Laughing, just smashed your laptop onto your microphone, coming like
a ricking ball.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Good morning this morning. We got a massive show.
Speaker 4 (00:20):
Just getting my head around.
Speaker 5 (00:21):
I was just saying that before we got Chelsea Handler,
us comedian. We've got Teddy Swims, who's amazing singer, Mike

whole lot of calls this morning.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
And yeah, Briscos vouchers.
Speaker 4 (00:35):
It's one of those days if you turn up to
work and you haven't thought how much work there is
a hitdie and then you go, damn, we had a
lot going on.
Speaker 5 (00:40):
It should be a Friday, we should be checking out,
but anyway we're not. But yesterday, to add another thing
to our calendars, you decided I need to be a
catalog model.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Yesterday, right, Yeah, we did the photo show yesterday.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Very exciting.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
Well, your daughter actually she planted this beautiful seed for
us and we ran with it and she said you
look like a model.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Well, yes, she's like Stresa a catalog model.
Speaker 6 (01:03):
I know.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
It's like, oh great, so I'll take it.
Speaker 5 (01:05):
And then you guys were like, you can't claim to
be a catalog model without being in the catalog. So
yesterday a company that you know, Edwards and.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
A good New Zealand company. They do all baby paraphernalia,
shall we say, like prams, cots, all sorts. So you
were you were modeling a pram?
Speaker 5 (01:21):
Can I say you're very good at the basically the
artistic direction of it. Megan, Yeah, very good at going
the shot here should be there. That was very impressive.
John know, well you're you're well no, well, you were
in charge of bringing the baby along. Yes, it's you
know where it's pushing a pram.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
So I grabbed a doll from popping my daughter's room
and our generation doll wrapped it.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Up and it was it really a baby. It was
probably more three to four.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
Why are they still pushing that three or four year
old around in the pram? Yeah, you know, rap drapping
a little swaddle and you had to like hold the baby,
look lovingly and adoringly at it.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
You did great, great, it's a direction from you. Actually
you looked lovingly at that doll like your own child.
Speaker 5 (02:03):
It was a real baby. But then when we wanted
a real baby, you had an alternative option. And we're like,
what's going on here, and off you went behind a
tree and this happened. Okay, we're here at the park,
we're doing my photo shoot, and JOHNO has gone behind
a tree right by the playground and he is now
getting well he's already changed, pre changed into an adult diaper.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
I don't think we should have done this by the playground.
Speaker 5 (02:26):
Like he's like, he's gone on a tree, but it's
right with the playground, Like it's you're.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
Hiding from us, but now you're playing side of the kids.
To be fair, there's no there is kids.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
There's kids. Yeh oh god, it looks like a big baby.
Look at him.
Speaker 7 (02:40):
Oh my goodness, Oh my goodness. Wow, low point in
everyone's life. What she came over and just nothing but
an adult diaper.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
Adult diapers. Yeah, definitely going to show up on some
CCTV footage. Is a person of interest some point?
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Very white, Yeah, that's all we could say.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
So lights.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
Yeah, when you're outside and it's sunny and you look
at something white and it's so blinding that.
Speaker 5 (03:07):
It was you a week to write that song about
a blinding light blinding the first whoa wow, I was.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
I gonna write a hat song about that.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
It is yeah, very wintery, right white completion. But then
I was like, well, I know he's going to complain
about the doll that it doesn't look realistic enough so
to buy some insurance and making babies. It takes nine
months to create humans. So I was like, bang, we
come up with a solutions based type of guy.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
We'll put the photos up today.
Speaker 5 (03:34):
Maybe even if you have a big baby as well
at sub stage this morning and you could be winning
a pram mastroller from Edwards and Coves, Well, we'll tell
you how you can do that just after seven o'clock.
But next, it's a very it's a sad day at
the last day of news Hub the Aim Show, and
next we're going to reflect on some of our favorite
moments in three minutes.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
The HiT's the johonaan Ben podcast TEKS fourteen.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
On a Friday, we like to flash back on a
Friday and look back at something very iconic nostalgia, and
today it is a big day news Hub on TV three.
It's a very final Am show. It's a very final
bulletin news Hub today. The three News is going to
carry on on stuff and also on TV three but
it's kind of sad. Make McRoberts who joins us after
seven it's his very last bulletin.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
Yeah, rip, it's news Hub.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
And if you're said that's going well, then look at yourselves.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Look at yourselves.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
Consuming your news on your phone all day and not
waiting patiently until six o'clock to digest the topical stories.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
It's your fault. Okay, right, put the blattin on the
audience there.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
But it is it's a sign of the times, isn't it.
And it's said that so many people are losing their
jobs hundreds.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
Yeah, we're going to get, you know, the nostalgic with
Mike McRoberts after seven o'clock today when he joins us.
But we thought, right now, let's look at some of
the lighter moments from news Hub over the years, from
TV three news, the iconic three News and Mike McRoberts.
One of his well more iconic moments and we actually
we played it to him on our TV show was
a very low point. Hevery listen, Oh this might be
one of the most embarrassing moments of my life.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
The bank says it won't happen until the middle of
next year, at least while some first home boners are
locked out of it.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Buyers have locked out of the market home boners.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
I mean, he's had a pretty blemish free correct. He
said words, bloody correct a lot of words every night
for twenty years his boner.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
And we're like, oh, I don't know, just given the
current interest rates, I don't know what the opposite of
a home boner is.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Pretty much got that at the moment, not giving us
hard bonus?
Speaker 5 (05:31):
Is that another moment for Mike mc roberts that I
like to sign off from the news where he kind
of gave it a James bond Esk sign off.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Have listen, Well, that's today's news on three.
Speaker 6 (05:40):
I'm Hillary Barry, I'm mc roberts.

