Speaker 1 (00:00):
Coast Breakfast brought to you by Bargain Chemist Their Policy
New Zealand's cheapest chemist.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Tony Jason Sam's feel Good Breakfast Can't Sharp podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Today on the show, we talked about being forty now
and back in the eighties and who had it better
and could we.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
Pass an NCEEA exam? Today we try a hand at geography.
Speaker 4 (00:20):
And the average person is doing this round eighty five
times a day if they're under forty. When you include
the over forties, found about seventy two times a day.
That's a lot. Though, what is it.
Speaker 5 (00:36):
Racing? This time?
Speaker 4 (00:37):
Battle will be the last.
Speaker 6 (00:41):
We stand?
Speaker 4 (00:41):
Is the one we have told you back was pretty
much the last horse? But that's okay? Was it Bazookah? No,
it's not okay.
Speaker 7 (00:47):
Forducy Buckero?
Speaker 1 (00:49):
But our best horse got fourth. But Night's Choice two
six ninety nine if anyone actually backs that outside chance?
Because what a payday?
Speaker 4 (00:58):
What was the payday? It was a sixteen buda I
think it was. I know, I know that cool.
Speaker 7 (01:06):
Story is coming out of the cup though.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
So Night's Choice is trained by a Kiwi who last
trained Lexon and she trained Ehel But the jockey, how
cool is the jockey. The jockey was on the Voice
Australia and I mean, I don't want to like type
cast jockeys.
Speaker 7 (01:23):
But generally they will have quite squeaky voices. This guy
listen to.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
Him, you go right.
Speaker 6 (01:36):
Up.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
Robbie Dolan's singing.
Speaker 7 (01:40):
How good is he? So I think.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Australia is going off because they're like, oh, this guy
can sing. And they profiled him before the race, and
now he's come through his first winner.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
And the chance of winning was pretty slim as well.
And there's the thing about the Melbourne Cup. You get
you get tips every year, don't you and they never come.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
I don't want to I don't want to cast dispersions
because I'm in no way an expert. But the jockey
on Buccaroo had a shocker. He was sitting seeking to
last and he's just never made his move. I was like,
when's he gonna go? He's the favorite, come on?
Speaker 3 (02:09):
Didn't we hear that he'd actually run a race a
few days earlier.
Speaker 7 (02:17):
Different horse leading with about five meters to go, and.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
See King was the other one. We got told back
and he was down with butter on the back. Sorry
we went on the back.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
Do you know The only tips so that's ever won
me any money was the TVZ journalist.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Wonderful man? Was it?
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Steven Stephen Stewart Stephens such a good tips to the
best tips of them all. He's been competing on the
sport for years and do you know what? So I
worked alongside him on sport for about eight years and
I'd be doing my story, like come back from filming
and I hear this, Yes.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Can I just stop.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
I don't know too much about horse racing at all,
but I think I don't know what it's called you
get the first four horses or something. If you had
the first four horses, I saw that. Yeah, that was
paying something like seven hundred and something thousand dollars. Outrageous,
that's how That's how massive those odds were, those horses
that came in first. And if you put a dollar down,
I think it was yeah, because.
Speaker 7 (03:10):
For a dollar you can times it by she.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
Put one hundred bucks a pickle four your way.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Sure, can we just quickly talk about the other part
of the Melbourne Cup then we all love a couple
of highlights. Paris Hilton, I thought looked amazing. She starred
over at the Melbourne carp and yellow. So I'm telling
you yellow oranges citruses are the color for the summer.
And I just so happened to have purchased a yellow
dress es today for Cup Day next week.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
I took my rice on the color.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Don't think I'm going to look like Paris Hilt Nicky Hilton,
it was her sister.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Yeah, yeah, because we were owing. Weren't we stready on
the color as your dress? Yesterday?
Speaker 4 (03:46):
You said, what about the blue?
Speaker 3 (03:47):
I see no street the yellows and joke, don't think
you with it?
Speaker 4 (03:52):
What was the designer's name again?
Speaker 7 (03:53):
Cave and Crisp. Yeah, thanks Sam, No worries like you.
Speaker 4 (03:57):
I've got you. You get there over. There's a horse name.
There's a horse name you're never gonna forget. The horse
name was Are and the horse won the race. Heavels
of this top of the stretch coming into the final
for long now, Crafty CJ with an air lead, continues
to fight on on the outside.
Speaker 8 (04:14):
They're coming down to the finish and it's a little
wise guy was second and that's.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
What you want. You look great? Do you live in
the yellow dress?
Speaker 6 (04:27):
Are you?
Speaker 8 (04:27):
Well?
Speaker 7 (04:28):
It's actually caused the pirates.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
Can you feel it. It's the Jackson's on Coach I
Feel Good Breakfast with Tony Chase, the Sam of course
theme song for the Breakers. Top of the nbal table
table at the moment, aren't.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
They Yeah, I got a couple of players scoring into
the thirties. It's really encouraging to see it.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
If you've ever been to the Breakers and it starts
with dun dun a starts cl Yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
It's the halftime song. Isn't it funny that it's actually
World Basketball Day today honor of the game that was
invented in eighteen ninety one by a Canadian guy called
James Naismith. This is basically muckey out a WAYMCA, but
are passing the time bouncing a ball around and it
became the game.
Speaker 7 (05:03):
I love basketball was a little brilliant game.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Yeah, good spig tatus for a that's lots of fun
for a lot of people. Remember the school yard exams
are at the moment they started yesterday. A lot of
families are dealing with exams streets in the house this week.
So how would we go if we had to sit
an exam? So I looked through the timetable, right and
geography is up for this year's This year's the Year
(05:27):
eleven team, so basically what we used to call FI form.
Speaker 5 (05:28):
Okay, say, year eleven.
Speaker 7 (05:30):
Did you do geography in for form at school?
Speaker 5 (05:32):
Yes? Same.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
I'm in a rabbit hole over.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
I just google my old teacher's magnificent for geography, mister
Don Johnson Sandy Passway in twenty twenty three. But he
put me in good Stead good Man Linton comedy, which
is why I love the subject.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
You know, he's one of those sages.
Speaker 7 (05:45):
Everyone has the story right.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
When I think of my geography, I remember for form
GEO and you know when you had there was like
a topography section of the exam, Yes, and you had
to pinpoint on a map exactly where something was. And
I remember in New Plymouth ours was we had to
point where Mount Tananaki was and I did it exactly
how we were taught, and I got it wrong.
Speaker 7 (06:05):
And I'm like, how can I get it wrong? Teacher?
This is where you told me to put it. And
they're like, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
In terms of its topography map, you know the ones
with the lines and the altitude. Yes, I don't think
there's anything more obvious than Mount Tananaki.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Get real close.
Speaker 7 (06:23):
In the middle.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
You were an amazing teacher, mister Allison at Kademy High
School is great man. Anyway, again, the teachers of the
reason you take some of these subjects, right, we don't
take subjects?
Speaker 7 (06:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (06:33):
True? How do we go?
Speaker 7 (06:34):
So?
Speaker 4 (06:34):
I looked at last year's year eleven geography exam and
basically the whole thing was about COVID nineteen and the
impact it had on the Cook Island's economy. And so
I thought that's it was basically a whole bunch of
give us a topography.
Speaker 7 (06:45):
That's a bit weird.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
How it affected the economy, Isn't it like accounting or economics.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
How they're faced important challenges looking forward to the future. Anyway,
So that was a big So I went further back
through the years and I we're way way back. This
is the late nineties, you know, all right, So you're
ready for this. What country the most natural lakes in
the world?
Speaker 7 (07:02):
Canada?
Speaker 4 (07:03):
No, it's America. It's Canada. Canada passing so far, so fast,
so good. Okay. Suppose the temperature at a place by
the sea is twenty degrees celsius at these ones, what
the temperatureuld be at the same place, but one thousand
meters above sea level it drops the formula.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
So formula it drops one degree for every one hundred
feet I think it is.
Speaker 7 (07:25):
That wasn't part of my syllabus on thousands.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
So I'm going to go with a thousand. I'm going
to go with seventeen degrees. Shose we're not being thirteen
point five degrees at all. But you knew the formula.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
There's a formula between two layers of clothing and.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Four I now have.
Speaker 7 (07:41):
It's working working.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
I have no idea, all right, last one of the
pilots would know that they know the drop, all right,
So I'll this one multi choice?
Speaker 4 (07:52):
Okay, all right? Why do underground rivers commonly form in
limestone regions like Northland white out or Hawks Bay Wide
it up and Nelson care in Southland? Here your options?
Why do underground rivers commonly form in limestone? M choice?
Speaker 3 (08:05):
I don't need multi choice, mate, It's because the limestone
breaks down because he is sitting in the water.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
That is option B, and it's been.
Speaker 7 (08:14):
Chosen bick degrees.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
Why not anyway? Hey, if you are dealing with exam
stress in your household, very best of love, who's going
to win this one? Though? Even talking to Jack Tame
and Washington yesterday he said, I don't don't know flip
a coin.
Speaker 7 (08:31):
I hate it when they say flipper the cooin.
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Yeah, well it is that tired.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
I've done a little bit of research in terms of
who the main outlets and who they think is going
to win the election. So the economist, who is effectively
a stats company, they have Carmela, so it's going to
be the first to reach two hundred and seventy. They
have her two seventy six and Trump at two sixty two.
Now the two biggest election prognosticators.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
Isn't that a great Yeah?
Speaker 3 (08:58):
I'm almanek Ellen ellen Lychman, us professor correctly predicted the
last nine elections has Carmela. The other side of that
equation in terms of prognostigators are Nate Silver is also
heavily respected, and he thinks President Trump will prevail. The
fact that they are opposing shows how tight this one.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
They already said this will be undoubtedly the closest election
of all time.
Speaker 9 (09:22):
Of all time, the most accurate economist, Christopher Broad has
Donald Trump winning it, and the betting odds I have
since narrowed, but they have Trump winning fifty nine percent
to Kamla's forty one.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
So fuck, it's really no, it's really interesting. There's so
many different sort of things going on in this one.
You will have noticed, just like we noticed with Hillary Clinton,
in the last few days, a whole lot of singers
and stars have come out in force to support Kamala Harris.
Did you see yesterday Ricky Martin, wonderful man, I've met him.
If he's supporting Kamala Harris, she must be good because
(09:56):
he is one of life's treasures. I saw he was playing.
You've had Beyonce, You've had Lizzo.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
The big one for.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Donald Trump coming out, you said it was Joe Rogan,
who obviously the podcast so.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Who commands a massive audience.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
He came out of support based on what Elon Musk
said about Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Interesting that Joe Rogan supporting Donald Trump after he gave
him that treadmill. Yet rant that Sam shed that's this morning.
She talks about how wonderful is it?
Speaker 6 (10:23):
Run?
Speaker 4 (10:24):
Am so good on a treadmill.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
They would like step and make it steeper and I
got to stay on it all dad.
Speaker 7 (10:30):
Do you know another interesting thing?
Speaker 1 (10:32):
That I reckon, and Jack Tame told us this that
women are coming out and forced to vote for Kamala Harris.
The difference between her run for the presidency and Hillary
Clinton's is she has not been waiving that I'm a
female flag. She's obviously seeing that as a negative. So
she is absolutely not saying that at all, even though
let's not forget if she becomes a president, she'll be
(10:54):
the first woman ever.
Speaker 7 (10:56):
That's exactly. So.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
I think that some of the polling boos are starting
to close right about now by the looks of things,
and we're going to get some more results throughout the day.
So I think from about midday onwards we'll start getting
results starting tripping through. We won't know for a couple
of days. Though.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
They reckon no, I would love to put Donald Trump
on a treadment and just prove that very wrong. I
started at like an eight incline at speed five, just
so I'd.
Speaker 7 (11:17):
Love to put them on speed twenty and see.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
No way. And there's a group called the Alternative Commentary Collective.
They'd be loved and complained about because of the way
they commentate sports matches, but they're so popular they now
put a book out detailing the triumphs and utter disaster
as they've been involved in. We're about to chat with
the main man, Mike Laying about this because on day
one of the ACC you guys put this together, and
(11:42):
on day one you were booted out of a really
famous sporting venue, Mike.
Speaker 5 (11:45):
Out of a famous sporting event. Yeah.
Speaker 10 (11:47):
No, we're the only commentary team to ever be thrown
out of a World Cup.
Speaker 5 (11:53):
Thank you.
Speaker 7 (11:53):
You hindered your ways with the organizers had.
Speaker 5 (11:56):
I don't know, actually I don't know.
Speaker 10 (11:58):
It was the twenty fifteen Cricket World Cup here in
New Zealand. The ICC they kind of I don't know.
I don't think they knew what they were getting themselves
in for when they let us in the grounds. But
it didn't last long because they immediately threw us out
and it was greatually pretty good for us because at
the time we were gutted because the only reason we
really started the Alternative Commentary Collective was so we could
get together as mates, drink beers and comment tate cricket and.
