Speaker 1 (00:00):
And whenever. Welcome along to the Unnamed Podcast, Monday, the
twenty fifth of November twenty twenty four. Oh. This is
a cover of Crowded House, who played in the weekend
at Spuck Arena and I believe as well at the
former Claudlands Showgrounds. I'm not going to call it. It's
(00:21):
a new Glowworm or glow Bug, Glowbug Arena or whatever
it's called.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
It's Cladlands, it's bloody Claudland's Claudland's Showgrounds.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
Yep, yeah, it's and it is felthy. It's quite new.
Now have you been there recently? He has? That's actually
those are quite nice.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
He's nothing left of than what we used to do
to it, okay back in the day, back in kind
of school ball, yes days, it's.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
They had the darts there and all Sorts's actually quite
flash oh okay, because yeah, when we had our school
ball there back in the nineties, there were some horrific
crimes committed. Well, first of all, we were allowed to
drink past.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Yeah, you got given drink tokens and you could just
crack a beer and walk around with a white head
bottle of white head it in your hand. Yeah, I
think there was maybe some sort of premixes for the ladies.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Yeah, I actually I can't remember what females. By the way,
acc here Julane joins us on the podcast today and
the Notorious Pansman Joel Harrison pushing the buttons.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Yeah, it's a weird feeling actually being in Mash's hot set.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Have you guys seen out Biggs water bottles? I know
how big is Mash's water bottle. It carries around the
water bottle that it's a statement thing. I'm not sure
what it is he's making up for something else.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
I mean, we did allude to the fat he's got
a tiny pecker and he's just carrying that around in
the hope that it might distract people. And also he's
very very do with me any sort of personality, so
hopefully building a personality around a large drink bottle might
help as well.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
I just think it's fine if you go into the
desert for five days like that makes a lot of
sense to me. Taking that giant it's probably one point
five liters maybe of water. It doesn't have anything else,
I know, it's just water. So if you go into
the desert for five days, totally understand but you're hanging
out in a radio studio. You're ten meters away from
a kitchen and a tap which has filtered water and glasses.
(02:01):
Glass were yeah, and quite nice glass were too. It's
just been upgraded. You're not going You're not going to dehydrate.
I mean, look the pants man, who's in the same
generation as MESHI, twenty five year old. You've got a
glass of water and he pantsman like a normal person.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Yeah, I'll be honest. I do have a water bottle
as well. Oh god, it's not as it's.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
A one Leader. Oh god, it's a one Leader water bottle.
It's not a Stanley one, is it.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
No, it's a yitty. It was gifted. It was a
gift my girlfriend's mum as well. Okay, it's good. I
often forget it, but I haven't washed it in a while.
But it's good for the gym. You know, if you
go to the gym, you can take it there, you know,
to drink out of it. Like you Saiday, I went to
the gym. Forgot the water bottle. Was having a drink
out of the bubbler, the little water fountain.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
It's like mambla.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
My nose was touching the How many noses have touched
the water founder And that's kind of why. But then
at work, you know, I just drink out of the
level and you glass where we have Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Well we've got lovely glass. We're here. But you know,
even if you went to the gym, I know this
might seem crazy, but if you go to the gym
and you don't have a drink bottle and you don't
have a drink while you're at the gym, you're going
to be all right. While you'll survive. You can survive
for much longer without water than what you think. Yeah,
but aren't you supposed to be keeping yourself hydrated when
(03:12):
you're at the gym? No? Afterwards, yeah, afterwards, I mean,
doesn't you don't need to while you're while you're doing
the exercise, you don't need to be hydrated.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
That's a big drink bottle. I got you big drinks. Yeah,
big yetti, big frank green.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
My concern is that there's going to be somethingme that
that drink bottle is going to burst its banks and
it's going to create a flood in here. Because if
it does, it's all there's a lot of very expensive
electrical equipment in the studio.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
To be honest, it's probably better that Mashi's got it
in a water bottle rather than the glass, because what
if you spilt the glass onto the desk.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yeah, look, I mean there's some horrible crimes being committed
on this in the studio. In terms of a liquid
I remember putting some rose through a soda stream machine
to try and make bubbly rose burst everywhere.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
Yeah, that was a shocker.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Actually, yeah that didn't down well because you stuck it
on social media and immediately I had the whole technical
team on me abusing me for what I've done.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Ye, well, fair enough, that was a shocking thing to do.
You just ruined this that disc with tens of thousands
of dollars. I don't know about this one. It's pretty
old thousand disc when it first came and was nice.
Really is it ship now? Is that? It looks pretty new?
