Speaker 1 (00:00):
Live for the Export Beer Auden's Studio and brought to you,
as always by Export Ultra the Beer four. Here this
is the Agenda Podcast for Wednesday The Checksa's Phone, twentieth
of November.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
The Agenda Podcast, the home of Sporting Nonsense and clap Trap,
brought to you by Next Sport, a Vulture.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
And a big Kodo. To matd Heath, Good morning, yet A.
How are you very well? Thank you? What is firing
up the listeners of ZIB this week?
Speaker 1 (00:27):
Well?
Speaker 4 (00:27):
I was asking the question yesterday and you might be
able to answer this. What why can't I? Yeah, people
people were really generous to you then they were. That
was the lower end of what people were predicting. Yeah,
but you know eight hundred and eighty teen eighty ha
bigs my night's cot.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
That fired up the phones? Yeah, I know, what were
the what were they?
Speaker 4 (00:50):
I was just asking this question and I don't yesterday
I can't remember anything, but I was talking about a
kotahi and why can't they work twenty four hours a day?
Speaker 3 (01:01):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (01:01):
Why can't you have three shifts? And no one could
give me an answer.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Well, mins run twenty four hours a day? Yeah, yeah,
if there's gold to be extracted out of the mountain.
You'll figure it out pretty quick, won't you it.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
Yeah, because you see all those people and I think
it's cool how they've got their beekeeper hats on now
the reflective beekie behaf Yeah, but it's horrible working in
the middle of the day in summer. Yeah, like that
is brutal. Yeah, so you'd want a rotation.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
Yeah, that's what I think.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
Working even two shifts, you know.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Too, twelve hour shifts, like I said, mines they fed
this out age. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Yeah, it just seems you'd get it, you'd get it done. Yeah,
you'd get get it, get it done.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Anyone who needs to get through a mountain of work
and a short space of time runs that way.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Yeah. They do two days shifts, two nights shifts, four
days off.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
That's how almost every mind the fonterra plants will run
that way.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
I worked to shift work for a long time and
it does. It turns you into it a very strange person.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
What takes years off your life? It does, Yeah, because.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
You can't sleep, so you get home and then everyone
in your flat's getting up like this blows.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
This sucks. It actually does. Yeah, you have to have
a cave.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
If you're going to work shift work, you need to
live in a cave that you can go back to.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
I worked on a fund that did I want to say,
fourteen or sixteen hour milking, So we'd milk it like
six in the morning, then like eight o'clock at night,
and then the next day at lunchtime. And that was
because there were so many cows and not enough grass,
so they needed longer between milkings. So it's basically three
milkings every two day. Very confusing schedule and fuck it
(02:27):
sucked because if you made it on the purse, I'm
not finishing work till at midnight one in the morning. Yeah,
So then you show up, everyone's written off. Or I
finish it about three or four in the afternoon. Great,
we were on it. I'm milking again tomorrow morning.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
Yeah. So it's like, yeah, it kills you the shift work. Yeah.
Having said that we need the roads.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
Wick, Yeah, when you just get it done, get it done.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
And that brings me to regurgitating some of the content
I used this morning on the Jerry Knee Matt Show
on This Morning obviously yesterday, and you know, in the
lead up to it, we saw the power of a
hicuin terms of getting your opinions out there, keep putting
something to the forefront of everyone's mind. What everyday things
that pass you off so much that you were just
(03:07):
about start a recoy.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
For jeez, that's a really good question.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
So I went with passwords for like internet accounts. I
fucking hate them. I don't want them. Every time I
log in, I can't I forget the password and reset
your password? Sendaiamail adress, what's my fucking password from email adress?
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Can't do that?
Speaker 4 (03:24):
Yeah, And then then they go that that password has
been used too many times, you can't use that.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
But that's my password. I use it on everything.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
That's all I've got, and I've got nothing like I've
got more my bank account. Sure, lock that up. Yeah,
I saw it in. My mate fell about this and
were and he was talking about whether it has Our
partners at the time found got hacked into our emails
or our phones, and yeah, we think that. We were
saying that'd be probably break up with us for how
boring our chatters for Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
One hundred percent, my miss as we too. God, that's
what you guys talk about. There's no secrets it's just pathetic.
Three fantasy teams, no side checks. You're a loser. I
can't be with a loser.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
I remember once a girlfriend came home and found me
and my mates and we'd set up a D and
D board, and we were all in costumes and we
had we had candles, and we'd been playing, and two
of our girlfriends came home. Yeah, and I reckon they
would have rather caught us cheating. I reckon they would
rather caught us and Beard with other women than what
they saw that day, cloaks and goods.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
I've always and we'll talk about fantasy sports very shortly,
but I've always had this theory that no man with
more than one fantasy team is cheating on his message.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
That's too much admind, it's too much to keep track of.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
I told that's Laura McGoldrick Wander and she goes, no,
they're not cheating, because no girl wants to be with
a guy.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
With more than one fantasy team.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
Tell you what in our fantasy team, in our fantasy league,
Finkle Clutcher, It's been a lot of controversy on the
commissioner of the league, and I've been accused of cheating
and unfairly, and there's been accusations of a smoking gun.
There's no evidence been put apart put across and everyone
should know by the fact I couldn't pause the draft
that I wouldn't know how to cheat?
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Can you cheat? I actually want to know.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Can can someone maybe someone on a US please can
tell me how if you're in an NFL fantasy league
as the commissioner, you could cheat.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
What's in the back end that I could do? I
don't know.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Could I cancel people's waivers that.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
Would probably reverse the waiver order or something like that.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
You can veto trades and things like that, but they
haven't meant to any of those up.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Just back the truck up a little bit.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
There have been allegations came into our group chat just
yesterday actually from one member Phil Yeah, who is alleging
that Cass has told him, Yeah, that there is a
smoking gun that he knows you've been cheating as a
commissioner of our league and he has a smoking gun,
and Phil brought that to the group chat. First, first
(05:47):
of all, I didn't feel like that was Phil's place
to bring this group chat. If Cass has the smoking
gunring it out, Bring it out, Bring it out. But
also he needs to address that in the group chat.
So then Phil posts a screenshot a text conversation that
he's had with Cass and CAAs says, I have I
have a smoking gun that proofs I'll try and find
(06:09):
it verbatim because it's quite funny. I don't want to
alarm you, but Mad is using his position as commissioner
in fantasy football to cheat. And then Phil replied said,
really got proof? Cass said I have massive proof, a
smoking gun, if you will, and that's where the conversation ended.
So now this has since shock waves through a fantasy league.
Well what is the smoking gun? What could it possibly be?
Speaker 4 (06:31):
I put two poles into the group chat. One wise,
do you still basically have support? And do you support
the commissioner?
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (06:40):
No?
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Or maybe?
Speaker 4 (06:41):
And should put up shut up around the smoking gun?
Both came back up in my favor. He's been told
to put up a shut up. Well, you did vote
heavily in your own favor in both just that.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
And that pole.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
You can vote as many times as you want, and.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Which lends a bit of credits to the smoking gun
there if you're willing to cheat on the pole in the.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
As a commissioner and to try and gain the support
back of the team under this, you know, pretty I
actually need the Whitewash team and actually helped me out
there that they said but I was thinking about and
that she was a suggestion that you came through around
some novelty rounds.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Yes, some novelty weeks.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
So this week I'm playing Tom Harper. Yeah, neither of
our we're both of our defenses are on a by round.
