The US and the UK are leading the 20 00:01:34,613 --> 00:01:38,573 Speaker 2: way with legislative changes on this New Zealand law, lagging 21 00:01:38,773 --> 00:01:43,253 Speaker 2: well behind ACDMP Laura McClure has prepared a bill to 22 00:01:43,333 --> 00:01:47,093 Speaker 2: restrict the generation and sharing of sexually explicit deep fakes. 23 00:01:47,093 --> 00:01:50,213 Speaker 2: So recently she announced the deep Fake Digital Harm and 24 00:01:50,293 --> 00:01:55,093 Speaker 2: Expectation Bill, expands existing legislation around revenge porn and intimate 25 00:01:55,333 --> 00:01:59,013 Speaker 2: recordings and ensures that those who produce or share deep 26 00:01:59,053 --> 00:02:03,213 Speaker 2: fakes without consent faced criminal accountability, and victims have clear 27 00:02:03,293 --> 00:02:08,613 Speaker 2: pathways to seek redress and removal of harmful content. This 28 00:02:08,933 --> 00:02:11,773 Speaker 2: is a common sense move in a tech area which 29 00:02:12,093 --> 00:02:15,373 Speaker 2: is so fast moving that we're always playing catch up. 30 00:02:15,973 --> 00:02:19,333 Speaker 2: Once upon a time, we warned our children about nude pics. 31 00:02:19,733 --> 00:02:22,413 Speaker 2: When it became apparent some just couldn't help themselves. The 32 00:02:22,453 --> 00:02:25,253 Speaker 2: recommended advice became that if they were going to send picks, 33 00:02:25,293 --> 00:02:30,093 Speaker 2: they should avoid showing identifiable features, you know, like their faces. 34 00:02:30,733 --> 00:02:34,933 Speaker 2: The imagery that technology can now create in mere minutes 35 00:02:35,333 --> 00:02:40,093 Speaker 2: far exceeds the considerable peril posed by the consented nude 36 00:02:40,133 --> 00:02:44,733 Speaker 2: pic key we born. Bloomberg journalist Olivia Carvell has dedicated 37 00:02:44,773 --> 00:02:47,733 Speaker 2: her career to unearthing the dark side of the tech 38 00:02:48,093 --> 00:02:51,133 Speaker 2: of tech and the Internet, and in her recent podcast, 39 00:02:51,253 --> 00:02:54,613 Speaker 2: Levettown focuses on the rise of deep fake pornography and 40 00:02:54,653 --> 00:02:57,613 Speaker 2: the battle to stop it. In the podcast, she tells 41 00:02:57,613 --> 00:03:00,533 Speaker 2: a story of how photographs of young women were doctored 42 00:03:00,653 --> 00:03:03,293 Speaker 2: without their consent, then they were shared on a website 43 00:03:03,333 --> 00:03:05,573 Speaker 2: where men were encouraged to discuss what they would like 44 00:03:05,613 --> 00:03:07,853 Speaker 2: to do to these women. I know it's all a 45 00:03:07,853 --> 00:03:10,413 Speaker 2: bit much for a Sunday morning, but it is a 46 00:03:10,453 --> 00:03:13,733 Speaker 2: fascinating podcast worth listening to, and even though it is 47 00:03:13,773 --> 00:03:16,373 Speaker 2: a New York story, it has a crazy New Zealand 48 00:03:16,373 --> 00:03:20,373 Speaker 2: twist to it. The point is, though the harm and 49 00:03:20,453 --> 00:03:24,413 Speaker 2: trauma that comes from sexualized AI deep fakes is real 50 00:03:24,733 --> 00:03:28,373 Speaker 2: and impactful, and victims must have legal grounds to do 51 00:03:28,453 --> 00:03:32,853 Speaker 2: something about it, but it's also about public clarity and 52 00:03:32,973 --> 00:03:37,173 Speaker 2: drawing a strong line under what's not acceptable. It's thought 53 00:03:37,253 --> 00:03:40,093 Speaker 2: ninety to ninety five percent of online deep fake videos 54 00:03:40,213 --> 00:03:43,973 Speaker 2: are non consensual pornography, and around ninety percent of them 55 00:03:44,213 --> 00:03:48,213 Speaker 2: feature women. But Claire's bill is a member's bill at 56 00:03:48,213 --> 00:03:50,813 Speaker 2: this stage, which she has written to the Minister of 57 00:03:51,013 --> 00:03:54,853 Speaker 2: Justice urging that the bill is adopted as a government bill, 58 00:03:55,173 --> 00:03:57,453 Speaker 2: and I hope they take up her offer. 59 00:03:59,013 --> 00:04:01,493 Speaker 3: Franchise girl, so. 60 00:04:01,533 --> 00:04:03,773 Speaker 2: I'm keen to hear your thoughts. You're most welcome to 61 00:04:03,813 --> 00:04:05,973 Speaker 2: text on ninety two ninety two. But look the way 62 00:04:06,013 --> 00:04:09,573 Speaker 2: I see it, nothing good comes out of people making 63 00:04:09,653 --> 00:04:13,253 Speaker 2: sexualized deep fakes of a person without their consent and 64 00:04:13,413 --> 00:04:18,933 Speaker 2: using them for revenge, humiliation, bullying, six tortion, or God 65 00:04:18,973 --> 00:04:22,573 Speaker 2: forbid fun. So flet me a text ninety two ninety two. 66 00:04:22,973 --> 00:04:25,613 Speaker 2: I am not the only one applauding ACT. This morning, 67 00:04:25,853 --> 00:04:28,293 Speaker 2: Kevin Milne was up next to talk about having a 68 00:04:28,373 --> 00:04:32,653 Speaker 2: tipple with your haircut. It's eleven past nine. 69 00:04:33,013 --> 00:04:36,373 Speaker 3: No better way to kick off your weekend than with Francesco. 70 00:04:36,813 --> 00:04:40,733 Speaker 1: Saturday Mornings with Francesca Rudgin in for Jacktaime and Beep 71 00:04:40,773 --> 00:04:44,013 Speaker 1: Pure Policy Supplements for Essential Energy News talk. 72 00:04:43,893 --> 00:04:47,573 Speaker 2: The kicking us off this morning, we have got Kevin 73 00:04:47,613 --> 00:04:48,773 Speaker 2: mil Good morning, Kevin. 74 00:04:49,933 --> 00:04:54,173 Speaker 4: It's so finally Francisca. I think the audience probably knows 75 00:04:54,213 --> 00:04:58,173 Speaker 4: that we're not both huge supports of ACT, but here 76 00:04:58,213 --> 00:05:02,533 Speaker 4: we are both congratulating ACT on some of the things 77 00:05:02,573 --> 00:05:03,613 Speaker 4: that we are doing well. 78 00:05:03,653 --> 00:05:05,853 Speaker 2: And I started off but heavy, So you're gonna lighten 79 00:05:05,933 --> 00:05:09,493 Speaker 2: us up with the You've got some kind words for 80 00:05:09,573 --> 00:05:10,253 Speaker 2: David Seymour. 81 00:05:11,013 --> 00:05:11,253 Speaker 5: Yeah. 82 00:05:11,453 --> 00:05:13,613 Speaker 4: The one thing I think David Seama was good at 83 00:05:13,893 --> 00:05:18,053 Speaker 4: is identifying silliness and rules and regulations. I remember back 84 00:05:18,093 --> 00:05:20,893 Speaker 4: in the nineteen eighties, or it might have been the nineties, 85 00:05:21,413 --> 00:05:24,573 Speaker 4: doing a fairgo story about a small hair salon in 86 00:05:24,613 --> 00:05:29,573 Speaker 4: the waiter Rapper. The owner, the hairstylist herself, had received 87 00:05:29,613 --> 00:05:33,253 Speaker 4: a warning. She hadn't realized that it was a breach of 88 00:05:33,253 --> 00:05:36,693 Speaker 4: the health regulations to offer a glass of wine no 89 00:05:36,973 --> 00:05:40,893 Speaker 4: charge on a hot wire wrapper afternoon, But yes it was. 90 00:05:41,373 --> 00:05:44,333 Speaker 4: I couldn't believe it myself. Actually, I took a film 91 00:05:44,373 --> 00:05:47,213 Speaker 4: crew up there. I think it was a Masterton, and 92 00:05:47,333 --> 00:05:49,893 Speaker 4: we broke the law again, I suppose, filming a woman 93 00:05:50,333 --> 00:05:53,813 Speaker 4: sipping a savignon blanc while waiting for a do. I 94 00:05:53,853 --> 00:05:56,093 Speaker 4: remember we got an amusing story out of it. But 95 00:05:56,173 --> 00:05:59,613 Speaker 4: because the change was required in the law, I don't 96 00:05:59,653 --> 00:06:03,893 Speaker 4: think much progress was made. But finally this week, some 97 00:06:04,293 --> 00:06:09,733 Speaker 4: forty years later, the stupidity of the laws, the pointless bureaucracy, 98 00:06:09,733 --> 00:06:13,613 Speaker 4: as Seymour would put it, around hairdressers and barbers, is 99 00:06:13,613 --> 00:06:17,493 Speaker 4: to be axed. A full revoke of the health regulations 100 00:06:17,653 --> 00:06:21,653 Speaker 4: relating to hairdressers is the aim, though I see changes 101 00:06:21,773 --> 00:06:25,893 Speaker 4: regarding the supply of alcohol has to go through more legislation, 102 00:06:26,213 --> 00:06:30,333 Speaker 4: but Surely no one's going to be prowling around salons 103 00:06:30,373 --> 00:06:34,133 Speaker 4: sniffing out wine in the meantime. Good on David Seymour 104 00:06:34,213 --> 00:06:36,173 Speaker 4: for moving on this. I think he's got a knack 105 00:06:36,773 --> 00:06:41,853 Speaker 4: a liking for really exposing unnecessary bureaucracy, a bit like 106 00:06:41,893 --> 00:06:45,773 Speaker 4: the late Bob Jones. One might even say that Seymour 107 00:06:45,853 --> 00:06:50,613 Speaker 4: should be encouraged in his endeavors to eliminate bureaucracy. It 108 00:06:50,693 --> 00:06:53,173 Speaker 4: might distract him from his other endeavors to share that 109 00:06:53,253 --> 00:06:54,493 Speaker 4: haven't been so positive. 110 00:06:56,413 --> 00:06:58,733 Speaker 2: We're a bit of a funny little contry, aren't we, Kevin. 111 00:06:58,813 --> 00:07:00,733 Speaker 2: We're a bit of a forty years we've been having 112 00:07:00,773 --> 00:07:01,413 Speaker 2: this discussion. 113 00:07:02,173 --> 00:07:05,453 Speaker 4: Yeah, yes, yes, that's right. I think a lot of 114 00:07:05,613 --> 00:07:07,293 Speaker 4: the a lot of the he addresses. I don't think 115 00:07:07,293 --> 00:07:08,693 Speaker 4: you even realized it was a problem. 116 00:07:09,013 --> 00:07:10,733 Speaker 2: No, because I was thinking back, and I'm going I'm 117 00:07:10,773 --> 00:07:13,893 Speaker 2: pretty sure in the early two thousands, if I was, 118 00:07:14,133 --> 00:07:15,453 Speaker 2: you know, when I was working full time and I 119 00:07:15,453 --> 00:07:17,053 Speaker 2: had to get my hair cut in the evenings, I'm 120 00:07:17,053 --> 00:07:19,053 Speaker 2: pretty sure I was offered a glass of wine then, 121 00:07:19,293 --> 00:07:22,893 Speaker 2: and then that kind of just disappeared right up and disappeared. 122 00:07:23,613 --> 00:07:27,613 Speaker 4: Yes, Yes, a funny thing actually happened my son who's 123 00:07:27,613 --> 00:07:31,493 Speaker 4: in London, had met a guy and his bar that 124 00:07:31,573 --> 00:07:35,093 Speaker 4: he runs over there who told him my mother was 125 00:07:35,133 --> 00:07:38,893 Speaker 4: on fair Go once with your dad and it turns 126 00:07:38,893 --> 00:07:41,693 Speaker 4: out that she was the fars from the wrapper. 127 00:07:41,893 --> 00:07:42,533 Speaker 2: That's funny. 128 00:07:42,853 --> 00:07:43,213 Speaker 6: Two ago. 129 00:07:43,373 --> 00:07:45,733 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, it's just it's a small world we live in, 130 00:07:45,853 --> 00:07:49,013 Speaker 2: isn't it. Very much? Just now, I suppose there's some 131 00:07:49,053 --> 00:07:50,893 Speaker 2: issues around the fact that, you know, we put a 132 00:07:50,933 --> 00:07:56,693 Speaker 2: lot of pressure on you know, institutions to have rules 133 00:07:56,693 --> 00:07:58,933 Speaker 2: about making sure people drink properly and drink well, and 134 00:07:59,133 --> 00:08:00,533 Speaker 2: you have to get like a license and you have 135 00:08:00,573 --> 00:08:03,253 Speaker 2: to go through all those sort of you know, hoops 136 00:08:03,253 --> 00:08:05,173 Speaker 2: and things. So I suppose it's sort of got to 137 00:08:05,213 --> 00:08:06,853 Speaker 2: be you've got to you know, got to make sure 138 00:08:06,853 --> 00:08:08,653 Speaker 2: there's a certain amount of responsibility that you can't just 139 00:08:08,653 --> 00:08:10,093 Speaker 2: be saying to anyone, you know, oh yeah, of course 140 00:08:10,133 --> 00:08:11,733 Speaker 2: you can be serving drinks, and you can be serving drinks. 141 00:08:11,733 --> 00:08:12,773 Speaker 2: I suppose you have to do a little bit of 142 00:08:12,853 --> 00:08:18,173 Speaker 2: you know, you have to still you can still do it.

