I thought it was nineteen kilo. Different, I 63 00:02:56,453 --> 00:02:57,253 Speaker 4: was seventy five. 64 00:02:58,093 --> 00:03:02,613 Speaker 3: Weekly I am pretty buff. I'm not ninety four. I'm 65 00:03:02,693 --> 00:03:05,173 Speaker 3: ninety two. I think I I'm thinking around ninety two. 66 00:03:05,373 --> 00:03:07,173 Speaker 3: I was finally asking if it was ninety two or 67 00:03:07,213 --> 00:03:08,053 Speaker 3: ninety two point five? 68 00:03:08,173 --> 00:03:10,412 Speaker 4: No, four, This is all above balling. You know, we're 69 00:03:10,413 --> 00:03:13,132 Speaker 4: going to do the numbers are out there. I thought 70 00:03:13,173 --> 00:03:14,693 Speaker 4: I hit them in my head. Turns out I might 71 00:03:14,733 --> 00:03:16,053 Speaker 4: be a little bit off, but we're gonna have the 72 00:03:16,093 --> 00:03:16,692 Speaker 4: final way and. 73 00:03:16,653 --> 00:03:19,532 Speaker 3: Actually, hang on a minute, I'm happy to take ninety four. Yeah, yeah, 74 00:03:19,532 --> 00:03:22,133 Speaker 3: because then I can possibly win. But no, the truth 75 00:03:22,213 --> 00:03:23,933 Speaker 3: is important. So we'll get to the beget a bottom 76 00:03:23,933 --> 00:03:26,093 Speaker 3: that we'll do that way on because that's an important 77 00:03:26,133 --> 00:03:27,733 Speaker 3: question that needs to be answered. Is it possible. 78 00:03:27,813 --> 00:03:29,293 Speaker 4: It's a massive hypothesis, to be. 79 00:03:29,213 --> 00:03:31,613 Speaker 3: Fair, I put no effort into pulling that off. I 80 00:03:31,853 --> 00:03:33,972 Speaker 3: I was about to on Christmas Day. I was thinking, 81 00:03:33,972 --> 00:03:35,853 Speaker 3: maybe I'll think about that, and then I thought, no, No, 82 00:03:35,933 --> 00:03:37,973 Speaker 3: it's disrespectful not to eat myself. 83 00:03:37,653 --> 00:03:39,933 Speaker 4: To long as you're going for your fourth helping. Yeah, 84 00:03:39,973 --> 00:03:41,573 Speaker 4: I've got to say I kind of panicked, and this 85 00:03:41,813 --> 00:03:43,573 Speaker 4: just this last week when I realized we've got to 86 00:03:43,613 --> 00:03:44,893 Speaker 4: do the way, and I've tried to get out to 87 00:03:44,893 --> 00:03:46,813 Speaker 4: do some runs in the morning just to try and 88 00:03:46,813 --> 00:03:49,133 Speaker 4: burn off as many grams as I have.

That's Santa Monica by Everclear, and 95 00:04:15,373 --> 00:04:18,452 Speaker 3: those lyrics are very poignant considering the fires that have 96 00:04:18,853 --> 00:04:22,853 Speaker 3: recently ravaged the area.

It's kicked off in Karca Point, that's down 121 00:05:42,533 --> 00:05:45,133 Speaker 4: in the bottom of the South Islands. So there was 122 00:05:45,173 --> 00:05:48,373 Speaker 4: an advert and one of the papers down there encouraging 123 00:05:48,413 --> 00:05:50,693 Speaker 4: people to come along for a bit of a nudy walk. 124 00:05:51,093 --> 00:05:53,813 Speaker 4: There are a lots of the residents in that part 125 00:05:53,933 --> 00:05:56,493 Speaker 4: of New Zealand to a brick but upset about seeing 126 00:05:56,573 --> 00:05:58,973 Speaker 4: nudy people walking along the lights of Krca Point and 127 00:05:58,973 --> 00:06:02,733 Speaker 4: in the Catlands and other parts of Southland. But the 128 00:06:02,853 --> 00:06:05,053 Speaker 4: question we'll put out there is why do we get 129 00:06:05,173 --> 00:06:06,693 Speaker 4: so irate about. 130 00:06:07,173 --> 00:06:11,293 Speaker 3: What are the people of Kaka problem with the beautiful 131 00:06:11,573 --> 00:06:13,493 Speaker 3: form of God's creation, the human body. 132 00:06:13,733 --> 00:06:17,453 Speaker 4: Well, let me just find a direct quote from one 133 00:06:17,493 --> 00:06:23,773 Speaker 4: of these irate community members. At the end of the day, 134 00:06:24,013 --> 00:06:25,893 Speaker 4: Oh no, this is actually from the nudist community, so 135 00:06:25,973 --> 00:06:28,213 Speaker 4: they're very positive. At the end of the day. The 136 00:06:28,413 --> 00:06:30,452 Speaker 4: nudist said, we're not going to please everybody. Most people 137 00:06:30,493 --> 00:06:33,373 Speaker 4: just accept it and move on. However, not all residents 138 00:06:33,413 --> 00:06:36,253 Speaker 4: are as compromising. One resident who didn't want to be named, 139 00:06:36,413 --> 00:06:39,533 Speaker 4: said the community did not condone that behavior at all. 140 00:06:39,573 --> 00:06:41,053 Speaker 4: He went on to say, I know a lot of 141 00:06:41,053 --> 00:06:44,053 Speaker 4: other locals feel the same. Obviously, talk goes around in 142 00:06:44,053 --> 00:06:46,333 Speaker 4: the pub and we're not really interested in that sort 143 00:06:46,373 --> 00:06:48,573 Speaker 4: of thing. That's such a beautiful turn of phrase for us. 144 00:06:48,573 --> 00:06:50,973 Speaker 4: We're not interested in that sort of thing. We don't 145 00:06:51,133 --> 00:06:51,853 Speaker 4: like that sort of. 146 00:06:51,893 --> 00:06:56,173 Speaker 3: Nudity, that sort of thing. Just I mean, as I've 147 00:06:56,213 --> 00:07:00,413 Speaker 3: said to you, Tyler, nude is how we come into 148 00:07:00,453 --> 00:07:03,573 Speaker 3: this world. Yep, right, that's the natural form of things. 