But up 60 00:02:53,133 --> 00:02:57,613 Speaker 3: here in the Auckland apparently be summer for years, really apparently. 61 00:02:57,693 --> 00:03:00,572 Speaker 2: I wasn't here. It was great up north. It was fantastic. 62 00:03:01,213 --> 00:03:03,453 Speaker 2: Fund a Way Bay of Island's way where I was 63 00:03:03,453 --> 00:03:06,013 Speaker 2: a bit but it was pretty ev and topel. 64 00:03:05,813 --> 00:03:08,532 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, and Molbra sounds, I've got to say, old 65 00:03:08,613 --> 00:03:10,813 Speaker 3: sounds as usually, but kind of sheltered that you get 66 00:03:10,893 --> 00:03:14,093 Speaker 3: some decent weather, but terrible, terrible still go down on 67 00:03:14,133 --> 00:03:16,133 Speaker 3: the boat caught no first, but that doesn't matter. Just 68 00:03:16,173 --> 00:03:18,813 Speaker 3: sitting on a boat, there's nothing like it. It's relaxing, 69 00:03:18,853 --> 00:03:19,573 Speaker 3: it's beautiful. 70 00:03:19,773 --> 00:03:21,653 Speaker 2: Yeah, I prefer to catch a fish bat you know, 71 00:03:21,733 --> 00:03:23,572 Speaker 2: that's up to you. Even if I fell hook a 72 00:03:23,613 --> 00:03:25,613 Speaker 2: blue mail mail, I want to bring something. 73 00:03:25,453 --> 00:03:28,933 Speaker 3: Home exactly right onto the show today after three o'clock, 74 00:03:29,252 --> 00:03:31,373 Speaker 3: there's a trend that was doing the rounds. Maybe I 75 00:03:31,413 --> 00:03:33,653 Speaker 3: did still do in the rounds. It was called raw dogging. 76 00:03:33,733 --> 00:03:36,893 Speaker 3: And this was primarily right Matt. On flights, people would. 77 00:03:36,613 --> 00:03:39,453 Speaker 2: Go on long now, Well that's where people were posting. 78 00:03:39,493 --> 00:03:42,133 Speaker 2: It's basically complete digital detox on the flight. So you 79 00:03:42,173 --> 00:03:44,413 Speaker 2: don't read anything, you don't take your laptop, you don't 80 00:03:44,413 --> 00:03:46,653 Speaker 2: listen to music, you just sit there. And that's quite 81 00:03:46,693 --> 00:03:50,973 Speaker 2: a lot. And it shows a level of control and power. 82 00:03:51,333 --> 00:03:51,533 Speaker 3: Yep. 83 00:03:51,653 --> 00:03:53,573 Speaker 2: It's stuff, and it's sort of really saying how lame 84 00:03:53,613 --> 00:03:55,373 Speaker 2: we've got now. And before I was talking about the 85 00:03:55,413 --> 00:03:57,213 Speaker 2: TV show The Terror that I'm watching from a few 86 00:03:57,293 --> 00:04:01,093 Speaker 2: years ago. Yeah, and you know these are sailors that 87 00:04:01,133 --> 00:04:03,773 Speaker 2: were stuck for three winters in the ice in eighteen 88 00:04:04,173 --> 00:04:07,813 Speaker 2: and eighteen forties. You know we're soft now. We can't 89 00:04:07,933 --> 00:04:10,173 Speaker 2: even most people can't go and go to the bathroom 90 00:04:10,213 --> 00:04:13,253 Speaker 2: without taking their phone to read. You know, people cannot 91 00:04:13,293 --> 00:04:15,933 Speaker 2: stand being in their own thoughts for a second just sitting. 92 00:04:16,013 --> 00:04:18,853 Speaker 2: And people can't hand already even write alone complete detoks. 93 00:04:19,053 --> 00:04:22,652 Speaker 2: People don't even have the attention span to span to 94 00:04:22,733 --> 00:04:25,933 Speaker 2: read a book. So I'm encouraging people. I want to 95 00:04:25,933 --> 00:04:27,413 Speaker 2: hear from people, and I've already heard from a few 96 00:04:27,413 --> 00:04:29,773 Speaker 2: people on this idea because I've talked about it for 97 00:04:29,853 --> 00:04:33,573 Speaker 2: a while. But like say, for example, this morning, I 98 00:04:33,613 --> 00:04:36,493 Speaker 2: went for a seven k run. Nothing in my ear 99 00:04:36,493 --> 00:04:40,933 Speaker 2: is just pure listening to the birds, looking at the trees, 100 00:04:41,533 --> 00:04:46,573 Speaker 2: experiencing the wind, and completely in my own thoughts. No 101 00:04:46,653 --> 00:04:48,573 Speaker 2: need to put something in my ears to listen to 102 00:04:48,613 --> 00:04:53,373 Speaker 2: the music or a podcast or anything. Just absolutely enjoying 103 00:04:53,773 --> 00:04:57,213 Speaker 2: being a human being. And now I've moved that on 104 00:04:57,253 --> 00:04:59,333 Speaker 2: to going to the gym. When I go to the gymnasium, 105 00:04:59,853 --> 00:05:05,853 Speaker 2: the gymnasium, people just the gym. I guess, yeah, it is, 106 00:05:05,893 --> 00:05:09,013 Speaker 2: You're right. When I go to the gymnasium to lift 107 00:05:09,053 --> 00:05:12,493 Speaker 2: weights formal, now I'm not that seems crazy to people 108 00:05:12,493 --> 00:05:14,973 Speaker 2: go into the gym without having some music and years 109 00:05:15,013 --> 00:05:16,773 Speaker 2: you'd be lucky to see anyone else in the entire 110 00:05:16,813 --> 00:05:18,773 Speaker 2: place that isn't listening to stuff which makes it hard 111 00:05:18,813 --> 00:05:23,213 Speaker 2: to negotiate, you know, machines and weights and stuff. But 112 00:05:23,333 --> 00:05:26,373 Speaker 2: now I'm doing that, just going for an hour long workout, 113 00:05:27,053 --> 00:05:28,853 Speaker 2: and that makes me a better person than people that 114 00:05:28,893 --> 00:05:32,693 Speaker 2: don't do that. No, I feel like it's making me 115 00:05:32,733 --> 00:05:36,093 Speaker 2: feel happier in life, just having some time when you're 116 00:05:36,213 --> 00:05:40,333 Speaker 2: free from the constant input and just being in your 117 00:05:40,373 --> 00:05:44,413 Speaker 2: own For wars, it's meditative and it seems terrifying before 118 00:05:44,413 --> 00:05:46,613 Speaker 2: you do it, you go, I'm gonna get so bored, 119 00:05:46,853 --> 00:05:49,893 Speaker 2: But once you start doing it it actually it actually 120 00:05:49,933 --> 00:05:53,813 Speaker 2: becomes quite normal, and it grows on it each each 121 00:05:53,853 --> 00:05:56,013 Speaker 2: time it becomes easier, and then you start looking forward 122 00:05:56,093 --> 00:05:58,133 Speaker 2: to actually experiencing reality. 123 00:05:57,773 --> 00:05:59,613 Speaker 3: Part of it. I can understand when I go walk 124 00:05:59,653 --> 00:06:02,013 Speaker 3: the dog, it's just me and the dog because I'm 125 00:06:02,013 --> 00:06:06,373 Speaker 3: interacting with Pepper, my beautiful dog. Is that's probably my distraction. 126 00:06:06,493 --> 00:06:08,893 Speaker 3: But I think it's madness in the gym and nothing 127 00:06:08,973 --> 00:06:11,533 Speaker 3: in my ear holes in the gym were just I 128 00:06:11,573 --> 00:06:13,373 Speaker 3: don't know, I don't know what would happen. 129 00:06:13,933 --> 00:06:15,533 Speaker 2: Find this study has been done that if you're more 130 00:06:15,573 --> 00:06:18,373 Speaker 2: concentrating on your exercise and your form. It does better 131 00:06:18,613 --> 00:06:21,053 Speaker 2: work rather than you listening to your Joe Rogan podcast 132 00:06:21,173 --> 00:06:21,733 Speaker 2: or whatever you are. 133 00:06:21,893 --> 00:06:21,933 Speaker 5: You. 134 00:06:22,373 --> 00:06:23,933 Speaker 3: Yeah, but also I don't go to the gym, so 135 00:06:24,053 --> 00:06:26,973 Speaker 3: that I'll better start going to the gym first. That's 136 00:06:27,053 --> 00:06:31,093 Speaker 3: after three o'clock. I can't tell after two o'clock. Is 137 00:06:31,133 --> 00:06:35,773 Speaker 3: it time to look at shifting the summer holidays to February. 138 00:06:35,413 --> 00:06:37,133 Speaker 2: As we're talking about just a few minutes ago. It 139 00:06:37,213 --> 00:06:39,613 Speaker 2: seems to be so much better the weather from about 140 00:06:39,733 --> 00:06:46,573 Speaker 2: now to in Auckland and you know north February and 141 00:06:46,613 --> 00:06:47,413 Speaker 2: March of phenomenal. 142 00:06:47,853 --> 00:06:49,253 Speaker 3: These are the months that you want off. 143 00:06:49,253 --> 00:06:52,173 Speaker 2: But this comes from an article in the Herald from 144 00:06:52,973 --> 00:06:56,533 Speaker 2: a person that was talking about Wellington and lamenting a 145 00:06:56,613 --> 00:07:00,253 Speaker 2: terrible summer and Wellington, how often you just get tumultuous weather? Then, 146 00:07:00,333 --> 00:07:03,053 Speaker 2: but then you know the stats are that February is 147 00:07:03,133 --> 00:07:07,373 Speaker 2: so much better. Yeah, February as the average temperature is 148 00:07:07,813 --> 00:07:11,133 Speaker 2: as a almost three degrees warmer than it is in 149 00:07:11,613 --> 00:07:12,453 Speaker 2: December January. 150 00:07:12,533 --> 00:07:14,413 Speaker 3: Well, there you go. I mean that's game set of match, 151 00:07:14,453 --> 00:07:14,733 Speaker 3: isn't it. 152 00:07:14,773 --> 00:07:17,213 Speaker 2: This was something My math is terrible. Eighteen point seven 153 00:07:17,253 --> 00:07:20,453 Speaker 2: degrees average to twenty point five, so not three but yeah. 154 00:07:20,373 --> 00:07:24,133 Speaker 3: Yeah, but a lot of smart people already if you 155 00:07:24,173 --> 00:07:27,453 Speaker 3: don't have the four shutdown over Christmas period. And we're 156 00:07:27,453 --> 00:07:30,653 Speaker 3: in an industry that is shut down primarily for our 157 00:07:30,693 --> 00:07:34,013 Speaker 3: positions that they have the holiday hosts who come in. 158 00:07:34,053 --> 00:07:36,293 Speaker 3: But a lot of industries do shut down over that 159 00:07:36,373 --> 00:07:39,693 Speaker 3: Christmas period. But the idea of shifting as a society, 160 00:07:39,973 --> 00:07:42,293 Speaker 3: start with the school holidays and then move all the 161 00:07:42,333 --> 00:07:45,773 Speaker 3: other holidays to February. Everybody will be better off for it. 162 00:07:46,013 --> 00:07:49,013 Speaker 2: So you turn Christmas into Easter basically, so it's just 163 00:07:49,093 --> 00:07:51,853 Speaker 2: sort of a four day holiday, and you still celebrate 164 00:07:51,893 --> 00:07:53,733 Speaker 2: it just as hard. You still have all the magic, 165 00:07:53,813 --> 00:07:55,893 Speaker 2: you know, the family gets together, all that kind of stuff. 166 00:07:56,293 --> 00:08:00,413 Speaker 2: But then you go back to work and then you 167 00:08:01,253 --> 00:08:03,773 Speaker 2: I mean, there is an obvious problem around Jan one 168 00:08:03,853 --> 00:08:07,133 Speaker 2: and the lack of product jan one, But then you 169 00:08:07,133 --> 00:08:10,213 Speaker 2: move the holiday februe Yeah, and then and then as 170 00:08:10,813 --> 00:08:12,613 Speaker 2: a rule, people have better with it. 171 00:08:12,733 --> 00:08:14,413 Speaker 3: Yep, love it, and we're gonna have a chat to 172 00:08:14,413 --> 00:08:17,733 Speaker 3: Peter Dunn as well, former MP and United Future leader. 173 00:08:18,573 --> 00:08:21,933 Speaker 2: Improved productivity as well, because I think our massive break 174 00:08:21,933 --> 00:08:25,053 Speaker 2: we take, you know, around Christmas and adding some holidays 175 00:08:25,053 --> 00:08:27,013 Speaker 2: onto it means that we shut down for so long. 176 00:08:27,213 --> 00:08:30,493 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, put it in neutral from about October. So yeah, 177 00:08:30,533 --> 00:08:32,893 Speaker 3: this could be a big productivity boost, that is after 178 00:08:32,893 --> 00:08:35,813 Speaker 3: two o'clock. Because right now, speaking of productivity, we want 179 00:08:35,852 --> 00:08:38,013 Speaker 3: to talk about working from home. 180 00:08:38,493 --> 00:08:42,213 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. You may have seen it. Yesterday. President 181 00:08:42,213 --> 00:08:45,133 Speaker 2: Donald Trump has ordered federal workers in the United States 182 00:08:45,173 --> 00:08:47,292 Speaker 2: to return to the office five days a week. In 183 00:08:47,372 --> 00:08:50,933 Speaker 2: executive order. He has said, this is what it says, 184 00:08:51,132 --> 00:08:54,093 Speaker 2: take all necessary steps to terminate remote work arrangements and 185 00:08:54,132 --> 00:08:56,533 Speaker 2: require employees to return to work in person at their 186 00:08:56,533 --> 00:08:59,532 Speaker 2: respective duty stations on a full time basis, provided that 187 00:08:59,573 --> 00:09:04,612 Speaker 2: the department and agency heads shall make exemptions they deem necessary. 188 00:09:04,813 --> 00:09:07,573 Speaker 2: And of course, our government at a sort of a 189 00:09:07,573 --> 00:09:10,453 Speaker 2: weaker not a weaker but a sort of a more 190 00:09:10,453 --> 00:09:16,293 Speaker 2: subtle announcement in September of last year around working from 191 00:09:16,333 --> 00:09:19,653 Speaker 2: home arrangements and sort of wanted people to tend towards it. 192 00:09:20,213 --> 00:09:22,413 Speaker 2: So that's where the world's go back to it. You know, 193 00:09:22,973 --> 00:09:26,372 Speaker 2: COVID had people just really leaning towards working from home, 194 00:09:26,533 --> 00:09:30,173 Speaker 2: and now the world is moving back towards working in 195 00:09:30,252 --> 00:09:32,813 Speaker 2: the office five days a week with you, with your coworkers. 196 00:09:33,132 --> 00:09:35,293 Speaker 3: And I think that's a good thing one hundred percent. 197 00:09:35,333 --> 00:09:37,693 Speaker 3: I think that's a good thing for me personally, working 198 00:09:37,732 --> 00:09:40,533 Speaker 3: from I was in a job about seven years ago 199 00:09:40,612 --> 00:09:43,373 Speaker 3: where we had that full working flexibility, and that was 200 00:09:43,372 --> 00:09:46,573 Speaker 3: before COVID, and I hated it. I hated working at 201 00:09:46,612 --> 00:09:48,693 Speaker 3: home by myself. If I'd go to the office there'd 202 00:09:48,693 --> 00:09:51,693 Speaker 3: be no one there. But generally, I think, and I 203 00:09:51,693 --> 00:09:54,493 Speaker 3: think studies have shown this that if you think working 204 00:09:54,533 --> 00:09:57,252 Speaker 3: from home you're more productive, I call BS on that. 205 00:09:57,533 --> 00:09:59,453 Speaker 2: Yeah, you said, you said in the break to me, 206 00:09:59,492 --> 00:10:02,453 Speaker 2: you said anyone that says they work from home better 207 00:10:02,492 --> 00:10:04,933 Speaker 2: than they work at work as a liar. You said, 208 00:10:04,933 --> 00:10:07,653 Speaker 2: they're lying to their work, definitely, and some of them 209 00:10:07,653 --> 00:10:10,653 Speaker 2: are even lying to themselves. But work from home people 210 00:10:10,892 --> 00:10:13,172 Speaker 2: do less work, is what you said. So just own 211 00:10:13,252 --> 00:10:16,373 Speaker 2: up to it as what you said, they're lying. 212 00:10:16,773 --> 00:10:19,292 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, well you know you've twisted my words a 213 00:10:19,293 --> 00:10:21,853 Speaker 3: little bit there, But quite frankly, I did say I 214 00:10:21,892 --> 00:10:24,053 Speaker 3: think it's b yes, which is kind of like calling 215 00:10:24,053 --> 00:10:26,653 Speaker 3: them liars. So if you can prove me wrong, if 216 00:10:26,732 --> 00:10:30,252 Speaker 3: you were someone that is more productive working from home, 217 00:10:30,333 --> 00:10:31,813 Speaker 3: give me a call right now, give us a call, 218 00:10:31,852 --> 00:10:32,973 Speaker 3: oh eight hundred and eighty. 219 00:10:32,773 --> 00:10:35,533 Speaker 2: And you'll call them a lie to their face. But 220 00:10:35,732 --> 00:10:39,052 Speaker 2: also I'd be interested because if I say, Trump was 221 00:10:39,093 --> 00:10:41,573 Speaker 2: your boss, right and you've you've got flexible working hours 222 00:10:41,653 --> 00:10:43,413 Speaker 2: right now, and Trump just happened to be your boss 223 00:10:43,413 --> 00:10:45,173 Speaker 2: at your workplace and he said you have to come 224 00:10:45,213 --> 00:10:48,253 Speaker 2: in five days. Could you do it? Would it just 225 00:10:48,293 --> 00:10:50,573 Speaker 2: disrupt your life too much with dropping off and picking 226 00:10:50,653 --> 00:10:52,372 Speaker 2: up kids and all the other things you do on 227 00:10:52,973 --> 00:10:55,813 Speaker 2: work time, Whether you could do it or not, or 228 00:10:55,813 --> 00:10:56,693 Speaker 2: would you quit your job? 229 00:10:56,852 --> 00:10:59,012 Speaker 3: Yeah, nine two ninety two is the text number. Oh, 230 00:10:59,012 --> 00:11:02,293 Speaker 3: eight hundred eighty ten eighty, let's get into it. It is 231 00:11:02,372 --> 00:11:03,973 Speaker 3: a quarter past one, back in a mow. 232 00:11:05,732 --> 00:11:09,173 Speaker 1: The big stories, the big issues, the big trends, and 233 00:11:09,453 --> 00:11:13,053 Speaker 1: everything in between. Matt and Taylor afternoons with the Volvo 234 00:11:13,372 --> 00:11:16,573 Speaker 1: XC ninety, attention to detail and a commitment to comfort 235 00:11:16,653 --> 00:11:17,413 Speaker 1: news talks. 236 00:11:17,173 --> 00:11:17,573 Speaker 4: There'd be. 237 00:11:19,852 --> 00:11:23,052 Speaker 3: Good afternoon. Seventeen past one. So we're talking about the 238 00:11:23,813 --> 00:11:26,573 Speaker 3: old idea of flexible working working from home. On the 239 00:11:26,573 --> 00:11:31,012 Speaker 3: back of Donald Trump ordering federal workers back to the office, 240 00:11:31,653 --> 00:11:34,812 Speaker 3: and of course our own governments are released some guidelines 241 00:11:34,852 --> 00:11:39,813 Speaker 3: that public servants should, unless absolutely necessarily necessary, be working 242 00:11:39,813 --> 00:11:40,093 Speaker 3: from the. 243 00:11:40,093 --> 00:11:42,892 Speaker 2: Office as well. They did in September of last year 244 00:11:42,933 --> 00:11:45,012 Speaker 2: working from home arrangements and public service and not an 245 00:11:45,132 --> 00:11:48,053 Speaker 2: entitlement and should be by explicit agreement between the employer 246 00:11:48,132 --> 00:11:50,293 Speaker 2: and the employer. What do you think about this? 247 00:11:50,533 --> 00:11:54,132 Speaker 3: Yeah, plenty of texts coming through. And I mentioned before 248 00:11:54,252 --> 00:11:57,933 Speaker 3: that I think productivity. If you think you're more productive 249 00:11:57,933 --> 00:12:01,013 Speaker 3: working from home, I just feel that's a bit byes 250 00:12:01,053 --> 00:12:05,013 Speaker 3: and this person to Umbridge at that bs T yourself, tylers, 251 00:12:05,012 --> 00:12:07,773 Speaker 3: some of us gets get less interruptions at home, so 252 00:12:07,813 --> 00:12:11,213 Speaker 3: we're more which freeze up time to get more done. 253 00:12:11,492 --> 00:12:12,613 Speaker 3: What's your evidence? 254 00:12:12,693 --> 00:12:13,412 Speaker 2: Yeah, what's your evidence? 255 00:12:13,813 --> 00:12:18,012 Speaker 3: Just just cut feel No, Look, you know. 256 00:12:18,012 --> 00:12:20,253 Speaker 2: Your experience is your own personal experience, and when you 257 00:12:20,293 --> 00:12:23,213 Speaker 2: were working it from you were you found yourself being distracted? 258 00:12:23,293 --> 00:12:23,773 Speaker 3: Right? Yeah? 259 00:12:23,852 --> 00:12:27,492 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think from that you've elaborated. 260 00:12:27,012 --> 00:12:30,173 Speaker 3: To everyone that's right. But for some tasks, and here's 261 00:12:30,213 --> 00:12:32,293 Speaker 3: my he's my wider point for some tasks, and I 262 00:12:32,372 --> 00:12:35,333 Speaker 3: work this way that if I have less distractions, I 263 00:12:35,333 --> 00:12:38,693 Speaker 3: can get that task done better and of a higher quality. 264 00:12:39,093 --> 00:12:43,333 Speaker 3: But by missing out on social interactions with my workmates, 265 00:12:43,413 --> 00:12:45,213 Speaker 3: not while I'm meant to be working, but just in 266 00:12:45,252 --> 00:12:48,093 Speaker 3: the general day, in the lunch break, walking past them 267 00:12:48,093 --> 00:12:51,213 Speaker 3: in the office, that has a cost to my overall 268 00:12:51,252 --> 00:12:53,653 Speaker 3: mental health and is a cost of my productivity. And 269 00:12:53,732 --> 00:12:56,252 Speaker 3: I think as a human that would be the same 270 00:12:56,333 --> 00:12:56,973 Speaker 3: for most of us. 271 00:12:57,053 --> 00:12:58,652 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I like people and I like being 272 00:12:58,693 --> 00:12:59,053 Speaker 2: around them. 273 00:12:59,173 --> 00:13:01,453 Speaker 3: Yeah. Oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the 274 00:13:01,533 --> 00:13:03,012 Speaker 3: number to Coo Hayley, How are you? 275 00:13:04,173 --> 00:13:04,573 Speaker 6: I'm good. 276 00:13:04,573 --> 00:13:05,052 Speaker 7: How are you going? 277 00:13:05,573 --> 00:13:09,013 Speaker 3: Very good? So you think you are more productiveking from home. 278 00:13:09,892 --> 00:13:13,132 Speaker 7: I'm one hundred percent more productive working from home. I 279 00:13:13,173 --> 00:13:15,453 Speaker 7: work in Auckland, or I live in Auckland and I 280 00:13:15,573 --> 00:13:18,413 Speaker 7: work from home. I did used to have to travel 281 00:13:19,213 --> 00:13:22,653 Speaker 7: from like North Auckland into the CBD every day to 282 00:13:22,693 --> 00:13:25,892 Speaker 7: go to the office and back again. Obviously, so that 283 00:13:25,973 --> 00:13:30,492 Speaker 7: was about four hours round traveling and so obviously working 284 00:13:30,533 --> 00:13:33,893 Speaker 7: from home, I don't have that travel time anymore. So 285 00:13:33,933 --> 00:13:36,892 Speaker 7: I'm feeling less stressed to stout the day. I'm less 286 00:13:36,892 --> 00:13:40,333 Speaker 7: frustrated because I'm not in the traffic. I'm more relaxed 287 00:13:40,333 --> 00:13:42,613 Speaker 7: because I just like sort of get up, go to 288 00:13:42,693 --> 00:13:47,533 Speaker 7: work that's in the office at home. I have less 289 00:13:47,533 --> 00:13:50,173 Speaker 7: distractions throughout the day because I'm not around my coworkers 290 00:13:50,173 --> 00:13:52,773 Speaker 7: that you know, we're not sort of chatting and you know, 291 00:13:52,813 --> 00:13:56,013 Speaker 7: taking longer lunches or anything like that. So I just 292 00:13:56,093 --> 00:13:58,052 Speaker 7: I feel like I get a whole heap more done 293 00:13:58,093 --> 00:14:01,013 Speaker 7: at work at home for work, and I also get 294 00:14:01,053 --> 00:14:03,492 Speaker 7: more home stuff done in my lunch break when I'm 295 00:14:03,533 --> 00:14:05,853 Speaker 7: working from home. So I feel less best in general 296 00:14:05,892 --> 00:14:07,573 Speaker 7: about both home and work. 297 00:14:08,453 --> 00:14:11,492 Speaker 2: What if you don't mind telling me, what's what's your profession? 298 00:14:13,093 --> 00:14:15,853 Speaker 7: I'm a head of operations in finance for a small 299 00:14:16,173 --> 00:14:21,213 Speaker 7: New Zealand run company, so I'm mainly doing sort of invoiceing, 300 00:14:21,293 --> 00:14:25,573 Speaker 7: operational like printing and stall type scenario stuff. So it's 301 00:14:25,573 --> 00:14:29,052 Speaker 7: all very computer focus, like I'm not on the road 302 00:14:29,133 --> 00:14:29,893 Speaker 7: or anything like that. 303 00:14:31,253 --> 00:14:33,213 Speaker 2: Are you quite high? Are you quite? Are you quite 304 00:14:33,253 --> 00:14:35,293 Speaker 2: high up in the in the company? Like have you 305 00:14:35,293 --> 00:14:36,373 Speaker 2: you been there for a while? 306 00:14:37,533 --> 00:14:41,133 Speaker 7: Yeah, I've been there for ten years and I'm like 307 00:14:41,173 --> 00:14:43,453 Speaker 7: the head of the operations of tinants and anyone else 308 00:14:43,453 --> 00:14:47,493 Speaker 7: will the underneath. But we all there's another sales gal 309 00:14:47,613 --> 00:14:50,613 Speaker 7: and our team and she works from home and she's 310 00:14:50,613 --> 00:14:52,973 Speaker 7: from Walkworth so it's quite a way to travel all 311 00:14:52,973 --> 00:14:54,333 Speaker 7: the way to the CBD every day. 312 00:14:54,373 --> 00:14:54,573 Speaker 8: You know. 313 00:14:55,893 --> 00:14:58,573 Speaker 7: Well, we find quite a lot of harmony as a 314 00:14:58,613 --> 00:15:00,693 Speaker 7: team working from home. We come into the office once 315 00:15:00,733 --> 00:15:02,773 Speaker 7: a week for like a whip you know, like a 316 00:15:02,813 --> 00:15:06,532 Speaker 7: work in progress meeting, we all catch up. But yeah, 317 00:15:06,573 --> 00:15:08,253 Speaker 7: I find it. I find I'm much much more for 318 00:15:08,773 --> 00:15:10,373 Speaker 7: and just generally less stressed. 319 00:15:10,533 --> 00:15:13,053 Speaker 2: What about socially, do you find that you have the 320 00:15:13,173 --> 00:15:15,412 Speaker 2: same social bonds with your workers? 321 00:15:16,893 --> 00:15:19,653 Speaker 7: Yeah, I guess no, probably, No, I don't. I do 322 00:15:19,733 --> 00:15:24,613 Speaker 7: feel like we collaborate less as a team, but that's 323 00:15:24,773 --> 00:15:28,693 Speaker 7: not necessarily important to my side of the job. Yeah, 324 00:15:29,693 --> 00:15:31,973 Speaker 7: but the sales team they spend a little bit more 325 00:15:32,053 --> 00:15:35,733 Speaker 7: time together as a whole, so they probably have a 326 00:15:35,733 --> 00:15:38,412 Speaker 7: bit more of a collaborative sort of working environment then. 327 00:15:39,293 --> 00:15:42,573 Speaker 7: But yeah, for my role, it's not necessarily really. I 328 00:15:42,693 --> 00:15:45,093 Speaker 7: just speak to my colleagues a lot on the phone 329 00:15:45,133 --> 00:15:47,373 Speaker 7: to clear things up and stuff like that, so I 330 00:15:47,413 --> 00:15:49,532 Speaker 7: am muching base with them frequently. 331 00:15:50,253 --> 00:15:53,253 Speaker 3: Do you have to be quite disciplined on yourself when 332 00:15:53,293 --> 00:15:55,973 Speaker 3: you're working from home, that you have to lock yourself away, 333 00:15:56,013 --> 00:15:59,653 Speaker 3: that you've got your workspace, you study whatever, and any 334 00:15:59,693 --> 00:16:02,013 Speaker 3: distractions in the home life you just have to ignore, 335 00:16:02,013 --> 00:16:02,373 Speaker 3: way of it. 336 00:16:03,973 --> 00:16:06,453 Speaker 7: Yeah. So I'm fortunate that we've got essentially like a 337 00:16:06,493 --> 00:16:09,493 Speaker 7: whole spare bedroom that I've converted to my office, so 338 00:16:10,013 --> 00:16:12,933 Speaker 7: I can essentially shut myself in there and everything else 339 00:16:12,973 --> 00:16:16,253 Speaker 7: sort of fades into the background. I do have a 340 00:16:16,253 --> 00:16:19,293 Speaker 7: teenage daughter, and in the school holidays, I have found 341 00:16:19,333 --> 00:16:21,893 Speaker 7: that as a little bit more frustrating to deal with 342 00:16:21,933 --> 00:16:24,373 Speaker 7: because she's just like, oh, mom's at home, you know, 343 00:16:24,573 --> 00:16:26,893 Speaker 7: she can do whatever I need essentially, which isn't the 344 00:16:26,933 --> 00:16:29,253 Speaker 7: case because I still am working. But that when she's 345 00:16:29,293 --> 00:16:32,333 Speaker 7: at school, that's obviously not a not a thing. You know, 346 00:16:32,373 --> 00:16:34,253 Speaker 7: she's a school. Yeah. 347 00:16:34,493 --> 00:16:36,653 Speaker 2: I think it's interesting because you're in sort of quite 348 00:16:36,693 --> 00:16:38,493 Speaker 2: a good position. There's a couple of thoughts I've got 349 00:16:38,493 --> 00:16:40,253 Speaker 2: on there. If you're if you're a young person coming 350 00:16:40,333 --> 00:16:42,533 Speaker 2: up through a company, if you don't make those direct 351 00:16:42,533 --> 00:16:45,533 Speaker 2: community you know, those direct links with people, and there've 352 00:16:45,613 --> 00:16:47,013 Speaker 2: been studies I don't have them front of me, so 353 00:16:47,013 --> 00:16:49,213 Speaker 2: you should have to believe me. They say that you're 354 00:16:49,253 --> 00:16:52,333 Speaker 2: more likely to lose your job, or if you don't 355 00:16:52,333 --> 00:16:55,213 Speaker 2: have a direct face to face relationship with someone you know, 356 00:16:55,253 --> 00:16:57,533 Speaker 2: then you know, the more you're more likely to get promotions. 357 00:16:57,613 --> 00:17:00,773 Speaker 2: And yet you know that that relationship you have in 358 00:17:00,853 --> 00:17:04,653 Speaker 2: the office, you know, if there's someone working from home 359 00:17:04,653 --> 00:17:07,613 Speaker 2: and there's someone working from the office with the management 360 00:17:07,653 --> 00:17:09,893 Speaker 2: above them, then they're more likely to promote the person 361 00:17:09,933 --> 00:17:12,213 Speaker 2: that's close to them, just because that's why human beings 362 00:17:12,253 --> 00:17:14,733 Speaker 2: see the world, you know, you know, they feel feel 363 00:17:14,733 --> 00:17:17,973 Speaker 2: closer to people that they see more often in the flesh. 364 00:17:18,013 --> 00:17:19,933 Speaker 2: So you know, you say that you're the boss now, 365 00:17:19,933 --> 00:17:21,093 Speaker 2: but do you think you would have been able to 366 00:17:21,133 --> 00:17:22,613 Speaker 2: get to where you know, you're the head of your 367 00:17:22,853 --> 00:17:24,853 Speaker 2: your department or whatever. Do you think you would have 368 00:17:24,893 --> 00:17:27,933 Speaker 2: been able to get there from the bottom remotely, you know, 369 00:17:27,933 --> 00:17:28,733 Speaker 2: from when you when. 370 00:17:28,613 --> 00:17:35,413 Speaker 7: You start probably, I mean essentially for this specific scenario 371 00:17:35,493 --> 00:17:37,213 Speaker 7: where were you know, there's only five of us on 372 00:17:37,253 --> 00:17:40,413 Speaker 7: the team, most likely, but you know, in a bigger company, No, 373 00:17:40,533 --> 00:17:43,893 Speaker 7: Like I couldn't I couldn't say, and it's probably not likely, No, 374 00:17:45,693 --> 00:17:49,613 Speaker 7: But yeah, there's also I think you have to evaluate it. 375 00:17:51,533 --> 00:17:53,973 Speaker 2: Sorry to talk of you, Haley, but so, Hailey, if 376 00:17:54,413 --> 00:17:56,813 Speaker 2: if Trump was your boss, right like he is the 377 00:17:56,813 --> 00:17:59,493 Speaker 2: boss of America, and he said you have to come 378 00:17:59,493 --> 00:18:01,853 Speaker 2: to work five days a week, that that this is 379 00:18:01,893 --> 00:18:04,053 Speaker 2: now the way it is, and you know we're working 380 00:18:04,053 --> 00:18:05,933 Speaker 2: from homeworks for you, but it doesn't work for your 381 00:18:05,933 --> 00:18:08,613 Speaker 2: company anymore. And they said everyone's in the for for 382 00:18:08,653 --> 00:18:11,853 Speaker 2: five days a week. Would you do it or would 383 00:18:11,893 --> 00:18:13,173 Speaker 2: you look for another job? 384 00:18:15,893 --> 00:18:19,173 Speaker 7: I would say I would do it initially, but I 385 00:18:19,213 --> 00:18:22,133 Speaker 7: would probably keep my options open. 386 00:18:22,413 --> 00:18:24,573 Speaker 3: Sure, yeah, smart. 387 00:18:25,173 --> 00:18:29,093 Speaker 7: You know, I've got accustomed to the flexibility now, so 388 00:18:29,133 --> 00:18:32,853 Speaker 7: it would be quite hard to plan my life around 389 00:18:32,933 --> 00:18:35,532 Speaker 7: being in the office five days a week. But you know, 390 00:18:35,613 --> 00:18:38,973 Speaker 7: like we've also got a massive mortgage, so me.

