Come on after Bramby.

Speaker 5 (02:32):
No, not Lamby, not Lamb or maybe Lamby Mary Lanbry
Lamby's she runs the Subway.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
No, not Mary Lambie, not Mary Lamby with Jim Morro,
her husband. After her car.

Speaker 5 (02:44):
You went in her car, I went mar Dihatsu charad.
She'd smelled like old shoes. Shouldn't be doing that with
some it actually shit. What had happened was Mary Lamby
was working as Auckland TV newsreader and I was, I think,
at broadcasting school, and she'd offered for people to come

(03:06):
along and a little bit of work experience. So I
went along and watched it being filmed as work experience,
and then she dropped me home in her die Hatsu charade.
And and what had happened to her car was there
had been a leak. She'd left the window down in
the charade, and a whole lot of rain had got
in charade.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
I had to charade, is it?

Speaker 5 (03:27):
I always thought it was a charade.

Speaker 7 (03:28):
I always thought it.

Speaker 5 (03:29):
Was It's a soft day. And unfortunately the carpet had
rotted in the charade charade. And now I'm focused on
that to the story and the carpeter rotted. Mary Lemby's
diatsu charade and charade it was about an eighty nine

(03:51):
charade and Manuel it was a manual. She was quite
proficient through the through the manual gears. Actually she changed
down nicely, Mary Lamby smooth, very smooth, no kangaroo guess,
very smooth. And she dropped me home very kindly. What
a lovely one.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
And since then we've got on like a house on fire?
Did Jeff? Is that Jeremy's lame claim to fame? Right?
It's just texture on three four three.

Speaker 5 (04:16):
It's one that Mary Lamby once dropped me home and
her die hat su sharabah.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
You need to call through after eight o'clock with your
lame claim to fame because it's Tuesday.

Speaker 5 (04:23):
Where do my lame claimed fom start? I mean, Angela
Dawdney sat on my desk in a leopard print mini
skirt once.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
Save it for eight. That doesn't sound lame in it.
Sarah Bradley, Sarah Sarah Bradley's who was thinking of? Because
I and this is the most frustrating, if you ask
my long suffering partner, this is my most frustrating habit.
In her book, as I watch I watched the Parliament
channel on TV. That drives her insane. I watched it

(04:49):
all debate in Parliament. And then the other one is
I watch Al Jazeera and there's nothing else on it,
and that also drives her insane. And I was watching
one of their special features the other day and they
would do you, I don't know, like a piece on Tahiti.
I think New Caledonia. Anyway, Sarah Bradley was on there
and she was reporting for our Jaziah. I know why

(05:11):
you like Siah really, because.

Speaker 7 (05:16):
Why you like syruhstic integrity?

Speaker 6 (05:19):
Right?

Speaker 1 (05:19):
It was because she was on Good Morning when I
was of schooling age, and so if I ever was sick,
almost the bus and I was home for the whole day.
It was just me, Sarah and Brendan Pongett and esther
who would do all the flowers?

Speaker 5 (05:34):
What about Stephen Gray doing the doing the gymnastics?

Speaker 1 (05:38):
Don't remember Stephen Gray?

Speaker 5 (05:40):
Okay, she was my Stephen Gray. She he was my
She was my grandmother's favorite. She loved Stephen Gray. Him
doing the Jesus side was her favorite thing. He was
the movie reviewer, that's right. Who then who then became
move reviewer? Come come pseudo host. Yeah, that was Esther

(06:00):
as well when someone was and Esther Great New Zealander.
She's still doing flower arrangements.

Speaker 1 (06:05):
Stephen Gray reserved point guard for the Washington Wizards.

Speaker 5 (06:08):
No, absolutely not.

Speaker 1 (06:10):
Think it's a different guy. No, I'll have to keep
googling back to Sarah.

Speaker 5 (06:13):
Bradley and your love of Sarah Bradley.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
Didn't well, like, I do love it.

Speaker 5 (06:18):

Speaker 5 (06:29):
Partner is not until you liking Sarah Bradley.

Speaker 1 (06:33):
It's got nothing to do with.

Speaker 6 (06:39):
Jerry and Midnight, the hold Ikey breakfast.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
Out in the others.

Speaker 5 (06:44):
So for the history of Yesterday, Today, tomorrow, timar Room.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
Jordan pil On this day in nineteen eighteen World War One,
I missed this signed by the Allies and Germany comes
into effect. Hostilities ended at eleven am, the eleventh hour
of the eleventh day of the eleventh marks. That's like
Bloody Bilbo, the Bilbo Baggins tee this it's silly that.

Speaker 5 (07:06):
I mean, if you were at nine to fifty two,
you know what I mean, cur hostilities just not end
at midnight the night before.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
Ten fifty nine, I'm lighting you up. If I see
you around the corner and he's still going, should have
kept your head down. It marked the end of four
years of conflict that had killed more than sixteen million
people and reshaped global politics. Germany was not allowed to
negotiate terms. They were presented with conditions and told that
they had to accept them to stop the collapse of
the front. I mean, yeah, it was a terrible war,

(07:39):
but also just telling Germany, hey, here's how it's going
to go. That's where World War two came.

