Speaker 1 (00:00):
Get a it's deary here from the Headachey Breakfast. Just
letting you know that if you're listening to the podcast
but didn't know that we also do a live radio show,
we do. And if you're wondering how to find out
what frequency to listen to us in your area, just
takes north or south as an island to three four
eight three and we'll let you know. And now let's
get on with the podcast. I've got to say that's
(00:32):
a very successful intro. Very happy with the rewriting of
that intro.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Yep, I think that was great. We just recorded out
of the end of yesterday's podcast, didn't we.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Yeah, we did. And for people, yeah, who might listen
to the podcast but don't know that we also do
a radio show.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Yeah, which apparently they are out there. And a few
people did message into the posts on the Conclave saying
things like, I love your daily Podcas, but I do
feel guilty when I no longer to listen to the
radio show. It's not you, it's the music. As I
struggle with nineties rock doesn't seem to do it for
me as I approach my fifties. Anyway, five Stars seem
(01:08):
busy please don't get sack.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Can I just say something about that you must never
feel guilty about the things that you consume. No, I'll
actually hold on take that back. Some things you probably
shouldn't consume.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Some things that you consume make you feel guilty.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Yep, definitely, And fact they have some things you you
probably shouldn't consume. But at the same time you could
argue that ultimately, if it's just you consuming it in
the privacy of your own home and nobody else sees
it or knows anything about it, really is any harm done?
Speaker 2 (01:38):
No, If it's not harming anyone else, then go hard.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Yeah. What I do wonder is.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Sometimes playing this in mixed company might actually harm a
lot of other people, And so maybe that's something. It's
like the Agenda podcast on the a SEC where I
describe that as not having listeners or fans or an audience,
but victims. Victims of the Agenda podcast. Yeah, and they
are countless.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yeah. I said about my son's haircuts, we need, I say,
another victim, We need bringing his people that he cut
their hair into place today.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Yeah? Did he ever let you? Did he? Did you
ever let him cut your hair?
Speaker 1 (02:19):
I would totally let him cut my hair, be happy
for him to give it a chop.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
He didn't want to, he didn't.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Oh no, he would, But I but there's no need
because I've got someone else who cuts my hand.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
I'll tell you what useful, useful thing to have being
able to cut here.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Yeah, good money. And if for kids, definitely, particularly if
you're in a boarding house, like.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
He cut your MAT's here. Yeah, yeah, that's what I mean. Yeah,
going to boarding school. Then once you get into UNI.
My mate used to just come around Kenner's all around
park up in the backyard. Yeah, birds will sort the
hair out afterwards. Don't hang your sheets out on the weekends.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Oh yeah, I mean twenty bucks nowadays, twenty bucks for
a good cut. And if you know what you're doing
with some with with you know, with some clippers. Yeah, yeah,
then you got to say twenty bucks as well. Twenty
bucks is twenty bucks well spent for a chop.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
For the outlayer. Yeah, of a chop, it's not much.
It's funny because I went and got my haircut last time,
and I was talking to the barber and he was like,
because I was like drinking, haircuts are getting way more outrageous.
It used to be you just go and show it
back inside everyone get the same haircut. Everyone kind of
looked like shit. Now everyone you can. There's the kinds
of haircuts you can get, all sorts of bloody, different
(03:24):
kinds of fades and mullets.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
And there's barbering magazines. In fact, I bought one for
my son last week.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Exactly that kind of stuff. And he said it's because
it's directly because that they can charge more for haircuts.
And you know how now people are like Jesus sixty
seventy bucks every time I get my haircut now. And
he was like, you used to have to bang through
four people in an hour to be profitable as a barber.
But now because they charged so much, you can you
can actually get a decent haircut. It used to be
(03:51):
just get this guy and get him out like you're
sharing a sheep. And if I can put three hundred
on the board today, then that'll be a good day.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
So what's the are we still taking an hour? As
barber still takes an hour to do a haiccut? Somewhere
between forty and an hour. Yeah, okay, at least in
Central Auckland. Because you think you could chop that down
to thirty minutes. Couldn't you?