Speaker 5 (12:21):
Be paid for it, and so that's how it started.
Speaker 10 (12:23):
So to be thrown out of the grounds was a
bit of a d shrinker for us because we were like, oh,
we're not going to beat the ground anymore.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
That's kind of a key, a key element of why
we started this.
Speaker 10 (12:31):
And then it was the best thing that ever happened
to us because it went global, I mean because it
was a great headline commentary team thrown out of World Cup, yes,
and people were like, what the hell is this?
Speaker 1 (12:40):
And now you're basically a professional outfit and it's just
morphed into all these other sports.
Speaker 4 (12:44):
Yeah, it's good.
Speaker 5 (12:45):
I mean, it's I'm waiting for it to blow up
eventually one day.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
Ten years thoughts, So hell.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Of a story, Like, you know, it's all fun and games,
but it's surprisingly cognitive.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
I genuinely like it.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
And now you've managed to put it together, the whole
story into an elmina, which I didn't even know what
it was.
Speaker 5 (13:01):
You know what alm makers.
Speaker 4 (13:04):
It's a collection.
Speaker 10 (13:04):
It's like a history book really ten years Almanac of
New Zealand sport because we're it's our tenth birthday this year,
so we kind of like it's not a it's not.
Speaker 5 (13:12):
A serious books. It's very much lighthearted.
Speaker 10 (13:15):
We gathered that you can there is elements of truth
in there and there is elements of untruth in there.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
So how did you get the time? So it's you,
Matt Heath and Dylan Cleaver have put it together.
Speaker 7 (13:24):
When did you guys do this?
Speaker 4 (13:26):
It's been about six months probably.
Speaker 10 (13:28):
All the oral histories are very funny in here, and
they kind of made me smile because basically we interviewed
everyone on the acc of what their view of different stories,
and they're wildly different. For example, Leehart's recollection of that
twenty fifteen World Cup is wildly different to Matt Heath,
which is wildly different to Jason Hoyt who can't remember anything.
Speaker 7 (13:47):
You were all different amounts of beer.
Speaker 10 (13:49):
Deep absolutely, and so this it's a great it's a
great way of looking at the stories and they're completely
wildly different. There's it's all all sport over the last
ten years, so a couple of World Cups near the
Olympics is Commonwealth Games. Our worst crimes are in here.
It's a fun book. It's a very picture picture heavy too,
which is always you enjoyed that, Sam.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Christmas, I appreciate that because I mean, at the end
of the day, what you're good to ask people to
do that are going to buy this bock is to
put down their beer and their cricket cricket bat and
pick up a book that's not that's that's a big
ass yes.
Speaker 10 (14:23):
And you know what it's. You can pick it up
at any page and just read. Hey, look, I'll sign one.
You can give it away if you want.
Speaker 7 (14:28):
Please six ninety nine. If you'd like this coffee of the.
Speaker 5 (14:31):
Almanac and I'll draw a willy on it.
Speaker 8 (14:33):
Please.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Class Coasts, Feel Good Breakfast catch up podcast with Tony Street,
Jason Reeves and Sam Wallace.
Speaker 4 (14:44):
It's that time of the year, right, skins are pointing
into the year. Exams are on across the country today.
We know that Christmas is looming across us. Of course
we know that as well, but it's also wedding season
as well. And if you've done the whole wedding thing
and maybe at the stage in your life where your
own kids are getting married, or you know friends of
yours inviting them to the you to their kids weddings,
what's the etiquet when it comes to gifts.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Oh, it's really awkward because I feel like in New Zealand,
I think primarily you get a wedding gift, whether that
is a present or whether it is a wishing well donation.
Right where it starts to get a little bit murky
is bridesmaids that are paying for things like their address,
potentially their shoes. People pay a lot of money to
go to a hens do or bridle shower. Right, So
(15:28):
I've organized quite a few hens dos in my time,
and generally you're charging one hundred and fifty bucks ahead, right,
and then do you get a gift on top of that?
We never did for hens dos. But when you see
say bridal shower, Jase, that's slightly class here, and then
I think there's potentially engagement parties on top of that.
Speaker 4 (15:47):
It's a good point.
Speaker 7 (15:47):
Yeah, a lot of gifts.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
So a bridal party, sorry, a bridal shower is a
few months to a few weeks before the wedding.
Speaker 7 (15:53):
So it's a classy version of a.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
Hen class it is. I think it's the one of
the mum's throw I.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Think I just don't think that happens much in New Zealand.
I think New Zealand women predominantly have hisins dos. And
you definitely don't get prisons for hents.
Speaker 7 (16:04):
You just pay to go.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
You paid, okay, so then you pay to go to
the hens Do, then you go to the wedding as well.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
So let's say you pay one hundred and fifty bucks
to go to the hens Do, then you buy a
prison and saying that when you pay to go to
the hins Do, you're paying for a night out, you're
getting dinner.
Speaker 4 (16:20):
Yeah, but it's so.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
A massive commitment, like you know, his party, bridle shower,
then you've got if you're part of the wedding party,
you got shoes, dress, and then if it's a location
wedding accommodation as well.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Generally the bride and groom will pay for the dress
though well, and the weddings I've been to quite often
the bridesmaids will pay for these shoes.
Speaker 4 (16:37):
Maybe I sometimes the bridesmaids are buying their own dresses
and then suddenly you've got that on top of that
as well. So then when it comes to there, if
you've done all that, let's say, for example, you're a bridesmaid,
you've bought a dress or maybe your shoes, and you've
gone to the Hens night. Now you go to the
wedding as well.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
You know what if your bridesmaids several times over if
you're super popular goal, and you keep getting asked.
Speaker 4 (16:58):
You'd have been a bridesmaid a few times? When you're streating.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
I'm trying to Just as they said that, I was like,
how many times have I been to bride's maid? I
think I'm like maybe like six or seven?
Speaker 4 (17:07):
Is that right? I think I'm two. I'm not going.
Speaker 7 (17:09):
Sister had to have me obligatory.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
Yeah, So what are your thoughts on that? What are
the rules? What do you think that is the goal?
When it comes to the gifts for this sort of stuff.
If you're go into the bridal shower or a hen's
night and then maybe you know you have hit to
buy the dress or the shoes as well, and you
go to the wedding too, what's the thing on the gifts?
Speaker 7 (17:26):
Come on, I just remembered I was also a glues woman.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
No brides man. I'm a woman. What were flicker takes?
The two six nine nine? I do feel for you
if you're sitting exams or if you if someone in
your family is sitting exams this week in a couple
of weeks, parents and grandparents dealing with that streets in
the households?
Speaker 6 (17:48):
What is it?
Speaker 4 (17:48):
Geography for year eleven today.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
No, especially especially if you're at Canterbury University and you've
got this quirtz.
Speaker 7 (17:54):
Yeah they reckon it was shredded chicken.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
But did you see all the boys on the news
are all like, yeah, you know, I hope we get
compassionate consideration.
Speaker 7 (18:03):
I'm like, is this a big plot?
Speaker 4 (18:06):
Apparently it was so bad that not there win't enough
toilets to go.
Speaker 7 (18:09):
Around queues at four am for the bathroom.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
And scary people need to go out and someone described
it as fountains.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
That's hostile living in its best, isn't it when you're
queuing with the squirts.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
So we're getting into summer season, of course, wedding season
for a lot of people as well, a lot of
families dealing with that this coming year too, and so
therefore we ask the question, okay, if you get invited
to stay like the Hen's Night and nowadays a lot
of people doing the bridal showers too and the wedding, well,
how many gifts you have to give it that sort
of stage there and on the text on two six
nine nine, A few different answers on this one. One
one gift is all you need. Another one is saying
(18:45):
small gift for the bride, for the bridal party, and
then money for the couple. That's what some people are saying. Wow,
it's a lot, isn't it. It adds up so quickly,
it does, say Georgina, is it just us where we
just tied on this maybe the one gift? What are
your thoughts?
Speaker 8 (18:59):
No, we did, absolutely, it's a gift for the bride.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
No, we.
Speaker 6 (19:09):
Gave it all our girl friends together. Everybody contributed to
the weekend and it was more about spending quality time
together with a bride to be for.
Speaker 7 (19:23):
Your big day, So no guests required at all. I agree.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
That's exactly what I have done with all the weddings
I've been to. Yes, you contribute to the Hen's weekend
or the hens party, but you're sort of all in
for that, and you'd have to pay for dinner anyway.
Speaker 7 (19:36):
I don't think a bride expects.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Again, I feel right, you know, like, at the end
of the day, you don't really remember the guests. All
you want is people's participation to celebrate with you. And
I think the onus of all that responsibility of the
gift is kind of it's more worn on the person
that's buying the gift.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
You know, you don't really feel like you need to do.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
No, they don't do you know what I just thought then,
just hearing that comment, why do we not? But like
we with birthday parties, why don't why do we not
pull money to make a cool gift?
Speaker 6 (20:04):
Like?
Speaker 7 (20:04):
Why does that interesting?
Speaker 4 (20:05):
You say that because somebody see them on the tap.
Everyone just jumping and pull and gets them something really
nice together, you.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Know, and then everyone sort of spends the same amount
and many hands make a great gift and one person
just has to take charge.
Speaker 4 (20:16):
It's that the continered blender or something like that.
Speaker 7 (20:18):
Something amazing when you look at the gifts.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
So it is the stuff that sits at the top
and the back of the cupboard, the.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
Cocktail glasses you've never used.
Speaker 8 (20:28):
Hello, it's getting out of control to me recently, I
went to last week in and travel around. It was
nearly four hundred dollars where you all brewist up. We
had to get costumes and features, and then there's a
(20:51):
present and the wedding to come. Yeah, I just think
it's getting out of control. What people are expect to
play and then here you count that, you know.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Right, horn on this because I love reasons to celebrate.
But I don't think it necessarily has to be whoppingly
expensive either.
Speaker 4 (21:13):
I agree with you. And a great text. Well this
creting a plate. That's all you need. Creating a plate.
Speaker 7 (21:18):
It's like a class.
Speaker 4 (21:21):
It sounds like that's a good time.
Speaker 7 (21:23):
What five CANape? Sam?
Speaker 2 (21:25):
Hey?
Speaker 3 (21:26):
No, no, I aimed at three canapees and you told
me to.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
Up the men you mate?
Speaker 7 (21:30):
Now, aren't you glad you did?
Speaker 5 (21:31):
Well?
Speaker 3 (21:31):
You look me in the eye every time you ate
one and said and whispered to me six, Thanks so
much taking part of it.
Speaker 4 (21:46):
Well, it's Wednesdays all we tell you. With the lovely
Nicky read from Milford Asset Management to find out more
about when it comes to sitting up for life's ages
and stages. So nick you see to answer a couple
of questions, but remember this is only information to help
you understand more and it's not financial advice. So Nikki,
you need to make a mental shift as we move
through the age? Is don't we like? So we're different
beasts when we're twenties and then into our thirties. It's
(22:07):
a whole different ball game.
Speaker 11 (22:08):
To a it is, you know, it's more foundational. You
should be bedded into your finances at this point in
your life. You know, you're not a new grad. You
know a lot of people are saving for their first time.
Some even have their first time in their thirties.
Speaker 9 (22:23):
You know.
Speaker 11 (22:24):
For me, you know, the number one thing in my
experience has been as you start to progress your career
and you earn a bit more and you're settling into adulthood,
don't don't adjust your lifestyle based on earning more. Avoid
that lifestyle creep if you, if you can at all,
because I'm.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
Sure that's impossible. I mean, then you start to throw
kids into it as well.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
So wedding, yes, yeah, weddings, engagement rings, children, How do you?
Speaker 4 (22:53):
How do you prevent that creep?
Speaker 11 (22:54):
Like I think, if you, it's about that financial discipline,
about budget. For me, when I got a new job
or a pay rise, I would treat myself to a
nice pair of shoes. That was my thing, and then
the rest I'd increase my kevsaver contributions or save more.
Speaker 7 (23:11):
I am a bit of one.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
Why would you do that?
Speaker 5 (23:13):
Good?
Speaker 3 (23:13):
And why would you go to a fund that you
can only access later in life, especially when you're young
in your thirties and you kind of you've got more
financial steps to take. Why wouldn't you set up another
fund outside of the kiwisaver so that you can have
access to that within Milford asset.
Speaker 11 (23:27):
Yeah, you can absolutely do that too. Look, I don't
care how people do it, but what you see is
as you earn more, you tend to spend a bit more.
You feel a bit more flush. And in your thirties
you've got lots of big goals as you say, you've
got weddings and kids, potentially buying your first home.
Speaker 4 (23:43):
Things.
Speaker 11 (23:44):
It's an expensive decade. So setting yourself up to not
thresh away the extra money that you've got if you can,
it's a really good step to save more, just as
you would when your mortgage interest rates come down, try
not to spend the extra money you've now got in
your pocket.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
Have those habits bettered in Yeah? Yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
And also with that change as well with the kids,
I mean, that's another chance to start looking to invest
in creating funds for them, which is another expense for you,
but it kind of something you can't overlook with the
way house prices are going and education.
Speaker 11 (24:14):
Yep, that's right, and and also gives the mess they
get older, something to look too to understand financial markets
and the value of saving and investing.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
Or you turn your kid into a trust fun baby
because you've done well your Milford asset's taken off. Kids
sitting there with turn and fifty can about turning into
a spoil lit all.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
You can't let them know about it. Things are going well.

