Nikki Works has a delicious sounding mango 14 00:01:18,773 --> 00:01:21,773 Speaker 2: ice cream recipe for us. This morning and after ten, 15 00:01:21,853 --> 00:01:25,453 Speaker 2: we celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the Black Seeds album, 16 00:01:25,573 --> 00:01:28,813 Speaker 2: their breakthrough album, You Could Say On the Sun. Black 17 00:01:28,853 --> 00:01:36,893 Speaker 2: Seeds member Dan Wheatman joins us. Francesca so I started 18 00:01:36,933 --> 00:01:39,773 Speaker 2: counting headlines about Air New Zealand two weeks ago after 19 00:01:39,813 --> 00:01:42,253 Speaker 2: my flight from Nelson to Auckland was delayed by about 20 00:01:42,293 --> 00:01:45,133 Speaker 2: an hour. Then last Saturday, my partner flight from Napier 21 00:01:45,133 --> 00:01:48,213 Speaker 2: to Auckland was delayed after a bird strike. Neither delay 22 00:01:48,253 --> 00:01:52,013 Speaker 2: were hugely consequential, just a little bit irritating, but since 23 00:01:52,053 --> 00:01:54,693 Speaker 2: then there've been a number of press articles about issues 24 00:01:54,733 --> 00:01:57,333 Speaker 2: with planes. On the thirtieth and November and Air New 25 00:01:57,413 --> 00:01:59,373 Speaker 2: Zealand planes sat on the tarmac in Hong Kong for 26 00:01:59,453 --> 00:02:01,933 Speaker 2: hours before being canned after a fuel fould and then 27 00:02:01,973 --> 00:02:04,413 Speaker 2: Crui sickness, and Air New Zealand flight from Wellington to 28 00:02:04,453 --> 00:02:06,933 Speaker 2: Sydney was diverted to Auckland on the first to December 29 00:02:06,973 --> 00:02:09,933 Speaker 2: after engine problems, and a flight from Gisbon to Auckland 30 00:02:10,053 --> 00:02:13,613 Speaker 2: on December the second returned to Gisbon after engine problems. 31 00:02:14,413 --> 00:02:17,093 Speaker 2: The plan landed safely after shutting down an engine shortly 32 00:02:17,133 --> 00:02:21,773 Speaker 2: after departure. Investigations are underway for both engine issues. Anecdotally, 33 00:02:22,053 --> 00:02:25,213 Speaker 2: you don't have to search too hard to find someone 34 00:02:25,253 --> 00:02:27,813 Speaker 2: who'll share a story of a flight delayed or canceled, 35 00:02:28,093 --> 00:02:30,653 Speaker 2: often at the last minute. So it got me wondering 36 00:02:31,813 --> 00:02:35,733 Speaker 2: if we're experiencing more incidents, delays and cancellations than before. 37 00:02:36,013 --> 00:02:39,813 Speaker 2: Are we so are we experiencing more or are we 38 00:02:39,933 --> 00:02:44,133 Speaker 2: just complaining more? Do we feel we can complain more 39 00:02:44,173 --> 00:02:47,533 Speaker 2: because quite often we're paying good money to fly around 40 00:02:47,533 --> 00:02:50,973 Speaker 2: our little country. Recent figures released by the Ministry of 41 00:02:50,973 --> 00:02:54,053 Speaker 2: Transport which compared Jetstar and Air New Zealand services on 42 00:02:54,093 --> 00:02:57,133 Speaker 2: the main trunk jet routes that they compete on, so 43 00:02:57,253 --> 00:02:59,893 Speaker 2: that in September this year, Air New Zealand recorded eighty 44 00:03:00,413 --> 00:03:04,133 Speaker 2: eighty point four percent for on time departase that was 45 00:03:04,173 --> 00:03:06,853 Speaker 2: within fifteen minutes of schedule, and Jet Star was on 46 00:03:06,933 --> 00:03:10,893 Speaker 2: seventy eight percent. For on time arrivals, Air New Zealand 47 00:03:10,893 --> 00:03:14,573 Speaker 2: recorded eighty two point one percent, Jetstar eighty point six. 48 00:03:15,293 --> 00:03:17,133 Speaker 2: But in January this year, Air New Zealand was sitting 49 00:03:17,173 --> 00:03:21,013 Speaker 2: at eighty eight percent. It dropped to seventy seven percent 50 00:03:21,013 --> 00:03:24,653 Speaker 2: in March this year, so reliability has fluctuated throughout the year. 51 00:03:25,453 --> 00:03:28,373 Speaker 2: Another interesting figure, Air New Zealand's cancelation rate was one 52 00:03:28,373 --> 00:03:31,533 Speaker 2: point four percent, more than twice Jet Stars which was 53 00:03:31,613 --> 00:03:34,653 Speaker 2: zero point six percent. So yeah, the stats could be better. 54 00:03:35,053 --> 00:03:38,293 Speaker 2: We all accept airlines can't control weather that Air New 55 00:03:38,373 --> 00:03:41,613 Speaker 2: Zealand has had other issues to grapple with planes out 56 00:03:41,613 --> 00:03:44,693 Speaker 2: of action due to high global demand for engine maintenance 57 00:03:44,973 --> 00:03:46,933 Speaker 2: meant that ten jets were out of service in the 58 00:03:46,973 --> 00:03:49,693 Speaker 2: first half of this financial year. It's not expected that 59 00:03:49,733 --> 00:03:52,533 Speaker 2: this will be sorted until twenty twenty six. On top 60 00:03:52,533 --> 00:03:54,693 Speaker 2: of this, the travel market has been a mixed bag, 61 00:03:54,973 --> 00:03:57,773 Speaker 2: leading the airline to announce this week, Oh let's see, 62 00:03:57,773 --> 00:04:00,213 Speaker 2: I stopped counting the headlines. By this point they will 63 00:04:00,213 --> 00:04:03,253 Speaker 2: be running fewer flights on some domestic routes in twenty 64 00:04:03,293 --> 00:04:05,733 Speaker 2: twenty five. Who knows what this will do to the prices. 65 00:04:07,013 --> 00:04:10,173 Speaker 2: A one point four percent cancelation rate is actually tiny 66 00:04:10,213 --> 00:04:12,373 Speaker 2: in the overall scheme of things, but when combined with 67 00:04:12,413 --> 00:04:15,053 Speaker 2: all the other disruptions and the high prices, Air New 68 00:04:15,133 --> 00:04:18,213 Speaker 2: Zealand has its challenges cut out for them. For so 69 00:04:18,533 --> 00:04:21,333 Speaker 2: long they have been a beloved New Zealand brand, but 70 00:04:21,413 --> 00:04:24,853 Speaker 2: since COVID it's been like pushing a dreamliner uphill. Have 71 00:04:25,053 --> 00:04:28,493 Speaker 2: you run out of patience? Yet? The Air New Zealand 72 00:04:28,573 --> 00:04:32,453 Speaker 2: service and staff may be fabulous, but as long as 73 00:04:32,493 --> 00:04:36,973 Speaker 2: the fleet and financials remains under pressure, it looks like 74 00:04:37,213 --> 00:04:40,733 Speaker 2: it'll be difficult to quiet those headlines for a while. 75 00:04:40,813 --> 00:04:46,653 Speaker 2: Yet Francisco, So I am curious to hear from you 76 00:04:46,813 --> 00:04:49,693 Speaker 2: whether you have run out of patients. I actually flew 77 00:04:49,773 --> 00:04:53,813 Speaker 2: Jetstar recently to a funeral basically because it was, you know, 78 00:04:53,853 --> 00:04:56,253 Speaker 2: having to buy a ticket at a short notice, and 79 00:04:56,293 --> 00:04:59,893 Speaker 2: it was considerably cheaper, but it was risky. It was 80 00:04:59,893 --> 00:05:02,253 Speaker 2: a really time. It was a really type frame. I 81 00:05:02,293 --> 00:05:04,253 Speaker 2: was flying in an hour before the funeral started, and 82 00:05:04,293 --> 00:05:06,253 Speaker 2: I thought, oh, this is not going to go well. 83 00:05:06,653 --> 00:05:11,213 Speaker 2: But I was on the ground five minutes earlier than anticipated, 84 00:05:11,613 --> 00:05:14,413 Speaker 2: and I had the same experience returning home. I've always 85 00:05:14,413 --> 00:05:17,653 Speaker 2: been hugely loyal. I've always really enjoyed supporting a New Zealand. 86 00:05:17,653 --> 00:05:19,893 Speaker 2: But I'm at the point now where I am going 87 00:05:19,893 --> 00:05:22,853 Speaker 2: to shop around keen to hear from you. Ninety two 88 00:05:23,173 --> 00:05:26,653 Speaker 2: ninety two. It is twelve past nine News Talks. 89 00:05:26,653 --> 00:05:30,013 Speaker 1: There'd be no better way to kick off your weekend 90 00:05:30,333 --> 00:05:34,333 Speaker 1: than with Francesco Saturday Mornings with Francesca Rudkin in for 91 00:05:34,533 --> 00:05:38,693 Speaker 1: Jack Taime and Be Pure Quality Supplements for Essential Energy. 92 00:05:38,493 --> 00:05:42,773 Speaker 2: News Talks at b and as always here on Saturday mornings, 93 00:05:42,773 --> 00:05:45,053 Speaker 2: we'd like to kick off the little dose of Kevin 94 00:05:45,093 --> 00:05:46,013 Speaker 2: Melaney joined us. 95 00:05:45,973 --> 00:05:50,053 Speaker 3: Now, Good morning, Good morning, Francesca. Yes, I have run 96 00:05:50,093 --> 00:05:53,053 Speaker 3: out of patience. I have run out of patience. I 97 00:05:53,133 --> 00:05:55,573 Speaker 3: ran out of patients years ago when actually in New 98 00:05:55,653 --> 00:06:00,573 Speaker 3: Zealand held an open day at the Carpety Airport PA, 99 00:06:02,693 --> 00:06:08,173 Speaker 3: and then the following week pulled out had about So 100 00:06:08,253 --> 00:06:13,373 Speaker 3: it was, yeah, weird behavior. 101 00:06:13,453 --> 00:06:16,053 Speaker 2: Really, I'm a bit of a slow adapter and I'm 102 00:06:16,173 --> 00:06:18,173 Speaker 2: ridiculously loyal. I've been saying I'm going to leave my 103 00:06:18,213 --> 00:06:20,133 Speaker 2: bank as well for thirty five years, Kevin. 104 00:06:20,973 --> 00:06:25,573 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm ridiculously loyal within New Zealand. I thought in 105 00:06:26,013 --> 00:06:28,733 Speaker 4: the good old days, when they're putting out those wonderful lads, 106 00:06:29,093 --> 00:06:31,253 Speaker 4: I thought they were really. 107 00:06:31,013 --> 00:06:32,453 Speaker 3: My favorite New Zealand firm. 108 00:06:32,573 --> 00:06:33,093 Speaker 5: Yeah, and. 109 00:06:35,213 --> 00:06:39,253 Speaker 3: Things have just gone rapidly downhill, as you pointed out. 110 00:06:39,613 --> 00:06:44,133 Speaker 3: And at the same time, I think Jets have lifted 111 00:06:44,133 --> 00:06:47,373 Speaker 3: their acts so much, as you say, they're so much 112 00:06:47,493 --> 00:06:51,893 Speaker 3: cheaper on some clients. Definitely worth shopping around now. 113 00:06:52,013 --> 00:06:54,693 Speaker 2: And look, and I feel for anything on because it 114 00:06:54,733 --> 00:06:59,693 Speaker 2: does look like a whole lot of completely unrelated issues 115 00:06:59,733 --> 00:07:01,933 Speaker 2: have all kind of come at them all at once. 116 00:07:01,973 --> 00:07:04,453 Speaker 2: I mean, it's just been a very unfortunate sort of 117 00:07:04,493 --> 00:07:07,013 Speaker 2: collision of a whole lot of issue choose and then 118 00:07:07,013 --> 00:07:09,133 Speaker 2: you throw COVID on top of it, so it is 119 00:07:09,173 --> 00:07:11,013 Speaker 2: really difficult. I just don't think they're going to get 120 00:07:11,013 --> 00:07:15,773 Speaker 2: out of it in a hurry unfortunately. Anyway, let's talk 121 00:07:16,093 --> 00:07:19,533 Speaker 2: about some edgy art that you've recently gave. 122 00:07:19,493 --> 00:07:24,253 Speaker 3: On the Higher Matters Pleasure on the Saturday, because I 123 00:07:24,333 --> 00:07:28,173 Speaker 3: want to talk about art, which I suspect also an 124 00:07:28,213 --> 00:07:31,253 Speaker 3: interest of yours. I may be wrong what it is, 125 00:07:31,413 --> 00:07:31,893 Speaker 3: No it is. 126 00:07:32,213 --> 00:07:35,773 Speaker 2: I do have a degree in art history and a 127 00:07:35,813 --> 00:07:37,573 Speaker 2: few other things I've never got around to using. 128 00:07:39,813 --> 00:07:44,013 Speaker 3: This week I saw the huge and impressive Banks the 129 00:07:44,053 --> 00:07:50,173 Speaker 3: exhibition that the New Wellington Convention Center. Banks has done 130 00:07:50,213 --> 00:07:54,933 Speaker 3: some sort of bad stuff that most people wouldn't approve of, 131 00:07:55,573 --> 00:08:01,373 Speaker 3: like one exhibition painting live animals, at another releasing two 132 00:08:01,453 --> 00:08:04,333 Speaker 3: hundred rats onto the flor just before the doors opened. 133 00:08:04,973 --> 00:08:08,573 Speaker 3: You could take your choice, go or go home. I'd 134 00:08:08,613 --> 00:08:13,253 Speaker 3: have gone. I'd have gone home. Yet I discovered at 135 00:08:13,253 --> 00:08:17,573 Speaker 3: the art of Banksy the guy is so wonderfully talented, 136 00:08:18,573 --> 00:08:21,893 Speaker 3: almost as good a writer and ideas man as a 137 00:08:21,893 --> 00:08:26,933 Speaker 3: street artist. Funnily enough, the week before I'd bought an 138 00:08:26,933 --> 00:08:31,333 Speaker 3: oil painting by a former New Zealand Krim Simon Kerr. 139 00:08:32,053 --> 00:08:34,253 Speaker 3: Simon was the leader of the Hole on Wall gang 140 00:08:34,293 --> 00:08:39,333 Speaker 3: that broke into banks and rated atm machines. He also 141 00:08:39,413 --> 00:08:42,853 Speaker 3: became famous for leading prisoner riots on the roof of 142 00:08:43,133 --> 00:08:47,333 Speaker 3: Mount Eden Jail. Simon did a long stretch in prison 143 00:08:47,693 --> 00:08:51,253 Speaker 3: where he discovered he had a talent for painting. I 144 00:08:51,293 --> 00:08:54,773 Speaker 3: think his works fabulous, and I couldn't resist buying his 145 00:08:54,933 --> 00:09:00,453 Speaker 3: portrait of himself as the pirate Blackbeard. Now this large 146 00:09:00,453 --> 00:09:04,253 Speaker 3: oil painting and our hangs in our lounge inviting guests 147 00:09:04,293 --> 00:09:07,133 Speaker 3: to put a side to Corum and let fly with 148 00:09:07,493 --> 00:09:09,693 Speaker 3: why the hell have you got that painting of black 149 00:09:09,733 --> 00:09:13,013 Speaker 3: Bed in here? And why do you support ex bank robbers? 150 00:09:14,613 --> 00:09:18,093 Speaker 3: And so you see my link between him and Banksy 151 00:09:18,173 --> 00:09:21,053 Speaker 3: in a way. I don't know how you answer a 152 00:09:21,133 --> 00:09:23,653 Speaker 3: question like that. It's a question intended as a statement, 153 00:09:23,733 --> 00:09:24,053 Speaker 3: isn't it. 154 00:09:25,573 --> 00:09:27,533 Speaker 2: I was going to ask what the answer was. 155 00:09:28,573 --> 00:09:32,973 Speaker 3: Yeah, well I had the answer here at the Banksy exhibition. 156 00:09:33,133 --> 00:09:39,453 Speaker 3: Banksy himself quotes no less than eleanor Roosevelt quote the 157 00:09:39,573 --> 00:09:43,493 Speaker 3: role of art is to comfort the disturbed and disturb 158 00:09:43,653 --> 00:09:48,773 Speaker 3: the comfortable. Perfect I reckon, if anyone comes to our 159 00:09:48,773 --> 00:09:51,653 Speaker 3: place and wants to complain about the art, they will 160 00:09:51,693 --> 00:09:55,893 Speaker 3: hear the role of art is the comfort the disturbed 161 00:09:56,453 --> 00:09:58,253 Speaker 3: and disturbed the comfortable. 162 00:09:58,933 --> 00:09:59,933 Speaker 4: Do you like that quote? 163 00:10:00,533 --> 00:10:00,813 Speaker 1: I do? 164 00:10:00,933 --> 00:10:06,373 Speaker 2: Which one is it doing more for you? 165 00:10:07,733 --> 00:10:10,933 Speaker 3: I'm actually, in a way, I'm slightly pleasantly surprised at 166 00:10:10,973 --> 00:10:16,813 Speaker 3: people's open attitude to that picture of Simon k it's 167 00:10:16,893 --> 00:10:19,973 Speaker 3: really a picture of black Beard. Have you seen that 168 00:10:19,973 --> 00:10:20,653 Speaker 3: by any chance? 169 00:10:21,253 --> 00:10:21,413 Speaker 6: No? 170 00:10:21,493 --> 00:10:23,333 Speaker 2: I haven't. But I think the thing to remember is 171 00:10:23,373 --> 00:10:27,973 Speaker 2: that Simon's you know, his his his history, his his 172 00:10:28,173 --> 00:10:31,493 Speaker 2: story is really interesting. But the art has to sort 173 00:10:31,493 --> 00:10:33,533 Speaker 2: of speak for itself, doesn't it. It has to be as 174 00:10:34,053 --> 00:10:38,893 Speaker 2: you know, it has to be. It's the work that matters, 175 00:10:38,933 --> 00:10:41,933 Speaker 2: I suppose is what I'm trying to say. Is the backstory, 176 00:10:41,973 --> 00:10:44,133 Speaker 2: and his work is really stunning. I mean, I can't 177 00:10:44,173 --> 00:10:46,733 Speaker 2: imagine what it would be like the big scale, aren't. 178 00:10:46,533 --> 00:10:50,293 Speaker 3: They It was a hell of a I actually put 179 00:10:50,293 --> 00:10:53,093 Speaker 3: it on. I did a real man thing. I was 180 00:10:53,133 --> 00:10:55,973 Speaker 3: on my own and I just had it framed with 181 00:10:56,093 --> 00:10:59,333 Speaker 3: a large, heavy frame, and I tried to put it 182 00:10:59,373 --> 00:11:02,013 Speaker 3: on the wall, on the bums up and managed to 183 00:11:02,053 --> 00:11:08,693 Speaker 3: do it. But my back's now a bit and it 184 00:11:08,733 --> 00:11:12,213 Speaker 3: could easily have ended in the most appalling disaster you 185 00:11:12,293 --> 00:11:14,653 Speaker 3: just need, which would have taken out the painting quite 186 00:11:14,653 --> 00:11:19,133 Speaker 3: a lot of my wife's favorite crockery. Why do men 187 00:11:19,213 --> 00:11:23,533 Speaker 3: do these sorts of things? I found the something I 188 00:11:23,613 --> 00:11:26,573 Speaker 3: knew all the time. Wait for somebody to come home 189 00:11:26,973 --> 00:11:27,533 Speaker 3: that are they? 190 00:11:28,133 --> 00:11:32,773 Speaker 2: Well, now you can just sit and enjoy your extraoriny 191 00:11:32,853 --> 00:11:35,573 Speaker 2: new piece of art.

