There's a bit of wind over 41 00:01:57,773 --> 00:02:01,093 Speaker 2: in Fiji right especially one day actually we were playing 42 00:02:01,333 --> 00:02:05,093 Speaker 2: the Natadolar Bay golf Course, Lovely, which is a crazy 43 00:02:05,133 --> 00:02:08,573 Speaker 2: golf course. It's it's the coolest thing I've ever been on. 44 00:02:09,013 --> 00:02:12,252 Speaker 2: It's you know, you're teeing off wherever you tee off, 45 00:02:12,573 --> 00:02:18,013 Speaker 2: it's just over lagoons, over cattle, over wild horses. It's 46 00:02:18,133 --> 00:02:20,933 Speaker 2: very difficult, and there was but we had this. Okay, 47 00:02:21,972 --> 00:02:24,053 Speaker 2: this wasn't anything to do with the wind, but I 48 00:02:24,093 --> 00:02:26,013 Speaker 2: was teeing off I think it was on the seventh 49 00:02:26,173 --> 00:02:30,172 Speaker 2: and absolutely shanked it right shanked it right over into 50 00:02:30,173 --> 00:02:33,013 Speaker 2: another fairway right yep. And it was so windy that 51 00:02:33,053 --> 00:02:34,813 Speaker 2: no one else was really playing on the golf course, 52 00:02:34,853 --> 00:02:39,093 Speaker 2: so we didn't really see many people. And so we 53 00:02:39,213 --> 00:02:41,412 Speaker 2: got Tracy and I we got on our cart and 54 00:02:41,453 --> 00:02:43,813 Speaker 2: we zoomed over to get my ball. And when we 55 00:02:43,853 --> 00:02:47,213 Speaker 2: got over there, we saw this ball in the middle 56 00:02:47,373 --> 00:02:50,533 Speaker 2: of a sand trap with just with a little shamrock on. 57 00:02:50,573 --> 00:02:52,573 Speaker 2: It was just sitting right in the middle. And people 58 00:02:52,653 --> 00:02:55,172 Speaker 2: have been popping up out of the undergrowth to sell 59 00:02:55,252 --> 00:02:57,853 Speaker 2: us balls and drinks and stuff right around the entire course. 60 00:02:58,252 --> 00:03:00,613 Speaker 2: So we thought someone just put this little ball in 61 00:03:00,653 --> 00:03:02,653 Speaker 2: the middle of the sand trap as an example of 62 00:03:02,653 --> 00:03:04,613 Speaker 2: a cool little ball you can get, because I'd bought 63 00:03:04,653 --> 00:03:08,252 Speaker 2: like a Ghostbusters ball from someone and Tracy had bought 64 00:03:08,252 --> 00:03:11,053 Speaker 2: it champagne ball. So we saw this little shamrock ball 65 00:03:11,773 --> 00:03:14,333 Speaker 2: and we're looked around and there was no one around, 66 00:03:14,413 --> 00:03:18,093 Speaker 2: and Tracy goes I really want that ball. I'm gonna 67 00:03:18,093 --> 00:03:21,093 Speaker 2: grab that ball. That might help my luck. I'm thinking, 68 00:03:21,453 --> 00:03:23,333 Speaker 2: I don't know, but I looked around. There was no 69 00:03:23,373 --> 00:03:26,213 Speaker 2: one around. Yeah, And so she picked it up and 70 00:03:26,213 --> 00:03:28,253 Speaker 2: we zoomed off in our cart, and then we see 71 00:03:28,252 --> 00:03:33,852 Speaker 2: this other cart come streaming past over and I kind 72 00:03:33,853 --> 00:03:37,573 Speaker 2: of recognized the shape of one of the people in 73 00:03:37,613 --> 00:03:40,613 Speaker 2: the cart. I'm not sure where're from. And then we 74 00:03:40,653 --> 00:03:43,533 Speaker 2: see them zoom over across our fearway over to that 75 00:03:43,613 --> 00:03:47,573 Speaker 2: other fearway and they start looking for that ball. No, 76 00:03:48,093 --> 00:03:51,853 Speaker 2: so we oh god, there were someone. Against the odds, 77 00:03:51,853 --> 00:03:53,733 Speaker 2: there was someone else there. So we got on the 78 00:03:53,733 --> 00:03:56,133 Speaker 2: go cart and the gout the golf cart and we 79 00:03:56,213 --> 00:03:59,493 Speaker 2: go over and and go go, We've got to give 80 00:03:59,493 --> 00:04:02,693 Speaker 2: you your ball back. And guess who it was? Who 81 00:04:03,533 --> 00:04:09,733 Speaker 2: Brendan McCullum. Oh, no, kidding, Bears McCullum. It was, And 82 00:04:10,053 --> 00:04:13,093 Speaker 2: he was very good about it, yeah, because and what 83 00:04:13,133 --> 00:04:17,092 Speaker 2: had happened is he had shanked his ball across about 84 00:04:17,133 --> 00:04:19,933 Speaker 2: three fairways. I'd shanked across one, and there was no 85 00:04:19,973 --> 00:04:21,853 Speaker 2: one really else on the court, so it was just 86 00:04:21,973 --> 00:04:23,813 Speaker 2: him and Cayl Mills came over. They were playing a 87 00:04:23,893 --> 00:04:26,973 Speaker 2: round of golf over there, and they were cool about it. 88 00:04:27,013 --> 00:04:32,293 Speaker 2: And luckily Tracy hadn't raked up the sand travit. Also, 89 00:04:32,373 --> 00:04:34,053 Speaker 2: you could just follow the footprints and put the ball 90 00:04:34,093 --> 00:04:36,613 Speaker 2: back exactly where he had left it, and then he 91 00:04:36,693 --> 00:04:39,133 Speaker 2: just smoked it out of the the sound trap and 92 00:04:39,133 --> 00:04:39,693 Speaker 2: he was on his way. 93 00:04:39,733 --> 00:04:43,173 Speaker 4: It was a good time, Bears McCallum, irish, Yeah, I mean, 94 00:04:43,173 --> 00:04:44,653 Speaker 4: I'm glad you gave him his ball back. 95 00:04:44,693 --> 00:04:46,213 Speaker 3: Did you get another one for Tracy with a wee 96 00:04:46,213 --> 00:04:46,773 Speaker 3: shamrock on. 97 00:04:47,173 --> 00:04:50,013 Speaker 2: No, there was no other one here, although the Righter's 98 00:04:50,013 --> 00:04:52,453 Speaker 2: Cup was one with the ball with a shamrock on it. 99 00:04:52,493 --> 00:04:54,493 Speaker 2: Just today. There you go, So there you go. It's 100 00:04:54,533 --> 00:04:58,373 Speaker 2: amazing as Natal Dollar Bay Championship golf course. If you 101 00:04:58,373 --> 00:05:00,173 Speaker 2: ever get a chance to play it, then play it. 102 00:05:00,173 --> 00:05:02,333 Speaker 2: But stick to the rules. Don't go stealing people's balls. 103 00:05:02,373 --> 00:05:05,373 Speaker 4: Got mate, That is a great story. Right on to 104 00:05:05,773 --> 00:05:08,653 Speaker 4: the show today after three o'clock. So, money, all lack 105 00:05:08,733 --> 00:05:11,293 Speaker 4: of it, as we know, can make or break some relationships, 106 00:05:11,373 --> 00:05:14,413 Speaker 4: especially when your financial abbots couldn't be more different. There 107 00:05:14,453 --> 00:05:16,373 Speaker 4: was an article in the Herald today you can read 108 00:05:16,413 --> 00:05:18,893 Speaker 4: it with an unnamed man. He's asking for advice. He's 109 00:05:18,893 --> 00:05:21,693 Speaker 4: disciplined with money, but his girlfriend isn't and he doesn't 110 00:05:21,693 --> 00:05:22,653 Speaker 4: know if it can work out in. 111 00:05:22,653 --> 00:05:25,013 Speaker 2: The long term. Yeah. So should you only hook up 112 00:05:25,013 --> 00:05:27,933 Speaker 2: with people who look at finances the same way as 113 00:05:27,973 --> 00:05:32,653 Speaker 2: you do? Or you know, should it be one type person, 114 00:05:32,813 --> 00:05:36,333 Speaker 2: one reckless person and so you because if you have 115 00:05:36,373 --> 00:05:39,093 Speaker 2: two tight people, nothing ever happens, and you have no 116 00:05:39,173 --> 00:05:41,853 Speaker 2: adventures and nothing exciting ever happens. Yep. If you've got 117 00:05:41,893 --> 00:05:45,533 Speaker 2: two reckless people, like in the relationship my relationship, then 118 00:05:45,693 --> 00:05:48,093 Speaker 2: just all the money flies out of the house. Yeah, 119 00:05:48,133 --> 00:05:48,973 Speaker 2: on stupid things. 120 00:05:48,973 --> 00:05:50,853 Speaker 3: So where's the perfect bale holidays? Do you need one 121 00:05:50,893 --> 00:05:51,173 Speaker 3: of each? 122 00:05:51,413 --> 00:05:51,933 Speaker 2: Yeah? Maybe? 123 00:05:52,053 --> 00:05:53,933 Speaker 4: Yeah, oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty. That's the 124 00:05:54,053 --> 00:05:57,333 Speaker 4: chat after three o'clock, After two o'clock. Honesty is the 125 00:05:57,333 --> 00:05:59,453 Speaker 4: best policy. That's how the saying goes. But is it 126 00:05:59,493 --> 00:06:02,613 Speaker 4: really Graham Norton He reckons, No, he said in a 127 00:06:02,653 --> 00:06:05,573 Speaker 4: recent interviews. Sometimes it's kinder to lie, he says, think 128 00:06:05,573 --> 00:06:08,653 Speaker 4: about it. Not every truth is helpful. Sometimes brutal want 129 00:06:08,653 --> 00:06:09,813 Speaker 4: to sty just causes pain. 130 00:06:10,413 --> 00:06:13,693 Speaker 2: Yeah, look, I wrote about this in my book. Actually, 131 00:06:13,733 --> 00:06:16,413 Speaker 2: I think that you should never, ever, ever ever lie. 132 00:06:17,653 --> 00:06:22,453 Speaker 2: You don't have to openly offer your opinion on everything. Yes, Like, 133 00:06:22,453 --> 00:06:24,413 Speaker 2: if someone's wearing a stupid pair of pants, you don't 134 00:06:24,413 --> 00:06:26,293 Speaker 2: have to go get a mate, what a stupid pair 135 00:06:26,293 --> 00:06:28,933 Speaker 2: of pants? You can just shoulder arms and let that 136 00:06:28,973 --> 00:06:31,173 Speaker 2: fly through to the keeper. Yep. But if they ask 137 00:06:31,213 --> 00:06:33,813 Speaker 2: you about your pants, you should. It's kinder to say 138 00:06:34,013 --> 00:06:36,213 Speaker 2: those are terrible pants, and it is to let them 139 00:06:36,213 --> 00:06:38,333 Speaker 2: walk around in terrible pants without anyone pointing out that 140 00:06:38,373 --> 00:06:40,373 Speaker 2: they're terrible pants. If you see what I'm saying. Yeah, 141 00:06:40,533 --> 00:06:42,533 Speaker 2: So I think you should never lie if you can 142 00:06:42,533 --> 00:06:46,093 Speaker 2: possibly help it. Obviously there are edge cases. I believe 143 00:06:46,133 --> 00:06:48,133 Speaker 2: that lies, even the little ones, make the world a 144 00:06:48,173 --> 00:06:49,533 Speaker 2: slightly worse place. 145 00:06:49,653 --> 00:06:51,653 Speaker 4: That is going to be a spicy chat after two o'clock, 146 00:06:51,853 --> 00:06:53,573 Speaker 4: but right now, let's have a chat about this. 147 00:06:53,613 --> 00:06:55,733 Speaker 3: So New Zealand has just reaffirmed. 148 00:06:55,213 --> 00:06:58,933 Speaker 4: Its stance it will not recognize a Palestinian state at 149 00:06:58,973 --> 00:07:01,733 Speaker 4: this time. So Foreign Minister Winston Peter's made it clear 150 00:07:01,933 --> 00:07:04,773 Speaker 4: at the United Nations General Assembly stating that such a 151 00:07:04,813 --> 00:07:08,333 Speaker 4: move is not prudent without a negotiated resolution between Israel 152 00:07:08,493 --> 00:07:11,773 Speaker 4: and Palestine. Here's a bit of Minister Winston Peters. 153 00:07:11,453 --> 00:07:15,813 Speaker 5: With a war raging harmas still in place, and no 154 00:07:15,893 --> 00:07:19,813 Speaker 5: clarity on next steps. We did not think that time 155 00:07:20,773 --> 00:07:28,013 Speaker 5: is now. Recognizing Palestine now will likely prove counterproductive. That 156 00:07:28,213 --> 00:07:34,413 Speaker 5: is harmas resisting negotiation in the belief that it is 157 00:07:34,533 --> 00:07:37,493 Speaker 5: winning the global propaganda war. 158 00:07:38,333 --> 00:07:41,293 Speaker 4: So the argument there from the government Dan Winston Peters 159 00:07:41,333 --> 00:07:45,613 Speaker 4: that recognizing Palestine prematurely could undermine the two states solution. 160 00:07:46,533 --> 00:07:48,853 Speaker 4: Chris lux And our Prime minister, of course, was asked 161 00:07:48,893 --> 00:07:51,893 Speaker 4: about that on News Talk ZB and here's what he said. 162 00:07:51,973 --> 00:07:53,773 Speaker 6: I actually think we got to the right decision and 163 00:07:53,813 --> 00:07:56,453 Speaker 6: we made the right decision for New Zealand And which 164 00:07:56,493 --> 00:07:59,853 Speaker 6: is confirming our previous position saying we're not if but 165 00:08:00,533 --> 00:08:02,573 Speaker 6: complex issue. You know, there's people on all sides that 166 00:08:02,613 --> 00:08:04,773 Speaker 6: debate of strong opinions. There's equally people who don't have 167 00:08:04,813 --> 00:08:07,853 Speaker 6: any view on it across New Zealand. So I think 168 00:08:07,853 --> 00:08:09,693 Speaker 6: we got a good place. Do I think we articulated 169 00:08:09,693 --> 00:08:10,453 Speaker 6: our view very well. 170 00:08:10,533 --> 00:08:13,773 Speaker 7: Does it sit comfortably with you in the National Party 171 00:08:14,173 --> 00:08:15,453 Speaker 7: as opposed to the government. 172 00:08:16,293 --> 00:08:16,493 Speaker 8: Yeah. 173 00:08:16,533 --> 00:08:17,133 Speaker 9: Absolutely. 174 00:08:17,173 --> 00:08:19,613 Speaker 6: You've got to remember I'm the Prime Minister who made 175 00:08:19,613 --> 00:08:23,133 Speaker 6: the designation about Hamas as a terrorist organization and I 176 00:08:23,213 --> 00:08:25,893 Speaker 6: believe very very strongly that you can't recognize the state 177 00:08:25,893 --> 00:08:28,373 Speaker 6: when terrorists play a significant role in the government and 178 00:08:28,733 --> 00:08:31,733 Speaker 6: Hamas is the de facto government of Gaza and what 179 00:08:31,813 --> 00:08:34,213 Speaker 6: happened on October seventh utterly unacceptable. 180 00:08:35,493 --> 00:08:39,413 Speaker 2: Yeah, whereas Chris Hipkins, leader of the opposition, has said 181 00:08:39,653 --> 00:08:43,093 Speaker 2: the decision is morally reprehensible and a failure of leadership, 182 00:08:44,333 --> 00:08:46,372 Speaker 2: and New Zealand had an opportunity to show leadership here 183 00:08:46,453 --> 00:08:48,693 Speaker 2: they have failed. Instead, New Zealand government's turning its back 184 00:08:48,693 --> 00:08:52,333 Speaker 2: on Palestine when we see an unfolding genocide and there's 185 00:08:52,372 --> 00:08:58,693 Speaker 2: been varying degrees of that being expoused across the country 186 00:08:58,732 --> 00:09:00,892 Speaker 2: and the response to it. But our question is a 187 00:09:00,973 --> 00:09:05,053 Speaker 2: little bit different, a little bit off the exact topics 188 00:09:06,053 --> 00:09:10,373 Speaker 2: of the situation there. We keep hearing that decisions like 189 00:09:10,413 --> 00:09:16,053 Speaker 2: this will affect our international reputation. Yet this decision of 190 00:09:16,093 --> 00:09:21,173 Speaker 2: New Zealand's hasn't even made the news in Australia. So 191 00:09:22,612 --> 00:09:24,732 Speaker 2: we're we're a very small nation in the middle of 192 00:09:24,773 --> 00:09:29,453 Speaker 2: the specific both specific I mean specifically the specific nicely done, 193 00:09:29,813 --> 00:09:34,732 Speaker 2: very nicely done. Look, we have We've got to be honest, 194 00:09:35,252 --> 00:09:37,693 Speaker 2: we've got a bit of main character syndrome. We have 195 00:09:37,852 --> 00:09:40,372 Speaker 2: very little influence on the world. So this is the question, 196 00:09:40,413 --> 00:09:44,132 Speaker 2: are we spending too much time worrying about events overseas 197 00:09:44,213 --> 00:09:47,933 Speaker 2: that we have very little impact on because there is 198 00:09:48,053 --> 00:09:53,773 Speaker 2: only so much time, energy, and effort and thought available 199 00:09:53,813 --> 00:09:58,173 Speaker 2: within the system of New Zealand and we undoubtedly have problems. 200 00:09:58,213 --> 00:10:05,173 Speaker 2: Yet yeah, just you know, individually, culturally, governmentally, should we 201 00:10:05,213 --> 00:10:08,213 Speaker 2: be spending more time and energy on things that we 202 00:10:08,492 --> 00:10:12,012 Speaker 2: have control on because we spend a lot of time 203 00:10:12,053 --> 00:10:14,853 Speaker 2: talking about the situation and other situations around the world, 204 00:10:15,693 --> 00:10:19,493 Speaker 2: And as has been said in the past, are people 205 00:10:19,573 --> 00:10:23,173 Speaker 2: waiting with baited breath to hear our ruminations on this 206 00:10:23,213 --> 00:10:24,333 Speaker 2: particular issue. 207 00:10:24,492 --> 00:10:26,852 Speaker 4: Well, Australia wasn't. No, so you've got to wonder who 208 00:10:26,933 --> 00:10:29,213 Speaker 4: house is. But can you get your views on this? 209 00:10:29,333 --> 00:10:31,293 Speaker 4: So eight one hundred and eighty ten eighty are we 210 00:10:31,333 --> 00:10:33,453 Speaker 4: spending too much energy trying to solve something we have 211 00:10:33,492 --> 00:10:36,093 Speaker 4: no real control over? I will say, I mean the 212 00:10:36,132 --> 00:10:40,333 Speaker 4: headlines and the amount of hours we've been talking about 213 00:10:40,333 --> 00:10:43,013 Speaker 4: this and the amount of if it the government has 214 00:10:43,053 --> 00:10:44,213 Speaker 4: been considering. 215 00:10:43,773 --> 00:10:44,532 Speaker 3: This, that is a lot. 216 00:10:44,573 --> 00:10:47,652 Speaker 4: It's a lot of productivity hours that has gone into 217 00:10:47,813 --> 00:10:51,693 Speaker 4: thinking about what decision is going to be made and 218 00:10:51,732 --> 00:10:53,693 Speaker 4: then they've come up with this decision that they're going 219 00:10:53,732 --> 00:10:56,133 Speaker 4: to hold hold fire for the time being, and Winston 220 00:10:56,173 --> 00:10:58,213 Speaker 4: Peter's made a good case about the reasons for that. 221 00:10:58,653 --> 00:11:01,693 Speaker 2: But all that energy, all that energy, all that energy, 222 00:11:01,732 --> 00:11:04,813 Speaker 2: and then you've got the opposition, who are you furious? 223 00:11:04,852 --> 00:11:08,492 Speaker 2: And gnashing of teeth and they're angry about that, and 224 00:11:08,612 --> 00:11:12,213 Speaker 2: all this time is now taken away from stuff that 225 00:11:12,293 --> 00:11:16,133 Speaker 2: we could actually do in New Zealand to make New 226 00:11:16,213 --> 00:11:17,213 Speaker 2: Zealand a better place. 227 00:11:17,293 --> 00:11:19,053 Speaker 4: Yeap, the phones have let up, but can to hear 228 00:11:19,093 --> 00:11:20,892 Speaker 4: your views on this? Oh, eight hundred and eighty ten 229 00:11:21,012 --> 00:11:23,252 Speaker 4: eighty Have we spent too much energy trying to solve 230 00:11:23,293 --> 00:11:25,693 Speaker 4: something we have no real control over when we have 231 00:11:25,813 --> 00:11:28,532 Speaker 4: problems at home? Nine to nine Two's the Texas seventeen 232 00:11:28,533 --> 00:11:30,253 Speaker 4: past one, the. 233 00:11:30,132 --> 00:11:34,093 Speaker 1: Big stories, the big issues, the big trends and everything 234 00:11:34,132 --> 00:11:34,652 Speaker 1: in between. 235 00:11:34,852 --> 00:11:41,132 Speaker 8: Matt Heath and Taylor Adams afternoons used talks that'd be. 236 00:11:39,612 --> 00:11:40,453 Speaker 3: For a good afternoon to you. 237 00:11:40,573 --> 00:11:44,013 Speaker 4: It's nineteen past one. We are talking about our government's 238 00:11:44,012 --> 00:11:47,533 Speaker 4: decision not to at this stage recognize a Palestinian state. 239 00:11:47,612 --> 00:11:49,973 Speaker 4: But the question we put to you is has too 240 00:11:50,053 --> 00:11:53,013 Speaker 4: much energy being put into talking about this from the 241 00:11:53,053 --> 00:11:56,493 Speaker 4: government and others, and do we need to focus on 242 00:11:56,533 --> 00:11:57,653 Speaker 4: some of the issues we have at home. 243 00:11:57,732 --> 00:12:00,132 Speaker 2: Well yeah, and not just particularly this one, but does 244 00:12:00,173 --> 00:12:03,533 Speaker 2: New Zealand spend too much time looking outward at what's 245 00:12:03,573 --> 00:12:05,612 Speaker 2: happening in the rest of the world and burning our 246 00:12:05,732 --> 00:12:09,533 Speaker 2: energy and our thoughts and ours on that as opposed 247 00:12:09,573 --> 00:12:13,173 Speaker 2: to focusing inward? Just generally? Do we have main character 248 00:12:13,173 --> 00:12:16,292 Speaker 2: syndrome as a country? Is anyone waiting with baited breath 249 00:12:16,293 --> 00:12:18,453 Speaker 2: for what New Zealand has to say on any of 250 00:12:18,492 --> 00:12:21,132 Speaker 2: the issues in the world. Hi, guys, I believe if 251 00:12:21,173 --> 00:12:24,012 Speaker 2: included in that speech there was some condemnation of Israel, 252 00:12:24,173 --> 00:12:27,252 Speaker 2: New Zealanders would have been satisfied. That's from Jen. Have 253 00:12:27,333 --> 00:12:30,012 Speaker 2: you got the speech there, Tyler? I believe Whinston Peters 254 00:12:30,012 --> 00:12:32,973 Speaker 2: did make mention of Israel. 255 00:12:33,173 --> 00:12:37,573 Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely, So the speeches is quite in depth and 256 00:12:37,612 --> 00:12:39,693 Speaker 4: you can see it if you just google the speech. 257 00:12:39,693 --> 00:12:41,732 Speaker 4: But here's the part here. So they're talking or he 258 00:12:41,892 --> 00:12:45,612 Speaker 4: was talking about the decision not to recognize Palestinian statehood. 259 00:12:45,612 --> 00:12:48,293 Speaker 4: He said those countries who hope their earlier signaling of 260 00:12:48,333 --> 00:12:51,813 Speaker 4: Palestinian statehood recognition would protect and promote the two State 261 00:12:51,892 --> 00:12:55,773 Speaker 4: solutions have instead seen the Israeli government snap and continue 262 00:12:55,813 --> 00:12:59,293 Speaker 4: its widely condemned military actions in Gaza while continuing to 263 00:12:59,333 --> 00:13:02,453 Speaker 4: develop illegal sentiments on the West Bank in defiance of 264 00:13:02,492 --> 00:13:03,333 Speaker 4: international law. 265 00:13:03,533 --> 00:13:04,293 Speaker 3: That's pretty damn it. 266 00:13:04,293 --> 00:13:07,893 Speaker 2: And there was another comment in there as well, Cassie, 267 00:13:07,933 --> 00:13:09,933 Speaker 2: welcome to the show. Your thoughts on this? 268 00:13:11,252 --> 00:13:15,612 Speaker 10: Yeah, afternoon, lads. Yeah, I guess ferously to answer your question, Yeah, 269 00:13:15,653 --> 00:13:17,773 Speaker 10: I think we are spending far too much time and 270 00:13:17,852 --> 00:13:22,293 Speaker 10: energy on this. Me personally, I actually agree with what 271 00:13:22,333 --> 00:13:28,093 Speaker 10: the government's done. Yeah, because I don't see us recognizing 272 00:13:28,093 --> 00:13:30,852 Speaker 10: it as a state having any bearing on the situation 273 00:13:30,973 --> 00:13:33,453 Speaker 10: over there. You know, major countries have done it and 274 00:13:33,453 --> 00:13:36,732 Speaker 10: it hasn't changed anything on the ground in Palestine, gather 275 00:13:37,053 --> 00:13:40,933 Speaker 10: and what have you. And for us, the detrimental effects 276 00:13:40,933 --> 00:13:44,013 Speaker 10: are as possibly upsetting some of our major trading partners 277 00:13:44,053 --> 00:13:47,532 Speaker 10: and shooting ourselves in the foot economically for very little gain, 278 00:13:47,693 --> 00:13:49,053 Speaker 10: and then doing the contrary. 279 00:13:50,053 --> 00:13:53,813 Speaker 2: What things do you think we should focus on outside 280 00:13:53,852 --> 00:13:56,013 Speaker 2: of New Zealand, because we can't be completely inward looking, 281 00:13:56,053 --> 00:13:57,973 Speaker 2: and we're a long way from being inward looking at 282 00:13:57,973 --> 00:14:00,732 Speaker 2: the stage. We're incredibly outward looking country, which you can 283 00:14:00,732 --> 00:14:03,613 Speaker 2: imagine why because we're a little nation in this South Pacific, 284 00:14:03,693 --> 00:14:06,492 Speaker 2: so you know, there's a lot going outside, but what 285 00:14:06,573 --> 00:14:09,693 Speaker 2: kind of things around the world should be worthy of 286 00:14:09,813 --> 00:14:12,532 Speaker 2: the time, were worthy of spending a lot of time 287 00:14:12,732 --> 00:14:14,893 Speaker 2: governmentally and just individually. 288 00:14:16,492 --> 00:14:19,853 Speaker 10: I just just think that you know, countries that America 289 00:14:19,933 --> 00:14:23,253 Speaker 10: and the UK and Ozzy and the likes, the countries 290 00:14:23,253 --> 00:14:27,573 Speaker 10: that look after us. I, yeah, things, things turn into chaos, 291 00:14:27,573 --> 00:14:30,333 Speaker 10: so to speak. You know, we've got to toe the 292 00:14:30,373 --> 00:14:35,253 Speaker 10: line because yeah, military wise, we can't defend ourselves, but 293 00:14:35,733 --> 00:14:37,493 Speaker 10: they're going to come to our aid and theories, so 294 00:14:37,573 --> 00:14:40,333 Speaker 10: we've sort of got to, you know, fulfill their obligations. 295 00:14:41,213 --> 00:14:44,693 Speaker 10: And yeah, you know, wars overseas and that are important. 296 00:14:45,893 --> 00:14:48,693 Speaker 10: And then yeah, I don't agree with what Israel's done. 297 00:14:48,693 --> 00:14:50,653 Speaker 10: I think they had the right to defend themselves, but 298 00:14:51,053 --> 00:14:54,573 Speaker 10: sort of probably taking things a bit fast. That's just 299 00:14:54,653 --> 00:14:55,133 Speaker 10: my opinion. 300 00:14:55,173 --> 00:14:57,853 Speaker 2: Anyway, I'll think you for your call, Kessie. 301 00:14:58,093 --> 00:14:59,933 Speaker 4: I just not here and part of the speech, and 302 00:14:59,973 --> 00:15:02,412 Speaker 4: this is a critical part here he mentions the shift 303 00:15:02,453 --> 00:15:05,173 Speaker 4: in the international order from rules to power continues its 304 00:15:05,253 --> 00:15:08,653 Speaker 4: malignant path. While the Security Council was effectively paralyzed or 305 00:15:08,653 --> 00:15:11,773 Speaker 4: many of the acute geo political challenges it faces. This 306 00:15:11,813 --> 00:15:14,973 Speaker 4: inability to act largely our product of the veto power 307 00:15:15,053 --> 00:15:18,173 Speaker 4: by the permanent Five impacts on perceptions of the United 308 00:15:18,253 --> 00:15:22,773 Speaker 4: Nations broader legitimacy. So effectively any decision that was made, 309 00:15:22,773 --> 00:15:25,413 Speaker 4: whether they recognize or not enough how often now the 310 00:15:25,613 --> 00:15:28,733 Speaker 4: idea of a Palestinian state effectively what Winston Peters are 311 00:15:28,733 --> 00:15:31,412 Speaker 4: saying there. And I tend to agree that the powers 312 00:15:31,413 --> 00:15:33,973 Speaker 4: of the United Nations is almost a fast when you've 313 00:15:33,973 --> 00:15:36,933 Speaker 4: got those five big countries that have the veto ability, 314 00:15:37,373 --> 00:15:39,413 Speaker 4: whether we like it or not, are not in that 315 00:15:39,533 --> 00:15:42,453 Speaker 4: leadership position in the world. So no matter what we 316 00:15:42,533 --> 00:15:45,253 Speaker 4: do in this situation, it's not going to change one 317 00:15:45,253 --> 00:15:46,733 Speaker 4: iota of what's happening over there. 318 00:15:46,773 --> 00:15:49,693 Speaker 2: Well, i'll tell you what I always find slightly I guess, 319 00:15:49,693 --> 00:15:53,813 Speaker 2: disappointing and humiliating, but also you know, it's just reality. 320 00:15:54,093 --> 00:15:56,213 Speaker 2: How few people turn up when the neal anyone from 321 00:15:56,253 --> 00:15:59,053 Speaker 2: New Zealand speaking at the UN. It's just cricket throughout. 322 00:16:00,213 --> 00:16:02,613 Speaker 2: Everyone takes their lunch, everyone's off at the sandwich bar. 323 00:16:02,813 --> 00:16:03,973 Speaker 3: It does hurt a little bit, doesn't it me? 324 00:16:04,013 --> 00:16:06,893 Speaker 2: And the same thing happened to the guy the Primister 325 00:16:06,933 --> 00:16:09,373 Speaker 2: of Finland as well. Yeah, with very few people here 326 00:16:09,453 --> 00:16:12,013 Speaker 2: for the five million person countries. Not everyone lines up. 327 00:16:12,093 --> 00:16:14,293 Speaker 4: Yeah, oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the 328 00:16:14,453 --> 00:16:16,813 Speaker 4: number of goal.

