I double check it is still happening? Because sometimes things change,
you know, moods might change in the day. Basically, Meddi
invited me for dinner tonight. It spent a long time
coming and I got We got halfway through the show
and I was like, is this still a boglass?
Speaker 2 (00:36):
You said to me that earlier in the day you thought.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
I was coming down with something like I just had
a really rubbish sleep last night. So I just didn't
know if I was getting suck on. And I was like, oh, no,
might I have to cancel Meddie? He's going to literally
think I never want to come to his place for dinner,
so you canceled.

One really speaks to my soul. If I realized that's
my happy drinking. How some drinks just hit the spot. Well,

think maybe I pulled a bigg of gens or something.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Because I pulled big gens and inside them a god,
someone's going to listen to this and be like you
that's called alcoholic.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
Yeah no, but just like a little w all the moderation,
all the moderation, and if you're drinking, always be responsible.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
Yeah, a nice little glass room.

Do you want to play board game?
Speaker 1 (02:52):
I don't know if I can it off, I'm ready
for it.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Could be fun, could be fun.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Okay, okay, should we do it over dinner? Yeah? Okay,
I'm gonna regret this.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Do I have any other questions for you? The other
thing is I'm wearing because we went a field days today,
you and I.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Yeah, I really dug your out for that.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Thanks. So they gave me stubbies. I've got boots with
longs like big meaty woolen socks and one of these
chicken like farm shoes. Yeah, yeah, Ryan did this? Yeah,
I need to stay at the door.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Someone runs. You know, I can, I can leave, I
can sit outside.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
A little bit. Yeah, that mortifying. Do you know what.
I once went on holiday with a friend.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
And they did that. I know who the friend was.
I know what city this was. I was traveling at
those times in the city.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
I once went on holiday with friend and we booked
a hotel room head like two double beads in the
same room. My god, because we're only there for a
couple of nights, and you know, we're good friends. So yeah,
we sleept in this. We were in the same room
but different beds, and yeah, my friend found a little
little lover spaniche lover. So I had to go and
(04:17):
sit by the pool for a little bit. And you
just arrived this no, maybe this was day two. Oh yeah, yeah.
So I was just like, okay, that's fine, plas place.
So I took the book and then set on the
lounges up by the pool. And then they just texed
you with the I think they came up and hung
(04:37):
up by the pool and the grove to drink. Yeah, wild,
I'm not going to do that rock and roll. I'm
not going to do that.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Well, we'll let you know what happens at dinner and
the board game. I'm only doing this because I know
we'll get content coming up to the podcast. We have
a lot of fun. We talked about when you accidentally
took something that wasn't yours.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
It was great.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Yeah, it was really weird. Fun calls today, actually we play.
We brought back one of our favorite games, Are You
a Farmer?
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Yeah? So people called up and basically we asked them questions.
They kind of had to convince us that they were
a farmer and we had to guess whether they were
or not. I think we make this a regular thing.
I think we can change it up, except it could
be like are you one week, it could be are
you a teacher?
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Makes up the occupation?
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Yeah, occupation guys. You have to shorten all right, enjoy
the podcast.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
May the podcast.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
We were lucky enough to hear long to a Field
days for a very short time today and Mystery Creek
is going down for the next few days just outside
of Hamilton. It ramps up on Saturday and many can
we cue the country calling the music thing? How do
you feel?
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Well? I arrived much like I did when I came
and visited you on the farm. A few months ago
while sticking out like a sore thumb. I mean, the
good news is because when I turned up to your
farm the last time, I was in white shoes, white jeans,
and a cream colored polo shirt.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Yes, you upgraded to leave the boots this time and