Speaker 2 (04:10):
You could?
Speaker 1 (04:10):
But like you turn on thirty minutes. I mean you're
being one hundred and twenty back an hour.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
This is this is what he's saying though, because then
you're not going to get a very good haircut, well
aren't you. That's at least what he's saying.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
How quick you go the clopper Kings and coum you
clipper Kings and com z ah it might be with
no no see clip yeah sekkeout right, they can't hear
and I heard that. We'll look at that later. But
they do half an hour appointments. Yeah, and I've been
(04:40):
there a few times and yeah, they definitely they get
me out in about twenty twenty five minutes.
Speaker 2 (04:45):

herself if someone was calling later hosen later housen.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Yeah, is that right? Am? I? Mispronouncing that You're asking the.
Speaker 5 (05:22):
Wrong person is horribly human. Pronunciation is terrific. It's it's

dull ingo grind Jerry?
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Sorry about that. I will attempt to pronounce leader horson
correctly from now on. Now that now that I've been
now that I've been made away that I was saying
it wrong, I didn't know that.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
I was, Oh, it's cruelty to Germans.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
It is. It's actually racism, is what it is.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
I think putting up with it so long.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
It's ahead of ourselves. Calm, but what I will say
is thanks Jerry. Jerry. Jerry has his back to Zoe.
I don't know what that's about, but so he can't
so he can't see her in studio B. But she
does flinch whenever a German word is butchered on the show,
which is daily. Yeah, that's as bad as you think
it is. Maybe we need to compile a list of
(07:33):
all the mispronounced words on the show and clean.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Don't worry, Okay, calm, all right, Well thanks for calling
in and and pulling me up on that. I really
appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (07:46):

Speaker 1 (07:49):
Jeremy, all right, good on your colmb mate.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Thanks for the cool Thanks for.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
There we go.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Hey, how I don't I don't wear it. I don't.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
I don't wear a leader horse no, because it's barbarian,
isn't it It is?
Speaker 6 (08:06):
And we don't really do that much up north.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
See, this is the culture, a bit of this is
the thing.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Do you have a hock on a doodle?
Speaker 6 (08:14):
I have in the past, yes, but only in the
dressing room. Once in the name immediately took it off.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
I was like, it's not for me. Now have you
heard the phrase holds for the hoota? Now the pronunciation?
Speaker 6 (08:25):
Yeah, yes, I have heard that holds.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
But do you know where I heard it the first time?
Speaker 2 (08:29):
From me? It was the first thing I was taught
when we went over there. And I was like, give
us a give us a bit of sprackenzy that I
can doutsch at the BFS tomorrow. And what was her name,
Axel's wife. Yes, that's the most common German name in
the world. I can forget her her first name anyway, It.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Starts with a no, no, no, nona.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Anyway, she said, it's for the huta pronounced it, and
your leader hasn't and it's it means wood for the house.
And we're on a train going through Bavaria as she
said that, and she said, look out of these houses
and they look like comic book houses of Germany. And
outside each of them was a giant pile of halts wood.
Speaker 6 (09:17):
Say that yeah, very good, very good, good tug and
and the phrases wood for the house, and it's if
someone has enough wood out the front of your house,
then they're going to have a good winter.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
And it is a an analogy for a woman and
a dorndal who has a bag rack on it.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Yeah, you've got's good enough wood, that's right.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Yeah. And every punishing German ride guide, you know, when
you go on the roller coaster, on the Fierce Wheel
or whatever, what's I got about ten steins of Miller,
And every single time they were like, yeah, it's very good.
Get on the road.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Yeah great. Though, first my looking those rides like that
that Ferrest Field that we could you could smoke on
the Fairest.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Through half a sod rather half a back on that.
You're not allowed to smoke on them. What you can
fit like fifteen people in these fierce whels, it was
that big.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
You're not allowed to smoke.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
You're not allowed to smoke. Well, we were smoking because
you can't stop someone on a fierce Wheel from smoking
because the guy would yell at me every time we
get it.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Put the cigarette out.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Oh sorry, Matt, let's put it by my side. Then
by the time I'm one hundred feet up in the air,
what's he gonna do?
