Very good? Thank you?

Speaker 3 (00:21):
How used today when we did the show? I know this,
I'm coming in hot here? Last night? I used today? Sorry,
when we did the show. I asked you to ask
a question of either Hillary Berry or Dan Corbett or
whoever you know might have the answers over there at
TV ins here, because I was upset about the fact
that I've never known why in the news that they
show the weather of today, the weather that's already been

(00:41):
Why does everyone need to know that the weather they've
already experienced. You don't have to tell us yet, But
did you ask that question last night?

Speaker 4 (00:47):
You know what? I saw Dan Corbett from across the newsroom.

Speaker 3 (00:49):
Okay, because Dan Corbett.

Speaker 1 (00:51):
Works probably I don't know, fifty meters from me. A
cross quarter is quite a large newsroom.

Speaker 3 (00:57):
Play like a bullpens.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
Joey, She's open plan okay, very open plan. And I
saw a lot of hot disking going on.

Speaker 3 (01:04):
Now I'm sure there is.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
Yeah, hot disking, that's the new thing, all right.

Speaker 3 (01:07):
Do you have a permanent disc at TVNZ or do
you hot disk.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
I have a permanent disc message, But there's talk of
this hot disking. Tell you what, there's hot disking. It's
it's a hot topic around tvn ZiT at the moment
rarely anyway.

Speaker 3 (01:18):
So you saw Dan Corbett.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
So Dan Corbett, who I don't think hot desk because
he's got specific weather information on his computer that he needs.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
A little thermostat to the right of his monitor or
something like that.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
He's at a weather vein, does Yeah, one of those
little things that's running around and around, you know, with
the little cups on the side of.

Speaker 3 (01:34):
It, on the little sticks, a little snow globe with
the cloud of that.

Speaker 1 (01:37):
Yeah, he's collecting moisture from inside of TV and Z in.
There's plenty at the moment. So Dan's across these about
forty minutes awa, and I thought of myself, I've got
to get across to Dan. I gotta get Dan. I'm
going to find out what's going on there. And then well,
I'll let you know what happened next. Someone got in
the way, someone famous actually, Oh interesting? Yeah, the way

(02:00):
me and Dan Corbett.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
The breakfast with Jeremy Wells already I'll be dangel.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
On the hudeck He breakfast, Marshy and Jeremy with you.
We're going to be joined a little bit later on
by former South Island meat working Mania Stewart.

Speaker 3 (02:13):
Well for so Stewart's coming in?

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Is he? He's coming in at six thirty?

Speaker 3 (02:18):
How long was he on the tools down there at
the freezing works? And will where did he grow up?

Speaker 1 (02:23):
I believe he grew up in uh, just out of Timudo. Yeah,
that was his Why Matty.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
That's the one, why Matty?

Speaker 4 (02:31):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:31):
Okay?

Speaker 4 (02:32):
So the wallaby?

Speaker 1 (02:34):
Is it the home of the wallaby? Yeah, that's the
home of the wallaby? Why Matty? Maybe if it was
he's upset about that, wouldn't it be? Well, I think
it's the home of Sorry, it's not the home of
the wallaby. Yeah, good point, Meshi. The homay is definitely Australia.
And then someone decided that the wallaby would be a
good animal to bring over, okay, which it's not a

(02:54):
bad animal to bring over all the animals that you
could introduce, that you could acclimatize, and then we've got a.

Speaker 3 (02:59):
Be trek record when it comes to bringing animals over,
Like you know, the stoats and the fires and the rats.
They were all a bad idea.

Speaker 1 (03:05):
Yeah, well the rats were by mistake.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
Oh they were by mistake with that.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
Yeah, the rats came over and I mean Polynesians bought
the rats, okay, and then Europeans bought other rats. Right,
so there were two lots of rats. So there are
a lot of wallabies and WAYMATI. Yeah, there's wallabies and whymaty.
In fact, someone I spoke to the other day was
saying that there's been a wallaby now that was found
on the west coast.

Speaker 3 (03:29):
Oh is that right?

Speaker 1 (03:30):
So they've gone all the way over the wallabies have
gone all the way over the Alps.

Speaker 3 (03:33):
Yes, and now that's incredible. Are they right in them?
I think they don't mind.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
A wallaby can handle a cold Colomba because Australia in
the interior of Australia in the winter and the southern parts.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
Gets pretty chilly. I suppose it does, doesn't it. Y,
You kind of forget about that like the sun goes
down and then it just gets freezing.

Speaker 1 (03:50):
Yeah, into the blue mountains. Yeah, into the mountainous parts.
But I think they're considered a pest.

Speaker 3 (03:56):
Yeah, I can see why.

Speaker 4 (03:58):
Yeah, they eat lots of stuff.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
I mean, But of all the animals that I think
we brought on, you know, I think the rats obviously
we didn't bring them in, but the rabbits were the
stupidest one. Because we brought the rabbits in because we
thought that would be fun to hunt them and also
just to have them bouncing around because that.

Speaker 3 (04:13):
Would be like England, cute little bunnies.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
Well, they went nuts, and then we brought in the
other things to try and kill the rabbits.

Speaker 3 (04:19):
Oh, so it was all kind of trying to put
out the own fire that we started.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
Yeah, the stoats. The stoats and the weasels and stuff.
That was to try and get rid of the rabbits.
But then the stoats turned up and instead of chasing
the rabbits like they do in England, they saw our
flightless birds and they went, oh, they're quite yummy, yeah,
and they went for the flightless birds. Flightless birds they'd
never seen. The stoats yeah, easier to get than a rabbit.
I'd say a flightless bird so much easier. Anyway, how

(04:44):
does a wallaby taste?

Speaker 3 (04:46):
Well, I don't think.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (04:47):
I don't think very good. Yeah, because I mean, we
didn't really bring over animals that tasted that either, because
no one really wants eat a rabbit.

Speaker 4 (04:53):
Do they. No.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
I think we didn't bring over the wallabee to eat, right.
I think we bought it over because we thought it
was pretty cool animal, although we never put over the
can and oddly enough, never any monkeys.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
Yeah. I think this would have been a great place
for a monkey. We've said this for a long time though,
haven't we. Maybe we should look at doing a jerry
you and I maybe we should could kind of, you know,
hit the black market and put some Chinese type monkey,
you know, put him down there in the South Island.
I think could get a couple man and women of course.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
Yeah, man, man and woman monkey. Man who it's called
a man and woman monkey, That's what they call me.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
I think if we're going to bring over a monkey,
you want to bring over an orangutan, like go for.

Speaker 3 (05:29):
Go full gorilla, not like a spider monkey or something.
I mean gorilla is not going to do any the environment.

Speaker 1 (05:35):
They sort of sit around and do nothing.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
The breakfast already we're.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
Just talking before about wallabies because South Island former South
Island meat worker men I Stuart's joining us on the
show after six thirty.

Speaker 3 (05:47):
Yeah, and you were saying that Wallabees spend a little
bit of time or quite a lot of time down there,
and why Matti where he's.

Speaker 1 (05:52):
From, Why Matty is it's the where they've seemed to
have found their best place to live. Is I imagine
it's a little bit likes dry. Maybe the climate's similar
to the southern parts of Australia in the winter. Perhaps
hard to know exactly.

Speaker 3 (06:10):
Okay, before the akadecature in the Jerry, you asked the question,
did we ever or has anyone ever tried to bring
any kind of monkeys into this country? Because we both thought,
you know what, I think monkeys in this country would
be a fantastic idea. You've done some research, have you
found anything?

Speaker 1 (06:22):
Well, it turns out that Governor Gray, George Gray, who
was the governor of New Zealand in the early eighteen sixties. Okay,
of course, yeah, he lived on cowwo Island. If you've
ever been to Caro Island, you'll see mansion house. Yeah, okay,
that was this giant house that he had built. There.

Speaker 3 (06:37):
Is that still the same house it's out there?

Speaker 1 (06:39):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (06:39):
Still there?

Speaker 1 (06:40):
Oh yeah, mansion house. George Gray confiscated a whole lot
of land off Malori. Very controversial figure in New Zealand history. Yeah,
he loved animals and he actually bought in kangaroos, wallabees, antelopes, monkeys, holes,
zebra's EMUs, he fowl and cooker burroughs into Carwo Island

(07:01):
cow Ow Island.

Speaker 3 (07:03):
Now it's called Karwo. I mean there's a few notable
figures in there, the kuocker, barro. Yeah, that's great. I
can see why they had a crack at the I
mean we didn't really need another bird though, did we know?

Speaker 1 (07:12):
He was the governor also of South Africa for a while,
and he was in Australia as well, so he just
sort of cruised around different places and went, you know what,
I like that animal zebra.

Speaker 3 (07:20):
Yeah, here's the zebra. I'll bring that.

Speaker 4 (07:22):
I'll bring that with me.

Speaker 3 (07:23):
And then and he brought a couple over today.

Speaker 4 (07:25):
And then how did that?

Speaker 3 (07:26):
I mean, we haven't got any more zebra because that didn't.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
Take the only thing that seemed to really go well
was the wallaby. But the monkeys, I don't know what
happened to the monkeys.

Speaker 3 (07:35):
They didn't like it.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
Do you know what kind of monkey you tried to No,
it doesn't actually say what type of monkey. Oh, I'll
do more research. I'll find out.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
I mean that's interesting stuff. Okay, yeah, I know, so
he did. He had to go. He was one of
the great. He was one of the great.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
I think they call it acclimatizers. It's not something anyone
does anymore where they try and take animals from one
place around because everyone realizes that it's a terrible idea.

