But what 11 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:32,880 Speaker 3: does that actually mean?

And in breaking news that is 24 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 3: not breaking and not surprising. The straight upfor Moos is 25 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 3: not open. 26 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 4: It was a grade violation, intentional grade violation. You cannot 27 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:20,400 Speaker 4: ask for a ceasefire and then accept terms and conditions, 28 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 4: accept in all the areas that you know ceasfire is 29 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 4: applied to and name Lebanon exactly, Lebanon in that and 30 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 4: then your ally just start a massacre. Actually it was 31 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 4: a sort of genocide, you know, by the regime of 32 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 4: Israeli in Lebanon, just immediately after the ceasfire was accepted. 33 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 3: We've got some numbers for you on petrel and diesel 34 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 3: prices here and when they might start to change. Meanwhile, 35 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 3: Mark Rutta, this is the NATO boss. He's been speaking 36 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 3: in Washington after he had tints meeting with Trump. 37 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 2: Let me be clear, this alliance is not whistling past 38 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 2: the graveyard. Alice recognize and I recognize. We are in 39 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 2: a period of profound change in the Transatlantic Alights. Europe 40 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 2: is assuming a creator and fair share of the task 41 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 2: of providing for its conventional defense. 42 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,799 Speaker 3: To La the ketamine Queen. This is Matthew Perry sold 43 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 3: them all the drugs. Friends, actor fifteen years behind bars. 44 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 6: If you don't feel some sense of shame or sorrow 45 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 6: and you're not even humor. 46 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,359 Speaker 3: Finally, this morning, a London thief easy cash he was 47 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 3: after and steals a handbag and a pub jailed for 48 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 3: two years. Seems like quite a half sentence. Well here's why. 49 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 3: Turns out there was a five point three million dollar 50 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 3: egg and watch set inside the handbag, which are both 51 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 3: still missing now the egg and watch set for Bergier. 52 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 3: I think that's how you say it, Michael, No, of course, 53 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 3: but yeah, very expensive and still nowhere to be found. 54 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge on early edition with Spark for business technology 55 00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 1: that keeps business moving. 56 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 3: Used nine after five nine two is the number to text. 57 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 3: Do you put your kids in childcare? In daycare is? 58 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 3: And do you worry what it's doing to their brains? 59 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 3: So much time in spend in childcare. It's the generation 60 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 3: childcare basically any kid that's been raised at the moment. 61 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 3: This is just a reality. And there's a study out 62 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 3: of Australia which I think parents should probably pay attention to. 63 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 3: And maybe you have seen this already. It came out 64 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 3: just a couple of days ago. So children who spend 65 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 3: long hours in childcare have a higher risk of emotional development. Issues, 66 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 3: learning problems. Forty hours a week. You got problems basically, 67 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 3: And whose child is in daycare childcare forty hours a week, 68 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 3: well quite a few of them actually, So this is 69 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 3: a government study. They looked at almost three hundred thousand 70 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 3: kids from birth to their first year at school. Social 71 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 3: competence problems, emotional maturity problems, biggest impact when compared to 72 00:03:55,080 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 3: children who had no formal childcare whatsoever. One of the 73 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 3: reasons they reckon is well, it's quite a simple one. 74 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 3: And if you're a parent, you will know this. That 75 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 3: children's brains develop and they thrive being developed on relationships 76 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 3: with one or two adults. So they need a secure 77 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:19,919 Speaker 3: sense of attachment between adult and child. And if you 78 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 3: have lots of staff turning over and churning over in 79 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 3: a childcare center, then the kid is not getting the 80 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 3: one on one time that they need, and so you 81 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 3: have problems. So what do you do with this information? 82 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 3: Because if you are a two parent family, likely you 83 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 3: are both working and you need to in order to 84 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 3: pay the bills. So what the hell do you do 85 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 3: about it? I mean, you can't go back to the 86 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 3: good old days where moms stayed at home and looked 87 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 3: after the kids and you probably can't say that anymore 88 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,239 Speaker 3: or dad stayed at home and looked after the kids. 89 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 3: How do you afford to do that? But at the 90 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 3: same time, how do you not make your kid end 91 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 3: up with development problems and learning issues? Eleven after five 92 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 3: talk about ecees here in New Zealand. Next, also I'll 93 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 3: give you those numbers on petrol News Talk sat B. 94 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 1: The first word on the News of the Day early 95 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 1: edition with Ryan Bridge and Spark for Business Technology that 96 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: keeps Business Moving. 