Speaker 7: And just like that, Donald J. Trump has become the

16
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 7: forty seventh President of the United States. This has just

17
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 7: happened in the last couple of minutes. He has taken

18
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 7: the declaration, he has taken the oath on Capitol Hell,

19
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:17,759
Speaker 7: He's shaken Biden's hand.

20
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,759
Speaker 8: Carmala Harris is there, she's smiling, she's given a wave,

21
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 8: she's shaken his hand to the transfer of power has

22
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 8: happened in the United States, and we'll have more on

23
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 8: that throughout the show this morning.

24
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 7: Also, whether he's going to send troops to the border

25
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 7: with Mexico to build the wall. Apparently that is a

26
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,559
Speaker 7: live issue. We're also talking to the Prime Minister after

27
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:40,040
Speaker 7: seven thirty this morning, company liquidations on the agenda, Catherine

28
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 7: Field and France and Rod Little in the UK brech

29
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,919
Speaker 7: eight after six News talks. He'd be another ozempic story

30
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 7: out this morning. Now that's the fat to skinny drug

31
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 7: that the Real Housewives are taking in Beverly Hills. And

32
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 7: you know they get the skinny ozempic face. Anyway. We

33
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 7: just love a quick solution to all of our problems,

34
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 7: don't we. And there's new research out this morning. It's

35
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 7: basically saying they've looked at two million people. It is

36
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 7: the wonder drug that it says it is. It does

37
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 7: what it says on the label. It will help people

38
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 7: shed loads of weight and the net benefit is basically

39
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 7: worth it. Have you ever wondered how we got so fat?

40
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 7: We are massive, and I'm not just talking about New Zealand.

41
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 7: I'm talking about most of the western world. We are

42
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 7: bulging at the seams. If you've been to the mall

43
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 7: lately you would have seen this. Everywhere. We're buying five

44
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 7: xl jeens and tense sized T shirts. We're a funny

45
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 7: little species, aren't we. We get rid of poverty and

46
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 7: we start gorging ourselves to death. Literally, for the first

47
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 7: time in modern history, life expectancy in the developed world

48
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 7: is going backwards. Now, there are some people with medical conditions,

49
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,679
Speaker 7: they've got thyroid issues, taking certain medications, who can't help

50
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 7: their weight. But for the vast majority of us who've

51
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 7: ballooned in size over the past forty odd years, what

52
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 7: is the excuse exactly? It's not evil fast food giants.

53
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 7: It's self control. We're through self control in the bin.

54
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 7: We banished it as a concept, and we blamed everybody

55
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 7: but ourselves. And now, instead of relearning that long forgotten art,

56
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 7: we have a magic injection. While ah a zimpac will

57
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 7: solve all of our problems, and maybe, given the starter

58
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 7: out today, it actually will. Everyone wants a quick fix.

59
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 7: Everything has to happen. Now, you've got your uber eates

60
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 7: coming in five minutes. Where is it? The world is

61
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 7: a click away, You've got instant gratification at the skull

62
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 7: of a thumb. Is everything so easy in life? And

63
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 7: should it be?

64
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 9: If?

65
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 7: How will we learn? How will we evolve? How will

66
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 7: we advance as a species. If it is, I suppose

67
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 7: you could argue the fact that we've created such a

68
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 7: revolutionary weight loss druggers proof we are advancing, But creating

69
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 7: a drug to fix an obesity problem that we also

70
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 7: created hardly seems advanced. And in the long run, the quick,

71
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 7: easy solution isn't always the best one.

72
00:03:58,640 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 9: Is it?

73
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 2: News of the world in ninety seconds.

74
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 7: As we've been saying, the big day has arrived. No

75
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 7: one more excited about this than singer Lee Greenwood.

76
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 10: And it could have been outside.

77
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 11: It's a little chilly ear not terrible. I mean it's

78
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 11: cold in Tennessee, where we have two So we're waiting

79
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 11: the president's arrival and I will sing for him before

80
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 11: he signs his document that makes him the forty seventh

81
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,159
Speaker 11: president of the United States.

82
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 7: Trump's former pre secretary, Kayla mcinanney, has an insight into

83
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 7: have it will go down.

84
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 12: He creates moments, and we saw that on the campaign

85
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 12: trail with the garbage truck. We saw that with the

86
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 12: Madison Square Garden rally, and now we're going to see

87
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 12: it today and I think he wants to send a

88
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:45,279
Speaker 12: message today. I am doing my second term big and bold.

89
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,280
Speaker 7: Yes, he certainly started off that way, didn't they and

90
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 7: the Tic pros, well, that will turned up.

91
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,919
Speaker 5: We have Tim Cook, Mark Zuckerberg, I think I believe

92
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,280
Speaker 5: that was his wife there walking in, and Priscilla Channis

93
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,719
Speaker 5: his wife. We have Jeff Bezos and his soon to

94
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 5: be wife, Lauren Sanchez, So that's also been a part

95
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:05,920
Speaker 5: of this story.

96
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 7: Away from the inauguration, but still with Trump, Palestine worried

97
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 7: what his presidency will mean for them.

98
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:16,119
Speaker 13: The whole group of his new administration on the isshoe

99
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 13: of Palistine are totally biased and to Israeli views, and

100
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,040
Speaker 13: that is dangerous when you have a fascist government in Israel.

101
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 7: What about the man himself, Well, he's already in fine form.

102
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 6: This week we achieved an epic She's Fire agreement as

103
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 6: a first step forward lasting peace in.

104
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:32,840
Speaker 2: The Middle East.

105
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,719
Speaker 6: And this agreement could only have happened as a result

106
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,040
Speaker 6: of our historic victory in November.

107
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 7: And that is your news of the world in ninety seconds,

108
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,599
Speaker 7: just gone twelve after six Now very interesting what Biden

109
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 7: has done in the last gasps of his presidency, literally

110
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 7: the last minutes before they hand it over. He has

111
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 7: issued some preemptive pardons and you would have already heard

112
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 7: earlier in the last hour about Faultchi, you know, the

113
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 7: COVID doctor, the jan six committee members. Well, what he's

114
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 7: done and snuck through in the last minutes is his brother, Well,

115
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 7: his two brothers, James and Frank, his sister Valerie, and

116
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 7: all of their spouses have been given preemptive pardons. And

117
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 7: you have to ask the question for what what are

118
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 7: they being part and preemptively pardoned for? What Henu's crimes

119
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 7: have they committed. Apparently there was some potential issue around

120
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 7: the brothers with Lyne to Congress about the Biden Hunter

121
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 7: Biden thing, But there you go. He has used his

122
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 7: last moments of his presidency to basically give a free

123
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,120

Speaker 7: joining us, the inauguration is happening right now. Donald Trump

130
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,279
Speaker 7: is returned to the White House and he is apparently

131
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 7: going to be sending troops to the border with Mexico

132
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 7: to help start building and constructing a wall there. We're

133
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 7: going to talk to our reporter out of Washington, d C.

134
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 7: After seven this morning, Briggs Meders with US Deven Funds Management. Greg.

135
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 7: Good morning to you. Good morning right now, let's start

136
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 7: with the US markets obviously closed today, Martin Luther King

137
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 7: a day in the United States, but investors already digesting

138
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 7: some of those implications of those executive orders that he's

139
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 7: getting through.

140
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 14: Yeah, they certainly are.

141
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 15: So.

142
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 14: Yeah, the markets are closed in terms of the US,

143
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 14: but hey, European markets are pushing higher, and you've got

144
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 14: the futures trading that they're pointing higher as well. So

145
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 14: I guess we'll see see tomorrow when they're when they reopen.

146
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 14: But obviously, market reaction following the election result more recently

147
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 14: leading up to thermalation has been positive. I guess the

148
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 14: key thing for markets might be the unpredictability of the right,

149
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 14: and if the pre party anything to go by, there

150
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 14: could be a bit of that. You know, the village

151
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 14: people bang out YMCA and dancing alongside Trump. It's going

152
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 14: to be a interesting for market perspective, but only at

153
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 14: the moment.

154
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're looking.

155
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 14: Obviously investors are looking at the pro business aspects, you know,

156
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 14: lower regulation, lower taxes, and it's obviously we're remembering the

157
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 14: stock market did quite well under Trump last time around.

158
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 14: Actual one thing just looking at the ceremony as well.

159
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 14: I know he's not wearing as a red typhon once

160
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 14: bipartisan purple, so maybe that's.

161
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 7: A new era there.

162
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 14: But speech is underway and it's down the business, isn't

163
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 14: it with these executive orders, So I think that's going

164
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 14: to be something that investors are looking at. He said

165
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 14: he's going to sign up to a record a record number,

166
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,559
Speaker 14: perhaps more than one hundred. And you look at what

167
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,079
Speaker 14: he did in his first year. He did fifty five

168
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,439
Speaker 14: in total, so he's going to be going pretty hard then.

169
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 14: And Biden he did just seventeen in the hours after

170
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 14: he took the oath. But as already suggestions, he might

171
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 14: have to get busy, and the idea that he's a

172
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 14: lane duck present potentially obviously one term and he might

173
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 14: struggle to get much through after the mid terms in

174
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 14: two years time. So yeah, we know what he's going

175
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 14: to be focused on. Immigration that'll be won. They have

176
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 14: said there's a no price tag with this and you've

177
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 14: mentioned the troops on the border. I think the cost

178
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,680
Speaker 14: of his policies will be something that investors look at

179
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 14: at some point, perhaps for another day, because he's also

180
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 14: looking to increase tariffs. It'll be just interesting to see

181
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 14: how far he goes here, whether he invokes sort of

182
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 14: special powers, or whether he waters it down a bit.

183
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,199
Speaker 14: You I suppose we can look at the reaction the

184
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,439
Speaker 14: currency markets. At the moment, the US dollars down over

185
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 14: one percent. He's looking at deregulating sectors, of course, including cryptos.

186
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 14: Seeing MILANIUS, she's launched her own cryptos as Trump, and

187
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,439
Speaker 14: he wants to make the US the bitcoin capital of

188
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 14: the world. So just on that note, bitcoin overnight had

189
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 14: a record high around one hundred and ten thousand US

190
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 14: And I think another big one for markets Ryan will

191
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 14: be the US all and gas industry. And part of

192
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 14: his promises to usher in a new era of American

193
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 14: energy dominance, so you expect that'll be in his.

194
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,200
Speaker 7: First day executive orders.

195
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 14: But he also wants to roll back Biden's climate change initiatives.

196
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 14: So yeah, potentially good friendge companies, potentially not so good

197
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 14: for renewables. And I know it also there's a few

198
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 14: of the big tech execs. You've got Zuckerberg thereous he's

199
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,439
Speaker 14: got to take in a shining into our eyes. It

200
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 14: will also linked that to the need for energy, saying

201
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 14: that lots of powers needed, We need lots of power plants.

202
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 14: And you see in the last few days that youth

203
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 14: needs to double the energy that currently has. There's implications

204
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:24,839
Speaker 14: for energy markets. But yeah, the initial stages of his

205
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:26,959
Speaker 14: presidency look to be action packs.

206
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 7: So yeah, buckle up. Yeah, interesting one because obviously he's

207
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 7: so hard to predict, which makes it difficult for markets

208
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 7: to try and work out exactly what he's going to do.

209
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 7: What's a bargaining chip and what's real looks like it's

210
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 7: going to be a big year for merger and acquisitions.

211
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 7: We've already seen plenty of chat around a couple of

212
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 7: big players here, right, Yeah.

213
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 14: That's right, that's what we have predictions for this year.

214
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 14: So we're talking about I suppose a soft landing for

215
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 14: the for the global economy, or suppose the cliche at

216
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 14: the moment there's no landing, but also boring costs coming down. Now,

217
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 14: it's early days, but we have seen some chat already.

218
00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 14: So so you look at Rio Chinda, that's a big

219
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,959
Speaker 14: miner held talks with Glencore. Evidently that would be a

220
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 14: huge deal. That would be north of two hundred and

221
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 14: fifty billion US dollars, the combined group with eclipsed PHPs,

222
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,319
Speaker 14: the world's largest mining group. These two had talks a

223
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 14: couple of years years ago. Oh sorry, around a decade ago. Sorry,

224
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 14: but that was more about iron. All the driving forces

225
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 14: time around could be copper. Between them, they produced one

226
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 14: point eight million tons of the stuff, seercent of global

227
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 14: copper supply. And we know about the transition and coppers

228
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 14: of vital metal used in powering evs, wind turbines, solar

229
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 14: panels and the like. Even though Trump is view clear

230
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 14: on some of these things, and meanwe it's quite a

231
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 14: challenge to get new ones of scale and was also

232
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 14: seeing activity elsewhere also across the Tasman we've got private

233
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,960
Speaker 14: equity firms there locked in a three billion dollar bidding

234
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 14: war for Financial Services Group in Signia, and then there's

235
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 14: New Zealand.

236
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 7: It was pretty quite down to the markets.

237
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:53,199
Speaker 14: You stayed, but we've had an announcement regarding Millennium and

238
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:58,679
Speaker 14: cop Thorn Hotels and there Singapore based CD AlSi is

239
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 14: the majority owner. They want to They proposed to full

240
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 14: takeover twenty four percent of the company that it doesn't own,

241
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 14: and there was actually a twenty five percent premium to

242
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 14: this to Friday's closing price. The company said told shed

243
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:11,839
Speaker 14: I was to sit tight and they're looking at it.

244
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 14: He got an independent evaluation committee to look at. But yeah, hotels,

245
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 14: of course, stuff that during COVID and all costs are

246
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 14: going up and Millenium Copthorn and they've got a big

247
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 14: refurbishment program underway. But she is in the hotel group.

248
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 14: They saw nineteen percent. It's a buy buyers market seeds Ryan,

249
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 14: I just wonder, you know, with the currency where it

250
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,319
Speaker 14: is affected in New Zealand, companies are on sale to

251
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,079
Speaker 14: overseas primis, So yeah, we might see more names depart

252
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 14: the ins.

Speaker 14: hundred all closed. But across the Atlantic, the fifty one

Speaker 7: his comments as after being sworn and declaring himself the

283
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 7: President of the United States. Here's what he had to say.

284
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,559
Speaker 6: Over the past eight years, I have been tested and

285
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 6: challenged more than any president in our two hundred and

286
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 6: fifty year history, and I've learned a lot along the way.

287
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:08,200
Speaker 6: The journey to reclaim our republic has not been an

288
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 6: easy one, that I can tell you. Those who wish

289
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 6: to stop our cause have tried to take my freedom

290
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 6: and indeed to take my life just a few months

291
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 6: ago in a beautiful Pennsylvania field and assassin's bullet ripped

292
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 6: through my ear. But I felt then, and believe even

293
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 6: more so now, that my life was saved for a reason.

294
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 6: I was saved by God to make America great again.

295
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:46,160

00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 7: the beginning, but it's devolved after that.

312
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 6: A short time from now, we are going to be

313
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 6: changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the

314
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 6: Gulf of America, and we will restore the name of

315
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 6: a great president, William McKinley to Mount McKinley, where it

316
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 6: should be and where it belongs.

317
00:15:56,880 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 7: He's also unexpectedly announced plans for the Panama Canal.

318
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 6: Shana is operating the Panama Canal, and we didn't give

319
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 6: it to China.

320
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 7: We gave it to Panama and we're taking it back,

321
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 7: hoping that's metaphorical. And then guess where we're going right

322
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 7: after that, and.

