Speaker 1 (00:09):
You're listening to a podcast from News Talk ZEDB. Follow
this and our wide range of podcasts now on iHeartRadio, Rewrap.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Okay there and welcome to the Rewrap Tuesday. All the best,
but from the Mike Husking Breakfast on News Talk ZEDB.
In a sillier package, I'm Glen Hearten today. What gen
Z thinks of communal eating? I know that's been on
your mind, speaking of eating things, eating MOLDI lunctures at school?
How did this get to be a story? We've got
(00:46):
more if one explained, and we'll talk about the You
know how important your team is and whatever it is
you're doing, and well, I try and get to the
bottom of that old question. Is a groin or groins?
But before any of that, MMP. It's rubbish, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
It's one of the vagaries of mm he most likely
is going to play out again next year. This is
the overhang. The Labour Party, at their conference over the weekend,
launched a full out pitch for a reclaim of all
seven seats they currently hold one. The rest belong to
the various factions of the Maori Party, which might be
why attacker to Ferris suggested that Labour should be smart
and come to some sort of arrangement, the arrangement being
(01:27):
the Maory Party or factions or splintered aspects of it
take the seats, get the overhang and therefore make it
mathematically harder for the government to keep on being the government.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Now.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Maybe Pharas said that because he's afraid he can't win
his seat as an independent nowadays. But think about it
from Labour's point of view, whether they win those seats
or not didn't change their overall haul. If you get
thirty percent of the vote, they get thirty percent of
the seats. When the Marory seat, they merely get subtracted
from the list delocation, whereas the Maori Party aren't going
to get the size of vote to justify their seats,
hence the overhang. Personally, if I was running the world,
(01:59):
the overhang would be banned. I mean, how winning an
electric gets you a discount on the threshold. I've got
no idea, but that's why we have one hundred and
twenty three MP's. So do the math split one twenty
tie where you need sixty two as opposed to the
sixty one normally? Could the one be the difference in
a tight race, you bet it could. Also, deals are
not new to MMP, so it's not like Labor look desperate.
In fact, given their performance in the Auckland by election
(02:21):
the other day, they may save themselves some embarrassment. But equally,
is the Murray Party in any sort of shape to
believe they can stand any chance when judgment Day arrives
about this time next year? Deal or no deal is
the question. Labour seems to have answered it. But if
they win and wipe out or damage a coalition partner,
who then is the real winner?
Speaker 2 (02:40):
It's really hard to believe, is in it that we've
had MMP for so long now that we're still were
getting to grips of its permutations and ramifications, and people
like me can just say I never voted for it.
It's a rewrap, right, a rare appearance from the BEZ
in the podcast today because well it was a bad
(03:02):
communal eating and I had a sneaking suspicion Mike wouldn't
be into it.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Bully is It's the fizz with business fiber take your
business productivity to the next level.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Of course, if you can't afford a house, what you
do as you go out eating a lot, don't you
with the avocado on toast. Communal dining is back and
gen Z is loving communal dining. Gen Z well, I
mean gen Z can be thirteen year olds, so they're
not going out communally dining and they see with mum
and dad eating McDonald's, so that's but I mean, yeah,
(03:34):
you're talking to the twenty somethings anyway. The ones behind
of the survey are Rezi, which is an online restaurant
reservation company. They've looked at dining trends this year and
in the next. Ninety percent of gen zetters want to
do communal dining. They say they want the interaction, they
see it is a great way to meet new people.
(03:54):
They actually and of those gen Zitters who do the
communal dining, half of them so they've had interesting conversations.
One and three say they've made a new friend one
and seven. One and three is not really I mean
that's a two out of three strike rate, isn't it?
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Like?
Speaker 2 (04:08):
How are you?
Speaker 3 (04:09):
I'm good? How are you good? What are you having?
On the n chase?
Speaker 2 (04:16):
This is this is your worst nightmare?
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Isn't that worse than my worst night?
Speaker 2 (04:19):
You can't you can't even imagine it.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
No one in seven say they met a romantic partner,
So six out of seven times you strike out, and
you just look like a leech alone. How are you?
