Episode Transcript

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

Speaker 2 (00:11):
A'd be greasing's welcome. So it seems like if very
much a tsunami Wednesday, a lot to unpicked with this
come Chukka. Why do we know that? Why is that
name famous? As soon as I saw camp Chatka, I
know that for some reason. Was there a famous battle there?
Something happened there, didn't it? Or was there a meteorite shower?
Feel I need to know something about camp Checker. Anyway,

(00:32):
this has far reaching ramifications. What's happening today, and let
me talk a little bit about that and bluff right.
Southport have ordered all ships out of the harbor, so
they're taking them to sea. So they're taking that very seriously.

(00:53):
I don't know whether it's the shape of the harbor
means that it's particularly vulnerable to surges, because I thought
perhaps it faces well I don't know, but anyway, that's
what's happening there. So ships are going out. Sea Scouts
has been canceled tonight, so the kids to got town
sea Scouts. So it's quite a big deal. And that's
a long way away from Comchatka, A long, long, long

(01:17):
way away. So people taking this very seriously. I'm also
curious to know who got the beep. Some people got
the beep, some people didn't get the beep. I got
the beep. Vanessa in town didn't get the beep. Do
you just get the beep if you're in a coastal area.
Could someone tell me about that? Or did everyone get
the beep? Because she's on Spark and she got no beep.

(01:37):
I was driving at the time and that wasn't good.
I was driving a manual. Well that's difficult. It's hard
enough trying to read your text driving a manually alone
trying to work out when alert is anyway that happened,
So if you know something about that, let me know.
The other thing is chem Chatka famous I suppose all
to do with that war in Corea was I think
they came down through that. That's probably I unfamiliar with

(01:59):
it anyway, cam Chatka anyway. The other thing that I
am weary of when comes to the tsunami on if
you're living on boats, let me know how that's going
for you. Are you consumed, are you worried? Are you curious?
If you are on a boat. The other thing that
I think probably needs to be talked about with the
tsunami and what's for every good With the tsunamis. We've

(02:20):
got a little warning, we've got twelve hours. The tsunamis
that are deadly are the ones when you've just got
moments and that's when the pusic gets trench unfolds. But
this one, the system seemed to work well without alarm.
The other thing that I think probably is problematic, and
I've actually got seen in on the studio and that's

(02:41):
got the headline tsunami waves that you are sures. I
don't think they should be called tsunami waves because they're
not a wave. There are a wall of water with
a lot of water behind them, whereas a wave is
just kind of a narrow band of water that goes
and recedes. A tsunami surge is something for every different
there's a lot of water behind it. I think when

(03:02):
we call them tsunami waves, we're making out it something
a lot less than it really is. So yes, if
you want to talk anything sounami rated, let's cover that
off what we can. Are you affected? Did you get
the text or was just us in the coastal community
like texts anyway, it's wave Wednesday. Actually we shouldn't call
it wave Wednesday, so I just said, we're not calling
it a wave, are we. Anyway, do come through if

(03:24):
you want to talk Kettil twelve o'clock, ten past eight,
if you've got something to say about that. Oh yeah,
the splash apocalypse, it could be on its way. I
don't think. Well, who knows. But anyway, if you want
to mention anything about that, if you are affected. But yes,
what are the ports are taking all ships out to sea?

(03:45):
Because in bluff Port's Southport they very much are doing that.
I don't know if you saw the end that notice
that was widely widely repeated, but that's what they are doing.
They are taking ships to sea on the back of this,
and maybe that's why Sea Scouts was canceled because the
staff had other stuff to do. Although the place where

(04:06):
they live is on the you know, it is on
the right on the ocean. So yes, we are talking
the tsunami tonight. It was on their Facebook page. Southport
pasted that. But do get in touch if you want
to talk. Eight hundred and eighty nine to nine to
de text. There's a lot of fuss sending all the
ships out to see, wouldn't it. But that's what they

(04:28):
are doing. I don't know if any of the other
harbors need to do that, because they're probably got a
different geology or a different a different topography, I guess
would be the right word. I'm just trying to read
that note there. I saw it before. Anyway, do get
in touch if you want to talk. Marcus till twelve.

Speaker 3 (04:47):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
Yes, as a precaution, vessels currently birthed at Southport are
heading to sea for the night and we'll return tomorrow
depending on how the situation develops. Surprising to see, isn't it.
Get it surprising to see, Peter, Marcus welcome.

Speaker 4 (05:04):
Yeah, Marcus, good, Peter, I got the warning.

Speaker 5 (05:09):
Yeah, and so yeah, and I'm on Spark so yeah,
all good.

Speaker 6 (05:15):
Death.

Speaker 5 (05:16):
I've got a mate on the Bearing Sea at the moment,
and he reported back then it was just a small
ripper across the ocean. Yeah, yeah, and yeah, he's he's
all good. But they were. He showed me the print
out from the captain from the the Winther report that

(05:38):
there was warnings and you know, no one on debt
at the time, and but be prepared to in case. Yeah,
So all interesting.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
He was on a vessel at sea, Is that right?

Speaker 5 (05:51):
Yeah, he spends he's American and he's spends his summer
fishing on the Bearing Sea. And he's not doing Alaskan
kim grab or anything. It's just fishing, fishing and commercial fishing.
So yeah, I need to seek me a message earlier today.
He goes, oh, now we have to condemn with tsunamis.

(06:13):
And and you know I reported back how I just
turned on the radio and he gave back to me
just before then. Everything sweet, and it was just like
a little ripple.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
Good until Peter thing. I imagine if you're it would
be much at all. It's when it hits land and
that it gets compressed that it accelerates. I would think
the deep so you get nothing at all. Really, I
wouldn't imagine that's why they're sending the ships to sea.
I suppose Greg. Good evening, Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 4 (06:39):
Oh, good evening, Marcus. How are you?

Speaker 7 (06:41):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (06:41):
Good Greg? Thank you for asking really good.

Speaker 4 (06:44):
Oh that's good. Hate So I heard you talking about
the armies. Hey, I was glad to get the warning,
but for some reason I got it three times.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
Wow, Well you must be somewhere really, vulnerable.

Speaker 4 (06:57):
Well, I was traveling axtly, so maybe that's did you.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
Come in and out of zones or something. We're getting
it three times.

Speaker 4 (07:04):
Well, I was visiting family in the White Hatter and
then I drove to Auckland, so maybe that's why. I
don't know what.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
Time was it? Four I got it at four twenty four.

Speaker 8 (07:17):
M Yeah, I got one about that time, and then
I got one like only about twenty minutes ago. Wow,
So I don't understand why. But anyway, one other thing
was I was talking to a family member about it
and they said, oh, well, I disconnected my warning And
I said, why would you do that? You want to
know if there's a tsunami coming and they said, oh nah,

(07:38):
I'll fear the earthquake. And I was like, but the
tsunami can travel hundreds of miles. You might not feel
the earthquake, so please don't decide.

Speaker 2 (07:46):
Oh wow, that's crazy that someone's disconnected.

Speaker 4 (07:51):
Well, apparently you can turn it off. I don't know
how to do it, but I would say don't do it.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
No, I never to, and that's the great risk. If
they use it to recklessly and things don't eventuate, people
will turn it off. But I mean, because we might
get a meteorite strike.

Speaker 4 (08:05):
They said, I don't the noise, and I said, I
beat your dog.

Speaker 2 (08:07):
And I'm like, yeah, well tell tell me tell that
to the hearspalion that died after the Boxing Day tsunami.
You know, don't like the noise? Gy what a luxury?

Speaker 4 (08:17):
That's exactly what I said. So yeah, So anyway, it
was good to get the warning.

Speaker 8 (08:22):
I love the warning, but I don't know if we're
going to get too much this far away, because right on.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
There and look, and I hope and I hope we
do get some here because otherwise people will think the
warnings are false alarms and they will switch off a.

Speaker 4 (08:39):
Well to their own perill because.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
Yes, it might not be you know, that's right.

Speaker 4 (08:45):
But the other thing too is if they didn't send
up the warning, then you'd have to complaining thing, you.

Speaker 9 (08:48):
Didn't warn us.

Speaker 2 (08:49):
Yeah, oh no, you need the warning and don't don't. Yeah,
you're going to affirm chat with that person.

Speaker 4 (08:56):
Yeah, and you know how you're talking about. They're not
a wave, You're right, They're like a surge in the open.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
That's a surge.

Speaker 4 (09:04):
I think what happens is when they get close to
the are the land they actually grow in hope they do?

Speaker 2 (09:10):
Two, Yes, they do. That's definitely what happens. Yes, yeah,
brilliant Greg. Thank you. By the way, I've just realized
Camp Chetka for those that don't know, Camp Chetka is
one of the territories on Risk. So that's why we
all know about that. We've seen it. We've had that card,

(09:32):
so you'll know that from that. I wondered, i've seen
it before. We play a bit of Risk, the world
most boring game. Oh wait at Teddy in nineteen nine
to text Jocelyn, it's Marcus. Good evening.

Speaker 10 (09:47):
Oh hi Marcus. I'm in Blenham and I'm just letting
you know that I'm with Spark and I got my
alert about Halpaus four coud five tonight.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
Okay, work out well, I Vanessas and again because she's
with Spark. Okay.

Speaker 10 (10:07):
Yeah, it might be just the area. It might have
been just where she was at the time, but honestly,
you couldn't miss it. You know, it was so clear because.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
Very gee, what's happened?

Speaker 11 (10:18):
Gee?

Speaker 2 (10:19):
When that comes out as a war? Was an alert?

Speaker 10 (10:21):
Well straight away thought, oh we even had any notification
and it was forgetting about the tsunami. You say, yeah,
but a friend of mine loves just up the road
from me, and she got her alert and she's once spark.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
Okay, that's good until justin Thank you seventeen past eight.
Good evening, Graham. This is Marcus Welcome.

Speaker 12 (10:47):
Yeah, Marcus H.

Speaker 13 (10:48):
Graham.

Speaker 12 (10:51):
I think the reason that you know what came to
Palinsa is all about was Russian shotdown in Indian seven
seven of passengers.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
Course, that's right, Russian territory, that's right. It was a
free famous incidentt wasn't it.

Speaker 12 (11:07):
Yeah, it sort of stuck in the mind. It was
not the horror of it being up there in the
bloody Russian jet comes along.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
And yeah, because I presume I presume a lot of
people don't live there.

Speaker 12 (11:24):
Well, it's pretty fair and isolated, I think, but the
Russians maintained pretty strong military basis there because it's one
of the few areas that they've got exstos to the
open seas.

Speaker 2 (11:37):
Yeah, and all were and all with a port. I
suppose what year was the cup Check plane crash?

Speaker 12 (11:44):
Oh, we're going to be fifteen years ago, maybe longer.

Speaker 14 (11:48):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
And it was a coren it was a krenial line,
wasn't it.

Speaker 12 (11:55):
I thought it was Indian? Okay, they're Indian.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
Okay, anyway, I consent to be correct. Yeah, no, I'll
get some information about that, but thank you, Graham. Steve Marcus,
WelCom Hi.

Speaker 5 (12:08):
I'm Stephen Braymouse. So you've got the got the alert
on the phone. Hey. One interesting thing is and people
can out there will correct me if I'm wrong, but
I think the English translation of tsunami is wave in
the harbor. Okay, yeah, which is quite cool.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
Yeah, well that's what it will be with some people.

Speaker 5 (12:28):
Isn't there.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
A harbor waves so meaning port, nami meaning wave. Yeah,
so that way we're a waveport.

Speaker 5 (12:37):
It's good but a real perceat question.

Speaker 2 (12:40):
But are any are there any ships leaving the Great
Gray Port for tonight?

Speaker 5 (12:46):
I haven't checked, haven't checked, but I'm sure that you know.
They are the professionals, so I'm sure they'll know what
they're doing.

Speaker 2 (12:54):
I'm waiting for Trump to speak Hill have some wise
ideas I mentioned anyway, get in touch, James Marcus welcome.

Speaker 5 (13:01):
How are we doing on Marcus?

Speaker 2 (13:04):
Very good, very good.

Speaker 5 (13:06):
I've got a fairy on the tsunami warning because I
just got my third one while driving home. Oh great,
So I live in Diamond Harbor. I got one this afternoon.
I took off to christ Used to play basketball. This evening,
I got one on my way to christ Church over
Die's Pass, and then just as I came back over

(13:28):
Dives Pass, now heating home, I just got another one.
As it's reconnected to a new cell tower. So I
reckon it sends them out from certain cell towers as
you come in and out of them. Just a theory.

Speaker 2 (13:40):
So you were saying as you're going into it, are
you saying it as you go into a tsunami pronier
it's giving you one.

Speaker 5 (13:46):
Yeah, I'm heading down into Littleton Harbor and there's no
reception on the other side of Dives Pass. As you
come over the peak, you pick up a new tower
and then beat it went again. So that's my fairy.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
I like it. Thanks. James Trump has spoken due to
a massive earth this is something on truth Social due
to a massive earthquake that the Pacific Ocean tsunami wanting
to affect those of in Hawaii. The tsunami watches an
effect for Alaska on the Pacific coast, Japan is also
on the way. Please visit tsunami dot govern those information
capital letters. Stay strong and stay safe. The leader steps

(14:22):
up some good evening. Marcus. We just said, Tim, Tim
tims it Tim, Tim, It's Mary Marcus item.

