Speaker 2 (00:04):
Welcome long to the Hurdarchy Breakfast. It's Thursday, the twenty
seventh of November twenty twenty five. My name's Jeremy Wells,
has a nice Stewart and I've.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
Got an important question to ask straight off the top
of the show. Can you fire someone you've already fired? No,
Mashi in this morning. He's running late, so we've just,
thankfully the show stops itself down. We turned the microphones
on ourself, so he's come in and pushed every single
microphone on so we know that ours are on and
we're off to the races.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
Yeah, there we go. Speaking of off to the races. Boy,
did we have a great day yesterday? Yeah? Oh dude,
And we'll talk more about that in just a moment.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
Oh eding kicking songs off.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
Welcome along to the Hurdarchye breakfast. It's nice to have
you with us on a beautiful Thursday.

Speaker 4 (00:54):
Jerry and Mini the Hurarchy Breakfast.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
Morning. Mes. She that thing's all right, good good, that's
so good.

Speaker 5 (01:01):
How I believe the congratulations is in order?

Speaker 2 (01:03):
Thank you, Thank you so much. I mean, the show
here brought to you by Bunning's Trade raising funds this
November to support men's health. My men's health at the
moment is particularly good.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
This man's never been healthy.

Speaker 2 (01:14):
I'm so healthy. And we raised some funds yesterday for November.
Oh sure, but more than came out at the back
of the Dripe show.

Speaker 3 (01:22):
More importantly, we beat them.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
If you weren't watching on sosh mid went't listening to
the Big Show last night, well, bad luck for you,
because you'll be listening to them on Friday the nineteenth,
in both the morning and the afternoon because we beat them. GoF,
I think we've got the audio. What that sounded like,
gott to.

Speaker 5 (01:37):
Announce Bricky's score?

Speaker 3 (01:38):
First, let's do it.

Speaker 5 (01:39):
Lay it on us thirty three.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
That's three thirty three, three hundred on the back nine.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
What are you groaning for?

Speaker 6 (01:46):
Jason?

Speaker 5 (01:48):
And you've had a double chicked.

Speaker 3 (01:50):
I've had a double chick and double chick.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
Yes, okay, are.

Speaker 6 (01:53):
You ready for it?

Speaker 7 (01:54):
Yes?

Speaker 5 (01:55):
The Big Show got a score of thirty four.

Speaker 2 (02:07):
We did it, Little beauty, We did it.

Speaker 8 (02:11):
Man.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
There were moments. There were moments, right.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
We thought so off one of the I think it
was the fifteenth. We hit three consecutive tea shots into
the drink, only one of them just managed to land
on the inside, and just when knew we had a sniff,
we just finished that round without knowing who had won
or who had lost.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
How does it feel, Jerry?

Speaker 2 (02:28):
You don't know how good this feels. We can lose it.
And the thing about it is, for me, it's off
the back of other victories as well. And I would
have thought that because we have beaten you guys so
many times, it would diminish each time the feeling, But weirdly,
it actually increases it. And I actually feel better about
this victory. And I feel happier about this victory than
either of the other two. The right. Shut it with you, Jerry.

(02:51):
Three from three. Now for the breakfast versus the big shows, I'd.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
Say that's probably it for any of those kind of challenges,
isn't it.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
Are they coming back for a fourth spanking?

Speaker 3 (03:00):
I wouldn't have thought so. I wouldn't have thought so.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
I mean it's going to have to be something non athletic,
I think, because it's not golf and it's.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
Not one hundred meters sprint. We hang on took us
through it, so yesterday.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
I've thought about it so much. So we played nine
hole Ambrose. We had Tom and Charlie come and play
with us.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
Tom hadn't played golf in two years. Awesome, Okay, Charlie
had played three or four times this year. Yeah. Both
were on a on a twenty four handicap yeap, you know,
like so as was I. Yeah. So everybody and our
team could hit the ball, but a lot of hackers
at the same time. We time hackers, We're all hackers. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:35):
We through the first three.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
So they the Big Show who had the dark Horse,
Joe Shucker and Kurt come went and played with them.
They birdied the second hole and we went part part.
They went part burding, and we were.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
Like, oh okay.

Speaker 1 (03:50):
Then we and we heard we got word back from
the court officials that they burdied one of the holes.

Speaker 5 (03:54):
And we're like, oh, geez, I don't know, and is
it true that the Big Show was being fairly reserved
in there emotions. So at this stage you weren't really
sure what they were getting, and the only information you
were getting about their holes were the fact that you
were getting them via vibe because they were playing.

Speaker 2 (04:10):
Oh, yeah, of course I hit of you in front
of us. They were playing in front.

Speaker 1 (04:13):
There was one part five where we were hitting up
on them and we could tell that they weren't having
a good hole. We couldn't see the balls on the green,
but we could see them and the body language was
saying no good I thought, because we only scored three
birdies over the whole thing. And I thought a bogie
would lose this round if either of us bogie, because
anyone who's played Ambrose knows a bogie is you've got

(04:35):
to screw it up pretty bad between the four of you,
A bogie a hole, and I knew if whoever bogies
will lose it. And turns out they did. They had
the same amount of birdies as we did, but they
bo died one hole and that was it.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
The weird part about it, mesh, was we were playing
the last hole and through some weird sort of thing.

Speaker 3 (04:54):
They really outthought themselves on this site.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
They decided that we were going to say what they scored.
So we were on the last hole putting.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
And they'd already finished.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
They already finished. We didn't know whether we were putting
to win or whether we're putting to draw lost, which
is absolutely regular. So when we putting the ball in
the hole, we were like, congratulates.

Speaker 5 (05:19):
Then you had to wait to find out.

Speaker 3 (05:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
I was like, are you guys trying to eke out
four more listeners here by making us and to find
out if we've won the game?

Speaker 2 (05:28):
Ago super weird? Well, we should have boodied the last hole.
It was we all missed about five foot parts.

Speaker 3 (05:35):
Well, I was so angry that they wouldn't tell it.
They were like, oh, we're not going.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
To share our results until we're on air, and I
was like, no, no, I'll tell you right now.

Speaker 3 (05:42):
We are three under coming.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
Into this last one with and then they all stood
there and did their best poker faces. But the giveaway
was when you were lining your put up, Chris ran
around the green to watch your put from behind you.

Speaker 2 (05:57):
You don't do that if you think you won. No,
you stay up in the clubroom with a beer in
your hand. But actually, do you know what when they
actually announced, when Big Sandy's announced the actual results. Before that,
Kesey thought that we're tied. He told me that he
thought that we're tired, so he didn't know. But the
most annoying part about that was well, if we tied,
we need to go to a playoff. But he was like, oh,

(06:19):
I would have been good. We could have just tired.
It's like no, no, no, no no. So we had
to say someone's gonna win. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:25):
So we had to sit down for the most tense
team lunch you've ever had in your life because we
don't know who's won or who's lost. So for an
hour was sitting there with our bloody Landsliders and export
Ultras and we're like, I don't know whether I'm mates
with you or not right now, because I do enough
I want.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
Yeah, turns out with dad. Oh, congrats boys, thanks very much.
I was a little bit worried about that one. I
thought we'd lost.

Speaker 7 (06:47):
Jerry and Mini the hold Ikey Breakfast, The History of Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow,
timar Ru thank him.

Speaker 1 (06:56):
And today is the twenty all right seventh of November. Sorry,
since we've moved the screen to save that up on
the wall there and then the dock, it's the wrong
day about where he's always done a ruter and gone
back and fixed it after we've.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
Already read it.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
Today is the twenty seventh of November, and on this
day yesterday we beat the big show. You had another
round of golf, and so because of that, on the
Friday the nineteenth, we shan't be working on this day.
In two thousand and one, first detection of an exoplanet atmosphere.
On October sorry November twenty seventh, two thousand and one,
astronomers using the Hubbly Space Telescope and nounced the first
confirmed detection of an atmosphere on a planet outside.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
Of our Solar system.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
Exoplanet HD two plus two is fort a hot.

Speaker 2 (07:40):
Jupiter one hundred and fifty light years away.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
By watching the planet transit at star, scientist detected sodium
and its atmosphere, proving weakened study chemical makeup of distant worlds.
It was a major milestone opened the door to analyzing
exoplanet atmospheres and eventually searching for signs of life on
more earthlike planets.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
I find that a really weird. You can look out
and for fire. That's made up of that.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
That that that mat it's got sodium minute, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:04):
That's got that. That that that nap that's that's how
far away moon seventy five, that's brilliant miles.