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Going back to Hamilton, back to the Cludlands showgrounds. So
what we had the reason we played that song there
because there was a a mosha and a fight at
a crowded house concert. What songs are you moshing to
at crowded house? I see red? But that's the split
in song. Yep, I see reads about the other fast
(04:47):
pace like the rest of them are real.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Weather with you? Would you would you mush to weather
with you? What's locked out? You can you put that
on one and a half and speed it up? I
mean you can't really monster that's locked the out of
credit House tune or no they like that? Oh yeah, yeah,
that's that's credit house tune. I'mashed to that. Yeah, what
(05:14):
about something so strong? So you're not washing to that?
You're not washing to any of it? You could probably
mosh so apparently there was four seasons in one day.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Fight started because apparently they restricted dancing. They said no
dancing and your seat or in the aisles. So, but
it's Hamilton. No one dances in Hamilton unless it's three
a year at the outback and you're looking to pull.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Yeah, it's only time, that's true. There is an underground
dance community in Hamilton, really, Yeah, Pensman's been involved in it.
Have you give me some d m B.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Yeah, there's a few few DMB clubs there, but of
a bit of an up and coming thing around the
region as well, I guess, yeah, sort of more white
so not Hamilton.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
What was the old student radio station in Wakato. There
was a UFM what was it UFM? What was it called?
Became um it was something not r D O. There's
there's ru this BFM, this radioactive what was it called
the Hamilton one. It had an underground there was an
underground dance community operating. Was there, Yeah, very very truck
(06:23):
of speed focused and probably some mushies in there as well,
but of acid. I remember I went to a dance
party once at the university in Wakator Contact Contact that
said it was sponsored by CONTACTFM, and it was in
this call and that put some cellophane up around the
(06:46):
outside of it and there was about twenty five people
just absolutely chewing their faces off and it had a
really bad It was really bad. So it was it
was not It was not a good gig. Let me
just say it was my one dance party experience in
the whittle was not a not a good time.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Well, they used to have I didn't. It was so
much dance, but there was kind of a comedy. Rock
bands like Mobile Study Unit did you ever remember and
their first their first debut album, Blood Spew.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
No, I don't remember.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
In the cover of blood Spew, the lead singer of
Mobile Study Unit outside the bank spewing just blood all
over the floor Stewey's pie cart. Was there one of
their big songs, My friend will miss your homestyle cooking.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Too? Well?
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Yeah, were you the leads by my friend?
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Was it dancing at that school fall that you guys
went to Hell? Yeah? The ball, Yeah, there was dancing
at the ball. Grinding. Yeah, there was a lot of grinding,
vomiting toilets, that's for sure, because unfortunately they had to
shut the bar because everyone got their hands on a
roll of them ones. Yeah. I was part of the
group who got their hands on the admitt ones. But
there were we bought four different colors. We bought the green,
(08:05):
the red, the orange, and the blue. Yep, just in case,
because we knew from last year they used admitt one
drink tickets. We allowed four drinks each, which seems quite
a lot. There's quite a lot. She for like sixteen
year old girls. There were six form girls, so there
were year twelve girls there, and actually there were year
hold on Year eleven girls who were invited by the
(08:26):
year twelve boys. Yes, her having four drinks? How were they?
How was that legal?
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Well, it was supervised because every in the last year,
like all the parents were invited as well, so there
was a considerable amount of pearance.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
No, yeah, there were in our parents. Yeah yeah, but
they were just in the shadows. The parents were massive perceeds. Yeah,
oh absolutely, that was theirs thing I noticed when I
went to school and the wakato was just we're going
around to Jeremy Dunn's place actually and and but Gary,
but Gary has his stepfather, Great New Zealander turned up
(09:05):
with the slabber Whiteado cans slaber purse, chocked it on
the table, said here you go, boys for your boots,
and there's like four of us and I was like,
that's this pretty good, And so we just sort of
laid into the Whiteado cans and like then I think
he went and got some more for us after that.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Well they're kind of mid strengths four percenters though, aren't they.
So it's a good introduction. Welcome to the Whiteadow.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
There was no you're allowed to drink driving those days. Yeah,
different rules around drink driving. Should we take a break.
Let's take a break and come back with more drink
driving antics after this, and we're back. Great to be back. Yes,
so white kadow. Oh look at I mean growing up.