the Sam's not the expert here, but your Milford advisors

(24:55):
eight million dollars lotter and I had four makes me
want to.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Give a ticket after the lost This is incurred at
the Melbourne Cup yesterday.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
I had a double loss yesterday because it also burned
a fair bit of cash on fireworks as well.
Speaker 4 (25:06):
Oh no, that was in the whole yesterday.
Speaker 7 (25:08):
Oh you're not supposed to admit you do fireworks.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
Say that anymore, you'll get lashed. It was enjoyable to say.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
We need to talk about turning forty or the age
around forty, because I found this really good article that
kind of looked at the differences between being a forty
year old today in twenty twenty four versus perhaps being
forty back in the eighties or nineties, and how much
it's changed.
Speaker 7 (25:32):
So this kind of sums it up a wee bit.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Forty is supposedly the new thirty. The start of middle
age no longer means sending your kids off to college,
getting a divorce, or buying yourself a new car a corvette.
The modern forty means having toddlers running around, buying your
first home, and at last catching up on retirement savings,
or looking around and wondering whether some.
Speaker 7 (25:54):
Of these life touch points passed you by. And I
think it's a good time to reflect on.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
How different it is to be forty now than perhaps
what your parents or your grandparents were like.
Speaker 4 (26:05):
Remember my dad's fortieth I was at my dad's fortieth,
I was a teenager.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
I was a teenager nearly getting ready to go to university.
In my fortieth last year, my eldest was eleven, My
youngest was five.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
Well, we three years ago, my fortieth, and I just
had the twins, didn't I.
Speaker 7 (26:25):
You had you didn't have told us you had babies.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
I had two new babies. Went on my fortieth birthday
at our house. It was it was a lot.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
I turned forty in May and our youngest was born
in October the year before, so he was only about
seven months old, and that was my fortieth. Wow. I know, crazy.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
It is crazy because I think about having a child
now and I think, oh gosh.
Speaker 7 (26:45):
But I think it's because I've done twelve years of parents,
you know what I mean. And I'm like, oh, no,
so kids wise, what do we think.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
Is it better to be forty back in the eighties
nineties or now?
Speaker 4 (26:57):
Well you're allowed to like fireworks? Back then it was cool. Yeah.
I think probably our parents did it better. I think
I think.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
They probably did too, because if they were forty then
they were kind of through most of the hard parents
and phases.
Speaker 4 (27:09):
I'm looking at my parents now, they're in their sixties
and they're still young and sprightly, and the way they
hang out with the grandkids and play with the grand
kids and us is great.
Speaker 7 (27:15):
I'm looking at the money ketogran.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
I'm thinking they definitely did it well. I don't know,
but I'm pretty sure at the same age as me,
my parents didn't have such a big mortgage.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
Yeah, that's a good point.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Yeah, they were through that phase. They got through phases quicker.
Speaker 4 (27:30):
They also lived a.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
Life of less luxury though you know, we do money
on kind of frivolous things.
Speaker 7 (27:35):
Yeah, but is that not a win for them? They
lived the simple life.
Speaker 4 (27:38):
The simple life. We're going back to them now, people
growing their own beeries and having a lot more homemade meals.
Speaker 7 (27:43):
Do you know iPhones to buy?
Speaker 4 (27:44):
No, that's right.
Speaker 7 (27:46):
What about health? I think we're winning the health game.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
I think at forty all three of us are probably
healthier than what our parents were at forty.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
A better knowledge, bit of exercises.
Speaker 7 (27:56):
I'm definitely fitter. I reckon maybe not that my dad.
Speaker 4 (27:59):
My dad was. I think he'still running marathons and referring rugby.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
Game, but he's still all cardio cardio. The whole lifting
heavyweights thing was It's.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
A really good point.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
We were talking about this earlier in the week, that
you know, in terms of travel, people are traveling older
because they can They're just they're more supple them, they're
better on their feet, just basically based around the fact
that their new hippas better than their.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
The old one. Maybe that's it.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Okay, what about relationships? I reckon the older generation did
it better, so much better. I mean, I just heard
this morning the sat in Japan eighty percent of people
haven't even kissed anyone by the age of eighteen, eighty
percent of the population were losing human interaction. And our
relationships are shorter, are shorter, and they are more flow
by night.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
You know, you think about the older generation and stuff.
It was literally till death. Do you part? You make
that work? You were here for the long all you made.
Speaker 7 (28:47):
I would argue that that's negative.
Speaker 4 (28:51):
Get shot of them.
Speaker 5 (28:53):
And better.
Speaker 7 (28:55):
The last category is career.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Did our parents or our grand parents at forty have
do the career thing better than what we've got it now?
I would argue that the new generation barely work.
Speaker 4 (29:09):
But the jokes on us on that isn't it? We've
done as we just worked.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
We're in in between records A please get the worst
of everything.

one and a half one.

the horse question because I think he's going to get
there and ask the others.
Speaker 7 (32:11):
But don't start with the t rex question.

