Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Hodache Breakfast, Load up on Landscaping with Bunning's Trade.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
You listening to the Hodacre breakfastone on Island, Ben Hurley
filling in cheers to Bunning's trade, Load up on landscaping
with Bunning's trade.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
And speaking of loads, Ben.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Well, I'm on a email list, and I'm not sure
how I'm on this email list, but you know, we
all we're all on email list and we're not sure
how we got there, right, But it's for the Tatanaki
Health Foundation, which I believe is the entity that raises
money for Tadanaki based hospital in your Plymouth. And they're
doing a fundraiser and it's come through. And the fundraiser
(00:37):
is called Run for ED four hundred kilometers and forty
eight hours. It's a big old charity fun run and
it's for ED. Yes, Now, ED is an acronym for
what's for, Ben Well, it's for a problem that can
affect some men, a dysfunction. Dysfunction. Yes, I don't think
(00:59):
that is what they want to raise the money for.
It does have another.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
Definition emergency department.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
Emergency department.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Yeah, you're thinking it's for a rectile dysfunction. Yeah, And
you're thinking there's some ambiguity there.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
There is. I mean, when I see ED, I think
of one thing. I'm sorry, I.
Speaker 4 (01:20):
Really thought it was when you because you send this
through to the chat yesterday, and I really thought it
was an erect ol dysfunction run.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
It took me about ten minutes to realize why you
could have possibly sent it through, because I mean, I'm
not a maniac constantly thinking about a rectile dysfunction.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Like you Rudis.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
So I was like, well, why would this look like
a lovely story of people running four hundred k and
forty eight hours to raise money for the emergency department?
But you actually consider this could be for men who
are unable to perform in the bedroom.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Yeah, basically, yeah, I mean, you know it's a medical
issue and there are medicines that help you.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Do you think they're doing an event such as a
forty eight hour, four hundred K something that involves incredible
amount of stamina might be rubbing it in the face
of those who do.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
So, rubbing it whether that can help too the face? Look,
I just don't think that they I just never heard
the Immergency Department referred to as the ED before there
was a very popular TV show all through the nineteen
nineties and the two thousands called ER. It wasn't called ED,
(02:25):
I mean possibly for that reason.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Yeah, I'm going to have to I hear where you're
coming from, But I mean the ED is that's common parlance,
A and E.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
You don't go, oh, we've got to go to the ED.
You go, we going to go to A and E
because I've chopped my finger off.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
I hear. I'm right there with you.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
I'm trying not to, you know, yuck, you'r youm here, ben,
But a lot of people do refer to it as
the ED.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Are you sure this never heard it referred to as
the Eden? How old are you again?
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Forty five?
Speaker 2 (02:54):
So you don't think there might be another reason that
when you hear ED, you automatically think of the other one.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Well, I don't know why I'm being specifically targeted here
as a Tartanaki man myself.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
You're really honing it on.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Really you read it Tatanaky Health Foundation run for d
It's like they're reading my texts.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
So I feel like I've been thrown under the bus
because yes, I'm disgusting and I have a filthy mind.
And immediately I saw a run for ED four hundred
kilometers and forty eight hours, and I thought he But
there is actually on the cut and paste that I've
got here says please help ed a big problem for
Taranaki men, and that is why I went down that
road Tony instead of emergency department. So I don't think
(03:34):
this is my fault.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
I mean, I think I wrote that.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
That's that's not in the same that's in Times New Roman.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
That's if you can highlight that, you can delete that, mate,
that's that's written.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
I think I wrote that because I thought that helped
the joke when I was explaining it to you guys.
But yes, look, I don't think anyone sees ED and
thinks emergency department. No normal person. I think they've made
a mistake here, and that's why we're nitpecking it on
the radio right now.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
I'm also looking at the picture of the three people
that are doing the run. Apparently those are the three
people that are doing it, and two of them, I
reckon could well suffer from that problem.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
We've got to text s them through as another Tartanaki
Howard a man even more specifically me, I'm with ben
er or A and e. Jack.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Yeah, well maybe, I mean Taranaki, might you might need
have a chat with your own health department here because
there seems to be some wires crossed. I just can't
get on board. I think the ED is well, it's
the emergency department.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Everyone knows that is okay, hospital worker here, absolutely, everyone
refers to it as the ED. It's on all the signs.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
I'm with this person. ED is the first thing.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Maybe within the industry, but regular people.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
If you polled one hundred people and said when you
were in healthcare, what does ED stand for?
Speaker 1 (04:49):
They would say rectildus function. Not one would maybe ninety
nine point five of.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
The forty five percent year old men who suffer with
a rectial dysfunction would say he would say, agree with you.
But everyone else's their moodency department.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Anyone who's been into the spam folder on their on
their emails has seen ED for that, because you get
spam emails every day about it.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Yeah, there are a lot of pearls out there. And
can I just say that injection I took off the
homeless man in Vegas.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
That certainly helped.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Took a day and a half to wear up.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
Jerry and Mini the hold Ikey breakfast.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
The history of Yesterday Today, Tomorrow Mule.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Thanks to Bunning's trade. Light up on lengths scaping with
Bunning's trade. On this day in nineteen sixty two, the
Cuban missile crisis begins and US President John F. Kennedy
has shown photos confirming the presence of Soviet missiles in
Cuba from a U two spy plane. Who was driving
that bono.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
And they were on the edge of war?
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Oh, very good, Tony. The image is sode Soviet Soviet
Soviet medium range ballistic missiles being installed, capable of carrying
nuclear warheads that could reach most of the US within minutes.
The discovery triggered thirteen days of intense tension between the
United States and the Soviet Union. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
John F.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Kennedy handled that well, And I think everything went pretty
well for HME after that.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
Nineteen sixty two, nine and sixty years that checks out.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Yeah, same year, same year he lost his life. I believe.
Nineteen sixty four China conducts its first nuclear tests. We
were very nuclear focused today, red. Yeah, I thought that
becoming the fifth nuclear power happened at three pm local time. Oh,
I love an afternoon game.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
Yeah, it wasn't under lights.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Yeah, get the kids, they can get get a hot dog, Yeah,
a very hot dog.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
It was roughly as powerful as the bomb dropped in Nagasaki.
Boy the US, it was bob dropped by a Chinese
H six bomber and detonated successfully in the air.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
Wow, that's cool, man, it's great to have more of
those going off.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
In nineteen eighty seven, eighteen month old Jessica McClure is
rescued after fifty eight hours in a well, a twenty
two foot or six point seven meters well shaft in Midland, Texas,
and was the inspiration for this Simpsons episode This's all
(07:20):
in my heart as Jeep as the well for that
poor little boy who's stuck halfway to hell.
Speaker 7 (07:26):
Oh we can't get him out withsay.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Go on TV and sing seeing see we're seeing the
damn well. Wow.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Yeah, I think this fact in here is the maybe
maybe the most interesting. That it was only twenty centimeters wide,
crazy and six Yeah, like I said, six point seven
meters d it's so long and thin to be have
a tiny eighty month old down there.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Far less funny than the Simpsons version.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Yes, Well, in the Simpsons version. It was a crusted
the clown radio what do you call it? Walkie talkie
that Bart had put down there, so he wasn't even
down there, but then he goes down to get it
out and he falls down himself, of course.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Spoiler alert.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Born on this day. Tim Robbins, American director, Armed for
Surehat Redemption and Mystic River. He's fifty seven today and
two great flicks there also today, dirty old John Mayer
tune you must have what's the lyricer here?
Speaker 7 (08:43):
That?
Speaker 1 (08:43):
When I used to work on a sort of soft
middle of the road radio station in the early ten thousands,
I used to turn it down because I was like,
now women are going to like that too much? Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Well, the good thing about John Mayer is, due to
his scoundrel behaviour, certainly promised some great songs and Taylors
with so thanks about John.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Oh, dear you a groove into this roll.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
I'll never let your head hit the pillow without my
hand behind it.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
Is that something like that?
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Yeah? Born today. Michael Balzari playing this particular baseline here,
that is flee the basis for the redult Chili Pepers
also an occasional actor he's in The Big Lebowski for example. Yes, yes,
and it's just a legend. Who doesn't love flee you
(09:33):
love them?
Speaker 2 (09:34):
On court side of the Lakers and full kit with
Cheetah died here at sixty three years of age.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
He looked his head and face look like a scroton,
but that kind of adds to his coolness. Somewhere's sixty
three today.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Great autobiography, by the way, if you're into that sort
of thing.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
I accid for the children.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Yeah, it's really good.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
Yeah, I've got that on my shelf. Haven't read it.
The History of Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow Timadoo, but the sixteenth
of October twenty twenty five Jerry and.
Speaker 8 (10:04):
Mini the hold I Keep Breakfast now A Questions passed
were giving the ass that want to crouch.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
And being early.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
The question of etiquette today when you're at a bar,
you're waiting in line, it might be heaving.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
The people live right in the center and it is
one of those a classic bar. It's long.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
You sort of make your way when you're to the front.