We're 174 00:09:42,813 --> 00:09:45,413 Speaker 2: down to this last weekend of playoffs and it's kind 175 00:09:45,413 --> 00:09:48,253 Speaker 2: of the last round and all the games are crucial, 176 00:09:48,493 --> 00:09:48,893 Speaker 2: aren't they. 177 00:09:49,013 --> 00:09:51,533 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's been. I would say it's been one of 178 00:09:51,533 --> 00:09:53,253 Speaker 7: the best seasons we've seen in a long time, which 179 00:09:53,253 --> 00:09:57,453 Speaker 7: the competition needed because it was flagging. By my calculations, 180 00:09:57,493 --> 00:09:59,773 Speaker 7: I think around fifty percent or just under fifty percent 181 00:09:59,773 --> 00:10:03,213 Speaker 7: of the games have been decided by seven points or less, 182 00:10:04,533 --> 00:10:08,013 Speaker 7: which is exciting for fans for the competition. The rules 183 00:10:08,213 --> 00:10:12,013 Speaker 7: probably still need a good working on, because I think 184 00:10:12,013 --> 00:10:14,213 Speaker 7: there's still a lot of confusion around certain rules in 185 00:10:14,253 --> 00:10:16,773 Speaker 7: the game in gray gray areas. But all in all, 186 00:10:16,773 --> 00:10:18,853 Speaker 7: I think it's been an entertaining season. Last night the 187 00:10:18,893 --> 00:10:22,613 Speaker 7: Chiefs speak, the heighlight is forty one twenty four, so 188 00:10:22,693 --> 00:10:25,453 Speaker 7: they secure number one, so all through the playoffs now 189 00:10:25,453 --> 00:10:27,933 Speaker 7: as long as they go, as long as they keep winning, 190 00:10:27,933 --> 00:10:32,333 Speaker 7: they will have home advantage. The Crusaders very contentious win 191 00:10:32,413 --> 00:10:35,253 Speaker 7: over the Brumbies and Canberra never easy to win in Canberra. 192 00:10:35,333 --> 00:10:38,453 Speaker 7: The Brumbies are a good team. Crusaders thirty three thirty one, 193 00:10:39,133 --> 00:10:44,373 Speaker 7: very contentious, try to win for the Crusaders. It may 194 00:10:44,453 --> 00:10:47,893 Speaker 7: well have robbed the Brumbies of second place, which I'm 195 00:10:47,893 --> 00:10:50,573 Speaker 7: sure they're not happy about, but it's on the scoreboard. 196 00:10:50,613 --> 00:10:53,653 Speaker 7: The Crusaders winning by a couple of points their second, 197 00:10:54,213 --> 00:10:56,853 Speaker 7: the Brumbies third. Who they're going to play still needs 198 00:10:56,893 --> 00:11:00,813 Speaker 7: to be worked out. And this is going to be riveting. 199 00:11:01,373 --> 00:11:03,213 Speaker 7: It's going to be riveting this afternoon because you've got 200 00:11:03,213 --> 00:11:06,333 Speaker 7: the Blues Waratahs at four point thirty at Eighten Park. 201 00:11:06,453 --> 00:11:10,333 Speaker 7: Whoever wins that is into the playoffs for at least 202 00:11:10,373 --> 00:11:14,853 Speaker 7: a few hours. Then Mowana Pacifica traveling to Wellington to 203 00:11:14,893 --> 00:11:18,373 Speaker 7: play the Hurricanes. A lot of family connections, a lot 204 00:11:18,373 --> 00:11:20,893 Speaker 7: of mates in both teams, a lot of former players 205 00:11:20,893 --> 00:11:24,173 Speaker 7: from either team in both sides, so that will be 206 00:11:25,053 --> 00:11:28,253 Speaker 7: one to look out for and certainly and entertaining games. 207 00:11:28,533 --> 00:11:31,893 Speaker 7: If Mowana can upset and keep this dream season of 208 00:11:31,933 --> 00:11:35,453 Speaker 7: these going and still remain the darling of a lot 209 00:11:35,453 --> 00:11:38,693 Speaker 7: of rugby fans, they would make the playoffs because they've 210 00:11:38,693 --> 00:11:42,253 Speaker 7: won one more game than the Blues. Should the Blues 211 00:11:42,293 --> 00:11:46,013 Speaker 7: beat the Warritars hopefully not too confusing, but it'll all 212 00:11:46,053 --> 00:11:46,933 Speaker 7: pan out later today. 213 00:11:47,013 --> 00:11:47,173 Speaker 5: Yep. 214 00:11:47,253 --> 00:11:49,093 Speaker 2: No, So the Hurricanes are sitting at number four and 215 00:11:49,173 --> 00:11:51,173 Speaker 2: one of PACIFICA at sex. So as you say, the 216 00:11:51,213 --> 00:11:53,453 Speaker 2: Blues need to beat the war Retars and one of 217 00:11:53,493 --> 00:11:55,973 Speaker 2: PACIFICA needs to lose the Hurricanes, and then the Blues, 218 00:11:56,293 --> 00:11:59,773 Speaker 2: the defending champions, might sneak into the playoffs. 219 00:11:59,413 --> 00:12:03,813 Speaker 7: Might sneak in, and then, as I've mentioned several times, 220 00:12:03,893 --> 00:12:05,973 Speaker 7: they I don't think any team would want to face 221 00:12:06,013 --> 00:12:08,413 Speaker 7: the Blue even if they finished sixth, they're still very, 222 00:12:08,533 --> 00:12:10,693 Speaker 7: very dangerous with the players. They've got a fake click 223 00:12:11,653 --> 00:12:13,653 Speaker 7: look out. 224 00:12:13,213 --> 00:12:16,333 Speaker 2: As you mentioned, though, this has been such a fabulous 225 00:12:16,733 --> 00:12:19,493 Speaker 2: competition this year. Who stood out for you? Like, I've 226 00:12:19,573 --> 00:12:21,333 Speaker 2: loved watching Moreana Pacific games. 227 00:12:21,853 --> 00:12:24,573 Speaker 7: Yeah, I love watching Mowana. I love watching Ardi Savia. 228 00:12:24,653 --> 00:12:27,773 Speaker 7: He's been absolutely superb. He's going to be a big 229 00:12:27,813 --> 00:12:31,933 Speaker 7: loss next year because he's off on a sabbatical next year, 230 00:12:31,933 --> 00:12:35,493 Speaker 7: I think to Japan, so Mowana won't have him. That'll 231 00:12:35,573 --> 00:12:38,293 Speaker 7: leave a big, big hole. But I've loved watching what 232 00:12:38,333 --> 00:12:42,253 Speaker 7: they've done. I've loved watching the attention they've received quite rightly, 233 00:12:43,413 --> 00:12:47,213 Speaker 7: and let's not forget this team does often play on 234 00:12:47,293 --> 00:12:49,693 Speaker 7: and off the field with one arm tied behind their back, 235 00:12:49,733 --> 00:12:53,893 Speaker 7: given the restrictions are under and given financial constraints and 236 00:12:53,893 --> 00:12:56,333 Speaker 7: what have you. But yeah, loved watching them. I think 237 00:12:56,973 --> 00:13:00,213 Speaker 7: in patches that the Chiefs have lit up the competition, 238 00:13:00,453 --> 00:13:04,573 Speaker 7: as have the Crusaders, as have the Hurricanes. So I 239 00:13:04,613 --> 00:13:07,573 Speaker 7: think there's a lot of play is running into form 240 00:13:07,613 --> 00:13:10,413 Speaker 7: as far as All Black contention is concerned. Let's not 241 00:13:10,453 --> 00:13:12,573 Speaker 7: forget the first All Black squad of the year is 242 00:13:12,653 --> 00:13:15,773 Speaker 7: named in a few weeks, so I think we're starting 243 00:13:15,773 --> 00:13:19,773 Speaker 7: to see the good old cream rise to the top 244 00:13:19,773 --> 00:13:20,453 Speaker 7: of the competition. 245 00:13:20,533 --> 00:13:22,573 Speaker 2: Do you think Addie Severe could be in contention for 246 00:13:22,653 --> 00:13:23,493 Speaker 2: All Blacks captain? 247 00:13:25,733 --> 00:13:28,093 Speaker 5: He should be, but he won't be. 248 00:13:28,493 --> 00:13:32,053 Speaker 7: I'm pretty sure Scott Barrett will be retained as the 249 00:13:32,093 --> 00:13:35,733 Speaker 7: All Blacks captain. I can't see them making a change here. 250 00:13:35,813 --> 00:13:37,613 Speaker 7: The All Blacks all right. 251 00:13:38,213 --> 00:13:43,293 Speaker 2: Positive signs from if one practice in Barcelona for Liam Lawson, 252 00:13:43,613 --> 00:13:46,373 Speaker 2: he's clocked a sixth and a tenth. This is just practice, 253 00:13:46,653 --> 00:13:49,493 Speaker 2: but he's waded a sixth and a tenth fastest times 254 00:13:49,533 --> 00:13:51,253 Speaker 2: across both sessions, which is good. 255 00:13:52,653 --> 00:13:55,453 Speaker 7: If he keeps Yeah, if he keeps plugging away and 256 00:13:55,493 --> 00:13:59,013 Speaker 7: getting top tens and practices and maybe top you know 257 00:13:59,333 --> 00:14:03,733 Speaker 7: eight in qualifying for Barcelona. That's a that's a big 258 00:14:03,773 --> 00:14:07,573 Speaker 7: win for Lawson considering where he's come from. He ran 259 00:14:07,573 --> 00:14:10,573 Speaker 7: a very good race last week in Monaco for his 260 00:14:10,653 --> 00:14:14,893 Speaker 7: team and gained personal points as well, but more importantly 261 00:14:14,933 --> 00:14:18,053 Speaker 7: team points for his racing balls outfit. So if he 262 00:14:18,093 --> 00:14:23,013 Speaker 7: just keeps chipping away, clearly, as he gets more time 263 00:14:23,133 --> 00:14:26,373 Speaker 7: in that car, he will improve, There's no doubt about it. 264 00:14:26,373 --> 00:14:30,533 Speaker 7: He's a talented kid. So this is good promising signs 265 00:14:30,573 --> 00:14:31,733 Speaker 7: for Liam Lawson. 266 00:14:31,933 --> 00:14:35,253 Speaker 2: I've been saying Andrew, just leave him alone. He started 267 00:14:35,373 --> 00:14:37,373 Speaker 2: with such a hiss and a roar on all his 268 00:14:37,453 --> 00:14:40,853 Speaker 2: attention and it was full on. I said, leave the catalone, 269 00:14:40,933 --> 00:14:43,733 Speaker 2: just let it, let him drive. He'll find his confidence, 270 00:14:43,773 --> 00:14:44,293 Speaker 2: he'll find us. 271 00:14:44,373 --> 00:14:46,573 Speaker 7: And as we're seeing whoever they put in that second car, 272 00:14:47,333 --> 00:14:50,013 Speaker 7: Red Ball, it's a bit of a poison choice, isn't it. 273 00:14:50,053 --> 00:14:53,613 Speaker 7: So probably better off to be out of there. And 274 00:14:53,693 --> 00:14:54,533 Speaker 7: I wouldn't I wouldn't. 275 00:14:54,533 --> 00:14:54,933 Speaker 8: I wouldn't. 276 00:14:54,933 --> 00:14:58,133 Speaker 7: I wouldn't totally count out in the future Lawson returning 277 00:14:58,133 --> 00:15:00,173 Speaker 7: to to the top Red Bull team. 278 00:15:00,173 --> 00:15:03,853 Speaker 2: But it's all going to depend on form, isn't it yep? Ye, 279 00:15:04,453 --> 00:15:06,293 Speaker 2: So if he can just quietly find his feet this 280 00:15:06,453 --> 00:15:08,333 Speaker 2: season and keep as you say, getting in the top 281 00:15:08,373 --> 00:15:10,733 Speaker 2: tenking some points things, you know, and just you know, 282 00:15:11,773 --> 00:15:13,653 Speaker 2: I think it was very tough. You know, you don't 283 00:15:14,093 --> 00:15:16,733 Speaker 2: look some of these kids go from you know, Chemist 284 00:15:18,213 --> 00:15:21,013 Speaker 2: who has done pretty well stepping up into Mercedes. That's 285 00:15:21,053 --> 00:15:24,173 Speaker 2: pretty impressive, but that is a very big step to make. 286 00:15:24,213 --> 00:15:26,773 Speaker 2: So we just will enjoy that. Do you know what 287 00:15:26,813 --> 00:15:28,133 Speaker 2: time it's on in Barcelona? 288 00:15:28,253 --> 00:15:29,173 Speaker 8: What time is clified? 289 00:15:29,173 --> 00:15:31,213 Speaker 7: I think Monday, it'll be Monday, maybe two or three 290 00:15:31,253 --> 00:15:34,453 Speaker 7: a Monday morning out time time. Yeah, qualifying will be 291 00:15:34,493 --> 00:15:39,253 Speaker 7: similar time tomorrow morning our time. So you small ahead 292 00:15:39,253 --> 00:15:40,653 Speaker 7: of Leah Wilson Spain. 