Episode Transcript

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

Speaker 2 (00:14):
Hey, greetings, welcome Marcus till twelve. How you go not
long till Christmas? At one hundred days to Christmas? It
might be it might be ninety nine, it might have
been ninety eight. How are you hope you are good?
Marcus hit till twelve tonight, looking forward to your contributions
numbers eight hundred and eighty ten, eighty nine, two nine
too if you want a text looking forward to what
you've got to say, I'm hittled twelve to ten beverage
along from twelve vote to the local body elections that's happening.

(00:38):
Also to not long till the start of daylight savings.
That's September twenty eighth. Just so you know, by the
way the weather, the weather's doing its dance around the
South Island. I don't look. I think a front must
have come through overnight. It's certainly not around South South's
finances Hittle at the moment. But I know that there's
planes having difficulty landing or getting rough landings in christ Church, Canterbury,

(01:01):
and also there's a fire. If you've got the information
about that. Do let us know. I wouldn't mind just
having a bit of a quick go around about how
the weather is going. So it's a big scrub fire
in Springfield and Southbridge, and in fact there's eight scrub fires.
It's dry early. Is it is that surprising so many

(01:22):
places are on fire? Eight scrub fires, four helicops between
two trucks are involved in betting a far in south
Bridge and another in Springfield. Severe windwatch until tonight. Metsuva's
warning of gales and exposed places. Thirty hectores in Southbridge.

(01:45):
A shit has been wrecked. And if you've got some
information there For those that don't know Southbridge unless you've
gone there, it's hard to know where it is. Used
to always hear about these christ church can to be
placed and wonder where the heck they were. But Southbridge,
it's in quite a particular place. It's on that railway.
Did the line go all the way to the Southbridge?

(02:05):
I think it did. There was a train line that
went out that way, so yeah, out it goes Doyleston,
Leston Southbridge. I think that's the way. It goes out
towards the coast around the edge of Lake elsewhere. So yeah,
it's not where I've expected the fire to be, but yeah,
it must be dry. There must be for revery windy.
We've got some information about that. Let us know if
you've got any reports, text or call through. Mainly call

(02:27):
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty, and also if the
winds are called. I think the reports are the winds
are going to be more settled from tonight, but I
don't know that. By the way, too, there's hundreds of
houses without power. Geraldine in South Canterbury has seven hundred
and seventy three homes without power. Ourpine Energy is your crowd.

(02:55):
So the original outage, a lot of people were replugged in,
but now there's a new outage, so they're onto it
and they're working hard to it. Geralding listening on the trendy.
We know why. That's why, and it's pretty It looks
like it's farmland and pine land with the fires in

(03:17):
south Bridge and the winds obviously are fending those. And
by the way, State Highway to the Lematuka Hill Road
closed due to a high wind warning. I don't know
if that's long gooing in front, I'll check. It looks
like high winds are knocking down trees and Canterbury and
that's affecting power. So yeah, there we go. If you've

(03:40):
got some information about there, don't let us know. I
don't know what's going on. I'm just trying to read
about it. But you know, sometimes I think that when
things aren't happening in Aukland, they don't get as much
media attention as they probably should. This looks like it's
quite a big deal to me. Sometimes look at media
coverages where it's just whether the Harbor Bridge is open
or not. But anyway, let's talk about this. If you've
got some updates for us. Yeah seems I mean, it's

(04:03):
just down. It just came out of Woody wonder Way.
The ground's so dry. Don't sure that it's catching up
like that. I don't know what to say about that,
but I'm just trying to bring up the weather for you.
Two people. Eleven past eight, get in touch of you
want a chair, if there's something else you want to mention.
I've got a couple of things up my sleeve tonight
to talk about. I'll come to those before long. I
just want to cover off the weather just I don't
want to be here in sunny. The weather is really bad.
Not to acknowledge. It looks like the injured tear websites.

(04:27):
I'll try it on my phone. Looks like the injured
tear websites gone down, which doesn't show much robustness. Does
it to go on my phone to get it, which
is damming Well, no, that would be down. But get
in touch if you want to talk. As I say
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty nine nine two de text.
Do you want to come through State Highways? Oh, it's

(04:51):
come up finally, goodness, server error. So I'm just looking
at the lem of taking road that would be affecting
most of you. I'll just to see when that's going
to reopen. When they're expecting that to happen due to
strong wind. State Highway Tour is closed between Kaki and
and plan your journey accordingly. Start seventeenth September. Expected resolution

(05:11):
until further notice. Another rubbish thing from the entity they
should be telling us, Jamie, this is Marcus welcome.

Speaker 3 (05:19):
Yeah, I can sell. Are you good, Jamie?

Speaker 4 (05:21):
Talk about I just want to talk about the Rumataka
Hill Road being closed, the high wind. I mean, when
do we suddenly start shutting all these roads. I mean
it's windy in the wire effort, but it's nothing worse
than we normally get. They've just become too safety risk
of it.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
So I've just said enough of it, because it's not
like there's many convenient alternatives.

Speaker 4 (05:46):
No, you've got to go all the way from Pharmace
No North if you want to get to Wellington.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
It's for two hours.

Speaker 4 (05:51):
Yeah, and they put all these barriers up, and there's
all these big high barriers where the windy corners are.
And don't get me wrong, you know it can blow
you around up there. But they just they just seemed
to close roads.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
For the almost for the Jamie. What has changed?

Speaker 4 (06:06):
No marks, So I'm asking you, I just think we've
just become god knows'.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
Just gone mad.

Speaker 4 (06:14):
I think, yeah, I think, I think I think unfortunately
it's woken us.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
You're asking quite a good question because anything, I mean,
the cars haven't got lighter. Have everyone sort of a
ranger ranger utes and stuff like that.

Speaker 4 (06:28):
Well, in all the evs from fears from Martinborough driving
to all the people in wanting them, they.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
They they've got massive batteries. What has changed. It's not
like people are going over there on mopeds or anything
on limes scooters though I don't know what's changed. How
many people have been killed on that section of the road.

Speaker 4 (06:47):
I've never heard of anyone been blowing off that. I mean,
you know, in the past, in the past, when it
had just a wire at wire fence, you know, you
didn't want to be you knew, you knew you had.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
To drive carefully in those old days because you knew
if you went bad, it was on you when you
went over the side. These days, with all those wys
and things, that's it's sort of yeah, I can't work
it out.

Speaker 4 (07:08):
I think the other thing too, markets is that they
they just have this expectation and they being empty t
a and that we're all bloody stupid and that if
they and they're trying to save us from ourselves. And
I just think we've lost the common sense approach to
you know, how we deal with these things, and that
you need to be responsible for your own safety and

(07:29):
you need to think about your own your own stuff.
And it's just because hearing.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
Its most roads they close it's because of snow. And
that's fair enough, because they end up having to toe
people out, don't they Because they get in there and
there's snow behind, snow in front, and that becomes a
rescue operation because they could get hypothermic or something. But
strong winds you can't quite work it out.

Speaker 4 (07:50):
Yeah, And I think the slow thing, though, is a
good one because if you've driven snow and you're used
to it, which we are and in New Zealand, then
you're going to be okay. But if you're not, just
don't go, you know. And then it's the same with.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
The are you are you opposeding closing roads because the
snow is well Jamie, because I think that's probably a
good idea, But.

Speaker 4 (08:09):
I'm not opposed in closing roads. I think, you know,
if you've got the right sort of vehicle and the experience.
And look, I went over over the Room Takers on
Saturday and it was blowing a gale and I'm actually
standing for Masterden Tesseract Council and I've had my signs
on the back of my ute, and I thought, ship
the box is going to blow off and and and
that'll be really embarrassing. But the amount of little shopping cars,

(08:32):
little we tiny light things, and I thought, you guys
are crazy being on this road at this time your
car is getting blon around all the place. They didn't
shut it on the Saturday, but because there was a
ragby taste of one and then the uplow would.

Speaker 3 (08:44):
Have been at that race.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
Actually, oh you wouldn't. You wouldn't want that. That would
be sacrisanc wouldn't it?

Speaker 4 (08:49):
Absolutely?

Speaker 5 (08:50):
Absolutely away?

Speaker 2 (08:52):
Do they shut the Bluff Road markets, Well, it's only
one road in, one road out. They don't, but if
there's an extant they will, if the serious crest unit
are there.

Speaker 4 (09:01):
Yeah, you're not.

Speaker 2 (09:02):
You're not. You're not Jamie Falloon a sharp eye on
our rates. You're not Tony Hargood.

Speaker 4 (09:08):
I am Jamie fallonas sharp iron our that's exactly me.

Speaker 2 (09:13):
Well it should be a sharp ey our roads. I'll
keep a sharp ey our rates and counsel. You don't
say anything about the closing of the road because you
have my vote.

Speaker 5 (09:20):
I know.

Speaker 4 (09:21):
Well, I'm going to tell you what. I've got an
air going in the paper on Friday, so I'm going
to I'm going to adjust it and put something about
closing the roads as well.

Speaker 2 (09:27):
Yeah, get in t a out of our lives and
say say something scanless like it's as if they're paid
on commission with how many roads they close. It's crazy.

Speaker 4 (09:38):
I have got I have got eliminate consultants, make rates affordable.
Zero zero consultants. We don't need consultants to cover our
staff sparts anymore.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
How's the how's the forestry to reworked out for you?

Speaker 3 (09:49):
Jamie? That going all right?

Speaker 4 (09:52):
Here's your quick Eventually got quite a lot of forests
as well, and it's it's going pretty well. But I'm
just a simple shouldn't be farmer, just trying to put
my shoulder to the wheel and help out because.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
Exactly, okay, well you got crazy. Are you the in company,
the defending champion or your No.

Speaker 4 (10:11):
I'm no, I'm I'm a newbie. So half me sort
of excited about hoping to get on in the other house,
thinking why are you so bloody stupid to put your
name for it? But you've got to you've got to
do your but you've got to help out. And and
my father was was a national MP John Following.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
So it's a fairly common political purname, isn't it. That
will get that'll get your some notes, but you'll probably
lose your some votes to country. Yeah, that's kind of
that's uh, you probably get.

Speaker 4 (10:37):
It's provincial markus then, and I'm also lucky enough that
it's alphabetical, so on the top of the list.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
I think they I think I think they juggle them up. No,
we're alphabetical, we're randomized down here.

Speaker 4 (10:51):
Yeah, so I've got lucky. I'm on the top of
the list. Okay, very easy choice back one and then
we're sort.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
Of congratulations Jamie. Nice nice work there. Eighteen. Do anyone
know why they do close the riema take a hill
road so often? Has anyone blowing off there? I like
to know the answer that if you've got some information
about that. Oh, Marcus, a truck was blown over the guards.
I let me take Aho a couple of years ago
and killed. We're driving the long way home, three hours drive.

(11:21):
Given that New Zealand is some of the worst drivers
in the world in abundance of caution, may be justified.
Bloody Jamie has single use plastic signs exactly, Craig here beautiful,
still warm night in christ Church. Marcus, some confused ask
covering inded tia protect themselves from liability. I don't think
you can sue the in died take are you can?
You horrible flight out of Willington this evening delayed ninety

(11:45):
minutes and so rough in the wind. Where are you
flying to? On someone's texts from Eshburton because as Vegas
has tossed, tossed top top the country twenty six degrees today.
Good work Ish Burton a couple of weeks ago, and
New Zealand was top of even the council website was
posting that that we're top of the country on the
weather to day. When that happens, you hear the neighbors

(12:08):
cheering nineteen past time, looking forward to your calls? What
are they nineteen past eight looking forward to your calls?
Why do they close that road? Get in touch Hittle
twelve eight twenty two. This is a bit more information, Marcus.
The truck referred to was only blowing off that lima
Tuckers because his bonnet had not been secured and blew
up onto the windscreen. A very sad and tragic freak accent.

(12:31):
People just need to drive the conditions. Damn this woke attitude.
Kate Carterton. Although I met you. If there's some car
of family blowing off and everyone we say jeep is
creep as well as the road still open, Marcus. I
just heard one of your callers saying that the truck
was blown over the side of the hill. That's not correct.

(12:53):
It was an insecure load that caused trucks to go
off the road and kill the driver. Or it's extremely
windy on the hill. Thanks mate, Marcus. It's still very
woman art Nui CROs j. But the breezes, light planes
are flying over brightness they do during an norwester is
I see comments online about people commenting on the different
landing areas. They never closed the roads for the wind.

(13:17):
Back in the seventies when my Mark three Zephyr roam
the highways. Emmett I walked to masters in once. Actually
ever told you that story. Three days, two nights, James
Marcus welcome.

Speaker 6 (13:31):
Oh hi Marcus, Yeah, James here. I live in Rahrangi,
which is Blenham and pecton there at the top of
the North Island.

Speaker 2 (13:43):
South Island.

Speaker 6 (13:43):
All that now, oh sorry sir. Anyway, on Saturday night,
I'm presuming Saturday night that was the night the All
Blacks played the Wellington actually, but anyway, someone has come
along on the early hours of probably Sunday morning and

(14:04):
darkness and dumped the out eight or nine possums just
in a in an area there called blue Gum Corner,
which which leads down to Raringy Beach. And yeah, and
it was just terrible because they've they've looked like they've
just clubbed them or something, that they haven't taken the
skins or anything. I mean, I know they're pests, but

(14:27):
I just found.

Speaker 2 (14:28):
Out even pests need some respect.

Speaker 6 (14:32):
They sure do. But anyway, I rang up on Sunday.

Speaker 4 (14:36):
I rang up.

Speaker 6 (14:37):
I certainly won't give any names who I talked to,
but I rang up the s p C A and
Renwick just to see if they would collect them or
do something. But yeah, it was a Sunday and they
weren't interested. But then also rang the Malbourne District Council
did just to see they're dead. Yeah, but there was
a there's a there was a baby one there.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
With the Joey's and what do you do with the.

Speaker 6 (15:02):
Property and the pouch little guy. But but one touching
thing is someone had come along and put some flowers
on them, some daffodils, so you know they.

Speaker 2 (15:16):
This sounds like the great news and short story. I mean,
it's all happening. Either the rugby test. Someone flowers you
ring in the SPCA and the council. What do they do?

Speaker 6 (15:27):
They didn't do anything, Yeah, because we really need someone
to pack them up, you know, because it's you know,
they're starting to decompose and that I mean, I know
they're pests, but you know, yeah, they weren't treaded with
any respect, just sort of. I don't know how they
they don't seem to have any marks on them. How
many They didn't look like they'd been trapped, but maybe

(15:50):
they had been shot or something.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
James, how many were they?

Speaker 6 (15:55):
There's about eight of them there?

Speaker 2 (15:56):
Okay, what's your suspicion?

Speaker 6 (16:00):
Well, I think it was probably someone just having a
bit of fun, probably to let off steam after that
All Black game and going out and taking it out
on the possums that big loss at the All Blackstop.
But I don't really know. But but another another point
about it. I have heard that and now I don't
know whether this is right, but it's certainly right for Australia.
They're protected in Australia. Like if this happened in Australia,

(16:23):
they'd be jumping up and down. It'd be like if
there was say seals you know, clubbed to death on
the beach or something here, but that these things aren't protected.

Speaker 2 (16:33):
So their respect. They're a pest here.

Speaker 6 (16:38):
Yeah, So hopefully someone from the Marlburn District Council might
be listening and they can come out to Blue Gum
Corner and send someone out to sort of pick them up.
And I don't know what they'd do with them, because.

Speaker 2 (16:51):
Blue Gum be some sort of reserve. Who would who
would run that? Who would be over overseeing that?

Speaker 6 (16:57):
I think it's Malbourne District Council Parks and Reserve or
something like that. It's just a it's just a right
away sort of a shingle road down.

Speaker 2 (17:06):
To the be I should say, just past the beekeeper.
The beekeeper was that mana queen the beekeeper on the
corner there?

Speaker 6 (17:16):
I don't think so, the corner of Rowingy Beach Road
and Roaring Road.

