Hey, I've got a question for you. 34 00:01:40,813 --> 00:01:41,053 Speaker 4: Yep. 35 00:01:41,093 --> 00:01:43,133 Speaker 2: And this is something for people to think about across 36 00:01:43,173 --> 00:01:45,533 Speaker 2: the break with their families and such. This isn't what 37 00:01:45,533 --> 00:01:48,213 Speaker 2: we're talking about this hour, but it's just should Is 38 00:01:48,253 --> 00:01:51,413 Speaker 2: it rude to bring up politics? I was at a 39 00:01:51,653 --> 00:01:53,653 Speaker 2: thing in the weekend and someone came at me hard 40 00:01:53,693 --> 00:01:57,533 Speaker 2: with their politics, and it's just an assumption. So what 41 00:01:57,573 --> 00:02:00,333 Speaker 2: are you supposed to say when someone comes at you 42 00:02:00,493 --> 00:02:04,133 Speaker 2: with a big statement about the current state of a 43 00:02:04,213 --> 00:02:08,133 Speaker 2: political issue in the country. Are I know with your 44 00:02:08,133 --> 00:02:10,573 Speaker 2: mate so I get it, or people that you know, Yeah, 45 00:02:10,573 --> 00:02:13,813 Speaker 2: but just coming at a stranger hard with the opening lines? 46 00:02:14,613 --> 00:02:16,333 Speaker 2: I think I think it's no fun. 47 00:02:16,613 --> 00:02:18,292 Speaker 4: Oh it's the most awkward thing ever. 48 00:02:18,493 --> 00:02:20,333 Speaker 2: Yeah, because because you're supposed to just get into a 49 00:02:20,333 --> 00:02:23,373 Speaker 2: debate at that point, you know, blasting off at you 50 00:02:23,853 --> 00:02:28,253 Speaker 2: a bunch of things that are factually incorrect. You know, 51 00:02:29,173 --> 00:02:31,133 Speaker 2: at a barbecue is at the time where you're fact 52 00:02:31,173 --> 00:02:33,893 Speaker 2: checking people and coming back and forth, and you know, 53 00:02:34,013 --> 00:02:37,452 Speaker 2: isn't it a time for just stupid jokes and pleasantries. 54 00:02:37,532 --> 00:02:40,493 Speaker 3: Definitely keep barbicane, but keep politics out of the barbecue, 55 00:02:40,493 --> 00:02:42,893 Speaker 3: because that's the point. As soon as you bite back 56 00:02:43,053 --> 00:02:44,653 Speaker 3: and you want to have a bit of a debate 57 00:02:44,653 --> 00:02:46,172 Speaker 3: and maybe you push back on some of the things 58 00:02:46,213 --> 00:02:48,413 Speaker 3: that they're saying, you become the bad guy. All of 59 00:02:48,413 --> 00:02:50,692 Speaker 3: a sudden, it's on you. At this the other night 60 00:02:50,733 --> 00:02:53,053 Speaker 3: that you know, it was a gentle back and forward, 61 00:02:53,053 --> 00:02:56,213 Speaker 3: but then I was accused of being awkward and ruining. 62 00:02:55,972 --> 00:02:57,972 Speaker 4: The night, so hack in a minute, someone. 63 00:02:57,693 --> 00:02:59,853 Speaker 3: Came at me with all this political chat. I just, 64 00:02:59,972 --> 00:03:02,933 Speaker 3: you know, I just engaged, and I shouldn't have engaged. 65 00:03:02,933 --> 00:03:03,852 Speaker 4: And that's the point. Never. 66 00:03:03,893 --> 00:03:06,213 Speaker 2: I think some people are so entrenched in their bubble 67 00:03:06,252 --> 00:03:08,773 Speaker 2: that they think that everyone agrees with them. They've never 68 00:03:08,173 --> 00:03:11,412 Speaker 2: run and you know, whatever workplace they're at. They've never 69 00:03:11,493 --> 00:03:14,933 Speaker 2: run into anyone that has anything but an opposing opinion, 70 00:03:15,093 --> 00:03:18,613 Speaker 2: So it's like they're describing the weather. Yeah, but these 71 00:03:18,653 --> 00:03:19,333 Speaker 2: are truths. 72 00:03:19,493 --> 00:03:19,813 Speaker 4: Yeah. 73 00:03:20,053 --> 00:03:24,853 Speaker 2: Anyway, I think, I think, I think maybe, unless you 74 00:03:24,972 --> 00:03:28,413 Speaker 2: know the person is down for a political chat, probably 75 00:03:28,453 --> 00:03:30,053 Speaker 2: just talk about the bangers. 76 00:03:30,173 --> 00:03:32,133 Speaker 3: Yeah, Now that's a rule we can all live by 77 00:03:32,173 --> 00:03:35,333 Speaker 3: this summer. Right on to today's show after three o'clock. 78 00:03:35,413 --> 00:03:38,373 Speaker 3: Big news over the weekend that Netflix is set to 79 00:03:38,493 --> 00:03:41,653 Speaker 3: acquire Warner Brothers and HBO Max And a one hundred 80 00:03:41,653 --> 00:03:44,733 Speaker 3: and twenty five billion dollar deal that will reshape the 81 00:03:44,853 --> 00:03:48,373 Speaker 3: global streaming lank landscape. So it's got the potential to 82 00:03:48,453 --> 00:03:52,213 Speaker 3: impact on how and where key we see their favorite show. 83 00:03:52,573 --> 00:03:54,573 Speaker 4: That is a huge deal. Obviously, one hundred and twenty 84 00:03:54,573 --> 00:03:57,373 Speaker 4: five a billion New Zealand dollars is one of the 85 00:03:57,413 --> 00:03:58,813 Speaker 4: bigger deals we've seen in sometime. 86 00:03:59,293 --> 00:04:04,573 Speaker 2: Yeah, and Netflix is controversially head of programming has said 87 00:04:04,573 --> 00:04:06,853 Speaker 2: that people want to watch movies at home and not 88 00:04:07,013 --> 00:04:10,293 Speaker 2: at the movie theater. And of course Warner Brothers is 89 00:04:10,413 --> 00:04:15,213 Speaker 2: one of the great movie making companies. They've got some 90 00:04:15,733 --> 00:04:22,133 Speaker 2: hugely important assets the DC World Batman. So now Netflix 91 00:04:22,173 --> 00:04:24,573 Speaker 2: owns all that and their idea is we don't want 92 00:04:24,573 --> 00:04:26,813 Speaker 2: people going out to the movies. So that is that 93 00:04:26,973 --> 00:04:29,493 Speaker 2: is huge, isn't it? That is because that means a 94 00:04:29,493 --> 00:04:34,133 Speaker 2: lot for movie theaters, people that work in there, and 95 00:04:34,133 --> 00:04:36,373 Speaker 2: and just the ability to go out to these movie 96 00:04:36,413 --> 00:04:38,533 Speaker 2: theaters and watch, watch, watch a film which I love. 97 00:04:38,613 --> 00:04:40,853 Speaker 2: I went to see pred of the bad Lands the 98 00:04:40,893 --> 00:04:44,733 Speaker 2: other day at an event cinema. It was fantastic. What 99 00:04:44,773 --> 00:04:45,333 Speaker 2: a great. 100 00:04:45,093 --> 00:04:47,973 Speaker 4: Experience, showcases of the beauty and New Zealand that film. 101 00:04:47,773 --> 00:04:48,933 Speaker 2: As well, doesn't it. Yeah? 102 00:04:48,973 --> 00:04:50,853 Speaker 3: Absolutely, if you want to love New Zealand, go and 103 00:04:50,893 --> 00:04:52,733 Speaker 3: watch that film. Outstanding And I. 104 00:04:52,653 --> 00:04:55,893 Speaker 2: Think seeing that in the movie theater was fantastic. But 105 00:04:56,293 --> 00:04:58,413 Speaker 2: Netflix want to stop all that? Yeah, what. 106 00:05:00,613 --> 00:05:02,893 Speaker 4: Do you say on that? That is after three o'clock? 107 00:05:02,973 --> 00:05:05,933 Speaker 4: After two o'clock Now, the Prime Minister was grilled on 108 00:05:05,973 --> 00:05:08,213 Speaker 4: this this morning with Heather, who's filling in for Mike 109 00:05:08,333 --> 00:05:10,213 Speaker 4: at the moment as we know. But it started off 110 00:05:11,133 --> 00:05:13,693 Speaker 4: with a opinion piece from a guy called Toss Grumbley. 111 00:05:13,853 --> 00:05:17,453 Speaker 4: That's an unfortunate name, but he's a business advisor. Toss Grumley. 112 00:05:17,733 --> 00:05:20,133 Speaker 4: There must be a nickname, but he's a business advisor. 113 00:05:20,173 --> 00:05:21,373 Speaker 4: And I think he's quite renowned in. 114 00:05:21,533 --> 00:05:22,213 Speaker 2: To get that name. 115 00:05:22,533 --> 00:05:23,653 Speaker 4: It's certain circles. 116 00:05:24,173 --> 00:05:26,293 Speaker 3: But he argued that the New Zealand summer break is 117 00:05:26,333 --> 00:05:28,453 Speaker 3: too extreme. He's just a little bit of what he said, 118 00:05:28,453 --> 00:05:31,093 Speaker 3: the summer break seems to be extending, leaving less room 119 00:05:31,133 --> 00:05:33,773 Speaker 3: for leave later in the year. But the most concerning 120 00:05:33,813 --> 00:05:37,453 Speaker 3: part is the circle back mid February mentality, which means 121 00:05:37,493 --> 00:05:40,813 Speaker 3: while many are at work, they aren't doing much productive work. 122 00:05:40,853 --> 00:05:43,853 Speaker 3: And mentioned Prime Minister Christopher Luxen, and he tended to agree. 123 00:05:43,893 --> 00:05:45,733 Speaker 3: We'll play a little bit of their audio later on, 124 00:05:45,933 --> 00:05:48,693 Speaker 3: but he did tend to agree with some of those elements, saying, yeah, 125 00:05:48,733 --> 00:05:50,253 Speaker 3: we're too lazy over Christmas. 126 00:05:50,893 --> 00:05:53,453 Speaker 2: Yeah, I get that. I always pushed back on productivity. 127 00:05:53,453 --> 00:05:55,333 Speaker 2: I'll talk about this later. I think it's kind of 128 00:05:55,333 --> 00:05:57,253 Speaker 2: like a piano accordion. You're only going to do so 129 00:05:57,333 --> 00:06:00,573 Speaker 2: much in the year. Yeah, and so if you don't 130 00:06:00,573 --> 00:06:03,013 Speaker 2: have a holiday here, you know, maybe you speed things 131 00:06:03,093 --> 00:06:05,093 Speaker 2: up either side. You know, maybe you do more business 132 00:06:05,133 --> 00:06:07,733 Speaker 2: in February because everything shut down in January. I don't know, 133 00:06:09,653 --> 00:06:11,973 Speaker 2: let's chat about it, but I think that the New 134 00:06:12,093 --> 00:06:16,373 Speaker 2: Zealand summer is part of our psyche forgetting what data 135 00:06:16,413 --> 00:06:21,213 Speaker 2: is Jandles going to the beach, just becoming sort of 136 00:06:21,253 --> 00:06:24,413 Speaker 2: feral for a while. I think that's a really important 137 00:06:24,453 --> 00:06:26,933 Speaker 2: part of who we are, and I think we should 138 00:06:26,933 --> 00:06:30,253 Speaker 2: have an economy such that it takes it into account. 139 00:06:30,293 --> 00:06:32,413 Speaker 2: That's just my personal opinion. I love to hear yours 140 00:06:32,453 --> 00:06:34,093 Speaker 2: on I e. One hundred and eighteen eighty after two. 141 00:06:34,093 --> 00:06:35,213 Speaker 4: You painted a beautiful picture. 142 00:06:35,333 --> 00:06:38,253 Speaker 3: Yes, but right now, let's have a chat about drinking 143 00:06:38,413 --> 00:06:41,693 Speaker 3: and the so called anti alcohol movement. So best Ellen. 144 00:06:41,733 --> 00:06:45,053 Speaker 3: Author American professor Scott Galloway. He was on real time 145 00:06:45,093 --> 00:06:48,253 Speaker 3: with Bill Maher last week over in the United States. 146 00:06:48,333 --> 00:06:51,053 Speaker 3: So they made the case that young men should be 147 00:06:51,133 --> 00:06:54,173 Speaker 3: drinking more and taking more risks, particularly when it comes 148 00:06:54,253 --> 00:06:54,773 Speaker 3: to dating. 149 00:06:55,133 --> 00:06:56,813 Speaker 4: Here is a little bit of that interview. 150 00:06:56,973 --> 00:06:58,933 Speaker 5: The final thing I love that you said in the 151 00:06:58,933 --> 00:07:02,693 Speaker 5: book tip to men, drink more. Safety is important. You 152 00:07:02,693 --> 00:07:05,493 Speaker 5: can't overdo drinking. It is also, as you point out, 153 00:07:05,773 --> 00:07:08,613 Speaker 5: a lubricant to get to that place where you were 154 00:07:08,653 --> 00:07:12,653 Speaker 5: talking to other people and socializing. It's not to excess, 155 00:07:12,933 --> 00:07:16,853 Speaker 5: but yes, it's drinking a little bit, maybe sometimes a 156 00:07:16,853 --> 00:07:18,973 Speaker 5: little too much when you're on a lesson is probably 157 00:07:18,973 --> 00:07:20,493 Speaker 5: better than sitting in that basement. 158 00:07:22,453 --> 00:07:24,653 Speaker 6: The second worst thing to happen to young people is 159 00:07:24,693 --> 00:07:27,533 Speaker 6: remote work. One and three. Relationships begin at work. This 160 00:07:27,613 --> 00:07:29,933 Speaker 6: is where you find friends, mentors, and mates, and especially 161 00:07:29,933 --> 00:07:32,733 Speaker 6: young men need the guardrails of a workplace. But in 162 00:07:32,773 --> 00:07:34,933 Speaker 6: my view, the worst thing that's happened to young people 163 00:07:35,053 --> 00:07:37,413 Speaker 6: is the anti alcohol movement. I've had Huberman on who 164 00:07:37,413 --> 00:07:39,893 Speaker 6: I'm a big fan of an antion and my point 165 00:07:40,093 --> 00:07:41,933 Speaker 6: is that the risk to your twenty five year old 166 00:07:41,933 --> 00:07:45,893 Speaker 6: liver are risk are dwarfed by the risk of social 167 00:07:45,973 --> 00:07:49,493 Speaker 6: isolation in some Think of all the amazing relationships you've 168 00:07:49,493 --> 00:07:52,413 Speaker 6: had in your life, and be honest, did alcohol play 169 00:07:52,453 --> 00:07:55,293 Speaker 6: a role in some? Get out, drink more and make 170 00:07:55,333 --> 00:07:57,293 Speaker 6: a series of bad decisions in my payoff. 171 00:07:57,493 --> 00:08:01,413 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a compelling argument. It's a neu compelling argument. 172 00:08:01,453 --> 00:08:02,133 Speaker 2: Boom, I loved it. 173 00:08:02,293 --> 00:08:04,413 Speaker 4: Yeah, get in this God. 174 00:08:04,573 --> 00:08:07,013 Speaker 2: So is the worst thing to happen to young people 175 00:08:07,173 --> 00:08:10,533 Speaker 2: the anti alcohol movement eight hundred and eighty ten eighty. 176 00:08:10,573 --> 00:08:13,373 Speaker 2: What are he's saying? And Professor Scott Galloway's very smart man, 177 00:08:13,533 --> 00:08:19,773 Speaker 2: fantastic author, incredibly successful businessman, a professor he still lectures 178 00:08:19,773 --> 00:08:22,373 Speaker 2: even though incredibly rich. I've interviewed him a couple of times. Yeah, 179 00:08:22,453 --> 00:08:25,133 Speaker 2: once my book and you know, as a zoom chat 180 00:08:25,133 --> 00:08:29,533 Speaker 2: with him sitting beside his giant Paul and Florida. He's smart, 181 00:08:29,573 --> 00:08:32,333 Speaker 2: but he puts things in such a way as they 182 00:08:32,333 --> 00:08:35,012 Speaker 2: get a reaction, right, And so that's classic Professor Scott 183 00:08:35,053 --> 00:08:37,693 Speaker 2: Galloway to say the worst thing to happen to young 184 00:08:37,732 --> 00:08:40,093 Speaker 2: people is the NTL cohol movement. It gets people talking. 185 00:08:40,133 --> 00:08:43,813 Speaker 2: What he's really saying is that everything in life has 186 00:08:44,372 --> 00:08:47,653 Speaker 2: trade offs, and he's saying that the health risks of 187 00:08:47,813 --> 00:08:51,773 Speaker 2: moderate alcohol use are worse than the mental health career 188 00:08:51,813 --> 00:08:56,093 Speaker 2: and social risks of loneliness and isolation. So do you 189 00:08:56,252 --> 00:08:59,773 Speaker 2: do you agree? Did did alcohol lead to connections both social, romantic, 190 00:09:00,093 --> 00:09:03,333 Speaker 2: or in your life? Or do you think this take 191 00:09:03,453 --> 00:09:06,773 Speaker 2: just sort of glamorizes drinking and it ignores other ways 192 00:09:06,813 --> 00:09:10,053 Speaker 2: that people could me I'll read out a text again 193 00:09:10,173 --> 00:09:14,252 Speaker 2: that I read out before, which I thought was interesting before. 194 00:09:14,453 --> 00:09:16,693 Speaker 2: You know, we go nationwide at one, so we have 195 00:09:16,773 --> 00:09:19,612 Speaker 2: a we have some countries, some parts of the country 196 00:09:19,653 --> 00:09:20,693 Speaker 2: join us at twelve something going on. 197 00:09:20,732 --> 00:09:21,933 Speaker 4: We're not meant to talk about it, but we talk 198 00:09:21,973 --> 00:09:22,693 Speaker 4: about it because it's. 199 00:09:23,093 --> 00:09:24,053 Speaker 2: We're supposed to talk about it. 200 00:09:24,053 --> 00:09:26,013 Speaker 4: I don't know scret. Everybody knows I'm. 201 00:09:25,852 --> 00:09:26,453 Speaker 2: An honest guy. 202 00:09:26,573 --> 00:09:28,492 Speaker 4: Yeah, got to be transparent. 203 00:09:28,573 --> 00:09:31,492 Speaker 2: This texter said, I would rather my son was out 204 00:09:31,533 --> 00:09:33,533 Speaker 2: at a pub having a drink with friends that were 205 00:09:34,053 --> 00:09:37,813 Speaker 2: that where he van where he is on Friday Saturday nights, 206 00:09:37,813 --> 00:09:39,893 Speaker 2: locked in his room, refusing to do anything. I would 207 00:09:39,892 --> 00:09:42,933 Speaker 2: be happy to pick him up rotten. I'd be more 208 00:09:42,933 --> 00:09:45,213 Speaker 2: happy to pick him up rotten than just seeing him rot. 209 00:09:45,573 --> 00:09:47,933 Speaker 2: So I thought was written quite nicely by this mum. 210 00:09:49,252 --> 00:09:55,012 Speaker 2: So what do you think about that? It's it's yeah. 211 00:09:53,492 --> 00:09:55,733 Speaker 3: It's a it's an interesting argument, and I think you 212 00:09:55,773 --> 00:09:57,653 Speaker 3: know the way he put it was incredibly compelling. But 213 00:09:57,693 --> 00:09:59,412 Speaker 3: what do you say, oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eight, 214 00:09:59,413 --> 00:10:02,093 Speaker 3: I'll just say the compelling part there is the idea 215 00:10:02,093 --> 00:10:04,813 Speaker 3: and you mentioned it before that everything has a certain risk, 216 00:10:04,852 --> 00:10:07,093 Speaker 3: and on that health risk, and I think he's got 217 00:10:07,093 --> 00:10:08,892 Speaker 3: a fair point that the risk so your liver, in 218 00:10:08,933 --> 00:10:12,133 Speaker 3: your general health by moderate drinking. There's clearly a risk 219 00:10:12,132 --> 00:10:15,333 Speaker 3: involved there. And he mentioned Andrew Huberman who's been he's 220 00:10:15,333 --> 00:10:17,172 Speaker 3: a big anti alcohol man at the moment. 221 00:10:16,933 --> 00:10:19,533 Speaker 2: He's no drinks. Here's a no drinks guy now, yep. 222 00:10:19,693 --> 00:10:24,413 Speaker 3: Versus that social isolation, the ability to go out and 223 00:10:24,533 --> 00:10:27,693 Speaker 3: meet people and make some bad decisions and form some 224 00:10:27,773 --> 00:10:31,133 Speaker 3: of the greatest relationships you'll ever have in your life. 225 00:10:31,372 --> 00:10:33,693 Speaker 3: For a lot of people, me included, that was brought 226 00:10:33,693 --> 00:10:34,933 Speaker 3: on by a little bit of booze. 227 00:10:34,973 --> 00:10:38,973 Speaker 2: So the booze gave you the Dutch courage to ask 228 00:10:39,533 --> 00:10:42,453 Speaker 2: that lady out on a date yep, or talk to 229 00:10:42,533 --> 00:10:48,012 Speaker 2: a superior in your workplace such that you've got a 230 00:10:48,053 --> 00:10:51,573 Speaker 2: promotion that kind of thing. Or is this just function 231 00:10:51,773 --> 00:10:56,492 Speaker 2: a function of a society where we equate alcohol with 232 00:10:56,852 --> 00:11:01,652 Speaker 2: those kind of opportunities, where that the alcohol isn't necessarily 233 00:11:01,693 --> 00:11:04,132 Speaker 2: the thing that's doing that, it's just the way we 234 00:11:04,173 --> 00:11:06,573 Speaker 2: do it. So that's where we think it's acceptable to 235 00:11:06,612 --> 00:11:09,732 Speaker 2: approach people. You know, it's a fair argument because you 236 00:11:09,773 --> 00:11:12,892 Speaker 2: could argue that you join a choir. I don't know 237 00:11:12,892 --> 00:11:15,172 Speaker 2: why I keep bring up quoirse during a good time, 238 00:11:15,213 --> 00:11:18,413 Speaker 2: you bring a social sports team, any one of those things, 239 00:11:18,453 --> 00:11:22,933 Speaker 2: then you maybe you could have these interactions without alcohol. 240 00:11:23,093 --> 00:11:26,293 Speaker 4: Yes, interesting point, and I think there's fair christals on there. 241 00:11:26,372 --> 00:11:29,573 Speaker 2: But especially for men. And he's written his latest book, 242 00:11:29,573 --> 00:11:32,493 Speaker 2: which is fantastic. I slip in the name of it, 243 00:11:32,492 --> 00:11:38,453 Speaker 2: slipped my mind, but say For example, Tyler, if I 244 00:11:38,492 --> 00:11:40,333 Speaker 2: asked you, would you like to go out for a 245 00:11:40,372 --> 00:11:43,413 Speaker 2: walk with me? If I texted you on a Saturday afternoon, 246 00:11:43,413 --> 00:11:45,373 Speaker 2: I said, it's a beautiful day. Would you like to 247 00:11:45,413 --> 00:11:47,292 Speaker 2: go for a walk and a chat with me? That 248 00:11:47,333 --> 00:11:49,372 Speaker 2: would be quite a socially awkward thing to say to you. 249 00:11:49,453 --> 00:11:50,973 Speaker 2: But if I said, hey, Tyler, do you want to 250 00:11:51,012 --> 00:11:54,533 Speaker 2: come for a beer? Then that would be socially acceptable definitely. 251 00:11:54,533 --> 00:11:57,053 Speaker 2: But both would have the outcome of us chatting. 252 00:11:57,333 --> 00:11:59,652 Speaker 3: Because you need that crutch. I think for men in general, 253 00:11:59,732 --> 00:12:01,773 Speaker 3: you need something on the side rather than just having 254 00:12:01,813 --> 00:12:03,013 Speaker 3: a chat, to make it a little. 255 00:12:02,773 --> 00:12:04,973 Speaker 4: Bit more comfortable. But what do you say? Oh, eight 256 00:12:05,132 --> 00:12:06,852 Speaker 4: hundred eighty and eighty is that number to call? 257 00:12:06,973 --> 00:12:09,333 Speaker 2: Chris says if people would stop hosting their problems on 258 00:12:09,372 --> 00:12:12,213 Speaker 2: Facebook and drink alcohol, the world would be a better place. 259 00:12:12,492 --> 00:12:14,653 Speaker 2: And bear is proof God loves us and wants us 260 00:12:14,653 --> 00:12:17,933 Speaker 2: to be happy. Okay, Yeah, but alcohol is also the 261 00:12:17,933 --> 00:12:22,292 Speaker 2: proof of the yin and yan of life, because you 262 00:12:22,612 --> 00:12:25,013 Speaker 2: fly so high and then the next day you know, 263 00:12:25,892 --> 00:12:31,813 Speaker 2: there's there's the there's the Hanks anxiety as they call it, 264 00:12:31,852 --> 00:12:32,372 Speaker 2: the next day. 265 00:12:32,372 --> 00:12:33,333 Speaker 4: Which can be awful. 266 00:12:33,372 --> 00:12:33,612 Speaker 7: Yeah. 267 00:12:33,653 --> 00:12:35,333 Speaker 2: Oh eight one hundred and eighty ten eighty is that 268 00:12:35,413 --> 00:12:36,813 Speaker 2: number to call if you want to send a teacher 269 00:12:36,813 --> 00:12:37,413 Speaker 2: more than welcome. 270 00:12:37,653 --> 00:12:40,372 Speaker 3: Nine two ninety two is that number. Have we gone 271 00:12:40,453 --> 00:12:43,493 Speaker 3: too far with anti alcohol, particularly when it comes to 272 00:12:43,612 --> 00:12:44,933 Speaker 3: young people socializing? 273 00:12:45,053 --> 00:12:49,492 Speaker 2: The ironically named Chery says not good alcohol is a depressant. 274 00:12:49,533 --> 00:12:52,013 Speaker 2: This professor was one hundred percent in the wrong. My 275 00:12:52,093 --> 00:12:54,253 Speaker 2: sister was killed by a drunk driver three times over 276 00:12:54,252 --> 00:12:57,173 Speaker 2: the legal limit. Oh my god, this is irresponsible for 277 00:12:57,173 --> 00:12:59,213 Speaker 2: you to even be talking about this and promoting this. 278 00:12:59,813 --> 00:13:02,333 Speaker 2: Now you've got to talk about everything. Chery, absolutely, and 279 00:13:02,372 --> 00:13:05,132 Speaker 2: that is very very very grim or MBDy your sister, 280 00:13:05,173 --> 00:13:07,973 Speaker 2: and I feel for you, but I think I think 281 00:13:08,173 --> 00:13:10,693 Speaker 2: to talking about things is the way we work them out. 282 00:13:10,773 --> 00:13:10,853 Speaker 8: Ye. 283 00:13:10,933 --> 00:13:12,412 Speaker 2: So eight hundred and eighty ten eighty. 284 00:13:12,693 --> 00:13:16,173 Speaker 4: It is eighteen past one. Bag very shortly the. 285 00:13:16,012 --> 00:13:19,213 Speaker 1: Big stories, the big issues, to the big trends and 286 00:13:19,533 --> 00:13:20,533 Speaker 1: everything in between. 287 00:13:20,693 --> 00:13:23,612 Speaker 9: Matt Heath and Tayler Adams afternoons used talks. 288 00:13:23,653 --> 00:13:26,412 Speaker 3: They'd be for a good afternoon, tu you. Twenty one 289 00:13:26,492 --> 00:13:30,093 Speaker 3: past one. We are talking about a comment from Professor 290 00:13:30,093 --> 00:13:34,333 Speaker 3: Scott Galloway, very well known professor and best selling author. 291 00:13:34,372 --> 00:13:37,532 Speaker 3: He was on an American chat show and I'm paraphrasing here, 292 00:13:37,573 --> 00:13:40,293 Speaker 3: but he effectively said, in his view, the number one 293 00:13:40,333 --> 00:13:43,093 Speaker 3: worst thing to happen to young people is the anti 294 00:13:43,173 --> 00:13:46,333 Speaker 3: alcohol movement. The risk to liver in general health with 295 00:13:46,492 --> 00:13:50,093 Speaker 3: moderate drinking is dwarfed by the risk of social isolation. 296 00:13:50,213 --> 00:13:51,573 Speaker 3: So what do you say, Oh, one hundred and eighty 297 00:13:51,612 --> 00:13:52,853 Speaker 3: ten eighty is that number to call? 298 00:13:53,533 --> 00:13:54,612 Speaker 2: Peter, Welcome to the show. 299 00:13:55,453 --> 00:13:58,532 Speaker 10: Hey, Hey, you blend you. Hey. I'm reminded of something 300 00:13:58,533 --> 00:14:02,453 Speaker 10: that the comedian Drew Cherry said, And there's something along 301 00:14:02,492 --> 00:14:05,093 Speaker 10: the lines of, Oh, you don't like your boss, your 302 00:14:05,173 --> 00:14:07,612 Speaker 10: job sucks your love life down the toilet. You want 303 00:14:07,612 --> 00:14:10,653 Speaker 10: to support group, Well, here's one. It's called Everybody, and 304 00:14:10,693 --> 00:14:11,453 Speaker 10: we meet at the bar. 305 00:14:13,173 --> 00:14:13,652 Speaker 7: Yep. Good. 306 00:14:14,892 --> 00:14:19,773 Speaker 10: And to me it's true as something that's actually had 307 00:14:19,773 --> 00:14:22,653 Speaker 10: a little bit of relevance in recent days. And it's 308 00:14:22,653 --> 00:14:25,412 Speaker 10: the concept of the third place. Have you heard about that? No, 309 00:14:27,133 --> 00:14:29,853 Speaker 10: the third place. Everybody's got at least two places in 310 00:14:29,893 --> 00:14:32,293 Speaker 10: their lives. They've got their work, they've got to their home, 311 00:14:32,853 --> 00:14:36,653 Speaker 10: but they don't have that third place anymore. There's no 312 00:14:36,693 --> 00:14:39,253 Speaker 10: place that we can go to forget about home and life. 313 00:14:39,373 --> 00:14:42,412 Speaker 10: We've always got pressures on one of the other and 314 00:14:43,533 --> 00:14:47,133 Speaker 10: I think the local pub, of the local tavern. It's 315 00:14:47,213 --> 00:14:50,292 Speaker 10: served as that third place for such a long long time, 316 00:14:50,773 --> 00:14:54,133 Speaker 10: and now we sort of bows it ourselves out of it, 317 00:14:54,253 --> 00:14:55,013 Speaker 10: if you know what I mean. 318 00:14:55,893 --> 00:14:57,853 Speaker 2: Yeah, do you think that that might be a function 319 00:14:57,973 --> 00:15:00,333 Speaker 2: of our culture though? Because your third place could be 320 00:15:00,413 --> 00:15:03,653 Speaker 2: a gym, some kind of club, you know, you could 321 00:15:03,733 --> 00:15:07,173 Speaker 2: volunteers somewhere. Do you think that maybe we just we 322 00:15:07,413 --> 00:15:11,333 Speaker 2: that's just this so motionally acceptable third place, the easiest 323 00:15:11,373 --> 00:15:11,893 Speaker 2: third place. 324 00:15:11,973 --> 00:15:14,893 Speaker 10: Peter, Well, you know, there's the other thing is we 325 00:15:15,013 --> 00:15:16,613 Speaker 10: used to go to a movie theaters. We don't do that. 326 00:15:16,653 --> 00:15:19,653 Speaker 10: Now we stay at home and watch Netflix. We just 327 00:15:19,693 --> 00:15:22,053 Speaker 10: don't go out anymore. We don't go to restaurants, we 328 00:15:22,133 --> 00:15:27,893 Speaker 10: do door dash. It's it's we are sort of developing 329 00:15:27,973 --> 00:15:32,653 Speaker 10: society that is yeared towards social isolation when we should 330 00:15:32,653 --> 00:15:36,493 Speaker 10: be getting out and meeting people and taking risks and 331 00:15:36,573 --> 00:15:39,973 Speaker 10: being you know, you talk to some of the most 332 00:15:39,973 --> 00:15:43,293 Speaker 10: successful people in the world in this chosen field, and 333 00:15:43,333 --> 00:15:47,453 Speaker 10: they're the ones that have always taken risks at the start. Yeah, 334 00:15:47,493 --> 00:15:50,773 Speaker 10: and we winged ourselves off it. Everything's just you know, 335 00:15:50,893 --> 00:15:56,573 Speaker 10: too safe. It's it's I think it's a little bit 336 00:15:56,573 --> 00:15:59,053 Speaker 10: of a downer where it comes to looking at where 337 00:15:59,053 --> 00:16:00,853 Speaker 10: society is at the moment compared to how it was, 338 00:16:00,973 --> 00:16:03,733 Speaker 10: you know, way back in the eighties before social media 339 00:16:03,933 --> 00:16:04,653 Speaker 10: ruined everything. 340 00:16:05,573 --> 00:16:08,893 Speaker 2: Do you think that you know, in the idea your world, 341 00:16:08,973 --> 00:16:12,813 Speaker 2: we wouldn't need alcohol, that that what we actually need 342 00:16:13,013 --> 00:16:16,053 Speaker 2: is to deal with our you know, other ways of 343 00:16:16,093 --> 00:16:20,213 Speaker 2: dealing with loneliness and anxiety and being introverted that. 344 00:16:20,573 --> 00:16:22,413 Speaker 10: You know, I mean, ours have been around for two 345 00:16:22,493 --> 00:16:25,213 Speaker 10: thousand years or so, so you know, a fucking chery. 346 00:16:25,013 --> 00:16:25,613 Speaker 11: Still out on that. 347 00:16:26,013 --> 00:16:28,453 Speaker 10: There's nothing wrong with having to quiet be or a 348 00:16:28,453 --> 00:16:32,093 Speaker 10: few wines, a little bit of social lubrication as fine. 349 00:16:32,293 --> 00:16:35,493 Speaker 10: It's when things go to excess that's when there's a problem. Now. 350 00:16:35,533 --> 00:16:38,453 Speaker 10: Society is right to say, hey, you know ty hooe. 351 00:16:38,573 --> 00:16:40,693 Speaker 10: Society is right to say, hey, don't drink and drive. 352 00:16:41,013 --> 00:16:43,133 Speaker 10: Society is right to say, hey, you know, have a 353 00:16:43,173 --> 00:16:45,173 Speaker 10: couple of beers, but don't destroy your life over it. 354 00:16:45,693 --> 00:16:49,533 Speaker 10: But I think when society says, you know, with these 355 00:16:49,573 --> 00:16:54,373 Speaker 10: absolute ways, oh you must not drink, I think we're 356 00:16:54,373 --> 00:16:55,292 Speaker 10: taking something away. 357 00:16:55,453 --> 00:16:56,253 Speaker 7: And I think. 358 00:16:56,333 --> 00:16:59,213 Speaker 10: Professor Galloway, who I've heard on a number of issues, 359 00:17:00,493 --> 00:17:02,653 Speaker 10: is right on the money. There, you know, get out, 360 00:17:02,773 --> 00:17:04,573 Speaker 10: have a few drinks, have a few laughs. 361 00:17:05,053 --> 00:17:08,493 Speaker 2: So do you think that maybe the public health sort 362 00:17:08,533 --> 00:17:12,893 Speaker 2: of narrative implying that any alcohol is harmful has oversimplified 363 00:17:13,173 --> 00:17:14,173 Speaker 2: that this situation. 364 00:17:14,173 --> 00:17:17,373 Speaker 10: Absolutely. You know, people say, I think two years off 365 00:17:17,373 --> 00:17:20,053 Speaker 10: your life. Well, you know my aunt of that as well. 366 00:17:20,053 --> 00:17:22,292 Speaker 10: Those normally right at the end. And they suck anyway, 367 00:17:23,413 --> 00:17:26,213 Speaker 10: so you know, enjoy life. Life is for loving. 368 00:17:26,613 --> 00:17:30,173 Speaker 2: Arguably they suck more with you if your lover collapses. 369 00:17:30,893 --> 00:17:33,293 Speaker 10: But well that is true, that's true. But I mean, 370 00:17:33,373 --> 00:17:37,053 Speaker 10: you know, there's nothing wrong with a couple of beers 371 00:17:37,053 --> 00:17:39,773 Speaker 10: of an evening. There's certainly something wrong with a dozen 372 00:17:39,813 --> 00:17:43,532 Speaker 10: beers in an evening. I think great days a silly 373 00:17:43,653 --> 00:17:46,573 Speaker 10: concept for a start. You know, just having a couple 374 00:17:46,613 --> 00:17:48,933 Speaker 10: of beers with your mate, there's nothing wrong with that. 375 00:17:48,973 --> 00:17:51,853 Speaker 10: In fact, it's probably but far will help you in 376 00:17:51,853 --> 00:17:53,453 Speaker 10: the long run in terms of your mental health. 377 00:17:53,733 --> 00:17:55,653 Speaker 2: Yeah, we do get into the sort of zero sum 378 00:17:55,693 --> 00:17:59,253 Speaker 2: conversation where we describe the worst possible thing that's happened 379 00:18:00,373 --> 00:18:03,933 Speaker 2: with alcohol and then equate that to three beers worth 380 00:18:04,253 --> 00:18:10,453 Speaker 2: friends in the sun on a Saturday afternoon, and they're 381 00:18:10,493 --> 00:18:14,253 Speaker 2: absolutely world apart. So and Professor Scott Galloway is saying this, 382 00:18:14,533 --> 00:18:17,853 Speaker 2: you know, to be overtly demonstrative. Isn't he the worst 383 00:18:17,853 --> 00:18:21,693 Speaker 2: thing to young people as the anti alcohol movement? But 384 00:18:21,733 --> 00:18:24,893 Speaker 2: what he's really saying is that, you know, mild to 385 00:18:25,053 --> 00:18:29,013 Speaker 2: moderate alcohol consumption, well, it does, no doubt reduce social 386 00:18:29,093 --> 00:18:32,373 Speaker 2: anxiety to the point where maybe you will, you know, 387 00:18:32,573 --> 00:18:36,613 Speaker 2: make connections that you wouldn't make without those couple of beers. Obviously, 388 00:18:36,653 --> 00:18:39,613 Speaker 2: if you have twenty five beers vomit on someone, blackout 389 00:18:39,693 --> 00:18:44,133 Speaker 2: drunk and end up in you know, a cell, then 390 00:18:44,213 --> 00:18:46,052 Speaker 2: that's that's not helping anyone. 391 00:18:46,613 --> 00:18:49,213 Speaker 3: It's not good for making friends. Yeah, Peter, thank you 392 00:18:49,293 --> 00:18:51,253 Speaker 3: very much. Really good to get your thoughts. Oh eight, 393 00:18:51,253 --> 00:18:53,173 Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number to 394 00:18:53,213 --> 00:18:56,373 Speaker 3: call love to hear your thoughts on Scott Galloway saying 395 00:18:56,413 --> 00:18:58,093 Speaker 3: that the worst thing to happen to young people was 396 00:18:58,133 --> 00:18:59,493 Speaker 3: the anti alcohol movements. 397 00:18:59,533 --> 00:19:01,493 Speaker 4: It is twenty seven past one. 398 00:19:01,373 --> 00:19:02,933 Speaker 2: And did you get the name of that book?

