Speaker 1 (00:00):
Live for the Export Beer Gun Studio and brought to
you by Export Ultra the Beer for Here. This is
the Agenda Podcast for Wednesday, the fourteenth of August.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
The Agenda Podcast, the Home of Sporting Nonsense and Clap Trap,
brought to you by Next Sport of Ultra.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Hump Day Lane.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
It feels so much later. I know, Well, this is
what happens. I was talking about this yesterday with Matt Heath.
We work every weekend and then there's no like division
between last week and this week, so you can't remember
what happened last week. Is this still the same week
as last week?
Speaker 3 (00:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (00:33):
I think today not to have an on air brainstorm,
but I think this afternoon's probably our only free afternoon
for your weightlifting competition.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
How's your How's your Wednesday? After Wednesday is actually quite busy.
I have some space on Friday afternoon. I think this
is probably best done after about nine beers.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Yeah, perhaps nine kind of Friday lunch beers.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
I don't know if that's what they're doing at the
Olympics before they go into their weightlifting competitions.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
Hey, if you I read something, if you had six months, yep,
quit your job, you know, no commentary, you're doing no memes,
you're doing no podcasts, just training. Yeah, which event do
you reckon you could compete in?
Speaker 3 (01:19):
None?
Speaker 1 (01:19):
None, because those people also have six months and didn't
stop exercising after high school, so the difference.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
But were at the shooting ones? Do you reckon in
six months? Just like ten hours a day, seven days
a week.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Because you're assuming they're not doing that, they are also
doing that.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Yeah, I know, and I'm starting from zero a nancing.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
Also still know.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
I don't think that, Like as much as we clown
on Reagan, I don't think I could do a headspin
in six months.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
I am one hundred and eleven killers.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Okay, another and here's another question for you. Every single
event in the Olympics. Yeah, how long do you think
it would take you to complete every single event? Oh,
so you run a marathon, you do one hundred meters,
turn meters for under meters, eight hundred meters like you don't.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
You just have to be able to finish them like
a pole vault, a high jump. Now do I have
to do?
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Okay, so all the swimming events, Yeah, I have to
do all the swimming events, all the various different lengths
as well.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
Do I have to do? So?
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Say, I go and do the sailing. Do I have
to do the dinghy, the laser, the forty nine of
the skiff.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Yeah, but just one race, only one of all of those? Yeah?
So then why am I doing the marathon and one
hundred meters?
Speaker 1 (02:30):
No?
Speaker 3 (02:30):
No, no, I'm sorry, you have to do all the boats? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, everything? Oh,
like five six years, I reckon. I was thinking about it.
Speaker 5 (02:42):
I said, all the weight divisions of weightlifting too, and no,
just wait lift, okay, just weightlifting, because I was looking
at the rowing and I was like, that's going to
take me a long time to loaran, and then I'd
have to do the like two thousand meters.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
I'm not learning. I'm just in the boat and go
one take.
Speaker 4 (02:58):
Oh really, you're going to catch a crab and fly out.
You're gonna have to restart it again.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
You've got to. You can't get disqualified.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Yes, then I'll just start again. I'm not training for it.
Five years, Yeah, I reckon five years. Ages man, the
walking race, the you can do the walking race tomorrow,
yeah and so, and then the next day are going
to get up and roam a boat. Then the next
day are going to get up and.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Well, you've got to learn how to do it. Some
of it you're going to learn.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Our man from Cuba is going to twist me into
a fucking Pritzil next day, I'm going to get served.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
By ray gun. Yeah, there's a.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Few you can just get away with again, the sevens, tenise,
Oh yeah, golf would be pleasant.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Golf would be great. I'd put that halfway through. Yeah,
that'll be my respite. I reckon, I'd get all those
out of the way early, like all of the ones.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
You can just No, this is a good point because
I can't do butterfly.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
I'm going to need to learn how to do that.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
I thought that as well. And it's like the Midley,
I'd drown. Yeah, I'd need to wear a life jacket.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
I'm trying to think of some of the more obscure,
like I don't know how far I could throw javelin,
but I don't think i'd get disqualified.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Ten minute diving board. I just have it there to
be terrifying. It'll be terrifying, but also like there's no
loss there. Jump.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Yeah, it's true, you're sweet just feet first, Yeah, that's right. Yeah,
you might fuck yourself up. But you're not gonna like
you'll be able.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
To do it.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
You've got things like the monkey, like the monkey bar,
things like the what are they called with the rings?
Speaker 1 (04:23):
True, I don't think I could do that. I mean
I could jump up and hold on to it with
my belly poking out what I have to do, and
then the horse the pommel. Yeah, I go running up
and have to try and vault over that, the cat toy,
the ribbon and the ball and stuff. I could walk
out the studio and do that Oregon God, then there'd
(04:46):
be the synchronized swimming. I would drown doing that water polo.
I like water polo dround.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Someone would put me under and I'd stay under. Cycling
races would be easy, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
Just punch it out.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
Yeah. Tryathon's an issue from he's not a great swimmer.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Do you think that you could get out of the
water against that current?
Speaker 3 (05:07):
No, I don't reckon I could swim against that current.
I don't think I could either.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
No way, I would have got about ten meters and
then I would have sort of given up, hopped on
my back and just floated down the river, hoping a
shark would take me.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Because they were going helpful eather and barely making any ground. Yeah,
so I don't know how I would go, just as
our guy that had never trained for it. What about
if you had a flutterboard, No, because I think you
need your arms.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
The flooterboard helps with floating, but it's not going to
propel you. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
So actually the sailing would be a shit show because
I wouldn't know what ropes to pull on, so I'd
never get around the course eventually.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Yeah, specially if in those piers ones it's the single ones,
the peer one, you're just a passenger, surely.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Yeah. If I got another man with me here, yeah,
And I just sat him down and said, look, I've
probably got capacity for two ropes. You tell me what
they are and we'll go from there. I'll pull the
rope when you tell me to, but don't I won't
be able to figure anything else out.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Yeah. I reckon five six years.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Yeah, because I reckon, I'd spend like a month on
the butterfly before I was able to finish Yeah, fifty
meters and then turn.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
Around now I'm going to start doing the bloody Medley.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Well you can do multiple at once, you could just
you cause nominate a month just to do swimming.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Yeah, and just knock them off and take me that
whole month to do it too. But yeah, then all
the other ones that you could easily fail, Like, that'll
be easy. Just hop and get like I said, get
twisted up, get thrown across the room, get fucking karate
kicked in the head.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
That I could do on a day.
Speaker 4 (06:35):
I just turn up to a dojo and just get
the shit out of you all day boxing as well.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Go and take one to the chin.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Yeah, David Yi is going to a money Clift's going
to come out and just spark me out in a heartbeat.
Then our man from Cuba is gonna twist me up
and do a pretzel. Someone's going to judo toss me
across the room.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
I reckon I could do that in the day. I
probably need a week to recover after that.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Can you could do it in less than a year.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Oh, it'll be tough though. That's a lot.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
They handed out something like five hundred gold medals over there,
and I presume you know a lot of those are
team sports, but you, I reckon it take me longer
than a year, But I know, let me know, and
let us know. In the old voice mailfunction. Grast New
Zealander of all time. John Too Good, Jesus, he got
obliterated last night. I knew that was going to happen,
Poor Johnny Good. It was just just a victim of circumstance.
(07:28):
He ran into a buzz saw in the first round
in the shape of Dave Dobbin. It's going to be
interesting when a couple of these guys who have put
the smack down in round one then come up against
someone else who did in round one as well.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Yeah, when they come up against Charles Upham, Charles up
and versus Dave Dobbin.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
Yeah, yeah, I don't rack the Dobber's chance here.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
No, Today's one's another controversial one, although I feel like
this is all going to go one way as well.
It is Brenda McCallum versus Martin Crow. Now I was
a little too young to remember Martin Crow. How where
do you rank those two in terms of our best batsman?
Speaker 4 (08:03):
Oh, Martin Crowe is an absolute legend. May have slightly
sullied his career and the end there when he threatened
to burn his blazer and all sorts and started meddling in.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
The politics of New Zealand cricket.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
And so there's a little bit there that makes me
think Bears, I'm a more Bears man.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
But again that is a circumstance and.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
The fact that I feel like I saw, I lived
through Bears, whereas I was very I wasn't even born
half of.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Mart and Crowe's career.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
But you watch Bears take us out of the doldrums
of international cricket.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
Absolutely to the peaks.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Yeah, and I feel like he's a little bit more relatable.
Crushes Darry's bets on horses species, red Wine.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Goes down, still goes and turns out for his local
rugby club.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
Yeah, whereas Martin, you know, got the rug and everything
and just just everything turned a bit odd near the end.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
There glorious photos of.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
Him, though, because I've been putting a lot of the
artwork together for this stuff. And when you look up
photos of Martin Crow he looks resplendent. Sometimes he's got
the fucking Ninja turtle headband on and one.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Of the best batsmen to watch bat He was so
elegant and his timing and everything he was in that team.
He was so far ahead of anyone else in terms
of style and skill.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
Yeah, so that's what made him so great.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
I feel like Bes has a lot of that as well.
He was a very unique player and in terms of
his approach to the game, obviously you see it with
the old bass ball now with England.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
But you know, at the.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Time, as I even remember some yarn about him talking
to the tail end, hasn't been like, look, you're going
to get out in like Ted Bulls, because he's about
are you going to get out for three runs or
are you going to get out for fifteen runs? You know,
that could be the difference for us. That's I think
he said.
