1
00:00:07,173 --> 00:00:10,493
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Saturday Morning with Jack Teams podcast

2
00:00:10,613 --> 00:00:11,773
Speaker 1: from News Talks at b.

3
00:00:12,973 --> 00:00:16,093
Speaker 2: Eighteen minutes past nine on News Talk CVP. If your messages, Jack,

4
00:00:16,093 --> 00:00:18,013
Speaker 2: I'm with you. The fifteen hundred meters are still my

5
00:00:18,013 --> 00:00:21,853
Speaker 2: favorite race. John Walker still amazes me. Tactics and speed

6
00:00:22,013 --> 00:00:25,053
Speaker 2: are central. Going and watching it on YouTube. It's one

7
00:00:25,093 --> 00:00:27,013
Speaker 2: of my favorite activities, says how Are Yeah, it is

8
00:00:27,053 --> 00:00:29,013
Speaker 2: fun to go back and look at old fifteen hundred

9
00:00:29,013 --> 00:00:32,613
Speaker 2: meters racers because it doesn't go for too long. As well, Jack,

10
00:00:32,653 --> 00:00:35,253
Speaker 2: My husband Charlie says, watching the running at the Games

11
00:00:35,293 --> 00:00:39,173
Speaker 2: disconnects you from watching live as opposed to on TV. Yeah,

12
00:00:39,293 --> 00:00:42,413
Speaker 2: I mean it's great. Obviously, the TV coverage of Olympic

13
00:00:42,493 --> 00:00:45,733
Speaker 2: sports is amazing these days, but there is something really

14
00:00:45,733 --> 00:00:48,413
Speaker 2: special when you can see athletes doesn't have to be

15
00:00:48,413 --> 00:00:51,013
Speaker 2: at the Olympics performing at that level and get a

16
00:00:51,053 --> 00:00:55,933
Speaker 2: true appreciation of what they are doing, how fast they're running,

17
00:00:56,053 --> 00:00:58,493
Speaker 2: how high they're jumping, all that kind of thing. Ninety

18
00:00:58,493 --> 00:01:00,133
Speaker 2: two ninety two is our tech number. We're going to

19
00:01:00,133 --> 00:01:02,853
Speaker 2: catch up with our sport over very shortly. Get his

20
00:01:03,093 --> 00:01:07,693
Speaker 2: take on New Zealand's prospects at these Olympic Games. Still

21
00:01:07,693 --> 00:01:12,653
Speaker 2: feeling pretty gutted after that result of the New Zealand

22
00:01:12,653 --> 00:01:15,093
Speaker 2: men sevens in the quarter final yesterday. I mean, to

23
00:01:15,093 --> 00:01:17,973
Speaker 2: be knocked out this early of medals contention, this early

24
00:01:18,013 --> 00:01:20,093
Speaker 2: in the Olympics is pretty gutting. So we're going to

25
00:01:20,133 --> 00:01:22,693
Speaker 2: get to Asportos. Thoughts on all of that. Kevin Milne

26
00:01:22,813 --> 00:01:23,973
Speaker 2: is Weather's first up this morning.

27
00:01:23,973 --> 00:01:28,173
Speaker 3: No, good morning, Kevin, Morning Jack. So was the Paris

28
00:01:28,213 --> 00:01:30,733
Speaker 3: opening ceremony the best or terrible?

29
00:01:31,133 --> 00:01:31,413
Speaker 4: Well?

30
00:01:31,493 --> 00:01:32,053
Speaker 3: What do you think?

31
00:01:32,173 --> 00:01:32,453
Speaker 4: I mean?

32
00:01:32,973 --> 00:01:36,133
Speaker 2: To be honest, Okay, I love the Olympics. I find

33
00:01:36,173 --> 00:01:40,053
Speaker 2: the opening ceremony always just a bit stage challenge. It's

34
00:01:40,093 --> 00:01:45,853
Speaker 2: a bit cheesy for me, and today's was no exception.

35
00:01:47,413 --> 00:01:52,973
Speaker 2: Just just seeing the last drenched athletes coming down the scene.

36
00:01:52,973 --> 00:01:54,413
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm sure it's really fun to be a

37
00:01:54,453 --> 00:01:57,813
Speaker 2: part of and stuff, but yeah, it's it's probably I'm

38
00:01:57,813 --> 00:02:00,533
Speaker 2: probably the wrong person to be asking, to be perfectly honest.

39
00:02:00,693 --> 00:02:03,853
Speaker 2: Although we were talking to well, we're talking to a

40
00:02:03,893 --> 00:02:06,933
Speaker 2: colleague on the ground there and he reckoned it was

41
00:02:06,933 --> 00:02:08,373
Speaker 2: the best ever. So there you go.