Speaker 2 (17:22):
Right just just on the bend where the Bluegum corner
is that house next to it? They must have a
honey processing thing at the back. Anyway.

Speaker 6 (17:32):
Maybe there's a great big new house gone on near
on that corner, is it?

Speaker 3 (17:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (17:38):
Yeah, it's worth checking.

Speaker 2 (17:39):
Out right on the beach with the pool, is it.

Speaker 6 (17:43):
I think it's probably got a pool. It's certainly big
enough to Okay, yeah, but can I just give yeah,
I'm going about it. I wanted to just the song,
you know, the song Leader of the Pack. It was
from shamra Less. And one of those lyrics is or

(18:08):
two of them. Actually they're just getting me, and I'll
read it out. One day my dad said, find someone new.
So this is to his daughter, but this is the
one that gets me. I had to tell my Jimmy,
we're through. She actually listened to him, because I've got
a daughter. If I said something like that, it wouldn't

(18:31):
quite go down the same way. So that might lighten
the conversation of this.

Speaker 2 (18:35):
So what what's your point with that one?

Speaker 6 (18:38):
Well, it's just things have changed. Like back in sixty four,
a young girl say, you know, eighteen years old, she'd
listened to her dad. I don't think they would anymore.

Speaker 2 (18:49):
Tell me how the lyrics leader the pet go.

Speaker 3 (18:52):
This is?

Speaker 6 (18:53):
Well, she sort of she you know, links up with
the leader at the pack. I guess a bikey or something.
And then and then she says, one day my dad said,
find someone new. I had to tell my Jimmy, we're through.

Speaker 2 (19:09):
Yeah, it's interesting, isn't it him?

Speaker 3 (19:11):
Yeah? That's yeah.

Speaker 2 (19:12):
That's different, isn't it.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (19:15):
These the lyrics sort of get me. But from the
olden days, but some.

Speaker 3 (19:21):
Of us older than others.

Speaker 2 (19:22):
But yes, So how old was she in this? How
old was she in this song?

Speaker 6 (19:27):
I think she might have been still at schooling.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
Around the candy store. She's probably young, isn't she?

Speaker 3 (19:35):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (19:35):
Is he picking? Is he picking you up from school today?

Speaker 3 (19:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (19:38):
Imagined?

Speaker 3 (19:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (19:39):
Yeah, Okay, we could discuss that, but thank you. I'm
going to come to headlines, James. But that's good. It's
all good. If someone says, and I'm inclined to agree
with him, dig a hole and bury the possums. That
would have been easier than Actually he's rung the council
and he's rung the SPCI and he's rung talkback. I
just paid them at the beach. Wouldn't you dig a

(20:00):
big hole? Graham hasn't said it like that. Graham's quite
angry with his text because I can't understand what it says.
He said the arranging dude, would he mean haranguing dude Dan?
The haranguing dude is indicative of limp wasted he'd been
risted instead of wasted. Wouldn't he limp wasted males? Did
they just grow? Just grow dome gahonies. That must be

(20:20):
some goonies and dig a hole and bury the possums
for f's sake. That's from Graham and someone else who
is referring to Jamie. I doubt if leader the packers
based on fact. Quite often song lyrics are made up. Well,
that's the point that they normally reflect the sentiment of
the day. She song I've always quite liked. So the

(20:47):
question hasn't been answered is why infecting their clothes. I'
emould take a hill road so often. Some people have
texted me about the train that got blown off there,
But that was a very different scenario. That was the
train in the very real old days went right round
the outside of there was a place called Siberia and
it got blown off there. But yes, the trains no
long ago that way because of course there is a tunnel,

(21:15):
so yep, so yeah, she went, she got blown off
sober I forget there was about eighteen eighty that was it,
A long long time ago, long time ago, But getting
touching on talk about these things, but mainly about why
they've closed the road, and what would you do if
you found eight deader possums? Would you bring the council?

(21:40):
That's what I'm kind of interesting tonight. And if you've
got the if you've got to report on the fire
or the real strong winds let us know killed three
children and many others the car crest there. If you
do that walk which used to be a rail track,
you see where it all happened, there was information boards.

(22:00):
Throw them in the creek. The eels will be grateful. Marcus.
I can't believe how easily see the rental company send
their out there clients onto New Zealand roads to then
proceed to drive on the opposite side of the road.
I've seen it. Then they wonder why there's an extent.
It's bloody crazy, Barnsey. I think what they do do?
I think what they can do and do do and
should do, is they've got traces on the cars and

(22:25):
they can work out of the driving's bad, can't they.
That's what I hope they're doing anywhere if it's over
the wrong side of the road, you think that would happen.
Here's another email from the nostalgia point of view. I
just read this while I can keep talking amongst yourselves, Marcus,
I was hoping you or some of your listers could

(22:45):
help me with some information. Are a membery gardens center
in Newlyn, Auckland that had wallerbees in an enclosure and
a friendly rock? So can anyone tell me about the Wallabies?
Wallabies in New Lynn? This is Auckland, West Auckland. Some
privates zoo. They're all over the show. The private zoo's

(23:06):
once on a time, every famous one and you bright
when they had the lion was a tiger. But Wallabies
and New Lynn. I don't know what year it would
have been. She emailed dB. This is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 5 (23:23):
Oh just caught me by surprise. Speed restrictions on the
rail on the rim attacking line are still there for
high winds. Which side and the masters inside? So you
said come out of the tunnel going towards Marston. I
suppose no, it's always the downhill trains. You're restricted not

(23:48):
to use dynamic breaking in high winds. Wow, because a
couple of curves there sort of faddeled with the wind. Okay,
and in dynamic breaking you've got the train bunched together
like a coil spring, and yeah, it could still be

(24:11):
blown off the track. Well, so there are I remember
like when I was driving that area a couple of
instructions for a lower speed and not using the dynamic braking.

Speaker 2 (24:27):
I didn't know about that.

Speaker 5 (24:29):
So there that's a windy little area.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
What do you like on roller coasters?

Speaker 5 (24:37):
I don't do them.

Speaker 2 (24:39):
Okay, there's a roller coaster in Melbourne the park that
one has a brakeman on it. Surprising isn't there since
nineteen oh three, But there's a break person on it
so it doesn't go too fast. I thought that was
they don't do it in the wet.

Speaker 5 (24:56):
That's probably because they hadn't invented retardeds within the track.

Speaker 2 (25:01):
Yeah, we don't say that, but.

Speaker 5 (25:04):
Yeah, most roller coasters now have retarders of one sort
or another, either a pinch wheel or electromagnetic. But yeah,
so yeah we again they're on a roller coaster. What
a wonderful job.

Speaker 2 (25:22):
With those new roller coaster parks in America?

Speaker 5 (25:24):
Right, mm hmm.

Speaker 2 (25:27):
The average visit is eight hours and the average time
on rides is ten to fifteen minutes to most points,
so most of it is queuing.

Speaker 5 (25:46):
Yes, I was just going to say I don't think
the roller coaster ride itself would be that long.

Speaker 2 (25:51):
No, I think fifteen ten to fifteen minutes and eight hours. Yeah,
other that was fact of the day. But you didn't
find that that interesting.

Speaker 5 (26:01):
That if you hype enough enough, hype it up enough. Sorry,
my goodson are working today.

Speaker 7 (26:09):
People will wait for yes, and they'll enjoy it.

Speaker 2 (26:12):
They'll enjoy it more after a long wait, won't they,
because I think they've earned it. There's some there's something
sort of sick about that they think all jeep is
not long now, and they get too excited in the fever.

Speaker 5 (26:21):
But even the cues of are designed to build the tensions. Yes,
there are different cues within well you know, the cue
ques within the the line to make you think this
is going to get better, this is going to get
this is going to be the greatest thing today. And

(26:44):
then ninety seconds of terror.

Speaker 2 (26:48):
Yeah, okay, it's not. It's not my thing either. dB
roll org on because you're not here, thank you. Twenty
two to nine. Hold your horses, Douglas with you soon,
by the way, Statehoy seventy seven. The amount Hunt reopened
after being closed. Do you extend or strong winds? Dan
denimal strong winds go. They're closing every road now. Once
upon a time before too long they were telling us

(27:08):
which roads are open. We'll sit at home and it listen. Yeah, anyway,
you can vote from if you want, and Jamie might
be losing votes. Marcus lemuttucka hill road closed as it
has high winds one hundred k's. A truck got blown
over today. Oh well that's a bit different, isn't it.
If a truck actually gets blowing over. Wow, someone says,

(27:31):
throw them in the creek and the eels will be grateful.
That's the possums, not the trucks. Marcus Leader. The pangs
about a girl who has to finish with ther race
of boyfriend. In America, Jimmy is quite often the head rider.
What does that mean? It's blown, not blowing, same as growing,
not grown, not growing. It's a bug of mine. Drives

(27:54):
me crazy. Oh well, change the world or change yourself,
that's what I say. If you just become more tolerant,
then in fact the world. Otherwise you can change the
way the world pronounces it, or you can actually just
it's like, well I'm not going to get a triggered Douglas.
This is Marcus.

Speaker 8 (28:11):
Welcome, Hello Marcus. Yeah, I'm gett new to radio. I've
one of those who sort of had TV on in
the background all the time, and then I had a
problem with the connection that wouldn't go for a couple
of days, and I suddenly realized what rubbish it was.
I mean, it's free. I don't have a TV that
picks up all the fancy stuff and so free TV

(28:31):
it's like trying to find good things in.

Speaker 3 (28:32):
The dustmin basically. Wow.

Speaker 8 (28:35):
So I listened to the radio and I'm starting to
get quite impressed with it. But I was I was
listening before before I listened to you, which I've found
interesting as well. But the guy I was talking about
the All Blacks and the NPC and.

Speaker 2 (28:48):
The are they still talking about that?

Speaker 8 (28:52):
Yeah, I just I watched the NPC and I've watched
the Test matches if you like, And of course I
obviously want to win the Test matches against the South Africans.
But the great thing about the last Test match we
lost it.

Speaker 5 (29:04):
Of course it was dreadful, but.

Speaker 8 (29:06):
I think, and this is just my opinion, that the
South Africans got a bigger fright by there as we
did because the South Africans have been trying to play
everything in slow motion or freeze everybody and stop anyone
from doing anything, and then all of a sudden they
discovered they can run, and they rent crazy and played
a brilliant game. And you know, I don't think that
that's necessarily what the spring Box now are. I think

(29:29):
that's what they were in that particular game, and I
think it probably frightened them as much as it did us.
And so the next game will be the thing that'll
tell where they can do it again. And I wonder
whether they can, because you know, it's what you can
do that once because the orbs weren't ready for them.
They're expecting the slow go sort of crowd, and all
of a sudden they've got these guys running like crazy.

(29:49):
But this is my impression.

Speaker 2 (29:51):
So what do you think happened in that last test?
Did you reckon?

Speaker 8 (29:54):
I think what happened was the spring boxs are getting back.
I mean, I'm seventy.

Speaker 9 (29:58):
Six years old and sound young.

Speaker 3 (30:00):
Yep.

Speaker 8 (30:01):
Well, I've been watching rugby since I was five basically,
and so I mean seventy years of them, and that
was what the spring coot Fu used to play, like
you know before they've got all these modern ideas that
go slow and be clever and have funny rules in
god knows bottle. I mean, I was delighted to see
the Spring. I wouldn't want them playing us that way.
I wish they've played the Aussies that way. But I

(30:25):
don't think. I think that they're probably just as frightened
by it as well. That's my impression, because because they're brilliant.

Speaker 2 (30:31):
So why would they do why would they be why
would they be frightened by it?

Speaker 8 (30:37):
Because I don't think that's that they haven't done it
for about forty years. Okay, you know, I mean, I'm
not doing that.

Speaker 10 (30:43):
I'm kidding.

Speaker 8 (30:43):
It's just mind your tom goes fast when you get older,
but at least twenty years. You know, the time sudden.

Speaker 2 (30:50):
Time only goes faster if you're older, if you do
less new things.

Speaker 8 (30:57):
Oh I'm not so sure about that.

Speaker 2 (30:58):
Well, that that's the theory. It's because you're not you
haven't got as much new stuff to remember.

Speaker 8 (31:05):
I'm not like that. I've got new stuff. I've got
much more new stuff now than there were young. Probably
new experience of your theory for some people though, But
I know if I look back over ten years and
I look back over twenty years, I've never seen a
Springbok performance like this. But if I look back thirty years,

(31:26):
it was the norm. You know, if you wanted to
bat the spring Box, you had to play really, really well.
And so I don't think we should be as frightened
by it as some people are.

Speaker 4 (31:38):
But the other thing is I've.

Speaker 8 (31:39):
Been watching the etc. As well as watching tests, and
the NTC is just brilliant. NPC Local Competition.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
Well, you clearly were watching. You clearly would clearly went
watching Southland play Counties on Sunday because it was shocking.

Speaker 8 (31:53):
Oh, sometimes a lot of thing. It's always perfect. But
I've been watching plenty and stuff and I think it's
talked about and some of the others, and some of
them are fantastic. It's really good rugby. It's not it's
not as hard and as harsh.

Speaker 2 (32:10):
I thought your TV. I thought your TV had broken.

Speaker 8 (32:14):
It has that's in the last few days we watch.

Speaker 2 (32:17):
We're watching it.

Speaker 3 (32:19):
Oh this was.

Speaker 8 (32:20):
Before and it's only the TV has only been just gone.
And I've suddenly discovered that I don't particularly.

Speaker 2 (32:25):
Need the t But you love your rugby. You need
to go back to that for that, won't you.

Speaker 8 (32:30):
Well, I'll try and get it connected. It's only a
connection thing. It's not nothing wrong with the TV itself,
it's just connecting it to the wall.

Speaker 2 (32:35):
But you haven't got Sky.

Speaker 3 (32:36):
How do you?

Speaker 2 (32:37):
How do you watch you n PCs? Oh?

Speaker 8 (32:41):
I know the PC has been on on on on.

Speaker 2 (32:44):
Oh it was all good on them for doing that. Okay,
that's a bonus.

Speaker 8 (32:47):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, it was. I was watching it
because it hasn't usually been I don't have Sky.

Speaker 2 (32:54):
They've done that recently. Yep, that makes sense.

Speaker 8 (32:56):
Yeah, it was just it was. It was mine bending
because after you been watching test matches and you know,
uh goddess Bottle and I mean I I like Ruddy
where they really actually tackle people and run and do things.
You know, it's not sort of creeper stuff, but it's
brilliant stuff. You know, it's sport. But anyway, sorry, sorry

(33:17):
to give you all the sporting.

Speaker 2 (33:18):
No, that's good you I've enjoyed that. I'm going to
move on. But now, what do you want to say
about the weather quickly?

Speaker 3 (33:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (33:23):
You are, well, I just basically saying I was watching today.
I'm in Boxton and I've got this living room which
is a sun track. I've got a north side and
a west side with all window in my living room,
you see. And what I do is at about three
to four o'clock, I separate the curtains otherwise they're too bright,

(33:44):
you know. In the living room, I separate the curtains
on the west side and get two feet of sunshine
coming in, a big branch of sunshine coming in to
warm the room up because it's been so cold, you know,
and you don't want to use heaters all the time. Anyway,
I did that today and it was all blotched with
rain and there was still raining right. The wind was
blowing wild. It was crazy, and the sun was shining

(34:09):
and it so all has happened at the same time.
And it was really hot now, I mean I've been
around for a while. That's weird.

Speaker 3 (34:17):
That's weird weather.

Speaker 8 (34:19):
And my daughter had just come down to some sort
of selict committee sing or something in Wellington. Had to
fly back to Auckland, and she was describing the flight
back here and there is absolutely dreadful, you know. She
was saying that the plane was going to fall out
of the sky. I mean, the weather is weird.

