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

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Good evening and welcome it's Tuesday, Marcus. I am here
till twelve. Good. I hope it's enjoyable. Stay for you
until midnight, whoever long you decide to stay tuned in. Look,
I need to say something, and I don't know why
I'm saying it. I am not a huge fan of
you world. I mean, they're a supermarket, and that's good.

(00:34):
We need super make so we need food, and we
need food stacked on shelves so we can access it
and so we can eat it. I don't love the
fact that they have all these hyped giveaways. I think
that it demeans us as a people that we will

(00:56):
get obsessed and hooked on a scheme that makes no
financial sense whatsoever. We spend a fortuneng groceries to buy
in a to us stair as we get something for free,
which will be plates or knives or something like that. However,
I know that once these things start, they can't stop,
and the hypeer is huge. I need to tell you
that someone has let me know that the Smeg knives

(01:19):
are back, So look at me I'm promoting it so
from the May sorry, from July thirteen. That's a famous day.
Why is that famous? I think July fourteen's famous, isn't anyway?
Does it best steel day? Can you hear the people
sing singing the songs of angry men? Oh that's not
best steelo. That's something different, isn't it. It is the

(01:39):
music of the people who will not be slaves again.
As Jean Valjean. I saw Rob Guest on the wall,
which was good and lamers. But yes, it's not about
the It's about the earlier event anyway, Jean Valjean, the
French convict on his road to redemption. Anyway, I don't

(02:00):
even know where I've gone with that. But it wasn't
the French Revolution. It was before that. But anyway, where
am I going with that? Nowhere? But what's happening is
that New World have relaunched the knives. So it's May
thirteen to get your knives. So get in there quick,
because what happened with those damn plates and the brasier

(02:22):
is everyone's running out of the ring and say, look
who's got a brazier. I've been to Papa mar, I've
been to Petatoto. I've been to. I can't find enough
coupons the round of brass. So, for God's sake, getting quick,
if you're going to get into it, get all in.
The knives look really good. They are those sort of
knives where it's all in one. The handlers metal as well.

(02:46):
I imagine they'd be very hot to get out of
the dishwasher because all that heat would be absorbed in
that handle. I'd use tongs to get them out of
the dishwasher. By the ways, anyone thought of running classes
for the dishwasher, because I tell you what, boy oh boy,
I could go on about that. What seems to be
the no, no was leaving stuff in there for a
second round. Anyhow, So the knives are coming, and I

(03:13):
imaginely go online, you buy them all for fifty bucks together.
But you know your gos will go and do you.
You'll lose your agency, you lose your freedom a shop
where you want, you'll be going to. You'll be going
to New World and buying them time. But good on you.
There's a vegetable knie, a utility knife, a santoku knife
to cut your Santoku's have got no idea what that
is for a meat knife and the kiri knife and

(03:33):
a chief's knife. So you want to be budding Mitchell
and star shifts, this is your answer. So it's all
happening with the knives a new World. I'm like a
New World ambassador. Yet I hold them in disdain. So
what's that about? But I'm telling you so a Santoku
knive is not for rocking chopping. It's a straight at edge.

(03:55):
There we go. So I don't I mean the Japanese
are big on knives. I think that's because they samuraize.
Am I right there? I think I've got that one right.
Germans steel and Japanese knives. Anyway, that's what's happening. So
don't cut to me and complain. But I will help
you because I love you so much. If you miss
out on coupons or want to swap coupons, I will
do that for you. I don't love you well, but
I love you and I know that you love to

(04:16):
get those knives for free. So it's all about to start.
It starts on the thirteenth of July, which is the
day before Best Steel Day. That's right, that's what mab
that's what my side what My side thing was, so
there we go. So you've got two weeks, so I
wouldn't shop for while going there on the Tuesday, on

(04:38):
the Monday and spend get most of your coupons straight away.
That'll be my suggestion. That is not the topic for tonight,
because what would people say, who are spik knives? Don't
even that good? They seem to be quite good knives schmives.
I imagine no one's used their brazen much anyway, have they.
But that's happening. It's happening in two weeks time, so

(04:59):
you are warned here first goodness, that's happening. Marc's here
in Stoe Nelson. New World is great and superstaff, but
this awful new card should be wiped. I've got mine.
I've got my card plus loving it Marcus. New World
is where the shoppers who want to pay for their
trolleys to be returned should go. You know what I

(05:22):
don't like about Peck and Save. I don't like a
banana box. What a useless box that is with no
bottom to it? How many times you got excited that
there's a box there and it's a banana box and
it's no use at all? I are a particular loathing
for banana boxes. Why is that big old because you
put the yeah, it's it's for ventilation, I think anyway,
So that's what's happening. The knives are coming. I with

(05:44):
a couple of topics I want to talk about tonight.
I don't know how will they go. You see, was
an audience to be slightly scattered with your topics tonight
or what you were prepared to talk about. Today we
celebrate seventy five years of international flight from christ Church
and the first flight was a plane that went to
Melbourne and it took six and a half hours, which

(06:05):
I thought was really interesting. I'll tell you the name
of the plane and for sept when I find the
screenshot for that. So there we go. We're celebrating flight.
It was a DC four Skymaster. It went once a week,
a four engine propeller aircraft slurrugh noise in daise jets
with space for forty passengers, so forty passages. That took

(06:26):
six and a half hours. They've got mountain. That was
the first international flight from the South Island. So things
are looking up. Now you can go from Queenstown and
Dunedin and you can go to the Gold Coast. So
we are talking about you might have been someone that
went in those original times to Melbourne seventy five years ago.
And the other story that I love as a mother

(06:48):
ditches her daughter. A mother gave her daughter some tough
love by flying on a holiday without her after the
thirty one year old forgot her passport. Cheryl recounted a
decision to leave her daughter behind and go on the
holiday the two of them had planned to take together.
That planned a trip to the Turks and Caicos that
was meant to be nostalgic. But when a daughter realized
she'd have to passport in New York apartment with no

(07:10):
time to get to Boston, where a two would fly
out from the mother faced a tough decision. She went
and I say, good honor, so tough love and teaching
your child a lesson. And I don't want this to
go down a cruel way, But what is the harshest
thing you have done to your child to teach them
a lesson? And think a bit about that and let

(07:31):
me know and did it work? So we don't talk
much about parenting for obvious reasons, because I don't want
to be judged on my parenting in Gose she probably
could judge me. But the cruelest thing you've done to
your child to teach them a lesson, But in a
cruel way. I don't want to be a way where
we actually feel upset by what you say, but where
there's method to your madness and the cruel thing that

(07:51):
you have done. Have a think about that. I mean,
who hasn't burned Easter eggs? Have we done that? I
feel bad about some of the things that I've done
into the fire with those come on. One of the
things that you have done to teach your child a lesson,
But that's quite good. To go to the airport and

(08:11):
your daughter forgets your passport, just go without her. That's fantastic.
So they are the three starters for ten Tonight. The
smeg Knives, seventy five years of international flight from the
South Island on the Skymaster, and the cruelest thing you've
done to your child to teach them a lesson. So
it makes a really good point that six and a
half hours to Melbourne and this day and age probably

(08:33):
seems like a good thing because it wouldn't have been
the theffing around now these days. It's probably six and
a half hours to get off the ground, and you're
probably right. It was probably quicker the DC four Skymaster
forty passengers, mind you, I'll tell you what you see
those shots of the old planes, it might have only

(08:53):
been forty people, but they're probably wedding down the space.
Waitresses were probably wedding down the aisle a trolley and
they're probably carving up a roast ham. You look at
all those shots of the early meals on international flights,
that's what they're doing. Do you like serving Christmas ham
at your table anyway? Probably left over from the Korean War,

(09:14):
would it be? We've got the sky? So these are
great topics, so take your pecking through you come. There's
something else you want to chuck into the mix. Good
I took the insdet away for two weeks, which became
three weeks when they moaned about it. Good on your Colleena,
go Colleen Marcus. Banana box is useless. Yeah, I hate
banana boxes. They have sticky residue on the most and

(09:37):
the ass falls out of them. The mother's done the
right thing, bitch. She never forgets the passport again. So yes,
ways to teach your children important lessons, but without hitting them. Please,
this is non contact sort of stuff if you want
to go down that aisle. But yes, and this is
parenting an adult child too. With the past. I think
they're an audactionary look at the age. Already someone's making

(09:59):
a text about where was the father and about absentee parents.
We're not that sort of show. Looks like I'm not
a speculation, A lot more speculation. I mentioned it yesterday
that that Michael Laws coming back from New Zealand first
to one run in White Tacky. It's where they've got
the big rate increases. But yeah, that's a lot more
speculation about that today. He hasn't denied it, just as

(10:20):
he doesn't comment on rumors. Godness, you'd be terrified if
you were running against him. He's fearless, that guy. Anyway.
If this one guy that's just desperate for an argument
in the fight, the debate and an election would be
Michael Laws. Goodness, yep, you would want to run against.
I feel sorry for the incumbent anyway, if he does run.

(10:40):
Eight hundred and eighty twenty nine two nine to the lessons,
Marty Marcus, Welcome in good evening.

Speaker 3 (10:45):
Marcus I've got a few appearenting drama consequences with my
eight kids. The latest ones that works, the latest, the
latest one that works the best.

Speaker 2 (10:56):
Probably just before we get out of that matter, you
probably should do a podcast.

Speaker 4 (10:59):
I should do a podcast.

Speaker 3 (11:01):
Yeah, well like a like a reality TV sort.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
Of just to your farmer with kids. I mean, you know,
and you've got to You've got a good way. You
got a good way with language and a smile, and
you've always listen. Anyway.

Speaker 3 (11:14):
I've been invited on some of the gifts.

Speaker 4 (11:16):
I've done a.

Speaker 2 (11:17):
Couple of the Happy Happy Clapper ones.

Speaker 3 (11:20):
Uh No. One was mountain Bike one, one was Christian
Dads Rad Dads with a Z, and one was Mountain
Biking Q and A, which was just mountain biking.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
Were you good? Were you happy?

Speaker 4 (11:36):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (11:36):
They loved it.

Speaker 2 (11:38):
But you're the hope, but you're the host. Felt they're
going to be out of a job soon.

Speaker 3 (11:42):
I did the mountain Biking Q and A one like
live from a waterfall on the farm and I had
like a cold drink in the waterfall and then we
walked through the cows and then I was two six
six poked their head up with the horns horning. Yeah,
two six six got them there.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
By the way, why Hare's two six six got horns.

Speaker 3 (12:00):
She escaped thet the horning process when she was a
calf twice. And once you do that, it's pretty hard
to get around to it. But I've got it.

Speaker 2 (12:08):
Does that make her difficult in the shed?

Speaker 3 (12:12):
No, you just makes it difficult with the other cows.
They stay away from her, so she does cause a
bit of ruckers. But if she goes to the works,
we've got to cut the horns off two six six
before she goes to the works.

Speaker 2 (12:25):
It couldn't you get some rather things from Tim to
put on the end of the horns to make her
safe around the other cows and around your workers. Might
have invented something there anyway, your first child.

Speaker 3 (12:38):
First child punishment is just like what do we do
for her to turn the TV off and take the
plug out of the TV so she can't turn it
back on again. Yes, that was in the early two thousands.
And then for the latest punishment for the children is
just take your phones off them for a week and
that's pretty rough, and then if they act up again,

(13:00):
you just add another week on and if they're good,
you can take a week off. It's like cigarette in
a prison sort of.

Speaker 2 (13:08):
Just all cell phones are. You got to give them
the cell phone first, get them honked, and then take
it off them.

Speaker 3 (13:14):
Yeah, so that's like the latest one. But I heard
one of my workers from I think he who's lived
in Toka. His dad done a two story house. The
lounge was upstairs. This is probably in the nineties. They
were fighting over whether to watch the Simpsons or Home
and Away or something, and the dad got so mad.

(13:35):
You tom to stopped fighting and they didn't fight. So
he grabbed the TV and just chucked it out the window,
off the second story onto the concrete, and that was
pretty amazing.

Speaker 2 (13:44):
They're the good things. There other things you remember as
a child, don't they When dad checks the TV out
the second floor? Say that for counseling money. Thank you,
liking at twenty three past eight. The ways that you
have taught your children lessons handy tip for peck and say,
find your boxes whilst shopping. If you're see an almost

(14:07):
empty box, remove the contents and save it to your trner.
That's a great idea. That is a great souff. There's
one oat milk. Can I say oat milk. You guys
gotta get triggered who you can't milk it oat. If
you see one oat milk box, you're just one oat
milk packet. You just take that and you take the box.
It's a good idea. They're not going to do it
for theft, are they, Because you're just not stealing stuff.

(14:29):
You're helping them. Marcus. When my hormonal teenage daughter keeps
slamming doors, I took your bedroom door off. Nothing is
more important with teenage girl than privacy. I returned it
once her attitude to her mother improved. I think a
lot of people have taken doors off. I think it's
quite a good punishment. Yeah, I like that a lot.

(14:49):
You're in around of someone's house and all the doors
are off, It's like, wow, what's going on here? Back
at you. This is the topic the things you've done
to your children to teach them a lesson, or maybe
when you're a child, of the things your parents did
to you to teach you a lesson. And I'll be
curious to know what they are actually factually. Taking the
doors off common, taking the phones off standard these days,

(15:11):
taking away their data. What have you done? What have
you had done?

Speaker 4 (15:14):
To you.

Speaker 2 (15:14):
That's the plans doan they are the topics. Get in.
If you've got one of those, we'd love to hear
from you. I think people enjoy West parenting. I mean
it makes us feel better of our own failings. I
would think, oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty and nine
two nine two de text of these things you want took.
But also to the smeg knaves back to New World.
I'm just saying, don't come at me in three months

(15:35):
time and say you haven't got your vouches and time
Hittle twelve. Someone said why couldn't the twenty one year?
I don't know why the person couldn't go the next day.
I don't look too much. I just thought, mate, we've
got a topic there for people need to do that
more often. And I think is annoying as people forgetting
passport to not take a responsibility that it's an important
lesson text if you want to a call. My fiance

(15:58):
and I went on a trip through Asia. I booked
every single flight and hotels, shit, exactly one job. Get
our visas for Vietnam. We've got the chicken cutters Singapore.
It just turned out, and it turned out she nailed
the visas for me and my stepdaughter, but completely botched
her own. She wasn't even allowed to board, so we
all stayed behind instead of jetting it to Vietnam. Jetting
off to Vietnam, I end up booking us the most

(16:20):
aggressively average capsule hotel in the sketchiest neighborhood imaginable to
punish her. We both agree now that her daughter and
I should have gone ahead to Nam and left it
to her own captule. Gosh, if we stort a captural
hotel sounds quite exciting. He's a midnight My name is
Marcus good evening. When I was misbehaved, my parents would
take a single piece of my cricket gear away from me.

