Speaker 1 (00:07):
You're listening to the Marcus lush Night's podcast from News Talks.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
A'd be.

Speaker 3 (00:14):
Greetings, good evening, Welcome to Monday, are Marcus. Hope it's
good where you are. Welcome to the third to last
Monday of September. I think I've got that one right.
I hope it's all going well. We're your If it's
not going well, I hope it gets better by midnight.
And here we are again. It's all about the All
Blacks four. What about Gregor Paul's yee he takes the

(00:34):
highs and the lives, but it doesn't he boy oh boy.
Now it's like it was last week. It was all fantastic.
Now it's all Helena Hanker and basket cheap as creepers.
I wonder who'll last longer, the All Blacks coach or
the Prime minister. I mean realistic, it's a fair question.
I'm not saying anyone's going to go soon, but you know,
I wonder how long Robinson's got, how long Luxon has gone.

(00:56):
He'll go first. She has an extraordinary sport on the weekend.
The women playing South Africa. South Africa are amazing. In
that first half they checked the half back in the lineout.
For that, the whole team in the lineout and the
level pegging the whole first half. It was tremendous to watch.
And of course last night's rugby league match against canbur

(01:18):
and the Broncos, Wow wow wow will have been a
tough day for Ricky Stewart. Cheap as creepers. Canbra Is
celebrated winning twice. Pretty extraordinary. Southland Stags not so good.
Not as many tune up for it wasn't a bad

(01:40):
evening or after doing at Rugby Park. Less of the
food trucks. The guy with the South African sausage wasn't there,
but anyway he wasn't a great performance for Southland think
for I think the crowd were key to see Sevarice
have a bit of a run round, but didn't seem
to be happening for him in the back line. But

(02:01):
that's all right, they'll come right for next week. I've
got great confidence against Tasman. I feel free to come
through the numbers eight hundred and eighty, ten eighty and
nine nine to text. I read all those columns about
the All Blacks. You know what went wrong? No one
really knows. They say we've got this unpredictable nature that
we've got to perfect daft old game. No won't. No

(02:25):
one can plain about the anthems. I think anthems with
choirs pacifica choirs. That seems to be the way to
do it. Two very good successive weeks with the anthems,
long way that last. Any who here til twelve of
you want to partake in the show, First and foremost,
what is goodness? So the pieces though Whates is going

(02:49):
to stop canning peaches locally because the imported peaches are cheaper.
Could someone talk to me about the canned fruit and
what you buy. I'm not much of a label gazer,
but to compare, if you're buying peaches, what else would
you buy? Is it sp K or something? Could you
talked about tin peaches because the next thing, you know,

(03:12):
it's gonna be the black doris plums. Oh march to
parliament if they get rid of the black doris plums
tin because they're extraordinary. But yeah, what he seems to
have dropped the ball. They've got no passion. I'm just
looking what the other peaches might be. It saysn't the
article us any here or that they're actually being challenged
by cheaper stuff coming from overseas. I see Woolworth's got

(03:35):
a brand, Walworth's peaches sliced in juices. Where would they
come from? Would they come from Madura? Our product of China? Chinese?
So it's Chinese peaches. Yeah, So what do we want better?
Do we want New Zealand peaches or Chinese peatures? That's
the ones from Woolworth. Then there's another one, god of

(03:55):
essential peaches and syrup about this product. Duram request doesn't
say where they're from, and someone else said they've seen
something they come from South Africa. Some people say there's
not much sure up in them. But it seems though,
what is what's wrong with us that we can't compete,

(04:15):
that we can't make ten peaches as cheap as ones?
That is it just cheap labor? Maybe I'm right, Maybe
that's the answer. Someone also has texted me an email
from Vancouver. I'm residing in Vancouver and I'm happy to
see the produce from back home in my local Safeway supermarket.

(04:36):
I did some checking. I found it cheaper here than
in New Zealand. Gala Apples, Golden Delicious, Envy Apples all
in Canada. All cheaper half a world away. So the
apples are cheaper and now we can't care well. And
it wouldn't be a bad thing canning the not canning

(04:57):
the peaches and hawks ba if we had them cheaper
in the supermarket. But what they're going to do is
just rip rip out the trees, so we will get
no more can but we will get no more fresh peaches.
It just won't be a thing that would be what
I suspect. It's a great employer at Hawk's Bay, is
what he's Also they employ big numbers, so that's the story.

(05:19):
It's going overseas for its peaches, a commitment to reduced
canned peaches out of Hawke's Bay. What he's owned by
craft Hinds. Crafty Hinds all right, because the headquarters in
Napier Hastings rather employs hundreds of staff. I think they

(05:42):
tin the peas too, do they? So I want to
talk about tin fruit. So yeah, it's all of our
faults because we're all the cheapest stuff from China and
South Africa and Moldovia. We should have bought local canned.

(06:03):
I don't know if we should have or not. Have
you ever seen the conditions of a canning fruit overseas,
I haven't. They could be for every good. I've never
seen the conditions of a canning fruit us in in either.
By the way, just since I've got the talking stick,
there have been some special moments at this rugby tournament
in England that gets no coverage. One of the English

(06:25):
players right, who's a crowcheer. She crocheted whistles for the
three referees from her match. The touch judge is and
they're ref There's a delightful spirit there. They're all mates,
the refs, the players. It's like a carnival. That woman

(06:50):
from America is always in the crowd or is she
from Canada? Drinking two drinks at once. It's a great
show anyway. So that's the discussion for tonight is the
tin fruit, millions of pizzas. The other thing that we'll
talk about tonight is it seems as though the economies
are hard fixed, but the government's going to have to
go out fixing entertainment and they're going to try and

(07:15):
loosen up the laws around need and Park so you
can have more concerts more often and go later and
be noisier. I know that on this show There has
been a lot of snarky comments about the people around
Mount Eden Eden Park and they're five million dollar villas,

(07:38):
but realistically will they get that through? And what acts
haven't we got there that we could have there? When
you only go see cold Play every so often in Pink,
you want to go and see them yearly?

Speaker 4 (07:49):
Do you?

Speaker 3 (07:50):
I think probably we do quite well for the concerts
considering the size of the audience that we've got. But
if you want to comment on Eden Park, what you
think needs to change? Were there any bands anymore? Bands
don't form as just solo artists. I don't know who's
going to be touring in ten years. We'll be sick

(08:11):
of Coldplay that by then, will we not? And Pink?
I don't know the answer to these questions. I'm just
putting it out there. Sixteen past eight, the number is
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty Marcus. We discovered anthems
would best sung by choirs, and the All Blacks aren't
as good as they used to be. The team failed

(08:32):
to fire that sport. I agree about the plums. I
always buy the Watties ones. Thank you for that. How
could a team fail to fire someone in one of
the many columns read, I said that there was too
much sort of yeapy from the all Blacks, too much
sort of sledging and stuff. I didn't see that, So
get in touch, Marcus. The Canbra Brisbane game has to

(08:56):
be one of the best playoff games ever. Was certainly exciting. Wow,
got milk, they're into that the milk on the sponsorship,
Aren't they cheapest screepers. We're in a sad, cold night
and can ruh one man's show. They've seen Old Kerrigan
and Reese walshin Off for ten minutes together. They are
in the dress room, no TV. They just said, oh,

(09:18):
go out there, we'll win this, and they did. Brett,
this is Marcus welcome.

Speaker 5 (09:27):
Yeah, Marcus A just one thing it's going to be said.
Bob Dylan said it so well. Uh, and it's the
times they change.

Speaker 3 (09:40):
I was trying to I'm trying to think I'm talking.

Speaker 5 (09:43):
I'm trying to think he could be talking about the
candid teachers or a team of so called all black
exercisement bro good night man.

Speaker 3 (09:53):
I thought you're gonna talk about only the good day,
young bread. When it came to the I was trying
to think what pop Dylan song. Is he going to mention?

Speaker 4 (10:03):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (10:03):
Have the times they change? My seeming to go through
this every year and then we kind of settled for
less and reconcise as oh well we've you know, we
lose a couple where we win one. I think Jeep
as creepers, like the cat that's got the cream. But
I think generally the World Cup in England looks like
it's generally going to be exciting that we play Canada
in England. Go on and play forget who they play.

(10:24):
But she's a very good match, good atmosphere at the field,
and great spirit that the game seems to be played in.
But anyway, I know that a lot of people, but
Little Prickly there hasn't got enough coverage. But it's surprising
that that's had so little coverage. It was such a
success in New Zealand three years ago. Think it's three years.
I think it might have been delayed for COVID. It

(10:45):
might have been four years ago. So I apologize if
I'm wrong. I do come through. If you want to
talk about this eight hundred and eighty to Eden Park.
Who should come? That hasn't come? I don't know what
I mean, the only thing I can think is we
get the Nral Magic Round, because there's money for that.
By the way, the other team, of course is France
France England. That'll be next Sunday, and the other one
is he's in in Canada, so hopefully it'll be in

(11:06):
New Zealand final. That would be exciting. It might not
be because rugby is an evolving game. Evolve and win.
So peaches and watties. Anyone working at what is I
like to know what it's like to get free peaches.
I suppose you probably don't, but I'll be interested in
that also tonight, just just because it's one of my

(11:30):
favorite topics. Some foods tinned the food's improved. Peaches aren't
one of those foods. I'd never really buy tin peaches.
I think food that tastes fantastic tinned is black doris plums,
South African guavas pears always good. Not too long ago,

(11:52):
I've found a tin of to make a tin grapefry.
This were very nice. Tin peach is not that good.
Apricots too sweet. You really see tin napples, but yeah,
there we go. One's tried tin kiwi fruit. Will that
be a good thing. Maybe it would be. Maybe that's
what they're going to pick pivot into with their side pivot.

(12:15):
I'll wait one hundred and eighty ten eighty Come on,
and who lasts longer, the Prime Minister, the all black
coach that we should go there. I'm not saying any
of them are gonna go anytimes similar. I wonder who's
going to be around for the longest. I'd say probably
be your neck and neck. There'd be my predictions for that, Marcus,

(12:35):
what is peaches? Three dollars forty nine? Will with peaches
biggest cat, bigger can a dollar eighty nine. It's it's
a nob brainer, no brainer. Even what eating what is
all my life? But found Heinz Baked beans instead of
what he's too. It's about savings for me. I think
Heinz Baked Beans and what is Baked Beans would be
the same because they're the same company. Marcus. On your

(12:57):
next for the suit, mak have a closer look at
the ingredient in the musally section. Every fruit you can
think of has been dehydrated and you musually share and
music bars. Even black doss plums are in center terms granola. Wow,
it's definitely hard to see whooping the all blacks got given?
But how fantastic is that everyone has the chance to

(13:18):
win these? John, this is Marcus, Welcome to the airwaves.

Speaker 6 (13:24):
Good evening, gnat features.

Speaker 7 (13:27):
Yes, please what least three sixty normally three dollars last week?

Speaker 8 (13:33):
Wow?

Speaker 7 (13:35):
South African stastasat a dollar eighty five? So I think
there is which I buy ten to fifteen tins at
a time. I would eat four tins a week.

Speaker 3 (13:47):
Did you say spetic.

Speaker 7 (13:50):
Sthetically? They don't have discounts, So I thought.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
That, John, I thought that was the brand. I thought
you said they were called spatic Aesthetic. Okay, the price
is fixed? What what's their what's the handle? What are
they called?

Speaker 2 (14:02):
You know?

Speaker 7 (14:04):
Oh? Countdown features?

Speaker 3 (14:07):
Yeah, I understand. I think.

Speaker 7 (14:13):
I don't touch them though, he's too solid. But there
might be only about five cents less than the South
African Will.

Speaker 3 (14:20):
There be much difference between the South African ones and
the Watties ones? Are they? Apparently?

Speaker 7 (14:24):
No? Now this is the next. If it's a small,
small fruit, there isn't a pap tighter and there's very
little juice. But if the big slices, there's a lot
of juice and of course there is a weight amount
they've got to have, and I find that South African

(14:45):
are quite acceptable against what he is. I've bought the
wadi is now and again at three dollars and really
can't tell the difference.

Speaker 3 (14:53):
So you're definitely South Africa's a no brainer.

Speaker 7 (14:55):
I go through to at least four tens a week.

Speaker 3 (14:58):
And tell me how you're having those with cereal? What
are you doing with them?

Speaker 7 (15:01):
I have them straight out of the tin. Yes, I
drink the juice, Yes, pour it into a dish. Where
have half a liter a half lid of cream, just
bottle and step it on it some of it and
like that, peach. I cut them all up into pieces

(15:22):
well before the cream goes on. I slight, you know,
chop them with the spoon.

Speaker 3 (15:27):
And then you have cream on top of that and.

Speaker 7 (15:29):
Cream on top of it. Because they're too long, but
I try and eat them with them complete. So I
chop them into half or three.

Speaker 3 (15:37):
Yeah, just one more question, John, Once you've.

Speaker 7 (15:40):
Cut hammer actually, so I live in so.

Speaker 3 (15:44):
Once you've cut them, so you're once you've cut them,
and once you've drunk the juice and cut them into
half the bits and then put the cream on right. Yeah,
do then eat them with a spoon or a fork.

Speaker 7 (15:56):
Spoon with a with a with a bib, a spoon
that always drops the cream underneath.

Speaker 9 (16:08):
Well how about that?

Speaker 3 (16:10):
Do you like your peachres?

Speaker 10 (16:12):
I do?

Speaker 7 (16:13):
I don't any other fruit? Pineapple? I have pineapple a
dollar seventy four. I think it is. Again, then we're
worth saying. I have that, maybe only one and every
eight days.

Speaker 3 (16:29):
How do how do it the pineapple? Do you have
crushed pieces or rings?

Speaker 7 (16:33):
It's pieces? And drink the deuce first, tip it into
a bowl, pour the cream over the same as peaches
put and.

Speaker 3 (16:42):
As the cream whipped all just out of.

Speaker 7 (16:43):
The bottle, straight out of the bottle.

Speaker 3 (16:46):
Wow, you know what you like? And I appreciate that.

Speaker 11 (16:48):
A week.

Speaker 7 (16:52):
I'm sitting in hospital for sure. I've got dumb ulcers
on the big toes that won't he know. I haven't
been told. I'm eighty eighty three, and I've been told
that they will be fixed when I die. They have
talked about chopping start chopping the leagues off it.

Speaker 3 (17:14):
They said to you, They said to you, your toes
will be fixed when you die.

Speaker 7 (17:18):
And three nurses have years they will never heal.

Speaker 3 (17:24):
So it's a It's a weird choice of word, isn't it.

Speaker 8 (17:27):
I know.

Speaker 7 (17:27):
I've looked at that up on Google and it says
it's one of the worst healing thing you've got. And
I'm fighting tape bandages thruse of mine water tablets versus
the toes stay wet for hours and hours and hours
and the other leagu's got two great big horses on

(17:47):
them that's been These are two years now. Wow, so
oh good luck that four months ago.

Speaker 3 (17:57):
When do you expect to be at a hospital tomorrow? Great,
that's good news. Bag bag home for the peatures to
celebrate or pineapples to my.

Speaker 7 (18:05):
Two care amiens and features.

Speaker 3 (18:09):
Yeah, at my point, living the dream, John, You've made
a night not off. You get to call that good
sick And then a lot of texts. I'll get to
those brilliant texts, brilliant texts, such good, so many texts
about tin fruit and the order of tin fruit. Murriott's
Marcus welcome.

Speaker 10 (18:26):
Yeah, hi, Marcus, all blacks. I have a pretty good
theory and why we lost great And it's a question
of recovery time and workload, especially for our older players.

Speaker 8 (18:40):
Right.