It looks like a lovely day 251 00:14:37,853 --> 00:14:39,653 Speaker 2: in Wellington at the Basin Reserve. 252 00:14:40,493 --> 00:14:43,133 Speaker 4: I think the black Cats would have been praying for 253 00:14:43,253 --> 00:14:47,533 Speaker 4: rain overnight coming tomorrow one of those I have one 254 00:14:47,573 --> 00:14:50,333 Speaker 4: of those Wellington Southerly's tear through. They're not in a 255 00:14:50,333 --> 00:14:54,213 Speaker 4: great position. In fact, the Test may well only last 256 00:14:54,293 --> 00:14:56,813 Speaker 4: three days, which is happening a lot in Test match 257 00:14:56,853 --> 00:15:00,533 Speaker 4: cricket these days. We have a really get a Test 258 00:15:00,573 --> 00:15:03,733 Speaker 4: match that goes five days because the way teams play 259 00:15:03,733 --> 00:15:07,133 Speaker 4: attacking cricket. But yeah, the black Caps in trouble. Around 260 00:15:07,213 --> 00:15:11,413 Speaker 4: two hundred still behind England and they've only got a 261 00:15:11,413 --> 00:15:15,173 Speaker 4: handful of wickets left in their first inning. So such 262 00:15:15,613 --> 00:15:18,933 Speaker 4: promising start yesterday, But like christ Church where the black 263 00:15:18,933 --> 00:15:22,253 Speaker 4: Caps bowlers got stuck into the English top order, then 264 00:15:22,333 --> 00:15:25,333 Speaker 4: the English fought back posted a half decent score and 265 00:15:25,373 --> 00:15:28,813 Speaker 4: then they've they've taken the top off the New Zealand 266 00:15:29,293 --> 00:15:32,373 Speaker 4: batting orders. So I'll tell you what though, The positive 267 00:15:32,413 --> 00:15:34,373 Speaker 4: is Francisca that if you paid to go and watch 268 00:15:34,453 --> 00:15:36,333 Speaker 4: yesterday at the base and you've got a heat of 269 00:15:36,373 --> 00:15:41,213 Speaker 4: a lot of cricket, you sure for your dollar yesterday 270 00:15:41,253 --> 00:15:43,333 Speaker 4: a lot of action, a lot of wickets, low runs. 271 00:15:43,813 --> 00:15:45,693 Speaker 2: Can the black Caps fight back to day thing. 272 00:15:46,933 --> 00:15:51,933 Speaker 4: Well, they've got a few batsmen left capable of half 273 00:15:51,973 --> 00:15:54,413 Speaker 4: decent scores at a Test match level. But this English 274 00:15:54,493 --> 00:15:59,133 Speaker 4: bowling attacks been bowling well, led by Ben Stokes and co. 275 00:16:00,653 --> 00:16:04,533 Speaker 4: So they need to get at least another one hundred 276 00:16:04,573 --> 00:16:07,213 Speaker 4: and one fifty. I don't think that all happened. Be 277 00:16:07,293 --> 00:16:09,533 Speaker 4: surprised if it did, and then the English will come 278 00:16:09,573 --> 00:16:12,173 Speaker 4: in and it's up to the New Zealand bowlers to 279 00:16:12,213 --> 00:16:14,973 Speaker 4: try and get stuck into them again. But I think 280 00:16:15,613 --> 00:16:17,333 Speaker 4: by the looks of things after just one day, it 281 00:16:17,333 --> 00:16:20,293 Speaker 4: looks as England rull and truly in the box seat, 282 00:16:20,333 --> 00:16:22,933 Speaker 4: and which would mean if they go through and win, 283 00:16:22,973 --> 00:16:25,333 Speaker 4: they've already won the series two. So with that food 284 00:16:25,373 --> 00:16:29,413 Speaker 4: Test to come in Hamilton. Okay, So the promising signs 285 00:16:29,413 --> 00:16:33,413 Speaker 4: we saw in India, Yeah, well that amazing historic away 286 00:16:33,773 --> 00:16:36,453 Speaker 4: series win in India now seems but a distant memory. 287 00:16:36,533 --> 00:16:39,053 Speaker 2: Oh not at all. Just hold it, hold on tightly 288 00:16:39,093 --> 00:16:44,893 Speaker 2: to it, Andrew, Hey, he try, you know, keep the 289 00:16:44,893 --> 00:16:48,973 Speaker 2: best memories alive. If it does. Yes, if it rains tomorrow. 290 00:16:49,293 --> 00:16:54,653 Speaker 2: What did the black Caps need to do today? Okay? 291 00:16:55,413 --> 00:16:58,373 Speaker 4: Yeah, hang on, score a few runs, try and eke 292 00:16:58,413 --> 00:17:00,293 Speaker 4: out like I say one hundred and one fifty and 293 00:17:00,333 --> 00:17:03,853 Speaker 4: then and then hope that their bowlers can bowling them 294 00:17:03,893 --> 00:17:06,093 Speaker 4: out rather cheaply. That's that's the only hope I've got. 295 00:17:06,133 --> 00:17:09,293 Speaker 4: You know, it's never Test match cricket, never over until 296 00:17:09,333 --> 00:17:12,893 Speaker 4: it's over. There's always a glimmer of hope. So we'll see. 297 00:17:12,933 --> 00:17:15,093 Speaker 4: That's what makes it so intrigue. And still, you know, 298 00:17:15,293 --> 00:17:17,413 Speaker 4: a great sport for a lot of people, not everybody, 299 00:17:17,573 --> 00:17:19,053 Speaker 4: a great sport for a lot of people to watch. 300 00:17:19,253 --> 00:17:20,893 Speaker 2: I love it. There we go a bit of optimism 301 00:17:20,973 --> 00:17:22,733 Speaker 2: to end on. So of course that day two kicks 302 00:17:22,773 --> 00:17:25,773 Speaker 2: off at eleven am this morning and at five pm 303 00:17:25,853 --> 00:17:28,773 Speaker 2: this afternoon. It is all go At Go Media Stadium, 304 00:17:28,813 --> 00:17:29,133 Speaker 2: isn't it. 305 00:17:29,893 --> 00:17:34,013 Speaker 4: Yeah? Mount Smart can't wait. It's a relatively fine day 306 00:17:34,053 --> 00:17:38,373 Speaker 4: in Auckland, a little bit overcast but warm. Great kickoff time. 307 00:17:39,253 --> 00:17:43,813 Speaker 4: The Auckland FC management made it very clear when they 308 00:17:43,813 --> 00:17:45,893 Speaker 4: were building this club that they wanted sort of late 309 00:17:45,893 --> 00:17:50,013 Speaker 4: afternoon kickoffs for families, primarily so the game would be 310 00:17:50,053 --> 00:17:51,853 Speaker 4: finished by seven at the latest and then you could 311 00:17:51,933 --> 00:17:54,053 Speaker 4: either go out for dinner afterwards or go home. So 312 00:17:54,333 --> 00:17:59,813 Speaker 4: great move, big big crowd there tonight, sold out twenty 313 00:17:59,973 --> 00:18:04,893 Speaker 4: five twenty six thousand, biggest New Zealand A League crowd 314 00:18:04,973 --> 00:18:10,213 Speaker 4: in history, and already it's quite amazing, Francesca, isn't it 315 00:18:10,253 --> 00:18:13,933 Speaker 4: already after ten twelve months of life. There's there's bite 316 00:18:14,013 --> 00:18:17,533 Speaker 4: between Auckland f C and Wellington Phoenix. There's feeling between 317 00:18:17,573 --> 00:18:21,213 Speaker 4: their fans. Auckland f C already have a group of 318 00:18:21,253 --> 00:18:27,893 Speaker 4: hardcore fans that behind that Southern goal every match it's been. 319 00:18:28,093 --> 00:18:31,733 Speaker 4: It has been quite a remarkable build of this club, 320 00:18:31,813 --> 00:18:34,333 Speaker 4: construction of this club, and quite a remarkable run so far. 321 00:18:34,453 --> 00:18:39,773 Speaker 4: Five games, five wins, no goals conceded. So looking forward 322 00:18:39,773 --> 00:18:40,653 Speaker 4: to this game. 323 00:18:40,933 --> 00:18:45,773 Speaker 2: I'm really taken back, Andrew at how this team has 324 00:18:45,973 --> 00:18:49,693 Speaker 2: just exploded. It's not We've had other teams join the 325 00:18:49,693 --> 00:18:51,973 Speaker 2: A League and you know they're lucky to get three 326 00:18:52,013 --> 00:18:55,413 Speaker 2: thousand people along to watch them. Yeah, it's like, I'm 327 00:18:55,453 --> 00:18:57,253 Speaker 2: really taken back and I did not I did not 328 00:18:57,293 --> 00:18:58,813 Speaker 2: anticipate this and I didn't read the room. 329 00:18:59,133 --> 00:19:01,093 Speaker 9: I think it's just started. 330 00:19:01,733 --> 00:19:04,213 Speaker 4: It's just yeah, there's a number of factors. I think 331 00:19:04,533 --> 00:19:07,853 Speaker 4: they've got some big backers behind them, which number one helps. 332 00:19:07,973 --> 00:19:10,613 Speaker 4: You've got to win on the field. Yes, they have 333 00:19:11,013 --> 00:19:14,693 Speaker 4: very good management, They've got a well constructed team and 334 00:19:14,773 --> 00:19:17,373 Speaker 4: let's not forget you know, you think about the Warriors 335 00:19:17,413 --> 00:19:20,893 Speaker 4: twenty five thirty years ago. They had two or three 336 00:19:21,013 --> 00:19:24,773 Speaker 4: years to form as a club and to recruit players 337 00:19:24,773 --> 00:19:27,693 Speaker 4: and to get everything in order. That Kulc's had ten 338 00:19:27,773 --> 00:19:32,413 Speaker 4: months so to scour the world and come up with 339 00:19:32,453 --> 00:19:35,093 Speaker 4: five or six im book players of a certain standard 340 00:19:35,173 --> 00:19:38,413 Speaker 4: and good footballers, good people, and then sign a lot 341 00:19:38,453 --> 00:19:40,453 Speaker 4: of kiwis as well, and look to the future to 342 00:19:40,493 --> 00:19:44,373 Speaker 4: develop New Zealand players. It's been it's been a rapid 343 00:19:44,453 --> 00:19:46,773 Speaker 4: rise and it's been quite remarkable. The Phoenix, on the 344 00:19:46,853 --> 00:19:49,093 Speaker 4: other hand, they do have a chance today. They've been 345 00:19:49,133 --> 00:19:51,213 Speaker 4: playing some pretty good football though we well and truly 346 00:19:51,253 --> 00:19:54,093 Speaker 4: motivated after they got beaten home in the first local 347 00:19:54,133 --> 00:19:56,733 Speaker 4: derby a few weeks ago, so it should be a 348 00:19:56,733 --> 00:19:58,853 Speaker 4: crackible match. But I think what Auckland have c has 349 00:19:58,893 --> 00:20:01,253 Speaker 4: done so far, you know, the merchandise sold out in 350 00:20:01,253 --> 00:20:05,453 Speaker 4: the heartbeat, tickets going through the roof. Even last week 351 00:20:05,453 --> 00:20:10,213 Speaker 4: in terrible weather conditions in Auckland, ten fifteen thousand still 352 00:20:10,733 --> 00:20:12,293 Speaker 4: turned up. So I think they've done a great job 353 00:20:12,333 --> 00:20:15,373 Speaker 4: so far. Will it continue, probably not. It would be 354 00:20:15,413 --> 00:20:17,573 Speaker 4: a major, major surprise if they kept on and on 355 00:20:17,613 --> 00:20:20,733 Speaker 4: and on winning all games. But it's been a great start. 356 00:20:20,893 --> 00:20:23,533 Speaker 2: Oh, it's been a fantastic start. Thanks so much, Andrew. 357 00:20:23,933 --> 00:20:25,173 Speaker 2: Appreciate your time today. 358 00:20:26,253 --> 00:20:26,453 Speaker 3: Right. 359 00:20:26,533 --> 00:20:29,013 Speaker 2: If you love Hugh Grant and you do not want 360 00:20:29,053 --> 00:20:32,493 Speaker 2: to watch Love Actually Again, you might want to watch 361 00:20:32,533 --> 00:20:36,453 Speaker 2: his new film. It's called Heretic. He plays. It's a 362 00:20:36,493 --> 00:20:39,413 Speaker 2: horror film though an our sixteen horror film, and he 363 00:20:39,493 --> 00:20:43,013 Speaker 2: plays the villain, which is very much against type. This 364 00:20:43,093 --> 00:20:44,493 Speaker 2: is the first time he's had a role like this. 365 00:20:45,013 --> 00:20:48,053 Speaker 2: So just how good is this a film? Chris Schultz 366 00:20:48,093 --> 00:20:51,653 Speaker 2: with his verdict next here, next here on Saturday mornings 367 00:20:51,653 --> 00:20:54,733 Speaker 2: twenty seven to ten times out. 368 00:20:56,093 --> 00:21:04,213 Speaker 10: Take it Away to the dark Side Your. 369 00:21:04,253 --> 00:21:07,053 Speaker 11: Son I loved Oh. 370 00:21:10,053 --> 00:21:13,213 Speaker 2: So, despite being more than a decade old, this song 371 00:21:13,333 --> 00:21:17,853 Speaker 2: topped the Spotify Rapped charts as the Australian song that 372 00:21:17,973 --> 00:21:21,053 Speaker 2: Ossie's listened to the most this year. The track came 373 00:21:21,053 --> 00:21:23,893 Speaker 2: out in twenty thirteen and it still frequents the number 374 00:21:23,893 --> 00:21:27,893 Speaker 2: one spot on the ARIA charts. To that is staying power, 375 00:21:27,933 --> 00:21:29,773 Speaker 2: isn't it, Folks.

And I actually it's 380 00:21:41,573 --> 00:21:43,653 Speaker 2: all a bit of a mystery my Spotify and rap 381 00:21:43,693 --> 00:21:45,653 Speaker 2: this year. I don't believe I've ever listened to the 382 00:21:45,733 --> 00:21:48,573 Speaker 2: song about a stripper, which turns out to be my 383 00:21:48,653 --> 00:21:52,173 Speaker 2: number one. Maybe more on that later anyway, Joining us 384 00:21:52,213 --> 00:21:55,933 Speaker 2: now to talk movies, Chris Schultz, good morning. 385 00:21:56,213 --> 00:21:57,293 Speaker 7: Good morning, Francesca. 386 00:21:57,373 --> 00:22:00,453 Speaker 12: I'm not revealing my number one either, because my daughter 387 00:22:00,733 --> 00:22:04,733 Speaker 12: hijacks my playlist and it's all Taylor Swifts. 388 00:22:04,773 --> 00:22:08,253 Speaker 2: Okay, well that's that's okay, that's acceptable. Mine was hijacked 389 00:22:08,253 --> 00:22:11,213 Speaker 2: by an eighteen year old boy who likes hip hop, 390 00:22:11,533 --> 00:22:14,133 Speaker 2: and I now have my number one song about a stripper. 391 00:22:14,173 --> 00:22:17,293 Speaker 2: I don't even understand the lyrics. I was just absolutely mortified. 392 00:22:17,333 --> 00:22:19,133 Speaker 2: I was like, who is this? So I go and 393 00:22:19,173 --> 00:22:25,213 Speaker 2: listen to this song and I was just like, holy moly. Anyway, 394 00:22:25,293 --> 00:22:27,813 Speaker 2: let's move on. We're going to talk about heretic. Let's 395 00:22:27,813 --> 00:22:28,893 Speaker 2: have a listen to the trailer. 396 00:22:35,413 --> 00:22:37,333 Speaker 13: Are you interested in learning more about the Church of 397 00:22:37,413 --> 00:22:38,693 Speaker 13: Jesus christis Come on it. 398 00:22:43,893 --> 00:22:45,093 Speaker 2: We just need to go home. 399 00:22:45,613 --> 00:22:48,373 Speaker 1: I won't keep you if you wish to leave, but 400 00:22:48,533 --> 00:22:50,373 Speaker 1: I want you to choose which door to go through 401 00:22:50,413 --> 00:22:51,333 Speaker 1: based on your faith. 402 00:22:55,893 --> 00:22:57,893 Speaker 2: So about this time of the year, Chris, most people 403 00:22:57,893 --> 00:23:00,133 Speaker 2: wouldn't you know, think, oh, yes, I'd love to watch 404 00:23:00,133 --> 00:23:02,893 Speaker 2: a Hugh Grant film. Let's pull out a romantic comedy. 405 00:23:04,853 --> 00:23:05,573 Speaker 7: Totally true. 406 00:23:05,613 --> 00:23:07,933 Speaker 12: That is the wrong time a year to be releasing 407 00:23:07,933 --> 00:23:10,693 Speaker 12: a horror movie. This should have been released two months ago. 408 00:23:10,773 --> 00:23:14,173 Speaker 12: At Halloween. We're all going to the beach, We're celebrating Christmas. 409 00:23:14,213 --> 00:23:17,453 Speaker 12: The Christmas music is on at the malls. Who feels 410 00:23:17,453 --> 00:23:20,813 Speaker 12: like going to a darkened cinema to watch a horror movie? 411 00:23:20,813 --> 00:23:23,453 Speaker 12: But yes, Hugh Grant is in this. This is a 412 00:23:23,573 --> 00:23:25,773 Speaker 12: huge change of pace for him. He's always been the 413 00:23:26,093 --> 00:23:30,533 Speaker 12: dapper English gentleman, the leading man in a rom com. 414 00:23:30,733 --> 00:23:32,253 Speaker 7: But he's been pretty open. 415 00:23:32,093 --> 00:23:34,813 Speaker 12: About Now at sixty four, he's not really getting those 416 00:23:34,893 --> 00:23:36,213 Speaker 12: opportunities anymore. 417 00:23:36,853 --> 00:23:39,173 Speaker 7: So he's doing some weird stuff. We last saw him. 418 00:23:38,973 --> 00:23:42,773 Speaker 12: And Willie Wonka playing an mpolumpa, and here he is 419 00:23:42,813 --> 00:23:47,253 Speaker 12: playing true evil and who knew he's fantastic at it? 420 00:23:47,293 --> 00:23:49,533 Speaker 12: This is the best reason to get to a cinema 421 00:23:49,573 --> 00:23:53,893 Speaker 12: to see heretic Hugh Grant. He's using those tricks. So 422 00:23:53,933 --> 00:23:56,853 Speaker 12: I think that's what makes this so clever. He's using 423 00:23:56,893 --> 00:23:59,373 Speaker 12: those tricks that he used in those rom coms. The 424 00:23:59,413 --> 00:24:05,253 Speaker 12: wry smile, the kind eyes, the very welcoming, gentle kind 425 00:24:05,293 --> 00:24:09,053 Speaker 12: of warmth he has, he wins you over, and then 426 00:24:09,093 --> 00:24:11,573 Speaker 12: in this he's just giving it a twist and he's evil. 427 00:24:11,653 --> 00:24:15,493 Speaker 12: He's playing mister Reed, a kind of creepy man living 428 00:24:15,533 --> 00:24:20,733 Speaker 12: alone who invites two Mormon women, young woman doing God's work, 429 00:24:20,893 --> 00:24:24,533 Speaker 12: spreading the message, into his home and then sort of 430 00:24:25,133 --> 00:24:29,053 Speaker 12: sets these traps for them. I mean, the trailer made 431 00:24:29,093 --> 00:24:32,893 Speaker 12: this look like Sore meets Labyrinth. You know, they sort 432 00:24:32,893 --> 00:24:35,293 Speaker 12: of go on this religious journey. He takes them on 433 00:24:35,333 --> 00:24:38,253 Speaker 12: this kind of cat and mouse journey trying to teach 434 00:24:38,293 --> 00:24:41,493 Speaker 12: them about religion. This film has so much to say, 435 00:24:41,533 --> 00:24:44,293 Speaker 12: almost too much to say about religion. 436 00:24:45,213 --> 00:24:49,693 Speaker 7: The downside of it is the monologues in it. 437 00:24:49,733 --> 00:24:54,093 Speaker 12: They almost overuse Hugh Grant. A little bit less is 438 00:24:54,133 --> 00:24:57,053 Speaker 12: often more in these kinds of movies. But then he 439 00:24:57,093 --> 00:25:00,813 Speaker 12: sort of launches into these monologues about religion and why 440 00:25:00,813 --> 00:25:03,693 Speaker 12: it's wrong, and then he sort of has these metaphors 441 00:25:03,733 --> 00:25:07,933 Speaker 12: where he's using radiohead songs. He sings Radioheads creep, he 442 00:25:08,013 --> 00:25:11,053 Speaker 12: brings in Judge our Binks from Star Wars. There's a 443 00:25:11,053 --> 00:25:15,133 Speaker 12: whole five minute sequence that equates monopoly to religion that 444 00:25:15,173 --> 00:25:17,893 Speaker 12: I'm still kind of getting my head around. So the 445 00:25:17,933 --> 00:25:20,013 Speaker 12: first half of the movie is all set up and 446 00:25:20,053 --> 00:25:22,893 Speaker 12: when you get to the second half, it's great, but 447 00:25:22,933 --> 00:25:24,253 Speaker 12: it just takes a little too. 448 00:25:24,093 --> 00:25:25,093 Speaker 7: Long to get there. 449 00:25:26,133 --> 00:25:28,533 Speaker 12: But Hugh Grant fantastic, I mean, this is I hope 450 00:25:28,533 --> 00:25:29,413 Speaker 12: he does more of this. 451 00:25:29,533 --> 00:25:31,053 Speaker 7: He's he's just so good it. 452 00:25:31,093 --> 00:25:33,213 Speaker 12: I really hope this is like a new thing that 453 00:25:33,293 --> 00:25:35,213 Speaker 12: he's just in like all of the horror movies now, 454 00:25:35,253 --> 00:25:36,373 Speaker 12: because he's so good at it. 455 00:25:37,253 --> 00:25:41,733 Speaker 2: There's something a little bit different, some lighter christmasphere. We're 456 00:25:41,773 --> 00:25:43,653 Speaker 2: going to have it. Listen to the trainer for our 457 00:25:43,733 --> 00:25:46,453 Speaker 2: little secret. Imagine us. 458 00:25:46,693 --> 00:25:49,053 Speaker 14: I'm spending the holidays with my boyfriend's family for the 459 00:25:49,093 --> 00:25:51,293 Speaker 14: first time. 460 00:25:52,253 --> 00:25:52,813 Speaker 2: This is for you. 461 00:25:53,333 --> 00:25:56,293 Speaker 14: Look it's his script talk that's from Easy. 462 00:25:57,453 --> 00:25:57,973 Speaker 15: Here is all. 463 00:25:58,613 --> 00:26:01,253 Speaker 14: He has a lot of family members too many to remember, 464 00:26:01,493 --> 00:26:03,653 Speaker 14: and his sister is also bringing someone I want you 465 00:26:03,693 --> 00:26:04,493 Speaker 14: to meet by. 466 00:26:06,493 --> 00:26:13,373 Speaker 2: My axe busted. So my first question for your here, Chris, 467 00:26:13,453 --> 00:26:14,853 Speaker 2: is did you finish this film. 468 00:26:16,253 --> 00:26:17,453 Speaker 7: That is an excellent question. 469 00:26:17,653 --> 00:26:22,573 Speaker 12: I'm not going to respond I had it on in 470 00:26:22,573 --> 00:26:23,053 Speaker 12: the background. 471 00:26:23,133 --> 00:26:23,773 Speaker 7: Let's put it that way. 472 00:26:23,813 --> 00:26:27,613 Speaker 12: No, there are some bonkers Christmas movies around this year. 473 00:26:27,653 --> 00:26:31,293 Speaker 12: I read one complete box office disaster with Chris Evans 474 00:26:31,293 --> 00:26:34,493 Speaker 12: and the Rock trying to save Center. Hot Frosty, a 475 00:26:34,613 --> 00:26:37,613 Speaker 12: Netflix rom com in which a woman falls in love 476 00:26:37,653 --> 00:26:41,453 Speaker 12: with a ripped snowman who comes to life. But Our 477 00:26:41,453 --> 00:26:45,053 Speaker 12: Little Secret is on Netflix. This might be the weirdest 478 00:26:45,093 --> 00:26:46,773 Speaker 12: one of them all. This is part of the Lindsay 479 00:26:46,773 --> 00:26:51,773 Speaker 12: lohand comeback train that she's on. She's she's made a 480 00:26:51,773 --> 00:26:54,653 Speaker 12: few Netflix movies now she's she's sorted her life out. 481 00:26:54,653 --> 00:26:56,573 Speaker 12: She was a tabloid disaster for a long time, and 482 00:26:56,573 --> 00:26:59,773 Speaker 12: she's she's making movies again. She's actually a pretty good actor. 483 00:26:59,853 --> 00:27:03,053 Speaker 12: She's not the problem with Our Little Secret. The problem 484 00:27:03,133 --> 00:27:08,533 Speaker 12: is kind of everything else. It's just such strange film. 485 00:27:09,013 --> 00:27:13,373 Speaker 12: It's got this weird opening with like they go through 486 00:27:13,413 --> 00:27:18,253 Speaker 12: like ten years of highlights and most of them are 487 00:27:18,293 --> 00:27:22,933 Speaker 12: like Netflix things. There's a weird weed gummy sequence in 488 00:27:22,973 --> 00:27:27,573 Speaker 12: a church. It's about Lindsay Lohan. Her character goes home 489 00:27:27,733 --> 00:27:30,093 Speaker 12: with her new partner to meet the in laws and 490 00:27:30,093 --> 00:27:32,413 Speaker 12: then an X is there from ten years ago, and 491 00:27:32,453 --> 00:27:34,493 Speaker 12: they decide not to tell them that they know each other. 492 00:27:34,533 --> 00:27:37,493 Speaker 12: And obviously this is a rom com, so you can 493 00:27:37,533 --> 00:27:42,093 Speaker 12: see what's going to happen. But it's just it's so strange. 494 00:27:41,813 --> 00:27:45,333 Speaker 12: The characters sort of seem like they're all in different films. 495 00:27:46,173 --> 00:27:48,333 Speaker 12: They yell out lines that just don't make sense. At 496 00:27:48,333 --> 00:27:51,533 Speaker 12: one point, one character yelled out touche, but nothing that 497 00:27:51,573 --> 00:27:53,453 Speaker 12: had been building up to that moment. 498 00:27:54,653 --> 00:27:56,773 Speaker 7: Need like he had no reason to say it. 499 00:27:57,133 --> 00:27:59,293 Speaker 12: So you almost like need to watch this, like you 500 00:27:59,373 --> 00:28:03,013 Speaker 12: watch Tommy Wizzau's of the Room kind of ironically, maybe 501 00:28:03,053 --> 00:28:05,053 Speaker 12: have some drinking games, and I think you could have 502 00:28:05,093 --> 00:28:06,733 Speaker 12: a good time, like if you had a whole bunch 503 00:28:06,773 --> 00:28:09,213 Speaker 12: of friends or family over. Yeah, and you watch this 504 00:28:09,333 --> 00:28:11,813 Speaker 12: because it's almost so bad that it's good. It falls 505 00:28:11,853 --> 00:28:12,973 Speaker 12: into that kind of character. 506 00:28:14,053 --> 00:28:17,653 Speaker 2: It left me asking the question when did Christmas movies 507 00:28:17,693 --> 00:28:21,053 Speaker 2: become all about romance and why? And then I went 508 00:28:21,093 --> 00:28:22,933 Speaker 2: down a rabbit hole and I really didn't get an 509 00:28:22,973 --> 00:28:25,853 Speaker 2: answer for it, except it's the season of love.

