1 00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:08,160 Speaker 1: More like leaves me behind. Because Sharon Corp of the 2 00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:11,400 Speaker 1: Courses had a dispute with budget airline Ryanair over her violin. 3 00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:14,360 Speaker 1: She's the violin player obviously in the band. She said 4 00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:16,440 Speaker 1: on social media that she wasn't let on the flight 5 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 1: from Madrid to Dublin because she had her violin with her. 6 00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 1: Ryanair says, now, that's not what happened. The violin was 7 00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,000 Speaker 1: too big to go in the cabin and Sharon was 8 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:25,639 Speaker 1: given the option to have it, you know, put in 9 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 1: the hold as check bag, and she just needed to 10 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 1: pay the extra fee for it, but she didn't want to, 11 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 1: so she didn't catch the flight. But she says, no, no, 12 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 1: that's not what happened. The violin is too fragile for 13 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,000 Speaker 1: the hold, and she'd actually offered to buy it its 14 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 1: own seat, but they wouldn't let her. International correspondence with 15 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 1: Ends and Eye Insurance peace of mind for New Zealand business. 16 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,200 Speaker 1: And as a result, what she then did was cried, 17 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,239 Speaker 1: She said on social media. She cried and then she 18 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,080 Speaker 1: went searching for her bags and that took her a 19 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 1: really long time, and all up she was in that 20 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: Madrid airport for seven hours. Happens to absolutely everyone Heather 21 00:00:57,920 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 1: had produce. 22 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 2: Laura says that she is definitely taken in a violin 23 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 2: and the Handley's four and it fit just fine. 24 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:04,319 Speaker 3: So I don't know what's going on here. 25 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 1: Why does that not surprise me that the nerdy producer 26 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: from Germany? Like could you be more German? She fluent 27 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 1: in multiple languages and also she plays the vilain obviously, 28 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,680 Speaker 1: Dan Mitchinson, just what an overachiever? How annoying? Never talk 29 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 1: to me about your violin ever again, Laura, Thank you. 30 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 1: Dan Michinson us correspondence with me now, Hello Dan. 31 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 3: On the other end of the spectrum, Hello there, Heather. 32 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: Dan tell me you can only speak one language day? 33 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,399 Speaker 3: Yes, often, and I'm working on that every day. 34 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: A normal person. I appreciate it. Yeah, me too, I'm 35 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: still working on English. Hey. So Joe Biden's interview with 36 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 1: George Stephanopolis. Now do we know whether he recorded this 37 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,399 Speaker 1: during his optimal peak hours ten am to four pm? 38 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 3: Ah, no, we don't. 39 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:46,839 Speaker 2: But that actually you bring up a good point because 40 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 2: that's causing the uproar here. This is going to be 41 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 2: a taped interview, so it's going to be edited as 42 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 2: Stephanopoulos in all fairness is a great interviewer. 43 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 3: He's also a former Clinton aide. 44 00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 2: So there's already been accusations that are the part and 45 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 2: stumbles and whatnot that we've seen with President Biden will 46 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 2: be edited out. So you can imagine what Republicans have 47 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 2: been saying about this already, that it's not going to 48 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 2: be you know, fair or or balanced, and this whole 49 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 2: thing should have been done live instead of spreading it 50 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 2: across you know, three or four days and a number 51 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:16,839 Speaker 2: of news programs over here. 52 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, fair enough. Now, So I'm struggling to understand how 53 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: this is going to play out the extended interview on Sunday, 54 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: what's coming out on Friday? Like just a business Well. 55 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 2: They're going to do the interview on Friday, all right. 56 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 2: Then they're going to start airing bits and pieces of 57 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 2: it on the evening News and then on the Sunday 58 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 2: talk shows, and then on the Good Morning America program 59 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 2: on ABC on Monday. So I think we'll get our 60 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 2: first taste of what he has to say and how 61 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 2: he's looking and talking on on the evening News Friday night. 62 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 2: But they're going to sort of spread this out as 63 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 2: much as they can across the across the number of 64 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 2: news shows and then Biden's going to do a press 65 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 2: conference at the NATO summit in Washington, d C. Next week, 66 00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:00,079 Speaker 2: But you know he'll take questions from a number of reporters. 67 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 3: But you know if those are going to be pre 68 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 3: screen screen questions or not. 69 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: Dan, can he undo the damage? I mean every time 70 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 1: he comes out and you know, is performing an energetic 71 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 1: I suppose it allays some of the fear, but will 72 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: it ever allay all of the fear? 73 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 2: You can't unsee what we saw during that debate, you 74 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,519 Speaker 2: know that's the problem. Yeah. I mean they're going to 75 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 2: continue to show that over and over and over again, 76 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 2: and the Republicans are going to use that in every 77 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 2: commercial and every possible opportunity they can. So, I mean, 78 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 2: he may have gotten a little boost in some polls 79 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 2: from that debate. People thought he was more trustworthy than 80 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. But did he come across better than Trump 81 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 2: on that? 82 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 3: No? No, he didn't. 83 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, fair enough, Listen, you reckon that these rich Americans 84 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,839 Speaker 1: who fled for New Zealand during the hour doing years 85 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: are coming back. 86 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 2: You know, it's interesting because what happened was that after 87 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 2: that that's debate, I mean, John Stewart equipped on The 88 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 2: Daily Show that he needed to call a real estate 89 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 2: agent in New Zealand. And this isn't something new because 90 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 2: when Trump came into office, of liberals said they were 91 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 2: going to move to Canada, and you know, they practically. 92 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 3: Swore on a Bible. 93 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 2: And I can't tell you a single Democrat or Hollywood actor, 94 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 2: a musician who followed up on the threat. So when 95 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 2: your former PM Jasinda Ardern was in power, we saw 96 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 2: more Americans born over there in New Zealand. They say 97 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 2: a thirty percent more compared with five years earlier. But 98 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 2: as we know, times have changed in your country. You 99 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 2: have a more conservative government, the most that we've seen 100 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 2: in a while. And I think that's caught a lot 101 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 2: of people off guard who thought about moving over there 102 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 2: by surprise. And that's got people now rethinking, is this 103 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 2: the political utopia and this being New Zealand? 104 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: Oh, that's right. They should go back, They should go 105 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 1: back and experience the Trump He is two point zero. 106 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 2: Well now they're going to Now a lot of them 107 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 2: are looking back again to Canada, or they're looking south. 108 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 3: To Mexico right now. 109 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 2: So let's keep our little secret of New Zealand, especially 110 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 2: dune Eden, that little jewel at the southern part of 111 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 2: your island. 112 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: Secret between us, love I Dan, Thank you so much 113 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 1: you always wonderful appreciated.
