Speaker 2: that breaking news is. That might be police pursuits, or
Speaker 2: whale strandings or fires. Friday nights big for fires, isn't it.
Speaker 2: I don't know why a lot of those e waste
Speaker 2: places seem to go up on a Friday?
Speaker 3: Is it just me?
Speaker 2: Anyway? So you've got breaking news, let us know what
Speaker 2: that breaking news is. Thanks for the person that gave
Speaker 2: us the heads up. We had breaking news last night
Speaker 2: that Schoolboy Rugby was going to be televised by Sky
Speaker 2: and I got the jump on the newspapers by that
Speaker 2: by twelve hours, So thank you for that. I think
Speaker 2: the teams didn't one of the coaches because it gave
Speaker 2: the players big heads. I just see me on the
Speaker 2: TV anyway. That's back. So there we go. I guess
Speaker 2: it's cheap for sky go along there film that show.
Speaker 2: It good to watch. Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty
Speaker 2: open line talk tonight. That means you could talk about
Speaker 2: anything at all. It's your it's your gig. So whatever
Speaker 2: you want to talk about, I'm here. You might be
Speaker 2: doing something interesting tonight. You might have a state of
Speaker 2: a nation. You might be a Nubris out there delivering food.
Speaker 2: You might be one of the things that people do
Speaker 2: at this time and the night. We had an interesting
Speaker 2: guy that works on as a security guard of a marina. Well,
Speaker 2: what on that's light? You walk back and forward along
Speaker 2: the probably the boat rams anyway, So you might be
Speaker 2: doing something interesting. Gives a call from work also, that's
Speaker 2: always good. Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty and nine
Speaker 2: two ninety two detext straight off the bat for me firstly,
Speaker 2: and I'm becoming slightly so I've gone from absolutely no
Speaker 2: interest whatsoever to slight bit of interest in the Eurovision
Speaker 2: song conscious only because I know it's for so long
Speaker 2: been a butt of so many jokes and it's sort
Speaker 2: of gone gone I've got some sort of it's sort
Speaker 2: of well known in sort of a camp. He wouldn't
Speaker 2: want to watch that typeway. However, every year people get
Speaker 2: more and more serious about it. As Britain goes years
Speaker 2: and years without winning it, you might want to say
Speaker 2: something about that. You also might want to tell me
Speaker 2: where we can watch it live. I presume it'll be
Speaker 2: on YouTube, but you might know something else about that.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 2: When they call it Eurovision, I remember one year Australia
Speaker 2: wasn't it. I think one year Israel wasn't it. So
Speaker 2: I'm not quite sure why it's called Eurovision. I think
Speaker 2: Abba won it, Am I right? And I think bucks
Speaker 2: Furs won it now ABBA's good, buck Furs worn't quite
Speaker 2: as good. Can you remember the song of bucks Furz?
Speaker 2: It was also a drink. I think champagne orange juice,
Speaker 2: am I rode? I think Bucksford's song was making my
Speaker 2: mind up? Now I might be completely wrong about that,
Speaker 2: and that would be fine. By the way, Sandy Show
Speaker 2: won it with a puppet on a string. Like a
Speaker 2: puppet on a string, so that's something else. That's probably
Speaker 2: the one you would ever won it with. Waterloo ah
Speaker 2: wah wah, Wah wah Waterloo. I challenge you to go
Speaker 2: to the railway station in London, the Waterloo railway station
Speaker 2: and not sing that song. No one's managed to achieve that.
Speaker 2: Bucks Furs nineteen eighty one, Making your mind up. What
Speaker 2: you need to win Eurovision is a very very very
Speaker 2: catchy chorus. It's all about the chorus and the stage direction.
Speaker 5: Anyway.
Speaker 2: You might have something to say about the Eurovision Song contest.
Speaker 2: You might have more to say about it than I do. Yeah,
Speaker 2: eight hundred and eighty Teddy and nine to nine to
Speaker 2: text was canceled in twenty twenty because of COVID. That'd
Speaker 2: be good on the chase. Who won Eurovision twenty twenty?
Speaker 2: No one canceled COVID. Philip Marcus and early for you,
Speaker 2: Philip welcome.
Speaker 6: Ah yeah, I'm on Colston were Stalkland. We've had no
Speaker 6: power for over two hours.
Speaker 2: Oh that's terrible. If it was there allowed to be.
Speaker 6: No, there was a big white flash.
Speaker 2: I love a big white flesh. Was the big white
Speaker 2: flesh nearby?
Speaker 6: Yeah? Yeah, my kitchen window sort of thing? And if
Speaker 6: actual more road there, I.
Speaker 2: Reckon it's probably a car gone into a transformer. Did
Speaker 2: you hear a bang or just the crash.
Speaker 6: No, no, no, just a big white flash out the window.
Speaker 2: Okay, have you what have you got? You just got
Speaker 2: a how can you ring me on your cell phone?
Speaker 6: Yeah? That's all I've got here, what I've had to tea?
Speaker 7: That's all?
Speaker 6: Okay?

Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, okay.
Speaker 2: Guess what time it's hang on? Hang on Philip, Yeah,
Speaker 2: guess what time the power is coming back on?
Speaker 6: About midnight?
Speaker 5: Spose later.
Speaker 2: Later again?
Speaker 6: Yeah? Yeah, Now I've got a text about half an
Speaker 6: hour after it went off to say the power had
Speaker 6: gone off or whatever and that. But it went off
Speaker 6: about ten past six.
Speaker 2: I guess between twelve twelve p midnight and six am.
Speaker 2: Guess when we'll come back on.
Speaker 6: At six am and the more.
Speaker 2: Street it's coming it's back on at three am, Philip.
Speaker 6: Hi, Yeah, all right then, thanks very much for that market.
Speaker 2: That's one of the That's what I think in future
Speaker 2: when people want to know what time the parent it's
Speaker 2: going to be a guessing competition. I am talking about
Speaker 2: your vision. There are curses in the Eurovision Song cast.
Speaker 2: Did you know that there's curses? Yes, curses and cautionary tales.
Speaker 8: Yep.
Speaker 2: Now The other thing they reckon to rent to win
Speaker 2: Eurovision is you need to incorporate a folk instrument like
Speaker 2: a harp or something from your national canon of instruments.
Speaker 2: By the way, Ukraine is an extremely successful country and Eurovision,
Speaker 2: but Ireland and Sweden are the most successful. The one
Speaker 2: at seven times each in Australia isn't it because they're invited?
Speaker 2: And twenty fifteen because of their goodwill? Anyway, if you
Speaker 2: want to talk about that good, anything else good? Oh
Speaker 2: eight hundred eighty ten eighty and nine two nine two
Speaker 2: to text the year. Mainly the question was have you
Speaker 2: ever actually attended it? Or the other question is where
Speaker 2: would you watch it? It's huge in England. People hate
Speaker 2: watch it through like between their fingers because some of
Speaker 2: it's so bad. You knowway get in touch. Oh eight
Speaker 2: hundred eighty ten eighty and nine two nine two to
Speaker 2: text Marcus, when do you give up a movie franchises?
Speaker 2: When they hit number ten? Star Warsn't Fast and the Furious,
Speaker 2: I don't know Fast than the Furious was kind of
Speaker 2: weird because they went backwards in time. I think I
Speaker 2: watched all the Faster The Furious over the summer break
Speaker 2: almost none of it. I remember heartbreaking when that guy
Speaker 2: did beget in touch you on to be on Ammonemius
Speaker 2: Marcus welcome, Oh eight hundred eighty to ten eighty and

Speaker 9: Oh Marcus, how you good luck.
Speaker 5: To the show.
Speaker 9: I've never actually tuned in at at the start of
Speaker 9: your show with the oh wow that that song that
Speaker 9: teased the chorus that I think you must have had
Speaker 9: the country singing I'm your lady.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's that's not a thing. Think that's at
Speaker 2: the start of every hour. Look, that's not just at
Speaker 2: the beginning, well, that's every hour.
Speaker 9: Oh yeah.
Speaker 2: Gosh, if you've been a really sporadic listener, if you
Speaker 2: haven't even heard the top.
Speaker 1: Of the hour.
Speaker 9: Well, no, no, I don't the honor of the treat
Speaker 9: to listen to your show very often? No, clearly, so
Speaker 9: it's happened. Great, great to be listening again. How can
Speaker 9: you even do any interviews? Or do I not hear
Speaker 9: them either? Do you think it's doing any interviews or
Speaker 9: famous people records?
Speaker 10: No?
Speaker 9: Oh god, that's a shame.
Speaker 2: Well no, here hear me out right?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 2: So what say tonight?
Speaker 9: Right? Yeah?
Speaker 2: At eight forty five.
Speaker 5: M h.
Speaker 2: I interviewed someone about what happened if at eight forty
Speaker 2: I interviewed someone for twenty minutes on the early days
Speaker 2: of Christianity?
Speaker 9: So what happens?
Speaker 2: What happens when you do an interview Everyone that's not
Speaker 2: interested in that, they're just they've just gone.
Speaker 9: But I think you got I think you've got the
Speaker 9: skill of make certainly.
Speaker 2: But also but if you're not into that, then you're gone,
Speaker 2: aren't you? You know when listen to the right thing,
Speaker 2: Oh god, not herm not not hom again going on
Speaker 2: about and certain topic there, and you just run a
Speaker 2: thousand miles because you're not into it.
Speaker 9: If you get them on the teas to that song, though,
Speaker 9: they'll be helped for at least now.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 2: But I'm glad you asked about that because I've always
Speaker 2: prouded my prouded my prided myself on not doing interviews
Speaker 2: because yeah, you just just I mean, and sometimes the
Speaker 2: people it's almost interviews because pretty much like you'd have
Speaker 2: a you'd have your own era of expertise. Let me
Speaker 2: think about you, Luke watch what's your mastermind topic?
Speaker 11: Uh?
Speaker 9: Would timber WoT?
Speaker 11: Well?
Speaker 2: No, you see, I think woods interest. I'll tune in
Speaker 2: for you for twenty minutes on wood.
Speaker 3: I do.
Speaker 9: I can't get quite detailed. I do gets told off
Speaker 9: by the wife.
Speaker 5: You do you.
Speaker 2: Are you a carpenter? Do you do things with wood?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 9: Yeah, so anything to do with wood, from cutting trees down, melling, machining,
Speaker 9: fine furniture, firewood, you know, anything to do.
Speaker 5: With wo wow.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what's your favorite firewood?
Speaker 12: Oh?
Speaker 9: At the moment blackwood?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I don't know what that is.
Speaker 9: Oh it's in Acacia Tasmanian blackwood. And she goes all night.