Speaker 10 (18:41):
I know a bit about physical effort and recovery time,
especially as you get older. Through my work in sport,
so my take on it's not the first time that's happened.
The same thing repeats itself. In Buenos Aire's we played
Argentina one one last one. Argentina aren't Argentina are not
South Africa and South Africa are not well with either.

(19:04):
So we fronted up with our best team last week
and we pulled it off. But it wasn't easy. That
was probably the most physical game I've had this year. Right,
you have you agree with that?

Speaker 2 (19:14):
I do.

Speaker 10 (19:15):
Now what happened this weekend was there. South Africa basically
renewed their team because they have an extreme amount of depth,
but we can't. We couldn't afford ourselves in that luxury
because our best players we have a limited number of,
and our key players mid end of Korea and or
end of career. Now I'm not saying that they shouldn't
be there. They are our best players. But as you

(19:37):
get older, you need more recovery time. So if you
needed one or two more days before you started to
match like yesterday, but you don't have it, you might
not start your workload, which is probably going to be
an increased workload from the week before. At one hundred percent,
you might start the match at eighty five or ninety percent,

(19:59):
So you're going to get gassed pretty quickly, especially if
you have to do an enormous effort straight away, which
they did in the first half. They're called three sports
are on top. But they went flat and then they
basically fizzled out because they had nothing in the tank.
It indeed makes sense.

Speaker 3 (20:16):
It makes sense to be married, and because the work
you've done, you probably think if physically they're exhausted and mentally,
that game would slip away too, wouldn't it make poor decisions?

Speaker 10 (20:26):
Only at the end they would have started off just
fine as we saw it. But if they didn't start
one hundred percent, they that they can't map in for
the direction of the game. And you see that when
South Africa could bring on their substitutes, their substitutes are
superior to ours because they had the numbers and the chance.
That's just the way. That's that's the way it is

(20:48):
right now.

Speaker 8 (20:48):
For using a rape there.

Speaker 10 (20:51):
Now, I think that if we put that same hum
Onto time against Australia, they're all recovered, they're all fine,
they're all you know, Red go and I'm not a
sixty a problem two weeks time. But I'll put it
to you this way. I'll leave my call at that.
What if it was a three match series and we
were playing South Africa again next weekend, what do you
think the result would Because we're going to put the

(21:12):
same people on the park.

Speaker 3 (21:13):
They won't we get a hide again? So what's the
what's what's the Murray? What do you see as the solution?

Speaker 12 (21:19):
Depth?

Speaker 10 (21:20):
They talk about four plowers in every position, but I
don't see even two plowers in every position. They were
playing bad and Barratt in a Savilla. They both did
one hundred and sixty minutes against South Africa. I think
didn't even consider that they did then the neighbors team.

Speaker 3 (21:38):
Really Yeah, but it's as refreshing and you as any
of the thinking I've heard, Maurray. So we'll chuck that
to the mix. Thank you, favorite favorite food, turned to Murray.

Speaker 10 (21:49):
Oh I go, I go budget. But the pictures are
always try and against South Africa. For Chinese, there you go.

Speaker 3 (21:57):
Because of the because because of their democracy. Is that
what it's about?

Speaker 8 (22:02):
That?

Speaker 3 (22:05):
Because for South Africa for a long long time, and
then there was apartheid, but there are guavas were still delicious.
Those giant guavas with those pips actually get so that's
on my list for them. Are am gonna get guavas
gavers turned guavas. You never see that at the at

(22:25):
the Builtong store turned guavas fruit world. Get the met oh,
I get them countdown selick guavas and light syrup. I
don't like the syrup so much, but you never know,
I'll give them a shot. Jackie, this is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 13 (22:46):
Oh hi Marcus.

Speaker 14 (22:47):
I just wanted to talk about the pictures because I'm
the diabetic. Yes, but the preachers they have them cane
with no sugar.

Speaker 3 (22:55):
Wow, what they think of next?

Speaker 14 (22:58):
Yeah, so they've got three different cans for the peachers.
They've got the syrup. You know, they've got different in
the one with no sugar. So I worry when they
get that. I don't think that other time.

Speaker 3 (23:11):
Wow, you guys would be you guys will be left
in the lurch.

Speaker 14 (23:16):
Yeah, well left in the loops. I was just worrying
about that man with all the cream in that because
you know, with his toes and all that, you know
the sugar.

Speaker 3 (23:25):
Yeah, I don't like to give dietary advice. But but
any seemed happy with it. Was this one treat in life.
So yeah, but you know, yeah, I mean it did
seem to be a lot of cream and sugar in
those tins of peatures.

Speaker 14 (23:38):
Yeah, and so you had got a choice. And it's
clear insane with fruit each other? What is products in that?
And so it's really good if you're diabetics, you know, I.

Speaker 3 (23:47):
Mean, can you eat a lot of tin fruit when
you're diabetic?

Speaker 15 (23:50):
No?

Speaker 14 (23:51):
Not really, it's a treat.

Speaker 3 (23:52):
Yeah, I thought it might be a treat.

Speaker 14 (23:55):
Yeah. And because it sees no sugar, you know, you
get hopped into that. But actually you know, oh.

Speaker 3 (24:01):
Yes, you think no sugar. I have a big ten
of those. Then you're in then you're in a coma. Yeah,
there's But you guys are you guys are good with
dates because it's a different sort of sweetness. Is that right?
You can have as many dates as you like.

Speaker 16 (24:13):
Is that right?

Speaker 5 (24:15):
I like that.

Speaker 14 (24:16):
I don't know. I try to keep they. So you
say that you shouldn't have dried fruit as well?

Speaker 3 (24:22):
Okay, quite intense, probably a lot of sugar picked and
the dried fruit.

Speaker 14 (24:26):
Yeah, and so once it goes, you know, it saves
it on the outside that once you got into your
sum of the metics, I mean all the sugar, and
it's like, you know anything, you've just got to be
careful a little bit of every thinks okay, you'd.

Speaker 3 (24:38):
Be real tin gayser at the supermarket a saying what's
got on it? Looking at the labels?

Speaker 14 (24:43):
I do, but you know, I like those doors months
but like they're nine dollars. Something turns.

Speaker 17 (24:51):
The doors.

Speaker 3 (24:52):
I just closed my eyes. How much that I do
you have? Just closing my eyes when I'm buying those?
Is that right?

Speaker 18 (24:56):
Wow?

Speaker 4 (24:57):
Yeah?

Speaker 14 (24:58):
So you know erroticts extensive right absolutely? The days just
it's I don't what is is in like three sixty
nine where I've dropped. They're quite expensive.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
Nice to hear from you, Jackie. Is everything expensive? And
the government seems like they're giving up on fixing the
economy now they're just going to work out that we're
gonna have concerts. That's going to be the answer. Who
was going to come to walking and spend on concerts
and then we're gonna lubricate the economy. What do you
think that could go wrong? I'm sure I'll go to court. Firstly,
the people of eden Park. We're going to court the
residents and say hey, you can't tell us what we

(25:32):
can and can't do. That would be my suggestion. I
don't know what Eden Park's going to have. We've got Sharon,
We've had Sharon it as much as we want. We've
got Coldplay, We've had Pink. Who else is We've got Metallica.
Taylor Swift bon't come here despite the embarrassing wedding invite.
So who will come here to play d in Park?

(25:53):
I don't know the answer. So I thought of something today.
What would be a good thing for Caraven? What it
was here on midnight? Welcome eight hundred and eighty chat
here nine nine texts, A lot of very good texts.
Texts twenty two to nine oh, eight hundred and eighty
ten eighty text every good. I'll share some with you evening, Marcus.

(26:18):
I don't want to start another topic. But my local
unique m pharmacy got Fashi hot water bottle in. They
are tops putty. The cold nights are now over. Yes,
they're not rubber. There's something special. The terrible name though, Feeshi.
They are very good. Gordon Bennett, I never knew there

(26:39):
were so many songs about peaches. There is dozens Marcus.
Maybe we would have better All Blacks if we had
a Kiwi coaching team. Tony Brown coached the box backline
and that was a different difference. Next we have Joe
Schmidt a keyw we go in Australia. There goes the
bledders are over the ditch. All we have is a
blunt raiser and a gunfight. Cheers John. So Murray would
have cleaned up with the tab knowing all that before kickoff,

(27:00):
probably did tou ulcer's most commonly caused by diabetes and
poor circular Maybe less cream and more movement. I was
trying to think of a cream substitute for him that
clearly likes it all together, Marcus Supermarkets called local production.
How many people are going to be unemployed in support

(27:21):
businesses not needed by this current move sad Nol. It
was definitely hard to see the whooping the All Blacks
got given, But how fantastic is that everyone had the
chance to win. I eat tin peaches and love them.
I buy from Walworth, the peaches from China and South Africa.
They all taste the same and are nice. What his

(27:43):
Hawks Bay peaches do have at least some taste, unlike
the cheaper brands, which may as will be wheat, yellow cardboard.
How about those winds on Saturday? He has been a
report fred On. I drove down a road on an
invert cargo on Saturday twice one time, Satday once and Sunday,
and there are a large numbers of street signs all
blown over, letter boxes blown out. There's no local reporting,

(28:04):
but appearces though there was a mini type food or
something that went through. I've never seen touch damage quite localized,
but jeepers, I've never tried wet yellow cardboard high tried tin,
light cheese delicious with music. I get mine at Peck
and save around a dollar seventy cafe. How could you

(28:27):
assume I haven't tried tin. I've tried everything tinned and
the light sheese ut my gem. They tasted bit. I
don't even know what they tasted. A process to me.
Seventeen to nine looking forward to you called it all about
peaches and Eden Park. By the way, no one seems
to be talking about boycotting. What is I think the
horse has bolted their own by craft overseas anyway, I
guess it's cheap labor and machinery. Would their machines? Would

(28:49):
there be machines picking peaches? I guess they probably just
shake the tree into the net they go. They get
this graber around the tree and shake they go, and
then it falls and they roll down and then yeah,
I guess it's highly automated. I don't know much about
South Africa canning rice pudding with sliced watty peaches and

(29:10):
clear fruit juice. Norm nom Oh Marcus. I don't think
there's any sugar and cream. It's fat and protein fits
nicely in the kto diet. I use cream in my
morning coffee rather than the milk which does have sugar.
John rung Back and he's just ordered forty eight do
you say forty eight bottles? One hundred and fifty bottles

(29:33):
of l MP. That's a lot. Looking forward to your
calls fourteen zine. Also the situation with Eden Park. It
seems like we're going to promote our way out of
a recession by having great concerts or great events. I
don't know what the great events are. Formula one we
wouldn't get at the Olympics, we wouldn't get it. I

(29:54):
don't know what the great events are apart from I
don't know what. Tell you seems we're doing well Kevin
Bloody Wilson. But he wouldn't sell edon park, would he.
He seems with joy going around the provinces, whether rude songs,
I don't know what the other solution is for that.
Do get in touch twelve to nine. I'll keep your
deal with the news around the country. If you've got
something to say, come on. And the hierarchy of tin food,

(30:19):
what goes at the top, it goes guavas pears, it
goes guavas black Doris plums pears. In my mind, now
that's just one man's opinion. But fight me for it, don't.
I don't love the pictures too slippery, hence the bib
slimy little things. We've got a partial eclips. It was

(30:42):
one of the few places to see it. It's next week.
Not interested in partialer clips. I just want the real deal,
the whole shi bang. Partial. Not interested. I'll be at
work anyway. Twelve to nine. Do come through dcf DCT
be in touch if you want to be part of it.
By the way, the Emmys were they out today The

(31:03):
Emmy Emmy's was the Emmys were all dressed up? Weren't
they welcome? If you want to do there's something else
you want to mention too. It seems to be a
fairly strong opinion piece in the paper day about people
leaving New Zealand. No one's coming back. New Zealand is broken.

(31:29):
There we go. It's broken. It's fairly damning, isn't it.
So stuff's run all the numbers to see if we
are broken or not. I think it's wages overseas. There's
so much more appealing. They're now saying, well, let's look
at the five point three million that chose to stay here. Well,

(31:53):
I guess not everyone can leave this family and all
sorts of things. Oh something's on my screen. Damn what
is it? Says current Recording Waterway in minus forty two minutes.
I just click an X. What is it?

Speaker 17 (32:06):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (32:06):
Yeah, someone's Oh hell should I go home to major though,
isn't it? I won't be going to put any calls
to wear it's zb one cam threes on. Is anyone
in that studio? Let's stop doing it? Who's in there?
Psychos Marcus? Should we have New Zealand? Peaches? At halftime

(32:31):
instead of oranges. Well, the trouble with halftime snacks is
I don't televise it, but extremely good promotion. The cream
man should have vanilla yoga instead. He's probably a good
suggestion was the bib that got me?

Speaker 8 (32:45):
Wow?

Speaker 3 (32:46):
Ten from nine looking forward to you and put much
debate by the text about the merit of John and
his cream. Someone says high cream does have sugar, although
less than milk. Lactose is the name of the sugar.
Dennis says to claim that science as bad as old

(33:07):
cream is actually a good health product and beneficial for diabetics.
Overuseful had some extra weight, Dennis and your cholesterol, I
would think Marcus Lawana here, I just tuned in. What
are the topics for tonight? Thinks it's a very good
question you asked. The topics are many and varied. What
is the beloved New Zealand brand which is now owned
by Craft. They've done the dirty on us. They've actually

(33:28):
given up buying the peaches in Hawke's Bay. They're bringing
in just canned fruit from overseas. How do they So
that's what they've done. They've done the dirty. So yep,
that's at the end of fruit, the end of locally
made fruit. We're also talking about Eden Park and what
they can have there. They'll never get They'll never get
they'll never get Magic Day, and they'll never get state

(33:49):
of Origin. I can tell you that Ozzie will never
get that up, even for Big Dollar, even asked Lonigan,
he won't bring it. Philip's Marcus good evening.

Speaker 19 (34:00):
Hey, I guess I just got to talk you about
a big event that we just had in Willington. I
attended the game and as you do before the game,
you walk around the water front Wellington and you're talking
to people were Taltady, South Africans, and start talking to
this couple at a bar and they're from Dallas, Texas.
He moved from South Africa to Dallas nineteen ninety two.

(34:25):
So he decided, you know, he'd never been in New Zealand,
He's going to come and watch the two chest matches.
And then he invited his neighbors, who are American Green
Bay packer for American football fans there his neighbors they
came as well. So I mean, there's just a little
example where you know, people wouldn't even think, hey, there
might be a few tourists come here. But there's four
high spending American tourists.

Speaker 3 (34:47):
Africans there are did they? Are they bitcoin miners?

Speaker 9 (34:52):
Why not?

Speaker 19 (34:52):
Kugan's Yeah, they love that, don't they?

Speaker 3 (34:54):
But what are they doing? And what are they doing
in Dallas?

Speaker 19 (34:58):
To ask me?

Speaker 8 (35:00):
He had that doctor look about.

Speaker 3 (35:01):
Him, you know when they should and that'll be what
he does.

Speaker 19 (35:06):
Yeah, I reckon, but hey, yeah, I have events. It
doesn't have to eat Taylor Swift. It can be an
old all black game and people will go you see
these lines to us, I mean.

Speaker 3 (35:18):
Played that off and they're already complaining about half of
they play. So yeah, I think we do. I think
we've I think we've got as much money as we
can out of them.

Speaker 19 (35:25):
No, No, I would squeeze that lemon.

Speaker 4 (35:26):
That's a good point.

Speaker 3 (35:27):
Hey, why would people leave matches early? Were they leaving
in droves?

Speaker 19 (35:34):
I stayed and watched because for me it's an experience,
you know, but we need to get that experience. Gin thrashed.

Speaker 3 (35:41):
Were people leaving.

Speaker 19 (35:44):
Just ones and twos? It wasn't drove, not at all.

Speaker 3 (35:47):
It was a narrative on the TV and I've seen since.