Speaker 2 (34:37):
Okay, olive there, Douglas, but thank you. Twelve to nine
seventy seven State Hiwhy seventy seven was closed near a
car after a large truck got blown over and a
farm shed was destroyed. The point is, if the wind
can blow a train over up there, good luck for
the vehicles. Why don't we have a vehicle tunnel? It's
harder or easier to do if the train tunnel already exists,

(34:59):
isn't hard? I don't know, but where the train got
blown off was in a much different place. That was
part of the hills that's right exposed. It's daft even
put that this is an eighteen eighty eight So I
than three children got killed? Did I say that? I
spent eight months driving trucks of the US sound opposite
of New Zealand, and I cannot remember having any problems

(35:20):
at all. High sighted trucks trains have a biggert surface
area to low over interesting hearing the feedback, Marcus. The
reason time goes fast was we get older is when
we are five year olds, a year is twenty percent
of our life. When we are fifty to only two percent.
It's less. For a proposition, that's not quite right. The
recent science says life seems to go faster because a

(35:44):
year becomes Oh no, it's because the lack of novelty
and diminished information. As we get older, life becomes more
retine and repetitive with fewer novel experiences. The lack of
new information whens the brand vests less energy, making events
seem to pass more quickly. It's probably a bit of both.

(36:09):
It's probably a bit of both. I like the way
the years go fast. Eight to nine. So we still
haven't quite decided why they've closed. I'd ever take a hell,
but I can't quite. We're go out for truck has
blowing over there today or not? They might have been
confused with on that happened and rekire if you got
any more information for us, do come through eight hundred

(36:29):
and eighty ten eighty and nine two nine two to
text if you want to come through. Hundreds of homes
and Canterbury are without power and there are eight fires ongoing.
It's going to be a dry year, isn't it. If
that's a situation or red what could it because it
could reign towards the end. Ye're still seven hundred and

(36:51):
seventy three homes without power in Geraldine. If you need
us to do anything for you, if you're without power,
I needy information, we can have the internet do that
what you need for you. That made any sense at all?
You know what I mean. If you're caught out, let
us know and get in touch if you want to
talk on your minum as Marcus good evening the number

(37:12):
eight hundred eighty ten eighty and nine nine to text.
We are talking about the reason they close close roads. Now.
Maybe it's because it's easy to close roads these days.
They would have closed them in the old days they
didn't have the technology or like the winden meters at
the top of the hell. It's probably been a science.

(37:35):
So now they've probably got a wind meter up there,
and then when it goes over a certain threshold which
they've deemed dangerous, and there'd be excellent figures to back
that up, they could say, okay, it's over one hundred k's.
Last up was one hundred k's three trucks went off
the road. Whatever policy will close it at that speed?
Is it a silly idea? Is it PC gone made

(37:55):
to close roads? Is it woke? I wonder how long
it will be till they get a tunnel going through
there because Nali Road. Where did it in an uber? Yeah,
that's right because the train wasn't running, so why couldn't

(38:18):
we get a bus? Don't know the reason we're late
now Christmas holiday? Do get in touch you on to talk?
By the way, oh oh, by the way. Would the
rugby the women's rugby? And I kind of think that
where the end at RFU are panicking about the all
Backs being so poor, they should invest more into the
publicity of the World Cup, the women's Rugby World Cup,

(38:38):
because that's obviously the era of the game that's growing.
But yes, it seems like Canada is the second ranked
team in the world, so it goes England Canada. Then
you said it like England, Canada, France?

Speaker 3 (38:50):
Is it?

Speaker 2 (38:51):
So we're doing very lucky to win this semi final
this weekend, so that's going to be exciting. Hopefully we will,
but it's no sure I though would be a sure thing,
but certainly not. England looks like they've the favorites to
win this thing. But yes, so the rankings are quite
like the New Zealand's chance of winning it is like
eight percent. So I'm surprised to see that the women's

(39:17):
rugby rankings I can tell you from Wikipedia or from
World Rugby. Yeah, it goes England, Canada, New Zealand, France, Island.
So England very much the top of that. So they
can probably do with our support. Whether they're doing fantastically
on social media, you're going to dream of that accessibility

(39:40):
with the All Blacks. Someone says, combination of problems on
the hill closed because of a wind. Also truck got
callt on side of the hill, go around corner wedge,
then another truck got stuck, stuck, truck has got wedge
still there is of half an hour ago, but still
closed due to wind. That sounds like it's been a
bit of a biggest muddle up there. So a bit

(40:03):
of both as an excellent in the truck they've got
to remove and extremely strong win. So the question is
why do we close roads when we once didn't, And
maybe it's because we've got more information. The old days
didn't have the information. So yeah, that's why that's perhaps
my suggestion about that, and also too, why does time
go faster as we get older? Is anyone out there

(40:27):
that doesn't find time goes faster? I don't have a
problem with it. I'm not gonna lie in bed at
night worrying about that. But it is interesting. And the
other question I had for you today another thing that
perhaps you might have some stories about. How do I
get into this one?

Speaker 3 (40:43):
Oh?

Speaker 11 (40:43):
I know.

Speaker 2 (40:43):
I was listening to a podcast today and someone was
saying how they always thought the word diaspora meant struggle,
and it's spent their whole life until they are corrected,

(41:04):
thinking the word meant something different than it meant. And
it's quite interesting because the example of the word diaspora
is that I can't think of any instance where where
you would hear the word use that you wouldn't think
it meant struggle if that's what you always thought. So
I'm curious to know if there's for you. Was there
a never in a ha moment when you realize that
you've been using a word your whole life wrongly. I

(41:29):
never think I thought myself in the last day or
two about that, And I can't think what my example
of that might have been. There's words I've always never
really thought what they meant. Like siblings was one that
always I was unsure about for a long while, but
I wonder if there's any words that you and I
never quite know. I never quite was sure what siblings meant.

(41:51):
I just didn't think it meant what it did mean,
because actually it's quite a straightforward word. But curious to
know from you if there's any word that you've misused
your whole life and when you found out was a
source of some embarrassment, because some words sound like they've
got a different meaning. I can't think of one off

(42:12):
the top of my head. Oh, condone is probably one
that I've always thought because because condone and condemn sounds
so similar, I mean, it wouldn't be the last twenty
years that that's probably I've had that one right by one.
If there's a word that you've always thought that meant
something different to what it actually meants. So I'd like
your example to those two, please, Or you might want
to talk about the current stuff, or there might be

(42:33):
something different you want to talk about also, And all
these are options for you, and they're all good options.
So get in touch of you do you want to talk.
The number is eight hundred and eighty ten eighty. If
you want to text, it's nine two nine to If
you email, it's Marcus at newstalksz'db dot co dot nz.
So time traveling faster, the wind, on roads and words

(42:53):
you've always missed knowing until you've found out. Yep. So
let's be hearing from you if you want to be
part of it. My name is Marcus Hddle twelve hundred
and eighty ten eighty nine to nine to text if
you want to come through. And the fourth topic tonight

(43:15):
is Robert Redford. Now, I don't know which of your
movies you've loved the best of which movies you want
to talk about. I haven't seen all of them. I
have seen The President's Men, and I have seen Butchcsting,
The Sun Dance Kids. I haven't seen Sting the Sting,
and I haven't seen the way we were that I

(43:37):
can remember.

Speaker 3 (43:39):
Well.

Speaker 2 (43:39):
I love Babs, but I don't know what the way
we were was. I guess it's a love story, is it.
Maybe I've seen that on TV. But I was young
and don't remember all of it. So if you want
to talk about Robert Redford, of course, he was down
here recently in Tapanoi filming Pete's Dragon not so long ago,
a couple of years back, and of course famous for

(43:59):
a source. Wasn't he the way we were? Maybe I
did see it. Here's a love story with people from
different ends of the spectrum, an unlikely couple that fools
in love. Yep to get in touched on to about that? Also,
tonight's happening out there. My missus always says I was.

(44:28):
My missers used to say I was the penultimate husband.
She thought that meant the final husband. Forty three years later,
I am reluctant to correct her. It's free good. Someone
just says innovate. I don't know what that means. Thanks
for diligence, Marcus recall her on possums on road, get
a stick, stick in the possum, chuck in the bushes.
It's typical that nobody does anything for themselves anymore. Now,

(44:51):
wonder we are so energy efficient, money efficient, economy, economy
Failing Barefoot in the Park with Jane Fonder was great,
very funny. Good evening, Louise, This is Marcus.

Speaker 12 (45:04):
Welcome, good evening, Marcus. How are you good?

Speaker 2 (45:08):
Thank you Louise.

Speaker 12 (45:10):
Okay, firstly, I don't know it's mentioned that Mark Bolan
died forty eight years ago today.

Speaker 2 (45:20):
I thought I mentioned that yesterday.

Speaker 12 (45:23):
Yesterday, Yeah, it was I read about them.

Speaker 2 (45:27):
There's there's a memory because he ended up with his
Becking singer and she was driving the car and she
still loves she still lives.

Speaker 12 (45:36):
I know, yeah, I remember seeing it was quite freaky
in an interview with him on TV and the interviewer said
to him, so, mister bole and do you think you'll
be doing this when he's fifty? And his whole face
changed and he looked at the guy and he said,

(45:57):
I don't think I'll be around when I'm fifty. Wow,
I know it was. It was quite creepy. And he
didn't drive because he was dear and he would die
of the character.

Speaker 2 (46:09):
But was it I presume he was a party guy too,
was he?

Speaker 13 (46:13):
Yeah?

Speaker 12 (46:14):
I think though. Yeah, I don't know how they managed
to crash. But I don't know about the excellent but.

Speaker 2 (46:20):
That but that with the territory in those days and
when everyone apart from Roger Whittaker.

Speaker 12 (46:27):
Yeah, that's right here, but that interview is always stuck
in my mind. You know, the way of face changed.
It's like in you. But anyway, Robert Redford so watched
Kasidine the Sun Dunce. It's the only one I remember
seeing with him minute obviously seeing others, I just don't
remember it. Yeah, always a handsome man. But of course

(46:52):
I was actually all the guy playing with him.

Speaker 2 (46:57):
Oh oh, Robert Redford, Stephen Queen, was it?

Speaker 12 (47:03):
Come on, No, no it wasn't. It was forgot just
man with the beautiful blue eyes. I forgot the name.

Speaker 2 (47:11):
But I was always a Paul Newman. Of course he did.

Speaker 12 (47:16):
That's right, Yes, yes, he as far as looks weird.
I thought that Paul Newman was way bit locking, but
but you know, he was a good actor, Robert. He
was also a pretty good director, for what I remember.
Direct a lot of movies.

Speaker 2 (47:32):
Want one, do you remember?

Speaker 12 (47:34):
No, you can't remember any of them. Some terrible memory
for movies.

Speaker 2 (47:39):
Well you don't need a memory now because it's all
on the internet. And that's ordinary people. That's what's happened
with us. We just don't need a memory. It's been
it's been, it's been outsourced.

Speaker 12 (47:52):
I know that the personal things. You still have to remember.

Speaker 2 (47:57):
Your birthday?

Speaker 12 (47:59):
Yeah, useful?

Speaker 2 (48:01):
Any words you've got wrong?

Speaker 13 (48:04):
I can't.

Speaker 12 (48:05):
I've been trying to think. I can't think many.

Speaker 2 (48:09):
That's a good thing. Well, often you don't know.

Speaker 12 (48:12):
Yeah, there could be something that I'm Yeah. It always
amuses me when I hear people say use the word
the wrong me.

Speaker 2 (48:24):
He also directed. He directed A River Runs through It.
You probably saw that movie Went Forever with bread Pit Fishing.
Do you remember that one?

Speaker 12 (48:31):
I can't remember.

Speaker 3 (48:32):
I can't remember.

Speaker 12 (48:33):
I don't think I had seen that one.

Speaker 2 (48:34):
Actually, not to talk, Louise, thank you. Literally, this is
Marcus welcome.

Speaker 3 (48:42):
Ye Ah.

Speaker 14 (48:47):
When you're happy, life is. But when you're miserable.

Speaker 2 (48:51):
Life oh okay, so does it does it mean you
get more? Does it? Does it mean you get more
miserable as you get older?

Speaker 14 (49:01):
So you're not miserable you know the time? Yeah, you
know it miserable. I mean life is just an eternity,
isn't it.

Speaker 2 (49:13):
That's right? That's your phone's better?

Speaker 12 (49:14):
Then?

Speaker 2 (49:15):
How are you? How are you at the moment?

Speaker 14 (49:18):
I'm not miserable. I'm very heavy person. So life's going
very quick.

Speaker 2 (49:23):
Brilliant, that's what I want to hear. Don't like your
phone line, but thank you, Lily eighteen past nine words words.
Jimmy Hendrix fifty five years tomorrow died. Keep your texts
coming through, people to text. I'm just bring you sam

(49:47):
Up the horse Whisperer was one of Robert Redford's with
Sam Neil. I always thought sanction meant permission, but I
found that it means penalty. Oh yes, I can see
how you thought it meant permission. Margs was Paul Newman
had the Sill addressings, not Robert Redford. That's right, Marcus.

(50:09):
I always thought hoyperloy meant posh people. I might have
fallen for that one too. My mate James used to
always think ecstatic meant someone felt electrocuted. Marcus, a great
sho was always a friend told me about would always

(50:29):
struggled with this plethora. I always it means a lot
to me. Well, I think it's a joke now shee.
Some of the texts need more care with the actual typing.
Hold your horses, greed with you soon. Twenty one past nine, Hello, Greg,

(50:50):
this is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 15 (50:52):
Oh hi, I am first time caller here. So the
time going fast is quite an easy one to understand. Yes,
as you get older, your perception of time changes, because
your experience of time changes. When you're ten, one year
of your life is a huge CHUNKI of life. So

(51:15):
you know the school holidays go forever. But when you're forty,
you know you've experienced more life, so to you, a
year feels shorter. And then when you're eighty it's even faster.
And the older you get you feel this, I'm going faster,
and you want to create more and it exacerbates your

(51:36):
perception of time and you're trying to squeeze more in,
which just makes it go faster and faster. So you're
the young person hasn't experienced a lot of time, and
to them, you know, a year is a long time
partankularly life.

Speaker 2 (51:54):
Yeah, and but it'd be hard to work out if
that's It'd be hard to prove that, wouldn't it.

Speaker 15 (52:03):
Well, everybody experiences it, you know, as we all.

Speaker 2 (52:06):
Get Oh no, I know that everyone experiences time getting faster.
But I think the psychologists are or the people that
study that are have several different reasons why they think
it happens. Will that be fair to say?

Speaker 15 (52:19):
I'm sure there are many reasons, you know, why it happens.
Depending on the type of person you know, how much
you try to do generally in life, or whether you're
you know, you want to sit around and read a lot.
Time might go different for different people. They do.

Speaker 2 (52:36):
But if it's a situation that that time goes slower
because we have new less, new experiences, that probably means
that we can change that by doing well, Yeah, by
doing more your stuff.

Speaker 15 (52:55):
When you when you have your whole days, you tend
to slow down at it takes time, takes a longer.

Speaker 2 (53:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 15 (53:06):
And then when you're in the middle of the working
yesa and you're in a position coming up to the
end of the month or whatever you might be doing
versus a Christmas when you take some time off and
things seem to go but slower. That's sorry.

Speaker 2 (53:24):
Yep, that's fine. Nice to hear from me. Rig Thank
you twenty four past nine. If you want to be
a part of the show, hit til twelve. Time speeding
up as you get older? What's that about fiction and
non fiction? Took me a while to figure out. There
we go, Marcus, only thirteen to the NPC. What does
that mean? Release the whole lot? Does anyone realize Palmerston,

(53:46):
authors Winney than Wellington, Thank you for that, Marcus. The
word flagulate, which means to whip or to beat, I
always thought it meant something really really rude. Was horrified
when my boss used it once. Yeah, I can understand
how you meant flatulate meant something rude. But also want
to talk about the perception of time and why that

(54:08):
speeds up because the brain and codes novel experience is
much more richly than it does every day ones. That's
the bit I like, so if we do more new stuff,
then we could actually slow it down. Maybe the science

(54:30):
part of the brain receives fewer images that it was
trained to receive when young. It's kind of quite complicated. Hello, Bill,
this is Marcus. Welcome killed a Marcus.

Speaker 3 (54:41):
How you man?