(09:51):
Great place to grow up, you know.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
I floated down that river most weekends on in a tube. Occasionally,
if you were lucky enough, a dairy cow would float past, dead, bloated, probably.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Washed down from one of the merry dairy farms that
didn't fence off the whack at the river anyway.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
It would float down, But the challenge was you'd get
next to it and surf the dead cow. So you've
got to get onto the carcass, get your balance right,
and then you stand and you basically surf the bloated,
dead carcass of a dairy Usually freezing's a bit bigger
than the bigger than the they're the other ones jersey
your jerseys, but small freezings blow up quite bag. So
(10:31):
you jump on that, surf that down. When you're done,
jump off from the other side of the river.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
How far do you reckon? You'd got on the back
of a freezing Probably I reckon.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Did you ever get to Leamington, No, No, we just
it was kind of more up and down set the
CBD area, Cambridge Day's Park around there, get into it.
Didn't get to Cambridge, no, but We also used to
do brown eyes and helicopter willies at the White Pat Delta.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Boat. It used to up and down. These are good times.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Yeah, that were great times. They called the police on
us for doing brown eyes to the tourists, which I
thought was just it was good on was fun.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Yeah, what do the police have to say?
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Oh, they chased us. We got away from them. I
think they were just wanted to scare us. But they
called the police on us. We're just doing We were
just kids doing brown eyes and tourists.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Yeah, exactly how many? Why are you White Part Delta?
It wasn't much to do.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
The White Pat Delta was a paddle steamboat that had
two two hundred horse power outboards on the.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Back and a fake a fake wheel on the side
that pretending. So if you put your top five tourist
attractions in Hamilton, Hamilton Gardens.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Hamilton Gardens, Fairfield Bridge, iPad, Delta, chartwill Square.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Okay, I've been to any of those? Haven't you never
been to any of what? You hang on? Pantsman? You've
been to Hamilton Gardens? I haven't. No, Shall we take
on Hamilton Week or something.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
Yeah, I've only been to the House on Hood one
time only for Flitch more me bingo thing.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
I haven't done enough of Hamilton Street. It's a good time.
Birds like I say, Evlon drive haven't Morton. It's like
I say, Raymond, bird birds, Raymond, are you going to
drive down there? And yeah? Boats for sale? Been to Cambridge?
Is that count? You've been to Dinsdale the Reuben Fringe,
You've been to Norton? Nah? Okay, where's Franktincy? I think
(12:33):
I have been to play for the frankin Albions League team.
Don't get if someone go and shove a finger up,
asked you yep, completing a tackle? But that was more.
That was rapy. That was at school.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
What happened in Hamilton on Friday? How come the a
SC eleven lost? Look like you guys were gonna win?
Speaker 1 (12:50):
No, yeah, don't talk about that. We played okay, A
few things didn't go our way. Firstly the umpires.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
It was kJ from Seddon Park and the groundskeeper there,
he was one of the umps.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
And then there was a zb announcer. He was the
other umpire.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
My costco no, no, no at all no, but they
we batted and we opened up. This was our yearly
game against it's our acc eleven versus November eleven.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
Kind of that.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
It was a mixture of people from around Hamilton who
played for their team. We managed to recruit pretty well.
We had Riley McCallum, son of opened the batting for us.
He pumped about four six's in a row. Really set
the standard and we set I think we were one
hundred and sixty odd by the time we came off
(13:41):
the field on twenty overs. Yeah, we found it's not bad.
It was only eighteen overs.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
I was then.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
I was not out. I was twenty not out. And
they came in and said, this didn't seem like that
was twenty overs. It was eighteen and so they scoring.
So they score adjusted the umpires the score adjusted it
to one seventh. I was like, okay, we're in here,
and at halfway point they needed twelve and over off
the last ten with four wickets in hand we lost.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
How were you bowling any of those overs, listen, I
might have contributed.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
I thought I bowled quite a tight spell in my
last two deliveries. From my third over got pumped to
one of the two biggest sixers I've ever seen in
my life back over my head and then then I
tossed it to Manaiah and said finish them off. They
needed four to went off the last over. It only
required one board to finish. But Manyah was potentially someone
(14:40):
of the funniest fielding maneuver. He's not lightning in the field, Maniah,
and he was at mid wicket and someone clipped it
just about two meters to his left, and he wasn't
paying attention and he was very slow off. He was
very slow off the mark. I can see this and
he's slow off the mart and he's like, oh shit,
I bet to get this. And he went to take
off and he kind of lost his balance and the
(15:01):
forward momentum his head and his chest went forward and all.
The only way I can describe it was when Joan
Olomu when he scored that famous try by running over
Mike Cat. You know how he'd lost his balance a
little bit and he was very top heavy. The only
thing that righted him was bumping Mike Cat off and
he stood up again. Problem with Midnight didn't have Mike Cat.
