that tourists injuring New Zealand will have one hundred dollars
added to their I assume.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
Airline to the airlines.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
Apparently it's thirty five dollars at the moment, so it
must be in the visa right and your visa right

The rage, all the rage, We'll give you the pole
results soon, but next on the show. Birds have been
trained to do something very smart. This has got crows
written all over it. I meet to know exactly what
kind of bird, but it's got crow energy.

Speaker 4 (03:18):
Plays Fleble and Haley All.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
Eyes have been on Paris this year with the Olympics
and the currently underway Paralympics.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
Yeah. You're watching some swimming last night.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
Yeah, Oh my god. It's insane, isn't it. It's amazing.
It's we were watching with the kids and I said,
I never want to hear I can't out of your
mouths again.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
Because look at that.

Speaker 1 (03:41):
Yeah, look at that. Yeah, it's incredible to watch. It's inspiring, inspiring.
There's a Mexican swimmer doesn't have any hands or feet.
One of his arms is sort of midway down the forearm. Gone, yeah,
and the other ones like above the elbow, one legs.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
Just yep. Can some better than you say it, dude,
no doubt about it.

Speaker 1 (04:04):
They did one hundred meters in a minute.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
No, they were flying. Yeah, right, what link to the pool?

Speaker 5 (04:12):
Was it?

Speaker 2 (04:12):
Two late hundred meters a minute twenty or something? Jeez? Flying? Yeah? Flying?

Speaker 1 (04:18):
So yeah, inspirational and France, I you were recently in Europe,
and I remember Haley saying as well, no one's vaping
over there. Everyone still, Dad, it's insane, Like you just
forget what cigarette smoke in public is like until until
you go to Europe. In France and Paris particularly, it's
a massive problem cigarette bets on the ground because they

(04:40):
made of a material that does not break down.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
Ciggies on the beach in New Zealand.

Speaker 1 (04:46):
Yeah, like when we told his kids like that, it's
a thousand years or something takes a breakdown. It's like
a plasticly synthetic thing. It would take forever to break down.
But the rest of the cigarette, the paper around it,
and of course the tobacco that'll dissolve real quick. But
the filters to keep all that horrendous chemicals out of
your lungs, they do a great job to the filter,

(05:08):
he said, sarcastically, last forever. So in twenty eighteen, a
Swedish startup said, we're training crows to pick up cigarette barts, okay,
And what happens is the crow picks up the cigarette
but puts it into the container. When it puts it
in the container, the door on the container next door
opens up and they get a peanut, it drops a
peanut white, like a vending machine, except instead of putting

(05:30):
in coins and getting out choky. Yeah, they're putting in
cigarette barts and they get a peanut. And they can
have as many peanuts as many cigarette buts as they can.
So the birds are going to be So that was
wanting the peanuts. And twenty eighteen there is an article
called is it ethical to train crows to pick up
cigarette barts?

Speaker 3 (05:47):
Well?

Speaker 1 (05:48):
Because you might be giving them some kind of cancer
from the cigarette like butts. The ethics of employing animals
to do our duty work? Is this cosmo? Not cosmo
like as in sealed section in the middle, what's wrong
with my vagina? A different cosmo? Okay? Is it is
it ethical to teach other animals to clean up our mess?

Speaker 2 (06:09):
I feel like birds? Yes, I'd probably have I'd probably
sleep better if it was pigeons doing it. Well, they're
not smart enough.

Speaker 1 (06:15):
The new Caledonian crow has the reasoning skills of a
seven year old human.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
What seven year old is well old enough to be
like do this? Get that?

Speaker 1 (06:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (06:25):
Like put that away? Get at it? Yeah? Okay, So
why the cliptose? Is that?

Speaker 1 (06:32):
Why magnis are cleptose, shiny things. They like things. Okay,
they're like, oh that thing lasts, I'll take it back.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
It's shiny. It makes me have right, I'll collect more
of them.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
So what, Paris has been doing this for a while. No,
Paris has just started, right, it was sweet. It was
a Swedish firm that started doing this and in Sweden. Yeah,
because they said they were really struggling with keeping cigarette
butts off the street.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (06:56):
Have they said how many have collected like since they've started. No, God,
you'd be there all day.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (07:02):
Well they said sixty two percent of all street letter
of cigarette barts, which is crazy. Yeah, they say using
this chrome methan could save them seventy five percent of
cigarette of street sweeping.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
God, it's not clearing of the rum.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
Yeah, but peanuts aren't cheap. You've got to nuts get
crow that peanuts.

Speaker 6 (07:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (07:21):
Yeah, So they're doing.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
It, so it's not the first time they've done it,
but currently are they're doing it in France. Then there
should be some sort of award system every tenth cigarette.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
But the crowing a.

Speaker 1 (07:31):
Little bit, maybe a macademia, a nicer nut shirt, nice honey,
roasted one of those skinny alm and chocolate coated.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
Yeah, those slaps, those are good. The slab.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
Those crows will have all those cigarettes clean up at
no time. But he now probably starts smoking so they
can trade on your own cigarettes form more delicious skinny
Armor's a vicious cycle.

Speaker 7 (07:53):
Yeah, plays Flint Thorne.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
And Hale Haley sick today?

Speaker 1 (07:59):
Spilling not good, maybe some food poisoning, who knows, who knows?

Speaker 2 (08:04):
Look, who knows? But warm hoob blood or bat on.

Speaker 1 (08:07):
Without a sorry? The word sorry, yeah does seem to
be the hardest word. Four and ten forty percent of us,
according to a study. This is from thousands of adults
in the UK, ages twenty to fifty. Yeah, forty percent
don't like apologizing because we think we're never wrong.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
Oh no, you said before I would be one of
these four people.

Speaker 1 (08:31):
I'm quick to apologize, quick unless you unless I'm right,
you're stick to my gun, and then you'll be stubborn
and I'm proven wrong.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
I will apologize. Yeah, that's fair, I think you do.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
We're also breaking it down nearly a fifty people eighteen
percent don't feel comfortable making an apology. Fifteen percent don't
like admitting when they're wrong, and you just got to
get you just got to get it done. You just
got to say it. You just got to get it
out out. Sorry about that, Yeah, but then something something
if you're wrong. Some people as well said they didn't

(09:05):
want to reignite the controversy by saying sorry, Like, if
you're arguing maybe with your partner, you don't want to
be like sorry, because then it's going to drag it
up again. Well, then that's that's bad if you are
saying if you're genuinely saying sorry, and they want to
start arguing about it again, so they're not moving on.
They just also love the stock images they've used for
this article. Couples turned away from each other would love

(09:28):
to hold a stock image shoot and be like, okay,
now we need you to look like really sad.

Speaker 2 (09:34):
Yeah, and this one on the park bench, you have
definitely done something wrong.

Speaker 1 (09:37):
And he was definitely liking an Instagram models. Yeah, this photo,
he's done something wrong. To pursue her office. If she's
got her arms crossed in a huffy fashion, she's having
a half, He's like, oh, she definitely doesn't deserve a half.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
I wouldn't want to be a stock image photo. You
could be got to conduct it? Are you charge?

Speaker 1 (09:58):
You want to be like okay now now yeah, yeah, yeah, okay,
now look like you're and beard. Now look like you've
let one off, but you're going to have to deny. Yeah,
well you can be like that. Who's that guy is
from Poland? The kind of the white old mate, the
old mate he's done a heap of stock images. Yes,

(10:20):
and he's kind of he's holding the cup and he's
like yes awkward smile.

Speaker 2 (10:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:25):
That and the couple where they're walking and he's looking
over his shoulder back at the other woman's dare a.

Speaker 2 (10:31):
Yeah, those of you.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
Two, how much you reckon? They were paid for that,
a couple of one hundred bucks for a day's work,
and then you become like the meme for everything for
the next ten years.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
Yeah. World's most famous stock images?