This is a pressure to bring home 512 00:28:32,653 --> 00:28:36,693 Speaker 2: a partner, you know, at Christmas time. Basically, I've decided 513 00:28:36,773 --> 00:28:38,293 Speaker 2: Christmas movies don't like single people. 514 00:28:39,173 --> 00:28:41,693 Speaker 12: Yeah, well there is actually a good example, right, Kristen 515 00:28:41,733 --> 00:28:43,973 Speaker 12: Stewart did Happiest Season like four or. 516 00:28:43,973 --> 00:28:44,653 Speaker 7: Five years ago. 517 00:28:44,693 --> 00:28:45,213 Speaker 5: I want to see. 518 00:28:45,373 --> 00:28:49,173 Speaker 7: Yeah, that's a really good Christmas movie.

Text here, 541 00:29:47,333 --> 00:29:49,653 Speaker 2: interesting thing about Air New Zealand flights. I think to 542 00:29:49,733 --> 00:29:52,613 Speaker 2: improve on time stats. Is it a while ago they 543 00:29:52,653 --> 00:29:55,893 Speaker 2: increased some flight times by five to ten minutes. For example, 544 00:29:55,933 --> 00:29:58,093 Speaker 2: Wellington Auckland used to be one hour and is now 545 00:29:58,373 --> 00:30:01,493 Speaker 2: one hour five That is interesting. Thank you for that. 546 00:30:02,013 --> 00:30:04,573 Speaker 2: The text continues. I think for Jetstar it's that they 547 00:30:04,653 --> 00:30:07,493 Speaker 2: have no backup planes or can't change schedules easily with 548 00:30:07,573 --> 00:30:09,493 Speaker 2: the small feat so when they have no problems they 549 00:30:09,533 --> 00:30:12,773 Speaker 2: are fine, but any delay then ricochets throughout the day. 550 00:30:13,013 --> 00:30:16,653 Speaker 2: Thanks for your text, Thomas. Another one here. I'd much 551 00:30:16,733 --> 00:30:18,973 Speaker 2: rather in New Zealand but overcautious with their planes and 552 00:30:19,013 --> 00:30:21,133 Speaker 2: being delayed isn't a problem for me, but I'd be 553 00:30:21,173 --> 00:30:24,253 Speaker 2: pretty upset when we run into trouble thirty thousand feet 554 00:30:24,293 --> 00:30:26,253 Speaker 2: in Yet couldn't agree with you more muss and that's 555 00:30:26,253 --> 00:30:27,893 Speaker 2: why you know when my partner was told, oh, look 556 00:30:27,893 --> 00:30:29,253 Speaker 2: there's been a bird strike. We've got to get someone 557 00:30:29,293 --> 00:30:30,693 Speaker 2: and we've got to make sure it's all fine. We're like, 558 00:30:31,133 --> 00:30:34,373 Speaker 2: take your time. You know, no one wants to get 559 00:30:34,373 --> 00:30:37,213 Speaker 2: on a plane where there could be a potential problem. 560 00:30:37,253 --> 00:30:38,853 Speaker 2: So that and it wasn't a problem, and it was 561 00:30:38,893 --> 00:30:41,213 Speaker 2: just a bit annoying, but you know, Tim got home 562 00:30:41,253 --> 00:30:43,533 Speaker 2: in time for the dance show and everything was you know, 563 00:30:43,733 --> 00:30:45,613 Speaker 2: the world carried on. It really wasn't a big deal. 564 00:30:45,813 --> 00:30:47,573 Speaker 2: So I couldn't agree with you more there. You know, 565 00:30:48,093 --> 00:30:51,733 Speaker 2: we need to make sure that safety comes first. But 566 00:30:51,813 --> 00:30:54,253 Speaker 2: definitely a lot of you are texting just with your stories, 567 00:30:54,333 --> 00:30:58,813 Speaker 2: especially talking about the regions, and without that competition, there 568 00:30:58,813 --> 00:31:01,413 Speaker 2: seems to be a lack of care. At the end 569 00:31:01,453 --> 00:31:03,013 Speaker 2: of the day, they are a company and they are 570 00:31:03,053 --> 00:31:05,093 Speaker 2: there to make money. I don't have a problem, you know, 571 00:31:05,213 --> 00:31:08,413 Speaker 2: obviously supply demand. They've got a whole lot of other issues. 572 00:31:08,413 --> 00:31:12,933 Speaker 2: He spending thirty five million per upgrading each Dreamliner at 573 00:31:12,933 --> 00:31:15,053 Speaker 2: the moment, which is going on a rolling schedule. They've got, 574 00:31:15,213 --> 00:31:17,133 Speaker 2: you know, other things imposed on them that we're out 575 00:31:17,173 --> 00:31:19,093 Speaker 2: of their control. And we do want them to be 576 00:31:19,133 --> 00:31:21,773 Speaker 2: a successful, profitable company, you know, don't have a problem 577 00:31:21,773 --> 00:31:26,093 Speaker 2: with that. I think it just comes down to trying 578 00:31:26,093 --> 00:31:28,933 Speaker 2: to find a way with all these challenges to just 579 00:31:29,053 --> 00:31:33,653 Speaker 2: become more reliable and keep us little Kiwis flying with them. 580 00:31:33,933 --> 00:31:36,413 Speaker 2: And thank you very much for your text.

I don't think I've ever eaten mango ice cream, 588 00:32:03,973 --> 00:32:06,733 Speaker 2: oh my goodness, and I would like me we love 589 00:32:06,773 --> 00:32:10,133 Speaker 2: one right now? Absolutely, yeah, I do. Yeah. 590 00:32:10,133 --> 00:32:13,653 Speaker 16: Look, I thought about this this week because for those 591 00:32:13,693 --> 00:32:15,773 Speaker 16: of us who were sort of unfortunate enough to be 592 00:32:15,773 --> 00:32:19,293 Speaker 16: in Auckland and perhaps other places too, on Thursday of 593 00:32:19,333 --> 00:32:22,413 Speaker 16: this week, two days ago, it was so stinking hot. 594 00:32:22,573 --> 00:32:24,093 Speaker 17: It was just a week ago. 595 00:32:24,133 --> 00:32:26,053 Speaker 16: We were all saying, when a summer going to arrive 596 00:32:26,133 --> 00:32:28,893 Speaker 16: and it's all drizzling and it's cold, Oh my goodness. 597 00:32:28,933 --> 00:32:32,893 Speaker 16: Thursday was a taste of things to come. And I 598 00:32:33,053 --> 00:32:36,653 Speaker 16: ate four mangoes a last week this week that we 599 00:32:36,773 --> 00:32:39,693 Speaker 16: just had because they are so good at the moment, 600 00:32:39,773 --> 00:32:43,173 Speaker 16: available in our supermarkets and fruit shops, and they're just 601 00:32:43,373 --> 00:32:47,773 Speaker 16: at their premium. We're getting these beautiful Australian mangoes. There's 602 00:32:47,773 --> 00:32:51,373 Speaker 16: a couple of varieties, either Calypso or what's my other favorite? 603 00:32:51,693 --> 00:32:54,413 Speaker 16: R two E two, which sounds like something from Star Walls, 604 00:32:54,453 --> 00:32:57,293 Speaker 16: I think. And you know you can get. You can 605 00:32:57,333 --> 00:32:59,533 Speaker 16: get to figure out what your favorite mango is and 606 00:32:59,573 --> 00:33:02,333 Speaker 16: then turn it into this beautiful ice cream. And this 607 00:33:02,453 --> 00:33:04,373 Speaker 16: is so easy. You do need a food process of 608 00:33:04,453 --> 00:33:06,733 Speaker 16: fantasca or a blender. Do you have either one of those? 609 00:33:06,813 --> 00:33:07,373 Speaker 2: Yes? 610 00:33:07,053 --> 00:33:07,653 Speaker 17: I do? 611 00:33:07,853 --> 00:33:11,053 Speaker 16: Then you are okay, okay, all right, you're in Hey. 612 00:33:11,053 --> 00:33:13,013 Speaker 16: Look I call it ice cream, which is a bit 613 00:33:13,053 --> 00:33:15,573 Speaker 16: naughty because ice cream really technically needs to have a 614 00:33:15,573 --> 00:33:17,613 Speaker 16: lot of cream in it. And this, in fact is 615 00:33:17,653 --> 00:33:20,493 Speaker 16: sort of a vegan sort of cheats version just because 616 00:33:20,493 --> 00:33:22,533 Speaker 16: it's easy. What you need is one cup of chopped 617 00:33:22,533 --> 00:33:23,413 Speaker 16: and frozen mango. 618 00:33:23,973 --> 00:33:25,893 Speaker 6: Now I am encouraging. 619 00:33:25,413 --> 00:33:27,413 Speaker 16: You to use fresh mango here, but when they're not 620 00:33:27,613 --> 00:33:31,453 Speaker 16: in season, you can get those wonderful packets of frozen 621 00:33:31,573 --> 00:33:33,973 Speaker 16: mango is fine and also tinned mango works, but it 622 00:33:34,013 --> 00:33:36,533 Speaker 16: needs to be frozen because we're making a frozen delight. 623 00:33:36,573 --> 00:33:39,613 Speaker 16: Here one large banana that's chopped and frozen to and 624 00:33:39,693 --> 00:33:42,453 Speaker 16: I always have those in my freezer. That's you know, 625 00:33:42,453 --> 00:33:44,893 Speaker 16: when the banana gets a little bit old, I either 626 00:33:44,893 --> 00:33:46,853 Speaker 16: turn it into a banana cake or I'll chop it 627 00:33:46,893 --> 00:33:49,813 Speaker 16: up and chuck it in the freezer for smoothies and 628 00:33:49,853 --> 00:33:52,773 Speaker 16: in this case, ice cream. The banana in any fruit, 629 00:33:52,813 --> 00:33:55,893 Speaker 16: ice cream gives it the creaminess, it gives it some sweetness. 630 00:33:56,853 --> 00:34:00,093 Speaker 16: So that's what we're after. Hear so, And then you've 631 00:34:00,093 --> 00:34:03,533 Speaker 16: got two tablespoons of either coconut cream or milk, or 632 00:34:03,573 --> 00:34:06,173 Speaker 16: you could use cream here, and that really just to 633 00:34:06,173 --> 00:34:08,413 Speaker 16: get it a little bit of looseness as we go, 634 00:34:09,293 --> 00:34:11,173 Speaker 16: and then place all of those ingredients into the blender 635 00:34:11,213 --> 00:34:15,933 Speaker 16: and pulse it until it's smooth and creamy. And it 636 00:34:15,973 --> 00:34:18,133 Speaker 16: will be and you can either serve it straight away. 637 00:34:18,173 --> 00:34:20,733 Speaker 16: I mean, honestly takes two seconds to make it. You 638 00:34:20,733 --> 00:34:23,093 Speaker 16: can scoop it into a cone. I don't know whether 639 00:34:23,133 --> 00:34:25,853 Speaker 16: you when you go and get gelato, Francesca, are you 640 00:34:25,893 --> 00:34:27,693 Speaker 16: a cone or a tub person? 641 00:34:27,893 --> 00:34:28,733 Speaker 2: I'm a cone girl. 642 00:34:29,053 --> 00:34:31,653 Speaker 16: Oh well, you are the right sort of person because 643 00:34:31,653 --> 00:34:34,613 Speaker 16: you get such a you get all the sensations by 644 00:34:34,613 --> 00:34:37,693 Speaker 16: getting your ice cream in a cone, so I must 645 00:34:37,733 --> 00:34:39,373 Speaker 16: have mad. I look a little bit down on people 646 00:34:39,373 --> 00:34:40,693 Speaker 16: who get it in the. 647 00:34:40,933 --> 00:34:44,973 Speaker 2: In the little tubby ice cream. 648 00:34:45,573 --> 00:34:47,013 Speaker 16: And the reason for that is you're going to get 649 00:34:47,013 --> 00:34:49,613 Speaker 16: that awful wooden spoon that is just no just sort 650 00:34:49,613 --> 00:34:52,533 Speaker 16: of drag over your toe. Whereas when you are eating 651 00:34:52,533 --> 00:34:55,293 Speaker 16: it from a cone, you're getting this whole malefield. The 652 00:34:55,413 --> 00:34:58,053 Speaker 16: tongue has got so many senses on it, so by 653 00:34:58,133 --> 00:35:00,693 Speaker 16: licking that ice cream, you're just getting this beautiful feeling. 654 00:35:00,813 --> 00:35:03,813 Speaker 16: So this scoops really nicely into some cones, and it's 655 00:35:03,853 --> 00:35:05,893 Speaker 16: fun to have ice cream cones at home, and but 656 00:35:05,933 --> 00:35:07,693 Speaker 16: you feel like a kid anytime you like. 657 00:35:07,813 --> 00:35:09,733 Speaker 2: The only problem is I make a recipe like this 658 00:35:09,813 --> 00:35:11,973 Speaker 2: and it just doesn't last. It's gone, yeah. 659 00:35:11,893 --> 00:35:13,453 Speaker 5: Right, I know, I know, I don't. 660 00:35:13,573 --> 00:35:15,253 Speaker 16: The way to make it last is to not eat 661 00:35:15,253 --> 00:35:17,693 Speaker 16: it immediately. That's my favorite way to do it, is 662 00:35:17,733 --> 00:35:20,173 Speaker 16: to eat it the meating because it's that perfect consistency. 663 00:35:20,853 --> 00:35:23,053 Speaker 16: But if you pop it in the freezer, then of 664 00:35:23,093 --> 00:35:25,373 Speaker 16: course it's going to freeze to quite hut because it 665 00:35:25,373 --> 00:35:27,293 Speaker 16: has got a bit of liquid in there. And so 666 00:35:27,373 --> 00:35:30,733 Speaker 16: my recommendation with in fact, any ice cream that you 667 00:35:30,773 --> 00:35:34,173 Speaker 16: buy or make yourself is always take it out. If 668 00:35:34,173 --> 00:35:37,533 Speaker 16: it's gelato, take it out twenty minutes before serving, and 669 00:35:37,733 --> 00:35:40,693 Speaker 16: if it's ice cream, take it out thirty minutes and 670 00:35:40,733 --> 00:35:43,973 Speaker 16: it just will then soften to the ultimate kind of 671 00:35:44,413 --> 00:35:47,293 Speaker 16: scooping texture. So I just love this. And then you 672 00:35:47,333 --> 00:35:51,133 Speaker 16: can have fun with some garnishes.