Speaker 2: You see, I'm bringing a lot of gorse and that's
Speaker 2: giving me a huge wood because you get some you
Speaker 2: get some good bits about six inches across. Because I've
Speaker 2: got quite old gorse and boy, that warms the house.
Speaker 2: That's unbelievable.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I'd play lucky you, but I'd be.
Speaker 2: No, because I've got to cut I've got to cut
Speaker 2: it all down. It's horrible when you get those prickles.
Speaker 2: It goes through the glove and down between your fingernail
Speaker 2: and your finger. That's horrible.
Speaker 9: Anyway, Anyway, we digress. I was calling out to talk
Speaker 9: about electricity prices in what your thoughts are and what
Speaker 9: the listener's thoughts are for the upcoming winter and this
Speaker 9: whole blackout sort of warning that they're talking about. Is
Speaker 9: are they well like it was last year? Because I
Speaker 9: know power prices have gone up. They jumped up significantly recently,
Speaker 9: haven't they? And I know for our powerable it did anyway,
Speaker 9: And and I think over winter maybe it depends that
Speaker 9: you're with or maybe have people out there, got the
Speaker 9: best company to go with? So to avoid these figure.
Speaker 2: What about those websites. I try to get on those
Speaker 2: websites where you can check out your but it all
Speaker 2: became too complicated for me. It wasn't it said it
Speaker 2: was straight Is it called easy key we or something?
Speaker 2: It said it was straightforward? It was far from it.
Speaker 9: Yeah, it was too generic then actually make any sense
Speaker 9: to me?
Speaker 2: No, And I just wish the whole simpler, the old
Speaker 2: system was simpler. I wish there was no night fees.
Speaker 2: There was no I just wish there was no line fees.
Speaker 2: You just paid and you could actually get because I
Speaker 2: think they deliberately make it too complicated so you can't
Speaker 2: really understand.
Speaker 9: You have the line fees jumped up. That's what got meant.
Speaker 9: Because we don't use very much power at all, we're
Speaker 9: mostly on solar. What do we even bother?
Speaker 2: But that's the thing I mean, there is no good
Speaker 2: will towards the power companies when we all get on solar,
Speaker 2: which is not far away because the price is plummeting
Speaker 2: for solar panels that we're not going to even be
Speaker 2: on the grid because we don't want to get involved
Speaker 2: with them because there could be charges coming through the
Speaker 2: power lines that could destroy our system. We're going to
Speaker 2: go solar and we're going to go isolated and they
Speaker 2: can just take a hike.
Speaker 9: Yeah, Well, we're off grid our on our main home
Speaker 9: and then we've got the grid on our on our
Speaker 9: other place.
Speaker 2: How many house has you got.
Speaker 9: I've got two well, two properties.
Speaker 2: You'll be going for a helicopter pad soon.
Speaker 9: It's been talked about. No, but all built by myself
Speaker 9: or every every every piece of timber, all put up
Speaker 9: by myself. So wow, yeah, twelve years of solid work.
Speaker 2: Well, what happens is because you can if you're connected
Speaker 2: to the main grid, then you're actually vulnerable for power
Speaker 2: cuts and stuff, aren't you. That's so even though you've
Speaker 2: got batteries in there.
Speaker 9: No, if you've got a battery in the right system,
Speaker 9: you can supplement your your batteries with the grid and habit.
Speaker 2: But what if there's a power cut, then your batteries
Speaker 2: kick in and really okay because I thought that something
Speaker 2: I've got to mate that's also on the grid. But
Speaker 2: when the power cut, he was affected also, and he's
Speaker 2: quite a smart guy.
Speaker 9: It depends on your system. There's a lot of there's
Speaker 9: a lot of companies out there that will try to
Speaker 9: pull the wool over your eyes. And because like there's
Speaker 9: booming and it's a new industry kind of thing, and
Speaker 9: you go companies.
Speaker 2: Have you put a wind generator up as well?
Speaker 9: Oh, we tried that, but we're super windy where we are,
Speaker 9: and we tried two different ones and they both bleue
Speaker 9: to pieces.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm gonna run luke bit nice to hear from you.
Speaker 2: So look, there is rugby league on however, it's Newcastle
Speaker 2: versus Paramatt and there's another second game on tonight to
Speaker 2: Super Friday. But it's also on sky Open. And because
Speaker 2: it's on sky Open, Sky opens also playing commercials. So
Speaker 2: as you watch the match on sky Open, you will
Speaker 2: fall behind on the score, and out of respect for that,
Speaker 2: I won't give you updates. So that's what's happening tonight.
Speaker 2: I'll give you the results at the end of it.
Speaker 2: But it is on sky Open. If you want to
Speaker 2: go and watch it.
Speaker 4: Head.
Speaker 2: My name is Marcus Welk. The numbers oh, eight hundred
Speaker 2: and eight. Thanks for the text about that too. By
Speaker 2: the way, I'm not going to tell you about it.
Speaker 2: Colby mild one kg, cheese block seven ninety nine peck
Speaker 2: and save Silverdale today Marcus, I eyighty seven. But when
Speaker 2: I was about twelve, I would use our farm draft
Speaker 2: horse to pull myrie stumps out of a swamp, cut
Speaker 2: them up for firewood burns even wet like mad top
Speaker 2: of wood field glow that's from nol. What are disgrace
Speaker 2: hurricanes wearing blue? Thank you for that? Do you know
Speaker 2: what caused the blackout? Last Nut and Tiata to south. Also,
Speaker 2: we're sitting here playing last card while listening to you
Speaker 2: your show regards, Monty Marcus. Please ask the listeners if
Speaker 2: they have a landline. ID asked me if my landline
Speaker 2: number still exists. Why what would they want to know
Speaker 2: about that? I suppose they won't know if they can
Speaker 2: bring you on it? Would they do? Knowly people when
Speaker 2: they ask questions, I don't tell the reason for the questions.
Speaker 2: But again, touch anything goes tonight. It's a Friday. It's
Speaker 2: the Friday free for all the numbers eight hundred and eighty,
Speaker 2: ten eighty and nine to nine two to text. The
Speaker 2: other thing that I thought was of a little bit
Speaker 2: of interest tonight, and I'll just bring up that article.
Speaker 2: I saved that a little bit earlier. Cats yep, for
Speaker 2: a discussion about cats. I'm not saying bang cats because
Speaker 2: I know that people get triggered by that. I've since
Speaker 2: spent some time today reading about toxo plaz moss, which
Speaker 2: you can get from a cat, and it says ten
Speaker 2: thousand New Zealanders may have lost vision due to toxo players.
Speaker 2: Most the paras height spread by cat excreeter affects one
Speaker 2: in three people during their lifetime. It affects the sight
Speaker 2: of forty thousand New Zealanders. I just wonder if you've
Speaker 2: had that, and if it changed the way you look
Speaker 2: at your cat. You might want to come on about
Speaker 2: taxaplosmosis and what you caught from. I know it's kind
Speaker 2: of a fity serious topic, but it's probably one that
Speaker 2: we should talk about because you can get the parasite,
Speaker 2: it can lay dormant in your body for a long
Speaker 2: long time, then you can actually get sick from it.
Speaker 2: I wonder how many people have got toxoplasmosis from the
Speaker 2: kindergarten sand pit that became the cat litertay. But yeah,
Speaker 2: it freaks you out. But I wonder if anyone who's
Speaker 2: actually experienced that. Ten thousand people may have lost their
Speaker 2: vision due to toxo plasmosis. I don't know why I'd
Speaker 2: end up with your eyes ah, but it must be
Speaker 2: parasites get in there. I don't know if you can
Speaker 2: ever get rid of the parasites, but it freaks me
Speaker 2: out anyway, that's something we I want to talk about
Speaker 2: as well tonight too, So get in touch anythings on
Speaker 2: the board tonight, looking forward to what you've got to say.
Speaker 2: As I say, oh eight hundred eighty eight and nine
Speaker 2: to text. Keep those emails coming through to people whove
Speaker 2: got something to cheer me up with. Be good to
Speaker 2: hear from you. Some of the special days today, International
Speaker 2: Invention Day, Bike to Workday, lover a tree Day, work
Speaker 2: from home day, although they put the kaiboh on that,
Speaker 2: and see Monkey Day. Yeah, maybe some people have gone
Speaker 2: to see Mission Impossible today? Is that what it was called?
Speaker 2: We've got the name right, did you go? Was it
Speaker 2: any good? Or was it terrible? The reviews aren't great,
Speaker 2: but that's probably not what people go for the reviews.
Speaker 2: I think people go for the experience and the sense
Speaker 2: of wonder. So yes, there might be a question you've
Speaker 2: got tonight. Also, I feel like I'm in an answering
Speaker 2: question type frame of mind. Marc is talking about cats.
Speaker 2: We have a new celebrity cat and upper Hut. He's
Speaker 2: a wanderer. He has a Facebook page, Storm the Trooper.
Speaker 2: He visits the gym, the pitt shop, the dentist in
Speaker 2: the supermarket. Marc is a friend's baby boy was born
Speaker 2: blind in one eye due to his mother contracting toxoplasmosis
Speaker 2: while pregnant.
Speaker 8: There you go.
Speaker 2: Ten thousand can take a while to kixart and that's fine.
Speaker 2: By the way, it was pink shirt day today. A
Speaker 2: lot of you would have been doing the frantic look
Speaker 2: for a picture last night to seend the child to school.
Speaker 2: And yeah, it all seems like a very good idea.
Speaker 2: It doesn't until it falls on the parent. But oh well,
Speaker 2: I guess that's what parenting a school aged child is about. Panic. Oh,
Speaker 2: by the way, while we are on school, while we
Speaker 2: are on school type things, I meant to ask this
Speaker 2: last night, but we got caught umputer. Once in a while,
Speaker 2: schools will ask for parents or families to host oversee
Speaker 2: students for several weeks. Now, you don't do it for
Speaker 2: the money.
Speaker 5: You do it for the.
Speaker 2: Giggles and the sense of making the globes smaller and
Speaker 2: exposing your children to different ways of thinking and living.
Speaker 2: How'd that work out for you?
Speaker 3: Did you do it?
Speaker 2: Did you bullet people from overseas? And how bad did
Speaker 2: it go? I presume normally it goes very very well,
Speaker 2: because the normally the will behave children. Will that be right?
Speaker 2: So I put that there is something you might wondering
Speaker 2: and talk about. Also tonight, bulleting people from overseas. I'm
Speaker 2: sure a lot of you have done it with varying satisfactions. Now, Gavin,
Speaker 2: it's Marcus. Welcome and good evening.

