Speaker 1 (00:00):
Tim Wilson, morning to you, Good morning Mike, and a
lot of anticipation over the arrival of Kate Hawksby very
good morning, Oh good morning, seemed to be something little nasal.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
I'm the best I've been all week.

Speaker 3 (00:14):
I feel good.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
I'm on the men's I'm fighting back.

Speaker 1 (00:16):
Thank goodness for them, just a little of the way.

Speaker 3 (00:18):
But can I just say no fighting now? Look, I
know this is an ongoing installment of marriage counseling on
the radio. It's the odd couple. It's a Bogan and
Marino and a beautiful wise woman. But we can get
to a good place. Guys.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
Okay, just a little bit of concern from the management
that you weren't going to show Katie because you're so
over me.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
Oh no, I'm a professional.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
I would never let thee What I just said is
what I just said to Jason. He said this could
be a pivotal moment for the program. I said, no,
she's a professional, and no matter how dark it's been
this week at home, she'll show.

Speaker 3 (00:52):
What was the quote from twenty to eight, the most
useless of all the useless.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
Peopleless things that had happened to me this week. As
Katie talking about all the useless things that happened, you
were the most useless.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
Because usually I can cope with the fact that you
just work every hour that God sends and you work
all day and you just completely checked out. And usually
I can cope with that because I'm busy and I'm
doing my own thing.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
But when you're sick, you're really.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
Needy, and you're really around and you're just kind of
on a sofa in your pjs, and you just kind
of he just checked out, and you're like, I could
literally be dead by now, like, hello, I need I
need something.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
But so but by the end of last night, you'd
added up, she said to me Tim, just before she
went to sleep. She said, I've just been adding up
in my mind what you did do, what I did do,
and it was and it was enough, she said, it
was enough, yes, to think that I was being a

(01:52):
little bit harsh. And then because she's all buggy, she
came and kissed me, kissed me all over, and I said, no, no,
that's lovely.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
This is he's really jim phobeck, so like I couldn't
even want to a room without him going no, no, no,
go away, go away, because you didn't want to get sicked.
You just want to snuggle, You just want someone to
like rub you exactly.

Speaker 3 (02:15):
This is great. This is great, guys, This is progressed.
This is not letting the sun go down on an argument.
I'm confident here. I think you guys can work it out.
You know the other you know, the other famous germophobe
who Donald Trump is very Donald Trump is a huge
do you know?

Speaker 1 (02:31):
And it's funny you were onto this one about Tuesday, Kadie,
as you lay there prostrate and going, oh my god,
I'm going to die. You blamed and it was this
time last week we were talking about it. You blamed
the radio Awards, and it is sorry I hadn't been
aware of this, but there are lots of people around
here who aren't here because they're ill, and it is
now being seen. And I'm going to get Michael Baker

(02:53):
on after eight thirty along with Helen Patuss Clark to confume,
to confirm it was indeed a super spreader event, super
spreader event.

Speaker 2 (03:04):
This is why I don't go out. This is why
being an introvert works, because the minute you socialize and
you go out into big crowded rooms, it's all over over.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
Couldn't agree more.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
But this is but you've you've got to work up
your you know, your antivirus stuff. You're immune, thank you, Mike. Yeah, yeah,
So you've got to get out in about a bit.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
Can I play a little pop quiz game? Because I
played the architecture game before and Glenn ruined it by
bringing logic to the argument and it was no correct
and it was no fun. So here's another thing. And
this is not to take away in any way, shape
or form from what has happened this morning with the
air crash in India, because that's a tragedy obviously, but
we were talking with this one survivor, seat eleven A.

(03:42):
I said, that must be the only time in the
history of aviation that a major plane has gone down
and one person survived, a singular person has survived. I
ask you this question before the break, Tim, how many
plane crashes do you think there have been major airline crashes?
Not little planes with two people? Major aline crashes? Have
there been where there's only been one so everyone killed,
one survivor how many do you think they've been? Think

(04:03):
about that, Katie, same question for you. Second question for you, Katie,
and this will make it extra fun. Do we do we?
Or do we not? And you can't google this during
the break? Okay, do we or do we not? Make
hosiary in this country? I say no more Colin, Very

(04:24):
good Colin text. He goes, it was obviously going to
be a super spreader event. Marcus was Kroc on the
radio the day before and he said, didn't he did
when he won as a wardy camp he said, I've
lost my boys.

