Telly Cathrin Field is our EU connection 8 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,120 Speaker 2: in Rod Little might well be with us from under 9 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 2: the beat as Flores Rolsword Hosky Welcome to the day, 10 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 2: seven past six. Several bits out of the NCEEA changes 11 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,040 Speaker 2: Erica Stamford with us after seven to thirty. Firstly, the 12 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 2: New Zealand Certificate of Education actually sounds like something, doesn't it. 13 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 2: I mean the same way an A tells you something. 14 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 2: The New Zealand Certificate or Advanced Certificate of Education is 15 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 2: a thing you can get your head around, as in 16 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,279 Speaker 2: do you have one or do you not? I mean 17 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 2: NCEEA is an acronym under the changes. You need to 18 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 2: pass things, how wonderfully old fashioned. If you don't pass, 19 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 2: you don't advance. Therefore, when you do pass, it actually counts. 20 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 2: It means something having watched NCEEA in action with our 21 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 2: five kids. It has been shocking. Virtually anyone could get it, 22 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 2: and that was and is never a good thing. Under 23 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 2: the new regime, you take five subjects you need to 24 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 2: pass for. Nothing too complicated about that. I would have 25 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 2: thought the compulsion around maths and language. I'm actually a 26 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 2: bit sad about. Choice is good. Freedom is good if 27 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,400 Speaker 2: you know what you're doing, if you're aiming somewhere specific, 28 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 2: A tailored approach is vastly more appealing. But in a 29 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,680 Speaker 2: mass system you are vulnerable to the chances and the 30 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 2: weakest links, and they were always going to take the 31 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,320 Speaker 2: joke's subjects, the easy gets, and as such wreck any 32 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 2: reputation you might have hoped for, run your qualification. The 33 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:40,199 Speaker 2: vocational aspect is years overdue gateway inversions like it's sort 34 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 2: of touched on the trades and specific careers or jobs. 35 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 2: But this fascination of not obsession, we seem to have 36 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 2: had with the university has been ruinous for too many. 37 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 2: Being a trade is actually to be admired, It's not 38 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 2: a second prize. The snobbishness around a university degree has 39 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 2: got so absurd. You've ended up with any number of 40 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 2: bewildered teenagers chasing arts, degrees and b comms for no 41 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 2: discernible and other than that's what they thought they should do. 42 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 2: I'm dreadfully sad though, for the thousands of kids who 43 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:10,079 Speaker 2: have been messed around within CEA. What's its value? I mean, 44 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 2: what weight does a generation of kids place on a 45 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 2: thing that's been binned? For some they got locked down 46 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 2: in COVID as well, given a crap qualification. Thanks for coming, 47 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 2: but onwards and upwards. It's a little bit back to 48 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,800 Speaker 2: the future. But along with the mad open classrooms, isn't 49 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 2: it fascinating how forward the old days appear to be. 50 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: Wow, News of the world in ninety seconds start. 51 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 2: In the Middle East, there are claims aid is flowing. 52 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 2: These guys are not convinced. 53 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 3: I wish they were just deliver aid through the crossing. 54 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 4: This is not a humane practice. 55 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean just thirty percent of people are able 56 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 5: to receive aid and the rest do not receive anything. 57 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 2: What follows is in fighting and stabbing. This guy is though, 58 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 2: we want the people fed and we're the only country 59 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 2: that's really doing that. 60 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 6: We're putting up money to get the people fed. 61 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 7: And Steve would go is doing a great job, and 62 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 7: we want. 63 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 3: Israel to get up better. 64 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 8: We're giving some pretty big contributions. 65 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 2: And this guy, he's still working hard to convince the 66 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 2: world he's on the right side of it. 67 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 9: We must continue to stand together and fight together to 68 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 9: achieve the war goals we have set all of them, 69 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 9: the defeat of the enemy, the release of our hostages, 70 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 9: and the assurance that Gaza will no longer pose a 71 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 9: threat to Israel. 72 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 2: Now they're just sect the R I G by the way. 73 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:27,679 Speaker 2: I'll work you through that in the moment. Then and 74 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 2: brook a couple of things. Firstly, the promise to stop 75 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 2: the boats is guess what. 76 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: This is. 77 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 10: An issue that is very complex and there's no one 78 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 10: silver bullet that's going to fix it. So anyone who 79 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 10: thinks that it's going to be fixed immediately with the 80 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 10: pressing of one button doesn't understand. 81 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 2: No. And then we have the whither our latest name 82 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 2: storm is called Floris and that means the trains in 83 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 2: Scotland are heaven travel. 84 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 8: Trees on the lane or trees on the overhead wires, 85 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 8: which is called for significant disruption across the country. We've 86 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 8: also from the start of service we had speed restrictions 87 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 8: of fifty miles per hour, which meant we had significantly 88 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 8: fewer services than we normally went and. 89 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 2: The time it couldn't be worse because the fringes in 90 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 2: full swing or was left. 91 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 4: And pay percent of the total number performances that have 92 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 4: had to be canceled. Obviously, we need to put the 93 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 4: safety of audiences first. We need to make sure that 94 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 4: people can travel to and take part in the fringe 95 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 4: as best they can and as safely as they can. 96 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 2: Finally, from the food file, new research once again in 97 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 2: the UK, it's back the benefits of cooked home cooked 98 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 2: versus ultra process food. Probably not a surprise, there is 99 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 2: the world's though largest and longest randomized controlled clinical trial 100 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,840 Speaker 2: of ultra process food. It found that you lose twice 101 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 2: as much weight if you stay away from the store 102 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 2: board stuff. The weight loss from the minimally processed home 103 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 2: cooked was two percent over eight weeks, which would equate 104 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 2: to thirteen percent for me nine percent for women throughout 105 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 2: a year. That, by the way, doesn't include exercise or 106 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 2: dropping food intake. Less than one percent of people in 107 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 2: the UK followed the government's nutritional recommendations, and that's because 108 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 2: they love chip butties and that is news the world. 109 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 2: In ninety Yeah, the AG in Israel, General Gai Miara 110 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 2: voted the government unanimously to sack her as ag abusing 111 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 2: her authority to undermind the government's policies and destabilize Israel's 112 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 2: rule of law. The right wing had been after her 113 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 2: for a while, so you never can tell whether this 114 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 2: is her being incompetent or them just being political, but 115 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 2: it is what it is. Twelve past six. 116 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio. 117 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 2: How of my news talks, evy, See, here's your problem. 118 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 2: You heard from Trump the other day in Scotland. Right, 119 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 2: So Ursula goes to Scotland. They got a deal. Well, 120 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 2: no they don't, because the EU have announced this morning 121 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 2: they're suspending their planned countermeasures because they want more negotiations. 122 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 2: So Catherine Field shortly fifteen past Buddy's dole of taking money, 123 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 2: jo Am I Wealth, Andrew Caller, Hurt Good Tuesday morning there, 124 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 2: Good morning mine. And if there's someone we can count 125 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,359 Speaker 2: on apart from the farmers in this economy, it is 126 00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 2: Rod and his shops. 127 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 11: He got old briscos Hey. We've got reporting season coming 128 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 11: up in the next few weeks. That'll give us another 129 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 11: lens on how well the economy is going. I'm looking 130 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,039 Speaker 11: forward to that. Yeah, But we had a couple of 131 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 11: announcements yesterday from local companies which I think are worth highlighting. Briscoes, Yes, 132 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 11: I would call it one of the barometers of the 133 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 11: local retail sector. I think it's also widely recognized as 134 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 11: one of the most resilient and successful retailers in the country. Look, 135 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 11: I think we can characterize this announcement as good news. 136 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 11: I think we can because they have seen some momentum 137 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 11: return to sales, so their home where sales they've seen 138 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 11: a left they've seen a rebound there with growth for 139 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 11: that their second quarter. 140 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 3: Of trading a smidgeon under four percent. 141 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 11: That's after their first quarter was impacted by a pretty 142 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 11: slow start to winter. But unfortunately, offsetting that, they're sporting goods, 143 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 11: so I think rebel sport they've had a sales decline 144 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 11: there of one point three to four percent for the quarter. Now, 145 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 11: sporting goods are being seen as more sensitive to that 146 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 11: to the strength of discretionary spense. So that in turn 147 00:06:56,360 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 11: reflects your tough economic environment and your subdued consumer seat. 148 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 11: But you wrap them together, sales and total just over 149 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 11: two percent, which is pretty good. I think that's not 150 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 11: a bad outcome. Margin's still under pressure though. Brisco shareholders 151 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 11: they've been well rewarded this year. I mean the share 152 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 11: price started the year around five bucks. It's now over 153 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 11: six bucks. That's not a bad going. But they've had 154 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 11: the tailwind of being included in a number of the 155 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 11: local indices. So it's now trading at what I would 156 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 11: call a very or a pretty healthy multiple, which can 157 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,679 Speaker 11: be dangerous, but the company keeps delivering. 158 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 2: So there you go, yeah, exactly. Then we've got thhl 159 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 2: What do you make of that? 160 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 11: Look what not unexpected? So they've also seen shareholders. They're 161 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 11: also seen a big share price spike back in June. 162 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 11: That was thanks to an unsolicited takeover bit Now the 163 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 11: company has responded to this has taken them awhile they've 164 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 11: responded this yesterday announced to the market that the board 165 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 11: has rejected the offer and probably no surprises there. It's 166 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 11: said it's undervalued and opportunistic. Now the bid is at 167 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 11: two dollars thirty. The board thinks that's too light. They 168 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 11: value the company north of three dollars a share now, 169 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 11: as I say the bid was unsolicited, so they weren't 170 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 11: out there looking for it. It's come from private equity 171 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 11: and actually from management as well. They've said they remain 172 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 11: open to communication from the consortium. But I think you've 173 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 11: got to keep watching the space. I suspect, look, it 174 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 11: was opportunistic, so maybe there's not too much more upside, 175 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 11: but I suspect there's now going to be a bit 176 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 11: of backward and forward. 177 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 3: Share price is just over. 178 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 11: Two dollars, which is below the two dollars thirty bid level, 179 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 11: and notably well below the three dollars that's referenced in 180 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,239 Speaker 11: the announcement yesterday. 181 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, and now we're back looking at the ten yields, 182 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 2: are we Yeah. 183 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 3: I just want to note this. 184 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 11: We've said very weak labor market numbers out on the 185 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 11: US on Friday night, the non farm payrolls numbers, So. 186 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 3: Share markets got slapped by the way. 187 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,679 Speaker 11: They have recovered overnight, not not completely, but they have recovered. 188 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 3: But it's actually moved a lot of other assets around 189 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 3: as well. 190 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 11: And I want to mention interest rates because it's pushed 191 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 11: wholesale interest rates in the US quite a bit lower. 192 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 3: And I always need to remind people that. 193 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 11: There's a good degree of correlation between the US longer 194 00:08:58,600 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 11: term interest rates and our own. 195 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 3: They move, we move. So the US tenure sitting about 196 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 3: four point two. 197 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 11: It has been all over the place this year. Back 198 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 11: in April it was down at four percent, by May 199 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 11: it was up at. 200 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 3: Four point six. 201 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 11: But as I say, moves our rates around as well. 202 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 11: So nuged our longer rates lower lower here yesterday as well, 203 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,319 Speaker 11: which is a good thing. The logic here mic is 204 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 11: that the US economy is potentially slowing, and so you'll 205 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 11: see further falls in the Fed funds rate, but possibly 206 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 11: lower growth levels as well. 207 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:28,679 Speaker 3: That's one of those things that we just have to 208 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 3: see how it plays out. 209 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 2: But then to talk to me and see they argue 210 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 2: that when it comes to the oil, right, so if 211 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 2: you put more oil into the market, are you then 212 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 2: banking on the fact that the more will offset the 213 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 2: drop in price. 214 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, So there's a few things going on. 215 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 11: So the other one, that's the other thing that moved 216 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 11: on Friday was the oil price. So and we do 217 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 11: need to give this a mention because it's sixty eight dollars. 218 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 11: I was down below sixty nine bucks. So towards the 219 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 11: end of last week, Mike, it crude spiked over seventy 220 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 11: three bucks, which is not good for inflation, particularly when 221 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 11: you've got a weak New Zealand dollar, because not only 222 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 11: is it costs more, but you need more New Zealand 223 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 11: pesos to. 224 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 3: Buy the stuff. 225 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 11: So but then on Friday, that non pomp paraite can 226 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 11: what it basically says is suggests the risk of the 227 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 11: weiki US economy has increased, so you get weak economy, 228 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 11: less demand for oil price goes down. But then over 229 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 11: the weekend as well, the OPEC Plus consortium agreed to 230 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 11: another production hike. Now I'm not I'm not quite sure 231 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 11: what the what the logic is and what's going on 232 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,559 Speaker 11: in the background with OPEC Plus and the oil price, 233 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 11: because I suspect there's a lot of political stuff going 234 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 11: on as well. But this has been a theme for 235 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 11: a little while. It is the sixth consecutive month that 236 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 11: the cartel has agreed to increase production five hundred and 237 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 11: forty seven thousand barrels a day. 238 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 3: But hey, at the end of the day, we've got 239 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 3: a cheap oil price. 240 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 2: That's they can pump pumping in as long as they like. Now, 241 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 2: what are the numbers there, so here we go. 242 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 3: The Dow Jones is up one point one percent. Started 243 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 3: the week up four hundred and about four hundred and 244 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 3: eighty points. 245 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 11: It's over forty four thousand again forty four thousand and 246 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 11: sixty six. The S and P five hundred one point 247 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 11: three percent sixty three to two to zero. The Nasdaq 248 00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 11: pushing even higher than that one point eight percent, hasn't 249 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 11: recovered all the ground it lost, but it's up three 250 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 11: hundred and seventy five points, twenty one than twenty five. 251 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,559 Speaker 11: The forty one hundred gained two thirds of percent nine 252 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 11: one two eights. 253 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 3: That closed there. 254 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 11: The Nikko wasn't playing that game. It fell one hudred 255 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 11: quarter percent forty thousand, two hundred and ninety. The Shanghai 256 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 11: pomps it up twenty three points. That's about two thirds 257 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 11: of percent three five eight three. The OSSI's small game 258 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 11: yesterday eight sixty six three, but we lost forty five 259 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 11: points on the nz at X fifty, closing at twelve thousand, 260 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 11: six hundred and. 261 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 3: Eighty four point five nine oh two. 262 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 11: That's the Keywi dollar against the US point nine one 263 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,839 Speaker 11: three three, Ossie point five one zero one Euro point 264 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 11: four four four four all the fours against the pound 265 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 11: eighty six point seven six Japanese en gold is trading 266 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 11: at three thousand, three hundred and seventy three dollars and 267 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 11: as I said, breakthroughed sixty eight dollars and eighty three cent. 268 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 2: Good Man, go well, see you tomorrow.

Biggest fine since ninety nine. No 276 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 2: reserve estimate. Although we cannot extrapolate as it's too early, 277 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 2: we believe the data provides support that the potential scale 278 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 2: of this one hundred percent VP discovery could be a 279 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 2: quote unquote game changer. Six twenty two reviews Talk. 280 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: ZB The Mike Hosking Breakfast, a full show podcast on iHeartRadio, 281 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: Power by the News Talks at b tell. 282 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 2: You what I'm still recovering from the bombing the other day. 283 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 2: Tehran seems to be in trouble with water. They've got 284 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 2: a day zero situation, which I always find fascinating. Day 285 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 2: zero is the day when you run out of water, 286 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 2: when you turn on a tap in a place, in 287 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 2: this case to Tehran and there will be no water. 288 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,080 Speaker 2: So they've had a water criss on going. I mean, 289 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 2: obviously it's fairly arid part of the world. Reservoirs are 290 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 2: shrinking at the moment, inherently short supply basically forever. But 291 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 2: the differences time run hitting the capitol, and there's quite 292 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 2: a few people in the capitol. There's ten million people 293 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,199 Speaker 2: in the capitol. So it's decades of poor water management, 294 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 2: it's increasing imbalance between supply and demand, all that usual stuff. 295 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,319 Speaker 2: But Day zero is coming, they say within weeks six 296 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 2: twenty five. 297 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 1: Trending now with Chemist Wells keeping Kiwi's healthy. 298 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,760 Speaker 2: All year, Rountur dierictor James L.