Speaker 1 (08:11):
That's what they want you to think, man, but it's
actually just a projection onto the onto the roof of
the flat earth.

Speaker 2 (08:16):
All right, yeah, it does make sense. The flat thing
does make sense.

Speaker 5 (08:19):
And is that thanks to the Hubble space telescope. Yeah, yes,
with Hubble space telescope.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
Yeah, pronounce hublow. Thanks very Yeah, what do you think?
Do you think? His name is Michael bubble Matte? Come on,
wake up.

Speaker 3 (08:35):
He's currently thawing out in time for Christmas as well.

Speaker 1 (08:38):
Nineteen twenty four the first Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, The
very first. The parade was held on November the twenty seventh,
nineteen twenty four, Originally crowded to promote Macy's newly expanded
flagship store and kick off the holiday shopping season. That
is the most American thing. A lot of the traditions
that they have over there. You're like, where did this
come from? And it's like, oh, it was a company
trying to promote themselves.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
Oh totally. Yeah. They were the first country to actually
do that. What do you mean, well, America the first
country to promote themselves. Yeah, no countries. There's no such
thing as promoting yourself. Yes, you just were a business. Yeah,
that's advertising. You'd sort of maybe see something in a
weird newspaper, like a tiny little it almost looked like
a story, or like a barbershop cane out just to

(09:17):
tell people you're a barbershop.

Speaker 3 (09:18):
But then they were like.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
What if I ram it down Ivyron's throat. What if
we put balloons and we make people we block off
a street and we have people actually getting excited about.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
Interestingly, no balloons in the first parade. They hadn't thought
that far ahead. The parade featured live animals from the
Central Park. As you do bring that back? Yep, you'd
go and watch that. When't you we're going down the street.

Speaker 3 (09:39):
Cashing the elephant.

Speaker 2 (09:40):
You wouldn't want them to get away. Imagine there'll be
some very thick chains on those elephants in those days.

Speaker 3 (09:44):
How do you walk a rhino?

Speaker 2 (09:46):
They might? In fact, they know a person look alt
ask about.

Speaker 1 (09:48):
That nursery, rhyme themed floats, marching bands, costume Macy's employees,
and it was Santa Claus arriving at.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
The store, establishing a tradition that continues today. Do you
you'd be out of the world when it comes to
Santa parades? When you refuse to go to the Center Parade. Yeah,
fair enough. As a father, I said, no, we're not
going to Center parade. My kids don't even know it exists,
but you don't. Kids don't know it exists until the
adults tell the children that the Center Parade exists. And

(10:14):
I don't think any kids going to school being like, man,
you missed out on an awesome sand to parade on
the weekend. Sucks. Yeah, I eat like maybe two in
my life. I remember there's a lot of traffic, and
there's a lot of standing around, and then you see
some disappointing things and then send it comes through and
that's it. Yeah, it's it's like swimming lessons for toddlers, right,
swimming lessons for children under the age of say two,

(10:36):
and we're far it's basically farther punishment where you go
along on a Sunday morning, hungover and you have to
sing songs in a group and a pool with a
tourny little baby and you sort of jump them up
and down, the kids not letning out to swum. That's
that's pointless.

Speaker 3 (10:48):
Yeah, it's just no, it is.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
It's just punishment, absolutely pointless.

Speaker 1 (10:52):
I only remember one Center parade in waymany when I
was growing up and they were throwing lollies. It was
like a lolly scramble off the floor. But they were
those Macintosh lollies, the Macintosh but they were just pelting
kids in the head. I remember getting absolutely I think
I got a black eye from like an egg Macintosh.

Speaker 2 (11:09):
You don't want to get one of those face who
likes the egg one.

Speaker 3 (11:12):
No, it's born on this day.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
Bill Ny the Science Guy TV hosts a science educator

Speaker 2 (11:19):
He is seventy today.

Speaker 5 (11:20):

Speaker 2 (11:22):
Yes, I believe, sir.

Speaker 5 (11:24):

I'm not a twister guy.

Speaker 5 (12:09):
Twister, Oh my god. Steve Rkle? So what was Steve
Verrkle up to? Steve Circle? Because he was a lovable nerd.
He played a nerd. I'm having a look at some
photos here, all right, So that's Steve Rkle was the actor,
not the character.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
Yeah, Steve r Cole was the nerd character. Family matters.
Jalil White was the actor. Forty nine today, same age
as Jerry. And that is the history of yesterday, Today, tomorrow,
timorroo for Thursday, the twenty sixth of November five. Here's
a text and I'm three four eight three bring back
the seven forty four Pelvic floor. Please just realize my
bedroom performance hasn't been the same since it was dropper.

(12:43):
I mean, you could have kept doing it.

Speaker 7 (12:47):
Jerry in the Night, The Holdy Breakfast.

Speaker 4 (12:51):
Jerry and the Nia, The hold Icky Breakfast.

Speaker 2 (12:54):
Why was there a duck that quicks in that thing?

Speaker 5 (12:56):
I was going to ask you that. Yeah, so you
either edited that or that.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
No, right, okay, I don't know where that's coming from.
I think that was Zoe that eded that. Do you
have that duck soo? No? Maybe? Yeah, yeah, yeah six
thirty time you later sport headlines thanks to export Ultra
the baker here. Former Black Cats coach John Bracewell believes
India is poised to establish global control of T twenty

(13:20):
franchise leagues in conjunction with the international game because of
the entrepreneur's ability to buy teams as well as players.
Does he was John Well, John Bracewill believe that's.

Speaker 3 (13:30):
What he understands. Is that not what's happened anyway?

Speaker 2 (13:32):
Yeah? I thought that is That's exactly what's happening.

Speaker 3 (13:34):
Yeah, I thought that.

Speaker 1 (13:37):
Yeah, you go on, Braces, I thought I thought we
were all on the same page.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
India runs World Cricket.

Speaker 2 (13:43):
Yeah yeah, yeah, I don't think there's anything new, there's anyone, Yeah,
and he runs it. England's kind of in their two
Australia sort of has well, they say they need someone
to play against anyone else doesn't give a crap. No
one else has any say at all, has it nothing
to do.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
That's why it's always confusing, because you're like, well, we're
as good as those teams, but there's not as many
people watching us as there are there's other teams, and
that's why we don't get That's why we've got a
big two month window over our summer where the Black
Caps unt play.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
Yeah, there's no money in the game here. A rare
return on the Trans Tasman circuit for golf of Ryan
Fox as he starts as Australian PGA Championship campaign in
Brizzy this morning. The world number forty one will play
his first tournament in two months, having last appeared as
September's French Open and last played with me and the
old Dicko. Fox, who's won in Australia three times, welcomes

(14:29):
what he considers familiar territory. He's teaming off at nineteen.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
Yeah, this is saying that a lot of people these
days are using the Australian Open as the Australian PGA
Championship is a warm up for chasing the Fox. Yeah,
they're a little bit upset about it over there in
Brisbane because I say it's cheapening the tournament now because
all they're doing is doing that is a warm up
and they'll pull out halfway through the round.

Speaker 2 (14:51):
It's like the ASP Classic with the Australian Open Tennis.
Yeah heard, I've heard exactly that. Supercas driver Ryan w
It is taking a detour at the end of this
year's campaign to venture into open wheel racing. The twenty
one year old will compete in what was formerly known
as the Toy Racing Series fellow Supercars driver Brock Feenie

(15:13):
and Will Brown. How how racing car driver are those names?
Brock Peoenie and Well Brown appeared this year. Woods keen
to give the competition a crack despite limited experience. He's
in Adelaide for the Supercars Final weekend. First practice starts
a five point forty five.

Speaker 1 (15:28):
But Polynesian contingent in the supercars scene underrepresented.

Speaker 2 (15:32):
Yeah. No, they drive around with flags on the sides
of their cars. That's the problem there. Three times Swiss
Grand Slam Singles Champs champion Stan Vavinka will play next
year's ASB Classic for the first time since two thousand. Yep.

Speaker 1 (15:47):
Really, and then you'll pull out in the third round
with a little ankle complaint. Really, and they'll be off
to the Australian Open.

Speaker 2 (15:52):
Is it he or is she? That's he? Okay Stanley, Yeah,
you're right. Flags a lot of drag, a lot of
drag on the outside of a car.

Speaker 1 (16:00):
Hey, coming up next to We're going to rip the
lead off this investigation into Zoe's toast.