blue jeans.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
And blue jeans, which is relatively.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Rural, but for whatever reason, you decided to pair it
with a salmon shirt. And it wasn't even a denim shirit.
It looked like dinner, but it was like fake dinner.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
It was faked dinner, a pink faked dinner.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
You have real materials around the farmer's.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Mate, I know. And so I got a lot of looks,
a lot of questionable glances, and actually a few cheeky
comments along the way from some people. What kind of
commie yeah, calling me up for my pink top?
Speaker 1 (06:36):
Oh right, oh, okay on or something? Mate, don't know,
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
You know what Evans that's true.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Hey, So we we'd have a been of fun with
this because we obviously tried to put many through his paces.
It's going to be a fun video which we put
up on our social at the end of the week.
But we have played this before on the show when
you came to the farm, it's called are you a farmer?
So literally you give us a call eight hundred the hurts.
Whether you're a farmer or not, it's irrelevant. We're going
(07:07):
to try and work out if you are by asking
one simple question. And we've actually got a bunch of
some delicious hot sauce to give away. Hang on, I've
got it right here.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Oh no, I literally head you were so good.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
No no, no, no no. It's called Fiji Fire Native Bongo Chilli
hot sauce. It's a new product coming to New Zealand
and you'll be the first to trial it here. So
if you get on the air, we're going to hook
you up with that. It sounds delicious. All you need
to do is literally call us oh eight hundred the
hats and we will work out if your farmer or not.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Have you got some questions. I'm so in touch with
the rule. I'm ready to go. I'm good to go.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
All right, anyone from around the country get involved the podcasts.
We've had a big day at field Days at Mystery
Creek just outside of Hamilton. Don't put your leagus up
on the table.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Don't do that was it too much crotch?
Speaker 1 (07:59):
You just so every time the lack of masculinity that's
gone on in your life. Excuse me, I met you
told me that you said you tried to play rugby
and didn't.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
I picked the daisy chains under the gold post famously.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
And you said, wins rugby rehearsal. Anyway, we have had
a great day at field Days and we thwart to
taste our farming knowledge. We'd bring back the game. Are
you a farmer? It's that simple. You just call us
oh waite hundred the hats if we get you on
the year, We've got some Fiji fire native bongo chili
hot sauce to give away.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Well, you're surrounded by farmers day and day out. Yes,
and I am surrounded by farmers for about an hour today,
so I'm totally so we're well equipped well for the game.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Sorry, we get a question, h do you want to start?
Absolutely all right, let's go to Kelly in the way
cut Kelly. Have you been to field Days today? I'm
not today.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
That wasn't my question.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
That wasn't my question.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Okay, you get a question that was a bo she was.
She was quick to answer.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Okay, what are you going to ask, Kelly, Kelly, what
do you.
Speaker 5 (09:04):
Drive a Kiss Sportage?
Speaker 1 (09:09):
I would not traditionally say that is the most farmy
trucking on Kiss Sportage. My midwife drive there.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
I know I've got I've got a good.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
It is will drive or will drive multi terrain.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Decent boot for all of your farming stuff.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
She was quick on the field day, but she is
from the white couple.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
I think she's going yeah, but.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
She doesn't necessarily need to be a farmer, can go
to field day just I think she knows. Maybe she's
got farming friends. I don't think she's a farmer.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
You don't know, you were quick to answer. I'm going
to go with it. I'm going to trust your gut
on that. No, Kelly, are you not a farmer?
Speaker 3 (09:52):
No?
Speaker 1 (09:52):
I am a.
Speaker 2 (09:56):

Speaker 1 (10:39):
Okay, I'm going to say Rob as a farmer. A
bit of.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
It was the slurring of the words when you went.