My husband works at work, 468 00:21:48,053 --> 00:21:52,973 Speaker 12: but he can work from home, and probably three different scenarios. 469 00:21:53,013 --> 00:21:54,093 Speaker 13: One you. 470 00:21:56,293 --> 00:21:59,013 Speaker 12: One of the points that you made was you find 471 00:21:59,053 --> 00:22:02,653 Speaker 12: it better that you can communicate with people. With your workmates, 472 00:22:03,013 --> 00:22:05,493 Speaker 12: talk's a little bit more of an environment where you can, 473 00:22:06,053 --> 00:22:08,773 Speaker 12: you know, have lunch together, have checked together the past, 474 00:22:08,813 --> 00:22:11,173 Speaker 12: each other in the corridor or the other out of 475 00:22:11,253 --> 00:22:15,973 Speaker 12: the desk or whatever. As a as a mother at home, 476 00:22:16,573 --> 00:22:18,973 Speaker 12: I know you don't get paid as such, but if 477 00:22:19,013 --> 00:22:22,013 Speaker 12: you're a full time mum, you're running around after the 478 00:22:22,093 --> 00:22:24,373 Speaker 12: kids doing all that stuff, and you don't get that 479 00:22:24,493 --> 00:22:29,493 Speaker 12: social interaction. And that's that's that's one point I wanted 480 00:22:29,533 --> 00:22:32,173 Speaker 12: to make, and that's just something that your grin and Bearrett, 481 00:22:32,213 --> 00:22:33,013 Speaker 12: you suck it up. 482 00:22:33,253 --> 00:22:33,493 Speaker 14: I think. 483 00:22:33,813 --> 00:22:35,213 Speaker 2: I think that's one of the that's one of the 484 00:22:35,253 --> 00:22:38,532 Speaker 2: toughest parts of being a start home mum, isn't it. 485 00:22:38,973 --> 00:22:43,453 Speaker 2: The lack of adult interactions that you have. And you know, 486 00:22:43,453 --> 00:22:46,613 Speaker 2: I've experienced that that firsthand and with another people that 487 00:22:46,813 --> 00:22:49,933 Speaker 2: you know, come home from work and someone's only been 488 00:22:49,973 --> 00:22:53,373 Speaker 2: dealing with children from an entire day. That's that's very tough. 489 00:22:53,453 --> 00:22:55,133 Speaker 3: Absolutely, yeah. 490 00:22:55,133 --> 00:22:58,133 Speaker 12: I mean, you know, like your partner comes home and 491 00:22:58,453 --> 00:23:00,373 Speaker 12: they've had a whole day at the office and I'm 492 00:23:00,413 --> 00:23:02,453 Speaker 12: pretty happy or upbeat or have had a bad day, 493 00:23:03,213 --> 00:23:06,933 Speaker 12: but they don't get that you haven't had the interaction 494 00:23:07,253 --> 00:23:09,813 Speaker 12: and you don't want the s that comes home from 495 00:23:09,813 --> 00:23:11,053 Speaker 12: work either, you know what I mean. 496 00:23:11,173 --> 00:23:14,493 Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's yeah, Well, that's one I'm calling a 497 00:23:14,533 --> 00:23:16,573 Speaker 3: little bit of bs on the people that say that 498 00:23:16,613 --> 00:23:19,292 Speaker 3: they are absolutely productive at working from home and they 499 00:23:19,293 --> 00:23:21,613 Speaker 3: don't need to interact with anybody. I think it's just 500 00:23:21,653 --> 00:23:24,973 Speaker 3: a human need to be able to socialize with other 501 00:23:25,013 --> 00:23:27,413 Speaker 3: people as human beings. You know, even people that go 502 00:23:27,453 --> 00:23:29,333 Speaker 3: and live in a log cabin for six months, they 503 00:23:29,373 --> 00:23:31,093 Speaker 3: get lonely. They want to come back and hang out 504 00:23:31,093 --> 00:23:31,573 Speaker 3: with people. 505 00:23:31,893 --> 00:23:34,693 Speaker 2: Don't you think it's interesting that the ultimate punishment in 506 00:23:34,733 --> 00:23:38,653 Speaker 2: prison is solitary confinement, right exactly, that it's not being worked. 507 00:23:39,373 --> 00:23:43,053 Speaker 2: A solitary confinement is the worst thing for humans. And 508 00:23:43,213 --> 00:23:45,093 Speaker 2: you know, I think to a certain extent, working from 509 00:23:45,093 --> 00:23:48,053 Speaker 2: home on yourself is a certain amount of solitary confinement. 510 00:23:48,293 --> 00:23:50,053 Speaker 2: And you might not see it happening to yourself, but 511 00:23:50,133 --> 00:23:53,053 Speaker 2: over time it is. I think it does affect people's moods. 512 00:23:53,533 --> 00:23:56,493 Speaker 2: And I think if you're not unleashing and just in 513 00:23:56,533 --> 00:23:58,253 Speaker 2: the workplace there's a lot of politics, and there's a 514 00:23:58,253 --> 00:24:01,213 Speaker 2: lot of toing and frying and jokes and jostling positioning, 515 00:24:01,253 --> 00:24:03,813 Speaker 2: you unleash a lot of energy that way. I think 516 00:24:03,813 --> 00:24:06,453 Speaker 2: that people that work from home start unleashing that energy 517 00:24:06,493 --> 00:24:09,773 Speaker 2: that they would unleash in the workplace on her partner. 518 00:24:12,253 --> 00:24:15,213 Speaker 12: There's also the other way they interacting when they do 519 00:24:15,293 --> 00:24:18,413 Speaker 12: come home, of them understanding and taking on that little 520 00:24:18,413 --> 00:24:20,973 Speaker 12: bit a load. But the other side of it is 521 00:24:23,093 --> 00:24:25,853 Speaker 12: all my girls are working. They work from home. They 522 00:24:25,893 --> 00:24:31,293 Speaker 12: work in various fields, one in banking and one in 523 00:24:33,373 --> 00:24:35,573 Speaker 12: she's to work in town, but only two days a 524 00:24:35,613 --> 00:24:40,052 Speaker 12: week because of she has got a a two year 525 00:24:40,093 --> 00:24:42,253 Speaker 12: old that needs that. You know, it goes to a 526 00:24:42,413 --> 00:24:45,693 Speaker 12: center and then you know, we do pick ups and 527 00:24:46,293 --> 00:24:48,893 Speaker 12: have them at home so that they can save up 528 00:24:48,933 --> 00:24:50,613 Speaker 12: a bit of money to pay their mortgage. So you've 529 00:24:50,613 --> 00:24:55,013 Speaker 12: got quite interesting discussion that you are having because I 530 00:24:55,053 --> 00:24:58,493 Speaker 12: have a niece who also works from home. She's a 531 00:24:58,533 --> 00:25:03,173 Speaker 12: scheduler for a petrol company. So she schedules nave fuel 532 00:25:03,453 --> 00:25:07,413 Speaker 12: and petrol you know, all up the North Island.