149 00:07:03,613 --> 00:07:06,853 Speaker 3: The weird thing is putting on clothes. So I cannot 150 00:07:06,893 --> 00:07:10,133 Speaker 3: understand people having a problem with nude. Who cares? It's fine? 151 00:07:10,173 --> 00:07:12,853 Speaker 3: And also, look, I'm not a neudist. Well I have me, 152 00:07:13,053 --> 00:07:16,773 Speaker 3: but you know, just officially, just well we're just just 153 00:07:16,813 --> 00:07:21,133 Speaker 3: in a just in a skinny dipping capacity at my time. 154 00:07:21,493 --> 00:07:23,613 Speaker 3: And look, running across the beach from the batch and 155 00:07:23,613 --> 00:07:25,373 Speaker 3: the nude and running into the water is very freeing. 156 00:07:25,453 --> 00:07:26,973 Speaker 3: I can understand why people enjoy it. 157 00:07:27,013 --> 00:07:28,613 Speaker 4: Certainly is one of the joys in life. But it's 158 00:07:28,653 --> 00:07:30,773 Speaker 4: going to be a good, good discussion after two o'clock 159 00:07:30,773 --> 00:07:32,413 Speaker 4: because right now we want to have a chance. 160 00:07:32,893 --> 00:07:35,253 Speaker 3: That's right. We want to talk about booking dot com, 161 00:07:35,253 --> 00:07:40,573 Speaker 3: What if Expedia, Trevago, a Goonda, hotels dot com, those 162 00:07:40,693 --> 00:07:42,813 Speaker 3: kinds of sights. I hate them when they you know, 163 00:07:42,813 --> 00:07:44,813 Speaker 3: when I when I search, when I'm going somewhere and 164 00:07:44,813 --> 00:07:47,453 Speaker 3: I'm going somewhere that this weekend, I search and I 165 00:07:47,493 --> 00:07:50,413 Speaker 3: just get these lists of these leech sites that pop up, 166 00:07:50,893 --> 00:07:53,133 Speaker 3: and and I always what I always do is if 167 00:07:53,133 --> 00:07:54,733 Speaker 3: I see a hotel, I want I go directly and 168 00:07:54,813 --> 00:07:58,213 Speaker 3: book with the hotel. And I believe that that's the 169 00:07:58,293 --> 00:08:00,533 Speaker 3: right thing to do, but I could be wrong. My 170 00:08:00,933 --> 00:08:02,773 Speaker 3: logic on this is they don't run the hotels. They 171 00:08:02,813 --> 00:08:05,853 Speaker 3: just slip in. They just snake their way in between 172 00:08:05,893 --> 00:08:08,493 Speaker 3: you and the people that are doing the business. But 173 00:08:08,613 --> 00:08:10,733 Speaker 3: do they really get your cheaper deals either? Because when 174 00:08:10,733 --> 00:08:12,253 Speaker 3: I go to the hotel, I seem to just get 175 00:08:12,453 --> 00:08:16,493 Speaker 3: the same deal and it just feels cleaner, and it 176 00:08:16,533 --> 00:08:19,613 Speaker 3: just feels like they're siphoning off from a legitimate, legit business. 177 00:08:19,613 --> 00:08:21,333 Speaker 3: But am I an idiot for going straight to the 178 00:08:21,373 --> 00:08:23,733 Speaker 3: course I'd like to hear from travelers who use them, 179 00:08:23,813 --> 00:08:27,933 Speaker 3: those who don't, and hotel and motel owners on how 180 00:08:27,973 --> 00:08:32,372 Speaker 3: they feel about them. And you know, God, i'd like 181 00:08:32,413 --> 00:08:34,293 Speaker 3: to hear from the leeches themselves. I mean, that's a 182 00:08:34,293 --> 00:08:35,852 Speaker 3: little bit that's probably going to put them off. Calling 183 00:08:35,893 --> 00:08:37,773 Speaker 3: them leacheres. Maybe I'm wrong, Maybe they're not leachers. Maybe 184 00:08:37,773 --> 00:08:40,732 Speaker 3: they're doing a fantastic thing for the for the accommodation 185 00:08:40,852 --> 00:08:44,253 Speaker 3: business and tourism in our country. I've certainly been wrong before, 186 00:08:44,333 --> 00:08:47,733 Speaker 3: but I'm passing on these sites these days, and I'm 187 00:08:47,773 --> 00:08:50,413 Speaker 3: searching directly. I just go straight to just straight to 188 00:08:50,453 --> 00:08:53,252 Speaker 3: the hotel. So one undred and eighty ten eighty nineteen 189 00:08:53,533 --> 00:08:55,093 Speaker 3: two is the text number. What do you think about this? 190 00:08:55,333 --> 00:08:57,252 Speaker 4: I think we're finding more and more how these sites 191 00:08:57,293 --> 00:08:59,492 Speaker 4: operate right when they first came and came around. And 192 00:08:59,653 --> 00:09:01,973 Speaker 4: I'll be frank here, I've used them in the quite 193 00:09:02,012 --> 00:09:04,213 Speaker 4: recent past, but more and more people are starting to 194 00:09:04,213 --> 00:09:07,252 Speaker 4: look at those booking dot COM's expeedier and saying that 195 00:09:07,492 --> 00:09:12,293 Speaker 4: is probably ripping off our economy and New Zealand businesses. 196 00:09:12,533 --> 00:09:15,252 Speaker 3: I always picture it as a mum and dad motel 197 00:09:15,333 --> 00:09:19,732 Speaker 3: owner in a small town and then just having the 198 00:09:20,573 --> 00:09:23,213 Speaker 3: ticket clipped on them. Yeah, that's how I envisioned it. 199 00:09:23,213 --> 00:09:25,052 Speaker 3: But I could be one hundred percent wrong about this, 200 00:09:25,453 --> 00:09:27,813 Speaker 3: and so I'd like to know, because, boy, I'll tell 201 00:09:27,852 --> 00:09:29,372 Speaker 3: you what. It'd be probably easier to go to them, 202 00:09:29,453 --> 00:09:31,253 Speaker 3: although sometimes I've booked with them and I've turned up 203 00:09:31,252 --> 00:09:33,533 Speaker 3: at the hotel and it's like you don't exist. You know, 204 00:09:33,573 --> 00:09:35,852 Speaker 3: it's so complicate. There's so many layers between you and 205 00:09:35,933 --> 00:09:38,333 Speaker 3: your booking that they have to reinvent the wheel to 206 00:09:38,372 --> 00:09:40,093 Speaker 3: get you into your hotel room. 207 00:09:40,173 --> 00:09:42,012 Speaker 4: Yeah, I had one hundred and eighty ten eighty.