Speaker 15 (14:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (14:31):
Okay, So I got the alert at sixteen twelve this afternoon,
I will say driving I'm out in Spookie, so I'm
probably all right. But I'm just looking at the high
tide for tear on a part of tear on it
tomorrow at eleven fifty one, aren't that's Oh yeah, that

(14:57):
is Thursday eleven fifty one one point seven meters. So
you know, if the time he gets here for put
another foot on that, that's up to two meters. So
I mean, I guess it's a problem if it's that.
Now it might not be. I have no expertise in
this whatsoever. But for some reason my head maybe like

(15:21):
a foot of water coming hitting the Western States of America,
and yes, I put of water. You know, it's going
to mess around with estuaries and that type of thing.

Speaker 2 (15:37):
After the Port of Toron has sent their ships out
to sea.

Speaker 7 (15:40):
That I don't know because I'm down in to Pocky.

Speaker 2 (15:46):
Maybe something because because I mean if bluff is sending
their ships out, and Bluffers is a port that's you know,
as far away as Comchutka, as anywhere you could imagine,
but maybe the way it's designed it's particularly vulnerable to
tidle surges. I don't know if that's true that it
does face east the port mouth.

Speaker 7 (16:08):
Well you know, well, I mean that you know there's
a bit of the narrow entrance during the.

Speaker 2 (16:13):
Mountain, and yes there's something so.

Speaker 7 (16:18):
You know, I mean, well, know what is that nine
minutes to midday tomorrow and I've got to go up
there anyway tomorrow and do stuff, and I'll be around
about that time. So I shall observe and give your
bell tomorrow night and tell you what I saw if
it's anything.

Speaker 2 (16:37):
Okay, I appreciate that Tim please striking at midnight tonight.
But yeah, you're right, it is a narrow entrance. I
guess I don't want your ships being up against the port. Rosie, Marcus, welcome,
clear Marcus.

Speaker 16 (16:51):
Hi, Just don I'm your neighbor down the road and
the cackle, and I'm the spark ifing you know that
I didn't get the illerge eid, I like your wife
and oh.

Speaker 2 (16:59):
Is that right? M I wonder what happened.

Speaker 17 (17:06):
We haven't paid our bills.

Speaker 2 (17:08):
I'm just trying to want to shard to you even
turned something off on your phone here?

Speaker 17 (17:11):
You know, no, no, it definitely didn't get up.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
Okay, I appreciate that, Rosie, thank you. Wow. Okay, twenty
seven past eight. If anyone's got any more information getting
touched here till twelve oh eight hundred, I haven't even
thought about the text. Ev Oh goodness, I've neglected those
text text text what have we got? Marcus got most

(17:38):
of army warming four to fourteen North New Brighton, Christy.
It's ginny. They've warned all bodies to come into port
until given the all clear, which is the exact opposite
to bluff go figure, was it? The doctor surge and
cororian wenting to everyone. One's phone rang out with the alert.
I am with Spark. Eraplanes have been turned around heading
back to the West coast of America, as only the

(18:00):
airport has closed. I have two phones, one Spark, one
voted phone and one alert arrived at four to twelve.
At four thirteen was Spark. I jumped out of my
skin twice. Someone said, now, why are people sending me videos?

(18:25):
What use of videos for talkback host? People don't never
do that because curiousity get me to better. I feel
I've got to look at them. Oh, I don't want
to see United Nations videos. Have Some patients just received

(18:47):
the alert. Driver between rang euron would end. My husband
just got a loot bit my phone. Didn't we drive
in the same car, Marcus, it's where the Russians shut
down the Korean airline are Boeing seven for seven. Can't
remember the year? Cheers Paul. Someone says it to show
should be called wall of water Wednesday, not wave Wednesday.

(19:09):
Very good that you did better than chet gpt Marcus
of the sixties and nine point two quake off Alaska
generator tsunami suits that swamped house boats in New Zealand.
I got the alert. I live coastal got an alert
at the Brenduan's with two degrees. Well, Paul brow hell,

(19:31):
we call it big Wednesday, Greg and the three anyway
get in touch with our talking pretty much all about
the tsunami. A lot of people got the beat. Gosh,

(19:53):
someone said they saw the FBI director in Wellington today.
Was that on three news? Gotta be careful what people report.
I'll fact check that one. Marcus, I'm with one go
on a at six twenty two. My husband God is
a spark at four twelve. Glad it wasn't urgent, or
is it? He's probably one of the most interesting text

(20:19):
that'll take a while to one pick. Marcus. Not sure
if anyone else has this, but our alert came through
on the f POS machine at work. Was weird. Wow,
why would it come on an f POS machine. By
the way, there's footage on CNN of the tsunamis in
Hawaii and that's that. But do come through if you

(20:46):
want to talk about this, anything tsunami related, Marcus. It's
only a tsunami advisory, not a tsunami warning. There is
a big difference. Tell us what their difference is. Also,
the US Navy contariships and Hawaii have been tied up,
not taken out to see, and they're getting waves. We
won't be seems maybe we are overreacting, Marcus. The lawn

(21:12):
bowls will be on sky again late Sunday afternoon. You's
in women's fours. Thank you for that. Anything tsunami related
that you want to talk about or alert alert related
It's a good thing we had that test those two
months ago, wasn't It got the whole system match fit.

(21:32):
And it strikes me as a great relief. There's been
such a great quake means to pressureus off on the
Pacific plate, doesn't it It's going to ping at the
other end. That's always the threat goes one end, it's
got to go the other side to balance. I don't
know if that's the case. Tsunami breaking news. It happens

(21:54):
all across the breaking news tonight. Yeah, but I wouldn't
call it a tsunami waved, call it a surge. That's
my public service announcement for today. Yeah, eight hundred and
eighty nine text. The first waves are hitting Hawaii. They

(22:17):
say some will go to California. But any information what
I'll give you what that is. I wonder how much
different it would have been the Boxing Day tsunami if
they had alerts like we've got now. Probably not that
much different because it was so very sudden. Anyway, do

(22:42):
get in touch on a talk on it tonight and
enduring the discussion so far. HITDLE twelve your dB, Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 5 (22:52):
Good eving dB. I've just I've been plussing what it
looks like between kim Chucks and New Zealand. It's a
straight poke from that peninsula wand except for Nawa to
Arcapellago and New Caledonia's in the way, so Bluff gets

(23:17):
almost a clean shot excel for the fact that has
to go around Trothough peninsula. Yeah, but the water in
Bluff sohol So any sort of conserverations could cause a

(23:38):
bit of havoc in Bluff. For the place I'm looking
at that could really be unhappy, the Thames Estuary. Sure, Thames,
it's broad at the top now at the bottom, and
it's a straight line between that and where it came from.

Speaker 2 (24:00):
Yeah, okay, although there aren't There aren't ships on there though,
are there that?

Speaker 18 (24:06):
That's true?

Speaker 5 (24:06):
But Auckland could could see some surges. But in the
in the the uh Japanese quake, the way of Islands
had some quite interesting water perserbations.

Speaker 2 (24:20):
At what sort of scale?

Speaker 6 (24:23):
Uh, I'm just.

Speaker 5 (24:27):
Trying to visualize what it looked like on the video.
Lots of water movement but no water height yep. Okay,
So it's probably not a bad move for the Bluff
people to move large ships they don't like surges at

(24:48):
the wharf, you know, you start stepping wing lines. It
gets tricky very quickly. Yes, And as I said, yeah,
I'm for a direct Pope. I don't like the look
of the Thames Estuary and I don't and the bike
of Bay of Prenty could potentially see some water movement,

(25:16):
but it won't be away. It'll be all of a sudden,
the water moves left six feet all of a sudden,
the water then moves six feet the other way. And
that's when when you're tied to a marina, that's a
lot of movement.

Speaker 2 (25:32):
Sort of force to arn mooring ropes and wolves and
things to us that.

Speaker 5 (25:38):
So that's that's just my input. But between us, like
I said, and the tsunami is New Caledonia Thanatu and Naaru.
And I'd like to hear somebody from Naaru tell me
what it looks like because they're a road lying island
with no protection.

Speaker 2 (26:00):
Yes, no one's talked about the Pacific yet, but some
of those places are extremely low lying, aren't they.

Speaker 5 (26:06):
Absolutely, And just in the triangle that I drew, you
know in my world map, Maru's right in the middle
of it.

Speaker 2 (26:20):
What's another what's the other Pacific on that's really low
that they're always worrying about. To val too, Valu was
it is that the one that seems to be incredibly
vulnerable to.

Speaker 5 (26:34):
And when you were only three feet above men high water,
if you add one foot, that's important to get the alert. Yes,
I did. I was actually ringing somebody else about it
at the time. Once my phone took sent it on me.

Speaker 2 (27:01):
So it did. It did. Talk when you're actually on
the phone, even you're on a time, you're on a
phat are you're dialing?

Speaker 15 (27:13):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (27:13):
And also my phone went crazy? Anyone, what is what's
what's wrong with you? And then of course I was
expecting one. I think, well, when I will put it
this way. When it arrived, I wasn't surprised.

Speaker 2 (27:26):
Okay, good to hear from your dB.

Speaker 5 (27:28):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (27:29):
Twenty two away from nine. My name is Marcus. Welcome,
ned's be hearing from you. I see by that today,
confession till tell you one of those. I don't even
know if I can tell you that actually Alpine Fault
goes every three of the year, is one of the
most regular places in the world. The last quake seventeen
seventeen a d Marcus, it's weird. Three months ago, I

(27:50):
told my wife in July, there's going to be a
tsunami in Japan. Well it wasn't was it was in
contructor Marcus, I hope to do it. An awkward turned
to salami. So now Amy sarrens On and christ Church
is available if needed. When they were supposed to go

(28:11):
for his test earlier in the year, the person was
distracted by a car crash outside their house, so they
were turned off. Also weren't turned on. No text here
alert here in christ Church with spark. Marcus was a
New World Remo winner when tsunami warning came through along
with everyone else's hilarious. You couldn't miss it. Anne, here's

(28:34):
a question. How much bigger is an eight point eight
than a seven point eight? Lit'll get you going, Paul Marcus, Welcome.

Speaker 15 (28:43):
Marcus.

Speaker 5 (28:44):
How are you good? Paul?

Speaker 15 (28:46):
All right? So I'm actually in Nahru, I live here.
I'm originally from christ Oh good, but I was. I
listened to news talk all through the all through the day,
so I just packed up your comments that you said.
No the previous caller mentioned about Nahu. We actually have
a good tsunami plan. And we have a higher ground

(29:11):
area that all of us ninety percent of the population
live on the coast, but we have a very easy
access at a number of points up to a higher ground,
which is probably forty five meters going higher above sea level.
So we don't really have a problem. And what they

(29:35):
have alerted that we could expect to point three to
a one meter surge.

Speaker 2 (29:42):
Okay, well, so people won't need to go to high
people won't need to go to a higher ground.

Speaker 15 (29:47):
No, and we haven't had a tsunami alert sent around
the island via either the radio station or the TV
or our phone network can send out a blast right
throughout the island. The countries that are closer as the

(30:11):
island of which is very low lying, it's slightly southeast
of us and stretches right across and that is that
is a very very low lying and Tavalu, which is

(30:31):
slightly further south. They literally even at a king king tide,
can have water right across. And then you've got slightly
north of us, which is closer to where the earthquake occurred.
You've got the Marshall Islands and which is Bikini and
Eby and Maduro. They are very low lying. They don't

(30:56):
have any of the elevation that we have. So there
are some vulnerable spots, but there's no wreckord mission that
it's really going to be anything. Probably more than a meter,
maybe one point two is what has come across from
I think is a geological survey. Is that what they

(31:19):
They send out some stuff, don't they?

Speaker 5 (31:21):
Yeah, yeah, the caller.

Speaker 2 (31:24):
All of you retired there.

Speaker 15 (31:29):
Just because I'm an island doesn't mean I'm retired. I
want to construction. Understandaband here for twenty five years. I
love the place. I've got a ruined family, the whole thing.
I'm part of their furniture. It's wonderful. It's a wonderful spot.

Speaker 2 (31:42):
You know, you're not advised. You're not the advice that's
told them all together. They're going big on crypto, aren't they.
That's what we see in the paper.

Speaker 15 (31:49):
Oh be quietly quiet, ten things. I could talk to you,
but we better might have the studio ten thousand people. No,
it's a bit more than that. It's probably closer to
thirteen thirteen and a half an hour of locals here
with quite a good population growth.

Speaker 2 (32:10):
I can't imagine what it's like. Is it pretty.

Speaker 15 (32:16):
No, not really, but you know it's scott its beauty.
My wife and I walk on the beach every single day,
about one hundred and fifty yards away. We walked straight
down to the beach. I should send you some photos
of the sun of the sunset so I see it
will blow you out.

Speaker 2 (32:30):
It's food pricey because it's all important.

Speaker 15 (32:33):
Yeah, it is quite pricey. Yes, your food is quite extinctive,
chipping and all the rest. But it's a no. It's
an easy place to live. There are very welcoming, very
genuine people.

Speaker 5 (32:50):
Yeah they are.

Speaker 15 (32:51):
Yeah, I'm very very safe.

Speaker 2 (32:53):
Would the people will the people been in their ruins,
the indigenous people that would they still be in the majority?

Speaker 5 (33:01):
Oh yes you're que fa okay.

Speaker 15 (33:04):
Yeah, we had quite a few Fijis. We have a
number of Gilbertys who are from Cirebas to Valu and
work here. We have quite a vibrant Chinese population run
a lot of the small small stores, and then we
have quite a few expat Australians New Zealanders. We've got

(33:25):
Downer and Becker up here on a couple of infrastructure projects. Yes,
I work quite closely with m Fat New Zealand. They're
engaged with us. I'm on the Chamber of Commerce, so
I have close relationship there. No, it's a it's a
great spot. Yeah yeah, I mean it's not.

Speaker 2 (33:45):
There no tourism or very little tourism.

