):
Agree with it.

Speaker 3 (29:55):
I think a lot of people like dogs because they're loyal,
don't they That they're always there, and that they that
they make you feel They make you feel so loved
because you feed them once.

Speaker 8 (30:04):
In a while.

Speaker 15 (30:09):
Yes, you're probably right, Helen.

Speaker 3 (30:13):
Are you on a farm?

Speaker 16 (30:15):
No?

Speaker 2 (30:15):
No, I'm not.

Speaker 15 (30:16):
I'm in a camper van.

Speaker 3 (30:17):
Oh okay, because it sounds like a farming breed. That
second one you said you've got, Now, what did you
say it was?

Speaker 2 (30:23):
Oh?

Speaker 15 (30:23):
He was he came from a farm. He was a
border Collie hands waycross, but he wouldn't work.

Speaker 16 (30:30):
And I found him on trade me.

Speaker 6 (30:32):
Was he too trade?

Speaker 3 (30:34):
Was he too smart to work?

Speaker 15 (30:36):
I think he probably was?

Speaker 3 (30:38):
It like, now, where have you ended up? Where have
you ended up? Tonight?

Speaker 2 (30:44):
Helen?

Speaker 3 (30:44):
What part of the country are you in?

Speaker 9 (30:47):
Oh? Good on you?

Speaker 3 (30:48):
And you're there for a while, just a night or two.

Speaker 15 (30:51):
Oh no, I'm here for a little for a while. Yes,
and I'm in this wonderful park right on the river. Sorry,
right on the lake.

Speaker 3 (30:59):
Oh that sounds beautiful. Hell And we'll let you go.
But nice to talk to you. Thank you. Marcus till twelve.
I wait, one hundred and eighty today they had away
from nine. It's all about dogs, and I want to
talk to you about your dogs that you've got that
really have had weird behaviors and how you've managed to
because other people might find that useful. Right, you've got

(31:20):
a dog that's yout Do we rewire it?

Speaker 2 (31:25):
Maybe?

Speaker 3 (31:25):
I don't know what you've got to say. Oh, by
the way, it's a retro night at the Highlanders match,
thirty years since the Highlanders have played. He's a shot
of Oldamien and a Colt he's the local radio out
to there. I think works hard, that kid. I see
him around the traps occasionally wearing a top hat. I
think i'd wear a celt In the top hat. They

(31:46):
are good on them. Halftime in the league, full time ish,
last minute forty three seven. Still I think Hurricanes over
the Highlanders and the Sonifican's finished at one three six
for nine. After the twenty overs, New Zealand to bat shortly,

(32:09):
Dogs and Takaha Stadium. If you want to talk before
the news, go for gold Well. That wasn't good for
their thirty year celebration. The Highland is seven the Hurricanes fifty.
That's not close anyway you're looking at. That's the situation
there too. The second part two second innings, New Zealand

(32:30):
batting in the twenty twenty, the twenty overmatch, the t
twenty that's even. But that'll be free to wear on
TV one. Also, if you want to get involved with
that Hittel twelve o'clock people, we are talking Dogs and
the stadium in christ Church one hundred bucks a seat
to put the new seats in. That's crazy, Robin. It's Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 11 (32:54):
Hi, Marcus rhy it was a really nice call from
Helen that just rang in who says, I've got the
most dopious dog, but it's the most beautiful dog.

Speaker 2 (33:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (33:13):
Yeah, And I think when you have a dog like that,
they can be really dopey if they make you laugh.
But like all dogs, when they look at you, you
see the love in their eyes. And when you give
that love back to them, they're happy chappies and it

(33:35):
makes the world look brighter at the end of the day.
And she got that dog as a.

Speaker 6 (33:42):
Rescue dog exactly.

Speaker 11 (33:45):
Yeah, and that's really cool. And if she hasn't got
a dog now, maybe she can go and get another,
another little wee thing to have in her older age
as well. But yep, now you can have a silly dog.
You just got to be patient.

Speaker 3 (34:06):
Have you got one?

Speaker 11 (34:08):
No, I haven't, But I've had dogs all my life
and I really miss having a dog.

Speaker 18 (34:17):
I do.

Speaker 11 (34:18):
And so I've been listening to the program and it
just melts my heart to hear the different stories.

Speaker 3 (34:29):
And Okay, I'll leave it there, but thank you for that, Robin.
Someone has texted through. I bet there's a lot of
cat people out there fuming about tonight's topic. You there
are some people triggered cat people. Marcus, what was the
outcome about middle child syndrome being a thing? My boomer
mum always spoke about it, but I wasn't sure if
it was a nationwide limited to Wamao. I haven't heard
anything about middle child syndrome ever. Marcus loved the subject

(34:53):
of dogs. But can we also talk about how much
dog food cost the owners would be? Well, apparently that's
gone up in price in the index, that was up
a lot. I have a shit to be shon cross
lovely Nature. Only five point five kgs doesn't shed. There
you go if you want to talks, text, talk image,
send your image, send your shots, send your photos. It's

(35:14):
a plan. Scooby is a good name for a dog,
isn't I'm sure there's clean of dogs called Scooby. Yeah,
but everyone says the dogs are so smart. But I
wonder why that's even a thing for dogs. I guess
once you get them, you're not gonna make them smarter.
If you've sort of got to. Once you've got them,
that's it. I think that's a lot. When you're supposed
to get rescue dogs, aren't you If they say some
of those rescue dogs are quite problematic. You kind of

(35:34):
can't undo the damage that's done. The discussion tonight is
crossbreed dogs, with the article of The Guardian. The crossbreed
dogs show more behavioral problems than pure breeds. Study suggests
that's your cocker pool, your carve a pool, your labordoodle,
more undesirable breeds than the behaviors, more undesirable hate behaviors
and the breeds they derive from. But people love them,

(35:57):
are not allergic to them. I think people love the
way they look like teddy bears and they're they're the
growth theory is and that if you go to a
dog walking park, that's what all the dogs are these days. Apparently.
I don't like the high fences a dog exercise places
looks anyway. I think there's a one that is a

(36:19):
Saint Bernard poodle cross, Is that right? I suppose you
can cross anything with anything, can't you. It's amazing, though,
through breeding, that they got so much variation in dogs,
isn't it. We look at a great, great day and
a addiction and they all came from the same wolves
that were hanging around the village, and that a misticated
I think that's how it works. Blah blah blah. Nine

(36:42):
two nine was the text number. That's what we're about tonight.
It's mainly about dogs. But have you who's going to
actually confess to one of the ones having a behavioral problem?
What they did about it? Marcus and they wanted Jamie
Joseph to coach the All Blacks? Mind you only what
you got. I have a funny story about an intelligent dog,
but no answer. I have a ticket to fly to Europe.

(37:03):
Auckland Dubaim hadread fourth April. Anyone else that has some situation?
Do both very close to straight o'ha mus spell Harmu's right,
they're spelled like famous.

Speaker 2 (37:11):
With an H.

Speaker 3 (37:14):
I want to go to that. I want to go
to that. I want to go to that. I'm on stuck.
I want to go to that all that roller coaster
park in Saudi Arabia. Do you think there'd be a
good time to go now? Herr broached it with the kids.
Yet my card is smarter than a shitsu. You're probably right.

(37:35):
We have a cocker spaniel. He bonk has got issues. Yeah,
well confess it. Cross bread dogs, cross bred dogs. We're
talking cross bread dogs. Funny world. The pure bred world though,
isn't it. It's like eugenics. Well, I guess there's eugenics,
is it. Paul good evening, Yes.

Speaker 6 (37:55):
Good evening. Yeah, just talking cross bread dogs. We used
to call them mongols, and we always thought that mongols
were more intelligent and they lived longer than the pure
breeds because some pure breeds, like German Shepherds, they inherit

(38:16):
sort of hip problems. Cocker Spaniels can have mental issues
and that type of thing. And yeah, I just I'm
just surprised at the crosses between poodles, because poodles are
classified as one of the most intelligent dog breeds. Let
this reporter's come out.

Speaker 3 (38:38):
Yeah, are surprised too, Yeah, because I thought by increasing
the because it's actually quite surprising. How like if you
look at breeds like Alsatians and Dopemens, I mean they
all happen very very quickly. Yeah, Yeah, like the foundation
or breed for the German shepherd didn't happen until eighteen

(38:59):
sixty eight. So we're not talking long.

Speaker 6 (39:01):
No, not in you know, lifetime terms, Yeah, not lifetime.

Speaker 3 (39:05):
Terms at all. I wonder what were poodles designed for?
Why are they so intelligent?

Speaker 6 (39:12):
I'm not sure, but it's just come up in some
other you know, you get reports these days about everything,
only reports surveys. This one contiticts to the other. I
just remember seeing that poodles were classified as one of
the most Maybe the way they learn things, I don't know,
but I mean human beings were mongrels when you think

(39:34):
about it, I mean when you look at ancestry, well,
not mine. I can talk about my own. You know,
it's Irish, there's Danish, there's English, there's Welsh, there's everything
in it.

Speaker 19 (39:48):
And so.

Speaker 6 (39:50):
I just think that it's it surprised me that they
are reported come out about the.

Speaker 3 (39:55):
Dogs, worries the cross What worries me is the people
at the dog pack. They're looking down at the cross
breeds and they're thinking they've got behavioral problems. And people
are kind of feeling uh, petty and sympathy for these
people because I think the dogs on and I think
a lot of dogs are on antidepressants. But I think
that's probably another thing that's because they're not doing what
they need to do. They're not hunting. I'm going to

(40:16):
run poor, but nice to talk. Jefference Marcus good evening,
what's a dog you got Jeff.

Speaker 8 (40:22):
Oh, sorry, yeah, I would like to talk about my felt,
this beautiful German shepherd. I had had a little bit
of labrador on her, but she was a beautiful looking dog.
And my wife got around out of the pound and
bought a home and she was probably about five years

(40:46):
of age. But I was doing security at night, not
doing a ten hour run for Armored Freightways and which
is now Armagard, of course, and I decided I spoke
my boss and he said, I'll tell you what, Jeff,

(41:10):
I'll get this guy to trainer and if she succeeds,
I'll pay for it. But if she fails, you pay
for it. And it was a matter of who have
been by my side attacking and follow her off, get
her to come off, and she succeeded. So I used

(41:34):
to take I used to take my dog with me
because I used to go around several premises late at night,
early hours of the morning, because I started work at
seven o'clock at night and finished at six in the morning.
And but I didn't know what she was really going

(41:56):
to be like. And in Tearrannger there there was the
old Taronga Hotel, and that's going a long way back now, and.

Speaker 17 (42:08):
I was.

Speaker 8 (42:09):
I stopped the van and I saw this guy come
out and he smashed his bottle and told me that
he was going to put it into my face. Wow,
and I just I just I just laughed at him.
So because I can't I can't be on the same
channel as the police. I immediately grabbed the RT and

(42:32):
I used to go off in an alarm system at
my box's house if we pushed the emergency button. And
I said to him, my mate, get the police down here.

