We just as the news was playing, we caught up
on a couple of the fight scenes.

Speaker 1 (00:26):
Michael Joi White's been it.

Speaker 4 (00:29):
Just because later on in the show, Michael joh White's
going to join us. Jerry's gonna ask him a very
brave question, and I need you to keep your ears
peeled for that one, because I think hadd he's seen
some of the fight scenes that Michael Joi White was in,
may not have asked him that question.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
He just seemed like such a nice guy, isn't he?
This is our thing, but capable of extreme violence. I
have got another question as well, which I've just considered
just watching some more fights, which because obviously we spoke
to him yesterday on the podcast, but I'm wishing that
I don't know, I'm wishing that I asked him. There's
one or two questions. But what a lovely man? Yeah,

(01:06):
a lovely man considering he could if you Yeah, great guy,
good looking sucker too. Yeah I never saw his abs, sadly.

Speaker 5 (01:13):
No I should ask them. Damn it always the case,
isn't that he is absolute idiot?

Speaker 1 (01:21):
Diehan? What joins us as well? So much? Coming up

Speaker 3 (01:27):
This morning, Jerry and Mni the hold Ikey Breakfast.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
How's the best of the life going, MANI because famously
jeffs away jiffs away your partner giefs away till Tuesday
next week?

Speaker 4 (01:40):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I have still not eaten a vegetable, yes,
because we can start there, so no vegetables consumed since
she's been gone.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
Are you sure you're not going to get scurvy? I
am worried about that. Just could you just want to
kill you to suck on a lime every now and then?
Feel free to bring one in.

Speaker 4 (01:57):
But since I'm not going to see you again till
a Tuesday, I may well get scooby.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
How's the tongue, because that's the first time that you're
getting scurvy? Tongus? Fine?

Speaker 4 (02:04):
When she lift foot out hours? How long does it
take to get scurvy? Isn't it like a six month seavoyage?

Speaker 6 (02:08):
Weeks apparently weeks to get scurvy? Question without warning? We've
had we've had a couple of bottles of red wine
over the last couple of days. Is that going to
help cure scurvy?

Speaker 1 (02:19):
Like?

Speaker 4 (02:19):
Well that, let's find out another one there, Jerry, good quick,
let's find out there's only one. In fact, this is
life for dead stuff there, Jerry. So if you could
just which everyone catches your eye?

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Read? Though I want to should we go with the
Chateau de la More ninety seven Merlow? Yep? Yep?

Speaker 4 (02:37):
That one looks like it came up a part ship.
That bottle looks like it's got scurvy? No, yeah, so yesterday?

Speaker 1 (02:42):
And if I don't know, am I the only one
who does this when my missus is away? Two things
that I do?

Speaker 4 (02:46):
One is I will watch sports documentaries to the Wills
fall off.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
It's all the.

Speaker 4 (02:51):
Stuff that you just she doesn't want to watch. And
now she's gone, I can just I can just let
loose on Full Swing and basketball doc as basketball ones.

Speaker 1 (03:01):
I was going to say, how weird do you go
on the on the sports doc o? No, no boring?
That you go boring. Yeah, yeah, really deep into one thing.

Speaker 4 (03:11):
I watched Game two of the Lakers Rockets yesterday as well,
so that is one thing. The other thing that I
do is I clean way more than when she's the
way when she's home.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
And I don't mean like I do the dishes.

Speaker 4 (03:24):
I mean the deep cleaning stuff that hasn't been done
around and it's I think it's an if.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
It's a proved myself. I'm not a massive piece of shit.
Right it's not working. Good luck. And then yesterday Fellas
you'll be proud of me.

Speaker 4 (03:35):
I went for a run, fresh off the back of
going for a run the other day, getting caught out
in the hailstorm. Was really really struggling, chugging along and
was overtaken by differ. End of the show, William Wado
didn't even notice me he was running.

Speaker 1 (03:50):
I saw a later on on social media he.

Speaker 4 (03:52):
Ran over ten K's and it looked like he could
have done forty When he comes past me.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
He's running ten k'sous a lot. I think it's quite
a lot ks to day. I don't know if that's
great for for you. Looks looks great. He's got a
good rog doesn't It bounces, doesn't He He's very bouncy.

Speaker 4 (04:09):
He was having a full yarn when he came past me. Mate,
I was like, this is I've got a long way
to go. Made me feel like quitning, but I didn't.
Stayed in the fight. Last week ran five k's. Yesterday
ran four point five.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
Now you might be wondering, why is it what happened
stopped the bottle station? Now, wow, that the first time
that's ever happened in the history of running. I don't
know if olydiad ever suggested that sort of stuff. I
do wonder that.

Speaker 4 (04:41):
And the look on the woman's face when I came in,
because I was mid run. I literally just stopped my
music and walked down, and so she must have gone,
my god, like, how bad does this guy need a
darry that he's running here visibly sweeting, red faced?

Speaker 1 (04:58):
Wow, because you could have just done your and then
finished your run and then going for a walk to
the deary and that would have been more steps.

Speaker 4 (05:05):
But the theory is on the way back to my house,
so it's like, I'm not going to run past the diary.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
And they walked back. Okay, So yeah, so did you
put that did you run with the pack? Did you smoke?
Did you light up? Did you buy a lighter as well?
Did you smoke a dry as you were running? I've
never seen that number before.

Speaker 4 (05:19):
This was the end of the run, and I just
walked home and had a dirrect and had a.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
Little post post run recovery session. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (05:25):
Wow, A couple of questions coming in. How many ran seconds?
Since I knew that was I knew that would betimes?

Speaker 1 (05:32):
Did you jacket? Look, I don't know if you need
to answer those, great, because I'm not going to do it.
Maybe later in the show. No, definitely not later in
the show. What about during the podcast? Not at quarter
past sex? No?

Speaker 4 (05:44):
And again that that that was the subject of yesterday's
Jerry's Theories, And I got a remind the listener that's
not about what the actual answer is, you know, it's
just about what Jerry thinks it is, which was what
sixteen point six?

Speaker 1 (05:55):
Sixteen point six? I thought in the time that it's
seven nights? Yeah, your partners.

Speaker 4 (06:00):
Yeah, I still can't wrap my head around the point six.
What constitutes are point six?

Speaker 1 (06:05):
I think you know exactly what khat are? Point sex?
You wait till you get to Tuesday morning. Then you'll
know what point sex is. Point sex is very unfulfilling.
You'll know when it happens there. I think fourteen, fifteen
and sixteen you'll be all unfulfilling.

Speaker 3 (06:20):
Jerry Edmond Night the hod Ikey Breakfast.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
Bad news as I've opened the nineteen ninety seven Chateau
de la mort merlou Ah. Well, as always the cork broke,
which seems to be the case with all of these
old bottles of red wine. The bottom are opening. The
bottom of the cork's always just so soggy from wine.
This one's not only sogy, it looks like it's sort

(06:44):
of crystallized. It's it looks like it's got court side
at the bottom of it, which interesting. Scrape that off.
I mean, if you've just joined us and you're wondering
why we're opening bottles of red wine from nineteen ninety seven,
these your own business. These are all been recovered from
my dad's wine cellar as they move house, so he's
got to get rid of all of this wine that's
been sitting there. Some of them, I mean this one

(07:05):
that's in front of me here, for example, the nineteen
seventy seven Montana pinotage that maybe he bought in to
celebrate my birth because that was the year that I
was born. That's a good point. So a lot of
these bottles have just been there forever. He just put
them down on the cellar and then just forgotten about them. Mhmm.
So we're opening them and we're drinking them. I mean,
that's the least we can do.

Speaker 4 (07:25):
Really, yep, and you've just opened that one has a gone,
it's whiffy.

Speaker 1 (07:30):
Who knows. It's the worst one so far hundred because
we've had the Pinfold's been one to eight that was
drinkable yesterday, that was very drinkable, yees.

Speaker 7 (07:38):
Today.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
Yeah, the wolf Blast black label eighty two, we got
through it. It was worth two hundred and fifty five
dollars that bottle of white to Yeah, I.

Speaker 4 (07:47):
Know, because I'm not paying tw hundred and fifty bucks
to that. In fact, theater charge me twenty five for that.