Speaker 5 (07:45):
That's how it all started.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
Germany, Jim and Allows, Bulgaria, the Ottoman Empire, and Austria
Hungary had fallen. The German military was exhausted and retreating
US troops and resources had decisively tipped the balance. There
were still heavy casualties on the morning of those member
even because many units were ordered into action up to
the final minutes.

Speaker 5 (08:03):
I think five G went down. That's the problem.

Speaker 1 (08:06):
That five G went down that morning and the message
didn't get out to people, what stop stop?

Speaker 5 (08:12):
Who was the last person to be shot in World
War One? There was someone that's a great question. That
is a great question.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
Estimates suggests over twenty seven hundred men were killed on
the last day, so it's going to be hard to
find which one of them was the last What of
waste news spread across the world with an hour's massive
celebrations erupted across the globe. What did they get, like
a notification on their phones, like when there's a tsunami
warning here? What about we got one of those in
America that a child had been abducted. I know, I
don't know how they did that. I thought there was

(08:40):
a tsunami and I was like, we're about seven hundred
k's in then, how they didn't?

Speaker 5 (08:43):
I would have thought there's a lot of bad things
happening in Texas. Yea, A child being abducted is not bad,
but man, there's a lot of bad stuff oppening.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
Yeah. Nineteen eighty seven, Van go Van goff Iris's sells
for a record price US fifty three point nine million,
the most expensive painting at the time. That would be
around two hunred and seventy million New Zealand dollars today.

Speaker 7 (09:04):
Too much, You reckon, Jerry, I reckon.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
They paid too much for that. The what would you
pay for that? Fifty? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (09:10):
I reckon like two thirty five million.

Speaker 1 (09:13):
The record payment for a work is approximately US four
hundred and fifty MILLI for Selver Tour Monday in twenty seventeen.
The painting was done around fifteen hundred AD and is
generally considered to be by Leonardo da Vinci, though this
is disputed. I'm not paying four and fifty million. If
I don't know who painted it, well, that's just me.

Speaker 5 (09:33):
I think it was Leonardo de Vinci. I think I
think widely considered means it was.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
Oh no, but I want a bit more than widely considered.
If I'm dropping four to fifty.

Speaker 5 (09:43):
If you turn up to someone's house and they're like,
by the way, I just bought this de VINSI here
it is here. I mean you want a Devinci in
your house if you could have one?

Speaker 1 (09:53):
Yes, safe airs, but.

Speaker 8 (09:55):
We reckon.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
It's where reckon, it's by division? Yes, I reckon fair enough?
Apparently could be yea quarter to fifty mil, have it.
Two thousand and six, PlayStation three launches in Japan. Around
one hundred thousand units were available in Japan, and they
sold out swiftly long queues formed outside stores, with some
people waiting overnight. The console was launched with both twenty

(10:16):
gigabyte and sixty gigabyte hard drive models, and twenty g
was modeled at around sixty thousand yen around fourteen hundred
and fifty dollars a day. Damn. Some minor pushing and
shoving occurred at one store, leading to police intervention to
manage the crowd. Oh my god, push it shoving well.

Titanic and Wolf of Wall Street and may or may
not have painted that painting that sold for four hundred
fifty million. He's fifty one today. Fifty one. Yeah, see

Speaker 5 (11:14):
I'm forty forty eight, forty eight, he is your age.

Speaker 1 (11:18):
He is very close fifty one.

Speaker 5 (11:20):
He's way older than pretty close to trust me, when

that just in a bin outside on his deck. I
picked up that.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
Bat that he hit.

Speaker 5 (12:01):
That shot.

Speaker 1 (12:02):
It wasn't the mongos that one, was it?

Speaker 5 (12:03):
Now? It was a cocker barrough before that and and

Rain has denied New Zealand their first opportunity to wrap
up the T twenty International cricket series against the West Indies.

four was abandoned in Nelson with the visitors thirty eight
for one. New Zealand lead the series to one ahead
of Thursday's fifth and final match in Dunedin.

Speaker 1 (13:00):

all morning, then it stops just enough for you to
start get about half an hour of gameplay in and
then oh it's raining. But then classic New Zealand Creek
well international cricket, they're always like, well, we're going to

I would say a majority of people from christ Church
will land on show week, right, gotcha? I beg when
July July is about nine months from now, almost exactly. Yeah, okay,

Jerry and mid Night, the Hotarchy Breakfast.

Speaker 1 (15:23):
Houcky's biggest lose.

Speaker 5 (15:28):
You're going back in time and I spoil his tense
at the gym at the beginning of the year and
set himself a target of getting under one hundred kg's
by the end.

