At the end of each week, Mike Hosking takes you through the big-ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all. 

 

Tech: 3/10 

For all that it's changed we have become hopelessly reliant on a thing we don’t get and can't cope with when it doesn’t work right. 

 

The All Blacks: 6/10 

We won and we saw some new talent. Whether it swept America is another issue. 

 

The NBA: 9/10 

Amazon won over Warner Brothers in a battle worth billions. Now that’s how you run sport. 

 

Joe Biden: 3/10 

For all the nice words it ends in a sort of pathetic whimper. 

 

Donald Trump: 5/10 

Took a lot of the good will out of Butler and blew it up by being so uncool with a movie length rant. 

 

Kamala Harris: 7/10 

Winner for the week. Raised the money, looked energetic and stitched up the delegates, but didn’t move the polls though and that is your worry. 

 

The Olympic medal chances: 2/10 

They predict 14 medals. Isn't that a worry?

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Time now to make a week little piece of news
and current events that's more popular than a ten dollar
uber eats voucher from CrowdStrike Tech. Three. For all that's changed,
we become hopelessly reliant on a thing we don't get
and can't cope with when it doesn't work properly. The
All Black six we won. We saw some new talent.
Whether it swept America is another issue, of course. The

(00:20):
NBA nine, Amazon over Warner Brothers in a battle worth billions.
Now that is how you run sport. Biden three, I
mean my choice all nice words, but it ends in
really a pathetic sort of whimper, doesn't it? Trump? Five?
If she wants nobell, If you murder somebody, just go
home and relax. Murder a couple of other purple, take

(00:42):
a lot of goodwill out of Butler and blew it up.
This time last week. You remember this time last week
in Milwaukee being super uncol with the movie length raps
are so taking down the temperature. Hasn't happened, Harris seven.
We are fighting for the future. Yeah, we order to
reach it. I raised the money, looked in energetic, stitched
up the delegates, but didn't actually move the needle in
the pole, So that's going to be a bit of

(01:02):
a worry our health. New Zealand six because sacking boards
sex Sex. Yes, six are because sacking the boards is
action and it at least shows you mean business. Are
the new road north eight? Actually nine? Actually ten? Northland
has been treated appallingly for years and roads mean growth.
Best decision of the week to fast track that particular road.
New Zealand inc. Two We are straight from trade figures

(01:27):
this week to the retail figures this week to the
hotels that aren't full. The amount of stuff that isn't
being done is ugly. Meridian four. Another example actually tells
t why to do less. Doing less is not a
business plan. Canada and drone seven Story of the week
is women's football. The women's FOOTBA team gonna win a
middle No, so why are they spying? Why are they

(01:48):
using drones? Weird? Are the meddle chances too? Wat? They
predict fourteen medals? Isn't that a worry in itself? And
one of those medals, which is a gold is it over?
We've lost? Okay, so it's thirteen medal if one seven
like the good old days, domination over genuine intrigue any
number of storylines. It is next level and thralling. Roger

(02:11):
Hellam seven that's stuck in jail for sitting down on
a road and being a pratt. The Extinction Rebellion and
all their mates need to be taught a lesson. We
need more of that. And that's the week copies on
the website. And if you take an average one hundred
and forty three of these, by the way, and compress them,
they turn out to be an excellent pothole fix. For