Speaker 19 (35:51):
Nah, not at all, not at all. No, I was,
I was there ten minute line. You have good seats
near the halfway and the only thing I'll say, you know,
like also before the game, it's just South Africans. Ever
at all the bars and packed down, you know, and
us all black supporters were kind of quiet and you know,
we don't we're not too boisterous. But when we got
to the game, they're actually I always say hard spot,

(36:13):
but it was clear that suddenly the crowd was ninety
percent all black sporers, you know. So that was the
thing I really noticed. But yeah, more events. Hey, it's
great for the tourism. Are there, Marcus bust you.

Speaker 3 (36:36):
Oh yeah, yeah, well they're good stacks. That is gone
two away from nine o'clock makes its Marcus welcome.

Speaker 20 (36:45):
And Marc is just a quick comment about the peatures.
I was watching that news item and I thought to myself, oh,
you know, I have you read them out of the
turn anywhere? I prefer them fresh. And I was thinking, well,
you know, okay, let's you know, forget about the turns.
Just just put them on the market. You know, Peck
and save down here and Pepper Room. They bring him

(37:06):
great big you know, great big crates of all sorts
of things, and they discount down really good. Why not?
You know, I mean every every Christmas we come around
to the stone fruit, and that's really quite expensive.

Speaker 3 (37:24):
I think it's expensive to transport, and I think it's
expensive to keep to market because it's kind of quite delicate.
There will be my take on it.

Speaker 20 (37:31):
Yeah, yeah, and maybe they have to have the calling.

Speaker 3 (37:35):
Yeah, I think yeah, I don't think it's cheap. I
think particularly pictures and apricots. I'm gonna run for news Max,
but nice to talk to you. To you, Marcus. Protest
is still outside Nicola Willison's ectorate in Johnsonville. Thank you
for that. That's the mesest I think the priests are
they Marcus? Right now, we're relation in nation with losible mentality.
We're in a society full of yes butters. We need

(37:56):
to be. Why not is until that changes, nothing will improve.
We'll tell you what. I'll tell you what. We're down
on ourselves. Jeeves, greetings, welcome.

Speaker 21 (38:08):
How are you.

Speaker 3 (38:08):
What's happening all about? Yeah? Cheapest? What's this country like
at the moment?

Speaker 8 (38:15):
Eh?

Speaker 3 (38:15):
Yes, butters Marcus summer, yes, butter nomargura in kiwe kate.
People stop talking about butter. Oh good evening, Marcus of
your show. With all the talk about peachures, have to
have a wee. Look at my cuptcy. I actually have
a ten years. I found a ten from ages ago
sitting there. It's half the added some Greek yogurt, melded

(38:36):
some honey and poured all over them to make them sweeter.
Well that's sweet enough. We are talking about ten peaches.
Is there any hope because what is are giving up?
They're not going to buy the local product. It's cheaper
to get from them from China or from South Africa. Well,
I don't know what the I guess that's the laws

(38:57):
of globalization, isn't it. Yeah, I don't even know what
to say about that. Do we are mourning the fact
we can't buy local peaches made locally? I wonder if.

Speaker 11 (39:19):
I mean?

Speaker 3 (39:20):
I don't see any nichels niche canning operations starting up,
do you. There's always some bottlers where they arrange them
all fancy and sell them and glass jars, but that's
not the same courst your King's rents. And we're also
talking about Eden Park. What events they will get there
to lubricate the economy, to kick start the economy. I

(39:40):
think it's a fool's errand because I'm sure most families
have a limited budget to go to events like that,
so at the moment they're going to Pink and Cold Play,
you put other things on that go there and not
go to those. So there's probably a fixed amount, and
people haven't got much money. They're spinning little on butter.
So I think it's a nice fun thing for the
government to talk about having bringing this this seventy million

(40:03):
dollars to bring events to New Zealand. I just don't
know what they've are, apart from those ebber robots or dinosaurs. Mind,
there's always dinosaurs. They always seem a bit scare me,
don't they. All those people cueuing up to see dinosaur skeletons?
What about that all the lines are free? Ten past nine.
I'll keep you going. If there's other stuff you want

(40:24):
to talk about tonight, God, let's hear from you whatever
that is. I'm sure we'll cope. If you've got something
of excitement that's exciting to talk about. Eight hundred and
eighty ten eighty and nine nine two to text Marcus,
does anyone know where peaches originated from? I'd say, Mesopotamia.

(40:45):
That would be a guess. Could someone do some researcher
to me where peaches are from? I'd say somewhere there
in the like where dates are. Where would they be from?
Where are peaches from? It's good question, Marcus. Peach is

(41:10):
gone today, Next to go will be peas, carrots, beans,
and corn. I think a lot of that stuff's imported anyway,
is it. I'm not a label label gazer. I'm not
looking at labels. Who are the first too depressing? I

(41:31):
imagine now with labeling of frozen fruit, you couldn't tell
where it's from. It would say something baffling like made
from combined, made from imported and local ingredients to cover
all bases. You have no idea, no idea. Christmas is
Marcus welcome?

Speaker 22 (41:54):
Oh, good evening, Marcus Chris. I was quite shocked when
I heard about the peaches.

Speaker 3 (42:00):
God, that's what we like. We trade in shock. That's
the exact that's the exact reaction we wanted.

Speaker 22 (42:06):
Well, well, I was thinking, I love what is Hawk's
Bay peaches? And I had a when they first mate
brought out the apricots that were from South Africa many
years ago. I brought them home from the supermarket. It
was one of those deals where you got four cans
for four ninety.

Speaker 3 (42:25):
Nine wood memory.

Speaker 22 (42:28):
Yeah, and I bought so I came all five cans
for four nine something like that when they were around
about a dollar a ton.

Speaker 3 (42:33):
Not if you don't know, it's four or five, I'm
with you still, yep, yeah, I can't.

Speaker 22 (42:38):
Remember, but it was something like that. And I bought
all the cans of apricots home and I opened the
first one and they were kind of green and hard,
green tinged, and I thought, what's going on here? And
then I read the can that it was South Africa.
So I took them all back to the supermarket and

(42:59):
they swapped them for because it was mix and match
any kind of fruit tins and I got pizzas instead
books they peaches, and took the remaining apricots back. And
that was years ago. I thought, I'm not having those
dreadful apricots because I'd been used to Rocksdale Beautiful can
Roborough in the day and that was like South African

(43:24):
ones were just disgusting. So when I heard that tonight,
I thought, well, you know, I don't know what the
South African peaches are like. But I guess I could
try them, But is there anything like the apricots were,
I won't be buying them.

Speaker 3 (43:42):
Yeah, the Rocksdale buildings are still there, but apparently they
stopped kenning in two thousand and six. Did we know that?

Speaker 22 (43:51):
Yeah, I had a look at the website, but I
haven't read it.

Speaker 13 (43:54):
It said two.

Speaker 22 (43:55):
Thousand and six.

Speaker 8 (43:56):
It was.

Speaker 22 (43:58):
It was, oh, went from the nineteen forties. Apparently it
must have been like around about the war years.

Speaker 3 (44:04):
Yes, so they put they put the rail up through
there to what rail them out also so but then
of course the they confirmed they converted a lot of
the orchards into dams when they put the when they
flooded the lake, when they flooded the Kluther.

Speaker 22 (44:17):
It's what I was just thinking. When they flooded to
make the damn that all the fruit trees were flooded
out of the valley. So maybe we.

Speaker 3 (44:29):
Should have gone nuclear then that would have been the answer.
Then we got a nuclear energy and apricots.

Speaker 12 (44:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 22 (44:34):
Well, I just thought the apricots and the pictures were
my favorite above your.

Speaker 23 (44:41):
Tears.

Speaker 22 (44:41):
And I've never tried guavas, so I can't stay.

Speaker 3 (44:45):
Delicious things with giant pips that message your gums. Try
those report back. They're a bit slimy for some, but
they're a neat thing. Brenda, this is Marcus.

Speaker 24 (44:53):
Hi.

Speaker 3 (44:54):
Brenda, Hi, Marcus. How are you?

Speaker 21 (44:59):
I'm good? Thank you?

Speaker 9 (45:00):
How are you?

Speaker 3 (45:01):
Good? Things? What can you tell me?

Speaker 14 (45:03):
Okay?

Speaker 21 (45:05):
So with the peatures, I there's all the time for
my kids, the canny fruit and stuff. The thing is
is that when I started to see the difference in
price rises, I would opt to get the the cheaper versions,
which were the cans for a dollar or something, but

(45:27):
they were all made in China. I always look at
the labels. I mean, my kids we always try and
buy you know, New Zealand made or local produce whatever.
And then it was it just became a bit hard
for me to choose. However, with the little turns of

(45:49):
fruit or not turns, they're little containers. You get like
a four pack and you get they're like two dollars
or something, but it's a like a little cute pack
for the kids lunches. And I would get that, and
then when my daughter mentioned to me that they were
made and trying to not that we're rested or anything,
but we try to buy just new Zealand products. I

(46:13):
stopped buying them and I'm going to spend a little
extra now on just how the products or or like, yeah,
it's I I find it. I find it really hard
to just buy like I saw the imported and like

(46:35):
ingredients like from imported and you know, so it just yeah,
I feel the pain of trying to support our own
and in the like keeping it in the budget.

Speaker 3 (46:53):
Although yeah, and they say support your own. But but
what is is now owned by hind so it's an
overseas company anyway, which makes it tricky, doesn't it.

Speaker 21 (47:05):
Yeah, yeah, but I just wanted to share that because, Yeah,
I'm enjoyed listening to all the topics you guys took about.

Speaker 3 (47:15):
Really nice to hear from you, Brenda, thanks for making
the efforts appreciated seventeen past nine. Ironically, peaches originate from China.
That's pretty interesting, isn't it.

Speaker 15 (47:29):
Now.

Speaker 3 (47:29):
I don't want to get involved with sweeping cultural generalizations.
It's been the undoing of many a talk host. However,
often if you go to a Chinese restaurant, you know,
I haven't see the zerots, do you see? Like sheese?
An ice cream occasion would offer nothing else, So I

(47:50):
don't know if they I don't know, actually i've seen
I don't know what they do with their peaches and
traditional Chinese cuisine, but it's probably appropriate to get your
peaches from China because that's where they came from. Yeah, anyway,
she's all on seventeen past nine, twenty past nine, Mitchell.

(48:13):
This is Marcus.

Speaker 8 (48:14):
Welcome today, Marcus.

Speaker 3 (48:16):
There you are good thanking Mitchell.

Speaker 25 (48:20):
Yeah, look, I got to know about these Chinese of
Vietnamese beaches that you're talking about today.

Speaker 3 (48:28):
Well, we're just talking about general peaches and now some
of the most of the important ones seem to come
from South Africa or China.

Speaker 22 (48:34):
South Africa as well as it.

Speaker 25 (48:36):
Yes, yeah, well personally I'm not a not a big
peach guy, but I will have him sometimes on my
week maybe.

Speaker 20 (48:47):
Once or fortnight.

Speaker 22 (48:49):
Ye sure, it will really the economy that much like
to book your rock.

Speaker 3 (48:58):
For say that again?

Speaker 23 (49:07):
Oh, just I don't think that features that many people eat,
features really want is gonna change.

Speaker 26 (49:15):
If we get some important features, do you think?

Speaker 3 (49:18):
Yeah, well, what's gonna happen? Okay, there's hundreds of jobs
and hastings that are at the Watties Canning factory. And
those jobs will go because we're no longer going to
make the make the peaches local. We're going to have
them imported from China and South Africa. That's jobs gone,
that's regional jobs. After all the jobs have gone from Tasman,
from the from forestry and those sorts of things. So yeah,

(49:40):
I mean unemployment's going through the roof. And that's because
if it's the end of local manufacturing and local canning.
So that's that's what the concerns is. Because there are
other jobs bringing up in Hastings. No, I don't think
anyone does studies locally, do they they should? I think
down at the well your lines to terrible Mitchell, Sorry

(50:03):
to a sound cross, the most terrible phone line. Any who? Oh,
just sending a text talk amongst yourselves. Oh, I tutted

(50:28):
at Teddy and nineteen nine to text I won't touch
the peatures from China due to pesticides. Wild you use
pesticides here though? Would we? Another text? I only ever
bind us in peaches good called brendan and pai. Here's
a challenge. What type of sprays and how much are
used on Chinese peatures and fruit and water composition competing

(50:50):
and you said fruit. There's our value? Does anyone know?
And the biggie how much do the pickers it's set
to get paid? And age? Oh, they might be picked
by children. That's a good point. We need a consumer
revolt against any supermarket that won't supply local peatures too.
And Jane, well people will buy them. Sorry, souper bags

(51:11):
will stop them. Just ap pep won't buy them because
of the price. What is buy off local growers and
employ local people. That's correct. Only had tin peaches twice
this year, one set school camp and the other at
a week books triathlon. Yes, well they are a standard
of school camps and church church holiday programs. It's where

(51:31):
they go with the tin peaches. The South African peaches
are superb. We always look for products of South Afica.
We buy tin peaches. Lisa had a quote to day
to repair one tooth foinety six dollars. I say, extract
it cost five to seventy two. Who can afford industry
these days? Will you need to go to Turkey? It's

(51:54):
the answer. Good evening, Graham, This is Marcus.

Speaker 24 (51:56):
Welcome, Hi Marcus. Just yeah, what is teaches?

Speaker 4 (52:01):
I mean?

Speaker 24 (52:02):
I grew up on them? Really as kids and take
a can away when I went hunting and threw them
on the porridge, which was a bit of a luxury.
But I haven't. I don't buy stuff, but if you
wanted to buy quality, you would both buy what he
is now bottle all my own so I do about
sixty jars of peaches a year bottled. And well when worry.

Speaker 3 (52:26):
When you say if you want to buy quality, I
mean what is are probably from overseas.

Speaker 24 (52:33):
Now, No I was in the past if you wanted
to buy good stuff, you could buy other stuff and
you could see where it comes from and never tasted
the same as the wady stuff.

Speaker 3 (52:43):
But I say what what is for a long time
has on the a ten of combination of overseas and
local stuff.

Speaker 24 (52:50):
I would imagine, yeah, so when I was a kid,
that's getting back ay, but so but anyway, it's yeah,
it's I suppose it's so of the times as bottle
all my own peaches now and I don't have to
worry about it.

Speaker 10 (53:04):
And I don't know.

Speaker 24 (53:05):
Why a lot of people other people don't grow their
own and bottle their own and stuff as well, Then
you don't have to worry about growing for stuff. Do you.

Speaker 3 (53:13):
Well, I guess a lot of people are because they
ever got place for storage. If they're in apartments, they
count store hundreds of jars. They haven't got trees to
grow them.

Speaker 24 (53:22):
Yeah, that's where your forage, Marcus. You go out foraging
and there's lots of places that just let fruitful on
the ground just gets wasted, which is a shame.

Speaker 3 (53:30):
Were you foraging you? Were you foraging your peaches? Graham?

Speaker 23 (53:34):
Oh?

Speaker 24 (53:34):
Where they are friends?

Speaker 3 (53:36):
But are you growing? Are you growing them or foraging them?

Speaker 14 (53:40):
No?

Speaker 24 (53:40):
I grow got a couple of trees to my own
and then got to mate. It's got some trees, and
other mates got trees and and you know, I don't
think people just make use of them. They I think
it's they're undervalued.

Speaker 3 (53:52):
Really, you have to have the right climate. Of course,
I don't grow everywhere either.

Speaker 24 (53:57):
No, it's in Canterbury, so yeah, yeah, but anyway, No,
it's a shame. But some of the times and.

Speaker 20 (54:05):
What do you do?

Speaker 3 (54:08):
What's the answer?