She works from home to her 535 00:25:14,773 --> 00:25:17,853 Speaker 12: mum lives with her who needs a bit of assistance. 536 00:25:19,693 --> 00:25:22,853 Speaker 12: And she is you know, and she can be sick 537 00:25:22,893 --> 00:25:26,053 Speaker 12: with COVID and she will be sitting at her desk working. 538 00:25:26,173 --> 00:25:28,733 Speaker 12: She is like a not so much a workaholic, but 539 00:25:28,853 --> 00:25:33,253 Speaker 12: she you know, she does a job very well and 540 00:25:33,333 --> 00:25:37,133 Speaker 12: she works best from home. And once again, like I 541 00:25:37,173 --> 00:25:40,293 Speaker 12: think Hailey said, for some people. 542 00:25:40,053 --> 00:25:43,253 Speaker 10: To travel by the time you sorry, Liz. 543 00:25:43,653 --> 00:25:46,813 Speaker 12: But for people to travel in from like Auckland and 544 00:25:47,693 --> 00:25:51,413 Speaker 12: Wellington into their workplace, if it's in the city and 545 00:25:51,453 --> 00:25:55,933 Speaker 12: you're out of town, you are wasting you know, a 546 00:25:56,013 --> 00:25:59,573 Speaker 12: couple of hours of productivity either way for our day. 547 00:26:00,093 --> 00:26:01,853 Speaker 2: Thank you so much for cool.

But I appreciate what you're saying. I 550 00:26:05,533 --> 00:26:09,133 Speaker 2: guess that comes into the under the category of you 551 00:26:09,133 --> 00:26:12,813 Speaker 2: could say, harshly, your problems, not your work's problems. So 552 00:26:13,053 --> 00:26:15,173 Speaker 2: it may be convenient for you. You may be able 553 00:26:15,213 --> 00:26:16,933 Speaker 2: to do this stuff, and it's great, and you can. 554 00:26:17,413 --> 00:26:19,333 Speaker 2: You can you can look after your kids and all 555 00:26:19,333 --> 00:26:21,653 Speaker 2: that kind of stuff, and that's fantastic. But if you've 556 00:26:21,653 --> 00:26:25,453 Speaker 2: got a job that's kind of that's a luxury, isn't 557 00:26:25,493 --> 00:26:27,973 Speaker 2: it too, as much as it's hard work, and you 558 00:26:28,013 --> 00:26:31,253 Speaker 2: feel for the people under those intense situations.

If it 565 00:26:48,613 --> 00:26:50,293 Speaker 2: doesn't have to be done in the office, then there's 566 00:26:50,853 --> 00:26:52,573 Speaker 2: then there's people that can pay a lot less around 567 00:26:52,613 --> 00:26:53,253 Speaker 2: the world to do it. 568 00:26:53,213 --> 00:26:55,253 Speaker 3: Ye bang on Oh one hundred and eighty ten eighty 569 00:26:55,293 --> 00:26:57,173 Speaker 3: is the number to call.

This is 597 00:28:28,733 --> 00:28:31,293 Speaker 2: an interesting point here, and this tests me, I like 598 00:28:31,333 --> 00:28:34,253 Speaker 2: when questions test my logic. God, New Zealand has a 599 00:28:34,293 --> 00:28:36,933 Speaker 2: low birth rate with nobody left to pay boomer pensions, 600 00:28:36,933 --> 00:28:39,333 Speaker 2: so your solution seems to be to lock the remaining 601 00:28:39,373 --> 00:28:42,253 Speaker 2: working population into a strict nine to five at the office. 602 00:28:42,373 --> 00:28:44,373 Speaker 2: Makes a little sense, and more courage talented workers to 603 00:28:44,373 --> 00:28:46,613 Speaker 2: go overseas for longer. But that's the point. We do 604 00:28:46,733 --> 00:28:48,573 Speaker 2: need to be having more children in this country. We 605 00:28:48,733 --> 00:28:52,453 Speaker 2: need to be finding ways. So this sits in a 606 00:28:52,453 --> 00:28:54,373 Speaker 2: gray area for me, because I think it's better for 607 00:28:54,413 --> 00:28:56,373 Speaker 2: people to go to work, but I think it's better 608 00:28:56,413 --> 00:29:00,333 Speaker 2: for everyone if we have more children, and we currently 609 00:29:00,413 --> 00:29:03,693 Speaker 2: live in an economy that's very hard to have children, 610 00:29:04,653 --> 00:29:08,293 Speaker 2: you know, with what we're currently expected to do around work. 611 00:29:08,453 --> 00:29:10,253 Speaker 3: I agree, Yes, I agree with that. I mean the 612 00:29:10,293 --> 00:29:13,733 Speaker 3: reason I'm giggling is where you're taking this, is this gonna? 613 00:29:13,773 --> 00:29:16,133 Speaker 3: I mean, is it up to the employer to do 614 00:29:16,173 --> 00:29:18,853 Speaker 3: they need little rooms within the office to say, hey, we. 615 00:29:18,773 --> 00:29:20,893 Speaker 2: Need Lots of countries around the world are doing because 616 00:29:20,893 --> 00:29:22,733 Speaker 2: they've realized, you know, for the longest time, we had 617 00:29:22,733 --> 00:29:24,613 Speaker 2: all this hysteria that there was too many humans on 618 00:29:24,653 --> 00:29:26,893 Speaker 2: the planet, which turned out to be not true. And 619 00:29:27,213 --> 00:29:29,013 Speaker 2: the problem now, the biggest problem facing us now is 620 00:29:29,053 --> 00:29:32,453 Speaker 2: population decline, and that's a huge disasters. So there's a 621 00:29:32,453 --> 00:29:34,173 Speaker 2: lot of countries around the world that are doing everything 622 00:29:34,173 --> 00:29:37,533 Speaker 2: they can to make it possible for families to have 623 00:29:39,453 --> 00:29:43,253 Speaker 2: to bring up more more more than replace themselves, which 624 00:29:43,293 --> 00:29:45,373 Speaker 2: you know, I've had two kids I need to I 625 00:29:45,413 --> 00:29:49,653 Speaker 2: needed to have and I'm not doing the line's share 626 00:29:49,653 --> 00:29:51,853 Speaker 2: of the work when it comes to birthing them, et cetera. 627 00:29:52,373 --> 00:29:54,293 Speaker 2: But you know, to replace it a couple needs to 628 00:29:54,333 --> 00:29:58,213 Speaker 2: have three or four yeah, you know, but meant trying 629 00:29:58,213 --> 00:30:00,573 Speaker 2: to do that in the current economy, you know, and 630 00:30:00,573 --> 00:30:03,813 Speaker 2: and not having some work from home flexibility. 631 00:30:03,973 --> 00:30:07,133 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, would you advocate for having having a 632 00:30:07,253 --> 00:30:11,013 Speaker 3: rejig of of the working hours, so you're still doing 633 00:30:11,053 --> 00:30:13,253 Speaker 3: an eight hour day, but you kind of shift it 634 00:30:13,293 --> 00:30:16,533 Speaker 3: towards making it easier to maybe not have your kit 635 00:30:16,573 --> 00:30:19,133 Speaker 3: at childcare, or it makes it easier to drop them 636 00:30:19,133 --> 00:30:21,413 Speaker 3: off at school or pick them up at a certain time, 637 00:30:21,893 --> 00:30:24,453 Speaker 3: because that would encourage people to say, hey, it's not 638 00:30:24,653 --> 00:30:27,653 Speaker 3: so much of a task to be apparent in terms 639 00:30:27,653 --> 00:30:30,053 Speaker 3: of I've still got to go to work. We're still 640 00:30:30,053 --> 00:30:32,173 Speaker 3: going to have two incomes come into the household. 641 00:30:32,333 --> 00:30:36,253 Speaker 2: Yeah, either that or baby farms.

I mean, farmers technically 645 00:30:45,533 --> 00:30:48,573 Speaker 2: work from home, and they're the hardest workers in the country. 646 00:30:48,613 --> 00:30:51,533 Speaker 3: We certainly need them. Yeah, Josh, how are you this afternoon? 647 00:30:52,493 --> 00:30:52,693 Speaker 13: Yeah? 648 00:30:52,733 --> 00:30:56,893 Speaker 16: Hey boys, Hey maddie'd nice to see your abudding sociologists 649 00:30:56,893 --> 00:31:01,653 Speaker 16: there trying to crack those big issues, are you right? 650 00:31:01,733 --> 00:31:03,133 Speaker 2: Mate? 651 00:31:03,773 --> 00:31:06,453 Speaker 16: We all need three to four kids, you know, who's 652 00:31:06,493 --> 00:31:10,373 Speaker 16: going up again? Who's going to bathe and wash Matt 653 00:31:10,413 --> 00:31:14,533 Speaker 16: when he's paying eighty two or whatever. You're not going 654 00:31:14,573 --> 00:31:18,613 Speaker 16: to have enough enough people. But hey, working working from 655 00:31:18,653 --> 00:31:21,573 Speaker 16: home and office done a bit of both, you know, 656 00:31:21,813 --> 00:31:25,573 Speaker 16: but COVID actually we were solely mainly working from home, 657 00:31:27,533 --> 00:31:32,293 Speaker 16: so basically a lot of our work. If you wanted 658 00:31:32,333 --> 00:31:35,133 Speaker 16: a meeting, if you want to call a meeting, you could. 659 00:31:35,653 --> 00:31:39,893 Speaker 16: But it got kind of difficult because everyone was on autopilot, 660 00:31:39,973 --> 00:31:42,853 Speaker 16: you know. So you're like, are we having that meeting 661 00:31:42,893 --> 00:31:46,453 Speaker 16: on Friday? And then you might get half your team 662 00:31:46,573 --> 00:31:51,453 Speaker 16: saying yeah, we'll meet at the actual workplace on Friday, 663 00:31:51,573 --> 00:31:53,373 Speaker 16: and then two people would miss out. 664 00:31:53,413 --> 00:31:57,093 Speaker 17: So he'd be like, all right, well we'll. 665 00:31:56,173 --> 00:31:58,493 Speaker 16: Postpone the meeting and we'll do it next week. And 666 00:31:58,493 --> 00:32:01,013 Speaker 16: it's just like, oh great, so but. 667 00:32:01,493 --> 00:32:04,933 Speaker 2: No on Friday at four o'clock and then we'll move 668 00:32:04,973 --> 00:32:08,453 Speaker 2: it to the bar. And there was a bit of that. 669 00:32:10,493 --> 00:32:13,813 Speaker 16: It just gets harder because everybody starts to do their 670 00:32:13,813 --> 00:32:18,413 Speaker 16: own their own thing, I mean, within reason. But no, 671 00:32:18,573 --> 00:32:22,413 Speaker 16: I think I think the office workplace is most likely 672 00:32:22,493 --> 00:32:26,653 Speaker 16: more productive because I mean even for me, I'd get 673 00:32:26,653 --> 00:32:29,973 Speaker 16: frustrated because I didn't have a bringing proper scanner or 674 00:32:30,013 --> 00:32:33,813 Speaker 16: a proper printer at hard so you get your work 675 00:32:33,933 --> 00:32:36,173 Speaker 16: ninety five percent done, but there was something else. You 676 00:32:36,253 --> 00:32:39,173 Speaker 16: needed somebody to look at something or whatever, So you 677 00:32:39,333 --> 00:32:41,533 Speaker 16: have to kind of go in to work to meet 678 00:32:41,653 --> 00:32:45,453 Speaker 16: up with that person and to use the office equipment, 679 00:32:47,173 --> 00:32:50,573 Speaker 16: gets set up to do their job and you know, 680 00:32:50,733 --> 00:32:53,613 Speaker 16: reasonable enough coffee. We won't be too critical of it. 681 00:32:53,733 --> 00:32:59,253 Speaker 16: But it was free, so you know. And the other thing, Yeah, 682 00:32:59,453 --> 00:33:03,333 Speaker 16: like that lady was saying, isolation is not good. What 683 00:33:03,413 --> 00:33:07,813 Speaker 16: you don't want people doing is actually kind of even 684 00:33:08,493 --> 00:33:11,933 Speaker 16: creating their own little echo chamber. So that's what we 685 00:33:12,013 --> 00:33:15,053 Speaker 16: figured out. We had pockets of people that were communicating 686 00:33:15,093 --> 00:33:18,773 Speaker 16: well and pockets of groups of people that just weren't 687 00:33:19,253 --> 00:33:22,893 Speaker 16: communicating at all. So that that part of its stuff 688 00:33:22,933 --> 00:33:27,453 Speaker 16: called as well. You want to make sure everybody's still performing, 689 00:33:27,493 --> 00:33:29,693 Speaker 16: everyone's still bringing something to the table. 690 00:33:29,933 --> 00:33:32,853 Speaker 3: Yep, nicely said Josh, Thank you very much for giving 691 00:33:32,893 --> 00:33:33,413 Speaker 3: us a buzz. 692 00:33:33,893 --> 00:33:34,133 Speaker 18: Yeah. 693 00:33:34,373 --> 00:33:36,773 Speaker 2: This text to says, if it's a government job or 694 00:33:36,813 --> 00:33:40,973 Speaker 2: a tax payer funded job, get your ass to the office. 695 00:33:41,373 --> 00:33:45,293 Speaker 2: Yeahs Ryan there, short and sharp and point, and that's 696 00:33:45,293 --> 00:33:48,493 Speaker 2: what Trump's saying exactly. Lots of alcoholics prefer to work 697 00:33:48,493 --> 00:33:49,653 Speaker 2: from home, says this text. 698 00:33:50,133 --> 00:33:50,933 Speaker 3: Are they productive? 699 00:33:51,813 --> 00:33:53,693 Speaker 2: Yeah? Well, I talked about Stephen King before he was 700 00:33:53,693 --> 00:33:56,333 Speaker 2: a terrible colic for a lot of great books. I 701 00:33:56,333 --> 00:33:57,373 Speaker 2: guess it depends on the job. 702 00:33:57,493 --> 00:34:00,093 Speaker 3: Loved his substances and wrote a lot of books. And 703 00:34:00,173 --> 00:34:02,373 Speaker 3: it is a quarter to two beg very shortly. O. 704 00:34:02,373 --> 00:34:04,773 Speaker 3: One hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number to call. 705 00:34:05,973 --> 00:34:09,613 Speaker 1: A fresh take on took back Matt Tayler afternoons with 706 00:34:09,692 --> 00:34:13,493 Speaker 1: the Volvo XC nineteen, turn every journey into something special. 707 00:34:13,652 --> 00:34:17,253 Speaker 4: Have your say on eight hundred eighty ten eighty US Talks. 708 00:34:17,133 --> 00:34:21,013 Speaker 3: B News Talks B thirteen to do some arts thirteen 709 00:34:21,053 --> 00:34:23,212 Speaker 3: to two.

