Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's coming up twenty one away from six The Huddle.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
With New Zealand Southerby's International Realty Exceptional marketing for every property.
Speaker 3 (00:08):
On the Huddle with Me this evening and got Jack Tame,
host of Saturday Mornings and Q and A and Mark
Sainsbury broadcast, Hello you Too Killed?
Speaker 4 (00:14):
Her problem with.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
The trigger warnings, Jack, is that it tells you what's
going to happen in the movie, and then it basically
ruins the story.
Speaker 5 (00:23):
I just don't know what's wrong with the Like the
old Raten or whatever, you just put that at the front,
say this is Raten or this is them or whatever,
and then you just move on from there. I mean,
I for one, have just never paid any attention to
the trigger warnings whatsoever. Fortunately, I'm not someone who really
has anything to be triggered by. But you're quite right,
like it kind of gives you a bit of a
heads up. You know that there's going to be violence,
you know that they're going to be sexual scenes, you
(00:44):
know they're going to be whatever else. And yeah, if
the research suggests that actually these are having the exact
opposite effect to what it was intended, I just don't
understand why we are continuing with.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Yeah, it grinds my gears sayings Tho, sometimes when you
sit down to watch it and it will be really specific.
It'll be like, there is a scene in this TV
show where blah blah blah happens and you go, oh, no,
he's going to do that to her? Now, I know,
have you ever had that experience?
Speaker 1 (01:07):
It ruins the show.
Speaker 6 (01:09):
Look, I totally agree. In fact, the thing exactly the
same thing that you're talking about. Jack. What's wrong with
the R eighteen or the you know there was a
simple guide. You knew this one's got a got a
stuff in it. You don't be watching it with your parents,
you know.
Speaker 4 (01:24):
So it's just it's just.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Jack and I are still at the stage where we're
worried about our children more.
Speaker 5 (01:32):
Well, that's that's a good point though, like to think
about kids, right, Like so, say the streaming services, it's
probably a lot easier for kids to access stuff that's
a bit Naarlia. Then we might have been able to
access at four thirty in the afternoon back in the
day if a parent isn't keeping an eye on them.
But again, I just I just don't know why we
can't just have like this is for mature audiences or
something like that, instead of getting into specific you know,
(01:57):
like on the sky you.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Can put a kiddylock on it so that the kids
get into that stuffy.
Speaker 5 (02:01):
Yeah, but but I like, what about the Netflix and
the tv Z class. I mean, look, we're in our house.
We're about less regulation, not more heaven.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
So you know we're pretty relate.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Are you like a free for all modern parents situation?
Speaker 5 (02:15):
No?
Speaker 1 (02:16):
No, not.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
But come back to me and seven or eight years
when he's in his teens, and I might feel a
little less cocky about it all.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
I reckon.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
I reckon, when he's in his teens, you're going to
be full noise nazi parent you. Yeah, I reckon you
will be. I reckon, you're going to be real tough
on him.
Speaker 5 (02:30):
I'm pretty I'm already pretty strict. I'm a back basics
kind of guy.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
But this is why I'm saying that, because I've heard
tell Because my producer told me that she overheard a
conversation one day and she was like, Jack can be tough,
and I was like, no, we can't, but apparently you can.
Speaker 5 (02:43):
No. No, I'm super I'm super strict from way back
I'm like sending them to Borstalre. You know this is
what we're going to.
Speaker 6 (02:49):
You just you just wait, Jack, They've taken off the
trigger warnings, just sitting down them to watch a movie
and all of a sudden.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
You canna explain yourself. Then hey, sain So, do you
reckon that the Commerce Commission? Do you have confidence that
they can actually solve the supermarket problem?
Speaker 6 (03:06):
Well, look, I heard what you said before. I mean,
how long have we waited? We know it's a problem.
I mean we don't need to be told over and
over again it's a problem. Do something, you know, and
you look at this report. They've come back and said,
you know, competition is working all those things that they
said was going to happen, But at the moment, I
mean it's the competition is marginal. You need to get
(03:28):
serious competition in there. And yeah, look they're going to
just get in there and do something. And especially when
you look at those profit margins compared to overseas, you know,
we always oh, I mean, look, they're a business, and
a lot of them are, you know, like with food stuff,
they're all individually owned. They're entitled to make a living.
That's what they're there for. But you know, they've got
us by the nuts.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Jack, They really do, don't they.
Speaker 5 (03:52):
Yeah, there are a couple of little figures that really
stood out to me in that kind of scimmission report.
So the first was that at prices have increased at
greater the rate the than the big supermarket companies have
been paying their suppliers.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
So that's the first concerning thing.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
The second was that they're sitting on one hundred significant
properties one hundred significant land banked property of properties around
New Zealand for future supermarket developments. I had no I
knew that they were sitting on some property.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
I had no idea it.
Speaker 5 (04:23):
Was that significant. And you know, unless you are able
to seriously intervene, I just I just don't know how
we're not going to continue repeating ourselves. And I don't
think the threat of a ten million dollar fine.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
Is going to be a major concern to those companies
for now. Now.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
The significance of those properties, Jack, obviously, is that stops
competitors from being able to get those properties therefore set
up a supermarket that would actually threaten right.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
Yeah, yeah, exactly, which is which I mean, which is
to my point, like, unless we're able to, Like, I
had no idea that they had quite that many properties,
and unless we are able to break it up somehow,
I'm not suggesting we can pulsorately acquire them or anything
like that, but you can you can see the depths
to which they have protected their You know that they
appear to have protected their industry and protected their patch,
(05:08):
and certainly you know it's going to take some unpicking
to try and to try and get those prices more competitive.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
Yeah, judging by the judging by the tone sayings of
the texts that I'm getting about the grocery commissioner, there's
a real vibe out there that he needs to do
something or bugger off a I feel like his reputations
on the line on this one.