(16:43):
If I was a naughty lot during the week I
only end up with a single pad and a bat
by the weekend. Wow, Wow, what have you got? Hit
in the head? These the topics. Get involved, Get get involved,
It's the plan. I weight one hundred and eighty ten
eighty and nineteen ninety two to text. If you want
to come through it from old score punishments, I'm up

(17:03):
with those as long as they're not violent. I'm just
friendly googling wooden wolf cutout. Wow, would geese? Would geese
be scared of a wooden wolf? They wouldn't know a
wooden wolf, would they? Un As they've flown from somewhere
where there was wolves and gall counsel's got to sort
themselves out anyway. Punishments and ways that parents taught you

(17:28):
a lesson? Away, you have taught your children lesson, Marcus.
When my three used to fight or bicker or misbehave,
I'd threaten to drop them off at Carol's. Carol was fictional,
but we pretended she lived in the most derelict random
house I found in a neighborhood. I quite often pulled
upside Carol's house, and all the fighting or problems sees

(17:49):
the second I threatened to take them in. It worked
for a number of years, and my kids in their
twenties still peak of it, still speak of it. Carol.
For the win, my dad stopped the car, made me
get out, and left me on a country road. Wow.
That's the discussion tonight. The ways that you've managed to
teach your children listens, or the way that your parents

(18:11):
taught you listens. They might have worked, or they might
have been humorously ineffective. Hello, Nellie, it's Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 6 (18:18):
I'm Marcus.

Speaker 7 (18:19):
First time caller, first time listen.

Speaker 2 (18:21):
Oh well that's good. That's some good conversion rate to
get you to call on your first night.

Speaker 7 (18:26):
Yeah, I reckon, you're awesome. My partner's from Christier. She's
telling me about you for ages, so we're loving it tonight.
I wanted to say thank you first up to midnight Hi,
because we have called. So that's what you well's cold
and audi, but yes, I'm going to I'm the kind
of person I'll be spending hundreds, hundreds of dollars for

(18:47):
those fifty dollar night.

Speaker 2 (18:49):
You will too. You'll get fixated and you'll be buying
things you don't really need because you think that will
help with your coupons. Are you have you moved camp?

Speaker 7 (18:56):
Are you camping out in the front markers?

Speaker 2 (18:58):
Have you moved to Nelly?

Speaker 7 (19:00):
Well, it's interesting because we heard you talking about flying.
We actually fly back and forward from Gold Coast to Christier,
which every second week, so we fly jet stuff.

Speaker 2 (19:09):
He five fo or internet love.

Speaker 7 (19:11):
Well, no, it's well we met on bumbles but three
yearsn but he has kids in christ Church and I've
got kids in on the Gold Coast, So yeah, we
do fifty to fifty.

Speaker 2 (19:21):
Who's with the kids now and Gold Coast?

Speaker 7 (19:23):
Well that they're not on their own, they're not left
left overseas because they didn't get a passport. But no,
they their husband, you know, like my ex husband and
his ex wife. Wow, so that with the other parent,
I know. So we go back and forth and we
do it every week. And we've been doing that for
about twelve months.

Speaker 2 (19:41):
And so one of you goes, does one of you
go every week?

Speaker 7 (19:47):
No, we go together. So we go to the Gold Coast,
we stay for seven days and then we fly back
to christ Church on the Monday for seven days and
then back and forth. We've been doing that for a year.

Speaker 2 (19:57):
To the world's got interesting heirs? And do you have
do you both have jobs that you can work remotely?

Speaker 7 (20:02):
Or we do? Yeah, so we work from home. But
I gave up to do this. I gave up a
full time career and step down from that because obviously,
flying back and forward, it's a bit hard to be
based in an office. And then I've just got to
work from home job as well. So it's working. At
the moment, we still seem.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
To I don't want to sound falsely flattery, but you
do sound you do sound extremely capable and employable.

Speaker 6 (20:26):
Oh thank you.

Speaker 2 (20:26):
Yeah, it's just a vibe. I don't know, bumble. Is
it like pictures or what's that?

Speaker 7 (20:32):
It's like tinder, but more of a mature one.

Speaker 8 (20:35):
I would like to tell that.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
Oh wow, okay, so it's more it's not for it's
more serious. It's for relationship, not for a hock cup.

Speaker 9 (20:42):
Well we like to think, so right, Well, it seems
to work.

Speaker 2 (20:45):
Out for you, hasn't it, Nelly. You're the post child
for it.

Speaker 7 (20:48):
You know what it's it's working for now. So and
it's it's an interesting life. But yeah, flying Jetstar is amazing, Like,
we haven't had any issues with that.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
So punch I loves so punctual.

Speaker 7 (20:58):
Yeah, yeah, they've been fine. A lot of people call
it you know it's sun but we don't know.

Speaker 2 (21:03):
You're checking early and that's set they go on. Time
is in theffing around, worrying about seats and air couches
and the likes and stuff like that, and you're there
six hours late.

Speaker 7 (21:12):
We have got it down to a fine art where
we can get there literally five minutes straight through straight
through security onto the plane and we're often away.

Speaker 2 (21:22):
Brilliant, love you talking to me. Thanks so much for
coming through. Twenty five to nine. Not a punishment, but
scared those around us. The used to threaten them out
in public with given them fifty cents a page of
razor blades and to g and plan the Moment's a
bit nasty, Marcus. Canada geests have a natural aversion to print.
Is like a wolf that is ingrained by gunic memory.
I wouldn't think they would have, but if you do,

(21:44):
want to talk about the Hamilton Lake incredibly poisonous. Do
you know about that? It's full of arsenic? They poisoned
it and one of the great environmental crimes of all time.
H do you know about this? It was poisoned. I'll
get the deats for you. Hold your horses, Lorraine. Interesting
ways that you've taught your children a lesson, Lorraine, it's smart.

(22:06):
Is welcome? Good evening?

Speaker 10 (22:08):
Yeah, good evening, Marcus.

Speaker 11 (22:10):
How are you going really good?

Speaker 2 (22:11):
Really good? Yeah?

Speaker 10 (22:12):
Well, I've got a lesson that I taught one of
my sons. I was away for a weekend and my
oldest son had got his learner's license and what have you,
and he had well, my kids decided to have guests

(22:33):
over while I was away for the weekend, and a
on a tangy. It's a small sort of area. Everyone
knows everyone, and then they had this party, and then afterwards,
my son, who wasn't a drinker, decided that he would
drive everybody home, but he was driving in my car,

(22:57):
had a bit of a praying and almost bloody took
my car out full on. And I got home after
the weekend and saw my pranged car and decided that
I'm not actually going to use my insurance. He can

(23:18):
bloody well pay for this. So he actually had to,
and he got two jobs. He had to get two
jobs to pay for the damage that he'd done to
my car. But I was just so grateful that he
never killed anyone or himself.

Speaker 2 (23:35):
How much how much was a bill?

Speaker 4 (23:37):
Right?

Speaker 10 (23:38):
It was over eight hundred bucks for a kid of
well almost seventeen. It was a lot of money. And
I just thought, no, I'm not using my my insurance.
He can actually pay for this. And I spoke to
him about it last week. Actually, he was back over

(24:01):
from a visit from Iceland, where he lives now, and
he in his late thirties now, and we had a
laugh about it. And he still remembers having to pay
for the damage to my car because of the stupid
decision that he made. And I just think that you've

(24:23):
got to make your children aware of there are consequences
to actions, and if you're going to make silly decisions,
then you're going to have to pay for them.

Speaker 2 (24:35):
He said, he moved a long way away from you, Lorraine.
Didn't he Iceland?

Speaker 4 (24:38):
Wow?

Speaker 10 (24:38):
Yes, he got away as far as the bloody did he?

Speaker 2 (24:42):
What it wouldn't even be one flights, would be three
flights to get there.

Speaker 10 (24:48):
Oh it was well year three, I suppose. Well he
got from Iceland to Vancouver, Vancouver to Auckland, so you know,
to each way.

Speaker 2 (24:59):
Nice to hear from it to rain, Thank you. We
took the kids to Balley Mum on the streets speaking
with the children. The children went backering and fighting when
we got home. Now three can start a bickering, especially
for toys. I said, the toys were the problems because
the kids were noo. Toys were lovely and happy just
be with their mom. I threatened to throw my kids
toys away. No problem with our two going foot for
a very long time, but I get that, Marcus Speck.
In the nineties, my parents cut the cord to the telly.

(25:22):
We didn't turn it off when told on many occasions.
No TV free year until the old man wanted to
watch the Olympics and he bought a new one and
learned lesson. It's a great thing to cut the cord
because it's visual. You get the sickle or the maddic,
get the cord good dump. It's a great thing to do.
Someone says Mark's used no bumble. He was on Lindsay
Oh's show. Is that bumble talked? Listens Marcus good evening.

Speaker 8 (25:51):
Well, my second daughter was a monkey going to school.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
Can we call them monkeys? Okay, yes, a we monkey?

Speaker 8 (25:58):
Yes, call it we monkey. Well she's in a fifties
now she's not. We're monkey. But anyway, she was a
tinker because she's orders. Anyway, she'll not get talk to school.
So she got in the car and I said, oh,
that's all right done, and she said, oh isn't mom.

heaps of factories. So I took her down. I stopped
and I said, so, what are you stopping here for month?
I said, I'll take next door. She's a secretary to
that Tallard lighting. If you go in there, you can
ask her for a job.

Speaker 2 (26:38):
Good idea great thing to do.

Speaker 11 (26:40):
What do you want to do that for to school?

Speaker 8 (26:44):
We're not going for any school, and you'll be putting
screws on things and that'll be you like because your
father won't have your tone. Oh mom, she said, put
me in the car, I want to go to school.
And I never said another word. She got masters, a
master pieces, got indicator, you know, and she still remembers

(27:08):
that though.

Speaker 2 (27:09):
What was the factoryers?

Speaker 8 (27:11):
Oh, it's one down where I love. I think it
was Hella or one of those lighting places.

Speaker 2 (27:16):
Oh yeah, okay, a long time ago, but these days
the kids probably know they couldn't be kicked out from
school and go to leave job at twelve. How old
was she eight?

Speaker 8 (27:33):
I think she needed to get I think she'd done

playing up brilliant. Oh yeah, so she laughed. I did
all sorts of things like that. I was. I don't
know if it was a good mother or bed.

Speaker 2 (27:46):
Ohlers, I think you would have been a creative.

Speaker 8 (27:48):
Mothers what she said to me one day because she
was little tinkers, Oh I think that she said, I said,

to you.

Speaker 8 (28:13):
Oh yeah, I laugh because everything because I was under
it in such a way that they never got angry.

Speaker 2 (28:21):
I believe you too. List thank you. Fifteen to night.
Unusual punishments are a week unusual way you taught your
kids lessons or your parents taught you lessons. So it's
a broad topic and we like that so you can
come up with things punishment. Washing police cars on a
Sunday morning never stole. Is that your parents or the police.

(28:42):
Marcu's regarding my twin sons. I bought my iPhone twenty thirteen.
The sun managed to get hold of my phone eBay
account not locked. The two adorable children started by a
lego from the States A couple of weeks past, and
all of a sudden, I was receiving the mail daily,
many individual orders that I knew I never purchased. Took
me out a month to realize what was happening. Christmas
twenty thirteen, the boys received the lego for their presence

(29:03):
quite good and Geese chuck Geese into the topic. I
don't think a wooden wolf would work. Marcus, my grandson
wouldn't put his phone down to come to dinner. I
changed the Wi Fi password to get in. He had
to make me smile five times at lightened up the mood,
and he got the point. He is trying really hard
now to listen. Many moons ago, one of my sons

(29:25):
and my daughters were fighting on each other all the
way home in the car from town to the dairy
farm where we lived. So I dropped them both our mailbox,
which was the biginning of a long drive, so they
could walk the rest of the way. Chavon Uamadu get
in touch. Hittel twelve, fourteen to nine. Punishments Crime and
Punishment eleven to nine are oh eight hundred and eighty

(29:47):
eight ten The inverted Comma's tooth fairy left a note
under my daughter's pillows saying that the room was too messy.
The room was too messy to gain excess to get
the lost tooth. We'll try again tomorrow, written on the note.
Next night, the room was spotless. Seven Nah never asked
how the note got there if the tooth fairy couldn't

(30:08):
get there. Stevey Good Steve Marcu's had a craving for
cameo creams after many years, only to find they don't
make them mental jef for ones anymore, only the coconut
original biscuit. Also swore they remember another victim of shrink flation.

run a kilometer for every dollar I stole. Worst, how

Forty kilometers?

Speaker 4 (30:35):
Ever?

Speaker 2 (30:36):
Wow, it's a great lesson. What do we think of that?
Is that cruel? I guess the question is did you
steal again our world champion marathon?

Speaker 4 (30:44):
Running?

Speaker 2 (30:44):
No doubt at your people? Eight hundred and eighty ten

raving around Hamilton. But I can't see them represented there,
even any of them anyway, it won't see it's cocker hoop.
Well that mine his chefs do work hard. I suppose
you wonder how hard it is to get a Mitchellan

(31:05):
star because that guy in Emily in Paris, I mean
Flip spent most of the time chasing her up and
down the apartment stairs and for a little time in
the restaurant. Actually. Anyway, that till I know about mitchelland Stars,
I think that's all I know. If any more comes
to me, I will I'll let you know. Oh eight
hundred and eighty ten eighty Crime and Punishment. Yes, I
stole again from Marathon Man. Thanks for that. So it

And yes, good news on the old mitchelland Stars be
a pretty good job, wouldn't it. Going around the country
eating and a lot of talk about Michael Laws running
for White Tachi for New Zealand. First, that'll that'll mix
it up. You get a high, you'll get a high

(31:49):
list too. But jeap as creepers be terrified for the
guy that's got to run against him. I don't want
to get into a bait with Michael Laws. He is,
he's not fearless. Be the worst part of the world
to debate. Everybody take it runs circles around most people.
It probably always has anyway, bless him. Get in touch

(32:13):

the tooth fairy idea brilliant. Here's on midnight one of
his Marcus Good Evening five from nine Dian it's Marcus
Good Evening.

Speaker 14 (32:24):
Yes, good evening, mart Marcus. Oh, that's made my night.
Knowing that Michael Laws is standing for New Zealm thoos,
that's wonderful.