Speaker 1 (10:44):
Oh yeah, the corporate like laughing one where everyone's like, ye,
dress up like corporate. Be can tell they're not really
corporate people, doesn't jel Well yeah, yeah, okay, I'm just looking.
What makes a good stock photo model is racial ambiguity.
Even if you're white, they can't tell you what kind
of white you are all right, okay, yeah?

Speaker 2 (11:05):
Or brown? What kind of brown you are? What kind
of brown you are?

Speaker 1 (11:08):
Like? Look at this this woman here. I'm going to
cover her name because that gives it away, but look
at that. She could be from anywhere. Yeah, she could be.
She's Aground Rodriguez, so she's of Latin American descendis Spanish
or maybe Filipino, you don't know. She looks like she
could be from Asia. Because what more markets can use you,
more people can use it. I do love when a

(11:28):
business uses like obvious, obvious American stock images, like their
business in New Zealand, like those people are living here.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
It's definitely not silly.

Speaker 1 (11:37):
Little Pole is next on the show, Frozen Yogurt Place
is still cool.

Speaker 2 (11:42):
I mean, who doesn't love piling the lillies and the.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
Chocolate on the top of the broo our first date?

Speaker 8 (11:48):
Yes, it is so silly, silly, silly Frozen yogurt once

Yeah.

Speaker 1 (12:16):
Ten of frozen deliciousness with lollies on top, Yeah, twelve
years ago.

Speaker 2 (12:20):
Yeah, they kind of pomped up everywhere.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
I was never about the lollies on top, really, No,
that was the best bit. The lollies got too cold
and they got hard. I liked the yogurt. That's how
they got you. The y It's like packing mix lollies
they get here. You remember when the packing mix was
a big thing at the movies. Yep, and then that
kind of ended in't it? Because that to sell the bags? Now, Yeah,
but that they really got yuck. Yeah, they got your PIDs.

(12:44):
Are always put their hands, they were, Yeah, but they
got you. They added up you'd get a bag and
then they had to pay like eighteen bucks for it. Yeah,
because the price was per one hundred grams and that's
eight and it wasn't it wasn't.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
Frozen yogurt place is still cool.

Speaker 1 (12:58):
We asked you, sixty seven percent of you said no,
two one third said yes.

Speaker 2 (13:04):
Love them.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
Okay, I want to hear people. I'm gonna say it's
the price that's got people. Well, let's see.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
Okay. Monique says ice cream is so much yeammy than yogurt.
Couldn't agree more? Gelato agree more, Monique?

Speaker 1 (13:15):
You know, no ice cream, no gelato ice cream. I
feel like gelato places have popped up to replace frozen yoga.

Speaker 2 (13:23):
Probably and they'll soon go the same way. They just
it's not.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
Got as ice cream, absolutely not fat. So immediately she says,
yogat is a little bit disappointing. And then you get
the most basic pia lollies on top, and then you
have a mini hard attack of the counter when it's
like twenty five years yeah per pop, and then the
yogurt melts and yeah, yoga, You're like, then you're going to.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
Like lolly soup.

Speaker 1 (13:43):
Yeah, Danielle said, Were they ever cool? And do they
even still exist? The numbers have certainly dwindled.

Speaker 2 (13:49):
Yeah, they've dropped off, but they're still around.

Bree says, they were so cool the last years that
I was in high school or just out of high
school twenty thirteen, twenty fifteen.

Speaker 2 (14:37):
Don't think much from that time is still cool.

Speaker 1 (14:41):
You remember we had a card with like loaded up
with like hundreds of dollars of the credit to frozen yogurt.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
Cardly put ad internet five hundred dollars. It was insane.

The first time I went, maybe the first of only
three times that I tried to put a interinet, I
paid for a families in front of me. I said
I got this, and this family was very fused. Yeah,
and I paid for their frozen yogurt and they're like,

gen alphas love them. They probably are cool. And this
forty nine year old has no idea.

Right, maybe it's gone full circle back for the genity.
Your kids like, they're just.

Speaker 1 (15:28):
Like frozen treats, just like anything anything, Okay, but they
probably get ice cream over frozen yogurt. And wait till
the lollies. You wait till they start going out on

Speaker 1 (17:14):
Okay, cool, no delicious, Yes, says Lauren and Lauren another
Lauren lots and Lauren's listening to the show yep, who

Speaker 1 (17:29):
Everyone's allergic to deal, everyone's allergic to interesting, everyone's.

Speaker 2 (17:35):

But they they do a dairy free yogura, don't they

Speaker 2 (17:41):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (17:41):
Great flavors, vegan friendly, amazing experience, vegan friendly okay, so
that in the case to me, there's not a.

Speaker 2 (17:46):
Lot of dairy no going on there.

Speaker 1 (17:50):
I don't know anyway, it says that maybe the time
of the froyo is.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
It's Yeah, it seems like it's still go play, m
split play.

Speaker 1 (18:04):
Well. We have long talked about this. In fact, we
ran a very scientific experiment on the show a couple
of years ago, yep, about about gutters. Gutters was the
topic that we said none of us had done anything about.
But this is because an experiment to test that Facebook's

(18:24):
listening to us. Yeah, that none of us at that
time had googled, although soon after drawn in by the.

Speaker 2 (18:31):
Advertising, I didn't replace my others.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
We talked about this on it and your listeners were
messaging in, I've got ads, already got ads.

Speaker 2 (18:38):
We timed it.

Speaker 1 (18:39):
I think I think it was fifteen or twenty minutes.
Was the first person that since we talked about it
and their phone was with them and they were listening
to the radio that they got to target ad for
gutters on one of the social media services. And for ever,
Facebook have come out and said, no, it's because people
are googling it. Your friends are googling it and you're
hanging out with your friends, and that you need your friends,

(19:01):
and that's why they're you're getting ads. Yeah, they've always
denied it. Yeah, if you're not, but there's an old saying,
if you're not paying for the product, you are the
product you are. Yeah, so you're getting these things for
free so that you can be advertised too well. A
news article has come out with a leak a pitch deck,
which is like a presentation. It's like a pitch presentation

(19:24):
for a media company CONX Media Group, and it claims
that it's active listening software uses AI to collect and
analyze real time intent data by listening to what you
say through your phone, laptop, or home assistant microphone. So
if you've got Alexis, you've got an iPad somewhere or
a laptop. Yeah, they're listening to everything.

Speaker 2 (19:46):
Alexa listening the whole time.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
I thought there was a massive lawsuit a couple of
years ago where Alexa wasn't a ladd listen all the
time now or they're not allowed to collect what they're
listening to all the time, saladus.

Speaker 2 (19:57):
I don't know, but yeah.

Speaker 1 (20:00):
Pitch goes on to tout Facebook, Google and Amazon as
clients of this media group. So I mean it's more yeah,
more evidence that they are listening. We shan't be surprised
by this. If they have the technology, they will use it.
Just is what the slide says. Number one, consumers leave

(20:21):
a data trail based on their conversations and online behavior.
It's creepy when they say it, like that, isn't it?
And a data trail AI colleagues and analyzes this behavioral
and voice data from four hundred and seventy plus sources.

Speaker 2 (20:36):
Yikes.

Speaker 1 (20:37):
Well, I even remember the one card, those those cards,
those loyalty cards that Marcus can work things out about
you before you can worked out there. There was teenage
girl was pregnant. That was overseas in America. I think
it was the roof. Yes, actually was because they yea,
they analyze you spending and what you're buying.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
Yeah, it's crazy, and then they start targeting with stuff.
But this lets happened to me last week.