42
00:02:08,613 --> 00:02:10,493
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, well there you go. I mean I think

43
00:02:10,493 --> 00:02:11,933
Speaker 3: it was great. I think there'll be a lot of

44
00:02:11,933 --> 00:02:15,733
Speaker 3: people who would say it was awful. Yeah, because actually

45
00:02:15,733 --> 00:02:19,813
Speaker 3: it was pretty radically different than anything else I've seen. Yeah,

46
00:02:19,893 --> 00:02:25,653
Speaker 3: and the big transvestite sort of yeah, sort of presence.

47
00:02:27,573 --> 00:02:30,013
Speaker 3: I mean, I just thought it was great, really modern,

48
00:02:30,253 --> 00:02:33,773
Speaker 3: a little bit challenging to some extent because everything was

49
00:02:33,813 --> 00:02:37,293
Speaker 3: so different. Yeah, but i'd say good on the old French.

50
00:02:37,533 --> 00:02:39,573
Speaker 3: Yeah for shaking it up with that.

51
00:02:39,893 --> 00:02:44,053
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, No, I'm sure it'll be well received. I

52
00:02:44,173 --> 00:02:46,573
Speaker 2: just feel I'm just fired about it's even going to

53
00:02:46,613 --> 00:02:49,453
Speaker 2: be sick because it's just been absolutely pouring with rain.

54
00:02:49,493 --> 00:02:50,893
Speaker 2: I've got a couple of friends who are there for

55
00:02:50,973 --> 00:02:53,533
Speaker 2: work and they say that it's warm. But still, if

56
00:02:53,533 --> 00:02:55,173
Speaker 2: you're looking to be performing at your best, do you

57
00:02:55,253 --> 00:02:57,413
Speaker 2: really want to be standing out in the elements for hours?

58
00:02:57,413 --> 00:03:02,173
Speaker 2: And anyway, Kevin, you have been thinking about spectacles and

59
00:03:02,213 --> 00:03:04,253
Speaker 2: a whole range of fields this week, because as well

60
00:03:04,293 --> 00:03:07,053
Speaker 2: as the Olympic ceremony, you've been thinking about New Zealand's

61
00:03:07,053 --> 00:03:08,333
Speaker 2: greatest ads.

62
00:03:08,733 --> 00:03:10,813
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean I thought we could talk about the

63
00:03:10,813 --> 00:03:15,573
Speaker 3: Marketing Association's call for New Zealanders to vote the best

64
00:03:15,613 --> 00:03:21,573
Speaker 3: ever New Zealand TV ad campaign. I think they put it.

65
00:03:22,373 --> 00:03:24,853
Speaker 3: They're bringing it down into decades but I thought you'd

66
00:03:24,893 --> 00:03:27,253
Speaker 3: just throw them all in together. So here we are

67
00:03:27,493 --> 00:03:31,773
Speaker 3: the best ever New Zealand TV ads going right back

68
00:03:31,813 --> 00:03:36,093
Speaker 3: to the seventies and eighties, two ads absolutely dominate. The

69
00:03:36,133 --> 00:03:42,493
Speaker 3: Great Crunchy Train Robbery and the Extraordinary Well that was

70
00:03:42,533 --> 00:03:46,373
Speaker 3: an amazing production done on the chief actually featuring just

71
00:03:46,413 --> 00:03:49,093
Speaker 3: about every well known TV actor in the country at

72
00:03:49,133 --> 00:03:52,893
Speaker 3: the time, and a brilliant song that was the seventies.

73
00:03:53,893 --> 00:03:58,373
Speaker 3: And in eighty one came the Basf Dear John ad,

74
00:03:58,413 --> 00:04:00,973
Speaker 3: which was so good I am sure that the ad

75
00:04:01,013 --> 00:04:03,893
Speaker 3: had been made in the States, but no, we've done it.

76
00:04:04,533 --> 00:04:07,613
Speaker 3: Before we leave that era, I've got to mention the

77
00:04:07,733 --> 00:04:11,693
Speaker 3: huge scale Europa Traveling on ad with the coolest models

78
00:04:11,693 --> 00:04:14,893
Speaker 3: and musicians ever assembled for an ad in New Zealand,

79
00:04:15,253 --> 00:04:18,733
Speaker 3: and of course the Crumpy and Scottie ads for Toyota.

80
00:04:19,133 --> 00:04:22,653
Speaker 3: Then along came the Anchor Family ads, and around about

81
00:04:22,653 --> 00:04:28,013
Speaker 3: that time you're starting to watch TV, I think we've

82
00:04:28,093 --> 00:04:30,853
Speaker 3: gone even further back from when you were born there.

83
00:04:32,053 --> 00:04:34,773
Speaker 3: So then along came the Anchor Family Ads, which was

84
00:04:34,853 --> 00:04:38,693
Speaker 3: basically a soap opera. Yeah, each episode lasting about a minute.