Speaker 13: talking to a friend and I just don't know if
Speaker 13: you know this, but perhaps she could someone would ring in.
Speaker 13: You know, when they had stats for how many people
Speaker 13: watched something on per TV, how do they know? How
Speaker 13: do how do they actually know how many people are
Speaker 13: watching a certain program? Okay, if you understand what I'm meaning,
Speaker 13: you know how they installed them.
Speaker 2: Like, do you want me to answer? Yeah, there's a
Speaker 2: company and they do it and they go to random
Speaker 2: people's houses and they put people meters on those houses
Speaker 2: so that monitors when they are watching TV and they
Speaker 2: need to input how many people are sitting watching it. Oh,
Speaker 2: and there's about twelve hundred houses that are involved with
Speaker 2: people metters, and I think they get given product as
Speaker 2: well to thank them for their partaking in the survey.
Speaker 14: Ah.
Speaker 13: Really, Oh god, it's amazing to think it's just judged
Speaker 13: on those It's like a census, in other words, a
Speaker 13: selection of people that.
Speaker 2: They No, it's not like a census, it's like a survey,
Speaker 2: but it'll be statistically correct. They will have chosen a
Speaker 2: big enough sample that the results would be very indicative
Speaker 2: of how many people are watching.
Speaker 13: Ah right, okay, great.
Speaker 2: Do you think some of it's wrong?
Speaker 13: No, I guess we've all got biased for some things.
Speaker 13: I'll just was talking to a couple of ladies last
Speaker 13: night and we're out and we're we all love netball
Speaker 13: and we've seen that Sky is not going to cover
Speaker 13: much of it, and neither is TB two. I don't
Speaker 13: think next year that the netball have not got it
Speaker 13: signed off yet and I just wondering. You know, this
Speaker 13: is a pop woman's spot and hello, we're not getting
Speaker 13: it on TV. I go to the games that are
Speaker 13: in Auckland, but love to see the games, and even
Speaker 13: you know, a couple of years ago we even in
Speaker 13: the Australian Games, but we get nothing.
Speaker 14: Now.
Speaker 2: I think it's a dying game, Petty.
Speaker 13: Netball as opposed to all a big statement, well.
Speaker 2: Covering it no, and.
Speaker 13: Well it'll die further, you know, do you I think
Speaker 13: I guess.
Speaker 2: Confusing during we joined the trans Tasmin Cup, then we
Speaker 2: couldn't just people got confused. It chopped and changed too much. Yeah, anyway,
Speaker 2: we'll talk more about it after the news, Patty, But
Speaker 2: thank you. We're talking about billeting students, Marcus. I've had
Speaker 2: about ten international students of the years, and all except
Speaker 2: one from South Korea have enriched our family life, especially
Speaker 2: my youngest who was who has four much older siblings.
Speaker 2: I particularly enjoyed those from Japan and some have come
Speaker 2: back and stayed as adults. Regarding toc so two, we
Speaker 2: have had two kittens with Kotchita and as I am
Speaker 2: ono suppression, my doctor sent me a blood test which
Speaker 2: showed I had been in contact with it sometime. Coming
Speaker 2: from a rural background, she decided. My mother had Japanese
Speaker 2: students since seventy four. They came in groups to learn
Speaker 2: English by immersion, which is not like baptism. I don't
Speaker 2: think one girl that stayed with us. We had a
Speaker 2: boy for another group, and they went on to marry,
Speaker 2: came back to New Zealand and opened a chain of
Speaker 2: Japanese restaurants. They still come to stay with me. One
Speaker 2: went on to have about forty five students and went
Speaker 2: to Japan ourself seven times and stayed with their families.
Speaker 2: They became a part of our lives. Billeting. I don't
Speaker 2: like the word, although no one seems to like the word,
Speaker 2: because a lot of texts have said bulleting or bullets
Speaker 2: about bullets thing, what's that about? But yeah, everyone's a
Speaker 2: spinning expert these days, aren't they. I'm not kidding here.
Speaker 2: My partner used to bullet kids. That's right, that's the
Speaker 2: one that found the cupboard full of urine. Yeah, Marcus,
Speaker 2: wouldn't that but a raffle breach gaming laws. I thought
Speaker 2: any money has received of a certain amount had to
Speaker 2: be drawn under police supervision. I think once you get
Speaker 2: to that stage in life when you're fundraising for your kids,
Speaker 2: they don't worry about laws. Down South, there's always a
Speaker 2: big thing called scratchy boards, and they look sketchy as
Speaker 2: all get out. It's like a bit of cardboard with
Speaker 2: a few scratches and a twenty buck note. I think
Speaker 2: you pay five bucks and they put your name on
Speaker 2: it and then you can draw it, you know, with
Speaker 2: all these stupid scratches you got to scratch. But I'd
Speaker 2: much rather have the butter one. Yeah, so forty tickets.
Speaker 2: I think it's twenty bucks each. Twenty bucks each. You
Speaker 2: buy four hundred worth of butter from Costcos as the
Speaker 2: prize on the bonus number the raffler pockets four hundred.
Speaker 2: I don't know where Costco is getting their butter. I
Speaker 2: think it's might be from Denmark. I've still never been
Speaker 2: to Costco. By sense that's about to change. I'm gonna
Speaker 2: go to Auckland with a chili bin. No I'm not. Actually,
Speaker 2: I've got no desire for butter. By the way, I
Speaker 2: don't know what Paddy, old Crappy Patty was on about
Speaker 2: the nettles on the TV now I always loved when
Speaker 2: they say me and some of the girlfriends whore talking
Speaker 2: them out here we go cooked up a conspiracy. Marcus
Speaker 2: Kirkland is the Costco house brand. West and Milk did
Speaker 2: have this contract for two years and may still have it. Hilarious.
Speaker 2: The Kirkland butter is sourced from Westland Milk Products based
Speaker 2: in Hoka. Ticker probably comes up by train. That's the
Speaker 2: most exciting thing about it. They'd put on the Hoka
Speaker 2: ticker train would go to christ Church, then they put
Speaker 2: on the train up to Auckland. I don't know if
Speaker 2: Costco has its own railway siding.
Speaker 5: Does it?
Speaker 2: Can't wait to go there. I can't wait. I'm gonna
Speaker 2: sign up and everything. I think that there was some
Speaker 2: fact about Costco sells like half the world's cash you nuts.
Speaker 2: You ever seen that stead? Why is that another chase? Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's right, So almost all the fifty percent of the
Speaker 2: world's cash you nuts get sold at Costco. I think
Speaker 2: that's true, but get in touch of your talk. My
Speaker 2: name is Marcus. Welcome eight hundred and eighty ten eighty
Speaker 2: surely yeah, percentage of nuts, cash you nuts, half the
Speaker 2: world's cashees are sold at Costco. I don't know why
Speaker 2: three point five eight metric tons, So that's of interest
Speaker 2: to me as I say, oh oh, by the way,
Speaker 2: Peck and say PUKAKOHI has removed all the pems but
Speaker 2: are placing them with rolling meadow butter for over eight
Speaker 2: dollars a block. Maybe pems have run out, maybe pains
Speaker 2: has all gone to Costco. In Neil Marcus, welcome.
Speaker 4: Good evening, Marcus. You invited us to talk about something different.
Speaker 4: Thank you, sir. We're very elderly Mam and I. We're
Speaker 4: not rich, but we had a have a nest egg
Speaker 4: and so we want to get a bit of interest
Speaker 4: from it. Nothing much. So we've decided to install twenty
Speaker 4: two solar panels, which will just about I mean, we
Speaker 4: don't use the grid. Is that our wise decision? Do
Speaker 4: you think, Marcus?
Speaker 2: How much are they costing?
Speaker 4: Twenty twenty twenty four thousand?
Speaker 2: Jan but that Marcus, hang on, who's who's installing them
Speaker 2: for you?
Speaker 4: Harrison's okay, sure.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, because it's surprising you've agreed to do it.
Speaker 2: Then you're asking me now if it's worthwhile? Well, I
Speaker 2: think I think Harrisons could probably tell you how many
Speaker 2: years it will take you for it to pay off.
Speaker 2: Have they told you they're it?
Speaker 4: They have a Marcus. But in our case, in our eighties,
Speaker 4: we don't feel it's relevant. We just have money sitting
Speaker 4: there doing nothing, and so we thought we may as
Speaker 4: well spend it and not pay electricity from the grid.
Speaker 4: That's what I was interested in your opinion.
Speaker 2: On I would understand and say, would tell me I
Speaker 2: would have thought that it would take you twenty years
Speaker 2: to pay that off?
Speaker 4: Yeah, well I won't be here, no so, but but
Speaker 4: that what to me?
Speaker 2: Wouldn't that would indicate that that's not a good investment.
Speaker 4: But can I just inter another time limited?
Speaker 2: No, it's not. I'm just I just I just I
Speaker 2: just want to get to the nuts of what you're asking.
Speaker 4: Really later, I'll try very man.
Speaker 5: I'm old.
Speaker 4: The fact that it takes twenty years is not really
Speaker 4: relevant to Mam and I because we just had that money.
Speaker 4: You sat doing nothing and will die with it doing nothing,
Speaker 4: So we thought we might as well use it and
Speaker 4: get rid of the grid. I know, from an accountant's
Speaker 4: point of view, it's maybe not a good idea, but
Speaker 4: we think it's a good idea for us.
Speaker 2: Well, I guess that's the other thing that maybe we
Speaker 2: can ask is doesn't increase the value of your house?
Speaker 2: I mean, obvio, see that's not of interest to you?
Speaker 2: Is that who inherits the house?
Speaker 4: Our daughter?
Speaker 5: And does she?
Speaker 2: Does she want to live in that house?
Speaker 5: You'd love to?
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, that's nice because it means that she's off
Speaker 2: the grid as well, doesn't it, Yes, sir, yeah, that
Speaker 2: makes sense to me. No, I think I think a
Speaker 2: quick look at Google said that takes nine years to
Speaker 2: pay off savings will be seven to nine years to
Speaker 2: be paid off. So then too, once your daughter's near
Speaker 2: her powers for free.
Speaker 4: Marcus, I'm laughing at you because Google is a completely
Speaker 4: mystery to me.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's hear from Neil. Thank you? Sevening past nine
Speaker 2: and getting touchy on a talk anyone who's got the
Speaker 2: advice for I can't really give financial advice. I think
Speaker 2: we're forbidden to. We want to talk about Neil and
Speaker 2: sohla Marcus. I don't watch a lot of TV. There's
Speaker 2: nothing much that deals appeals to me. But because I've
Speaker 2: been on well over the last week, I've tried watching
Speaker 2: some of the programs like The Chase and deal and odeal.