Then they send it to the hotel 248 00:11:37,453 --> 00:11:40,213 Speaker 4: saying we've got a guest come in your way, and 249 00:11:40,252 --> 00:11:42,413 Speaker 4: the hotel some hotels would look at that and say 250 00:11:42,732 --> 00:11:44,293 Speaker 4: booking dot Com again, what a pain? 251 00:11:44,372 --> 00:11:46,612 Speaker 3: Well, I think this there's two ways the sites work. 252 00:11:46,693 --> 00:11:48,652 Speaker 3: But we'll get to the calls right now. But there's 253 00:11:48,693 --> 00:11:50,213 Speaker 3: two ways they work. Some of them buy up a 254 00:11:50,213 --> 00:11:53,533 Speaker 3: bunch of hotels and some of them, sitting between you know, 255 00:11:53,573 --> 00:11:55,453 Speaker 3: they buy up a whole lot of rooms off the 256 00:11:55,453 --> 00:11:58,892 Speaker 3: hotel on sell them, which seems to be more honorable 257 00:11:59,053 --> 00:12:02,493 Speaker 3: because they've paid the you know, paid the price. But 258 00:12:02,573 --> 00:12:04,253 Speaker 3: let's go to Andrew. You did a study on the 259 00:12:04,293 --> 00:12:05,293 Speaker 3: said university. 260 00:12:06,813 --> 00:12:07,453 Speaker 5: Yeah, I didn't do. 261 00:12:07,693 --> 00:12:08,333 Speaker 6: How are we doing? 262 00:12:08,492 --> 00:12:11,413 Speaker 4: Ye're very good, so you'd know pretty well how this works. 263 00:12:12,892 --> 00:12:17,413 Speaker 6: It was relatively certain study. But I think the main 264 00:12:17,533 --> 00:12:19,292 Speaker 6: thing was that I guess for a. 265 00:12:19,252 --> 00:12:21,933 Speaker 7: Consumer, it was made a lot easier to go through 266 00:12:21,973 --> 00:12:24,813 Speaker 7: the likes of booking dot Com things compare and find 267 00:12:25,053 --> 00:12:28,333 Speaker 7: the right sort of thing. But yeah, for your typical 268 00:12:28,653 --> 00:12:33,093 Speaker 7: thumb and pop hotel and motel, it took you huge. 269 00:12:32,973 --> 00:12:35,293 Speaker 6: Chances of there there income and sort of force them 270 00:12:35,293 --> 00:12:36,213 Speaker 6: into some positions. 271 00:12:37,413 --> 00:12:40,733 Speaker 5: So what I took from it was it's really really 272 00:12:40,732 --> 00:12:43,293 Speaker 5: good to find good price on the likes of booking 273 00:12:43,293 --> 00:12:46,293 Speaker 5: dot Com, Expdia, et cetera. But then like you did 274 00:12:46,413 --> 00:12:50,612 Speaker 5: not call the motel direct and booked through. 275 00:12:50,492 --> 00:12:53,893 Speaker 6: Them, and then they try and chudge your X amounts 276 00:12:53,933 --> 00:12:55,652 Speaker 6: and then what you saw on booking that film was 277 00:12:55,653 --> 00:12:59,453 Speaker 6: a cheaper Just say I did see this one booking 278 00:12:59,492 --> 00:13:01,013 Speaker 6: up combo and rather comes to you to get the 279 00:13:01,773 --> 00:13:02,573 Speaker 6: you know, the full whack. 280 00:13:03,453 --> 00:13:06,333 Speaker 3: Yeah, because because as there there's am I right in 281 00:13:06,413 --> 00:13:08,333 Speaker 3: saying some and like I don't know what booking got 282 00:13:08,413 --> 00:13:11,053 Speaker 3: dot Com does, or what I for Expedia or Travago 283 00:13:11,252 --> 00:13:14,453 Speaker 3: or whatever what these different ones their model is. But 284 00:13:14,492 --> 00:13:17,773 Speaker 3: am I right in saying that some of them will 285 00:13:18,293 --> 00:13:20,652 Speaker 3: buy up a bunch of hotels rooms and then on 286 00:13:20,852 --> 00:13:24,173 Speaker 3: sell them and others just stand in between. And then 287 00:13:24,453 --> 00:13:27,133 Speaker 3: you know, like uber ex does and charges the charges 288 00:13:27,173 --> 00:13:29,173 Speaker 3: the motel and charges you. 289 00:13:30,533 --> 00:13:30,733 Speaker 8: Yeah. 290 00:13:30,813 --> 00:13:32,852 Speaker 6: Correct. Yeah, so some of them do buy a snack 291 00:13:32,933 --> 00:13:36,333 Speaker 6: of motile rooms or at least put them on hold. Yeah, 292 00:13:36,372 --> 00:13:39,853 Speaker 6: and then there's yeah, they certainly just and they have 293 00:13:40,252 --> 00:13:42,533 Speaker 6: a bit of a portal where they know the motel 294 00:13:42,573 --> 00:13:44,813 Speaker 6: owners can say, yeah, I've got vacancy, you can sell. 295 00:13:44,693 --> 00:13:45,732 Speaker 1: Eggs rooms yep. 296 00:13:46,453 --> 00:13:48,613 Speaker 6: So they know straight up about what they can advertise. 297 00:13:49,973 --> 00:13:53,573 Speaker 6: So yeah, it sounds stricty to motel owners because if 298 00:13:53,612 --> 00:13:58,053 Speaker 6: they don't like book dot com, that's a massive junker 299 00:13:58,173 --> 00:14:01,333 Speaker 6: marketing that they're missing out on, right, because you know, 300 00:14:01,372 --> 00:14:05,933 Speaker 6: they they just flood the market with online obviously, and 301 00:14:05,933 --> 00:14:07,853 Speaker 6: the first thing you see is booking the common expedia 302 00:14:08,492 --> 00:14:09,813 Speaker 6: that's out. 303 00:14:09,973 --> 00:14:11,813 Speaker 3: That's what I hate about it. I go to search 304 00:14:11,813 --> 00:14:14,532 Speaker 3: a town, so say I'm going to Topor on the weekend, 305 00:14:14,612 --> 00:14:17,653 Speaker 3: and i'd search you know, accommodation Topor, and you've just 306 00:14:17,653 --> 00:14:20,733 Speaker 3: got to you've got a way through these leech companies 307 00:14:20,773 --> 00:14:22,973 Speaker 3: before you can get to Actually what I want to 308 00:14:22,973 --> 00:14:25,693 Speaker 3: know is what what are some of the places in Topor. 