Speaker 1: Live from the Export Beer Garden Studios and brought to you,
Speaker 1: as always by Export Ultra the Beer for Here. This
Speaker 1: is the Agenda Podcast for Monday, the twenty month of October.
Speaker 2: The Agenda Podcast, the home of Sporting Nonsense and clap trap,
Speaker 2: brought to you my next sport a Vulture.
Speaker 1: And the brand new studio has taken about three weeks
Speaker 1: to become absolutely ruined here. There are stains all over
Speaker 1: the bloody table.
Speaker 3: Yeah, coffee mug stains.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know what these are.
Speaker 3: I had to call out James mcconey because he leaves
Speaker 3: caps of tea everywhere.
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 3: And before you cat.
Speaker 1: With you, he's like Leehart with half drunk beers.
Speaker 3: Met half drunk beers two steps gone.
Speaker 1: But there's some sort of chocolate stains on the desk
Speaker 1: here and we can't figure out who it is because
Speaker 1: we were the last ones in here to do the podcast.
Speaker 1: No commentary over the week, which we are going to
Speaker 1: talk about later on in the podcast. But I know
Speaker 1: the Boog Show come in here over now and then
Speaker 1: and do a bit of recording.
Speaker 3: Oh they don't pre record this show to they.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I don't know if it's the show,
Speaker 1: but they're definitely in here recording.
Speaker 3: So they do their potty, they do their outro.
Speaker 1: They do something, and I reckon they fucking Jason Hoyt's
Speaker 1: got bloody chocolates. Yeah, that's written over.
Speaker 3: A little bit of controversy. This morning, I've filled in
Speaker 3: on her to keep breakfast. And we found some.
Speaker 1: Wedges for shoes.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, on Pugsley's desk, which you don't know what
Speaker 3: wedges are.
Speaker 1: It's to give you a bit of a lift.
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you're struggling vertically, and these all silicon lifts
Speaker 3: that you can put and I put them in my
Speaker 3: shoes and a mentally, it does give you a bit
Speaker 3: of a lift that work.
Speaker 1: Deep shame you can't get around like that all day.
Speaker 3: Deep shame though, knowing that I got them in And
Speaker 3: so we started talking about what's more shameful wedges or
Speaker 3: a rinse, a bad rints.
Speaker 1: Wages because you're hiding it. Wow, the rints you can't hide.
Speaker 1: I know you think you're hiding it. And by the way,
Speaker 1: there we someone listening this podcast right now. But I'm like,
Speaker 1: I just want you to know, we know, I don't
Speaker 1: know you exist. So the fact that you're taking offense
Speaker 1: to this means you're aware of it. We did say.
Speaker 3: We did talk about the rints and we said, if
Speaker 3: you think you're getting away with your rints, you're not.
Speaker 1: Ye.
Speaker 3: People are talking about you behind your back.
Speaker 1: So whatever your thing is, by the way, it could
Speaker 1: be a rinse, it could be something else, a rug,
Speaker 1: whatever it is, we all know. Yeah, but yeah, I
Speaker 1: for the longest time thought that my superpower was being
Speaker 1: able to spot a rints from a mile away. Yeah,
Speaker 1: everyone superpower. It's actually not that hard to spot. I
Speaker 1: was generally like, if it's a white guy with darker
Speaker 1: hair than me and he's laid into his fifties, suspicious, Well.
Speaker 3: It's also the eyebrows and the facial hair, facial he
Speaker 3: gives it away, massively gives it away, so you've got
Speaker 3: to just lean into it.
Speaker 1: And what else.
Speaker 3: We talked about af your other things, and Jimmy Well
Speaker 3: shocked us with a story about he is doing some
Speaker 3: terrible work in the TV ands e changing rooms. He
Speaker 3: revealed another insight one of a former TV inst employee
Speaker 3: would wear male spanks but almost like a full length
Speaker 3: spanks up to his chest and tummy in.
Speaker 1: A lot like a little rolled roasts.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and so we were like, who was it? They
Speaker 3: wouldn't tell us, and we were saying names, were like,
Speaker 3: it's not sloppy, save is it? And he's like no, no,
Speaker 3: And then we worked out as a former employee, so
Speaker 3: it eventually got it out of Camal Santa Maria.
Speaker 1: Oh right, Yeah, he's running a.
Speaker 3: Full men's spanks operation under his.
Speaker 1: Suit, right, and a sexual assault assault lawsuit as well.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I think he's contesting that that whole.
Speaker 1: So they should have sacked them for that before he
Speaker 1: ever got the chance to do anything, to be fair,
Speaker 1: that's true.
Speaker 3: That is true. So yeah, we talked about deep shameful
Speaker 3: things that mainly men up too, because I think there's
Speaker 3: as we mentioned, there's a different kind of there's a
Speaker 3: different criteria for women because they put makeup on in
Speaker 3: the morning and a lot of them die there here anyway.
Speaker 3: But they are out there, they're open about it, whereas
Speaker 3: guys are that's in the background, dying in here surreptitiously
Speaker 3: and putting lifts in their shoes. The Veneers Veneers is
Speaker 3: another one. Yeah, have you seen have you come across
Speaker 3: someone you hadn't seen for a while, and they've got veneers. No,
Speaker 3: it's the funniest thing you've ever seen. I've never seen it.
Speaker 3: It'll happen in some stage in your life. One of
Speaker 3: your mates will go off and get veneers and you'll
Speaker 3: see him and you will immediately start laughing, and it's
Speaker 3: not really the reaction they're looking for.