Speaker 20 (42:43):
This guy is going to have a go.

Speaker 8 (42:45):
And I told him to sit down, and I said,
you're under a rest mate, And I said, you're not
going anywhere, buddy, and you're certainly not going to put
that bottle on my face. I can assure you that,
because in those days I could fight. I was a
tough dude. And anyway, he wouldn't listen. And I put

(43:06):
the log in to him and so he ripped him
right through the hip and dragged him into the gutter.
So so there was so there was, there was plenty
of plenty of incidents during the course. I had my
German shepherd and she was absolutely fantastic.

Speaker 4 (43:28):
Mate. I'll tell you what she was my best mate.

Speaker 3 (43:32):
How was the guy's hip was that? How was the
guy's hip?

Speaker 8 (43:38):
I don't know. The police the police turned up, sort
of grabbed them, handcuffed him and chucked them in the car,
chucked him in the police wagon. So I don't know
what his hip was like at all. I really didn't care.
Uh the point. The point was, I don't know the
idea of people going to shove a bottle onto my

(44:00):
face and so there. But that was only one, one
little incident that My German shepherd was absolutely fantastic. Her
name was Zoe and she she had a great nature.
But when she got into that van at night, the

(44:20):
change in her was unbelievable. She knew she was out
there to work with me.

Speaker 3 (44:27):
Nice to talk to Jef. Thank you for that. She
took a dramatic turn that story, isn't it? Wow? Goodness?
You think you attacked the hip? What was the guy's crime?
I threatened with a bottle in me? Oh, I've read
poodles most of my life. They were bread as water

(44:49):
dogs to receive ducks, super intelligent but wilful. Egota, Please,
I love mine more than ever, Lindy. Let's say from it.
I said I love Mince more than ever, Marcus. Do
you know the story of Rintinton? Very good book written
ten Tino. I think it's by Yes, I know a
lot about Rintonton soldier wanted back from the war and

(45:11):
was desperate to make him, was desperate to make him
a star and succeeded. So yeah, I do know a
lot about Rintingon. I don't want to Winton Tin brag,
but yeah, I'm very much aware of Rintondon. Susan ully On.
She wrote the Orchard book, The Life and the Llegiondon
gorgeous looking dog Renting, and then there were many other

(45:36):
written tint because obviously too he had a whole stable
of Rentendon's back in the day. But yes, I do
know the story of Rintondon. I'm enjoying saying that get
in touch. Eighteen past nine. A lot of people are
telling me that the Gulf War thing is out of control.
But people are sending me what I look to be misinformation.

(45:57):
It seems that people are so desperate for something to
happen they've gone looking at other news sources. But I
don't know that there's any being any big develop Mones todaight,
I'll tell you what the indicator is the price of crude.
B bring crude. He has come down when I sex
it down one point seven four percent. It's a good thing.
Nineteen past nine, one past nine, and this is Marcus.

(46:22):
Welcome to the E waves on this fine Friday night.
Good evening to you.

Speaker 24 (46:27):
Meaning, I thought i'd just let you know that when
I was sort of I suppose say, courting my husband
aged ago, my late husband, he took me back to
Ireland and he he had a dog called Marcus. He

(46:47):
didn't accept me for a long time, and then he
gradually got to know me a bit. This is just
been one weekend, the first weekend and he realized. I
thought he was a lovely dog, but it was very
very wary of this woman coming in and taking him
away from the big Wow.

Speaker 3 (47:08):
Was he an Irish wolfhound?

Speaker 20 (47:11):
I don't know.

Speaker 24 (47:13):
I really don't know that now. He was quite a
big dog, long legs, smooth coat, grayish colored, very pleasant
when when I got to know him. But I just could.
I just had to tell you about Marcus.

Speaker 3 (47:31):
I've never I've never heard in all my years, I've
never heard of a dog called Marcus.

Speaker 20 (47:35):
That's funny, yeah, but I mean there are dogs.

Speaker 3 (47:39):
Names, aren't they like, Yeah, I don't know what a
dog's name would be, but yeah, never one called Marcus, is.

Speaker 11 (47:48):
Funny.

Speaker 3 (47:48):
Did he become the family dog or had he moved
on by then?

Speaker 24 (47:53):
No, he stayed back in Ireland and and my husband
and I we came out.

Speaker 7 (47:59):
To New Zealand.

Speaker 24 (48:02):
But his mother, he was living with his mother at
the time, even though he's a adult. He'd been away
to university and what war Okay, when he met me,
we we decided we wanted to come out to New Zealand.
And so he'd been on his own quite a lot
with his with my husband's mother, who too had lost

(48:25):
her husband, and she was very fond of him, so
that it's good to have him stay with her.

Speaker 3 (48:32):
Really, Marcus the dog. We'll see if anyone else has
got some names about that? And thank you for that.
Get in touch here Land. My name is Marcus. Welcome
to do oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty dogs, dogs,
dogs barely behaved dogs and dogs with problems? And what
have you done about that? Because you do often hear
about people dogs that, boy, there are a problem. I

It's going to be a short night, I'd say at
Edenbag or the other story too, And thanks for the
p that sent that through to me. There was all
this fuffle about the stadium and christ Church and what
they've now found out about the stadium in christ Church
is that there's five it's only going to capacity of

(49:37):
twenty five thousand seats. The extra five thousand seats cost
half a million to put in temporarily at one hundred
dollars per seat, and takes twelve days to do it.
That's crazy. But the weird thing was, I'm just coming
to terms with some of these details. The five thousand

(49:59):
temporary seats increase the project's cost by fifty million dollars,
but you're still going to I's got them. They'll want
to be used once this year at the opening round
event in the space instead of the entertainment performances, merchandise
stand small retractable grand stands, down unlimited food and beverage
for guests. It's only used for the All Black Tests

(50:20):
against France and July and it must be built from
scratch for each event and takes twelve days to install.
But why did the stadium cost fifty million dollars more
to have those seats when when they're not there most
of the time, it's not paying for the seats because
the seats is just scaffolding. The field club for the

(50:43):
stadium's ANZAC weekend Super Round matches super Rugby Pacific chose
to use the Lancaster Pad to set up to areas.
One is the exclusive Crusaders and venues Alta or Taal
Tahie Field Club Hospital Area which come its Ford guests.
It costs four hundred and sixty eight dollars and it's
got bouncy castles and the like. Oh, for goodness sake,

(51:07):
And they're not bringing the mobile seats in for the
Warriors when they play the Broncos. No, I don't know
if they are playing the Broncos, but they're playing at
once at one US in the stadium in June. Now
we are talking dogs orso on bad breeds. You at
yourself a bad breed. I wait a hundred eighty ten
eighty and nine nine to de text Marcus my six

(51:31):
year on and I look out for a man in
his German sheperd every day at three ten on the
way home from scored upper Hut. He also walks by
a house at sixteen every day on our cameras must
be famous and Upper Hut anyway brightens my son's day
each day. Keeping an eye out for him. Gosh, a
lot of people have cameras, don't they. My daughter and
son in law had a miniature poodle. She lived for
sixteen and a half years. Very clever. Poodles are a

(51:53):
German breed. Bread for retrieving game iy duck ducks. That's
a plan all about the dogs and anything else and
the war. I wait hundred eighty ten eighty cricket score
in the air forty seven without loss after five hours,

a good clung to on two. Jeremy Brown.

Speaker 3 (54:05):
Good name to talk, Britt, Thank you, old Charlie Brown. Max,
It's Marcus.

Speaker 6 (54:09):
Hello, Oh here Marcus. I was listening to the lady
talking about the dog called Marcus. Triggered something in my mind.
The do you know what the most the most popular
name for a male dog in America is not Spot.

Speaker 3 (54:27):
Give me the first letter, give me the second letter.

Speaker 6 (54:32):
Hey, I'll give you a clue. When I called and
you spoke to me.

Speaker 3 (54:37):
I don't answer the called, oh no.

Speaker 6 (54:40):
But when you said hello, Max, Oh.

Speaker 3 (54:43):
Is it Max? I'll be Max, won't it?

Speaker 6 (54:46):
It's Max?

Speaker 3 (54:46):
Wonder what it's Max?

Speaker 8 (54:48):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (54:49):
It's Max. I looked that there's a few Max dogs
in New Zealand because over the years, occasionally I've been
on in a park or something like that, and some
woman screaming away across the park. Max, come I here,
And I've thought, hang on, who's yelling at me? And

(55:11):
and I've turned around, and sometimes I've actually said what
do you want? And I've said no, not either dog.
I said, oh, well, I'm a Max as well.

Speaker 3 (55:21):
It's been the most propos in the eighties. I can't
think why you call it dog Max. I guess it's
easy to say.

Speaker 6 (55:27):
Yeah, it's a German name. I don't Max, so that's
my name. And occasionally I get I get shouted at
by well meaning dog owner in a park, you know, Max,
And I spin around, what's Max?

Speaker 3 (55:41):
What's Max short for?

Speaker 6 (55:43):
I think it might be maximillion more for you Max? Max. Well,
when I was at school on the roll, they registered
me as Maxwell and my mother said, I'm not going
to putting up with that, and you're Max and that's it.

Speaker 3 (55:59):
Oh wow, So it was just a short name. You're
born with it, and they try to make it longer
at school going in Maxwell Smart.

Speaker 6 (56:04):
Yeah, Maxwell Smart, Yeah, Maxwell silver Hammer?

Speaker 3 (56:08):
Who's that?

Speaker 6 (56:09):
And the song you remember that one?

Speaker 3 (56:11):
It's a song?

Speaker 6 (56:12):
Yeah, there was a song Maxwell's Silver Hemmer game down
upon her head. Not very nice. So I didn't killer.

Speaker 3 (56:19):
Did he kill us? Did he kill her with a hammer?

Speaker 20 (56:21):
Well, well, I don't know.

Speaker 6 (56:23):
If he did, but it was in the Yeah, it
was in the song. There was a pop song. I
don't know who wrote it, but it was Maxwell's silver
Hemmer and it came down upon her head. It was
quite a popular I think, went to the top of.

Speaker 3 (56:35):
The chart, top of the pops. It was a Beatles song.

Speaker 6 (56:39):
Was it a Beatles song? Yeah, yeah, just another little thing.

Speaker 3 (56:44):
I'm I'm still I'm still about a fee on the Beatles,
just say you know so, Yeah, I'm not I'm not
big on that.

Speaker 20 (56:50):
But no, no, there was no.

Speaker 6 (56:53):
I'm not quite sure how I feel about them now.
We've heard so much of them over the last, you know,
for sixty fifty sixty years, it's sort of all beats.