309 00:14:25,733 --> 00:14:27,413 Speaker 3: And I never quite believe that they're putting it in 310 00:14:27,453 --> 00:14:30,053 Speaker 3: the order of worth or something. I always think that 311 00:14:30,053 --> 00:14:32,973 Speaker 3: there's there's a there's an issue there. So I look 312 00:14:32,973 --> 00:14:34,653 Speaker 3: at Booking dot Com, as you say, and then then 313 00:14:34,693 --> 00:14:39,213 Speaker 3: I ring up the motel or hotel directly. But they're 314 00:14:39,213 --> 00:14:41,773 Speaker 3: not paying, like the hotels and motels aren't paying to 315 00:14:41,773 --> 00:14:43,493 Speaker 3: be on booking dot com. Are they. 316 00:14:44,973 --> 00:14:45,453 Speaker 9: They pay? 317 00:14:45,853 --> 00:14:49,533 Speaker 6: When they hit a booking through Booking dot Com, they 318 00:14:49,773 --> 00:14:53,213 Speaker 6: take a huge chance of and come yeah, yeah right 319 00:14:53,253 --> 00:14:57,373 Speaker 6: and percent and they're advertising that counted rate. 320 00:14:57,533 --> 00:14:58,693 Speaker 3: So yeah, that's right. 321 00:14:59,253 --> 00:15:00,613 Speaker 6: It's not even worth while doing. 322 00:15:00,693 --> 00:15:07,453 Speaker 3: But yeah, and when they so when you yes, but 323 00:15:07,493 --> 00:15:09,013 Speaker 3: if they if they decide at if the if the 324 00:15:09,013 --> 00:15:11,853 Speaker 3: hotel and motel said I don't want stop listing me, 325 00:15:12,333 --> 00:15:14,373 Speaker 3: then then that's that's a huge risk. And if they 326 00:15:14,493 --> 00:15:16,853 Speaker 3: contact the Booking dot com and so don't mention my 327 00:15:16,853 --> 00:15:19,773 Speaker 3: my motel on your site, that would that would that 328 00:15:19,813 --> 00:15:21,693 Speaker 3: would need kept them as well. So it's that that's 329 00:15:21,693 --> 00:15:23,933 Speaker 3: what that's my that's my feeling about it. That's why 330 00:15:23,933 --> 00:15:24,333 Speaker 3: I don't like it. 331 00:15:24,373 --> 00:15:26,412 Speaker 6: And there would be some ins where they sort of 332 00:15:26,453 --> 00:15:29,013 Speaker 6: lose with Booking dot Com.

A local naturalist has stirred 876 00:42:42,253 --> 00:42:45,693 Speaker 4: discussion by advertising nude walks in the area. So this 877 00:42:45,773 --> 00:42:48,453 Speaker 4: is Lloyd Bana. He's the organizer of the walks as 878 00:42:48,493 --> 00:42:52,333 Speaker 4: a longtime nudist, aiming to bring like minded individuals together. 879 00:42:52,933 --> 00:42:56,933 Speaker 4: While some at Karka Point in Southland expressed this comfort, 880 00:42:56,973 --> 00:42:59,773 Speaker 4: Bana says the practice is a harmless way to enjoy 881 00:42:59,813 --> 00:43:02,493 Speaker 4: New Zealand's great outdoors. I kind of like that. So 882 00:43:02,933 --> 00:43:05,653 Speaker 4: speaking to the Herald, he said that naturism was about 883 00:43:05,853 --> 00:43:09,413 Speaker 4: freedom and I quote it just about getting out there 884 00:43:09,693 --> 00:43:13,053 Speaker 4: and enjoying the outdoors. Total freedom. To be honest, it 885 00:43:13,133 --> 00:43:14,893 Speaker 4: is fantastic, but. 886 00:43:14,893 --> 00:43:18,013 Speaker 3: Of a suddenly out be freckle, out of nature. Yeah, 887 00:43:18,053 --> 00:43:20,293 Speaker 3: I mean there is something to it. I mean surely 888 00:43:20,413 --> 00:43:24,213 Speaker 3: most of us have skinny dipped at some point, and 889 00:43:24,253 --> 00:43:26,533 Speaker 3: there is something about being newd in nature. I mean 890 00:43:26,653 --> 00:43:29,573 Speaker 3: it's a bit different being nude walking down Queen Stream. Yeah, 891 00:43:29,653 --> 00:43:30,732 Speaker 3: that's I. 892 00:43:30,693 --> 00:43:32,893 Speaker 4: Mean they would ruffle a few feathers, that would be 893 00:43:33,333 --> 00:43:33,933 Speaker 4: slightly on. 894 00:43:34,173 --> 00:43:36,333 Speaker 3: I saw someone nude walking down k Road the other day. 895 00:43:36,373 --> 00:43:38,373 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, Well, I think there was more of a 896 00:43:38,373 --> 00:43:42,613 Speaker 3: mental health issue than someone enjoying the feeling of being nude. 897 00:43:43,173 --> 00:43:45,652 Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean it is interesting how because there's 898 00:43:45,653 --> 00:43:49,053 Speaker 3: a lot of locals that are complaining about it. I 899 00:43:49,053 --> 00:43:52,293 Speaker 3: don't know, I don't think. I think people conflaint sexuality 900 00:43:52,333 --> 00:43:55,253 Speaker 3: and nudity. I mean, you can just be nude and 901 00:43:55,293 --> 00:43:58,373 Speaker 3: someone can