confesses the highlight of his week.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
Well, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
We got a text this morning saying he's on holiday
and he's not doing it because he's on holiday for
the next two weeks from Tim. Yes, oh, so he's
he's on holiday. He's on holidays. He's not on the show.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
But usually when he's on holiday, because that's usually like
a Nelson or Vegas, he usually dies with it.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Anyway, it's the four day week attitude. It's the work
from home mentality that's come to the program. So we've
drummed up in the news.
Speaker 2 (00:42):

got we've drummed up somebody during the news as a
late breaking participant in the program. Right, okay, So we're
going to play a game and the prize is a
year's worth of the sweets of your choice.
Speaker 2 (01:05):

to replace them?
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Do you not?
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Is there no trust in me to fly solo?
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Here?
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Very good, actually quite a good point. I'll answer that honestly,
and unfortunately I have to throw somebody under the bus.
Jason said, we need somebody else.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Oh my goodness, by BFF.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Yes, right, so I'm going to play it. So, so
a year supply of the lollies of your choice or
a five hundred dollars donation to the charity of your choice,
whichever you like, if you get it right. Okay, So
so clue number one. He is known by everybody, broadly,
broadly popular, Glenn. A little bit older than me, but
(01:47):
not much, oh but not nearly as good looking, A
little bit older than you.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
I thought, who's older than you? In there?
Speaker 1 (01:57):
They're not in here, They're not in here. They're just okay,
question they're not a radio person. They're not a radio person.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Oh just some rando.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
Well, no trying rando.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Last minute. This is Jason's call.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
It is Jason's call. Funnily enough, right, so who I said?
It's all keys? Okay, Well, question another two. Let me
give you another one. Let me give you another one.
Associated with the economic success of the country at a
time when it was referred to as the rock Star economy.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
Stephen Joyce.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Not bad, not bad, but not quite third and final clue.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Who, no, who, It's not a politician.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
It could be who'd you say?
Speaker 3 (02:44):
I said, John Key, Good morning, John morning, Mikey. I
have never been referred to as a rando. I mean,
I don't know. It's like it's tough, but I was.
I was super excited Katie and I got the call.
This was the highlight of my year, I think possibly
(03:04):
my career that you and I were a team.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yeah, Hey, how how much notice did they give you?
When did they call you?
Speaker 3 (03:12):
You know, it's just a typical organization. Again on the
My Costume Show, it's like five minutest. Can I start
with a question? How much do I get for this gig?
And I'll tell you why. I tell you why. I
asked that question because the other day I was I
was a little bit bored. I gotta be honest. So
I looked on chet Gpt and said, how much just
(03:32):
just cinder are doing get for a speech? Right? Anyway?
Turns out hundreds of thousands of dollars. So then I
said to chet Gpt, Okay, well how much does John
get for a speech? And it was obviously a fraction
of that, right, So then I went and saw brain
and I said, well, why is this the case? She said, well,
you're not that relevant anymore. Mate. I went, well, okay,
that's not good enough answer. So I went back to
(03:53):
check GPT and said, why does just Cinder are doing
so much more than shohn Key? And here's the answer.
She was a more empathetic leader. So I'm going to
be oozing empathy over the next fifteen minutes. And I
just want you to reach me out. That's all I want.
That's all I asked, just a bit of a bit
of cash to sort of loud the wheels of wine
(04:16):
or whatever I might like to pictures for it.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Good morning.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
You can negotiate on behalf of both of us, because
I bet you'd be a good negotiator on the door.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
Yeah, I'm a good Can actually we get Steven Joyce
in there? If we fail anyway?
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Exactly? Can you can? Can I just some ground rules, John,
if you don't mind, please don't use the word lube.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Well, I'm not the one who started it. You are
the ones calling me rando?
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Well, actually, exactly, Katie, do you regret using that terminology?
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Now?
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Well, I mean, I mean he's not a rando is he?
Now that we know who it is, but I mean initially.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
I was confused.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
That's also I apologize.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
It was actually some rando to get it correct.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Even worse, John Key's a legend, my word of miss
john Key. So, Mike, you expect Katie to work with
an amateur. That's the only negative one so far that
actually the wife. It's funny you should say you mentioned
(05:18):
Brona John Does Browner tell you what to wear and
what you look like? Oh?
Speaker 3 (05:24):
Yeah, yeah, well she she tells me like I look
at mess But yeah, she tries to tidy out my
egg but it doesn't really work. No, I don't have
any jackets nearly as flash as the ones I see
you on Mike Smider, don't they nothing like that?
Speaker 1 (05:36):
So when she comes from, Katie comes, So I come
home and Katie goes, you've got to stop wearing that
stuff like that, or you don't look any good in that,
or why do you still wear that? And she talks
about my moods and how it's not flattering and stuff
like that. Do you get a lot of that?
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Oh god no, no, no, she just she just gets
it all, puts it, puts it a black bag and
donates it to charity.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
I've got you got it up my game and step
it up like Bran I've obviously got to step it
up about.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Yeah, just take take take action, Katie ask for forgiveness later.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
The golf though, somebody asked about the golf. Is the
golf good?