Speaker 1 (07:51):
Orld have been spilled. I don't know if we're going
to be able to drink this. Okay, Well, let's tip
it out and see how I go.

Speaker 4 (07:56):
Oh, I couldn't find So for the last two days
we've been using a coffee plunger filter as a Oh
you've still got it.

Speaker 1 (08:03):
I was gonna say, I thought that's thrown it out. No,
but you've got the vase, which is good. I've got
the vase. Yet we don't have a decanda. We've just
got a vase. Would shock you? Would it shock you'll
learn the studio does not have a Decantor would it
shock you that? Also?

Speaker 4 (08:20):
I don't know that that. Oh yeah, okay, we're back
into the blood in your own.

Speaker 1 (08:24):
Sort of if you've ever if you have ever.

Speaker 4 (08:29):
Thrown tires onto a silent stare, it's kind of the
color of the water that comes out of that tire.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
Ah yeah, it's either there or I would describe it
as the kind of thing that happens if you're about
to have a colonoscopy. Oh yeah, you have to take
some things before you have your it's colonoscopy. Read that's
what it is. Okay, Oh it's not smelling good. I'll

(08:58):
tell you this is. I'm not I don't know how
many This is very mature. I could smell it from
here ninety seven Chateau. It kind of smells like.

Speaker 4 (09:10):
It kind of smells like you know those things on
the bar where you pour all your drinks and then
after the shift you get to tip that thing out.
That's that's what that smells like. What year is it again, dre,
It's ninety seven what we are doing? Ninety seven was
the best year of your life, wasn't it?

Speaker 1 (09:23):
Ninety seven was up there? Ninety seven was a year
that I started on television. Yeah, I mean, I don't
know if I described it as the best year of
my life, but it was. I don't know if the
Chateau de la More it's from the vender Paidoc paid
which is an area where'd you look at it, isn't it?
Because he comes from Europe racist and she speaks some French.

(09:46):
She speaks as well as German, so Paidoc So I'm
not sure if you guys are aware of that region,
but it is a region in France. Oh, there's blacks.
I think it's got the black mold this thing.

Speaker 4 (09:59):
Let's find out it might be caught trippy, rude, what
are you up to in nineteen ninety seven?

Speaker 6 (10:03):
Nineteen ninety seven, I remember very well when Princess Diana
passed away, dude, so do I I remember I was
about to watch a New Zealand cricket update with some
friends at my Halls of Residents and breaking news Princess
Diana has been in a car accident. And then within
the next hour that was breaking news, Princess Diana has
passed away from a car accident.

Speaker 1 (10:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (10:24):
I remember going into the lounge. Know, I was a kid,
and my mum was in tears on the Florida Lounge
and I was like, what happened? She goes Princess Diana died.
I was like, Oh, do we know, isn't it?

Speaker 1 (10:34):
No, I don't know. Princess dies. She from WY two.
She just remembered.

Speaker 4 (10:38):
I said, Oh, I don't really care, and that I reckon.
There's old dude's name is Jerry Pauls the nineteen ninety seven.
Gott to be honest in the glass. That looks better.
So let's let's play a bit of Lincoln Park, which
I think is the perfect pairing for a ninety seven.

Speaker 1 (10:52):
Yeah, it could be the end of us, and we
see how this goes so far this week? What do
you think about that? Yeah, that one's a doozy. I'm
not sure about this one.

Speaker 3 (11:04):
Hundred Jerry in the Night, the Holarchy Breakfast.

Speaker 1 (11:09):
What is this wine? You've poured me this out of
John Wells my father's wine cellar, the Chateau de la
Mont nineteen ninety seven, Merlow. It's from the Paidot region.

Speaker 4 (11:22):
Should I be concerned at all that there are crystals
on the bottom of the cork here?

Speaker 1 (11:28):
Yees staleic types. My gut feeling would be yes. Looking
at those star types, it looks like side. It looks
like something that you would find in the white time
of caves are in a watch? Perhaps? Yeah? So have
we got Could someone google that? Because maybe we shouldn't
drink it? Maybe it's got the black death? Is this
black death in a bottle?

Speaker 6 (11:48):
This wine got something here? It says a crystallized cork
is not a bad sign for red wine. It's often
a sign it is high quality, minimally processed. And these
are actually called wine diamonds.

Speaker 1 (12:01):
Don't say you don't learn something on this show. Okay,
doesn't say that it makes it taste good, but even
heard of a wine diamond before?

Speaker 4 (12:07):
Sure, I haven't this smells like vinegar, like if you
were going to use vinegar for like cleaning product.

Speaker 1 (12:16):
It does about it, doesn't it. In fact, if you
were to put baking cider in this thing. You'd make
a great volcano.

Speaker 6 (12:20):
I think I can already taste it, and I haven't
tasted it.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
I'm going to have it. I'm going to have a home.
Here we go.

Speaker 4 (12:30):
Okay, it doesn't taste as bad as it smells.

Speaker 1 (12:33):
Really good, very drinkable.

Speaker 6 (12:34):
It's one of them, another one that's my favorite of
the week, I know.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
But why does it smell so dusty like this smell?
It's full on to the nose, isn't it. But actually,
once you've had a couple of SIPs, actually you start
to really enjoy that.

Speaker 4 (12:46):
It smells like if I was on an old wooden
ship that was just shipping vinegar across the sea, and
a few of the barrels it's spilt. That's what it
smells like. Yes, But then if you can block your
nose and taste.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
It with hence our sea seck vomit and someone's given
birth to a baby just around, just in the next
door cabin, sort of sort of vibe. I you know what,
this ninety seven Chateau de Lament Merlot. I'm saying it's
the best one so far. Good, not great, you reckon,
it's not. I think your Pellete's not very sophisticated. I

(13:19):
think that's part of the problem. Oh you reckon.

Speaker 3 (13:23):
Jerry and the Hodiarchy breakfast.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
So you latest sport headlines things to export Ultra the
beer for here Bangaladiers share won the One Day Cricket
International decider against New Zealand by fifty five runs Chittagong.
Damn it. Yeah, I'm gutted up thinking about maybe just
leaving the show because I'm so upset about it. That's
distraught about that. The host posted two sixty five eight

(13:47):
and dismissed the visitors for two ten to take the
series two to one. Dean Foxcroft, who's that top score
was seventy five missta fora Raman took five wickets for
the Bangers. Meanwhile, Susie Bates will retire after the T
twenty World Cup in England. During a June in July,

(14:08):
the thirty eight year old former White firm captain's been
at the forefront of a revolution in the women's game
for two decades. Not good. Not be good to go
out on a high, wouldn't it capable play? The decision
to start Lester Fanganuku at open side flanker rather than
the midfield for the Crusaders against the Waratahs in tonight's
debut rugby match at christ Church's new indoor Stadium has

(14:29):
drawn interest across that competition. Could you write a longer sentence? Wow? Ruder?

Speaker 6 (14:36):
Yep, I could actually smarty pants?

Speaker 1 (14:39):
How many words has that sentence got in it? One
of them is less t two words in that sentence, wow.

Speaker 4 (14:45):
One of them is lester and one of those fa
So that kills look super rugby, you super rug super Round.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
Great initiative, great idea, that's very cool. Four people that
are going to be.

Speaker 4 (14:54):
There, but they have created matchups that no one wants
to sit like. I'm a Crusaders fan, I'm not going
down to super Round. Do I want to watch Crusaders
Warritars tonight? I mean I will, But you know, wouldn't
you rather have had Crusaders Highlanders or Crusaders Blues?

Speaker 3 (15:13):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (15:13):
They local derbies. I don't know why they didn't do
local derbies. It's a good question. I think because they
wanted to bring more people from around New Zealand to
watch their teams. But there's no Waratars fans coming around. Actually,
why did they do that? I think there's a lot
of questions as to why they do anything. Super Arabi's
Super Rugby, isn't it. I read an article yesterday from
the chair or personhood been quoted the chairman of the

(15:36):
Hurricanes and he's turned up. He's a businessman and he's
turned up and bailed them out basically I think last year,
and they owed a few million dollars. He said that
this is completely unsustainable, the Super Rugby competition. There is
no way of making money. Even the competition leaders, the
teams that are doing really well are losing money.