Part of my 411 00:19:32,253 --> 00:19:34,653 Speaker 13: role as protecting people against the power of the state 412 00:19:34,653 --> 00:19:35,773 Speaker 13: when they put up against it. 413 00:19:35,853 --> 00:19:38,573 Speaker 12: Christopher Luxen, Prime Minister.

When The opposite of 425 00:20:03,933 --> 00:20:07,093 Speaker 3: sometimes not drinking is social isolation, which is incredibly harmful. 426 00:20:07,133 --> 00:20:09,213 Speaker 3: Love to hear your thoughts one hundred y eighty. 427 00:20:09,173 --> 00:20:11,453 Speaker 2: Jeremy says, you're drinking, buddies are often just that they 428 00:20:11,493 --> 00:20:13,653 Speaker 2: don't care about you and don't want to be around 429 00:20:13,693 --> 00:20:16,093 Speaker 2: you if you are sober, They simply want company while 430 00:20:16,093 --> 00:20:19,613 Speaker 2: they're drunk.

What happened was 433 00:20:27,973 --> 00:20:30,693 Speaker 2: he just found people that would drink with him, right, 434 00:20:31,173 --> 00:20:34,093 Speaker 2: And when I came across and with those people, I 435 00:20:34,093 --> 00:20:36,733 Speaker 2: was like, these people are not your friends. Yeah, they 436 00:20:36,773 --> 00:20:38,733 Speaker 2: are just you just all enabling each other. 437 00:20:39,093 --> 00:20:41,613 Speaker 3: Certainly can happen, but what I you know, I think 438 00:20:41,893 --> 00:20:44,532 Speaker 3: certainly for my friend's circle, maybe this isn't common. But 439 00:20:45,373 --> 00:20:48,213 Speaker 3: you reach a point where you know, drinking every weekend 440 00:20:48,293 --> 00:20:50,813 Speaker 3: is not going to fly anymore because you've got more responsibilities. 441 00:20:50,813 --> 00:20:52,893 Speaker 3: You're renting into adulthood, and that's where we're at at 442 00:20:52,893 --> 00:20:56,493 Speaker 3: the moment. But some of the best stories and situations 443 00:20:56,533 --> 00:20:58,813 Speaker 3: we've been in in our lives were when we went 444 00:20:58,893 --> 00:21:00,813 Speaker 3: out drinking and maybe went a little bit too far 445 00:21:00,853 --> 00:21:03,493 Speaker 3: in some aspects because are the things you laugh about, 446 00:21:03,533 --> 00:21:05,693 Speaker 3: and it's you know, I don't want to use this 447 00:21:05,773 --> 00:21:08,133 Speaker 3: analogy too strongly. 448 00:21:08,653 --> 00:21:11,213 Speaker 4: Came to brother and sisterhood in the military, that. 449 00:21:11,253 --> 00:21:14,093 Speaker 3: You go out there and you're a team and you 450 00:21:14,173 --> 00:21:16,013 Speaker 3: might make some poor decisions and you come out the 451 00:21:16,053 --> 00:21:19,533 Speaker 3: other side. I mean that is bonding at its highest level, 452 00:21:19,533 --> 00:21:22,253 Speaker 3: when you've got those stories and situations look back on 453 00:21:22,573 --> 00:21:24,733 Speaker 3: and say, jeepers, where I don't know how we got 454 00:21:24,733 --> 00:21:27,053 Speaker 3: into that situation, but we made it out. I mean, 455 00:21:27,093 --> 00:21:29,253 Speaker 3: that's where those friendships come from. I mean that those 456 00:21:29,293 --> 00:21:31,373 Speaker 3: are the guys I will still you know, the right 457 00:21:31,493 --> 00:21:33,613 Speaker 3: or die friends. And there's only if you're lucky, if 458 00:21:33,653 --> 00:21:35,253 Speaker 3: you've got a handful in your life. And those are 459 00:21:35,253 --> 00:21:36,292 Speaker 3: those guys in my life. 460 00:21:36,493 --> 00:21:38,693 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean this might sound hypocritical from a guy 461 00:21:38,733 --> 00:21:41,093 Speaker 2: who wrote a song called Beers and had a big 462 00:21:41,173 --> 00:21:44,133 Speaker 2: hit with it the Bandaja Voodoo. Great song, but equally, 463 00:21:45,213 --> 00:21:48,253 Speaker 2: some of the worst moments in your life are hangovers 464 00:21:48,293 --> 00:21:50,613 Speaker 2: from alcohol, and some of the worst things you do 465 00:21:50,693 --> 00:21:54,013 Speaker 2: in your life are when you've been drunk.

I have three bears, and as a 472 00:22:11,013 --> 00:22:15,213 Speaker 2: result you have you meet someone lovely at a bar 473 00:22:15,493 --> 00:22:17,373 Speaker 2: and you would be too socially awkward to talk to 474 00:22:17,373 --> 00:22:19,973 Speaker 2: them without the bears, and then you go on to 475 00:22:20,013 --> 00:22:22,613 Speaker 2: create a family with them and have an incredibly wholesome 476 00:22:22,693 --> 00:22:25,053 Speaker 2: rest of your life.

