Speaker 1 (00:09):
You're listening to a podcast from news Talk said, b
follow this and our wide range of podcasts now on iHeartRadio.
Used Talk said, be you talk.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
It's all my beautiful beanies, and welcome to the bean
for Friday. First of yesterday's news. I am Glenn Hart,
and we are looking back at Thursday. Cancer is serious.
That there's nothing more serious. It's getting serious. Tyler manages
to hoover up some secondhand goods.

Speaker 3 (00:46):
He got the mop. His co host.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
Andrew Dickins wants a word about our long summer holidays.
And then we're going to play podcast roulent at the
end of the podcast with guess who Marcus before any
of that, So Trump protecting his border, Trump and Christy
Noham and all the rest of them, apparently even for
little old New Zealand, we're going to have to basically

(01:13):
prove that we've never said anything mean about him.

Speaker 4 (01:15):
If you believe everything that the liberal international media serves
up on a silver platter for you, and that this
is an issue invented by tyrants like Trump to retain
their grip on power, explain Starmer, the lovely lefty labor
leader of Great Britain. In case you missed it. Starmer
this week has signed a piece of paper asking Europe

(01:37):
to kindly redefine human rights because the current definition is
well a little too generous, thank you very much. Yes,
Labour's man at number ten wants to narrow human rights.
He wants to be able to kick more asylum seekers
out of Britain because the cost, the burden, the daily
arrivals of boats simply unsustainable and the British public had

(01:59):
enough of it ages ago. Enter Farage right. So this
is not a figment of a dictator's imagination, but a
genuine political problem. Back to Trump, He's cracking down at
the border friend or foe, and new rules are coming
for US key weeks and other visa way for countries.
These apply to terrorists. So a visit to Hawaii is

(02:22):
all it's going to take for you. In order to
gain entry, you will have to hand over five years
of your social media activity. It's Manda Tree by the way.
You're going to have to do this, this is their intention.
You'll need to supply your telephone numbers for every phone
number you've used in the past five years. Can you
even remember every email address that you have used for

(02:42):
the past decade. How many jobs have you had in
that time? How many work email addresses have you had
in that time?

Speaker 3 (02:48):
Can you remember them all? Now?

Speaker 4 (02:50):
I'm no terrorist, but this sounds like a lot, doesn't it.
So I probably won't be visiting America anytime soon. If
you had to go for a funeral, if you had
to go for an event something important, you would, But
to be honest, I'd probably, on balance just go to Mexico.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yeah, I mean this sounds like a great excuse to
never ever go America ever.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
Again, I can't see a lot of things.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
About it that appeal to me at the moment, so
and probably me saying this on this podcast has screened
my charges anyway?

Speaker 3 (03:23):
Is that what we've come to keep it on?

Speaker 2 (03:27):
Given us thunder White wouldn't want.

Speaker 3 (03:30):
To be there. News talk Ze been right. We're all
getting cancer.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
We're having it for longer because we survive longer with it.

Speaker 3 (03:42):
But that's bad news apparently.

Speaker 5 (03:44):
But they've also done a lot of work in the
field of many cancers and have found the cause and effect.
Smoking increases your risk of cancer, Obesity increases your risk
of cancer. Ignoring sun warnings increases your risk of cancer.
So we need to pay heed if we want to

(04:05):
make the changes you need to your lifestyle, improve your
chances of a healthy act of life. Don't get sick,
take advantage of the free buses that will take you
to the free screening, because early detection is the best prevention,
or don't and you'll pay the ultimate price. I mean

(04:28):
the headline. If you just simply looked at it, you
could form your own conclusion.

Speaker 3 (04:33):
You could.

