Speaker 2 (00:24):
Hello my little beanies, and welcome to the bean for Tuesday.
First with yesterday's news, I am Glen Hart, and we're
looking back at Monday. We sort of the wash up
of sale GP so to speak, pre nuptials, pre naps,
with the prenaptural agreement that was a topic of discussion
yesterday as well, not as much as the old ramping
(00:47):
up of Eden Park Events consents though.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
You can't have a stadium sitting there doing nothing that
makes no sense at all, And if you've got a
motivated trust and a motivated CEO that wants to do
as much as they possibly can, and they have contorted
themselves trying to come up with different ways to make
use of the stadium. Art in the Park beautiful event,
(01:15):
not a traditional use for a sports stadium, but a
successful one. There are so many ways to use the stadium.
I accept that there will be much more disruption for
those who have bought there and for those who bought
when the rules were what they were. I can understand
why you'd be a bit grumpy Nick says ninety seven
(01:38):
percent of the communities on board, which is a pretty
good stat If that is so, you can't hold back
that kind of economic growth, that kind of success, that
kind of feel good atmosphere because three percent of the
neighborhood's grumpy doesn't want to share. I'd love to get
(02:00):
your thoughts on this. If your neighborhood has changed and
the rules have changed around you, can you understand the
concerns that a few of the residents might have. For
those who live in and around the area. Is it
going to be a win for you if you're a business,
(02:20):
if you're a resident, can you put up with it
for the sake of the wider good.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
It's sort of confused me over the years. Why you know,
given that they always talk about all this millions and
billions of dollars of benefit to the Aukland economy, it
would just surely it would just be a small amount
of that to just buy all the houses that's around
the area, wouldn't it, and then make that into I
don't know, a car park, that's stop train station. Whatever
(02:47):
news talk has it been Anyway, I think hither is
right under this as well. Man.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
She goes to a lot of concerts.
Speaker 5 (02:54):
We are a very big rugby league nation, and that game,
even if it kicks off at some ridiculous time like
nine p thirty or ten in the evening, will sell
out pretty quickly, which means I don't know how much
international money it's actually going to bring in, because surely
we're going to snap up the tickets ourselves before any
Aussies can get it. But it'll be an event and
if that gets New Zealand a step closer to being
considered as a serious place for a second team in
(03:16):
the comp that can't be a bad thing, can it.
The second announcement, though, I think is the one that's
actually bigger, and we get very fusy about the state
of Origin, but I think the rules around eden Park
are bigger because it's bigger than one single event. It's
longer term. It was always stupid that eden Park couldn't
host a sporting event on a Sunday, and that sports
events on a weekday had to be wrapped up by
nine point thirty, which would have absolutely put a big
(03:38):
no on the State of Origin game, which is played
on a Wednesday. It was stupid that eden Park could
only ever have twelve concerts a year, and that you
were only ever allowed to have six artists doing those
twelve concerts, and that any one month could only have
four concerts and no more than that. It's now twelve
big concerts, twenty medium sized concerts. Any day is okay
up to eight hours. Don't always need to keep consent
(03:59):
to say yes. I understand that there are residents to
be considered, and I am extremely grateful to so many
of them that they are so generous, But this was necessary.
We don't want Eden Park to be empty most days
of the week, just waiting for a ratepayer bailout like
the days of old. If we wanted to actually earn
its way, then this is the way to do it.
And this has not come a day too soon.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
So yeah, suck on that surrounding residents of that place
that you knew was a stadium when you bought your house. Anyway,
as we all keep saying, because I think it's been
there a very.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
Long time now, you's talk siban.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
There will be complaints though, and I think Marcus has
seen this coming.
Speaker 6 (04:38):
I thought I saw today that bad Bunny was announced
for Auckland.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Did you see that?
Speaker 6 (04:42):
And then I haven't heard them talking about Eden Park
for that yet, but yeah, maybe they haven't got the venue,
so I'm not quite sure what's happening there. But yeah,
you can talk about the artists that now they've got
more things to be there. Who you want to see there.
I'll probably try and get tickets to the State of Origin,
(05:04):
I suppose, although I think i'd rather see a State
of Origin in Australia. I know that sounds entitled, but
I think that's probably you want to be amongst seventy
thousand screaming Aussies, not ten thousand. I think that's what
makes it, isn't it. But oh yeah, it'll be a thing,
you know what people be complaining about. You know what,
(05:27):
The State of Origin will play in Auckland in twenty
twenty seven, and the first thing people will be complaining
about will be the inner city Railope, oh where were
the trains and trains went there? They couldn't get us
where we wanted to go, YadA YadA yah, say yep,
watch this space.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Well that's not really an eedn part complaint though, is
that it's more of a train complaint. And I think
by now we've all understood that anything to do with
trains doesn't work in this country, so I don't know
what the point of complaining about it is.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
But a lot of people will have to complain Musical City.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
So yeah, weird old business. The sale GP over the weekend,
it seems like lots of people I know were there.