My Dad was struggled with that one, just with a
shaky hands.
Speaker 7 (33:43):
Why could we not get zucchini? We knew zu KENI

we didn't. We didn't say anything.
Speaker 4 (33:56):
Producer Rosie had to fill us in. We were scratching
our heads, Jason.
Speaker 7 (33:59):
I can see why.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
In and Seed Gurkin just a smaller Yeah, same shape family.
Speaker 4 (34:05):
So we played out for five hundred dollars tomorrow for
your Thursday. Thank you very much to Finns and the
emergency services around the country last night. Thirty two fire
callouts fire incidents last night for guy Falls. Not as
many as I was thinking, to be honest, it's thirty
two across the country. So but again either way, though,
thank you very much for being there like a wall
zone over my house last night. Tell you that, yeah,
right over the top of us, right right in front
(34:26):
your We went out out of our property.
Speaker 7 (34:30):
Just don't feel like you can claim to be a
hero here.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
When the kids were young, you were like hating on
it and even lighting them like where are.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
You all this?
Speaker 3 (34:38):
I was on a turn coat and I'm kind of
happily doing that. Like you can come down on guy
fakes as much as you like, but when you see
the joy and my five year old's eyes when he's
lighting a firecracker, you can't argue with it.
Speaker 1 (34:49):
I remember when when your kids weren't five, though, and
you're like three stage.
Speaker 4 (34:53):
Neighbors great, And maybe maybe.
Speaker 3 (34:57):
It's the type bum and immediate neighbors over the over there,
a couple of houses away.
Speaker 4 (35:01):
You go there, it's funny. Maybe it's the type other me.
But we didn't buy any We were from big Driver
and set up on a hill and watch the fireworks
go off over town. That was a nice way to
do it.
Speaker 7 (35:09):
Oh, I can't we moving?
Speaker 4 (35:11):
Jack is too? Hey are we asking before? If you
go through your phone, see how many messages you seen
it or received yesterday, because then you figures are out.
And I'm a little surprised by this. The average person
under the age of forty sends and receives eighty five
messages a day. That's under forties, right. Then when you
add in the over forties, the average drops to seventy
two a day. So the average person, no matter how
(35:32):
old you are, is sending and receiving seventy two messages
are day.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
It's a lot and they're kind of like little interruptions,
aren't they to take you kind of out of your
train of thought?
Speaker 1 (35:42):
Thirteen people I text you today, I've just looked at
that's a good caral, But that doesn't mean I didn't
send more messages that they were just the people.
Speaker 4 (35:49):
I'm sure there were back have been back and forth
and forth. So you're righting up around fifty or sixty
at the least there.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
Oh, and both of those two people included you. Two
you'd think I'd seen you enough. I know, like, why
was I text you on the day?
Speaker 4 (36:01):
So that is all we want to know, right, Just
go through your phone out see how many? How many
messages did you send yesterday? I mean, if the average
is seventy two and totally rerick, you might be up
around about fifty ish, maybe, is I reckon? I don't
even wait to below that.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
I don't want to count my Messenger, DMS or my
Instagram totally.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
I'm nine people plus that they would have been conversations.
Speaker 4 (36:20):
So I come up around the easier. I'm about eighteen.
Speaker 7 (36:24):
And what about what about messenger?
Speaker 4 (36:28):
And I'm including all those as well. I was really
quiet day esterday, and I'm okay with.
Speaker 7 (36:33):
That, oh day, If you need some more, don't, I'll
give you.
Speaker 4 (36:37):
Some fifteen memes from me. Okay, all right, the other
three of my wife? Where are you? What did you get?
Speaker 6 (36:43):
No?
Speaker 4 (36:44):
One hundred double oh four coast we'll see. That's six
to us if you ought to see that tis to
two six nine. Nine tents have come through saying the
average person at the age of forty sins and receives
eighty five messages a day. When you add an all
of us over forty, that drops to seventy two. There'
still a lot of messages.
Speaker 1 (36:59):
When you just seed messages specifically meaning text or do
you mean messages.
Speaker 4 (37:03):
And miss all in general? That's it.
Speaker 7 (37:06):
That's talied up. Like I have. I worked out thirteen people.
I think that I've been texting.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
White text us today already this morning, I've text one, two, three.

many text the messages they've been sitting through twenty six
and I'm on here saying ninety seven mainly to my parents' phones.
They got different phones obviously.
Speaker 1 (38:01):
Wow, ninety seven. I reckon people, you are sending more
than you think. If you add up any message you've
sent to people on DMS, on Instagram, on your messenger,
on your WhatsApp and on your text.
Speaker 4 (38:11):
Yeah, I thought he sent eighteen, got forty six back?
Speaker 7 (38:14):
Oh, receiving hard?
Speaker 4 (38:18):

I'm wheels on Facebook. I think I boarded some of
those as well, So I'm not sure if your candy, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (38:34):
What are we talking about? Twenty to thirty on?
Speaker 6 (38:36):
No, I wouldn't be the mere hearing this picto. So
I'm supposed to be resting.
Speaker 4 (38:43):
Okay, okay, right.
Speaker 7 (38:44):
Well it does it does depend on you know, how
busy you are in that day.
Speaker 4 (38:48):
Doesn't it only eight in the morning as well?
Speaker 1 (38:49):
Yeah, someone's just text after we shared that. We've been
texting about a rugby clinic. What's the rugby clinic? They
do skills in schools. Now you can sign up at
your primary school sports if.
Speaker 7 (39:00):
You want to look it up.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
I should have said that to the nation, not just
as Sam anyway.
Speaker 4 (39:06):
Yeah, so the average looks like we're below the average
across New Zealand. But we need to stop because they
are little distractions. When you just start looking people in
the ice shase.
Speaker 7 (39:13):
They wouldn't know about the rugby climates.
Speaker 4 (39:14):
So you know, we need to talk about it. You're
dining trends again.
Speaker 1 (39:26):
Sixty percent of people have admitted over the last twelve
months to dining alone at a sits down restaurant. If
you're in the younger age group of the Gen zs
slash millennials, that climbs to sixty eight percent.
Speaker 7 (39:39):
People are choosing, choosing not just.
Speaker 4 (39:42):
Because they have to, they're choosing to dinaloge I got
to say, is it like a work thing where you
just you away for works us on your own. But
other these people are choosing to do it.
Speaker 7 (39:48):
They're choosing to do it. It's a thing. Have you
done it anyone? Two six nine nine on the text
in the last twelve.
Speaker 4 (39:53):
Months, it's an interesting one for me. I don't like
my own company.
Speaker 7 (39:56):
Yeah, I don't like it either, And also I will
do it if I'm forced to. But I think if
I was forced to eat alone, I wouldn't be going
to a restaurant.
Speaker 4 (40:11):
I don't treat myself to find dining. If I'm going
alone alone a week, like.
Speaker 7 (40:16):
A dirty max carry or something in my room.
Speaker 4 (40:18):
You're on the same I'll be back in my room.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
What do you do at the restaurant? But I'm doing
it express. I'm not sitting there like, all right, light
a candle, let's go.
Speaker 4 (40:29):
I was at a nice restaurant and instead they put
you in the corner. And then it's awful because we
need this cheer anymore.
Speaker 1 (40:35):
No, No, it comes up to the one remaining.
Speaker 4 (40:38):
Ship when they say that Christian how many? So you're like,
it's just me, someone to join you.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
No, you sit down solo and just keep looking around
as if someone's coming.
Speaker 4 (40:52):
At some point, you have to really disappointedly they removed
the chairs.
Speaker 7 (40:59):
Dinner by there.
Speaker 4 (41:01):
That's huge that they're choosing to do this.
Speaker 1 (41:02):
I think it's a sad indictment on ourselves if we
can't go and I am totally guilty of this, if
we can't go to a restaurant and feel comfortable sitting
there on our own. And I would like to challenge
that sixty eight percent and say you do that now
and give me your phone.
Speaker 4 (41:18):
You do that.
Speaker 7 (41:19):
Without your phone and least see how you go.
Speaker 4 (41:22):
Maybe it's a different perspectives.
Speaker 3 (41:24):
Maybe the younger generation don't feel like they're alone when
they've got their phone. You know, they're sitting there dining
with their friends.
Speaker 7 (41:29):
Well that's what I'm saying, So you're not really alone.
So I reckon we should test this theory.
Speaker 1 (41:33):
I think the three of us should individually have to
go to dinner and stay for at least an hour
with no fun.
Speaker 4 (41:41):
I did a school pick ups yesterday and I leased
my phone on home and I got there a few
minutes earlier and went, hell do I do it? I
know what I would do, scrolling.
Speaker 3 (41:47):
G masticated chew every piece of twenty six times.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
I would be reading the menu over and over, I reckon,
can't decide still you order four minutes ago?
Speaker 4 (41:57):
I still as well, I reckon.
Speaker 1 (41:58):
I'd just be like, can you give me the drinks,
dessert and made menu? And then I just systematically go
to them all.
Speaker 4 (42:04):
If you do that, I mean I speak people who
can do that. I couldn't. But if you are heavy
on your own skin and you can do that and
feel comfortable, that go you.
Speaker 7 (42:11):
Yeah, And what do you do if you're not scrolling
your phone? What are you actually doing? Are you sitting
here meditating?
Speaker 6 (42:16):
All? Like?
Speaker 4 (42:16):
How does at work?
Speaker 7 (42:17):
Because I'm really liked to know what this what's.
Speaker 3 (42:19):
Wrong with the world as well as we can't just
sit there in the comfort of a restaurant anymore and
enjoy our food.
Speaker 4 (42:24):
I know what I would do.
Speaker 7 (42:25):
I would do without the conversation.
Speaker 1 (42:27):
I would be seven wines deep after five minutes to.
Speaker 4 (42:31):
Stumble out of the restaurant. She's good, guys, he's drinking
alone again.