Speaker 1 (21:01):
I forget what we were talking about something, and I
got an AD for it like ten minutes later. I
was like, of course, right, didn't google anything we were
talking yesterday. It was in a chat so it was written,
so I got it. I don't know if that's different.
It was a little bit different. But we were talking
about something I'd never talked about before. Yeah, and within
like the day, members of that chat group were getting

(21:23):
art about the It was about a sort of a car.
Some guy had taken two rare cars and like mangled
them together. Check I've ever talked about it, an R
thirty two or something. I don't even remember. More than
a day, everybody's getting hey buy this print of an
R thirty two in the sunset and something that was
just like the Yeah, they didn't even wait, no, they
didn't even give it a cooling down period, like at

(21:44):
least give it a day or two. Give it a
day or two so I could be like, what is
an R thirty two? Yeah, so I would be like,
what were they talking about?

Speaker 2 (21:52):
I google and learn more. But no, they didn't even

Before you get married? You should travel? There's three things

Is it one? Get a pit? Is it? Living with
your suffer a significant loss?

I've never heard that go through a loss. Can't just
can go through to see how they handle handle loss? Right,
So I guess you could get the dog and then
lose baby, and then you'll be like you've passed the test,
and wait, did you kill the dog?

Speaker 2 (26:15):
And you're like yes, Well.

Speaker 1 (26:16):
Therapists have kind of recommended about the six to seven
month mark is when you should wait to take a
major holiday. That's not like going away for a weekend
to the Corimandel, Queenstown or something like that. Maybe it
depends how I'd say. You've got to travel significantly to
get there. You've got to be longer than a weekend.
You've got to have a long haul flight to really

(26:37):
test the grumpiness. Yeah yeah, standing in cues.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
Let's make the rule.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
You've got to go at least go somewhere with a
different currency.

Speaker 2 (26:44):
Yeah, yeah, okay, I like that.

Speaker 1 (26:46):
Yeah, the islands are relaxing because I say you can
use New Zealand currency in some of the islands and
some are some are and Time you you were about
eight seven or eight months eight months yea, And you.

Speaker 2 (26:58):
Went to time Land in two thousand and five post tsunami.

Speaker 1 (27:02):
That was only because everything was half price post tsunami.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
Fantastic. Vaughden loves a I love special, a disaster special. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (27:12):
Yeah, it's bad, but it's good. So first major you've
been on weekends away though, you've been Yeah, now, well
we all went with a kind of a work road
trip around New Zealand, yep, And that would have been
like three or four months in.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
And then but then there.

Speaker 1 (27:29):
Was a group of people there. Yep, so no, but
no major stresses or anything. I don't recall any major stresses. Okay, yeah,
stated a couple of real shit hotels. That was like,
but then it was in the honeymoon period, so we
didn't blame each other.

Speaker 2 (27:45):
We bonded together.

Speaker 1 (27:46):
Yeah, right, to be like, all you've got to do
is get through this one night before we go to
the island.

Speaker 2 (27:50):
Because that is the other thing.

Speaker 1 (27:51):
You're in a honeymoon period expression, and you know, you
know how each other work, but you're definitely in a
honeymoon period. You're not annoying each other. No, no, but
maybe it's crooked to blame somebody when something goes wrong,
but maybe by that stage you are. And that's what
we wanted to ask this morning. How bad was the
first couple's holiday. Maybe you're not together now because of it? Yeah,

(28:12):
I mean no one is calling up saying it was terrible,
but they're still together like five years later, right, No,
because they could have had a terrible experience, They could
have had a really bad trip their first couples away,
but it may have pushed them together.

Speaker 2 (28:26):
But the trip itself was bad. Yeah. Yeah, but I.

Speaker 1 (28:29):
Want to hear those stories because I mean, having just
gone on holiday recently seeing that I saw so many
couples fighting and you could see, like Cole, you know,
they weren't talking to each other, and you were just like, well,
how are.

Speaker 2 (28:40):
They going to last?

Speaker 1 (28:42):
Yeah, like they're on holiday, they're not enjoying it having
a big fight.

Speaker 2 (28:46):
I do love seeing and beautiful occasion.

Speaker 1 (28:48):
I know.

Speaker 2 (28:49):
It's yeah, gorgeous beach club in Barley.

Speaker 1 (28:53):
We have paid to get it, and you're the one
you have to go down the gondolea to get to.

Speaker 2 (28:56):
Yeah, lovely.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
And then there's people parading around and the g strings
right at the butt. And then I'm just like, oh,
don't look for that too long. And then you hear
a couple of seats down, some guys getting absolutely torn bits.

Speaker 2 (29:09):
We'll look at what am I supposed to do?

Speaker 1 (29:13):
Yeah, but you have people fighting in these beautiful locations. Yeah,
it's like look up, yeah, but look up, look up?
Wait did you guys see that? But we should all
be happy that we all got to see that butt
a shared experience. Well, whether it was a fight over
abut or what, how bad was your first couple's holiday?
Maybe it ended your relationship, Maybe you were overseas. Some
are amazing after only a few months into a relationship

(29:36):
and it didn't work out play and Haley psych COLLEGEIUSS
therapist just therapy therapists. Six to seven months the ideal
time for your first big overseas holiday as a couple
to get in together Yep, exclusively, yep, not just kind

(29:57):
of hooking up.

Speaker 2 (29:58):
Can you say, will you be my boy friend? Well,
when you you're my girlfriend, that's official. Will you go
around with me? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (30:05):

Speaker 2 (30:11):
So we wore. Don't know how bad was your first
couple's holiday?

Speaker 3 (30:14):
You know what?

Speaker 2 (30:14):
Some nice ones coming through.

Speaker 1 (30:17):
Nice stories. I want a happy story. Well you take
the good with the bad. My my now wife and
I went to Melbourne in twenty seventeen after only dating
for a year. During her time there, I proposed her
at the Melbourne Cup. Nothing's more romantic than watching horses
get the ship bed out of them running over a
few hundred meters. You know, romance, it's not even seeing
a horse because you've had too many. Yeah, the alvino

(30:39):
did flow, she said, yes, So I guess that's a
successful first their first trip away, he proposed it's cool, yeah, okay,
first holiday five months and went to the Coramandel. Partner
got gastro oh, hiding from those sounds in a small.

Speaker 2 (30:56):
Never sent him second to this day, but was still together.

Speaker 1 (30:59):
That's says matters worse, and that also says a lot
about this person.

Speaker 2 (31:03):
That's message done.

Speaker 1 (31:05):
Yeah, they have the sort of caring nature that, rather
than being completely gross out because I'm obviously are you okay.

Speaker 2 (31:11):
I would have got a whole nother Airbnb and just
left them there. God, no one's should make that noise. Yeah, look,
we've all seen a sea lion in there.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
Currently. Why Haley's not here with us this morning because
she's having a sea lion on a shower for My
girlfriend of six months ended up hooking up with the
Italian concierge at our hotel.

Speaker 2 (31:36):
Oh my god, that's like an episode of White Lotus
or something. Yeah, I love it.

Speaker 1 (31:40):
He didn't get a tip from me, but he gave
a tip to her. Now I must know that that's good.

Speaker 2 (31:45):
Good from you. So it's Italian, So they're hot. This
is a problem.

Speaker 1 (31:49):
So don't take your new partner somewhere where everyone's hot,
take them to a manga country, like we won't say
a certain country, whatever country. Yeah, yeah, work up in
the middle of the night to an empty bed on
our first trip overseas. Turns out he went out to
meet out with some random fire and a girl and
found on the map.

Speaker 2 (32:08):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (32:09):
See, this is a problem with overseas holidays is you
quite often have to book them out in advance. So
if you're with someone and then they get cold feet
or they're not into it, they might just be staying
with you for the holiday.

Speaker 2 (32:20):
Yeah, this doesn't sound like that.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
That just shot that message and the one before the
Italian one. I want to know if these people could
text me back. Did they fly back together on the
same flight next to each other interesting or separate seats
or just own way home?