Speaker 10 (05:51):
No, Chucky, And there I think, try something new tonight
in Campbell's But oh, of course, the project at seven
PM said the end of At the end of last year,
one of our favorite moments was the wonderful Carno Alloyd
talking about a box of Cadbury chocolates that was coming
back with some new flavors, and unfortunately the comeback wasn't
(06:12):
quite what she said.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
After getting ditched back in twenty eighteen strawberry cream, orange

Speaker 5 (06:39):
Hilarry Barry, who you now just think obviously does a
great job on seven sharp. She was in the morning
reading the news with Paul Henry.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
That's right, only he was doing the AM show, wasn't he?
And this was a wonderful This brings a smile to
your face. There was a court case going.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
On with the guy, quite a full on story.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
It was very seriously I think she saysn't there, this
isn't yeah. It looks like a six A salt story
or something, and sort of ended up in a weird
terminology for him needing to come inside and use the
toilet he seated he had an emergency defication situation needed
to use her bathroom, but the judge in the case
found he had a sexual motive.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Emergency situation.

You didn't take the advice of the vet.
Speaker 8 (09:25):

Here we going.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
We're doing well.
Speaker 4 (10:42):
It's lovely to have you on this morning, on this
crisp morning. Now you're an exvet nurse, I am. Yeah, jeez, Peter,
you would have seen some money. What would they say,
see some money change change?
Speaker 13 (10:54):
Yeah, the puppy he was a lad probably about nineteen
weeks old at the time, and the couple, I don't
know what they were doing, they're a family. They had
the window down and the dog jumped out, well.
Speaker 11 (11:09):
The puffy jumped out of the window.
Speaker 13 (11:11):
They were tolling a boat trailer at the time, and.
Speaker 11 (11:13):
The boat trailer run him over.
Speaker 13 (11:16):
So he did come into us. But we were in
a specialist comic so specialist surgery, and they did two surgeries.
One didn't work because the pin they put in his
leg was far too big and then pushing on his
nerves and causing him a lot of pain. So he
had to have another surgery on top of it. And
each surgery was costed them nine thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Wow.
Speaker 13 (11:36):
So yeah, so they were already eighteen thousand. And that's
not including he was coming into follow ups. He was
coming in for X rays to see how everything was.
So yeah, so I think probably all I heard from
some colleagues of mine at the time that he his
owner's family had remortgaged their house in order to help
pay for ongoing costs.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
He's guilt there that way, because it's fold. It was
just he's just a little puppy, you know.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Well, there you go. That's that's the love of an
animal right there.
Speaker 11 (12:05):
Absolutely, Yeah, that's.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Some people will do it.
Speaker 14 (12:08):

stage in life too, Like a puppy's still got their
whole life. Heare of them.

Why's the North Island having the best weekend?
Speaker 11 (14:35):

Speaker 8 (14:43):
North Not fireworks, but we do have a rehead?
Speaker 1 (14:48):