They've 344 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 2: now delayed that for some six months because they want 345 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 2: to get back to the negotiating table. So did we 346 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 2: have a deal? Did we ever have a deal or not? 347 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 2: And that's good. You remember when I was talking to 348 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 2: Catherine last week, So she turns Vandalayan up at Turnbury. 349 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 2: Trump's sitting there going, well, it's fifty to fifty as 350 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 2: we sit here, I don't know whether we can cut 351 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 2: a deal or not. They go away to a room 352 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 2: and literally ten minutes later they got a deal. I mean, 353 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 2: it was the weirdest thing. It turned out to be 354 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 2: on the pile of bs. Anyway, from shortly twenty three 355 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 2: to seven, right, got some fascinating data around ulphin hous 356 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 2: in July hotter than a hot thing, apparently, sales up 357 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 2: nine percent from June nine percent. New listing's up fourteen 358 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 2: percent month on month. Now four Buffet and Thompson they 359 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 2: sold nine hundred and fifty seven properties. Is that a lot? Yes, 360 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 2: it's the most in four years. Peter Thompson's managing director, 361 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 2: of course, and as well us Peter morning, yeah, good morning, Mike. 362 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 2: Is this an outlier or is August going to track 363 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 2: some so we're heading towards springing a new tomorrow and 364 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 2: the whole world's changing. 365 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 16: Yeah, I think if we take the last three to 366 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 16: six months, we've actually been tracking up very slightly month 367 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 16: after month, and I think there's just a little bit 368 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 16: more confidence coming in the real estate market. Traditionally June 369 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 16: and July are our slowest month's been winter, but yeah, 370 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 16: we're actually starting to see a lot more activity, which 371 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 16: is very pleasing. 372 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 2: Can we cut through it all and have some reasons? 373 00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 2: I mean, why would you list in the middle of 374 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 2: winter unless you have to people leaving the country? Are 375 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 2: they feeling bullish and trading up? What's going on? 376 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 16: No, we're actually starting to see quite a lot of 377 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 16: first home buyers getting into the market. You know, the 378 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:14,440 Speaker 16: average median and average sale price for Auckland have come 379 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 16: down just slightly over the last few months. You know, 380 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,679 Speaker 16: were originally at the beginning of the essay over a 381 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 16: million dollars were now down around about nine hundred and 382 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 16: ninety thousand. So we're starting to see a few more 383 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 16: of the first home buyers, a little bit more activity 384 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 16: with some of the developers. With the fast tracking that's 385 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:37,159 Speaker 16: come in there's a little bit more movement starting to happen, 386 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 16: and everything's just sort of just starting, and I think 387 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 16: that's the pleasing thing. But it's all led by the 388 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 16: interest rates of course. 389 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,160 Speaker 2: Okay, So if we're doing and feeling that right here 390 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,159 Speaker 2: now in the depth of winter, could we feel bullish 391 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 2: about September, October and November. 392 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,719 Speaker 16: I personally think we well, I wouldn't say bullish, but 393 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,199 Speaker 16: certainly we're going to see a lot more activity, and 394 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 16: traditionally September October, as you say, are our better months. 395 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,200 Speaker 16: When the weather comes out, we certainly start seeing the 396 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 16: higher price properties come in. That will effect obviously the 397 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 16: average sale price, but you know, if you average it 398 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,920 Speaker 16: out over the year, we're really basically the price is 399 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 16: aesthetic and the volume of properties are increasing. 400 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 2: And what do you what weight do you place on 401 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 2: the so called interest rate flow through? So allegedly you've 402 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 2: got a couple more cuts coming from the r but 403 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,640 Speaker 2: it's not automatic into the retail end. But nevertheless, it's 404 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,199 Speaker 2: you know, it's putting pressure on the data. Does that 405 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:29,400 Speaker 2: fire everything up? 406 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 16: It certainly does. But I think it's not just for property. 407 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 16: I think you getting money in their hands is certainly 408 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 16: helping with you know, the average person on the street 409 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 16: with every day spending. And you know, we've just got 410 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,439 Speaker 16: to look at what's happened in the rural market. The 411 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,879 Speaker 16: farmers are happy and now we're starting to see you know, 412 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,639 Speaker 16: most probably the rural land sales over the last three 413 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,400 Speaker 16: or four years have been almost non existent, but now 414 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:57,919 Speaker 16: we're doing to see activity and that's all good signs. 415 00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:58,159 Speaker 13: I know. 416 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,880 Speaker 2: It's a big talking point in the industry. If Lux 417 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,439 Speaker 2: and Tomorrow announced that foreign buyers can come back and 418 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 2: start buying four five million dollar houses, how materially does 419 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 2: that affect the market? Do you think. 420 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 16: It won't affect It's huge, and I've heard these discussions 421 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 16: going on and reality that there's the protection for the 422 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:24,120 Speaker 16: first home buy The five million really will only most 423 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 16: probably affect say maybe Auckland and say the Southern Lakes districts. 424 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 16: We need to be able to spread it through the 425 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 16: country and they may have to lower that that five million, 426 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 16: but maybe they have to add on extra for investment 427 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 16: that they're talking about. So a total of ten million dollars, 428 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 16: it could be five million in Auckland with five million investment, 429 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 16: it could be three millions a in Wellington with seven 430 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 16: million investment. I think they just need to be aware 431 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 16: that we've got to be able to spread some of 432 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,680 Speaker 16: those foreign buyers. There's a lot of people wanting to come. 433 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 16: I've just come back from Singa Paul, for instance, it 434 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 16: was amazing over there we have a they have free 435 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 16: trade and combined there they don't apply to our policy. 436 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 16: Very few Singaporeans realized that, and I think that's a 437 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:14,360 Speaker 16: message we've actually got to get out to them. 438 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 2: Well said Appreciate Times of Wat's Peter Thompson, who's the 439 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 2: managing director of course of Barfoot and Thompson are eighteen 440 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 2: minutes away from seven time pas skiing contrast. Have a 441 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 2: look at the Herald this morning. Big Projects abandoned the 442 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 2: third delayed unbuilt dire State of Auckland CBD. So this 443 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:33,640 Speaker 2: is and Gibson's property Insider. There's a growing concern apparently 444 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 2: if you've been downtown Auckland, I mean you can see 445 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 2: it about a lack of activity, deferral's delays, abandonment. SIT's 446 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 2: unsold for a year, sometimes decades. Every day we're getting 447 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 2: closer to suber than Sydney. It's a guy called James Keller, 448 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:49,440 Speaker 2: Who's worth New Zealand mortgages and securities, No parking, crime, homelessness, 449 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,919 Speaker 2: almost impossible to get a consent to do anything. So 450 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 2: I'll read that in WEEP eighteen too. 451 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: The Mic Hosking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio. 452 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 2: It by News Talks, It be Mortie. Mike, how refreshing 453 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 2: to hear someone being positive? I agree, but he had 454 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 2: the numbers to back it up. It's all very well, 455 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 2: just to be positive, positive, You don't want to be 456 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 2: polyannerish about it, but you have the numbers to back 457 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 2: it up. Mike's pretty obvious. People have realized interest rates 458 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 2: aren't going any lower, even though we all know they should. 459 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 2: I think they're going to. They're going to have to. 460 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 2: I think there's two cuts coming before the end of 461 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 2: the year. And as I've said a million times, I 462 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 2: reckon neutrals probably about two and a half of the 463 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 2: R six forty. 464 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:29,439 Speaker 1: Five international correspondence with ends and eye insurance. Peace of 465 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: mind for New Zealand business. 466 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,199 Speaker 2: What Catherine Field to cut through the mess from the 467 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 2: shambles and tell us what on earth's going on with 468 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 2: this trade? Business? Morning to you, Catherine, given So there 469 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 2: you're at Turnbrie, and Ursula's there and Donald's there, and 470 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:43,400 Speaker 2: they've got a deal, and now we don't what an 471 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 2: earth is going on. 472 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 14: I think everyone has suddenly focused on the seventh of August, 473 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 14: this Thursday, when the tariffs are due to come into 474 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 14: a fact. Of course, the one country that's completely shocked 475 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 14: at the moment, Mike is Switzerland. Of course, they've really 476 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 14: been had hard. Thirty nine percent US export tariff has 477 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 14: come down on them. There's one of the steepest globally. 478 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,880 Speaker 14: And of course the Swiss had been negotiating for over 479 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 14: the last three months. 480 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 17: They thought they'd. 481 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 13: Done a deal. 482 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 14: They thought they were ready for maybe ten percent, possibly 483 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 14: fifteen percent, but then this came down. Not quite sure why. 484 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 14: Some are saying it's because they're particularly bad tempered. Telephone 485 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 14: call between US President and the Swiss president last Thursday, 486 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:32,400 Speaker 14: Perhaps that happened. 487 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 2: No one's quite sure. 488 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 14: There was an emergency cabinet meeting a couple of hours ago. 489 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 14: The statement came out from that saying that Switzerland is 490 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 14: about to make a more attractive offer to the US, 491 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 14: taking US concerns into account. No clues what that offer 492 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:54,639 Speaker 14: would be. Mike possibly offered to buy more LNG liquidified 493 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 14: natural gas, but just really absolute panic in Switzerland of course, 494 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 14: again and another export oriented economy. Sixteen percent of their 495 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 14: goods go to the US. We're talking about big luxury items, 496 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 14: you know, watchers, chocolate, pharmaceutical machinery. It could have a 497 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 14: really harsh knock on effect to the Swiss economy. 498 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,120 Speaker 2: Yes, it could. So we wish them all the very 499 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 2: best with that. As far as you guys are considered, 500 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:23,360 Speaker 2: have you got I mean, the Germans have been consistent, 501 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 2: haven't they. They didn't really like what happened to Turnbury 502 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 2: the other day? And so it is Europe aligned with 503 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,199 Speaker 2: what you want to do with America or not? 504 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:35,159 Speaker 14: Really not really, It really does depend who you speak to. 505 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 14: I mean, yes, France and Germany are essentially saying what 506 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 14: went wrong? You know, We've got the German finance minister 507 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 14: heading to the US at the moment. He's going to 508 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 14: have talks there with the Treasury Sectory, but he's pretty 509 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 14: much going on alone there, Mike. He's going there to 510 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 14: talk about special exemptions for the German steel sector. He's 511 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,640 Speaker 14: clearly not going there to talk for Europe because they 512 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 14: just feel that they've got to worry about their electorate 513 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:03,399 Speaker 14: now and jobs in their market interest enough, Still no 514 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 14: word from French prison tom Manuel Macaron. He's keeping very quiet. 515 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 14: But of course it's summer here, so you wouldn't expect 516 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,640 Speaker 14: them to say much. But then again, my youth, we're 517 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 14: heading towards this Thursday and it could be a bit 518 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 14: of an upset again if someone doesn't manage to pull 519 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 14: something off. Certainly no one's expecting a sort of underline 520 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 14: to come back and say, well, I got it all wrong. 521 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 14: We've managed to renegotiate something that's just not going to happen. 522 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 2: Hey, how's Pauline on her bicycle? 523 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 14: Eh? Oh, didn't we just need the SATIRRASA Pauline for 524 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:38,360 Speaker 14: Hans Prevos. 525 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 2: She's won the women's. 526 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 14: Tour of Hans Yes, okay, it's not as big as 527 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 14: the man. That's only nine days, nine stages the men 528 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 14: do twenty one stages. But absolutely wonderful. She came home. 529 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 14: She was wearing the yellow jersey on the final stage. 530 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 14: She did it for France. Of course, it comes on 531 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,919 Speaker 14: top of her first her Olympic goal last year in 532 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 14: Paris she went it on the VTT, So yeah, everyone 533 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,880 Speaker 14: absolutely excited by that, except for the money side of it. 534 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 14: She gets about ninety eight thousand New Zealand dollars, whereas 535 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,920 Speaker 14: the one who won the men's competition got just over 536 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 14: one point one million New Zealand ors. 537 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:20,880 Speaker 2: How's your whether I'm reading another one of those alarmist 538 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,479 Speaker 2: articles here on the local media saying our whole summer 539 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 2: holiday thing in Europe now is on the edge because 540 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 2: we can't stand the heat. Is it one hundred and 541 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 2: twelve degrees as you speak? 542 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:31,360 Speaker 13: No, not yet. 543 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 14: In fact, we've had a pretty cool July. But they're 544 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 14: saying there's going to be another heat wave coming up 545 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:37,879 Speaker 14: by the end of this week. Certainly up at you. 546 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 14: You do notice the trends and tourism. People are not 547 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 14: going to the south as much as used to. People 548 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:46,919 Speaker 14: rethinking where they're going to go to Spain. If you 549 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,879 Speaker 14: can bear the cold water and the channel, go to 550 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,159 Speaker 14: the Normandy coast is what people are saying that. I 551 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 14: think I'm just stay home. 552 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 2: But what about Finland. You went to Finland? Where do 553 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:56,160 Speaker 2: you go to Finland? 554 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 13: Then? Was glorious? 555 00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:58,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly all right. 556 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 14: You can go swimming and beautiful crystal plair, blue waters, 557 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 14: go to the legs Warves wonderful. 558 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 2: What more do you want? Catherine Field always pleasure. She's 559 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 2: back with us next Tuesday here on the Mike Hosking 560 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 2: Breakfast ten to seven. 561 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 1: The Mike Hosking Breakfast with Bailey's Real Estate News Talks. 562 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 2: They'd be very good piece of reading for you that 563 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 2: I'll get back to you later on about And this 564 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 2: is US following Australia. So their social media ban that 565 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 2: they seem absolutely obsessed with and somehow believe that it's 566 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 2: going to work, or do they? There is good reason 567 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,479 Speaker 2: why the social media ban in Australia won't work, and 568 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 2: the government knows it. So in other words, it's just 569 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 2: it's smoking mirrors, basically the thing yesterday. I think I 570 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 2: alluded to it briefly yesterday. I can't remember, but I 571 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:46,400 Speaker 2: certainly alluded it to it at the time. So Jennison, Genesis, 572 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 2: Meridian and Mercury in Contact have got together and this 573 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,399 Speaker 2: is the ultimate ironies of ironies, and I noted this. 574 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 2: I thought about this over the weekend when I heard 575 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 2: the announcement from Megan Woods that she wasn't going to 576 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 2: be standing for her electric in christ ut Or. She 577 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 2: was just happy to be a list MP, and I 578 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 2: thought that that says something about a person to be blunt. 579 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 2: You know, if you are seen to be the prime 580 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,399 Speaker 2: minister or the finance minister. I get that. I would 581 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 2: I think anyone would struggle to be an electric MP 582 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 2: plus a very very senior politician. But when you're in 583 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 2: opposition doing not a lot and you decide the electorate's 584 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 2: all a bit difficult and you just might sit there 585 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 2: on the list for a while. That's got work from 586 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,399 Speaker 2: Home vibes about it to me. Anyway, Why did I 587 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,200 Speaker 2: mention her well, because she was, of course the person 588 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 2: who cut the power and the oil off in the 589 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 2: first place. So to the announcement yesterday to the market Genesis, Meridian, 590 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 2: Mercury and Contact, they've announced that they club together and 591 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,439 Speaker 2: they're just going to buy shed loads of coal for 592 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,199 Speaker 2: lord knows how many years to get us through this 593 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 2: miraculous transition that's just any day now going to save 594 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 2: the world and us in winter five minutes away from seven, 595 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,120 Speaker 2: the ins and the outs. 596 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:58,360 Speaker 1: It's the beiz with business favor, take your business productivity 597 00:27:58,440 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: to the next level. 598 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,880 Speaker 2: From Tesla this morning, it's not quite as big as 599 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 2: he was hoping for because he's still in court. I refer, 600 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,919 Speaker 2: of course to Elon. But he's come up big on 601 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 2: the payday with the board awarding him an interim package 602 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,360 Speaker 2: of ninety six million shares. Is that a lot? Quite 603 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,639 Speaker 2: a lot, because worth about forty nine billion New Zealand 604 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 2: dollars stipulation, who's going to hang around? So these are 605 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 2: golden handcuffs. Basically, he's got to continue for the next 606 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 2: couple of years as the CEO or in some key 607 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 2: executive position. It's also interim given he is still in 608 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 2: court scrapping away. That court case, by the way, started 609 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,479 Speaker 2: seven years ago, and back then what had happened if 610 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,600 Speaker 2: you haven't followed the story, is the shareholders approved this 611 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 2: paypacket that was worth ninety five billion, but it was 612 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 2: blocked with the courts because it was alleged Musk had 613 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 2: sham negotiations with directors who were not independent. If he 614 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 2: eventually wins that battle, the interim package is null and void, 615 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 2: so he doesn't get today's lot, plus you know the rest. 616 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 2: He only gets the original Anyways, Currently, the largest shareholder 617 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 2: holds about thirteen percent with the paypacket, and an announcement 618 00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 2: to day would take him to about fifteen percent, but 619 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 2: he wants even more. He's a bit worried about being 620 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 2: asked to buy active as shareholders. That's his maintenance ern zone, 621 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 2: I mean upshots. He can afford the power bell. He's 622 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 2: not worried about Genesis stockpiling Coali's. You know, he's okay, 623 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 2: can probably full his own woinodmill and battery if he 624 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 2: wants it. What are we talking about after seven o'clock 625 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 2: this morning. But we're going to go into the trades. 626 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 2: And I mean, if you've listened to this program on 627 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 2: a regular basis over a long period of time, you 628 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 2: will know my view on the trades and just how 629 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 2: hopeless it has been in the education system as we've 630 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 2: obsessed about going to university at all costs. And being 631 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 2: a trade is actually a good thing, and you can 632 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 2: be a very good trading and then before you know it, 633 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 2: you can own your own company and call yourself Jonesy. 634 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 2: And the next thing you do, you around at my 635 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 2: place charging me tens of thousands of dollars to dig 636 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 2: holes in the ground and put drains it. And he 637 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 2: looked all right to me. I thought, now, did Jonesy, 638 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 2: did Jonesy get a b com No he didn't. Jonesy 639 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 2: dug some holes at my place and charge me tens 640 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 2: of thousands of dollars for some drainage, and that's being 641 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 2: a trading and so at last we're starting to recognize this. 642 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 2: So we'll do more on this after the news, which 643 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 2: is next your reduced talks. 