I think we do need to be 364 00:17:50,293 --> 00:17:54,653 Speaker 11: aware and it does affect who chooses to invest with us. 365 00:17:55,573 --> 00:17:58,573 Speaker 11: So it is connected to what's going on outside to 366 00:17:58,613 --> 00:18:02,013 Speaker 11: what happens inside. And a good example of this is 367 00:18:03,333 --> 00:18:08,053 Speaker 11: the government's currently calling for a lot of moneyed investors 368 00:18:08,133 --> 00:18:14,573 Speaker 11: to invest in New Zealand and bring business here. Correct. Right, 369 00:18:15,373 --> 00:18:18,933 Speaker 11: So when we look at the Peter Teel situation, a 370 00:18:18,973 --> 00:18:22,693 Speaker 11: lot of people don't realize that Peter Tel is planetar. 371 00:18:23,613 --> 00:18:29,493 Speaker 11: You know what planetar is. No Planetar is the AI. 372 00:18:30,053 --> 00:18:36,333 Speaker 11: It's the technology technology that's being used by the Israel 373 00:18:36,413 --> 00:18:40,453 Speaker 11: government to attack and bomb the Palestinians. 374 00:18:40,973 --> 00:18:43,693 Speaker 2: But Peter Taylor isn't Peter Tailor isn't in New Zealand anymore. 375 00:18:45,013 --> 00:18:50,253 Speaker 11: He's still got his citizenship. And if you look up 376 00:18:50,333 --> 00:18:54,653 Speaker 11: and see read up Citizen Teal, it actually tells you 377 00:18:54,933 --> 00:18:58,653 Speaker 11: he was involved in the Trump election. He sponsored JD Vance, 378 00:18:59,333 --> 00:19:03,093 Speaker 11: he's politically minded, he's behind Israel. You know when you 379 00:19:03,133 --> 00:19:07,813 Speaker 11: look and see that these guys, the technology guys are 380 00:19:08,893 --> 00:19:12,733 Speaker 11: investing in New Zealand and we're calling Look at Judith 381 00:19:12,773 --> 00:19:14,293 Speaker 11: Collins calling for so. 382 00:19:15,373 --> 00:19:20,653 Speaker 2: You think that that's this not this this speech at 383 00:19:20,693 --> 00:19:23,613 Speaker 2: the UN helps or hinders investment into New Zealand. 384 00:19:25,413 --> 00:19:28,973 Speaker 11: It hinders. But also if we wanted to be serious 385 00:19:29,013 --> 00:19:30,573 Speaker 11: about doing the right thing. 386 00:19:31,053 --> 00:19:34,373 Speaker 2: And that's Peter Teel's a billionia that was looking to 387 00:19:34,413 --> 00:19:37,493 Speaker 2: invest in New Zealand and I'm not I'm not sure. 388 00:19:38,253 --> 00:19:40,413 Speaker 2: I'll just take you at your word that he is 389 00:19:40,853 --> 00:19:44,253 Speaker 2: involved in some way in the situation, then surely it 390 00:19:44,253 --> 00:19:47,973 Speaker 2: wouldn't affect his you know, his his willingness to invest 391 00:19:48,013 --> 00:19:48,573 Speaker 2: in New Zealand. 392 00:19:49,213 --> 00:19:52,333 Speaker 11: We don't want that kind of people. We are that 393 00:19:52,653 --> 00:19:57,813 Speaker 11: immediately places us. We are connected. We we are not 394 00:19:57,973 --> 00:20:00,013 Speaker 11: even looking at you know. 395 00:20:00,573 --> 00:20:02,773 Speaker 2: What, what what what kind of people do you want 396 00:20:03,013 --> 00:20:04,093 Speaker 2: investing in New Zealand. 397 00:20:05,693 --> 00:20:10,653 Speaker 11: We don't want people who involved in such brutal, inhumane 398 00:20:10,693 --> 00:20:15,533 Speaker 11: activity is what Israel. Israel's conduct is doing over there, So. 399 00:20:15,453 --> 00:20:18,933 Speaker 2: You would would you also would you also deny I know, 400 00:20:19,213 --> 00:20:23,173 Speaker 2: Saudi Arabian investment or Chinese investment in New Zealand on 401 00:20:24,373 --> 00:20:25,573 Speaker 2: those grounds. 402 00:20:26,173 --> 00:20:28,093 Speaker 11: It needs to be looked at and we need to 403 00:20:28,093 --> 00:20:30,813 Speaker 11: be aware and a lot of the New Zealand people 404 00:20:30,853 --> 00:20:35,173 Speaker 11: are not aware because quite often it's glossed over. So 405 00:20:35,213 --> 00:20:37,333 Speaker 11: we need to look and see the connections. And we 406 00:20:37,413 --> 00:20:40,973 Speaker 11: want to have a moral stand on it because we 407 00:20:41,053 --> 00:20:44,453 Speaker 11: did really well when we stood up against apartheid, and 408 00:20:44,493 --> 00:20:48,213 Speaker 11: we should be standing up against Israel's conduct now. We 409 00:20:48,253 --> 00:20:52,213 Speaker 11: should be boycotting them and we should have sanctions against Israel. 410 00:20:52,573 --> 00:20:55,813 Speaker 11: So even if the government doesn't want to declear them, 411 00:20:56,133 --> 00:20:59,292 Speaker 11: pealsin in a state now we should be making a 412 00:20:59,333 --> 00:21:04,292 Speaker 11: clear stance of what we believe is good behavior and 413 00:21:04,413 --> 00:21:05,733 Speaker 11: what we don't approve of. 414 00:21:06,373 --> 00:21:08,413 Speaker 4: Well, thank you very much. I just got to say 415 00:21:08,453 --> 00:21:11,293 Speaker 4: quickly this idea of caltowing to the likes of Peter Theo. 416 00:21:11,373 --> 00:21:14,213 Speaker 4: I don't know what is involvement is in the conflict, 417 00:21:14,213 --> 00:21:17,532 Speaker 4: if any, but I think that that's absolutely nonsense. I mean, 418 00:21:17,573 --> 00:21:19,853 Speaker 4: he was trying to invest in a large property in 419 00:21:19,933 --> 00:21:22,973 Speaker 4: Queenstown that got voted down by the council and the 420 00:21:23,053 --> 00:21:26,533 Speaker 4: Environment Court. So any idea that the speech was somehow 421 00:21:26,853 --> 00:21:30,413 Speaker 4: in relation to cal towing or appeasing billionaires, I just 422 00:21:30,453 --> 00:21:33,933 Speaker 4: think is nonsense. Right, it is twenty nine to two 423 00:21:33,973 --> 00:21:36,213 Speaker 4: bagfy surely, Oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is 424 00:21:36,213 --> 00:21:36,733 Speaker 4: a number. 425 00:21:36,573 --> 00:21:36,893 Speaker 12: To core. 426 00:21:39,133 --> 00:21:39,733 Speaker 8: Youse talks. 427 00:21:39,733 --> 00:21:43,173 Speaker 13: They'd be headlines with blue bubble taxis It's no trouble 428 00:21:43,213 --> 00:21:46,413 Speaker 13: with a blue bubble.

But we're sort of trying to talk 453 00:23:12,093 --> 00:23:14,373 Speaker 2: about a slightly different issue to the side of it, 454 00:23:14,453 --> 00:23:18,013 Speaker 2: which is, are we spending too much of our time 455 00:23:18,213 --> 00:23:23,093 Speaker 2: and energy, both governmentally and individually on things that we 456 00:23:23,173 --> 00:23:27,133 Speaker 2: cannot control?

But as far as 466 00:23:57,573 --> 00:24:01,253 Speaker 14: I'm concerned, we've got enough problems at our own in 467 00:24:01,253 --> 00:24:05,453 Speaker 14: our own country, and we need to look after our 468 00:24:05,493 --> 00:24:09,933 Speaker 14: own affairs they worry about.