When you can get there, there's no queue to stand in.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
And yeah, it's never a linear line. No, you you
know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (10:32):
And you're vaguely aware of the people around you. You
kind of know where you sit in the grand scheme
of things. It's the guy slides till I left. He
was actually here before me. But every now again, the
person in front of you will leave, so you'll pop
to the front of the bar. My question of etiquette
for today is when the bartender comes over and asks
who is next? Do you gesture to the person besides you,
(10:53):
who you know has been there for longer than you,
might be further behind the bar than you, or.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Do you say yeah and just get in there with
your with your order.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
That's a whole material. Now, you definitely let someone else
go first. I think if we don't do that, society
breaks down.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
There in a society, Jerry.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Yeah, you know, we've got chaos, We're got anarchy.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
I couldn't agree more.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Even if the person beside me, if I'm pretty sure
that I was there first, I will still.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Be like I think, were you here, Oh, definitely do
a chicken.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
I'll get you the chicken.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
You a welfare check in these situations and say how
do you because they might go, you go, and then
you then you're allowed to go if they give you
the you go back.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
If you're receiving, you go back.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
You can go. It's dangerous though, isn't that because that
person could go, oh too, you know espresso martiniz which
take like forty eight minutes to make, and there's only
one bartender on and you're just getting a beer and
you're like, ah, I've really mucked up here.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
There should be some sort of get out of that
instance code word where if that person knows they've got
to order a punish it. If they're doing around, they're getting,
you know too cranbry Vog has eight Export Ultra and
a glass of milk, then they should go you're just
getting it. You go first, because the milk and the.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Supermarket right, yes, lane, If somebody's you know, just got
a few items and you've got a massive trolley, you
let them go in in front.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
I mean, this is a whole you've blown this wide open, Ben, Really,
this is an incredible sense. There should be an express lane,
and there should be. This is revolutionary.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
Cocktail lane and everything else lane.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
It's like a singles only line at a theme park.
When you're single riders only, you're just there by yourself.
If you're just wanting one beer, maybe two beers or
two whites, and.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
That should be it comes from a bottle or a tap.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Yeah, something they can just hand to you very easily.
And one or two minimum, because then you know you're
getting one for a friend. Anything beyond that, if you're
getting three or more or any mixed drink.
Speaker 4 (12:54):
The problem is, and I've seen this at the supermarket
check it as well. What happens to the person that
then gets in then and he's like, I'm in the
line for one or two beers and he goes, oh, one,
I have one export ultra can I also grab two
bottles of wine? And then just starts doing that? Do
you shame them and kick them out? Because they don't
do that at the supermarket.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
That's the bartender's job.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
The bartender is say, hey, I appreciate you spend money here,
but you're going to want to take your ass to
the back of the big queue.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
I like it.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
This here is the this is the express queue.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Yeah. I Also if you get to the front of
that line and you look like you're going to order
a beer or two and then you get two bottles
of wine. There are other problems that play here. Yeah,
you get you know, you're going to end up in
the A and X.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
Just get really caught up in the export ulture mansion.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
You also might suffer from ed.
Speaker 8 (13:45):
Jury and midnight the hold Ikey Breakfast, Jurry and midnight
the hold Ikey Breakfast.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
I feel like we've got this platform being we've kind
of got to use it. Yes to our advantage pectually, Yes,
and personal grievances.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
Oh is this you rubbish chair?
Speaker 3 (14:00):
This is my rubbish.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Chat, Tody's rubbish chat.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
I have realized it. Every time I have to make
up a sting on the spot, it starts.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
With yeah, I've never heard that as part of a
sting me neither.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Are just trying to do, you know, cool radio noises.
I received the letter in the mail, and essentially the
guts of this letter was that the rubbish which is
normally taken once a week, and i'd imagine that's fairly
uniform around the place, they're going to do a trial
in my suburb and some other suburbs around this area,
and they're only going to take it every two weeks.
(14:35):
Now they're saying why we're proposing this, And in this
they say that there's basically a lot of rubbish, enough
to fill Eden Park every week over the whole of
the city. So this is an effort to reduce rubbish,
that's what they're saying, and so they're only going to
take it every two weeks.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
But on this I call bes.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
I say, this isn't about saving rubbish. I say, this
is about saving money by not seeing the rubbish trucks
out every single a week. And now I've got to
have a bin full of literal human excrement due to
the fact that I have an infant child on my
property somewhere for a fortnight over summer, going absolutely rancid.
And now they're saying this is to save rubbish. I
(15:15):
still make the same amount of rubbish in two weeks.
Just because it's not getting picked up every week doesn't
mean I make less rubbish.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Mate, you've not even finished your opening rant to this,
and we have a text in saying the good people
of Tiata two need to make a fuss about this
so that they don't roll it out to the rest
of the city. You have a responsibility as a ratepayer
within the Auckland Supercity to make sure because this could
spread throughout the city and even New Zealand.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
Well, it could spread, and that's what I worry about,
is that it will spreading because this person has banged
on that's the sun that I live in Tiata two,
and I know that that doesn't apply to everyone who's
listening right now. Some of you will be in other
cities thinking, oh, this is just you complaining about you
up your little bubble up in Auckland, and no it isn't.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
This could affect everyone.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
It'll catch on like the bubonic plague and before you
know it, you're gonna have rubbish shitting in your driveway
for two weeks and the council will be saying, no,
this is to save the environment, when really they're just
saving themselves a buck or two.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
So I live in the western Bay of Plenty and
we have a weekly rubbish collection still because you know,
we're not animals like you are in but we have
a we have a fortnightly recycling collection. What are you
running in Tata.
Speaker 3 (16:27):
Two fortnightly as well?
Speaker 2 (16:29):
And okay, Brendan Dick has just text through on three
four eight three and seid it's every two weeks in
christ Church. Brendan, I ask you, is that you're rubbish?
Your regular rubbish. So you only get the rubbish collected
two weeks at night in christ Church because that seems
too long. And I mean, this is good to know
because if you can do it in christ which we
can do it anywhere. But I just think the thing
(16:49):
that annoys me the most, and I really think it's
that when they explain it by saying they're trying to
make it as good for I just say we're trying
to save rates. Just say we're trying to save money.
I'm fine that if that's the idea behind it. But
they're trying to make me feel like a bad guy. Yeah,
for one of my rubbish picked up. And I can't
triss this enough.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
You can't tell your infant child to pools.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
I tell him every day. He's I even said infant.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
I thought you did.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
He's ad.
Speaker 4 (17:18):
Also, Tony, you said Auckland, sin's around one point five
million tons of rubbish to landfill every year, enough to
fill Eden Park. Got a tix through On three four
eight three someone said the Blues were filling up Eden
Park was rubbish every week the Super Rugby season.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Yeah take that. The Blues Highlanders for life. Yeah, it
does seem like christis.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Might be every two weeks and Taranaki, well, boy, oh boy,
am I feeling like a big city complainer right about now?
Speaker 1 (17:43):
Maybe it was maybe two weeks in Hamilton, alternating rubbish
and recycling each week. Okay, it's already, it's already here, Tony.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Yeah, Well maybe we're the last to know. And now
we're being the we're the batman here. We're trying to
revolutionize the rest of his yelds rubbish collection to make
it to one week everywhere.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Goodness me, when's it going to hit the Western Bay
of Plenty? I hope not too soon?
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Also every two weeks, and we really we're getting told
here and I do like it.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
We're learning. I'm open to new things, so maybe maybe
I can be flexible here. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (18:15):
Jerry and Midnight the Htarchy Breakfast.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Geez, you've got some rubbish chat, I really do.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
It's trash, it's garbage.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
The Area eleven is proposing changing rubbish collection to two
weeks from one week, and it does seem like the
texts coming through on three four eight three, A lot
of the country already has this two week collection.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
Yes, that's right. It looks like a new Plymouth, a
toadunger Dunedin and gray Mouth.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
There's also a text and I think this is a
very astute observation. They're saying that it's a lot colder
in these other areas, so you rubbish doesn't go off
as quickly, because that's what happens in ours. The only
spot where you can really put the bin dust get
a lot of afternoon sun, so it really does warm
that bin up into a nice slurry. And I can
only imagine what that is going to smell like after
(19:03):
two weeks of sitting in the sun.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Yeah, maybe it is a seasonal thing. Maybe they should,
you know, maybe two weeks during winter and then in
the summer months definitely weekly.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
It's going to be hot and heavy. Someone asking will
you get bigger bins? Which that is an option. It
does say you can apply for a bigger bin. You
can also apply for a secondary bin.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
Hang on what I thought this was all to reduce
the amount of rubbish. Yeah, but you can apply for
a bigger or a second bin.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Yees, So the same amount of rubbish gets collected every
two weeks. And I will say this, they are offering
a small rates rebate depending on what bin you are
getting collected, so I think it's something like twenty six dollars.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
Don't quote me on that.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Yeah, there's a motivating factor. Now, how full is your
regular bin every week generally? Is it full to the brim?
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Pretty full?
Speaker 1 (19:52):
Yeah? I mean you do a lot of kids.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I do have three whipper snappers, and yeah, it's the
nappies that get me, you know, when it's they start
to hum.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
I mean, I don't want to anyone's breakfast time. No, no,
not mine. No, I just go straight in the bin.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
But you've really motivated the two textas that you guys
have just lost your supermarket. I used to live in
Tiato two Peninsula before we move down to the to
the Bay. But that supermarket was was very handy. God
knows where you go now.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
Yeah, while you just go to the local fruit store,
shout out greens.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Yep, it'll come back. It's getting rejuvenized. So I can't
complain about the I don't want to mix the streams here.
I don't want to get lost and chat someone saying
by a bin liner it's if that's I don't.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
Think that's the issue here.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
That's that's not a solution.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Yeah, no, You can't just put your dirty filth in
a bag and have it sort itself out.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Do you know what? I envisited your world where the
rubbish men and women out there on the streets sort of,
you know, doing a wonderful service and kind of singing
as they do it. Rhoda, who can take your treasure?
Speaker 5 (21:09):
Stop it down for you, shake the plastic bag and
do the twisty thing you do.
Speaker 9 (21:16):
The garbage man.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
The garbage man, he does.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
Sequent the smile and ever judges you take this diaper.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
We're still going.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
That's two Simpson songs in one breakfast show. I mean,
that is beautiful stuff. And I think this text on
three for three really sums it up where he says
my local playground rubbish bin never refuses rubbish take.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Yeah, that's a very good point.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
And that's what it will.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
That's what it's going to come to. I think the
little local park at the end of my street is
going to get hooked up.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Not by me. I would never do such a thing.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
But there's already some habitual fly tippers. But I do
worry that the fly tipping, if you didn't, is going
to catch on? Is it?