Speaker 2: But they play the same episode two nights in a row,
Speaker 2: do they.
Speaker 5: Do?
Speaker 2: They normally would, so I might have some information on that.
Speaker 2: Marcus Costco introduced the costcos The Costco introduced the Kirkland
Speaker 2: signature label in nineteen ninety five, naming the brand after
Speaker 2: its original headquarters in Kirkland, Washington, about twenty minutes outside
Speaker 2: the heart of Seattle. In the twenty years since, Costco
Speaker 2: has expanded the label to include hundreds of items throughout
Speaker 2: its warehouses. There we go, just like that. Welcome people,
Speaker 2: My name is Marcus. Here to the end, solar, cashew nuts, billets.
Speaker 2: Too many topics, That's all right, I will soldier on people.
Speaker 2: There's something else you want to mention eight hundred and
Speaker 2: eighty ten eighty also tonight mentioning Yeah, oh yeah, I.
Speaker 11: M hm.
Speaker 2: I mean Soul is going to get cheaper and cheaper,
Speaker 2: isn't it. I'm just not quite sure why. Yeah, Harrison
Speaker 2: used to be the Carpetstad are doing solar, aren't they.
Speaker 2: I think they're prety reputable, aren't they?
Speaker 5: Good?
Speaker 2: Inning, Edam, it's Marcus. Welcome, Hi Adam?
Speaker 10: Are you asking about exchange students? So want to give
Speaker 10: you a call on driving.
Speaker 2: Yes, thank you.
Speaker 10: Don't know what we're doing an act. But we had
Speaker 10: an exchange student last year for about most of the
Speaker 10: year from from Germany.
Speaker 14: Wow yep, And.
Speaker 10: There was the first time that we ever have done
Speaker 10: that and we can't sort see how this goes. And anyway,
Speaker 10: she arrived. She was fifteen years old and she's pretty shy.
Speaker 10: And the main reason we got her is because going
Speaker 10: to get one daughter left at home who's sixteen, and
Speaker 10: we had a keeper company.
Speaker 11: And so.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I think he's gonna wondering what you want to
Speaker 10: know about them?
Speaker 2: Really, the years quite a long time, isn't it.
Speaker 10: Yeah, well, well we went quite so long to say
Speaker 10: if it's just a term, and we got along pretty well.
Speaker 10: And after about it was getting it into the term,
Speaker 10: she came to me, Adam, I liked the school I met,
Speaker 10: and I like the family, and I was going, you,
Speaker 10: you're talking to the family, and she should take it
Speaker 10: up to stay longer. And so she stayed another term
Speaker 10: and then she ended up staying in another term after that.
Speaker 10: And it's really kind of it's for our family, I mean,
Speaker 10: another person in the house. Actually, we really enjoyed it.
Speaker 3: What was it for her?
Speaker 2: And it was it all about learning English for her?
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean that's it, and you're a little bit
Speaker 10: about that, but it it is to learn English is
Speaker 10: quite good. And I think most of the Germans are
Speaker 10: quite good at English anyway. I think they're better than
Speaker 10: what they think.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so.
Speaker 10: Obviously there's I think for them it's kind of like
Speaker 10: a right passage and they kind of just get some
Speaker 10: might experience as well.
Speaker 2: Was she consume that she was she concerned that she
Speaker 2: was missing anything academic from her own school?
Speaker 10: Yeah, she wasn't. I think some of them are, but
Speaker 10: she will. And she said, I don't even care if
Speaker 10: I stay here and I get behind oldest to another
Speaker 10: year of school back in Germany. She didn't think too
Speaker 10: concerned about that.
Speaker 2: She seems quite sensible and quite chilled out for a German.
Speaker 10: I think we've got a good one. Yeah, she was
Speaker 10: definitely did. She doesn't indicate a bit more of a.
Speaker 9: KYI of o here.
Speaker 2: Long? How long has he been back for? How long
Speaker 2: has he been back in Germany? For a presum this
Speaker 2: was last year?
Speaker 5: Was it?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 10: Well, the thing is she didn't want to leave, and
Speaker 10: I think if we heard this happens with quite a
Speaker 10: few of them like she is. She was loving it
Speaker 10: really and year she said she didn't want to leave.
Speaker 10: She's going, oh, I don't want to leave. And I
Speaker 10: mean it was nice to us as a compliment for us,
Speaker 10: I guess, but we were we were worried that she'd
Speaker 10: pretend to get on the plane right back at the
Speaker 10: front door.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think she got she did they come Do
Speaker 2: you think they come from unhappy families or yeah?
Speaker 10: Well that was one of the things we were wondering about,
Speaker 10: but absolutely not for her. Now she's in there quite
Speaker 10: a normal family. We spoke to the mother quite a bit. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 10: it's just it's just saying it's always good thing to do.
Speaker 2: Did she get up with your daughter?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 10: I think that's probably what I worked out. My daughter
Speaker 10: was six sixteen and she was fifteen, And it worked
Speaker 10: out because one night when there was only a couple
Speaker 10: of weeks after for she to ride, and I said, oh,
Speaker 10: I'll give her a nice dessert. She was watching TV
Speaker 10: in the other room, and so I went in with
Speaker 10: an apple pie that I cooked up. I said, oh,
Speaker 10: this would be nice, and then I put some some
Speaker 10: ice cream on it.
Speaker 5: It was.
Speaker 10: It was like orange chocolate chip ice cream. I said, oh,
Speaker 10: you know, my daughter loves that. I'll give it anyway.
Speaker 10: She just came along. Story short, she didn't like apple pie.
Speaker 10: She hates it, and she freaked out and she saw
Speaker 10: that orange chopped your by stream. She was the weirdest
Speaker 10: thing ever. And then so she didn't know to ft
Speaker 10: really bad. And then my daughter went in to sort
Speaker 10: of see her, and she explained once like I already
Speaker 10: had his mother's took this for me and they started
Speaker 10: laughing and laughing the heads off because they didn't then
Speaker 10: you didn't know what to show to me. And I
Speaker 10: think after that it got a really well and so
Speaker 10: you know, it's one of those strange things that that
Speaker 10: kind of just they got on.
Speaker 2: And yeah, it has your daughter gone to Germany to
Speaker 2: see her.
Speaker 10: Now, I think my daughter would like to. She's sitting
Speaker 10: like you in the plane incidentally that she like going
Speaker 10: on airplanes and so going away weird, but she.
Speaker 5: Can't see your.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's a good story, Daedim, thank you. I
Speaker 2: like the way you told it to I like you.
Speaker 5: I like you.
Speaker 2: I like your delivery. You got a good delivery style,
Speaker 2: quite deed pen I thought there for a while that
Speaker 2: was there was gonna be it was, it was gonna
Speaker 2: be like a shaggy dog story. I liked it a
Speaker 2: lot anyway, with the ice cream, Thank you very much.
Speaker 2: Get in touch by him as Marcus. Welcome, well, welcome, welcome.
Speaker 2: Someone said he doesn't need twenty two solar panels. I
Speaker 2: hate to say it, but I think they look TEARI
Speaker 2: all on the roof of the house. But i'd be
Speaker 2: worried in the wind and bluff tell you're worried that
Speaker 2: you'd lose them into the tide. And there is quite Oh,
Speaker 2: by the way, don't get me going. I've got a
Speaker 2: stupid solar. I've got a solar electric fence in it,
Speaker 2: and boy I had troubles with that today. Flip did
Speaker 2: me headen with my fault find are up and down
Speaker 2: cheap as creepers? Because I was so confident it was
Speaker 2: all going to work. Put the sheep in a new paddock.
Speaker 2: The thrupp all no good. The Eurovision Song Contests this weekend.
Speaker 2: Most of the songs you won't know apart from well
Speaker 2: people that have won it. The who knows, I don't know,
Speaker 2: who knows? How much you know about Eurovision. I know
Speaker 2: very little. All I know is ABBA one year and
Speaker 2: Buckfir's won at one year and Sandy Sure won a
Speaker 2: one year. But every year there's much hype about it.
Speaker 2: And that's on this weekend, so if you want to
Speaker 2: talk about that, then that's good. It's on Saturday. I
Speaker 2: don't know how you can watch it. I've never seen
Speaker 2: a second of it, but yeah, that's happening. Ireland's waned
Speaker 2: a lot, and I think Sweden's wonted a lot. But
Speaker 2: I think it's the most watched TV E endeavor in Europe.
Speaker 2: But that's on this weekend if you want to discuss that.
Speaker 2: Sandy Shaw won it very early on with Puppet on
Speaker 2: a String. Also to Celine Dion has won it with
Speaker 2: so Moi. She's winning it for Switzerland, but that feels
Speaker 2: like hours ago. I've also gone on about the costco
Speaker 2: butter raffles, which does fascinate me. We're talking about having
Speaker 2: overseas students come to stay and what that's done for
Speaker 2: your family. Yeah, we're in the application process, got to
Speaker 2: get police checked, which should not be a problem. If well.
Speaker 2: I good evening, Bob, It's Marcus welcome.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Marcus I just thought i'd bring up because a
Speaker 4: lot of people, you know, are down or on a
Speaker 4: house system. I had to go up to the Glenham
Speaker 4: Hospital the other day and I got seen straight away.
Speaker 4: The service was excellent. They gave me a hold of
Speaker 4: a medication to take after which which I didn't have
Speaker 4: to pay a cent for. I just wanted to say
Speaker 4: that I thought that the hospital system was working well,
Speaker 4: well it would well for me.
Speaker 2: Anyway, right experience w R I K yeah ye, and I.
Speaker 4: Had a woosdom tooth. It was giving me problems, just blood.
Speaker 4: What did they do they running out?
Speaker 2: Did they rip it out?
Speaker 5: Oh? No, they gave me well.
Speaker 4: I went to a dentist or just short story. I
Speaker 4: went to a dentist and I won't mention the name
Speaker 4: someone here, and he said, you've got an absence. We
Speaker 4: can't do anything about it till we get the abscess done.
Speaker 4: Blah blah blah blah. Go home and drink some water.
Speaker 4: While I drank about fifty liters of water and it
Speaker 4: was still affecting me. So I ended up taking myself
Speaker 4: up to the hospital where they gave me morphine three
Speaker 4: injections and goodness knows what because the pain just wasn't
Speaker 4: going away.
Speaker 2: Why didn't the dentists do that?