Speaker 2 (16:05):
I've gone deep and I've got some shocking allegations to
throw at you.

Speaker 4 (16:12):
Jerry and Midnight the Hodiarchy Breakfast.

Speaker 2 (16:15):
There have been allegations of embezzlement, embezzlement of food coming
out of the fridge here at work, and the allegations
are coming from Zoe and they're being leveled towards our
boss Australium Content Diary, the Pixie Campbell.

Speaker 8 (16:30):
Yes, but actually even multiple people. I think I've seen
Hea go at my vogels.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
Yeah, so you went out the other day to check
your vogels in the fridge and half a lofe lift
man and so you saw the person who sits directly
opposite the fridge.

Speaker 2 (16:46):
They had a bit of insight as to who it
might have been. Is that right?

Speaker 8 (16:48):
I was putting some rigimint on my voguls, and I
hear content directors come closer, Because are those those vocals?
They're quite good, aren't theymily?

Speaker 2 (16:57):
Oh wait wait wait, go back, go back a step here,
those vogue are quite good, like vogels. He's coming in
with some analysis of vogels breed. Yeah, well I was,
I was, you know in Australia.

Speaker 8 (17:06):
Vote Yeah, basically, yeah, I know they're quite good.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
And then you've tried coffee, try Melbourne, that thing.

Speaker 8 (17:18):
The French just starts laughing and goes to those of
Zooe's vogals. Oh he must have thought that they were
from a promotion or something, which fair enough I understand.
But then now I've caught another person having a go.

Speaker 2 (17:31):
People have been munching your vocals.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
Yeah, this raises a lot of issues because you know,
and forgive me for making assumptions, but you know, the
most recent junior member of staff that the portion of
your paycheck that we'll go to a loaf of vocals
versus the portion of say, the bosses paycheck, And he's
robbing you about.

Speaker 3 (17:49):
Twenty five percent of your income.

Speaker 1 (17:50):
This is the issue because they're not giving vocals away
these days.

Speaker 2 (17:53):
No.

Speaker 1 (17:54):
But then the flip side of that is what is
and is not kosher to steal out of the work
for it.

Speaker 2 (17:59):
I say, condos open slather. Yeah, you know, you can
take whatever you want as a connoment because the connoment
sits there, right. And to go and buy, say tomato sauce,
and to buy more tomato sauce.

Speaker 1 (18:11):
And run five different tomato sauces, that's crazy. The other
thing is they can't tell how much tomato sauce if
stolen because it's in a you can't see through the container.
That's actually one of the things about the Remember when
they brought the milk out, we couldn't see through the
milk bottle. Yeah, that one is another one. Your milk's
getting neck the field running there.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
Yeah, I think vogels. That's your vogels. I think that's
eating someone's oats. Those are your oats.

Speaker 1 (18:35):
How about white death? You go under the fridge, you
see a loaf of white death? Would you would you
neck that?

Speaker 2 (18:38):
No?

Speaker 3 (18:39):
Oh, you wouldn't.

Speaker 8 (18:39):
Not.

Speaker 1 (18:39):
I said I'd go white death. I would not go vogels,
though I respect the vogel.

Speaker 5 (18:43):
What's a statue of limitations in on this food? Up
at a situation where I had a loaf of bread
in the as well as though, but nine months later
someone sola slice.

Speaker 2 (18:52):
When did you know nine months nine months for a
life of MAULTI was that playing.

Speaker 5 (18:56):
No, we've got a freezer over there. Ah, right, you
brought that loaf to term, so so you got your
vocals on Monday, full loaf. Yeah, and then within one
or two days pieces that are going missing.

Speaker 8 (19:12):
Well yeah, I mean only two slashes a day and
there's currently half a loaf over half a lof missing.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
Yeah, you're going to get through.

Speaker 8 (19:20):
A day at the end of the week. I'll take
it home, put it in a freezer and have it
over the weekend.

Speaker 2 (19:26):
Okay. Yeah, well now you're not because pixis going to
yeah Pexi's loving it. I saw Pexy the other day.
He's eating his sex bits s experts. He had sexperts
of toast. It's just it's just he does that thing frantically.
He is frantic. He gets the butter and he's he
works it. Yeah, it's like he's it's like he's rooting

(19:47):
up looking for grubs. The middle of the ground butterfly.

Speaker 1 (19:50):
Well, yes, but so I brought a block of butter
and about a week or two ago. You will remember
this and winter go and button my toast. Someone had
taken not a little bit out of the butter. I
get that slice off, a little bit of butter for yourself.
I understand that's going to happen. They took the whole
block that I can't abide by. Leave me at least,
leave me at least enough that I can butter my

(20:11):
next lot of toasts.

Speaker 2 (20:12):
And then I'll go and get another one. Fine, you
got me. But okay, So what's the solution here? What
do we do?

Speaker 1 (20:17):
I think Pixa Campbell's gonna have to go across the
deery and get another loaf of vogels.

Speaker 2 (20:21):
Fright Vogels for Zoe, Justice.

Speaker 4 (20:26):
Jerry and Mini the hold Ikey breakfast.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
How is the brain feeling at the moment? Night?

Speaker 3 (20:32):
This morning? Better than I thought it was going to.

Speaker 1 (20:35):
I had a couple of celebratory export altras last night
after beating the big shirt yet another challenge, and I
thought it'd be a bit slow this morning, But no,
it's feeling good.

Speaker 2 (20:42):
Feel I feel like it's stabilized over what about long
term over the last couple of years? Feel like it's stabilized.
You're thirty four. I am thirty four. Yeah, yes, I
think I feel like it's stay I do. Yeah, okay, Mashi,
how about you? How's your brain going? You're thinking it's
about six than news to ah? Yeah? Are you?

Speaker 5 (21:02):
I reckon?

Speaker 2 (21:03):
I Actually it's not like every ten minutes anymore.

Speaker 5 (21:05):
No, it's not, and it never was to be fair
for those listening along at home.

Speaker 2 (21:09):
What yeah, Well, I mean I used to hold on
for a second. You've been on the show for quite
some time. Let's be honest. I used to sit there,
basically with a rage can most of the show, you'd
be sitting there under the desk, and god knows what
was going on every ten minutes?

Speaker 5 (21:23):
Didn't every five minutes? No, it wasn't every five minutes.
Why do I always get the erection related questions?

Speaker 1 (21:30):
I can answer this because every young male member of
the Radio Hedache crew gets projected onto by men and
their mid footies.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
That's true. That's true. Well, the reason I asked this
is because there's some research that's come out and it's
based around MRI skins of the brain, and what they've
actually worked out is there are different stages of the
brain development and it's actually different than what they thought.
So from zero to nine there's a whole lot of
connections that are being made, but on heaps of them,

(21:57):
heaps of that you're learning colors, nurse who are spelling, reading, writing,
and apparently a lot of pointless stuff. Ye tastes like
a lot of signapses that get created in your brain
that don't end up being used. Then from nine to
thirty two is the adolescent stage of your brain. So
that's so there's no major changes that occur in your

(22:19):
brain from the age of nine to thirty two. Instead,
what's happening is as a pruning and a tidying up
of all the stuff that you have learned of all
of this stuff, and it's advancing. But at the point
of thirty two, at that point your brain it's not
developing anymore. It's stopped. It's stopped developing. And from thirty

(22:40):
two smart as I'm going to get from thirty two
to sixty six as a bit where it where it
almost solidifies.

Speaker 1 (22:51):
I have felt that over the last sort of few years.
You do feel once you get into your early thirties.
Everything sort of seems to make a little bit more
sense than it used to, you know, I mean, I
think a big part of it is you know what
you like and don't like, and I'm willing to do
and not willing to do, and you're just like, oh no,
that's not for me.

Speaker 2 (23:06):
Apparently your age, man, I is the peak efficiency of
the brain. I think that's when humans have their peak
brain efficiency and then and then the next sort of
twenty to thirty years or actually they don't. The brain
doesn't decline, it just stabilizes. Oh right, Yeah, so you
go through a big stabilization period and then you get
to sixty six and that's the first early aging part. Okay,

(23:27):
and then at eighty three you go off a cliff. Okay,
here lives the plot completely. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (23:34):
So I'm at the peak of my powers right now.

Speaker 2 (23:35):
You're at the peak of your power. Oh damn.

Speaker 1 (23:37):
I thought the peak would feel a bit higher than this.
It's not feeling very powerful. I should get what's what
do I do with that information?