Speaker 4 (05:25):
Well yeah, I mean it was a big call when
they brought them in many huge background.
Speaker 6 (05:28):
I mean, he's no mug, but you know you bringing
a you bring in these commissioners for a purpose.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
Yeah, So get busy, yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Too, Right, Okay, guys, we'll take a break. Come back
very shortly quarter.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Two The Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's international realty, unparalleled
reach and results.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Back with the Huddle, Jack Tay and the Mark Sainsbury sayings, So,
do you think the young couple who found the two
hundred and thirty thousand dollars in their ceiling should be
able to keep it?
Speaker 4 (05:53):
Yes? Yes, why because it's look there not dealers.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
They brought this in because they had so much sort
of trouble trying to, you know, mop up all these
sort of illicit gains. They bought the house in good faith,
they find the money in there, and no one can
actually track down who possibly left it there. I just
liked that, you think, Yeah, I think good on you.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
It's a bonus. Let them keep the money.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Yeah, they're not the ones who did anything wrong.
Speaker 5 (06:20):
What do you reckon, Jack, I reckon they should be
allowed to keep some of it. Now stick with me
on this theory. I think we need to encourage people
to hand in big sums of money when it came
when they're discovered by like this, because it's actually in
the interests of their safety. So, like, if the police
were to say, we're going to give this couple some
of that money, then if whoever left that money there
(06:44):
in the first place comes back looking for it, and
they came and confronted the couple, the couple can quite
reasonably say well, we didn't get to keep the money.
We just had to give it back to the police,
and let that's and let's you know, that be that.
But if they if the police announced that the couple
are keeping all of the money, then I think that
puts them. And if they say they're giving them none
(07:05):
of the money, then I think that distincentivises them from
handing it.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Okay, but let's just say it's the monkeys, which is
the most likely even maybe it's the monkeys, okay, who
put the money there?
Speaker 5 (07:17):
So I reckon it could be worse than the monkeys,
Like I reckon there are But did you.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
Read the story.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
The cops said that there was a beneficiary of the
trust who had connections to the mongrel mobs. So that
seems like that's the only connection. Okay, So let's say
it's the monkeys. But let's say it's somebody. Yeah, oh yeah, sorry,
thank you for something, thanks for covering ourself A no, no,
not not no anymore anyway. So jack, let's say that
we get we say to the young couple, you can
(07:43):
keep fifty k for yourself, right, you don't think the
monkeys are going to go look for that fifty k.
Speaker 5 (07:47):
No, no, no, police don't publicize it. So I think
the police say that they say we will give we
will give them a reward to thank them for their honesty.
And then and then if the couple is confronted by
the monkeys in the future, they can say the police
gave us two brand as opposed to saying, oh, the
police gave us a hundred grand I think by saying yes,
you get to keep all of the money, then that
(08:08):
puts them at risk. By saying no, you keep none
of the money, then that disincentivizes people in the future
from handing it in. By saying we'll give you some
of it and not announcing exactly how much they're going
to give them, that both makes them safer, angers them and.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
We see, okay, says I Reckon. I reckon.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
I love where Jack's going, but he's one hundred percent wrong.
You give them anything, and you announce that anything has
given to them, the moneys turn up, what do you
think you just got to take the money and run
to Australia.
Speaker 6 (08:33):
Well, they're going to turn up and want drug money. Yeah,
it might be a little bit of risk, but matter that's.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Sat there for so long.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Yeah, could have just been an old lady saying so,
couldn't it? Who just got weird and put it up
in the ceiling?
Speaker 4 (08:49):
Yeah? And what and you forgot?
Speaker 6 (08:52):
I mean, I know you and Barry like that bundles
of cash around the house. You forget what you got?
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Where he puts all the money in the ceiling? All
the time?
Speaker 6 (09:00):
Ordinary people like Jack and I we just never see
something like that.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Can you forget it? It's because you're old, It's because
you're old. VU Now, Jack, what do you make of
aut launching a tete a paper?
Speaker 4 (09:13):
I'm into it.
Speaker 5 (09:14):
And here's the reason, not because I want to study,
not because I want to study Taylor Swift, but because.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
This is a communications paper.
Speaker 5 (09:21):
And look, I'm the first to bang on universities and
say they're not preparing a young people for the future
properly with skills that are actually getting the job. But
if there is one industry that is doing extremely well
in our modern society, it is communications. And who can
deny that Taylor Swift isn't a communications master. So you
know what, if you want to enter that industry, you
want to get a relatively good salary and years to come. Communications,
if the last decade or two is anything to go by,
(09:43):
is a great place to be.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
So why not.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Yeah, I don't have a problem with it. What about
you saying?
Speaker 5 (09:46):
Zo?
Speaker 6 (09:47):
Yeah? No, Look, I think I think it's great. I
mean we've had courses on the Beatles. Who was a course?
Someone did their doctorate on the Dunedin Sound. You know,
there's there's there's all sorts of legitimate reasons, but she's
an advout phenomenon. And and as Jack says, it's about
the communications. How does the most successful artist on the planet.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
You know, communicate? Yeah, there's all sorts of lessons in there.
Good on them.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Yeah, Hey, guys, thank you, really appreciate it. Go and
enjoy your evening.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
That's Jack Tame, host of Saturday Morning's a Q and
A Mark Sainsbury broadcast. I'll tell you what, if you
are upset about a Tayta paper, you should see the
money that we give as a country to some of
the people and the stupid stuff that they study, and
you'll go, oh, aytay paper actually sounds quite good in
contrast to studying. I don't know, I can't even begin
(10:33):
to tell you, but the one of one of the
examples was employer provided houses and whether that makes you
like your house more or less.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
I mean, come on.
