Daily bespoke content that you won't find on the radio
show The DARKI Breakfast Podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Good morning, Welcome along to the first bar of the Cherry.
The first podcast to see the Sun. The first is
Seeing a New Day, the Day of Our Lord, the
four seventeenth of August, six of August, that was going
to be the July there for the August there it is.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
A welcome fellos. Monday. How's it? How's your weekend?
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Hey? Very good? Thank you, very good? What am I?
Speaker 1 (00:32):
What?
Speaker 2 (00:32):
I went to a fiftieth birthday on Friday night, just
not a big not a big one, just like five
friends and families and stuff.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
That was nice.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
And then a bit of Saturday sport on Saturday morning
with Piney. Not with Poney, No no, no poney in
my life on the weekend of zero Piney. Sometimes there's
a bit of poney in my life. None this weekend.
And then Saturday afternoons Saturday actually stayed out at rugby
and watched other people's kids play rugby as well, which
is really nice.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
What's your club of choice?
Speaker 2 (01:05):
School? School?
Speaker 3 (01:06):
School?
Speaker 2 (01:07):
That was school? Hugo's playing for a school. There's a
number of finals, et cetera. I'll tell you the one
r rugby competition. The eighty five is really good rugby. Yeah, good, good,
like good rugby.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
I've always found the under eighty five is a funny
wait division, so your prop and your half back at
the same sites, basically, I suppose it's different at school. Yeah,
I'm thinking opened men's eighty five.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Yeah, no, this one. The halfback was definitely smaller. Yeah,
and the props were the biggest, but I mean the
locks were tall, like I was quite like that looked
like just looked like a kind of a rugby team,
just with no massive people on it. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
That's the that's the advantage of rugby. That's why rugby
I think should never die, is because there is a
position for every different body type. One of the most
inclusive games.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Yeah. Well, I was having a conversation with the Sun
actually around the spring games. Wasn't spring box, but the
what are the blue balls? Blue balls? And he was
saying scrums. He was like, oh, that takes so long
and so pointless. And I said, if you took out scrums,
yeah and pushing, you'd have none of the big, big
white units because what would there be no reason for them?
And he goes blowing out rucks, and I said, yeah,
(02:23):
but they wouldn't be able to get to them as quick,
so you'd want sort of muscly strong guys. You could
do it flash yeah, yeah, and he's like, oh okay,
And I said, and also locks like scrums line and
line out out. Then you'd have no need for really
tall people. So anyway, that was a conversation, and then
went out to the folk called on Saturday night with
(02:44):
the kids' friends and a couple of people, and then
Saturday Tulsey's parents a family camera extended family for lunch.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
You hate them? Is that Sunday?
Speaker 4 (02:56):
Sunday?
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Then Sunday bad? Way? Well if you hate them, no, no,
I don't have the life. Love good And that was nice.
They sort of came at eleven thirty, left at three thirty,
and then set around on my couch. Watched the sport,
a lot of sport in.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
The weekend into the cracket probably err.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
I watched a bit of the cricket as much as
there was Bangladesh first victory over Australia.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
Give it tests, give my taste of Bangers, taste of banks.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Now, I suggested that was bad for New Zealand.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
I mean as a cricket narcissist, always thinking about, you know,
my own country. So bring it back to New.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Zealand where you kind of do that day to day
as well.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Yeah, but I think that that will actually just focus
them and find them up and mean that they will
not take us lightly. Australia yeah right, we were playing
them later in the year.
Speaker 5 (03:51):
Yeah, four times Jesus bad venues where they Australia are good.
Whereas Darwin the pitch that everything about it was weird
for Australia.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
I've never I mean they basically played. I think Darwin
is part of Bangladesh technically.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Darwin is interesting. Man, I want to go after watching
the cricket it, maybe want to go.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
I've never been there, you know, there's no real reason
to go.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
There, no good weather this time of year.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
He's got a house there, that's a good reason. Much
space for us, I don't know. I think she's got
a tenant in there at the moment, but surely she could.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
A victim we could just turn up. Yeah. Sorry, because
it looks like the wild West, the Wild North, the
Wild NORTHCU. You can buy those big bots at the ground.
I read a lot of stuff about that really, yeah,
so you can buy big bots.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Was good at that stuff? On't that?
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Well? No, they suck And the rest of the whole
thing was in the Northern the cricket fans like, have
you seen what you can do at cricket and Darwin
and basically anything you want? And they said this is
not not the case, said any other venue in Australia
other than down.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Yeah, but they do, they do protect some of their
rights a bit better over there in Australia. For example,
the skimpis in Western Australia or give them their correct time, Skim's,
skim Bey's, skim bes, skim Bey's, the topless barmaids that
work over there, and what they called skimpy's. Yeah. And
(05:26):
but the thing about the skimpiees is that you know,
in a mining town, half the town finishes work at
six pm. The other half of the town finishes at
six am, and they've got just as much money to spend.