Speaker 1: I know someone who I've seen dudes like English dudes,
Speaker 1: particularly when I was in Dubai. There's a lot of
Speaker 1: the English dudes, and they'll have the whitest teeth that
Speaker 1: you've ever seen in your life, perfectly straight. They don't
Speaker 1: look like teeth. It's like you've got a mouth guarden
Speaker 1: or something like that. I also know a guy who
Speaker 1: I'm not going to say his name because he's told
Speaker 1: me off for mentioning him in the past. But he
Speaker 1: showed up to where he worked. They had like a
Speaker 1: site changeover. Sure, I've told the story before. It's about
Speaker 1: fifty dudes sitting in a room and they're changing over
Speaker 1: from the night shift before work, and the guy's up
Speaker 1: the front and goes Yep. If you go down the back,
Speaker 1: you'll notice that that area is blocked off. There's something wrong,
Speaker 1: something faulty. You don't go down there. And then if
Speaker 1: you look at the you fucking died you're here, mate.
Speaker 1: This guy standing in the front go no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I haven't. But he'd been using that shampoo that darkens
Speaker 1: you're here. Yeah, Ruder uses that.
Speaker 3: I used to use it until he had exactly the
Speaker 3: same scenario. Ruder the producer of the Breakfasher. He said
Speaker 3: a few years ago, when he started going funny a
Speaker 3: bit of grays, he started using the shampoo until he
Speaker 3: bumped into a friend who just went, why are you
Speaker 3: doing you're here?
Speaker 1: And he didn't do it from then on. Yeah, nahant,
Speaker 1: why not just embrace the grays? Yeah, I think most
Speaker 1: dudes with black here know that you go gray very early.
Speaker 1: I've got a lot of grays, and so you can't
Speaker 1: sort of you've either got to commit to dying it
Speaker 1: all the time. But the dye doesn't look black. It
Speaker 1: looks blue.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's fishy. I've seen a few kind of
Speaker 3: mousey brown dye jobs.
Speaker 1: They that is tougherence, That is tough because then there's
Speaker 1: the regrowth. Yeah, is this The other thing is dudes,
Speaker 1: So when women do this, they commit it's a whole thing,
Speaker 1: you know. They look after their hair quite thoroughly. A
Speaker 1: dude will just run the rints through it and then
Speaker 1: leave it for like another six months. You can't do that.
Speaker 1: Now you've got regrowth, you get the bloody half and half.
Speaker 1: We've got that fucking Billy eilish it. As a fifty
Speaker 1: year old man. All you have to say is everyone knows. Yes,
Speaker 1: everyone knows well know. We all know.
Speaker 3: We might not say it to your face, but we're
Speaker 3: saying it behind your back.
Speaker 1: I do appreciate the kind of man who will openly
Speaker 1: address it though as well. We're just like, yeah, you
Speaker 1: just ran the die through my here last night. That's fine, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's fine.
Speaker 3: I don't mind that. It's just the ones hiding it.
Speaker 1: Yeah. The most open man about dying is here that
Speaker 1: I've met. He's probably not open about it on here,
Speaker 1: but I'm going to say it anyway. Steve mccovett, he'd
Speaker 1: come in after he died his here, it's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: died the last night. He's the different one's not quite
Speaker 1: the same. I was like, I'm going to respect that.
Speaker 1: I got to respect that. If you shut up your
Speaker 1: addressing the fact that you've died, you here Stephen m.
Speaker 3: Speaking of which, he'll be tearing Barcelona a new one,
Speaker 3: wouldn't he see.
Speaker 1: He'll be I reckon he would have. I reckon he
Speaker 1: definitely would have tried to find Ben Ainsley to like
Speaker 1: shake hands and make amends. I don't think Ben Ainsley
Speaker 1: would have been up for it. Or should we start
Speaker 1: with the America's Cup then if we're actually going to
Speaker 1: talk about some sports, The America's Cup remains New Zealand's Cup,
Speaker 1: third time in a row, third consecutive. I need you already.
Speaker 3: I kind of knew this, but only four countries have
Speaker 3: ever won the America's Cup.
Speaker 1: Isn't it the oldest prize in sporting history?
Speaker 3: Australia, New Zealand, England, America?
Speaker 1: What's that now? Did America when it first? Yeah? So
Speaker 1: I don't know what. It's such a bizarre I can't so.
Speaker 1: I guess my first question is you've been saying, well,
Speaker 1: it's been going on. Does anyone care because we know
Speaker 1: it's not coming back now that we've won it, do
Speaker 1: you care? I know?
Speaker 3: And yeah they're coock teasing us as well, But of
Speaker 3: course the questions are is it coming back? You're going
Speaker 3: to race in New Zealand and Dalton's come with the
Speaker 3: well will never say never. You know, the door is
Speaker 3: always open. It's like boh shit.
Speaker 1: Sailing is just a long series of lawsuits and then
Speaker 1: every now and then a race breaks out.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's all going to do with money. We
Speaker 3: don't have the money. No, we don't want to spend
Speaker 3: the money.
Speaker 1: No, but that should be part of it. It should
Speaker 1: be built into the things like, yes, we don't have
Speaker 1: the money. Yeah, it's going to be kind of lamer
Speaker 1: than if you're in Barcelona. But if you want it
Speaker 1: somewhere else, then beat us and come and take it.
Speaker 1: Otherwise we're going to be fizzing around like Topau next year.
Speaker 3: That'd be mean, or like Wakatipu that would be cool.
Speaker 1: That would be sick. Yeah, up and down in front
Speaker 1: of Queenstown. Yeah, that would be awesome.
Speaker 3: You have to chop on them in on some sort
Speaker 3: of kind of I don't know it will train train
Speaker 3: them in, train them in. They're big units. Maybe they
Speaker 3: have to build them all in Queenstown. Queenstown's now become
Speaker 3: a city.