But when I hear it, 485 00:25:10,453 --> 00:25:13,173 Speaker 14: and you know, when we've got our own issues, well, 486 00:25:13,933 --> 00:25:16,653 Speaker 14: why does it bother me? I mean, at the end 487 00:25:16,693 --> 00:25:20,933 Speaker 14: of the day, we've got a lot of things that 488 00:25:20,973 --> 00:25:23,373 Speaker 14: we need to sort out here, and like you said, 489 00:25:24,653 --> 00:25:28,693 Speaker 14: we're spending too much time crying and weeping over something else. 490 00:25:28,813 --> 00:25:31,493 Speaker 14: And I understand there's problems over there and we need 491 00:25:31,533 --> 00:25:34,532 Speaker 14: to stand up, but we can't meet the decisions for 492 00:25:34,613 --> 00:25:39,493 Speaker 14: that country that's got the problems. They've got to, you know, 493 00:25:40,013 --> 00:25:42,653 Speaker 14: deal with it and make the choices. 494 00:25:43,173 --> 00:25:45,133 Speaker 2: What do you say to people that talk about it 495 00:25:45,453 --> 00:25:48,173 Speaker 2: entirely like Die was talking about it in terms of 496 00:25:48,213 --> 00:25:53,693 Speaker 2: investment and that if we don't make stands internationally, then 497 00:25:53,733 --> 00:25:55,613 Speaker 2: that can affect us economically. 498 00:25:56,533 --> 00:25:59,133 Speaker 14: Well, I think, well, at the end of the day, 499 00:25:59,533 --> 00:26:05,613 Speaker 14: I didn't even know any investment from Well Israel or 500 00:26:05,693 --> 00:26:12,013 Speaker 14: Peloton was was actually well they're or not a New 501 00:26:12,093 --> 00:26:15,773 Speaker 14: Zealan But I don't know much about that. But all 502 00:26:15,813 --> 00:26:23,013 Speaker 14: I can say is is that, well, well, I think 503 00:26:23,053 --> 00:26:26,053 Speaker 14: were this. You know, I think it comes down to stuff. 504 00:26:26,733 --> 00:26:31,613 Speaker 14: I think we have to really sometimes have to say 505 00:26:31,693 --> 00:26:35,572 Speaker 14: no or yes in many situations. But I think New 506 00:26:35,653 --> 00:26:40,093 Speaker 14: Zealand's too scared to say no and that's why we're 507 00:26:40,493 --> 00:26:41,973 Speaker 14: And maybe investment is going. 508 00:26:41,893 --> 00:26:42,532 Speaker 15: To come or not. 509 00:26:43,053 --> 00:26:46,052 Speaker 14: But that's an individual choice. If someone wants to invest 510 00:26:46,053 --> 00:26:49,653 Speaker 14: in his own well then then be yeah, well then 511 00:26:49,733 --> 00:26:50,493 Speaker 14: that's yeah. 512 00:26:50,613 --> 00:26:52,053 Speaker 2: Thank you for you, cal Chris appreciate it. 513 00:26:52,173 --> 00:26:54,093 Speaker 4: Yeah, thank you very much for your thoughts. So taking 514 00:26:54,133 --> 00:26:56,173 Speaker 4: your calls on one hundred and eighty ten eighty. Should 515 00:26:56,213 --> 00:26:59,253 Speaker 4: we be focusing on our challenges closer to home instead 516 00:26:59,253 --> 00:27:01,613 Speaker 4: of getting entangled in a conflict half a world away. 517 00:27:01,733 --> 00:27:03,773 Speaker 4: Love to hear your thoughts. Ninety two nine to two 518 00:27:03,933 --> 00:27:06,573 Speaker 4: is the text number as well. It is twenty one 519 00:27:06,613 --> 00:27:06,973 Speaker 4: to two. 520 00:27:07,813 --> 00:27:11,013 Speaker 1: The big stories, the big issues to the big trends 521 00:27:11,173 --> 00:27:14,893 Speaker 1: and everything in between. Matt Heath and Tyler Adams afternoons 522 00:27:15,173 --> 00:27:16,093 Speaker 1: used talks, they'd be. 523 00:27:16,733 --> 00:27:19,293 Speaker 4: Very good afternoon Juit is eighteen to two. So we're 524 00:27:19,333 --> 00:27:22,933 Speaker 4: talking about Palestine Israel conflict. Are we made a mistaking 525 00:27:22,933 --> 00:27:27,653 Speaker 4: moral outrage for actual impact when recognition or condemnation changes 526 00:27:27,733 --> 00:27:29,933 Speaker 4: nothing on the ground, And should we be focusing on 527 00:27:29,933 --> 00:27:30,773 Speaker 4: the problems we've got here? 528 00:27:30,933 --> 00:27:33,893 Speaker 2: Yeah? Do we have main character syndrome where we're trying 529 00:27:33,933 --> 00:27:36,093 Speaker 2: to spend too much of our energy on stuff we 530 00:27:36,293 --> 00:27:40,493 Speaker 2: cannot affect? This text, it disagrees what that president last 531 00:27:40,493 --> 00:27:44,093 Speaker 2: caller would be. Would he be happy if New Zealand 532 00:27:44,093 --> 00:27:46,213 Speaker 2: got invaded and no other country cared or took a 533 00:27:46,253 --> 00:27:49,093 Speaker 2: stand on mass deaths? I mean that's an interesting point, 534 00:27:49,133 --> 00:27:53,013 Speaker 2: isn't it that as a small country, maybe you need 535 00:27:53,053 --> 00:27:56,613 Speaker 2: to be heard what your opinion is. So if for 536 00:27:56,693 --> 00:27:58,933 Speaker 2: whatever reason you get in trouble people can't go, well, 537 00:27:58,973 --> 00:28:02,653 Speaker 2: they didn't seem to care before when this happened to us. Yeah, 538 00:28:03,693 --> 00:28:05,853 Speaker 2: so that's maybe a bit of a push back there. George, 539 00:28:05,853 --> 00:28:06,493 Speaker 2: welcome to the show. 540 00:28:07,293 --> 00:28:10,893 Speaker 15: Yeah, thank you. This whole discussion, please bear with me, 541 00:28:12,173 --> 00:28:16,413 Speaker 15: reminds me of the froth on the water on my bathtub. 542 00:28:17,693 --> 00:28:22,773 Speaker 15: When it's all bubbles. Eventually it will all go away 543 00:28:22,853 --> 00:28:24,813 Speaker 15: when I pulled the plug out and it's all gone 544 00:28:24,853 --> 00:28:27,933 Speaker 15: down with the water down the plug hole, and it's 545 00:28:27,973 --> 00:28:28,853 Speaker 15: all come to an end. 546 00:28:29,213 --> 00:28:29,373 Speaker 16: Now. 547 00:28:29,413 --> 00:28:33,613 Speaker 15: The reason I say this is because mister Winston's Peter 548 00:28:33,813 --> 00:28:38,373 Speaker 15: stood up and named Nighted Nations made his speech. One 549 00:28:38,413 --> 00:28:43,213 Speaker 15: of the attendees in that room was someone that had 550 00:28:43,253 --> 00:28:48,453 Speaker 15: in front of him State of Palestine written on the label. 551 00:28:49,013 --> 00:28:54,053 Speaker 15: That country is already recognized, and mister Winston Peters spoke 552 00:28:54,133 --> 00:28:58,213 Speaker 15: to him. They also recognize New Zealand. We do not 553 00:28:58,293 --> 00:29:01,613 Speaker 15: have a situation where the State of Palestine does not exist. 554 00:29:01,933 --> 00:29:05,013 Speaker 15: It's in the United Nations. It is a country that 555 00:29:05,133 --> 00:29:08,733 Speaker 15: votes on world affairs. My question is what is all this? 556 00:29:08,853 --> 00:29:13,133 Speaker 15: Who are about when the State of Palestine already exists. 557 00:29:13,173 --> 00:29:16,133 Speaker 2: Well, I guess there's a complexity there, George, because what's 558 00:29:16,133 --> 00:29:18,333 Speaker 2: happening in the West Bank where you've got the Palestinian 559 00:29:18,373 --> 00:29:21,973 Speaker 2: authority is one thing. But Gaza voted for Hummas. So 560 00:29:22,413 --> 00:29:25,973 Speaker 2: Gaza is completely controlled by Hummas and they are two 561 00:29:26,093 --> 00:29:29,213 Speaker 2: totally different areas that are separated by land mass. 562 00:29:29,613 --> 00:29:32,013 Speaker 15: That's not the issue. The issue is both pieces of 563 00:29:32,093 --> 00:29:36,813 Speaker 15: land are called Palestine. The Palestine Authority, yes, they live 564 00:29:36,853 --> 00:29:40,733 Speaker 15: in the West Bank, and they have denounced Hamas for 565 00:29:40,853 --> 00:29:43,253 Speaker 15: what they've done and who they are, and want nothing 566 00:29:43,333 --> 00:29:45,413 Speaker 15: to do with them and want them out of Palestine. 567 00:29:46,053 --> 00:29:48,613 Speaker 15: They've stood up. I've watched the speech by the Palestinian 568 00:29:48,973 --> 00:29:52,533 Speaker 15: guy saying all this, that he wanted the Hamas out 569 00:29:53,013 --> 00:29:56,093 Speaker 15: because they are simply a terrorist group wrecking Palestine. 570 00:29:56,493 --> 00:30:00,293 Speaker 2: Yes, so in that situation, if we're only dealing with them, 571 00:30:00,413 --> 00:30:04,653 Speaker 2: then we're not doing then what happens to all the 572 00:30:04,653 --> 00:30:06,053 Speaker 2: people in Gaza. 573 00:30:06,253 --> 00:30:12,533 Speaker 15: They are represented of the people of Yeah, but they 574 00:30:12,533 --> 00:30:14,813 Speaker 15: did a takeover, remember, and kick the other guys out. 575 00:30:15,013 --> 00:30:15,213 Speaker 12: Yeah. 576 00:30:15,253 --> 00:30:18,573 Speaker 2: Yeah, but in two thousand and seven Hamas was elected 577 00:30:18,733 --> 00:30:21,093 Speaker 2: as as the government in the Gaza region. 578 00:30:22,133 --> 00:30:25,733 Speaker 15: Yes, but what I'm saying, they're not on the United Nations. 579 00:30:25,733 --> 00:30:30,653 Speaker 15: They don't appear there in presence. The Palestinian Authority does, 580 00:30:31,133 --> 00:30:34,293 Speaker 15: and they are what the world recognizes. They don't recognize 581 00:30:34,333 --> 00:30:38,413 Speaker 15: Hamas as a legitimate authority. And yet here we are 582 00:30:38,453 --> 00:30:42,213 Speaker 15: trying to say, oh, we've got to change track, denounce 583 00:30:42,333 --> 00:30:46,813 Speaker 15: Watson the United Nations and put in another place the 584 00:30:46,933 --> 00:30:48,653 Speaker 15: Palestinians with Hamas. 585 00:30:49,773 --> 00:30:52,933 Speaker 4: But you can see the complexity and the you know, 586 00:30:53,893 --> 00:30:57,493 Speaker 4: it's it's such a complex situation going on in George, 587 00:30:57,853 --> 00:31:01,453 Speaker 4: sort of same. Palestine already exists in some circumstance, and 588 00:31:01,493 --> 00:31:05,733 Speaker 4: clearly Hamas government exists in the Gaza strip. But going 589 00:31:05,773 --> 00:31:08,773 Speaker 4: back to the main reason why Winston leaders and the 590 00:31:08,813 --> 00:31:12,493 Speaker 4: government said that it's not the right time to recognize 591 00:31:12,493 --> 00:31:15,813 Speaker 4: an overall Palestinian state is because they felt it was 592 00:31:15,853 --> 00:31:19,853 Speaker 4: going to impact the two state solution in the idea 593 00:31:19,973 --> 00:31:23,333 Speaker 4: of jumping into the quagmire as it clearly is is 594 00:31:23,373 --> 00:31:25,613 Speaker 4: not going to be helpful to achieve that. But thank 595 00:31:25,653 --> 00:31:28,533 Speaker 4: you very much, George for your call. Tony, how are. 596 00:31:28,453 --> 00:31:34,693 Speaker 17: You good afternoon, gentlemen. A brief history of the non 597 00:31:34,693 --> 00:31:39,933 Speaker 17: existent state of Palestine. Palestine has only existed as a 598 00:31:42,053 --> 00:31:45,653 Speaker 17: part of the Roman Empire, which covered all of what 599 00:31:45,693 --> 00:31:50,013 Speaker 17: we call the Middle East. It was subsequently consumed by 600 00:31:50,053 --> 00:31:55,173 Speaker 17: the Ottoman Empire, which at its peak went from Algeria 601 00:31:55,293 --> 00:31:58,653 Speaker 17: to Vienna and out to as far as the Russian 602 00:31:58,813 --> 00:32:04,813 Speaker 17: the old Russian borders. Garzas started to exist as a 603 00:32:04,853 --> 00:32:07,613 Speaker 17: refugee camp at the end of World War Two, when 604 00:32:07,933 --> 00:32:12,373 Speaker 17: the otto An Empire was sub was defeated by the 605 00:32:12,413 --> 00:32:16,813 Speaker 17: Allies and it stayed that way for many years while 606 00:32:17,373 --> 00:32:19,533 Speaker 17: the rest of the Middle East was divided up into 607 00:32:19,613 --> 00:32:24,453 Speaker 17: roughly what the borders are now. They've had various politic 608 00:32:24,453 --> 00:32:29,533 Speaker 17: excuse the voice, they've very changes in between. That Gaza 609 00:32:29,733 --> 00:32:36,293 Speaker 17: has never ever been a state of anything. The United Nations, 610 00:32:36,293 --> 00:32:38,573 Speaker 17: in its wisdom, when it wants to change the world 611 00:32:38,653 --> 00:32:43,773 Speaker 17: after in the last fifty years, has chosen to create 612 00:32:44,493 --> 00:32:48,533 Speaker 17: well to acknowledge, a Palestinian state which largely covers what 613 00:32:48,573 --> 00:32:55,533 Speaker 17: we called the West Bank, because which have in the 614 00:32:55,613 --> 00:32:59,413 Speaker 17: minds of the Allies after World War One, it had 615 00:32:59,453 --> 00:33:04,413 Speaker 17: already been created and called it Jordan. Trans Jordan, which 616 00:33:04,533 --> 00:33:09,573 Speaker 17: covers the West Bank used to be the western part 617 00:33:09,653 --> 00:33:12,853 Speaker 17: of the State of Jordan, which is a pretty successful, 618 00:33:12,933 --> 00:33:20,093 Speaker 17: happily integrated nation within the United Nations. Assyria didn't even exist, 619 00:33:20,333 --> 00:33:23,773 Speaker 17: notwithstanding the fact that the Muscus has existed as a city. 620 00:33:24,093 --> 00:33:29,053 Speaker 2: So that's a historical record. So that doesn't mean that 621 00:33:29,093 --> 00:33:31,533 Speaker 2: you know, states are formed and not formed, and recognized 622 00:33:31,533 --> 00:33:34,773 Speaker 2: and not recognized over time. So does what bearing does 623 00:33:34,773 --> 00:33:42,213 Speaker 2: that have on recognizing a Palestinian states? But it could exist, 624 00:33:42,213 --> 00:33:44,693 Speaker 2: of I mean, things just exist because humans say that 625 00:33:44,853 --> 00:33:46,653 Speaker 2: we changed the debate. 626 00:33:46,773 --> 00:33:49,213 Speaker 17: We got to the United Nations and said, hey, guys, 627 00:33:49,493 --> 00:33:54,013 Speaker 17: let's have another state and in the release and let's 628 00:33:54,013 --> 00:33:54,973 Speaker 17: call it Gaza. 629 00:33:55,093 --> 00:33:55,853 Speaker 9: Oh, let's call it. 630 00:33:56,533 --> 00:33:58,133 Speaker 2: What do you think about? What do you think about 631 00:33:58,133 --> 00:34:02,333 Speaker 2: the question that we're discussing today, Tony? Do you think 632 00:34:02,333 --> 00:34:06,333 Speaker 2: that New Zealand spends too much time and energy on 633 00:34:06,613 --> 00:34:09,813 Speaker 2: events that we can't affect? If and that's an assumption 634 00:34:09,893 --> 00:34:12,252 Speaker 2: that we don't have any effect. 635 00:34:12,773 --> 00:34:17,213 Speaker 17: Entirely, you wouldn't have time to watch question time in 636 00:34:17,253 --> 00:34:21,093 Speaker 17: Parliament because it's between two and three o'clock. All the 637 00:34:21,093 --> 00:34:23,172 Speaker 17: Green Party to do now is it is is turn 638 00:34:23,293 --> 00:34:27,053 Speaker 17: up with these checker scarves on and to ask the 639 00:34:27,053 --> 00:34:31,533 Speaker 17: government it it's given the opportunity to ask about the 640 00:34:31,573 --> 00:34:34,373 Speaker 17: states of our nation. I think there are a lot 641 00:34:34,373 --> 00:34:37,333 Speaker 17: of eight questions and sort six or eight questions as 642 00:34:37,373 --> 00:34:42,053 Speaker 17: there are the other parties, and all we talk about 643 00:34:42,173 --> 00:34:45,933 Speaker 17: is bloody Palestine. And now, if we thought we had 644 00:34:45,933 --> 00:34:48,333 Speaker 17: a problem, or if they thought we had a problem 645 00:34:48,413 --> 00:34:54,453 Speaker 17: in New Zealand with poverty, with race, relationships, with the ecology, 646 00:34:54,933 --> 00:34:58,692 Speaker 17: why aren't they asking those questions? 647 00:34:58,173 --> 00:35:01,293 Speaker 2: What do you think considering the level of problems we 648 00:35:01,333 --> 00:35:03,093 Speaker 2: have in New Zealand, then we don't have you know, 649 00:35:03,133 --> 00:35:06,333 Speaker 2: it's hard to quantify that. And what percentage of time 650 00:35:06,373 --> 00:35:10,053 Speaker 2: do you think a party should spend on these international 651 00:35:10,053 --> 00:35:12,253 Speaker 2: issues and what percentage you think they should spend on 652 00:35:12,493 --> 00:35:13,573 Speaker 2: well local issues. 653 00:35:14,733 --> 00:35:17,413 Speaker 17: I think we spent a wonderful amount of time with it. 654 00:35:17,453 --> 00:35:20,613 Speaker 17: I mean, I don't hold them much truck for Winston Peters, 655 00:35:20,613 --> 00:35:22,413 Speaker 17: but you've got to give it to him. When he 656 00:35:22,493 --> 00:35:26,293 Speaker 17: makes a speech on Peorer relations, you sit up and listen, 657 00:35:26,813 --> 00:35:29,613 Speaker 17: because he's been doing it for decades and he does 658 00:35:29,613 --> 00:35:31,213 Speaker 17: it very very well. 659 00:35:31,253 --> 00:35:32,733 Speaker 2: Do you think the rest of the world set up 660 00:35:32,733 --> 00:35:37,253 Speaker 2: and listened, though, Tony, do you think that what Winston 661 00:35:37,293 --> 00:35:40,613 Speaker 2: Peters said, you know, reverberated around the world or do 662 00:35:40,653 --> 00:35:41,373 Speaker 2: you think any. 663 00:35:42,853 --> 00:35:46,813 Speaker 17: He made our statement in the World Forum, He stated 664 00:35:46,933 --> 00:35:50,133 Speaker 17: our case as we see it, or as our government 665 00:35:50,253 --> 00:35:52,733 Speaker 17: president government sees it, so be it. 666 00:35:53,853 --> 00:35:54,773 Speaker 16: And that was. 667 00:35:54,813 --> 00:35:59,693 Speaker 17: Quite unequivocal, carefully thought out and very very well presented, 668 00:35:59,733 --> 00:36:03,853 Speaker 17: albeit just smothered up in a few seconds by Television 669 00:36:03,893 --> 00:36:05,773 Speaker 17: New Zealand because it didn't suit their agenda. 670 00:36:06,773 --> 00:36:08,533 Speaker 2: Oh thank you so much for you called, Tony.