You can see the 503 00:23:58,893 --> 00:24:01,493 Speaker 8: full column at ends at Herald Premium. Now back to 504 00:24:01,533 --> 00:24:02,853 Speaker 8: matt Ethan Tyler Adams. 505 00:24:02,893 --> 00:24:04,453 Speaker 4: Thank you very much, Ray Lane. 506 00:24:04,613 --> 00:24:07,532 Speaker 3: So we have been talking about a message from our 507 00:24:07,533 --> 00:24:10,853 Speaker 3: professor Skogan. Now he was on real time with Bill Maher, 508 00:24:10,893 --> 00:24:13,693 Speaker 3: a very popular and successful talk show over in America, 509 00:24:14,133 --> 00:24:17,013 Speaker 3: and he made the point that he thinks, in his opinion, 510 00:24:17,013 --> 00:24:19,253 Speaker 3: the worst thing to happen to young people, particularly young men, 511 00:24:19,293 --> 00:24:22,693 Speaker 3: but young women as well was the anti alcohol movement. 512 00:24:23,013 --> 00:24:25,693 Speaker 3: But Scott Galloway and Matt you would know this because 513 00:24:25,693 --> 00:24:28,253 Speaker 3: you've spoken to him and obviously read some of his books. 514 00:24:28,293 --> 00:24:32,333 Speaker 3: He has been quite heavy on the plant of young 515 00:24:32,373 --> 00:24:35,773 Speaker 3: men in particular over recent years. So when you look 516 00:24:35,813 --> 00:24:38,973 Speaker 3: at the stats of young men in today's modern society 517 00:24:39,253 --> 00:24:41,853 Speaker 3: on how badly they're doing, it is pretty grim. And 518 00:24:41,853 --> 00:24:45,213 Speaker 3: he's a little bit of Professor Galloway going through those stats. 519 00:24:45,573 --> 00:24:48,893 Speaker 6: Well, the statistics are pretty storic. If you walked into 520 00:24:49,293 --> 00:24:52,373 Speaker 6: a morgue and there's five people died by suicide, four 521 00:24:52,373 --> 00:24:54,933 Speaker 6: and men, we have a homeless problem, in an opia problem, 522 00:24:54,973 --> 00:24:56,813 Speaker 6: But what we really have is a male homeless and 523 00:24:56,853 --> 00:24:59,493 Speaker 6: a male opia problem. Three times is likely to be addicted, 524 00:24:59,493 --> 00:25:01,853 Speaker 6: three times as likely to be homeless, twelve times is 525 00:25:01,933 --> 00:25:04,973 Speaker 6: likely to be incarcerated. More single women own homes, and 526 00:25:05,013 --> 00:25:08,173 Speaker 6: single men and women in urban areas are making more money. 527 00:25:08,333 --> 00:25:10,813 Speaker 6: T Me be clear, we should do nothing to get 528 00:25:10,853 --> 00:25:13,333 Speaker 6: in the way of that. But if we don't have 529 00:25:13,853 --> 00:25:16,613 Speaker 6: if our young men continue to fleil our country and 530 00:25:16,693 --> 00:25:19,532 Speaker 6: women aren't going to continue to flourish. And just a 531 00:25:19,573 --> 00:25:22,653 Speaker 6: couple of things you brought up loneliness and then role models. 532 00:25:23,013 --> 00:25:25,013 Speaker 6: One out of four in man count am a best round. 533 00:25:25,053 --> 00:25:28,133 Speaker 6: One out of seven men don't have a single friend. 534 00:25:28,653 --> 00:25:30,613 Speaker 6: And what I would say is there's a lot of 535 00:25:30,653 --> 00:25:33,133 Speaker 6: factors around this, but it's getting worse. 536 00:25:34,173 --> 00:25:37,573 Speaker 3: So in relation to the anti alcohol movement in Professor 537 00:25:37,613 --> 00:25:40,333 Speaker 3: Scott Galloway, that last part about friends, the right will die, 538 00:25:40,413 --> 00:25:43,013 Speaker 3: the people that you call upon when you get into trouble. 539 00:25:43,533 --> 00:25:46,853 Speaker 3: The fact that you know, a big chunk of young 540 00:25:46,893 --> 00:25:49,653 Speaker 3: men these days do not have a single best friend 541 00:25:49,773 --> 00:25:52,613 Speaker 3: that they can call upon when they're in trouble, there's devastating. 542 00:25:52,973 --> 00:25:56,413 Speaker 2: Yeah. And men are currently twelve times more likely to 543 00:25:56,493 --> 00:25:58,653 Speaker 2: have no one at their funeral to have a government 544 00:25:58,693 --> 00:26:02,373 Speaker 2: funeral because they know absolutely no one when they die. Yeah. 545 00:26:02,813 --> 00:26:06,613 Speaker 2: So you know, the point Professor Scott Galloway is making 546 00:26:07,013 --> 00:26:10,173 Speaker 2: is if moderate alcohol means that they get over their 547 00:26:10,173 --> 00:26:13,733 Speaker 2: social awkwardness to the point where they make friends and 548 00:26:13,853 --> 00:26:17,613 Speaker 2: aren't so socially awkward, then on balance, he says, it's 549 00:26:17,653 --> 00:26:21,093 Speaker 2: a bitter thing. While acknowledging the terrible downside of alcohol 550 00:26:21,613 --> 00:26:23,733 Speaker 2: as well. Dallas, Welcome to the show. 551 00:26:24,613 --> 00:26:28,413 Speaker 14: Yeah, hi guys, this is such a very good discussion, 552 00:26:29,733 --> 00:26:32,613 Speaker 14: an important one for New Zealand. And it's only facet 553 00:26:33,493 --> 00:26:36,333 Speaker 14: you know. And I hope you go past two o'clock 554 00:26:36,373 --> 00:26:38,333 Speaker 14: on the sign, but we'll see how it goes. But 555 00:26:39,173 --> 00:26:41,293 Speaker 14: just you're on your opening remarks, I just wanted to 556 00:26:41,333 --> 00:26:44,333 Speaker 14: ask you quickly. You must get a lot of political 557 00:26:44,413 --> 00:26:48,013 Speaker 14: texts coming in every day. Are the worst ones from 558 00:26:48,053 --> 00:26:49,453 Speaker 14: the right or from the left? 559 00:26:52,053 --> 00:26:53,213 Speaker 2: What you mean the most abusive? 560 00:26:54,173 --> 00:26:54,613 Speaker 11: Yeah? 561 00:26:55,293 --> 00:26:57,533 Speaker 2: M sometimes it's just straight up abuse. So I mean, 562 00:26:57,653 --> 00:27:02,013 Speaker 2: I think nine two ninety two is a absolutely fire 563 00:27:02,053 --> 00:27:04,373 Speaker 2: whatever you wanted all for. 564 00:27:04,413 --> 00:27:07,373 Speaker 3: It extremes on both sides, But yeah, narrow it down 565 00:27:07,413 --> 00:27:08,813 Speaker 3: to what side is the worst? 566 00:27:09,173 --> 00:27:11,093 Speaker 4: Genuinely, I don't know if I could say. 567 00:27:11,173 --> 00:27:14,213 Speaker 2: On this particular topic, I think from the left, because 568 00:27:14,253 --> 00:27:19,813 Speaker 2: for some reason, the left seems to be more restrictive 569 00:27:19,853 --> 00:27:21,453 Speaker 2: when it comes to alcohol than the right and the 570 00:27:21,453 --> 00:27:23,213 Speaker 2: current clip. But it used to be different, didn't it. 571 00:27:23,213 --> 00:27:25,613 Speaker 2: It used to be the other way around. It's funny 572 00:27:25,653 --> 00:27:27,133 Speaker 2: how things change. What is left and right? 573 00:27:27,173 --> 00:27:27,333 Speaker 15: Though? 574 00:27:27,333 --> 00:27:30,052 Speaker 2: Now it's all all over the scale. Dallas. 575 00:27:30,893 --> 00:27:33,453 Speaker 14: Yeah, I guess you get a lot of anti justinder 576 00:27:33,653 --> 00:27:37,813 Speaker 14: text coming in. But that's another topic. Yeah, this is 577 00:27:38,533 --> 00:27:41,853 Speaker 14: another thing I wanted to ash you about alcohol. If 578 00:27:41,893 --> 00:27:44,493 Speaker 14: you add up all the jay in the world from 579 00:27:44,533 --> 00:27:49,093 Speaker 14: alcohol against the sorrow, which wins, you know, as alcohol 580 00:27:49,173 --> 00:27:51,893 Speaker 14: caused more joy in the world or more sorrow. That's 581 00:27:51,893 --> 00:27:52,733 Speaker 14: an industry one to. 582 00:27:52,773 --> 00:27:56,173 Speaker 2: Isn't it be a difficult one to work out? I 583 00:27:56,173 --> 00:28:00,613 Speaker 2: guess it's an individual thing, isn't it? Across society? The 584 00:28:01,493 --> 00:28:04,812 Speaker 2: terror and the horror of you know, drunk drivers that 585 00:28:04,893 --> 00:28:07,933 Speaker 2: kill people, the domestic violence, A lot of the terrible 586 00:28:07,973 --> 00:28:12,333 Speaker 2: things happen at the faring at the ends of the spectrum, 587 00:28:12,653 --> 00:28:16,853 Speaker 2: absolute horrors. But the moderate drinker that meets a partner 588 00:28:16,933 --> 00:28:18,572 Speaker 2: that they wouldn't go up and talk to if they 589 00:28:18,613 --> 00:28:20,813 Speaker 2: hadn't had a couple of drinks because they're socially awkward. 590 00:28:20,853 --> 00:28:23,893 Speaker 2: That goes on to you know, a whole wholesome experience 591 00:28:23,933 --> 00:28:26,373 Speaker 2: in life. I think it comes down to sort of 592 00:28:26,373 --> 00:28:30,253 Speaker 2: an individual thing. Dallas. It would be a hard hard 593 00:28:30,253 --> 00:28:31,293 Speaker 2: one to tell you up. 594 00:28:32,213 --> 00:28:33,893 Speaker 4: What's your thoughts on add Dallas? 595 00:28:34,693 --> 00:28:38,813 Speaker 14: No, I just throw that out there. You know, it's 596 00:28:38,893 --> 00:28:42,013 Speaker 14: just an intersty one. But in the new Zealing context. 597 00:28:42,173 --> 00:28:45,093 Speaker 14: It come back to the alcohol thing here. You know, 598 00:28:45,693 --> 00:28:47,893 Speaker 14: I don't know, in the past we've had a problem 599 00:28:47,973 --> 00:28:50,773 Speaker 14: with you know, you can't celebrate anything without a beer 600 00:28:50,813 --> 00:28:55,373 Speaker 14: in your hand or wine, and that we need to 601 00:28:55,413 --> 00:28:58,853 Speaker 14: get pasted. And maybe the young people of today more 602 00:28:58,893 --> 00:29:01,453 Speaker 14: are getting past that I don't know used to be, 603 00:29:02,493 --> 00:29:05,413 Speaker 14: you know, the old rugby culture. They all booze in 604 00:29:05,453 --> 00:29:07,413 Speaker 14: on the on the bus trips, you know away in 605 00:29:07,493 --> 00:29:10,733 Speaker 14: the Rugby trip that you're speak stocking, you know, the 606 00:29:10,813 --> 00:29:13,933 Speaker 14: old you have to get lotter on these buses and 607 00:29:13,973 --> 00:29:16,333 Speaker 14: all the things that are carried on. So are we 608 00:29:16,493 --> 00:29:20,133 Speaker 14: getting past that? Are young people more sensible these days 609 00:29:20,173 --> 00:29:23,413 Speaker 14: and than our generation? 610 00:29:23,533 --> 00:29:23,733 Speaker 9: You know? 611 00:29:23,853 --> 00:29:27,133 Speaker 14: That's But the other thing is that third space. That 612 00:29:27,493 --> 00:29:29,613 Speaker 14: is the idea too, like because I lived in England 613 00:29:29,853 --> 00:29:33,693 Speaker 14: in London and outhers were so tiny. You know if 614 00:29:33,693 --> 00:29:36,453 Speaker 14: you're living there and flatting that you actually do need 615 00:29:36,493 --> 00:29:39,613 Speaker 14: that third space to which is the pub, you know, 616 00:29:39,653 --> 00:29:43,693 Speaker 14: the local pub down on the corner off and it's 617 00:29:43,773 --> 00:29:47,373 Speaker 14: warmer air and more space, and so that is an 618 00:29:47,413 --> 00:29:51,533 Speaker 14: important thing. So in the New Zealan context, our library 619 00:29:51,613 --> 00:29:54,213 Speaker 14: is going to be that third space. Are they morphing 620 00:29:54,333 --> 00:29:58,853 Speaker 14: into that community? Send a point or you know, that's 621 00:29:58,893 --> 00:30:00,653 Speaker 14: an interesting concept as well, isn't it. 622 00:30:01,173 --> 00:30:03,613 Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess what Professor Scott Galloway is saying is 623 00:30:03,773 --> 00:30:08,253 Speaker 2: that young people aren't choosing not to drink because they're 624 00:30:08,373 --> 00:30:11,653 Speaker 2: anti alcohol. They're choosing not to drink because they're getting 625 00:30:11,773 --> 00:30:14,933 Speaker 2: becoming so socially isolated that they're just sitting at home 626 00:30:14,973 --> 00:30:20,133 Speaker 2: and getting absolutely all their needs fills online. But it's 627 00:30:20,173 --> 00:30:26,973 Speaker 2: an unhealthy you know, I guess playing of those emotions 628 00:30:27,013 --> 00:30:31,773 Speaker 2: like social media, the algorithms make them feel like they're 629 00:30:31,773 --> 00:30:35,933 Speaker 2: getting that social need, but they're being gained and you know, 630 00:30:36,173 --> 00:30:39,293 Speaker 2: let's not you know, you get into the romantic side 631 00:30:39,293 --> 00:30:42,253 Speaker 2: of things and how the algorithms are gaming on that. 632 00:30:42,733 --> 00:30:46,173 Speaker 2: So he's he's sort of arguing that, you know, loneliness 633 00:30:46,293 --> 00:30:51,213 Speaker 2: is linked to you know, increase mortality, depression, poorer overall 634 00:30:51,253 --> 00:30:57,573 Speaker 2: health outcomes, and sometimes you know that moderate drinking is 635 00:30:58,053 --> 00:31:02,213 Speaker 2: the payoff for you know, getting out and about and 636 00:31:02,253 --> 00:31:04,853 Speaker 2: getting off the screens and actually talking face to face 637 00:31:05,013 --> 00:31:08,133 Speaker 2: with people. So it's a trade off thing, Dallas. So 638 00:31:08,333 --> 00:31:10,653 Speaker 2: it's not so much that the young people are more 639 00:31:10,693 --> 00:31:13,853 Speaker 2: responsible with drinking now, they're just so gamed by the 640 00:31:13,893 --> 00:31:17,973 Speaker 2: big corporations by the algorithm that they're not doing anything 641 00:31:18,093 --> 00:31:20,053 Speaker 2: but just sitting at home being used. 642 00:31:21,373 --> 00:31:24,493 Speaker 14: But it seems to mean it galways presenting a false alternative. 643 00:31:24,533 --> 00:31:27,013 Speaker 14: It's either you're on in the basement with your cell 644 00:31:27,013 --> 00:31:32,093 Speaker 14: phone or you're drinking. I mean that it's like rul 645 00:31:32,613 --> 00:31:34,293 Speaker 14: alternatives to drinking. 646 00:31:34,773 --> 00:31:38,013 Speaker 3: Yes, but I mean, is that not just removing And look, 647 00:31:38,093 --> 00:31:42,133 Speaker 3: he's made the point in a pretty compelling but definitive way. 648 00:31:42,213 --> 00:31:45,133 Speaker 3: But isn't the point that it any barrier that gets 649 00:31:45,253 --> 00:31:47,573 Speaker 3: removed to get people out of the basement and off 650 00:31:47,573 --> 00:31:50,533 Speaker 3: the screens and socializing for mental health and in this 651 00:31:50,613 --> 00:31:53,293 Speaker 3: case it's alcohol and not to extremes, but it removes 652 00:31:53,333 --> 00:31:55,893 Speaker 3: that barrier, and if that is what it takes, then 653 00:31:55,933 --> 00:31:57,653 Speaker 3: that is arguably a good thing. 654 00:31:59,253 --> 00:32:02,493 Speaker 14: Yeah, but is that that's not a good alternative. I mean, 655 00:32:02,533 --> 00:32:04,533 Speaker 14: there are so many other things young people can be 656 00:32:04,573 --> 00:32:05,973 Speaker 14: doing to meet each other. 657 00:32:06,333 --> 00:32:09,173 Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess it's the path of at least resistance. 658 00:32:09,213 --> 00:32:12,373 Speaker 2: His argument would be, well, I mean, I think going 659 00:32:12,413 --> 00:32:16,133 Speaker 2: to the gym clubs, as I was mentioning before, you know, 660 00:32:17,053 --> 00:32:19,293 Speaker 2: volunteer work or anything that they could get out in 661 00:32:19,333 --> 00:32:22,093 Speaker 2: the community and spend time with people would be fantastic 662 00:32:22,173 --> 00:32:24,493 Speaker 2: and it would do a lot of the good that 663 00:32:24,533 --> 00:32:28,373 Speaker 2: he claims that alcohol does. But he's saying that without 664 00:32:28,373 --> 00:32:32,173 Speaker 2: the social lubricant of alcohol, people are just too socially 665 00:32:32,173 --> 00:32:35,733 Speaker 2: anxious to make those connections. So whilst you admit that 666 00:32:35,773 --> 00:32:38,693 Speaker 2: the alcohol is bad and that maybe we want the 667 00:32:38,693 --> 00:32:42,133 Speaker 2: perfect world where everyone's joining a choir or you know, 668 00:32:42,933 --> 00:32:46,773 Speaker 2: going on big, long, meaningful tramps with their friends, what 669 00:32:46,813 --> 00:32:49,773 Speaker 2: they're doing is nothing. What they're doing is just as 670 00:32:49,813 --> 00:32:52,973 Speaker 2: someone as this mum texting before, I would rather I 671 00:32:53,013 --> 00:32:56,493 Speaker 2: was picking up my son rotten than watching him rotten 672 00:32:56,573 --> 00:33:01,773 Speaker 2: his bedroom.

Mad Heathen Tyler Adams afternoons news talks. 684 00:33:29,253 --> 00:33:33,173 Speaker 2: The'd be it is twelve to two Vanessa, welcome to 685 00:33:33,173 --> 00:33:35,693 Speaker 2: the show. Your thoughts on alcohol? 686 00:33:37,613 --> 00:33:38,293 Speaker 16: Yes, Ciota. 687 00:33:38,573 --> 00:33:43,533 Speaker 17: So I suppose I've got first hand experience with our 688 00:33:43,573 --> 00:33:48,053 Speaker 17: teenagers from New Zealand. I was the healthy and Technology 689 00:33:48,693 --> 00:33:51,093 Speaker 17: teacher to five hundred and twenty boys at the number 690 00:33:51,093 --> 00:33:56,093 Speaker 17: one Boys school in New Zealand from two thousand and 691 00:33:57,453 --> 00:34:02,853 Speaker 17: sixteen to twenty nineteen. So I was really giving them 692 00:34:02,853 --> 00:34:07,133 Speaker 17: the education about the drugs and alcohol, but also asking 693 00:34:07,213 --> 00:34:12,053 Speaker 17: them exactly what was going on in their lives. And 694 00:34:12,333 --> 00:34:16,093 Speaker 17: you know, the really sad fact that I noticed was 695 00:34:16,133 --> 00:34:19,893 Speaker 17: the sense of family just does not exist in New 696 00:34:19,973 --> 00:34:22,413 Speaker 17: Zealand anymore. So when I would say to my students, 697 00:34:22,693 --> 00:34:25,333 Speaker 17: I'd like you to go home and you know, discuss 698 00:34:25,413 --> 00:34:27,813 Speaker 17: this with the family at the dinner table. But all 699 00:34:27,853 --> 00:34:29,893 Speaker 17: look at me blankly and say, what do you mean 700 00:34:29,973 --> 00:34:33,413 Speaker 17: this We don't have at dinner table because, you know, 701 00:34:33,493 --> 00:34:37,453 Speaker 17: because because the cost of living is so exorbitantly expensive 702 00:34:37,613 --> 00:34:41,812 Speaker 17: in New Zealand. You know, families are leaving at seven 703 00:34:41,813 --> 00:34:43,973 Speaker 17: o'clock in the morning to try and get to work. 704 00:34:44,253 --> 00:34:45,373 Speaker 17: They're coming home late. 705 00:34:46,493 --> 00:34:46,652 Speaker 18: You know. 706 00:34:46,693 --> 00:34:48,172 Speaker 17: I used to say to them, you know, what are 707 00:34:48,213 --> 00:34:51,453 Speaker 17: your parents doing during the dinner time, during dinner time 708 00:34:52,013 --> 00:34:54,293 Speaker 17: and they said, oh, well, they're just on their iPads 709 00:34:54,373 --> 00:34:56,453 Speaker 17: and that. You know, the kids just get their dinner 710 00:34:56,533 --> 00:35:00,173 Speaker 17: and then they just go to their rooms. So unfortunately, 711 00:35:00,293 --> 00:35:04,013 Speaker 17: due to the mandates with the with what the labor 712 00:35:04,053 --> 00:35:07,333 Speaker 17: government did to all of our children, you know, the 713 00:35:07,413 --> 00:35:10,933 Speaker 17: average prescription and now that a doctor is prescribing for 714 00:35:10,973 --> 00:35:15,133 Speaker 17: our teenagers as PTSD and anxiety. You know, I've got 715 00:35:15,213 --> 00:35:18,613 Speaker 17: students that literally get up in class, they walk out. 716 00:35:19,093 --> 00:35:19,293 Speaker 10: You know. 717 00:35:19,373 --> 00:35:22,413 Speaker 17: After finishing at that school, I went on to being 718 00:35:22,733 --> 00:35:25,573 Speaker 17: a special needs teacher for three years and then I 719 00:35:25,613 --> 00:35:29,652 Speaker 17: worked at All Girls' Catholic School for two years. So 720 00:35:29,693 --> 00:35:37,212 Speaker 17: I've had significant experience with our teenagers and you know, 721 00:35:37,693 --> 00:35:42,653 Speaker 17: I'm now making significant impact for the teenagers of New Zealand. 722 00:35:42,693 --> 00:35:46,253 Speaker 17: I'm actually shaking the foundations of the New Zealand education 723 00:35:46,733 --> 00:35:50,013 Speaker 17: system as we speak, with setting up a global corporation 724 00:35:50,173 --> 00:35:53,333 Speaker 17: for a young fifteen year old to collaborate with special 725 00:35:53,373 --> 00:35:57,133 Speaker 17: needs to work Monday to Thursday on ten till three 726 00:35:57,453 --> 00:36:00,253 Speaker 17: and then on Friday. It's going to be compulsory charity. 727 00:36:00,773 --> 00:36:03,692 Speaker 17: So the charity that that global corporation I'm setting up 728 00:36:04,173 --> 00:36:10,573 Speaker 17: is for parental alienation PTSD. When in suicide prevention, I'm 729 00:36:10,613 --> 00:36:14,013 Speaker 17: also setting up a charity for special needs children and 730 00:36:14,093 --> 00:36:18,093 Speaker 17: our family and their families because there's a special needs teacher, 731 00:36:18,613 --> 00:36:21,893 Speaker 17: you know, especially when I got locked down, I had 732 00:36:21,893 --> 00:36:24,933 Speaker 17: the highest needs class within the school. 733 00:36:25,133 --> 00:36:27,533 Speaker 2: You know, So when you when you talk about the 734 00:36:27,893 --> 00:36:31,253 Speaker 2: you know, you say that there's that that's that's the 735 00:36:31,293 --> 00:36:34,133 Speaker 2: cost of living crisis. But then you're you're saying that 736 00:36:34,173 --> 00:36:37,333 Speaker 2: when when they get home, the parents are on the 737 00:36:37,413 --> 00:36:40,613 Speaker 2: phone or on their screens. So that's not so much 738 00:36:40,693 --> 00:36:42,213 Speaker 2: the hours of working if you've got because I mean, 739 00:36:42,253 --> 00:36:44,453 Speaker 2: if you can spend half an hour of quality time 740 00:36:44,613 --> 00:36:47,773 Speaker 2: with kids, then isn't isn't isn't the problem that the 741 00:36:47,853 --> 00:36:49,933 Speaker 2: kids are on the devices, the parents on the devices 742 00:36:49,933 --> 00:36:51,813 Speaker 2: and whatever time that they have, Because I mean people 743 00:36:51,853 --> 00:36:56,413 Speaker 2: have always worked long hours.

