Speaker 2 (00:22):
Hello, my beautiful beanies, and welcome to the bean for Tuesday.
First of yesterday's news. I am Glen Hart, and we
are looking back on Monday. So we've got some revised
health targets or some new health targets. A lot of
it to do with GPS, so I'm sure that'll get
sorted out in no time. The government's fast tracking some
(00:44):
land acquisition rules around infrastructure. There's nothing that can possibly
go wrong with that. When when do you need to
cut off the support tap to your kids? And Marcus
tries to remember what happened on Severance but before any
(01:05):
of that crazy labor storming back into contention. Congratulations. It's
amazing what you can achieve when you don't really do anything.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Forecasts have us back and growth inflation tamed, people feeling better,
people feeling a bit more upbeat, voters in a better
mood come election time twenty twenty six, and all of
that will help luxem. Nobody would actually vote Hipkins back
into the beehive. It's just a protest vote. How crappy
the current situation is, which doesn't mean that Luxon should
(01:39):
rest on his laurels. And today how frustrating another example
of his political instincts letting him down. This time it's
again Andrew Bailey. He did something supposedly bad, although nobody
actually really knows how bad, but bad enough to resign
as a minister. And then he asks to go on
leave for two weeks to go hike in Nepaul and
(02:01):
they let him go. Come on, he should have been
made to sit in the back of the house and
take his shame and make his punishment. Letting him skive
off even though he's taking leave just looks bad. Luxon
needs to grow a pair, a bigger set of balls,
and get a bit tougher longer term, the biggest threat
to his re election is not Chris Hopkins Exactually, if anything,
(02:23):
Donald Trump, if this chaotic trade war continues at the
rate that it has been, global growth will surely take
a big hit and with it a chunk of Luckson's
chances of riding this economic wave back to the ninth
floor of the beehive. It's a bit.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
It's hard to be Latin, isn't it because everybody said
that they wanted somebody who knew how to run a
business to run the country. But then when he's there
and he runs it like a business. So somebody applies
for leave, you give them the lead. Don't yet at
a business, But when it's a bad look politically horribly shouldn't.
(03:13):
So you can't have it both ways. But it's tricky.
What is it with politicians and hiking up mountains as well?
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Look?
Speaker 2 (03:24):
How can I keep wanting to do that? Get away
from it all?
Speaker 4 (03:27):
I suppose news talk has it been right?
Speaker 2 (03:31):
So Simon Brown one of Luxin's main attack goals. He's
attacking health with bim and vigor, isn't he.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
I think at this point it's important to think about
where we came from and where we are. Labour tried
to reduce the DHBs from over twenty to forty and
introduced a Malordi Health Authority, even though the right wing
had been complaining about the inefficiency of too many boards
for years. When a left wing government does it, it's
branded as a socialist central government takeover. So we decided
(04:00):
to reverse it, and after fifty million dollars was spent
pursuing the four megaboards. We appear to be right back
where we started, except we are not back where we started.
Leicester Levy has been cutting the workforce, and the workforce
complains that the whole sector has been hollowed out. We
have more funding than ever. We're told that all the time,
particularly by the Prime Minister, and yet it did not
(04:21):
keep pace with inflation. And I'm talking about the last
twenty years, not just the last one. And to cope
with the waiting lists that are built up over the decades,
patients are now being directed to the private system. The
upshot is that the public system is slowly withering, very
slowly though, and it's a good time to be a
shareholder and a private health facility because you're getting the overflow.
(04:42):
We seem to be heading towards a two tier health system,
one for those with money and one for those without.
And increasingly, if you don't have health insurance, you're playing
a waiting game about who will see you first, St
Peter or the surgeon.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
And then, of course, if you don't believe in Saint Peter,
then you're really screwed. I suppose My father in law
always said that statistically, you're probably better off just saving
your money and paying off your mortgage and then using
that money to pay for any help issues down the track,
(05:19):
rather than having health insurance. We all I know is
that he's got a lot more money than I have,
so I feel like he knows what he's talking about.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
Right.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
So part of this fast track gas government's stumbling block
has been, you know this infrastructure thing, how fast can
you really build stuff, especially if you're not really allowed
to do it on the land that you want to
(05:50):
do it on. Well, they're going to fix all that
that you worry about that?
Speaker 6 (05:53):
Or do you support this? You know, would it make
a difference? Does everybody I guess have their price? What
an extra quarter of a million dollars they're or thereabouts?
Make you realize that or a house is not necessarily
a castle but a valuable asset. I mean, isn't that
(06:13):
fabulous Australian film The Castle built around the whole concept that,
you know, infrastructure has its place, but not when it's
a man's home. It's this castle. And there are stories
of landowners who have held up major works for years
and years and years because they don't want to leave
(06:35):
their home. It's their home and no amount of money
would make them change their minds. But people weren't talking
about governments. Weren't talking about extra payments of nearly a
quarter of a million dollars, were they? Does everybody have
their price? If you have land or property that's either
been acquired or in the firing line, does this make
(06:57):
a difference if you're a developer? Is this exactly the
sort of change and turbocharging you wanted to see?
Speaker 2 (07:03):
I think, if you're a developer, if you're going to
end up making more money than you were before, whatever
the change is, and that is what you're wanting to see,
isn't it. That's my understanding of how developers for the work.
I mean, I don't understand much about anything, So don't
listen to me. Now, when is it time to turn
off the tap for your kids? My kids both left home,
(07:30):
that both came back to ye and they're still there
and I would like to turn the tap off, but
it is hard when they're there saying can you please
turn the tap on? All the time?