Speaker 2 (23:47):
Then? I don't know God, and I launch a business,
but I don't know.

Speaker 7 (23:52):
Jerry and Midnight the hold, I keep breakfast, Jury and
midnight the hold I keep breakfast.

Speaker 2 (24:00):
So Christmas parties starting up all around the country at
the moment.

Speaker 3 (24:03):
Yeah, that's right, that's right.

Speaker 2 (24:04):
I've been to.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
I've been to a couple weird at Christmas lunch the
other day with our diffriends. Export I went to one
of the zoo keeper ones earlier this week there was
there was a.

Speaker 3 (24:15):
Lawn bowl situation.

Speaker 2 (24:16):
Zookeepers down on themberg the restaurant. No, no, no, the
keepers of the zoo, the Oakland Zoo. Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 1 (24:25):
They did like a little fundraising Christmas do for some
species of antelope.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
Do they bring animals along to the Christmas party?

Speaker 6 (24:31):
Know?

Speaker 2 (24:31):
But I tell you what.

Speaker 1 (24:33):
One of them brought their dog. Tell you what dogs
dogs go? Well at a zookeeper party. Brought the party
to his knees. Really well, everyone just wants to pet
the bloody dog. I don't think you can overestimate how
into animals these people are, even on their days, just.

Speaker 2 (24:46):
Dealing with the animals the whole time.

Speaker 1 (24:48):
And you'd get sick of it, like like a radio
host going home and just listening to ten hours of radio.
They yeah, well, and I said, actually the office some
thing I used to have a theory that I could
spot zoo keepers by could spot what animal they work
with just by looking at them, because zoo keepers specialize.
They don't just go into the zoo and look after

(25:09):
whatever anam they specialize in, like you know, the snakes.

Speaker 2 (25:13):
Or the primates.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
Primates, Yeah, I don't get the hoofstock, the candvors, whatever.
And I will say the snakes and spiders, guys, you
can spot them a mile away, right, Males or females
normally both for snakes and spiders, but they will be
covered here to and tattoos, probably have the stretch of earrings,
black hair, emo goths.

Speaker 2 (25:33):
Wow, Okay, what sort of footwear? Because I've always noticed
that zoo keepers always run a similar.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
Football practical set of football all you mean in their downtime, well.

Speaker 2 (25:41):
Just even in their in their work life, they're normally
a tramping boot yeah, earthy tones. Yeah, I don't know
why they dress them all like Steve. Why do they
dress tramping boot? I mean you're just standing around a boot.

Speaker 1 (25:52):
Yeah, I don't know. Well, I no, I'm moving a
lot of heavy stuff around backstage. But yeah, I don't
know why they dress them up like Steve, who when either.
Turns out it's actually way easier to tell than I thought.
I devised all these things for like, oh, yep, that
girl there works with birds, that person over there works
at the snakes.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
Turns out they've actually all got them tattooed on them.
So that's actually way easier. Oh wow, Just look at
their arm or their league and they'll have the animal
they work with tattooed on them. They love those animals,
don't they. Yeah, someone to get a tattoo of a
radio frequency, I think so the bird people generally just
would stick to themselves. Yeah, they're quite flighty. Yeah, yeah,
they don't like loud noises. You to place the bag.

(26:26):
If you open a bag of chips around them, they're gone.
Not a lot of personality, no, and not very angular yep,
very aerodynamic. But but my role in that situation is
I'm the partner, and I think that's an important role
to You've got to know your role at the Christmas
Does because we want to talk about the rules, the
dos and don't it work?

Speaker 3 (26:43):
Does You're the you're the partner.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
Layout you know, talk to someone if they talk to you,
don't get a here to steam up?

Speaker 2 (26:50):
Oh don't be the you know, you know what I mean.
And if someone else it's fine, let them, but you
can't as the as the partner go in there all
guns blazing. Oh that's a crude. That's a crucial point.
I mean, firstly, as a partner going along to her
work function, that's that's dangerous territory, full stop. I reckon.
I've never been along to one of Tossi's work Christmas parties.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
No, I'd avoid that, I don't think. I yeah, that
was the first time I've been. It was a lawn
bowl situation and they recognize my talent, so I but yeah,
so work those and dance. We've got a couple coming up.
What are your rules around work does here?

Speaker 2 (27:26):
Oh yeah, I've got I've got a number. I'm just
imagining you turning up for Jeff's Christmas party and they're
think you're right. She works with rhinos at the zoo
and then she's kind of married to rhino here as well.

Speaker 3 (27:39):
You think that's the horniest thing she does.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
With a little bit.

Speaker 7 (27:44):
Terrible joke, Jerry Andman Night the Hotiarchy Breakfast.

Speaker 2 (27:49):
We're talking about work Christmas parties, the do's and done. Yeah,
I've got a few rules that I like to stick
to that I've accrued over the years, and I've I
actually got a lot of them, I think from g Lane.

Speaker 3 (27:58):
And when he gives you.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
I know what hold on, I know you've learned lessons
from g I have, Yes, I have, not from him
telling me do this or do that, just by watching what. Yeah,
but one of the because you know before Christmas Den,
you know, he's been our boss for a number of years,
He'll often give you basically one rule going into a
Christmas d and it is don't be the story. And

(28:23):
I think that's great advice for any situation. Now, that
doesn't mean don't have fun, don't push the boat out,
don't go hard. You just need to stay in the peloton.
You need to make sure that you are in the
group with everyone else. And the flip side of that
is if you see someone become the story early doors,
that sets you free for the rest of the night.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
No, this is a good point because what you're doing
is you're actually having awareness. Yeah, it's it's Christmas party awareness.
So yeah, when you see someone go rogue, immediately you're like, Okay,
well this is a loose party and I can just
loosen up a little bit. I'm slightly behind.

Speaker 3 (28:56):
Yeah, I'm in the peloton. I'm seeing what's going on.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
There's a couple of leaders out in front of us
with the Polka dot jersey. But I'm not gonna. I'm
not gonna then try and take over from that person.
That's nuts.

Speaker 5 (29:07):
Do you boys feel like you've got a good CPA
Christmas Party?

Speaker 2 (29:11):
Yeah? CPA, Yeah, I think so. I run a good
CPI I think so. I think I'll so you want
to start slow, don't start too quick, right if you
come out of the blocks. It's Look, it's a fifteen
hundred meter race. It's not a four hundred meter race.
And it's not a marathon either. No. I mean, if
you're still at kick ons from your staff Christmas party

(29:32):
and it's the next day and at six o'clock in
the morning, you've probably made some mistakes, don't.

Speaker 5 (29:38):
I feel like this conversation is just taking it at
me and my behaviors.

Speaker 2 (29:40):
Is this a and your family's here and we wanted
to talk to you?

Speaker 5 (29:44):
Is just an intervention?

Speaker 2 (29:45):
I would add something to the six o'clock kick Ons part,
and I would say, also, and look if you know
you know, but keep it legal to the kick ons.

Speaker 1 (29:55):
John's takeson in a very similar vein number one rule,
know who to ask and who not to ask.

Speaker 2 (30:03):
Keep it legal.

Speaker 3 (30:05):
Don't be asking Karen from HR you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (30:08):
And that goes to one of my other rules is
don't take the mask off if you're a certain person
at work, you know what I mean. Some some some
workplaces you're not able to bring your whole self to work.
The work Christmas due is not the place for you
to take the mask off and bring your whole self
to it, because it is.

Speaker 3 (30:23):
Going to shock some people.

Speaker 2 (30:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:24):
I had a friend who who text me after his
worked that years ago. We were in our early twenties.
And because I might have taken the mask off last
night and this workmates found out a lot about him.

Speaker 2 (30:36):
I've been working in a corporate environment now for thirty
years and I'm yet to be fired. And I have
never approached a boss at a Christmas party and started
giving them advice as to what should be happening.

Speaker 5 (30:49):
And I reckon that happened though, I oh man, don't
do that initiatives for next year.

Speaker 2 (30:56):
No, the boss does not want to talk shop the
Christmas party.

Speaker 3 (31:00):
No, they're there to be seen, and then they want
to go home.

Speaker 2 (31:02):
Let the boss approach you. Yeah. If the boss approaches you, fine,
but don't try not to talk.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
Shop no oh no, And I reckon stoneware them like, yeah,
this is great?

Speaker 3 (31:13):
Oh how cool is this great?