That my brother is just constantly surpris.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
He has a very I thought you had a social life,
but he like travels around the world and has a
social life.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
And absolute social butterfly. He's living the bachelor's lifestyle and
doing very well.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
We nearly set him up with one of my best
friends years ago. That's been a great man.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
He still asks about her. Actually, is she the one
that got a word? I think, yeah, yeah, the one
that could have been okay, yeah, But anyway, he has
recently been to South Africa for a friend's wedding, and
while he was there, he met a female for a
couple of days, little holiday.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
Romance, a little holiday flag exactly.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
And as is often the case with holiday flings, you
have a little bit of fun while you're on holiday
and then you leave and there's that.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
You know, did he develop emotions?
Speaker 2 (12:45):
They have been talking almost every day since then. This
was like about it maybe a couple of months ago
now and now she is going to fly from South
Africa to LA to stay with my brother. My brother
lives in in Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
And this is big for your bro. Huge who would
We wouldn't say he's a commitment though, but he's you know,
he obviously doesn't set all easily.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
He does not settle easily. And this girl is about
to fly halfway across the real world after only knowing
him for two days. Is that crazy?
Speaker 5 (13:17):
I know?
Speaker 1 (13:18):
They say, when you know you know? Look, I did
a longestance relationship and we did some pretty crazy things.
Like BJ, my now husband. He traveled pretty quick see
me in Melbourne. Yeah, he planned the trip pretty quick.
I thought he was joking at the beginning, but don't it.
He was there within a few weeks. Wow.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
So in a very similar situation to that.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
I guess your brother's situation is probably a little bit
more extreme. But yeah, they say, when you know, you know.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
I would love to know for four eight seven? Have
you ever done this? Or do you know someone that's
done this? Have you have you ever gone to crazy

Speaker 10 (14:05):
Maddy and PJ.
Speaker 4 (14:07):
Maddi and PJ the podcast The Heads Battle of their.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Heads at a time for what used to be our
favorite time of the week. It's quickly got competitive.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
No, it's still my favorite.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
We're bringing back the joy, were saying goodbye to the competitiveness.
It's a family fun segment this afternoon. We have been
inspired by Field Days our experience there. Today in Mystery Creek,
we thought let's go country, because there's no doubt that
country has absolutely come back on the charts over the
last year in particular, and we thought, let's go old school,
(14:45):
new school, whatever school you want to do when it
comes to country. Maddy and I will put forward what
we believe is the best country song. You will vote,
and the rest's history will play out the winner in
its entirety. Do you want me to go first?
Speaker 2 (14:57):
You go first this week?
Speaker 1 (14:58):
Okay, So then we're a few songs because I've recently
found that I actually liked quite a bit of country music.
I used to think it was the one genre I hated.
I was going to go Chris Stapleton, Chris Stapleton, Tennessee Whisky.
It's beautiful track. But then I thought, nah, we need
to get people toe tapping, we need to get a
bit of nostalgia. And there was actually a movie I
(15:18):
was watching the other day where this feat shit and
I think this artist performed at the Olympics back in
the day, and that's why it came up in the movie. Anyway,
my choice is a no brainer, a number one country
toe tapping hit released in November nineteen seventy eight as
the title track from Kenny Rodgers' album The Gambler, at
(15:38):
one of the Grammy Award for Best Male Country Vocal Performance.
That's right, I'm going Kenny with the Gambler this way.
Speaker 11 (15:46):
The whole, Lil, when the fold, Lil when the war
week and when the run.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
That's good bye, you look cocky. It's good. No, it's
really good.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Do you know the movie I'm talking about. It's the
one with the Lovey Wild I've forgotten the name, and
it's where there was the bombing at the Olympics and
that security guards he like worked out that there was
something going on. Oh, such a good movie. It's got
John Hammonett. Oh what is it called The Richard Jewel? Anyway, Sorry,
we've been distracted. Anyway, it's a great movie.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Well, this week, my husband is going to be very
happy with us this week because this is entirely in
his wheelhouse. The Gambler is one of his all time
favorite songs. But there is another song that he loves
more than anything, and it is the only song I
possibly could have chosen. When we were doing our wedding playlist,
(16:46):
he gave me full creative control of our DJ set list.
He only had one request. He said, we have to
play this song not once, not twice, but three times
the course of our wedding reception. And we did, and
every time it played, it went off on the dance floor.
(17:08):
It is the absolute all time great country song. Wagon Wheel,
No bi sid I was gonna do this and then
I changed.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
I thought you might have gone the chip.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
I was always gonna go with me. I was always
gonna go Wagel. I had to. My husband wouldn't talked
to me if I came home and chose any other song.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
All right, So there you have your two finalists this
week for the best Country Song. Yes, we know there
are many other good ones out there, but today, for
today's sake, do you want Kenny or do you want
wagon Wheel? Text Matty or PJ to four four eight
seven or give us a call right now. Let's get
the votes coming through. Oh eight hundred the hets. We've
got some helpeas of atchers to give away, and we
(17:50):
will reveal the winner.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
The podcast The Heads of the Heads.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
All right, so the current leaderboard stands at ten to
eight to yours truly, PJ is currently in the league.
I don't know how that happened. I've just had like
a real grinding streak.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Really good streak. I think it might be five in
a row for you at the moment.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Possibly. I think it's I don't know, producer upsets along
the way. Anyway, this week it is country theme, and
I have brought to the table Kenny Rogers the Gambler,
the Whole Fold, great song, and Maddie has brought along
(18:37):
the iconic.