Speaker 1 (15:35):
Of the year. Same target I've set myself every year
for probably about the last ten years. And I would
like to share some good news. I think I might
have mentioned this last week, but when we were down
in Wellington, I met a bloke who's who had lost
a staggering amount of waiting. I think at one point
he said he was over two hundred kilos. That's right,
he's down to about one hundred and twenty one hundred
and thirty. WHOA, Yes, the big brown slim down changing

(15:56):
people's lives. Mine not one of them. I said, I've
got back from Texas and just had an absolute shocking
It was one o way flat the week I got back,
which someone actually called so congratulations of that person. Then
we've got one oh six point seven in the week
since the Since then, the lowest weight I've seen on
the scale has been one oh seven flat. And it

(16:17):
was one oh eight point four this morning, which is
a worrying sign, very very worrying sign. I see where
we're going.

Speaker 5 (16:27):
So at one stage, one hundred and three point seven, Yeah,
that's your lowest and one that long ago either, So
we've got to gota run on me DAGs a little bit.
But one o three point seven that was yeah, what
was that? That was one two three seven weeks ago?

Speaker 1 (16:41):
That was that was with all the oils drained. That
was a driveway that that was carcasweight.

Speaker 5 (16:47):
I was on the hook for that one, well pre
pre Texas one oh five point seven.

Speaker 1 (16:51):
Yeah, yeah, and Texas was worth about two kilos. And
then I'm gonna be honest, it's been really hard to
lock in since I got back summer. You know, had
a doozy of a set. I mean, these are these
are terrible excuses. The misses out on Friday, I've got
a pizza then on and I showed up to the
pizza place and They're like, oh, it's gonna be like
fifteen minutes, and I was like, okay, So I just

(17:12):
walked out the shop and I turned to my right
and a new bottlestor is just open next to the
pizza shop. So that's a bear.

Speaker 5 (17:19):
Oh it doesn't suppose me. If the pizza beside the
McDonald's and then you whip the McDonald's. After watching what
you did in Texas where you worked your way around
those different food trucks, I've never seen anyone do that.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
Ruder.

Speaker 5 (17:31):
I've never seen anyone work their way around three different
food trucks.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
You keep saying this as if it was like because oh,
some fat piece of shit, it's because I've forgotten my order.

Speaker 5 (17:43):
I'm not saying it's because you're a fat piece of ship.
I've just never seen someone forget their order three times.

Speaker 1 (17:50):
Anyway, I wasn't blind drunk driving around the peninsula ordering
from every different place. Do you're just not care anymore?
I mean a lot the last couple of weeks. Yes,
that's it's happened. But now I get a lock get
a lock in a bit here. But what I thought
would be interesting is why don't we take the pulse
of the nation and find the average weight of our audience.

(18:12):
I like to see us just see who we're at.

Speaker 5 (18:14):
So I eight hundred head ache, So just people, just
call on wherever you are, eight hundred headache. It's eight
hundred forty eight seventy five. That's the number. And just

Speaker 1 (18:38):
Yeah, let's go feed and inches. But then let's also confusingly,
go kilos.

pounds and.

Speaker 1 (18:45):
No stone, I don't know the stones gets me.

Speaker 5 (18:49):
I think I might be thirteen stone, yeah, sex or so.

Speaker 7 (18:52):

We'll get another one around five eight eighty kigs, Adrian
seventy seven kigs, one hundred and seventy eight centimeters. Good
numbers there, and a great text here on three four
eight three. Can't we just shift the goal post and
if you're under one hundred and ten that's a win?

Speaker 5 (19:44):
Hey, totally Cam?

Speaker 1 (19:53):
Yeah, I think that's big boy. Any height there no
height eighty four point two kilos down from eighty seven
point five to ten weeks into working with a nutritionist.
That is something I think I need to do to
have someone else that you're actually you know that you've
paid a bit of money too.

Speaker 5 (20:07):
Yeah, So Lucas tidy fifty one cag's at five to seven.

Speaker 1 (20:13):
Keep those six coming through, three, four, eight through. We're
going to compile these and then find the average by
the end of the show.

Speaker 6 (20:18):
Hi, So, Jerry and Mania for the hod Ikey Breakfast.

Speaker 5 (20:23):
So I was reading about the industry body Offshore Energies UK.
So it's introducing a new rule Mania from November twenty
twenty six, and it requires offshore oil and gas workers
to weigh no more than one hundred and twenty four kgs. Yeah,
and that includes work clothes and boots, et cetera.

Speaker 1 (20:46):
Yeah, that's right. It's because if they need to airlift
you off that sucker, they can't have you know, ten
people weighing one hundred and fifty kigs each. Yeah, it's
a practical issue. So that got us thinking, well, what's
the average weight of alistener? Yeah, you know, because this
is that they're trying to bring down the average weight
of their Oh we're presumed that trying to bring it down.
I don't know how many people are above that on
these oil routes.

Speaker 5 (21:04):
Well, interestingly, two thousand and five hundred workers are currently
above that limit. So and apparently two thousand, five hundred
are at risk as well. So I mean five thousand
offshore workers could be affected by that role.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
Yeah, So we thought this morning, let's find out what
the average weight of our listeners are. And those texts
are coming through thick and fast. But one of the
texts that caught our eye was from Mike, and he
joins us on the line this morning. Good morning, Mike,
whereabouts in the country are you?