Speaker 2 (31:14):
Yeah? Looking forward to Hey, good to see mate, Yeah,
and walk away. Keep it. The boss goes by like
that guy, Yeah, great employee, that's right. What you don't
want to do is what's wrong with it? People are
getting paid too much. Exec are all up.

Speaker 4 (31:34):
Jerry and LENI the hold I keep breakfast.

Speaker 2 (31:37):
We're looking for some dues and don't in terms of work.
Christmas parties, which are coming up at the moment, doesn't
mean already less that happened? Are we less Christmas party
focused than we used to be? His businesses? Did COVID
kill that or is it just the fact that businesses
are not doing well as well at the moment. I
think it's a combination of both.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
I think for a good few years there, companies got
used to not throwing Christmas dose and then it's hard too.

Speaker 2 (32:00):
It's hard to then wind back up.

Speaker 3 (32:02):
I assume that.

Speaker 2 (32:04):
Probably pretty pricey situations for a company. Yeah, we've been
a huge one here at massive we're messive ones. We
used to kind of have individual ones, so ready because
we're part of Radiohatackie is part of a larger company
in zid Me, and in zid Me also run the
Herald as well, and a whole lot of other radio stations.
And yeah, Radiohtucky would have its own one. Yeah, and

(32:25):
then we'd be a part of a giant inzid Me
one as.

Speaker 1 (32:27):
Well, and the giant insid Me one would book at
an entire pub and so we'd be yeah, yeah, it
was a massive thing there. And then I think this
is common in most workplaces. And then your own team
does its own thing for us. One of our rules
was phone in the bucket, social media blackout. Oh yeah,
And I think that's a great that's that's advice for
life in general. Once once I've had two beers, I'm
a strictly no social media, no texting, no talking to

(32:50):
anyone unless it's ordering an uber or calling the misses.

Speaker 2 (32:53):
Or are you up?

Speaker 1 (32:55):
No, See, that's exactly what I'm trying to stop. This
is what that rule has been put in place for.
But yeah, I think you're right. I think it's it's
a cause he lives issue. That's why we're not having
so many.

Speaker 5 (33:05):
I also think maybe the work from home situation is
caused a lack of team morale.

Speaker 2 (33:09):
Bloody work from home? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (33:11):
Do people want to get on the piss with your
work mates anymore? Like at the end of the year.
It was always a thing that I wanted to do.
It was like, oh man, we've been in the trenches
this year. We deserve a big blowout.

Speaker 1 (33:19):
But if you've only seen each other via the magic
of zoom for the whole year, do you actually want
to go and have a beer with them?

Speaker 2 (33:24):
Probably? Not work, Peter's just text and this is interesting
business only here, Peter. It isn't a post COVID thing.
Excuse me, it's a health and safety thing. If you
get passed up at a work party then drive your
car and crash or something, the company's liable. Oh wow,
bloody health and safety right, hence the bloody work from home.

Speaker 5 (33:44):
Hen's the one till three party we have this year?

Speaker 2 (33:46):
Why would the company be liable for your stupid behavior?

Speaker 8 (33:49):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (33:49):
I think that's ridiculous.

Speaker 5 (33:51):
Sign waivers on the way out.

Speaker 2 (33:52):
Yeah, are you an idiot?

Speaker 1 (33:54):
Another TEXTROI on three four eight three only going to
the toilet cubicle on your own.

Speaker 5 (33:58):
I don't know that.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
No, that's good adviceful stop it. I think so, yeah,
I think so. I mean, look, going to the toilet
and numbers was never How does that help you go
to the toilet? I see girls do it all the time,
don't I don't know what goes on, and I don't
know was it.

Speaker 5 (34:13):
A part of the I asked, and a group of
seven ladies went into the same cubicle.

Speaker 2 (34:17):
Really seven seven seven seven. I hope you were outside
that cubicle just asking some questions.

Speaker 5 (34:23):
I stayed well away from that cubicle.

Speaker 2 (34:26):
I went to a party once and there were more
people in the bloody bathrooms and they were in the
party party. Where is everyone? I don't know? People just
filing out of bart and so what's wrong with people's pladders?
You guys got to come around to do wheeze?

Speaker 1 (34:39):
Another text on three four three advice forul work those
and don't stay away from top shelf or just cocktails,
otherwise you'll need.

Speaker 2 (34:46):
To call an amber fear intoxicated work colleague, that's fair
as well, oh man, if you're calling an ambulance at
a work party that's gone wrong.

Speaker 5 (34:53):
Actually, on top of that, if someone orders you an uber,
can you just get in.

Speaker 2 (34:59):
It. It's a very pointed specific example that you've used
their messon.

Speaker 3 (35:03):
We're all thinking of the same person.

Speaker 1 (35:05):
Also, if you find yourself at home, don't go back
out again. Stay at home, don't uber back to the
party which is ubered.

Speaker 2 (35:13):
You're out of Jerry and Midnight.

Speaker 4 (35:16):
The hold Ikey breakfast is text.

Speaker 2 (35:18):
Here on three four eight three. This is rules to
make your work Christmas party better. So I've the yule Tide. Yes,
you be aware of your kryptonites. Yes is text great text.
If you're a brawler on rum cry On Gin or
fifty year old Kevin from Accounts and one the GRONI
you're singing Celine Dion, my heart will go on a

(35:39):
karaoke be careful.

Speaker 1 (35:41):
Yeah, that's a that's great advice for life in general.
Be aware of your kryptonite. Know what happens there on
various different occasions. Also, if you wake up after your
work don and the worst thing you did was got
up and belt it out Selene Dion, I think you've
I think you've done pretty well.

Speaker 2 (35:55):
I think that's okay.

Speaker 5 (35:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (35:56):
One hundred percent. It's quite a good time.

Speaker 1 (35:57):
Should we offer a service, because we're we're in the morning,
and there'll be there'd be people out there listening to
us who had their work there last night, and there
will be over the next couple of weeks.

Speaker 3 (36:05):
If you're in it, if you're goot.

Speaker 1 (36:07):
A bit of head noise in the morning, rugs up
and we'll put your dash. We'll make you feel bit
of Yeah, you were great last night. Everyone loved the
impersonations you were doing. You were the life of the party.
No one's talking about you this morning, all right, Jerry.

Speaker 4 (36:19):
In the night the hold I keep breakfast?

Speaker 2 (36:21):
Was it you mestually that puts us into the group
chat the other day?

Speaker 1 (36:24):
Yes, it was as the art of steaming a vegetable
being lost to the younger generation.

Speaker 5 (36:28):
I was making a shepherd's pie or a cottage pie.
I always forget the difference. But shepherds does the lamb,
Oh makes sense, mate with.

Speaker 2 (36:36):
The lamb mins red sky in the morning, shepherd's warning,
cottage with the beef.

Speaker 5 (36:41):
And I was thinking, while I was making vegetables, why
am I not steaming these? Because that's what my mother
would have done, That's what my Nana would have done.
And that's what every generation before me would have done.
Why am I not steaming vegetables?

Speaker 2 (36:52):
Well, to be honest, I think the generation before your
mother six sources Susie was doing things. It was actually
you so was people were boiling the crap out of vigils.
I was part of a generation of boiling the crap
out of vigils.

Speaker 3 (37:06):
Yeah, boil them into their life.

Speaker 1 (37:08):
It's where when you pull them out out of the
pot with a fork, they just thought a bit.

Speaker 2 (37:13):
Absolutely broccoli that essentially is turned into water.

Speaker 3 (37:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (37:17):
I would also go for a step further. That generation
was also the generation of boiling meat.

Speaker 2 (37:22):
You know, boiled mints, poaching.

Speaker 3 (37:25):
Yeah, poaching a bit of chuck meat.

Speaker 5 (37:28):
That's disgusting. But is it a gen z thing? Are
the young people out there that are that are steaming
vegetables or is that just done?

Speaker 2 (37:36):
Now? I'll go you one further. I don't think millennials
are steaming visit.

Speaker 3 (37:39):
I what do you mean?

Speaker 2 (37:40):
I'm proud to say, Jerry, I've never steamed a vegetable
in my life. If you don't have done, okay, well
you need to steamer to be able to steam vegetables.

Speaker 1 (37:49):
Exactly, and I don't have one. That's why I've never
steamed a vision. You're steaming many vegetables. Steamer, you seem
like a Vigi steam. I'll steam a vegy. Why because
it's better than boiling them.

Speaker 5 (37:59):
Why is it frying, mate, Well, not frying with oil,
but you know, just put them on the fry pan
or something.