Speaker 3 (07:56):
But I mean, he's only got about one success story
in there. In fact, if you any the wallaby.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
Yeah, yeah, the antelopes didn't seem to go very well.
The monkeys and the zebras, I mean horses. We bought
horses here. They seem to have gone fine.

Speaker 3 (08:08):
The zebra looks great, But if we've got a horse,
we don't really need a zebra, do we.

Speaker 1 (08:12):
You'd go a zebra over a horse.

Speaker 3 (08:14):
Would you really? Well, if you had a horse and cart,
would you prefer a zebra out in front of it.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
Then absolutely mentioned a zebra drawn carts. I forget he's
not driving a car, he's driving a He's got a
zebra drawn cart. He's a real freak.

Speaker 2 (08:28):
The Hodachy Breakfast with Jeremy Wells, a Radio.

Speaker 1 (08:32):
Darchy, six thirty one on the Hiadacke Breakfast. Time for
your latest news headlines. The outer bands of Hurricane Milton
are already causing issues in Florida with destructive winds and tornadoes.
The hurricane is expected to hit later tonight our time.
That's overnight in Florida. Storm surges along the coast of
the major concern and could reach up to four and
a half meters.

Speaker 3 (08:52):
Storm of the century apparently, Jeremy Wells, that's what they're
calling it, Storm of the century. What does that mean?

Speaker 1 (08:56):
Do you think storm the century means that it's the
biggest storm and one hundred years?

Speaker 3 (09:01):
Yeap, No, I got that part. Do you think that's
going to be true?

Speaker 5 (09:04):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (09:05):
Well, you never know.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
I mean they have basically evacuated all of the western
coast of Florida because these storm surges are quite intense.
The storm surge comes from low pressure, so when there's
no pressure, because obviously a tropical cyclone you're dealing with
very low pressure. You know, maybe nine hundred and sixty
hiccto pesticles, which is not heaps cash is measured and

(09:27):
hicto pesicles meshured. What that pressure does when you've got
high pressure that's actually pushing down on the ocean. So
when there's low pressure in the atmosphere, the ocean actually
bulges up.

Speaker 3 (09:38):
Do you know, I think I might actually be following
here right now. Yeah, that's how it works. Yeah, and
then hence we do, we've got storm of the century
on our hands.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
That's right. And what happens is when you've got a
high tide plus big waves which are whipped up by
the winds from a tropical cyclone. Okay, hurricane is a
tropical cyclone. That's just an American word for it. And
when when it is plus plus the lowering of the pressure,
so the water raising up. So therefore any any kind
of coast gets absolutely smashed.

Speaker 3 (10:03):
Okay, well there you go, three for three. If you
enjoyed that, and you let us know, no, don't ask
people if they enjoyed it.

Speaker 1 (10:10):
A study has found gen zs and millennials are using
a like chet GPT for emotional support. The research by
an eco friendly insect repelling company why.

Speaker 4 (10:21):
Were they doing?

Speaker 1 (10:23):
Found one in ten Americans believe AI is more effective
than pets for emotional comfort.

Speaker 3 (10:29):
So what people just typing into che gipt. I'm struggling
a little bit. I'm so worry. I don't do this thing.
It's not my generation. I just happen to have been
born at the same time. My emotional support remains of
things like dogs and cats and that and other such things,
not AI about people.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
Sorry, people, GenZ is like you're looking to your phone
for emotional support. You're looking to pets. Okay, you're looking
to self pleasure. I know what you guys are up to.

Speaker 3 (10:54):
What has self pleasure got to do with this guy?
It's not good. It's not GPT is not good for
self pleasure. I'll just say that everything you guys is
not good.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
And in sport, encouraging signs for black Caps cricketer Kyle
Jamison as he returns from a back stress fracture, he
has started bowling again. Meanwhile, Joe Root's become England's highest
run scorer on third day of the first match against Pakistan.
Now four hundred and ninety two for three, a deficit
of sixty four.

Speaker 3 (11:21):
What do you reckon that Workt's looking like Jerry.

Speaker 4 (11:24):
Four hundred and ninety two for three.

Speaker 3 (11:26):
It's essentially the M one, isn't it. They've created the
M one.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
That's a road.

Speaker 3 (11:32):
She's a massive road.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
The Duchy breakfast alreadyo Hodarchy.

Speaker 1 (11:37):
Welcome in former South Island meat worker Manaiah Stewart to
the show.

Speaker 4 (11:41):
Good morning, gentlemen, thank you, thank you, you're honor and
the privilege to be here at the home of punishing
with a chap. I was listening to that on the
way in. Actually I'm with you, mats. I followed a
little bit of the old low pressure analogies. So that's
a cyclone, right.

Speaker 3 (11:55):
That's a tropical cycling.

Speaker 4 (11:56):
A tropical cyclone also known as what a hurricane? A
hurricane here, So what's a typhoon?

Speaker 3 (12:00):
Then?

Speaker 4 (12:01):
Typhoon's the same thing, oh is it?

Speaker 1 (12:02):
Yeah? Typhoon is the Asian name for it, Okay, yeah.
And so they occur all around the world obviously, right,
and in the tropics. They start in the tropics, and
they start because they always start in the summer, because
you need a heating of the water to twenty seven
degrees celsius. Twenty seven celsius, So that means that that
start the water starts to evaporate, and with a jet stream,

(12:25):
the water evaporates.

Speaker 3 (12:26):
This is a joe every lesson. The water evaporates, and.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
With a jet stream it starts to suck it up,
and then it starts to swirl and that creates the
swirling that with the fact that the Earth's gravitation there,
it's moving around. Yeah, it starts to swirl and then
that and that sets it going and that starts to suck.

Speaker 4 (12:44):
Up more and more moisture like a turbo spools up.

Speaker 3 (12:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (12:47):
Now, do northern hemisphere in southern hemisphere typhoon spin in
opposite directions? That's super good question and I think they do.
Oh they do.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
I think they spin in opposite directions. One definitely goes.
So the ones and southern hemisphere go north to south.
They travel north to south, and as they travel south,
as the water gets colder, they lose their energy source,
which is heating up water, which is warm water, and
then they start to peter out and they turn into
tropical x cyclones, which is tropical depressions, which is by

(13:17):
the time they get to New Zealand, they're always not
quite as powerful. They're not They're on the way out.

Speaker 4 (13:21):
By that stage. I've just recovered from a tropical depression mass.
You asked, what makes something the cyclone of the century?

Speaker 3 (13:28):
Yeah, I was just wondering.

Speaker 4 (13:29):
I wondered that too, because the first thing that made
me think of was Shane Cameron David Tour. Yeah, but
that's anything to go off for the last about eighty seconds.

Speaker 5 (13:41):
Probably should have been stuffed in the first round, and
one of them won't recover from you. Oh man, Yeah,
that's right. The Fight of the Century. Oh, the poor
old mountain oyster. Was it called the mountain oyster or
the mountain Warriors? The mountain warriors, the mountain warriors, not
the mountains confused the mountain goat.

Speaker 4 (13:56):
Yeah, he got Oh that was awful. He got annihilated. Yeah,
and evyone was making the joke in the weeks after that. Well,
if that was Fight of the Century, I made Love
of the Century last night.

Speaker 3 (14:09):
That poor guy.

Speaker 1 (14:09):
I don't know if you remember that, Meshi, but oh boy,
oh boy, David Tour. It was always people are like
this has got to be the fact that Mountain Shane
Cameron's got to fight David Tour. God, these two, this
is gonna this is gonna decide everything in New Zealand
boxing forever.

Speaker 4 (14:22):
Yeah, David, it was awful. Once a year, my father
sends me that that clip because it's only a minute
and a half long, just to remind me of what
a man is capable of doing to another man.

Speaker 3 (14:33):
It does show up on Instagram, like if you're just
scrolling through everything the again, you just see it. And
every time I do stay for the full ninety seconds,
even though I probably shouldn't because it is a tough watch.

Speaker 1 (14:41):
Yeah, it's a super tough watch. This text has come in.
This hurricane is fascinating. It's a Category five, so that's
very very rare. Jerry says, this texture though, it is fascinating,
So that makes that's why it makes the storm of
the century.

Speaker 4 (14:54):
You know that it's a big one.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
When they've decided to evacuate an entire state, pretty much more.

Speaker 4 (14:59):
Than the population in New Zealand has been asked to move.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
Yeah, and this is this is off the backman eye
of Hurricane Helene, which was which all the debris still
sitting around in Florida that there's still a lot of
it needs to be collected. This is the concern with
the winds. That's just all the old debris is going
to get whipped up, plus it's going.

Speaker 3 (15:17):
To create new debris.

Speaker 4 (15:18):
How many cyclones before you go? Should we move somewhere else?
I know, That's what I think about that tornado alley.
You know they got tornado Alley over there in the States,
and every year they're like, we're going to rebuild.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
Yeah did you Yeah, we somehow missed hurricane Tropical Cyclone Leslie,
which was the one before Milton.

Speaker 4 (15:38):
Oh yeah, yeah, quite severe, was it?

Speaker 1 (15:40):
I think Leslie just petered out to nothing.

Speaker 2 (15:42):
To be honest, they breakfast with Jeremy Wells.

