Episode Transcript

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

Speaker 2 (00:11):
Be grettings are welcome. Heit'll turve. I hope it's good
for you. I hope if your English it's okay, Tom
gone or on about that. But yeah, she's not coming home.
I hope, well you know, I mean a poshtu and
show much emotion either way when they want or win.
They lost, so it'll be the same for her, won't it. Anyway?
Hit Le twelve, hope it's got in your neck of
the woods. If it's not, I hope it gets better

(00:32):
by the time I go home at midnight Thursday, but
like a three for all Thursday, not as loose as
a Friday, but loose than a Wednesday. Yeah, so get
in touch if you feel like you want to partake
in the show. Just first and foremost, I've promised a
caller that I'll get in those stupid knives from New World,

(00:54):
and I want people to send the stamps. I call
them stickers, but I think you will call them stamps
to our po box in Auckland. Have we got any
hit Dan. None of arrived so far, But that's probably
more about using the post than you, but do let
me know if you're sending any This guy he missed
out on the Brasier. He's on I mean, I'm not
saying this disparaging, but he's on his own. So if

(01:14):
you're on your own, New Worlds out against you, because
who's going to buy enough stupid stuff on their own
to get those knives? And he's a million miles away.
So I said I'd get them the stickers. And there
seems to be a frenzy which I'm driving, by the way,
I s have when we went to Panic by the
petrol how a the cues tonight? What would you rather

(01:35):
panic buy? Diesel or eggs? Are they panic buying eggs? Yet?
I'll tell you what people are doing. They're going to
the supermarket and swapping the eggs from one cart into
another to get bigger eggs. Who'd people doing that? I
think that is theft by deception, Pure Box nine to one,
nine eight Victoria Street, West, Talk eleven forty two. It's

(01:57):
on the Facebook page Market slash Nights. He's anyone got
their knives yet, it'd be a big story. The first
person to get the knives. It'd be a worker. I think.
I think if you're a working and get people's stamps
and then go elsewhere. I reckon that's the hack. Get
in touch. Come on, if you've gotta send me your stickers,
let me know. I just want to feel that we're
on the we've started this whole campaign. Goodness me. As

(02:21):
far as the whole five hundred bucks for the sweep stake?
Are we down to Dan, Pam be Ricking, Pam Wreck, Spain,
pam Is Argentina. That'll be Sunday Monday. We'll find out
who's the one of the end. Then they play for
I might watch third and fourth could actually be good
of England wins. That could be the best game. Well,
actually the South American game will be best. But yes,

(02:42):
between the stickers and the football, it's all going on
for me. So yeah, if you if you could promise
me the stickers, could you please and cleach that to
me on here? I just feel I need to otherwise
I'll buy the guy's knives. But I just feel that
as a I thought there was an element of Dunkirk
spirit in this audience. The show that kid and the
kid that showed. So I want you people to help

(03:03):
this guy out. You don't want the stickers anyway, you
don't want the damn knives. But see how much is
a letter? I'll google how much is a letter? Letter?
Letter en z cost I've done letter inded cut. Are
you looking for nursery day call like wooden letter wall names? No,
I'm not looking like the cost to seeing the letter?

(03:23):
Thank you? Check GPT three dollars sixty. So that'll be
the best three dollars sixty you will spend because there'll
be no material gain for you, but you will have
that warm, fuzzy feeling that you've helped Mark get his knives.
I'll even refund you the three sixty, but there you go.
Please say I'm getting nine hundred dollars worth from Hoker ticker.

(03:45):
No one's texting me, no one. I feel kind of
I just want this to work, Marcus, I got two
knives two day delivery. I've got my knives two day delivery.
My husband's sis with them sapphire Wow, sapphire. So her
and her husband with the knives sapphire and steel. Why
would you get them so early? How much are you
spending if you at a restaurant, I don't care if

(04:06):
you've got the knives and the funny thing was I
put on Facebook, right, I put on Facebook and I
said it Facebook, could you send me as stickers? And
most people have just texted me saying can I have
any leftover? No one said, gee, I'm going to join
in what's wrong with the world? Look for left receipts
or kiosks that have the wood you like one left

(04:27):
and ab extra stamps? What does it even mean? I
fear for tonight show. It hasn't been a great start
about me and the stamps. But I'm going to go
one of this. So the guy's got his knives. It
could be a week, it could be two weeks. I
don't want them to miss out because I think there's
a frenzy. I'm not even going to click on the
story about the World Cup tattoo backfires. There's always somebody
that gets the trophy tattooed before it. Who even cares?

(04:47):
You know, goodness, why are we celebrating that I've got
a good mind to go and get a tattoo of
the New World's sticker. Actually that would be a bit
of tattoo, wouldn't it. They probably give me the knives
if I went and did. They actually probably there wouldn't
New world. How's the cost of living working out for
your people? Not good? Is it? Ninety one dollars for
a legal lamb?

Speaker 3 (05:07):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (05:07):
By the way, I've got sheep on the farm. There's
five two twins and one what's the single version of
a twin? Half a twin? What's a single lamb? Called
two twins and one? Got a word for that? Five twins,
two sets of twins and a half a twin? That
other word for that? Anyhope? Oh so ninety one dollars

(05:28):
for a leg of lamb. But the new thing is
people are buying a mixture of mince and pork. So
at the supermarkets now you can find a mixture of
mince and pork. So it's pork mints because pork is
cheap now. And they are calling that as a portmanteau

(05:48):
pork and mince. They're calling it. They're calling it pork.
But it should be called burke, the be and the
e from beef in the air and the cave from port.
It should be called burke or poeff. Anyway, if you
tried that, how are you extending your mints? How are
you getting by? You're checking it in the beans and
get in touch. Oh, Jonathan and Smarcus. Good evening, how
we do this?

Speaker 4 (06:09):
Even?

Speaker 2 (06:09):
Good? Thank you Jonathan. How are you doing?

Speaker 5 (06:12):
Oh a pretty good long day on a road work trip.
But you know what it's like, I'm sure I just
wanted to clarify clarify my kicks.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
That's kind of scripta, okay, fair enough.

Speaker 5 (06:23):
Ye, no, it's a little bit better that I probably
bring in drivers upost the sticks and drive.

Speaker 6 (06:27):
As much as all the costsle.

Speaker 7 (06:28):
Made me listening.

Speaker 8 (06:28):
But yeah, don't worry, worry about that.

Speaker 9 (06:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (06:32):
Anyway, if you look at the whole served kiosks when
you're card doing the chick out, some people will leave
the would you like a receipt left and you can
just casually press the yes and present it to the
Kiosk person and say I'd like my stems please.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
Oh so if you go to self check out and
it says would you like a receipt yes, and then
you take that up and get the stamps, what a
great heck, Yeah.

Speaker 5 (06:56):
That is a little bit. You can do it a
pack and save to get the fuel about to a vowl.

Speaker 6 (06:59):
Although I don't know how.

Speaker 5 (07:00):
Many people have tetris skills to be able to stack
up and get the good discounts.

Speaker 2 (07:04):
And so just are you saying that the pack and
save shop is a less adept at tapping.

Speaker 5 (07:11):
Not having the tetris required because usually their little self
serve things are a little bit smaller, so you can't.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
So yes, have around, have around New World, and when
someone walks away, you get their receipt and you redeem
their stickers. Yeah, love it, Absolutely love it, Jonathan. I'm
glad you're rung and yees. It's been a long long
time since I've done a full day's work. The last
time I have worked more than four hours a day
be ninety five. I hear the pain when I shop

(07:40):
at New World. You can have my stickers happy to
just don't haven't been there yet this time. I think
you would have them sent to a different address, No
same address, Marcus diesel recur a Hamilton White tumul two
thirteen a liter, Marcus. Cost of living is so dear. At
the moment, I'm thinking of killing my pet sheep Larry

(08:02):
for meat. That had a good question from Ben, how
did Sapi get her knives so fast? Well, I heard
from someone. I'm not going to say which town she
was in but she works at the supermarket and she
just asked the pip they want them, Then she pockets
them herself, and then she drives out of town to
another new world to redeem her knives because they're all

(08:25):
owner operator and you can't get them from your own shop.
And when I saw that, I thought that's not right.
So maybe sapphire, But how did you get a knife
on the first week? Seems wrong, doesn't it? So how
are you extending your pork? Sorry, how are you extending

(08:45):
your mint? Mixing it with pork? Have you brought this
bork or burke a beef pork combination? That's the question
for you tonight, or has anyone else giving up on mince?
And what are you using instead? Are using an extender?
And how's that working out for you? And should it
be called bork or burke? If it's beef pork? What

(09:09):
is the name of pork? Yeah, I'm just trying to
work that one out. Get in touch to keep those
texts coming. So I'm looking for a lively show tonight.
Oh eight one hundred and eighty ten eighty nine two
text You've got to be a part of it? Oh yeah,
and a pear of other news will be breaking out
in the next three and a half hours. I promise
you that. Ah, that's exactly what I did, Marcus, exactly.

(09:32):
I won't say your name and Cassy're onto you. Marcus
off subject Harry charpan singer songwriter that died this day
in a car accident on the Long Island Expressway. He
was thirty eight. Now maybe something will explain who he is,
because I'm not familiar with his back Cannon Harry Sharphan,
Have I got that right? Chap I n died in
nineteen eighty one, folk writer and folks singer and philanthropist

(09:56):
and a hunger activist. I seem like a good thought. Oh,
cats in the cradle, I know that well, Cats in
the crew didn't know that there's a tragedy there getting
touched onto it. The eighteen past eight he til twelve.
The stickers, mainly I want the stickers. Someone's using lentils
to extend their meat. The lentils time has come. It's

(10:16):
for the pulse. Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty nine. Texte.
I think I shoul want to feel Fredic. Oh, I've
got someone set me in. He has got a missing dog.
My friend's beloved dog is missing and it's free out
of character. I was hoping you good share with your
listeners tonight and post this on your Facebook page. Well,
it just looks so terrible the fly, because it looks

(10:38):
like it's it just looks so chet gpt anyway that
sounds bad, doesn't because this person at the Hunderway bitch
Mada Mordua Wyatt Roads. So if you're onto that, get
in touch. So that seems to be someone's really agitated
about that. We really want to bring Izzy home. Goodness

(11:01):
is a fairy? Now that's a good idea about the
chaosk isn't it this Broncos tonight? So I can promise
you that that'll be after ten o'clock tonight. I see
that the old David Seamol's story got big today with
them banning the under sixteens for cell phones, but didn't
go so well for us last night. I'm not quite
sure what that's about. And now the latest debate on

(11:22):
the stuffs other school holidays too long? Well what else
are you going to do?

Speaker 3 (11:26):
Well?

Speaker 2 (11:26):
I think they had two weeks long than we had
when we were at school. Oh well, the mid year
ones were challenged, but there's only one more day to go.
Our kids are involved with You know what our kids
were doing today? They were doing they were involved with something. Now,
this would be a good thing. They were I don't
even know how to explain this. They were dismantling computers

(11:49):
to generate e waste and then rebuilding computers. And they
got fish and chips for lunch, and they came home
with a computer, which I thought, well, the cheapest creepers.
And then I bored them by telling them that I
don't even know why I did. I couldn't just let
them have their moment. I decided to tell them about

(12:11):
when we first did computer programming involved punch cards, that
there were no keyboards. We had to make marks and
cards and then suit that into the machine. Well, I've
never seen two children less interested in anything. It was
beyond their will, their realms of comprehension. Anyway, You're going
to pick your time to have conversations with children, don't you,

(12:31):
Because Goodness graces me, computing has changed. Punch cards. Yep,
that was a thing. You'd make holes in cards. They
would have gone out in the early eighties, I think,
But yep, and I think each card was just one letter.
That's some of them up there might have remembered punch cards,
very basic programming. I was trying to make out that

(12:52):
I'd be good for it, support if they need to help.
But yeah, clearly looking for someone better than they had
experience with punch cards. Anyway, that's them. Now get in
touch of you on to talk and promise me your
send me your vouchers. Marcus, I've got some bone handled
knives to donate, but the Terrell scortch will that be okay?

(13:13):
I'm not after the knives after you've been hot kniving.
I'm after actually the vouchers beef and pork combined peef. Anyway, now, Rosemary,
it's Marcus.

Speaker 10 (13:24):
Good evening, Good evening, Marcus. I don't need any more knives,
thank you.

Speaker 2 (13:32):
And this is quite a complaintion ex Rosey. I'm not
offering you any more knives, which is good. So you've
rung the right show.

Speaker 10 (13:40):
No thank you. I think we know well. At the moment,
Wool was doing little plastic things.

Speaker 2 (13:47):
Terrible, aren't they just terrible?

Speaker 10 (13:49):
Shocking? It's just crap, and New World are doing the knives.
But I don't need any more knives. But what I
was ringing about. It's not anything to do with well,
you're probably wanting to know, But I just wondered why

(14:11):
I'm looking at buy a new car. I have a
many countrymen.

Speaker 2 (14:15):
Right, a great looking car.

Speaker 10 (14:18):
Oh, it's it's a super deepid little car. I bought
one of the first ones that ever came out, and
then I had a Beetle, and then I had a BMW,
and then I had this neck. But every time I
go to look at cars, now the.

Speaker 11 (14:34):
Back, the back.

Speaker 10 (14:37):
Maybe somebody's got an answer for this. They don't. You can't.
They don't have big back windscreens, if you know what
I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (14:47):
They don't do that. They all sort of slope at
the back. And it's got a small, narrow, little windscreen.

Speaker 10 (14:52):
Exactly, thank you. And I just look and I think
I took my car and to BMW the other day
to get service to it the minie the day, and
everything gets smaller, smaller, as I thought, why is this happening?
Why don't we have When I had the Beetle, it

(15:13):
was a big it was not like a bubble. Do
you know why this happens?

Speaker 2 (15:18):
Well, I think I'm prepared to guess an answer, Rosemary,
And I'm often wrong. I've been wrong before. I would
think right now that the cars are so advanced with
reversing cameras that you don't need that rearview window because
you find out all that stuff looking backwards on your
reversing camera. Has your countrymen got a reversing camera.

Speaker 10 (15:41):
No, it's a little bit older than that, so.

Speaker 2 (15:43):
I think I think it would have, wouldn't it?

Speaker 8 (15:45):
What use it?

Speaker 10 (15:47):
Well, the other day when I took it in the car,
I said, why are the life stile and the guy said, oh,
that's automatic when you go in. I've never known ten
years old, I don't even know. The guy said yeah,
when you go into a supermarket or wherever. I thought,

(16:08):
oh gosh, i've learnt something new.

Speaker 2 (16:10):
I have too, I.

Speaker 10 (16:11):
Didn't it had to be on automatic.

Speaker 2 (16:14):
But I think I think a twenty sixteen countrymen will
have a reversing camera.

Speaker 10 (16:21):
Well, yeah, yeah, does it has beep beepen?

Speaker 2 (16:25):
But can you see? Can you say, is there a
camera that you can see where you're reversing to?

Speaker 10 (16:29):
No, No, it's I think it was before that sort
of happened, if you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (16:34):
But you're right. The rear windscreens have become very very
narrow everything.

Speaker 10 (16:40):
I was looking at buying a little baby range Rover,
and I thought, oh, oh god no. And then I
looked at the BMW's and when I took my car
and for a service they gave me themw I couldn't
hardly see out the window of this BMW was just miniscule.

Speaker 2 (17:01):
No, I think you need I think you got.

Speaker 12 (17:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (17:02):
Anyway, I've got to run Moseby. Thank you for that
twenty seven past day. Keep your call coming through, get
the texts and to ticks and the good ones can
promise you that also. To the bird flu is pretty
much in the discussion today. I'm hearing the farmers talk
on the radio. They're saying, if the farmers have if
there is bird flu in the chicken house, the farmer

(17:23):
will have to depopulate that farm, so you no compensation,
that's what they'll need to do. So yeah, and it
doesn't look good for the sea birds at all. Watch
the space. But yeah, this is going to be a
big store. It's going to continue to be a big story.
I'm not quite sure where the talkback angle of that is.
I imagine if poultry stocks do start getting effected. Then
the price of butter up, So the price of eggs

(17:45):
and chicken could well go up. I don't think it's
going to go up, but I don't think people are
going to start because you don't really want to buy,
You don't really want to you don't really want to
stockpile eggs. Can you freeze them? Probably you can't, So
i'll mention that too, yes, in case someone wants to
talk about that. And I'm not looking for people to
donate live knives either. We're looking for the stickers for

(18:07):
the knives for a New World. But getting touchy on
tour at this eight hundred and eighty ten or anything
at all tonight too, I'm looking for information just because
I'm interested about how State Hiway wan is south of
Caakoda since they've banged, or since they've fixed the whole
road thereafter the storms. You've got some information about that.
Get in touch. Would like to hear about that too,

(18:28):
So oh, eight hundred and eighty ten, eighty nine nine,
The lines there are free. But Maine, it's about if
you have given this combined beef and mints ago, and
if that's going to be the solution with a more
expensive mints marks. It should be called balk for sixty
to forty beef based or peef for an equivalent pork

(18:50):
based blend olive from Gisbon. We have a fifty five
dollars meat three kg's and four kg's vegebox from a
charitable trust apply called Kitty to combat the cost of
living crisis. Marcus, I just go without the meat altogether,
gave it up years ago and don't miss it much cheaper.