Speaker 2 (32:36):
Yeah, and also sees my good friend of six months
and it doesn't say they broke up.

Speaker 1 (32:42):
I've been a safe went to the Gold Coast with
my boyfriend at the time. The flight was okay, then
we got there. When we got there like, we'd planned
to do all the parks and stuff, but it kept
complaining it was too hot and he didn't want to
do anything.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
And then on holiday he brought he bought, he purchased
on holiday.

Speaker 1 (32:59):
He bring with him a Nintendo Switch and then went
into the room and proceeded to just play that the
entire time we were there during New Years and didn't
even start to bring in the New Year. He played
Nintendo Switch and then went to sleep. That's and that's
tick started with former boyfriend former Yeah, yeah, yeah, I
tell you why bother goes says a lot for the
Nintendo Switch, though, does it it really sells? Okay, my

(33:23):
now ex boyfriend discovered his sexuality at a certain club
in Berlin, and then good for him? Wow, okay, good
for him? Okay, and then what happened? I need what
happened after.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
They broke into now did they can't provide what he needs?

Speaker 5 (33:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (33:38):
I know, but what what did they?

Speaker 1 (33:41):
Did? He just stay there and I don't have those
we can make it up, I mean Berlin. Well okay,
so they just said he loves the d We kind
of threw the conclusion. Did he stay in Berlin? Did
he come home?

Speaker 2 (33:53):
Yeap? Where is he now? Few more details?

Speaker 3 (33:57):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (33:57):
Have you got a phone number or a picture top
or bottom? Just kids, We've got friends with a lot
of friends. Would be interesting. Just really paint the picture
of them. Two months and now he came home. He's
a power bottom. Okay, great, now we know we were
his signs. It was, there were because that's the thing

(34:19):
when the man is at the woman and it comes
out and he's the he's the bottom half.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
There were signs.

Speaker 1 (34:24):
They were probably you might not have seen signs. Everyone
else the signs about.

Speaker 2 (34:31):
That's what that song is about.

Speaker 1 (34:33):
Two months and booked a trip to Bali. I did
one of those quick turnarounds. I booked a trip for
a few weeks time. Oh okay, I remember those days
when you can't do that, and I didn't cost you.
Literally am in the league. Yeah, a lot about each other.
Both got Bari Barley belly at the same time.

Speaker 2 (34:49):
Yeah, same time. Well at least you're both in the
same boat.

Speaker 1 (34:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (34:54):
I don't know who's going out to get there.

Speaker 1 (34:57):
You get into everything. Yeah, we had the best time.
It was we went in the honeymoon phase. Yeah, when
our annoying tendencies were still cute and didn't drive each
other up the wall.

Speaker 2 (35:07):
Yeah, and now what you just hate each other, But yeah,
deal with it.

Speaker 1 (35:10):
I didn't end our relationship, but it might have been
because of the but it might have been because of
the outcome of my crazy I went back to the
UK with my English boyfriend for Christmas. It was a
year and it was my first long haul flight experience,
and I was terrified, terrified of getting deep vein from bosis,
so much so that when I noticed I had a
swollen ankles as we flew out of Frankfurt, I freaked

(35:31):
out and got put in the back of the plane.
The panicking and duce vomiting. So then I was vomiting
everywhere in the back of the plane. Something happened on
the way home and I was hospitalized. He was not sympathetic. No,
I found out I was pregnant the whole time, not dying. Wow, okay,
an adventure.

Speaker 2 (35:51):
What I horrible about story?

Speaker 1 (35:54):
It was so terrible to great way to find out
the person you're about to have a baby with us.
It's sympathetic to your pain. Yeah, and you're pregnant. Yeah
a great into the holiday play play well, he joins
us in studio. Bad news, Brad? Is it all bad news?

Speaker 2 (36:18):
Brad?

Speaker 3 (36:19):
No, I think it's I think we're getting better.

Speaker 1 (36:20):
Oh, now, what's your official title again?

Speaker 2 (36:23):
I can never remember.

Speaker 9 (36:25):
Economists, chief executive and principal economists. I just try and
double up on them, you know. Yeah at Informetrics, he's
the one.

Speaker 1 (36:31):
Now we'll always seeing you on the TV with you know,
your takes on the economy. Who's your favorite people to
talk to you? You've got a real good chemistry with
Jeremy and Hell.

Speaker 3 (36:43):
I was going to say the flip.

Speaker 9 (36:49):
Radio wise, okay, normally with Itally I'm talking to myself
into a big camera somewhere down in Wellington. So honestly,
I mean, I feel like it's a bit vain to
say myself, but that.

Speaker 3 (36:57):
Seems to me the norm.

Speaker 1 (36:58):
Now, if Hailey was here today because she's at homesick,
if Hailey was here today, she'd she would probably say
something along the lines of you told me to fix
my mortgage for a year and it's gone down.

Speaker 3 (37:11):
Yeah, look I'm not I'm not gonna lie.

Speaker 1 (37:12):
When I came in and we said six months, I
thought we all agreed. It was as we were keeping
on the month.

Speaker 9 (37:16):
Last time I came and I do think I said
that a lot more people were fixing it six months.

Speaker 3 (37:21):
Remember, guys, I never give the efficient.

Speaker 9 (37:24):
Say, but a lot more people were we were seeing
about twenty percent or so of kiwis that were fixing
for six months, and that was an anticipation of interest
rates being cut now. To be honest, I didn't think
it was going to happen this quick. I'm glad that
it has, but I didn't think it would. But then
a couple of weeks ago, Reserve Bank came out and
they said, you know, enough's enough. The economy looks pretty
pretty challenging at the moment, so let's bring those interest

(37:45):
rates down. First time we've had a cut in a
couple of years. Still high, but paints the direction for
where interest rates are going. So you're starting to see
those things fall down.

Speaker 1 (37:53):
Who is it the most challenging for the economy as
it stands The young people?

Speaker 2 (37:58):
Young people first time, by yeah, Well, I.

Speaker 3 (38:01):
Think it's sort of in two ways.

Speaker 9 (38:02):
So for the likes of your young people, you're seeing
the unemployment are still going up. Two thirds of the
increase in unemployment so far over the last year has
been for under thirties, So you know, it's.

Speaker 3 (38:12):
It's just look as a young person, you.

Speaker 1 (38:14):
Know, and what study yesterday was like nineteen percent of
young people don't There was no, hope. Oh jeez, Well,
like for their prospects, like job prospects or something like that.

Speaker 2 (38:27):
I forget what it was.

Speaker 3 (38:28):
It is more challenging.

Speaker 9 (38:29):
I mean the challenge they're right is that if you're
a business and you're struggling on costs and you're having
to start to let some people go, do you keep
the person with twenty years experience or no experience? Now,
generally businesses will keep their experience. But I must say,
in this day and age, when digital technology and that
is all important, who do you want on staff to
get you in the future.

Speaker 2 (38:48):
No, you want a new innovative young people.

Speaker 1 (38:53):
With their bigger fonts on their screens so they can
see their clips on their keypad, like the consot asked
how to connect to the Wi Fi.

Speaker 9 (39:02):
I think though, I think the other you're right though
as well about the first time bars, you know, like
people who are at the moment still on some pretty
big interest rates. Yeah, they're coming down, but they're not
coming down sort of super swiftly. Like I think they've
come down about thirty forty basis points zero point four
percentage points on the one year rate of the last
month or two. So that's something but again takes a

(39:22):
little while for it to come in. I think we've
probably got another for a lot of people, they've probably
still got six to nine months on average before they
start to come down onto that lower interest rate.

Speaker 3 (39:30):
We do think they keep falling.