Speaker 15 (33:49):
Well, very little. We're trying to actually grow it. We're
trying to develop, but there's some unique things that could develop.
It's quite popular with the bucket listers. We want to
quit particular. They have been to all of that, and
so we actually mark the country to that range of
to that range people and they come in, they're interested,
they want to find out a few unique things about it.

(34:13):
You know, it's safe, they can enjoy the place, and
they go away chuckled that they've been to country one
hundred and ninety eight or so forth. You know, anybody
goes through brilliant.

Speaker 2 (34:24):
Look, I've loved talking to you, Paul. You stay in touch.
Thank you so much. I've got to run, but lovely
to talk twelve to nine. Pretty amazing. How good Paul's
phone line was from Nauru. We've got people that call
just from next door that aren't as good as that.
That's unbelievable. Anyway, get in touch, Ben Marcus, welcome, Yeah.

Speaker 14 (34:40):
You get them. So understand, there's a metal New Zealand
and any low lying areas that could be impacted by
a tsunami is you know, set by the Civil Defense
in any cell tells within those zones if there's an
alert or whatever ping people's cell phones. If your cell

(35:03):
phone connects to one of those towers at the time,
you will get the alert. But if your phone's not
connected to one of those toils at the time, you
won't get the alert.

Speaker 2 (35:14):
Okay, seems like it seems like just it seems like
just when everyone got the alert though, doesn't it.

Speaker 14 (35:20):
Yeah, Well, well I did. I did, but my wife didn't.
And she, you know, we got the same phones on
the same plan and she didn't get it. But we're
not in the we don't live in a low lying area.
But I was at work at the time and I
was by the coast, So yeah, I got it. I
asked my work colleague and he goes, yeah, my wife

(35:42):
works for Newell or someone, and yeah, and that's how
the system works.

Speaker 2 (35:47):
Nice hear from your Ben. Thanks so much, by the way,
this is interesting a text. This is amazing. Marcus was
on a flight Wellington to Walkland. Was embarrassing for those
who had left their phones on grant. So the alert
must have gone off of those phones on the plane. Oh,
that would be mortifying. Janet's Marcus. Good evening.

Speaker 19 (36:09):
Oh I'm Marcus. I've been driven mad this evening. My
alarm has been going off every two minutes and I'm
at Castle Cliff, so I don't know what's going wrong
down there, wherever it's coming from. So that's one thing.
I had to put the phone and the teacadya.

Speaker 2 (36:31):
Did she put it? Put in the freezer?

Speaker 3 (36:35):
Really?

Speaker 2 (36:36):
I put the free on. I might wreack the phone,
certainly do that? Is it the tsunami alert that's going
every two minutes?

Speaker 19 (36:44):
Yeah, it's booming out. Of course I can't read the
words are too little. Even with my magnifying glass, couldn't
even read it. So it's in a major panic. What
is this grape?

Speaker 5 (36:58):
Big?

Speaker 2 (36:59):
How do you find how did you find it out?

Speaker 19 (37:02):
In the end, I rang the daisy taxi. Oh yeah him,
have you been ketting?

Speaker 17 (37:08):
And he told me what it was all about.

Speaker 19 (37:12):
Yeah, he's great, very reliable.

Speaker 20 (37:16):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (37:17):
Does it stop going off yet?

Speaker 21 (37:18):
No, it'll go off again, probably that.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
I'm looking forward to.

Speaker 22 (37:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (37:24):
The other thing, yes, No.

Speaker 19 (37:29):
That earthquake in Russia was eighteen kilometers deep, and so
not only the biggest earthquake, but it's probably the deepest,
and it's affecting the whole Pacific. What do you call it,
plateau plate?

Speaker 2 (37:48):
I think you call it Pacific plate, Pacific plate.

Speaker 19 (37:51):
Yes, yes, But in New Zealand, I've been saying this
probably for one hundred years. New Zealand will never get
tsunami because where we have a dip all around.

Speaker 2 (38:06):
Key, we dip the Great Key, we dip.

Speaker 19 (38:08):
Yeah, and it's going to be flat for a sooner.
I need to be able to come in, So please
everybody just relax. I'm worried about the boats out in
the sea. They're going to go up into the sky
a bit higher and come flopping back down again. Jenn

(38:30):
will be a bit frightening, Jens.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
What what is? What's going to be frightening? I was
I was doing other stuff. Yes, someone said, your phone,
your phone on and off.

Speaker 19 (38:42):
I've been doing that every two minutes.

Speaker 2 (38:44):
But what have a phone if you can't see? Why
don't you have a landline?

Speaker 19 (38:51):
Oh don't get me started on the phone company. I
was blocked by a slingshot and so I couldn't.

Speaker 17 (39:00):
Couldn't.

Speaker 2 (39:03):
It's another the cross as we be. Yeah, well I know, yeah, get.

Speaker 19 (39:09):
Some pigeons chiens might be better.

Speaker 2 (39:13):
It hasn't talk to you, Jane, has it? I can't
hear it.

Speaker 19 (39:16):
Well, it'll be coming, you can be sure of it.
And I'm not taking it to the bedroom with me.

Speaker 2 (39:22):
Because you don't put in the freezer.

Speaker 7 (39:26):
Yep.

Speaker 19 (39:27):
My other phone went off and I didn't do anything.
So I think switching the alarm off is what triggers it.
Redo it, redo it, redo it. So we're not going
to get a tsunami here in Castle Clith. And that's
so I've been swearing quite badly.

Speaker 2 (39:52):
Creating's welcome here'll twelve. We are talking about the tsunami,
the alerts, anything related to that. That's of interest to
me too. It's a kind of a strong quake, of course,
how strong was a point was it? How strong was it?
Damn quake? Eight point eight? It's ten times stronger than
a seven point eight, longer with a big or something.

(40:12):
So it's a massive one, one of the seventh or
eighth biggest. I think it's the seventh biggest this century,
and before the century they didn't record them. I don't
think so, if you want to talk about that. Also
in Hawaii, the tsunami warning has been downgraded to an advisory,
so it looks like it probably. Yeah, there's five foot surges,
but it's not as big as it could have been.

(40:32):
But it's all new science. You gotta be careful about that.
But there's one point nine million evacuated Japan as waves
are hitting near Tokyo. But it's interesting. I was very
surprised that there was a reaction down here with the
alert and ships going out to seeing things like that.

(40:54):
I think some people who didn't get the alert, they
should go to the emergency settings. Got a notification, Scroll
to emergency alerts, check that it is on. I think
it'd be daft to turn it off. That's advice that
to my opinion. I just landed and using it. From Australia.
A text to SiZ was hilarious to see that people
who didn't have their phones in flight mode frankly try

(41:15):
and silence their phone alerts going off. As we got
close to landing and we've got reception again. The alerts
must have come on mid flight, but our phone didn't
pick it up again until we've got reception either a
shooting star of meteor or just meetea or just spotted
over the sky at night, sky and Gisbon the tailors
lit up the sky. I would send you a picture

(41:38):
if I had a camera on my phone. But it's
an old school Nockia. It's probably older than some of
your listeners. Then again, probably not get in touch Marx
till twelve. If you want to talk just about the
alert and about the surge. And if you're a mariner,

(42:05):
if you've gone down to chicken ship, your vessel, your boat,
be in touch about that.

Speaker 11 (42:17):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (42:18):
Getting a lot of texts about Naru from people that
have lived there. We lived there and it's pretty bare
and no crops or palm trees. No sports are played
in Naru is terrible. I do get touched. If you

(42:40):
want to talk, my name is Marcus. Welcome. We are
talking about the Sun Army and the alert and anything
related to that. I wouldn't turn off your settings. By
the way, no one seems to be too consider about
the Russians. But I don't know if many of them
have died. Have they in Comchuka haven't heard anything of it.
I don't even know if many people live there. It
is on the risk board though, that's where you might
remember it. And from the Korean plane crash, sorry, the

(43:05):
Korean plane shooting down of I don't I can't even
remember what their beef was. Did they did they mistake
it for something else? There'll be an air crash investigates

(43:27):
a lot of people turning forty six on board. The
Soviets admitted shooting it down, claiming it wasn't on anmasi
int spy mission. So yes, be some behind the scenes
dealing with that one. Nineteen eighty three. It was forty

(43:48):
one years ago, shot down after navigation error by the pilot.
So the pilots must have gone into Russian airspace, sorry,
Soviet airspace? Of course it was USS, are they? And
how much bigger was Russia? Was Soviet Union? Russia? Was
it twice as big? Now it wouldn't be that big,

(44:08):
but certainly was big population wise? They might be two Felix, Marcus, welcome,
you're there. Felix, got years on It's Marcus welcome.

Speaker 4 (44:25):
Oh hey, Marcus, how are you?

Speaker 16 (44:26):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (44:27):
Good yourself? How's going all good?

Speaker 23 (44:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (44:29):
Pretty good.

Speaker 12 (44:30):
I'm just pist off about the alert.

Speaker 9 (44:31):
You know why.

Speaker 5 (44:34):
They've just been keep.

Speaker 22 (44:35):
Flooding my phot.

Speaker 2 (44:38):
You mean you've had probably three in your life.

Speaker 24 (44:41):
I mean I've had like tens though, really like one
hundred in the hours.

Speaker 2 (44:48):
Are you getting it all the time as well?

Speaker 4 (44:50):
Yes, the same as that lady that you get to
put the phone.

Speaker 25 (44:53):
In the freedom?

Speaker 2 (44:54):
So how many? So is it just coming through every minute?

Speaker 24 (44:57):
Literally like every two minutes that just comes in?

Speaker 6 (45:03):
What?

Speaker 2 (45:03):
What phone have you got?

Speaker 24 (45:05):
I've got a iPhone.

Speaker 2 (45:07):
I can't work out why that would be happening neither.

Speaker 4 (45:10):
I've turned off the alerts because I was listening and
you told me about that. I turned them often back on,
restarted my phone and everything. It's still happening.

Speaker 2 (45:21):
Because it's weird if it's a bag, if it would
just be going to your phone and Jen's phone, and
I'm wondering why it would be doing that.

Speaker 4 (45:28):
Not sure.

Speaker 2 (45:31):
Who would you call? We've called talkback, who else would know?
Do you think.

Speaker 5 (45:38):
It sounds like that's probably?

Speaker 23 (45:40):
Huh?

Speaker 2 (45:41):
It does sound like there's a bug in the system, though,
doesn't it?

Speaker 6 (45:44):
Yeah?

Speaker 22 (45:45):
I think so.

Speaker 2 (45:45):
Did you do any did you push any funny buttons
when the alert was coming through?

Speaker 24 (45:50):
No, I just read it and then stopped beeping, and
I was like, oh, that's the end of that, and
then it's just.

Speaker 4 (45:56):
Flooding my phone.

Speaker 2 (45:58):
Okay, we'll see if we can find out anyone else
for let's keep listening. Thank you. Thirteen past nine, someone
says there's a glitch in the matrix. Someone's wondering if
they're sending ships out to see because they could wreck
the wolves when they're hit by the waves. I don't

(46:20):
know what. I don't know quite what. It seems like.
It seems like an overreaction to me. But to get
if there's something different you want to mention tonight, to
feel free to come through anything but pies. I think
we led the discussion on pies, although that one with
a pot top did look good, didn't when you saw
the pictures. Not long to the Rugby Women's World Cup

(46:45):
England twenty second of August, just three weeks to that.
This day in nineteen seventy nine was the day Carlus
Days was introduced. Now for a younger audience who wants
to explain Carlos Days. There was an oil shock because

(47:10):
of a war the Gulf, because of the sewers crisis,
is that right? And it was affecting our balance of payments. Yeah,
the nineteen seventy nine oil crisis because there was a

(47:33):
drop in oil production because of the Iranian Revolution and
then the Iran Iraq Wall War, and it wasn't good.
There was a recession nationwide or around the world, and
we decided to start rationing petrol and to do that
we had Carlos Days. I'll tell you more, Whisley, it's Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 26 (47:59):
Hi Marcus, how are you good?

Speaker 5 (48:00):
Thank you.

Speaker 26 (48:02):
I've just received the alert that Silver Defense just issued
their last bulletins for the night. All precautions that have
already been taken should remain in place, and so that
includes staying away from the shores and out of boat
and out of marinas. So anyone that has missed all

(48:22):
the news alert don't expect to receive any more Civil
Defense bulletins unless things change, Okay. So yeah, basically we're
on our own overnight until first light tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (48:41):
Where did you receive that?

Speaker 3 (48:42):
That is it?

Speaker 2 (48:43):
Because you're in community. That's not an alarm one though.

Speaker 11 (48:47):
Is it?

Speaker 26 (48:49):
That's just come off stuff stuff dot cot and said.

Speaker 2 (48:52):
Okay, I appreciate that. Okay, okay, thanks wiz he I'll
keep it updated. I think it's gonna be on Tim
Beaverridge's show. He's on from midnight. Not much you can
see at night, though, was there either with surges. We've
got our homestay student from Japan. He was free concerned.

(49:12):
Then he stopped watching trained videos and started watching tsunami videos.
But I told him I think he's from Kumagaya, and
I said that that's farign Land. I think in a
Japan they've got a heightened awareness of natural disasters. I
think even got something on his cell phone. He got
an alert, but she young to have a cell phone. Debbie,

(49:36):
it's Marcus.

Speaker 11 (49:36):
Hello.

Speaker 17 (49:41):
I remember MACLo stays, I was going to high school.
Second we chose Wens. Carla stays.

Speaker 6 (49:51):
I don't know why it was.

Speaker 2 (49:52):
I think I think most people chose Wednesday. I think
it was the most popular day.