Sixty percent of baby boomers so they enjoy communal dining,
it's crap. Okay, save you save your money. No one
(04:44):
believes it.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
I do like when you go out and and you
just order a bunch of stuff and everybody shares.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
Yeah, that that's that's not communal dining. You're not communal
people you went with that, you know, you're not communally
sharing food with a person you're trying to pack up
you go.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
I guess you want to be sure that the kind
of person who washes their hands after they go the
check out.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Have you seen my guacamoli? Would you like that? No
one does.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Yeah. The cool thing about having that, you know, sharing
little bits of everything together as you get to try
all the different things. That's great. There are occasionally people
who have too much of one thing, and then you
don't get to have any of that, and then you
feel obliged to eat up all of the other thing
that they didn't want. That's always that they're frustrating rewrapan. Obviously,
(05:31):
none of that stuff would have mold on it because
it's not a school lunch.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
Mike, I believe that those school sandwiches were put there
where they went sandwiches were they? I don't know what
it was. They were so moldy and fuzzy you couldn't
tell what they were, but they certainly weren't sandwiches anyway.
They were put there to sabotage of the government's school
lunch pans. That's why I asked about askedey more about
it this morning. I mean that frequent flyer is a
clever line of Seymour's. But there are the same unionists
(05:54):
slash principals who turn up in the media all the
time their rent a quote, and they permanently got problems.
They hate the government, they hate school lunches, and the
irony of the school lunch, as I pointed out to David,
was at the beginning of the cool lunch program. Remember
the kids wouldn't eat it fresh meals, They just ah no,
they don't like those. So on once. So one story
(06:16):
when you ring up rent a quote is the kids
are starving and they can't learn on an empty stomach.
Fair enough, so then the food arrives fresh and they go, oh,
they don't like that story number two, And then they
apparently like the lunches so much that when they turn
up rotten and fuzzy and moldy, they eat them.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
What do we call them when people complain about as
or vexatious litigators?
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Is that what they It's a good point.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Yeah, so that happens the same couple of people, just
constantly making complaints all the time, and they get labeled
as a vexatious litigator and summarily ignored from that point.
The rewrap, right time for an F one update. We
seem to do a lot of these these days, and
thanks to my study I've been doing at home, I
(07:04):
feel like i'm qualified to comment.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
If you missed it in Sport the Telegraph, as in
the not the British one, but the Dutch one, which
is directly linked. I've never quite worked out how, but
Jospher Stappan, who is Max's dad, seems to have a
fairly tight link in a lot of red bull ish
news comes out of that particular newspaper word this morning.
If you've missed it, is that what we thought was
going to happen has happened a high level meeting at
(07:29):
Red Bull. Austria makes a lot more decisions these days.
It was once upon a time, pre the guy Massachuh
died recently that basically Helmet Marco was your man along
with Christian Horner. Christian's gone Helmet Marco's power has been
taken away from him to a degree. Austria and our
sees the F one team is more of part of
the wider Red Bull Sports Drink family. Therefore they want
(07:52):
to be more involved in it. Also, they've got to
get ahead of meeting hadg'es up next to a Stappen,
So it'll be interesting to see what sort of how
they come up with next year given the new regulation.
So Haja gets the promotion, Lawson stays, linn Blad gets
promoted Sonoda. No one seems to know what happens because
the story this morning is there is a suggestion he's
going to hand his car over this coming weekend for
(08:15):
FP one to Lindblad to get him behind the wheel.
So you can imagine how he feels about that, But
that is it made. The suggestion is he may well
stay as a reserve driver. So he gets demoted from
Red Bull down through racing balls to become the reserve driver.