So the skimpies are working morning shifts as well. And
we used to live across the road from a pub
there and if you go over for breakfast, that are dangerous,
great great bacon and eggs. Yeah, So dangerously across the
(05:49):
road from the pub. Dangerous because like literally in the afternoon,
you like, h.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
What should we do? Heah, and you look out the
window you see the pub man's go crossy.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
One day I was like looking through the fridge. We
had no like coke or anything in the fridge. And
then I just wandered across the street, just had a
glass of coke, keep watching whatever game I was watching
on TV, and then just walk back in. Anyway, the
skimpies they would bring you, so you go and order
your bacon and eggs, and then you're sitting down there,
(06:21):
it'll be like eight in the morning, and then a
woman with the yoppers out will just bring your bacon
and eggs, which when you've just woke it up, is
a little bit confronting. It's a lot because you always
forget that they're there. Yeah, bacon and eggs, yep, as it.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Cooked by a topless hift because I imagine bacon is
dangerous to bacon topless.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
You're gonna drop the yoppers into the No, you get
a little bit of a fats yeah yeah, fats bladder
onto the net ow yeah ow.
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
But I don't know if they've got skimpies in the
old territory. Apparently they're doing Melbourne, so.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
We've got them here. I mean you mean topless.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Yeah, just like bar servers we used to.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
I don't think it's illegal. I just think no one
does it. Yeah, because it didn't. There was Hooters was there. Yeah,
there's a hooders, but they don't get them out. They
just parade them in an orange top. Right, who do.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
They get them out?
Speaker 3 (07:26):
I wanted to fault to Rhoda's opinion on this. I
suspect he's done more research.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
I thought they didn't. I'm talking about America though. I
thought they didn't get them out. I thought they just
were skimpy little shorts and little orange T shirt.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
I didn't notice the color, all the size so much.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
But this is why I defer to Rood's opinion on
matters like this. The picture painted he is seeing this when.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
I think I've seen it in a movie. And Adam
sander More short documentary film.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
It was about ten minutes long and I skipped to
about halfway.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
That's good.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
I feel like we could do it. Yeah, movies, Brownsie,
they used to do the Brownsie.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
I felt like some small towns still do it on
like a Wednesday.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
It's always a Wednesday, feel like they do well, feeling
slow night Midwe picked me up slowly.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Some mum would be down there with the opposite.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Yeah they do. They do do a bit of that,
but they also a but that but possy like they
they were the ones that introduced the whole mid strength
beer at the cricket Yeah, and we copied it because
we're lame, but it was definitely from Australia. And then
no like Mixican waves and stuff like that was all Australian, right,
can't collect cups, cups snakes, that was so that's all Australian,
(08:52):
whereas in the UK, no way, they're not like they're
not I'll treat you like an adult. They're like, oh
yeah whatever whatever.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Errian Manaia joined their complays the Jdaki Breakfast discussion group
on Facebook for more shareing me Wells and Manias Stuart
find them on Instagram at Hodaki Breakfast.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
When I went to Lily World and I love that
place out of Mount Smart When you go to the
Warriors game, that's such a vibe. But because it's part
of the stadium, this is the only clue that, Well,
one of the only clues that the council runs it
they restrict your beers after a certain amount of time. Well,
are we the only country in the world that restricts
people's pests if they're willing to buy After the game,
(09:34):
I was at the bar and I couldn't get a
jug because they don't have enough jugs out there, which,
by the way, I'd be happy to chip in and
buy them a few more jugs. And then you go
back and they're horribly understaffed, so that you're in the
queue for like half an hour to get a drink.
And when you do that, you're like, okay, well I'm
going to get you know, I'll get it a round
(09:57):
for the whole table. I might get two rounds, just
so that none must have to come to it. And
then they're like, sorry, we're restricted to one drink perpose.
And I was like, well, this is why you've got
a fucking hectic line. Yeah, because every single person that
wants a drink now has to come up to the bar.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Yeah, that's so dumb.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Why do we suck so bad that we suck because there.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Are some people believe it or not, yet, there are
some people out there who think that that they made
it their life's mission to just bex and just ruin
it for everyone else. It's so annoyable, but the same
as the people who whose behavior ruins it for But
some individuals behavior we're not at school. It's not like
I'm going to hold the whole class back because come on,
(10:38):
we're not at school anymore. You don't treat us like school.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
It's still not okay to fight. And I did see
one fight. Those two people they got bend straight away
there enough, fair enough. They were on a screen and
they were both arguing and he started it and the
bouncer goes, hey, it actually doesn't matter who started at
or it's about with you can't fight in here. Yeah,
and you two fought, so now you gone. And they
were like, nobody's going to complain about he said this,
and he said that, and the bounds is just I
don't ask.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
No, you both got and it's too hard to work
out who started what was like if you're gone.