Speaker 4: Because the dentersy couldn't do anything about it until the
Speaker 4: absys had gone down. But he gave me all these
Speaker 4: He gave me the medication to take when I've taken them,
Speaker 4: and I decided, well, it's been four or five days now,
Speaker 4: so I didn't take any last night because I thought
Speaker 4: a lot of the abscesst thing will be gone my now, surely,
Speaker 4: But no, I got the same result. So I'm going
Speaker 4: to get it out next week. I thought that the
Speaker 4: surface had got up there. Everyone runs down the health service,
Speaker 4: but they couldn't have been bitter.
Speaker 2: Nice to hear, Bob, and good luck with her. Keep
Speaker 2: us post about that good eating normal. It's Marcus welcome.
Speaker 15: Oh hello, Marcus. I'm very nervous. I've never rung before.
Speaker 15: But you were talking last night about the price of butter. Yes,
Speaker 15: and well, I went up to my local or worse
Speaker 15: at half past six tonight just to get a few things.
Speaker 15: And I thought, well, I had to get some butter
Speaker 15: or something, and I went and had a look and
Speaker 15: it was over eleven dollars for one little half kilo
Speaker 15: of butter. Over eleven dollars. I couldn't believe it. It
Speaker 15: was just on twenty three dollars for a kilo.
Speaker 2: And you must have thought yourself, well, that's what they're
Speaker 2: talking about on the radio last night.
Speaker 15: Yes, well, I listened to you every night, and.
Speaker 14: I did.
Speaker 15: But I couldn't believe dollars.
Speaker 2: Because I think most of us have just used to
Speaker 2: checking butter in the old shopping no matter what, we've
Speaker 2: never thought about the price. Yeah, well about three or four,
Speaker 2: two or three dollars.
Speaker 15: The last lot I bought, I bought it at Christmas
Speaker 15: with my Christmas Club and I think I paid just
Speaker 15: a little over five dollars and it was PAMs. But
Speaker 15: it's all made the same place. Yes, but of course
Speaker 15: I've just run out, so I thought, well, well i'd
Speaker 15: better get some and needless to say, I won't be
Speaker 15: eating butter.
Speaker 2: And any Moore Helen. Will that last you? Norma? Do
Speaker 2: you bake?
Speaker 7: Yes?
Speaker 5: I do.
Speaker 15: I bake quite a lot. I found that. Well, I
Speaker 15: won't be putting butter in my baking. I'll have to
Speaker 15: try some sort of margarine.
Speaker 9: I suppose nice to.
Speaker 2: Hear from your Norma. Thank you for calling. He did
Speaker 2: very well and I appreciate it. Nineteen to ten.
Speaker 5: Hello, Todd, I'll get a mark.
Speaker 9: I tell you good.
Speaker 2: Todd.
Speaker 3: I hate saying that I haven't spoken to you for
Speaker 3: a while, but yeah, I've spoke to you a few
Speaker 3: years ago. But anyway, I've just recently returned to China.
Speaker 2: To be fair, Todd, I'm not the sort of guy
Speaker 2: that's gonna say, oh, well, I'm not that good. I'm struggling.
Speaker 2: I'm struggling with my home life and the kids are
Speaker 2: out of control, and you know, but oh, I know,
Speaker 2: I normally traveled along pretty well. But anyway, thanks for
Speaker 2: asking it.
Speaker 3: Anyway, I love listening to you, and we've had a
Speaker 3: great conversations about bloody ducks and drain pipes and the
Speaker 3: fire stations and stuff before. But anyway, I've just recently
Speaker 3: returned from China, and I'm talking about the Keshu nuts.
Speaker 3: So I don't know if you know that craft beer
Speaker 3: is really taking off in China.
Speaker 2: You did, is that where you were there? No?
Speaker 5: I went.
Speaker 3: I took my son, who was turning twenty one, and
Speaker 3: I said to him, where do you want to go?
Speaker 3: He didn't want to party, so I said, he's my
Speaker 3: middle son. And I said, I've taken the other brother
Speaker 3: and I've got another one to do. But I said,
Speaker 3: wherever you want to go, we'll go. He said, we'll
Speaker 3: go to Hong Kong, and then I want to go
Speaker 3: to China and Vietnam. So I took him to China
Speaker 3: for a couple of weeks to visit some friends there,
Speaker 3: and we went to southern China and Ning and anyway,
Speaker 3: at ten o'clock at night, it's thinking hot and you
Speaker 3: want to go and have a beer. This school kids
Speaker 3: still running around. It's unbelievable. It's just such a modern place.
Speaker 3: You go to a place and they've got Kraft beer
Speaker 3: from all around the world. But when you order a
Speaker 3: pint of beer, you either get a plate of cashew
Speaker 3: nuts or something our seed or some other sort of nut. Anyway,
Speaker 3: the Casho nuts, they're so big and tasty there. You
Speaker 3: must eat a kilo at night. I don't know. I mean,
Speaker 3: I can't believe that China isn't the biggest eater of
Speaker 3: kesh you nuts, because, oh my god, every night it
Speaker 3: was just a big bowl of kesh nuts because they're
Speaker 3: in front of you and you're playing like two dollars
Speaker 3: New Zealand for a pint of craft. You just eat
Speaker 3: the keshing nuts in front of you are so fantastic.
Speaker 3: You just.
Speaker 2: And lightly roasted.
Speaker 3: No, they've even got a bit of a brown skin
Speaker 3: on them. They haven't even been processed. They're like raw
Speaker 3: kesh and nuts have still got the husk shell on them.
Speaker 3: Like the peanuts that you get have got the shell
Speaker 3: on them, but the kesh you nuts have got this
Speaker 3: like a brown thin skin on them, and they're just
Speaker 3: absolutely gorgeous. I I reckon I put a kilo on
Speaker 3: just eating kesh you nuts and him you would have.
Speaker 3: Oh fantastic. It's the place to go. I never thought
Speaker 3: I would go there, but oh my god, I went
Speaker 3: to a place called Men.
Speaker 2: Did anyone anyone get drunk?
Speaker 3: I yeah, they Well the bar didn't opened all eight
Speaker 3: o'clock at night, and it's opened all six in the morning,
Speaker 3: and it's like it's still skids running around at midnight
Speaker 3: Chinese time. And then they were all off the school
Speaker 3: at seven thirty in the morning. But it's just so
Speaker 3: they're out playing badminton on the street. They're out, they're like,
Speaker 3: there's that's not a problem for them, And it's like
Speaker 3: a real culture shop for twenty one year old son.
Speaker 3: I think he were talking about it for the rest
Speaker 3: of his life. I don't think he's ever been and
Speaker 3: I've been around about fifty countries around the world and
Speaker 3: did my ie in the nineties. But he just couldn't
Speaker 3: believe it, and I couldn't believe it myself.
Speaker 2: Why did you choose then, King?
Speaker 3: I could have had a friend that's got a Chinese
Speaker 3: wife from christ Church and he said, come over. So
Speaker 3: we went over and oh my god, talk about hosts.
Speaker 3: You couldn't get better hosts. Say the woman there retire
Speaker 3: when they're fifty, they get the pension, but the men
Speaker 3: can't retire till the sixty seven. But everybody in China
Speaker 3: was happy. They were all happy. I can't believe it.
Speaker 3: I just thought it was such a great place.
Speaker 5: To go with it.
Speaker 2: What's your mate doing? Is he retired?
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's older, he's older and his wife about my
Speaker 3: age and he's about ten years older than me. But yeah,
Speaker 3: he's got he's still got a business in christ Church
Speaker 3: that he has kids run. He just probably clicks a dissy,
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: But what's he do all day?
Speaker 3: Todd? Oh, that's the thing. I think they're just eating sweat.
Speaker 3: It's pretty sticky. It's pretty hot and sticky. It's close
Speaker 3: to the Vietnam border, so it's pretty tropical.
Speaker 2: Really nice to hear from it, Tod. What a great call.
Speaker 2: A little bit head it all the nuts, the picture?
Speaker 2: What bit? What craft beer would you drink?
Speaker 9: Todd?
Speaker 4: Ah, it was cooled.
Speaker 3: I can't remember what was called now it was called
Speaker 3: number sixteen or if Yeah, they didn't speak much English,
Speaker 3: but yeah, they had appointed the stick and you go, yes.
Speaker 5: That one.
Speaker 3: But yeah, when around the beer's costure like nine dollars
Speaker 3: New Zealand then you're just out there in the tropical
Speaker 3: heat at nighttime and it's not even for them. But
Speaker 3: we you know, this is only a month ago. I
Speaker 3: was there, not even there. I was there about three
Speaker 3: weeks ago. It's still it's very nice.
Speaker 2: Nice to hear. Thanks Todd. I wasn't quite sure if
Speaker 2: he was right about cashes, but then I googled it
Speaker 2: and says cashes are a popular snack to enjoy with
Speaker 2: beer in China. They offered tenas find slightly sweet and
Speaker 2: nutty flavor that complements various beer styles they've ever seen.
Speaker 2: Cashess a bar snack peanuts. Yes, what about that bougia
Speaker 2: mix or something. Marcus, it's not worth elderly people getting
Speaker 2: solar panels installed, as the power bill is usually very small.
Speaker 2: I looked into it. My monthly bills around one hundred.
Speaker 2: To make sole economical, people need to be using a
Speaker 2: large amount of electricity. I didn't hear all of Neil's
Speaker 2: corbetam considered getting advice. Thank you. Honestly, Eurovision is worth
Speaker 2: a watch. It's an amazing broadcasting and staging spectacle. It
Speaker 2: makes the Super Bowl halftime show look like local theater.
Speaker 2: My question was where would you watch it? Is it
Speaker 2: on like rialto or one of those weird sky channels.
Speaker 2: Do you know Crusaders warrataz Saders have just scored again
Speaker 2: nineteen zero they lead. Conversion was successful nineteen zero eight
Speaker 2: Away from ten. A colleague at work was complained there
Speaker 2: about the cost of butter. She buys two coffees every day.
Speaker 2: I buy one a day from the same cafe, six
Speaker 2: dollars fifty a caps. As you're spending thirteen dollars a
Speaker 2: day on coffee. Go figure, Marcus and Sri Lank. We
Speaker 2: have a system where we can sell the electricity generator
Speaker 2: from your rooftop solar panels at the net to the
Speaker 2: national grid and you get an income. It's a good
Speaker 2: investment where it's low interest rate on your bank deposits.
Speaker 2: But I don't know how it works here though, with
Speaker 2: the amount of sunlight you can put it back through.