Speaker 3 (57:02):
I think he should cut us here. I think McCartney
should cut us here. It looks daft and try and
still look looking about ninety with that silly haircut. I
think he needs to age a bit more gracefully. That's
just me saying that, but I do think it's yeah,
he can do what he wants. I suppose but that's
just my own version of it. I think I don't
think he'd be the mop top when you're ninety. Oh my,
listen that thank you for that. On Maxwell silver Hammer,

(57:26):
get in touch with you, by the way, the New
Zealand that the phoenix. They're being drawn one all at
the moment with Sydney f C. If they wouldn't that
they might go to the finals. That's the phoenix. Now
that's the women. But I shouldn't have to say that
it's the women? Should I? Why is it just the men?
You don't have to say the men, but you say
the women. Boy, the old Sydney roosters are looking pretty average.

(57:52):
In two, Disco did a dirty tackle twisted the penwinth
Fullbacks League. After the tack it was pretty nasty. Didn't
get seen off for it, but he should have because
of the dealy Emma or on it and whatever. But
it wasn't pleasant. And now get in touch if you
want to be a part of the show. Eight hundred
and eighteen ninety talking about dogs and disobedient dogs. Then Edwards,

(58:15):
of course is the guy who the fallback I was
thinking the name of or twenty three to ten anyone
witnessed that house explosion and Christ give us a call.
You might be an eyewitness to that. Hello, evene, it's
Marcus welcome.

Speaker 19 (58:28):
Yeah, you know, Marcus, I've got a bit of a
funny story for you with a dog. You said earlier
about dogs being intelligent, and this one. There was an
old an older couple that I knew, and their dog
that you know those you get those little silver bells

(58:50):
with a with a little button on top, and people
put them on their counter like they're a waiter bell.

Speaker 3 (58:55):
You know, Yes, I used what I used one today. Yes,
I am familiar with those.

Speaker 7 (59:00):
Yep.

Speaker 19 (59:02):
So what they did is they stuck one of these
beside the front door. Every time the door, every time
the dog wants to go outside, he rings the bell.
So he goes he goes up and rings the bell
with his spot ding ding ding, And of course they
come and they let him out for his run. Well,
the poor old chap owner has actually got dementia and

(59:22):
he's a bit unpredictable. And one day he went out
the front door and there's one of these doors that's
got the little push button in the in the round handle,
you know, so that locks behind you.

Speaker 3 (59:31):
Yeah, sniplock.

Speaker 19 (59:34):
That's the block. He went out the door and the
door shut behind him. Of course, when he came to
get back in, he couldn't get back in. But the
dog was on the inside and he was on the outside,
and he's sort of knocking on the door. His wife
was downstairs and she couldn't hear him, and this dog
picked up what was going on, and he went and
he started dinging the bell. If you ding the bell,

(59:58):
the door opened. See he could see that his owner
was stuck on the outside, and if he ding the bell, well,
then the door will open. And finally she came up
from downstairs trying to work out why her husband wasn't
letting the dog out the door, only to find that
actually the husband was the one outside the door.

Speaker 3 (01:00:13):
It's a great story. What breed of dog, Bevon?

Speaker 19 (01:00:16):
I think he was a border collie? Look, he was
the black and white, black and white dog. Really intelligent,
you know, absolutely hiliarriious animal.

Speaker 3 (01:00:26):
I pictured a border collie. As you said, that story
Bevan very well told, as he for every second of that. Maureen,
And to Marcus, hello and good evening.

Speaker 16 (01:00:35):
Online was a border collie as well? Oh my god,
oh what a terrible puppy.

Speaker 3 (01:00:43):
He was where'd you get durable?

Speaker 16 (01:00:48):
Me and my sister were sitting out having a glass
of wine and she kicked the shoes off, and you know,
half an hour later and she went to go get
her shoes and yeah, they were in the middle of
the lawn, chewed up and they were Italian shoes. And

(01:01:08):
he's chewed through about six seat belts in the car
and errach doola. He uh, just absolutely shocking. He's ruined
so many, so much stuff. But we persevered with him

(01:01:31):
and he's he's coming up and leaving. There a bit
of arthritists in his back legs.

Speaker 3 (01:01:39):
But has he got a better more? Has he become
better behaved?

Speaker 21 (01:01:43):
Ah?

Speaker 16 (01:01:44):
Well he hasn't his old age, yes, but he was
a terrible puppy.

Speaker 3 (01:01:50):
Did you try did you try puppy school for him?

Speaker 19 (01:01:54):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (01:01:55):
Yeah, good night.

Speaker 16 (01:01:57):
No, he's he's as clever as he's dumb.

Speaker 3 (01:02:01):
Oh yeah, smart, stupid yep, definitely.

Speaker 16 (01:02:08):
We love him though. He's coming up and leaving.

Speaker 3 (01:02:11):
Now, where'd you get the dog?

Speaker 16 (01:02:18):
Darfield?

Speaker 3 (01:02:19):
Oh you're from a breeder farm? Yeah, farm from a farm?

Speaker 16 (01:02:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:02:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 16 (01:02:26):
They were actually terrible actually, because we were about to
go on a cruise and we bought him and we said,
can you keep them until we get back from our cruise.
So they said, yeah, that's fine, you know, so we
bet to pay for them to keep him. So we

(01:02:47):
got him when he was about three months old. So
when we got back from our cruise, we went and
picked him up and they said, oh, he ate us
out of house and him. What a load of bullshit
that was? Yeah, because them that he was very, very
fussy and eating very fussy.

Speaker 7 (01:03:09):
So they were alive.

Speaker 3 (01:03:11):
What did you call that dog?

Speaker 16 (01:03:13):
Because he ate the mayor of house and him?

Speaker 3 (01:03:16):
They reckon they punch, goodness sake, what's he called?

Speaker 4 (01:03:20):
Shep?

Speaker 2 (01:03:21):
Oh? Shep?

Speaker 3 (01:03:23):
You go shp es in short for ship short for
shipland pony. Forty to four pen with over Sydney fifty
nine for zero after seven overs chasing one three seven
to win. That is a cricket. Keep the texts, texts.
Have you got any war update? Let us know? Three
weeks one day, three weeks Marcus with my daughter of Australia.

(01:03:46):
She called it dog Marcus, after the Roman emper Marcus Aurelius.
There you go, hold your horses, John with you soon
fifteen to ten. Hello, John, This is Marcus.

Speaker 13 (01:03:56):
Welcome is hello Marcus. How did the muster go to?

Speaker 3 (01:04:01):
Notice? This weekends the High Country Muster? You're gone get
him back. The High Country Muster is a Sunday, sat
down Sunday. The weather's right, bring him down before the snow. Oh,
I'll document that. I'll put up a video of that
for you if I can. So there we go see

(01:04:25):
if we get John Becky dropped off. Yeah, no, it's
this weekend, John. I'll I'll keep you posted about that.

Speaker 13 (01:04:33):
Oh, that's all right. But I do have a story
about a lovely dog. He was called Jock, and one
of my boys wanted a dog after I sold the
farm and we moved to the city and we got
this dog from the country. He was a real Saturday

(01:04:55):
night job because he well breed. Wise, I called him
a teagle because he was a terrier at the front
and the beagle at the back. Yes, but a wonderful,
lovely dog, floppy ears front, sharp upright tail at the back.

(01:05:18):
And he had the freedom of the city when we
came to town and we lived near the university, and
he used to go over to the university every lunchtime
because the students sitting out there looking over the river.
They would feed him bits of sandwiches and stuff like that.
So he was a wonderful dog. But he didn't like

(01:05:39):
my father. Oh no, my father didn't like domestic dogs.
And my father and Jock had a bit of a
running when Jock was a wee puppy and Jock was
pushed outside one day and jop never forgot it. And

(01:06:02):
every time my father came anywhere near the house, I said,
as the car came up the drive anything like that,
Jock would start growling. It was just amazing how the
dog could smell or sense that my father was approaching,

(01:06:24):
and it could be, you know, hundred yards away, and
Jock would start growling. Fascinating.

Speaker 3 (01:06:32):
Now you mentioned the term that Jock was a Saturday
night job. What does that mean.

Speaker 13 (01:06:39):
He was a mongrel?

Speaker 2 (01:06:41):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (01:06:41):
Okay, it's not an expression I am familiar with.

Speaker 18 (01:06:45):
But is that right?

Speaker 3 (01:06:47):
Is that something from some sort of sordid liaison? Is
that a Saturday night job?

Speaker 25 (01:06:53):
Well?

Speaker 13 (01:06:53):
I suppose it was just a must be, a must.

Speaker 3 (01:06:57):
Be a chrustitch expression, is it? I've never heard.

Speaker 13 (01:07:00):
I think. I think it means you don't know quite
what you're breeding was you.

Speaker 3 (01:07:04):
Know, I think I get that well, not away from
ten Saturday night job seven from ten. The number, well,
you know the number, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty
n till twelve. Get in touch if you do want
to talk. The rooster's got hammered about forty four not
even in it. Marcus is a good thing. The dogs

(01:07:24):
and Marcus is a good thing. The dog and foot
rock flats never had a name. Imagine the chaos that'll
all be named after him. For a good point, Mark's
I had dogs. I like dogs. We had dogs growing up. Today.
I live in live in on my way. I'm a
black staff who's out in the street. The young boy
owned a dog, came out and started beat the dog,
pling its tail, dragging on the path of the dog,
was crying sorry for the dog. You can see why

(01:07:45):
some dogs attack people and children. What one when's what
one when see things like that? Mar's have a ticket
to fly to Europe? All can do buy Madrid for
the vapil. Anyone else in a similar situation do buy.
I've red close to the Strait of harm. No one's
brought down a plane yet. I don't know if the
drone bsals will go that high. Oh, it's the situation

(01:08:07):
now six to ten. If you want to come through
quickly before the news, that's gonna be a good thing.
There might be something different you want to talk about too,
including the war just two more weeks before daylight savings.
The couple of things also happening. There is a stop
go signals on the Coaro Gorge Road Highway six from
Queenstown to Cromwell. Next it's happened there. There's been a

(01:08:31):
house explosion also in christ Church, but to talk about
that on Facebook. Got some pretty nice names on the
Chross Church Facebook page. Margenda, Octopus, Humble, Capperbara, breathtaking, Strawberry.
What's that one going with the real name. I don't
know what that's about. Looks like a pretty lively Facebook page. Yeah,

(01:08:52):
but do get in touch if they want to talk
about any of these topics. Tonight, have you got anything else?
Be in touch eight hundred nineteen night. Keep those texts
coming through. Two people. The Highland has got thrashed and
it was the hurricanes tenth straight win over the Highlands.
It was about fifty to so it was fifty to

(01:09:12):
seven and the cricket Eden Park ninety three for zero.
The black Caps chasing one thirty seven to help me
over is ten point three, So they should do that easily.
I would think that's what we've got. And why would
so many dogs be called Max? I think you want
a short name for dogs to snap isn't because you've

(01:09:33):
got a sad lot Max Max down? Max Max? It works,
doesn't It's got that right sound to it, hasn't it? Max?

Speaker 9 (01:09:40):
Now?