For example, you're talking crap. You 712 00:34:26,853 --> 00:34:29,613 Speaker 2: are generalizing that everyone that works is in the office 713 00:34:29,653 --> 00:34:33,533 Speaker 2: as radio people always seem to do. Yep, talking to you, Tyler, 714 00:34:33,613 --> 00:34:35,813 Speaker 2: your generalization when you see that everyone that works from 715 00:34:35,813 --> 00:34:37,373 Speaker 2: home and sees that more productives lie. 716 00:34:37,453 --> 00:34:39,173 Speaker 3: But carry on that text. What does he say next, 717 00:34:39,293 --> 00:34:41,853 Speaker 3: I'm a grumpy old buster. You go there, you go 718 00:34:42,733 --> 00:34:43,373 Speaker 3: and get. 719 00:34:43,213 --> 00:34:46,573 Speaker 2: Far more done from home, the workshop and a mobile 720 00:34:46,613 --> 00:34:50,533 Speaker 2: surface vehicle than at my dealership where the noises bloody 721 00:34:50,613 --> 00:34:59,333 Speaker 2: rocks radio stations. He probably Buddy Racket Blair and general, 722 00:34:59,333 --> 00:35:01,933 Speaker 2: interruptions are a pain. Yes see, I mean that's a 723 00:35:01,933 --> 00:35:02,333 Speaker 2: good point. 724 00:35:02,373 --> 00:35:02,573 Speaker 18: I do. 725 00:35:02,653 --> 00:35:06,133 Speaker 2: I enjoy the interruptions. Here's another text. I'm a farmer. 726 00:35:06,573 --> 00:35:08,333 Speaker 2: One of the dogs was made to work from home today, 727 00:35:08,533 --> 00:35:10,453 Speaker 2: left her in the kennel with an image of some sheep. 728 00:35:11,573 --> 00:35:13,933 Speaker 2: She was not up to the task. Today. Two others 729 00:35:13,933 --> 00:35:16,093 Speaker 2: went to the office and got so distracted by each 730 00:35:16,133 --> 00:35:18,733 Speaker 2: other we made the wrong hr decisions. 731 00:35:18,933 --> 00:35:19,733 Speaker 3: There you go. 732 00:35:20,813 --> 00:35:23,853 Speaker 2: That's there's the farmer's opinion. I think this is a 733 00:35:23,893 --> 00:35:27,653 Speaker 2: really important text. Yeah, really important, really interesting on nineteen 734 00:35:27,773 --> 00:35:29,613 Speaker 2: nine two. For a lot of industries, it shouldn't be 735 00:35:29,653 --> 00:35:31,893 Speaker 2: about eight hours a day, five days a week. The 736 00:35:31,933 --> 00:35:34,813 Speaker 2: focus needs to be on improving productivity and outputs so 737 00:35:34,893 --> 00:35:37,693 Speaker 2: workers can have greater flexibility to manage work, caring for 738 00:35:37,773 --> 00:35:41,053 Speaker 2: children and caring for aging parents. Businesses need to change 739 00:35:41,053 --> 00:35:44,013 Speaker 2: their mindset from time to actual output. 740 00:35:44,173 --> 00:35:44,373 Speaker 4: Yeah. 741 00:35:44,373 --> 00:35:49,293 Speaker 2: That's an interesting one because yeah, I mean, I guess 742 00:35:49,453 --> 00:35:51,453 Speaker 2: part of the reason why you want people in the 743 00:35:51,533 --> 00:35:54,613 Speaker 2: office is to judge their output and their productivity and 744 00:35:54,653 --> 00:35:57,773 Speaker 2: you find it better. So a workplace just wants you 745 00:35:57,893 --> 00:36:01,533 Speaker 2: to get be productive and get what's done needs to 746 00:36:01,533 --> 00:36:03,493 Speaker 2: be done in a little bit more. 747 00:36:03,573 --> 00:36:06,053 Speaker 3: A lot more easier to mess and I think I think. 748 00:36:05,933 --> 00:36:08,133 Speaker 2: I think a lot of a lot of employers have 749 00:36:08,173 --> 00:36:10,973 Speaker 2: the sneaking suspicion that people aren't as productive and that 750 00:36:11,013 --> 00:36:12,893 Speaker 2: they're self reporting. I mean, anyone that's been to have 751 00:36:12,933 --> 00:36:15,053 Speaker 2: you've seen been to those you wouldn't have because you 752 00:36:15,213 --> 00:36:17,653 Speaker 2: have kids. But you go to school and the kids 753 00:36:17,733 --> 00:36:20,013 Speaker 2: do their parent teacher without the So you go to 754 00:36:20,013 --> 00:36:22,813 Speaker 2: school and the kids do the report on themselves, and 755 00:36:22,853 --> 00:36:24,133 Speaker 2: they go around and tell you what they're up to. 756 00:36:24,333 --> 00:36:25,573 Speaker 3: When did this start? 757 00:36:25,613 --> 00:36:28,933 Speaker 2: I call it a it's called a child lead review, 758 00:36:28,973 --> 00:36:30,693 Speaker 2: I think a child lead And so you go to 759 00:36:30,693 --> 00:36:31,893 Speaker 2: school and just talk to your kid that you can 760 00:36:31,933 --> 00:36:34,853 Speaker 2: talk to at home. I'm calling them a child lead whitewash, 761 00:36:34,853 --> 00:36:35,853 Speaker 2: and what's going on at the school. 762 00:36:36,013 --> 00:36:37,693 Speaker 3: It's crazy. I had no idea they did that. 763 00:36:37,933 --> 00:36:40,293 Speaker 2: So if you're getting someone reporting on their own productivity, 764 00:36:40,813 --> 00:36:43,293 Speaker 2: then it's always going to be a golden report. 765 00:36:43,013 --> 00:36:44,373 Speaker 3: Isn't It's always going to be a plus. 766 00:36:44,533 --> 00:36:46,933 Speaker 2: So if you've got those metrics to actually you know, 767 00:36:47,053 --> 00:36:51,252 Speaker 2: measure metrics to measure productivity, then then probably that becomes 768 00:36:51,293 --> 00:36:54,773 Speaker 2: a lot more important than the actual hours. 769 00:36:54,533 --> 00:36:58,013 Speaker 3: And just quickly, isn't there something about being around your colleagues, 770 00:36:58,013 --> 00:37:00,613 Speaker 3: other workers, and if you see them working hard or 771 00:37:00,613 --> 00:37:03,533 Speaker 3: you're part of a collaborative effort, that makes you work 772 00:37:03,533 --> 00:37:05,493 Speaker 3: harder as well. That's what I worry about when you're 773 00:37:05,493 --> 00:37:08,053 Speaker 3: isolated and you've got a task to do and a 774 00:37:08,093 --> 00:37:10,693 Speaker 3: lot of humans. Maybe not you because you're raw dogging 775 00:37:10,693 --> 00:37:12,533 Speaker 3: at the moment, but for a lot of humans, any 776 00:37:12,613 --> 00:37:15,373 Speaker 3: distraction to take them away from that task, particularly if 777 00:37:15,373 --> 00:37:18,093 Speaker 3: they hate it, they will cling onto you know, I'm 778 00:37:18,093 --> 00:37:20,212 Speaker 3: a feeling about hungry, hungry, what's on the fridge, all 779 00:37:20,253 --> 00:37:22,093 Speaker 3: the vacuum cleaning needs to be done? Or quickly do 780 00:37:22,133 --> 00:37:23,093 Speaker 3: that and then get into the task. 781 00:37:23,173 --> 00:37:24,693 Speaker 2: Well, as I say, I keep going on. I'm watching 782 00:37:24,693 --> 00:37:28,013 Speaker 2: that fantastic show The Terror on TV and Z plus fantastic. 783 00:37:28,053 --> 00:37:31,613 Speaker 2: But they're having to pull some boats full of stuff 784 00:37:31,893 --> 00:37:35,293 Speaker 2: across some snow, and so it's a bunch a group 785 00:37:35,333 --> 00:37:38,533 Speaker 2: of people pulling together and working for each other. There's 786 00:37:38,533 --> 00:37:41,253 Speaker 2: probably something in that that if that if you're with 787 00:37:41,413 --> 00:37:43,773 Speaker 2: other you want you want them to succeed, and you 788 00:37:43,813 --> 00:37:46,172 Speaker 2: want to succeed together, and you become a pack and 789 00:37:46,213 --> 00:37:49,453 Speaker 2: you're all another movie reference, it's like Nemo.

You didn't he 815 00:39:00,653 --> 00:39:02,013 Speaker 2: go around the back of the barn and put a 816 00:39:02,013 --> 00:39:02,733 Speaker 2: bullet and did it. 817 00:39:03,013 --> 00:39:04,933 Speaker 3: I have put it in the kinner with a picture 818 00:39:04,933 --> 00:39:05,333 Speaker 3: of a sheep. 819 00:39:06,933 --> 00:39:10,933 Speaker 10: By the way, Dave, that are reckons. We've reached top population. 820 00:39:11,133 --> 00:39:13,293 Speaker 10: He doesn't reckon we should breathe anymore. 821 00:39:13,573 --> 00:39:16,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, went up and up, and then now the 822 00:39:16,213 --> 00:39:19,812 Speaker 2: UN is as predicting a big drop off coming pretty soon. 823 00:39:20,133 --> 00:39:21,693 Speaker 2: And I mean, you know, there's these areas of the 824 00:39:21,693 --> 00:39:25,252 Speaker 2: world that the population has grown a lot, but New Zealand, boy, 825 00:39:25,293 --> 00:39:28,613 Speaker 2: you look at the population growth in South Korea and Japan. Yeah, 826 00:39:28,693 --> 00:39:32,453 Speaker 2: I mean trouble. In Japan, they're now selling more adult 827 00:39:32,493 --> 00:39:34,772 Speaker 2: diapers than child diapers and that says a lot. 828 00:39:35,253 --> 00:39:37,933 Speaker 10: Yea hey, but don't you reckon like in New Zealand, 829 00:39:38,133 --> 00:39:40,173 Speaker 10: like we make most of our money safe megrant culture 830 00:39:40,173 --> 00:39:43,293 Speaker 10: from cows and stuff like that, and they've ritually got 831 00:39:43,293 --> 00:39:45,413 Speaker 10: as many farms as we can. They're even down the 832 00:39:45,413 --> 00:39:47,693 Speaker 10: South Old. They've got farms down there taking water to 833 00:39:47,733 --> 00:39:49,253 Speaker 10: water them and get thor to day of water and 834 00:39:49,453 --> 00:39:51,652 Speaker 10: somebody else's day the next day of water. So they've 835 00:39:51,693 --> 00:39:56,093 Speaker 10: ritually got it fully fully worked out. Why don't we 836 00:39:56,133 --> 00:39:58,933 Speaker 10: just kick the population as it is, because you know, 837 00:39:59,013 --> 00:40:00,773 Speaker 10: if we need more people coming here are we're going 838 00:40:00,853 --> 00:40:02,853 Speaker 10: to have to make but we're going to have to export, 839 00:40:03,013 --> 00:40:04,293 Speaker 10: make more money from exporting. 840 00:40:05,893 --> 00:40:08,853 Speaker 2: The problems and the problem is the aging population because 841 00:40:08,933 --> 00:40:11,533 Speaker 2: because people moving out of the working stage of their 842 00:40:11,573 --> 00:40:15,253 Speaker 2: life into the non working stage of life, you need 843 00:40:15,293 --> 00:40:17,613 Speaker 2: a whole lot of people coming through that are younger 844 00:40:17,653 --> 00:40:21,733 Speaker 2: to keep the economy going. I mean, go back to Japan. 845 00:40:21,813 --> 00:40:24,133 Speaker 2: The average age of a farmer in Japan is seventy two, 846 00:40:25,013 --> 00:40:27,853 Speaker 2: you know, and that's a problem because you you know, 847 00:40:27,893 --> 00:40:31,613 Speaker 2: you generally you do some great work on the farm 848 00:40:31,653 --> 00:40:34,493 Speaker 2: between you know, about eighteen and I want to say 849 00:40:34,733 --> 00:40:39,013 Speaker 2: sixty then and then it's still farming, and then it 850 00:40:39,053 --> 00:40:41,813 Speaker 2: can get pretty hard. I think, thank you so much 851 00:40:41,853 --> 00:40:42,453 Speaker 2: for you call John. 852 00:40:42,733 --> 00:40:45,973 Speaker 3: Cheers John.

That was 861 00:41:05,053 --> 00:41:06,652 Speaker 2: from October last year. 862 00:41:06,733 --> 00:41:10,173 Speaker 3: Get back to work, stop I mucking around. Right after 863 00:41:10,253 --> 00:41:12,493 Speaker 3: the news, we're going to be talking about shifting the 864 00:41:12,573 --> 00:41:15,652 Speaker 3: summer holiday to fab good idea, bad idea. We're also 865 00:41:15,693 --> 00:41:17,413 Speaker 3: going to have a chat to Peter Dune. He tried 866 00:41:17,453 --> 00:41:19,973 Speaker 3: to push for this back in twenty eighteen, didn't quite 867 00:41:20,013 --> 00:41:22,413 Speaker 3: get it across the line. But we'll find out the 868 00:41:22,453 --> 00:41:23,653 Speaker 3: ins and outs very shortly. 869 00:41:24,573 --> 00:41:28,853 Speaker 1: Your new home for inspful and entertaining talk, It's Maddie 870 00:41:29,013 --> 00:41:33,013 Speaker 1: and Taylor Adams Afternoons with the Volvo XC nighty on 871 00:41:33,173 --> 00:41:34,133 Speaker 1: News Talk SEV. 872 00:41:35,733 --> 00:41:38,213 Speaker 3: Very good afternoon to you. Welcome back into the show. 873 00:41:38,333 --> 00:41:43,293 Speaker 3: Seven past two. So the debates about whether to shift 874 00:41:43,333 --> 00:41:46,933 Speaker 3: the summer break later into the year has been renewed 875 00:41:46,973 --> 00:41:50,053 Speaker 3: to make the best of the beautiful weather we primarily 876 00:41:50,093 --> 00:41:52,172 Speaker 3: get in late jan and February. I mean, we've seen 877 00:41:52,213 --> 00:41:53,212 Speaker 3: it right now, aren't we met? 878 00:41:53,293 --> 00:41:55,053 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, how often do you take your summer 879 00:41:55,053 --> 00:41:57,493 Speaker 2: break and you only get a little bit of holiday 880 00:41:57,573 --> 00:42:01,172 Speaker 2: year and it's rubbish because it's stuck around the end 881 00:42:01,213 --> 00:42:04,813 Speaker 2: of December and the first little bit of January, tumultuous 882 00:42:04,813 --> 00:42:10,173 Speaker 2: times of the year. Everyone knows best months in New 883 00:42:10,253 --> 00:42:12,973 Speaker 2: Zealand of February. Yeah, this comes from an article that 884 00:42:12,973 --> 00:42:16,173 Speaker 2: we read today Wellington in a good day later summer 885 00:42:16,213 --> 00:42:20,373 Speaker 2: break still an idea that's alive. People in Wellington know 886 00:42:20,453 --> 00:42:21,293 Speaker 2: this more than anyone. 887 00:42:21,373 --> 00:42:24,533 Speaker 3: Absolutely starting to get that sunshine now, the poor buggers. 888 00:42:24,813 --> 00:42:27,933 Speaker 2: Yeah. So the difference in temperature from where we take 889 00:42:27,933 --> 00:42:31,253 Speaker 2: holidays now to there in February is almost two degrees 890 00:42:31,573 --> 00:42:35,573 Speaker 2: eighteen point seven to twenty point five, which doesn't sound 891 00:42:35,613 --> 00:42:38,573 Speaker 2: like a lot, but that's a big difference across what 892 00:42:38,653 --> 00:42:40,252 Speaker 2: kind of weather conditions you actually get. 893 00:42:40,333 --> 00:42:44,293 Speaker 3: Icky well, a man who kickstarted a campaign eight years ago, 894 00:42:44,373 --> 00:42:47,533 Speaker 3: back in twenty eighteen to better align the holiday period 895 00:42:47,573 --> 00:42:50,733 Speaker 3: to the summer weather by shifting it later into the 896 00:42:50,893 --> 00:42:53,893 Speaker 3: year is former MP Peter Dunn, who joins us now 897 00:42:53,973 --> 00:42:55,773 Speaker 3: get a Peter, Hello. 898 00:42:55,613 --> 00:42:56,573 Speaker 13: How are you good? 899 00:42:56,613 --> 00:42:58,333 Speaker 2: Thank you, Welcome to the show. So how would this 900 00:42:58,413 --> 00:43:02,413 Speaker 2: work around the Christmas break. Would we break for a 901 00:43:02,453 --> 00:43:05,493 Speaker 2: short Christmas break and then then go back to work 902 00:43:05,533 --> 00:43:07,533 Speaker 2: and then have some time off in February. Is that 903 00:43:07,613 --> 00:43:08,293 Speaker 2: how it worked? 904 00:43:08,693 --> 00:43:08,853 Speaker 8: Well? 905 00:43:09,493 --> 00:43:11,692 Speaker 13: What would be my thinking that you'd have a sort 906 00:43:11,733 --> 00:43:15,853 Speaker 13: of between Christmas and New Year pretty much as we 907 00:43:15,893 --> 00:43:18,373 Speaker 13: do now, then everyone at schools and everyone else go 908 00:43:18,453 --> 00:43:22,613 Speaker 13: back in early January, serve out January, and then break 909 00:43:22,693 --> 00:43:26,893 Speaker 13: for a few weeks over February March before resuming the year. 910 00:43:27,933 --> 00:43:29,893 Speaker 13: I think that there were a lot of advantages. You've 911 00:43:29,893 --> 00:43:32,493 Speaker 13: already referred to the weather being more settled in that period, 912 00:43:32,493 --> 00:43:34,413 Speaker 13: and that's not just you know, it's easy to say 913 00:43:34,413 --> 00:43:36,293 Speaker 13: that this year when we've allows each something, but if 914 00:43:36,293 --> 00:43:39,213 Speaker 13: you look at the data over time, that's a pretty 915 00:43:39,213 --> 00:43:41,973 Speaker 13: consistent message. I think it's got a lot of other 916 00:43:42,013 --> 00:43:45,493 Speaker 13: advantages in terms of productivity. People not having to work 917 00:43:45,533 --> 00:43:49,013 Speaker 13: in the really hot, stifling month of the year, kids 918 00:43:49,093 --> 00:43:52,373 Speaker 13: not being stuck in stuffy classrooms and schools, smelling and 919 00:43:52,413 --> 00:43:54,893 Speaker 13: grumpy teachers headaches and not really want to deal with 920 00:43:54,933 --> 00:43:57,053 Speaker 13: them during that time of the year. The whole lot 921 00:43:57,053 --> 00:43:59,133 Speaker 13: of other things that I think we could more practically 922 00:44:00,133 --> 00:44:02,893 Speaker 13: achieve if we made a change from the alignment now 923 00:44:03,133 --> 00:44:06,173 Speaker 13: having said that it's far easier said than done. I 924 00:44:06,293 --> 00:44:09,133 Speaker 13: readily concede. But I think it's the sort of discussion 925 00:44:09,333 --> 00:44:11,773 Speaker 13: we should be up for having. And I note that 926 00:44:11,813 --> 00:44:14,013 Speaker 13: when it was raised back in twenty eighteen, the then 927 00:44:14,453 --> 00:44:17,293 Speaker 13: Minister of Education, a man by the name of Christopher Hopkins, 928 00:44:17,653 --> 00:44:20,133 Speaker 13: said that he wasn't necessarily opposed to the idea, so 929 00:44:20,173 --> 00:44:22,093 Speaker 13: maybe he could be a champion for it. Who knows. 930 00:44:22,533 --> 00:44:25,893 Speaker 2: So how would this work though, because right now you 931 00:44:25,893 --> 00:44:28,453 Speaker 2: know so would it be Would it make Christmas more 932 00:44:28,533 --> 00:44:30,933 Speaker 2: like Easter where there's a couple of days off. 933 00:44:31,373 --> 00:44:34,013 Speaker 13: Probably along most times. I think you'd probably have Christmas, 934 00:44:34,253 --> 00:44:37,973 Speaker 13: Christmas Eve to New Year as a holiday period and 935 00:44:38,013 --> 00:44:40,453 Speaker 13: then people come back i'd like to do after the 936 00:44:40,493 --> 00:44:42,933 Speaker 13: Yaster break. I think the other thing that's important now, 937 00:44:42,973 --> 00:44:45,253 Speaker 13: and it's even more relevant than it was when the 938 00:44:45,333 --> 00:44:48,453 Speaker 13: idea was first raised, is that people's work patterns have changed. 939 00:44:48,493 --> 00:44:51,533 Speaker 13: Considered it as much more flexibility in what they do, 940 00:44:51,653 --> 00:44:55,533 Speaker 13: so this could be eased in quite gently. Not everyone 941 00:44:55,533 --> 00:44:57,453 Speaker 13: has to cram their holiday period as they used to 942 00:44:57,853 --> 00:45:00,173 Speaker 13: into that period at the start of January. They've got 943 00:45:00,173 --> 00:45:02,773 Speaker 13: a bit more flexibility and there could be more freedom. 944 00:45:02,773 --> 00:45:05,133 Speaker 13: And already have seen people spreading out their holidays and 945 00:45:05,173 --> 00:45:07,413 Speaker 13: tackling at different times of the year, so I think 946 00:45:07,453 --> 00:45:09,453 Speaker 13: this could be accommodat to reasonably easily. 947 00:45:09,773 --> 00:45:11,853 Speaker 3: So the idea would be Peter that if you can 948 00:45:12,053 --> 00:45:14,652 Speaker 3: start with the school holiday, shift those a little bit 949 00:45:14,733 --> 00:45:17,133 Speaker 3: later into February, the hope is that the rest of 950 00:45:17,173 --> 00:45:18,213 Speaker 3: society will follow. 951 00:45:19,213 --> 00:45:21,013 Speaker 13: Yeah, And I don't think it would, as I say, 952 00:45:21,133 --> 00:45:23,613 Speaker 13: be that difficult to challenge. I don't think for schools 953 00:45:23,613 --> 00:45:25,573 Speaker 13: it's a huge problem because I still get the same 954 00:45:25,653 --> 00:45:27,813 Speaker 13: number of days. I'd just be aligned in a different 955 00:45:27,853 --> 00:45:30,373 Speaker 13: way throughout the course of the year and they'd still 956 00:45:30,413 --> 00:45:33,692 Speaker 13: be well they go through December into January rather than 957 00:45:33,693 --> 00:45:36,893 Speaker 13: finishing a little bit earlier. Interestingly enough, when I raised 958 00:45:37,053 --> 00:45:39,973 Speaker 13: all those years ago, the biggest objection came from the 959 00:45:40,013 --> 00:45:42,893 Speaker 13: tourists in New zealandport From what I regarded is the 960 00:45:42,893 --> 00:45:45,173 Speaker 13: most peculiar of reasons. They said, oh, no, you can't 961 00:45:45,213 --> 00:45:48,493 Speaker 13: do this. Why because February and March of the peak 962 00:45:48,533 --> 00:45:50,813 Speaker 13: months for tourists coming to New Zealand, and if you 963 00:45:50,853 --> 00:45:53,013 Speaker 13: had everyone else on holiday at the same time, we 964 00:45:53,053 --> 00:45:55,813 Speaker 13: should simply wouldn't be able to cope. And the tourists 965 00:45:55,813 --> 00:45:58,252 Speaker 13: wouldn't come anymore because they wouldn't be able to be accommodated. 966 00:45:58,573 --> 00:46:00,252 Speaker 13: It seems to me that this is probably a case 967 00:46:00,253 --> 00:46:02,652 Speaker 13: when New Zealander's interests should come a little bit ahead 968 00:46:02,653 --> 00:46:04,453 Speaker 13: of the tourists if the weather's best at that time 969 00:46:04,453 --> 00:46:06,773 Speaker 13: of the year. And what you're really saying is New 970 00:46:06,893 --> 00:46:10,573 Speaker 13: Zealanders can't enjoy it. Can I like it. 971 00:46:10,813 --> 00:46:13,573 Speaker 2: As most people to pick cherries and you have the export, 972 00:46:13,613 --> 00:46:15,853 Speaker 2: but the rest of the rubbish for us. 973 00:46:18,173 --> 00:46:19,853 Speaker 13: To be told, I know, we can't do this because 974 00:46:19,853 --> 00:46:22,133 Speaker 13: it will affect the tourists. I just thought it was 975 00:46:22,173 --> 00:46:22,933 Speaker 13: a bit back to front. 976 00:46:23,213 --> 00:46:26,373 Speaker 2: I guess the big stumbling point here is around productivity 977 00:46:26,413 --> 00:46:29,252 Speaker 2: is Jan one, So whatever happens, you have to work 978 00:46:29,253 --> 00:46:31,732 Speaker 2: it around that that people aren't at work on Jan one, 979 00:46:31,773 --> 00:46:33,453 Speaker 2: because if they are, they're not going to do any work. 980 00:46:34,453 --> 00:46:36,373 Speaker 13: Yeah, well that's right. I mean there will be Look, 981 00:46:36,373 --> 00:46:37,652 Speaker 13: there will be if you would if you was a 982 00:46:37,693 --> 00:46:40,333 Speaker 13: move down this path, there would have to be adjustments made. Yeah, 983 00:46:40,373 --> 00:46:43,773 Speaker 13: there would be little challenges. It wouldn't It couldn't be 984 00:46:43,853 --> 00:46:46,293 Speaker 13: sort of you know. My favorite example is when they 985 00:46:46,413 --> 00:46:49,293 Speaker 13: changed in Sweden from driving on the right side of 986 00:46:49,333 --> 00:46:50,613 Speaker 13: the right no, the left side of the head to 987 00:46:50,653 --> 00:46:53,133 Speaker 13: the right, and they did it overnight chaos ensued. You 988 00:46:53,133 --> 00:46:56,093 Speaker 13: couldn't do that sort of thing, but but you could 989 00:46:56,133 --> 00:46:58,053 Speaker 13: phase it in and you need to get the groups 990 00:46:58,053 --> 00:47:00,413 Speaker 13: on side. And I think that the more people start 991 00:47:00,453 --> 00:47:02,732 Speaker 13: to think about it and just talk about it, the 992 00:47:02,733 --> 00:47:04,813 Speaker 13: more it appeals as an idea. And if it appeals, 993 00:47:05,093 --> 00:47:06,772 Speaker 13: then why not have a crack at trying to do it? 994 00:47:06,853 --> 00:47:09,013 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, no, I think there's something in it and 995 00:47:09,013 --> 00:47:11,853 Speaker 2: as you say, and got on you for pointing that 996 00:47:11,893 --> 00:47:16,692 Speaker 2: out complex, but as an idea, I believe it's it's 997 00:47:16,733 --> 00:47:20,053 Speaker 2: definitely worth trying to beat out and trying to get 998 00:47:20,093 --> 00:47:21,613 Speaker 2: more talk about it. So that's what we'll do over 999 00:47:21,613 --> 00:47:23,973 Speaker 2: the next hour. One hundred eighty ten eighty or nine 1000 00:47:24,053 --> 00:47:26,093 Speaker 2: two nine two is the text number. What do you 1001 00:47:26,093 --> 00:47:29,013 Speaker 2: think about this?