Speaker 5 (14:56):
It's going to reevaluate myself, alight, let's going.
Speaker 8 (15:01):
So we have a Festival of Graytown, which actually had
fire which last week, but for the month of July. Greytown,
which is a gorgeous, quaint little historical town, comes to
life from midwinter Christmas. They've got snowfall outside of the
town hall. They've got night markets, Christmas lights everywhere. And
I was there last week, had a mulled wine before.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
That sounds light beautiful.
Speaker 8 (15:26):
It was wonderful. And the kids stand under the snowfall,
which is fake. I probably shouldn't have to say it's fake,
but it's fake.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
They've got real snow in christ, don't you kind of yes?
Speaker 3 (15:37):
Or ice coal?
Speaker 1 (15:38):
So coal.
Speaker 8 (15:42):
And then moving up north as well or down depending
on where you are on the island. Auckland has an
Alti square ice rink, So this is the rink that
starts just over a month. You can go. That's so nice.
You can go on ice skate and then they've also
got a cooling rings. You could train up with the
(16:03):
sport and potentially get to the Olympics.
Speaker 11 (16:05):
So what got an Olympic weekend?
Speaker 4 (16:07):
Yeah, what we're lacking in real snow in the north,
we're making up with artificial ice and snow.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Okay, Meghan, it's over to you.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
I don't think we can go past Connor can we.
We've got fireworks, We've got the hot springs.

I'll do is I'll play you a few notes. And
then he said, and I didn't realize he was actually

Speaker 3 (18:28):
It is concerning when your mother sends me a one
second message that just goes no o O ca't yet.

Speaker 1 (18:49):
Ah.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
She did send me a big possum jacket and wondered
if I wanted that, and I said I'd be canceled
if I was wearing fur.
Speaker 9 (18:57):
I was a bit concerned because of the poss jacket
had the little possum face on it on the shoulder
and I got the two little teeth at the front
had gone all funny and and I'm sure you would
love it, but I can't find the possum.
Speaker 2 (19:14):

Speaker 4 (19:19):
You have still got the face on the shoulder the
left faces on them.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
One of those saying the example used to hit one.
Speaker 9 (19:27):

up for the boy.
Speaker 3 (19:34):

a Maclamore moment.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 16 (19:38):
Ok.
Speaker 4 (19:40):
And now you're doing the very, the very parents thing.
My parents do the same whenever they come to visit.
Because you coming to visit, Megan, you clear out all
of our old stuff and then burden us with that.
Jenny Boyce does the same to Ben.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Yeah she does.
Speaker 9 (19:53):
Yeah, I know what will happen. I'll bring it up
and when I've gone, I'll throw it in the bin.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Well that's why I said I didn't want any of it.
I said, I will just put it out and so
get rid of it.
Speaker 5 (20:01):
And your mom said, oh no, you can't do that,
and put it back in her car and took her
back home.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
So I was like, oh, well, she's on.
Speaker 3 (20:06):

I don't think I only got credit.
Speaker 9 (20:12):
Like throw it out in the wool and yeah no, no,
don't do singing either.
Speaker 4 (20:20):
This is a classic parent conversation too, when the other
parent joins in as well, my mom and dare do
that too.
Speaker 9 (20:26):
Yeah, he's just coming and is interfering as my conversation.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
Yeah, it's your moment.

Speaker 5 (23:31):
And I was watching a video last night explaining some
of your tattoos, and you're like, my first tattoo I
got was a real douchebag tatto.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
What was it?
Speaker 17 (23:38):
Yeah, I got so I was sixteen, and it was
fright here in my arm. It said, uh, it was
a cross with my last name in one banner of
my real last name, Dimsdell and then established nineteen ninety two.
So yeah, I mean by the time I was eighteen,
I was like a completely different person, you know. And
so I I always tell people, don't let sixteen year
old get tattoos. You know, they're just they're just different
people by the time they're eighteen, you know, kids, it's
(24:00):
just too early to make a long life decision like that,
so that I've got to take tattoo advice from.
Speaker 4 (24:05):
I see you got someone on your eye lids. Yeah,
it's sure are Oh my gosh, hell is that?
Speaker 17 (24:11):
It's kind of like it doesn't hurt as bad as
you think, but it's just as a wild sensation.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
You know.
Speaker 17 (24:15):
The needles so small, so you kind of feel your
eyeball bouncing like with the needle.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 17 (24:20):
It kind of like irritates it. You cry a little
bit underneath it.
Speaker 3 (24:23):
It doesn't hurt.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
It's just weird, you.
Speaker 5 (24:24):
Know, because your music gets used in special occasions. People
use it for wedding songs and you know moments like that,
have you got your hit around?
Speaker 2 (24:31):
How cool that is?
Speaker 5 (24:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 17 (24:32):

day I'll go through messages and be like, hey, could
you sing at our wedding in twenty twenty nine?
Speaker 2 (24:38):
You know, like and I love. I love to be the.
Speaker 17 (24:42):
Person that gets to be a part of somebody's huge
days and something that you know, because no matter what happens,
and no matter all the songs that ever come out
in the world, if you have a true love song
that was your first dance at your wedding. I will
always be a part of that beautiful moment thirty years
from now.
Speaker 4 (24:56):
Well, yeah, you can just tell your appreciative of every
moment of your of your career too. But someone locking
in the wedding in twenty twenty nine, it's not like
you can say, oh, I've got something else on.
Speaker 2 (25:06):