Speaker 3 (01:09:41):
Sort of that one out. But mainly we're talking about
the doodle dogs. If they are more neurotic and more difficult,
that's what the studies have said. It's worse. They're worse
than their breeds they have come from. I thought they'd
probably be better, but that doesn't seem to be the
way it's going. So if you want to talk about that,
that's a good plan. Do come through, Oh, eight hundred

(01:10:03):
and eighty ten eighty and nine nine to de texts.
They're else you want to meant two? We can handle
it as I say eight hundred and eighty eight. Get
in touch. If you want to be a part of
the show, we'll until midnight tonight, after twelve we will
have Jim Snedden and until then we're looking forward to
talking to you if you want to come through and
partake bet a wicket ninety six for one who was

(01:10:25):
out Conway caught out for thirty nine. Still think we'll win.
I did google a bit of a Saturday night job
to see what it meant, but all I came up
with was job offers for night Shifted and her cargol.
So I don't know what a bit of a Saturday
night job means. You might want to answer that. I
have a Burmese a Bernese mountain dog named Dream Gentle Giant.

(01:10:48):
Thinks she's a lapdog. Extremely dramatic, very funny dogs. What's
I don't know what The most stupid dog is the
fgun houndes it? I think that we're famously stupid. The
reason we talk about them and the report that's come
through is that the doodle dogs, the labradoodles, doodlelittles that
they are. Now, what's the next you say? I think
that they are less successful than the breeds they've come from.

(01:11:12):
This is from the British Veterinarian Association with the Bridge
obsessed with dog breeds. Or they're Bridge obsessed with breeding,
aren't they? So that's the news real port. That's what
we are discussing tonight. Cross breed dogs show more behavioral
problems than pure breeds. YEP analyzed data from three four
and twenty four cross breeds and five thousand dollars about
pure breeds. A question of owners of cockapoo, lowbradoodle, caverpoo,

(01:11:35):
cocker spaniel, librator retreeve, Kevali, king Spaniel, and poodle dogs Yes,
free complicated survey. He noted the study suggested cultural factors
might be important. These included difference and owner's behavior between
different breeds. So what they're implying is that the people
that have those dogs don't look after them as well.

(01:11:55):
It seems to have very problematic survey that one.

Speaker 2 (01:11:59):
There we go.

Speaker 3 (01:12:00):
If you want to be a part of the show,
that's a situation. If there's something else you want to
talk about tonight, the Forever War seems to be going
on and on and on. Now they're talking about Saudi
Arabia getting involved. They're talking about Sri Lanka is not
too affected because they have a relationship with Iran gets
revery complicated very quickly, and no one seems to be
not affected, even us half a world away. I think

(01:12:23):
Nettan Yahoo Today has suggested that there is a need
for a ground component in the Iraan war. You can't
do revolutions from the year. They're talking about a doomsday
scenario now with the gates of hormones or the Straits
of hormones. Didn't realize but the world's largest gas field
is actually in this strait. It's in the water. So yes,

(01:12:46):
we all learn a bit. Don't worry about geography as
we follow this. But oh, how's the cricket? One one
ozer for one eye down? We're just about how many
we got from how many overs? Eighteen runs? We need
from thirty six bulls six overs to go? I need

(01:13:08):
three and overs as we read we should do it,
and well we should do it in two overs. But yeah,
if you want to talk on air, if there's something different,
want to talk about it, and I'd love to hear
from you. Saturday Nights Special as a well known saying
in the South Island. I've never heard it, so yeah, well,
I don't think that christ Church comes out well without
saying but oh, well, when would you use that? Will

(01:13:30):
you use that talking about people? I'm kind of speechless
about that. Oh well, as he says, these are the
stories other news stuff you want to mention. That's the
plan if you want to be involved with it. Tonight,
this day in nineteen sixteen, one hundred and ten years ago,
we had Einstein's theory of relativity. This day in eighteen
thirty four, New Zealand's first recognized flag was chosen. Think

(01:13:53):
it's time we changed the flag. I'm joking. One primary
school in awe To Multai has thirteen sets of twins.
It's in Todonger and they're now talking about way too
many deer and whistler and worst it's ever been. So
it seems like they do need a national deer plan.
There is a huge public interest in controlling deer numbers.

(01:14:15):
The deer numbers are going up and everyone's complaining about it,
but there's an obligation to involve the public. Don't quite
know what the solution is going to be there. One
of the local farmers wants aerial hunting of deer more efficient.
I don't think that's I don't think you can do
that now with the cost of fuel. I think it's
just cost prohibitive. It's not like the late sixties, so
that's when I've got forty people thirteen past ten on

(01:14:38):
the Friday free for We want to talk about one
of these topics, particularly barely behaving. If you've got one
of those noodle dogs, how barely behaved was it? Do
you wish you'd never got one? But the inference is
is that sort of people buy those dogs, don't know
how to control them. So I would say there's no
different to all between the dogs. I think it's very
just difference between the the biases of the owners. That

(01:14:58):
would be my take on that one. Now let me
think what else. I've got our zero zero Melbourne, Brisbane
at the stage it's fourteen past ten. I would like
your cause to get this whole half of the show
rolling people, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling. That's
the plan. If you want to talk about these things.
If there's something different, want to talk about good we

(01:15:19):
can handle that also tonight and the UK conflict escalation
sees lenders pul deals as experts. Waterhouse owners could see
repayments rise one hundred pounds a month. It'll be three
grand a year in New Zealand because we'll be affected.
Good evening, Christus is Marcus Welcome.

Speaker 20 (01:15:39):
Hey, Marcus, all of the pleasure to talk to you.

Speaker 3 (01:15:42):
Yeah, nice, Chris, you thank you for that. Good an
you yep, and you.

Speaker 20 (01:15:46):
I'm glad you picked a topic like dogs with the
armageddon that's going on over in the Middle East at
the moment.

Speaker 13 (01:15:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:15:52):
Well, we had a febit of that this week and
it's Friday. I found the whole thing quite depressing.

Speaker 20 (01:15:56):
So the why, to be honest, but I want to
tell you about my dog.

Speaker 2 (01:16:00):
What is it?

Speaker 20 (01:16:01):
So she's a miniature poodle, So I think miniature come
up to about your knee, the big ones come up
about your waist, and then they've got the little toy
poodle that's about as big as your feet.

Speaker 3 (01:16:12):
Yes, but I've got this.

Speaker 20 (01:16:14):
We've only had it for about a year. We actually
went out buying furniture and hastings than the guy that
was selling us some furniture says to us at the end,
he said, oh, would you like a dog? And he said, no, no,
we can't look after her. You know, our mum's died.
And then we've got this dog and it's six years
old and it's got a few issues. And I just

(01:16:35):
want to say all that stuff that you were talking
about from your research is all true. Yeah, I've got
the mega problems.

Speaker 3 (01:16:44):
Really and that's a pure bred dog too, so should
have less. But anyway, tell me more.

Speaker 20 (01:16:49):
Oh no, No, she's when we first got it. She's
a beautiful dog. It's a black miniature poodle. Her name
was Cindy. We renamed it to the word noodles because
it was more appropriate for her personality. Yes, but she
had hearing issues, hearing infection issues with her ears. There's

(01:17:09):
OWDs an issue there. We've spent hundreds of bucks on
medical bills for teeth. For what else has she done?

Speaker 2 (01:17:15):
You know?

Speaker 20 (01:17:15):
In terms of issues, she's got probably more psychological and
you know mental issues that I think I probably have.
But she's a problem. She's very, very needy. So she's
six years of age. We've had her for about a
year now, so you can't leave her anywhere for any

(01:17:38):
period of time if you go anywhere, particularly Mum, if
we go out somewhere, she'll be owling and her hooting
at the moon to try and get back to Mum.
She's a delight she's got. She's also got this issue.
I think they have an issue with their throats. They're
sort of their throats sort of like if they start barking,

(01:17:59):
it sort of like they're breathing through a very small aperture.
She has that issue too, so been into the vents
for that. She's Oh, she's she's a shocker, but you
know what, we love her. She's fantastic. I was having
a smile at the guy with the with the shepherds
because I've always had German shepherds and for some reason
we decided to take on a poodle and that guy

(01:18:22):
was talking about doing security work. Well, I'm a security
guy too, and I was thinking I could take the
poodle along.

Speaker 19 (01:18:28):
Because the poodle would lick, would lick.

Speaker 20 (01:18:30):
The criminal into submission.

Speaker 3 (01:18:32):
I reckon, Christ, do you think the guy gave it
to you falsely represented the dog?

Speaker 2 (01:18:37):
Did he?

Speaker 3 (01:18:37):
Did he give you a fair assessment of the dog's problems?

Speaker 6 (01:18:42):
I think so.

Speaker 20 (01:18:43):
Yeah, there's just issues that she's had since we've had
her medical issues mainly, but she does She's not very
well socialized with other other animals, and I guess that's
her upbringing. But she's incredible. I'll take her for a
walk and she'll see some big ball mast up and
try and take the thing on from you know, from

(01:19:04):
a distance. So she's she's kind of like that. She's
not really good with her. She doesn't really mix very
well with others.

Speaker 3 (01:19:13):
Did you know straight away when you saw her that
you'd take her?

Speaker 20 (01:19:15):
Oh? Yeah, for sure. And they're acute animal there you
know you love them to death, you know, warts and all.

Speaker 3 (01:19:23):
Nice story, Chris, nice story. Noodles, Noodles, There we go.
Cindy City is a strange name for eighteen past ten dogs.

Speaker 11 (01:19:31):
It is.

Speaker 3 (01:19:31):
That's the discussion tonight or anything else you have ever
got the wall we can. I got my precious Ree
pommet Raney in Shihuahua picking as cross the SPCA fourteen
years ago. The Mixsbury dogs were called SBCA specials, not
in a meaning way, and I've always been proud to
call her special. My best companion. Loves so much.

Speaker 17 (01:19:50):
Mary.

Speaker 3 (01:19:51):
By the way, too, they do say at the dog
exercise yard the if you've got the rescue dogs, you
are kind of top of the picking order because you're there.
You know, it's the most worthy kind of dog to have,
I would imagine. So that's the way to go. Get
in touch eight hundred eight nine nine text. You got
to be a part of it. Yes, that's the Plans stand.

(01:20:12):
No score in the Rugby League. First half quarter gone.
That's the Melbourne Storm versus the Brisbane Broncos. They're trying
out their new white strip, the Broncos the cricket. Not
much time to go, Dan need one more one, one
more run from four overs. I reckon it's a bit
of a dud T twenty when it's close, when it's

(01:20:33):
not close. But that doesn't tell like it's fun at
all for people. It might be we'll gone to an
ad break who's calling the shots? But of a Saturday
night job terrible expression, Isn't it matches people talking about that? Wow?
Bit of a Saturday night job terrible? However, it's twenty

(01:21:01):
past ten and we are talking about your dog stories,
but mainly about doll that have got behavior or emotional
challenges for you and how you've managed to resolve that.
But particularly the noodle dogs, the types of poodle cross
breeds that they are saying are problematic dogs. I think
they've even they've all got different names, of course, and

(01:21:22):
all those names are They've every popular America, it seems,
and they've only been around since nineteen eighty nine. They're
quite a recent breed. They're originally bred for someone that
wanted a seeing eye dog or something or a companion dog,
and their partner had analogy to the here, so it
was Australia. They came from Australia. They've all got ridiculous names,

(01:21:44):
but they are delightful looking. There's even a Dowmer Doodle,
which is a Darmatian poodle. In the Aussie doodle, there
might be a bit blue healer and the Pyra doodle
the Great Pyrenees with no shortage different breeds are there
really goodness? Supplanned people twenty one past ten Get in touch. Hi,

(01:22:08):
Triciaan's Marcus Welcome.