Speaker 5 (04:35):
Absolutely go off onto an interpretive dance of your own misinformation,
your own prejudice, your own beliefs. Cancer diagnosis numbers set
to skyrocket by fifty percent of the next two decades.
In fact, beyond the headlines, there is so much good
news in there, and one of the key messages I

(04:58):
think that we need to take from it is the
fact that we have a little bit of control, an
agency over our own lives. That it is not inevitable
that we get cancer, we get sick, and we die.
There is much we can do to prevent it. Early
detection is the best prevention. The treatments are good provided

(05:21):
you go along and you get the screenings, and you
keep up to date with your health. You pay attention
to your body, and you think that you're worth it.
When we look at the numbers who are disproportionately affected
by cancer, you have to ask how many are helping themselves.

Speaker 3 (05:37):
I have a confession to make.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
I gave myself a dose of cancer yesterday and the beach.
It was one of those days where there was a
bit of a breeze blowing, so you weren't really aware
of the fact that even though I was sitting there
without a shirt on. I know this is a disturbing
mental image, but you.

Speaker 3 (06:01):
Just sort of didn't feel that hot.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
And now I've got a very sunburned back the shoulders.
I needed to lie on my back a bit more
because I'm still wise a sheet down the front. Stopped thinking,
all right, let's stop all this. You're thinking about me
topless and we can't have that. You've talk Tyler and

(06:25):
Matt's relationship on the Afternoon Show. It seems to be
going well. In fact, you know, because Tyler's sort of
a young and up and comer. Matt he's been around
for a long time and that means that when Matt
moves and the clutters, Tyler reaped the benefits.

Speaker 6 (06:45):
Now, mate, I've got to we thank you, to say
to you that you've been you've been upgrading a few things,
and you've moved into a house and you needed some
some new stuff to populate your living environment at the moment.
So that means I've actually, I've actually benefited quite a
lot from the situation there that I'm getting a few
nice things from you that you no longer have room for,

(07:07):
but they are stored perfectly good, perfectly amazing, and it
saved me a lot of money. So the first one
was the tent, the tenth fantastic, got it up the
other weekend. Everything's there, it's huge, it's going to go
down to treat over summer. But the one I've been
really excited by is the coffee machine. When you text
me that night and said, and it was a week
picture of the beautiful espresso coffee machine and say hey
do you want this? Hell, yeah, I want that, And

(07:30):
you dropped it off the next day. So I set
it up that night, and maybe it's pride of place
in the kitchen. Sits right next to we don't even
really need the kettle anymore, but SIT's next to the
kettle and loving it mate. Nothing better and just a
real coffee to sit out there, get bitten by the
mossies on a lovely morning in the sun. It's a
game change of mats.

Speaker 7 (07:47):
I thank you think I'm so pleased that you're getting
some use out of it. But when you say I
needed more space, what I actually did is replace that
smaller coffee machine with the delongy special Asta Opera, which
is a very complicated coffee machine.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
How is Tyler getting bitten by mosquitoes in the morning,
He needs to check for standing water. Hopefully they're not
coming out of the bottom of the coffee machine.

Speaker 3 (08:15):
Right. So the weather has been.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
It's corching, I think in most places around the country
of the last few days, which makes you wonder about
this call for us to have shorter summer holidays.

Speaker 3 (08:32):
It makes it sound about silly, doesn't it.

Speaker 8 (08:34):
We've got business owners and economists, simon bridges and talk
back callers all alleging that the country closes down for
the month and it kills our productivity. But you know,
there's absolutely no proof of that, and all these allegations
seem a little better than reckens. And let's remember the
rest of the Christian world are also off for Christmas
New Year, so we're not losing competitiveness over that week.
All we now, and of course remember the northern hemisphere

(08:56):
closes down for August while we're here working our butts off.
Maybe some of the people moaning about the summer break
have lost track of the reality for most New Zealand workers.
For most of us, the military minimum staff leave for
most New Zealanders is just four weeks after a year
of employment, twenty precious days that we then have to
eke out over twelve months. There are four big school

(09:18):
holiday periods parents need to think about that need to
take a break. For most New Zealanders, a big summer
holiday might last until the second week of January, and
that's it. And the longer you take over some of
the longer you have to work over the rest of
the year. Only a very few people casually skive off
for January. The people who have successful businesses, who have
managers in place, the semi retired, and all those superstars