Speaker 4 (15:45):
Already the history of today with Jeremy James Drummond Dwells.

Speaker 1 (15:54):
On this day, on the tenth of October, fifty years
of six o'clock pub closing in New Zealand end. That
was nineteen sixty seven. It was a referendum and it
came back. Sixty four point four percent of voters supported
later closing hours.

Speaker 4 (16:10):
When it adds up, we're talking about this yesterday, the
six o'clock swill may have been where I've been drinking
culture was born because you knock off work at five.
By the time you get down to the pub, it's
about quarter pass half past. You now got half an
hour to fill your boots. And fill your boots they did,
and then all that happened was you get turfed out

(16:30):
at six blind, drunk, the belly full of piss. And
he's supposed to go home and bear family, man, was
the intention of the bill.

Speaker 1 (16:37):
That's right, you go home and sort of fling the
kids around and around and around, drop a couple of
kids on their heads, but that sort of party drunk dad. Yeah,
my grandfather used to talk about six o'clock closing a
lot because he was a plaster and it was exactly
that five o'clock, and he said, the first person down
the pub bought as many beers as they possibly could,

(16:58):
and then everybody would work out how many beers I bought,
and then there would be rounds like that. So basically
you'd end up with just as many as you could
on the table, and you'd drink as many as possible.

Speaker 4 (17:07):
Apparently there was a bit of a grace period at
six o'clock where you were allowed about fifteen minutes to
finish whatever you'd ordered before then. So yeah, but we
still drink like that. I know.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
Well, I wondered about our drinking and where it all
came from, because I think it actually went back even
further than that night, and it came back to the
pioneer days where Europeans turned up here. There were lots
of men, there were hardly any women. This is the
in the mid eighteen hundreds, and people would be out
in the bush and then they'd be doing jobs out

(17:37):
in the wilderness, and then they'd come back into town
for like the weekend. So they'd be out and they'd
have a lot of money because they'd earn money, and
then they just spend it all at that moment. And
so people were drinking huge amounts and there were no
females to temper any of the behavior, and so it
was just crazy men getting pissed.

Speaker 4 (17:54):
Well, if you go to any mining town around Australia,
but still doing that, I know that's the thing. Or
I don't know if it's much time with shearers, but
they're living a very similar lifestyle. It's like you work
so hard that at the end of the day you
want a beer. You wake up the next day you hungover,
work so hard, you like Jesus could go beer again.

Speaker 1 (18:09):
Yeah, because the beer fish Me and I, You and
I went to the beer fist recently in Munich.

Speaker 4 (18:13):
Yeah, and.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
There were a lot of Kei lizards over there getting
absolutely smashed. But weirdly enough, the Europeans they'll they'll drink.

Speaker 4 (18:21):
Oh they were drunk, they were drunk, but there was
no like vomiting. There was no punch ups, no hard
you started dust up. When you're wearing a leder Hosan,
you're looking at the goofy to start swinging.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
But you're so right though, it's just a it's just
a it's ten percent off where where we just go
ten percent harder. Maybe in everything we just go ten
percent harder.

Speaker 4 (18:42):
It's that famine mentality. We don't know whether the six
o'clock swell is going to cut us off or not,
so we're like, we've gotta go hard. Have you ever
put a kiwi in a situation where it's like even
open bar at a wedding, they go nuts, Or if
you've ever been in a situation where you paid by
your time instead of how much you drink KEI is
just like, but let's just go for it. We got terrible.
The more we drink, the cheaper this gets for us. Terrible.

(19:04):
I reckon it came from the six o'clock as well.

Speaker 3 (19:06):
Yeah, no, I think you might be right.

Speaker 4 (19:09):
That's where it all started.

Speaker 1 (19:10):
So there it was nineteen sixty seven referendum sixty four
point four.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
So it wasn't like overwhelmingly supportive, but.

Speaker 4 (19:18):
That would have been the families.

Speaker 3 (19:19):
But yeah, exactly.

Speaker 2 (19:21):
The Hurchy breakfast on radio Hurdarchy, Good.

Speaker 1 (19:24):
Morning, welcome along to my had aching breakfast for myself
on and meatworking and nice Stuart joins us this morning.

Speaker 4 (19:30):
Good morning, and man she's here as well.

Speaker 3 (19:32):
Morning mister well's morning when I.

Speaker 4 (19:34):
So good to be here. Fellas real honor and a
privilege to sit in Matt Head's seat. I see he's
taking the headphones with him he has. They gave up
last week.

Speaker 1 (19:43):
It was really weird actually here they gave up the ghost.
He claims. It was like a Grandfather's Clock situation, aren't
if you remember that song Grandfather's Clock.

Speaker 4 (19:51):
No, but I remember the gold and rhyanstone headphones that
he had, and I was really hoping i'd get to
wear them today.

Speaker 1 (19:57):
No, no, no, he's been, he's been here. Of those
they haven't been repaired. They're never going to work, they're
never going to be used again. They've put into retirement.

Speaker 4 (20:05):
And hang them up literally.

Speaker 3 (20:06):
Yeah, you've got the silver ones unfortunately.

Speaker 1 (20:08):
I He've also got a plan to find the kids,
the mud Copper kids.

Speaker 3 (20:14):
I do, I do.

Speaker 4 (20:15):
I'm going to use technology to try and wreck that
reward there.

Speaker 3 (20:18):
I look forward to hearing about.

Speaker 2 (20:20):
That next day. Breakfast with Jeremy Wells already.

Speaker 1 (20:24):
The nice Stewarts and this morning, so we're just talking
about a fugitive father and his three children, Tom Phillips.
He's been spotted together apparently for the first time of
his kids in nearly three years long the west coast
of the North Island, somewhere around the Muta Coppa region.

Speaker 4 (20:41):
Yeah, and he can't have gone too far. He's on foot,
isn't it.

Speaker 1 (20:44):
You will always I think at some time maybe he's
been on quad bike.

Speaker 4 (20:47):
Oh yes, I have heard that. Yeah, he's been getting
a bet on the old Cordy.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
Yeah, although was that confirmed? Do we definitely know that
he was on that quad bike for someone because he
didn't have a quad bike with him, so he must
have stolen it.

Speaker 4 (20:57):
Well, apparently people are helping him. It was good to
see the foot of just that. The kids look fine,
at least physically. You know, they're trekking around and they're okay.
But there is a reward for.

Speaker 1 (21:06):
Them, No, there is, isn't it? What is it eighty
thousand dollars or something. I'm just looking at the kids
ages now. Imber is eight, Maverick is nine, good name,
and Jada is eleven.

Speaker 4 (21:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Right, it's hard to contemplate what is going on for
those kids?

Speaker 4 (21:21):
What do they think is happening?

Speaker 1 (21:23):
Is he homeschooling them?

Speaker 4 (21:25):
I don't think there's much schooling going on.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
Is the correspondence school going on?

Speaker 3 (21:29):
In their latest video that they released, those pig hutners, Yeah,
they managed to see them. It sounded like the kids
were saying that. You know, they seem to be quite
in on it. You could hear them saying like, how
do people know that we hear type staff? How do
they so this?

Speaker 4 (21:42):
Really?

Speaker 3 (21:43):
Yeah, a little bit of brainwashing stuff going on, I
suppose there.

Speaker 4 (21:45):
Is, but there's quite a sizable reward out there for it.
Eighty grand New zeal On eighty grand for any information
that leads to the safe return of the kids. And
I think we all want the kids return safe. Absolutely.
And you were talking at the start of the show
about an hour ago, Jerry, about how the young, the millennials,
the gen z is, they like to use chat GPT
and those sorts of things. Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 1 (22:05):
There's been some research by an eco friendly insect repellent company, yes,
god knows why. And I found one in ten Americans
believe AI is more effective than pets for emotional support.

Speaker 4 (22:16):
That's one in ten.

Speaker 1 (22:17):
Gen z is yes.

Speaker 4 (22:18):
Well, I know that the police have been using dogs,
I eat pets to try and find these kids, but
they haven't been able to. So I'm going to try
and use AI. My idea is, I take all of
the articles that have ever been written about these guys,
I plug it into chat GPT and I say, chat GPT,
give me about one hundred of your best guesses as
to where you think they are. Okay, whip me up

(22:39):
one hundred different email addresses, and I just bomb those
guesses into the police. One of them is going to
come off, and when it does, it'll come back to
me and I'll make eighty grand out of it.

Speaker 1 (22:48):
Well, I've always wondered this with rewards because they always
say eighty thousand dollars for information that leads to the
safe return of the kids. Right, Yeah, how do you
know that it's your information? How to could the cops
could not turn around and say, you know what, we
actually got that same information from someone else.

Speaker 4 (23:05):
Or yeah, or we actually hadn't read your email yet,
we just went out there off our own volition and
we found them, so you won't get a sent yeah,
or even if I wrung them up and gave them
the idea, cut the middleman out and said, look, why
don't you just plug all that and go into AI
and you figure out where it is. Do I still
get the reward for up?

Speaker 3 (23:24):
You don't?

Speaker 1 (23:25):
So I'd love to hear from anyone three four eight
three or give us a call eight hundred honey, who's
ever actually been given the reward for something like if
there's ever been a reward out therefore maybe information leading
to the arrest of someone. Is there anybody out there
who's ever got the reward money? Has it ever been

(23:45):
given out?

Speaker 4 (23:46):
Would you turn it down?