It's because you know, especially based in 748 00:37:08,133 --> 00:37:11,893 Speaker 17: ORC you know, I used to have students that hadn't 749 00:37:11,933 --> 00:37:15,693 Speaker 17: even said good morning to their mum and dad.

But in 828 00:40:36,533 --> 00:40:38,693 Speaker 6: my view, the worst thing that's happened to young people 829 00:40:38,813 --> 00:40:41,172 Speaker 6: is the anti alcohol movement. I've had Huberman on, who 830 00:40:41,173 --> 00:40:43,653 Speaker 6: I'm a big fan of, an antiaon and my point 831 00:40:43,853 --> 00:40:45,692 Speaker 6: is that the risk to your twenty five year old 832 00:40:45,693 --> 00:40:49,653 Speaker 6: liver are risk are dwarf by the risk of social 833 00:40:49,733 --> 00:40:53,253 Speaker 6: isolation in some Think of all the amazing relationships you've 834 00:40:53,253 --> 00:40:56,212 Speaker 6: had in your life, and be honest, did alcohol play 835 00:40:56,213 --> 00:40:59,053 Speaker 6: a role in some? Get out, drink more and make 836 00:40:59,093 --> 00:41:01,093 Speaker 6: a series of bad decisions that might payoff. 837 00:41:02,773 --> 00:41:05,333 Speaker 3: So obviously a good reaction there from Bill Maya and 838 00:41:05,373 --> 00:41:07,813 Speaker 3: the audience, But that's what we're talking about. The anti 839 00:41:07,853 --> 00:41:10,933 Speaker 3: alcohol movement. Has it done more harm than good, particularly 840 00:41:11,013 --> 00:41:12,013 Speaker 3: for younger people. 841 00:41:12,293 --> 00:41:14,973 Speaker 2: Young people. As he goes on to say, aren't drinking 842 00:41:15,053 --> 00:41:18,613 Speaker 2: less because they suddenly become wiser. They're drinking less because 843 00:41:22,053 --> 00:41:25,133 Speaker 2: just change the page on this quote. They're lonelier, they're 844 00:41:25,173 --> 00:41:29,773 Speaker 2: more anxious, and they're socializing through screens instead of being 845 00:41:29,893 --> 00:41:32,293 Speaker 2: out and about face to face. 846 00:41:32,453 --> 00:41:34,133 Speaker 3: Yeah, so what do you reckon about this? I on 847 00:41:34,133 --> 00:41:36,933 Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty ten eighty. We've had a truckload 848 00:41:36,933 --> 00:41:40,093 Speaker 3: of texts coming through On nine two ninety two as well. 849 00:41:40,693 --> 00:41:43,333 Speaker 2: This text says, not sure who's not drinking, but I'm 850 00:41:43,373 --> 00:41:48,373 Speaker 2: a high school teacher and the kids are absolutely still partying. Yeah. 851 00:41:48,413 --> 00:41:50,973 Speaker 2: This text says, guys, I worked for a large airline 852 00:41:51,013 --> 00:41:53,933 Speaker 2: in Europe for years. When U night stopped somewhere, the 853 00:41:54,013 --> 00:41:56,373 Speaker 2: crew would have some drinks on the way to the hotel, 854 00:41:56,413 --> 00:41:58,293 Speaker 2: and by the time you got there, everyone was chatting 855 00:41:58,373 --> 00:42:01,893 Speaker 2: and would arrange activities for the time away. Airline eventually 856 00:42:01,893 --> 00:42:03,653 Speaker 2: band drinks on the bus due to health and safety, 857 00:42:03,693 --> 00:42:05,973 Speaker 2: so people didn't gell the same way and often would 858 00:42:05,973 --> 00:42:08,732 Speaker 2: disappear to the hotel room for the duration. If there 859 00:42:08,773 --> 00:42:13,133 Speaker 2: was an on average six crew suicides and hotels per year. Wow, 860 00:42:13,173 --> 00:42:16,093 Speaker 2: I truly believe the withdrawal of those drinks directly contributed 861 00:42:16,133 --> 00:42:19,893 Speaker 2: to the isolation. Many of the younger crew foult. It's 862 00:42:19,973 --> 00:42:23,373 Speaker 2: kind of a catch twenty two, isn't it. So you 863 00:42:23,493 --> 00:42:28,813 Speaker 2: need the alcohol to get up the Dutch courage to 864 00:42:28,853 --> 00:42:31,453 Speaker 2: talk to people, to plan to do other things. But 865 00:42:31,533 --> 00:42:34,413 Speaker 2: then you know you can get absolutely steamed, and terrible 866 00:42:34,413 --> 00:42:35,013 Speaker 2: things can happen. 867 00:42:35,093 --> 00:42:36,413 Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, both extreme. 868 00:42:36,493 --> 00:42:38,573 Speaker 2: I mean idea. It wouldn't be great if we live 869 00:42:38,573 --> 00:42:40,893 Speaker 2: in a world where everyone felt confident to just talk 870 00:42:40,933 --> 00:42:43,773 Speaker 2: to each other, yeah, without having to get steamed, right, 871 00:42:43,853 --> 00:42:45,533 Speaker 2: if only? But I think that's a part of it. 872 00:42:45,573 --> 00:42:47,893 Speaker 3: And look, I'm speaking from personal experience here, and maybe 873 00:42:47,933 --> 00:42:49,973 Speaker 3: this gets a little bit easier as you get older. 874 00:42:49,973 --> 00:42:52,933 Speaker 3: I think it airs to me, but in the early years, 875 00:42:52,933 --> 00:42:56,413 Speaker 3: and it still happens from time to time. If I'm 876 00:42:57,213 --> 00:42:59,493 Speaker 3: thinking about something that hasn't gone right and it's really 877 00:42:59,493 --> 00:43:01,893 Speaker 3: playing up in my mind and then someone says, hey, 878 00:43:01,933 --> 00:43:04,893 Speaker 3: do you want to come out and hang out and 879 00:43:04,933 --> 00:43:07,813 Speaker 3: we can have a beer, that is music to my ears, 880 00:43:07,853 --> 00:43:11,133 Speaker 3: because I don't think I can put some of that 881 00:43:11,293 --> 00:43:15,133 Speaker 3: stuff to beard. Yes I can do now. But quite 882 00:43:15,173 --> 00:43:17,493 Speaker 3: often when there's a beer involved or a weed drink, 883 00:43:17,493 --> 00:43:19,853 Speaker 3: and you're sitting with a friend and you're outdoors in 884 00:43:19,893 --> 00:43:21,973 Speaker 3: a beer guard and you get some vitamin D. That 885 00:43:22,093 --> 00:43:25,453 Speaker 3: ability just to have a sip of beer to take 886 00:43:25,533 --> 00:43:28,933 Speaker 3: your brain out of the misery that it's currently in 887 00:43:29,093 --> 00:43:32,093 Speaker 3: because you're thinking too much about something that's gone wrong. 888 00:43:32,533 --> 00:43:36,013 Speaker 3: That ability to distract for just a short while, I 889 00:43:36,053 --> 00:43:38,293 Speaker 3: think is incredibly helpful for a lot of people. Certainly 890 00:43:38,373 --> 00:43:40,893 Speaker 3: has been for me to say, I'm just gonna stop 891 00:43:41,173 --> 00:43:42,893 Speaker 3: dwelling on this for the time being. I'm going to 892 00:43:42,973 --> 00:43:45,053 Speaker 3: have a beer with my mate and talk about things 893 00:43:45,053 --> 00:43:47,013 Speaker 3: that are good for my mental well being. That can 894 00:43:47,053 --> 00:43:48,973 Speaker 3: be an incredibly helpful tool for a lot of people. 895 00:43:49,093 --> 00:43:52,053 Speaker 2: What if you follow that one beer, because what's the saying, 896 00:43:52,693 --> 00:43:54,533 Speaker 2: You have a drink and the drink has you. Yeah, 897 00:43:54,853 --> 00:43:57,893 Speaker 2: so you have that one drink to calm down and 898 00:43:58,133 --> 00:43:59,772 Speaker 2: make yourself feel better and have a bit of a chat. 899 00:43:59,853 --> 00:44:01,292 Speaker 2: Then that makes you want have another, and then another 900 00:44:01,293 --> 00:44:03,013 Speaker 2: another another, and another. No no no no no no 901 00:44:03,053 --> 00:44:06,973 Speaker 2: no no no no no. You wake up the next morning, goo, whoa, 902 00:44:07,733 --> 00:44:11,133 Speaker 2: what happened? Was just meeting for a nice drenk Oh, 903 00:44:11,173 --> 00:44:13,652 Speaker 2: my goodness, And then in the shower remembering all the 904 00:44:13,693 --> 00:44:16,493 Speaker 2: stupid things you see going ah, trying to block out 905 00:44:16,493 --> 00:44:19,893 Speaker 2: your thoughts and then you spend Saturday full of self 906 00:44:19,893 --> 00:44:21,453 Speaker 2: hatred and anxiety. 907 00:44:21,573 --> 00:44:22,053 Speaker 4: You bang on. 908 00:44:22,173 --> 00:44:23,772 Speaker 3: You definitely don't want to do that because that will 909 00:44:23,773 --> 00:44:24,973 Speaker 3: make things far worse. 910 00:44:26,053 --> 00:44:28,732 Speaker 2: And I think the professor Scott Galloway's putting it that way. 911 00:44:28,893 --> 00:44:30,652 Speaker 2: You know that the worst thing that's happened to young 912 00:44:30,693 --> 00:44:34,172 Speaker 2: people is the anti alcohol movement. He's pushing the point 913 00:44:34,213 --> 00:44:36,853 Speaker 2: hard to get the conversation gown down. But I guess 914 00:44:36,893 --> 00:44:38,453 Speaker 2: what you if you were going to put it in 915 00:44:38,493 --> 00:44:42,093 Speaker 2: a more mild way, it would be something like mild 916 00:44:42,093 --> 00:44:45,253 Speaker 2: to moderate at alcohol consumption can help reduce social anxiety, 917 00:44:45,373 --> 00:44:48,213 Speaker 2: especially for young adults who are still learning to navigate, 918 00:44:48,613 --> 00:44:51,973 Speaker 2: you know, and you know talking to people, socialization, you know, 919 00:44:52,013 --> 00:44:56,373 Speaker 2: interpersonal dynamics or whatever, and that the alcohol access a 920 00:44:56,373 --> 00:45:00,133 Speaker 2: catalyst for forming friendships, romantic relationships, professional networks and stuff 921 00:45:00,173 --> 00:45:03,333 Speaker 2: that because they're so awkward, they just would never do. 922 00:45:04,293 --> 00:45:08,893 Speaker 2: So he's saying that there is obviously a terribly terrible 923 00:45:08,933 --> 00:45:13,333 Speaker 2: downside to alcohol, but he's in his opinion, it's you know, 924 00:45:13,453 --> 00:45:19,133 Speaker 2: the the increased mortality, depression, and poorer healthcome outcomes from 925 00:45:19,173 --> 00:45:24,333 Speaker 2: loneliness worse than the moderate than the damage from moderate 926 00:45:24,413 --> 00:45:26,893 Speaker 2: drinking in your twenties. Yeah, for example, but if he 927 00:45:26,893 --> 00:45:29,133 Speaker 2: talks about the Human podcast and if you want to 928 00:45:29,333 --> 00:45:33,333 Speaker 2: question your drinking, listen to Hubanman's podcast on alcohol.

I think a couple of your callers sort of 960 00:46:57,573 --> 00:47:00,253 Speaker 7: worded it really well, is like we all determine the 961 00:47:00,293 --> 00:47:04,773 Speaker 7: relationship we have with alcohol, and unfortunately, in the world today, 962 00:47:04,853 --> 00:47:07,293 Speaker 7: we're able to hold up really quickly all the things 963 00:47:07,373 --> 00:47:09,293 Speaker 7: we get wrong, not just with alcohol but with all 964 00:47:09,333 --> 00:47:12,213 Speaker 7: sorts of things, and those things are the ones that 965 00:47:12,293 --> 00:47:15,613 Speaker 7: get headlines and coverage and create a huge amount of conversation. 966 00:47:15,693 --> 00:47:18,013 Speaker 7: And we all sort of, you know, look at all 967 00:47:18,053 --> 00:47:20,133 Speaker 7: the things we shouldn't be doing. But actually, you know, 968 00:47:20,173 --> 00:47:22,893 Speaker 7: there's a number of people out there who are doing 969 00:47:22,893 --> 00:47:25,173 Speaker 7: it really really well, you know, like the majority, I 970 00:47:25,173 --> 00:47:30,893 Speaker 7: would say, and they use alcohol and connection and socializing 971 00:47:31,013 --> 00:47:33,973 Speaker 7: is a great opportunity to catch up with people, talk 972 00:47:34,093 --> 00:47:38,133 Speaker 7: do a bit of problem solving and just have a 973 00:47:38,133 --> 00:47:40,413 Speaker 7: couple of drinks and then they bop off and they 974 00:47:40,413 --> 00:47:43,333 Speaker 7: go back to the normal life. Our female counterparts do 975 00:47:43,373 --> 00:47:47,973 Speaker 7: it really, really well. They fantasticket staying in connection with 976 00:47:48,053 --> 00:47:50,853 Speaker 7: their with their girlfriends. They make a real effort, they 977 00:47:50,893 --> 00:47:53,013 Speaker 7: catch up, they have a whine, they have a yarn, 978 00:47:53,053 --> 00:47:54,973 Speaker 7: They do a heap of problem solving, They talk about 979 00:47:54,973 --> 00:47:59,013 Speaker 7: big things in life really really quickly. And while Professor 980 00:47:59,053 --> 00:48:02,493 Speaker 7: Galloway gave that example around going to a morgue and 981 00:48:02,653 --> 00:48:05,293 Speaker 7: you know, seeing how many of the people who are 982 00:48:05,293 --> 00:48:07,773 Speaker 7: in the mall, will we men, the flip side of 983 00:48:07,773 --> 00:48:09,933 Speaker 7: that is that that it's not females, even though they 984 00:48:09,973 --> 00:48:13,692 Speaker 7: have very similar incidents of depression and anxiety. They don't 985 00:48:13,693 --> 00:48:16,333 Speaker 7: take his dress to reaction. Their statistics are not as bad, 986 00:48:16,693 --> 00:48:19,013 Speaker 7: but they are still having a wine and catching up 987 00:48:19,013 --> 00:48:21,253 Speaker 7: with your girlfriends and being a little bit social and 988 00:48:21,293 --> 00:48:23,133 Speaker 7: sort of doing it okay. So I think it's really 989 00:48:23,133 --> 00:48:26,413 Speaker 7: important to be run to determine the relations they have. 990 00:48:26,493 --> 00:48:28,373 Speaker 7: And as you said, Matt, look if you don't like 991 00:48:28,413 --> 00:48:30,133 Speaker 7: who you are when you're drinking, then don't drink. If 992 00:48:30,173 --> 00:48:32,133 Speaker 7: you've got a friend who you think it's to the 993 00:48:32,133 --> 00:48:34,573 Speaker 7: detriment of them to drink, then maybe encourage them not 994 00:48:34,613 --> 00:48:38,893 Speaker 7: to drink or to have a half havebit, I think, 995 00:48:39,093 --> 00:48:41,613 Speaker 7: you know, on the other side of it, like these 996 00:48:41,613 --> 00:48:44,453 Speaker 7: are the things we don't talk about. We've matured hugely. 997 00:48:44,533 --> 00:48:46,053 Speaker 7: Like we will go out to the pub now and 998 00:48:46,093 --> 00:48:47,893 Speaker 7: if one of your mates is having a water or 999 00:48:47,893 --> 00:48:50,813 Speaker 7: a lemonade or a zero strength, you know, we don't 1000 00:48:50,813 --> 00:48:53,053 Speaker 7: give them any banter. I certainly don't. I think that's 1001 00:48:53,333 --> 00:48:55,373 Speaker 7: hugely acceptable and I'm just happy to see the guy 1002 00:48:55,413 --> 00:48:56,973 Speaker 7: and have a yarn, you know. And I think most 1003 00:48:56,973 --> 00:49:00,573 Speaker 7: people are like that, Whereas sometimes we you know, we 1004 00:49:00,733 --> 00:49:02,732 Speaker 7: like to highlight all the bad stuff, but I think 1005 00:49:02,733 --> 00:49:04,733 Speaker 7: we need to do a job around highlighting all the 1006 00:49:04,773 --> 00:49:06,813 Speaker 7: good stuff as well. And it's awesome to make any 1007 00:49:06,853 --> 00:49:09,093 Speaker 7: fit to catch up with your mates. And someone has 1008 00:49:09,093 --> 00:49:11,373 Speaker 7: a bear and someone has eliminade, then then who cares? 1009 00:49:11,373 --> 00:49:13,293 Speaker 7: You know, Like I think it's a great thing that 1010 00:49:14,013 --> 00:49:16,813 Speaker 7: it's really hard as a as a as you go 1011 00:49:16,893 --> 00:49:19,333 Speaker 7: through life stages to stay connected with the people that 1012 00:49:19,413 --> 00:49:22,493 Speaker 7: mean a lot to you. So anyone in any way, 1013 00:49:22,493 --> 00:49:25,453 Speaker 7: shape or form that's doing that, you know, whether it's 1014 00:49:25,453 --> 00:49:27,172 Speaker 7: at the pub, at the rugby club at the cricket club, 1015 00:49:27,213 --> 00:49:29,493 Speaker 7: whether it's going to a sports event together, whether it's 1016 00:49:29,493 --> 00:49:33,093 Speaker 7: going to a show together, a festival like whatever. That's 1017 00:49:33,133 --> 00:49:37,172 Speaker 7: good stuff. That's you know, that's where we learn huge 1018 00:49:37,173 --> 00:49:39,853 Speaker 7: amount of life skills and interaction. And I believe a 1019 00:49:39,893 --> 00:49:42,053 Speaker 7: lot in what mister Galloway's saying. We are becoming about 1020 00:49:42,093 --> 00:49:44,573 Speaker 7: asocial and about asexual and we're not able to take 1021 00:49:45,253 --> 00:49:48,613 Speaker 7: prompts and triggers off people anymore and creating these one 1022 00:49:48,693 --> 00:49:50,773 Speaker 7: ray relationships in the digital world that don't sort of 1023 00:49:50,853 --> 00:49:54,253 Speaker 7: challenge us or or feedback anythink. And I think we 1024 00:49:54,373 --> 00:49:56,533 Speaker 7: just need to be really careful. What's that in New 1025 00:49:56,613 --> 00:50:00,253 Speaker 7: Zealand because his stuff's American, But often the trends do 1026 00:50:00,413 --> 00:50:02,573 Speaker 7: trickle down to different different parts of the world. But 1027 00:50:02,613 --> 00:50:04,853 Speaker 7: maybe we can get ahead of it and learn from 1028 00:50:05,013 --> 00:50:07,373 Speaker 7: some of those bigger markets and not let that be 1029 00:50:07,813 --> 00:50:10,173 Speaker 7: quite as bad down here, even though you know the 1030 00:50:10,533 --> 00:50:12,613 Speaker 7: rese elements of that here absolutely. 1031 00:50:12,653 --> 00:50:14,653 Speaker 2: Now do you think you know when we talk the 1032 00:50:14,693 --> 00:50:17,573 Speaker 2: difference between male and female friendships, and you know, as 1033 00:50:17,573 --> 00:50:20,573 Speaker 2: it plays out of a life, you know, men will 1034 00:50:20,613 --> 00:50:23,373 Speaker 2: often just drift apart. They'll have friends and they won't 1035 00:50:23,413 --> 00:50:25,413 Speaker 2: put the effort in do you think there's a thing 1036 00:50:25,493 --> 00:50:29,813 Speaker 2: with men where we feel like we can invite our 1037 00:50:29,893 --> 00:50:32,293 Speaker 2: mates out for a drink and that kind of it's 1038 00:50:32,373 --> 00:50:34,733 Speaker 2: not necessarily about the drink, but we don't really have 1039 00:50:34,813 --> 00:50:38,533 Speaker 2: another way to, you know, invite them out that doesn't 1040 00:50:38,533 --> 00:50:43,133 Speaker 2: seem weird culturally. So for example, my partner's always going 1041 00:50:43,133 --> 00:50:46,453 Speaker 2: out for coffees with her girlfriends and they'll just get 1042 00:50:46,493 --> 00:50:49,893 Speaker 2: together to do things. But we're like I was saying 1043 00:50:49,893 --> 00:50:51,413 Speaker 2: to Tyler, I'm not sure if this was off here 1044 00:50:51,533 --> 00:50:54,253 Speaker 2: or on you, but it would be odd if I 1045 00:50:54,253 --> 00:50:56,333 Speaker 2: texted Tyler on the weekend and said, hey, mates, just 1046 00:50:56,413 --> 00:50:58,973 Speaker 2: want to go for a walk, He'd be like, what's 1047 00:50:59,013 --> 00:50:59,373 Speaker 2: wrong with you? 1048 00:50:59,413 --> 00:50:59,613 Speaker 6: Mate? 1049 00:50:59,653 --> 00:51:01,733 Speaker 2: But if I texted him said you want to go 1050 00:51:01,733 --> 00:51:04,813 Speaker 2: for a beer, it's kind of more socially acceptable. But 1051 00:51:04,893 --> 00:51:06,813 Speaker 2: really the connection is what you're after. Do you kind 1052 00:51:06,813 --> 00:51:08,493 Speaker 2: of get what I'm saying, Robert. 1053 00:51:09,173 --> 00:51:11,453 Speaker 7: Yeah, I know that's what you're saying. And always say 1054 00:51:11,613 --> 00:51:13,893 Speaker 7: like the old school is not the bad school, but 1055 00:51:13,973 --> 00:51:15,773 Speaker 7: we just need to find the modern version of it. 1056 00:51:15,853 --> 00:51:18,853 Speaker 7: So like, Okay, we're not necessarily going to be filling 1057 00:51:18,893 --> 00:51:20,893 Speaker 7: the pubs and clubs or sports clubs like we used to, 1058 00:51:21,733 --> 00:51:23,773 Speaker 7: but we need to replace it with something and what 1059 00:51:23,853 --> 00:51:25,893 Speaker 7: is the modern version of it? And like you know, 1060 00:51:25,933 --> 00:51:28,293 Speaker 7: today there is all sorts of things that go on, 1061 00:51:28,373 --> 00:51:30,733 Speaker 7: like there still can be connection in the digital world. 1062 00:51:30,773 --> 00:51:34,933 Speaker 7: We're seeing you know this, you know, near pandemic called 1063 00:51:35,013 --> 00:51:36,732 Speaker 7: running and a lot of young people are actually joining 1064 00:51:36,773 --> 00:51:39,053 Speaker 7: rugby running clubs not just to be fit and healthy, 1065 00:51:39,133 --> 00:51:41,813 Speaker 7: but for the social element, you know, like they're there 1066 00:51:41,853 --> 00:51:44,053 Speaker 7: because that's the way to mix with girls. We need 1067 00:51:44,093 --> 00:51:46,732 Speaker 7: to be really careful about the remote remote working thing 1068 00:51:46,853 --> 00:51:49,813 Speaker 7: like that is absolutely where you cut your teeth socially, 1069 00:51:49,973 --> 00:51:52,812 Speaker 7: where you interact with females, where you interact with males, 1070 00:51:52,853 --> 00:51:55,853 Speaker 7: where you learn social cues, where you learn to interact 1071 00:51:55,893 --> 00:51:58,053 Speaker 7: with all different sorts of people, Like I think those 1072 00:51:58,053 --> 00:52:01,533 Speaker 7: things are really really relevant. So like what's replacing those 1073 00:52:01,613 --> 00:52:03,453 Speaker 7: you know what? We need to make sure that we're 1074 00:52:04,293 --> 00:52:06,213 Speaker 7: just not taking those things away and not replacing them 1075 00:52:06,253 --> 00:52:09,013 Speaker 7: with anything. And I hope Matt, like example I just 1076 00:52:09,053 --> 00:52:11,013 Speaker 7: gave when we said, you know, we can go to 1077 00:52:11,013 --> 00:52:13,413 Speaker 7: the pub these days and people can drink, not drink, 1078 00:52:13,533 --> 00:52:15,253 Speaker 7: or do whatever they want, and we do see this 1079 00:52:15,373 --> 00:52:19,373 Speaker 7: socially acceptable hopefully, you know, if you said, hey, Tyler, 1080 00:52:19,373 --> 00:52:21,133 Speaker 7: do you want to walk into work together, or do 1081 00:52:21,173 --> 00:52:23,212 Speaker 7: you want to catch up for a coffee after work, 1082 00:52:23,333 --> 00:52:26,213 Speaker 7: or or any of those suggestions you just made. Hopefully 1083 00:52:26,253 --> 00:52:29,773 Speaker 7: over time that actually does become socially exceedsible and that 1084 00:52:29,893 --> 00:52:32,053 Speaker 7: is an okay thing to do. And I think, and 1085 00:52:32,653 --> 00:52:34,813 Speaker 7: probably not quite to the same degree with some of 1086 00:52:34,853 --> 00:52:36,733 Speaker 7: the other things we've discussed, I think that is happening 1087 00:52:36,773 --> 00:52:40,173 Speaker 7: a little bit. Like I certainly think young men are amazing. 1088 00:52:40,453 --> 00:52:43,013 Speaker 7: They have a lot better and more mature than I 1089 00:52:43,093 --> 00:52:44,613 Speaker 7: was at the same age, and they're actually really up 1090 00:52:44,653 --> 00:52:47,733 Speaker 7: for looking after their mates. They're really up for tough conversations. 1091 00:52:48,333 --> 00:52:50,493 Speaker 7: I don't know. You've got a young son, Matt and 1092 00:52:50,533 --> 00:52:53,093 Speaker 7: Heath the same as well, but the miles again where 1093 00:52:53,093 --> 00:52:55,573 Speaker 7: I was as a teenager, and they are forever looking 1094 00:52:55,573 --> 00:53:00,173 Speaker 7: out for each other and they than I was. Yeah, totally, 1095 00:53:00,253 --> 00:53:03,333 Speaker 7: so again we thought about all the crisis with young men, 1096 00:53:03,373 --> 00:53:04,652 Speaker 7: they're actually doing awesome. 1097 00:53:04,933 --> 00:53:07,413 Speaker 2: The far more which more than my me and my 1098 00:53:07,453 --> 00:53:09,893 Speaker 2: friends are now my friends and I are whichever I'm 1099 00:53:09,933 --> 00:53:11,493 Speaker 2: supposed to say that. I always get pnished on the text 1100 00:53:11,493 --> 00:53:14,573 Speaker 2: machine for my poor grammar, but you know, maybe I'm 1101 00:53:14,653 --> 00:53:18,893 Speaker 2: punishing South Islander from Otago. But when I wasn't drinking, 1102 00:53:19,253 --> 00:53:21,652 Speaker 2: I was, you know, I'd get a zero alcohol beer 1103 00:53:21,693 --> 00:53:23,573 Speaker 2: and it would be such a drama with my friends 1104 00:53:23,973 --> 00:53:26,093 Speaker 2: that what I ended up doing is going up to 1105 00:53:26,133 --> 00:53:28,533 Speaker 2: the bar and having to buy all the rounds just 1106 00:53:28,613 --> 00:53:31,973 Speaker 2: so I was because it become, you know, like, you 1107 00:53:32,013 --> 00:53:33,213 Speaker 2: don't want to drink, and they bring it to the 1108 00:53:33,213 --> 00:53:35,573 Speaker 2: table and then someone say who's is the zero and 1109 00:53:35,613 --> 00:53:37,293 Speaker 2: you go me and then everyone's like, oh, you're not, 1110 00:53:37,333 --> 00:53:39,533 Speaker 2: You're not drinking, and then they's gone on. They'll sort 1111 00:53:39,573 --> 00:53:41,613 Speaker 2: of take it as a judgment that you're not drinking, 1112 00:53:41,653 --> 00:53:43,933 Speaker 2: and then they start questioning. The whole thing becomes around 1113 00:53:44,373 --> 00:53:47,813 Speaker 2: you're not drinking. Very expensive for me when I was 1114 00:53:47,813 --> 00:53:51,772 Speaker 2: buying every round just to hide my zerocohol beers in there. 1115 00:53:51,853 --> 00:53:54,413 Speaker 2: So I hope people, I hope that's true what you're saying, 1116 00:53:54,413 --> 00:53:59,253 Speaker 2: that that people are accepting that, because because what do 1117 00:53:59,253 --> 00:54:02,093 Speaker 2: you really care what someone's ambiting around you? You know, 1118 00:54:02,453 --> 00:54:03,613 Speaker 2: isn't it that they're there with you? 1119 00:54:04,813 --> 00:54:07,093 Speaker 7: I think so, And I obviously i'm you know, it's 1120 00:54:07,653 --> 00:54:09,573 Speaker 7: it's the the field or work I'm in, and we 1121 00:54:09,653 --> 00:54:12,133 Speaker 7: look at that stuff and it absolutely is changing. Like 1122 00:54:12,333 --> 00:54:13,692 Speaker 7: I think we are getting to have a lot more 1123 00:54:13,693 --> 00:54:16,013 Speaker 7: mature with it, and you know, we need to replace 1124 00:54:17,293 --> 00:54:19,733 Speaker 7: you know, some of these settings that just were what 1125 00:54:19,813 --> 00:54:21,133 Speaker 7: they used to be. You know, there's a lot of 1126 00:54:21,173 --> 00:54:24,453 Speaker 7: reasons some of the sports clubs are not as well 1127 00:54:24,493 --> 00:54:26,613 Speaker 7: as they used to be. There's you know, the these 1128 00:54:26,653 --> 00:54:30,893 Speaker 7: are real positive aspect to you know, the increased consideration 1129 00:54:30,973 --> 00:54:33,853 Speaker 7: for drink driving, but you know, the rareity is that 1130 00:54:33,893 --> 00:54:35,613 Speaker 7: means people don't come together as much. So what are 1131 00:54:35,613 --> 00:54:38,493 Speaker 7: we replacement with? What are we doing? You know, COVID's 1132 00:54:38,533 --> 00:54:40,853 Speaker 7: meant a lot of us have become chefs and great 1133 00:54:41,693 --> 00:54:43,853 Speaker 7: entertainers and posts at home. Well that's a really good thing, 1134 00:54:43,893 --> 00:54:45,813 Speaker 7: you know, like that having people around to your place 1135 00:54:45,853 --> 00:54:48,652 Speaker 7: and hosting them. That's awesome. But obviously that's a bit 1136 00:54:48,653 --> 00:54:52,013 Speaker 7: harder on maybe some of the some of the normal 1137 00:54:52,013 --> 00:54:54,853 Speaker 7: hospitality establishments. So I was just kind of figuring out 1138 00:54:54,893 --> 00:54:57,933 Speaker 7: what the new normal is. And yet there'll be you know, 1139 00:54:57,973 --> 00:55:00,053 Speaker 7: certain things that work and certain things that don't. But 1140 00:55:00,213 --> 00:55:03,093 Speaker 7: I would definitely say when it comes not just to 1141 00:55:03,213 --> 00:55:05,733 Speaker 7: young men but men in general, they actually are a 1142 00:55:05,733 --> 00:55:08,933 Speaker 7: lot more accepting of some of those things we've discussed, 1143 00:55:08,973 --> 00:55:12,013 Speaker 7: and actually some of the real stereotypical stuff that we'd 1144 00:55:12,053 --> 00:55:15,493 Speaker 7: love to just throw out there isn't actually true, Like 1145 00:55:15,613 --> 00:55:18,333 Speaker 7: there is huge change going on and actually men and 1146 00:55:18,373 --> 00:55:21,893 Speaker 7: boys are totally up for looking out for each other, 1147 00:55:22,333 --> 00:55:25,933 Speaker 7: you know. Yeah, PEPs. Going from that from christ Mate 1148 00:55:26,013 --> 00:55:27,253 Speaker 7: is a bit of that going on as well. But 1149 00:55:27,293 --> 00:55:29,733 Speaker 7: like I think overall, some of the things you've just 1150 00:55:29,773 --> 00:55:32,933 Speaker 7: discussed are becoming less and less of a view or 1151 00:55:32,973 --> 00:55:34,853 Speaker 7: what you might do with your mates.