Speaker 4 (15:57):
What if people if everyone went back to the stadiums,
if every game was a seller, then sure that would
make money.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
You think so. But he said that they're hands strung
by a whole lot of things around which players they're
allowed to choose. It's all centrally contracted by the New
Zealand Ruby Union. There's a whole lot of slightly boring
administrative stuff yep, which a lot of people probably don't
know about, which is impeding the progress of that particular
rugby competition. We love that stuff.

Speaker 4 (16:26):
One of those things is scheduling games no one cares
about on what's ostensibly supposed to be your biggest weekend
of Super Ruby.

Speaker 1 (16:31):
There's that and also the fact that every single franchise
doesn't decide when the games are played. Yeah, so it's
all decided by Sky who televised it, and the Rugby Union.
So you have to play your games at seven and
they're trying to attract families and that's impossible at seven
o'clock at night in the winter in New Zealand. Right,
what's that witching our Well, like by the time you

(16:53):
get out of there, realistically you're talking about and get
back home. You mean, yeah, you're home at nine to thirty. Now,
if you're traking, an eight year old can't be going
home at nine thirty. Eight year olds don't go to
bed at nine thirty. They go to bed at eight.

Speaker 4 (17:04):
Then, on top of that, between all of the ticket
prices and all the food that and then the fact
that there's no entertainment outside of just the rugby that's
on there as well, it's not an attractive proposition, is it.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
No, and it's nobody seems to care. Yeah. Dame Lydia
Coe is tied for twenty seventh more sports headlines for
You and even path through seventeen holes of her first
round at the opening women's golf major of the year
in Houston. She's five strokes off the lead.

Speaker 3 (17:31):
Jerry and Mini the Hodikey breakfast.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
So the Warriors are heading to Wellington looking to make
it three wins in a row when they take on
the Dolphins tomorrow night. They sit second on the table
behind the Panthers year second on the table after victory's
over the Storm. Great game that was and the Titans
in the last couple of weeks. The tab have got
the Warriors's favorites as you'd expect and joining us on
the phone now friend of the show, massive Warriors fan,

(17:55):
Wellington stalwart and local although it lives in all no
I die Hendwick morning.

Speaker 7 (18:01):
Die, good morning.

Speaker 8 (18:03):
I am.

Speaker 7 (18:03):
I am chatting to you live from a sauna in
West Auckland as I heard a rain teaming down and
I'm watching a replay of last night's Canberra Raiders versus
West Tigers game. Gearing up for this Warriors game. A
bit nervous because the Warriors only have a thirty six
percent win record in my hometown of Wellington. I'm really

(18:25):
hoping we can get it done on the weekend.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
What's the sauna temperature at just quickly die because I
imagine it's not easy broadcasting from a sauna.

Speaker 7 (18:34):
No, I'm sitting at fifty five degrees in an infrared one.
It's a little sort of it's just sound boosts as well.
You know, you've got a multitask when you're when you're
in when you're in west Auckland. But there's no better
way to warm up for a great, great weekend of
rugby league.

Speaker 1 (18:55):
How the Dolphins traveling this year, die, I can't really
get a read on them, No, I need to can, right.

Speaker 7 (19:00):
I mean, we're we've got the wood on them coming
into this game. We're coming off two wins, they're coming
off three losses. However, they've got such an attacking team
like where I worry where people that are going to
cause us troubles Old Herby Herbie in the centers who

(19:21):
it's an Zach round and no one could look more
like a World War One soldier than that center. And
of course they're fullback camisod Wi Fido, who's just amazing.
I think we've definitely got the wood over them. In
the forwards, we've got we've got a sort of a staunch,
settled pack and It's good to see web is sticking

(19:42):
with c h T and Tanner Boyd in the halves.
That's going to change next weekend when Luke Metcalfe is
available and the only guy to drop out for US
is Charms Nicol Klukstad. And we've seen Taine to a
picky at the back, but now with those Dolphins, they're
hard to pick because when they get on a run,

(20:02):
they're very hard to stop our scoring points. So defense
is going to be key for the Warriors.

Speaker 4 (20:08):
What about playing in Wellington? Die You would have played
a few games in Wellington obviously mentioned the record, but
what's going to be different about playing at the Caketon.

Speaker 7 (20:17):
Well I was looking at the weather. It's actually meant
to be relatively settled Sunday scene seems to have a
lot of wind coming in, but the cake Tin is
pretty swirly. It's going to be sold out. It's that
it was the first game of the round to be
sold out, so that's awesome. It should be a great atmosphere,

(20:38):
but it's it's held a bit of a curse.

Speaker 8 (20:41):
For with the rugby shaped ball.

Speaker 7 (20:44):
I know the All Blacks have its struggle down there.
The Warriors have had a bit of a struggle down there,
but I'm confident that the cattle are going to show up.
They're going to support the team, and I reckon we can.
I think it's going to be a temp win to
the Warriors.

Speaker 1 (21:01):
Dihane, What is it? Something about the meridian lines. Maybe
the fault line is running through Wellington. It's hard to
work out exactly what's going on, and I do wonder
as well. I'm always concerned when the Warriors travel away.
Are they doing a lot of extracurricular work? Are they
doing a lot of school visits, are they visiting Madi,
are they laying reads at the term of the unknown Soldier, etc.

(21:23):
That can be distracting sometimes.

Speaker 7 (21:25):
Hey, you raise a very good point, because I think
we actually we tend to struggle in the big rounds
and I don't when when there is a lot of
extra curricular activity going on, and I'm not sure whether
we sort of lose our focus a bit, whether we're
away from our home ground. And that's what I mean.

(21:48):
I'd always stress out as a fan is leaving your
home ground to travel around the country. You're almost sacrificing
home games. However, I have faith in people in the
four district that they are going to show up and
they are going to they're going to cheer the Warriors
home to a victory.

Speaker 4 (22:07):
Is there any truth to the rumors swirling around the
rugby league circles that the Anzac fixture was taken away
from the Melbourne Storm because they were giving us too
many hidings And then they tried to give it to
the Gold Coast Titans, who also gave us a hiding,
and now they've dished up the Dolphins.

Speaker 7 (22:22):
Yeah, I'll buy into that. I'll just buy into whatever
way we can get a bloody win. To be honest,
it was completely embarrassing when we're up against the Storm.
I quite like the fixture because it was always nighttime
and they had all the anzac they ceremony in that.
I reckon. I personally think that we're building a really

(22:42):
good rivalry with the Raiders, and I reckon the Raiders
would be a perfect a rivalry long term because the Dolphins,
I mean, I barely think they should be in the
comp to be honest, Like this state of them, really,
this state of them Police CAFUSI and is is absolutely
horrific here. I mean, it's embarrassing they should really take

(23:05):
a look at themselves.

Speaker 1 (23:07):
Die him would thank you very much for your time,
go back and enjoy your sauna.

Speaker 7 (23:11):
I will have a beautiful weekend.

Speaker 3 (23:14):
Jerry and Mania, the Darchy breakfast.

Speaker 2 (23:17):
Jeremy Wells and the Niste it the Hdarchy Breakfast.

Speaker 4 (23:22):
Every now and then, Fellas someone will ask me, what's
what's it like working with Jerry?

Speaker 1 (23:28):
What's Jerry really like?

Speaker 4 (23:30):
And for the most part I tell them, you know,
you're gonna be honest. He's a fraud, he's you know,
he's all the things you think. But every now and
then you're reminded that you know, the kids still got it.

Speaker 1 (23:42):
The old dog's still got it.

Speaker 4 (23:44):
And when you asked Michael Jai White just before one
of the bravest questions I've ever seen in certainly in
New Zealand media history. Have a listen to this, Michael
Jai White, Michael what actually good question?

Speaker 1 (23:59):
What do we call you? Do we call you Michael Jai?
Do we call you mj Do we call you Mick?
Do we call you Mickey? Are your mikey? You're Whitey? Well? No,
especially not that last Yeah.

Speaker 4 (24:11):
That is I would say the bravest question I've ever
heard anyone ask you, and that was a true inspiration.

Speaker 1 (24:17):
Yes, said, I'm glad you asked it. I certainly wouldn't
have if you don't.