Speaker 4 (09:41):
He he was in the he coached the team that
the fucking maner Express Lockie Ferguson was playing for.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
And Lockie he went through like quite a purple.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Patch of runs and he won a couple of games
for Auckland hitting six's.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
In the last over or whatever.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Yeah, and he I mean he used to bat seven
in our last man stands team. He didn't really care,
you know, he was one of those bowlers who there whatever.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
But then when he was with Bears, Bears, like what
are you doing, man, Just fucking hit it, have a crap,
Like just fucking have a go. You've got a good eye,
you play your good golfer. Obviously, it's like Sam with
Trent Bolt. And so then you went, yeah, fuck it,
I got an angle lose and you just started talking it.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
So it kind of empowers people to do to do that.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Oh I've said this before, but I've been in meetings
with Brenda McCallum in my time in the mainstream sports media,
and you walk out of that meeting and you're like,
I'm ready to walk through a wall. Why can't we
be the greatest media organization, not just in New Zealand but.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
In the world. And so you walk out there.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
And then you put out three pieces of dog shirt content.
You're like, oh, that's right. Seven people listen, mainly your family, Yeah,
and filmy sister listening to it and send it to you.
Stopped doing that, Dad, And I don't want to think
about her sitting in the corner of the room while
we do on this podcast. But yeah, so do you think,
(10:58):
how do you think this one's going to go?
Speaker 3 (11:00):
It's going to go, Bears, It's gonna go. It's going
to go bears.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
I think purely because there's going to be some purists too,
Will get fired up about Siman. I think someone's already
commented this is like comparing Beethoven to a rock concert,
and you know, so be it. Do you like rock
or do you like Bethoven? Just let us know that's
not the argument. We're not going to Beethoven versus you know,
the same one they have no.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Wolf gung up on a day, that's right, that's Mozart. Yeah, Mozart,
yea Ludwig van Beethoven.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
It is what it is.
Speaker 4 (11:35):
More of a Motart guy, by the way, Okay he writes,
I'm more a Wagner guy.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Nah.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Mozart used to write symphonies the way that you write emails.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
It just came that easily to him.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
You know, he'd just sit down, he'd write them without
a piece of paper, you know, if his dinner wasn't
really he'd go back up to his room and write
a fucking, you know, symphony while he's wing for Sorry, Carrol.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
Are you you're you're I'm picking You're a bears man.
I'm a bears man. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
I just again didn't really see Martin Crow and from
what I have seen of him, tremendous. But yeah, I
just lived through the Bears the Bears experiment, and I
just love that because cricket is such a traditional sport.
I love when people are like, why are we doing
it that way? And if the answer is because we've
always done it that way, there's always an opportunity there
to change, change, sit up. And I just like the
(12:23):
mentality of like, you'd rather lose trying to go for
a wind than draw trying to go for a drawer. Yeah,
and yeah, look just same as you been able to
sit through and watch the whole thing.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
So it could be an age thing, but yeah, I.
Speaker 4 (12:34):
Think it is, and I know I think we'll see
another divide in the platforms. Yeah, I think we'll see
a massive Bears spike and Instagram and a potential comeback
for MD.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
On the Facebook. Yeah, so get online and have your say.
Just before he to an air break. This story caught
my It's been sent in many a time. Overnight, the
Auckland City Mission has discovered lollies donated by an unknown
member of the public contain potentially lethal levels of metham fetamine.
So they render brand pineapple lollies, which, by the way,
if you come across any of them, but don't fucking
(13:08):
eat them do not eat the Rinder branded lollies. They
were unceealed retail sized packages and send out in food parcels,
So someone gave them to the Aukland City Mission to
send out in their food parcels. Apparently they contained approximately
three grams of metham fetterment each. A common dose is
between ten to twenty five milligrams, so this contains the
lolly's head up to three hundred doses of meth in there.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
What the okay is that a thing meth lollies?
Speaker 4 (13:35):
I don't know, or is this some myth smuggling that
has gone a bit of rye that's what I thought.
Speaker 3 (13:42):
Bring in a container of.
Speaker 4 (13:43):
Lollies and tell the had by the way that you know,
thirty four box out of one thousand, that's the one
full of myth lollies.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Yeah, for you to take the myth out of it.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
And they're trying to get it through to someone an
city mission, and it's.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Come through and the whole lots come through and the
like we've lost box thirty seven, Yeah, and then it's
ended up being donated or whatever it.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
Has to be because nobody is just dishing out that
amount of vitamin is there a Walter White operating in Auckland.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
Imagine also the fact that if you were, you know,
a city mission, you're helping out, you know, the lower classes.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
They've just I've just kicked the habit just got their
first job.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
You know, they've got some houses. I've just all they
want is a bit of food. And then you eat
one of.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Those lollies and they're all spirals out of control.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Oh Jesus.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
So if you come across Render Rinder Render brand pineapple lollies,
donate them or or know what you're doing. Yeah, eat
half and see you feel, but keep you.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
I mean like, you know, got gummies, You've got cannabis
gummy gummies and all those lollies.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Sure, but I've never never heard of a myth medicinal
myth vitamin. All right, let's take a quick break to
check the office for any Render branded pineapple lollies. When
we come back, I've got another NRL scandal. R NRL scandal,
this one though we don't need the alarm for it's
on field. So Kyle Flanagan, who you probably haven't heard of.
(15:17):
He remains adamant that he did not bite Stephen Crichton's nose,
despite last night being handed a for match band for
biting Stephen Crichton's nose. Yeah, you haven't seen the images
of this. So Stephen Crichton tackled him and as he
was on the ground, he sort of smashed his face
into Kyle Flanagan's face.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
It was a bit of like.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
You know, a bit of hair, and his nose ended
up inside Flanagan's mouth. Flanagan has then clearly better on him.
You can see the photo because as Crichton's pulling his
head back, has nose stretches. You know what, I'm with Flanagan.
Speaker 4 (15:52):
If you it's like a dog like you don't or
a lion, you don't put your head or you don't
put your any item in another since mouth.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
I'm with them, you bite down naturally.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Okay, Well there's no place for it in the game,
according to the judiciary.
Speaker 3 (16:07):
Se someone someone stuffs their nose in your mouth. I'm not.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
I mean like I've sucked my fear amount of snot
out of a baby's nose and then sped it out.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
That's the clad. I didn't bite it off though, but.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
You've got four weeks.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
Yeah, have you seen people do that?
Speaker 3 (16:22):
I've never seen that made me suck that. You just
said that, I haven't done it.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
People go, how do you get because because babies can't
blow their own nose. Yeah, so there is a machine
you can get where you just basically put it over
their nose and you and it kind of sucks out
of the snot. And then I've bet someone goes I
do that. I just go in there and to suck
it out of my mouth and sped it out.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
And I was like, it's just a consistency of snot.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
You know, even your own can be quite revolting sometimes anyway,
little one someone else, even.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
Though I digress.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
Anyway, my cousin he played super rugby and he was
a big biter.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Ah, that's big biter.
Speaker 6 (16:58):
And he I asked him why he goes up sometimes
people like a few times things have just got in
his mouth and he just bit them, you know what
I mean, Like if it's a.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Forearm or I think part of it is you think
you're getting away with it.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Well, Also I don't think he was searching it out.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
I don't think he's runing around gangang at.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
But one if an opportunity arose with someone's finger or
arm or whatever ended up in his mouth.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
He was still to bite it off.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Well, this was an interesting one in the NROLW a
few years ago. A dear friend of the ACC Mady Bartlett,
she got done for her biting. But when you watch
the replay, the person was on top of her and
driving their forearm into her mouth. Yeah, there was no
like biting motion or anything. But then when they stood
up there was like, you know, teeth marks in her forearm.
It's like, you, of course, there are you just fucking
(17:45):
shived her in the.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
Yeah, you mind yourself when someone's going for your mouth. Yeah,
and you can't punch them.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
The difference here is he's trying to pull his nose
out of Flannagan's mouth, and the photo is of Flannagin
biting down and you can see his nose stretching in
the and then after he's taking photos with people and
his nose is bright red and there's blood dripping off. Okay,
you're like, if you're trying to if you were a
sport that has issues with its image, that can't be
(18:11):
one of the images that you're putting out there into
the world.
Speaker 4 (18:14):
Is there anything that doesn't happen on a rugby league bield.
There's ass poking, there's squirrel gripping the nose biting.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
Yeah, there's all sorts.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
And I also just think it's the most like, if
you're the kind of guy who bites people's noses, you're
also the kind of guy who denies it straight away.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
So I love that. It is a hard thing tonight.
Speaker 4 (18:32):
I remember there's like it's like the was it Johann
LaRue who bit off Sean Fitzpatrick? Yeah, and he denied
it for a bit and then he admitted it and
keep blood around his mouth and Swan Fitzpatrick's missing the
end of his ear. And then he got quoted at
the end of the match, you know, saying, you know,
what did you do with your figures? I think I
(18:53):
could have bitten his ear right off.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
That's how he defended himself.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Even Mike Tyson immediately was just like, no, I didn't
when he Evander Holyfield's here off and then spat it
into the front row, So.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
What do you mean, no, you didn't? Real how did
he bite that off with a mouthguard?
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Bottom teeth? I suppose same way. I mean Kyle Flanigan
had a mouth guard and yeah, bottom teeth. I guess
AnyWho is the ner on field scandal for this well,
for today, I'm not going to roll that.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Another one popping up tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
If you've seen, by the way the Olympics, all of
the athletes are flying back home again, We've got our
own Jazz Hothams. She was over at sig Festival and
the official like media team there got a photo of
her with a gold medal. Imagine being at like a
massive festival with a gold medal. That'd be pretty sick.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
It would be pretty so it doesn't get better than that.
I wouldn't also trust myself.