see you nude, and everyone's seeing nudity in 902 00:43:58,373 --> 00:44:00,973 Speaker 3: their life, Like what does it really matter? And there's 903 00:44:00,973 --> 00:44:02,573 Speaker 3: a text here. I got two little girls, I do 904 00:44:02,653 --> 00:44:05,693 Speaker 3: not want them seeing a man in the nude. But 905 00:44:06,213 --> 00:44:09,373 Speaker 3: I mean we spent most of it in the nude. 906 00:44:10,173 --> 00:44:13,453 Speaker 3: Having closed on is the weird. It's the weird state 907 00:44:13,573 --> 00:44:17,253 Speaker 3: of our evolution. It's a very odd thing for mammals 908 00:44:17,253 --> 00:44:20,533 Speaker 3: to evolve to the point where they can't be out 909 00:44:20,573 --> 00:44:24,573 Speaker 3: in public without something that they've created themselves outside of nature. 910 00:44:24,653 --> 00:44:27,573 Speaker 3: Are ye clothes? Yeah, several layers of it. And then 911 00:44:27,613 --> 00:44:30,813 Speaker 3: some of us even put makeup on our faces. As 912 00:44:30,853 --> 00:44:33,093 Speaker 3: I said, before Falians came to Earth, they'd look at 913 00:44:33,133 --> 00:44:35,493 Speaker 3: us and go, we are the weird mammals. We're the ones. 914 00:44:35,533 --> 00:44:38,493 Speaker 3: We're in clothes. It's a very odd thing. I mean, 915 00:44:38,613 --> 00:44:41,133 Speaker 3: crabs they've got shells, so you know we're not the 916 00:44:41,133 --> 00:44:41,573 Speaker 3: only ones. 917 00:44:41,693 --> 00:44:43,733 Speaker 4: Yeah, let's not be talking about crabs and neodice at 918 00:44:43,773 --> 00:44:44,293 Speaker 4: the same time. 919 00:44:44,333 --> 00:44:46,213 Speaker 3: But it's a whole different issue. 920 00:44:45,693 --> 00:44:48,773 Speaker 4: I I your logic is sound, absolutely, but it's this 921 00:44:48,893 --> 00:44:51,893 Speaker 4: weird social conditioning that we've had for what probably the 922 00:44:52,173 --> 00:44:55,613 Speaker 4: last fifteen hundred years, maybe a little bit more, when 923 00:44:55,653 --> 00:44:59,613 Speaker 4: we started putting clothes on. And even though again completely 924 00:44:59,613 --> 00:45:02,013 Speaker 4: logical what you're saying, it got a bit weird when 925 00:45:02,053 --> 00:45:03,893 Speaker 4: we started putting on clothes. But I mean, they're down 926 00:45:03,933 --> 00:45:05,613 Speaker 4: in Southlands. You don't think they want to warm up 927 00:45:05,693 --> 00:45:06,172 Speaker 4: up down there. 928 00:45:06,213 --> 00:45:06,973 Speaker 3: You've got to respect that. 929 00:45:07,013 --> 00:45:09,692 Speaker 4: But I wouldn't be a neurdist, wouldn't. I would feel 930 00:45:09,693 --> 00:45:12,453 Speaker 4: incredibly embarrassed. And maybe that sees that's a weakness of 931 00:45:12,493 --> 00:45:14,613 Speaker 4: my own personality to say, hey, get some confidence in 932 00:45:14,653 --> 00:45:16,973 Speaker 4: your body, tightler, I just wouldn't. I wouldn't walk nude 933 00:45:16,973 --> 00:45:18,133 Speaker 4: with a bunch of random strangers. 934 00:45:18,213 --> 00:45:21,373 Speaker 3: Well, I'm talking in a positive way about nudity. I'm 935 00:45:21,373 --> 00:45:24,253 Speaker 3: also equally glad that you've got clothes on here, because 936 00:45:24,293 --> 00:45:25,573 Speaker 3: I don't really want to look at you in the neude. 937 00:45:25,613 --> 00:45:28,853 Speaker 3: No offense, and maybe that maybe that makes me a 938 00:45:28,933 --> 00:45:30,653 Speaker 3: hypocrite when I say it, But I just think I 939 00:45:30,893 --> 00:45:35,493 Speaker 3: don't know, nudists talk very highly of it and the 940 00:45:35,533 --> 00:45:38,013 Speaker 3: freeing nature of it, and there's something about just being 941 00:45:38,053 --> 00:45:42,133 Speaker 3: a pure human, just a pure being out in nature, 942 00:45:42,693 --> 00:45:45,053 Speaker 3: I imagine. I mean, I'm not a neudist myself. 943 00:45:45,493 --> 00:45:47,133 Speaker 4: Well you would be in your own home, though, isn't it. 944 00:45:47,173 --> 00:45:49,293 Speaker 4: And I think that's the word that you used and 945 00:45:49,733 --> 00:45:52,293 Speaker 4: Banar used as well. Freedom, that's what it is. And 946 00:45:52,773 --> 00:45:54,333 Speaker 4: I am a neudist in my own home. I hate 947 00:45:54,373 --> 00:45:56,053 Speaker 4: wearing clothes in my own home, but that is my 948 00:45:56,093 --> 00:45:58,853 Speaker 4: own home, and the curtains are drawn and nobody has 949 00:45:58,893 --> 00:46:01,333 Speaker 4: to see that, and I don't feel embarrassed. But these 950 00:46:01,333 --> 00:46:02,773 Speaker 4: guys who want to do it out in public, I 951 00:46:02,773 --> 00:46:04,493 Speaker 4: don't know. Is that where the line that you were 952 00:46:04,533 --> 00:46:08,813 Speaker 4: then invading other people's eyeballs with your own nudity is offensive. 953 00:46:08,933 --> 00:46:11,613 Speaker 3: Well, I was new in my sparkfull this morning. I've 954 00:46:11,613 --> 00:46:14,053 Speaker 3: got turned off for summer, so a post run I 955 00:46:14,093 --> 00:46:17,493 Speaker 3: called down in the cold water.