644 00:29:58,280 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 6: There'd be. 645 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 1: The only report you need to start your day. The 646 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: my casting break best with Bailey's real estate altogether better 647 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 1: across residential, commercial, and rural. News dogs head be. 648 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 2: Seven past seven, So perhaps one of the more exciting 649 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:18,120 Speaker 2: parts of the new STOK school curriculum reform, very direct 650 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 2: link to the trades and vacational training subjects will be 651 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 2: co designed with industry to boost career viability. James mcdowald 652 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 2: is the head of Advocacy at the MTA and is 653 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 2: with us. James, morning, morning, Mike. How are you good? 654 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 2: Are you excited? 655 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 3: I am. 656 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 5: It's a very very welcome change. It was a pleasure 657 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 5: to attend the funeral yesterday of NCA and I very 658 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 5: much look forward to the future and particularly what we're 659 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,200 Speaker 5: going to be doing with vocational pathways. 660 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 2: What's your interface currently with the schooling system. 661 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 5: Well, this gateway program which tries to go in there 662 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 5: and get kids and get them to on job environments, 663 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 5: you know, tertiary thundered and not paid for. That's there's 664 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 5: a little bit of interface, but ultimately the the big 665 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 5: problem with NCAA is it's just an absolute dog's breakfast. 666 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 5: And when you've got more than forty percent of kids 667 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:10,560 Speaker 5: who pick just a few credits here and there in 668 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 5: vocational pathways, that's that's not a pathway into the serious 669 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 5: pathway into the trades. That's then just you know, and 670 00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 5: that's how the system works and incentivisers gaming the system 671 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 5: and picking up little credits here and there. So doing 672 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 5: away with all that what we would very much like 673 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 5: to see now, and it's part of the consultation process 674 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 5: is saying, look, okay, we're going to do this big 675 00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 5: core subjects. Let's have say, in our case, an automotive subject, 676 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 5: and we all work with the polytechs and providers like 677 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 5: MITO that do the on job training and start the 678 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 5: moving exactly the best. 679 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 2: So I want to be an engineer in F one, 680 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 2: is that how it's going to work for me. I'll 681 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 2: do my maths, I'll do my English, and I'll do 682 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 2: something that channels me towards that. 683 00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 5: Yes, it's a lot like the old days, a lot 684 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 5: of the old system, or perhaps more contemporarily like more 685 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 5: like Cambridge. At the moment where you have your core subjects, 686 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,680 Speaker 5: there'll be much less choice, for sure. I think that's 687 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 5: the problem with NCA. There's just far too much flexibility. 688 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 5: You've got something like over eleven thousand unit standards you 689 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 5: can choose from that make up these qualifications. That's just 690 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 5: a complete mess. You know, you might get a few 691 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 5: credits for learning how to put oil in a car. 692 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 5: That does not make you an automotive engineer, unfortunately. 693 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 2: No, it doesn't. Do you think we will be able 694 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 2: to it? Because I've been banging on about this literally 695 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 2: for years. Do you think we will be able to 696 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 2: break the psychological whatever it is that we have with university. 697 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 2: Not that university is bad or any of that if 698 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 2: your on a pathway, but this fixation with getting a 699 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 2: be calm or whatever it is as opposed to the 700 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 2: trades which are second place. 701 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 5: Well, that's been one of the strong messages from the 702 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 5: government and then talking to ministers in the last few days, 703 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 5: and they would really like to see the trades elevated 704 00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 5: and not seen as you know, a fallback option for 705 00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 5: those that don't do very well at school. You know, 706 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 5: let's be honest, these are highly skilled roles, and these 707 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 5: are future business owners and having a much more coherent 708 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 5: pathway into whether it's full on job training through MITO 709 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 5: or whether it's into a polytechnic. Having that they're in 710 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,520 Speaker 5: the school and then they get halfway halfway through the 711 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 5: thing anyway, that will raise its profile. I think. 712 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 2: So that's the this part good stuff. James Wilder, James mcdell, 713 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 2: who's with the MTA this morning, timidus past seven PASKI. 714 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 2: I reckon that was the most positive government announcement that's 715 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 2: been made so far in this government in terms of reaction. 716 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 2: Our newsroom ran a few negative stories, as they normally do, 717 00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 2: but apart from that, overall, yesterday seem to me for 718 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 2: something as large as it is, and believe me, it's large, overall, 719 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 2: most people seem to say thank the Good Lord for that. Anyway. 720 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 2: Erica Stamford's with us in about twenty minutes ten past seven, 721 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 2: so got some community angst over proposals to cut more 722 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 2: rural police were in Canterbury, where consultations underway and restructuring 723 00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 2: to a more centralized model. So they're looking to fire 724 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 2: a twenty four seven hubs, places like Roliston and Rangula, 725 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 2: which of course are booming. Beckscreen is the president of 726 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 2: Fed Farmers North Canterbury and as with us bex morning, 727 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 2: good morning, how are you very well? So we're talking 728 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 2: colvid at least in those sort of areas, right coret okay, 729 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 2: So do you know what's going on? Because I heard 730 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,439 Speaker 2: yesterday someone's going, oh my god, they're going to close 731 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 2: down Arthur's Path. Arthur's Pass hasn't had a copy it 732 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,000 Speaker 2: for two years, so why wouldn't you close it down. 733 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 18: Look, they're looking at changing or reducing a lot of 734 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:29,719 Speaker 18: areas in rural cranks Canterbury. So for the likes of 735 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,840 Speaker 18: Colvidin we have two police officers there, they will be 736 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:35,840 Speaker 18: disestablished and take entering Euroe. 737 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 2: The argument is that just because you close a police 738 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,279 Speaker 2: station doesn't mean you're not going to have someone on 739 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 2: the beat. Do you accept that or is that a 740 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 2: possibility or no? 741 00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:49,360 Speaker 18: I absolutely don't accept it. Our police live in our community. 742 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,399 Speaker 18: They know the people and they understand the community. If 743 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 18: you lose that in a in a rural community. It's 744 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:56,280 Speaker 18: a huge. 745 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:59,560 Speaker 2: Impact, right, So where are you at with the police 746 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:01,280 Speaker 2: and what of the police saying to you as opposed 747 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 2: to what they think they can do and what they 748 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 2: will do. 749 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 18: That's a good question. We were not consulted or the 750 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 18: community was not consulted prior to hearing this in the media, 751 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:15,880 Speaker 18: so we're obviously quite disappointed. Since then, we have I 752 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:19,359 Speaker 18: have spoken to Tony Hill. He is coming to our 753 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:24,240 Speaker 18: community meetings on Wednesday up in Colbenan and obviously we'd 754 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 18: like to ask him a lot of questions. 755 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:27,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, you can't blame you can't blame them in theory. 756 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 2: I mean Rollinson rangure is booming and therefore more people, 757 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 2: more cops. So you can see why they're focusing on 758 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:33,640 Speaker 2: those areas, can't you. 759 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:37,359 Speaker 18: Oh but that doesn't mean that you should take away 760 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 18: the yal police in our royal communities. 761 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,799 Speaker 2: No, So what sort of timeframe we're dealing on this? 762 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:43,239 Speaker 2: When do we need to bring your back back and 763 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:44,279 Speaker 2: work out what's going on here? 764 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 18: Look, the submissions are closed or the two week consultation 765 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 18: with the staff closes next Wednesday, the thirteenth of July. Okay, 766 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 18: in that time, the community can write submissions and we 767 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 18: obviously have our community meetings technique this Wednesday where we 768 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 18: hopefully can get some answers to the questions that we 769 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 18: have around how it impacts our community, and then I 770 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 18: guess from there we'll find. 771 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 2: Out all right, We'll stay in touch. Bex preciate. It 772 00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 2: Becks Green, president of Fed Farmers in North Canterbury, thirteen 773 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:18,799 Speaker 2: minutes past seven Scale predictions for tomorrow's unemployment number five three. 774 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 2: Everyone seems to be thinking five three. It's currently five 775 00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 2: to one. The odd person goes five too. I think 776 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 2: the RB's going five to two. Five three is what 777 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 2: most people seem to think. That would mean that the 778 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 2: economy shit about forty thousand jobs over the last couple 779 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:32,880 Speaker 2: of years. They've got wage growth at about two, which 780 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 2: is interesting because inflation that way it is at the 781 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 2: moment and the band is high twos and trending up, 782 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:41,839 Speaker 2: which means you going backwards. And there is also an 783 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,279 Speaker 2: argument I think it was Miles at A and Z 784 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:45,839 Speaker 2: who was arguing that there might have been a bit 785 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 2: of labour hoarding going on. In other words, a lot 786 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 2: of businesses were holding on to some people thinking things 787 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:53,279 Speaker 2: were coming right coming right, coming right, and if you 788 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 2: suddenly change your mind one Monday morning and go, you 789 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:56,839 Speaker 2: know what, they're not as right as I thought there were. 790 00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:58,840 Speaker 2: We might be still laying a few people off. So 791 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:00,399 Speaker 2: it'll be interesting tomorrow to get that number. 792 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 1: Fourteen past the High Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on 793 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio powered by News Talks. 794 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,279 Speaker 2: That Be Now you may not know the name again, 795 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 2: or a mirror hunt if you don't a light line 796 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:15,759 Speaker 2: before eight o'clock and she's with us after.

Sixteen past seven, So 798 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 2: New Zealand on air as in the taxpayer branching out 799 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,320 Speaker 2: of this funding of reality Telly.

The conversations 810 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:51,319 Speaker 15: are pretty intense, so I don't think there's a lot 811 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:54,000 Speaker 15: of bluffing going on. I think we're all kind of 812 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:58,319 Speaker 15: working together.

It's really 830 00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:58,080 Speaker 15: desperate out there's the adriv is just so low, and 831 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:01,280 Speaker 15: it's because of big tech and it's gone completely unregulated 832 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:05,760 Speaker 15: and it's incredibly tough, and you know, to reassure people, 833 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 15: I mean, this is not entered on air, you know, 834 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 15: doing a race to the bottom. I mean you use 835 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 15: the term reality and yes, technically yes they are. But 836 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 15: you know, the Traders is a pretty sophisticated entertainment format 837 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:17,920 Speaker 15: that's pretty well. 838 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 19: Made, can I be? 839 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 2: Also, without insolving my verage of friend Paul Henry, Traders 840 00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 2: didn't rate on TV three, not much rates on TV three, 841 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:31,799 Speaker 2: where as Celebrity Treasure Island. Celebrity Treasure Island does right, yes, 842 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:34,959 Speaker 2: and pure numbers. Celebrity would be Traders all day long, 843 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 2: every day of the week, wouldn't it. 844 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:39,800 Speaker 15: And Celebrity Treasure Island is also, you know, a really 845 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:42,319 Speaker 15: good vehicle for New Zealand talent and humor and all 846 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:45,240 Speaker 15: of that. I would argue with you about the ratings 847 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,120 Speaker 15: of Traders I think, bearing in mind what free to 848 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:49,320 Speaker 15: Weere ratings are at the moment and what it also 849 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:51,840 Speaker 15: did online, it actually did very well and it is 850 00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 15: definitely a viewer fame. It's also the new Zealm versions 851 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 15: also thought of as one of the best in the world, 852 00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 15: and it is selling. And see that's that's the area 853 00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 15: where the growth is starting to happen. If you can 854 00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:04,839 Speaker 15: start to get more international sales, more international money, then 855 00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:06,880 Speaker 15: inded On his contribution can reduce. 856 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, fair enough. 857 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:09,880 Speaker 15: But yeah, it's a heck of a time for inded 858 00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 15: On here. Honestly, the pressure on them for the decisions 859 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:14,520 Speaker 15: at the moment is intense. 860 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:17,360 Speaker 2: Should I go on Celebrity Treasure Island give them the. 861 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:22,680 Speaker 15: Help, Well, that would be entirely up to you. 862 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 6: Right. 863 00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:25,400 Speaker 2: It invited me on a number of years ago. But 864 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:27,759 Speaker 2: you know they don't pay any money, and I, you know, 865 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:34,520 Speaker 2: like one would I don't think so, Yes, you probably wins, 866 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:36,920 Speaker 2: I reckon, I probably would. I ring nice to talk 867 00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:39,000 Speaker 2: to you, Iren Gardener, who's the president of the Screen 868 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,920 Speaker 2: Production Development Association. See now I can't do it because 869 00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:44,040 Speaker 2: if I went on and won, everyone go, oh that's rigged. 870 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:46,520 Speaker 2: Don't you have to form alliances on those sorts of shows? 871 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:49,719 Speaker 2: No alliance of one. I'd change the format. It'll be 872 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:52,160 Speaker 2: an alliance of one. 873 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:57,640 Speaker 1: Seven The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on aheart 874 00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,040 Speaker 1: radio Power News talks evy. 875 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:02,359 Speaker 15: Right. 876 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:04,680 Speaker 2: If you're a sales leader, you know how important it 877 00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:07,719 Speaker 2: is to respond to those old requests for proposal from 878 00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:09,719 Speaker 2: a potential customer. You've got to do it quickly, got 879 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 2: to do it effectively. So speed, precision, and standout messaging 880 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 2: in that RFP response can make all the difference of 881 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 2: course and winning that new business. So what if AI 882 00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:21,120 Speaker 2: could help you respond better, automating that production of your 883 00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 2: proposal while keeping your own unique company style and brand 884 00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:25,399 Speaker 2: on tame.

Past game seven, twenty four. 896 00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,480 Speaker 2: I do you know what, I've at least partially changed 897 00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:03,759 Speaker 2: my mind on charging tourists. So the idea that you 898 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:05,880 Speaker 2: can wander around our conservation of state for free is 899 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:08,399 Speaker 2: of course nuns. And like the various charges that we've 900 00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:10,440 Speaker 2: placed on tourists, whether it be at the border or 901 00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:12,600 Speaker 2: potentially in a hotel with a bed tax, the simple 902 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 2: truth is if we got our act together in terms 903 00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:18,080 Speaker 2: of marketing and seek capacity into the country, people would 904 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 2: actually be happy to pay. Why because everyone pays for 905 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 2: everything all over the world. And if post COVID travelers 906 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 2: taught us anything it's that you can basically rob a 907 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:29,560 Speaker 2: tourist blind they're still happy to pay. And that's before 908 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 2: you get to the bit where our dollar is so pathetic. 909 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:34,839 Speaker 2: Most people coming here can't believe what they get in exchange. 910 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,400 Speaker 2: But as part of the conservation announcement over the weekend, 911 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 2: if you followed that, what we also got was New 912 00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 2: Zealand's great problem, the negative reaction. As much as we 913 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:46,279 Speaker 2: love our open spaces and cleaner in national parks, you 914 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 2: have never seen a group of people more determined not 915 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:52,640 Speaker 2: to have anyone else touch them. God forbid, we should 916 00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:55,120 Speaker 2: open the place up to a bit more business. We've 917 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 2: seen it for years in the rama, of course, and 918 00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:59,560 Speaker 2: groups like Forest and Bird, who must have spent millions 919 00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,319 Speaker 2: by now hour on lawyers and the Environment Court looking 920 00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 2: not to change anything. Are the quiet Skies type groups 921 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:08,400 Speaker 2: of Wayhiki in various other locations around the country determine 922 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:11,320 Speaker 2: never to see a chopper polluting their environs. Ever, again, 923 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:15,000 Speaker 2: there is this default position whereby we're happy to be 924 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 2: left tolone. We don't like intelopers, intruders or eck tourists, 925 00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:22,080 Speaker 2: and we certainly don't want them tramping over our stuff, 926 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 2: far less eck landing a helicopter and then tramping over 927 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,560 Speaker 2: our stuff. We don't like cruise ships either, so we've 928 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:33,120 Speaker 2: made them ruinously expensive to park here so they don't anymore. 929 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:36,360 Speaker 2: Yay win for the greenies. What we do like, though, 930 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 2: there's lots more money, lots more hospital beds, much more education, 931 00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:43,560 Speaker 2: lots of welfare, lots of generous dollops of free stuff, 932 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:45,719 Speaker 2: all paid for by the money tree in Wellington. The 933 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:50,160 Speaker 2: fact tourism, the conservation estate, ships and rich Americans and 934 00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:52,880 Speaker 2: EC one thirties pay for a lot of that doesn't 935 00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 2: seem to have registered hosking. I reckon you could have 936 00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:58,240 Speaker 2: driven a truck through her response to you being on Treasure, 937 00:43:58,320 --> 00:43:59,719 Speaker 2: and yeah, I reckon you probably could. To What she 938 00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:02,920 Speaker 2: was actually thinking is she's a television programmer for wayback. 939 00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:05,960 Speaker 2: She was just thinking how transformational that would be me 940 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:08,759 Speaker 2: appearing on Treasure. That was her programming mind there. So 941 00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:11,120 Speaker 2: it wasn't negative. I saw it as positive. Mike, when's 942 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:12,760 Speaker 2: the last time you watched primetime television? 943 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:12,920 Speaker 3: For you? 944 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:14,719 Speaker 2: But that's a very good point. No one does any well, well, 945 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 2: that's not true. People do, which I didn't honestly realize. 946 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:20,280 Speaker 2: And I trust her. She's one of the brightest brains 947 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 2: in broadcasting in this country. It stuns me to think that. 948 00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:28,440 Speaker 2: So this goes back to my experience on television back 949 00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:31,440 Speaker 2: in those days. You would get the biggest program in 950 00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:33,759 Speaker 2: television is the new six o'clock news on TV one, 951 00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:38,359 Speaker 2: followed by seven sharp, followed by probably Shortland Street, and 952 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:41,360 Speaker 2: after that falls off a cliff. But you're down to 953 00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:44,680 Speaker 2: two hundred thousand people something like that. But I still assumed, 954 00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:47,640 Speaker 2: obviously incorrectly, that at two two hundred and fifty thousand people, 955 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 2: you can put together a program and wrap some advertising, 956 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,399 Speaker 2: branding and marketing around it that would at least pay 957 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:56,120 Speaker 2: that program's way, if not make money. Now she's telling 958 00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 2: us that's not true. Now that's not true. We're buggett 959 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 2: because basically, apart from three programs on television and occasionally 960 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,160 Speaker 2: used to get your Dancing with the Stars and all 961 00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:08,280 Speaker 2: that sort of stuff, apart from three programs on television, 962 00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:12,240 Speaker 2: I the New seven Sharp and Country Calendar or Shortland 963 00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:15,560 Speaker 2: Street television doesn't make any money anymore. And if that's 964 00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:18,160 Speaker 2: the case, we really are truly in trouble. Mike, I 965 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:20,320 Speaker 2: never watched TV, but if you went on Treasure Island, 966 00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:22,400 Speaker 2: I would, well, there you go. You see, that's the 967 00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:28,759 Speaker 2: sort of ratings pull. I had news for you in 968 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:30,480 Speaker 2: a moment than Erica Stanford. 969 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 1: New Zealand's voice of reason is Mike the Mic asking 970 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:40,520 Speaker 1: Breakfast with Vida, Retirement, Communities, Life your Way, News togstead 971 00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:41,600 Speaker 1: b three. 972 00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:43,560 Speaker 2: Minutes away from a So just a reminder of where 973 00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:46,520 Speaker 2: we're going educationally as of yesterday, So level one is going. 974 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:49,600 Speaker 2: We will have a New Foundational Skills Award recognizing literacy 975 00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:52,320 Speaker 2: and numeracy.