So I've proposed the butt naked round where we play
with no defense.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
So going forward in your fantasy leagues, people that are
in them that you need to schedule like like one
other butt naked pants down? What if you want to
call it but one week where no one has their defense?
And I mean that's exciting, isn't it. It mixes it up,
it is, and I guess you sort of need to
randomly generate it are otherwise people would could plan around that. Yeah,
(07:51):
but I don't know if you could, But then what
would you be? I mean, this is NFL, But what
would you call it if you didn't have the quarterback?
So we have another round and no quarterback because I
I've I had an injury that I was messed and
I had one round with no quarterback and I still won.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
It was against the odds.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
But I reckon that's like a headless Yeah, headless the
behitting round.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
I want it to sound ruder than that that blindfolded
cock out, but that doesn't work.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
But they are there are the eyes of the team.
They are the driver BELLI driverless car. Yeah, maybe best,
but I'll quite like that idea of of sort of
novelty rounds a fantasy league. What about you want something
a bit more egregious than blindfolded? What about the nine
to eleven round where you get to hijack your other
player's team and you get to pick one position for them. Shit,
(08:38):
so you go on high check round? Yeah you wow,
one position. You're allowed to change one player, not the
whole team.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
I don't they Oh yeah yeah that's that's bloody great.
You can change the quarterback out. Yeah wow, that would
be good.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
Yeah, the hijack round nine to eleven, you.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Do it on September ely hijack round. You were allowed and.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
You just go through and you announceside you have to
stand down. Yeah your QB.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Yes, maybe it's the what's his name, Captain Phillips.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
The Yeah, that's right, I'm the captain now shit.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
Yeah, yeah, I reckon. That's good.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
There'll be some creative ways that people have played their
fantasy these because I know a lot of dudes take
it real seriously. Yeah, yeah, I love the draft at
someone's house. It's some dudes will do like a paper
draft where they sit there and write out their picks
manually and then and put it into the computer.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
Well, because I've had quite a good round, I think
I'm still the head of the competition, which is why
there's these allegations against me. Against me, but I had
the absolute shitter of the draft, like everything went wrong
for me, and you know, I was in a state
of absolute depression after it, and it's been going really well,
and it just shows how little I know.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
I had the opposite, which again shows the exact same thing.
For two years running now, I have been forecast and
never lose a game.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
I've never in fantasy football.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Fantasy football has never predicted that I was ever going
to lose a game. Yeah, and yet I think I
came almost dead last last year. Yeah, and I'm eating
shit this year. Yeah. Anyway, AnyWho, I've got a chicking
fink called Clutcher.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Yeah. If I'm still at the top, Yeah, so I'm
going shit.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
The only problem with the butt naked round is that's
going to fick my pointstuff later on in the season.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
Yea by much anyway.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
All right, let's take a quick break and we'll come back.
I have got a story that we talked about yesterday.
There's been a development. I don't know if you know
the story, so I'll save it for after the break.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Yeah, I'm still number one.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
We selling our nineteen ninety eight Ford falcon Ute exclusively
on Auto Trader matteath As you know by now, all
proceeds are going to November INSI, and you can bid
on this bad boy right now. It has just ticked
over twelve thousand dollars at the moment, but it's only
the twentieth of November and it goes to the end
of the month if.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
You place the winning bid.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
As we treat, We've loaded the glove box with a
thousand dollars worth of petrol vouchers, one thousand dollars worth
of grocery vouchers, and iPhone sixteen pro a Marshall Amp
beer fridge and a Makita job site radio. All that

Speaker 1 (11:04):
And to get betting, you can text ute to three
two three six and follow the link to the auto
trader listening while they're telling you yelling about your car.
I have been made aware of a story that involves
the White Stripes and Kane Williams. And if you heard
this story, no, I told you yesterday on the podcast,
So I'll fast forward it. The White Strips Elephant album
(11:24):
which has that's the one with seven Nation Army on it.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Ye great album.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Jack White is sitting on the cover. He is holding
a cricket bat. The cricket bat was left in the
studio by man by the name of John Baker. Are
you familiar with John John Bah? He is cousins with
Kane Williamson. It is Kane Williamson's bat that's on the
cover of the Elephant album.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
Holy shit, Yeah, because John Baker used to he worked
with the White Stripes for a long time.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Yes, wow, And you would come across him, he said, yeah, yeah,
and I'm quite welly. He books a lot of gigs.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Ye. Wow. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
So Caane Williamson's bat is on the cover of the
White Stripes album.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
This is blown my mind. Wow. I've talked about it
into every microphone I've been in front of. The last
that is very very cool.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
Is vain added that how come that has only rerisen
to the top now.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Well, the only reason we found out I currently say
exactly how but we were by putting a promo together
for summer and basically this little bit of trivia was
in there and we looked at him.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
We're like, no, that's not right. We did the research.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
John Backer had written the article last year explaining how
the whole thing came to be.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
Wow, a cook a Borough Fighter it is. That's so
freaking cool.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
It's also I never noticed he had a Cu cricket
mat and I've covered that album neither.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
So it's supposed to signify the tusk of the elephant,
and that's where he's sitting and he's holding the tusk.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
Yeah, it's washed out, so it's white.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
You can't see what's on it, but it is a
cook a Barrough fighter and we know that because the
bat still exists.
Speaker 4 (12:48):
Government tasted key. We came Williamson. Yeah, he's got his
arms and his influenced extends a long way.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Oh my god. Anyway, Yes, like I said, it's Cook
a Borough fighter.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
The reason I know that is because the bat still
exists and I saw a photo of it in the
exact same article I read. The article came out last year.
That's because the person who has it took a photo
of it. The person who has it lives not far
from here. It is at a place called Daddy Long Legs,
which I believe is a record store slash music venue
out west in TISUDANGI here in Auckland, and I reckon
(13:20):
when need to launch a campaign to go and get
that bat?
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Yeah, I don't know what get that bat? Like an
illegal raid or like or you're going to reach out first.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
I think we reach out first.
Speaker 4 (13:33):
But if it doesn't come yeah yeah yeah, if it doesn't,
we don't have a choice.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Well yeah, I would hate for my hand to be forced.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
So if you're listening, yeah, you come That bat can
come quietly, yeah, or it can come hard. You can
come home. There's two ways we can do this.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
What would that bat be worth? Now?
Speaker 4 (13:50):
I mean the bat once belonged to Caine Williamson that
was on the cover of The White Strip's Elephant album,
featuring the biggest sports song of all time one. Yes,
that'd be a pretty penny. There would be a pretty penny.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
Yeah. And the irony is it's us.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
We are driving like we're giving it the most exposure
of anyone we are working.
Speaker 4 (14:09):
We need to run it down before we make an offer.