Speaker 1 (22:03):
What fly tipping is?
Speaker 2 (22:04):
Yeah, flight tipping when you just go to a sub
a random end of a culder sack, open your boot
and just have at.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
It when you you know, you hear a thing and
you didn't know what it was, and then that makes
perfect sense, okay.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
And a tip for young players if you are got
a fly tip, which of course would never encourage at all,
but always just make sure you don't have any sort
of old bills or you know, the delivery address of
your groceries on a brown paper bab because that will
come back to bite.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
You with that.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
One time and we got to scap, we did a
big clean out, and we got to scap outside the house,
and of course some people dump their rubbish and I
lost my mind and I went through the rubbish trying
to find like trying to find an envelope or or
something and find out how it was. And they were
smart enough not to have put any of that in there.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
I'm sure they did leave a lot of DNA for
you to scram through, but.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
I did definitely have somebody's rubbish all over my body.
Speaker 5 (22:56):
Jerry and Mini the hod Ikey Breakfast.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Local body leaksans were held all over the country over
the weekend, and it's nice to break over the colls.
You know, Ben, we're a political show very much, so
we like to have our ends plugged into the sockets
of politics, if.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
That is indeed a saying.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
And with that in mind, we have on the show
joining us the newly elected well really really Mayor of Gore,
Ben Bow.
Speaker 10 (23:22):
Good morning, Ben, Oh, good morning Jent Sally.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
We're very well think you now.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
You sort of rose to fame as a twenty three
year old last election cycle, grabbing the meural chains of
Gore as the youngest ever elected official in New Zealand
in the Meordy seat at least. Do you feel that
now you're twenty six, you're much older and wiser now
you've been reelected.
Speaker 9 (23:47):
Yeah, I think in local government you age and dog
is so while I may have only aged three years,
in the real world, I feel like I've aged like
ten to twenty three years. I'm in my sixties now.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Really well, I can see why it was a slightly
tumultuous term. There was some you know, calls of vote
of no confidence. But the first time you won the
seat was by eight votes. This time was by like
two thousand, right, So you're doing something right.
Speaker 9 (24:16):
Ben, Yeah, yeah, it's a weird feeling this time time
three years ago. I was very nervous today because we
get the final results today, whereas it's pretty crazy this
time around. So yeah, something must have gone right, I'm
guessing now.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
I know that's pretty happy.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
I know it was tight last time being in this time,
like you said, it went well for you, and we
sort of put some thought into what you could use
next time as well, and we made up at a
little bit of a slow get a little musical backing
that you could use as part of your campaign.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
It goes like this, Goya elected again.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
Do you think that that might be something you incorporated
into your official campaign? This Maror of Gore song?
Speaker 10 (25:00):
Absolutely?
Speaker 3 (25:01):
Oh that's brilliant.
Speaker 7 (25:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (25:04):
Is it going to cost me anything or well?
Speaker 1 (25:06):
I don't know there potentially, Yeah, are we right there?
Speaker 3 (25:10):
Didn't we?
Speaker 9 (25:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (25:11):
No?
Speaker 1 (25:12):
I mean National you know went with the eminem song
for a while and they didn't land them in any
hot water, did it?
Speaker 5 (25:18):
No?
Speaker 9 (25:18):
No, that wasn't headlines at all, was it?
Speaker 1 (25:21):
I think it was. It was good.
Speaker 9 (25:22):
I mean any media is good good media, right, So
come a bit of copy right now?
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Now, Ben, what's the rubbish situation in Gore, question about
my local councilor's proposing a change from weekly rubbish collection
to fortnitely and you know, it sort of racks me
up a little bit. And it does seem that a
lot of the country already has fortnite a collection. What
are you dealing with and what would you like to see?
Speaker 9 (25:46):
Wow, your your fingers really on the pulse of your
politics to your boys. So and Gore, we're actually turning
on recycling again. It was something I campaigned on last
time around. From November third we will be recycling. So
going back to a red burn week and then recycling
the other week then.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
So I don't want to hold your feet to the
fly here. Maybe you're telling me no recycling And Gore, No,
we we.
Speaker 9 (26:11):
Had we had no recyct well we had glass, but
it just kind of went to the top.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Not that anybody knows that.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
Busted this wide open.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Yes, this is John Campbell Investigates.
Speaker 9 (26:22):
Yeah, yeah, no, So we're turning it back on. My
predecessor turned it off because there was some contract issues.
But yeah, we're back into it now. We actually had
the Local Lines group. They do a fantastic recycling servers
for us, a bunch of other retired guys and the
nineties who do there was most of the businesses in town,
so they do an awesome job. But we're turning on
(26:44):
the curb side stuff again, which were pretty stoked about.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
I mean that really does sound like we're starting at
the bottom, but still and just to get there clarified. So,
how how often is the rubbish pickup? We don't, I
don't want to dodge any questions.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
No, no, it's all good.
Speaker 9 (26:57):
So fortnightly now, so it's been as fortnightly and then
your yellow bin which is recycling as fortnightly as so
it's an ulternate's week tonate.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Ye, it seems to be quite a common one around
the around the motu. Now, Ben, what other promises did
you campaign on this time?
Speaker 9 (27:15):
This time round? I campaigned on economic development, So Gore
is right for an economic boom. We've got a lot
of Aucklanders looking to move down our way. Yes, big
business here. We've got a fantastic library, pool, ice, skating rank,
you name it. It's an awesome place to be. So
really trying to drive big industry.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
And Gore, yeah you had me at we do recycling
now now I know we're filling in for Jerry m
and I here on the Honaki Breakfast.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
Ben, you are the mayor of Gore.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Do you think that there is any lingering resentment towards
our own Jeremy Wells.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
In the area.
Speaker 9 (27:52):
I'd be naive to say not.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
I mean, is it something you should double down on? Ben?
You know, and he chase that pink dollar and be
gay old Gore.
Speaker 10 (28:03):
Just just go with its.
Speaker 9 (28:06):
That's a curse with it in my neck of the woods.
I don't know how we'll go down with my considerate
but hey, when when Guy Williamson town doing an interview,
we invited Jeremy down to squash the beef. We'd love
to bring him down to you know, put it in
the past, but yet to get a text from him.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
So, yeah, is that why you're doing this interview with
us today?
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Normally, with Jerrem and I you wouldn't be able to
appear due to the potential hitting the polls. But with
Ben Hurley and Tony Le you're free to appear.
Speaker 9 (28:33):
Yeah, exactly. I'm guessing that's why I've never come on
the shows, because I'm guessing Jeremy probably I think that
he's maybe a bit scared of me. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Oh, I meet us up a resolution of some sorts. Well,
thank you very much for joining us being. We appreciate it,
and best of luck with this current turn.
Speaker 8 (28:51):
Jerry and Mini, the Hodarchy Breakfastdarchey.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
Breakfast Master Mine and yesterday had a little look at
Wales and of the project manager from Topaul took away
two hundred big ones.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
I mean it was my fault, it was your fault.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
You humulated yourself and he won on a captain's challenge,
which means that today it resets to fifty dollars and
if it doesn't go today, one hundred dollars on the
line tomorrow and Jim Bowl Jef for a prime minister
very sadly passing away today at the age of ninety,
so to honor him. Today's Mastermind topic is famous gyms, and.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
On the line we have we have a gym. We've
got James who's a professor at Messy fan Purur. Is
that correct?
Speaker 6 (29:35):
That is correct?
Speaker 4 (29:36):
Good morning, guys?
Speaker 1 (29:37):
How are you? How are you? Do you go by
Jim at all?
Speaker 10 (29:40):
I do go by Jim? Actually, so yeah, this.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Is this show is just falling into place. It really
isn't it really is? And how often do you put
your bit out?
Speaker 3 (29:49):
Jim?
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Once a week? Once a week?
Speaker 3 (29:55):
And God intended?
Speaker 1 (29:57):
So you you live in Fanngapurur, but you work at
Massy Albany. Would that be right? That's correct.
Speaker 10 (30:03):
I'm at the Albany campus.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
Yeah, okay, what's your subject there, Jim?
Speaker 6 (30:07):
I'm a zoologist ecologist?
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Okay, you would have been good with Wales yesterday.
Speaker 6 (30:14):
I would have been and yeah, but here we are
with Jim.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
They should be good with Jim's as well, so he
is hoping this is fantastic news. All right, Jim, you've
got forty five seconds. We'll ask you five questions and
you've got to get three correct to win the fifty
bucks if you're going to pass past quickly and we'll
come back to it. There is, of course the justice
for Tony Klaus. If we stuff it up, you win,
which is what happened yesterday because I stuffed it up.
And you can call for a captain's challenge if you
(30:39):
think we've made a mistake at the end. Just called
captain's challenge. And do you understand I understand let's go
based on yesterday.
Speaker 3 (30:48):
I think have that captain's challenge called pretty.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Close, pretty close to you? Your time starts now. Which
professional wrestler won the first ever Royal Rumble in nineteen
eighty eight. Who was the creator of the Garfield comic
strips correct? Which who famously used the term Cumburgers on
a TV one We're the forecast? Australian businessman Jim Penman
(31:15):
founded which lawn care company in nineteen eighty nine. Who
is the guitarist for led Zeppelin Jimmy Page Correct? Which
professional wrestler won the first ever Royal Rumble in nineteen
eighty eight.
Speaker 6 (31:30):
I got nothing for that.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
Who famously used the term Comburger's on a TV one
We're the Forecast.
Speaker 4 (31:40):
Tough.