I think parents intuitively knew that 983 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:16,839 Speaker 17: there was something that wasn't quite right about NCA, and 984 00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:18,640 Speaker 17: they've had the space to be able to say over 985 00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:21,400 Speaker 17: the last couple of weeks, actually it hasn't been working 986 00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:23,920 Speaker 17: in these ways for our children, and now they get 987 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:25,960 Speaker 17: to have their say with the new plan that's out 988 00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:27,080 Speaker 17: for consultation today. 989 00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:30,760 Speaker 2: Did you look at Cambridge Baccalaureate anything that was already 990 00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:32,680 Speaker 2: in play, simply replace it or not. 991 00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 17: I had a group of about twenty great principles who 992 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:38,799 Speaker 17: formed an advisory group for me, and they looked at 993 00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 17: every jurisdiction across the world and looked what worked, what 994 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:46,359 Speaker 17: didn't work, and pulled together the plan that you see 995 00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:49,480 Speaker 17: in front of you. There are certain things about Cambridge 996 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:51,960 Speaker 17: that are great, there are certain things that aren't quite right, 997 00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:54,279 Speaker 17: and so we've looked at what we can do to 998 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:55,200 Speaker 17: be world leading. 999 00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:58,920 Speaker 2: Okay, so this would be something that the rest of 1000 00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:01,000 Speaker 2: the world will look at in time and go we 1001 00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:01,920 Speaker 2: will do that too. 1002 00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 17: Well, that is a plan with all of my education reforms. 1003 00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:06,600 Speaker 17: I want us to be world leading. We've already had 1004 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:11,319 Speaker 17: accolades about our primary maths and English curriculum. We've had 1005 00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 17: accolades about moving to structure. Let you see, the first 1006 00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:15,319 Speaker 17: country in the world to do so, all of the 1007 00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:18,360 Speaker 17: resources we're pumping in, I've got other countries now coming 1008 00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:20,719 Speaker 17: to us looking at our teachers and what they're doing 1009 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:23,040 Speaker 17: on the ground and saying we want to replicate this, 1010 00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:24,520 Speaker 17: and that's a great place for us to Do. 1011 00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:26,920 Speaker 2: You have any sense or did you reach out? Do 1012 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,960 Speaker 2: you have any sense of the bipartisanship required here? What's 1013 00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:32,000 Speaker 2: to stop them flipping it? 1014 00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:34,560 Speaker 17: It's really important. This is our national qualification. And I 1015 00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:37,160 Speaker 17: made the point very early on in this process that 1016 00:47:37,480 --> 00:47:39,560 Speaker 17: we have to be aligned on this. We cannot be 1017 00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:42,279 Speaker 17: flip flopping. And of course I reached out and I've 1018 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:44,399 Speaker 17: been very dogmatic about that. 1019 00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:46,759 Speaker 2: And are they on board, Well, you'll have to ask 1020 00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:49,600 Speaker 2: them about that. While I was watching them yesterday, they 1021 00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:53,440 Speaker 2: don't seem committed to it. Does it worry you? I mean, 1022 00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:55,800 Speaker 2: you've just thrown out twenty years of something that apparently 1023 00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:57,960 Speaker 2: we were living with perfectly happily. What's to stop them 1024 00:47:58,000 --> 00:47:58,480 Speaker 2: throwing out? 1025 00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:00,680 Speaker 17: Well, I'm sure I don't think we were living with 1026 00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:03,719 Speaker 17: it perfectly happily because I don't think kids were reaching 1027 00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:05,680 Speaker 17: their full potential and we weren't ambitious enough. And we 1028 00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:06,480 Speaker 17: are ambitious. 1029 00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:10,080 Speaker 2: So my only problem with what was announced yesterday is 1030 00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:12,319 Speaker 2: that if you've got kids, and having had five of them, 1031 00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:14,319 Speaker 2: there's some experience for you. But if you've got kids 1032 00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:16,160 Speaker 2: that are on a pathway and know what they're doing, 1033 00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:19,080 Speaker 2: choice is a good thing. And it may be that 1034 00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:21,800 Speaker 2: English isn't what they need in year twelve or thirteen 1035 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:23,399 Speaker 2: or eleven or whatever. You know, they may be going 1036 00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:25,879 Speaker 2: somewhere else whereas this takes that away from them. 1037 00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:29,000 Speaker 17: No, not really. We are trying to get that balance right, 1038 00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:34,360 Speaker 17: the perfect balance of flexibility with consistency, taking away some 1039 00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:37,040 Speaker 17: of the complexity for more simplicity. But there will be choice. 1040 00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:39,239 Speaker 17: We are saying you have to do foundational English and 1041 00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:41,920 Speaker 17: maths when you're in year eleven. Most schools do that already, 1042 00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:46,080 Speaker 17: but some don't, So we're making that compulsory after that failure, 1043 00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:49,279 Speaker 17: boats choose the subjects that engage you, that lead to 1044 00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:52,399 Speaker 17: koreer pathways that you want. But the key difference will 1045 00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:55,120 Speaker 17: be when you study English or maths or physics, it 1046 00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:58,880 Speaker 17: will be against a world leading benchmarked curriculum and you 1047 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,840 Speaker 17: will learn the same thing as a child and invercargo 1048 00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:02,520 Speaker 17: compared to walk track. 1049 00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:04,879 Speaker 2: So here's part of the problem. Part of the problem 1050 00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:06,880 Speaker 2: will be is you're going to need to limit subjects, 1051 00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:10,080 Speaker 2: aren't you from what we've currently got. Once you've limited subjects, 1052 00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:12,120 Speaker 2: I'm looking at these subjects. I don't really want to 1053 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:14,480 Speaker 2: be at school. It's a bit boring. So I used 1054 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:16,319 Speaker 2: to do dance and drama or whatever it may be. 1055 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:18,359 Speaker 2: Now I've got to take something serious and I may 1056 00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:20,600 Speaker 2: well fail. And when I fail, then what happens. 1057 00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:23,239 Speaker 17: I'm not sure where everyone's getting this view that we're 1058 00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:25,920 Speaker 17: going to be limiting all these subjects. We are taking 1059 00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:27,960 Speaker 17: a look at the subject list. This is a separate 1060 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:30,879 Speaker 17: stream of work, separate to the qualification. We are looking 1061 00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:33,040 Speaker 17: at the amount of subjects we have and saying, look, 1062 00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:35,160 Speaker 17: how many children did them last year? How many children 1063 00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:37,120 Speaker 17: just did one stand in and going do we still 1064 00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:38,840 Speaker 17: need to be doing that, but that happens all the time. 1065 00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:42,120 Speaker 17: We still want to have choice. Children should still be 1066 00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:44,839 Speaker 17: doing dance and drama and the things that excite them 1067 00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:47,920 Speaker 17: and lead them maybe into the theater or whatever, so 1068 00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:49,240 Speaker 17: those things will still be available. 1069 00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:51,760 Speaker 2: Of course, what about the trade side of the equation? 1070 00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:55,439 Speaker 2: How limited will that be depending on where you are 1071 00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:57,960 Speaker 2: in the country geographically, in the size of your school. 1072 00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:00,960 Speaker 17: That is a challenge and I've seen publicly. I want 1073 00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:04,000 Speaker 17: the VET pathways to be strong and industry aligned and 1074 00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:07,800 Speaker 17: relevant and tertiary aligned. The challenge of courses that schools 1075 00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:10,719 Speaker 17: aren't always able to have an automotive electrician or engineer 1076 00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:14,560 Speaker 17: in their school. We have to partner with the polytechs 1077 00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:17,160 Speaker 17: and also the private training organizations to make this work. 1078 00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:19,600 Speaker 17: And this is I'm not going to pretend this is 1079 00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:20,960 Speaker 17: going to be an easy piece of work. It's going 1080 00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:23,160 Speaker 17: to be tough, but we're going to do it. We're 1081 00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:24,759 Speaker 17: going to make sure that no matter which school you're in, 1082 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:27,319 Speaker 17: you have access to these pathways, and we will work 1083 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:29,320 Speaker 17: with the industry standards boards to make sure the standards 1084 00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:29,840 Speaker 17: are relevant. 1085 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:32,480 Speaker 2: The answer will come in the exam results I'm assuming, 1086 00:50:32,520 --> 00:50:34,279 Speaker 2: but when will we know this works? So if it 1087 00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:37,160 Speaker 2: starts in twenty seven, twenty eight, so twenty eight, when 1088 00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:38,000 Speaker 2: do we know it works? 1089 00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:40,560 Speaker 17: Well, we will already know from next year because the 1090 00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:43,600 Speaker 17: English and Maths curriculum are gazetted for next year for 1091 00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:47,080 Speaker 17: our third forms, our year nines, so they will start 1092 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:49,400 Speaker 17: to use the new curriculum and then the other subjects 1093 00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:51,360 Speaker 17: will roll through as well, so we will start to 1094 00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:54,719 Speaker 17: already see the results of the new curriculum through the 1095 00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:57,040 Speaker 17: other assessment tools that we use and teach your feedback 1096 00:50:57,200 --> 00:50:59,239 Speaker 17: and school feedback before we get there. 1097 00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:02,240 Speaker 2: Okay, put your immigration had on just quickly. Golden visas. 1098 00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:05,280 Speaker 2: Are they still continuing to bring people in with money? 1099 00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:06,000 Speaker 11: They are? 1100 00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:09,640 Speaker 17: It has a tape it off slightly, but it's a 1101 00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:11,320 Speaker 17: huge amount stronger than I thought it would be. I 1102 00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:13,400 Speaker 17: said two hundred in the first year. I think we 1103 00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:15,680 Speaker 17: were at two hundred in the first six weeks or 1104 00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:18,520 Speaker 17: ten weeks, so it's still very strong. Although I would 1105 00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:20,759 Speaker 17: say that if you know they have the ability to 1106 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 17: be able to buy a house, that will supercharge it again. 1107 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:27,200 Speaker 2: You know, Erica, you have the power to do that. 1108 00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:29,200 Speaker 2: Funnily enough, because you're in government, there. 1109 00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:30,839 Speaker 17: Are some things so slightly ahead of my. 1110 00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 2: Paypack at the country. 1111 00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:34,840 Speaker 17: Well, I've had my say, and I've said publicly and 1112 00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:37,240 Speaker 17: I've said to other people in my party and the government, 1113 00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:39,239 Speaker 17: if you're going to ask people to come in and 1114 00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:42,200 Speaker 17: invest at least five if not ten, mate, potentially we 1115 00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:45,239 Speaker 17: want more out of them. Of course, then saying to 1116 00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:48,280 Speaker 17: them but you can't buy a house is not ideal. 1117 00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:50,880 Speaker 17: And like I think everyone in government is pretty pragmatic 1118 00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:52,680 Speaker 17: about that, and there are conversations that have been had 1119 00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:55,400 Speaker 17: and I expect that there will most likely be some changes. 1120 00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:58,759 Speaker 17: But look, as I've said, ahead, it's above my pay 1121 00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:00,279 Speaker 17: grade and that's sort of leader to lead as it 1122 00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:00,640 Speaker 17: should be. 1123 00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:03,160 Speaker 2: All right, good stuff, Nice to see Eric Stamford, Education 1124 00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:05,120 Speaker 2: and Immigration Minister, seventeen to. 1125 00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:10,560 Speaker 1: Wait the Vike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, 1126 00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:12,239 Speaker 1: Power by the News Talks, It'd be. 1127 00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:15,640 Speaker 2: So bloody Winston. Mike's still the handbreak on the Golden 1128 00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:17,759 Speaker 2: visa applicants being able to buy a house. Can't wait 1129 00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:20,959 Speaker 2: to have him gone from politics. You won't be He's 1130 00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:23,760 Speaker 2: he's good to go. He's well about the five percent 1131 00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:26,440 Speaker 2: these days. The interesting thing is once they announce at 1132 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:29,719 Speaker 2: which they're about to is what the explanation is. They're 1133 00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:32,399 Speaker 2: going to need to have done something that you yeah, 1134 00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:34,319 Speaker 2: he needs to have backed down in some way, shape 1135 00:52:34,400 --> 00:52:36,400 Speaker 2: or form. He needs to be able to explain something 1136 00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:41,920 Speaker 2: that they've manipulated. My guess is the number and National 1137 00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:43,840 Speaker 2: went back to them on five million. They may be 1138 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:47,439 Speaker 2: down at four or three, and then Winston may well 1139 00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:49,480 Speaker 2: have gone. And Peter Thompson was talking about it from 1140 00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:51,440 Speaker 2: Barforot and Thompson earlier on the program. They may go 1141 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:54,320 Speaker 2: look Auckland, yes we can do three or four, Queenstown, 1142 00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:55,880 Speaker 2: yes we'll do three or four. But we've got to 1143 00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:58,160 Speaker 2: go lower in a place like Tawonga at maybe one 1144 00:52:58,239 --> 00:52:59,480 Speaker 2: or two. You know what I'm saying. So I think 1145 00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:03,040 Speaker 2: they're gonna have sort of manipulate it and explain it 1146 00:53:03,080 --> 00:53:05,319 Speaker 2: away that way because there is just no logic now, 1147 00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:09,600 Speaker 2: it's just too absurd. Anyway, back to speaking absurd and education. 