Speaker 23 (01:22:10):
Hi Marcus. I haven't talked to you for ages, and
I thought I'll just give you a call tonight. Always
listen though. So we have a poodle, and we had
a poodle before this one who we had for sixteen years.
He was a black poodle called Winston. And he's a
lovely dog. They're quite they get a bit anxious, and yeah,

(01:22:37):
they loved when my husband came home. I did all
the work, but they loved it when he came home.
And I know that was Yeah, that's just how that went.

Speaker 11 (01:22:48):
And so.

Speaker 23 (01:22:51):
So we had no dog after once, after sixteen years,
and for one year we had no dog, and my
daughter said we have to get d had a dog.
He's lonely without a dog. And I said, oh, look,
you know.

Speaker 15 (01:23:04):
It's a lot of work.

Speaker 23 (01:23:06):
And so Christmas was coming and my daughter said, Mum,
I'm going to get him a dog for Christmas. And
I said, oh okay. So next thing she called me,
I found one in Auckland and it's the last one.
He's a boy and he's what they call a party poodle.

(01:23:26):
I had no idea what that meant.

Speaker 3 (01:23:28):
A party poodle. Yeah, it sounds like that, sounds like
a great offer. Yeah, okay, yep.

Speaker 23 (01:23:35):
And so the black and white spot hilarious looking things,
and so I said okay. Then I relented three thy
nine hundred later cost me to buy him, and she
picked him up the day before Christmas, had it at
her place that night, brought him in here on Christmas
Day and she did say to me, do you think

(01:23:57):
Dad will love him like he loved Winston? And I said, Dad,
so he he an animal lover. He will love the doll.
And so the little dog arrived, tears came down my
husband's eyes. Gave this little dog to him and he
played with.

Speaker 8 (01:24:13):
This little dog all day.

Speaker 17 (01:24:15):
And so.

Speaker 23 (01:24:18):
We had this new dog. And his name's Dice. Do
I see because he looks he's black and white. So
then he's only a few months old. He jumped off
our lounge sweet and broke his leak, and so three
thousand and six hundred later, so now he's nearly a

(01:24:38):
ten thousand dollar dog, and he's a lovely wee dog.
He is obsessed again like the other one was with
my husband. And he has a little bed thing in
the lounge. He's got two actually one of each windows
so he can see out. And he brings all my

(01:24:58):
husband's clothes and shoes and puts them in the basket
and sits with them. Well, it's weird. And last year
he became a diabetic dog. So he gets insulin twice
a day. I've had to learn to do that.

Speaker 6 (01:25:15):
I don't like it.

Speaker 23 (01:25:16):
But when he sees you, but.

Speaker 3 (01:25:19):
You do it and the husband doesn't do it.

Speaker 17 (01:25:21):
No.

Speaker 23 (01:25:23):
Peter will do it. But if he's away a lot,
I've had to learn to do it.

Speaker 9 (01:25:27):
I've had to learn to do it.

Speaker 23 (01:25:29):
And so he sees you get the insulin out of
the fridge. He sees you get the injection out of
the drawer, and he goes and hops up on a
chair and sits there and makes for you to do it.

Speaker 3 (01:25:41):
Oh, that's good. So he knows that the nose is
going to make him feel better, then I guess must do.

Speaker 23 (01:25:46):
So I applaud that man who was told that dog
had issues and he still took her on. And that
was lovely to listen to.

Speaker 3 (01:25:59):
Lovely, So the dice is not a dice is quite
good value, right.

Speaker 23 (01:26:05):
He's very good value. His lifespan won't be as long
as maybe he's about five now. And a clever little
are clever. Dogs are clever. Animals are clever. They really are.
And even though you know I want a new lounge
sweep and I'll get one, but he won't wreck it.

Speaker 18 (01:26:28):
But I don't want him on it.

Speaker 12 (01:26:30):
But ever we on it.

Speaker 3 (01:26:31):
Nice to talk, Chrissia, Thank you so much for that.
Keep your calls coming through. It's all about the dogs.
Keep those texts. If I've pronounced texts right, Sex and
Noll Melbourne have a Brisbane. We have won the one
that we've won. The haven't we done? You told me
and using a one way at wickets with twenty two
balls from only one three seven for to two. Marcus,
We've just lost our sixteen year old rough coat, Jack Russell,
got as a christ Church refugee after the earthquake at

(01:26:53):
eighteen months old. Probably the best things ever happened for
our family. Always after always having big dogs, I would
never go past getting another terrier rop Lewis Marcus, we
have a Shitsu crossed with a King Charts cavalier. As
shit Zulia leans more towards the ship.

Speaker 2 (01:27:10):
There we go.

Speaker 3 (01:27:12):
Brilliant. Yeah, that's true. Was mentioned in the article too,
Why the labradoodle Crowder regrets breeding the Frankenstein breed And
it was a guy that Rolly con Wally Connor and
us Ossie guy. He just bred that dog for a
Hawaiian couple that needed as a companion dog or a
seeing eye dog or something, and he bred the purtle
into it. But then everyone loved them. They're so adorable looking.

(01:27:33):
A very interesting artise. I just reading about that yesterday,
and then, funnily enough, tangentially today I saw it about
an article about da how they're saying that they are
worse bred or they're worse behave the noodle dogsle how
so called designer dogs have upended the pure bred world
and the States too that I think sixty three percent

(01:27:55):
sixty three percent less dogs are now pure bread. They're
all the oodlesodles. Is Trump got a dog? I'm not
sure that he is, Denis. It's Marcus, good evening.

Speaker 21 (01:28:06):
Hi, Marcus. We had a pure bred jack Russell, long
haired Jack Russell with a big rough around her neck.
We also had bantams, and one bantam in particular, Charlotte.
Each morning she'd come in and her head looked all
wet and her comb was strange. So we decided to
follow Charlotte one morning and see what was going on.

(01:28:28):
What happened was she would go into the nest to
lay her egg, and the dog would come and lay
beside her, and as the leg egg got produced, Jade,
the dog would put a paw over the shoulders of
the bantam and lick her head and lick all the comb,
as if to say, well, thank you. Then she let
the bantam go, and then Jade would pick up the egg,

(01:28:50):
take it out in the grass and crack the shell
and eat it.

Speaker 3 (01:28:55):
She did it every morning for a Marcael's story.

Speaker 21 (01:28:59):
Yeah, she was so funny. And she also we had
a lifestyle block and we used to run some young
hairs and she would take the tennis ball up each
morning to the cattle and put it on the grass.
Of course, they were quizzy and they would come and
see what this thing was. And as they got near
the tennis ball, she would raise it and grab it.

(01:29:20):
Of course, the cattle would go everywhere, so she'd lie
low wait till they come down, and she'd take the
ball up again and wait for them to come in.
And it was a game she played nearly every morning.
She was a wonderful dog.

Speaker 3 (01:29:32):
Would dogs know how to eat an egg?

Speaker 21 (01:29:35):
Well, this one did. She was pretty good at it.
She would just put a little I don't know that
they have an eye tooth. She would crack a little.

Speaker 3 (01:29:42):
Yeah, you know, if he gave a dog an egg,
woul they normally eat the egg.

Speaker 21 (01:29:49):
Well, I don't know, but she.

Speaker 3 (01:29:52):
Must have done to get the first one.

Speaker 8 (01:29:54):
Yes, yeah, she.

Speaker 21 (01:29:56):
Certainly knew that Charlotte, this chicken was going to lay
her a egg every morning.

Speaker 9 (01:30:00):
They got on like a house on fire.

Speaker 3 (01:30:02):
They're sweet bendoms. I like bentams.

Speaker 18 (01:30:04):
Yeah, she was lovely.

Speaker 3 (01:30:06):
Okay, oh you know I like a bandam stories and these,
thank you very much for that, and a party poodle
Laurie Marcus.

Speaker 7 (01:30:11):
Welcome Marcus. Hey, I reckon the old egg put the
shine on the court.

Speaker 3 (01:30:16):
Yes, that's right.

Speaker 7 (01:30:17):
Yeah, Hey, my daughter has got a they call a
peppy On peppyon poodle cross and it's the pepyon parts.
It's the butterfly wod so it means the shape of
the years.

Speaker 3 (01:30:31):
Yes, yeah, I'm familiar with the Pepeon breed.

Speaker 7 (01:30:32):
Yes, and she looks it looks idea to called to
Lisa Keingdon's one, the one, you know, the one who
wants called Colin, the one that's on her head. But
this one's Milo. She's a well, she's just she actually
lovely dog. It's around their place most of the time.
I take her for a walk, probably six or seven
days a week, and we do you know if you

(01:30:54):
have ten.

Speaker 3 (01:30:54):
Thousands a good walk or a pain in the neck
to walk.

Speaker 7 (01:30:58):
No, it was no, she's she leads out basically most
of the time. And she she loves anything to do
with tilers and trucks. She'll get pretty excited. It's the
bigg of the truck, the noisier, she'll bark away at it,
you know, and especially and she can pick up the
sound of a trailer coming from behind for ages and

(01:31:19):
she's really to give her the message as it goes past.
But other than that, she's that she ignores literally all
other dogs. That it's just that's just happened to be
the thing. But you know, she's got the ideal features,
doesn't leave any here around, doesn't fart, and not certainly

(01:31:40):
not in our car anyway, we're in around her house.
So that's that's a good thing. But she was a
sort of a rescue dog and probably would say she's
point point five percent psychotic.

Speaker 3 (01:31:55):
And how does how does how does it?

Speaker 8 (01:31:59):
Well?

Speaker 7 (01:32:00):
If you touch your rear end around, yeah, she'll turn
and snap it bite, okay. And and the other thing
is if she's lying asleep, you know said, let sleeping
dogs lie. You don't touch her if she's asleep, because
she explodes into a scratching, biting she'll buy the first

(01:32:23):
thing she gets old of, so you wake her gently.
Basically over that she's a good of marble snow a
couple of days of a few days a week, we
actually drop her off as a comfort dog to another
couple who lost their dog. Are in their nineties now.
So she spends a day over there, sitting.

Speaker 3 (01:32:42):
On you know, she can't be that badly adjusted. As
she goes there a free will and looks looks after them.

Speaker 7 (01:32:50):
Yeah, well they've learned what mean to touch and.

Speaker 20 (01:32:53):
Not not to touch.