It's actually with nothing.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
And I actually heard it wasn't They actually the same
bet and so yeah, fifty bucks Williams had never saw it.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
So yeah, well, lowball the fuck out.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (14:18):
My mate's dad went to prison for this for what
low balling a piece of artwork that it knew was
worth a lot more.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Really went to prison for it.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Yeah, aggressive some sporting news that's not related to stealing
pieces of sports memorabilia. The Black Clash is going to
be jan seventeenth, which is actually not that far and
they've just announced the wild card four team cricket is
going to be Sean Johnson.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
I've got a story about Sean Johnson. Do you want
to hear it? That I heard the other day? Absolutely so.
Speaker 4 (14:47):
I was talking to one of Coldplay's management right, and
he was saying to me, I said, have your time
been is good yet? He goes, I went to we
had the raft party last night and a bunch of
people came and I was talking to this guy. He
is a great guy, like really really good looking, good
looking guy.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
Great chat.
Speaker 4 (15:06):
Talked to him for ages and he asked me everything
about cold Play, everything about the tour, everything about life.
And at the end I found out it was Sean
Johnson from someone else, So Shawney Jay this whole chat
about someone else's life, some manager and their life, and
didn't at any point bring that up that he was
Sean Johnson.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Was it an Englishman?
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Yeah, he was talking to so he may not have
known who obviously didn't he didn't know who Sean Johnson
was Johnson was.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
But then he went back over and he said, I
hear that you're you're Sean Johnson. Everyone everyone's very excited
that you hear. And he goes, oh, yeah, yeah, and
he goes and he goes hi, and then and then
he said.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
What he mean up to?
Speaker 4 (15:47):
He goes, I retired, and then I am retired, and
then I retired again.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
She goes, Okay, it's been frantic, I mean on that like,
when you get to a point like Sewan Johnson, everyone
must talk to Sean Johnson about sew john Sewn Johnson.
It must get so annoying.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
Yeah, so it'd be quite nice, it must be quite efficiently.
He's probably why I gave this British guy so much time.
He's like, this is the only guy in this party
that's not going to punish me about me. Yeah, so,
and so I can actually just ask them some questions
about you know, yeah, and if you got into a
cold Play party, you're probably interested in cold Play?
Speaker 1 (16:20):
Yeah, oh definitely. And you know you would have watched
the gurgon. Yeah, how the fun did they do that?
Speaker 3 (16:24):
Yeah? Yeah, yeah, that's right.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
So talking to one of the guys that brings the
whole thing together would probably be quite interesting for you.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
How did the wristbands know where they are? Light up?
And blah blah blah? And the beach bulls who's pump
and those?
Speaker 1 (16:35):
And in the middle of all that, he would have
been well within his right And so the wristbands and
the beach balls sweet And did you see my pastor
Dellen moatin is Lisniar and my last year.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Again, last touch the student? Okay, sweet.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Yeah, and just Chris Martin, so he's Yeah.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
If I was Shawn Johnson, then it would be raised
pretty quickly, pretty early on in the conversation. Yeah, that's right, Yeah,
that would My career would come up reason me quickly.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
The thing I respect the most of it. Stephen Donald,
I've never heard him bring that up. I've never heard
him bring that kick up.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
And if I was Stephen Donald, yeah, every available opportunity, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:10):
I'll be like, hey, know, set You'm the guy with
the two thousand and eleven ruby.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
I'm twenty eleven rugby will cup hero.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Yeah, Stephen Beaver, I'm john Who are you?
Speaker 3 (17:23):
Or here's a DVD of that movie about that. Yeah,
So yeah, Sewan John's would have been well within his rights. Anyway.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
He is going to be playing cricket at the Black Clash,
and this is he was interviewed about it.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
He said he's never.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Played cricket really like backyard cricket, that kind of thing,
but he never played it competitively through high school or
anything like that. And that is not what team cricket needs.
As as we know, you and I have played in
a lot of games, as you know, untrained, but we're
not competitive cricket players.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
And the hardest part about cricket is.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Not the batting. It's not the bowling, it's the fielding. Fielding,
And when you're out of neck, it's standing around for
hours then sprint stop, jump up, throw as hard as
you can, sprint back, stop, stand for another half hour. Yeah,
and that destroys an aging man's body.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
And so what they need team cricket. They do not
need bowlers. They don't need batters. They need one whip
it out in the field who can still chase a
ball down.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Yeah. That's the value he's going to bring one hundred percent.
The other part is how.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Cool is it going to be watching Sean Johnson bowl
at Chris Gale.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
That's the value of the Black Clash.
Speaker 4 (18:30):
I can imagine Sean Johnson will go to the nets
and he'll rustle up a decent delivery.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
I reckon occurred. Yeah. Yeah, he is an outstanding neck. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
And that's the thing those people that are genetically disposed
to being great at sport, genetically disposed to being great
at great most sports.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
He'll figure it out. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
And plus, like you were just saying before, he does
Chris Martin pretty well so I Chris gave a few
bowling zopes.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Might not be a great better.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
All right, let us take a quick break. Oh just
before we do, though, this is something I want to
address with you. It's been stuck in my crawl for
a couple of days now.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
In light of the.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
HHM n Z Manu and Nui running aground in the
reef and some more. There was it uncouth then for
the All Whites to thump some more eight mel and
a World Cup qualifier. Should we have let them have
that one?
Speaker 4 (19:23):
Yeah, that's football diplomacy right there.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
That could be a good taken. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (19:28):
Disgusting, Yeah, an insult to a nation.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
We could have extended an olive branch, and no, we
rubbed their face and the faces into it.
Speaker 4 (19:36):
I was down at talking at an Air Force bace
and I talked to some of the pilots the other day.
Gilian's probably brought this up, and I just sort of
been laughing about that, that whole sinking. But then talking
to the guys that flew down and the hurt to
help out, They're like that was freaking hairy. Really when
they were getting off their boat as it's sinking at night,
(19:56):
onto when you're on a reef.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
We were, well, I just imagine it was sort of
just I got off.
Speaker 4 (20:00):
It was nice, it was and then it went down,
but it was like it was hairy.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
It would be, I guess at least for them. They
are in a nice enough climate to where it's reef.
They weren't in the Bearing Sea looking for Alaskan crabs.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
As long as it doesn't spew shit everywhere, it's going
to be quite cool because you'll go to someone and
you'll be like you hope be able to see it
under the water. Yeah, you know, I was talking to
a diver, like an army diver the other day, and
he was saying that he managed to go down and
dive down and lie in his old when they sunk
one of our old ships scanner scuttled it. Yeah, he
(20:35):
went down as a diver and into the water and
got into the ship and lay down in his old
bunk bed that he'd been sleeping and back in the
day when he was involved.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (20:43):
Right, Well, actually, PFA, I was talking to a guy
who knew a guy who knew a guy. It's close
enough so you can so it'd be pretty cool, Like
you're be able to go and dive down and look
around it.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
That'd be pretty cool lieing your bunk bed one last time?
Did he do anything else that in that bunk bed
that he might have done.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
That one one last time?
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Yes, that's one last time for old time sake.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
So maybe it'll eventually help the destroying our economy, losing
one hundred and thirty million dollar boat, but maybe eventually
helped this someone economy.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Yeah, destroying their ecology, but their economy. Yeah, sings roundabacks.
