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.  

 

Meteorological paranoia: 2/10  

Between the MetService and the media, you would have thought Noah and his large ship were going to be needed, and yet... 

 

Teachers: 6/10 

God bless them, but it’s hardly a surprise when you see a drop in numbers, is it? Would you be a teacher? 

 

Easter rules: 3/10  

I'm not sure what’s worse, the shambles they’ve become, or the annual tedious debate about changing them… even though we never change them. 

 

Hegseth: 4/10 

Looks increasingly like a doofus, and I’m not sure he wasn’t a doofus to start with. 

 

Canada: 7/10  

Best election going right now – early voting at records, massive swing in the polls… could be one to remember. 

 

Exports: 8/10 

Good news story of the week. In March, this country hit it out of the park – that’s what we need more of.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Skiving crity four. Time now to mark the week, little
piece of using current events. It's more exciting than a
heavy thunderstorm alert on a day without thunderstorms. Meteorological paranoia
two between the met Service and the media. You would
have thought Noah and his large ship were going to
be needed, and yet power supply free. See. I think
that's the real story, not the weather. The weather wasn't
that bad, but the infrastructure couldn't cope, and when it

(00:22):
couldn't cope, neither could those in charge of it. Teacher
sex God bless them. That are hardly a surprise. When
you see a drop in numbers doesn't mean really, would
you want to be a teacher? Be honest, would you
want to be a teacher? Rfk said Warrior from America's
children are f agent announcing the end of food dies
not a minute too soon. For all his nuttiness, of
which there is much, this stuff actually makes sense and

worse the shambles they have become or the annual tedious
debate about changing them, even though we never change them.
Women and men. New Zealand first styles four versus got

(01:02):
bandwagon written all over it. Posser Brothers of Levin eight
from the hawksby Hosking household their eggs as in their
Easter eggs. They are the best in the country. Levin

So what's going on Levin? Anyway? Heigseth four. If this

is what the media does in their tro slash and
burn people not gonna work with me. Looks increasingly like
a dufus And I'm not sure he wasn't a dufist
to start with. Gnome four, Passport three grand and Cashioner
back on a Sunday night at burger joint and she's
actually in charge of stuff, mind you, her security detail too.

(01:44):
They were at the table whether as the bloke nicked
it from right under them, I mean literally right under them.
Canada seven first election going right now, early voting at records,
massive swing and the polls could be one to remember.
Exports eight good news story of the week in March
this country hit it out of the park and that

(02:04):
is what we need more of in this country. And
that is a week something else we need more of
copies on the website, and thirty six of these were
handed out by the way Queenstown Airport for the Bujin
passengers who waited for the plane that never came. Earlier
reports actually suggest marking the week was so much fun,
most people said, what plane? Who needs a plane? For