Speaker 1 (23:49):
Would you turn it down?

Speaker 4 (23:50):
Evidently I wouldn't.

Speaker 3 (23:51):
No, who would do it a great lengths to get it.

Speaker 1 (23:54):
Yeah, I'd love to hear from anybody who's ever received
any reward money, even just a cat five hundred.

Speaker 2 (23:59):
Bucks the hood at your breakfast a radio.

Speaker 1 (24:02):
I'm just putting it out there to people whether or
not anybody has ever been paid out a police reward
that's been posted by the police for information pertaining to
the arrest of someone. And we've had one text that's
coming which speaks to our theory that the police never
ever give out reward money, They.

Speaker 4 (24:23):
Never pay out. Yeah, what was the reward that they found?

Speaker 1 (24:26):
This person says I got a reward once for finding
a cat, but that I.

Speaker 4 (24:30):
Don't think that was from the police, not even the cops.
That's just a neighbor.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
No.

Speaker 4 (24:33):
So that's about two point fifty for finding the cat.
And in that instance, you actually have to find the
cat itself, right, But these the cops are just looking
for information at this point. Yes, So it's like what
if you call the cops and say, oh, they're in
the bush? Does that give you Does that put you
in the drawer?

Speaker 1 (24:50):
Okay, so what you're saying, it's like lotto. So with
the eighty thousand dollars. Depending on the information that you give,
you get a percentage share of that. So if you
say you probably get a thousand dollars, because that's kind
of in the vicinity of if you say the bush,
the bush in the western Wakatle region. Yes, okay, so
that gives you a thousand dollars of the eighty. Is

(25:10):
that the way it worked?

Speaker 4 (25:11):
Yeah, I think so. And then if you're the guys
with the video that's like Powerball, you get the extra
because you probably it's some kind of percentage.

Speaker 1 (25:19):
Actually makes a lot of sense.

Speaker 4 (25:20):
He minised, to drill it right down. There is there
a chance that when they do divvy out these payouts
they sign make you sign some sort of thing saying
please don't ring into radio Hodak and tell everyone about
how maybe they do.

Speaker 1 (25:31):
Yeah, no, that's actually a good point. Maybe you do
have to sign some kind of thing. I mean, I
remember when Summa bin Laden you know, did what he
did back in the early two thousands. He well, he
masterminded a terrorist attack on the United States, the largest
terrorist attack ever on American So anyway, what he did,
I think it was twenty five million dollars, was the

(25:54):
was the ransom on his head, had the time twenty
five million for any information pertaining to his but was
that paid out because in the end they worked out
where he was.

Speaker 4 (26:03):
Was he just haanging around on a four wheeler out
the back of Afghanistan? They a few peg under if
your goat herders saw them.

Speaker 1 (26:11):
Yeah, it was always cruising aroun as one as as
going on the border from one side to the other.
I think they foun him in the end. They foun
him in Pakistan, didn't they.

Speaker 4 (26:17):
Yes, they did, Yeah, with a weird DVD collection. I
read the book of the guys trying to capture him.
They trained for about six months to raid this compound
and on the day they tried to land there, their
bloody crash the all he got through into the backyard.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
That's right, they did, they did.

Speaker 4 (26:32):
It's been so long. This book's about three hundred pages thick.
Right at the end they crashed into a power line
in the backyard. A shit.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
Here's the text has just come in regarding that person
who once got the reward for finding the cat yep,
and the textas did they really find a cat or
just paint another cat? Cats can be very similar one
to another, particularly black ones with little white socks.

Speaker 4 (26:58):
Yeah, it could be a black cat with enough fame,
that's right.

Speaker 2 (27:02):
They breakfast with Jeremy Wells.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
Already talking about rewards and police rewards, and the question
now has emerged, as anyone ever got a reward from
the police.

Speaker 3 (27:14):
Turns out nobody.

Speaker 1 (27:15):
And this reward, this eighty thousand dollars award that we're
talking about for Tom Phillips and information for his children,
where does it come from? Where does it come from?
Apparently it's expired?

Speaker 4 (27:25):
Oh yes, yeah, So this leads into your theory that
no one's ever been paid out for these So I reckon,
is there a chance that they actually know where he is?
And so they've expired the reward so they never have
to pay it out. So they're like, we found him,
expire the reward. Yeah, and any information they'll never get
paid out.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
Well, where does the reward? I wanted to know where
reward money comes from because obviously inside of a budget
police budget, is there a line in the budget that's rewards?

Speaker 4 (27:53):
I was wondering if maybe it was confiscated proceeds of crime,
So like, this is the money that they've taken off
the game, and if that's the case when they run
out of the money, they're going to start putting up
gold Harley Davidson's as an incentive. I'll tell you what
if they put that five hundred and fifteen CAGs a
methodup for an incentive, you probably find it tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (28:11):
Only selling that stuff on the side to fund the
reward system that the police have got going. Well, apparently
the rewards range and price I've googled it, and those
relating to murder and cold cases have generally moved from
fifty to one hundred thousand dollars to reflect inflation and
the current cost of living. So where does it come from?
It comes from. It's a responsibility of the particular police
district who's investigating the crime, and must be sourced from

(28:34):
existing budgets. Police may work with external agencies or individuals
to offer a reward, and then what information could get
the reward. It's got to be credible material information. Well,
of course, yeah, what about this is a good question.
What about if you've been helping someone like Tom Phillips
and then you try and accept the reward.

Speaker 4 (28:51):
Oh yeah, do you get the reward? Could you use
it for your legal defense for aiding in a bedding.

Speaker 1 (28:56):
Well, apparently you can avoid getting into any legal trouble.
Police have assured they will consider granting immunity against prosecution
for anyone who has committed an offense and helping Phillips.

Speaker 4 (29:06):
Heighth, Is that why they put the reward up there,
so that anyone that's helping him, it's in the back
of their mind, like I could help you, or I
could get eighty k h.

Speaker 3 (29:15):
That's actually an interesting point there could be. I just
assume now if you guys have been discussing this, that
it must be just around just public interest. Is the
idea of just putting a reward on it just up
public interest? But maybe what you're saying, we I that
is good because maybe it would cause people like friends
of Tom Phillips, for example, to turn on them.

Speaker 4 (29:29):
Yeah, oh, I would turn on my friends in a
heartbeat for that amount of money. You're looking at it
from a radio perspective saying, how do we make a
better noise here? Let's give away.

Speaker 3 (29:39):
That is actually what I've done there.

Speaker 4 (29:41):
Yeah, I'm looking here.

Speaker 1 (29:42):
And it turns out the commissioner, Andrew Costa Cuddles Costa,
the hot police commissioner, was running the beard far better
with the beard actually.

Speaker 4 (29:50):
Oh yes, piercing blue eyes.

Speaker 3 (29:52):
Yeah, very good looking man.

Speaker 1 (29:54):
He he apparently is the final assessment officer, so he's
the guy that decides in the end whether you get
the money or not for any any reward.

Speaker 4 (30:01):
And that comes out of the local budget, which is
an issue because if you've ever been given eighty K
to spend on behalf of a business, they don't want
you to spend their money. You know, any way you
can save eighty k.

Speaker 1 (30:12):
Yeah, apparent. And then this question here, can Tom Phillips
himself claimed the reward money. He can try and he
may even be successful. In the past, other offenders directly
involved in crimes have been a proportioned, apportioned all or
part of the.

Speaker 4 (30:27):
Reward Offered's a murky world, dangerous President de zet absconde
with your kids for a couple of years, We'll give
you eighty k as a reward.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
World as a murky old world, isn't it.

Speaker 3 (30:37):
I'm I'm quite surprised about that.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
Coming up later on the show, the new star of
the new version of The Australian Office will be joining
us and Pixie Campbell. Our Australian content director has watched
three episodes last night, and he's given up the big
Old Pixie thumbs up.

Speaker 2 (30:54):
They breakfast Aladio Hurdarchy.

Speaker 1 (30:56):
Seven thirty on the Hurdcky Briekfast Time for the latest
news headlines. Vice President says Hurricane Milton is different and
more dangerous to other storms, and people should listen to
the warnings to evacuate. The outer band of the hurricane
is already causing destructive winds, heavy rain, and some tornadoes.
Kamala Harris says Milton's expected to hit Florida later tonight

(31:17):
our time. I saw the governor talking on this yesterday
at Ronda Sanderson. He was saying, you you will die.
I thought, you will die if.

Speaker 3 (31:26):
You don't leave.

Speaker 6 (31:27):
That.

Speaker 1 (31:27):
That was quite full on, I thought.

Speaker 3 (31:29):
I know.

Speaker 4 (31:29):
And the only people I've seen that are staying are
the zoo keepers at one of the zoos there. They're
staying to help the animals. The animals they're looking after
were penguins, which I think are uniquely equipped to deal
with a hurricane.

Speaker 1 (31:40):
I would have thought, so they can swim. Yeah, well,
they've got penguins in Florida.

Speaker 4 (31:43):
Give them strong enough wins, they could probably fly, you know,
those little wings. Ah, well, the issue is they can't
flap them hard enough. But you you run a three
hundred k wind at a penguin, I reckon that thing
could fly.

Speaker 3 (31:54):
Oh can't, Bellie.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
I thought they'd be worried about the gators getting released,
like if with a storm surge, because there's a lot
of gators down that way with the storm surgeon and
that huge custom, all that water coming in all of
a sudden flooding gator parks.