Speaker 2 (32:37):
It hasn't been confirmed yet. That is the speculation. The
reporters have rung Michael Laws. He says he doesn't comment
on rumors. He didn't say no. And Whenston Peters said
it's and I paraphrase said, it's below my pay grade.
But that seems to be the talk. Yes, yes, Now
you're in White Tuckey, which has got everything. It's from
Warna Kertz Cromwell. It's a big electorate. Isn't it.

Speaker 14 (32:59):
It is a big electric so that would knock a
few people.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
How much did your rates go up a mine?

Speaker 14 (33:07):
I haven't got them yet. I don't I live in tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (33:10):
Oh okay, becausey which it's all got up.

Speaker 14 (33:13):
Yes, I don't know what ours have gone up yet.
So I did ring them, but they didn't seem.

Speaker 2 (33:19):
To who'd you ran?

Speaker 14 (33:22):
Yeah? Yeah, so but anyway, I'm very pleased about.

Speaker 2 (33:28):
As I say, I don't know that it's happening.

Speaker 14 (33:30):
Yeah, but it'll be great because I'm a great fan
of Michael Lewis is. Yeah, that's wonderful.

Speaker 2 (33:37):
You know he lives in Cromwell now well yeah.

Speaker 14 (33:42):
Oh yes, say he would have been yes, I know.
Oh that's beautiful. Spot down there.

Speaker 2 (33:47):
Who's your who's your MP? Currently in White Techi?

Speaker 14 (33:51):
Now ah, I'm not too sure. But the one that's
here is that the marry boy was mentioned on the radio,
or Pat Mario should say. I can't think what it was.
The name is he is in param of his so
that's how he got the job. I can't tell you

(34:12):
what it's. The name is, No it's not Seeker, No, no,
that's not I couldn't tell you. I couldn't tell you.

Speaker 2 (34:20):
I think your MP for White Tucky is a farmer
by the name of Miles Anderson.

Speaker 14 (34:29):
Oh that you'd be right.

Speaker 2 (34:31):
You're not sounding that well informed about it, are you,
Because you've got.

Speaker 4 (34:34):
The over it.

Speaker 2 (34:37):
That's what you might need. You need a familiar name
like Lawsy to get in there because you guys not
doing much for you. Yes, yes, I think he's confederated
farmer's guy, old Miles Anderson.

Speaker 14 (34:48):
Yes, I would be.

Speaker 2 (34:49):
And they bill farmers, check another check another farmer and
no nonsense, get old with people. Do the small talk.

Speaker 14 (34:57):
Well, okay, I will let you go anyway. Yeah, good
to listen to you. Are you head a good chubbed
last night too?

Speaker 2 (35:08):
Which always god. Yeah, we don't do retrospective talk back,
but thank you Marcus. Pierre White returns Mitch and Staris.
You've got the judges said, less coloring knowledge than him.
Good on them. So we are talking about you. We're
not talking about unusual. We are talking about unusual punishment.
But the woman that was going on holiday with her
daughter and a daughter must have been an adult, right,
So the mother was the mother of an adult child.

(35:30):
And they got to the airport and the daughter didn't
have a passport. Ah, yeah, they go to the Turks
and Caicos Islands. So anyways, the mother's been without her
I thought were fair enough. And the topic we're discussing
is the the lessons punishments you have done to teach

(35:54):
your children a lesson or the ones that your parents
did to you. I quite like taking the door off.
I always think the more dramatic the better. Actually, well,
I mean no, I probably shouldn't say them more dramatic
the better, because I'm not quite sure how scarred the
children end up being. But that's what we are on
about tonight. Oh that the Smeg Knives. They're on their
way back New World or got no time for three months?

Speaker 7 (36:18):
Time?

Speaker 2 (36:18):
People be ringing the show and saying, oh, there's anyone
any coupons. They're out of knives at Botany, they're out
at knives at Hamilton, so just no, if you want
to get your damn New World knives, it starts on
July the thirteenth, and we'll go quickly because I look
like quite good knives. I don't know how good they

(36:39):
had to sharpen those ones made a single pieces of metal,
but anyway, that's what we're on about tonight, get in touched.
You want to talk anything else?

Speaker 9 (36:44):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (36:44):
Wait, but mainly about punishment. The inspirational ways you have
punished your child were not punished, but I feel punished
sounds a bit harsh. Taught them lifelong lessons, that's the
vein I want to go down tonight. Can I read

(37:07):
that one?

Speaker 6 (37:08):
Dan?

Speaker 2 (37:09):
It's a boo Guantanamo? Yeah, I don't know if this
I don't know if this was a bit Guantanamo or not.
But someone says, if my brother I misbehaved, my dad
used to zip to our hands and feet together and
put us outside till we calm down. It worked eventually. Wow,
how are you feeling now as an adult? To me,

(37:31):
that's pretty extreme triggering sound. You're just krobably going afterward.
I just wanted to play the sound that I start behaving.
Imagine myself doing that. I shouldn't say that that sounds bad,
but you can imagine. It's something quite satisfying about the
zip tie. How it just goes one way. Wow. I
don't want to talk about belts and stuff because I'm
not about that. I always get capital and corporal punishment mixed.

(37:53):
But the other one about hitting kids. I'm not into that,
but that's the discussion for tonight. So ten past nine,
get in touch and your knives and seventy five years
of intentional air travel from christ Church. The anniversary of
eight was it's a DC four skymast to six and
a half hours to Melbourne. Forty people on the plane.
It take that long these days, I think once you've

(38:15):
checked in the candle, your fluid and droplastic bag, guardiyardier,
come on, that's the discussion. So there, that's what we've got,
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty, ten past nine. I'll
keep you up there with news and the other discussions.
You've got to feel free to come through. What about
that couple flying a week apart from the Gold Coast

(38:35):
in christ Church? Goodness, what do you want to say
about that? Come on, it's here from you tonight. I
found myself a glass of water and often find that
of an evening punishments and unusual ways your parents punished you.
If you want to flip it on its head, most
of it seems to evolve removing things these days, like

(38:55):
cell phones or technology. Altho our family, we've had the
technology discussed to say you band from technology well, and
then gets complicated quite quickly because like, is the TV technology,
is the radio technology? A book's technology? I mean everything's
technology in its day, isn't it. I'm never quite sure
how that one breaks down. But yes, that's the plan

(39:17):
to talk tonight if you want to what else have
you got? Jump in? Oh, eight hundred and eighty ten
eighty nine to nine to text to keep your detible
things around the world also tonight, beautiful But yes, the
thirteenth of May. Yes, meg knives stat of origin next Wednesday,
two eight days away from that. All Black tests this

(39:37):
Saturday with the five thousand extra seats gone into Takaha.
Wish I was going actually we actually I prefer to
go to the Warriors, but I well, I wouldn't have
mind going to test there to see what it's like.
Oh well, we might talk about that a bit later on.
And I hope it's all going well for you with
your football sweep steak brilliant Gillen Gandry five hundred bucks.

(39:57):
But Germany's out and the Netherlands are out so well,
there's been some giants that have been slaid. Whatonerfull they
should change from penalty kicks what are they just the
golds bigger and get more scores. Jamie Marcus, Good evening,
and welcome.

Speaker 13 (40:11):
How's your night going.

Speaker 2 (40:12):
It's going all right, thank you?

Speaker 13 (40:15):
How good was the cricket quickly?

Speaker 15 (40:17):
Mean?

Speaker 2 (40:18):
Yeah? I was asking Dan newly because I went to
bed at ten past twelve. I think I must have
finished about two o'clock. Didn't because it seemed like it
was going quite slowly when I was watching it last night.
But I think they must have got those that breakthrough,
and it must have the last wickets must have fallen
quite quickly. I guess.

Speaker 16 (40:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 13 (40:37):
I was listening to it on the radio. Then I
was like, I'm going to go to bed for work,
and I was pretty boring, and then I got up
and I was like, wow, that's impressive. Yeah, but I
was bringing So we wanted hungry jacks or as you
guys would call it, burger king, and she wanted a Sunday.
I can't remember which way it was. I think she

(40:57):
wanted to.

Speaker 2 (40:57):
Chop who she the kid or the missus?

Speaker 4 (41:02):
Oh?

Speaker 13 (41:02):
Sorry, my daughter?

Speaker 2 (41:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 13 (41:03):
Yeah yeah, and she goes, I don't want to started crying.
I don't want a strawberry Sunday. I wanted a chocolate one.
I said, so you don't want this? She said no,
So I threw it straight out the window before we
even got out of the driveway. And then she goes, I.

Speaker 4 (41:17):
Would have eaten that.

Speaker 17 (41:18):
Never once did she ever ask.

Speaker 13 (41:21):
Me if an order was wrong that she didn't want
it again to take it. Wow, it would have been
about eight years old, I reckon seven or eight.

Speaker 2 (41:32):
No, I think the yeah, I think the key to
that from a parent point of view would have people
have done it quite calmly. Did you do it quite calmly?

Speaker 11 (41:42):
Yeah?

Speaker 13 (41:42):
She's just like, oh, maybe the wrong one started crying,
and I'm like, so you don't want this? She's like no.
When I went, oh, I would have had that, it's
too late.

Speaker 2 (41:51):
Now did you go and get her other one? No?

Speaker 13 (41:56):
No, no, no, that was it. It was just no Sunday,
you know, you know you get, Yeah, you get what
you get. But yeah, and then so she didn't want it,
so the window it went. I felt bad because of
the letter, But it was worth that you.

Speaker 2 (42:09):
Feel because you felt bad because the letter not making
your kid cry.

Speaker 13 (42:14):
No go Yeah, you got to teach them a lesson.

Speaker 2 (42:17):
Can you remember if your lessons were effective when you
were a child.

Speaker 13 (42:23):
Not really, because it was just being my mom. I
remember my mom chasing me out the driveway going to
the illegal street racers in the nicety. Yeah that wasn't
It's not great, Jomie.

Speaker 2 (42:34):
That's heartbreaking.

Speaker 13 (42:37):
Yeah, she didn't believe in giving me a hiding, but
I probably needed one.

Speaker 2 (42:42):
So did she take the keys?

Speaker 13 (42:45):
Now, I'll just go and get them off her.

Speaker 2 (42:48):
So you never had the keys of the car even
when your legal street race of the Fear of Britain.
But she wasn't taking your keys or anything.

Speaker 13 (42:54):
No, No, she just chased me on the driveway and go, yeah,
you've only got a learner's license and that well.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
But yeah, now that that were how the luner's license
work out for you, Jamie. How many find did you
a mess?

Speaker 13 (43:08):
I think we got like fifty grand and then got
them down to ten and then got them back up
to thirty and then yeah, put them on my mortgage
and paid them off so I could go back home.

Speaker 2 (43:20):
How many find it? If your listener is still getting fines.

Speaker 13 (43:25):
No, I do get I probably have to go to
court soon because I think I'd done for an unsecured
load here at about light so yeah, it was really
I don't think it was my fault, but anyway, you know,
obviosinitely I did everything to the what work wanted me
to do and to the law. But I had a

(43:46):
load shift and I was hanging hanging onto the curtain,
so I was considered oversized. So yeah, it wasn't great.
But anyway, that's right.

Speaker 2 (43:53):
I haven't lost a job because of it.

Speaker 13 (43:56):
Now the boss said, I'm already morning to the boss
that I didn't want.

Speaker 4 (43:59):
To do the Joe.

Speaker 13 (44:00):
He took me on and he goes, oh, I think
you're off it now, all right, and he goes, don't worry,
you won't get in any trouble. So I think it
was a kind of glass bottles you can't fire them
in and they of course. I think it was an
engineering engineering problem with the betterfacting problem. I should say, So,
aren't you good?

Speaker 2 (44:20):
On? You're nice to hear from Jemmie. Seventeen past nine,
Marcus weared two adults and five children have been ended
fan with just one bathroom. Our son would just leave
his clothes on the floor in the bathroom. I threatened
to throw away any clothes that left on the floor.
Instead of throwing the away. I just put them on
into a rubbish bag. Over several weeks and it was
ages before he realized had clothes missing. At first I
told them they've thrown away. Wasn't happy. Eventually I returned him,

(44:42):
but the rule was he washed them all. He lived,
never left anything on the floor again. Marcus. My friend
and I did a positive parenting course. She had to
go to work. The child was seven and wouldn't get
streps for school. She rang me to go by a house.
She'd put the girl and school bag outside the door
and left todd us. She had to go to school
in Jarmi's. I arrived to the rescue, but the girl

(45:04):
into lesson. Quite funny, Marcus. I'm seventy five years old.
My friend and I stay. Oh, I'm seventy five years old.
When I was ten, my friend and I stole a
peg of cigarettes from my parents' friend shop. My mother
found out and made me stand in the shop and
smoke them. Everyone who came into the shop. She told

(45:24):
that I was a thief who had stolen the cigarettes
had to smoke them through tears. I probably smoked half
of one. I never ever stole another thing ever, but
did just smoke. Two children fighting, I'd give them both
a cleaning cloth and a window cleaner. I'd put one
on each side of the ranch slider and tell them
to clean it. They would start by pulling faces each other,
but always ended up laughing. Piggy big Moon, how about

(45:48):
a halo good evening, Marcus, Did you know on one
July nineteen seventy nine, this Sunny Walkman was released? Yes,
I did know that, Marcus. When I was a kid,
we went to a buffet restaurant for the first time.
I didn't know what a buffet was. My dad and
you can eat as much as you wanted. I then
saw my favorite Brandy Snaps. I took the whole tray.