Speaker 17 (49:57):
Yeah, and I remember, you know, we had to buy
to school and whatever. Yes, they hear ad dition one.

Speaker 2 (50:08):
Oh really what color?

Speaker 6 (50:10):
Yellow?

Speaker 2 (50:12):
Yellow? Did you say?

Speaker 17 (50:13):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (50:16):
Okay? Yellow? Really?

Speaker 11 (50:18):
Yeah?

Speaker 17 (50:20):
It was pretty cool color. So you know, I remember
those days very clearly.

Speaker 21 (50:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (50:29):
How long do you think it lasted?

Speaker 26 (50:32):
Oh?

Speaker 17 (50:32):
Mate, I can't remember that part. Yeah, I can't remember. Sorry,
m hmm.

Speaker 2 (50:39):
I've got no idea. I can't see. I can't see
on the app, I can't see on the article article.
How long on our Thursday was the most popular day?

Speaker 3 (50:47):
Oh?

Speaker 16 (50:47):
Was it?

Speaker 17 (50:48):
Okay? Yeah, I remember those?

Speaker 15 (50:51):
What year was it?

Speaker 2 (50:55):
What's that?

Speaker 17 (50:57):
What year was it?

Speaker 2 (51:00):
It's hard to tell. I think it was nineteen eighty okay,
July July nineteen seventy nine to May nineteen eighty, So
it went for ten months, went for long than I thought,
for a.

Speaker 17 (51:11):
Long time, long time.

Speaker 2 (51:13):
Yeah, Thursday was the most common DeBie. A lot of
people had exemptions. I tho you'd buy those at the pub?
Is it does sound wiki? A black market for exemption
stickers and limitations of them quickly developed, weakening the effectiveness

(51:37):
of the scheme. Also a distinct problem in equality, households
that could afford to run two cars chose simply different
days for the two and continue to drive on all
seven is above five to tendency of the population bound

(51:57):
by the rules drove regularly on their carless days. Apparently
it was like drink driving in those days. If you
get away with it, you did. There was no stigma attached.
The first person prosecuted under the scheme was Gordon Marx
of christ Church, who forgot that at three forty five

(52:21):
in the morning after a post party nap in his car.
His Carlos Dage sat at two am. At his trial,
the judge understood Mark's error, but he was still find
fifty dollars round than for maximum fine to show the
legislation had teeth. What a legend? Anyone know him? Gordon
Marx sounds like a spin off feature there in the

(52:44):
raiting of they interview him. Mind you, it's some number
of years ago, now, isn't it fifty five years ago?
Have I got the air right? Hang on, don't talk No,
forty five years ago. It was nineteen eighty, not nineteen
seventy one. If he's still around, legend ooh tsunamis that's

(53:15):
what we're on about tonight. If you want to talk
about that, that would be good. Oh eight hundred eighty
ten eighty. There is a shortage of matcha tea. I
don't really know what matchat is, by the way, if
someone wants to explain that to me, and I'm happy
not knowing. By the way, the woman that invented will

(53:38):
popularize the hula hoop has died. She's a good age,
she's one hundred and three or something. It came from Australia.
I never knew the hula hoop came from Australia. Yeah,
wooden hoops was an Australian thing. She talked to the
United States. Never realized that of interest to me. One

(54:07):
hundred and one she was when she died. There'd be
a joke. There's something about the woman that the woman
and the woman invented the hurder hoop died at a
funeral in Sertlight. I don't know what it is, Bob.
This is Marcus welcome.

Speaker 27 (54:20):
Yeah, those Carlo Staves Marcus. Years ago, we used to
have when we registered our car, we used to have
a square sticket which is stuck to the window, not
like they got today. When when the Carlo Staves come along,
my dad used ton't standard ten men, Dad, and you
if you were a Tuesday or whether you might have
a green sticker. If you were a Spriner, you might
have a yellow stickt and you had to stick that
to the window next door to your registration, so they

(54:42):
would have stuck out. They would have found out if
your driving on the day you weren supposed to be.

Speaker 2 (54:46):
Yeah, oh yeah, but if you got drunk and fell
asleep in your car and then just took off at
two in the morning, i'man fair cop to you.

Speaker 27 (54:53):
And the other one was I didn't get an alert.
Maybe I haven't got my phone set up from him.
But they sent my daughter an alarm and she lives
in party too. Well, if they're going to be planning
play tour, yeah, for anyone else, that's you didn't need
an alarm.

Speaker 2 (55:09):
That's a big tsunami getting in part here tour, that's
a big story.

Speaker 27 (55:13):
That's ridiculous. That's ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (55:16):
Tell me what gave everyone a chance to call their relatives?
They didn't the oh you know, you got a conversation started?
He did you get that alert?

Speaker 15 (55:22):
Now?

Speaker 2 (55:22):
But how things going anyway?

Speaker 27 (55:24):
The other day you said about the alarms. They seem
to set them off whenever they feel like it, like
the weather ones for the wall of rain and it
never happened, And they seem to be sending out an
alarm every jolly five minutes.

Speaker 2 (55:35):
Yeah, but people are going to get alarm empathy, aren't
they alarmathy? They're going to get sick.

Speaker 27 (55:39):
Amount not not not with Marcus lash talking about Yeah, okay,
fair enough, you're you're alarmed in my alarm system.

Speaker 2 (55:47):
That's the way it should be too. I think you
would be set up right though. But worried about you
in the tsunami though, because you're coastal these days?

Speaker 11 (55:55):
Are you?

Speaker 27 (55:56):
When I worked in when I worked up on the
Hawk's Bay up and Hawks Bay Protein, we're right next
door of that man that was the Japanese one, and
they they that just about down the whole factory. The
other boys went down to the pub, which won't much better.
Because I thought that we're going to get washed away.
I just carried on working in the factory. Guarantee the
swell wouldn't be big enough to the soul on your foot.

(56:17):
So I think people panic quite a lot.

Speaker 2 (56:20):
And I reckon, go to the Pub's not a bad strategy.
You normally get pretty good You normally get pretty good
advice at the pub. There's never a shortage of people.
There's never a shortage of people telling the advisors.

Speaker 27 (56:30):
They're at the pub and they said, I want it
should be get a big one, and you're in the factory.
I said, I'm worried about.

Speaker 2 (56:35):
That one that happened good on you, Bob Priva. Marcus welcome.

Speaker 28 (56:40):
Yeah, good evening Marcus. I'm the New Zealand contact for
Fully Young International who are making the match a tea
in Japan. Oh, I'm in regular contact with Raymond Young,
the CEO of Fully Young International, because he is looking
at Gisbon to be a grower of the fire plants

(57:01):
to extract the necessary stephead of the lead. And yeah,
it's certainly got great potential. You know, a lot of
Asian medicine is based on plant extracts and there's no
reason why New Zealand can't be a part of the
action as well. You know, papaia is a tropical fruit.

(57:25):
You can grow it for the fruit itself. But Raymond
has a special variety of the papaya which is very
heavy leaf production, and he has got it on shops
and did big department stores in Japan and looking at

(57:46):
Malaysia as well. And there's great potential for job creation
here in Gisbon. If Raymond decides to grow large hectares
of papaya, well this does.

Speaker 2 (57:59):
It grow in Gibbon.

Speaker 28 (58:02):
Oh yeah, no problem mate. Yeah, look I've got I've
got seven bunches of bananas backyard, mate, they're all about
about twelve to fifteen cage yr. Fruit will come off
them and no sweat, no the frost.

Speaker 14 (58:14):
They just just.

Speaker 28 (58:16):
You know, snubbing their nose at the frost.

Speaker 2 (58:20):
Delicious fruit.

Speaker 23 (58:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 28 (58:23):
Now the papaya has several qualities. First of all dangy fever,
which is now becoming more common in sami and pig.
There's also diabetes as not as we're not talking about
cures here, we're talking about treatment of these illnesses. And
also they're now found with trials that it improves markedly

(58:48):
the digestive systems of older people. I could believe that
our trials going on in my Lasia at the moment too. Yeah, yeah, I.

Speaker 2 (58:55):
Could believe that, Trevor. I've got to run got headlines.
But thanks so much for that call, Brian. Good evening
has gone good, Brian World, good yourself.

Speaker 29 (59:05):
You're not too just the warrants and Red Joe's. I
really want to own tonight.

Speaker 2 (59:10):
You're good, thank you.

Speaker 6 (59:13):
Yeah, I mean, what's the point?

Speaker 2 (59:17):
Probably so the cars? Probably so the cars are safe
on the road, is that right?

Speaker 6 (59:21):
Well you'd think so.

Speaker 29 (59:23):
But in America, as long as you've got indicators, break lights.

Speaker 6 (59:26):
And headlights where you go.

Speaker 2 (59:28):
Really, do they have warrants?

Speaker 6 (59:30):
No, just registration?

Speaker 29 (59:33):
You surete look it up?

Speaker 17 (59:36):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (59:37):
Whoall?

Speaker 6 (59:38):
Yep and uh and they seem to be going, you know.

Speaker 29 (59:42):
And it would help the poor out, wouldn't it. Yeah,
And it'll get the country moving and then just remove
the speed bumps and cones and away.

Speaker 2 (59:51):
Does Australia have warrants and fitnesses either?

Speaker 6 (59:54):
Well, I don't know about Australia, but America is a
lot bigger and it's a better test case, isn't it. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (59:59):
No, I think Australia too doesn't have them.

Speaker 28 (01:00:02):
Really.

Speaker 2 (01:00:03):
Well, yeah, that's new for me, do you it's all
it's all new for me.

Speaker 16 (01:00:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:00:09):
So New Zealand's just it's a bit a bit out
of control.

Speaker 2 (01:00:17):
I've never thought of that with America. I suppose you know,
when your car's gonna.

Speaker 6 (01:00:26):
Well, I mean it used to be six months.

Speaker 30 (01:00:29):
You've got your.

Speaker 7 (01:00:31):
Yep.

Speaker 6 (01:00:32):
I mean, what's changed? Nothing changed.

Speaker 3 (01:00:36):
Our car?

Speaker 2 (01:00:37):
Cars probably got better.

Speaker 6 (01:00:39):
Well, cars have got better, yeah that well that's true.
But then they reduced the speed limits, so they got safer,
and yet we reduce the speed limits.

Speaker 29 (01:00:49):
So I mean that's another topic.

Speaker 2 (01:00:50):
I guess that it's a pretty boring one. But a
lot of people still die on the road about four
hundred a year, right, Is that acceptable? Yeah, that is acceptable.

Speaker 5 (01:01:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:01:01):
Well, at the end of the day, people are going
to do what they're going to do.

Speaker 29 (01:01:06):
I mean, how many people in New Zealand run around
about warrants anyway. So all you're doing is tenalizing the
people that are responsible and the people that aren't responsible.
They're going to do what they want to do anyway,
aren't they.

Speaker 2 (01:01:18):
You should go for public office.

Speaker 6 (01:01:21):
Well I've got an office.

Speaker 2 (01:01:22):
Yeah, but you should be. I mean you've got a
gift of explaining stuff.

Speaker 6 (01:01:28):
Well, thank you, I'll take that as a compliment.

Speaker 11 (01:01:30):
It is, it is.

Speaker 2 (01:01:31):
I had no idea about the US and warrants. I've
never already thought about them.

Speaker 6 (01:01:35):
Yeah, it's a bit of a thing. And I'll tell
you what today.

Speaker 2 (01:01:40):
I got turned down on a warrant because we speed
tie wasn't anchored securely enough.

Speaker 29 (01:01:45):
Oh it's got out of control. But like so many
things in this country, I think that's why people are leaving.

Speaker 2 (01:01:53):
Do you want to say PC gone mad?

Speaker 6 (01:01:55):
Well I would say that, but you know, yeah, I
think everyone knows it. Yeah, I've got a good example.
I've got a good example.

Speaker 2 (01:02:06):
Can let me drop.

Speaker 29 (01:02:07):
It's a bit off topic, but I was flying my
drone today over this ocean and the police turned up,
seized the drone and said, well, it's in restricted airspace.

Speaker 5 (01:02:19):
I said, what what's the airspace?

Speaker 29 (01:02:21):
Well, it's just restricted and I said, well, I'm over
fifteen k's away from an airport and it's not over
dock Land, it's not over New ones Land. It's just
it's just over the ocean.

Speaker 2 (01:02:34):
Who called the heat, Well.

Speaker 29 (01:02:37):
I wish I knew. But in the same token I
wish I didn't.

Speaker 2 (01:02:41):
They Yeah, what are are you in?

Speaker 28 (01:02:45):
I was in Newlands.

Speaker 2 (01:02:48):
And I'll tell you what's in Wellington?

Speaker 9 (01:02:50):
Is it?

Speaker 5 (01:02:51):
It is?

Speaker 6 (01:02:52):
And I've looked it up since and there's just about
nowhere in New Zealand you can fly your drone.

Speaker 2 (01:02:57):
Did you say the cops haven't got some moodors to
solve but you hope so? Did you not have it?
Did you not have a smart line for them?

Speaker 5 (01:03:05):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (01:03:05):
Well know you want to try and be as diplomatic
as possible.

Speaker 2 (01:03:10):
You didn't say that you've been diplomatic. You were saying
things that are like why what Yeah, sound that you're
quite back chetty.

Speaker 6 (01:03:16):
No, No, well I wasn't.

Speaker 29 (01:03:18):
But I was just trying to trying to get the
idea into my head of why being over an ocean
would cause any alarm for police to tune up. Whether
drone no bigger than a seagull.

Speaker 2 (01:03:32):
And I know, is there any top secret any top
secret buildings there?

Speaker 6 (01:03:37):
No, no, no, it's it's just just off the harbor,
Wellington Harbor, but just off Newland's.