(19:12):
Could someone answer a question for me shopping around now
for petrol? Is the gas inferior at places like Peck
and Save as against BP? Or is just is just
an old wives tale? Is all petrol the same quality?
I've got no ability to answer that. Could someone tell
me if all petrols the same? Or are some petrol's

(19:37):
better quality if you go from brand to brand, or
does it all come from the same truck if you
feel you can answer that to want to try to
answer that, let me know. Someone said one acre is
so special. We love paying more cheapest diesels two dollars
thirty seven fred and runging or a texted me two
dollars too there with a Thursday special discount of NPD
so petrel is all petrol equal or is some better?

(20:00):
I think it's probably a bit of truth of this,
but I've got no idea. I just know our audience
loves to talk about petrol and guests by guess by
its about is it? Giess B gets it? Guest B
they're they're there, They're getting touch guest by guests by
away one hundred and eighty today, twenty six away from
nine who zaying it's Marcus, Good evening, hyacin Hiasin, It's

(20:34):
Marcus welcome. Hi.

Speaker 13 (20:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 14 (20:36):
The pictures of different qualities, so in the South Pacific,
different to the Persian in the Middle East, and.

Speaker 2 (20:46):
So would the would peck and save? You have the
different guests from where where are you saying?

Speaker 15 (20:53):
Common?

Speaker 3 (20:53):
Common?

Speaker 2 (20:55):
But are you in your car?

Speaker 3 (20:57):
No?

Speaker 2 (20:58):
Is this picture that peck and save the same as
the stuff at BP are Yeah, brilliant markets markets, good evening,
go Mark?

Speaker 8 (21:10):
Yeah, Hey, how are you going good? Okay?

Speaker 16 (21:14):
Yeah, okay, So yeah, I definitely think the picture has
definitely been refined, you know, the gray since since the
price of picture has come down, the quality of picture
has come down, and I've noticed that it's not just
you know, it's several stations.

Speaker 8 (21:28):
Actually, there's probably a couple in particular.

Speaker 4 (21:31):
That I know.

Speaker 16 (21:31):
I don't get to go to every single station, but yeah,
definitely been refined. You don't get as much mileage, you know.
So yeah really, I mean.

Speaker 2 (21:43):
Yeah, can you can you tell the pictrels worse by
how your car is driving?

Speaker 17 (21:48):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (21:48):
So basically you know how far am I driving?

Speaker 9 (21:51):
Right?

Speaker 8 (21:52):
So if I put fifty dollars of gas in?

Speaker 9 (21:54):
Right?

Speaker 16 (21:54):
So I say I was putting fifty dollars of gas
in when it was When was the petrol high like
Fords food three dollars.

Speaker 8 (22:01):
Fifty or something like that? Right, you know it's at
its peak? Right, yeah? Last what's months or so?

Speaker 3 (22:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 16 (22:07):
So I mean that was fine. Right, Since the prices
have come down, I'm getting less mileage.

Speaker 2 (22:14):
So but would that just depend on where you're driving,
Mark and how you're driving, Like if you're going on
if you're going around town or going out the back?

Speaker 8 (22:21):
What does out the back mean?

Speaker 2 (22:23):
Well, at the back of your town, like on the
country roads.

Speaker 16 (22:27):
I don't really look, I do drive on country roads, Yeah,
I don't think it's I mean for me like typically,
so yeah, so I drive on rural roads, I drive
in city.

Speaker 8 (22:39):
Yeah, I mean, I just not like, I.

Speaker 16 (22:42):
Look, I haven't noticed it significantly, so it's not it's
not it's not a regular occurrence, right, But since the
petrol prices have come down, I have noticed an inconsistency, right,
So so the mileage you get, right is much less.
So I'm noticing I have to fill up really more.

Speaker 8 (23:03):
Well, yeah, so why would if I can't give you
the math on, I can't tell you.

Speaker 2 (23:07):
You know that, But you sound like that. Do you
sound like a pretty astute sort of person, like you're
noticing sort of a guy a or noticing this, noticing that.

Speaker 8 (23:15):
Well, okay, so I did notice it.

Speaker 16 (23:17):
I noticed that, you know, immediately as the price, you know,
the price is shot down quite significantly.

Speaker 8 (23:24):
Fifty.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
Yeah, they're watering it around.

Speaker 8 (23:26):
Two dollars fifty or something. What were they like three
dollars or no, sorry they are three? Sorry there? What
were what were the prices?

Speaker 16 (23:33):
There were three dollars fifty and then they jumped down
to two two seventy eight I think, or around three dollars, right,
and they've stuffed. So I noticed when they were sitting
quite high, you know, they were sitting quite high right
about three point fifty and then they dropped I guess
quite significantly, like not a dollar, but maybe fifty cents
or something. Right, And I noticed, well I noticed, right,

(23:55):
I noticed, you know, okay that you you know you're
putting you know, you're putting the same amount of fuel
in right for less, but from really getting the same
kind of mind.

Speaker 8 (24:07):
I mean, do you think that Jay I wasn't given
the things?

Speaker 16 (24:09):
Mark?

Speaker 2 (24:10):
Do you think the psychology might be for you that
you pay more for it than you think it's better
value and you think you're going further?

Speaker 15 (24:17):
Can you?

Speaker 8 (24:18):
Can you say that again? So I just need to
think about that. So I need to think what you're saying.
So can you say that again?

Speaker 2 (24:23):
Well, there might be a psychological thing that you subconsciously
because you're paying more, you think it's better value for money,
and you're going further with it.

Speaker 8 (24:32):
So I'm sorry, Can you can you just say it
one more time? Sorry? Sorry?

Speaker 2 (24:36):
No, I wonder at the third time. I appreciate you
coming through Mark, evening, Phil, This is Marcus, Welcome, How
are you good? Pel?

Speaker 18 (24:45):
Thank you.

Speaker 16 (24:46):
I'm just interested in Mark's call before I have to
drive to work. I've worked in the industry fuelance. You've
got fifteen years into different stance. I'm just going to
call that out. It's a highly regulated industry. You can't
get away with watering down the fuel.

Speaker 3 (25:03):
It just doesn't.

Speaker 16 (25:04):
It's very very high regulated. You just wouldn't get away
with that. It just doesn't happen. I just find that
hard to believe anyone would think that that's even possible.
And you know, some of them don't put additives in,
like the brands that have the young manned service stations,
but it runs just as well.

Speaker 2 (25:25):
Oh what hang on? Why do they don't have editives?

Speaker 16 (25:28):
Well, because the oil companies keep them for their own brands.
So I work for some of the second tier brands
selling that and they just don't put that in the
juice at the terminals. It's it's made to clean engines
and give them a bit of a point of difference
over the competitors. Let the old s car go back
in the day.

Speaker 2 (25:49):
But they never advertize the additives fill do they not?

Speaker 16 (25:53):
Oh they do a little bit, not as much anymore,
but they only give it to their branded stations. They
don't give it to their you know, the mpds, The goals,
the challenges, all those ones. So even those editives don't
really make a big difference clean engine. But that's about
the only difference between the big big brands and the

(26:14):
rest in this in the country.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
They're first. I didn't know those editives. I can't work
out what the other man ones. They wouldn't put a
editives in as well. Roberts Marcus, Welcome and good evening, Marcus.

Speaker 19 (26:27):
Just in quickly.

Speaker 15 (26:29):
I quite often park opposite to fuel tanks and there's
all different fuel company crups coming, you know, and they
all fill up. Every different field company fills up from
these tanks. So I can't see how there can be
any difference now my experience as far as editives go.
I mean, I got a diesel when I was told
by a diesel fiver quite some years ago. But at

(26:52):
that time Goal was the only one that had used editors,
and they have a preference to be using that fuel themselves.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
I've never so where do they have where do they
Where do they add the editives.

Speaker 15 (27:04):
Into the fuel.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
But we're at when it goes into the big tanker.

Speaker 15 (27:10):
Yeah, they'll have a they'll have a ship of tank
at the terminal.

Speaker 2 (27:15):
Okay, all more into that, rob thank you, sixteen to nine. Steve,
it's Marcus good evening.

Speaker 12 (27:21):
Yeah, I hire you, Marcus. I'm just the same as
what I was saying. Alpha bret in the industry as well,
delivering fuel places like Pack and Sade new or they
would be without the editors unless it's changed. If you
go back quite a few years ago, maybe you'll remember

(27:42):
Shell had a product called ninety five V Power then
that was going. It had to because they put a
guarantee out that would go a little bit further than BP.
And if we had to make sure the editors rent in,
if we had to go and get fuel from a
different terminal, we had to dose it up each compartment.

Speaker 2 (28:04):
What are the editives of that chemical thing?

Speaker 12 (28:08):
Yeah, so yeah, not really that much goes in. Maybe
if you've put say ten thousand leaders in a cap compartment,
you might be only putting I don't know a couple
of leaders of that. I'm not sure actually now it
was so long ago. But with the ninety five specifically,
that had to be wherever we rent. If I advertised

(28:30):
ninety five for Shell with the v poal, we had
to have it in there just in case somebody'd ever
decided to do an audit, and because Shell they turned
around and said their ninety five v POW would go
further than VP or celtechs or whatever.

Speaker 2 (28:51):
So there is some truth that then that the peck
and say fuel might be a bit shank here and
not having the additives.

Speaker 12 (28:59):
I wouldn't say it's shank here. It's got to be
rted at ninety one or ninety five. Yeah, yeah, it
just won't have probably the cleaning editors and stuff like that. Editor,
I'm not even sure if you get like performance editors anymore,
like the vp O. I haven't really heard of anybody
guaranteeing they're ninety five or or whatever role tak a

(29:21):
caf ourther than the opposition's products.

Speaker 2 (29:24):
But we'll find out. See we'll find if people actually
do shop around and they new find some petrol better.
It's not I've got no idea, really, but I'm curious,
feel curious. Fourt in to nine Marcus, no expert all
but my local packing Steve has its fuelter pied by
Z is a little supplied by Z logo on the
bottom of the docket. This could be the Z fuel

(29:44):
without the editors. Who knows, rees Marcus, you said you
did't have a good feeling about tonight's show, and how
right you were. Thanks for cutting the calls short when
they're talking complete nonsense. Marcus have been reading the rules
and they state that the knivestickers must be collected on
one official New Well collector's card and not multiple cards.

(30:05):
I'm guessing that means we do not stick the stickers
to a card before we send for what a great text,
d and do we know about this? There they are,
but you can't stick them to the box. No, don't
stick them to the box. Flip, don't do that. We
have to get in have sacram in water like the
step collections. I'm guessing means we do not stick the
stickers to a card before we send to your call,
and can apply to a separate card for each life

(30:26):
as they wish. That's right in the past. You will
never mind if you hand it in modible cards as
long as they're sufficient stickers. That's a great thing. A
great question, Kate, No bad questions in the life and
goal have their own terminate amount. So NYPD will now
to editives have blended in BP and mobile have aditives

(30:50):
too for engine cleaning. Is mobile still a thing? Marcus
I'd like to say a joke about petrol, but it's
a bit crude. Thank you. Last Christmas filled the car
with d's or got nineerd ky's. It's been get less
and less today I willed the car only got seven

(31:11):
forty k's. Can anyone explain why?

Speaker 10 (31:13):
So?

Speaker 2 (31:13):
Why would a car last year get nine hundred and
now get seven forty Would it be tire pressure? Would
it be the roof wreck? How could it drop fifteen percent?
Thirteen ants on the bag of an envelope? Or call
evening Keith, it's Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 20 (31:34):
Oh hi Marcus, just responding to your question about the
fifteen percent reduction in mileage. The fuel, tire pressure is
quite important, the roof rack extremely important. Unwanted items in
the boot they're adding to the weight of the vehicle.
So rule with you can have your consumption, sorry, double

(31:57):
your consumption just by increasing the weight. And then the
other one is just simply accelerating too much. And so
I drive a car with Kruse can troll and as
soon as I get over thirty k I can push
for a zoom and the car takes for what feels
like forever to get up to speed. But it's doing
it in the most economical way, and so basically just

(32:19):
little tips like that will improve the mileage. And then
the other thing too is servicing. If the air filter
is dirty or the fuel filter hasn't been replaced, it's
unlikely that you'll get engine wear over one year to
such a degree. But as the engine wears, the combustion
reduces can and you know, different things take place, but

(32:42):
there's some basic ones there.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
You got any idea how much extra whit you're going
to have to double up your fuel consumption? Would it
be one hundred keys yep?

Speaker 20 (32:50):
One person yepe, hundred kilos? So if you've got a
body and bosed of it, probably pay to get rid of.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
That good one. Keith John Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 21 (33:01):
You get mate.

Speaker 2 (33:02):
What's happening?

Speaker 9 (33:03):
I was just told me about fuel and the fuel,
about the chet fuels and the expensive fuels and the
difference between them chemically and how they're run any vehicles.

Speaker 7 (33:15):
It's actually quite.

Speaker 2 (33:16):
Technical, you know, Yeah, tell me what are you involved
in that?

Speaker 9 (33:20):
Well, I'm just a nerd, but I've run a range
of different fuels in my vehicles, in my diesel, in
my in my Mustang, and it's noticeable the difference between

(33:43):
the different brands you can get ninety eight or diesel
from different companies, and in my experience, because I mean
I'd like to think a little more in turn about this,
but there is a difference about fuels, you know, cheat fuels.
They are they seem the speaker is the same on paper,

(34:04):
but they just run as well in your vehicle. And
that's that's It's just about a practical view on this
to put try these different fuels and and see how
your vehicle runs, look at your performance, and it does
make a difference. There is a difference.

Speaker 22 (34:22):
I'm a I know.

Speaker 9 (34:24):
That BP fuel, for example, runs much better than caltext
fuel diesel wise in my diesel vehicle, when I'm running
ninety eight in my high performance car, it makes a
whole difference.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
And any any ninety eight or ninety eight from a
particular canopy, particular brand of petrol.

Speaker 9 (34:45):
Yeah yeah, well yeah yeah, the brand, the brand is different.
Those additives do make a difference.

Speaker 2 (34:50):
Which ninety eight is best BP? Okay, what if you
get say BP.

Speaker 9 (34:57):
In my opinion and and diesel BP, I've.

Speaker 23 (35:01):
Just become.

Speaker 2 (35:04):
Just cut out their GiB Thanks for that. Getting touch year,
We go people hitdle twelve oh, wait eight ten eighty
nine to nine to text, get in touch. It's all
about the fuel. By the way of you seeing any
is the panic out there panicing someone's outdoor outside cold
at temperature using the air con more to dimmest windows.

(35:28):
Marcus I drove fuel tanks for ten years. The fuel
that comes off the ships from Singapore is mostly the same.
Then for the terminals, like Worry, the editive is added
as the tanker trucks are loaded. Was loading one night
when the editive ran out, I had to wait for
an hour for a terminal tech to refall the editive
tank before the pub would restart. Each major fuel company
has their own type of additive. Had no idea about this.