Speaker 24 (54:11):
I don't know what the answer is, but it's a shame.
And you know, when body's sold out, I suppose that
was a bit of history going as well.

Speaker 3 (54:19):
So yeah, hi, Marcus Peachers from China, No way would
I touch them. In fact, now off the Menua, primply
because China is still ramped with these of the band
pissed asides DTT on the growing fields. So if you
want to develop cancer, go ahead eat peaches from China.
Jee peachers from China know whether I touch them? Oh yes,

(54:40):
it's the same one. Good a Marcus. What is YouTube mean?

Speaker 8 (54:43):
Hind?

Speaker 3 (54:43):
What is no longer a key with icon? Hind shouted
local hawks bays, Golden Queen grows years ago. They're quite
paying orchards to shake and monster croppers too many sitting unsold.
You the cheaper inputs what a joke. A lot of
the frozen broccoli and caulifler comes from China. Why on
earth do we import produce we grow here? Always buy
New Zealand produce. How would you know? I don't know

(55:09):
about that. Pesticides and overseas ten fruit that test for that,
wouldn't they, I would think so that might be a
bit of ski angering. I don't know if anyone's got
the science on that. Most of the concerns about Chinese
peaches have been to do with anti dumping practices, not

(55:31):
toxic chemicals. So there she was dumping, not DTT. So yeah,
that's what's happened. The government has investigated that. Heines what
has claimed that the Chinese government, the Chinese peaches have
been dumped at low prices than possible. Haven't really followed
that story. There's been used ral articles on that, but

(55:54):
no word on pesticide residue. Actually, he has something on
pesticize residue now, mainly the analys the ones from Turkey.
It's too scientific fore to read. While I'm on here. Yeah,
you might want to mention that home Marcus. I tasted
guava on Norfolk Island, an invasive plant but delicious. A

(56:17):
lot of fruits now are hybrids. We grew pear buds
onto a quint stock and got dwarf pear trees. Noll,
what do you sell Chinese and South African peers? But
tins are well labeled. Cans have New Zealand fruit only
from Hawksball. That's good to clarify that. Thank you, Good evening.

(56:37):
This is Yvonne has emailed Good Evening. I'm disgusted that
peach growers are just going to pull their trees out
and give up what he should be supporting our local
growers and all news illuds should be supporting local businesses.
The more news in imports, the less work and money
stay in the country. We're just boosting overseas economies, not
our own. The more people we will lose. The seventy million,
I'd rather see that money going into primary health care,

(56:58):
preventive strategies and looking after our own population, enhancing overall
well being and quality of life. Our economy has not improved.
We have appalling being statistics rich Paul gaps have widened.
They've really sad state of affairs, especially compared to what
New Zealand used to be like. So there we go.
It's sobering, toty hat away from ten to this or

(57:20):
anything else. That's what we're about tonight. Give us a
call eight hundred eighty ten eighty do come through. There's
something else you want to say and talk about. Let's
be hearing from you as I say eight hundred eighty
ten eighty and nine nine two to text many way
talking about peaches. That's what we're on about. So you

(57:42):
do come through if you want to talk. It's all
about peaches, peaches, peaches and these events that are going
to rescue the economy. This kind of sounds a bit
like magical thinking to me, because I don't I don't
know what they are, so do come through if you
want to talk. Good evening, Christus is Marcus Welcome?

Speaker 26 (58:06):
Hi Marcus, just letting you know you mentioned about the
wat He's peaches. I've been to dates buying them in
hawks Bay and it'd be the same around the rest
of the country. And if you read the front of
the label, it'll actually say hawks Bay peaches.

Speaker 3 (58:21):
Great all right, And that's a good thing, isn't it.

Speaker 26 (58:26):
Yes, But as we know, not for long. Very sad.

Speaker 3 (58:30):
Thank you, Chris. Nice to hear from you. Are twenty
eight from ten. Just to check the other topic in there.
If anyone's got a hot reckon on the All Blacks,
let us know about that. Seemed like they took Turnsy's
on who could score a try? Oh South Africans, I'm
talking about not the Kiwi's First half was all right,

(58:50):
wasn't it? First hour seven does flow quite well? Then
the second half. The word that's the most common word
I think used by because everyone's written a comic column
about it. The most common term was capitulation. I had
on the screen earlier on the one of those TV shows,
one of those talking head shows. I think it was Mills,

(59:11):
Willina and Jeff Wilson and forget the third Guy. But
what they are talking about is bringing back players, changing
the eligibility rules. That old chestnut Justin Marshall was the
third guy. So that's happening. So we're all talking about that,
wanting that to come back to make it easier for people,

(59:34):
or to make it easier for her to come back
and play for the All Blacks. Yeah, so they're taking
it quite seriously. Bad day for New Zealand being touched
on to all these things. And also what we're going
to do about Eaton Park? They reckon they have? If
that because I don't think it's going to make much difference.
I think probably we get all the acts we're going

(59:57):
to get. The reason we don't get acts is not
because we don't have Eden Park available often enough. That
would be the opinion or the impress. Should I have
got now you might want to different that you might
live near the area as well and be how consumed
you would be if they do go getting busters have
a who lot more things? They're what that's going to
mean for you? Yes, So talk about that if you

(01:00:22):
want to twenty three away from ten anything else you
want to talk about tonight, feel free let me sit
up oh by Way eight hundred eighty And also too,
what do you think about the fact that what he
is are giving up the local peaches? So do come
to if you want to talk about that, and also

(01:00:43):
the All Blacks and also the situation with the Eden Park.
Want to have more situation there? Yep, But now the
government seems how bent on trying to get major contents
like Taylor Swift to New Zealand. Yes, I think, I

(01:01:09):
think did she come before? Don't even know what happened
with her as she too her. I can't quite work
out the details from that one. But yes, eight hundred
and eighty ten eighty text. How are young adults supposed
to buy house and afford to live? It gives us
no hope. I'll be honest and possible to get a job.
I've had friends looking for months. I just want minimum wage.

(01:01:31):
What can you do? Luxon drive different texts from Barnsey
Marcus driving around the North Sidand with my wife on
a sales trip. There's thousands of trees of the Gisbet
and hawks Bearer loaded with fruit. They're right, but no
one in sight. None of them is a mess of
dropped apples, oranges, mandarins, whatever. Apparently roadside shops have been

(01:01:52):
closed down due to health and safety peaches. People don't
people understand, it's not what is. It's our supermarket monopolies
who have canceled the whata is product in order to
purchase cheaper overseas as wouldn't they make more by setting
a more expensive product. Pretty went away from ten if

(01:02:12):
you want to be a part of it, nineteen to ten,
good evening, Ray, Yeah, it's Marcus.

Speaker 2 (01:02:22):
Welcome, fine looking.

Speaker 15 (01:02:24):
At the end of what is peats, the lady read
it out just before it's got what is and beat
and then Hawk's Bay underneath and small and underneath that
it's got peaches. So it sounds like what is hawks Bay? Peaches?

Speaker 13 (01:02:38):
It's not.

Speaker 15 (01:02:39):
It's what is Hawk's Bay? And then it's got features
and then on the back it's made a New Zealand
from local and imported ingredients.

Speaker 3 (01:02:51):
Yeah, it's important today.

Speaker 15 (01:02:53):
Yeah, didn't read the fine print.

Speaker 3 (01:02:55):
No, that's important information. I appreciate that, Ray, you got.
I think one of the MP's had a big thing
about food labeling, but they it was all sketchy and
I don't think we already know what's going on now,
which I'm not happy about. I quite tiny tin boys
and berries good too. Hello Jan, Marcus, welcome, Hi Jan, Hi,

(01:03:24):
it's Marcus. Good evening.

Speaker 18 (01:03:26):
Oh sorry, I think we should all boycott these foreign
tin fruit peaches, whatever it is, because there's even tins
of fruit salad in the shop made in China. Have
you seen them?

Speaker 23 (01:03:40):
No?

Speaker 3 (01:03:40):
But I think most of our fruit comes out tin
fruit now comes from China.

Speaker 18 (01:03:45):
I won't need anything that comes from China. I've heard
too much about what grows over there in China, what
they water their plants worth and everything. It's disgusting.

Speaker 3 (01:03:53):
I think the peaches originally come from China.

Speaker 18 (01:03:56):
What's wrong with what's wrong with this? All boycotting them?
If they're going to bring them in?

Speaker 3 (01:04:01):
Well, people I think haven't got much money as they
buy for their kids. What's cheapest.

Speaker 18 (01:04:07):
I'd rather pay twice surprise than get New Zealand.

Speaker 3 (01:04:10):
But not everyone's got that much money. I don't think
this is.

Speaker 18 (01:04:13):
Only probably fifty cents ten between the menway.

Speaker 3 (01:04:15):
Twice a price, that's what it's a dollar fifty against
three ninety.

Speaker 18 (01:04:19):
But I thought the government is telling us to buy local.

Speaker 3 (01:04:23):
No they're not.

Speaker 18 (01:04:25):
No, no, no they are. They are telling us to
buy local. Not not necessary to imprusion.

Speaker 3 (01:04:30):
I've never heard lucks and say. I've never heard lucks
and say by.

Speaker 18 (01:04:33):
Local, local clothing and all this stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:04:36):
Don't Nicolas Willis Scott of the Budget and a dress
from England was the last the last. It was the
last government that said by local.

Speaker 27 (01:04:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 18 (01:04:48):
Bye, there's all this stuff that's coming in from Tumai
and China and everything all fools to bits.

Speaker 3 (01:04:55):
Wow, but people go nuts. People love that Timu stuff.

Speaker 18 (01:04:59):
Yeah, but I still think we should be supporting our
local people.

Speaker 3 (01:05:03):
Have you brought anything on Timu?

Speaker 4 (01:05:05):
No, Norman.

Speaker 18 (01:05:07):
I've got a sister. I've got a sister in law
that one sister in law bought the other children Christmas
presents from China and the other one put them out
of the gate with the rubbish. She wouldn't allow her
children to wear them. That's the fact that isn't. And
you know what funny thing is it was the children
of the other one that told them Mum put it

(01:05:28):
at the gate.

Speaker 3 (01:05:29):
Why that's funny.

Speaker 22 (01:05:31):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (01:05:31):
That caused a family that would cause a family rift,
wouldn't it.

Speaker 18 (01:05:35):
I suppose it would, But I don't blame it.

Speaker 28 (01:05:37):
As a family healed you or they still, I suppose
it is this is this person would not let her
children wear that stuff from dot t MO too brilliant?

Speaker 3 (01:05:50):
Where about? Wow, that's fan And there's your sister, sister
in law, rip and brilliant. I have heard too, my Dave.

Speaker 5 (01:06:02):
Margaret? How are you good?

Speaker 3 (01:06:03):
Things?

Speaker 2 (01:06:03):
Dave pen Is?

Speaker 11 (01:06:06):
I'm looking too bad?

Speaker 4 (01:06:07):
Are they?

Speaker 3 (01:06:09):
But what about? Did you see any of that Brisbane game?
That was unbelievable the end of that.

Speaker 11 (01:06:13):
Yeah, golden point, yeah, but golden.

Speaker 3 (01:06:16):
Point an extra time? It was unbelievable.

Speaker 11 (01:06:19):
It was it was. I enjoyed both matches. And yeah,
I must say that I did pick Penriff.

Speaker 3 (01:06:28):
The injury all that the Warriors season ran out of steam,
didn't it.

Speaker 8 (01:06:33):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (01:06:34):
Yeah, yeah, a wee bit of momentum early, which is
unusual for him, and then as you say, ran out
of steam.

Speaker 3 (01:06:39):
But the injuries of Metcalfe and I forget the other
guy that was out, But who was the other gun
Luke metcalf Who was the other guy that was injured?
I can't remember.

Speaker 4 (01:06:55):
It doesn't matter.

Speaker 29 (01:06:56):
It doesn't matter.

Speaker 3 (01:06:58):
An injury is part of the league, isn't it.

Speaker 11 (01:07:00):
Of course it is as part of any context. Sports
markets and athletes made athletes get injured. It's like greyhounds,
isn't it. You know you're running and chasing a little
white fluffy thing and round circle around circle track.

Speaker 9 (01:07:14):
Well, you've got to get behind.

Speaker 11 (01:07:16):
These farmers in Hawk's Bay and probably eat more peaches,
but not import peaches. I think there should be some
sort of a ban or a backlash on importing fruit.
So we've got to get behind our own farmers back then,
get these trees replanted and sewed, whatever we got to do,
and get behind the farmer's mate.

Speaker 20 (01:07:39):
That's what I have to say.

Speaker 3 (01:07:40):
And I think the growers are quite happy to take
it out because I put on apples, because apples go
gangbusters all around the world because they can travel and fruit. Yeah,
that's exactly right. Okay, Dave, I'm going to move on,
but nice to talk to you, Shoe Marcus.

Speaker 5 (01:07:53):
Good evening, Marcus.

Speaker 8 (01:07:56):
I wanted to I heard it on the news that
the government or whoever's in charge of the hospitals is
looking at making it possible for people to sleep over
in the woods with loved ones. Yes, I think that
that's a really, really dangerous situation to introduce him to
a hospital. And the reason I say that is I'm

(01:08:18):
going to give you three examples of things that I
know and have witnessed that have happened to caregiving staff,
and others will hear of this. A friend of mine
was an ambulance officer attend of the crash on the
state highway between Taupo and Napier Napia Tapo Highway. He's

(01:08:38):
tending to an injured man and the guy who was
in the car beside him says to him, if my
brother dies, you die. Oh yeah, Now that that's that's
a man who's given care to someone who's in a
bad state being threatened to have his life.

Speaker 3 (01:08:59):
Take shoe. This is not to do with what's happening
in hospitals, though, was it. This is about people, and
the concern I heard was about they said that they
might you might become the the fact I caregiving you,
but they might want you to do the feeding and
do things because their staff is so busy. That that
was the major concern I heard.

Speaker 8 (01:09:17):
He d today, Well, my major concern is because my
daughter is a nurse and was working at Willington Hospital
in the cancer unit and was giving cancer care to
a transvestrike person and that transvestrict person punched my daughter.
Now if and that's my daughter giving her the care,

(01:09:39):
giving the transvestrict person care to save that person's life
and that person is punching my daughter, this.

Speaker 3 (01:09:48):
Is all yeah, fair enough. I mean, you're not you're
not talking about the and I've heard I had discussions
down the news about the situation today and that the
major concerns from the nurses seemed to be people from
seemed to be that people would be acquired to do
more work, to do things like feed them and stuff
like that. Yep, good on you. Ten away from ten

(01:10:09):
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty Shay talking about Eden
Park and what they can do there to get better concerts.
Also talking about the fact that peatures. It's quite a
complicated story. I don't know, I don't know who's to blame,
but it's a supermarkets or if it's the growers or
quite what's going on there. Marcus you see him stun

(01:10:35):
on Taylor Swift in twenty twenty four because of the
rules over how many concerting and part would host. No,
that's not true, that's not true. I know that because
because of members of our company that'd spoken to people
in Australia about them. And I think the guy said,
I think it was Taylor Swift's father said that there

(01:10:55):
was never the a combination in Auckland. Auckland was never
on the cards they need, yeah, because it just would
not have been worth their while. So yeah, that'shod on
good authority that when I do believe the person that
said that they're those big concerts we will never get
That's fine, people love going to Australia for them, But

(01:11:16):
if you want to talk about that eight hundred and
eighty nine to text, maybe the only people will get
it with tribute shows. Maybe we should become the home
of the tribute shows. Kathleen Marcus, good evening.

Speaker 30 (01:11:30):
Oh, good evening. I want to talk about the guy
that was before me, and he was going on about
people staying in the hospital with their loved ones. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 15 (01:11:46):
No.