Yeah, not a name, name tags on you. 680 00:36:35,973 --> 00:36:39,053 Speaker 2: Whatever you've put on the disk that says Palestine on it. 681 00:36:39,173 --> 00:36:41,413 Speaker 2: We will get to the bottom of that. That is 682 00:36:41,453 --> 00:36:43,652 Speaker 2: the most pressing issue working out. One of those things 683 00:36:43,733 --> 00:36:46,813 Speaker 2: is called so nineteen two's and that's something we can solve. 684 00:36:46,973 --> 00:36:49,053 Speaker 4: Yeah, that is something we consol But can you get 685 00:36:49,053 --> 00:36:50,692 Speaker 4: your views? So at one undred and eighty ten eighty, 686 00:36:50,973 --> 00:36:53,533 Speaker 4: should we be focusing on challenges closer to home instead 687 00:36:53,533 --> 00:36:56,773 Speaker 4: of getting entangled in the Palestinian Israeli conflict? 688 00:36:56,773 --> 00:36:57,692 Speaker 3: That is eight to two. 689 00:36:59,333 --> 00:37:02,893 Speaker 1: Matt Heath, Taylor Adams taking your calls on eight hundred 690 00:37:02,893 --> 00:37:04,813 Speaker 1: and eighty Tight, it's Matt Heath. 691 00:37:04,613 --> 00:37:07,293 Speaker 8: And Tylor Adams afternoons news Dog said, be. 692 00:37:08,933 --> 00:37:10,893 Speaker 3: News talks there be it is six to two. 693 00:37:11,693 --> 00:37:14,493 Speaker 2: So we can solve one issue here today, Yes we can, 694 00:37:14,613 --> 00:37:17,133 Speaker 2: And I was asking, what's the thing that says the 695 00:37:17,133 --> 00:37:18,812 Speaker 2: thing on the front of the desk of the people 696 00:37:18,853 --> 00:37:20,813 Speaker 2: at the UN and it's a nameplate, but this is 697 00:37:20,853 --> 00:37:22,053 Speaker 2: state of Palestine. 698 00:37:22,933 --> 00:37:24,973 Speaker 3: It's a name plate nameplate. That is huge. 699 00:37:25,013 --> 00:37:25,812 Speaker 2: Yep, that is huge. 700 00:37:25,853 --> 00:37:27,613 Speaker 3: That is a job well done. We can take their box. 701 00:37:27,613 --> 00:37:31,973 Speaker 2: But they they're a they're not a member. Yes, they're observing. 702 00:37:33,093 --> 00:37:37,293 Speaker 2: So that's why the speech was whether we recognize Palestinian 703 00:37:37,373 --> 00:37:42,652 Speaker 2: state or not. Welcome to show, Melissa, Hi, So. 704 00:37:42,733 --> 00:37:45,212 Speaker 18: Just on your first point, do we have a main 705 00:37:45,293 --> 00:37:47,973 Speaker 18: characters in drome in the country? I think in general yes, 706 00:37:48,053 --> 00:37:50,333 Speaker 18: So I find it quite weird. And you know, there's a 707 00:37:50,413 --> 00:37:53,013 Speaker 18: Jimmy Fallon show and it mentions New Zealand and then 708 00:37:53,053 --> 00:37:55,533 Speaker 18: all of a sudden we're all talking about whether we 709 00:37:55,653 --> 00:37:57,252 Speaker 18: appreciated their feedback or something. 710 00:37:57,333 --> 00:37:57,812 Speaker 17: Quite weird. 711 00:37:57,933 --> 00:37:59,013 Speaker 2: Yeah, yep, we do love that. 712 00:37:59,133 --> 00:38:02,652 Speaker 18: But really, are we spending too much time on this 713 00:38:02,853 --> 00:38:06,373 Speaker 18: on this one issue kind of suggests that it's binary, right, 714 00:38:06,493 --> 00:38:08,732 Speaker 18: you know, you wouldn't say, should we be tooking about 715 00:38:08,853 --> 00:38:11,813 Speaker 18: education at a time that there's also issues with infrastructure. 716 00:38:11,853 --> 00:38:15,533 Speaker 18: We've got government departments that are funded for foreign affairs 717 00:38:15,613 --> 00:38:19,493 Speaker 18: and they don't stop stop working because we're currently talking 718 00:38:19,493 --> 00:38:21,853 Speaker 18: about that. They kind of all exist at the same time. 719 00:38:22,613 --> 00:38:26,493 Speaker 2: Yeah, what about individual? What about individually? Melissa? Like, if 720 00:38:26,533 --> 00:38:28,973 Speaker 2: you know, someone's spending a lot of time online and 721 00:38:29,013 --> 00:38:34,732 Speaker 2: this is taking up their emotional level, their empathies flying off. 722 00:38:34,813 --> 00:38:38,573 Speaker 2: Meanwhile parts of their actual life and family life are 723 00:38:39,173 --> 00:38:41,973 Speaker 2: drifting because they're so focused on this. And I know 724 00:38:42,173 --> 00:38:45,773 Speaker 2: people like this that are just absolutely obsessed with this conflict. 725 00:38:46,173 --> 00:38:48,013 Speaker 2: Do you think that can go too far? Are you 726 00:38:48,053 --> 00:38:48,652 Speaker 2: seeing any of that? 727 00:38:50,573 --> 00:38:53,212 Speaker 18: I don't know if well, it's probably a different question 728 00:38:53,293 --> 00:38:55,773 Speaker 18: to the question at hand, But also is that is 729 00:38:55,813 --> 00:38:58,853 Speaker 18: that probably on a personal level, whether someone's spending too 730 00:38:58,893 --> 00:39:02,333 Speaker 18: much online across a number of issues. But really, I 731 00:39:02,373 --> 00:39:04,893 Speaker 18: think you know, with global citizens, you all just talked 732 00:39:04,933 --> 00:39:09,293 Speaker 18: about a holiday to Fiji. We care about our community. 733 00:39:09,813 --> 00:39:11,533 Speaker 18: Where would you drop that line if you went to 734 00:39:11,573 --> 00:39:13,293 Speaker 18: Feture and you sort of said, oh, look, there's all 735 00:39:13,293 --> 00:39:16,013 Speaker 18: these social issues going on here, but I'm here to holiday. 736 00:39:16,053 --> 00:39:18,853 Speaker 18: I don't really care about how these people live or 737 00:39:19,773 --> 00:39:22,973 Speaker 18: or you know, within the community. You could take I 738 00:39:23,013 --> 00:39:25,493 Speaker 18: don't know the other guy's name who called on MUSSA. 739 00:39:26,493 --> 00:39:27,893 Speaker 2: Sorry, Melissa, we're going to have to go to an 740 00:39:28,093 --> 00:39:29,732 Speaker 2: we've got the news coming in fast and we can't 741 00:39:29,733 --> 00:39:31,373 Speaker 2: stop it, so we might trunk you back to you 742 00:39:31,453 --> 00:39:32,732 Speaker 2: just after the break, if that's all right. 743 00:39:33,013 --> 00:39:36,013 Speaker 4: Yeah, sure, thank you very much.

So, you know, as I was saying, for 761 00:40:28,573 --> 00:40:32,453 Speaker 2: we keep hearing these decisions like this affect our international reputation. 762 00:40:33,933 --> 00:40:38,453 Speaker 2: But even Australia didn't report widely on what we've said 763 00:40:38,493 --> 00:40:40,252 Speaker 2: at the UN and not a lot of people there. 764 00:40:40,813 --> 00:40:43,493 Speaker 2: And as we said before, we're a small nation in 765 00:40:43,493 --> 00:40:45,813 Speaker 2: the middle of the Pacific and we have very little 766 00:40:45,853 --> 00:40:48,733 Speaker 2: influence on the world. So the question Tyler and I 767 00:40:48,773 --> 00:40:50,692 Speaker 2: have been trying to ask, are we spending too much 768 00:40:50,733 --> 00:40:53,933 Speaker 2: time worrying about events overseas that we have little or 769 00:40:53,973 --> 00:40:57,333 Speaker 2: no effect on. You know, there's only so much time 770 00:40:57,373 --> 00:41:01,172 Speaker 2: and energy for our government and us individually to sort 771 00:41:01,213 --> 00:41:03,213 Speaker 2: out the problems we have here. Should we be spending 772 00:41:03,213 --> 00:41:07,652 Speaker 2: more time and energy, both governmentally, culturally and individually on 773 00:41:07,773 --> 00:41:11,493 Speaker 2: things that we can control? I mean, it goes back 774 00:41:11,533 --> 00:41:14,773 Speaker 2: to the Great Marcus Ralis. I think it was actually 775 00:41:14,773 --> 00:41:18,493 Speaker 2: probably Epictetus that said this, But Marcus Ralius, whatever, the 776 00:41:18,533 --> 00:41:21,293 Speaker 2: great Stoics, some things are in our control while others 777 00:41:21,333 --> 00:41:24,333 Speaker 2: are not. We can control our opinion, choice, desire, aversion, 778 00:41:24,373 --> 00:41:26,813 Speaker 2: and in a word, everything of our own doing. We 779 00:41:26,853 --> 00:41:29,933 Speaker 2: don't control our body, property, reputation, position, in a word, 780 00:41:30,053 --> 00:41:35,173 Speaker 2: everything not of our own doing. And the Stoic principle 781 00:41:35,253 --> 00:41:37,453 Speaker 2: is you go through and you work out what you 782 00:41:37,493 --> 00:41:39,973 Speaker 2: can control and you can have a positive influence on, 783 00:41:40,173 --> 00:41:44,373 Speaker 2: and you focus most of your energies there. So no 784 00:41:44,373 --> 00:41:47,133 Speaker 2: one's denying that we should be focusing some of our 785 00:41:47,173 --> 00:41:50,093 Speaker 2: attention on international affairs. Absolutely, that would be crazy. And 786 00:41:50,093 --> 00:41:51,933 Speaker 2: as the text that says, follow the politics or the 787 00:41:51,933 --> 00:41:56,093 Speaker 2: politics will follow you, yep. But the question is are 788 00:41:56,173 --> 00:42:00,813 Speaker 2: we spending too much time on these international issues that 789 00:42:01,213 --> 00:42:04,133 Speaker 2: we have a very small effect on. Yep. 790 00:42:04,213 --> 00:42:06,453 Speaker 4: Oh at one hundreds oh, one hundred and eighty ten 791 00:42:06,493 --> 00:42:08,333 Speaker 4: eighty is the number to call love to hear your thoughts. 792 00:42:08,373 --> 00:42:10,292 Speaker 2: And we're having a great chat about this very issue 793 00:42:10,333 --> 00:42:12,973 Speaker 2: with Melissa before the news came in like a steamroller 794 00:42:13,093 --> 00:42:15,053 Speaker 2: and we had to let you go. So sorry, sorry 795 00:42:15,053 --> 00:42:21,893 Speaker 2: about that, So welcome back. So your position on this is, 796 00:42:21,933 --> 00:42:23,293 Speaker 2: if you could, if you could get us up to 797 00:42:23,333 --> 00:42:25,373 Speaker 2: speed again, just to sum us up those people that 798 00:42:25,413 --> 00:42:26,133 Speaker 2: are just tuning in. 799 00:42:27,293 --> 00:42:29,893 Speaker 18: Yeah, just sort of around. It's not really a binary 800 00:42:29,893 --> 00:42:32,212 Speaker 18: issue that you would only have the government focus on 801 00:42:32,213 --> 00:42:34,772 Speaker 18: one saying that other than the other, that we can 802 00:42:34,933 --> 00:42:36,853 Speaker 18: we can be doing these things at the same time 803 00:42:36,933 --> 00:42:40,413 Speaker 18: as local issues as well as international and just kind 804 00:42:40,453 --> 00:42:43,853 Speaker 18: of thinking about us as global citizens and new Zealanders 805 00:42:43,853 --> 00:42:46,293 Speaker 18: are pretty international in general, so do we kind of 806 00:42:46,653 --> 00:42:49,533 Speaker 18: does that match our social fabric and moral fabric that 807 00:42:49,573 --> 00:42:51,373 Speaker 18: we want to turn a blind eye to something that 808 00:42:51,413 --> 00:42:54,973 Speaker 18: we can see that's happening and just consider it not 809 00:42:55,013 --> 00:42:57,413 Speaker 18: our problem. I don't think that's who we are historically. 810 00:42:57,853 --> 00:43:03,212 Speaker 19: Yeah, would you what would you say. 811 00:43:02,213 --> 00:43:05,293 Speaker 18: Going to have any impacts? Probably not. But then the 812 00:43:05,373 --> 00:43:08,133 Speaker 18: question is, well, then what should New Zealand do otherwise 813 00:43:08,373 --> 00:43:13,213 Speaker 18: to recognize something really terrible going on? What does that 814 00:43:13,253 --> 00:43:14,613 Speaker 18: look like? Because it can't be nothing. 815 00:43:15,053 --> 00:43:17,813 Speaker 2: Well, what would you say? You know, people, and this 816 00:43:17,853 --> 00:43:20,733 Speaker 2: is around a lot and you know Bill Mayer was 817 00:43:20,733 --> 00:43:22,453 Speaker 2: talking about it the other day and his show about 818 00:43:22,453 --> 00:43:25,573 Speaker 2: the situation in Nigeria, in the situation in South to down. 819 00:43:26,293 --> 00:43:28,213 Speaker 2: So when you say that we turn to turn a 820 00:43:28,253 --> 00:43:31,853 Speaker 2: blind eye to things, there are so many horrific things 821 00:43:31,893 --> 00:43:35,093 Speaker 2: happening in the world, and what's happening in Gaza is 822 00:43:35,693 --> 00:43:38,333 Speaker 2: one of these incredibly horrific things. But do you think, 823 00:43:39,093 --> 00:43:42,093 Speaker 2: for whatever reason, our focus has turned on to some 824 00:43:42,213 --> 00:43:45,893 Speaker 2: things rather than others. So we are actually all turning 825 00:43:45,933 --> 00:43:50,213 Speaker 2: a blind eye to some things, whether we like it 826 00:43:50,333 --> 00:43:53,613 Speaker 2: or not. Melissa, I think some. 827 00:43:53,493 --> 00:43:57,573 Speaker 18: Get more attention at a time out of need. Right, 828 00:43:57,653 --> 00:44:01,413 Speaker 18: that's a volume of deaths that have been incurred against 829 00:44:02,093 --> 00:44:04,613 Speaker 18: Palacinian people by the Israelis at the moment, it's just 830 00:44:05,173 --> 00:44:07,813 Speaker 18: you know, to a level that's well, while what's going 831 00:44:07,813 --> 00:44:09,973 Speaker 18: on in the Kong Go in Southdain it's really bad, 832 00:44:10,493 --> 00:44:13,733 Speaker 18: that's not the level and the degree of you know, 833 00:44:14,253 --> 00:44:19,292 Speaker 18: Israel relies on international governments providing them with within reds, 834 00:44:19,293 --> 00:44:22,013 Speaker 18: providing them with funding to kill from the States. So 835 00:44:22,133 --> 00:44:27,893 Speaker 18: it unfortunately just is a global issue that imhaps other countries. 836 00:44:29,813 --> 00:44:32,653 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I mean some people and there's some 837 00:44:32,853 --> 00:44:35,493 Speaker 2: times some estimates are that four hundred thousand people have 838 00:44:35,573 --> 00:44:39,133 Speaker 2: been killed in South Sudan civil wars between you know, 839 00:44:39,173 --> 00:44:42,293 Speaker 2: that was just between twenty thirteen and two thousand and eighteen, 840 00:44:42,373 --> 00:44:45,133 Speaker 2: and that that sort of continues on. So there are 841 00:44:45,813 --> 00:44:49,253 Speaker 2: ongoing absolute horrors in that region of the world. 842 00:44:50,013 --> 00:44:55,213 Speaker 18: So then that kind of increases the value and importance 843 00:44:55,253 --> 00:44:58,133 Speaker 18: of an effect of view in where you've got people 844 00:44:58,133 --> 00:45:01,573 Speaker 18: that are charged with or issued an arrest warrant by 845 00:45:01,613 --> 00:45:06,133 Speaker 18: the UN that can be action or that these and 846 00:45:06,453 --> 00:45:09,893 Speaker 18: similar to what you're kind of identify fying of wins. 847 00:45:09,933 --> 00:45:13,253 Speaker 18: In Peter's commentary on the ineffectiveness of the UN Security 848 00:45:13,293 --> 00:45:17,053 Speaker 18: Council as it is currently structured. It's true, that just 849 00:45:17,133 --> 00:45:19,773 Speaker 18: means that this world order or this kind of global 850 00:45:20,853 --> 00:45:24,973 Speaker 18: function of the UN is really important for countries places 851 00:45:25,013 --> 00:45:29,453 Speaker 18: like Congo, like South Sudan, like Palestine, who outside of 852 00:45:29,493 --> 00:45:33,133 Speaker 18: that have very little power and ability to improve their lives. 853 00:45:34,413 --> 00:45:36,893 Speaker 2: So do you think it's the magnitude of the situation 854 00:45:37,013 --> 00:45:41,253 Speaker 2: that's causing so much concentrated energy from New Zealand on 855 00:45:41,293 --> 00:45:46,093 Speaker 2: the situation in Gaza as opposed to these other ones, 856 00:45:46,373 --> 00:45:49,732 Speaker 2: Because I wonder if it's potentially because of a lot 857 00:45:49,773 --> 00:45:52,252 Speaker 2: of it's to do with our US focus and that 858 00:45:52,413 --> 00:45:55,013 Speaker 2: you know, the social media companies come out of US, 859 00:45:55,053 --> 00:45:58,933 Speaker 2: and we're very focused on the US, so what they're 860 00:45:58,973 --> 00:46:01,652 Speaker 2: focused on, we become focused on. Do you think there's 861 00:46:01,653 --> 00:46:04,253 Speaker 2: any truth in that, Melissa? 862 00:46:04,493 --> 00:46:06,373 Speaker 18: Probably in a lot of ways, New Zealand has some 863 00:46:06,453 --> 00:46:11,333 Speaker 18: kind of weird obsession with America, right, But it's how 864 00:46:11,333 --> 00:46:14,413 Speaker 18: egregious it is. It's the degree of corruption that's going on. 865 00:46:14,493 --> 00:46:17,573 Speaker 18: You've got apex funding both the Democrats and the Republicans. 866 00:46:18,013 --> 00:46:20,853 Speaker 18: You've got left wing governments in Australia and in the UK, 867 00:46:21,013 --> 00:46:23,053 Speaker 18: and a right wing in New Zealand, and they're all 868 00:46:23,133 --> 00:46:26,773 Speaker 18: making the same decisions on as one country, and it 869 00:46:26,933 --> 00:46:30,613 Speaker 18: just it doesn't sit right with people to watch these 870 00:46:30,653 --> 00:46:33,773 Speaker 18: babies and children be sorted in this way and to 871 00:46:33,853 --> 00:46:37,333 Speaker 18: see that there's some kind of corruption and fraud going 872 00:46:37,333 --> 00:46:40,733 Speaker 18: on with one country then having the right to just 873 00:46:42,813 --> 00:46:47,613 Speaker 18: permit these atrocities which are widely recognized consistently as being 874 00:46:48,133 --> 00:46:53,053 Speaker 18: war crimes and committing internet breaking international law, that kind 875 00:46:53,093 --> 00:46:53,893 Speaker 18: of how. 876 00:46:53,853 --> 00:46:56,093 Speaker 2: Do you feel about how do you feel about with 877 00:46:56,453 --> 00:46:59,933 Speaker 2: all this and you know, how do you feel about 878 00:47:00,093 --> 00:47:02,613 Speaker 2: har Maas and what harmas is doing to the people 879 00:47:03,133 --> 00:47:04,893 Speaker 2: in Palestine. 880 00:47:05,573 --> 00:47:08,093 Speaker 18: Yeah, I think that har mass is a natural result 881 00:47:08,173 --> 00:47:11,053 Speaker 18: of the lives that they've had to live under. I 882 00:47:11,053 --> 00:47:14,053 Speaker 18: think if you came to my home and killed my 883 00:47:14,133 --> 00:47:17,693 Speaker 18: family in my face, took controlled my electricity, my water, 884 00:47:18,413 --> 00:47:21,733 Speaker 18: my ability to own my own home, you restricted my 885 00:47:21,773 --> 00:47:23,453 Speaker 18: ability to move in and out of the country, you 886 00:47:23,453 --> 00:47:27,333 Speaker 18: destabilize my entire government, I'd probably be kind of angry. 887 00:47:29,893 --> 00:47:32,293 Speaker 2: Kind of angry is one thing. But what happened on 888 00:47:32,293 --> 00:47:36,893 Speaker 2: October seven is what happened on October seven is you know, 889 00:47:37,013 --> 00:47:40,133 Speaker 2: by whatever, whatever however you sit on it, what happened 890 00:47:40,173 --> 00:47:44,093 Speaker 2: on October seven was horrific beyond imagination. 891 00:47:44,533 --> 00:47:47,573 Speaker 18: The degree of crimes that have been happening against Palestine 892 00:47:47,613 --> 00:47:50,373 Speaker 18: for a very long time. You know, you really look 893 00:47:50,413 --> 00:47:54,733 Speaker 18: at October seven, Wasn't that bad in comparing the scale 894 00:47:55,293 --> 00:47:58,533 Speaker 18: of atrocities that have been going on against Palestinians for 895 00:47:58,653 --> 00:47:59,453 Speaker 18: this whole century? 896 00:47:59,933 --> 00:48:01,173 Speaker 2: Do you think do you think just going back to 897 00:48:01,213 --> 00:48:03,853 Speaker 2: the topic that we're originally talking about, do you think 898 00:48:04,173 --> 00:48:07,533 Speaker 2: so you know, you say that there is enough energy 899 00:48:07,573 --> 00:48:08,853 Speaker 2: for us to look at a lot of things, and 900 00:48:08,853 --> 00:48:11,013 Speaker 2: that's that's true. I always find annoying when someone says, 901 00:48:11,333 --> 00:48:13,413 Speaker 2: why is someone dealing with this when there's this happening, 902 00:48:13,453 --> 00:48:15,373 Speaker 2: and you go, well, people can deal with multiple things 903 00:48:15,413 --> 00:48:17,053 Speaker 2: at the same time. They can keep many balls in 904 00:48:17,053 --> 00:48:19,493 Speaker 2: the air. But do you think and do you think 905 00:48:19,573 --> 00:48:22,373 Speaker 2: there is anything in the idea that you can just 906 00:48:22,533 --> 00:48:27,453 Speaker 2: be overrun? And I believe the algorithms of the social 907 00:48:27,453 --> 00:48:29,933 Speaker 2: media companies are responsible to a certain extent for this, 908 00:48:30,133 --> 00:48:32,733 Speaker 2: well a large extent where you just get fed the 909 00:48:32,773 --> 00:48:34,933 Speaker 2: horror and the horror and the horror and the horror 910 00:48:35,573 --> 00:48:38,893 Speaker 2: because that engages you and it keeps you coming coming, 911 00:48:38,973 --> 00:48:42,493 Speaker 2: coming back for more. And can you can you can 912 00:48:42,533 --> 00:48:45,173 Speaker 2: you see how that could potentially take away your focus 913 00:48:45,293 --> 00:48:49,013 Speaker 2: from I would say, your responsibilities go from your family, 914 00:48:49,333 --> 00:48:51,893 Speaker 2: and then you know your immediate family, than your wider family, 915 00:48:51,933 --> 00:48:55,133 Speaker 2: than your community, than you than your country. Can you 916 00:48:55,173 --> 00:48:59,733 Speaker 2: see how that that there could be that nefarious algorithmic 917 00:49:00,893 --> 00:49:04,693 Speaker 2: pressure on people and as a result, individuals and countries 918 00:49:05,133 --> 00:49:07,133 Speaker 2: spend more time, even though you can do a lot 919 00:49:07,133 --> 00:49:09,013 Speaker 2: of things at once, they spend more time then is 920 00:49:09,133 --> 00:49:11,773 Speaker 2: due to be spent in one area. 921 00:49:13,493 --> 00:49:15,893 Speaker 18: I still I hear what you're saying, but I still 922 00:49:15,973 --> 00:49:19,933 Speaker 18: do think it's it's the witnessing the gross injustice and 923 00:49:19,973 --> 00:49:22,773 Speaker 18: the terrible atrocities that it is making people just feel 924 00:49:22,813 --> 00:49:27,493 Speaker 18: so engrossed by it to just think, how how can 925 00:49:27,533 --> 00:49:30,093 Speaker 18: this two years later be happening to these four kids 926 00:49:30,133 --> 00:49:33,213 Speaker 18: and these people who aren't being given refugee status. No 927 00:49:33,213 --> 00:49:35,093 Speaker 18: one's taken them in as refugees, But where do you 928 00:49:35,133 --> 00:49:37,373 Speaker 18: go to avoid it? And I think that can be 929 00:49:37,413 --> 00:49:38,933 Speaker 18: really overwhelming for people. 930 00:49:39,453 --> 00:49:43,413 Speaker 3: But based on what Winston Peters said to the un Assembly, 931 00:49:43,573 --> 00:49:45,613 Speaker 3: do you not see that nuance, Melissa? 932 00:49:45,653 --> 00:49:47,493 Speaker 4: And this is what I get a bit confused by 933 00:49:47,613 --> 00:49:50,413 Speaker 4: the outrage of saying that we're not taking a stance 934 00:49:50,413 --> 00:49:53,093 Speaker 4: here and he made pretty clear the atrocities committed by 935 00:49:53,173 --> 00:49:56,453 Speaker 4: Israel and by Hermas and it is devastation and the 936 00:49:56,453 --> 00:49:58,613 Speaker 4: words here in New Zealand is deeply troubled by the 937 00:49:58,693 --> 00:50:01,853 Speaker 4: humanitarian disasters in Gaza and around the world. 938 00:50:02,373 --> 00:50:03,692 Speaker 3: So that is a stance there. 939 00:50:03,773 --> 00:50:07,133 Speaker 4: And the reason that we haven't recognized Palestinian as a 940 00:50:07,173 --> 00:50:10,013 Speaker 4: state is because our country and our government beliefs that 941 00:50:10,053 --> 00:50:13,692 Speaker 4: will be detrimental to ending this conflict. And I think 942 00:50:13,693 --> 00:50:15,613 Speaker 4: that's the nuance there that people have missed. 943 00:50:17,213 --> 00:50:20,613 Speaker 18: So there's about one hundred and ninety two UN member states, right, 944 00:50:20,773 --> 00:50:25,013 Speaker 18: and something like a one fifty have recognized talesign. So 945 00:50:25,133 --> 00:50:26,573 Speaker 18: are we really going to be the one of the 946 00:50:26,613 --> 00:50:29,813 Speaker 18: forty two that we know better than everyone else that 947 00:50:30,013 --> 00:50:31,773 Speaker 18: now is not the right time. And also around that 948 00:50:32,333 --> 00:50:36,693 Speaker 18: point of timing being wrong. Part of it is around 949 00:50:36,733 --> 00:50:40,013 Speaker 18: the fact that Israel to Sohoto to annex the West 950 00:50:40,053 --> 00:50:43,293 Speaker 18: Bank and control that. So it does have some relevance, 951 00:50:43,333 --> 00:50:47,093 Speaker 18: even if it is minor, around saying, well, you know, 952 00:50:47,173 --> 00:50:49,652 Speaker 18: the global community is saying no, you know, you know, 953 00:50:49,693 --> 00:50:51,292 Speaker 18: we won't accept that as an action. 954 00:50:52,493 --> 00:50:54,453 Speaker 2: Well, thank you for you call, Melissa, appreciate and thanks 955 00:50:54,493 --> 00:50:55,692 Speaker 2: for hanging out over the news. 956 00:50:55,773 --> 00:50:57,933 Speaker 4: Yeah, very thoughtful.