Speaker 7 (31:41):
It was tough Burgers and a bit of frost, while
they're sort of comburgers, you.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
Know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
I know we played that Jim Hackey clip there, but
I do believe underneath that great Comburger's clip, I heard
Jim calling a captain's shilling.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
Oh really, I was just joking. Those questions were hired.
They were, and we detect an accent there a North
American accent. Jim, where are you from? Originally from Montreal, Canada.
Yeah I did. I thought it was a bit of
Canadian in there. Yeah, so you probably missed the great
Jim Hicky saying that the term comburgers on TV just
(32:18):
a great piece of New Zealand television.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
There.
Speaker 3 (32:21):
Can we have that again? Please?
Speaker 7 (32:22):
Ruder Rader's a gone burger. But the showers and and
a bit of frost, well they're sort of comburgers.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
You know what I mean. We didn't know what he meant.
Speaker 4 (32:32):
I know what he meant, man, I mean the showers
are gone and there's the rainers coming.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Okay, did you get Jim's mowing?
Speaker 5 (32:41):
No.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
Australian businessman Jim Penman founded Which Lawn Jim, Yeah, that
would that would have got.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
You there, especially when I was a Which Lawn care company.
And yeah, gyms, it's almost right now.
Speaker 4 (32:52):
We're about a number one though, Ben number one.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
Yeah. A professional wrestler won the first ever Royal Rumber
in nineteen eighty eight. Hacks Or Jim duggan O. Yeah,
not a wrestling fan. Oh there, Jim, No, I am,
I'm not. Really doesn't really go with your professorial sort
of character, does it. You prefer things that are real. Yeah,
(33:19):
that's right.
Speaker 3 (33:20):
Well, as they say in academia, jim Unluggy Yours.
Speaker 8 (33:25):
Jurry and Midnight, The hold Ikey Breakfast, Jerry and Midnight,
The hold Ikey Breakfast.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
The clash going down on Sunday, Ben Hurly, the Kiwi's
taking on Tors some more in the first game of
the twenty twenty five Pacific Championships six pm.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
So a nice evening game.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
Evening calling get an afternoon game, but it is daylight saving,
so it will be daylight.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
It will be nice and nice lights at hopefully at
full stadium. And to talk us through what to expect,
we have former Shark rooster and Kiwi's captain Ritchie.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
Ritchie, What's going on? What's going to happen on Sunday?
Speaker 7 (34:04):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (34:05):
My goodness, isn't it great? I Mean, this is what
I love about the Pacific Championships, with the unpredictability, with
the players now priedging the allegiance to their to the
nations and bolstering their side. You know, I think this
probably the slowest, you know, Salmon has been probably the
slowest out of all to really gain some momentum in
terms of players coming into the poor and you know,
(34:26):
kind of been leading that for some time, but prediction
for me and if I take the emotional thing out,
I think I think the Kiwis should witness one. But
with the unpredictability when you've got paper in paying hears
back into the fray Terrell May and the side. I mean,
that's the unpredictability. Predictability about the Championship Ya Tour.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
Samoa is absolutely stacked. As you say, that front row
is ridiculous and you know, look we've got a legend
in the halves uh with Kieren Foran, but he is
I think in his late fifties, isn't.
Speaker 6 (34:59):
He actually actually it's incredible in it. He's so right
Karen Fauran, isn't it The curtain comes down again and
again and again. But this is just a beautiful way
for Karen to close the door and is an incredible
resilient career to be able to do, just to have
(35:19):
that one more shot in the Kiwi jersey and hopefully
it'll be a good one at that his combination with
Dylan Brown is going to be incredible. Hughes is not
amongst that because of his injury, but what a combination
we've got there on the other side too. Blaze Telungey
and Jerome Blue White. That is just a matchup. Actually,
every position that you've got now is mouth watering, you know.
(35:41):
Great to see Roger back at full back for some
more against Chance Nicole Coott's dad, which there's been debate
about whether Roger should be at fullback in the Warriors.
Now there's a chance. Actually the showcase is it? Really
this is going to be incredible to show that. I
love the fact that you're looking at two thirteen's at
the back too, Junior Paula against Joseph Tarpan who's been
(36:01):
in such unbelievable form, and there is a.
Speaker 3 (36:04):
Lot of talent running around out there.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
And I mean you talk about Roger Turbarsischik, he's changed
codes before an All Black of course, and speaking of
changing codes, the big story when it comes to the
NRL at the moment is this ten year band proposed
by Peter Landers for agents and players who negotiate with
R three sexty.
Speaker 3 (36:22):
What's your take on that one? Do you think that's
a fair shot?
Speaker 10 (36:25):
Actually, if I put three million in front of me,
just as from a place to spect them from a
I think from a sporting perspective, and keeping the integrative
our whole game together.
Speaker 6 (36:42):
And what we've seen with NRL now it's growing substantially,
it's really in good shape. I think it's probably the
right move to keep everything then paid more than ever two.
To be fair, the NRL players now are played extremely well.
Here's always going to be more in front of you
over the period of time. But I think it's like
the Super League r L battle back in the day
and the toll that the sport apart, and I think
(37:04):
they must have learned from the past and this is
probably just an act of solid area to keep it
in place. And it's rightly so because you've got rugby
as well. You've got so many sports trying to draw
in around. In fact, we do a good job at
pulling their rugby.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
Hey, would you and if your phone rang Richie, would
you answer the call of artistics?
Speaker 1 (37:24):
Else?
Speaker 6 (37:24):
Absolutely yes, I'll keep that secret just between us.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
Is that the reality of it, Richie, is that you
know you'll play maybe not you specifically, but players will
play sort of the first ten years of their of
their careers in the NRL and then go oh, well
it's only a ten year band and then jump ship
in over thirties league.
Speaker 6 (37:50):
Yeah, I know, it's an interesting of the lifespan of
a player and what next, you know, players can you know?
Ten years is great in the game. It's it's very
rare that you're able to play ten years in a
sport like the NRL. But i' to be able to
have that option to go somewhere or else and finish
(38:10):
your career off on a high and reward yourself with
more money.
Speaker 1 (38:14):
Yeah, And I reckon, Karen Fan could go and do
another ten years, isn't it right?
Speaker 9 (38:18):
Could he could?
Speaker 6 (38:20):
He could? Actually could?
Speaker 2 (38:21):
And while we've got you on the hot button issues there, Richie,
we've been talking Ben and I all week basically about
the Origin issue when it comes to Kiwi players. Of course,
Tasa my players are able to play Origin. Do you
think that the door should be open for Kiwi's players
to be able to represent.
Speaker 3 (38:36):
One of the states.
Speaker 6 (38:37):
Of course I think it should be. Definitely, I think
they should be. And because the Aussies will always have
and they always have pouched players over the years. They
always have. They dangled the Karen in front of many
Kiwi players and so rightly so we should be a
part of it. But I honestly think that it really
(38:58):
should be for for all these and I think what
we should have is a window where the Pacific Championship
should be in alignment with the Origin series, so we
play it in fairness that players are able to have
a genuine pathway internationally for our game. That's why this
championship is so important. But yet what comes in front
(39:18):
of us is the Origin and the NRL season. It's
just too compelling on the body for most of the players,
and they're just not willing to open that door for
players to play through that as well, because it's a
lot of play during the year when you offer another
tournament apart from the Origin and there it's just a
massive burden on all the players. But we've got to
(39:40):
get some money, can we. International windows are very small
and they don't have much, So how were supposed to
be successful in this game? And we're the one that's
hurt the most from all the players moving ship, We're
the one stuck in the middle where we've just been
pulled apart. You know, the Origin players now the island
nations are now moving rightly so to their their favored nation,
(40:03):
but we're stuck in the middle for the Kiwis and
we haven't really said much about it, but we're the
ones that are probably hurt the most.
Speaker 2 (40:09):
Yeah, that's a great take and great takes all around there, Richie.
We appreciate your time and appreciated seeing you at the
comedy show and how it gone.
Speaker 6 (40:18):
Putting out the he's putting out the umbrella so.
Speaker 3 (40:24):
Lovely stuff.
Speaker 10 (40:24):
All right, well, thanks, he said your useless.
Speaker 3 (40:28):
Oh jeez, Ben's getting ripped on we.
Speaker 6 (40:30):
He just told me that I don't I keep secrets.
Speaker 3 (40:32):
I keep secrets well as much all that's in relation
to Richie. Always good to know.
Speaker 2 (40:37):
And you can catch that kiwisss on My Game live
coverage from five point thirty pm on Sky Sport One
and Sky Sport Now kickoff at six oh five pm.
Speaker 3 (40:46):
Thanks very much for joining us, Richie. And it's good
to know you can keep a secret.
Speaker 5 (40:52):
Jerry, and then the hold I key breakfast.
Speaker 3 (40:55):
Tony Lyland, Ben Hurly and this is that. Ben, We're
done here.
Speaker 1 (41:00):
You're only going to get rudely a working by the
Dustman every second week now, Tony, I know.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
The Dustman and Tiata too are only coming every second
week due to this trial.
Speaker 3 (41:09):
And we actually live on a back back section, so
I don't actually hear him.
Speaker 2 (41:14):
Coming, which can actually be quite infuriating because I don't
know if he's coming or.
Speaker 3 (41:17):
Lot's put the bins out.
Speaker 1 (41:18):
I was just referencing the song.
Speaker 3 (41:19):
Yeah, and I appreciate it. I just got caught up
in this boomery.
Speaker 1 (41:23):
Yeah, it's been a good boomer when's from you today?
I've really enjoyed it.
Speaker 3 (41:26):
Thanks mate, It's been one of those days.
Speaker 1 (41:27):
I strayed into that myself a little bit with the
eighty dollars lamb legs and lots of texts coming in
from around the country, people saying it's also eighty dollars
where they are, and look, look, that rural news really
sparked a lot of feeling and some saying it's the
best rural news ever.