All right, let's take quick break. We'll come back with
yours please.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Yours please? Brought you by leader Home of the Lap.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
About four of them to get through today. First call
it yours please.
Speaker 5 (21:36):
Yeah, Lad's, I think you're really missing a trick on
this camel costume idea. I've done the homework for you.
So if you jump on Elie Barber you can get
an inflatable camel my suggestion. Acc Bolk orders a ton
of those in, sell them off the website, and we
turn day two, the Sunday of the Hamilton Test and
(21:58):
the Camel Day, to Tim southing thoughts.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Yeah, I like this.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
So we are looking for a way to celebrate Tim
Southy's last ever game. It's in Hamilton, it's the Test match,
third Test match against England, yep. And the initial idea
was get a camel in there. We had a thought,
we had a lot of thoughts around how do we
get a camel into the grounds. It's then become apparent
that there actually are no camels in New Zealand.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
There's none at all.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
There's none that none that my missus is aware of,
and she works in the industry. Yeah, so I like
the idea of do we dress up or do we
sell some sort of merch, some sort of camel merch.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Yeah, I don't mind. Day two.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
My ideal would be the holy Grail would be Day five,
which is Wednesday hump day for the sixty camel.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
Get your humps out for the sixy camel. Oh that's
not bad, or.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
Yeah, you used to get you humps out like your
lovely lady humps, your hum bloody headphones, your humps, your heart,
your lovely lady humps.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
You're lovely lady humps, that's right, or whatever humps you
have available to What.
Speaker 4 (23:04):
About if everyone because you know you can get thrown
out for smoking, right, some of the all they SAIDs
you can't. You can get one quote on the vape,
but you're thrown out immediately for smoking. Right, Yeah, everyone
brings in slides in soft back camel in the back pocket.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
And and then just on queue at a particular moment,
you get five thousand people to light up.
Speaker 3 (23:28):
Light up a dart, light up a dart. Men want children.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
For the for the sixy camel, and unity you have
a sexy camel for the sixy camel. I mean it
might not work because people were just like, why are
they smoking? And then there's another step before you realize
that they're smoking camels, and someone will turn up with
a you know, b an h special filter and it
will ruin the whole thing.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
The English commentators will ask Smithy what the folks are on,
and you're like, okay, so there's these kids.
Speaker 4 (23:53):
And they call the sixy camel and there's also a
brand of cigarettes called Camels, and yeah, yeah, yeah, it's
too it's probably probably slightly too convolent.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
That's why I've got an eight year old smoking a
Darry on the bound.
Speaker 4 (24:08):
Why is that eight year old smoking a Darry?
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Well?
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Funny, Yeah, some think getting Lovely Lady humps out as
much better, lovely lady humps. Yeah, I don't mind that
that's out for Sally.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (24:20):
I mean there's probably been a few out from over
the years.
Speaker 3 (24:23):
I imagine there would have been in an amateur and
a professional manner. In a professional capacity.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
That's out in a professional capacity, not cually you're sports.
Speaker 6 (24:33):
Yeah, hey colours, Hey is it time for the in
an hour to go full? NFL it's been the league
to twenty teams have two conferences of ten teams, but
those conferences in two with two divisions, five teams per division.
The winner of each division gets into the playoffs four
wild cards and can go hand on it. That brings
(24:56):
he can have a draft and all that kind of
stuff too, just more shait to talk about. Always thought.
Speaker 4 (25:02):
Yeah, well, and then you have then the Grand Final
becomes like the super Bowl where you have the winner
of each each league going head to head.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
I think how you would do it would be a
Sydney division and then everyone else's division. Yeah, because there's
so many Sydney teams. I think it might actually be
eight yeah yeah, and then it'd be us the two
Brisbane teams, North Queensland.
Speaker 3 (25:23):
Canberra, Yeah, Newcastle. Yeah, I think it work.
Speaker 4 (25:27):
I mean, it gets It means that the Kaleways don't
get to go over and play, and you know, like
you know, we don't get to come and play, and
the Warriors don't get to come and play in Sydney.
Yeah until the end bond Oh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
But it would, it could shorten the It make every
game a little bit more exciting. That's the cool part
about the NFL. Every game feels like it matters.
Speaker 3 (25:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
Well, you know, and you know all that in America
it's all divided up. So you're generally playing the same teams,
yeah a lot, especially in baseball.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
You know, you're playing so then you've got a rivalry. Yeah,
because so.
Speaker 4 (25:55):
You have you know, you play the same teams multiple
times in a season.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
Yeah, because I wouldn't. I couldn't tell you who the
Warriors rivals are. I mean, yeah, you want to say
the Storm, I don't know. I guess the thing is
we haven't beaten many of these teams through often hard
to have a rivalry when you get your.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
Yeah, but that but that was actually a pretty freaking
cool idea. Yeah, because it is good to play the
teams multiple times, you know, and you see where you
sit in the season.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Yeah, storylines start to emerge. Two dudes.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
Last game there was a bit of a bit of
birth of discontent but a biff, Yeah, it's a really
good idea.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Such and such said this after the game and an interview,
and now they're going to play each other.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
I wonder if you could do that with n PC.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
Divisions, that might be a way to do it.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
North Island South Island divisions might be thinking also maybe
that could be the answer for Super Rugby as well,
because the you know, we need Australia, yeah, we need
I reckon, we need South Africa back. Yeah, but maybe
if we just played our own divisions, yeah, and then
we linked up every now and there.
Speaker 4 (26:56):
Well that's why I was thinking for a while, like
a Champions League would be quite good. We play and
then and then you know, even if it wasn't maybe
if it was just number one, So then you have
a try series at the at the end of the
winning club goes off and plays the wing in Australian
club plays the winning South African club.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
Yeah, or even top two and you've got a six
way yeah, six way probably series. So we've sent our
champions and it's bluesing the because because it's not not
not bad in New Zealand. If we play I mean
I know the players, so they get smashed up a
lot more when they play. The kiwis over and every
New Zealand is over and over again. But you don't
care if if the Blues play Crusaders four times in
(27:37):
a season, I'd love it. You'd love it, yeah, wouldn't you?
And then and then you then the best two teams
go over and play however, and then but because the
other part of that is if you're a Highlanders fan,
you can get them behind What if a team we
send over because they're now our champion, Yeah, yeah exactly,
and so you can yeah, you could throw it well
and behind that.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
Actually that is yeah.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
And then then it's then you know it's working or something,
because you know, when it was the Super Rugby, it
was like I loved it. It was good, it just
needed one more step. They actually fucked up because they
didn't have a final, but that would have been amazing.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Yeah, that's why the Blues won that Asterix title. Yeah yeah,
Badah played the Crusaders and Cowards.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
Yeah, but if you had a if you had that,
and then it went onto something else.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Yes, then that would be amazing.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Because that's what made Super Rugby so interesting to watch us.
You knew all of the players for all of the teams,
so always playing your team.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
Yeah, so the storylines developed, players developed. Yeah, at the moment,
it's just too much to keep track of.
Speaker 4 (28:33):
Yeah, and pack up for all blacks and then and
that would be bloody great. And then we go over
and and then you and then you have that that
interesting thing where you you don't really know any of
the South African players.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
But you heard the storms are goune hard this year.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
Yeah, and then and then you the rubber hits the road.