Speaker 8 (21:31):
Good morning, fellas calling from Graymouse.

Speaker 1 (21:34):
Now, you, in the last twelve months have lost quite
a lot of weight, haven't you? How much are we talking?

Speaker 8 (21:40):
Fifty six kilo?

Speaker 1 (21:42):
Wow?

Speaker 5 (21:43):
That's okay, okay, So set us up here, Mike. What
were you weighing in at before you started to lose weight?

Speaker 8 (21:51):
So I was one hundred and forty two Tilo. That
was November last year. But I'm at my heaviest. I
was one hundred and forty eight.

Speaker 5 (22:00):
One hundred and forty eight. And how tall are you?

Speaker 8 (22:02):
One hundred and seventy centimeters?

Speaker 1 (22:04):
What would there be about five to seven five.

Speaker 8 (22:06):
Eight, Yeah, roughly about that year, we'll call it five.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
And what what did you find was the most effective
for you?

Speaker 8 (22:15):
So I actually went to Mexico in November beginning of
November last year, and I had gastric sleeve siredri. So
that was probably the best thing I've ever done, to
be honest. So I you know, now I hit the
gym five mornings a week for an hour and a half.
I get to the gym about three am, wow, and
work out till about four point thirty quarter to five.

(22:38):
And then at night I generally go for a couple
of walks, take the dogs for a walk. They tend
to slow me down, so then I go for another
one by myself later on. I do about six k's
at night.

Speaker 5 (22:49):
Jeez, Mike, you are active. Why are you going to
the gym so early in the morning.

Speaker 8 (22:55):
You can just do your own thing, you know, without
anybody else bothering you. You can get to the machine.
I'm sort of a person of routine, so I like
to do the machines in particular order and stuff. So
that's just how I roll.

Speaker 5 (23:08):
So and how are you feeling after losing forty six kgs?

Speaker 4 (23:12):
Great?

Speaker 8 (23:13):
Absolutely fantastic. Yeah, it's been not only great for fitness
and all that sort of thing, but your mental health
as well really improves. So you know, it's been the
best decision I ever made. My only regrets is probably
not doing it ten years earlier.

Speaker 1 (23:28):
Yeah, right, mate, there's it's inspirational, to be honest, Mike.
I've been slacking off lately. I need to pick it up.

Speaker 8 (23:37):
I mean, I'd tried all sorts of diets and stuff
and just nothing seemed to sort of work for me.
So that was my sort of last resort and God
just really embraced it, I guess. So yeah, it's been great.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
Good on you, Mike, and happy to hear that things
are going well for you.

Speaker 5 (23:51):
And thanks for your call as well, because all right,
we put you.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
Down there, We've got you down as what fire.

Speaker 5 (24:00):
Okay, Well, I've just got to make sure I've got
so many names down.

Speaker 1 (24:03):

Speaker 5 (24:28):
Okay, We've got We've got Big John who's six five

who is obviously operating it is quite an operator at
ninety kg's at six one.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
Some text on three preaight there. This is not what
we're trying to do, but that a segment named Big Greg.
We're trying to do. We're trying to find the average.
But we're welcome all rigs.

Speaker 10 (24:53):
Gerry and Midnight, The Hold I Keep Breakfast, Jerry and
Midnight The Hold I Key Breakfast.

Speaker 5 (25:00):
So the Chasing the Fox Golf events coming up on
the twelfth of December. It's a sex whole televised tournament
on TV and Z one.

Speaker 1 (25:11):
Yeah, a lot of people saying some of the greatest
golfing commentary you'll hear as well, been really praised for
that lately.

Speaker 5 (25:18):
I heard about that last year. Very good commentary apparently,
although there's been a couple of comments about some of
the comments that were made last year, but we won't
get under that right now.

Speaker 1 (25:26):
A couple of complaints that we're a couple of complaints.

Speaker 5 (25:28):
Yeah, from the TV and Z. The tvn Z one audience.

Speaker 1 (25:31):
Just commentated normally, just money commentated normally.

Speaker 5 (25:35):
So it's a great event. It's on at Royal Auckland
and last year Team Media which was the team that
I was part of talking about mainly thanks to Rega
Mark Richardson, who was absolutely on fire.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
I was, yeah, it is incredibly unformed. You guys are
playing against the likes of Team Politicians, which had John Key,
David Seymour.

Speaker 5 (25:56):
And Max Ky Max Key. Max Key can whack.

Speaker 1 (25:59):
It, he goes all right, Yeah, David Seymore first person
any of us had ever seen walk up to the
tea box holding his skirlfriend's hand. I've never seen that.
I've never seen that on a golf course.

Speaker 5 (26:09):
But no, he doesn't had a great golf ball, David Seymour,
but to his credit, he gets out there every year
and gives it a crack. Good on him and then
also Team Olympians. Yeah, some very good golfers in that
team Team rugby or exceptional team cricket. There's some great
golfers in there as well.

Speaker 1 (26:24):
The leagues are really good too. The leagues are very good.
Leagues are good. A lot of downtime.