(46:11):
My dad decided to teach me a lesson. I make
you meet the whole tray before we left. I was
really sick that night. Worth it Worth It nineteen past nine.
Cruel and unusual punishments or the way you were punished
or the way you have punished. And I think we
can turn this into a learning experience by some of
the more outrageous ones we think jeepest creepers that seems
a bit full. On nine twenty two, be in touch

(46:34):
if you want to talk here till twelve o'clock tonight. Punishment,
cruel and unusual punishments. I like the one of taking
the door off because I imagine many have done that
in desperation. So that's the situation. If you want to
talk about this. There anything else to the smeg knives
back at New World. Some of you will be desperate
for those, and only cause I know the mindset and

(46:56):
the hype. That's the situation. So the tough love you've
shown your child, let's put it that way. If that's
the way you want to go. Oh wait, two hundred
eight eighty, there's something I just want to mention tonight too.
Get in touch, be good to hear from you. I
do what I can to keep our deal with the
news also as it happens. But yes, keep it going

(47:17):
if you do want to talk on air. But I
have some calls, oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty, So
I'm not gonna be the way you might have punished
your kids, but the way you might have been punished
as a child, and how that worked out for you
some of them might have been well. I don't want
to get to the real terrible stuff. But that's a situation.
They're people, and if you want to talk it this
everything else, feel free to come through. As I say, oh,

(47:38):
eight hundred eighty ten eighty, I hope it's going well
for you if the sweepsteak too for the Old World.
Couple of the big teams are out now. I don't
know where we are. I haven't got the full TVNZ package,
so I'm not watching the matches, but apparently the one
of the teams. I'm not quite sure if the Dutch
of the gym has made a real heck of the

(47:58):
penalty kicks. I just wonder if we feel they are
a fair way to judgement. I don't know what any
alternative is. You might have some thoughts on that mic
age eleven men. My friend unhooked a flatbed train and
managed to push at three meters within a siding in Mosgiel.
Mum took us to the police station. They put the

(48:18):
fear of God into us. School exchange day was allowed
to go. My rugby team lost one hundred and eight
to nil. Still haunts me. Worse punishment ever had How
do you think you would have gone if you'd played?
Must have rated yourself quite like that. But yeah, get
in touch you and talk about this punishment. This as
punishment as I say, oh, eight hundred and eighty ten

(48:39):
eighty anything else you want to talk about fil free
to come through a twenty five past nine someone text
about the price of petrol. I think the petrol price
is all going to be fine. Yeah, a couple of weeks,
that payment thing will come off. Certainly resolved itself better
than I thought it. Although there could still be tricks,
it could still kick off again. I don't think Crump

(49:01):
is in a relaxed place. I think you watch about
those two fifty anniversary parties. I mean, you can't be
and good about things. It does worry me. He's going
to flear off. Yeah, get in touch on talk about
that too. Twenty five past nine, nine twenty seven mellets, Marcus,
Greetings and good evening.

Speaker 18 (49:19):
Love Marcus. How are you?

Speaker 2 (49:20):
Yeah, good man? What have you got?

Speaker 18 (49:23):
I did have a little story from when I was younger,
and then I kind of thought about it more and
realized that it just wasn't that crazy, So it's what.

Speaker 2 (49:31):
It's more than crazy.

Speaker 18 (49:32):
No, No, it just wasn't that crazy. So then it
just felt a bit silly to share. But now that
I'm here, I may as well it will be the judge. Yeah.
When I was younger, I you said, this always be
more of the trouble maker. And so Mum just got
quite sick of it, and so she decided to kind

(49:53):
of tell me that there were these people that come
and take away like really naughty kids and like take
them away and like really discipline them like elsewhere, kind
of like a boarding school type thing. And so anytime
that I would do anything, instead of like telling me
that she's gonna call the police, she would tell me
that she would all these people that take bad kids away.

(50:14):
And it got me acting.

Speaker 2 (50:17):
Quite bad because your mother must have believed, she must
have seen you'd believe didn't They must have terrified her
as well. What did she call them?

Speaker 18 (50:27):
She just called them like the naughty kid police or
something like the.

Speaker 2 (50:33):
Are you like twelve or sixteen at the time?

Speaker 18 (50:37):
No, No, I was like, I don't know, maybe like eight.

Speaker 2 (50:40):
Has she apologized since?

Speaker 18 (50:42):
Yeah, Like in hindsight now she's like I can see
how that was like truly traumatic and she would do
the whole steal like her now and.

Speaker 2 (50:50):
She's traumatic to think people are just gonna turne up
and remove you from your family.

Speaker 18 (50:55):
Well, and she's called them, she'd call them and then
to be like, you're so lucky. They're not answering right now.
They're busy with the other kids.

Speaker 2 (51:01):
I should be on the phone.

Speaker 18 (51:03):
Yeah, she'd be on the phone to say I'm calling
them right now. They're gonna come get.

Speaker 2 (51:05):
You, you know.

Speaker 18 (51:10):
But in hindsight, see now, I was like, yeah, no,
that was crazy, So.

Speaker 2 (51:13):
It's next time to pretend to call them, calling them
now two three seven, keep your calls coming through. Thank
you mail. Eight hundred and eighty ten eighty are cruel
and unusual punishments. I keep those going, or one that
you might have done to your own kids twenty nine
away from ten, some old school punishments would be good

(51:34):
to keep those going. Surely, it's Marcus, Good evening.

Speaker 19 (51:38):
Evening, Marcus. I have a not a really interesting story.
But I thought I was teaching one of our twelve
year old children, a boy. He was extremely untidy in
his bedroom. So I got hold of all of his
drawers and I turned them upside down on his bed,

(51:58):
And when I came home from school, I said to him,
I think you'd better get into your bedroom. When he goes, oh, mum.
So I went out to see my friend out in
the backyard, and when it came time for dinner, we
came in and we had our dinner, and our bedroom
is upstairs. Came upstairs and he'd turned every one of
my drawers upside down in my bedroom, and I thought, well,

(52:23):
I deserved that. From then on, he had a nice
tidy bedroom and I had to hurry up and tidy
up my bedroom. But I don't know whether that was
a very good remedy or not.

Speaker 2 (52:32):
Unexpected that. That's a bit too far to me. I would
have expect him to go and do that.

Speaker 19 (52:36):
Yeah, yeah, well he was a bit of innovative.

Speaker 2 (52:39):
Did you feel bad about doing that now?

Speaker 19 (52:41):
I didn't feel bad at all. I just went in
there and thought, oh, well, you know, he's not going
to learn any other way because I always used to
tidy it, and I thought, I'm sick of this. He
can tidy it himself. And then I took wal upside
down shoes and socks, all his clothes on the bed.
Then didn't realize that he whipped upstairs and turned on
mine up side down as well.

Speaker 2 (53:00):
Which made a bit of an odd goal too, did
it and not quite like that. Shirley, Thank you. There
we go twenty eight from ten Marcus A couple of memories.
When I saw at my mother I was ten years old,
my grandfather got a cake of soap put in my mouth.
I'm sixty five, still taste it. When I was ten,
I still a dollar from Dad's and brought a heap
of tom thumb crackers when I confessed I wasn't out

(53:21):
of the yard for two weeks. Our teenage son was
punished by not being able to go out with friends
for the night. He got out of his bedroom window
and went anywhere without us knowing. Growing up in the
fifties and sixties, our parents would used to discipline us
three siblings. Mum used to keep an apple twig on
the mental piece dead would un three the leather belt

(53:43):
from his trousers. Us three kids knew the fruit was
always there, but our parents never used either on us.
This is a rural one Andre from Ringingora. I was
punished once by my grandfather taking the tractor out without permission,
tied up to the clothes line for three hours. Wow,
that is old school. The hill hoist she heard, what
a steal of tractor when the Beatles came to New

(54:06):
z and there were radio reports every afternoon, my mum
punished me for something by not letting me listen to
one of the two reports. I thought she was absolutely bitchy.
You're fair enough. These have been spirited old school punishments
you received, or the things that you've done to your
children to teach them a lesson that might have worked
or might not have worked in hindsight. That's the plan.

(54:28):
That's the topic eight hundred and eighty ten eighty And
if you want to text, do that too. My father
is to threaten to send us to work in the
salt mines in Siberia, which, although seemed scary, would have
been preferable to remaining with him. Wow, A lot to
unpicked from that as a text. It sounds miserable, doesn't it.
Twenty six to ten Your calls please, and your punishments,

(54:51):
I like taking the door off, And maybe you might
even actually put some time into thinking of the punishments
that really worked and there might have been some real
sense to it to go down that road as well.
Seventy five year anniversary of international travel from the South ISLD.
The first flight this day seventy five years ago from

(55:16):
christ Itch to Melbourne, DC four Skymaster. I do kind
of like the ones which are which are weird threats
And you think is that ould too, that it was
fascicle what they were doing. But yeah, we did tell
like or Sabodiki didn't that she was threatening that Mel's
mother was threatening her with. But come and take your
the uplift jeepest screepers, Graham, it's Marcus. Good evening and welcome.

Speaker 20 (55:41):
Oh hi Marcus. I did the couple that work? I
think very well.

Speaker 2 (55:47):
On your on your children.

Speaker 20 (55:49):
Yes, yep. One was one was computer crazy and had
to use our one and wanted his zone. He was
being a bit of monkey at college. So I went.

Speaker 21 (56:07):
And bought a.

Speaker 20 (56:10):
I found out what computer he wanted. I bought it,
lifted in the box, took a wrapping off so he
could see what it was, lifted in the hallway where
he came in the back door each day from school
and did a deal with his one of the head
call the head teacher they have and on a point system.

(56:33):
Oh so he got points each week for how he
was at school and that went. I forget how points
he had to get to one hundred or something and
it was I think about twenty points a month, and no,
we did it over six months, but so many points

(56:55):
each week, and if he didn't have a good week,
he didn't get the points.

Speaker 4 (57:00):
And he just kept.

Speaker 20 (57:01):
Saying, can I want that computer wink and open and
say when you reached the target?

Speaker 2 (57:07):
So well, I quite like that one. That's quite a
positive one. It was.

Speaker 20 (57:13):
And then I did was to keep me both, but
I wanted to go anyway. And the next one I
did with him was the Malaysian Grand Prix, but that
one was over twelve months and they managed to get
the points for that one.

Speaker 2 (57:27):
So what you took him to the Malaysian Grand Prix?

Speaker 4 (57:29):
Yep?

Speaker 20 (57:32):
Yeah, but he he had to work at it, keep
going back to his old habits. He's crazy on basketball.
Had to replace about seven of those because they were confiscated.

Speaker 2 (57:46):
Well, it's not wrong. I mean a kid that's crazy
with basketball. As it was, he playing at the wrong time.

Speaker 22 (57:50):
Yeah, exactly, Okay, is he an adult?

Speaker 2 (57:53):
Is it an adult now?

Speaker 4 (57:54):
Yep?

Speaker 20 (57:55):
Don't ver very well?

Speaker 4 (57:57):
Yeah, brilliant.

Speaker 2 (57:59):
What did he end up working in computers?

Speaker 11 (58:01):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (58:01):
Did you end up playing basketball?

Speaker 16 (58:05):
Oh?

Speaker 20 (58:05):
Yes, he got in new Zealand Development squad here to
live much and nice lady.

Speaker 2 (58:14):
That he's done fantastically with him. Any other punishment that
they weren't any punishment, They're all incentives.

Speaker 20 (58:19):
Well, they were punishment and centives because I mean it
had to be that way because otherwise the school situation
wouldn't have been good.

Speaker 19 (58:31):
Was he tall?

Speaker 12 (58:32):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (58:33):
Six to two?

Speaker 20 (58:34):
N six?

Speaker 2 (58:36):
You need to be six two to be better at basketball.
A six is not enough these days, is it?

Speaker 20 (58:40):
I won the slam dunk competition for Quebec. Doesn't exchange really?

Speaker 2 (58:50):
Yeah, you sound like you're the greatest period of all time?
Gray and they were were on exchange scholarship as well.

Speaker 20 (58:58):
Yep, right, Rochy did that's the ritery?

Speaker 2 (59:05):
Good on your graham Nice to talk nineteen to ten.
My dad live in England. If he played up, his
parents were threatened to send to the Gypsies. I think
that was quite common. One of our kids almost drove
us mad when she was a teen her phone she
wrecked up a book with telecom as willis signing up
to have a newspaper round. Her phone was hammered to
a tree in our yard. Ironically, two of her mate's
phones ended up on the same tree. That same year,

(59:29):
I told my kids if they teased the cat, it
would come into their room at night and fart on
their lips while they slept. They stopped teasing the cat.
Whatever works. I'll be giving a new pair of shoes
for my birthday, which I really loved. I was fourteen
at the time and with my friends we would always
get dressed up on a Friday night to go to
youth group dance. You know why I backchattered my mother
once she took away my new shoes for a month,

(59:50):
I was not able to go to any more dances.
Of two months, didn't back chatter again. Oh, my friend's
teenage son was taking too long in the shower. She
went and turned the water off at the mains. Goodness
and the salt mines. Wow. When we lived in Asia

(01:00:12):
as ex pet teachers, some of the other teachers punished
students who were chewing gum by making them wear it
on their nose all day. Others were made to sit
in the heat and sit on the field of thirty
degrees heat. Pretty mean, really, and these were using ex
pet teachers that never get away with here thankfully. Oh yeah,
I think some teachers were genuinely cruel seventeen to nine

(01:00:32):
crawel out unusual punishments. The ones you've done are the
ones you got done to you. Marcus I moother got
fed up with their brothers climbing out the bedroom window
and going to play with friends when they've been sent
to their bedroom as a punishment. They came from school
one day to find she'd planted rose bushes under the windows. Wow,
get in touch, Hettel twelve seventeen to nine, seventeen to ten,
seventeen to eleven. Pick your time. There'll be one of

(01:00:55):
those come on parenting techniques, the good and the Bad,
fancy wringing, slam dunk competition. I thought it was going
to say like and winter. I didn't think he's going
to say quoebette. I was made to scrub the driveway
with a toothbrush by my uncle for not having to
plead the chor as a twelve year old. My mother
was a single parent. He took on the role of

(01:01:16):
punisher and forcer and main male figure and mine and
my younger brother's eighty teenage years. I had to pack
my toys in Black Sex as a ten year old
for the poor kids for not tiding my room off
to live at the naughty girl's home at eight years
because I disobeyed my mother or whatnot. He's dead now.
I always found out that behind closed doors here and
my mother were laughing while devising these punishments. But hey,

(01:01:39):
no trauma there ryban that sounds shocking. Jeeps held twelve
fifteen from ten. The topic is interesting and unusual punishments
on the back of that woman that went to a
hogway with her daughter and the daughter that never passport
so the mother went without, which I quite like we've

(01:02:00):
taken the whole gamut. What I like is the phantom threat.
So you got one of those that phantom threat. I mean,
I don't think I've got to be quite dramatic. They're
saying someone's going to come round and and uplift you
cheap as I think taking the door off the I

(01:02:21):
think taking doors off has good. I'm into that. I
think that must be quite I mean, I can imagine
parents doing that, taking doors off walls. So have you
got some of those jumping people hittl twelve oh eighth
de text. That's what we're about tonight. I'll quite like
some of the rural ones, like steading a tractor. But

(01:02:43):
you want to get some into cable ties and stuff.
But by the way, I pretty sure that's illegal to
cable tie someone. But oh well, let's say it worked anyway.
That's why we are discussing tonight. And yep, Marcus, I
play the song Go by the Chemical Brothers for my

(01:03:03):
son when he's in the shower, if he's han't done,
If if he isn't done by the time the song's finished,
it's a ten league bucket of cold water. There you go,
ten away from ten o'clock. Be good to hear before
the news people. Wimbledon's in full flight. We're getting all
the stories on who's at Wimbledon. Usual suspects, Mary Becky,
Mary Barry and David Beckham. Never looks happy, Beckham does.