very good with technology. So I just, you know, if
I can answer the phone at all, that's going to
be a bonus.
Speaker 3 (37:03):
What kind of so you've answered the phone to a
couple of whidos, Like, what kind of things do they say?
Speaker 12 (37:07):
You want?
Speaker 4 (37:07):
Money?
Speaker 3 (37:08):
Is usually people?
Speaker 6 (37:09):
Yeah, people are always If you look through my DMS,
it's like, you know, my dog has some disease and
you're you're my last hope, and you want to help
these people. And in the beginning of my career, I
would I would give money to stranger and then someone
tried to assue me for giving them money. So I
was I was advised by my business managers. Never, yes,
(37:32):
I gave somebody money to get their teeth fixed, because
I made a joke about people who don't have teeth
in the South. And there was a Southern woman and
she said, you know, not everybody can afford teeth, and
I was.
Speaker 4 (37:42):
Like, well, I'll buy you teeth.
Speaker 6 (37:42):
Okay, you're right, not everybody can afford And so it
was like ten or fifteen thousand dollars to get this
woman a full set of teeth, and then she didn't
like them and wanted another set of teeth.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
Oh God.
Speaker 6 (37:52):
And then my lawyers are like, please stop responding to people.
You can't buy people teeth. I was like, message received
and clear.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
I love the goal of it too. They don't suit
my mouth.
Speaker 6 (38:03):
I was like, yeah, exactly. She was like I got
her tea. It's like she wanted to return the teeth,
So I mean, you really can't.
Speaker 3 (38:10):
You can't.
Speaker 6 (38:11):
You can't try before you buy no, no, Now, I
just don't open my DMS. It's like, because you do
feel sympathy for people, you want to help people, but
you can't help everybody, and who knows what these people
are up to?
Speaker 4 (38:22):
So Bet, I think that's why people are drawn to you,
because you're such a genuine person. And I feel like
what you see is what you get with you. And
there's at one moment that I'd love to love to
play with you. It's one of my favorite moments that you.
Speaker 2 (38:33):
And Piers Morgan.
Speaker 4 (38:35):
So Piers Morgan's interviewing you and then jouring the air break,
he's on his phone or something.
Speaker 6 (38:40):
I mean, you can't even pay attention for sixty seconds.
You're a terrible interviewer.
Speaker 2 (38:44):
Well, you just weren't keeping my attention.
Speaker 6 (38:46):
That's my problem, your problem.
Speaker 3 (38:48):
This is your show.
Speaker 6 (38:49):
You have to pay attention to the guests that you
invaded on your show. Interesting enough, Yeah, they listen. It
doesn't matter how interesting I am. You signed up for
this show. That's why the job is coming to it. Yeah,
he's terrible. He's he's the worst interviewer.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Of all time. Well, I wanted to know what was
he looking at on his phone?
Speaker 6 (39:06):