Speaker 3 (41:45):
Is that what they're saying.
Speaker 2 (41:46):
Yeah, we're saying they're certainly saying that it was the
something news ever. We don't need to get bogged down
on the details there though, Ben, And what a weak
in a bit, it's been rude to thank you very
much for having us so he thanks for looking after us.
We're essentially sat here and complained about things while you
guys have done all the real work, so we appreciate it,
and we appreciate all the kind texts that have come
through on three for eight three and also the abusive ones.
Speaker 3 (42:06):
You gotta take the good with the bad.
Speaker 1 (42:08):
No, I don't see any of those.
Speaker 3 (42:10):
Oh, I must have been deleting them before they got
to you.
Speaker 4 (42:14):
Thanks being, Thanks Tony. Jerry will be becking tomorrow and
I was away for another week. I believe Mash Finn
Caddy Finn Kenny is going to be on tomorrow and
then Glane next week. Oh, I don't know if he'll
last the week.
Speaker 1 (42:26):
Yeah, well Glane Maxwell's been moved to a low security prisoner, hasn't.
Speaker 3 (42:30):
We'll see if he makes it through customs again.
Speaker 2 (42:32):
One of the Beagles might sit down beside him as
he does come through at the international airport.
Speaker 3 (42:38):
But big sandysh'es a next with the workday show.
Speaker 1 (42:42):
Thanks for your company, it's been great, height it Argueseller

Speaker 3 (00:12):
And speaking of loads, Ben.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Well, I'm on a email list, and I'm not sure
how I'm on this email list, but you know, we
all we're all on email list and we're not sure
how we got there, right, But it's for the Tatanaki
Health Foundation, which I believe is the entity that raises
money for Tadanaki based hospital in your Plymouth. And they're
doing a fundraiser and it's come through. And the fundraiser
(00:37):
is called Run for ED four hundred kilometers and forty
eight hours. It's a big old charity fun run and
it's for ED. Yes, Now, ED is an acronym for
what's for, Ben Well, it's for a problem that can
affect some men, a dysfunction. Dysfunction. Yes, I don't think
(00:59):
that is what they want to raise the money for.
It does have another.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
Definition emergency department.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
Emergency department.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Yeah, you're thinking it's for a rectile dysfunction. Yeah, And
you're thinking there's some ambiguity there.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
There is. I mean, when I see ED, I think
of one thing. I'm sorry, I.
Speaker 4 (01:20):
Really thought it was when you because you send this
through to the chat yesterday, and I really thought it
was an erect ol dysfunction run.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
It took me about ten minutes to realize why you
could have possibly sent it through, because I mean, I'm
not a maniac constantly thinking about a rectile dysfunction.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Like you Rudis.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
So I was like, well, why would this look like
a lovely story of people running four hundred k and
forty eight hours to raise money for the emergency department?
But you actually consider this could be for men who
are unable to perform in the bedroom.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Yeah, basically, yeah, I mean, you know it's a medical
issue and there are medicines that help you.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Do you think they're doing an event such as a
forty eight hour, four hundred K something that involves incredible
amount of stamina might be rubbing it in the face
of those who do.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
So, rubbing it whether that can help too the face? Look,
I just don't think that they I just never heard
the Immergency Department referred to as the ED before there
was a very popular TV show all through the nineteen
nineties and the two thousands called ER. It wasn't called ED,
(02:25):
I mean possibly for that reason.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Yeah, I'm going to have to I hear where you're
coming from, But I mean the ED is that's common parlance,
A and E.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
You don't go, oh, we've got to go to the ED.
You go, we going to go to A and E
because I've chopped my finger off.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
I hear. I'm right there with you.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
I'm trying not to, you know, yuck, you'r youm here, ben,
But a lot of people do refer to it as
the ED.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Are you sure this never heard it referred to as
the Eden? How old are you again?
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Forty five?
Speaker 2 (02:54):
So you don't think there might be another reason that
when you hear ED, you automatically think of the other one.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Well, I don't know why I'm being specifically targeted here
as a Tartanaki man myself.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
You're really honing it on.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Really you read it Tatanaky Health Foundation run for d
It's like they're reading my texts.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
So I feel like I've been thrown under the bus
because yes, I'm disgusting and I have a filthy mind.
And immediately I saw a run for ED four hundred
kilometers and forty eight hours, and I thought he But
there is actually on the cut and paste that I've
got here says please help ed a big problem for
Taranaki men, and that is why I went down that
road Tony instead of emergency department. So I don't think
(03:34):
this is my fault.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
I mean, I think I wrote that.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
That's that's not in the same that's in Times New Roman.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
That's if you can highlight that, you can delete that, mate,
that's that's written.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
I think I wrote that because I thought that helped
the joke when I was explaining it to you guys.
But yes, look, I don't think anyone sees ED and
thinks emergency department. No normal person. I think they've made
a mistake here, and that's why we're nitpecking it on
the radio right now.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
I'm also looking at the picture of the three people
that are doing the run. Apparently those are the three
people that are doing it, and two of them, I
reckon could well suffer from that problem.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
We've got to text s them through as another Tartanaki
Howard a man even more specifically me, I'm with ben
er or A and e. Jack.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Yeah, well maybe, I mean Taranaki, might you might need
have a chat with your own health department here because
there seems to be some wires crossed. I just can't
get on board. I think the ED is well, it's
the emergency department.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Everyone knows that is okay, hospital worker here, absolutely, everyone
refers to it as the ED. It's on all the signs.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
I'm with this person. ED is the first thing.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Maybe within the industry, but regular people.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
If you polled one hundred people and said when you
were in healthcare, what does ED stand for?
Speaker 1 (04:49):
They would say rectildus function. Not one would maybe ninety
nine point five of.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
The forty five percent year old men who suffer with
a rectial dysfunction would say he would say, agree with you.
But everyone else's their moodency department.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Anyone who's been into the spam folder on their on
their emails has seen ED for that, because you get
spam emails every day about it.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Yeah, there are a lot of pearls out there. And
can I just say that injection I took off the
homeless man in Vegas.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
That certainly helped.

Cuban missile crisis begins and US President John F. Kennedy
has shown photos confirming the presence of Soviet missiles in
Cuba from a U two spy plane. Who was driving
that bono.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
And they were on the edge of war?
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Oh, very good, Tony. The image is sode Soviet Soviet
Soviet medium range ballistic missiles being installed, capable of carrying
nuclear warheads that could reach most of the US within minutes.
The discovery triggered thirteen days of intense tension between the
United States and the Soviet Union. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
John F.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Kennedy handled that well, And I think everything went pretty
well for HME after that.

In nineteen eighty seven, eighteen month old Jessica McClure is

Oh we can't get him out withsay.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Go on TV and sing seeing see we're seeing the
damn well. Wow.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Yeah, I think this fact in here is the maybe
maybe the most interesting. That it was only twenty centimeters wide,
crazy and six Yeah, like I said, six point seven
meters d it's so long and thin to be have
a tiny eighty month old down there.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Far less funny than the Simpsons version.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Yes, Well, in the Simpsons version. It was a crusted

I used to turn it down because I was like,
now women are going to like that too much? Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Well, the good thing about John Mayer is, due to
his scoundrel behaviour, certainly promised some great songs and Taylors
with so thanks about John.

of October twenty twenty five Jerry and.
Speaker 8 (10:04):
Mini the hold I Keep Breakfast now A Questions passed
were giving the ass that want to crouch.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
And being early.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
The question of etiquette today when you're at a bar,
you're waiting in line, it might be heaving.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
The people live right in the center and it is
one of those a classic bar. It's long.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
You sort of make your way when you're to the front.
When you can get there, there's no queue to stand in.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
And yeah, it's never a linear line. No, you you
know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (10:32):
And you're vaguely aware of the people around you. You
kind of know where you sit in the grand scheme
of things. It's the guy slides till I left. He
was actually here before me. But every now again, the
person in front of you will leave, so you'll pop
to the front of the bar. My question of etiquette
for today is when the bartender comes over and asks
who is next? Do you gesture to the person besides you,
(10:53):
who you know has been there for longer than you,
might be further behind the bar than you, or.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Do you say yeah and just get in there with
your with your order.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
That's a whole material. Now, you definitely let someone else
go first. I think if we don't do that, society
breaks down.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
There in a society, Jerry.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Yeah, you know, we've got chaos, We're got anarchy.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
I couldn't agree more.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Even if the person beside me, if I'm pretty sure
that I was there first, I will still.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Be like I think, were you here, Oh, definitely do
a chicken.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
I'll get you the chicken.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
You a welfare check in these situations and say how
do you because they might go, you go, and then
you then you're allowed to go if they give you
the you go back.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
If you're receiving, you go back.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
You can go. It's dangerous though, isn't that because that
person could go, oh too, you know espresso martiniz which
take like forty eight minutes to make, and there's only
one bartender on and you're just getting a beer and
you're like, ah, I've really mucked up here.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
There should be some sort of get out of that
instance code word where if that person knows they've got
to order a punish it. If they're doing around, they're getting,
you know too cranbry Vog has eight Export Ultra and
a glass of milk, then they should go you're just
getting it. You go first, because the milk and the.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Supermarket right, yes, lane, If somebody's you know, just got
a few items and you've got a massive trolley, you
let them go in in front.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
I mean, this is a whole you've blown this wide open, Ben, Really,
this is an incredible sense. There should be an express lane,
and there should be. This is revolutionary.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
Cocktail lane and everything else lane.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
It's like a singles only line at a theme park.
When you're single riders only, you're just there by yourself.
If you're just wanting one beer, maybe two beers or
two whites, and.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
That should be it comes from a bottle or a tap.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Yeah, something they can just hand to you very easily.