(01:03:27):
He never looks happy, never looks like he's living in
his true life, Old Beckham. He's got that sort of worried,
that furrowed brow. Oh well, well though, Mary Barry always
looks delightful. Come on, get in touch, hit or twelve
o'clock to night.

Speaker 23 (01:03:42):
Oh wha wha, wha, wha, wha, whoa whoa whoa whoa
whoa whoa whoa whoa, whoa.

Speaker 2 (01:03:47):
Marcus bedrooms were okay in our day. Mom would just
shut the door and say you live in your mess.
It was just close on the floor and sports gare
and a couple of cans. The big thread I had
for my mother was to send me to health camp.
Should pick up the phones potentially was calling through. Worked
for a long time, and eventually I worked it out.
I don't know too much about health camps. I don't

(01:04:08):
know if the health camps were punishment for the children
or for the parents. So I meant it to be a
fair bit of judgment if your kids got sent to
health camp, wouldn't they When I was at brown Ole
Primary School back in seventy seven, I remember one of
the boys who had to fight at playtime was a
bit of a bully. The teacher allowed all the girls
in our class to attack him. Three came out crying.
Then the teacher allowed all the boys to ever go

(01:04:29):
at him in and he came out crying. Thinking back,
I can't believe this happened. As a toddler, I took
a greeting card out of the rack at Woolworths. I
couldn't find where I got it from. To put it back.
My mother got anger. I turned to put it back
and she had gone. When I turned back, I saw
driving away out of the car park. Wow, well that's abandonment.

(01:04:49):
There was a toddler. I never gave greeting cards with
gifts for many years after that. Chefs Bennett's Marcus Good Evening.

Speaker 5 (01:04:58):
Just getting back to the punishment. This thing's a little
bit ridiculous to me, Bud. When I was younger was
the punishment. I was given some scissors and told, yeah,
cup the grass like, mow the lawns with them?

Speaker 2 (01:05:17):
What had you done?

Speaker 5 (01:05:19):
I can't even remember. I didn't get punished much, but
I think it was an old school punishment that he
had to do when, yeah, when he was younger, because
a lot.

Speaker 2 (01:05:32):
Of people had that whole thing with a toothbrush that
I've always thought that must be something. I've never been
in the army, but I've always thought that must be
some sort of military punishment. Is it to clean a
room with a toothbrush?

Speaker 5 (01:05:43):
Yeah, toothbrush? You get the I would have mentioned the
person what you call it, the sargean, just inspecting the
white the white gloves would come out.

Speaker 2 (01:05:58):
How long did you stay at the lawn.

Speaker 5 (01:05:59):
For I was not too long, and then I was
told to come inside. Yeah I was. I was young,
so you know, I can't exactly remember, but yeah, it's
a small punishment from my older brother. Yeah he got
me too. I don't know if it's a punishment. But

(01:06:21):
he had a metal pipe in the vice and he
put iron filings in it, and he told me, told
me to look through the end of the just look
inside the pipe, and then on the other side he
blew into the pipe and yeah, I got iron filings

(01:06:43):
in my eye, and then it doesn't feel too nice.

Speaker 2 (01:06:47):
I can't imagine that, Ben, Thank you. Wow, Marcus, not me,
but I remember my brother told me once when he
was working as an apprentice at the garrett, he did
something wrong and for punishment, the boss made him move
water from one paddle on the fore court to another
with a spoon. Goodness, get in touched, Marcus. So we're
going to talk before the news. Quick down, get you
through punishments, crawl in on you. Well, maybe unusual or effective,

(01:07:09):
strangely effective, that's kind of what we're on about tonight.
Or lessons you have taught your effective, lessons you have
taught your children that'll do it. Oh eight hundreds, you
know the rest here till twelve smeg Knives coming to
New World on the thirteenth of July. I'm just the messenger.
I'm not ready into it, just letting you know people

(01:07:30):
that's happening. By the way, you know, there's been all
these stories in the paper about a group of a
family that brought a house and they've got penguins in
the throwing the real estate agent. It's like, where was that?
I've read that artic about four different times. I can't
work out where it was. So if you know about that, yeah,
that's not a top I sort to thick with the
punishment topic because I'm enjoying this. Keep those text texts

(01:07:52):
of God called some more Calls will be great too.
But yeah, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty inspirational and
inspired punishments that you look back now, I think jeepers, creepers,
what were they thinking? Get in touch if you want to,
as I say, Hettel twelve, anything else up for it?
World cut? What are we going to do to stop

(01:08:13):
matches being decided by penalty shootouts? How else could you
sort those games out? I wonder all if the goals
were bigger, there'd be more goals, smaller ball. I don't
know the answer, but some of you might want to
say something about that. There's obviously figures each year of
how many of the matches, or each four years, how
many the matches are decided by penalty kicks. I wonder
if that's increasing more teams playing defensively. So get in

(01:08:38):
touch if you want to talk about these things. And yes, Lucky,
you cut being off. That was s cladding quickly. Yes,
I thought so. Didn't like the way that was going.
I'd extremely untidy, sunny. He was going to Tidy's room
every night for a week and didn't. I was so
fed up. I throw his clothes out the window, then rained.
His clothes got SOAKEDY had nothing to wear to school
dance that night. He was fourteen, and tidy up his

(01:09:01):
room when he asked after that his home wasn't that
his room was at the front of the house and
he didn't go to the dance. Y yeah, yeah, yeah,
ye ye yeah. Breaking news, not much. He hasn't been
exciting breaking news since the medal was found on Friday.
Keep during your news, We'll get jacked up for the
next hour. People. I want crow ba are you and
just straight away because we'll give you more time. Oh

(01:09:23):
eight hundred eighty ten eighty email if you can also
want to too. Nine to nine two and some discussion
about Michael Law was going for count We're going for
parliament in Waitetucky for New zeal On first. Obviously he
does live in there electorally he lives in Cromwell. Wasn't
wroang a nui. He's the one guy I don't ever
want to debate. Touch a extraordinary arguer. Oh yeah, avoid

(01:09:45):
that one like the plague. But yes, hit till twelve o'clock.
We want to talk afterwards, and we'll talk about penalties
also if they're destroying football, hit'll twelve no fask give
us a call. Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty Yogi,
this is Marcus Good evening.

Speaker 11 (01:10:00):
Hi MICUs, long time listener of the show. Thank you
very much. I just wanted to talk about when he said,
how can we decide the football game if you don't
want to go into penalties? I had an interesting idea
since I was playing football in high school. We should
take one player off each team after every two or
three minutes, and it would be pretty fun to see
how it turns out. Also, Rock Papers is not a

(01:10:22):
bad answers in my opinion.

Speaker 2 (01:10:25):
What was the second one?

Speaker 11 (01:10:27):
Rock represent?

Speaker 2 (01:10:28):
Yeah? Did you see the games today?

Speaker 4 (01:10:32):
Yes?

Speaker 11 (01:10:33):
I've didn't managed to get some time to because I
was working, but I did see the highlights of the
games yesterday. It's pretty pretty heartbreaking to see Netherlands and
Germany go out. It was Van Dyke's last year, but
I'd love to see the guy at least threat semifinals.

Speaker 2 (01:10:50):
I just one of penalties are a fair judgment because
it's a different skill from because within penalty kicks there's
no team workers there.

Speaker 11 (01:10:59):
Yeah, that's true. It's more about your placement and how
well you are, how strong you're mentally, because that's what
it all comes down, right, How long can you handle
pressure and.

Speaker 2 (01:11:09):
A huge amount of pressure on the goalkeeper?

Speaker 11 (01:11:12):
Oh yeah, especially I really recommend Argentina's goalkeepers, especially his
performance in the last World Cup. Regarding penalties, He's just
brilliant with his He's pretty strong mentally and he's present
with guessing where people are going to go. So it
does take a lot of a lot of head space

(01:11:33):
to kind of get to there.

Speaker 2 (01:11:34):
They would know which players favored which directions wouldn't.

Speaker 11 (01:11:38):
They Yeah, for most of the players, they do. But
the interesting thing is players also know that, so they
prepare themselves up to it.

Speaker 2 (01:11:46):
So what's the society. Do you kick the way you
normally kick or do you kick a different way? It'd
be hard to know what For your double block, it's
probably the best thing would be to get it generated randomly,
because then you yourself wouldn't know. Yeah, it's quite interesting,
isn't it.

Speaker 11 (01:12:00):
Yeah, if I don't know what I'm going to do,
hold my opponents.

Speaker 2 (01:12:04):
So yes, to write something randomly and just kick it
that way. Nice to talk, Yogi, Thank you, Steve, it's Marcus.
Good evening.

Speaker 12 (01:12:12):
Yeah, looks on my phone a little bit to two
ideas for games, and one was to remove a play
from the side or alter remove the goalies.

Speaker 4 (01:12:29):
I love.

Speaker 2 (01:12:29):
Yeah, your your phone line has just suddenly gone terrible, Steve.
But you know what, that's what's happening for you. That's better?

Speaker 4 (01:12:41):
Is that better?

Speaker 13 (01:12:42):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:12:42):
Honestly, you go back and listen to it, it's like
sounds like a dark before. That's a great idea, removing
the goalie.

Speaker 6 (01:12:50):
Yeah, because if there then as still a bit of
teamwork and all of that.

Speaker 5 (01:12:53):
Still hanging around at the back and defend the goal.

Speaker 4 (01:12:55):
But the.

Speaker 2 (01:12:57):
Great speculators you could you could cool from you could
score from the other side. Just do the quick kick
it up and it's a great idea.

Speaker 17 (01:13:05):
Yeah cool, thank you.

Speaker 2 (01:13:06):
Yeah, okay, well into that getting rid of the goalkeeper.
When I was fourteen, I went out for a few
hours one night, after my parents had told me not to.
It was winter in the days before mobile phones. When
not home, my parents had locked all the doors, even
the garage door, and would not let me know. I
slipped in the backyard. It was freezing. Our dog came

(01:13:28):
and slipped beside me. What a gorgeous story. Growing up,
if me or my brother ever closed a door too
hard or slammed when upset, whether that be at home
or out in the car, my old man would stop
and make us open and close the door five hundred times.
Work a treat. Slamming doors a bit peeve of mine. Now.
Also often would find the contents of our bedrooms left

(01:13:50):
in large rubbish bags if they're untidy. Some people have
liked the Star Wars on the start with the doctor
who hobbage, with the last homage with the last caller.
Oh someone's he's a very big day here Marcus ted
cutter's sister's hair and hit the rum. What does that mean?

(01:14:12):
A good evening? At the last World Cup and twenty
twenty two, only five matches went to penalties. There's three
already now is there? Because there went penalties in the
Is there two or three already? Might be two? A
I could google that up number of matches World Cup
decided by penalties? Can you do that for me, Dan,

(01:14:36):
And we'll see if there's Because if there's more and
more games with penalties, then it means the teams are
getting more defensive. We're probably to change it. Laurie Marcus welcomes.

Speaker 16 (01:14:45):
Yeah, hey, there's some sort of teaser on TV one.
I think it was about the English soccer team that
never never won a shootout.

Speaker 2 (01:14:56):
Well, it's quite a good film. Apparently it's it's going
but yes, it's with their old coach and they say
it's very good.

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

Speaker 2 (01:15:02):
Yeah, someone rang the other night. It seems to be
re elected. The guy looks for every much like him,
and he himself had choked i think, on a penalty shootout,
and then he became the coach.

Speaker 16 (01:15:15):
Yeah, yeah, but you know it's a pretty cool or pretty.

Speaker 2 (01:15:19):
Cruel, so you never recover. I wouldn't be terrible because
of course, you know, you know, you can just see
yourself being the one that's going to kick it straight
to the goalie or miss the goal. Altogether, it's brutal.

Speaker 16 (01:15:31):
Some of these goalies, they sort of work, sort of
try and mesmerize people.

Speaker 2 (01:15:37):
Well, I think I wasn't watching the match. I had
a council day to day, but people were doing the
stop start running, which apparently was a disaster. You just
want to know, you know, like trying to sort of
psyche them out there, but you just want to kick
it as hard as you can. I think that at
least that way, you're going out with dignity.

Speaker 16 (01:15:55):
But the old cleaning the parade ground with a toothbrush
sort of punishment, that used to be the sort of
thing that was threatened, you know, when you're in the army,
let's see you guys just would be sent up to
the military prison used to be up at ad More basically,
and I think it was what was one of the
inter terance I tried to.

Speaker 2 (01:16:16):
Yeah, that's always strikes me. It's been a bit of mine,
that's but fair enough.

Speaker 16 (01:16:20):
I'm trying to recall. Remember there was a guy, he
was a member of parliament that the need in South
I think he had been a teacher, and I remember
was he the one that was sticking tennis balls into kids?

Speaker 15 (01:16:34):
Was it.

Speaker 16 (01:16:36):
The ones who are talking in class? Is he trying
to stick and stuff from the tennis ball in their mouths?
Or there was something?

Speaker 2 (01:16:42):
I think it was a camp in the Kitlands. Was
I thought, yeah, sorry and forced it and taped it.

Speaker 16 (01:16:52):
You know, they would be regarded as cool and unusual
these days.

Speaker 2 (01:16:56):
Yes, I don't know if it was proven, but yeah,
the police decided it wasn't the public interest to punish,
to prosecute him. Well, that was a climate basic case
against them.

Speaker 4 (01:17:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:17:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 16 (01:17:10):
But when the cat mentioned about the health camps before,
it wasn't an optional thing.

Speaker 2 (01:17:16):
Oh no, I realized that.

Speaker 16 (01:17:18):
Yeah. I spent time in uh Chumley, uh the one
up in Governor's Bay, Commey home as a as a kid.

Speaker 4 (01:17:29):
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 16 (01:17:29):
It was usually people that in the distress and the
family and and that sort of stuff that and they
were actually compared to other places I've been sort of
the old health comely health campus like Club Med. Basically
it was it was pretty good.

Speaker 2 (01:17:50):
Are you comparing that to Boys Homes Lourie, Yeah, yeah,
what a pretty grim.