Speaker 2 (38:04):
That I like a fry as well. That's a slightly
different thing. But okay, here's a great example at the moment.
It's asparagus season. Yep. Sparagus is food cheap. Sure, I
love asparagus, and you only get it at this time
of year. So I'm going steamed asparagus, and then I'll
get some streaky bacon, whack it in the air fryer
for not too long so it's still soft, and then

(38:26):
I'll tie that bacon around that asparagus. That sounds like
so much It meant to me that. No, but just
think about that, and.

Speaker 5 (38:35):
Is it just enough moon snack for you?

Speaker 2 (38:36):
No, that's that's dinner. That's that's yeah, that's one of
well it's not dinner, but that's a that's a vegetable
side for dinner.

Speaker 5 (38:43):
What do you call that? An asparagus and blankets.

Speaker 2 (38:46):
That's a yeah, a pig and a what is it? Well,
the peg is the blanket and spreaking a peg.

Speaker 5 (38:52):
But I guess my question is what it is? Are
we moving on from steamed vegies for the right reasons
and is anyone keeping it going? And if they are,
I think I think they should stop that.

Speaker 2 (39:02):
Kudos to your generation for even knowing what a steam
veggie is.

Speaker 5 (39:05):
I just don't think steam vidgi's as we need to
be focusing our attention anymore. I think steam ridgies are
gone the past too much, Edmund, and I think they
need to hang up your boots way too much, Edmund.

Speaker 1 (39:15):
Yeah, that I reckon the ear fry has got a
lot to answer for, because you know, when you can
hear fry things, you're not going to get a steamer out.

Speaker 3 (39:22):
You don't have five different.

Speaker 1 (39:23):
Implements going to get your dinner ready, particularly when I
could just bloody uber eats.

Speaker 2 (39:27):
A couple of ticks on three for it three. There's
a time and place, and I agree with that. Like Ween,
we got green beans in a fry pan with a
tiny bit of water, Okay, yep, you get a nice
steam on them. But when the water boils, you can
eat them, you know.

Speaker 1 (39:42):
Yeah, no, I agree with that, Oh, when the water
boils away. But you get a bit of color from
the pan. You don't mind that someone else has got
the George Foreman steamer you get, you get three levels
on their bitch.

Speaker 3 (39:52):
You can also do crayfish, so I don't mind that.

Speaker 1 (39:54):
I've seen the ones that I've seen the ones that
you put on the stovetop and it's you know, three
stories high. If you're steaming multiple things. Yeah, I suppose
it's worth it at that point. But just to get
the steamer out, just for a couple of twigs of asparagus,
I can't.

Speaker 2 (40:05):
This text here. I thought we ate parsnips for years,
but my mum is actually boiling the crap out of carrots. Yeah,
it's over salty boiled corn, beef and undercooked lumpy mesh.

Speaker 5 (40:15):
T God, I've just gone back fifteen years.

Speaker 2 (40:19):
I know what I'm having for tonight tonight. Now, there's
apparently there's a rule if it grows underground, boil it
above ground, steam it. Oh yeah, there we go on here.

Speaker 1 (40:29):
So you're boiling your spuds, your parsnips, your turnips, your fodder.

Speaker 3 (40:34):
Beat you beat root, but you're steaming beans.

Speaker 2 (40:39):
Pineapples, yeah, pumpkins, asparagus. Pumpkin's an interesting one. You don't
steam a pumpkin there, no, but you you roast a pumpkin.

Speaker 5 (40:49):
The two I give a shirt about is the peas
and the carrot Like that, those two vigies just don't
need to be But then how else do you cook it?
How else do you cook a pee? Are we just
going to lose?

Speaker 2 (40:59):
Well? You go in the microwave like this person. Morning guys,
I'm twenty one and I frequently steam vegetables in the microwaves.

Speaker 3 (41:04):
Do you consider microwaving and vegetable steaming it?

Speaker 2 (41:06):
I don't know. Fascinating stuff. This is the Hidary Breakfast.

Speaker 7 (41:11):
Jerry and the Hotarchy Breakfast. Jerry and Mini the hot
Iarkey breakfast.

Speaker 2 (41:19):
Time for the Hyderarchy Breakfast Mastermind.

Speaker 1 (41:21):
Yesterday's Mastermind topic was trees and Jared, the anithetist from
in the cargo couldn't take away the price Fromica.

Speaker 2 (41:29):
So today we have two hundred dollars up for grabs.

Speaker 3 (41:32):
Jack Plot's fifty huck. Every day we don't have a winner.

Speaker 1 (41:34):
And since new research indicates the human brain undergoes five
majors developmental phases. Today's Mastermind topic is brains.

Speaker 2 (41:41):
I'm on the phone. We have Sarah who's our contestant today.
She's a scientist from Wellington. Morning Sarah, how are you?

Speaker 8 (41:47):
Yeah? Good?

Speaker 2 (41:48):
Thanks?

Speaker 4 (41:48):
How are you guys?

Speaker 2 (41:49):
Good? What do you science? Well, not brains unfortunately, soase
just Jack, Sarah, what what what branch of the scientific
tree are you?

Speaker 4 (42:00):
And from the ovaries pro buyer?

Speaker 2 (42:04):
Yeah? Really interesting. Yeah, we've got that book then for
next week for Mastermind. I imagine there's some big developments
being made in that area at the moment. Sarah. Yeah, yep,
I think so, out of IVF research and fertility. Yeah. Nice. Okay,
well Sarah, this is the way this is going to work.
We've got forty five seconds. We're going to ask you

(42:26):
five questions. You need to get three correct to win
the prize. You can pass it anytime, Sarah. If you're
going to pass past quickly and then come back to
it and if we stuff it up, then new one.
All right, okay Sarah the signist from Wellington. Their first
question is human brain will triple its size and the
first year of life? True or false?

Speaker 6 (42:46):
True?

Speaker 2 (42:47):
Correct? Which animal has the largest brain?

Speaker 3 (42:50):
Elephant?

Speaker 2 (42:51):
No, to kill a zombie, you must remove the head
or destroy the what?

Speaker 8 (42:56):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (42:57):
The brain? Correct? Which chemical and brain makes you feel
happy or excited? Uh? Doth correct? We didn't quite get
to the captain of the county's rugby team in the
mid nineties was Errol? Who brain? And which animal has

(43:20):
the largest brain? The answer that was sperm whale?

Speaker 3 (43:23):
Sperm whale?

Speaker 1 (43:23):
Yeah, yeah, we were having an off here discussion about
whether the blue whale would.

Speaker 2 (43:27):
Have a bigger brain, because of course a bigger animal,
but apparently not.

Speaker 4 (43:33):
Jerry and Midnight the hold I Breakfast a quick.

Speaker 1 (43:36):
Update on the entomology of Yule tide fellas, please you'll
Yule was the word for the month presumably of December,
and tide was meant time in Germany.

Speaker 2 (43:46):
Okay, December time? Okay, yeah, Christmas time? Christmas time in Germany?
Are they still running Bershnickelnkel? Is that Burschnakel's playing the
fifth on this? I'm not looking out Zoe there, because
Zoe is, of course German, but zoey northern German? Is

(44:06):
it Schnickel, No, it's not something else Schnekelkel Bellschnekel Beke, Belschnickel.
Have you seen Belschnekel Mi night? What's rum springer schnekels in?
In the Germanic zones they have Belschnekel is a dude
that turns up at Christmas time and he punishes the

(44:27):
children who haven't done good things again evil kind. He's
an evil center. So they have the good and the
bad one in the Nordic here, I think it's Nordic
and Belschnekel turns up and for kids who have been naughty,
he wacks them with a stick.

Speaker 5 (44:43):
I think yes, Is that what you're just having to
read here? Belsnickel is a crotchy fur claded so he's right.
He brings presents still.

Speaker 2 (44:53):
Though to good kids, but he wacks kids who have
been naughty. Evil.

Speaker 3 (44:57):
Yeah, he's Satan Xander.

Speaker 2 (44:59):
He's actually more even handed. So the good kids get
a whack and the bad kids get and sorry, the
good kids get a present, the bad kids get a whack.

Speaker 5 (45:06):
But he's not passing around with cold or anything like that.
It's just a PLoP around the ears or a present.

Speaker 2 (45:12):
Trigger into Jerry's theories.

Speaker 1 (45:13):
Yeah, Jerry's theories is a game show where you have
to call an or texts not calling and guess what
Jerry thinks The answer to a question is. This is
devised to prevent googling, so you can google what the
actual answer is. But it doesn't matter because what we're
asking you is what do you think Jerry.