1148 00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:12,759 Speaker 2: This social media band that we're getting up and running 1149 00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:14,680 Speaker 2: in December in Australia which is a joke and it 1150 00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:17,080 Speaker 2: won't work. And the revelation this morning for the Sydney 1151 00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:18,840 Speaker 2: Morning Herald and you should read it. There's a good reason. 1152 00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:20,799 Speaker 2: The headline, there's a good reason why the social media 1153 00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:23,640 Speaker 2: band won't work, and the government knows it. And this 1154 00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:25,440 Speaker 2: is why we're never going to go anywhere with it, 1155 00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:30,160 Speaker 2: because it's all window dressing. Children will always, write Meg Keinowski. 1156 00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:33,240 Speaker 2: Children will always find a way to circumnavigate your online 1157 00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:35,600 Speaker 2: roadblocks because they know the terrain better than you. I mean, 1158 00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:37,960 Speaker 2: that's obvious, isn't it. Seventy percent that had a poll. 1159 00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:41,800 Speaker 2: Seventy percent of those surveyed for the paper were skeptical 1160 00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:43,719 Speaker 2: the plan would be effective. See, we all know, we 1161 00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:47,120 Speaker 2: all want some sort of control of social media. We 1162 00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:49,760 Speaker 2: all want our kids is safe on social media. That's 1163 00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:53,080 Speaker 2: a given. But you've got to take the next leap 1164 00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:54,719 Speaker 2: and go can we do it? And the answers no. 1165 00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:59,640 Speaker 2: So they conducted their own test for this particular article 1166 00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:03,320 Speaker 2: and just randomly, you know, with no algorithm, no background, 1167 00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:05,919 Speaker 2: know nothing as to who you were. How long would 1168 00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:07,959 Speaker 2: it take for weird stuff to pop up on your feet? 1169 00:54:08,640 --> 00:54:10,920 Speaker 2: So within three minutes we had a homophobic joke, a 1170 00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:14,000 Speaker 2: racist AI imaging of a cultural group taking over Sydney, 1171 00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:17,560 Speaker 2: a movie scene depicting masturbation. They were among the videos 1172 00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:20,640 Speaker 2: that popped up within three and a half minutes. This feels, 1173 00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:23,040 Speaker 2: says the writer, like an opportune time to mention that 1174 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:25,600 Speaker 2: the average Australian primary schoolers said to rack up six 1175 00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:27,560 Speaker 2: and a half hours of screen time a day so 1176 00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:29,839 Speaker 2: left their own devices. Imagine what they can see on 1177 00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:32,719 Speaker 2: this so called band. And this is the crux of it. 1178 00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:36,840 Speaker 2: The holes in this legislation are gaping and to me 1179 00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:39,880 Speaker 2: indicate that while Anthony Albanesi and as Ministers may have 1180 00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:43,879 Speaker 2: no idea how jen Elfers really use social media, they 1181 00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:47,520 Speaker 2: do know one thing. Their band won't work and they 1182 00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:52,560 Speaker 2: don't particularly care how bad' is that? Twelve away no, 1183 00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:53,719 Speaker 2: make it eleven away from it. 1184 00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:58,719 Speaker 1: The Mike Hosking breakfast with al Vida Retirement Communities News 1185 00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:00,319 Speaker 1: togsad been away from mate. 1186 00:55:00,360 --> 00:55:02,400 Speaker 2: So having dispensed with the French, it's time for the 1187 00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:04,520 Speaker 2: Rugby Championship. The first game as against the Pumas in 1188 00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:06,120 Speaker 2: a week and a half. Of course, six players have 1189 00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:08,160 Speaker 2: been added to the wider squad as of yesterday as 1190 00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:10,680 Speaker 2: injury cover the chiefs loose Ford Simon Parker is the 1191 00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:12,520 Speaker 2: only end cap pader to join the thirty six month 1192 00:55:12,560 --> 00:55:15,239 Speaker 2: squat anyway, Scott Roberson as coach of course, and he's 1193 00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:15,960 Speaker 2: back well this morning. 1194 00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:17,279 Speaker 6: Okay, good morning, Mike. 1195 00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:19,959 Speaker 2: What's your assessment of the season so far? All those 1196 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:24,280 Speaker 2: all those French wins of yours. 1197 00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 6: Look, yeah, they're gritty, there were battle hard in the 1198 00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:30,680 Speaker 6: French and they's nothing to lose. It's probably when they're 1199 00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:34,479 Speaker 6: at their best. We'll really please these areas were always 1200 00:55:34,520 --> 00:55:38,440 Speaker 6: get to improve and which couldn't en it. First tests, 1201 00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:42,279 Speaker 6: you know, a couple of scores out from them, you know, 1202 00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:44,880 Speaker 6: three dislowed tries and four in the last so just 1203 00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:47,880 Speaker 6: they just keep them minute and but we're really really 1204 00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:49,600 Speaker 6: pleased with a lot of the young players that have 1205 00:55:49,680 --> 00:55:52,480 Speaker 6: come through got of the past form that come out 1206 00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:57,200 Speaker 6: of super But on balance we've done for good things 1207 00:55:57,200 --> 00:55:59,000 Speaker 6: in some areas to improve on good stuff. 1208 00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:00,800 Speaker 2: What are your thoughts on jumping on a plane and 1209 00:56:00,840 --> 00:56:02,960 Speaker 2: going all the way to Argentina first away? You know, 1210 00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:04,640 Speaker 2: do you talk to people about that? Is that a 1211 00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:05,160 Speaker 2: thing or not? 1212 00:56:05,200 --> 00:56:10,719 Speaker 6: Really? Yeah, Look, we're chipping have to. We're at the 1213 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:13,439 Speaker 6: bottom of the of the world, you know, and we've 1214 00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:17,160 Speaker 6: been what sixty percent of our tessa are away even 1215 00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:19,600 Speaker 6: more and he used to be used to it and 1216 00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:23,799 Speaker 6: Enjoy it, this one gift of footy, especially being at 1217 00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:25,719 Speaker 6: the allbacks you're going to be on the road. Enjoy it. 1218 00:56:26,520 --> 00:56:29,359 Speaker 6: Make some good times of it. You know, you sit 1219 00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:30,799 Speaker 6: up in front of the plane, so it's not all 1220 00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:34,000 Speaker 6: too that, but you know, we go these hostile places 1221 00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:35,799 Speaker 6: and that's that's a great part of it. 1222 00:56:36,040 --> 00:56:38,600 Speaker 2: No, not now, listen, I'm having trouble at work this week, Scott. 1223 00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:40,359 Speaker 2: Let me tell you my problem. I have you two 1224 00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:42,920 Speaker 2: for two in Argentina, right. I don't see Argentina being 1225 00:56:42,960 --> 00:56:45,560 Speaker 2: particularly a major impediment for you, But I have people 1226 00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:48,000 Speaker 2: in the sports department that are questioning that. Am I right? 1227 00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:48,680 Speaker 2: Or are they right? 1228 00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:54,279 Speaker 6: Oh? I think what they're saying is Argentina a good 1229 00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:57,040 Speaker 6: team and they are well coached. A lot of their 1230 00:56:57,040 --> 00:57:02,520 Speaker 6: players play in the top fourteen. They've got high cohesions, 1231 00:57:02,520 --> 00:57:06,120 Speaker 6: so they're a lot together. They are real threat. But 1232 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:07,080 Speaker 6: thanks for the support. 1233 00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:09,719 Speaker 2: No worries at all. Are they on a tragedy? See? 1234 00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:11,640 Speaker 2: I still see them as a bit roping. They can 1235 00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:13,560 Speaker 2: be brilliant, but not all the time. Do you think 1236 00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:16,480 Speaker 2: they're on a general trajectory towards betterness? 1237 00:57:18,360 --> 00:57:20,280 Speaker 6: Yeah? Look, if you look at it, the bit the 1238 00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:22,600 Speaker 6: Lions and then they came back. Not all the players 1239 00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:25,360 Speaker 6: are available for their England series but and it was 1240 00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:28,640 Speaker 6: good English side and they play some great footy overall 1241 00:57:28,680 --> 00:57:30,959 Speaker 6: the balance, they've got a couple of young, well young 1242 00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:33,920 Speaker 6: guys coming through and like I said, season that experienced 1243 00:57:33,920 --> 00:57:36,920 Speaker 6: players and obviously Pablo is one of them. You get 1244 00:57:36,920 --> 00:57:43,520 Speaker 6: them on a night, they're leadin emotions right on. They 1245 00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:46,040 Speaker 6: are very, very tough to beat, so we have to 1246 00:57:46,080 --> 00:57:46,680 Speaker 6: be at their best. 1247 00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:48,920 Speaker 2: Okay, speaking of the Lions, what do you make of 1248 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:51,760 Speaker 2: that test? Was Australia really coming to life or the 1249 00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:54,360 Speaker 2: Lions already on the plane halfway home having won the series. 1250 00:57:56,720 --> 00:57:59,640 Speaker 6: I think it was a test match of two of 1251 00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:02,080 Speaker 6: most and there's a lot of hurt with the Assies 1252 00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:04,560 Speaker 6: and they showed it. They want to show how much 1253 00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:09,160 Speaker 6: they care for their Jozy and you know, the ray 1254 00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:11,200 Speaker 6: and the drama, everything that came with it was a 1255 00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:14,920 Speaker 6: pretty special occasion. And that's Tess Putty. That's tough. Anyone 1256 00:58:14,960 --> 00:58:18,480 Speaker 6: can win. It's it's hyped up all week. There's lots 1257 00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:22,800 Speaker 6: of personal stuff comes with it, and you know everyone's 1258 00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:24,080 Speaker 6: eyes are on it. It's beautiful. 1259 00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:24,600 Speaker 8: Yeah. 1260 00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:26,840 Speaker 2: The other thing I was arguing with Jason Pine and 1261 00:58:26,880 --> 00:58:28,560 Speaker 2: sav you can help me out with us as well 1262 00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:31,720 Speaker 2: with your injury issues.

You've got to look forward, you got to go. 1264 00:58:33,360 --> 00:58:35,120 Speaker 2: I mean, you can't fix them. If you fix them, 1265 00:58:35,520 --> 00:58:37,040 Speaker 2: you would, but you know, you got to deal with 1266 00:58:37,040 --> 00:58:37,800 Speaker 2: what you got to deal with. 1267 00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:43,360 Speaker 6: That's part of the game. There is there a contact sport. 1268 00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:45,840 Speaker 6: It's brutal. You never know you're going to get some 1269 00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:49,280 Speaker 6: runs as a player that you can get big two 1270 00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:51,520 Speaker 6: or three years and then you get two or three injuries. 1271 00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:53,920 Speaker 6: And the big three for us is when you get 1272 00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:57,240 Speaker 6: a double break in one position like half back. It's great, 1273 00:58:57,240 --> 00:58:59,000 Speaker 6: they were going to be fiddly Christian, but those are 1274 00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:01,520 Speaker 6: the ones where you trying, like I've got that project 1275 00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:04,080 Speaker 6: four deep, which I've talked you about before, and when 1276 00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:06,960 Speaker 6: a couple of those go and you can bring an 1277 00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:11,280 Speaker 6: experienced back, it's great, but it gives up to somebody else. 1278 00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:14,360 Speaker 6: But yeah, you want your dispass all the time that 1279 00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:15,400 Speaker 6: sometimes it doesn't. 1280 00:59:15,160 --> 00:59:18,120 Speaker 2: Happen quite right.

Hi, thank you, no worries it all. 1308 01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:48,120 Speaker 2: Tell me about Britain so far, the move, how it 1309 01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:50,040 Speaker 2: came about, and how you're settling in. 1310 01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:52,720 Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean it's been a big move. I thought 1311 01:00:52,720 --> 01:00:55,680 Speaker 13: moving to an English speaking country would be a little 1312 01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:58,320 Speaker 13: bit more similar than it is. But I'm adapting well. 1313 01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:00,920 Speaker 13: I moved over here because as I got selected to 1314 01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:03,400 Speaker 13: be part of the Asta Martin Driver Academy last year, 1315 01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:07,720 Speaker 13: so moved over here kind of getting my pathway into 1316 01:01:07,760 --> 01:01:09,560 Speaker 13: the UK europe scene in racing. 1317 01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:12,920 Speaker 2: Tell me about Eston Martin, what they did for you 1318 01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:15,840 Speaker 2: and how successful you were. I know how successful you 1319 01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:17,720 Speaker 2: were in one race, but just talk us through it. 1320 01:01:18,000 --> 01:01:18,280 Speaker 7: Yeah. 1321 01:01:18,320 --> 01:01:21,120 Speaker 13: So I ended up winning a shootout in America with 1322 01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:24,160 Speaker 13: the heart of racing against nine other females. We got 1323 01:01:24,160 --> 01:01:27,280 Speaker 13: a year of racing in GT four SRA America and 1324 01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:30,120 Speaker 13: we had a tough year of racing, but we ended 1325 01:01:30,160 --> 01:01:34,200 Speaker 13: up really really strong with a few top three qualifyings, 1326 01:01:34,240 --> 01:01:38,800 Speaker 13: and we ended up with creating history in Indianapolis, being 1327 01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:41,640 Speaker 13: the first ever female duo to win the GT for Advantage, 1328 01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:44,520 Speaker 13: So ending on a big high, being able to kiss 1329 01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:47,000 Speaker 13: the bricks. It was an amazing feeling, and we want 1330 01:01:47,040 --> 01:01:47,720 Speaker 13: to get back there. 1331 01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:50,720 Speaker 2: I happened when you say vantage, I don't want to 1332 01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:53,640 Speaker 2: show off or anything. I happen to have advantage. What's 1333 01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:57,040 Speaker 2: the difference between what's the difference between my vantage that 1334 01:01:57,120 --> 01:01:59,520 Speaker 2: I'm driving and your GT four vantage? 