Speaker 4 (19:43):
I would wait, I would I would wake out in
the morning and go you know when sometimes you wake
up in the morning and you pet your pockets.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
For your wallet and your phone. Yeah the Australian hucker.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
Yeah, you go there and you go, okay, I've got
I've got my phone and the wallet.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
It can't be much worse than that. And then you
go to your chest and go, fuck my gold midle
gold medal.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Surely you could get a replace where you I don't know.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
I'd take it.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
I think it's for you know, I would rather have
that memory of me being at to get with the Yeah.
Speaker 4 (20:11):
True, there's a there's a great did you on social media?
There's an American athlete who.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Won bronze on the skateboarder.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
He just partied with it for a week and then
it just showed the state of it and it was
just fucked.
Speaker 7 (20:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (20:23):
You can see the like beer stains all over it,
and it was like but I always thought, like, you know,
when you see a bronze like statue or something, they
go like green, They get all this green shit all
over them. I think that's in New Zealand with that
it's that kind of is that brass kind of like
especially around d and moss, mold and guns.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Yeah, I think I need some bit of needs a
better wit and forget. Okay, maybe maybe that's what it is,
but I always thought the bronze sort of deteriorated anywhay,
that's where you use it anyway. Yeah, he was complaining
about the quality of them. Well, should have one gold mane, Yeah,
should have one gold. They seem to be holding up
all right. Pakistani man Nadim he's gone back to Pakistan
to have you seen the videos of him going home? No,
(21:06):
hundreds of thousands of people have greeted him at the airport.
They put on a bus for him, hundreds of thousands
of people up and down the street.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Everywhere he's going, he's being carried.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
The politicians in Pakistan are falling over themselves to give
him money so that they can say, oh, he's you know,
he's my mate, Nadin.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
They're all so stoked with them.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
The Pakistan Prime Minister has announced one hundred and fifty
million rupees which is five hundred and thirty eight thousand US,
at a special ceremony to honor him. He also handed
the keys to a new car which has a special
registration plate of PAK nine two nine seven, which is
how farry through it ninety two meters ninety seven centimeters,
(21:49):
which was an Olympic record.
Speaker 3 (21:51):
He said in the Dems.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Elevated the name of Pakistan worldwide because of his day
and night hard work, pearents, prayers and coaches training.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
See, there's no this is no prize to me.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
That's why I said India should be great at the
javelin because they're good at cricket.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
Oh, to be fair, the Indian dude got the silver medal.
Speaker 4 (22:07):
Oh there you go, so that, Yeah, but they're not
going to take this lying down India. God no bark
no being beaten by Pakistan on the world stage. As
I was saying the other day, you watch the javelin
program go through the roof.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
Yeah, oh, and that's actually that's a big part of
it here, isn't it's because he beat the Indian Yes,
right of course it is. I was like, wow, big,
big javelin nation. I've got two hundred thousand people out
into the streets just to welcome them home.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
Imagine what will happen to both countries javelin programs. He's
going to be kids hiffen broomsticks everywhere. Yeah, I mean
it's quite dangerous. You need a big space for Jefflin.
There's going to be there's going to be some accidents.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
They're going to have pop up you know, the what
are the top shot driving range things that we have
here in New zealk Ye simulators. They let bloody javelin simulators.
I reckon around Pakistan. We have a couple of beers
and go down the javelin simulator on Friday if you
ken it's just go and have a look at the videos,
the photos. It's outrageous, Like the welcome that he's had home.
I don't think we do that kind of thing very
(23:06):
well here in New Zealand. I think that's a sport
to watch in La.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
The javelin yep that's going to blow up, could kick
off World War three, if it hasn't already.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
Tens of thousands of people also packed a stadium in
Botswana to welcome home a sprinter, Tobogo, who was the
two hundred meter gold medalist. He took out Noah Lyles.
Thank god he did too. And yeah again, tens of
thousands of people packing out stadiums.
Speaker 3 (23:28):
What have we done? Nothing?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (23:31):
Maybe maybe the odd hucker at the airport, Yeah, I.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Think they might be a small a small hucker. But
I think they talked about a parade, but they.
Speaker 4 (23:38):
Said it was very difficult because a lot of the
athletes are going to festivals, going on holiday. They're coming
back some dribs and drabs. The sevens team has been
home for two weeks.
Speaker 3 (23:47):
They're all at home now. There's no US starting to
show up in the NRLW. Now.
Speaker 4 (23:51):
I think if we were a young nation who'd never
won a gold medal before, they hadn't won a gold
medal in thirty or forty years.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
Yes, but when you're willing ten of them, it gets
a bit living world for fourth per capita.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
We really won it.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Yeah, yeah, it does get a little bit sort of
boring a little bit. Man Paulson, by the way, he's
been interviewed. Obviously he was the goalkeeper for the Phoenix.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
He got sent over to Bournemouth or got bought by
Bournemouth and then sent down to Auckland FC. And there
was a headline in the papers today. Paulson explains shock
Auckland FC.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
Switch. Didn't read the article, but I just.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Wish that if I had clicked on it, it just
popped up with the image of him just saying fuck
the Phoenix just thrown gasoline on the rivalry. I can't
wait for this. I can't wait for this.
Speaker 4 (24:40):
These two derby's happening both the side of Christmas Home
and yeah there's one down in Wellington and there's one
back in Mount Smart all before Christmas.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
Yeah, right, that's gonna be good. Shit, it's gonna be good.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
We need to Is there a firm already? Is it
like a football hooligan firm set up?
Speaker 4 (24:55):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (24:56):
I hope so, I hope so. But I mean down
in Wellington.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
You just come with their briefcase and there crafty years.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
And I worked.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
This will shock you not at all that I had
a random job in Australia as a postman and one
day wasn't one day my boss, the big Banana they
called him, He asked me to come into his office
just to tell me the story about when he used
to be in a firm in England and he was
getting he got separated from his mates and the opponent
(25:24):
opposing firm was chasing him down the street and he
ran into a hardware store and then he ran down
one of the aisles and found a shovel and picked
up a shovel and was fighting ten other men off
with this shovel, and then went in and supported the
game and they won.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
And then he said, and now you're free to go.
And I was like, that's all that happened.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
He called me and told me that story and then
turned me loose back into the mail sorting room and
I was like, what the fuck was that?
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Was he testing some material?
Speaker 1 (25:49):
I don't know if he was like trying to show
me he was hard or something. I was like, mate,
you sawt male for a living.
Speaker 4 (25:54):
I've had friends who have got a little bit involved
in supporting teams.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
In London and hooliganism, well a little bit.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
I mean they used to get there were cricketers and
they were over there playing a bit of candy cricket
cricket hooligans.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
But they'd go to the football.
Speaker 4 (26:07):
And the other guys they were sharpening coins like pennies
and hiffing them into the opposition, like they'll be behind
the goal and then they'd be right next to them
and they were halfing these sharpened us kind of ten
pea coins into the area, Like.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
What the fucking psychos.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
Yeah, I was just joking about Wellington and their briefcases
and craft beers.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
But I can't wait for them to come up here.
And no, no, no, I want to go and get
a bunch of coins out of the bank.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
Sharpening the market the grinder out well would work best.
You reckon a fitty, the fetty cent. You don't want
to go on a two dollars or one dollar. Well,
he's too small.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
If you remember a few years ago they changed all
the coins to the fifties A tiny Now I'd go
a two dollar coin.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
Really just hitting two bucks about what are you doing.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
That's worth It's worth its American. Yeah, that's how much
I hate the Phoenix now open.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
To open up a Phoenix fan with a two dollar coin.
That's what it's worth to me.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
All Right, we're going to But this is the most
we've talked about soccer in quite a while, despite the
fact that there's none going on.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
I can't wait for it. I'm into it now.
Speaker 4 (27:07):
I'm a I'm a convert purely for the amount of
noise it's going to create. And the Pulson move. Paulson,
great move. I love it. It's a real finger.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
Oh it's a middle finger. Fuck Foix.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
It is Wednesday, he's going to Q talkbacks. It is Wednesday,
so it is time for another half baked sports idea.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Half bait sports.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
I dear not a lot of fan fare around the
NPC starting over the weekend, although I did watch a
couple of games and it was great to have the NPC.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
I don't know, there's something about it.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
I think I may prefer it to Super Rugby, and
I think I think it's just because the the games
are a little bit more free flowing.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
There's more wild shit happening. Also, you know, every team.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
I can't give a fuck about Act Brumbies or the
Reds or the Blues from New South Wales.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
That's a big part of and I think probably the
biggest part is that the Crusaders had to bid the season.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
So that's.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
You've given up on super right element of spat dummy here.
But my idea, because they're talking about that they're not
going to broadcast as many NPC games, they may even
not broadcast any next season, is that what they were saying,
or like one a week or something like that. I
think I'm definitely going to get rid of any of
the heartland stuff. Yeah, well they only did one game
a week for the last few years anyway. But yeah,
So my idea for it is in PC red Zone.
(28:33):
So I don't know if you're not familiar with the
NFL Red Zone, how it works is there's multiple games
being played at the same time on a Sunday over
there in the States, and so what they do is
you can flick on a channel and it's called red Zone,
and they will go between each of the games, like
whoever's most likely to score next, So say there's four
games going on and whoever you know Taylor swift and
(28:55):
them are about to score a touchdown, they'll switch to
that and you get to watch that. Neither score or
they don't, then they'll go to whoever's more likely.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
Is it live or is it like the golf?
Speaker 4 (29:04):
It's live like because with golf, when it's around on,
they cut to you patting, for example, and you drain
a massive part. But then they can cut back to
someone who's just teed off on a path three. But
it would have happened thirty seconds ago.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
You know what I mean? Yeah, is that what happens
in the red zone?