323
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 6: We will pursue our manifest Destiny into the Stars, launching

324
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 6: American astronauts to plant the stars and stripes on the

325
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 6: planet Mars.

326
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 7: A little real time active twenty two minutes away from

327
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 7: seven News Talks they'd be back here on Earth. Seek

328
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 7: has released their employment report from December. Job ads down

329
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 7: two percent, number of people applying for jobs down two percent.

330
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 7: Rod Clark's seat Country Manager. Good morning, Rob, It's good

331
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 7: to have you on the show. Let's start with the

332
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 7: numbers and how consumed we should be about them. Isn't December?

333
00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 7: Wouldn't it be typically a bad month for job ads?

334
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 7: Being the did it? Anyway?

335
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 10: It is a slower period, but it's secondly adjusted. So

336
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,440
Speaker 10: what we saw in December was a two percent decline,

337
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 10: which all set the games that we saw in November,

338
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 10: which was a two percent increase. So we're really pretty

339
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:15,200
Speaker 10: volatile at the moment.

340
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 7: The annual drop was twenty two percent, right, has that

341
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 7: been slowing or you know, have you seen a trend

342
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:24,199
Speaker 7: in the longer term a little bit?

343
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 10: So since June we've seen our job at volumes declimbed

344
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 10: by just one percent, but certainly at the start of

345
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 10: twenty twenty four we saw pretty significant fall. So we

346
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 10: sort of feel like we're hit the bottom and we're

347
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,680
Speaker 10: bouncing along it, but we're not seeing a ton of

348
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 10: green shoots.

349
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 7: Just at the moment, where are you better off being

350
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 7: in New Zealand if you're looking for a job at

351
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:47,199
Speaker 7: the moment, and the centers and the rurally whereabouts.

352
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,400
Speaker 10: Well, look, most of the jobs are always in the centers.

353
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 10: But when we look at the performance of you know,

354
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,280
Speaker 10: sort of the regions versus the main urban centers, we're

355
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 10: certainly seeing some of the smaller regions.

356
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:00,440
Speaker 16: Reform very well.

357
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,920
Speaker 10: So let's take Otago that's performed really well in twenty

358
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 10: twenty four, only down eight percent versus let's say Auckland

359
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 10: twenty five percent, and Taranaki has performed extremely well. So

360
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,440
Speaker 10: they were pretty much flat throughout twenty twenty four. The

361
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 10: main centers in December, for example, Wellington, Canterbury, Auckland down

362
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 10: between three and five percent.

363
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 7: Any industry is showing signs of growth that you want

364
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 7: to mention.

365
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,880
Speaker 10: Well, look, banking and finance has had a good run recently,

366
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 10: but unfortunately, you know, the declines are pretty much across

367
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,479
Speaker 10: the board. Of course, you'll get certain roles that are

368
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,959
Speaker 10: in high demand, you know, some of the specialist areas

369
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 10: and engineering, you know, cybersecurity and some of those types

370
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 10: of roles, but the broad rolls across let's say, Trades

371
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 10: and Services office, and admin advertising media found it pretty

372
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 10: tough in the last three while.

373
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 7: Yeah, it sounds like and just finally the fact that

374
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:55,639
Speaker 7: we've got you know, a number of people applying for

375
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 7: jobs also down, is that kind of offset things?

376
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 17: Not really?

377
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 10: I mean the real story there is the number of

378
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 10: applications is record high's relative to the number of jobs available.

379
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 10: So what that means is for job seekers it's really competitive.

380
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,879
Speaker 10: You know, a lot of employers are spoiled for choice

381
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 10: at the moment in terms of you know, who they

382
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 10: can pick because the number of applicants is just so high.

383
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 10: So it's really important for job seekers to make sure

384
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 10: they put the best foot forward.

385
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,159
Speaker 7: Thanks so much, Rob, Rob Clark seek country manager with

386
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,320

389
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,280

390
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 7: with the Trump presidency. We're going to check in with

391

Speaker 7: an auguration taking place today coming up after seven thirty.

399
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,879
Speaker 7: The Prime Minister is with us. Just a question for you,

400
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:06,439
Speaker 7: why are we subsidizing to the tune of four hundred

401
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,400
Speaker 7: thousand dollars an e bike company that's fallen over gone

402
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,400
Speaker 7: tips up in Totong And we'll ask the Prime Minister

403
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 7: about that.

404

Speaker 18: for New Zealand business.

406
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 7: Catherine build Our, France correspondent. Good morning to Catherine. Good morning, Ryan,

407
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,879
Speaker 7: lovely to have you on. Let's talk trade. Can the

408
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 7: EU escape Trump's tariffs?

409
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 19: They're hoping, but preparing for the worst. I mean, just

410
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,720
Speaker 19: look at the trade that the two countries do. The

411
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 19: US is the EU's largest trading partner. We're looking at

412
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 19: a trading range of about one point two trillion euros

413
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 19: between the two countries. However, here's the big thing, Ryan's

414
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 19: there's an imbalance. The EU imports from the US about

415
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 19: three hundred and forty six billion euros worth of goods

416
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,960
Speaker 19: but they export to the US some five hundred and

417
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 19: two billions soting kickback on that. What they are saying

418
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 19: it is they will put in place other sorts of

419
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 19: At the moment they're calling it sort of character and

420
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 19: stick type things. But they say they will retaliate if possible.

421
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 19: Wherever possible, they'll put in their own tariffs. They say

422
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 19: there is the mechanism for increasing tariffs, so.

423
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 2: That will all go back.

424
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 19: And there are more, what they say, tools in the toolbox,

425
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,879
Speaker 19: but for the moment they're holding their breath. I mean,

426
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,920
Speaker 19: just within the last few hours, the EU Finance Ministry

427
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 19: put out a statement, not responding to the threat so far,

428
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:46,280
Speaker 19: but calling the EU and the US strategic partners and

429
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 19: hoping that in this current geopolitical situation right now, that

430
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 19: Western democracies can work together. So everything is that they're

431
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 19: ready if retaliation is needed, but hoping it won't be.

432
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,719
Speaker 7: They'll be worried about it. Biden conquer from the White House, though,

433
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 7: won't they. I mean that that'll be his strategy, surely.

434
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,160
Speaker 7: And we know he doesn't like outfits like the UN,

435
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 7: and he thinks NATO's a bit weak, and no one's

436
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 7: contributing et cetera. Have they got a plan to work together, Well, they.

437
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 19: Already have the EU, they already work together in NATO,

438
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:21,320
Speaker 19: and don't forget NATO has other sorts of smaller groupings

439
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 19: than there. But you're quite right, they do have a plan,

440
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:29,240
Speaker 19: but nothing's been put in place because they've been talking

441
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 19: about it for so long. What they're talking about, Ryan

442
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 19: is finding a sort of a middle way somewhere between

443
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 19: what is known as strategic independence and what they've got

444
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,639
Speaker 19: at the moment, which is over end of dependence on

445
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 19: foreign parties and other partners. So they're going to have

446
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 19: to find some sort of you know, strategic structure whereby

447
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:56,000
Speaker 19: they keep the US happy, go along with it, make

448
00:22:56,080 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 19: it really realizing that it has a dominant role, things

449
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:05,639
Speaker 19: like the you within NATO, but also this realization that

450
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:10,479
Speaker 19: they cannot rely on the US anymore. And well aware

451
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 19: of course that Trump and a Trump adminstration doesn't want

452
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 19: to talk to these sort of what they describe as

453
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 19: regional initiatives, the European Union, stuff like that, and they're

454
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 19: aware that he will want to weaken those relationships so

455
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:29,440
Speaker 19: as they can have a more bilateral level relationship. So

456
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 19: there is an acknowledgment that we're in for a rocky ride,

457
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 19: I think is probably the kindest way to say it.

458
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think that is a plant where putting it, Catherine,

459
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:42,679
Speaker 7: Thank you very much for that. Obviously there's the Russia

460
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,200
Speaker 7: Ukraine War as well and where the tab gets picked

461
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 7: up that But probably to your point at this point,

462
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 7: no one really knows, but I guess preparing for the

463
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:53,920
Speaker 7: worst as they are with trade. Just gone thirteen minutes

464
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:55,919

495
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,640
Speaker 7: It's a big day for them, a really long day.

496
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:44,399
Speaker 7: I had to look at the schedule this morning, so

497
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:48,520

516
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:43,880
Speaker 7: Sending troops to the southern border. It's been a busy

517
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 7: day for a seveny eight year old man. I would

518
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:47,800

Speaker 7: to kick off the year, and spoiler alert's not good.

525
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 7: We've got the latest qv housing data which looked at

526
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:09,600
Speaker 7: the final quarter of twenty twenty four average house price

527
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 7: at the end of the year nine hundred and two

528
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 7: thousand dollars, which was down point three percents less than

529
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 7: the start of the year, so overall, not a huge

530
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 7: change in the average betweenty twenty four. However, it is

531
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:25,360
Speaker 7: fifteen percent fifteen percent below the market peak of October

532
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 7: twenty twenty one, so we've come way off our COVID peak.

533
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 7: In fact, everywhere is down and way down. The worst

534
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:35,919
Speaker 7: place Wellington, your house price is down twenty three percent

535
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 7: from the peak. That's from one point zero nine to

536
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 7: eight hundred and forty one thousand. That's a massive drop.

537
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 7: Why Takuri Papacuda where the only other two digits with

538
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 7: over twenty percent drops in house market value. Orkan City

539
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 7: down nineteen point three percent, with the average value dropping

540
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 7: from one point seven three million to one point four million. Meanwhile,

541
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 7: the entire Augand region down nineteen point two percent, with

542
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,159
Speaker 7: an average now one point two four million. Outside of

543
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,080
Speaker 7: Auckland and Wellington. What we got Hamilton down fourteen point

544
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 7: one to an average of seven eighty nine, totaling a

545
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:08,440
Speaker 7: down fifteen point eight to set it just over a

546
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 7: mill did'needen down eleven for an average of six forty five.

547
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:15,359
Speaker 7: Christ Church was considered the golden child of the housing

548
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 7: market betweeny twenty four, but even they felt although it

549
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,919
Speaker 7: was only really a fraction of the other's single digits,

550
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 7: at a negative four point four percent for an average

551
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 7: value of seven hundred and sixty six thousand, Which is

552
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:32,200
Speaker 7: to say, we all feel poorer, don't we, because that's

553
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 7: our biggest asset. You know, we're not investing in cryptocurrencies

554
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:40,520
Speaker 7: or launching our own cryptocurrencies as the Trumps have done

555
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,240
Speaker 7: and the lead up to this inauguration today. So that's

556
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 7: why we're all feeling so poor. Inflation, by the way,

557
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 7: we've got inflation data coming out tomorrow at ten forty five.

558
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 7: We'll get another rate cut next month. The economists reckon

559
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 7: that for December. This is the number that's coming tomorrow,

560
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 7: the December quarter that will get down to about two

561
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 7: point one percent annual. That's for December. International air fears

562
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 7: driving up the inflation rate towards the end of last year.

563
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 7: They reckon, So we should get a rate cut of

564
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 7: fifty basis points next month. After the longest summer break

565
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 7: in reserve bank history, I think no other reserve central

566
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 7: bank in the world has a summer hiatus as long

567
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 7: as New Zealand's. I mean, it's almost as long as

568
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 7: Mike Hoskings holiday at this point, isn't it. How long

569
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 7: has he been gone? And he winters about productivity.

570
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 15: Huh?

571
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 7: Well, in fact, that's probably a problem for the country

572
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 7: as a whole. No one comes back to work till

573
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 7: after White Tongy, don't do they except for us? Sods? Glenn,

574
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:41,880

Speaker 1: The Breakfast Show, Kiwi's Trust to Stay in the Know,

Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge on the Mic Hosking Breakfast with al Vida, Retirement, Communities, Life,

581
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:23,239
Speaker 1: Your Way, News talksadv.

582
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 7: Who's Back Baby. Donald Trump has become the forty seventh

583
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:29,520
Speaker 7: President of the United States. The seventy eight year old

584
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 7: took office for the second time in the last hour.

585
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 6: Under the orders I signed today, we will also be

586
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 6: designating the Cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.

587
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 7: He had a lot to say in his addressed to

588
00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 7: the American people, and Amber Duk is with us the

589
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 7: spectators Washington Edita in DC to break down exactly what

590
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 7: he said. And but good morning to your me. I'd

591
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 7: great to have you on. So you're going to mas

592
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 7: renaming the Gulf of Mexico. What else did we get

593
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 7: out of this speech?

594
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:18,400
Speaker 22: Well, look, it was a very policy forward speech, which

595
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:23,640
Speaker 22: is pretty atypical for an inauguration speech. Typically, and the

596
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:27,480
Speaker 22: new president will lay out sort of his vision for America.

597
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 22: He will usually offer some more generic platitudes, so to speak,

598
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 22: about how he views the country and what he hopes

599
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 22: to achieve in the next four years. But Trump was

600
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:43,360
Speaker 22: very explicit about his plans. He promised to on day

601
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 22: one reintroduce policies like remain in Mexico on the border,

602
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 22: declaring a state of emergency, declaring the Cartels a foreign

603
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 22: terrorist organization, as well as ending pets and release policies,

604
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 22: and also promising to Unleashamara and energy. As he puts it,

605
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:06,400
Speaker 22: drill Baby drill, and then on questions of culture, talking

606
00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 22: about an executive order he plans to sign that would

607
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 22: essentially enshrine biological reality of male versus female to prevent

608
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 22: transgender ideology from being entrenched in the federal government. So

609
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:26,360
Speaker 22: it was really a historical his speech really in just

610
00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:30,440
Speaker 22: how detailed and specific he got about his policy priorities

611
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 22: on his first daid in office.

612
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 7: And I guess that's an indication of just how he's

613
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 7: not here to waste time, He's not here to mic around.

614
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 7: He's getting stuck in from day dot right. But what

615
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 7: about the declaring a national emergency at the southern border,

616
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 7: what exactly does that mean?

617
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 22: Well, that will allow him to mobilize military forces if needed,

618
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 22: to go down to the southern border and assist customs

619
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:57,240
Speaker 22: in border patrol as well as immigrations and custom enforcement

620
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 22: with a combination of border security and carrying out his

621
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 22: mass deportation plans.

622
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 7: Joe Biden obviously was saying farewell to him in the

623
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 7: next couple of hours. Did they talk publicly together? Was

624
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 7: there any indication of the relationship today.

625
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 22: They did not speak publicly together today, although both seem

626
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,040
Speaker 22: to be in good spirits. Joe Biden in the past

627
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:21,520
Speaker 22: has said that he had a good conversation with Trump

628
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 22: after his election back in November, and that he sent

629
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 22: him a letter talking to him about what he has

630
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 22: done in office and what he hopes Trump will do,

631
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 22: But he did not give any specifics about what was

632
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 22: actually in that letter. But what was most interesting about

633
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 22: Biden's final hours in office is that he decided to

634
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,960
Speaker 22: sign multiple sweeping pardons, some of who some of which

635
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:49,080
Speaker 22: were for individuals that he believes Trump would potentially, in

636
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:53,720
Speaker 22: his words, weaponize the Department of Justice against, including Liz

637
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 22: Cheney and Anthony Fauci, and then also provided pardons for

638
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:02,040
Speaker 22: several of his family members, including James Biden, who has

639
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 22: been accused of being involved in corrupt business practices with

640
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 22: his son Hunter.