Speaker 2 (20:36):
The winner of Battle of the Heads Country edition this
week is Darius Rucker with Wagon Wheel, enjoy.
Speaker 4 (20:45):
Med and PJ the Podcast.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
I was up early at the birds fart.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
What they call that sparrow fart.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
Yeah, I was up before the sun was rising my
head to make my to Palmesan North Edward to fly
out to the big smoke this morning, welcome, thank you?
And is today can I ask the question all the
trucks on the road on Wednesday? Because like Wednesday morning,
is this just like official truck Day? It felt particularly busy?
Speaker 2 (21:20):
Yeah, maybe mid midweek, here we go. I was going
to try and come up with an answer, and then I
started and.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Realizing like midweek might make sense, right.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
Because you've got to get your deliveries out to who
do you get deliveries to the people?
Speaker 1 (21:36):
Well, it felt like it felt extra busy. Feel free
to text the for ax even if you're a truckie.
And then my next question is I think there's like
a secret truck language like a wave. Now we've talked
about this before. You feel like when you're walking, walkers
interact with other walkers. Runners have like a special nod
to runners, and then sciens do the same. I think
the same goes with truckie.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
On truckies signaled to each other.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
Yeah, so quite often was behind a truck today on
the road, and then there would be another truck coming,
you know, and coming my way, and that all of
a sudden, it was like the headlights were on steroids
and they did like a special like a special signal. Yeah,
(22:20):
but they didn't even to it at the same time,
but you get the tope for the extra effect. And
their lights just went like they were obviously making some
kind of connection with the truck in front of me.
And then I was behind this truck for quite a
long time, and I thought he kept indicating to the left,
and I was like, man, I don't think it is,
because after a while he wasn't going anywhere, And then
I thought, well, actually is. He tried to tell me
(22:41):
to go in front of him, and he tried to
tell me that the coast is clear, but then there
was another truck oncoming, so definitely wasn't. It was definitely
not clear, so I couldn't work out what he was
trying to say or what he was doing. But there
was just this rogue like lights going on the left side.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
I guess if you were a truckie and you were
on the road for hours and hours on the end, lonely, lonely,
so a you would want it. You would want some
sort of secret language with your other truckies, wouldn't you.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Well, they have comms on the walkie talkie st there.
I think I do believe someone was telling me my
intalent the industry apparently, like you know, they'll know when
they're coming up to fellow buds, like and other trucks
on it.
Speaker 13 (23:20):
Right, like Roger Charlie one hundred out, yeah, Roger and
then the light splash and then you know, I think
there's like a whole language.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Okay, if you're a truckie, we want to know, Well,
maybe you're married to a truckie or you know a
truckie and you're aware of this. Is there a secret
language amongst truckies? What is the secret language? Am I
just delusion on?
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Really? Tired at five o'clock in the morning takes more
for as.
Speaker 7 (23:48):
Even many in the podcast, Something wild has just happened,
and we are loving the story and it comes via
juices here, well via producers.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
Here is flatmate really she's happy for us to share
this story.
Speaker 8 (24:05):
Well, I just said her, I'm playing this on the radio,
So don't see me something if you don't want to.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
This is this is what I've decided with my friends.
I've always seen you have to tell me if this
isn't off the recatation otherwise, So tell us what happened
to your flat mate?
Speaker 1 (24:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (24:22):
So I just got this audio message through in our
group chair, and it was all these messages were coming through,
and I'm like, guys, I'm on the right, and so
I just quickly listened to the voice recording. Do you
want me to play through just randomly?
Speaker 6 (24:34):
Yep?
Speaker 1 (24:35):
My god, guys.
Speaker 10 (24:36):
At some point in time during my journey, I have
swatted trolley's for someone. I have like half my stuff
and half theirs, and I did not notice until now,
and I'm like walking around the super market, like trying
to find this person.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
How does one even start to go about that? Do
you like, go b retrace your steeps? How do you go?
Speaker 2 (24:56):
I have no idea how you do that? You'd be like,
you'd have to go is the city ones.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
I'd go up to the can you go up to
the big speaker and go, oh, yes, hello, who got
five packets of chocolate? We've got some Magi noodles.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
It would not be good if someone had half my trolley.
Too much, too much.
Speaker 8 (25:19):
She should send a follow up message saying that she
walked around the supermarket and she found her old trolley abandoned.
Oh okay, and so she managed to put all of
her stuff back together. But she couldn't find the person
that she took half a No.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
That poor Dolly will be walking around the thinking they've
