Speaker 1 (00:00):
Tim Wilson, Kate Hawk's me, good morning, good morning, good morning.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Good morning, good morning.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
My favorite story of the week is Hailey Bieber and
her sale. You won't know much about this, Tim, but
Katie and I talked about this extensively in the car
as we crossed town yesterday, and I said, I said
to Katie, my social media slash cutting edge, modern ish
(00:26):
vibe person and tech guru, and my tech guru, I
said this, Hailey Bieber, talk to me.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
You didn't know.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
You didn't fake news. You said, quote, who's Hailey Bieber?
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Is she a thing?
Speaker 3 (00:41):
And I said, are you joking?
Speaker 1 (00:43):
And you said, no, I'm not, that is true. What
I didn't know, Tim, stop laughing. What I didn't know
was that Hailey Bieber was a Baldwin and according to
my social media manager, All Baldwinds, she's a Neppo baby,
so All Baldwin's vase. What I wanted to know is
to bring everybody up to speed on this. She started
three years ago a makeup company and she's now sold
(01:07):
for a billion dollars, so three hundred and thirty three
million dollars per year. So three years later she sold
it for a billion dollars. What I wanted to know
was she a thing going in? So in other words,
when you go high, I'm making mascara these days, do
people then buy the mascara because you're a thing? And
I think she was the thing as a supermodel. You
tried to tell me Katie she was a Baldwin, which
made her semi famous. But I don't know that people
(01:29):
buy makeup because Alex's somehow involved in the process.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Well, she's justin Bieber's wife, which.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Is when she shows that.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Why yeah, that's where she exploded into the celebrity stratosphere.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
But do you buy listic.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Really beautiful glowy skin So she did a range of
like it's really more skin here. It's like dewey, glowy
skin drops and lip balms, and people look at her
and go, I want to look like you. It's the
Kylie jen effect. It's the same reason success.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Can I go and get Mike? Shall I go and
get the Rio bi power? Drill back again? It's getting
all I'm just saying.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
What I'm saying is that in a world of in
a world of stuff, that's an extraordinary story. There's a
story this morning. Now I've written it down and unfortunately
my right I can't read my own writing. Is there
a brand? Is there a brand?
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Call? What you need to do? You need to you
need to stop with the curse of and get with
the printing. That's what the kids are doing.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Thoughts, All of my thoughts are down in writing in
terms of typewriter. But unfortunately I've then gone and scribbled.
Is r A A CE a local brand? It's a
botanical skin care?
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Deal?
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Is it racy rah rah ray Ray?
Speaker 3 (02:38):
It's r A I E?
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Is that that'll do.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
A E?
Speaker 1 (02:43):
Okay, now that story this morning. They've just gone and
done a deal with a botanical skin care It's Sephora,
So there's money there. So I'm just wondering if we
need to launch our own marking the week skincare the
weak skincare. Yeah, I think we do.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
I think it would probably be an end you wrinkled
cream given out collective ages.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
I actually I don't well, okay, I don't think anyone
might want Mike or my skin, but maybe your skin.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
My skin's pretty good on My skin is pretty.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
Actually, his skin is excellent. He gets comments us all
the time. He looks after the skin.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Do you know what my highlight of working for TV
and Z was that I would sit the more no
I know, I would sit in the chair and they
would go, your skin's incredible. Wow, that's what they're saying.
That's what more than one person, and that was the
highlight over another giar while I mean, you know you
want the highlight.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
You know I was there with you on seven sharp
for a while.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
You know we've all work Okay, Next question, quick question?
How many poos has Sammy's dog done on the carpet
this week?
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Yeah, I was just talking to myf ear saying it really,
a puppy is like a kin to a newborn because
it is so distracting and so twenty four seven you
can't take your eyes off it.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
No, I disagree. I don't think it is the equivalent
a new ball. I know you've had both, but I
just can't see it.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
I agree with him.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
It's it's a good it's a good practice run for
sam If not incredible.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Not doing very well, I wouldn't have kids. It's my
advice after week one exactly, just poos on the wall.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
What's wrong with you? You don't you can't see our walls?
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Why are you laughing, well, because I'm just thinking I
can see it all coming. What I enjoy at the
stage of my life is seeing people go through things
that you know are going to unfold in the way
that you know they're going to unfold, and they go
no no, no, no, no no, and then they unfold
exactly the way you thought they were. And it's just
so enjoyable to watch. Basically.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
But see, I was right all along.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
He argues. Now we'll ask this question going to the break.
When I said, how's it gone this week in the
old department, he goes, she only did it once on
the carpet And I said, but what about the wall?
And he said, he said, they're separate things. My question
(05:03):
to you going to the break is doing is doing?
I can't even simple rules. Sam, puppies are food and
food out instantly. Take your puppy outside straight after feeding.
Now that's good advice. What Texter doesn't realize is Sam's
on the forty second floor of this thirty seven square
meter apartment. You can't do that. Yep, learning curve with
(05:24):
a dash hoound puppy so busy. By the way, Glenn's
we dog Gavin is for surgery today at the bit.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
Oh, what sort of surgery?
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Good question?
Speaker 2 (05:38):
How much is that going to cost? To talk about it?
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Doesn't want to talk about it? Insurance does he?
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Yes? It seems to be a very gray area over
exactly how much in exactly what they cover?
