One hundred and eleven days away. Have you guys already
worked at your Christmas plans? No? I haven't. Yeah, I
don't know what I'm doing. I'll just do the same
thing I do every year. No need for plans, just
eight get by presents. But lady, who's going to be there?

(02:58):
Surely you've chosen a house by now? Nah, Well you've

Speaker 4 (03:02):
It's sprout Christmas, meaning you know on the day we're

Speaker 3 (03:06):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (03:06):
I don't even know if my brother's coming over, were
going to Wellington and they coming I don't know.

Speaker 3 (03:10):
Goodness nothing. Wor's one hundred and eleven days where, especially
if you're booking flights. Oh, you've got to to make
anybody else's problem. Yeah, everyone comes to you way easier. Well.
And Venezuela, the lovely, beautiful country of Venezuela times two
balent times. Yeah, I've got a couple of Venezuelan friends
always posting about like they've basically got a Trump running

(03:32):
the show, but a real authoritarian piece of the name
Nicholas Maduro Maduro. And he's an authoritarian basically. The latest
election they've had was absolutely regged yea, and people aren't
happy about it. And I think they're just he's just
arrested or put out an a risk warrant for the
opposition leader. It's it's horrible times the countries that it's

(03:57):
apparently the country has had like high you know, bad
inflation and economic problems for a long time now. Yeah,
And because things are so at such a like flash
point in Venezuela at the moment, the president has announced
that Christmas will now be in October, just to distract
from everything. I'm sorry, so he said, do that, can you?
Apparently you can, he said, and I'm quoting, it's September

(04:20):
and it already feels like Christmas. So this year, as
a way of paying tribute to you, and thanking you.
I'm going to decree that Christmas be brought forward to
the first of October.

Speaker 4 (04:29):
Now that's stressful. It's not a thank you to bring
Christmas rushing it.

Speaker 3 (04:33):
It's rushing, so like it's like the whole religious thing, right, Yeah,
they would be quite you'd imagine quite religious here Venezuela,
like a lot of America. He's a Catholic, yeah, the
Portuguese or Spanish origins. Yeah, well origin slash colonizes. Yeah,
are we.

Speaker 4 (04:49):
Doing it like the king where you know, Jesus' birthday
doesn't really matter, it's just when it falls.

Speaker 3 (04:55):
Was more likely born in July anyway? Yeah? Yeah, isn't
that that? If he was born where they said he
was born in that time of year, it would have
been like middle of winter. And did we get December
twenty fifth from I think they nicked it off the Pagans,
didn't they? Oh my god? Tho it was in the winter.
So I was like, they need something to celebrate there
because we got cold, and yeah, right, you.

Speaker 5 (05:16):
Basically done there themselves, just picked a date.

Speaker 3 (05:18):
And Roman Catholic is the most common religion in Venezuela. Okay,
so they're changing Jesus' birthday just for this dude, that's wild.

Speaker 5 (05:27):
Are you going to do this?

Speaker 3 (05:29):
How?

Speaker 5 (05:29):
How going to know the sands is going to come
out twice?

Speaker 3 (05:31):
Now?

Speaker 5 (05:32):
That's yeah, wasting his time.

Speaker 3 (05:34):
I'm really going to go throw the elves and Santa's
production into absolute termolish.

Speaker 4 (05:39):
They sit back till at least the start of October,
don't they?

Speaker 3 (05:42):
Yeah, because the New Zealanders they leave it all the
last minute. Yeah, and then the er we need some
nerve blasters and some g Joe's. I don't know what's
what the kids used? The balloons? Balloons? Balloons? Yeah, bag balloons?
Are you bit of a craplophones?

Speaker 5 (06:02):

of authoritarians do. Yeah, So happy Merry Christmas. First of October.
Venezuelan listeners, what language they speak there, Venezuela? Don't they
speak then? Yeah, Brazil is the only one that speaks.
They probably speak a bit of Portuguese, but a Spanish. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:33):
So then I'd like to say prospero, annoy felici dud. Wow,

Yeah, prospero annoy felici dud.

Speaker 3 (06:45):
Prospero, Merry Christmas, prosperous, Merry Christmas. In Venezuela, n Tessa
Flinch Voorne and Haley Flitch.

Speaker 4 (06:53):
You you've used Apple tags to trace your baggage before,
haven't you.

Speaker 3 (06:57):
Yeah, And they discouraged that. They're like, no, I think
shot lines are pretty good with it. I think they're
on board with it now. They just hated you being like,
exactly where my bagg is. Just let me get back there.
I'll be able to grab it. Yeah, because I can
still see it hasn't left the airport. And you guys
have really bagged this out. Yeah, get up on their
face because I landed and crash it and I was

(07:17):
waiting at the carousel and then I yeah saw my
ear tag say it was an Aukland and it was.
It was still there.

Speaker 4 (07:23):
Yeah, no baggage. I've never used them. I don't have them,
but people use them for all sorts of things.

Speaker 3 (07:28):
They're so good for traveling, traveling overseas. You have to
have them. They are just incredible.

Speaker 4 (07:33):
I need to get some for my dad. He's I mean,
I'm just going to say he's forgetful. He's got Alzheimers,
but like just one on him, yeah, just because he
goes wandering.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
No. But like keys wallet, the mist not about it
is that it plays a little noise, doesn't it. Yeah,
that's the best because you lose it around the house
and you look on it. It's in your house and
you're like, let me find it.

Speaker 5 (07:52):
The thing I used my Apple Watch formed the most.

Speaker 3 (07:55):
It is finding my phone and absolutely.

Speaker 5 (07:57):
Without it so good and you can playing the sound.

Speaker 3 (08:00):
You can get ones for your wallet too. It's lovely things.
The toys we had when we were kids and you'd
whistle and go and you so the whistle key rings
were so popular they became toys. They were like these
things you'd hide, and the whole idea was someone would
hide them. It was like a game of hide and seek.
But it opened up the possibilities of places. Little My

(08:22):
sister had a purple fluffy one with eyes and stuff.
And they were also your key rings, big boody key rings.
You'd whistle find your gaze.

Speaker 4 (08:31):
Maybe I'll buy something. I do need these because I'm
also very forgiveful.

Speaker 3 (08:34):
Oh my god, they're great.

Speaker 4 (08:34):
Anyway, reason'm talking about Apple tags is because people use
them all the time. I mean sometimes they use them
to like track their boyfriends on a night out. I mean,
you were not encouraging that.

Speaker 3 (08:42):
If you're with a Like if I borrow my friend's car,
he's got one in his car and deep at me
and alert me that someone's got a their tag on me.
You as you go share device worth and you put
it on that person's phone too, So then it doesn't
be when you're stalking them.

Speaker 4 (08:56):
I reckon, you just gonna get that information was like
too really available in your brain.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
Well, I just want to know what west Field my
wife's at. I know she's at A because if it's
new Market, you're in trouble. Too many arptions.

Speaker 4 (09:11):
Anyway, The reason I'm talking about this is because there
is a Texas resident over in America and she is
like a climate justice activist, Like, yeah, you know, probably
just saw Greta Tumburg got arrested overnight.

Speaker 3 (09:25):
Did she ye?

Speaker 5 (09:26):
She's still protesting, She's still upset.

Speaker 3 (09:28):
That's good. I thought we'd sorted out what she asked
us to do. I would have just got like famous
for fifteen minutes. And now this child damn like runaway
plastic ye places, Yeah, do you know what I meant
it anyway? So so she yeah, we stand by her.

Speaker 4 (09:41):
But this woman wanted to see where her recycling was
actually going because.

Speaker 5 (09:46):
We think we know and maybe we don't.

Speaker 3 (09:49):
This is a problem I've had and because a lot
of the was it fear go yeah, one of these Yeah,
they showed that like a lot of the recycled council
bins would just go in the trash right in the
normal like see your triple one, Yeah, you put your
coffee in, and then it would all just go on
the same Oh yeah.

Speaker 4 (10:08):
So Houston, excuse met Houston started this like whole new scheme,
and in twenty twenty two they were like, this is
what's going to happen.

Speaker 3 (10:16):
We've got this.

Speaker 4 (10:17):
New sort of recycling place, and you're going to use
this technology to burn it and do this and chemically
treat it and then reuse it, and it's going to
be revolutionary.

Speaker 5 (10:26):
It's going to change how we do things. So she
wanted to check this.

Speaker 4 (10:29):
So in each bag of her recycling for weeks. So
she bought like heaps of these tag they're not cheap. Nah,
She'd drop an apple ear tag in them and track them.
And it turns out one it was nowhere near where
it said it was going. It was nowhere near this
recycling plant that they said.

Speaker 3 (10:46):
Where it was going.

Speaker 4 (10:47):
And it was all just like it was just sitting
there being untouched basically.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
And the air tag didn't get like compacted in a
rubbish truck or a collection truck.