97 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 3: News Talk SEB. For Bursha, thank you, dear Textern. Nine two. 98 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 3: The number for Bursha is the egg and the egg 99 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 3: set that was worth more than just bloody expensive. Is 100 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 3: what it is? Five million dollars SOLN in a handbag 101 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 3: in London. Guy got two years right, five point thirteen. 102 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 3: So average diesel price right now in New Zealand is 103 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 3: three eighty eight. This is according to gas B ninety 104 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 3: one is three dollars forty eight. Now. The Commerce Commission, 105 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 3: they've been doing a weekly update to see whether we're 106 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 3: getting price gougised when we fill up, and they put 107 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 3: their latest report out yesterday, so with ninety one they've 108 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 3: said it is now only up fifty four cents a 109 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 3: liter on its pre war price, but the average that 110 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 3: that's what the importers are paying, but the average retail 111 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 3: price is still up ninety three cents, so there's a 112 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 3: gap emerging. When are we going to close the gap 113 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 3: is the question. For refined diesel that was a dollar 114 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 3: thirteen a liter higher than it was in February twenty eight, 115 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 3: which was before the war, the retail price a dollar 116 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 3: ninety two higher. So the question then becomes when are 117 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 3: they going to drop the prices at the pump. The 118 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 3: Commerce Commission has said there's no evidence of price gouging 119 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 3: at this point. I mean oil overnight was back up 120 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 3: over one hundred dollars a barrel for US volatile prices, 121 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 3: so it will take some time before they settle down. 122 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 3: But how much time I hope that the AA in 123 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 3: the UK this morning has said they expect to see 124 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 3: prices coming down should the cease fire hold in two weeks. 125 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 3: Bridge Almost half of early childhood centers arned up to scratch. 126 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 3: This is according to a new review from Erro. Forty 127 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 3: seven percent of standalone services were below the quality threshold 128 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,280 Speaker 3: for twenty four to two. But that's actually an improvement 129 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,159 Speaker 3: from sixty four percent that weren't up scratched last time. 130 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 3: Obviously still not great. Simon Loeber is with US CEO 131 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 3: of Early Childhood Counsel Simon, good morning, Good morning, Ryan, 132 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 3: Good to have you on the program. So is this 133 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 3: something we should be really concerned about, like what types 134 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 3: of standards are they not meeting? 135 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 7: Not really, No, I wouldn't be concerned about this. It 136 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 7: is the Education Review Office doing their job and what 137 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:35,239 Speaker 7: we're seeing is a significant improvement from just one year. 138 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 7: And whilst I know it does sound like a low percentage, 139 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 7: it shows the sensitivity of the reviews that they're doing 140 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 7: that they do. They do try and look at a 141 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 7: lot of things, and if they see something slightly out 142 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 7: of place, it's going to be appearing on your review 143 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 7: and so you will end up with pretty much everyone 144 00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 7: getting found with something somewhere that's not quite right. And yeah, 145 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 7: it's it is concerning, but it is why you have 146 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 7: the reviews, so that you have the early chartered services 147 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 7: focused on improvement. And if we look at those areas 148 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 7: that made up that fifty three percent, the best performing 149 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 7: area was around learners and their learning, which was sixty 150 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 7: five percent, So that were above, so that was really good. 151 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 7: The weakest area was actually in professional learning and development, 152 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 7: which tallies with what we're hearing of a workforce is 153 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 7: under massive pressure with not a lot of help. 154 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 3: But that still leaves an on the learning thirty five 155 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 3: percent that are below the standard. Presumably, I mean that's 156 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 3: not great. 