Speaker 4 (29:21):
Because I can imagine they can they see a touchdown
scored and then they go right, but we've got another
red zone happening here.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Let's just well clip that bit and then they could,
but they don't. I think the advantage in golf is
such a slow sport, you can afford to do that
without missing out on primarily bidding odds, which have to
happen live, but no on the red zone.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
One.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
I think why it works for NFL is because you
don't often score a hundred yard touchdown. This is probably
the only part where it may fall apart for NPC.
So how my idea works is that we have n PC.
All of the games are played on a Saturday afternoon,
and they play them all across the afternoon, So I
probably start at about three four in the afternoon through
to ten o'clock at night. And when you sit down
(30:03):
on your Saturday afternoon, you're just watching the NPC. You're
not watching this team with that team. Obviously you've got
your own team, but you're just watching NPC for that night,
and then it just flicks through. Hey, Canterbury's about to school,
will go over here, Taranak is about school.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
We're going to go over to this game now.
Speaker 4 (30:17):
Yeah, there's a lot of a lot of fifty sixty
meter tries in NPC, though, how do you that's good?
Speaker 3 (30:22):
How do you a line break?
Speaker 4 (30:24):
Say a line Brandon en Or has a line break
sixty meters out because it gives it outside to Max Springer,
who scores, Like, how are you gonna? Yeah, because at
twenty two I get it. Twenty two is nine as
the red zone by reggae players. Anyway, Yeah, there's also
the issue around being in the red zone for fifteen
minutes and not scoring a try.
Speaker 3 (30:44):
Meanwhile, Meanwhile, the.
Speaker 4 (30:47):
Tartanaki Wellington game there's been two lengths of the field
tries that she hadn't been able to cut back to.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
You had a charge down the heaven said, yeah, I know,
this is probably where it falls apart, because, yeah, you're
so right.
Speaker 3 (30:59):
Canterbria in the red zone. Are we going to switch
to them now?
Speaker 1 (31:01):
It's just fifteen fifteen consecutive phases and then a knock
on five scrum reseets and you've missed it tries down
the other end. Yeah, it could be where it falls apart,
but I just feel like that gets you stuck.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
To your couch for that six hour stretch.
Speaker 4 (31:13):
I can there's merit in it, but it might have
to go the gold route. You might have to have
a production room bunker situation where you're clipping.
Speaker 3 (31:22):
They're as live as they can be.
Speaker 4 (31:24):
Yeah, but if something happens in another game, like a
length of the field try you clip that and when
the red zone finishes with the Canterbury Tartanaki game, you
can flip to the Tasman marco versus Tago one where
there's the length of the field and then go back
to a you know what I mean, Like if any
breakouts you clip and put in between other genuine red zones.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
During the Olympics, I was doing the fourth screen thing
on Sky.
Speaker 3 (31:47):
Have you tried that?
Speaker 4 (31:48):
Nah?
Speaker 3 (31:49):
Nah? So you can.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
You know, they've got so many different channels, particularly across
the Olympics. You can click whatever configuration you want, so
you can have picture in pictures, so you've got your
Olympics and then your rugby league game in the corner.
We could do side by side. You can do up
to four different sports.
Speaker 4 (32:03):
You did that on the skygo on the skysport now app.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
I don't think you can do it if you're casting
to your TV, but I was doing it on my laptop.
Speaker 3 (32:12):
But it was great. You could watch Also.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
The only problem was you couldn't flick if you know,
Lisa Carrington's about to go. You couldn't all of a
sudden make that the bug one. You had to reconfigure them.
I feel like that's probably how it would work. You'd
have like four screens going and then this one becomes
big when they're about to score. I don't know, I
just feel like it would make it. Now, obviously it
doesn't solve the problem that it still costs a shipload
to broadcast all of these games.
Speaker 3 (32:34):
You kind of have to have cruise at every single one.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
Yeah, that hasn't fixed that problem at all, but I
do think more people would watch it. Yeah, but yeah,
that's my half pack sports idea for a Wednesday.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
It's in PC. We've had worse.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
Let's yeah, last week, I think the Civil War. Let's
take a quick break and come back with yours please.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
Yours please? Brought you by leader.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
Threw them to get through today. First caller, yours please.
Speaker 7 (33:05):
I've had a question on my mind for the last
couple of weeks and says greatest New Zealander debate started.
Who the fuck is Frosty Boy? Gulane keeps talking about
him like he's some national icon, a treasure that is
known by children and adults alike across the land. I've
never heard of the guy Jesus but the boomer Now
(33:25):
Glane getting up here?
Speaker 4 (33:27):
Who wrote ow Frosty Boy, Frosty Boy.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
I'm glad someone else. I just presumed everyone else knew
who Frosty Boy was and I didn't.
Speaker 4 (33:36):
I'm I'm looking for some sport out here. Surely people
know who Frosty Boy.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
Is, well, sending in a voicemail view if you know
Frosty Boy. By the sounds of it, he wouldn't have
beaten mister Whippie anyway, he wouldn't. He means more and
more people than Frosty Boy.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
He does. Another caller here, yours?
Speaker 8 (33:57):
What about if the head are all at the end?
Imps that the hosting country could make up any event
that they liked and it only ever happens once, and
the French could have had a climate Eiffel Tower competition.
Speaker 2 (34:13):
I measine that they could make.
Speaker 8 (34:15):
It safe and ship la what could they have a
drive by shooting a safe dry by shooting competition?
Speaker 2 (34:24):
Yours? Please?
Speaker 4 (34:26):
That that I had a vision in my mind of that.
Talk back yours please. Walking down a dark corridor at
a hospital, did you hear that, clop.
Speaker 1 (34:36):
I was picturing walking around the changing hids in your
rugby boots.
Speaker 4 (34:40):
I thought it was a kind of a more of
a high a kind of a heeled dress choe and
a lino floor in a hospital. Or but in the
basement of the hospital where they keep all the bodies.
Speaker 3 (34:50):
And stuff, there was the lights off.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
Fuck hundred percent lights off.
Speaker 3 (34:53):
What would we have in New Zealand, I guess ram rating.
Speaker 4 (34:56):
Yeah, it would be would be pretty mean, and not
just your typical ram rate. I'm talking like a mall
ram raid, like through the front doors of a malle,
Michael Hell, getting the car sideways at the mall, knocking
over the mister Mint and then hitting jewelry stores, maybe
a couple of clothing stores, and then out the front
doors again.
Speaker 3 (35:11):
That's next level. Yeah, I think. So.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
You know what a great way to showcase some of
the beautiful malls that we have around our country. Lynn
Moore as well, Yeah, Glenfield Moore was the Racket and
Mall Milford Mall. If you can ram rate the upstairs
of the Ricket and Mall, hats off to you.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
Well, that's part of the challenge creativity. Yeah, and that's.
Speaker 4 (35:28):
Where you bring your your speed climbers in because you
come through the front doors and you spend seeing the
speed climbers up to the second floor.
Speaker 1 (35:34):
Yes, like this athlete actually competed at the speed climbing
at the last Olympics, but he's converted now to ram
rating just for just for the New zeal Ones siren battles,
you get people.
Speaker 3 (35:44):
Siren pat would be funny.
Speaker 4 (35:47):
Imagine the rest of the world turning up going what
fuck is this a bunch of dudes on rally twenties.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
Playing finger boys with.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
The stolen tenoise from sports grounds and primary.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
Local school girl no base, Yeah, high pitched back and
binger boys. I think we'd take that one out.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
I think we would demolish other countries that the Siren battles,
Sirron Beatles and ram rods a rerickon I go to
oh gun boats throw Yeah, but la, what would they do? Well,
Like you said drive bys, they could have some sort
of like rap beef, you know, like dis tracks, release
disk tracks. Kendrick Lamar could be and would be the
hot short favorite for gold Midle. I don't really know
(36:34):
what else is. Who can grow the strongest strain of weed?
That would be good. Imagine the judging for that weeks
It'll be it's basically like how quickly can you green
out Snoop Dog. They start the clock from the moment
he takes the first drag and whatever your strain is,
and by the time he's screened out, it's like thirteen minutes.
Speaker 4 (36:54):
It could be a stunt Hollywood star, Yeah, so you
probably could pull off the best stunt.
Speaker 1 (36:59):
Yeah, I was thinking like a forty hour film festival.
It's a good idea. Yeah, see, you got forty hours
to make a video and then they get that's a
great idea. Yeah, maybe they get played at the closing
ceremony or something. What do your film festival? All right,
well the last call here you're suppose.
Speaker 3 (37:14):
Yeah, no good idea.
Speaker 7 (37:15):
Lads, just wondering when did you start posting these videos
on YouTube?
Speaker 1 (37:18):
I had no clue.
Speaker 3 (37:19):
I mean, you probably don't need to four views in
the last hour.
Speaker 1 (37:24):
That's pretty disappointing, by the way, Fox Up Cannibry.
Speaker 4 (37:29):
Yeah, well look, I mean they all we do is
we video this anyway, so we just check it on
YouTube as well. I mean, in fact, there's only four
people watching it. That's four people that weren't.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Watching it before. Well, I mean, I don't think we've
ever said on this podcast that it's actually up on YouTube,
and now we have, but only right at the end
of the episode where no idea say most people have
turned off by now, yeah, we'll shout out to all
those YouTubers.
Speaker 3 (37:48):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Well, maybe if another one is goes and views it,
then we'll be at five and at that point we
can really start making the big dark. Yeah, what's the
tipping point seven? Oh to be Yeah, it'll be around
probably double digits. Oh yeah, we'll get into that real
YouTube money.
Speaker 3 (38:03):
Yeah bro.
Speaker 1 (38:04):
Yeah, so Stephen Sheer, Yeah, if each of the five
people that listen to this can tell twenty people to
go and watch it, you know, we're at one hundred.
Speaker 3 (38:11):
Watch that mister beast coming for you, Coming for your beastie. Yeah, brilliant.