(35:57):
That's what we're on about fuel and additives. The driving
question has morphed into cruise control and is it more economical?
Marcus John is wrong about cruise control. If you go
up a hillt will bowl and if to accelerate hard
to gain this speed back, then when you reach the
crest of the hill it will over speed, causing many
many modern vehicles to break. Definitely not more economical than

(36:21):
a competent driver. So the is your fuel efficiency increased
with cruise control? Ken Reckans? The only difference between the
only difference is BP has the wild bean Yep, Marcus.
I've been adding a certain fuel conditioner to my petrol,
diesel and outboard engines for years. The engines run clean

(36:42):
and can get a minimum of thirty percent more mileage
by using it. My sons and daughters would not be
without it. It can be purchased and select call stores. Pedro,
Who uses additives? What are they even called these days?
Thirty percent? Surely not eight past nine? And what fuels
are the best fuels to buy? You get the cheap
stuff at Peckin's Day, But is it any good? These

(37:03):
are the questions for you tonight. And would you buy
a pork minx a pork mince combination called bork or Brooke?
These are discussion so far. We never told this sort
of stuff about additives. Except that guy with a double
barrel name. He's gone quiet, hasn't he? Remember that guy
with a motoring guy? He was always on the radio,

(37:24):
always on the radio always. I just thought of him
then sort of an a pith helmet type guy and
lamb chops. Anyway, he's gone well gone. For my memory,
I can't remember his name. Jump in. Let's hear from
your nine nine nine O nine Marcus till twelve. There's
something different you got. If there's a frenzy curing people

(37:47):
for eggs, let me know about that. If there is
a frenzy for people curing for petrol, let me know
about that. Also. I like to keep people up to date.
Come on, and I want your stickers for knives, the
smeg knives. But don't stick them on the book that
just put them in the envelope. The mail doesn't get wet.
But even know, if you have a letter box, we

(38:07):
might send someone to the post office. I don't know
how it works. Feels so arcane breaking news when that happens,
of course tonight also, but we are talking about fuel
and additives and as some fuel better than other fuel.
I thought fuel was fuel. But I'm wrong? How wrong?
Could you be? Very wrong? Ranas are reporting explosions in

(38:28):
several cities, including the Capitol, and the US military says
it's also hidden disabled tanker and the Strait of Womus. Yep,
that's happening. I shall keep you updated. It feels like
groundhog Day with that same every day for the last
five days. Bread crude seems to be stabilized though, But

(38:49):
how's it the pump and how are your fuel extenders?
Have we ever been less excited about the Commonwealth Games?
I don't think so. That's just me speaking aloud. You
don't have to talk about that, but I'll be curious.
But yes, it's mainly on this. It's mainly on the
fuel and additives, and that we which fuel goes further?
And John's wrong about cruise Is cruise control more fuel

(39:12):
efficient or not? I guess it was a good excuse
to give your leg of it of arrest, all that
ankle exercise with the ankle pivot train on cruise control,
Just rest up that leg. Where is fuel? Cruise control?
It feels like a hack. It always feels like wow,
just doing nothing until you get to a corner, which

(39:33):
should it should slow down for but you don't. Yeah,
I can't really be trusted with the cruise control for me,
it becomes a challenge. Now that is not the answer.
He's that mane of us. Marcus, good evening. Come on,
what have we got? Second? Now? Same as the first?
Better Marcus? With true cruise control, the money saved and
speeding fines way out shines the extra fuel it may use. Yes,

(39:56):
so it's not an economical thing, but it's only what
it's wallet economical because you're cheaper, we're not getting the fines.
So is that also tonight to eleven past nine and
your knives and your stickers. By the way, twelve hundred
and fifty houses going north of Audiwa. How would you
get to town? Mind you where is town? You might

(40:17):
be working in fang Are they a lot of houses? Goodness? Anyway,
get in touch if you want to talk away E
one hundred and eighty ten eighty and nine to nine
to detext. But let's be hearing from if you want
to talk about ay these things. The English football this morning,
I think even the coaches said he got it wrong

(40:39):
up one nil and played defensively. Well that's never gonna work,
not against the rg's only from then on that I
had fifteen percent possession. What a disaster. So that's the
plan for tonight. Any other random questions you've got im
in kind of a random question mode. So yep, yep, yep, yep.

(41:02):
We are off are in Southland on them from midnight tonight.
They are fixing the aerieal so you want to go
to FM or go to sleep. So eighty four six
eight six four a were with that trend them in

(41:22):
a be you reckon it's up, the hawks is up?

Speaker 8 (41:25):
The is it up?

Speaker 2 (41:26):
The Kennington I've never understood that. David Tamacus, good evening
into you.

Speaker 24 (41:32):
Now.

Speaker 17 (41:33):
Cruise control, in my opinion, not in New Zealand. It's
not a place where you know, you want that.

Speaker 2 (41:38):
The Aussies you want that the outlet. Okay, that's weird
wan in.

Speaker 17 (41:41):
The if you're driving from Perth to Cow or in
the outback exactly, you can send it on one hundred
and ten, no worries. But hey, but the thing is
about cruise control. Also if you if you're driving yourself,
you know in New Zealand especially you can anticipate and
adjust your speed accordingly. I don't think cruise control, no,

(42:02):
not from New Zealand. Now the knife business, the knife
and blocks it that I'm looking at a knife and
blocks it with a steel and five other knives. It
was a tem temu Marcus. Yes, and there's about twenty
six dollars for five knives and a blocks it. It's
it's a flesh sea through one. It's a plastic transparent night.

Speaker 2 (42:27):
Are the knives sea through?

Speaker 17 (42:28):
No, the knives aren't seafood Marcus. No, No, the knife
blocks it as seathrough. And so I've just checked and Edenberg.

Speaker 2 (42:38):
Now they are knock it's a good brand Edinburgh.

Speaker 17 (42:42):
They're a knockoff Marcus. Of course it's from Team Move.
But I'll tell you what.

Speaker 8 (42:46):
There's nothing wrong with the knives. And well they keep sharp.

Speaker 17 (42:49):
And I will point out that do you remember the
old school knife sharpener that you run the knives through
and it's like a block and it sharpens. It's got
the edges on. In other words, even I can sharpen
a knife because I've never been any good at shaw.

Speaker 2 (43:05):
It's like a stay sharp knif if it was cool,
everyone had one, everyone had One's fantastic.

Speaker 17 (43:10):
They are and I'll remember me you my old grandmother,
Now she used to run our knives through it. Just
your shopping anything. Well, this one I've got from TM
Marcus at three stages. It's the old steel both stealing
the v tight that you run your knife through. And
then it's got two sort of whetstones on it. I'm
not whetstones, but they're the same sort of thing.

Speaker 2 (43:31):
Hang on, hang on, it's an earthquake. Oh goodness, yeah,
you and I haven't yet, No, an under I haven't
felt one before. It was quite a.

Speaker 17 (43:41):
Big shock, I can it's been said.

Speaker 2 (43:45):
It's still shaking. Yeah, so it's quite a big after
shock after shock after what well what I'm still feeling
after shocks now. It's quite a big quake.

Speaker 17 (43:57):
Oh goodness to me, Marcus, Yeah, what a big one.
My thoughts going out to you.

Speaker 25 (44:02):
I know who it is.

Speaker 2 (44:03):
I will survive. Were's the cash? Well, where's the cash?
The money machine?

Speaker 18 (44:12):
Here?

Speaker 2 (44:13):
Was quite a big quake. Anyway.

Speaker 17 (44:16):
Well, I'll be listening to what it was and my
thoughts going out to use down the air as long.

Speaker 2 (44:20):
As I just text Vanessa see if she felt it. Yes,
you didn't feel it, did you?

Speaker 4 (44:28):
No?

Speaker 17 (44:28):
Nothing here, No, I'm sitting in the living room and
nothing at all. No, but I'm pleased I made the
earth and see the Marcus.

Speaker 2 (44:40):
Thanks Dave. If you felt the other Dave, Marcus, where
are you?

Speaker 9 (44:45):
I'm cargole.

Speaker 2 (44:46):
It was it was strong, wasn't it.

Speaker 21 (44:48):
Well.

Speaker 26 (44:49):
I've got a pendulum clock just over on the wall there,
and then the weights are still banging and the light
it only happened about thirty seconds ago for me anyway,
and the lights of waying. But my pendulum weights on
the clock is still moving here. It was a sudden jolt.

Speaker 2 (45:08):
Yeah, okay, we'll find more about that live quake coverage, Kirie.
It's Marcus. Good evening. Oh Vanessa, Hi Vanessa, I said
to the Vanessa, did you feel that quake? Yes, the
whole house shock. I think there were two. That's from Bluff.
Where are you, Carrie.

Speaker 11 (45:22):
It's in Moscule Dunedin.

Speaker 2 (45:24):
So it's a strong quake. It's a six point three
forty k southwest of Milford.

Speaker 25 (45:29):
Sound.

Speaker 11 (45:29):
Oh see that that's really it was really shaking.

Speaker 24 (45:32):
I'm in bed reading my book and I was shaking.

Speaker 10 (45:34):
Back on the boards.

Speaker 2 (45:35):
So would you say, you said moscule a.

Speaker 11 (45:38):
Yes, wow, that right of the christ Church quake. That's
why I wing up, I thought, Oh my goodness.

Speaker 2 (45:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (45:45):
Anyway, thank you very much, Marcus.

Speaker 27 (45:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (45:48):
I'll just try to work out whether I stay on
deck or just tap out?

Speaker 3 (45:51):
What do I do?

Speaker 2 (45:52):
Dave?

Speaker 3 (45:52):
What do I do?

Speaker 24 (45:53):
Dan?

Speaker 2 (45:53):
I stay? He's really not my schoption, Ah, Diane, it's
Marcus good evening.

Speaker 11 (45:59):
Oh, Marcus I guess you'd have felt it more than
Daneda in Bluff.

Speaker 2 (46:03):
It was too though, wasn't it? Well, Vanessa, see there
was two. I thought one was the after shock, but Dave,
I think so, I said, because it was a bit
close for an after shock. So yeah, I guess that was.

Speaker 13 (46:12):
We're birds going a bit and saying as we're rendled
is the two dogs didn't do anything and the cat
stood upright?

Speaker 2 (46:21):
Wow? And where did you say you were? And we're
in Ravensborn. I just felt another shock. Are you just
feeling another shock?

Speaker 23 (46:27):
Now?

Speaker 19 (46:29):
Not yet?

Speaker 24 (46:30):
No?

Speaker 2 (46:31):
How about now? No, we're not.

Speaker 10 (46:35):
No, I'm not feeling anything.

Speaker 4 (46:38):
John.

Speaker 2 (46:38):
That was quite amazing.

Speaker 11 (46:39):
We haven't had one for ages, No, No, and.

Speaker 2 (46:43):
I've only had and I've done radio for twenty years.
I've only had one one other time it's been on here.
So yeah, that was a real shock. Anyway, Diane, thank
you for that. We'll go to Noel. It's Marcus. Good evening.

Speaker 23 (46:55):
Yeah, you any Marcus here. I was trying to ring
him before you actually got it or the earthquake, because
we had it here, but it went for about twenty seconds.
It's just backwards and forwards, backwards and forward.

Speaker 2 (47:06):
Were you listening to me on here?

Speaker 28 (47:08):
Yeah, so I'm going to try straight away.

Speaker 2 (47:11):
I'm on eight seconds delay. So once I talked about it,
had you heard eight seconds before that? Because you're in OHI,
you might have heard it sooner.

Speaker 12 (47:19):
Yeah, it was before you came up with it.

Speaker 2 (47:22):
Yeah, okay, I wonder why we didn't. I wonder why
we didn't get that alert.

Speaker 23 (47:26):
No, I never had any alert.

Speaker 2 (47:28):
Now because normally were the biggies for getting the alert.
We've been let down with this glad. Yeah, okay, dB,
it's Marcus. Good evening.

Speaker 28 (47:36):
I was going to ask you what your delay was
because I felt it happened White Holer. Yeah, so I'm
just south of the lead at the moment it was noticeable.
It caused my whining to slosh backwards and forwards.

Speaker 8 (47:51):
That's not on.

Speaker 28 (47:53):
And then I think I waited fifteen seconds before you
suddenly said wait, when we're having an earthquake, So minus
your eight seconds?

Speaker 2 (48:01):
Yeah, seven. But of course I'm on a seat talking
and I'm googling Timu to visualize his knife with the
sea through container. I'm on a hydraulic chair with sponge.
So yeah, because it was a rolling kind of nes.

Speaker 28 (48:15):
Got it in Fieldland at six point four okay.

Speaker 2 (48:19):
And it has been it has been felt by almost
ten thousand people that have reported it, and that's from
Stuart Island right up to Aukland, so this would be
the most widely felt quake we've had this year.

Speaker 28 (48:33):
Absolutely, I'm gonna have to ring up night camps to
see if our flatmates still upright with the tents.

Speaker 2 (48:44):
Oh it's a good okay. I'm gonna have to get
some commercial commercials out of the way. Dave, there's another's
I'm just saving an after shock. Now are you getting that?

Speaker 8 (48:51):
No, there's doing nothing more. I heard you saying about
it something okay.

Speaker 2 (48:56):
Oh sorry, David. I don't think I was really listening
to your properly about your wetstone. But Barbara's Marcus, good evening.

Speaker 10 (49:04):
Oh Marcus, we've just had a bit of an earthquake here.
Has been recorded anywhere else?

Speaker 2 (49:13):
Yes, it has so I was on air and I
felt it, which which I thought, Yeah, but it's a
six point four. It's a big quake. Oh my god,
a strong earthquake six point forward is now and it
was forty k's southwest of Milford.

Speaker 15 (49:31):
Sound well, I'm Inderneden.

Speaker 10 (49:37):
Put Carlton Hill.

Speaker 2 (49:40):
Yeah, that would be about the same. You'd be about
the same latitude, it seems to be. I imagine where
they've felt it. Really, the closest place would be Tiana,
which is quite close to it as the crow flies
with only about twenty k's so I wouldn't be surprised
to the things off shells there.

Speaker 17 (49:56):
It was sort of rolling.

Speaker 2 (49:58):
Yeah, real rolly, wasn't it.

Speaker 15 (50:00):
Yeah, it was horrible.

Speaker 10 (50:02):
I think weally have another one.

Speaker 2 (50:06):
Look, I would imagine, no, oh god, I have not. Yeah, no,
I would think that. Look, yeah, look I don't Yeah, yeah,
I wouldn't say we got another one, Barbara. But keep
listening anyway and I'll suit we're not like and predict them.
Good evening, Jill, this is Marcus.

Speaker 29 (50:25):
Welcome evening, Marcus, am Maru. And I was listening to
you and the next thing has started shaking. It was
really quite a rollly, good old shake, and.

Speaker 2 (50:39):
A lot of people have marked it as been very strong.
I'm looking at what people are saying about it. But
although I don't know if there's stuff off shells, but
it is it's a big quake.

Speaker 29 (50:52):
I felt another one about I suppose it would be
about two minutes ago.

Speaker 2 (50:57):
Now, oh, you know, shook me up?

Speaker 8 (50:59):
All right?

Speaker 29 (51:03):
Could everybody's okay?

Speaker 2 (51:05):
Jill?

Speaker 18 (51:06):
Did you feel it?

Speaker 2 (51:07):
Then you heard me talking about it, you said.

Speaker 29 (51:11):
Oh, there's an earthquake, and then about I suppose about
twenty thirty seconds later, it started really rotten here.

Speaker 2 (51:20):
It's interesting because obviously I'm obviously on delay eight seconds,
so that must be about thirty eight seconds for it
to get to Amy for you, so delayed, which is
interesting how slow it moves. So yeah, wow, Jill, thank
you for that. Its like we're like the human seismologist
with us with a different reports. Good evening, Jeremy, it's Marcus. Welcome,

(51:40):
Hi MICUs.

Speaker 22 (51:43):
Yeah, no, I felt the earthquake as well. Were you
just I'm in Monica.

Speaker 2 (51:48):
Yeah, I think that would be one of the I mean,
looking at the map, that's quite close, isn't it.

Speaker 22 (51:52):
Yeah, it was a pretty big shake. Me and my
friend were just I'm just round to her house and
I was just sat on the couch and the chimney
on the fireplace started wobbling making a noise, and I
stood up. I was like, oh, mate, oh that's an earthquake,
and you know, there's a cactus and that's sad of chasing,
and all the lamps and everything in the coat hangings
started moving around.

Speaker 2 (52:11):
Can anything full off the ball or anything?

Speaker 22 (52:14):
Nah, everything's pretty secure around here, but I think if
there was something loose or close to the edge of something,
something might have fall fallen off.