Speaker 3 (45:29):
Thinks The answer is? This is fun to this question.

Speaker 1 (45:32):
Yes, we've done a bunch of them, but I can't
remember them and they're not written in front of me.

Speaker 2 (45:36):
It was what one was?

Speaker 3 (45:37):
When was the first somersault?

Speaker 2 (45:38):
When does Jerry think the first somersault? And I thought
it was fifteen thirty two? How many sexual partners has me?
And I had eleven?

Speaker 5 (45:46):
I thought, okay, So we find out range of topics.

Speaker 2 (45:51):
Yeah, we never know what it really is because it's
impossible to work out.

Speaker 3 (45:55):
Yes, these are the things that are unknowable.

Speaker 2 (45:57):
Last week, how many power poles are there in the
same island? Hang on?

Speaker 5 (46:02):
So you ask these questions, but no one ever gets answers.
We only just find out what your theory is on.

Speaker 2 (46:07):
And the person who gets it closest to my answer, well,
and we have a carryover champion, and you get a
chance to go up against our carryover Champ. Wait you
meet him, Greg, Greg about to meet him in about five.

Speaker 1 (46:17):
Minutes, and I know, I know he's listening with baited breath.
So to Greg and the millions listening around the world
and to you, Jerry. Today's question is how many people
does Gerry think could bowl one hundred and forty ks
right now?

Speaker 3 (46:30):
How many New Zealanders?

Speaker 1 (46:31):
How many people are walking around the country of New
Zealand right now who would be capable of bowling a
ball at one hundred and forty ks Now, Now, to
put that in perspective for people who don't follow cricket
very well, that is that's pretty quick. That is a
genuine pace bowler for the Black Caps would bowl around
one forty Yeah.

Speaker 2 (46:47):
I mean, and even like looking at New Zealand historically,
there haven't been that many bowlers that have bowled at
that level. And what we're saying is that have the
potential to bowl a delivery at one hundred squad so
not consistently no.

Speaker 1 (46:59):
But could run up to a cricket patch right now
and bowl one hundred and forty How many people how
many of those people.

Speaker 3 (47:05):
Are out there in the country right now?

Speaker 2 (47:06):
Does Jerry think, Yeah, so the way that it's not
going to be many, No, let's just let's just say
it's not going to be many because it's not going
to be someone that doesn't play cricket.

Speaker 1 (47:15):
So rule everyone out that doesn't play competitive cricket straight off.

Speaker 2 (47:18):
That there's not some rugby player that's played rugby all
all his life. This you check him a cricket ball
and then he's going to turn up because he's a
big beefcake. Yeah, and that could then come in and
bowl one hundred and forty because it's not like that
doesn't require strength necessarily, it's actually timing and elasticity.

Speaker 1 (47:33):
So chances are this is what I think you think,
Jerry is the only people that can do this are
people that play first grade or higher.

Speaker 2 (47:41):
Maybe the maybe one or two high school kids.

Speaker 3 (47:44):
Yep, this is exact about.

Speaker 2 (47:46):
How you're going This is this is exactly where I'm
going to I.

Speaker 1 (47:48):
Okay, So if you think you can give how many
people Jerry thinks could bowl one hundred and forty ks
right now walking around New Zealand, give us a call now,
oh eight hundred horde.

Speaker 2 (47:57):
And Greg is the carry of a champion. He's been
the carry of a chair now for four weeks.

Speaker 3 (48:02):
If you think you can unseek Greg, give us a
called down.

Speaker 2 (48:04):
Greg thinks it through? And what did Greg think?

Speaker 5 (48:07):
Was he on the same did he get your guest
correct in regards to the Summersault or the NAI's d
making or his power poles?

Speaker 2 (48:15):
The power poles? Okayt close with the power poles? This
is why is the carryover champ? Yeah, he's he's very thoughtful.

Speaker 4 (48:22):
Jerry and the Night the Hodarchy Breakfast.

Speaker 2 (48:25):
We're currently involved in Jerry's theories.

Speaker 1 (48:28):
That's right, we're embroiled in another rendition, today's theory. How
many people does Gerry think are walking around New Zealand
right now that could bowler cricket ball at one hundred
and forty kilometers an hour. Jerry's thought process already is
probably they're going to be a semi professional. They're going
to be playing at least competitive cricket for one of
the six provinces, Jerry, is that what you think of?

Speaker 2 (48:48):
Exactly? So there's six provinces, Northern District, Central Districts, Wellington, Auckland, Canterbury,
Otago and that's it. And yeah, so there's not going
to be many outside of that because probably if you
can bowl one hundred and forty ks, now you're probably
going to make you way up the cricketing ranks. Pretty
steep black caps.

Speaker 1 (49:08):
Yeah, I think to give people a frame of reference,
Trent Boulder be in the one thirties, mid one thirties.

Speaker 3 (49:13):
Yep, he could bowler one forty.

Speaker 2 (49:15):
He could once upon a time. Ken Now, yes, probably can.

Speaker 3 (49:18):
Yeah, definitely the upper the upper limit is one fifty.
You're lucky.

Speaker 1 (49:22):
Ferguson's your Shane bonds, they'll be up around one to fifty.
So that's a bit of frame of reference for people
that don't follow cricket too much. Let's go to our
carryover champion, Greg. Good morning, Greg, how are you.

Speaker 6 (49:32):
Going by trawlers? I'm well, thank you very much, very good.

Speaker 3 (49:37):
To hear you for another week.

Speaker 6 (49:38):
What do you Reckon's pleasure? He look, I'll be going
the heads up that my my previous explorations are a
bit bit of those. I'm really going to I'm really
going to pull the reins on this one. So what
do you got. You've got physics, you've got geography, you've
got stats, and you've got a finally honed guess. So physics,
you've got to be sex two to six at least

(50:02):
six two sixty three. Right to get the language right,
you need to be a fairly slim build. Right Again,
you've got six provinces and then I'm all going to
have one of these bowers and I think so therefore,
and but you're also going to have the odd freak
out there. There's a big, lanky barstard that can just
have it down anyway. Yeah, so I'm going to go

(50:27):
probably out of the first class teams. I don't know this,
but I'm going to say three out of six, right,
there might be three there. I'm going to say there's
going to be one freak, and yeah, I'm going to
go for four.

Speaker 1 (50:41):
Okay, four Lockan Greg Greeg thinks Jerry thinks there's four
people in the country who can bow one hundred and
forty k And now Connor joins us from Donner's Good Morning, Connor,
what do you think Jerry thinks is the answer to
this question?

Speaker 6 (50:54):
Well, I am not going to go through an insformation
because I wouldn't have a bloody blooth all that shit. Anyway,
I'm just gonna put a punt out there and say six.

Speaker 2 (51:06):
You're gonna go six. Okay, so what what agrego? He
went for? Connor has gone six? Interesting?

Speaker 1 (51:12):
Can I just say it's just straight off the bat
is there's probably four people in the black Caps that
could bowl and.

Speaker 2 (51:18):
Forty yep, totally So then and then you chuck in
Lockie Ferguson, who's not playing for the black Caps at
the moment. There's there's Trent in the country at the moments,
Tim Sali and the country. Sow the is not in
the country. But I mean he Neil Wagner is Neil
Wagner could near Wagoner by one hundred and forty at
a punch, probably ifful tossa. I look this, what's your

(51:39):
thought pro My thought process is six first class teams.
I'm going to average out that across in those provinces
there are three people at least per province that have
the ability that might be in first class cricket, it
might be in Club Creek. Have the ability to bowl
a delivery that fast? Can they do it consistently?

Speaker 3 (51:58):
They do it for a spell?

Speaker 2 (51:59):
Probably not no, But can they bowl one it's a
full toss? I think they could. There may even be
a bolter who, like Israel Dad was, who could bowl
one hundred and forty allegedly while he was at school. Right, yeap,
who knows, but I my number that I came to. Connor. Congratulations,
you are the new car champion. Nineteen I got to

(52:20):
nineteen o three from each province and one freak bolter.

Speaker 1 (52:28):
You just got You just got the higher side. So
Greg went for you in sex your person at the post.
Congratulations Connor, you're now carry over champ.

Speaker 6 (52:37):
Cheers.

Speaker 2 (52:38):
That means that, unfortunately you'll have to call back next week.
Bad luck that Greg. I mean Greg was sensational for
so long. No doubt he'll be back.