641
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 7: Which is that not an indication? I mean, he got

642
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 7: so much flex for doing Hunter, and then he turns

643
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 7: around in the last gasps of his presidency and preemptively

644
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 7: partns his brothers and sisters. Does that not imply that

645
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:17,200
Speaker 7: they did do something wrong?

646
00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 22: It does imply that. And that's really the problem is

647
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:24,520
Speaker 22: that Biden has simultaneously given more fodder for critics of

648
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 22: his family's business practices while also basically giving a free

649
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,919
Speaker 22: pass to Trump to pardon whoever he thinks appropriate. There's

650
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:37,279
Speaker 22: been a lot of criticism of which January six participants

651
00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:40,480
Speaker 22: Trump might pardon, and his allies are now going to

652
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 22: take Biden's decision to pardon his family members as a

653
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:50,160
Speaker 22: free reign to pardon every single January sixth participant, whether

654
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:53,600
Speaker 22: violent or nonviolent, because the line has been crossed.

655
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 7: And but just finally, Trump said he's going to rename

656
00:34:56,560 --> 00:35:00,200
Speaker 7: the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America. Denial, He's

657
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 7: going to rename him McKinley.

658
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 4: Can he actually do that?

659
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:06,000
Speaker 7: Does Can he just redraw the map, rewrite the map?

660
00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:10,320
Speaker 22: I believe he can do it for Denali or Mount McKinley,

661
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:14,839
Speaker 22: But the Golf of Mexico or Golf of America would

662
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:18,800
Speaker 22: obviously have to be accepted by Mexico as well. So

663
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 22: we could end up with a situation where you have

664
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 22: different countries calling it different things. But you know, that

665
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:27,520
Speaker 22: wouldn't be the first time that's happened. There's certainly other

666
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:30,160
Speaker 22: places around the world where countries called them different things.

667
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 15: So but we'll see what happens.

668
00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,200
Speaker 7: And but thank you very much for that excellent reporting

669
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:38,600
Speaker 7: is always Amber Duke, the Spectators Washington editor in DC.

670
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 7: Just gone twelve after seven Ryan Bridge company liquidations, you

671
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:43,719
Speaker 7: would have seen this. They've hit a ten year high.

672
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,239
Speaker 7: Two and a half thousand businesses went under last year,

673
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 7: seven hundred more than twenty twenty three, and until consumer

674
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 7: confidence burst back into the scene, it's expected to continue.

675
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:55,840
Speaker 7: Brian Williams of BW and BWA Insolvency is with us

676
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,840
Speaker 7: this morning. Brian, good morning, Ryan, good morning. Is this

677
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,080
Speaker 7: as bad as it looks calling it the worst and

678
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:02,319
Speaker 7: ten year high?

679
00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 23: Well, I don't think it's as bad as the GFC.

680
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 23: I wonder whether what might change the future though, is

681
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:13,280
Speaker 23: your conversation with your previous interviewer and how the geopolitical

682
00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:15,440
Speaker 23: environment will alter and how it will impact on New

683
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,560
Speaker 23: Zealanders and the New Zealand economy.

684
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:21,000
Speaker 7: And that's going to be a big determinant going forward.

685
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:24,000
Speaker 7: What about the IID have apparently been cracking down on

686
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 7: prosecutions on liquidating companies who aren't paying taxes. Is that

687
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 7: had an effect?

688
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,400
Speaker 23: Definitely? I think that's one of the drivers of the

689
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 23: volume of the liquidations today. The IIDA appears to have

690
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 23: a policy of either pay or die, and if you

691
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 23: can't pay, you shouldn't survive.

692
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:44,759
Speaker 21: And I think that's really appropriate.

693
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:49,200
Speaker 23: Quite honestly. Companies have for many, many years in some

694
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:53,920
Speaker 23: instances and not met their obligations to the commissioner, and

695
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,880
Speaker 23: they need to either pay it, make arrangements, or they

696
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:01,439
Speaker 23: can't continue. And I think that so what we're seeing

697
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:05,760
Speaker 23: today statistically is the idea saying, well, we've lost patients

698
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:08,360
Speaker 23: and we're going to make that decision for you.

699
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:10,800
Speaker 7: It's heartbreaking in a lot of ways because for a

700
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 7: lot of these companies, they will be hard working, you know,

701
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:18,360
Speaker 7: fastidious people who are doing all the right things, but

702
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:20,759
Speaker 7: just not getting ahead. If you are on the edge

703
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:22,839
Speaker 7: right now and you've chewed through your equity, you've chewed

704
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,879
Speaker 7: through your cash, it could still be a long time,

705
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:28,040
Speaker 7: could still be six months to a year before some

706
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 7: kind of spending sugar hit comes to save you.

707
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 23: Right well, I don't think it's going to come quickly.

708
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:37,160
Speaker 23: And one of the problems is the expenses that have

709
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 23: increased across the last two or three years have taken

710
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 23: out much of the gross profit that companies are earning.

711
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:48,240
Speaker 23: And secondly, weather's been a shortfall of liquidity they've borrowed

712
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 23: money and tear lenders have fed into that. So with

713
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:56,800
Speaker 23: punitive interest rates, that's just soaking up whatever gross profit

714
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 23: they are going to be earning in the future, which

715
00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 23: is again at staffed by the lack of disposal income.

716
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,200
Speaker 23: Now that will change as interest rates go down, But

717
00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:10,160
Speaker 23: I suspect that many people on the economy, and the

718
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,359
Speaker 23: economy is the aggregate of all of those participants. Individuals

719
00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 23: will consolidate their affairs and just take a breeder, have

720
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,759
Speaker 23: a cup of sea for a while and see what

721
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 23: the future may bring.

722
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:24,600
Speaker 7: Brian, Thank you, Brian Williams, BWE and BWA Insolvency disc

723
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,279
Speaker 7: on quarter past seven News Talks. Thereb coming up next.

724
00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:28,840
Speaker 7: You know we've got a problem with our pipes and

725
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,760
Speaker 7: how much they're leaking. We'll tell you just how much next.

726
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 1: The Like Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered

727
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 1: by News Talks.

728
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,600
Speaker 7: Atb seventeen after seven News Talks theb New Zealand's water

729
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,239
Speaker 7: leakage problem. We know we've got one. Turns out it's

730
00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:47,760
Speaker 7: far worse than what we had anticipated. New research suggests

731
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:49,840
Speaker 7: one hundred and twenty two million bucks worth of the

732
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:51,960
Speaker 7: stuff as being lost from our pipes each year. The

733
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:55,640
Speaker 7: worst European countries have leakage rates of final six percent,

734
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:59,880
Speaker 7: ours twenty two percent. Nick Wilson, University of Otago, Professor

735
00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:04,000
Speaker 7: of Public Health, Neck, Good morning, Neck, good morning. Can

736
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:04,360
Speaker 7: you hear me?

737
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:05,279
Speaker 17: Yes?

738
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 7: Good to have you on. Is it as bad as

739
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 7: it sounds?

740
00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:14,840
Speaker 17: It's pretty bad when we do these international comparisons, and

741
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:19,560
Speaker 17: the value of doing international comparisons really highlights what can

742
00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 17: be done when a country actually invests properly in its infrastructure. So, yeah,

743
00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:28,440
Speaker 17: we're at twenty two percent of our pipe water leaking,

744
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:32,360
Speaker 17: compared to Netherlands at five percent, Germany at six percent,

745
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:37,200
Speaker 17: and lower rates in Australia and various parts of the

746
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 17: US as well. A terrible waste that Well, when we

747
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 17: compared a leakage index number, they were just over one,

748
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 17: whereas we were two point seven. So twice is better.

749
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 7: Yeah, So basically we're just not fixing our pipes like

750
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:56,440
Speaker 7: they do in Europe.

751
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,719
Speaker 17: Yes, we're not investing in the long we've got a

752
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:06,160
Speaker 17: network of very aging pipes which are leaking and breaking.

753
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:10,360
Speaker 17: And that's actually from a public health perspective that's concerned

754
00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:14,800
Speaker 17: because defects and pipes can increase the risk of disease outbreaks.

755
00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 7: All right, so we know what we need to do

756
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 7: to fix that. But obviously we've got a whole bunch

757
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:22,560
Speaker 7: of reasons why we dined, including funding of our local governments, etc.

758
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:27,800
Speaker 7: Is there anything new or brilliant that you have found

759
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:28,839
Speaker 7: that might help us.

760
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 17: No, you're right that it is really an investment and

761
00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:38,320
Speaker 17: funding issue. But actually one of the new things was

762
00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:43,800
Speaker 17: there's been big advances in technology for detecting leaks, various

763
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:49,840
Speaker 17: acoustic systems inside pipes and above pipes with GPS monitoring,

764
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 17: So we've got the technology to actually identify leaks and

765
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 17: that's really been a big improvement. But also water measuring.

766
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,440
Speaker 17: We've got more and more evident now that water metering

767
00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:04,560
Speaker 17: is an important part of the solution. It helps detect

768
00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:10,320
Speaker 17: the leaks and it makes people more conscious off the

769
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:11,080
Speaker 17: value of water.

770
00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:13,200
Speaker 7: All right, Nick, thank you so much for that. Nick Wilson,

771
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:15,759
Speaker 7: Professor of Public Health at the University of Otago. During

772
00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 7: that interview, we probably lost dardono let's say, two hundred

773
00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:22,399
Speaker 7: thousand liters of water as we were talking. Just gone

774
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 7: twenty after seven. News Talk said be more on Trump next.

775
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:31,600
Speaker 1: The Mike asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered

776
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:32,680
Speaker 1: by News Talk SEB.

777
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:37,479
Speaker 7: So He's back. Trump is back in the White House.

778
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 7: It's official, and behind the pomp and ceremony are lessons

779
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:42,960
Speaker 7: for politicians on the left here and around the world.

780
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 7: Labeling your opponent a racist, a Nazi, an extremist, homophobe, sexist,

781
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:51,960
Speaker 7: anti trans a threat to democracy, a tyrant, remember that one.

782
00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:55,240
Speaker 7: A sexist, Well, they won't win you an election. Biden

783
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:57,879
Speaker 7: and then Harris through the kitchen sink of threats about

784
00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 7: Trump to the public. None of it stuck. The Obama's

785
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:04,920
Speaker 7: the pelosis. The Clintons of the American political world did

786
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:08,160
Speaker 7: their best to paint Trump as a dystopian dictator hell

787
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:12,840
Speaker 7: bent on crucifying immigrants and minorities. And what happened. They lost.

788
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,560
Speaker 7: He won a clean sweep of the battlegrounds, the House,

789
00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 7: the Senate, the Electoral College, the popular vote half of

790
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 7: Latino voters, the highest ever for a Republican. His election

791
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,200
Speaker 7: was a course run against the backdrop of a tough

792
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:30,759
Speaker 7: economic conditions, inflation hitting punters hard. Plus Joe Biden was well,

793
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:34,080
Speaker 7: literally stumbling to the finish line, struggling to walk and talk.

794
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:36,799
Speaker 7: But the fact remains that voters picked the guy who'd

795
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:40,040
Speaker 7: been labeled all of these awful things because they trusted

796
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:43,239
Speaker 7: him on the economy. And so what's the lesson here

797
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,200
Speaker 7: for Chippy. It doesn't matter how many times you call

798
00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:49,920
Speaker 7: Seymour and or Luxeon a racist, It won't get you

799
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 7: back on the Treasury benches. Labor and its allies are

800
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:55,080
Speaker 7: gearing up for a fresh on sort of attacks on

801
00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:57,200
Speaker 7: race as the Treaty Bill goes to Select Committee. But

802
00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:00,520
Speaker 7: here's the thing most Kiwis won't be listening to that.

803
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:02,960
Speaker 7: Just look at the polls they had the ipsos one

804
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:06,200
Speaker 7: out last year number one issue inflation two, health, three,

805
00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:12,239
Speaker 7: economy four crime, housing, poverty, race relations fifteenth. Those on

806
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:14,800
Speaker 7: the left would do better and we would all benefit

807
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:18,799
Speaker 7: from if they had stopped the name calling start coming

808
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 7: up with some serious, credible, alternative economic plans to get

809
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:25,600
Speaker 7: this country firing again. Labour was supposed to be the

810
00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,640
Speaker 7: party for the workers. They've let Provincial New Zealand down

811
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:32,400
Speaker 7: badly with economic mismanagement and energy policies that may have

812
00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:35,480
Speaker 7: suited a speech at Unger in New York, but certainly

813
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:39,320
Speaker 7: not the good people of Rupehu. And that's the lesson

814
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:42,040
Speaker 7: that Trump is giving the left today. The recipe used

815
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:46,200
Speaker 7: over the past decade of performative politics, even identity politics,

816
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 7: and virtue signaling and demonizing your opponents, it no longer

817
00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:54,720
Speaker 7: works on the very people who matter most, the voters.

818
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,560
Speaker 7: Bryan Bridge, twenty five after seven, A really interesting story

819
00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:00,680
Speaker 7: out of the UK. How long we got, yeah, Glenn,

820
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:03,400
Speaker 7: time for twenty seconds? Not enough time to tell you

821
00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:06,520
Speaker 7: about oh ninety seconds? Goodness me? All right, lots of

822
00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:09,040
Speaker 7: time I can tell you about this incredible surgery in

823
00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:11,600
Speaker 7: the UK was reading about this morning. So there's a woman,

824
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:14,240
Speaker 7: she's forty years old. She goes into the operating theater

825
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:17,160
Speaker 7: and normally she's got a tumor in her brain. Normally

826
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:19,279
Speaker 7: they wouldn't be able to operate on her because the

827
00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:21,560
Speaker 7: tumor is in a tricky place. They would literally have

828
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:25,440
Speaker 7: to take part of her skull out and shift her

829
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:28,839
Speaker 7: brain in order to reach the tumor inside of her head. Right,

830
00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 7: So very dangerous surgery. What have they managed to do?

831
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:38,160
Speaker 7: It's amazing keyhole surgery through her eye socket, I know.

832
00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:42,520
Speaker 7: And they've gone in there, no fuss, she's back walking

833
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:44,879
Speaker 7: after a day gone in there, taking the tumor out

834
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:45,680
Speaker 7: through her eye.

835
00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:48,399
Speaker 24: And you're making a lot of people wentz over their corner.

836
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:49,920
Speaker 7: Sorry, but I am.

837
00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:54,239
Speaker 20: I'm envisaging Analys's flights nagger in total recall and he

838
00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:57,680
Speaker 20: takes the tracking probe out through his nostril.

839
00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:00,480
Speaker 7: I know, well this is kind of like that. Yeah, yeah,

840
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:04,240
Speaker 7: incredible though. I mean, this woman potentially could have died.

841
00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:08,399
Speaker 7: She was in pain every day, and normally they would

842
00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 7: have had to say, sorry, the surgery is probably too

843
00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:13,319
Speaker 7: dangerous for somebody who's forty years old with children. She's

844
00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:16,880
Speaker 7: walking the same day and the tumor is gone. It's amazing.

845
00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:19,600
Speaker 7: She had a tiny scar. She had double vision for

846
00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:21,840
Speaker 7: about three months. Other than that, she's home and host

847
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:39,879

Speaker 7: I make I make man Hey. Speaking of big jobs,

860
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:21,200
Speaker 7: Nichola Willis has one What parameters have you set in

861
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:24,320
Speaker 7: order for her to grow growth? Is everything on the

862
00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:26,359
Speaker 7: table for her? Yeah?