I cannot believe what this woman is saying. 964 00:51:18,373 --> 00:51:21,293 Speaker 2: The swarped idea that October the seventh was not by 965 00:51:21,333 --> 00:51:25,293 Speaker 2: Barrack is abhorrent. As soon as she said the word binary, 966 00:51:25,333 --> 00:51:28,333 Speaker 2: I knew that what this was about. This is ridiculous, 967 00:51:28,453 --> 00:51:33,413 Speaker 2: says this texta in response to Melissa.

All they want is the Jews to 970 00:51:38,533 --> 00:51:40,293 Speaker 2: be wiped off the face of the earth. And that's 971 00:51:40,293 --> 00:51:45,093 Speaker 2: a fact, according to Ken. Hi, Matt and Tyler, Hey, 972 00:51:45,093 --> 00:51:48,093 Speaker 2: this is on what we were trying to talk about. Yep, okay, good, 973 00:51:48,253 --> 00:51:50,493 Speaker 2: Hi Matt and Tyler.

Look after your own backyard first. 975 00:51:54,373 --> 00:51:56,213 Speaker 2: That doesn't mean that the horrific world events are not 976 00:51:56,293 --> 00:51:59,453 Speaker 2: important and aside, Matt, just finished reading your book well down. 977 00:51:59,533 --> 00:52:01,413 Speaker 2: I found it very helpful.

It is just 985 00:52:19,373 --> 00:52:22,773 Speaker 4: so overwhelming, and I think that sums up a lot 986 00:52:22,773 --> 00:52:25,053 Speaker 4: of it, that it is one of those things that 987 00:52:25,293 --> 00:52:30,253 Speaker 4: most of us have no control over, and it is overwhelming. 988 00:52:29,773 --> 00:52:32,573 Speaker 3: For a lot of people. But there are genuine problems 989 00:52:32,693 --> 00:52:35,053 Speaker 3: right here on home that we do have the power 990 00:52:35,053 --> 00:52:37,133 Speaker 3: to try and change, and there are big problems. A 991 00:52:37,133 --> 00:52:38,933 Speaker 3: lot of people are worried about the economy. That's a 992 00:52:38,933 --> 00:52:39,533 Speaker 3: big problem. 993 00:52:39,733 --> 00:52:43,213 Speaker 2: Yes, So maybe the question is how much of your 994 00:52:43,253 --> 00:52:47,013 Speaker 2: life you should spend on things that you don't really 995 00:52:47,013 --> 00:52:49,893 Speaker 2: have a lot of control over. And yeah, I mean, 996 00:52:49,893 --> 00:52:52,453 Speaker 2: as this person says, if you follow the politics of 997 00:52:52,453 --> 00:52:55,493 Speaker 2: the politics, follow you. And I've had huge arguments with 998 00:52:55,533 --> 00:52:57,813 Speaker 2: my dad about this actually, because I say, you know, 999 00:52:58,533 --> 00:53:01,933 Speaker 2: you're spending too much of your time, you know, on 1000 00:53:02,013 --> 00:53:04,573 Speaker 2: certain issues, yes, and he goes, yeah, but you need 1001 00:53:04,613 --> 00:53:07,613 Speaker 2: to know the issues of the world. And I absolutely 1002 00:53:07,613 --> 00:53:11,293 Speaker 2: absolutely agree with it. But you know, if the algorithm 1003 00:53:11,373 --> 00:53:13,213 Speaker 2: is just freeding you this horror and this horror and 1004 00:53:13,253 --> 00:53:15,373 Speaker 2: this horror and this horror to the point where you 1005 00:53:15,653 --> 00:53:18,252 Speaker 2: are being distracted from time with your kids, or time 1006 00:53:18,293 --> 00:53:20,732 Speaker 2: with your friends, or time with your family, or opportunities 1007 00:53:20,773 --> 00:53:24,732 Speaker 2: to do good in your own community. You know, you 1008 00:53:24,813 --> 00:53:28,813 Speaker 2: could be helping with the charity, you could be doing 1009 00:53:28,973 --> 00:53:31,493 Speaker 2: a number of things. You know, you could be helping 1010 00:53:31,533 --> 00:53:33,293 Speaker 2: friends that are in need. And there's a mental health 1011 00:53:33,293 --> 00:53:36,453 Speaker 2: crisis in this country. You could be you could be 1012 00:53:36,933 --> 00:53:40,413 Speaker 2: helping friends. So you know, it might be worth just 1013 00:53:40,453 --> 00:53:44,173 Speaker 2: taking an audit and going how much of my time 1014 00:53:44,413 --> 00:53:47,893 Speaker 2: and energy am I spending on issues that are being 1015 00:53:48,333 --> 00:53:51,772 Speaker 2: that are coming through my Instagram feed or my TikTok feed. 1016 00:53:52,693 --> 00:53:54,133 Speaker 2: You know, it might just be worth doing an audit. 1017 00:53:55,093 --> 00:53:58,933 Speaker 2: Maybe it's worth ninety five percent, Maybe it's worth five percent, 1018 00:53:59,053 --> 00:54:01,053 Speaker 2: Maybe it's worth three percent. Who knows, Maybe it's worth 1019 00:54:01,053 --> 00:54:05,653 Speaker 2: thirty percent of your emotional time and your political energy. 1020 00:54:05,733 --> 00:54:06,133 Speaker 2: I don't know. 1021 00:54:06,533 --> 00:54:07,973 Speaker 3: Nicely put do the calculation. 1022 00:54:08,893 --> 00:54:10,813 Speaker 2: Only ten percent of people have voted so far in 1023 00:54:10,853 --> 00:54:13,732 Speaker 2: the Auckland local election. 1024 00:54:14,013 --> 00:54:16,813 Speaker 4: We don't care about that, apparently, right, it is twenty 1025 00:54:17,253 --> 00:54:18,133 Speaker 4: three past two. 1026 00:54:18,133 --> 00:54:18,853 Speaker 2: Back in a month. 1027 00:54:22,653 --> 00:54:26,013 Speaker 1: Matt Heath and Taylor Adams afternoons call oh eight hundred 1028 00:54:26,013 --> 00:54:27,813 Speaker 1: and eighty ten eighty on Youth Talk. 1029 00:54:27,693 --> 00:54:30,772 Speaker 4: SIV afternoon to you.

So we've all heard that honesty 1040 00:54:56,773 --> 00:54:59,093 Speaker 4: is the best policy, but is it really? Graham Norton, 1041 00:54:59,453 --> 00:55:02,013 Speaker 4: with years of experience as an agony uncle have sort, 1042 00:55:02,053 --> 00:55:05,213 Speaker 4: said in a recent interview that no, sometimes it's kinda 1043 00:55:05,373 --> 00:55:08,053 Speaker 4: to lie, he said, think about it. Not every truth 1044 00:55:08,093 --> 00:55:11,973 Speaker 4: is how Sometimes brutal honesty just causes pain and nobody 1045 00:55:11,973 --> 00:55:12,533 Speaker 4: thinks you for that. 1046 00:55:12,893 --> 00:55:16,013 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I disagree one hundred percent. I think he's 1047 00:55:16,013 --> 00:55:19,293 Speaker 2: a fantastic broadcaster, potentially the best interview of the world's 1048 00:55:19,333 --> 00:55:24,053 Speaker 2: ever known.

To go back to our main character syndrome, 1050 00:55:26,573 --> 00:55:28,773 Speaker 2: Absolutely love when there's a Kiwi in the red chair. 1051 00:55:29,613 --> 00:55:32,533 Speaker 2: We've made some incredible appearances there. Interviewed Graham Norton a 1052 00:55:32,573 --> 00:55:36,493 Speaker 2: couple of times, actually, and phenomenal gentlemen. Ye loves loves 1053 00:55:36,493 --> 00:55:36,812 Speaker 2: of wine. 1054 00:55:36,853 --> 00:55:38,013 Speaker 3: Seems very nice. 1055 00:55:37,973 --> 00:55:41,573 Speaker 2: And his wine is fantastic, lovely wine then vivo stuff. 1056 00:55:41,613 --> 00:55:44,893 Speaker 2: But I think he's wrong entirely here. I think that 1057 00:55:45,053 --> 00:55:51,693 Speaker 2: I think lying is you should absolutely try not to lie. Absolutely, 1058 00:55:52,133 --> 00:55:56,053 Speaker 2: I think you should lie as as as little as possible. Lies, 1059 00:55:56,093 --> 00:55:58,293 Speaker 2: even the little ones, and in my humble opinion, make 1060 00:55:58,333 --> 00:55:59,733 Speaker 2: the world a worst place. 1061 00:56:00,133 --> 00:56:03,293 Speaker 4: Wo See, I've got to say, I believe I agree 1062 00:56:03,293 --> 00:56:06,053 Speaker 4: with you that lies are a bad thing. But I'm 1063 00:56:06,093 --> 00:56:09,413 Speaker 4: with Graham Norton here. Clearly, there there are some moments 1064 00:56:09,453 --> 00:56:11,973 Speaker 4: where you need to bend the truth or a little 1065 00:56:11,973 --> 00:56:15,013 Speaker 4: bit of a white lie to briteke someone's overall feelings, 1066 00:56:15,013 --> 00:56:18,652 Speaker 4: because that brutal honesty is going to cause nothing but 1067 00:56:18,733 --> 00:56:19,973 Speaker 4: grief for both parties. 1068 00:56:21,213 --> 00:56:25,573 Speaker 2: No. No, I think people that work in business here, 1069 00:56:25,813 --> 00:56:28,893 Speaker 2: you know, people that run businesses here, say, for example, 1070 00:56:29,173 --> 00:56:31,293 Speaker 2: if you run a cafe. Let's just give an example. 1071 00:56:31,333 --> 00:56:33,573 Speaker 2: You run a cafe and you come over and you've 1072 00:56:33,573 --> 00:56:35,253 Speaker 2: served a meal to people, and they don't want to 1073 00:56:35,253 --> 00:56:37,212 Speaker 2: give you the brutal truth that that meal wasn't good. 1074 00:56:37,693 --> 00:56:40,613 Speaker 2: So they say, and you go, how is everything? You go, great, 1075 00:56:40,653 --> 00:56:42,413 Speaker 2: thank you, even though all the way up to that 1076 00:56:42,453 --> 00:56:44,733 Speaker 2: point you've been complaining to your partner about that meal, 1077 00:56:44,973 --> 00:56:46,293 Speaker 2: but you don't want to give them the brutal of 1078 00:56:46,333 --> 00:56:49,133 Speaker 2: truth because you know, you don't want to hurt their feelings. 1079 00:56:49,373 --> 00:56:51,813 Speaker 2: As a result, they keep serving terrible meals and they 1080 00:56:51,853 --> 00:56:57,293 Speaker 2: go out of business. So I think honesty is actually 1081 00:56:57,333 --> 00:56:59,733 Speaker 2: a gift someone telling the truth, and you should not 1082 00:56:59,733 --> 00:57:01,652 Speaker 2: be offended by honesty. If something's true, how can you 1083 00:57:01,653 --> 00:57:04,293 Speaker 2: be offended by it? Someone tells you the truth, then 1084 00:57:04,413 --> 00:57:08,013 Speaker 2: you thank them for the information. You can't be offended 1085 00:57:08,013 --> 00:57:08,533 Speaker 2: by the true truth. 1086 00:57:08,773 --> 00:57:09,652 Speaker 3: This is gonna be going. 1087 00:57:09,893 --> 00:57:13,053 Speaker 2: And and if what someone says is not true, then 1088 00:57:13,173 --> 00:57:15,613 Speaker 2: how can you be offended by that? Because that's just 1089 00:57:15,733 --> 00:57:18,533 Speaker 2: it's not true. It's not it's ridiculous. So it has 1090 00:57:18,533 --> 00:57:20,893 Speaker 2: no meaning if it's if it's if it's not true, 1091 00:57:20,933 --> 00:57:22,733 Speaker 2: it has no meaning. If it is true, it's information. 1092 00:57:22,853 --> 00:57:24,813 Speaker 4: That's very logical. But what do you say? Oh, one 1093 00:57:24,893 --> 00:57:27,413 Speaker 4: hundred eighty ten eighty is a number to call? Is 1094 00:57:27,453 --> 00:57:29,533 Speaker 4: it ever okay to tell a lie? 1095 00:57:29,533 --> 00:57:31,573 Speaker 2: I love to hear your thoughts, Matton Tyler. If you 1096 00:57:31,613 --> 00:57:34,133 Speaker 2: misses us, do these genes make my ass look big? 1097 00:57:34,613 --> 00:57:36,653 Speaker 2: Do you tell her the truth? If you're met. Yes, 1098 00:57:36,893 --> 00:57:38,733 Speaker 2: that's one of the edge cases that we'll talk about. 1099 00:57:42,093 --> 00:57:42,733 Speaker 2: Jus talks. 1100 00:57:42,773 --> 00:57:46,413 Speaker 13: It'd be headlines with blue bubble taxis.