been really tired that day and had no you know,
I can't curse, but you know, know what's left in me.
Speaker 3 (39:26):
But more than that, it's like you up against a
bully and in that situation, most of the time we
know what we want to say, but nothing comes out eloquently.
You were so calm and you're just like calling him out.
Speaker 13 (39:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (39:38):
Yeah, it was an out of body experience because at
some point is it awkward afterwards? Oh yeah yeah, I
mean yeah he hates me. I mean I welcome that,
but yeah, after the interview, he's like, wow, you really
did it. I'm like, you're you know, I kept going.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
Good morning this morning. We got a massive show.
Speaker 4 (00:20):
Just getting my head around.
Speaker 5 (00:21):
I was just saying that before we got Chelsea Handler,
us comedian. We've got Teddy Swims, who's amazing singer, Mike
mc roberts as well. Heaps chances to go see pinking
about the next twenty minutes. We're going to take a
whole lot of calls this morning.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
And yeah, Briscos vouchers.
Speaker 4 (00:35):
It's one of those days if you turn up to
work and you haven't thought how much work there is
a hitdie and then you go, damn, we had a
lot going on.
Speaker 5 (00:40):
It should be a Friday, we should be checking out,
but anyway we're not. But yesterday, to add another thing
to our calendars, you decided I need to be a
catalog model.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Yesterday, right, Yeah, we did the photo show yesterday.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Very exciting.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
Well, your daughter actually she planted this beautiful seed for
us and we ran with it and she said you
look like a model.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Well, yes, she's like Stresa a catalog model.
Speaker 6 (01:03):
I know.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
It's like, oh great, so I'll take it.
Speaker 5 (01:05):
And then you guys were like, you can't claim to
be a catalog model without being in the catalog. So
yesterday a company that you know, Edwards and.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
A good New Zealand company. They do all baby paraphernalia,
shall we say, like prams, cots, all sorts. So you
were you were modeling a pram?
Speaker 5 (01:21):
Can I say you're very good at the basically the
artistic direction of it. Megan, Yeah, very good at going
the shot here should be there. That was very impressive.
John know, well you're you're well no, well, you were
in charge of bringing the baby along. Yes, it's you
know where it's pushing a pram.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
So I grabbed a doll from popping my daughter's room
and our generation doll wrapped it.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Up and it was it really a baby. It was
probably more three to four.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
Why are they still pushing that three or four year
old around in the pram? Yeah, you know, rap drapping
a little swaddle and you had to like hold the baby,
look lovingly and adoringly at it.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
You did great, great, it's a direction from you. Actually
you looked lovingly at that doll like your own child.
Speaker 5 (02:03):
It was a real baby. But then when we wanted
a real baby, you had an alternative option. And we're like,
what's going on here, and off you went behind a
tree and this happened. Okay, we're here at the park,
we're doing my photo shoot, and JOHNO has gone behind
a tree right by the playground and he is now
getting well he's already changed, pre changed into an adult diaper.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
I don't think we should have done this by the playground.
Speaker 5 (02:26):
Like he's like, he's gone on a tree, but it's
right with the playground, Like it's you're.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
Hiding from us, but now you're playing side of the kids.
To be fair, there's no there is kids.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
There's kids. Yeh oh god, it looks like a big baby.
Look at him.
Speaker 7 (02:40):
Oh my goodness, Oh my goodness. Wow, low point in
everyone's life. What she came over and just nothing but
an adult diaper.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
Adult diapers. Yeah, definitely going to show up on some
CCTV footage. Is a person of interest some point?
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Very white, Yeah, that's all we could say.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
So lights.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
Yeah, when you're outside and it's sunny and you look
at something white and it's so blinding that.
Speaker 5 (03:07):
It was you a week to write that song about
a blinding light blinding the first whoa wow, I was.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
I gonna write a hat song about that.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
It is yeah, very wintery, right white completion. But then
I was like, well, I know he's going to complain
about the doll that it doesn't look realistic enough so
to buy some insurance and making babies. It takes nine
months to create humans. So I was like, bang, we
come up with a solutions based type of guy.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
We'll put the photos up today.
Speaker 5 (03:34):
Maybe even if you have a big baby as well
at sub stage this morning and you could be winning
a pram mastroller from Edwards and Coves, Well, we'll tell
you how you can do that just after seven o'clock.
But next, it's a very it's a sad day at
the last day of news Hub the Aim Show, and
next we're going to reflect on some of our favorite
moments in three minutes.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
The HiT's the johonaan Ben podcast TEKS fourteen.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
On a Friday, we like to flash back on a
Friday and look back at something very iconic nostalgia, and
today it is a big day news Hub on TV three.
It's a very final Am show. It's a very final
bulletin news Hub today. The three News is going to
carry on on stuff and also on TV three but
it's kind of sad. Make McRoberts who joins us after
seven it's his very last bulletin.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
Yeah, rip, it's news Hub.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
And if you're said that's going well, then look at yourselves.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Look at yourselves.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
Consuming your news on your phone all day and not
waiting patiently until six o'clock to digest the topical stories.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
It's your fault. Okay, right, put the blattin on the
audience there.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
But it is it's a sign of the times, isn't it.
And it's said that so many people are losing their
jobs hundreds.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
Yeah, we're going to get, you know, the nostalgic with
Mike McRoberts after seven o'clock today when he joins us.
But we thought, right now, let's look at some of
the lighter moments from news Hub over the years, from
TV three news, the iconic three News and Mike McRoberts.
One of his well more iconic moments and we actually
we played it to him on our TV show was
a very low point. Hevery listen, Oh this might be
one of the most embarrassing moments of my life.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
The bank says it won't happen until the middle of
next year, at least while some first home boners are
locked out of it.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Buyers have locked out of the market home boners.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
I mean, he's had a pretty blemish free correct. He
said words, bloody correct a lot of words every night
for twenty years his boner.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
And we're like, oh, I don't know, just given the
current interest rates, I don't know what the opposite of
a home boner is.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Pretty much got that at the moment, not giving us
hard bonus?
Speaker 5 (05:31):
Is that another moment for Mike mc roberts that I
like to sign off from the news where he kind
of gave it a James bond Esk sign off.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Have listen, Well, that's today's news on three.
Speaker 6 (05:40):
I'm Hillary Barry, I'm mc roberts.