Speaker 16 (01:17:56):
Yeah well there's a six or seven year old. Yeah,
I don't remember the they had a well, a number
of nuns and sort of boys and stuff like that.
But one of the starkest things members kids used to
they went their bed, make them stand in the middle
of the dormitory and stick their whip pajamas over their

(01:18:19):
head basically and leaving there. But that type of thing,
you know, and other than yeah, hell yeah, but uh,
you know, and there was you know, quite a bit
of corporal stuff as well, one of the old wrapping
over the knuckles and all that sort of stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:18:40):
Ry Larry. None of it sounds remotely good or healing
for for just yeah, yeah, it just sounds ghastly. You've
done well to recover obviously.

Speaker 15 (01:18:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:18:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 16 (01:18:51):
They are just touching on another item in the news.
I don't know. They've been going on about these the
ward the culinary awards for the h and and they've
got a two star one down in Queenstown called Yes,
I'm just wondering there's going to be a bit of
trouble because there's a restaurant called The Essence in Fielding

(01:19:13):
and they opened up another branch recently in Palmistan.

Speaker 2 (01:19:17):
So we've got to I don't know anything about the Essence.
I googled that, but I've ever even seen where it
isn't but the food looks fantastic. Yeah, not in field No, No.

Speaker 16 (01:19:30):
Actually they're not too bad. But yeah, they they're not.
They're not much on the stard, but they actually are
quite good. I go to the one in Parmi quader it.
They took over a big restaurant of basically called Breakers
and when it's it's more like a family te restaurant.
But yeah, so i'd imagine they'll probably somebody will be
wanting to now they've achieved the two stars, will probably

(01:19:54):
be wanting to preserve their.

Speaker 4 (01:19:57):
Their label.

Speaker 16 (01:19:58):
Yeah who got the name first?

Speaker 2 (01:20:04):
Yeah, it's uh, it's only been opened since September last year,
so it's a roof and you've read. I don't know
where the guy frog it's come from, but I mean
they got they gave it two stars. I presume that
it's a big deal.

Speaker 16 (01:20:16):
It's a big deal apparently. Yeah, whereas the one of
fielding has been running with quite a few years, you know,
and they're they're Indian, you know. I think they may
be New Zealand born, but they sort of Indian family
basically do a pretty good job, so yeah, they might
be able to cruise along on the on the reputation.

Speaker 2 (01:20:35):
Goniel Verry, nice to talk, Thank you, Steve. It's Marcus.
Good evening.

Speaker 17 (01:20:40):
Yeah you know, Marcus, how are you good?

Speaker 2 (01:20:42):
Thanks Steve.

Speaker 17 (01:20:46):
The penalty shootout. The penalty shootout is one of the
reasons why the goalies wear such bright clothing, so.

Speaker 2 (01:20:54):
Tell me more.

Speaker 17 (01:20:55):
It's the same science behind a worker wearing a hype
is a piece of clothing. Your eyes are attractive to
the brighteners sort of standout, so you generally kick the
ball where your eyes are looking. So that's my goalie
is a part of being able to differentiate for the
rest of the players wear such bright clothing, so your
eye is attracted to it and it theoretically you're going

(01:21:19):
to kick the ball to where that bright color is.

Speaker 2 (01:21:23):
Are you a footballer?

Speaker 17 (01:21:26):
No, I just thought about the theory in my head,
but it's pretty.

Speaker 2 (01:21:30):
Good because I don't know, because I imagine the way the
games will go. You just it can't be long. I
mean football coaches must have specialist penalty experts they substitute
on at the end of the match if they think
it's going to go to penalty goals? Would they would
they do that?

Speaker 15 (01:21:50):
No?

Speaker 17 (01:21:51):
Absolutely, there'd be at that level. That'd be there'd be
a coach for walking on the field, walking after taking
a penalty, standing up, sitting down. There'd be coaches galore.
But that's why they wear that such the bright clothing
because in that micro instant, your your eyes are going
to mic right to the brightness, and therefore the ball
is going to go in that direction as well, which
is generally the Glipp.

Speaker 2 (01:22:15):
And Google agre. I never thought of that, britt Steve
a Google agrees with that. Brittet's Marcus, So what's that, Marcus?
Subtle psychological distruction of Briton. Sorry, hold your horses, Brett, Marcus,
good evening.

Speaker 12 (01:22:28):
Yes, Marcus, Yeah, it's always a penalty shootout in the
finals for some reason or not always.

Speaker 4 (01:22:37):
But well, did we get.

Speaker 2 (01:22:39):
The numbers of how many penalty matches at World Cups?

Speaker 12 (01:22:42):
Well, the last time, how many?

Speaker 2 (01:22:44):
How many previous tournaments do you know? Because there's three
last one.

Speaker 12 (01:22:49):
I want if you, if you're a gambler and went
the game to go to a penalty shootout, you would
have made money in the last lot.

Speaker 2 (01:22:57):
Yes, terrible.

Speaker 12 (01:23:01):
Well, I've got Norway.

Speaker 2 (01:23:03):
This are they increasing per tournament down There's been thirty
five matches with penalty kickouts since seventy eight, seventy eight,
eighty two, eighty six, nineteen ninety four, ninety eight, two thousand,
two thousand and four, two thousand and eight, two thousand.

Speaker 12 (01:23:22):
Yeah, that's more than.

Speaker 2 (01:23:25):
Yeah, what you're saying. What you saying there, Brittin.

Speaker 12 (01:23:27):
Will be well more than thirty percent of the finals.

Speaker 2 (01:23:31):
Pal it was only three at the last one, so
it was five in the five in the last one,
Dan tells me. In the final, I think Argentina the
Netherlands Argentina France was penalty. It was fantastic to watch,
but it was and four in the one before that.
So it's four in the one before that. So what

(01:23:53):
I've got Norway and your your you could do well and.

Speaker 12 (01:23:59):
Whose coach do your give it?

Speaker 2 (01:24:00):
Where are they where you want them to be?

Speaker 12 (01:24:03):
Well? Loose because they're playing Norway. I don't know even
where they.

Speaker 2 (01:24:10):
Sporting.

Speaker 12 (01:24:11):
No, I don't know coke.

Speaker 2 (01:24:13):
Is it called cokes? I would never Ivory Coast.

Speaker 12 (01:24:20):
They changed their name.

Speaker 2 (01:24:21):
I think I think they give it the French pronunciation
for the the Ivory Coast. I presume it's because we're
the elephants are a the coke Ivory. It's between the
countries that border it are Liberia named after the free slaves,
Guinea Marley Bukino Faso in Ghana, Duncan Ghanaeria is over

(01:24:44):
there somewhere next next to Duncan Gharana goes Nigeria, Togo, Ghana.

Speaker 12 (01:24:50):
That's all the cocoa, that's what you're.

Speaker 4 (01:24:53):
On to it.

Speaker 2 (01:24:54):
It's a very narrow band where the cocoa grows.

Speaker 12 (01:24:58):
Ecuador, they saw they're in the cocoa band somewhere.

Speaker 2 (01:25:02):
Problem might be a connected with in chocolate and your
quick or reflexes or something. They all seem to be
about the same altitude, don't they. Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela, Ivory Coast.

Speaker 12 (01:25:16):
They go sugar and all that. Whether they grow that Australia,
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:25:21):
Well, they used to grow a lot of it in
Fiji with the cane trains, but you don't hear about
them anymore.

Speaker 12 (01:25:26):
You know snakes there there's steaks in Australia. You wouldn't
want to be running around.

Speaker 2 (01:25:30):
They know snakes and Fiji.

Speaker 20 (01:25:35):
Dad used to go the great place for holiday.

Speaker 2 (01:25:41):
Oh business was business seeing.

Speaker 12 (01:25:45):
Oh there's they started the sewing and the old days
over there started the one. Well, the same machines. You
don't have a same machine the machine t shirts over
here and instead China got it all now.

Speaker 2 (01:26:00):
Oh yeah, Fiji became a rebig textile manufacturer and shoes
and all sorts of stuff.

Speaker 12 (01:26:04):
Didn't they Well they didn't have the brand new sign
machine they have any old.

Speaker 2 (01:26:11):
Role and Roll was the old man in the textiles game.

Speaker 12 (01:26:15):
If you wanted the same machine game wheeler dealer, if
you wanted to get it.

Speaker 2 (01:26:22):
Sounds like a character did it from you his soul.

Speaker 12 (01:26:27):
Well, I don't know. England was still in it. So
if they and everyone will be unhappy, you will not everyone.
A lot of them.

Speaker 2 (01:26:36):
Will certainly hear about a Brittaine to talk. Pretty five
past ten, I'm going to take a break, Someone says,
poor old Pete and Rude. That will be Pete wolf
Camp and Rude Climb passed. They would be the Dutch
contingent on the news talk z B. I don't know
if any other poor old hither. I suppose too with
the South African heritage. That's pretty much how ethnic diversity

(01:26:58):
gone from the World Cup.

Speaker 13 (01:26:59):
Isn't it.

Speaker 2 (01:27:00):
We're all gone. I can't think there representing any other
countries on the staff. Are they Dan? I don't normally
try and profiled as he'd be staff from a racial
point of view, but I can't. I think, yeah, you're
right rude, and it's just the Dutch in the South Africans.
I can't think of anyone else. Well, it's a worry.
Twenty six past ten. The most penalty kicks was last

(01:27:21):
time with five, so I don't necesarily know that it's growing.
I would be in favor if there was a final
and it went to an extra time, was still a
draw to have another match, but I don't know whether
logistics if you're running a tournament. I wonder when Trump's
going to turn up again. He seems to have lost
the love of it. He played football at university. I

(01:27:41):
think barn played football too. He's a defender. He's so
enjoyed reading about Trump's He's really passionate about football. I
think when his big days when he's nightclubing in America
in the seventies was when they had a big getting
a professional league, and I think a lot of the
stars were in New York. So yeah, he did play.

(01:28:01):
So just so you know, it's a three sport athlete.
Trump a great athlete. They say he could have probably
played pro ball as a picture through eighty miles an hour,
physically and mentally gifted. Whether that's true or not. New
York Military Academy ironically regard that couldn't go to war

(01:28:23):
because of his old whatever he had be in touch
if you want to. Until eight ninety fifty eight. By
the way, a drawn match was a replay game. That's
the way it should be. Oh yeah, why are you
saying the tournament would be too crowded? What do you
mean with that? How do you mean?

Speaker 15 (01:28:46):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:28:46):
But if you just replayed the final, though, couldn't you? Yeah?
Obviously you can't reply the do replays in the semis
and the quarters because then you're getting running short of
venues and stuff. But I just wonder, if your final
is a draw, then you couldn't play that again? Why
couldn't you? We are talking about weird punishments that you've
punished your children with that worked, or that you've been

(01:29:08):
punished with that was interesting. So it's punishments and football
Marcus FIFA World Cup soccer. Instead of penalty shootout to
flate the ball every time the ball goes out of
the sideline, or all players consumed strong drink every three minutes,
you'd be interesting. Scale, scale, scale, The penalty share is

(01:29:29):
the most exciting part of what is otherwise a dreadfully
boring sport. Before penalties, they tossed a coin or drew lots,
big stick, little stick. Nineteen sixty eight, we drew a
Soviet Union zero zero in the semi final, drew the
final versus Yugoslavia. They played a replay two days later
and one two nil. We are talking penalty shootouts, whether

(01:29:49):
they are fair and strange, punishments that you were punished with,
not cruel ones, because I find that upsetting to listen to.
That's what we are talking about tonight. Get in touch. Yes,
come on, let's be hearing from your eight hundred and
eighty ten eighty and nine to nine to text. He's
the Germans went for good at their penalties. Paraguay's through yep.

(01:30:12):
So there's something else you want to mention too. The
knives are coming back to New World, the smegs. I'm
saying that not because I support you well, but you
need to get involved because you'll be bringing me in
two months and saying, oh, well, I've got all these vouchers.
What I thought was most interesting, right A guy rang
the show probably three year ago and he got all

(01:30:36):
his stickers from the Island Bay car park. People would
drop them, So that might be your best business hanging
around the car park. He had all sorts of them.
People just throw them ai or drop them. So come on,
anything else you want to mention in the final go round?
Marcus any Irish on the staff Picco low Piece professional
footballer plays for the Shamrock Rovers in Island. Born in Ireland,

(01:30:59):
he represents the Cape Verde national team. Cheers. Neil Well
always thought we should have reemployed Miles because Miles were
the most passionate of the footballers. Always good talking about football,
Miles Davis, but tremendous voice. Do you want to go
with a voice with such command? You can just see
him on the sideline yelling at matches anyway, Jee old

(01:31:26):
broadcast as we have known. Anyway, get in touch. You
want to talk aboutny of these topics. I'm happy to
talk right through the midnight. But give us a holler.
Effective and cruel, effective and unusual punishments, let's call it that.
And penalty kicks, how we feel about those and smeag knives.
Now there might be something different, they might be something
the same, but all the lines are available for you now,

(01:31:48):
so jump in make your points. Knowing it's interesting in
the world. Cop. If I'd knowing it was going to
be this interesting, I would have subscribed to the package sooner.
I still don't know whether I'm going to get I
think the kids were quite into it. Well, they're quite
long watches to long matches to watch us found you

(01:32:08):
at your cell phone on your map, be find yourself
looking at videos because the football is a bit sort
of the actions a bit slow, but that's if you're
not supporting a team, if you're just coming in cold
watching Paraguay Germany. Marcus. Teens who don't clean up their room,
take the washing to the laundry, or do chores. Wash
all their favorites hang up on hangers around your lounge

(01:32:29):
on the kurt Rods etc. As since you create a
shop ad prices like unload the dishwasher four times this
week to tidier room, have them buy back the things
they love. So Beck is turning her house into a
shop and selling the kids clothes back to them through chores. Wow,
that's a good thing to do. Liking that a lot.

(01:32:50):
These are good suggestions, people, Marcus. The mini series Dear
England about the English football team is brilliant. Gives you
such an insight into the enormous pressure and shame they
made to feel when they lose. The lead actor had
a prositic nose made and wore false teeth to make
to look like the actual player worth watching, Charlie, I take.

Speaker 4 (01:33:09):
That from you.

Speaker 2 (01:33:09):
Charlie has been good. Thank you. Come on full board.
We light me up. What if you got less a
bit of a quick flurry, get the chet going with
the punishments you have some good You might have some
rural farming ones tied to the clothesline, that sort of stuff,
some of that stole the tractor or whatever they did anyway,
being touched welcome, Marcus, till midnight. Anything else you want
to talk about. That's the plans, Dan. Interestingly enough, I

(01:33:32):
was reading this earlier. Tonight is the anniversary of some
of you will be experts on this. It's the anniversary
of the Tunguska event. Two thousand square caves of Siberian
forests flattened and scorched, largest impact event and recorded history.
But the meteorite didn't hit. It exploded. That's why there

(01:33:53):
was no crater. There was fifty miles long. Size of Manhattan.
It's always the size of Manhattan, always the size of Manhattan.
Twenty four away from twenty two, away from eleven back soon,
greasy if you want to get in touch away had
an eighty beven as Mark is welcome, Hi Ben, Yeah.