Speaker 4 (10:58):
Nah, it was just sitting there abandoned in essentially what
is landfill. So they had they had these ways of
like advanced recycling Da da da da, and none of
it has happened. And actually I was looking to see
if that actually said anything, but they haven't yet because
this goes on all the time. So last year, heaps

(11:18):
of news outlets did this and they like tracked a
bunch of recycling across all of America, and very little
of it was actually going to these recycling centers.

Speaker 5 (11:29):
I guess, only like a select amount.

Speaker 3 (11:31):
I think, is it just so we feel good when
we're doing it. I don't know iden we're doing our part.
I feel like people who said they're taking care of
the next part. Aren't doing their part.

Speaker 5 (11:41):
Yeah, but we're like we'd we had we.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
Had like piles of recycling sitting in like warehouses and
fields doing nothing because they couldn't sell it to China
or something. Yeah, and I like, well, I guess we
bury it now. Yeah. I was also watching a video.
I don't know what it was on.

Speaker 4 (11:58):
I'm sure it was on some like council thing maybe
about paper recycling. And they're like, anything smaller than an envelope,
your standard less a envelope, put it in the bin
and landfill, not in not in your recycling paper because
it goes through a machine and anything small just slips
through and goes in the bin. Anywhay, So like, yeah,
basically anything smaller than a a four piece of paper.

(12:20):
So if you've got little bits of paper and you're recycling,
like nah, So if you know, like shredding, yep, they're like,
you can't recycle shredded paper.

Speaker 3 (12:27):
Is that this as news to me? Into a pulp, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (12:31):
It goes through a process first before it gets pulped, right,
and anything smaller just slips So it goes in the train.

Speaker 3 (12:37):
You get a on it catch all that other stuff.
You get a from like Briscos. Yeah, it's Thursday where
they all start. Yeah, we're over here. We just work
on council consultant. I think we did money problems. I
want someone to do this in New Zealand. They have
they do. I'm sure that was what Figo used to

(12:58):
do it when they did it recently. Will you guys
have apple tags? Sacrifice don't only.

Speaker 4 (13:04):
Need I'm not going to buy them in then sacrifice
one you do it?

Speaker 3 (13:10):
Numb is that of Britain, but I believe it would
be similar, if not hire in New Zealand because I
think we're a smaller country, so we probably think it would
be easy to work it out. Okay, but apparently one
of three British people believe they could solve a murder.
Solve the murder. Yeah, because of the amount of true
crime podcasts and TV shows they watch.

Speaker 4 (13:33):
Get a little break from true crime actually, because I
was really into it.

Speaker 3 (13:37):
You've gone from true crime to I know.

Speaker 4 (13:39):
Literally that's all I listened to at the moment. But
I was a big true crimer. I would have thought
I was more capable of I don't know. I don't
want to curse again, but committing murder.

Speaker 3 (13:49):
Because you've been solving it all the ways to get away,
how you get away with Yeah, you know sometimes they
can do away with murders on TV shows and you're like,
the they purely by luck that nobody was there. Yeah,
they walk in somewhere and shoot someone and walk out
and they're like, wow, why would it have been me? Yeah? Yeah,

(14:10):
prove it. Yeah, and it's well. So two thousand adults
were studied. Eighteen percent think they could handle a missing
person's case, seventeen percent reckon they could successfully investigate fraud.
Oh yeah, okay, thirteen percent believe they have what it
takes to solve cyber crimes such as catfishing. Yeah, and
twelve percent think they do a better job than the

(14:31):
police when it comes to so yeah on, but one
third believe they've got what it takes to be part
of a successful investigation team into a murder. Is this
The stats split it all by gender, Like like when
guys thought they could land the plane. Yeah, yeah, guys
are like I think woman, I think woman. On the
true crime you would be men would totally be ye

(14:57):
do the better job than the cops, and men would
totally be there. Usual full of themselves opinion of our
overestimated saying it. But women in this case of salving
the murder, because we all know white checks, love love,
true love, true crime. Oh yeah, I mean, you know,
brutal the better. We all know that that women love

(15:19):
tracking down a cheating boyfriend. Oh god. Yeah, and we'll
go into absolutely overdrive detective.

Speaker 4 (15:24):
The cat fishing one, I reckon I'd be onto it
pretty quick if someone tried to catfish me.

Speaker 3 (15:29):
Yeah, you was messaging me, right, you'd know who they are,
or you'd know that you were being camp fished.

Speaker 4 (15:34):
I'd know that I was being catfish and then I'd
play along, right, I'm exposed to expose.

Speaker 3 (15:39):
Okay, yeah, they didn't give away.

Speaker 4 (15:41):
Would be like it's Jason Marmore and I'm blas.

Speaker 3 (15:46):
Silly idiot. But he'd be asking you for money.

Speaker 5 (15:50):
Yeah, he'd be asking me for money and nudes.

Speaker 3 (15:53):
The thing with the podcast and the you know, comp
and crime shows reality or fake that they don't show
the actual hard work that goes into these. They get
the lab results in like thirty seconds. Yeah, in the
next scene they have the lab results that could take
like a month, and what are you doing in that month? Yeah?

Speaker 6 (16:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:15):
Yeah, start working on your other case. The cases you've
got no leads, people have no idea, and then you've
got to follow all the protocol. You're sure that you
don't the case that's the case where the lawyer can
get them them out of Yeah, yeah, because you've made
a mistake. Yeah. I do love. I do love a
bit of arrogance. Though it's cute, You're cute, it's really

(16:35):
cute arrogance. That's what I'm always saying. Cute, arrogant. Oh
my god, he's so arrogant. That's super cute, super cute.
Play play blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. This

Swift throwing money in a fireplace. Are your girls swifties?
I mean I enjoy the musical stylings. Yeah, that's definitely

(17:17):
not Swift. Is to launch Australasia's first university course studying
Swift blah blah blah. A lot of American units have
done this in the last year or sign.

Speaker 4 (17:30):
It's like a study of culture right and like the

of pop culture phenomenon. Let's not forget the time she
threw out fan mail without reading it, straightened the book

something where she is just doing the music thing.

and Chanted by Tailor. It was not by Taylor, do
you know what I mean?

Speaker 4 (18:37):
She didn't go in and go all this smells perfume,
like one hundred and thirty bucks for one hundred mil.

Speaker 3 (18:45):
So also it's only a summer course, yes, right, okay,
some of her imagine the interest like when you think
about your student loan, Yeah, and if you were to
go overseas or just like the what the length of
time to pay off that? Which extra it's going to
cost you?

Speaker 6 (19:01):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (19:01):

in the we must come back to this and we
should interview someone who did it and just.

Speaker 3 (19:10):
Be like, what did you learn? Yeah, show us year working? Yeah,
you see, you know, I guess it's just if you're

These idiots, I'm just these idiots. Sorry, women, they have
no idea. There subtle differences between a black sack and
a black sack. Right, obviously, obviously they call it stealth shopping,
like stealth mode.

Speaker 3 (23:16):
Its its official name, now official name.

Speaker 4 (23:19):
This is what we're referring to it as. Stealth shopping
is the act of concealing something you've bought from your significant.

Speaker 3 (23:25):
Other, which has been This has been an age old
ever since online shopping. Very much has been age old.

Speaker 4 (23:31):
Now this does not apply if you've bought them lack
a gift and you're hiding it.

Speaker 3 (23:37):
That's not stealth shopping. It's when you're getting it for yourself. Yeah, okay,
I think the.

Speaker 4 (23:42):
Hardest part of stealth shopping is definitely the incorporation of
it into your life, like this new item, like trying
to justify how it's arrived, when it arrived.

Speaker 3 (23:53):
When it is the last time you did this.

Speaker 4 (23:55):
Yeah, I'm just trying to think. Maybe I didn't do
much staff. Actually, no, I didn't do any stealth shopping
in when I was abroad.

Speaker 3 (24:04):
Yeah, in Italy. I was honest about all of that.
What have you noticed anything with your wife worn any
stealth shopping late. It's hard because she doesn't have a
workplace to get them sent to have to get sent
to the house you're a security camera that tells us
every time someone comes up the driveway. So I see that,
I can see the courier. You can be like, what
did the courier drop off today? Oh? Yeah, she's also

(24:28):
a terrible liar. Oh yeah, she's like nothing something.

Speaker 4 (24:36):
Yeah, yeah, right, no, mine is mine is definitely Oh
he'll be like, oh nice pink.

Speaker 5 (24:46):
Sure, when did you get that? I was like years ago,
I think I can't remember.

Speaker 3 (24:53):
That looks new and now I've had this for ages
and then you feel the fabric and you can immediately
tell if it's has not been washed. And our.

Speaker 4 (25:01):
Well, stealth shopping is the name that we're giving it.
I'm not encouraging this kind of behavior. I think we
should be very transparent with all life partners, with our
financial decisions.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
Somebody messaged in saying their trick is to buy secondhand tools.
The second hand tools never look new, and yeah, that
would only work on tools, but they'd like, you want
the new, shiny tool, You want shiny, Yeah, but if
you really want it, that's a great way of getting
away with it. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (25:27):
I don't know how you do this with something really
identifiably new, like or something really bold that You're like,
I've literally never.