Speaker 2 (52:21):
So imagine the place closest to it as Tiano or
and then Queen's down. But often it's depending on like
what's underground, if it's rock or if it's you know,
if it's silt, depends on how much it's going to rock.
So I don't know, you know, I imagine Tiano would
have got it, but I haven't heard from anyone from
there yet, so I'll see if I can find out
about that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, Thanks Thanks Jery, nice

(52:44):
to hear. For anyone else. Got any earthquakeer updates for us,
particularly Tiano or Manaputi Marcus. I'ment Alexandra rocking here, not
scary stuff, just moved to you. Hope everyone is okay.
There will likely be after shocks for six point four.
After shocks are smaller, those working and living at at
Milford will have felt it strongly. The Missus and Iron

(53:06):
out of that house and our pantiloons and jumped in
the land cruiser. Neighbors. Scaffolding was swaying on the new
Chuck house we're in bannock Burn. Felled it in Long Beach, Dunedin. Marcus,
the earthquake could be laud to the Alpine fault of
at two per cent. It was Milford, is that's right?
They talk a lot down here about AF eight. It's
got its own name. When it on zips felt in

(53:27):
Long Beach, Dunedin. My daughter and son in law at
Holland Queenstown. It was a very strong one. My daughter
texted me Marcus, arm and Manapuri quite strong and rolling. Marie,
but ree anything off your shelves there are you good?
I wonder about Tiano and Manapuri felt in Timidoo's strong rolling.
There's been a three point six after that. A text

(53:48):
here not confirmed, but sounds like they are evacuating Milford's sound.
So I guess they'd be worried about a the shape
of a the basin shape of a fiord. You could
get a strong wave coming in there, but you'd have
to go quickly. So I don't know if there's I
hadn't thought about that, I'll go down and worried about

(54:09):
Vanessa and the kids. No, I don't think. I don't
think there'd be I don't think there be a I
think it's the wrong direction for a Tsuna army. Oh
the warning would go off anyway, wouldn't it show head
for the hills. So just the update. There was an earthquake,
and it's quite a big one. It was a six
point three That was fourteen minutes ago. There's subsequently been

(54:31):
a three point six and a three point one and
a three point three, so there's been four aftershock. So
three one, eight minutes ago, one, six minutes ago, one,
three minutes ago. Oh the humanity twenty nine away from ten.
Keep your calls coming through. It's quake talking about you.
That would be a concern too, because I don't know
if there be many people living in Milford Sound. It

(54:54):
wouldn't be the season for people, wouldn't be tramping, but
there people probably at the hotel working their staff, roading people.
So yes, imagine, Well the words are they might be evacuating.
I've got number information, but if you have got any.

Speaker 8 (55:05):
Let me know.

Speaker 2 (55:09):
Wow, paul In its Marcus, good evening.

Speaker 4 (55:12):
Hello, Marcus, just to let you know. I'm in Canterbury
by Methin at the moment and there was no earthquake,
so it's really interesting that people in Auckland and sung
A Ray felt it.

Speaker 2 (55:24):
Yeah, people have felt it widely in Canterbury, have they. Yeah,
I'm looking because you can go now to a report
that's the people log on and say where they've felt
it really yeah, and it's it's been felt. It's been
felt everywhere in the South Island apart from around that
Blenham coast. So it's been felt both up the west
coast and the East coast. Yes, so it has been

(55:46):
felt very widely, so mid Canterbury as well, very much.

Speaker 9 (55:49):
So.

Speaker 4 (55:49):
Yes, gosh, gosh, I didn't feel the thing. Thanks very
much for that.

Speaker 2 (55:54):
Actually, actually you make a good point. I'm looking at
the map now and probably it's been felt a lot
in christ Church, but that area between christ Church and
it's a been hard for me to look between christ
Church and Rangatata. Probably not so much on those planes there.
It's just more when it gets into the hills down.

Speaker 18 (56:16):
That it's.

Speaker 2 (56:18):
Felt around Windchester that it starts feeling it again too,
So you probably are right. You probably haven't felt it there, Pauline,
but thanks for the report anyway, big quake twenty seven
to ten. If you've got more information at US. No
only felt the first quake, nothing after here and Lawrence

(56:38):
Marc's in Dneedin, Helensburg. I felt the shake A couple
of sex before who'd you mentioned on the radio? Passed quickly,
nothing rattled, felt none of the aftershocks. Interesting detirement from
your broadcasting delay. Felt the quake and Graymouth decent rolling
shape went on for about a minute. Felt in Dunedin.
There is even more a delay if we're listening in
our Heeart radio. So in the text during the quake, Marcus,

(57:01):
I understand there was a fifty dollars a part payment
for the sameg knife block. If you send me an
account number, I can take care of that for NiFe guy.
Well that's a nice that's a nice offer. I got
it during your delay of rapid vibration through the setting
walls and floors. And I'm in a piled wooden structure
over Glacier Moraine. Petty, it's Marcus, good evening, Yeah.

Speaker 24 (57:22):
H I just quite clean, Marcaus. I'm in Auckland and anyway,
I had the radio go thing and everything going like
I've got TV going, and then I had the phone
just sort of lying beside those things, and right at
that time, my phone went like that, like I thought,
what the hell is that? It's almost like it picked

(57:46):
it off off the radio signal. It wasn't any shaking,
but I thought, it's stranger. What's the phone doing?

Speaker 2 (57:53):
So you've got a phone alert, did you?

Speaker 24 (57:55):
Yeah, not not an alert, but there was the phone
sort of picked up a frequency off a sort of
right at the time the youthquake would have been sort
of like interference. Okay, yeah, you're not no shaking or anything,
but I thought, but it was a strange one. And

(58:16):
I looked at the phone and I thought, what the
hell is going on with the phone?

Speaker 2 (58:19):
We'll see something else has felt that, petty. Thank you, Adam.
You're in Queenstown, are you?

Speaker 18 (58:23):
Yes, sir?

Speaker 2 (58:25):
And quite strong there?

Speaker 18 (58:27):
Oh yeah, whole room was shaken. Wow, my running out scared?

Speaker 2 (58:32):
Are you a here? Are you here on holiday?

Speaker 4 (58:37):
No?

Speaker 28 (58:37):
I do live here.

Speaker 2 (58:38):
Okay, okay, in any damage in Queenstown at.

Speaker 18 (58:41):
All, not not from the looks of it so far,
but I could be wrong.

Speaker 2 (58:47):
But people were running out of the place where they
to get into the streets. Yeah, okay, appreciate that, Adam,
thank you. Twenty five to ten in Queenstown was pretty strong.
Can you get any one on the phone from Tiana.
Would love to know if the people there are okay?
Shake just out of Cromwell, Bennett, thank you, good shake

(59:08):
and ren fairly, Anna said, Marcus just called Tiano black Dog.
Everyone's safe and okay and Tiano, Yes, it was a
big jolt, no damage, no evacuation. People are okay and
the bar is still operating. Anna, thank you for that. Anna.
It might be Anna, So the black Dog's fine. Marcus
has just been another four point one. I just tuned in, Marcus.

(59:28):
Where was the quake? Kathy Tara? The quake was Milford,
sound good, Dunedin, very very strong, vibrating fifteen twenty seconds.
It didn't leave you wondering, Marcus. It's Duke care from Queenstown.
It was re exaggerated here on the Crown Range, followed
by a big roar. Hope our mates, the snow groomers
are okay. Anyone can fake those felt reports Dominesh Burton

(59:51):
when the app because we notification there was an earthquake.
I always click extreme damage. But that's a cry for
help from you, mister Eshburton. Word I've had is that
Milford Critical Instant Group confirmes all okay, but evacuated the
higher ground third hed info though, So there we go.
That's the situation. How many people would be in Milford
to that texture? I forgot some information about that. Let

(01:00:13):
us know. There'll be someone that works in East Emergency Services.
Now let me see what else I've got for you.
The National version of Emergency Agency has received notification of
an earthquake with the following parameters. They are assessing whether

(01:00:36):
the earthquake has created a tsunami that could affit New
Zealand long or strong, get gone. People should be self
evacuating immediately from more places near the coast where the
earthquake was fell either for longer than a minute or
was strong enough that it was hard to stand in
these areas, a tsunami may have been generated and may
arrive quickly. So evacuated media to the highest ground and
says do not stay at home if you are near

(01:00:57):
the coast and felt the earthquake long or strong, very
good parameters. So it's going to be long as long
as a minute or you can't stand well. I certainly
didn't get that, but that's the thank you for that, Dan.
So I'll just go back to geonette to see because
this seems to be a fast breaking story. I just
type an EQ and Z, but geonettes.

Speaker 9 (01:01:17):
Where you go.

Speaker 2 (01:01:18):
So, yes, the four point one was seven minutes ago,
A three point eight eight minutes ago, three point four
ten minutes ago, with three point three thirty minutes ago. Three,
so there's been five fairly strong after shakes and the
earthquake was felt strong a six point three. And we
don't get strong ones that often. The last strong one

(01:01:39):
was five k's west of Panga'a, which was in January.
So this is certainly the strongest for the last six months. Oh,
it's much here. This has been the lot strongest quake
we've had probably four. Looking at strong and above earthquakes,
it's the actual I've probably got my I've probably got
some sort of information on my council email but my

(01:02:00):
laptops in the car. But yeah, we don't get them
that strong very often at all, but four. It would
be on the most isolated land mess there is in
the country. I mean, it's right in the heart of Fijorudland,
so you couldn't really get any more anywhere more remote.
That would be my take on that one. It's twenty
to ten heit on midnight. I guess the good thing
is too that the it's school highays because normally there

(01:02:23):
are children at Deep Cove in Doubtful Sound. I think
it's doubtful that go there. That's where all the south
and kids go for their couple of weeks for camp.
But yeah, there's no one there, so they won't have
to be a VET. Well, they wouldn't be evcuated because
they couldn't they have to go to higher ground. Yes,
so that's the quake. That's the big news for tonight. Wow, ECTU,
you haven't gone to on. Twitter's always big on quakes,

(01:02:43):
isn't it. I'd forgotten about that. I'll see what people
are saying. If you want to talk, get in touch.
Eight hundred and eighty ten eighty and nine. That's my
quotter of gold for the night. I don't think we
need thank you for the person offered fifty dollars for
Marx nives. I don't think we need the I don't
think we need the money. But I appreciate that. I
just want the stickers. Now, what was I What was

(01:03:05):
I in the middle of doing? Oh, yes, that's right.
I was checking Twitter to see what people are saying,
because they've got a good hashtag with its normally eq
What is it normally eqnz, isn't it? Well that's a
bit of a sesspit these days. But we'll see what
they're saying about that. There might be some more information. Yeah,
no one's reporting damage that I can see, but yeah, Tiano,

(01:03:26):
I think would be the major place that would be
in the epicenter of that. So that oh and old Yeah,
so I've got to get back onto some other talk back.
But we'll see how we go. Someone says Move says
I'm not ex I'm no expert, which is a great
way to start a text out an earthquake. I have
no expert. However, if there's a large earthquake just off
shore from a hollow of deep water, Felds, I think

(01:03:47):
you would be expecting some very big title sages minimum Move.
I guess i'd be worried about their boats too, because
Real Journey's got their boats there, so I guess there'd
be a concern. But it's inland. It's not at sea.
It's not the one that hit like the one that
hit the Bali. Marcus wondering if you have any listeners
living in Balkluther could call if they felt the quake.
My sister lives there or she probably will have felt it, Marcus.

(01:04:10):
One lady talked about radio interference. I too had that
and the outer plorer sounds, but nothing else. Why would
you have could someone explains I should have asked dB.
He's good on that. Could they want to tell me
why you'd have radio selfone interference during a quake. Someone said,
lucky the quakes at night, not during the day while
people were skiing in the Queenstown area. Hopefully no damage,
no earthquake, no avalanche caused damage. Not Toto felt it before,

(01:04:34):
you said on the radio, I heard it coming. Brought
back memories of the chrost chitch quakes. Really unsettling. Let's
hope that's it for the night. Cromwell got a big
shake old crumbers. So that's the situation. Brendan, it's Marcus. Welcome, Welcome, Marcus.

Speaker 30 (01:04:49):
I've just got home and Bluff and me seven foot
ladder was shaking in the lounge.

Speaker 22 (01:04:53):
Really probably didn't feel it.

Speaker 30 (01:04:55):
But I've also had the radio interference just now. I've
just come home and turned it all on. Yeah, I
was on the road so I didn't feel it, but
my ladder was shaking in the lounge.

Speaker 2 (01:05:06):
Why do you have are you doing renovate? Why you
got a letter in the lounge?

Speaker 13 (01:05:10):
Oh, I don't have a tall sheet. I thought it
was me, but then no, I'm not that boot okay,
And and the radio interpearence said you at all okay, Brian.

Speaker 2 (01:05:24):
Thanks for that, Brendan. But yeah, it's been widely felt.
If you go to GEO, NEET or eqn Z the
website what they are saying if you just click on
view all earthquakes, and there's been eight significant after shocks
so far, the strong earthquakes thirty one minutes ago, and

(01:05:45):
you can go and click on where it's been felt,
and eighteen thousand, five hundred and thirty people have responded
and said they've felt it from as far south as
Stuart Island, where four people have felt it. Well, these
might be representative numbers. And it's been felt way up
north also too, but not so much around Canterbury where

(01:06:05):
it's I guess doesn't go through the you know what
I'm calling it. The when it's not rockets probably don't
travel as far someone. Gill says Marcus, there has been
a tsunami warning at Milford just recently. All staff heading
to higher ground. Thanks for that, Gil. So these are
just texts I'm getting. I don't know where that person's

(01:06:27):
got that information from, but that's the information I've got.
Someone said Civil Defense has issued a tsunami warning. Now
that's not one that I have got, and I don't
even know, to be honest, I never know where i'd
find that, Dan, do you know anything about that? Normally
I go to Facebook, but you think maybe on the radio.
It would be across any Civil Defense warnings. I'll just

(01:06:48):
see if I can talk to Dan. Someone said that
Civil Defense has put out a warning. Where would we
hear that? Okay, so they've said there is a tsunami warning. Okay,
So I've got it now I'm on their Facebook page.
So update at nine forty one Army warning has been
issued for following the magnitude six point three earthquake Nearfjord

(01:07:12):
and go to dub dub dub dot civil Defense for
the most update information gosh, they're bad communicators. I hate
to say it, but you know, really they click that
answers tem temporarily unavailable and that just makes it anyway.
So I've got it texted from my boss. But while
you can't go to Facebook and get it, it's shocking.

(01:07:34):
This is a tsunami warning for coastal areas following the
magnitude six point three earthquake near forty k's north of Tiano.
Areas under threat. Land inundation is likely in the following areas.
People near the coast of the following areas must have
move immediately to the nearest high ground, out of tsunami
evacuation zones or as far inland as possible. The west

(01:07:54):
coast of the South Island from Milford Sound to Pusicas
to Pusica Point, and there's an attached map now for
those that know that area. There is no one there. Yeah,
so there'll be a few people in Milford Sound, but
apart from the people at that deep cove, the camp
which is the old Munapuri headquarters, there's no one there
at the moment. So it comes almost right round as

(01:08:17):
far as Bluff from that map, which is wrong. You'll
be right, Denny, do not go sightseeing. Yeah, they should
have been more specific about that. So it's from west
coast to the South Island, from Milford Sound to Pusica Sound.
That's the heartland of Fjordland. So there's no settlements around
there apart from Milford Sound and the hotels and the boats.

(01:08:39):
But yeah, I mean Pusica Point there was a lighthouse,
but they got rid of that fifty years ago. So yeah,
there's literally no one right around that coast. And I'm
pretty sure about that. But anyway, that's a situation ten
away from ten o'clock. We don't have to be able
to stand seven away from ten o'clock be in touch
if you want to talk. The numbers are eight hundred
and eighty ten. We don't have to start these connects commercials,

(01:09:02):
stand and sort of way. Okay, yeah, Calvin, it's Marcus.
Good evening, good evening, market.

Speaker 26 (01:09:07):
How are you doing good?

Speaker 2 (01:09:08):
Calvin? What can you tell me?

Speaker 3 (01:09:10):
Now?

Speaker 17 (01:09:10):
You know how you talk about quod Heaven, the youth
cakes yep, yeah, now yeah, Riches the South, Well, I
know what Quosi's went through.

Speaker 2 (01:09:17):
Yeah, I think if I always kind of knew what
happened there, Calvin. I think there was always a fee
bit of understanding, but yeah, I appreciate you coming through
with that. Thanks for that, someone said Marcus friends and
Riverton been told to get to higher ground. That's from Ben.
Now I can tell you what. As far as what's
come through from the National Warning tsunami threat, they have
said the area is the west coast of the South

(01:09:39):
Island from Milford Sound to Pusaga. Now what is confusing
is their map indicate a different area, but it doesn't
go as far around as Riverton to what I can see.
I'll try and get some clarity about that. So that's
a situation there. I'll see if I can speak to someone.
Seven to ten. Just to recap, there has been a

(01:10:00):
strong quake about forty five minutes ago that was centered
just south of Milford Sound. A tsunami threat has been
issued a tsunami warning for the coastal areas following the
magnitude six point three earthquake forty k's north of Tiano.
They're saying land inundations luck in the following areas. People

(01:10:21):
near the coast in the following areas must move a
media to the nearest high ground out of tsunami evacuation
zoned or as far inland as possible, and that zone
is the west coast of the South Island from Milford
Sound to Pusaca Point, so that is all of Fiordland
on the coast. So it would be my understanding the
only people there would be the people in Milford Sound.

