Speaker 1 (00:09):
You're listening to a podcast from news Talk said, be
follow this and our wide range of podcasts now on iHeartRadio.
Used Talk said, be you talk.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Hello, my beautiful beanies, and welcome to the bean for Wednesday.
First with yesterday's news. I am bleen Hart, and we
are looking.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
Back at Tuesday. We love the rail. We're spending more
money on rail.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Winston loves the rail anyway. Matt and Tyler talk full
time pork. If like me, you don't really know what
that is, that'll be worth a listen. And then Marcus
holds his breath for a minute. I don't know it's
going to be good radio or not. It's kind of
podcast roulette. End again with Marcus. So yeah, that goes
(01:01):
at the end, but at the beginning. Yes, So all
on in parliament yesterday until it wasn't and it was postponed.
And that's a bit of an anti climax, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
Voting is the essence of democracy, where the elected express
the views of the electors us. It's Parliament's holy communion
and nobody has yet said sorry. That does not mean
the punishment which a slim majority of government members voted
for is not overly harsh. The clerk reckons it is
Brownly clearly reckons it is. The opposition reckons it is
(01:33):
Does the punishment really fit the crime? That's the question?
Or have standards slipped so badly? The House is such
a hot mess that a precedent and a message needs
to be sent to our parliamentarians. As I said, I
think on the whole the public largely doesn't really care
about this stuff. The question today is how long will
(01:55):
national let this debate drag on with amendments and filibustering
before a compromise is reached. Winston and Seymour, they're your
hardline is of course to party Mari Green means your
opposing hardliners, of course. But for the bigger parties, the
risk is if you play politics over policy for too long,
(02:17):
you look childish. The only winners from today's side show
will be the minnots, and of course, well the losers,
I should say with the minnos will be the winners.
The losers really will be the bigger parties and the
rest of us.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
And then, like I say, there weren't really any winners
or losers because it all got.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Postponed news talk see it bean so that's a.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Bit frustrating when you're expecting massive news to happen and
it doesn't really happen.
Speaker 5 (02:46):
Was Heather frustrated by that?
Speaker 6 (02:47):
Let me tell you something, Nuance gets lost in a
debate like this that has this many twists and turns,
and as Debbie says, super chess is being played. Ultimately,
Labor is simply going to look like they are on
the side of the Marti Party, and being on the
side of the Marti Party right now means being on
the side of bad behavior, because this isn't just about
the hukka, is it. This is about all the behaviors.
(03:10):
This is about debbing Yado. We're packer pulling the gun
fingers at David Seymour in the House. That's completely unacceptable.
It's about the Mardi Party completely ignoring the Privileges Committee
and as as people have said, behaving like it doesn't
have any say of that. Everybody else has to abide
by what the Privileges Committee says, but not the Marti Party.
They don't have to turn up, they don't have to
abide by the rules, not to publish the recommendations. They
(03:32):
just you know, allure on to themselves. That's what the
Labor Party is siding with, and Labour Party needs to
understand that a punishment of twenty one days, yes, does
look harsh, but it is not just about the huka.
It's also quite clearly meant as a deterrent to a
party that is indicated it will keep breaking the rules. Now,
I think what's going on here is that Labor is
so fixated or making life hard for the government that
(03:52):
it's failing to see the big picture. And the big
picture is that voters do not like bad behavior in parliament.
Not only is it distasteful and disappointing, but we mainly
don't like that MP's are wasting their precious time dealing
with this kind of nonsense and misbehaving rather than actually
running the government because we're paying their wages. Now, I
would not be surprised if the majority of voters want
(04:13):
to see standards restored and punishment handed down. And I
would bet a lot of money that the very voters
that Labour needs to target, which is middle New Zealand,
absolutely want to see punishment handed down in this because remember,
most voters do not like the Maori Party. They pull
at about four percent ninety six percent of voters don't
vote for them, and right now, by siding with them,
(04:33):
Labor is reminding us what a Labor Greens and Maori
Party government would look like and how it would behave
and I think to a lot of people that would
be very unappealing.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
Certainly a lot of news Toks zeb people.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Once again, I wonder if there's a.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
A sort of a gap in the demographics where.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
The people who think of themselves as being more to
the left when it comes to voting don't necessarily pay
a lot of attention to all this, harry On, They're
not sitting there watching Parliament afternoon.
Speaker 5 (05:09):
You know what I mean? You talk side right, So.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Christ Bishops announced they've tipped out the couch cushions and
they've found a bit of small change to hump up
rail and Winston's delight of a cause because he's the
Minister of Trains or something.
Speaker 5 (05:30):
We need this is it going to work?
Speaker 7 (05:31):
But we have been so poorly served by the money
that we've invested as taxpayers. We've earned the money, we
have asked our bureaucrats and our governments to invest it
wisely on our behalf. Most of us, I think support
some form of rail, but I would really like to
(05:55):
see more accountability for howard is spent and for delivery?
Can we Rail says yep, you'll get that we're getting
ahead of ourselves by twenty twenty six, We'll be sweet.