863
00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:28,360
Speaker 25: Look, actually, through the course of the back end of

864
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:30,759
Speaker 25: last year and even even a bit earlier that there's

865
00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:32,600
Speaker 25: five things that we've got to do in our economic

866
00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:35,600
Speaker 25: growth plan. Obviously world class education. You know, we've got

867
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:37,839
Speaker 25: to get quality infrastructure in place. We've got to get

868
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:40,320
Speaker 25: have much more science, technology and innovation and R and

869
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:42,880
Speaker 25: D to add value to products and services, get rid

870
00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 25: of red tape, more competition, stronger international connections. So we've

871
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:48,520
Speaker 25: got the guts of what we want to do and

872
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:51,439
Speaker 25: build out in that economic plan. And what I really

873
00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:54,319
Speaker 25: want is as a minister to lead and to drive

874
00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:57,760
Speaker 25: that agenda through across all the ministries. And so Nicola

875
00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:00,239
Speaker 25: will have two parts of the job. Continue to sort

876
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:03,680
Speaker 25: of our finances, make sure that the budget is working,

877
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:06,600
Speaker 25: but then really get into the exciting work of actually

878
00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:08,719
Speaker 25: how do we lay down the big foundations that we

879
00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:11,120
Speaker 25: ultimately know will lead to New Zealand becoming a much

880
00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:11,839
Speaker 25: richer place.

881
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:13,520
Speaker 4: And when that happens, that's how.

882
00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:14,920
Speaker 15: People get a better quality of life, that's how we

883
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 15: get better public services.

884
00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:18,880
Speaker 25: So you know, the real focus is to on this

885
00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:21,800
Speaker 25: year is it's about Job Number one is growth, growth, growth,

886
00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 25: and that's important.

887
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:25,399
Speaker 7: That's the visions, that's the vision, right, that's the goals.

888
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:27,680
Speaker 7: So the question is how do we get there. We've

889
00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:30,400
Speaker 7: got billions tied up and underperforming Crown assets in New

890
00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:32,839
Speaker 7: Zealand on the balance sheet. Why do we have them?

891
00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:35,000
Speaker 7: And will you sell them down? Can she start selling

892
00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:35,359
Speaker 7: them down?

893
00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:39,600
Speaker 25: Well, we've committed not to put progress any asset sales

894
00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:42,120
Speaker 25: or what's called asset recycling this term. But what I

895
00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:43,920
Speaker 25: would say is there are bigger you know, what we've

896
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:46,520
Speaker 25: really got to do is attract investment to New Zealand.

897
00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:48,719
Speaker 25: A big part of that is what I've been doing

898
00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:51,520
Speaker 25: when we've been offshore overseas for examples in the UAE

899
00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:52,239
Speaker 25: just last week.

900
00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:55,680
Speaker 7: Yeah, but why won't we recycle assets? Why won't we

901
00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,880
Speaker 7: recycle assets? The Crown has five hundred and seventy billion

902
00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:01,080
Speaker 7: dollars worth I mean, so why do we own stuff

903
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:05,160
Speaker 7: that's underperforming that we could have the private sector doing well.

904
00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:07,200
Speaker 25: As I said to you, we've made a commitment of

905
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:09,680
Speaker 25: this term. That's not something that we're looking at a

906
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,320
Speaker 25: lot of things that we well, again made the commitment

907
00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:12,799
Speaker 25: for this term.

908
00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:14,239
Speaker 4: But what we are looking at.

909
00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:16,440
Speaker 25: Is that when you go around the world and you

910
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:19,319
Speaker 25: look at other advanced five million people countries on Earth,

911
00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:21,880
Speaker 25: and you ask the question, why are they fundamentally wealthier

912
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:24,600
Speaker 25: than New Zealand Why for thirty years have we not

913
00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:27,600
Speaker 25: been able, despite how hard everyone is working, not be

914
00:48:27,719 --> 00:48:30,480
Speaker 25: able to get ahead and to create a much.

915
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:34,040
Speaker 15: Wealthier, richer place. It gets back to some pretty basic.

916
00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:36,520
Speaker 25: Things and that's what we've got to drive those microeconomic

917
00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:41,040
Speaker 25: policies that actually, you know, like for example, science technology innovation.

918
00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:43,040
Speaker 25: We spend quite a bit of money on it, you know,

919
00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:45,600
Speaker 25: enough money on it. But the question is we come

920
00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:48,400
Speaker 25: up with great innovations, but we're not actually commercializing them

921
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:49,560
Speaker 25: and they're building out for big.

922
00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:51,719
Speaker 4: Well, we saw that employment for people.

923
00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:53,680
Speaker 7: We saw that this week with Abco. This is the

924
00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,440
Speaker 7: ebuying manufacturer in total. Now have you read about that?

925
00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:59,040
Speaker 7: So we're on the hook for four hundred thousand dollars

926
00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:03,279
Speaker 7: the taxpayer is through the Callahan Innovation Fund, company goes

927
00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:06,799
Speaker 7: into receivership and were left hindre. I mean we are

928
00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:08,480
Speaker 7: we making solid investments there.

929
00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:11,040
Speaker 25: Well, again, you know that'll be a question for the

930
00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:14,120
Speaker 25: Science and Technology Minister to have a review of. But

931
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:16,440
Speaker 25: the bigger point is there will be moments when we

932
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:20,400
Speaker 25: make an investment to facilitate or to catalyze an idea

933
00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:22,640
Speaker 25: to become a reality and the hope that it creates

934
00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 25: some motness, that creates employment and opportunity to some that

935
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:26,480
Speaker 25: will go right, some that won't go right.

936
00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:28,920
Speaker 7: Just to square this off the asset sales thing, you're

937
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:31,600
Speaker 7: not doing it this year this term, but next term

938
00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:33,640
Speaker 7: you will be open I mean, I mean selling off

939
00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:36,319
Speaker 7: Land Corp for example, that all of that stuff would

940
00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:37,440
Speaker 7: be on the table for next term.

941
00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 25: Yeah, our commitment is that we're not going to do

942
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:43,360
Speaker 25: asset sales with two years ago from the rest of

943
00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:46,880
Speaker 25: the term expires. But you know, the bigger issue is

944
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:49,520
Speaker 25: about how do we get pools of capital, both domestic

945
00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:52,319
Speaker 25: pools of capital in New Zealand and international pools into

946
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:54,360
Speaker 25: this country for investments so that we can grow the

947
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:54,840
Speaker 25: joint we.

948
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:58,120
Speaker 7: Had them on yesterday and they said they want accelerated

949
00:49:58,160 --> 00:49:59,960
Speaker 7: One of the biggest things you could do right now

950
00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:05,200
Speaker 7: to increase investment, to increase productivity, to increase wages. All

951
00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:09,000
Speaker 7: things we will want is do the accelerated depreciation on

952
00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:11,799
Speaker 7: their buying their manufacturing technology.

953
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:13,560
Speaker 9: Yeah.

954
00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:17,440
Speaker 25: Look, I understand the principle, which is to incentivize particularly

955
00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:21,320
Speaker 25: small medium enterprises to brace and invest in more technology

956
00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:24,520
Speaker 25: automation to make their business more efficient so they can

957
00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:28,200
Speaker 25: actually be more productive. Is actually all good stuff. Will

958
00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:31,040
Speaker 25: you help them again? We'll have more to say about

959
00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:32,719
Speaker 25: what our plans are as we go through the course

960
00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:34,800
Speaker 25: of the year. Obviously we've got a budget. That's the

961
00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:36,960
Speaker 25: point where we'd be looking at you'll see very clearly

962
00:50:37,040 --> 00:50:38,080
Speaker 25: those ideas come to life.

963
00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:40,319
Speaker 7: But so are you looking at are you looking at

964
00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:42,040
Speaker 7: that as part of the budget process.

965
00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:43,719
Speaker 25: Look, I'm not going to get into what we are

966
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:45,640
Speaker 25: are not looking into fight to the budget. But the

967
00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:47,920
Speaker 25: point is we are very open and we'll do any

968
00:50:48,239 --> 00:50:50,560
Speaker 25: everything to make sure we get the country growing and

969
00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:52,160
Speaker 25: we have it.

970
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:54,200
Speaker 4: You know, Ryan, if you just zoom out, I mean.

971
00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:57,360
Speaker 25: For thirty years we've actually under successive governments, we actually

972
00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:00,560
Speaker 25: haven't been able to solve that productivity problem work hard

973
00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:03,880
Speaker 25: in New Zealand relative to peers around the world. We

974
00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:05,920
Speaker 25: suck at it, but we're not adding enough value to

975
00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:08,400
Speaker 25: the products and services that we've created. So hopefully come

976
00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:09,560
Speaker 25: budgetes and it comes.

977
00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:12,120
Speaker 7: Come budget time when you do the accelerated depreciation and

978
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:14,080
Speaker 7: then businesses are about to just zoom forward with that.

979
00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:18,160
Speaker 7: Hey on, Just generally, this is the point about the budget.

980
00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:20,239
Speaker 7: In relation to the budget, the AMA said on the

981
00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:24,600
Speaker 7: show yesterday that you are prioritizing the surplus overgrowth. You know,

982
00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:26,879
Speaker 7: you could do stuff like this depreciation, but it would

983
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:29,840
Speaker 7: hurt your bottom line and would push the surplus forecast

984
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:32,920
Speaker 7: out further. You know, you look at Spain, They've got

985
00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:35,160
Speaker 7: public dead over one hundred percent, their GDPs three and

986
00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:36,799
Speaker 7: a half percent. They're leaving the world at the moment,

987
00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:38,839
Speaker 7: leaving the EU at the moment.

988
00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:40,040
Speaker 4: Are you looking?

989
00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:44,080
Speaker 7: Are you are you prioritizing one over the other unnecessarily?

990
00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:46,960
Speaker 4: No, we've got the balance, right, you know, we are not.

991
00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:49,399
Speaker 25: We haven't. You know, we're not driving the country into

992
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:52,240
Speaker 25: hard or sterea. That's just not the way forward. Equally,

993
00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:54,880
Speaker 25: carrying on the way that the previous administration was around

994
00:51:54,920 --> 00:51:57,640
Speaker 25: tax spin borrow or that doesn't work either. And I

995
00:51:57,719 --> 00:52:00,319
Speaker 25: think you've seen us actually be very measured and veryance

996
00:52:00,360 --> 00:52:03,160
Speaker 25: through the course of this first year, which was let's

997
00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:05,839
Speaker 25: get people tax relief, Let's get more efficiency and stop

998
00:52:05,880 --> 00:52:08,520
Speaker 25: the wasteful spending. Let's actually make sure we lay down

999
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:11,000
Speaker 25: the conditions for growth, and we think about if you

1000
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:13,839
Speaker 25: think about infrastructure investment that we've got to do, if

1001
00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:15,440
Speaker 25: we want to get that done, we're going to have

1002
00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:17,200
Speaker 25: to pull that forward. That means that we're going to

1003
00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:20,640
Speaker 25: have to have access to public private partnerships, use of

1004
00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:24,440
Speaker 25: foreign capital, domestic capital to invest in getting our roads built, Quackera,

1005
00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:26,600
Speaker 25: our schools belt Quaker area, hospitals built Quaker There's a

1006
00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:27,800
Speaker 25: whole bunch of things we're going to have to do

1007
00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:31,680
Speaker 25: differently in order to get that infrastructure in place. When

1008
00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:34,600
Speaker 25: we get the infrastructure in place, that's got massive economic, social,

1009
00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:36,320
Speaker 25: and arguably environmental benefits.

1010
00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:39,319
Speaker 15: So you know, there's those are the sorts of there's

1011
00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:39,920
Speaker 15: a lot.

1012
00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:42,960
Speaker 25: In that agenda of we have to be so much

1013
00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:46,480
Speaker 25: more focused on driving growth into New Zealand totally. We've

1014
00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:48,160
Speaker 25: got to get out of recession, which we've been in

1015
00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:50,480
Speaker 25: for the last three years, and actually get ourselves on

1016
00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:52,520
Speaker 25: a pathway to steady growth, and we have to improve

1017
00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:56,000
Speaker 25: what's called economic productivity. That's the core, fundamental challenge, and

1018
00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:57,799
Speaker 25: that has been for a long time.

1019
00:52:58,120 --> 00:52:59,600
Speaker 7: Sale Gp, I want to get to Trump in just

1020
00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:01,040
Speaker 7: the second. So this is a quick one for you,

1021
00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:03,960
Speaker 7: sal GP. Any appetite from the government from taxpayers to

1022
00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:05,719
Speaker 7: fund any future events.

1023
00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:08,759
Speaker 25: Again, we'll look into that again. You've got to get

1024
00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:10,880
Speaker 25: a return for that. And frankly, with the state of

1025
00:53:10,960 --> 00:53:14,040
Speaker 25: our books, the question is is that's a high bars

1026
00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:14,920
Speaker 25: doing something.

1027
00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:17,320
Speaker 7: It's a high bar, all right. And Wayne Brunt he

1028
00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:20,160
Speaker 7: wants a visitor levy a bed tax to try and

1029
00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:22,239
Speaker 7: pay for it himself. Will you let him do that?

1030
00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:24,040
Speaker 4: Again?

1031
00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:25,960
Speaker 25: I think what New Zealanders want is they want us

1032
00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:28,920
Speaker 25: focused on making sure that we can they can get ahead.

1033
00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:30,560
Speaker 25: And I just I'm not sure that adding new taxes

1034
00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:32,120
Speaker 25: at this point is the right way. Not a priority

1035
00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:33,200
Speaker 25: we will not a.

1036
00:53:33,239 --> 00:53:36,400
Speaker 7: Priority, all right? Cool Trump and trade. Seymour wants an

1037
00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:38,920
Speaker 7: FTA with Trump. I mean he's dreaming, isn't he.

1038
00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:43,440
Speaker 4: Well, well, I spoke to President Trump. He actually called me.

1039
00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:45,600
Speaker 25: We had had a good fifteen to twenty minute conversation.

1040
00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:49,640
Speaker 25: Pretty soon after he was elected, and I think, you know,

1041
00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:52,160
Speaker 25: we're going to make that relationship work really well. It's

1042
00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:54,680
Speaker 25: really important for New Zealand. We haven't had an.

1043
00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:57,319
Speaker 15: FTA with US. With the US, Australia does.

1044
00:53:57,719 --> 00:54:00,279
Speaker 25: But what's been interesting, Ryan is our trade, both in

1045
00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:03,160
Speaker 25: goods and services, has been growing tremendously. I think I

1046
00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:05,000
Speaker 25: think I looked at our services data last year and

1047
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:06,759
Speaker 25: I think we're up sort of thirty percent growth with

1048
00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:11,360
Speaker 25: the US. Our primary goods exports, you know, are finding

1049
00:54:11,400 --> 00:54:13,160
Speaker 25: good ways to get into a very large market and

1050
00:54:13,239 --> 00:54:15,799
Speaker 25: finding the profitable niches, you know, in a big market

1051
00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:18,600
Speaker 25: of three hundred and sixteen million people. So and when

1052
00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:21,279
Speaker 25: I was in DC and back in July, I went

1053
00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:23,880
Speaker 25: and spent a lot of time with both Democrats and

1054
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:27,200
Speaker 25: Republicans on both sides of the House around foreign relations

1055
00:54:27,239 --> 00:54:29,839
Speaker 25: and trade, and it was interesting to me they're very,

1056
00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:32,480
Speaker 25: very supportive and very very open to doing business with

1057
00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:35,800
Speaker 25: New Zealand. And So I think it's about relationships. I

1058
00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:39,120
Speaker 25: think we need a lot bigger, deeper, broader relationships across

1059
00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:42,520
Speaker 25: the US political system, and a lot of it's about awareness.