Speaker 13 (01:34:16):
How are you good?

Speaker 2 (01:34:17):
Thank you?

Speaker 21 (01:34:19):
Hey?

Speaker 23 (01:34:19):
I reckon with this football shootout instead of having a shootout,
I was thinking, like every person in the team, including
the goalie, could have a shot at the goal, but
from the opposite end of the field, like a full
length shot, but no goalie on the other side, so

(01:34:46):
both things. Both teams could do that, and whoever gets
the most goals would win.

Speaker 2 (01:34:53):
Obviously it would be fairer, wouldn't it.

Speaker 23 (01:34:57):
Well, would sort of give everybody a chance and the
team wouldn't it would give an overall sort of hope
to call it an overall expertise of the team.

Speaker 2 (01:35:08):
He's the best, and make it a bit of spectacle.

Speaker 23 (01:35:12):
Yeah yeah, I don't know how that get on though,
doing a full length shot. Yeah about that?

Speaker 2 (01:35:19):
Oh you take the wind into consideration and stuff, and
then you'd fang it would be good.

Speaker 18 (01:35:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 17 (01:35:24):
So yeah, so we think about I'll be in to that.

Speaker 2 (01:35:27):
Thank you, Bev and Jeff.

Speaker 15 (01:35:31):
Marcus. Jeff talking about unusual punishments. I was in boarding
school and Timaru Boys High in the late fifties and
as a third former they had a third form dormitory
and apparently I was a bit disruptive, so they put
me in with the fifth formers to quiet me down,

(01:35:54):
which may not sound like any big deal, but the
forth form dorms were old brick horse stalls with no
glass windows. In Tebruary and the winter, I'll tell you
it was not the best place to be.

Speaker 2 (01:36:13):
It sounds grim.

Speaker 15 (01:36:16):
Yeah, well, I would say in these days would probably
be called child child cruelty. But we didn't know any
better then. You just took what was given here and
carried on.

Speaker 2 (01:36:27):
Did you feel it was wrong?

Speaker 15 (01:36:30):
Not really know?

Speaker 2 (01:36:32):
So there was no windows you're in a you're in
a stable.

Speaker 15 (01:36:35):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, the brick brick stables.

Speaker 4 (01:36:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 15 (01:36:41):
No, dormitories. You know, they were dormitories, but they were
just brick, just with They used to call them the
open near dormitories. High yep, yep, yep.

Speaker 2 (01:36:53):
They farmer people. Were you a farmer kid? Were you
like from the land?

Speaker 4 (01:36:57):
No?

Speaker 15 (01:36:57):
No, I was a town from christ But I put
on the boarding school because my father had problems. So
Mom shot me shot from my brother down there because it.

Speaker 2 (01:37:08):
Just seems so grim, doesn't it.

Speaker 15 (01:37:10):
See the other the other probably not so bad punishment
was when I was in the Army and got caught
a wall. Solong between basic core training or the basic training,
you've got a three day break in between. And because
I got caught a wall the week so beforehand, I

(01:37:33):
spent along weekend in the sergeant's miss peeling spuds and onions.

Speaker 2 (01:37:40):
That wouldn't be too bad, would it, Well it wasn't.

Speaker 15 (01:37:44):
It wasn't all that good when you wanted to be home.

Speaker 2 (01:37:47):
Where'd you go on a.

Speaker 15 (01:37:49):
Just into Christ it's from Burnham. There's another crew. Unfortunately
I went at the same time as three other guys
went and they had a very bad accident when Jago
got steering wheel through his skull and that, and they
I heard them, we're going to make an example of
these people. And how I got caught up in the

(01:38:09):
same the others got locked up. I got just got
put into the sergeant's mess.

Speaker 2 (01:38:18):
Did he survive with the steering wheel through his head?

Speaker 15 (01:38:21):
Yeah he did, Yeah, he wasn't wasn't too good for all?

Speaker 2 (01:38:25):
Was he the same.

Speaker 4 (01:38:27):
Prayers?

Speaker 15 (01:38:28):
I know he was eventually? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:38:30):
Did you give a nickname?

Speaker 15 (01:38:32):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:38:33):
Okay, yeah, okay, do you think you wow? Dot Marcus evening?

Speaker 8 (01:38:38):
Hell?

Speaker 6 (01:38:38):
No, how are you?

Speaker 11 (01:38:39):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:38:40):
Good dot dot dot?

Speaker 4 (01:38:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (01:38:41):
Good good, good, good good good.

Speaker 4 (01:38:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:38:44):
It's sort of it's sort of a punishment, but it's
more like a learning thing. My granddaughters were given the
opportunity to rear a couple of calves each and when
they got old enough and sent away to the works.
The idea was that they'd get the money least a
little bit of grazing feet. So that was okay. We
got two weeks and two feeding and the youngest one

(01:39:07):
decided that she'd had enough, so she never reared any
cars that year, but the oldest one did and they
went off to the works and she got the money
for them, and then her mum suggested that they go
on an overseas trip and that if she wanted to come,
she could use the money that she got from her CAF.
So she paid for her air fares and some of

(01:39:29):
the accommodation and some of the side trips that they
did around Europe out of the money for her briefe
she sent to the works and the younger one had
to stay home. So when I so the next year,
I said to the youngest one, I said, look, if

(01:39:50):
you save up the money for the air fares and
half of the camper vans, I'll take you to Australia
for twelve days.

Speaker 16 (01:39:58):
She was amazing at doing.

Speaker 6 (01:40:01):
All these little jobs to earn money, and so we
went away to Australia for wait twelve days in the
camper van.

Speaker 12 (01:40:10):
So she'd learned.

Speaker 6 (01:40:10):
So she learned some good work ethics. Then consequences.

Speaker 2 (01:40:16):
Yeah, it seems like one lesson, well learned. Dot, that's great,
thank you for that. There we go fourteen to eleven,
twelve to eleven good texts. Keep those going. The number
is eight hundred and eighty ten eighty. Someone said, a
light to bright light has fallen over aut On about
ten thirty. That's twenty minutes ago when I've seen that,

(01:40:37):
let us know, could be a meteor Writer's International Meteorite Day. Peter,
this is Marcus. Welcome and good evening, and there.

Speaker 24 (01:40:45):
Marcus stare of disciplined, disciplined, self disciplined. Basically what happened
was without in the country. It is in the winter time,
and the are you kid at that stage? It was yes,
Basically we're in the back of the farm and there's
winter time to feed the to feed the cows turnips.

(01:41:05):
So parent of the of who I was with his
boy Ivan, what was in the back of the farm
and so basically, well he was shooting arrows across to
each other. So rather than going get the arrow, like
you know, it's quite a long walk to shoot the
air and you're going to go and walk and come
back and get the arrow. So I said, what we

(01:41:26):
see for me saved time rather than.

Speaker 2 (01:41:29):
Government hang one. We talked about with a bow, Yeah, a.

Speaker 24 (01:41:32):
Barren area, but you know the practice arrows with a
little couple in in on it, ye called a you're
basically appose a target what you call it like practice
area you call them. And so we was out there
was so we said, okay, what we'll do is we'll
shoot the arrow to each other, not deliberately shaming you

(01:41:52):
at each other. So it was all started. We probably
did it about probably half a dozen times, shooting across
to each other like you probably, I know, maybe like
fifty meters to each other. Week that well, and then
then Ivan he shot the arrow to me and I
got the son of my eye and I couldn't see
the thing. And the next man I was yelling out,

(01:42:13):
watch out, watch out, and I couldn't see it. Next
on I couldn't see it Nixon, and I had the
arrow in the middle of my nose. It went through
one side and come out the middle of the nose
for the other one.

Speaker 2 (01:42:22):
Goodness year, this story is from us from well, this
is quite a good story.

Speaker 24 (01:42:25):
So this is a true story. So he is in
the back of the farm. I said, they might know something,
know the story, something will love him, do you know
the story? So he was on the back, so straight
away Ivan yelled out, So he's dead, the dead. You know,
he's got an arrow in his nose and must have
Butler to stopp putting the turnips on the tray for
he's feeding out the cows. That was the last priority
at that stage. So basically becomes straight up on the

(01:42:49):
track door if he's with the tray on. And as
he pushed the turnips off, and then we was on
the back of the farm and he took out here
he was in the back, on the back of the
tray with an arrow based in the middle.

Speaker 4 (01:42:58):
Of my nose.

Speaker 24 (01:42:59):
And I didn't know.

Speaker 15 (01:43:00):
What to do.

Speaker 24 (01:43:00):
He wasn't a doctor. I wasn't a doctor.

Speaker 22 (01:43:04):
You're a child, yeah, I was only.

Speaker 24 (01:43:06):
About probably about twelve then. So he did. He shot
us back of the back of the from the track
and the trail all the way back to the house
and he got hold of the phone. And then he
got hold of the phone and he said, oh, we've
got a bit of a problem here. The doctor's name
was Peter Lay. That was the doctor here. And he
put these passed away there of course, and he said, well,
you've got two choices, mister Butler. He said, you can

(01:43:28):
even put miss the young Peter in the car with
the arrow in his nose, take him down to buy surgeon,
down to the doctor surgery, or you can pull out yourself.
And mister Butler is saying, well, only exactly the same thing.
What either you do and I do it, it's goant
to not be nice kidding on the on the back

(01:43:48):
of the car for an arrow and he knows it's
pretty hard. And they said, oh, he said, what did
you pull the arrow out? Really slowly and it will
start to bleed. But lie him down exactly what we did,
he said, mister butlery Yet who slowly pulled the arrow out?
I mean knows that the bread of course. Then I
just laid down on one of those old wood bunch

(01:44:10):
and the old old hairs they have the seats of
the wood you put the wood underneath it. I sat
there enough, I said, it's given. The sit there for
ten minutes, called over here, and it's luckly what happened. Now,
if they've got carter around the nose, stop bleeding. It's fears.
I've still got the scar now where it went through
the nose went through the middle of one. And it's
a fair thinking story. So not many people can say
they had an hour through their nose, can't they?

Speaker 2 (01:44:31):
So it went through one side and out the other,
like where the nostrils are.

Speaker 24 (01:44:34):
Yeah, they go from the outside of the nose, went
to the middle of the nostril and it just sat there.
It's just a freak and they look funny.

Speaker 2 (01:44:42):
We've got to let it go better ut commercials. But
that's a great story. Thank you for that. And a
crawel and not crawl strange and unusual punishments that might
have worked on might have not worked that you received.
That would be good to hear from twelve past eleven.
And ways they can decide the World Cup that's not
penalty goals? Are you happy with penalty goals? They are

(01:45:02):
the topics for the end of the show. If you
got something out of the box that's I can handle that,
I'll put my earphones and I'll see if I can
see the other interesting news out there that you might
want to opine about. And Michael Law's perhaps going back
into Parliament for New Zealand. First I would think of
he goes for White Tucky, he'd be at the top
four or he'll get in because I'll get five percent

(01:45:23):
and the list of nego would be Winston, then Shane Jones.
Goodness me, he shouldn't be returned, but he probably will
be because his deputy and Laws would be in at three,
so be a dead sir, he'd be back. That's if
he runs, and he hasn't comedy. This isn't comment on speculation,
but he didn't say he wasn't going to do it.
So and White Tucky is the electorate Timodoo down Timodoo

(01:45:46):
wonaka Cromwell, but the MP four White Tucky. He's an
invisible man. Miles Anderson. I've heard nothing about him. He's
a cocky if farmer, but he's been pretty quiet. I
don't know. I don't know if he's just been in
there three years or how long he's been there. He's
been there since twenty twenty three, succeeding Jackie Dean. I

(01:46:07):
think it's a blue seat, but whether when or not
against Laws would be hard to know. It'd be pretty
tough to debate. Pretty skilled operator. I'd day with old Lawsy.
You mightn't agree with his politics, but we'd certainly agree
with his ability to win an argument. Be the world
champion that I would think that's him and you might
want to mention that too, And I think that's what
why take. He seems to be the place in Namad

(01:46:27):
who everyone's going complaining about the rates through the roof,
like a thirty percent increase or something like that. But anyway,
I'm just throwing things that if you want to talk
about these things or punishments or anything else, that's the plan.
Before the end. You might have different topics that you
want to mention, and I'm happy as for that. They
might have questions for the last hour, but what have
you got? There might be some other topics from the

(01:46:48):
World's event want to talk about. I can handle pretty
much anything. A lot of talk about all these restaurants
have got mitchellin stars. The government paid six million dollars
for that guide to come here. I don't know whether
it's going to bring tourists, but I think you've got
to acknowledge that the restaurant business in New Zealand has
grown unbelievably with the quality of shifts that we have,

(01:47:11):
and I guess it's a good thing. Yeah. I mean
they're a pretty high end, I would think, and getting
higher endo quite quickly. The price of food seems to
be extraordinary going out. But there we go. Graham, this
is Marcus welcome.

Speaker 9 (01:47:24):
Yeah, the Tunguska Event. I said that way back about
fifty something odd years ago. I was quite infered that
it was apparently a snowy chunk of a comet I
believed to be a carrot meture. And it came roaring

(01:47:48):
in at fairty high speed and detonated about ten kilometers
up in a very remote era of Siberia in nineteen
oh eight. It wasn't visited until about the nineteen twenties.
Way particular scientist now I'm seemed to call that thing

(01:48:09):
flattened about twelve hundred square kilometers of forests. No one
was killed, but quite a few smoldering, smoking reindeer were
found near the hypercenter, and one guy was actually knocked
off his feet to the ground, but he survived. It's

(01:48:30):
a bit of a holy grail of meteaphysics that place,
and it's still being reactively researched.

Speaker 2 (01:48:38):
What'd you say the word torred to read or something
to spell it please.

Speaker 9 (01:48:43):
From Taro Tariff the ball it came from that orbit.
The orbit's been back tracked. But bearing in mind that
came literally out of the sun like Manfield von Ricktoff
and and no one set No one saw it until
it was pretty right on top of them. But it
destroyed a twelve hundred square kilometers of forest that just

(01:49:06):
did native mid air and had an equivalent energy of
about somewhere between twelve and twenty megatons at burst.

Speaker 2 (01:49:16):
What would have caused it? So, if it's ice grayam
and it's coming in low and fast.

Speaker 9 (01:49:21):
What would have tolerated?