When I was younger, my dad worked for the 1214 00:56:55,613 --> 00:56:59,013 Speaker 21: council and we always went away in the last two 1215 00:56:59,053 --> 00:57:01,333 Speaker 21: weeks of January, and a lot of people were actually 1216 00:57:01,333 --> 00:57:04,133 Speaker 21: coming back. So by the time we were bored with 1217 00:57:04,173 --> 00:57:06,733 Speaker 21: our Christmas presents, it was time to go around holiday. 1218 00:57:06,773 --> 00:57:10,453 Speaker 21: And then we come back from holiday and to school. 1219 00:57:11,053 --> 00:57:12,253 Speaker 2: So what did your dad have to do for the 1220 00:57:12,293 --> 00:57:15,093 Speaker 2: counsel He had to be around for essential services, did he? 1221 00:57:15,613 --> 00:57:18,133 Speaker 21: Yeah, well, he worked through because there's a lot of 1222 00:57:18,133 --> 00:57:21,573 Speaker 21: people wanted time off. He always worked through and then 1223 00:57:22,293 --> 00:57:26,493 Speaker 21: when they had and then they actually when they came back, 1224 00:57:26,613 --> 00:57:29,933 Speaker 21: he had his holiday, so we always had ours in 1225 00:57:29,973 --> 00:57:31,453 Speaker 21: the last two weeks in January. 1226 00:57:31,613 --> 00:57:33,853 Speaker 2: That's a good spot for it. Really, did your dad work? 1227 00:57:33,933 --> 00:57:37,093 Speaker 2: Your dad didn't work Christmas Day though, did he? He 1228 00:57:37,133 --> 00:57:38,453 Speaker 2: didn't work Christmas Day though, did he? 1229 00:57:39,413 --> 00:57:39,613 Speaker 7: No? 1230 00:57:39,613 --> 00:57:41,693 Speaker 21: No, no, no, no, I didn't work the stacks. 1231 00:57:41,773 --> 00:57:45,573 Speaker 2: Yep, good man, they said. 1232 00:57:45,373 --> 00:57:47,693 Speaker 21: The stacks.

In twenty eighteen, Peter Dunn, former MP KICK 1301 01:01:12,493 --> 01:01:15,133 Speaker 3: started a campaign to better align the holiday period with 1302 01:01:15,213 --> 01:01:18,413 Speaker 3: the summer weather by shifting it later into February. He 1303 01:01:19,013 --> 01:01:22,773 Speaker 3: started that petition which got several thousand signatures but kind 1304 01:01:22,773 --> 01:01:24,893 Speaker 3: of died a bit of a death and never went anywhere. 1305 01:01:24,973 --> 01:01:26,413 Speaker 2: Yeah, but someone's trying to start it up in the 1306 01:01:26,413 --> 01:01:30,253 Speaker 2: paper today. Yeah, Andlington on a good day, late summer break. 1307 01:01:30,373 --> 01:01:33,813 Speaker 2: Still an idea that's alive. It's a good article if 1308 01:01:33,853 --> 01:01:35,813 Speaker 2: you want to read it. So what are your thoughts 1309 01:01:35,853 --> 01:01:38,253 Speaker 2: interesting concept to shift the break? Wondering if Australia looking 1310 01:01:38,293 --> 01:01:39,973 Speaker 2: at it as well. Lots of companies operate in New 1311 01:01:40,013 --> 01:01:42,293 Speaker 2: Zealand and Australia. We've had that point from a couple 1312 01:01:42,293 --> 01:01:44,093 Speaker 2: of people and I think that's actually a really good one. 1313 01:01:44,133 --> 01:01:48,013 Speaker 2: And as is always the case on talk back on 1314 01:01:48,093 --> 01:01:50,613 Speaker 2: news talks, he'd be I come up with an iron 1315 01:01:50,693 --> 01:01:54,093 Speaker 2: cloud idea and then someone comes through with the reason 1316 01:01:54,093 --> 01:01:56,133 Speaker 2: that makes it difficult, And that is true. I mean, 1317 01:01:56,173 --> 01:01:58,773 Speaker 2: so many head officers in Australia and you know, New 1318 01:01:58,893 --> 01:02:02,733 Speaker 2: Zealand's got a massive productivity problem as it is. So 1319 01:02:02,813 --> 01:02:05,613 Speaker 2: if we're suddenly in a situation where Australia's on holiday 1320 01:02:05,613 --> 01:02:07,293 Speaker 2: and when they come back to work, we suddenly go 1321 01:02:07,333 --> 01:02:10,413 Speaker 2: on holiday, that is not going to be great for product. 1322 01:02:10,253 --> 01:02:11,933 Speaker 3: So that's the track. We're going to get the Aussies 1323 01:02:11,973 --> 01:02:13,573 Speaker 3: to do it first, and then we can do it 1324 01:02:13,613 --> 01:02:15,653 Speaker 3: and we'll call it their ideas. Yeah, great idea of. 1325 01:02:15,613 --> 01:02:18,173 Speaker 2: S Dallia will follow suit, and that might be above 1326 01:02:19,053 --> 01:02:23,253 Speaker 2: Peter Dunn's ability. So I think it's retired MP to 1327 01:02:23,293 --> 01:02:24,573 Speaker 2: also get Australia. 1328 01:02:24,173 --> 01:02:26,413 Speaker 3: On board this one from Terry's I mean also. 1329 01:02:26,253 --> 01:02:27,853 Speaker 2: Australia's never going to get a board as well because 1330 01:02:27,893 --> 01:02:29,733 Speaker 2: they have great weather no middle one. 1331 01:02:29,613 --> 01:02:33,373 Speaker 3: Yeah exactly, Terry says via text. Some education systems around 1332 01:02:33,413 --> 01:02:38,413 Speaker 3: the world stagger holidays and offer different streams which work brilliantly. 1333 01:02:38,453 --> 01:02:41,173 Speaker 3: The holidays are staggered, so that is another consideration for 1334 01:02:41,253 --> 01:02:45,813 Speaker 3: parents when choosing a school. Tourism operators become major beneficiaries 1335 01:02:46,053 --> 01:02:49,333 Speaker 3: as they have three separate cracks at the holiday season. 1336 01:02:49,533 --> 01:02:53,453 Speaker 3: Consumers win because they aren't fighting for overbooked flights, hotels, etc. 1337 01:02:53,893 --> 01:02:54,493 Speaker 3: Bring it on. 1338 01:02:54,773 --> 01:02:58,133 Speaker 2: Thanks so much for your text, Terry Darryl. You're all 1339 01:02:58,173 --> 01:02:58,533 Speaker 2: for it. 1340 01:02:59,813 --> 01:03:02,653 Speaker 18: Yeah, absolutely, I mean, I think this is a great idea. 1341 01:03:02,813 --> 01:03:05,733 Speaker 18: And my wife's actually a teacher, she's been talking about 1342 01:03:05,773 --> 01:03:07,613 Speaker 18: this for years. Who wants to go on holiday when 1343 01:03:07,613 --> 01:03:08,293 Speaker 18: the weather's crap? 1344 01:03:08,493 --> 01:03:08,853 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1345 01:03:08,933 --> 01:03:12,173 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I mean it's it's not a big call. 1346 01:03:12,373 --> 01:03:14,133 Speaker 18: Like I think if Australia did it, we should do 1347 01:03:14,133 --> 01:03:16,133 Speaker 18: it together. Make it part of it. I mean, this 1348 01:03:16,213 --> 01:03:18,333 Speaker 18: is a bit stupid, but make it part of a 1349 01:03:18,333 --> 01:03:19,693 Speaker 18: pre trade agreement and. 1350 01:03:19,573 --> 01:03:20,013 Speaker 14: Just do it. 1351 01:03:20,093 --> 01:03:23,533 Speaker 18: Like like like, who wants rubbish weather? I'm being straight 1352 01:03:23,613 --> 01:03:25,293 Speaker 18: up here, Like you don't want to go away on 1353 01:03:25,293 --> 01:03:27,333 Speaker 18: holiday and have your ten fly away? That's what happened 1354 01:03:27,373 --> 01:03:28,493 Speaker 18: to our kids over Christmas? 1355 01:03:28,533 --> 01:03:28,973 Speaker 12: Who wants that? 1356 01:03:29,853 --> 01:03:30,013 Speaker 9: Yeah? 1357 01:03:30,093 --> 01:03:32,293 Speaker 2: And the thing is if from a teacher's perspective, as 1358 01:03:32,333 --> 01:03:34,973 Speaker 2: Peter Dunn was saying to us before, they are trying 1359 01:03:35,013 --> 01:03:37,373 Speaker 2: to keep kids in the class in the hottest, hottest 1360 01:03:37,373 --> 01:03:39,693 Speaker 2: months of the year and kids are sitting at the 1361 01:03:39,733 --> 01:03:40,453 Speaker 2: desk sweating. 1362 01:03:41,893 --> 01:03:45,373 Speaker 18: Absolutely, I mean it just this is a really good 1363 01:03:45,413 --> 01:03:47,533 Speaker 18: idea and I tell you it would only take it 1364 01:03:47,533 --> 01:03:50,693 Speaker 18: a decent marketing campaign and both Australia and New Zealand 1365 01:03:51,013 --> 01:03:53,453 Speaker 18: and we'd be away. Like, I honestly don't think it's 1366 01:03:53,453 --> 01:03:56,253 Speaker 18: that at hard. Like you know, businesses we can change 1367 01:03:56,253 --> 01:03:57,933 Speaker 18: when we shut down, if we shut down or what 1368 01:03:57,933 --> 01:04:00,093 Speaker 18: if we do over that period. Some of us stay 1369 01:04:00,133 --> 01:04:02,333 Speaker 18: open right throughout the period because that's the way we 1370 01:04:02,413 --> 01:04:05,493 Speaker 18: do this is this is not hard. 1371 01:04:06,093 --> 01:04:08,373 Speaker 2: I just wonder what would the advantage to Australia be 1372 01:04:08,373 --> 01:04:10,653 Speaker 2: because they have very different weather from us. 1373 01:04:11,453 --> 01:04:14,013 Speaker 18: Well, they already have. I think some of the school 1374 01:04:14,053 --> 01:04:15,933 Speaker 18: holidays are a week out of things. So if you 1375 01:04:15,933 --> 01:04:19,053 Speaker 18: go to the South Island, scaring when those of us 1376 01:04:19,093 --> 01:04:21,853 Speaker 18: take holidays of days outside. So I mean even if 1377 01:04:21,893 --> 01:04:24,453 Speaker 18: you just made it one week apart or however you 1378 01:04:24,493 --> 01:04:26,973 Speaker 18: did it, but I remember, teachers aren't going to lose 1379 01:04:27,013 --> 01:04:28,493 Speaker 18: out here. They're going to get the same amount of 1380 01:04:28,533 --> 01:04:32,653 Speaker 18: holidays because that's their contracts. So yeah, I'm all for it. 1381 01:04:32,733 --> 01:04:35,573 Speaker 18: I just think, hey, it makes sense. I like nice 1382 01:04:35,613 --> 01:04:37,333 Speaker 18: weather when I go awn holiday. It kind of makes 1383 01:04:37,373 --> 01:04:37,933 Speaker 18: it go better. 1384 01:04:38,173 --> 01:04:39,813 Speaker 2: I guess the thing we need if we wanted to 1385 01:04:39,813 --> 01:04:42,253 Speaker 2: make this happen, and look there's some complications, but you 1386 01:04:42,293 --> 01:04:44,413 Speaker 2: need a slogan. That was Peter Dunn's problem. He didn't 1387 01:04:44,453 --> 01:04:45,693 Speaker 2: have a slogan. 1388 01:04:45,733 --> 01:04:45,933 Speaker 13: You know. 1389 01:04:46,333 --> 01:04:48,613 Speaker 2: You know I've never listened in my life because I've 1390 01:04:48,613 --> 01:04:50,733 Speaker 2: brought up with Bear tidy kiwe. 1391 01:04:50,373 --> 01:04:51,253 Speaker 3: New Zealand beautiful. 1392 01:04:51,333 --> 01:04:54,973 Speaker 2: Yeah, you need a slogan. I'm struggling with. 1393 01:04:58,653 --> 01:04:58,933 Speaker 15: The sun. 1394 01:04:59,173 --> 01:04:59,413 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1395 01:04:59,453 --> 01:05:02,173 Speaker 3: Holiday in the sun, yeah. 1396 01:05:01,333 --> 01:05:02,693 Speaker 2: Yeah, holiday in the sun. 1397 01:05:02,813 --> 01:05:03,013 Speaker 9: Yeah. 1398 01:05:03,413 --> 01:05:05,133 Speaker 2: The kind of works.