Speaker 2 (01:03:47):
When do you get it back?

Speaker 6 (01:03:49):
They said, possibly two weeks.

Speaker 18 (01:03:52):
What are you going to do with it?

Speaker 6 (01:03:54):
I've got no idea.

Speaker 2 (01:03:55):
This is a true story.

Speaker 6 (01:03:58):
This is a true story.

Speaker 5 (01:04:00):
Yeah, there's.

Speaker 6 (01:04:04):
It happened. It happened about two hours ago. No, it
happened at just before five point thirty.

Speaker 2 (01:04:10):
Why were you flying your drone over the sea.

Speaker 6 (01:04:12):
Well, there was a report of a whale and I
wanted to because it can zoom in twenty five time zoom,
so I could take some photos.

Speaker 11 (01:04:23):
The were you were?

Speaker 2 (01:04:24):
You were you from the suburb of Udons or down
at the coast. Were you up in the hills?

Speaker 16 (01:04:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 17 (01:04:29):
I was.

Speaker 6 (01:04:29):
I was up in the up on the hill and
I just straight out over there over the know.

Speaker 2 (01:04:34):
You know, you're not supposed to fly it too far
away from where you are?

Speaker 3 (01:04:36):
Is that right?

Speaker 2 (01:04:37):
I'm not a drono, but is that what you're supposed
to If you're a drono, you can't go too far.

Speaker 29 (01:04:42):
No, it was only five hundred meters, so I could
still see the aerial lights.

Speaker 6 (01:04:46):
On the drone.

Speaker 29 (01:04:47):
They're still in line of sight.

Speaker 5 (01:04:49):
Okay, but I thought that was mad.

Speaker 2 (01:04:51):
I just did the police come to your house?

Speaker 3 (01:04:54):
No?

Speaker 6 (01:04:55):
No, I I was flying it and they pulled up
behind me, like.

Speaker 29 (01:04:59):
Were you flying it from a road or a Yeah,
just a secluded road just at the end of it
at the Tony area, Okay, yeah, and yeah, I told
them I thought this is just a bizarre response. I
wouldn't expect flying over some.

Speaker 6 (01:05:20):
Water to have police pull up.

Speaker 29 (01:05:23):
I thought they were hidlums behind me, because they pull
up in a musty car and they sit behind me
for about three minutes and then come out and yeah.

Speaker 14 (01:05:33):
So.

Speaker 2 (01:05:35):
How the conversation start?

Speaker 6 (01:05:38):
Well, it started what what sort of equipment have you
got in your van? What what are your electronics in
your van? And I didn't know what they're talking about
this one? And then they said, is that a drone controller?
And they said where are you.

Speaker 29 (01:05:52):
Flying it and I said, I'm just flaying it out
at the harbor there, and they said, well, you need
to bring it back and you need to land it.

Speaker 14 (01:05:59):
As soon as I.

Speaker 6 (01:05:59):
Landed it, they said this has seized and you may
get it back within two weeks. They were polite, but
yeah and yeah, slick what so you know, I'm not

(01:06:21):
I'm not looking to do anything which is breaking the rules.

Speaker 2 (01:06:26):
But were you We're flying it from Newlands or from POTTONI.

Speaker 15 (01:06:31):
Between the two.

Speaker 6 (01:06:31):
I'm not hugely familiar with the area, but I'm working
in the area and it was just a dead end road.

Speaker 29 (01:06:37):
There's no houses around or anything. I just flew it
straight out to the harbor and yeah and yeah in
the fines.

Speaker 2 (01:06:48):
Have you got the policeman's names, I've got his number
in his first name.

Speaker 6 (01:06:55):
Okay, what what's this? I've got his number. So I
was a bit surprised by that.

Speaker 2 (01:07:08):
Did they say, what the what they're concerned about?

Speaker 6 (01:07:11):
Well, they said, well, you flew it over a road,
because there's the main highway there. But I said to him, well,
I've got a clear line of sight and I was
flying quite a lot higher than that.

Speaker 2 (01:07:23):
I think I think it's a I think Newlands people
are telling me it's a it's a flight path.

Speaker 6 (01:07:30):
Yeah, but it's it's over It's over five kilometers away,
isn't it from the Wellington Airport?

Speaker 3 (01:07:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:07:37):
But the flight of the planes coming across over Newlands
when they're landing from the north.

Speaker 29 (01:07:42):
Yeah, but it's because of where I was, it's quite
a lot lower than that.

Speaker 2 (01:07:46):
Well did data know how?

Speaker 3 (01:07:49):
So?

Speaker 6 (01:07:50):
So what I know is in New Zealand you have
to be over four you have to be four kilombras
or more away from an airport, and Newlands is about
fifteen kilometers plus. So I'm not you know, I'm not
in the extrude or anything, but I thought what I was.

Speaker 2 (01:08:08):
Did they tell you? Did they tell you it was
a restricted area?

Speaker 6 (01:08:12):
And they did say that?

Speaker 3 (01:08:13):
Yeah, Well that's a.

Speaker 2 (01:08:15):
Bit of important information, isn't it was that PC gone
mad that you're not allowed to bring a plane down.

Speaker 29 (01:08:20):
Well, I'm thinking the seagulls flying all around the place,
and I'm lower than the hill.

Speaker 2 (01:08:26):
I would have confiscated your drone too. I think when
you say things like that, well.

Speaker 29 (01:08:31):
It's I understand what you're saying. But I was below
those hill line and only five hundred meters away from
the hill, So for a plane to get that close,
I'd be very surprised. Now I have a plane app
as well, which tells me where the planes are.

Speaker 2 (01:08:47):
I'm going to check the thing. Brian, thank you. I've
got to run seventeen to ten. Len Marcus welcome.

Speaker 5 (01:08:53):
Yeah, ayeah, he ain good Lynn.

Speaker 11 (01:08:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 22 (01:08:56):
The guy was just going, yeah, he's agreement. He's a
line of sight. The well into an airport would.

Speaker 5 (01:09:01):
Be less than two kilometers.

Speaker 22 (01:09:02):
He's in a totally restricted.

Speaker 2 (01:09:04):
Airspace, totally totally restrict it from what I can see.

Speaker 22 (01:09:08):
Oh hell mate, I think guys, he could be in
for a big fine and even jail time for doing that.
I used to be in model Flying New Zealand and
we were involved in a lot of the legislation that
came around regarding thrones and airports and anywhere there's an
ally pad or anything. So he's a little bit misinformed
of it.

Speaker 2 (01:09:26):
And that's your trouble with your PC guy on Mad Crowd.
They think they've got the secret source, they think they're
more smart than anyone else, but they bring down a plane.
He said there's seagulls there. Did you hear him say that.

Speaker 22 (01:09:36):
Yeah, well, I've been on the plane leading well into
the airport. The said of seagull, and I tell you what,
the drone makes a bigger mess on the seagull.

Speaker 2 (01:09:42):
Nice to hear from you, Lynn, Thank you, Sam Marcus welcome.

Speaker 5 (01:09:46):
Oh how are you good?

Speaker 2 (01:09:47):
Sam?

Speaker 16 (01:09:48):
Yeah?

Speaker 15 (01:09:49):
Good.

Speaker 9 (01:09:49):
I got a little bit confused with that. Yeah, the
other color as well. With the drone. It's a little
bit hard to know where he was. Where there was
in new Lands or for Tony Beaches, a few different locations.

Speaker 2 (01:10:00):
And I heard the sounds. It sounds to me like
there's another guy talking in his ear. Could you hear
that as well?

Speaker 9 (01:10:06):
Yeah, it was a little bit, a little bit weird,
but I don't know. But as a drone fly, I
fly drones for photography, not for professional purposes, and fishing
drone as well. I have flown and done fishing in
the harbor. Another caller was saying that we are close
to airport. He is right. There's an app called Airshare

(01:10:29):
that I think all drone users should have it in
New Zealand. And before you fly, you get clearance from
the thing that flight controller whether you are good to
go or not, and then you can fly safely within
the parameters of how how you go and things like that.

Speaker 2 (01:10:47):
Appreciate it. Good to hear from you, Sam, Thank you
not to unpicked from Brian. Weren't they Wow? Someone said
different states in America have warrants. By the way, also too.
It is to day Kesh Purtel landed in Wellington, wasn't it.
I mean that might be heightened security for him. I
would imagine head of the FBI is visiting. You probably

(01:11:14):
got some playing clothes police going around having a bit
look at what's going on. Brian is the reason the
world is going PC mad. Every drone pilot thinks they're
an expert. If he's into that, he should get one
of those apps for drone pilots and learn the rules.

(01:11:37):
It's controlled airspace down to ground level in that area,
nothing to do with distance from the airport pilot, Steve,
I reckon most people don't really like drone pilots today.
They reckon they are a little bit of a menace. Yeah,
I don't have much interested. I've never thought I'll never

(01:11:58):
wake I thought that today I'm going to buy a drone.
There aren't something that it appeals to me. Rick don't
know why normally break, don't they. That's what I've always thought.
People get drones, they last about two days and they're
actually smashed somewhere, lost in a tree. Very busy night. Anyway,

(01:12:31):
get in touch of your talk Marcus till midnight. The tsunami,
Carlos days and drones doesn't see on this many places. Well,
int and you can fly your drone because such a
narrow little valley where everyone lives. Anyway, get in touch

(01:12:55):
Marcus till midnight. Anyone, dar anyone predict Justin Tradeau and
Katie Pierry going on a date. That'd be a good one.
Someone predicted that it's all over the wires. I'm still
getting over when Justin Trudeau and his family went to

(01:13:15):
India an orderary stup room with it like something out
of the Simpsons. Maynard Marcus, welcome, Hey, how we doing good?
Maynard yourself?

Speaker 18 (01:13:26):
I'm pretty good.

Speaker 21 (01:13:27):
How are you doing good?

Speaker 2 (01:13:28):
Thank you?

Speaker 5 (01:13:33):
I was today.

Speaker 24 (01:13:34):
I want to just bring up the alert thing.

Speaker 2 (01:13:36):
Yeah, I was in you.

Speaker 20 (01:13:39):
I just thought it was a funny story. I was
in the I was in UNI today in like the
clock quiet section of the library and the alert went
off and no one reacted at all. I like, I
looked up to see if there would be like any
funny reactions singing out the whole room. It was like
probably like one hundred people in this room and no
one cared.

Speaker 2 (01:14:00):
I mean they were to Emmerston's study.

Speaker 24 (01:14:03):
Yeah, and normally I'm normally I'm the same, totally totally
the same. But I was just freaking out. I was like, oh, well,
we're all going to get swept away, and then no
one did.

Speaker 2 (01:14:15):
It's funny. Yeah, and no one even checked it.

Speaker 5 (01:14:18):
Yeah, no one did.

Speaker 24 (01:14:19):
Everyone was just looking at their their paper.

Speaker 6 (01:14:22):
It was it was insane.

Speaker 2 (01:14:24):
Good story. Thanks May Dad, Chris good evening.

Speaker 7 (01:14:27):
Yeah, Hi, Hi Marca good thanks.

Speaker 6 (01:14:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 18 (01:14:32):
I don't know much about AI, but yeah, it's helpful
in some topics, but not always straightforward. But I was
just going to go a little bit off topic. But
it was about the Internet. I mean, I think internet
is glowing New Zealand. It's still not fast as they

(01:14:53):
make out it is. It doesn't matter what you pay
or or how much you pay, because it's the same
speed anyway. I mean, I don't get any faster. I've
paid higher rates of internet use in lower rates of
internet and you still get the same service. So I
really don't. I really think our technology is still underrated

(01:15:19):
compared to the roost of the world. I give the
internets a bit faster and actually much less than what
we pay here.

Speaker 2 (01:15:26):
I okay, gillieve it there, Christ But thank you, Laurience.
Marcus welcome.

Speaker 11 (01:15:33):
Yeah, hid Marcus, you're to start on that droneus who
you know? I don't know if you realize. I was
still doing photography from assess in areas where it's difficult
for drones to get permission to operate. And the interesting
thing is supposedly just the latest drones that are coming out,

(01:15:56):
it's had the restrictions move removed from the software that
used to be there so you couldn't actually fly them.
And looks of the airports.

Speaker 2 (01:16:04):
Oh okay, okay, so they got some they've got some
sort of overrider.

Speaker 11 (01:16:09):
Well there used to be, but now I think that
cooperation with the company has passed, and then I suppose
the coming onto the market with with that removed. But
it's interesting that area where the guy.

Speaker 31 (01:16:23):
Was talking and which Tony Newland's.

Speaker 11 (01:16:28):
Several years ago, I used to do a lot of
aero photography of the quarry that big quarry called Horacue Quarry,
and I mean that was a really touching area to
keep permission for actually taken focus from the SESNA that
you know you were because you were in radio contact.
I would to sort of put you on hold and
you come and take a pass. But I could imagine

(01:16:51):
the excitement as you say, was the head of the FBI, and.

Speaker 2 (01:16:57):
I stood. I mean it didn't sound right that he was.
Didn't tell that sort of guy that was taking drone
shots of whales, some some.

Speaker 11 (01:17:04):
Clean for trying to fly floody drone and but touching
on that one. And they say, mostly the ones I
do around partly Wanganui and places like that h on
the you know, restricted airspace areas and so very difficult
for drones to get permission. But even then, you know,

(01:17:24):
we put in the flight pales to the day before,
and then when we come to do it the old
they try and put us in and you know, other
aircraft that are moving about move us in and out.
But the I mean even last Friday we got half
way through the big doing the big lend for Funny
Glenn near it's near Martin, but it's in the Haka

(01:17:46):
Training training space and we got halfway down there and
then they said they wanted to you know, training to resume,
and so we had to vacate that and don't have
a cup of team wanting to come back later on.
Finished the job. But it's when the chap mentioned the
seagulls what height they fly at? Particularly, I do know

(01:18:09):
at Bonny Glennon over summer we do some of those
quarries once.