85
00:04:38,973 --> 00:04:43,493
Speaker 3: It captured the country's hearts for years, and similarly Spot

86
00:04:43,573 --> 00:04:47,373
Speaker 3: the Dog forty three different episodes that around from ninety

87
00:04:47,493 --> 00:04:50,533
Speaker 3: ninety one to ninety eight and had us all howling

88
00:04:50,573 --> 00:04:54,893
Speaker 3: into our seeps when spot that gorgeous Jack Russell finally

89
00:04:54,933 --> 00:04:58,533
Speaker 3: turned up back home and speaking about a good cry.

90
00:04:59,053 --> 00:05:03,453
Speaker 3: I just loved telecoms, keep in Touch, Father's Day ad

91
00:05:03,733 --> 00:05:08,653
Speaker 3: with Cat Stevens's Gorgeous Father and Sun Song. What are

92
00:05:08,693 --> 00:05:10,693
Speaker 3: the best ads on at the moment? Well, I'll go

93
00:05:10,773 --> 00:05:13,773
Speaker 3: for pack and say Snickman, though it's probably near the

94
00:05:13,853 --> 00:05:17,173
Speaker 3: end of its run, and of course Tina from Turner's

95
00:05:17,333 --> 00:05:21,133
Speaker 3: But come on, Turner's time you made a new one.

96
00:05:21,453 --> 00:05:24,013
Speaker 3: My favorite ad of all time, Jack, I have to

97
00:05:24,093 --> 00:05:27,213
Speaker 3: go back to before you were born, which seems really

98
00:05:27,213 --> 00:05:31,493
Speaker 3: weird the bas f. Dear John ad let's flay it again.

99
00:05:32,173 --> 00:05:38,653
Speaker 4: Dear Joe, how I hate to ride awasa. Dear Joe,

100
00:05:40,093 --> 00:05:40,813
Speaker 4: I must.

101
00:05:40,653 --> 00:05:44,733
Speaker 3: Let you know tonight then.

102
00:05:46,293 --> 00:05:54,973
Speaker 4: For you is gone, So I'm sending you the song tonight.

103
00:05:55,573 --> 00:06:01,733
Speaker 4: I'm with another you like him to he's your brother,

104
00:06:03,133 --> 00:06:06,693
Speaker 4: so to you for a ever.

105
00:06:09,413 --> 00:06:11,773
Speaker 2: It might have been before my time, Kevin, but I've

106
00:06:11,813 --> 00:06:14,253
Speaker 2: definitely heard it. I've definitely heard it before, and that

107
00:06:14,333 --> 00:06:16,373
Speaker 2: will take a lot of our listeners back. I reckon,

108
00:06:16,373 --> 00:06:19,173
Speaker 2: there is just one one ad you're missing in your list?

109
00:06:19,413 --> 00:06:23,053
Speaker 2: Can I gently suggest it? We are the boys from

110
00:06:23,093 --> 00:06:25,733
Speaker 2: down on the farm. We really know our cheese. There's

111
00:06:25,773 --> 00:06:28,173
Speaker 2: no better of Ellie than Cheersdale. It's always shorter.

112
00:06:28,293 --> 00:06:33,293
Speaker 3: Please before your first too, wouldn't I think it was.

113
00:06:33,493 --> 00:06:35,693
Speaker 2: There's also the KFC one. You know, the cows and

114
00:06:35,733 --> 00:06:37,853
Speaker 2: the sheep and the birds and the horses were moving

115
00:06:37,893 --> 00:06:40,413
Speaker 2: and yes, I'm just thinking of jingling.

116
00:06:40,733 --> 00:06:44,093
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, not that one. Yeah, I agree with.

117
00:06:44,813 --> 00:06:47,053
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's a bit of a classic. Hey, thank you.

118
00:06:47,093 --> 00:06:48,933
Speaker 2: I know our listeners will have many thoughts on that

119
00:06:49,013 --> 00:06:51,133
Speaker 2: as well. Here you go. How about the Buggarad. I

120
00:06:51,213 --> 00:06:53,053
Speaker 2: think that's got to be the all time greatest. I

121
00:06:53,373 --> 00:06:57,013
Speaker 2: think certainly, of like the last thirty years, the Buggerad

122
00:06:57,053 --> 00:07:01,693
Speaker 2: has probably has probably had the most impact or coverage

123
00:07:01,773 --> 00:07:05,853
Speaker 2: right just you know, the Olympic Games opening ceremony are

124
00:07:05,893 --> 00:07:10,253
Speaker 2: almost I'm currently Celine Dion is singing, so I'm sure

125
00:07:10,293 --> 00:07:12,253
Speaker 2: we'll all be able to enjoy that. But I think

126
00:07:12,373 --> 00:07:15,413
Speaker 2: they are finally reaching their conclusion having been running for

127
00:07:15,453 --> 00:07:16,173
Speaker 2: about four hours.

128
00:07:16,173 --> 00:07:19,933