(01:10:42):
Perhaps there would be some hunting parties or some people
there at Deep Cove. They've also put a map with that.
It says where you should evacuate from. Unfortunately the map
doesn't exactly correlate with what they're saying is the evacuations
on the map, evacuation zone comes around further to the Humpbridge.

(01:11:04):
But that's a situation I've got for you. I'll get
some more information and bring that to you when I can.
But yeah, there seems to be no reports I can
see of damage, but fairly strong shape, widely felt right
around New Zealand. So yeah, get in touch of your
talk about this or anything else. Oh, eight hundred and
eighty ten eighty and nine to nine two detects Hittl twelve.

(01:11:27):
I look forward to what you've got to say. Just
the latest for you with the quake, the evacuation warning
for the tsunami threat does say from Milford Sound to
pusic a point the map indicates a slightly larger area
to be evacuated. But I think the point is is
the diagram the map has predetermined areas. It's like you
click on the area, so it does say just between

(01:11:48):
Pusicup and Milford Sound. So that's ther information that I
have got. But they are saying is the if the
quake was long and strong, get gone long? Is over
a minute strong as that you can't stand and that's
a situation. I have got an email from a woman

(01:12:08):
who is in Tiano. She emailed quite early after it.
She said the power was out there. I've got any
other reports of that, that there's a power outage, but
everyone's got any more information about that. So, yes, Milford
Sound would have been the closest place to the quake.
But Milford Sound I don't even know if many people
live in. If any people living at Melford Sound, they
will be in the summer when they're doing the Milford track,

(01:12:30):
but I don't know about this, so there wouldn't be many.
But Tiano would be the closest town to the quake.
But of course Tiano is not a coastal town. It's coastal,
but it's on the lake. And I've heard no reports
evacuating from the side of the lake. So that's a situation.
If you've got texts about that, I'll read those. Someone
said it was felt in Brown's Bay. Marcus, I'm an arrowtown.

(01:12:53):
I felt a few quakes. There was the worst I've experienced.
Everything shook. It was scary. Marcus. We live in Dipton
and felt the quake. It's the first time the kids
will be out of their rooms all night. And someone
says there will be fishing in diving groups at Deep
Cove since it's the school holidays. And someone said, instead
of collecting red stick beause I think we need to
start a collection so Brandon doesn't have to store his

(01:13:13):
tools in the lounge. A could quite work at what happened,
and he was driving when he saw the ladder moving.
I'll get in touch you on talk if you have
got any information about the quake that we haven't talked about.
It's a six point three. It's the biggest quake of
the year, but the biggest quake for the last couple
of years. But in probably New Zealand's most remote area,
which is Milford Sound. Well forty k's where it exactly

(01:13:34):
was was forty k's. They're now saying it's they've changed
the location of it since it was first reported. They're
now saying it was forty k's north of Tiano. That's
the epicenter. So forty k's north of Tiano, and I
think it's where the takahay was found us at the
Darren and the so that's the spot. It's an extremely

(01:13:54):
isolated spot, but very much bang I would say on
the alpine fault and the other information I can give you.
It's been felt very widely and there's been a three
point six out of Shogu three pot for shocking, three
point four our chock, four point three otter shock three
point five, four point out of shock, three point three
after shock. I'm not feeding those subsequent aftershocks in Dvert Cargill.

(01:14:14):
If you have any comments about this or anything else,
feel free to come through. I'm not what you want
to get the talk about going on now, so if
you want to take your chances, this is a good
time to talk about preparedness. Someone says, was there any
tsunami warnings. Yes, I was just reading that out. There
is a tsunami warning between Milford Sound and Pusaca Point.
Someone said watch the kitchen lights swinging for what felt

(01:14:36):
like a minute. Pregnant wife thought baby might be shaken out. Anyway,
that's a situation if you want to talk about that
or by the way, I know from a news point
of view, what they do like to know is about
if things are off shelves. The herald headline is immediate
evacuation required, damaging tsunami possible after six point three and
Tiano quake. This try to make sure there's num more

(01:14:57):
information there and I'm not seeing anything. Let me just
have a quick scroll through that. It does say FEE
warns the first ten Army wave may not be the
biggest and has their conditions could continue for several hours
until an official or clear is issued. But those people
in Milford Sound, I mean it'd be very easy for
them to get the higher ground as soon as on

(01:15:18):
the road they're going up. Well, but yeah, I don't
imagine many people at all would be in that area.
So there we go. That's the situation from the New
Zealand Herald, and that's what they are reporting. I just
see what the other news sources are saying. I just
make sure we've covered everything off, just putting up the
NEMER map and every kind of Jenky report on this

(01:15:38):
side to see what they are indeads saying as well.
But if you want to talk about this or anything else,
did I get in touch? Oh eight hundred and eighty
eight ten eightive you just joined And there has been
a very big quake, were the biggest of the year
six point three, but in a very remote area of
Milford Sound just south of there. The headliners evacuate, but
there's very few people living in that area. There's an
immediate evacuation notice. Now there's been the latest thing. Tonight's

(01:16:02):
earthquake has been downgraded to a five point nine. Who's
this from DAN Emergency Emergency Management Southland. Tonight's earthquake. They
will have activated the bunker. Tonight's earthquake has been downgraded
for a five point nine magnitude. There is no tsunami threat.
If you felt and thought, wow, that's strong, long I'll
get gone, then you've done the right thing. There may

(01:16:24):
be strong and unusual currents in the next few days,
particularly around Milford and coastal areas. So that is the
Emergency Management South and that's what's through from them. So
back to normal, and it's all good to go by
the way. Someone's done the work. And the closest person
perhaps living to the earthquake would be someone at Hankinson Hut,

(01:16:48):
which is at Lake Hankinson, which is very close to
where the epicenter was. On the George soundtrack, I think
that's when you've got to borrow a canoe to get
across that lake. There's a permanent canoe there. Anyway, that's
enough for me if you want to talk. When I
get in touch, oh eight hundred and eighty tatty and
nine two nine two to text, normal transmission will now continue.
So yep, that's we've sort of all of that out.

(01:17:10):
They've now said there is no tsunami warning. It's bound
downgraded to a five point nine, although I'm not saying
that on eqn Z hasn't been downgraded there yet, which
I think surprising, but oh well, no doubt we'll get
more information about that. So you've heard the latest information
here and I think we're just about to cover that off.
So yes, So onwards and upwards with the show fourteen
past ten. If you want to be involved, get in

(01:17:32):
touch yep, and what else am I seeing here? Just
called NIMA Deputy PIM confirming evacuation messages are canceled. The
message is the latest infoto broadcast. The advice represents a
downgrade from warning. The reason for this downgrade is because
the U magnatuy of the earthquake has been advised down
to five point nine. It says people on boats liver

(01:17:53):
boards that marinas should leave their boats and move on
to the shore. Do not return to the boat lesonstrated
by officials. There is no need to evacuate other areas.
So there we go. That's all of that. And if
you want to talk on air, eight hundred and eighty
ten eighty nine. So the websites and news websites are
still saying immediate evacuation required. That's the thing about radio.
We can actually bring the information straight away. You're not

(01:18:15):
required to do that. And it's fifteen past tea. It
was a bit of excitement, wasn't it. You know I
said it would be clearly the strongest earthquake. I felt, well,
I've been broadcasting by a country mile. Although I am
now in a single story building. Last time I was
on the other body, which was a double story concrete building,
was very solid, but it shocked a concrete building. So
this one, yeah, felt like it can't handle it pretty well.

(01:18:37):
Your market's market's.

Speaker 9 (01:18:38):
Good evening, right right?

Speaker 14 (01:18:41):
How are you doing?

Speaker 2 (01:18:42):
You're good?

Speaker 9 (01:18:42):
Make yourself Yeah good.

Speaker 14 (01:18:44):
Just listening in on you the first time. I'm cooler.
Taking me a long time to ring a bit, sing
a bit ringing. End of this scenario of this talk
back business listening in on just about every brow man
a whole lot. Oh you've got a good you got

(01:19:05):
a good thing going on.

Speaker 2 (01:19:07):
Oh thanks for that.

Speaker 14 (01:19:08):
But I was just wanting to understand me of what's
going on with the quakes.

Speaker 2 (01:19:12):
Are you in the South Marc?

Speaker 14 (01:19:14):
Yes, picked them, Oh yeah, it was a little well
picked them. But I felt a shake on the carve in,
and I thought it was me landlord coming over to
go harry up and pay your.

Speaker 2 (01:19:25):
Rent about forty minutes ago, was it?

Speaker 16 (01:19:29):
Yeah, I just.

Speaker 14 (01:19:30):
Thought I had a shake on the side of the
cave and he had the music turned up on a
different station, and yeah, I thought I might have been
getting a shake from the landlord to say hurry up
and pay your rent. What what I already paid it already.

Speaker 2 (01:19:44):
What music was playing when the quake hit?

Speaker 9 (01:19:47):
Actually, what was it?

Speaker 14 (01:19:48):
It was ac DC. I think he understrap brilliant mark.

Speaker 2 (01:19:59):
Now it's all good. Now there's no dramma. That's it
for the night, I think so.

Speaker 9 (01:20:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:20:02):
But nice to hear from you anywhere. He's staying in touch.

Speaker 14 (01:20:04):
Awesome.

Speaker 2 (01:20:05):
I'm a bit worried about the old landlord. He sounds
like he's got the grip, the grip of fear on you.

Speaker 14 (01:20:10):
No, he's good. He's a good, honest feller.

Speaker 2 (01:20:14):
Okay.

Speaker 14 (01:20:14):
He makes sure he does his usual rounds around the
camp every day, just to make sure we ain't digging
tunnels to get a way out of here.

Speaker 2 (01:20:26):
That's there from your mark, eighteen past ten. This is interesting.
In Queenstown they've closed the Edith Cavell Bridge. That's the
bridge from Arthur's Point across as you're going to Cone Peak.
That's the arch bridge where the shot of a jets
go under. That's been closed. This is from Queenstown Lakes
District Council. As you may have recently felt, we've just

(01:20:46):
experienced a significant quake. As a precaution, the Edith Cavell
bridge will be closed for inspection by engineers at first light,
will provide a further update around eight thirty in the morning.
So they've closed it now badly written where these comms
people will provide a further update around eight thirty in
the morning. And now they there's a cancelation of the

(01:21:07):
evacuation notice. They've downgraded that to a five point nine.
There is now no tsunami warning. So they were saying
for people to evacuate. Now there is no warning, although
they have seen the BRAVISO. If it's long and strong,
get gone, but there is no tsunami warning. By the way,
if you're trying to know the Crown range, it says
please drive carefully and be alert for rocks or debris
that may have fallen off the road as a result

(01:21:29):
of the quake, which is fair enough. James Marcus, welcome market.

Speaker 18 (01:21:33):
How are you going good, James?

Speaker 2 (01:21:34):
How are you going all right? Yeah?

Speaker 19 (01:21:36):
Not too bad. I'll tell you what I've been in
this earthquake. I was sitting in the Lauds, I was
watching TV and I'm in quite an older house next
to the lake in Queenstown, and I thought my mate
who I lived with, was walking down the hall. Wow,

(01:21:58):
and yeah, it sounded like he was right there and
it just bump, It didn't stop, keep going. He must
be getting closer now and it just kept going.

Speaker 15 (01:22:12):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:22:12):
Are you close to the center of Queenstown? Was there
anyone out on the streets worried about what to do?

Speaker 3 (01:22:17):
No?

Speaker 19 (01:22:18):
I live on a station. Oh yeah, little of nowhere.
It's close to the art out which is.

Speaker 2 (01:22:27):
Are you on the western side of the lake like
halfway Bay? No, I'm down Glen Orkie, yep, understand, down.

Speaker 19 (01:22:37):
By the dark River.

Speaker 13 (01:22:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 19 (01:22:40):
Yeah, And I'd like to give a shout out to
my mother and maybe my grandmother as well as she's listening.

Speaker 18 (01:22:48):
What do you do?

Speaker 24 (01:22:48):
Are you?

Speaker 2 (01:22:49):
Are you shippening there or doing something?

Speaker 24 (01:22:51):
Yeah?

Speaker 19 (01:22:52):
Yeah, yep, shippening on Greenstone station?

Speaker 2 (01:22:55):
Copy of that. What's the what's radio reception like there? James?

Speaker 19 (01:23:01):
Oh, dreadful at the best of times. On if he Okay,
what are the eighteen hundred?

Speaker 4 (01:23:10):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:23:10):
But sometimes AFM travels a bit better, but it travels
a bit better through the sometimes it comes so you'd
be right in the flight path from all those planes
coming across from Australia too, would you.

Speaker 19 (01:23:20):
Ah tell me about it see them coming over all day.

Speaker 2 (01:23:24):
Yeah, because I see this because I had to pick
up a partner from the airport. You sink. There's thirteen
planes today coming from Australia, all coming over the top
of the lake.

Speaker 17 (01:23:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 19 (01:23:33):
I actually I met a person from Queen's down last weekend.

Speaker 2 (01:23:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 19 (01:23:42):
Yeah, I met a new new friend, Doug. Yes you
could court.

Speaker 2 (01:23:46):
Yeah, brilliant, Yeah, yeah, I'm down on bluff.

Speaker 19 (01:23:52):
Oh right, you feel it there.

Speaker 18 (01:23:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:23:55):
I was on here talking to a guy about buying
his knives on Timu and then I thought, heck there,
we've got a cat. And it went for about thirty
or forty seconds, and then there were a number of
after shocks.

Speaker 19 (01:24:05):
I'd have to be one of your younger listeners, Marcus.

Speaker 2 (01:24:10):
You'd also be one of the most Is it only
you there on your own?

Speaker 19 (01:24:14):
Billy's here as well?

Speaker 2 (01:24:15):
Say you got dogs.

Speaker 19 (01:24:19):
Billy's got a couple of dogs. His dad might be listening.

Speaker 2 (01:24:21):
Actually, Oh, brilliant, or shout out to him.

Speaker 19 (01:24:23):
Too, yeah, shout out Kenny, Yeah, shout ut Kenny, brilliant.

Speaker 2 (01:24:29):
Oh yeah, okay, Well please we keep you in touch
with it anyway, James. But you stay in touch, do
you get to Yeah, good on you, James, Classic classic.
Someone said another flight from Sydney was enduring about the
same time. Apparently the airport build in Swede that had
checked the tarmac for cracks before allowing it to land.

(01:24:53):
What's the quiz question you get out of the quake?
What we're talking about? When the quake hit, Tim knives, Marcus,
My grandmother was in Queenstown, had to go outside from
the hotel. So apparently the plane did have to go
around for about half an hour, but managed to land
before the ten pm curfew. Marcus, if you look on

(01:25:14):
ship tracker, the cruise ship the Heritage Explorer was there
on anchor and has now started steaming out. Tracy, Where
were they in Doubtful or in Milford?

Speaker 24 (01:25:26):
Oh?

Speaker 8 (01:25:26):
Here we go?

Speaker 2 (01:25:27):
Oh thanks for that, Leands texted Marcus land here. I
was in Queenstown Airport, drive to Queens and the airport
to pick up fell from Auckland flight and they couldn't
land because of the quake. They were just land at
nine fourteen, just as the earthquake had they went round
for They went round and gotten safely half an hour later,
not long before the ten pm curfew for landing. It's LeeAnne,
Malcolm thinks that leand so there we go. That's a situation. Brilliant, Marcus.

(01:25:53):
Are you getting these from official sources as you are
the Civil Defense Station?

Speaker 3 (01:25:56):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:25:57):
Absolutely. Now let me think what else I've got to
tell you people, EQ related or random TREKT had just
gone on fire randomly just out of Wamadoo. How you're
supposed to get go and catch a bus anyway, get
in touch. You want to talk a lot of information
coming through. What station was the farmer based? I think
it was called Greenstone Station or something. Marcus, how does

(01:26:21):
anyone know why there are different reports of the epicent
of the quake. Forty k's southwest of the entrance to
Milford Sound is near the dance of George Sound, but
twenty k's north of Tiano report from National Radio is
just near Tiana Downs. Anyway, I don't know the information about.
That's a little bit obscure for me. But get in
touch if you want to back soon. It's exciting to
hear from people where they all are. Someone was asking

(01:26:43):
where beans because bean sprout was a guy from George River.
But that's above where the quake was, too, well above,
they said the area when there was a warning was
just between Milford and Pusaca. Anyway, get in touch with
you on a talk and we we'll see if we
can get off the quake also though, but I think
that's fairly excited that people haven't felt quakes before. So
get in touch. Someone's texted Marcus just got a burger

(01:27:05):
for McDonalds and Queenstown. They asked, would you like to
shake with that? Lol? That's good. That's really good. They've
won the internet tonight. That's great. Gee, that's a wage
stavement of a wave. Wages come up with that. That's
a classic Billy good evening.