Speaker 30 (01:11:46):
My husband died of cancer ten years ago, but for
three weeks that we knew he was, you know, he
was there, he would die. My two grown daughters and
I stayed at our hospital and grown now and we
stayed in a union that was there was a bed

(01:12:09):
for the patient and it was an amazing boy for
the people. And my two girls bought yoga mats and
slept on the floor. So we were there right through
to the last minute.

Speaker 3 (01:12:24):
And that sounds like it was a positive experience for you, Kathleen.

Speaker 30 (01:12:29):
Oh, very positive. I mean, you know, you would have
walked away one minute, you would have been gone. So
to me, I spent that last three weeks with them, Okay.
I came home and chaired and that sort of thing.
And where we were it was a beautiful It was.

Speaker 4 (01:12:47):
A little room.

Speaker 23 (01:12:49):
I mean it was a room.

Speaker 30 (01:12:50):
And then just outside the door there was a place
where we could make a cup of tea. And you know,
we just went home and got all our own tea
and coffee and that sort of thing, and we could
make coffee and friends of ours just dropped and food
and that's boris.

Speaker 3 (01:13:07):
Yeah, yeah, appreciate. I appreciate that, Kathy. I think it's
a good thing to say. The story I don't really
find the story, but Health New Zealand says changes to
allow family members to stay with hospital patients around the
clock is about valuing family support, but the nurses. You
didn't say. The move is more to do with staffing shortages,
So once again it'll be political. George, it's Marcus good evening.

Speaker 29 (01:13:31):
Yeah, it's an interesting one. I want to come from
the angle of the patient because I've been in the
hospital several times for several weeks at the time, and
usually by about nine o'clock at night, the rooms get
dark and down lights go out, medication has been given,

(01:13:53):
people are starting to rest and want to just go
to sleep.

Speaker 3 (01:13:55):
Yeah, makes sense. So you think you think that could
be a disruption, couldn't it.

Speaker 29 (01:14:00):
Well, when someone walks in with KFC to come and
see their mates, you know, ten o'clock at night because
they finished at the pub or whatever they've been doing,
and now they come to see Frederick and see how
he's doing, and they started to chat for two hours,
the whole ward's going to get disrupted. I think that
if it's an individual room it may be okay, and

(01:14:23):
of course the patient will want to say whether they
want them there or not, and that's going to be
interesting because people act to get tired of having coone
there for too long. But the thing is, if it's
an award where you've got ten twelve people and you've
got a one cubicle chattering away at the top of
their voices, and you've got about six people there because

(01:14:44):
sometimes they come as a family group. And what's to
stop a homeless person coming to see their mate and
spending the night there A good point. So I'm just
I don't think they've thought it through and.

Speaker 3 (01:14:59):
What's wrong and what's wrong with a homeless person seeing
their mate?

Speaker 18 (01:15:02):
Oh?

Speaker 29 (01:15:02):
Nothing, But.

Speaker 3 (01:15:04):
That's what I'm saying. There's all sorts of shades and
things that go. It's quite a complicated scenario.

Speaker 8 (01:15:09):
Isn't it.

Speaker 29 (01:15:10):
Yeah, So I'm just saying that I went to ed
the other day for something to get sorted and there's
a person curled up all night. I went there at
five o'clock at night. I finally got seen at six
o'clock in the morning. This is Wellington, and there was
a lady there. She was just curled up on the
backseat asleep with the sleeping bag. So you know, what's

(01:15:33):
to say that that's not going to happen more in
a hospitlal scenario with people off the street and just
wanted them to come and see someone I decide that's
a good place to spend the night.

Speaker 3 (01:15:44):
Take your points, George, thank you. Hey, we just up
to news. People hold on you if they're there. We'll
get to you after the news. If you want to
talk after the news, do give us a call. Also
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty Hit'll twelve them joined
it greatly. Keep in touch if you want to, Marcus
till midnight. Oh wait, oh wait one o wait oh
he'll the end Marcus. Hey, Marcus, we had we as

(01:16:05):
we as Afarno had no qualms about. We had no
qualms been there to support our dad Wilston Hospital. While
we weren't trained HCA's, we knew how to handle dad. Yes,
it was probably great for the overwork nurses to have
one less patient to worry about. But isn't that good
I talk except it was some comment made from the
nurses union today. No, he couldn't give him his meds. No,
we couldn't give his meds. We certainly could look after

(01:16:25):
him in tend to most of his needs. Thank you
for that, Marcus. I'm from a patient's part. If you
have a barely peleptical I couldn't stand people visiting me
after seven only at my hobby in anyway is I
always end up in reduced coma for a few days.
The nurses at Grandmoth Hospital always gave my husband lazy
boy chief for as long as he needs it. Grandmouth
Hospital are fantastic. Hello Marty, it's Marcus. Welcome you.

Speaker 2 (01:16:49):
I'm Marcus. A sad day for peachres industry. Yeah, sounds
like it's shutting down. I heard some type of though.

Speaker 3 (01:16:56):
I'm thinking the worst thing is most radio stations will
be playing the news story and then they'll be doing
that song millions of preachers because that's the one they
always go to. But anyway, it's a great It is
a good song. But still you can sometimes you can
ignore the obvious song. I think wouldn't hurt.

Speaker 2 (01:17:11):
But anyway, yeah, yeah, so I heard. I think the
New Zealand peach price per can is about a dollar
nine a dollar ten, and the imports were around seventies
feet Yeah okay, yeah, so it's quite a lot cheaper
for import, but still quite bad. But my favorite peaches
recipe was one way Man Swamp used to make Nana

(01:17:34):
Richard and she'd do a baked custard with with peaches,
cold peaches on top. So you've got the hot and
the cold, you've got your dairy and your fruit. You
got those two a little bit of and I was like,
really good, just cold peaches on some hot baked custom
in the old part of Greatlessless. So yeah, it's a

(01:17:58):
bit sad, but ed In Park we're trying to get
some more concepts. It's a bit tricky. I think for
concerts to work well, you need to go back to
back to back. So like if you get like a
big heavy hitter in town and they sail out within
a day, you really got to open it up for
another vin another time, and then maybe even a third

(01:18:20):
third time at the same venue and there and then
if you have the opportunity, which Eden Park doesn't really
have because it's unlimited to A twenty five, so the
need can make some real money, yeah, because you're like
using all the all the all the stuff two or
three times instead of once.

Speaker 3 (01:18:40):
Although I think they've managed a good concerts at Mount
Smart and they've they've had three in a row for
Adele is that right? And then Elton John before, So
I think I think it's not because they're not coming
because they've got a concert, so yeah, I don't think
the government's been thinking quite rationally there because it's not

(01:19:00):
about eden parks. While we haven't had concerts, it's because
we haven't got the the other stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:19:05):
But yeah, yeah, and probably a few more covered stadiums
because like who's gonna who's gonna be a rock stade
go to Wellington.

Speaker 3 (01:19:17):
You look at Oasis right throughout Scotland and Ireland and
the North of England. They had fantastic they timed it
unbelievably well.

Speaker 2 (01:19:24):
Are they going in the summer time? Yes, yeah, because.

Speaker 3 (01:19:29):
Yeah, you know the you know the Earth's sphere and
don't you.

Speaker 2 (01:19:33):
Yeah yeah, yeah, but Glastonbury is in some but I
have seen some like gum boots.

Speaker 3 (01:19:41):
Yeah yeah, I glacery goes bad. Even Kate Moss doesn't
look good with medal over gun boots.

Speaker 9 (01:19:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:19:47):
Yeah, they have high gum boots and they're.

Speaker 3 (01:19:50):
Nice those little strap at that the barber or something,
aren't they They look good?

Speaker 2 (01:19:54):
Yeah?

Speaker 27 (01:19:55):
And you.

Speaker 3 (01:19:57):
Mardie, I don't think they're passed in these. I thinky're
right up just below the knees. What are you what
are you picking? What gumboots are you picking? Are you'd
be on that.

Speaker 2 (01:20:04):
Now. I've got these Italian jobs, so very light with
very high group and they weigh they're very lightweight but
quite high mid mid.

Speaker 4 (01:20:14):
They called what are they called but Gina?

Speaker 2 (01:20:19):
I think they're Italian or something.

Speaker 3 (01:20:21):
Spell it.

Speaker 22 (01:20:24):
Hang on?

Speaker 3 (01:20:24):
What's the first letter?

Speaker 30 (01:20:26):
K P for pipe, B.

Speaker 5 (01:20:30):
For beat troops, b.

Speaker 2 (01:20:33):
E ka Gina, gun.

Speaker 3 (01:20:37):
Boot b c H I in a Butchina or something.

Speaker 2 (01:20:41):
Yeah, something like that. And the lightweight would.

Speaker 3 (01:20:45):
You hear about at the field day or would you
hear about them?

Speaker 2 (01:20:49):
It's a farming family magazine from you give them from Familand.

Speaker 3 (01:20:54):
You got the white with a blue soul, my minor.

Speaker 2 (01:20:58):
Green, which is a good color for a gun boot.
They're green green up and black bole but like the
soul doesn't wear out. I've got three or four year
old ones. You do get the inevitable hole.

Speaker 3 (01:21:11):
Well, you're too good for the local stuff, now, are you.

Speaker 2 (01:21:14):
Well?

Speaker 3 (01:21:15):
If we kind of make gun if we kind of
make gamboats, we've got problems.

Speaker 2 (01:21:20):
Well, so you've got your red bands, but we're doing
twenty five thousand a day on the hill, carrying cars
and running around. You've got to have the right right tho.

Speaker 3 (01:21:31):
It has it got Has it got art support?

Speaker 2 (01:21:35):
Yeah, they've got art support, which is good. The lightweight
and they have very good concrete traction and mud traction,
which is have them to get both of those.

Speaker 3 (01:21:44):
Are they like a dark green?

Speaker 2 (01:21:46):
Yeah? Dark green? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:21:48):
Are they the Viking but Kina thermal light insulated?

Speaker 2 (01:21:52):
They're not insulated, but they're very light. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:21:56):
Again, I'm going to get me a pair of Are
they got laced up ones or just those.

Speaker 30 (01:22:00):
Just just long boots.

Speaker 2 (01:22:01):
But my wife's cut tours down. You can just sit
and cut them, be short or whatever you want, but
they last pretty good. And I'm pretty hard on my boots.

Speaker 3 (01:22:10):
I'm not happy about her getting brand new boots and
cutting them down.

Speaker 4 (01:22:14):
Well, she.

Speaker 2 (01:22:16):
Wanted like the red band shortcuts.

Speaker 3 (01:22:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:22:19):
I don't come like that. But yeah you can see
like there's nothing you can not easily cut them down
if you want. It wouldn't be good for gression Bury.
You'd have to have the long one for Gresson.

Speaker 3 (01:22:29):
That's a good. That's a good. That's a good discovery. Okay,
and you saw them at Farmlands. I have to go back.

Speaker 2 (01:22:35):
Yeah yeah farm Land, Well, yeah, yeah, happened there. Yes,
I have the sad day for peachers and a good
person more concerts. I think that the content.

Speaker 3 (01:22:45):
What's the last content you went to?

Speaker 2 (01:22:48):
I thought it was mid Shearan and now smart for
a while ago.

Speaker 3 (01:22:52):
Like ten years ago, five years ago.

Speaker 2 (01:22:56):
It's pretty good. When he was doing his looping stage,
when he was looping bomb, Yeah, pretty good.

Speaker 3 (01:23:02):
He's moving to Nashville. He's going to go country.

Speaker 30 (01:23:06):
I'm just gont to suggest.

Speaker 2 (01:23:07):
That is your one. Could get a few more countries
singing the zone and they go pretty.

Speaker 3 (01:23:12):
Good, brilliant. Nice to hear from you, Marty. Thank you
for fifteen past ten. I don't know about country. Will
it go good? How's that station going, Jason? Get in
touch you on a talk?

Speaker 2 (01:23:23):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (01:23:23):
I mean I generoust think about that. I had asked
him about that. I'm generous to know actually how that's going.
Because I heard Cowboy up. It's quite good, old Ihad
Cowboy up on one of the old poppy stations today, Gell.
I didn't know that actually taken over the commercial stations.
Now I was looking at now. I hope I've got
this right. There's a new range of gun boots called

(01:23:47):
my m a ai A which seemed to be all
the rage which have just been launched and they are
a green and black gum boot. But they've got the whole.
They've got the whole. Now I'm gonna have to I'm
I'm going to be in tough grounds culturally. Now they've

(01:24:09):
got laser etched Maldi car Pi Pi Penley. They look
quite good. I had them pop up somewhere on the
feeds the other day. Jeepest creepers, look at those. Yeah,
you'll be seeing those around. M A A I A
introducing our original Maya Gumbert Kakariki the first week. We're
launching next month from our collection laser eached Maldi called

(01:24:30):
Fi Fi patterns that won't fade all. We're out forest Green,
insparred by pone Ma and the New Zealand Bush. I
look pretty good actually, anyway, Louise, it's Marcus. Good evening, Oh.

Speaker 17 (01:24:43):
Good evening, Marcus. Well, I don't have any gun boots.
Why I ended us at the hospital or the infirmary.

Speaker 3 (01:24:52):
That's a great That was a great line, wasn't it.
You might have a day of the floor. But yeah,
if you don't have.

Speaker 17 (01:24:56):
You obviously that's why you know. But yes, this whole
song of family coming in and staying overnight. I said,
that's ubbish. I said, they just want the family to
take more responsibility and take over the kere a bit more,
you know, like see you different stuff. I've seen it happen.

(01:25:19):
When I was in the last I was in a
four bed room and I didn't know that people could
stay over. And this young girl's husband was staying over,
and you know, tensery at night. They're laughing and giggling
and talking and I said something to them and.

Speaker 3 (01:25:37):
Just did a room no.

Speaker 17 (01:25:41):
But I said, to your mind, you know, yeah, I
was plight, you know, and I got laughing that oh
yes to the old woman or something like that.

Speaker 4 (01:25:54):
And you know, I just think it.

Speaker 17 (01:25:57):
May be in a side room, especially if someone's goes.

Speaker 3 (01:26:00):
The last thing you want is stress of having to
deal with other people, like, yeah, I'm with you. That
would that would that would that would ruin my state?

Speaker 17 (01:26:09):
Oh just I remember two years ago when I was
in my high dependency unit, the person next to me
had six or seven visitors at one time. And it's
just I said something to the nurse that they didn't
I didn't do anything.

Speaker 3 (01:26:29):
Do you think do you think some people are to
visiting when it comes to you know. Oh, well, it's
going to understand because some people are going to hospital
every I think a lot of people enjoy the drama
of hospital visits. And have I said something wrong there?

Speaker 17 (01:26:42):
No, I don't. Traffic is quite onto it. Yeah they do.
They come and they laugh at me.

Speaker 3 (01:26:47):
It's exciting for their lives. Hang on such and such,
and that we'll all get together and go to underst
Well probably, yeah, I think we might. Yeah, I think
apart from close family, it's probably a weird thing to do.
I don't know where I feel about that.

Speaker 17 (01:27:00):
Yeah, it's the patients. Quite often, are you know a
time were we've had an upbrak or whatever.

Speaker 3 (01:27:10):
The visiting seems performative. It's like look at us, look out,
look at us, look out, caring we hear we out
the hospital?

Speaker 17 (01:27:15):
Yeah about yes, Well, my sister and her husband came
to see me after I'd had a spine operation. Maybe
there for three hours? What yeah, three hours? And they
are people who are very quiet. You have to prize
any conversation, so I had to do all the work.

Speaker 3 (01:27:37):
Oh god, you'll care like talk back? Yeah, I hate
you have to carry the conversation cheapers.

Speaker 17 (01:27:42):
Oh oh it was terrible.

Speaker 4 (01:27:44):
I should have said something.

Speaker 24 (01:27:45):
I suppose you should have.