Speaker 3 (25:34):
Seen that in my life. Yeah. Like the wife's like,
why is it? Why have you've got a brain new
shiny rode on lawnmark. We've never had one of those before.
Oh yeah, it's just been in the garage it the
whole time alteration pushm.

Speaker 4 (25:47):
Yeah, yeah, it's just it's a totally different branding is ginormous.

Speaker 6 (25:51):
If it plays fled Vorne and Hailey, it is so silly, silly, silly,
that little pottle poles a little.

Speaker 3 (26:14):
We did talk yesterday about the couple that found two
hundred and through two thousand dollars in cash. This sparky
was in this the ceiling space and he's like, what's this?
Opens the bag all this cash? What do you do
with this? They handed it to the police. Fire. Is
this weird? And so no details So like the couple, Yeah,
no name locations. The house isn't named. It was tucked

(26:37):
away in the insulation of this ceiling and your nave
dusty vacuum sealed plastic bricks.

Speaker 5 (26:43):
Oh that is cocaine detail yesterday.

Speaker 3 (26:50):
Rugs. Yeah, all over you know, Honah, you wouldn't be
able to tell if a spark he found a whole
lot of money because they're always rich anyway. Man, Yeah,
ranger or a new ranger.

Speaker 8 (27:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (27:03):
So there was an interview and read in New Zealand
yesterday and they've written a big article about this with
Barrister Marie Drybird k C barista, sorry barista. She makes
coffees for the They speak to a barista for the
King's Cafe. A barista. I mean she hears all the

(27:24):
goss because everybody always finds in there. No, but barrister
Marie Dryberg case and she had some interesting points about this.
She said, if a person found an amount of cash
in New Zealand, under law, they're not legally obliged to
report it, but there are several factors that you need
to take into account because it could be that, yeah,

(27:45):
this is what this is my thing.

Speaker 4 (27:46):
I would be less concerned about what are the police
going to say, Oh, what's the right legal thing to
do here?

Speaker 3 (27:52):
I'm going this is drug money.

Speaker 4 (27:54):
Someone scary probably knows that this is in my roof
and at one point they're going to come looking for it.

Speaker 3 (27:59):
Yeah, and I don't want to deal with them. Well,
and that's that's something she said. She said, Yeah, you
may want to hand it over to the police, because
there may be circumstances whereby you can nonetheless be charged
with fifth, fifth and so forth. I didn't still, so
you just yeah, I don't know's it's the looking over

(28:20):
your shoulder all the time for whoever's money that is.

Speaker 4 (28:23):
Yes, yes, And then the moment you distribute in your
bank account and you start spending it, you'll be like.

Speaker 3 (28:27):
Oh, yeah, well we asked you for silly little pole.
I saw quite a few of these poles on news
websites yesterday. What would you do if thirty thousand dollars
in your roof? Would you A keep the cash? Be
take some and then tell the police, and then see
alert the police and hand it all over. Interesting The
least popular was take some and then tell the police
at fourteen percent, nineteen percent would alert the police and

(28:50):
handed all over. Sixty seven percent would keep the care.
I love that. Okay, some feedback people say they'll take it,
But me and my partner found five thousand dollars cash
in a rental car and couldn't keep it if we tried.
When it came to it, we panicked. That's from Monique.
Oh Monique, I'll say it your ship's weak, it's too strong.

(29:11):
That's nice. That's gonna pay for that rental car, gets
you a nicer holiday. That's easy companies to go baby,
because in my mind it's like, oh, rich tourists, they
can afford it. But then in my mind, poor family
and that's their money for the holidays, is who gets
all of their cash out. I'm sorry, you've got to
learn the lesson. You're going to learn it the hardway.
You lost your money, you'd take the money, okay. Chair

(29:35):
said he couldn't take it because karma is a bitch. Plus,
you couldn't hide slash deposit that into your bank account.
You'd have to slowly spend it as cash like you're
money laundering. Everybody got time for that. Oh boohoo. I
don't have time to spare cash on grocery. So that's
only going to take like six months of grocery shopping
to get rid of that cash. You're gonna have all
the stamps at the end of it, Yes, and you

(29:57):
can have a two hundred and two thousand dollars city system.
Lord of your money. Tom and Rach said, absolutely take it.
But I'm moving also because then MOFO has been coming
back for that case.

Speaker 4 (30:14):
I'm just interested in their Instagram pro they got the
joint in Rage and Hand.

Speaker 5 (30:18):
I'm imagining Hank some kind of the dog.

Speaker 3 (30:20):
Yeah, joint Instagram interesting Rach and Hand. But it might
be a situation like your fiance Aaron, but you don't
he doesn't use it.

Speaker 4 (30:31):
But Hank is a part of mye Okay, he's not
part of my profile.

Speaker 3 (30:36):
He doesn't have access to it. Hank is a high
van all right, okay, and they travel around. Oh okay,
so it's like it kind of travel travel lifestyle vibe.
I take it back. I thought it was like, you know,
Tom's been naughty. That'd be perfect for the cash because
they're on the right. Yeah, you guys, you're always dealing

(30:57):
a cash and you're spreading cash around.

Speaker 4 (30:59):
You really kill son, Tom and Rage. Anyway, we're deep.
I'm deep in their profile.

Speaker 3 (31:03):
Keep the cash and not tell a soul, Buy a
VP in and find out the best way to launder
the cash into my account. I know a bad pay
a bit at text, but cash money, baby, Why are
people just just spend it or spending this cash and
then all the money that they usually spend on anything
else save that. Yeah. Yeah, I mean you've got there's
some things you can't pay cash for, like your mortgage
in that. Yeah, but what says so you go pay

(31:26):
your mortgage with cash, or you can go to the
casino and just be sitting on the camera and then
just be like celebrating and people like, why's he celebrating,
He's not one anything, and then walk out with all
this cash. And I had a big one at the casino.
Give us, give us your perform months, really big. It's

(31:47):
finally happened.

Speaker 9 (31:48):
The first time I've ever played poke is check the camera,
I'm one, where's the camera?

Speaker 3 (31:55):
Whoa hell? I'd spend our notes. This is so weird.
I thought it would come out of the camera. I
mean the camera is also picking up the pokem machine
that doesn't have any winner, a poke machine that the
camera can only see me or not the front of
the pokeing machine. There's cameras. I'll find it. There will
be one terrible life. Bring your kids into the casino. Yeah,

(32:18):
well maybe they can cause a distraction by running in
and playing the pokers, and then I'll be I think,
just keep work shopping. Yeah, how I'm going to under
that cash? Michelle said, I'd love to keep it, but
it would be I'd be way too worried about someone
would come to try to get it back slash revenge,
would hand it into the police and hope to get
it given back when nobody claims it. You won't. But
then there's going to be someone who's on the inside

(32:40):
of the police. Right. If I watched crooked shows, there's
a crooked cop, Yeah, who tells the gang member for
a payoff? Yeah, who has their money? Because that'll be
officially on record if you claim it back. Oh yeah, yeah,
I think you're just going to have to move to
consta Rica or something.

Speaker 4 (32:57):
I mean, with two hundred and thirty thousand dollars, I'm
all right, gonna have to got a time.

Speaker 3 (33:03):
I watched way too many crime shows to know that
later on it would come back and you have a
lot of problems. Yeah. Yeah, this is like literally the
start of movies and TV shows. Oh yeah, this is
how it all goes downhill.

Speaker 5 (33:15):
I don't want to get involved with gangs and scary.

Speaker 3 (33:18):
People, Meghan said. My husband and I had this debate.
Coming from a criminal law background, I wouldn't want to
keep it all awesome, knowing that it's gang drug money
and that eventually come back and find you and want
that money back. Yeah, yeah, surely that they're very understandable.
Gangs very hey, gang guy, gang guy, are you going
to do? Yeah? What you would? Did you take after pay?

(33:41):
We can maybe we can sell the lay by me
given the step to you. I purchased the house and everything.
That's that's my money now. Yeah. Also, I want to
know this couple that are fighting to keep the money
now from the crown, from us New Zealanders, is that
our money? It's kind of like us. This is in now.
I can deal with the slither. Yeah. Are they paying
for a lawyer because that's going to eat into this

(34:02):
two hundred and thirty two thousand not check very quickly?
Are they like AI representing themselves? I don't know. Someone
just takes messages and they said I'd keep it and
then blame the electrician. When someone came asking I'd no
idea what you're talking about?

Speaker 4 (34:19):
Who was honest in the first place, and said, jeez, yeah,
how long this couple?

Speaker 3 (34:26):
How long did it take them from when the sparky
left to calling the police. That's what I want to know.
You would have set face what are we going to do?
There was a discussion. There was this exact discussion.

Speaker 5 (34:36):
Right, Yeah, someone else ticks, I'd move house, but I'd
keep it.

Speaker 3 (34:40):
Yeah, I would sell the house. I'd flip it and move.

Speaker 5 (34:43):
But you can track that kind of stuff.

Speaker 3 (34:45):
It's all public.