Speaker 2 (54:42):
You're a Bill?

Speaker 3 (54:42):
Good? Thank you good. An an always always comes before
a vowel in most cases, and it always baffles me
why they say opinion? Is it because of the age
of sign it or headed that creep in?

Speaker 2 (55:01):
Tell me tell me that again an opinion?

Speaker 3 (55:04):
Yeah, like you say a an option. So an always
comes before the word with a vowel starting with a
vowl the next word. But but you use it when
you say when you say an honest opinion or an
honest attempt to point, I mean that did that creep in?

(55:24):
Because the h an honest is silent.

Speaker 2 (55:28):
What's another word that starts? What's another word that starts
with a silent H.

Speaker 3 (55:33):
Well, I don't know, an hour and well yeah, yeah,
so that's another one. Yeah, okay, so so did that?
Did that just creep in? Because because the H is
silent and.

Speaker 2 (55:44):
I imagine that our honest opinion sound would be sound
weird to say, wouldn't it?

Speaker 3 (55:51):
Well, you say a hotel, don't you?

Speaker 2 (55:53):
Or an hotel occasion hotel? What's another what's another word
with the silent H? Well, h as they say on
the NRL H. Yeah, yeah, what is another one with
a silent age beginning homage and honest?

Speaker 3 (56:09):
And the thing that gets me too is people who
is a sign writing? They put these signs on the
side of the road, and they always like there's a
sentence and it's got your paying too much? If you're
doing this, you're paying too much, you know what I mean?
Yours like a it's a I don't know it was
a noun or pronoun or something, but it's supposed to

(56:32):
be you are. But they always they always have your
which is which is bad English?

Speaker 2 (56:38):
How is it supposed to be? Where is it supposed
to be?

Speaker 3 (56:42):
You are? They like they have the part you are
and they shorten it to you as an yo.

Speaker 2 (56:48):
You are okay, they say you saying you are paying
too much, and they say you're paying yea yeah.

Speaker 3 (56:54):
Okay, they was your and and they use it. They
use it on TV as well. You know, they always
say your instead of you are.

Speaker 2 (57:02):
But you can contract you are to your that's a legitimate.
But you've got to pronounce you're not.

Speaker 3 (57:07):
No, no, it's not it's it's your. It's not your.
Your Your is a separate word to you.

Speaker 2 (57:15):
Oh, I see what you're saying. Why are you saying?
Why are you apostrophe as you are not you your?

Speaker 3 (57:23):
Yeah? Yeah, exactly, yeah, it's why you are. Then they
don't have apostrophe in an R. Yeah, so it's short
for you are, yeah, right, rather than your. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (57:36):
Okay, So how's it pronounced?

Speaker 3 (57:42):
Well, you were, you were, you were going to the movies.
It's not you're going to the movies. It's you. It's
either you are or you were you were going to
the movies, not not you're going to the movies.

Speaker 2 (57:53):
Okay, wow, okay.

Speaker 3 (57:57):
It's it's it's it's very lazy. I mean, we're getting
worse as far as you pronunciation getting worse.

Speaker 2 (58:02):
You can also say the language is evolving. I suppose.

Speaker 3 (58:07):
Yeah, but it's it's bad. It's bad. It's pretty bad
when you have a big sign, you know, it's thirty
foot in their twenty foot wide advertising something and using
using your instead of you are.

Speaker 16 (58:21):
Mmm.

Speaker 2 (58:23):
Maybe, but now I feel about that.

Speaker 3 (58:27):
That's that's that's my week take on words.

Speaker 2 (58:30):
Thank you. I'm looking at process and now.

Speaker 3 (58:43):
You are.

Speaker 2 (58:44):
I think I think he's wrong. I think it's pronounced your.
I think why o you apostrophe are? He has pronounced
you are. I'm always convinced about that, So I think
he's got it wrong. And this I was mishearing him.
I think why owe you apostrophe are? Has pronounced your?
So I'm not entirely sure what I mean. I gave

(59:06):
a bit of a that, but I'm not entirely sure
what he's saying. But fight me for that if you disagree,
because that's kind of what I reckon. I mean, he
might be right, but he doesn't sound like it to me.
If I've done this, call Josephine, this is Marcus. Welcome.
Hi Josephine.

Speaker 17 (59:26):
Oh hello Marcus. I'm a bit late joining the program. Yes,
I think you're right about your I think that's quite correct.
I think the way you said its correct.

Speaker 2 (59:34):
Yeah, I think so too.

Speaker 17 (59:36):
But what I really mean about was Robert Redford because
he was such a brilliant He was a very good
producer and an excellent actor. That Horse Whisperer was very good.
And do you recall The Sundance Kid with Paul Newman?

Speaker 15 (59:48):
Yes, yes, yes, yes, brilliant.

Speaker 9 (59:50):
It was a wonderful, wonderful film, great film.

Speaker 2 (59:55):
As you're talking about that, am I thinking about The
Bridges of Medicine County? Was it one of his two?

Speaker 17 (59:59):
No? No, that's what's the other?

Speaker 8 (01:00:02):
West?

Speaker 18 (01:00:02):
Oh?

Speaker 17 (01:00:03):
That was Merl Streep. And I'm just trying to think
of his name. He's still alive, very very good actor.
I can't think of his name. No, no, No. That the
other one, which was absolutely outstanding, and it was a
few years ago now, was Out of Africa with Meryl Streep.
It's brilliant.

Speaker 8 (01:00:21):
Okay, have you ever seen it?

Speaker 2 (01:00:23):
No, I've got the book at home which I've intempting
to read.

Speaker 17 (01:00:25):
I've read that it's a true story. It's a true
story set in the early part of the last century,
and of course it's all about white Kenya when it
was being settled and Robert Redford was one of the
very played the part of the I can't think of
his name, but he paid the part of one of
the great wife hunters. And he was one of the
first to fly a plane, you know, in that time

(01:00:46):
chasing big game.

Speaker 2 (01:00:48):
Yeah, it's interesting because they've gone through all the great
movies he invade, including all the presidents, mean and stuff.
I mean, there's some you know, there's some great movies
from that great age to go back and watch.

Speaker 17 (01:00:57):
I think from that tremendous he was a very good actor.
But out of Africa, I'm sure you'd really enjoy this.
Oh it's wonderful. Do try and see it. But I've
got the true but the history, it's true history. It's
what actually happened when the Europeans came into Africa, particularly Kenya,
all up in this area. And it's very very it's
a very good story.

Speaker 7 (01:01:17):
It's true.

Speaker 17 (01:01:17):
It's a wonderful story.

Speaker 2 (01:01:19):
Okay, I appreciate that, Josephine, thank you. Marcus. List is
regarding time flying by fast as your age could be.
When you travel destination, it feels like it takes ages
to get there, as opposed to traveling back home. That's right.
Always quicker on the return, and that's the same thing,
I think, because you're not taking in as much new stuff.
The Great Great Gatsby was other hit movie for Redford

(01:01:42):
from Cedric Curre. This one won't be good to read
on are you use a not ann before a word
starting with a vowel sound, not a vow letter, So
it's an hour and honest man. Also for words like
union and university, it's a union, not an union, because

(01:02:02):
the first out of this word is a constant sound
like why and yogurt. Also, that guy's wrong, you're and
you are pronounced identically. He's fancy picking that cross to
die on. Oh gee, there's some interesting texts. I'll wait

(01:02:27):
one hundred and eighty today in nine to text. Oh
that's a very interesting text. Now here's a text that
I think is gonna blow some minds. And I'm not
quite sure what I say now this one, Now, this

(01:02:47):
one's got me confused. Actually, sorry about this. I've got
to just sort something out here. No, that one's not
quite right. Someone's trying to trick me with that one.
Someone says, I've been saying toma lanui instead of manui.
But I think it is tom annoy. Oh your sounds

(01:03:13):
like bore. Your sounds like sewer. No, that's not quite right.
The way your is pronounced or you are as pronounced
as it's pronounced, it's pronounced your. I can tell you're.

Speaker 1 (01:03:28):
Looking at how to pronounce these phrase as well as
her to say more confusing words and expressions, So make
sure to stay tuned to the channel.

Speaker 3 (01:03:36):
This is the contraction of the phrase you are. How
do you see it?

Speaker 2 (01:03:43):
You're you're, you're, you're pretty far away from ten. I
don't think that's like sewer. Yes, Bridges of the Bridges
of Medicine County was Clint Eastwood. That's right, Well that
could have been. I'm right, Red would have been great
in that. I enjoyed that movie with the Wooden Bridges
covered bridges twenty four to ten hit or twelve. I'm

(01:04:07):
mainly talking about the words you've always missed. You've always
thought meant something different than what you've actually what actually mean.
Never got to the way words sound and pronunciation, which
is always Marcus great show.

Speaker 3 (01:04:22):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:04:22):
My favorite part of Butchercasse in The Silence Skin was
when they need to jump off the cliff once his
I cut swarm. The other says, are you're kidding this
swim will probably kill you? That's right? Twenty three to ten,
twenty from ten people. Marcus yours short for you, are

(01:04:43):
your indicates belonging to your is not the correct spilling
of your Unfortunately, and some educated people don't seem another difference.
It's nothing to do with the language evolving. It's simply ignorance.
You've completely missed the point he was making. The point
was is making. It's pronounced differently. Oh, any was making
the other point too as well. But yeah, I think
we will gather that. I don't think anyone in the
right mind would think that there's not confusion around those.

(01:05:08):
Paul Human and Tom Cruise in the Color of Money,
great movie, Rowity, thank you. What about the pronunciation of
the word Nelson or is it now sun as so
many now call it? Oh wow, I haven't heard of
that Nelson Nelson Nelson. Oh you found it quick than

(01:05:35):
I had down. I had to get Dan to work
out some of the stuff on. It's a bit different
that one, though, wasn't it. It's not quite as complicated
as the one in the picture. We're just looking at
ant farms. Not that we want ant farms, but well
I would No, I don't want an ant farm. Yeah,
it looks like it's wider dan and there's those yellow bits,

(01:05:55):
those red bits in it. It's about twice. But yes,
they've tricked me with that. I'm having trouble with. What
happens for me is things pop up on pop up
on TEAMO, then I click on them and can never
find them. How annoying is that? Talk about Robert Redford movies? Marcus,
A Walk in the woods not one of us popular movies,

(01:06:15):
but I like at old age and men doing physical
long walks come to New Zealand to make one movie.
Sad Day Sunny Monaco, nineteen to ten. How are you
going people? School holidays? Next week? By the way, and yeah, wow,
cheapers can't tell you too much, but next week's going

(01:06:37):
to be interesting. Nineteen to ten, High Val. This is Marcus. Welcome,
Hi Marcus.

Speaker 19 (01:06:44):
I used to work with a lady and she used
one word that we always have got laugh at. She say,
matron says to use your own excression instead of discretion.

Speaker 2 (01:07:03):
Oh wow, And she said that, you know, and oh,
use your own expression. Wow, that's a real miss. That's
a misunderstanding that one, isn't it?

Speaker 20 (01:07:15):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:07:15):
And what did she wanted? What she said when she
had to say expression? You should have tested her on that.

Speaker 19 (01:07:20):
You never thought to ask her that one. We never pointed.
We never pointed it out to her.

Speaker 2 (01:07:27):
Was she the matron?

Speaker 19 (01:07:29):
No, No, she'sed. We worked as an old folks time
and we were nurse says night shift. And she said
that you know we were TV just some patient makes
always says to use your own excression.

Speaker 2 (01:07:47):
Brilliant, good one, our thank you, someone says Marcus. Until recently,
I thought all intensive purposes instead of all intents and purposes. Also,
radio said that Eastwood was the most overrated act even
no range. She didn't need any range, just had that
squint squint eastward. You doing Westerns like that, you said
that far away look in your eye. Some actors don't

(01:08:11):
need to be good actors as long as they've got
a good face that the camera likes. If a camera
loves a face, you can't You don't need to act,
you can just be. I can't think who those people are,
but certainly Clint Eastwood would be one. I don't know
who the others are. Someone's emailed me and said, Marcus,
you are wrong. I don't know what it's about. That
man was correct. No, he's not. I know that your

(01:08:34):
is a contraction of you are. But what I'm saying
is wrong about is the pronunciation of it. We all
know about your, your, and your, and people get it wrong.
But good on them.

Speaker 3 (01:08:46):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:08:46):
There might be some farmer trying to sell some swedes
on the side of the road and spells a sign wrong.
Who's got a problem with that? It's all good, get
in touch. We all know about your and your and
the difference and when to use them. I think one

(01:09:06):
is a contraction of you are. One is possessive. Where
are you all car keys? Not where are you are khakis?
But I don't want to get to a grammar argument,
because that's not how unformed. Why do we close roads
for the wind when we never used to? And here's

(01:09:29):
a remarkably potentially ignorant and potentially sex at question to ask,
and I'm going to ask it anyway, and he just
text me the answer. But with the Rugby World Cup,
a lot of the women, most of the women have

(01:09:52):
re elaborate braids because you need your hair to be
braided when you're playing rugby because you can't have a
high pony because it will slip and it will cause problems.
Would those players get their hair braided just for that game,
and would they get it braided for every game or

(01:10:12):
without a tournament where they leave it braided, they must
get it braided every day? Am I right? Yeah? So
it must be a huge anyway, I don't know what
you want to say about that, Marcus. If you are
as contract down to your then why then as you
were not contract down to your It's a good point, Marcus.

(01:10:34):
Move here from millwater a strange wood in terms of
different meanings as heterogical heterogical. If the word heterological is heterogical,
then it is the opposite and cannot be heterological, but
it's autological. I have don't have to read that again, Marcus.
One that's going to be recently as a hearing myriad
of instead of a myriad of. Apparently it's correct, but

(01:10:56):
sounds wrong to me, Marcus. A child, I watched Thunderbirds
and Star Wars and offer the character to say take
evasive action. For many years I mistakenly thought the phrase
was taken a base of action. Thanks, Marcus, I was
today years old, to learn. It is for all intents
and purposes, Rachel. Effluent and af fluid is definitely one

(01:11:20):
you don't want to get mixed up. When I hear
it on the news, it cracks me up. Oh, Marcus,
you can leave braids in for two to three weeks
if you like. Basically whenever you want to wash your hair.
They likely wash their hair daily as it's full of
mud and grass. So I imagine they get their hair braided,
play the game, then go back to ordinary for the

(01:11:40):
week off of them, so it must be several hours
before each match. Marcus. I have a friend who says
versa vice. I find it's so funny and try hard.
It's adorable, or vice verse or versa vice. That's great.
That sounds like an affectation cheapness. Get in touch here
till twelve. Anything happens in the world. I'll let you

(01:12:02):
know about when the four hours I'm on here. That's
my promise to you. You won't die wondering it's not
happened yet, though I think Trump is in the UK.
I'll tell you what. I don't really like the Royals,
but I reckon William and Kate looking God, he suits
the beard looks quite good with it. I'm talking about
William Andrew looks like a haunted ghost. First time they

(01:12:27):
would have been to one of the royals had a
Catholic funeral, because of course the royal they buried today
was the first royal ever to convert. They'd be a
bit different for them all. Yes, Duchess of Kent. So
why was it the Westminster Cathedral? I don't know fully
about that. Is that just where royals get buried. I'm

(01:12:48):
quite interested in that. Why it was there? Someone will
know any who. Now we are talking about words you've
always not known the right meaning. Robert Redford once owned
a ski era in Utah, which he renamed Sundance Mountain Resort.
It became the home of the Sundance Film Festival. That

(01:13:10):
is correct. I always get effect and effect mixed up
in a sentence. So it's grab and dust off the
dictionary from the bookshelf. Marcus the man was obviously saying
the silence and correct as I were using, you're instead
of your wasting our time and your money.

Speaker 3 (01:13:24):
Ian.

Speaker 2 (01:13:24):
That's right, but you know, give them a break. Then
he read under the way they the way it's pronounced,
I walking backwards my friends like to see the back
of me. That's an affectation.

Speaker 3 (01:13:36):
Mike.