Speaker 9 (05:50):
Oh?
Speaker 10 (05:51):
No, Chucky, And there I think, try something new tonight
in Campbell's But oh, of course, the project at seven
PM said the end of At the end of last year,
one of our favorite moments was the wonderful Carno Alloyd
talking about a box of Cadbury chocolates that was coming
back with some new flavors, and unfortunately the comeback wasn't
(06:12):
quite what she said.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
After getting ditched back in twenty eighteen strawberry cream, orange
cream and peppermint cream and making a cumbox, a cumbox.

great job on seven sharp. She was in the morning
reading the news with Paul Henry.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
That's right, only he was doing the AM show, wasn't he?
And this was a wonderful This brings a smile to
your face. There was a court case going.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
On with the guy, quite a full on story.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
It was very seriously I think she saysn't there, this

terminology for him needing to come inside and use the
toilet he seated he had an emergency defication situation needed

found he had a sexual motive.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Emergency situation.

Speaker 12 (08:40):
Now, now I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:46):

Speaker 12 (08:52):
He was sick and the last operation the vets to
just keep him asleep and put him down, and we

Speaker 3 (09:23):
You didn't take the advice of the vet.
Speaker 8 (09:25):
Absolutely.
Speaker 12 (09:26):

lost my trust.
Speaker 4 (09:29):

Speaker 9 (09:39):

Well, and unless he hope he keeps on kicking for
another fourteen.
Speaker 12 (09:46):

Speaker 13 (10:40):
Good morning.
Speaker 12 (10:41):
Here we going.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
We're doing well.
Speaker 4 (10:42):
It's lovely to have you on this morning, on this
crisp morning. Now you're an exvet nurse, I am. Yeah, jeez, Peter,
you would have seen some money. What would they say,
see some money change change?
Speaker 13 (10:54):
Yeah, the puppy he was a lad probably about nineteen
weeks old at the time, and the couple, I don't
know what they were doing, they're a family. They had
the window down and the dog jumped out, well.
Speaker 11 (11:09):
The puffy jumped out of the window.
Speaker 13 (11:11):
They were tolling a boat trailer at the time, and.
Speaker 11 (11:13):
The boat trailer run him over.
Speaker 13 (11:16):
So he did come into us. But we were in
a specialist comic so specialist surgery, and they did two surgeries.
One didn't work because the pin they put in his
leg was far too big and then pushing on his
nerves and causing him a lot of pain. So he
had to have another surgery on top of it. And
each surgery was costed them nine thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Wow.
Speaker 13 (11:36):
So yeah, so they were already eighteen thousand. And that's
not including he was coming into follow ups. He was
coming in for X rays to see how everything was.
So yeah, so I think probably all I heard from
some colleagues of mine at the time that he his

Why's the North Island having the best weekend?

It's going to reevaluate myself, alight, let's going.
Speaker 8 (15:01):
So we have a Festival of Graytown, which actually had
fire which last week, but for the month of July. Greytown,
which is a gorgeous, quaint little historical town, comes to
life from midwinter Christmas. They've got snowfall outside of the
town hall. They've got night markets, Christmas lights everywhere. And
I was there last week, had a mulled wine before.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
That sounds light beautiful.
Speaker 8 (15:26):
It was wonderful. And the kids stand under the snowfall,
which is fake. I probably shouldn't have to say it's fake,
but it's fake.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
They've got real snow in christ, don't you kind of yes?
Speaker 3 (15:37):
Or ice coal?
Speaker 1 (15:38):
So coal.
Speaker 8 (15:42):
And then moving up north as well or down depending
on where you are on the island. Auckland has an
Alti square ice rink, So this is the rink that
starts just over a month. You can go. That's so nice.
You can go on ice skate and then they've also
got a cooling rings. You could train up with the
(16:03):
sport and potentially get to the Olympics.
Speaker 11 (16:05):
So what got an Olympic weekend?
Speaker 4 (16:07):
Yeah, what we're lacking in real snow in the north,
we're making up with artificial ice and snow.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Okay, Meghan, it's over to you.

Speaker 12 (16:55):
On your phone.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
She's ever done a voice memo in her life. She
sent me one secondsage, very unusual.
Speaker 2 (17:01):

Speaker 11 (17:27):
Oh really, hey.
Speaker 5 (17:28):
Now do you know anything about this? The messes that
came through from you? It's only what one or two
seconds long?
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Megan?
Speaker 3 (17:34):
It's one second?
Speaker 9 (17:36):
Oh yeah, Well, actually father's been our father. Father has
been interfering with my telecommunications equipment, and I think it's
probably come from him.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
So it's not a you era.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
Well, shall we play it down to E Ray Ray
and you can tell us what was going on here?