293 00:15:41,133 --> 00:15:46,653 Speaker 2: Excellent. And this week we lost a former national cricket coach, 294 00:15:46,733 --> 00:15:47,333 Speaker 2: David Trist. 295 00:15:47,693 --> 00:15:47,853 Speaker 5: Yeah. 296 00:15:47,853 --> 00:15:51,853 Speaker 7: I wanted to mention David Trist Francisca because he was 297 00:15:51,853 --> 00:15:55,253 Speaker 7: a great man. He only coached New Zealand for a 298 00:15:55,293 --> 00:15:58,213 Speaker 7: couple of years. It should have been a lot longer. 299 00:15:59,373 --> 00:16:00,573 Speaker 3: He won that. 300 00:16:01,173 --> 00:16:04,693 Speaker 7: I see c knockout tournament in Kenya. I think it 301 00:16:04,693 --> 00:16:09,653 Speaker 7: was New Zealand's first ever global type tournament win. But 302 00:16:09,733 --> 00:16:11,653 Speaker 7: more so in the late eighties and early nineties. He 303 00:16:11,733 --> 00:16:15,293 Speaker 7: coached a Canterbury team that brought through. He brought through 304 00:16:15,333 --> 00:16:18,893 Speaker 7: a number of superstars, you know, Stephen Fleming, Chris Key 305 00:16:18,973 --> 00:16:23,053 Speaker 7: and Nathan Astell, Chris Harris, Lee, Jamon and others. It 306 00:16:23,133 --> 00:16:25,813 Speaker 7: was a fantastic cricket team, great bunch of guys and 307 00:16:25,853 --> 00:16:29,773 Speaker 7: all led by a wonderful cricket coach and a wonderful man. 308 00:16:30,133 --> 00:16:34,373 Speaker 7: And David Trist he was one of those people Francesca. 309 00:16:34,453 --> 00:16:35,893 Speaker 7: He always had a glint in his eye, had his 310 00:16:36,013 --> 00:16:39,413 Speaker 7: wonderful handlebar mustache. He was a very smart man, not 311 00:16:39,493 --> 00:16:42,973 Speaker 7: only talking to him about cricket, but life in general 312 00:16:43,013 --> 00:16:45,573 Speaker 7: and all sorts of things. Very very smart, always had 313 00:16:45,613 --> 00:16:49,093 Speaker 7: time for everybody, very popular, and you a real great 314 00:16:49,133 --> 00:16:55,133 Speaker 7: loss for cricket, for sport and for Canterbury and New 315 00:16:55,213 --> 00:16:57,813 Speaker 7: Zealand in general. Lived in a beautiful spot. I don't 316 00:16:57,813 --> 00:16:59,453 Speaker 7: know if you know little River which is on the 317 00:16:59,453 --> 00:17:02,853 Speaker 7: way to arkherol On Banks financial a beautiful part of 318 00:17:02,893 --> 00:17:05,533 Speaker 7: the world and he lived there for a number of years. 319 00:17:05,533 --> 00:17:10,493 Speaker 7: Required and yet that I think that little we village 320 00:17:10,493 --> 00:17:15,253 Speaker 7: summed up David Trist's colorful, quite well thought. 321 00:17:15,013 --> 00:17:18,893 Speaker 5: Out and yeah, great man. 322 00:17:18,813 --> 00:17:20,933 Speaker 2: He was a player as well.

He was a 324 00:17:24,733 --> 00:17:29,373 Speaker 7: bit of a past bowler from memory, but you know, 325 00:17:29,413 --> 00:17:33,173 Speaker 7: and I'll never forget in the early nineties he gave 326 00:17:33,213 --> 00:17:35,853 Speaker 7: a lot of his time and would always chat to 327 00:17:35,893 --> 00:17:40,533 Speaker 7: a certain bumfluff radio reporter as in youers truly in 328 00:17:40,613 --> 00:17:43,213 Speaker 7: christ Chute, And I'll never forget that the time and 329 00:17:44,653 --> 00:17:47,653 Speaker 7: he gave to me and the advice he gave to me, 330 00:17:47,773 --> 00:17:50,173 Speaker 7: and that the chats would always had so always have. 331 00:17:50,333 --> 00:17:52,253 Speaker 7: So yeah, big loss. 332 00:17:52,373 --> 00:17:55,293 Speaker 2: Oh thanks for those thoughts and those words. Andrew, nice 333 00:17:55,293 --> 00:17:57,333 Speaker 2: to catch up with you. That was Andrew Savill. There 334 00:17:58,053 --> 00:18:01,573 Speaker 2: now Jesse Armstrong. He created the TV show Succession, which 335 00:18:01,693 --> 00:18:04,213 Speaker 2: many of you will be familiar with. He is back 336 00:18:04,293 --> 00:18:08,093 Speaker 2: with another satire. It is also about uber wealthy people. 337 00:18:08,133 --> 00:18:12,253 Speaker 2: He didn't mean to immediately write another film or TV 338 00:18:12,293 --> 00:18:17,093 Speaker 2: show about very wealthy people, but he became absolutely fascinated 339 00:18:17,173 --> 00:18:22,973 Speaker 2: with the tech billionaires and so he conceived this film, 340 00:18:23,293 --> 00:18:25,813 Speaker 2: wrote it and shot it in about six months, which 341 00:18:25,853 --> 00:18:28,213 Speaker 2: is actually really remarkable. And he just wanted to do 342 00:18:28,253 --> 00:18:30,253 Speaker 2: that because he wanted to get it out as fast 343 00:18:30,253 --> 00:18:34,813 Speaker 2: as possible because it is so timely. These four tech 344 00:18:34,853 --> 00:18:37,853 Speaker 2: billionaires that he has made this film about. They are 345 00:18:37,853 --> 00:18:40,213 Speaker 2: prepared to do pretty much anything to rule the world 346 00:18:40,293 --> 00:18:43,693 Speaker 2: and take us post human. Carl Pushman has watched the 347 00:18:43,733 --> 00:18:45,773 Speaker 2: film and he is going to give us his thoughts 348 00:18:46,093 --> 00:18:48,573 Speaker 2: on it. Next it is nine point thirty with News Talks, 349 00:18:48,613 --> 00:18:53,493 Speaker 2: Abe Says. 350 00:19:04,053 --> 00:19:04,813 Speaker 9: Love Me. 351 00:19:05,573 --> 00:19:09,293 Speaker 2: Taylor Swift has brought the original recordings to her first 352 00:19:09,333 --> 00:19:13,293 Speaker 2: six albums. This is ending a year's long legal saga 353 00:19:13,413 --> 00:19:16,293 Speaker 2: that you remember, she started re recording all her old 354 00:19:16,333 --> 00:19:18,373 Speaker 2: work because she no longer owned it, and then so 355 00:19:18,413 --> 00:19:21,293 Speaker 2: she re recorded it so she owned those recordings, and 356 00:19:21,373 --> 00:19:24,733 Speaker 2: actually the fans were loving it because she'd changed the 357 00:19:24,773 --> 00:19:27,413 Speaker 2: songs a little bird or strow it an extra track, 358 00:19:27,573 --> 00:19:30,693 Speaker 2: or do things a little bit differently, and the Swifties 359 00:19:30,733 --> 00:19:33,853 Speaker 2: would sit and they'd compare it, and oh, it's very exciting. Anyway, 360 00:19:34,613 --> 00:19:36,973 Speaker 2: she's just of course finished the errors tour around the world, 361 00:19:37,013 --> 00:19:40,653 Speaker 2: but she has finally been able to buy back those 362 00:19:40,733 --> 00:19:45,933 Speaker 2: original recordings, which is really good for her. Although a 363 00:19:45,933 --> 00:19:49,293 Speaker 2: lot of Swifties were expecting her to now release Reputation 364 00:19:49,853 --> 00:19:51,973 Speaker 2: as a re recorded album, and we're very much looking 365 00:19:52,013 --> 00:19:53,373 Speaker 2: forward to it, and she probably won't do that now. 366 00:19:53,453 --> 00:19:57,253 Speaker 2: She doesn't need to. She owns it, so good honor. 367 00:19:57,373 --> 00:20:00,453 Speaker 2: That was quite a long battle for her and she 368 00:20:00,573 --> 00:20:03,613 Speaker 2: has won it. Right. Film time now, and I'm joined 369 00:20:03,613 --> 00:20:07,293 Speaker 2: by writer of weekly film and TV Substack Crack, Kyl 370 00:20:07,333 --> 00:20:08,733 Speaker 2: Pushman is worth me. 371 00:20:08,813 --> 00:20:11,253 Speaker 3: Good morning, Carl, Hi, Patrisca. 372 00:20:11,693 --> 00:20:13,173 Speaker 2: Good to talk to you. We've got a couple of 373 00:20:13,213 --> 00:20:17,013 Speaker 2: films to discuss today. Let's start with Mountain Head and 374 00:20:17,093 --> 00:20:17,733 Speaker 2: have a listen to this. 375 00:20:19,253 --> 00:20:22,613 Speaker 10: I hope you're rich folks, don't mind slumming it in 376 00:20:22,693 --> 00:20:25,333 Speaker 10: the humble abode of the poorest billionaire in the gang. 377 00:20:25,373 --> 00:20:31,053 Speaker 8: All right, your platform is inflamed, volble situation, the weapons 378 00:20:31,053 --> 00:20:32,413 Speaker 8: start piling, some bank. 379 00:20:32,213 --> 00:20:35,333 Speaker 11: Fronts, violence, chaos, and people are dying. 380 00:20:35,733 --> 00:20:39,013 Speaker 3: Not real, And don't explode like that. And don't explode 381 00:20:39,013 --> 00:20:42,213 Speaker 3: like that. You know how to hand to explode. 382 00:20:42,573 --> 00:20:46,573 Speaker 2: It seems to me, Kyl, that only Jessy Armstrong could 383 00:20:46,773 --> 00:20:48,053 Speaker 2: pull something like this together. 384 00:20:49,413 --> 00:20:52,493 Speaker 8: Yes, yes, you find yourself watching a movie with four 385 00:20:52,693 --> 00:20:57,533 Speaker 8: extremely unlikable lead characters, which might be a cinema first 386 00:20:57,573 --> 00:21:00,053 Speaker 8: I think, normally there's someone to get behind and root for, 387 00:21:00,253 --> 00:21:03,133 Speaker 8: but here you don't like anyone. It's quite unusual in 388 00:21:03,173 --> 00:21:08,613 Speaker 8: that regard. The four main characters are tech billionaires tech brollionaires, 389 00:21:08,693 --> 00:21:10,293 Speaker 8: I like to call them, and they're all sort of 390 00:21:10,373 --> 00:21:14,853 Speaker 8: based on that they've got familiarities with our actual real 391 00:21:14,893 --> 00:21:19,133 Speaker 8: world current crop of billionaires. You know, there's that same arrogance, 392 00:21:19,333 --> 00:21:24,213 Speaker 8: hubrious abhorrence, but it doesn't copy their direct personas. So 393 00:21:24,213 --> 00:21:27,413 Speaker 8: there's no Elon Musk, but there are, but one of 394 00:21:27,453 --> 00:21:29,733 Speaker 8: the characters has a lot of Elon Musk characteristics if 395 00:21:29,733 --> 00:21:33,413 Speaker 8: you sort of follow me. And it's all about one 396 00:21:33,453 --> 00:21:37,413 Speaker 8: of them unleashing a genitor of generative AI onto their 397 00:21:37,453 --> 00:21:42,813 Speaker 8: social network, which is capable of producing photorealistic movies. Predictably, 398 00:21:42,933 --> 00:21:47,893 Speaker 8: this leads to instant chaos with no guardrails implemented around 399 00:21:47,893 --> 00:21:51,653 Speaker 8: its usage, and the world falls into quite a lot 400 00:21:51,693 --> 00:21:55,973 Speaker 8: of global conflict happening, which they see as an opportunity 401 00:21:56,053 --> 00:21:59,293 Speaker 8: to exert their digital influence and implement their sort of 402 00:21:59,533 --> 00:22:02,173 Speaker 8: tech bro philosophies, which are all will be familiar to 403 00:22:02,173 --> 00:22:03,853 Speaker 8: those that sort of follow the news and what these 404 00:22:03,893 --> 00:22:05,573 Speaker 8: people do actually believe. 