Speaker 9 (01:27:20):
You're there? Yeah, Hi, Billy, how's it mate?

Speaker 3 (01:27:22):
Hey?

Speaker 9 (01:27:23):
I was just ranging up about this earthquake.

Speaker 12 (01:27:26):
And I'll tell you what.

Speaker 15 (01:27:29):
My hat it's fell over in my room and my.

Speaker 12 (01:27:32):
Bed caught on fire.

Speaker 2 (01:27:34):
Wow, it was.

Speaker 19 (01:27:35):
It was insane and the house was still shaking for.

Speaker 7 (01:27:39):
The house over.

Speaker 2 (01:27:40):
What sort of heater are you running?

Speaker 12 (01:27:43):
Just like one of those haters that stands up and
it's got like four big bars.

Speaker 8 (01:27:47):
On it and it gets pretty hard and it's fell over.
Came back in my room and my sheets were on fire.

Speaker 2 (01:27:54):
Where are you, Billy?

Speaker 19 (01:27:56):
I'm in Glen Orkie.

Speaker 2 (01:27:57):
Okay, have you got it sorted?

Speaker 9 (01:27:59):
Yeah, I've got it all under control now.

Speaker 2 (01:28:01):
But okay, I'll move on, but thank you. Twenty eight
away from eleven oh wait eighty ten eighty nineteen into
the text say see, okay, I shouldn't laugh at a quest.
Sure what happens? And sometimes if you're on the small
town life at night anyway, get in touch, welcome hitdle

(01:28:22):
twelve and we probably could pivot to a new topic.
Now I don't want that new topic as but we
want to talk on air. Let's be hearing from you.
That's very good about the for McDonald's worker. But yes,
there was a bit of excitement now doing live updates now,
aren't they all the websites doing live updates of news?

(01:28:45):
Quake meat as you're down grade to five point nine,
anything else you want to talk about tonight, that would
be the plan. So get in touch Thursday free for all,
which is like a Friday free FRAU. But on Thursday,
I'm really I don't want to sound more adamant than
I probably am going to. But all this talk about
licenses and paper I've just take get a screenshot of

(01:29:07):
my driver's license and that's worked every time for me.
I had to pick the kids up from the airport,
I had to show proof of idea. I just showed
them a picture of a screenshot. I take it off
my driver lost for driver's license months ago, and that
seems to work perfectly. So what's that about. I think
we've all done it anyway. So yep, that's the whole
thing with license is that's the best way to do it.

(01:29:28):
Just take a screenshot works much better. So and it's
pretty easy. When you pick up pets at the airport,
they're not well. I don't know if it is. I
probably shouldn't make light of that. But to tell you what,
it's filthy weather and Sydney watching been with them. I
don't know if it's Sydney or Brisbee. So it's been
with Brisbane. So yeah, get in touch if you want
to talk, as I say, oh, eight hundred and eighty
ten eighty nine nine two de text, anything else you

(01:29:50):
want to come and talk about, feel free to get
in touch. Any quake stuff you've got or anything else.
Feel free to get in touch. As I say, do
do do do do do do do do doo do. Yeah,
let me just think if there's nothing else important I
need to tell you about that new it's come through.
But no, I think we've got you all the major
information that's through. Was a six point three was down

(01:30:12):
for five point nine. There was a tsunami warning, then
there wasn't. I think we told you all the things
we need to tell you at the time, and now
we got to work it were to talk about until midnight.
See April Levigne saying at Taylor Swift's wedding, she sang
skater Boy, Good honor Ah. Stevie next played and Taylor
was up with them, and April Levine played skater Boy.

(01:30:34):
So there you go. I don't know why we don't
have more inform. Not that I'm not that I'm a
Swift or a super fan, but I was curious about
what the line of a music was. That's happening now.
We were talking about fuel before the quake, and we
were talking about which if some of these cheaper fuels,
like the stuff at pack and say, don't have the
additives they should have, and if you find that the

(01:30:56):
fuel varies from station to station, so that's something you
want to mention. The other thing we're trying to get
the stick is for the guy Mark who wants to
get his Smeg knives. If you've got stickers, you don't
need get in touch with us and we'll give you
the post office box to send them to people. By
the way, I've already got their knives. I think what's
happening If people work at New World, they just ask

(01:31:18):
the customers if they want their stickers. If they know,
they just keep them. But they can't redeem them from
that shop. They've got to chain shops, which is quite interesting.
That's the situation I've got for you there anyway, twenty
three what but there's a ton of fighting on this
meet between pen With and Brisbane. Boy, there's about five fights.
It's been the they're all involved. I'm not sure what's
going on there, but it's been a it's been a

(01:31:40):
pretty nasty looking event. By the way, score a pen
With ten Brisbane eight. But get in touched you on
to talk on to your Marcus till twelve. Give me
that thing from the sun please, by the way. To
all the British papers have picked up the quake. It's
all like messive quake and tourist hot spot and stuff
like that, which just goes to show take everything with
the grain of sold I suppose I was going to
say something else interesting tonight. I just kind of work

(01:32:01):
forgotten what that was. Oh yes, someone said, unbelievably, the
Civil Defense website has crashed. Yeah, I couldn't leave that.
I was trying to get the information because we're an
official civil defense station. I didn't get it through my
bosses eventually. I mean I'm not saying eventually like it
took long, but they did a as soon as they
got But I've been to Facebook because Civil Defense were
pretty good on Facebook, and the announcement on Facebook said
there is a tsunami warning. Click here to find out.

(01:32:23):
You clicked there and there was a kind of a
too much traffic error, which is crazy. There's one website
that what you got. Yeah, it's still down. So there's
one website that's got to be robust. It's the Civil
Defense one. But it's still down. So it's crashed. The
one thing you'd want. So, you know, I saw out
Mark Mitchell. You know, one thing, that's what you got

(01:32:43):
to do. We got the website, so we get the
information straight away. This is what we want to do.
We want to log onto it. But yeah, someone else's
texted me how unbelievable that was. I agree. Anyway, it's
twenty to tier eleven. Just for those in south and
you you've had a busy night. But I can tell
you that the AM frequency is going to be turned

(01:33:04):
off at midnight. We're doing maintenance. So you've got to
on FM thing it's one hundred and four point six
or go to bed as they fix the transmission. That's
what's happening there. So that's just in Southland. I think
it's just the one frequency eight six four I think
it is, So yeah, that's been switched off, So that's
happening and text we've've got any more information. But the

(01:33:25):
interesting stuff too about that the earthquake is the plane
had to the plane couldn't land, had to circle for
half an hour while they checked the tarmac to make
sure there was no cracks because it was well felt
quite severely at Queenstown Airport. Will only be probably fifty
k's away from the epicenter. So that's happened. But yes,
that's what I've got to tell you people. If you

(01:33:45):
want to talk on air, there's enough quake information for you.
But that bridge in Queenstown has closed until the morning.
Sounds like it might be time to replace that bridge,
but it's probably got It's a beautiful bridge. It's probably
the historical significance, but looks like it's not the best
in quakes. Have you got emails seeing those through? I'll
read what I can the information that do come through.

(01:34:07):
As I say, oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty
and nine two nine two to text. And that's about
everything for you people. But you've got information that you
want to talk about, let's be hearing from you and
some of the other stuff I can tell you. Oh,
but I do want you to text me and let
me know how many of those stickers you've seen us
so we can start counting those. This day and history.

(01:34:28):
In nineteen sixty nine, Apolo eleven lifted off from the
JFK space here in Florida, and that's the flight that
resulted in the moonwalk. Also, The Catch and the Rye
was published this day in nineteen fifty one, and the
world's first atomic bomb was detonated on the Trinity Test
in the desert near Almagrdo in New Mexico. That was

(01:34:50):
this day in nineteen forty five, and the world's first
parking meters were installed in Oklahoma this day in nineteen
thirty five. Also, that was forty five for the bomb,
thirty five for the parking meter, So we're not far
away from one hundred anniversary of the parking meter. It's
going to be exciting day, isn't it. Whittakers have released
a Goody Goody Gums Drop chocolate. I don't know what

(01:35:11):
is more extraordinary is their ability to come up with
different flavors or their ability to garner so much free advertising.
It's the brand that can do no wrong, can it?
People just love it or the media love promoting it.
Whittakers have partnered with Duck Island ice Cream to launch
a tie in flavor. There's going to be a Duck
Island ice cream called bubble Gum Drop. What's Tiptop's fault

(01:35:34):
for stopping making it? So Duck Island stores nationwide, we'll
start scooping the flavor of the Sunday Day before the
chocolate block reaches the shelves. I don't know how many
Duck Island shops there are around the country. Would there
be three? I think it's kind of Hamilton and christ
Church might have that wrong enough for me sixteen to eleven.
If you want to talk on air, that's the plan.
I'm pretty sure I just felt another after shock too. Well,

(01:35:56):
I'm not seeing that on I'm not seeing that on
equin Z. At the stage bell Keep reported on that
fourteen to eleven. Eviden's Marcus welcome, but.

Speaker 21 (01:36:07):
Evening, Yes, it's good anything evening nice and calm, nice,
shaky here beautifully calm. VHF forecast has been down for
the last month and a half.

Speaker 6 (01:36:20):
Does anybody know why?

Speaker 2 (01:36:23):
Who runs that match?

Speaker 21 (01:36:25):
I thought they spent millions on the forecasting system?

Speaker 2 (01:36:31):
Would most people get online? Now?

Speaker 21 (01:36:33):
Well, they're still doing the the wind speeds around the place,
but there's no forecast. It's just handy to just flick
it on, you know, whenever. What do you listen to
that on channel nineteen on VHF. Yeah, like I've listened
to that for the last forty years, but seems to

(01:36:54):
be nothing for the last month and a half.

Speaker 2 (01:36:57):
I'll find out where I can find out for you.
So it's just stopped.

Speaker 21 (01:37:00):
Yeah, Well, at one stage they weren't even doing the
wind speeds around the place, like they got cobble chain all.

Speaker 4 (01:37:07):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:37:08):
Theory, Oh, that's a classic that broadcasters and all the places.

Speaker 21 (01:37:11):
Yeah, so that even stopped at one stage, and I
see that's back on, but still no forecast.

Speaker 2 (01:37:18):
I'll see what I can find out for you. Evan,
thank you. Oh wait ten with eighty today, Dug, it's Marcus,
good evening you.

Speaker 9 (01:37:25):
Let's just tell you.

Speaker 6 (01:37:26):
But I don't know about the old guest mate. So,
so what you've got is that like depending on what
grade of fuel you buy, it aren't like whether you
buy ninety eighty five.

Speaker 4 (01:37:37):
Or or.

Speaker 6 (01:37:40):
So if it's if it's ninety one, it's sort of
like a lower grade. Then you get to your ninety
five and in ninety six, which is the high grade.
And depending on what grade you get, it's got the
amount of different amount of ethanol in it. So ethanol's
like it'll bring faster, so lower the grade or ethanol
in it, so it be and quicker.

Speaker 2 (01:37:59):
Because some people see that even the ninety on at
different stations has different editives and it does vary.

Speaker 6 (01:38:05):
Well, then maybe try to now you talk to someone
from the guests something, but like yeahs a rule, it's
sort of like you know, the more is isanol, the
faster it will burn, Like you get more than for
the back to list is And so if you paid
for like ninety five, like a premium grade petrol, you've
got more picture than is andal. So you get a
bit of spark, a bit of a bit of confession.

Speaker 8 (01:38:26):
So yeah, more.

Speaker 2 (01:38:27):
But the modern cars don't need that, do they.

Speaker 6 (01:38:29):
Well, the modern cars need to be using like ninety five.

Speaker 2 (01:38:33):
Oh, I thought they were all ninety one, the modern ones.
I thought that was just the old stuff.

Speaker 6 (01:38:36):
It's the older cars like this is ninety one, Like
anything pre like two thousand, two thousand and nineteen eighty seven,
you have already net on ninety one. In anything like
after like twenty twenty five or even like twenty twenty,
you'd sort of want and running on like ninety five.

Speaker 25 (01:38:54):
Oh, kind of.

Speaker 2 (01:38:55):
I thought the opposite was true.

Speaker 6 (01:38:57):
The higher the number that the higher then, and so
you've got more petrol rather than isanol. So you're bringing
us ethanol over peaceful.

Speaker 2 (01:39:09):
What have they made cars more efficient?

Speaker 18 (01:39:11):
I have no.

Speaker 6 (01:39:12):
Ideas by electrics.

Speaker 2 (01:39:15):
I see the old hybrids. They're the old Toyota rev
you can't bony for two years, have all sold out.
But thanks for that. Nice to hear from you, Dan.
A night away from eleven, Marcus till twelve. Any chance
of getting any leftover knife stick and I need thirteen,
will play the extra thirteen dollars for the vegetable knife.
They don't deliver groceries to buy yet, no chance. We're
just gonna get Mark his stickers and then we might
do something else. It's all about Mark at the stage.

(01:39:37):
He's the guy I promised, and by the way, none
have arrived. Someone said, if Witkers really wanted to be
one of MW Zumans's most love brands, they ready to
bring back the k bar. I'm not just saying that
because I'm a dentist as well. Thank you. How could
they get rid of that good ideas above this station?
That's my take on that one. Oh we've got Rugby
tomorrow too, haven't we know? We've got Rugby. We've got
Rugby on Saturday. We won't ever sweepstake tomorrow night. Rest

(01:39:59):
assured we're not going to tap out the show with that.
I can promise you that, although I am looking forward
to it, is it wrong? I sometimes hope that who
do have Eden parget? I'm sick of them going on
about it. Marcus felt that good day. Marcus felt that
quake solidly and the bead and everything's shook in my
apartment and in central on a totally unready to note.

(01:40:20):
People are talking about pork and beef Mint's blend because
of the rising cost of meat, and people have been
trying to come up for a name for it, wondering
what it should be called. Some people say it's walk.
I think it should be burke beef pork burke or yeah,
that'd be a better name for me. My car is
in this and X Trail twenty twelve years is ninety Yeah,
I just used ninety five. I thought it was the
older cars that used ninety five. I'm not really a

(01:40:41):
mechanical kind of a guy. That's not my wheelhouse. I
kind of glaze over a bit with car stuff. I
know that people are right into it, but yeah, not
for me. Be in touch if you want to talk
it this or anything else. After the quake. How are
you going with the football? People?

Speaker 4 (01:40:57):
Not?

Speaker 2 (01:40:58):
Good?

Speaker 3 (01:40:58):
Was it?

Speaker 2 (01:40:59):
I didn't watch it? I felt yeah, and I'm glad
I didn't. Cruz Beckham wins praise for consoling deavast to
dad with a heartfelt hug. Oh, for goodness sake, just
get your family back together. Stop this kind of performative
applause of your team. Try to be crazy. Although I
think the coach, the German that coaches the English team,

(01:41:20):
has taken on the chin and said it was his fault.
Played too defensively. Oh well make the big calls. Wayne
Rooney's teed into him for asking for trouble with his substitutions.
So now the British media are fiercely turning on him.
So yep, there is the now Mick Jagger looking deflated
as Argentina scores winning goal. They're all there, goodness, that's happening.