Speaker 2 (01:13:38):
Anyho, get in touch, you on to be a part
of it. Eight away from ten gosh, terrible flooding in Queenstown.
I'm thinking of you people. That whole roundabout on the
way to fern Hill is just all underwater. So yeah,
I don't know if the lake's up, but jeep, it's creepers.
That's gonna be the end of Queenstown. I mean, the
traffic's a disaster anyway, but now if the roads start
flooding regularly, for goodness sake, By the way, and I

(01:14:01):
apologize for my ignorance, the royals were at the funeral
of the Duchess of Kent at Westminster at Westminster Cathedral.
So there's a Westminster Cathedral and a Westminster Abbey quite
close to each other. So normally, of course the royals
hanging at the Westminster Abbey. But the first royal to
have recon to converted back to Catholicism, she was at

(01:14:23):
Westminster Cathedral. Butt the royals behave quite well since it
wasn't their place or in their morning suits. She was
one who always saw at the tennis with the high Bob.
She was my favorite royal. Bonius realized that once she died,
I'd actually recognize her. I thought, that's right. And she
taught in an ordinary school to walk with kings and
keep the common touch. Literally, so there's that. How are

(01:14:48):
you going? People? Welcome to show. My name is Marcus
good Evening hitdle twelve oh eight hundred and eighty tati
and nine. I don't want the Dan and our talk
at ant farms and the brakes. I don't want an
ant farm, but ge there's some good ones now. I
don't think ant farms ever everready worked that well. But
this one looks like currently unavailable. Did you see that, Dan?

(01:15:12):
Here's the temmi one looks fantastic. What's all that stuff
in the back? That is that dirt?

Speaker 3 (01:15:17):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:15:18):
You want to watch a YouTube video of how it works?
Any who get in touch? You want to be part
of the show hit til twelve. After the success of
my Sea Monkeys, I might go on ant farm. I
don't know if you actually have the right ants. And
you said you probably need I talk to Rude about it.
You think you probably a giant ants. Otherwise it's a
bit underwhelming. Marcus hoyperloy is often misused to mean the

(01:15:42):
well off, posh people. It actually means the rebel. That's right.
It's got a very literal translation. And your people think
it sounds posh because that's right. Often with the word,
you think it sounds like the word. So that's why,
like uncondoning, condemn. It's ancient Greek hoi poloi, meaning the
many or the people. Marcus, I hope WTF meant wine time?

(01:16:10):
Finally loved that? Or get in touch you want to
be part of the next howar we are talking? Oh gosh,
it's been far ranging, mister Falloun on the lever attacker
road and the fact they close it too often. I
don't know why he was going to get an election things?
What was that about? You get them made locally, wouldn't you.

(01:16:33):
There'd be a printer in Masterton. You wouldn't go across
the hill to get them, surely.

Speaker 3 (01:16:38):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (01:16:38):
A person makes a good point that hoyperloy is probably
confused with some people with hoity twitty, because of course
they're in the opposite, But there could be a convergence there.
We're doing about words that you've always misunderstood. Your whole life,
and maybe you're still We wouldn't know if you're still
and misunderstand them, would you welcome? My name is Marcus

(01:16:59):
good Evening, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty so words
you've always misunderstood? I thinking dear spur a means struggle
or something else you've got around those lines. Also, we
are talking a little bit about that even attackers. And
while we are so keen to close roads with high winds,
are we are we too keen to do it? We've

(01:17:21):
got to close the Harbor Bridge because it's not but
it's not built well now because a truck went into
one of those center spans. What was that called? We're
that now? Quiz what that center span was called? It's
it called that? What was it called? It always comes
up in the news, Dan, do you remember that a
spreader or something hit the what was it called? If

(01:17:41):
it wasn't, the quiz it should have been because he
were having it now spreader? Was it a spreader? The
center arch? What's the center arch of the harbor bridge called? People?
If you're an engineer, text me about that, because little first,
and then we can put in the quiz what's it called?

(01:18:06):
It's a spreader, it's a it had a kind of
an engineering technical term. And what was it called toroal No, Yes,
if you google up harbor Bridge crash, truck span or something,
it might say it. Someone says, w T if they

(01:18:28):
thought was Wednesday, Thursday Friday. I quite like that. If
you want to talk on you if there's something do
use you want. We also talk about the fires and Canterbury,
the floods and Queenstown, any of the other disasters that
have happening, and get in touch Padden what I mean strut?

Speaker 3 (01:18:46):
Was it strut?

Speaker 21 (01:18:48):
Well?

Speaker 2 (01:18:48):
I thought it was a more sciencey word than that,
but you might be right.

Speaker 3 (01:18:53):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (01:18:53):
By the way, the tam venues in is the favorite
for this match against Canada, a dollar fifty five to
win versus Canada playing two forty. This is the World Cup,
the World Cup of rugby, yep, which doesn't get enough attention,
I don't think. But it's growing, but you wouldn't know it.

(01:19:14):
With the coverage of the they're still going about the
Allbacks day and the news in the Hill they're going
on about the all Backs ten worst losses. Gosh, they've
milked that like an old goat. Actually old Cow would
be a better analogy for that one ten past ten.
You've got to be part of the show. There's something
different you want to mention jumping. I'm not topic of
verse tonight. Heavy rain warnings and strong when warnings are

(01:19:36):
on placement non author and most of the south winds.
One thirty k's a forecast for christ Church and the
em Attacker Hill Road is closed. In nineteen forty one,
flogging and whipping was abolished in New Zealand. Goodness me,
I didn't realize we could do that for so long
and no idea about that. I presume that was as a punishment, right,

(01:20:01):
I had no idea that we could flog and whip
till so late. Let's a worry some would want it
brought back, I would think probably often in the early
talkback people would talk about bringing back the stocks. Yes,
flogging and whipping mainly for juveniles. Eighteen sixty seven to

(01:20:26):
nineteen forty one, seventeen men were flogged received between ten
and fifteen strokes of the cat. Between nineteen nineteen and
nineteen thirty five, until nineteen thirty six, youths under sixteen
could be whipped for a right range of offenses a
wide range, a wider variety offenses than adults, theft, breaking, entering,

(01:20:48):
and wilful damage. But when they reintroduced the death penalty
in nineteen fifty, flogging was not reintroduced. There we go.
That's something I've learned today. Put that in the quizdine.
That's a good one. It might be the word stension.

(01:21:13):
I think there's a stension a bridge. Yes, strong vertical posts.
Can you google all can have a bridge stension? If
it comes up, that might be what I'm thinking of.
But thank you for that. Thirteen past ten. If you
want to be part of the show, neede your calls now, yes,

(01:21:34):
do come through. Oh that's why I was going to
talk about more topics.

Speaker 3 (01:21:36):
Wasn't over?

Speaker 2 (01:21:37):
They've got sidetracked by a sidetracked by flogging. Now other
things you might want to about. Robert Redford, the weather,
by the way, the Perrelli. The roundabout has finished. That
eagle look spectacular. They began construction in twenty twenty four.
Work has wrapped up on it. Sixty million dollars roundabout brilliant.

(01:22:04):
It's got underpasses. So there we go. And the Bird
of Peace is the statue wanted sculpture. Sculpture you'd call it,
I think to Manu Ranga Marie the bird of Peace,
Fred Graham, re esteemed sculptor who died recently. So there

(01:22:26):
we go. Looks pretty spectacular. Actually, be in touch if
you want to be fourteen past ten Marcus. My husband
says too Retz as t rex and a beast as
a beast. He refuses to be corrected. I love people
that double down. That's great fourteen past ten. If you

(01:22:49):
want to be a part of it, bridge parts as
it does say stension No, but they did say stenchion
and it didn't they. I'd like to read that fancy
a status never worked word I've never used. I probably
say that last time I was talk about today. The
secret sounds gone. Did you hear that? Pistachio nut? Pistachio nut?

(01:23:13):
How do they manage that? The host not know what
it is? Maybe who knows? Does a woman so there's
one trust whether she works for ZM?

Speaker 3 (01:23:22):
Does she? Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:23:23):
Wow, she was quite good. So I wondered what I
just saw the video of it? Yes, okay, so she
there all the time? Is going on anyway? Evan? Hello,
it's Marcus.

Speaker 3 (01:23:35):
Welcome yes, good evening.

Speaker 2 (01:23:38):
Marcus could be a trust or a stension or a strut.

Speaker 10 (01:23:48):
And when did they get rid of the cane? That's
another form of flogging.

Speaker 2 (01:23:53):
Yeah, I got funny that old men would want that
men would want to whip children, isn't it how perverted?

Speaker 5 (01:23:59):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:24:00):
Yeah, you would have got whipped, would you?

Speaker 10 (01:24:02):
Evan gotle times a somebody ha stole me smokes out of.

Speaker 2 (01:24:07):
Me bag once, classic, classic place for it to happen.
So why did you get caned?

Speaker 5 (01:24:15):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:24:15):
Exactly?

Speaker 2 (01:24:17):
Do you know the answer?

Speaker 16 (01:24:19):
What?

Speaker 10 (01:24:21):
Because you weren't allowed smokes at school?

Speaker 2 (01:24:24):
But did someone steal them then give them to the teacher?

Speaker 10 (01:24:27):
Now I got caught out?

Speaker 2 (01:24:29):
Oh well he got caught smoking by a teacher, and that.

Speaker 10 (01:24:35):
He got caught out stealing me smokes out of me
bag at the woodwork class.

Speaker 2 (01:24:39):
So someone saw them. Yeah, the teacher saw them.

Speaker 10 (01:24:44):
Oh I guess so, Flip. I can't remember the story
quite but I know I know he sort of let
me off because it didn't really hurt.

Speaker 2 (01:24:57):
Yeah, I'm just trying to think about the psychology of
a woodwork teacher hitting a kid for someone else sending smokes.
You're fear enough, Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:25:06):
He did it pretty lightly, sir.

Speaker 10 (01:25:08):
Oh, well, I thought that I wasn't actually in the wrong.

Speaker 2 (01:25:12):
Yeah, I don't think you were. Thank you. Seventeen past ten,
Marcus don't know this word anymore. Don't hear this word
any Wilson's duvets arrived back when, but it took me
a while to figure it out. Counterpain has not led
to window Paine. Very good, Marcus. Me and my friend
got the belt three times on a hand in the
office by the principal of Pahunger Valley Primary School nineteen

(01:25:35):
ninety four. Pretty sure that was not allowed. When did
I get whipped? I got whipped? And about I forget
what year it would be, seventy nine eighty A round
about then, always the weak teachers. Could someone tell me
how I can watch the women's pol vot final tonight.
That's a good question, Dan. We've got heaps of Kiwis
there North Shore Represents? When where's that on?

Speaker 3 (01:25:57):
Dan?

Speaker 2 (01:25:59):
It'll be on a YouTube channel or something, I reckon.
I tried to look on my Sky channels last night
to see if I can watch I like, I love
track and Field. We should have reporters there. Actually, some
could argue that this is more significant than the Olympics.
And gosh, we've done very well with a high jump
of the three thousand steeple chase where you get a

(01:26:20):
medal in that at Los Angeles, I'll beamish might get
his hands shot by Trump. They're a guy that keeps
jumping higher and high. That mail Polvocky. That's extraordinary how
high he's jumping, Guys, much as I have to have oxygen,
it's unbelievable. He went for a firmer stick. Diane, good evening.

Speaker 8 (01:26:46):
I think you're looking for a staunchion.

Speaker 2 (01:26:49):
Now, what does that mean?

Speaker 11 (01:26:52):
It's an upright hole. They if you have a look
at boats, they have them all around the outside of boats,
and they have the lifelines going through them.

Speaker 8 (01:27:02):
The staunchions.

Speaker 2 (01:27:04):
Did you say boots coats, boats, boats, boats, boats.

Speaker 11 (01:27:09):
Boats skill holes to go around the outside of the debt.

Speaker 2 (01:27:14):
Yeah, a consortion, brilliant. Appreciate that, Dane. Thank you. Nineteen
past ten head or twelve. Now, if you want to
watch the pole vault, you need to go to World
Athletic dot org. World Athletics dot org. They have a

(01:27:38):
free live stream World Athletics dot org. You have to
make an account with your email address. And your country.
Dan has done that and it was successful. A Dan,
you can't choose what event. You're just watching the coverage,
but imagine they'll cover that. I'm going to text this

(01:28:00):
person back and I'd like to talk to you people.
I think we need another topic. Actually we're doing all right,
but it's bits and bobsy. So if you want to
spark it up, not with something outrageous, but you might
have something to say, get in touch. Oh Wa eight
one hundred eighty ten eighty. There's something different you want
to mention good you can embrace that. I don't know

(01:28:22):
what it is tonight, but I'm sure you have something
to say. Twenty three past ten, Powerball not struck, climbs
to five million homes without power and eight fires in
Canterbury and there's a road snowfall warning for the Milford
Road and for the Crown Range, so she's happening. Eighty
homes are without power in Geraldine. That's about all I've

(01:28:45):
got for you tonight, but at least we're getting coverage
of the weather. That's good stuff. And words you've always
thought had a different meaning to that to what their
actual meaning was, or people that you know, I guess
we can broaden it out. You can knick on your
boss that had a misunderstanding undred eighty ten eighty. The

(01:29:09):
other question you've got for us, good, We've got that
woman sorted out with how to watch the pole vault
and the them Attacker Hill Road is to remain closed
overnight due to severe gales. It's pretty significant, that, isn't it.
It's it meant a long way round if you're walking
working late in Wellington. Truck driver chapped in his vehicle
too in Canterbury. So there we go. Just saying as

(01:29:33):
anything new with the weatherwise, I need to tell you
straight away Southbridge fire is contained to a two point
six kilometer perimeter and the weather system is heading towards Wellington.
The gusts on the limb Attacker Hill were one hundred
and forty one CA's per h. The winds will remain,

(01:29:53):
it will remain closed or the winds drop it is
safe to do so. So it's pretty strong winds.

Speaker 3 (01:29:58):
There.

Speaker 2 (01:30:01):
Where are that guy with his possums? I've just remember
that again. Twenty five past ten. Oh, get in touch
with people you want to talk twenty eight past ten,
also talking about Robert Redford's movies, the classics. But yeah,
I think what I think what Sky should do is
actually ev it's got Sky movies. I think what Sky
should do is probably have a bit of a go

(01:30:22):
round of them so we can actually start watching all
of them. I'd like to spend a day watching Robert
Redford's movies, all the Presents, when I'd watch the one
with Barbara Streisan, cause someone tell me about them. I
don't you might remember it when I talk about that
would be of interest to me. I like to hear that.
So get in touch. You got something to say about that?

(01:30:44):
Anything else you want to talk about? Feel free? Oh
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty and nine nine two
text if you want to come through anything else you
want to mention good? Be good to hear from you. Now,
let me think, get those texts coming words. You've always

(01:31:04):
misunderstood what had the wrong idea of what they meant?
Quite that is a topic. I can't think of one
for myself though, So like a humble Bragg, didn't it
driving over the Crown Range slight rain no show five degrees?
Thanks Kate Marcus, the headmaster at Hagley Park High and

(01:31:26):
Christ just told me to bend over. I said no,
you bend over and left the school, never to return.
Marcus wants to have a tall pole with ropes hanging
off at type to wheel at the top, second swing right,
hanging off the ropes. I always call it the Mayflower
because I read that's what happened to the mast off
the Mayflower. Very good, thanks for that. Hello Andrew, this

(01:31:49):
is Marcus.

Speaker 18 (01:31:49):
Welcome you, Marcus say this evening good.

Speaker 2 (01:31:53):
Thank you.

Speaker 18 (01:31:55):
Yeah, I know you get sick of people asking you that,
but anyway, it's just a force of habit. Now, I
was going to talk to you about last night. I
went to Kevin Bluddy Wilson, Yes at the town here
in christ Church, and I couldn't believe it was such
a good crowd. But everyone knew the words but me,
Oh really, well, I just I mean I used to

(01:32:17):
I mean it's probably thirty five years ago since I
listened to him. He's now seventy four. You know, it's
still got I mean I knew a few of them, but.