Do you believe that? Winston Peters says, we have a
legacy for rail freight? Do we have a future when
(06:20):
it comes to rail freight? I'd really like to hear
from those in the know who do the heavy lifting
for this country metaphorically and literally. Can we have more
than the thirteen percent of national freight in a quarter
of New Zealand's experts on rail? And when it comes
(06:41):
to commuters, do.
Speaker 5 (06:44):
You have faith.
Speaker 7 (06:47):
That this will be a brilliant, convenient, timely, fantastic way
to travel in the near future?
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Well, only if I end up with a station within
ten minutes walk in my house.
Speaker 5 (07:02):
Guess what that ain't happening? Does I live in Silverdale?
Speaker 2 (07:06):
While it's part of the super city, it's separated from
the main bit of the city by a harbor, and
there ain't no rail on the other side of their harbor?
Speaker 5 (07:20):
Is there?
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Do you either train peers of them or you're not?
And I think you can figure out which side I'm on.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
What the hell is full time pork?
Speaker 5 (07:30):
Who's out?
Speaker 2 (07:31):
It's a bloke who goes around painting graffiti on things.
Speaker 5 (07:36):
So you know about this pork documentary?
Speaker 8 (07:39):
Yeah mate, Yeah, full time pork that's what it's called
if you look it up on YouTube. Documentary.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
So not Korean pork belly reps.
Speaker 8 (07:49):
Korean barbecue pork belly.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
You're wrong, then a full time and you've seen it,
have you?
Speaker 8 (07:56):
I have seen it, and I know someone associated with
producing it. It's actually a really well produced clip, so
it's worth a watch.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (08:06):
I don't agree with graffiti on private property. I agree,
I agree with mural artwork. But yeah, yeah, if you
haven't watched, it's worth the watch. I've seen his tags
all around Auckland. I drive around Auckland on stuff every day.
Speaker 5 (08:21):
Yep.
Speaker 8 (08:22):
For a living. What he has done has cost us
as tech is ridiculous amount of money just so he
can be noticed by his friends in colleagues. Yeah, it's
it's pretty weird.
Speaker 9 (08:35):
I've just had a wee look at an article about
this documentary. It looks like a good watch. Cal but
I love a week quote by Pork when he was asked,
So why why why?
Speaker 5 (08:45):
He said?
Speaker 9 (08:46):
When asked why he does this? Why hang off buildings?
Risking my life, risking my freedom, he responded, someone's got
to do it, bro, I don't know that's a great reason.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
He ain't no being see saying ain't in this podcast,
So I don't know what that's about.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
But but he ain't.
Speaker 5 (09:04):
I've never noticed the tagging thing.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
It's a bit like dogs on posts and mailboxes, isn't it,
instead of marking their territory? Just another symptom of small
penis syndroma.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
I suppose news talks it right.
Speaker 5 (09:21):
Here's the moment you've been waiting for?
Speaker 2 (09:23):
What?
Speaker 5 (09:23):
How long can Marcus hold his breath for? And is
this compelling?
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Radio?
Speaker 10 (09:27):
Marcus get from Dave my usual talent. I can write
with both hands and I hold my breath underwater for
three minutes forty five seconds. That's a good time, isn't it?
Wonder how long I could hold my breath for these days?
Speaker 5 (09:49):
I could do a minute. That would be it. She
might struggle for it.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
What's normal for holding your breath?
Speaker 5 (09:59):
Should I do it?
Speaker 3 (09:59):
In our tap to see?
Speaker 5 (10:00):
Say?
Speaker 10 (10:00):
No, I'm still alive? Righte?
Speaker 5 (10:08):
Two? Three?
Speaker 7 (10:10):
Well?
Speaker 5 (10:10):
Do do this? All together. See how we go? How
long you hold your breath for? On your Max?
Speaker 3 (10:15):
I can't say, I'll say, go with it and hail
on your Max. Gets it on.
Speaker 10 (10:20):
Your Max, gets it go.
Speaker 5 (10:27):
H m m h m hm.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
Oh it was hard to get to a minute, wasn't it.
Speaker 10 (11:28):
Oh y, it's time I get to stop watch on Chi.
Speaker 5 (11:31):
I was looking at the club. That was more.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
I thought it would pertho is gonna perspire.
Speaker 10 (11:36):
There'd be an ignominious, ignominious ending idiot dies on radio
trying to hold breath. I mean that, honestly, that would
go around the work that go viral, wouldn't it.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Well, it's certainly gone a star as this podcast anyway,
and I think we all know that this podcast is
pretty viral. Why that's would I have made three two
hundred and eighty episodes of it sort of not humble
brag there.
Speaker 5 (12:03):
Oh yeah, so I mean that and that was a minute.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
I don't know if you were sitting there with your
stop watch, but I yeah, I mean we're assuming that
he was actually holding his breath for the whole time there,
And it wasn't just better of the mind. I mean,
Max a fine upstanding citizen I'm sure he wouldn't.
Speaker 5 (12:21):
Ride about that.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
I think I think people should be writing it and
encouraging people to hold their breath for three minutes underwater.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
I think it went badly for a couple of blokes
a few months ago.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
We start try and do that, not without the training anyway,
I am a Glen Hart. I will just keep breathing
normally and as a result of that, hopefully I'll be
back with you again tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (12:46):
Do then use talking talking?

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today.