Speaker 4 (24:22):
If you're not familiar with Michael Jay's were obviously black Dynamine.
I kept crapping on about one of my favorite movies.
There's also in Batman. I think he's the one that
the joker kills at that meeting, and then he's choreographed
basically all of your favorite kung fu fights and movies
ever since. We were just watching him beat the shit
out of some dudes before.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
Yeah, A question though I wish I asked him was
why why do people keep coming at you in ones?
But whenever he's fighting people and he has beaten off
a lot of men, he has beaten off you know,
I mean he beat off ten men. And that scene
that we saw before, I think I was watching a
different scene in jail. In jail, they all came out,
one by one, they came at him and he beat

(25:01):
them off. But I would say about why don't think
it will come at him as a group, because I
reckon ten guys coming at Michael Jai, even Michael Jai
and he's a specimen he is. Would you Whitey, as
I call him, would you come at waddy uh? Personally
after meeting Whitey, lovely guy, I wouldn't come at him.
You wouldn't. I wouldn't come at him. His wife is

(25:22):
in the other room.

Speaker 3 (25:23):
Jerry and the Night Theadarchy Breakfast, So.

Speaker 1 (25:26):
I'm the lead up to anzac Weekend that He's illand
Herald is launching a four part podcast series called Desert Pirates.
The series follows the long Range Desert Group, which is
an elite unit of Kiwi soldiers whose missions across North
Africa helped shape modern special forces and joining us now

(25:46):
on the Hidacke briefast one of the people behind the podcast,
friend of the show. Always nice to hear from you,
Noel McCarthy. Morning, Noel, So tell us for people who
don't know who were the Long Range Group and why
don't we know more about them?

Speaker 9 (26:03):
That's such a good question. Good morning, Desert, Good morning Manaiyah.
Great to be here talking about these Desert Pirates because
they were amazing. This is a small group of soldiers
when it started, almost all of them were New Zealanders
commanded by British officers, and they did extraordinary things in

(26:23):
the North African deserts in World War Two. They were pathfinders.
They did raids behind enemy lines. That's how they got
the pirate's name, the Desert Pirates name. They were cutting
off the supply lines from Italian, from the Italian and
German lines. They were also road watchers. They would watch

(26:44):
the enemy troops coming in across the desert and count
the numbers of men, but also listen out for things
like were they singing, were they whistling? Were their many ambulances?
Because it was really important intelligence that they could then
feed back to HQ. And they were brave.

Speaker 8 (27:04):
You know.

Speaker 9 (27:04):
There was just a small number of them, but the
things they actually managed to do in terms of setting
it up so that the New Zealand forces in North
Africa could eventually outflank Rommel's troops was massively significant, you know,
and we should know more about them. We don't, I think,
because they were overshadowed by the sas. You know, if

(27:27):
you know sort of rogue heroes and mass you know
that TV show and that sort of sense of the
sas as, you know, the elite special forces, which of
course they are, but actually these guys, these Kiwis from
the LRDG. They were doing that eighteen months before David
Sterling started the SAS.

Speaker 4 (27:49):
Now, a lot of the stuff that was doing is
stuff that the Aled Forces had never done before, wasn't it.
They hadn't really fought battals in the disert, so they
sort of had to had to mcgiva things together just
to be able to get across the That.

Speaker 9 (28:02):
Is absolutely right, like they absolutely Maguiverd thinks. And it
was a guy called Ralph Spagnolt who was a British
officer who had the idea for a force in the desert. Manya,
he was this amazing guy, like he was an English
military man, but he was also a desert explorer.

Speaker 10 (28:18):
He wrote a PhD called the Physics.

Speaker 9 (28:20):
Of Blown Fans as you do. And he was the
one who kept going to his superiors in the early
years of World War Two and saying, listen, we need
men in the desert. And eventually it was really only
when the tide started turning against the Allies in nineteen
forty that they listened to him and they said, okay,
you can have a force. And that's where the kiwis

(28:40):
came in, because the call went out from men with
stamina who do not mind a hard life. And of
course it was a whole lot of young lads from
Timaru and Matamatta who signed up. You had to sign
up for this and then you had to be picked.
You had to go through a selection process and it
was pretty tough because they were looking for mcguvers. They

(29:01):
were looking for guys who were mechanics, who had shooting experience,
and who were also incredibly fit because you had to
be because the terrain was so rough.

Speaker 1 (29:11):
Okay, so it wasn't just as simple as doing well
in an Eddie Destrick. So at the crypto infector bern
and military confidence course, that's good tonight. What happened? What
happened Thoughel McCarthy. When they came home, we're talking about
the Long Range DESIT group. Here were they were? They
were They welcomed time as heroes.

Speaker 9 (29:30):
Oh, looks, Jeremy. This is the part of the story
that really touched us because when we were talking to obviously,
you know, time has passed and all of these veterans
aren't with us anymore. So we spoke to their descendants,
their sons and their daughters and grandchildren, and you know
what they all said, They all said, my dad never
talked about it. They came home and they took ordinary jobs,

(29:54):
you know. One of them opened an electronics store in Mathemata.
Another guy, a guy whose voice have in this series,
Frank Joplin. He ended up being the skipper of the
Devenport Ferry for twenty years. Another one of the men
who's in the series because we have recordings of their voices,
so they get to tell their own stories. But another
one of them, you know, he farmed. He married his

(30:16):
sweetheart and he had a farm for the next forty
years of his life. So they weren't necessarily welcomed as
heroes because they just you know, that wasn't the way
they came home and they got on with their lives.
It was only really later, like coming into the eighties
and the nineties and you know, more recent times, certainly
the New Zealand sas like we were lucky enough to

(30:37):
be invited onto the Essays base, which was amazing because
you know, not everyone gets to go in there, and
you can see in their chapel they have a memorial
wall for these guys because they recognize their role as
their sort of forebears. But and Judith Collins we spoke
to because she was at their last parade. In recent

(30:58):
times they've been recognized, honored, but really when they came home,
they just got on with it as you do well.

Speaker 1 (31:04):
The series is called Desert Pirates. Episode one and two
are available now. Episode three is released today, episode four tomorrow.
It's available on the New Zealand Herald, Dot cod On,
is It iHeartRadio and other major podcast platforms. Noel McCarthy,

and that only one school that you went to, the
Nia Stuarts and Keivens.

Speaker 4 (32:10):
That's only because I can't do the quiz, otherwise it
would have been on there months ago.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
And guess what, Pete from Christ Church is on the line, Pete.

Speaker 8 (32:17):
Morning boarding Fellas, how are we Pete?

Speaker 1 (32:19):

Speaker 4 (32:23):
Yeah, got Peter, Here we go. Put us on the board, mate,
put us on the map.

Speaker 8 (32:27):
Well, it's probably a two person game. And that's what
are the questions going to be?

Speaker 1 (32:30):
Like?

Speaker 4 (32:31):
Well, I know, and you were going to call in.
I probably I could have made them a bit easier,
but I haven't.

Speaker 1 (32:36):
So what year were you there, Pete?

Speaker 8 (32:40):
I finished in ninety five?

Speaker 1 (32:42):
Ninety five? Are you're about my age? Pete? Okay? And

the moment?

Speaker 8 (32:48):
I'm a teacher here and crosses.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
There we go. Okay, you're going to breeze through here, Pete?
I reckon. I just loved school that much.

Speaker 8 (32:54):
Yeah, but I'm a pe teacher.

Speaker 1 (32:55):
So I reckon, they're going to dial that back a
little bit. I reckon. There's three sit as there, Pete,
If and you got this, okay, get into it and
see how we go. Let's go chrishing one for Pete
from Saint Kibbins. Pete. Which band's most successful album was
nineteen eighty seven's The Joshua Tree?

Speaker 8 (33:13):
Oh you too too easy?

Speaker 1 (33:15):
Ruder?

Speaker 4 (33:15):
Well, no, that's it's a really hard question. They just
just had a good learning at Saint Kibbins.

Speaker 1 (33:21):
There have been ten Men's Rugby World Cups? How many times?
Is New Zealand one too easy? Ruder?

Speaker 8 (33:27):
I want to say three?

Speaker 1 (33:28):
Yeah? Too easy? Yeah? Who provided the voice of Woody
the Cowboy and Toy Story movies?

Speaker 8 (33:36):
Oh?