Where that 1465 01:08:22,452 --> 01:08:25,732 Speaker 22: two weeks when we're getting the mid twenties. And since Christmas, mate, 1466 01:08:25,772 --> 01:08:29,652 Speaker 22: it's been shite and they go on a back flavor warming. 1467 01:08:29,732 --> 01:08:32,532 Speaker 22: So yeah, I reckon. Those slogan should breed those long 1468 01:08:32,772 --> 01:08:38,612 Speaker 22: summer nights from that Grease movie. Bringing back in February. 1469 01:08:40,372 --> 01:08:42,892 Speaker 22: You will you were most people work all year and 1470 01:08:42,933 --> 01:08:45,892 Speaker 22: then they take the holidays over Christmas and they put 1471 01:08:45,973 --> 01:08:49,372 Speaker 22: up with us. I mean, that's got it ripped off. 1472 01:08:49,692 --> 01:08:51,932 Speaker 2: It's gutting, you know, if you've got a very small 1473 01:08:52,173 --> 01:08:55,732 Speaker 2: break and then and then you've got bad weather, it hurts. 1474 01:08:55,853 --> 01:08:58,293 Speaker 2: It hurts you emotionally because you're feeling that you're being 1475 01:08:58,492 --> 01:09:01,213 Speaker 2: being ripped off, because you know, especially that last month 1476 01:09:01,253 --> 01:09:04,732 Speaker 2: before the big holiday, you're just picturing the beach, the sun, 1477 01:09:05,532 --> 01:09:07,213 Speaker 2: picturing all of that, and then you don't get it 1478 01:09:07,253 --> 01:09:08,932 Speaker 2: and you feel I'm about. 1479 01:09:08,772 --> 01:09:10,892 Speaker 3: It trying to set up and. 1480 01:09:13,133 --> 01:09:16,133 Speaker 22: Going to the rich Or in April. So we'll hope 1481 01:09:16,173 --> 01:09:20,732 Speaker 22: to get rid of the sun there. But something needs 1482 01:09:20,732 --> 01:09:22,333 Speaker 22: to be done without a make because I'll tell you what, 1483 01:09:22,372 --> 01:09:23,732 Speaker 22: you work all year and then you have to put 1484 01:09:23,812 --> 01:09:24,053 Speaker 22: up with that. 1485 01:09:24,412 --> 01:09:27,333 Speaker 3: Yeah, while we're starting at right here, right now, Brent, 1486 01:09:27,572 --> 01:09:29,213 Speaker 3: and we're coming up with the slogans and we'll get 1487 01:09:29,213 --> 01:09:32,173 Speaker 3: the billboards painted and we're going to push for it. 1488 01:09:32,293 --> 01:09:35,452 Speaker 3: And we've we've got Peter Dunn on board, so he's hoping, Pete, 1489 01:09:35,812 --> 01:09:36,452 Speaker 3: what do you reckon? 1490 01:09:37,772 --> 01:09:39,933 Speaker 23: Yeah, yeah, I know I reckon leave the way it is, 1491 01:09:40,013 --> 01:09:43,572 Speaker 23: you know, the global things that with the patterns changing, 1492 01:09:43,732 --> 01:09:46,973 Speaker 23: But you keep on changing things, you know, and you're 1493 01:09:46,973 --> 01:09:49,532 Speaker 23: having our Christmas. It's our Christmas break. If you want 1494 01:09:49,532 --> 01:09:52,852 Speaker 23: to have your holiday in February, March or whenever, well, 1495 01:09:52,933 --> 01:09:56,452 Speaker 23: you take your holiday, take your breaks. You're two weeks 1496 01:09:56,532 --> 01:10:00,052 Speaker 23: or two weeks then of your family whatever, Just old 1497 01:10:00,173 --> 01:10:02,173 Speaker 23: nate to suit yourself where you think is the best 1498 01:10:02,173 --> 01:10:04,733 Speaker 23: with it. To sue you, some people there under skiing 1499 01:10:04,853 --> 01:10:08,893 Speaker 23: and all sorts of It's got different holidays seasons for 1500 01:10:09,013 --> 01:10:12,452 Speaker 23: whatever they are into. So you can't please everybody. When 1501 01:10:12,492 --> 01:10:15,492 Speaker 23: does it stop changing things all the time, change it 1502 01:10:15,532 --> 01:10:18,452 Speaker 23: from a three team to a four term. It just 1503 01:10:18,572 --> 01:10:21,213 Speaker 23: carries on, carries on, you know, I think just the 1504 01:10:21,253 --> 01:10:24,293 Speaker 23: way it is fine. Just adapt yourselves to suit your time. 1505 01:10:24,173 --> 01:10:24,932 Speaker 8: You take your break. 1506 01:10:25,173 --> 01:10:27,732 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think what Peter dumm was suggesting, though, and 1507 01:10:28,612 --> 01:10:31,412 Speaker 2: is that you'd move school holidays. That's because that's that's 1508 01:10:31,412 --> 01:10:32,933 Speaker 2: a hard thing to move. And it's one thing that 1509 01:10:32,973 --> 01:10:35,933 Speaker 2: I find really odd that schools are so reticent for 1510 01:10:36,013 --> 01:10:39,133 Speaker 2: you taking your kids away on holidays, because surely there's 1511 01:10:39,173 --> 01:10:42,933 Speaker 2: especially primary school and intermediate. Surely a holiday worth the 1512 01:10:42,933 --> 01:10:45,572 Speaker 2: family is more important than whatever rubbish you're lose losing 1513 01:10:45,572 --> 01:10:48,173 Speaker 2: at school at that age. Yeah, but yeah, I think 1514 01:10:48,213 --> 01:10:51,093 Speaker 2: I think you'd have to. You know, you can take 1515 01:10:51,133 --> 01:10:54,052 Speaker 2: your holidays whenever, but if your kids are back at school, 1516 01:10:54,253 --> 01:10:56,013 Speaker 2: you know that that's the problem. But you know, I 1517 01:10:56,013 --> 01:10:56,532 Speaker 2: get your point. 1518 01:10:56,572 --> 01:10:58,612 Speaker 3: Thanks for your col cheers, Pete. Yeah, just on that. 1519 01:10:58,812 --> 01:11:01,052 Speaker 3: I've got a lot of sympathy for well, the facts 1520 01:11:01,053 --> 01:11:03,372 Speaker 3: that the prices go through the roof during the school holidays, 1521 01:11:03,372 --> 01:11:06,013 Speaker 3: and we get the reason why, supply and demand. But 1522 01:11:06,253 --> 01:11:08,173 Speaker 3: you're quite right taking your kid away for a night 1523 01:11:08,933 --> 01:11:13,012 Speaker 3: holiday somewhere overseas. Surely they're learning a lot during that holiday, 1524 01:11:13,013 --> 01:11:14,772 Speaker 3: aren't they. You're getting a nice break and the kids 1525 01:11:14,812 --> 01:11:15,532 Speaker 3: are learning as well. 1526 01:11:15,732 --> 01:11:18,572 Speaker 2: Yeah. It's funny that concept that we have, and it's 1527 01:11:18,572 --> 01:11:22,492 Speaker 2: been studied a lot by psychologists, is the idea that 1528 01:11:22,612 --> 01:11:24,932 Speaker 2: we always had longer and better summers when we were younger, 1529 01:11:25,372 --> 01:11:27,852 Speaker 2: and it's a thing that we all do. We remember 1530 01:11:27,853 --> 01:11:32,133 Speaker 2: these long, long summers that were incredible. But it's something 1531 01:11:32,133 --> 01:11:36,853 Speaker 2: to do with being young and how your brain's developing, 1532 01:11:36,893 --> 01:11:38,852 Speaker 2: and things seem to take a lot longer time than 1533 01:11:38,893 --> 01:11:41,253 Speaker 2: they did because a lot of things in you. So 1534 01:11:41,293 --> 01:11:43,852 Speaker 2: you might remember a summer holiday when you were camping 1535 01:11:43,853 --> 01:11:45,213 Speaker 2: when you're a kid, and then you find out that 1536 01:11:45,253 --> 01:11:47,333 Speaker 2: you're away for two days, it seems like you're away 1537 01:11:47,372 --> 01:11:48,133 Speaker 2: for a month. 1538 01:11:48,492 --> 01:11:49,972 Speaker 3: Makes a lot of sense when you put it there. 1539 01:11:50,053 --> 01:11:53,572 Speaker 2: So it's interesting when you try and marry the stats 1540 01:11:53,572 --> 01:11:55,692 Speaker 2: with your memories, and it's quite different. Like you'll look 1541 01:11:55,732 --> 01:11:57,253 Speaker 2: back at a holiday and you thought that was the 1542 01:11:57,293 --> 01:12:00,852 Speaker 2: longest summer holiday we went forever, and then you look 1543 01:12:00,893 --> 01:12:01,933 Speaker 2: back at the weather and it was like that was 1544 01:12:01,933 --> 01:12:05,372 Speaker 2: a pretty average summer and your parents went away from 1545 01:12:05,372 --> 01:12:06,652 Speaker 2: about half a day to the beach. 1546 01:12:08,652 --> 01:12:09,333 Speaker 3: This afternoon. 1547 01:12:10,173 --> 01:12:13,532 Speaker 11: Oh hello, yes, I'm fine, thanks, lovely hot sunny day 1548 01:12:13,572 --> 01:12:14,452 Speaker 11: here in Nelson. 1549 01:12:14,732 --> 01:12:15,972 Speaker 2: Oh beautiful Nelson. 1550 01:12:16,973 --> 01:12:20,253 Speaker 11: Yeah, yes, And I just want to make a few 1551 01:12:20,293 --> 01:12:25,452 Speaker 11: comments on this discussion because I'm quite old, and I 1552 01:12:25,492 --> 01:12:27,973 Speaker 11: know it sounds very young, but I'm quite older. And 1553 01:12:28,013 --> 01:12:30,692 Speaker 11: I went to yeah, well I went to school in 1554 01:12:30,732 --> 01:12:35,532 Speaker 11: the forties and fifties, nineteen forties and fifties, and this 1555 01:12:35,692 --> 01:12:39,852 Speaker 11: discussion was being held there. I can distinctly, I can 1556 01:12:39,933 --> 01:12:46,412 Speaker 11: distinctly remember starting high school at in February and sitting there, 1557 01:12:46,452 --> 01:12:50,012 Speaker 11: and I can distinctly remember sitting by the window looking 1558 01:12:50,053 --> 01:12:52,812 Speaker 11: out at the man on the tract to cutting the 1559 01:12:53,013 --> 01:12:57,333 Speaker 11: cricket fields and everything, all of vast green and looking 1560 01:12:57,372 --> 01:13:00,532 Speaker 11: out and it was this hot, hot, sunny day and 1561 01:13:00,612 --> 01:13:03,732 Speaker 11: I was so envious of that man out on the 1562 01:13:03,812 --> 01:13:06,092 Speaker 11: tractor cutting the rugby fields. 1563 01:13:07,812 --> 01:13:10,612 Speaker 2: I've got this memory from being a kid as well, 1564 01:13:10,652 --> 01:13:13,412 Speaker 2: looking at the windows, like most of us have that memory. 1565 01:13:13,053 --> 01:13:16,253 Speaker 11: Of yeah, yeah, and it was hot, hot, hot, And 1566 01:13:16,293 --> 01:13:20,333 Speaker 11: the other memory of Onto and this discussion. I remember 1567 01:13:20,412 --> 01:13:22,692 Speaker 11: this sort of stuff being talked about because the other 1568 01:13:22,772 --> 01:13:25,772 Speaker 11: one that had sprung to mind as the little child 1569 01:13:26,652 --> 01:13:30,053 Speaker 11: was Christmas and we had the Christmas tree and all 1570 01:13:30,772 --> 01:13:33,772 Speaker 11: the trimmings and whatnot. And there was one Christmas when 1571 01:13:33,812 --> 01:13:38,452 Speaker 11: the weather was terrible and there was snow on the 1572 01:13:38,572 --> 01:13:43,093 Speaker 11: Tarkica Hill. It was so yep, there was I'm not 1573 01:13:43,213 --> 01:13:47,133 Speaker 11: making this up, but was snow on the Tarkica Hill. Christmas. 1574 01:13:47,293 --> 01:13:51,012 Speaker 11: It was freezing cold and we couldn't light the fire 1575 01:13:51,133 --> 01:13:56,732 Speaker 11: because the Christmas tree was in the fireplace. And I've 1576 01:13:56,933 --> 01:14:01,652 Speaker 11: never forgotten that memory. So and other memories have come 1577 01:14:01,692 --> 01:14:04,333 Speaker 11: back and people and so the. 1578 01:14:04,333 --> 01:14:06,812 Speaker 2: Christmas tree duty was in the fireplace. So what did 1579 01:14:06,812 --> 01:14:08,012 Speaker 2: the tree go up the chimney? 1580 01:14:08,812 --> 01:14:20,892 Speaker 11: No, in front of the fast there, yes, anyway, and 1581 01:14:21,013 --> 01:14:24,293 Speaker 11: the other one. But I think this doesn't apply now 1582 01:14:24,333 --> 01:14:26,653 Speaker 11: because they have changed. I don't know what the holidays 1583 01:14:26,652 --> 01:14:30,293 Speaker 11: are now. But the other one that always was we 1584 01:14:30,333 --> 01:14:33,892 Speaker 11: had two weeks holiday in May that was okay, and 1585 01:14:33,933 --> 01:14:37,012 Speaker 11: then we had three weeks holiday in August and August 1586 01:14:37,213 --> 01:14:39,732 Speaker 11: was a terrible month at Paud was rain the whole 1587 01:14:39,772 --> 01:14:43,132 Speaker 11: of August and that's when we had three weeks holiday. 1588 01:14:43,173 --> 01:14:46,533 Speaker 11: And I never I thought, well if that was stupid. 1589 01:14:46,933 --> 01:14:50,132 Speaker 11: But anyway, I don't think it's light that now it's changed. 1590 01:14:50,293 --> 01:14:54,852 Speaker 11: But getting back to Christmas and the holidays, I think 1591 01:14:54,853 --> 01:14:59,732 Speaker 11: it's a good idea to separate out Christmas and the 1592 01:14:59,812 --> 01:15:03,692 Speaker 11: summer holidays. I think there's far too much on a 1593 01:15:03,933 --> 01:15:07,692 Speaker 11: family when school is breaking up and you have all 1594 01:15:07,772 --> 01:15:10,372 Speaker 11: the things you have to go to for the end 1595 01:15:10,412 --> 01:15:13,213 Speaker 11: of the school year. At the same time, you're trying 1596 01:15:13,253 --> 01:15:16,213 Speaker 11: to organize Christmas and the grandparents are coming and you 1597 01:15:16,333 --> 01:15:19,253 Speaker 11: are Prikey, and then we're going away on holiday and 1598 01:15:19,293 --> 01:15:22,692 Speaker 11: our krikee and the whole thing is all running all 1599 01:15:22,732 --> 01:15:26,532 Speaker 11: into each other and then Parliament shuts down. But that's 1600 01:15:26,572 --> 01:15:30,213 Speaker 11: when they want you to put in your whatever those 1601 01:15:30,253 --> 01:15:34,412 Speaker 11: things are forgotten, the name, and so much is going on, 1602 01:15:34,612 --> 01:15:37,892 Speaker 11: and I think it's much better to separate out. Okay, 1603 01:15:38,173 --> 01:15:42,372 Speaker 11: we're having Christmas, let's concentrate on that, and then in 1604 01:15:42,412 --> 01:15:44,812 Speaker 11: February we're going to have a nice long holiday and 1605 01:15:44,853 --> 01:15:46,492 Speaker 11: we're going to go to the beach with the tent. 1606 01:15:47,013 --> 01:15:49,372 Speaker 11: So you can put half of what you have to 1607 01:15:49,412 --> 01:15:54,492 Speaker 11: do aside and concentrate on just a certain amount, get 1608 01:15:54,532 --> 01:15:58,012 Speaker 11: it done properly, and then look forward to something else. 1609 01:15:58,093 --> 01:16:01,173 Speaker 11: I think all the stuff that has to happen just 1610 01:16:01,293 --> 01:16:05,253 Speaker 11: in December and January is too much. And also with 1611 01:16:05,452 --> 01:16:09,133 Speaker 11: people how much they have to spend, and you know, 1612 01:16:09,173 --> 01:16:14,093 Speaker 11: you need to have your spending so that it's on Christmas, 1613 01:16:14,133 --> 01:16:15,892 Speaker 11: and then you've got a month and then you've got 1614 01:16:15,893 --> 01:16:18,812 Speaker 11: to spend on your holiday. It's I do think it's 1615 01:16:18,853 --> 01:16:22,652 Speaker 11: a good idea to separate it out and make it 1616 01:16:22,772 --> 01:16:27,293 Speaker 11: easier for everyone to enjoy things throughout the year without 1617 01:16:27,812 --> 01:16:30,932 Speaker 11: all concentrated on one sort of thing. Then we get 1618 01:16:30,973 --> 01:16:34,533 Speaker 11: all told off because we haven't followed politics exactly. 1619 01:16:34,772 --> 01:16:37,933 Speaker 2: Je well make some powerful points their journey. Thank you 1620 01:16:37,973 --> 01:16:38,333 Speaker 2: so much. 1621 01:16:38,333 --> 01:16:40,133 Speaker 3: We need to send duty down to Parliament to make 1622 01:16:40,133 --> 01:16:43,093 Speaker 3: the case because she made that beautifully. Oh eight hundred 1623 01:16:43,093 --> 01:16:44,572 Speaker 3: and eighty teen eighty is the number to call. 1624 01:16:44,652 --> 01:16:46,492 Speaker 2: I've got this text here.

I hope you're having a great Wednesday. 1696 01:20:18,492 --> 01:20:22,212 Speaker 3: We certainly are. Now, there was something that you mentioned 1697 01:20:22,213 --> 01:20:24,692 Speaker 3: to me this week, met that you've been doing that 1698 01:20:25,093 --> 01:20:27,732 Speaker 3: I thought was a little bit weird, if I'm being honest. 1699 01:20:27,893 --> 01:20:30,492 Speaker 3: You caught it raw dogging. Well that was what the 1700 01:20:30,492 --> 01:20:31,253 Speaker 3: internet called it. 1701 01:20:31,333 --> 01:20:32,452 Speaker 2: Well, no raw dogging, was it? 1702 01:20:32,452 --> 01:20:32,612 Speaker 18: Well? 1703 01:20:32,692 --> 01:20:35,452 Speaker 2: RD dog getting started off as something quite different, which 1704 01:20:35,452 --> 01:20:38,532 Speaker 2: we won't go into. You know, no judgment, but we 1705 01:20:38,532 --> 01:20:41,892 Speaker 2: won't go into it. But when people started talking about 1706 01:20:41,893 --> 01:20:44,812 Speaker 2: the raw dogging craze last year, it was around you 1707 01:20:44,812 --> 01:20:47,973 Speaker 2: know how, going on international flights or long flights and 1708 01:20:48,973 --> 01:20:52,892 Speaker 2: you know, not not having headphones and not watching movies, 1709 01:20:53,133 --> 01:20:55,532 Speaker 2: just being in your own space for that time. And look, 1710 01:20:55,532 --> 01:20:58,173 Speaker 2: I'm looking at this R and Z article here, and 1711 01:20:58,173 --> 01:21:01,572 Speaker 2: they seem to be slamming into some kind of toxic 1712 01:21:02,253 --> 01:21:04,333 Speaker 2: masculinity thing. But that wasn't what it was about at all. 1713 01:21:04,372 --> 01:21:07,053 Speaker 2: I don't know what Irenzeed's saying here, but anyway, it 1714 01:21:07,133 --> 01:21:10,053 Speaker 2: wasn't really about that, you know. The headline said raw 1715 01:21:10,093 --> 01:21:14,013 Speaker 2: dog and flight trend may portray portray masculinity online. 1716 01:21:14,452 --> 01:21:16,452 Speaker 3: But it's kind of a weird headline. 1717 01:21:16,452 --> 01:21:18,532 Speaker 2: It's a weird headline. Why wouldn't you portray Why wouldn't 1718 01:21:18,532 --> 01:21:21,532 Speaker 2: you portray masculinity? Nothing wrong with masculinity, I mean, I 1719 01:21:21,532 --> 01:21:23,652 Speaker 2: think that's crazy for a ten hour flight, they have 1720 01:21:23,772 --> 01:21:27,173 Speaker 2: no distractions. But the wider point of is what the 1721 01:21:27,213 --> 01:21:28,892 Speaker 2: hell has happened to us? Will we have to be 1722 01:21:29,093 --> 01:21:30,812 Speaker 2: entertained so much all the time? And I was talking 1723 01:21:30,812 --> 01:21:32,972 Speaker 2: about the start of the show. It's TV show I'm 1724 01:21:32,973 --> 01:21:37,093 Speaker 2: watching called the TERRAEP which is which is on TV 1725 01:21:37,133 --> 01:21:37,932 Speaker 2: and Z plus and. 1726 01:21:37,973 --> 01:21:39,293 Speaker 3: The Search for the Northern Passage. 1727 01:21:39,412 --> 01:21:43,452 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, and just some ships caught in the 1728 01:21:43,532 --> 01:21:47,452 Speaker 2: mid eighteen fifty around that time in ice for three seasons, 1729 01:21:47,492 --> 01:21:50,253 Speaker 2: three you know, three winters. So they're stuck in ice 1730 01:21:50,333 --> 01:21:55,012 Speaker 2: just eating canned food, these sailors. And then then we're 1731 01:21:55,213 --> 01:21:59,532 Speaker 2: marveling to the point where where Radio New Zealand is 1732 01:21:59,572 --> 01:22:02,652 Speaker 2: saying it's a shocking example of a masculinity to sit 1733 01:22:02,732 --> 01:22:05,293 Speaker 2: there for ten hours on a flight without an entertainment. 1734 01:22:05,532 --> 01:22:09,013 Speaker 2: I mean, what has happened to us. I mean, you know, 1735 01:22:09,572 --> 01:22:12,293 Speaker 2: we're so over entertained now, We've just got so much 1736 01:22:12,333 --> 01:22:14,652 Speaker 2: input coming in that I think it's addling our brains. 1737 01:22:14,853 --> 01:22:16,852 Speaker 2: So whilst I'm not doing it on an international flight, 1738 01:22:16,893 --> 01:22:20,892 Speaker 2: although I have done it on domestic flights, just not 1739 01:22:21,532 --> 01:22:24,812 Speaker 2: consuming anything and just being in your own thoughts is 1740 01:22:25,732 --> 01:22:28,013 Speaker 2: quite empowering. So now, I mean, this morning I ran 1741 01:22:28,492 --> 01:22:34,333 Speaker 2: seven k seven k run, a shocking example of toxic masculinity. No, 1742 01:22:34,412 --> 01:22:37,372 Speaker 2: I went from a seven k run and didn't have 1743 01:22:37,372 --> 01:22:41,172 Speaker 2: any headphones and didn't just was listening to the birds 1744 01:22:41,213 --> 01:22:44,612 Speaker 2: and looking at the trees and just running in my 1745 01:22:44,692 --> 01:22:47,933 Speaker 2: own thoughts. This is meditative and I also do that 1746 01:22:47,973 --> 01:22:49,293 Speaker 2: for the gym. Now when I go to the gym, 1747 01:22:49,333 --> 01:22:51,372 Speaker 2: I don't take headphones. Everyone else in the gym's on 1748 01:22:51,372 --> 01:22:54,492 Speaker 2: the headphones. But I think working out and just spending 1749 01:22:54,532 --> 01:22:58,172 Speaker 2: time in your own mind while you're doing something positive 1750 01:22:58,973 --> 01:23:01,932 Speaker 2: and you know, testing your muscles all that kind of stuff, 1751 01:23:02,652 --> 01:23:04,492 Speaker 2: is that should be more more than enough, and we 1752 01:23:04,492 --> 01:23:06,253 Speaker 2: should be worried that we can't do that. 1753 01:23:06,253 --> 01:23:08,093 Speaker 3: Even in the gym, Even in the gym where there's 1754 01:23:08,093 --> 01:23:11,253 Speaker 3: no birds chirping, there's no sunset to really see, you 1755 01:23:11,412 --> 01:23:14,892 Speaker 3: just hear the sound of weights clanging and people runting. 1756 01:23:15,053 --> 01:23:16,972 Speaker 3: There's more than enough for ripping on the treadmill. 1757 01:23:17,053 --> 01:23:19,892 Speaker 2: There's more. There's more than enough. But I just don't 1758 01:23:19,933 --> 01:23:21,692 Speaker 2: think that people can. I've got this text here because 1759 01:23:21,692 --> 01:23:24,013 Speaker 2: we bought it up before Hi, Matt and Tyler. I 1760 01:23:24,133 --> 01:23:27,092 Speaker 2: run every second day at five point thirty am, normally 1761 01:23:27,452 --> 01:23:30,372 Speaker 2: thirteen to fourteen k's. I never take music with me. 1762 01:23:30,492 --> 01:23:33,093 Speaker 2: I listen to the new Day starting two He's seagulls 1763 01:23:33,133 --> 01:23:35,812 Speaker 2: or whatever else nature throws at me. My brain is 1764 01:23:35,812 --> 01:23:39,013 Speaker 2: free to rhame. You feel so much better for the 1765 01:23:39,093 --> 01:23:42,053 Speaker 2: run and more alive. Heading towards seventy three years this year. 1766 01:23:42,293 --> 01:23:45,972 Speaker 2: Another thing my running, Sorry just blah blah blah blah blah. 1767 01:23:46,612 --> 01:23:48,452 Speaker 2: Not the blah blah blah to the person that's a 1768 01:23:48,452 --> 01:23:50,213 Speaker 2: great text, but blah blah blah. As I'm just going 1769 01:23:50,253 --> 01:23:52,213 Speaker 2: to say that, I'm trying to open the text of 1770 01:23:52,293 --> 01:23:55,253 Speaker 2: Minister fail on the technology.