Speaker 4 (32:08):
I was worried about that. When we had the Auckland floods,
there's a couple of gators at the zoo around the
corner of your place. You imagine those things got turned
loose into punts and then.

Speaker 1 (32:17):
Oh, it's happened before. Hippos have got loose in the
Auckland zero before from a flood.

Speaker 4 (32:21):
What do you do about a loose hippo?

Speaker 1 (32:23):
Oh you do not want to hippo on the lost
go down Queen Street. All sorts of problems.

Speaker 4 (32:28):
Not much you can do about a loose hippo.

Speaker 3 (32:29):
Vicious things.

Speaker 1 (32:30):
Meanwhile, belief changes to our emergency management system will prepare
in New Zealand for a major disaster. The Government's released
it's long term vision to strengthen the system over the
next five years. Mister Mark Mitchell says they've learned from
events like Cyclone Gabriel.

Speaker 3 (32:44):
It feels like a slight dig about what's going on
over there in the States right now. Yeah, making sure
that we're across everything here. Yeah, they we're all good, Yep,
we'll be fine and in sport. Former Black Caps coach
Mike Hessen has downplayed the impact of Came Williamson's latest
injury on his career. The Batterest departure for India four
three has been delayed by a groin issue, although optimism
remains he'll play some part in the series. The negel

(33:06):
comes after Williamson suffered a hamstring strain this year and
spent a large part of twenty twenty three sidelined with
an acl knee tear, which required surgery.

Speaker 1 (33:16):
Pluss.

Speaker 3 (33:16):
He's head that elbow.

Speaker 4 (33:17):
I know how warrick, because this is how you know
players careers in they just all of a sudden start
getting too many injuries and they don't I'm not trying
to put the nail on the coffin for Cain Williamson,
but it's worrying.

Speaker 1 (33:28):
I know there's a lot of injuries. He's had a
lot of balls. The only part of his body that
seems to have not sustained an injury so far has
been as downstairs operation.

Speaker 4 (33:37):
He's Tom Pitty seven thirty.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
Three The Hdarchy Breakfast with Jeremy Wells already r Hurdarchy.

Speaker 1 (33:43):
Former South Island meatworker, and I Stewart is joining us
on the Hidachy Breakfast this morning along with Mashy.

Speaker 4 (33:49):
Good morning, gentlemen, has it all gone good?

Speaker 3 (33:51):
Thank you?

Speaker 4 (33:51):
And you were a meat worker in south of just
south of Tamado. Yep, the power or a freezing works.
If you hit the bridge, you've gone too far. It's
just on a lift there as you're hitting. It's probably
about halfway between the two. I was in the Lamb
cuts department down there. What sorry, boner, you had a boner?

Speaker 3 (34:13):
Were you working the boner?

Speaker 4 (34:16):
You're a boner, yes, qualified boner.

Speaker 1 (34:17):
Okay, you're in the lamb department. You went in the
wallaby section where you.

Speaker 4 (34:20):
Wasn't in the Funnily enough, they didn't have a wallaby
section there, although if you let the Aucklanders tell you,
we didn't have wallabies down there at all. What do
you mean every time I tell in Aucklander that we
have wallabies down in way Medi, they all say they don't.
It's to the point where I'd messaged me last week

(34:42):
and say, you set me up because I was asked
to give an interesting fact that I knew in this
group situation, and I said that there's a town in
the South Island that has wallabies, and everybody said, no,
they don't, and so she lost the game that she
was playing. What's the It's the biggest gas lighting situation
I've ever been a part of. Because I've got all
these people telling me that we don't have wallabies down there.

Speaker 3 (35:04):
It's hard to get you hit around the idea of
the fact that there is just one city or one
town in your country that has got something.

Speaker 1 (35:10):
No.

Speaker 3 (35:10):
I think that's why we're struggling human is that the
idea that this is microclimate of wallabees is operating out
outside of a small town in the South Island. Yeah,
it is.

Speaker 4 (35:17):
Well. They were introduced about one hundred odd years ago.
They called the Bennett's Wallaby or the red nicked Wallaby,
and like everything else in Waymedi, they never left to
the point where the surrounding regions like the McKenzie Country
and North Otaga, and that they've got signs on the
side of the highway saying if you see a wallaby
ring this number to report it because they're starting to

(35:39):
leak out out of way media a lot of total.

Speaker 1 (35:42):
But are they embraced in Wymutty because I remember there
was a woman who I think she was part of
the way Mutty Yearly Center parade and she was she
was like looking after little babies.

Speaker 4 (35:55):
So she runs a little wallaby. So anytime a hunter
finds one or someone one gets hit and they've got
a joey, she'll bring them in. It's a place called
Ankle Dooovery Corner. It's just on the left there as
you're driving into Wyomedie. Go in there. She'll she'll give
you a pair of crocs to walk around and you
can feed the wallabies there. She's tried to sell that
to man. Mind misses about ten times what I might
buy it.

Speaker 1 (36:15):
Okay, so they're a piste. Yeah, they're shooting them and
they kill Yeah, you're to shoot them and kill them.

Speaker 4 (36:20):
Yeah, it's encouraged. We used to drive around just around
the back blox and do drive bys on one Wallabies
don't even get out of the car and she's running
a centctuury. She's running. Well, someone has to look after
the injured ones when they come in.

Speaker 1 (36:32):
Yeah, why don't you just sort of put them down
at that point? I mean they're injured, they're easy at
that point. They're very easy to put down if they're
a pissed.

Speaker 4 (36:38):
Yeah, I think most people do. But every now and
then someone gets a conscience and there needs to be
somewhere to take them and innkle Dooovery corners where it's at.
This is why I get so in my head when
people are like they don't exist. It's well, what did
I shoot out of the window? I met Crouch's car.

Speaker 3 (36:53):
You know a lot of hicks coming through and three
for three. As we discussed this, this Wallaby situation down
the Enye Mania, I mean, well like Agent one zero here,
hey fellers, there was also Wallabies on Kowo Island. We
were talking about Kawa Islander yesterday and then also a
lot of ticks saying this summer.

Speaker 4 (37:06):
I've heard that as well.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
Yeah, they are taking over New Zealand. It turns out
the Wallaby is taking over news. I mean they're basically
a bouncy rat, aren't they They are.

Speaker 4 (37:15):
They're not not quite like a small kangaroo like you'd imagine,
although I tell you what, you bloody drive through the
gorge at night in summer, one will bounce right into
your passenger seating your car. Really, it'll come through your
Instagram if you're not careful.

Speaker 1 (37:27):
Do they make good pts?

Speaker 2 (37:28):
No?

Speaker 4 (37:29):
No, I don't think so, unless you're into having rats
as a pit which is a whole different thing.

Speaker 1 (37:35):
I've once met a girl who had a rat as
a pet and it used to sort of just live
on her.

Speaker 3 (37:39):
Yeah, she had dreads. It was in the nineties.

Speaker 4 (37:41):
Well, rats will only go somewhere where they've already pee before,
so yeah, she's stunk of your own.

Speaker 2 (37:47):
It's terrible breakfast already.

Speaker 1 (37:50):
There's David from Hamilton on the line. Good morning, David,
how can we help you this morning morning.

Speaker 6 (37:56):
I've spotted a wallaby down and Rod. Yeah, they seem
to be taking over the mountain bike tracks down that way.

Speaker 1 (38:04):
Okay, this is interesting because of course former South Island
meetworking and I Stewart grew up in the home of
what I thought was the home of the wallaby, which
is way Mati the Wallaby country.

Speaker 4 (38:15):
But they are spreading what are they?

Speaker 7 (38:17):
Are?

Speaker 4 (38:17):
There a lot of them around there, David. Do you
see them all the time?

Speaker 6 (38:20):
Well, this is the first time I've seen them, but
there's a lot of signs up asking about them. So
I wonder if Fredero was trying to take your title.

Speaker 1 (38:26):
But that's really interesting. I mean, did they bounce their
way across the Cock Strait, because obviously you've got them
in the South Island, but were there heaps in the
North Island or do they bounce their way off Kwoh?

Speaker 4 (38:36):
I don't know, Dave. Do you think someone's smuggling them
up into the into the Bay Pliny region perhaps?

Speaker 6 (38:42):
Well they could be evolving in trying to take over,
because they were starting to look pretty scary and red
light like giants bouncing rats.

Speaker 4 (38:48):
Did you see if it had gills? Weird?

Speaker 1 (38:55):
I reckon, David, I reckon that people have moved them
up there.

Speaker 4 (39:00):
I think they have.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
Who would do that? That's such a weird thing to do.
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (39:05):
Well, eat them. Do you think people are taking them
up there to farm and eat them?

Speaker 4 (39:08):
Well, you can definitely eat them. There was a cafe
down in Way many that made wallaby pies for a
stretch there. They kin'd have sold very well because they
stopped making them pretty pretty swiftly. But yeah, they're eatable.

Speaker 1 (39:20):
Hey, thanks for you call, David. Let's go to Ben
from the Cargo Morning. Ben.

Speaker 3 (39:25):
Yeah, have you had a wallaby sighting?

Speaker 2 (39:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (39:28):
I still over the hell.

Speaker 1 (39:33):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (39:34):
We just shoot them there all the time.

Speaker 1 (39:36):
Okay, so they've obviously been there for some time.

Speaker 6 (39:38):
Then yeah, yeah, like I took about.