Speaker 4 (28:49):
But nowadays we just found out that we've been smashing
that ship team all year and we can't kind of
work out why they're even in the league.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
Yeah, that's right. How did they make the playoffs? They
lost more than they won.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Look, we've said a lot of dumb shit on the podcast.
That might not be one of those dumb things.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
Super Rugby Champions League.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
Super Rugby Champions Like, all right, let's finish this on
a high. One last call of yours please.
Speaker 4 (29:29):
Was it a guy dropping marbles onto other marbles or
I think.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
It was Yeah, was he filling up his britter filtered
jug to put back in the fridge?
Speaker 3 (29:40):
What do you think? You don't think it was urine?
Speaker 6 (29:41):
Indy?
Speaker 3 (29:42):
Was it number two? Was it number two? Does he
need a bit of fiber in his diet? More questions
and answers from that call ask more questions.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
I think that is as good at time as you
need to knock this thing on the head. Thank you
very much for joining me this morning. Head, Thanks for
having me.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
We'll see you guys later on.
Speaker 2 (30:00):

Speaker 2 (00:10):
The Agenda Podcast, the home of Sporting Nonsense and clap Trap,
brought to you by Next Sport, a Vulture.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
And a big Kodo. To matd Heath, Good morning, yet A.
How are you very well? Thank you? What is firing
up the listeners of ZIB this week?
Speaker 1 (00:27):
Well?
Speaker 4 (00:27):
I was asking the question yesterday and you might be
able to answer this. What why can't I? Yeah, people
people were really generous to you then they were. That
was the lower end of what people were predicting. Yeah,
but you know eight hundred and eighty teen eighty ha
bigs my night's cot.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
That fired up the phones? Yeah, I know, what were
the what were they?
Speaker 4 (00:50):
I was just asking this question and I don't yesterday
I can't remember anything, but I was talking about a
kotahi and why can't they work twenty four hours a day?
Speaker 3 (01:01):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (01:01):
Why can't you have three shifts? And no one could
give me an answer.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Well, mins run twenty four hours a day? Yeah, yeah,
if there's gold to be extracted out of the mountain.
You'll figure it out pretty quick, won't you it.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
Yeah, because you see all those people and I think
it's cool how they've got their beekeeper hats on now
the reflective beekie behaf Yeah, but it's horrible working in
the middle of the day in summer. Yeah, like that
is brutal. Yeah, so you'd want a rotation.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
Yeah, that's what I think.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
Working even two shifts, you know.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Too, twelve hour shifts, like I said, mines they fed
this out age. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Yeah, it just seems you'd get it, you'd get it done. Yeah,
you'd get get it, get it done.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Anyone who needs to get through a mountain of work
and a short space of time runs that way.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Yeah. They do two days shifts, two nights shifts, four
days off.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
That's how almost every mind the fonterra plants will run
that way.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
I worked to shift work for a long time and
it does. It turns you into it a very strange person.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
What takes years off your life? It does, Yeah, because.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
You can't sleep, so you get home and then everyone
in your flat's getting up like this blows.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
This sucks. It actually does. Yeah, you have to have
a cave.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
If you're going to work shift work, you need to
live in a cave that you can go back to.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
I worked on a fund that did I want to say,
fourteen or sixteen hour milking, So we'd milk it like
six in the morning, then like eight o'clock at night,
and then the next day at lunchtime. And that was
because there were so many cows and not enough grass,
so they needed longer between milkings. So it's basically three
milkings every two day. Very confusing schedule and fuck it
(02:27):
sucked because if you made it on the purse, I'm
not finishing work till at midnight one in the morning. Yeah,
So then you show up, everyone's written off. Or I
finish it about three or four in the afternoon. Great,
we were on it. I'm milking again tomorrow morning.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
Yeah. So it's like, yeah, it kills you the shift work. Yeah.
Having said that we need the roads.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
Wick, Yeah, when you just get it done, get it done.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
And that brings me to regurgitating some of the content
I used this morning on the Jerry Knee Matt Show
on This Morning obviously yesterday, and you know, in the
lead up to it, we saw the power of a
hicuin terms of getting your opinions out there, keep putting
something to the forefront of everyone's mind. What everyday things
that pass you off so much that you were just
(03:07):
about start a recoy.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
For jeez, that's a really good question.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
So I went with passwords for like internet accounts. I
fucking hate them. I don't want them. Every time I
log in, I can't I forget the password and reset
your password? Sendaiamail adress, what's my fucking password from email adress?
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Can't do that?
Speaker 4 (03:24):
Yeah, And then then they go that that password has
been used too many times, you can't use that.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
But that's my password. I use it on everything.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
That's all I've got, and I've got nothing like I've
got more my bank account. Sure, lock that up. Yeah,
I saw it in. My mate fell about this and
were and he was talking about whether it has Our
partners at the time found got hacked into our emails
or our phones, and yeah, we think that. We were
saying that'd be probably break up with us for how
boring our chatters for Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
One hundred percent, my miss as we too. God, that's
what you guys talk about. There's no secrets it's just pathetic.
Three fantasy teams, no side checks. You're a loser. I
can't be with a loser.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
I remember once a girlfriend came home and found me
and my mates and we'd set up a D and
D board, and we were all in costumes and we
had we had candles, and we'd been playing, and two
of our girlfriends came home. Yeah, and I reckon they
would have rather caught us cheating. I reckon they would
rather caught us and Beard with other women than what
they saw that day, cloaks and goods.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
I've always and we'll talk about fantasy sports very shortly,
but I've always had this theory that no man with
more than one fantasy team is cheating on his message.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
That's too much admind, it's too much to keep track of.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
I told that's Laura McGoldrick Wander and she goes, no,
they're not cheating, because no girl wants to be with
a guy.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
With more than one fantasy team.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
Tell you what in our fantasy team, in our fantasy league,
Finkle Clutcher, It's been a lot of controversy on the
commissioner of the league, and I've been accused of cheating
and unfairly, and there's been accusations of a smoking gun.
There's no evidence been put apart put across and everyone
should know by the fact I couldn't pause the draft
that I wouldn't know how to cheat?
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Can you cheat? I actually want to know.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Can can someone maybe someone on a US please can
tell me how if you're in an NFL fantasy league
as the commissioner, you could cheat.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
What's in the back end that I could do? I
don't know.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Could I cancel people's waivers that.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
Would probably reverse the waiver order or something like that.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
You can veto trades and things like that, but they
haven't meant to any of those up.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Just back the truck up a little bit.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
There have been allegations came into our group chat just
yesterday actually from one member Phil Yeah, who is alleging
that Cass has told him, Yeah, that there is a
smoking gun that he knows you've been cheating as a
commissioner of our league and he has a smoking gun,
and Phil brought that to the group chat. First, first
(05:47):
of all, I didn't feel like that was Phil's place
to bring this group chat. If Cass has the smoking
gunring it out, Bring it out, Bring it out. But
also he needs to address that in the group chat.