Speaker 3 (11:06):
And again it doesn't matter, yeah you're gone.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
But the idea that you can't serve full strength bere
because there's some people that got drunk in nineteen ninety
nine or something.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
It's like, tell me this, these people, these people that
come up with these rules. Yeah, are they at lily World.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
No, they've never been to Lily Wold. They don't go
to events, Yeah they don't.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
They don't.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Well maybe they went with their like six year old
kid once and someone war or something. And it's like
that's the whole point. Six year old kids hear and
see stuff that they wouldn't see at home. That's the
whole point. And it's an education.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Because you don't want to talk to your kid. I'm
not allowed to swear the Warriors because you don't want
to be like, hey, look, yeah, that's a naughty word.
I mean, you shouldn't have said that.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
I never undertood the idea of why at least have
a stand where you can go and get as many
drinks as you want. Why won't you ever stand? If
you don't and you say, well, families all.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
Don'ts in there, don't go to that stand, that's fine.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Oh, because when you leave the ground, people urinate and
someone say, come on.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
That's still illegal. You're still not allowed to do that.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Have people are not just doing that because they're drunk,
they're just doing it because they didn't go to the
toilet before they left. Yeah, Like, why don't you put
a sign up go to the toilet before.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
I have a toilets? The toilet, the toilet.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Yeah, just a reminder, go to the toilet before you leave.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
Purse the bouncer should be ste that's a That's a
problem with the Takaha stadium design is that the toilets
where they are it looks like the exit, and so
when the games finish, everyone just goes down these stairs
thinking they're about to leave, and they're just in the
toilets and there's one security guard standing there. There is
a fire exit there with four doors. They could just
(12:46):
open that and let everyone out.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Why don't they just exit through the toilets? This is
a genius idea. Everyone should be going to the toilet
when they leave, You go through these urinyls and everyone
just then nobody's going to be relieving themself. But also,
is it that bad that people relieve themselves? You live
by Sadan Park, you live Baden Park, Someone's going to
go wheeze? Is it that bad? It's mainly water? How
(13:08):
about this?
Speaker 3 (13:09):
Number two rains every day? Yeah, no, I get no
shipping in people's drive. I think, no, yeah, we love.
And then the other one we do is I've always
said that don't should in another man's drive. It we
blocked the roads every you know that many magic ground
I did in Sydney. Every uber, every busyby train drop
me off right at the door. And there was no traffic.
(13:31):
There was no cues.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
So they don't have people going and dropping people off
at the game. Yeah, so they don't have a normal
people going and doing it because I don't want to
do that.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
Why not? Why wouldn't You didn't I do not know,
because it will.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Make traffic and it will be to imagine they're being traffic.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
So the irony is then they blocked the roads for
two blocks around the stadium. That brings that suburb to
its knees and the traffic gets pushed out. Yeah, and
it's still just as bad. You can't leave Mount Smart
or even Eden Park for like an hour after the game.
That's stupid because of the way the traffic restrictions. Well,
the worst, the worst part is it.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
So I went. I think I've talked about this. I
went with my elderly father who's eighty three and loves
going on to the rugby whatever, and so to get
out of the gas Okay, to get there, we can
get an uber to like a road that's about tur
undred meters morning maybe thre hundred meters. But getting home,
you can't get an uber to anywhere that's within about
(14:26):
two about a k and a half, So you've got
to walk up bloody Bond Street. It's like it's a
massive walk for an eighty three year old. So what
do you do in that situation? What you can't get it?
You can't get an uber No, like you've got to
walk to the top of It's ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Yeah, it is ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
You can't get on train.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
You can't get any Oh mate, we tried when they
said travel on trains is included in your ticket, and
we said, all right, let's have a crack. We would
have had to bust two suburbs over through the Horrendousent
bus exchange where if you don't live in Auckland and
then you hear these stories about people getting stabbed all
the time. That's one of the hot spots.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
And they feel like getting stabbed. Horrendersent.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
The Henderson bus ex chat is a great spot to
just get shift up and then so from there you
can get on get to New lond you can get
on a train that'll take it to Kingsland, but the
trains stop at ten o'clock, so now you're back on
buses trying to get home again afterwards. It's like, what
does what does this?
Speaker 2 (15:31):
I'd say, just make it a free for all. If
you get caught up in the traffic, so be it.
You know who cares. Yeah, it will save money because
it costs, you know, it costs something like I think
it's one hundred and eighty grand or something for Eden Park.
Every time they put an event, they have to pay
one hundred and eighty thousand dollars to the council to
do the road management thing.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
Are they owned by the No, they're not.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
No, so it costs. It's a rawt. So the council
make one hundred and eighty thousand dollars every time they
put on the things so they can cone off them.
It's crazy how.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
Many hang on, how many people are going along and
doing their road management.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
What this is the thing? So they can't and because
because inn Park need the council because they've got to
ask them for things and council will just shut up shop.
They have to just go along with it. It's so wrong.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
It's Marfa's.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
It's totally a it's a total rard. You want to
open up your black It's making things safer, bullshit. We're
going to make it measure if someone got hit by car.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
Well what about let's let's make things a bit more
dangerous that.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Let's go back to the old school.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Jerry and Manaiah. They hatched the radio show from six
to ten weekdays, The Hoodarcky Breakfast
