Speaker 1 (00:00):
Tim good morning, Katie, good morning.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
Good morning. Love a little man in black, My goodness,
that's fantastic.

Speaker 1 (00:07):
Little man, And well, I am a little man and
I am wearing black this morning. But that's not what
you were meaning. I'm taking it. But imagine behind material
that gets released later in life and you sort of
live on through that. That's nice.

Speaker 2 (00:21):
Say yeah, well, I love for the release of your
unpublished solid collection that you're working on.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
It'll be good when it comes. By the way, another
apology to make on the program this morning, Elliot Smith.
And this was Ian Jones who came on with the details.
Elliot Smith on early edition, I mean, thank god it
was my final early edition this morning. I don't have
to face the acrimony and embarrassment come Monday. But Elliott Smith,
it alluded to the fact that it wasn't to sell out.

(00:48):
The All Blacks went to sell out. It is, in
fact to sell out. So that's encouraging because of the
All Blacks can't sell out. No one can sell out.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
Glad to clarify that, I love the riff by the
way with you and in about did you know it
was the anniversary of Caesar salads? Did you know did
you know?

Speaker 1 (01:04):
Did you know it's a good story. It's not being
widely covered enough today by the media. No what the
media seemed obsessior than this country. Yes, it's pretty father well,
it is one hundred years since the caesar salad. Alex
Cardini invented the caesar salad one hundred years ago in
Mexico in nineteen twenty four. I mean that's I mean
little did they know I would still like a Waldorf

(01:25):
over a Caesar personally, Katie?

Speaker 3 (01:28):
I made a beautiful one the other day, didn't I
Apple and fenyl. It was kind of like a Waldorf
with toasted walnuts, but more.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
Really apple and penyl. Yeah, it's delicious. So basically an
apple and phenyl salad as opposed to a Waldorf. But
it was delicious, no question about that.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
Don't talk of town.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
It was a great I.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
Wasn't talking it down. I was talking it up. I
go as far as the penyl goes. Coun't beat fennel.
You into a bit of penyl, tim.

Speaker 2 (01:50):
Take the leave it, take to leave it. Hey, I've
got a question. Do I do I look like the
Warriors coach Andrew Webster?

Speaker 1 (01:58):
You've fayd? Have you e been approached had question because
the moment you say something like that, you plant the
seed of a thought in people's mind and they go, actually,
now that you say that, yes, yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:07):
Now that you say okay, so okay. So guess what
I'm out and about at the mall And some bloke
walks past and goes get a and I say, do
I know you? He said, you're Andrew Webster, You're the
Warriors coach.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
Did you go with it?

Speaker 2 (02:22):
Did you did go with it? Yes? I did? I
ran with it. I said, yep, yep, I'll tell you what.
How about that massacre on the Gold Coast? He said,
what were you? What were you thinking? Bro? I'm like,
I know the schmuck called Mike Hosking. I got him
in to coach that game, and that's what happened.

Speaker 1 (02:42):
And how did he react to that?

Speaker 2 (02:46):
He's like, he said, just the look of resignation, shock
and recognition on his face. He knew it was you.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
I don't think you're big enough to be honest. I
mean you're sort of looking little, but I don't think
you're big enough. How's the dog ekd? Because everyone deeply
interested in our doggie, are they?

Speaker 3 (03:03):
Well, it's interested. What they should know is that we've
hit a very sip dog all week, and such as
my dedication to the dog.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
And to Katy Katy Catty. Sorry because you don't listen
to the program. What I do is I build up
to the segment with a few key clues and so
there's no point of view coming on now and just
reiterating what I've already said, and you didn't hear in
the last half hour. We're up to speed with the dog.
What we just want is this morning's prognosis.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
Well, I was just going to actually explain, because you
managed to just skirt around the edges. I think when
you do make your points on here that such as
my dedication to the dog and your show and your
well being, that I slept all week in a separate
room with dogs. I could get up with her every
couple of hours that had.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
Nothing to do with the dog, and you know it, And.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
Do you know what?

Speaker 1 (03:47):
Do you know?

Speaker 2 (03:47):
What?

Speaker 1 (03:48):
Do you know what?

Speaker 3 (03:48):
Peters, I'm like a zombie who hasn't left the house
apart from to go some time to the vet, and
I'm just like barely functioning. It's like having a newborn
all over again. Just no sleep at all. And what
myke was He went shopping and brought yet more colts
for himself.

Speaker 2 (04:07):
Oh my goodness, it's a good quageous.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
The reason do you get for Kate? You're honor in
the trenches?

Speaker 2 (04:16):
What did you get for your bride?

Speaker 3 (04:17):
With nothing for me? But he stood be going and
I got this one, and I got this, I got
more coming in other colors. So I bought a those
and I'm like, oh my.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
How many can we get at the bottom of this?

Speaker 3 (04:27):
How many jerseys have you actually bought?

Speaker 1 (04:29):
It's not it's not wise to say numbers, Glenn, It's
not it's not wise to say numbers.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
Oh my god, you're honestly, this is These are like
the conversations we have with our kids. You're literally married
to a seven year old.

Speaker 1 (04:41):
No. Here is what happened in my defense term, and
this is important to put it on the record. I
went into town yesterday. It's the third Thursday at two o'clock.
And you know what happens on the third Thursday at
two o'clock, don't.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
You how great cuts are? Okay?