1335 01:01:59,680 --> 01:02:02,320 Speaker 13: Well, our Duty four race Vantage will be set up 1336 01:02:02,480 --> 01:02:05,320 Speaker 13: for race tracks. Yours is more of a road vehicle, 1337 01:02:05,440 --> 01:02:08,600 Speaker 13: so we've got a good old harnessing and just some 1338 01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:13,040 Speaker 13: more race dynamics with race brakes and suspension. But Duty 1339 01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:15,800 Speaker 13: four is based on road cars, so they would be 1340 01:02:15,880 --> 01:02:20,520 Speaker 13: pretty similar apart from their you know FIA standards. 1341 01:02:20,240 --> 01:02:23,040 Speaker 2: You are typical. I think of most race drivers. You 1342 01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:26,040 Speaker 2: start in cuts, you move your way on up. Eventually 1343 01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:28,680 Speaker 2: you want to be in the F one Academy and 1344 01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:30,840 Speaker 2: that may well come your way very shortly. We'll talk 1345 01:02:30,840 --> 01:02:33,840 Speaker 2: about that in a second. What's the gap between jumping 1346 01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:35,880 Speaker 2: out of a cart and then to say a Toyota 1347 01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:36,479 Speaker 2: eighty six. 1348 01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:40,560 Speaker 13: It was a massive learning curve for me. I did 1349 01:02:40,560 --> 01:02:42,280 Speaker 13: it quite late, so I did it when I was 1350 01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:45,520 Speaker 13: about twenty one. Usually you make that jump at about 1351 01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:49,680 Speaker 13: sixteen seventeen. But I had the help of a lot 1352 01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:53,400 Speaker 13: of people in New Zealand to get me from driving 1353 01:02:53,400 --> 01:02:56,680 Speaker 13: a go kart well to driving a car. Well. Tim White, 1354 01:02:56,760 --> 01:02:59,320 Speaker 13: my engineer, helped me a lot and I did my 1355 01:02:59,440 --> 01:03:01,560 Speaker 13: year with the high of racing, but also with my 1356 01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:04,800 Speaker 13: sponsor's Golden Home, Southern Lakes Edifice Property Group and dall 1357 01:03:04,880 --> 01:03:07,720 Speaker 13: It and they all kind of supported me, getting me 1358 01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:11,680 Speaker 13: some driver training to make that switch. And it was 1359 01:03:11,720 --> 01:03:14,800 Speaker 13: all about adapting to car weights. It's very different to 1360 01:03:14,840 --> 01:03:18,120 Speaker 13: a go carts, very small, very lights, and the car 1361 01:03:18,240 --> 01:03:20,760 Speaker 13: was very heavy, so getting used to that was probably 1362 01:03:20,800 --> 01:03:21,880 Speaker 13: the biggest challenge. 1363 01:03:22,120 --> 01:03:24,400 Speaker 2: The I love the way you just rolled off your 1364 01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:28,000 Speaker 2: sponsors there, because that is one of the quintessential things 1365 01:03:28,040 --> 01:03:30,640 Speaker 2: about motor racing, isn't it. To be successful you not 1366 01:03:30,680 --> 01:03:32,840 Speaker 2: only have to be fast, you've got to. 1367 01:03:32,840 --> 01:03:37,360 Speaker 13: Have backing on It is a massive part, especially for 1368 01:03:37,520 --> 01:03:41,320 Speaker 13: you know us kiwis coming over into the UK and Europe. 1369 01:03:41,360 --> 01:03:43,480 Speaker 13: You know, we get met with some big people with 1370 01:03:43,560 --> 01:03:47,120 Speaker 13: some big budgets and having the backing, especially from home, 1371 01:03:47,240 --> 01:03:49,440 Speaker 13: is really special. I want to be able to create 1372 01:03:49,960 --> 01:03:53,320 Speaker 13: history for New Zealand as well as myself, and I've 1373 01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:55,440 Speaker 13: managed to do that a couple three times now in 1374 01:03:55,520 --> 01:03:59,360 Speaker 13: casting and then once in car racing. And you know, 1375 01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:02,280 Speaker 13: I've had Tony Quinn helped me in the UK to 1376 01:04:02,400 --> 01:04:05,480 Speaker 13: race last year. It was the only way I got 1377 01:04:05,520 --> 01:04:08,200 Speaker 13: on track with him and Golden Home Southern Lakes. So 1378 01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:11,680 Speaker 13: I mean, I can't thank them enough, and I hope 1379 01:04:11,680 --> 01:04:14,280 Speaker 13: that I'm doing them proud and we can kind of 1380 01:04:14,360 --> 01:04:17,040 Speaker 13: carry on that relationship into Ethron Academy. 1381 01:04:17,400 --> 01:04:21,320 Speaker 2: Were you always fast? Were you instantly automatically and naturally fast? 1382 01:04:21,880 --> 01:04:26,360 Speaker 13: The first day I got into the go kart, we 1383 01:04:26,360 --> 01:04:30,080 Speaker 13: were a bit shocked. I actually had the thought was 1384 01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:32,960 Speaker 13: stuck on and we couldn't flow the gokut down. So 1385 01:04:33,040 --> 01:04:36,760 Speaker 13: everyone was like, She's so quick, She's handled this so well. 1386 01:04:37,120 --> 01:04:39,120 Speaker 13: Little did they know that the thought was stuck on. 1387 01:04:39,360 --> 01:04:42,400 Speaker 13: But I did have a natural kind of talent from 1388 01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:45,680 Speaker 13: the start. I did get driver training from Arie Hutton 1389 01:04:45,720 --> 01:04:50,800 Speaker 13: and Ryan Urban for about probably eight years between the two, 1390 01:04:51,440 --> 01:04:53,280 Speaker 13: so I did put the time and effort in to 1391 01:04:53,360 --> 01:04:56,600 Speaker 13: be able to adapt my skill, and we spent a 1392 01:04:56,640 --> 01:04:59,280 Speaker 13: lot of those years working closely with a trainer to 1393 01:04:59,440 --> 01:05:01,680 Speaker 13: be able to kind of be on that top edge 1394 01:05:01,720 --> 01:05:02,520 Speaker 13: of everybody else. 1395 01:05:02,560 --> 01:05:04,400 Speaker 2: All right, Rihanna, hold on for a couple of moments, 1396 01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:07,360 Speaker 2: more questions for you. Shortly, Rihanna, A mirror Hunt. It 1397 01:05:07,520 --> 01:05:08,600 Speaker 2: is twelve past eight. 1398 01:05:09,240 --> 01:05:13,320 Speaker 1: The Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeart Radio, 1399 01:05:13,520 --> 01:05:14,920 Speaker 1: cow it By News Talks. 1400 01:05:14,680 --> 01:05:17,640 Speaker 2: It be Use Talks, It be caught a past eight, Rhenanna, 1401 01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:19,560 Speaker 2: A mirror Hunt is with the Saving for the F 1402 01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:23,200 Speaker 2: one Academy. Listen, let me ask you, Rihanna, the gender question, 1403 01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:25,360 Speaker 2: because I can't quite work it out whether I mean, 1404 01:05:25,880 --> 01:05:27,400 Speaker 2: I mean it seems to me in driving a car, 1405 01:05:27,440 --> 01:05:29,880 Speaker 2: I can't see the difference. I mean maybe endurance racing, 1406 01:05:29,880 --> 01:05:32,560 Speaker 2: the difference maybe over you know, many many many laps 1407 01:05:32,560 --> 01:05:34,800 Speaker 2: in ours. Physical difference might be. It might be a thing, 1408 01:05:34,800 --> 01:05:37,360 Speaker 2: but the rest is mainly mental and skill, isn't it. 1409 01:05:40,160 --> 01:05:42,400 Speaker 13: I think once you put on a helmet, you're all equal, 1410 01:05:42,480 --> 01:05:45,760 Speaker 13: and that's what I love about racing. And the only 1411 01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:49,240 Speaker 13: difference I would say with single seaters is an F 1412 01:05:49,360 --> 01:05:52,880 Speaker 13: two and F three they don't have power steering, so 1413 01:05:53,160 --> 01:05:55,320 Speaker 13: you do have to be quite a bit stronger than 1414 01:05:55,360 --> 01:05:59,520 Speaker 13: you would be a F four. That's really mainly the 1415 01:05:59,520 --> 01:06:01,520 Speaker 13: only different So, I mean, we just have to work 1416 01:06:01,560 --> 01:06:03,800 Speaker 13: a little bit harder to put on that muscle. But 1417 01:06:04,080 --> 01:06:05,800 Speaker 13: that's a part of the game, isn't it. You want 1418 01:06:05,800 --> 01:06:07,840 Speaker 13: to be on that top one percent, whether you're the 1419 01:06:07,840 --> 01:06:11,120 Speaker 13: top one percent and females or males. So for me, 1420 01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:14,320 Speaker 13: it's more about maximizing that no matter the gender. 1421 01:06:15,480 --> 01:06:18,280 Speaker 2: Were you have you done your at Silverstone yet? 1422 01:06:18,520 --> 01:06:20,000 Speaker 13: No, that's tomorrow. 1423 01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:23,920 Speaker 2: How is that like beyond exciting or not? Really it is. 1424 01:06:24,160 --> 01:06:26,840 Speaker 13: I honestly, I cannot wait. I've been in the sim 1425 01:06:26,840 --> 01:06:31,280 Speaker 13: all day to day testing and I can't wait. I 1426 01:06:31,320 --> 01:06:33,960 Speaker 13: haven't been behind the wheel of a car since November 1427 01:06:34,040 --> 01:06:36,960 Speaker 13: last year. So just being back in a full motion 1428 01:06:37,120 --> 01:06:39,560 Speaker 13: sim again has brought a massive smile to my face 1429 01:06:39,600 --> 01:06:41,560 Speaker 13: and it's kind of, you know, made it more of 1430 01:06:41,560 --> 01:06:42,160 Speaker 13: a reality. 1431 01:06:42,240 --> 01:06:42,439 Speaker 18: Now. 1432 01:06:42,480 --> 01:06:45,600 Speaker 13: It's been a lot of behind the scenes work this 1433 01:06:45,680 --> 01:06:48,800 Speaker 13: year with networking and now to be back focused on 1434 01:06:48,920 --> 01:06:51,480 Speaker 13: actually racing as a dream come true. 1435 01:06:51,640 --> 01:06:53,920 Speaker 2: That's the thing I think most people don't understand about 1436 01:06:53,680 --> 01:06:56,760 Speaker 2: motor racing. Motor racing is actually not a lot of 1437 01:06:56,760 --> 01:06:59,760 Speaker 2: motor racing isn't. It's a lot of other stuff and 1438 01:06:59,840 --> 01:07:02,040 Speaker 2: just a little bit behind the wheel that must be 1439 01:07:02,120 --> 01:07:03,200 Speaker 2: at times frustrating. 1440 01:07:03,560 --> 01:07:06,400 Speaker 13: Exactly. Yeah for me. I mean, as I said, I 1441 01:07:06,440 --> 01:07:09,280 Speaker 13: haven't been in a cart since November and it's been 1442 01:07:09,320 --> 01:07:12,080 Speaker 13: about networking. It's been about getting my name out in 1443 01:07:12,080 --> 01:07:16,120 Speaker 13: the UK and Europe. It's social media. It's so important 1444 01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:18,480 Speaker 13: these days, even in racing. You know, you need to 1445 01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:20,800 Speaker 13: have followers for brands to want to work with you 1446 01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:24,760 Speaker 13: or companies to be able to take note. So for me, 1447 01:07:24,840 --> 01:07:26,760 Speaker 13: that's what this year has been about, and it's been 1448 01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:30,919 Speaker 13: adapting to that new lifestyle. But I just cannot wait 1449 01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:31,840 Speaker 13: to get back in the car. 1450 01:07:32,280 --> 01:07:35,120 Speaker 2: The full motion sim You mentioned the difference between that 1451 01:07:35,280 --> 01:07:37,720 Speaker 2: and something some people would have say in their garage. 1452 01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:38,960 Speaker 2: How different is it? 1453 01:07:38,960 --> 01:07:42,480 Speaker 13: It's crazy, it's you know, I was in a completely 1454 01:07:42,520 --> 01:07:46,480 Speaker 13: separate room with glass and people on laptops looking at 1455 01:07:46,480 --> 01:07:48,960 Speaker 13: my data and my video as I'm doing it live 1456 01:07:49,160 --> 01:07:53,320 Speaker 13: to a reference lap time, so they can completely see 1457 01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:56,000 Speaker 13: exactly what I'm doing. There's no line, there's no mistakes. 1458 01:07:56,000 --> 01:07:59,440 Speaker 13: If you make one, they see it, and you're literally 1459 01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:01,680 Speaker 13: up in the air kind of the cars going with 1460 01:08:01,720 --> 01:08:03,680 Speaker 13: you as you're turning, So it just makes it feel 1461 01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:06,880 Speaker 13: more realistic and what the actual thing is going to 1462 01:08:06,880 --> 01:08:08,800 Speaker 13: feel like for me on Thursday. 1463 01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:11,080 Speaker 2: So here's the interesting thing. So you go from cards 1464 01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:13,240 Speaker 2: to eighty six, is there as a jump You've never 1465 01:08:13,320 --> 01:08:15,920 Speaker 2: done single seaters before? What do you reckon? The difference 1466 01:08:15,960 --> 01:08:19,440 Speaker 2: between saying S and GT four and single seaters. 1467 01:08:19,160 --> 01:08:23,400 Speaker 13: Is between an A S and GTY four and single seaters. 1468 01:08:23,800 --> 01:08:30,120 Speaker 13: I think the difference of stiffness. The F four car 1469 01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:32,160 Speaker 13: is a lot stiffer than a GT four as in 1470 01:08:32,280 --> 01:08:34,519 Speaker 13: all the weight and a DUTY four asin is up high. 1471 01:08:34,960 --> 01:08:37,360 Speaker 13: We're pretty level to the axual in a single seater. 1472 01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:40,760 Speaker 13: So it's going to be about manipulating the car in 1473 01:08:40,840 --> 01:08:42,920 Speaker 13: a different way to get the weight to go forward 1474 01:08:42,920 --> 01:08:46,519 Speaker 13: and back. And that's what I've learned on this motion 1475 01:08:46,760 --> 01:08:50,200 Speaker 13: sim is kind of manipulating that in a short space 1476 01:08:50,240 --> 01:08:52,920 Speaker 13: of time. Also, the F four is a bit slower 1477 01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:55,080 Speaker 13: than the GT four, so it's about being able to 1478 01:08:55,080 --> 01:08:57,840 Speaker 13: get on power as quickly as I can out of 1479 01:08:57,880 --> 01:09:01,840 Speaker 13: the corner to maximize those long straights, especially around Silverstone GP. 1480 01:09:02,560 --> 01:09:04,479 Speaker 2: What do you reckon as you sit here talking to 1481 01:09:04,560 --> 01:09:07,040 Speaker 2: us this morning, what do you reckon? How far short 1482 01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:09,200 Speaker 2: are you of getting into the F one Academy in 1483 01:09:09,280 --> 01:09:11,679 Speaker 2: terms of speed and skill, I back myself. 1484 01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:17,120 Speaker 13: I think I can be there within a couple days. 1485 01:09:17,120 --> 01:09:19,559 Speaker 13: On track. I am really looking forward to being able 1486 01:09:19,600 --> 01:09:22,840 Speaker 13: to kind of prove my adaptability. Something that I've had 1487 01:09:22,880 --> 01:09:25,040 Speaker 13: to do my whole racing career because I haven't had 1488 01:09:25,080 --> 01:09:27,280 Speaker 13: much budget, is to go to a track I've never 1489 01:09:27,320 --> 01:09:29,919 Speaker 13: been to before. On the race we can and adapts 1490 01:09:29,920 --> 01:09:32,360 Speaker 13: to it as fast as possible. So I'm just going 1491 01:09:32,439 --> 01:09:35,080 Speaker 13: to be taking those learnings and doing the exact same 1492 01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:37,640 Speaker 13: thing with the car. You know, I love data, I 1493 01:09:37,720 --> 01:09:40,519 Speaker 13: love videos, so that's sort of a big strong point for me. 1494 01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:43,840 Speaker 13: I can spend hours looking at it, so that's where 1495 01:09:44,120 --> 01:09:45,679 Speaker 13: I kind of pull that game. 1496 01:09:45,560 --> 01:09:48,160 Speaker 2: Up with it fantastic. You got to if you haven't 1497 01:09:48,160 --> 01:09:50,840 Speaker 2: already seen it. There's a thing with Chris Harrison Max 1498 01:09:50,840 --> 01:09:53,160 Speaker 2: for Step and a video out at the moment he 1499 01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:55,760 Speaker 2: can go to a track, He's up to speed race 1500 01:09:55,800 --> 01:09:56,960 Speaker 2: speed within four laps. 1501 01:09:57,240 --> 01:09:58,799 Speaker 13: It's insane, honestly. 1502 01:09:59,040 --> 01:10:02,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, listen all the very best of luck. What 1503 01:10:02,280 --> 01:10:03,559 Speaker 2: have you got planned for the rest of the year 1504 01:10:03,560 --> 01:10:04,479 Speaker 2: beyond that you're busy? 1505 01:10:04,880 --> 01:10:07,160 Speaker 13: Yeah, to me, it's just about trying to find some 1506 01:10:07,240 --> 01:10:09,920 Speaker 13: more budget to get into the car, so I want 1507 01:10:09,920 --> 01:10:12,800 Speaker 13: to be testing as much as possible within the next month. 1508 01:10:13,160 --> 01:10:15,200 Speaker 13: If I do well at this sim test, I get 1509 01:10:15,240 --> 01:10:18,960 Speaker 13: to be high Tech's last seat at the F one 1510 01:10:19,240 --> 01:10:25,040 Speaker 13: Rookie Navara Test in September. So hopefully this goes well 1511 01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:27,320 Speaker 13: and then we get on track as much as we 1512 01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:28,919 Speaker 13: can before September eighteenth. 1513 01:10:29,360 --> 01:10:31,360 Speaker 2: Obviously, we wish you all the very best. Lovely to 1514 01:10:31,400 --> 01:10:33,160 Speaker 2: talk with you and maybe we'll catch up before the 1515 01:10:33,200 --> 01:10:33,760 Speaker 2: end of the year. 1516 01:10:33,960 --> 01:10:35,120 Speaker 13: Thank you so much. Mate. 1517 01:10:35,280 --> 01:10:39,240 Speaker 2: Rihanna o'meira hunt out of Stratford upon Avon this morning. 1518 01:10:39,280 --> 01:10:40,280 Speaker 2: So there's a name to watch. 1519 01:10:40,320 --> 01:10:45,479 Speaker 1: Eight twenty the Mike Hosking Breakfast with Rainthrowver News, Tom's Dead. 1520 01:10:45,280 --> 01:10:47,560 Speaker 2: B A little hits up Dafitil Day just around the 1521 01:10:47,600 --> 01:10:49,439 Speaker 2: corner of Friday August twenty nine, if you want to 1522 01:10:49,479 --> 01:10:51,600 Speaker 2: note that down Friday August twenty nine chants for us 1523 01:10:51,600 --> 01:10:54,200 Speaker 2: all to give some support.

So this is why 1525 01:10:56,240 --> 01:10:58,439 Speaker 2: A and Z have been a proud partner of the 1526 01:10:58,479 --> 01:11:01,040 Speaker 2: Cancer Society for I thirty five years. They stand with 1527 01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:03,920 Speaker 2: our community in supporting this important issue which is good, 1528 01:11:04,160 --> 01:11:07,280 Speaker 2: So Daffidil Day, your donation helps provide the vital care 1529 01:11:07,280 --> 01:11:09,960 Speaker 2: of the transport to treatment, the nurses, the accommodation, the counseling. 1530 01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:13,960 Speaker 2: It also supports prevention programs research helping to improve outcomes 1531 01:11:13,960 --> 01:11:16,920 Speaker 2: for future generations, which is critically important. Of course. So 1532 01:11:17,040 --> 01:11:20,000 Speaker 2: you wear yellow by a daffodil, show you support. But 1533 01:11:20,040 --> 01:11:21,720 Speaker 2: if you can go a step further, you can make 1534 01:11:21,720 --> 01:11:24,720 Speaker 2: a donation, because every daffodil, every dollar, every bit of 1535 01:11:24,840 --> 01:11:27,599 Speaker 2: kindness counts.