Speaker 1: Did you know that? I did not know that it's
Speaker 1: tipped over.
Speaker 3: Thirty thousand is that which goes from a town.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I found this out this morning. Was okay, look, if
Speaker 3: you listen to the Hardache Breakfast, yeah you get a lot.
Speaker 3: It tips you over to what is known as a city.
Speaker 1: Do you need a cathedral because that was my understanding
Speaker 1: that I think that might be in England. Okay, my
Speaker 1: understanding was there was a population quota and then you
Speaker 1: also needed a cathedral.
Speaker 3: I haven't seen many cathedrals INENI no cathedral in coeens Down. Okay,
Speaker 3: So thirty thousand, which is what makes Timurrow a city as.
Speaker 1: TMURI got thirty tomorrow is about forty almost fifty year,
Speaker 1: so it's a city too. It's a city omor not
Speaker 1: suck it. Same with Ashburton that also sucks and doesn't
Speaker 1: have a really Ashburton.
Speaker 3: But that didn't Ashburton's population explode after the quake.
Speaker 1: Did they?
Speaker 3: Maybe they did they tip over their city.
Speaker 1: I don't think it did.
Speaker 3: Speaking of which, are we going to touch on that
Speaker 3: part of the world Mid Canterbury, Yes, stumbled at the
Speaker 3: last hurdle. The swampies took them out.
Speaker 1: They did, they did. The swamp fox has took them
Speaker 1: out in the in the heartland Championship final and to
Speaker 1: that I've got to say fuck made Canterbury. And actually
Speaker 1: that was the only league of our three way that
Speaker 1: had as well. Yeah it was a spikee being against
Speaker 1: Mid Canterbury and it came in only by half a point.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I don't know America's Cup. Do we just
Speaker 1: draw a line under it and say I don't care anymore?
Speaker 3: Yeah no, because now now it's going to happen law suits.
Speaker 3: Now they'll cockta is the fact that can come back
Speaker 3: to New Zealand. But New Zealand will have to raise
Speaker 3: half a billion dollars to do it, and yeah we'll go.
Speaker 1: Nah, yeah, why would we? Yeah what I don't know.
Speaker 1: I've never understood sports a lot. Yeah, but you guys
Speaker 1: have got to help us fundrais to do it. It's like,
Speaker 1: no enough people gave a shit about your sport. You
Speaker 1: wouldn't have to fundraise. The tickets would pay for it.
Speaker 3: Sal GP is going to be a good time though.
Speaker 3: Is here end of January and Auckland and the track
Speaker 3: for that try I say track of course. The course
Speaker 3: for the course for it is pretty sick. It's between
Speaker 3: the Harbour Bridge and the Fury Terminal. So it's a tiny,
Speaker 3: tiny stretch of water. It's not very wide, so you'll
Speaker 3: be able to see it from land, yeah easily, yea.
Speaker 3: So from the tank Farm and from Bayswater, Stanley Point
Speaker 3: all across there you'll be able to watch it. But
Speaker 3: that's a tight course, man, real tight course. So that's
Speaker 3: gonna be really interesting. That's going to be obviously the
Speaker 3: the black foils and there there's Pete Burling and Blad
Speaker 3: Choke again. They got a good thing going and they
Speaker 3: flipping flopping between America's Cup and sale GP.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the right time. It does seem look a
Speaker 1: good time. I'm watching him it. Let's oh, just before
Speaker 1: we do take a quick break, Lim Lawson. We were
Speaker 1: just watching him out in the office. He finished in
Speaker 1: the Formula one and finished what ninth, Yeah, he started
Speaker 1: and I just I thought he'd started.
Speaker 3: He qualified fifteenth, but he had to take a grid
Speaker 3: penalty because Daniel Ricardo left a turn on the seat
Speaker 3: before and when he left and retarda and he he
Speaker 3: was nineteenth on the grid and he finished ninth.
Speaker 1: Oh, he got in the points.
Speaker 3: That's I think that's the biggest that would have been
Speaker 3: the biggest goal what's the best case scenario in this
Speaker 3: first race, get some points.
Speaker 1: On the whole thing?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, no, not not with no way. That was
Speaker 3: miles behind the Ferraris.
Speaker 1: But shouldn't I mean this is probably a bigger issue
Speaker 1: with motor games in general. Shouldn't anyone be able to
Speaker 1: win any race?
Speaker 3: Nah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay maybe, I just.
Speaker 3: Although although between the McLaren's, Ferraris and Red Bull, they
Speaker 3: all those can win race. All those teams can win races,
Speaker 3: but the rest of them, something drastic has to happen
Speaker 3: in the race.
Speaker 1: It's another rich guy sport. It's like there are rules
Speaker 1: that prevent it being an equal opportunity for everyone, and
Speaker 1: it's just whoever's got the most money then will figure
Speaker 1: out who's going to win out of.
Speaker 3: Those days all the smartest engineers, Yeah, who command the
Speaker 3: highest paychecks. Is all right, Liam Lawson, he's won some points. Yes,
Speaker 3: he is in a full time seat. I say that
Speaker 3: in the office.
Speaker 1: Now, what's going to happen is this is what we
Speaker 1: do with as New Zealanders. If he doesn't go on
Speaker 1: to become the greatest race card driver of all time,
Speaker 1: we're going to say he's a failure. Now because he's
Speaker 1: had early success and then we turn around and go
Speaker 1: Jesz really shipped the bed ever since the ended.