It's a quarter 719 00:39:53,653 --> 00:39:55,493 Speaker 2: of a century, over record of a century. 720 00:39:55,253 --> 00:39:59,493 Speaker 15: Twenty six, I know, it's. 721 00:39:58,773 --> 00:39:59,493 Speaker 2: How does that feel? 722 00:40:01,133 --> 00:40:02,133 Speaker 15: I don't I used to. 723 00:40:02,173 --> 00:40:04,293 Speaker 19: I think in the past I used to say I 724 00:40:04,373 --> 00:40:08,533 Speaker 19: used to feel old. But you feel proud, and I 725 00:40:08,533 --> 00:40:15,053 Speaker 19: think that's what takes over. And also we're still creating music, 726 00:40:15,173 --> 00:40:18,413 Speaker 19: so I'm excited. Just last weekend we're done in Wellington 727 00:40:18,453 --> 00:40:22,253 Speaker 19: working on album eight. And if I was coming here 728 00:40:22,293 --> 00:40:25,573 Speaker 19: and we were just celebrating this and it's twenty years 729 00:40:25,573 --> 00:40:27,773 Speaker 19: and we haven't done an album in five, you know, 730 00:40:27,973 --> 00:40:30,333 Speaker 19: in a long period of time, I think it'd be 731 00:40:30,333 --> 00:40:34,693 Speaker 19: a little bit depressed about that. 732 00:40:34,693 --> 00:40:37,373 Speaker 2: That's a really good point because if I think about 733 00:40:37,493 --> 00:40:39,533 Speaker 2: bands who are touring. There are a lot of bands. 734 00:40:39,533 --> 00:40:42,173 Speaker 2: It's sort of entrend at the moment to have done 735 00:40:42,253 --> 00:40:46,093 Speaker 2: nothing for ten fifteen years and suddenly, you know, older 736 00:40:46,093 --> 00:40:48,333 Speaker 2: bands are hitting the road again, and there seems to 737 00:40:48,373 --> 00:40:49,853 Speaker 2: be a bit of a market for that. But I 738 00:40:49,933 --> 00:40:52,813 Speaker 2: get I can see that little difference that you've got there. 739 00:40:54,253 --> 00:40:56,013 Speaker 2: We're still really productive, and we're. 740 00:40:55,893 --> 00:41:00,533 Speaker 19: Still really productive. I'm really excited. I was saying to 741 00:41:00,613 --> 00:41:04,653 Speaker 19: the boys about before doing a whole lot of media 742 00:41:04,773 --> 00:41:06,213 Speaker 19: to talk about. 743 00:41:06,413 --> 00:41:07,173 Speaker 15: On the sun. 744 00:41:08,613 --> 00:41:13,453 Speaker 19: That I'm just I'm so energized. My soul is energized 745 00:41:13,493 --> 00:41:15,413 Speaker 19: from what we did on the weekend of working on 746 00:41:15,453 --> 00:41:19,213 Speaker 19: this new album, and and that's partly before it because 747 00:41:19,253 --> 00:41:24,573 Speaker 19: it was so productive, and you know, I'm we're old fellas, 748 00:41:24,573 --> 00:41:29,213 Speaker 19: and you kind of start questioning, like where you're at 749 00:41:29,293 --> 00:41:31,973 Speaker 19: and do we carry I mean I do. I'm not 750 00:41:32,013 --> 00:41:33,853 Speaker 19: speaking for the rest of the guys, but you know, 751 00:41:33,973 --> 00:41:38,093 Speaker 19: how long do we do this? And but when I 752 00:41:38,133 --> 00:41:42,453 Speaker 19: come back to the band and we're all together and 753 00:41:42,493 --> 00:41:47,533 Speaker 19: we're creating and people are bringing ideas, it's just exactly 754 00:41:47,573 --> 00:41:50,133 Speaker 19: what I need. It's the medicine that I need. And 755 00:41:50,213 --> 00:41:52,653 Speaker 19: I think that's the same for the guys. And so 756 00:41:53,053 --> 00:41:55,173 Speaker 19: I come here today and I'm just you know, I'm 757 00:41:55,213 --> 00:41:59,613 Speaker 19: excited about twenty years on the Sun, but I'm very 758 00:41:59,653 --> 00:42:01,093 Speaker 19: excited about album. 759 00:42:01,173 --> 00:42:04,293 Speaker 2: Mate, tell me about On the Sun. How formative was 760 00:42:04,333 --> 00:42:07,133 Speaker 2: this album to how the band sounded operate today? 761 00:42:07,893 --> 00:42:13,453 Speaker 19: Well, yeah, I mean it's it's it's such a different band. 762 00:42:13,933 --> 00:42:18,373 Speaker 19: This is on the last last weekend, we had Brett McKenzie, 763 00:42:19,373 --> 00:42:23,333 Speaker 19: you know from Flight of the Concord Fame, come back 764 00:42:23,373 --> 00:42:25,973 Speaker 19: and celebrate because he was playing keys on this album 765 00:42:26,013 --> 00:42:31,573 Speaker 19: and wrote brought Fire the tuned Fire to our attention, 766 00:42:32,333 --> 00:42:38,013 Speaker 19: and we had Shannon Williams on bass and Rich Christy 767 00:42:38,093 --> 00:42:46,213 Speaker 19: on drums. And I think like this period is there's 768 00:42:46,213 --> 00:42:51,333 Speaker 19: a bit of naivety. There's there's just trying to young 769 00:42:51,453 --> 00:42:55,693 Speaker 19: and trying things and trying to achieve that. And I 770 00:42:55,693 --> 00:42:59,813 Speaker 19: think with Lee Prepper, who also recorded it, he's said 771 00:42:59,813 --> 00:43:01,653 Speaker 19: that as well, you know, like how do we get 772 00:43:01,773 --> 00:43:02,373 Speaker 19: you know, we'd. 773 00:43:02,213 --> 00:43:04,813 Speaker 15: Go to Lin say how do we make this sound 774 00:43:05,653 --> 00:43:05,893 Speaker 15: like this? 775 00:43:06,053 --> 00:43:10,813 Speaker 19: And like, oh, yes, well, you know, pully feed us, 776 00:43:11,373 --> 00:43:13,453 Speaker 19: make us feel secure and give us some sort of 777 00:43:13,493 --> 00:43:17,413 Speaker 19: answer and then we'd carry on. And and so we've 778 00:43:17,453 --> 00:43:20,613 Speaker 19: brought in you know, with fire. It's got the funk 779 00:43:20,693 --> 00:43:23,293 Speaker 19: part of it, and you can feel some of those 780 00:43:23,333 --> 00:43:25,653 Speaker 19: elements come into this this album. 781 00:43:26,173 --> 00:43:26,973 Speaker 15: And then. 782 00:43:28,573 --> 00:43:33,533 Speaker 19: You know, when Barney wrote brought the idea so true, 783 00:43:33,893 --> 00:43:35,333 Speaker 19: I personally didn't think. 784 00:43:36,693 --> 00:43:38,013 Speaker 15: I didn't really think too much of it. 785 00:43:38,093 --> 00:43:39,693 Speaker 19: I thought, yeah, that's a love song, and I'm not 786 00:43:39,733 --> 00:43:42,013 Speaker 19: at that stage in my life where I'm thinking about that. 787 00:43:42,173 --> 00:43:44,933 Speaker 15: I'm I've said it before. 788 00:43:44,973 --> 00:43:47,013 Speaker 19: I think I was in my nine inch nails face 789 00:43:47,093 --> 00:43:52,133 Speaker 19: and it still am still love that that heavier type 790 00:43:52,133 --> 00:43:55,493 Speaker 19: of music. And I didn't understand this, this what he 791 00:43:55,573 --> 00:44:00,293 Speaker 19: was saying. And then the music taught me. The song 792 00:44:00,413 --> 00:44:01,973 Speaker 19: taught me wonderful. 793 00:44:01,533 --> 00:44:03,253 Speaker 2: To see it being released on vinyl. Is this the 794 00:44:03,293 --> 00:44:04,773 Speaker 2: first album you've released on vinyl? 795 00:44:05,253 --> 00:44:08,933 Speaker 19: No, We've got that's our first album, Keep on Bushing 796 00:44:09,253 --> 00:44:14,293 Speaker 19: that was released on vinyl.

Classic Album, and that's a that's 799 00:44:22,653 --> 00:44:27,173 Speaker 19: a gold vinyl. Yeah, this one, the double LP. 800 00:44:28,653 --> 00:44:29,653 Speaker 2: Got a new track on there. 801 00:44:30,013 --> 00:44:34,093 Speaker 19: We've got two new tracks on here Rogan Josh and 802 00:44:36,253 --> 00:44:43,893 Speaker 19: so True in Today Muri and and that's that has 803 00:44:43,933 --> 00:44:47,373 Speaker 19: brought it to life again of a song that was 804 00:44:47,373 --> 00:44:53,733 Speaker 19: a romantic song, so true to a song that is 805 00:44:53,733 --> 00:44:54,733 Speaker 19: more of love for. 806 00:44:56,293 --> 00:44:57,453 Speaker 15: Just the message of love. 807 00:44:57,573 --> 00:45:02,293 Speaker 19: I think as where Barney feel's with with that song. 808 00:45:02,413 --> 00:45:05,933 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting because because you have been around twenty 809 00:45:05,973 --> 00:45:08,813 Speaker 2: six year, you've seen the music industry, I imagine, change 810 00:45:08,813 --> 00:45:11,493 Speaker 2: an awful lot. We've seen the explosion of digital music. 811 00:45:11,533 --> 00:45:14,573 Speaker 2: We're seeing the re emergence of you know, of physical 812 00:45:14,613 --> 00:45:19,333 Speaker 2: media like vinyl and things. Does it actually does any 813 00:45:19,373 --> 00:45:24,933 Speaker 2: of that actually change the way a band functions and 814 00:45:25,053 --> 00:45:26,693 Speaker 2: exists or at the end of the day, is it's 815 00:45:26,693 --> 00:45:29,973 Speaker 2: still just the same. You get together, you write music, 816 00:45:30,333 --> 00:45:33,533 Speaker 2: you create, create the music, record the music to the 817 00:45:33,613 --> 00:45:36,413 Speaker 2: music is it Is it still the same as it 818 00:45:36,493 --> 00:45:36,933 Speaker 2: used to be? 819 00:45:37,613 --> 00:45:41,373 Speaker 19: That is still the same. I don't think that can change. 820 00:45:42,733 --> 00:45:49,973 Speaker 19: I think we have to adjust to social media and 821 00:45:49,973 --> 00:45:52,613 Speaker 19: and what what what do we need to bring? What 822 00:45:52,653 --> 00:45:55,653 Speaker 19: do how much do we share? What are we sharing? 823 00:45:55,813 --> 00:46:00,653 Speaker 19: And and and understanding that and is and you know, 824 00:46:00,693 --> 00:46:03,453 Speaker 19: you can have so many pop ups of like if 825 00:46:03,493 --> 00:46:08,173 Speaker 19: you think posting every day is the way, then it's 826 00:46:08,213 --> 00:46:10,533 Speaker 19: not subscribe to this and. 827 00:46:12,893 --> 00:46:15,733 Speaker 15: The one thing like the creative part of it. Yes, 828 00:46:15,813 --> 00:46:16,773 Speaker 15: that is still the same. 829 00:46:17,693 --> 00:46:21,253 Speaker 19: I guess we have more technology now to record through 830 00:46:21,893 --> 00:46:28,013 Speaker 19: each have an individual interface to record into the last album. 831 00:46:28,853 --> 00:46:33,373 Speaker 19: During COVID we had zoom sessions and me and Niger 832 00:46:33,413 --> 00:46:39,933 Speaker 19: our keyboarders could set share share those sessions and. 833 00:46:38,493 --> 00:46:39,413 Speaker 15: So that was great. 834 00:46:40,053 --> 00:46:43,773 Speaker 19: But yeah, I think like this social media has been 835 00:46:43,773 --> 00:46:48,293 Speaker 19: something that we've had to adjust to. Not everybody's keen 836 00:46:48,333 --> 00:46:52,813 Speaker 19: on sharing in that way, and sometimes you can get 837 00:46:52,813 --> 00:46:58,453 Speaker 19: a bit burnt out of using that device, your phone 838 00:46:58,893 --> 00:47:03,493 Speaker 19: and sharing hey, this is what I've done today, or 839 00:47:03,933 --> 00:47:06,013 Speaker 19: do we have the content to put in there and 840 00:47:06,053 --> 00:47:11,573 Speaker 19: get in those sort of Yeah, And I think but 841 00:47:12,013 --> 00:47:15,933 Speaker 19: the one thing with this social media is that and 842 00:47:15,933 --> 00:47:18,933 Speaker 19: there's changed from the past, is that we can connect 843 00:47:19,413 --> 00:47:23,853 Speaker 19: directly to our fans and that's how I like. That's 844 00:47:23,893 --> 00:47:25,973 Speaker 19: what I love about it is that if someone's got 845 00:47:26,013 --> 00:47:29,453 Speaker 19: the time to message us on you know, recently on 846 00:47:29,493 --> 00:47:36,693 Speaker 19: a post about the fire video and then and you 847 00:47:36,733 --> 00:47:41,893 Speaker 19: can see it instantly how many people are sending great 848 00:47:41,933 --> 00:47:45,733 Speaker 19: messages to it. And it's like we need to message 849 00:47:46,413 --> 00:47:49,013 Speaker 19: back with a sentence and not just a heart. And 850 00:47:50,693 --> 00:47:52,533 Speaker 19: I have to take a step back, like I do 851 00:47:52,573 --> 00:47:54,573 Speaker 19: a bit of the social media, and I have to 852 00:47:54,613 --> 00:47:57,253 Speaker 19: take a step back, and my expectations on the other 853 00:47:57,333 --> 00:48:01,253 Speaker 19: guys are like, no, you're not. It's a headspace right 854 00:48:01,293 --> 00:48:04,413 Speaker 19: to be in there to reply back to somebody that 855 00:48:04,453 --> 00:48:06,973 Speaker 19: you're probably never going to meet. But I think of 856 00:48:07,053 --> 00:48:11,693 Speaker 19: it as that and you can't sell those ideas. Do 857 00:48:11,733 --> 00:48:14,973 Speaker 19: you have to experience it and get your head around it. 858 00:48:14,973 --> 00:48:21,013 Speaker 19: It's like I'm I can't easily message people because because 859 00:48:21,053 --> 00:48:22,933 Speaker 19: I've got my head into that space when I'm not 860 00:48:23,373 --> 00:48:24,853 Speaker 19: burnt out by social media. 861 00:48:25,333 --> 00:48:29,533 Speaker 2: It's interesting you mentioned doing the recording via zoom because 862 00:48:29,733 --> 00:48:32,653 Speaker 2: we think of you as famously a Wellington band, but really, 863 00:48:32,733 --> 00:48:34,053 Speaker 2: is there anyone left to Wellington. 864 00:48:35,813 --> 00:48:39,773 Speaker 19: Ryan Prebble, who's our latest guitarist, has played with us 865 00:48:39,813 --> 00:48:41,333 Speaker 19: for many years overseas. 866 00:48:41,733 --> 00:48:43,133 Speaker 15: He is the only one in Wellington. 867 00:48:43,213 --> 00:48:47,013 Speaker 2: So we've got Wellington is represented. So how does the 868 00:48:47,013 --> 00:48:49,093 Speaker 2: band work? Then, of course you've just been talking about 869 00:48:49,173 --> 00:48:52,493 Speaker 2: that it's a bad work because you just mentioned that 870 00:48:52,893 --> 00:48:55,053 Speaker 2: album number eight is and is in the book. So 871 00:48:55,133 --> 00:48:57,253 Speaker 2: what happens do you do? Do you do a certain 872 00:48:57,293 --> 00:48:59,493 Speaker 2: amount separately and then just sort of come together and 873 00:49:00,373 --> 00:49:01,373 Speaker 2: go through that credit point. 874 00:49:02,013 --> 00:49:05,573 Speaker 19: I mean, it's it's it's hard and you don't want 875 00:49:05,613 --> 00:49:11,213 Speaker 19: to think about it's it's frustrating and which we get 876 00:49:11,213 --> 00:49:16,093 Speaker 19: together like we did on the weekend, all stay in 877 00:49:16,133 --> 00:49:21,333 Speaker 19: the studio and just trying to bring ideas. I brought 878 00:49:21,373 --> 00:49:28,973 Speaker 19: an idea, Barney brings an idea, Johnny our drummer, and 879 00:49:28,973 --> 00:49:31,413 Speaker 19: and we have some other demos that we had from 880 00:49:31,493 --> 00:49:34,253 Speaker 19: the previous session. So it's really in these small pockets 881 00:49:34,253 --> 00:49:38,853 Speaker 19: of time. So when we're down there, it is you know, 882 00:49:39,373 --> 00:49:44,013 Speaker 19: ten o'clock till if it's you know, three in the morning, 883 00:49:44,573 --> 00:49:47,573 Speaker 19: and that's not all of us, it's me and me 884 00:49:47,613 --> 00:49:50,693 Speaker 19: and Barney are very big on Okay, if you've got 885 00:49:50,693 --> 00:49:53,453 Speaker 19: a vocal idea to just just. 886 00:49:53,493 --> 00:49:57,893 Speaker 15: Get down, let's just try it. Usually I'll be there like. 887 00:49:57,933 --> 00:50:03,413 Speaker 19: Doing some percussion, just trying to use up that time 888 00:50:04,533 --> 00:50:08,693 Speaker 19: is just be as productive as possible and usually near 889 00:50:08,733 --> 00:50:11,373 Speaker 19: the end you get a bit burnt out. So yeah, 890 00:50:11,413 --> 00:50:13,693 Speaker 19: over the weekend it was like three point thirty. 891 00:50:14,053 --> 00:50:17,093 Speaker 15: You're in bed. It's hard. 892 00:50:17,493 --> 00:50:20,333 Speaker 2: You mentioned before day jobs, and I think that's a 893 00:50:20,373 --> 00:50:24,813 Speaker 2: reality of being for most musicians in New Zealand, regardless 894 00:50:24,853 --> 00:50:27,453 Speaker 2: of whether you're touring the world or not. What do 895 00:50:27,453 --> 00:50:27,693 Speaker 2: you do. 896 00:50:28,293 --> 00:50:32,493 Speaker 19: I am a height safety supervisor. 897 00:50:32,573 --> 00:50:34,253 Speaker 15: We install. 898 00:50:35,373 --> 00:50:39,053 Speaker 19: Height safety systems like letters that probably get into this 899 00:50:39,173 --> 00:50:44,133 Speaker 19: building anchor points that you would have up there. So 900 00:50:44,253 --> 00:50:48,173 Speaker 19: I'm we're making it safe access. And so I supervise 901 00:50:49,533 --> 00:50:53,933 Speaker 19: young little crews for this company technical Rigging Services, which 902 00:50:53,973 --> 00:50:56,613 Speaker 19: my boss will be stoked about to get that on there. 903 00:50:56,653 --> 00:50:59,173 Speaker 2: And I really wasn't expecting you were going to say. 904 00:50:59,013 --> 00:51:02,133 Speaker 19: That, oh, the height safety supervisor. 905 00:51:02,613 --> 00:51:04,773 Speaker 2: I'm teaching or I work here, you know, like it's 906 00:51:04,773 --> 00:51:08,053 Speaker 2: sort of something within within. I like that that you've 907 00:51:08,053 --> 00:51:10,293 Speaker 2: got two different worlds. Although that is quite that'd be 908 00:51:10,373 --> 00:51:12,093 Speaker 2: quite a new racking job. You've got to get that right. 909 00:51:12,413 --> 00:51:13,773 Speaker 15: Yeah, you have to get that right. 910 00:51:15,813 --> 00:51:16,093 Speaker 3: I think. 911 00:51:17,133 --> 00:51:17,453 Speaker 4: I think. 912 00:51:17,533 --> 00:51:20,733 Speaker 19: I think both my job with the seeds and that 913 00:51:20,853 --> 00:51:26,453 Speaker 19: job have made me I think routine is I need it, 914 00:51:27,013 --> 00:51:31,013 Speaker 19: and the responsibility that I have. I wasn't a supervisor 915 00:51:31,013 --> 00:51:36,053 Speaker 19: before in previous jobs, and that's just put me in 916 00:51:35,453 --> 00:51:41,133 Speaker 19: a good headspace for direction and what's coming next. And 917 00:51:40,853 --> 00:51:45,093 Speaker 19: and I think with the band, dealing with other people 918 00:51:45,653 --> 00:51:51,213 Speaker 19: has been helpful being a supervisor. It's it's not easy 919 00:51:51,213 --> 00:51:53,413 Speaker 19: if anybody would know to. 920 00:51:53,333 --> 00:51:56,653 Speaker 2: Have someone with better health and safety kind of consciousness. 921 00:51:56,733 --> 00:52:02,293 Speaker 20: Yeah, yeah, the one of those guys is like, yeah, 922 00:52:02,333 --> 00:52:04,613 Speaker 20: they shouldn't have that post for a backstage. It's like 923 00:52:05,133 --> 00:52:08,933 Speaker 20: someone cover this cable play cones and barriers over here. 924 00:52:08,973 --> 00:52:11,773 Speaker 2: I love it.