So we're talking about line. 1122 00:59:00,573 --> 00:59:02,373 Speaker 4: This is on the back of an interview Graham Norton 1123 00:59:02,453 --> 00:59:05,253 Speaker 4: has just done. He said, years of experience as an 1124 00:59:05,253 --> 00:59:07,613 Speaker 4: agony uncle of sorts. It was asked a question, is 1125 00:59:07,613 --> 00:59:12,173 Speaker 4: it ever oak to lie? And he said, absolutely, is it? 1126 00:59:12,453 --> 00:59:14,453 Speaker 4: Sometimes it is kind of to lie. Think about it. 1127 00:59:14,493 --> 00:59:17,213 Speaker 4: Not every truth is helpful. Sometimes brudge of honesty is 1128 00:59:17,373 --> 00:59:18,093 Speaker 4: just too cruel. 1129 00:59:18,413 --> 00:59:21,573 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I'm saying that you should always attempt to 1130 00:59:21,613 --> 00:59:23,253 Speaker 2: tell the truth. And I'm not saying that I always 1131 00:59:23,253 --> 00:59:25,493 Speaker 2: get there. I'm saying that there are times when you know, 1132 00:59:25,773 --> 00:59:28,533 Speaker 2: I catch myself not telling telling untruth, but I know 1133 00:59:28,653 --> 00:59:32,013 Speaker 2: that that's not the right path. YEA Morally, Morally, yeah, 1134 00:59:32,053 --> 00:59:34,413 Speaker 2: I disagree with Graham Norton.