Speaker 3: Great stuff and he beat his team Sonoda, So that's
Speaker 3: always good. And I think he may have even just
Speaker 3: come behind Cagio pitti Is and the other Red Ball.
Speaker 3: He's rumored to take his seat full time next year
Speaker 3: and race alongside the strap On.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So they so that teammates essentially just in the
Speaker 1: fact that they raced for the same team, but they
Speaker 1: don't work together.
Speaker 3: No, got you got Red Bull Racing, which is the
Speaker 3: premier team with Vis strap On and pet Is, and
Speaker 3: then you've got what's it called kind of other Way
Speaker 3: Racing Bulls, which is the feeder team still owned by
Speaker 3: Red Bull. Right, it's the kind of feeder team into
Speaker 3: the main team.
Speaker 1: But those two cars don't work together.
Speaker 3: That are in Okay No, No, they're different cars, different
Speaker 3: engineering teams, different pit teams, everything, but it's just owned
Speaker 3: by the same parent company. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was wondering why he would take his mate out anyway. Okay,
Speaker 1: so he's scored some points.
Speaker 3: Oh he started a fight too, which was good with
Speaker 3: Fernando Alonso. So Fernando Alonso is like the boomer of
Speaker 3: the of the grid, the oldest dude there, and he's
Speaker 3: just grumpy airs And he has accused Liam Lawson of
Speaker 3: driving dangerously when they were racing for fourteenth and fifteenth
Speaker 3: in the sprint race, and he said afterwards, he said,
Speaker 3: I'll get him back, and he did. He pulled in
Speaker 3: front of him during his flying left slowed him down.
Speaker 3: Fernando Alonso pulled in front of Lin Lawson, Liam Lawson
Speaker 3: and Liam Lawson's.
Speaker 1: That, yeah, get over.
Speaker 3: It's racing. Yeah, this is what we do. Yeah, I
Speaker 3: ain't think the whole point of it. I don't think
Speaker 3: you're a Formula one driver to to have Fernando Alonso. Yell,
Speaker 3: let you a grumpy old man. Massive weekend the sport.
Speaker 3: There's still so much to get through. Let's take a
Speaker 3: quick break. We haven't even touched on the cricket, so
Speaker 3: we'll take quick break. We'll come back and talk cricket.
Speaker 1: Also the White Ferns who claimed their maiden T twenty
Speaker 1: World Cup title with they thirty two run victory over
Speaker 1: South Africa and Dubai this morning. Of course they came
Speaker 1: into the tournament with on a ten nail slide. Yeah,
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, and I likened it a
Speaker 1: little bit to Stephen Bradbury last last week where all
Speaker 1: of the other ice skaters had fallen over and all
Speaker 1: of a sudden we were coming through. It wasn't quite
Speaker 1: like that, but it was the all of the teams
Speaker 1: that had tipped us up. Yes, we're all of a
Speaker 1: sudden gone. Yeah, And it changed the complexion of the
Speaker 1: whole competition. And so overnight last night at about what
Speaker 1: two three in.
Speaker 3: The morning, yep, wrapped up at six thirty.
Speaker 1: Wrapped up at six six thirty. This morning, we won
Speaker 1: the bloody World Cup.
Speaker 3: Yeah, world champions, World fucking world champions, and convincingly too,
Speaker 3: convincing over South Africa. I mean they were paying twenty
Speaker 3: ones before the tournament, and someone who was this morning
Speaker 3: said they got on them at twenty one's pre tournament
Speaker 3: and they got on them at eights before the knockouts, yeah,
Speaker 3: and had a great weekend.
Speaker 1: So I think we on the ACC got on them
Speaker 1: at about eights as well, did we. Yeah, there was
Speaker 1: something in there that filled the kiddy up.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Oh no, that was that was top scoring revenge
Speaker 3: or top scoring the first innings.
Speaker 1: Oh, we got that one as well that one.
Speaker 3: Too, but yeah, great they were Hopefully they're parting their
Speaker 3: asses off over there. Do by get out to the
Speaker 3: parm Atlantis, get on the rooftop bar, yeah, and tear
Speaker 3: Dubai a new one because they're going to come home
Speaker 3: where no one saw this coming. No, no one saw
Speaker 3: this coming.
Speaker 1: And so good on them.
Speaker 3: They've proved all the doubt as us included when they
Speaker 3: came into this World Cup with like you were saying,
Speaker 3: it's ten run shit.
Speaker 1: Ten slide. Yeah. Then they won three games in the
Speaker 1: pool matches and then haven't dropped on since. Ye, So
Speaker 1: powerful stuff from them. And then also over the weekend,
Speaker 1: the Black Caps beat India in India. I think is
Speaker 1: it the third time ever?
Speaker 3: Yes, first time about thirty odd years yeah, last one
Speaker 3: was in that kind of eighties.
Speaker 1: So third time we've ever been in them in India.
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, yep. And I must admit I was nervous.
Speaker 3: I was scratching around when India got one hundred and
Speaker 3: ten run lead. Yeah, I was like, oh shit, but
Speaker 3: didn't need to worry.
Speaker 1: They did not need to worry.
Speaker 3: Between well, Young and Revendra came home won by eight wickets,
Speaker 3: and I must admit looking at that Indian team potentially
Speaker 3: the most out of shape international sports team on the planet.
Speaker 3: It's something I'm Kate Moss, but like just have some
Speaker 3: self respect. I don't know. And they played that game
Speaker 3: so recklessly in that first innings. Even in the second
Speaker 3: innings there were some moments where I was like, what's
Speaker 3: going on here? So I it'd be interested to see
Speaker 3: how they approach the second tiers Indians, because if they
Speaker 3: get tipped up again or don't perform, the questions are
Speaker 3: going to be asked around their attitude.