But we're now seeing the extreme 1320 01:03:17,053 --> 01:03:25,173 Speaker 11: behaviors start to come out, things like there's no safe 1321 01:03:25,173 --> 01:03:28,493 Speaker 11: limits and alcohol causes cancer and all of the stuff 1322 01:03:28,493 --> 01:03:30,373 Speaker 11: that you're starting to see on trends go on in 1323 01:03:30,413 --> 01:03:33,093 Speaker 11: Melbourne and various other bits and pieces. And I think 1324 01:03:33,133 --> 01:03:38,133 Speaker 11: that's inherently damaging because it does mean that effectively, people 1325 01:03:38,173 --> 01:03:40,573 Speaker 11: don't feel like they can go out and socialize and 1326 01:03:40,613 --> 01:03:43,893 Speaker 11: can have a drink because they're constantly counting drinks or 1327 01:03:44,533 --> 01:03:47,773 Speaker 11: or checking themselves because there is no safe limits or 1328 01:03:48,133 --> 01:03:50,373 Speaker 11: you know, are they going to die? Tenser and Bobus time. 1329 01:03:53,053 --> 01:03:55,733 Speaker 2: Yeah, and so do you think that the you know, 1330 01:03:56,133 --> 01:04:00,413 Speaker 2: the loneliness as your point that that we've gone too 1331 01:04:00,453 --> 01:04:03,973 Speaker 2: far and it's not a zero sum game and some 1332 01:04:03,973 --> 01:04:09,013 Speaker 2: people are pushing zero alcohol. But but as as a result, 1333 01:04:09,373 --> 01:04:12,493 Speaker 2: the good that came from alcohol around you know, socializing 1334 01:04:12,653 --> 01:04:17,173 Speaker 2: and and you know, the combating of loneliness and the 1335 01:04:17,213 --> 01:04:22,373 Speaker 2: connection is being lost in the in the conversation. Is 1336 01:04:22,373 --> 01:04:23,693 Speaker 2: that Is that what you're saying, Peter. 1337 01:04:24,133 --> 01:04:27,853 Speaker 11: Yeah, absolutely. I mean the days of going out to 1338 01:04:28,373 --> 01:04:32,893 Speaker 11: the the pub well your mates for a beer. You're 1339 01:04:32,933 --> 01:04:36,653 Speaker 11: almost in some in some circles villified for doing that 1340 01:04:37,133 --> 01:04:41,493 Speaker 11: because because it's you know, it's it's simply not safe. 1341 01:04:41,733 --> 01:04:45,893 Speaker 11: And it needs to be a balance between having a 1342 01:04:45,973 --> 01:04:49,853 Speaker 11: social numbricant like a beer and going out having one 1343 01:04:49,893 --> 01:04:54,533 Speaker 11: or two and feeling okay about doing that. Rather than 1344 01:04:54,933 --> 01:04:58,533 Speaker 11: have this constant messaging coming back from any the alcohol 1345 01:04:58,533 --> 01:05:04,653 Speaker 11: lobby's lobbyists to say, oh, look, you know, you have 1346 01:05:04,733 --> 01:05:08,533 Speaker 11: to be aware of exactly how much you're drinking two 1347 01:05:08,533 --> 01:05:11,533 Speaker 11: a week, because if you have four strands of drinks 1348 01:05:11,533 --> 01:05:16,453 Speaker 11: in a four hour session versus six drinks and a 1349 01:05:16,493 --> 01:05:20,133 Speaker 11: four hour session, one's okay and the other one you're 1350 01:05:20,133 --> 01:05:23,293 Speaker 11: a Ben's drinker. Therefore you are a problem. 1351 01:05:24,013 --> 01:05:26,773 Speaker 3: Is that part of the issue that we do have 1352 01:05:26,813 --> 01:05:29,853 Speaker 3: in some circles, Peter, is particularly for younger, younger guys 1353 01:05:29,933 --> 01:05:33,813 Speaker 3: and younger females for that matter, that the idea of 1354 01:05:33,933 --> 01:05:37,533 Speaker 3: one or two is not really a thing. You know, 1355 01:05:37,573 --> 01:05:39,813 Speaker 3: there are some and I'm not knocking younger people here, 1356 01:05:39,893 --> 01:05:42,293 Speaker 3: but certainly when I was in my twenties, it wasn't 1357 01:05:42,293 --> 01:05:43,693 Speaker 3: really a thing that you just go out for a 1358 01:05:43,693 --> 01:05:45,773 Speaker 3: couple of beers unless it was on a Sunday afternoon 1359 01:05:45,853 --> 01:05:47,613 Speaker 3: that you went out and you had at a few 1360 01:05:47,653 --> 01:05:50,093 Speaker 3: more than that. And for some people that caused a 1361 01:05:50,093 --> 01:05:51,173 Speaker 3: bit too much damage. 1362 01:05:52,293 --> 01:05:55,293 Speaker 11: I think. I think that's what been for lack of 1363 01:05:55,453 --> 01:05:58,133 Speaker 11: energy on the anti alcohol lobby have done really well. 1364 01:05:58,173 --> 01:06:03,293 Speaker 11: They've changed that excuse me, that narrative or that that culture, 1365 01:06:03,333 --> 01:06:05,773 Speaker 11: and I'm certainly seeing in amongst lots of young people 1366 01:06:05,933 --> 01:06:09,693 Speaker 11: now where there are abstinence last longer or is. When 1367 01:06:09,693 --> 01:06:12,373 Speaker 11: I was growing up, the drinking ages was twenty and 1368 01:06:12,453 --> 01:06:15,013 Speaker 11: I was still you know, going into bottle stores and 1369 01:06:15,013 --> 01:06:16,973 Speaker 11: trying to buy it when I was sixteen and various 1370 01:06:16,973 --> 01:06:19,253 Speaker 11: other things. What you see now is a very clear 1371 01:06:20,053 --> 01:06:24,013 Speaker 11: abstinence for much longer amongst young people, and that's that's 1372 01:06:24,013 --> 01:06:27,453 Speaker 11: got to be a good thing. I think where the 1373 01:06:27,533 --> 01:06:33,213 Speaker 11: line's been crossed though, is simply saying it's okay to 1374 01:06:33,253 --> 01:06:35,253 Speaker 11: go and have a beer or a couple, or it's 1375 01:06:35,293 --> 01:06:37,413 Speaker 11: okay to have too much once in a while, don't 1376 01:06:37,413 --> 01:06:40,373 Speaker 11: make it, don't make it a regular thing, and it's 1377 01:06:40,413 --> 01:06:42,293 Speaker 11: okay to make the stakes and all of that stuff 1378 01:06:42,333 --> 01:06:46,973 Speaker 11: has been lost, and those growing pains for lack of 1379 01:06:47,013 --> 01:06:51,133 Speaker 11: a better term, have been lost, not specifically around alcohol, 1380 01:06:51,173 --> 01:06:55,773 Speaker 11: but you know, being in the bar and socializing with 1381 01:06:55,853 --> 01:07:00,293 Speaker 11: people and understanding what makes up different people and how 1382 01:07:00,333 --> 01:07:03,173 Speaker 11: to interact with difference on different people on different levels. 1383 01:07:03,533 --> 01:07:05,213 Speaker 11: All of that has now gone. 1384 01:07:06,053 --> 01:07:08,493 Speaker 2: Do you have you noticed? You know, you're in the 1385 01:07:08,493 --> 01:07:11,173 Speaker 2: industry and we're getting a lot of texts coming through 1386 01:07:11,213 --> 01:07:13,653 Speaker 2: here and saying it's not so much that kids are 1387 01:07:14,253 --> 01:07:20,173 Speaker 2: sobering up, it's that they're choosing illegal drugs, so MDMA 1388 01:07:20,853 --> 01:07:25,693 Speaker 2: and cocaine and meth, and that that kids have you know, 1389 01:07:25,733 --> 01:07:27,173 Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't have the stats on this, 1390 01:07:27,893 --> 01:07:29,893 Speaker 2: but there's a lot of people texting through that it's 1391 01:07:29,893 --> 01:07:32,253 Speaker 2: not so much that kids are cleaner, it's just that 1392 01:07:32,293 --> 01:07:34,933 Speaker 2: they're going for other stuff, and that that kids still 1393 01:07:34,933 --> 01:07:37,973 Speaker 2: have this desire to get wasted, they're just getting wasted 1394 01:07:38,013 --> 01:07:39,693 Speaker 2: in a different way. I mean, is there anything that 1395 01:07:39,733 --> 01:07:41,333 Speaker 2: you're seeing around that, Peter. 1396 01:07:42,173 --> 01:07:45,573 Speaker 11: Yeah, one undred percent. And I think the challenge is 1397 01:07:45,613 --> 01:07:48,413 Speaker 11: the one thing that we measure them with like meticulous 1398 01:07:48,853 --> 01:07:55,333 Speaker 11: accuracy is alcohol and alcohol hearts, Whereas what young people 1399 01:07:55,333 --> 01:07:58,853 Speaker 11: are interested in is bang for buck. So if I 1400 01:07:58,933 --> 01:08:05,013 Speaker 11: can go and buy the bottle of unknown wine, say 1401 01:08:05,173 --> 01:08:09,093 Speaker 11: or twenty MDMA tablet that lasts longer and it has 1402 01:08:09,093 --> 01:08:13,573 Speaker 11: a much better, a cleaner impact, That's what I'm going 1403 01:08:13,653 --> 01:08:20,813 Speaker 11: to do. And certainly amongst my kids here group and 1404 01:08:20,893 --> 01:08:24,253 Speaker 11: they're they're in that eighteen between year old category, it 1405 01:08:24,333 --> 01:08:26,652 Speaker 11: is a very real thing and a very real problem. 1406 01:08:27,253 --> 01:08:31,333 Speaker 11: And we've spent all of this energy on alcohol is 1407 01:08:31,372 --> 01:08:33,732 Speaker 11: the you know, alcohol is the devil for lack of 1408 01:08:33,772 --> 01:08:36,692 Speaker 11: a better term, We've forgot about all of this other 1409 01:08:36,812 --> 01:08:39,572 Speaker 11: stuff that that kids need to be educated on and 1410 01:08:39,612 --> 01:08:42,732 Speaker 11: young adults need to be editated on. In terms of 1411 01:08:42,853 --> 01:08:46,372 Speaker 11: in terms of life, and you know, potentially the dangers 1412 01:08:46,612 --> 01:08:49,892 Speaker 11: the poorly mixed drugs, which is what I talk to 1413 01:08:49,933 --> 01:08:52,892 Speaker 11: my kids a lot about, you know, and you don't 1414 01:08:52,933 --> 01:08:54,452 Speaker 11: know what it is that you're take it, whereas with 1415 01:08:54,492 --> 01:08:58,532 Speaker 11: alcohol is a level of certainty that you yeah. 1416 01:08:58,412 --> 01:09:00,492 Speaker 3: Just I mean, just going back to the thing on 1417 01:09:00,572 --> 01:09:03,293 Speaker 3: alcohol as well, that the point Scott Galloway made at 1418 01:09:03,333 --> 01:09:05,172 Speaker 3: the end that go out and make some bad decisions, 1419 01:09:05,213 --> 01:09:06,932 Speaker 3: and that well, you know, it's already upset a few 1420 01:09:06,973 --> 01:09:09,692 Speaker 3: people on the text, but part of me thinks that 1421 01:09:09,893 --> 01:09:12,492 Speaker 3: is quite a compelling argument. And you mentioned to Peter 1422 01:09:12,572 --> 01:09:15,492 Speaker 3: that when you're young, that is your time to go 1423 01:09:15,532 --> 01:09:18,133 Speaker 3: out and make a series of decisions that might not 1424 01:09:18,213 --> 01:09:20,053 Speaker 3: turn out well at the time, but then you look 1425 01:09:20,093 --> 01:09:23,452 Speaker 3: back on that as a learning experience and sometimes quite 1426 01:09:23,492 --> 01:09:26,372 Speaker 3: often they are a massive bonding experiences with people you 1427 01:09:26,452 --> 01:09:28,532 Speaker 3: may stay friends with for the rest of your life. 1428 01:09:29,692 --> 01:09:31,532 Speaker 11: Yeah, it doesn't mean you need to go out and 1429 01:09:31,532 --> 01:09:35,532 Speaker 11: you absolutely hamm it. It makes some bad decisions. You know, 1430 01:09:35,612 --> 01:09:40,293 Speaker 11: we make bad decisions every day, and they become war 1431 01:09:40,372 --> 01:09:43,492 Speaker 11: stories that you share with people in a social environment. 1432 01:09:43,492 --> 01:09:48,692 Speaker 11: But I also think it's really mentally, it's really important 1433 01:09:48,732 --> 01:09:50,933 Speaker 11: for your mental well being to have a group of 1434 01:09:50,933 --> 01:09:53,892 Speaker 11: people where you can share those things that didn't go 1435 01:09:54,013 --> 01:09:56,892 Speaker 11: so well or you you know, it's a war story 1436 01:09:56,973 --> 01:09:59,852 Speaker 11: or whatever. And I think that's kind of where you 1437 01:09:59,893 --> 01:10:04,173 Speaker 11: guys are coming from. That's that just socialization of having around, 1438 01:10:04,612 --> 01:10:06,532 Speaker 11: standing around, having a deal with your mates, whether it's 1439 01:10:06,532 --> 01:10:11,372 Speaker 11: your backyard or a bar or whatever. Those can be 1440 01:10:11,492 --> 01:10:16,412 Speaker 11: really socially cleansing and really good for your mental health 1441 01:10:16,452 --> 01:10:16,852 Speaker 11: as well. 1442 01:10:17,732 --> 01:10:21,213 Speaker 2: Peter, working in the alcohol industry, obviously there are these 1443 01:10:21,253 --> 01:10:24,972 Speaker 2: harms and and you see them, and there's there's obviously 1444 01:10:25,013 --> 01:10:26,932 Speaker 2: that the terrible things that happen on the road, and 1445 01:10:26,973 --> 01:10:31,612 Speaker 2: there's there's alcohol harm right through the community. Did you 1446 01:10:31,692 --> 01:10:35,692 Speaker 2: ever weigh that up in that that's the industry that 1447 01:10:35,732 --> 01:10:38,293 Speaker 2: you make money in. Did you ever have any guilt 1448 01:10:38,333 --> 01:10:42,133 Speaker 2: around that side of alcohol and the people that don't 1449 01:10:42,213 --> 01:10:44,412 Speaker 2: use it in a sensible fashion. 1450 01:10:46,412 --> 01:10:48,293 Speaker 11: Because I've spent a long time working to the other 1451 01:10:48,333 --> 01:10:52,572 Speaker 11: side as well, so I've seen both sides. And what 1452 01:10:52,612 --> 01:10:55,612 Speaker 11: I will say about working in the alcohol industry is 1453 01:10:56,652 --> 01:11:01,652 Speaker 11: by and large, the alcohol industry want and and people 1454 01:11:01,692 --> 01:11:05,532 Speaker 11: advocating against the alcohol industry they want the same thing. 1455 01:11:05,732 --> 01:11:08,812 Speaker 11: They want a safe environment, They want is a bar 1456 01:11:08,933 --> 01:11:12,093 Speaker 11: wants that bars want safe environments for people to go to. 1457 01:11:12,692 --> 01:11:17,812 Speaker 11: Everybody's after the same thing. What we have done, by 1458 01:11:17,933 --> 01:11:25,452 Speaker 11: default is draw better lines. So therefore, if I say 1459 01:11:25,492 --> 01:11:28,213 Speaker 11: something as somebody who's now from the industry, that was 1460 01:11:28,253 --> 01:11:30,293 Speaker 11: exactly that was what I said when I was working 1461 01:11:30,333 --> 01:11:33,933 Speaker 11: on the other side, it doesn't have any It's not 1462 01:11:34,013 --> 01:11:38,092 Speaker 11: valid in any way, shape or form, because I'm alwaysing 1463 01:11:38,173 --> 01:11:40,133 Speaker 11: for the industry, Whereas if I said exactly the same 1464 01:11:40,133 --> 01:11:42,572 Speaker 11: thing when I was working on the other side, that 1465 01:11:42,612 --> 01:11:49,093 Speaker 11: would have been you know, the pedacea. So I get 1466 01:11:49,093 --> 01:11:56,933 Speaker 11: where you're coming from that. But ultimately, all alcohol is 1467 01:11:57,053 --> 01:11:59,612 Speaker 11: is something that's in the camp and how we choose 1468 01:11:59,612 --> 01:12:03,652 Speaker 11: to use it is what's with the decision. But where 1469 01:12:03,652 --> 01:12:07,532 Speaker 11: a decision making an individual comes in and we seem 1470 01:12:07,572 --> 01:12:14,133 Speaker 11: to have moved away from personal responsibility, personal accountability, a spike, 1471 01:12:14,213 --> 01:12:16,093 Speaker 11: the fact that everybody's owning for the same time. 1472 01:12:16,492 --> 01:12:17,772 Speaker 2: I thank you so much for you four Peter, do 1473 01:12:17,772 --> 01:12:19,932 Speaker 2: you agree?