Speaker 2: I think it's like I think the power companies stiffier
Speaker 2: and pay the lowest rate. I think that's the way
Speaker 2: it is. I know it was always contentious. Don't quote
Speaker 2: me on that. Y solo needs to be simpler. I
Speaker 2: still think I think you still need batteries to get
Speaker 2: it to work, because obviously the sun's not gonna be
Speaker 2: out when you always need the power. I think the
Speaker 2: batteries are getting better quite quickly. Also talking about overseas
Speaker 2: students coming to stay. But this is interesting. This is
Speaker 2: a story admittedly from the Daily Mail, but since it's
Speaker 2: we are talking about solar, it does say China has
Speaker 2: secretly installed kill switch and solar panel sold to the West,
Speaker 2: which could see Beijing plunge its enemies into darkness in
Speaker 2: the event of WW three. Well, if that's what happened
Speaker 2: with my electric fence system. Although we're not in WW
Speaker 2: three yet are we. I don't know how the kill
Speaker 2: switch would work, but it'd be pretty easy to take
Speaker 2: one a part and see where it was wasn't It
Speaker 2: doesn't seem to ring true for me that story. I'll
Speaker 2: bring you more about that when I've got eight hundred
Speaker 2: and eighty nine to nine to tectail. You're going people
Speaker 2: head or midnight. If you do want to come through,
Speaker 2: do get in touch, take it quickly before the news
Speaker 2: and enjoyed. When they go about the German woman that
Speaker 2: came to stay Sarah, it's Marcus. Welcome and good evening,
Speaker 2: Hello billeting.
Speaker 11: It wasn't quite billitting. But when my son was in
Speaker 11: primary school, an international student from Korea came over with
Speaker 11: his family I think, and they made friends at school
Speaker 11: and then he went back to Korea. But my son
Speaker 11: kept in touch with him and the family contacted me,
Speaker 11: and so then he came and stayed with us for
Speaker 11: three months.
Speaker 5: Wow, that's a bit awesome.
Speaker 2: That's a big chunk of time. How old is he
Speaker 2: when he came across?
Speaker 11: Well, you know that the ages are different to olf
Speaker 11: I think around eight or nine.
Speaker 2: Mean their ages are different.
Speaker 11: Oh, because when our babies are born there you know that,
Speaker 11: you know, with the Asian culture.
Speaker 2: I think first they're on the same planet, though, so
Speaker 2: was he. He came back for three months at age
Speaker 2: eight or nine.
Speaker 11: Eight or nine. I could never quite work out whether
Speaker 11: it was eight or nine year for English. Yes, we
Speaker 11: lived in our home, went to school with my son.
Speaker 2: Didn't get homesick.
Speaker 11: No, he was wonderful. We had a great time. I
Speaker 11: would take him like he just slipped into our whole lifestyle,
Speaker 11: and I would, you know, often take him to some
Speaker 11: of those Asian stores so he could get his little
Speaker 11: treats and it's nice. And he kept in touch with
Speaker 11: his parents, and his parents kept in touch with me,
Speaker 11: and it was great. However, my sister, I know you're
Speaker 11: going to the news, but a few years later she
Speaker 11: did the same thing, got a boy from China.
Speaker 16: And it was dreadful.
Speaker 2: And that's all I'll talk about to the bad side
Speaker 2: of it. But I thank you. I appreciate that, Sarah,
Speaker 2: thank you for that. Hey, welcome guys. Just so you know,
Speaker 2: if you are keen to watch Eurovision Song Quest, I
Speaker 2: think some of you will probably love it. I don't
Speaker 2: know why that, but seems.
Speaker 5: So.
Speaker 2: It might be the thing that appeals to some of you.
Speaker 2: You can watch it on YouTube seven o'clock on Sunday morning.
Speaker 2: It's the most watch something, most watch showever in Europe
Speaker 2: or something like that. Yeah, any huge amount of hype.
Speaker 2: It seems that there's more and more build up about
Speaker 2: every year. Maybe just taking notice of it that happens
Speaker 2: Sunday morning. Anyway, Welcome. My name is Marcus. I hope
Speaker 2: it's good. I hope it's good where you are. I
Speaker 2: hope you're good. That's what I mean to say. A
Speaker 2: little bit of talk on toxoplasmosis, not much, A little
Speaker 2: bit some on the euro Vision not a lot. We're
Speaker 2: talking about having overseas students come and stay, and solar
Speaker 2: panels and the cost Co butter raffle. Well, you pay
Speaker 2: eight hundred bucks, sorry, you pay forty people pay twenty bucks.
Speaker 2: Someone buys four hundred bucks of butter and you win
Speaker 2: it if your number comes up on the lotto. So
Speaker 2: simple and so seductive. Imagine that winning four hundred dollars
Speaker 2: worth of butter. Oh yeah, one of the great fundraisers
Speaker 2: of all time. Although they think probably that Costco has
Speaker 2: run out of Kirkland butter because everyone's doing it. For
Speaker 2: these schemes. Thirteen past ten. Good evening, Ricketts Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 2: So you're so it was twelve grand to get the
Speaker 2: power put on, so you're not going to do it.
Speaker 5: No, I'm not. I can build the solar system, a
Speaker 5: decent solar system for about six or seven dollars. That
Speaker 5: will do me. I'm single retirement. I get the gold

Speaker 5: expendable containers, Yes, and put one of those on. It's
Speaker 5: only me. I'm single.
Speaker 2: They expire. They expand sideways, not lengthwise, don't they.
Speaker 5: That's all one yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, So what's the point of them expanding? It's
Speaker 2: easy to shift on to your property, is it, And
Speaker 2: then you can expand them once they're there.
Speaker 5: There are twenty foot container size, yeah, bathroom and toilet,
Speaker 5: and then I've boughten prevalent. The place is all wider,
Speaker 5: and you unfold them to make them three times a
Speaker 5: size once and see it, and then the kitchen cabinets
Speaker 5: all move around into the kitchen area, and not that
Speaker 5: they're already plummed up and already wide up.
Speaker 2: So the advantages that if you decide to go somewhere else,
Speaker 2: you can move them.
Speaker 5: Yes, that's right, you can put them on trailer. You
Speaker 5: can move them swinglets all a swinglets will take away

Speaker 2: Then do I give him?
Speaker 5: They?
Speaker 2: I tell him is oh, I wasn't a panic there
Speaker 2: extends always checking things up. You should sell the fifteen acres.
Speaker 2: I reckon, who wants fifteen acres when you're in your
Speaker 2: eighties to get a helipad? I see the news. Did
Speaker 2: I've read that long article at the helipad in Sydney
Speaker 2: and in Melbourne? You can't have a helipad in an
Speaker 2: urban area. Expanders didn't. Well, I've putting only two w's.
Speaker 2: I followed my own advice.
Speaker 6: Oh.
Speaker 2: The other thing that we were kind of talking about
Speaker 2: was getting foreign students to come to learn English. How
Speaker 2: did that work out for you? What did you feed them?
Speaker 2: I think that's what people find challenging. You've got to
Speaker 2: give them sort of. I don't know what you've got
Speaker 2: to give them action, I've never done it. I'll keep
Speaker 2: you posted without how ours is going. We're getting police checked.
Speaker 2: But if we doesn't have them, that doesn't mean because
Speaker 2: we've found the police check it. This means because they
Speaker 2: were oversubscribed. Expanders does work people. I was on this
Speaker 2: website the other day. I recognized this. I didn't real
Speaker 2: understand them. You can put a balcony out the front,
Speaker 2: twenty foot expanded de lux. That'll be what I'm to
Speaker 2: getting between forty one and fifty five grand five point
Speaker 2: nine six point three two point five. That's six six
Speaker 2: thirty six seventy two squares. It's quite big for a
Speaker 2: tiny home. Marcus Cure to Marcus, when you missed the
Speaker 2: d and expanders, my heart sank in might doo. It
Speaker 2: was like nervously watching the end of a close rugby match,
Speaker 2: didn't know whether you were going to come out on
Speaker 2: top of a message going through be ironic if there
Speaker 2: was a website called dub dub dub dot x spainers. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Brucett's Marcus, good evening and welcome.
Speaker 7: Hello.
Speaker 3: You're just stalking about putting kill switchers on solar panels something.
Speaker 3: It'd be a whole lot of garbage.
Speaker 2: Bigg your pardon, because.
Speaker 3: Well you're just saying that someone said the Chinese are
Speaker 3: putting kill switchers on their soul of panels. I think
Speaker 3: it'd be a whole lot of garbage. Yeah, because the
Speaker 3: one thing is only it's the leads only one.
Speaker 2: It's the lead story on the Daily Mail tonight in
Speaker 2: big headlines. But it doesn't pass that. I think it
Speaker 2: sounds like rubbish.
Speaker 3: It's actual rubbish because there's only one electronic component on
Speaker 3: those panels, usually one, and that's a diode, a stearing
Speaker 3: diode on them. Stop them pushing power back up the panel?
Speaker 2: Have they got power? Have they got power inverters in them?
Speaker 3: No, there may be those ones, but they would be Yeah,
Speaker 3: I don't know where they. Yeah, they do make them,
Speaker 3: but I mean the but just the straight panels.
Speaker 2: No, it does say, it does say Energy official officials
Speaker 2: are assessing they're risk posed by small communication devices discovered
Speaker 2: inside power inverters, an integral component of renewable energy systems
Speaker 2: that connect them to the power grid. While inverters are
Speaker 2: built to allow remote access for updates and maintenance, the
Speaker 2: utility companies that use them typically instill firewalls to I've
Speaker 2: been direct communication back to China.
Speaker 3: Yeah. But the the other thing is that those ones
Speaker 3: with invertus on the museum vertas secret for the panel
Speaker 3: an me here.
Speaker 2: Okay, well, I've read it a bit more, but it's
Speaker 2: all on the Daily Mail. But yeah, I'm cynical too, Bruce.
Speaker 2: It sounds like China hysteria to me. But yeah, I'll
Speaker 2: try and read some more and see if I can
Speaker 2: find a more reputable website. But hey, thanks, for you,
Speaker 2: col I'm running to news catches soon, people, so that's
Speaker 2: something you want to talk about. I am here for
Speaker 2: you people, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty and nine
Speaker 2: to nine to the text. My name is Marcus, so
Speaker 2: it'd be good to hear from you. I'm here on
Speaker 2: midnight gyms from twelve, Good evening, Roberts Marcus. Welcome, Marcus.
Speaker 3: How I a you?
Speaker 9: Well?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Good ro good rob good good, goody good good.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 17: Look, hey, I'm sorry. I don't know what you've been
Speaker 17: talking about prior to me coming on here with you.