lost the marbles.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Ib, this has happened just so many people before, not
even just in the supermarket either.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
Well, yeah, have you taken something by accident that wasn't yours?
Maybe it was supermarket related, Maybe.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Maybe it was you went to a takeaway restaurant to
pick up your order? That would be so I hadn't
we picked up someone else's time? Heal?
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Have you taken someone's car? Maybe you went to pick
it up. Honestly, I can imagine the.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
That's very similar to yours.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
You got the wrong yoat give us a call. I'll
wait one hundred the hat so it takes four for
eight seven. Let's see what we get with this. Have
you accidentally taken the wrong thing and we've got oh,
we've got some coffee beans to give away. Get in
touch the hat, May and me and the podcast the
(26:26):
kind of threw this out there not knowing what we get.
Inspired by producer Sarah and her flatmates story at the
supermarket this afternoon. If you missed it, this is what
her flapmight just sent her. I God, guys.
Speaker 10 (26:39):
At some point in time during my journey, I have
swatted trolley's for someone. I have like half my stuff
and half theirs, and I did not notice until now,
And I'm like walking around the supermarket like trying to
find this person.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
So amazing she ended up rekindling with.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Her original trolley. But the poor.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Lady lady lostly is so anyway we wanted to know,
have you accidentally taken something of someone else's text? Four
for eight seven or one hundred hats we.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Have some fantastic texts already hit me? This is so?
This one has happened to someone else. My dad was
grocery shopping with me and grabbed the wrong trolley once
complete with a child. It was not ours?
Speaker 1 (27:23):
What how ow?
Speaker 2 (27:27):
I don't know. I guess distracted?
Speaker 1 (27:29):
Maybe Gore wild Lea's kind of Jenna on the phone.
You actually work at a supermarket? Can you shed more
light on this? Gena?
Speaker 12 (27:39):
So, from what I can tell, when people are going around,
they focus on what they're really after and don't focus
on the trolley itself. Yes, yep, and so over. When
I am going through my day, I end up hearing
maybe at least twice a day, please discustom Can you
(28:00):
check your trolley? Trolley?
Speaker 2 (28:03):
So is that the thing to do? Jennis? Should we
if we ever do accidently grabbed the wrong trolley, just
come to you guys and we'll do a little switcheroo.
Speaker 12 (28:11):
Yeah, so basically, customers, the avessel put it over the
loud speaker.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
Usually amazing, so good.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Hey, thank you so much for getting in touched you
know a non. I always loving a non on the phone.
Oh one hundred hats what happened with you?
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (28:25):
Hey, I actually accidentally shoplifted a pack of really boring
plain black andies. Well, yeah, I had gone to the
mall with my newborn and first time mum.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
You know, also, mum brain is a real thing.
Speaker 5 (28:43):
Yeah, yeah, it is a real thing.
Speaker 6 (28:45):
It's not actually the only thing I've accidentally shoplifted either,
So so grabbed these honeys, put them on the top
of the pram, carried on browsing through Farmers, then left Farmers,
went all through them all for about two hours, had
lunch and everything. By the time I got back to
the car, which was parked, you know, quite far away
from the entrance of them all, put the baby in.
(29:05):
Baby was asleep, folded the pram up to put in
the boot and the UNDI cell and.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
I'm so embarrassed to go back now.
Speaker 6 (29:15):
God, sometimes could have been better than some boring black
plane clicks.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
Lay Jee. A couple of great texts here that it
can quickly read to you. My great grandmother drove off
in someone else's car. How it was a few k's
down the road when she realized her dogs were in
the car, so she had to turn around and go back.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
How does the key work.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
If the keys near enough to the car and the
car's unlocked, maybe you can start it with the push button.
Oh my god, someone else said, I took the wrong
car from the tire company. They gave me the wrong
set of key. So I just pushed the unlock button
and hopped into What if a vehicle flash and we
didn't click? So I got back to work. I went
to back in and realized that this car has leather
seats and no reversing beeper.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
A little be nice, I might not return it. Arlie's
wrap upway said, all right, hander the hats Hi, Sandy,
what did you accidentally take? Hi?
Speaker 3 (30:03):
And I was in a very busy restaurant in Dunedin
and the waiter deliver in our salads with this lovely
slice of juicy orange and skin on top. So I
bolted the orange in half and bit the flesh out
and then ping the rind back onto the top of
(30:25):
the plate. And then the waiter came rashing over and went, oh,
that's not yours, and before I could say anything, he
whipped it away to deliver somebody else. Somebody's sitting here
probably thinking how did they manage to cut that out?
Speaker 1 (30:44):
Be good for the immunity one.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