1060
00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:45,320
Speaker 25: You've got to understand, you know, America's a big country.

1061
00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:47,239
Speaker 25: When I lived there for eight years. You know, I

1062
00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:49,120
Speaker 25: have to think I used to spend a billion US

1063
00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:51,799
Speaker 25: dollars a year just advertising Dove Slope to Americans. Well,

1064
00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:53,719
Speaker 25: that's what it takes in a big market like that

1065
00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:57,440
Speaker 25: to get a brand to cut through with consumers. And

1066
00:54:57,560 --> 00:54:59,839
Speaker 25: so our New Zealand exporters have been doing a very

1067
00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:02,759
Speaker 25: very good job of targeting the consumers, targeting the way

1068
00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:04,080
Speaker 25: and those products.

1069
00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:04,560
Speaker 4: And those exporters.

1070
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:07,480
Speaker 7: Those exporters will be sitting on tender hooks at the

1071
00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:10,800
Speaker 7: moment worried about tariffs from Trump. What is the latest

1072
00:55:10,880 --> 00:55:13,000
Speaker 7: from our you know, our ambassadors to the US Rosmary Bank,

1073
00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:16,560
Speaker 7: What is the latest advice you've had on one, whether

1074
00:55:16,640 --> 00:55:20,240
Speaker 7: we'll get tariffs in two, whether we might get some exemption.

1075
00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:24,040
Speaker 25: We really need to just let that administration get its

1076
00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:26,440
Speaker 25: feet under the desk and actually see what happens, because

1077
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:30,440
Speaker 25: there's nothing more than what we've seen around the campaign

1078
00:55:30,480 --> 00:55:35,000
Speaker 25: talk that everyone's seen around the world. But irrespective, it's

1079
00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:37,319
Speaker 25: a relative game, right, So we still have to find

1080
00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:40,320
Speaker 25: a way to win and actually do business in America.

1081
00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:42,400
Speaker 25: So what we do in the UAE, as we do

1082
00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:45,240
Speaker 25: in India, as we need to in China, and as Southeast.

1083
00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:47,359
Speaker 7: Asia would if it's a negotiating tactic, would you ever

1084
00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:50,560
Speaker 7: throw up and negotiate something like us joining Orcust pillar

1085
00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:52,680
Speaker 7: two if it gave us a concession on trade.

1086
00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:56,680
Speaker 25: No, we will have a conversation about trade around trade,

1087
00:55:57,080 --> 00:55:58,920
Speaker 25: and then we'll talk about our own security and what

1088
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:00,920
Speaker 25: we think is right for the for ourselves.

1089
00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:03,000
Speaker 7: Prime Minister, thank you very much for your time. Christopher

Speaker 1: News Talks at B.

1094
00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:16,480
Speaker 7: It is ten away from eight. So we just had

1095
00:56:16,480 --> 00:56:20,040
Speaker 7: the Prime Minister, Christopher Luxon on and he's said, basically,

1096
00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:22,720
Speaker 7: they're not doing any asset sales this term. He's sticking

1097
00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:24,920
Speaker 7: to that promise even though we desperately need them. And

1098
00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:27,360
Speaker 7: I don't think that. I don't think the public opposition

1099
00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:29,960
Speaker 7: to asset sales is what he thinks it is. I

1100
00:56:30,080 --> 00:56:32,920
Speaker 7: think Key did it. No one there was a hohoha,

1101
00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:35,640
Speaker 7: but no one cares now do they? So what's the

1102
00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:37,399
Speaker 7: big fast Anyway, They're not going to do that until

1103
00:56:37,440 --> 00:56:39,279
Speaker 7: next turn, but they will be looking at other stuff

1104
00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:41,920
Speaker 7: for the budget, especially to do with appreciation by the

1105
00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:46,200
Speaker 7: sounds of it. Lots of feedback, Ryan, I love your show. Spoiler,

1106
00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:48,160
Speaker 7: this is not my show, this is Mike's show. He'll

1107
00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:51,520
Speaker 7: be back next Tuesday. However, I appreciate the sentiment Monique,

1108
00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:54,440
Speaker 7: it's good to be able to make the Prime Minister laugh.

1109
00:56:54,560 --> 00:56:59,080
Speaker 7: After all, he is human too, right, challenging Luxon, It's

1110
00:56:59,120 --> 00:57:01,600
Speaker 7: good to hear I've been a national voter until the

1111
00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:04,960
Speaker 7: last election. Enough of his bs catch words. There's lots

1112
00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:08,120
Speaker 7: of people messaging in about his Someone says corporate words

1113
00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:12,400
Speaker 7: salad from Luxen. Yeah, I suppose he does use a

1114
00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:15,200
Speaker 7: lot of weird buzzwords. And he does talk a lot.

1115
00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:18,080
Speaker 7: Not as much as Jacinda doing News to Talk, mind you,

1116
00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:22,280
Speaker 7: but he does talk a lot without necessarily saying a

1117
00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:24,240
Speaker 7: hell of a lot. But I guess you know he's

1118
00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:26,440
Speaker 7: now a politician, is and he's a professional politician. So

1119

1125
00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:46,000
Speaker 7: You might be interested to know. I was talking about

1126
00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:48,280
Speaker 7: the Callahan Innovation Fund with the Prime Minister just a

1127
00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:51,560
Speaker 7: few minutes ago. Since twenty seventeen, this is the number

1128
00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:54,800
Speaker 7: of investments we've made that have failed. Five million dollars

1129
00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:59,200
Speaker 7: has been lost to businesses that failed. That's taxpayer money

1130
00:57:59,400 --> 00:58:01,920
Speaker 7: that we put in. And guess how much of that

1131
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:05,160
Speaker 7: we've got back. Twenty thousand dollars of our five million

1132
00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:08,000
Speaker 7: to companies that have failed from the Callahan investment funds.

1133
00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:09,600
Speaker 7: So I mean, I would love to know, actually how

1134
00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:12,560
Speaker 7: many have succeeded. It is five away from eight. Now

1135
00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:15,360
Speaker 7: the Golden Age of America is upon us. Donald Trump

1136
00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:18,000
Speaker 7: is the forty seventh President of the United States. And

1137
00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:20,040
Speaker 7: he did this speech earlier. We played you some on

1138
00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:23,400
Speaker 7: the tallyprompter. Now he's gone rogue. He's off scratching some

1139
00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:24,080
Speaker 7: of the people.

1140
00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:27,400
Speaker 6: Why are we helping Liz Cheney? I mean, Liz Cheney

1141
00:58:27,480 --> 00:58:30,360
Speaker 6: is a disaster. She's a crying, a lunatic. And Liz

1142
00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:32,000
Speaker 6: Cheney hated the concept of.

1143
00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:36,240
Speaker 3: Not going to war with everybody. Let's kill everybody.

1144
00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:38,960
Speaker 6: We'll spend a lot of money on military equipment.

1145
00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:39,320
Speaker 24: Think of it.

1146
00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:42,880
Speaker 6: They destroyed and deleted all of that information that went

1147
00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:45,920
Speaker 6: on for almost two years against Trump. And the reason

1148
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:49,200
Speaker 6: they did because it was all false. Like the person

1149
00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:53,440
Speaker 6: that said I tried to strangle a secret Service agent.

1150
00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:55,800
Speaker 6: That's one of the toughest human beings I think I've

1151
00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:59,280
Speaker 6: ever seen. Remember she said, I put my hands around

1152
00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:03,000
Speaker 6: his neck because he wouldn't go to the capitol. Made

1153
00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:07,080
Speaker 6: up fiction, and I was rebuffed. And the guy in

1154
00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:10,800
Speaker 6: the raid is a massive weightlifter, probably stronger than me.

1155
00:59:10,920 --> 00:59:12,440
Speaker 6: Do you think he's stronger than me? How do you

1156
00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:17,320
Speaker 6: know who I'm talking? Possibly stronger than me, slightly younger

1157
00:59:17,440 --> 00:59:20,800
Speaker 6: than me. Like I won't say how many years because

1158
00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:22,600
Speaker 6: I don't want to talk about that, but a lot

1159
00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:25,960
Speaker 6: of years. But I had a friend that said, why

1160
00:59:26,080 --> 00:59:29,200
Speaker 6: are you disputing that story? That's the coolest story I've

1161
00:59:29,240 --> 00:59:33,520
Speaker 6: ever heard, that I would attack a karate champion, get

1162
00:59:33,640 --> 00:59:36,560
Speaker 6: slightly rebuffed, and then throw my arms around the guy

1163
00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:37,960
Speaker 6: with a neck about this big.

1164
00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:44,360
Speaker 7: And there it is people, the most entertaining president i've

1165
00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:47,840
Speaker 7: abslutely little politician even that I've ever listened to. It

1166
00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:50,760
Speaker 7: is coming up to three minutes, so yes, coming up

1230
01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:08,040
Speaker 7: Do you include them in that?

1231
01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:12,120
Speaker 21: I don't know. I think they just I think, you know,

1232
01:03:12,280 --> 01:03:15,600
Speaker 21: even just on Saturday when we had the show, it

1233
01:03:15,720 --> 01:03:17,720
Speaker 21: was a huge crowd. It was like fourteen thousand people,

1234
01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:21,520
Speaker 21: and I think they were like, oh, you know, but

1235
01:03:21,640 --> 01:03:23,920
Speaker 21: they just don't they haven't quite connected that.

1236
01:03:24,800 --> 01:03:25,320
Speaker 17: That's what I do.

1237
01:03:25,760 --> 01:03:29,160
Speaker 21: They think I'm the sock finder. But so, yeah, it's

1238
01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:31,720
Speaker 21: quite cool to bring them because they kind of get

1239
01:03:31,800 --> 01:03:34,600
Speaker 21: it now. But yeah, no, I don't know. I don't

1240
01:03:34,680 --> 01:03:37,480
Speaker 21: really sing to them that much. Quite sort of. They

1241
01:03:37,720 --> 01:03:41,120
Speaker 21: are quite apathetic about my singing around the house.

1242
01:03:41,240 --> 01:03:44,320
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's quite that's quite a flex to just put

1243
01:03:44,360 --> 01:03:46,959
Speaker 7: them in. Hey, come and have a look at those kids.

1244
01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:53,840
Speaker 7: See what mama can do. So I've been I've been

1245
01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:57,640
Speaker 7: looking back at some of the comments that you've given

1246
01:03:57,680 --> 01:04:00,760
Speaker 7: in the past about you know, that inspiration and I

1247
01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:04,360
Speaker 7: spoke about your mum being a lounge singer. Is is

1248
01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:07,240
Speaker 7: it something that you would want, you know, your kids

1249
01:04:07,280 --> 01:04:09,760
Speaker 7: to be doing in the future. Is a music still

1250
01:04:10,520 --> 01:04:13,280
Speaker 7: the same, not not just an outlet, but kind of

1251
01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:15,640
Speaker 7: career path that it was for you.

1252
01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:16,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, kind of.

1253
01:04:17,040 --> 01:04:20,280
Speaker 21: I mean only because I'd sort of want to, you know,

1254
01:04:20,480 --> 01:04:23,360
Speaker 21: be around them and sort of help them do stuff,

1255
01:04:23,400 --> 01:04:25,640
Speaker 21: because you know, it's just like any I suppose family

1256
01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:28,600
Speaker 21: business where you get a bit more of an insight

1257
01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:31,160
Speaker 21: if you've got someone in your family there with you

1258
01:04:31,320 --> 01:04:33,880
Speaker 21: to help you. But that would be the selfish reason.

1259
01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:35,440
Speaker 21: I think it's a I still think it's a really

1260
01:04:35,440 --> 01:04:38,240
Speaker 21: hard thing to do. But my kids have just started

1261
01:04:38,280 --> 01:04:40,920
Speaker 21: learning to play guitar, and they just sort of did

1262
01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:43,600
Speaker 21: it themselves. So I think it's about them having their

1263
01:04:43,640 --> 01:04:47,040
Speaker 21: own impetus to do it. I couldn't make them or anything,

1264
01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:48,720
Speaker 21: but yeah, they seem interested.

1265
01:04:50,280 --> 01:04:53,720
Speaker 7: Your Spotify. I had a look yesterday getting I think

1266
01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:57,400
Speaker 7: close to half a million's strength monthly streams for your music,

1267
01:04:57,520 --> 01:05:00,280
Speaker 7: which is fantastic. Just do you make money that?

1268
01:05:02,480 --> 01:05:06,160
Speaker 21: Do I make money? I think probably a little bit,

1269
01:05:06,280 --> 01:05:09,600
Speaker 21: But I don't think that's the main way we make money.

1270
01:05:09,800 --> 01:05:12,880
Speaker 21: I mean, that's yeah, that's always been a bit contentious

1271
01:05:12,920 --> 01:05:16,080
Speaker 21: that stuff, because streaming is a bit stacked up against you,

1272
01:05:17,200 --> 01:05:19,320
Speaker 21: and you know, yeah, it has been harder and harder

1273
01:05:19,400 --> 01:05:22,280
Speaker 21: for musicians to make money out of things like that.

1274
01:05:22,520 --> 01:05:24,280
Speaker 21: But you know, I guess that's the way we tour

1275
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:27,480
Speaker 21: and and you know, you have to really love doing it.

1276
01:05:27,640 --> 01:05:30,080
Speaker 21: You know, I still do it because it's super fun

1277
01:05:30,360 --> 01:05:33,880
Speaker 21: and I can't do anything else apart.

1278
01:05:33,680 --> 01:05:37,040
Speaker 7: From fine socks. Becketts. It's lovely, lovely to have you

1292
01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:27,760
Speaker 7: to Sway And I know you've probably been asked a

1293
01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:30,320
Speaker 7: thousand questions about this song because it was such a

1294
01:06:30,360 --> 01:06:35,440
Speaker 7: popular song but a beautiful song. I don't know, sort

1295
01:06:35,480 --> 01:06:41,640
Speaker 7: of sad but also very uplifting song. And you've set here, Yeah,

1296
01:06:42,040 --> 01:06:44,040
Speaker 7: you said that you wrote it or you've got the

1297
01:06:44,080 --> 01:06:47,160
Speaker 7: inspiration for the name from Ireland? What was that about?

1298
01:06:48,560 --> 01:06:48,720
Speaker 26: Oh?

1299
01:06:48,840 --> 01:06:51,880
Speaker 21: I think yeah, I was trying to record my record there.

1300
01:06:51,880 --> 01:06:54,120
Speaker 21: I think I've been signed and they sort of shipped

1301
01:06:54,160 --> 01:06:58,880
Speaker 21: me over there to record. It wasn't it wasn't. It

1302
01:06:59,080 --> 01:07:00,880
Speaker 21: wasn't so much to do with Ireland. It was just

1303
01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:04,400
Speaker 21: some graffiti I saw in Auckland. But it was just

1304
01:07:04,520 --> 01:07:08,600
Speaker 21: someone who's gotten up onto the top of a bridge,

1305
01:07:08,600 --> 01:07:12,080
Speaker 21: I think in Windom Street. But I just remember saying,

1306
01:07:12,160 --> 01:07:13,000
Speaker 21: how did they get up there?

1307
01:07:13,040 --> 01:07:13,320
Speaker 14: And write?