(01:41:44):
It's all the talk of England. It's finally happening. I
guess they're just waking up now, are they. Yeah, so
they would have gone to bed and it's morning there
now is it would be a nighttime game for them.
I guess that's the way it's going to work. Five
away from eleven o'clock Heatil twelve. If you just joining,
there's been a big quake in Fiordland. A five point nine.
It's been downgraded to it was originally a six point three,

(01:42:05):
widely felt. It's not the reading, it's how widely felt
it was and it was widely felt. But I can
tell you how many people reporters feeling it because I
can go on to that onto the website and it
still as a six point three There eighteen and a
half thousand people reported feeling it on their website. Even
someone on the Chatham Islands felt it. I've never seen
an earthquake fell on the Channam Islands before. Twenty people

(01:42:28):
called it extreme, twenty two people called it severe, three
and City four called it strong, two five nine are
called it moderate, nine oh one two called it light
and all that information gets but we never got on
a lud. I thought they had worked out the phones.
The phones would tell us when the earthquake was going
to hit. That was quite exciting technology. But they've gone
quiet on that. So that's happening. Rugby League second half

(01:42:49):
started a very very very violent game. A lot of fights.
Twelve eight pen with over Brisbane. Everyone's been involved, Harrigan, Ezra,
the lot. They've all had a bit of fistycuffs on it.
Even the old pen with fullback who you never see
getting involved in fights. He was hitting someone. Astonishing. If

(01:43:10):
I'll tell you who was involved with the folks, I
was watching it. But yes, let me tell you a
bit about that. Who was in the fight. Dylan Edwards,
he was in a staush with pain hearts as well.
Everyone was getting involved. Pat Carahan was involved. It was
fairly full on there for a while. He Is Raman
was involved, Adam Reynolds was involved. What it was about.

(01:43:31):
There's a few bit of bad blood there. But yes,
email text if you want to, and I'll keep you
update of here till twelve o'clock tonight. And the Civil
Defense website is still down, so it all takes a
five point nine quake to put the website down. That's
not resilience, is it. Yep, not resilience at all. Now
let me think of anything else I can. I'll just
get rid of the final hour of people. But yeah,

(01:43:51):
we are going to be off here in Southland after
midnight on the AM frequency, so that's something you probably
need to be aware of. And Roman will be on
after midnight tonight. That's what everything I've got for you.
So yes, just see on the I just see on
the usual only Herald facebook page is still saying there's
an evacuation noticed that's probably needs to be removed. Actually,

(01:44:14):
let me think out how I can work that one out.
I guess there's trouble on Facebook postings up and they
stay there. But yeah, anyway, just coming up to the news.
If you want to talk big after the news, we'll
look for a topic, can see what we can find.
But you get in touch if you want to. There's
anything else you want to mention? Good Oh, eight hundred
eighty ten eighty an email Marcus at us talk z'db
dot co dot nz'd be nice to hear from you.

(01:44:36):
So yeah, and looking forward to your calls for the
final also talking petrol for all my sins. Anything goes,
feel free to call. My name is Marcus here until
twelve romance along at midnight tonight, but funnyutn' we started
talking about fuel there We's be about two hours talking
about the quake and getting all the information sorted with that.
Now we've moved on from that and I don't know
where we are. So if you want to talk about
fuel or the quake or the knives, that's the plan. People.

(01:45:00):
My name is Marcus. Good evening, I wait one hundred
and eighty ten eighty and nine nine to t you
want to be a part of it? Chuckle, your texts
through also too. Yeah, triasity, said Marcus. Imagine if that
quake wasn't as deep fifty two k's, if it was shallow,
would have shaken the whole country. Answer on the Marine

(01:45:21):
radio forever and the short answer VHF Radio Channel nine
marine weather forecasts and New zeal To have stopped because
Maritime New Zealand and LINDS have discontinued older coastal MSI
broadcasts and shifted all official marine forecasts to newer channel
and digital services. The legacy Channel nine forecast was part
of the old coastal radio schedule that has now been retired.

(01:45:41):
What replaced Channel nine forecast? You now get official marine
forecasts from Maritime Radio ZLM on HF SSB, VHF Channel
sixteen and local harbor channels for urgent ms I only
met service marine webin app NAVARREA fourteen Coastal Warning SEELIGONLNDS
local harbor masters for inshure conditions. Thanks to co pilot

(01:46:05):
cheers Richard, thank you, Derek, it's Marcus.

Speaker 15 (01:46:08):
Good evening, Garry, Hey you going good things, Derek cod
you're talking about fuels, telling about fuel qualities. Yes, they're
all the same. If you're talking about ninety one, there's
a digital standard for ninety one octane. You can't go
into the market and as it passes that standard. So
whether you buy it from packing, say from Celtics, from Mobile,

(01:46:29):
from z it's all the same quality. The only difference
is when it goes into the truck. The individual or
companies sometimes put an additive in, but that additive is
not part of the standard. It's something that the old
companies do for promotion.

Speaker 2 (01:46:47):
Don't it promote it much? Because I'm not really that
aware of additives? Is it something they stop doing a
bit more now because the margins are so low.

Speaker 15 (01:46:55):
Yeah, they're all back to off mobile talk about synergy
synergy fuel. That's that's their talk of their talk about additives.
But Celtics used.

Speaker 24 (01:47:04):
To do it.

Speaker 15 (01:47:05):
BP used to, but I'm not sure whether they do now.
I've been out of the system ten years, but thirty
years at mass Impoint Refinery, and every fuel in New
Zealand has to have a standard sure and it has
to pass the standard. Every time they move the fuel,
they tested again for the standard quality. So even if

(01:47:28):
now with Marster Point shut they're buying from overseas, it
still has to meet the New Zealand standard to bring
it into the country.

Speaker 2 (01:47:35):
Did the editives drive customer behavior much?

Speaker 15 (01:47:38):
Not really, No, I mean it's just an extra to
the standard. The fuel still meets the standard, understand, but
there's just a promotional thing by the oil companies. And
the ninety one is ninety one octane, which is performance related.
Ninety five is ninety five octane, which is performance related.
So where you were talking earlier on about ninety five

(01:48:00):
octane and ninety one going into the most of the
common cars or modern cars. Yes, it's okay. I mean
my car won't say what it is. It is a
two point five and I use ninety one. It works, okay,
there's no damminch done. It just beans performance in a
little bit lower. If you put ninety five in, then

(01:48:21):
you'll get the standard, the better quality performance.

Speaker 2 (01:48:27):
So what was the purpose of most What's the main
purpose of.

Speaker 15 (01:48:30):
The editives top end lubrication. So it just they talk
about top end lubrication. So when the engine's cold, the
rings all dry. When the pistons start working, they pull
the oil up from the sun the engine, so that
helps the fuel and the engine not grutting dry. So

(01:48:52):
it helps when the fuel goes in top end lubrication
and that sort of thing.

Speaker 2 (01:48:57):
Yeah, it was a good excuse. I can understand that.

Speaker 21 (01:49:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 15 (01:49:00):
Yeah, So when these young buggers get down the road
early in the morning and they rev it up and
take off the engine still cold, there's no oil on
the top end until they get down the road.

Speaker 2 (01:49:09):
A bit brilliant, Okay, I appreciate that, Derek, thank you.

Speaker 3 (01:49:14):
Well.

Speaker 2 (01:49:14):
They had that woman describe her car on the first hour,
and then she did the old She called a super
duper car. Eh, super dupa. I thought it was nice expression.
You don't hear that much. Someone's going to get a
super dupicr Hit'll twelve, Sheryl Marcus.

Speaker 31 (01:49:26):
It's good evening, Marcus. I would like to change the
subject for a moment, and the Lord, it's about a
hair brush, right, yeah, oh yes, I brought a new
hair brush a couple of weeks ago, one of these
round ones, and ladies will know what they are, and

(01:49:50):
they're very hard to clean, you know, to get the
hair out of the the bristol.

Speaker 2 (01:49:55):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, yes.

Speaker 31 (01:49:58):
So I tried everything and nothing worked, and then I
saw what on my shelf, My two dollars fifty. It's
called a backscratcher, and you get them from the two
dollar shops. And I tried that along the bristles of
the hair brush, just like magic the hair brush, and

(01:50:22):
look brand new.

Speaker 2 (01:50:24):
Goodness, what a great devinsion.

Speaker 31 (01:50:26):
Yeah, I couldn't believe it. I had some friends around
today and I told them about it, and they're all
going to go and get this two dollars little backscratcher.
It's only about a inch long. It's like a little rate,
you know. Yeah. And I just ran along the lines
of the bristles and every bit the hair came out.

(01:50:51):
It was just like brand new. So I thought that
would be a good thing for people that find hard
cleaning hair brushes.

Speaker 2 (01:50:58):
It's a great suggestion. Shows three kind of you to
share that with a group, and I think we're all
great for that. I appreciate that greatly. Thank you. Oh wow,
Tracy and ver Cargo sending forty five stamps if I want,
wait till Frid, I can send sixty. There we go down.
We're on the board. How ma does he need?

Speaker 4 (01:51:26):
Is?

Speaker 2 (01:51:26):
How many knives does he want? Okay, anyway, they're.

Speaker 24 (01:51:33):
On the way.

Speaker 2 (01:51:35):
The knives are coming, Mark, the knives are coming, Pete, Marcus,
welcome Mark's I'm.

Speaker 7 (01:51:43):
Not on the heir brush. I don't know. Don't put
coolism so and't worry about that one. Yeah, just regarding
the fuel by that general he just before, he's pretty
much answered it all. But have most cars now they
can all run on ninety one. But if you in
doubt those cars, they have a little sticker and not
always at the mood you have a little stick of
other where you put the fuel on. You know, with

(01:52:04):
the Kappa's there's quite often they have a little stick
of what you've winning. But but the guys see, you
can pretty much run anything.

Speaker 19 (01:52:10):
Now.

Speaker 7 (01:52:10):
It's up to you if you want to go higher
ninety ones. Pretty much you can putt ninety one on
most vehicles, I think not all of them, but pretty much.
It's up to you if you want to. But a
gentleman said, you want to put the higher grade in
your keel, it's going to cost you more.

Speaker 8 (01:52:21):
While would you do that, you'd be mad.

Speaker 2 (01:52:23):
You're a good day, Pete.

Speaker 7 (01:52:25):
Yeah, to watch the old soccer of the day at
the friend of House.

Speaker 2 (01:52:30):
Any any any whining English people afterwards? Were they upset
that is in.

Speaker 7 (01:52:35):
You've plumb with a quite a few of English people
in this province, and there's a lot of English either.
They all handle look very well and I think in
the day the old deserve to win the Argentinas though
they're just they are just an extra notch up. And
that joker, Messy man, he's good. He just sees such
a good play. He's probably about the best player in
the world. I think I listened some of the commentary

(01:52:55):
on the Google and that, and he's one of them,
thirty nine year old. He's doing pretty good.

Speaker 22 (01:53:01):
You know.

Speaker 7 (01:53:01):
He's going up about David Dickham and all that sort
of thing. Whether he body blows old David out.

Speaker 4 (01:53:06):
Of the wall.

Speaker 2 (01:53:06):
He's extraordinary, really, isn't he. She's a pocket rocket short
little I saw on there with a photo of him
against the English captain.

Speaker 7 (01:53:12):
He's not all very much notice that. But when after
watching those those previews after tonight, and I didn't when
you're game so fast, when the game has been played,
you know, you don't actually follow at all. But when
you when they actually highlighted those shots that he lined
it up for the other guys to kick it in.
He is and he is basically the number one player

(01:53:35):
and that team they rely on him, and he just
set those two goals up. He shit those up. Well,
then get those goals to get those those those those
goal shots and the goal post. He's a brilliant player.
Does he knows we would have put the ball. He
knows that there's enough guys there, we have a punt
and they've paid off. He's he's a brilliant player. You

(01:53:55):
can't deny that. And I reckon it's going to be
a very good game come Monday. I reckon. I wouldn't
want to put money on. I reckon there'll be a
really close game, like the Spanish are very good and
watching that game today, it'll be that could go either
either way. I wouldn't want to say that. There'd be
the team pretty much though, of our Egal team, and
I think the one that's gonna win, that's going to
be that one who's just got a little bit better.

(01:54:17):
The's gonna be bugger all in it.

Speaker 2 (01:54:18):
Many Argentinians at the bar this morning.

Speaker 7 (01:54:21):
No, I don't think I think there were anything. I
don't think I couldn't see any of the other day
that there was a few there with the with the French.
It's a few French. She's here, but they went.

Speaker 3 (01:54:30):
No.

Speaker 7 (01:54:30):
I don't think there were any of the other day
of Argentina. I don't think there was one. I don't
think it didn't make any sort of normal as a
few and the public know they are there. But no,
I don't thank no. I don't think. Rather that the
team goes today.

Speaker 2 (01:54:42):
Who do you? Who'd you? Who'd you say you're picking
to win?

Speaker 7 (01:54:45):
I want I want the Spanish to win.

Speaker 2 (01:54:49):
The TB has got the favorite star sixty five against
the ages five.

Speaker 7 (01:54:54):
Yeah, I think the Spanish they probably could do it,
but they got that messy in the other team. And
he's as long as he's in the team all the
way through the game, he doesn't he doesn't get a
yellow card or something, yea, I and he'sn't that to you.
And he's the organ grinder. And I reckon of the
I wouldn't say either TSB, I reckon. They will be
very hard to say.

Speaker 2 (01:55:15):
He's going to want to go on your pet thinks
that Philips Marcus good Evening don't.

Speaker 25 (01:55:20):
Know, because I'm curious, do you do a lot of
people in England have like a second house or like
a house in the country or something that they never
go to, or maybe the appearance went to in the
nineteen sixties or something, but they've never been to, because
that would explain to me why every four years they
all sing It's coming home, It's coming home, and then
it doesn't. Yeah, I mean that, you know, they all

(01:55:45):
grow up having this other house and you know, are
we're going to go there, We're going to go there,
and we don't. But they know the house exists, but
you know they've said of never been there. I mean,
can you really if you had a second house and
other people stayed there more than you, like, a lot
more than you, could you really say it's your house?

Speaker 2 (01:56:02):
I'm hearing you they said. I think that. I think
what they said as the team's coming home, but the
trophy is not coming with them, all right.

Speaker 3 (01:56:12):
See.

Speaker 2 (01:56:12):
I think that's all because of the song. The Lightning
Seeds wrote the song, didn't they It's Coming Home or
the Lightning Seeds?

Speaker 8 (01:56:18):
Yeah, but.

Speaker 25 (01:56:21):
A lot more, a lot more than than England have
seen the cup.

Speaker 2 (01:56:27):
Oh yeah, I thought that the song this time had
become mainly wonder Wall.

Speaker 25 (01:56:31):
Yeah, I'm not sure, but anyway, I just just a
little bit of a little bit of cheeky, like a
little bit cheeky.

Speaker 2 (01:56:39):
Thank you for that felt brilliant, Dan, I've just done
the wrong button on the screens. Get that right again.
I've maximized it. Marcus boarding item for two fifty from
the two dollars shop made me laugh. Yeah, that's quick.
I didn't pick that. Pete can run on anything but
myke car Neid's high octane. Got my sisters and neighbors tickets. Marcus,

(01:57:01):
thank you. We're getting there, guys, we'll get in there.
We're getting there for Pete, not for Pete. From Mark
from a car driving Granny, does the petrol tech need
to be drained of ninety one before starting to use
ninety five? I'd say no. And when I learn on
this show if you've mixed the wrong mix for your
too smoke, it is poured into you f you' and
I even knew how to get rid of it. Now,
I just pour it into your car. That'll sort it out.

(01:57:24):
That'll sort it out, That'll make it all okay in
the car thing in the long run. Hit'll twelve minameers Marcus,
good evening, oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty Well gosh,
we came though after the quake, the excitement of that.
I've never worked on radio when there's been such a
widely felt crak. They say there's going to be strong,
unusual currents, strong and unusual currents. Well, what's a normal

(01:57:50):
feeling current? Speaking of strong and unusual currents the answer
to that, I quite like that song Football's Coming Home.
Wonder Wall is the worst possible song ever. Drunk Pomme
is hagging each other. I like wonder Wall too, although
I think the amazing about wonder Wall is no one
really knew what it was. It was a made up
and no one can describe what as a wonderwall, which

(01:58:12):
I quite liked that. But yeah, I'm heartbroken for the
English because how could you knock their passion for that game.
I know it's different to the South American passion, but
it's an all defining passion for them. Although chet Ai
says a wonderwall as a person who served as your
emotional anchor, source of salvation, or someone you constantly find

(01:58:32):
yourselves thinking about.

Speaker 13 (01:58:35):
Mm hm.

Speaker 2 (01:58:37):
And apparently George Harrison had a song called wonder War Music,
which instantly makes more sense because they were Beatle super fans,
weren't they They only had two good players and the
coach rang out of ideas. Twenty three past eleven. If
you want to talk on em name as Marcus welcome.
Was there an earthquake? I just woke up. Okay for

(01:58:57):
those that just woke up, here is the backstory, and
I can go and find the call if it would
play the damn thing, Dan, the quake happened. I was
talking to Dave at nine to sixteen. Now I was
talking to Dave at nine to twelve. We had two daves.
Was Dave talking about cruise control? I think it was

(01:59:17):
at nine to twelve. I'll give you the audio. I'll
play what actually happens. And anyway, it was a six
point three originally in Milford Sound, so it was an
un It was an uninhabited area pretty much, but there
were some evacuations, but then there weren't. But it was
widely felt right around New Zealand. So the biggest quake
for the year and last year. And here is how

(01:59:39):
it happened. This would be embarrassing for me to listen
to because.