Speaker 7 (33:37):
Is it Old?

Speaker 8 (33:38):
The Castaway Guy? What's his name? Hanks?

Speaker 1 (33:41):
Yeah? And that is how I knew it was going
to go. That's how I knew it was going to go.

Speaker 4 (33:47):
Anyone from Saint Kibins would ace this any one of these,
and we've just proved it.

Speaker 8 (33:52):
I'll swipt you there one hundred bucks later on.

Speaker 1 (33:53):
Mate, Yeah, accusations of gerrymandering.

Speaker 6 (33:58):
You're gonna slip one hundred bucks for a fifty dollars
Bunnings Trade badge.

Speaker 8 (34:02):
Hey, I guess so Kibbins on the board.

Speaker 4 (34:03):
That's right, and that's what it's about, guys, about thanks
for playing.

Speaker 1 (34:08):
Friday Peak. There it is Saint Evans. It's on there.

Speaker 4 (34:13):
Finally, finally, what do you mean finally you've been finally
you've been screening calls from Saint Evans for months now.

Speaker 1 (34:23):
I don't tell people that hate snuck through and just
hate it. Don't tell people that.

Speaker 3 (34:27):
Jerry aman Knight The Hiarchy Breakfast The Best.

Speaker 2 (34:32):
Way to catch up on what you missed, The Hurdarchy
Breakfast radio show podcast.

Speaker 1 (34:37):
It's the will we count down the top five things
in a particular order? Well, of course the genre order
is from five to three to one. But yeah, the
genre we've looked at beatus, rivers, manger, pet peeves. Top
five words of twenty twenty five. There's been positions, God,
there's been everything. There's been straights, hangover, cures, storms, last week,

(35:00):
things that you put on your toast.

Speaker 4 (35:01):
Yeah that's right, eggs, I think, oh no, butter, but
but but it was number one. Resounding victory for butter
this week in honor of Takahas stadium opening tonight seven
thirty five, first game Crusaders against the Tars, live and
direct here on Radio Hoda. It's seven thirty five. We
are doing Top five Stadia Stadia. I was just reading
a thing this morning that one end of the car

(35:23):
is not gonna have a stand.

Speaker 1 (35:24):
It doesn't have a stand. Bullshit, I know, I hope it.

Speaker 4 (35:27):
So this is what they did in Forsyth Bar and
it's a bit of a humiliator when they got the
richest coaches parked up one end of it.

Speaker 1 (35:34):
But anyhow is it so they can have concerts in there,
it's part of the staging ghost.

Speaker 4 (35:38):
Also they can put corporate hospitality in there. And yeah,
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (35:43):
Are you calling the stadium a dud before it's even open? No?
Are you calling it a white elephant?

Speaker 4 (35:47):
I will say that not putting a stable in there,
or at the very least a kennel was a massive oversight.

Speaker 1 (35:54):
It was just for the horses. The Crusader horse around,
that's right.

Speaker 4 (35:57):
Yeah, so now you're gonna have Glane hobby horsing around this.

Speaker 1 (36:00):
But the fact that there's not enough room for the
horses to run around the sideline, I think it's a
positive thing because that means that you're right up on
the sideline. And I imagine that the viewing at Takaha,
particularly for rugby, Well, there's just a rugby stadium movie,
isn't It will be amazing, So every seat will be
a beauty.

Speaker 4 (36:15):
Be interesting to see how the turf holds up, because
I know Suncorp gets churned to bits during Magic Ground.

Speaker 1 (36:22):
So it'll be interested because this is the.

Speaker 4 (36:23):
First tests of it, and their first test is every
game of Super Rugby being played on there.

Speaker 1 (36:28):
James's text him and I it has removable seats at
one end. You absolute marpet. Yeah we didn't I say that. No,
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (36:36):
Okay, but yeah, anyway, so one end of it no
standing there.

Speaker 1 (36:40):
Yeah, so removable seats of course, Well it will it
find its way to the top five. Stadia. I notice
you use the word stadia. That is the plural of stadium.
It's not stadiums. I don't think so. Stadiums. I don't
think so, but reach out fact checkers. It feels a
wenkery just to call it stadia. I mean, I would
have thought stadi yms. That's a bit like Olympics an olympiad.

(37:04):
That's a good point.

Speaker 4 (37:05):
But you brought fifteen bottles of wine from your dad's
wine cellar. So are we gonna nitpeck on what sounds angry?

Speaker 1 (37:10):
Exactly? Thank you? They're right, three four eight, three eight hundred,
Hardachey the top five stadia. Sun Corps getting a lot
of votes already.

Speaker 4 (37:22):
The sun cork gets ripped up due to action. There
is no action in rugby. What are the criteria for
a great stadium? What makes the stadium as your local
rugby ground?

Speaker 1 (37:35):
A stadium? Tangata, Tangata to Tangata and boys said.

Speaker 3 (37:39):
There Jerry, and then the hot ikey breakfast.

Speaker 1 (37:43):
It's the Kaha opening this weekend, the stadium in crisis,
brand new covered stadium. We are looking for the top
five stadia.

Speaker 4 (37:55):
That's right, we are we accepting. Actually, let's interrogate the
criteria here for the top five TIERO. I know this
is something you like to do.

Speaker 1 (38:02):
What qualifies a stadia for Hugh Well, I think user
experience is quite an important criteria. Firstly, so how you
feel when you're inside of a stadia? What's it like
as a viewing experience? Experience? Like how far away are
you in certain places are they're blind spots? Have you
got poles and fronded? Right? Are you allowed to smoke poles?

(38:25):
Great point that sort of stuff.

Speaker 4 (38:27):
Okay, what about sort of indoors stadia because I know
when we think as key as we think rugby parks,
But what about like basketball stadia?

Speaker 1 (38:35):
Will you accept a basketball stadium? Absolutely? What about accept
a basketball.

Speaker 4 (38:40):
Stadiu somewhere that I know you've been as well? Will
you accept the best pro shop in Memphis which was
a converted basketball stadium. It's that giant pyramid building which
was built as a basketball stadium and then converted into
the world's largest hunting and fishing shop.

Speaker 1 (38:54):
No, I will not accept that because it's got to
currently be a stadium. Okay, so it has to have
been a stadiu. It now must be a stadium that exists.
I think we could go into stadia historically, and I
think you're starting to get into some dangerous territory because,
for example, here's a text on three for three the coliseum. No, No,
have you seen it recently? It's a piece of crap.

(39:14):
You couldn't host anything there.

Speaker 4 (39:16):
The Colosseum has to be on that list. Was a
great stadium back in the day.

Speaker 1 (39:19):
Yeah, but not anymore. I look at it now.

Speaker 4 (39:21):
You would have to consider the Colisseum and Panathenaic Stadium
the first modern Olympic Olympic stadium in Athens, purely for
its history value.

Speaker 1 (39:28):
But otherwise, what we're going back and what we were
looking at Carlos Park, I mean, for God's sake, it's
got to be stadia that currently exists.

Speaker 6 (39:36):
You're wiping out Carrisbrook.

Speaker 1 (39:37):
Oh my god, you're athletic firstly, Carrisbrook. Yes, and that
would never even get in the top five hundred STADIU.
You're wiping out Lancaster Park. Yes, Lancaster Park with the
Smith City standard. Absolutely, it's got the Richard Hadley end exactly.
You're going to scrub out the Richard Hadley End to
some great corporate hospitality that was on off of there.
But still yes, that's gone.

Speaker 4 (39:57):
So is that Another one of your criteria is do
I know the sea?

Speaker 1 (40:02):
I think corporate hospitality has to be taken into account.
And look what about those stadia that you get And
I've seen some in England that have a hotel attached
to the top of them and you can rent out
a room and it's got a balcony and you can
stay the example, watch five days of cricket. I think,
is it is it Trent Bridge? I don't know? Or
is it somewhere and maybe it's a nodding. Is it

(40:23):
Burmouth Camp? I think, where the hell is that? Old
dude to remember stadiums.