Speaker 3 (01:27:47):
You should have feigned a seizure.

Speaker 22 (01:27:50):
Yeah, yeah, three hours.

Speaker 3 (01:27:56):
She listening to the show.

Speaker 24 (01:27:58):
Oh no, no, afternoon in the afternoon.

Speaker 3 (01:28:02):
Just okay, yeah, okay, Lewis, thank you. At past ten
Marcus loved the country station. There we go, Marty, what
a trader buying Italian gun boots. Well, we're not reading
the market. You think with our milking we'd have nailed
a light, good gun boot for Marty. But they never

(01:28:23):
changed the gun boots. They look the same forever, apart
from the Maya boots that look great. Have a look
at those. They look I was quite impressed with those.
Do get in touch if you want to be part
of the show. Cowboy up. Oh wait, one hundred and
eighty TDY twenty one past ten Eden Park. Because what's

(01:28:47):
the big thing people go to apart from concerts, what
do they go to overseas? They go to why are
they going to go to Amiramagaw? Do they still go
that that religious play in Germany? They'll go to Running
of the Bulls, which people think is cruel. They'll go
to Tomatina when they throw to Marto. But we need
our own thing like that, like a really big festival.
It's instagrammable that people come to and drives. I don't

(01:29:10):
know what that is. There must be something we can
come up with it, but I still I've said it once,
I've said it twice. I've probably said it O this
time forty eight times. What you said it needs as
a South Island hobbiton because you would just be making
money hand over fist. It doesn't matter where you put it,

(01:29:31):
but you put it somewhere around Juannaca or Queenstown or
anywhere like that, and honestly, you would just make billions. Literally,
you'd make billions. I don't know why they haven't done it.
Probaby one past ten. It's ten twenty four. Hello, Josephine,

(01:29:51):
this is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 31 (01:29:54):
Oh hello. I've just had three days and four nights
in the public hostel in christ Church because I've fell
down the stairs and the sun's more dramatic minut but
I broke a vert of her in my back. I
can still walk, luckily. But the staff were absolutely wonderful.

(01:30:18):
But some of the patients were not the same at all.
There was a man who made so much noise they
hardly got an his sleep all night, and the two
women either side of me spent a lot of time
chatting on their cell phones, even quite late until after
ten thirty at night. So I found it all quite hard.

Speaker 3 (01:30:42):
I wouldn't cope well with that.

Speaker 31 (01:30:46):
I'm exhausted. It's got to take me a while over it.
The staff were brilliant. They couldn't have been nicer, but ah,
some of the patients were just And I thought.

Speaker 3 (01:31:00):
And I guess josephin it's not the staff's job to
police behavior, because in newses, aren't they They're not there
to tell people to be quiet? Is it the way
it works?

Speaker 31 (01:31:08):
That's the way it worked in this ward anyway.

Speaker 3 (01:31:10):
Yes, that's probably the way it works everywhere.

Speaker 31 (01:31:13):
I feel they wouldn't have felt comfortable doing that, though,
But they did go on, some of them, you know,
really quite loud, as loud as I'm talking to you.

Speaker 3 (01:31:25):
Yes, And you can also me you can also meade
why they're doing that, because they're bored and they want
to talk to someone's I can. But yeah, people a
lot of people on cell phones have really loud talk
because they've got no idea how loud they talk.

Speaker 31 (01:31:36):
No, I don't think they do have. But after ten
o'clock at night and when people are meant to be
having a rest in the afternoon, I think it's rather selfish.

Speaker 3 (01:31:47):
Actually, ye know, you're no doubt about that. But people
don't people A lot of people have no self or
winds Josephine.

Speaker 31 (01:31:54):
Maybe they don't. They can't do.

Speaker 3 (01:31:55):
No did you manage to Did you manage to drown
the noise out with white noise or anything?

Speaker 31 (01:32:01):
No, I couldn't. I had some air plugs, but they
didn't work. No, nothing worked, especially the man who was
I think he was little Alzheimer's and walking about. The
poor nurses were having a terrible time with him. So
you couldn't drown that out. And it went on all

(01:32:22):
night till I don't know in the morning, early four
in the morning at least. So it was quite hard.

Speaker 3 (01:32:30):
It's really had. And the two chatters, the two women,
did they give up because they themselves must have needed sleep?
Did they themselves tap out a bit later on.

Speaker 31 (01:32:40):
About eleven o'clock, Yeah, yes, But to me that's a
bit late when you're in hospital and people are ill
and trying to talk.

Speaker 3 (01:32:48):
Absolutely, but they're probably worth of their visitors coming in,
wouldn't they?

Speaker 31 (01:32:53):
I don't know. I just found it a rather extraordinary experience.
I worked in a hospital for years in the occupation
of therapy departments, but in a ward it's very different.
And I just think people need to be a bit
more considerate of the other page.

Speaker 3 (01:33:11):
What happens anyway? That's my little How does it heal?
Does it just need rest of what happens to me?
They don't do that? Does it just no?

Speaker 31 (01:33:22):
I'm allowed to walk around, but I've gone on a
lot of painkillers. I've just got to be very very
careful how I walk.

Speaker 3 (01:33:30):
Or anything.

Speaker 31 (01:33:32):
I haven't done anything, not yet, and so I've just
got to wait. And I also discovered some pollups on
my lungs, which is even more scary. I think that
that's not going to be looked at again for three
months or something. And the physio wasn't particularly I asked
the physio because I wanted to know what to do

(01:33:54):
when I got home. Yes, but she didn't have the
mind on the job at all. She's spent about a
minute talking to me, and she obviously had something else
upsetting her. And when I I said, can I wring
you if I've got any questions when I get home,
she said no. I wasn't very impressed, but I luckily

(01:34:15):
have a friend who's got a daughter who's a physio.
When I got home, I rang her and she came
around and saw me and told me what I should
be doing.

Speaker 3 (01:34:22):
So what should what should you be doing? Walking or not?
Walk a line flat.

Speaker 31 (01:34:30):
Lying flat on my back and resting as much as
possible and walking enough to keep the blood circulation going.
So I've got stairs, I can walk up and down
if I'm very careful. But the trouble with me is
I rush around quite a lot for my age. I'm
going to be eighty and I rush around, and I've
got a big gun, and I've got a little dog,

(01:34:50):
and I've got a son who's has troubles, so it's
quite so I need to slow down. It's been a
good lesson, well.

Speaker 3 (01:35:01):
Dear toughlesson. Look, Joseph, I lovely to hear from me.
Thank you. It seems like a really tough lesson. And
you take care and be do what you've got to do,
which is standing up when you need to end, resting
flat when you need to appreciate that, get in touch. Oh,
This's been a good topic, the old hospitals. I didn't
pick that was a topic, but that's pilot err I
should have. It's a good ee, Marcus. Do you really

(01:35:22):
think limiting the crowd capacity to two thousand for a
concert will be Eddon Park will be worth it? What
does that mean that they're limiting at two thousand? Were
they tell me more about that text. If you have
a south oard of Hobbited, most of the billions would
go to the American formal as I're owned to the rights,
just as for the one in New Zealand. It would
employ locals, of course, that's right. Who owns Hobbit And

(01:35:46):
wouldn't Peter Jackson ow it didn't he buy into it?
I thought he was making the money. But you might
be right. But it doesn't matter. It's going to stimulate
the local economy, owned jortly by Sir Peter Jackson and
the Alexander family. They're the family that's started it. So no,

(01:36:07):
it doesn't appear to be owned overseas. Yep. So yeah, no,
I think it's the very opposite of overseas from what
I've just quickly read. Marcus. Not sure if anyone's mentioned

(01:36:32):
the song features by the Stranglers. Doubt it's side topic
Goodwood for Spurs the weekend London derby against west Ham.
Thank you for that. Someone says, how come no one
has to talk about Blue September the prostate cancer prostrate
cancer awareness cause. Well, people talk about what people talk
about with no hidden agenda. Promise you that it's just

(01:37:00):
what people ring up about. That's the way it works. Yes,
here's a thought. Maybe the all black half back position's
too dangerous and this game with contact and giants. Maybe
the little nuggarty guy at the back of the scrub
because they're all injured, they all get broken legs and stuff.

(01:37:20):
Maybe the game needs to change. Maybe need to put
a guy who's a big unit as half back. They
got to kick because they just all they all get damaged.
All of them are injured always, So have a think
about that. Yeah, And who's going to last longer, the
prime minister or the all black coach. It's what people

(01:37:43):
are chatting about today, twenty six away from eleven. It
is twenty four to eleven people and the lines there
are free if you want to talk about this or
anything else. Oh, that's a good point. The funding for
concerts certainly seems aimed for Eden Park. The christ Church

(01:38:05):
Stadium may well us out and they have fewer concerts
than expected. Will it be a lemon Well? I think
they are for a great deal of trouble attracting acts
for it. I mean, all the flight infrastructure comes out
of Auckland, so it's going to be easy to bring
a big band to Auckland. Of people to fly from Queenstown,
christ JD to Wellington in Vicago, all those places with
direct flights, you've got more accommodation there. I think. Look

(01:38:28):
at the trouble the Dunedan's having with their stadium. They
started with a histner, they have no one there lately.
It's a very sad kind of a affair. So yep,
But you know there's limited acts that can tour now,
are there. Well, there's limited ones that have got there
because the music market seems quite fragmented. There's limited there's
limited groups that can fill its stadium like that. I

(01:38:50):
don't even know who would. I mean Fletwood make Are
they've given up yet. I think they've done their last tour,
probably had split ends. They've done Electric Avenue and if
they came to Auckland. They could probably fill out tour
once or twice. Don't think the Aussie groups that would
do it. So twenty two from eleven and also the

(01:39:13):
tin peaches what is have given up on the local peaches.
People seem to be very concerned about tin fruit from China.
I don't know anything about that. That sounds to me
like a very easy thing to get people anxious about.
But I don't know if there any proof about that,

(01:39:34):
whether it's got pesticides, because I'm sure they would test
for that and there would be safe levels of pesticide residue.
I knows him more about that, because it sounds to
me to be that's an easy thing to save, it
hard to prove. I don't even know that peaches are

(01:39:56):
a fruit that needs a lot of spray. But yep, no,
it looks like there's a lot of studies the olders
have tied to ring them all up. I think beats
the fresh stuff. On the weekend on the sports show,
they're talking about win rates. So the same amount of
games and Robertson is on seventy one percent wins and

(01:40:17):
Foster was on seventy percent. As the same number of games,
there we go. Win rates are obsess about win rates,
don't they. This all depends on who you've played, and
that it's Marcus.

Speaker 32 (01:40:31):
Hello, oh, Marcus bringing up about the Hawks Bay peaches. Now,
the uniqueness of those peaches was that they were Golden
Queen peaches, of course, which are very orange. And when
you read the label, it'll have New Zealand product of

(01:40:51):
New Zealand plus overseas and usually that part is the
sugar because we don't produce sugar in New Zealand. It's
imported from Australia mostly, I think. But that's why our peaches,
what is peaches were so nice and so different from
overseas ones.

Speaker 3 (01:41:11):
Do we know what brand the overseas ones are?

Speaker 26 (01:41:14):
No?

Speaker 32 (01:41:15):
I don't know.

Speaker 24 (01:41:17):
That.

Speaker 32 (01:41:17):
There are lots of different types of peaches. I've got
threat two different ones at home, and I bottled my
own fruit. It's not hard.

Speaker 23 (01:41:29):
We have a.

Speaker 32 (01:41:31):
Couple of good vegetable Praises and New Plymouth that have
they're by crates of fruit and peaches, nectarines, believe it
or not. Sometimes we get apricots, but not very often.
But they're easy to process, you know. Just get the

(01:41:52):
good old Edmunds cookbook and follow their overflow method. It's
it's brainless, really not hard.

Speaker 3 (01:42:01):
I guess if you buy, I guess you're buying the
peaches to be a false economy though, because you wouldn't
able to do them cheap.

Speaker 32 (01:42:08):
About half the price.

Speaker 3 (01:42:13):
They never below six dollars six or seven dollars a kilo.
Are they in the shops?

Speaker 32 (01:42:17):
Yes, if they come and bulk they can be. I've
seen them advertised that pops up on Facebook and it
can be two dollars a kilo.

Speaker 3 (01:42:31):
I've never seen them down south.

Speaker 32 (01:42:34):
Get in the car and I go in and buy them.

Speaker 3 (01:42:36):
Okay, you never seen that cheap down here? Thank you, Byron.
It's Marcus. Welcome, Marcus.

Speaker 33 (01:42:42):
Hi, how are you good?

Speaker 3 (01:42:43):
Thank you Byron.

Speaker 33 (01:42:45):
That's good. Okay. So I've been listening to you in
the background, Will I've been cleaning, and a lot of
people have been going on about the teachers and they're
concerned about bsinessize, et cetera, and their fear about uh,

(01:43:07):
the the peach is not not being a New Zealand anymore.

Speaker 23 (01:43:15):
Uh.

Speaker 33 (01:43:17):
For instance, with with stone fruit, it's it's all about
sulfur and copper. That's the name spray that you use
which are both will gang and most countries use those.

Speaker 3 (01:43:31):
So it's a very for the sprays for pists.

Speaker 33 (01:43:39):
They're not pesticide, but they're therefore fungal and ye ungle diseases.
And yes, so they're many for that. Yeah, yeah, there's
going to be pesticides on all of our fruits. We
have to spray our fruit. Unless you're a gannack Genek

(01:44:07):
farm such as the organic vinyard, you you're going to
have to have this design.

Speaker 3 (01:44:16):
I think people are worried about that. People are worried
about whether China uses pesticides that would be banned in
New Zealand. I think that's kind of what some of
the concerns about. So I said that again, I think
listening to the people, this is not one of my concerns,
but the people's concerns have been that there will be
pesticides that they use in China. A pesticides that New
Zealand that we've seen have been dangerous or castigenical ones

(01:44:38):
that are advised against using.

Speaker 33 (01:44:41):
The historic ones pattern historic ones, I.

Speaker 3 (01:44:49):
Don't know, I don't know what they are, don't I
don't know about the but they but they're worried that
China would be using pesticides that are allowed to be
used in New Zealand.

Speaker 33 (01:45:00):
But as you've noted throughout your show tonight, most products
say then throw frozen fruits or canned fruits. They often
contain products from China, South Africa, etc. So it's not
all just New Zealand peaches we're talking about here, it's not.

(01:45:26):
I don't know why people are so afraid about it.
New Zealand is an export market.

Speaker 3 (01:45:34):
Export hang on Byron, because you become quite adamant. People
are worried because it seems as though the canned peaches
from Hastings are made with important ingredients, which is sugar,
and the local things is the local fruit. So whereas

(01:45:55):
the ones from China are not used local fruit, and
the ones from South Africa have not used local fruits.
That's what they're concerned about. That the ones from China
have pested asides that are no longer they are not
accepted in New Zealand.

Speaker 33 (01:46:08):
Okay, I didn't understand that.

Speaker 3 (01:46:12):
Well, you were saying that all the ten fruit has
all the ten fruit and has produced from China, and
it seems as though it doesn't have produce from China.

Speaker 33 (01:46:20):
I didn't say, oh, I said, you know, a lot, would.

Speaker 3 (01:46:26):
I don't think, okay, but as far as ten peatures,
the peaches apparently are growing in the Hawk's Bay.

Speaker 33 (01:46:31):
Okay, all right, but look at one point I was
also wanted to make was that New Zealand prides itself
and being an exports nation, and we can't just sit
here and go, oh yeah, let's just export all our things.
We're also going to give other people a chance, or

(01:46:52):
other nations a chance, so export these goods as well.
They're going to people. For instance, So Africa, they were
very hard in there, any orchards and there the venues,
et cetera. So the two to get that produce out
to the world and shouldn't use the illnets. Appreciate that.