Speaker 21 (01:18:14):
A month, and we've been doing them for many years now.

Speaker 11 (01:18:17):
But the with the sort of the kail or that's
great Earth and you're getting in the middle of the summer,
you get sort of thermals there, and the old seagulls
have been riding the thermals up to over fifteen hundred feet.
The pilot the disaster.

Speaker 5 (01:18:38):
Freaking out.

Speaker 11 (01:18:42):
These are the big, big back buggers, you know. So
we've went up to two thousand feet and we had
to get separate permissions to go up to that next
layer that the fortunately seagulls went riding quite that high.

Speaker 2 (01:18:57):
To those that don't know, Laurie that you do aerial
photography of quarries because you can talk at you can
work out how much mess has been removed.

Speaker 6 (01:19:05):
Is that right?

Speaker 5 (01:19:06):
It's right.

Speaker 11 (01:19:06):
Yeah, they're done monthly and they can do volumes. Yeah,
you're not. Also, you know some goods for you know,
consents and stuff like that. But you know it's the
three D images they do and quarry stockpiles all that
sort of stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:19:20):
Yeah, Is it all for their accounting? Is it because
you're sure they know how much has gone by, how much,
how many trucks have gone out, wouldn't they.

Speaker 11 (01:19:26):
Well yeah, I mean in theory, yeah, supposedly it was
the thought one supot of time that everything whatever of
the quarry always went over the way bridge?

Speaker 20 (01:19:38):
Is it not?

Speaker 2 (01:19:39):
Are they looking for leakage?

Speaker 18 (01:19:41):
No, it's not.

Speaker 11 (01:19:42):
It's probably a number of things. But I think as
part of the consent they've actually got to monitor the
what's happening here. But quite often they have a number
of different contractors working within each quarry who have and
they're reading different stockpiles. So it's the the size of

(01:20:02):
those stockpiles is what they get paid for. Basically said,
encounters do it that way. Yeah, and there's quite a
number of people with this particular company.

Speaker 30 (01:20:13):
We do them.

Speaker 11 (01:20:16):
Monthly and some of them get done by drones away.
And once you've got a number to do. It's quite
quite sufficient to do a whole lot with the aircraft
because each time you have to drive, so because we
operate from like Hastings right down.

Speaker 9 (01:20:35):
Pie to.

Speaker 11 (01:20:38):
Me over to Longwi and so you can do all
that and run really quickly in the seas. But if
you've got somebody drive, having to drive and set up
each sign, you know it. We'll take a couple of days.

Speaker 2 (01:20:49):
I'll live there are a bit nice to talk. Thank you,
even priver of this is Marcus. Welcome there you go
on good things.

Speaker 32 (01:20:56):
Yeah, I just sort of take a bit of time
out from chaos and thing has just come. But hey,
these these notifications on the phone on starting to get
slapped off with them seeing it through notifications they're going
to shut down my two G three G network.

Speaker 15 (01:21:10):
Oh yeah, okay, and so they put that in before.

Speaker 32 (01:21:13):
You, you know, you dial the number and then they
chuck that and you know they've got to listen to
the spill on that. But especially out on the farm
and that there's there must be a lot of farms
around the countryside that still rely on the three G network.

Speaker 5 (01:21:26):
How come.

Speaker 32 (01:21:28):
Oh just for coverage? Okay, yeah, but I was just
wondering how they you know, have you talked about it much?

Speaker 2 (01:21:36):
No, not at all. No, I haven't even mentioned I
get it. But yeah, does that mean you guys go
to the Elon Musk satellites up in the sky.

Speaker 4 (01:21:44):
Well that's that.

Speaker 32 (01:21:44):
Yeah, But well I'm still on the copper for my internet.
But yeah, it's just like when you're out on the
farm and that you know, even just pinetree growing around
these stations, they stick up in the trip. It's hard
to get coverage.

Speaker 2 (01:22:04):
So what is what is your provo ship provider offering you?

Speaker 20 (01:22:09):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (01:22:09):
Nothing?

Speaker 32 (01:22:09):
They just say, you know, we're shutting down your your
three You're dialing a three G number that's going to
be shut down in December. But they think you know
that's so they tell you that either buy something like this.
The phone that I'm ringing you on does four G
as well. But I'm just wondering how they you know,
the big Brother syndrome, they can force everybody off the

(01:22:30):
two G three G network.

Speaker 2 (01:22:32):
I don't know if it's I don't know if it's
Big Brother syndrome. I think it's just technology has changed.
It's probably not worth their while sustaining that or keeping it.

Speaker 3 (01:22:39):
M M.

Speaker 32 (01:22:41):
But like I say, you know, you're still going to
have to go out and neither buy something to come
up to speed, aren't we really?

Speaker 18 (01:22:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:22:48):
But I think that's a big brother. I think there's
just commerce, isn't it.

Speaker 25 (01:22:53):
Oh it forces you interline, doesn't it.

Speaker 2 (01:22:56):
Yeah, that'd be my take. Good luck anyway, Trevor braid
Os Marcus welcome.

Speaker 6 (01:23:01):
How are you good?

Speaker 2 (01:23:02):
Bread ox?

Speaker 30 (01:23:03):
Yeah, a thing that you're talking about, and also the
last call of mate. He needs to start coming up
with the times. I'm even using a phone that I
brought in Australia, brought back to New Zealand. Better plans,
better deals. Yes, So do you have any questions about

(01:23:29):
AI because I am very well aware.

Speaker 27 (01:23:34):
No, that's good.

Speaker 2 (01:23:35):
I see this hang on Bradocks. I see these models
in Vogue now that are generator. Even the models have
become AI.

Speaker 30 (01:23:45):
But you can't beat going to the supermarket and just
dealing with a normal person. I think a lot of
our listeners will be listening this evening and AI is
going to take over. It's very unfortunate. I've got younger children,

(01:24:07):
but it's about that just even going to the supermarket,
sitting with going to your normal checkout person just go, hey,
how are you doing?

Speaker 2 (01:24:18):
When you started? Can ask your questions about I did
know anything about it?

Speaker 5 (01:24:23):
I know quite a bit?

Speaker 16 (01:24:24):
How okay?

Speaker 5 (01:24:28):
So the Godfather?

Speaker 2 (01:24:30):
How do you know about it?

Speaker 31 (01:24:32):
Are you?

Speaker 5 (01:24:32):
Are you?

Speaker 18 (01:24:34):
I learned about it.

Speaker 30 (01:24:37):
I studied it for a bit, and then when I
get fascinated about something.

Speaker 2 (01:24:44):
Yes, so you're not an academic. You've read a lot
about it?

Speaker 27 (01:24:47):
Is that right?

Speaker 3 (01:24:49):
No?

Speaker 6 (01:24:49):
I am an academic.

Speaker 2 (01:24:51):
We're it.

Speaker 30 (01:24:54):
I was Wellington.

Speaker 2 (01:24:57):
You said you studied it for you see you studied
it for a bit.

Speaker 30 (01:25:01):
Yes, but I moved on to other.

Speaker 5 (01:25:05):
Pragmatics, like what what would you like to know?

Speaker 3 (01:25:11):
Now?

Speaker 2 (01:25:11):
What are the pragmatic things? You moved on to bradogs?

Speaker 5 (01:25:15):
Okay?

Speaker 11 (01:25:16):
All right?

Speaker 6 (01:25:17):
Uh, psychology also.

Speaker 5 (01:25:27):
Many things.

Speaker 2 (01:25:28):
Okay, I might just leave there. You're fading, Daniel.

Speaker 6 (01:25:34):
Hey, Mike, I said, you're doing your own good?

Speaker 14 (01:25:36):
Good?

Speaker 2 (01:25:36):
Did you think too?

Speaker 5 (01:25:38):
Hey?

Speaker 11 (01:25:38):
Good?

Speaker 6 (01:25:38):
Listen. I was going to tell you. It's a little
anecdote I had occurred to me. So last year November,
my partner and I was shot over to China, but
we stopped for about three days in Australia and they
had only just turned off three G one week prior Anyway,
long story short, I had roaming on my profile through

(01:25:58):
you know, One New Zealand right, and basically as soon
as I got there, just wouldn't work, wouldn't work. And
I'm ex Telco guy, so I knew something was fundamentally wrong,
you know. I mean, like it wasn't the handset because
it was of only a two year old iPhone, right,
and you know, they were going through the network engineers
and all the rest of it, and it got resolved
in about twenty four hours. And it was basically that

(01:26:20):
they had, you know, something fundamental in One New Zealand.
Back in New Zealand, the way they build their profiles
for roaming, there's a three G like a core component
that they just rely on, and they didn't they didn't
occur to them that it wouldn't work for me in
Australia because of this recent one week old change. So
there's a lot of I fear that we're going to

(01:26:40):
have something similar happen in New Zealand. When they turn
off three G A lot of things will just stop
working and they have to pick up the pieces afterwards,
you know, like I don't know, sea pat machines and
all those kinds of things where people use for monitoring,
you know what I mean. Or yeah, things sitting on
the side of the road sending back things like you
know what they're gonna do with the speak camera speak

(01:27:01):
cameras in the future where there would just be a
trailer on the side of the road. There's a lot
of those sort of things where they rely on data.

Speaker 5 (01:27:06):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:27:06):
Yeah, how many people you know a mini's in the
on three G.

Speaker 6 (01:27:12):
I wouldn't know the breakdown of it's I'm not a
long time out of the game, but.

Speaker 2 (01:27:17):
You'd say it's embedded a lot of things that people
would not be aware of.

Speaker 6 (01:27:21):
Right, Oh yeah, and like for example, you know your
your aunt flow that's got to knock you. I mean
that there's no way that's running four G.

Speaker 5 (01:27:27):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 6 (01:27:28):
There's a lot of those. Yeah, so yeah, it's it's
going to be a bit of a cluster for the
first few months. I'll tell you that.

Speaker 2 (01:27:34):
Do you know what, I haven't really when's it going off.

Speaker 6 (01:27:37):
End of this year? They're saying, so, yeah, it was
going to be last year, but they just didn't get
direct together. So that's why it's gone out another year.

Speaker 2 (01:27:45):
Okay, I appreciate you coming through, Daniel, Thank you, Hi,
Terry Marcus, welcome there. The good try.

Speaker 12 (01:27:53):
A very good.

Speaker 33 (01:27:54):
Now, it's just a joke about the that your own fine, yeah,
you know, I was just kind of curious about the link.
What's the difference from if you favor quite good point,
if you qua it quite it's basically the same lore
when you're basically if you're near airport, if you're with

(01:28:15):
the kite, it's kind of the same lore.

Speaker 5 (01:28:18):
Are the rude?

Speaker 2 (01:28:19):
What are the rules around cuts?

Speaker 33 (01:28:21):
Well, apparently you're not supposed to fly them no close
to an airport, apparently. And then so I'm just you know,
I'm just trying to back up the guy who's just
on before about flying drones. It's just kind of it's
kind of crazy to be kind of controlling, like like

(01:28:43):
you're not allowed to, you know, use your own self
initiative to like just you know, you know, brains basically
for like flying is the common sense? You know that
common sense? These days, I feel like everything is kind
of but.

Speaker 2 (01:29:01):
The trouble with the trouble with people's common sense is
that people that aren't very smart, I think they've got
common sense.

Speaker 11 (01:29:05):
No, a lot of.

Speaker 2 (01:29:09):
A lot of a lot of the stupid so and
as that guy was, Terry. But I don't know the
rules about kite. I love a good kite right at
the end of its string, brilliant. I've had kites very high.
But you don't know if a kit would be more
dangerous than the drone. I suppose probably the string gets
tall in there. Nice to hear from you, Terry. Line
them up if you want to come through people hurdle

(01:29:30):
twelve oh wait, one hundred and eighty ten eighty nights
flooring by that toys a good sign. Get in touch
if you want to hitle the end the bitter end text.
I'll get to those. I don't know much about three G.
I don't know what the G means, but we'll get
to that. Marcus flipping heck, I just got that emergency

(01:29:52):
allude again. That's a third since landing back, and you're
sealingd at eight thirty. I'm currently driving through Huntley, so
about as far from tsunami risk as possible. Anyone going
to Huntly speaking a hunting anyway, Huntly speaking a Huntley
to get that pie rhubarb and raspberry woo sounds good, Marcus,

(01:30:18):
I think what that gentleman was saying about the tsunami.
There's a lot of land mask between Russia and here,
whereas there is none between Chile and here, so the
tsunami would travel unbroken across the Pacific. I think that
person needs to look up Camchuka on the map or
on the risk board. I was on the bus and

(01:30:38):
the lady went off first. At about two minutes late,
everyone went off. What's the difference? What's difference between flying
a drone and flying an old vintage model aircraft a
Mervsmith's model shop. Exactly where is Tony Doagne? Tony Dae
retired about a year ago that he came back for

(01:30:58):
a stint. But yeah, he's sixty six or something. Old guy.
I hit a kite while flying a helicopter a few
years ago. Hit blow my feet and sound like a
shotgun going off of the cop but never saw a thing.
Passenger side me saw a flash of red. Wonder what
the hell happened? Kevin? This was a great feeling hanging

(01:31:21):
off the end of a coat. So this guy that's
swearing black and blue that Carlos Days was seventy four.
Oh well, jumping if you want a word spent a
good night actually, but of everything a dream night with

(01:31:44):
its tsunami and the alert. Don't switch your alerts off.
That's not a good thing to do. But yeah, I
do think the government needs to be very careful with
the how when they send them out. Meanwhile, I'm bluff.
All the ships at Anchor have gone out into the harbor,

(01:32:06):
so I've gone out into the strait. They've gone back
out hang out by Stuart Island. I don't know why
they made that call on if any other harbors did that,
I haven't heard of any. So there you have it.
Welcome to the show here till twelve o'clock tonight. I

(01:32:29):
are just about AI. I was looking on Facebook the
other day and I saw the video of Izy Osborne's
funeral with Brian May playing a guitar effict hang on,
but it was just posted as that was coverage of it.
Though surely I would have heard about the funeral, but
realize the funeral haven't been yet. So yeah, Facebook is

(01:32:51):
going to become even more not worth going to if
it gets swamped with AI videos and stuff like that,
because it's just pointless. But yeah, she's certainly all happening quickly.
I see there's now Vogue photo shoots featuring AI models.