So then Phil posts a screenshot a text conversation that
he's had with Cass and CAAs says, I have I
have a smoking gun that proofs I'll try and find
(06:09):
it verbatim because it's quite funny. I don't want to
alarm you, but Mad is using his position as commissioner
in fantasy football to cheat. And then Phil replied said,
really got proof? Cass said I have massive proof, a
smoking gun, if you will, and that's where the conversation ended.
So now this has since shock waves through a fantasy league.
Well what is the smoking gun? What could it possibly be?
Speaker 4 (06:31):
I put two poles into the group chat. One wise,
do you still basically have support? And do you support
the commissioner?
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (06:40):
No?
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Or maybe?
Speaker 4 (06:41):
And should put up shut up around the smoking gun?
Both came back up in my favor. He's been told
to put up a shut up. Well, you did vote
heavily in your own favor in both just that.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
And that pole.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
You can vote as many times as you want, and.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Which lends a bit of credits to the smoking gun
there if you're willing to cheat on the pole in the.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
As a commissioner and to try and gain the support
back of the team under this, you know, pretty I
actually need the Whitewash team and actually helped me out
there that they said but I was thinking about and
that she was a suggestion that you came through around
some novelty rounds.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Yes, some novelty weeks.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
So this week I'm playing Tom Harper. Yeah, neither of
our we're both of our defenses are on a by round.
So I've proposed the butt naked round where we play
with no defense.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
So going forward in your fantasy leagues, people that are
in them that you need to schedule like like one
other butt naked pants down? What if you want to
call it but one week where no one has their defense?
And I mean that's exciting, isn't it. It mixes it up,
it is, and I guess you sort of need to
randomly generate it are otherwise people would could plan around that. Yeah,
(07:51):
but I don't know if you could, But then what
would you be? I mean, this is NFL, But what
would you call it if you didn't have the quarterback?
So we have another round and no quarterback because I
I've I had an injury that I was messed and
I had one round with no quarterback and I still won.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
It was against the odds.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
But I reckon that's like a headless Yeah, headless the
behitting round.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
I want it to sound ruder than that that blindfolded
cock out, but that doesn't work.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
But they are there are the eyes of the team.
They are the driver BELLI driverless car. Yeah, maybe best,
but I'll quite like that idea of of sort of
novelty rounds a fantasy league. What about you want something
a bit more egregious than blindfolded? What about the nine
to eleven round where you get to hijack your other
player's team and you get to pick one position for them. Shit,
(08:38):
so you go on high check round? Yeah you wow,
one position. You're allowed to change one player, not the
whole team.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
I don't they Oh yeah yeah that's that's bloody great.
You can change the quarterback out. Yeah wow, that would
be good.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
Yeah, the hijack round nine to eleven, you.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Do it on September ely hijack round. You were allowed and.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
You just go through and you announceside you have to
stand down. Yeah your QB.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Yes, maybe it's the what's his name, Captain Phillips.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
The Yeah, that's right, I'm the captain now shit.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
Yeah, yeah, I reckon. That's good.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
There'll be some creative ways that people have played their
fantasy these because I know a lot of dudes take
it real seriously. Yeah, yeah, I love the draft at
someone's house. It's some dudes will do like a paper
draft where they sit there and write out their picks
manually and then and put it into the computer.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
Well, because I've had quite a good round, I think
I'm still the head of the competition, which is why
there's these allegations against me. Against me, but I had
the absolute shitter of the draft, like everything went wrong
for me, and you know, I was in a state
of absolute depression after it, and it's been going really well,
and it just shows how little I know.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
I had the opposite, which again shows the exact same thing.
For two years running now, I have been forecast and
never lose a game.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
I've never in fantasy football.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Fantasy football has never predicted that I was ever going
to lose a game. Yeah, and yet I think I
came almost dead last last year. Yeah, and I'm eating
shit this year. Yeah. Anyway, AnyWho, I've got a chicking
fink called Clutcher.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Yeah. If I'm still at the top, Yeah, so I'm
going shit.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
The only problem with the butt naked round is that's
going to fick my pointstuff later on in the season.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
Yea by much anyway.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
All right, let's take a quick break and we'll come back.
I have got a story that we talked about yesterday.
There's been a development. I don't know if you know
the story, so I'll save it for after the break.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Yeah, I'm still number one.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
We selling our nineteen ninety eight Ford falcon Ute exclusively

Speaker 1 (11:04):
And to get betting, you can text ute to three
two three six and follow the link to the auto
trader listening while they're telling you yelling about your car.
I have been made aware of a story that involves
the White Stripes and Kane Williams. And if you heard
this story, no, I told you yesterday on the podcast,
So I'll fast forward it. The White Strips Elephant album
(11:24):
which has that's the one with seven Nation Army on it.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Ye great album.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Jack White is sitting on the cover. He is holding
a cricket bat. The cricket bat was left in the
studio by man by the name of John Baker. Are
you familiar with John John Bah? He is cousins with
Kane Williamson. It is Kane Williamson's bat that's on the
cover of the Elephant album.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
Holy shit, Yeah, because John Baker used to he worked
with the White Stripes for a long time.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Yes, wow, And you would come across him, he said, yeah, yeah,
and I'm quite welly. He books a lot of gigs.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Ye. Wow. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
So Caane Williamson's bat is on the cover of the
White Stripes album.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
This is blown my mind. Wow. I've talked about it
into every microphone I've been in front of. The last
that is very very cool.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
Is vain added that how come that has only rerisen
to the top now.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Well, the only reason we found out I currently say
exactly how but we were by putting a promo together
for summer and basically this little bit of trivia was
in there and we looked at him.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
We're like, no, that's not right. We did the research.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
John Backer had written the article last year explaining how
the whole thing came to be.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
Wow, a cook a Borough Fighter it is. That's so
freaking cool.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
It's also I never noticed he had a Cu cricket
mat and I've covered that album neither.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
So it's supposed to signify the tusk of the elephant,
and that's where he's sitting and he's holding the tusk.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
Yeah, it's washed out, so it's white.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
You can't see what's on it, but it is a
cook a Barrough fighter and we know that because the
bat still exists.
Speaker 4 (12:48):
Government tasted key. We came Williamson. Yeah, he's got his
arms and his influenced extends a long way.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Oh my god. Anyway, Yes, like I said, it's Cook
a Borough fighter.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
The reason I know that is because the bat still
exists and I saw a photo of it in the
exact same article I read. The article came out last year.
That's because the person who has it took a photo
of it. The person who has it lives not far
from here. It is at a place called Daddy Long Legs,
which I believe is a record store slash music venue
out west in TISUDANGI here in Auckland, and I reckon
(13:20):
when need to launch a campaign to go and get
that bat?
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Yeah, I don't know what get that bat? Like an
illegal raid or like or you're going to reach out first.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
I think we reach out first.
Speaker 4 (13:33):
But if it doesn't come yeah yeah yeah, if it doesn't,
we don't have a choice.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Well yeah, I would hate for my hand to be forced.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
So if you're listening, yeah, you come That bat can
come quietly, yeah, or it can come hard. You can
come home. There's two ways we can do this.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
What would that bat be worth? Now?
Speaker 4 (13:50):
I mean the bat once belonged to Caine Williamson that
was on the cover of The White Strip's Elephant album,
featuring the biggest sports song of all time one. Yes,
that'd be a pretty penny. There would be a pretty penny.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
Yeah. And the irony is it's us.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
We are driving like we're giving it the most exposure
of anyone we are working.