Speaker 4 (40:28):
When I was a kid, my auntie and uncle lived
up the hell from Karrisbrook. I believe the subject is
called the mornings in the morning, so I think morning, mornington, morning, Mornington.
So and from their kitchen, yes, you could see down
into Karrasbrooks. So we would watch the first half of
the game and then in the second half day stopped
checking tickets, So me and my cousins would go and

(40:48):
watch the first half from the the kitchen. I'd sit
on the kitchen think, then at halftime would go down
and go in there.

Speaker 6 (40:55):
That's a beautiful memory my eye, and it makes me
feel like it's very unfair of Jerry to Smiths carros.

Speaker 1 (41:02):
Brook like that. I think, So how those red wines
go for it?

Speaker 3 (41:06):
What?

Speaker 8 (41:07):
No?

Speaker 1 (41:08):
Just nothing? So the other thing, well, the problem with
facilities are important. The problem with Carras Brook and everybody
that's been there will attest to this cerebrale facilities. If
you needed to go to the toilet, you're basically either
going in the in the stands. This is your elitist view, Jerry.
You don't get Carras Brook Carras book writes, Chris and
people pissing on your shoes on the terrace. The facilities

(41:31):
were not They were for Aucklanders to go and use.
But the locals they test on other people's shirts, on
each other's shoes. Mate, what are shoes for if not
for pissing on? What is shoes for? And I've always
said that also, I've got to take into account size,
of course, accessibility for the abled and the disc yep,
those with additional needs. Covering. Some stadiums might be covered,

(41:54):
some might not. Turf quality because turf quality that sun
corp the window that's that's gone out the door, well
hard at the end of at the end of magic ground, Yeah, definitely.
But why is there always hay on the on there?
Because the sun's always shining and what do you do
in the sun shining? Three four eight three oh eight

(42:16):
hundred Hardaki. We'll get to the top five up next,
the top five Stadius is on the back of TAKR
opening this weekend. Does Denton Oval and Hornby cut your mustard?

Speaker 4 (42:25):
Jerry, never been Millennium Stadium.

Speaker 1 (42:30):
That's got that's got the retractable roof, doesn't it Millennium Stadium.

Speaker 4 (42:33):
Chris got his first Passion and Nuggets game at the
old Dunedin Stadium.

Speaker 3 (42:36):
It's got to be up there, Jerry and Mini the
hold Ikey Breakfast.

Speaker 1 (42:41):
It's the Today, we're looking at the top five stadia
and we're thinking about the top five stadia in the world.
You're trying to shoehorn in the top five stadium historically.

Speaker 4 (42:55):
Or you're trying to veto the top five historic stadia.
Although a texts has come through on three four eight
three stadiums is correct in this case as discussing modern
sports facilities, stadia is more historical and academic. MCG definitely
stands out in either instance.

Speaker 1 (43:11):
Okay, okay. If we're talking about the past, we're talking
about stadia. If we're talking about current stadia, then we're
talking about stadiums.

Speaker 4 (43:18):
We've had so many ticks for stadia that no longer
exists that I am.

Speaker 1 (43:24):
I'm gonna host a breakaway top five a rebel top five. Wow,
this is what are you going to do? Turn them around?
South Africa? What are you going to do with us?
Break away?

Speaker 4 (43:32):
I am I'm sick of all the Yeah, we're going cavaliers.

Speaker 1 (43:37):
I'm sick of the red tape. Okay, tell us you
tell us your top five historical stadia. I'd need one more.
Hold on.

Speaker 8 (43:47):
That.

Speaker 1 (43:47):
We're going to interrogate this for a bit longer. We
can interrogate it for long.

Speaker 4 (43:52):
Great, how you guys keep calling sup around? Magic Crown
a lot of jade stadium?

Speaker 1 (43:56):
Here are we accepting Soundshells because somebody suggested the soundshell
and Gizzy covered stage with grass bank that holds about
six hundred people. Of the tall hedges, the fence you reckon.
That's going to make the top five best stadiums in
the world to be definitely in the conversation, pick a
curt A Park is a fantastic, a fantastic cricket ground.

(44:19):
But what you call it a stadium? Will the stadium
has to have it has to be enclosed. To me,
it's got to be all the way around. It doesn't
have to be all like. It can have some gaps,
but you need it needs to have grand stands. I
think that's important.

Speaker 4 (44:36):
Okay, so you will not consider stadium rcadium the two
thousand and six album from the Red Heart Chelli Peppers.

Speaker 1 (44:42):
No, I won't actually mark from the neck?

Speaker 4 (44:44):
Isn't it any love for FMG stadium?

Speaker 1 (44:50):
No?

Speaker 4 (44:50):
No, Really to a park in a great place to
tie up your horse, have a stony big bot and
indulge in some local fucking.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
I don't doubt that for a second. But is it
a sta more of an export ultra guy? Myself? If
I can be honest, why don't you go first there?
Jerry number five Wrigley Field. Wrigley Field in Chicago one
of the great places and actually fantastic if you are
looking for accessibility. In fact, Matt Heath and I bought

(45:18):
some tickets there to go and watched the Chicago team play.
And then next thing you know, it turns out that
we've actually bought places where people in wheelchairs are And
we were helped up and we bought accessibility tickets by mistake,
and a person went and took us to the toilet
every time we went to the toilet, a person on
a white coat? Is that a is it a heck?

Speaker 4 (45:41):
Have you found a loophole there for the best season
because no one would have been sitting in front of you.

Speaker 1 (45:45):
Man, they were good seats. Seriously, I could hear the when,
the when the picture when the ball hit the mite
and it said cuck it went Yep, that's exactly number four.
The MCG, the Melbourne Cricket Ground as of has over
one hundred thousand people can go along. You've got a
great a great study, particularly to watch AFL if you're

(46:06):
into that cricket. You're kind of a little bit too
far away in my opinion. Yeah, you can't tell what's
going on on the pitch.

Speaker 10 (46:14):
Number three Eden Park.

Speaker 5 (46:18):
I've just shoohoorned that one, and then myself okay because
I noticed you've got a phone call from someone before.

Speaker 1 (46:23):
And then you were like, oh hold on, can we
change number three? Did you see did you see next one?
It was like good a neck, how's it going? Did
you see that? Yeah, of course we can put it. Yeah,
normal bumpers off of me. Some corporate hospital there. Number
two Eden Gardens and could cutter yep. One hundred and
fifteen thousand people can get in there and also home
to massive, a big Indian stadium Big Field and some

(46:45):
fantastic turf culture going on there too. Now the great
turf culture is it? Number one and the number one
stadium as voted by you on three four eight three.

Speaker 4 (46:55):
Wimbley of course, one scene of Live Aid yep. And
when you picture your band really taking off and making
it internationally, you picked yourself on the stage at Wembley,
don't you yep?

Speaker 1 (47:05):
And also the greatest ever Football World Cup victory nineteen
sixty six England warning at Wembley.

Speaker 4 (47:11):
Can I rip through my breakaway? Top five of Stadier
that no longer exists?

Speaker 1 (47:17):
Number five the old Dunedin stadium where Chres got his
first passion and Nuggets game back in the day. It's
got to be up there.

Speaker 4 (47:23):
Number four Carlaw Park. Now this is a bit before
my time, but every time I talk to the old
heads about rugby league they say Carloor Park.

Speaker 1 (47:31):
It was essentially a basin slash drain. That was a
newmarket Parnell there, and boy was that play that could
really chop up that was basically mud by the end
of it. Old school, honest rugby league.

Speaker 4 (47:43):
Number three Blancaster Park Ford slash Jades scene.

Speaker 1 (47:48):
It's a weird shape.

Speaker 4 (47:49):
The Smiths City Stand, great, great pitch, the bleachers. I mean,
so many of my favorite childhood memories were from down there,
Gone too soon.

Speaker 1 (47:57):
Number two you would have to consider the Colisseum pan
Ethnaics Stadium, the first modern Olympic stadium in Athens.

Speaker 4 (48:04):
Purely for its great history value. As someone else said,
the Colosseum has to be on that list. Was a
great stadium back in its staf.

Speaker 1 (48:09):
Sure, but I went there recently. There were no toilets
and you couldn't even buy pie, much like Number one
Carrasbrook and people passing on your shoes on the terrace.
Not for everyone, certainly, not for.

Speaker 4 (48:21):
The auckland Elitis, but if you wanted to see some
good gods on as grassroots starts up Footy, then Kara's
Brook was number one.