By the time I was seteen, I 1496 01:13:30,013 --> 01:13:35,372 Speaker 15: was drinking regularly. Got married at twenty three, drunk through 1497 01:13:35,412 --> 01:13:37,852 Speaker 15: all that. My wife was a big drinker as well, 1498 01:13:38,053 --> 01:13:41,133 Speaker 15: got divorced and then I really hit it. Ended up 1499 01:13:41,133 --> 01:13:47,372 Speaker 15: doing four reheads and the biggest change that I made 1500 01:13:47,452 --> 01:13:50,293 Speaker 15: in my life was moving away from the people that 1501 01:13:50,333 --> 01:13:52,973 Speaker 15: I was drinking with because. 1502 01:13:54,173 --> 01:13:55,532 Speaker 20: Got to that stage of like. 1503 01:13:56,532 --> 01:14:00,173 Speaker 15: Only hanging around people who were willing to do the 1504 01:14:00,213 --> 01:14:05,293 Speaker 15: same sort of drinking. And when you step back from it, 1505 01:14:05,372 --> 01:14:09,892 Speaker 15: you've basically one percent of the population when you're in 1506 01:14:09,893 --> 01:14:16,333 Speaker 15: that group, and so you think it's normal. It comes 1507 01:14:16,333 --> 01:14:19,132 Speaker 15: with normality about it, and we're talking on a daily 1508 01:14:19,173 --> 01:14:22,932 Speaker 15: basis here, but when you step back away from it, 1509 01:14:23,013 --> 01:14:26,773 Speaker 15: and I took myself away from it probably twelve. 1510 01:14:26,652 --> 01:14:28,092 Speaker 20: Fifteen years ago now. 1511 01:14:30,372 --> 01:14:36,492 Speaker 15: And basically cut myself off from the people that become 1512 01:14:36,532 --> 01:14:42,772 Speaker 15: associated with. But now I live a very lonely life 1513 01:14:43,293 --> 01:14:48,213 Speaker 15: now it's my choice to do that, but it's there's 1514 01:14:48,253 --> 01:14:57,292 Speaker 15: a difficulty in reconnecting with society as a very difficult 1515 01:14:58,253 --> 01:15:02,333 Speaker 15: I go, yeah, I can go all week and now 1516 01:15:02,452 --> 01:15:05,852 Speaker 15: in communication that I'll have with unfortunate that I've still 1517 01:15:05,893 --> 01:15:08,813 Speaker 15: got parentss that they're very old now. 1518 01:15:09,732 --> 01:15:13,253 Speaker 20: So it's a couple of friends that I might keep 1519 01:15:13,253 --> 01:15:14,052 Speaker 20: in touch with. 1520 01:15:14,772 --> 01:15:19,532 Speaker 15: You know, maybe on a two monthly, three monthly basis, 1521 01:15:20,333 --> 01:15:25,933 Speaker 15: and family and that's it, apart from a better communication, 1522 01:15:26,173 --> 01:15:29,532 Speaker 15: you know, going to do the grocery shopping and talking 1523 01:15:29,572 --> 01:15:35,293 Speaker 15: to the counter out, you know, person on The communication 1524 01:15:36,013 --> 01:15:40,732 Speaker 15: that I have now is very, very limited, And the 1525 01:15:40,772 --> 01:15:44,092 Speaker 15: biggest thing I'd like to reiterate to is that anyone 1526 01:15:44,213 --> 01:15:47,732 Speaker 15: who's out there that is struggling with alcohol, have a 1527 01:15:47,732 --> 01:15:51,612 Speaker 15: look at what you're doing.

So so you know, you haven't got alcohol 1545 01:16:43,372 --> 01:16:46,372 Speaker 2: to get over that that social barrier. And then also 1546 01:16:46,372 --> 01:16:48,892 Speaker 2: if you talk to someone they can't hear you. You know, 1547 01:16:48,933 --> 01:16:51,253 Speaker 2: they look taking the air thing out and go what yeah. 1548 01:16:51,812 --> 01:16:56,933 Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah yeah.

