Because I was 26 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 2: listening to you with Ministers of the Crown this morning, 27 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 2: one after the other, falling like dominoes, and I thought 28 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 2: to myself, if you're depressed, I'm depressed. We're all depressed. 29 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 2: It's like I feel like we're stuck in a time warp, 30 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 2: like the bar has been dropped so low these days, 31 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 2: I feel like everyone's just pushing pens around their desks. 32 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 2: Nobody wants to act, nobody wants to make a decision. 33 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 2: You know, how do you move forward as the country 34 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 2: when everyone just wants to play it safe. 35 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:43,760 Speaker 1: He's a good question. 36 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,119 Speaker 2: It maybe just provide vodka for the listeners as well. 37 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 3: At this point I got a podcast the answer. 38 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: I got an email overnight from a New Zealander who 39 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: does quite a lot of traveling and he emails me 40 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: periodically on his travels, and he's been in America in 41 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 1: various cities over the last week or so, and he 42 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: does the same thing time. She said, what he can't 43 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: believe having been in America this week is no one 44 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: he ran into, and he ran inty. He's been at 45 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: conferences and stuff, so he's running the many dozens of 46 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 1: not hundreds of people. And he also he rates uber drivers. 47 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: Uber drivers sit in the car twelve hours a day 48 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:13,639 Speaker 1: and they listen to a million different conversations, so he 49 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 1: rates them as very you know, in touch people with 50 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 1: what's going on. He claims, in the last week or 51 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 1: slightly more than a week, not a single person he's 52 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 1: run into in America has mentioned Iran, bombs, Trump or 53 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: politics of any nature. They're too busy getting on with life. 54 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 2: That's interesting. 55 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's that's odd because I would expect America 56 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:38,959 Speaker 3: to be more politicized than New Zealand. 57 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 1: For example, I reckon, I reckon. There's a trunk of 58 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: America that's politicized, and they're the same people who are 59 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: onto the one two seven thing. Erica Stanford whipping himself. 60 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 2: You gave her, you gave the points for that. I 61 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 2: actually think she boxed around that interview. I think she 62 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 2: was a bit of an own goal because she ended 63 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 2: up admitting, you know, she started off by saying it's 64 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,679 Speaker 2: absolute rubbish and ror, and then she ended up saying, oh, yes, 65 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,239 Speaker 2: yes it is in there. It's just wait what No. 66 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: I gave her point? No, no, no, I gave her 67 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: points because of the four people we've had on this morning, 68 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 1: she was the best of a Losery bunch. 69 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,079 Speaker 2: Towering of the bar, isn't it exactly? 70 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: That's exactly what I'm trying to say. I've got I've 71 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: got people on here this morning that could be uplifting us, 72 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: and every single one of them, in their own way, 73 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: has proved to be inadequate. 74 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, Mike, So Mike's actually he's lying the bar to 75 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 3: encourage Erica to lift up. He's doing he's doing the 76 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 3: fatherly thing. 77 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: What I want is people to be better. 78 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, Paul Goldsmith, that was really disappointing. I was just 79 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 2: thinking when you start to say, well, we might be 80 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 2: two or three more years away, are you you know 81 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 2: that's you may not even have that luxury of being 82 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 2: around that long mate, Like pull your head exactly. 83 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: I would see that as a person. 84 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 3: Can we have a review of reviews?