Speaker 2 (01:32:26):
You know, you know the Christmas song, wouldn't you?

Speaker 18 (01:32:30):
Absolutely? I'm still waiting for my bike.

Speaker 2 (01:32:32):
Yeah, exactly where's my bike?

Speaker 3 (01:32:34):
Yep?

Speaker 2 (01:32:35):
So Santa Claus Santa Claus, where's my bike is there?
I think that's get it goes?

Speaker 18 (01:32:41):
Then I know you won't get me back on again.

Speaker 3 (01:32:45):
Again.

Speaker 18 (01:32:46):
Yeah, no, it's true. So the crowd I was looking
around and probably people in there sort of late mid
to late fifties sixties were all singing the songs, and
I thought, man, but he's got over three million followers.
And then he's got his daughter that does a bit
of an act before he starts.

Speaker 2 (01:33:05):
I saw he's pretty hard on social media. They work
hard at it. I mean, doesn't it's not just turn
up and fill the theaters. Boy, They put in the
work for sure.

Speaker 18 (01:33:13):
And they're all, you know, she's in Chicago. The son
was followed the same leaders he did and became an electrician,
then a musician, and then went and became a pilot
for Quantas. So they're not silly.

Speaker 2 (01:33:28):
Wow. And and the daughter who's the support actually lives
in Chicago and just comes and does she does sort
of boardy songs as well.

Speaker 18 (01:33:34):
Does she She's not someone I introduced to my mother.

Speaker 2 (01:33:39):
Yeah, okay, her name is Jenny and her surname is Taylia.
So that sort of yeah, well, that sort of shows
where she's coming from doesn't that Well.

Speaker 18 (01:33:49):
She's coming from Australia and tailia from Australia. Yes, but no,
she she was very foul mouthed, but you know it
was it was good. But you know, they he's pretty
clear and that now they're going to Ireland on the
World tour. But there was people there from Nowson that
had been here. They were going over the Gray and

(01:34:11):
Mouth down to the n Eden or to see him.

Speaker 2 (01:34:14):
Oh that's sick to be following. I mean it's good,
but you wouldn't follow around the country, would you.

Speaker 18 (01:34:19):
Well once in the last times enough cheap.

Speaker 2 (01:34:21):
As creepers anyone under fifty.

Speaker 18 (01:34:26):
You just there's three young lads probably in the early
twenties behind me. But you know, apart from that, it
was all my age, you know, so the early fifties
and I don't even know.

Speaker 2 (01:34:36):
I mean, it's kind of a remarkable career really because
you'd never hear his songs played on the radio. I
don't think people ever purchased an album these days because
they don't do that. I suppose it's all on his
website and YouTube.

Speaker 11 (01:34:47):
Is it?

Speaker 18 (01:34:48):
Well, he said he's got I think two hundred and
ten songs so that's ten albums. I think he said yes,
And he's always got others coming out. But you know,
with the where they're all living away from each other
so much, everything's done he in the studio, in the
the son that's in wherever he is. Yeah, he does

(01:35:10):
it all via his studio, and she's in Chicago and
they all work together and make up these songs and
then they travel and meet up with each other and
then they do the tour. So yeah, for for all technology.

Speaker 2 (01:35:25):
Andrew does he explain all this during the concert? Does
he talk quite a lot?

Speaker 10 (01:35:30):
He does?

Speaker 18 (01:35:31):
You certainly get your money's with but you know this
this is I mean, I I learned all this last night.
What he had to tell me.

Speaker 3 (01:35:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 18 (01:35:42):
Yeah, he picks on a few in the crowd, and of.

Speaker 2 (01:35:44):
Course he does. What's his encore song? What's he come
back for? What's the one at the end?

Speaker 3 (01:35:47):
Is it?

Speaker 2 (01:35:48):
Is it Santa Claus? Where's my Bike?

Speaker 3 (01:35:50):
Yeah?

Speaker 18 (01:35:50):
Well that's that's the one that you know if they
played that in the first couple of songs, who want
to go home after that?

Speaker 2 (01:35:56):
Yeah, that's what they're there for.

Speaker 3 (01:35:57):
Isn't it?

Speaker 4 (01:35:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 18 (01:35:58):
That was his encore. But you know, she came out
and took photos and told, you know, the gender talior lady.

Speaker 2 (01:36:06):
Are there any songs about it, modern topics, songs about
Trump or anything?

Speaker 3 (01:36:10):
Oh?

Speaker 18 (01:36:11):
Absolutely, yeah. That was the main popic earlier on in
the set. But even remember between her and they, she
had a signing and people were queuing out the door
to get her signature.

Speaker 3 (01:36:24):
And then.

Speaker 18 (01:36:26):
And then there's the what do you call that stuff?
The T shirts and.

Speaker 2 (01:36:30):
That it's called the merch the merchandise.

Speaker 18 (01:36:35):
Yeah, I'll tell you what. There was no orge of
people buying that stuff in the T shirts and what
he hats, so that that blew me away. But anyway,
my best thing I ever saw was Dame isn't there?

Speaker 2 (01:36:50):
Oh you fantastic?

Speaker 18 (01:36:53):
And an old bird that she's with, you know.

Speaker 2 (01:36:55):
Missus, missus Marge Madge soap for with or something? Is
that right, Madge Little?

Speaker 18 (01:37:03):
You know, some good stage shows, but certainly last night
was night. And then yeah, I think we've got the
following that he has. It's amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:37:16):
Yeah, well yeah, and I guess that's the boomers for
you got a bit of money like it because it's
not PC and probably quite enjoy it.

Speaker 18 (01:37:25):
Well, you don't get it.

Speaker 4 (01:37:26):
These days.

Speaker 18 (01:37:26):
You know, like some of the jokes I tell I'll
walk away from the punchline thing. I shouldn't have said that.

Speaker 2 (01:37:36):
Yeah, who are you telling these jokes.

Speaker 18 (01:37:39):
To twelve year olds?

Speaker 2 (01:37:42):
Brilliant Andrew, thank you twenty two. I've enjoyed you. Twenty
two to eleven. Someone said ordinance and ordinance. I don't
know they did sween those two words, Marcus, Are you
aware there's a song called Winchester Cathedral by the New
Vaudeville Band nineteen sixty six? No, I'm not, Marcus. Have
you seen the new hybrid trains in England? Diesel and batteries?

(01:38:03):
They use batteries just before going to stay and for
a mile after leaving, then run back on diesel for
the journey. They are going to replace electric trains over time. Apparently.
Ninety sev we won at Temblu College. We had one
teacher who loved caning boys. He once lined up twenty
kids in the hallway and gave him the cane one
after another for reminer in fractions. Looking back, the guy

(01:38:25):
had issues, certainly did. My husband built a house for
a client called Natella. I had to find out after
he had finished her name was Natalia funny thing is
she sent us a gift basket with goodies, including a
jar of Natella. Wow, it's a funny. Text is a
lot too unpicked from that, Marcus, I'm a made So

(01:38:46):
many people say me and my friend, etc. Instead of
my friend and I and thing and think, yes, that's
not quite we're on about. We're not judgmental of people
when we're onto the words that you yourself have always
got wrong and never realized that we're about tonight. But

(01:39:07):
get in touch. My name is Marcus. Welcome here'll twelve
eight hundred eighty, ten eighty and nine to nine two
to text twenty one away from eleven. Oh, welcome people.
All the lines are free. How are you nineteen to eleven?
I hope it's good where you are in your neck
of the woods. If you've got breaking news to store

(01:39:28):
that is a strong windy weather comes up the country,
I'll do a bit of a search on end TA
about the websites what's happening if you've got the updates
on the with the weather. Also, woud be good to
hear you if you want to talk about something on
air too, that would be ideal. No dramas. Don't go
out of your way, but if you do want to
come through, let me just check on the roads. Also
powers out in christ Church. Sorry and Ken Toby, we're
aware of that. Just all have updates that you know

(01:39:51):
when it comes back on. If there's any updates about
if it's going to be overnight, we'll let you know.
The highways, here's what i've got. Oh this, it seems
like it's compounding. Actually stay Toway true to silver Stream
to far Kartiki Street that's closed because of roadworks. The

(01:40:16):
lim Attucka Hill Road is closed from Kartoki to Featherstone.
That's because of high winds. And I think it looks
like it's gonna be closed overnight. So no joy there.
And that's what I've got for the Milford Sound Road
closed because of snow. And that's what I've got as

(01:40:38):
far as weather affected stuff for tonight. YEP, it's hard
to work on this website. What's weather related, what's what's
just roadworks? But oh, by the way too, when they
talked about roads that close, and that first quarter about
roads that closed to Willy Nilly, they've always closed the
Desert road by a chance. That's for snow Marcus. My

(01:41:02):
husband often says his calf muscles are feeling taunt. I
asked him, who's been teasing his legs? Of course he
means taut, but somehow he always managed to slip the
inn and the oblivious of the mistake. It's a good one, actually,
taunt carbs. We are looking at those words you've never
really understood and or anything goes tonight. This time I've

(01:41:24):
lost the I've lost the wilder steering on any one topic. Actually,
Robert Redford's great films, you might want to reminisce on
some of those. I imagine a lot of you for
a lot of you probably, Butch Cassidy in the Sun
Dance Kid was the first film you ever saw. I
would have thought, am I right about that? Because that's

(01:41:46):
from the age when it was around, so I'm sure
to be a lot of people. It was such a
popular movie also, so that would be my understanding of that.
So do get in touch and feel free if you
want to it something else tonight to I'm not too
faust about what it is, but yeah, it to be
hearing from you, come on or anything else you want

(01:42:07):
to talk about tonight, whatever that may be. Oh, taunt
Marcus t many years ago, my ten years son's teacher
rung to say he'd been using bad language, so she
put soap in his mouth. So I went straight downtown
towards school to other mothers were upset for the same reason.

(01:42:28):
All three of us had different reactions. Of mine was well,
that's the rule at school. One mother was re upset
as they never touched the children's punishment. The third mother
was ready to do the same to the teacher. Wow. Oh,
now I'm taunting him and he's feeling a bit taut.
Thank you, Marcus. It's blowing a real gale here in Upperhart.

(01:42:50):
No one of them attuckas are closed. One hundred and
forty one k's which is a strong wind. Your trampolines
off the property at one thirty, so it's stronger than
trampoline lifting if you had a curtainsider. So yeah, if
you've got weather updates for us to it would be
nice to hear from you. Kre you tramp I'll welcome people.

(01:43:10):
It's twelve from eleven. If there's something different you want
to mention and talk about tonight, then that's good. We've
got a bit of a lull on the calls and
that's cool. You always get a lull sometime in the night.
But if we give it a bit of a jiggle along,
jiggle along, it wouldn't be a bad thing for me.
I could tell you about my day. It was pretty exciting. Actually,
what did I do today? Oh no, I can tell
you why today, But that's that's a story for another time.

(01:43:33):
I think, yes, I should have taunted you like that.
It's a very full day. Put that in the book.
But you get in touch. You on to talk eleven
away from eleven o'clock at tim peverige along from twelve
o'clock to night. Marcus, someone I know, always said news

(01:43:53):
to instead of used to drives me crazy. Anna just
watching Dark Wind on Netflix. Robert Redford is in season three,
last movie for him. If you liked Longmire or Justified,
you'll enjoy it. I don't know either of those is.
I walked watch through the list of the Robert Redford
movies and they went and he had seen and all

(01:44:13):
of them I wanted to see. I'd seen pots Cast,
and I had seen All the Presidents Mean, which was
extremely good film, and maybe one or two others, but
I can't remember. Ten from eleven Perry. This is Marcus.
Welcome noh a, Marcus good Perry.

Speaker 21 (01:44:30):
I just thought i'd give you an update. I was
sitting on the I've been over the I was in
Wellington today, man or come back down from up north
and got stuck at the base of the hill at
about four o'clock. Yeah, and yeah, just come over, mate,
just got back to just come into the warraffa.

Speaker 2 (01:44:47):
So they've opened it, have they?

Speaker 3 (01:44:49):
No?

Speaker 21 (01:44:49):
No, I'm sort of in the industry, mate, so i
had a bit of inside knowledge and my vehicles are Yeah.
So I just talked to one of the boys and
he gave me the heads up. They've come over and
knew she's browing its ass off. Mean, it's about I
think they had a reading of about one fifty seven
up top. Yeah, and the main main freak, main freak

(01:45:10):
truck stuck on the hill still because the driver, the
original driver got a little bit freaked out, I think.
So they were trying to find another driver to try
and move the truck because the trailer was smashed into
the was across the road.

Speaker 4 (01:45:22):
Yeah, but yeah, and then.

Speaker 21 (01:45:26):
Down into feeddie. She was pretty wild down there, mate,
But just got the great town, Marcus. And it's beautiful, mate,
just shown.

Speaker 2 (01:45:33):
So what's it Are you involved in roading? Are you
involved in that sort of industry period? Because I didn't
used to close it, did they? But Ima sure they've
got more information now, would that be right? That they've
got wood speed things up there and they know when
it's dangerous.

Speaker 21 (01:45:45):
It's pretty crazy up there today, Marcus. I've lived in
the Warrior for a long time, but you know, I travel,
I sort of work Australia here, just here there and
everywhere men. And I've done a lot of heap of
trips over that hill mate. And I've actually I was
behind a little car one day and the wind just
picked it up, spun it straight round in front of me, mate,
just like it was. It was amazing. This year we've

(01:46:07):
been pretty lucky markets because the weather has been good.
So I think that's probably the first time this year,
because usually you have a couple of snows and you know,
every winter and it'll get closed twice, two or three times.
But I think this will be the first closure this year,
I think, mate, I'm not wrong. I'm not too sure.

Speaker 2 (01:46:23):
Yeah, I think there was one about a month ago
because I'm only I'm here at night, so I remember
them because I tell people about them. But I imagine too
that with that wind up there, it's hard to fix,
isn't it, Because you put a barrier and the wind's
going to come around that, so wasn't it sort of
it's a hard fix.

Speaker 21 (01:46:36):
Yeah, when they did. You know, if you've been, if
you know the hell at all, you get to the
top and you come down. If you're going towards Wellington,
you come down where I've done taken that corner out,
and I've done it on my bikes a couple of times.
It's like a funnel there and you go through there,
you know, on a windy day it's a shocker, mate.
But yeah, tonight, like I came over behind the guy
with a sweeper truck. He escorted me over and good dude,

(01:47:01):
men and he was there's quite a few rocks coming
down at the time, so he was sweeping the road
as we came over. We've got only two vehicles on
the road, the main freight trucks still stuck on the
Pediston side. He's still his eye, he's still taking up
one lane. He's got one lane open now though, will.

Speaker 2 (01:47:19):
They wait till the when stops to move that truck.

Speaker 21 (01:47:22):
Yeah, it's a curtain side of mate, So there's no
way that they probably want to move that anywhere closer
to the top of the hill man, because she's like
I say, it'd be a lot of.

Speaker 2 (01:47:30):
Risk even you know, is this stuff in it or
was empty?

Speaker 21 (01:47:34):
I'm not too sure, bunny, I'm not too short. I'll
tell you this, this are of the night, it would
be you know, say, it'd beg gear, isn't it?

Speaker 3 (01:47:39):
Yep?

Speaker 2 (01:47:40):
And you see the hundred did you say one hundred
and fifty seven k's.

Speaker 21 (01:47:44):
Yeah, the guy in the sweeping truck, Grant was telling
me it was one hundred and they had a reading
of one hundred and fifty seven up top, which would
make sense because if you hit a reading from what
did you say? One hundred and forty and half a heart? Yeah,
And I work and you know my job, I'm working
on mountains all the time.

Speaker 9 (01:48:00):
Mate.

Speaker 21 (01:48:00):
No, no, a good wind and she's a pretty yeah. Yeah,
she was pretty savage up there because.

Speaker 2 (01:48:07):
Because living in Bluff we get strong winds and that
we've lost trampolines. But one one hundred and thirty k's
your trampoline's gone. So that's a lot about that, isn't it.
One fifty seven?