Speaker 3 (39:43):
Yeah, but there are.

Speaker 4 (39:49):
Different type, different brand. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (39:51):
Okay, that's interesting then, because yeah, I know that Governor
Gray who brought over some wallabies in the eighteen sixties,
early eighteen sixties. Yeah, Arwo Island, where he decided to
build a really bizarre Georgian mansion. He had. He bought
four types of wallaby, so he was so keen on
the wallaby he thought that he bring different types. He

(40:13):
also bought zebras. He also tried to bring monkeys.

Speaker 4 (40:17):
Now, did he bring the Fjordland moose, because there was
a moose released into Fjordland that apparently is still you
can find the descendants of Okay, but I don't know.

Speaker 1 (40:27):
Well, he bought antelope, but for some reason the antelope
didn't take on. He also brought zebras. Yeah in South Africa.

Speaker 4 (40:32):
I've heard this, and he released them one of the
Canterbury planes maybe yeah, they didn't take the wallabies did
by joves and all over the country. It seems.

Speaker 1 (40:40):
Should we go to Kyle his Kyle Morning, Kyle, Welcome
to the show.

Speaker 3 (40:43):
Hello, how are you Kylie?

Speaker 7 (40:47):
Okay? I quite lost problem. I actually wanted to remind
refresh Afy memories, but indied. Harold wrote an article in
May twenty two and there's a disasterly photo of more
than one hundred wallabies in this paddock at nighttime and
you can just see the silhouette, so it's just like

(41:09):
a ghostly, ghostly image. If you if you literally google
wallabies road a roa, it comes up with the New
Zealand article that they wrote. And this has been a
problem in the day of planning. Council have been well
aware that these pests are reproducing in numbers faster than
rabbits nearly. But there's you can see pictures of fields

(41:29):
of them about taking over New Zealand.

Speaker 4 (41:32):
Well they are because in some aguria, of course the
road's heat up, they will come out at night time,
they'll lie on the roads to keep warm. Now you're
stuck out at the wallshed party. You've been at till
three am. Your missus has come to pick you up.
You can't get back into town because there's one hundred
bloody wallabies on the road.

Speaker 1 (41:45):
Well, if they're going to take over in New Zealand,
they're going to have to stop that sort of behavior. Yeah,
that's right. That's not going to help them at all.

Speaker 4 (41:49):
We need a few more rules around it.

Speaker 2 (41:51):
I think you breakfast with Jeremy Wells.

Speaker 4 (41:55):
I've got a couple of I've got a story about
wallabies and also awards. Do we have a quick minute here?

Speaker 1 (42:02):
Well, we do have a quick minute, or we can
come back to it after eight o'clock.

Speaker 7 (42:05):
Up to you.

Speaker 4 (42:06):
I'll best through it. Basically, we do the pest Quest
in Wyomedy once a year where it's who can shoot
the most wallabies and the biggest swallowby In one year,
someone broke the record with the biggest wallaby that the
town had ever seen. See how they done that? Next
week they found out that a wallaby was missing, a
tame wallaby was missing from the park Victoria Park there. Wow,
he said, Oh, I can see what he's done here.

(42:27):
It turns out he's gone down the park shot the
biggest swallowby and then closure turned it in. He had
to give back all the money he won, he won
a T shirt and a hat, had to all go back.

Speaker 1 (42:38):
Wow, that's clever, it's easy, super clever. Coming up, maybe
we'll put wallabies to bed. Well, a huge amount of
text actually coming in. Wallaby sidings all around New Zealand.
Turns out there everywhere, but particularly in forest there where
they absolutely love it. They love the reasonably dry conditions,
I suppose. And then of course down in way May

(43:00):
as well. Apparently there's a wallaby that's crossed the main divide.
So as wallaby has been spotted in Haarst just a
single male.

Speaker 4 (43:09):
Oh really, it didn't have a sherber.

Speaker 1 (43:11):
No, it didn't have a sherber. It just somehow I
got there itself. Probably went looking for a mate and
went the wrong way, went went west instead of east.

Speaker 4 (43:17):
A lot of us have a lot of us have.

Speaker 3 (43:19):
That's right.

Speaker 1 (43:19):
Coming up after eight o'clock, Felicity Ward joins us. She
is the lead in the Australian version of the Office
which is coming out, so maybe in a week's time.

Speaker 4 (43:30):

I've got something to share about what Josh Thompson said
about working on the office ex So I need to
tell Felicity war about.

It's nice to have you with us this morning on
the hardachy break first form myself onland meatwork and the
nights Jeet's.

Speaker 4 (43:46):
Joining us having a ball mate. Didn't think we'd be
talking this much about Wallaby's today.

Speaker 1 (43:50):
I'll be honest, Well, it's yours. It's your subject, doesn't
it That is that would be your mastermind topic.

Speaker 4 (43:54):
Wallabees. Wallabies are our packers. Maybe we'll do our packers tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (43:58):
Yeah, she's here as well. Morning Mash. Yeah, morning.

Speaker 3 (44:00):
I'm actually just quite relieved, my no, because the last
couple of days we've had your boss. Actually I suppose
that the sec G laying on with us, and it's
been a fairly fecal focused show. I'd say we've we've
covered vomit, we've covered you know, poose, We've covered a
lot of below the belt stuff and it's good to
have have you in here with a bit of more
of a classy touch.

Speaker 4 (44:16):
I've brought a couple of crystals and some sage and
tried to tramp a few of the spirits out of here.
This is a cleansing this morning totally.

Speaker 1 (44:24):
We did the Big Three with g Lane. We did
the did the ways, did the pose and this view

Speaker 1 (44:45):
She is the star of the brand new Australian version
of the Office, which features a number of New Zealanders
as well. Actually it's out very shortly actually Friday on
Prime Video.

Speaker 2 (44:58):
Act you Breakfast with Jeremy Wells Radio.

Speaker 1 (45:02):
So she's a talented comedian and actress known for her
roles in the in Between Us, Time Bandits, Wakefield and
The Lit Down. Today, she's here to talk about your
Australian version of the Office. What she's playing the lead
boss character in Welcome to the Show. Felicity Ward.

Speaker 8 (45:18):
Hello, Hello, I like that you included the word talented.
Before Comedian, it felt like there was a question there.
You were like the talented straightaway mivor can I just
before we start the interview, can I tell you I
have like a minor superpower where I can go into
any female toilet and if there's a number of cubicles,
I will walk into the one that someone has just

(45:39):
done number two. It's just happened again.

Speaker 1 (45:41):
Oh yeah, okay, it's talent.

Speaker 8 (45:44):
Unfortunately, that's actually why you were describing me as talented.

Speaker 4 (45:47):
Well, that's the talent we're referring to it.

Speaker 1 (45:49):
Yeah, the thing is here, every single toilet cubicle because
they're semi public toilets. Oh and so the thing with
these have to mingle with the refract Next, people come
from all over New Zealand just to do number two's
and our particular toilets, and generally most people tend to
have some kind of bowershoe. Yeah.

Speaker 8 (46:08):
Yeah, Well, what's wonderful about the toilets it's the anonymity.
It's quiet, and there's a number of cubicles, So if
you're waiting outside, you can you can you can sider
it out long enough that you don't have to see
anyone that you waited in line with Well, it's the.

Speaker 4 (46:21):
Other sue we've got is we've got multiple building sites
around here and then also a bus terminal that's just
out there, so that these are not people with healthy diets.

Speaker 8 (46:29):
The nightmare mate, there are people that have been on
the bus for a long time.

Speaker 4 (46:32):
Yeah, yeah, struggle is real for us.

Speaker 8 (46:34):
I tell you, life sounds really tough for you guys.

Speaker 4 (46:37):
You're coming in the morning. The bases are loaded. All
four of the stalls have had some sort of hate crime.

Speaker 8 (46:43):
Make it's six fifteen.

Speaker 7 (46:44):
I don't need to look at this.

Speaker 8 (46:45):
I'm sorry to turn the conversation so disgusting.

Speaker 1 (46:48):
It's okay. We've been very We've been very downstairs focused
for the last three days because we've had a sc
hi lane in here. So that's no surprise for listening.
I've heard great things about the new Australian version of
The Office few our Australian continer at the Pixie Campbell
went to a screening last night. Three episodes. He said,
hilariously funny, he said, you were sensational.

Speaker 8 (47:08):
Oh that's nice.

Speaker 1 (47:09):
How embarrassing did you go to the screens? Did you
have to sit and watch an audience?

Speaker 3 (47:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (47:14):
And that's I don't think that that's a natural experience
for anyone that you sit in front of a cinema
and you've got a hundred strangers behind you and in
front of you is your head about ten foot and
you're like, this is no way to live.

Speaker 1 (47:26):
To be honest, Well, where do you sit in that situation?
Because I imagine people are probably watching you watch yourself
as well?

Speaker 8 (47:32):
Yeah, mabe, Well we sat down the front, so I
couldn't tell if people were looking at me, and I
certainly was going to turn around during the screen and
going what do you think, guys? How are you finding this?

Speaker 1 (47:42):
Could you feel the weight? Could you feel the weight
of their gaze?

Speaker 8 (47:45):
I think that I was just like emotionally dissociated from
the experience.

Speaker 4 (47:48):
So yeah, that's the.

Speaker 3 (47:50):
Weird thing, isn't it.

Speaker 1 (47:51):
Are you watching yourself when you're watching the show, or
are you watching.

