1 00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,640 Speaker 1: International correspondence with endsit Eye insurance, peace of mind for 2 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:09,440 Speaker 1: New Zealand business. Marry Old's Australia correspondent, he mas got 3 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:11,039 Speaker 1: a good afternoon. Do you have that fair enough? 4 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,240 Speaker 2: If these guys at the AFL are paying the bills, 5 00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:14,960 Speaker 2: they get to demand what Katie sings. 6 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:19,159 Speaker 1: Oh God, bullister, Yeah, I mean look, it was a 7 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:21,080 Speaker 1: bit of a sort of a mind. Look, it's not 8 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:24,640 Speaker 1: like Tatay. She's not like Taylor Swift. She's like b Grade. 9 00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: Now anyway, they were all wetting themselves down in Melbourne. 10 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: We've got Cody Perry with a grand Final. Well, Katy 11 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:33,839 Speaker 1: Perry said, look, I'd like to do a couple of 12 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 1: new songs. Oh no, so the old suits at the 13 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 1: AFL you can't do any new stuff. We want the 14 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:44,160 Speaker 1: old songs like Raw, and we want teenage dream and Firework. 15 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 1: Well I went and had to listen this morning because 16 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 1: I knew they wanted to mention it. And I know 17 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: one song that Raw, Yeah you hear me Raw. I've 18 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 1: had great pop song, but every other song sounds exactly 19 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 1: the same. Is that blasphemous to say that? God Almighty 20 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 1: as you can sing any song, it all sounds the same. 21 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 2: Yes, I mean, I can see how you would come 22 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,759 Speaker 2: to that conclusion, Muzzle. But the fact of the matter 23 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 2: is they are not all the same, some of them. 24 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 2: No they I mean, look, you and I probably sit 25 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 2: on the same place with out our views on Katie 26 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 2: Pierry's musical ability, but some of her songs. But if 27 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 2: you can believe it, the songs on the new album 28 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 2: are even particularly more shite than the last one. 29 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: So we don't want to Oh, I love it, I 30 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: love it. That's fair. 31 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 2: I mean, if they're paying the good money, they get 32 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 2: to decide, don't they. 33 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: I guess so, I mean yeah, I mean they've hired 34 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,320 Speaker 1: of for seven I think that singing seven songs and 35 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: a half times, she's probably going to get a couple 36 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 1: of million dollars. So she's she's doing a bit better 37 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: than my band, Rocking Horse. I can assure you. Yeah, 38 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: I played drums and sing do. 39 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 2: You hold on? Are you the lead singer from behind 40 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 2: the drums? 41 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: Well, when our female singer turns up, she's the lead singer. 42 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 1: When she doesn't turn up, when she gets hammered, I 43 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: am that's that is. 44 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 2: A hard job, because you can the drumming is already 45 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,919 Speaker 2: quite a physical exertion without then having to actually project 46 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 2: your voice. 47 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 1: Oh it's all right, mate, I can just. 48 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 2: Give us a sample. What do you sound like when 49 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 2: you sing. 50 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: A pull in the Nazareth was feeling about a half past. 51 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, if Katie doesn't want to do it, 52 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 2: you should do it. It's not bad mus I'd come 53 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 2: and see you. 54 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: Hey, very good. Yeah. 55 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 2: What about the reserve banks? And they've decided to hold 56 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 2: the interest rates? 57 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:27,959 Speaker 1: Have they? Yeah? 58 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 2: They have. 59 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: What's at four point three to five has been that 60 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 1: way for nearly four years, last interest rate cut. Ten 61 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 1: months since the last rate move though, so it's it's 62 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: being held steady. There was a bit of speculation obviously 63 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: on the back of what the US Central Bank did 64 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: last week. Now, of course the big half a percent 65 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 1: interest rate cut, but the Reserve Bank holding firm here. 66 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,079 Speaker 1: It's not gonna move no matter how much it gets 67 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: bullied by the government and bullied by the opposition and 68 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 1: bully by the Greens. The Reserve Bank is saying, bugger off, 69 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: we are independent. We will decide when it's appropriate to 70 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: cut interest rates. So, I mean, if they thought Michelle 71 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: Bullock was going to be a pushover. Think again, boys 72 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 1: and they're all boys and suits. This woman is eminently 73 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,839 Speaker 1: capable and she's more obviously tough enough to hold her own. 74 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: So no cut. And what economists are now suggesting here 75 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 1: that it's not going to be until early next year 76 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: when rates come down in Australia. 77 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, I think we can believe that. Hey listen, okay, 78 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 2: So it's not the first time that Ozzie's have gone 79 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 2: to the super fans to pay for cosmetic stuff like 80 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 2: teeth and boobs and stuff. But apparently you guys are 81 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 2: ramping this up. 82 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 1: Why because they want to, you know, look nice now 83 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: and don't worry about it when I'm old and gray. 84 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: Eight hundred million dollars was taken out of superinnuation accounts 85 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: last year, according to the Australian Tax Office, eight hundred 86 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: million to play for, you know, to pay for things 87 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: like bigger breasts, smaller breasts, you know, possibly white teeth, 88 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: looks like the Southern Alps marching across your face and 89 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: I mean hello eight hundred and here's the stat that 90 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: came out from the ATO. You take twenty k out 91 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: of your super account when you're forty. That's one hundred 92 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: thousand dollars you're going to miss out on at sixty 93 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: five when you retire. Now, do you really want to 94 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: have that brilliant smile and bigger breasts? Now? I guess 95 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 1: many people do, because eight hundred million dollars is not 96 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 1: small change. 97 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 2: Muz. What about this is an idea though, because there 98 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 2: are some photographs of these people with fixed up faces, 99 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 2: and I'll tell you what they look They look amazing, 100 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 2: And I reckon you could actually earn more with those 101 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 2: pearlas than if you had a bunch of sort of 102 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 2: jaggedy teeth, don't you. 103 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: Think, mat if you're still a bogan or a bozo, 104 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: you can't. But he tie your shoelacers up, don't matter 105 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: how good your smile is. 106 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 2: Really, No, you make a very good point. Actually you 107 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 2: are right, muz. Thank you very much appreciated.