I know, franschhisse God is gonna love this one. 961 00:53:57,013 --> 00:53:59,613 Speaker 17: But this is a fantastic news spy thriller that's just 962 00:53:59,613 --> 00:54:01,653 Speaker 17: come to Netflix, and it comes with an all star 963 00:54:01,773 --> 00:54:05,133 Speaker 17: cast including Kara Knightley, Ben with Shaw, and Sarah Lancashire. 964 00:54:05,133 --> 00:54:07,773 Speaker 17: And whenever I see Sarah Lankash's name in a show 965 00:54:07,893 --> 00:54:10,453 Speaker 17: she's starred, and shows like Happy Valley and Julia, I 966 00:54:10,533 --> 00:54:12,933 Speaker 17: know that it's going to be good. And in Black Doves, 967 00:54:12,973 --> 00:54:15,853 Speaker 17: Kiara Knightley plays Helen, who is a spy who's spent 968 00:54:15,933 --> 00:54:19,613 Speaker 17: the past ten years masquerading as a politician's wife. She's 969 00:54:19,653 --> 00:54:22,853 Speaker 17: married to the British Defense Secretary. She's passing on all 970 00:54:22,893 --> 00:54:26,613 Speaker 17: sorts of state secrets and when her secret lover is murdered, 971 00:54:26,773 --> 00:54:29,373 Speaker 17: she teams up with another spy played by Ben Wishaw, 972 00:54:29,413 --> 00:54:32,253 Speaker 17: who's an assassin, and together they're going to try and 973 00:54:32,253 --> 00:54:34,773 Speaker 17: find out who is behind the murder, and of course 974 00:54:34,813 --> 00:54:39,933 Speaker 17: they uncover this international government conspiracy that inevitably is a 975 00:54:39,933 --> 00:54:42,733 Speaker 17: lot bigger than they think. And Sarah Lancashire plays the 976 00:54:43,173 --> 00:54:45,813 Speaker 17: tough spy boss at the top who's trying to keep 977 00:54:45,853 --> 00:54:49,013 Speaker 17: Helen in check. This is set in December in London, 978 00:54:49,093 --> 00:54:51,853 Speaker 17: so you've got this cold, festive setting for this quite 979 00:54:51,933 --> 00:54:54,653 Speaker 17: tight spy thriller. And I just thought this was a 980 00:54:54,693 --> 00:54:57,813 Speaker 17: lot of fun. It's a bit pulpy, it's funny. There's 981 00:54:57,813 --> 00:54:59,813 Speaker 17: a really dry humor in it, but it pulls you 982 00:54:59,893 --> 00:55:03,133 Speaker 17: in from the opening seconds. It just grabs you straight away. 983 00:55:04,013 --> 00:55:06,853 Speaker 17: You know it's got some spark to it and probably 984 00:55:06,933 --> 00:55:09,533 Speaker 17: a show that you want to suspend. Belief for you know, 985 00:55:09,573 --> 00:55:12,293 Speaker 17: you probably don't want to think about the details too hard. 986 00:55:12,453 --> 00:55:14,933 Speaker 17: But if you want a thriller with lots of action 987 00:55:15,133 --> 00:55:17,733 Speaker 17: and energy and twists this weekend, I don't think you 988 00:55:17,773 --> 00:55:18,693 Speaker 17: can go wrong with No. 989 00:55:18,733 --> 00:55:22,413 Speaker 2: It's one pleasure to dworthy now. Sight Unseen is a 990 00:55:22,453 --> 00:55:24,733 Speaker 2: bit of a different take on sort of the traditional 991 00:55:25,013 --> 00:55:28,693 Speaker 2: police crime drama. 992 00:55:28,893 --> 00:55:31,533 Speaker 17: Yeah, this is a Canadian police drama with a bit 993 00:55:31,573 --> 00:55:34,213 Speaker 17: of a twist. And if you love those kinds of 994 00:55:34,373 --> 00:55:37,813 Speaker 17: weekly network crime dramas like Law and Order or CSI, 995 00:55:37,933 --> 00:55:40,293 Speaker 17: I think you'll enjoy this as well. It's about a 996 00:55:40,293 --> 00:55:44,293 Speaker 17: police detective in Vancouver called Tess who discovers she has 997 00:55:44,333 --> 00:55:47,653 Speaker 17: a degenerative eye condition and is going blind, and she 998 00:55:47,773 --> 00:55:50,933 Speaker 17: makes a mistake on an important case and to right 999 00:55:51,013 --> 00:55:53,533 Speaker 17: or wrong and solve the case, she enlists the help 1000 00:55:53,573 --> 00:55:56,733 Speaker 17: of a seeing guide who she connects with over the 1001 00:55:56,733 --> 00:56:00,293 Speaker 17: Internet and her phone camera, and the seeing guide helps 1002 00:56:00,333 --> 00:56:04,333 Speaker 17: her physically navigate the world and solve this case. The guide, Sonny, 1003 00:56:04,493 --> 00:56:07,693 Speaker 17: is actually three thousand miles away in New York, so 1004 00:56:07,893 --> 00:56:10,533 Speaker 17: they're never in the same room, but together they form 1005 00:56:10,613 --> 00:56:13,733 Speaker 17: this unlikely team and they have to find a balance 1006 00:56:13,773 --> 00:56:17,213 Speaker 17: between helping each other and not getting too tangled up 1007 00:56:17,733 --> 00:56:20,653 Speaker 17: in each other's lives. So on one hand, this is 1008 00:56:20,733 --> 00:56:23,813 Speaker 17: quite a generic police drama and again another show that 1009 00:56:24,813 --> 00:56:27,093 Speaker 17: you know you'll need to suspend belief for because it 1010 00:56:27,133 --> 00:56:31,893 Speaker 17: does push the boundaries of plausibility at times. But I 1011 00:56:31,933 --> 00:56:35,053 Speaker 17: thought it was a really interesting twist for the lead 1012 00:56:35,173 --> 00:56:37,733 Speaker 17: character to have this life changing condition, you know, she 1013 00:56:37,853 --> 00:56:41,613 Speaker 17: experiences the world differently to her colleagues, and that makes 1014 00:56:41,653 --> 00:56:44,053 Speaker 17: the show stand out among a lot of other crime dramas. 1015 00:56:44,053 --> 00:56:46,933 Speaker 17: I think, you know, it raises issues about how we 1016 00:56:46,973 --> 00:56:49,413 Speaker 17: move through the world and how we connect with other people. 1017 00:56:50,053 --> 00:56:52,653 Speaker 17: And it also starts Daniel Gillies, who's a New Zealand 1018 00:56:52,693 --> 00:56:55,453 Speaker 17: actor doing great things overseas. So if you're a crime 1019 00:56:55,493 --> 00:56:57,973 Speaker 17: drama fan, yeah, this is definitely worth checking out as well. 1020 00:56:58,333 --> 00:57:00,213 Speaker 2: At this time of the year, sometimes we're reaching for 1021 00:57:00,453 --> 00:57:03,773 Speaker 2: just something light and enjoyable, just a little something to 1022 00:57:03,813 --> 00:57:06,693 Speaker 2: take the stress of the pressure of the world away. 1023 00:57:07,133 --> 00:57:08,693 Speaker 2: And that was how I was feeling when I clicked 1024 00:57:08,693 --> 00:57:12,133 Speaker 2: on Mann Inside the other day, with absolutely no expectations whatsoever, 1025 00:57:12,733 --> 00:57:14,533 Speaker 2: but I just found it charming. 1026 00:57:16,253 --> 00:57:18,533 Speaker 17: Oh my gosh, it's such a gem. This is a 1027 00:57:18,573 --> 00:57:22,013 Speaker 17: new American comedy on Netflix. The premise of the show 1028 00:57:22,093 --> 00:57:25,333 Speaker 17: is delightfully bonkers, but it stars Ted Danson, who I 1029 00:57:25,333 --> 00:57:27,773 Speaker 17: think is perfect for this role. And it's created by 1030 00:57:27,813 --> 00:57:31,573 Speaker 17: Michael Sher, who is behind shows like Parks and rec 1031 00:57:31,733 --> 00:57:34,493 Speaker 17: and The Good Place and Brooklyn ninety nine, so you 1032 00:57:34,493 --> 00:57:37,053 Speaker 17: know this guy knows how to make comedy. And ted 1033 00:57:37,133 --> 00:57:40,973 Speaker 17: Danson he's seventy six. He plays a retired professor who's 1034 00:57:41,013 --> 00:57:44,493 Speaker 17: recently widowed and is hired by a private detective to 1035 00:57:44,693 --> 00:57:48,573 Speaker 17: infiltrate a rest home in San Francisco. There's a jewelry 1036 00:57:48,613 --> 00:57:51,093 Speaker 17: thief on the loose in the rest home and one 1037 00:57:51,093 --> 00:57:53,213 Speaker 17: of the families of the residents wants to find them, 1038 00:57:53,893 --> 00:57:57,773 Speaker 17: and so ted Danson's character turns amateur detective. He moves in, 1039 00:57:58,013 --> 00:58:00,653 Speaker 17: he becomes a mole, he becomes a man on the inside, 1040 00:58:01,053 --> 00:58:03,293 Speaker 17: and he's got one month to work out who's committing 1041 00:58:03,333 --> 00:58:05,893 Speaker 17: the crimes. But what happens, of course, is that he 1042 00:58:05,933 --> 00:58:09,133 Speaker 17: makes free with all these quirky residents and against his 1043 00:58:09,253 --> 00:58:12,253 Speaker 17: better judgment, gets this brand new lease on life again. 1044 00:58:12,653 --> 00:58:16,533 Speaker 17: It's very gentle, light and heartwarming, and it has these 1045 00:58:16,613 --> 00:58:19,693 Speaker 17: lovely tender moments through it where the characters reflect on 1046 00:58:19,933 --> 00:58:23,533 Speaker 17: life and death and aging and family. I love this. 1047 00:58:23,533 --> 00:58:25,773 Speaker 17: This is a gem. It's there's so much comedic talent 1048 00:58:25,933 --> 00:58:28,613 Speaker 17: and experience here, but it also feels very thoughtful and 1049 00:58:30,133 --> 00:58:32,133 Speaker 17: you know, as you say, charming and genuine. It's just 1050 00:58:32,373 --> 00:58:32,813 Speaker 17: a delight. 1051 00:58:32,853 --> 00:58:32,973 Speaker 6: Now. 1052 00:58:32,973 --> 00:58:35,773 Speaker 2: I couldn't agree more Ted Dance and he's just so likable, 1053 00:58:36,013 --> 00:58:39,213 Speaker 2: isn't he so likable? His comedic timing is just brilliant. 1054 00:58:40,293 --> 00:58:42,493 Speaker 2: And when I was watching at Tara, I thought to myself, 1055 00:58:42,493 --> 00:58:45,253 Speaker 2: hang on, I've seen this. I've seen this premise and 1056 00:58:45,453 --> 00:58:49,093 Speaker 2: it's based on a Chilean documentary called The Mole Agent. 1057 00:58:49,213 --> 00:58:52,613 Speaker 2: So if you've seen that documentary, it will kind of 1058 00:58:52,693 --> 00:58:55,213 Speaker 2: it'll come together in your mind. But I wondered whether 1059 00:58:55,693 --> 00:58:59,813 Speaker 2: sort of the idea around that this is due to 1060 00:58:59,893 --> 00:59:02,013 Speaker 2: kind of the popularity of other sort of shows like 1061 00:59:02,053 --> 00:59:03,253 Speaker 2: Only Murders in the Building. 1062 00:59:04,813 --> 00:59:06,973 Speaker 17: Yes, yeah, I thought the same thing. I thought, if 1063 00:59:06,973 --> 00:59:09,173 Speaker 17: you like Only Medics in the Building, you'll like this too. 1064 00:59:09,293 --> 00:59:12,293 Speaker 17: Just sort of a more relaxed pace, something light to 1065 00:59:12,493 --> 00:59:15,733 Speaker 17: just let wash over you. But but it isn't empty 1066 00:59:15,773 --> 00:59:18,493 Speaker 17: at the same time, you know, there's there's there's beautiful 1067 00:59:18,653 --> 00:59:19,693 Speaker 17: levels to this one. 1068 00:59:19,973 --> 00:59:22,893 Speaker 2: Thank you so much, Tara.

Overnight, 1143 01:03:24,813 --> 01:03:27,653 Speaker 2: the US Court of Appeals they said, nap, We're not 1144 01:03:27,693 --> 01:03:31,533 Speaker 2: going to overturn the law. So what does tektok do now? 1145 01:03:32,293 --> 01:03:35,493 Speaker 8: Well, they have done a lot actually leading up to 1146 01:03:35,533 --> 01:03:37,853 Speaker 8: this point. They say that they've been working with all 1147 01:03:37,893 --> 01:03:41,213 Speaker 8: of the US government departments and regulators and all of 1148 01:03:41,213 --> 01:03:43,573 Speaker 8: that good stuff, and they don't think it should have 1149 01:03:43,613 --> 01:03:47,213 Speaker 8: got to this point. They've also actually separated all of 1150 01:03:47,253 --> 01:03:50,093 Speaker 8: their data outside of China, so they say that all 1151 01:03:50,173 --> 01:03:54,053 Speaker 8: of the data that US users, that they have about 1152 01:03:54,133 --> 01:03:57,773 Speaker 8: US users is in the United States. So they say, hey, 1153 01:03:58,453 --> 01:04:03,053 Speaker 8: just because we are owned by a Chinese company does 1154 01:04:03,093 --> 01:04:05,853 Speaker 8: not mean that we are doing anything nefarious. 1155 01:04:06,613 --> 01:04:08,173 Speaker 5: They say that this is an app that. 1156 01:04:08,213 --> 01:04:10,573 Speaker 8: Should be able to be used by anyone. Of course, 1157 01:04:10,613 --> 01:04:14,093 Speaker 8: the US says a little differently. And one of the 1158 01:04:14,133 --> 01:04:16,613 Speaker 8: things that the Court actually said was that it was 1159 01:04:16,653 --> 01:04:20,293 Speaker 8: the fact that there was extensive bipartisan action by both 1160 01:04:20,413 --> 01:04:26,093 Speaker 8: Congress and successive presidents that led them to side with 1161 01:04:26,173 --> 01:04:29,613 Speaker 8: the US government say no, TikTok, you will be banned. 1162 01:04:30,493 --> 01:04:33,173 Speaker 8: Next step is going to be the Supreme Court. And 1163 01:04:33,573 --> 01:04:36,253 Speaker 8: the big argument that TikTok is making is that this 1164 01:04:36,373 --> 01:04:37,813 Speaker 8: is a matter of free speech. 1165 01:04:39,213 --> 01:04:39,733 Speaker 15: Interesting. 1166 01:04:40,013 --> 01:04:42,013 Speaker 8: I heard you joke before about dancers, So is it 1167 01:04:42,053 --> 01:04:45,893 Speaker 8: also about free dancers. It's going to be interesting, right, 1168 01:04:45,893 --> 01:04:49,253 Speaker 8: because free speech at the moment has a re over here, 1169 01:04:49,333 --> 01:04:55,013 Speaker 8: has a reasonably well understood definition, and so this will 1170 01:04:55,053 --> 01:04:58,293 Speaker 8: be testing that definition to see if free speech also 1171 01:04:58,453 --> 01:05:02,013 Speaker 8: applies to an app. And it's worth pointing out, actually 1172 01:05:02,053 --> 01:05:05,413 Speaker 8: that I think that when this law was passed, TikTok 1173 01:05:05,493 --> 01:05:08,893 Speaker 8: was the absolutely and there really wasn't anywhere else to 1174 01:05:09,053 --> 01:05:12,453 Speaker 8: go and watch those kinds of videos. Right. A lot's 1175 01:05:12,533 --> 01:05:15,613 Speaker 8: changed since then, and a lot has changed because of 1176 01:05:15,613 --> 01:05:19,053 Speaker 8: that law too. Instagram reels has I've put a lot 1177 01:05:19,053 --> 01:05:21,733 Speaker 8: of time and effort into promoting Instagram reels, and they 1178 01:05:21,813 --> 01:05:24,373 Speaker 8: say now that thirty seven percent of all the Instagram 1179 01:05:24,493 --> 01:05:27,333 Speaker 8: users use reels daily. Now that would not have been 1180 01:05:27,373 --> 01:05:29,853 Speaker 8: the case when this law was signed. And about fifty 1181 01:05:29,893 --> 01:05:32,333 Speaker 8: percent of the time that people spend on the Instagram 1182 01:05:32,413 --> 01:05:35,693 Speaker 8: app is with reels, so reels has real traction. So 1183 01:05:35,733 --> 01:05:38,093 Speaker 8: I think that if TikTok was to go away, it 1184 01:05:38,133 --> 01:05:41,213 Speaker 8: would have left a big hole previously, that hole may 1185 01:05:41,213 --> 01:05:43,573 Speaker 8: not be quite as large in twenty twenty five. 1186 01:05:43,813 --> 01:05:47,853 Speaker 2: Paul, why doesn't China allow TikTok there? Oh no, it 1187 01:05:47,853 --> 01:05:50,373 Speaker 2: does allow it better it does, Okay, no, it does. 1188 01:05:50,493 --> 01:05:53,813 Speaker 8: Yeah, But but what the US government has said that 1189 01:05:53,853 --> 01:05:55,973 Speaker 8: they don't want the data. They previously said they don't 1190 01:05:56,013 --> 01:05:59,453 Speaker 8: want data stored in China. The big fear is that 1191 01:05:59,493 --> 01:06:03,293 Speaker 8: the data of the US users can be used in 1192 01:06:03,973 --> 01:06:07,373 Speaker 8: nefarious ways, like deelicious ways, and they have had some 1193 01:06:07,413 --> 01:06:10,453 Speaker 8: really bizarre instances of things where you know, if your 1194 01:06:10,493 --> 01:06:12,653 Speaker 8: phone knows where you are and you've given your location 1195 01:06:12,773 --> 01:06:16,613 Speaker 8: access to the TikTok app, they then may be able 1196 01:06:16,653 --> 01:06:19,733 Speaker 8: to see things like where clusters of people are that 1197 01:06:20,173 --> 01:06:22,173 Speaker 8: maybe they aren't supposed to be, maybe they're in a 1198 01:06:22,173 --> 01:06:24,933 Speaker 8: secret location that they don't want them to know about. 1199 01:06:24,973 --> 01:06:28,413 Speaker 8: It's that type of thing I think that they're kind 1200 01:06:28,453 --> 01:06:29,213 Speaker 8: of concerned about. 1201 01:06:29,453 --> 01:06:30,973 Speaker 2: All Right, So we're gonna we're going to head back 1202 01:06:30,973 --> 01:06:32,053 Speaker 2: to calls on this one, aren't we. 1203 01:06:32,133 --> 01:06:34,093 Speaker 8: Yeah, fact, well not just the court those it's a 1204 01:06:34,093 --> 01:06:36,813 Speaker 8: Preme Courts two, which will which I mean, that's the 1205 01:06:36,853 --> 01:06:40,413 Speaker 8: last place they can go. And then what they'll potentially 1206 01:06:40,533 --> 01:06:43,093 Speaker 8: you'll visit the app store and the app won't be there, 1207 01:06:43,133 --> 01:06:45,053 Speaker 8: or you'll visit TikTok dot com and there'll be I 1208 01:06:45,053 --> 01:06:48,413 Speaker 8: don't know, there'd be a black screen, a blue screen. 1209 01:06:48,493 --> 01:06:49,813 Speaker 2: I don't know what's going to happen. 1210 01:06:50,253 --> 01:06:51,373 Speaker 5: We haven't seen this before. 1211 01:06:51,693 --> 01:06:54,053 Speaker 2: Well, while we wait and wonder, we can just enjoy 1212 01:06:54,613 --> 01:06:56,853 Speaker 2: accurate predictions of the weather thanks to AI. 1213 01:06:57,973 --> 01:07:00,413 Speaker 8: Yeah, so you know, it used to be the minds 1214 01:07:00,453 --> 01:07:04,493 Speaker 8: of you know, the weather forecasters who were telling us 1215 01:07:04,573 --> 01:07:07,053 Speaker 8: what the weather was going to be doing. But AI's 1216 01:07:07,293 --> 01:07:10,653 Speaker 8: changing all of that big time. A Google company called DeepMind. 1217 01:07:10,693 --> 01:07:13,613 Speaker 8: They've basically taking all the AI things that are happening 1218 01:07:13,613 --> 01:07:15,693 Speaker 8: and trying to find applications for them, and they have 1219 01:07:15,773 --> 01:07:20,773 Speaker 8: managed to create very accurate fifteen day weather forecasts. So 1220 01:07:21,573 --> 01:07:24,333 Speaker 8: over here at least anyway ten days typically the one 1221 01:07:24,413 --> 01:07:26,693 Speaker 8: that you look at is the longest one. And when 1222 01:07:26,693 --> 01:07:28,933 Speaker 8: you start getting around to that eight nine, ten day 1223 01:07:28,933 --> 01:07:33,293 Speaker 8: market's not very accurate. AI is generating fifteen day forecasts 1224 01:07:33,333 --> 01:07:38,573 Speaker 8: that are accurate, and they're actually creating those in minutes 1225 01:07:39,093 --> 01:07:42,853 Speaker 8: rather than the current process that takes hours with a supercomputer. 1226 01:07:43,373 --> 01:07:45,373 Speaker 8: And here's the bit that's kind of scary. One of 1227 01:07:45,373 --> 01:07:48,613 Speaker 8: the senior researchers at this company. It's like we've made 1228 01:07:48,733 --> 01:07:52,773 Speaker 8: decades worth of improvements in one years. 1229 01:07:52,813 --> 01:07:55,933 Speaker 2: Goodness me, incredible, Thank you so much, Paul, really good 1230 01:07:55,933 --> 01:07:58,373 Speaker 2: to catch up.

No, so, what 1248 01:08:47,973 --> 01:08:50,333 Speaker 9: a great topic, and it just made me think of 1249 01:08:50,493 --> 01:08:54,293 Speaker 9: all the community organizations, the charities are not for profits 1250 01:08:54,733 --> 01:08:55,773 Speaker 9: that had helped me. 1251 01:08:55,973 --> 01:08:56,973 Speaker 4: Over the years. 1252 01:08:57,173 --> 01:08:59,573 Speaker 9: So I'm going to ask you this question in a second, Francisco, 1253 01:08:59,613 --> 01:09:02,253 Speaker 9: about what those organizations are. But for me, I grew 1254 01:09:02,333 --> 01:09:07,173 Speaker 9: up in Tahlanaki and the TESP Bank Community Trial they 1255 01:09:07,213 --> 01:09:09,573 Speaker 9: paid for all of the computers in the primary school. 1256 01:09:09,733 --> 01:09:11,853 Speaker 9: And then I was lucky enough to get some scholarships 1257 01:09:11,853 --> 01:09:14,533 Speaker 9: to high school and the university, and you know, somebody 1258 01:09:14,573 --> 01:09:17,413 Speaker 9: donated money so that I could get a bit of 1259 01:09:17,413 --> 01:09:19,773 Speaker 9: a head start and education. I just thought, wow, there 1260 01:09:19,813 --> 01:09:22,333 Speaker 9: are those aren't the only three examples, but there are 1261 01:09:22,373 --> 01:09:26,613 Speaker 9: so many organizations, charities, of the profits, community organizations that 1262 01:09:26,773 --> 01:09:29,133 Speaker 9: help all of us. And it just don't get thinking, oh, 1263 01:09:29,213 --> 01:09:30,733 Speaker 9: maybe I should get back. I mean, are there are 1264 01:09:30,733 --> 01:09:33,613 Speaker 9: any examples of charities that might have helped you over 1265 01:09:33,653 --> 01:09:34,453 Speaker 9: your life? 1266 01:09:35,373 --> 01:09:38,133 Speaker 2: I am trying to think about that. I know that 1267 01:09:38,493 --> 01:09:41,933 Speaker 2: I have definitely given to charities which we might have 1268 01:09:42,013 --> 01:09:45,373 Speaker 2: a personal connection to so for example, if my children 1269 01:09:45,413 --> 01:09:48,773 Speaker 2: have been affected by something, or so our philosophy was, 1270 01:09:48,773 --> 01:09:51,813 Speaker 2: because you know, you can be a little bit overwhelmed 1271 01:09:51,813 --> 01:09:54,293 Speaker 2: with people asking you to contribute our philosophy and our 1272 01:09:54,293 --> 01:09:57,373 Speaker 2: family was. You pick a charity a year and used 1273 01:09:57,413 --> 01:10:00,013 Speaker 2: to cut that and as a family, we used to 1274 01:10:00,093 --> 01:10:01,973 Speaker 2: sit and talk about it. And it could be, you know, 1275 01:10:02,333 --> 01:10:05,173 Speaker 2: would often be so varied. It might be once, as 1276 01:10:05,173 --> 01:10:08,613 Speaker 2: I mentioned something which we've been affected by all someone 1277 01:10:08,613 --> 01:10:11,813 Speaker 2: in our family or a friend has been or it 1278 01:10:11,813 --> 01:10:14,213 Speaker 2: could just be something really random that my kids came 1279 01:10:14,293 --> 01:10:16,813 Speaker 2: up with it they wanted to support, and then you 1280 01:10:16,893 --> 01:10:18,893 Speaker 2: contributed to that one, and then you picked a new 1281 01:10:18,893 --> 01:10:20,573 Speaker 2: one the next year, and then you felt like you 1282 01:10:20,973 --> 01:10:26,053 Speaker 2: were contributing, but it didn't become an overwhelming financial pressure. 1283 01:10:26,893 --> 01:10:29,413 Speaker 9: Well, I think that's a really good thing to involve 1284 01:10:29,453 --> 01:10:32,333 Speaker 9: your kids with as well, so that they're thinking about 1285 01:10:32,373 --> 01:10:35,053 Speaker 9: giving back over time. And I agree that it can 1286 01:10:35,173 --> 01:10:40,053 Speaker 9: feel a little bit overwhelming to just respond to everybody 1287 01:10:40,053 --> 01:10:41,213 Speaker 9: who's always asking. 1288 01:10:40,973 --> 01:10:43,293 Speaker 4: For money, because the rare resource. 1289 01:10:42,853 --> 01:10:45,893 Speaker 9: And charities are not for profits is always money, and 1290 01:10:45,933 --> 01:10:48,373 Speaker 9: so they're always looking for more of it. And it's 1291 01:10:48,453 --> 01:10:52,173 Speaker 9: totally understandable, but I agree that it's probably a better 1292 01:10:52,293 --> 01:10:54,933 Speaker 9: idea to pick a couple of charities with U. It's 1293 01:10:54,973 --> 01:10:57,133 Speaker 9: one year or one that you follow or two that 1294 01:10:57,213 --> 01:10:59,693 Speaker 9: you follow over time and give them so you can 1295 01:10:59,733 --> 01:11:02,533 Speaker 9: actually become quite involved. One of the really good things 1296 01:11:02,573 --> 01:11:06,973 Speaker 9: about donating to charities and community organizations is you can 1297 01:11:07,133 --> 01:11:09,853 Speaker 9: start to feel like you're part of a community, whether 1298 01:11:09,893 --> 01:11:11,853 Speaker 9: it's just you're part of a group of people who 1299 01:11:11,853 --> 01:11:14,813 Speaker 9: are donating, perhaps you get invited along to some sort 1300 01:11:14,853 --> 01:11:19,133 Speaker 9: of think your event, or there's somebody at that organization 1301 01:11:19,293 --> 01:11:22,173 Speaker 9: that you talk to. Now, in terms of how much 1302 01:11:22,173 --> 01:11:24,573 Speaker 9: should you be getting to charity, of course, the answer 1303 01:11:24,653 --> 01:11:27,093 Speaker 9: is how long is a piece of strength. But the 1304 01:11:27,173 --> 01:11:29,053 Speaker 9: last thing about it is when you're very young, if 1305 01:11:29,093 --> 01:11:31,533 Speaker 9: you're in your twenties, it's a bit harder to give 1306 01:11:31,613 --> 01:11:33,413 Speaker 9: to charity because you're going to be on a low 1307 01:11:33,493 --> 01:11:36,013 Speaker 9: income and you don't have a lot to spare. Once 1308 01:11:36,053 --> 01:11:39,093 Speaker 9: you get into your thirties your forties, life gets a 1309 01:11:39,133 --> 01:11:42,573 Speaker 9: little bit easier, but with mortgages and kids, it's still 1310 01:11:42,613 --> 01:11:45,733 Speaker 9: pretty high. But I'd just say to people as you 1311 01:11:45,733 --> 01:11:49,373 Speaker 9: get older, that's when donating becomes a bit easier. So 1312 01:11:49,413 --> 01:11:51,053 Speaker 9: if you're in your twenties, said you're not able to 1313 01:11:51,093 --> 01:11:53,533 Speaker 9: get a lot, that's totally understandable. But if you're in 1314 01:11:53,533 --> 01:11:56,013 Speaker 9: your thirties, but just keep inviting it is to get 1315 01:11:56,053 --> 01:11:57,733 Speaker 9: a bit older, it gets a bit easier. And that's 1316 01:11:57,733 --> 01:11:59,653 Speaker 9: why you do see a lot of people who are 1317 01:11:59,653 --> 01:12:03,013 Speaker 9: in their fifties, sixties, seventies who are incredibly generous with 1318 01:12:03,093 --> 01:12:05,213 Speaker 9: charities because they pay their money and they feel it's 1319 01:12:05,213 --> 01:12:08,493 Speaker 9: time to give back another little test year as well, 1320 01:12:09,053 --> 01:12:10,773 Speaker 9: because you can kind of think of it as a 1321 01:12:10,893 --> 01:12:13,653 Speaker 9: percentage of your income, and there's a whole hupit of 1322 01:12:13,693 --> 01:12:16,253 Speaker 9: different people who sens about how much you should give. 1323 01:12:16,573 --> 01:12:18,973 Speaker 9: But I kind of think, you know, one percent of 1324 01:12:19,013 --> 01:12:23,013 Speaker 9: your architects income is probably a good starting point or 1325 01:12:23,053 --> 01:12:25,813 Speaker 9: a good ballpark just to think about. So let's say 1326 01:12:25,893 --> 01:12:28,373 Speaker 9: maybe you get a thousand dollars a week in your 1327 01:12:28,373 --> 01:12:30,093 Speaker 9: bank account, you might think, oh, I'm going to give 1328 01:12:30,173 --> 01:12:33,453 Speaker 9: ten dollars a week to a community organization, to charity 1329 01:12:33,453 --> 01:12:35,253 Speaker 9: and not for profit whatever it happens to be. 1330 01:12:35,933 --> 01:12:38,013 Speaker 2: Ed mcnight, thank you so much for your time.