157 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,319 Speaker 7: Well, it's it is what it is, ryan that is 158 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 7: and it's an improvement on the year before. So yeah, 159 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 7: if people don't like to see it, but that is 160 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 7: the state of our early childhood provision and that's this 161 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 7: independent of it evaluation team that showed us every year 162 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,959 Speaker 7: and it's actually a massive improvement. There was seventeen percent 163 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 7: lower the previous year. 164 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 3: How do you get if you're a parent, how do 165 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 3: you get a good one? 166 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 2: Then? 167 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 3: You know, how do you know who's good? 168 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 7: Well, that's that's a different question altogether, isn't it. It's 169 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 7: a bit like as that cake done. Like personally, you know, 170 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 7: you've got to you've got to find the right service 171 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,719 Speaker 7: for your child, and every child is different and there 172 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 7: are quite a lot of different options out there. So 173 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 7: if you're going into centers and you need long hours 174 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 7: of care for a day, then you definitely need to 175 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 7: go and visit a few different centers, and it's a 176 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 7: bit like looking at properties you've it's only by looking 177 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 7: at a few that you start to build up a 178 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 7: sense yourself about you know, what is it we are 179 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 7: looking for for our child? And you might get it 180 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 7: wrong as well. You could find one that you think 181 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 7: looks really good, but actually you're doesn't settle comfortably and 182 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 7: that's important too. 183 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 3: Simon good to be on the program. Thank you, Simon 184 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,439 Speaker 3: Labor's CEO of Early Childhood Counsel. It's eighteen minutes after 185 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 3: five Ryan Bridge.

Do you ask your kid? How was that? 188 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 2: Oh? 189 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 3: No, that was the quality of the education was excellent. 190 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 3: I will go back. How do you how are you 191 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 3: to decide? Eighteen minutes after five News TALKSB we'll talk 192 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 3: about the motorsport in Topel Next. 193 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: Get ahead of the headlines on early edition with Ryan 194 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: Bridge and Spark for Business Technology that keeps Business Moving 195 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: News TALKSB. 196 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 3: News Talk SIB it is five twenty. Great to have 197 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 3: your company this morning. Loads of texts coming on this 198 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 3: one from Brian says Ryan, I think your information on 199 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 3: diesel prices way off currently paying over four dollars a liter. Yes, Brian, 200 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 3: you will be at your pump. The number I gave 201 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 3: three out of eight was the average for New Zealand. 202 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 3: But there definitely are some stations that are charging you 203 00:10:56,080 --> 00:11:00,839 Speaker 3: north north of four dollars a liter. Another here is Ryan. 204 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 3: My missus and I haven't heard that one in a while. 205 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 3: Have a sun due in July. We are moving back 206 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 3: to Australia es since you're going to double my income, 207 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 3: a big reason being that she will not have to 208 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 3: work and we can avoid childcare, which is actually the 209 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 3: way to go. Because a friend of mine is moving 210 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 3: while considering a move to Perth at the moment, and 211 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 3: she's got two kids, two young kids, and she said 212 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 3: the price of childcare, the cost of childcare over there 213 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 3: is actually double what they would be paying for it here. 214 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 3: And whether that's because twenty hours free or what, I 215 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 3: don't know, or maybe the quality is better over there, 216 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 3: though they've had some pretty dodgy stories on childcare and 217 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 3: Australia lately. For whatever reason, it is twice the price 218 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 3: off here. But as you say, if your wages are 219 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 3: doubling two then maybe one of you can afford to 220 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:48,199 Speaker 3: stay home. 221 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: Bryan Bridge. 222 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 3: Let's go to the UK. Very interesting press conference overnight. 223 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 3: So three Russian subs spend a month trying to spy 224 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 3: on and survey the Britain undersea cables and pipelines. A 225 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 3: whole month. This is while the whole world was watching Iran. 226 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 3: The sneaky Russian subs were very busy inside the UK 227 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 3: Exclusive Economic Zone. Here's John Healey, he's the Defense Minister. 228 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 3: We've spoken about him previously. 