We're talking about nudists 1110 00:53:57,373 --> 00:54:00,133 Speaker 4: or naturists. This is on the back of an ad 1111 00:54:00,213 --> 00:54:03,133 Speaker 4: in a paper down in the bottom of the country 1112 00:54:03,653 --> 00:54:07,173 Speaker 4: advertising to join a group of nude walkers near carcap Points. 1113 00:54:07,333 --> 00:54:10,493 Speaker 3: The question is, Look, I'm not against nudi as I 1114 00:54:10,613 --> 00:54:13,533 Speaker 3: keep saying, it's it's natural, but why do people want 1115 00:54:13,573 --> 00:54:15,013 Speaker 3: to do it? Why is it a thing that just 1116 00:54:15,093 --> 00:54:17,773 Speaker 3: keeps coming that people feel like they need to walk 1117 00:54:17,813 --> 00:54:20,013 Speaker 3: around in the nude, not even just a tiny little 1118 00:54:20,053 --> 00:54:21,973 Speaker 3: piers of shorts on. They want to be completely nude 1119 00:54:21,973 --> 00:54:23,413 Speaker 3: with it all hanging out. Why. So I'd love to 1120 00:54:23,453 --> 00:54:26,813 Speaker 3: hear from nudists about why, why it's so good, what 1121 00:54:26,853 --> 00:54:30,053 Speaker 3: it means for you? Is it a spiritual thing? Why 1122 00:54:30,213 --> 00:54:31,652 Speaker 3: is it? Because because you are going to if you're 1123 00:54:31,653 --> 00:54:35,773 Speaker 3: walking around on a nude walk, you're going to potentially 1124 00:54:35,973 --> 00:54:38,173 Speaker 3: cause some problems. There's some people that aren't going to 1125 00:54:38,333 --> 00:54:40,893 Speaker 3: like it. So there must be a strong reason why 1126 00:54:40,973 --> 00:54:42,693 Speaker 3: you want to do it. I mean, there are nude beaches. 1127 00:54:43,733 --> 00:54:46,053 Speaker 3: If you if you know any of the names of them, 1128 00:54:46,053 --> 00:54:48,533 Speaker 3: then give me a text nineteen nine two. But there 1129 00:54:48,533 --> 00:54:50,493 Speaker 3: are nude beaches and you go there and people know 1130 00:54:50,533 --> 00:54:52,613 Speaker 3: that it's there. But to just be walking around there 1131 00:54:52,693 --> 00:54:54,893 Speaker 3: must be something about it where you can come across 1132 00:54:55,173 --> 00:54:58,293 Speaker 3: other people. So je hundred and eighty ten eighty. If 1133 00:54:58,333 --> 00:55:00,973 Speaker 3: you're a nudist, explain it to me. Yep, I want 1134 00:55:00,973 --> 00:55:03,013 Speaker 3: to find out what makes you tick. 1135 00:55:03,613 --> 00:55:05,933 Speaker 4: There's there's some great techs coming through.

So have you looked into becoming a 1167 00:56:25,173 --> 00:56:29,213 Speaker 4: naturist or nudist yourself? Have you undertaken activities where clothes 1168 00:56:29,253 --> 00:56:29,773 Speaker 4: were optional? 1169 00:56:31,533 --> 00:56:31,573 Speaker 24: No? 1170 00:56:31,853 --> 00:56:34,773 Speaker 17: Look, actually you you just given me a ring about that. 1171 00:56:35,013 --> 00:56:37,573 Speaker 17: So I'm quite happy to present my point of view. 1172 00:56:37,613 --> 00:56:39,813 Speaker 17: I just told you mate. There, I was out out 1173 00:56:39,893 --> 00:56:43,093 Speaker 17: on the garden with my watch. Seems to be quite 1174 00:56:43,133 --> 00:56:46,333 Speaker 17: a good quality all, he said. I was surprised by 1175 00:56:46,373 --> 00:56:49,493 Speaker 17: that because it's just an old digital watch and it 1176 00:56:49,533 --> 00:56:51,293 Speaker 17: seems to be working. Okay, But I'll tell you one 1177 00:56:51,333 --> 00:56:52,853 Speaker 17: thing I've got. I've got all my clothes on. 1178 00:56:53,293 --> 00:56:55,933 Speaker 4: Yeah. So you think there's something a bit weird about 1179 00:56:56,453 --> 00:56:59,133 Speaker 4: people who are into nudism, naturism. 1180 00:57:01,693 --> 00:57:05,453 Speaker 17: I don't think we should ban this, but I think 1181 00:57:05,533 --> 00:57:07,652 Speaker 17: there should be If people want to do that sort 1182 00:57:07,653 --> 00:57:10,693 Speaker 17: of thing, that's good, but there should be special places for. 1183 00:57:10,773 --> 00:57:11,253 Speaker 7: Them to do it. 1184 00:57:11,373 --> 00:57:13,333 Speaker 17: It's not appropriate for them to be doing it in 1185 00:57:13,413 --> 00:57:16,733 Speaker 17: public on a public beach. And I think still probably 1186 00:57:16,853 --> 00:57:18,573 Speaker 17: most of the population would agree with that. 1187 00:57:19,373 --> 00:57:21,933 Speaker 3: What's your problem with nudity and a public beach? 1188 00:57:24,413 --> 00:57:26,253 Speaker 17: Well, I think you've got to ask yourself why you'd 1189 00:57:26,253 --> 00:57:29,613 Speaker 17: even bother asking that question. Well, because that's wrong with 1190 00:57:29,733 --> 00:57:33,773 Speaker 17: them breaking up and down through I don't know, ricking 1191 00:57:33,893 --> 00:57:36,333 Speaker 17: and ma all without your clothes? Is that the next step? 1192 00:57:36,693 --> 00:57:38,853 Speaker 3: Well, I don't know, but like, do you find the 1193 00:57:39,293 --> 00:57:41,133 Speaker 3: human form offensive? 