Speaker 3 (04:33):
There's nobody more attaches early than Markers.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
And that was it. From a singular two thousand people
in the room. Marcus spread everywhere all over the place. Right, Okay,
let's go back to this, Tim, did you promise me
hand on heart you didn't google any answers?

Speaker 3 (04:46):
No, No, I didn't. I've got a question though, from when,
so the advent of aviation.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
Let's go from the aviation, from the time aviation, just
just generally.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
Okay, okay, second second question, do we include nine to eleven?

Speaker 1 (05:00):
No, that's deliberate, that's an accident.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
Okay, that's all right, all right, Okay, I'm going to
go for seventeen.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
Seventeen times a plane is crashed with only one survivor.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
Katie jeez, I would say a little bit less than that,
but not by much.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
What would you say? Maybe just under ten, less than ten.
Less than ten would be nine, Just under ten would
be nine.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
Let's say nine.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
Okay, let's say nine. See why aren't you agreeing with
me and saying it's never happened before? I mean, think
about the odds a plane crashes into the ground two
hundred people plus on board and there's a singular survivor.
What are the odds of that? I would have thought
the odds of that are millions to one. And yet
and yet, Katie, you are dangerously close to being right,
are you?

Speaker 3 (05:41):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (05:42):
Oh yeah, it's actually this is the fourteenth time.

Speaker 3 (05:45):
See making everyone happy? How hard can this be?

Speaker 1 (05:48):
Just as good times? This is the fourteenth time that
a major aligns crashed with only a singular survivor, which
I would have thought the odds of that happening as soon?

Speaker 3 (05:55):
Right?

Speaker 1 (05:56):
Hosiary Katie? Yes or no? Do we make it here?

Speaker 3 (05:58):
Or not?

Speaker 1 (06:00):
Think we do? Do we?

Speaker 2 (06:01):
I think I think we have since a long time.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
Time, since a long time ago.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
Okay, yeah, I think we do.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
Where do we make it?

Speaker 3 (06:09):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (06:09):
Gosh, I don't know that?

Speaker 1 (06:10):
Give it a go a great answered to him, well done.
That's sort of the industrial heart was one of because
it's in christ. It's just because it was sort of
the industrial heartland of Christ. You could have gone Wolston Rickitton,
you could have gone into Addington sydonym but ricketten great guests,

(06:32):
you're wrong, of course, Katie, your your guess. We're in
New Zealand and it's the only place where in New
Zealand do we make the paintyhose I've got no idea.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
I feel like this is running out harbs.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
Not a bad guess because the ANSWER's gisbon.

Speaker 3 (07:02):
No, not bad awesome.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
And so they're closing down now and forty five. They've
been making hose re since nineteen fifty one. They're about
to close in August. Forty five jobs are going to
be gone. My question to you, kiddie, is who wears

Speaker 1 (07:19):
I don't so don't bet me silly, No, Glenn, that's
only a rumor, Glenn, stop it. Do people still wear hosary? Yeah,

tights to school every day in winter.

Speaker 3 (09:22):
I don't know how that is.

Speaker 1 (09:24):

think he did. I think he did famously when he
was playing. Just to cover that off when he was playing.

Speaker 3 (09:34):
Can I can I just say, if you guys do
move to christ Ch Katie, you're going to get rinsed
by the locals for being an Aucklander.

Speaker 1 (09:40):

thing of it.

Speaker 2 (09:44):
I can't go now because people all get people will
eat me in the streets.

Speaker 3 (09:47):
Oh here's here's the deals are saying, Oh, it's a
bit chilly down here, but the family tell me it's
Chiley up in Auckland. The response was oh, what is
eighteen degrees exactly?

Speaker 1 (09:56):

Speaker 3 (09:57):
How they burn you?

sitting in front of probably I've counted it roughly, probably
either thirty six or forty eight sun gold Kiwi fruit? Right,
So I should bring those home. I was going to
give them to the people, the friends, my friends here
at work.

Speaker 3 (10:14):
You can't eat all of them before someone start going off,
can you.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
I don't know what they're all going to Glenn?

Speaker 3 (10:19):
Are they?

Speaker 1 (10:20):
Well? All the beer went to Glenn. We got some
beer the other day and Glenn stole all that and
took it home. And I'll come to that in a moment.

person at work. That's the main thing, eh.

a Kiwi.