And one or two minimum, because then you know you're
getting one for a friend. Anything beyond that, if you're
getting three or more or any mixed drink.
Speaker 4 (12:54):
The problem is, and I've seen this at the supermarket
check it as well. What happens to the person that
then gets in then and he's like, I'm in the
line for one or two beers and he goes, oh, one,
I have one export ultra can I also grab two
bottles of wine? And then just starts doing that? Do
you shame them and kick them out? Because they don't
do that at the supermarket.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
That's the bartender's job.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
The bartender is say, hey, I appreciate you spend money here,
but you're going to want to take your ass to
the back of the big queue.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
I like it.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
This here is the this is the express queue.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Yeah. I Also if you get to the front of
that line and you look like you're going to order
a beer or two and then you get two bottles
of wine. There are other problems that play here. Yeah,
you get you know, you're going to end up in
the A and X.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
Just get really caught up in the export ulture mansion.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
You also might suffer from ed.

Jury and midnight the hold Ikey Breakfast, Jurry and midnight
the hold Ikey Breakfast.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
I feel like we've got this platform being we've kind
of got to use it. Yes to our advantage pectually, Yes,
and personal grievances.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
Oh is this you rubbish chair?
Speaker 3 (14:00):
This is my rubbish.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Chat, Tody's rubbish chat.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
I have realized it. Every time I have to make
up a sting on the spot, it starts.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
With yeah, I've never heard that as part of a
sting me neither.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Are just trying to do, you know, cool radio noises.
I received the letter in the mail, and essentially the
guts of this letter was that the rubbish which is
normally taken once a week, and i'd imagine that's fairly
uniform around the place, they're going to do a trial
in my suburb and some other suburbs around this area,
and they're only going to take it every two weeks.
(14:35):
Now they're saying why we're proposing this, And in this
they say that there's basically a lot of rubbish, enough
to fill Eden Park every week over the whole of
the city. So this is an effort to reduce rubbish,
that's what they're saying, and so they're only going to
take it every two weeks.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
But on this I call bes.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
I say, this isn't about saving rubbish. I say, this
is about saving money by not seeing the rubbish trucks
out every single a week. And now I've got to
have a bin full of literal human excrement due to
the fact that I have an infant child on my
property somewhere for a fortnight over summer, going absolutely rancid.
And now they're saying this is to save rubbish. I
(15:15):
still make the same amount of rubbish in two weeks.
Just because it's not getting picked up every week doesn't
mean I make less rubbish.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Mate, you've not even finished your opening rant to this,
and we have a text in saying the good people
of Tiata two need to make a fuss about this
so that they don't roll it out to the rest
of the city. You have a responsibility as a ratepayer
within the Auckland Supercity to make sure because this could
spread throughout the city and even New Zealand.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
Well, it could spread, and that's what I worry about,
is that it will spreading because this person has banged
on that's the sun that I live in Tiata two,
and I know that that doesn't apply to everyone who's
listening right now. Some of you will be in other
cities thinking, oh, this is just you complaining about you
up your little bubble up in Auckland, and no it isn't.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
This could affect everyone.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
It'll catch on like the bubonic plague and before you
know it, you're gonna have rubbish shitting in your driveway
for two weeks and the council will be saying, no,
this is to save the environment, when really they're just
saving themselves a buck or two.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
So I live in the western Bay of Plenty and
we have a weekly rubbish collection still because you know,
we're not animals like you are in but we have
a we have a fortnightly recycling collection. What are you
running in Tata.
Speaker 3 (16:27):
Two fortnightly as well?
Speaker 2 (16:29):
And okay, Brendan Dick has just text through on three
four eight three and seid it's every two weeks in
christ Church. Brendan, I ask you, is that you're rubbish?
Your regular rubbish. So you only get the rubbish collected
two weeks at night in christ Church because that seems
too long. And I mean, this is good to know
because if you can do it in christ which we
can do it anywhere. But I just think the thing
(16:49):
that annoys me the most, and I really think it's
that when they explain it by saying they're trying to
make it as good for I just say we're trying
to save rates. Just say we're trying to save money.
I'm fine that if that's the idea behind it. But
they're trying to make me feel like a bad guy. Yeah,
for one of my rubbish picked up. And I can't
triss this enough.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
You can't tell your infant child to pools.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
I tell him every day. He's I even said infant.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
I thought you did.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
He's ad.
Speaker 4 (17:18):
Also, Tony, you said Auckland, sin's around one point five
million tons of rubbish to landfill every year, enough to
fill Eden Park. Got a tix through On three four
eight three someone said the Blues were filling up Eden
Park was rubbish every week the Super Rugby season.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Yeah take that. The Blues Highlanders for life. Yeah, it
does seem like christis.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Might be every two weeks and Taranaki, well, boy, oh boy,
am I feeling like a big city complainer right about now?
Speaker 1 (17:43):
Maybe it was maybe two weeks in Hamilton, alternating rubbish
and recycling each week. Okay, it's already, it's already here, Tony.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Yeah, Well maybe we're the last to know. And now
we're being the we're the batman here. We're trying to
revolutionize the rest of his yelds rubbish collection to make
it to one week everywhere.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Goodness me, when's it going to hit the Western Bay
of Plenty? I hope not too soon?
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Also every two weeks, and we really we're getting told
here and I do like it.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
We're learning. I'm open to new things, so maybe maybe
I can be flexible here. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (18:15):
Jerry and Midnight the Htarchy Breakfast.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Geez, you've got some rubbish chat, I really do.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
It's trash, it's garbage.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
The Area eleven is proposing changing rubbish collection to two
weeks from one week, and it does seem like the
texts coming through on three four eight three, A lot
of the country already has this two week collection.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
Yes, that's right. It looks like a new Plymouth, a
toadunger Dunedin and gray Mouth.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
There's also a text and I think this is a
very astute observation. They're saying that it's a lot colder
in these other areas, so you rubbish doesn't go off
as quickly, because that's what happens in ours. The only
spot where you can really put the bin dust get
a lot of afternoon sun, so it really does warm
that bin up into a nice slurry. And I can
only imagine what that is going to smell like after
(19:03):
two weeks of sitting in the sun.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Yeah, maybe it is a seasonal thing. Maybe they should,
you know, maybe two weeks during winter and then in
the summer months definitely weekly.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
It's going to be hot and heavy. Someone asking will
you get bigger bins? Which that is an option. It
does say you can apply for a bigger bin. You
can also apply for a secondary bin.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
Hang on what I thought this was all to reduce
the amount of rubbish. Yeah, but you can apply for
a bigger or a second bin.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Yees, So the same amount of rubbish gets collected every
two weeks. And I will say this, they are offering
a small rates rebate depending on what bin you are
getting collected, so I think it's something like twenty six dollars.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
Don't quote me on that.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Yeah, there's a motivating factor. Now, how full is your
regular bin every week generally? Is it full to the brim?
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Pretty full?
Speaker 1 (19:52):
Yeah? I mean you do a lot of kids.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I do have three whipper snappers, and yeah, it's the
nappies that get me, you know, when it's they start
to hum.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
I mean, I don't want to anyone's breakfast time. No, no,
not mine. No, I just go straight in the bin.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
But you've really motivated the two textas that you guys
have just lost your supermarket. I used to live in
Tiato two Peninsula before we move down to the to
the Bay. But that supermarket was was very handy. God
knows where you go now.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
Yeah, while you just go to the local fruit store,
shout out greens.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Yep, it'll come back. It's getting rejuvenized. So I can't
complain about the I don't want to mix the streams here.
I don't want to get lost and chat someone saying
by a bin liner it's if that's I don't.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
Think that's the issue here.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
That's that's not a solution.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Yeah, no, You can't just put your dirty filth in
a bag and have it sort itself out.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Do you know what? I envisited your world where the
rubbish men and women out there on the streets sort of,
you know, doing a wonderful service and kind of singing
as they do it. Rhoda, who can take your treasure?
Speaker 5 (21:09):
Stop it down for you, shake the plastic bag and
do the twisty thing you do.
Speaker 9 (21:16):
The garbage man.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
The garbage man, he does.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
Sequent the smile and ever judges you take this diaper.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
We're still going.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
That's two Simpson songs in one breakfast show. I mean,
that is beautiful stuff. And I think this text on
three for three really sums it up where he says
my local playground rubbish bin never refuses rubbish take.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Yeah, that's a very good point.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
And that's what it will.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
That's what it's going to come to. I think the
little local park at the end of my street is
going to get hooked up.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Not by me. I would never do such a thing.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
But there's already some habitual fly tippers. But I do
worry that the fly tipping, if you didn't, is going
to catch on? Is it?
Speaker 1 (22:03):
What fly tipping is?
Speaker 2 (22:04):
Yeah, flight tipping when you just go to a sub
a random end of a culder sack, open your boot
and just have at.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
It when you you know, you hear a thing and
you didn't know what it was, and then that makes
perfect sense, okay.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
And a tip for young players if you are got
a fly tip, which of course would never encourage at all,
but always just make sure you don't have any sort
of old bills or you know, the delivery address of
your groceries on a brown paper bab because that will
come back to bite.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
You with that.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
One time and we got to scap, we did a
big clean out, and we got to scap outside the house,
and of course some people dump their rubbish and I
lost my mind and I went through the rubbish trying
to find like trying to find an envelope or or
something and find out how it was. And they were
smart enough not to have put any of that in there.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
I'm sure they did leave a lot of DNA for
you to scram through, but.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
I did definitely have somebody's rubbish all over my body.
Speaker 5 (22:56):
Jerry and Mini the hod Ikey Breakfast.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Local body leaksans were held all over the country over
the weekend, and it's nice to break over the colls.