Speaker 17 (01:59:41):
Sort of whetstones on it. You know, I'm not wheatstones,
but they're the same sort.

Speaker 2 (01:59:45):
Of hang on, hang on, he's an earthquake.

Speaker 17 (01:59:48):
Oh goodness, yeah, you and I haven't yet.

Speaker 2 (01:59:52):
No, an und I haven't felt one before. It was
quite a big shock, I can.

Speaker 17 (01:59:57):
It's been said.

Speaker 2 (01:59:59):
It's still shaking. Yeah, so it's quite a big after
shock after what well what I'm still feeling after shocks now?
It's quite a big quake.

Speaker 17 (02:00:10):
Goodness, markers, Yeah, quite a big one. My thoughts going out,
I will survive.

Speaker 2 (02:00:17):
Where's the where's the cash? Well, where's the cash? The
money was saying. It was quite a big quake. So
there we go. Sound even worse I thought it would be,
But I thought Dave was recompassion to it. What do
you say? I said, I said, there's a quake, and
he says, we're What do you say? What was his response, Dave,
what do you say?

Speaker 10 (02:00:36):
Before?

Speaker 3 (02:00:37):
Then?

Speaker 2 (02:00:37):
I said, these are a quake? And then he said
he said where? I said here? That's right. You know
that's a replay people, that's not another quake, that's a replay.

Speaker 12 (02:00:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:00:51):
The lame joke I tried to make was because everyone
goes on about christ Chich they needed cash because of
the f and everyone's got cash for the quakes. So yes,
I was really making light of it. But anyway, that's
the situation. We did well Dave for talking me down
off a lynch. But yeah, so there was a quake.
It was it nine twelve or nine to sixteen? Down
was it nine? It was nine twelve, So that's where

(02:01:12):
that happened. I was only talking to Dave about knives,
and Dave's not getting the smeg knives. He's getting a
temu set, as we all say, probably from the same factory.
I can't imagine smegae made in Gumney anymore, are they anyway?
So that's the situation with the quake widely felt, and

(02:01:32):
there was talk of evacuation. We weren't quite sure what
was going on, and then Seal Defenses website crashed. Then
they did say there was an evacuation noticeding they recan
did that after about fifteen minutes. And the only real oh,
a couple of things about that the airport at Queenstown.
A plane was due to land from Auckland, and they

(02:01:54):
delayed that for half an hour, and the plane did
circles and they checked the airstrip and then they managed
to land the plane just before the ten pm curfew.
Because you can't land after ten in Queenstown. So that happened.
And the other thing was, there's a bridge in Queenstown
called the Edith Cavell. Was she and Nana Amir. I
don't know who Edith Kevill was. There's the Edith Kevil

(02:02:15):
and it's bad, the Edith Kevill Bridge, and that has
been closed for the night so I could check in
the morning that it's okay. She's a nurse, a British
nurse treated wounded soldiers from both sides about discrimination during
the First World War. I don't want a connection with Queenstown.
As I'm reading that now, I think she's just a
good sort. I feel we should know more about her.

(02:02:37):
But she's got a bridge name. Oh she's executed. Oh
that's heartbreaking. She's executed.

Speaker 3 (02:02:42):
Why do I not know this?

Speaker 2 (02:02:43):
Following Kevin's death, countless newspaper articles, pamphlets, images and books
publicized this story. She became an iconic propaganda figure for
military ecruitment in Britain. That's a fascinating story and that's
one I've got no knowledge about at all. So there
we go. And there are Edith Kevell memorials all around
the world. A Stone Memorial at Trafalgar Square, a memory

(02:03:06):
Royal Tower and Alberta, Canada. That Edith Cavill Bridge Arthur's Point,
Queenstown news In and of course we must keep that
bridge there. That's very important that to keep you with
the past. It's a fascinating story. So she is a
huge figure all around the world. A number of movies
have been made about her, music's been made about her,
all sorts of stuff. And that's all news to me.

(02:03:27):
So I apologize we've been ignorant. And that Edith Cavill,
now she must have been caught and killed, arrested, not
for espionage but for war treason anyway. That's so the
bridge is closed, and that's interesting for me because we've
learned all of that twenty out past eleven. Disturbingly, I've
just been on Facebook, and on several Facebook sites people

(02:03:50):
have posted ai shots of damage that hasn't happened from
that quake, with people trying to be funny. I see
on one of the Alexandra websites someone's put a shot
of the Clyde Damn destroyed. None of this has happened.
Someone's also in a shot of the Harriet Pub that's
been destroyed by the quake. But this is all just

(02:04:10):
so just beware of that. A lot of people are idiots,
but I mean they're convincing images, so yes, and this
is the first time I've seen that, so I'm just saying,
next time we get it, you know, we probably can't
tell the difference, so just go to trusted sources. A
lot of idiots out there posting kind of made up shots,
just so you know. Nolina, it's Marcus.

Speaker 10 (02:04:32):
Good evening, Oh, good evening, Marcus.

Speaker 11 (02:04:35):
I'm on the New Zealand site. It shows that for
the last two hours there's been eight earthquakes there at
since the six point three two hours ago, there's been
a total of eight earthquakes there just near t now.

Speaker 2 (02:04:52):
They're all the after shocks, eh, yes, yes.

Speaker 11 (02:04:54):
And they're quite decent after shocks. I'm a christ each person,
so I know what that's like. Yeah, So up until
now there's been eight in total.

Speaker 2 (02:05:06):
The original six points okay, I appreciate that, Noding, thank
you said, original six point three, then a three point
five to three point four, three point four, four point three,
three point five four, three point three, two point three,
and even the aftershocks have been widely felt as well.
Fourteen twelve Brisbane over Pen with seven months left to go,
and that's an exciting finish if you want to go
watch that. Terrible conditions and a lot of biff. Surely
it's Marcus.

Speaker 22 (02:05:26):
Good evening, Hello Marcus.

Speaker 27 (02:05:29):
I'm a woman talking about a man subject, but I
am I have a little bit of knowledge regarding fuel.
We ran some outboard motors like three three hundreds and
once two two hundreds two two fifties, but we were
always told when my husband and I filled the boat,
don't ever go anywhere near anything else other than a

(02:05:52):
BP service station because the BP service station fuel was
kinder on their outboard motors and also kinder to the
actual makings of the engine freend to use. And the
other subject I'd like to talk about is that I
have to put ninety five in my car, and I've

(02:06:15):
been told by a mechanic never changed in ninety one
because your petrol management computers only cope with the ninety
one or the ninety five. Now, whether I know what
I'm talking about, I don't know, but I'm hoping that
some gentlemen will hop in there and talk about the
rom and the dom in the funeral in the petrol

(02:06:38):
because the rom and the dome apparently pay a big
part in the performance of your motor. So, as I said,
I'm a woman and I don't know all the details,
but I do know a few.

Speaker 2 (02:06:50):
And what is the rom in the dom?

Speaker 27 (02:06:52):
The rom in the dom is the makeup of the fuel.
It's kind of the recipe for the fuel. But I
only hear the boys talking about the rom and the DOM.
I don't honestly understand what they are except that they
are part of the fuel makeup.

Speaker 2 (02:07:10):
Okay, yeah, I don't know anything about yep. Okay, I'll
find it. Yeah, okay, should he thank you the rom
in the Dome twenty six to twelve, Marcus till the
end the rom and the Dom. But you just watch
on Facebook on the idiot's placing silly stuff. A Sumner
has an elder care village called the Edith Cavill Village.
Thank you. Oh this is interesting too. So it's a

(02:07:31):
big thing for we remember Anzac Day on the bridge
you get shut at midday for ten minutes.

Speaker 15 (02:07:36):
Max.

Speaker 2 (02:07:37):
We have a lone pipe of playing across the bridge
in both directions. We then play the national anthem and
the last pace post from a PA system from Masa
and Lyndall's house. It reverberates through the valley. It's very
awesome and a great tribute to Edith. I had no idea,
so thank you for that information. Marcus. I was nineteen
to nineteen fifty six working in a hotel in Tottonga
ad accommodation in a house up the road in the

(02:07:58):
morning of the and this morning in the morning having
a shower and an earthquake happened. I had no idea
what to do. It was scary. Did it last long?
I have never forgotten and when here of an earthquake,
I remember being nude in an earthquake and tott long
and fifty nine. That's from Sarah, Bloody stupid pricks, grow up, Sonya.
That's about the people posting idiot stuff. Edith Cavell has
buried at Norwich Cathedral. I've seen her grave. Thank you

(02:08:21):
for that. I'm in dneed and sent from the poor
Indian family live above me. Knocked on my door, wide
eyed and terrified. After the quake. They were ready to
run away. I hate to assure them they'd be okay,
but I'd run away with them if it was a
big one. Made me think where would I run? Decided
Zinger Rugby Club up the hill would be my best idea.
Thank you for that, Marcus. My phone alerted me via

(02:08:42):
Google as the Quaker Kurdaman. Tiano didn't know that that
you'd gotten alert, so it's good that it's working there.
Fourteen twelve in the Rugby League, Brisbane over Penrith three
forty nine left. This is I think, yeah, I think
Riss Walsh has played well. I just heard a little
bit of the commentary during was when the news was on,
so he's had big ups. But it's terrible conditions. It's

(02:09:03):
for every wet. It'd be great for Penn to lose
just from the Warriors. It wouldn't really, but it just
means that we'd be closer to the top. But you know,
I've got no faith in the Broncos. They could lose
this in the dying gasps, just like the English did.
They've just lost the ball lazily down their end when
they were pressing them. So three minutes left to go.
I'll play the commercial so I can watch the end

(02:09:25):
of the game has concluded. There has been a captain's
challenge with the penrith Rite down on Brisbane's try line.
So they're just playing that back and forth, back and ford,
back and forth. Twenty to twelve. We are going off
air in Southland on the AM at twelve o'clock to
do some maintenance.

Speaker 8 (02:09:41):
So you can go to.

Speaker 2 (02:09:45):
You can go to the FM one oh four point
six or iHeartRadio. So that's the situation. Someone said, Ron
is research octane number measure under relatively light load, lower
speed test conditions. This is the octane rating usually see
displayed at the fuel pump in many countries. And there's

(02:10:05):
motor octane umber is more measured under more severe conditions.
Thanks that I had no idea. It's twenty to twelve
oh eight one hundred and eighty to eighty nineteen ninety
to de text Way and it's Marcus good evening.

Speaker 3 (02:10:20):
Marcus more important subject Lotto right, the new power rules
that are coming in from September. I mean they've done
their research and they said more people want to want
the winning to become harder, so they're going to put
fourteen Powerberle numbers instead of ten after September. Their research
is it more that people want it to be harder,

(02:10:43):
so it has to be struck at sixty instead of fifty. Yeah,
but I mean, I'm pretty sure it's going to go
to sixty every time.

Speaker 2 (02:10:50):
I think they want the hype of the big amounts
because that gets all that publicity in. People then that
wouldn't onally buy lotto start thinking, well, that's a stupid amount.
I'll buy a ticket. I'm one of those people, the.

Speaker 3 (02:11:01):
People who buy just every week since lotto started, we
just won't buy a ticket.

Speaker 2 (02:11:06):
You're the addicts. They've got you anyway, they.

Speaker 3 (02:11:09):
Haven't got they haven't. They haven't got me because once
and I won't take a powerball. I'll just take an
ordinary lot.

Speaker 2 (02:11:14):
Of But you're still you'll still spend the same each month,
won't you.

Speaker 3 (02:11:18):
No, I just won't take any powerbul because powerboll costs
twice as much as as a lotto. But I was
just wondering, who do they research? Because who wants it
to be harder to win?

Speaker 2 (02:11:28):
Well, you don't know if they do research.

Speaker 3 (02:11:30):
That's what I rang them up, and I've already talked
to them. They said their research showed that people want
it to be bigger.

Speaker 2 (02:11:36):
They say that, would you believe that?

Speaker 3 (02:11:38):
I don't believe that nobody wants them. It's like the
power companies say, we've done research.

Speaker 18 (02:11:42):
You pound them to go up.

Speaker 3 (02:11:44):
Who did you ring, mister? I need to customer service,
the customer service at lotto and they said that they
have done research of research. Company said that people want
it to be harder to win. So it gets this.
But thenly putting out from fifty to sixty, I can
understand if they made it they put an extra four
Powerboy numbers in, if they made it terminated at one
hundred million, then that that would make sense. But have

(02:12:06):
only gone from fifty to sixty, and that makes it
harder to win five, sixty seven, eight, Well it used
to be four, but now it will be for starting
at five. But it's going to make it hard to
win five or six or seven because you've got the numbers.

Speaker 4 (02:12:18):
You know.

Speaker 3 (02:12:18):
It's just well, all I can see is it's just
going to make people who just buy it every week,
they're just not going to buy. What's the point that's fifty?

Speaker 2 (02:12:27):
If that happened to change it back, I would have mentioned.
But they will have they will have got their marketing
people to toe.

Speaker 3 (02:12:33):
But they haven't. Who do they market to the playground?

Speaker 2 (02:12:38):
They have so much information. I mean, it's a multi
billion dollar but that have so much information about how
much people are prepared to pay.

Speaker 3 (02:12:44):
Your people are prepared to pay when it gets But
the trouble is when it gets to sixty, it'll definitely
terminate at sixty, and then there's going to be a
thousand people sharing the top price because you can only
get your four numbers or five numbers in the powerfull
and so you're not getting the bigg them out by yourself.
Because everyone who doesn't buy it normally, they'll buy it.
And because they can win those four numbers and.

Speaker 2 (02:13:05):
The power boll, why will more people be sharing it?

Speaker 3 (02:13:08):
Because it's terminates at sixty, So people will buy it
because they know it has to be won so they
can they can put four numbers and the powerball and
they can win with four numbers and the power boar
instead of six with the powerball. So because it terminates
it but it would make sense if they made it
terminating at one hundred million and they put four new
power bolls, but they've only put it up ten million,

(02:13:28):
and they made it's making it harder to win five
sixty seven eight million. Nobody's going to win it's going
to go to sixty every time. I don't quite understand
why they don't.

Speaker 2 (02:13:37):
See that you ever won anything, Wayne, Well, I'm never
going to win it.

Speaker 3 (02:13:41):
Now when they bring hing, what.

Speaker 2 (02:13:43):
Might be time to stop playing?

Speaker 3 (02:13:45):
Oh no, no, I most of the time only played
just for the ordinary one, just for a million. But
I mean occasionally you take it, you know, take the powerboy,
because I mean, once you're getting over eighty, you don't
have many opportunities to make that sort of money, do you.

Speaker 2 (02:13:59):
You over eighty?

Speaker 11 (02:14:01):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (02:14:01):
Are you sounding a young man.

Speaker 3 (02:14:03):
To eighty in February? So that the plan was that
I was going to win even five sixty seven million,
But I mean that's all going out the window once
they bring in four extra numbers. I mean that the
same number you've taken all these years. What are you
going to do then there's eleven, twelve, thirteen, and fourteen
coming in with a new number. To me, I'm not

(02:14:24):
sure why there's not a protest and people aren't getting
up in arms about it.

Speaker 2 (02:14:28):
All you are getting number of arms.

Speaker 3 (02:14:32):
If I'm only talking to you, makes no difference what
I say.

Speaker 2 (02:14:35):
I'll be listening now.

Speaker 3 (02:14:38):
I don't think they really care because they they don't
want anyone to win, but definitely people are going to win.
When it gets to sixty million, it terminates, so there's
definitely going to be maybe two hundred people that want
to share that prize. And when that happens, you know,
it's going to take four months to get to sixty million.
Every time to bring me with.

Speaker 2 (02:14:56):
That happens, Wayne, let me know and say I told
you so, let's wait. Thank you for that. By the way,
the Broncos have one forteen twelve an exciting game right
to the end. They look ecstatic too because they're well
down the bottom of the top. Were not the bottom
of the table the world and the bottom end of
the table, so they've got a The Broncos could get
into the final. I just don't look what the updated

(02:15:17):
letter is for the NRL. Well, they lock got trip
has been updated, but I'm looking at that now. The
Broncos might have gone from thirteenth up to eleventh with that,
but I don't know if that's been updated. So yeah,
Penworth have lost Fiery Fire and that was a rematch
of last year's preiminary final. I think.