Speaker 5 (26:30):
So team media this year defending champions. I had a
caddy last year, Mash and can I just say I
thought that he was the worst part of Team Media,
and not in his attitude because he got along there
and he was having a good time. That was all fine,
But just for a caddy for me, for what I need,
and a caddy the main thing I need is a

(26:51):
person who will be there were your ballers with the bag.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
That's basically all a caddy does. The job description like,
you don't need Kendy who's gonna check the wind for
you and how fast the greens are running or anything
like that. That's pretty basic stuff. You just need the
club so you can hit the ball.

Speaker 5 (27:08):
It's sex whole Ambrose.

Speaker 1 (27:09):
Yeah, it's not even that far. No, Now what you
need I think, So all right, let's let's get this
out there in the open. You're looking for a new caddy.

Speaker 5 (27:17):
I'm looking for a caddy, and I suppose what I
first really need to do is fire my old cad.

Speaker 1 (27:21):
I was gonna say, I have you told him that
you that he's not going to be cadding for? No,
I haven't. All right, Well let's wrung him on ear
and tell him right now then.

Speaker 5 (27:27):
Okay we may as well. I need to get rid
of him before I can get a new one.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
What I don't want. What I don't want is for
him to find out from someone else.

Speaker 5 (27:36):
Hello, morning, Meshi.

Speaker 1 (27:41):
How are you, Gerd?

Speaker 5 (27:44):
You're live on the radio and eyes here as well.
Executive producer Ruder.

Speaker 11 (27:48):
Oh that's true.

Speaker 5 (27:50):
Yeah, just letting you know that you're fired from being
my caddy. I just thought that i'd let you know
before you heard it from someone else.

Speaker 6 (28:04):
What what?

Speaker 11 (28:05):
What?

Speaker 6 (28:05):
What?

Speaker 1 (28:06):
Just for?

Speaker 6 (28:06):
Sorry?

Speaker 12 (28:07):
Mate?

Speaker 1 (28:07):
Well? Remember you were my keddy last year chasing the fox.

Speaker 11 (28:10):
Oh you know that's all right mate, cheez No, I've
moved on to things.

Speaker 5 (28:14):
Okay, Wow, that's good. Good to hear you.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
See, just talking about.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
Big things coming, Big things coming?

Speaker 11 (28:24):
Is that the things coming?

Speaker 1 (28:26):
You know?

Speaker 9 (28:26):
Mark Richardson's got to.

Speaker 1 (28:32):
That's quite all right.

Speaker 3 (28:32):
Can I ask who's who's replacing me?

Speaker 1 (28:35):
Or is that not want well, this is this is
actually what makes it even worse. Meshes he we haven't
sorted that out all Jerry knows he wants it to
not be you.

Speaker 3 (28:47):
Now I'm starting to get a little bit upsetack. Maybe
something we can come along. You've been hanging out with
the bro that you say, you know, Keeddy with tiger
Woods and stuff like that. But maybe a big names
come along. But if you're replace me with no one,
I'm a little more well.

Speaker 1 (28:59):
This year, I'm just looking for someone who who brings
my bag to wear the ballers.

Speaker 5 (29:05):
That's the main thing that I'm looking for.

Speaker 3 (29:07):
Yeah, no, no, that's that's fack. Last last year I
was focused on a figs that weren't really related. And
then that's understandable. So okay, look, I hope you want
someone that can take your bag, your ball lives. Let's
just be honest. Will be made right and the sway
every shot and you know best luck fellers, no hard feelings,
you can tell them completely fine about it.

Speaker 5 (29:29):
Okay, cool, thanks you I need I need my bag
with me at all times. It's very very important for me.
So okay, thanks, So you're fired.

Speaker 3 (29:37):

that his wife has decided to nominate him. You know
what I mean. This is a this is a character
reference that we've got here.

Speaker 5 (35:35):
Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 1 (35:36):
Yeah, yeah, Okay, Adrian, or she's trying to get him
out of the house.

Speaker 5 (35:40):
Let's go to Adrian morning, Adrian, how are you?

Speaker 11 (35:44):
You're good?

Speaker 5 (35:45):
Adrian? So what are your physical attributes?

Speaker 2 (35:51):
Seventy seven kilos one s nine?

Speaker 5 (35:54):
Okay, that's good. What about your highest qualification Adrian.

Speaker 2 (36:00):
Ice Quai scation would be school seat and classified brother
class five.

Speaker 1 (36:04):
What's driver driver?

Speaker 8 (36:06):
Driver?

Speaker 1 (36:07):
Great? Excellent. Jerry's having trouble with his driving at the moment.
I have been for some time.

Speaker 2 (36:13):
And your paper as well.

Speaker 5 (36:16):
Your special talent, Adrian.

Speaker 1 (36:19):
Growing greens, growing greens?

Speaker 2 (36:24):
I don't.

Speaker 5 (36:29):
I don't know that's going to help me or going
to have to meet him. Be honest, Aben, my experience
doesn't work very well on the golf course.