Speaker 1: Well, they'll be burning ifs in the street.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I mean that the next pitch is going
Speaker 3: to be turning square, so that's going to be Mauldi terrifying.
Speaker 1: But whoever prepared that last pitch will go missing?
Speaker 3: Correct?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Family, Yeah, Well I don think that all the rain
Speaker 3: didn't help because it just kept the.
Speaker 1: Juice in the wicket.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but a great performance from Ravender, great for betting
Speaker 3: performance from Tim Southey and nowhere brought us home as well.
Speaker 1: It was a shit. It was a good weekend. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was a powerful weekend of sport. I just want
Speaker 1: to bring this to your attention. At six forty one,
Speaker 1: PM last night someone brought a black Caps Supporters Support
Speaker 1: Group T shirt. Now at that point we would have
Speaker 1: been less than fifty runs required to win.
Speaker 3: People, I don't I don't blame this person. I was
Speaker 3: going through the same emotions because when Latham got Sawn
Speaker 3: off for a duck and we were one down without
Speaker 3: scoring a run, I.
Speaker 1: Was like, oh shit, any game where any match where
Speaker 1: there's a team out for less than one hundred and
Speaker 1: one of the innings, yes, it's always hovering over the
Speaker 1: rest of it, even though we both scored four hundred
Speaker 1: in the next two innings. And look if this.
Speaker 3: Helped that, this purchase of this Black Cap support of
Speaker 3: Support Group T shirt helped get them over the line
Speaker 3: in terms of managing their nerves and emotions, then it's
Speaker 3: job done for us. Yeah, And I think to celebrate
Speaker 3: it's got a note from Joe Jury, who's in charge
Speaker 3: of the a SEC shop. He has got half priced
Speaker 3: Steady of the Ship hats. Oh until they run out
Speaker 3: in a celebration of this cricketing weekend. So half price
Speaker 3: Steady of the Ship Hats. Just use the code word
Speaker 3: Kiwi Kiwi on checkout and you will get fifty percent
Speaker 3: off steady of the ship hats until we run out,
Speaker 3: So get onto that if you want to get your
Speaker 3: hats for the summer.
Speaker 1: I was wondering what he was doing with all those
Speaker 1: hats and the football. We went to the football over
Speaker 1: the weekend at Auckland f C. On Saturday night. It
Speaker 1: was actually at about five o'clock, so the sun was
Speaker 1: up for that. I sat down in the south stand
Speaker 1: with all of the port was sort of just in
Speaker 1: front of me. There they were going bloody hard. It
Speaker 1: was a great experience, like it was interesting to me
Speaker 1: that the team hadn't existed until that game. And a
Speaker 1: lot of people on social media calling us bandwagon fans
Speaker 1: for being it was the first ever game. Everyone's a
Speaker 1: fucking bandwagon fan.
Speaker 3: I think they meant bandwagon to the game of football potentially,
Speaker 3: Mane And to those people, I would say, I'm not
Speaker 3: a fan of the game of football. I don't enjoy
Speaker 3: the sport at all, but I'll jump I just want
Speaker 3: to see what it's all about. And this is why,
Speaker 3: again I've been saying this the whole time about soccer.
Speaker 1: They're the worst fans. They're the worst of us for
Speaker 1: this exact reason. We're not fans of soccer. We went along.
Speaker 1: We want to be a game, to try and get
Speaker 1: involved in people. No fucking fans, Well no, I never
Speaker 1: come again. I want to be a fan, so do I.
Speaker 1: And God they were going hard. There's that crew with
Speaker 1: all the flags and that the port and before the
Speaker 1: game they were standing in the concourse just next to
Speaker 1: Fritzswenas there and jumping up and down and singing and
Speaker 1: shouting their head all their chance. Where they practiced those
Speaker 1: I don't know, like do they did? They put a
Speaker 1: hymn sheet up online.
Speaker 3: They all met at Tyler Street Sports bar in town,
Speaker 3: I think right, But I think they've got little little
Speaker 3: Facebook community group that they share stuff on practice. They
Speaker 3: bought something and but a bit a bit of controversy
Speaker 3: coming out of the back of it though, because they
Speaker 3: had a traditional Marty welcome the warriors, but no one
Speaker 3: told the players how to react to it. And the
Speaker 3: players came out and they faced the stand and they
Speaker 3: had their backs to the.
Speaker 1: Apparently cause a bit of sound might in the stands.
Speaker 3: What do you mean, what's the controversy you wear? You
Speaker 3: got a couple of funck South Canterbury's, which was good. Yeah,
Speaker 3: a couple of sprays from the guys walking past, which
Speaker 3: I personally enjoyed everywhere I.
Speaker 1: Go, and that's with my message. She's like, do you know,
Speaker 1: was like no, and they just yelled fuck South Canterbury.
Speaker 1: That's a long, long story. More people in the comments
Speaker 1: been like, what's all like, tagging me, like, what's going on?
Speaker 1: Why is everyone? Why have you turned on South Canerbery's
Speaker 1: I haven't. I've somehow become the face of a franchise
Speaker 1: that didn't lose for five years and so yeah, people
Speaker 1: just screaming at me. But it was good. I thought,
Speaker 1: a couple of work ons, a couple of work ons
Speaker 1: if I could. For Auckland f C's next game, they
Speaker 1: tried this horn. Oh my god, that was so bad.
Speaker 1: It didn't work. Poor Finn can Eat Mesh from The
Speaker 1: Hardacky Breakfast Show. He was the ground announcer and he
Speaker 1: he had to go over and blow the horn that
Speaker 1: was gonna call the guys into the pitch, and when
Speaker 1: he blow it, it just didn't work. It was a
Speaker 1: bit of a well what it was.