229 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 8: The President putin, I see, we see you, We see 230 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 8: your activity over our cables and our pipelines, and you 231 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 8: should know that any attempt to damage them will not 232 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,719 Speaker 8: be tolerated and will have serious consequences. 233 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. So what exactly would they do to them? As 234 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 3: the good five hundred UK military personnel involved in watching 235 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 3: them watching the cables. By the way, this is what 236 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,679 Speaker 3: they've revealed overnight. And once the Russians realized they were 237 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 3: being watched, they scarf it apparently. But the cables have 238 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,679 Speaker 3: been cut or damaged in the Baltic Sea. In Taiwan, 239 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 3: they reckon and it fixed internet traffic basically, and they reckon. 240 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 3: It's what you do or what you would try and 241 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 3: do before you go to war with someone. I'm not 242 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 3: suggesting that Ruster is going to go to war, but 243 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,959 Speaker 3: they are certainly watching them very closely and quite concerned 244 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 3: about the whole thing. So they had a Royal Navy 245 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 3: warship and a Royal Air Force pight aircraft alongside allies interestingly, 246 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 3: and they were watching them, monitoring them twenty four seven 247 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 3: and have told them basically, we see you don't come back. 248 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 3: Bugger off. Twenty three after five the early. 249 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 1: Edition full show podcast on iHeartRadio Power by Newstalk ZIB. 250 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 3: News TALKSB. It's five twenty five. So Mark Rutter, the 251 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 3: NATO bosses I mentioned earlier he was meeting with Trump, 252 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 3: and he spoke a little bit on CNN just in 253 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 3: the last week while about how the meeting went. They 254 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 3: were talking obviously about Iran and the Strait and the 255 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 3: fact that Trump's not happy that the Europeans haven't been 256 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 3: helping him as much as he would have liked. 257 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 2: Let me be absolutely clear, he is clearly disappointed and 258 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 2: with the many natural allies, and I can see his point. 259 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 2: But at the same time I was also able to 260 00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 2: appointed to the fact that the large majority of European 261 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 2: Nations has been helpful with basing, with logestics, with UFRA flights, 262 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 2: with making sure that they lift up to the commitments. 263 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 2: And there is also right splasts support for the fact 264 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 2: that degrading the nuclear and the ballistic missholl capacity from 265 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 2: Iran was really kuschel and that only the US was 266 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 2: able at this point. 267 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 3: To do that. We're going to get to our UK 268 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 3: correspondent on that at quarter to six this morning, Bryan Bridge. 269 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 3: Energy security is shaping up to be the hottest item 270 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 3: on this year's election agenda. I reckon, and there's a 271 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 3: good reason for that too. Ask any business right now 272 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 3: who is about to renew or trying to renew an 273 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 3: energy contract. Ask any transport business who's battling the price 274 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 3: of diesel, or any factory or mill thinking about considering 275 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 3: mass layoffs as they are in Kaitai right now and 276 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 3: shutting up shop in Hawke's Bay. The CEOs there have 277 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 3: got together. They are organizing an energy summit in June. 278 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 3: Their business leaders voted energy their number one concern. And 279 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 3: when business says something like this, you listen. Bombing in 280 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 3: the Middle East might be on pause Barbe Route, but 281 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 3: the energy price battle is far from one, and it's 282 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 3: time for our politicians, I think, to put their swords 283 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 3: down and just agree kumbai R on a long term 284 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 3: energy strategy that addresses the new world and the new 285 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 3: reality that we're living in. Post ceasefire, oil is still 286 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 3: more than thirty percent more expensive than it was before 287 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 3: the war. Gas forty percent higher. There's a piece in 288 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 3: the Economist well worth the read that sets out the 289 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 3: problem quite well. The infrastructures being damaged in the golf 290 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 3: takes time to repair. When the tankers start moving, the 291 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 3: insurance premiums will cost an arm in a leg. That's 292 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 3: before ships take the risk of actually sailing back in 293 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 3: the opposite direction back into the golf again. While this 294 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 3: shaky ceasefire is still in play, We've now all learnt 295 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 3: the hard way that it takes just a few drones 296 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 3: and a few terrorists with some speedboats to choke supply. 