Speaker 24 (01:47:16):
So do you know.

Speaker 3 (01:47:21):
Do you know something about the way they produce fruit
orchards in South Africa? A little bit, yes, But how
have you been there?

Speaker 33 (01:47:32):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (01:47:33):
Okay, did you work on them?

Speaker 21 (01:47:35):
No?

Speaker 3 (01:47:36):
Okay, because I don't know anything about orchards in South Africa.
Don't even know they grew fruit like that.

Speaker 33 (01:47:41):
Well, it's you know, places places like franchock or selling bosh.
It's it's it's a very similar climate to set Otago
so that's side of the wine industry is so big
there in the stone fruit industry is so big there.

(01:48:03):
It's got a bit warmer over here in South Africa
over the last decade or so. So so in those
areas though, financial rather and and other other nuts, etc.

Speaker 3 (01:48:18):
Of Okay, Borron, thank you. Thirteen to eleven, ten away
from eleven. A lot of texts coming through Marcus. I'm
from communist China, a rural village that grew grows fruit vegies.

(01:48:38):
I can confirm the use of pesticides weak killers that
have been banned since the eighties and the West are
encouraged to be used by the Communist resem, especially on
fruit trees. Thank you for that. So there we go.

(01:49:00):
Someone's complaining about symbols on their local body election form.
They say, Marcus, regarding symbols, was supposed to be the
voting with tear or the violent offensive symbols, unusual or
contrived use of curves, slants garish for unusual colors, are strange,
unusually light blue color. Yeah, you've lost me now, peaches.

(01:49:25):
Regarding peaches, I've noticed a big difference in taste. The
ones I've got at the moment must be from China.
They have no flavor. Yesterday I purchaed a jar of
peaches from you World. They are Greek, beautiful peaches. Also
the All Blacks, what a fantastic game of rugby league.
That wasn't the weekend too. That was Canvra against the Broncos.

(01:49:45):
That was extraordinary. But maybe the game's too tough for
half back because the little blokes they're getting hammered to
much because they're always breaking when we need to phase
out the position. That might be something you want to mention.
Do come through if you want to talk Marcus till twelve.
I was interested in that story today about the person

(01:50:07):
that locked up their child lost three of their teeth
and they put them in milk to take them to
the hospital, and the hospital seed they couldn't reuse them.
But they're wrong. But I'd never thought that that must
be a common thing to put teeth and milk? Is
it when they fall out? That's something I'd never heard before,

(01:50:28):
that a real deal had a myth? Could someone tell
me if that's the real deal? Is it a myth?
If you lose a teeth, do you put it in milk?
I never heard that, so I might have some more
information seven away from eleven. Actually, I take that text
about the person of grabbing a villigion comments China with

(01:50:48):
a grain of salt. To look at the other text.
I'm not quite sure if that's the real deal. I
can't fact check that one, but it's a pretty big
claim he's made, so just be cautious with that. How
are we going on the roads? People? No updates? Is
nothing I need to know tonight. It's fine and thank you. Also,

(01:51:11):
any other Yews you've got in your area that's breaking,
usually us know what that's happening. Oh, by the way,
the All Black halfback has broken his leg nick Noah
Hotham a fractured fibula his first test start too, knocked
to the head and injured his ankle. I mean, you've

(01:51:32):
got big players like the like these massive units and
the massive units in South Africa. You've got a half
back to try and stop the which they've got to
do because they play their positions. Of course they're going
to get injured. It's become too much of a vulnerable spot.

(01:51:54):
Cam Roy Guard Court is rather Findlay, Christy Hotham and
Kyle Preston. How many those are injureds it's just find
that's not injured. He seems nugget. He doesn't he Marcus
Local body candiate profile books. You can see who has
written their profile with gpt is it has flaws that

(01:52:14):
shows longer dashes every few sentences.

Speaker 24 (01:52:18):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (01:52:18):
By the way, the local body elections are on vote wisely.
If an adult tooth gets knocked out, put it in milk.
Milk keeps the root cells alive until you see a dentist.
Don't scrub the tooth, don't let it dry out, and
try to get dental help within an hour. Baby teeth
are not re implanted. That's good information, thank you. That

(01:52:40):
person might be a dentist. Traffic backed up southbound motorway,
drewy road works where it's not always the case these
days to disaster that motorway. Oh, in the All Blacks,
everyone's an expert. When it comes to the All Blacks,
I'm not. I've read all the columns. We've got no
idea what's going on. Sometimes we're okay, sometimes we're not

(01:53:02):
that good. Maybe the game is just quite random. I
also want to talk about the remarkable game of rugby
league last night between Canberra and the Broncos. Extremely good.
I haven't seen any memes about the All Blacks. There's
one meme with them saying they're not getting paid for
the second half of not turning up. And Verity Johnson,

(01:53:23):
a columnists for Stuff, has written a column called New
Zealand is broken and you're dumb to stay how old
she is? I don't say that in a diminishing way.
I just want to know she's one of that age
of the people that are leaving.

Speaker 12 (01:53:35):
Good Evening, Ted, Good evening, Marcus. So, I guess you've
had a good pounding on the rugby. I've only just changed.

Speaker 3 (01:53:42):
We've had a bit of a pound and were coming
after the sports topics. I give the non sports people
a bit of a break. But there's yeah, I can
kind of tell from where eyes that that people do
feel quite strongly about this.

Speaker 12 (01:53:54):
Ted, Okay, yeah, right. I guess there'll be a few
coaching jobs up full of grabs within the next couple
of weeks, and a new change of a captain probably.

Speaker 3 (01:54:07):
Well, they said the captain. They said that the captaincy
duties might be diluting, it might be too much from
de Cope, but they needs to go back to he's
a great player. But he's not a great player.

Speaker 12 (01:54:19):
And captain no, you don't see him doing a lot
no captaincy. What is on the field day?

Speaker 8 (01:54:26):
Hey?

Speaker 18 (01:54:26):
The other thing?

Speaker 3 (01:54:27):
The other thing? You sound like you're closer watcher than
I am.

Speaker 12 (01:54:32):
It might be here.

Speaker 3 (01:54:33):
Well, I've got kids and they're doing different stuff, and
it's always a bit of a They said that the
All Blacks were getting involved with sledging and disrespecting the
other players. They went the exact words. Did you see that?

Speaker 12 (01:54:48):
Yeah, there was a lot of that nigally stuff going
on the other night. I saw the referee tape. Yeah,
there at a side and tell them, look, you guys
play their play game and I'll referee it.

Speaker 3 (01:54:58):
Yes, so that's not all becks are. Well, we are
a bit yeappy, but I don't think we've been sledging
the other players.

Speaker 12 (01:55:05):
But the and we get behind it, but it gets
a little bit worse.

Speaker 3 (01:55:09):
Yeah, we didn't. We didn't cope with any dignity, did we.

Speaker 12 (01:55:12):
It was I couldn't. I turned the TV down at
half time and made a cup of tea, and when
I came back, I couldn't believe what the hell I
was saying. Yeah, I started to laugh and the ladder.
The more the game went on the ladder, I laughed, Well,
I just couldn't. I just couldn't believe it.

Speaker 3 (01:55:30):
I was saying things to the kids, it must be
his turn to school now, it did seem but like that,
they're giving everyone to.

Speaker 12 (01:55:35):
Go and let the finish. The last two tries, I
reckon the All Blacks did give in. They just gave up,
you know, for a Ford to run through the back line,
and that was unbelievable, untouched. That was incredible. And one
of the first things I heard Jason Pine say on
the radio yesterday when I tuned in was the lineouts

(01:55:55):
were a shambles. And I thought I talked to you
about shambles left the last game, so I was quite
happy about that.

Speaker 3 (01:56:03):
I don't know why. I don't know how you get
line out so wrong. I mean, it's a pretty practice.

Speaker 12 (01:56:09):
Well there's a few things that weren't doing in the
line outs, just as just my bloody just by looking
at them. And that's once the lineout's formed. You don't
change puzzies. You stay where you are. And they should
do away with lifting. We didn't have to have a
bloody players lifted away up in the air twenty thirty
years ago. The guys were tall enough and the athletic

(01:56:30):
enough to jump up and get the ball themselves. And
that's where half the problem is, because when they run
from the front to the back and the back to
the front and all get mixed up and all fall
down in a heap. When someone gets the ball, that's
when the bloody. That's when half the trouble starts.

Speaker 3 (01:56:45):
I would have thought. I thought that lifting was always illegal,
and they made it legal too easier to enforce. I
don't think you could lift in your day.

Speaker 12 (01:56:54):
No, that's what I say. They didn't used to lift
nine years ago.

Speaker 3 (01:56:57):
But I'm saying they didn't used to lift because it
was illegal.

Speaker 12 (01:57:01):
Oh it was it?

Speaker 3 (01:57:02):
Well, I should have Maybe someone could confirm that to me.
That's what I thought. But you'd know more than me.

Speaker 12 (01:57:09):
We had tiny white and me and who was a
tall all black from up north. He said, bloody will
be able to jump up and get the boar himself.

Speaker 3 (01:57:19):
Ian Jones, Ian Jones. Yeah, so I think it was
always illegally, just changed.

Speaker 12 (01:57:26):
It, okay, Well right, well a list might be just
a good wake up call to the hiding that they
got that maybe there are some changes due and we
better get on with it pretty quick.

Speaker 3 (01:57:40):
Nice to hear from you. I appreciate that.

Speaker 12 (01:57:42):
Just a minute. One of the worst things I think
I heard was after the game and they asked Scott Barrett,
you know what went wrong? And all he said was
we just didn't get it right. He couldn't even compliment
the spring box on the way they played or anything.
So it was a pretty bad bloody look as far
as I was concerned.

Speaker 3 (01:58:00):
Yeah, I've never heard people actually question the All Black's
character as much as they have today. The last time
they kept they questioned the Allbacks character was when Tane
Randall got asked after losing the World Cup if they're
looking forward to that player off game for third or
fourth and he diminished that. He was just called it
a bad time and they really killed him for that.
But yeah, yeah, I'm hearing you. Thanks Ted. Keep going

(01:58:23):
sixteen past eleven, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty, Nigel,
it's Marcus, Welcome.

Speaker 27 (01:58:28):
Good evening, Marcus. Yeah, I think Scott Robinson is it
the current all right coach? He's isn't he contracted through
to twenty twenty seven, the next World Cup at least.

Speaker 25 (01:58:46):
Yeah, I can.

Speaker 3 (01:58:47):
I can confirm that for you.

Speaker 27 (01:58:49):
Yeah, whereas going back to our prime minister, he could
be rolled in the first term as prime minister, but
I doubt it if you go back and Tye, I
wasn't Jim Bolger's second term that Jenny Shipley in.

Speaker 3 (01:59:05):
The back first time a current a sitting from minister
was rolled, that's right?

Speaker 27 (01:59:11):
Yeah? Is that the first time ever in New Zealand?

Speaker 3 (01:59:14):
Apparently according to Audrey Young and The Herald the other day.
I was reading that, that's what she said, that it's
very unlikely for that to happen. Shipley did it when
he was away. He's overseas, wasn't he.

Speaker 27 (01:59:24):
That's right, that's right. I didn't realize that was the
first time it happened.

Speaker 3 (01:59:27):
Yeah, that's that's I'll check there as I can.

Speaker 27 (01:59:33):
H It's interesting.

Speaker 3 (01:59:36):
Yeah, it is interesting, isn't it. But yeah, I don't
know who's going to go first, Robinson or Luxen.

Speaker 27 (01:59:42):
I had another one to its what about the Minister
of House same and Brown?

Speaker 3 (01:59:46):
Well, yeah, I mean know the stories from that, the
stories about health are terrible, aren't they. I mean it's
the most difficult, it's the most difficult portfolio a lot
of people don't cope with it, but some people cope
with it very well.

Speaker 27 (01:59:58):
Shane Retty wasn't in it for long?

Speaker 3 (01:59:59):
Was he not long at all? Not long at all?
Clearly seemed to be out of his depth. And now
you don't hear.

Speaker 27 (02:00:06):
From he Well he was. He's a doctor, and a
medical doctor. I thought he would have been good at
the job.

Speaker 3 (02:00:13):
Well do you go, Well, clearly he wasn't. I it's
a different skills. Politics is quite a complicated thing. I'm
not saying that medicine is not complicated. But I've just
got this article from Audrey Yang up for you. Yes,
it just happened once in the past.

Speaker 27 (02:00:28):
Mm hmm. Okay, But didn't you did you think when
this fresh government won in twenty twenty three that, oh,
we're going to have a good minister of health there
he's a medical doctor.

Speaker 3 (02:00:42):
No, I don't think. I don't think medical doctors in
the past have been great ministers over the years. But yeah, anyway,
and I will thank you Steve Marcus welcome.

Speaker 2 (02:00:51):
Well.

Speaker 23 (02:00:53):
Yeah, I was wondering if I could talk about the
assassination of the god Charlie Cook. Sure it was a
on the internet. There's a speech by his wife talking
about the issues and everything. It's one of the best
speeches I've ever heard.

Speaker 3 (02:01:11):
There's wide speech. Maybe maybe she'll become a force in politics.

Speaker 9 (02:01:16):
Now.

Speaker 23 (02:01:18):
I don't know what she wants to continue his organization
which is called Turning Point, and she said she's not
going to let the fact that he got assassinated stop
the work of what they're doing. But don't think just
on a local point. You know the fire station in
Newtown which attended their Locus lodge while about five people

(02:01:41):
got killed with him. Yep, he wenkedin well, going past
the Newtown fire station. On the front door of the
station with the engines come out, the crews have put
a sign on the inside so you can read it,
and it says, which the fact that we're unable to

(02:02:06):
fall man the engines due to staff shortages. Dire situation.

Speaker 3 (02:02:12):
Sure, and I think it's complicated because they're in they're
they're up for they're up for contract negotiations as well.
I think that's what happened with the fire service.

Speaker 8 (02:02:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 23 (02:02:24):
Well, the thing is like the government there's so many
that it can't even provide form for the fire engines.

Speaker 2 (02:02:33):
You know.

Speaker 3 (02:02:34):
Yeah, I think it's probably more to that stupid. Thanks Dean.
It's Marcus. Welcome, good evening.

Speaker 4 (02:02:40):
Hey Marcus says it going. I just thought i'd report.
I've just been at the at the Emmy Awards. Oh good, Yeah,
how we're all dressed up?

Speaker 3 (02:02:51):
How was How was there? Were you up to something?

Speaker 4 (02:02:56):
Not this time? Maybe next year?

Speaker 3 (02:02:58):
Okay, but.

Speaker 4 (02:03:01):
You'd have hated it, but you know, because I know
I know how you well, But yeah, it was. It
was kind of an interesting thing. People go in and out.
Mostly people go out and and and then get nominated
and then leave again.

Speaker 3 (02:03:21):
Yeah. Oh, because you don't sit there. You don't stay there.

Speaker 4 (02:03:26):
No, because it's all it's all broadcast live. So it's
like people that you come and if there's a break,
and then if you leave and you want to get
a glass of champagne or something, and then you know,
you leave again and then you come back in.

Speaker 3 (02:03:42):
Do they have professional people that do they have people
that sit in seats?

Speaker 4 (02:03:47):
Not so much. I think there's just more fans. It's
more fans, but you know, you know, you have to
buy a buy a ticket all that and be in
the academy. But I thought you might be interested that
the studio with Seth Rogen like really yeah, worked most

(02:04:07):
of the most of the awards.

Speaker 3 (02:04:12):
Yeah, have you seen that?

Speaker 4 (02:04:14):
Yes, yeah, yeah, I've watched it. It's really good.