You know, Ben, we're a political show very much, so
we like to have our ends plugged into the sockets
of politics, if.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
That is indeed a saying.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
And with that in mind, we have on the show
joining us the newly elected well really really Mayor of Gore,
Ben Bow.
Speaker 10 (23:22):
Good morning, Ben, Oh, good morning Jent Sally.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
We're very well think you now.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
You sort of rose to fame as a twenty three
year old last election cycle, grabbing the meural chains of
Gore as the youngest ever elected official in New Zealand
in the Meordy seat at least. Do you feel that
now you're twenty six, you're much older and wiser now
you've been reelected.
Speaker 9 (23:47):
Yeah, I think in local government you age and dog
is so while I may have only aged three years,
in the real world, I feel like I've aged like
ten to twenty three years. I'm in my sixties now.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Really well, I can see why it was a slightly
tumultuous term. There was some you know, calls of vote
of no confidence. But the first time you won the
seat was by eight votes. This time was by like
two thousand, right, So you're doing something right.
Speaker 9 (24:16):
Ben, Yeah, yeah, it's a weird feeling this time time
three years ago. I was very nervous today because we
get the final results today, whereas it's pretty crazy this
time around. So yeah, something must have gone right, I'm
guessing now.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
I know that's pretty happy.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
I know it was tight last time being in this time,
like you said, it went well for you, and we
sort of put some thought into what you could use
next time as well, and we made up at a
little bit of a slow get a little musical backing
that you could use as part of your campaign.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
It goes like this, Goya elected again.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
Do you think that that might be something you incorporated
into your official campaign? This Maror of Gore song?
Speaker 10 (25:00):
Absolutely?
Speaker 3 (25:01):
Oh that's brilliant.
Speaker 7 (25:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (25:04):
Is it going to cost me anything or well?
Speaker 1 (25:06):
I don't know there potentially, Yeah, are we right there?
Speaker 3 (25:10):
Didn't we?
Speaker 9 (25:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (25:11):
No?
Speaker 1 (25:12):
I mean National you know went with the eminem song
for a while and they didn't land them in any
hot water, did it?
Speaker 5 (25:18):
No?
Speaker 9 (25:18):
No, that wasn't headlines at all, was it?
Speaker 1 (25:21):
I think it was. It was good.
Speaker 9 (25:22):
I mean any media is good good media, right, So
come a bit of copy right now?
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Now, Ben, what's the rubbish situation in Gore, question about
my local councilor's proposing a change from weekly rubbish collection
to fortnitely and you know, it sort of racks me
up a little bit. And it does seem that a
lot of the country already has fortnite a collection. What
are you dealing with and what would you like to see?
Speaker 9 (25:46):
Wow, your your fingers really on the pulse of your
politics to your boys. So and Gore, we're actually turning
on recycling again. It was something I campaigned on last
time around. From November third we will be recycling. So
going back to a red burn week and then recycling
the other week then.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
So I don't want to hold your feet to the
fly here. Maybe you're telling me no recycling And Gore, No,
we we.
Speaker 9 (26:11):
Had we had no recyct well we had glass, but
it just kind of went to the top.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Not that anybody knows that.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
Busted this wide open.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Yes, this is John Campbell Investigates.
Speaker 9 (26:22):
Yeah, yeah, no, So we're turning it back on. My
predecessor turned it off because there was some contract issues.
But yeah, we're back into it now. We actually had
the Local Lines group. They do a fantastic recycling servers
for us, a bunch of other retired guys and the
nineties who do there was most of the businesses in town,
so they do an awesome job. But we're turning on
(26:44):
the curb side stuff again, which were pretty stoked about.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
I mean that really does sound like we're starting at
the bottom, but still and just to get there clarified. So,
how how often is the rubbish pickup? We don't, I
don't want to dodge any questions.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
No, no, it's all good.
Speaker 9 (26:57):
So fortnightly now, so it's been as fortnightly and then
your yellow bin which is recycling as fortnightly as so
it's an ulternate's week tonate.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Ye, it seems to be quite a common one around
the around the motu. Now, Ben, what other promises did
you campaign on this time?
Speaker 9 (27:15):
This time round? I campaigned on economic development, So Gore
is right for an economic boom. We've got a lot
of Aucklanders looking to move down our way. Yes, big
business here. We've got a fantastic library, pool, ice, skating rank,
you name it. It's an awesome place to be. So
really trying to drive big industry.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
And Gore, yeah you had me at we do recycling
now now I know we're filling in for Jerry m
and I here on the Honaki Breakfast.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
Ben, you are the mayor of Gore.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Do you think that there is any lingering resentment towards
our own Jeremy Wells.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
In the area.
Speaker 9 (27:52):
I'd be naive to say not.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
I mean, is it something you should double down on? Ben?
You know, and he chase that pink dollar and be
gay old Gore.
Speaker 10 (28:03):
Just just go with its.
Speaker 9 (28:06):
That's a curse with it in my neck of the woods.
I don't know how we'll go down with my considerate
but hey, when when Guy Williamson town doing an interview,
we invited Jeremy down to squash the beef. We'd love
to bring him down to you know, put it in
the past, but yet to get a text from him.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
So, yeah, is that why you're doing this interview with
us today?
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Normally, with Jerrem and I you wouldn't be able to
appear due to the potential hitting the polls. But with
Ben Hurley and Tony Le you're free to appear.
Speaker 9 (28:33):
Yeah, exactly. I'm guessing that's why I've never come on
the shows, because I'm guessing Jeremy probably I think that
he's maybe a bit scared of me. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Oh, I meet us up a resolution of some sorts. Well,
thank you very much for joining us being. We appreciate it,
and best of luck with this current turn.
Speaker 8 (28:51):
Jerry and Mini, the Hodarchy Breakfastdarchey.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
Breakfast Master Mine and yesterday had a little look at
Wales and of the project manager from Topaul took away
two hundred big ones.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
I mean it was my fault, it was your fault.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
You humulated yourself and he won on a captain's challenge,
which means that today it resets to fifty dollars and
if it doesn't go today, one hundred dollars on the
line tomorrow and Jim Bowl Jef for a prime minister
very sadly passing away today at the age of ninety,
so to honor him. Today's Mastermind topic is famous gyms, and.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
On the line we have we have a gym. We've
got James who's a professor at Messy fan Purur. Is
that correct?
Speaker 6 (29:35):
That is correct?
Speaker 4 (29:36):
Good morning, guys?
Speaker 1 (29:37):
How are you? How are you? Do you go by
Jim at all?
Speaker 10 (29:40):
I do go by Jim? Actually, so yeah, this.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Is this show is just falling into place. It really
isn't it really is? And how often do you put
your bit out?
Speaker 3 (29:49):
Jim?
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Once a week? Once a week?
Speaker 3 (29:55):
And God intended?
Speaker 1 (29:57):
So you you live in Fanngapurur, but you work at
Massy Albany. Would that be right? That's correct.
Speaker 10 (30:03):
I'm at the Albany campus.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
Yeah, okay, what's your subject there, Jim?
Speaker 6 (30:07):
I'm a zoologist ecologist?
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Okay, you would have been good with Wales yesterday.
Speaker 6 (30:14):
I would have been and yeah, but here we are
with Jim.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
They should be good with Jim's as well, so he
is hoping this is fantastic news. All right, Jim, you've
got forty five seconds. We'll ask you five questions and
you've got to get three correct to win the fifty
bucks if you're going to pass past quickly and we'll
come back to it. There is, of course the justice
for Tony Klaus. If we stuff it up, you win,
which is what happened yesterday because I stuffed it up.
And you can call for a captain's challenge if you
(30:39):
think we've made a mistake at the end. Just called
captain's challenge. And do you understand I understand let's go
based on yesterday.
Speaker 3 (30:48):
I think have that captain's challenge called pretty.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Close, pretty close to you? Your time starts now. Which
professional wrestler won the first ever Royal Rumble in nineteen
eighty eight. Who was the creator of the Garfield comic
strips correct? Which who famously used the term Cumburgers on
a TV one We're the forecast? Australian businessman Jim Penman
(31:15):
founded which lawn care company in nineteen eighty nine. Who
is the guitarist for led Zeppelin Jimmy Page Correct? Which
professional wrestler won the first ever Royal Rumble in nineteen
eighty eight.
Speaker 6 (31:30):
I got nothing for that.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
Who famously used the term Comburger's on a TV one
We're the Forecast.
Speaker 4 (31:40):
Tough.
Speaker 7 (31:41):
It was tough Burgers and a bit of frost, while
they're sort of comburgers, you.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
Know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
I know we played that Jim Hackey clip there, but
I do believe underneath that great Comburger's clip, I heard
Jim calling a captain's shilling.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
Oh really, I was just joking. Those questions were hired.
They were, and we detect an accent there a North
American accent. Jim, where are you from? Originally from Montreal, Canada.
Yeah I did. I thought it was a bit of
Canadian in there. Yeah, so you probably missed the great
Jim Hicky saying that the term comburgers on TV just
(32:18):
a great piece of New Zealand television.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
There.
Speaker 3 (32:21):
Can we have that again? Please?
Speaker 7 (32:22):
Ruder Rader's a gone burger. But the showers and and
a bit of frost, well they're sort of comburgers.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
You know what I mean. We didn't know what he meant.
Speaker 4 (32:32):
I know what he meant, man, I mean the showers
are gone and there's the rainers coming.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Okay, did you get Jim's mowing?
Speaker 5 (32:41):
No.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
Australian businessman Jim Penman founded Which Lawn Jim, Yeah, that
would that would have got.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
You there, especially when I was a Which Lawn care company.
And yeah, gyms, it's almost right now.
Speaker 4 (32:52):
We're about a number one though, Ben number one.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
Yeah. A professional wrestler won the first ever Royal Rumber
in nineteen eighty eight. Hacks Or Jim duggan O. Yeah,
not a wrestling fan. Oh there, Jim, No, I am,
I'm not. Really doesn't really go with your professorial sort
of character, does it. You prefer things that are real. Yeah,
(33:19):
that's right.