405 00:22:05,533 --> 00:22:07,653 Speaker 2: They speak their ownanguage, don't they, Carl, And, to be 406 00:22:07,693 --> 00:22:10,013 Speaker 2: honest with you, when the film began, I thought, I'm 407 00:22:10,013 --> 00:22:12,093 Speaker 2: not sure I can keep up with this. You know, 408 00:22:12,133 --> 00:22:15,453 Speaker 2: they have their own language, they have their own philosophies 409 00:22:15,453 --> 00:22:17,733 Speaker 2: and moral compass and just way of talking about the world, 410 00:22:17,733 --> 00:22:20,093 Speaker 2: which takes a little bit to get used to. But 411 00:22:20,133 --> 00:22:22,213 Speaker 2: then something happened. I don't know if you noticed this. 412 00:22:22,773 --> 00:22:25,173 Speaker 2: There is a point in the film where Sev Carrel, 413 00:22:25,253 --> 00:22:27,933 Speaker 2: who is playing one of these tech bros. He runs 414 00:22:27,973 --> 00:22:30,813 Speaker 2: into a glass door in this artom monstonsity at a 415 00:22:30,853 --> 00:22:32,853 Speaker 2: house that they're living in that they're all staying for 416 00:22:32,893 --> 00:22:35,053 Speaker 2: a weekend and up in the mountains, he runs into 417 00:22:35,093 --> 00:22:37,813 Speaker 2: a glass door and it's like the film switches from 418 00:22:37,813 --> 00:22:41,413 Speaker 2: a satire to a black comedy, and all of a sudden, 419 00:22:41,453 --> 00:22:42,013 Speaker 2: I was all in. 420 00:22:43,293 --> 00:22:45,693 Speaker 8: That is exactly my experience the first half. If I 421 00:22:45,693 --> 00:22:47,733 Speaker 8: can use a sports analogy for a second, the first 422 00:22:47,733 --> 00:22:50,213 Speaker 8: half it's a movie of two halves. In the first 423 00:22:50,253 --> 00:22:53,173 Speaker 8: half I found quite boring, and there were things flying 424 00:22:53,213 --> 00:22:55,533 Speaker 8: that they weren't landing, and I was thinking this should 425 00:22:55,533 --> 00:22:58,133 Speaker 8: be way funnier than it is. I recognize that they're 426 00:22:58,173 --> 00:23:00,493 Speaker 8: saying jokes, but they're not. It's just not fun. It's 427 00:23:00,493 --> 00:23:03,693 Speaker 8: just not that funny. At that point that you've just mentioned, 428 00:23:03,973 --> 00:23:07,373 Speaker 8: the film does the second half so worth It is 429 00:23:07,453 --> 00:23:10,133 Speaker 8: just like laugh out loud hilarious, and there's sort of 430 00:23:10,133 --> 00:23:14,213 Speaker 8: a mix between the witty zingers in one liners and 431 00:23:14,253 --> 00:23:16,533 Speaker 8: that little bit of physical comedy as well in there, 432 00:23:16,573 --> 00:23:19,773 Speaker 8: which just elevates the whole thing. So it's quite Yeah, 433 00:23:19,973 --> 00:23:22,693 Speaker 8: it's another strange part of the film where the first 434 00:23:22,733 --> 00:23:25,533 Speaker 8: half is a drag, in the second half it is 435 00:23:25,573 --> 00:23:26,133 Speaker 8: quite brilliant. 436 00:23:26,133 --> 00:23:28,853 Speaker 2: I thought, No, I completely agreed, and just that the 437 00:23:29,053 --> 00:23:33,093 Speaker 2: arrogance and the greed of these men is just extraordinary. 438 00:23:33,773 --> 00:23:38,333 Speaker 8: It and so timely, like I think it's quite possibly 439 00:23:38,333 --> 00:23:41,213 Speaker 8: the most timely film ever released, Like they only finished 440 00:23:41,213 --> 00:23:45,173 Speaker 8: shooting it last month, so it's got out blisteringly quick 441 00:23:45,573 --> 00:23:49,133 Speaker 8: and due to a quirk and timing. It's so timely 442 00:23:49,213 --> 00:23:51,973 Speaker 8: and so relevant, but also a little bit outdated because 443 00:23:51,973 --> 00:23:56,533 Speaker 8: they're dealing with this catastrophe about Photorealistic AI being released, 444 00:23:56,653 --> 00:23:59,893 Speaker 8: and a few days ago Google did release VO three, 445 00:23:59,933 --> 00:24:02,253 Speaker 8: which is capable of doing exactly what they're talking about 446 00:24:02,253 --> 00:24:05,173 Speaker 8: in the movie, which kind of makes it from a 447 00:24:05,653 --> 00:24:08,293 Speaker 8: slightly feature sick satire to almost an episode of Black 448 00:24:08,293 --> 00:24:10,413 Speaker 8: Mirror where you're like, oh, this is reality that we're 449 00:24:10,413 --> 00:24:13,813 Speaker 8: actually now living in. So I hadn't been released last week, 450 00:24:13,893 --> 00:24:15,853 Speaker 8: it would have been a different story, but it's just 451 00:24:15,893 --> 00:24:18,213 Speaker 8: so strange. Well, that's a fast tech moves. 452 00:24:18,213 --> 00:24:20,013 Speaker 2: It's amazing, isn't it. I mean, this is how horrible 453 00:24:20,013 --> 00:24:23,533 Speaker 2: these people are. Right, So they call their host and 454 00:24:23,573 --> 00:24:26,613 Speaker 2: they call him Super which is short for soup Kitchen, 455 00:24:26,813 --> 00:24:29,493 Speaker 2: because he's only worth five hundred and thirty million and 456 00:24:29,533 --> 00:24:30,853 Speaker 2: the rest of them worth billions. 457 00:24:31,693 --> 00:24:36,693 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean he's the pauper of the group, that poor. 458 00:24:36,813 --> 00:24:36,973 Speaker 5: Yeah. 459 00:24:37,053 --> 00:24:37,293 Speaker 12: Yeah. 460 00:24:37,773 --> 00:24:37,933 Speaker 5: OK. 461 00:24:38,333 --> 00:24:40,413 Speaker 2: Let's talk about another film. And I'm really pleased that 462 00:24:40,453 --> 00:24:43,293 Speaker 2: you're talking about this because Captain America Brave World was 463 00:24:43,373 --> 00:24:46,333 Speaker 2: released early on in the cinemas, but it kind of 464 00:24:46,413 --> 00:24:48,693 Speaker 2: just was released with no hype. No one really knew 465 00:24:48,733 --> 00:24:51,373 Speaker 2: it was out, and it's now being released on Disney. 466 00:24:51,453 --> 00:24:52,133 Speaker 2: Let's have a listen. 467 00:24:53,373 --> 00:24:57,893 Speaker 3: I was wartime general, now I'm a wartime presator. 468 00:24:59,133 --> 00:25:01,733 Speaker 5: Your inner circle has been compromised. Let me fix it. 469 00:25:02,013 --> 00:25:08,013 Speaker 3: Watch yourself. You're not Steve Rogers, right, No. 470 00:25:11,573 --> 00:25:14,813 Speaker 2: So that was Captain America Brave New World out now 471 00:25:14,853 --> 00:25:18,213 Speaker 2: on Disney Plus. Carl is Marvel losing its magic? 472 00:25:19,973 --> 00:25:23,013 Speaker 8: It's I think it lost its magic for a little 473 00:25:23,013 --> 00:25:27,333 Speaker 8: while there, and it's in course correction mode. And this 474 00:25:27,413 --> 00:25:30,293 Speaker 8: is part of the course correction it's you know, it's 475 00:25:30,333 --> 00:25:32,733 Speaker 8: a it's a massive ship. This is like the thirty 476 00:25:32,813 --> 00:25:35,733 Speaker 8: fifth film in the series, which is just bananas when 477 00:25:35,733 --> 00:25:38,013 Speaker 8: you stop and think about it. So it's a it's 478 00:25:38,053 --> 00:25:40,653 Speaker 8: a it's a slow shift. But I think they are 479 00:25:40,653 --> 00:25:42,773 Speaker 8: talking about they went through that period where there was 480 00:25:42,853 --> 00:25:45,493 Speaker 8: just too many. It was an overwhelming amount of films 481 00:25:45,533 --> 00:25:47,573 Speaker 8: where you just unless you were die hard, it was 482 00:25:47,573 --> 00:25:51,413 Speaker 8: impossible to keep up. So they're in this triggy place 483 00:25:51,413 --> 00:25:53,453 Speaker 8: now where they're trying to balance those die hard fans 484 00:25:53,493 --> 00:25:56,333 Speaker 8: and bringing people sort of like me that dipped out 485 00:25:56,333 --> 00:26:00,013 Speaker 8: of the franchise bring them back. And it's a hard 486 00:26:00,053 --> 00:26:04,853 Speaker 8: balance and yeah, how much you buy into it, Yeah, 487 00:26:04,853 --> 00:26:06,773 Speaker 8: they've got to make it so it appeals to someone 488 00:26:06,853 --> 00:26:11,093 Speaker 8: just casually watching. And this is a political action thriller 489 00:26:11,653 --> 00:26:14,693 Speaker 8: at its heart, with a giant, big red hulk running 490 00:26:14,693 --> 00:26:17,773 Speaker 8: around smashing them things up. But it does do what 491 00:26:17,853 --> 00:26:20,013 Speaker 8: it sets out to do quite well. There's a lot 492 00:26:20,013 --> 00:26:22,413 Speaker 8: of fan stuff that they'll be into, but you can 493 00:26:22,533 --> 00:26:26,333 Speaker 8: sit down and understand what's going on without needing the 494 00:26:26,373 --> 00:26:29,013 Speaker 8: prior knowledge of the thirty five films. You know, the 495 00:26:29,053 --> 00:26:33,693 Speaker 8: big drawers. Harrison Ford playing the President who has anger 496 00:26:33,733 --> 00:26:36,053 Speaker 8: management problems that lead them to becoming Red Hulk, which 497 00:26:36,093 --> 00:26:38,013 Speaker 8: is obviously a problem for the President of the United 498 00:26:38,053 --> 00:26:41,093 Speaker 8: States of America. And then there's Captain America played by 499 00:26:41,093 --> 00:26:44,493 Speaker 8: Anthony Mackie, who's really great. He's the new Captain and 500 00:26:44,893 --> 00:26:47,293 Speaker 8: he's trying to work out why this is happening and 501 00:26:48,173 --> 00:26:51,893 Speaker 8: prevent it from happening. So there's a lot going on, 502 00:26:52,733 --> 00:26:56,213 Speaker 8: but there's enough there for both camps to enjoy. I 503 00:26:56,213 --> 00:27:00,613 Speaker 8: don't think it's a solid home run for the MCU, 504 00:27:01,013 --> 00:27:04,453 Speaker 8: but it's a decent watch on streaming for say a 505 00:27:04,453 --> 00:27:05,053 Speaker 8: Saturday night. 506 00:27:05,293 --> 00:27:07,573 Speaker 2: Okay, so you see this is a into reboot almost. 507 00:27:08,813 --> 00:27:10,373 Speaker 8: I don't know if I've done that far. I just 508 00:27:10,373 --> 00:27:13,533 Speaker 8: think it's a it's like it is continuing things on, 509 00:27:13,933 --> 00:27:17,253 Speaker 8: like there's references to everything. It has that same Marvel 510 00:27:17,293 --> 00:27:21,733 Speaker 8: problem where a problem for casual people like me, but 511 00:27:22,253 --> 00:27:24,973 Speaker 8: what the fans are into where it's setting up things 512 00:27:24,973 --> 00:27:26,213 Speaker 8: for the next film. So you kind of feel like 513 00:27:26,213 --> 00:27:28,453 Speaker 8: you're in that cycle of I'm watching this film, but 514 00:27:28,493 --> 00:27:30,253 Speaker 8: it's kind of set up for the next film, and 515 00:27:30,293 --> 00:27:31,613 Speaker 8: then you watch that next film and it's kind of 516 00:27:31,613 --> 00:27:34,653 Speaker 8: sitting up the next door that might be so minute 517 00:27:34,653 --> 00:27:36,613 Speaker 8: anyone who's sort of spent some time around the MCU, 518 00:27:36,893 --> 00:27:39,973 Speaker 8: So it's definitely got that aspect to it where things 519 00:27:39,973 --> 00:27:41,573 Speaker 8: are being set up. I would have liked to see 520 00:27:41,653 --> 00:27:44,133 Speaker 8: a little bit more Red Hulk in it, because you 521 00:27:44,133 --> 00:27:49,573 Speaker 8: know that's obviously Harrison's would going Hulk rage is quite 522 00:27:49,573 --> 00:27:53,133 Speaker 8: a quite a slight But yeah, it was. It was 523 00:27:53,133 --> 00:27:56,893 Speaker 8: all right, it's not it's not going to convince anyone unconvinced. 524 00:27:58,733 --> 00:28:00,973 Speaker 2: And are we expecting the Adventures to come back? 525 00:28:02,573 --> 00:28:06,733 Speaker 8: Well, the that's without going to spoil a terror too. 526 00:28:06,813 --> 00:28:10,613 Speaker 2: Oh okay, okay, right right back. No no no no no 527 00:28:10,613 --> 00:28:13,133 Speaker 2: no no, no no, we don't want to. I do 528 00:28:13,213 --> 00:28:15,373 Speaker 2: not want to have the Avengers dance on the text 529 00:28:15,453 --> 00:28:17,333 Speaker 2: machine for the rest of the morning. So let's just 530 00:28:17,453 --> 00:28:19,973 Speaker 2: leave it there. Cal Pushman, thank you so much for 531 00:28:20,053 --> 00:28:23,333 Speaker 2: your thoughts this morning.