Speaker 5 (34:45):
It's all public knowledge when you buy or sell a
house that is your name.

Speaker 3 (34:48):
This might take a while to launder the money this way.
But someone said there was a local lady who used
to sell drugs. She'd take all the money to the
pub'm it all into the pokeys. They're not even play
the Pokey's just priss collect Yeah, the perkes wouldn't split
the money back out. It would print a ticket and
the bar person would come and give them all the
money in a receipt. Yeah, right, so fresh and so clean.

(35:09):
Classic laundering there, that's some classic laundering. A little bit
of laundering. Yes, we're going to get in trouble next
for telling people how to loader money. Do you want
to balance this out by yeah, certainly not encouraging anyone
to launder money or the self keep cash. You know,
the minute money is in the perkys, you're not gonna
be able to help you about it. Max bit max

(35:29):
bit twenty bit. Well, I cannot believe that most people
would keep the money. That is wild. Thank you for
being honest with us. I like that people are honest.
Play play last night, Oh, final of Taskmaster New Zealand

(35:52):
season five. Yeah, people love Taskmaster. It's watched all over
the world.

Speaker 4 (35:56):
I know people absolutely love it, especially the UK. They
love the Kiwi version. They just love our humor.

Speaker 3 (36:03):
And you tell you what.

Speaker 4 (36:05):
When I was asked to do it, I was really excited,
but the biggest concern was that I was my competitive
nature was going to come out and I would lose
and I would be a sore loser.

Speaker 3 (36:16):
Even though that fakes smile, I'm so happy for it. Well,
if you don't know already, the winner of Taskmaster ends
it in joining us live in studio Hailey's.

Speaker 4 (36:31):
Yeah, welcome to the studio, Hailey sprout. Oh my god,
thank you so much for having me as the winner
of task Master season five.

Speaker 3 (36:40):
The game show that is made up of.

Speaker 4 (36:42):
Completely nonsensical tasks and the points really don't matter at all,
So winning is a very strange feeling.

Speaker 5 (36:48):
Yeah, I didn't want to win, and do you know what,
everyone knew it on the panel as well.

Speaker 3 (36:52):
Yeah, you want to win, you want to win. And
I tried to do that thing where I was like,
I'm here to actually just have fun. I'm more to
the quirky character that everybody loves. Yeah point, yeah, exactly what.
I don't want to be the boring one that just
chases points. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (37:10):
If you watched the episode last night, though, it was
really close, like the points are so silly, but it
was really close.

Speaker 5 (37:15):
And then we had to do a live challenge, live
on stage and I botched it.

Speaker 3 (37:20):
I like stuffed it up.

Speaker 4 (37:22):
You had to take an item off the table and
the whole thing came toppling down. I was like, oh,
I've stuffed it. But I had like one point enough
to be the.

Speaker 3 (37:30):
One I want to checking dinner right your Your girls
are really into the season.

Speaker 5 (37:34):
Actually, yeah, can we talk about that.

Speaker 3 (37:36):
They they as a family, we've loved the last few
seasons of Task Master. I think they were too young
in the first couple maybe, but the last three seasons
I've been really into.

Speaker 6 (37:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (37:46):
So you shared on your social media that family were
sitting down to.

Speaker 3 (37:50):
Watch the final Yeah, and because did you know that
I want Did you know that I want? I knew. Yeah,
but they didn't they I had an inkling, yes, because
you came to a recorder. I went to watch episode
eight nine nine, so the episode before and you were
leading the points table. Yes, I was. So you was like, Oh,

(38:11):
Haley's never going to tell me because she signed a
really strict Indian and I'll obviously never find out. I
didn't tell anyone, and you don't tell anybody. No, I
didn't tell you the end or, of course, was quite
surprised last night when you won.

Speaker 4 (38:22):
Yeah, so no, having watched every episode of yourself and
followed along with great interest, exactly.

Speaker 5 (38:27):
But you she had born that your daughter August had
made her sign.

Speaker 3 (38:33):
Yeah, she was. She was just sitting up there and
we knew she had paper and pencils, and at the
end of it, I found it on the ground because
she was upset her favorite Abbie Hell's didn't win and
she mabbe gob Ebby for the win. Yeah. She was
a big Rayo Lary fan last week. She likes the
people who just kind of like lose their mind in
the task and just quirk out and good sense of humor.

Speaker 4 (38:57):
Yeah, Abby was definitely her favorite this season. Yeah, when
you see why not Hailey as an friend of the family. Yeah,
you know, genuine friend.

Speaker 3 (39:06):
We won't say Auntie Haley. That's probably going to be fun.

Speaker 5 (39:08):
Oh yeah, why not Auntie Haley?

Speaker 3 (39:10):
What did she's Why wasn't she supporting Haley? I see,
didn't you want Haley to win? She was like ah
and Haley one. She always comes around here, drinks so much,
stays too long. I was just like, you're worn out,
stay too long, drink too much loud. Yeah, hasn't been
around lately though, because the spar is not fixed. Wonder

(39:33):
why the spar is not foxed?

Speaker 4 (39:35):
Anyway, if you haven't watched the season, I mean it's
not as the winning's not really, it's not.

Speaker 3 (39:39):
It's guys, it's nothing.

Speaker 4 (39:40):
And I just want you to know that I'm remaining
humble as the winner of season five. But if you
want to watch the season, it's not spoiled by knowing
that I win it. TV plus E F Yeah, catch up.

Speaker 2 (39:53):
And Haley.

Speaker 3 (39:55):
Yesterday I was walking to the gym and I saw
somebody ride past slowly, well under the speed limit on
a really cool motorcycle. And I don't look at motorbikes
and think that's a cool like I don't motorcycle ninja
street dude cool or Harley. I think it was a
Harley Davidson, Like, I don't know. It was black. It

(40:17):
was like jet black.

Speaker 4 (40:18):
It's like real cool, like with the cool handlebars that
go like that, like that that you kind of grip
on down.

Speaker 3 (40:24):
The guy on it was driving real slow and was
kind of like dressed in like I don't know, like
cords and was in cords and T shirt, and I
was just like, you don't suit that motorbike. Yeah, I
know what you mean. Like I was like, you don't
look like and the fact that they were driving really

(40:44):
slow and careful on this really expensive fast motorbike.

Speaker 4 (40:49):
Was usually you've got to have a lot of confidence
to ride a bike by there, and you've got you've
got your leathers on or some jeans and boots at least,
like you.

Speaker 3 (40:57):
See these celebrities like Jess and Momoa, yeah riding his
motibike and then suits reas on his motivat gang procession.
That's what they like to be called parade of gang
affiliates Harleys, and then one of them just opted for
cover sucking ninja.

Speaker 1 (41:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (41:19):
Yeah, but they're always they're showing a little bit of individuality.
But this guy was just you don't suit this. And
this is the question I wanted to ask, is is
this something that you've tried out that you don't suit. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
like maybe you've caught a reflection or you've just kind
of stepped back and thought, that's not me. This is

(41:41):
not what I reckon. A lot of men need to recognize.
Just because it looked good on Thomas Shelby and the
peaky blinders vests, yeah, yeah, I wonder check just to
have a real just a check, Okay.

Speaker 4 (41:57):
I wonder if there would be a lot of me
and as well with a buzz cut or a bald
heat you know that maybe gave it a guy because
you guys both suit being bored and.

Speaker 3 (42:06):
Thank god, yeah the first time you shave your head
as a bald brother, like you look and you're like
that's a horrible shape. Yeah, your oil, We're gonna be okay,
You're gonna be okay. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (42:16):
But I wonder if some people were like, right, I'll
make the I'll make the move and then it just
went or maybe yeah, whether it was something you bought
and tried out, whether it was a hobby. It was
something that you got into. Produce a jarriot you this
happened to you. You didn't suit something.

Speaker 10 (42:32):
Yeah, in high school, I thought I'd try out water polo.
And I'm a short, skinny dude. I can swim. Yeah,
I'm a good swimmer. But yeah, it just wasn't for me.

Speaker 3 (42:44):
So what what did you look like? Funny hat with
the protect this.

Speaker 10 (42:49):
The funny hat with the plastic air cups. I had
two pairs of navy blue speedos with my name on
the back.

Speaker 3 (42:57):
Two.

Speaker 10 (42:58):
You had to wear two because the girls and the
team would like scratch you and claw you.

Speaker 3 (43:02):
And it's really ruthless. Water polo, this great water polo.

Speaker 10 (43:07):
It was coed.

Speaker 3 (43:08):
It was coed.

Speaker 5 (43:08):
I nipped them in the in the in the booby.

Speaker 3 (43:10):
I can see why Jared played water had to be
under someone was on the pressure. Yeah, so if those
girls were pulling out, you know, they were scratching and stuff. Yeah, booby,
a couple of lu booby. So you were in speedos
and the cute little water polo had and you were like,

(43:31):
I just don't suit this whole thing.

Speaker 10 (43:34):
Like my mouth was underwater because I've just started playing.
I could barely tread water enough to keep him, enough
of you to float.