Speaker 3 (01:32:57):
Instructions.

Speaker 7 (01:32:58):
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, and they said reason to yeah,
stay with the instructions here.

Speaker 3 (01:33:06):
But would she eat an egg glorry?

Speaker 7 (01:33:11):
I haven't tried. It was an egg shell. Probably have
will go at most other things. It's they have a
big evertye. She chipsys who have anything to do with
chips is her preference. But we seem to think the
rear end things she thought apparently when she was a
risky dog, and they seem to think it has been
from a pitch shop or that was her origin. But

(01:33:34):
had a lot of illness at the early age, and
they seem to think, you know, it's thermomaa being stuck
up a.

Speaker 3 (01:33:40):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that makes perfect sense. Lurry, Hell, look,
thank you for that. It's good call. There we go,
keeping head, we go. Let me just take this break.
It's twenty two to eleven. Well, the night's flowing. It
doesn't seem to be a Corgie poodle does there By
the way, people are telling me, the dogs love eggs,
they eat them, they'll crack them. Gania's Marcus, Welcome.

Speaker 9 (01:34:02):
High Marcus, good evening. Yeah, my dog you to love
is to eat love at the eggs. I wanted to
share some Yeah, yeah, he used to enjoy. But I
would like to share some experience about the New Zealand honey.
Uh like, because my dog wasn't a medication because he
had a high color strawl and the complication, but the

(01:34:25):
health problem as well, so we have always big concern
in regards to his medication. So always just to make
a drama to take a medication. So my aunt she
always to give honey with that medical with his medicines
and him he used to eat with the Indian honey.
And suddenly the Indian honey was like a run out

(01:34:45):
and my auntie gave him with the New Zealand honey
with that medication and he immediately finished without no drama nothing.
So next day the auntie gave him his medicine with
the Indian honey. He stopped taking the medicines.

Speaker 13 (01:35:02):
Wow.

Speaker 9 (01:35:03):
So then Auntie again gave him the medication in the
New Zealand honey. He finished immediately. So whenever I had
to travel to India, I used to carry some big
bottles honey only for him. So intelligent.

Speaker 2 (01:35:17):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (01:35:18):
So as a dog in India or New Zealand.

Speaker 9 (01:35:21):
The dog was in India. He was a fifteen years
old dog and he was passed away in October last year.
But he was so tais conscious always always is to
like some like testy foods as like cashew, peanuts, eggs,
boiled eggs. If I give a pedigree, so always to

(01:35:41):
make a drama, you know, dog food. But flavor milk,
New Zealand honey, New Zealand chocolates as well was the favorite.

Speaker 3 (01:35:50):
So yeah, but because I thought I thought chocolate, I
thought chocolate was a no no for dog, but obviously
not for your one.

Speaker 9 (01:35:57):
Just like small you know what I mean, it's a
big lot. It's like a small like it just like.

Speaker 3 (01:36:04):
A test would you say, Finnish was it a was
it a particular breed of dog or and they have
its own breed.

Speaker 9 (01:36:12):
Yeah, it's a miniature forminion. It's a German spits. And
he was such an intelligent such a cute and he
lived nearly fifteen years and had never had a complication.
The only thing he has a high color polesterol and
some like the calcium problem because I think because of

(01:36:32):
the old age and because he's put on weight and
that's why he's not able to walk properly.

Speaker 3 (01:36:37):
So what I wonder what causes high cholesterol and dogs?

Speaker 9 (01:36:42):
Yeah, because he loves cheese and some like you know,
but yeah, we enjoy He enjoyed a lot, and we
don't want it to just like you know, it was
like a family member. We are eating, so let him
give him a little bit of taste, you know. So
it's just like a family members. And yeah, but he
lived the fifteen years and we did look after him

(01:37:05):
very well.

Speaker 3 (01:37:06):
Obviously, I've real loved Cannise. Thank you so much for that.
Seventeen to eleven here till midnight, fifteen to eleven. Good evenings,
Julie had a.

Speaker 26 (01:37:15):
Very good evening to you, Marcus. First, I want to
say to you what that gentleman said to you last
night about he loves you like a brother. That really
I just I thought the same thing.

Speaker 3 (01:37:28):
Oh that's nice tonight, thank you for that.

Speaker 22 (01:37:30):
Yeah, I just love your program.

Speaker 26 (01:37:33):
Dogs. I have eight wow, from an eye dog. I'm
on a farm. I have a pepion, a butterfly dog.

Speaker 27 (01:37:44):
He's eighteen and he's the most loyal creature.

Speaker 26 (01:37:49):
I can go down the farm and if I'm too
long down there, I look up and there's Caddy. He's
made himself a little nest and a bit of grass
if I'm doing a bit of fencing or something.

Speaker 27 (01:38:00):
But the most loyal little dog.

Speaker 26 (01:38:04):
I've mainly got food of them. I've got papions and
King Charles cavaliers, and.

Speaker 27 (01:38:13):
I just I like my dogs.

Speaker 26 (01:38:15):
I live on my own. I only have one house dog.
The rest of them will live outside. They have their
own kennels. They get covers on them. Every winter they
all get a cover. They all line up in order
as to who when the cover comes out, they always
come the same order. So just put little covers on them.

Speaker 13 (01:38:39):
Eggs.

Speaker 26 (01:38:40):
They love eggs, and a dog can eat an egg
no trouble at all. In fact, they'll pinch them if
they can. I've got one that's a thief, and I
didn't leave the chips eggs out in the bucket where
she can get them, because she'll help herself. I've got
a cat that will pinch them as well. But yeah,

(01:39:01):
some of the stories I've heard about dogs tonight are
just marvelous. And you it is tummy love. A lot
of it's tummy love. Mine all lineup. I've seed them
last thing at night and I say it's dinner time,
and everybody goes nuts, and they all go and hop
in their own channels. They've got channels and runs and

(01:39:24):
they all hoping there waiting for their dinner.

Speaker 3 (01:39:27):
Do you get them feed off the farm.

Speaker 26 (01:39:30):
If I can, like if I do have, I mainly
get most of my meats from farmlands.

Speaker 22 (01:39:41):
I get rolls and I get dog get dog biscuits.

Speaker 26 (01:39:45):
They get a smallgas board. My dogs all thoughts and
never get the same thing.

Speaker 22 (01:39:49):
Always a bit of a smallgas board.

Speaker 26 (01:39:52):
But we've got to.

Speaker 22 (01:39:53):
Freeze the meat if we're using I don't use mutton
very often because of sheep measles, which is the high dadd's.

Speaker 13 (01:40:06):
Grub.

Speaker 22 (01:40:08):
But you've got to freeze it. I've got a freeze
especially for the dog free but I mainly use beef
and I go over to a local butcher at Tarquina
and get dog bones and meat from him, you know,
off cuts and stuff and freeze it. I don't cook it. Beef,
I don't cook. But if I don't freeze, if I

(01:40:30):
get muttons, we have to freeze it from ten to
fourteen days. Fourteen days is more preferable, and I feed
it raw. I don't cook it for the dogs. But yeah,
I have a little house dog. She's a Papillion, a
miniature proxterior cross, and she like her father, she's very

(01:40:56):
very loyal, follows me everywhere.

Speaker 3 (01:40:59):
And you said the dog's eighteen years old?

Speaker 27 (01:41:01):
Did you the drug dog? The old dog is eighteen.

Speaker 3 (01:41:06):
It's a good age, isn't it.

Speaker 11 (01:41:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 22 (01:41:09):
And he's the funniest, funniest little character.

Speaker 27 (01:41:14):
He don't like being touched.

Speaker 26 (01:41:15):
He gets a bit growy. We had a bit of
a flood and my business partner went to lift him
over the creek and.

Speaker 27 (01:41:22):
He's John picked him out and his dog don't. Yeah,
he's just a grumpy old man. But with me, he's
not grumpy at me.

Speaker 22 (01:41:35):
He's just so so loyal. He looks a bit raggy taggy.

Speaker 17 (01:41:39):
But.

Speaker 27 (01:41:43):
We all do when we get a bit old, you know. Yeah, yeah, so,
but very very loyal creature for sure.

Speaker 3 (01:41:50):
Nice stuff, Judie, Thank you so much for that. It's
nine away from eleven with you or twelve Jim Sned
and Steed and Steen will be along at twelve seven
away from eleven o'clock.

Speaker 2 (01:42:01):
People.

Speaker 3 (01:42:02):
Now we're having had a break from the Middle East tonight,
it seems because people haven't got their hot reckons tonight.
And that is fine. But if there is something you
want to say about that too, if you feel we
are ignoring that, then that is good. Well that is
you can come through and talk about that. We just
turn bit more here in the headphones. Where is my review?
There we go. That's better. Black's English staffy four year

(01:42:25):
old male best breed, real overy, smart, don't back for
no reason, massively misunderstood, wouldn't have any other breed had
a black Lamber's name is Ryder, but died and now
up in heaven to say on light? What do they say?
They're going to heaven? Dogs they cross the rainbow or something,
don't they always thought that was a bit odd. Gooday,
we had a Burmese Mountain of Bernese Berneese like the
sauce of Bernese mountain dog. What a great dog she was.

(01:42:47):
When she left us, the house felt so empty my
son wanted a replacement, so we've got a leon Burger.
My mate had one and he said she will put
on a kilo of weight each week for the first year.
I thought he was having a laugh, but he was right.
A year later we had a fifty two kilo puppy jeepers.
Give her an egg, she will take it outside and
eat it and come back for another. Mine loves eggs

(01:43:07):
to a week dogs of eggs, I said. We had
to crack them easily and scoff up the raw egg.
Not much love for the FG and hound, but you
don't hear about them much. Party poodles are different colors?

Speaker 1 (01:43:17):
Is that?

Speaker 3 (01:43:17):
Lady? Says my completely black when he came back from
two party poodles, but still a pure bread.

Speaker 8 (01:43:23):
There you go.

Speaker 3 (01:43:24):
That's the plan, plan of attack for the night. Then
we get into the loose hour, loosey goosey and if
you want to be part of that way, boy, oh boy,
have I got the offer for you. Fourteen nil Melbourne
over Brisbane. Brisbane looks like they'll be going zero from three.
Remember they were last year's champion team and the team

(01:43:45):
hasn't changed that much. Same coach, same superstars, res Walsh,
Pat Carriger. They're still all there, but something's gone on
for them. What that is, I don't know. I couldn't
tell you. For away from eleven, Saudi Arabia is threatening
to attack a rug and retaliation for strikes on Golf
State since the start of the US the Ruddy War

(01:44:05):
with to run. So that's happening. There's always talk and
Donald Trump has called for US forces to open a
new front in Iran as jets pound Iranian ships and
in all out battle to reopen the Strait of Hormootes.
American forces sent low flying a ten war hogs and
apatche attack helicopters to shoot an Iranian ships and drones.