Yeah, I'm not sure. 1773 01:24:01,772 --> 01:24:04,133 Speaker 2: I think he means alcohol is really really drunk in 1774 01:24:04,173 --> 01:24:05,452 Speaker 2: his life, not well he's running. 1775 01:24:05,612 --> 01:24:07,933 Speaker 3: Yeah, but clearly he is someone for a lack of 1776 01:24:07,933 --> 01:24:10,093 Speaker 3: a better let's call it raw dogging, because that's what 1777 01:24:10,133 --> 01:24:12,053 Speaker 3: the internet has picked up. This tree and going on 1778 01:24:12,053 --> 01:24:15,492 Speaker 3: the flight ten hours and not having any distractions. It's 1779 01:24:15,492 --> 01:24:17,772 Speaker 3: effectively what you're doing. I like the logic of it. 1780 01:24:17,853 --> 01:24:20,132 Speaker 3: And as I said a little bit earlier on the show, 1781 01:24:20,293 --> 01:24:21,772 Speaker 3: I do it when I walk the dog. But my 1782 01:24:21,933 --> 01:24:24,653 Speaker 3: dog's my distraction there.

And I and I've spent a lot 1786 01:24:33,772 --> 01:24:37,253 Speaker 2: of time stiffing around like it sounds doesn't sound great 1787 01:24:37,293 --> 01:24:39,812 Speaker 2: saying that, but yeah, I mean that what's the difference then, 1788 01:24:39,933 --> 01:24:42,692 Speaker 2: I mean, you're walking your dog, you're at the gym. 1789 01:24:42,732 --> 01:24:44,812 Speaker 2: I just think people, and I'd love to hear from 1790 01:24:44,812 --> 01:24:47,492 Speaker 2: people on eight hundred and eighty ten eighty nine two 1791 01:24:47,612 --> 01:24:51,093 Speaker 2: nine two on the text, you know, can you do that? 1792 01:24:51,853 --> 01:24:53,932 Speaker 2: Or are you worried that you can't go for all? 1793 01:24:53,973 --> 01:24:57,333 Speaker 2: Can you go for a walk even without entertainment or 1794 01:24:57,333 --> 01:24:59,812 Speaker 2: do you have to mess around and find a podcast 1795 01:24:59,812 --> 01:25:02,892 Speaker 2: to put into your ears? I mean, isn't that concerning 1796 01:25:02,933 --> 01:25:05,412 Speaker 2: that you can't leave the house. I mean, I used 1797 01:25:05,412 --> 01:25:06,692 Speaker 2: to be so bad that I wouldn't be able to 1798 01:25:06,692 --> 01:25:08,892 Speaker 2: go to the bathroom, Like I'd need to do my 1799 01:25:08,973 --> 01:25:11,093 Speaker 2: business and I'd go, well, I can't spend time on 1800 01:25:11,133 --> 01:25:13,492 Speaker 2: myself doing my business. I need to get my phone 1801 01:25:13,492 --> 01:25:16,292 Speaker 2: so I can check social media while I'm there, you know. Yeah, 1802 01:25:16,333 --> 01:25:19,093 Speaker 2: And now I mean, people, we don't want to hear this, 1803 01:25:19,213 --> 01:25:21,692 Speaker 2: but now I'm raw dogging the bathroom. I just go 1804 01:25:21,772 --> 01:25:22,612 Speaker 2: and do my business. 1805 01:25:22,652 --> 01:25:24,652 Speaker 3: You know, there is something sad about that when I 1806 01:25:24,772 --> 01:25:26,532 Speaker 3: you know, I didn't have my phone for whatever reason, 1807 01:25:26,612 --> 01:25:29,093 Speaker 3: when I went to the bathroom and I resorted to 1808 01:25:29,173 --> 01:25:31,452 Speaker 3: reading the back of the toilet paper just to see 1809 01:25:31,492 --> 01:25:34,333 Speaker 3: where it was made. I'm like, geez, what's happened to me? 1810 01:25:34,333 --> 01:25:35,812 Speaker 3: But I can't even go to the toilet. I think 1811 01:25:35,853 --> 01:25:38,772 Speaker 3: people are becoming scared of their own thoughts. They're scared 1812 01:25:38,772 --> 01:25:42,293 Speaker 3: of being on their own. People are so terrified of boredom. 1813 01:25:42,893 --> 01:25:46,173 Speaker 2: And I think until you embrace boredom, you're not really 1814 01:25:46,213 --> 01:25:49,652 Speaker 2: embracing yourself. Because from boredom comes great ideas. You know. 1815 01:25:49,853 --> 01:25:53,173 Speaker 2: Jimmy Hendrix famously created as an incredible guitar playing style 1816 01:25:53,213 --> 01:25:55,093 Speaker 2: because he was so bored of playing and bands like 1817 01:25:55,133 --> 01:26:00,612 Speaker 2: Evely Brothers and such. You know, Isaac Newton he came 1818 01:26:00,692 --> 01:26:03,253 Speaker 2: up with Hang on a minute, what did he come 1819 01:26:03,293 --> 01:26:04,052 Speaker 2: up with exactly? 1820 01:26:04,173 --> 01:26:06,852 Speaker 3: I know what a lot of the us are, but 1821 01:26:06,933 --> 01:26:08,932 Speaker 3: what actually was the exact. 1822 01:26:08,692 --> 01:26:10,972 Speaker 2: One when he was so bored hiding from the plague 1823 01:26:10,973 --> 01:26:14,532 Speaker 2: that he came up with with It was Eldre just 1824 01:26:14,532 --> 01:26:16,173 Speaker 2: said I've got to work out out. I'll get back 1825 01:26:16,213 --> 01:26:16,812 Speaker 2: to you on that when I can. 1826 01:26:16,973 --> 01:26:19,172 Speaker 3: That is different though from him. He was just enjoying 1827 01:26:19,213 --> 01:26:21,093 Speaker 3: a nice stay sitting under the apple tree. Then the 1828 01:26:21,093 --> 01:26:22,532 Speaker 3: apple fell on his head and he came up with 1829 01:26:22,572 --> 01:26:23,133 Speaker 3: Newton's law. 1830 01:26:23,213 --> 01:26:26,412 Speaker 2: Right, yeah, yeah, no, that wasn't Newton's law. This isn't 1831 01:26:26,572 --> 01:26:30,892 Speaker 2: you know, I'm being pedantic here. Calculus Sorry, he invented 1832 01:26:30,933 --> 01:26:33,652 Speaker 2: calculus in sixteen sixty three because he was bored. Yeah, 1833 01:26:33,692 --> 01:26:36,333 Speaker 2: you know, And so if he had had his headphones 1834 01:26:36,333 --> 01:26:39,053 Speaker 2: on rocking around their guard and he wouldn't have come 1835 01:26:39,133 --> 01:26:42,333 Speaker 2: up with calculus. So being bored can be a creative 1836 01:26:42,372 --> 01:26:44,692 Speaker 2: thing leads you towards creativity o. E. 1837 01:26:44,732 --> 01:26:46,452 Speaker 3: One hundred and eighty ten eighty If you do what 1838 01:26:46,492 --> 01:26:48,532 Speaker 3: Matt does love to hear from you or if you 1839 01:26:48,572 --> 01:26:50,213 Speaker 3: think it's a bit mad, like I do love to 1840 01:26:50,253 --> 01:26:52,053 Speaker 3: hear from you as well. Nine two niney two is 1841 01:26:52,093 --> 01:26:54,532 Speaker 3: the text number, just quickly before we go to the 1842 01:26:54,532 --> 01:26:55,732 Speaker 3: break and get to some phone calls. 1843 01:26:55,893 --> 01:26:56,093 Speaker 2: Yep. 1844 01:26:56,293 --> 01:26:58,492 Speaker 3: Do you think I'm fooling myself when I say that 1845 01:26:58,652 --> 01:27:01,013 Speaker 3: sometimes when I do these activities and I put on, 1846 01:27:01,173 --> 01:27:05,133 Speaker 3: say an audio book, that I think I'm learning that 1847 01:27:05,452 --> 01:27:08,333 Speaker 3: at that time, I'm using that time effectively to learn 1848 01:27:08,452 --> 01:27:11,412 Speaker 3: about something new. You think that I'm probably fooling myself 1849 01:27:11,412 --> 01:27:12,012 Speaker 3: most of the time. 1850 01:27:12,173 --> 01:27:14,652 Speaker 2: No, I think there's there's room for that, but you 1851 01:27:14,933 --> 01:27:17,692 Speaker 2: shouldn't need it, That's what I'm saying. Like, if you 1852 01:27:17,732 --> 01:27:19,492 Speaker 2: want to if you want to listen to an audiobook 1853 01:27:19,532 --> 01:27:22,492 Speaker 2: or read, you know, reading a book's obviously fantastic. I'm 1854 01:27:22,492 --> 01:27:23,972 Speaker 2: a huge fan of that. I'm going to go against that. 1855 01:27:24,452 --> 01:27:26,333 Speaker 2: But if you feel like you cannot go and do 1856 01:27:26,412 --> 01:27:29,173 Speaker 2: something without an audiobook on or a podcast in your ears, 1857 01:27:29,812 --> 01:27:31,972 Speaker 2: or music or something, then I think that's the problem. 1858 01:27:32,053 --> 01:27:34,693 Speaker 2: If you don't can't be comfortable in your own thoughts. 1859 01:27:34,973 --> 01:27:38,612 Speaker 2: You know, it's astinque what I'm saying. You know, like, yeah, yeah, 1860 01:27:38,652 --> 01:27:41,253 Speaker 2: I mean audiobook great, but if you need it, that's 1861 01:27:41,253 --> 01:27:41,732 Speaker 2: the problem. 1862 01:27:41,772 --> 01:27:45,372 Speaker 3: Oh ten eighty, let's get into this. It is fourteen 1863 01:27:45,412 --> 01:27:51,293 Speaker 3: past three, seventeen past three.

Yeah, there's a text here here. I 1868 01:28:01,452 --> 01:28:04,253 Speaker 2: walk a lot, but never have any accompanying noise, even 1869 01:28:04,293 --> 01:28:07,572 Speaker 2: at home.

Never 1886 01:28:50,692 --> 01:28:54,133 Speaker 3: have music. It's great for a businessman's mind to just 1887 01:28:54,173 --> 01:28:56,972 Speaker 3: get clear space to work out the next great idea, 1888 01:28:57,093 --> 01:29:00,052 Speaker 3: to solve issues, or even just to see the greatness 1889 01:29:00,053 --> 01:29:02,372 Speaker 3: of nature.

So you you run about, you know, thirteen 1898 01:29:25,572 --> 01:29:27,772 Speaker 2: to fourteen kilometers a day, and you never take music 1899 01:29:27,812 --> 01:29:28,093 Speaker 2: at all. 1900 01:29:29,173 --> 01:29:32,372 Speaker 9: And I never don't believe in music on runs. Runs. 1901 01:29:32,532 --> 01:29:35,892 Speaker 9: Runs are purely for the soul and mind and everything else. 1902 01:29:35,893 --> 01:29:38,612 Speaker 9: And that's a good good way of clearing your head. Yeah, 1903 01:29:39,013 --> 01:29:41,572 Speaker 9: not just for business, but just for everyday life. 1904 01:29:41,572 --> 01:29:45,053 Speaker 2: I think, yeah, and so and you.

It's always 1913 01:30:07,333 --> 01:30:09,892 Speaker 9: thinking of things and what to do, and you know, 1914 01:30:10,572 --> 01:30:16,333 Speaker 9: visualizing things. And when I was working, you know, full 1915 01:30:16,372 --> 01:30:18,732 Speaker 9: time and stuff like I'm retired now, I'm seventy two. 1916 01:30:19,692 --> 01:30:23,572 Speaker 9: When I was working full time, I was doing spec 1917 01:30:23,612 --> 01:30:25,892 Speaker 9: building for once, and I was doing past streen Sous, 1918 01:30:26,293 --> 01:30:29,972 Speaker 9: I was doing my shares as well. And I'd often 1919 01:30:30,812 --> 01:30:33,253 Speaker 9: when I was running, I'd come up with things in 1920 01:30:33,253 --> 01:30:37,412 Speaker 9: my head or I'd have something I was doing I 1921 01:30:37,452 --> 01:30:40,652 Speaker 9: was trying to solve, and when you're looking at something, 1922 01:30:40,973 --> 01:30:43,892 Speaker 9: you get tunnel vision. When you get out there on 1923 01:30:43,933 --> 01:30:46,093 Speaker 9: a run, you're you're just your heads clear and you, 1924 01:30:46,452 --> 01:30:50,253 Speaker 9: as I say, your your your senses that you know 1925 01:30:50,333 --> 01:30:52,612 Speaker 9: after like I was doing years ago, I was doing 1926 01:30:52,652 --> 01:30:56,692 Speaker 9: really high mileage and I'll be running mostly fifteen twenty 1927 01:30:56,812 --> 01:31:02,532 Speaker 9: k's a day almost and your senses are on right 1928 01:31:02,572 --> 01:31:06,532 Speaker 9: on the high side, and you'd hear people in the distance. 1929 01:31:06,572 --> 01:31:10,053 Speaker 9: You couldn't hear. It's just so it sounds like even 1930 01:31:10,133 --> 01:31:11,772 Speaker 9: the morning. Part of the reason I got out in 1931 01:31:11,812 --> 01:31:14,173 Speaker 9: the morning now is I listened to the toy. So 1932 01:31:14,173 --> 01:31:16,133 Speaker 9: I talked to the toys. Sometimes I whistle to them 1933 01:31:16,133 --> 01:31:20,532 Speaker 9: and teach them a new tune. I've got one. He's 1934 01:31:20,652 --> 01:31:22,492 Speaker 9: he is trying to practice a tune the other day 1935 01:31:22,612 --> 01:31:24,973 Speaker 9: and he could. He got the third note rong all 1936 01:31:25,013 --> 01:31:25,372 Speaker 9: the time. 1937 01:31:27,093 --> 01:31:27,692 Speaker 3: It's impresive. 1938 01:31:28,213 --> 01:31:30,732 Speaker 9: Yeah, I don't think they could talk, but they can 1939 01:31:30,812 --> 01:31:34,012 Speaker 9: limit you. Yes, And we did a lot of tramping, 1940 01:31:34,093 --> 01:31:35,372 Speaker 9: and I used to do the same thing with the bush. 1941 01:31:35,372 --> 01:31:40,412 Speaker 9: It was quite funny. But yes, So you think about 1942 01:31:40,532 --> 01:31:45,013 Speaker 9: things and you you solve problems. Things that seemed so 1943 01:31:45,133 --> 01:31:47,133 Speaker 9: hard when I was out there, and all of a 1944 01:31:47,133 --> 01:31:48,852 Speaker 9: sudden come up with a thought. And well, you came 1945 01:31:48,933 --> 01:31:51,333 Speaker 9: up with some idea and next day you say to 1946 01:31:51,372 --> 01:31:53,372 Speaker 9: your mates, so what do you think of this? That's 1947 01:31:53,412 --> 01:31:56,852 Speaker 9: which you could get from. And I said, I just 1948 01:31:56,933 --> 01:31:59,492 Speaker 9: I come up with these things. And but as I say, 1949 01:32:00,293 --> 01:32:06,333 Speaker 9: solved problems. Clear your head. But you know, I said 1950 01:32:06,492 --> 01:32:08,852 Speaker 9: in a text here, I didn't. I used to drink 1951 01:32:08,893 --> 01:32:12,053 Speaker 9: quite a lot when I was younger, we used to 1952 01:32:12,053 --> 01:32:16,932 Speaker 9: party all the time. But then I think when I've 1953 01:32:17,213 --> 01:32:20,053 Speaker 9: actually stopped drinking was when one day a guy said 1954 01:32:20,093 --> 01:32:21,973 Speaker 9: to me. I said, I said, I'm not going to 1955 01:32:22,013 --> 01:32:24,852 Speaker 9: drink spirits anymore, and I'm going to cut it back 1956 01:32:24,853 --> 01:32:26,612 Speaker 9: in my drink. And he said, what's wrong with you? 1957 01:32:26,612 --> 01:32:29,013 Speaker 9: You're not a man anymore. I said, have to be 1958 01:32:29,053 --> 01:32:34,013 Speaker 9: a drinking to be a man. And well, so you 1959 01:32:34,253 --> 01:32:36,732 Speaker 9: find out who your friends start sometimes and often those 1960 01:32:36,772 --> 01:32:40,213 Speaker 9: friends you drink with, if you don't drink with them, 1961 01:32:40,452 --> 01:32:43,972 Speaker 9: they don't want to know you. And I thought, that's less, 1962 01:32:44,013 --> 01:32:48,612 Speaker 9: not a real friendship. And anyway that when I started 1963 01:32:48,652 --> 01:32:52,173 Speaker 9: doing the running, I found my drinking was just got 1964 01:32:52,253 --> 01:32:54,293 Speaker 9: less and less. And I'll go to a party. I've 1965 01:32:54,333 --> 01:32:56,973 Speaker 9: taken two little stuffies or something, and people said, oh, 1966 01:32:57,173 --> 01:32:58,973 Speaker 9: where's your booties And I said, let's it there and 1967 01:32:59,013 --> 01:33:00,932 Speaker 9: they said there's only a bottle or two bottles. I said, 1968 01:33:00,973 --> 01:33:02,932 Speaker 9: Ye'll be lucky if I drink one of them. They 1969 01:33:02,973 --> 01:33:05,412 Speaker 9: didn't think I was. But you know, you went to 1970 01:33:05,452 --> 01:33:08,972 Speaker 9: the party, and I enjoyed the party more than I 1971 01:33:09,053 --> 01:33:13,013 Speaker 9: used to because so I said, signed it high all 1972 01:33:13,053 --> 01:33:16,532 Speaker 9: the time and people look at you, and I said, 1973 01:33:16,532 --> 01:33:21,253 Speaker 9: what's wrong. You're different when you're changed. What's different? And 1974 01:33:21,293 --> 01:33:24,133 Speaker 9: they said your eyes are different. I said, I said, 1975 01:33:24,732 --> 01:33:26,612 Speaker 9: I'm doing a lot of running. I said, I'm focused. 1976 01:33:26,772 --> 01:33:29,412 Speaker 9: I said, you know, everything is just as clear as daylight. 1977 01:33:29,532 --> 01:33:33,732 Speaker 9: And I just found I didn't need all that extra stuff, 1978 01:33:33,772 --> 01:33:35,772 Speaker 9: which is actually quite not really good for you at 1979 01:33:35,772 --> 01:33:36,372 Speaker 9: the end of the day. 1980 01:33:36,452 --> 01:33:38,093 Speaker 3: Yeah, good on your Dave. I mean it sounds like 1981 01:33:38,133 --> 01:33:40,492 Speaker 3: a massive turnaround for you down to running. Do you 1982 01:33:40,532 --> 01:33:42,173 Speaker 3: have a run with a running buddy or is that 1983 01:33:42,253 --> 01:33:44,852 Speaker 3: kind of outside of the remit that running is your 1984 01:33:44,893 --> 01:33:47,013 Speaker 3: time alone to just be inside your own head and 1985 01:33:47,093 --> 01:33:47,532 Speaker 3: never think. 1986 01:33:48,053 --> 01:33:50,012 Speaker 9: Well, the only time I had running buddies is when 1987 01:33:50,333 --> 01:33:52,812 Speaker 9: just when I was doing long, long distance, and that's 1988 01:33:52,812 --> 01:33:56,612 Speaker 9: when you come across the real runners. Yeah, because you 1989 01:33:56,692 --> 01:33:59,133 Speaker 9: find most of the joggers have only shoved within a 1990 01:33:59,173 --> 01:34:02,532 Speaker 9: few k's from home. That's the most. Yeah, in the 1991 01:34:02,612 --> 01:34:05,293 Speaker 9: morning I run. I take off at five thirty in 1992 01:34:05,293 --> 01:34:09,093 Speaker 9: the morning, So I'm up at five take off and 1993 01:34:09,133 --> 01:34:11,812 Speaker 9: I'll be an hour or so, maybe longer. 1994 01:34:12,013 --> 01:34:14,253 Speaker 3: Yeah, great stuff, Dave, thank you very much for giving 1995 01:34:14,293 --> 01:34:16,532 Speaker 3: us a buzz.