Speaker 3 (43:43):
Do you know what a lot of women will.

Speaker 4 (43:46):
Agree with, Like non skinny jeans, they've just been ripped
away from us. Skinny janess weren't allowed to wear them anymore.

Speaker 3 (43:53):
They're they're old.

Speaker 4 (43:54):
But I don't suit a baggy jan I just don't
suit them. Yeah, when I fill them out a little
bit too much.

Speaker 3 (43:59):
Do you know what I mean?

Speaker 5 (44:00):
Not baggy, but I just can't do it.

Speaker 3 (44:02):
We're asking what you tried out but you didn't suit?
I hundred dancing him as a number read you. Perhaps
one of the most delightful messages we've received, the mark
I tried toasting marshmallows, but by marshmallow and stick caught
on fire as I loaded into the campfire. It wasn't
for me. That's how darling, that's real cute. Gave it

(44:23):
a try and it didn't work. It works talking about
this because I saw a guy riding a motor Motivate yesterday.
He didn't suit riding a motorbike. No, it was like,
this just looks wrong. Maybe a visper for him? He
looked like a vesper rider.

Speaker 4 (44:36):
Yeah, yeah, May we suggest that you could have gone
up to him and been like, excuse me, my dude,
and got on you for getting your motorcycle's license.

Speaker 3 (44:42):
But perhaps a visper, perhaps a visper? Yeah yeah, what
a kick in the gut set to be why that
would be saved up or ticked up? The motivating I'm
just letting to ride. Someone's like tapping on your helmet.
You flip up the visor, like, dude, you're a visper guy?

Speaker 5 (44:58):
Yeah, you know, suit scorny loser, so you can text.

Speaker 3 (45:03):
A nine sex nine sex eight hundred darns at him?
What did you try out? But you didn't suit? A long,
flowy type skirt with a tucked and T shirt. Oh yeah,
I love the look and it was very comfortable. But
every time I saw myself, I looked like a four
year old that grandma addressed and tuck your T shirt right,
A T shirt wouldn't go like that. A lot of
people are saying the mum jean look. Oh yeah, they

(45:24):
can't get into skinny jeans till I die. I don't.
I can be peeling them off your cold did corpse.
So it's so horrible how you see it? Way more
with women, they just get bullied by the younger generation.
Like me and are just like I don't care, like
some guy's like, oh dude, we're not worrying shirts anymore,
like shut up punk women are like yeah, I want

(45:45):
thanks and go home.

Speaker 9 (45:46):

old said something.

Willies are very scary. They said, don't be skined of
a willie. They can't hit you, karate chop them. They're
very you know, they're a bit more bar than Well,

but it's dangerous. The fire still, the fire people, the fire.
I don't know what people see. When you say fireman,

Yeah, someone said, finding things they do so it would
be a much shorter last.

Speaker 5 (48:58):
There's got to be something you just got to find.

Speaker 3 (49:00):

looks good on a visper. Oh we're not coming great

Speaker 4 (51:28):
But he's he is a hard yack a key we
blow who just anyway, this is a se that does
sound interesting. I really loved listening to him. But it
was that kind of thing, you know. They had business
people coming in and talking. Then they had some motivational people.

Speaker 3 (51:39):
They did. Activities was something You're never going to be
running a business, noble.

Speaker 4 (51:43):
Because you don't want to learn about this kind of stuff.
Be where your feet are that was this other thing.

Speaker 3 (51:48):
Of course, I'm going to be where my feet are. There,
your heads ousewhere one's literally got his feet on another chair, my.

Speaker 4 (51:55):
Feet reclined anyway. So I was hosting all of this,
and then Tuesday night they come up.

Speaker 3 (52:05):
With a saying yesterday, I love coming up with little sayings.
None of them really take off. A couple did, and
then I feel like I just came up with them
at the same time somebody else did, and they owned it.
You don't bother the king about the carnival, That's what
I said. Someone messaged me asking if they had won
the Achoir prize. Yeah, and I said, you don't bother

(52:27):
the king about because I'm the king, yeah, and the
carnival is a fun thing that's happening, but nothing to
do with me. Big I got, big Fish. Why didn't
you just say something like, all, thanks for your inquiry,
I'm the king. Bother the king about the carnival. It's
a market. Vaughan Smith, September twenty twenty four.

Speaker 5 (52:46):
Now I'm just googling to make sure it's not already.

Speaker 3 (52:48):
A thing saying it's a stupid saying it's a rare
saying you don't bother the king about the carnival. It's fun.
You sure by all means you look forward to it.
But I want to be the man. It's not saying
you've done well that one. Anyone asks you about anything,
and you can't be bother deallong with it because it
confuses them. It will give enough time to walk away.

(53:08):
They bother the king about the carnival. Okay, I like that.
It sounds like light plangiarism, Like you know, what's someone
about the lion? A lion doesn't bother about Yeah, the
opinions of the subject. No, no, no, no, no, that's
completely different. That's like saying, oh, someone said this about you. Well,
the lion's not concerned with the opinions of the sheep.

(53:30):
But this is similar. What's the story with this fun
thing that I'm that there's fun for me, but not
inconsequential to you.

Speaker 1 (53:39):
No.

Speaker 5 (53:40):
I just asked if we want to put on a horse.
It's not going on a horse.

Speaker 3 (53:43):
Yeah, it's not a motivational calendar.

Speaker 1 (53:46):
It is.

Speaker 3 (53:46):
It is a motivational calendar.

Speaker 4 (53:47):
Anyway, So I got I got back that Tuesday night,
they finished the activities for the day and that night
they all went out on the town and they apparently
they had said this massive night down in the Auckland Viaduct.

Speaker 3 (53:58):
All these Aussie insurance broke its.

Speaker 4 (54:00):
Anyway, so as you know, on Tuesdays getting on it,
I heard a thunker on Tuesdays. You know, I woke
up really early and I was really unwell, and so I, uh,
you know, didn't didn't come to hang out with you guys.

Speaker 5 (54:14):
And then when I got there, I had to go
and do the MC thing. So I was like, oh,
pull myself together.

Speaker 4 (54:17):
And I walked down and I was a little bit late,
and which is bad, and the organized the event looks
at me and she goes, wow, well, wow, yeah, I
heard you had a big night. And I was like, oh,
maybe she's listened to ZM and heard that you guys
mentioned I'm unwell or something like that, and she goes, wow,
who was out on the viaduct last night at two am?

Speaker 5 (54:38):
By rounds of shots for these insurance brokers.

Speaker 3 (54:41):
I said sorry when I vomited started lying on the floor,
and so.

Speaker 4 (54:51):
A whole group of people believed that they were out
with Hailey Sprowl, the EMC of this event from the
Taskmaster New Zealand and from have you been paying attention
to Australia?

Speaker 3 (55:01):
They were out with her?

Speaker 5 (55:04):
Jesus, I'm barely even scratching the surface to be.

Speaker 3 (55:09):
The season five A bother the king about the carnival.
Shut up, it's not working and that works here too.

Speaker 4 (55:15):
Apparently they were out at a bar with someone that
they thought was Hailey Sprout and they were saying to her, oh,
you're at the MC of the event, Da.

Speaker 5 (55:22):
Da da da da, And this chick was like, oh, okay,
it wasn't me.

Speaker 3 (55:26):
I wasn't out at all.

Speaker 1 (55:28):
Or what you got?

Speaker 3 (55:29):
You've got a doppel gang.

Speaker 1 (55:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (55:30):
So then I went up on stage to start the
morning I second morning, everyone, how's your night? And I
heard that someone got kicked out of Danny Doolan's and
I went into it and they said.

Speaker 3 (55:37):
By the way, who who was out with me last night?
And this whole table was like.

Speaker 4 (55:42):
Whoa And I was like, guys, it wasn't me, And
they genuinely didn't realize they were.

Speaker 3 (55:48):
Like, huh, and they thought that it was me this
whole time? Was she was she someone at the conference
insurance brokers?

Speaker 4 (55:55):
And then to be fair, I was like, that wasn't me,
someone else, And I said we were well for the drunks,
but I didn't buy them for you. I wasn't out
at all. They were so shocked that they've been out
with this person. And then someone found it, like this
is her and I looked and approaches she with this
like blonde here, low, bunting around, stunning out of ten.

Speaker 3 (56:13):
Yep, perky, But you know that was the only different
better And she didn't look like you. She straight up
looked like me. Was I was like, was that confronting? Yeah?
I was like, I actually get this. I get it.
Have you ever seen someone in public that kind of
looks like you? And he just like this weird weird
over the road from us. He's got the same lawmar

(56:34):
as me. We're out on the side of the road
and I looked at him and he looked at me,
and we're just like, I think we're friends. I guess
we kissed. Do we meet in the middle of I
didn't care kiss your double gang out otherwise they're steal
your soul, right, Yeah, it's.

Speaker 10 (56:51):
How it works.

Speaker 3 (56:51):
I can't wait to see her.

Speaker 1 (56:52):
Again play well.