All right, So I hope you've enjoyed this podcast.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
Go back and watch it again if you did, Yeah,
and otherwise, we'll see you tomorrow for a Thursday episode

Speaker 3 (00:15):
Hump Day Lane.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
It feels so much later. I know, Well, this is
what happens. I was talking about this yesterday with Matt Heath.
We work every weekend and then there's no like division
between last week and this week, so you can't remember
what happened last week. Is this still the same week
as last week?
Speaker 3 (00:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (00:33):
I think today not to have an on air brainstorm,
but I think this afternoon's probably our only free afternoon
for your weightlifting competition.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
How's your How's your Wednesday? After Wednesday is actually quite busy.
I have some space on Friday afternoon. I think this
is probably best done after about nine beers.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Yeah, perhaps nine kind of Friday lunch beers.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
I don't know if that's what they're doing at the
Olympics before they go into their weightlifting competitions.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
Hey, if you I read something, if you had six months, yep,
quit your job, you know, no commentary, you're doing no memes,
you're doing no podcasts, just training. Yeah, which event do
you reckon you could compete in?
Speaker 3 (01:19):
None?
Speaker 1 (01:19):
None, because those people also have six months and didn't
stop exercising after high school, so the difference.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
But were at the shooting ones? Do you reckon in
six months? Just like ten hours a day, seven days
a week.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Because you're assuming they're not doing that, they are also
doing that.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Yeah, I know, and I'm starting from zero a nancing.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
Also still know.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
I don't think that, Like as much as we clown
on Reagan, I don't think I could do a headspin
in six months.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
I am one hundred and eleven killers.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Okay, another and here's another question for you. Every single
event in the Olympics. Yeah, how long do you think
it would take you to complete every single event? Oh,
so you run a marathon, you do one hundred meters,
turn meters for under meters, eight hundred meters like you don't.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
You just have to be able to finish them like
a pole vault, a high jump. Now do I have
to do?
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Okay, so all the swimming events, Yeah, I have to
do all the swimming events, all the various different lengths
as well.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
Do I have to do? So?
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Say, I go and do the sailing. Do I have
to do the dinghy, the laser, the forty nine of
the skiff.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Yeah, but just one race, only one of all of those? Yeah?
So then why am I doing the marathon and one
hundred meters?
Speaker 1 (02:30):
No?
Speaker 3 (02:30):
No, no, I'm sorry, you have to do all the boats? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, everything? Oh,
like five six years, I reckon. I was thinking about it.
Speaker 5 (02:42):
I said, all the weight divisions of weightlifting too, and no,
just wait lift, okay, just weightlifting, because I was looking
at the rowing and I was like, that's going to
take me a long time to loaran, and then I'd
have to do the like two thousand meters.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
I'm not learning. I'm just in the boat and go
one take.
Speaker 4 (02:58):
Oh really, you're going to catch a crab and fly out.
You're gonna have to restart it again.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
You've got to. You can't get disqualified.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Yes, then I'll just start again. I'm not training for it.
Five years, Yeah, I reckon five years. Ages man, the
walking race, the you can do the walking race tomorrow,
yeah and so, and then the next day are going
to get up and roam a boat. Then the next
day are going to get up and.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Well, you've got to learn how to do it. Some
of it you're going to learn.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Our man from Cuba is going to twist me into
a fucking Pritzil next day, I'm going to get served.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
By ray gun. Yeah, there's a.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Few you can just get away with again, the sevens, tenise,
Oh yeah, golf would be pleasant.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Golf would be great. I'd put that halfway through. Yeah,
that'll be my respite. I reckon, I'd get all those
out of the way early, like all of the ones.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
You can just No, this is a good point because
I can't do butterfly.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
I'm going to need to learn how to do that.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
I thought that as well. And it's like the Midley,
I'd drown. Yeah, I'd need to wear a life jacket.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
I'm trying to think of some of the more obscure,
like I don't know how far I could throw javelin,
but I don't think i'd get disqualified.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Ten minute diving board. I just have it there to
be terrifying. It'll be terrifying, but also like there's no
loss there. Jump.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Yeah, it's true, you're sweet just feet first, Yeah, that's right. Yeah,
you might fuck yourself up. But you're not gonna like
you'll be able.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
To do it.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
You've got things like the monkey, like the monkey bar,
things like the what are they called with the rings?
Speaker 1 (04:23):
True, I don't think I could do that. I mean
I could jump up and hold on to it with
my belly poking out what I have to do, and
then the horse the pommel. Yeah, I go running up
and have to try and vault over that, the cat toy,
the ribbon and the ball and stuff. I could walk
out the studio and do that Oregon God, then there'd
(04:46):
be the synchronized swimming. I would drown doing that water polo.
I like water polo dround.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Someone would put me under and I'd stay under. Cycling
races would be easy, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
Just punch it out.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
Yeah. Tryathon's an issue from he's not a great swimmer.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Do you think that you could get out of the
water against that current?
Speaker 3 (05:07):
No, I don't reckon I could swim against that current.
I don't think I could either.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
No way, I would have got about ten meters and
then I would have sort of given up, hopped on
my back and just floated down the river, hoping a
shark would take me.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Because they were going helpful eather and barely making any ground. Yeah,
so I don't know how I would go, just as
our guy that had never trained for it. What about
if you had a flutterboard, No, because I think you
need your arms.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
The flooterboard helps with floating, but it's not going to
propel you. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
So actually the sailing would be a shit show because
I wouldn't know what ropes to pull on, so I'd
never get around the course eventually.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Yeah, specially if in those piers ones it's the single ones,
the peer one, you're just a passenger, surely.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Yeah. If I got another man with me here, yeah,
And I just sat him down and said, look, I've
probably got capacity for two ropes. You tell me what
they are and we'll go from there. I'll pull the
rope when you tell me to, but don't I won't
be able to figure anything else out.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Yeah. I reckon five six years.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Yeah, because I reckon, I'd spend like a month on
the butterfly before I was able to finish Yeah, fifty
meters and then turn.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
Around now I'm going to start doing the bloody Medley.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Well you can do multiple at once, you could just
you cause nominate a month just to do swimming.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Yeah, and just knock them off and take me that
whole month to do it too. But yeah, then all
the other ones that you could easily fail, Like, that'll
be easy. Just hop and get like I said, get
twisted up, get thrown across the room, get fucking karate
kicked in the head.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
That I could do on a day.
Speaker 4 (06:35):
I just turn up to a dojo and just get
the shit out of you all day boxing as well.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Go and take one to the chin.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Yeah, David Yi is going to a money Clift's going
to come out and just spark me out in a heartbeat.
Then our man from Cuba is gonna twist me up
and do a pretzel. Someone's going to judo toss me
across the room.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
I reckon I could do that in the day. I
probably need a week to recover after that.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Can you could do it in less than a year.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Oh, it'll be tough though. That's a lot.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
They handed out something like five hundred gold medals over there,
and I presume you know a lot of those are
team sports, but you, I reckon it take me longer
than a year, But I know, let me know, and
let us know. In the old voice mailfunction. Grast New
Zealander of all time. John Too Good, Jesus, he got
obliterated last night. I knew that was going to happen,
Poor Johnny Good. It was just just a victim of circumstance.
(07:28):
He ran into a buzz saw in the first round
in the shape of Dave Dobbin. It's going to be
interesting when a couple of these guys who have put
the smack down in round one then come up against
someone else who did in round one as well.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Yeah, when they come up against Charles Upham, Charles up
and versus Dave Dobbin.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
Yeah, yeah, I don't rack the Dobber's chance here.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
No, Today's one's another controversial one, although I feel like
this is all going to go one way as well.
It is Brenda McCallum versus Martin Crow. Now I was
a little too young to remember Martin Crow. How where
do you rank those two in terms of our best batsman?
Speaker 4 (08:03):
Oh, Martin Crowe is an absolute legend. May have slightly
sullied his career and the end there when he threatened
to burn his blazer and all sorts and started meddling in.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
The politics of New Zealand cricket.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
And so there's a little bit there that makes me
think Bears, I'm a more Bears man.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
But again that is a circumstance and.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
The fact that I feel like I saw, I lived
through Bears, whereas I was very I wasn't even born
half of.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Mart and Crowe's career.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
But you watch Bears take us out of the doldrums
of international cricket.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
Absolutely to the peaks.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Yeah, and I feel like he's a little bit more relatable.
Crushes Darry's bets on horses species, red Wine.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Goes down, still goes and turns out for his local
rugby club.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
Yeah, whereas Martin, you know, got the rug and everything
and just just everything turned a bit odd near the end.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
There glorious photos of.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
Him, though, because I've been putting a lot of the
artwork together for this stuff. And when you look up
photos of Martin Crow he looks resplendent. Sometimes he's got
the fucking Ninja turtle headband on and one.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Of the best batsmen to watch bat He was so
elegant and his timing and everything he was in that team.
He was so far ahead of anyone else in terms
of style and skill.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
Yeah, so that's what made him so great.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
I feel like Bes has a lot of that as well.
He was a very unique player and in terms of
his approach to the game, obviously you see it with
the old bass ball now with England.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
But you know, at the.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Time, as I even remember some yarn about him talking
to the tail end, hasn't been like, look, you're going
to get out in like Ted Bulls, because he's about
are you going to get out for three runs or
are you going to get out for fifteen runs? You know,
that could be the difference for us. That's I think
he said.