Speaker 17: But this morning, taking my little bit of a school,
Speaker 17: she sat there and said why do I like to
Speaker 17: listen to ZM? And why do you like to listen
Speaker 17: to ZB? And I said, no, she don't know. She
Speaker 17: ZB She thinks of it as talkback. She goes on
Speaker 17: about it being you know, boring blah blah blah, et cetera,
Speaker 17: et cetera, and ZM is all full of you know,
Speaker 17: little poppy music hits that she wants to hear. And
Speaker 17: I said, I actually don't know. I remember as a kid,
Speaker 17: the old radio dog used to light up when you
Speaker 17: flip the switch, having z B ZM z whatever it
Speaker 17: might have been.
Speaker 5: Is there any history to that?
Speaker 2: Do you know history to what? Sorry?
Speaker 17: So you know how we refer to the station you're
Speaker 17: on as z B.
Speaker 2: Oh yep, yep, yep, yep. So the call side, yeah.
Speaker 17: And she likes ninety one M and she sort of
Speaker 17: said to me, what's what's the Z and the z
Speaker 17: B refer to?
Speaker 5: And why is the station the two?
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, I understand it. No, I can't answer it either.
Speaker 2: So because I know in New Zealand that z B
Speaker 2: used to be one ZB and two ZB and three
Speaker 2: ZEDB and four ZEDB and five ZB was a train.
Speaker 18: So yeah, the.
Speaker 17: Zb's were references to frequencies or too because in her
Speaker 17: mind ZEDB is is old and boring, ver exciting and fun.
Speaker 2: Yeah it was, it says call signs to New Zealand.
Speaker 1: It was all x Y z.
Speaker 5: Okay okay.
Speaker 2: And I don't know any more about that, but look,
Speaker 2: I tell you in nineteen twenty four, New Zealand was
Speaker 2: granted the prefix z.
Speaker 17: Okay in nineteen twenty four. This is a reference back
Speaker 17: to the back to year old England or was it
Speaker 17: sort of moodit casting things?
Speaker 2: Rob, I'm going to say there'll be some old broadcaster
Speaker 2: that will know more, and I'll see if I can
Speaker 2: get them to tell us. Okay, I presume, I presume
Speaker 2: your daughters in bed, but Rob will find out. Thank you, evening,
Speaker 2: Richard Marcus.
Speaker 7: Welcome leaving, Marcus Marcus. Look, you're talking about these expandable homes, right, Yes,
Speaker 7: I've been looking around myself, but then I still pull
Speaker 7: on my back when I go. I'm quite happy where
Speaker 7: I am. But a friend of mine has a vacant
Speaker 7: site and he is looking for something to put on.
Speaker 7: And he's a few clunky New Zealand designs and wooden
Speaker 7: structures and so forth and sons. But what I found,
Speaker 7: probably around about twelve months ago, was a product called
Speaker 7: Volve theater capture houses.
Speaker 5: Have you heard of those?
Speaker 2: What's the word again?
Speaker 5: Okay?
Speaker 11: The O?
Speaker 5: L If the are the a.
Speaker 2: The Okay, yeah, I see yes.
Speaker 7: If the are the a capsule house New Zealand in China,
Speaker 7: that's right, if you go onto Google search, which you've
Speaker 7: obviously done right, Yes, Now, these houses are pretty upmarket.
Speaker 2: And they're quite architectural looking, aren't they.
Speaker 7: Yes, they are very much so. And they're totally transportable
Speaker 7: and they come completely finished. You can have them done
Speaker 7: to new Zellan specification for power, all those sorts of things,
Speaker 7: sewage connections, the works, and the prices seem to me
Speaker 7: to be very competitive. Now, the prices do bounce around
Speaker 7: a bit, as you can probably see on that website.
Speaker 7: The one that appeals to me would be the larger
Speaker 7: one binds about eleven point six meters or something right,
Speaker 7: and it's called a Capsule Hotel or somebody. I don't know,
Speaker 7: but it looks very nice. And when they're finished you
Speaker 7: can have them imported, carpeted bed and all the respects them,
Speaker 7: automatic curtains, conditioning, heat pump, the whole works, kitchen, bathroom,
Speaker 7: two bedrooms.
Speaker 5: Very nice.
Speaker 7: Now, I personally I saw them in the state. Maybe
Speaker 7: they three years ago in the state. Did you say America?
Speaker 2: Yes, copy and.
Speaker 7: It's an American company with obviously manufacturing out of China.
Speaker 7: But for me, they seemed to be a pretty good
Speaker 7: option for price wise, et cetera, et cetera. Finishing and
Speaker 7: they come complete. There's none of this business of getting
Speaker 7: it and then having to line it and shatter around yourself.
Speaker 9: So that's it.
Speaker 2: How much I presume you're looking at the vole further
Speaker 2: capsule house model E eight. How much is that to
Speaker 2: get land in New Zealand?
Speaker 7: I think you can lock and round terms. I think
Speaker 7: you'd say ten grand ten.
Speaker 12: Yeah.
Speaker 2: See that seems cheap, doesn't it.
Speaker 14: Yeah?
Speaker 7: It is because they just think them on a Matthew trailer,
Speaker 7: think them.
Speaker 5: On a roll on roll.
Speaker 2: So is it the ten thousands for the shipping?
Speaker 7: The shipping?
Speaker 3: How much is it?
Speaker 2: How much is it to purchase one?
Speaker 7: Well, it's got it there somewhere. If you have a
Speaker 7: look at the prices, I thought you'd looked.
Speaker 2: I can't see the price bounce around.
Speaker 7: They do bounce around, and I would not entertain dealing
Speaker 7: with the manufacturer in China.
Speaker 5: I would go through.
Speaker 7: China. Is Zeeland, mate. They have a trade embassy here
Speaker 7: shall we say, which I have dealt with previously, and
Speaker 7: they're very good.
Speaker 2: Because I think there was someone on one of the
Speaker 2: local Facebook pages that brought someone to Southland and was
Speaker 2: trying to sell them. And I did see some look
Speaker 2: and I can't remember what the prices were. They shipped
Speaker 2: sort of in the end. I thought they looked quite expensive.
Speaker 2: I can't remember what the price was.
Speaker 7: Look, I don't know it would be best to get
Speaker 7: back to trade with China or whatever it is. The
Speaker 7: ferve things up. I certainly wouldn't go racing out paying directly.
Speaker 5: To the factory.
Speaker 7: But they look to me because a slight more upmarket
Speaker 7: than a container expandb home.
Speaker 2: Where did you see them in America? Were their own
Speaker 2: caravan part with parks or were they on.
Speaker 7: It was Florida, I thought, In fact, I've often it's
Speaker 7: all about getting one here, seeing what it looked like,
Speaker 7: and setting it up in a cooney on a vacant block.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I have access to here.
Speaker 2: With quite a few of them, with quite a few
Speaker 2: of them in Florida. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, it's it's
Speaker 2: been a company that's been around for a while.
Speaker 7: Oh yes, definitely. And as I said, they are manufacturing
Speaker 7: in China, but the company is us.
Speaker 2: Really appreciate that, Richard. Thank you for that rod of
Speaker 2: expandable homes. And about why the radio stations are called
Speaker 2: z B and z M. That's two things for you
Speaker 2: for this hour. People, six fourteen six Sydney over Canterbury.
Speaker 2: Greetings and welcome eight hundred and eighty ten eighty and
Speaker 2: nine nine to the text. You want to be part
Speaker 2: of it. Looking forward to your techxts. Marcus, what is
Speaker 2: folks problem? They are flat roof metal, no installation, They
Speaker 2: might man insulation. Please stop anyone buying them. We do
Speaker 2: not live in warm climates. You'd be worried about with
Speaker 2: expanding one with water getting in between the two different layers, Marcus.
Speaker 2: After we children left home, my parents and indittional students
Speaker 2: feed them Western foods, but also did stir fries. They
Speaker 2: always thought having a rice pudding was strange, Marcus. Z
Speaker 2: was the international prefix for New Zealand radio stations, like
Speaker 2: K for the US or C for Canada. That's right,
Speaker 2: so w KRP or kiss the b in ZB was
Speaker 2: assigned to particular stations in major cities. Ones he'd been Augland,
Speaker 2: two had been in threes, he'd been christ Which fours
Speaker 2: he'd been even and five z'd be was a train.
Speaker 2: Marcus just watched the Highlanders via the Hurricanes. Very good
Speaker 2: win for the Hurricanes. Waiting for the Warriors game against
Speaker 2: the Dolphins on a winning streak. Watch the Magic Round
Speaker 2: a few weeks back. Awesome, Lelloyd, Marcus. It would not
Speaker 2: be a physical switch, but a line or two of
Speaker 2: software that would terminate the program on receipt of a
Speaker 2: broadcast signal, possibly downcast from a satellite. Peter from an
Speaker 2: Thanks Peter, get in touch. Anything goes here. Tell twelve.
Speaker 2: My name is Marcus. Welcome. Expendable homes is the other topic.
Speaker 2: There's three, there's four, there's five, there's six, there's seven,
Speaker 2: there's eight, there's nine. There's as many topics as you want.
Speaker 2: But there's always butter. And people are hiding their butter.
Speaker 2: One person said they're having an open home and the
Speaker 2: real estate agent told them to hide their butter. I
Speaker 2: was always surprised with silly old Matthew perry Right and
Speaker 2: his addiction which I never quite could get a handle
Speaker 2: on what it was about. But he would go to
Speaker 2: open homes to raid the medicine cabinets. So I thought
Speaker 2: it was a strange thing to do, high end open homes. Yeah,
Speaker 2: probably should have said that, but it seems strange, didn't it.
Speaker 2: I mean, goodness for me, Good evening, Hayden, it's Marcus, Welcome.
Speaker 18: Are you going Marcus has a game?
Speaker 5: Mate?
Speaker 2: Good Hayden, Thank you.
Speaker 18: I I just thought i'd have a quick shout out
Speaker 18: to all the shift workers out there.
Speaker 2: To lot yeah, shout out to the shift workers.
Speaker 18: Ran out here in the middle of the night.
Speaker 2: But yeah, what are you doing, did you say, Hayden?
Speaker 18: Driving trains?
Speaker 6: Oh?
Speaker 18: Wow, yeah, drive a freight trains at the moment, So
Speaker 18: send up country?
Speaker 2: Whereabouts?
Speaker 5: Are you?
Speaker 18: Ah, just cruising through Huntball right now?
Speaker 2: But okay, sir Hayden, I hope, I hope you don't
Speaker 2: mind me asking you this, right, But there was a
Speaker 2: guy in South Auckland or that was that was He
Speaker 2: asked me in the middle of the week what was
Speaker 2: the longest train he's seen? He said there was one
Speaker 2: with one hundred and eighty nine We said carriages. I said,
Speaker 2: they're probably wagons. Yeah, what would what would be the
Speaker 2: limit to that?