Speaker 1 (10:27):
How can we get back to that? The Munich beer fist?
How can we go back to that? I'd like to go,
Oh you'd love it.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Oh you would much fun. Oh you'd love it.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
It's way more fun than I thought. I thought it
was going to be fun, but it's way more fun
than I felt fun.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
And then I just have like it's funny because I
said this before. But everyone's wasted. But there's no fights,
there's no spelling, there's no bad behavior. And then but
there was a vague brown out where I don't remember something,
and the tents are a different colors and my memories
are yellow tear, jury's chewing my ear off about fucking
wasz machrom or something, and then blue tin and we're
all singing something. There's some random table of Indian gentlemen
(11:03):
who are talking with us as well. Yeah, and then
it's like black out, red tent. Now you're in a
so bizarre and all you want.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
To do is get a table that you can stand on.
That's all you're looking for. And it's table service, which
is the most crazy thing. So you don't even have
to go and get your drinks. You just stand on
tables and sing to covers ompar band covers playing the
best songs ever.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Of like but also like Nirvana's like, and they're playing
it on an accordion.
Speaker 8 (11:31):
Ah with that, And then every three songs they sang
I'm sang, I'm broad and then at the end everyone cheers, Ah,
take me back.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Great.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
The pork knuckles, we're knuckling a lot of pork.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Half. You can have a pork knuckle, or you can
have a half a chicken with some mashed potato and
beautiful gym and bread.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Chicken house. That's just a little crowd our gad.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
I can't remember.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
I don't remember either.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
It's massive.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
There were pretzels, pretzels, you know, and you share the
pretzels snuff. Can we take a break and then address
the snuff situation.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
We're talking about the Munich Beerfest and all the amazing
things there. If ever you get the chance and you
think yourself, I'm not much of a beer drinker. I
don't like Germans, I don't like Germany. I don't like
barbarian culture. Just just trust me, you will after you
go to the Munich beer Fest and it's a family event.
That's the weirdest thing. And you think, oh, I just
(12:48):
need to go with my punishing mates. No, you don't.
It's mainly families. It's mainly Bavarian families.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Yeah, and I didn't realize it was a locals thing.
I thought for sure it was going to be just
go there and everyone's take in the person. It's just
for tourists and there is a whole section that's just
for the locals, which we also grenated.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
Oh remember the traditional Me and.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Men Anastasia were dancing. We got taken up onto the
stage there.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Yeah, the traditional tent was amazing.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
She was unwashed three days straight at the mopped the
floor after she came up.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
It.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
Can I ask a question. It might sound very silly,
but I'm when I drink, I'm a very responsible drinker
and I like to mix things up with soft drinks
and waters and things like that.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
If I was to do something just to know, no,
you're not at the Water Fair, I just.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Gets freendously drunk.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
We'll just take your time. But I mean, you start
drinking in the morning and German beer doesn't get you,
you don't get drunk.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
It's incredible. But did you know that they are somewhere
between six and six and a half percent those beers,
are they. Yeah, So there's rules around. In my sober
hour before I really got stuck into my work, I
was reading a bit of the history of it, and
there's rules around how there's why the beer tastes the
same in almost every tent despite the fact that they
brew it in there, because there's all these rules around
how you're allowed to brew it or not, okay, and
(14:08):
so they're all more or less the same. My god,
it's delicious beer, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
It's exceptional beer. The Germans. It's the Germans Man they
make good beer.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Well, it's there. It's their dedication to efficiency, isn't it.
That's what it is about.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
And also they've been making it for like fifteen hundred
years yea, and yeah man, and they're not they're not
like trying to reinvent the wheel with it. They're just
trying to perfect the craft of it. And not not
craft like craft beer. I don't think anyone's really interested
in craft beer.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Well, what we call craft beer is just there, the
differences in their regional beers. Yeah, it's like a beer
from here, it's a beer from there. And then we go, oh,
it's a check pills and they're like, it's just the
beer from down there. It's just the same way we
look at like stuff about that export and DeBie draft? Yeah,
what about that? What about that bet that? Yeah, so
(15:00):
you want to beat that?
