Speaker 1 (00:10):
Welcome back to the muster. The music is the Food Fighter.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Is that song there Monkey Wrench from back in the
mid nineties. As we catch up next with Andrew lums
And you're known as Tereda, the voice of New Zealand
Young Farmer of the Year of the New Zealand Farmer
of the Year competition.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
That is Terda Welcome. We catch you in Queenstown today.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
I believe yes, I am transiting through Queenstown. I'm on
my way to Hearst for the tenth anniversary or tenths,
I guess tense white Boat Festival. So I got a
beautiful driver ahead of me. I'm looking forward to a
little bit of hask hospitality and it should be fun,
gorgeous weather, beautiful flying. And I was at the water
conference and Queen and christ at your week begin International
(00:49):
Water Conferences, so we have never flown Queenstown or Christich Queenstown,
so it's kind of Look what a gorgeous flight that is.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Now it's been a couple of months, it's huge and
got the chocolates and number Cargill actually July to be precise.
So what have you what have you been doing after
over the last few months?
Speaker 3 (01:07):
Look as regusting is trying to turned up the other day. Actually,
I saw a photo of that on the old Instagram.
We've been pretty flat out. Actually, we've been various corporates
and things like that. When it was field days field
just before.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Or after that was before that was middle of joke, Yeah,
it was.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
It all just blends into one. And I know district's
finals or district district competitions are starting for that, but
we've been pretty flat out. We're doing a lot of
promotion at the moment. A book out this week on
rural New Zealand and a hundred objects. That's called Kiewi Country,
and my wife is my co writer and collaborator, has
been for sort of twenty odd years. We looked at
a hundred one hundred different objects and we tried to
(01:43):
find really interesting in cookie sort of stories that we
hadn't seen anyone tell before, to celebrate all those little
things about what it means to be part of rural
New Zealand. So that hit the stores on Monday. Haven't
seen it in this store yet because I've been touched away,
but I'm looking forward im call him and Wonker and
see if I can see it in the store.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
There give an example of one of these objects, all.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Right, actually the very first the very first one. And
I think this was relatively inadvertent as done it. We
looked at it at Duney because when you've got a
hundred objects, it's very hard to figure out, you know,
what the hundred are going to be. So we narrowed
it down into ten different sections of homestead, almost as
if the way you approach approach a rural property homestead
(02:23):
all the way through to back blocks and gravel roads.
So Dunny is there. I particularly like the box on hedge,
one of the Butler brothers boxed on hedge cut of
blades that you can find in either Tafty or the
pokiades in museum. These incredible big composite bits of steel
and iron that they've welded together in their sheds and
(02:43):
they've stuck them on a tank or a truck motor
and mounted doves on the back of a truck or
a brain gun carrier. And and look attack those boxorn
hedges up there in Tartanuki, and they're just when you
see them, they're they're like a work of art there,
they're sculptural. You can see the hundreds of hours of
ware on them. I love them.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
You talk about bring gun carriers an individual of Bell
and Noah Holland used to own one of them, and
every year that have an event, I mean to bring
it into Bell for part of the parade, take kids
for rides in it.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
It was an epic machine.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
Oh, they're a great machine as well. And we sort
of reference a little bit of that Kevy engineer with
a simple tank in there as well, but plenty of
other things that people recognize. You know, I really like
the chapter on bunge of cords. If there's any advice
I could give to anyone based upon did the research
for one hundred objects, be really careful around bungee cords?
Notorious for ironjuries just you know that, I think most
(03:36):
iron injuries that just got caused by a bunge of
cord here. But also very useful as it turns out,
we discovered or tightening fake uteruses when it comes to
practicing at the school of various things like that, you
can't get the various various states of them. Just tighten
up the fake uterus bag with a bit of a
bunge of cord.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Kaifak sounds very keyy now, Hast's a beautiful town. I'll
be honest, I haven't been through there for quite a while.
But when you head through that way on the as
a gateway to the West Coast and the likes, it's
a really cool place.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Look, I'm now, I don't know that I've ever been.
I know I've been to Real because I know I
filmed down there. I don't know whether I've got as
far as Heart and now I'm fooling the increasingly failing
memory banks that I have. I know I've certainly I
don't think I've ever driven Highway six Wanica. Har we
(04:31):
are Heart. Maybe this is a new experience for me.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Well, where you go, don't get lost, and I hope
you've got the GPS sort of.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
Look, I'm just going to keep driving until I to see,
but I'm looking forward. Wouldn't mind getting down to Jackson Bay.
And I know that the people who are taking me
over they center a long checklist of scenic spots that
I can stroll to, including I think Roaring Billy Falls
and various others. So I'm going to have a beautiful day.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
So just finally, mate, when do you start up again
with the young farmer? So you involve the districts at all.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
No, I have nothing to do with the districts other
things other than sort of keeping an eye on their
social media. I think we're back mid February, and I
think we start Otago Southron where we finished off, and
we head up through the various I think Kasman and
Old Angie, and then we're into the North Island. And
it's a little isn't it that wonderful seasonal reminder that
life continually moves on. You know, you've got your your
(05:24):
field days, you've got your grandfad, and you've got your
carving or your lemming, and then you've got your districts,
and then your head your regionals and then and then
you start all over again.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Yeah, we're talking about it in the office this morning. Mentally,
it feels like we're so should only be in April.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Oh, I cannot believe how fast this year's got. You know,
I'm already now sort of planning. I've got quite a
lot of stuff coming up towards the end of this month,
and that's and then that's November, and then by the
time November's done and dusted, we'll be into December, and
you know, it'll be summertime.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