Speaker 4 (07:42):
Get a Tyler and Maddie quality show is always thanks.
I had to read that we have a twenty two
and a nineteen year old still living at home. Both
studying and working part time, but wouldn't dream of charging
them board. They are both very responsible financially, and I've
always felt that the family home is sacrosanct. Although this
means that we have to live fairly lean, sometimes it's
(08:05):
well worth it, just a small way of helping out
our children. For your texting me, and I've got this
other theory on this whole thing, right, Okay, always got
my punishing theories. But here's another one. It was very
hard for me staying living with my parents because they
were very different from me. They are at different stage
in their life and all that kind of stuff. But
now parents, because culture hasn't changed that much, we're into
(08:28):
the same music, the same TV shows, the same you know,
we're into a lot of the same stuff. We're kind
of on the same page, me and my kids, so
I likeing them, hanging out with them, and I feel
like my oldest son has become a mate now. So
it's almost like a flat mat.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
So you know that whole cliche, I can't wait till
the kids get out.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
It was a whole whole thing in sitcoms that that
you just wanted the kids out of the house, so
you could have the time for you and your misses
to live a new life. Now, I think more and
more soft parents like me are like I quite like
having the kids around.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
I couldn't disagree more. My kids have become like flat mates,
but like the kind of flat mats that you just
can't wait for them to find somewhere else to go
because all of their annoying habits just become more and
more and more annoying and get more and more fixated
on it, and you try and engineer the whole day
(09:17):
to avoid them at all costs. News talk that might
just be me. We're going to finish up here.
Speaker 5 (09:27):
At least.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
We've sort of come up with quite a good scheme
at my house that we all pay for a streaming
pervise each, So one of my kids has she pays
for the Disney, we pay for the Netflix. I think, well,
the other one was supposed to pay for pay for
Prime Video, and then she stopped for an annoying We've
(09:50):
gotta find out what's going on there. It could be
something to do with the fact that she only worked
one day a week, but she needs to get her
priorities right and good that streaming service back on anyway,
I note yourself about that. Uh, let's I'm not sure
(10:11):
who pays for Apple TV Plus, but that's where you
find difference. Of course, although I don't know, Marcus knows that.
Speaker 7 (10:17):
You can get a sky Pod which plugs into an
HDM I put on your TV to watch sky Wire
via Wi Fi. You don't need a dish.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
No.
Speaker 7 (10:26):
I think that woman's got a dish, but she doesn't
watch Sky. She hasn't got a TV Aerieal, she's the
sky dishes your TV Aerieal. I've got people want to
get a lot of us want to get rid of Sky,
but we need it for our TV viewing.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
On Free to wear.
Speaker 7 (10:45):
Now I'm going to be I'm not watching any TV. Actually,
I'm just getting up in gardening, so I'm not seeing much.
Actually I'm missing out on TV. I still watch that
show begins with s they all watch. I still haven't
watched that. No, the other one, No, the one that
(11:08):
they're all watching. No, it begins with this. You know
they're all mad about it. It's a second series. Oh no,
the successions finished. It's like Sustenance or something. I don't
(11:28):
even know what format it's on because it's quite dark.
About the office they're all watching. It's like it's three syllables.
It's like succession, but it's not that you know what
it is, successions finished succession, the one about like the
(11:54):
Murdog's right, severance. See this similar word, isn't it severance?
But were you thinking severance? Were you? Yeah? Well, yeah, yeah,
that's right. So we're severance, Dan Apple TV?
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Where do I get that?
Speaker 7 (12:14):
Okay, I.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Think we've got Hulu.
Speaker 7 (12:19):
Who knows what we've got?
Speaker 2 (12:20):
I can assure him he doesn't have Hulu. You can't
just get Hulu in New Zealand. What is he talking
about with the free to it? If you've got any
TV that was produced in the last fifteen years, you
can just download the free TV apps. You don't need
an aeriel, you don't need a dish. He's very frustrated, me,
(12:46):
very frustrated. I'm not sure about this new season of Severance.
To be honest and simple, I mean, what are you
read halfway through? More than halfway through? I think this
season I'm still feeling like it that's desperately stregving to
get back to where they were in the first season.
(13:06):
It was a good idea, but I think what's happened
is that because it's a sci fi show essentially, but
they've gone a bit or away from all the sci
fi elements and it's people driving around in the snow.
I don't know what's going on. I mean, it was
hard enough to figure out what was going on in
the first place, but now when they're driving around in
(13:27):
the snow, they're supposed to be just going into the
building and becoming their work cells. That's what it stick
to what made it good. When I say maybe they
shouldn't have made any more. We'll never get Marcus's opinion
on it because he can't figure out how to watch
TV without a Mariel or a dish. Apparently, I am
Glen Hart. Thank you for listening to this. You also
(13:50):
don't need a dish or an aerial to listen to this.
It's very similar, Marcus. We'll see that here at Edinburgh.
I feel like we're going to teach all the hosts
how to do.

On Purpose with Jay Shetty
I’m Jay Shetty host of On Purpose the worlds #1 Mental Health podcast and I’m so grateful you found us. I started this podcast 5 years ago to invite you into conversations and workshops that are designed to help make you happier, healthier and more healed. I believe that when you (yes you) feel seen, heard and understood you’re able to deal with relationship struggles, work challenges and life’s ups and downs with more ease and grace. I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose. I can’t wait for you to listen to your first or 500th episode!