Speaker 2 (18:04):
Do I want to know what is it safe for
this time on the radio.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
No.
Speaker 9 (18:09):
He was cleaning out the wardrobe and I came across
Meghan's guitar and so I said to her, here, what
I'll do is I'll play you a few notes. And
then he said, and I didn't realize he was actually
he was actually filming me, and I went, oh, no, photo.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
It is concerning when your mother sends me a one
second message that just goes no o O ca't yet.
Speaker 9 (18:34):
No, No, it was nothing. It's as he's been playing
around with my telephone. You see, because I've been I've
been practicing on the guitar, and I've found my great
grandfather's fears hat and then i found something else and
I'm trying all this stuff on and unbeknown to me,
he's doing a silent filming.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
Ah.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
She did send me a big possum jacket and wondered
if I wanted that, and I said I'd be canceled
if I was wearing fur.
Speaker 9 (18:57):
I was a bit concerned because of the poss jacket
had the little possum face on it on the shoulder
and I got the two little teeth at the front
had gone all funny and and I'm sure you would
love it, but I can't find the possum.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
He's gone on radio. She says, no. But after she's
out that, now you definitely want it, Megan, of.
Speaker 4 (19:19):
You have still got the face on the shoulder the
left faces on them.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
One of those saying the example used to hit one.
Speaker 9 (19:27):
Yeah, yeah, like that. I could say, I'll bring it
up for the boy.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
I'll tell you I'll take it, John, I can have
a Maclamore moment.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 16 (19:38):
Ok.
Speaker 4 (19:40):
And now you're doing the very, the very parents thing.
My parents do the same whenever they come to visit.
Because you coming to visit, Megan, you clear out all
of our old stuff and then burden us with that.
Jenny Boyce does the same to Ben.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Yeah she does.
Speaker 9 (19:53):
Yeah, I know what will happen. I'll bring it up
and when I've gone, I'll throw it in the bin.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Well that's why I said I didn't want any of it.
I said, I will just put it out and so
get rid of it.
Speaker 5 (20:01):
And your mom said, oh no, you can't do that,
and put it back in her car and took her
back home.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
So I was like, oh, well, she's on.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
Her she's found certificates of me taking an English test.
I don't think I only got credit.
Speaker 9 (20:12):
Like throw it out in the wool and yeah no, no,
don't do singing either.
Speaker 4 (20:20):
This is a classic parent conversation too, when the other
parent joins in as well, my mom and dare do
that too.
Speaker 9 (20:26):
Yeah, he's just coming and is interfering as my conversation.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
Yeah, it's your moment.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
Does and he does that to John and he's like,
it's mine on the phone and she's talking in the background.

Yeah, I got so I was sixteen, and it was
fright here in my arm. It said, uh, it was
a cross with my last name in one banner of
my real last name, Dimsdell and then established nineteen ninety two.
So yeah, I mean by the time I was eighteen,
I was like a completely different person, you know. And
so I I always tell people, don't let sixteen year
old get tattoos. You know, they're just they're just different
people by the time they're eighteen, you know, kids, it's
(24:00):
just too early to make a long life decision like that,
so that I've got to take tattoo advice from.
Speaker 4 (24:05):
I see you got someone on your eye lids. Yeah,
it's sure are Oh my gosh, hell is that?
Speaker 17 (24:11):
It's kind of like it doesn't hurt as bad as
you think, but it's just as a wild sensation.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
You know.
Speaker 17 (24:15):
The needles so small, so you kind of feel your
eyeball bouncing like with the needle.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 17 (24:20):
It kind of like irritates it. You cry a little
bit underneath it.
Speaker 3 (24:23):
It doesn't hurt.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
It's just weird, you.
Speaker 5 (24:24):

use it for wedding songs and you know moments like that,
have you got your hit around?

always be a part of that beautiful moment thirty years
from now.
Speaker 4 (24:56):

moment of your of your career too. But someone locking

aisle cracking up, laughing. I couldn't work out why how
could he not hear I think nerves maybe, Oh yeah, he.