Welcome back into the show. 1579 01:18:33,093 --> 01:18:35,692 Speaker 3: Seven past three, and we have for the last couple 1580 01:18:35,732 --> 01:18:39,092 Speaker 3: of hours I've been chatting about some comments American professor, 1581 01:18:39,173 --> 01:18:42,093 Speaker 3: best selling author Scott Galloway made on Real Time with 1582 01:18:42,173 --> 01:18:45,932 Speaker 3: Bill maher Or in America. So here's the quote he said, 1583 01:18:45,973 --> 01:18:47,812 Speaker 3: and it's to do with young men and young people 1584 01:18:47,812 --> 01:18:49,812 Speaker 3: in particularly. He said, in my view, the worst thing 1585 01:18:49,853 --> 01:18:52,852 Speaker 3: that's happened to young people is the anti alcohol movement. 1586 01:18:52,893 --> 01:18:54,492 Speaker 3: My point is that the rest of your twenty five 1587 01:18:54,572 --> 01:18:56,732 Speaker 3: year old liver are dwarfed by the risk of social 1588 01:18:56,772 --> 01:19:00,053 Speaker 3: isolation in some Think of all the amazing relationships you've 1589 01:19:00,053 --> 01:19:02,333 Speaker 3: had in your life, and be honest, did alcohol play 1590 01:19:02,372 --> 01:19:04,732 Speaker 3: a role in some get out drink more and make 1591 01:19:04,772 --> 01:19:06,892 Speaker 3: a series of bad decisions that might pay off. 1592 01:19:07,053 --> 01:19:07,253 Speaker 7: Yeah. 1593 01:19:07,253 --> 01:19:09,372 Speaker 2: So we've had a lot of chat back and forth 1594 01:19:09,452 --> 01:19:11,692 Speaker 2: on this, people that think he's an idiot, and people 1595 01:19:11,732 --> 01:19:15,293 Speaker 2: that agree with him, and people in the middle. And look, 1596 01:19:15,333 --> 01:19:17,492 Speaker 2: I've said a bunch of things and they've potentially been 1597 01:19:17,532 --> 01:19:19,213 Speaker 2: taken the wrong way or the right way. I mean, 1598 01:19:19,213 --> 01:19:21,253 Speaker 2: people can take what I say whatever way they want. 1599 01:19:21,933 --> 01:19:24,452 Speaker 2: But I just thought i'd spend the news break just 1600 01:19:24,492 --> 01:19:26,932 Speaker 2: writing down my thoughts, yep, because try and bring everything 1601 01:19:26,933 --> 01:19:28,932 Speaker 2: that together. Because I feel like I've learned a bit 1602 01:19:29,412 --> 01:19:32,253 Speaker 2: in the last hour. So here we go. Here's something 1603 01:19:32,412 --> 01:19:33,412 Speaker 2: I just scribble down. 1604 01:19:33,532 --> 01:19:34,652 Speaker 4: Okay, here it is. 1605 01:19:34,893 --> 01:19:38,412 Speaker 2: So I don't think Prof. G is really saying drink more. 1606 01:19:38,853 --> 01:19:42,213 Speaker 2: He's just pointing out something not good in the Western world, 1607 01:19:42,612 --> 01:19:45,132 Speaker 2: which includes our beautiful little country. Young people are drinking 1608 01:19:45,213 --> 01:19:48,293 Speaker 2: less than any generation before them. And that sounds great 1609 01:19:48,333 --> 01:19:50,852 Speaker 2: until you put it into the next fact that loneliness 1610 01:19:50,893 --> 01:19:53,013 Speaker 2: has doubled and we're now in New Zealand, one of 1611 01:19:53,013 --> 01:19:57,412 Speaker 2: the most isolated countries in the OECD. Maybe they're not 1612 01:19:57,412 --> 01:20:00,572 Speaker 2: pissing up because they're wis dart. Maybe they're just not 1613 01:20:00,692 --> 01:20:03,412 Speaker 2: going out at all and seeing mates even a little bit, 1614 01:20:03,612 --> 01:20:06,932 Speaker 2: not dating, not playing sport. They're at home, having their 1615 01:20:06,973 --> 01:20:10,532 Speaker 2: instincts for connection, and both friends and romantically gamed for 1616 01:20:10,612 --> 01:20:14,692 Speaker 2: cash by big tech. And look, no one wants the blackout, drunk, 1617 01:20:14,772 --> 01:20:18,052 Speaker 2: fire trucking, carnage side of drinking. But lack of social 1618 01:20:18,053 --> 01:20:22,573 Speaker 2: connection is also a huge health risk mentally, physically, and economically. 1619 01:20:23,333 --> 01:20:25,053 Speaker 2: And if the choice for a twenty two year old 1620 01:20:25,133 --> 01:20:28,052 Speaker 2: is another night doom scrolling and watching adult content alone, 1621 01:20:28,492 --> 01:20:31,133 Speaker 2: or a couple of drinks with actual human beings, one 1622 01:20:31,133 --> 01:20:33,852 Speaker 2: of which might turn out to be a significant other 1623 01:20:34,053 --> 01:20:37,692 Speaker 2: for life, leading to family and community, the bigger danger 1624 01:20:37,692 --> 01:20:40,653 Speaker 2: It might not be the bears. It might be that isolation. 1625 01:20:41,293 --> 01:20:44,293 Speaker 2: Alcohol probably shouldn't be the only fix for loneliness we 1626 01:20:44,333 --> 01:20:47,253 Speaker 2: seek out, but we can't lecture young people back into 1627 01:20:47,253 --> 01:20:52,293 Speaker 2: connection without giving them any real non online community. It 1628 01:20:52,372 --> 01:20:54,892 Speaker 2: seems that moderate alcohol use might not be the best 1629 01:20:54,933 --> 01:20:58,213 Speaker 2: thing ever. But if it's that or doom scrolling alone 1630 01:20:58,213 --> 01:21:01,772 Speaker 2: in your bedroom rotting rather than being rotten like that 1631 01:21:02,133 --> 01:21:05,612 Speaker 2: texting mother said, it might be the lesser of two evils. 1632 01:21:05,772 --> 01:21:08,892 Speaker 3: Nice yeah, nicely, pot very very very good. And what 1633 01:21:08,933 --> 01:21:12,013 Speaker 3: a discussion that was at the last two hours and 1634 01:21:12,053 --> 01:21:14,613 Speaker 3: this will be an interesting discussion as well. So Netflix 1635 01:21:14,652 --> 01:21:17,452 Speaker 3: big news over the weekend is set to acquire Warner 1636 01:21:17,452 --> 01:21:19,732 Speaker 3: Brothers and HBO Max And a one hundred and twenty 1637 01:21:19,732 --> 01:21:22,692 Speaker 3: five billion dollar deal that's in New Zealand dollars. So 1638 01:21:22,732 --> 01:21:25,772 Speaker 3: it will reshape the global streaming landscape with potential impacts 1639 01:21:25,812 --> 01:21:29,293 Speaker 3: on how and where New Zealanders see their favorite shows. 1640 01:21:29,652 --> 01:21:33,612 Speaker 3: But after the deal, Netflix co CEO Ted Sarandos, he 1641 01:21:33,652 --> 01:21:36,532 Speaker 3: made some very controversial comments, and here they are. He 1642 01:21:36,572 --> 01:21:40,772 Speaker 3: said Netflix was saving Hollywood and went on to claim 1643 01:21:40,933 --> 01:21:45,093 Speaker 3: that going to the movies is an outdated concept and 1644 01:21:45,173 --> 01:21:48,692 Speaker 3: an out modern idea. He further suggested that that the 1645 01:21:48,772 --> 01:21:52,653 Speaker 3: struggling box officers proof people would prefer to watch movies 1646 01:21:52,692 --> 01:21:55,453 Speaker 3: at home rather than going to the cinema. 1647 01:21:55,532 --> 01:21:56,932 Speaker 4: I mean, they are some shots fired. 1648 01:21:57,572 --> 01:22:00,013 Speaker 2: Yeah so depressing, isn't it? 1649 01:22:00,173 --> 01:22:00,372 Speaker 10: Yeah? 1650 01:22:00,772 --> 01:22:04,052 Speaker 2: Really so? And you know he's got a vested interest 1651 01:22:04,093 --> 01:22:06,732 Speaker 2: in that, hasn't he that? Because Netflix they want you 1652 01:22:07,013 --> 01:22:08,452 Speaker 2: at home in front of the TV. They don't when 1653 01:22:08,452 --> 01:22:09,932 Speaker 2: you're going out to movie theaters. They don't care if 1654 01:22:09,933 --> 01:22:12,412 Speaker 2: the movies die. But are the movies in the movie 1655 01:22:12,492 --> 01:22:16,572 Speaker 2: theaters something to be saved? What do you think about 1656 01:22:16,572 --> 01:22:17,852 Speaker 2: going to the movies. I went to the movies the 1657 01:22:17,893 --> 01:22:20,173 Speaker 2: other day. I went to Predator bad Lands, and I 1658 01:22:20,293 --> 01:22:23,412 Speaker 2: loved the experience of it going to the movies. And 1659 01:22:23,452 --> 01:22:28,892 Speaker 2: Warner Brothers owns so many fantastic properties they own DC, 1660 01:22:29,732 --> 01:22:32,772 Speaker 2: So that means now Netflix owns the future of Batman. Yep, 1661 01:22:33,013 --> 01:22:35,812 Speaker 2: do you care about that? Future of Superman, future of 1662 01:22:36,093 --> 01:22:40,173 Speaker 2: Harry Potter, so many other great things. Christopher Nolans made 1663 01:22:40,213 --> 01:22:45,532 Speaker 2: his movies through Warner Brothers, So now that's all being bought. 1664 01:22:45,933 --> 01:22:49,293 Speaker 2: One of the most successful movie companies of all time, 1665 01:22:49,333 --> 01:22:51,572 Speaker 2: that has made some of the greatest movies and has 1666 01:22:51,772 --> 01:22:55,412 Speaker 2: had a real focus on the theater has now been 1667 01:22:55,452 --> 01:22:57,852 Speaker 2: bought by Netflix. And so they want to take that 1668 01:22:57,933 --> 01:23:00,133 Speaker 2: stuff out of the movies and they want to put 1669 01:23:00,173 --> 01:23:02,093 Speaker 2: it in your home, so no one goes out to 1670 01:23:02,133 --> 01:23:04,213 Speaker 2: the movies. It'skind of talks to social isolation a bit 1671 01:23:04,213 --> 01:23:04,572 Speaker 2: as well. 1672 01:23:04,692 --> 01:23:04,812 Speaker 10: Well. 1673 01:23:04,853 --> 01:23:06,852 Speaker 3: We definitely known that before, Yeah, And I think for 1674 01:23:06,893 --> 01:23:09,452 Speaker 3: a lot of people and probably me and pcluted, that 1675 01:23:09,692 --> 01:23:10,452 Speaker 3: is a sad thing. 1676 01:23:10,652 --> 01:23:12,333 Speaker 4: I was when I saw that news and. 1677 01:23:12,253 --> 01:23:13,892 Speaker 3: I've done a bit of a dive into it now, 1678 01:23:14,133 --> 01:23:16,612 Speaker 3: and initially when I saw the headline, I said, I 1679 01:23:16,692 --> 01:23:20,053 Speaker 3: know that's not a good thing. Particularly HBO Max and 1680 01:23:20,093 --> 01:23:22,812 Speaker 3: as you say, Warner Brothers fantastic movies through the generation. 1681 01:23:23,213 --> 01:23:25,333 Speaker 3: And I don't go to the cinema as much as 1682 01:23:25,333 --> 01:23:27,812 Speaker 3: I should. I know that, But the experience that I 1683 01:23:27,933 --> 01:23:31,372 Speaker 3: get at home is such a weak version of what 1684 01:23:31,612 --> 01:23:34,013 Speaker 3: it used to be. When you drag yourself out of 1685 01:23:34,013 --> 01:23:36,812 Speaker 3: your home, you get down, you buy the treats, you 1686 01:23:36,933 --> 01:23:40,732 Speaker 3: take your seat. The soundscape's amazing, it's a massive screen. 1687 01:23:40,812 --> 01:23:43,012 Speaker 3: People are cheering and laughing if the movie is good enough, 1688 01:23:43,213 --> 01:23:45,372 Speaker 3: or crying or screaming or whatever it is. It's that 1689 01:23:45,933 --> 01:23:50,012 Speaker 3: full on, immersive shared experience that you'll never get it home. 1690 01:23:50,093 --> 01:23:50,852 Speaker 4: You'll never get that. 1691 01:23:51,173 --> 01:23:54,732 Speaker 2: Yeah, And also artistically, there is something about the movie 1692 01:23:54,812 --> 01:23:58,892 Speaker 2: directors that make the films for the big screen, that 1693 01:23:59,013 --> 01:24:05,093 Speaker 2: make more meaningful products, more carefully created. There's something about 1694 01:24:05,133 --> 01:24:09,572 Speaker 2: the way Netflix makes things, or people that make money 1695 01:24:09,853 --> 01:24:12,253 Speaker 2: make films with Netflix money. I'm not sure it was. 1696 01:24:12,293 --> 01:24:14,852 Speaker 2: I'm not sure what the model is where they just 1697 01:24:14,933 --> 01:24:19,172 Speaker 2: become slop so you're not going to get a batman 1698 01:24:19,893 --> 01:24:23,012 Speaker 2: like in my opinion, you know, sometimes that happens. Sometimes 1699 01:24:23,013 --> 01:24:28,013 Speaker 2: the streamers do make fantastic products. Absolutely, that's true. But 1700 01:24:28,133 --> 01:24:34,692 Speaker 2: generally speaking, a Netflix movie is a less quality, it's 1701 01:24:34,812 --> 01:24:38,973 Speaker 2: less artistic, it's less of a meaningful, lasting experience, in 1702 01:24:39,013 --> 01:24:42,693 Speaker 2: my opinion than things that are made to be projected 1703 01:24:42,772 --> 01:24:46,452 Speaker 2: onto a massive screen. I mean, can you see Netflix 1704 01:24:46,572 --> 01:24:49,532 Speaker 2: making the level of Batman that Christopher Nolan made with 1705 01:24:49,572 --> 01:24:51,053 Speaker 2: The Dark Knight Returns. 1706 01:24:50,973 --> 01:24:52,892 Speaker 4: Because there's no incentive for them to do that. 1707 01:24:52,973 --> 01:24:56,333 Speaker 2: Really, what they'll do is they'll make a series that 1708 01:24:56,492 --> 01:24:59,892 Speaker 2: has a really good first episode and maybe a half 1709 01:24:59,933 --> 01:25:02,532 Speaker 2: good second episode, but trust trying to keep you watching 1710 01:25:02,612 --> 01:25:04,612 Speaker 2: more and more so to get onto the next episode, 1711 01:25:04,652 --> 01:25:06,532 Speaker 2: and then there'll be four episodes in the middle where 1712 01:25:06,532 --> 01:25:08,333 Speaker 2: it just sort of plods along with nothing happening. 1713 01:25:08,452 --> 01:25:11,532 Speaker 3: Yeah, if anything, I would say that Netflix is actually 1714 01:25:11,532 --> 01:25:13,812 Speaker 3: starting to destroy entertainment. And I know there's some personal 1715 01:25:13,853 --> 01:25:16,933 Speaker 3: responsibility here, but there's a lot of truth. And if 1716 01:25:16,973 --> 01:25:19,572 Speaker 3: you're listening to this, guaranteed you've done it where you 1717 01:25:19,572 --> 01:25:22,012 Speaker 3: can't really decide what to watch on Netflix because there's 1718 01:25:22,013 --> 01:25:24,293 Speaker 3: so much option. But even if you find something that 1719 01:25:24,372 --> 01:25:27,052 Speaker 3: you like to watch, the fact that you're at home 1720 01:25:27,133 --> 01:25:28,972 Speaker 3: and you've got your phone next to you and you've 1721 01:25:29,013 --> 01:25:31,852 Speaker 3: got that little distraction device, Man, I do it all 1722 01:25:31,893 --> 01:25:34,372 Speaker 3: the time, and I hate myself for doing it because 1723 01:25:34,412 --> 01:25:38,213 Speaker 3: I am missing out on probably incredible storytelling, someone who's 1724 01:25:38,253 --> 01:25:41,852 Speaker 3: invested millions and millions and created many jobs creating this thing, 1725 01:25:41,893 --> 01:25:44,253 Speaker 3: whether it's a TV show or movie. And I can't 1726 01:25:44,333 --> 01:25:47,852 Speaker 3: drag myself away from doom scrolling on Instagram because apparently, 1727 01:25:48,133 --> 01:25:51,372 Speaker 3: you know I can't be. I don't have the attention 1728 01:25:51,492 --> 01:25:54,293 Speaker 3: span to sit in and lock in. When you're in 1729 01:25:54,333 --> 01:25:56,253 Speaker 3: a cinema. You are forced to do that, and the 1730 01:25:56,293 --> 01:25:58,372 Speaker 3: more that you do that, then your brain starts to 1731 01:25:58,412 --> 01:26:00,212 Speaker 3: develop it. You know, those skills again. 1732 01:26:00,053 --> 01:26:02,612 Speaker 2: One hundred percent. And I actually thought about that aspect 1733 01:26:02,612 --> 01:26:05,013 Speaker 2: of it, forced the fact you're forced to not be 1734 01:26:05,093 --> 01:26:07,293 Speaker 2: on your phone when you're in a movie theater and 1735 01:26:07,333 --> 01:26:10,452 Speaker 2: sit in the darkly concentrate on that. Because we've got 1736 01:26:10,452 --> 01:26:13,093 Speaker 2: this Netflix thing now that they've admitted where they make 1737 01:26:13,612 --> 01:26:16,852 Speaker 2: their products because they know people are they call them 1738 01:26:16,853 --> 01:26:19,772 Speaker 2: two screen products, so they know that the film that 1739 01:26:19,812 --> 01:26:22,093 Speaker 2: they're going to make for Netflix, most people are not 1740 01:26:22,093 --> 01:26:25,692 Speaker 2: going to be watching. So they make the plots simpler, 1741 01:26:26,053 --> 01:26:28,693 Speaker 2: and they make the and they fill them with cliches, 1742 01:26:29,173 --> 01:26:32,253 Speaker 2: so you know, when you when you tune in, when 1743 01:26:32,293 --> 01:26:34,092 Speaker 2: someone looks up from their phone. They're going to understand 1744 01:26:34,133 --> 01:26:36,772 Speaker 2: what's going on because they've seen it all before. There 1745 01:26:36,812 --> 01:26:39,772 Speaker 2: was a film called Red Notice starring The Rock and 1746 01:26:40,372 --> 01:26:43,532 Speaker 2: Gail Gottrid and what's his name that Ryan, the comedian 1747 01:26:43,652 --> 01:26:45,692 Speaker 2: guy with the deep voice, deed Pool. 1748 01:26:45,612 --> 01:26:48,452 Speaker 4: Yeah, Reynolds, Reynolds, yeah, yeah. 1749 01:26:48,492 --> 01:26:51,412 Speaker 2: And it was admitted that that movie was made because 1750 01:26:51,412 --> 01:26:53,892 Speaker 2: they knew people weren't going to be watching it. So 1751 01:26:53,893 --> 01:26:57,412 Speaker 2: so you know, Netflix buying Warner Brothers and bringing it 1752 01:26:57,452 --> 01:27:01,452 Speaker 2: into their stable, they're incentivized to make stuff that's not 1753 01:27:01,492 --> 01:27:05,892 Speaker 2: as good. Yeah, and it's not meant to actually be watched. Yeah, 1754 01:27:05,973 --> 01:27:09,652 Speaker 2: it's a really really concerning, concerning thing. In my opinion, 1755 01:27:10,013 --> 01:27:11,932 Speaker 2: this sixt is, come on, you have to be watching 1756 01:27:11,933 --> 01:27:14,692 Speaker 2: the big blockbuster movies at the pictures. For example, June. 1757 01:27:14,893 --> 01:27:16,892 Speaker 2: There's no way you could not watch that at the pictures. 1758 01:27:17,133 --> 01:27:19,973 Speaker 2: I agree. Both those June movies are incredible experiences in 1759 01:27:20,013 --> 01:27:21,933 Speaker 2: the movie theater. Or do you not care and you 1760 01:27:21,933 --> 01:27:25,372 Speaker 2: just think that the movie's too expensive and give me convenience? 1761 01:27:25,372 --> 01:27:26,012 Speaker 2: Will give me death? 1762 01:27:26,093 --> 01:27:26,173 Speaker 8: Oh? 1763 01:27:26,253 --> 01:27:28,092 Speaker 3: Eight one hundred and eighty ten eighty is that number 1764 01:27:28,093 --> 01:27:30,572 Speaker 3: to call? Nine two ninety two is the text? Let's 1765 01:27:30,572 --> 01:27:33,572 Speaker 3: get into it. It is sixteen past three on news Talk, 1766 01:27:33,652 --> 01:27:36,253 Speaker 3: si'd be eighteen past three, And that's exactly what we're 1767 01:27:36,253 --> 01:27:39,372 Speaker 3: talking about right now. The Netflix Warner Brothers movie deal 1768 01:27:39,372 --> 01:27:41,932 Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty five billion in New Zealand dollars. 1769 01:27:42,213 --> 01:27:44,133 Speaker 3: What is that going to mean for actually going to 1770 01:27:44,333 --> 01:27:48,133 Speaker 3: a movie theater and enjoying that full, immersive, shared experience. 1771 01:27:48,612 --> 01:27:50,612 Speaker 4: Is that a bad thing? Or are you full on 1772 01:27:50,612 --> 01:27:51,892 Speaker 4: on the Netflix gravy train. 1773 01:27:52,053 --> 01:27:55,333 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. So one of the greatest studios of 1774 01:27:55,372 --> 01:27:58,333 Speaker 2: all time, it's been focused on making films for the movies, 1775 01:27:58,452 --> 01:28:01,412 Speaker 2: is now going to be focused on making films to 1776 01:28:01,452 --> 01:28:03,892 Speaker 2: be watched on the couch. Kath, Welcome to the show. 1777 01:28:05,372 --> 01:28:08,053 Speaker 19: Hi, I'm a bit of a cinema file and I 1778 01:28:08,093 --> 01:28:11,053 Speaker 19: guess that I think this issue is pretty similar to 1779 01:28:11,133 --> 01:28:15,093 Speaker 19: the drinking issue you were discussing earlier. And there's just 1780 01:28:15,572 --> 01:28:19,133 Speaker 19: more and more reasons for people to just sit on 1781 01:28:19,173 --> 01:28:22,333 Speaker 19: the couch and not go out and not experience and 1782 01:28:22,412 --> 01:28:27,293 Speaker 19: not have the etiquettees, the camaraderie, all the good things 1783 01:28:27,492 --> 01:28:30,173 Speaker 19: about going to the cinema and actually, you know, I, 1784 01:28:30,333 --> 01:28:33,933 Speaker 19: face to face, I see teenagers who are nervous to 1785 01:28:34,013 --> 01:28:38,372 Speaker 19: make a subway order. They struggle so much socially, and 1786 01:28:38,412 --> 01:28:40,612 Speaker 19: I just think it's all part of the same package. 1787 01:28:40,652 --> 01:28:43,452 Speaker 2: To be honest, howerful, Would you go to the movies? 1788 01:28:43,612 --> 01:28:47,972 Speaker 19: Kat, It's embarrassing that I am an English teacher probably 1789 01:28:47,973 --> 01:28:49,333 Speaker 19: about fifty times a year. 1790 01:28:49,612 --> 01:28:53,372 Speaker 2: Nice, that's good. Are you finding enough good movies to 1791 01:28:53,492 --> 01:28:55,732 Speaker 2: go to to go basically once a weekend? 1792 01:28:57,372 --> 01:29:00,253 Speaker 19: Look like, I'm a bit of a bore brush. I like, 1793 01:29:00,412 --> 01:29:03,213 Speaker 19: you know, like my Marvel as well as obviously the 1794 01:29:03,293 --> 01:29:07,253 Speaker 19: film fest films, and I just enjoy cinema and enjoy reading, 1795 01:29:07,492 --> 01:29:10,293 Speaker 19: enjoy all these sorts of things. So I worry less 1796 01:29:10,333 --> 01:29:13,612 Speaker 19: about whether it's kind of good or bad. But did 1797 01:29:13,612 --> 01:29:15,293 Speaker 19: I enjoy it? What did I learn from it? And 1798 01:29:15,372 --> 01:29:17,532 Speaker 19: like I said, I think the social experience, Like I'm 1799 01:29:17,572 --> 01:29:21,253 Speaker 19: not a big TV watcher. I think watching TV, and 1800 01:29:21,333 --> 01:29:23,852 Speaker 19: so I like just go out, go out for a meal, 1801 01:29:23,973 --> 01:29:26,532 Speaker 19: go meet people, go talk to people, have a chat 1802 01:29:26,572 --> 01:29:29,293 Speaker 19: about something, and I just think it's really healthy stuff. 1803 01:29:29,692 --> 01:29:31,933 Speaker 2: How do you feel about the expense of going to 1804 01:29:31,973 --> 01:29:32,412 Speaker 2: the movies? 1805 01:29:33,612 --> 01:29:36,652 Speaker 19: Well, I guess that, you know, I look at lots 1806 01:29:36,692 --> 01:29:39,293 Speaker 19: of people spend a lot of money on messages or 1807 01:29:39,333 --> 01:29:42,213 Speaker 19: facials or you know, all those sorts of things like 1808 01:29:42,293 --> 01:29:45,053 Speaker 19: we've got limited disposable income, and we spend on what 1809 01:29:45,093 --> 01:29:47,253 Speaker 19: we want, Like some people want to have two million 1810 01:29:47,253 --> 01:29:49,372 Speaker 19: dollar houses. I actually rather go to the movies and 1811 01:29:49,492 --> 01:29:52,412 Speaker 19: travel and walk and be out and about where people. 1812 01:29:52,452 --> 01:29:54,173 Speaker 19: I just think that's you know, it's all about how 1813 01:29:54,173 --> 01:29:55,412 Speaker 19: you spend your queen, isn't it. 1814 01:29:56,372 --> 01:29:59,612 Speaker 2: So what do you think will happen with Netflix buying, 1815 01:29:59,933 --> 01:30:01,932 Speaker 2: you know, one of the biggest movie companies in the 1816 01:30:01,933 --> 01:30:04,973 Speaker 2: world and trying to bring movies into the house. Do 1817 01:30:05,013 --> 01:30:06,852 Speaker 2: you think that will have an effect on the quality 1818 01:30:07,213 --> 01:30:08,692 Speaker 2: of the product. 1819 01:30:10,853 --> 01:30:13,932 Speaker 19: I don't think Marvel movies are renowned to be quality anyway. 1820 01:30:14,133 --> 01:30:17,053 Speaker 19: But oh look, it will be It'll just be the 1821 01:30:17,093 --> 01:30:20,692 Speaker 19: same old builge And I just think, yet again, it 1822 01:30:20,812 --> 01:30:24,333 Speaker 19: will just have a negative impact on young people. Yeah, 1823 01:30:24,452 --> 01:30:28,452 Speaker 19: I just think, you know, so many young people I've got, 1824 01:30:28,812 --> 01:30:31,093 Speaker 19: you know, my daughters so often will say I want 1825 01:30:31,133 --> 01:30:32,652 Speaker 19: to hang out with my friends, and they they just 1826 01:30:32,692 --> 01:30:33,572 Speaker 19: don't want to go out. 1827 01:30:33,772 --> 01:30:33,973 Speaker 9: You know. 1828 01:30:34,253 --> 01:30:37,772 Speaker 19: I do think that there's a complete connection with mental 1829 01:30:37,812 --> 01:30:40,213 Speaker 19: health and staying at home all the time. I don't 1830 01:30:40,253 --> 01:30:42,572 Speaker 19: think these things are good for people now. I just 1831 01:30:42,572 --> 01:30:45,452 Speaker 19: think of the society, we just need to be really 1832 01:30:46,253 --> 01:30:49,572 Speaker 19: combative and pushy about getting outside the door. 1833 01:30:50,293 --> 01:30:52,812 Speaker 2: Now, speaking of young people and getting outside the door, 1834 01:30:52,853 --> 01:30:54,812 Speaker 2: a lot of the texts are coming through saying I 1835 01:30:54,853 --> 01:30:57,133 Speaker 2: don't go to movies because there's a bunch of young 1836 01:30:57,173 --> 01:31:00,013 Speaker 2: people talking and being on their phones beside me in 1837 01:31:00,093 --> 01:31:03,532 Speaker 2: the movie, and it ruins my experience for me. Do 1838 01:31:03,572 --> 01:31:05,092 Speaker 2: you see a lot of that? Do you get annoyed 1839 01:31:05,133 --> 01:31:08,133 Speaker 2: by rude people? Because if I go to the movies 1840 01:31:08,173 --> 01:31:10,892 Speaker 2: and someone talking, I find it really hard. I have 1841 01:31:10,973 --> 01:31:14,612 Speaker 2: to basically go into a full mindfulness meditation just to 1842 01:31:14,652 --> 01:31:16,572 Speaker 2: concentrate on the movie to not get annoyed at the 1843 01:31:17,492 --> 01:31:20,333 Speaker 2: at you know, the selfishness of someone talking through a 1844 01:31:20,372 --> 01:31:22,732 Speaker 2: movie or or getting on their phone or whatever. 1845 01:31:24,692 --> 01:31:26,452 Speaker 19: I don't think it happens that often, but I have 1846 01:31:26,532 --> 01:31:29,053 Speaker 19: to be honest, you know, I think as soon as 1847 01:31:29,053 --> 01:31:31,532 Speaker 19: you reach fifty your parents that stuff goes pretty low. 1848 01:31:31,572 --> 01:31:34,092 Speaker 19: So I just say I'll be like it's happened twice 1849 01:31:34,133 --> 01:31:36,093 Speaker 19: after I'd be like, oh, excuse me, could you just 1850 01:31:36,173 --> 01:31:38,053 Speaker 19: quiet it down? Like I've noticed. 1851 01:31:37,973 --> 01:31:41,452 Speaker 2: That you'll have a word to you, You'll a word. 1852 01:31:41,692 --> 01:31:42,213 Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, I. 1853 01:31:43,893 --> 01:31:46,933 Speaker 19: Like this well annoying And I just tell people some 1854 01:31:47,093 --> 01:31:47,532 Speaker 19: all good with it? 1855 01:31:47,973 --> 01:31:50,852 Speaker 2: And and how do how dos that normally received both 1856 01:31:50,893 --> 01:31:52,692 Speaker 2: people never. 1857 01:31:52,572 --> 01:31:55,652 Speaker 19: Had an issue because I'm not impolite. Yeah, and you know, 1858 01:31:56,093 --> 01:32:00,052 Speaker 19: and often, you know, there's a communal audience feel of like, gosh, 1859 01:32:00,093 --> 01:32:02,013 Speaker 19: I wish this person would be a bit quite And 1860 01:32:02,053 --> 01:32:04,133 Speaker 19: you know, there's nothing wrong with the parting word of 1861 01:32:04,133 --> 01:32:07,372 Speaker 19: that's when people are having slung conversations or texting or something. 1862 01:32:07,612 --> 01:32:10,812 Speaker 19: It's rare, I think, And I don't think it's I 1863 01:32:10,853 --> 01:32:13,013 Speaker 19: don't think it's just young people who do that. I mean, 1864 01:32:13,053 --> 01:32:16,213 Speaker 19: I guess it's rude people across all ages, aren't they. 1865 01:32:16,893 --> 01:32:20,853 Speaker 3: Do you like the full, you know, commercial hoits type experience. 1866 01:32:20,893 --> 01:32:23,892 Speaker 3: Are you more in line with some of the smallest cinemas, 1867 01:32:23,933 --> 01:32:27,133 Speaker 3: the more bougie boutique ones I reckon? 1868 01:32:27,293 --> 01:32:29,532 Speaker 19: I like, so I would go to Lighthouse.

And the communal aspect of it is quite something. 1875 01:32:47,173 --> 01:32:49,732 Speaker 2: So well, people complain about other people being there. I 1876 01:32:49,772 --> 01:32:52,173 Speaker 2: went to the New Naked Gun movie and it was 1877 01:32:52,173 --> 01:32:55,012 Speaker 2: an a pact theater and everyone was laughing, and I'd 1878 01:32:55,053 --> 01:32:58,732 Speaker 2: sort of forgotten about that experience of just being for 1879 01:32:58,812 --> 01:33:02,973 Speaker 2: some reason, it's funnier because other people are laughing. This 1880 01:33:03,093 --> 01:33:05,532 Speaker 2: is the sort of the laughter of the theater can 1881 01:33:05,652 --> 01:33:06,093 Speaker 2: take over. 1882 01:33:07,213 --> 01:33:10,452 Speaker 19: Oh absolutely. I went of salt Burn and about four 1883 01:33:10,452 --> 01:33:12,932 Speaker 19: people left because they were so horrified. And I don't 1884 01:33:12,933 --> 01:33:14,572 Speaker 19: think I've ever enjoyed something more. 1885 01:33:15,133 --> 01:33:15,213 Speaker 9: So. 1886 01:33:15,293 --> 01:33:18,133 Speaker 19: I loved the moral outrage as well, Like that isn't it. 1887 01:33:18,333 --> 01:33:20,372 Speaker 19: You just get all those sorts of things going on 1888 01:33:20,412 --> 01:33:21,132 Speaker 19: in a cinema. 1889 01:33:22,093 --> 01:33:25,372 Speaker 3: Yeah, so no quietas that movie. I loved it, but yeah, 1890 01:33:25,452 --> 01:33:26,852 Speaker 3: that was there was a lot of scene. 1891 01:33:27,013 --> 01:33:29,452 Speaker 2: Well, salt Burn might be an example of how this 1892 01:33:29,532 --> 01:33:33,012 Speaker 2: could work because salt Burn was made by Amazon for streaming, 1893 01:33:33,053 --> 01:33:35,492 Speaker 2: but they did do a window in the movie theater 1894 01:33:35,652 --> 01:33:37,852 Speaker 2: so people that wanted to see that in the theater 1895 01:33:37,933 --> 01:33:38,452 Speaker 2: could see it. 1896 01:33:39,893 --> 01:33:43,852 Speaker 19: Yeah, and you know, maybe, like often the kind of 1897 01:33:43,853 --> 01:33:47,612 Speaker 19: these streaming networks will have a cinema release first and 1898 01:33:47,692 --> 01:33:50,732 Speaker 19: people can choose. But I just like I said, I 1899 01:33:51,013 --> 01:33:53,052 Speaker 19: you know, I don't want to sound kind of telling 1900 01:33:53,093 --> 01:33:55,412 Speaker 19: other people what to do, but I think it's just 1901 01:33:55,532 --> 01:33:58,452 Speaker 19: really unfortunate that it's just another way for people not 1902 01:33:58,492 --> 01:34:01,213 Speaker 19: to interact, how to the supermarket used to have to 1903 01:34:01,333 --> 01:34:04,572 Speaker 19: check out by everything online, Like, it's just kind of 1904 01:34:04,652 --> 01:34:06,053 Speaker 19: nice when people talk to each other. 1905 01:34:06,532 --> 01:34:07,492 Speaker 7: It's kind of good things. 1906 01:34:07,612 --> 01:34:09,532 Speaker 2: Yeah, even if it's just talking to the person behind 1907 01:34:09,612 --> 01:34:11,572 Speaker 2: the counter when you're buying the ticket and you know, 1908 01:34:11,612 --> 01:34:15,092 Speaker 2: getting out of the house and interacting with the people 1909 01:34:15,372 --> 01:34:18,453 Speaker 2: that you're not you know they're not they're not civilians 1910 01:34:18,452 --> 01:34:20,892 Speaker 2: for one of a better word. But just the getting 1911 01:34:20,893 --> 01:34:23,372 Speaker 2: out of the house, the dealing with the real world, 1912 01:34:24,053 --> 01:34:27,253 Speaker 2: buying a ticket, sitting down experience of other people. I 1913 01:34:27,293 --> 01:34:30,892 Speaker 2: absolutely love it. I mean there's there's also thank you 1914 01:34:30,933 --> 01:34:33,253 Speaker 2: so much for your call. Care really appreciate it. Enjoy 1915 01:34:33,293 --> 01:34:38,492 Speaker 2: the movies. But if one's another example that's been incredibly successful, 1916 01:34:38,652 --> 01:34:40,932 Speaker 2: and it was made by Apple for their streaming service, 1917 01:34:41,293 --> 01:34:43,253 Speaker 2: but it was huge in the box office and they're 1918 01:34:43,333 --> 01:34:45,333 Speaker 2: only just bringing out it, said, one of the longest 1919 01:34:45,412 --> 01:34:49,492 Speaker 2: windows in movie theaters of any movie in recent times 1920 01:34:49,492 --> 01:34:53,213 Speaker 2: before it goes into you know, view at home whatever 1921 01:34:53,213 --> 01:34:56,412 Speaker 2: they call it. And that was made for it by 1922 01:34:56,412 --> 01:35:00,333 Speaker 2: a streaming service. Yeah. Yeah, but obviously Apple's made a 1923 01:35:00,333 --> 01:35:01,933 Speaker 2: lot of money in the movie theater as well. So, 1924 01:35:02,173 --> 01:35:06,372 Speaker 2: I mean, but what's what's concerning about it is that 1925 01:35:06,532 --> 01:35:10,972 Speaker 2: the co CEO of Netflix has basically said we've bought 1926 01:35:11,013 --> 01:35:12,972 Speaker 2: Warner Brothers to get people out of the movie theater 1927 01:35:13,372 --> 01:35:16,572 Speaker 2: and sitting on the couch watching how he didn't say this, 1928 01:35:16,652 --> 01:35:19,372 Speaker 2: but in my opinion, our watered down version of cinema. 1929 01:35:19,933 --> 01:35:21,973 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's pretty much what he did say. I mean, 1930 01:35:22,013 --> 01:35:25,372 Speaker 3: just quickly, because we've got the messages to play. But 1931 01:35:25,452 --> 01:35:28,852 Speaker 3: the idea of directors, great directors that we know and love, 1932 01:35:28,933 --> 01:35:33,612 Speaker 3: the Scorsese, Spelberg's, the Nolans. The idea that most of 1933 01:35:33,652 --> 01:35:36,053 Speaker 3: these movies, it looks like, are just going to be 1934 01:35:36,133 --> 01:35:38,173 Speaker 3: streamed and you watch them at home. I mean, that's 1935 01:35:38,213 --> 01:35:39,412 Speaker 3: the death of the great director. 1936 01:35:39,492 --> 01:35:39,652 Speaker 4: Right. 1937 01:35:39,692 --> 01:35:42,932 Speaker 3: We know these directors because they are so passionate about 1938 01:35:42,933 --> 01:35:45,372 Speaker 3: that full on experience. And you talk about Red Notice 1939 01:35:45,532 --> 01:35:48,093 Speaker 3: or any other of the Netflix originals that I've seen, 1940 01:35:48,133 --> 01:35:50,612 Speaker 3: I'd have no idea who the director was, no idea. 1941 01:35:50,253 --> 01:35:52,452 Speaker 2: Well, you know that Christopher Nolan, that director and if 1942 01:35:52,492 --> 01:35:56,572 Speaker 2: you don't know who he is, director's inception The Dark Night, 1943 01:35:57,372 --> 01:36:00,772 Speaker 2: so Oppenhamer is the most recent one.