Speaker 5: Was?
Speaker 2: They said there was a locomotive on the front of
Speaker 2: the back. Is there any limited all to that?
Speaker 16: Yeah?
Speaker 18: Those such things as there that he can't have a
Speaker 18: hundred and something wagons on where.
Speaker 2: That's that's that's not a thing. That's just fantasy land.
Speaker 11: A yeah.
Speaker 18: Yeah, I'll say we average around maybe six hundred and
Speaker 18: seven hundred meters long, Okay, get bigger and smaller, you know,
Speaker 18: it's depending.
Speaker 2: On Yeah, but six and how many how many wagons?
Speaker 2: Would be on six hundred meters.
Speaker 18: Ah, maybe about thirty five.
Speaker 2: Okay, appreciate it. Okay, thanks Hayden, you're shouted with the
Speaker 2: night workers. Donald at Marcus Good Evening.
Speaker 8: Hi, do you possibly drive an suv as you know
Speaker 8: what I mean? I think so, yeah, like like you know,
Speaker 8: like a highland at that style of a vehicle, you know.
Speaker 2: I think mine's a Mitsubishi. I can't remember what my carrs.
Speaker 8: Yeah, like when you know, like like a highlander or
Speaker 8: a chief or something. Now, I just think people should
Speaker 8: be made aware there's a lot of these things around
Speaker 8: there's suddenly being withdrawn off the market. Brandon, and I
Speaker 8: think it's a pity of people.
Speaker 9: Might want to buy the or have one.
Speaker 3: I think, God, we can't.
Speaker 8: What are you saying, I'm saying no. What I have
Speaker 8: read and it's not that obvious is the Jeep Grand
Speaker 8: Cherokee is no longer to be made available in New Zealand.
Speaker 8: It is not going off the market because they don't
Speaker 8: want to make them and write.
Speaker 3: And drive anymore.
Speaker 8: And the Jeep Grand Cherokee has been quite a reasonably
Speaker 8: good seller in New Zealand for quite some years. The
Speaker 8: latest one is only petrol and people very few around
Speaker 8: because people like diesel. But suddenly it's no longer to
Speaker 8: be made available and write and drive markets including New Zealand,
Speaker 8: so it's quite it's quite been quite a good sell
Speaker 8: in the past, but the latest model is very slow
Speaker 8: sellers and it's suddenly been withdrawn off the market. So
Speaker 8: as people have bought jeeps will suddenly find they've an effect.
Speaker 8: They've got an orphan vehicle, which seems to happen with
Speaker 8: a lot of brands these days.
Speaker 2: Did you call it an orphan vehicle?
Speaker 8: Well, well, you know years ago goodbye a you know,
Speaker 8: a Forward Falcon, and suddenly being they're no longer made
Speaker 8: so you can't update it. You know, you have to
Speaker 8: go to something different. Lot of vehicles just suddenly go
Speaker 8: to production because they don't sell, or people gens change.
Speaker 8: The reason of Grand Cherokee is finishing is because they
Speaker 8: no longer want to make them right and drive, so
Speaker 8: they're hanging on to New Zealand.
Speaker 2: Hang on, Donald. There's a bit to unpick here. When
Speaker 2: you see an orphan vehicle, is that a term or
Speaker 2: you made that up?
Speaker 8: I make it up because basically, you get a brand
Speaker 8: a vehicle, it suddenly isod production.
Speaker 2: Okay, so the situation with the cars that won't be
Speaker 2: available right, they are cars that are from American manufacturers
Speaker 2: that left hand drive cars.
Speaker 9: Is that right in this case? Yes?
Speaker 8: But other prints of other brands are gone that were
Speaker 8: right hand driving. Me the whole Holden line went has
Speaker 8: to quit them. But this one, yes, it's made right.
Speaker 8: It is American. It's made right hand drive for Britain,
Speaker 8: South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, ETCEPA. But they've decided to
Speaker 8: no longer make them in right hand drive, which is
Speaker 8: a great pity.
Speaker 12: Ah.
Speaker 2: I don't like them at all.
Speaker 8: The green chero Key, Well, my brother's on the second
Speaker 8: one and loves it, but he's been looking at new
Speaker 8: ones and then they're reducing them price, some of them.
Speaker 8: I suddenly read read that bang they're not selling them.
Speaker 4: He did fight in Australia.
Speaker 2: You want to buy one of those Chinese electric utes?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 8: I was in the plaza and partners in a couple
Speaker 8: of days ago, and there was a j CO and
Speaker 8: there was a motor. They're quite well, they're not very big,
Speaker 8: but they're certainly different, shall we say.
Speaker 2: Nice to hear from your Donald thank you. Twenty nine
Speaker 2: away from twelve. Probably an outlandish I can't remember what
Speaker 2: car you drive. Bollocks. Literally, it's outside. I'll go and
Speaker 2: have a look if you can. If you can, it's
Speaker 2: just back from the panel beaters.
Speaker 7: I get it.
Speaker 2: It changed every three years. It hasn't got a the
Speaker 2: kids will know what it is. I might see if
Speaker 2: I could bring up a picture of it on the
Speaker 2: is it a listen, I'm not trying to be cute
Speaker 2: or humorous. I literally cannot remember. Rather than going outside,
Speaker 2: I'll see if I can find a picture on my
Speaker 2: cell phone. I mean, I'm not a car I'm not
Speaker 2: someone that gets excited by cars. I'm not a carist.
Speaker 2: But I've googled car and my photo things and I
Speaker 2: can't see it. So yeah, I really don't know. I'm
Speaker 2: not being cute with that. I'll tell you what the
Speaker 2: next break, I'll go and i'll find out. I'll find
Speaker 2: out now for you, O Cape, hold your horses, so
Speaker 2: to look at the car. It's a Nissan X Trail,
Speaker 2: so yeah, true story. And someone said it's a this
Speaker 2: and no wonder it needs repairs already. No, it's done.
Speaker 2: One hundred and ten thousand K's it must be three
Speaker 2: years old. It's never any repairs. It just needed some
Speaker 2: work at the panel beaters because someone drove into the
Speaker 2: side of it. So that's a situation with that. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't think it was a I think someone said, yeah,
Speaker 2: I've never really looked at the back of it to
Speaker 2: see what it was. Noel, it's Marcus Welk.
Speaker 19: Hey, Mike is there?
Speaker 16: You mean.
Speaker 2: The butter?
Speaker 11: Uh?
Speaker 19: Oh yeah, a year before I get a better year

Speaker 19: Oh really yeah, A beautiful way, the beautiful truck.
Speaker 2: Wow, okay, you mine's not a hybrid.
Speaker 5: I wish it was.
Speaker 19: Yeah, yeah, beautiful, it's beautiful. And anyway, I'm butter. I'm
Speaker 19: not listening to you guys, I'm listening to Orange right.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 19: There was a story on There was a couple on

Speaker 19: V Victor. Yes, I don't know how he started, but
Speaker 19: this had a pronounced but it's a vegetarian butter, and
Speaker 19: and that sounds really nice. I was picking say the
Speaker 19: other day, I couldn't find it. There's nothing one nothing
Speaker 19: in these. It must have been countdown or something. But yeah,
Speaker 19: butter with Vah Victor the Brazilian. This couple, the married
Speaker 19: couple from Brazili, from Brazil and they made it here.
Speaker 19: What's amaze from vinegar? Taking a cream? You can you
Speaker 19: can cook it a high heat higher and then like
Speaker 19: well you can't won't burn?
Speaker 5: Is it cheaper anyway?
Speaker 3: B U T T E R.
Speaker 19: But of course.
Speaker 2: Probably I'll probably they'll count down. Everyone don't stock it
Speaker 2: because I don't want anyone to convert it. Mm hm
Speaker 2: did you google?
Speaker 19: Because doesn't doesn't have the fat and the be fit
Speaker 19: doesn't have this is what doesn't boone another?
Speaker 9: There is one thing on micros hang on, hang on?

Speaker 2: oh eight hundred and eighty, I were coming alive, Marcus.
Speaker 2: You can always go to car jam and look at
Speaker 2: your make model there if you remember your Rigio that does.
Speaker 2: Have a good night, Marcus. A few years ago a
Speaker 2: woman came on talkback re butter. She mixed a pounder
Speaker 2: butter with something that turned into three pounds. Still good.
Speaker 2: Wish I could remember anyone remember what that is? The
Speaker 2: butter extender. Maybe if you mix one pound of butter
Speaker 2: with two pounds a buttery, they have three pounds. Why
Speaker 2: would you buy an electric four wheel drive? You can't
Speaker 2: drive through water or using a farm or off road
Speaker 2: vehicle country trips, but you couldn't have water under your
Speaker 2: bonnet anyway. But Darren, remember, I couldn't remember what I drive.
Speaker 2: It's actually a work car, so it's not really I'm not.
Speaker 2: We let the kids decide they had to go, and
Speaker 2: they took us for a test drive and they I
Speaker 2: think it was a Hey On Die and a Toyota
Speaker 2: and the kids like that. The kids like that the
Speaker 2: seats in the back were higher. Yeah, that's why we
Speaker 2: bought it. And I don't like it at all because
Speaker 2: it doesn't have a key that goes on a lock,
Speaker 2: so you're always clicking different things to try and open it.
Speaker 2: And then the kids come and get in the car.
Speaker 2: It's an annoying car. Please to see the back of
Speaker 2: it actually, but it's mechanically sound. It's never missed a trick,
Speaker 2: although I did lose my cell phone down the side
Speaker 2: of it. Down the you know how they go down
Speaker 2: the side of the seats and you can't, for love
Speaker 2: nor money, get it out.
Speaker 6: Boy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, butter, butter and cars. That's just the beginning. No
Speaker 2: one wants to talk about toxoplayers basis I think you're
Speaker 2: quite right to be freaked out by it. All those
Speaker 2: kids playing in sandboxes ooh hey, and foreign students have
Speaker 2: been billeted at your house and solar panels. Marcus Nissans
Speaker 2: are unreliable, expensive to run, and complete rubbish to drive. However,
Speaker 2: models like the later X Trail have a Sterling safety rating.
Speaker 2: I thank you for that, yeah, because I haven't got
Speaker 2: any other features that you died out on. I think
Speaker 2: they did say that your cup warms would keep your
Speaker 2: coffee warm, but who wants to keep the coffee warm?
Speaker 2: You just want to drink it. Thanks. Daryl Darrel's had
Speaker 2: to text twice because he spelled his name wrong the
Speaker 2: first time. Good on you, Darryl Darrel must be a
Speaker 2: bit of a car head.