Speaker 3: It was a traditional air assault airhorn that he was
Speaker 3: putting into another larger horn.
Speaker 1: It was just never gonna work.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I think that that has definitely work on.
Speaker 3: They've got Sydney FC this weekend back at go hard,
Speaker 3: so that's definitely a work on.
Speaker 1: And then the other thing I was going to say
Speaker 1: is when there was a bit of a hocker and
Speaker 1: a cardhonger calling everyone into the stadium. When that was
Speaker 1: going on, and the guys were chanting in the stands
Speaker 1: at the same time, and then the players were out
Speaker 1: on the pitch as well, it was like ghost bumps.
Speaker 1: It was fucking awesome. Been the fog horn thing. And
Speaker 1: just have those guys calling the port into the stand
Speaker 1: so have them doing the cart hung out on the field.
Speaker 1: Then you got these guys coming over the hill of
Speaker 1: that chanting. Then the players come out of the tunnel. Yeah,
Speaker 1: go at all angles. Yeah, that would be That would
Speaker 1: be sick. And another couple of points of feedback. I
Speaker 1: know that painting your face is a big part of
Speaker 1: football culture and football fandom. Unfortunately half of the Auckland
Speaker 1: FC colors is black, the blue and black. There was
Speaker 1: for my liking too much black face.
Speaker 4: Well the blue was too dark, the blue was too dark,
Speaker 4: the blue was finding then turned to the society, You're
Speaker 4: like oh, oh shit, and I reckon I would have
Speaker 4: saw probably almost double digits black face.
Speaker 3: So that was oh, look, these are all these are
Speaker 3: all very sensible work on for this weekend. I went
Speaker 3: up into the port and I got I think I
Speaker 3: scaled about three beers. I got yelled you know the rules,
Speaker 3: and a beard chucked in my hand. So that was good.
Speaker 1: That was a good introduction.
Speaker 3: And I also got in a bit of trouble for
Speaker 3: what looked like me buying pals for underage kids.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and look a lot like you buying pals. Yeah,
Speaker 1: would you describe what happened? I look, it was just
Speaker 1: for theater. I took that pals off those kids immediately
Speaker 1: after we filmed it, So no ten year old's drunk
Speaker 1: pals just throwing it out there. Great, and it would
Speaker 1: have never happened if it was export ter as well. Correct.
Speaker 1: Final final piece of feed back fleers great powerful. They
Speaker 1: were flips. There were about three or four flips.
Speaker 3: I don't think the fliers are they like smoke bombs.
Speaker 3: Isn't it a flip? Na, it's not a The proper
Speaker 3: flers are the ones that burn it like a thousand degrees,
Speaker 3: you know. Yeah, they were just they were quite clever actually,
Speaker 3: because they were very small, quite effective for they were
Speaker 3: just like little smoke, very effective smoke bombs.
Speaker 1: The probably first first issue with it the security guards
Speaker 1: had no idea how to deal with them, because one
Speaker 1: rolled down in front of a security and he looked
Speaker 1: at his like like, there's that explode?
Speaker 3: Is that a firework? What there?
Speaker 1: You know how they've got the buckets overseas to chuck
Speaker 1: the fliers in, They don't have any of that, so
Speaker 1: they don't really know what to do with. The second
Speaker 1: thing is as soon as one popped off, Lauren, who
Speaker 1: works out in the office with us, she goes, it's
Speaker 1: a boy, And then I realized a blue flear it
Speaker 1: looks like a gender reveal. I think we need to
Speaker 1: lean into that and just go full gender reveal every
Speaker 1: week and have signs it's a boy. When we let
Speaker 1: the flair go Auckland, it's a boy. I reckon that'll
Speaker 1: be a go. I never did get into the corporate box.
Speaker 1: I was gonna let off the first ever corporate flair,
Speaker 1: but I didn't see one there, so it's still it's
Speaker 1: the line on the world's first ever corporate flare.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and look and not to be out shown. The
Speaker 3: Phoenix a scrambled a draw in their opening match as well.
Speaker 3: Down there in Wellington went all, yeah, you know, we're
Speaker 3: copying a little bit of heat from Phoenix fans. But hey,
Speaker 3: look this is a shiny new thing that we want
Speaker 3: to play with that's up in Auckland. Let us play
Speaker 3: with it for a little bit and bring on the
Speaker 3: derby in two weeks.
Speaker 1: Times. Also, we can be bought, yes, like one hundred percent.
Speaker 1: We we're not above selling out correct, and so reach
Speaker 1: out Wellington Phoenix. We've been paid nothing from Auckland FC,
Speaker 1: so you know, twenty bucks.
Speaker 3: I didn't get ship by any merch. Do you buy
Speaker 3: any merch?
Speaker 1: No, the merch cues were massive. The merchant is quite cool.
Speaker 3: They have they had done so well to get that
Speaker 3: much merch out before this game.
Speaker 1: Yeah, everyone was kidded up. Yeah yeah, people are flags
Speaker 1: and shit anyway. Yes, we can one hundred percent be
Speaker 1: bought by any football franchise anywhere. But yeah, Aukland. You
Speaker 1: see that a flyover? Was that a halftime? No, that
Speaker 1: was before the game. Yes. Uh. And the last thing
Speaker 1: was I was sitting up in the south stand there
Speaker 1: were these punishing kids who were running around or jacked
Speaker 1: up on candy floss and whatnot. And they were desperately
Speaker 1: trying to start a Mexican wave. But the problem they
Speaker 1: dealt with was the port splits the South stand straight
Speaker 1: up the middle, and they were all in their own world,
Speaker 1: those port thoughts. They stand the whole time, singing and chanting,
Speaker 1: waving their flags. It's a barrier for the Mexican Wall.