1194 00:57:42,813 --> 00:57:46,893 Speaker 17: I think that's I'm not quite sure what the question is. 1195 00:57:46,933 --> 00:57:50,173 Speaker 17: You know, there is a thing called modesty, and our 1196 00:57:50,213 --> 00:57:53,173 Speaker 17: culture has hung on that. You'll probably find most great 1197 00:57:53,213 --> 00:57:57,013 Speaker 17: civilizations are just about on the brink of collapse. Actually 1198 00:57:57,173 --> 00:58:00,413 Speaker 17: when you start sort of allowing things like public nudity. 1199 00:58:01,573 --> 00:58:04,213 Speaker 17: There's such a thing as common ordinary decency, and that's 1200 00:58:04,253 --> 00:58:05,213 Speaker 17: what we're lacking today. 1201 00:58:05,253 --> 00:58:07,813 Speaker 3: I think, what do you think that is? What do 1202 00:58:07,893 --> 00:58:12,173 Speaker 3: you think the good society societies need to need to 1203 00:58:12,253 --> 00:58:14,173 Speaker 3: be dressed, need to have clothes on. 1204 00:58:15,973 --> 00:58:18,173 Speaker 17: Well, I think there's such a thing as natural modesty. 1205 00:58:18,293 --> 00:58:18,453 Speaker 15: There is. 1206 00:58:19,453 --> 00:58:23,733 Speaker 17: I think we've been given to God, god given parts 1207 00:58:23,773 --> 00:58:26,093 Speaker 17: that we present to the public and those that we don't. 1208 00:58:26,813 --> 00:58:29,093 Speaker 17: When we start presenting the parts to the public that 1209 00:58:29,213 --> 00:58:31,693 Speaker 17: aren't should not be presented in public, we know we're 1210 00:58:32,373 --> 00:58:35,333 Speaker 17: probably on the downward decline if everyone's accepting it. 1211 00:58:35,653 --> 00:58:35,853 Speaker 8: Yeah. 1212 00:58:36,293 --> 00:58:39,813 Speaker 3: Yeah, although you could ask you argue that our God 1213 00:58:39,933 --> 00:58:42,333 Speaker 3: given bits have all been given to all of us, 1214 00:58:42,373 --> 00:58:44,813 Speaker 3: and that's the perfect human form. You know, that's that, 1215 00:58:44,933 --> 00:58:48,973 Speaker 3: that's the true natural human form. And where where when 1216 00:58:49,013 --> 00:58:50,933 Speaker 3: we when we cover that up, we're being ashamed of 1217 00:58:51,253 --> 00:58:51,653 Speaker 3: what we are? 1218 00:58:53,253 --> 00:58:55,893 Speaker 17: Well, let me put this to you this way, is it, Troy? 1219 00:58:56,053 --> 00:58:57,253 Speaker 1: Is it?

But I remember 1366 01:05:59,733 --> 01:06:02,093 Speaker 27: years ago there's a documentary on TV. 1367 01:06:02,333 --> 01:06:03,293 Speaker 10: There was probably TV. 1368 01:06:03,213 --> 01:06:06,773 Speaker 27: One of those days, and they were visiting different nudist 1369 01:06:06,853 --> 01:06:10,573 Speaker 27: camps and they were standing there interviewing an old couple 1370 01:06:10,733 --> 01:06:13,013 Speaker 27: on a beach. I were standing there, and of course 1371 01:06:13,053 --> 01:06:15,173 Speaker 27: they showed the top half of both them, but in 1372 01:06:15,293 --> 01:06:20,173 Speaker 27: the background, just as whether breakers break, a guy walked 1373 01:06:20,253 --> 01:06:23,773 Speaker 27: past very slowly and he turned around and looked at 1374 01:06:23,813 --> 01:06:27,293 Speaker 27: the camera. And he'd done that for about ten seconds. 1375 01:06:27,693 --> 01:06:31,373 Speaker 27: Then he continued walking, and then about twenty seconds later 1376 01:06:31,533 --> 01:06:34,133 Speaker 27: he came back the other way and done exactly the 1377 01:06:34,213 --> 01:06:37,333 Speaker 27: same thing. And of course the reason, the reason he'd 1378 01:06:37,373 --> 01:06:39,293 Speaker 27: done it is I look like he could have won 1379 01:06:39,373 --> 01:06:40,733 Speaker 27: a three legged race by himself. 1380 01:06:41,013 --> 01:06:41,813 Speaker 3: It was hilarious. 1381 01:06:44,133 --> 01:06:47,093 Speaker 27: It was hilarious, and I can't help thinking was it 1382 01:06:47,333 --> 01:06:50,773 Speaker 27: arranged or was it coincident? But he just wandered to 1383 01:06:50,853 --> 01:06:53,293 Speaker 27: pass still there had his dark glasses on. Of course 1384 01:06:53,333 --> 01:06:57,333 Speaker 27: I don't think you're allowed to wear them. But as 1385 01:06:57,373 --> 01:06:59,573 Speaker 27: I said, stood out even from a distance, he could 1386 01:06:59,573 --> 01:07:01,133 Speaker 27: have won a three legged race by himself. 1387 01:07:01,293 --> 01:07:05,373 Speaker 3: He had something to share, he had some people.