Speaker 3 (01:48:16):
Yeah, it is.

Speaker 5 (01:48:17):
Marcus.

Speaker 21 (01:48:17):
I work on towers, Marcus on the rigger and I
work on towers in Australia, New Zealand and as you
would know, like Cow Cow Warranty, most broadcast towers, Mate,
you want to get on top of those when you've
got got a good wind.

Speaker 4 (01:48:30):
You know.

Speaker 21 (01:48:30):
It's it's just yeah, it's amazing, mate. So it was there,
but it's it's it's funny men, because you know what
Featherston's like. She was howling down the Featherston Straight in
quite heavy rain and it's got the great town. There's
not a breath of wind to mate, and it's just
a little.

Speaker 3 (01:48:47):
Bit of rain, you know. Wow.

Speaker 21 (01:48:49):
But everyone, it was funny on the road because I
was there from four and there was oh you know,
there was hundreds of cars make and then as the
night went on, and then the gods boys because they
kept giving us updates and I read the first update
was oh you know that that we don't know won't
probably won't be open till you know, in the morning.
And then they come back and one guy said, oh,

(01:49:10):
we might be able to move the truck, so be
a couple of hours. And then another guy come up
later on and just said, no, mate, she's going to
be closed till tomorrow morning because the wind was pretty savage.
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:49:21):
So have they got good screen? Are there screens that
inform people? Is it just someone wandering around telling them always?

Speaker 21 (01:49:27):
The boys are in the trucks there and they're awesome
made they're keeping everyone informed. There's a screen, there's a
trailer screen there. And as you're coming in to Featherston,
there's a big screen there that's permanent, one that tells
you what's going on on the hill all the time. Okay,
and there's one there's one just out of the hut
two years you come past the celtech said room attack

(01:49:47):
of there. Yep, yeah, that's there's a screen just see
two markets that tells you if the if the road's
open or closed. I was considering going back because you know,
until I talked to one of the boys and he said,
look I can't. I'll take you over these my vehicles
equipped with flashing lights and all that. Years so they
said didn't escort me home, which was pretty lucky burly.

(01:50:10):
Otherwise I would have been back down through thru I
would have gone there to terror wasn't given that one ago,
but you got to you got to have your head
in the game for that road near Marcus, you would
have been through there.

Speaker 2 (01:50:19):
Yep. Yeah, it's a tremendous update, Perry, thanks for that.
That was a great update, Very fulsome. I appreciate that. Hello,
Junie's Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 16 (01:50:27):
I'm Marcus. I'm ringing for that and fuss than the last.
It's just been very fever twinned. It's always worse when
it's start because what's going on. Yeah, it's you know,
it's been like it all day, but it eased off

(01:50:48):
for a while, but it's come back again, so I
would say it's probably coming from the room attackers.

Speaker 2 (01:50:55):
Yeah, any damage, any trees blowing around, anything like.

Speaker 16 (01:50:58):
That, Well, I can't see anything, you know, but it's
it's the pasign has gone up a couple of times today,
but I don't know what that was a maid of,
but it's really bad out there at the moment.

Speaker 2 (01:51:12):
Okay, appreciate the appreciate the update, Jane, thank you words.
I always thought the weather warnings were for rogues snowfall
warnings when I started working in TV newsroom, I learned
it was for roads snowfall warnings. Uhh uhhh hitdle twelve.
Welcome on him? Is Marcus Good Evening eight hundred and
eighty ten eighty nine to nine to text you want

(01:51:35):
to come through anything else, We're up for it. Talk
about the weather, strong wines, very strong ones that's happening,
and also words and also yeah, the closing of roads.
But if you talk to that guy, I think gold
Fallon might have been a bit a bit negative nearly

(01:51:57):
talking about we closed the roads to often sound like
it's extremely strong ones. But good on them, s as
chance good. I'm watching Trump Chopper. It's getting blowing around.

Speaker 3 (01:52:08):
Man.

Speaker 2 (01:52:09):
The weather looks terrible. It's that mess of one with
the two props would be. I don't know some of
you will know it. But the camera just come into
it's coming down to Windsor Castle now. But it was
just getting threshed. It's settled down now. It looks like
it's going to be a safe journey, but cheap as that.
Did you see that? Dan? Yeah? Wow, what a fantastic

(01:52:32):
looking thing that is. I don't know if that says
or I don't know who's it could be the Bretz
don't don't they don't they have another one that goes
with them, don't they fly one across an e force
one that is the chopper. There's two choppers in the
ar now it's quite a plava. So I'll narrate this
for you. You said, I don't why they've gone backup to
another to do it be two choppers coming in? Actually so, yes,

(01:52:56):
he's choppering there. Now that's a situation to Windsor Castle.
It looks like a terrible day. It's been raining all day.
They've been seeing that coverage which it was about to
make the king. What will they talk about? Who knows?
Eight past eleven. I'm here till the end my eyes.

(01:53:17):
You win that guy about the alrhym attack of Hell
you a lot.

Speaker 3 (01:53:19):
Didn't they?

Speaker 2 (01:53:19):
That was good. I'll get the texts before too long.
Worlds you've always thought meant something different than what they
meant to. We're about tonight and do we close roads
more more often than we should? Clearly not listening to
Perry one hundred and fifty seven K's there's a truck

(01:53:42):
into the side of the wall there and the driver
doesn't want to drive it out yea where you wouldn't
proa be worried about his job, Minu. Truck drivers are safe,
aren't they. There's plenty of work for truck drivers. I
can't get enough of them. I don't know why they're
going to a different chopper. Was that other one? I
don't know why there's two choppers? What are the commentators saying?

(01:54:04):
That's fors one there? What's the other one?

Speaker 3 (01:54:06):
The end of that.

Speaker 2 (01:54:10):
Might have been Marine one or something like that. So
they had the massive one and now there's the one
that I think is air Force one that's coming in
but terrible gray all day. We'll see how he's walking. Marcus.
Weather report from Dobson West Coast, very wet and very windy.
The road to cook A Tahe to Coffetdany has closed

(01:54:32):
due to flooding. You have a lovely night, Marcus. We
enjoy listening to every night. Lovely to know that I've
got people there listening. What a place, eh, Marcus. Could
I used to sing Sam and Janet evening drove my
sister managines it was summon chatted at evening. Dummy. Someone

(01:54:56):
always says news to instead of used to drives me crazy. Yes,
you gotta be careful with misheard song lyrics, because that's
the boy. That's a topic that just doesn't stop. It's
also a topic I don't believe. I think with misheard
song lyrics, people just invent ones that they think but
then make out they misheard them. But actually it's, as

(01:55:16):
I say, an affectation. Just watching trump Land, all the
beefeaters are there, probably one hundred of them in the
rain choppers coming down now. I'm only commentating this because
there's not much else. There's no one to talk to
coming down. There's another cop helicopter flying. Kind of seems
like there's an extraordinary amount of protection there. But yes,

(01:55:39):
the other chopper got really thrown around. It's a very
boring BBC show tonight. Not much happening at all, So
want to see how he's walking anyway, twelve paste. If
you want to be on here tonight, you might have
something random you want to talk about. That's fine as

(01:55:59):
small talk about getting caned at school if you got
anything interesting to say about that. Also, but he's been
in touch. If you want to eight hundred and nine detext, well,
don't just drive them there. I suppose it's a security
risk driving them through London flying and then chop. It's

(01:56:19):
probably the easiest. You just look like real bad conditions. Hi, Kevin,
this is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 10 (01:56:28):
Yeah, you have to said you're narrative about Trump getting down.
Yeah it's good. Hey, I'm calling from Wakefield.

Speaker 3 (01:56:38):
Just get on.

Speaker 10 (01:56:40):
And it is did calm. Not a breath of one in,
just a little spit of rain on the right hand.

Speaker 2 (01:56:46):
Wow, you guys have coppted this year, haven't you the
first time it hasn't rained or blow one?

Speaker 10 (01:56:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 20 (01:56:52):

Speaker 2 (01:57:07):
You had a good day today, Kevin, Yeah, pretty.

Speaker 10 (01:57:10):
Good, just walking around in the sunshine, just enjoying the day. Yeah,
it's been quite nice today. Actually it's been a bit
of looks like it modeled, rained and it cleared and
you know, the cloud went away. But there's nothing to
write home, but bit nice to hear from you.

Speaker 2 (01:57:24):
Thank you, bets. It's Marcus.

Speaker 9 (01:57:26):
Good evening, Oh, good evening, Marcus. How are you good?

Speaker 2 (01:57:29):
Take you bets.

Speaker 9 (01:57:30):
That's the story. A big thanks to Pierri for the
update on the hill. I travel at Hill most nights,
and you know, I was a bit like the other Blake,
just a bit of when you'll be all right mate,
we'll get over there. But he's explained that well.

Speaker 2 (01:57:41):
Mate, Yeah, you certainly once you see that, you think,
hang on, they're not being overly cautious there. It sounds
like nightmare up there.

Speaker 9 (01:57:48):
Oh shivery. I had to go right around the outside
and I had to come from Parmis and north and
go back down. So I'm doing a full over the
hill tonight.

Speaker 3 (01:57:55):
He said.

Speaker 2 (01:57:56):
He said to me, do I know the ecker terror
as I see? Yes, but I had to look it up.
That's just that's not another way to go across. That's
just a road to get up to the State Highway
one up to.

Speaker 9 (01:58:06):
Yeah, yeah it is. I've taken that road before a
couple of times initiative bit herey scary through there sometimes too.

Speaker 2 (01:58:12):
That's up by Steglan. So we're so, when did you
find out that it was closed?

Speaker 9 (01:58:16):
We were it was pretty much on the way down
to Wellington to pick up the papers, and yeah, they
said it was closed, so we just had to organize
the clamb. So I'll get someone them Parmi to meet
up with me and they'll go up to Nap and
I'll turn back the other way and he'd back down
to Pheeders and Martinbury area.

Speaker 2 (01:58:34):
Okay, so your job is delivering the evening post.

Speaker 3 (01:58:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:58:38):
Yeah, Oh so you don't live in Wellington, No.

Speaker 9 (01:58:41):
I'm from Parmi, so I traveled down most nights.

Speaker 2 (01:58:44):
So you can. So you come down to Wellington and
then you pick them up and you normally go over
the limb attackers because you're going to.

Speaker 9 (01:58:51):
Na Is that right, that's correct?

Speaker 3 (01:58:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (01:58:53):
Yeah, okay, yeah, so yeah, that was pretty hairy scary
on the way down too. The old trucks were squeezing
me up on the motorway. The wind blew it and
sort of put me near up against the rail.

Speaker 2 (01:59:04):
Were whereabouts? Was that?

Speaker 9 (01:59:08):
That's on the motorway down to Wellington? Okay, just so
that's just just the big wooden gats and there they
any accident, no accidents. I haven't seen the thing so far.
The interesting when I get over the other side there
through overpay your to Away and down through your calhoona
and that pretty strong wins through there too.

Speaker 2 (01:59:28):
So what's the other what were you going to meet
up at Palms and Arthon?

Speaker 3 (01:59:30):
Do want?

Speaker 9 (01:59:32):
When I get to Thomas North, we swap over with
another driver, so it's all look like an immensey driver.
He'll he'll, he'll head up and head to Nate. You okay,
because I can't I can't make the ground up going
all the way down there.

Speaker 2 (01:59:43):
You haven't got enough time to just you will go
down and do a do in the wide l apper
and then he'll go all the way to hawks By.
That's well explained.

Speaker 9 (01:59:50):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's just so we keep the customers happy.

Speaker 2 (01:59:53):
Yeah, yep, nope, good on your bets. I appreciate you
coming through with that. We feel we've got everyone that's
doing everything there. So we're spoken to the council. Can
they were spoken to, Bets. We spoke to the road worker.
That's brilliant, and do get in touch. You've got anything
to add Tonight we talk about the weather, and we
talk about you've always thought had a different meaning for
what they actually have and anything else. By the way
Trump has landed, I've got that on the BBC. There

(02:00:15):
is a post on YouTube of the helicopter unloading from
the Air Force plane. Thank you, I appreciate that. Do
get in touch if you want to. Sixteen past eleven,
anything goes for this final hour. Air Force one has landed.
Outcomes a soldier with the white cap. What amazing looking

(02:00:37):
plane that is not as big as the other one
that came through first. I think that was the UK one.
Someone standing waiting to come down the stairs. I'm just
seeing who that is. Someone coming out the back door.

Speaker 3 (02:00:48):
Now.

Speaker 2 (02:00:49):
If it's Trump, he hasn't got as red tie normally
has two soldiers each side. I think this is Trump
coming now one if you hold the umbrella for Milaney.
That's not as strong suit, is it. No? No, I
don't know who that is already detail I would think, yeah,

(02:01:11):
I might be coming at the back. Someone's going on.
William and Kate are going on. Kate in Burgundy with
a burgundy hat. There's Trump coming down the stairs now,
saluting to William. William shakes the hand. Trump gives him
the shoulder tap shaking Kate's hand. Is Milannie with a

(02:01:34):
giant hat? Brilliant? Anyway, that's enough of that. Seventeen past eleven,
looking forward to your calls, Ah, you want to get
on the bbcaid, it's all happening with the royals. Camilla
is there, she's a sinus scientist. They're all standing outside.
Milanney was looking sort of lost on her own. So
Kate's gone across and broke with the conversation. She'll be

(02:01:54):
the king of small talk. Then Kmilla's come across. Also.
Camilla is in blue, Kate's and burgundy. Millannia is in
black with a purple hat. Audrey hepburned tight hat. I
think you call those ones, and much talking overseas. He
works walked slowly. Old Trump look like he struggled with it.
But there we go. There's some talking to some other couple.
I don't know who they are, but that's sort of

(02:02:14):
the British politics where you've never got any idea with
all that ar canery. He come the horses. Oh, they've
brought along a carriage. They're puttasse. They've put on an
all for Trump. There's six horses pulling a carriage. Looks
like Cinderella, six giant horses all tied together. They brought

(02:02:35):
along an extremely ornate, black and golden carriage that might
be called a carriage. Don't crect me on horsey terms.
Boy oh boy, they've gone a fancy that going from
a helicop, going from a plane to a helicopter, a
horse and carriage. It's like an episode of the Amazing Race.

(02:02:55):
Don't if I get all six in the carriage and
the whole horses, there's about three carriages. I've never seen
such a sh I'll be loving this goodness be beside himself.
And they probably know that doing this will actually get
the tariffs reduced. To know that they're smart. They'll know this.

(02:03:16):
They know we'll do this. We get this right. And
he's so easily flattered. The tariffs are coming off, guarantee it.
What's the commentat of saying, Dan, what do you chart
you off? To listeners? Anyway? Do come through if you
want to talk? Twenty one past leave? I need your
cause tonight. If you want to talk. It's to be
a funny, old wet night, hasn't it. But that's all right.

(02:03:40):
I will persevere with the talk bag we want to
bring through and talk to you. I mean we've come
back to talk about the weather. I thought I had
good topics. Love, that's all right. Each day you reset
and you go again the next day and Robert Redford
is there goes the carriages. Who's in the first one?
I think it might just be Charles and Trump. The
next one's probably got Camilla and Kate and Milania. It's

(02:04:04):
quite a performance going well so far though. Oh no,
it's just it's just Camilla and Malania together in one.
Is that many horses? You wouldn't believe it. Now, Enna,
it's Marcus. Welcome and good evening.

Speaker 22 (02:04:21):
Oh hi, Marcus.

Speaker 13 (02:04:23):
Hey.