297 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 3: Not all the supply. Sure oil will find a way 298 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 3: from other red jens overland by pipes, but all this 299 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 3: takes time and costs money. I had Chloe Swarbrick and 300 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,239 Speaker 3: David Seymour on my show yesterday and they both disagreed 301 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 3: unsurprisingly with each other over what mix of energy solutions 302 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 3: that we need to keep the trucks, the factories and 303 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 3: the businesses moving. But the fact is they both had 304 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 3: some valid points and all parties, i think ought to 305 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 3: compromise and agree on an energy plan that we can 306 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 3: all well agree on, whether it's al ingng and the 307 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 3: government's under an art about that, whether it's overbuilding renewables, 308 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 3: as Sir Rodrury has argued, more drill, baby drill, Uncle 309 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 3: Shane tanks at Marsden point, coal for Huntley or a 310 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 3: combination of all of the above. Political consensus is the 311 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 3: missing ingredient to ensure that nz Inc can keep the 312 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 3: bloody lights on in mo minutes after five News Talk 313 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 3: said b I'll tell you about the winners, because we've 314 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 3: had lots of losers from the war, but there have 315 00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 3: been some winners. Our friends across the Tasman they are 316 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 3: certain weld charmers. The Treasurer he's got a budget May twelfth. 317 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,239 Speaker 3: They've got a structural deficit like us. They reckon the 318 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:12,640 Speaker 3: windfall from the Iran war that will fill his coffers 319 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:16,399 Speaker 3: eight point one billion dollars in extra tax revenues. That 320 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 3: is thank you to coal, thank you to iron Ore, 321 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:23,959 Speaker 3: and a little bit thank you to gold which has 322 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:25,880 Speaker 3: had a good run over the last twelve months. So 323 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 3: the lucky country continues. Is it luck or is it 324 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,919 Speaker 3: just that they dig for their resources out of the ground? 325 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:33,199 Speaker 6: You know? 326 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 3: News Talk ZB you said my Heart from the FEEDO. 327 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:47,199 Speaker 1: On your radio and online on iHeartRadio early edition with 328 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge and Spark for Business Technology that keeps business moving. 329 00:17:52,160 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 3: News Talk ZEDB twenty far away from six zero on 330 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 3: News Talks they be We'll get to Reuter's senior Middle 331 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,879 Speaker 3: East correspondent before six o'clock.

And that's 341 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 3: no surprise because it is dominated by big energy companies. 342 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 3: In fact, Equinor, which is their largest energy company. Their 343 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 3: stocks are up thirty percent on the beginning of the war, 344 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,880 Speaker 3: as is var Energy, another big one there for them. 345 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 3: It's one of the only countries that is seeing stock 346 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 3: index rises, of the stock index rise. This is as 347 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 3: hopes of the stables fire were fading. Yes, today these 348 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 3: guys were going back up again. So there are some winners. 349 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 3: And basically if you're in the business of oil, or 350 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 3: if you're in the business of minerals, then you're doing 351 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 3: quite well, thank you very much.

Didn't he cry in a council meeting 370 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 3: about climate change? Do you remember that? 371 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,480 Speaker 9: You've got a good memory.

How's the weather. 374 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 9: Mainly fine here today and north easterly this afternoon? The 375 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 9: high sixteenth cheers Callum clear. 376 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 3: On christ Church morning, Clear, good morning. What's driving the 377 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 3: marathon growth? There? 378 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 10: Yeah, christ Church Marathon. So it's exploded in size. We've 379 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 10: heard this year that it has doubled the participants over 380 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 10: the past three years. We've got more than eight thousand joggers, 381 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 10: walkers and runners flooding the central city for it on Sunday. 382 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:46,360 Speaker 11: Now. 383 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 10: It is expected to inject more than three million dollars 384 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,359 Speaker 10: to our local economy. Forty percent of people who run 385 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 10: the christ Church Marathon are from outside christ Church. 