1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:04,080 Speaker 1: Happy Thanksgiving to all our American friends and Mitt Canbury 2 00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 1: local who is based in New York these days as 3 00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:10,080 Speaker 1: much we canned morning, Bonnie. 4 00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:11,240 Speaker 2: Look, how are you doing well? Morning? 5 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:13,640 Speaker 1: Our time? Anyway, Thanksgiving is this a pretty big deal. 6 00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:17,799 Speaker 2: It's a massive deal, actually, mate. Eighty seven percent of 7 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:22,279 Speaker 2: Americans celebrate Thanksgiving, only slightly more celebrate Christmas. And I 8 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,960 Speaker 2: think it's a fantastic holiday here. We get one day 9 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:29,000 Speaker 2: off Thursday in November. It's very popular, obviously, and I 10 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 2: think possibly because it's not a religious holiday, more people 11 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 2: tend to celebrate that. So tomorrow it's all about turkeys, 12 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,680 Speaker 2: mashed potato, green beans, all those sorts of things. So 13 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 2: it's going to be a massive day here in the 14 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:41,000 Speaker 2: US tomorrow. Yeah. 15 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,160 Speaker 1: Have you come across any of those fun headlines about 16 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,599 Speaker 1: just how many turkeys will be served up? 17 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,600 Speaker 2: I have. I've actually prepared one for you. Forty six 18 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 2: million turkeys every year, dura, Yeah, I know, bad day 19 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 2: to be a turkey. I'm not a massive fan of them. 20 00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 2: They usually a little bit dry for me. I'm more 21 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 2: of a sort of a chicken or a ham person. 22 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:04,839 Speaker 2: But your forty six million turkeys tomorrow and eighty percent 23 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,400 Speaker 2: of those celebrating, they're going to be having turkey or ham. 24 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 2: Seventy seven people are going to have side dishes like 25 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 2: mashed potatoes and green beans, and will be among them 26 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 2: as well. 27 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, it takes a fair amount of position to get 28 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 1: it right. I've had good turkey and bad turkey. How 29 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,040 Speaker 1: good to be one of those officially pardoned. I spotted 30 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: on the news the other nights that must be part 31 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: of the tradition that Donald Trump saves a couple as 32 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: part of a ceremony. 33 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. Well, I mean, if there are forty 34 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 2: six million turkeys every year that are eaten, there's a 35 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 2: pretty good chance if you're a turkey, you're going to 36 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 2: be one of those on the chopping block. But every 37 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 2: year there's a couple of turkeys that go to the 38 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 2: White House are officially pardoned by the president. And Donald 39 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 2: Trump's done that in the last couple of days as well, 40 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 2: So lucky to I'm not sure, not sure what happens 41 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 2: to them afterwards, But yeah, a nicer political tradition. I 42 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 2: think in the US, at a time of a lot 43 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 2: of turmoil. 44 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 1: I think I can see what it's all about feasting, 45 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: because for you, it starting to get a bit crisp. 46 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: Complete opposite here with Northwester's and thirty degrees picked today. 47 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 1: What a condition's like for you? 48 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 2: Oh, mate, they're really cold. I'm feeling a little bit 49 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,519 Speaker 2: bad because I spent all of June and July sort 50 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:15,959 Speaker 2: of bragging to friends and family back home about how 51 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 2: hot it was. And then I spoke to my dad yesterday. 52 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 2: He said it was twenty eight degrees at lunchtime. Meanwhile, 53 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 2: I was heating home from work. It was freezing cold. 54 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 2: It was dark, and it was raining. And that's going 55 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 2: to be the story here for the next few months. 56 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 2: So I think things like Thanksgiving are a little break 57 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 2: from the weather, a sort of chance to go inside 58 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 2: and celebrate with some friends over here. So yeah, freezing cold, mate, 59 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 2: Very jealous of you at the moment. 60 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: Well, it is on my bucket list to experience New 61 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: York going into Christmas, in particular, because with that change 62 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 1: in weather and all the dressing that goes up, it 63 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: does seem like such a magical place. Has the tree 64 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: gone up in Rockefeller Center yet? 65 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 2: Yes? I believe it has actually, but the tree hasn't 66 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 2: gone up in my house. And I'll tell you why, 67 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 2: because my wife says that it's time to put the 68 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 2: tree are but I think it's bad luck if you 69 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 2: do it before the first of December. I'm not sure 70 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 2: what the rules are in New Zealand, but I don't 71 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:08,959 Speaker 2: want to get a hit of myself and then have 72 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:10,920 Speaker 2: bad luck for the rest of the month. I'm not sure. 73 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 2: Do you know what the what we're supposed to do? 74 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 1: Fakest news ours has been up since the start of 75 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 1: the month, because the way I see it, if you're 76 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 1: going to the effort, it's a whole day ordeal to 77 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: get that thing set up. 78 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 2: Mate. 79 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 1: If you go into the effort, you may as well 80 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: enjoy it for as long as you can. And our 81 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:25,920 Speaker 1: tree is now up in the center of town. We've 82 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: got the light up the night street party on set today, 83 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: so I say go for it. 84 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, brilliant, good idea. Well, that'll keep my wife happy. 85 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 2: And there's plenty of cold weekends at the moment, so 86 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 2: plenty of time to be doing that. So I think 87 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 2: maybe this weekend the tree might go up. I'll say, 88 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 2: Luke's giving me permission on Hokkunui, so 89 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: We can do it absolutely, And you've got a few 90 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 1: extra friends coming around for Thanksgiving to give you a 91 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: hand with it too.