Speaker 4 (14:09):
We need to run it down before we make an offer.
It's actually with nothing.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
And I actually heard it wasn't They actually the same
bet and so yeah, fifty bucks Williams had never saw it.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
So yeah, well, lowball the fuck out.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (14:18):
My mate's dad went to prison for this for what
low balling a piece of artwork that it knew was
worth a lot more.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Really went to prison for it.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Yeah, aggressive some sporting news that's not related to stealing
pieces of sports memorabilia. The Black Clash is going to
be jan seventeenth, which is actually not that far and
they've just announced the wild card four team cricket is
going to be Sean Johnson.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
I've got a story about Sean Johnson. Do you want
to hear it? That I heard the other day? Absolutely so.
Speaker 4 (14:47):
I was talking to one of Coldplay's management right, and
he was saying to me, I said, have your time
been is good yet? He goes, I went to we
had the raft party last night and a bunch of
people came and I was talking to this guy. He
is a great guy, like really really good looking, good
looking guy.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
Great chat.
Speaker 4 (15:06):
Talked to him for ages and he asked me everything
about cold Play, everything about the tour, everything about life.
And at the end I found out it was Sean
Johnson from someone else, So Shawney Jay this whole chat
about someone else's life, some manager and their life, and
didn't at any point bring that up that he was
Sean Johnson.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Was it an Englishman?
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Yeah, he was talking to so he may not have
known who obviously didn't he didn't know who Sean Johnson
was Johnson was.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
But then he went back over and he said, I
hear that you're you're Sean Johnson. Everyone everyone's very excited
that you hear. And he goes, oh, yeah, yeah, and
he goes and he goes hi, and then and then
he said.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
What he mean up to?
Speaker 4 (15:47):
He goes, I retired, and then I am retired, and
then I retired again.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
She goes, Okay, it's been frantic, I mean on that like,
when you get to a point like Sewan Johnson, everyone
must talk to Sean Johnson about sew john Sewn Johnson.
It must get so annoying.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
Yeah, so it'd be quite nice, it must be quite efficiently.
He's probably why I gave this British guy so much time.
He's like, this is the only guy in this party
that's not going to punish me about me. Yeah, so,
and so I can actually just ask them some questions
about you know, yeah, and if you got into a
cold Play party, you're probably interested in cold Play?
Speaker 1 (16:20):
Yeah, oh definitely. And you know you would have watched
the gurgon. Yeah, how the fun did they do that?
Speaker 3 (16:24):
Yeah? Yeah, yeah, that's right.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
So talking to one of the guys that brings the
whole thing together would probably be quite interesting for you.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
How did the wristbands know where they are? Light up?
And blah blah blah? And the beach bulls who's pump
and those?
Speaker 1 (16:35):
And in the middle of all that, he would have
been well within his right And so the wristbands and
the beach balls sweet And did you see my pastor
Dellen moatin is Lisniar and my last year.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Again, last touch the student? Okay, sweet.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Yeah, and just Chris Martin, so he's Yeah.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
If I was Shawn Johnson, then it would be raised
pretty quickly, pretty early on in the conversation. Yeah, that's right, Yeah,
that would My career would come up reason me quickly.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
The thing I respect the most of it. Stephen Donald,
I've never heard him bring that up. I've never heard
him bring that kick up.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
And if I was Stephen Donald, yeah, every available opportunity, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:10):
I'll be like, hey, know, set You'm the guy with
the two thousand and eleven ruby.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
I'm twenty eleven rugby will cup hero.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Yeah, Stephen Beaver, I'm john Who are you?
Speaker 3 (17:23):
Or here's a DVD of that movie about that. Yeah,
So yeah, Sewan John's would have been well within his rights. Anyway.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
He is going to be playing cricket at the Black Clash,
and this is he was interviewed about it.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
He said he's never.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Played cricket really like backyard cricket, that kind of thing,
but he never played it competitively through high school or
anything like that. And that is not what team cricket needs.
As as we know, you and I have played in
a lot of games, as you know, untrained, but we're
not competitive cricket players.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
And the hardest part about cricket is.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Not the batting. It's not the bowling, it's the fielding. Fielding,
And when you're out of neck, it's standing around for
hours then sprint stop, jump up, throw as hard as
you can, sprint back, stop, stand for another half hour. Yeah,
and that destroys an aging man's body.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
And so what they need team cricket. They do not
need bowlers. They don't need batters. They need one whip
it out in the field who can still chase a
ball down.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Yeah. That's the value he's going to bring one hundred percent.
The other part is how.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Cool is it going to be watching Sean Johnson bowl
at Chris Gale.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
That's the value of the Black Clash.
Speaker 4 (18:30):
I can imagine Sean Johnson will go to the nets
and he'll rustle up a decent delivery.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
I reckon occurred. Yeah. Yeah, he is an outstanding neck. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
And that's the thing those people that are genetically disposed
to being great at sport, genetically disposed to being great
at great most sports.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
He'll figure it out. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
And plus, like you were just saying before, he does
Chris Martin pretty well so I Chris gave a few
bowling zopes.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Might not be a great better.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
All right, let us take a quick break. Oh just
before we do, though, this is something I want to
address with you. It's been stuck in my crawl for
a couple of days now.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
In light of the.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
HHM n Z Manu and Nui running aground in the
reef and some more. There was it uncouth then for
the All Whites to thump some more eight mel and
a World Cup qualifier. Should we have let them have
that one?
Speaker 4 (19:23):
Yeah, that's football diplomacy right there.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
That could be a good taken. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (19:28):
Disgusting, Yeah, an insult to a nation.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
We could have extended an olive branch, and no, we
rubbed their face and the faces into it.
Speaker 4 (19:36):
I was down at talking at an Air Force bace
and I talked to some of the pilots the other day.
Gilian's probably brought this up, and I just sort of
been laughing about that, that whole sinking. But then talking
to the guys that flew down and the hurt to
help out, They're like that was freaking hairy. Really when
they were getting off their boat as it's sinking at night,
(19:56):
onto when you're on a reef.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
We were, well, I just imagine it was sort of
just I got off.
Speaker 4 (20:00):
It was nice, it was and then it went down,
but it was like it was hairy.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
It would be, I guess at least for them. They
are in a nice enough climate to where it's reef.
They weren't in the Bearing Sea looking for Alaskan crabs.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
As long as it doesn't spew shit everywhere, it's going
to be quite cool because you'll go to someone and
you'll be like you hope be able to see it
under the water. Yeah, you know, I was talking to
a diver, like an army diver the other day, and
he was saying that he managed to go down and
dive down and lie in his old when they sunk
one of our old ships scanner scuttled it. Yeah, he
(20:35):
went down as a diver and into the water and
got into the ship and lay down in his old
bunk bed that he'd been sleeping and back in the
day when he was involved.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (20:43):
Right, Well, actually, PFA, I was talking to a guy
who knew a guy who knew a guy. It's close
enough so you can so it'd be pretty cool, Like
you're be able to go and dive down and look
around it.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
That'd be pretty cool lieing your bunk bed one last time?