Speaker 10 (36:37):
Jerry and Mania the hold Iarchy Breakfast. Jerry and Mania
the hold Ikey Breakfast.

Speaker 5 (36:45):
So there's a new rule coming in in twenty twenty
six over in the UK for offshore oil and gas
workers to have to be under one hundred and twenty
four kgs.

Speaker 1 (36:54):
It's a wait limit. Initially, I was outraged. And that's
including the gear as well, so all of the clothing
and the toolbolt in, any of the tools, hard hats,
all that kind of stuff, boots with the fur and
I but it's actually a health and safety thing because
you're working on an off shore oil reg the only
way to get you off that is on a helicopter.
If you're weigh two hundred kilos, that's one least person

(37:16):
that can get on the chopper.

Speaker 5 (37:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (37:17):
Yeah, So it makes sense.

Speaker 5 (37:18):
It actually a fixed five thousand people, not because five
thousand people are over one hundred and twenty four kgs.
Two and a half thousand people they estimate are over
one hundred and twenty four kgs. And I guess when
you go to work on an oil rag, chances are
you will put on weight because we'rey exercising.

Speaker 1 (37:35):
Yeah, two weeks on, two weeks off.

Speaker 5 (37:38):
So I imagine it's a situation where you probably would
put on weight, but it's actually five thousand people because
there's two thousand and five hundred people who are over
at plus two hundred, two thousand, five hundred people who
are kind of around about it.

Speaker 1 (37:48):
Yeah, and so we wanted to know on three four
eight three, how much do you way? We want to
try and find the average of our listenership. I think
one of the things that happens when you ask people
for information like this is you get the information from
the extremes because if you're in the middle, you just
probably won't. But if you're a heavier person or if
you're a lighter person, you're more likely to text. So

(38:09):
we've got a lot of those we do. For example,
Graham one hundred and ninety four centimeters one hundred and
forty five kg's big, Greg bag.

Speaker 5 (38:16):
Greg Graham one ninety four centimeters, so that's around about
six four yeah, three kg four taller.

Speaker 1 (38:23):
Tough to get off an oil rope, Graham. Yeah, And
that's always been the knock on Graham. I'm sorry, Graham,
but it has been. It's what they say about you
couldn't get an oil rock.

Speaker 5 (38:31):
Answer is ninety five kg is hungry.

Speaker 1 (38:34):
Yeah, but two weeks on an oil rope you'll be
doing well to get home off as well. One hundred
and eighty three centimeters one hundred and ten kgs. I'm
a female. One hundred and sixty five centimeters fifty two kicks. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (38:45):
Wayne has text in and he is sex foot one
ninety four kgs.

Speaker 1 (38:51):
Melanie is texted in one sixty five fifty five kg
female winki face. What does that mean? I'm not going
to read too far into it. Morning, gentse hundred and
eighty three centimeters one ten point three this morning, love
your work. I will say. One hundred and eighty three
is the most common measurement we've had come through for height, Yes,
which is six foot just over sex just have a
six foot That's why I think because I was once

(39:12):
measured at one hundred and eighty two centimeters, which is
six foot, and I refuse to be measured again.

Speaker 5 (39:18):
Yeah, fair enough to rude. What's your heightened cinameters.

Speaker 7 (39:21):
One eighty four sometimes one eighty three.

Speaker 1 (39:24):
Yeah, but.

Speaker 5 (39:26):
So just about six foot one, yeah.

Speaker 7 (39:29):
And running currently a HUNDI got down to ninety six
at the end of last year.

Speaker 1 (39:32):
I missed those. Oh you get there. You need to
get that bloody blender going again.

Speaker 5 (39:36):
One eighty eight and one o two says Jeff.

Speaker 1 (39:40):
Jeff, what about one eighty nine centimeters two kg's bull bag? Blar?
Hold on two kg of bull bag?

Speaker 5 (39:48):
So is that is that from bull bag Blear? Or
is or does Blear have a cu kg bullbag? That's
a big bull bag.

Speaker 1 (39:55):
These are the issues. But look, it's all data points,
isn't it. In our in our study, in our survey
this morning, we'll put them all on. Jerry's going to
crunch the numbers here. He's written them all down, old
school analogue. I don't know how he's going to go.

Speaker 5 (40:05):
Eding's all last Nay. Hello, I'm one hundred and sixty
eight centimeters is tixter? How heavy are you?

Speaker 1 (40:10):
Though?

Speaker 5 (40:11):
That's what I need to know?

Hello?

Speaker 5 (40:12):
One seventy seven, seventy five A one eighty four to
seventy four, five eleven and seven eighths six eighty cage's
on the doll. That's Toby Pepperoni?

Speaker 1 (40:25):
Is that all the corrected from Tony Pepperoni or are
you just Toby Pepperoni?

Speaker 4 (40:31):
Jerry?

Speaker 5 (40:31):
In the ninth the Hourarchy Breakfast Time for the Hierarchy

Someone's just texted in without knowing what the questions are. Here.
They've texted their guesses for the answers. Wow, my god,
they went close. We'll read them out afterwards, Tim, to
give you a fear shake of the source bottle or
whatever that Australian politicians said that time.