Speaker 22 (02:04:23):
I was just listening this afternoon about people talking about
trucks and driving behavior on the roads at topic D Yeah,
and I just I was on the way to work,
so I didn't have time to call, but I this
guy came on and he was saying, in the UK,
you know, everyone's really good at sitting in the left

(02:04:45):
hand lane. And actually I was just looking at the
road cost this really good road coast thing that comes
across on social media and you can like test yourself
and stuff, and actually we are meed to sit in
the left lane unleas both lanes blocked, and then you
can both sit in the right lane like and rush

(02:05:05):
our traffic. But he went on to say that the
trucks in the UK all sit on the left hand lane,
and he doesn't think they should be in the right
hand lane. And I'm very much in agreement with that
because I commute from Auckland down to the Central Plateau
and so I do a lot of driving down State

(02:05:28):
Highway one and then off at one see through yourrom
Ere down there, and onto Constituity and down State Highway four.
And I often travel at night. So there's a lot
of trucks on the road as well. And some of
the passing behavior, like the truck is are really good drivers,

(02:05:48):
but some of the passing behavior is quite bad.

Speaker 2 (02:05:54):
Yeah, yeah, because some trucks are governed to just got
ninety k's, aren't they.

Speaker 22 (02:06:01):
And when you're in a passing lane you do need
to go more one hundred k that we're never going
to get past they.

Speaker 2 (02:06:08):
So you saying, are you saying that? Are you saying
truck should never be able to pass?

Speaker 17 (02:06:13):
Oh?

Speaker 22 (02:06:13):
I think that they should be able to pass, But
I think track passing track when there's other cars on
the road waiting to get pasted in a passing lane,
especially on a highway where there's not very many passing lane.

Speaker 8 (02:06:30):
Okay, I really think the cars should have some right of.

Speaker 22 (02:06:33):
Way to do that because it can get very dangerous.

Speaker 2 (02:06:40):
Do you drive? Do you drive every You don't drive
every You drive weekly? Do you?

Speaker 10 (02:06:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 22 (02:06:46):
About every week? So I'll work three days and then
I'll drive down to the secret setto for four days
and then drive back. And yeah, I recently, like last week,
I because I've got quite a new Subaru and it
sometimes looking to look at its own lights off high beam.

(02:07:08):
But if the the Cara truck is not approaching on
a certain angle, it might not flick its own lights off.
And my lights were on Hybee when I went to
fleck the WAF and the truck lasted me with his
light and it really was you know, it's really quite
difficult to deal with because you get a little bit

(02:07:29):
of blindness after that. Sure, So, I whilst generally they
quite well behaved, I'm just not that oppressed with some
of the trucking behavior.

Speaker 2 (02:07:42):
I've always thought, I've always saw the truck truck drivers,
I've always saw a lot of the other drivers. Question
or the truck drivers always drive fantastically.

Speaker 22 (02:07:51):
Yeah, it's not the experience that I've had, particularly as
pass the lanes and even going down the Southern Motorway
when you've got trucks just at both left and right lane,
and even sometimes they weren't even all across the slow
lay going up the po and I just think that's okay.

Speaker 2 (02:08:13):
Yeah, okay, Well, well maybe we see what some of
them they've got to say to UNTSI Roders, I appreciate
you coming through. Thank you. No one else got anything?
Do they want to react to it? Particularly some of
the truck drivers. I've never heard all the times on talk,
I've never heard anone complain about truck drivers.

Speaker 3 (02:08:26):
Wan.

Speaker 2 (02:08:27):
I've always heard people complain about truck driers complain about
other drivers that sort of like the tables have turned
there by the way. The cavalcade of all there must
be one hundred horses. It's extraordinary, this thing. It's more
pomped than we saw at the queen's funeral from where
I'm sitting with the soul. And this will all be
because of the tariffs. So we want to get rid
of them, and it will probably be successful because anything

(02:08:48):
that works, we know, the one thing that works for
Trump for real is flattery. I'll tell you what this
this parade for Trump with the cavalcade of Trump's extraordined.
He'll be He'll be seething that his own parade in
America was so poor, because tell me, what the Brits
are doing is extremely well. Get in touch on talk, Kevin.
It's Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 7 (02:09:07):
Yeah, hi markets, how are you good?

Speaker 2 (02:09:09):
Thank you? Kevin?

Speaker 7 (02:09:11):
Hey, I just you know, would you ask for someone
to talk about things? And someone's been on my mind
for quite a long time and for a number of
years now, and I've put my foot into the pool,
so to speak, is to encourage anybody who's thinking about
buying cryptocurrency to make a move in particular, and bitcoin

(02:09:34):
as the it should go up in time even further.
It's yeah, it's really interesting, and.

Speaker 10 (02:09:42):
I know there's a lot of people thinking about it and.

Speaker 7 (02:09:44):
Don't necessarily, you know, have the courage maybe to make
the move. But I can say that it's it's a good,
good investment.

Speaker 2 (02:09:55):
Yes, up one hundred and superceed for the last year.

Speaker 7 (02:09:59):
Yes, it's I mean it's been going up constantly. I
mean he's always you know, some some beer markets where
it'll down a bit. But if you look at the
overall statistics for bitcoin, particularly since it's birth back in
I think two thousand and eight. If you look at
a chart for all time, it just looks like an
arrow pointing upwards.

Speaker 3 (02:10:20):
And yeah, the.

Speaker 7 (02:10:23):
Thing about it is that there'll only ever be twenty
one million bitcoin minted, so you can never dilute the
value of it, as apart from fair currency such as
the US dollar or the New Zealand dollar, y any
dollars of any government that is generated by the government,
they can print more and that to values the value

(02:10:45):
of that dollar, hence inflation, so you can only buy
less and less with.

Speaker 3 (02:10:49):
The same dollars.

Speaker 7 (02:10:51):
The good thing about in particular bitcoin is that because
there'll only ever be twenty one million minted, you can't
debase its value.

Speaker 2 (02:11:02):
Yes, yeah, I think I think people are across that concept.
They're still minting them out there. There's still a fear
few to be made out, is that right?

Speaker 7 (02:11:10):
Yes, Yes, there's still you know, more to be I
think they'll be continued to be meanted till about two
thousand year twenty one hundred or something in that scheme.

Speaker 18 (02:11:21):
But I just that just was on mine.

Speaker 3 (02:11:22):
Who do you know?

Speaker 2 (02:11:23):
I think? I think I think I think they're going
to stop into them a much sooner than that.

Speaker 7 (02:11:29):
No, because that's every four years they have a having.

Speaker 2 (02:11:33):
Yes, that's right, that the.

Speaker 7 (02:11:34):
Amount produced decreases.

Speaker 2 (02:11:37):
Oh, yes, so I apologize two forty which over ninety
nine point nine nine nine percent will have been done. Yeah,
that's right.

Speaker 7 (02:11:42):
Okay, Yeah, it's a good, good investment, you know if
if you want to, but it doesn't have to you know,
to bet the farm on it. Just a few hundred,
you know, a few thousand if you haven't have it,
and yeah, put it on there and what's you grow?
It's it's an interesting investment to sort of put it

(02:12:02):
out there when your listens and maybe.

Speaker 2 (02:12:04):
Given what's what's your theory when your cash yours in.

Speaker 7 (02:12:10):
Look to be honest, I don't know that I will.
I might well just pass them on to my kids.
Ever gets to the point that I'm retiring and I
need those extra funds, then you know, that could be
a time for use them if need be. But I
mean I haven't put you know, massive amounts, and I

(02:12:31):
don't have massive amounts to put in. But what I
am have put in has risen very admirably in the
last five six years and I just can see it
continuing to grow. And yeah, it's good to have that
knowing its value will increase. Now, I mean, no one
can ever guarantee that, but if you were to dig

(02:12:54):
into the.

Speaker 2 (02:12:56):
And I think a lot of people got burnt with
the you know, with the brokerages that we still have
seen them in the courts again today. That'll seem quite sketchy,
didn't it for a while the brokerages.

Speaker 7 (02:13:06):
Not quite sure what you're talking about there.

Speaker 2 (02:13:08):
Well, the people that bought bitcoin, you know what's it called,
and they went and they went broke and all the
bitcoin disappeared.

Speaker 7 (02:13:17):
Yeah, some people have lost their their keys to their
bitcoin wallets.

Speaker 2 (02:13:22):
Well, no, they didn't lose the keys. I think it
was more about the what was it the agencies that
went broke?

Speaker 7 (02:13:30):
Oh, yes, yes there might. Yes, there was one agreed
one to I believe there were like exchanges.

Speaker 2 (02:13:39):
That yeah, exchanges, brokerages, exchanges was one called one was
called gok or something, wasn't it.

Speaker 7 (02:13:46):
Yes, I think you might be right. It's a while
ago now, I couldn't tell you from the top of
my head to be mountain. Yes, I think there was
an investment company that people had brought into But yes
there was. If you there's a saying in cryptocurrency, not
your keys, not your crypto. And then in that sense,

(02:14:06):
it's it's a fewer to buy cryptocurrency through a brokerage
as you caught it like a crypto exchange. Then you
are susceptible if something goes awry in that area. But
I mean personally, I bought a hardware wallet, which is
in my case Alleger.

Speaker 4 (02:14:24):
Hardware wallets.

Speaker 7 (02:14:25):
I actually have that and plug that and when I
want to buy or sell any of my cryptocurrency, and
once I've done the buying, I unplug it from my
device and then I'm it's in my pocket all, you know,
stashed away in a safe and no one can touch that,
and that can never be ripped off, that can never
be taken away and never be defrauded off. Yeah, so

(02:14:50):
there's that. That's why I personally do it through a
heart what's called a hard wallet.

Speaker 2 (02:14:55):
So are you are you buying and selling it?

Speaker 7 (02:14:59):
I know I've actually bought I have bought insult some
over time in the six years, you know, when when
I saw it peaking. And you can follow the charts
and look and you can add on overlays on for example,
coin market cap, and it'll show you that it's getting
hot or over water as they might call it, and

(02:15:20):
you think, well, okay, I should take some profit here,
and then do you sell some not all of it,
and then you know the time we find it goes
down over the next maybe couple of months, and then
it gets over sold as you can look on some charts.
But look things like bitcoin, I buy and I don't sell.
I'm not going to do that until then I really

(02:15:42):
need the money or i'm or I'll pass it on
to my kids because ones I bitcoin a bit like gold.
You know, only so much of a dag out of
the earth, and they can't create anymore. So that's where
it's value of gold just keeps rising over the years,
has its ups and downs, but ultimately it goes in
one line, and bitcoin is like digital gold. As you

(02:16:05):
probably heard the saying in any of you listeners may
have heard that.

Speaker 2 (02:16:10):
Nice to talk to you and thanks so much of that.
Twenty away from twelve, looking forward to your input. Hit
on midnight, Good evening, Karen, this is Marcus.

Speaker 13 (02:16:17):
Welcome by Marcus on our long time listeners this time calling.

Speaker 2 (02:16:22):
Oh well, thank you for calling.

Speaker 13 (02:16:25):
I actually drive the truck.

Speaker 11 (02:16:27):
I'm driving it right now.

Speaker 13 (02:16:31):
Some trucks are governed at eighty eight, so they can't
go faster than eighty eight, and that's why other trucks
can pass.

Speaker 2 (02:16:41):
Okay.

Speaker 13 (02:16:42):
And the other thing is it's not their driving you
should be worried about, it's their mouths.

Speaker 2 (02:16:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 13 (02:16:50):
A lot of them abuses over at.

Speaker 11 (02:16:56):
Really they freak out.

Speaker 13 (02:16:57):
They freak out when a female talks back.

Speaker 2 (02:17:00):
Wow, I thought it was all one happy family. So
they abuse each other.

Speaker 13 (02:17:05):
Oh yeah all time. I just got abused by by
another trap What was he driving? Main thread? I think?
But like, because I go slow, I go with for
us as my truck, and though I can only go
with us with that. But I happen to stop at
the wine Bees on the Tape road. Yeah, I should

(02:17:32):
stopped because I didn't want I want a collision on
that road because I know a lot of trucks falling
over there and gone into the lake. And he abused me.
And then when I said, you don't have to be
like that, and it went quiet.

Speaker 2 (02:17:47):
You should you should have started trouble.

Speaker 19 (02:17:49):
Five of them, Well, they do.

Speaker 13 (02:17:52):
They abuse you hate a lot of them, don't like
a few and the odd few will be willing to
let you follow them and teach you, and the others
will just abuse you.

Speaker 2 (02:18:07):
I wouldn't be on the I wouldn't be on the
RT if I was getting abuse.

Speaker 13 (02:18:13):
Sometimes I feel like splashing it.

Speaker 2 (02:18:16):
Hey, So if some are governor at eighty eight, then
the other trucks really are obliged to overtake them, aren't
they for sure?

Speaker 13 (02:18:23):
And a lot of us will let them pass, will
tell them that they can pass or anticate.

Speaker 2 (02:18:30):
So if you're on the RT, how do you know
who you're talking to? Does each I don't understand how
that works.

Speaker 11 (02:18:38):
They don't.

Speaker 13 (02:18:38):
They don't know who they're talking to. They just know
that that it's a truck driver. If I'm in front,
they'll yell at you.

Speaker 2 (02:18:48):
But you can say, but you can't talk generally. You
can't talk specifically. So just one truck, though, can you?

Speaker 13 (02:18:55):
I'm not everybody hears it training on one sequence like
channel eleven. Everybody's on channel eleven, and if one trparver
is a using the other, everyone around the area can
hear it.

Speaker 2 (02:19:10):
So how would truck drivers just overtaken you and they
want to abuse you? How will he know that? How
will you know that it's that that you're the one
they're talking that they're talking about. That's what I don't
quite get.

Speaker 13 (02:19:21):
Oh, because if you do something like like stop so
that you're not you're not going to hit another truck.
You'll know it too because you've stopped and the.

Speaker 11 (02:19:31):
Feller behind you goes.

Speaker 2 (02:19:33):
Okay, understand.

Speaker 13 (02:19:36):
But there's a lot of.

Speaker 11 (02:19:37):
A lot of abuse.

Speaker 13 (02:19:41):
Thick skin to be a female.

Speaker 2 (02:19:45):
How long? How long? It doesn't feel?

Speaker 13 (02:19:47):
Karen, I'm driving five years that I'm still learning.

Speaker 2 (02:19:53):
You enjoy it?

Speaker 3 (02:19:55):
Love it?

Speaker 13 (02:19:56):
Oh? Yeah, I love it. I absolutely love it. Most
most of the boys will will help you, or when
you pull over, they will tell you, hey, this way
is a better way to do it.

Speaker 3 (02:20:05):
Yep.

Speaker 13 (02:20:07):
So yeah, those are the best one.

Speaker 2 (02:20:10):
Were you heading tonight, Karen, I'm.

Speaker 13 (02:20:13):
Just petting too, Chelpo and the nun and swap the
trailer and soon around.

Speaker 2 (02:20:18):
And go back to Oh okay, ok, you've got the
desert road each night.

Speaker 13 (02:20:23):
Yes, the thing is I knowly a relief drivers as
well as those I am jumps on track to track
to truck, Yeah, fully to fully you know.

Speaker 2 (02:20:35):
Well, look, thank you for calling and lovely to hear
from your Karen. You take care out there. Thank you
Almost time for me to go people. Mark is pretty obscure.
I've always said all goes well, when I was always
meaning Auger is well, oh yeah, that's a good point.
Mark's the one who was criticizing truck drivers since she
had lights on high beam me. You didn't like it
when the truck driver beamed her, and they should be

(02:20:56):
in the lanes she wanted them. And I've always found
truck drives excellent and I like a good truck to
follow when driving at night. There we go, beskin hats
ay two and a half pounds each. That's almost time
for me to go. People back tomorrow night, as you
will know, and we'll talk to you then letting it out.

(02:21:21):
Also that Tim's along next. And yes, it was a
massive bit of pagetory for Trump. I'm glad I watched
that actually, because I wouldn't have thought it was interesting
this i'd watched. It was fascinating just how many people
there were. I've never seen such a performance for a
leader in England. I'm sure it's never been done before.

(02:21:41):
It was like someone returning from a major battle or something.
But there'll be method to it. If they get on
Trump's right side, he can certainly make the path lot
easy when it comes to tariffs, and I'm sure that's
in their mind, might be front and foremost, but I'll
be a thing. I'll catch again tomorrow. People from eight pm.
Enjoy your Thursday Watch the Wind good Night.