Speaker 3 (56:58):
She's an Olympic athlete, a dame, and now a published
children's author. Lisa Carrington is in studio.

Speaker 5 (57:06):
Good morning, Good morning, thanks for having me.

Speaker 3 (57:08):
Thank you for coming in to talk about your book,
Lisa Carrington Chases a Champion in both English and Today.

Speaker 7 (57:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (57:15):
It makes really excited for you guys to have them.

Speaker 3 (57:17):
This is a different cover too, so you've got the
whole collectors. Yeah, vibe people are gonna have to get both.
Illustration do you call them? Astrations? Are incredible?

Speaker 5 (57:28):
Yeah, they're amazing. I think my parents look.

Speaker 3 (57:31):
Exactly like because does your dad still have the mustache?

Speaker 5 (57:36):
He doesn't, but I'm sure you'll grow it back.

Speaker 3 (57:38):
Yeah, he's got Also, Vaughan thinks he's in in one
of these pictures. There's someone in a Raglan teaser because
you grew up and I hope this is like the
beach where I holidayed as a child. And then tell
me that kid in the background isn't me. Glasses that's
what I had here around here. That's Vaughn. I mean
you sort of nerdy them, you I would have been

(58:00):
up the front being like, yep, you would have been
maybe three. I think. So I don't think we don't
have a slight age. Yeah, I think this is might
not be you.

Speaker 7 (58:09):
You can see yourself in any character in that book.
You could even see yourself and.

Speaker 3 (58:12):
Me right, yes, I see myself as a real Rob Wodell.
Now in one of these you're lifting one hundred kg's
with one arm. Yeah, as an eight year insane? Isn't
can you hear some things you might not know about Lisa?
How much way can you pick up in one arm?
Or bench press? And so Fletcher and I was saying,

(58:34):
is that you bench press and pick it up with
one arm? No?

Speaker 7 (58:36):
That yeah, that's just bench pressing, that's beach pressing huns.

Speaker 3 (58:40):
Yeah, that's so impressing. Also, I do take I understood
those little one favorite food meal Asian fusion food, especially
tyred curry. I'd say there's not a lot of fusion
about that.

Speaker 8 (58:49):
That's just.

Speaker 3 (58:53):
Depending on it, depending on it. So this follows an
eight year old Lisa Carrington. Is that when this reen begun?
Is that why it's eight year old you in this book? No?

Speaker 5 (59:04):
I think when I think about when I was younger.

Speaker 7 (59:07):
I think eighty years old kind of is the age
that I think of, and also the book is designed
for that kind of age as well. Yeah, so those
are the kind of the earliest memories I have of
starting to do sport and start enjoying it and get
a little bit competitive.

Speaker 3 (59:25):
Yeah, and your brothers are in this as well. There's
a garage scene where you're all like working out and
your brother's talking about his quads. Was that sort of
like an actual memories your brother like showing off about
his quads?

Speaker 7 (59:35):
Yeah, I mean my brother he's a personal trainer, so
he really would. That's I think that's who.

Speaker 5 (59:42):
He was when he was that age. Anyone in your
family slab.

Speaker 3 (59:47):
Me lest personal training? Does anybody just like just chill?
Did you actually have like the vision board? Was? Is
this like reflective of Yeah? It as a kid?

Speaker 7 (01:00:00):
Yeah, I mean obviously it's adjusted for today, but yeah,
I think it's so important as a kid to kind
of Probably I didn't really know what I was doing.
It was just kind of cutting out magazines, putting goals down.
Probably some like spelling goals in there, too, but yeah,
it's I guess that's kind of techniques to kind of help,
you know, adults even, you know, and kids to go

(01:00:23):
for something, to have a dream, to have a goal.

Speaker 3 (01:00:26):
Yeah, this is and so on the vision board, I've
got to ask because he's a golden retriever. Here is
this Colin's contribution to the bard.

Speaker 5 (01:00:33):
Yeah, that's how he wants to be. Colin's a part
of it. Yeah, that Colin.

Speaker 3 (01:00:40):
How is Colin? He's good? Is your dog?

Speaker 5 (01:00:44):
Yeah, sorry, he's messing.

Speaker 3 (01:00:51):
Me right now. Yeah, well French has a cat called
Murray and you have a dog called Colin, So everyone
around here it's important to have human names for animals
really a part of the family. Yeah, and tell us
like that. It's pretty cool to see Relate released simultaneously
with a with a different cover, the today A version,
because you're on your own today or the like journey. Yeah,

(01:01:11):
that's right.

Speaker 7 (01:01:12):
So with my publisher who they translated the tod version,
and so it was so important to me that you know,
I could reach every could every home in New Zealand.
So and you know, being Maldy, it's part of my heritage.
And yeah, I absolutely I am on my journey to
speaking today. So yeah, it's it's a long one, but

(01:01:35):
I now have a little bit more time.

Speaker 3 (01:01:37):
Yeah, yep, when you're not training this much, it's hard
to jewelingo when both your hands are holding paddles the whole.

Speaker 5 (01:01:44):
That's it's not maldi on due lingo.

Speaker 3 (01:01:46):
So it's is there go on one? Was it? I've
even been on it for like so long. It's gonna
once so long and it's gonna, it's gonna. How's that
Spanish going part?

Speaker 8 (01:02:00):
When?

Speaker 3 (01:02:03):
So the Olympics obviously have just finished. Were they your
favorite ones? Take a favorite Olympics? That's quite tough. I
think there are al so many of them.

Speaker 7 (01:02:16):
Yeah, I thought I was only ever going to be
a I didn't even know if I could go to
one to start with, or even make a New Zealand team.
So I think Paris was incredible. I think what we
managed to do in the K four that's incredible. Being
the first country outside of Europe to win a gold
medal in the K four, like, I think that's there
is a dream. And then to win all all medals

(01:02:40):
all three So yeah, it's a lot of work when
in but I mean I don't want you know, like
who's your favorite kid?

Speaker 3 (01:02:47):
Like, but not that I have. Yeah, the gold medals
at the different Olympics. Oh yeah, which is the night
because we saw fins. Yeah, gold medal, pretty cool design
this medal, yeah with friend and it had a bit
of the Eiffel Tower in it. Like that's cool, You've
got a bit of the Eiffel Tower.

Speaker 8 (01:03:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:03:04):
I think they try to outdo each other. Yeah, every Olympics.
I mean in London, that was the first time we
had the really big heavy medal.

Speaker 3 (01:03:12):
And that's got a bit of a spice girl in it. Yeah.
Yeah yeah. So then l A. I mean everybody's asking
how do you have the energy because I just like
looking into the Olympics. After Olympics, I'm like, you must
be so tired just to go to work and do

(01:03:34):
nothing instead of the disk.

Speaker 7 (01:03:36):
Yeah, I mean doing what we do is you know,
striving to be better every day. But I guess it's
kind of it's enjoyable. You got to find what you
enjoy out of it. The challenge. I love getting better,
even if it's the smallest fit every day. So yeah,
I think the next little I don't know, next few months.

(01:03:56):
I'm just kind of I really just want to reminisce
and all some Paris olympicks hang out with family that
I don't really get to spend a lot of time
with and energy where than friends. So and then yeah,
like I want to make a really good decision going forward,
and I've got to be prepared and understand what the
next phase or what it looks like for me.

Speaker 3 (01:04:16):
So yeah, I think it's I mean, you already have
more gold medals and a lot of countries, like have
you looked at that list of countries that don't have any?
Oh no, yes, you could go on holiday to a
Ruba and be like, I've got more medals than you.
They've got nuns significantly more, Yes, more than a rub Yeah,

(01:04:38):
you could do all the countries from the Beach Boys song. Yeah,
jaic skip them. Also, when you're booking a plane ticket,
do you on the pull down menu select.

Speaker 5 (01:04:50):
Dame only if I want to try it an upgrade?

Speaker 3 (01:04:54):

get I still love freestyle, Yeah, freestyle love and upgrade. Well,

Lisa Carrington Chase is a champion, and we've said that
illustrations are amazing, like it's Yeah, I've been through it
multiple times in both English and today. I don't speak today,

(01:05:16):
but I've been reading through it and you spot something
different in the pictures every time. I like that about
a picture book, and that makes it rereadable for adults. Yeah,
because when they get to spot something on the eight
thousand and three with their kids, something different they haven't
spotted the other time. Damn, Lisa Carrington, thank you for

on a trail and this lady comes up to me

impacted you that you got fresh gear and that you're
freshening up or you walked.

Speaker 3 (01:09:42):
Did start the conversation with please don't mention this on
the podcast. All the radio tough bikies here we are
twice and they didn't say anything to you. You're supposed
to smell at the gym at the end, right, the
lowest at the end, and stinking. No, I walk out
stinking and it gets all in the clothes and it's yeah.
And I washed the gym gear every time. Yeah, it

(01:10:04):
never gets left in the car.

Speaker 4 (01:10:05):
I don't even put mine in the washing basket, straight
in the machine. Yes, same, so that it doesn't poison
the rest of the bar, so it doesn't taint.