Although I will say The Irishman, come on 1973 01:37:17,532 --> 01:37:19,852 Speaker 2: that make it that young afying of Robert Denaro did 1974 01:37:19,853 --> 01:37:21,852 Speaker 2: not work.

School holidays kind of you know fixture. 1985 01:37:52,812 --> 01:37:54,892 Speaker 18: But I think if you, like you said before, if 1986 01:37:54,893 --> 01:37:58,053 Speaker 18: you want the full experience, nothing beats the cinema. But 1987 01:37:58,133 --> 01:38:00,572 Speaker 18: the cinema has become so expensive now. 1988 01:38:01,173 --> 01:38:02,333 Speaker 11: Like I'll give you an example. 1989 01:38:02,452 --> 01:38:04,852 Speaker 18: The last school holidays, I took my two nephews my 1990 01:38:05,013 --> 01:38:07,732 Speaker 18: son and myself to the movies and it was one 1991 01:38:07,812 --> 01:38:12,013 Speaker 18: hundred and thirty bucks and that was just tickets and popcorns. 1992 01:38:12,133 --> 01:38:13,093 Speaker 4: Is that more people do? 1993 01:38:13,253 --> 01:38:13,412 Speaker 7: Say? 1994 01:38:13,452 --> 01:38:13,732 Speaker 2: Jels? 1995 01:38:13,853 --> 01:38:15,612 Speaker 4: Is that four people? 1996 01:38:16,013 --> 01:38:17,973 Speaker 18: It's three kids in one adult and that's you know, 1997 01:38:18,053 --> 01:38:21,692 Speaker 18: that's not an economic reality for most people. So you 1998 01:38:21,732 --> 01:38:25,572 Speaker 18: can see why Netflix has its you know, has its prose. 1999 01:38:25,732 --> 01:38:29,413 Speaker 18: But but for me, I'm old school born in the seventies. 2000 01:38:29,492 --> 01:38:33,252 Speaker 18: I love going to the movies, you know, loud noises 2001 01:38:33,412 --> 01:38:37,852 Speaker 18: and hearing the soundtrack and it's it's an experience, but 2002 01:38:38,372 --> 01:38:42,532 Speaker 18: it's become an increasingly expensive Do. 2003 01:38:42,492 --> 01:38:46,772 Speaker 2: You think there's anything in my argument that Netflix is 2004 01:38:46,812 --> 01:38:49,932 Speaker 2: a lower quality of product than the movies, not all 2005 01:38:49,973 --> 01:38:52,973 Speaker 2: of them, but definitely at the higher. 2006 01:38:53,173 --> 01:38:55,812 Speaker 18: When yeah, when you look at all of the we 2007 01:38:56,173 --> 01:38:58,652 Speaker 18: quite often do the scrolling on a Saturday, what can 2008 01:38:58,692 --> 01:39:02,533 Speaker 18: we watch?

Most of 2012 01:39:11,572 --> 01:39:14,333 Speaker 18: it are actors you've never heard of, or it's actors 2013 01:39:14,372 --> 01:39:17,333 Speaker 18: that you know, probably have passed their best before date, 2014 01:39:17,412 --> 01:39:20,692 Speaker 18: the best by date by date. Yeah that's not being rude, 2015 01:39:20,692 --> 01:39:24,133 Speaker 18: but you know, I'm just saying, but so yeah, it 2016 01:39:24,173 --> 01:39:27,492 Speaker 18: will never beat it.

Is 2096 01:43:15,013 --> 01:43:16,612 Speaker 3: it still a big thing for you to go to 2097 01:43:16,652 --> 01:43:19,213 Speaker 3: an actual cinema or are you okay sitting at home 2098 01:43:19,253 --> 01:43:22,052 Speaker 3: and watching Netflix. We say this after the big deal. 2099 01:43:22,133 --> 01:43:25,093 Speaker 3: Netflix is going to acquire Warner Brothers and HBO Max 2100 01:43:25,133 --> 01:43:27,053 Speaker 3: and a one hundred and twenty five billion dollar deal. 2101 01:43:27,253 --> 01:43:30,972 Speaker 3: But here's the quote that Netflix co CEO Ted Sarandous said. 2102 01:43:31,013 --> 01:43:35,093 Speaker 3: He said Netflix was saving Hollywood and that movies going 2103 01:43:35,133 --> 01:43:37,532 Speaker 3: to the movies is an outdated concept and an out 2104 01:43:37,572 --> 01:43:38,533 Speaker 3: modern idea. 2105 01:43:38,732 --> 01:43:40,812 Speaker 2: How I sort of agree with this person when I 2106 01:43:40,893 --> 01:43:44,973 Speaker 2: was slagging off Netflix and saying that, you know, their 2107 01:43:45,013 --> 01:43:47,133 Speaker 2: quality wasn't as good. That's not across the board. I 2108 01:43:47,173 --> 01:43:50,053 Speaker 2: think generally the quality is worse than Netflix, but they 2109 01:43:50,053 --> 01:43:53,053 Speaker 2: do have some great stuff on there. I can't find 2110 01:43:53,053 --> 01:43:54,612 Speaker 2: the tests of some may coming through. But this was 2111 01:43:54,652 --> 01:43:56,612 Speaker 2: just basically saying they sat down and watched the first 2112 01:43:57,253 --> 01:44:02,132 Speaker 2: four episodes of Stranger Things series five, and we're thoroughly 2113 01:44:02,173 --> 01:44:04,532 Speaker 2: engrossed the whole way through. Yeah, yeah, so was I. 2114 01:44:04,532 --> 01:44:07,532 Speaker 2: I really really enjoyed Stranger Things, and I watch a 2115 01:44:07,532 --> 01:44:09,173 Speaker 2: lot of stuff. But I just if I'm looking at 2116 01:44:09,173 --> 01:44:14,133 Speaker 2: Warner Brothers and the properties that Netflix now owns by 2117 01:44:14,173 --> 01:44:16,173 Speaker 2: owning Water Brothers, and I was thinking about the history 2118 01:44:16,213 --> 01:44:18,133 Speaker 2: of the movies that have made at Warner Brothers and 2119 01:44:18,173 --> 01:44:21,853 Speaker 2: the culture of making great movies at that company, primarily 2120 01:44:21,893 --> 01:44:24,692 Speaker 2: for the movie theater. I just can't see Netflix making 2121 01:44:25,093 --> 01:44:28,572 Speaker 2: The Dark Knight or The Matrix or Goodfellas or The 2122 01:44:28,612 --> 01:44:32,053 Speaker 2: Shawshack Redemption or Blade Runner or The Exorcist or two 2123 01:44:32,093 --> 01:44:33,572 Speaker 2: thousand and one. I mean, this is going back a 2124 01:44:33,572 --> 01:44:35,852 Speaker 2: long way with some of these ones with Warner Brothers 2125 01:44:36,013 --> 01:44:38,732 Speaker 2: that departed, the Lord of the Rings trilogy that was 2126 01:44:38,772 --> 01:44:42,732 Speaker 2: New Line but owned by Warner Brothers. Yeah, unforgiven, Harry 2127 01:44:42,772 --> 01:44:48,293 Speaker 2: Potter movies, maybe the Fugitive Hate Gravity. I mean, there's 2128 01:44:48,333 --> 01:44:50,372 Speaker 2: a lot in there. It's just grabbing some Warner Brothers 2129 01:44:50,412 --> 01:44:53,932 Speaker 2: movies that just seem more cinematic to me than what 2130 01:44:54,053 --> 01:44:57,372 Speaker 2: Netflix does. And there's no doubt the Netflix has rejuvenated 2131 01:44:57,412 --> 01:45:00,133 Speaker 2: the TV series since they first did you know, they 2132 01:45:00,213 --> 01:45:02,732 Speaker 2: decided to make their own Netflix products with House of 2133 01:45:02,812 --> 01:45:06,333 Speaker 2: Cards and such. They have. There's been some fantastic Netflix 2134 01:45:06,372 --> 01:45:08,973 Speaker 2: TV series. But I don't think that they've now the 2135 01:45:09,093 --> 01:45:12,372 Speaker 2: movie yet because they pump them out and I just 2136 01:45:12,412 --> 01:45:15,732 Speaker 2: don't want to see some of these properties that are movies. 2137 01:45:15,772 --> 01:45:18,492 Speaker 2: I mean, do you want to watch a Netflix Shawshank Redemption. 2138 01:45:18,532 --> 01:45:20,852 Speaker 2: They'll have the rights of that now turn into a 2139 01:45:21,372 --> 01:45:25,772 Speaker 2: TV series where it's okay for about two episodes, then 2140 01:45:25,772 --> 01:45:28,293 Speaker 2: it just goes into autopilot for about five just to 2141 01:45:28,333 --> 01:45:28,932 Speaker 2: extend it out. 2142 01:45:28,973 --> 01:45:31,133 Speaker 3: That sounds criminal, But what do you say one hundred 2143 01:45:31,133 --> 01:45:33,133 Speaker 3: and eighty ten eighty is that number to call? 2144 01:45:33,893 --> 01:45:34,133 Speaker 7: Kate? 2145 01:45:34,532 --> 01:45:36,253 Speaker 2: Are your thoughts on the on the flex? 2146 01:45:37,333 --> 01:45:39,692 Speaker 16: Oh, well, we go to the movies all the time. 2147 01:45:40,253 --> 01:45:44,133 Speaker 16: We're in our Fix season seventies and we're in Juneedain 2148 01:45:44,492 --> 01:45:47,173 Speaker 16: and the advantages is that they get to know in 2149 01:45:47,213 --> 01:45:49,572 Speaker 16: the theater, they know our coffee orders and everything. 2150 01:45:49,772 --> 01:45:51,093 Speaker 2: Are you going on?

And yeah, 2174 01:46:56,973 --> 01:46:59,372 Speaker 16: and we've met quite a few people that couldn't even 2175 01:46:59,492 --> 01:47:01,772 Speaker 16: look smaller of course, but we've met quite a few 2176 01:47:01,772 --> 01:47:04,612 Speaker 16: people that you meet it for the movies and yeah, 2177 01:47:04,772 --> 01:47:06,333 Speaker 16: that's great, we love it. 2178 01:47:06,572 --> 01:47:07,412 Speaker 4: You're fantastic. 2179 01:47:07,452 --> 01:47:09,093 Speaker 3: I mean, just the idea going down to the bar 2180 01:47:09,173 --> 01:47:11,012 Speaker 3: and discussing the movie that you've just watched. 2181 01:47:11,053 --> 01:47:13,053 Speaker 4: Love there. It's still part of that experience, right. 2182 01:47:13,053 --> 01:47:14,812 Speaker 2: I've just thought of a Netflix movie that I thought 2183 01:47:14,853 --> 01:47:17,773 Speaker 2: was good. The First Knives Out, Oh yes, The Secondknives 2184 01:47:17,772 --> 01:47:21,093 Speaker 2: Out was a horror. It was terrible, made no sense 2185 01:47:21,133 --> 01:47:25,293 Speaker 2: and they made the absolute criminal plot point that you're 2186 01:47:25,293 --> 01:47:28,492 Speaker 2: not allowed to use in a murder mits mystery the 2187 01:47:28,532 --> 01:47:31,372 Speaker 2: Agatha Christie outlined a long time ago. I'm not going 2188 01:47:31,412 --> 01:47:32,812 Speaker 2: to say it in case you watched it, but. 2189 01:47:32,732 --> 01:47:33,692 Speaker 4: That was a glass onion? 2190 01:47:33,772 --> 01:47:33,893 Speaker 17: Was it? 2191 01:47:33,973 --> 01:47:34,053 Speaker 10: Ye? 2192 01:47:34,173 --> 01:47:37,013 Speaker 2: Glass Onion? And they've got the new ones coming out, 2193 01:47:37,053 --> 01:47:39,933 Speaker 2: the New Knives out, so hopefully it's good, but I 2194 01:47:39,933 --> 01:47:41,972 Speaker 2: think that would be more in juryaboil in the movie theater. 2195 01:47:42,093 --> 01:47:44,532 Speaker 2: Then yeah, but yeah, they do they you know, it's 2196 01:47:44,572 --> 01:47:46,772 Speaker 2: not to say that everything they make is rubbish. 2197 01:47:46,893 --> 01:47:49,453 Speaker 3: Klaus was amazing. Did you ever watch Klaus the animated? 2198 01:47:49,812 --> 01:47:53,572 Speaker 3: That was a brilliant Netflix creation, but again few and 2199 01:47:53,612 --> 01:47:55,372 Speaker 3: far between. I think that came out five years ago. 2200 01:47:55,492 --> 01:47:57,133 Speaker 3: Got to take a quick break, but taking more of 2201 01:47:57,133 --> 01:47:59,572 Speaker 3: your calls, O eight hundred and eighty ten eighty.

You have pushed back on me and found a 2211 01:48:19,772 --> 01:48:23,092 Speaker 2: few Netflix films that are of a high quality. 2212 01:48:23,173 --> 01:48:23,372 Speaker 7: Yep. 2213 01:48:23,412 --> 01:48:24,372 Speaker 4: So I've just gone through. 2214 01:48:24,452 --> 01:48:26,492 Speaker 3: So the First Knives out, as you mentioned, that was good, 2215 01:48:26,572 --> 01:48:28,773 Speaker 3: uncut gems with Adam Sandler. 2216 01:48:28,492 --> 01:48:31,013 Speaker 2: Fantastic, grateful, It's so stressful. 2217 01:48:30,732 --> 01:48:31,412 Speaker 4: Very stressful. 2218 01:48:31,412 --> 01:48:34,132 Speaker 3: All Quite on the Western Front was a Netflix original 2219 01:48:34,133 --> 01:48:37,532 Speaker 3: that was fantastic. I'll put Extraction in there with Chris 2220 01:48:37,572 --> 01:48:39,133 Speaker 3: hemswith I really like that. 2221 01:48:39,532 --> 01:48:40,412 Speaker 2: Both those movies are good. 2222 01:48:40,452 --> 01:48:40,652 Speaker 7: Yeah. 2223 01:48:40,652 --> 01:48:43,773 Speaker 3: And Triple Frontier was another war one that was fantastic 2224 01:48:43,812 --> 01:48:47,932 Speaker 3: and that had just been with me Oscar Isaac ben 2225 01:48:48,093 --> 01:48:51,013 Speaker 3: Fleck and Charlie Hunham and it and Pedro a young 2226 01:48:51,053 --> 01:48:52,972 Speaker 3: Pedro Pascal. But I really enjoyed that one too. 2227 01:48:54,013 --> 01:49:00,652 Speaker 22: And your thoughts, I'm just ringing because I welcome more 2228 01:49:00,732 --> 01:49:04,133 Speaker 22: things coming into my house so I can watch them 2229 01:49:04,173 --> 01:49:09,012 Speaker 22: on the television. I lost my husband quite young, and 2230 01:49:10,013 --> 01:49:12,852 Speaker 22: I tend to not want to go out so much, 2231 01:49:13,412 --> 01:49:16,213 Speaker 22: and I do watch quite a lot of the TV, 2232 01:49:16,333 --> 01:49:20,333 Speaker 22: and most of it's trash. I usually it usually has 2233 01:49:20,372 --> 01:49:23,892 Speaker 22: to be reality TV. I enjoy that most of all. 2234 01:49:23,933 --> 01:49:26,733 Speaker 22: And there have been some good ones, as David Attenborough 2235 01:49:27,173 --> 01:49:30,372 Speaker 22: there was a Flight to the Moon like those real 2236 01:49:30,412 --> 01:49:34,772 Speaker 22: life ones. But you know, there are people that can't 2237 01:49:34,933 --> 01:49:38,253 Speaker 22: just get out. I've done things to myself. I've damaged 2238 01:49:38,293 --> 01:49:40,293 Speaker 22: myself that they can't get in and out very well 2239 01:49:40,372 --> 01:49:44,372 Speaker 22: to the pictures, and you're forgetting that. But we're still 2240 01:49:44,372 --> 01:49:46,253 Speaker 22: here and we've still got brains going. 2241 01:49:46,973 --> 01:49:49,293 Speaker 2: That's a shame that you can't get out in but 2242 01:49:49,333 --> 01:49:51,812 Speaker 2: the But and if they're in the movie theater, they 2243 01:49:51,812 --> 01:49:54,772 Speaker 2: still make it to to in front of you, they 2244 01:49:54,772 --> 01:49:57,253 Speaker 2: still make it into the streamers. Eventually, there's just a 2245 01:49:57,293 --> 01:50:00,372 Speaker 2: longer window. And and the idea is that that that 2246 01:50:00,412 --> 01:50:02,412 Speaker 2: we're really talking about is that that Netflix will then 2247 01:50:02,492 --> 01:50:06,933 Speaker 2: be in charge artistically of the of the properties that 2248 01:50:06,973 --> 01:50:10,412 Speaker 2: Warner Brothers own. So I guess the concern for us 2249 01:50:10,492 --> 01:50:15,093 Speaker 2: is that the Netflix will lower the quality of the 2250 01:50:15,093 --> 01:50:18,772 Speaker 2: films because they're not being made directly for cinema. But 2251 01:50:19,093 --> 01:50:21,652 Speaker 2: you will get to see them, you know, right now, 2252 01:50:21,692 --> 01:50:24,452 Speaker 2: you do get to see them eventually, that might just 2253 01:50:24,492 --> 01:50:27,333 Speaker 2: be three months after they come out in the theater exactly. 2254 01:50:27,572 --> 01:50:29,812 Speaker 22: And I know there will be problems like that, but 2255 01:50:30,612 --> 01:50:33,852 Speaker 22: I wouldn't go down to the pictures now. I wouldn't 2256 01:50:33,893 --> 01:50:36,492 Speaker 22: be comfortable. I've done various things like breaking my arm 2257 01:50:36,532 --> 01:50:39,293 Speaker 22: and things like that, and I just wouldn't go down 2258 01:50:39,333 --> 01:50:41,093 Speaker 22: and I'd miss out on it. And so you just 2259 01:50:41,173 --> 01:50:44,972 Speaker 22: have to tick. There are people that could do at home. 2260 01:50:45,652 --> 01:50:47,892 Speaker 4: Yep, it's fair end. Thank you very much for your 2261 01:50:47,893 --> 01:50:50,293 Speaker 4: phone call, Sierra. How are you. 2262 01:50:51,973 --> 01:50:56,172 Speaker 23: I haven't mentioned Tyler, excuse me. I've got some advice 2263 01:50:56,253 --> 01:51:00,293 Speaker 23: for grandparents. And there's cost of living crisis. So by 2264 01:51:00,333 --> 01:51:04,013 Speaker 23: the time they've paid for the tickets for the grandparents, 2265 01:51:04,412 --> 01:51:07,812 Speaker 23: the grandchildren, the food during the picture, and the parking, 2266 01:51:08,412 --> 01:51:11,253 Speaker 23: probably spends about one hundred and fifty dollars right just 2267 01:51:11,333 --> 01:51:14,612 Speaker 23: for one movie. So my solution is, I haven't been 2268 01:51:14,612 --> 01:51:16,252 Speaker 23: to the pictures for fifteen years? 2269 01:51:16,652 --> 01:51:16,972 Speaker 16: How many? 2270 01:51:17,173 --> 01:51:17,932 Speaker 9: How many years? 2271 01:51:18,133 --> 01:51:19,133 Speaker 2: Family is do you say, sir? 2272 01:51:19,652 --> 01:51:22,173 Speaker 11: But fifteen fifteen, one? 2273 01:51:22,253 --> 01:51:22,452 Speaker 7: Five? 2274 01:51:22,492 --> 01:51:26,452 Speaker 23: Ok, yep, yeah, yeah, because you don't have to. All 2275 01:51:26,492 --> 01:51:28,652 Speaker 23: you have to do is get a DVD player. You 2276 01:51:28,692 --> 01:51:31,013 Speaker 23: can watch as many movies as you want, only for 2277 01:51:31,093 --> 01:51:33,772 Speaker 23: three dollars each at the charity op shop. So I've 2278 01:51:33,772 --> 01:51:37,452 Speaker 23: got over one hundred DVDs. And what the grandparents should 2279 01:51:37,492 --> 01:51:40,213 Speaker 23: do instead of spending one hundred and fifty dollars, take 2280 01:51:40,293 --> 01:51:42,452 Speaker 23: the kids along to a knock shop that they've got 2281 01:51:42,452 --> 01:51:45,732 Speaker 23: a big children's section of DVDs. Let them pick out three, 2282 01:51:46,053 --> 01:51:48,933 Speaker 23: you pick out three.