(01:33:15):
So models are no longer a thing. I mean a
modeling career that's off the tables for people. Don't know
if that's good to a bad thing, but it'll be
AI acknowledge you've received an alert with Okay, it will stop.
You want to do that? Jan anyway, do get in
touch if you want to talk. Eight hundred eighty ten
eighty and nine two nine two text looking forward to

(01:33:37):
your calls twenty five away from eleven. Yes, I do here.
It'll twelve oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty and nine
two nine two to text. If you want to be
a part of it, How do I do it?

Speaker 12 (01:33:51):
Dan?

Speaker 3 (01:33:55):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:33:55):
Oh okay, yeah, Chris, it's Marcus. Good evening.

Speaker 3 (01:33:59):
Hi Micaus.

Speaker 2 (01:34:00):
Oh wow.

Speaker 3 (01:34:03):
As nice and clear?

Speaker 2 (01:34:04):
Oh yeah wow. Get Jason on the phone. For those
that don't know, Chris has called via WhatsApp. It's why
don't we deal with this with all the calls?

Speaker 3 (01:34:20):
Yeah, j Well makes sense especially for remote areas. That's great.

Speaker 2 (01:34:24):
So tell people where you are, Chris.

Speaker 3 (01:34:26):
I'm in ubered up in the jungle and Bali.

Speaker 2 (01:34:29):
Okay with the monkeys. They still have the monkeys that
buy people.

Speaker 5 (01:34:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 34 (01:34:33):
Yeah, there are a few kilometers away from where I
am that ten meters on the scooter down to central Lubert,
but they're there for sure.

Speaker 2 (01:34:40):
I have actually been to Ubered, but that would be
would have been in about nineteen ninety. I don't imagine
it was full of sort of Germans.

Speaker 3 (01:34:45):
Is that right?

Speaker 2 (01:34:46):
The Germans moved there in the fifties or something.

Speaker 5 (01:34:48):
Is that what happened with them?

Speaker 34 (01:34:49):
Yeah, a lot of Germans, quite a few Australians. I
don't know a single another key we hear, So.

Speaker 2 (01:34:56):
You live there?

Speaker 5 (01:34:58):
I do now, yes?

Speaker 34 (01:34:59):
Since August? Oh wow, okay, yeah, and I tell you
what the talking about. Two things the tsunami warnings in
New Zealand. Whenever we hear it, have a bit of
a rumble here, and we have an earthquake. Everyone rushes
outside and looks towards the volcano to see if it's erupting.

Speaker 3 (01:35:16):
No text message alerts. And kites beautiful.

Speaker 34 (01:35:22):
So we've got windy season here at the moment, so
every evening all the local kids go outside and you've
got kites with a little led on them, and they
be hundreds of them in the sky. Just beautiful hate.
Any drones come past, we we try and get knocked
them out of the sky. I can't stand them.

Speaker 3 (01:35:41):
Something the users either.

Speaker 2 (01:35:43):
Tell me something just about Barley, because I've always I
love Barlei as everyone does. And you always see a
lot of news stories about Ballei with sort of influences
have gone. Then they're not happy. It's always in the
news for all sorts of reasons. Do you think that
Bali is ultimately long term sustainable? I mean, how many people.
It's a small island, isn't it.

Speaker 34 (01:36:03):
Yeah, it is small. Look, the sound of Bali is
completely congested. They have built tiny little villas and apartment
complexes near the airport, so the roads are clogged down there.
But once you get up to Ubwood and then north
of Ubood, you know, I five minutes on the scooter

(01:36:25):
to the supermarket. I've got about fifty cafes and restaurants,
five gyms, all within walking distance. It's it's a different
life up here. So what everyone sees on the media
in terms of bad news stories with drunken tourists and
all that stuff that happens in Couda and Changu, and yeah,

(01:36:46):
those areas are definitely overpopulated, but that's the place to
be seen the expats that live up in Ubuda here
for the lifestyle.

Speaker 2 (01:36:54):
Because the thing that staggers me, it's four point four
million and it's only like seven it's only like seventy
k's across, is that right? Seventy miles seventy seventy k's
but are seventy miles by ninety five years. Ok So
it's a bit big than I thought, but it's not huge,
is it?

Speaker 3 (01:37:09):
No, not huge?

Speaker 34 (01:37:09):
And the roads are all very small, so you're not
going fast in your where. I've got a two fifty
c seed bike and I can't go faster than eighty
on the best stretch of road.

Speaker 3 (01:37:19):
So that's why don't have a car here. There's just
no point, do you What.

Speaker 2 (01:37:24):
If you want to go down to the airport or
you just get a drive, you just be driven down.
Would you you get a bus or you get it?

Speaker 34 (01:37:29):
I've got the driver always on call, so you pick
up lots of connections for different services and they look
after you and it's yeah, it's easy.

Speaker 2 (01:37:37):
Okay, Hey, well I'm going to go because ive got commercials.
But look, stay in touch. It's fantastic that you've called
us on WhatsApp.

Speaker 3 (01:37:43):
Great.

Speaker 2 (01:37:44):
Oh sorry, I keep pulling a great Sorry, I've got
the wrong thing. I've got the name up. But we'll
have to work that out Dan, so we know who
I'm talking to as well. Yeah, but Chris, that's perfect.
So thanks for the test case. I'll let you go,
but fantastic, thank you. So that's Chris. Chris has called
we've called him, or he's called us Dan, He's called
us on WhatsApp. So that's a feature and people in
New Zealand can do that too, can't they. Okay, we'll

(01:38:10):
talk more about that after Bak I take a break,
I'll tell you more about what'sapp Brittett's Marcus, good evening.

Speaker 21 (01:38:18):
Yeah, Marcus here. We had a fishing kite. It was
a night talk. It was two and a half meters
across and yeah, we had some fun with that. We
send it out a kilometer. There was one pair of tires,
always got offshore ones. And the first time we put
it out we got some really good snapper seven ranging
between such and twelve pounds. And then the second time

(01:38:40):
we pull it out we got all gurner and one
was the biggest gun that I've ever seen.

Speaker 2 (01:38:45):
It's just a standard stand to cut the old night talk,
isn't It's like a like a wind delta kite.

Speaker 21 (01:38:51):
You got like a yeah, well they had the people
would they went across the back. You had to break
it because you couldn't wind it in. You had to
let it go in the water and break the backbone.
We called it to make it easier to come. One day,
this bottle of shane come off somehow. Anyway, we look

(01:39:11):
out and use the old fish up in the ear.

Speaker 2 (01:39:14):
Oh that's funny.

Speaker 21 (01:39:15):
Yeah, we just need to let it go and hit
the water and that's funny moment. It was funny. Yeah,
So how does it work?

Speaker 2 (01:39:24):
How does it really release the line?

Speaker 21 (01:39:27):
Well, it dragged out. You picked the kite up, and
then you had the bottle of shane. And if you
know how much shane you put in the bottle because
you wanted to drag the bottle out and not lift
it up, then you had too much. I wouldn't drag it.
And then it just dragged the hooks out okay a
thousand meters and enjoyed it back in.

Speaker 2 (01:39:44):
Like to know what happened to that kite?

Speaker 27 (01:39:45):
Brett?

Speaker 21 (01:39:46):
Yeah, probably sitting the brothers. She gone covered in dust.
It was about fifteen years ago when you got.

Speaker 2 (01:39:54):
It, but you get onto a nice to talk, Brett.
Thank you. Seventeen to eleven eight text Tier Marcus just
want to say, sady guy Smith found a Capri hospital
rehab passed yesterday. Can you mention this help many addicts
ledgend anyway, I hope you can many. Thanks great show,
longtime listener. That is sad news. I knew him rather well,
so thanks for that text now Bluebridge, good evening all.

(01:40:22):
Due to the Russian earthquake this morning and the potential
for unusual title activity, Port Marlborough have made the decision
to close the port between one fifteen and six am.
On says thirty Fest of May must have been thirty
first of July. Unfortunately we have to cancel the two
thirty am Livia picked into Wellington sailing tomorrow. We apologize
for the short notes and the disruption this caused your operation.
Our freight team will work to accomminate your bookings. All

(01:40:48):
Jan has to do is reply, okay, the notification stop coming.
Very exciting to hear from Jan tonight. That was not
what I was expecting. So WhatsApp. Why is WhatsApp so
much better if you're overseas? Is it not free to call?

(01:41:10):
If you're overseas, Dan, it's not free to call the
hotline on WhatsApp? It's free. So if you're overseas, here's
how you get in touch with the show.

Speaker 5 (01:41:24):
Dan.

Speaker 14 (01:41:24):
What do you do?

Speaker 2 (01:41:28):
Okay? You email me or message the Facebook page? I
send that to Dan. Then Dan, what do you do?

Speaker 3 (01:41:42):
Then?

Speaker 2 (01:41:42):
Dan gives you the phone number and you can call.
Are we being a little bit stingy with the phone number?

Speaker 14 (01:41:47):
Dan?

Speaker 2 (01:41:52):
Small steps? Yes for now? Okay, it sounds sick. Would
it always be as clear as him? And the reason
locals can't call on the phone is because it's just
not a Why can't Why can't we have a phone

(01:42:16):
book for a WhatsApp thing as well and you can
answer those calls. Will that be possible in the future
for multiple lines? I mean, it's so much clearer. Why
aren't we doing that?

Speaker 6 (01:42:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:42:29):
Anyway, I don't let Yeah anyway, I don't.

Speaker 11 (01:42:31):
I don't want to.

Speaker 2 (01:42:31):
I don't want to tell them how to do their job.
But that was so clear, It was too clear. Actually,
I thought he's in the room with a bit freaked out. Wow,

(01:42:52):
fancy having spoken to ub tonight was spoken to nahru Ubud.
It's amazing how many people live in Balley and there's
still all that sort of open pastures and field and rice,
and what a remarkable place. I've got somebody that keeps
emailing me and says or takes me in his markets
because you explain the rule of the roundabouts. They're just

(01:43:14):
trolling me, aren't they.

Speaker 5 (01:43:18):
Anyway?

Speaker 2 (01:43:19):
My kid, one of my kids, they called me a
panic indicator. And I thought I was always something that
indicates quite a long time and advice. I always thought
I'm an over indicator. We're driving along, he said, look
at that over indication like me. He said, you're un
over indicator. You're a panic indicator. I said, I think
I am. Anyway, I won't be giving them a lift anymore.

(01:43:42):
We trolled by my own children about my indicating, so
not a panic indicator. I don't know what he's referring to. Actually,
I said, your mother, she's indicates without much time before
it's going to go around the corner. But anyway, there

(01:44:03):
we go. Panic indicator. Ah Marcus WhatsApp is great, but
as he's been put out, you seeing there's a slow
so great picture and video calls if you have good
internet signal. Oh yeah, I don't. I don't even know
how the telcos are still in business. I can't believe it.

(01:44:25):
You could call some one on WhatsApp and you calls
it on Facebook. Why do you want to use a phone.
A lot of boys to tears. But once upon a
time you have to speak quickly on a toll call
because it'll be expensive. Couldn't do small talk in those days.
We probably could now it's nine from eleven. If you

(01:44:49):
want to be a part of the show, I feel
we've done everything we need to do tonight. We've spoken
to Naaru, We've spoken to oh Would, We've talked about
com Chutka. That's most. That's where the earthquake was most.
Peop want to come Chutka from the risk board game
you take, come Chuck. And then again to Europe, I think,

(01:45:09):
well again to America. Actually, my name is Marcus. Welcome
here to the end. Eight hundred and eighty ten eighty
nine nine text black Caps are playing. I'll give you
a score on that. I'm just not that into Zimbabwe.
I'm not that into twenty twenty? Is it twenty twenty.
It's twenty twenty is a test Oh, it's the first

(01:45:33):
of the tests. I don't like the name bill Away
a sixty nine for five Zimbabwe, So sorry for everything
I said. Ignore all that didn't come across. Well, it's
a test match. The twenty twenties are over nine away
from eleven. If you want to be a part of

(01:45:54):
the show. The tsunami alerts. That's one of the topics,
but there's other stuff out there as well. Bluebridge canceled
their sailings container vessels all anchor instead of tied up
and port to ropes don't break tension with a surge

(01:46:15):
of the waves causing drifting in the harbor. Did anyone
go and try the potato top pie today or the
rhubarb and raspberry one. Got quite a good email from
a guy today that done a book on pies in
one of my addressed But I don't need more books.
But I'll actually text them back. I'm just trying to

(01:46:37):
find the email. He's done a book on pies, the
Gourmet Pie Book. So the Gourmet Pie Book, he says,
it's possibly with highlighting that we had so many pie
establishment to the South Island. We had seventeen the North Island,
twenty one in the South Island, and there wasn't a

(01:46:58):
single winner South Island winner in any category this year.
So I'm just saying that, probably despite the Backel's Pie Awoods,
which are very Auckland focused, where the real imagination and
creativity and pies as happening as in the South Island,

(01:47:21):
that's the pie heartland of this country. So yeah, if
you're on a pie of pilgrimage, if you're looking for
great pies, probably the South Islands the place to start.
That would be my input there. Anyway, I am from Auckland,
not far from Albany, where the winning pie is cromwinll
I think you have to go a long way to
beat Sangers pies from Cromwell. Yeah, I don't know about Sanger's.