Speaker 4 (41:42):
I have no idea what the topic couple living it's
going to be.

Speaker 5 (41:45):
No, it's a tricky one. Are you gonna have forty
five seconds? Though? Tom, We're gonna ask you five questions.
It's just gonna get three correct. If you're going to
pass past quickly and if we start it up, you win.
I good, let's get into it. Tur who wore the

joon Olomu related lame claim to fame as well.

Speaker 4 (50:57):
Yeah, she's pretty lame. Look, when I was working for
a sports for a company a lot of sports back
in the nineties, we actually sponsored Joonah Lomis straight out
of high school and Phil Kingsley Jones come into our factory,
and you know, he was amazing, and Jonah was just
an absolute freak. I was about the same size as him,

(51:20):
and Phil thought it would be a good idea to
maybe get a bit of a photo of somebody running
at Jonah and sort of tackling him around the waist.
So I'd played, you know, football, soccer my whole life,
so tackling somebody around the waist of my arms was
not really all that common to me. So he's run
at me, I've sort of grabbed around his buttecks and

(51:43):
just sort of gave him a nice little hug. And
Phil said that probably some of the best photography he's
ever done.

Speaker 1 (51:52):
I thought, for a moment, how you were going to
go and studs up?

Speaker 4 (51:57):
I did not, I mean even I think what was
he like seventeen eighteen? He was an absolute bolting treat.
He was, Yeah, I mean lovely, lovely, lovely guys, but yeah,
it was. It was one of the funniest things I
think I've ever done.

Speaker 5 (52:10):
Yeah, thank you for your cork. Yeah, a friend of mine,
one of his, it's not even that lame claims to
famous that he tackled Joan Olomo in secondary school rugby man,

Jerry and Midnight The hold Ikey Breakfast Jerry and Midnight
The hold Ikey Breakfast.

Speaker 1 (52:57):
Great text through on three four eight three off the
back of lame claims to fame. If you missed that,
go back and listen to it on the podcast. I
think this text sums it up every week. I think
surely we as a listenership are out of lame claims
and each week is better than the last. Well done
alter it Ei. Yeah, well, the.

Speaker 5 (53:11):
Interesting thing is we didn't get to probably what are
you reckons sixty percent?

Speaker 1 (53:15):
Even today? I think there's so many that come through.
And so if you did send one through and we
didn't get to it, I reckon even now, while it's
fresh in your mind, copy and paste that thing somewhere
and send it to us again next Tuesday, because we
want to get to all of these. There's just far
too many.

Speaker 5 (53:28):
Coming up after the eight point thirty Sport Headlines is
Shody black Cap Leg Spinner joins us on the show
ahead of the final t twenty against the West Indies
and Dunedin on Thursday.

Speaker 1 (53:38):
I want to know what they do during a rain delay,
Like what are the players do?

Speaker 5 (53:42):
They must be so boring a lot of cards, I imagine.

Speaker 1 (53:45):
Because they're not allowed their phones no, because of match
fixing issues, So they're just going to sit there like
it's the nineties, you know, and read the back of
the week books box or something.

Speaker 5 (53:54):
And also before nine o'clock, we need to find out
the average weight of our listenership.

I've got a lot of number crunching three four eight
three cend us in your weight, and we're going to
try and find the average way the herd A listener.

Speaker 6 (54:09):
Jerry and Midnight the Hdiarchy Breakfast.

Speaker 5 (54:12):
We've been looking this morning for the average weight of
our audience. This is on the back of some oil
rigs in the UK suggesting that you're going to have
to be under one hundred and twenty four kgs to
work on oil REGs. There's affecting five thousand people in
the UK, mainly because if something happens on the oil rig,
it's for safety reasons, because you just can't get people off.

going to add that and Jerry's just giving me the
notebook that he's written all these down on. So you
want me to read these to you and you're going
to find the average well, because otherwise I've it's going

(54:52):
to take forever, but it was what you can do.

Speaker 1 (59:25):
Who saw that coming? A couple of bit of feedback
on this This is terrible radio FYI, And do we
really have to sit through this? Admin?

Speaker 6 (59:31):
The answer is yes, Jerry and Mini the hold Ikey breakfast.

Speaker 5 (59:36):
So New Zealand our two one up and their T
twenty series against the West and ease. Yesterday's game at
Sexton Oval and Nelson was rained out and joining us
on the phone now each sod eat New Zealand leg spinakta.

Speaker 1 (59:50):
How are you?

Speaker 9 (59:52):
God?

Speaker 1 (59:53):
How did you go yesterday during that rained out T twenty?

Speaker 5 (59:56):
That's kind of annoying. What were you guys up to?

Speaker 9 (59:58):
It was a little bit on and off. You know,
don't often expect the rain and Nelson, but we try
to keep ourselves occupied. But now it's sort of fested
around too long. We're off off pretty quickly.

Speaker 1 (01:00:09):
Yeah. I always wonder what you guys do in a
rain delay because you're not allowed your phones? Are you?