Speaker 4 (09:41):
He he was in the he coached the team that
the fucking maner Express Lockie Ferguson was playing for.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
And Lockie he went through like quite a purple.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Patch of runs and he won a couple of games
for Auckland hitting six's.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
In the last over or whatever.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Yeah, and he I mean he used to bat seven
in our last man stands team. He didn't really care,
you know, he was one of those bowlers who there whatever.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
But then when he was with Bears, Bears, like what
are you doing, man, Just fucking hit it, have a crap,
Like just fucking have a go. You've got a good eye,
you play your good golfer. Obviously, it's like Sam with
Trent Bolt. And so then you went, yeah, fuck it,
I got an angle lose and you just started talking it.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
So it kind of empowers people to do to do that.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Oh I've said this before, but I've been in meetings
with Brenda McCallum in my time in the mainstream sports media,
and you walk out of that meeting and you're like,
I'm ready to walk through a wall. Why can't we
be the greatest media organization, not just in New Zealand but.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
In the world. And so you walk out there.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
And then you put out three pieces of dog shirt content.
You're like, oh, that's right. Seven people listen, mainly your family, Yeah,
and filmy sister listening to it and send it to you.
Stopped doing that, Dad, And I don't want to think
about her sitting in the corner of the room while
we do on this podcast. But yeah, so do you think,
(10:58):
how do you think this one's going to go?
Speaker 3 (11:00):
It's going to go, Bears, It's gonna go. It's going
to go bears.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
I think purely because there's going to be some purists too,
Will get fired up about Siman. I think someone's already
commented this is like comparing Beethoven to a rock concert,
and you know, so be it. Do you like rock
or do you like Bethoven? Just let us know that's
not the argument. We're not going to Beethoven versus you know,
the same one they have no.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Wolf gung up on a day, that's right, that's Mozart. Yeah, Mozart,
yea Ludwig van Beethoven.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
It is what it is.
Speaker 4 (11:35):
More of a Motart guy, by the way, Okay he writes,
I'm more a Wagner guy.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Nah.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Mozart used to write symphonies the way that you write emails.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
It just came that easily to him.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
You know, he'd just sit down, he'd write them without
a piece of paper, you know, if his dinner wasn't
really he'd go back up to his room and write
a fucking, you know, symphony while he's wing for Sorry, Carrol.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
Are you you're you're I'm picking You're a bears man.
I'm a bears man. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
I just again didn't really see Martin Crow and from
what I have seen of him, tremendous. But yeah, I
just lived through the Bears the Bears experiment, and I
just love that because cricket is such a traditional sport.
I love when people are like, why are we doing
it that way? And if the answer is because we've
always done it that way, there's always an opportunity there
to change, change, sit up. And I just like the
(12:23):
mentality of like, you'd rather lose trying to go for
a wind than draw trying to go for a drawer. Yeah,
and yeah, look just same as you been able to
sit through and watch the whole thing.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
So it could be an age thing, but yeah, I.
Speaker 4 (12:34):
Think it is, and I know I think we'll see
another divide in the platforms. Yeah, I think we'll see
a massive Bears spike and Instagram and a potential comeback
for MD.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
On the Facebook. Yeah, so get online and have your say.
Just before he to an air break. This story caught
my It's been sent in many a time. Overnight, the
Auckland City Mission has discovered lollies donated by an unknown
member of the public contain potentially lethal levels of metham fetamine.
So they render brand pineapple lollies, which, by the way,
if you come across any of them, but don't fucking
(13:08):
eat them do not eat the Rinder branded lollies. They
were unceealed retail sized packages and send out in food parcels,
So someone gave them to the Aukland City Mission to
send out in their food parcels. Apparently they contained approximately
three grams of metham fetterment each. A common dose is
between ten to twenty five milligrams, so this contains the
lolly's head up to three hundred doses of meth in there.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
What the okay is that a thing meth lollies?
Speaker 4 (13:35):
I don't know, or is this some myth smuggling that
has gone a bit of rye that's what I thought.
Speaker 3 (13:42):
Bring in a container of.
Speaker 4 (13:43):
Lollies and tell the had by the way that you know,
thirty four box out of one thousand, that's the one
full of myth lollies.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Yeah, for you to take the myth out of it.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
And they're trying to get it through to someone an
city mission, and it's.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Come through and the whole lots come through and the
like we've lost box thirty seven, Yeah, and then it's
ended up being donated or whatever it.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
Has to be because nobody is just dishing out that
amount of vitamin is there a Walter White operating in Auckland.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
Imagine also the fact that if you were, you know,
a city mission, you're helping out, you know, the lower classes.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
They've just I've just kicked the habit just got their
first job.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
You know, they've got some houses. I've just all they
want is a bit of food. And then you eat
one of.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Those lollies and they're all spirals out of control.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Oh Jesus.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
So if you come across Render Rinder Render brand pineapple lollies,
donate them or or know what you're doing. Yeah, eat
half and see you feel, but keep you.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
I mean like, you know, got gummies, You've got cannabis
gummy gummies and all those lollies.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Sure, but I've never never heard of a myth medicinal
myth vitamin. All right, let's take a quick break to
check the office for any Render branded pineapple lollies. When
we come back, I've got another NRL scandal. R NRL scandal,
this one though we don't need the alarm for it's
on field. So Kyle Flanagan, who you probably haven't heard of.
(15:17):
He remains adamant that he did not bite Stephen Crichton's nose,
despite last night being handed a for match band for
biting Stephen Crichton's nose. Yeah, you haven't seen the images
of this. So Stephen Crichton tackled him and as he
was on the ground, he sort of smashed his face
into Kyle Flanagan's face.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
It was a bit of like.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
You know, a bit of hair, and his nose ended
up inside Flanagan's mouth. Flanagan has then clearly better on him.
You can see the photo because as Crichton's pulling his
head back, has nose stretches. You know what, I'm with Flanagan.
Speaker 4 (15:52):
If you it's like a dog like you don't or
a lion, you don't put your head or you don't
put your any item in another since mouth.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
I'm with them, you bite down naturally.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Okay, Well there's no place for it in the game,
according to the judiciary.
Speaker 3 (16:07):
Se someone someone stuffs their nose in your mouth. I'm not.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
I mean like I've sucked my fear amount of snot
out of a baby's nose and then sped it out.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
That's the clad. I didn't bite it off though, but.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
You've got four weeks.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
Yeah, have you seen people do that?
Speaker 3 (16:22):
I've never seen that made me suck that. You just
said that, I haven't done it.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
People go, how do you get because because babies can't
blow their own nose. Yeah, so there is a machine
you can get where you just basically put it over
their nose and you and it kind of sucks out
of the snot. And then I've bet someone goes I
do that. I just go in there and to suck
it out of my mouth and sped it out.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
And I was like, it's just a consistency of snot.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
You know, even your own can be quite revolting sometimes anyway,
little one someone else, even.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
Though I digress.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
Anyway, my cousin he played super rugby and he was
a big biter.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Ah, that's big biter.
Speaker 6 (16:58):
And he I asked him why he goes up sometimes
people like a few times things have just got in
his mouth and he just bit them, you know what
I mean, Like if it's a.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Forearm or I think part of it is you think
you're getting away with it.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Well, Also I don't think he was searching it out.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
I don't think he's runing around gangang at.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
But one if an opportunity arose with someone's finger or
arm or whatever ended up in his mouth.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
He was still to bite it off.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Well, this was an interesting one in the NROLW a
few years ago. A dear friend of the ACC Mady Bartlett,
she got done for her biting. But when you watch
the replay, the person was on top of her and
driving their forearm into her mouth. Yeah, there was no
like biting motion or anything. But then when they stood
up there was like, you know, teeth marks in her forearm.
It's like, you, of course, there are you just fucking
(17:45):
shived her in the.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
Yeah, you mind yourself when someone's going for your mouth. Yeah,
and you can't punch them.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
The difference here is he's trying to pull his nose
out of Flannagan's mouth, and the photo is of Flannagin
biting down and you can see his nose stretching in
the and then after he's taking photos with people and
his nose is bright red and there's blood dripping off. Okay,
you're like, if you're trying to if you were a
sport that has issues with its image, that can't be
(18:11):
one of the images that you're putting out there into
the world.
Speaker 4 (18:14):
Is there anything that doesn't happen on a rugby league bield.
There's ass poking, there's squirrel gripping the nose biting.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
Yeah, there's all sorts.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
And I also just think it's the most like, if
you're the kind of guy who bites people's noses, you're
also the kind of guy who denies it straight away.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
So I love that. It is a hard thing tonight.
Speaker 4 (18:32):
I remember there's like it's like the was it Johann
LaRue who bit off Sean Fitzpatrick? Yeah, and he denied
it for a bit and then he admitted it and
keep blood around his mouth and Swan Fitzpatrick's missing the
end of his ear. And then he got quoted at
the end of the match, you know, saying, you know,
what did you do with your figures? I think I
(18:53):
could have bitten his ear right off.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
That's how he defended himself.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Even Mike Tyson immediately was just like, no, I didn't
when he Evander Holyfield's here off and then spat it
into the front row, So.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
What do you mean, no, you didn't? Real how did
he bite that off with a mouthguard?
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Bottom teeth? I suppose same way. I mean Kyle Flanigan
had a mouth guard and yeah, bottom teeth. I guess
AnyWho is the ner on field scandal for this well,
for today, I'm not going to roll that.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Another one popping up tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
If you've seen, by the way the Olympics, all of
the athletes are flying back home again, We've got our
own Jazz Hothams. She was over at sig Festival and
the official like media team there got a photo of
her with a gold medal. Imagine being at like a
massive festival with a gold medal. That'd be pretty sick.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
It would be pretty so it doesn't get better than that.
I wouldn't also trust myself.
Speaker 4 (19:43):
I would wait, I would I would wake out in
the morning and go you know when sometimes you wake
up in the morning and you pet your pockets.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
For your wallet and your phone. Yeah the Australian hucker.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
Yeah, you go there and you go, okay, I've got
I've got my phone and the wallet.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
It can't be much worse than that. And then you
go to your chest and go, fuck my gold midle
gold medal.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Surely you could get a replace where you I don't know.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
I'd take it.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
I think it's for you know, I would rather have
that memory of me being at to get with the Yeah.