Speaker 2 (01:49:24):
What would have would it have been? The the air
resistance would have warmed up the water, so it would
have gone to a guess and then explode.

Speaker 9 (01:49:33):
Is that what it is had violently disrupted deceleration. We're
talking about thousands of negative gees.

Speaker 2 (01:49:40):
But just to just to and I'm asking for patients
with you with this one. Okay, it seemed to explode
in the air.

Speaker 9 (01:49:47):
Right correct, That has been been computer modeled. So what
was seen moment?

Speaker 2 (01:49:56):
So Graham, what was slowing it down coming into the atmosphere?

Speaker 9 (01:50:00):
The atmosphere. It comes in the atmosphere from about probably
about fifty thousand kilometers per hour and going from that
to about zero and probably just a few seconds. So
that's a violent destruction.

Speaker 2 (01:50:14):
So why would it not have hit the earth?

Speaker 9 (01:50:18):
Well, if it had been a solid one, that would have.

Speaker 2 (01:50:22):
You know, it was a media crater.

Speaker 9 (01:50:24):
You know the media crater in Arizona. That's about three
quarters of a kilometer across. That was a piece about
one hundred meters across that survived semi intact to the ground.

Speaker 2 (01:50:38):
Okay, so this was a much big This was fifty
miles across a chunk of ice, and.

Speaker 9 (01:50:44):
I was fifty miles across. I don't know about that.
I did a bit of quite a bit of research
on this particular event computer modeling, and that about fifty
sixty years ago, when I was much younger and.

Speaker 2 (01:50:59):
More a you're a scientist, aren't you?

Speaker 4 (01:51:02):
Well I was.

Speaker 9 (01:51:02):
I was a former astronomer, particularly secializing, and met here after.

Speaker 2 (01:51:08):
Oh sorry, does say sorry, It does say yeah, okay,
forty sixty google.

Speaker 9 (01:51:16):
Stuff in more recent times. It's probably updated out a bit.
But I'm going back about fifty sixty years.

Speaker 2 (01:51:26):
Sixty sixty meters wide. Yeah, you're quite right.

Speaker 9 (01:51:30):
The guy I think was kurlik k u l i
k I think you know. I'm trying to remember back
about fifty six years and I was going hard and
heavy on this particular event. He didn't get into the
area until about nineteen twenty two thereabouts, and he took
some incredible photos of this twelve hundred square kilometers of

(01:51:55):
forest just flatten like matchsticks.

Speaker 2 (01:51:58):
Hey, here's a question, Graham for you. Yep, how often
would something like this happen?

Speaker 9 (01:52:05):
Well, there was another meteor meteorite events nineteen forty seven
called the Sekkoti Arsen event, which had similar characteristics of
the Tengoska event, but on a much more scale than that.
Whilst about probably about a quarter or maybe a fifth

(01:52:27):
of the energy of the Tingoska event, but the Tingoska
event was it did not hit the ground, but the
blast wave was like a theemonucary a burst in terms
of damage. And they've given various estimates of between about
eight and twenty megaton cinema nuclear air bursts to create

(01:52:50):
the effects. This is based on nuclear testing, is the
only thing they got to compare it with.

Speaker 2 (01:52:56):
What was that one called? Could you spell it for me?

Speaker 9 (01:52:58):
Sikoti Arsen sikot hyphen alian and that's I think in
a similar area. It's just but that's a very famous
event to event. I'm glad you remember that.

Speaker 2 (01:53:16):
Yeah, I'm glad I have too. I think it's meteorite
Day two and can I just it's a intational meteorite
day today and can I just say that in news
even I think there's only been twelve meteorites of landed
have been found. That's not many, is it.

Speaker 4 (01:53:30):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (01:53:30):
But most of those that are only between about people's
size and about pumpkin size. And I've seen about three
or four samples of those when I was working at
the National Zermetory in in Wellington.

Speaker 2 (01:53:45):
Yeah, okay, a lot of meteorites found an antactical Is
that true? Because they're easy to find? Are they?

Speaker 9 (01:53:52):
Yes? The reason main reason being is that they stand
out against the ice.

Speaker 2 (01:54:00):
You just see them as you just walk around and
pick them up.

Speaker 9 (01:54:03):
Yep, that's pretty much it.

Speaker 4 (01:54:04):
Yep, yep.

Speaker 2 (01:54:05):
Would there be a hole.

Speaker 9 (01:54:07):
Well, they would, They would land sort of flutter of
the ground. They wouldn't be very very big ones to
be just a little little baby, Sue.

Speaker 2 (01:54:19):
And the Egyptians made metal for meteorite, Is that true?

Speaker 9 (01:54:25):
I'm not sure. Are the most common type of meteor
right that it survives and tacto ground is it's called
a like a stony iron or something has a bit
of something, have it a nickel? And so it depends
on the type of metaite.

Speaker 2 (01:54:43):
Okay, find of very helpful. Graham thank you for all
of that, David, it's Marcus. Good evening, Yeah, yeah, good,
thank you.

Speaker 21 (01:54:51):
That event twenty thirteen over Russia.

Speaker 2 (01:54:55):
Yes it didn't kill any one, but it didn't kill anyone,
but plenty or injured.

Speaker 21 (01:55:01):
Yeah, it blew out classroom windows and set off carol
arms and goodness knows what. And that was quite impressive.
When it showed the streak across the sky and that
ear burst, they thought they were under attack. Actually that Yeah,
it was quite impressive to see.

Speaker 2 (01:55:19):
Chillia Binks meteor meteor at twenty thirteen fifteenth. Yes, that's
right now.

Speaker 21 (01:55:24):
The goalkeeper in football and soccer, I quite like the
idea that have no goalkeeper or that he can't use
his hands.

Speaker 2 (01:55:35):
What tires leagues together tie one arm behind us? I
mean you got, I mean a bit terrible for a goalkeeper.

Speaker 21 (01:55:43):
Hey, wolf Creek is quite impressive, Marcus. In Australia, the
meteor or impact zite there, I didn't know there was.

Speaker 2 (01:55:52):
One, okay, one, and I just thought that was a
horror film.

Speaker 21 (01:55:56):
No income, I was about to say theod income. It's
there's a spot, it's a site.

Speaker 12 (01:56:01):
Look it up.

Speaker 21 (01:56:03):
France. Oh and is a no.

Speaker 2 (01:56:07):
Really well it's really well preserved. It looks really circular.
It's amazing.

Speaker 21 (01:56:11):
He very quiet on the fronts French rugby front.

Speaker 2 (01:56:16):
Yeah, and have you seen them running around christ.

Speaker 21 (01:56:19):
No, that's why I say, And very little has been spoken.
I know French team don't travel well. And now the
last thing is that that chicken new chicken outfit what
are they called Popeye Popeyes? Their site has been scrapped.
They were going to the Papauie and I was reading

(01:56:41):
yesterday that no, they're not going there now, so we're
not getting to Popeyes.

Speaker 2 (01:56:45):
I wonder if they're struggling, because the in the cargo
one looks to me to be quiet. It's opposite KFC,
so it's easy to compare, but not much happening there.

Speaker 21 (01:56:53):
Well, I tell you I had a feed of that
KFC Hot and Spicy boneless, a box of that and
a box of the original, and I tell you what,
it's hard to beat.

Speaker 4 (01:57:05):
It was very long.

Speaker 2 (01:57:06):
So you're still on the healthcake, thanks Marca.

Speaker 21 (01:57:11):
So I treat it as a tree. Hey, I treat
it as a tree.

Speaker 2 (01:57:15):
Judgment. You don't need anything, Dad, you just keeping you honest.
Twenty Brian, this is Marcus welcome.

Speaker 22 (01:57:27):
Very good evening.

Speaker 13 (01:57:28):
How are you bright?

Speaker 2 (01:57:29):
Good? Thanks?

Speaker 4 (01:57:29):
Boy?

Speaker 2 (01:57:30):
Did you call me boy?

Speaker 20 (01:57:31):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:57:32):
You're good on you? I like that.

Speaker 22 (01:57:35):
Yeah, I was looking and regarding that Metea tonight. I'm
out here in Rosselle, the a eighteen thirty at night time,
depending on the wed they can see clear. There's two
satellites come over.

Speaker 4 (01:57:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 22 (01:57:53):
I see them practice every night on a clear night
tonight at the third one is the Ice India Sierra Fierra.

Speaker 2 (01:58:05):
I is it?

Speaker 4 (01:58:06):
Yep?

Speaker 22 (01:58:07):
Yeah, that goes over. It's about eighteen thirty six thirty
and tonight it went from a just a little bit
south of west and it went through to nor north west,
so east.

Speaker 4 (01:58:24):
Sorry.

Speaker 22 (01:58:24):
And the other one is a Chinese one which is
around about three to four minute separation, and that usually
comes straight over from a west to an east. And
I sided both of them tonight. In fact, I've got
my wife took photos of them outside. All you see

(01:58:48):
this thing, the Ice of the Indias year of the
era is we've got very good footage of them.

Speaker 2 (01:58:59):
What's your wife taking a photo through.

Speaker 22 (01:59:03):
Out of her cell phone?

Speaker 2 (01:59:04):
Not good on air?

Speaker 4 (01:59:06):
You know?

Speaker 22 (01:59:08):
Had they're acting to herself owners of two hundred percent
more better than what I one is. Yeah, but no
I get that to get what frequency it isn't on
the handman's the isis is transmitting in morse all the time,

(01:59:28):
and I think it's four seven seven something, as it
was a frequency I have listened, I have. I have
it set on one one transceiver.

Speaker 2 (01:59:42):
You didn't see the bright light ten thirties a night
in Auckland, did you?

Speaker 4 (01:59:46):
No?

Speaker 22 (01:59:47):
No, I had. I was in blanket Bay. I wasn't
blanket I was in bed.

Speaker 2 (01:59:54):
Howly, I've never heard of being called blanket bay. I
quite like that, Brian, thank you. There we go. That's
what it refers to get in touch people. My name
is Marcus Gott. Here's an interesting text, and I re
cause I know what it's like to be baffled. Someone's
texted me whatever the topic is this is off topic.
Well that's a good start. Several weeks ago TVNZ ran

(02:00:17):
some trailers for a UK police procedural. Then suddenly they
pulled it. I searched their website, but nowhere to be found.
Check GPT sent me forty your sociuggestions as to what
the program might be, but no luck thought perhaps one
of your listeners might know what it was, Please help,
it's important. One of the owner actors really irritates me

(02:00:39):
and I need to tell family friends about him. Thanks
Mark christ Church. Can anyone think of a police TV
program that TVNZ was promoting several weeks back and now
they've stopped promoting it. It sounds like a hard thing
to come up with. And the mitchellin stars that have
been worded to restaurants be a stressful thing doing the

(02:01:00):
food for that event, wouldn't it. It must have cost
a fee bit of money flying the chefs around the
country to this event. So get in touch. David's Marcus welcome, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:01:12):
Welcome Marcus. What a great night tonight. This would be
one of the better programs that you've had this year.

Speaker 2 (02:01:19):
I think, oh, that's nice chrase. Thank you. Don't do
my best, so thank you.

Speaker 4 (02:01:23):
Lot of problems, but I've got a bit of news
for you that may help or of assistance. The program
you're looking for could be twenty four hours in police custody. Okay,
that's a program I saw advertised probably two weeks back, sure,
and haven't seen it since. Okay, And my final bit

(02:01:46):
is we're talking about punishment or mister minors as a child. Yep,
my one. As I was staying with my auntie in
a place called Rangertower, which is just south of Alvacuni.
We were living and tie happy and my grandma was
in very ill health. Mum from Tyappe went up to

(02:02:09):
look after a mum, so I stayed with This particular
auntie was my I found early on in my life,
was my godmother. And she said something to me which
I can't remember, but I called her a silly old bitch.
So she chased me through the house, out the front door,

(02:02:31):
around the house, past the water tank and just left
sleeping dogs be She opened a cupboard at the back
door she was where the kitchen was, and through a
railway house and through the back door and up the
gowny kitchen, and she said, Dave, come here, I found
something great that you would like out of the cupboard here.
And she always had bags and lollies in the cupboard. Well,

(02:02:54):
I go out, thinking, oh, she's found a bag of
lollies and offering me some lollies. Close your eyes and
open your mouth. And in the meantime she had put
a finger in the common mustard I had met up.
I never ever swater this lady again. That's a thing

(02:03:18):
to a market.

Speaker 2 (02:03:19):
Yeah, fancy having is chasing you and then you're falling
for that old trick so easily.

Speaker 4 (02:03:24):
Yeah, you always hit a bag of markets always, and
bank of lilies in the cupboard.

Speaker 2 (02:03:32):
You're I thought you were going to say soap. I'm
happy with the mustard because it's a bit more. It's unpleasant,
but pleasant, more pleasant than soap.

Speaker 4 (02:03:39):
So the wold to be common in the Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:03:44):
And as soon as you said railway house, I can
picture it too, because they're all the same, aren't they.
You go in the back door and down exactly all
the same. Good story, Dave, Thank you brilliant twenty four
to twelve markets and not ending with them a meteorite madness.
Good that Graham's an expert on meteorite day. Cheapest creepers.

(02:04:06):
I don't know, but i'd love to I would love
to do. I want to say about meteorites. There was
that woman in Mount Wellington. A meteorite came through a
roof which is watching TV. Well, she end up on
the Letterman Show. She went around America with it. I
am fascinated by meteorites and meteorite hunters. I mean there's
people that are obsessed with finding them, triangulation everything. When

(02:04:28):
they fall, they get obsessed about working out where they are. Oh,
now this is interesting. The French they must hate christ Church.
They're based in Brisbane, Brisbania, and will just fly into
christ Church for the games. Marcus Sineks were broadcasting My
Dilemma about the cop show. It was not twenty four
hours in Police Custody. It's a newer one deals with

(02:04:50):
a true story, probably in the nineteen nineties. This guy's
pretty fixated on. This was advertised on TV deb but
it's been canned. If you know what that is. I
don't know how the guy would find that out. Actually,
I hate to say that, unless he's misremembered it, but
it seems unlikely that poll a show or they might have.
I just don't know, but yeah, be in touch if

(02:05:12):
your on to one air before the end of it.
I've enjoyed watching all the video footage of Trump's two
point fifty years celebration thing in Washington. Gosh, boy, that
doesn't like the Willy Wonka thing. It's as bad as
that isn't it. It really is grim. If you haven't
seen any shots of that jeep as creepers. There's no
one there.

Speaker 4 (02:05:32):
Oh well.

Speaker 1 (02:05:33):