(01:47:42):
Very salty, and a lot was going on with the place.
I thought they'd grown too quick there, with breweries and
all sorts of things going on. Didn't feel the love,
just me might try it again sometime. Very salty. Maybe
I just had a bad batch to Tray's pie. There
was it, but I kind of thought that they were
slightly Some of those places grow a bit quick, don't they.

(01:48:04):
They kind of get the support and anyway, good luck
to them. Great town.

Speaker 27 (01:48:10):
We all know that.

Speaker 2 (01:48:13):
Be in touch. If you want to be a part
of the show. My name is Marcus. Welcome, But Yester
South isld is pie central. Remember that terrified tourists sprint
to their Hawaiian cruise ship as warnings ring out him
in pandemonium across the Pacific, But some holidaymakers were left
behind Tsunami panic is the ship's left, that's the headline. Still,

(01:48:40):
we got back to pies as a discussion. Our love
fear with pies and fast food is almost religious. No
wonder where the seconds fattest and the oecd and trending up. Marcus,
I'd agree with you about saying his pies very salty meat,
can be a bit dry, and feel they grew too
quickly and couldn't cope with keeping the standards high as
it used to be when they first started. Still a
great pie, But would you charge nine dollars plus for

(01:49:02):
a pie you expect a certain quality? Fairly, pies aren't
much been a bit of a tourist trap. Give me
a Jimmy's Mutton pie any day. Andrew from Warnicer put
loyalty with pies too, isn't there anyway? Hey, how's it
all going people? That's well, by the way, I just
went to the car to charge my phone because I've

(01:49:24):
got a new phone and it doesn't fit the charger
at work, but because if I was out of charge,
so we had to sit in my car to charge
my phone. And it came on the phone from zero
charge to one percent. As soon as it came on,
the alert went off again, so it felt like jam,

(01:49:45):
oh God, not the alert again anyway, So it's not
a new alert, it's the same alert alert Alert alert.
Get in touch by name as Marcus Welcome, How are you?
What's happening? It's all about the alert tonight and drones

(01:50:07):
and AI and WhatsApp.

Speaker 6 (01:50:15):
Is.

Speaker 2 (01:50:15):
I don't know what we're going to eat? What's going
to happen with this muddle with a videos that you
can't tell one from the other people seem to be
desperate to muddy the water as well. Dave welcome, Yeah,
they are good day.

Speaker 23 (01:50:29):
Hey. When I hear when I hear of pies for
twelve bucks, I think of the old dollar mint, some
vEDS from coupland.

Speaker 2 (01:50:35):
Eld Square seems a lot, doesn't it.

Speaker 23 (01:50:38):
Yeah, it's successive. Now, hang on, hang.

Speaker 2 (01:50:41):
Hang on, Dave, can I just stop you there? When
we have the when we have the home match for
the rugby and bluff with the home you know, with
the home team, we get pies for the visiting people
because the weather can be but bleak.

Speaker 3 (01:50:53):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (01:50:54):
And we got to Copeland's and get them. And I
see they got rewarded in the best commercial pie. They
got second or third. It's a good pie. I snuck
one the other. It's a great pie. Nothing wrong with them,
nothing wrong all. And once at a dollar forty I
think now or something when we bought them, and well
we bought them in bulk.

Speaker 23 (01:51:14):
Yes, well so you should have got a bulk price
because I didn't.

Speaker 2 (01:51:18):
I didn't pay the pay the cost. But they're a quality.

Speaker 23 (01:51:20):
Pie macause they were at one time under a dollar
and then they went up to a dollar and ten.
And I used to get them, bring them home and
put cheese.

Speaker 2 (01:51:31):
Just slip a bit of cheese up yourself, youere.

Speaker 23 (01:51:35):
Wow, I jushed them up myself. And there's nothing wrong
with them.

Speaker 2 (01:51:38):
No, I respect you. I respect your moxy doing that
to your pie. That's a great idea. Now have you
have you ever put a pie between two slices of bread?

Speaker 23 (01:51:49):
No, that's successive to me to know. I get a
bit of tomato sauce on and that's my limit. No,
I don't need Moxtra cabs now, Warren't I fercuses in
Western Australia, they don't have them. It's when you get
a registration register a K you also pay for third
party and I think that's a damn good idea.

Speaker 2 (01:52:06):
Yeah, I stair well clear of that because that's like
talk about catnap. If you say compulsory third party insurance
you get oh yeah, yeah, but yeah, I don't really
understand it, but yeah, it makes sense, doesn't it. So
if it's next yeah, you'll sort it out right.

Speaker 23 (01:52:21):
Y is captnap.

Speaker 14 (01:52:22):
I appreciate that. Good evenings.

Speaker 2 (01:52:24):
Nice to talk to you, Dave. Thank you, appreciate you
coming through tonight. HITDLE twelve. That's what we're on about tonight.
Don't if I use catnap in the right terms. There,
Hi and net this is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 14 (01:52:37):
Hi.

Speaker 16 (01:52:38):
I'm just wondering what's the whole of New Zealand supposed
to get that alert. I live in Rainguro and I
definitely didn't get it.

Speaker 5 (01:52:47):
Yeah, I'm not.

Speaker 2 (01:52:51):
From my show tonight. I'm not sure about that, because
seem as though people in Invericargo didn't get it. Well,
some didn't get it.

Speaker 16 (01:52:59):
Well, perhaps we're too far away from the coastline we'll
need it.

Speaker 2 (01:53:02):
But then there were people in pay here too, which
is a long way inland, got it. So yeah, I mean,
and I think that's a worry that people haven't got it,
because you think you want it to be consistent, don't you.

Speaker 28 (01:53:16):
Yeah, or not?

Speaker 16 (01:53:17):
So long ago they did a test and I got
the test.

Speaker 17 (01:53:19):
Yes, that was a couple of months ago.

Speaker 2 (01:53:22):
Oh so you probably don't know what we're talking about.

Speaker 18 (01:53:25):
No, not really.

Speaker 2 (01:53:26):
No, Well I could send it to you, but yeah
I could read it. No, I'm sleep and you haven't
got anything on your phone in the deep dark. Puts
to your phone, says no, alude, you haven't switched that off.

Speaker 16 (01:53:38):
No, that's all working. It was working a couple of months.

Speaker 2 (01:53:41):
He's Okay, if you got that, you would have got it, right.

Speaker 21 (01:53:44):
Yeah, yeah, so who would know?

Speaker 16 (01:53:48):
Okay, I think it's because I'm in then they didn't
want to send.

Speaker 2 (01:53:51):
It till you know, those inland people. They don't like
to miss out. I'll hear. I'll talk to more people
about it in it, but thank you. We'll rejus this
one up people. Good evening, Tony. This is Marcus. Welcome
a good Tony.

Speaker 31 (01:54:11):
I live in Hamilton and I didn't get any alert.

Speaker 2 (01:54:15):
Okay, you got a phone.

Speaker 31 (01:54:17):
Yeah I've got too.

Speaker 2 (01:54:20):
You should have got to, really, shouldn't you.

Speaker 31 (01:54:22):
Well, yeah, yeah, you're just talking about alerts. And I
think god, both of them should have squawped surely and
then and even if I wasn't there, because one of
them would have been in the office and maybe I
didn't hear the other one in my pocket or something.

Speaker 2 (01:54:33):
Who knows, you would have certainly heard it. It did
come through it. And my phone never rings loud. I
never I can never get I don't know why that is.
It never rings, so I never see to answer it.

Speaker 31 (01:54:44):
Yeah, I'm quite surprised because I've had plenty of them before,
you know, and so I'm just a bit perplexed about
why I haven't didn't get one. And if I did
miss it, it could be still sitting near on your screen,
you know, saying.

Speaker 2 (01:54:57):
You know, well, I hope someone gets on to those people.
We can find out more information Tony, So I see
what I can do about that. But thank you. I hello,
it's Marcus welcome.

Speaker 13 (01:55:09):
Yeah, yeah, thank you, thank you. You see something about
having a warrant and a failed because of your spare
tile or something.

Speaker 2 (01:55:16):
Yes, it wasn't anchored down properly.

Speaker 13 (01:55:19):
They don't even I've got a warrant recently. They didn't
even check the tire in my car.

Speaker 2 (01:55:24):
And looks when I think about it, but it probably
is dangerous because it could if you got it, could
jump up and hit your kid in the head or something.
I mean, I don't yeah, but it's what as.

Speaker 13 (01:55:33):
You tire in the back in the back of the car, Yeah,
it is, isn't it?

Speaker 14 (01:55:39):
In the boot?

Speaker 2 (01:55:40):
It was like one of those h fee Yeah arrist
h as Yeah, it comes up. Well, you know how
you've got a car now that like a like a
hs fee what's it called issue V issues?

Speaker 14 (01:55:56):
Ah?

Speaker 2 (01:55:56):
Well yea, And in the back of it you've got
the tire and a tire world that's screwed, and then
you've got like then you've got folding sort of boards
over that, and then you've got your like your kids
raincoats and stuff.

Speaker 13 (01:56:08):
See okay, and the seat on top sort of thing.

Speaker 2 (01:56:11):
Yeah, well it's the boot on top in the seats
in front of that, so it have to be a
pretty America's tire to knock a kid out.

Speaker 13 (01:56:15):
But it could do that, okay, I understand now.

Speaker 9 (01:56:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:56:19):
And and in.

Speaker 13 (01:56:22):
South Australia you don't have to ever warranty.

Speaker 2 (01:56:24):
No, it's I've also been been rejected because I haven't
had my head rests on.

Speaker 13 (01:56:31):
I got done for that.

Speaker 2 (01:56:33):
Yeah, I take the head rest off because the kids
like to see from the back seat, you know, it
obstructs their view.

Speaker 13 (01:56:40):
Oh, yes, that's true enough.

Speaker 2 (01:56:43):
I don't mind.

Speaker 5 (01:56:44):
Yeah, no, I don't.

Speaker 13 (01:56:46):
Yeah, I mean catch fast enough to get.

Speaker 2 (01:56:48):
What exactly anyway, that's me. And but thank you zaying,
good evening, America, good dame, thank you because he just.

Speaker 25 (01:56:57):
Took about those alerts. I'm just an Aukhan CBD and
just for this thing happened our if POS terminals got
their alert because I think it's run by a side data.

Speaker 2 (01:57:12):
Someone someone else, someone else. If so, where did it
come out?

Speaker 25 (01:57:18):
It's just on the screen, So it's a whole big
pat screen now, just and we didn't know because we
none of us got the alert that the if POS
terminals got their lit first, and we're just sitting there going, what,
here's some Russian thing, and we didn't really know what's
going on.

Speaker 14 (01:57:35):
I just thought that.

Speaker 2 (01:57:38):
Did the FOS machine make the noise? Also?

Speaker 25 (01:57:40):
Yeah, yeah it did, and it was just weird because
we hear heard it and we're like, where's it coming from?
No one's phones and then checked the two or three
if post terminals and about a good till three minutes
later or then our cur phone's got it. OK, as
long as the machine gets.

Speaker 5 (01:58:00):
That's weird at interesting.

Speaker 25 (01:58:03):
If we'll give you a call so it's a different one.

Speaker 2 (01:58:06):
Appreciate that same thing you somebody else to beat. Earliest,
I wasn't sure if it was true, but now we've
had verified by someone else. Good Thank you Lance. Marcus Hello, yeah, Marcus.

Speaker 6 (01:58:17):
Hey, I switched in the news last night.

Speaker 22 (01:58:19):
John Price is the big cahouna from TIL Defense said
there was only coastal, So I'm pretty sure that gon.

Speaker 21 (01:58:27):
Havil was going to be out on that one.

Speaker 2 (01:58:30):
Did they say the alert only went coastal?

Speaker 5 (01:58:33):
Yep, definitely.

Speaker 22 (01:58:33):
I actually actually even replayed in turn what was easy
it was just coastal, so he did.

Speaker 15 (01:58:38):
He definitely said just coastal coastal places.

Speaker 2 (01:58:42):
So okay, I appreciate and what pop into Tarrong.

Speaker 15 (01:58:45):
I have and have a look at the tsunami is
coming in at twelfth.

Speaker 2 (01:58:48):
I don't think we're supposed to lock, are we We're
not supposed to lock.

Speaker 22 (01:58:55):
Oh yeah, oh no, of course you do not know.

Speaker 2 (01:58:58):
You didn't get the alert though, did your lance? There
we go, Marcus, my Marie from christch My first and
only tsunami alert has come just through and I live
in the eastern suburbs. Marcus, I'm at the new Brighton
peer no alert. Marcus used to have a three to
or ram pree. Kids would take the back seats out

(01:59:18):
for transporting all sorts of DAYA. They had to put
the seats back in each time for a warrant. Not
getting an alert inland doesn't make sense. You could be
traveling and be anywhere near the coasts. Yeah, we're not
like Russia where your day's drives from the coast. Sort
it out. I just want to text the kit for

(01:59:43):
the invasion.

Speaker 1 (01:59:46):
For more from Marcus lash nights, listen live to news talks.
There'd be from eight pm weekdays, or follow the podcast
on iHeartRadio