Speaker 9 (39:32):
We think that, you know, the official cashrat will be
cut for the rest of this year, every sort of
meeting will be There's another one in October, there's another
one in November. Cuts for both of those of the
forecast cut in every meeting from February till June or
so next year. But I still think it's going to
be one of those things that people People are in
a tough position at the moment, but they're starting to
see a bit more light. And because of that, you've

(39:54):
seen the highest business confidence in a decade. So they's
actually coming through.

Speaker 2 (39:59):
And what about the supermarket things getting a bit cheaper.

Speaker 9 (40:02):
Yeah, well, I mean it depends on what you're buying,
but yeah, you're definitely seeing some better options coming through there.
The likes of some of your produce has actually come
down attached still some things that you've got to be
a bit careful about. We were looking the other day,
I think it was olive oils up like eighty eighty
eight percent or something silly from a couple of years ago.

Speaker 1 (40:18):
So you know, we all sign overrated oil. What's what's
what's going? It's good for your health? Oh yeah, card
oil for salads. And I never cooked with olive oil.
Never heat olive that's yeah.

Speaker 3 (40:32):
Can we get like a cooking show episode? Please rice on.

Speaker 1 (40:35):
A Rice brand guy? When it comes to the high
smoke point, doesn't burn? Doesn't Okay?

Speaker 9 (40:40):
Do any of us actually know about this high smoke
point thing? Like I never tried to just put it
on the pandic.

Speaker 2 (40:46):
Never olive oil. Please changes it?

Speaker 9 (40:49):
The other the other two that you still should be
a little bit cautious about buying dried apricots.

Speaker 2 (40:56):
Problem for me, I'm not.

Speaker 1 (40:57):
I'm not.

Speaker 2 (40:58):
I'm not a dried apricot person. I'm not a try
everyone's guy either. Yeah, because there's still a bit dacy dates.

Speaker 3 (41:06):
Yeah, I don't know how to get days. Oh you
mean the fruit.

Speaker 2 (41:11):
Bread.

Speaker 9 (41:13):
Sorry they took the tone down, but didn't its Yeah?

Speaker 2 (41:17):
What what else? Economy wise?

Speaker 9 (41:20):
Oh, I mean at the moment, there's I think we're
all sort of just waiting for how quickly those interest
rates come through. But also a little bit like how
quickly it to fix the housing market. We all know
how much Kiwis love to talk about the housing market.
We either want to buy it cheap or want it
to go up once we've got a house so that
we make more money in that. We're starting to see
a little bit more some of the numbers out recently
suggested people are looking at houses a bit more so

(41:40):
hate some options out there.

Speaker 1 (41:42):
What about rents for those that don't own, Are they
going to come down because interest rates are coming down?

Speaker 2 (41:48):
Rents never go down, right.

Speaker 9 (41:49):
Well, rents don't come down because of interest rates. That's
for I remember, you know in the last couple of
years you talk to your landlord and that, and people
are like, oh, well interest rate's gone up, so I
must put your rent up. I'm like, but when interest
rates went down and twenty during the pandemic, you did
drop my rent, So like, come on, fear is fear? Yeah,
but I think what you asked doning to see, Like,
Wellington's an interesting example. Obviously, there's been a lot of
job cuts and a lot of people, a lot of

(42:11):
young people hitting overseas. But what it's meant is that
there's a lot of people who are leaving their rentals
not as many people coming in to fill them. So
actually the rents are going down or moving sideways in
Wellington because there's a bit more competition.

Speaker 2 (42:22):
Right, there's a bit more space, right, So as you.

Speaker 9 (42:26):
Start to get the more houses, you know, we've built
a lot of houses the last couple of years, and
I think as you get more of those sort of
coming online, as those interest rates are dropping, I think
if you're someone who's got a house and you want
to be a landlord, you're having to be a lot
more cutthroat with who's actually coming in because you need
someone to help pay your mortgage, to help with that
cash though, and at the moment there's sort of slimmer
pickings them before, so maybe a little bit more opportunity

(42:48):
to maybe don't pay less rent, maybe get a nicer house.

Speaker 1 (42:51):
Though, what about people who were maybe in the position
where they're thinking, I've got enough equity in my house
or a bit of cash, I'm going to buy a rental.
It doesn't seem to be the good investment that it
once was.

Speaker 9 (43:03):
Not well, yeah, not not nearly as much as it
was previous. I mean, previously you were making more money
as a house than if you're made out of flesh
and bones, right, so that.

Speaker 1 (43:11):
Has to become a house. But it's a parent it's impossible.
You didn't try the transformers. Yeah, you didn't believe in yourself.
It's very hard to get a family inside of me
to you know.

Speaker 2 (43:21):
Look.

Speaker 1 (43:22):
Yeah, and I'm poorly insulated. I don't meet You're not
double glass. I'm not double glass.

Speaker 2 (43:29):
Yeah, it's drafty, it's yeah.

Speaker 1 (43:31):
So I'm not healthy homes complied, not at all? What
should what would people be better to invest than?

Speaker 3 (43:37):
Now?

Speaker 1 (43:38):
Well, I mean, like at the moment, right, if you're
a farming I'll just jump in here. I've got an
ideal for you, vaorn Ostrich farmingigs.

Speaker 3 (43:46):
You can make a lot of omelets with that sort
of That's what I'm hoping.

Speaker 9 (43:49):
But I mean, if your investment properly, you're probably even
a chuck in a couple hundred bucks a week to
make that like viable and repay the bank. So like,
if you're trying to make an investment return but you're
having to give away cash every week, you're probably a
bit of a loss. I mean, at the moment, it's interesting, right,
and I've been fascinated a lot of friends that started
coming to me and sort of say, hey, I was
putting my money into a term deposit, you know, because
I want a bit of interest. But you know, interest

(44:10):
rates coming down, so that's not good for savers. It
means you start to make less money on those fronts
as well, So people are casting around a bit. Everyone's
still a little bit shaky on the stop market. Was
it two weeks ago that the market sort of dropped
suddenly and everyone's like alarm bells. You know, Japan's looking weird,
the US is looking weird. Where do we put our money?
So a little bit more caution. I think out there
people are considering their options. But I think if you're

(44:32):
in the long term, in it for the long term,
that's probably your better option. If you're looking for a
get rich quick scheme. I feel like everyone's got a
great idea ostridge farming pets, but I don't know if
it happens quite as quickly.

Speaker 1 (44:44):
Okay, easy come, easy go. So that's a glamor of
hype from bad news brains.

Speaker 9 (44:49):
I think we see light at the end of the
economic tunnel. I think there are those greeners shoots starting
to emerge. I'm a bit more confident about next year,
and I think next year we'll be able to say, look,
we are through the worst of it. We're starting to
see some of their actual better activity. I'm not going
to say it's going to be you know that we're
firing away, because that's sort of how we got ourselves
into this place.

Speaker 3 (45:05):
But hey, some better news to come.

Speaker 2 (45:07):
Ho's your Bird of the Year.

Speaker 9 (45:10):
I haven't looked yet. Who are you gonna You're gonna
try it on and tell me who I need to
vote for?

obvious when you've got a pin sticking out of your
T shirt. It's in my pocket, a special pocket, okay, right, yeah, yeah,
you don't think.

Speaker 2 (48:26):
That they'd be trained to look for pins sticking out

Speaker 1 (48:36):
No, it looks at a nice It looks like that
nice pin I've got somewhere.

Speaker 2 (48:38):
Okay, yeah, Oh okay. Here's some other spy gear. Okay.

Speaker 1 (48:43):
It's a hair brush and you take the top off
and you can hide money in it. Okay, right, a
retro pirate telescope yepkay, what for pirate spots? Not very
discreete anymore. There's a camera detector.

Speaker 2 (48:59):
Oh okay, five dollars eighty seven.