Speaker 3 (01:10:12):
Taint. The bus got turned off because I always at
the gym gear in. But I put this little sweaty
towel with the other towels and shout, I said, you'll
taint you. The towel tastes the towels, and the towels
are only for cleaning afterwards. That one's collecting all the
sweet Did you post workout yesterday? Did you sniff?

Speaker 10 (01:10:27):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:10:27):
You sniffing? Are you were fine? I put on both

It is amazing how you can say one thing to
wed and you don't even really think and was shout.
I said to me, I reckon smells your insecurity because
you don't really care about everything else.

Speaker 1 (01:10:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:10:49):
Right, you know you've always not like smelling. Yeah. We
had this thing once where one day we moved this
massive pile of mulch and at the end of the
day we're sitting there and now thing was we sit
now stinking, we have a drink. And I sat there
for a while and they had a drink. I was like,
I can't do it, really, go and shower because I
don't like sometimes I sort of like it, like if
I've got to sit on my own felth. I'm like, yeah, yu, yeah,

(01:11:12):
you're appreciate because you're like, that's the smell of a
hard days. Yeah, yeah, yea. But after a little bit,
how good is it? Going to feel taken, go and
have a shower. Well, look, you.

Speaker 5 (01:11:23):
Don't smell vorn. Well, I've never smelled. You're smelling bad.

Speaker 3 (01:11:28):
Yeah, I'm feeling neutral like Fletchlot's on perfume and people
floating like pew. There's something about that's only twink bait.
That's that one. Because we use that neutral base off.
We just continued to.

Speaker 5 (01:11:42):
Smell the boring you were. Oh man, that that twisted
me up inside.

Speaker 3 (01:11:48):
I was like, you can't have that again. Studio just
flying into the windows it now. Yeah, the only way
we can cope with the.

Speaker 4 (01:11:58):
Workdays flat Thorne and Hailey.

Speaker 3 (01:12:03):
Fact of the Day, Day day day day Do do
do do do do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do do do do
do doo. Today's Fact of the Day. Well, this week's
Fact of the Day theme is the Paralympics, which is

(01:12:23):
an amazing event and I recommend watching a bit of
it on TV. One's doing after seven sharp They do
kind of the evening's Paralympic recap.

Speaker 4 (01:12:31):
Also, Instagram accounts still pop on the Olympics and Paralympics account.

Speaker 3 (01:12:36):
Yeah, there's so much good content in the Paralympics. Amazing people. Ah,
but I wanted to talk today about cheating at the Paralympics,
as there has been some cheating cheaty him at the Paralympics.
I'll go through a few of them, but I want
to finish on the big one. At Tokyo twenty twenty
Paralympics game discus through a venud Kumar was banned for

(01:12:56):
two years after we found he intentionally misread into these disabilities.
Oh okay, what like hiding an arm or something. He
just ducked under his jumper like when you're a kid
and you were like to see that. Yeah, No, he
was about his intellectual disabilities and such, right, And that's

(01:13:18):
that's quite a common thing.

Speaker 4 (01:13:20):
Because they class the may based on yes, disabilities.

Speaker 3 (01:13:24):
Yes, so you're trying to get a little hid start
and they're constantly reclassifying because if you watch any of
the Paralympics, there'll be a little code eighteen or something, yeah,
in a letter and some some numbers and they reclassifying them.
And a couple of times, controversially right before the Paralympics starts,
they can reclassify it right up to there. Well, that's

(01:13:47):
got to be annoying if you've been training in that class. Yeah,
well exactly, yeah, and then you've popped into a different class.
But I think the most interesting Paralympic scandal that I
could find, there's a bit of as much doping. Yep,
there's doping in the Paralympics. God yeah, yeah, and they
tested it more speed and strength. However, it was the

(01:14:08):
Paralympics in Sydney that already had numerous positive drug tests,
but Spain was stripped of their gold medal and basketball
after it turns out their team had been exposed by
an undercovered journalist who had infiltrated and become part of
their team, claiming to have an intellectual disability in an

(01:14:29):
effort to oursse the fact, he believed that other people
on the team were also lying about their intellectual disabilities.
Oh my god, so this guy makes the team, Carlos ribergorod.

Speaker 4 (01:14:41):
We had to be good at basketball, have already had
basketball skills?

Speaker 3 (01:14:47):
Yes. He revealed to Spanish Burtist's magazine that most of
his colleagues in the team had not undergone medical and
medical tests to ensure they had a disability, and most
of them were lying about the disabilities. They had lists it.
So the IBS investigated the claims and found that the
required mental tests would show that the competitors have an
IQ of no more than seventy five was not ever

(01:15:08):
conducted by the Spanish Paralympic committee. And he also alleged
that Spanish participants in table tennis, track and field and
swimming events were not disabled. Five medals were won for
udulently and had to be returned. Naughty Spain. Naughty, naughty Spain.
But hey, yeah, yeah, I know, but delicious pay Well,

(01:15:30):
let's not tarnish all of Spain with us. Yeah, some
naughty Spanish people running through. So ten of the twelve
competitors and the winning team were not disabled. One out
of twelve, including the journalist who was one. Naughty Spain, Spain,
Naughty Spain. So today's fact of the Days. There's cheating

(01:15:53):
at the Paralympics as well, and perhaps no larger than
the two thousand Summer Paralympics in Sydney, when a Spanish
basketball team who won goal naughty, naughty. Very few of
them ever had anything that would qualify them for the Paralympics.
Fact of the day, day day day day, Du do

(01:16:15):
do do do do Do Do Do Do Do Do
Do Do Do Do Do do do.

Speaker 4 (01:16:26):
Play play well, I mean the cost of livings going up,
wages need to go up to match it, so we
can afford things like cauliflower and tampons.

Speaker 3 (01:16:38):
Yeah, that's on my list yep.

Speaker 4 (01:16:42):
But people are absolutely shocked there's a babysitting agency. So
to be fair, this isn't just your regular like, oh,
I know so and So's kid and.

Speaker 3 (01:16:48):
You know, come over cash for cash. Yeah, and it's an.

Speaker 5 (01:16:52):
Auckland babysitting agencies.

Speaker 4 (01:16:53):
Everything's a little bit more expensive here, saying that some
babysitters are earning roughly between thirty to fifty dollars an hour.

Speaker 3 (01:17:02):
Oh my god, I that's crazy money. It's so wild
to me. When's the last time you got? Because you'll
get the grandparents to look after them. But if you
paid someone, what would you be paying them? Now? What
did you the last time you did? Sort of max
out at one hundred bucks a night, but that's kind
of like get home at eleven, Yeah, one hundred bucks

(01:17:25):
and that like cash money.

Speaker 4 (01:17:27):
It would be amazing money to a teenager. Now being
an agency, right that have like they do police checks
and they're slightly older.

Speaker 3 (01:17:33):
And there'll be a cart car.

Speaker 4 (01:17:35):
It'd be a little cart. But we were laughing because
we were like, oh my god. When we did our
kid jobs.

Speaker 3 (01:17:40):
When I did like a paper and I think I
got a dollar. I can't remember, slip.

Speaker 4 (01:17:45):
On the paper on the evening post and it would
have a little payslip on a Friday, and I'm always
it was like three dollars forty or something for.

Speaker 3 (01:17:52):
The week, like I'm sure it was for the week.
Why it was so bad?

Speaker 4 (01:17:56):
Or maybe seven bucks. I can't remember really specific bad number.

Speaker 3 (01:18:00):
And this is what we wanted to ask this morning.
As as a kid, how much did you get paid?
Like what was your child pay rate?

Speaker 5 (01:18:07):
Yeah, because we all did terrible jobs.

Speaker 4 (01:18:10):
But even when I was like a sixteen seventeen year old,
I worked for my dad ten dollars an hour.

Speaker 3 (01:18:15):
Cat that was it was it on the table on
the table, ten dot that was at the time.

Speaker 5 (01:18:21):
Ten bucks, And I was like, ah, she flushed, fifty.

Speaker 3 (01:18:25):
She flushed, she flushed. Producer Jared, you had a quite
a low pay rate, maybe below minimum a legal almost
way should we say slave labor.

Speaker 10 (01:18:35):
I almost want to say it's the lowest pay rate
you could get. Okay, Yeah, I used to get one
cent per orange that I picked up from We had
like twenty orange trees at my old house.

Speaker 3 (01:18:45):
Oh okay, so there were.

Speaker 10 (01:18:46):
Just hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of oranges on the ground.

Speaker 3 (01:18:49):
Just if you worked all day, how much would you
make maybe a dollar fifty your day. That's actually when
you think one cent per orange if you could be cranking,
you know, to a second transish you're picking up oranges. No,
they're under a tree.

Speaker 10 (01:19:10):
Yeah, they're all under a tree.

Speaker 3 (01:19:11):
Very treasure. Damn my hands, and get a big bucket
and I crawl around no no, no, no no, chuck
them in real quick. Yeah right, but still a dollar
for an hour or so's work.

Speaker 10 (01:19:25):
Yeah, lay, and then I had to go back inside
and do my homework.