Speaker 4 (01:00:13):
So?

Speaker 1 (01:00:13):
What do you guys do?

Speaker 9 (01:00:15):
I often carry a chessboard, but I didn't have my
chessboard unfortunately, and not not a lot of the team
at the moment like chess. So I just sat around
a few yarns about some of the bird species sitting
around the oval. But you're not too much Other than that.

Speaker 5 (01:00:29):
I thought you were kind of nerdyish, but I didn't
know you were quite that nerdy to be honest chessboard.

Speaker 9 (01:00:35):
Really Yeah, I'm down with chessay, so I'm king for
a game.

Speaker 1 (01:00:39):
If you're a king, I'm.

Speaker 5 (01:00:41):
I can play chess, but I'm absolutely rubbish at it.

Speaker 1 (01:00:44):
Well, we were recently on a long haul flight and
we found the chess board on the you know the
games on the back of the seat, and we put
it onto moderate difficulty and spend about eight hours of
the flight trying to beat it and we couldn't.

Speaker 11 (01:00:55):
So it's pretty tough.

Speaker 9 (01:00:56):
Chess dot com is a good one if you ever
fist through around the airports and stuff. So I didn't
pay me to say that.

Speaker 5 (01:01:02):
Would you say that the art of legs bin bowling
is a little bit like a game of cheers.

Speaker 9 (01:01:08):
Each Well, you know, there's a there's a legsman at
the place for India, Zendo Chahala's like a grand master
at chess, and they always says that, you know, it
really helps them with this strategizing and things like that.
There's a really strategy sort of game. And then I
think leg's been especially like you know, these all variations
and stuff. You'd argue that there's a bit of strategy
involved too. So maybe there's a couple of called call similarities,

(01:01:30):
but definitely a few differences This.

Speaker 1 (01:01:32):
West Indian team that this series, I think as fans
it's been way more competitive than we thought it was
going to be. It's been really exciting to watch. Why
they wash out yesterday I was a bit gutting. H
you go down to Dunna's next. I don't know if
you've been talking to the fellows off the field or
even on the field. Are they terrified of having to
go down and certainly arctic temperatures of Nina.

Speaker 9 (01:01:52):
Yeah, no, I just you know it's generally a lot
colder there and I saw even yesterday at Nelson, I
was a bit of a colder day and you expected
Nelson sort of boy still has it and he's on
and somewhere. So that's going to be a bit of
a rude awakening down there, and you know, if the
souther League gets up, it's going to be pretty narly.
But now I think the series in a good spot
for a good.

Speaker 5 (01:02:09):
Game getting There's some big units in the West Indian
team who look like they can hit the ball quite
a long way. When your bowling league span, would you
rather bowl to a big unit who's trying to smash
you for sex, or a smaller unit who's trying to
noodle you around the park for ones and twos.

Speaker 9 (01:02:28):
Oh, definitely noodle down the park for one of the two.
I think the thing is these days that you know,
no matter what the size of the player, like a
lot of the guys are playing shots all around the park.
But now you can't you know, you can definitely, definitely
can't say that it's not intimidating. Sometimes when you're at
the top of your mark and you're adjacent Holderstand six
or eight and you know Robin Power, these guys hit
the ball, you know, on these small boundaries that hit

(01:02:49):
the most thirty forty meters over and I was thinking,
like we get to Duneeda, the bat is pretty small.
I was like, how far can they hit it over
that green shed down there.

Speaker 5 (01:02:55):
Yeah, it's kind of It's tough being a spin bowler
in New Zealand a lot of ways.

Speaker 1 (01:02:59):
Firstly, I think is it the hardest place to bowl
spin in the world.

Speaker 5 (01:03:02):
Firstly, the pictures don't really turn and they don't really bounce,
and then also the bloody boundaries are small.

Speaker 9 (01:03:09):
Yeah, look, you know you could argue it a lot,
but yeah, definitely. I think it's one of the more
challenging places to boll spin in the world, I think,
and sort of I think it sort of makes Mitchell
sat In one of the most firsatile spin bowls in
the world open because he's so proficient in these conditions
and go overseason and be dominant as we gets a
spin as well. So it's always quite reflective when you
know overseas spinners do come over here and you know

(01:03:31):
the skill has to be slightly different. I have to
deceive them in the air or bowl like defensive balls
outside off or into the leg, and so it's a
really different skill set and almost quite a different gap
being a spin bowler here than what it is in
overseas conditions that might offer some sideways he.

Speaker 5 (01:03:44):
Shady Before you go, We've been looking for the average
height and weight of our listenership this morning, so it'd
be quite good if we can just add you into
the stats as well. Please, what's your height?

Speaker 9 (01:03:57):
I am one hundred and ninety two centimeters with Doc
Martin's on.

Speaker 1 (01:04:02):
Okay, what are we saying? Six four six three?

Speaker 9 (01:04:05):
I am about I'm at sixty three with the boots
on six tie and a half.

Speaker 5 (01:04:09):
Yeah, I reckon, that's about the same as me ish
and your weight please.