Yeah, you know, that's that's 1500 01:12:29,732 --> 01:12:32,852 Speaker 10: more of an aspiration. I feel like people getting worked 1501 01:12:32,933 --> 01:12:35,172 Speaker 10: up and wound up about it. Probably just a reflection 1502 01:12:35,412 --> 01:12:38,732 Speaker 10: on like our sort of mindset when it comes to 1503 01:12:39,133 --> 01:12:41,692 Speaker 10: sexuality and just sex in general, because those are the 1504 01:12:41,772 --> 01:12:45,692 Speaker 10: bits well sort of prudish about that that carries on. 1505 01:12:46,412 --> 01:12:49,852 Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's the thing, because there's nudity. I think 1506 01:12:49,893 --> 01:12:52,892 Speaker 3: people can flate nudity and sexual activity. I mean, nudity 1507 01:12:52,973 --> 01:12:56,492 Speaker 3: is just the natural state of humanity and sexuality is 1508 01:12:56,732 --> 01:13:00,812 Speaker 3: another thing. But also I can't agree with you. I'm 1509 01:13:01,013 --> 01:13:02,532 Speaker 3: I'm I'm the kind of guy that wouldn't really go 1510 01:13:02,732 --> 01:13:05,652 Speaker 3: nude much, and I think that's kind of a failing 1511 01:13:05,692 --> 01:13:08,572 Speaker 3: in me. It's a lack of confidence or something not. 1512 01:13:08,692 --> 01:13:11,372 Speaker 3: Not that I desire to walk through Rickedton more nude 1513 01:13:11,452 --> 01:13:14,093 Speaker 3: or streak or anything, but if you wanted to, if 1514 01:13:14,133 --> 01:13:16,532 Speaker 3: I wanted to, I still couldn't.

But let's not forget that these things have 1909 01:32:43,652 --> 01:32:47,932 Speaker 24: so many memories and life and experiences attached to them, 1910 01:32:48,772 --> 01:32:53,093 Speaker 24: and we can't demean or diminish how important those things are. 1911 01:32:54,173 --> 01:32:56,812 Speaker 24: It's part of the human experience, as part of our experience. 1912 01:32:57,253 --> 01:32:59,532 Speaker 24: I'm pretty art broken, you know, as a lot of 1913 01:32:59,572 --> 01:33:03,253 Speaker 24: people are.

Life just keeps on getting smaller, 1918 01:33:16,452 --> 01:33:19,652 Speaker 3: and we never ask why I think about that line 1919 01:33:19,732 --> 01:33:21,333 Speaker 3: quite a bit because I see friends that are going 1920 01:33:21,372 --> 01:33:23,973 Speaker 3: down terrible paths. That's a really great line, Yes, that 1921 01:33:24,372 --> 01:33:27,492 Speaker 3: describes the situation of a lot of addicts of none. 1922 01:33:27,893 --> 01:33:30,412 Speaker 24: Well, it's definitely thank you for picking up that line, 1923 01:33:30,412 --> 01:33:32,652 Speaker 24: because that's always been one of my favorites. And people 1924 01:33:32,732 --> 01:33:34,772 Speaker 24: don't bring that up from that song. They'll bring up 1925 01:33:35,173 --> 01:33:39,372 Speaker 24: you know, learn how to Smileness. Great song, Yeah, you know, 1926 01:33:39,612 --> 01:33:41,572 Speaker 24: I mean, I mean, there's some great lines and I 1927 01:33:41,692 --> 01:33:44,293 Speaker 24: think it's one of my best songs. Yeah, lyrically and 1928 01:33:44,412 --> 01:33:51,053 Speaker 24: musically melodically. That line particularly is anyone who's dealt with 1929 01:33:51,293 --> 01:33:57,093 Speaker 24: addicts or alcoholics or people who just cannot understand that 1930 01:33:57,213 --> 01:34:01,412 Speaker 24: they're come to the grips that they're powerless over this disease, 1931 01:34:01,572 --> 01:34:05,173 Speaker 24: over some disease that is just destroying them, and that 1932 01:34:05,253 --> 01:34:08,372 Speaker 24: they're destroying themselves. It's one thing to go through that, 1933 01:34:08,452 --> 01:34:12,053 Speaker 24: I've been there. It's another thing to watch it and 1934 01:34:12,812 --> 01:34:15,173 Speaker 24: knowing you can't do it. You can't throw them a 1935 01:34:15,253 --> 01:34:17,213 Speaker 24: life preserver, They're going to throw it back at you. 1936 01:34:17,772 --> 01:34:18,893 Speaker 10: You know it. 1937 01:34:20,452 --> 01:34:24,972 Speaker 24: And that line right there is like life keeps getting 1938 01:34:25,093 --> 01:34:29,333 Speaker 24: smaller and when you're in the middle of it, you 1939 01:34:29,572 --> 01:34:32,772 Speaker 24: just don't understand it until you actually get to a 1940 01:34:32,893 --> 01:34:36,172 Speaker 24: place like I did. And it took me many years 1941 01:34:36,652 --> 01:34:42,493 Speaker 24: to just realize that I was powerless and I surrendered. 1942 01:34:43,053 --> 01:34:46,452 Speaker 24: And before you do that, when you're an addict or 1943 01:34:46,492 --> 01:34:50,253 Speaker 24: an alcoholic, you think that that's giving up until you 1944 01:34:50,492 --> 01:34:54,532 Speaker 24: learn that to accept reality the way it is, accept 1945 01:34:54,572 --> 01:34:58,293 Speaker 24: the thing the way it is is actually not giving up. 1946 01:34:58,452 --> 01:35:03,773 Speaker 24: It's getting over that so that you can be successful 1947 01:35:03,933 --> 01:35:06,293 Speaker 24: and win and understand. And that's what happened to me 1948 01:35:07,812 --> 01:35:09,173 Speaker 24: almost six years ago. 1949 01:35:09,412 --> 01:35:12,372 Speaker 3: Well, I'm so glad that I did, and so well 1950 01:35:12,492 --> 01:35:14,892 Speaker 3: well put there that that that is all so true. 1951 01:35:14,933 --> 01:35:17,013 Speaker 3: And hey, look, thank you so much for keeping on 1952 01:35:17,612 --> 01:35:20,173 Speaker 3: rocking and coming back to New Zealand.