Speaker 4 (47:56):
A character of yourself? If you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (47:59):
Can you distance it from you yourself?

Speaker 4 (48:01):
Well?

Speaker 8 (48:02):
The thing about the character is when I read it,
like when I read the scripts, it was basically every
annoying personality trait that I already have just put into
a character. So I haven't like the I'm like, I'm
so annoying. I'm the most annoying person I have undiagnosed ADHD.
So the amount of like i'd stay undiagnosed, I absolutely
have it. I've lost two referrals to get tested for ADHD.

(48:24):
I think that's the test. But like the amount of
my life that is like song breaks and dance breaks
and voices, so many voices, so many voices, or I
just put all of those into the show, and like
I had a prop bag and I carried a bluetooth
speaker in it, and so in between like setups and

(48:44):
takes and stuff, because it was I had to be
like in every scene, I just like pump tunes and
dance around like an idiot in between scenes. I have
no idea whether that was annoying or not. Because no
one's going to tell the number one.

Speaker 1 (48:57):
On the call sheet.

Speaker 8 (48:57):
I'm like, they look like they're having a good time.

Speaker 1 (49:00):
Is everyone into this and.

Speaker 8 (49:01):
They're like, yeah, yeah, we love it more than life itself.

Speaker 1 (49:04):
Felicity, it sounds like you're bringing a vibe, though I
am a vibe.

Speaker 8 (49:08):
Thank you for finally acknowledging.

Speaker 1 (49:10):
That, because it's an interesting situation taking on that particular
role for this particular show, The Office.

Speaker 4 (49:16):
We're talking to Felicity Ward.

Speaker 1 (49:17):
By the way, she's the star of if you're just
joined it, she's the star of the new Australian version
of the Office, because obviously you would have seen other officers.

Speaker 4 (49:26):
Turns out that there's thirteen.

Speaker 8 (49:27):
This is the thirteenth. Yeah, this is the thirteenth office.
There's like Saudi Arabia and I think Poland and Canada
and there's.

Speaker 1 (49:35):
All the Arabian Office.

Speaker 4 (49:37):
Does it translate female leader that one?

Speaker 8 (49:40):
There is not a female leader that you will be
surprised to know. No way, can't get a lead, can't
get a license.

Speaker 4 (49:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (49:51):
So I can't remember what the question was.

Speaker 4 (49:53):
I got so many of the things. So do you
are you conscious of not trying to do like a
Ricky Gervais?

Speaker 8 (50:00):
Do you know what when it came out? I was
born in the Cretaceous period, so I'm old enough that
when the British one came out that was such a
huge cultural impact and it affected It didn't just affect
like people that worked in comedy. It was everyone was
doing a Ricky Gervea's impression, every single person. So I
think that anyone who's old enough has probably some Javet's

(50:23):
mannerisms even with it, if it's like a word or
what have you. So I don't know, there might be
some in that, But do you know what happened? I
had never seen an episode of The American Office until
we'd finished, not intentionally, I just didn't watch it. And
I remember one of the takes one of the actors afterwards,
one of the background actors, because there's some people that
don't have lines, but they're in the office every day,

(50:44):
like quote unquote the Office. After the take, he was like,
oh my god, that was such a that was such
a Michael Scott moment. I'm like, I've never seen this show.

Speaker 1 (50:52):
Wow, So I don't hold that thoughtlessly. Stay with us,
We'll go to a song and we'll come back. So
I've also got to question regarding some of the other
cast members, because I know Josh Thompson, friend of the
show great, spent a lot of time doing something and
appropriate while he was filming The Office Australia.

Speaker 3 (51:10):
I know about it.

Speaker 1 (51:11):
We're with Flistney Wards. She's the star of the Office Australia,
which is out next Friday, Tber next Friday on Prime
video all episodes all around the globe.

Speaker 2 (51:22):
Too, the Ack You Breakfast all radio.

Speaker 1 (51:25):
We've got flsney Ward at the moment. She's the new
star of the Office Australia. Witch is out on the
eighteenth of October Friday, the eighteenth of October on Prime
video all round the world.

Speaker 8 (51:38):
Yeah, pretty intense. Hey, Can I just say, as a comedian,
hearing that clapping, it feels sarcastic. It's like you can hear.

Speaker 2 (51:50):
So.

Speaker 1 (51:50):
You worked with a whole lot of New Zealanders filming
this Australian version of the Office. One of them was
friend of the show, Josh Thompson.

Speaker 8 (51:57):
Yes, an angel, he told me. Yeah, but he's angel.

Speaker 1 (52:03):
He told me that he spent He said it was
such a great job to work on because his computer
was a real working.

Speaker 8 (52:10):
Computer as all of ours work, right, Yes, and he.

Speaker 1 (52:14):
Said he had to be in lots and lots of
shots in the background. Yes, and his computer screen wasn't in.

Speaker 8 (52:20):
Shot, there was no so behind him was a wall,
so you couldn't shoot behind Josh. So I can tell
you what he did. Yeah, he did his taxes, he
did his text he is his taxes and he also
edited his wife's short film.

Speaker 4 (52:33):
Yes, he said it was the most productive.

Speaker 1 (52:36):
It was unbelievable of his life.

Speaker 8 (52:37):
We'd go into like I'd go to do a scene
and he's like, hang on, I've just got to wind
up May twenty twenty two, and I'm like, Josh, can
we run the scene first please?

Speaker 4 (52:47):
Is he going to go to jail after filing those taxes?

Speaker 8 (52:50):
Well, I mean it's all on film, he is, So.

Speaker 1 (52:53):
Who's making the show? Who are the brain Who are
the brains behind the production part of it?

Speaker 8 (53:00):
I was like, Oh, who is making the show? Is
this an answeraction? So Jackie van Beek, you know National
Treasure is the setup director, and Julie Defina is the
head writer, and Jesse Griffin it was one of the
directors as well. They sort of created the storylines together
and wrote different episodes, so that that's sort of their

(53:21):
their baby.

Speaker 1 (53:22):
Does it go back to Recky Gervais? Does he have
to approve the scraps? Is that the way that it
works in terms of because as we were saying before,
it's a franchise. Yeah, thirteen different types all around the world, amazingly,
including Saudi Arabia, which.

Speaker 8 (53:37):
Freas me if we're not all going to google that
when we get off the.

Speaker 3 (53:40):
Show freaks me out.

Speaker 4 (53:41):
I woulatch that.

Speaker 8 (53:42):
I think I saw a clip of that on like
TikTok or something, and it was really funny. It really
it was really intense. I'm not gonna I think that. Look,
I could be getting myself into trouble here. Just look
it up yourselves.

Speaker 3 (53:53):
Geez.

Speaker 1 (53:54):
And So you were saying before that you haven't seen
the American version. You've seen the English version.

Speaker 8 (53:58):
So I have seen now got back from I got
back from filming. This is the wild thing that happened.
So on the last day of filming in Australia, they
did a couple of like, they did a couple of
the big monologues, the big famous ones from the British
one from the first couple of episodes, just in case
they ended up using. So the scripts are all original.

(54:18):
There's we don't like, there's no crossover apart from like
there's the echo and the structure and the vehicle of
the office. When you watch it, it is definitely the Office.
It's filmed like a mockumentary. There's a boss, there's sort
of like her sidekick. There's two love interests, and then
apart from that. It's all Australian, it's all original. But

(54:39):
when they were filming, they're like, hey, let's just do
a couple of the monologues just in case, because I
don't live in Australia, so if we end up going
down that route, we can use it. So I did
the monologue. You know, people say I'm the best boss,
I'm an entertainer that one, right, the iconic one, and
which feels so weird when you're doing it and you're like,
what are you doing mate?

Speaker 1 (54:56):
What are you saying these words for?

Speaker 8 (54:59):
So then I get back to London and then I
hadn't watched TV for ages, and I was like, oh,
I'll just pop TV on because I've been filming and
what have you. And anyway, you know how on some
streaming services they have a snippet or like a trailer
they when they've got all the shows that you can watch.
And I turn it on and it's Steve Carrell and
it says the Office and he's looking at the camera.

(55:19):
He's like, people say I'm the best Boss, and I'm like,
oh my god, that is going to be me.

Speaker 3 (55:24):
Wow.

Speaker 8 (55:24):
Yeah, So then I watched I started watching season two
because everyone told me you got to start with season
two of The American Office, and I was about four
episodes in. I'm like, I think this Steve Carell is
going places to watch. He's so funny, so funny.

Speaker 1 (55:38):
Felicity Ward, thank you so much for coming in Felicity
Ward's starring and The Office, the first female boss at
the Office, and the Office franchise.

Speaker 8 (55:47):
Three years later. Wow, not a moment too soon.

Speaker 1 (55:49):
Thank you so much for coming.

Speaker 4 (55:51):
I'm best of luck.

Speaker 1 (55:52):
It's out on Prime Video on Friday, October eighteenth, The.

Speaker 2 (55:55):
Hood Are You Breakfast? With Jeremy Wells on radio.

Speaker 1 (55:59):
Say thirty one on The Hicky Breakfast Time for the
latest news headlines. The US National Weather Service is now
easing people in Florida to stay where they are as
time to safely evacuate has passed. The outer bands of
Hurricane Milton are now being felt in parts of the
state with tornadoes and heavy rain. Officials have warned people
will die.