Yeah? 1147 01:00:16,133 --> 01:00:17,653 Speaker 3: I think embellishing was clearly. 1148 01:00:17,493 --> 01:00:19,253 Speaker 2: But no one really thought it was twenty five thousands. 1149 01:00:20,653 --> 01:00:23,333 Speaker 2: There is a lot of them coming through though. Scenario 1150 01:00:23,413 --> 01:00:25,893 Speaker 2: you're building a house. The process is incredibly painful, and 1151 01:00:25,933 --> 01:00:28,933 Speaker 2: you face every challenge possible and the process turns into 1152 01:00:28,933 --> 01:00:31,053 Speaker 2: a negative cost the experience. The client asks for an 1153 01:00:31,133 --> 01:00:33,373 Speaker 2: update and how is everything going. Do you put a 1154 01:00:33,413 --> 01:00:35,733 Speaker 2: negative mark on their dream home? Or do you tell 1155 01:00:35,773 --> 01:00:37,533 Speaker 2: them it's going to be great as the end product 1156 01:00:37,653 --> 01:00:38,853 Speaker 2: is going to be what they asked for? 1157 01:00:40,413 --> 01:00:42,813 Speaker 4: And you would say to that, you would be brutally honest. 1158 01:00:43,173 --> 01:00:46,213 Speaker 4: And the someone was building their dream home and you 1159 01:00:46,293 --> 01:00:49,173 Speaker 4: came along and it looked god awful, you would say 1160 01:00:49,173 --> 01:00:51,413 Speaker 4: brutally in and say, hey, look, I don't I don't 1161 01:00:51,413 --> 01:00:53,693 Speaker 4: know how to tell this to you, but your house looks. 1162 01:00:53,413 --> 01:00:58,533 Speaker 2: Creep I mean that that's a real edge case, there, 1163 01:00:58,573 --> 01:01:01,293 Speaker 2: isn't it. So someone's just finished something that they've got 1164 01:01:01,333 --> 01:01:03,493 Speaker 2: a giant mortgage on. This is what you're saying. Yeah, 1165 01:01:03,533 --> 01:01:06,213 Speaker 2: so someone's got a giant mortgage on a place they're 1166 01:01:06,213 --> 01:01:10,133 Speaker 2: moved and there's no way out, and you say, they 1167 01:01:10,173 --> 01:01:11,293 Speaker 2: ask you what you think of their house? 1168 01:01:11,413 --> 01:01:14,733 Speaker 4: Yeah, So that is a tough one, isn't it. That 1169 01:01:14,853 --> 01:01:16,693 Speaker 4: is a really tough one. I mean, maybe you dodge 1170 01:01:16,733 --> 01:01:18,453 Speaker 4: the question and you change tech. 1171 01:01:18,573 --> 01:01:21,813 Speaker 2: Well, George says, he texted, has texted, and if the 1172 01:01:21,853 --> 01:01:23,933 Speaker 2: truth hurts you, then you are most likely living in 1173 01:01:23,933 --> 01:01:26,053 Speaker 2: a lie. That's what my grandfather told me. 1174 01:01:26,733 --> 01:01:28,093 Speaker 3: Why why is grandfather? 1175 01:01:28,773 --> 01:01:30,973 Speaker 4: But I've got to say, you know, I mean, call 1176 01:01:31,013 --> 01:01:34,253 Speaker 4: me out here if you think that I'm getting on 1177 01:01:34,293 --> 01:01:37,493 Speaker 4: my high horse here. But generally, when I lie, I 1178 01:01:37,573 --> 01:01:40,453 Speaker 4: think I am doing it for altruistic reasons that those 1179 01:01:40,533 --> 01:01:44,533 Speaker 4: white lies, I don't gain anything from it. All I 1180 01:01:44,653 --> 01:01:47,413 Speaker 4: gain from it is hopefully sparing the feelings of someone 1181 01:01:47,413 --> 01:01:50,613 Speaker 4: that I'm talking to. So for example, you know, friend 1182 01:01:50,653 --> 01:01:55,413 Speaker 4: gets a new haircut and the barber's absolutely butchered the 1183 01:01:55,813 --> 01:01:57,693 Speaker 4: head of here, but they are pretty toughed on it. 1184 01:01:57,773 --> 01:01:59,733 Speaker 4: Maybe they're feeling a little bit, you know, I don't know, 1185 01:01:59,853 --> 01:02:02,693 Speaker 4: is this any good? And they asked and say, hey, Tyler, Direckon, 1186 01:02:02,733 --> 01:02:03,493 Speaker 4: my haircut. 1187 01:02:03,213 --> 01:02:05,613 Speaker 2: Looks pretty good. And I think, yeah, it's really nice. 1188 01:02:05,653 --> 01:02:07,773 Speaker 4: They've done a really good job, even though I know 1189 01:02:07,813 --> 01:02:09,093 Speaker 4: they'vetely butchered. 1190 01:02:09,253 --> 01:02:11,533 Speaker 2: Well, I guess that's it's a question of opinion, And 1191 01:02:11,573 --> 01:02:13,453 Speaker 2: I'm not sure if I trust your taste to be 1192 01:02:14,013 --> 01:02:17,533 Speaker 2: brutally honest on a discussion about honesty, Tyler. But aren't 1193 01:02:17,573 --> 01:02:21,453 Speaker 2: you just making it that they aren't you? If they 1194 01:02:21,493 --> 01:02:23,853 Speaker 2: find out that the haircut is ridiculous. So let's take 1195 01:02:23,893 --> 01:02:26,053 Speaker 2: it to a stupid pair of pants or a stupid 1196 01:02:26,093 --> 01:02:27,773 Speaker 2: shirt that everyone you know, everyone's going to laugh at 1197 01:02:27,773 --> 01:02:29,533 Speaker 2: because it's the same thing, right, Yeah, they got a 1198 01:02:29,533 --> 01:02:31,733 Speaker 2: free shirt on and they said do you think this 1199 01:02:31,813 --> 01:02:33,693 Speaker 2: looks good? And you go yes, and then they go 1200 01:02:33,813 --> 01:02:37,333 Speaker 2: out and everyone they run into things. They're ridiculous. So 1201 01:02:37,413 --> 01:02:40,773 Speaker 2: you have not hurt their feelings there, but you haven't 1202 01:02:40,813 --> 01:02:43,653 Speaker 2: helped them protect their reputation. 1203 01:02:43,773 --> 01:02:44,493 Speaker 3: There's a fair point. 1204 01:02:44,493 --> 01:02:46,253 Speaker 2: What about this one here? This is another edu case. 1205 01:02:46,293 --> 01:02:49,133 Speaker 2: Your dad has Alzheimer's. Your mom died ten years ago. 1206 01:02:49,173 --> 01:02:51,653 Speaker 2: When he asked where his mum and you say she's dead, 1207 01:02:52,013 --> 01:02:56,173 Speaker 2: he is up upset every time. Yeah, so you potentially 1208 01:02:56,213 --> 01:03:00,733 Speaker 2: get into a situation where you traumatize your father over 1209 01:03:00,853 --> 01:03:03,413 Speaker 2: and over and over again. Yeah. Yeah. 1210 01:03:03,453 --> 01:03:05,053 Speaker 4: See that is a tough one. That is a massive, 1211 01:03:05,133 --> 01:03:07,493 Speaker 4: huge case there when it comes to white lives. 1212 01:03:08,093 --> 01:03:10,213 Speaker 2: And another one, I wait underd at eighty ten eighty 1213 01:03:10,253 --> 01:03:13,093 Speaker 2: in business, have you ever had a situation in business 1214 01:03:13,173 --> 01:03:16,373 Speaker 2: with someone Because I believe that New Zealand businesses and 1215 01:03:16,533 --> 01:03:18,213 Speaker 2: art is harsh because I've done a bit of business 1216 01:03:18,253 --> 01:03:20,773 Speaker 2: in Australia and Australians are great because they just tell 1217 01:03:20,813 --> 01:03:23,013 Speaker 2: you they don't like the ideas straight up yep, or 1218 01:03:23,053 --> 01:03:27,133 Speaker 2: they do and they're honest about it. They'll go nah, nah, 1219 01:03:27,333 --> 01:03:29,373 Speaker 2: done it before boring what else you got and you 1220 01:03:29,493 --> 01:03:31,733 Speaker 2: move on. But I feel like New Zealanders in business 1221 01:03:31,773 --> 01:03:34,253 Speaker 2: will bleed you dry with faint praise and lead you 1222 01:03:34,293 --> 01:03:35,773 Speaker 2: on because they don't want to be the person that 1223 01:03:36,733 --> 01:03:39,453 Speaker 2: puts you down. And as a result, you can do 1224 01:03:39,453 --> 01:03:41,853 Speaker 2: a whole lot of damage because you are putting more 1225 01:03:41,893 --> 01:03:47,133 Speaker 2: resources into developing the idea. You're spending more time talking 1226 01:03:47,133 --> 01:03:49,853 Speaker 2: to them and organizing meetings that you could be doing 1227 01:03:49,893 --> 01:03:53,533 Speaker 2: something else, or changing your ideas such that they want 1228 01:03:53,533 --> 01:03:57,293 Speaker 2: to invest in it. So I think in business honesty 1229 01:03:57,413 --> 01:03:59,973 Speaker 2: is so very important. And you know, just on a 1230 01:04:00,013 --> 01:04:02,333 Speaker 2: basic level, going back to that cafe example before, if 1231 01:04:02,333 --> 01:04:04,853 Speaker 2: you're in a shop and someone asks you for feedback, 1232 01:04:05,053 --> 01:04:07,933 Speaker 2: you're not helping them by protecting their feelings because the 1233 01:04:07,973 --> 01:04:12,053 Speaker 2: next customer, you know, there's places that I go to 1234 01:04:12,173 --> 01:04:14,453 Speaker 2: and if the coffee is bad, I just never go back. Yeah, 1235 01:04:14,493 --> 01:04:17,733 Speaker 2: But you know if they ask you about that and 1236 01:04:17,733 --> 01:04:21,853 Speaker 2: you say the coffee's great, then then you're doing more. 1237 01:04:22,013 --> 01:04:22,933 Speaker 2: You're doing them damage. 1238 01:04:23,013 --> 01:04:26,533 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a very fair point. Business owners, cafe owners, hospitality. 1239 01:04:26,893 --> 01:04:29,253 Speaker 4: Are we too polite in this country and do we 1240 01:04:29,413 --> 01:04:31,933 Speaker 4: avoid actually telling the truth and just vote with our feet? 1241 01:04:32,253 --> 01:04:34,253 Speaker 2: I think that's a fair point. That is something keywis do. 1242 01:04:34,653 --> 01:04:36,253 Speaker 2: This person says if you lie, you have to have 1243 01:04:36,253 --> 01:04:38,893 Speaker 2: an excellent memory. Most people don't. That's a good point 1244 01:04:38,973 --> 01:04:41,373 Speaker 2: because you then taking up so much of your cognitive 1245 01:04:41,413 --> 01:04:44,933 Speaker 2: ability to that you know the truth without having to 1246 01:04:44,973 --> 01:04:47,293 Speaker 2: do anything about it. You don't have to hold a 1247 01:04:47,333 --> 01:04:49,893 Speaker 2: lot of things in the air, but if you start 1248 01:04:49,933 --> 01:04:52,613 Speaker 2: telling lies, then you have to remember a whole lot 1249 01:04:52,653 --> 01:04:54,413 Speaker 2: of things and a lot of your brain space is 1250 01:04:54,453 --> 01:04:55,853 Speaker 2: going to be used going what did I say on 1251 01:04:55,893 --> 01:04:57,693 Speaker 2: that as you Where did I say I was? 1252 01:04:57,813 --> 01:04:58,013 Speaker 17: Then? 1253 01:04:59,213 --> 01:05:03,173 Speaker 2: Oh no, now i'm this person here? And another example 1254 01:05:03,533 --> 01:05:09,293 Speaker 2: is another example is say you're running late, right yep, 1255 01:05:09,493 --> 01:05:12,893 Speaker 2: and you say I'll be five minutes, but you know 1256 01:05:12,933 --> 01:05:15,013 Speaker 2: that you're going to be half an hour, right, So 1257 01:05:15,253 --> 01:05:19,533 Speaker 2: that whole time from there you've you've changed there what 1258 01:05:19,573 --> 01:05:22,613 Speaker 2: their you know their plans might change. But also that 1259 01:05:22,693 --> 01:05:24,893 Speaker 2: whole five minutes when you rush the whole next twenty 1260 01:05:24,893 --> 01:05:27,093 Speaker 2: five minutes where you're rushing to their, then you're full 1261 01:05:27,133 --> 01:05:30,053 Speaker 2: of huge amount of stress. But if you say at 1262 01:05:30,053 --> 01:05:31,933 Speaker 2: the time, hey, look I'm sorry I left laid. I'm 1263 01:05:31,933 --> 01:05:34,133 Speaker 2: going to be another twenty five minutes. It may be 1264 01:05:34,213 --> 01:05:36,013 Speaker 2: hard to say that at the point, but it relieves 1265 01:05:36,093 --> 01:05:38,053 Speaker 2: the pressure at that at that stage, right. 1266 01:05:38,013 --> 01:05:39,293 Speaker 3: Yeah, that is a very fair point. 1267 01:05:39,293 --> 01:05:41,773 Speaker 4: What do you say, though, oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty, 1268 01:05:41,973 --> 01:05:44,013 Speaker 4: when is it ever okay to lie? 1269 01:05:44,053 --> 01:05:44,573 Speaker 3: If ever? 1270 01:05:44,973 --> 01:05:46,813 Speaker 4: I love to hear your thoughts? Nineteen nine two is 1271 01:05:46,813 --> 01:05:48,813 Speaker 4: the text number. It is twenty one to three. 1272 01:05:49,853 --> 01:05:53,093 Speaker 1: Matt Heath, Taylor Adams taking your calls on Oh, eight 1273 01:05:53,173 --> 01:05:54,333 Speaker 1: hundred and eighty ten eighty. 1274 01:05:54,373 --> 01:05:57,493 Speaker 8: It's Matt Heath and Taylor Adams Afternoons. 1275 01:05:56,973 --> 01:05:59,773 Speaker 4: News Talk sav for a good afternoons You're eighteen to three? 1276 01:05:59,853 --> 01:06:03,653 Speaker 4: Is lying ever okay? Graham Norton says, yep, sometimes line 1277 01:06:03,693 --> 01:06:05,853 Speaker 4: is okay to protect others feelings. 1278 01:06:05,893 --> 01:06:08,093 Speaker 2: Matt read The business scenario says is Texic can we 1279 01:06:08,093 --> 01:06:10,533 Speaker 2: say from tall poppy syndrome? So when they tell you 1280 01:06:10,533 --> 01:06:12,773 Speaker 2: your business is a good idea is because they want 1281 01:06:12,813 --> 01:06:15,373 Speaker 2: to watch you crash and burn instead of soaring like 1282 01:06:15,413 --> 01:06:20,253 Speaker 2: an eagle. It's really really well put. The six says, 1283 01:06:20,253 --> 01:06:22,213 Speaker 2: I wonder if Graham Thorne's wife lied to him when 1284 01:06:22,213 --> 01:06:25,533 Speaker 2: he came home with a perm. Now, I think Graham Thorne, 1285 01:06:25,533 --> 01:06:29,693 Speaker 2: I'm supportive of Graham Thorne's moved toward perm. It was bold, 1286 01:06:29,853 --> 01:06:31,613 Speaker 2: it was bold, and I think it actually looked good. 1287 01:06:31,613 --> 01:06:34,853 Speaker 2: It was just in the world wasn't ready for men 1288 01:06:34,933 --> 01:06:35,893 Speaker 2: to have perms yet. 1289 01:06:36,013 --> 01:06:37,813 Speaker 3: No, it was too early. He was a trendsetter. 1290 01:06:37,973 --> 01:06:41,533 Speaker 2: But I do think that it looked good. So you 1291 01:06:41,573 --> 01:06:44,253 Speaker 2: could say to Graham Thorn, then this is the complexity 1292 01:06:44,293 --> 01:06:47,093 Speaker 2: of lying. You could say to Graham Thorne, your perm 1293 01:06:47,173 --> 01:06:50,733 Speaker 2: looks good, Graham Thorn. Yeah, but equally, if you're going 1294 01:06:50,813 --> 01:06:54,053 Speaker 2: to add information, you will be ridiculed and people will 1295 01:06:54,053 --> 01:06:56,333 Speaker 2: talk about this for generations. But it does actually look 1296 01:06:56,413 --> 01:06:56,773 Speaker 2: quite good. 1297 01:06:56,853 --> 01:07:00,533 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, and exactly what happens. Oh, one hundred and 1298 01:07:00,573 --> 01:07:02,493 Speaker 4: eighty ten eighty is the number to call. Nine two 1299 01:07:02,613 --> 01:07:06,053 Speaker 4: ninety two is the text number. This is an interesting one. 1300 01:07:06,373 --> 01:07:06,733 Speaker 2: Guys. 1301 01:07:06,973 --> 01:07:10,813 Speaker 4: What about responding when someone asked how you're doing? Most 1302 01:07:10,853 --> 01:07:14,613 Speaker 4: of us say I'm fine. I doubt many people would 1303 01:07:14,653 --> 01:07:17,893 Speaker 4: be comfortable enough to actually tell the truth to avoid 1304 01:07:17,973 --> 01:07:20,253 Speaker 4: starting a deep or uncomfortable conversation. 1305 01:07:20,333 --> 01:07:21,133 Speaker 3: In the casual setting. 1306 01:07:21,293 --> 01:07:24,093 Speaker 2: I was listening to this podcast with Matthew McConaughey the 1307 01:07:24,133 --> 01:07:26,053 Speaker 2: other day. It was a great podcast, but he was 1308 01:07:26,093 --> 01:07:31,653 Speaker 2: saying that George Bush the president of the United States. 1309 01:07:32,173 --> 01:07:34,853 Speaker 2: I think it was George Bush Senior. No, I'm not 1310 01:07:34,893 --> 01:07:37,373 Speaker 2: sure which George Bush. I can't remember. He used to 1311 01:07:37,373 --> 01:07:39,333 Speaker 2: always when you asked him how his day was, he'd 1312 01:07:39,333 --> 01:07:41,533 Speaker 2: give you a rating out of ten, right, so it 1313 01:07:41,653 --> 01:07:44,653 Speaker 2: be like eight point eight or seven point two. 1314 01:07:44,853 --> 01:07:46,933 Speaker 4: I love that. That is a great way to do it, 1315 01:07:47,133 --> 01:07:49,133 Speaker 4: because it is an awkward one. I mean, given a 1316 01:07:49,213 --> 01:07:50,693 Speaker 4: rating out of ten is a nice way to do it. 1317 01:07:50,733 --> 01:07:52,893 Speaker 4: But if you are not feeling that great, you're coming 1318 01:07:52,933 --> 01:07:54,853 Speaker 4: to work and people say get a how you going 1319 01:07:54,973 --> 01:07:58,013 Speaker 4: and say I'm terrible, and at that point you can 1320 01:07:58,173 --> 01:08:01,493 Speaker 4: see their energy start to drop off and think, oh no, 1321 01:08:01,493 --> 01:08:03,933 Speaker 4: now I've got to listen to either because what does 1322 01:08:03,973 --> 01:08:06,373 Speaker 4: that person do in that scenario? They say why you're terrible? 1323 01:08:06,653 --> 01:08:08,533 Speaker 2: And then you've got to be honest and say what's 1324 01:08:08,573 --> 01:08:10,693 Speaker 2: going on in your life? Yeah, because I don't think 1325 01:08:10,693 --> 01:08:12,533 Speaker 2: it's actually lying. If someone says how are you and 1326 01:08:12,573 --> 01:08:15,453 Speaker 2: you say I'm fine, you're not really lying. You're just 1327 01:08:15,453 --> 01:08:20,492 Speaker 2: just engaged in a back and forth. Because you're not 1328 01:08:20,532 --> 01:08:23,773 Speaker 2: ready to unload. My good friend Jason Hoyt, who's a 1329 01:08:23,813 --> 01:08:26,572 Speaker 2: huge cricket fan, he will often give how he's feeling 1330 01:08:26,692 --> 01:08:34,732 Speaker 2: as a score. He'll say, I'm three for seventeen. I'm 1331 01:08:34,772 --> 01:08:37,213 Speaker 2: three down seventeen runs on the board. I love that, 1332 01:08:37,452 --> 01:08:39,732 Speaker 2: but it's quite an accurate thanks. If you go I'm 1333 01:08:39,853 --> 01:08:44,013 Speaker 2: nine down for ninety, you go, oh jeez, sorry mate. 1334 01:08:45,093 --> 01:08:46,612 Speaker 3: That is a very nice way to do it. 1335 01:08:46,853 --> 01:08:49,053 Speaker 2: The sixer says, depends on the situation. If something can 1336 01:08:49,093 --> 01:08:52,213 Speaker 2: be changed at a low tell them the truth, like 1337 01:08:52,213 --> 01:08:54,293 Speaker 2: a haircut. If it can't be changed, why make people 1338 01:08:54,572 --> 01:09:00,652 Speaker 2: life miserable like the house? Just find something nice to say. Okay, 1339 01:09:01,652 --> 01:09:06,772 Speaker 2: I've got a really edge case scenario. Here, Shall I 1340 01:09:06,853 --> 01:09:12,012 Speaker 2: share it now? Or after the break? Got time? Okay? Okay, yeah, 1341 01:09:12,093 --> 01:09:13,932 Speaker 2: I got time? Yeap, share it now? Share it now. 1342 01:09:13,973 --> 01:09:18,133 Speaker 2: So you've got Ann Frank in the attic, and the 1343 01:09:19,013 --> 01:09:23,173 Speaker 2: and the Nazis are knocking on the door, and you 1344 01:09:23,253 --> 01:09:25,892 Speaker 2: come down and the answer the door and they say 1345 01:09:27,093 --> 01:09:32,213 Speaker 2: as as Anne Frank in the attic. Yep. Under those circumstances, 1346 01:09:32,213 --> 01:09:34,652 Speaker 2: if you you know, it would be pretty pretty hard 1347 01:09:34,652 --> 01:09:36,732 Speaker 2: to justify saying yes, she's up there, go and get it. 1348 01:09:36,933 --> 01:09:40,452 Speaker 4: Yeah, I thought, yeah, yeah, absolutely, she would say, nope, 1349 01:09:40,532 --> 01:09:41,932 Speaker 4: nobody here, just us. 1350 01:09:42,372 --> 01:09:42,532 Speaker 12: But. 1351 01:09:44,053 --> 01:09:45,732 Speaker 2: Yeah, this person's out for a duck today. 1352 01:09:47,372 --> 01:09:51,133 Speaker 4: Sorry to hear about that made hope things get better? Right? 1353 01:09:50,093 --> 01:09:53,452 Speaker 4: N is the number to call love to hear your thoughts. 1354 01:09:53,732 --> 01:09:56,852 Speaker 4: Is lying ever okay? A little white lie? Graham Norton, 1355 01:09:56,893 --> 01:10:00,652 Speaker 4: the Great Graham Norton says, absolutely, brutal honesty can be 1356 01:10:00,812 --> 01:10:02,213 Speaker 4: very cruel. But what do you say. 1357 01:10:02,452 --> 01:10:05,293 Speaker 2: My wife has just lied to me about address. She 1358 01:10:05,372 --> 01:10:09,492 Speaker 2: said it was old. I found the receipt. That so 1359 01:10:09,652 --> 01:10:11,052 Speaker 2: then you never trust her again. 1360 01:10:11,213 --> 01:10:12,412 Speaker 3: That's a snowball effect. 1361 01:10:12,692 --> 01:10:14,532 Speaker 2: Yeah, so she should have just said, yes, I've bought 1362 01:10:14,532 --> 01:10:15,173 Speaker 2: a new dress. 1363 01:10:15,213 --> 01:10:17,612 Speaker 3: That would have saved a lot of problems. Yeah, because 1364 01:10:17,612 --> 01:10:19,092 Speaker 3: now there's problems in that household. 1365 01:10:19,213 --> 01:10:23,372 Speaker 2: That's see what webs we weave when first we practice 1366 01:10:23,372 --> 01:10:26,213 Speaker 2: to to see the issues. 1367 01:10:25,853 --> 01:10:28,333 Speaker 1: That affect you. And a bit of fun along the way. 1368 01:10:28,572 --> 01:10:32,452 Speaker 1: Matt Heath and Tyler Adams Afternoons News TALKSB. 1369 01:10:33,013 --> 01:10:33,812 Speaker 3: News Talks B. 1370 01:10:33,933 --> 01:10:36,812 Speaker 4: We're talking about white lies? Is line ever okay? It 1371 01:10:36,812 --> 01:10:39,852 Speaker 4: was an interview that Graham Norton did and he said 1372 01:10:40,253 --> 01:10:44,492 Speaker 4: that line is okay if it protects other people. It can, 1373 01:10:44,652 --> 01:10:48,532 Speaker 4: he says, brutal honesty cause quite quite a lot of cruelty. 1374 01:10:48,973 --> 01:10:54,532 Speaker 2: But there's incredible unforeseen circumstances, and there's obviously levels morally 1375 01:10:54,572 --> 01:10:58,333 Speaker 2: of lying. Right. The worst lies are self aggrandizing lies, 1376 01:10:58,372 --> 01:11:00,093 Speaker 2: I had guess, yeah, were ones that are meant to 1377 01:11:00,173 --> 01:11:03,692 Speaker 2: hurt people. So if you walk around claiming, you know, 1378 01:11:03,853 --> 01:11:08,492 Speaker 2: exaggerating what you earn, or claiming connections with people that 1379 01:11:08,532 --> 01:11:10,612 Speaker 2: you don't have, you know, I know that that, dude. 1380 01:11:11,013 --> 01:11:17,612 Speaker 2: Those ones are embarrassing or lying about romantic activities, you know, 1381 01:11:17,652 --> 01:11:22,572 Speaker 2: even like harmless lies as well, though they I just 1382 01:11:22,612 --> 01:11:25,092 Speaker 2: believe that generally speaking, I can see exactly what Graham 1383 01:11:25,133 --> 01:11:29,053 Speaker 2: Norton's saying here that you know, if and it's the 1384 01:11:29,053 --> 01:11:32,412 Speaker 2: case you go before of the house, if you someone 1385 01:11:32,492 --> 01:11:34,492 Speaker 2: spent a lot and they can't change yet and they 1386 01:11:34,532 --> 01:11:37,333 Speaker 2: ask your opinion, then then it's pretty harsh to tell 1387 01:11:37,372 --> 01:11:40,213 Speaker 2: them it, right, And so there's different edge cases, right, 1388 01:11:40,293 --> 01:11:44,852 Speaker 2: absolutely in the n Frank example I gave before, but 1389 01:11:44,893 --> 01:11:48,772 Speaker 2: I think as an absolute general rule, you should do 1390 01:11:48,933 --> 01:11:53,892 Speaker 2: everything you can to not lie. I tried not to lie. 1391 01:11:55,612 --> 01:11:57,452 Speaker 2: I made a plan not to lie, and not long 1392 01:11:57,492 --> 01:12:00,772 Speaker 2: afterwards I was cast on the New Zealand television show 1393 01:12:01,013 --> 01:12:03,612 Speaker 2: Traders ends it well, that's awkward. And then and then 1394 01:12:03,652 --> 01:12:06,692 Speaker 2: I was made a trader, which is one of the murderers, 1395 01:12:07,333 --> 01:12:10,772 Speaker 2: and so I in the conclave choosing who to murder 1396 01:12:10,812 --> 01:12:12,532 Speaker 2: on this reality TV show. I'm not sure if you've 1397 01:12:12,572 --> 01:12:16,252 Speaker 2: seen it, but I'd made a decision just for an experiment. 1398 01:12:16,293 --> 01:12:17,932 Speaker 2: I was riding my book to see if I could 1399 01:12:17,973 --> 01:12:21,052 Speaker 2: not lie. And so I think I lasted six days 1400 01:12:21,093 --> 01:12:22,812 Speaker 2: on the show and I didn't tell any lies. 1401 01:12:22,973 --> 01:12:23,612 Speaker 3: That's pretty good. 1402 01:12:23,692 --> 01:12:28,932 Speaker 2: I just kept changing subject constantly. And then and then 1403 01:12:29,013 --> 01:12:33,973 Speaker 2: one day someone just said, Matt's Matt just keeps absolutely 1404 01:12:34,053 --> 01:12:36,133 Speaker 2: changing the subject all the time when I talk about 1405 01:12:36,133 --> 01:12:38,892 Speaker 2: who's one of the traders and who's murdering people on 1406 01:12:38,933 --> 01:12:39,333 Speaker 2: the show. 1407 01:12:39,412 --> 01:12:41,452 Speaker 3: That is a tough stance to take in that show, mate, 1408 01:12:41,452 --> 01:12:42,972 Speaker 3: But well done today is pretty good. 1409 01:12:43,093 --> 01:12:45,492 Speaker 2: Is that dishonesty if it's in the rules of a game, 1410 01:12:45,933 --> 01:12:48,652 Speaker 2: so it not really is it? So you're not being 1411 01:12:48,652 --> 01:12:51,133 Speaker 2: dishonest in a game of poker if you're bluffing. No, 1412 01:12:51,333 --> 01:12:53,053 Speaker 2: So I probably shouldn't have taken it that far. But 1413 01:12:53,933 --> 01:12:56,492 Speaker 2: on that morning when I decided to start lying and 1414 01:12:56,772 --> 01:13:00,612 Speaker 2: not lots stopped lying completely seriously, this case that everyone 1415 01:13:00,652 --> 01:13:05,012 Speaker 2: is putting through right through, over and again. Now, my partner, Tracy, 1416 01:13:05,173 --> 01:13:07,012 Speaker 2: she put on this thing. It was like five past 1417 01:13:07,053 --> 01:13:08,932 Speaker 2: six in the morning on the day that I decided 1418 01:13:08,973 --> 01:13:10,612 Speaker 2: to see how long it could go without telling any 1419 01:13:10,612 --> 01:13:13,173 Speaker 2: white lives on your lives, And she said, do you 1420 01:13:13,293 --> 01:13:15,532 Speaker 2: like this? And she had this new sort of brown 1421 01:13:16,333 --> 01:13:20,333 Speaker 2: singlet and shorts outfit. Yep, nice And I was immediately 1422 01:13:20,372 --> 01:13:23,492 Speaker 2: tested at that right the like basically woke up and 1423 01:13:23,492 --> 01:13:25,772 Speaker 2: then was put under the microscope and tested. 1424 01:13:25,812 --> 01:13:26,572 Speaker 3: And how did they go? 1425 01:13:28,452 --> 01:13:33,852 Speaker 2: What happened was I didn't I sort of didn't really 1426 01:13:33,853 --> 01:13:35,972 Speaker 2: say anything, but then I wrote about it in my book. 1427 01:13:36,492 --> 01:13:38,452 Speaker 2: I wrote about in my book, and then she when 1428 01:13:38,492 --> 01:13:40,093 Speaker 2: she was reading my books, I merely texted, was that 1429 01:13:40,133 --> 01:13:42,412 Speaker 2: brown thing? I knew you didn't like it? So good? 1430 01:13:43,133 --> 01:13:44,852 Speaker 3: Eight hundred and eighty to eighties and number to call 1431 01:13:44,893 --> 01:13:45,173 Speaker 3: get a. 1432 01:13:45,213 --> 01:13:48,293 Speaker 2: Trevor, Hey, boys, how are you very good? 1433 01:13:48,333 --> 01:13:49,293 Speaker 3: What do you reckon about lying? 1434 01:13:50,293 --> 01:13:50,612 Speaker 2: Well? 1435 01:13:50,692 --> 01:13:54,133 Speaker 20: I mean sometimes you can lie of use absolute stupidity 1436 01:13:54,532 --> 01:13:58,492 Speaker 20: and it makes foolsier. I always remember the Democrats and 1437 01:13:58,612 --> 01:14:02,053 Speaker 20: CNN kept telling us that Joe Biden was healthy and 1438 01:14:02,093 --> 01:14:05,413 Speaker 20: didn't have any form of adventure. I mean, wasn't that ridiculous? 1439 01:14:05,452 --> 01:14:07,093 Speaker 20: Then lying about that is. 1440 01:14:07,173 --> 01:14:09,532 Speaker 2: That has made them look hearable. 1441 01:14:09,093 --> 01:14:13,572 Speaker 20: Now absolutely, yeah, well I was saying it was very obvious, 1442 01:14:13,612 --> 01:14:16,652 Speaker 20: and but you're right. Even now, it's just an example. 1443 01:14:16,812 --> 01:14:20,892 Speaker 20: You know, sometimes lying just do it can come to 1444 01:14:20,973 --> 01:14:24,133 Speaker 20: a point of just being stupidity. And I think that's 1445 01:14:24,173 --> 01:14:26,292 Speaker 20: a classic example for the whole world. 1446 01:14:26,053 --> 01:14:28,972 Speaker 2: Of you're so right, triv because everyone could see as well. 1447 01:14:28,973 --> 01:14:31,213 Speaker 2: What was so strange about that lie is people could 1448 01:14:31,293 --> 01:14:33,213 Speaker 2: see what was going on and they were saying, no, 1449 01:14:33,532 --> 01:14:37,253 Speaker 2: he's sharp as attack and were every day that they 1450 01:14:37,293 --> 01:14:39,373 Speaker 2: actually let him out to talk to anyone, and they 1451 01:14:39,053 --> 01:14:41,133 Speaker 2: are hiding him away, and every time he was out 1452 01:14:41,293 --> 01:14:42,812 Speaker 2: in front of her eyes, we could see that what 1453 01:14:42,853 --> 01:14:46,173 Speaker 2: they were saying is not true. And now you know, 1454 01:14:46,293 --> 01:14:48,173 Speaker 2: and it came to a head in that debate We're 1455 01:14:48,213 --> 01:14:51,612 Speaker 2: afterwards they were going to and they rumbled him for 1456 01:14:51,812 --> 01:14:56,252 Speaker 2: for Karmala. Yeah, but you go Triva. 1457 01:14:56,093 --> 01:14:58,812 Speaker 20: Sorry, oh yeah, And of course what now what everything 1458 01:14:58,933 --> 01:15:02,053 Speaker 20: is even worse now. Kamala kept on telling us he's 1459 01:15:02,053 --> 01:15:04,973 Speaker 20: a healthier he's but he's healthy, you know, no, no 1460 01:15:05,053 --> 01:15:07,372 Speaker 20: early dementia that. But now she's written a book. 1461 01:15:09,213 --> 01:15:12,853 Speaker 2: It's all out now and that that destroys your credibility 1462 01:15:13,133 --> 01:15:20,173 Speaker 2: for forever. Whereas if they had actually said, look, Joe Biden, 1463 01:15:20,253 --> 01:15:23,412 Speaker 2: he's not fit to be rolling because at that point, 1464 01:15:23,412 --> 01:15:25,173 Speaker 2: the reason why they weren't doing that wasn't it because 1465 01:15:25,173 --> 01:15:26,933 Speaker 2: they thought he had a better chance to win because of, 1466 01:15:27,013 --> 01:15:29,852 Speaker 2: you know, the support he had, and they didn't think 1467 01:15:29,853 --> 01:15:32,412 Speaker 2: Carmela was a good candidate. But also they wondered what 1468 01:15:32,452 --> 01:15:34,892 Speaker 2: would happen he's the president of the United States to 1469 01:15:34,933 --> 01:15:36,812 Speaker 2: say that that he was not ready, but he didn't 1470 01:15:36,853 --> 01:15:39,492 Speaker 2: seem like he could even before that, when he was 1471 01:15:39,612 --> 01:15:42,732 Speaker 2: running for the race he won. He didn't seem like 1472 01:15:42,772 --> 01:15:44,732 Speaker 2: he was up to it. But if they just ripped 1473 01:15:44,732 --> 01:15:47,333 Speaker 2: the band aid off and said, like, he's not good, 1474 01:15:47,372 --> 01:15:48,933 Speaker 2: we need we need to do something about this, and 1475 01:15:48,933 --> 01:15:50,493 Speaker 2: they would have had so much more credibility. 1476 01:15:50,532 --> 01:15:50,692 Speaker 12: Now. 1477 01:15:51,412 --> 01:15:53,932 Speaker 20: Yeah, absolutely, of course, the most discussing about the whole 1478 01:15:53,933 --> 01:15:55,253 Speaker 20: thing is, you know, if people have a go up 1479 01:15:55,293 --> 01:15:58,213 Speaker 20: frump and his wife, you know how but how bare 1480 01:15:58,333 --> 01:16:01,452 Speaker 20: was Jill Biden, the wife of Joe Biden, letting him 1481 01:16:02,412 --> 01:16:03,412 Speaker 20: carry on with that job? 1482 01:16:03,812 --> 01:16:09,133 Speaker 2: Well she must have done apparently. Yeah, yeah, hey, thank 1483 01:16:09,173 --> 01:16:09,852 Speaker 2: you so much for your. 1484 01:16:09,732 --> 01:16:12,372 Speaker 4: Call, Trevor, and I think, just on the Joe Biden thing, 1485 01:16:12,412 --> 01:16:14,933 Speaker 4: that is an example of quade, an egregious lie. But 1486 01:16:15,053 --> 01:16:18,053 Speaker 4: they did that to protect the Democratic Party right or 1487 01:16:18,093 --> 01:16:22,293 Speaker 4: their hopes, rather than any idea of protecting Joe Biden's feelings. 1488 01:16:23,532 --> 01:16:25,452 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, do you think it was protecting his feelings 1489 01:16:25,532 --> 01:16:28,412 Speaker 2: or just trying to protect the position of power, right exactly? 1490 01:16:28,612 --> 01:16:32,333 Speaker 3: That's why that is an egregious, very very bad lie. 1491 01:16:32,452 --> 01:16:34,412 Speaker 4: But I'm just trying to think of this scenario. It 1492 01:16:34,412 --> 01:16:35,772 Speaker 4: would be a good option. 1493 01:16:35,853 --> 01:16:37,293 Speaker 2: So Joe Rogan comes up and goes, do you think 1494 01:16:37,293 --> 01:16:41,692 Speaker 2: I'm cognitively at my peak? No joke, no joke. It's 1495 01:16:41,692 --> 01:16:44,172 Speaker 2: all over working many years ago in a big hospital, 1496 01:16:44,173 --> 01:16:45,932 Speaker 2: says this text, and my boss asked me for an 1497 01:16:45,973 --> 01:16:48,532 Speaker 2: opinion on what she was wearing. Caught off guard was 1498 01:16:48,572 --> 01:16:50,452 Speaker 2: being on a straight up. As I was giving it. 1499 01:16:51,973 --> 01:16:54,772 Speaker 2: Six supervisors came around the corner. They complained I was 1500 01:16:54,812 --> 01:16:57,333 Speaker 2: straight up and said she asked me from my opinion. 1501 01:16:57,412 --> 01:16:59,293 Speaker 2: She said she had asked me for. 1502 01:16:59,492 --> 01:17:05,652 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, okay, And this one here, guys, Sorry, as. 1503 01:17:05,612 --> 01:17:07,572 Speaker 2: Mister Trump healthy in the head, he lies all the time. 1504 01:17:08,612 --> 01:17:12,333 Speaker 2: Least Joe was asleep, says Mary. I don't know who's 1505 01:17:12,372 --> 01:17:16,052 Speaker 2: vetter in that scenario. This is a good one here, Hi, guys, 1506 01:17:17,093 --> 01:17:19,293 Speaker 2: let's call it a small fib not a lie. I 1507 01:17:19,333 --> 01:17:21,412 Speaker 2: bought a corvette without telling my wife. She asked me 1508 01:17:21,452 --> 01:17:24,652 Speaker 2: how much she got told him out. I knew I 1509 01:17:24,732 --> 01:17:26,852 Speaker 2: could get away with it. May not have been the 1510 01:17:26,853 --> 01:17:29,932 Speaker 2: full truth. See again, I don't know a lie that's 1511 01:17:29,933 --> 01:17:32,572 Speaker 2: on the line. But then if she finds out, then 1512 01:17:32,812 --> 01:17:34,973 Speaker 2: she'll never trust you again. Then when you're out at 1513 01:17:35,053 --> 01:17:39,572 Speaker 2: the pub and you say i'm you know, when you 1514 01:17:40,372 --> 01:17:42,892 Speaker 2: whatever you say, you'll say you're working late, she thinks 1515 01:17:42,893 --> 01:17:45,692 Speaker 2: you're at the pub. You know, Once your credibility has 1516 01:17:45,732 --> 01:17:47,732 Speaker 2: been destroyed, then you can never get it back. It's 1517 01:17:47,732 --> 01:17:49,293 Speaker 2: a risky thing. That is a risky thing. 1518 01:17:49,333 --> 01:17:52,293 Speaker 4: And if she divorces, yes, she's taking that corvette as well. 1519 01:17:52,372 --> 01:17:54,532 Speaker 3: Right, good discussion, Thank you very much. 1520 01:17:54,853 --> 01:17:58,253 Speaker 4: Coming up after three o'clock, we're going to stick with 1521 01:17:58,532 --> 01:18:00,973 Speaker 4: talking about money or lack of it. It can make 1522 01:18:01,053 --> 01:18:03,892 Speaker 4: or break a relationship. But an article in the Herald 1523 01:18:04,333 --> 01:18:07,492 Speaker 4: from a man asking for advice he's disciplined with money, 1524 01:18:07,532 --> 01:18:09,253 Speaker 4: and his guild friend isn't. 1525 01:18:09,812 --> 01:18:10,652 Speaker 3: Can it ever work? 1526 01:18:10,692 --> 01:18:14,372 Speaker 4: If someone's a massive stally and someone just likes to 1527 01:18:14,372 --> 01:18:16,333 Speaker 4: spend the cash.