1308
01:07:13,440 --> 01:07:14,840
Speaker 17: Was really random words.

1309
01:07:14,640 --> 01:07:17,080
Speaker 21: Way And then the song kind of wrote itself quite

1310
01:07:17,160 --> 01:07:19,240
Speaker 21: quickly and we did record it in Ireland.

1311
01:07:19,360 --> 01:07:22,240
Speaker 7: Yeah, are you recorded and Iland? So someone wrote the

1312
01:07:22,280 --> 01:07:25,400
Speaker 7: words way on the side of a building, you see

1313
01:07:25,480 --> 01:07:27,160
Speaker 7: that and outcomes the song?

1314
01:07:28,440 --> 01:07:30,320
Speaker 21: Yeah, I mean it used to happen a lot in

1315
01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:31,960
Speaker 21: those days. We're just it was just sort of a

1316
01:07:32,080 --> 01:07:36,520
Speaker 21: stream of consciousness, I suppose writing songs and yeah, yeah,

1317
01:07:36,520 --> 01:07:38,760
Speaker 21: it was a really easy song to write.

1318
01:07:39,560 --> 01:07:39,760
Speaker 17: Yep.

1319
01:07:40,680 --> 01:07:44,640
Speaker 7: We spoke about the Spotify side business side of it

1320
01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:47,880
Speaker 7: was that song and that album in particular. Was that

1321
01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:49,760
Speaker 7: a lucrative time for you?

1322
01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:56,520
Speaker 21: I mean, I'm amazed that it's still you know, around,

1323
01:07:56,720 --> 01:07:59,120
Speaker 21: and it does still I mean, I guess it still

1324
01:07:59,160 --> 01:08:01,680
Speaker 21: pays bills, but yeah, it's an amazing what a song

1325
01:08:01,800 --> 01:08:06,520
Speaker 21: can do, and it probably is still, you know, for

1326
01:08:06,640 --> 01:08:08,680
Speaker 21: something to be around for over twenty years, I think

1327
01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:12,080
Speaker 21: that's when you sort of see that it's sort of

1328
01:08:12,160 --> 01:08:15,160
Speaker 21: around for the long haul. But it does take that

1329
01:08:15,320 --> 01:08:18,200
Speaker 21: long and it's been kind of fun to experience that Yeah,

1330
01:08:18,520 --> 01:08:19,240
Speaker 21: it's pretty cool.

1331
01:08:19,320 --> 01:08:23,600
Speaker 7: And when gold in New Zealand, gold in Australia, I

1332
01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:27,519
Speaker 7: certified gold there by Aria and even I was watching

1333
01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:29,960
Speaker 7: a couple of this is probably a couple of years ago,

1334
01:08:30,040 --> 01:08:35,519
Speaker 7: but watching American Pie. It made its way onto that movie,

1335
01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:37,639
Speaker 7: the American movie. How did that happen?

1336
01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:40,840
Speaker 21: Yeah, I actually don't quite recall how it happened, but

1337
01:08:40,920 --> 01:08:43,040
Speaker 21: I do remember living in America at the time and

1338
01:08:43,320 --> 01:08:45,400
Speaker 21: seeing it and seeing the movie in a movie theater

1339
01:08:45,479 --> 01:08:49,680
Speaker 21: and that was amazing. I was only maybe nineteen, and yeah,

1340
01:08:49,960 --> 01:08:51,840
Speaker 21: I was watching this movie and the song came on

1341
01:08:51,960 --> 01:08:53,600
Speaker 21: and then they used it sort of sequel, and I

1342
01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:55,280
Speaker 21: don't know, it just found a life of its own.

1343
01:08:55,320 --> 01:08:58,240
Speaker 21: And actually even now, which is really amazing, as it's

1344
01:08:58,280 --> 01:09:02,760
Speaker 21: just been covered by a shark and you know, she's

1345
01:09:02,800 --> 01:09:05,000
Speaker 21: sort of brought it a second a second life and

1346
01:09:05,320 --> 01:09:07,040
Speaker 21: thank you. So yeah, that's what a song can do

1347
01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:09,560
Speaker 21: if you just you know, it just finds Yeah, it

1348
01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:10,479
Speaker 21: just finds its own way.

1349
01:09:11,120 --> 01:09:12,400
Speaker 7: It's timeless, really, isn't it.

1350
01:09:13,479 --> 01:09:15,040
Speaker 10: Yeah, it's cool, very cool.

1351
01:09:15,400 --> 01:09:18,479
Speaker 7: Now are you still writing music? You're obviously still performing it,

1352
01:09:18,560 --> 01:09:20,559
Speaker 7: Are you still writing it? And how do you find

1353
01:09:20,600 --> 01:09:22,880
Speaker 7: the time between you know, doing all the laundry for

1354
01:09:22,920 --> 01:09:23,320
Speaker 7: the kids.

1355
01:09:23,520 --> 01:09:29,080
Speaker 21: Yeah, yeah, between being a slave. Yeah, No, I do

1356
01:09:29,240 --> 01:09:31,840
Speaker 21: find time and things are getting easier now and I

1357
01:09:31,920 --> 01:09:35,559
Speaker 21: still love it and yeah, just yeah, I am. I'm writing.

1358
01:09:35,720 --> 01:09:38,080
Speaker 21: I'm writing an album and recording right now and I

1359
01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:40,400
Speaker 21: don't know. It's just still just what I do and

1360
01:09:40,800 --> 01:09:44,360
Speaker 21: it's really enjoyable and it's like therapy, and yeah, I'm

1361
01:09:44,360 --> 01:09:46,600
Speaker 21: still doing it. Hopefully there'll be something out sometime this

1362

Speaker 7: who not knifed Justin Todae, but certainly gave him the

1381
01:10:50,200 --> 01:10:53,439
Speaker 7: nudge to get the hell out of Dodge. And she

1382
01:10:53,720 --> 01:10:56,559
Speaker 7: is now wanting to be the next Prime Minister of Canada.

1383
01:10:57,280 --> 01:11:01,320
Speaker 7: And she has taken today's opportunity while Trump is getting

1384
01:11:01,320 --> 01:11:04,240
Speaker 7: inaugurated in the United States, to launch her campaign. So

1385
01:11:04,360 --> 01:11:07,760
Speaker 7: she's trying to piggyback off the back of his you know,

1386
01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:11,400
Speaker 7: media attention, I guess, and try and get herself elected.

1387
01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:14,400
Speaker 7: She's making the case saying that this is for the

1388
01:11:14,640 --> 01:11:17,519
Speaker 7: Liberals in Canada and for Canada more generally, to the

1389
01:11:17,760 --> 01:11:21,479
Speaker 7: voting public, saying Trump is an existential threat to Canada.

1390
01:11:21,720 --> 01:11:25,720
Speaker 7: She's pleedging dollar for dollar retaliation against any terrorists that

1391
01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:30,439
Speaker 7: he might impose on Canada. Good luck. And the thing

1392
01:11:30,520 --> 01:11:33,160
Speaker 7: is she's on hiding to nothing not to do with Trump,

1393
01:11:33,200 --> 01:11:35,360
Speaker 7: but she's just on hiding to nothing more generally, because

1394
01:11:35,400 --> 01:11:38,759
Speaker 7: the polls hate the Liberals. After Justin Trudeau's nine years

1395
01:11:38,880 --> 01:11:42,720
Speaker 7: in power, So good luck to you Freeland. Back here

1396
01:11:42,760 --> 01:11:47,639
Speaker 7: in New Zealand, New Zealand and Auckland, the dog owners

1397
01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:50,120
Speaker 7: are facing restrictions. You might have seen this in the news.

1398
01:11:50,160 --> 01:11:52,920
Speaker 7: And I'm a dog owner. I've got to be beagle.

1399
01:11:53,080 --> 01:11:59,240
Speaker 7: She's four now and you know, eats everything, craps everywhere.

1400
01:11:59,840 --> 01:12:02,840
Speaker 7: We always picked that crap up off the sidewalk because

1401
01:12:02,880 --> 01:12:04,880
Speaker 7: that's a good thing to do, right, And apparently this

1402
01:12:05,040 --> 01:12:07,320
Speaker 7: is the problem and or people aren't doing that, People

1403
01:12:07,360 --> 01:12:09,759
Speaker 7: aren't taking their little bags out with them and scooping

1404
01:12:09,840 --> 01:12:13,120
Speaker 7: up the pooh. So the council is now recommending that

1405
01:12:13,400 --> 01:12:16,599
Speaker 7: in fourteen regional parks out of sixty and sixty four

1406
01:12:16,680 --> 01:12:21,439
Speaker 7: local parks, they will become completely dog free because they

1407
01:12:21,520 --> 01:12:23,720
Speaker 7: can't the owners can't be trusted to pick up their

1408
01:12:23,760 --> 01:12:26,600
Speaker 7: dogs doodoos, and they're either letting them crap everywhere or

1409
01:12:26,880 --> 01:12:29,479
Speaker 7: they're letting them off the lead and they're going berserk.

1410
01:12:30,200 --> 01:12:31,800
Speaker 7: So this is what they're going to do. There's a

1411
01:12:32,280 --> 01:12:36,280
Speaker 7: somebody on my street across the road is leading their

1412
01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:38,400
Speaker 7: dog and I'm assuming the dog must be off the lead,

1413
01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:42,479
Speaker 7: because how else wouldn't you know your dog was doing

1414
01:12:42,920 --> 01:12:45,760
Speaker 7: And they're giant ones like it's a Rhodesian ridgeback or

1415
01:12:45,760 --> 01:12:50,520
Speaker 7: a Great Dane or something Great Dane leon Berger and Newfoundland,

1416
01:12:50,640 --> 01:12:54,600
Speaker 7: something like that. Glenow No, no, no chow chow. What

1417
01:12:54,760 --> 01:12:58,760
Speaker 7: is the cho the big light, the lion main one, Yeah,

1418
01:12:58,840 --> 01:13:01,960
Speaker 7: something like that going down my street and is shitting

1419
01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:07,559
Speaker 7: everywhere and if the owner must, the owner either has

1420
01:13:07,600 --> 01:13:11,599
Speaker 7: it off the lead, which is irresponsible on a road,

1421
01:13:12,240 --> 01:13:14,639
Speaker 7: or they know that they're just letting their dog crap

1422
01:13:14,680 --> 01:13:17,639
Speaker 7: all over the street. And it's every day and people

1423
01:13:17,680 --> 01:13:19,720
Speaker 7: are walking through. You can see the footprints on the

1424
01:13:19,800 --> 01:13:22,800
Speaker 7: street and on the footpath, on the footpath, not on

1425
01:13:22,920 --> 01:13:26,200
Speaker 7: the like on the boom. No, there's no boom, there's

1426
01:13:26,520 --> 01:13:27,200
Speaker 7: draped from road.

1427
01:13:27,280 --> 01:13:31,400
Speaker 20: And maybe they've said, hey, great Dane, Brutus, what are

1428
01:13:31,439 --> 01:13:34,519
Speaker 20: your names? Can't you just hold it until we get

1429
01:13:34,560 --> 01:13:38,200
Speaker 20: to a street where there's a boom and Brutus is gone.

1430
01:13:40,360 --> 01:13:44,920
Speaker 7: Pick it up? You know what I mean, Charlie, your chowchows,

1431
01:13:45,160 --> 01:13:46,760
Speaker 7: you know, crapping on the street, You pick it up.

1432
01:13:46,920 --> 01:13:49,240
Speaker 20: Have you considered that it might be a personal vendetta

1433
01:13:49,280 --> 01:13:51,360
Speaker 20: against you, Well, nobody's doing.

1434
01:13:51,280 --> 01:13:54,200
Speaker 7: It deliberately to you. No, I hadn't thought about that.

1435
01:13:54,640 --> 01:13:56,840
Speaker 7: I thinking about it out I am, but why would

1436
01:13:56,840 --> 01:13:58,000
Speaker 7: you do it on the other side of the road.

1437
01:13:58,040 --> 01:14:00,719
Speaker 7: See that makes no sense. But anyway, people are standing.

1438
01:14:00,800 --> 01:14:02,960
Speaker 7: It's disgusting. People are standing in it because you can

1439
01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:04,240
Speaker 7: see the footprints through it all.

1440
01:14:04,439 --> 01:14:06,679
Speaker 20: There's nothing worse than the shame of being called out.

1441
01:14:07,280 --> 01:14:09,439
Speaker 20: Like you know, I've been in a situation where you

1442
01:14:09,479 --> 01:14:11,479
Speaker 20: know the dog is off the lead you on the beach,

1443
01:14:12,520 --> 01:14:15,000
Speaker 20: is behind you, and you haven't just sort of noticed.

1444
01:14:15,120 --> 01:14:17,479
Speaker 7: Oh it's just a little dumb and somebody elses come

1445
01:14:17,560 --> 01:14:18,880
Speaker 7: up to you said, eh, do you know that your

1446
01:14:18,920 --> 01:14:22,320
Speaker 7: dog's just and yeah, boy, a little mystery one that

1447
01:14:22,400 --> 01:14:27,320
Speaker 7: you didn't know about sneaking one behind dad's back. Anyway,

1448
01:14:27,680 --> 01:14:29,160
Speaker 7: just go and pick up your poop. I mean, it's

1449
01:14:29,200 --> 01:14:31,840
Speaker 7: quite simple. Your flusheels down the toilet, you pick your

1450
01:14:31,880 --> 01:14:36,519
Speaker 7: dogs up off the footpath, very easy. And because of you,

1451
01:14:37,479 --> 01:14:39,440
Speaker 7: whoever you are, mystery Charlie.

1452
01:14:39,240 --> 01:14:40,479
Speaker 24: Gone and ruin it for everyone.

1453
01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:42,840
Speaker 7: Have ruined it for everybody else, and now we can't

1454
01:14:42,840 --> 01:14:45,320
Speaker 7: take our dogs off leash to all these clarks. So

1455
01:14:45,400 --> 01:14:47,400
Speaker 7: thank you very much for that. Good morning twenty seven

1456
01:14:47,439 --> 01:14:48,000
Speaker 7: after eight.

1457

01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:20,160

1461
01:15:20,240 --> 01:15:23,160
Speaker 7: to tell you what's on the menu at Trump's inauguration luncheon,

1462
01:15:23,280 --> 01:15:26,200
Speaker 7: which is happening inaugural luncheon, it's called which is happening

1463
01:15:26,360 --> 01:15:29,200
Speaker 7: right now over at Capitol Hill. They've just pulled the

1464
01:15:29,320 --> 01:15:32,160
Speaker 7: champagne and apparently Donald Trump has just been poured a

1465
01:15:32,240 --> 01:15:35,559
Speaker 7: diet coke by the waitresses and the waiters who are

1466
01:15:35,600 --> 01:15:38,320
Speaker 7: serving them there. Milania, I told you earlier that I'll

1467
01:15:38,320 --> 01:15:41,240
Speaker 7: tell you what Mlani was wearing. She's wearing. How do

1468
01:15:41,320 --> 01:15:43,680
Speaker 7: you even describe the hat that she's wearing. It's if

1469
01:15:43,720 --> 01:15:48,160
Speaker 7: you know Carmen san Diego, It's a Carmen san Diego hats.

1470
01:15:48,560 --> 01:15:51,559
Speaker 7: It's dark, it's got a white band across the top

1471
01:15:51,600 --> 01:15:55,960
Speaker 7: of it. Racy, sort of detective style. Yes, almost like

1472
01:15:56,000 --> 01:15:58,800
Speaker 7: a it looks almost like a country western hat, but

1473
01:15:59,560 --> 01:16:02,240
Speaker 7: more for than there, yeah, a bit more for very

1474
01:16:02,280 --> 01:16:02,800
Speaker 7: sharp brim.