(01:44:26):
The Pentagon is trying to nullify danger from Iranian weapons
and reopen the strait, which is seen only about ninety
ships crossed since the war began. The belief is that
US military warships could act as an escort for ships
to get in and out of the region through the strait.
Might look all right on paper, the reality is somewhat different.
Email if you've got them also tonight, Marcus, I got one.

(01:44:51):
I think we've had that one. That the SPCA is special,
but thank you for that. And oh and white border
collies who should never be in a city. There are
rural farm dogs and poodles are the smartest dogs. Afghans
are by far the most clueless. I got a little
coogy girl after the bread was finished, breading with her willow.
Lillian is the sweetest thing ever. And the Saturday Night's

(01:45:12):
Special whatever that means. The match between the Brumbies and
the Chiefs. That's in Canberra. It's now twenty four all
and there's ten minutes to go. That one's gone, that
one's tightened right up. So there we go and the
Brisbane and Brisbane Sex Melbourne fourteen in the hour. We
are talking dogs. Anything you want to talk about for
this final hour. Yeah, that's not a problem. David's Marcus,

(01:45:34):
thanks for calling. Good evening, Yeah, good evening to you.

Speaker 25 (01:45:37):
Good to hear you on. It's still a little bit
too soon for me to talk. I lost so I
put in my head to get me little dog multi shits,
who put down eighteen months ago.

Speaker 19 (01:45:46):
And I still feel more about it. I still missed
a little fellow. I walked him every day.

Speaker 25 (01:45:50):
And yeah, but I won't mention any more about that
because they are dogs are a massive commitment. But I'll
tell you what, in your life, they are a fantastic companion.
There's no tw ways about it. Now the US is
I think the plane is here. I think in Iran
it's gone past the point of diplomas, especially on certainly

(01:46:11):
on their side.

Speaker 19 (01:46:12):
I don't think they're going to come to the table.

Speaker 25 (01:46:14):
After Ali Kamana and his family pretty much apart from
the sun has been killed by the US strikes. Now
USS Tripoli is coming, is on its way to the
straight up hor moves, and I think it's going to
put marines on the ground and certainly within two hundred

(01:46:35):
nautical miles of having these F twenty two fighter jets
on target quite rather than the major assets, which is
the US aircraft carriers which are out of five hundred
nautical miles, because the triple he won't be such a
great loss as opposed to the aircraft carriers. Now, I

(01:46:59):
think this is the only way is to put boots
on the ground of the stage, because as I say,
I don't think I run on this current regime is
going to come to the party. Did you see Marcus
where there was three protesters executed today?

Speaker 3 (01:47:14):
I did watch that Yes, I did see that.

Speaker 25 (01:47:17):
You see.

Speaker 19 (01:47:19):
What was going to say?

Speaker 11 (01:47:20):
Now, the.

Speaker 25 (01:47:24):
That's how they get met as with gunfire and machine
gun fire.

Speaker 2 (01:47:28):
This current regime.

Speaker 25 (01:47:30):
While while the son is the La Kamani's sons taking
it does not now getting onto Brisbane, Broncos it does
not surprise.

Speaker 3 (01:47:40):
I just just go back to that we talk about
if there's going to be a negotiated peace, if you
were Iranian and Iranian leader and putting aside you know
how you've treated your people. But if you were someone
that was responsible for the decisions for the ninety Iranians,
would you trust negotiating with Trump? Because I wouldn't trust

(01:48:01):
him for a ninch because he always he always changes
what he said. He's going to do.

Speaker 25 (01:48:06):
What's best for you in your country and what's best
for the Middle East. But these Iranian Tango Marcus, these
Iranians are fanatical.

Speaker 3 (01:48:16):
What I'm saying is you couldn't guarantee Trump would do
what is it he's going to do.

Speaker 25 (01:48:20):
I believe Trump more than i'd believe Kahmane, and I
think that for them is the best option by far,
rather than picking on Kuwait, Doha, etc. And sad brings
Saudi Arabia because what this is going to lead to you,
mark my words, is pretty much the distraction of the infrastructure,
pipelines and massive oil reserves that keep the heart blood

(01:48:46):
of Iran.

Speaker 3 (01:48:47):
There would have been a good reason not to start it, then,
wouldn't it.

Speaker 4 (01:48:50):
Well, it should not have.

Speaker 25 (01:48:52):
The thing was Trump missed his opportunity with taking out
the Kamani regime in the total he should have, and
he missed the opportunity because he left the son alive.
I think that's pretty much to March now. Prisidon Broncos
are quickie if I can. It does not surprise me
that they will be three and oh, because I think

(01:49:15):
for mine while I might have a bit of sour grapes.
And they're beating Penrith because of course Pendriff panthers to
go away again for the fifth peniership. But it seems
to me they only pull it out of the big games.
At the big games and then the year.

Speaker 3 (01:49:34):
I haven't seen much of it, but Riswash does appear
to be quiet today from what I can see. I
remember the game when they beat Canberram.

Speaker 25 (01:49:41):
Years yes, and I remember the game when they beat
Penrith as well.

Speaker 6 (01:49:45):
Goodness me.

Speaker 25 (01:49:47):
They anyhow, I thought I'd phone in and give him
my two bobs with and yeah, little Teddy rest in peace,
made I still miss you.

Speaker 3 (01:49:55):
Nice to hear from you, Dave. You've got another text
that in that vein. I had a wonderful doll. He
protected anyone who was asleep. I lived alone and always
felt safe. He was a border Collie corgy cross. He
lived for nineteen years. It broke my heart to put
him down. I'll never have another dog. I couldn't go
through the pain of losing a dog again. Watching an

(01:50:16):
RL tonight, Penalth showed their worth of being a Panthers
against the Roosters. There's a new dup there's a new
dipping sauce at KFC in Australia and you can only
get it if your name is Duncan. That's what the
play of humor they've done there. So if you're going
to be Dunk and your nuggets and the sauce, you've
got to be called Duncan. You get it for free.
I don't think it's a thing here. It's called liquid

(01:50:38):
Gold sauce. It's for Duncan. The chicken in doesn't look
that appealing color wise.

Speaker 2 (01:50:45):
There you go.

Speaker 3 (01:50:46):
It could be your first name, your middle ami, your
surname is Duncan, and you get the free sauce. There's
also going to set a record for the most Duncans
gathered in one place. Yeap, Oh, well, you don't have
many people called Duncan these days. It's not a pop,
it's a name going out of it to be like Wayne,
it's on its way out. I think, Andrew, this is Marcus. Welcome,
good evening.

Speaker 2 (01:51:06):
How you doing good?

Speaker 3 (01:51:07):
Thank you, Andrew. How are you doing all right?

Speaker 11 (01:51:09):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:51:10):
Yeah, not too bad? Oh, trumpies war. I have never
seen anything like it. It's truly bizarre. It is truly bizarre.
This makes Vietnam look organized. And it's just all the nonsense,

(01:51:33):
like the you know, the Iranian the Israelis hit that
gas field and all of a sudden there was a
lot of blowback, and Pump comes out and goes, look,
we didn't know anything about it. That is just aaronson.

Speaker 21 (01:51:52):
You've got US.

Speaker 2 (01:51:54):
Planes flying hither and thither over Iran and they're trying
to tell us that, you know, the Israelis are sending
missiles through it and noting the Americans what's going on.
It's just nonsense. It's just absolute nonsense.

Speaker 3 (01:52:13):
It's going to it's going to give us something to
It's going to give us something to study in the
years to come, because it all just seems, Yeah, it's
going to be amazingly quite straightforward to study, isn't it.

Speaker 14 (01:52:22):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:52:23):
From Pete HeiG Seth's unhinged bread conferences, I've never seen
anything like it again he ever go at the media
out there the other did because you know they're they're
printing the truth. You know, it was it was just surreal.
I was listening to a guy today, Anthony Scaramucci, who

(01:52:47):
he's served in Trump's first administration, and Scaramucci reckoned that
the Israelis tried to get Trump to do this in
the first in his first administration, but he had you know,
sensible military people around in it just to talked him

(01:53:07):
out of it and said, look your nuts. But because
at the moment now that you know, it's like clown college,
that the cabinet that he's got and just the people
that are around him, and he reckons that Karamuci reckons
that the Israelis went to him with Lindsey Graham, who
is that that's unhind Senator who seems to think he's

(01:53:29):
on some sort of Bronze Age crusade. And they sold
it to him, and they said, look, you know the
Israeli their moment was the Sixth Day War, you know,
and they're saying, this could be your Sixth Day War.
You're going to go down in history. You know that
all the other American presidents have been cowers and didn't

(01:53:52):
do this, but you're going to go down as history
as the guy that did it. And because they're just
you know, telling Trump what he wants to hear, he
went with it. And it's just a disaster. It's just
an absolute disaster. You know. They're talking about landing troops
on on the east, on the Iranian post there, so

(01:54:14):
they can't have a go at the tankers.

Speaker 3 (01:54:16):
You wouldn't, Andrew, you wouldn't want to. You wouldn't want
to be one of those troops.

Speaker 2 (01:54:21):
Well, it's going to make you a jama look like
a Sunday school picnic. The Iranians are just sitting there
waiting for them to turn up. And they're not amongst
those Iranians, they're armed to the teeth. You know, You've
got these poor marines are going to it's words fail me.
Words absolutely fail me, as I've never seen anything like it.

(01:54:45):
But I can't see how is going to get out
of it there?

Speaker 3 (01:54:50):
I can't. I can't see h play. And it's and
you don't if you don't know why you got in,
you don't know when you're going to get out. That's
the other thing. He's got no off ramp because he
didn't know why he went and he thought he had
a hunch, but obviously he was a puppet of you
know who knows quite why went in.

Speaker 2 (01:55:04):
But well, I I think he has sold the story,
you know that they I think it's a bit like
the Russians with Ukrainians. I think they were thinking, if
we take out take out comany, take out the leadership,
the whole thing.

Speaker 3 (01:55:18):
Will just fall over. That's never worked anywhere else.

Speaker 2 (01:55:21):
Well, no, I mean that it was the idea of
the Russians and that didn't work.

Speaker 8 (01:55:25):
No.

Speaker 19 (01:55:26):
Then, but now he's he can't just say oh, that's it.

Speaker 3 (01:55:31):
Otherwise it's not in his nature because he's really thin
skinned for criticism and be huge amount. I mean, he
can't do anything that's going to avoid No, he has
to have a win. He has to be able to
and a win is not possible.

Speaker 2 (01:55:48):
No, no, not not without losing twenty thousand troops on
the on the shores of Iran.

Speaker 3 (01:55:58):
Yeah, it's a nice synopsis you've made of it, Andrew,
thank you for that. Good evening, Donald, this is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 2 (01:56:05):
Hi.

Speaker 28 (01:56:05):
I just wonder if anybody has memories or worked out
the famous or infamous Shannon nylon factory. It was rather
unique between nineteen sixty four and sixty seven in southern Manumatu.
You wouldn't know anything about it, would you.

Speaker 3 (01:56:21):
The Shannon nylon factory.