Speaker 3 (01:19:28):
You lame. This is so that's a bad pay rate.
It's terrible. Would you got would you've got paid on
the farm or that's just it? Brandad used to pass
ten bucks an hour cash. Yeah, and we just go
out grub thistles and then just find a nice place
to sit for a bit. What grab thistles? What is that?
So you take the motorbike out with a trailer on
and you'd find thistles and you had a grubber and

(01:19:49):
you'd hack to grub grub cuckle nah, because you'd want
to hack it into the ground and pull them out
and then chuck the whole thistle on the trailer so
that I didn't go to see grubber contraption. It was
like a flat end right hack okay, and the other
end had like.

Speaker 4 (01:20:04):
Four a homement digging up plants. Okay, images, Oh.

Speaker 3 (01:20:11):
Yeah, and what would you feel? Hoe like that's a home,
isn't it. It's a grubber. It's more like a whole axe.
You know.

Speaker 5 (01:20:20):
It's so childish.

Speaker 3 (01:20:21):
So okay, we want to know from me this morning.
How much did you get paid as a kid for
the horrible jobs that you had to do? Or maybe
you it was opposite for you, You got paid loads
because you were I don't know, like Diddy's angel.

Speaker 5 (01:20:33):
Did his angel you have fifty bucks to go wash
a mug or something.

Speaker 3 (01:20:36):
When you're a kid and there was a job that
just required someone small and it was horrible dark spot
that going the only one that'll fit go under the
deck or in the ceiling sea. Yay for the spiderwib
no thang, no thing. We want to know your childhood
pay rate because babysitters are making thirty to fifty bucks
an hour ye and some cities around the country. It

(01:20:58):
is wild although that through an agency that's not a
cashy under the table, I know.

Speaker 4 (01:21:02):
But they're also saying similar comparative in England and Australia.
Oh wow, like this is what we're paying babysitters. Just
another reason to not have a child.

Speaker 3 (01:21:11):
I remember in my parents didn't go up very often,
but if they wanted to go out and their friends
are like, we can't find a babysitter, my parents would
just been like, well, we'll just drop the kids off
there on the way, we'll pick them up on the
way home. And we just had to stack somebody else's
house with that ditch your free.

Speaker 5 (01:21:23):
Yeah, it would just ditch you.

Speaker 3 (01:21:26):
So we want to know your childhood pay rate. Ben,
you were on three dollars an hour yep.

Speaker 2 (01:21:32):
I was working at my grandfather's drum shop and uh
and I had a polishing cloth and a.

Speaker 9 (01:21:39):
Can of pleedge.

Speaker 2 (01:21:39):
I'd run around and clean everything, but I wasn't able
to play any drums because it made.

Speaker 9 (01:21:43):
Too much noise.

Speaker 3 (01:21:44):
Right when you said drum shop, I was like, well,
in my mind it was big steel drums. Yeah yeah,
but these actual musicals drum yeah right.

Speaker 2 (01:21:53):
It was pretty tempting to grab some sticks out of
the drawer and then go and have a But the
best about the job while they used to look stamps
for the end of the month when you send his
bills out, Yeah, well before they.

Speaker 3 (01:22:06):
Were when you still like them, we'll put them on
those stupid rollers.

Speaker 8 (01:22:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:22:11):
So I was probably I was like eleven, so I
was born in seventy three, so it was not like
a mid eighties job.

Speaker 3 (01:22:16):
Yeah, but that was the highlight of the day. It's like,
do you reckon?

Speaker 4 (01:22:20):
It's sounding impacted your brain in any way? Licking all
those stamps, that looking up that standards.

Speaker 2 (01:22:27):

every Thomas stamps open to run to the cabin and
hide and have a little.

Speaker 3 (01:22:33):

I'm working at the swimming pools, teaching kids swimming listens
and working in the Lolli shop.

Speaker 3 (01:22:47):
I feel value.

Speaker 6 (01:22:50):
It was like a council.

Speaker 3 (01:22:52):
It was under the table and it's like a council.
They want to get away under the table home. No,
you'd never get a with that, now, would you? At
the table with the council brilliant like.

Speaker 10 (01:23:05):
A little you know, like the little bank bags where
you were like, yeah, seventy dollars.

Speaker 3 (01:23:10):
Cash at the end of the week. And it was amazing,
like how much funny I've ever had in my life?

Speaker 1 (01:23:14):
Felt like.

Speaker 3 (01:23:17):
Twelve. Yeah, it's a lot of money, isn't it. S
Thank you Mary? What were you on?

Speaker 8 (01:23:23):
Oh, we weren't hourly, but so we were quite poor
growing up. And our mum said to us that if
we've went to pit blackberries, that would get ten dollars
a bucket or one dollar a jug, okay, And yeah,
well it sounded good. The boys just ate all the
blackberries and they had like maybe one jug, and us

(01:23:46):
girls teamed up and we did about ten buckets and
we were thinking year. But yeah, yeah, I think she
gave us about a couple of dollars each. Maybe.

Speaker 3 (01:23:56):
Oh she was really shot though I don't that. I
don't think mum was expecting that many buckets of black
beer that they weren't she'd be like, we're lucky to
get a cup buckets woman, Mary, thank you. Some messages
in at the other end of the scale, my daughters
in the US at the moment. Working at a resort,

(01:24:17):
she got to know an x NFL player and his family.
They asked to do some babysitting for them on her
days off. She did two hours babysitting. They gave her
five hundred Yuis dollars. What that is insane being a
teenager in getting that and being like tire now, yeah, yeah, yeah,
imagine putting your parents put an aset of value on
your life. We want to know what your childhood pay

(01:24:38):
rate was, because babysitting now is up to thirty to
fifty bucks an hour, which is no New Zealand. Wow,
it's wild just reading one what you were trusted to
do for less than five dollars an hour yees, which
is wild. And also on really important stuff people saying
what they spend that money on when they were kids.
The teenager I was on fourte twenty five at a

(01:25:00):
supermarket which was back basically a pack of Sun Sun
Hill Red twenties.

Speaker 2 (01:25:04):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (01:25:07):
I trained adults in checkout and how to use the Lotto,
the Loto Kiosk. They got paid more because they were older. Yeah, yeah,
that's incredible, that's insane. Yeah, somebody said, I wish now
my hourly rate was the equivalent of a pack of
twenty seventies, because it's so much more. It would actually
be a bloody good hourly rate. Yeah. I worked at
a supermarket and I was fourteen for eight dollars an hour.

(01:25:29):
It felt like a ton of cash at the time. Yeah,
because you just don't have rent, than have rains, you
never anything. It was all free money. You just had
to get your sun Hill twenties. Ah, my fourteen year
old works at a cafe after school and gets twenty
two dollars an hour cash. When I was at fourteen,
I got five dollars an hour at a supermarket for

(01:25:50):
four tax I love this. Graham wasn't a fan of
fly spray.

Speaker 4 (01:25:55):
We'd go around the house with fly swats ten cents
per fly and yes, there was a body count done
at the end of the day so we can get
paid accordingly.

Speaker 3 (01:26:01):
Collect them. I remember anything you were in charge of,
like picking things up, you put them in a jar.
You really had to keep proof otherwise they wouldn't pay
you see that just make if that was me, I
would then go and get like some old meat and
leave it out the back and cats flies and start breeding.

Speaker 5 (01:26:20):
That's smart.

Speaker 3 (01:26:25):
And then your first pay spin on fly spray years
and you've got a you know, you've got an end
of supply of flies and your labor cross the right down.
Bring them from home straight, contain the telly on in
front of the telly, making buckets off souper. Back in
the day, I used to get fifty cents for every

(01:26:48):
gray hero I pulled out of my dad's head so
behind them when he watched TV at night. You'd have
to put those on a black piece of paper so
you could count them individually. Five dollars a week as
a tanager for picking up the dogs shit all over
the lawn would have been sweat except the look dog
like going nuts on the free trees and it kept
giving them the shts. Yeah, oh, we've got a golden
retriever too. That was my first thought, you said. When
my wife said, oh my god, lovely the plum treat

(01:27:10):
that in a blossom spru spring, I was like, yeah, cool,
I'm looking forward to the dog eating cages. Of plums
and then leaving cages of plum running plumpers everywhere.

Speaker 4 (01:27:18):
Yeah, the shout out to the mums that did the job,
because when I used to get bored of my paper run,
I'd just be like, I can't do it. I don't
want to hang out with my mum used to do out,
someone else said, or my uncle used to own a
sports shop. My weekly job was washing the socks that
people tried.

Speaker 3 (01:27:30):
On the shoes with ten dollars a week, with pretty
easy money money.

Speaker 5 (01:27:35):
But to be fair, my mum washed and hung them out. Oh,
shout out mum.

Speaker 3 (01:27:40):
I just realized they did the whole show with my
headphones on backwards. So well that means the shows backwards
in isn't it. We're gonna have to play this in reverse?
Or should we speak in reverse? And hopefully they'll they'll
work out the other way