That's brilliant, Sandy, Thank you so.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
Much for.
Speaker 4 (30:51):
Maj Mar and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Hey, the next few weeks on the show, we're going
to be doing Milford Money Matters, And this week we're
going to be kicking off by interviewing the lovely Murray Harris,
head of Key We Save It and Retail, and he's
going to be here to answer questions and just have
a little chat and break down a few myths about
when it comes to money. But just before we get
(31:16):
into it, remember this is information to help you understand
more and it's not actually financial advice. Now, medi and
I not experts when it comes to finance. I think
we'll clearly say that. So we're joined by head of
Key We Save It and retail from Milford Murray Harris
get I married.
Speaker 2 (31:33):
Hey guys, thanks for having me. Thank you so much
for coming in pleasure. This is a big thing for
people is figuring out what to do with their money.
It is I.
Speaker 9 (31:41):
Mean, key we save It could be people's biggest asset
outside their house, and for some people it might be
their biggest asset if they can't get on the property ladder.
So it's really important.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Well, Meddie and I were just saying earlier to each other.
You know, particularly in New Zealand, owning property is you know,
deemed is the ultimate when it comes to assets. But
how important is that diversification?
Speaker 9 (32:02):
Yeah, we look, it's really important. I mean, yeah, there's
the fan that you know, the key we dream of
owning a family home, but you know, with with young
families and getting on the property letter that might be
a challenge. So you can start your journey early by investing.
Investing is a lot easier than people think it is.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
So, and this is the thing because a lot of
people here investments and stocks and bonds and all the
rest of it, and they start to freak out a
little bit it doesn't necessarily make sense for them, but
you're saying it actually is quite easy for people.
Speaker 9 (32:30):
Well, we make it easier. Yeah, right, So that's our job.
So we're fund managers, so we take care of all
the decisions around watch stocks and bonds and which asset
classes to own and what type of risk you want
to take, and so what we want to do of
these series the next few weeks is give your listeners
some tips and some help around you know, where do
you go for help, what sort of things can you
invest in? What sort of risk can you take? Because
(32:51):
it doesn't have to be risky because a lot of.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
People are kind of living in the here and now,
especially at the moment, with things as time as they are.
They're really just focusing on how to get through the
next couple of years in terms of money and finances.
But how important is it that people really do properly
future plan? Yeah?
Speaker 9 (33:08):
Well, look, I mean people think about the retirement, right,
that's the goal. People want to put money aside for that.
But look, with Kiwi Savior, you've got the ability to
put some of that money towards your first home. So
you know, it's not just about the long long term.
It can be short term and look, investing could be
as short term as saving for the next holiday rather
than putting it in a term deposit or a bank account.
(33:29):
There are short term investments that are lower risk that
can help get you there quicker.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
See.
Speaker 1 (33:33):
I wouldn't even think of that. I'd always think it
needs to be something really big and it's really long term.
But to know that you can break it down into
those smaller goals, that's really interesting.
Speaker 9 (33:42):
Well, that's what we want to do over the next
few weeks. Just help your listeners realize and you know,
how can they go about doing this themselves or getting
some help to do it?
Speaker 2 (33:49):
Are people doing? Can we savor the right way at
the moment, do you think?
Speaker 9 (33:53):
I think by and large it's been very successful. Three
point two million kiwis in it. The challenge is probably
people aren't contributing enough and they're not really probably going
to have the retirement they dream of at current contribution rates, and.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
Lots of people are just in their automatic fund that
they got put into when they first signed up, right,
and they don't shop around the defaults.
Speaker 9 (34:12):
Yeah, now you've got to do your homework and do
your research and look, make.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
An active choice.
Speaker 9 (34:17):
The default fund might be fine for you, but at
least do some research and make that active decision.
Speaker 1 (34:22):
So over the next few weeks, you know, we're going
to crack down on some of the misconceptions and the
big myths when it comes to money. Just putting on
the spot here, what do you reckon is one of
those biggest misconceptions.
Speaker 9 (34:34):
I think it's around risk that if you put your
money in the share market, you might lose it. And
that's a typical key we thing because eighty seven everybody
knows somebody, their parents, their grandparents, and Auntie's uncles lost
their money in the share market and all they've done
ever since is invest in property. So let's crack some
of those myths and show you listeners that investing and
diversified assets and financial markets can be safe, brilliant.
Speaker 2 (34:56):
So, Murray, you and the team are going to pop
in over the next few weeks. So if anyone does
have any burning questions anything they want to know, flick
us a text FO four eight seven. You know how
to get in touch and we will address these over
the next few weeks with you and the team Murray
looking forward to it.