Speaker 1 (49:01):
You can buy what is described as a hotel hidden
camera detector and you put it on and it will
make the lens like see. That could be good for
the airbnbs because sometimes you wonder if the airbnb hosts
seven a perve. Yeah, there's lots of neat little spy gedgets.
Most of them are just places to hide things to hide, right, Okay,
Like there's lots of hair brushes or fake water bottles

(49:22):
or fake bottoms, and so you can hide money, money,
or sharpies that aren't even sharpies. You take the end
of well they are a functioning sharpie, but only in
the nib, and then you put it out and you
can wile okay, money, money, whatever you hide in there.

Speaker 7 (49:38):
Fletch, Vorn and Haley.

Speaker 1 (49:40):
Now, I know we talked about this a while ago
when it was rumored to be a feature. The new
iOS eighteen on Apple phones is released soon. But the
beta do you say beta or beta? The beta, the
beta version, beta, the public beta.

Speaker 2 (49:55):
You can download this.

Speaker 1 (49:56):
So I downloaded it last night on my phone just
because I wanted. There's like some new watch features as
well that you can use, YadA, YadA. But what one
of the features that people think could be maybe causing
a few issues in relationships is the fact that you
will now be able to lock apps with your face
or individual apps.

Speaker 2 (50:17):
Yes, and so I was.

Speaker 1 (50:19):
Like, oh, I'm gonna I'm going to lock my banking
apps because then if I lost my phone and someone
could get into it with my pen because you know,
quite often.

Speaker 2 (50:27):
My banking apps are all.

Speaker 1 (50:29):
Ready fair minor already face but and there's like apps.
I was like, well, I'll just lock those and if
you want to access your saved password list, that's a
face online, that's a face on. But you're saying a
Facebook Messenger, yes, could be face locked. So if you
were getting messages and you had that thing where it
says you know, because you can can turn off your preview, yes,
so it there's new message, but it doesn't say any
of the details, so it's from or whatever. And then

(50:50):
your partner tries to unlock it and they can't. They
can't because they don't have your face and you can't
use it. You can't use their pin code if you
know it, because there's no there's no convining that. So yeah,
for if you facelock like Messenger, it will just come
up with a notification that you have a new message.
It doesn't preview the message anymore. And you can also

(51:12):
lock your photo album. You can lock any app on
your phone now. I think Android you have been able
to do this with third party apps. If you download
another app, it will let you then do it. You
could like hide it and maybe locked folders good, but yeah,
this is pretty crazy. It means you can lock. But
also good for parents as well, because then you if
you don't want your kids going on your photo album,

(51:32):
you could face that.

Speaker 2 (51:34):
Well, you could face lot your.

Speaker 1 (51:34):
Banking, so you can it all apart from steal money
from as they want to use.

Speaker 2 (51:39):
Yeah, any app.

Speaker 1 (51:40):
I mean you could lock the Herald app, the News
app if you wanted to. It's kind of good. It's
a good feature. It's a good feature. There's devious intent,
there's Yeah, it's in case somebody got a whold of
your phone, right, people will use it for divis, Yeah,
because there's been cases like you know, people might be
on a train or a bus and see someone put
in their pin code and then steal their phone. Yeah,

(52:01):
and they've got their pink code, which chance start that's
their pink code for everything exactly, whereas if you've got
your face on your important apps. Yeah, what else? What
other features is this new? I always have anything? Was mentioning,
not really new emojis, just some you know, new things
you can do, some color schemes and all that kind
of stuff. Yeah, but I mean that's going to cause

(52:22):
some relationship arguments, isn't it. Why have you locked messenger?
Yeah exactly, Terry, what are you hiding? Yeah, who's messaging?

Speaker 2 (52:30):
You? Show me open it now? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (52:32):
Sure, you come and look in the boys chat where
we're all just sending each other AI generated images of silicas.

have given some short my number one parenting hack. And
people I tell us too are like, that's all it
takes to get a week in sleeping as you make
them a lunch the night before, a lunch breakfast. Okay,
so you make them a lunch box and you say
in the morning when you get up, turn on the Telly. Yeah,
lunches and the specially marked container and the fruit.

Speaker 10 (54:09):
Ye.

Speaker 1 (54:09):
It's also exciting if that just around. You've also got
to be able I do every now and then realize
how lucky I was to have two daughters who weren't maniacs. Yeah,
because I've got nephews that you could because imagine having
two sons. Yeah, you come out and you're like, how
the hell is the a zebra in the lamb? Yeah?
And why are you holding the skill? Sort and put
that down? And where's your brother's legs? Yeah, so they

(54:33):
were relaxed, so there was sort of kids you could
trust to get up. Yeah, like tiredly stumbled the French
grabbed their little lunch boxes and you'd sleep.

Speaker 2 (54:42):
And then you get an extra hour and a bit sleep.
And also you did say you come up, season, wake
me up. I'll smack here.

You're going to get sacked and thrown straight back on
this the real eighties parenting. Yeah, you've got just sprinkle
in the eighties parenting. Yeah, so we were in parenting
hacks of those listening, so it can be something a
parenting hack shortcut that your parents took. Maybe it was
just leave you at home with all the food and
they went out to the casino. These laws against that. Yeah,

(55:11):

We're talking about your parenting hacks. Getting your kids dressed
the night before. It's lazy parenting hacks. Yeah, lazy. A
celebrity that's gone viral for dressing her kid the night
before school and school clothes and then just is wake up,
go to school, get the car.

Speaker 2 (55:58):
Genius. That's a man and not all that uncommon. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (56:02):
Some messages in from people who have done the same thing. Okay,
and they said when they're little, yeah they don't. You
just get them out and they're already dressed and where
you go. Sometimes they said, in want you can even
put the socks on them. It's kind of like making
you lunch the night before in the fridge and then
you just pop it out in the morning.

Speaker 2 (56:17):
You're ready to go.

Speaker 1 (56:18):
It's ready to go. Yeah, love it, Rachel. What is
your lazy parenting hack.

Speaker 5 (56:23):
My lazy parenting hack is I will tell the kids
that when I wake up in the weekend, we're going
to clean the house. So they let me sleep in
because they don't want to get up in their house.

Speaker 2 (56:34):
Oh my god, that is genius. You need some kind
of a ward for that.

Speaker 5 (56:39):
I'm just far too lazy, honestly, I want to sleep in.

Speaker 1 (56:43):
Yeah, so when you get up, do you actually clean?
So they know it's not an empty threat.

Speaker 5 (56:47):
Or absolutely, I use it spearingly. I don't use it
all the time.

Speaker 2 (56:54):
On rotate Otherwise they say it as smart, not absolutely.
I love the psychological manipulation in the life the lies.

Speaker 1 (57:00):
It's definitely won't require a therapist. Love it, Rachel, Thank you,

Long time listener, first time.

Speaker 2 (57:18):
Caller, Yeah, welcome, Welcome to the show.

Speaker 5 (57:24):
So I have a little bit of a story. This
isn't necessarily my parenting hair, but what my parents.

Speaker 6 (57:28):
Did with me and my sister. Okay, so when we
were kids, they owned their own automotive workshops, and.

Speaker 5 (57:39):
Essentially to keep us out of the way, especially as babies,
they would sit us in one of those.

Speaker 6 (57:44):
Wheeled activity center things.

Speaker 2 (57:46):
Yeah, like a baby looking yeah.

Speaker 4 (57:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (57:49):
They set us in one of those and would tie
us to the dumpster and so we could only walk
essentially half circles half.

Speaker 2 (57:57):
Moon, kind of like when you tie up a goat
so it can only eat that. I'm probably doing this
on my lawn. Is it too weak? Tomorrow? The go
to do our hard yards.

Speaker 1 (58:07):
Yeah, so they knew where we were, they could say.

Speaker 6 (58:09):
Us that would couldn't get.

Speaker 1 (58:10):
In the way.

Speaker 2 (58:11):
I love that.