1475
01:16:03,000 --> 01:16:05,639
Speaker 24: And I was wondering, I was fair at one stage.

1476
01:16:05,640 --> 01:16:07,679
Speaker 20: I was wondering if he was actually making another attempt

1477
01:16:07,760 --> 01:16:10,559
Speaker 20: on Donald Trump's life when he bent to kiss her,

1478
01:16:11,600 --> 01:16:13,760
Speaker 20: and he literally hit his head against the brim of

1479
01:16:13,800 --> 01:16:16,000
Speaker 20: the hat and couldn't get anywhere near here. Maybe it

1480
01:16:16,200 --> 01:16:19,519
Speaker 20: is a form of isolation that she's you know, I

1481
01:16:19,600 --> 01:16:22,040
Speaker 20: think it was that the only reason she's worn it,

1482
01:16:22,160 --> 01:16:23,480
Speaker 20: so she doesn't get anywhere.

1483
01:16:23,200 --> 01:16:25,960
Speaker 7: Near her face. Well, not just him, but Biden, Jill.

1484
01:16:26,439 --> 01:16:28,080
Speaker 7: You know you don't want anything wearing it very low.

1485
01:16:28,120 --> 01:16:29,800
Speaker 24: It seems to be too big for her. It comes

1486
01:16:29,880 --> 01:16:31,719
Speaker 24: down right over and you can't see her eyes.

1487
01:16:32,000 --> 01:16:34,240
Speaker 7: I don't even know that it's her, Glenn, that's fashion.

1488
01:16:34,240 --> 01:16:39,520
Speaker 7: You wouldn't understand that. Look at you anyway. The inauguration

1489
01:16:39,640 --> 01:16:43,640
Speaker 7: London is taking place right now and Trump Trump is

1490
01:16:43,720 --> 01:16:46,439
Speaker 7: drinking his diet coke will of course tell you exactly

1491
01:16:46,479 --> 01:16:49,080
Speaker 7: what's on the menu in short order. It's just gone

1492
01:16:49,120 --> 01:16:49,960
Speaker 7: twenty two away from.

1493
01:16:49,920 --> 01:16:54,120
Speaker 18: Nineteen International correspondence with ends and eye insurance Peace of

Speaker 18: mind for New Zealand Business.

1495
01:16:57,320 --> 01:17:03,559
Speaker 7: Rodinal is a UK correspondent. Rod Good morning to you, Roder.

1496
01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:05,639
Speaker 7: It's great to have you on the show and let's

1497
01:17:05,680 --> 01:17:08,960
Speaker 7: talk about the Well, obviously it's the only story in town,

1498
01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:13,160
Speaker 7: and that's Trump. How is the UK reading this? What

1499
01:17:13,439 --> 01:17:15,880
Speaker 7: is the response going to be to this? Trump President, say,

1500
01:17:15,880 --> 01:17:17,360
Speaker 7: do you think, well, I.

1501
01:17:17,400 --> 01:17:20,240
Speaker 16: Think in fifty years, I've never known such a political change.

1502
01:17:20,720 --> 01:17:25,120
Speaker 16: It's partly related to the political change we've already seen

1503
01:17:25,200 --> 01:17:28,360
Speaker 16: in Europe. But as soon as Trump got in with

1504
01:17:28,400 --> 01:17:32,679
Speaker 16: that enormous majority, all the slings and arrows about Trump

1505
01:17:32,840 --> 01:17:38,479
Speaker 16: suddenly stopped. And I watched the BBC's coverage of the

1506
01:17:38,600 --> 01:17:42,040
Speaker 16: inauguration and it seemed quite pro Trump, which is a

1507
01:17:42,200 --> 01:17:47,160
Speaker 16: remarkable voltfath from how it's been in the past. The problem, though,

1508
01:17:48,120 --> 01:17:52,840
Speaker 16: is the trouble it leaves for the Labor government. There

1509
01:17:52,840 --> 01:17:58,720
Speaker 16: were no members of the Labor government invited to the inauguration. Crucially,

1510
01:17:59,280 --> 01:18:04,240
Speaker 16: the Neritish ambassador Peter Mandelson wasn't invited to the incuration.

1511
01:18:05,160 --> 01:18:09,840
Speaker 16: Only two British politicians did go. One was Nigel Farage,

1512
01:18:10,280 --> 01:18:14,200
Speaker 16: the leader of Reform UK, and the other a close

1513
01:18:14,280 --> 01:18:18,200
Speaker 16: friend of mine actually is Maurice Glassman, who Lord Glassman,

1514
01:18:19,120 --> 01:18:23,320
Speaker 16: who is the architecture of Blue Labor, which is a

1515
01:18:23,479 --> 01:18:26,439
Speaker 16: kind of right wing rump of the Labor Party. And

1516
01:18:26,640 --> 01:18:28,800
Speaker 16: I spoke to Morrow's but just before he went to

1517
01:18:28,880 --> 01:18:31,400
Speaker 16: the inauguration, where while he was in his Washington hotel

1518
01:18:31,479 --> 01:18:35,280
Speaker 16: room and asked him about you know, the Labor Party's

1519
01:18:35,280 --> 01:18:38,679
Speaker 16: attitude towards Trump, because they have been so rude about

1520
01:18:38,760 --> 01:18:41,840
Speaker 16: the man and he fooled a childish infantile and they

1521
01:18:41,880 --> 01:18:45,639
Speaker 16: simply don't understand. And I think that's what our government

1522
01:18:45,680 --> 01:18:48,920
Speaker 16: has got to grasp. It has to deal with Trump

1523
01:18:49,280 --> 01:18:51,479
Speaker 16: and it has to be on his side or we're

1524
01:18:51,520 --> 01:18:52,240
Speaker 16: in big trouble.

1525
01:18:53,520 --> 01:18:57,639
Speaker 7: Yeah. Absolutely, I've been watching with interest Nigel Farage talking

1526
01:18:57,760 --> 01:19:01,640
Speaker 7: to American media today is obviously over there for the inauguration.

1527
01:19:01,720 --> 01:19:06,200
Speaker 7: I'm assuming he's been talking up his chances of being

1528
01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:09,120
Speaker 7: the next PM ither in Britain.

1529
01:19:11,120 --> 01:19:14,559
Speaker 16: Yes, well, I think there's part of Nigel which does

1530
01:19:14,640 --> 01:19:17,840
Speaker 16: think that's going to happen. Partly for reasons of our

1531
01:19:17,920 --> 01:19:21,599
Speaker 16: political system I don't think it will, and partly because

1532
01:19:21,640 --> 01:19:23,880
Speaker 16: there's also a Conservative Party which has got two hundred

1533
01:19:23,960 --> 01:19:27,120
Speaker 16: cents in the House of Commons to Nigel's five. So

1534
01:19:27,560 --> 01:19:30,560
Speaker 16: I don't think it's quite as clear a couple of

1535
01:19:30,920 --> 01:19:34,000
Speaker 16: Nigel as he thinks it's going to be. However, nonetheless,

1536
01:19:34,560 --> 01:19:38,760
Speaker 16: you know he is a bridge between the UK and

1537
01:19:38,880 --> 01:19:43,200
Speaker 16: the US, and we desperately need those bridges. Maurice Grasman

1538
01:19:43,280 --> 01:19:45,200
Speaker 16: is also now offering to be a bridge between the

1539
01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:49,599
Speaker 16: UK and the US why they appointed Peter Mandelson as

1540
01:19:50,040 --> 01:19:53,800
Speaker 16: a British ambassador, where he is everything which Trump detests

1541
01:19:53,880 --> 01:19:56,360
Speaker 16: in a human being and also quite a lot of

1542
01:19:56,400 --> 01:19:58,160
Speaker 16: what I do test in a human being as well.

1543
01:19:58,240 --> 01:20:01,680
Speaker 16: But that's by the bias spose. I mean, it's just

1544
01:20:01,960 --> 01:20:05,519
Speaker 16: such a bad call and they've made so many battles.

1545
01:20:05,600 --> 01:20:09,599
Speaker 16: We have a foreign secretary who likened Trump to Hitler,

1546
01:20:09,880 --> 01:20:16,280
Speaker 16: you know, and the Labor pluffy generally was terribly rude

1547
01:20:16,360 --> 01:20:19,080
Speaker 16: when Trump was on his state visit back when he

1548
01:20:19,200 --> 01:20:21,880
Speaker 16: was president before. So there's an awful lot of ground

1549
01:20:21,920 --> 01:20:22,759
Speaker 16: that needs repairing.

1550
01:20:23,479 --> 01:20:25,600
Speaker 7: Yeah, a similar story for the Australian Labor Party in

1551
01:20:25,680 --> 01:20:28,040
Speaker 7: power at the moment as well. Yeah, you know, with

1552
01:20:28,160 --> 01:20:32,160
Speaker 7: Kevin run over there, these bridges can be mended, I suppose,

1553
01:20:32,479 --> 01:20:34,920
Speaker 7: and I mean basically what they need to do as

1554
01:20:34,920 --> 01:20:36,840
Speaker 7: a big charm offensive as one plan.

1555
01:20:39,200 --> 01:20:42,479
Speaker 16: I think that's right. But I think also, you know,

1556
01:20:42,720 --> 01:20:45,280
Speaker 16: the way Europe's gone, there are plenty of left wing

1557
01:20:45,360 --> 01:20:50,080
Speaker 16: parties in Europe which look quite Trumpian, whether it be

1558
01:20:50,560 --> 01:20:56,520
Speaker 16: the Swedish Social Democrats, the Slovakian Social Democrats, the Italian

1559
01:20:56,800 --> 01:21:01,920
Speaker 16: Georgia Maloney, I think we are lacking behind in Britain.

1560
01:21:02,320 --> 01:21:05,479
Speaker 16: The trend both in America and in Europe, and the

1561
01:21:05,560 --> 01:21:08,519
Speaker 16: Labor Party is lacking behind even more than most. And

1562
01:21:08,640 --> 01:21:10,200
Speaker 16: I think it's I think it's going to get a

1563
01:21:10,240 --> 01:21:12,880
Speaker 16: burst of realism from somewhere, and I don't see where

1564
01:21:12,920 --> 01:21:14,240
Speaker 16: that's going to come from at the moment.

1565
01:21:15,479 --> 01:21:17,320
Speaker 7: Yeah, absolutely, Rod, thank you very much for that. That's

1566
01:21:17,360 --> 01:21:21,599
Speaker 7: Rod Uk, correspondent. It is seventeen minutes away from nine

1567
01:21:21,720 --> 01:21:26,240
Speaker 7: on News Talks. Here b Brian Bridge to bring you

1568
01:21:26,360 --> 01:21:29,599
Speaker 7: up to date with the menu from the forty seventh

1569
01:21:29,840 --> 01:21:33,439
Speaker 7: presidential Inaugural Luncheon which is taking place right now in

1570
01:21:33,479 --> 01:21:36,080
Speaker 7: the United States. So Trump has got a can of

1571
01:21:36,120 --> 01:21:38,479
Speaker 7: Dike Coke in his hand, which is great. Guests are

1572
01:21:38,479 --> 01:21:41,360
Speaker 7: being welcomed with the glass of sparkling wine from New Mexico.

1573
01:21:41,880 --> 01:21:44,800
Speaker 7: Each course, the three courses apparently one seafood they've got

1574
01:21:44,880 --> 01:21:47,200
Speaker 7: to meet entrede. Then they've got a dessert. Each course

1575
01:21:47,280 --> 01:21:49,800
Speaker 7: comes with its own wine pairing. They'll be getting a

1576
01:21:49,920 --> 01:21:52,479
Speaker 7: chardine from Virginia. They will be getting a cab sev

1577
01:21:53,120 --> 01:21:55,799
Speaker 7: from Napa Valley in California, and they'll get a natural

1578
01:21:55,960 --> 01:22:01,000
Speaker 7: sparkling bit blend from Sonoma County in Cala as well.

1579
01:22:01,120 --> 01:22:04,759
Speaker 24: Whether Trump will just get dark coke, dark cake.

1580
01:22:05,160 --> 01:22:07,360
Speaker 7: Nothing wrong with I quite like a diet coke actually,

1581
01:22:08,439 --> 01:22:10,720
Speaker 7: but yeah, there you go. Ed looks lovely, doesn't it.

1582
01:22:11,200 --> 01:22:15,000
Speaker 7: Nice meal, free course meal. A lot of American families,

1583
01:22:15,040 --> 01:22:17,120
Speaker 7: of course, can't afford that over the last couple of years,

1584
01:22:17,160 --> 01:22:18,960
Speaker 7: which is part of the reason that Trump's there in

1585
01:22:19,000 --> 01:22:19,559
Speaker 7: the first place.

1586
01:22:19,720 --> 01:22:23,240
Speaker 20: You reckon when Amy klovicher the Democrat, you know, was

1587
01:22:23,280 --> 01:22:27,640
Speaker 20: appointed ahead of the inauguration committee, that she thought that

1588
01:22:27,720 --> 01:22:29,479
Speaker 20: that was all going to turn out slightly differently now

1589
01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:32,080
Speaker 20: that she's sitting next to Donald Trump all afternoon.

1590
01:22:32,600 --> 01:22:35,439
Speaker 7: It's funny because she sort of looks like you'd be

1591
01:22:35,479 --> 01:22:38,000
Speaker 7: a bit gutted, wouldn't you. She sort of looks like

1592
01:22:38,200 --> 01:22:40,360
Speaker 7: Nancy Pelosi at a distance.

1593
01:22:40,439 --> 01:22:42,600
Speaker 20: Well, of course, Pelosi's a no show, Yeah, I know,

1594
01:22:42,760 --> 01:22:44,400
Speaker 20: along with Michelle Obama obviously.

1595
01:22:45,760 --> 01:22:48,240
Speaker 7: Yeah. Well we're not sure about Michelle, right, there's a

1596
01:22:48,240 --> 01:22:49,960
Speaker 7: lot of rumors about why she might not be there,

1597
01:22:49,960 --> 01:22:51,559
Speaker 7: and it might not be anything to do with Trump,

1598
01:22:52,040 --> 01:22:54,640
Speaker 7: but anyway, that's just rumors. But Nancy Pelosi sort of

1599
01:22:54,680 --> 01:22:57,400
Speaker 7: looks like the Democrat that you're referring to sitting next

1600
01:22:57,439 --> 01:22:59,599
Speaker 7: to him. But it's not. Actually, if you look closely

1601
01:22:59,680 --> 01:23:01,920
Speaker 7: up at the TV, it's not. So it's the one

1602
01:23:01,960 --> 01:23:04,639
Speaker 7: who organized the whole gig. Today it has just gone

1603
01:23:04,680 --> 01:23:08,280
Speaker 7: sixteen minutes away from nine news Talks B, the Mic.

1604
01:23:08,160 --> 01:23:13,120
Speaker 1: Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by News Talks.