Tony Jason Sam's feel Good Breakfast Can't Sharp podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Today on the show, we talked about being forty now
and back in the eighties and who had it better
and could we.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
Pass an NCEEA exam? Today we try a hand at geography.
Speaker 4 (00:20):
And the average person is doing this round eighty five
times a day if they're under forty. When you include
the over forties, found about seventy two times a day.
That's a lot. Though, what is it.
Speaker 5 (00:36):
Racing? This time?
Speaker 4 (00:37):
Battle will be the last.
Speaker 6 (00:41):
We stand?
Speaker 4 (00:41):
Is the one we have told you back was pretty
much the last horse? But that's okay? Was it Bazookah? No,
it's not okay.
Speaker 7 (00:47):
Forducy Buckero?
Speaker 1 (00:49):
But our best horse got fourth. But Night's Choice two
six ninety nine if anyone actually backs that outside chance?
Because what a payday?
Speaker 4 (00:58):
What was the payday? It was a sixteen buda I
think it was. I know, I know that cool.
Speaker 7 (01:06):
Story is coming out of the cup though.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
So Night's Choice is trained by a Kiwi who last
trained Lexon and she trained Ehel But the jockey, how
cool is the jockey. The jockey was on the Voice
Australia and I mean, I don't want to like type
cast jockeys.
Speaker 7 (01:23):
But generally they will have quite squeaky voices. This guy
listen to.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
Him, you go right.
Speaker 6 (01:36):
Up.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
Robbie Dolan's singing.
Speaker 7 (01:40):
How good is he? So I think.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Australia is going off because they're like, oh, this guy
can sing. And they profiled him before the race, and
now he's come through his first winner.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
And the chance of winning was pretty slim as well.
And there's the thing about the Melbourne Cup. You get
you get tips every year, don't you and they never come.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
I don't want to I don't want to cast dispersions
because I'm in no way an expert. But the jockey
on Buccaroo had a shocker. He was sitting seeking to
last and he's just never made his move. I was like,
when's he gonna go? He's the favorite, come on?
Speaker 3 (02:09):
Didn't we hear that he'd actually run a race a
few days earlier.
Speaker 7 (02:17):
Different horse leading with about five meters to go, and.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
See King was the other one. We got told back
and he was down with butter on the back. Sorry
we went on the back.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
Do you know The only tips so that's ever won
me any money was the TVZ journalist.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Wonderful man? Was it?
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Steven Stephen Stewart Stephens such a good tips to the
best tips of them all. He's been competing on the
sport for years and do you know what? So I
worked alongside him on sport for about eight years and
I'd be doing my story, like come back from filming
and I hear this, Yes.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Can I just stop.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
I don't know too much about horse racing at all,
but I think I don't know what it's called you
get the first four horses or something. If you had
the first four horses, I saw that. Yeah, that was
paying something like seven hundred and something thousand dollars. Outrageous,
that's how That's how massive those odds were, those horses
that came in first. And if you put a dollar down,
I think it was yeah, because.
Speaker 7 (03:10):
For a dollar you can times it by she.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
Put one hundred bucks a pickle four your way.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Sure, can we just quickly talk about the other part
of the Melbourne Cup then we all love a couple
of highlights. Paris Hilton, I thought looked amazing. She starred
over at the Melbourne carp and yellow. So I'm telling
you yellow oranges citruses are the color for the summer.
And I just so happened to have purchased a yellow
dress es today for Cup Day next week.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
I took my rice on the color.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Don't think I'm going to look like Paris Hilt Nicky Hilton,
it was her sister.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Yeah, yeah, because we were owing. Weren't we stready on
the color as your dress? Yesterday?
Speaker 4 (03:46):
You said, what about the blue?
Speaker 3 (03:47):
I see no street the yellows and joke, don't think
you with it?
Speaker 4 (03:52):
What was the designer's name again?
Speaker 7 (03:53):
Cave and Crisp. Yeah, thanks Sam, No worries like you.
Speaker 4 (03:57):
I've got you. You get there over. There's a horse name.
There's a horse name you're never gonna forget. The horse
name was Are and the horse won the race. Heavels
of this top of the stretch coming into the final
for long now, Crafty CJ with an air lead, continues
to fight on on the outside.
Speaker 8 (04:14):
They're coming down to the finish and it's a little
wise guy was second and that's.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
What you want. You look great? Do you live in
the yellow dress?
Speaker 6 (04:27):
Are you?
Speaker 8 (04:27):
Well?
Speaker 7 (04:28):
It's actually caused the pirates.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
Can you feel it. It's the Jackson's on Coach I
Feel Good Breakfast with Tony Chase, the Sam of course
theme song for the Breakers. Top of the nbal table
table at the moment, aren't.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
They Yeah, I got a couple of players scoring into
the thirties. It's really encouraging to see it.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
If you've ever been to the Breakers and it starts
with dun dun a starts cl Yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
It's the halftime song. Isn't it funny that it's actually
World Basketball Day today honor of the game that was
invented in eighteen ninety one by a Canadian guy called
James Naismith. This is basically muckey out a WAYMCA, but
are passing the time bouncing a ball around and it
became the game.
Speaker 7 (05:03):
I love basketball was a little brilliant game.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Yeah, good spig tatus for a that's lots of fun
for a lot of people. Remember the school yard exams
are at the moment they started yesterday. A lot of
families are dealing with exams streets in the house this week.
So how would we go if we had to sit
an exam? So I looked through the timetable, right and
geography is up for this year's This year's the Year
(05:27):
eleven team, so basically what we used to call FI form.
Speaker 5 (05:28):
Okay, say, year eleven.
Speaker 7 (05:30):
Did you do geography in for form at school?
Speaker 5 (05:32):
Yes? Same.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
I'm in a rabbit hole over.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
I just google my old teacher's magnificent for geography, mister
Don Johnson Sandy Passway in twenty twenty three. But he
put me in good Stead good Man Linton comedy, which
is why I love the subject.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
You know, he's one of those sages.
Speaker 7 (05:45):
Everyone has the story right.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
When I think of my geography, I remember for form
GEO and you know when you had there was like
a topography section of the exam, Yes, and you had
to pinpoint on a map exactly where something was. And
I remember in New Plymouth ours was we had to
point where Mount Tananaki was and I did it exactly
how we were taught, and I got it wrong.
Speaker 7 (06:05):
And I'm like, how can I get it wrong? Teacher?
This is where you told me to put it. And
they're like, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
In terms of its topography map, you know the ones
with the lines and the altitude. Yes, I don't think
there's anything more obvious than Mount Tananaki.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Get real close.
Speaker 7 (06:23):
In the middle.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
You were an amazing teacher, mister Allison at Kademy High
School is great man. Anyway, again, the teachers of the
reason you take some of these subjects, right, we don't
take subjects?
Speaker 7 (06:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (06:33):
True? How do we go?
Speaker 7 (06:34):
So?
Speaker 4 (06:34):
I looked at last year's year eleven geography exam and
basically the whole thing was about COVID nineteen and the
impact it had on the Cook Island's economy. And so
I thought that's it was basically a whole bunch of
give us a topography.
Speaker 7 (06:45):
That's a bit weird.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
How it affected the economy, Isn't it like accounting or economics.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
How they're faced important challenges looking forward to the future. Anyway,
So that was a big So I went further back
through the years and I we're way way back. This
is the late nineties, you know, all right, So you're
ready for this. What country the most natural lakes in
the world?
Speaker 7 (07:02):
Canada?
Speaker 4 (07:03):
No, it's America. It's Canada. Canada passing so far, so fast,
so good. Okay. Suppose the temperature at a place by
the sea is twenty degrees celsius at these ones, what
the temperatureuld be at the same place, but one thousand
meters above sea level it drops the formula.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
So formula it drops one degree for every one hundred
feet I think it is.
Speaker 7 (07:25):
That wasn't part of my syllabus on thousands.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
So I'm going to go with a thousand. I'm going
to go with seventeen degrees. Shose we're not being thirteen
point five degrees at all. But you knew the formula.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
There's a formula between two layers of clothing and.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Four I now have.
Speaker 7 (07:41):
It's working working.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
I have no idea, all right, last one of the
pilots would know that they know the drop, all right,
So I'll this one multi choice?
Speaker 4 (07:52):
Okay, all right? Why do underground rivers commonly form in
limestone regions like Northland white out or Hawks Bay Wide
it up and Nelson care in Southland? Here your options?
Why do underground rivers commonly form in limestone? M choice?
Speaker 3 (08:05):
I don't need multi choice, mate, It's because the limestone
breaks down because he is sitting in the water.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
That is option B, and it's been.
Speaker 7 (08:14):
Chosen bick degrees.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
Why not anyway? Hey, if you are dealing with exam
stress in your household, very best of love, who's going
to win this one? Though? Even talking to Jack Tame
and Washington yesterday he said, I don't don't know flip
a coin.
Speaker 7 (08:31):
I hate it when they say flipper the cooin.
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Yeah, well it is that tired.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
I've done a little bit of research in terms of
who the main outlets and who they think is going
to win the election. So the economist, who is effectively
a stats company, they have Carmela, so it's going to
be the first to reach two hundred and seventy. They
have her two seventy six and Trump at two sixty two.
Now the two biggest election prognosticators.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
Isn't that a great Yeah?
Speaker 3 (08:58):
I'm almanek Ellen ellen Lychman, us professor correctly predicted the
last nine elections has Carmela. The other side of that
equation in terms of prognostigators are Nate Silver is also
heavily respected, and he thinks President Trump will prevail. The
fact that they are opposing shows how tight this one.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
They already said this will be undoubtedly the closest election
of all time.
Speaker 9 (09:22):
Of all time, the most accurate economist, Christopher Broad has
Donald Trump winning it, and the betting odds I have
since narrowed, but they have Trump winning fifty nine percent
to Kamla's forty one.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
So fuck, it's really no, it's really interesting. There's so
many different sort of things going on in this one.
You will have noticed, just like we noticed with Hillary Clinton,
in the last few days, a whole lot of singers
and stars have come out in force to support Kamala Harris.
Did you see yesterday Ricky Martin, wonderful man, I've met him.
If he's supporting Kamala Harris, she must be good because
(09:56):
he is one of life's treasures. I saw he was playing.
You've had Beyonce, You've had Lizzo.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
The big one for.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Donald Trump coming out, you said it was Joe Rogan,
who obviously the podcast so.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Who commands a massive audience.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
He came out of support based on what Elon Musk
said about Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Interesting that Joe Rogan supporting Donald Trump after he gave
him that treadmill. Yet rant that Sam shed that's this morning.
She talks about how wonderful is it?
Speaker 6 (10:23):
Run?
Speaker 4 (10:24):
Am so good on a treadmill.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
They would like step and make it steeper and I
got to stay on it all dad.
Speaker 7 (10:30):
Do you know another interesting thing?
Speaker 1 (10:32):
That I reckon, and Jack Tame told us this that
women are coming out and forced to vote for Kamala Harris.
The difference between her run for the presidency and Hillary
Clinton's is she has not been waiving that I'm a
female flag. She's obviously seeing that as a negative. So
she is absolutely not saying that at all, even though
let's not forget if she becomes a president, she'll be
(10:54):
the first woman ever.
Speaker 7 (10:56):
That's exactly. So.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
I think that some of the polling boos are starting
to close right about now by the looks of things,
and we're going to get some more results throughout the day.
So I think from about midday onwards we'll start getting
results starting tripping through. We won't know for a couple
of days. Though.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
They reckon no, I would love to put Donald Trump
on a treadment and just prove that very wrong. I
started at like an eight incline at speed five, just
so I'd.
Speaker 7 (11:17):
Love to put them on speed twenty and see.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
No way. And there's a group called the Alternative Commentary Collective.
They'd be loved and complained about because of the way
they commentate sports matches, but they're so popular they now
put a book out detailing the triumphs and utter disaster
as they've been involved in. We're about to chat with
the main man, Mike Laying about this because on day
one of the ACC you guys put this together, and
(11:42):
on day one you were booted out of a really
famous sporting venue, Mike.
Speaker 5 (11:45):
Out of a famous sporting event. Yeah.
Speaker 10 (11:47):
No, we're the only commentary team to ever be thrown
out of a World Cup.
Speaker 5 (11:53):
Thank you.
Speaker 7 (11:53):
You hindered your ways with the organizers had.
Speaker 5 (11:56):
I don't know, actually I don't know.
Speaker 10 (11:58):
It was the twenty fifteen Cricket World Cup here in
New Zealand. The ICC they kind of I don't know.
I don't think they knew what they were getting themselves
in for when they let us in the grounds. But
it didn't last long because they immediately threw us out
and it was greatually pretty good for us because at
the time we were gutted because the only reason we
really started the Alternative Commentary Collective was so we could
get together as mates, drink beers and comment tate cricket and.
Speaker 5 (12:21):
Be paid for it, and so that's how it started.
Speaker 10 (12:23):