Yes, it was absolutely adorable, 551 00:29:17,813 --> 00:29:19,893 Speaker 13: but I was I was just telling our producer that 552 00:29:20,333 --> 00:29:23,733 Speaker 13: I also love coming home, probably more than more than 553 00:29:23,853 --> 00:29:25,733 Speaker 13: more than the holiday. I love coming home, and I've 554 00:29:25,733 --> 00:29:28,293 Speaker 13: loved coming home to the cold weather. I'm inspired by 555 00:29:28,333 --> 00:29:31,573 Speaker 13: lots of Balinese food, but home is best, I think, 556 00:29:31,613 --> 00:29:34,973 Speaker 13: you know. So Yeah, we'll see how we go with 557 00:29:35,213 --> 00:29:37,613 Speaker 13: testings of Balinese recipes and I'll rock those out in 558 00:29:37,613 --> 00:29:38,133 Speaker 13: a few weeks. 559 00:29:38,373 --> 00:29:40,573 Speaker 2: Fantastic. Now, that's a good attitude. Helps get over the 560 00:29:40,653 --> 00:29:45,293 Speaker 2: jet lag. Yeah, yeah, you have got a King's Birthday 561 00:29:45,373 --> 00:29:49,013 Speaker 2: Leamington cake ressus morning. I like I never tire of Leamington. 562 00:29:49,773 --> 00:29:53,213 Speaker 13: I never tire of Leamington's, and this Leamington cake once 563 00:29:53,253 --> 00:29:56,053 Speaker 13: you start making it, you'll never tire of it either. People. 564 00:29:56,133 --> 00:29:58,653 Speaker 13: It just brings a huge smile to everybody's face. It's 565 00:29:58,693 --> 00:30:01,893 Speaker 13: just it's kind of hilarious and glorious and actually super 566 00:30:01,893 --> 00:30:04,253 Speaker 13: easy to make, and it is absolutely delicious. 567 00:30:04,293 --> 00:30:07,093 Speaker 2: Why is it hilarious Because it's sort. 568 00:30:06,933 --> 00:30:09,133 Speaker 13: Of this giant Leamington you know what I mean, And 569 00:30:09,173 --> 00:30:11,773 Speaker 13: it's kind of like what the heck, you know. But 570 00:30:12,093 --> 00:30:14,173 Speaker 13: there's a few things that make this a really lovely 571 00:30:14,293 --> 00:30:16,893 Speaker 13: kind of adult cake, and that is the tart rasberries 572 00:30:16,973 --> 00:30:19,333 Speaker 13: jet and sort of icing that's on it. And I 573 00:30:19,373 --> 00:30:22,293 Speaker 13: do use fresh raspberries for this, and that gives a 574 00:30:22,333 --> 00:30:24,573 Speaker 13: tartness to it, which I think is really important. Otherwise 575 00:30:24,573 --> 00:30:27,493 Speaker 13: it's just quite sweet because coconut's quite sweet. There's a 576 00:30:27,533 --> 00:30:31,093 Speaker 13: sponge cake and that sort of thing. No, it's absolutely beautiful. 577 00:30:31,133 --> 00:30:33,253 Speaker 13: I just keep on making this as a as a 578 00:30:33,253 --> 00:30:36,653 Speaker 13: birthday cake or celebration cake. So here you go, and 579 00:30:36,693 --> 00:30:38,413 Speaker 13: I'm going to give a couple of really good cheats. 580 00:30:38,453 --> 00:30:40,853 Speaker 13: So the first cheat is you don't need to make 581 00:30:40,893 --> 00:30:43,293 Speaker 13: your own sponge cake. You could buy a trifle sponge 582 00:30:43,333 --> 00:30:46,573 Speaker 13: from the supermarket. But I'm going to talk to you 583 00:30:46,653 --> 00:30:48,693 Speaker 13: about making a sponge cake. But I've made it with 584 00:30:48,733 --> 00:30:52,533 Speaker 13: both and it's equally well received. So throw your raven 585 00:30:52,613 --> 00:30:57,413 Speaker 13: on at one hundred and seventy degrees celsius on fan 586 00:30:57,533 --> 00:31:00,973 Speaker 13: bake and then let's make a little sponge cake. So 587 00:31:01,093 --> 00:31:03,813 Speaker 13: grease two round cake tins. I've used ones that are 588 00:31:03,813 --> 00:31:06,733 Speaker 13: about anywhere between twenty and twenty three cents to meat. 589 00:31:06,813 --> 00:31:09,613 Speaker 13: Is this cake will be fine. So that's the size 590 00:31:09,613 --> 00:31:12,213 Speaker 13: of your cake tins, and dust them with flour. Now 591 00:31:12,213 --> 00:31:14,013 Speaker 13: you want your button ice and soft. I've got one 592 00:31:14,093 --> 00:31:17,613 Speaker 13: hundred and thirty grams of unsalted butter. If you've only 593 00:31:17,613 --> 00:31:19,653 Speaker 13: got salted, for goodness sake, that's fine. I mean, butter 594 00:31:19,693 --> 00:31:21,533 Speaker 13: is such a fortune these days. Any sort of butter 595 00:31:21,653 --> 00:31:24,253 Speaker 13: is a luxury. Beat the butter until it's really lovely 596 00:31:24,293 --> 00:31:26,213 Speaker 13: and soft with the sugar. One cup of cast of 597 00:31:26,293 --> 00:31:29,533 Speaker 13: sugar and two teaspoons with vanilla extract. And you want 598 00:31:29,573 --> 00:31:32,133 Speaker 13: that to be really light and fluffy. That is the 599 00:31:32,213 --> 00:31:34,253 Speaker 13: key that you know, write this food stage for a 600 00:31:34,293 --> 00:31:37,133 Speaker 13: decent sponge cake. You've got three large eggs that we're 601 00:31:37,133 --> 00:31:39,413 Speaker 13: going to add to that creamed butter and sugar. Add 602 00:31:39,453 --> 00:31:41,413 Speaker 13: them one at a time, mixing them kind of really 603 00:31:41,413 --> 00:31:44,213 Speaker 13: well in between, and by really well I probably mean 604 00:31:44,253 --> 00:31:48,613 Speaker 13: about beating for about twenty seconds after each egg addition. 605 00:31:49,293 --> 00:31:50,933 Speaker 13: Then you want to stir in some flour, and I've 606 00:31:51,013 --> 00:31:53,693 Speaker 13: used two in the food cups of self raising flour. 607 00:31:54,013 --> 00:31:57,093 Speaker 13: Obviously you could use plain flour and add some baking powder, 608 00:31:57,373 --> 00:32:00,973 Speaker 13: probably two teaspoons of baking powder. A good pinch of 609 00:32:01,013 --> 00:32:03,333 Speaker 13: salt gives it some balance. I wouldn't miss that out. 610 00:32:03,493 --> 00:32:05,293 Speaker 13: And I've got a cup of milk, so I stir 611 00:32:05,373 --> 00:32:09,173 Speaker 13: in the flour and the milk kind of alternately. And 612 00:32:09,213 --> 00:32:11,293 Speaker 13: you just don't want to overmix a sponge cake because 613 00:32:11,333 --> 00:32:14,213 Speaker 13: that gets the glutens and the flour to start stretching, 614 00:32:14,213 --> 00:32:16,933 Speaker 13: and that'll make a tough cake. I've got two cake 615 00:32:16,973 --> 00:32:19,573 Speaker 13: tins here, so I want to divide my batter one 616 00:32:19,653 --> 00:32:22,013 Speaker 13: thod and one and two thirds in another. You do 617 00:32:22,133 --> 00:32:24,773 Speaker 13: not have to be too careful with this. You want 618 00:32:24,773 --> 00:32:27,413 Speaker 13: to bake for about twenty five minutes. The thicker one 619 00:32:27,493 --> 00:32:31,093 Speaker 13: will probably take about five to seven minutes longer. And 620 00:32:31,133 --> 00:32:33,853 Speaker 13: a sponge cake is cooked Francesca when you can press 621 00:32:33,853 --> 00:32:37,253 Speaker 13: it just gently and it springs back easily to the touch, 622 00:32:37,573 --> 00:32:40,453 Speaker 13: So I'd kind of start checking my cake from about 623 00:32:40,453 --> 00:32:43,573 Speaker 13: twenty three minutes after that time. It's not going to 624 00:32:43,613 --> 00:32:45,373 Speaker 13: sink when you open the oven. If you start opening 625 00:32:45,413 --> 00:32:48,653 Speaker 13: the oven earlier, you're in trouble. And I've probably made 626 00:32:48,693 --> 00:32:51,173 Speaker 13: all that sound complicated, but it's super easy. You want 627 00:32:51,173 --> 00:32:53,253 Speaker 13: to leave these to call for twelve to fifteen minutes 628 00:32:53,293 --> 00:32:55,733 Speaker 13: and then turn them out of their cake tins on 629 00:32:55,773 --> 00:32:58,453 Speaker 13: a wy wrap to make sure that they are called completely. 630 00:32:58,773 --> 00:33:01,413 Speaker 13: If they've risen up too much. Some people's ovens do that, 631 00:33:01,413 --> 00:33:02,933 Speaker 13: that's fine, and they've got a bit of a dome 632 00:33:02,973 --> 00:33:04,893 Speaker 13: on them. You can level that off with a big 633 00:33:04,933 --> 00:33:06,973 Speaker 13: bread knife. So you just want to take that sponge 634 00:33:07,013 --> 00:33:08,893 Speaker 13: off there because we want to layer these up, and 635 00:33:08,933 --> 00:33:11,773 Speaker 13: the thickest sponge we're going to divide that into two layers, 636 00:33:11,813 --> 00:33:14,573 Speaker 13: so we've got three layers of cake. Here we go 637 00:33:14,613 --> 00:33:18,773 Speaker 13: in terms of assembly, super easy. Mix some icing sugar. 638 00:33:19,173 --> 00:33:21,253 Speaker 13: I've got one and a half cups of icing sugar 639 00:33:21,813 --> 00:33:25,573 Speaker 13: with about thirty grams of melted or really soft butter 640 00:33:26,453 --> 00:33:31,213 Speaker 13: and half and about three tablespoons of boiling water. I've 641 00:33:31,293 --> 00:33:34,653 Speaker 13: used half a cup of raspberries, and I've used frozen 642 00:33:34,733 --> 00:33:37,053 Speaker 13: raspberries which I've defrosted, and you want to press those 643 00:33:37,093 --> 00:33:39,693 Speaker 13: through a sieve Francesca so that you don't get any 644 00:33:39,733 --> 00:33:41,693 Speaker 13: of the seeds in there. But you've got this beautiful 645 00:33:41,813 --> 00:33:43,853 Speaker 13: juice and add that to the icing, and then you 646 00:33:43,933 --> 00:33:46,653 Speaker 13: want to mix that together until you get a really smooth, 647 00:33:46,893 --> 00:33:49,573 Speaker 13: very ruddy icing. Add a bit more water if you 648 00:33:49,613 --> 00:33:53,213 Speaker 13: need to. Here's my second hack. You know that wonderful 649 00:33:53,213 --> 00:33:57,293 Speaker 13: company Fresh Airs that dehydrates all of the fruit, yes, palms. 650 00:33:56,973 --> 00:33:57,333 Speaker 2: And all of that. 651 00:33:57,413 --> 00:34:01,173 Speaker 13: Yeah, they do an icing. They do a raspberry icing. 652 00:34:01,413 --> 00:34:03,493 Speaker 13: Also do a strawberry one, but the raspberry icing is 653 00:34:03,533 --> 00:34:05,813 Speaker 13: what you're looking for, and it's in the same pouches 654 00:34:05,853 --> 00:34:08,333 Speaker 13: and most soupit markets. It's not an ad. I just 655 00:34:08,413 --> 00:34:11,333 Speaker 13: absolutely love this and it's got everything you need. You 656 00:34:11,333 --> 00:34:13,893 Speaker 13: just add boiling water to it. So that's a really 657 00:34:13,973 --> 00:34:15,973 Speaker 13: nice little hat because they use fresh raspberries and neck 658 00:34:15,973 --> 00:34:19,653 Speaker 13: because we really want the tartness for this cake. Anyway, 659 00:34:19,693 --> 00:34:22,493 Speaker 13: pour this beautiful running icing out onto a shallow dinner plate, 660 00:34:22,733 --> 00:34:25,053 Speaker 13: and on another dinner plate, you want about one and 661 00:34:25,053 --> 00:34:28,573 Speaker 13: a half cups of coconut thread desiccated all thread doesn't 662 00:34:28,573 --> 00:34:31,253 Speaker 13: really matter.