Speaker 4 (20:11):
True, there's a there's a great did you on social media?
There's an American athlete who.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Won bronze on the skateboarder.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
He just partied with it for a week and then
it just showed the state of it and it was
just fucked.
Speaker 7 (20:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (20:23):
You can see the like beer stains all over it,
and it was like but I always thought, like, you know,
when you see a bronze like statue or something, they
go like green, They get all this green shit all
over them. I think that's in New Zealand with that
it's that kind of is that brass kind of like
especially around d and moss, mold and guns.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Yeah, I think I need some bit of needs a
better wit and forget. Okay, maybe maybe that's what it is,
but I always thought the bronze sort of deteriorated anywhay,
that's where you use it anyway. Yeah, he was complaining
about the quality of them. Well, should have one gold mane, Yeah,
should have one gold. They seem to be holding up
all right. Pakistani man Nadim he's gone back to Pakistan
to have you seen the videos of him going home? No,
(21:06):
hundreds of thousands of people have greeted him at the airport.
They put on a bus for him, hundreds of thousands
of people up and down the street.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Everywhere he's going, he's being carried.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
The politicians in Pakistan are falling over themselves to give
him money so that they can say, oh, he's you know,
he's my mate, Nadin.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
They're all so stoked with them.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
The Pakistan Prime Minister has announced one hundred and fifty
million rupees which is five hundred and thirty eight thousand US,
at a special ceremony to honor him. He also handed
the keys to a new car which has a special
registration plate of PAK nine two nine seven, which is
how farry through it ninety two meters ninety seven centimeters,
(21:49):
which was an Olympic record.
Speaker 3 (21:51):
He said in the Dems.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Elevated the name of Pakistan worldwide because of his day
and night hard work, pearents, prayers and coaches training.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
See, there's no this is no prize to me.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
That's why I said India should be great at the
javelin because they're good at cricket.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
Oh, to be fair, the Indian dude got the silver medal.
Speaker 4 (22:07):
Oh there you go, so that, Yeah, but they're not
going to take this lying down India. God no bark
no being beaten by Pakistan on the world stage. As
I was saying the other day, you watch the javelin
program go through the roof.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
Yeah, oh, and that's actually that's a big part of
it here, isn't it's because he beat the Indian Yes,
right of course it is. I was like, wow, big,
big javelin nation. I've got two hundred thousand people out
into the streets just to welcome them home.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
Imagine what will happen to both countries javelin programs. He's
going to be kids hiffen broomsticks everywhere. Yeah, I mean
it's quite dangerous. You need a big space for Jefflin.
There's going to be there's going to be some accidents.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
They're going to have pop up you know, the what
are the top shot driving range things that we have
here in New zealk Ye simulators. They let bloody javelin simulators.
I reckon around Pakistan. We have a couple of beers
and go down the javelin simulator on Friday if you
ken it's just go and have a look at the videos,
the photos. It's outrageous, Like the welcome that he's had home.
I don't think we do that kind of thing very
(23:06):
well here in New Zealand. I think that's a sport
to watch in La.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
The javelin yep that's going to blow up, could kick
off World War three, if it hasn't already.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
Tens of thousands of people also packed a stadium in
Botswana to welcome home a sprinter, Tobogo, who was the
two hundred meter gold medalist. He took out Noah Lyles.
Thank god he did too. And yeah again, tens of
thousands of people packing out stadiums.
Speaker 3 (23:28):
What have we done? Nothing?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (23:31):
Maybe maybe the odd hucker at the airport, Yeah, I.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Think they might be a small a small hucker. But
I think they talked about a parade, but they.
Speaker 4 (23:38):
Said it was very difficult because a lot of the
athletes are going to festivals, going on holiday. They're coming
back some dribs and drabs. The sevens team has been
home for two weeks.
Speaker 3 (23:47):
They're all at home now. There's no US starting to
show up in the NRLW. Now.
Speaker 4 (23:51):
I think if we were a young nation who'd never
won a gold medal before, they hadn't won a gold
medal in thirty or forty years.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
Yes, but when you're willing ten of them, it gets
a bit living world for fourth per capita.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
We really won it.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Yeah, yeah, it does get a little bit sort of
boring a little bit. Man Paulson, by the way, he's
been interviewed. Obviously he was the goalkeeper for the Phoenix.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
He got sent over to Bournemouth or got bought by
Bournemouth and then sent down to Auckland FC. And there
was a headline in the papers today. Paulson explains shock
Auckland FC.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
Switch. Didn't read the article, but I just.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Wish that if I had clicked on it, it just
popped up with the image of him just saying fuck
the Phoenix just thrown gasoline on the rivalry. I can't
wait for this. I can't wait for this.
Speaker 4 (24:40):
These two derby's happening both the side of Christmas Home
and yeah there's one down in Wellington and there's one
back in Mount Smart all before Christmas.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
Yeah, right, that's gonna be good. Shit, it's gonna be good.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
We need to Is there a firm already? Is it
like a football hooligan firm set up?
Speaker 4 (24:55):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (24:56):
I hope so, I hope so. But I mean down
in Wellington.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
You just come with their briefcase and there crafty years.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
And I worked.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
This will shock you not at all that I had
a random job in Australia as a postman and one
day wasn't one day my boss, the big Banana they
called him, He asked me to come into his office
just to tell me the story about when he used
to be in a firm in England and he was
getting he got separated from his mates and the opponent
(25:24):
opposing firm was chasing him down the street and he
ran into a hardware store and then he ran down
one of the aisles and found a shovel and picked
up a shovel and was fighting ten other men off
with this shovel, and then went in and supported the
game and they won.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
And then he said, and now you're free to go.
And I was like, that's all that happened.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
He called me and told me that story and then
turned me loose back into the mail sorting room and
I was like, what the fuck was that?
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Was he testing some material?
Speaker 1 (25:49):
I don't know if he was like trying to show
me he was hard or something. I was like, mate,
you sawt male for a living.
Speaker 4 (25:54):
I've had friends who have got a little bit involved
in supporting teams.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
In London and hooliganism, well a little bit.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
I mean they used to get there were cricketers and
they were over there playing a bit of candy cricket
cricket hooligans.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
But they'd go to the football.
Speaker 4 (26:07):
And the other guys they were sharpening coins like pennies
and hiffing them into the opposition, like they'll be behind
the goal and then they'd be right next to them
and they were halfing these sharpened us kind of ten
pea coins into the area, Like.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
What the fucking psychos.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
Yeah, I was just joking about Wellington and their briefcases
and craft beers.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
But I can't wait for them to come up here.
And no, no, no, I want to go and get
a bunch of coins out of the bank.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
Sharpening the market the grinder out well would work best.
You reckon a fitty, the fetty cent. You don't want
to go on a two dollars or one dollar. Well,
he's too small.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
If you remember a few years ago they changed all
the coins to the fifties A tiny Now I'd go
a two dollar coin.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
Really just hitting two bucks about what are you doing.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
That's worth It's worth its American. Yeah, that's how much
I hate the Phoenix now open.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
To open up a Phoenix fan with a two dollar coin.
That's what it's worth to me.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
All Right, we're going to But this is the most
we've talked about soccer in quite a while, despite the
fact that there's none going on.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
I can't wait for it. I'm into it now.
Speaker 4 (27:07):
I'm a I'm a convert purely for the amount of
noise it's going to create. And the Pulson move. Paulson,
great move. I love it. It's a real finger.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
Oh it's a middle finger. Fuck Foix.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
It is Wednesday, he's going to Q talkbacks. It is Wednesday,
so it is time for another half baked sports idea.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Half bait sports.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
I dear not a lot of fan fare around the
NPC starting over the weekend, although I did watch a
couple of games and it was great to have the NPC.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
I don't know, there's something about it.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
I think I may prefer it to Super Rugby, and
I think I think it's just because the the games
are a little bit more free flowing.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
There's more wild shit happening. Also, you know, every team.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
I can't give a fuck about Act Brumbies or the
Reds or the Blues from New South Wales.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
That's a big part of and I think probably the
biggest part is that the Crusaders had to bid the season.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
So that's.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
You've given up on super right element of spat dummy here.
But my idea, because they're talking about that they're not
going to broadcast as many NPC games, they may even
not broadcast any next season, is that what they were saying,
or like one a week or something like that. I
think I'm definitely going to get rid of any of
the heartland stuff. Yeah, well they only did one game
a week for the last few years anyway. But yeah,
So my idea for it is in PC red Zone.
(28:33):
So I don't know if you're not familiar with the
NFL Red Zone, how it works is there's multiple games
being played at the same time on a Sunday over
there in the States, and so what they do is
you can flick on a channel and it's called red Zone,
and they will go between each of the games, like
whoever's most likely to score next, So say there's four
games going on and whoever you know Taylor swift and
(28:55):
them are about to score a touchdown, they'll switch to
that and you get to watch that. Neither score or
they don't, then they'll go to whoever's more likely.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
Is it live or is it like the golf?
Speaker 4 (29:04):
It's live like because with golf, when it's around on,
they cut to you patting, for example, and you drain
a massive part. But then they can cut back to
someone who's just teed off on a path three. But
it would have happened thirty seconds ago.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
You know what I mean? Yeah, is that what happens
in the red zone?
Speaker 4 (29:21):
Because I can imagine they can they see a touchdown
scored and then they go right, but we've got another
red zone happening here.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Let's just well clip that bit and then they could,
but they don't. I think the advantage in golf is
such a slow sport, you can afford to do that
without missing out on primarily bidding odds, which have to
happen live, but no on the red zone.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
One.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
I think why it works for NFL is because you
don't often score a hundred yard touchdown. This is probably
the only part where it may fall apart for NPC.