So to be thrown out of the grounds was a
bit of a d shrinker for us because we were like, oh,
we're not going to beat the ground anymore.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
That's kind of a key, a key element of why
we started this.
Speaker 10 (12:31):
And then it was the best thing that ever happened
to us because it went global, I mean because it
was a great headline commentary team thrown out of World Cup, yes,
and people were like, what the hell is this?
Speaker 1 (12:40):
And now you're basically a professional outfit and it's just
morphed into all these other sports.
Speaker 4 (12:44):
Yeah, it's good.
Speaker 5 (12:45):
I mean, it's I'm waiting for it to blow up
eventually one day.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
Ten years thoughts, So hell.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Of a story, Like, you know, it's all fun and games,
but it's surprisingly cognitive.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
I genuinely like it.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
And now you've managed to put it together, the whole
story into an elmina, which I didn't even know what
it was.
Speaker 5 (13:01):
You know what alm makers.
Speaker 4 (13:04):
It's a collection.
Speaker 10 (13:04):
It's like a history book really ten years Almanac of
New Zealand sport because we're it's our tenth birthday this year,
so we kind of like it's not a it's not.
Speaker 5 (13:12):
A serious books. It's very much lighthearted.
Speaker 10 (13:15):
We gathered that you can there is elements of truth
in there and there is elements of untruth in there.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
So how did you get the time? So it's you,
Matt Heath and Dylan Cleaver have put it together.
Speaker 7 (13:24):
When did you guys do this?
Speaker 4 (13:26):
It's been about six months probably.
Speaker 10 (13:28):
All the oral histories are very funny in here, and
they kind of made me smile because basically we interviewed
everyone on the acc of what their view of different stories,
and they're wildly different. For example, Leehart's recollection of that
twenty fifteen World Cup is wildly different to Matt Heath,
which is wildly different to Jason Hoyt who can't remember anything.
Speaker 7 (13:47):
You were all different amounts of beer.
Speaker 10 (13:49):
Deep absolutely, and so this it's a great it's a
great way of looking at the stories and they're completely
wildly different. There's it's all all sport over the last
ten years, so a couple of World Cups near the
Olympics is Commonwealth Games. Our worst crimes are in here.
It's a fun book. It's a very picture picture heavy too,
which is always you enjoyed that, Sam.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Christmas, I appreciate that because I mean, at the end
of the day, what you're good to ask people to
do that are going to buy this bock is to
put down their beer and their cricket cricket bat and
pick up a book that's not that's that's a big
ass yes.
Speaker 10 (14:23):
And you know what it's. You can pick it up
at any page and just read. Hey, look, I'll sign one.
You can give it away if you want.
Speaker 7 (14:28):
Please six ninety nine. If you'd like this coffee of the.
Speaker 5 (14:31):
Almanac and I'll draw a willy on it.
Speaker 8 (14:33):
Please.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Class Coasts, Feel Good Breakfast catch up podcast with Tony Street,
Jason Reeves and Sam Wallace.
Speaker 4 (14:44):
It's that time of the year, right, skins are pointing
into the year. Exams are on across the country today.
We know that Christmas is looming across us. Of course
we know that as well, but it's also wedding season
as well. And if you've done the whole wedding thing
and maybe at the stage in your life where your
own kids are getting married, or you know friends of
yours inviting them to the you to their kids weddings,
what's the etiquet when it comes to gifts.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Oh, it's really awkward because I feel like in New Zealand,
I think primarily you get a wedding gift, whether that
is a present or whether it is a wishing well donation.
Right where it starts to get a little bit murky
is bridesmaids that are paying for things like their address,
potentially their shoes. People pay a lot of money to
go to a hens do or bridle shower. Right, So
(15:28):
I've organized quite a few hens dos in my time,
and generally you're charging one hundred and fifty bucks ahead, right,
and then do you get a gift on top of that?
We never did for hens dos. But when you see
say bridal shower, Jase, that's slightly class here, and then
I think there's potentially engagement parties on top of that.
Speaker 4 (15:47):
It's a good point.
Speaker 7 (15:47):
Yeah, a lot of gifts.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
So a bridal party, sorry, a bridal shower is a
few months to a few weeks before the wedding.
Speaker 7 (15:53):
So it's a classy version of a.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
Hen class it is. I think it's the one of
the mum's throw I.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Think I just don't think that happens much in New Zealand.
I think New Zealand women predominantly have hisins dos. And
you definitely don't get prisons for hents.
Speaker 7 (16:04):
You just pay to go.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
You paid, okay, so then you pay to go to
the hens Do, then you go to the wedding as well.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
So let's say you pay one hundred and fifty bucks
to go to the hens Do, then you buy a
prison and saying that when you pay to go to
the hins Do, you're paying for a night out, you're
getting dinner.
Speaker 4 (16:20):
Yeah, but it's so.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
A massive commitment, like you know, his party, bridle shower,
then you've got if you're part of the wedding party,
you got shoes, dress, and then if it's a location
wedding accommodation as well.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Generally the bride and groom will pay for the dress
though well, and the weddings I've been to quite often
the bridesmaids will pay for these shoes.
Speaker 4 (16:37):
Maybe I sometimes the bridesmaids are buying their own dresses
and then suddenly you've got that on top of that
as well. So then when it comes to there, if
you've done all that, let's say, for example, you're a bridesmaid,
you've bought a dress or maybe your shoes, and you've
gone to the Hens night. Now you go to the
wedding as well.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
You know what if your bridesmaids several times over if
you're super popular goal, and you keep getting asked.
Speaker 4 (16:58):
You'd have been a bridesmaid a few times? When you're streating.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
I'm trying to Just as they said that, I was like,
how many times have I been to bride's maid? I
think I'm like maybe like six or seven?
Speaker 4 (17:07):
Is that right? I think I'm two. I'm not going.
Speaker 7 (17:09):
Sister had to have me obligatory.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
Yeah, So what are your thoughts on that? What are
the rules? What do you think that is the goal?
When it comes to the gifts for this sort of stuff.
If you're go into the bridal shower or a hen's
night and then maybe you know you have hit to
buy the dress or the shoes as well, and you
go to the wedding too, what's the thing on the gifts?
Speaker 7 (17:26):
Come on, I just remembered I was also a glues woman.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
No brides man. I'm a woman. What were flicker takes?
The two six nine nine? I do feel for you
if you're sitting exams or if you if someone in
your family is sitting exams this week in a couple
of weeks, parents and grandparents dealing with that streets in
the households?
Speaker 6 (17:48):
What is it?
Speaker 4 (17:48):
Geography for year eleven today.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
No, especially especially if you're at Canterbury University and you've
got this quirtz.
Speaker 7 (17:54):
Yeah they reckon it was shredded chicken.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
But did you see all the boys on the news
are all like, yeah, you know, I hope we get
compassionate consideration.
Speaker 7 (18:03):
I'm like, is this a big plot?
Speaker 4 (18:06):
Apparently it was so bad that not there win't enough
toilets to go.
Speaker 7 (18:09):
Around queues at four am for the bathroom.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
And scary people need to go out and someone described
it as fountains.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
That's hostile living in its best, isn't it when you're
queuing with the squirts.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
So we're getting into summer season, of course, wedding season
for a lot of people as well, a lot of
families dealing with that this coming year too, and so
therefore we ask the question, okay, if you get invited
to stay like the Hen's Night and nowadays a lot
of people doing the bridal showers too and the wedding, well,
how many gifts you have to give it that sort
of stage there and on the text on two six
nine nine, A few different answers on this one. One
one gift is all you need. Another one is saying
(18:45):
small gift for the bride, for the bridal party, and
then money for the couple. That's what some people are saying. Wow,
it's a lot, isn't it. It adds up so quickly,
it does, say Georgina, is it just us where we
just tied on this maybe the one gift? What are
your thoughts?
Speaker 8 (18:59):
No, we did, absolutely, it's a gift for the bride.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
No, we.
Speaker 6 (19:09):
Gave it all our girl friends together. Everybody contributed to
the weekend and it was more about spending quality time
together with a bride to be for.
Speaker 7 (19:23):
Your big day, So no guests required at all. I agree.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
That's exactly what I have done with all the weddings
I've been to. Yes, you contribute to the Hen's weekend
or the hens party, but you're sort of all in
for that, and you'd have to pay for dinner anyway.
Speaker 7 (19:36):
I don't think a bride expects.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Again, I feel right, you know, like, at the end
of the day, you don't really remember the guests. All
you want is people's participation to celebrate with you. And
I think the onus of all that responsibility of the
gift is kind of it's more worn on the person
that's buying the gift.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
You know, you don't really feel like you need to do.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
No, they don't do you know what I just thought then,
just hearing that comment, why do we not? But like
we with birthday parties, why don't why do we not
pull money to make a cool gift?
Speaker 6 (20:04):
Like?
Speaker 7 (20:04):
Why does that interesting?
Speaker 4 (20:05):
You say that because somebody see them on the tap.
Everyone just jumping and pull and gets them something really
nice together, you.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Know, and then everyone sort of spends the same amount
and many hands make a great gift and one person
just has to take charge.
Speaker 4 (20:16):
It's that the continered blender or something like that.
Speaker 7 (20:18):
Something amazing when you look at the gifts.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
So it is the stuff that sits at the top
and the back of the cupboard, the.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
Cocktail glasses you've never used.
Speaker 8 (20:28):
Hello, it's getting out of control to me recently, I
went to last week in and travel around. It was
nearly four hundred dollars where you all brewist up. We
had to get costumes and features, and then there's a
(20:51):
present and the wedding to come. Yeah, I just think
it's getting out of control. What people are expect to
play and then here you count that, you know.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Right, horn on this because I love reasons to celebrate.
But I don't think it necessarily has to be whoppingly
expensive either.
Speaker 4 (21:13):
I agree with you. And a great text. Well this
creting a plate. That's all you need. Creating a plate.
Speaker 7 (21:18):
It's like a class.
Speaker 4 (21:21):
It sounds like that's a good time.
Speaker 7 (21:23):
What five CANape? Sam?
Speaker 2 (21:25):
Hey?
Speaker 3 (21:26):
No, no, I aimed at three canapees and you told
me to.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
Up the men you mate?
Speaker 7 (21:30):
Now, aren't you glad you did?
Speaker 5 (21:31):
Well?
Speaker 3 (21:31):
You look me in the eye every time you ate
one and said and whispered to me six, Thanks so
much taking part of it.
Speaker 4 (21:46):
Well, it's Wednesdays all we tell you. With the lovely
Nicky read from Milford Asset Management to find out more
about when it comes to sitting up for life's ages
and stages. So nick you see to answer a couple
of questions, but remember this is only information to help
you understand more and it's not financial advice. So Nikki,
you need to make a mental shift as we move
through the age? Is don't we like? So we're different
beasts when we're twenties and then into our thirties. It's
(22:07):
a whole different ball game.
Speaker 11 (22:08):
To a it is, you know, it's more foundational. You
should be bedded into your finances at this point in
your life. You know, you're not a new grad. You
know a lot of people are saving for their first time.
Some even have their first time in their thirties.
Speaker 9 (22:23):
You know.
Speaker 11 (22:24):
For me, you know, the number one thing in my
experience has been as you start to progress your career
and you earn a bit more and you're settling into adulthood,
don't don't adjust your lifestyle based on earning more. Avoid
that lifestyle creep if you, if you can at all,
because I'm.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
Sure that's impossible. I mean, then you start to throw
kids into it as well.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
So wedding, yes, yeah, weddings, engagement rings, children, How do you?
Speaker 4 (22:53):
How do you prevent that creep?
Speaker 11 (22:54):
Like I think, if you, it's about that financial discipline,
about budget. For me, when I got a new job
or a pay rise, I would treat myself to a
nice pair of shoes. That was my thing, and then
the rest I'd increase my kevsaver contributions or save more.
Speaker 7 (23:11):
I am a bit of one.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
Why would you do that?
Speaker 5 (23:13):
Good?
Speaker 3 (23:13):
And why would you go to a fund that you
can only access later in life, especially when you're young
in your thirties and you kind of you've got more
financial steps to take. Why wouldn't you set up another
fund outside of the kiwisaver so that you can have
access to that within Milford asset.
Speaker 11 (23:27):
Yeah, you can absolutely do that too. Look, I don't
care how people do it, but what you see is
as you earn more, you tend to spend a bit more.
You feel a bit more flush. And in your thirties
you've got lots of big goals as you say, you've
got weddings and kids, potentially buying your first home.
Speaker 4 (23:43):
Things.
Speaker 11 (23:44):
It's an expensive decade. So setting yourself up to not
thresh away the extra money that you've got if you can,
it's a really good step to save more, just as
you would when your mortgage interest rates come down, try
not to spend the extra money you've now got in
your pocket.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
Have those habits bettered in Yeah? Yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
And also with that change as well with the kids,
I mean, that's another chance to start looking to invest
in creating funds for them, which is another expense for you,
but it kind of something you can't overlook with the
way house prices are going and education.
Speaker 11 (24:14):
Yep, that's right, and and also gives the mess they
get older, something to look too to understand financial markets
and the value of saving and investing.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
Or you turn your kid into a trust fun baby
because you've done well your Milford asset's taken off. Kids
sitting there with turn and fifty can about turning into
a spoil lit all.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
You can't let them know about it. Things are going well.