Speaker 1: A Mexican wave cannot get through the port because they're
Speaker 1: not look at.
Speaker 3: They're like Donald Trump, Yeah they are. They built the
Speaker 3: wall to stop in the Mexicans.
Speaker 1: They have and it's super effective. None of them are
Speaker 1: getting through. Maybe that's what they should do in America.
Speaker 3: They the port a full line of football fans, Yeah,
Speaker 3: singing and chaman.
Speaker 1: I reckon it a work, but thoroughly enjoyed it. And
Speaker 1: the other thing is it's going to be going throughout summer,
Speaker 1: so Mount Smart Stadium in the summer's just going to
Speaker 1: be delightful and the beautiful summer sunshine out there. All right,
Speaker 1: let's take one more quick break and when we come back,
Speaker 1: yours please.
Speaker 2: Yours please, Brought you by Leader Home of the.
Speaker 1: LA First Caller here actually sent that they ran out
Speaker 1: of time, so they've sent two back to back, so
Speaker 1: I reckon we'll play them back to back, so call
Speaker 1: it yours please.
Speaker 5: Hey fellas and a missage. About a month ago I
Speaker 5: talked to about the great divorce of New Zealand football
Speaker 5: and unfortunately you guys picked Auckland FC. And you haven't
Speaker 5: just picked them, You've gotten to bed with them. You've
Speaker 5: took an alley looms Coke mooney and you're up in
Speaker 5: the box disgrace. Anyway, I just want to know, are
Speaker 5: there any ACC members that are Phoenix fans? Do we
Speaker 5: at least get Lee Baker? And will you show face
Speaker 5: at the cake tin on November second, because we will
Speaker 5: be there. We're petted off and another thing and a divorce.
Speaker 5: Who gets hurt? It's the children? And who are the
Speaker 5: children in the scenario. It's of course the mainland meathead
Speaker 5: rugby wounders. And they don't want to hear.
Speaker 6: This fucking soccer football chat. They're fucking pissed off, they
Speaker 6: don't care a fuck. They're fucking on their traptors. They
Speaker 6: don't want to hear it. And I would just like
Speaker 6: to extend an olive branch to the mainland, meetad Rugby Wounders.
Speaker 6: Your Phoenix fans, unless you're from South Canterbury, you can
Speaker 6: get fucked.
Speaker 1: Fu Yep, good stuff.
Speaker 3: Firstly, didn't accept any money from Ali Williams. Weren't in
Speaker 3: a box.
Speaker 1: Also didn't turn down anybody would happily except absolutelys weren't offered.
Speaker 3: I look, I mean we are in bed, we had
Speaker 3: a good time, we share the crap out of each
Speaker 3: other on Saturday and I'll go back again on Saturday.
Speaker 3: So unless the Phoenix can offer up something a bit
Speaker 3: funkier in the bedroom, yeah, I'm sticking with Auckland f C.
Speaker 1: That's right now. The Phoenix do take their shirts off
Speaker 1: at least whereas Auckland f C don't.
Speaker 3: Although I did see a few of them do it.
Speaker 3: Really I saw in that second goal some few of
Speaker 3: them took their tops off and I think that was
Speaker 3: more of a finger to Phoenix fans.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, to wind them up.
Speaker 3: And as you get to tell by that message, it's
Speaker 3: fucking work.
Speaker 1: It's worked. It's worked. It's an organic rivalry straight off
Speaker 1: the bat as well, which is great.
Speaker 3: Ali Williams said something interesting in the day. I say,
Speaker 3: what's going to happen with the derby, Like, who I mean,
Speaker 3: is it Auckland v New Zealand, Auckland v Wall goes mate,
Speaker 3: it's New Zealand versus Wellington. It's like they suck all
Speaker 3: our money dry down the air. They're taking all our Texas.
Speaker 3: They just spend it on lattes and craft bet the
Speaker 3: whole country and ne scip behind us when we go
Speaker 3: down there, and I was like, Okay, good luck with that.
Speaker 1: I yeah, I feel like that's the perception of Auckland
Speaker 1: to the rest of the count trick. I don't think
Speaker 1: that's how people think of Wellington.
Speaker 3: I don't think we need the rest of the country
Speaker 3: in Auckland. They don't need it. So it'll be interesting
Speaker 3: two weeks time that derby down and Welly. It's going
Speaker 3: to be a cracker. Lee Baker must be a soccer fan, right,
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, To answer that question, Paul Ford. Paul Ford
Speaker 3: is a die hard Phoenix fan. He lives in Wellington.
Speaker 3: He goes to all the games. Lee Baker, maybe he
Speaker 3: looks like a strikes me as the kind of guy
Speaker 3: be a football bat. He is a true blue Orlander.
Speaker 3: There's nothing more. He drives a Tesla.
Speaker 1: He owns a.
Speaker 3: House in Auckland, but he now lives in christ Church.
Speaker 3: He's not going to be a next tent.
Speaker 1: But you got put forward. D's all right, another caller here,
Speaker 1: You're okay.
Speaker 7: I'm great to see it. The Sea game on Saturday,
Speaker 7: good work for you, fellas. Yeah, just rewatched the replay
Speaker 7: this Sunday morning. The game had everything except for one thing.
Speaker 7: I was missing that one thing. No, you promised a flare.
Speaker 7: There was no fucking flea in mate, don't make false
Speaker 7: promises and get my hopes up like that. No, wonder
Speaker 7: if Fox South Canneburgh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well hard to get your hands on a flair.