386 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 11: Now. 387 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 10: Race director Chris Cox says the reason the course is 388 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 10: so popular is that it attracts runners alongside everything the 389 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 10: city has to offer. The course, for those who don't know, 390 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 10: goes around Hagley Park. It's also very flat being in 391 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 10: christ Church, so it is known as one of New 392 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 10: Zealand's fastest and flattest. He says, though the course will 393 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 10: need a bit of a tweak next year in order 394 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 10: to handle this growth, because while it needs to be 395 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 10: the same course, it has to have a few changes 396 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 10: in a few different streets in order to cope with 397 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 10: more runners. Flatter sounds easier, allegedly, I mean, I'm no runner, 398 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:30,360 Speaker 10: Ryan has you weally clear? Mostly fine today? A bit 399 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 10: of morning and evening cloud about southwesterly is turning northeast 400 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 10: and the high should be eighteen. 401 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 3: Nice. I thank you Max and Wellington Heymax. Good morning. 402 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,120 Speaker 3: Property sales delay because of limb reports. 403 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 5: Yeah, house sales in Wellington being held up by the 404 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 5: City Council's apparent growing backlog of property reports or limbs 405 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:52,439 Speaker 5: land information memorandums. The current average processing time here is 406 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 5: twenty eight working days, so effectively over a month, that's 407 00:21:56,080 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 5: almost triple apparently the legally required time frame, costing five 408 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,439 Speaker 5: hundred and sixty bucks a pop. One real estate director 409 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 5: says it's the worst delays he's seen in twenty six 410 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 5: years in Wellington. The property market here is hardly all 411 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 5: guns blazing at the moment as well. Slow property reports, 412 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:17,919 Speaker 5: of course, can course cause more anxiety, even jeopardizing potential 413 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 5: offers or sales. That's happening here. The Wellington City Council 414 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:25,400 Speaker 5: says demand is higher than it planned for an excuse 415 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 5: which doesn't seem to hold much water. It's having to 416 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,360 Speaker 5: put on more stuff, which suggests that was the real 417 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 5: problem in the first place. But it is optimistic things 418 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 5: will ease soon. 419 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:35,679 Speaker 3: It's hard enough to stell your house and we only 420 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:37,159 Speaker 3: thing at the moment is it is I thought you 421 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 3: were going to talk about the electronic festival that's on 422 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 3: this weekend. 423 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 5: Not my not my forte.

It's being restored with an aim to 439 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 12: have it open by twenty twenty eight. Now, apparently during 440 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 12: the work, the teams figured out that it would be 441 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 12: cheaper to turn two existing basements into one by just 442 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 12: you know, knocking down the walls, removing them between them. 443 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 12: Saint James Holdings director that Steve Bilby says it's a 444 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 12: great space.

At the 515 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,399 Speaker 4: same time. That was the message that Roon send the 516 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 4: quite clearly, crystal clearly to Washington and to the Oral Office. 517 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 3: Last night, Alexander Cornwall with US Reuter's senior Middle East 518 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,439 Speaker 3: correspondent in Jerusalem, Alexander, Nice to have you back on 519 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,160 Speaker 3: the show. Thanks for being with me. What about Nita Yahoo, 520 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 3: what's the what's the game plan here? Do you think 521 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 3: to try? 522 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 13: I mean, the announcement comes just, you know, a day 523 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,639 Speaker 13: after those huge strikes on Lebanon that has you know, 524 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 13: now killed more than three hundred people. We don't have 525 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 13: an official date for these talks that will take place 526 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 13: with the Lebanese now. One thing to keep in mind 527 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 13: is that Lebanon, for the past month, the Lebanese government 528 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 13: that has been pushing for direct talks with Israel and 529 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:30,880 Speaker 13: Nana who had rebuffed him this whole time. One thing 530 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:35,199 Speaker 13: also to consider is that the US Vice President yesterday 531 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,919 Speaker 13: and Budapest said that Israel had sort of decided to 532 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 13: check themselves, as the way he phrased it, after those 533 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 13: strikes in Lebanon. So we'll have to wait and see 534 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:47,120 Speaker 13: when and if those talks will happen. Iran has been 535 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 13: adamant that the ceasefire also include Lebanon, and we've also 536 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 13: seen a number of European states come out to say 537 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 13: and say Lebanon must be included in the ceasefire as well. 538 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 3: Ninnya, who's wanted for a long time the Lebanese government 539 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 3: to go after his bulloods. Is there any chance of that? Heavening? 