Intelligent, well spoken, clearly 1542 01:11:47,360 --> 01:11:50,439 Speaker 2: got a good education. Yes, indeed, probably got INTOEA. See 1543 01:11:50,439 --> 01:11:53,599 Speaker 2: it's all it's not all bad, Mike. She's on Instagram too. 1544 01:11:53,680 --> 01:11:56,479 Speaker 2: Everyone's on Insta, Mate, They're all on Insta. Don't you 1545 01:11:56,520 --> 01:11:58,400 Speaker 2: worry about that? Can I just remind you fully enough? 1546 01:11:58,439 --> 01:12:00,479 Speaker 2: I meant to mention it yesterday and I forgot my 1547 01:12:00,560 --> 01:12:04,880 Speaker 2: old mate Sean Sommerfield, who's into into cars, motorsport and stuff. 1548 01:12:04,880 --> 01:12:06,600 Speaker 2: And you might't remember him from Television three. Still on 1549 01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:08,400 Speaker 2: Television three he does a thing on the weekend's called 1550 01:12:08,439 --> 01:12:13,320 Speaker 2: CRC Motorsport. Anyway, there was a program called Kiwis Can 1551 01:12:13,400 --> 01:12:17,160 Speaker 2: Fly a while back, and then I saw the Kiwis 1552 01:12:17,160 --> 01:12:20,080 Speaker 2: Can Fly two on the weekend. And if you're into 1553 01:12:20,080 --> 01:12:22,240 Speaker 2: this sort of thing, this is not just about cars, 1554 01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:25,200 Speaker 2: it's about There's a company I'd never heard of called Dotson. 1555 01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:28,400 Speaker 2: There's a company race Tech, which if you're interracing, everyone's 1556 01:12:28,400 --> 01:12:30,840 Speaker 2: heard of race Tech, but it's a documentary about New 1557 01:12:30,960 --> 01:12:36,960 Speaker 2: Zealand companies who are just doing amazing things globally in 1558 01:12:37,000 --> 01:12:39,240 Speaker 2: the world of motorsport. It's not just here, it's all 1559 01:12:39,280 --> 01:12:41,680 Speaker 2: over the world. Dotson, for example, which I'd never heard of, 1560 01:12:42,439 --> 01:12:47,560 Speaker 2: they make twin clutch drives, so in other words, you 1561 01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:49,320 Speaker 2: know your paddleshift and stuff like that, if you had 1562 01:12:49,360 --> 01:12:51,680 Speaker 2: to get a BMWM three or whatever with a you know, 1563 01:12:51,720 --> 01:12:54,719 Speaker 2: bing bing bing bing bing the paddle ships those twin 1564 01:12:54,800 --> 01:12:57,920 Speaker 2: clutch drive systems. What they do is if you want 1565 01:12:57,920 --> 01:13:00,200 Speaker 2: to hot your car up and put two or three 1566 01:13:00,240 --> 01:13:03,920 Speaker 2: thousand horsepower into it. Then they make the sort of 1567 01:13:03,920 --> 01:13:05,679 Speaker 2: gear that will carry that load. 1568 01:13:05,920 --> 01:13:08,519 Speaker 5: How will that affect my fuel economy? 1569 01:13:08,720 --> 01:13:12,160 Speaker 2: Well, it will affect it immensely. You'll use tremendous amounts 1570 01:13:12,200 --> 01:13:14,679 Speaker 2: of it. But that's the joy of it. A lot 1571 01:13:14,680 --> 01:13:17,559 Speaker 2: of people Sam and this and GTRs who put these 1572 01:13:17,760 --> 01:13:20,240 Speaker 2: the dods and stuff in. But these these race tech 1573 01:13:20,280 --> 01:13:22,400 Speaker 2: I mean everyone you see a race tex set, you go, oh, 1574 01:13:22,439 --> 01:13:25,920 Speaker 2: those they're everywhere. They're like everyone who drives a race 1575 01:13:25,960 --> 01:13:28,200 Speaker 2: car drives a race anyway. It's a very good program. 1576 01:13:28,280 --> 01:13:30,519 Speaker 2: So so look that up as well, worth having a 1577 01:13:30,560 --> 01:13:33,679 Speaker 2: look at. Just before I finish boring you with motor racing, 1578 01:13:34,240 --> 01:13:36,680 Speaker 2: go if you can be bothered and you didn't see 1579 01:13:36,720 --> 01:13:39,160 Speaker 2: it at the time, go and watch Lewis Hamilton's interview 1580 01:13:39,160 --> 01:13:44,439 Speaker 2: post race yesterday. I've seen Lewis mope before. I've seen 1581 01:13:44,600 --> 01:13:48,000 Speaker 2: Lewis feel sorry for himself many a time. I've seen 1582 01:13:48,120 --> 01:13:50,960 Speaker 2: Lewis mumble and stumble his way through a post race 1583 01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:54,600 Speaker 2: scenario in which he has down on himself. How he 1584 01:13:54,640 --> 01:13:58,280 Speaker 2: thinks he's useless, How it's no one else's fault but him, 1585 01:13:58,400 --> 01:14:02,240 Speaker 2: et cetera, et cetera. But I have seen nothing like 1586 01:14:02,320 --> 01:14:05,559 Speaker 2: I saw yesterday, and if he leaves Ferrari before the 1587 01:14:05,680 --> 01:14:08,680 Speaker 2: end of the season, I will not be remotely surprised. 1588 01:14:09,720 --> 01:14:13,000 Speaker 2: For those with some longevity, you've seen something similar at Mercedes. 1589 01:14:13,080 --> 01:14:14,960 Speaker 2: But when you saw it at Mercedes, he was on 1590 01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:18,280 Speaker 2: the booge of leaving Mercedes. But yesterday, over the weekend, 1591 01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:20,200 Speaker 2: he made a couple of things that were really weren't 1592 01:14:20,200 --> 01:14:23,120 Speaker 2: all over the world. One he said, I'm useless. I'm useless, 1593 01:14:23,120 --> 01:14:25,200 Speaker 2: and we'll need to change drivers. Now that's you know, 1594 01:14:25,240 --> 01:14:27,519 Speaker 2: it's a bad day. He didn't have a good weekend. Unfortunately. 1595 01:14:27,640 --> 01:14:31,720 Speaker 2: Charlotte Claire, his cohort at Ferrari, had quite a good day, 1596 01:14:31,800 --> 01:14:33,280 Speaker 2: not as good as he wanted because he had poll 1597 01:14:33,360 --> 01:14:35,320 Speaker 2: and he came fourth in the end. But be that 1598 01:14:35,439 --> 01:14:38,439 Speaker 2: is it made. Lewis was nowhere near fourth. Anyway. He 1599 01:14:38,560 --> 01:14:41,280 Speaker 2: said something, he said things aren't good in the background 1600 01:14:41,320 --> 01:14:44,800 Speaker 2: at the moment, and that led everyone to go, this 1601 01:14:44,840 --> 01:14:47,760 Speaker 2: hasn't gone well, and so if Lewis is not. 1602 01:14:47,920 --> 01:14:50,000 Speaker 3: He's probably just talking about the voices in his head 1603 01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:50,240 Speaker 3: with it. 1604 01:14:51,120 --> 01:14:54,080 Speaker 2: But thank god for the summer break. He's got three 1605 01:14:54,080 --> 01:14:56,240 Speaker 2: weeks to sort his head out. But that is not 1606 01:14:56,560 --> 01:14:58,759 Speaker 2: a winning strategy for the second part of the season. 1607 01:14:58,760 --> 01:15:00,760 Speaker 2: I can tell you that for nothing News for you 1608 01:15:01,040 --> 01:15:04,240 Speaker 2: is next Hie Paul from Avy World. 1609 01:15:04,560 --> 01:15:09,200 Speaker 1: News, Opinion and everything in between, the Mic Hofting Breakfast 1610 01:15:09,400 --> 01:15:13,880 Speaker 1: with Bailey's real estate altogether better across residential, commercial and 1611 01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:14,920 Speaker 1: rural news talks. 1612 01:15:14,920 --> 01:15:17,120 Speaker 2: Head be worried about our wine. How'll come back to 1613 01:15:17,160 --> 01:15:19,639 Speaker 2: that in a moment. Interesting new numbers anyway, Speaking of numbers, 1614 01:15:19,680 --> 01:15:22,439 Speaker 2: doctors senior so pretty much as well as far as 1615 01:15:22,479 --> 01:15:24,000 Speaker 2: I can work out, I don't know how closely you 1616 01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:25,599 Speaker 2: follow the stuff, but pretty much everyone in the health 1617 01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:27,559 Speaker 2: sector doesn't like being in the health sector at the moment. 1618 01:15:27,640 --> 01:15:30,160 Speaker 2: So the nurses were on strike. The other day midwives 1619 01:15:30,160 --> 01:15:32,000 Speaker 2: cut a deal, so that was encouraging. So fairly good 1620 01:15:32,040 --> 01:15:34,000 Speaker 2: numbers around the midwives salary as far as I could 1621 01:15:34,040 --> 01:15:36,960 Speaker 2: work out. Senior doctors who are also a bit angsty, 1622 01:15:37,360 --> 01:15:40,000 Speaker 2: they've been offered. Let me just toss these numbers at 1623 01:15:40,000 --> 01:15:42,760 Speaker 2: you and see what you think. So the offer from 1624 01:15:42,760 --> 01:15:46,000 Speaker 2: Health New Zealand is a first year specialist would receive 1625 01:15:46,040 --> 01:15:48,400 Speaker 2: a seventeen thousand, seven hundred dollars pay increase, which is 1626 01:15:48,439 --> 01:15:51,120 Speaker 2: nine and a half percent. A second year specialist would 1627 01:15:51,120 --> 01:15:53,000 Speaker 2: get eleven thousand, eight hundred, which is a six point 1628 01:15:53,040 --> 01:15:56,360 Speaker 2: two percent increase. Specialists would also receive a further one 1629 01:15:56,400 --> 01:15:58,719 Speaker 2: point five percent over the course of the proposed settlement, 1630 01:15:58,800 --> 01:16:01,800 Speaker 2: and specialists on step four or above would get between 1631 01:16:01,840 --> 01:16:03,720 Speaker 2: three point five and three point eight percent applied over 1632 01:16:03,720 --> 01:16:05,400 Speaker 2: a twenty one month period. Does that sound as in 1633 01:16:05,479 --> 01:16:06,160 Speaker 2: percent dig you know? 1634 01:16:06,240 --> 01:16:06,439 Speaker 13: You go? 1635 01:16:06,479 --> 01:16:07,719 Speaker 2: Oh are you going to meet the cost of living 1636 01:16:07,720 --> 01:16:09,040 Speaker 2: and all that? I mean, I know the cost of 1637 01:16:09,080 --> 01:16:11,200 Speaker 2: living and the insurance and the rights and stuff is bad, 1638 01:16:12,080 --> 01:16:14,160 Speaker 2: but it's not six point two or nine point five 1639 01:16:14,160 --> 01:16:16,600 Speaker 2: percent bad as it seems like a reasonable deal to me. 1640 01:16:16,640 --> 01:16:19,840 Speaker 2: And they claim the union's claim it amounts to a 1641 01:16:19,880 --> 01:16:22,040 Speaker 2: pay cut. How do they argue that twenty two. 1642 01:16:22,000 --> 01:16:26,479 Speaker 1: To nine international correspondence with Insite Eye Insurance Peace of 1643 01:16:26,520 --> 01:16:28,320 Speaker 1: Mind for New Zealand business ride. 1644 01:16:28,200 --> 01:16:30,160 Speaker 2: Hid in the UK? We go Roderick, very good morning 1645 01:16:30,160 --> 01:16:32,519 Speaker 2: to you, my friend, Come on in, Mike, our old 1646 01:16:32,520 --> 01:16:34,439 Speaker 2: mate Tommy. What have they got on for this time? 1647 01:16:35,280 --> 01:16:40,719 Speaker 7: GB eight or a lettered TB eight assault. What happened 1648 01:16:40,840 --> 01:16:44,679 Speaker 7: was that this ID say, if your audience is familiar 1649 01:16:44,680 --> 01:16:47,160 Speaker 7: with the name Tommy Robinson viye, now given that he 1650 01:16:47,240 --> 01:16:50,320 Speaker 7: is he's the kind of right wing I kind of 1651 01:16:50,320 --> 01:16:56,439 Speaker 7: of protest and activism and very very much disdained by 1652 01:16:56,439 --> 01:17:02,960 Speaker 7: everybody else. He was actually seeing on coast circuit television 1653 01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:07,400 Speaker 7: walking away from a man who'd clearly been hit. The 1654 01:17:07,479 --> 01:17:11,280 Speaker 7: question is whether Tommy Robinson hit him. He flew straight 1655 01:17:11,320 --> 01:17:14,080 Speaker 7: off to Portugal and the police arrested him on his 1656 01:17:14,160 --> 01:17:18,120 Speaker 7: way back from Pharaoh. It'll be interesting to see if 1657 01:17:18,120 --> 01:17:23,360 Speaker 7: he gets a fair trial, because hitherto he hasn't been 1658 01:17:23,400 --> 01:17:27,479 Speaker 7: given a fair trial. Now you might argue, fair enough, 1659 01:17:27,479 --> 01:17:32,080 Speaker 7: he's an awful man, but the way he's been treated 1660 01:17:32,080 --> 01:17:35,720 Speaker 7: by the law courts in the past has inflamed the 1661 01:17:35,840 --> 01:17:39,519 Speaker 7: views of the far right, and they feel they've got 1662 01:17:39,560 --> 01:17:43,519 Speaker 7: a point. You know that there is a conspiracy against them. 1663 01:17:43,880 --> 01:17:46,959 Speaker 7: Always treat these people the way you treat anyone else. 1664 01:17:46,880 --> 01:17:49,799 Speaker 2: All right, now, farage So he wants the immigration status 1665 01:17:49,840 --> 01:17:53,200 Speaker 2: of people who are arrested. I'm watching yet again, Rod 1666 01:17:53,240 --> 01:17:56,200 Speaker 2: another summer of if, honestly, if I was in government, 1667 01:17:56,920 --> 01:18:00,240 Speaker 2: would I promise to stop the boats? Knowing sure in 1668 01:18:00,280 --> 01:18:02,800 Speaker 2: my heart of hearts I didn't stand a hopenhill. 1669 01:18:03,640 --> 01:18:06,400 Speaker 7: Well yeah you might if you actually did it. I 1670 01:18:06,400 --> 01:18:13,080 Speaker 7: think Germany has cut its its refugee asylum seekers numbers 1671 01:18:13,080 --> 01:18:16,960 Speaker 7: by fifty percent. America has cut its asylum seeker numbers, 1672 01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:20,400 Speaker 7: you know, people coming over from Mexico, primarily by someone 1673 01:18:20,479 --> 01:18:23,960 Speaker 7: the origin of eighty percent. It can be done, but 1674 01:18:24,320 --> 01:18:28,640 Speaker 7: it needs it needs a degree of action and severity 1675 01:18:29,040 --> 01:18:31,600 Speaker 7: which the Labor government, and in fairness before it the 1676 01:18:31,640 --> 01:18:35,960 Speaker 7: Conservative government simply wasn't prepared to adopt. You can do it, 1677 01:18:36,040 --> 01:18:41,439 Speaker 7: I think you know. One answer was the Rwanda answer, 1678 01:18:41,439 --> 01:18:45,360 Speaker 7: which is to send all the asylum seekers to Ruwanda. 1679 01:18:45,720 --> 01:18:48,799 Speaker 7: What should certainly be done and has never been done, 1680 01:18:49,320 --> 01:18:51,719 Speaker 7: is to say to all of them, if you attempt 1681 01:18:51,760 --> 01:18:55,640 Speaker 7: to enter this country illegally, the de facto will not 1682 01:18:55,760 --> 01:18:59,200 Speaker 7: be given asylum. And that seems to me to be 1683 01:18:59,479 --> 01:19:02,360 Speaker 7: the most root out of all of this. It would 1684 01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:05,920 Speaker 7: be a deterrent. But anyway, for ours wants for ours 1685 01:19:05,960 --> 01:19:12,000 Speaker 7: wants police to release the immigration status of the criminals 1686 01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:15,439 Speaker 7: who are arrested for serious crimes. And this is based 1687 01:19:15,479 --> 01:19:18,360 Speaker 7: around one in Warwickshire in which it's suspected that the 1688 01:19:18,560 --> 01:19:22,040 Speaker 7: people who sexually assaulted a twelve year old girl were 1689 01:19:22,040 --> 01:19:24,759 Speaker 7: Afghans Flores. 1690 01:19:24,960 --> 01:19:27,160 Speaker 2: Has it been through going through as we speak? 1691 01:19:27,200 --> 01:19:28,200 Speaker 1: It am all right. 1692 01:19:28,200 --> 01:19:30,400 Speaker 2: It seems to be the north of Scotland. 1693 01:19:30,520 --> 01:19:35,120 Speaker 7: It's where I am. That's why I mention it. You see, 1694 01:19:35,240 --> 01:19:37,760 Speaker 7: if you were talking to some bloke in London, he 1695 01:19:37,840 --> 01:19:41,320 Speaker 7: wouldn't even know that florists existed. But up here, I'm 1696 01:19:41,320 --> 01:19:44,320 Speaker 7: telling you the trees are down. You can't get out 1697 01:19:44,360 --> 01:19:48,720 Speaker 7: your drive because of all the debris. But no one 1698 01:19:49,040 --> 01:19:51,479 Speaker 7: south of what will notice for a second. 1699 01:19:51,960 --> 01:19:54,320 Speaker 2: And what's it like in the middle of summer with 1700 01:19:54,400 --> 01:19:54,759 Speaker 2: a storm. 