1605
01:23:13,040 --> 01:23:16,200
Speaker 7: B thirteen away from nine. Lots of texts coming in

1606
01:23:16,320 --> 01:23:18,120
Speaker 7: this one from Lloyd Morning Team. A lot of people

1607
01:23:18,200 --> 01:23:20,600
Speaker 7: don't know that Donald Trump does not drink alcohol and

1608
01:23:20,960 --> 01:23:23,800
Speaker 7: of any alcoholic drinks of any kind. It doesn't smoke,

1609
01:23:23,800 --> 01:23:26,240
Speaker 7: and he keeps himself fit with regular exercise, including a

1610
01:23:26,280 --> 01:23:28,960
Speaker 7: lot of walking. That's true. Yeah, because his brother was

1611
01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:31,840
Speaker 7: an alcoholic, so he has never had a sip of

1612
01:23:31,880 --> 01:23:35,200
Speaker 7: alcohol his entire life, and apparently never had a cigarette either.

1613
01:23:35,320 --> 01:23:38,240
Speaker 7: So I think they're keeping himself fit. Is a bit

1614
01:23:38,320 --> 01:23:38,880
Speaker 7: of a stress.

1615
01:23:39,600 --> 01:23:41,760
Speaker 24: Yeah, you were walking up some stairs before. It took

1616
01:23:41,760 --> 01:23:42,080
Speaker 24: a while.

1617
01:23:42,200 --> 01:23:44,120
Speaker 7: You can. Yeah, but you can be. He's seventy eight

1618
01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:47,360
Speaker 7: years old. You can be big and fit, can't you.

1619
01:23:47,920 --> 01:23:50,240
Speaker 24: I wasn't saying any different.

1620
01:23:50,760 --> 01:23:52,799
Speaker 7: It sounds like you're trying to fat shame the new president.

1621
01:23:54,200 --> 01:23:57,640
Speaker 7: I was trying to diet coke shame. Yeah, yeah, no,

1622
01:23:57,760 --> 01:24:00,200
Speaker 7: fair enough. I think I mean, things will get really

1623
01:24:00,240 --> 01:24:02,280
Speaker 7: crazy if instead of all the other stuff that's on

1624
01:24:02,360 --> 01:24:04,439
Speaker 7: that menu that you were just reading from before, he

1625
01:24:04,600 --> 01:24:07,519
Speaker 7: just gets served cheeseburger after cheeseburger. Whether it's diet coach,

1626
01:24:08,200 --> 01:24:10,040
Speaker 7: I suppose he walks around the golf course or does

1627
01:24:10,080 --> 01:24:12,120
Speaker 7: he get the buggy? Probably gets the buggy the golf

1628
01:24:12,160 --> 01:24:15,360
Speaker 7: camp all the time. Hey, what is life? True? It

1629
01:24:15,479 --> 01:24:18,599
Speaker 7: did quick go away going back to the golf buggy

1630
01:24:18,600 --> 01:24:20,919
Speaker 7: instead of just getting on too the next hole. Quick getaway.

1631
01:24:21,360 --> 01:24:23,720
Speaker 7: It's just gone eleven minutes away from nine on News

1632
01:24:23,760 --> 01:24:26,280
Speaker 7: talks to b and there's an article that's doing the rounds.

1633
01:24:26,320 --> 01:24:28,000
Speaker 7: You might have seen it in last night or you

1634
01:24:28,080 --> 01:24:29,760
Speaker 7: might have seen it this morning doing the rounds on

1635
01:24:29,800 --> 01:24:32,680
Speaker 7: the news. It's come via internationals, but it's on the

1636
01:24:32,760 --> 01:24:35,320
Speaker 7: local media too. It's all about Davos, you know, where

1637
01:24:35,360 --> 01:24:38,320
Speaker 7: the World Economic Forum with all the politicians and stuff

1638
01:24:38,360 --> 01:24:41,960
Speaker 7: go and meet. Every year. Oxfam does a report that

1639
01:24:42,120 --> 01:24:44,879
Speaker 7: coincides with it where they basically go out and bash billionaires.

1640
01:24:44,880 --> 01:24:48,200
Speaker 7: So they've said in this one that billionaires wealth grew

1641
01:24:48,360 --> 01:24:51,800
Speaker 7: three times faster in twenty twenty four, So all the

1642
01:24:51,840 --> 01:24:54,080
Speaker 7: billionaires in the world, their wealth grew three times faster

1643
01:24:54,160 --> 01:24:55,880
Speaker 7: in twenty twenty four than it did the year before.

1644
01:24:56,360 --> 01:25:00,479
Speaker 7: They say, over the next decade, we will have five millionaires.

1645
01:25:00,760 --> 01:25:02,880
Speaker 7: In the next ten years, we'll have five chillion years

1646
01:25:03,200 --> 01:25:06,719
Speaker 7: and last year they predicted we would have just one. Okay,

1647
01:25:06,880 --> 01:25:08,840
Speaker 7: so people are getting richer. There's a few rich dudes

1648
01:25:08,880 --> 01:25:12,120
Speaker 7: getting richer. Fine, here's where it gets interesting, though. They

1649
01:25:12,160 --> 01:25:15,280
Speaker 7: say the number of people in poverty has barely budged

1650
01:25:15,520 --> 01:25:19,040
Speaker 7: since nineteen ninety and you know, they're basically using this

1651
01:25:19,120 --> 01:25:21,639
Speaker 7: as as an attack on capitalism. These guys are getting

1652
01:25:21,680 --> 01:25:24,600
Speaker 7: really rich and poverty hasn't moved since nineteen ninety, but

1653
01:25:24,760 --> 01:25:31,000
Speaker 7: actually it has. We've had huge population growth since nineteen ninety.

1654
01:25:31,439 --> 01:25:34,840
Speaker 7: So they're about seven hundred thousand people, sorry, seven hundred

1655
01:25:34,880 --> 01:25:37,800
Speaker 7: million people who are living in poverty right now on

1656
01:25:37,960 --> 01:25:40,799
Speaker 7: planet Earth. And that is a bad thing. That's an indictment.

1657
01:25:41,520 --> 01:25:45,120
Speaker 7: But that's of eight million people. Back in nineteen ninety

1658
01:25:45,200 --> 01:25:48,120
Speaker 7: we had just five million billion people on planet Earth.

1659
01:25:48,240 --> 01:25:52,479
Speaker 7: So seven hundred million out of eight billion versus five

1660
01:25:52,560 --> 01:25:56,200
Speaker 7: billion is quite a difference, isn't it. Yes, So there

1661
01:25:56,240 --> 01:25:57,760
Speaker 7: you go. They're trying to obviously make a bit of

1662
01:25:57,760 --> 01:25:59,200
Speaker 7: a song and dance about that. But I just sort

1663
01:25:59,200 --> 01:26:00,600
Speaker 7: of bring it to your attention because it's one of

1664
01:26:00,600 --> 01:26:03,720
Speaker 7: those things that sort of annoys me. Have a crack

1665
01:26:03,720 --> 01:26:07,559
Speaker 7: at capitalism, and extreme poverty has halved. This is according

1666
01:26:07,600 --> 01:26:10,719
Speaker 7: to the UN. Extreme poverty has halved from nineteen ninety

1667
01:26:11,000 --> 01:26:13,720
Speaker 7: to twenty fifteen. So the system, I mean, I know

1668
01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:15,760
Speaker 7: it's not perfect. I know it has its fault.

1669
01:26:15,840 --> 01:26:19,000
Speaker 24: We probably don't really need that many trillionaires do it.

1670
01:26:19,640 --> 01:26:23,639
Speaker 7: No, we don't. But also if the system that enables

1671
01:26:23,720 --> 01:26:28,439
Speaker 7: the trillionaires also lifts people out of abject poverty, then

1672
01:26:28,520 --> 01:26:32,599
Speaker 7: the system is worth having around I think. Anyway, nine

1673
01:26:32,640 --> 01:26:33,519
Speaker 7: away from nine.

1674
01:26:34,120 --> 01:26:37,240
Speaker 2: Ray and Bridge on the Mike Hosking Breakfast with the

1675
01:26:37,400 --> 01:26:39,000
Speaker 2: Range Rover Villa News.

1676
01:26:38,880 --> 01:26:41,320
Speaker 7: Togs, there'd be seven away from nine. And this is

1677
01:26:41,360 --> 01:26:44,200
Speaker 7: from Lester Levy, who's the guy that's been put in

1678
01:26:44,360 --> 01:26:47,439
Speaker 7: charge of our health system as the czar. Basically we

1679
01:26:47,560 --> 01:26:49,360
Speaker 7: tried to get him on the show today after the

1680
01:26:49,439 --> 01:26:52,639
Speaker 7: reshuffle yesterday. He told us I look forward to working

1681
01:26:52,720 --> 01:26:56,240
Speaker 7: with the new minister and I appreciate his strong desire

1682
01:26:56,400 --> 01:26:59,400
Speaker 7: to push hard to deliver on national health targets. Will

1683
01:26:59,439 --> 01:27:02,080
Speaker 7: be sharply focused on that to deliver better health et cetera,

1684
01:27:02,120 --> 01:27:04,040
Speaker 7: et cetera, et cetera. He's not coming on the show today.

1685
01:27:04,040 --> 01:27:05,960
Speaker 7: Basically is the long and short of it. He had

1686
01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:09,559
Speaker 7: a meeting with Simon Brown yesterday. His contract comes up

1687
01:27:09,680 --> 01:27:13,040
Speaker 7: in July, and it didn't sound and this is just

1688
01:27:13,280 --> 01:27:16,439
Speaker 7: basically vibe reading, but it didn't sound like things would

1689
01:27:16,439 --> 01:27:19,160
Speaker 7: be good for a reappointment for Lester Levy. I did

1690
01:27:19,240 --> 01:27:21,920
Speaker 7: always find it weird that he was also doing part

1691
01:27:22,000 --> 01:27:25,160
Speaker 7: time work at the university, still lecturing there, while he

1692
01:27:25,320 --> 01:27:28,360
Speaker 7: was also supposedly fixing the deep rot in our health system.

1693
01:27:29,680 --> 01:27:30,479
Speaker 7: That'sn't lecture.

1694
01:27:30,520 --> 01:27:35,160
Speaker 20: Isn't lecturing at universities, just replaying your your zoom, your

1695
01:27:35,200 --> 01:27:37,080
Speaker 20: greatest cut back in COVID these days.

1696
01:27:37,960 --> 01:27:40,880
Speaker 7: That's true. It's probably not a full time job, but

1697
01:27:41,360 --> 01:27:44,000
Speaker 7: running the health system should be a full time job,

1698
01:27:44,120 --> 01:27:46,080
Speaker 7: not a part time job. I would have thought, anyway,

1699
01:27:46,240 --> 01:27:48,720
Speaker 7: we'll see what happens to him come July. And I

1700
01:27:49,000 --> 01:27:51,640
Speaker 7: promised it earlier. I'd mentioned the Doge or however you

1701
01:27:51,760 --> 01:27:54,479
Speaker 7: say it, Douge Doze, the Department of Government Efficiency that

1702
01:27:54,600 --> 01:27:58,080
Speaker 7: Elon Musk is running. Apparently he has hired dozens of

1703
01:27:58,160 --> 01:28:01,680
Speaker 7: staff is already ahead of time, who are working out

1704
01:28:01,720 --> 01:28:04,960
Speaker 7: of his SpaceX office in Washington, d C. And they

1705
01:28:05,000 --> 01:28:08,479
Speaker 7: are communicating using encrypted messaging. Now there's a law firm

1706
01:28:08,520 --> 01:28:12,840
Speaker 7: who says that is against the law. It violates transparency

1707
01:28:12,960 --> 01:28:16,519
Speaker 7: laws disclosure about hiring. And they are now taking a

1708
01:28:16,640 --> 01:28:19,680
Speaker 7: lawsuit against Doge. And they did this as soon as

1709
01:28:19,840 --> 01:28:23,360
Speaker 7: the inauguration took place today. In fact, I'm just looking

1710
01:28:23,400 --> 01:28:26,320
Speaker 7: at a screen and Elon Musk is speaking at the

1711
01:28:26,360 --> 01:28:27,559
Speaker 7: inauguration event right now.

1712
01:28:28,240 --> 01:28:28,600
Speaker 6: Thank you.

1713
01:28:34,560 --> 01:28:36,000
Speaker 7: He's just touching his heart.

1714
01:28:38,680 --> 01:28:42,320
Speaker 24: It is thanks to you that the future of civilization

1715
01:28:42,840 --> 01:28:43,360
Speaker 24: is as shired.

1716
01:28:44,600 --> 01:28:46,360
Speaker 7: Well, we're all peace about that, thank you.

1717
01:28:46,760 --> 01:28:48,040
Speaker 24: He was one of the ones you see that Ai

1718
01:28:48,200 --> 01:28:49,360
Speaker 24: was going to kill us, all right, so.

1719
01:28:49,880 --> 01:28:54,320
Speaker 7: Who apparently, well, Donald will say the don will save us.

1720
01:28:54,400 --> 01:28:56,599
Speaker 7: It is far away from nine trending.

1721
01:28:56,920 --> 01:29:00,639
Speaker 2: Now we stop too much.

1722
01:29:01,360 --> 01:29:03,600
Speaker 7: Let's hope that weird feud at the Aussie Open has

1723
01:29:03,640 --> 01:29:06,960
Speaker 7: now come to an end, although the man apologizing may

1724
01:29:07,000 --> 01:29:08,760
Speaker 7: have opened up a whole new can of worms. This

1725
01:29:08,920 --> 01:29:11,880
Speaker 7: is the Drakovic versus the nine News reporter Tony Jones.

1726
01:29:12,360 --> 01:29:15,560
Speaker 7: Djokovic unhappy after Tony said this during a live broadcast.

1727
01:29:15,880 --> 01:29:17,840
Speaker 7: Novak He's overrated.

1728
01:29:18,400 --> 01:29:21,240
Speaker 13: Novaksa has the no back kick.

1729
01:29:21,320 --> 01:29:21,680
Speaker 24: Him out.

1730
01:29:22,760 --> 01:29:24,000
Speaker 4: Oh I'm glad they can't hear me.

1731
01:29:24,520 --> 01:29:27,639
Speaker 7: Novak demands an apology, refused to do an on court interview,

1732
01:29:28,040 --> 01:29:29,800
Speaker 7: and the apology had to come.

1733
01:29:30,240 --> 01:29:33,200
Speaker 26: The comments were made on the news on the Friday night,

1734
01:29:33,600 --> 01:29:35,120
Speaker 26: which I considered to be banter.

1735
01:29:35,439 --> 01:29:36,920
Speaker 4: I considered it to be humor.

1736
01:29:37,360 --> 01:29:40,400
Speaker 26: Having said that, I was made aware on the Saturday

1737
01:29:40,520 --> 01:29:44,280
Speaker 26: morning from Tennis Australia via the Djokovic camp that the

1738
01:29:44,360 --> 01:29:47,400
Speaker 26: Jokovic camp was not happy at all with those comments.

1739
01:29:47,479 --> 01:29:47,639
Speaker 7: Now.

1740
01:29:48,000 --> 01:29:52,599
Speaker 26: As such, I immediately contacted the Djokovic camp and issued

1741
01:29:52,760 --> 01:29:55,200
Speaker 26: an apology to them. So this is forty eight hours

1742
01:29:55,240 --> 01:29:59,519
Speaker 26: ago for any disrespect that Novak felt that I had caused,

1743
01:30:00,080 --> 01:30:02,920
Speaker 26: and as I stand here now, I stand by that

1744
01:30:03,080 --> 01:30:04,320
Speaker 26: apology to Novak.

1745
01:30:04,720 --> 01:30:07,320
Speaker 7: Well, hopefully we can all move on back to the tennis.