I 859 00:45:07,253 --> 00:45:11,693 Speaker 14: was battling a lot of I guess things in my 860 00:45:11,813 --> 00:45:16,013 Speaker 14: domestic life that weren't very balanced and weren't Yeah, we're 861 00:45:16,013 --> 00:45:19,133 Speaker 14: out of We're really out of balance, and I was 862 00:45:19,173 --> 00:45:22,453 Speaker 14: fighting these kind of power dynamics and just not really 863 00:45:22,493 --> 00:45:25,853 Speaker 14: able to win. As a young woman making music and 864 00:45:26,413 --> 00:45:29,093 Speaker 14: navigating the world, I didn't really have the skill set 865 00:45:29,173 --> 00:45:32,733 Speaker 14: to know how to battle what I was going through, 866 00:45:32,773 --> 00:45:35,893 Speaker 14: and it took me, really it took me stepping away 867 00:45:35,893 --> 00:45:38,613 Speaker 14: from music and sort of moving cities to kind of 868 00:45:39,213 --> 00:45:43,813 Speaker 14: find myself again. It was a really slow journey to 869 00:45:44,493 --> 00:45:47,933 Speaker 14: come back into myself to then be able to make 870 00:45:48,053 --> 00:45:50,973 Speaker 14: music and get it out there again. It's a I 871 00:45:50,973 --> 00:45:55,013 Speaker 14: feel like this job is quite I guess like spiritual 872 00:45:55,093 --> 00:45:57,053 Speaker 14: or something like. I do have to be quite in 873 00:45:57,093 --> 00:46:00,053 Speaker 14: touch with myself and my intuition just to be able 874 00:46:00,093 --> 00:46:00,693 Speaker 14: to do my job. 875 00:46:00,773 --> 00:46:01,133 Speaker 8: And if I. 876 00:46:02,693 --> 00:46:04,773 Speaker 14: If I'm losing touch with myself, it's really hard to 877 00:46:04,853 --> 00:46:07,973 Speaker 14: make decisions and put myself out there and put myself 878 00:46:07,973 --> 00:46:10,973 Speaker 14: on a stage if I'm not feeling in my own frame. 879 00:46:11,133 --> 00:46:13,533 Speaker 14: So it's been a long time coming back into my 880 00:46:13,573 --> 00:46:15,693 Speaker 14: own frame after some of the things I went through. 881 00:46:16,053 --> 00:46:18,253 Speaker 2: I was talking to mel Parsons recently and she, you know, 882 00:46:18,293 --> 00:46:20,373 Speaker 2: she did making point she went, writing songs is actually 883 00:46:20,373 --> 00:46:24,813 Speaker 2: really hard. Oh yeah, you know, if you're not in 884 00:46:24,893 --> 00:46:28,413 Speaker 2: the right place or space or you know, it's hard anyway. 885 00:46:29,373 --> 00:46:34,373 Speaker 14: Yeah, yeah, oh, it really is. It's like a really 886 00:46:34,493 --> 00:46:37,333 Speaker 14: psychological battle, like you've got to let it. You've got 887 00:46:37,373 --> 00:46:39,293 Speaker 14: to let it flow, you can't force it, but you 888 00:46:39,373 --> 00:46:41,813 Speaker 14: also do have to sit down and work. So it's 889 00:46:41,813 --> 00:46:46,373 Speaker 14: like this really fine balance between Yeah, just just flowing, 890 00:46:46,893 --> 00:46:50,533 Speaker 14: but also being disciplined enough to let it flow. So 891 00:46:51,053 --> 00:46:54,173 Speaker 14: it's yeah, I find it really I find it really trucky, 892 00:46:54,333 --> 00:46:57,053 Speaker 14: and when a song comes comes through it, it's like 893 00:46:57,693 --> 00:47:00,213 Speaker 14: you've struck gold, you know, But it doesn't always show up, 894 00:47:00,253 --> 00:47:02,693 Speaker 14: and sometimes you're like, oh, well that was a waste 895 00:47:02,733 --> 00:47:04,453 Speaker 14: of time and what am I doing with my life? 896 00:47:05,733 --> 00:47:08,453 Speaker 2: Emilia? The sound and Soft Power is a lot bolder 897 00:47:08,453 --> 00:47:11,413 Speaker 2: than your debut. How did your approach to creating this 898 00:47:11,493 --> 00:47:13,173 Speaker 2: album differ from before? 899 00:47:14,933 --> 00:47:19,893 Speaker 14: Oh? So, I guess I've always done like bedroom pop music, 900 00:47:19,933 --> 00:47:22,773 Speaker 14: and I've kind of always made music in my bedroom, 901 00:47:22,893 --> 00:47:24,933 Speaker 14: and with that comes like a bit more of a 902 00:47:24,973 --> 00:47:30,493 Speaker 14: low fire sound, and I, you know, my first record, 903 00:47:30,533 --> 00:47:33,573 Speaker 14: Morning Side, did quite well, and I started to find 904 00:47:33,573 --> 00:47:37,013 Speaker 14: myself on these bigger stages because of how well my 905 00:47:37,093 --> 00:47:39,893 Speaker 14: career was going, and I guess that kind of inspired 906 00:47:40,493 --> 00:47:43,453 Speaker 14: the next record, as I thought, I'd love to make 907 00:47:43,533 --> 00:47:46,653 Speaker 14: music that actually suited the stage more and suited these 908 00:47:47,733 --> 00:47:50,973 Speaker 14: venues I was playing because they were getting larger and 909 00:47:51,013 --> 00:47:54,493 Speaker 14: my music was still quite small in bedroom. So Soft 910 00:47:54,533 --> 00:47:58,173 Speaker 14: Power I was really trying to lean into a more expansive, 911 00:47:58,933 --> 00:48:05,693 Speaker 14: open cinematic sound while still retaining this like bedroom like quality. 912 00:48:05,813 --> 00:48:08,573 Speaker 14: So I do kind of joke that Soft Power is 913 00:48:08,613 --> 00:48:11,453 Speaker 14: like a bedroom stadium records, Like I've I tried to 914 00:48:11,493 --> 00:48:12,653 Speaker 14: straddle both on it. 915 00:48:13,613 --> 00:48:15,613 Speaker 2: You know, it's really interesting you say that because the 916 00:48:15,653 --> 00:48:18,733 Speaker 2: coming time made to my producer was this would just 917 00:48:18,773 --> 00:48:21,573 Speaker 2: be so awesome live. You know, I'm you know, to 918 00:48:22,293 --> 00:48:25,213 Speaker 2: to hear this album played live. Was it fun to 919 00:48:25,213 --> 00:48:28,613 Speaker 2: be able to take it from you know that? Did 920 00:48:28,613 --> 00:48:31,133 Speaker 2: you enjoy that process of taking it from an album 921 00:48:31,173 --> 00:48:32,573 Speaker 2: from the bedroom to the stage. 922 00:48:33,693 --> 00:48:37,453 Speaker 14: Yeah, I mean I have really because I sort of 923 00:48:37,493 --> 00:48:40,493 Speaker 14: did well on the internet and I'm an introverted person 924 00:48:40,533 --> 00:48:43,493 Speaker 14: and a kind of just like you know, make music 925 00:48:43,533 --> 00:48:45,813 Speaker 14: in my bedroom and spend far too many hours on 926 00:48:45,853 --> 00:48:51,973 Speaker 14: my own. It has been a real big transition, not 927 00:48:52,133 --> 00:48:55,813 Speaker 14: just getting the music into a live setting and everything, 928 00:48:55,813 --> 00:48:59,973 Speaker 14: but also myself out of my bedroom and like onto 929 00:49:00,013 --> 00:49:02,933 Speaker 14: the road and touring and in front of people and socializing. 930 00:49:02,973 --> 00:49:07,453 Speaker 14: And yeah, it has been, it has been.