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Yeah? Beat that? What about the motorbikes that were going
around and around the cage with no safety barrier?
Speaker 2 (15:08):
What about? Yeah? That was something else terrifying. What about
And you went there for this? And I know I've
told this story before and I'll retell it again. I
don't think you came with me and Joe. We saw
a line into a tender. We didn't know what the
thing was. Well, bugger, if there's many people are lining up,
we'll go on there. And so we get in. The
line takes us ages to get it blackout drunk. This
(15:29):
point we get in, there is a spinning wheel in
the middle, so the floor is spinning. It looks like
a baggage carousel, but it's just a circle. It's pointed
in the middle such that if you're sitting on it
you could potentially slide off. And there's about fifteen people
on it. There are about two hundred people sitting around
watching this thing spin and as people come flying off
(15:49):
they get eliminated. Last person on the spinning wheel of
death they win the money. So at a certain point
there's only like two or three people left. Then the
people running the attraction they start swinging bomby knockers and
shit that are tied to the roof of the tent
and the people to try and knock them off. They
get a big rope out trying and last sue them
cowboy styles. They're swinging giant thick ropes across it to
(16:12):
try and knock them off.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Brilliant.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Then one person wants and I asked the German gentleman
next to me, Hans. I said Hans nicely to Holzen,
how what's going on in here? And he goes, okay,
So everyone in here can participate. So after this round
they will say something like, if you have blue hair,
sorry blue eyes, if you have brown eyes, if your
leder hosen goes past thedle hoosen goes past your knee,
(16:36):
if it's above your knee, you come up. So at
right next round is blue eyed people. You go round
after that people with leeder hosen that goes below their knee.
And I was like, oh cool, that's that's awesome, all right,
I can't wait to see what happens in the next round.
The next round, the guy yells something in German, and
all of the people that fit that description stand up
and walk, And every single one of those people that
(16:57):
start up was black.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
After the black people.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
So the guy explained it to me, if your leader
hosans long, if you're in a rid shirt, if you're
in a green shirt, and then the guy on the
counter goes, if you are black, get on the state.
And then what happened was all of the black people
in the tent were now on the on the spinning
wheel of doom, and people are swinging bombing knocas at them.
One woman got less suit and his skirt came up
(17:23):
over her head. I was like, I think this is
a hate crime.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
That's good stuff. So that's classically German, brilliantly German.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Obviously, someone stood up and said, hey, you can't say that.
You can't say obviously that happened.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
I don't seem to care about that sort of thing.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Guys, stop it, come on, say that.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
John.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Did everybody enjoy the blue eyed, blonde haired people? Yeah,
are you ready for the Blacks its basically the vibe
he was giving. I was like, come on, fellos, we
can't we can't do that anyway. Yeah, how do we
get back over there?
Speaker 1 (17:58):
How do we get back over there?
Speaker 3 (18:00):
I mean, run that comp again, just throwing it out there,
because we're in the pocket of big export culture, right
because every day on the half an hour time for
your latest sports headlines, thanks to Export Ultra the beer
for here and you know, the beer for me as well,
not just for here for me. I mean they're a
beer company. We could just keep doing that next year
(18:24):
and then they could send us and one winner, two
winners well.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
To pull you behind the good. That is exactly how
we went last year.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
Yeah, I know we're going to do that more.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Okay, well we are doing it, and just we're going to.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
We're going to Austin, to Auckland, Auckland city limits, We're
going to limits.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
And good, it will be good.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
It's going to be great.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
Surely, Export Ultra of the beer for here. Surely guys
you want to send your old mateus.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
You got to do a different do a different thing
every year. That's that's part of it.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
But yeah, can we do too next year? Oh yeah,
what what happens? And I'm going to do it in Hamburg?
Good stuff, A lot of.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
Humburg is a great place.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
West Germany North? Where's Wisburg?
Speaker 1 (19:11):
What big? Never heard of Worsburg?