Speaker 1 (05:51):
What percentage they know? You never asked those questions when
you take it out, do you? And the problem with
that is you never asked because you never know what
you're going to be requiring, and because you never know,
ladies insure companies would rather not pay. So I always say,
have a look at the have a look at the
profit margins and insurance company and tell them, tell me
how that works. The dog is named Jerry, by the way,
is it not Jerry?
Speaker 3 (06:12):
I didn't want to say anything, but I didn't think
Gavin was an unusual dog's name, more.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Or less unusual than storm storm. No, storm, Storm's a
good dog's name because not many people are called storm.
Is that what your dog's name? So, Sam's jeez, storms
call it storm?
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Well, that's that's like that's like calling a kid's storm.
That's like calling a kid tantrum. That's why would you
do that?
Speaker 1 (06:34):
It's like a herald headline called storm, Who's called Who's
called storms?
Speaker 3 (06:40):
One of Kylie Jenner's kids.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Well, I rest my case.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Does a kid making makeup? Has a kid got a
mascara line?
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Out? Get that dog its own show?
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Storm lips? So they thought about that storm lips, storm eyes,
stormy eyes. I mean that I'm whiteboarding this as we
go left front center, Tim, how old were you when
you bought your first house?
Speaker 2 (06:59):
Bought? Mom? Oh, golly's fourteen, twenty fourteen, it's eleven years ago, Tim,
So do your age?
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Well, so you're seventy sixty four, you're three, sixty three,
sixty sixty this year sixty this is your mind, sixty
forty nine, Yeah, so forty nine. You're well above the average. Katie,
how old were.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
You twenty two or three?
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Yeah? See, it's a time of life thing, isn't it.
You're a bit lost, won't your term? I mean that's
what that boiled down to, we a bit lost.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Well, I was wandering in the wilderness for many years.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
And that and that is that is the thing. That's
That's the same with our kids. I heard you saying
they're not going to buy houses, and it's priorities for
them as well. A lot of them would rather travel
and see the world and do other stuff, so they're
not at that. Then they're at a totally different stage
of life that we were at at that time. So
everything is happening older. I think that's just the truth.
That's just what's happening.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
So you say that's are doing stuff, they don't.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
They None of them want to get married young, none
them want to buy houses.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Now I would, yeah, I would, I would push, but
I don't know if that's a good thing. You see
what it is, well, well, but we can still make
a value judgment on it. I don't think. I don't
think it's it's well, I read the persponement of the
of adulthood is actually the extension of infantilism.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Well, I tend to agree with you, Tim, But having
said that, I did read this, and I must once
again reiterate to everybody. I don't know whether you want
to get yourself a copy of the listener, because that's
not good for your health. But it was reprinted elsewhere.
They've been doing this longitudinal study post elections of a
couple of thousand people every election for the last twelve elections,
and what I found out from that it's fascinating reading
(08:38):
is essentially we've not changed.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
I don't believe that.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Do you argue with fellow Zealanders. It is what it is.
It sounds like a towerpo to Aalkland turboprop traveler.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
I don't believe that either. I do not believe on
the flights. You talk to anyone in an airport or
anyone who's flown anywhere recently their flight's been canceled, that
they cannot be right.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
What's the point of statistic Why don't we just maybe
the mystery of Catherine.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
But maybe the stats are not up to date. Maybe
that's from April. That's from April that.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
I just wonder whether that's the same people being interviewed
over and over again. And it's an aging.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
It's not people being interviewed. It's not people being interviewed
on planes. It's like, did the plane taper down at
the airport? Going there? She goes, she's off market now
not I'm talking about.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
The other study.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Not there, here's three people who know nothing about statistics
to mating. No.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
I do I take your point on the post election
vibe thing, but but I thought the most interesting part
of it was the death penalty the majority of New Zealand.
And this is a yes or no thing. I mean,
so when you ask somebody, do you want more healthcare spinning,
that's a stupid question. But do you favor the death penalty?
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Yes or no?
Speaker 1 (09:46):
It's a yes or no question. We've always the majority
of New Zealanders have always favored the death penalty. And
yet do you think we've got it?
Speaker 2 (09:53):
No?
Speaker 1 (09:53):
Will we know why not?
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (09:57):
I don't believe it.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Of course you don't, And I don't know why we
run these I don't believe it. My whole life.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Offer a last night after a last minute, a last
minute life hack.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Yes, you want more time.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
We're making a big fuss over King's birthday, all right.
The last minute life hack is instant coffee. Instant coffee
five minutes. It's five minutes less than the other than
the smart coffee. Three cups a day. That's fifteen minutes
a day, ninety one hours a year, almost four days
a week. We make a fuss over King's birthday, give yourself.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
An You can have a long weekend simply by drinking
instant coffee. Is what you're saying. Absolutely no, that's actually
not bad at the end of it. What do you believe, Katie, Well.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
I just don't believe those two studies you've raised this morning.
I just can't believe either of them are correct in
any way, shape or form. I think you're talking to
probably an older generation. In the long tunal study. I
don't believe that that's current, even though they say they
do it. And I know we don't have time to
dissect how I think that works.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
But you've got you've got a long weekend.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Now you guys can dig into the numbers, get back
to us.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
What's going to be a great weekend? Can you promise
me over the next three days, Cadie, you're not going
to raise this again?
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Will you raise it?
Speaker 3 (11:09):
I didn't want to raise it, but I just don't believe.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
I'm going to say, Mike, I'm Mike, Mike, lookout, lookout.
It looks like she's going to give you a prejek
Mack wrong.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Get the miss back out and Tim, I'm coming to
your place. It's a twenty three. For more from the