Is it? Because I've talked 2058 01:37:08,173 --> 01:37:10,852 Speaker 2: to people before. Actually, Andrew Fagan, I interviewed him, the 2059 01:37:11,213 --> 01:37:14,213 Speaker 2: musician who's also a sailor, and he talks about, you know, 2060 01:37:14,253 --> 01:37:16,692 Speaker 2: his burg long trips out at sea, and he said, 2061 01:37:16,692 --> 01:37:19,892 Speaker 2: how intoxicating it is to see other people after a while, 2062 01:37:20,253 --> 01:37:22,093 Speaker 2: how intense it is. Is that the case for you? 2063 01:37:22,133 --> 01:37:23,972 Speaker 2: How often do you see people apart from your husband? 2064 01:37:25,333 --> 01:37:30,013 Speaker 6: Yeah, that is so true. You kind of stand back 2065 01:37:30,053 --> 01:37:31,932 Speaker 6: a little bit. I go and hide a little bit 2066 01:37:31,933 --> 01:37:35,732 Speaker 6: for a while while to come out, like, you know, 2067 01:37:36,013 --> 01:37:38,093 Speaker 6: my husband always is off so short. She'll be here 2068 01:37:38,093 --> 01:37:42,293 Speaker 6: in a minute. I take away while, you know. But 2069 01:37:42,812 --> 01:37:47,052 Speaker 6: that's okay. And you think about what you say to people. 2070 01:37:47,133 --> 01:37:50,372 Speaker 6: You don't have small chats so much. You talk about 2071 01:37:50,412 --> 01:37:54,133 Speaker 6: interesting things or talk about things that happen. I don't know. 2072 01:37:54,173 --> 01:37:57,053 Speaker 6: We tend to talk about birds a lot in the 2073 01:37:57,093 --> 01:38:00,572 Speaker 6: sea and the wind direction in the weather and things 2074 01:38:00,572 --> 01:38:02,612 Speaker 6: that may be boring to some people, but they're not 2075 01:38:02,692 --> 01:38:06,053 Speaker 6: to us. You know, nature is important, and I love 2076 01:38:06,093 --> 01:38:07,852 Speaker 6: the people that are out here. A lot of sailors, 2077 01:38:07,853 --> 01:38:10,612 Speaker 6: a lot of you, a lot of boats. Boats are 2078 01:38:10,652 --> 01:38:13,852 Speaker 6: great people to talk to. You talk about nature, that's okay. 2079 01:38:14,173 --> 01:38:15,253 Speaker 6: You know you should be doing that. 2080 01:38:15,692 --> 01:38:17,852 Speaker 2: And the more you focus on something, if that's where 2081 01:38:17,853 --> 01:38:20,693 Speaker 2: your focus is, then you start to notice the differences 2082 01:38:20,933 --> 01:38:24,372 Speaker 2: in it and it becomes exciting. I've heard you know. 2083 01:38:24,893 --> 01:38:27,772 Speaker 2: I'm just I'm just at the start of my journey 2084 01:38:27,812 --> 01:38:31,333 Speaker 2: of not being completely consuming content all the time. But 2085 01:38:31,372 --> 01:38:33,053 Speaker 2: I understand, like if you live near a beach, a 2086 01:38:33,133 --> 01:38:35,453 Speaker 2: beach is a different place every day. If you concentrate 2087 01:38:35,492 --> 01:38:38,252 Speaker 2: on it, you see the changes and as the seasons 2088 01:38:38,253 --> 01:38:41,213 Speaker 2: go and it becomes an incredibly exciting situation. 2089 01:38:41,732 --> 01:38:46,932 Speaker 6: Yes, absolutely, And small talk you realize how irrelevant it is. 2090 01:38:47,452 --> 01:38:49,772 Speaker 6: And for the young ones. I've got young nieces and 2091 01:38:49,812 --> 01:38:53,892 Speaker 6: they come and stay and you know, they talk about 2092 01:38:53,893 --> 01:38:56,532 Speaker 6: their stuff for a while and then you find oh, 2093 01:38:56,652 --> 01:38:58,772 Speaker 6: they're off wondering and looking and talking to the two 2094 01:38:58,812 --> 01:39:03,132 Speaker 6: e's as that gentleman said before, and talking about different 2095 01:39:03,133 --> 01:39:06,333 Speaker 6: things and wanting to do different things, you know, which 2096 01:39:06,372 --> 01:39:07,612 Speaker 6: is great, Which is great. 2097 01:39:07,732 --> 01:39:09,972 Speaker 2: Well, stay of life. Did you if you don't mind 2098 01:39:09,973 --> 01:39:12,333 Speaker 2: me asking, Sue, did you and your husband moved to 2099 01:39:12,333 --> 01:39:13,293 Speaker 2: the island. 2100 01:39:14,333 --> 01:39:16,972 Speaker 6: Yes, so it was kind of a semi retirement move. 2101 01:39:17,093 --> 01:39:18,372 Speaker 10: Yeah. 2102 01:39:18,412 --> 01:39:21,572 Speaker 6: We've been here nearly four years, so it was a 2103 01:39:21,612 --> 01:39:25,333 Speaker 6: semi retirement.

They don't they if they you 2415 01:53:30,452 --> 01:53:32,013 Speaker 2: get what you expect, you know that They've got this 2416 01:53:32,053 --> 01:53:34,412 Speaker 2: thing where people try to do that email zero inbox 2417 01:53:34,492 --> 01:53:36,652 Speaker 2: zero thing where they just answer every email to its zero. 2418 01:53:36,732 --> 01:53:38,133 Speaker 2: But what happens is if you do that, you just 2419 01:53:38,173 --> 01:53:40,372 Speaker 2: get more You just get more emails, You just generate 2420 01:53:40,412 --> 01:53:42,333 Speaker 2: more emails because you become the person that answers that. 2421 01:53:42,772 --> 01:53:45,412 Speaker 2: So if people understand that you don't necessarily answer a 2422 01:53:45,412 --> 01:53:48,412 Speaker 2: text straight away, then the stress goes down because you 2423 01:53:48,452 --> 01:53:50,412 Speaker 2: know people, people understand they might not hear from you 2424 01:53:50,452 --> 01:53:53,213 Speaker 2: from five hours. I mean it used to be when 2425 01:53:53,213 --> 01:53:55,173 Speaker 2: it came to letter writing, people would be happy with 2426 01:53:55,452 --> 01:53:58,333 Speaker 2: understand not hearing from someone for months, you know. Yeah, 2427 01:53:58,333 --> 01:54:01,452 Speaker 2: but we have this pressure on ourselves to always be contactable. 2428 01:54:02,333 --> 01:54:04,652 Speaker 2: This is pretty funny from someone. Do the person walking 2429 01:54:04,732 --> 01:54:08,052 Speaker 2: the Comano Way have the beclaim as five hundred miles 2430 01:54:08,093 --> 01:54:08,812 Speaker 2: on the whole time? 2431 01:54:09,293 --> 01:54:10,692 Speaker 3: Was that the inspiration for that song? 2432 01:54:10,853 --> 01:54:11,013 Speaker 18: Yeah? 2433 01:54:11,053 --> 01:54:13,892 Speaker 2: Five hundred miles? Yeah, Now that would be a challenge 2434 01:54:13,893 --> 01:54:17,173 Speaker 2: walking five hundred miles listening to the proclaimers five hundred miles, 2435 01:54:17,293 --> 01:54:18,852 Speaker 2: That would be a test of yours. 2436 01:54:18,853 --> 01:54:21,612 Speaker 3: Wef give up after one mile. It is ten to four. 2437 01:54:21,652 --> 01:54:23,973 Speaker 3: We're just about ready to wrap this one up. But 2438 01:54:24,013 --> 01:54:25,812 Speaker 3: oh it on undred and eighty teen eighty if you 2439 01:54:25,853 --> 01:54:28,572 Speaker 3: want to get a more squeeze, and it is ten 2440 01:54:28,652 --> 01:54:29,412 Speaker 3: to fall back in a month. 2441 01:54:30,973 --> 01:54:34,493 Speaker 1: The big stories, the big issues, the big trends, and 2442 01:54:34,693 --> 01:54:35,772 Speaker 1: everything in between. 2443 01:54:35,973 --> 01:54:37,133 Speaker 4: Matt and Tyler. 2444 01:54:36,893 --> 01:54:40,653 Speaker 1: Afternoons with the Volvo XC ninety attention to detail and 2445 01:54:40,733 --> 01:54:41,812 Speaker 1: a commitment to comfort. 2446 01:54:41,933 --> 01:54:45,133 Speaker 4: News DOGSZBB on News Dogs MB. 2447 01:54:46,213 --> 01:54:47,333 Speaker 3: Good afternoon, Virginia. 2448 01:54:47,413 --> 01:54:47,892 Speaker 2: How are you? 2449 01:54:48,973 --> 01:54:51,812 Speaker 25: I am very well, thank you, Hey, enjoying.

Well, there are a 2455 01:55:04,653 --> 01:55:06,093 Speaker 25: couple of people I know who've done it. 2456 01:55:06,413 --> 01:55:06,613 Speaker 5: Yeah. 2457 01:55:06,653 --> 01:55:09,413 Speaker 2: The thing is, Virginia, we get something wrong and very unfrequently, 2458 01:55:09,493 --> 01:55:12,852 Speaker 2: probably just about once every twenty minutes, actually once every minute. 2459 01:55:13,213 --> 01:55:14,892 Speaker 2: But yeah, so you've got a few friends that have 2460 01:55:14,893 --> 01:55:16,573 Speaker 2: walked the Camino trail. So that's one for people that 2461 01:55:16,613 --> 01:55:19,812 Speaker 2: we're listening before. It's across Spain. It's about eight hundred 2462 01:55:19,893 --> 01:55:21,813 Speaker 2: kilometers pilgrimmers. 2463 01:55:21,973 --> 01:55:25,053 Speaker 25: Yeah, and it is, And it's a pilgrimage here, that's 2464 01:55:25,053 --> 01:55:28,892 Speaker 25: absolutely right, And it's it's the process really of I 2465 01:55:28,893 --> 01:55:31,173 Speaker 25: guess it's a bit like the pilgrims away in the 2466 01:55:31,293 --> 01:55:33,653 Speaker 25: UK and my background in English, but you know, it's 2467 01:55:33,693 --> 01:55:36,413 Speaker 25: the process of walking from one place to another and 2468 01:55:37,333 --> 01:55:40,533 Speaker 25: through that discovering your life, I guess, and finding peace 2469 01:55:40,653 --> 01:55:43,852 Speaker 25: through the simple things and the hardships that of walk. 2470 01:55:43,772 --> 01:55:46,733 Speaker 3: Like that brings Yeah, and how long? How long would 2471 01:55:46,733 --> 01:55:48,892 Speaker 3: it take you to do that, Virginia. I suppose it's 2472 01:55:48,973 --> 01:55:51,493 Speaker 3: up to the individual, But if you were going for 2473 01:55:51,533 --> 01:55:53,932 Speaker 3: a speed run, how fast could you do it? 2474 01:55:55,093 --> 01:55:57,893 Speaker 25: I think that kind of defeats the purpose. 2475 01:55:59,333 --> 01:56:00,613 Speaker 3: Already out, already out. 2476 01:56:01,733 --> 01:56:05,373 Speaker 2: It's about the journey, not the destination. Tyler, I want to. 2477 01:56:05,333 --> 01:56:07,693 Speaker 3: Break records here. I'm never going to. But no, I 2478 01:56:07,733 --> 01:56:09,733 Speaker 3: hear what you're saying. How long would most people take 2479 01:56:09,772 --> 01:56:10,173 Speaker 3: to do it? 2480 01:56:11,133 --> 01:56:11,293 Speaker 6: Oh? 2481 01:56:11,453 --> 01:56:13,733 Speaker 25: Look, I couldn't, honestly say a lot of people just 2482 01:56:13,733 --> 01:56:15,893 Speaker 25: do bits of it, so there's no requirement to do 2483 01:56:15,933 --> 01:56:17,852 Speaker 25: the whole thing. And and it's much like the tro 2484 01:56:17,933 --> 01:56:21,613 Speaker 25: a trail. I'm watching some of my daughter's friends do that. 2485 01:56:21,613 --> 01:56:24,253 Speaker 25: At the moment they're doing forty k's a day. 2486 01:56:24,453 --> 01:56:27,573 Speaker 2: So that's about three hundred that's about three thousand, five 2487 01:56:27,693 --> 01:56:32,093 Speaker 2: hundred k isn't it from from basically from the top 2488 01:56:32,093 --> 01:56:33,653 Speaker 2: of the country to the bottom. You've got to take 2489 01:56:33,653 --> 01:56:34,893 Speaker 2: a theory at one point, though, don't you. 2490 01:56:36,533 --> 01:56:39,812 Speaker 25: Well, well, they seem to be cranking it out, so 2491 01:56:41,133 --> 01:56:43,573 Speaker 25: they do do it at that speed. But that's the 2492 01:56:43,653 --> 01:56:46,093 Speaker 25: kind of speed that it could be possible. Of course, 2493 01:56:46,173 --> 01:56:49,852 Speaker 25: of course the Camino ways through villages and on formed roads, 2494 01:56:49,933 --> 01:56:53,012 Speaker 25: and it's not so much of the camping. I don't 2495 01:56:53,013 --> 01:56:55,013 Speaker 25: know if there is any camping. There's a lot of 2496 01:56:55,053 --> 01:56:56,013 Speaker 25: accommodation all the way. 2497 01:56:56,093 --> 01:56:59,133 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, so yeah, Cape the younger to 2498 01:56:59,133 --> 01:57:01,892 Speaker 2: the bluff, this tacks here that her husband's are two 2499 01:57:01,933 --> 01:57:04,812 Speaker 2: thirds away through it very popular at the moment. Three thousand, 2500 01:57:04,933 --> 01:57:06,373 Speaker 2: three hundred klimeters it has. 2501 01:57:06,573 --> 01:57:07,252 Speaker 3: That's incredible. 2502 01:57:07,413 --> 01:57:09,293 Speaker 2: So that's going to be a up. It's going to 2503 01:57:09,333 --> 01:57:11,812 Speaker 2: be over a month in Ireland, doesn't it really easy? Yeah, 2504 01:57:12,373 --> 01:57:15,133 Speaker 2: not that we're very focused on the duration. We're moving 2505 01:57:15,213 --> 01:57:18,293 Speaker 2: the point of the spiritual nature. As I pointed out. 2506 01:57:18,653 --> 01:57:22,493 Speaker 3: Virginia, thank you very much, Thank you, have a great afternoon. 2507 01:57:22,653 --> 01:57:26,012 Speaker 3: All right, I'm convinced Now, this idea of raw dogging 2508 01:57:26,493 --> 01:57:27,413 Speaker 3: or working out. 2509 01:57:27,253 --> 01:57:30,133 Speaker 2: Or living with that distraction, you don't have. You don't 2510 01:57:30,133 --> 01:57:31,693 Speaker 2: have to start with the Camino Trail. You don't have 2511 01:57:31,733 --> 01:57:35,613 Speaker 2: to start with eight hundred k across Spain. Tyler. Maybe 2512 01:57:35,693 --> 01:57:38,012 Speaker 2: just go for a run, a five k run without 2513 01:57:38,053 --> 01:57:40,293 Speaker 2: your headphones on. Just start there and work up from there. 2514 01:57:40,373 --> 01:57:42,373 Speaker 3: I'll give it a crack and report back. So not 2515 01:57:42,413 --> 01:57:44,173 Speaker 3: listening to the proclaimers five hundred miles. 2516 01:57:44,493 --> 01:57:46,892 Speaker 2: We need need some peace, you know, get it one 2517 01:57:46,933 --> 01:57:49,333 Speaker 2: with ourselves a little bit more.