This will be my first time doing 994 00:52:21,013 --> 00:52:23,493 Speaker 14: like an outdoor antitheater tour, so a lot of these 995 00:52:23,573 --> 00:52:27,133 Speaker 14: venues that we're playing will be like it'll be Midsummer, 996 00:52:27,213 --> 00:52:30,893 Speaker 14: and I guess it will be kind of different in 997 00:52:30,933 --> 00:52:33,693 Speaker 14: that sense, just like you know, we're playing Red Rocks 998 00:52:33,693 --> 00:52:40,413 Speaker 14: and Denver like quite big, outdoor, iconic venue, So I 999 00:52:40,493 --> 00:52:43,733 Speaker 14: think I guess that will be one point of difference. 1000 00:52:43,813 --> 00:52:46,373 Speaker 14: But other than that, like when we do head on 1001 00:52:46,453 --> 00:52:50,213 Speaker 14: like a more regular your phase it Day's headline tour 1002 00:52:50,533 --> 00:52:52,373 Speaker 14: in the US or headline shows in the US, it 1003 00:52:52,413 --> 00:52:55,773 Speaker 14: is actually quite similar. Like it's actually, you know, when 1004 00:52:55,773 --> 00:52:58,013 Speaker 14: you talk to people afterwards, it's just the accents different, 1005 00:52:58,053 --> 00:53:00,613 Speaker 14: But other than that, it's actually it is really similar. 1006 00:53:01,493 --> 00:53:03,813 Speaker 2: And really just finally, when you're making music, do you 1007 00:53:03,853 --> 00:53:05,853 Speaker 2: think about the way your audience is going to relate 1008 00:53:06,053 --> 00:53:07,813 Speaker 2: or do you make it and put it out there 1009 00:53:07,853 --> 00:53:10,333 Speaker 2: in the world for people to enjoy however they and 1010 00:53:10,453 --> 00:53:12,293 Speaker 2: interpret it, interpret however they like. 1011 00:53:13,813 --> 00:53:16,093 Speaker 14: Yeah, I mean I usually just try, Like I mean, 1012 00:53:16,133 --> 00:53:19,813 Speaker 14: I have tried to write in a way of like, oh, 1013 00:53:19,893 --> 00:53:22,613 Speaker 14: this will go down well, but it doesn't really work. 1014 00:53:23,053 --> 00:53:25,453 Speaker 14: But it doesn't really. I don't find it very conducive 1015 00:53:25,453 --> 00:53:28,733 Speaker 14: to my creativity to think too much about the audience 1016 00:53:28,853 --> 00:53:31,013 Speaker 14: early on. I just sort of try to leave that 1017 00:53:31,733 --> 00:53:36,413 Speaker 14: later in the creative process. I off. Now, I try 1018 00:53:36,453 --> 00:53:39,253 Speaker 14: my best to just write for myself. And I feel 1019 00:53:39,293 --> 00:53:41,333 Speaker 14: like you hear that all the time, but I I 1020 00:53:41,373 --> 00:53:44,853 Speaker 14: really do try to just write what makes me feel 1021 00:53:45,173 --> 00:53:48,173 Speaker 14: excited and what's resonating with me, because I know that 1022 00:53:48,893 --> 00:53:52,413 Speaker 14: if I trust that and follow that, it will resonate 1023 00:53:52,453 --> 00:53:54,613 Speaker 14: with other people. So I do try to just pull 1024 00:53:54,613 --> 00:53:57,853 Speaker 14: it in and and and follow my nose on on 1025 00:53:58,013 --> 00:54:01,493 Speaker 14: what feels exciting to me. And yeah, and that's that's 1026 00:54:01,493 --> 00:54:05,293 Speaker 14: how I've been working lately anyway, and it's been it's been, yeah, 1027 00:54:05,413 --> 00:54:07,053 Speaker 14: very conducive to creativity. 1028 00:54:07,133 --> 00:54:10,853 Speaker 2: I'm finding Amelia best of luck with the tour in 1029 00:54:10,893 --> 00:54:14,053 Speaker 2: the US and congratulations on the big wins this week. 1030 00:54:14,173 --> 00:54:17,053 Speaker 14: Well done, Thank you, Francisca, thanks for having me. 1031 00:54:17,733 --> 00:54:21,413 Speaker 2: That was Amelia Murray, who you may know as phaser days. 1032 00:54:21,733 --> 00:54:25,573 Speaker 2: Go and have and listen to her gorgeous album Soft Power. 1033 00:54:26,013 --> 00:54:29,693 Speaker 2: She won Album of the Year and also Best Seller 1034 00:54:29,893 --> 00:54:33,413 Speaker 2: Artist at the Artro Music Awards this week.

Good morning, Tara, 1047 00:55:09,093 --> 00:55:13,253 Speaker 2: Good morning Okay, I have delved into Netflix's new show 1048 00:55:13,333 --> 00:55:17,893 Speaker 2: Department Q, basically because I love Matthew Good and also 1049 00:55:17,893 --> 00:55:19,733 Speaker 2: I love listening to Scottish accents. 1050 00:55:20,773 --> 00:55:21,533 Speaker 5: Yeah, what did you think? 1051 00:55:21,573 --> 00:55:22,253 Speaker 15: Did you enjoy it? 1052 00:55:22,413 --> 00:55:22,653 Speaker 11: Yeah? 1053 00:55:22,653 --> 00:55:24,533 Speaker 2: I did. I think it takes a little while to 1054 00:55:24,533 --> 00:55:27,573 Speaker 2: get into. I mean, Matthew Good is definitely very committed 1055 00:55:27,613 --> 00:55:29,773 Speaker 2: to the role. He looks as tortured as his character 1056 00:55:29,813 --> 00:55:32,253 Speaker 2: should be, and he's not a particularly nice guy. But 1057 00:55:32,373 --> 00:55:34,573 Speaker 2: as we proceed, I can see that you're going to 1058 00:55:34,653 --> 00:55:36,333 Speaker 2: kind of warm to him. Would that be fair? 1059 00:55:36,493 --> 00:55:36,693 Speaker 5: Yeah? 1060 00:55:36,813 --> 00:55:40,973 Speaker 15: Yeah, absolutely. This is a new Scottish crime thriller. It's 1061 00:55:41,013 --> 00:55:43,813 Speaker 15: made by the team behind The Queen's Gambit and it 1062 00:55:43,893 --> 00:55:46,573 Speaker 15: is about a police detective called Carl Mark who's played 1063 00:55:46,573 --> 00:55:50,133 Speaker 15: by Matthew Good. And Mark is recovering from a traumatic 1064 00:55:50,213 --> 00:55:53,253 Speaker 15: incident on the job. He's not well liked, he's difficult 1065 00:55:53,253 --> 00:55:55,533 Speaker 15: to work with, he's suffering a lot of guilt and 1066 00:55:55,573 --> 00:55:57,453 Speaker 15: when he comes back to work, he's sent to the 1067 00:55:57,453 --> 00:56:00,933 Speaker 15: basement and given a new job, working completely on his 1068 00:56:00,973 --> 00:56:03,293 Speaker 15: own as the head of Department Q, which is a 1069 00:56:03,813 --> 00:56:09,453 Speaker 15: new cold case units a publicity stunt basically to reassure 1070 00:56:09,493 --> 00:56:12,333 Speaker 15: the public that the police are taking crime seriously, and 1071 00:56:12,373 --> 00:56:16,373 Speaker 15: so it's not expected to succeed. But Mark builds this 1072 00:56:16,693 --> 00:56:20,293 Speaker 15: team of colleagues who like him, do things differently, and 1073 00:56:20,333 --> 00:56:24,093 Speaker 15: they start investigating this four year old cold case involving 1074 00:56:24,093 --> 00:56:27,013 Speaker 15: a young lawyer. So there's two storylines running through here. 1075 00:56:27,453 --> 00:56:29,533 Speaker 15: But it did grab me from the very first second. 1076 00:56:30,133 --> 00:56:34,293 Speaker 15: It's got energy, it's dark and gritty. There's some brilliant 1077 00:56:34,373 --> 00:56:38,413 Speaker 15: sarcastic humor in this, and as you say, it does 1078 00:56:38,453 --> 00:56:42,053 Speaker 15: take its time and sort of carefully crafting that world 1079 00:56:42,093 --> 00:56:45,933 Speaker 15: of people and places and moments that you get pulled into. 1080 00:56:46,373 --> 00:56:48,293 Speaker 15: So it's a crime thriller, but I think it's going 1081 00:56:48,333 --> 00:56:51,813 Speaker 15: to kind of turn into a very moody, gothic psychological 1082 00:56:51,893 --> 00:56:56,373 Speaker 15: thriller as well. And perfect timing for the long wintery 1083 00:56:56,573 --> 00:56:58,973 Speaker 15: weekend at nine episodes, and I think if you like 1084 00:56:59,333 --> 00:57:01,973 Speaker 15: Line of Duty, if you like Slow Horses or Luther, 1085 00:57:02,333 --> 00:57:03,573 Speaker 15: I think you'll like this one as well. 1086 00:57:04,693 --> 00:57:04,933 Speaker 13: Yeah. 1087 00:57:05,173 --> 00:57:07,013 Speaker 2: I like the structure of it as well. I don't 1088 00:57:07,013 --> 00:57:08,413 Speaker 2: want to give away too much about the plot, but 1089 00:57:08,413 --> 00:57:10,533 Speaker 2: the way that those two storylines were kind of working together, 1090 00:57:10,613 --> 00:57:12,413 Speaker 2: I didn't see y one coming, so I like that 1091 00:57:12,493 --> 00:57:15,173 Speaker 2: as well. Hey, the Better Sister is starting on Prime Video. 1092 00:57:15,333 --> 00:57:18,893 Speaker 2: Awesome cast Jessica Bill and Elizabeth Banks, and I've only 1093 00:57:18,933 --> 00:57:20,973 Speaker 2: watched the first episode of this, but what I liked 1094 00:57:20,973 --> 00:57:23,973 Speaker 2: about it was, I have no idea whether this is 1095 00:57:24,013 --> 00:57:26,453 Speaker 2: going to go because all the characters seem dodgy. 1096 00:57:26,533 --> 00:57:30,053 Speaker 15: Tara, Yes, it's so true, and it's kind of tapping 1097 00:57:30,053 --> 00:57:33,173 Speaker 15: into that white lotus thing that we're getting a lot 1098 00:57:33,173 --> 00:57:35,653 Speaker 15: of it at the moment, where you know, it's glossy 1099 00:57:35,693 --> 00:57:38,293 Speaker 15: and beautiful, and it's about the lives of wealthy people 1100 00:57:38,373 --> 00:57:42,213 Speaker 15: who outwardly everything is perfect, but underneath it's all kind 1101 00:57:42,253 --> 00:57:44,853 Speaker 15: of terrible and there's lots of secrets. But your Sisters 1102 00:57:44,893 --> 00:57:48,533 Speaker 15: Jessica Bill and Elizabeth Banks, who play two estrange sisters 1103 00:57:48,533 --> 00:57:51,733 Speaker 15: who are forced to reconcile after one of their husbands 1104 00:57:51,813 --> 00:57:55,533 Speaker 15: is murdered. Chloe is a high powered media executive. She's 1105 00:57:55,613 --> 00:57:58,613 Speaker 15: very successful and she's in the public eye and her 1106 00:57:58,653 --> 00:58:02,213 Speaker 15: sister Nicki is a recovering at it. And when Chloe's 1107 00:58:02,253 --> 00:58:04,693 Speaker 15: husband is killed one night, the two sisters have to 1108 00:58:04,733 --> 00:58:07,893 Speaker 15: sort out their own issues in order to protect themselves 1109 00:58:07,973 --> 00:58:10,773 Speaker 15: and their family from being framed from the crime. But 1110 00:58:10,813 --> 00:58:13,093 Speaker 15: there's a bit of ambiguity in there. In that first 1111 00:58:13,093 --> 00:58:17,573 Speaker 15: episode about about whether what we're seeing is true, and 1112 00:58:17,653 --> 00:58:20,973 Speaker 15: I think I found the key to this was suspending 1113 00:58:21,013 --> 00:58:22,973 Speaker 15: belief a bit. The first episode I felt was a 1114 00:58:23,013 --> 00:58:26,013 Speaker 15: little bit slow, again, taking its time to set things up. 1115 00:58:26,253 --> 00:58:28,213 Speaker 15: And if you've watched a lot of crime dramas, there's 1116 00:58:28,213 --> 00:58:31,053 Speaker 15: some distracting stuff going on here, people walking through the 1117 00:58:31,093 --> 00:58:34,493 Speaker 15: crime scene and hiding evidence in unusual ways. 1118 00:58:35,253 --> 00:58:35,973 Speaker 14: But there is some. 1119 00:58:35,853 --> 00:58:36,733 Speaker 5: Good stuff how here. 1120 00:58:36,773 --> 00:58:39,653 Speaker 15: Jessica Beale and Elizabeth Banks are both great in this. 1121 00:58:39,733 --> 00:58:41,173 Speaker 15: You know what I mean when I say yeah, I 1122 00:58:41,493 --> 00:58:43,893 Speaker 15: love and love it. Yeah, And I think this is 1123 00:58:43,933 --> 00:58:45,773 Speaker 15: probably a show that you can put on and admire 1124 00:58:45,813 --> 00:58:47,733 Speaker 15: the clothes and the nice houses and the beach views 1125 00:58:47,773 --> 00:58:49,733 Speaker 15: and just sort of be slowly pulled into it and 1126 00:58:49,773 --> 00:58:51,093 Speaker 15: not have to think too hard about it. 1127 00:58:51,293 --> 00:58:52,653 Speaker 2: And you got a comedy for us. 1128 00:58:53,733 --> 00:58:56,493 Speaker 15: Yes, this is Brassak. This is a British comedy. It's 1129 00:58:56,493 --> 00:58:59,213 Speaker 15: not a new show. It's been around since twenty nineteen, 1130 00:58:59,293 --> 00:59:01,733 Speaker 15: but five seasons of it have just landed on Netflix. 1131 00:59:01,733 --> 00:59:03,693 Speaker 15: So I think this is going to give that show 1132 00:59:03,773 --> 00:59:05,693 Speaker 15: a whole new audience in New Zealand. It's already in 1133 00:59:06,133 --> 00:59:09,853 Speaker 15: the endlist already, but it's set in a small village 1134 00:59:09,973 --> 00:59:12,333 Speaker 15: in the north of England, and it's about five young 1135 00:59:12,813 --> 00:59:16,013 Speaker 15: working class men who have all grown up together. They're 1136 00:59:16,053 --> 00:59:17,253 Speaker 15: stuck in this small town. 1137 00:59:17,493 --> 00:59:18,013 Speaker 5: They're broke. 1138 00:59:18,373 --> 00:59:20,773 Speaker 15: There isn't any jobs and so they spend their days 1139 00:59:20,773 --> 00:59:24,533 Speaker 15: doing petty crimes, things like stealing Shetland ponies to order. 1140 00:59:25,093 --> 00:59:26,853 Speaker 15: And one of the friends wants to leave their village 1141 00:59:26,853 --> 00:59:28,733 Speaker 15: and go off and do bigger and better things, and 1142 00:59:28,773 --> 00:59:30,973 Speaker 15: it makes the others start to question what they want 1143 00:59:30,973 --> 00:59:32,973 Speaker 15: to do with their lives. Now, I will say this 1144 00:59:33,133 --> 00:59:36,093 Speaker 15: is not a politically correct TV show. It's created by 1145 00:59:36,573 --> 00:59:38,773 Speaker 15: Joe Gilgan, who plays Vinie in This and who was 1146 00:59:38,813 --> 00:59:42,613 Speaker 15: also in This Is England.