So I don't know how he feels about that.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
All it's a complicated business, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
Not overly complicated? I feel like I got sacked.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
I watched I finally got around to watching that If One.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
Movie Yesterday isn't any good, And I feel.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
Like I understand a lot more about F one than
I ever did before. I had no idea that you
could just miss out all those qualifying rounds and sprint
raisers and things and just turn up on the day
of the race to decide that you were racing.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
That that was one of the There was a couple
of aspects for the for the train spotter that simply
doesn't it get they change? Do they change a car
at one point or do something like that. There's a
whole bunch of rules that are broken. In other words,
it's complete fiction. But they say they say a couple
of things. They say the CGI the racing stuff is
very good, is it well, almost too good?
Speaker 2 (09:16):
And that because they're in Formula one cars with big
crash helmets on, it's not like watching Days of Thunder
when you can sort of see what they're doing and
yelling things and stuff. You can barely make out which
drivers which because their faces are all squished into.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Would you recommend it as a movie.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
If you've got a big surround sound system, put it
on and turn it up loud. It's fun to hear.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Okay, So it's sort of like a movie for the blind.
Is that what you're saying? What are you saying?
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Maybe? Yeah, I really wanted the movie to be good,
and I'd heard that it was good, and it's just
and every time I thought, oh, this is getting quite good,
then there'd be some really dumb dialogue or something completely
unbelievable would happen, and it's just like you've sort of
I kept it keeps sort of taking me out of
the movie, if you know what I mean. And I'm
(10:04):
ad stay in the movie kind of a guy.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
It's the rewrap.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
And I'm not blaming you know, Brad Pet or Albert
Junior or have a bad I think they tried. I mean,
I particularly like the way Brad pet looked like he
was in pain all the time. I could really identify
with that. But sometimes I just let down by the
(10:29):
rest of the team.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Aren't you Mike what the heck is Lewis Hamilton going
to do next year? It's been such a rubbish year
for him, Paul, He's going to be fine because what
the rubbish part of the year for him has not
been him. He's just as good as he ever was.
He's just one of those drivers who's trapped in unfortunate circumstances.
Some way. I feel the same way some mornings I
look through the double glazing and I think to myself,
(10:51):
Am I on the right team here? That's that's that's
I feel.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Bad about that.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
Yeah, exactly so.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
I mean, imagine if you weren't handicapped by by some
mentionine what I could have been, you'd be in a
constant flow state. You'd be soaring. We're like anchors around you.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
True morning, Mike, Heather said last night, you drink your
own pea. She did not. Did she honestly say that.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
I didn't think you find that out.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
She said, you drink your own pea as a health
benefit as well as ice. Barts plea, confirm only with
soda water. You just effer vescence.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
The plungeboard doesn't actually have that ice in it, oh
does it? No, it's just cold as ice.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
It's cold as ice. It's three or four degrees.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Yeah. I think without us the husk would be it'd
be something rewrap. So test cricket time again as of
today with it permitting, and that means that we're spending
a lot of time talking about groin. Probably is it
groin's plural or singular?
Speaker 3 (11:53):
What's an insubordinate groin? That was my other thing for
the morning. So in our sports news this morning, somebody
said they've got an insubordinate groin. I only thought you
had one groin? Am I wrong in that? I think
you have a groin? And therefore, what's it insubordinate too?
Speaker 2 (12:11):
Do you not have a pair of groins?
Speaker 3 (12:13):
I don't think you have got groins. I've never heard groins.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
It's just sort of an area, is it.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
No, because when they say I've got a groin strain,
you don't say which one do you?
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Well, No, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
Surely you know you trained the groin.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Maybe you can strain both of them. I don't know what.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
You can't make that up. You can't strain both groins
if you had.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
The executive producers just asked some AI over here, and
the ais definitely two groins.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
There are two groins, so maybe you've only got one.
That could be my problem. It's never been in subordinate
to anything. It's why I've probably got It's probably why
I walk strange.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Is it like a kidney? Perhaps you can function on one,
but it's good to have a backup. And that's not
to be confused with the groins. Just out of christ
Church there a sort of a park. It's apelt different,
although there is a Groins and Washington apparently, which is
felt the same. So it's a better All the growing
(13:11):
talk I think we need for one day, don't you.
I am growing hot. I'll see you back here again.