And then 1343 01:13:17,973 --> 01:13:20,133 Speaker 2: you've got some other suggestions for us, which I'm not 1344 01:13:20,213 --> 01:13:21,453 Speaker 2: quite too sure whether I'm. 1345 01:13:21,333 --> 01:13:23,773 Speaker 22: Up for, to be honest with you, no, I know, 1346 01:13:23,973 --> 01:13:26,853 Speaker 22: but I just I was going to talk about, you know, 1347 01:13:26,893 --> 01:13:29,493 Speaker 22: what all these things do in your game, and these 1348 01:13:29,533 --> 01:13:33,213 Speaker 22: creepy crawlies and slugs and snails and crabbed beetles and 1349 01:13:33,333 --> 01:13:34,013 Speaker 22: who who grubb? 1350 01:13:34,213 --> 01:13:36,413 Speaker 6: I said to my who beetles are flying around? And know, 1351 01:13:36,413 --> 01:13:38,893 Speaker 6: if you notice, if you're cooking at night and you've 1352 01:13:38,893 --> 01:13:41,893 Speaker 6: got your light on in the kitchen, these huhu beetles 1353 01:13:41,933 --> 01:13:45,213 Speaker 6: are literally smacking into your window. I always find it 1354 01:13:45,333 --> 01:13:48,693 Speaker 6: really exciting, going bang crash, and there they come, you know. 1355 01:13:49,333 --> 01:13:52,573 Speaker 6: And then I thought, you know what I should really 1356 01:13:52,613 --> 01:13:54,813 Speaker 6: talk about that But then, of course, because I knew 1357 01:13:54,853 --> 01:13:58,613 Speaker 6: you would be doing the gig today, I thought I'm 1358 01:13:58,613 --> 01:14:02,173 Speaker 6: going to change this a little bit, because whoo beetles 1359 01:14:02,213 --> 01:14:03,693 Speaker 6: they bite, by the way, if you pick them up, 1360 01:14:03,733 --> 01:14:06,533 Speaker 6: it's really cool. But the point of course is that 1361 01:14:06,613 --> 01:14:09,733 Speaker 6: if you talk about who beetles, everybody go says, what 1362 01:14:09,813 --> 01:14:13,533 Speaker 6: about who grubs? And here we go. If we are 1363 01:14:13,573 --> 01:14:16,213 Speaker 6: looking at our planet and we are having a hell 1364 01:14:16,293 --> 01:14:20,733 Speaker 6: of a lot of cows and sheep everywhere, and meadows 1365 01:14:20,813 --> 01:14:23,173 Speaker 6: and all that sort of stuff, and if we're looking 1366 01:14:23,173 --> 01:14:26,973 Speaker 6: for alternative versions of protein MODI, we're eating whoo grubs 1367 01:14:27,253 --> 01:14:30,253 Speaker 6: a long long time ago. And I thought i'd make 1368 01:14:30,333 --> 01:14:34,373 Speaker 6: that point clear here on this particular program. 1369 01:14:35,093 --> 01:14:38,853 Speaker 2: Look, I think if I was like the Wild the 1370 01:14:38,893 --> 01:14:42,253 Speaker 2: Wild Foods Festival and Hockeyitecut, I think I'd be all 1371 01:14:42,333 --> 01:14:43,773 Speaker 2: up for doing it. But I'm not sure I can 1372 01:14:43,853 --> 01:14:46,493 Speaker 2: quite trust myself to go in the garden and give 1373 01:14:46,573 --> 01:14:50,453 Speaker 2: myself a hooho grab or a snail and cook it 1374 01:14:50,533 --> 01:14:53,013 Speaker 2: up myself. When it comes to the snails, you're just 1375 01:14:53,053 --> 01:14:56,173 Speaker 2: talking about the general gun variety snail that's in our 1376 01:14:56,173 --> 01:14:57,533 Speaker 2: backyards that we can cook up. 1377 01:14:58,413 --> 01:15:05,133 Speaker 6: Francisca, the French important wail from north from Africa, North Africa, 1378 01:15:05,373 --> 01:15:08,693 Speaker 6: and they took it to Europe and they called it escargo. 1379 01:15:09,373 --> 01:15:13,173 Speaker 6: That snail escaped to Belgium, to the Netherlands, to England, 1380 01:15:13,253 --> 01:15:17,853 Speaker 6: to Italy and Spain and places like that, and a 1381 01:15:17,893 --> 01:15:21,173 Speaker 6: lot of those local groups were eating those snails. Guess 1382 01:15:21,213 --> 01:15:24,493 Speaker 6: what happened About one hundred and fifty years ago. People 1383 01:15:24,693 --> 01:15:28,653 Speaker 6: arrived from Europe with their plants in their suitcases and 1384 01:15:28,693 --> 01:15:32,013 Speaker 6: all that sort of stuff to New Zealand and introduced 1385 01:15:32,413 --> 01:15:35,733 Speaker 6: that same snail into our TIUROA. 1386 01:15:37,053 --> 01:15:40,533 Speaker 2: Very well traveled species. How would you cook them? How 1387 01:15:40,533 --> 01:15:41,173 Speaker 2: do you cook them? 1388 01:15:41,893 --> 01:15:45,613 Speaker 6: Well, it's very simple that don't forget people. If you 1389 01:15:45,653 --> 01:15:47,293 Speaker 6: want to have a look at the website, there's a 1390 01:15:47,293 --> 01:15:51,893 Speaker 6: complete if you like, treaty on how you eat them 1391 01:15:51,933 --> 01:15:54,533 Speaker 6: and things like that. What I would do is you, first, 1392 01:15:56,253 --> 01:15:59,933 Speaker 6: if you like, feed them something not plant material, but 1393 01:16:00,053 --> 01:16:03,293 Speaker 6: something like stale bread, which means that their guts are 1394 01:16:03,373 --> 01:16:07,573 Speaker 6: being cleansed by the stale bread, which are normally black, 1395 01:16:07,653 --> 01:16:10,413 Speaker 6: will turn white after three or four days. That means 1396 01:16:10,413 --> 01:16:14,893 Speaker 6: they're ready to cook. Then for fight, it's in boiling water, 1397 01:16:15,053 --> 01:16:18,053 Speaker 6: not longer, otherwise they taste like rubber bands. What you 1398 01:16:18,093 --> 01:16:20,133 Speaker 6: do then is you go to your medicine cabinet and 1399 01:16:20,253 --> 01:16:22,373 Speaker 6: get the tweezes that you use for your eyebrows, and 1400 01:16:22,413 --> 01:16:25,613 Speaker 6: you pull those things out of the shells, making sure 1401 01:16:25,653 --> 01:16:27,933 Speaker 6: that you remember which body which is by now dead 1402 01:16:27,973 --> 01:16:32,893 Speaker 6: and cooked almost belongs to which shell, if you like, 1403 01:16:32,973 --> 01:16:36,053 Speaker 6: because later on in plating up that's quite important. Then 1404 01:16:36,133 --> 01:16:39,493 Speaker 6: you put some garlic butter on the inner pan and 1405 01:16:39,533 --> 01:16:42,253 Speaker 6: you quickly fry them for another three or four minutes, 1406 01:16:42,333 --> 01:16:45,813 Speaker 6: no longer, otherwise they taste like garlic flavored rubber bands. 1407 01:16:46,133 --> 01:16:49,253 Speaker 6: And then you can put those little bodies back into 1408 01:16:49,253 --> 01:16:54,373 Speaker 6: the shell and basically plate them up with wonderful materials 1409 01:16:54,413 --> 01:16:56,813 Speaker 6: like garlic and all sorts of other than pieces, and 1410 01:16:56,853 --> 01:16:59,933 Speaker 6: you can actually eat that very simply and very wisely. 1411 01:17:00,893 --> 01:17:03,493 Speaker 2: The protein, I presume good protein. 1412 01:17:03,693 --> 01:17:06,333 Speaker 6: Yeah, it is absolutely brilliant protein. 1413 01:17:07,213 --> 01:17:08,653 Speaker 2: Have you ever coocked up the hoho grabbers? 1414 01:17:08,693 --> 01:17:08,853 Speaker 9: One? 1415 01:17:09,773 --> 01:17:12,853 Speaker 6: Yes, I had.

I also 1476 01:20:49,133 --> 01:20:52,333 Speaker 23: didn't want it to be a year of me losing friends, 1477 01:20:52,373 --> 01:20:56,413 Speaker 23: so I decided that I wasn't about so if I 1478 01:20:56,453 --> 01:20:59,253 Speaker 23: was invited over to someone's house for dinner, I could 1479 01:20:59,333 --> 01:21:04,133 Speaker 23: eat whatever they served me. So yeah, I wasn't excluding 1480 01:21:04,133 --> 01:21:08,173 Speaker 23: myself or creating kind of unfair demands on my friends 1481 01:21:08,173 --> 01:21:13,013 Speaker 23: and family. And it was it was New Zealand made food, 1482 01:21:13,653 --> 01:21:18,213 Speaker 23: so that doesn't necessarily mean grown, but I had a 1483 01:21:18,293 --> 01:21:21,413 Speaker 23: strong emphasis on grown. So I tried as much as 1484 01:21:21,453 --> 01:21:24,453 Speaker 23: possible for New Zealand grown too, but New Zealand made 1485 01:21:24,653 --> 01:21:25,733 Speaker 23: was that absolute. 1486 01:21:26,413 --> 01:21:30,333 Speaker 2: So just how easy was this? It was? 1487 01:21:30,653 --> 01:21:33,253 Speaker 23: To be honest, it was easier than I thought in 1488 01:21:33,293 --> 01:21:38,613 Speaker 23: some ways when you look around it almost it almost 1489 01:21:38,693 --> 01:21:41,613 Speaker 23: felt like it was harder when I was doing kind 1490 01:21:41,653 --> 01:21:46,613 Speaker 23: of more staunch, plastic free challenges. So it felt easier 1491 01:21:46,613 --> 01:21:52,253 Speaker 23: to find New Zealand made food. But again it almost 1492 01:21:52,333 --> 01:21:56,373 Speaker 23: sometimes felt too easy because of the labeling. It would 1493 01:21:56,373 --> 01:22:00,373 Speaker 23: say made in New Zealand from local and important ingredients, 1494 01:22:00,733 --> 01:22:04,653 Speaker 23: and I started to feel really kind of challenged about 1495 01:22:04,693 --> 01:22:09,573 Speaker 23: the labeling and not act being able to know is this, yeah, 1496 01:22:09,613 --> 01:22:11,573 Speaker 23: how much of this is actually New Zealand grown? And 1497 01:22:11,613 --> 01:22:14,453 Speaker 23: it was very very vague, So I found that part 1498 01:22:14,933 --> 01:22:18,053 Speaker 23: kind of hard, and that meant I kept a lot 1499 01:22:18,053 --> 01:22:21,773 Speaker 23: to just eating, you know, kind of raw, not getting 1500 01:22:21,853 --> 01:22:25,733 Speaker 23: raw foods, cooking them, but just the basics like vegetables 1501 01:22:25,333 --> 01:22:29,893 Speaker 23: and meat and grains that I knew were grown here. 1502 01:22:30,693 --> 01:22:33,933 Speaker 23: So yeah, the labeling was a big, big challenge, but 1503 01:22:34,053 --> 01:22:38,973 Speaker 23: I think it's one of my favorite challenges I've done 1504 01:22:39,013 --> 01:22:42,173 Speaker 23: so far. I've done a year of no new clothes 1505 01:22:42,333 --> 01:22:46,213 Speaker 23: and minimalist challenges and things like that, but this has 1506 01:22:46,413 --> 01:22:51,653 Speaker 23: really given me some good new habits going into twenty 1507 01:22:51,693 --> 01:22:55,893 Speaker 23: twenty five and beyond to actually not just look at, okay, 1508 01:22:55,973 --> 01:22:58,253 Speaker 23: where is my produce grown, which I think we're all 1509 01:22:58,253 --> 01:23:00,373 Speaker 23: pretty good at in New Zealand when we're in the 1510 01:23:00,373 --> 01:23:04,173 Speaker 23: produce section, but actually looking at our food and labeling too. 1511 01:23:04,853 --> 01:23:07,773 Speaker 23: I really hope we get better that and there's more 1512 01:23:08,013 --> 01:23:12,293 Speaker 23: laws around what people can put on their products. But 1513 01:23:12,333 --> 01:23:17,653 Speaker 23: I've missed some foods like bananas and you know, like 1514 01:23:18,093 --> 01:23:20,653 Speaker 23: black tea. We have one producer here in New Zealand, 1515 01:23:21,133 --> 01:23:22,973 Speaker 23: but yeah, just things like that which are a bit 1516 01:23:23,013 --> 01:23:23,893 Speaker 23: harder to find. 1517 01:23:24,293 --> 01:23:26,173 Speaker 2: I was going to ask whether it allowed for a 1518 01:23:26,213 --> 01:23:28,093 Speaker 2: good variety in your in your diet. 1519 01:23:29,013 --> 01:23:33,413 Speaker 23: Yeah, I think at the start I was. I was 1520 01:23:33,493 --> 01:23:36,773 Speaker 23: feeling the lack of variety. I missed rice a lot 1521 01:23:38,253 --> 01:23:42,493 Speaker 23: because we don't have investigated people who have been attempting 1522 01:23:42,573 --> 01:23:45,333 Speaker 23: to grow rice, which we can, but it's just the 1523 01:23:45,373 --> 01:23:48,573 Speaker 23: machinery around the husking that rice to make it a 1524 01:23:48,613 --> 01:23:52,413 Speaker 23: commercial and edible product. It's difficult, but maybe we'll get there. 1525 01:23:52,853 --> 01:23:55,973 Speaker 23: So yeah, Keenwa, I really love and it's even better 1526 01:23:56,053 --> 01:23:59,373 Speaker 23: for your body, it's even more nutritious. But I did 1527 01:23:59,453 --> 01:24:02,413 Speaker 23: get a little bit sick of it. After Yeah, probably 1528 01:24:02,453 --> 01:24:04,573 Speaker 23: after the sixth month, I was like, oh, how many 1529 01:24:04,613 --> 01:24:07,853 Speaker 23: ways can I cook inga What about? 1530 01:24:08,333 --> 01:24:11,493 Speaker 2: What about cost? Kate, did you notice any difference in 1531 01:24:11,573 --> 01:24:12,973 Speaker 2: sort of what it cost you to eat? 1532 01:24:14,013 --> 01:24:14,213 Speaker 7: Yeah? 1533 01:24:14,253 --> 01:24:18,133 Speaker 23: That was a tricky one for me because I'm already celiac, 1534 01:24:18,293 --> 01:24:20,653 Speaker 23: so I have to eat a gluten free diet. So 1535 01:24:20,773 --> 01:24:24,173 Speaker 23: my food, you know, a loaf of bread for me 1536 01:24:24,453 --> 01:24:27,613 Speaker 23: as a Celiac is you know, ten to twelve dollars 1537 01:24:27,733 --> 01:24:30,053 Speaker 23: instead of I don't know what a normal of spread 1538 01:24:30,093 --> 01:24:33,093 Speaker 23: costs these days of wheat four, but you know it's 1539 01:24:33,213 --> 01:24:36,053 Speaker 23: maybe a third of that price, so it has hard 1540 01:24:36,493 --> 01:24:38,933 Speaker 23: I know I can't do kind of exact comparison for 1541 01:24:39,013 --> 01:24:43,093 Speaker 23: the everyday person, but I think, honestly, I don't think 1542 01:24:43,133 --> 01:24:46,693 Speaker 23: it's as expensive as everyone thought it would be. Because 1543 01:24:46,733 --> 01:24:49,373 Speaker 23: that was the first question. They're like, oh, you know, 1544 01:24:49,653 --> 01:24:52,013 Speaker 23: it's all right for some who can afford it, But 1545 01:24:52,613 --> 01:24:55,493 Speaker 23: I think because you then just say no to non 1546 01:24:55,533 --> 01:24:59,053 Speaker 23: seasonal things. You know, you're not spending extravagant amounts on 1547 01:24:59,733 --> 01:25:03,373 Speaker 23: a pineapple in June or you know, a punnet of 1548 01:25:03,453 --> 01:25:07,933 Speaker 23: strawberries in July. You were just eating seas meaning it's 1549 01:25:08,293 --> 01:25:10,733 Speaker 23: cheap in that season because there's an abundance of it, 1550 01:25:11,333 --> 01:25:14,053 Speaker 23: So that also I think has connected me more to 1551 01:25:14,093 --> 01:25:17,973 Speaker 23: the seasons and understanding. You know, like I got in 1552 01:25:17,973 --> 01:25:21,653 Speaker 23: this veggie box from Misfit which is all Misfit kind 1553 01:25:21,653 --> 01:25:25,933 Speaker 23: of vegetables directly from the farmers just yesterday some nectarines, 1554 01:25:26,493 --> 01:25:29,573 Speaker 23: and I'm so excited for the stone fruit kind of season. 1555 01:25:29,693 --> 01:25:34,613 Speaker 23: And I now really far more kind of associate different 1556 01:25:34,653 --> 01:25:38,613 Speaker 23: seasons with those foods. And yeah, I really don't think. 1557 01:25:38,653 --> 01:25:41,373 Speaker 23: I think it's quite a myth that New Zealand made 1558 01:25:41,413 --> 01:25:45,133 Speaker 23: food is more expensive and just got to try it 1559 01:25:45,173 --> 01:25:48,173 Speaker 23: and you'll see that actually it can mean that you're 1560 01:25:48,213 --> 01:25:50,373 Speaker 23: saying no to a lot of those extra foods you're 1561 01:25:50,453 --> 01:25:52,413 Speaker 23: thrown you're trolley without thinking. 1562 01:25:53,013 --> 01:25:56,213 Speaker 2: And Kate, was it time consuming challenge? 1563 01:25:56,933 --> 01:26:01,533 Speaker 23: Yeah, it was time consuming, mainly because the labels are 1564 01:26:01,573 --> 01:26:04,613 Speaker 23: really hard to read. So at the satura the year, 1565 01:26:04,773 --> 01:26:09,053 Speaker 23: at about seven am and a local supermarket opened, I 1566 01:26:09,093 --> 01:26:11,013 Speaker 23: went to my bike to the supermarket and I just 1567 01:26:11,053 --> 01:26:14,453 Speaker 23: spent probably an hour and a half just reading labels 1568 01:26:14,653 --> 01:26:18,053 Speaker 23: and understanding what I could buy what was there. I 1569 01:26:18,173 --> 01:26:20,933 Speaker 23: determined that a whole lot of rice crackers mainly made 1570 01:26:20,973 --> 01:26:24,733 Speaker 23: in Thailand, so those out of the question and just yeah, 1571 01:26:24,853 --> 01:26:27,413 Speaker 23: took that time. But I do these challenges so that 1572 01:26:28,013 --> 01:26:31,133 Speaker 23: I can do that, you know, work and research up 1573 01:26:31,133 --> 01:26:34,853 Speaker 23: front so other people can understand things too. So of 1574 01:26:35,053 --> 01:26:39,133 Speaker 23: made a blog of over one hundred different New Zealand 1575 01:26:39,173 --> 01:26:43,093 Speaker 23: made food producers and so hopefully you know, yeah again 1576 01:26:43,213 --> 01:26:46,093 Speaker 23: this book that I've done this year, I've spent the 1577 01:26:46,133 --> 01:26:48,893 Speaker 23: times that others don't have to to know that actually 1578 01:26:48,933 --> 01:26:51,373 Speaker 23: it is possible with me, don't have to be absolute 1579 01:26:51,373 --> 01:26:55,373 Speaker 23: about it. I actually need to confess all so that 1580 01:26:55,493 --> 01:27:01,693 Speaker 23: I have bought some things like rice because several months 1581 01:27:01,693 --> 01:27:06,373 Speaker 23: ago I felt pregnant and the first trimester was very 1582 01:27:06,653 --> 01:27:11,053 Speaker 23: had with food. Even looking at vegetables was yeah, ad 1583 01:27:11,093 --> 01:27:15,053 Speaker 23: bots make gag reflexes. So I had to be kind 1584 01:27:15,093 --> 01:27:17,733 Speaker 23: on my body and though that actually I can keep 1585 01:27:17,773 --> 01:27:21,213 Speaker 23: doing the challenge, but with a few little things thrown 1586 01:27:21,253 --> 01:27:23,133 Speaker 23: in there, so that that's my commission. 1587 01:27:23,533 --> 01:27:25,453 Speaker 2: I'm not good on you for confessing it, but I 1588 01:27:25,493 --> 01:27:30,653 Speaker 2: think everybody will totally forgive you for that. Kate, congratulations 1589 01:27:30,693 --> 01:27:34,453 Speaker 2: on the pregnancy.