Speaker 3 (56:19):
So the idea is that that's going to be kicking
off tonight their time or tonight our.

Speaker 4 (56:22):
Time, tonight our time.

Speaker 3 (56:25):
Do they have any idea on how long they think
this might go on for? Is it a couple of days.
I think I've seen in the headlines it's going to
be a wee while. I think for these people that
are stuck now.

Speaker 4 (56:34):
I've seen the satellites. Jeez, you don't want to be
still there when they say all right, you've missed that,
you've missed the cutoff. You're now just gonna stay.

Speaker 3 (56:40):
We are you need to follow that up people, And
then people are coming out saying that people that have
stayed will die. So it's quite a it's going to
be quiet.

Speaker 4 (56:46):
I thought they were saying that don't expect emergency responders
to risk their lives to go and save anyone that's
still there after they've told everyone to leave.

Speaker 1 (56:53):
Geez, I've set everything up. I mean they've got stadiums
just with beards full ready to go for people. We've
got this weird thing going on in New Zealand where
every time they come in with a severe warning that
something's going to happen, nothing ever happens. Do you notice
that the only times when they don't, something major happens.
And so now we've got weird trust issues with that

(57:13):
sort of warning.

Speaker 4 (57:14):
Yeah, it's the boy who cried. Well, if it's like
every time there's some sort of weather event in Auckland,
they shut the bridge and they're like, we're gonna shut
the bridge, so you'll gott to leave work. Now, ironically
that causes the traffic and that's actually the only issue
that ever happens. Yeah, ridiculous.

Speaker 1 (57:27):
And in New Zealand, flight from christ Church to Auckland
has made an emergency landing in Nelson this morning because
of an air conditioning fault. There were no passengers on
board and it was a repositioning flight. Meanwhile, Quantas has
apologized for a glitch that saw all passengers showing a
mature rated film. The sexually explicit drama Daddy Oh, was
played on the Sydney to Tokyo Flights entertainment system, with

(57:50):
some travelers forced to watch the film as their screens
wouldn't turn off.

Speaker 3 (57:53):
No, we talked about this on the show yesterday. It's
to courtA Johnson and Sean Penn. I believe going hammer
and tongs for a few scenes on flight, but the
thing was you couldn't even turn off the screen, so
if you wanted to have a snooze or anything like that,
you were just being waterboarded. It was essentially some form
of torture, I think for a lot of families.

Speaker 4 (58:10):
Although if you wanted to watch that video, you've now
got free license, because you know, sometimes you're on the
plane and like a fight scene or some sort of
adult content will come on, like oh geez, sorry, no
I'm not actually watching this. Now you've got free free raid.

Speaker 6 (58:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (58:23):
Weirdly enough, it was a vote that was taken like
I always wanted. They voted like people said, what do
we want to watch? Because everyone's gonna have to watch
the same thing, and everyone went, daddy, oh won the vote.

Speaker 4 (58:32):
What did it beat? What was the other option?

the Rings, try and get you through to the flight. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (59:06):
Year the Breakfast Alradio.

Speaker 1 (59:10):
So there's a study out that we talked about in
the news earlier on which has found that gen zs
and millennials are using AI like chat jet GBT for example,
for emotional support. Because apparently the research which is being
conducted by an eco friendly insect repellent, I mean, that's
weird in itself.

Speaker 3 (59:30):
It's red flagged around this already, but has.

Speaker 1 (59:31):
Found one Indian Americans believe AI is more effective than
pets for emotional support. Apparently gen Z is more likely
to choose a dog over a cat for easing stress,
while cheer up chickens are on the rise. Cheer up
chickens na chicken to cheer you up?

Speaker 4 (59:47):
You can't pat. I mean you can pat a chicken,
but it's not the same thing as it.

Speaker 3 (59:49):
So gen Z is nineteen ninety seven to twenty twelve,
Is that right? I think that's about right.

Speaker 1 (59:55):
When you you're born in ninety nine, Yeah, you were
conceived in ninety nine as a hate baby. Went you
off the back of the Rugby World Cup final loss
too or the semi final to France.

Speaker 3 (01:00:06):
Yeah, my dad was upset. Listen to marry Dickie. Yeah,
we've talked about this many of times. But yeah, I
am a gen Zia and so I don't know if
I have noticed an uptaken people my age, you know,
using checchi pet's an emotional support type of thing as
opposed to animals. I don't even know.

Speaker 4 (01:00:20):
Maybe we are, because don't you have like on Snapchat.
Isn't there a thing where you can talk to the
GPT thing? You know, I don't have Snapchat. You probably
don't have Snapchat. I think that's a generational thing here.

Speaker 3 (01:00:32):
I'm just firing it up.

Speaker 4 (01:00:33):
Yeah, and doesn't it have like your own personal sort
of assistant person that you can talk to?

Speaker 3 (01:00:37):
Yeah, So at the top of the chat where where
you can see all my messages here Jerry for you,
I'm just gonna have to man's part snapchat to a
lot of women. What is snapchat? Are you just call
the amount of No, don't read those, not any of
those women anyway. At the top there, you've got something
that is my aiyeh, which you can just click on
and then you can just start talking to AI.

Speaker 1 (01:00:56):
Okay, And why are all those female names down?

Speaker 3 (01:01:00):
Who are those people?

Speaker 1 (01:01:01):
I've never heard of any of those people's Mikayla. That's interesting.
They're all females. That's You've got a lot of female friends,
don't you. No?

Speaker 3 (01:01:08):

Speaker 4 (01:01:10):
Are they real people?

Speaker 3 (01:01:11):
Or are they?

Speaker 4 (01:01:12):
How many sisters?

Speaker 3 (01:01:12):
Have you got a lot? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:01:14):
She's okay? Do you have seven?

Speaker 3 (01:01:16):
We we've been focusing on the wrong thing here, fellas.

Speaker 1 (01:01:18):
Do you speak to any of your male friends on
Snapchat or not?

Speaker 2 (01:01:21):
No?

Speaker 3 (01:01:21):
No, I keep those conversations.

Speaker 4 (01:01:23):
I work with your long suffering partner over the other
side of the building. I'm going to have to now
sit beside her for the next eight hours of my
working day.

Speaker 3 (01:01:31):
Yeah, all right, okay, Well, maybe you shouldn't have mentioned that.

Speaker 4 (01:01:34):
It'd be like, jeez, Finn's got a lot of sisters,
doesn't he.

Speaker 1 (01:01:37):
You don't need to your sister.

Speaker 3 (01:01:38):
You don't need to. Who's Jenna? There's Genna on the phone?
There is it?

Speaker 1 (01:01:41):
Jenna?

Speaker 3 (01:01:41):
Is she your sister? No? That was just someone I
went to school worth back in the day.

Speaker 1 (01:01:44):
So I'm looking here at the because people say, well,
what as the generations? They say, as you said, ninety
seven to twenty twelve, perceived as digital natives, socially conscious
and entrepreneurial, but with shorter attention spans and a propensity
for rigorous and frequent self pleasure.

Speaker 3 (01:02:01):
Okay, someone seems there and that's you.

Speaker 1 (01:02:06):
No, apart from the entrepreneurial bit, No, but the rigorous part,
in particular very rigorous millennials. So this is this is you,
eighty one to ninety six Syria type, just tech savvy,
entitled and idealistic. Now that's you with a strong focus
on social causes and a lack of home ownership.

Speaker 4 (01:02:23):
Yeah, I don't know. I don't. I don't have a
strong focus on any social causes and I actually do
own a home.

Speaker 1 (01:02:28):
But oh, okay, so you're bucking the tree.

Speaker 4 (01:02:31):
I am bucking the tree.

Speaker 3 (01:02:32):
So you might be identifying as a genixa.

Speaker 1 (01:02:33):
Then I'm at eighty.

Speaker 4 (01:02:36):
People always identify me as a genixer. They think I'm
older than I am, of an old soul.

Speaker 3 (01:02:41):
People also identify you as Arab.

Speaker 4 (01:02:43):
Yes they do. My God, when I was in the
Middle East, just Arabic the entire time. All my friends
they'll be like, hello, where are you from? And then
me's Luma leg and my brother yelly, yello.

Speaker 3 (01:02:54):
I saw you on a dish dash.

Speaker 4 (01:02:56):
It's like I'll come to La La.

Speaker 1 (01:02:58):
It was like your homecoming. Yeah, you were going to
get the tablets from outsiini.

Speaker 4 (01:03:02):
My brother, Oh money, our money. So the generation XX.

Speaker 1 (01:03:05):
Sixty five to eight, he' seen his independent, skeptical, and adaptable,
often valuing work life balance see no negatives. No, it
is for Gen X and then baby boomers viewed as
hard working. They are from forty six to sixty four,
hard working, loyal, and resistant to change, often associated with
traditional values and huge home ownership.

Speaker 4 (01:03:23):
Yeah yeah, but that the baby boomers one sums them
up more than the rest of them. I think, yeah,
resistant to change. Isn't that the most baby Boomer thing
of all time? Is there a generation before baby Boomers?
Or did we not have names before that? That's where
it started. I think that was year zero, wasn't it.
There's the big bang before the baby boomers. Okay, there's
a Texas has come in. What are we?

Speaker 1 (01:03:41):
Jerrygen X, the generation that raised themselves out playing all
day only came in for dinner. Zero emotional support from
our parents. Yet that was definitely me one hundred percent.

Speaker 3 (01:03:52):