540 00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 13: I mean, the Lebanese government and the Lebanese Armed Forces 541 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 13: were supposed to do that following a twenty twenty four 542 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 13: agreement that was essentially a ceasefire between Hesbla and Israel, 543 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 13: and the armed Forces said that they the Lebanese Armed 544 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 13: Forces said they did take over areas of the south. However, 545 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 13: you know, we did see Hesba open fire in March 546 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 13: following the attacks on Iran against Israel, so it's very 547 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:36,359 Speaker 13: unclear what capabilities they have. The Lebanese Army had been 548 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 13: withdrawing from some areas of Lebanon as the Israeli military 549 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 13: advance and continued its bombardment. So it's, you know, if 550 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 13: these talks happened, with these big ifs, it's you know, 551 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,959 Speaker 13: there's got to be some kind of mechanism here, some 552 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 13: kind of guarantee that probably has to come from outside 553 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 13: of Lebanon and outside of Israel, possibly the United States, 554 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 13: possibly the French or always keen to play a role 555 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 13: in Lebanon. 556 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 3: And as terms of why NITNYA who's now saying let's 557 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 3: talk about talks. It's pressure from the US, isn't it. 558 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 3: I was looking at poles that were polling Republican voters 559 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 3: on their support for Israel and its many wars, and 560 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 3: that has been slowly dropping through Iran. 561 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, well again, we saw these huge coordinated 562 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,719 Speaker 13: strikes by Israel yesday. These strikes now, Israel has traditionally 563 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 13: targeted areas of southern Lebanon, of southern be areas that 564 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 13: are Shia Muslim areas where is known to have a presence, 565 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 13: that are strongholds. Many of the areas that attacked, Yes, 566 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 13: they were in mixed religious areas, so Sunni, Muslim and 567 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 13: Christian areas that many Lebanese had thought were safe and 568 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 13: away from Hesbulah. And just the toll, the scale attacks 569 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 13: has really panicked many this everyday people in Lebanon. Over 570 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 13: a million people in Lebanon are displaced by have been 571 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 13: displaced by the Israeli military. Over a thousand people have 572 00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 13: been killed before yesterday's attacks, and Iran said this ceasefire 573 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 13: includes Lebanon and that there's no point having negotiations with 574 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 13: the Americans if it's not so there was there has 575 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 13: been some question here as to whether the ceasefire, the 576 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 13: American arrange seas I would even hold and if those 577 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 13: Israeli strikes us, they had jeopardized the whole truth. 578 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:22,080 Speaker 3: Appreciate your time and your analysis. Alexander Cornwell Reutter has 579 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 3: seen the Middle East correspondent in Jerusalem for US this morning. 580 00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 3: It's nine minutes away from six. 581 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 7: Ryan. 582 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,480 Speaker 3: Also, I note overnight the head of WW state owned 583 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 3: oil company, he's a sultant. He has come out and said, yeah, 584 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 3: the Strait is closed, despite what the headlines might have 585 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 3: said yesterday, and they are currently running reduced oil production 586 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 3: because there's storage capacity problems. Obviously storage is filled up 587 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 3: there and the last cargoes that got through the Strait 588 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 3: before the war are only now just arriving at their 589 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 3: final destination.

And it was the single pedal, very very 599 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 3: very well reviewed, all very smooth ride. 600 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 6: Term how much was it? 601 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 3: Good question? 602 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 6: When you say the single pedal, what do you mean, 603 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 6: like you put your foot on the regenerative regenerative so 604 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,280 Speaker 6: you can can you set the regeneration on it? 605 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 3: Is it one of those I don't know. It was 606 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 3: on and I was using it because the BAK. 607 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 6: I find that really, I find it quite fun when 608 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 6: you set regeneration. So some cars you set a regeneration. 609 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 6: Some you can do without it, so it just drifts 610 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 6: like a normal carbon generation. 611 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 3: I can turn it off, can you. 612 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, we'll wind it up all down.

It's a fun thing. 614 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 3: It takes a while to get used to though, because 615 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 3: your instinct is to slam the brake on. You don't 616 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 3: need to you do. 617 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 6: And did it have a big boot? 618 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:02,880 Speaker 10: Do? 619 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:03,239 Speaker 2: I mean? 620 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 6: I think it was a wagon. 621 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 3: I don't know. 622 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 6: If you're a big you're a big wagon. 623 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 3: This suv suv.