It is sixteen past eleven travel. 1593 01:27:43,813 --> 01:27:47,973 Speaker 1: With Wendy Woo Tours, unique fully inclusive tours around the world. 1594 01:27:49,573 --> 01:27:51,773 Speaker 2: Just before we get to travel, it is an absolutely 1595 01:27:51,813 --> 01:27:53,933 Speaker 2: beautiful day in Wellington. But that's about the only good 1596 01:27:53,933 --> 01:27:56,453 Speaker 2: news I have for you from the Basin Reserve. The 1597 01:27:56,493 --> 01:28:01,093 Speaker 2: black Caps are our ninety seven four seven, of course 1598 01:28:01,093 --> 01:28:04,373 Speaker 2: playing England there in the second test. Jasan pinealval with us. 1599 01:28:04,373 --> 01:28:06,933 Speaker 2: Shortly to talk sport, but time to talk travel now. 1600 01:28:07,373 --> 01:28:08,333 Speaker 2: Mike Yardley is with me. 1601 01:28:08,413 --> 01:28:12,053 Speaker 24: Good morning, Good morning, Francisco. I'm so depressed by the CREC. 1602 01:28:12,333 --> 01:28:15,733 Speaker 2: Yeah no, yes, just let's talk about penguins, because penguins 1603 01:28:15,813 --> 01:28:19,573 Speaker 2: just make you feel good, right, yes, a feel good animal. 1604 01:28:19,733 --> 01:28:23,053 Speaker 2: And in summertime it is a great time to enjoy 1605 01:28:23,093 --> 01:28:25,573 Speaker 2: the penguin colony in Rrow. 1606 01:28:26,693 --> 01:28:29,973 Speaker 24: It is ground zero for flippand fun. I have to 1607 01:28:30,013 --> 01:28:34,613 Speaker 24: say my first job in Radio Francisca was in AWMDUV 1608 01:28:34,693 --> 01:28:37,693 Speaker 24: in the early nineties, so it's amazing to see how 1609 01:28:37,733 --> 01:28:40,093 Speaker 24: that colony has really kicked on because when I was 1610 01:28:40,093 --> 01:28:43,533 Speaker 24: there there were only about thirty breeding pears. Today these 1611 01:28:43,733 --> 01:28:48,773 Speaker 24: hundreds of breeding pears, they've been busy breeding over the decades, 1612 01:28:49,653 --> 01:28:53,373 Speaker 24: so that nightly penguin parade as the birds come home 1613 01:28:53,373 --> 01:28:58,173 Speaker 24: from the sea is lavish and intimate. In the summer 1614 01:28:58,213 --> 01:29:01,693 Speaker 24: months is peak season for the nightly parade because at 1615 01:29:01,693 --> 01:29:05,093 Speaker 24: the moment I checked, therese over three hundred and fifty 1616 01:29:05,133 --> 01:29:09,693 Speaker 24: penguins coming ashore right before you each night to return home. 1617 01:29:09,773 --> 01:29:12,253 Speaker 24: So it's a really riveting encounter at sundown. 1618 01:29:12,373 --> 01:29:14,613 Speaker 2: They did the blue penguins, aren't they. That's the smallest 1619 01:29:14,613 --> 01:29:15,213 Speaker 2: penguin in the. 1620 01:29:15,133 --> 01:29:17,213 Speaker 24: World, little blue yep carara. 1621 01:29:17,573 --> 01:29:18,453 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1622 01:29:18,533 --> 01:29:20,013 Speaker 2: But this other wildlife there too. 1623 01:29:19,893 --> 01:29:20,133 Speaker 6: Isn't it? 1624 01:29:20,973 --> 01:29:21,613 Speaker 7: Well? There is. 1625 01:29:21,653 --> 01:29:24,133 Speaker 24: The really cool thing about the summer months for the 1626 01:29:24,173 --> 01:29:26,773 Speaker 24: penguin parade is that as they scamper up the rocks 1627 01:29:26,933 --> 01:29:30,173 Speaker 24: like nervous Nigel's, they have to generally navigate their way 1628 01:29:30,173 --> 01:29:33,293 Speaker 24: around all sorts of bellowing fur seals who also sort 1629 01:29:33,333 --> 01:29:37,213 Speaker 24: of park up hit the same site. So it's a 1630 01:29:37,293 --> 01:29:40,733 Speaker 24: really cool little primal interaction. The seals do not eat 1631 01:29:40,973 --> 01:29:44,573 Speaker 24: the penguins, I hasten to add and then just adjacent 1632 01:29:44,613 --> 01:29:49,133 Speaker 24: to the penguin colony for a true dramatic spectacle. Sumter 1633 01:29:49,293 --> 01:29:52,813 Speaker 24: Wharf is amazing. So this was like a Victorian era 1634 01:29:52,973 --> 01:29:56,053 Speaker 24: wharf where a lot of our early frozen meat exports 1635 01:29:56,053 --> 01:29:58,813 Speaker 24: were shipped off to the world. Nowadays it's a relic, 1636 01:29:58,853 --> 01:30:01,493 Speaker 24: it's a deer. It's wharf, but it's been consumed by 1637 01:30:01,533 --> 01:30:06,533 Speaker 24: the birds. So there are thousands of Otago shags that 1638 01:30:06,533 --> 01:30:09,413 Speaker 24: have commentared the wharf. They've been busy breeding. There's lots 1639 01:30:09,413 --> 01:30:12,293 Speaker 24: of chicks in their nests on the wharf at the moment. 1640 01:30:12,413 --> 01:30:16,853 Speaker 24: It's the world's biggest Otago shag colony. It is a 1641 01:30:17,093 --> 01:30:19,893 Speaker 24: chagathon of epic proportions. 1642 01:30:20,333 --> 01:30:22,733 Speaker 2: Whenever I think of Armora as well, I think of 1643 01:30:22,853 --> 01:30:27,813 Speaker 2: the Victorian buildings there, those amazing historic buildings made out 1644 01:30:27,853 --> 01:30:28,853 Speaker 2: of limestone. 1645 01:30:29,333 --> 01:30:32,453 Speaker 24: Yeah that's right. Yeah, you've got those gorgeous old stately 1646 01:30:32,693 --> 01:30:35,133 Speaker 24: banks in the Opera House on Thames Street. And then 1647 01:30:35,253 --> 01:30:38,253 Speaker 24: just around the corner on harborst Street. That is the 1648 01:30:38,293 --> 01:30:41,453 Speaker 24: heart of the Victorian precinct because Harbor Street is home 1649 01:30:41,493 --> 01:30:47,533 Speaker 24: to New Zealand's best preserved Victorian commercial streetscape brilliantly restored 1650 01:30:47,573 --> 01:30:50,773 Speaker 24: and repurposed, so it just brims with galleries and artisans 1651 01:30:50,773 --> 01:30:53,573 Speaker 24: on hospit. My favorite stops, I have to say, do 1652 01:30:53,693 --> 01:31:00,693 Speaker 24: involve drinking, so there is surprise. There is the Craftwork Brewery, 1653 01:31:01,133 --> 01:31:04,773 Speaker 24: which is a Belgian inspired the brewery really cool spot. 1654 01:31:05,213 --> 01:31:09,613 Speaker 24: And then this stirring the hospitality treasure, the Criterion Hotel. 1655 01:31:09,893 --> 01:31:12,813 Speaker 24: Now this pub has been pouring pint since the eighteen 1656 01:31:13,133 --> 01:31:18,253 Speaker 24: seventies in the same building. It's been beautifully revitalized, really 1657 01:31:18,413 --> 01:31:23,013 Speaker 24: elegantly furnished, and all of its storied history is sported 1658 01:31:23,053 --> 01:31:25,093 Speaker 24: on the walls of the bar and the etery. The 1659 01:31:25,173 --> 01:31:28,293 Speaker 24: etery itself is fabulous because it's just like a hymn 1660 01:31:28,293 --> 01:31:31,693 Speaker 24: to the region's produce. I would suggest you whistle up 1661 01:31:32,173 --> 01:31:35,333 Speaker 24: and Alps to Ocean platter, and that way you can 1662 01:31:35,373 --> 01:31:38,173 Speaker 24: sample a bit of everything and wash it down with 1663 01:31:38,253 --> 01:31:41,853 Speaker 24: a Criterion black Doris plum cider. 1664 01:31:42,413 --> 01:31:44,813 Speaker 2: Have you done the Alps to Alpine trail? 1665 01:31:45,253 --> 01:31:46,933 Speaker 24: Sorry, not the whole hog? 1666 01:31:47,213 --> 01:31:50,533 Speaker 2: No, No, I'm quite interested in that anyway, and that's 1667 01:31:50,533 --> 01:31:51,253 Speaker 2: for another day. 1668 01:31:51,493 --> 01:31:53,933 Speaker 24: Anywhere else, I've got my trainer wheels on franchise. 1669 01:31:56,893 --> 01:31:58,773 Speaker 2: Anywhere else that you recommend to eat? 1670 01:31:59,213 --> 01:32:02,253 Speaker 24: A couple of coick tips from age fans are white 1671 01:32:02,253 --> 01:32:04,653 Speaker 24: Stone cheese. The name will be very well known to 1672 01:32:04,653 --> 01:32:06,653 Speaker 24: a lot of Kiwis because it's been a main day 1673 01:32:06,653 --> 01:32:10,133 Speaker 24: of the New Zealand Premium cheese scene for about four decades. 1674 01:32:10,173 --> 01:32:13,293 Speaker 24: It's globally, it claims this cheese company. I've got twenty 1675 01:32:13,293 --> 01:32:16,653 Speaker 24: five varieties to nibble on and for the full glory experience, 1676 01:32:16,693 --> 01:32:19,013 Speaker 24: the place to go is the white Stone Cheese Diner 1677 01:32:19,173 --> 01:32:21,973 Speaker 24: in Deli. It's on Thames Street. You can whistle up 1678 01:32:21,973 --> 01:32:24,893 Speaker 24: a high cheese as you do, and I have to 1679 01:32:24,893 --> 01:32:29,613 Speaker 24: say it via double cream. Bree is unbeatable. One other 1680 01:32:29,693 --> 01:32:33,293 Speaker 24: culinary rock star to add to your checklist. Riverstone, just 1681 01:32:33,333 --> 01:32:35,773 Speaker 24: at the north of Olamado. Bevan Smith is still at 1682 01:32:35,813 --> 01:32:38,133 Speaker 24: the helmet that kitchen on his parents' farm. All of 1683 01:32:38,133 --> 01:32:40,613 Speaker 24: the produces hyper local because a lot of it comes 1684 01:32:40,653 --> 01:32:43,613 Speaker 24: from the adjoining gardens. But it was really funny, Francesco. 1685 01:32:43,653 --> 01:32:45,333 Speaker 24: A lot of locals said to me, they just go 1686 01:32:45,413 --> 01:32:46,613 Speaker 24: to Riverstone to eat the cake. 1687 01:32:47,333 --> 01:32:48,773 Speaker 4: The cakes are so good. 1688 01:32:49,373 --> 01:32:54,773 Speaker 24: So I had to and I surrendered to a slice 1689 01:32:55,133 --> 01:33:00,613 Speaker 24: of gooseberry and black currant shortcake with vanilla bean ice cream. God, 1690 01:33:00,653 --> 01:33:01,173 Speaker 24: it was good. 1691 01:33:02,613 --> 01:33:04,773 Speaker 2: Hey, was there anything else unique about. 1692 01:33:06,413 --> 01:33:10,173 Speaker 24: Well, it is Steampunk Headquarters. So the Victorian Precinct has 1693 01:33:10,213 --> 01:33:14,213 Speaker 24: got this outfit called Steampunk HQ. It is wacky, it's whimsical, 1694 01:33:14,253 --> 01:33:18,853 Speaker 24: it's eccentric. It starts with this full scale train engine 1695 01:33:18,853 --> 01:33:23,453 Speaker 24: outside the front, spitting fire and billowing smoke, and then 1696 01:33:23,933 --> 01:33:26,453 Speaker 24: inside you've got a museum of all sorts of weird 1697 01:33:26,533 --> 01:33:30,893 Speaker 24: contraptions and bizarre machinery, lots of copper and flickering lights, 1698 01:33:31,293 --> 01:33:33,213 Speaker 24: and out the back a whole lot of projects that 1699 01:33:33,293 --> 01:33:36,893 Speaker 24: are in various stages of being steampunked. It's sort of 1700 01:33:37,013 --> 01:33:41,733 Speaker 24: like a cross of industrial age, Victoriana and science fiction. 1701 01:33:42,013 --> 01:33:45,213 Speaker 24: And in fact, their website's probably got the best piece 1702 01:33:45,213 --> 01:33:49,813 Speaker 24: of advice steampunk must be experienced rather than explained. 1703 01:33:50,053 --> 01:33:51,173 Speaker 4: I think that's very you. 1704 01:33:51,413 --> 01:33:53,413 Speaker 2: I think that is so true.

It 1713 01:34:20,093 --> 01:34:24,293 Speaker 24: is just breathtaking.

This team has 1779 01:37:51,053 --> 01:37:54,893 Speaker 2: launched itself both on the field and to be drawing 1780 01:37:54,893 --> 01:37:55,493 Speaker 2: these crowds. 1781 01:37:55,613 --> 01:37:57,333 Speaker 5: Yep, absolutely no one expected it. 1782 01:37:57,413 --> 01:37:57,773 Speaker 2: I did it. 1783 01:37:57,813 --> 01:37:57,933 Speaker 4: No. 1784 01:37:58,053 --> 01:37:59,293 Speaker 2: I didn't read the room on this. I thought it 1785 01:37:59,293 --> 01:38:00,813 Speaker 2: would take them years to build an audience. 1786 01:38:00,813 --> 01:38:02,413 Speaker 13: Well, if you compare it to the last two teams 1787 01:38:02,413 --> 01:38:03,893 Speaker 13: that came into the A League over the last four 1788 01:38:03,933 --> 01:38:07,533 Speaker 13: or five seasons, Western United and mccar based out of 1789 01:38:07,653 --> 01:38:11,533 Speaker 13: Melbourne and Sydney respectively, they got crowds initially of sort 1790 01:38:11,533 --> 01:38:13,613 Speaker 13: of four or five thousand, and that's what that's where 1791 01:38:13,613 --> 01:38:15,893 Speaker 13: it stayed. Here's Auckland, you know, sold out the first 1792 01:38:15,933 --> 01:38:18,693 Speaker 13: game year, called a lot of RRR and rasumetas around 1793 01:38:18,693 --> 01:38:21,293 Speaker 13: the first game, but it's been can continued. Thirteen thousand 1794 01:38:21,333 --> 01:38:23,293 Speaker 13: turn out in the rain last week, the pouring rain 1795 01:38:23,333 --> 01:38:25,413 Speaker 13: to watch them play twenty six this afternoon. 1796 01:38:25,533 --> 01:38:26,013 Speaker 5: On the field. 1797 01:38:26,013 --> 01:38:27,933 Speaker 13: It does help if you're winning, it helps people want 1798 01:38:27,973 --> 01:38:30,213 Speaker 13: to jump on a bandwagon. But I get the feeling 1799 01:38:30,213 --> 01:38:33,453 Speaker 13: that even even with and when they lose the old game, 1800 01:38:33,453 --> 01:38:35,573 Speaker 13: people will still turn up because it's become this occasion. 1801 01:38:35,893 --> 01:38:38,213 Speaker 2: Is it evenly matched this afternoon? Of course we've got 1802 01:38:38,573 --> 01:38:41,413 Speaker 2: Auckland FC currently top of the table, Wellington. 1803 01:38:41,173 --> 01:38:44,613 Speaker 5: Fourth at very even Ok. Yeah, there are two very 1804 01:38:44,613 --> 01:38:45,733 Speaker 5: good defensive sides. 1805 01:38:45,973 --> 01:38:47,493 Speaker 13: So I get the feeling this one won't be a 1806 01:38:47,533 --> 01:38:50,613 Speaker 13: sort of a five to four thriller, but it may 1807 01:38:50,653 --> 01:38:52,293 Speaker 13: well be broken open by one of two things. A 1808 01:38:52,293 --> 01:38:54,933 Speaker 13: moment of magic or a mistake. That's what happened in 1809 01:38:54,933 --> 01:38:57,453 Speaker 13: the first RB and Wellington goalkeeping mistake broke the game open. 1810 01:38:57,533 --> 01:38:59,333 Speaker 13: Auckland took advantage one at two nil. 1811 01:38:59,133 --> 01:38:59,493 Speaker 7: In the end. 1812 01:39:00,453 --> 01:39:04,533 Speaker 13: Yeah, there are so many there's so many layers to 1813 01:39:04,533 --> 01:39:07,813 Speaker 13: this game this afternoon. The players know each other so well. 1814 01:39:08,493 --> 01:39:11,293 Speaker 13: To New Zealand sides, there's nine hundred yellow Fever coming 1815 01:39:11,293 --> 01:39:11,853 Speaker 13: to this game. 1816 01:39:12,493 --> 01:39:12,693 Speaker 5: You know. 1817 01:39:12,853 --> 01:39:15,613 Speaker 13: Wellington have been bringing games to Aukland for ages. They've 1818 01:39:15,653 --> 01:39:19,013 Speaker 13: brought eighteen games here. Now for the first time they're 1819 01:39:19,013 --> 01:39:20,653 Speaker 13: here is the Await team. This is going to be 1820 01:39:20,693 --> 01:39:22,053 Speaker 13: an absolute. 1821 01:39:21,613 --> 01:39:23,493 Speaker 2: I love the way you described that, a moment of 1822 01:39:23,533 --> 01:39:26,133 Speaker 2: magic or a mistake. It kind of sums up my life. 1823 01:39:29,013 --> 01:39:29,613 Speaker 2: It's brilliant. 1824 01:39:29,773 --> 01:39:32,333 Speaker 13: Who's on the show today, we'll go inside both camps 1825 01:39:33,093 --> 01:39:35,893 Speaker 13: with Costa Barbarusa, Sernando Pineke.