Speaker 2 (19:17):
A different dialects is a great I'd love to go
to Berlin, I think great place.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
No when they asked for the black people to go up?
Speaker 2 (19:27):
No?
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Al right, So that's the podcast. Thanks for listening. Sits
down load, Subscribe et Centric cric C
Get a it's deary here from the Headachey Breakfast. Just
letting you know that if you're listening to the podcast
but didn't know that we also do a live radio show,
we do. And if you're wondering how to find out
what frequency to listen to us in your area, just
takes north or south as an island to three four
eight three and we'll let you know. And now let's
get on with the podcast. I've got to say that's
(00:32):
a very successful intro. Very happy with the rewriting of
that intro.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Yep, I think that was great. We just recorded out
of the end of yesterday's podcast, didn't we.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Yeah, we did. And for people, yeah, who might listen
to the podcast but don't know that we also do
a radio show.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Yeah, which apparently they are out there. And a few
people did message into the posts on the Conclave saying
things like, I love your daily Podcas, but I do
feel guilty when I no longer to listen to the
radio show. It's not you, it's the music. As I
struggle with nineties rock doesn't seem to do it for
me as I approach my fifties. Anyway, five Stars seem
(01:08):
busy please don't get sack.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Can I just say something about that you must never
feel guilty about the things that you consume. No, I'll
actually hold on take that back. Some things you probably
shouldn't consume.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Some things that you consume make you feel guilty.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Yep, definitely, And fact they have some things you you
probably shouldn't consume. But at the same time you could
argue that ultimately, if it's just you consuming it in
the privacy of your own home and nobody else sees
it or knows anything about it, really is any harm done?
Speaker 2 (01:38):
No, If it's not harming anyone else, then go hard.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Yeah. What I do wonder is.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Sometimes playing this in mixed company might actually harm a
lot of other people, And so maybe that's something. It's
like the Agenda podcast on the a SEC where I
describe that as not having listeners or fans or an audience,
but victims. Victims of the Agenda podcast. Yeah, and they
are countless.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yeah. I said about my son's haircuts, we need, I say,
another victim, We need bringing his people that he cut
their hair into place today.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Yeah? Did he ever let you? Did he? Did you
ever let him cut your hair?
Speaker 1 (02:19):
I would totally let him cut my hair, be happy
for him to give it a chop.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
He didn't want to, he didn't.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Oh no, he would, But I but there's no need
because I've got someone else who cuts my hand.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
I'll tell you what useful, useful thing to have being
able to cut here.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Yeah, good money. And if for kids, definitely, particularly if
you're in a boarding house, like.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
He cut your MAT's here. Yeah, yeah, that's what I mean. Yeah,
going to boarding school. Then once you get into UNI.
My mate used to just come around Kenner's all around
park up in the backyard. Yeah, birds will sort the
hair out afterwards. Don't hang your sheets out on the weekends.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Oh yeah, I mean twenty bucks nowadays, twenty bucks for
a good cut. And if you know what you're doing
with some with with you know, with some clippers. Yeah, yeah,
then you got to say twenty bucks as well. Twenty
bucks is twenty bucks well spent for a chop.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
For the outlayer. Yeah, of a chop, it's not much.
It's funny because I went and got my haircut last time,
and I was talking to the barber and he was like,
because I was like drinking, haircuts are getting way more outrageous.
It used to be you just go and show it
back inside everyone get the same haircut. Everyone kind of
looked like shit. Now everyone you can. There's the kinds
of haircuts you can get, all sorts of bloody, different
(03:24):
kinds of fades and mullets.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
And there's barbering magazines. In fact, I bought one for
my son last week.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Exactly that kind of stuff. And he said it's because
it's directly because that they can charge more for haircuts.
And you know how now people are like Jesus sixty
seventy bucks every time I get my haircut now. And
he was like, you used to have to bang through
four people in an hour to be profitable as a barber.