(24:55):
eight million dollars lotter and I had four makes me
want to.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Give a ticket after the lost This is incurred at
the Melbourne Cup yesterday.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
I had a double loss yesterday because it also burned
a fair bit of cash on fireworks as well.
Speaker 4 (25:06):
Oh no, that was in the whole yesterday.
Speaker 7 (25:08):
Oh you're not supposed to admit you do fireworks.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
Say that anymore, you'll get lashed. It was enjoyable to say.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
We need to talk about turning forty or the age
around forty, because I found this really good article that
kind of looked at the differences between being a forty
year old today in twenty twenty four versus perhaps being
forty back in the eighties or nineties, and how much
it's changed.
Speaker 7 (25:32):
So this kind of sums it up a wee bit.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Forty is supposedly the new thirty. The start of middle
age no longer means sending your kids off to college,
getting a divorce, or buying yourself a new car a corvette.
The modern forty means having toddlers running around, buying your
first home, and at last catching up on retirement savings,
or looking around and wondering whether some.
Speaker 7 (25:54):
Of these life touch points passed you by. And I
think it's a good time to reflect on.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
How different it is to be forty now than perhaps
what your parents or your grandparents were like.
Speaker 4 (26:05):
Remember my dad's fortieth I was at my dad's fortieth,
I was a teenager.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
I was a teenager nearly getting ready to go to university.
In my fortieth last year, my eldest was eleven, My
youngest was five.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
Well, we three years ago, my fortieth, and I just
had the twins, didn't I.
Speaker 7 (26:25):
You had you didn't have told us you had babies.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
I had two new babies. Went on my fortieth birthday
at our house. It was it was a lot.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
I turned forty in May and our youngest was born
in October the year before, so he was only about
seven months old, and that was my fortieth. Wow. I know, crazy.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
It is crazy because I think about having a child
now and I think, oh gosh.
Speaker 7 (26:45):
But I think it's because I've done twelve years of parents,
you know what I mean. And I'm like, oh, no,
so kids wise, what do we think.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
Is it better to be forty back in the eighties
nineties or now?
Speaker 4 (26:57):
Well you're allowed to like fireworks? Back then it was cool. Yeah.
I think probably our parents did it better. I think
I think.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
They probably did too, because if they were forty then
they were kind of through most of the hard parents
and phases.
Speaker 4 (27:09):
I'm looking at my parents now, they're in their sixties
and they're still young and sprightly, and the way they
hang out with the grandkids and play with the grand
kids and us is great.
Speaker 7 (27:15):
I'm looking at the money ketogran.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
I'm thinking they definitely did it well. I don't know,
but I'm pretty sure at the same age as me,
my parents didn't have such a big mortgage.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
Yeah, that's a good point.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Yeah, they were through that phase. They got through phases quicker.
Speaker 4 (27:30):
They also lived a.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
Life of less luxury though you know, we do money
on kind of frivolous things.
Speaker 7 (27:35):
Yeah, but is that not a win for them? They
lived the simple life.
Speaker 4 (27:38):
The simple life. We're going back to them now, people
growing their own beeries and having a lot more homemade meals.
Speaker 7 (27:43):
Do you know iPhones to buy?
Speaker 4 (27:44):
No, that's right.
Speaker 7 (27:46):
What about health? I think we're winning the health game.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
I think at forty all three of us are probably
healthier than what our parents were at forty.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
A better knowledge, bit of exercises.
Speaker 7 (27:56):
I'm definitely fitter. I reckon maybe not that my dad.
Speaker 4 (27:59):
My dad was. I think he'still running marathons and referring rugby.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
Game, but he's still all cardio cardio. The whole lifting
heavyweights thing was It's.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
A really good point.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
We were talking about this earlier in the week, that
you know, in terms of travel, people are traveling older
because they can They're just they're more supple them, they're
better on their feet, just basically based around the fact
that their new hippas better than their.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
The old one. Maybe that's it.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Okay, what about relationships? I reckon the older generation did
it better, so much better. I mean, I just heard
this morning the sat in Japan eighty percent of people
haven't even kissed anyone by the age of eighteen, eighty
percent of the population were losing human interaction. And our
relationships are shorter, are shorter, and they are more flow
by night.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
You know, you think about the older generation and stuff.
It was literally till death. Do you part? You make
that work? You were here for the long all you made.
Speaker 7 (28:47):
I would argue that that's negative.
Speaker 4 (28:51):
Get shot of them.
Speaker 5 (28:53):
And better.
Speaker 7 (28:55):
The last category is career.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Did our parents or our grand parents at forty have
do the career thing better than what we've got it now?
I would argue that the new generation barely work.
Speaker 4 (29:09):
But the jokes on us on that isn't it? We've
done as we just worked.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
We're in in between records A please get the worst
of everything.