Speaker 3 (02:04:17):
Okay, I don't know, and I don't does it here, Dan, Yeah,
I don't know if it's been here or not. In
New Zealand.

Speaker 4 (02:04:24):
You can get it on our Apple Apple TV.

Speaker 3 (02:04:28):
Okay, okay, and you'd get that in New Zealand here,
would you?

Speaker 23 (02:04:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (02:04:33):
Yep, yep, have a look at that.

Speaker 3 (02:04:35):
What's it? What's it called?

Speaker 8 (02:04:38):
Mhm? The studio?

Speaker 3 (02:04:40):
Who was the best, who was the best speaker?

Speaker 4 (02:04:44):
There are quite a few good people that came in
as as good presenters, you know, ones that had had
won in previous years. I think you know who's who's
your girl from wait this season two? You know she

(02:05:07):
presented one.

Speaker 3 (02:05:08):
The one from the gene ed.

Speaker 4 (02:05:11):
No, I'm the elder elder woman. Oh yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:05:20):
Yeah, and she's on legally, she's on legally blonde yep, okay, yep, yeah.
And then Jennifer College.

Speaker 4 (02:05:29):
Yes, thank you, thank you. I should have called you
knowing these names.

Speaker 3 (02:05:34):
But right now, that's good.

Speaker 4 (02:05:38):
Yeah, it was cool. So in the Peacock Theater and
Everrandma's you know, smacking each other's backs and wearing sequence
dresses and all of that kind of stuff. You would
have hated that.

Speaker 3 (02:05:50):
Marcus, thanks for that day. Nice to hear from your
twenty six past eleven Edward Williams is emailed high Marcus Nolsha.
Harper's Flicking Center for Big Concerts had a history of
many big shows back when North chal City Council back
the stadium constantly. The whose Share the Cause brought Adams Santana,
Cliff Richard Living and John Roger Waters. So it's rubbish

(02:06:12):
at Auckland needs Eden Park in order to be able
to stage big concerts. Yes, I think it's performed of
what the government to do, and I don't think they
really care. They just want to change the They changed
the narrative and try and front fort some of the
news stories because there's no good news coming out, is there.
Particularly with that reporter writing with that opinion piece about
people leaving New Zealand. It was pretty hard hitting that one.

(02:06:37):
I didn't bother reading it. I read bits of it.
Actually I didn't get the whole gist of it. Yes,
it was a fairly full on opinion piece. New Zealand
is broken and you are dumb to stay? Or are
you dumb to stay? It was all about New Zealand

(02:07:00):
is broken and you're dumb to stay. An Auckland based
writer and business owner, she says, I guarantee that not
one person of the two hundred and one leaving us
in today is thinking of coming back. And she goes
in and say, thank god I made it out, so
she must have left. When kiwis leave, fifty percent go

(02:07:20):
to Wai mostly do exactly the same thing they do here,
only for more money and to pay ten thousand year
less for groceries. But you know what's sad, they're not
going in search of adventure. The going because it feels
stupid and impossible to stay. Basically, people used to leave
because they were pulled to bright a, bigger foreign cities
with warm beer and exotic pickled snacks. Now it feels

(02:07:42):
like people are leaving because they're being pushed out of
fact is my most recent friend to leave. Put it,
New Zealand's broken, You're dumb to stay. Our post COVID
economic recovery may have been amongst the worst in the OECD,
and our consumer confidence is not rebounded. More importantly, no
one thinks the government can fix it. We're not even

(02:08:03):
listening to whatever line gets tried out about going for growth,
just voting with our feet. And to be honest, Luxon
gives a distinct impression he's already planning his own overseas exit.
You can see the dreamy, faraway look in his eyes
when he gets on a plane to look at a
man planning his international speaking careers circuit. If he lives
in your enoughter he finishes his PM stint, you can
paint me national blue and call me Quinn of the Smurfs. Jeepers. Hello,

(02:08:28):
Jane Marcus.

Speaker 13 (02:08:30):
Oh are you there?

Speaker 15 (02:08:31):
Yes?

Speaker 8 (02:08:31):
Jen?

Speaker 13 (02:08:33):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (02:08:33):
God no, I wouldn't get you.

Speaker 13 (02:08:38):
On my phone anyway, nice listening to you. It's an
interesting but anyway, I'm ringing up to give you a
recipe for peach oh cleaning out to my neck? Do

(02:09:01):
you want it or not?

Speaker 8 (02:09:02):
How many?

Speaker 3 (02:09:03):
How long will it take?

Speaker 13 (02:09:05):
Not long?

Speaker 3 (02:09:06):
How many ingredients? How ingredients is it?

Speaker 2 (02:09:08):
God?

Speaker 12 (02:09:09):
Oh?

Speaker 13 (02:09:10):
About six?

Speaker 3 (02:09:11):
Okay, we'll give it to us.

Speaker 13 (02:09:13):
Okay, fifteen grams of butter softened and you beat that
with half a cup of sugar until it's creamed. Oh no,
festival get a tin of peaches, put them on a
cathorele dish, shove it in the oven at one hundred
and eighty degrees. The heat up the fruit while that's cooking.

(02:09:38):
Then mix up with sponge mixture, so fifteen grams of butter,
half a cup of sugar creamed. Then you add one egg.
Beat that well, then then one cup of flour. Do
that in gently with one teaspoon of baking powder. And

(02:10:02):
by the time you've mixed all that up at the
fruit is heat it up, pour the mixture over the fruit,
shove it back in the oven for one hour at
one hundred and eighty and it's the most delicious, crispy
on the top and service with homemade custard. Or you

(02:10:23):
can buy the cart and I've sinned it out so
it's pourable and sprinkling ice and sugar on the tops.
Nice tooth.

Speaker 3 (02:10:33):
Did you make that risk yourself, Jane? Is it from
a book?

Speaker 13 (02:10:37):
From Edmund's cookery book?

Speaker 3 (02:10:39):
You could have just given a cent I order got
the page, but thank you.

Speaker 2 (02:10:41):
Jan.

Speaker 3 (02:10:42):
Twenty seven to twelve. Hoo, Mary, Hi.

Speaker 16 (02:10:46):
Marcus just wanted to clear up a few things. I've
got a family of ten altogether, I've been living in
Australia for years. Everything's going to pack over there as well, mate.
The more oh yeah, the mores are clothing from the
biggest shops have just closed it yours. No, it's not,

(02:11:08):
it's not that great. I'm in touch with my daughter
every week.

Speaker 3 (02:11:12):
And which part of Australia.

Speaker 16 (02:11:15):
There are well, there's some in on the Gold Coast,
some in Brisbane, and my son lives in Sunshine Coaster,
and so they know what they're talking about.

Speaker 3 (02:11:28):
Honey, if any then come back.

Speaker 16 (02:11:33):
No, well they're come to see me, of course, but
they're they're not moving back.

Speaker 3 (02:11:36):
Tells you something, doesn't it?

Speaker 16 (02:11:37):
No, no, no reason, No, no, no, they're they're well seasoned.
And three of my granddaughters are adults now and they've
got children. But no, they're no, it's just all happening
before their eyes, a bit like it.

Speaker 10 (02:11:50):
Is here, you know.

Speaker 3 (02:11:52):
But although they're not leaving everything going on, they're not
leaving Australian drives to come to New Zealand, are they.

Speaker 16 (02:12:00):
No? No, oh no, love, no, no, well we've already
have been over the area since she was young and
all that sort of ten. And how are your.

Speaker 3 (02:12:10):
Boys, beauty well do very well.

Speaker 16 (02:12:14):
Yeah, that's good all I do. Thanks for listening.

Speaker 3 (02:12:18):
Nice, nice to talk to Mary. Thank you. Shame on
Verity Johnson, what a try hard. We are not dumb
to leave here. I have spent twenty years overseas, came
home with three kids, all adults employed own how's bring
up kids there? Many countries are struggling, as are we,
but we love our country and remain loyal. I don't
know we are. I mean, I think people are pretty
unhappy here and they're not seeing any change, and I

(02:12:40):
feel it's a government that's not listening. Call me Quinn.
The Smurth's loll sounds like something i'd say, Yeah, lux
It doesn't matter what he says now. The country just
wants him gone. Thanks him for service. Sure, but he
can fall on his sword before he gets it served
to him. Is it true that we as taxpayers paid

(02:13:03):
over forty thousand to chopper Luxe and Albanesi and a
Pavlo upper Mountain from Queenstown. Yeah, that's right. They did
no way a request on that and that was the cost.
And it was a weird thing as well because Albanies
he came across to Australia with a lot from Australia
with a lot of reporters, which would have been a
great time to actually profile Queenstown and do some sort

(02:13:27):
of scenic shots, but none of them went up there
with that scenic thing, so none of the story was
reported enough in Australia. So yeah, because Luxon said we're
not a giant atm of cash and then he spent
forty thousand dollars for that helicopter trip. So there's been
a fever to pushback about that one, and I imagine

(02:13:47):
that'll be one of the stories that people will that
will go on people talk because one of those easier
things you can think. You know, it's a bit like
the flag referendum. People don't always understand the nuances of government.
But there's one thing I think, Gee, that's a lot
for Pavlova, And that's probably in some ways why the
reporters went for that thing, because it's one of those
stories that people can kind of comprehend. It's a lot

(02:14:09):
of money. Oh way, e one hundred and eighty in
ten eight if you want to talk about that too.
The days of taxpayer has been treated like a bottomless
eight m are over that's what he said, if you
say something like that, that's always going to come back

(02:14:30):
to bite you. Yep. Of course there's also in the
claiming of the accommodation supplement too, when that was brought
out that fifty two thousand, twenty to twelve. Dave, Hello, Hello, Margarets. Yes,
Hi Dave, how I God, thank you.

Speaker 9 (02:14:51):
I just wondered what you sort of thought about the
like absolute saturation desperation after this small word class has
been quite huge.

Speaker 3 (02:15:02):
Evident you're meaning about. Well, I've read all the columns
that people have written, right Phil Gifford and Gregil Paul
and Ant Straw, and everyone's had to go because I
guess that's their job. And the only thing I've really
understood is they've all said we're terrible under the high ball,
and then they've said that Graham Henry once employed an

(02:15:25):
assie rules coach twenty years ago to fix that. But
I think it's more that we need more than an
assy rules coach.

Speaker 9 (02:15:32):
Yeah. I don't know, It's just I kind of like,
you know, people are absolutely gutted about it and all
that sort of stuff, but it's like we didn't lose
to them twice. Like the way these sort of people
are so devastated about it, and it's just like, yeah,

(02:15:54):
spring Box were red hot and there's not there's not
a lot being said about that. Is actually how good
Springboks were.

Speaker 18 (02:16:02):
I think were I think.

Speaker 3 (02:16:03):
What people I think people have focused on and and
you might have missed that, but this is the worst
All Blacks loss ever.

Speaker 9 (02:16:16):
Yeah yeah, but I think that's been coming for a
couple of years. Yeah yeah, I mean yeah, I just
thought that they did beat them last week and they
played well and it was it was an amazing game
of rugby, Like no one's sort of talking about that

(02:16:37):
part of it, like it was. It was pretty great
to watch, even though the result was pretty horrible.

Speaker 3 (02:16:44):
You know, well wasn't It was an exciting game to
watch because it wasn't close.

Speaker 9 (02:16:51):
Nah, but it was Yeah, I don't know, to see
sometimes when you see any sports team play so well,
you know, like people and there's something to see, you know.

Speaker 3 (02:17:04):
I enjoyed watching and it wasn't boring.

Speaker 9 (02:17:07):
Yeah yeah, yeah. And it's just that Rassi Erasthmus is
one hell of a coach, isn't he.

Speaker 3 (02:17:15):
Oh unbelievable.

Speaker 9 (02:17:18):
Yeah yeah, like stuff like that, and then the way
he was in the press conference. I mean he was
just like, yeah, well we lost fifty seven mil to
you guys. He was all about just yeah, sort of
what goes around comes around. You know.

Speaker 3 (02:17:30):
He seems quite a character.

Speaker 9 (02:17:33):
He is quite a character. And that thing with Sam
Cain was quite awesome. Did you hear what he did
there when Sam Cain had a broken jaw? No, well no,
I hit it. Well he had a broken neck, didn't
he Yeah, stuck in a South African hospital not knowing anyone,

(02:17:53):
and RUSSI went to go and see him.

Speaker 3 (02:17:55):
Yeah that's good.

Speaker 9 (02:17:57):
Yeah, that's that's a pretty awesome person. An't know, but yeah,
it's just been been interesting, like how how devastated people are.
It was was like then it's kind of torpedo in
the America's cupboat or something, you.

Speaker 7 (02:18:12):
Know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (02:18:13):
Yeah, I don't. I haven't picked up on their devastation
mainly just to part have you? Have you if people
spoken to you how upset they were?

Speaker 15 (02:18:22):
Oh more?

Speaker 9 (02:18:23):
No, actually more just on the radio, Okay, Like I think,
you know, I think I think we'll bounce back. There's
there are some pretty scary things going on in rugby.
Like nobody, nobody really wants to play it anymore. That's
not going to help. How team is it?

Speaker 3 (02:18:40):
Well, they were playing basketball, are they?

Speaker 4 (02:18:43):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (02:18:43):
Well that was that was what I was just about
to say. So one of the guys from school was
saying on Facebook, like, you know, I'm forty seven, so
that generation. There used to be nine rugby teams at
our high school and three basketball teams, and now there's
something like Yeah, it's like it's like switched over, you

(02:19:04):
know what I mean.

Speaker 24 (02:19:05):
Yeah, I think that tells.

Speaker 3 (02:19:09):
You a bit, you know, because the numbers playing it
are much much smaller.

Speaker 6 (02:19:19):
Yeah, yeah, I guess you are just kind of they've
got But I still think I still think we've got
a chance. We would come back. That series next year
will be will be an awesome thing and it's been
a long time coming, you know, you know about that
tell me more so next year there isn't a rugby Championship.

(02:19:42):
There is a Springbok tour, well, a tour to South
Africa by the All Blacks. Well they'll play Curry Cup
teams and stuff. So it's like the Lions Tour, you know,
like an old school tour. They're doing that before the
year before every World Cup yep. But the other thing
that that I thought is awesome about the rugby lately

(02:20:05):
is how close is the championship?

Speaker 3 (02:20:08):
Yeah, it's great, that's exciting. It's great. How were Largentina
are doing because they're ready contenders now?

Speaker 8 (02:20:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (02:20:15):
Yeah, I mean there's nothing in any of them. Everybody's
beaten everybody once sort of thing.

Speaker 2 (02:20:22):
You know, they've swapped over.

Speaker 3 (02:20:23):
You know, leave it there, David, thanks so much for that.
I'm just going to go to the Gregor Paul because
Gregor Paul read unleashes, he's ill and held rugby columnists.
Rugby is just one more part of New Zealand and decline,
one more thing eroding. While everyone deludes themselves otherwise delusions
of grand europhaps. The geographic hasn't been a small estate
of island nation the far reach to the Pacific Ocean.

(02:20:45):
It's easy to develop a superior superiority complex when there
are so few external factors to regularly make comparisons against.
This is maybe one You then can tell the world
it's cleaning green while it repopulates its urban corflic with
double cab buttes and plants are drill into the ocean floor. Indeed,
anywhere it suspects of fossil fuel may be buried. This

(02:21:05):
is why it can see hundreds of thousands of its
best and bright us leave for Australia, but gives visas
to a few digital nomads and mad millionaires escaping what
they think is impending armageddon and say New z in
as the place the rest of the world wants to
come to live. And Rugby is just an extension of
this overconfident mindset that refuses to accept the contravidence that
has built to say the all becks have been sucked

(02:21:25):
back into the paloton and don't necessarily have the innate
qualities and preternatural instincts to find their way back out.

Speaker 24 (02:21:35):
Ja.