But now because they charged so much, you can you
can actually get a decent haircut. It used to be
(03:51):
just get this guy and get him out like you're
sharing a sheep. And if I can put three hundred
on the board today, then that'll be a good day.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
So what's the are we still taking an hour? As
barber still takes an hour to do a haiccut? Somewhere
between forty and an hour. Yeah, okay, at least in
Central Auckland. Because you think you could chop that down
to thirty minutes. Couldn't you?
Speaker 2 (04:10):
You could?
Speaker 1 (04:10):
But like you turn on thirty minutes. I mean you're
being one hundred and twenty back an hour.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
This is this is what he's saying though, because then
you're not going to get a very good haircut, well
aren't you. That's at least what he's saying.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
How quick you go the clopper Kings and coum you
clipper Kings and com z ah it might be with
no no see clip yeah sekkeout right, they can't hear
and I heard that. We'll look at that later. But
they do half an hour appointments. Yeah, and I've been
(04:40):
there a few times and yeah, they definitely they get
me out in about twenty twenty five minutes.

Speaker 4 (07:02):
I was, Oh, it's cruelty to Germans.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
It is. It's actually racism, is what it is.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
I think putting up with it so long.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
It's ahead of ourselves. Calm, but what I will say
is thanks Jerry. Jerry. Jerry has his back to Zoe.
I don't know what that's about, but so he can't
so he can't see her in studio B. But she
does flinch whenever a German word is butchered on the show,
which is daily. Yeah, that's as bad as you think
it is. Maybe we need to compile a list of
(07:33):
all the mispronounced words on the show and clean.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Don't worry, Okay, calm, all right, Well thanks for calling
in and and pulling me up on that. I really

Jeremy, all right, good on your colmb mate.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Thanks for the cool Thanks for.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
There we go.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Hey, how I don't I don't wear it. I don't.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
I don't wear a leader horse no, because it's barbarian,
isn't it It is?
Speaker 6 (08:06):
And we don't really do that much up north.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
See, this is the culture, a bit of this is
the thing.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Do you have a hock on a doodle?
Speaker 6 (08:14):
I have in the past, yes, but only in the
dressing room. Once in the name immediately took it off.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
I was like, it's not for me. Now have you
heard the phrase holds for the hoota? Now the pronunciation?
Speaker 6 (08:25):
Yeah, yes, I have heard that holds.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
But do you know where I heard it the first time?
Speaker 2 (08:29):
From me? It was the first thing I was taught
when we went over there. And I was like, give
us a give us a bit of sprackenzy that I
can doutsch at the BFS tomorrow. And what was her name,
Axel's wife. Yes, that's the most common German name in
the world. I can forget her her first name anyway, It.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Starts with a no, no, no, nona.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Anyway, she said, it's for the huta pronounced it, and
your leader hasn't and it's it means wood for the house.
And we're on a train going through Bavaria as she
said that, and she said, look out of these houses
and they look like comic book houses of Germany. And
outside each of them was a giant pile of halts wood.
Speaker 6 (09:17):
Say that yeah, very good, very good, good tug and
and the phrases wood for the house, and it's if
someone has enough wood out the front of your house,
then they're going to have a good winter.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
And it is a an analogy for a woman and
a dorndal who has a bag rack on it.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Yeah, you've got's good enough wood, that's right.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Yeah. And every punishing German ride guide, you know, when
you go on the roller coaster, on the Fierce Wheel
or whatever, what's I got about ten steins of Miller,
And every single time they were like, yeah, it's very good.
Get on the road.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Yeah great. Though, first my looking those rides like that
that Ferrest Field that we could you could smoke on
the Fairest.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Through half a sod rather half a back on that.
You're not allowed to smoke on them. What you can
fit like fifteen people in these fierce whels, it was
that big.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
You're not allowed to smoke.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
You're not allowed to smoke. Well, we were smoking because
you can't stop someone on a fierce Wheel from smoking
because the guy would yell at me every time we
get it.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Put the cigarette out.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Oh sorry, Matt, let's put it by my side. Then
by the time I'm one hundred feet up in the air,
what's he gonna do?
Speaker 1 (10:27):
How can we get back to that? The Munich beer fist?