(09:40):
whose success during the year grants them privilege. And I'm
looking at you, Mike Cosking and the other group of
the lawyers. Partly because the courts closed down now while
judges have nice summer holidays that only allowed a weekened
spring during the rest of the year, so the lawyers
can't work, so they bugger off to their beautiful batches.
And that's why lawyers were the most concerned at the

(10:01):
dropping of the new resource management system this week, because
there's a six week submission period and and that means
the lawyers are going to have to work all summer
like the rest of us, and that's why they're grumpy.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
It is weird how some industries have still got this
sort of traditional view of how things work with regards.
I don't know if you've ever tried to sell or
buy a house over the Christmas New Year period, it's
virtually impossible between the lawyers and the real estate agents

(10:36):
and you know, inspectors and all the rest of it's
the nightmare.

Speaker 3 (10:41):
I don't recommend it.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
News talk has it been now?

Speaker 2 (10:45):
I'm hoping this is all going to segue nicely into
this next pat but I don't.

Speaker 3 (10:48):
Know what it is.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
I haven't listened to it. It's podcast roulette time.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
I'm assuming.

Speaker 2 (10:56):
That it's something to do with how hot it's been lately.
But this is from Marcus's show, and it's called Mark
Ashburton Weather Report.

Speaker 3 (11:09):
Let's see, we're.

Speaker 9 (11:10):
Going live whether I've got a lot of texts coming through.
She's just she's all hitting. It's christ it says Burt,
and it's temudu. It's everywhere. So yeah, it was supposed
to be ten O seven. It's now ten I seven exactly.
It's happening as we speak. We go to we Shburton Markets, Marcus, good.

Speaker 10 (11:24):
Evening, Good evening is heavy. So there thunderstorm, torrential rain,
the winds here and the suns and storms have been
going for the last twenty minutes, and the whole sky
is lighting.

Speaker 11 (11:39):
Up more So you've got the triple threat.

Speaker 9 (11:41):
You've got thunder, you've got lightning, you've got rain, you've
got wind, and that's five. You've got hail, wind, rain, lightning, thunder.

Speaker 10 (11:49):
Not hail yet, no hail, No, no, it's no hell.
But I tell you if the thought lightning does hit
a transformer, she'll be alla.

Speaker 3 (12:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (12:02):
I think people are predicting the power to go out today,
are they? Is that right?

Speaker 1 (12:06):
Yeah?

Speaker 10 (12:07):
I'd say so. You know that's pretty ka. This is
very savera.

Speaker 11 (12:11):
Is Is it the sort of one that looked like
it could be damaging?

Speaker 10 (12:16):
No? No, no, that's m hmm. When there's I don't know,
you're probably looking back maybe ten to fifteen miles an hour.

Speaker 11 (12:25):
Actually, okay, not bad at all, So it's not bad.
But you've been struck by lightning, have you?

Speaker 3 (12:34):
Mark?

Speaker 11 (12:34):
You've got miss last year?

Speaker 3 (12:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 10 (12:37):
Well yeah, yeah. The rain and very year is coming
down quite heavy now and the thunderstorms and the right
things utually just lightened up the whole sky.

Speaker 11 (12:48):
Brilliant great report, man't you know, I'm not sure.

Speaker 3 (12:51):
I'm not sure about that. That was a great report.
You can't have lightning without thunder. That's just a fact.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
And it's very unusual to have hail without thunder and
lightning as well, and there wasn't even any.

Speaker 3 (13:14):
But I feel like Matt is feeding me out of day.

Speaker 2 (13:19):
But sometimes on the day. Last night, people bringing in
macus what the weather is, not.

Speaker 3 (13:29):
What the weather's going to be, just what it is.
Every time I did. That pretty much sums up the
week on News Talks d B.

Speaker 2 (13:41):
And I'll be back with a weekend weekend edition of
New Talks d Been and hopefully I'll be able to
talk ruptly.

Speaker 7 (13:46):
By then on Monday, News Talking Talking zid Been.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