Speaker 1 (04:57):
So I walk in at two o'clock, as I have
done for the last twenty five years. Wow, Crisden, who
is an exotic Scandinavian woman who stands behind the counter
and runs the place, looks at me and puts three
fingers up as though that means something to me. And
I go, what, and she goes, it's three o'clock. I said,

(05:20):
what when did it become three o'clock? It's two o'clock
and it's been two o'clock for twenty five years. Now
it's three o'clock. And then I said, what's gone wrong?
And so the upshot of it was is this time
and next time is three o'clock, and then it goes
back to the next twenty five years of two o'clock.
So something went wrong, and so they could offer me
no service. So I was in town, in downtown orkinguses

(05:41):
downtown Auckland, taking a life into, taking my life into
my own hands, and I thought, oh, my goodness, what
can I do other than continue to support the wool
industry of this country, having gone into the marino business
last week and brought myself a marino jersey, and what
else can I do to fill this out? Then to
go and avail myself of the opportunity that I've suddenly

(06:02):
discovered and purchased myself some more Marina, which is what
I did. And that's all I'm doing. I'm trying to
support the farmer of this country.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
But are you layering up? Like what's going on?

Speaker 2 (06:11):
Are you putting one Jusey over the top of another.

Speaker 3 (06:15):
He's been wearing the same jersey all week.

Speaker 1 (06:17):
Now I got multiple.

Speaker 2 (06:18):
He is layering up. He's layering up the victimology. So
it's like, oh, my twenty to twenty five year old here,
appointment was changed. I didn't know what to do. I
had to go into town for me. It's not anyone
else's fault, it's your fault.

Speaker 3 (06:34):
Claim has like a goal is kind of an argument
to me.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
And I came, came it sounds like Taylor Swerft.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
And I got home.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
You made me do. I got the agency, mate.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
I got home within the hour. And Katie goes to
me and she goes, oh, you're home early, And so
I see it. Not only am my home early, Look
what I got?

Speaker 2 (06:52):
Look what I got me?

Speaker 3 (06:54):
Yeah, I've had the big time. And then he starts
pulling out jersey after jersey after Jusey and telling me
how many more he is ordered. And I'm like Jessey
last week. You like, Yeah, but I loved them and
I wanted Jerseys.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
Do you I don't know how you can.

Speaker 3 (07:07):
I don't know how you can do that. I just
don't know how you can do that, And he goes,
I loved every don't castigate me.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
I was having the time of my life.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
If I gave you Tim, if I gave you to
him one thousand dollars to give up your car for
five weeks, would you.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
Make it? No?

Speaker 1 (07:34):
No, No. The one thousand dollars is based on the
cost of you running the car for five weeks. So
all I'm doing is getting you into doing something different
by way of transportation, and so you're saving the cost
of running that car as an exercise. Will to do it?

Speaker 2 (07:47):
That's what?

Speaker 1 (07:47):
But that's what he has done in America.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
No, I wouldn't. I wouldn't because Suzuki swept and I can.
I can run that puppy on two hundred and thirty
for five weeks.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
Okay, what about you, Katie? Would you give it up
for a thousand bucks?

Speaker 2 (08:01):
No?

Speaker 3 (08:01):
I probably wouldn't because I just find well, because I'd
have to rely on other transports, which in Auckland is
completely dysfunctional, doesn't we.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
Let me tell you think because this will be another
thing that you missed from the Mic Hosking breakfast this
week is guess guess what the biggest uptake of transportation
was for people who entered into this experiment when they
couldn't use their car because they got their one thousand bucks.
Guess what they did by way of getting about the place.

Speaker 2 (08:26):
Bike?

Speaker 1 (08:28):
Good guess, but wrong, Tim. Did you hear the story?

Speaker 2 (08:32):
No? I didn't. I didn't. I'm just I'm trying to think.
I mean bus will train.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
No, so you'll say, bustle train. Now this America.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
That are walking walking?

Speaker 1 (08:42):
Was the answer. They walked. Seventy seventy three percent of
people walked, which which for it no doubt, which tells
you what.

Speaker 3 (08:52):
Though they're not as spread out of the city as
Aukland the way they did this because for many.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
People, yeah, they were somewhere else. It's a good point.
Good point, kay, was it? Was it a bet? This
wasn't a Los Angeles Los Angeles? In New York?

Speaker 1 (09:09):
Los Angeles was one of the cities, Los Angeles one
of the cities. Were you too moaning?

Speaker 2 (09:14):
Yesterday?

Speaker 1 (09:14):
Chris Bishop Kady about balconies as well. Nineteen square meters
were because.

Speaker 3 (09:18):
I take it, I take his point. If you don't
want to live in a shoe box, don't. They're looking
to solve the problem that everybody across the board agrees
is a major issue. Why not try something and you know,
and get it done. If that works, great, If it doesn't, don't,
don't have it. I mean, personally, I don't want them
going up next to me because it sounds like plum.
It sounds very off.

Speaker 1 (09:36):
Post, so small nimbi example there, ladies and gentlemen, just
a little bit of nimbi ism on the micssquer. Personally,
I don't want them next to me. But if somebody
wants to live in nineteen square meters over there, they're
more than welcome to.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
Whait wait wait, you don't want this.

Speaker 3 (09:51):
Don't want this is taken over by these horrible you know,
shoear departments. But I also people need to live here.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
We remember who was doing the English to through English
accent as the blok who blew what how much? We
don't know on one hundred jerseys at the more recently
because it's all everyone else.

Speaker 1 (10:09):
That's barharting the new Zealand wool industry. I mean, you
can't blame me for being patriotic at the end of
the day, can you, Hey, listen.

Speaker 2 (10:19):
To me your if your life.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
Seven hundred and fifty thousand people are going on holiday.
Are you one of those people going on holiday and
flying around the country.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
No, no, we're not. I've got a few days off
over the school holidays. But we'll see what we You
know what, maybe maybe instead of driving we could walk somewhere.