I tell 1531 01:18:22,692 --> 01:18:24,932 Speaker 2: him I like listening to news talks. He'd be talked back. 1532 01:18:25,093 --> 01:18:26,213 Speaker 3: That's a good lie, keeping that up. 1533 01:18:26,293 --> 01:18:28,412 Speaker 2: You keep telling people. Allow that one. 1534 01:18:30,893 --> 01:18:34,213 Speaker 1: Your new home are insateful and entertaining talk. 1535 01:18:34,452 --> 01:18:37,253 Speaker 8: It's Mattie and Taylor Adams. 1536 01:18:36,692 --> 01:18:42,052 Speaker 4: Afternoons on News Talk Savvy Afternoon. Welcome back into the show. 1537 01:18:42,093 --> 01:18:44,572 Speaker 4: It is six pass three, really good to have your company. 1538 01:18:44,692 --> 01:18:47,532 Speaker 4: As always, is going to be a great discussion. Some money, 1539 01:18:47,893 --> 01:18:50,092 Speaker 4: as many of us know, as one of the biggest 1540 01:18:50,093 --> 01:18:54,052 Speaker 4: stresses in a relationship, especially when your financial habits couldn't 1541 01:18:54,053 --> 01:18:56,492 Speaker 4: be more different. An article in the Herald with an 1542 01:18:56,572 --> 01:18:59,852 Speaker 4: unknamed man. He's asking for advice. He says he's very 1543 01:18:59,893 --> 01:19:03,012 Speaker 4: disciplined with his money, but his new girlfriend isn't. Plus 1544 01:19:03,093 --> 01:19:05,932 Speaker 4: he's tied to some parents debt. But he's asking whether 1545 01:19:05,973 --> 01:19:07,732 Speaker 4: this relationship can ever. 1546 01:19:08,612 --> 01:19:12,533 Speaker 2: It's a biggie, So can you be in a relationship 1547 01:19:12,532 --> 01:19:16,612 Speaker 2: with someone with different money values? I guess financial values 1548 01:19:17,612 --> 01:19:20,612 Speaker 2: and you know one hundred and eighty ten eighty have 1549 01:19:20,732 --> 01:19:24,173 Speaker 2: you had to leave a relationship because of the money 1550 01:19:24,173 --> 01:19:26,452 Speaker 2: habits of the other other side, Because I guess part 1551 01:19:26,452 --> 01:19:30,213 Speaker 2: of a relationship, belong to a relationship is forging both 1552 01:19:30,293 --> 01:19:34,652 Speaker 2: romantic and a business partnership, definitely to try and fight 1553 01:19:34,692 --> 01:19:37,772 Speaker 2: off the rest of the world. Yep. And you know, 1554 01:19:38,253 --> 01:19:40,532 Speaker 2: you certainly notice when you get into a relationship with 1555 01:19:40,572 --> 01:19:43,533 Speaker 2: two incomes coming in that things get a lot easier. Yeah, 1556 01:19:44,372 --> 01:19:47,213 Speaker 2: And so that's all very well in this one party 1557 01:19:47,492 --> 01:19:55,812 Speaker 2: is spending crazily. But equally I could say that, you know, 1558 01:19:55,853 --> 01:19:58,452 Speaker 2: if you have two people that are really really stilly 1559 01:19:59,133 --> 01:20:04,053 Speaker 2: and tight, then nothing would ever happen, right, So you 1560 01:20:04,093 --> 01:20:06,613 Speaker 2: would both go no to everything, and you have no experiences, 1561 01:20:06,612 --> 01:20:08,253 Speaker 2: and you die with a whole lot of money in the bank. 1562 01:20:08,772 --> 01:20:09,812 Speaker 3: So there's a balance there. 1563 01:20:09,853 --> 01:20:12,173 Speaker 2: So you need someone that opens the purse strings, right, 1564 01:20:12,452 --> 01:20:16,093 Speaker 2: So couldn't it be maybe you need two different types 1565 01:20:16,133 --> 01:20:18,612 Speaker 2: of people in a relationship. You need one person that's 1566 01:20:18,853 --> 01:20:23,412 Speaker 2: tying the tying down the finances and the other person 1567 01:20:23,452 --> 01:20:25,572 Speaker 2: that's always trying to hassle you and book holidays and such. 1568 01:20:25,973 --> 01:20:28,652 Speaker 4: It's more fun being that second person. Clearly, I don't know, 1569 01:20:28,692 --> 01:20:30,452 Speaker 4: but you know I'm thinking about maybe. 1570 01:20:30,812 --> 01:20:32,253 Speaker 2: I know, if you like me and you're in a 1571 01:20:32,293 --> 01:20:34,812 Speaker 2: relationship where we both just spray money around like a 1572 01:20:34,812 --> 01:20:38,253 Speaker 2: fire hose, then part of you just feels like you're 1573 01:20:38,293 --> 01:20:40,293 Speaker 2: emptying your soul into the world. At the same time, 1574 01:20:40,893 --> 01:20:45,172 Speaker 2: just spending money doesn't always feel good. Yeah, sometimes making 1575 01:20:45,333 --> 01:20:49,453 Speaker 2: prudent financial decisions actually is the enjoyable part of life. 1576 01:20:49,812 --> 01:20:51,852 Speaker 4: I think, and this is just my opinion, of course, 1577 01:20:51,893 --> 01:20:53,612 Speaker 4: but when you get together with someone, it was always 1578 01:20:53,652 --> 01:20:58,133 Speaker 4: important for me, very early in the relationship to talk 1579 01:20:58,173 --> 01:21:02,052 Speaker 4: about this's going to several punishing that it is punishing 1580 01:21:02,213 --> 01:21:04,173 Speaker 4: to talk about your financial goals. Where do you see 1581 01:21:04,173 --> 01:21:09,053 Speaker 4: yourself financially in five, ten, fifteen years. That covers They 1582 01:21:09,093 --> 01:21:11,492 Speaker 4: had the conversation with me for my partner now, and 1583 01:21:11,812 --> 01:21:14,333 Speaker 4: it's well known that I am. I'm a bit stingy 1584 01:21:14,333 --> 01:21:16,932 Speaker 4: with my money. It's a massive savor and the reason 1585 01:21:16,973 --> 01:21:19,253 Speaker 4: I am is because I was I was very stupid 1586 01:21:19,253 --> 01:21:21,133 Speaker 4: with money in my younger days. So that left me 1587 01:21:21,133 --> 01:21:22,732 Speaker 4: with a bit of trauma now that I really I 1588 01:21:22,893 --> 01:21:25,612 Speaker 4: hate spending money, right whereas may I wouldn't say she's 1589 01:21:25,652 --> 01:21:26,372 Speaker 4: a massive spender. 1590 01:21:26,492 --> 01:21:28,932 Speaker 2: As a result, you tried to shift house yourself and 1591 01:21:29,213 --> 01:21:31,692 Speaker 2: for the second time, crash the truck that you rented 1592 01:21:31,772 --> 01:21:32,652 Speaker 2: into the side of your house. 1593 01:21:32,732 --> 01:21:32,932 Speaker 17: Yeah. 1594 01:21:33,013 --> 01:21:34,612 Speaker 3: Yeah, so that's going to cost me a lot more 1595 01:21:34,612 --> 01:21:35,492 Speaker 3: money than I was ever going. 1596 01:21:35,452 --> 01:21:38,372 Speaker 2: To say exactly. Sometimes you need to be not just 1597 01:21:38,492 --> 01:21:42,492 Speaker 2: stoly but sensible. Yeah. And you should know by previous 1598 01:21:42,572 --> 01:21:47,892 Speaker 2: experience that you caused damage when you hire moving trucks, 1599 01:21:48,452 --> 01:21:51,452 Speaker 2: and so whilst it may appear that you're saving money 1600 01:21:51,492 --> 01:21:53,612 Speaker 2: by moving yourself, you're actually going to spend a lot 1601 01:21:53,612 --> 01:21:55,732 Speaker 2: more when you once again crashed the truck into the 1602 01:21:55,732 --> 01:21:57,372 Speaker 2: side of the same house and the exact same spot 1603 01:21:57,412 --> 01:21:58,532 Speaker 2: you crashed at last time. Yeah. 1604 01:21:58,612 --> 01:22:00,972 Speaker 3: I never foresaw that I was going to almost take 1605 01:22:00,973 --> 01:22:01,932 Speaker 3: out a corner of the house. 1606 01:22:01,973 --> 01:22:02,133 Speaker 10: You know. 1607 01:22:02,133 --> 01:22:03,812 Speaker 4: I thought I might clip it again and it will 1608 01:22:03,812 --> 01:22:06,093 Speaker 4: be all right. But you're quite right, it's ended up 1609 01:22:06,133 --> 01:22:08,333 Speaker 4: costing me a lot more by being stingy in that scenario. 1610 01:22:08,692 --> 01:22:08,852 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1611 01:22:08,933 --> 01:22:10,412 Speaker 4: May have let me know about it, because she was 1612 01:22:10,412 --> 01:22:12,692 Speaker 4: the one that said, just high spend a bit of money, 1613 01:22:12,772 --> 01:22:16,213 Speaker 4: do it right, get some professional movers in. And I 1614 01:22:16,293 --> 01:22:18,772 Speaker 4: look back at my stoly self and say, shame on you, 1615 01:22:18,853 --> 01:22:22,133 Speaker 4: Tyler in that scenario.

Yeah, so I 1854 01:33:34,532 --> 01:33:37,173 Speaker 23: don't really care. And every now and then something, but 1855 01:33:37,253 --> 01:33:39,812 Speaker 23: if it ever got to a point where it was 1856 01:33:39,812 --> 01:33:44,053 Speaker 23: the expense of our family well being. Yeah, and then 1857 01:33:44,133 --> 01:33:48,372 Speaker 23: that's worth the conversations. But we're very we're entirely transparent, 1858 01:33:48,412 --> 01:33:50,132 Speaker 23: and it all goes into one bank account. 1859 01:33:50,173 --> 01:33:52,852 Speaker 2: And you can't put a value on time spent bringing 1860 01:33:52,933 --> 01:33:56,253 Speaker 2: up the kids either can. I mean, they've be really 1861 01:33:56,293 --> 01:34:00,772 Speaker 2: hard to get this cold hard value of it, and so. 1862 01:34:01,053 --> 01:34:03,532 Speaker 23: You can't really even if you choose not to have children, 1863 01:34:03,572 --> 01:34:06,973 Speaker 23: if you're that double income, no kid's household, if he 1864 01:34:07,093 --> 01:34:11,172 Speaker 23: earns one hundred grand new owned sixty grand, in our opinion, 1865 01:34:11,652 --> 01:34:13,333 Speaker 23: you're still one life, one root. 1866 01:34:13,532 --> 01:34:15,093 Speaker 2: I think, I think absolutely right. I think you've got 1867 01:34:16,133 --> 01:34:17,972 Speaker 2: I think you've got to look at it as a unit. 1868 01:34:18,093 --> 01:34:21,333 Speaker 2: So this is how much we bring together as a unit. 1869 01:34:22,133 --> 01:34:24,732 Speaker 23: Unity. We're choosing to live our life as a unit. 1870 01:34:25,213 --> 01:34:26,173 Speaker 2: Otherwise what's the point? 1871 01:34:26,412 --> 01:34:29,732 Speaker 3: Yeah, well he's here's my rationale, Daniel. 1872 01:34:29,893 --> 01:34:33,372 Speaker 4: So I mean, maybe knows how much I earn and 1873 01:34:33,412 --> 01:34:35,492 Speaker 4: how much money is coming in, but I keep the 1874 01:34:35,612 --> 01:34:38,213 Speaker 4: saving element of my own we account and she can 1875 01:34:38,253 --> 01:34:40,173 Speaker 4: have a look at it she wants, but my rationale 1876 01:34:40,213 --> 01:34:41,692 Speaker 4: for that, and I love it a bit. She's a 1877 01:34:41,692 --> 01:34:44,692 Speaker 4: better person than me, but she if she sees what 1878 01:34:44,853 --> 01:34:47,492 Speaker 4: is there in savings, then the suggestions start coming up 1879 01:34:47,532 --> 01:34:51,572 Speaker 4: about a holiday or another car or something that she 1880 01:34:51,652 --> 01:34:53,412 Speaker 4: really wants, and I love it a bit.

You don't have to explain it. 2111 01:46:18,053 --> 01:46:22,293 Speaker 9: You don't have to, or it could be a really 2112 01:46:22,372 --> 01:46:25,333 Speaker 9: really nice because Shamana brought out a really nice sea 2113 01:46:25,412 --> 01:46:28,293 Speaker 9: cast road right now, are real, I should say? So 2114 01:46:28,372 --> 01:46:30,333 Speaker 9: you might just want to see money on that without 2115 01:46:30,372 --> 01:46:36,253 Speaker 9: having to explain it.