How can we go back to that? I'd like to go,
Oh you'd love it.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Oh you would much fun. Oh you'd love it.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
It's way more fun than I thought. I thought it
was going to be fun, but it's way more fun
than I felt fun.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
And then I just have like it's funny because I
said this before. But everyone's wasted. But there's no fights,
there's no spelling, there's no bad behavior. And then but
there was a vague brown out where I don't remember something,
and the tents are a different colors and my memories
are yellow tear, jury's chewing my ear off about fucking
wasz machrom or something, and then blue tin and we're
all singing something. There's some random table of Indian gentlemen
(11:03):
who are talking with us as well. Yeah, and then
it's like black out, red tent. Now you're in a
so bizarre and all you want.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
To do is get a table that you can stand on.
That's all you're looking for. And it's table service, which
is the most crazy thing. So you don't even have
to go and get your drinks. You just stand on
tables and sing to covers ompar band covers playing the
best songs ever.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Of like but also like Nirvana's like, and they're playing
it on an accordion.
Speaker 8 (11:31):
Ah with that, And then every three songs they sang
I'm sang, I'm broad and then at the end everyone cheers, Ah,
take me back.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Great.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
The pork knuckles, we're knuckling a lot of pork.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Half. You can have a pork knuckle, or you can
have a half a chicken with some mashed potato and
beautiful gym and bread.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Chicken house. That's just a little crowd our gad.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
I can't remember.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
I don't remember either.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
It's massive.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
There were pretzels, pretzels, you know, and you share the
pretzels snuff. Can we take a break and then address
the snuff situation.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
We're talking about the Munich Beerfest and all the amazing
things there. If ever you get the chance and you
think yourself, I'm not much of a beer drinker. I
don't like Germans, I don't like Germany. I don't like
barbarian culture. Just just trust me, you will after you
go to the Munich beer Fest and it's a family event.
That's the weirdest thing. And you think, oh, I just
(12:48):
need to go with my punishing mates. No, you don't.
It's mainly families. It's mainly Bavarian families.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Yeah, and I didn't realize it was a locals thing.
I thought for sure it was going to be just
go there and everyone's take in the person. It's just
for tourists and there is a whole section that's just
for the locals, which we also grenated.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
Oh remember the traditional Me and.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Men Anastasia were dancing. We got taken up onto the
stage there.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Yeah, the traditional tent was amazing.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
She was unwashed three days straight at the mopped the
floor after she came up.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
It.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
Can I ask a question. It might sound very silly,
but I'm when I drink, I'm a very responsible drinker
and I like to mix things up with soft drinks
and waters and things like that.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
If I was to do something just to know, no,
you're not at the Water Fair, I just.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Gets freendously drunk.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
We'll just take your time. But I mean, you start
drinking in the morning and German beer doesn't get you,
you don't get drunk.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
It's incredible. But did you know that they are somewhere
between six and six and a half percent those beers,
are they. Yeah, So there's rules around. In my sober
hour before I really got stuck into my work, I
was reading a bit of the history of it, and
there's rules around how there's why the beer tastes the
same in almost every tent despite the fact that they
brew it in there, because there's all these rules around
how you're allowed to brew it or not, okay, and
(14:08):
so they're all more or less the same. My god,
it's delicious beer, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
It's exceptional beer. The Germans. It's the Germans Man they
make good beer.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Well, it's there. It's their dedication to efficiency, isn't it.
That's what it is about.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
And also they've been making it for like fifteen hundred
years yea, and yeah man, and they're not they're not
like trying to reinvent the wheel with it. They're just
trying to perfect the craft of it. And not not
craft like craft beer. I don't think anyone's really interested
in craft beer.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Well, what we call craft beer is just there, the
differences in their regional beers. Yeah, it's like a beer
from here, it's a beer from there. And then we go, oh,
it's a check pills and they're like, it's just the
beer from down there. It's just the same way we
look at like stuff about that export and DeBie draft? Yeah,
what about that? What about that bet that? Yeah, so
(15:00):
you want to beat that?
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Yeah? Beat that? What about the motorbikes that were going
around and around the cage with no safety barrier?