Speaker 3 (48:28):
Jerry and Midnight the hold Ikey Breakfast. Jerry and Midnight
the hold Iarkey Breakfast.

Speaker 4 (48:36):
I like to talk about it, Fellas, but it is
Anzac Day tomorrow, so I thought now is probably as
good a time as any to address this, particularly because
we don't have time on the podcast today because, as
as you mentioned, for the last week, now, Jerry, what's happening.

Speaker 1 (48:50):
Today foot Job Friday.

Speaker 4 (48:51):
That's right, we've both got comedy feet on our fingers
right now, foot Job Friday on the podcast. If you
don't know, we will. We don't just do a radio show.
We also do a podcast, so you can get undownload that.
But yeah, anzac Dat's moro. I thought I would share
some of the tenuous lenks I have to the New
Zealand Defense Force, as you know, during the first few
years and my Lafe spent on Burnham Military Base. My
father a ten year or eight years soldier.

Speaker 1 (49:12):
Yeah, is it true that I heard your father's main
job and the New Zealand Army was handing the rope
to people doing the crypton factor.

Speaker 4 (49:20):
Oh look, there was a lot more involved in it
than just doing the crypton factor. But he also did
do the crypton.

Speaker 1 (49:25):
Factor and hold the rope and hand it to people.
I think it was the Flying Fox. Actually, oh he
was the Flying Fox might have been. So he handed that.
That was the that was the piece of resaissance. So
at the end you'd get on the Flying Fox and
your Eddieathk tracksuit pants and your eddieask track suit top
because it was quite cold at times, I imagine, and
you'd fly down that flying fox and then if you
held on too long, and so many people did, it

(49:47):
would the flying fox would hit the end and it
would catapult you legs first straight into some mud.

Speaker 4 (49:54):
Yeah right, Well, I don't really have a recollection of that, because,
as I said, I was, you know, a child at
that time. Todd the three four, that sort of area.
But you know, the military has been a big part
of my life. Some of my best friends were in
the military, some of them still in the military. And
back in the day, one of my mates and I
we I don't like, again, when you're in the essays,

(50:18):
you don't like to talk about your time in the essays.

Speaker 1 (50:19):
It's sort of one of the rules. And so I don't,
you know, I feel a little bit uncomfortable about this
to talk about it. Oh well, it's just us man.

Speaker 4 (50:29):
So me and my mate went out and got on
the purse and I don't really have any of where
to stay, and he's like, oh, you can just come
back and stay at the barracks if you want. I
was like, sweet, so were back there now, you're not
technically because I could have been a spy, you know
what I mean, I could have been anyone. But somehow
we managed to get back in there and I just
crashed on the floor.

Speaker 1 (50:46):
Of his room after a big night out. And this
is in the barracks.

Speaker 4 (50:52):
The next morning, I get up and I go to
the bathroom, go to use the facilities.

Speaker 1 (50:56):
Now this is in the barracks, so it's a sheared facility.
How many bits are we talking about here? In the
sparris is one of those ones where you have the
bed and they're all fault We've got a No, we're
not in the Korean War anymore. You've got your own
You've got your own room. Yeah yeah, So I barracks
just being a big norm room.

Speaker 4 (51:13):
Yeah no, no, so no. And so then I got
up and I went down to the bathroom. It's a
big picture of shed facility bathroom, you know, cold concrete
floors and all that.

Speaker 1 (51:24):
No news. The facilities come out of the cubicle. There's
a couple other guys in there.

Speaker 4 (51:28):
Just sigamore into them whatever, hang on, went back into
the room, made myself excuse me, No, I didn't, went
back into the room, made myself scarce.

Speaker 1 (51:36):
My mate went down.

Speaker 4 (51:37):
To breakfast, and already there were rumors of a guy
with a beard being seen in the bathrooms at the barracks,
and they all start going, well, you know who's got beards?
The only people in the armed forces allowed to have face.
We're here like that below the not below the top
lip as the essay is. And so they are all going,
it doesn't really look like the essays and then the

(51:58):
rest of them are going, yeah, but they don't though,
that don't look like.

Speaker 1 (52:05):
So, yeah, it's quite good.

Speaker 6 (52:07):
Can I ask what year this was, because I feel
like that might be an important part of the story,
considering the beer.

Speaker 1 (52:13):
Yeah, it would have been the twelve thirteen fourteen Ranger. Yeah.
So you've just come back for Againistan, Yeah, that's right. Yeah,
and yeah, so the rumors were a fluttering and I
just love the we doesn't look they never do.

Speaker 3 (52:31):
Jerry and Mini the Hodarchy Breakfast.

Speaker 1 (52:34):
Sports Chat with acc head g Lane, brought you by
Export Ultra the beer for him. Welcome to the show,
acc here Glane, who is heading to Takaha Stadium this
weekend for super Round for SUPERB super Round and to
ply your curse across your beloved chiefs.

Speaker 10 (52:56):
Ah, look that's not the reason. Let's not bring my
curse down on what's going to be a eight weekend
of Super Rugby to Kah, Can I do that one thing?
And that is you to Eden Park sicker fans putting
Eden Park on the top five, don't you don't know? Sorry,
you're going to be part of the same brushman night.
Don't you get on this Matt Heath gravy train. I'm

(53:17):
not sitting in that corporate box.

Speaker 4 (53:19):
I've never been in the corporate I agree with you, Lane,
and that's why this morning I launched my own clandestine,
unofficial Top five because I thought that if we can't
have the integrity of the Top five being voted by
the listeners, then I think it's it's illegitimate and I
think it's a stolen vote. And that's why I launched
my own breakoff version.

Speaker 1 (53:38):
Of the Top five.

Speaker 4 (53:38):
Nice because because Jerry in the middle of the Top five, Lane,
Jerry fielded a phone call from do you know who
this guy is?

Speaker 1 (53:46):
Nick? And then all of a sudden, and then, all
of a sudden, number three on the list was Eden Park.
All I've got to do in this situation is count
the votes and look, it's New Zealand's national stadium, Eden Park,
home of some of the greatest spawling moments in New
Zealand's history. Who can forget the eighty seven World Cup victory?
Who can forget the twenty eleven Rugby World Cup victory?

(54:07):
Who can forget the hairy jab six? In the twenty
fifteen Cricket World Cup came Williamson six to beat Australia
in that nail biting game, when then he bit his
face off that who could you get those moments?

Speaker 10 (54:21):
That's nothing to do with the stadium. That's what happened
on the grass. Yeah, exactly happened at Carlor Park. All
of those things it can happen maybe, And.

Speaker 1 (54:29):
I think this happened at Carlor Park. Apart from people
nearly drowning in mud. I think I speak for all
New Zealanders outside of Auckland when I say I don't
really have any memories of Edding Park. I don't think
we can call it a national New Zealand's national stadium anyway.
Lame we're about to are insip. No, I'm not.

Speaker 10 (54:49):
I'm on my I'm on my way to the or something.

Speaker 1 (54:53):
What are you doing?

Speaker 10 (54:54):
No way to the airport? First, first and foremost, And
I'm just parking up there she's just in the Valet
car park. And listen when you valet and you valet
app and in this sand Duke, it's probably the most
humiliating thing you can ever do. So it's not great.
I've been stopped by the valet now heating on.

Speaker 5 (55:16):
Yeah, I booked online, buddy, don't haven't booked on?

Speaker 10 (55:22):
Fine?

Speaker 1 (55:22):
Alarm bells an alarm bells are ringing? Nobody Valet parks
and Duke, I do I do? Check the truck, check
the bird something.

Speaker 8 (55:33):
Oh no, the IM's not going up.

Speaker 1 (55:34):
I got car behind me. Explosives. Don't let a man
get the drug. Dogs, don't let him man make them
walk in the rain.

Speaker 10 (55:42):
This is one of these humiliators, you know, when you
pull up to the arm of the car park place
and doesn't open and then if given behind you and
like Meadi.

Speaker 1 (55:49):
Doesn't register you as a car. That's why you get
a go cut through.

Speaker 10 (55:54):
These people behind me. You super angry, but you know what,
they're probably crusaders fan so I don't care. But I'm
to get out of my car.

Speaker 1 (56:05):
Oh my god, what are you to have to put
the health pttern on the.