Speaker 28 (01:56:24):
Yeah, it set up by a gent called Ralph von Cohorn.
He was like a German baron, and he set up
a nylon factory. Needed to have water close by, and
they built a concrete building in a small town of
Shannon next to the Manamatu River. And it operated from
about nineteen sixty four sixty five, so sixty seven. It
wasn't a success.

Speaker 3 (01:56:43):
And that was the raw materials was it just the
water and the staff later.

Speaker 19 (01:56:49):
I had to have water. It had to have water.

Speaker 28 (01:56:51):
I don't think about the production of nylon. Their deenure
or whatever they made was not the type that was
neededn't it. It didn't make it wasn't a success, and
the A and Z bank walked in about sixty seven
and thenne to do that, according to someone in business
at the time, and basically sold it off for to
him and thirty nine pounds that would have been just
for decimal currency. They apparently did that with a standard
insurance company. Anyway, there be local Shannonites that may.

Speaker 2 (01:57:14):
Have worked there.

Speaker 28 (01:57:14):
Did operate for a couple of years, and they bought
out from engineers, a couple of German couples from Germany,
a couple from Argentina, and the production manager came and
his family came out from South Carolina because they have
rented a house and my parents for a couple of years,
and I sort of knew some of the people, well
it just administration part. I met some of them obviously

(01:57:37):
because they lived.

Speaker 21 (01:57:37):
In the area.

Speaker 28 (01:57:38):
But it closed down in sixty seven. The building still there.
It became a film hungry but Ralph von Cowan lived
in retirement in Wellington until about ten years ago. Is
apparently quite wealthy and his wife was quite titled lady actually,
so I'm not sure in what respect, and he was
German Austrian.

Speaker 6 (01:57:57):
I think he lived a pretty good age.

Speaker 3 (01:57:58):
And why did he come to Why did the baron
come to New Zealand.

Speaker 28 (01:58:04):
I have a history of his life that was part
written in the Post about ten years ago. I'd have
to find that it was a brief history.

Speaker 7 (01:58:10):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (01:58:11):
But anyway, he came to New Zealand and liked it
and decided to set up this industry. He involved with
something similar in California and brought these people out and
basically set it up. It wasn't success, but local people
were to work there.

Speaker 28 (01:58:24):
I've never been in the building.

Speaker 20 (01:58:25):
It's still there.

Speaker 28 (01:58:25):
It's a big, solid concrete looking thing. I think it's
only for storage now. But it was just one of
those unique things that were set up and didn't quite
make it. There will be local Shannonites and people in
there that work there.

Speaker 3 (01:58:35):
Went but Donald to make nylon. It's a petrochemical thing,
isn't it.

Speaker 19 (01:58:41):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:58:41):
I think so.

Speaker 22 (01:58:43):
So.

Speaker 3 (01:58:43):
I don't know why you would have done it in Shannon,
but yeah, I guess.

Speaker 28 (01:58:46):
Well he did. He did, yeah, and he had experience
in the States with and doing that inside the set
of plant here. I came to live in New Zealand.
I think he probably sorted out the industry.

Speaker 19 (01:58:56):
You know, I think he was big.

Speaker 3 (01:58:58):
I think he might have been big on boating too.
That's maybe why he came here.

Speaker 28 (01:59:03):
He certainly stayed in New Zealand and retirement. Died in
early two thousands Wellington anyway, But people might remember the plant.
I didn't go in, and I knew some of the administrative.

Speaker 3 (01:59:13):
Why have you been thinking about that today?

Speaker 11 (01:59:18):
I don't know.

Speaker 28 (01:59:18):
I've got recall of it. I just know they came
out here. I remember the name of the engineers like
Marinson's and Lyndouts and Dipoles on that, and the Wards
went back to South Carolina. And I found a son
of one of them in nineteen eighty when I went
to America. So I was told he lived in Winston,
Salem and North Carolina. Took a bus there in New
York over night and phoned him up and found him
and spoke to him. After fifteen years, he lives in

(01:59:40):
Southwest Virginia now and work for Sherwin William's paint factory.
That's all at paint shops. That's all I can tell you.

Speaker 3 (01:59:48):
Nice to hear from me, Donald, Thank you. Twenty nine
to twelve. The Marines heading there as the bait in
the trap. If they attack them, it's all on like
Donkey Kong. If they let them through and challenged, they'll
take the oil island. I used to have a bet
at hound who had the longest is. Every time I
caught him for his dinner, he would come bouncing along

(02:00:09):
and then stop of a sudden start whimpering. It was
because as poorses sound as easy and he couldn't move.
Cute but funny, Marcus. Quick question before beard. I saw
a Japanese ad while watching the cricket on TV for
some drink called one nine six? Any idea what it is?
Never heard of it? One nine six? Why would there

(02:00:29):
be a Japanese add or was it set in Japan?
Suntori one nine sex or minus one nine sex is
a popular Japanese ready to drink alcoholic beverage known for
its freeze crush. In fuge technology, whole fruits are flesh
frozen at minus one nine six, crushed into powder and
infused with vodka, shoshe and soda. Six to nine percent

(02:00:51):
do the job. So could Artie? Do you get at
liquor Land to shop from your store? You need to
be over eighteen a over eighteen. Yes, straight from Tokyo's
Neon streets to your friends. Japan's cult RTD looks fantastic

(02:01:15):
for anyone who's wanted shibuyah at night, rating convenience store fridges,
chasing the extreme Japanese spirit with a cold minus one
nine six a hand. This is your taste of nostalgia
in a can. It's crafted for those who are as
bold and unapologetic as a liquid inside the can. Gosh,

(02:01:35):
what rubbish? Anyway, it looks good. Lemon, grape or peach
six percent. I'd go with lemon.

Speaker 2 (02:01:43):
There you go.

Speaker 3 (02:01:46):
It's got frozen powder of drinking. It always something new
to try and get the kids drinking in. Well, of
course people aren't drinking, so they're desperate to get them
back onto something. Scott, this is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 17 (02:02:04):
Oh, good morning, Marcus.

Speaker 3 (02:02:05):
Morning.

Speaker 17 (02:02:06):
Got we're talking about dogs.

Speaker 3 (02:02:08):
Yes, yes, yes, we used to have a Rothweiler.

Speaker 19 (02:02:12):
Well Rock Viler.

Speaker 3 (02:02:14):
He's back in the nineties, the eighteen nineties.

Speaker 17 (02:02:20):
No, we moved out to Rangurura to get away from
christ Chets for a while, so we had the dog there.
I became unemployed and I was spent at home most
of the time. So me and when we mate. His

(02:02:41):
name was Khan after Emmerang Khan. Girlfriend at the time
had a crash on him. Good looking man and we
used to go out on adventures and I've never seen
a dog.

Speaker 2 (02:03:00):
He was kind.

Speaker 17 (02:03:01):
He was almost like a grandfather, which is strange to say.
But when we're around children, around people, he was just stolid.
He would just sit there and guard them the whole time.
He was a wonderful, wonderful dog. And he died and

(02:03:27):
that sort of broke my heart away a bit. But
they come and go, and I just like to say,
thank you, Cam for everything you.

Speaker 19 (02:03:36):
Did for me.

Speaker 3 (02:03:37):
What sort of avenures would you go on?

Speaker 17 (02:03:39):
Oh, we'd go out running around the countryside. It was
wearing aura, so you know, it wasn't confined to the city.
He used to love swimming, so we'd go down the creek.
Keep an eye on him because he was a bit silly,
and keep an eye on him so he didn't droan

(02:04:00):
or anything. And little old ladies used to come up
to them all the time and they were pet him
with her fear. You know, you just had this thing
about him because.

Speaker 3 (02:04:13):
The rock violers having not the best reputation, I mean
anyone says the lovely dogs, but they have had a
reputation has been a menacing kind of an animal.

Speaker 17 (02:04:21):
Yeah, well that movie The Yeomen came out.

Speaker 3 (02:04:25):
No, that's terrifying in that Yeah, running up and down
the hall, weren't they? That's right, I remember that now.

Speaker 17 (02:04:31):
Yeah, he was my friend, you know, he was a
good maid. And I just wanted to put that out there.

Speaker 3 (02:04:38):
I like the way you said you became unemployed, like
it was a career option.

Speaker 17 (02:04:43):
Well it turned out to be.

Speaker 19 (02:04:46):
I just wanted to be.

Speaker 3 (02:04:48):
Did you get hit? Did you get hit hunted?

Speaker 7 (02:04:52):

Speaker 17 (02:04:53):
No, no, Cam would have taken care of the head hunters.

Speaker 3 (02:04:58):

Hi Marcus, Hi Richard. I've got an American Staffy Cross
border Collie.

Speaker 8 (02:05:15):
Wow.

Speaker 29 (02:05:16):
And the reason why I rang up was because about
half an hour ago you had a text to a
caller who's had a Border Collie cross. Yes, and I've
had a bit to do with Staffy's, but given the
border Collie cross, she's just beautiful.

Speaker 3 (02:05:33):
Good I've had it's not a common mixes it.

Speaker 2 (02:05:36):

ten years old.

Speaker 19 (02:05:44):

Speaker 29 (02:05:45):
I got her when she was eighteen loss of a
family member, and as soon as she saw me after
eighteen sorry eighteen.

Speaker 3 (02:05:54):
Months, Oh it makes more sense.

Speaker 29 (02:05:55):
Yeah, okay, I got her when she was eighteen months,
so she's about ten now, and with my relative died,
she just came straight up at me. The next day,
we all got together to commiserate, and I actually never
met her, and this dog came straight at me. There's

(02:06:15):
twelve people sitting around in her room, what commiserating and
this dog walks in split second straight at me and
jumped on me.

Speaker 6 (02:06:25):
So, you know, we.

Speaker 29 (02:06:29):
The whole wake and all that took a few days
and then I wasn't in any position really to have
a dog. But the way she introduced herself.

Speaker 19 (02:06:40):
To me, and.

Speaker 29 (02:06:42):
The last eight years, she's pretty much I saved my arm.

Speaker 3 (02:06:49):
Great. Does she look more like a collie or a staffy?

Speaker 29 (02:06:53):
Everybody goes off staffy, but what she mixed with and
she's got four white paws and a white collar, you know,
the whole border colligue.

Speaker 3 (02:07:02):
He's got the collie nose. Or the Steffie nose, Staffie nose.

Speaker 29 (02:07:06):
She's kind of got in the eyes and that a
little bit of as we get the border of Collie
and she's got a little bit of lab with her
as well.

Speaker 6 (02:07:14):
But yeah, and.

Speaker 3 (02:07:18):
Your good temperament.

Speaker 29 (02:07:20):
Very that's I think the border Collie's gonna I mean,
I've seen people cross the road and she's been on.

Speaker 19 (02:07:28):
The lead and all that.

Speaker 29 (02:07:30):

Together, the two men trigger the largest tax investigation in American history and weave around themselves a web of dirty cops, influential political relationships and transnational money laundering.