Quite a few of them missed the big crash, though
they were busy, you know, doing more important things like
getting drinks.
Speaker 7 (06:19):
Everybody there on Saturday was pretty much as hype about
the near misses and the close calls as they were
about the results in the actual racing. And I think
that's just human nature. You can't look away from a
car crash, can you. It's the same reason UFC is
nipping at the heels of boxing and we've got run
it straight. You know, they're actually making money. People are
being paid now to run into each other for sport.
Speaker 4 (06:42):
We like the.
Speaker 7 (06:43):
Excitement of somebody possibly getting hurt or injured. I know
it's sick, but it's true, isn't it. Throw in the
fact that athletes take the risks, hopefully calculated ones, and
come out victorious and you have yourself an afternoon of entertainment.
There's skill and talent and technology involved, no doubt about it.
But you wouldn't turn up to watch a sale GP
boat race itself, would you. The question is where the
(07:05):
people would still be thrilled by this fleet format with
fewer boats justling for position, which is a move that
apparently was on the cards anyway. And if this is
the first of many safety improvements, how different would the
competition look and feel. Look at what happened to Rugby
Union when safety overtook entertainment. If you don't give people action,
they just go find it elsewhere. Now, don't get me wrong,
(07:28):
I'm not saying I want crashes galore and let's throw
caution to the wind and create the equivalent of bumper
cars on water. But it must surely be something that
the organizers will be thinking about and toying with. And
as for Burling, on the day, people were saying, oh,
did he push it too far? If he executed the
exact same race in one without crashing, nobody'd be complaining,
(07:50):
would they. But that's the thing about this competition. It's
fractions of technology, weather conditions that make a difference. There's
talk that has Rudder failed him? Was that driver induced
failure or just bad luck. No one wins playing safe
and people don't watch sport for safety features. But at
the same time, to win a race, you've got to
(08:12):
finish it, and that lesson more than any change to
the rules might be what slow's drivers like burling down
a touch in the future.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
So a friend of mine who was there said it
was like a funeral when they all came back, and
you know, when people were going off to hospital and
stuff like that, And I think, yes, that whole thing,
isn't it me?
Speaker 4 (08:31):
Something like that happens everybody.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
You know, it's quite exciting, and then everybody realized that
it's also quite terrible, and they all feel a bit
guilty for being a part of it, as you should
the sailing anyway, because it's a dumb sport news talks
it been. Let's finish up signing the prenup if you
wouldn't mind, just before we carry on any further, just
you know, just how we all know where we stand.
Speaker 7 (08:50):
So we're talking about pre nups.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
What do you know about the situation.
Speaker 7 (08:54):
What's your experience?
Speaker 8 (08:56):
Well, when I first met my now husband, we had
five children.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
Between wow and we probably had.
Speaker 8 (09:06):
And we had individual home, so we decided we do
a prenup while we were living together to make sure
that everything was okay. Five years later we got married
and now we've just done another prenup because the prenup
was done in Australia and wasn't recognized in New Zealand.
(09:29):
So we've done another prenup. And it's not because we
don't trust each other. It's because we have five children.
The kids could lay a claim on any of our properties.
But that's why we had to do the preenup again.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
So you don't trust the kids basically.
Speaker 8 (09:49):
Well, I trust my husband completely, the two of us.
We didn't have the kids, I wouldn't have done one again,
but the lawyer advised us because we had the kids
and he's living in my house that he's got his
own property as well. You know, if someone could come
(10:10):
in and claim like they could say, oh well dad
was living in your house, so if you die, we
could take claim something.
Speaker 4 (10:19):
Yeah, right, And is there others?
Speaker 7 (10:21):
So if you don't mind me asking the details, So
how many kids did each of you bring into the relationship.
Speaker 8 (10:27):
He brought to and I bought three.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Holy moully, this is a whole hawksby Hosking situation. Five kids. Jeepers, creepers,
come on people. That's I think that's why I could
never get married again, because, yeah, I've got two more
kids than I ever wanted. I eat two kids and
(10:50):
imagine having to have extras that you wouldn't even initially
response to that. Yeah, that to get the prenup, No
nut for me. I've got enough on my hands with
the NAP that I'm currently involved with. So I'm saying
NAP to naps. Uh, we'll see you. I don't know
(11:10):
what's happening anymore. It's been it's been a rough morning
technically for me. I'll see you again tomorrow.