Speaker 10 (56:09):
That's all right, I've created such a scene they've opened
it for me.

Speaker 1 (56:15):
We need straight through the barrier. The barrier, and you
do that, it would stop you. You're the only thing
that it would stop.

Speaker 10 (56:24):
The duke is so small and humiliating, but almost under
the anyway, with the stadium, we're doing something quite quite
I don't know you anyway where We're looking to break
into Kaha and do some first so things like first
person in a number three in the home changing ship,
first first people, first people to put down a scrum

(56:47):
and the concourse, you know, just just stuff like that,
you know, just you first to get a passive aggressive
warning from Red Bede for drinking your beer too fast.
First person to get cut off at the bar.

Speaker 1 (56:59):
I'll tell you it's wide open for you. Glane is
first person to get kicked out of Takaha.

Speaker 10 (57:04):
Ah yeah something. I think I'll do that anyway, even
without the challenge. First media person with a cred media
creditation to get removed from Takaha. Obviously Lee Hart Lee
Hart has that honor at Eden Park. But yeah, so
any suggestions would be more than welcome.

Speaker 1 (57:21):
First person to ride a donkey around the outside of
the Takaha Stadium. I mean, I know that they unfortunately
don't have any stables, They don't have anywhere to house
those horses. Maybe walking a dog, first dog, to do
some leavings, maybe.

Speaker 10 (57:34):
In the middle of the Yeah, that's good, that's not
a bad idea. I was thinking, you're buying a hobby
horse from tour World and just riding it around the outside.

Speaker 1 (57:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (57:42):
Giving the Crusaders fans a bird tonight. And my chief's
jersey is with my media accreditation on field access.

Speaker 4 (57:47):
The other thing that's steering you right between the eyes
of Gulane and I would never want to encourage this
on a national broadcast.

Speaker 1 (57:53):
But there has never been a streaker.

Speaker 10 (57:57):
Yeah, no, be gonna go full note. If anyone goes
on with a stitch of clothing, I'll personally go out
there and knock them out.

Speaker 1 (58:04):
Well, your ned too.

Speaker 10 (58:05):
Yep, full nude, and then I'll yeah, and then I'll
I'll strip them nude, and then I'll pick them up
like an officer and a gentleman, and I'll carry them
across the rest of the field.

Speaker 1 (58:15):
God, I can see the headlines today. Real scenes at
Takaha Stadium this afternoon as two nude streakers went toe
to toe in the middle of the park halfway through
the Chiefs Versus drew a game.

Speaker 10 (58:26):
Good for ratings, that's dear, It would be good for
ratings actually, but no, look I wouldn't if I am.
If you are thinking about going on the pitch and
doing a pitch invasion full nude, nothing else is acceptable,
and also have a bit of match awareness as well. Yeah,
do it after a try squad or after the conversion
has been kicked, a little break at the game, have
some match awareness and just lose all your kits.

Speaker 1 (58:48):
For Christ's sake, it'll be talking about these for the
longest time, But is it time to open the streak
of lanes at Takaha? So you've got streak of lanes
that are running down the sides of the stadium, so
you can do it, and you know that that's the
streak aside, So if you want, if you think that
your children shouldn't see nude people for some weird reason,
then you don't have to sit in that particular part
of the stadium. You consider in another part where you

(59:08):
can't see anything. But yeah, have people have people go
down a changing room where they can get changed and
then they can just streak through down the length of
the stadium and then back out the other way, put
their clothes on and away you go.

Speaker 10 (59:18):
You just get it out of your system. Because some
people just love getting nude and just and the crowd
loved people getting new. That's some of my informative memories
as a as a child was like the crowd are
standing for their feet and erupting to someone who's and
I was so confused about why people would want to
get neod and run across the field. I know now why,
But I agree with you, Jeremy, and I hope that

(59:40):
the stadium designers populous, that global, that stadium design people
have taken that into consideration and it would be a
wasted opportunity if they didn't install screak a lanes.

Speaker 1 (59:51):
We've somehow managed to not talk about any of the
rugby which is happening this weekend because basically all of
the New Zealand teams are going to win anywhere else else.

Speaker 10 (59:58):
Absolutely, I I've stuck up. I've stuck our punt on
our first try scorer tonight, being the real vibe punt,
and that list of fighting a nuku to be the
first try scorer, they'll find him out on the wing
suddenly enough at number seven, he'll got down in the corner.
It's paying fourteen dollars love it, one.

Speaker 1 (01:00:16):
For every letter of his name. Thanks for your time,
go on, valet, your duke.

Speaker 10 (01:00:22):
Oh well thanks, you were.

Speaker 1 (01:00:29):
Listening and you are an a New Zealand Valet. Don't
leave it, don't miss duke. Come for God's sake. If
you're listening and you weren't thinking you're watching the game tonight,
well there's your reason.

Speaker 3 (01:00:39):
To Jerry and Midnight the Hodkey Breakfast.

Speaker 4 (01:00:43):
What do we learned today, team, Well, this morning I
learned that this is a long held misconception that I've
had for most of my life, fellas, and that is
that wine ages like wine, and that is not necessarily true.

Speaker 1 (01:00:56):
You know when they say that's age like wine. Note
not all.

Speaker 4 (01:00:59):
Wines age well, and I used to think, oh, it's
because I'm taking You know, when you've got that bottle
of wine in your cupboard that you use for cooking
every now and then, and see you crack the top
off at your poor but about three months later you
give it a snuff and chuck it in your risotto.
Give it another hone that tends to go off. What
I didn't realize is that the ones with the corks
and them they go off to they really go off.
In fact, the ones with the corks are the worst.

Speaker 1 (01:01:20):
And they are undrinkable when that happens. Well, you're talking
about the Chateau de la momp there. I couldn't. I
couldn't be talking about anything else that was no good. However,
the nineteen eighty two Paul Jabbeli na is the Appalachian
Corset metage CONTROLLI we valued at the Secret Bottle Shop

(01:01:41):
in the UK five hundred and forty nine pounds, five
hundred and forty nine pounds, five hundred and forty nine pounds.
So we've drunk a thousand dollar bottle of wine this morning.
Well apparently, yeah, I mean we're ridiculous. Seriously, that's a fluid.
Are you telling me that there is no weight? Why
is stupid? Wine? Is so stupid greed? Yes?

Speaker 4 (01:02:02):
And well the collection again, like I was saying, as
evidence by your father, collecting wine and drinking wine are
two completely different hobbies.

Speaker 1 (01:02:10):
They're not the same at all. Yeah. I think he
thought he was being cultured or something. In the eighties,
I think, or the seventies, I think he thought he's
a man of culture. Yeah, he is not a man
of culture. I can tell you he is. John Wells
is not a man of culture. You know what? Block
him on Instagram too. A couple of a couple of
French bottles of wine in your cellar doth not make
a man of culture. No, it doesn't. And you've always
said that what did you learn this one? And that's

(01:02:31):
what I learned. I learned that giving a couple of
bottles of old wine in your cellar that does not
make a culture man make And you've always said that,
You've always ruder Well, I actually you've got iron guts.
This morning, you could drink motor oil.

Speaker 6 (01:02:47):
I think I'm gonna push back on you, actually them,
And I because I've learned two things today. Number one,
over the last couple of days, I feel like the
wines that we've been drinking as you go along, and
maybe you're onto glass number twolas number three on Wednesday.
It was glasson before, but this particular one was actually
the first class, was the best one.

Speaker 1 (01:03:06):
And it's steadily getting on. Yeah. Funny, isn't it. It's
like the oxygen is hitting the red wine, the tannins
and it's that particularly one's gone weird.

Speaker 6 (01:03:16):
I don't know if I'm going to make it to
ten o'clock. The other good thing that I've learned as well,
because we had Die Henwood on earlier today, he said
that the Warriors have only won thirty six percent of
their games in Wellington, right, which is a bit of
a worry because they're taking on the Dolphins in Wellington
tomorrow night. However, I dug a little bit deeper. The
Warriors have won four of their last five in Wellington.

Speaker 1 (01:03:36):
Okay, so I reckon put the house on it, Okay, right, Yeah,
put your dad's nineteen eighty seven bottle of wine on it.