Speaker 3 (06:13):
Yeah? The golf's pretty good. Yeah. I actually funny if
I mentioned the Napa Valley today, which is a long
way away from I mean, it's very nice. It's well,
I know you're only drinking one glass a day or something. Well,
I'm actually an off site. I'm working. I'm working, Mike.
But yes, it's a little bit of golf up here.
Very nice.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
And when you say glass a day, it's Katie, how
how many glasses a week? Is it?
Speaker 3 (06:35):
What's about two a week?
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Now? Very very good, very impressive.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
There's a lot of scientific evedents to prove it's good
for you. I reckon, do you reckon?
Speaker 1 (06:45):
What do you know? Well?
Speaker 3 (06:48):
I mean you know again if I go to the
Oracle of all information chet GBT. This made me more
buoyant on my drinking.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Has it?
Speaker 3 (06:55):
Does it?
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Have? You asked them? That is John Key drinking too much?
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Well? Look, I can no, no, I haven't asked that question,
but I can tell you on the campaign in the
old days, I'd give up for the six weeks of
the campaign because I just thought it was the right
thing to do, right, And I'd get up to audiences
and i'd say, look, I've given up drinking for the
last six weeks, and there'd be this groan, right, and
then I'd say, just for the record, they tell you
you sleep better, you feel better, you lose weight, everything's clearer,
(07:23):
it's all bullshit. It's not true. You don't feel men
of those things. And they'd all clap vigorously. So I
can assure you you are not on the side of
the winning angels here, for you're telling them to give
up drinking.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
There you go, Cadie, You so what.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
I know.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
He sounds exactly like you, identical to you. But you
cited that new stat this morning.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
I heard in a miser gallop. Now, it's funny. You
should be in Napa Valley because you won't know this,
but the things came out from America yesterday. There's fifty
four percent of the people in America drink alcohol now.
So in other words, it's basically fifty to fifty half
of America doesn't drink alcohol anymore. Would that be your
observation from Napa Valley? Probably not be Napablly.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
He's ally in a vineyard and he still manages to
appear on the show. We've got to ask him some
serious questions.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Yeah, that's true. But you don't work, to you, John,
I mean to be, Let's be honest. You're not really
working much these days, are you are.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
I'm on the board off site today. But yeah, no,
not not not as much as I used to. I
tell what it's true with drinking, though, young people aren't
drinking nearly as much. Amazing help of them don't drink.
You know, they might do other things, but they don't drink,
do you Reckon? They're on the cannabis in California? Oh yeah,
it depends where you go. I mean, you know, definitely
(08:44):
definitely Los Angeles, San Francisco and loose places one hundred
percent years, just kind of place it stinks, and that,
I Reckon's tolerable stuff personally, that you know, the devil's
letters as they call it.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
But you know, are you going to the French laundry?
Speaker 3 (08:58):
Funny enough and upmost to be maybe the sign the
economy is slowing a little more than you think. That's
open in the evening. But bouche On, which is when
you can kind of get in during the day, is closed.
Actually during the week, it's I think it's open Friday,
said there someday, but six what's Thursday here? And it
wasn't open yesterday or Tuesday. French laundry. Don't have time, unfortunately,
(09:19):
I worked on us, you know, driving mygenia.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
I've got too many.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
I mean, you do know that you've got the number
one talk show host talk show in the country. Eight
people are not that interested in what I'm doing. Some
information about something anything, no.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
No, no, I know. One of the things you'll learn
about this, I mean, obviously we'll review this performance, John,
it's not a lot for next week. But one of
the things you find about the slot fairly quickly is
it basically goes nowhere.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
I've heard it many times before, but it's not true.
Katie always comes up with some great gems. Tim's in there.
I mean, you'reso carrying the candle web, but really, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Have you the pickleball League, Katy just quickly because that
actually launched this week, didn't.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
It pickleball is going off. It's a big thing in
the States, doesn't it. I don't know if you've hit
it already.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
John, the play pickaball in Maui. I mean, I don't
know the rules, but rules who does?
Speaker 1 (10:17):
But rules are really really hard.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
It it's a really it's a stupid unusual and it's
hard to score too. But it's so much fun, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Oh, it's great fun. The ball is big and easy.
You don't want to kind of sort of try and
overdo things. I mean we are getting a little bit older,
but no, I real it's great fun little court, you know,
and it's massively popular. Like where our places in Maui,
there's pickable court and ten score. No one uses ten score.
Everyone uses pickable amazing?
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Could John join your league, Katie.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Well, there's a wait list, but I'll be prepared to
look at it. I mean we are beginners, we're not
we're not taking it too seriously, but we are having
a hell of a lot of fun.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Good now, it's really good fun.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
You strike, Well, I'll have my scan and i'll see
what the scan season.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
If it's.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Making your hair.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
We could be a team, Mike, you I could be
a team doubles. We could be some randos. I'll be
the sum and you be the Rando.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