(15:23):
He didn't have any ruggie players around him. He was
on his own and he was trying to get his
balance for about six meters and then face blunted running
down hell miles away from the ball. The game had
to stop for about ten minutes because everyone was laughing
so much, so we didn't cover ourselves in glory.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
We lost again. I didn't really want to bring it up,
to be honest. But it's our job though as the SEC,
is to go around and bring joy and lose. Yeah,
that's just what we do, be punching bags. Yeah, we
bring a lot of joy to people because we met
him feel better about their cricketing ability. I mean, as
you said in your pre match speech, yeah, you're here
to disgrace the jumper. Yeah, here to disgrace the shirt,
(16:01):
the jersey. Yeah, and it sounds like your team disgraced
the shirt, which is exactly what they need. Yeah, they do.
But part of me wanted to win. But I was
so sure.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Yeah, I was so sure when I saw one hundred
off the last ten of us they were going to win.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
And I just scrolled through the Instagram stories in No,
how was the catching, because that's the other great thing
is good pride? What Yeah, that's disappointing.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Other good I mean the help that a couple of
catches got hit to Riley mccallumy swallowed them up like easily.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
We dropped twelve last time.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
We only dropped one. This time too roundI dropped one two.
We dropped two catches, So that's better.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
No, that's disappointing. We meant to drop catches. Wasn't it
live in catches including two? The pens been dropped three.
I think it wasn't the three hands like feet. Someone
described your hands like feet. It's weird because normally they
describe them like buckets. You've got massive hands. There's no
excuse for your pens. Man, you're twenty five, how are
you twenty twenty four, twenty four, you're a young athlete,
(16:57):
your six foot bloody sex. There's no there's no reason
for you to drop a catch. Yeah, that's thrue, tip fans.
I had.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
I weirdly had a dream last night that I was
playing cricket and we're doing on and I took a screamer.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
That's that's a dream. Yeah, yeah, that's never gonna happen.
Although I think you're bowling pantsman, it's sex for sex.
The other day in the nets, pantsman was whipping it in.
He was creating some real heavy as he was sure
he bowls a nasty length.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Yeah, well he did that against the Jelux Trade's eleven.
He dug a couple in short. Remember they guys like well,
Jesus is a bit slippery. He's a bit slippery. He
doesn't give you anything in your helf.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
Nothing.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Yes, So I've got another game coming up, playing for
against todd Estell and a better man eleven down in
Hagley over wonder Lights. Got Joe Wheeler and our team,
so hopefully we can bring it.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
He can dig it in. Yeah. Time, You're getting to
an interesting point in your creakling career now because you
know it's a it's a you've had your victories in
the past, and you know you've I mean, I wouldn't
say that you in your creaming crew, you've covered yourself
in glory, but you've performed ably at times. You know
at times at times, and at some point you're going
(18:08):
to have to hang up your boats because it's gonna
you're gonna every performance that you now do it just
takes away a little bit from things that you've done
well in the past. Yeah, and soon you're going to
be in the negative. So you do need to consider
this maybe just going into a coaching role, or maybe
an umpiring role, maybe scoring, or just some kind of
(18:29):
administrative position.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Edmond's not a strength though, So I don't know if
I I don't know.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
If I can look, I'll see how I go down
in Hagley. My twenty not out.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
I was quite happy with twenty nine hour. I carried
my bet. I didn't carry my bet was my bet
at five? But yeah, ok, yeah that's something. Yeah, I
think I middled one. Very hard to get your timing,
isn't it. It's like the catching, just timing is shocking.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
You play on grass when you yeah, yeah, definitely hard
to get the time out of grass. Yeah. A couple
popped off a so, yeah, we didn't cover ourselves in glory.
It sounds like you did exactly what you should have done.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
Okay, lost, Yeah we did so thanks for bringing that Pensman. Yeah.
I thing as I had to drive home that night,
and I had Joe Jury and Menia Stewart in the
car with me.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
I was driving, and they.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Did work absolutely crushing cans of expert culture all the
way home. Every minute was like all the way up
over the bomb, I had to do about three toilet stops, Bombay,
get out.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Wheeze should have taken masses drink bottle with you, Yeah,
that's true.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
Actually, yeah, and then you had to run them home
drop them off. He took a couple of roadies with them.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Yeah. Every time I take to a jury home off
for a day of work, you'll take a couple of
cans to work. He's drinking a couple of cans on
the way.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
Yeah, all right, I mean it was probably the good
best as we could do, really the circumstances.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
All right, okay, are right right there, right then, Thank you.