So how my idea works is that we have n PC.
All of the games are played on a Saturday afternoon,
and they play them all across the afternoon, So I
probably start at about three four in the afternoon through
to ten o'clock at night. And when you sit down
(30:03):
on your Saturday afternoon, you're just watching the NPC. You're
not watching this team with that team. Obviously you've got
your own team, but you're just watching NPC for that night,
and then it just flicks through. Hey, Canterbury's about to school,
will go over here, Taranak is about school.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
We're going to go over to this game now.
Speaker 4 (30:17):
Yeah, there's a lot of a lot of fifty sixty
meter tries in NPC, though, how do you that's good?
Speaker 3 (30:22):
How do you a line break?
Speaker 4 (30:24):
Say a line Brandon en Or has a line break
sixty meters out because it gives it outside to Max Springer,
who scores, Like, how are you gonna? Yeah, because at
twenty two I get it. Twenty two is nine as
the red zone by reggae players. Anyway, Yeah, there's also
the issue around being in the red zone for fifteen
minutes and not scoring a try.
Speaker 3 (30:44):
Meanwhile, Meanwhile, the.
Speaker 4 (30:47):
Tartanaki Wellington game there's been two lengths of the field
tries that she hadn't been able to cut back to.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
You had a charge down the heaven said, yeah, I know,
this is probably where it falls apart, because, yeah, you're
so right.
Speaker 3 (30:59):
Canterbria in the red zone. Are we going to switch
to them now?
Speaker 1 (31:01):
It's just fifteen fifteen consecutive phases and then a knock
on five scrum reseets and you've missed it tries down
the other end. Yeah, it could be where it falls apart,
but I just feel like that gets you stuck.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
To your couch for that six hour stretch.
Speaker 4 (31:13):
I can there's merit in it, but it might have
to go the gold route. You might have to have
a production room bunker situation where you're clipping.
Speaker 3 (31:22):
They're as live as they can be.
Speaker 4 (31:24):
Yeah, but if something happens in another game, like a
length of the field try you clip that and when
the red zone finishes with the Canterbury Tartanaki game, you
can flip to the Tasman marco versus Tago one where
there's the length of the field and then go back
to a you know what I mean, Like if any
breakouts you clip and put in between other genuine red zones.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
During the Olympics, I was doing the fourth screen thing
on Sky.
Speaker 3 (31:47):
Have you tried that?
Speaker 4 (31:48):
Nah?
Speaker 3 (31:49):
Nah? So you can.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
You know, they've got so many different channels, particularly across
the Olympics. You can click whatever configuration you want, so
you can have picture in pictures, so you've got your
Olympics and then your rugby league game in the corner.
We could do side by side. You can do up
to four different sports.
Speaker 4 (32:03):
You did that on the skygo on the skysport now app.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
I don't think you can do it if you're casting
to your TV, but I was doing it on my laptop.
Speaker 3 (32:12):
But it was great. You could watch Also.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
The only problem was you couldn't flick if you know,
Lisa Carrington's about to go. You couldn't all of a
sudden make that the bug one. You had to reconfigure them.
I feel like that's probably how it would work. You'd
have like four screens going and then this one becomes
big when they're about to score. I don't know, I
just feel like it would make it. Now, obviously it
doesn't solve the problem that it still costs a shipload
to broadcast all of these games.
Speaker 3 (32:34):
You kind of have to have cruise at every single one.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
Yeah, that hasn't fixed that problem at all, but I
do think more people would watch it. Yeah, but yeah,
that's my half pack sports idea for a Wednesday.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
It's in PC. We've had worse.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
Let's yeah, last week, I think the Civil War. Let's
take a quick break and come back with yours please.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
Yours please? Brought you by leader.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
Threw them to get through today. First caller, yours please.
Speaker 7 (33:05):
I've had a question on my mind for the last
couple of weeks and says greatest New Zealander debate started.
Who the fuck is Frosty Boy? Gulane keeps talking about
him like he's some national icon, a treasure that is
known by children and adults alike across the land. I've
never heard of the guy Jesus but the boomer Now
(33:25):
Glane getting up here?
Speaker 4 (33:27):
Who wrote ow Frosty Boy, Frosty Boy.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
I'm glad someone else. I just presumed everyone else knew
who Frosty Boy was and I didn't.
Speaker 4 (33:36):
I'm I'm looking for some sport out here. Surely people
know who Frosty Boy.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
Is, well, sending in a voicemail view if you know
Frosty Boy. By the sounds of it, he wouldn't have
beaten mister Whippie anyway, he wouldn't. He means more and
more people than Frosty Boy.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
He does. Another caller here, yours?
Speaker 8 (33:57):
What about if the head are all at the end?
Imps that the hosting country could make up any event
that they liked and it only ever happens once, and
the French could have had a climate Eiffel Tower competition.
Speaker 2 (34:13):
I measine that they could make.
Speaker 8 (34:15):
It safe and ship la what could they have a
drive by shooting a safe dry by shooting competition?
Speaker 2 (34:24):
Yours? Please?
Speaker 4 (34:26):
That that I had a vision in my mind of that.
Talk back yours please. Walking down a dark corridor at
a hospital, did you hear that, clop.
Speaker 1 (34:36):
I was picturing walking around the changing hids in your
rugby boots.
Speaker 4 (34:40):
I thought it was a kind of a more of
a high a kind of a heeled dress choe and
a lino floor in a hospital. Or but in the
basement of the hospital where they keep all the bodies.
Speaker 3 (34:50):
And stuff, there was the lights off.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
Fuck hundred percent lights off.
Speaker 3 (34:53):
What would we have in New Zealand, I guess ram rating.
Speaker 4 (34:56):
Yeah, it would be would be pretty mean, and not
just your typical ram rate. I'm talking like a mall
ram raid, like through the front doors of a malle,
Michael Hell, getting the car sideways at the mall, knocking
over the mister Mint and then hitting jewelry stores, maybe
a couple of clothing stores, and then out the front
doors again.
Speaker 3 (35:11):
That's next level. Yeah, I think. So.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
You know what a great way to showcase some of
the beautiful malls that we have around our country. Lynn
Moore as well, Yeah, Glenfield Moore was the Racket and
Mall Milford Mall. If you can ram rate the upstairs
of the Ricket and Mall, hats off to you.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
Well, that's part of the challenge creativity. Yeah, and that's.
Speaker 4 (35:28):
Where you bring your your speed climbers in because you
come through the front doors and you spend seeing the
speed climbers up to the second floor.
Speaker 1 (35:34):
Yes, like this athlete actually competed at the speed climbing
at the last Olympics, but he's converted now to ram
rating just for just for the New zeal Ones siren battles,
you get people.
Speaker 3 (35:44):
Siren pat would be funny.
Speaker 4 (35:47):
Imagine the rest of the world turning up going what
fuck is this a bunch of dudes on rally twenties.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
Playing finger boys with.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
The stolen tenoise from sports grounds and primary.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
Local school girl no base, Yeah, high pitched back and
binger boys. I think we'd take that one out.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
I think we would demolish other countries that the Siren battles,
Sirron Beatles and ram rods a rerickon I go to
oh gun boats throw Yeah, but la, what would they do? Well,
Like you said drive bys, they could have some sort
of like rap beef, you know, like dis tracks, release
disk tracks. Kendrick Lamar could be and would be the
hot short favorite for gold Midle. I don't really know
(36:34):
what else is. Who can grow the strongest strain of weed?
That would be good. Imagine the judging for that weeks
It'll be it's basically like how quickly can you green
out Snoop Dog. They start the clock from the moment
he takes the first drag and whatever your strain is,
and by the time he's screened out, it's like thirteen minutes.
Speaker 4 (36:54):
It could be a stunt Hollywood star, Yeah, so you
probably could pull off the best stunt.
Speaker 1 (36:59):
Yeah, I was thinking like a forty hour film festival.
It's a good idea. Yeah, see, you got forty hours
to make a video and then they get that's a
great idea. Yeah, maybe they get played at the closing
ceremony or something. What do your film festival? All right,
well the last call here you're suppose.
Speaker 3 (37:14):
Yeah, no good idea.
Speaker 7 (37:15):
Lads, just wondering when did you start posting these videos
on YouTube?
Speaker 1 (37:18):
I had no clue.
Speaker 3 (37:19):
I mean, you probably don't need to four views in
the last hour.
Speaker 1 (37:24):
That's pretty disappointing, by the way, Fox Up Cannibry.
Speaker 4 (37:29):
Yeah, well look, I mean they all we do is
we video this anyway, so we just check it on
YouTube as well. I mean, in fact, there's only four
people watching it. That's four people that weren't.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Watching it before. Well, I mean, I don't think we've
ever said on this podcast that it's actually up on YouTube,
and now we have, but only right at the end
of the episode where no idea say most people have
turned off by now, yeah, we'll shout out to all
those YouTubers.
Speaker 3 (37:48):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Well, maybe if another one is goes and views it,
then we'll be at five and at that point we
can really start making the big dark. Yeah, what's the
tipping point seven? Oh to be Yeah, it'll be around
probably double digits. Oh yeah, we'll get into that real
YouTube money.
Speaker 3 (38:03):
Yeah bro.
Speaker 1 (38:04):
Yeah, so Stephen Sheer, Yeah, if each of the five
people that listen to this can tell twenty people to
go and watch it, you know, we're at one hundred.
Speaker 3 (38:11):
Watch that mister beast coming for you, Coming for your beastie. Yeah, brilliant.
All right, So I hope you've enjoyed this podcast.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
Go back and watch it again if you did, Yeah,
and otherwise, we'll see you tomorrow for a Thursday episode