to you a couple of times over zoom but it's
nice to actually see it.
Speaker 2 (35:28):
Oh yeah, I know.
Speaker 6 (35:29):
I love coming to different countries that are not my own.
Speaker 4 (35:32):
One thing that makes us very happy is that the
weather's okay, cold, but we know you liket the snow,
but it's nice and clear skuys.
Speaker 6 (35:38):
Yes, we went yesterday to Wahiki. We went to a
winery and we sat outside for four hours. They gave
me a blanket and we just looked at this. And
obviously we were drinking because we were out of winery,
which is another thing I never really do. I never
drink wine, so but I know if I'm in New Zealand,
you know you have to try the wine. So yeah,
it's nice to spend time here. I have like two
days of free time.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
Do you give them?
Speaker 2 (35:59):
Mind you and you'll roll in.
Speaker 6 (36:01):
My role as a person, I got a nice balance
of free time and work time. I like to hit
it hard so that I can vacation hard.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
Because last time you were here, you were put the
call out. You put a video out looking for a lover.
Speaker 4 (36:17):
A lover.
Speaker 6 (36:17):
I think I found one last time I was here. Yeah,
hopefully I don't see I don't run into him again.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
I was with a love a lot there has he
got your number? Or you're like, no, we speak of this.
Speaker 6 (36:26):
I mean, I just, yeah, I think everyone has my number.
I think it's pretty public because I got a lot
of incoming calls. I've stopped answering my phone because I
don't want to change my number. Yeah, I don't think
it's hard to get my number. If you're trying to
contact me, I think you could find it online probably.
I mean, I'm not encouraging that. And by the way,
like I said, I don't, I don't answer it. I
was almost cursed, and then I caught myself because I
(36:48):
know we're on radio, so you're welcome.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
I would thank you someone like you would have multiple
phones on the go.
Speaker 6 (36:54):
No, I'm pretty basic.
Speaker 3 (36:55):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (36:56):
I don't have time for that. I'm not really, you know,
very good with technology. So I just, you know, if
I can answer the phone at all, that's going to
be a bonus.
Speaker 3 (37:03):
What kind of so you've answered the phone to a
couple of whidos, Like, what kind of things do they say?
Speaker 12 (37:07):
You want?
Speaker 4 (37:07):
Money?
Speaker 3 (37:08):
Is usually people?
Speaker 6 (37:09):
Yeah, people are always If you look through my DMS,
it's like, you know, my dog has some disease and
you're you're my last hope, and you want to help
these people. And in the beginning of my career, I
would I would give money to stranger and then someone
tried to assue me for giving them money. So I
was I was advised by my business managers. Never, yes,
(37:32):
I gave somebody money to get their teeth fixed, because
I made a joke about people who don't have teeth
in the South. And there was a Southern woman and
she said, you know, not everybody can afford teeth, and
I was.
Speaker 4 (37:42):
Like, well, I'll buy you teeth.
Speaker 6 (37:42):
Okay, you're right, not everybody can afford And so it
was like ten or fifteen thousand dollars to get this
woman a full set of teeth, and then she didn't
like them and wanted another set of teeth.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
Oh God.
Speaker 6 (37:52):
And then my lawyers are like, please stop responding to people.
You can't buy people teeth. I was like, message received
and clear.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
I love the goal of it too. They don't suit
my mouth.
Speaker 6 (38:03):
I was like, yeah, exactly. She was like I got
her tea. It's like she wanted to return the teeth,
So I mean, you really can't.
Speaker 3 (38:10):
You can't.
Speaker 6 (38:11):
You can't try before you buy no, no, Now, I
just don't open my DMS. It's like, because you do
feel sympathy for people, you want to help people, but
you can't help everybody, and who knows what these people
are up to?
Speaker 4 (38:22):
So Bet, I think that's why people are drawn to you,
because you're such a genuine person. And I feel like
what you see is what you get with you. And
there's at one moment that I'd love to love to
play with you. It's one of my favorite moments that you.
Speaker 2 (38:33):
And Piers Morgan.
Speaker 4 (38:35):
So Piers Morgan's interviewing you and then jouring the air break,
he's on his phone or something.
Speaker 6 (38:40):
I mean, you can't even pay attention for sixty seconds.
You're a terrible interviewer.
Speaker 2 (38:44):
Well, you just weren't keeping my attention.
Speaker 6 (38:46):
That's my problem, your problem.
Speaker 3 (38:48):

invaded on your show. Interesting enough, Yeah, they listen. It
doesn't matter how interesting I am. You signed up for
this show. That's why the job is coming to it. Yeah,
he's terrible. He's he's the worst interviewer.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Of all time. Well, I wanted to know what was
he looking at on his phone?
Speaker 6 (39:06):

that's so funny that I said that. I must have
been really tired that day and had no you know,
I can't curse, but you know, know what's left in me.
Speaker 3 (39:26):
But more than that, it's like you up against a
bully and in that situation, most of the time we
know what we want to say, but nothing comes out eloquently.
You were so calm and you're just like calling him out.
Speaker 13 (39:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (39:38):
Yeah, it was an out of body experience because at
some point is it awkward afterwards? Oh yeah yeah, I
mean yeah he hates me. I mean I welcome that,
but yeah, after the interview, he's like, wow, you really
did it. I'm like, you're you know, I kept going.