Good morning, Catherine, Morning, Francesca. David Baldacci has 1844 01:40:20,933 --> 01:40:21,933 Speaker 2: a new book out. 1845 01:40:23,493 --> 01:40:26,173 Speaker 25: He does and this is this third in his Travis 1846 01:40:26,173 --> 01:40:29,573 Speaker 25: Devine series and Travis has a very impressive background. He 1847 01:40:29,653 --> 01:40:31,853 Speaker 25: served as an arranger, he's worked on Wall Street, and 1848 01:40:31,893 --> 01:40:35,573 Speaker 25: he's currently what they probably term a fixer with Homeland Security. 1849 01:40:35,773 --> 01:40:38,853 Speaker 25: And he's also because he's this kind of guy trying 1850 01:40:38,853 --> 01:40:41,813 Speaker 25: to evade an assassin on his trail who's only known 1851 01:40:41,893 --> 01:40:44,733 Speaker 25: as the Girl on the Train. And Travis is sent 1852 01:40:44,813 --> 01:40:47,493 Speaker 25: to Seattle by his boss to for what seems a 1853 01:40:47,573 --> 01:40:51,093 Speaker 25: very straightfall job helping the FBI escort a young girl, 1854 01:40:51,133 --> 01:40:53,853 Speaker 25: a twelve year old named Betsy Odum to meeting with 1855 01:40:53,893 --> 01:40:57,533 Speaker 25: her wealthy business man Danny Glass. And Glass is accused 1856 01:40:57,533 --> 01:41:00,973 Speaker 25: of racketeering drug smuggling, and he awaits charges a trial 1857 01:41:01,013 --> 01:41:04,173 Speaker 25: on multiple charges in Washington State, and he's seeking custody 1858 01:41:04,213 --> 01:41:06,813 Speaker 25: of Betsy following the death of her peers in a 1859 01:41:06,933 --> 01:41:10,973 Speaker 25: supposed drug overdose. And as Travis de dalves deeper, he 1860 01:41:11,013 --> 01:41:14,013 Speaker 25: suspects our player around Betsy's parents' death. There's things that 1861 01:41:14,093 --> 01:41:16,613 Speaker 25: don't add up, and what's Betsy's saying about what happened 1862 01:41:16,653 --> 01:41:19,173 Speaker 25: really doesn't add up. And so what starts as a 1863 01:41:19,213 --> 01:41:21,853 Speaker 25: really routine mission all of a sudden escalates into something 1864 01:41:21,933 --> 01:41:24,893 Speaker 25: much darker and more dangerous, and he starts to uncover 1865 01:41:24,973 --> 01:41:27,453 Speaker 25: this web of secrets, and it's an action packed story 1866 01:41:27,533 --> 01:41:30,413 Speaker 25: with lots of twists and turns and an enormous dose 1867 01:41:30,453 --> 01:41:32,733 Speaker 25: of tension. And it's a great page turning thriller. 1868 01:41:32,853 --> 01:41:34,933 Speaker 2: Okay. So if someone gave me this for Christmas and 1869 01:41:34,933 --> 01:41:37,293 Speaker 2: I hadn't read the first two books, would it matter? 1870 01:41:37,813 --> 01:41:40,053 Speaker 25: No, it doesn't matter at all, and pick them up anywhere. 1871 01:41:40,133 --> 01:41:44,493 Speaker 2: Okay. Brilliant. Now, Matt Wyman, he has co written books 1872 01:41:44,533 --> 01:41:46,933 Speaker 2: with some of the world's leading figures in sport, and 1873 01:41:46,973 --> 01:41:49,813 Speaker 2: he has been embedded with the Mercedes IF one team 1874 01:41:50,253 --> 01:41:52,733 Speaker 2: for twenty twenty three and twenty twenty four, and he 1875 01:41:52,813 --> 01:41:54,493 Speaker 2: has new book out. 1876 01:41:55,453 --> 01:41:58,293 Speaker 25: He does so he after writing many of the books 1877 01:41:58,333 --> 01:42:00,053 Speaker 25: that he did, and you know the research that he's done, 1878 01:42:00,053 --> 01:42:02,933 Speaker 25: he's now very focused on the Mercedes AMG Patrona's IF 1879 01:42:02,973 --> 01:42:05,493 Speaker 25: one team and he spends, as you said, a year 1880 01:42:05,613 --> 01:42:09,573 Speaker 25: embedded with and he chronicles individual race weekends and story 1881 01:42:09,733 --> 01:42:11,733 Speaker 25: with his time with the team's personnel. 1882 01:42:12,653 --> 01:42:14,333 Speaker 17: And he packs. 1883 01:42:14,013 --> 01:42:17,173 Speaker 25: Mercedes at a time where they had won eight Constructors 1884 01:42:17,253 --> 01:42:19,533 Speaker 25: Championships and that ended for them in twenty twenty one, 1885 01:42:20,093 --> 01:42:22,453 Speaker 25: and so this book covers a period when the winning's 1886 01:42:22,493 --> 01:42:25,053 Speaker 25: over and Mercedes are really on the back foot, and 1887 01:42:25,093 --> 01:42:27,933 Speaker 25: he talks about their culture and determination and that resilience 1888 01:42:27,933 --> 01:42:30,413 Speaker 25: of the team. And the first sort of chapter includes 1889 01:42:30,453 --> 01:42:32,533 Speaker 25: a lot of scene setting and background information about the 1890 01:42:32,573 --> 01:42:34,573 Speaker 25: team and the support of F one, and I felt 1891 01:42:34,613 --> 01:42:37,653 Speaker 25: like the book was targeted at a much wider audience 1892 01:42:37,733 --> 01:42:40,253 Speaker 25: than just F one of Fersonalitio. So probably all of 1893 01:42:40,293 --> 01:42:43,053 Speaker 25: us that watch Drive to Survive on Netflix would be 1894 01:42:43,213 --> 01:42:46,333 Speaker 25: this is the perfect kind of book. And it's told, 1895 01:42:46,493 --> 01:42:49,133 Speaker 25: as I mentioned before, the backdrop of those races across 1896 01:42:49,173 --> 01:42:52,453 Speaker 25: that season and focusing on the individuals and their particular 1897 01:42:52,533 --> 01:42:54,973 Speaker 25: roles in the team. So he talks to mechanics and 1898 01:42:55,013 --> 01:42:57,613 Speaker 25: engineers and strategist and the pit crew and majastics and 1899 01:42:57,653 --> 01:43:00,493 Speaker 25: pr folks, and then he also talks to Total Wolf, 1900 01:43:00,493 --> 01:43:02,653 Speaker 25: who's the principal of the team, and he captures all 1901 01:43:02,693 --> 01:43:05,773 Speaker 25: of those personalities and what's really interesting is some of 1902 01:43:05,773 --> 01:43:07,733 Speaker 25: the personal crowns of the people on the team and 1903 01:43:07,773 --> 01:43:10,693 Speaker 25: the passions and why they're in F one. And so 1904 01:43:10,773 --> 01:43:13,693 Speaker 25: with the interviews with people like the team principal Toto Wolf, 1905 01:43:13,693 --> 01:43:17,133 Speaker 25: and the drivers George Rushall and Lewis Hamilton, and yeah, 1906 01:43:17,893 --> 01:43:21,493 Speaker 25: really interesting tales. And also included in this was Hamilton's 1907 01:43:21,493 --> 01:43:24,613 Speaker 25: surprise move to decide to design for Ferrari, and so 1908 01:43:24,613 --> 01:43:27,493 Speaker 25: it's covered in lots of detail from both Hamilton. 1909 01:43:27,133 --> 01:43:29,893 Speaker 2: And Wolf's right up to date, right. 1910 01:43:29,773 --> 01:43:32,413 Speaker 25: Up to date. And yeah, it's written really well, and 1911 01:43:32,453 --> 01:43:35,173 Speaker 25: you feel like you have not part of the team, 1912 01:43:35,253 --> 01:43:37,373 Speaker 25: but you know part of the inside knowledge of how 1913 01:43:37,373 --> 01:43:41,693 Speaker 25: the team works because previously, before really Drive to Survive, 1914 01:43:42,013 --> 01:43:44,573 Speaker 25: these teams were very private. So actually you find a 1915 01:43:44,573 --> 01:43:46,453 Speaker 25: lot of information and a lot of things that you 1916 01:43:46,493 --> 01:43:50,013 Speaker 25: wouldn't necessarily get to see or hear about. And you 1917 01:43:50,053 --> 01:43:52,653 Speaker 25: know how things work and what goes on behind an 1918 01:43:52,733 --> 01:43:53,293 Speaker 25: F one team. 1919 01:43:53,373 --> 01:43:56,613 Speaker 2: Yes, and if you're an F one aficionado like my 1920 01:43:57,253 --> 01:43:59,733 Speaker 2: sixteen year old daughter is, then she will tell you 1921 01:43:59,773 --> 01:44:01,893 Speaker 2: that you don't really get the full story watching Drive 1922 01:44:01,933 --> 01:44:02,733 Speaker 2: to Survive. 1923 01:44:02,493 --> 01:44:05,373 Speaker 11: So no, you don't know, No, you don't. 1924 01:44:05,373 --> 01:44:07,093 Speaker 17: So this has a lot of the the scenes thing. 1925 01:44:07,133 --> 01:44:09,453 Speaker 25: You know, how the driver testing works and the simulators 1926 01:44:09,493 --> 01:44:10,733 Speaker 25: and all that sort of stuff. So because you're a 1927 01:44:10,733 --> 01:44:13,853 Speaker 25: little bit more insight than yeah, Drive to Survive, if one. 1928 01:44:13,853 --> 01:44:16,533 Speaker 2: Does brilliant, Thank you so much, Catherine. Are those two 1929 01:44:16,573 --> 01:44:19,253 Speaker 2: books that Catherine mentioned there to Die For by David 1930 01:44:19,493 --> 01:44:23,413 Speaker 2: Baldacci And also I must mention that he is actually 1931 01:44:23,573 --> 01:44:28,293 Speaker 2: coming to New Zealand.

If you've 1970 01:46:41,093 --> 01:46:44,373 Speaker 27: got great vocals, then I reckon you're you're gonna draw 1971 01:46:44,373 --> 01:46:46,373 Speaker 27: people into your to your album what you've got going on. 1972 01:46:46,773 --> 01:46:49,733 Speaker 2: Absolutely well, that totally got me there. Yeah, But I 1973 01:46:49,933 --> 01:46:52,093 Speaker 2: think that's also great to know because I think we 1974 01:46:52,693 --> 01:46:55,173 Speaker 2: people might be more familiar with some of the more upbeat, 1975 01:46:55,253 --> 01:46:56,213 Speaker 2: full on tracks. 1976 01:46:56,493 --> 01:46:59,893 Speaker 27: Absolutely yeah, and they're on this album Skeletons covers all 1977 01:46:59,973 --> 01:47:03,013 Speaker 27: of that, and it starts with that. You know, you've 1978 01:47:03,013 --> 01:47:07,053 Speaker 27: got those big, huge summer big horn set and then 1979 01:47:07,093 --> 01:47:10,453 Speaker 27: the big percussion comes in and all the voices singing 1980 01:47:10,453 --> 01:47:14,733 Speaker 27: at once. So they've got that reggae dub soul funk 1981 01:47:14,813 --> 01:47:16,493 Speaker 27: kind of thing going on where you can party and 1982 01:47:16,573 --> 01:47:18,853 Speaker 27: dance along. But I sort of think they've also got 1983 01:47:18,853 --> 01:47:21,173 Speaker 27: this awesome set in their album where you know those 1984 01:47:21,173 --> 01:47:22,853 Speaker 27: bits where everyone just needs to take a little bit 1985 01:47:22,893 --> 01:47:24,253 Speaker 27: of a quiet moment and love each other. 1986 01:47:25,893 --> 01:47:27,693 Speaker 2: Hey, tell me a little bit about these guys. I'm 1987 01:47:27,733 --> 01:47:28,933 Speaker 2: not usually familiar with them. 1988 01:47:29,293 --> 01:47:34,573 Speaker 27: Yeah, So Peepee pharo Rawer and Tenaware they actually met 1989 01:47:34,613 --> 01:47:39,333 Speaker 27: in the Royal New Zealand a navy so they're navy people. 1990 01:47:40,093 --> 01:47:43,053 Speaker 27: I think Tenawere, if I'm correct, is still in the Navy. 1991 01:47:43,133 --> 01:47:46,133 Speaker 27: So they actually started doing like a band that did 1992 01:47:46,173 --> 01:47:47,653 Speaker 27: pub covers. 1993 01:47:48,533 --> 01:47:49,213 Speaker 17: So if you can. 1994 01:47:49,093 --> 01:47:50,893 Speaker 27: Master that and get everyone on the dance floor, I 1995 01:47:50,893 --> 01:47:53,373 Speaker 27: reckon it's a great place to start. But they went 1996 01:47:53,493 --> 01:47:56,253 Speaker 27: to one of the one Love festivals, and I think 1997 01:47:56,293 --> 01:47:59,093 Speaker 27: that was the draw card for them, where they're like, actually, 1998 01:47:59,133 --> 01:48:01,893 Speaker 27: we could probably start writing and creating our own music 1999 01:48:02,573 --> 01:48:06,373 Speaker 27: and get up on that stage. Like a cool background 2000 01:48:06,573 --> 01:48:08,693 Speaker 27: to have doing those bands that go and through the 2001 01:48:08,733 --> 01:48:10,573 Speaker 27: pubs and stuff and make everyone happy. But then to 2002 01:48:10,613 --> 01:48:13,293 Speaker 27: start believing in yourself and writing your own music and 2003 01:48:13,333 --> 01:48:16,493 Speaker 27: your own stories. That was the instigator I think for 2004 01:48:16,533 --> 01:48:18,973 Speaker 27: them at the One Love Festival, and then pretty much 2005 01:48:18,973 --> 01:48:23,333 Speaker 27: over the last three years they have just been working, working, working, 2006 01:48:23,373 --> 01:48:29,173 Speaker 27: working to really solidify what their sound is. They won 2007 01:48:29,533 --> 01:48:32,693 Speaker 27: a couple of awards at the Alteredler Music Awards. 2008 01:48:34,213 --> 01:48:34,893 Speaker 2: Was that last. 2009 01:48:34,773 --> 01:48:38,413 Speaker 27: Year, I think it was an't it? 2010 01:48:38,493 --> 01:48:38,693 Speaker 1: Yeah? 2011 01:48:38,733 --> 01:48:40,653 Speaker 27: Yeah, So they won for one of their big singles, 2012 01:48:41,533 --> 01:48:44,613 Speaker 27: blue Eyed Mardy beautiful song and really great and also 2013 01:48:44,613 --> 01:48:48,053 Speaker 27: with that Slight Mardi Humor, and then also one of 2014 01:48:48,093 --> 01:48:51,093 Speaker 27: the Breakthrough Artist Awards. So that sort of helps write 2015 01:48:51,133 --> 01:48:53,893 Speaker 27: catapult you. And I've heard a few interviews with them 2016 01:48:53,933 --> 01:48:56,013 Speaker 27: where they're like, well, this is the bit to remind 2017 01:48:56,053 --> 01:48:58,253 Speaker 27: you that all that hard Mahi, all that hard work 2018 01:48:58,853 --> 01:49:01,373 Speaker 27: does pay off, because suddenly you're starting to get recognition for. 2019 01:49:01,413 --> 01:49:01,893 Speaker 6: What you do. 2020 01:49:02,013 --> 01:49:04,053 Speaker 27: But it also gives you that fizz to be like, yeah, 2021 01:49:04,133 --> 01:49:06,893 Speaker 27: let's keep working and creating more. And I think what 2022 01:49:06,933 --> 01:49:11,053 Speaker 27: they've done with this album is really played and discovered 2023 01:49:11,093 --> 01:49:13,813 Speaker 27: more of what their sound can be. I mean, it's 2024 01:49:13,813 --> 01:49:18,373 Speaker 27: all extremely talented musicians, so they can probably do whatever 2025 01:49:18,413 --> 01:49:22,053 Speaker 27: they want to be fair, but really sticking with that cool, 2026 01:49:22,173 --> 01:49:26,533 Speaker 27: summer festival, fun, upbeat kind of vibe. There's a bit 2027 01:49:26,533 --> 01:49:30,213 Speaker 27: of probably a political social commentary in some of the songs. 2028 01:49:30,853 --> 01:49:34,733 Speaker 27: One's called Cookie. I was listening to it being like, Wow, 2029 01:49:34,893 --> 01:49:37,093 Speaker 27: Cookie's really getting his beans, and then I realized they're 2030 01:49:37,093 --> 01:49:41,453 Speaker 27: talking about Captain Cook. So we've all got our version 2031 01:49:41,493 --> 01:49:44,933 Speaker 27: of history and how to tell that story. But it's 2032 01:49:44,933 --> 01:49:49,133 Speaker 27: a really really catchy song and I liked it, but 2033 01:49:49,213 --> 01:49:51,413 Speaker 27: I think there's, yeah, it's an interesting one to listen 2034 01:49:51,413 --> 01:49:55,373 Speaker 27: to it. There's also a song called two Chuur, and 2035 01:49:55,413 --> 01:49:57,693 Speaker 27: I figure that if someone can sing I'm too sexy, 2036 01:49:57,773 --> 01:49:59,293 Speaker 27: then why can't you sing I'm too. 2037 01:49:59,253 --> 01:50:00,933 Speaker 17: Chuur to chur? 2038 01:50:03,053 --> 01:50:07,293 Speaker 27: It's so good, Like there's those beautiful Kiwi loquialisms. They're 2039 01:50:07,413 --> 01:50:09,413 Speaker 27: just beautiful that you find on this album, and it 2040 01:50:09,453 --> 01:50:11,773 Speaker 27: made me laugh and smile, and I'm like, that's the 2041 01:50:11,813 --> 01:50:14,933 Speaker 27: wonderful thing that music can do as well as celebrating, 2042 01:50:15,653 --> 01:50:18,373 Speaker 27: you know, a really upbeat kind of vibe about someone. 2043 01:50:18,653 --> 01:50:20,853 Speaker 2: Still, this is the second album, isn't it? Yeah, it is, 2044 01:50:21,173 --> 01:50:23,853 Speaker 2: so you've seen quite a step up. Do you think 2045 01:50:23,893 --> 01:50:25,453 Speaker 2: between that first and second album? 2046 01:50:25,773 --> 01:50:27,253 Speaker 27: I think someone do you know what I think it 2047 01:50:27,293 --> 01:50:30,733 Speaker 27: is is confidence in what you're writing. That's often the 2048 01:50:30,853 --> 01:50:33,493 Speaker 27: change that I think happens to people across their albums. 2049 01:50:33,733 --> 01:50:36,693 Speaker 27: They start with something and it's beautiful and it's nice. 2050 01:50:36,773 --> 01:50:40,893 Speaker 27: But I think that evolution and the hard work is going. Actually, 2051 01:50:41,533 --> 01:50:45,293 Speaker 27: we can push that further. We can add more layers here, 2052 01:50:45,373 --> 01:50:48,853 Speaker 27: We can use our vocals differently, we can write our 2053 01:50:48,973 --> 01:50:53,133 Speaker 27: stories from our perspective, and that's what people follow artists for, 2054 01:50:53,373 --> 01:50:56,333 Speaker 27: right to hear their version of something. Doesn't necessarily have 2055 01:50:56,373 --> 01:50:58,733 Speaker 27: to be your version of something, but we can all 2056 01:50:58,853 --> 01:51:01,653 Speaker 27: learn from there and grow. And I think as artists 2057 01:51:01,653 --> 01:51:04,253 Speaker 27: that's really nice to hear them have that confidence to 2058 01:51:04,293 --> 01:51:04,773 Speaker 27: do that too. 2059 01:51:05,573 --> 01:51:08,773 Speaker 2: Why does the whole reggae things sort of resonate so 2060 01:51:08,853 --> 01:51:09,933 Speaker 2: much in New Zealand? 2061 01:51:10,133 --> 01:51:13,093 Speaker 27: It's really interesting because we have a real do you know. 2062 01:51:13,133 --> 01:51:14,733 Speaker 27: I think we just all actually really love saying a 2063 01:51:14,773 --> 01:51:18,773 Speaker 27: brass and horn section. It's pretty sexy when someone's up 2064 01:51:18,773 --> 01:51:19,693 Speaker 27: there with the trump today. 2065 01:51:20,573 --> 01:51:21,413 Speaker 17: Maybe there's a bit of that. 2066 01:51:21,733 --> 01:51:25,213 Speaker 27: I think it has a positive, fun sound I think 2067 01:51:25,253 --> 01:51:29,173 Speaker 27: culturally it's something that we can really embrace. We all 2068 01:51:29,213 --> 01:51:31,013 Speaker 27: obviously like to shake our booty a little bit. 2069 01:51:31,133 --> 01:51:34,173 Speaker 2: Yeah, this just suits the vibe. 2070 01:51:34,053 --> 01:51:34,733 Speaker 17: It does, I think. 2071 01:51:34,733 --> 01:51:36,453 Speaker 27: And it also you know a lot of our musicians 2072 01:51:36,453 --> 01:51:40,053 Speaker 27: do have a background in jazz and soul, and I 2073 01:51:40,093 --> 01:51:42,653 Speaker 27: think that's part of an evolution of that music working 2074 01:51:42,693 --> 01:51:48,093 Speaker 27: together good musicianship, right, absolutely, because those are the foundations 2075 01:51:48,133 --> 01:51:50,413 Speaker 27: to being able to play any chord, being able to 2076 01:51:50,453 --> 01:51:54,133 Speaker 27: push your vocals, play with your voice, play with your instruments. 2077 01:51:54,533 --> 01:51:57,413 Speaker 27: Those foundations, you know, then open you up to stuff 2078 01:51:57,453 --> 01:51:58,933 Speaker 27: and there's kind of you know, on this album, there 2079 01:51:59,013 --> 01:52:01,973 Speaker 27: is that reggae thing. They've gone a bit pop. Sometimes 2080 01:52:02,013 --> 01:52:04,893 Speaker 27: there's a bit of rock, and I think again, if 2081 01:52:04,933 --> 01:52:07,053 Speaker 27: you've got those foundations, they kind of work together. And 2082 01:52:07,093 --> 01:52:10,413 Speaker 27: also there's just something beautiful about positive, happy sounding music. 2083 01:52:11,733 --> 01:52:13,613 Speaker 2: Wrap it up for me, what we're going to rate 2084 01:52:13,693 --> 01:52:14,173 Speaker 2: the number? 2085 01:52:14,653 --> 01:52:16,973 Speaker 27: Oh this is so hard for me, Francesca, this is 2086 01:52:16,973 --> 01:52:19,293 Speaker 27: the hardest burd of anyone who as opposed to us 2087 01:52:19,493 --> 01:52:23,533 Speaker 27: talking everybody up supporting Lab across their summer tour nine shows. 2088 01:52:23,573 --> 01:52:26,133 Speaker 27: I think you're gonna love this album.