Speaker 2 (15:08):
What about? Yeah? That was something else terrifying. What about
And you went there for this? And I know I've
told this story before and I'll retell it again. I
don't think you came with me and Joe. We saw
a line into a tender. We didn't know what the
thing was. Well, bugger, if there's many people are lining up,
we'll go on there. And so we get in. The
line takes us ages to get it blackout drunk. This
(15:29):
point we get in, there is a spinning wheel in
the middle, so the floor is spinning. It looks like
a baggage carousel, but it's just a circle. It's pointed
in the middle such that if you're sitting on it
you could potentially slide off. And there's about fifteen people
on it. There are about two hundred people sitting around
watching this thing spin and as people come flying off
(15:49):
they get eliminated. Last person on the spinning wheel of
death they win the money. So at a certain point
there's only like two or three people left. Then the
people running the attraction they start swinging bomby knockers and
shit that are tied to the roof of the tent
and the people to try and knock them off. They
get a big rope out trying and last sue them
cowboy styles. They're swinging giant thick ropes across it to
(16:12):
try and knock them off.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Brilliant.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Then one person wants and I asked the German gentleman
next to me, Hans. I said Hans nicely to Holzen,
how what's going on in here? And he goes, okay,
So everyone in here can participate. So after this round
they will say something like, if you have blue hair,
sorry blue eyes, if you have brown eyes, if your
leder hosen goes past thedle hoosen goes past your knee,
(16:36):
if it's above your knee, you come up. So at
right next round is blue eyed people. You go round
after that people with leeder hosen that goes below their knee.
And I was like, oh cool, that's that's awesome, all right,
I can't wait to see what happens in the next round.
The next round, the guy yells something in German, and
all of the people that fit that description stand up
and walk, And every single one of those people that
(16:57):
start up was black.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
After the black people.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
So the guy explained it to me, if your leader
hosans long, if you're in a rid shirt, if you're
in a green shirt, and then the guy on the
counter goes, if you are black, get on the state.
And then what happened was all of the black people
in the tent were now on the on the spinning
wheel of doom, and people are swinging bombing knocas at them.
One woman got less suit and his skirt came up
(17:23):
over her head. I was like, I think this is
a hate crime.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
That's good stuff. So that's classically German, brilliantly German.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Obviously, someone stood up and said, hey, you can't say that.
You can't say obviously that happened.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
I don't seem to care about that sort of thing.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Guys, stop it, come on, say that.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
John.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Did everybody enjoy the blue eyed, blonde haired people? Yeah,
are you ready for the Blacks its basically the vibe
he was giving. I was like, come on, fellos, we
can't we can't do that anyway. Yeah, how do we
get back over there?
Speaker 1 (17:58):
How do we get back over there?
Speaker 3 (18:00):
I mean, run that comp again, just throwing it out there,
because we're in the pocket of big export culture, right
because every day on the half an hour time for
your latest sports headlines, thanks to Export Ultra the beer
for here and you know, the beer for me as well,
not just for here for me. I mean they're a
beer company. We could just keep doing that next year
(18:24):
and then they could send us and one winner, two
winners well.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
To pull you behind the good. That is exactly how
we went last year.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
Yeah, I know we're going to do that more.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Okay, well we are doing it, and just we're going to.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
We're going to Austin, to Auckland, Auckland city limits, We're
going to limits.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
And good, it will be good.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
It's going to be great.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
Surely, Export Ultra of the beer for here. Surely guys
you want to send your old mateus.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
You got to do a different do a different thing
every year. That's that's part of it.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
But yeah, can we do too next year? Oh yeah,
what what happens? And I'm going to do it in Hamburg?
Good stuff, A lot of.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
Humburg is a great place.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
West Germany North? Where's Wisburg?
Speaker 1 (19:11):
What big? Never heard of Worsburg?
Speaker 2 (19:17):
A different dialects is a great I'd love to go
to Berlin, I think great place.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
No when they asked for the black people to go up?
Speaker 2 (19:27):
No?
Speaker 1 (19:30):