Speaker 1 (35:57):
It is cool, it is. I've been absent with my
hockey te this season, but I haven't really hit the
call up, particularly.

So do you do that in the evening than the day.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
Well, I can tackle this, then, Yeah, you take it
the night before, okay, mostly because you actually never really
know what time the.
Speaker 1 (36:40):
Trucks because sometimes I I'm really early, right totally.
Speaker 8 (36:44):
And what about when you were working earlier morning hours?
Did you do it the night before as well?
Speaker 2 (36:48):

Speaker 1 (36:52):
The that's true, you'll wake up the neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
Yeah, so definitely night before if I remember. But in
all honesty, you often forget what it's more of a.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
Look at him trying to claim it.
Speaker 8 (37:04):
This one was submitted by someone else who works in
the office. Sneaking food into the cinemas.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
Mess, Mess, I literally did it just the other day.

rocet check and that you snack people?

avoid it at all costs.
Speaker 1 (38:05):

that like lock you in and then the classical music
starts playing, all the jazz. Have you guys been in
one of them? And I'm like, this is like a
horror film totally, And I'm gonna get logged in here

You know, I know, like and it just feels.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
Right now you've given.
Speaker 1 (38:30):
Now you've given, guys, that's safe, it's fine.
Speaker 2 (38:34):
You're not gonna get in there. It's just a weird