Did he do anything else that in that bunk bed
that he might have done.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
That one one last time?
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Yes, that's one last time for old time sake.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
So maybe it'll eventually help the destroying our economy, losing
one hundred and thirty million dollar boat, but maybe eventually
helped this someone economy.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Yeah, destroying their ecology, but their economy. Yeah, sings roundabacks.
All right, let's take quick break. We'll come back with
yours please.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Yours please? Brought you by leader Home of the Lap.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
About four of them to get through today. First call
it yours please.
Speaker 5 (21:36):
Yeah, Lad's, I think you're really missing a trick on
this camel costume idea. I've done the homework for you.
So if you jump on Elie Barber you can get
an inflatable camel my suggestion. Acc Bolk orders a ton
of those in, sell them off the website, and we
turn day two, the Sunday of the Hamilton Test and
(21:58):
the Camel Day, to Tim southing thoughts.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Yeah, I like this.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
So we are looking for a way to celebrate Tim
Southy's last ever game. It's in Hamilton, it's the Test match,
third Test match against England, yep. And the initial idea
was get a camel in there. We had a thought,
we had a lot of thoughts around how do we
get a camel into the grounds. It's then become apparent
that there actually are no camels in New Zealand.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
There's none at all.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
There's none that none that my missus is aware of,
and she works in the industry. Yeah, so I like
the idea of do we dress up or do we
sell some sort of merch, some sort of camel merch.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Yeah, I don't mind. Day two.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
My ideal would be the holy Grail would be Day five,
which is Wednesday hump day for the sixty camel.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
Get your humps out for the sixy camel. Oh that's
not bad, or.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
Yeah, you used to get you humps out like your
lovely lady humps, your hum bloody headphones, your humps, your heart,
your lovely lady humps.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
You're lovely lady humps, that's right, or whatever humps you
have available to What.
Speaker 4 (23:04):
About if everyone because you know you can get thrown
out for smoking, right, some of the all they SAIDs
you can't. You can get one quote on the vape,
but you're thrown out immediately for smoking. Right, Yeah, everyone
brings in slides in soft back camel in the back pocket.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
And and then just on queue at a particular moment,
you get five thousand people to light up.
Speaker 3 (23:28):
Light up a dart, light up a dart. Men want children.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
For the for the sixy camel, and unity you have
a sexy camel for the sixy camel. I mean it
might not work because people were just like, why are
they smoking? And then there's another step before you realize
that they're smoking camels, and someone will turn up with
a you know, b an h special filter and it
will ruin the whole thing.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
The English commentators will ask Smithy what the folks are on,
and you're like, okay, so there's these kids.
Speaker 4 (23:53):
And they call the sixy camel and there's also a
brand of cigarettes called Camels, and yeah, yeah, yeah, it's
too it's probably probably slightly too convolent.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
That's why I've got an eight year old smoking a
Darry on the bound.
Speaker 4 (24:08):
Why is that eight year old smoking a Darry?
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Well?
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Funny, Yeah, some think getting Lovely Lady humps out as
much better, lovely lady humps. Yeah, I don't mind that
that's out for Sally.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (24:20):
I mean there's probably been a few out from over
the years.
Speaker 3 (24:23):
I imagine there would have been in an amateur and
a professional manner. In a professional capacity.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
That's out in a professional capacity, not cually you're sports.
Speaker 6 (24:33):
Yeah, hey colours, Hey is it time for the in
an hour to go full? NFL it's been the league
to twenty teams have two conferences of ten teams, but
those conferences in two with two divisions, five teams per division.
The winner of each division gets into the playoffs four
wild cards and can go hand on it. That brings
(24:56):
he can have a draft and all that kind of
stuff too, just more shait to talk about. Always thought.
Speaker 4 (25:02):
Yeah, well, and then you have then the Grand Final
becomes like the super Bowl where you have the winner
of each each league going head to head.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
I think how you would do it would be a
Sydney division and then everyone else's division. Yeah, because there's
so many Sydney teams. I think it might actually be
eight yeah yeah, and then it'd be us the two
Brisbane teams, North Queensland.
Speaker 3 (25:23):
Canberra, Yeah, Newcastle. Yeah, I think it work.
Speaker 4 (25:27):
I mean, it gets It means that the Kaleways don't
get to go over and play, and you know, like
you know, we don't get to come and play, and
the Warriors don't get to come and play in Sydney.
Yeah until the end bond Oh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
But it would, it could shorten the It make every
game a little bit more exciting. That's the cool part
about the NFL. Every game feels like it matters.
Speaker 3 (25:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
Well, you know, and you know all that in America
it's all divided up. So you're generally playing the same teams,
yeah a lot, especially in baseball.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
You know, you're playing so then you've got a rivalry. Yeah,
because so.
Speaker 4 (25:55):
You have you know, you play the same teams multiple
times in a season.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
Yeah, because I wouldn't. I couldn't tell you who the
Warriors rivals are. I mean, yeah, you want to say
the Storm, I don't know. I guess the thing is
we haven't beaten many of these teams through often hard
to have a rivalry when you get your.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
Yeah, but that but that was actually a pretty freaking
cool idea. Yeah, because it is good to play the
teams multiple times, you know, and you see where you
sit in the season.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Yeah, storylines start to emerge. Two dudes.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
Last game there was a bit of a bit of
birth of discontent but a biff, Yeah, it's a really
good idea.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Such and such said this after the game and an interview,
and now they're going to play each other.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
I wonder if you could do that with n PC.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
Divisions, that might be a way to do it.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
North Island South Island divisions might be thinking also maybe
that could be the answer for Super Rugby as well,
because the you know, we need Australia, yeah, we need
I reckon, we need South Africa back. Yeah, but maybe
if we just played our own divisions, yeah, and then
we linked up every now and there.
Speaker 4 (26:56):
Well that's why I was thinking for a while, like
a Champions League would be quite good. We play and
then and then you know, even if it wasn't maybe
if it was just number one, So then you have
a try series at the at the end of the
winning club goes off and plays the wing in Australian
club plays the winning South African club.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
Yeah, or even top two and you've got a six
way yeah, six way probably series. So we've sent our
champions and it's bluesing the because because it's not not
not bad in New Zealand. If we play I mean
I know the players, so they get smashed up a
lot more when they play. The kiwis over and every
New Zealand is over and over again. But you don't
care if if the Blues play Crusaders four times in
(27:37):
a season, I'd love it. You'd love it, yeah, wouldn't you?
And then and then you then the best two teams
go over and play however, and then but because the
other part of that is if you're a Highlanders fan,
you can get them behind What if a team we
send over because they're now our champion, Yeah, yeah exactly,
and so you can yeah, you could throw it well
and behind that.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
Actually that is yeah.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
And then then it's then you know it's working or something,
because you know, when it was the Super Rugby, it
was like I loved it. It was good, it just
needed one more step. They actually fucked up because they
didn't have a final, but that would have been amazing.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Yeah, that's why the Blues won that Asterix title. Yeah yeah,
Badah played the Crusaders and Cowards.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
Yeah, but if you had a if you had that,
and then it went onto something else.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Yes, then that would be amazing.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