Well, I just filled because they did see knights. What
horse won the Melbourne Cup? And they said knights? And
you know the answer? Night's choice? You call it a
one and a half one.

Can you just when you get Jase Beck in avoid
the horse question because I think he's going to get
there and ask the others.
Speaker 7 (32:11):
But don't start with the t rex question.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
Okay, because I reckon they might be the only two. Okay, Jason,

My Dad was struggled with that one, just with a
shaky hands.
Speaker 7 (33:43):
Why could we not get zucchini? We knew zu KENI

So we played out for five hundred dollars tomorrow for

many as I was thinking, to be honest, it's thirty
two across the country. So but again either way, though,
thank you very much for being there like a wall
zone over my house last night. Tell you that, yeah,
right over the top of us, right right in front
(34:26):
your We went out out of our property.
Speaker 7 (34:30):
Just don't feel like you can claim to be a
hero here.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
When the kids were young, you were like hating on
it and even lighting them like where are.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
You all this?
Speaker 3 (34:38):
I was on a turn coat and I'm kind of
happily doing that. Like you can come down on guy
fakes as much as you like, but when you see
the joy and my five year old's eyes when he's
lighting a firecracker, you can't argue with it.
Speaker 1 (34:49):
I remember when when your kids weren't five, though, and
you're like three stage.
Speaker 4 (34:53):
Neighbors great, And maybe maybe.
Speaker 3 (34:57):
It's the type bum and immediate neighbors over the over there,
a couple of houses away.
Speaker 4 (35:01):
You go there, it's funny. Maybe it's the type other me.
But we didn't buy any We were from big Driver
and set up on a hill and watch the fireworks
go off over town. That was a nice way to
do it.
Speaker 7 (35:09):
Oh, I can't we moving?
Speaker 4 (35:11):
Jack is too? Hey are we asking before? If you
go through your phone, see how many messages you seen
it or received yesterday, because then you figures are out.
And I'm a little surprised by this. The average person
under the age of forty sends and receives eighty five
messages a day. That's under forties, right. Then when you
add in the over forties, the average drops to seventy
two a day. So the average person, no matter how
(35:32):
old you are, is sending and receiving seventy two messages
are day.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
It's a lot and they're kind of like little interruptions,
aren't they to take you kind of out of your
train of thought?
Speaker 1 (35:42):
Thirteen people I text you today, I've just looked at
that's a good caral, But that doesn't mean I didn't
send more messages that they were just the people.
Speaker 4 (35:49):
I'm sure there were back have been back and forth
and forth. So you're righting up around fifty or sixty
at the least there.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
Oh, and both of those two people included you. Two
you'd think I'd seen you enough. I know, like, why
was I text you on the day?
Speaker 4 (36:01):
So that is all we want to know, right, Just
go through your phone out see how many? How many
messages did you send yesterday? I mean, if the average
is seventy two and totally rerick, you might be up
around about fifty ish, maybe, is I reckon? I don't
even wait to below that.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
I don't want to count my Messenger, DMS or my
Instagram totally.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
I'm nine people plus that they would have been conversations.
Speaker 4 (36:20):
So I come up around the easier. I'm about eighteen.
Speaker 7 (36:24):
And what about what about messenger?
Speaker 4 (36:28):
And I'm including all those as well. I was really
quiet day esterday, and I'm okay with.
Speaker 7 (36:33):
That, oh day, If you need some more, don't, I'll
give you.
Speaker 4 (36:37):
Some fifteen memes from me. Okay, all right, the other
three of my wife? Where are you? What did you get?
Speaker 6 (36:43):
No?
Speaker 4 (36:44):
One hundred double oh four coast we'll see. That's six
to us if you ought to see that tis to
two six nine. Nine tents have come through saying the
average person at the age of forty sins and receives
eighty five messages a day. When you add an all
of us over forty, that drops to seventy two. There'
still a lot of messages.
Speaker 1 (36:59):
When you just seed messages specifically meaning text or do
you mean messages.
Speaker 4 (37:03):
And miss all in general? That's it.
Speaker 7 (37:06):
That's talied up. Like I have. I worked out thirteen people.
I think that I've been texting.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
White text us today already this morning, I've text one, two, three.
Speaker 7 (37:16):

Rugby clinic. Thanks.
Speaker 4 (37:42):
Yeah, And I've texted my wife.
Speaker 3 (37:44):
We've had a whole conversation about the Rugby clinic.
Speaker 4 (37:47):
I've been busy.
Speaker 7 (37:48):
You're just being focusing on your job.
Speaker 4 (37:51):
You he's going through six nine nine, though about how
many text the messages they've been sitting through twenty six
and I'm on here saying ninety seven mainly to my parents' phones.
They got different phones obviously.
Speaker 1 (38:01):
Wow, ninety seven. I reckon people, you are sending more
than you think. If you add up any message you've
sent to people on DMS, on Instagram, on your messenger,
on your WhatsApp and on your text.
Speaker 4 (38:11):
Yeah, I thought he sent eighteen, got forty six back?
Speaker 7 (38:14):
Oh, receiving hard?
Speaker 4 (38:18):
Hello, haven't you seen yesterday?
Speaker 6 (38:20):
I only seen six check messages, but I did check
my messenger and I've seen fourth from there, and you know,
I'm wheels on Facebook. I think I boarded some of
those as well, So I'm not sure if your candy, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (38:34):
What are we talking about? Twenty to thirty on?
Speaker 6 (38:36):
No, I wouldn't be the mere hearing this picto. So
I'm supposed to be resting.
Speaker 4 (38:43):
Okay, okay, right.
Speaker 7 (38:44):
Well it does it does depend on you know, how
busy you are in that day.
Speaker 4 (38:48):
Doesn't it only eight in the morning as well?
Speaker 1 (38:49):
Yeah, someone's just text after we shared that. We've been
texting about a rugby clinic. What's the rugby clinic? They
do skills in schools. Now you can sign up at
your primary school sports if.
Speaker 7 (39:00):
You want to look it up.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
I should have said that to the nation, not just
as Sam anyway.
Speaker 4 (39:06):
Yeah, so the average looks like we're below the average
across New Zealand. But we need to stop because they
are little distractions. When you just start looking people in
the ice shase.
Speaker 7 (39:13):
They wouldn't know about the rugby climates.
Speaker 4 (39:14):
So you know, we need to talk about it. You're
dining trends again.
Speaker 1 (39:26):
Sixty percent of people have admitted over the last twelve
months to dining alone at a sits down restaurant. If
you're in the younger age group of the Gen zs
slash millennials, that climbs to sixty eight percent.
Speaker 7 (39:39):
People are choosing, choosing not just.
Speaker 4 (39:42):
Because they have to, they're choosing to dinaloge I got
to say, is it like a work thing where you
just you away for works us on your own. But
other these people are choosing to do it.
Speaker 7 (39:48):
They're choosing to do it. It's a thing. Have you
done it anyone? Two six nine nine on the text
in the last twelve.
Speaker 4 (39:53):
Months, it's an interesting one for me. I don't like
my own company.
Speaker 7 (39:56):
Yeah, I don't like it either, And also I will
do it if I'm forced to. But I think if
I was forced to eat alone, I wouldn't be going
to a restaurant.
Speaker 4 (40:11):
I don't treat myself to find dining. If I'm going
alone alone a week, like.
Speaker 7 (40:16):
A dirty max carry or something in my room.
Speaker 4 (40:18):
You're on the same I'll be back in my room.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
What do you do at the restaurant? But I'm doing
it express. I'm not sitting there like, all right, light
a candle, let's go.
Speaker 4 (40:29):
I was at a nice restaurant and instead they put
you in the corner. And then it's awful because we
need this cheer anymore.
Speaker 1 (40:35):
No, No, it comes up to the one remaining.
Speaker 4 (40:38):
Ship when they say that Christian how many? So you're like,
it's just me, someone to join you.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
No, you sit down solo and just keep looking around
as if someone's coming.
Speaker 4 (40:52):
At some point, you have to really disappointedly they removed
the chairs.
Speaker 7 (40:59):
Dinner by there.
Speaker 4 (41:01):
That's huge that they're choosing to do this.
Speaker 1 (41:02):
I think it's a sad indictment on ourselves if we
can't go and I am totally guilty of this, if
we can't go to a restaurant and feel comfortable sitting
there on our own. And I would like to challenge
that sixty eight percent and say you do that now
and give me your phone.
Speaker 4 (41:18):
You do that.
Speaker 7 (41:19):
Without your phone and least see how you go.
Speaker 4 (41:22):
Maybe it's a different perspectives.
Speaker 3 (41:24):
Maybe the younger generation don't feel like they're alone when
they've got their phone. You know, they're sitting there dining
with their friends.
Speaker 7 (41:29):
Well that's what I'm saying, So you're not really alone.
So I reckon we should test this theory.
Speaker 1 (41:33):
I think the three of us should individually have to
go to dinner and stay for at least an hour
with no fun.
Speaker 4 (41:41):
I did a school pick ups yesterday and I leased
my phone on home and I got there a few
minutes earlier and went, hell do I do it? I
know what I would do, scrolling.
Speaker 3 (41:47):
G masticated chew every piece of twenty six times.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
I would be reading the menu over and over, I reckon,
can't decide still you order four minutes ago?
Speaker 4 (41:57):
I still as well, I reckon.
Speaker 1 (41:58):
I'd just be like, can you give me the drinks,
dessert and made menu? And then I just systematically go
to them all.
Speaker 4 (42:04):
If you do that, I mean I speak people who
can do that. I couldn't. But if you are heavy
on your own skin and you can do that and
feel comfortable, that go you.
Speaker 7 (42:11):
Yeah, And what do you do if you're not scrolling
your phone? What are you actually doing? Are you sitting
here meditating?
Speaker 6 (42:16):
All? Like?
Speaker 4 (42:16):
How does at work?
Speaker 7 (42:17):
Because I'm really liked to know what this what's.
Speaker 3 (42:19):
Wrong with the world as well as we can't just
sit there in the comfort of a restaurant anymore and
enjoy our food.
Speaker 4 (42:24):
I know what I would do.
Speaker 7 (42:25):
I would do without the conversation.
Speaker 1 (42:27):
I would be seven wines deep after five minutes to.
Speaker 4 (42:31):
Stumble out of the restaurant. She's good, guys, he's drinking
alone again.
Speaker 2 (42:39):