Speaker 1 (58:12):
What year would this have been? Because it's got a
real eighties feel to it. But you sound too young.

Speaker 6 (58:17):
Well I was born ninety two, so okay, like mid
late nineties.

Speaker 2 (58:22):
Okay, rural?

Speaker 3 (58:23):
That rural.

Speaker 2 (58:23):
What part of New Zealand did you grow up in was?

Speaker 6 (58:26):
So I actually grew up in Australia.

Speaker 2 (58:28):
Oh yeah, I go that. That's perfect.

Speaker 1 (58:30):
So that's brilliant. Snakes and stuff out there, our you
of snakes. Yeah, dingoes.

Speaker 2 (58:36):
Also that was pretty freih in the memory of.

Speaker 1 (58:38):
The of the nation there Chantal, thank you so much.
And Julia, good morning. What what was your lazy parenting hack?

Speaker 6 (58:46):
Morning? So I was a singer, mom of two boys
and a girl. Yeah, and I'm they're teenagers now, but
we know babies or like toddlers. I used to pause
the exact right amount of milk into a bottle, put
it in the fridge, and put the cereal on the
bench with glared wreck overs over it so they could
feed themselves with their breakfast before waking me out.

Speaker 1 (59:11):
And they found a bit grown up because they were
preparing their own breakfast. But you've done all the measuring
in the hard yards.

Speaker 6 (59:15):
Yeah, so to wake up. I used that until my
two year old decided to try to copy his brother
and poured out a three liter of milk on the floor.

Speaker 1 (59:29):
They'll teach you for sleeping in so many towels off
the milk. Thanks, you call a more lazy parenting hack.

Speaker 2 (59:36):
I used to.

Speaker 1 (59:36):
Feed my toddlers in the bath mess free kitchen spaghetti and.

Speaker 2 (59:41):
Then you could just hose some down with the handset. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (59:45):
Yeah, they dragged the showered out and give them Give
the whole area a hose down.

Speaker 2 (59:50):
Finger, a couple of fruit loops down the plug hole though,
or coca pops.

Speaker 1 (59:54):
Yeah, a spaghetti the speedy will get its way down
the bath. Yeah. Life hack the times that the kids
wake mummy or daddy or uncle.

Speaker 2 (01:00:05):
Okay, maybe he's do you reckon uncle's in quotation marks
uncles having a sleepover. Again. It feels that big just
call him uncle.

Speaker 1 (01:00:13):
Yeah yeah, And you think it's a throupple with kids
in this situation.

Speaker 2 (01:00:19):
Okay, could just fly and fly out. So sometimes uncle sleeps.

Speaker 1 (01:00:23):
It could just be the uncle lives with them, lives
with them. Wake up the uncle, he's living here. And
too many documentaries you think this is something the theoryous.
There's something going on, and it's not the time that
the kids wake mummy or daddy or uncle up on
a Saturday morning. Is the time they go to bed
on Saturday night. So if they wake up with six thirty,
they're going to bed at six thirty?

Speaker 2 (01:00:42):
What did that genius? Actually really good? It's really good?
Is that going to And then they're not going to
wake you up?

Speaker 5 (01:00:48):
You know?

Speaker 1 (01:00:49):
And then you all you've got to do is set
your alarm for the time you want the kids to
be in bed that night.

Speaker 2 (01:00:52):
But what if they hide to one pm? And then
they're like.

Speaker 1 (01:00:54):
They hide, well, technically you're awake, so that timing stops.
My mum shit after boarding school and rent it out
my room so I couldn't come home on the weekends.

Speaker 2 (01:01:03):
That's it's actually just sad. Actually sorry for you.

Speaker 1 (01:01:06):
I don't know if that's a lazy parenting hack because
they were paying still paying for you.

Speaker 2 (01:01:10):
Yeah, to go to boarding school. That's easy.

Speaker 1 (01:01:12):
But it must be hard being at boarding school knowing
that your parents don't love you.

Speaker 2 (01:01:16):
And you can't go home room.

Speaker 1 (01:01:19):
Even though you slept in Yeah, even though you didn't
wake anybody know, you saved until nine am.

Speaker 2 (01:01:24):
Uncle's still there.

Speaker 1 (01:01:26):
Yeah. And when you do go home on the weekends,
you got to go to bed super early because they
want to use the lounge for whatever Uncle's there for. Yeah.
My parenting hack is living next door to my parents.
Oh yep, free babysittings. Cool, But ask your partner how
they feel about their in law's bigger than breath.

Speaker 2 (01:01:40):
I'm just saying, not for my case particular. Oh yeah,
because you love you.

Speaker 1 (01:01:44):
Yeah, big fan, big fan. My parents hack was having
a child in the eighties when the house cost thirty
thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:01:52):
Yeah good, Yeah, that was rub it in.

Speaker 1 (01:01:57):
Lots of people doing dinner in the bath someone someone
else did. I.

Speaker 2 (01:02:01):
I feed my kids dinner at afternoon tea time.

Speaker 1 (01:02:04):
They're always starving after school and candy, so they eat
everything on their plate, whereas if you leave a little
bit later, they'll snack and then they'll be picky.

Speaker 2 (01:02:10):
It as at dinner time. Oh that's a good.

Speaker 1 (01:02:11):
So I feed them an afternoon dinner if they're hungry again,
that's when they have their version of afternoon.

Speaker 2 (01:02:16):
That's so when I have dinner like three thirty four.
Love it.

Speaker 1 (01:02:19):
Your kids are going to grab to be like Fletcher
in bed By seven seven forty five years stop now,
stop now, feed them late, feed them.

Speaker 1 (01:02:46):
We're talking about the Paralympics all week this week, and
I watched some of the swimming last night, and boy
was I inspired not to go near a pool because
those people are so quick and I've got all my
limbs and I'm able bodied, and I would embarrass myself.

Speaker 2 (01:03:02):
Yeah, that would be inspiring. Aim. It's nuts how it is.

Speaker 1 (01:03:06):
Everything you watch at the Paralympics, so on spiring amazing,
I said yesterday the Olympics, you're like, Wow, that's amazing.
At the Paralympics, you're like, wow, that's amazing and awfully
inspiring and making me feel terrible. Yep, but boy, some
athletes there. So we're concentrating on the Paralympics all week
this week. Producer Shannon seent me this yesterday saying, what
about the fact of the day about people that have

(01:03:27):
competed at both the Olympics and the Paralympics.

Speaker 2 (01:03:31):
Oh, okay, and.

Speaker 1 (01:03:32):
There are not that many examples of it, so I
would thought I would focus on two.

Speaker 2 (01:03:37):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:03:37):
One A New Zealander narrowly Fairhall was born in nineteen
forty four on christ Church. She took up archery following
a motorcycle accident that paralyzed it from the waist down,
ending her previous athletics career. She'd always been out there
for the track and field.

Speaker 2 (01:03:54):
She won gold at.

Speaker 1 (01:03:55):
The Commonwealth Games Young Brisbane for archery in nineteen eighty two.
She competed at the Los Angeles Olympic Games in nineteen
eighty four and finished thirty fifth, but also competed at
the Summer Paralympics in nineteen seventy two, nineteen eighty, ninety
eighty eight in the year two thousand, okay, for archery.

Speaker 2 (01:04:15):
So that's a good a New Zealander doing it well.

Speaker 5 (01:04:18):
She was she was.