Speaker 1: And what I thought was the fler turns out is not.
Speaker 1: It's just a smoke bomb. So yeah, someone needs to
Speaker 1: actually anyways, Paty.
Speaker 3: Can get fleers is from marine stores.
Speaker 2: Yea.
Speaker 1: I was going to say where would you get a flair.
Speaker 3: And they usually read because, yeah, a blue flear.
Speaker 1: Particularly if you're out at sea, it's probably not going
Speaker 1: to be too helpful. No, that's the thing I need
Speaker 1: to I need to start canvassing shops around, particularly as
Speaker 1: we come into guy fawks and be like, hey, I'm
Speaker 1: having a gender reveal it's a boy. Yeah, can you
Speaker 1: get me what's the biggest blue flea you got? And
Speaker 1: then I'll bring it in the next weekend again. If
Speaker 1: I can get into a corporate box, I will let
Speaker 1: off the world's first corporate flair and probably the world's
Speaker 1: last world world's only ever corporate flare, and I'll never
Speaker 1: be allowed to back it out smart again. But yeah, sorry,
Speaker 1: I did let you down there, and I will be better.

Speaker 8: Happy Monday, my birthday over the weekends, and receives the
Speaker 8: lovely acinek great great gift for a lifelime black hair

Speaker 8: day when you head to sink in your bloody radio
Speaker 8: to the TV, how do we giggle at the g
Speaker 8: lane penis In the fact, my kid's favorite page was
Speaker 8: when I think.
Speaker 1: He got censored there then to him, I got I
Speaker 1: don't know.
Speaker 3: The favorite page was when your ass. It's probably that
Speaker 3: picture right at the end where there's a picture at
Speaker 3: the end of met he's putting a frozen popping candy
Speaker 3: frozen banana up my bum. Yeah, which was a client
Speaker 3: It was a client promo gone wrong.

Speaker 3: fun with it. You know whatever, man, whatever you guys
Speaker 3: want to do. So I dropped my pants and he
Speaker 3: pretended to it and set it into my butt and
Speaker 3: then we put that out and they're like, not that, Yeah.
Speaker 1: Not that. This is the thing where that's one of
Speaker 1: the most bizarre, Like everyone wants to advertise with the
Speaker 1: ACC until they get it. Everyone wants the ACC until
Speaker 1: they get it, and then it's just disaster. We we're
Speaker 1: talking about client sponsorships. There was a pizza place that
Speaker 1: was sponsoring us one time and they sent us some
Speaker 1: pizzas and they wanted some pizzas delivered to Hosking, remember this.
Speaker 1: So they dropped them off in the morning and they
Speaker 1: were delivered to me. So I was like, yep, sweet,
Speaker 1: here's all these pizzas. I didn't know about the hosting
Speaker 1: part of it, and the delivery guy didn't either. He
Speaker 1: didn't tell me anything. So I we just tuck in
Speaker 1: and eat all these pizzas. Then I get a phone call.
Speaker 1: Did Hosking get his pizzas. I was like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: did you send them to them? No, they were got
Speaker 1: said to you. They were supposed to go to Hosky.
Speaker 1: I was like, well you didn't tell me. Oh no,
Speaker 1: What's I was like, is Mike Hosking a fucking eight
Speaker 1: in the morning is going to eat a pizza?
Speaker 3: So if you could even get it into his studio,
Speaker 3: can you imagine him in his like Maserati with a pizza.
Speaker 1: Yeah happened. Absolutely not. They didn't.
Speaker 3: They break into tears and they start crying.
Speaker 1: And the and the worst part was I'm still quite
Speaker 1: new into the business. And I went to text one
Speaker 1: of my mates here at work and because he was like,
Speaker 1: oh do you do we no need to do this
Speaker 1: thing today. It's Friday afternoon, And I said, Madam at
Speaker 1: the pub, we'll deal with it on Monday. But I
Speaker 1: actually sent that to the sales rep and looked after
Speaker 1: the pizza company who was beside himself that asking didn't
Speaker 1: get his pizza, and mate at the pub, we'll sort
Speaker 1: this out on Monday. And so I've got a tearful
Speaker 1: call on monday. Man. Anyway, it's good. Hey, we've forgot one.

Speaker 9: key We thanks g Lane and yeah fuck some dudes, so.
Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you. He's saying that you reverse cursed.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, Caps, Like, I mean, my pleasure. I copped

Speaker 3: sat here this time last week actually and said, India,
Speaker 3: you're paying two thirty for the wind Yeah, double your money.
Speaker 3: Black Caps are paying fifteen dollars. I think I was like,
Speaker 3: stay away from that.
Speaker 1: Withdrawing a term deposits a siphon off some of the mortgage.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I've absolutely shaped the bead on that one.
Speaker 1: But reverse curse, reverse curse.

Speaker 3: today about that result?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 1: Wow, that guy that put three hundred bucks on it?

Speaker 1: but no, it's powerful stuff, all right. We didn't even
Speaker 1: talk about the I mean said before, there's so much
Speaker 1: we didn't talk about. We'll talk about the NPC tomorrow.
Speaker 1: We may even see and I don't know if he's
Speaker 1: aware of what seems to be a bit of a
Speaker 1: curse on this podcast, but we may even say if
Speaker 1: we can get Brad Shields back on, every person that's
Speaker 1: come onto this podcast has gone on to lose that week. Yes,
Speaker 1: so he may not want to, but I can't imagine
Speaker 1: he's listening to this podcast very closely, So I reckon
Speaker 1: he might.