1701 01:19:54,760 --> 01:19:55,320 Speaker 3: What have you got? 1702 01:19:55,320 --> 01:19:57,120 Speaker 2: Warm temperatures but big wind. 1703 01:19:57,600 --> 01:20:01,599 Speaker 7: Yeah, that's exactly it. Warm temperatures, big with occasional very 1704 01:20:01,720 --> 01:20:06,080 Speaker 7: gusty showers. But it has been seasonably warm. It's been 1705 01:20:06,240 --> 01:20:10,479 Speaker 7: nice weather here. We're having a good summer, but these 1706 01:20:10,600 --> 01:20:13,760 Speaker 7: storms come. And you know, August in Fairness is known 1707 01:20:13,800 --> 01:20:16,840 Speaker 7: for storms that I dare say. The BBC will be 1708 01:20:16,840 --> 01:20:20,519 Speaker 7: telling us it's all climate change, but I remember being 1709 01:20:20,600 --> 01:20:22,360 Speaker 7: August storms back when I was a kid. 1710 01:20:22,520 --> 01:20:24,880 Speaker 2: Exactly, Hey, listen, just while I've got you and quickly 1711 01:20:25,400 --> 01:20:28,320 Speaker 2: this I find hard to believe. So the government will 1712 01:20:28,360 --> 01:20:33,000 Speaker 2: restrict civil service internships to students from poorer families and 1713 01:20:33,040 --> 01:20:35,519 Speaker 2: they want to make Whitehall more working class. This is 1714 01:20:35,600 --> 01:20:38,640 Speaker 2: driven by somebody called mcfed and pat Chancellor of the 1715 01:20:38,720 --> 01:20:43,360 Speaker 2: Duchy of Lancaster. And you were judged by what your 1716 01:20:43,520 --> 01:20:47,840 Speaker 2: parents were ruining and doing when you were fourteen. How 1717 01:20:48,680 --> 01:20:49,760 Speaker 2: mental is this? 1718 01:20:51,680 --> 01:20:56,120 Speaker 7: Well, well, okay, let me be devil's advocate for a second. 1719 01:20:56,560 --> 01:21:01,720 Speaker 7: It is unquestionably the case the civil service is of 1720 01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:07,000 Speaker 7: a single view politically into monoculture, and they are largely 1721 01:21:07,280 --> 01:21:11,280 Speaker 7: they are almost entirely middle class people who've been to 1722 01:21:11,320 --> 01:21:16,640 Speaker 7: Oxford got a ppe and a very pro remain in 1723 01:21:16,720 --> 01:21:21,160 Speaker 7: the EU, very pro assylum secrets, etcetera, etcetera. So they're 1724 01:21:21,160 --> 01:21:25,200 Speaker 7: out of step with the majority of opinion. And I 1725 01:21:25,240 --> 01:21:27,320 Speaker 7: don't know that this is Labour's way of doing something 1726 01:21:27,320 --> 01:21:29,840 Speaker 7: about it. It wants to enfranchise the working class a 1727 01:21:29,840 --> 01:21:33,040 Speaker 7: bit poor, but I don't know how you can accurately 1728 01:21:33,080 --> 01:21:36,960 Speaker 7: tell who's working class and who isn't. And I suspect 1729 01:21:37,040 --> 01:21:44,400 Speaker 7: that this will simply be a brief spurt of DEI yeah, 1730 01:21:44,439 --> 01:21:46,840 Speaker 7: I suspect it's just a quick verse of that and 1731 01:21:46,880 --> 01:21:49,120 Speaker 7: then we'll hear no more about it. It seems to 1732 01:21:49,160 --> 01:21:50,920 Speaker 7: me an absurdity. 1733 01:21:50,479 --> 01:21:53,639 Speaker 2: Right, Rod Gowell, we'll see you Thursday, Rod Little and Britain, 1734 01:21:53,880 --> 01:21:56,200 Speaker 2: by the way, other matters they plan to evacuate more 1735 01:21:56,240 --> 01:22:01,559 Speaker 2: seriously ill children injured in Gaza. It's how many. They 1736 01:22:01,560 --> 01:22:03,519 Speaker 2: will allow up to three hundred to enter the UK 1737 01:22:03,600 --> 01:22:05,880 Speaker 2: to receive free medical care. Some have been brought in 1738 01:22:05,920 --> 01:22:08,960 Speaker 2: privately so far, but the government's going to get involved 1739 01:22:09,040 --> 01:22:13,559 Speaker 2: via metrics next time. In your europe entry exit system, 1740 01:22:13,600 --> 01:22:17,040 Speaker 2: the ees will replace the current paper checks, which means 1741 01:22:17,040 --> 01:22:20,080 Speaker 2: they're going to go biometrics in the European Union. And 1742 01:22:20,200 --> 01:22:24,280 Speaker 2: the population Just for funzis England. Wales's Population's gone up 1743 01:22:24,479 --> 01:22:27,639 Speaker 2: up one point two percent. They've gained seven hundred six thousand, 1744 01:22:27,640 --> 01:22:29,599 Speaker 2: eight hundred and eighty one people. The population now officially 1745 01:22:29,640 --> 01:22:33,640 Speaker 2: sits at sixty one million, eight hundred thousand, sixteen to 1746 01:22:33,680 --> 01:22:36,920 Speaker 2: wait nine. 1747 01:22:36,040 --> 01:22:39,400 Speaker 1: The like asking Breakfast Fall show podcast on I have 1748 01:22:39,640 --> 01:22:43,080 Speaker 1: radio powered by news talks that be Mike. 1749 01:22:43,120 --> 01:22:45,000 Speaker 2: In the last three months, I've had eleven percent house 1750 01:22:45,040 --> 01:22:48,200 Speaker 2: insurance increase, twenty two percent increase of medical insurance and 1751 01:22:48,200 --> 01:22:51,080 Speaker 2: twenty six percent rates increase, which I'm not sure how 1752 01:22:51,080 --> 01:22:53,560 Speaker 2: this is sustainable. When you say twenty six in Auckland, 1753 01:22:53,760 --> 01:22:56,000 Speaker 2: I don't know what you're basing that on because that's 1754 01:22:56,040 --> 01:22:58,240 Speaker 2: not the number. It varies depending on who you are 1755 01:22:58,320 --> 01:23:00,760 Speaker 2: where you are, what you got, et cetera. But I mean, 1756 01:23:00,800 --> 01:23:03,040 Speaker 2: I take your point, and I think the first thing 1757 01:23:03,080 --> 01:23:04,640 Speaker 2: to go? What would be the first thing to go? 1758 01:23:04,720 --> 01:23:07,080 Speaker 2: You say, I don't know how it's sustainable. For some 1759 01:23:07,160 --> 01:23:09,080 Speaker 2: people it won't be. So what's first to go? Would 1760 01:23:09,120 --> 01:23:12,040 Speaker 2: you dump house insurance first before you dump medical insurance 1761 01:23:12,040 --> 01:23:14,360 Speaker 2: all the other way around, because you've got no choice 1762 01:23:14,360 --> 01:23:16,240 Speaker 2: on rates. Of course, you've got no choice on power. 1763 01:23:16,280 --> 01:23:18,720 Speaker 2: You got no choice on gas, but you do have 1764 01:23:18,760 --> 01:23:22,639 Speaker 2: a choice on home insurance and contents insurance, and power 1765 01:23:22,640 --> 01:23:26,200 Speaker 2: insurance and medical insurance. Now, this wine grows thing worries 1766 01:23:26,240 --> 01:23:29,519 Speaker 2: me to a degree. So a lot of rotten grapes 1767 01:23:29,560 --> 01:23:32,240 Speaker 2: go into the ground as global demand goes down. So 1768 01:23:32,280 --> 01:23:35,280 Speaker 2: the twenty five harvest, which was when do you pick 1769 01:23:35,320 --> 01:23:37,639 Speaker 2: your grapes? March April, something like that, maybe into May. 1770 01:23:38,360 --> 01:23:40,360 Speaker 2: So this year's harvest, in other words, five hundred and 1771 01:23:40,400 --> 01:23:43,760 Speaker 2: nineteen thousand tons, which is the second largest normally quite good, 1772 01:23:43,800 --> 01:23:46,360 Speaker 2: good news to have a lot. What I'm into is quality, 1773 01:23:46,439 --> 01:23:48,320 Speaker 2: not quantity, but be that as it may. Seventy five 1774 01:23:48,320 --> 01:23:51,600 Speaker 2: to one hundred thousand tons, though is remained unharvested. So 1775 01:23:51,640 --> 01:23:54,000 Speaker 2: if you're taking five thousand, one hundred, so it's twenty 1776 01:23:54,040 --> 01:23:56,680 Speaker 2: percent never got off the tree or the plant or 1777 01:23:56,680 --> 01:23:59,400 Speaker 2: the vine. Companies picked what they were required to pick 1778 01:23:59,439 --> 01:24:01,800 Speaker 2: and they left the rest behind. Domestic storage is close 1779 01:24:01,840 --> 01:24:05,439 Speaker 2: to capacity, There is falling global demand. Infantories are serving 1780 01:24:05,479 --> 01:24:08,920 Speaker 2: you on blanc are at ten year highs Marlborough, Fifteen 1781 01:24:08,960 --> 01:24:11,680 Speaker 2: to twenty percent of the tonnage was unharvested. Now let 1782 01:24:11,680 --> 01:24:14,519 Speaker 2: me ask you a couple of questions around that. By 1783 01:24:14,560 --> 01:24:17,360 Speaker 2: the way, serving on blanc growers got eighteen hundred to 1784 01:24:17,439 --> 01:24:19,960 Speaker 2: eighteen fifty a ton, which is down from twenty one 1785 01:24:19,960 --> 01:24:21,800 Speaker 2: to fifty a ton last year twenty four hundred a 1786 01:24:21,880 --> 01:24:24,080 Speaker 2: ton twenty three, So the price is are back at 1787 01:24:24,080 --> 01:24:26,760 Speaker 2: twenty eighteen twenty nineteen level. So here's my question for you. 1788 01:24:26,840 --> 01:24:30,160 Speaker 2: One is serving you on blanc at last becoming an issue? So, 1789 01:24:30,200 --> 01:24:33,240 Speaker 2: in other words, the golden Runners over two. We know 1790 01:24:33,400 --> 01:24:35,240 Speaker 2: for a fact, and there's nothing we can do about it. 1791 01:24:35,280 --> 01:24:37,599 Speaker 2: We know for a fact that global consumption of alcohol 1792 01:24:37,680 --> 01:24:42,200 Speaker 2: is dropping. It's moving away perhaps from wine to things 1793 01:24:42,280 --> 01:24:45,479 Speaker 2: like spirits, but it's also overall dropping, so there's not 1794 01:24:45,520 --> 01:24:48,360 Speaker 2: a lot you can do about that. I also wonder 1795 01:24:48,400 --> 01:24:50,400 Speaker 2: and ask you this question are there are too many 1796 01:24:50,400 --> 01:24:53,840 Speaker 2: contract growers in this country who aren't actually making wine. 1797 01:24:53,880 --> 01:24:55,600 Speaker 2: In other words, you're just a grape grower and you 1798 01:24:55,680 --> 01:24:57,479 Speaker 2: never see a corcus crew cap or a bottle. You 1799 01:24:57,479 --> 01:24:58,960 Speaker 2: don't do anything with that. You just wait for a 1800 01:24:59,000 --> 01:25:00,720 Speaker 2: truck to turn up and throw your grapes your one. 1801 01:25:00,760 --> 01:25:03,040 Speaker 2: They'll end up somewhere else. And I wonder if there's 1802 01:25:03,080 --> 01:25:05,040 Speaker 2: too much of that. We should follow that up and 1803 01:25:05,040 --> 01:25:07,280 Speaker 2: look into that on the program, possibly tomorrow will the 1804 01:25:07,320 --> 01:25:11,200 Speaker 2: next day, there's an idea for your semi never stop whiteboarding. 1805 01:25:11,320 --> 01:25:12,720 Speaker 2: Ten away from nine. 1806 01:25:12,920 --> 01:25:16,679 Speaker 1: The Mic Hosking break best with Bailey's real estate news Dogs. 1807 01:25:16,680 --> 01:25:18,640 Speaker 2: There'd be Mike one might be done. But people are 1808 01:25:18,640 --> 01:25:21,519 Speaker 2: buying twenty dollars cocktails. How do cocktails get so expensive? 1809 01:25:21,520 --> 01:25:21,840 Speaker 3: Brett? 1810 01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:24,320 Speaker 2: They've been expensive for a long period of time. I 1811 01:25:24,360 --> 01:25:25,840 Speaker 2: was watching. You know you can go to a flash 1812 01:25:25,880 --> 01:25:27,880 Speaker 2: hotel in London. At the moment you're paying a minimum 1813 01:25:27,920 --> 01:25:32,320 Speaker 2: twenty six and generally twenty eight pounds pounds for a 1814 01:25:32,360 --> 01:25:34,840 Speaker 2: standard cocktail in a hotel in London. So do the 1815 01:25:34,840 --> 01:25:36,840 Speaker 2: math on that. You're talking sixty plus dollars. 1816 01:25:36,960 --> 01:25:38,759 Speaker 1: I always remember when you used to go to raffles. 1817 01:25:38,800 --> 01:25:41,599 Speaker 3: If you're in Singapore and you gave a Singapore sling. 1818 01:25:41,800 --> 01:25:44,400 Speaker 2: Well you still can while standing on the peanut shells, 1819 01:25:44,439 --> 01:25:45,000 Speaker 2: you still can. 1820 01:25:45,200 --> 01:25:47,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, But and that ways used to be 1821 01:25:47,160 --> 01:25:47,920 Speaker 3: really expensive. 1822 01:25:48,520 --> 01:25:51,160 Speaker 11: And then once cocktails started getting really expensive here, I thought, 1823 01:25:51,240 --> 01:25:52,879 Speaker 11: isn't this course just like being in Singapore? 1824 01:25:59,240 --> 01:26:02,800 Speaker 2: Good logic, Mike. My house values unchanged, but the rates 1825 01:26:02,840 --> 01:26:05,800 Speaker 2: went up sixteen percent. So there's some big increases out there, David, 1826 01:26:05,800 --> 01:26:09,320 Speaker 2: there are. And that's been the big MythBuster that suddenly 1827 01:26:09,560 --> 01:26:11,880 Speaker 2: that your rates were connected to your house. They only 1828 01:26:11,880 --> 01:26:14,600 Speaker 2: told you that until it became inconvenient. When it became inconvenient, 1829 01:26:14,600 --> 01:26:15,360 Speaker 2: they just charged you. 1830 01:26:15,400 --> 01:26:15,799 Speaker 3: Anyway. 1831 01:26:16,560 --> 01:26:18,920 Speaker 2: We canceled our life insurance, Mike, however, we put the 1832 01:26:18,920 --> 01:26:21,439 Speaker 2: payments that we were going to put into another bank account. 1833 01:26:21,439 --> 01:26:23,479 Speaker 2: Will never cancel the medical. It's a funny thing that 1834 01:26:24,040 --> 01:26:25,839 Speaker 2: you're the first person I've heard about the life insurance. 1835 01:26:25,880 --> 01:26:27,559 Speaker 2: I mean, that's just savings, isn't it. I mean, really, 1836 01:26:27,640 --> 01:26:29,680 Speaker 2: at the end of the day, whereas medical, I know 1837 01:26:29,760 --> 01:26:32,320 Speaker 2: a lot of people who've canceled medical and put the 1838 01:26:32,360 --> 01:26:35,760 Speaker 2: money into the account so to years it specifically when 1839 01:26:35,800 --> 01:26:39,120 Speaker 2: and if they ever need some sort of medical assistance. 1840 01:26:39,920 --> 01:26:45,559 Speaker 2: Regarding sav look up twenty eight to twenty oh nine 1841 01:26:45,560 --> 01:26:47,360 Speaker 2: harvest period with a great price went from twenty four 1842 01:26:47,439 --> 01:26:49,920 Speaker 2: hundred to ton to twelve hundred and one year, then 1843 01:26:49,960 --> 01:26:52,280 Speaker 2: took about a decade to build back up again. Similar 1844 01:26:52,320 --> 01:26:55,400 Speaker 2: issues with massive over supply and wine companies now selling 1845 01:26:55,880 --> 01:26:59,080 Speaker 2: particularly just twenty twenty four at cost. Yeah, but that's 1846 01:26:59,120 --> 01:27:01,960 Speaker 2: demand based though at the end of the day, the demand. 1847 01:27:02,040 --> 01:27:05,760 Speaker 2: I've just always argued and had been consistently wrong, that 1848 01:27:05,880 --> 01:27:10,519 Speaker 2: the golden age of serving your blanc has to come 1849 01:27:10,520 --> 01:27:12,599 Speaker 2: to an end, particularly in Britain, and maybe it's now. 1850 01:27:12,640 --> 01:27:15,240 Speaker 2: Mike fifty seven at Raffles last time? Was there fifty 1851 01:27:15,240 --> 01:27:16,080 Speaker 2: seven for at Singapore? 1852 01:27:16,120 --> 01:27:16,320 Speaker 13: Slain? 1853 01:27:17,200 --> 01:27:19,040 Speaker 2: It depends on that singer last night. I looked at 1854 01:27:19,040 --> 01:27:20,640 Speaker 2: the dollar the other day. Funny enough, when I was 1855 01:27:20,680 --> 01:27:24,240 Speaker 2: last in Singapore, the Singapore dollars about ninety ish ninety cents. 1856 01:27:24,400 --> 01:27:27,000 Speaker 2: It's now it's seventy. It's just like there's nothing you 1857 01:27:27,040 --> 01:27:29,120 Speaker 2: can take, you can buy it. You can go with 1858 01:27:29,200 --> 01:27:32,160 Speaker 2: your New Zealand dollar short of Fiji. I think short 1859 01:27:32,200 --> 01:27:34,200 Speaker 2: of a New Fiji, you can take you a New 1860 01:27:34,320 --> 01:27:37,679 Speaker 2: Zealand dollar into the world and buy yourself pretty much 1861 01:27:38,080 --> 01:27:41,400 Speaker 2: nothing it's pathetic. Five minutes away from nine. 1862 01:27:41,640 --> 01:27:47,000 Speaker 1: Trending now with chemist where house great savings every day. 1863 01:27:47,000 --> 01:27:49,240 Speaker 2: As it turns out, and talking with Rihanna earlier on 1864 01:27:49,280 --> 01:27:50,840 Speaker 2: in the racing and all that sort of stuff. I've 1865 01:27:50,840 --> 01:27:52,320 Speaker 2: got a little something for you have to listen to this. 1866 01:28:03,200 --> 01:28:09,760 Speaker 2: Let's smooth. We should play a game. We should play 1867 01:28:09,800 --> 01:28:13,080 Speaker 2: a game. And I saw it somewhere many years ago. 1868 01:28:13,120 --> 01:28:15,800 Speaker 2: There was a guy who was on top Gear and 1869 01:28:15,880 --> 01:28:18,160 Speaker 2: he came on as a guest and they played him 1870 01:28:18,200 --> 01:28:22,080 Speaker 2: doors shutting of cars and he could name the car. 1871 01:28:22,560 --> 01:28:24,439 Speaker 2: He could go, that's such a So we should play 1872 01:28:24,479 --> 01:28:26,679 Speaker 2: the game with engines.