Speaker 1 (01:04:21):
I want to get this right, paraplegic. Okay, when she
competed at the Olympics, I was gonna ask what she
was so good? She as partlegic competed at the Olympics. Okay,
and also went to the Paralympics yeap of the same year.
Because I guess archery is you're either standing or sitting right, like,
it doesn't matter. Yeah, Now, the first person to have

(01:04:42):
won and one of the I think one of the
only people. There's a couple of people who have won
medals at both the Olympics and the Paralympics. The other
examples are cyclists. You know when the blind cycling, the
vision impaired cycling. Yeah, they need a guide. So it's
like a tandem bike. And I believe the guide goes
at the front and steers and the other person. Yes

(01:05:05):
they are, but both win medals, right. So the other
ones that have won Olympic medals and Paralympic medals are
people with sight who were guides for right Paralympic athletes. Okay,
But the one who has won both medals at the
Olympics in the Paralympics was a Hungarian fencer called pel Securites.

(01:05:27):
He won a bronze medal and nineteen ninty eight at
the sun Per Olympics in Seoul, and in nineteen ninety
one he was in a bus accident. I was in
a picture of the bus accident and it wasn't just
like a nose the towel with the it off transport.

Speaker 2 (01:05:39):
It was no, it was a burst.

Speaker 1 (01:05:41):
It was the carcass of the bus was just burst
into flames in a one massive collision with the truck
he had In that accident he ended up in a
wheelchair and so he took up wheelchair fencing. He won
gold at the nineteen ninety two Summer Paralympics in Barcelona,
two gold at Atlanta in nineteen ninety six, a bronze
in two thousand and two thousand and four and two
thousand and eight, as well as the bronze medal that

(01:06:03):
he won and for fencing in the nineteen eighty eight
elements before his bus accident in nineteen ninety one and
he's fifty nine years old.

Speaker 2 (01:06:11):
Huh yeah, I was amazing old. Haven't competed that well.

Speaker 1 (01:06:14):
Yeah, but so that's Today's Fact of the Day is
a New Zealand archer has competed at both the Paralympics
and the Olympics, and.

Speaker 2 (01:06:22):
A Hungarian fencer has won medals at both.

Speaker 1 (01:14:46):
Hiking in thermals. Yeah, it doesn't sink him being it

But why did she want you talking about this on
the radio and in the podcast.

Speaker 2 (01:14:56):
I don't know, because it's my body shame, isn't it.

Speaker 1 (01:14:58):
It's your shame, my sho She probably just felt shame
that she had for she had to say something. She
drew the short store and had to say I wanted
it also there if there was this conversation, yes, okay,
well tell them. Who's going to tell them? One, two,
three papers is rock best autified pap? Because it would
be a horrible thing I have to do. And then
I'm got on my back of my mind. Now I'm
one of those people that smell that don't know they smell,

(01:15:19):
because you know when you did the smelly people, and
you're like, because they obviously just gonna say it because
they didn't know they smell. Oh no, anyway, Like, if
you see me in the future and I'm fat, just
know that this is the point of.

Speaker 2 (01:15:34):
This is what you gave up because I gave you.
Don't want to be shamed anymore.

Speaker 7 (01:15:38):
No, okay plays Flitchborne.

Speaker 1 (01:15:41):
And Hailey, a couple at the end of twenty twenty one.
This is a New Zealand. They're not identified, they're just
identified by the quarters X and Y. They bought a
house and they found two hundred and thirty two thousand
dollars in the ceiling well. An electrician found it when
he came around to do some work at their house,
and assuming they were maybe.

Speaker 2 (01:16:00):
Renovating, it would say we're in New Zealand.

Speaker 1 (01:16:04):
No, so everything that identifiable has been left out of
this case. Idea for silly little poll a question. Now,
let's maybe we can do this overnight and bring you
the results tomorrow on the show. If you found two
hundred and thirty two thousand dollars in the roof of
your house, would you call the police or keep it?

Speaker 2 (01:16:23):
God, let's not involved the police that.

Speaker 1 (01:16:26):
But then you would always be looking over your shoulder
because who put that money there?

Speaker 2 (01:16:31):
Sell the house? Who put the Oh you sell the
house in the money? Sell the house.

Speaker 1 (01:16:35):
But it's all public record. Did find you and it's cash?
People are like, yeah, it's cash. You've got to be
careful spinning cash because too much cash spinning raises some flags. Yeah,
I guess you just do all of your supermarket shopping
feeding notes into these machines.

Speaker 2 (01:16:51):
Hondy.

Speaker 1 (01:16:53):
Well, they did call the police the electrician founder in
the ceiling, and this is now a court case because
the couple have said, well, hang on a sec this
is money in our house.

Speaker 2 (01:17:05):
It's our money.

Speaker 1 (01:17:06):
Oh so the court cases then wanting their money back
because no one's coming forward to claim it and the
old rule is and they couldn't confirm that it would be.
But the police are saying that this is proceeds more
than likely proceeds pro criminal activity.

Speaker 2 (01:17:19):
Prove it. Well, that's the thing. They've got to prove it.
That's impossible.

Speaker 1 (01:17:23):
The couple say that even if it is tainted, they
aren't criminals and that they should have the money. So
for now the High Court has sided with the police
and has issued a restraining order over the money. The couple, though,
does get another chance to make their case when the
police take the next step in the proceedings, and they
will have.

Speaker 2 (01:17:43):
The chance then to it they be.

Speaker 1 (01:17:45):
Able to look back to see whose name was on
because so the house has rented, it will be traceable,
wouldn't it said so they did try to track down
the last tenants of the house.

Speaker 2 (01:17:57):
Nothing suggests that they had any kind of criminal background.

Speaker 1 (01:18:01):
Uh. The house was owned by a family trust. He
was apparently one member of the family trust that did
have a gang connection but has since passed away. The
family said that that they more than likely didn't even
visit the house. So like, no one knows how this
money got there, and they have tried because the electrician
found it, right, Yeah, they didn't know was the He's like,

(01:18:23):
look what you got here. I'd be like, all right, sparko, yeah, sure,
your face. Take here's fifty grand. You don't say anything, Yeah, yeah,
spark he's always in own cases, yeah exactly, But yeah,
I don't know. So it's it's yeah, still in the courts.
And come on, someone messaged in five hundred thousand dollars.

(01:18:45):
I definitely tell the police about the two hundred and
thirty two thousand dollars. Now that's good, and make it
a really uneven number, like two hundred and thirty two thousand, yeah, yeah,
yeah yeah, and a bag for some reason, like in
a bag way too big for two hundred and thirty
two thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:19:00):
I don't know why.

Speaker 1 (01:19:00):
So it was in a few bags in the ceiling
and they had dust on them. So if I have
sealed plastic bags fifty dollar notes mostly, can they tell
what year the notes they had? So how long it
could be setting up there? They took to the reserve
bank they established it. The notes were issued between May
twenty sixteen and October twenty eighteen. Okay, who were the
reason that I'd figured there? We were doing in early

(01:19:22):
two thousand. So there were sixty three different issue codes
on them. That meant that the cash was collected from
a right a wide range of sources, but in a
relatively short space of time, and the way that it
had been bundled up suggested drug activity.

Speaker 2 (01:19:36):
I always roll all my twenties up.

Speaker 1 (01:19:37):
You al.

Speaker 2 (01:19:40):
Twenties.

Speaker 1 (01:19:41):
It is also five thousand dollars. So yeah, so that's
why the police is saying tainted drug money. It'll be
New Zealand's money soon unless there's a couple kind of
can yeah get the money back if I'm being honest.
Doesn't pay it, does it?

Speaker 3 (01:19:55):
Nah?

Speaker 2 (01:19:57):
It doesn't pay anything. It doesn't pay two hundred and
thirty two thousand dollars.

Speaker 1 (01:20:00):
It pays two hundred and two thousand dollars less than
being a chicky record. I tell you what, though, you'd
what you'd have to spend a large amount of that
money getting a good security system and some bars on
the window and a security door, because someone's coming back
for that money.

Speaker 2 (01:20:13):
So great work, guys, ten out of ten. If I
say so myself, I'm gonna do a nine point six.

Speaker 1 (01:20:21):
Is that enough for you to review this podcast with