Speaker 3 (52:45):
Oh, he'll be back.

Speaker 2 (52:46):
He'll be back.

Speaker 3 (52:47):
He might even have another chance to unsee Connor next week.

Speaker 5 (52:52):
Dicks through. Let Greg ramble. We love it, so just confirm.
How many did you think there would be? Well, nineteen
and the winner guest six. Yeah, closest to mine. I
don't know if you're enough.

Speaker 4 (53:06):
Jerry andman Knight the Hdarchy Breakfast.

Speaker 1 (53:09):
I mean, Daddy need to have a quick chat with
you guys. I hope you're all sitting down. I mean
most people listen to the show in the car, so
you've been doing well to stand up. But on the
nineteenth of December, so the last day of the year
for us, the last day of the year. I think
for a lot of people, you're going to get in
your car, you're going to turn your radio on, you're
going to expect to hear us, and you're not going to.

Speaker 2 (53:27):
And we just wanted you to hear that from us first.

Speaker 1 (53:30):
And that's because yesterday we put on the line the
same bet we did for the four x one hundred
meter relay against the Big Show. The loser has to
cover the winner's show. And we want yeah, yet again,
we want that is three mel a clean sweep for
the calendar year twenty twenty five. This will go down
in history is our year. I think we can all

(53:51):
agree on that.

Speaker 2 (53:52):
And so that means that our holiday starts a day earlier.

Speaker 1 (53:55):
And so you know, if you're a big fan of
the Big Show, great, you get to double end your
day with the Big Show.

Speaker 2 (53:59):
But know that Jerry and I won't be here, No,
we won't. And we played. Look for people that want
to know about how the game went, you say, went
exactly as we expected that it would go. We took
it out reasonably convincingly. I knew going into that so
it was a four ball Ambrose. We had four on
our team, Me and you, Tom and Charlie Yep.

Speaker 3 (54:17):
They had four on theirs.

Speaker 2 (54:19):
It was Kezy Jace. They had Kurt and Joe yep,
Shock at the dark Horse.

Speaker 1 (54:26):
They played in front of us, so we were only
hearing whispers. We're getting reports back of I think they
birdied the last hole on the par fives. We could
see them on the green and just judging the body language,
we're like, I think they've doffed this one.

Speaker 3 (54:38):
They got themselves in a bit of trouble. I knew,
at least for our team.

Speaker 1 (54:42):
If you've never played four ball Ambrose before, you generally
will par every hole or bootie. Yeah, if you hit
a bogey, it means all four of you have screwed
up every single shot on that whole.

Speaker 2 (54:52):
Yeah, it's just hard to do. Obviously, if you play golf,
you understand this, But if you don't play golf, probably
don't know what Ambrose even means. It's everybody hits off.
So your players are four, he play as a group
and everybody hits off, and then wherever the best, whoever
had the best shot, you take your next shot from
that spot. All four of you, all four of you again,
hit the next shot, and then we're the next best
ball ended after that shot then and then you add

(55:14):
your score together at the end of the hole, the
how many it tocking. So because you're taking all these
good shots all the time, Yeah, you should be doing
a low score. You should be doing very well.

Speaker 1 (55:22):
Now, we still lost by ten strokes to the Lady's
Summer Cup that was going on at the same time.

Speaker 2 (55:27):
They wasted us.

Speaker 1 (55:29):
But anyway, I knew going into that that a bogie
was going to lose the round because we only played
the back nine, and I knew if we boged one
of the holes we were going to lose.

Speaker 2 (55:38):
We ended up only winning by one stroke in the end.
There were a couple of clutch moments. One of them
was when three of us teed off into the water
and Tom was the last person to tee off.

Speaker 3 (55:52):
It just watched us all three of our balls PLoP
into the swamp and he needed.

Speaker 2 (55:56):
Just to put the ball somewhere on the fairway. He
took an eye into the winds like heavy left to right,
sliced it and it just stayed in play. Just just
caught a toughter grass and didn't bounce into the water.
That was lucky.

Speaker 3 (56:13):
That was enough for us to par that hole.

Speaker 2 (56:15):
There was another hole where I was last up and
we're pumped three into the water. It was a similar situation.

Speaker 1 (56:22):
Here, so I found the water straight away and I
actually wanted to find the fair I thank god.

Speaker 5 (56:27):
Seems to be a bit of a trend here. The
first three just pump it into the water.

Speaker 2 (56:30):
There was a lot of pumping into the water going on.

Speaker 3 (56:32):
If there was a pond, I meddled it almost every time.

Speaker 2 (56:34):
It was target fixation. You know.

Speaker 3 (56:37):
You know if you're ever.

Speaker 1 (56:37):
Riding a bike and there's a big stone and you ate,
you just hit it every time because you're just staring
at the stone. Well that was me in every water
trap and every bunker yesterday. I contributed almost nothing.

Speaker 2 (56:45):
We sawn a couple of good parts, which helped for Birdie.
That makes a big difference. But anyway, we got to
the last hole and we didn't know whether we were
up or down or what the situation was.

Speaker 1 (56:56):
We pulled up to the last hole and they had
already finished, and I said, what did you guys get?
So that we know what we're putting for it we're
going to put to win or we're going to part
to lose, they.

Speaker 3 (57:02):
Said, churn in at four BM to find out genuine.

Speaker 2 (57:07):
We were dark a sick. We need to know whether
this is this is to win or not.

Speaker 3 (57:11):
I was so angry.

Speaker 1 (57:12):
I had the first part and I had it about
twenty feet off the green because I was so angry
that they wouldn't.

Speaker 3 (57:16):
Tell us the score.

Speaker 1 (57:18):
I even went as far as to tell them our
score before the last part to try and unlessit a reaction,
they all stonewalled me.

Speaker 2 (57:24):
But I don't think that made any sense to them.
I don't think they knew what was gone on because
later on when I spoke to Kesy, Kissy thought that
we're tied, so I was like, well, if we're tied,
we needed to go into another.

Speaker 1 (57:33):
Hole exactly, So we sink our final part of the
round and we don't know whether we still don't know
whether we've won or loss.

Speaker 2 (57:39):
So there was no.

Speaker 5 (57:40):
Celebration, right, Okay, that's pretty weird. But even if surely
they would have just told you their score. So then
there was some pressure on that final part from you guys, that's.

Speaker 2 (57:49):
What you normally do, but that was not what we
were doing, Charlie. Hats off to Charlie and our team
full credit.

Speaker 1 (57:54):
He was.

Speaker 2 (57:55):
He was our MVP man Charlie who was on like
a mid twenty's handicap, but just he was in superb form,
right he was. He was gone down the middle every
single time, which is bloody great.

Speaker 3 (58:09):
He won the closest to the pen on the last
part three.

Speaker 1 (58:11):
Jerry then sunk a twenty foot part to booty that hole,
which actually all told was the winning shot. You'll never
see that because there was no footage of it, but
tragically it's like one of the best parts have ever made.
It's like Wilt Chamberlin one hundred point game. There's no
footage of it. Five people watching that not one of
them had.

Speaker 2 (58:31):
But the good news is this year three now, it's
three now, thanks very much. Two rounds and a four
by one hundred meter relay. So what's next? Bench press?

Speaker 7 (58:39):
Yeah, press, Jerry and MANI the hold Ikey Breakfast, Jerry
and Mini The hold Ikey Breakfast.

Speaker 2 (58:48):
Chris Connery seem we've got something stuck in your throat.
Is that may or something stuck in your throat? It's
definitely him, definitely him.

Speaker 1 (58:57):
On the podcast, I was gonna say this afternoon, but
it'll be able. At eleven o'clock this morning. Tom Sainsbury
joins us, and I've just seen him walk into the building.
He is dressed as a Christmas elf, is he?

Speaker 2 (59:07):
Yeah? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (59:08):
And I don't know if that's just usual a type.

Speaker 2 (59:12):
Are you sure that was Tom Sainsbury? Oh?

Speaker 3 (59:14):
God, I hope so, man, what if it wasn't.

Speaker 2 (59:16):
I can't imagine why he'd be dressed as a Christmas health.
He's in the spirit, really, he's getting into the Yule time.

Speaker 3 (59:22):
Is you all in a bit of tide?

Speaker 2 (59:23):
Maybe? I don't know.

Speaker 1 (59:25):
Well, jeez, I hope it was, because if he just
walks in here in Ciby's, then I've just seen an
elf and accused him of being Tom Sainsbury.