Speaker 3 (33:20):
Well, as they say in academia, jim Unluggy Yours.
Speaker 8 (33:25):
Jurry and Midnight, The hold Ikey Breakfast, Jerry and Midnight,
The hold Ikey Breakfast.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
The clash going down on Sunday, Ben Hurly, the Kiwi's
taking on Tors some more in the first game of
the twenty twenty five Pacific Championships six pm.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
So a nice evening game.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
Evening calling get an afternoon game, but it is daylight saving,
so it will be daylight.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
It will be nice and nice lights at hopefully at
full stadium. And to talk us through what to expect,
we have former Shark rooster and Kiwi's captain Ritchie.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
Ritchie, What's going on? What's going to happen on Sunday?
Speaker 7 (34:04):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (34:05):
My goodness, isn't it great? I Mean, this is what
I love about the Pacific Championships, with the unpredictability, with
the players now priedging the allegiance to their to the
nations and bolstering their side. You know, I think this
probably the slowest, you know, Salmon has been probably the
slowest out of all to really gain some momentum in
terms of players coming into the poor and you know,
(34:26):
kind of been leading that for some time, but prediction
for me and if I take the emotional thing out,
I think I think the Kiwis should witness one. But
with the unpredictability when you've got paper in paying hears
back into the fray Terrell May and the side. I mean,
that's the unpredictability. Predictability about the Championship Ya Tour.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
Samoa is absolutely stacked. As you say, that front row
is ridiculous and you know, look we've got a legend
in the halves uh with Kieren Foran, but he is
I think in his late fifties, isn't.
Speaker 6 (34:59):
He actually actually it's incredible in it. He's so right
Karen Fauran, isn't it The curtain comes down again and
again and again. But this is just a beautiful way
for Karen to close the door and is an incredible
resilient career to be able to do, just to have
(35:19):
that one more shot in the Kiwi jersey and hopefully
it'll be a good one at that his combination with
Dylan Brown is going to be incredible. Hughes is not
amongst that because of his injury, but what a combination
we've got there on the other side too. Blaze Telungey
and Jerome Blue White. That is just a matchup. Actually,
every position that you've got now is mouth watering, you know.
(35:41):
Great to see Roger back at full back for some
more against Chance Nicole Coott's dad, which there's been debate
about whether Roger should be at fullback in the Warriors.
Now there's a chance. Actually the showcase is it? Really
this is going to be incredible to show that. I
love the fact that you're looking at two thirteen's at
the back too, Junior Paula against Joseph Tarpan who's been
(36:01):
in such unbelievable form, and there is a.
Speaker 3 (36:04):
Lot of talent running around out there.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
And I mean you talk about Roger Turbarsischik, he's changed
codes before an All Black of course, and speaking of
changing codes, the big story when it comes to the
NRL at the moment is this ten year band proposed
by Peter Landers for agents and players who negotiate with
R three sexty.
Speaker 3 (36:22):
What's your take on that one? Do you think that's
a fair shot?
Speaker 10 (36:25):
Actually, if I put three million in front of me,
just as from a place to spect them from a
I think from a sporting perspective, and keeping the integrative
our whole game together.
Speaker 6 (36:42):
And what we've seen with NRL now it's growing substantially,
it's really in good shape. I think it's probably the
right move to keep everything then paid more than ever two.
To be fair, the NRL players now are played extremely well.
Here's always going to be more in front of you
over the period of time. But I think it's like
the Super League r L battle back in the day
and the toll that the sport apart, and I think
(37:04):
they must have learned from the past and this is
probably just an act of solid area to keep it
in place. And it's rightly so because you've got rugby
as well. You've got so many sports trying to draw
in around. In fact, we do a good job at
pulling their rugby.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
Hey, would you and if your phone rang Richie, would
you answer the call of artistics?
Speaker 1 (37:24):
Else?
Speaker 6 (37:24):
Absolutely yes, I'll keep that secret just between us.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
Is that the reality of it, Richie, is that you
know you'll play maybe not you specifically, but players will
play sort of the first ten years of their of
their careers in the NRL and then go oh, well
it's only a ten year band and then jump ship
in over thirties league.
Speaker 6 (37:50):
Yeah, I know, it's an interesting of the lifespan of
a player and what next, you know, players can you know?
Ten years is great in the game. It's it's very
rare that you're able to play ten years in a
sport like the NRL. But i' to be able to
have that option to go somewhere or else and finish
(38:10):
your career off on a high and reward yourself with
more money.
Speaker 1 (38:14):
Yeah, And I reckon, Karen Fan could go and do
another ten years, isn't it right?
Speaker 9 (38:18):
Could he could?
Speaker 6 (38:20):
He could? Actually could?
Speaker 2 (38:21):
And while we've got you on the hot button issues there, Richie,
we've been talking Ben and I all week basically about
the Origin issue when it comes to Kiwi players. Of course,
Tasa my players are able to play Origin. Do you
think that the door should be open for Kiwi's players
to be able to represent.
Speaker 3 (38:36):
One of the states.
Speaker 6 (38:37):
Of course I think it should be. Definitely, I think
they should be. And because the Aussies will always have
and they always have pouched players over the years. They
always have. They dangled the Karen in front of many
Kiwi players and so rightly so we should be a
part of it. But I honestly think that it really
(38:58):
should be for for all these and I think what
we should have is a window where the Pacific Championship
should be in alignment with the Origin series, so we
play it in fairness that players are able to have
a genuine pathway internationally for our game. That's why this
championship is so important. But yet what comes in front
(39:18):
of us is the Origin and the NRL season. It's
just too compelling on the body for most of the players,
and they're just not willing to open that door for
players to play through that as well, because it's a
lot of play during the year when you offer another
tournament apart from the Origin and there it's just a
massive burden on all the players. But we've got to
(39:40):
get some money, can we. International windows are very small
and they don't have much, So how were supposed to
be successful in this game? And we're the one that's
hurt the most from all the players moving ship, We're
the one stuck in the middle where we've just been
pulled apart. You know, the Origin players now the island
nations are now moving rightly so to their their favored nation,
(40:03):
but we're stuck in the middle for the Kiwis and
we haven't really said much about it, but we're the
ones that are probably hurt the most.
Speaker 2 (40:09):
Yeah, that's a great take and great takes all around there, Richie.
We appreciate your time and appreciated seeing you at the
comedy show and how it gone.
Speaker 6 (40:18):
Putting out the he's putting out the umbrella so.
Speaker 3 (40:24):
Lovely stuff.
Speaker 10 (40:24):
All right, well, thanks, he said your useless.
Speaker 3 (40:28):
Oh jeez, Ben's getting ripped on we.
Speaker 6 (40:30):
He just told me that I don't I keep secrets.
Speaker 3 (40:32):
I keep secrets well as much all that's in relation
to Richie. Always good to know.
Speaker 2 (40:37):
And you can catch that kiwisss on My Game live
coverage from five point thirty pm on Sky Sport One
and Sky Sport Now kickoff at six oh five pm.
Speaker 3 (40:46):
Thanks very much for joining us, Richie. And it's good
to know you can keep a secret.
Speaker 5 (40:52):
Jerry, and then the hold I key breakfast.
Speaker 3 (40:55):
Tony Lyland, Ben Hurly and this is that. Ben, We're
done here.
Speaker 1 (41:00):
You're only going to get rudely a working by the
Dustman every second week now, Tony, I know.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
The Dustman and Tiata too are only coming every second
week due to this trial.
Speaker 3 (41:09):
And we actually live on a back back section, so
I don't actually hear him.
Speaker 2 (41:14):
Coming, which can actually be quite infuriating because I don't
know if he's coming or.
Speaker 3 (41:17):
Lot's put the bins out.
Speaker 1 (41:18):
I was just referencing the song.
Speaker 3 (41:19):
Yeah, and I appreciate it. I just got caught up
in this boomery.
Speaker 1 (41:23):
Yeah, it's been a good boomer when's from you today?
I've really enjoyed it.
Speaker 3 (41:26):
Thanks mate, It's been one of those days.
Speaker 1 (41:27):
I strayed into that myself a little bit with the
eighty dollars lamb legs and lots of texts coming in
from around the country, people saying it's also eighty dollars
where they are, and look, look, that rural news really
sparked a lot of feeling and some saying it's the
best rural news ever.
Speaker 3 (41:45):
Is that what they're saying.
Speaker 2 (41:46):
Yeah, we're saying they're certainly saying that it was the
something news ever. We don't need to get bogged down
on the details there though, Ben, And what a weak
in a bit, it's been rude to thank you very
much for having us so he thanks for looking after us.
We're essentially sat here and complained about things while you
guys have done all the real work, so we appreciate it,
and we appreciate all the kind texts that have come
through on three for eight three and also the abusive ones.
Speaker 3 (42:06):
You gotta take the good with the bad.
Speaker 1 (42:08):
No, I don't see any of those.
Speaker 3 (42:10):
Oh, I must have been deleting them before they got
to you.
Speaker 4 (42:14):
Thanks being, Thanks Tony. Jerry will be becking tomorrow and
I was away for another week. I believe Mash Finn
Caddy Finn Kenny is going to be on tomorrow and
then Glane next week. Oh, I don't know if he'll
last the week.
Speaker 1 (42:26):
Yeah, well Glane Maxwell's been moved to a low security prisoner, hasn't.
Speaker 3 (42:30):
We'll see if he makes it through customs again.
Speaker 2 (42:32):
One of the Beagles might sit down beside him as
he does come through at the international airport.
Speaker 3 (42:38):
But big sandysh'es a next with the workday show.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