Now, good morning, 1206 01:02:56,693 --> 01:02:59,733 Speaker 2: good morning. What's up with Instagram? They're no longer square? 1207 01:03:00,413 --> 01:03:00,693 Speaker 13: Yeah? 1208 01:03:00,733 --> 01:03:02,573 Speaker 6: This is getting a bit much, isn't it. There was 1209 01:03:02,613 --> 01:03:05,373 Speaker 6: a really good time back when tweets for one hundred 1210 01:03:05,373 --> 01:03:09,333 Speaker 6: and forty characters and Instagram images were squares and that 1211 01:03:09,533 --> 01:03:12,293 Speaker 6: was it. You had to be creative within your square, 1212 01:03:12,773 --> 01:03:14,533 Speaker 6: and that was kind of the beauty of it. And 1213 01:03:14,653 --> 01:03:18,853 Speaker 6: now there's reels, and there's slide shows, and there's all 1214 01:03:18,893 --> 01:03:21,453 Speaker 6: sorts of aspect ratios of pictures. Now you might have 1215 01:03:21,573 --> 01:03:24,413 Speaker 6: noticed that they started changing it. They went from squeers 1216 01:03:24,453 --> 01:03:28,333 Speaker 6: recently the sort of taller images, and they've just announced 1217 01:03:28,413 --> 01:03:31,173 Speaker 6: that they are going to now let you put up 1218 01:03:31,733 --> 01:03:34,293 Speaker 6: three by four photos. Now, those are the ones that 1219 01:03:34,333 --> 01:03:37,373 Speaker 6: you typically used to take on ya Kodak camera, right, 1220 01:03:37,893 --> 01:03:39,813 Speaker 6: so you now will be able to put them at 1221 01:03:39,893 --> 01:03:43,453 Speaker 6: that same ratio on Instagram. Now you might be thinking, Paul, 1222 01:03:43,493 --> 01:03:44,693 Speaker 6: that it's just the ratio. 1223 01:03:44,813 --> 01:03:45,413 Speaker 16: Who cares? 1224 01:03:45,453 --> 01:03:48,453 Speaker 6: Why do I think this is interesting? I have a theory, 1225 01:03:48,693 --> 01:03:49,693 Speaker 6: and I give you my theory. 1226 01:03:49,773 --> 01:03:51,533 Speaker 2: Yes please, Okay. 1227 01:03:51,573 --> 01:03:55,133 Speaker 6: So I live in a pretty touristy area of Brooklyn 1228 01:03:55,293 --> 01:03:58,533 Speaker 6: in New York. And what's really interesting is that there's 1229 01:03:58,573 --> 01:04:00,893 Speaker 6: all these tourists that come to New York City with 1230 01:04:01,333 --> 01:04:04,933 Speaker 6: like point and shoot cameras. And I don't mean fancy 1231 01:04:05,093 --> 01:04:08,533 Speaker 6: DSLRs with big lenses. I mean like it's like we've 1232 01:04:08,693 --> 01:04:12,853 Speaker 6: transported ourselves back to two thousand and six and you 1233 01:04:13,013 --> 01:04:15,293 Speaker 6: used to take your digital camera out and you take 1234 01:04:15,333 --> 01:04:18,333 Speaker 6: photos of you and your friends doing stuff. It seems 1235 01:04:18,373 --> 01:04:21,573 Speaker 6: to be back. Do you know why they shoot in 1236 01:04:21,573 --> 01:04:24,013 Speaker 6: four B three? And I think that's the reason why 1237 01:04:24,013 --> 01:04:26,973 Speaker 6: Instagram is doing this. I think there's a resurgence of 1238 01:04:27,493 --> 01:04:29,733 Speaker 6: the point and shoot camera taking place right now. 1239 01:04:29,813 --> 01:04:30,253 Speaker 3: There is. 1240 01:04:30,493 --> 01:04:32,693 Speaker 2: My sixteen year old daughter has gone around our house 1241 01:04:32,693 --> 01:04:34,733 Speaker 2: and gone through all the drawers and found all of 1242 01:04:34,733 --> 01:04:37,133 Speaker 2: our old cameras, which then require us to sort of 1243 01:04:37,173 --> 01:04:40,773 Speaker 2: find batteries or you know, reach charges and then but no, 1244 01:04:40,853 --> 01:04:42,693 Speaker 2: but that's a nightmare because then you've got to find 1245 01:04:42,693 --> 01:04:45,213 Speaker 2: the cable that you know fits thanks to the computer, 1246 01:04:45,373 --> 01:04:47,133 Speaker 2: or you have to find something that the card can 1247 01:04:47,173 --> 01:04:48,853 Speaker 2: go in. And I'm like, can you just do this 1248 01:04:48,893 --> 01:04:51,093 Speaker 2: on your phone? She's like, no, I really need to 1249 01:04:51,173 --> 01:04:53,893 Speaker 2: use this. I want to use this handheld old camera. 1250 01:04:54,053 --> 01:04:54,733 Speaker 13: Yeah. 1251 01:04:54,773 --> 01:04:57,573 Speaker 6: So I was at dinner last week and I'm not 1252 01:04:57,693 --> 01:05:01,053 Speaker 6: kidding the table both in front of us and behind us, 1253 01:05:01,293 --> 01:05:05,413 Speaker 6: we're both taking food photos with appointment shoot. And I'll 1254 01:05:05,413 --> 01:05:08,653 Speaker 6: say what again right now? But you know, we've got 1255 01:05:08,653 --> 01:05:11,693 Speaker 6: AI on one hand, and then we've got old school technology. 1256 01:05:11,893 --> 01:05:14,373 Speaker 6: And maybe that's the reason maybe the kids are rebelling. 1257 01:05:14,533 --> 01:05:16,533 Speaker 2: Yeah, they don't want to make it easy. They don't 1258 01:05:16,533 --> 01:05:17,973 Speaker 2: want to take a phone that, you know, take a 1259 01:05:17,973 --> 01:05:20,333 Speaker 2: photo on their phone that they can immediately post. Maybe 1260 01:05:20,333 --> 01:05:22,853 Speaker 2: they like this process of having to you know. But 1261 01:05:23,093 --> 01:05:24,733 Speaker 2: I get into something. I don't know, I don't know what. 1262 01:05:24,813 --> 01:05:26,293 Speaker 2: I'd sort of looked at my daughter and just went 1263 01:05:26,333 --> 01:05:27,773 Speaker 2: with it. But I didn't actually say to her whine 1264 01:05:27,773 --> 01:05:30,013 Speaker 2: because I just really liked the photos. I'm leaving it 1265 01:05:30,013 --> 01:05:31,373 Speaker 2: to it. But yeah, I think you've hit the nail 1266 01:05:31,373 --> 01:05:34,533 Speaker 2: on the head there. Hey, I'm a little bit concerned. 1267 01:05:35,013 --> 01:05:41,253 Speaker 2: About Gmail and how it's going to start automatically summarizing emails. 1268 01:05:42,733 --> 01:05:46,213 Speaker 6: Yes, and it's coming. They're slowly rolling this out over 1269 01:05:46,213 --> 01:05:49,133 Speaker 6: two weeks. I mean Google has spent I don't know 1270 01:05:49,173 --> 01:05:51,733 Speaker 6: now how many millions of dollars on Gemini, which is 1271 01:05:51,773 --> 01:05:56,133 Speaker 6: the AI fancy thing, and so they obviously trying to 1272 01:05:56,133 --> 01:05:57,853 Speaker 6: get people to use it and try to make it 1273 01:05:57,933 --> 01:06:00,333 Speaker 6: useful for people so they feel like they, you know, 1274 01:06:00,373 --> 01:06:03,173 Speaker 6: they're getting some value out of it, because you're paying 1275 01:06:03,173 --> 01:06:05,933 Speaker 6: for it if you use Google for your work email 1276 01:06:05,973 --> 01:06:08,853 Speaker 6: and call and all that type of thing now, and 1277 01:06:08,933 --> 01:06:12,133 Speaker 6: so like it or not, Google is going to start 1278 01:06:12,173 --> 01:06:15,933 Speaker 6: looking at complex emails, is how they call it. So 1279 01:06:15,973 --> 01:06:18,813 Speaker 6: I guess emails with lots of replies and at the 1280 01:06:18,853 --> 01:06:23,293 Speaker 6: top of the email, it's going to start summarizing that effectively, 1281 01:06:23,373 --> 01:06:25,453 Speaker 6: so you don't have to go and read through all 1282 01:06:25,493 --> 01:06:29,253 Speaker 6: of the sue and finances this and Joe and Hr 1283 01:06:29,373 --> 01:06:31,853 Speaker 6: says that or whatever it is, it's just going to 1284 01:06:31,853 --> 01:06:34,573 Speaker 6: be able to be summarized into one place. And it's 1285 01:06:34,613 --> 01:06:37,133 Speaker 6: currently something you can do manually. But again, here's the 1286 01:06:37,173 --> 01:06:40,253 Speaker 6: interesting part. They're forcing it now to happen, and it's 1287 01:06:40,333 --> 01:06:44,293 Speaker 6: just going to appear and they obviously have so many customers. 1288 01:06:44,293 --> 01:06:45,893 Speaker 6: It takes a while to roll these things out, so 1289 01:06:45,973 --> 01:06:49,053 Speaker 6: it will happen. It'll be on your mobile phone on 1290 01:06:49,173 --> 01:06:51,653 Speaker 6: the Gmail app if you use that for work, and 1291 01:06:52,133 --> 01:06:53,973 Speaker 6: it's going to be rolling out over these next two weeks. 1292 01:06:54,053 --> 01:06:55,493 Speaker 2: Does this mean that you're going to need to be 1293 01:06:55,613 --> 01:06:58,613 Speaker 2: a little bit more to the point and not nuanced 1294 01:06:58,613 --> 01:06:59,493 Speaker 2: to know emails? 1295 01:06:59,813 --> 01:07:01,773 Speaker 13: The opposite.

Was challenged with a lot of wind and rain. 1360 01:10:10,053 --> 01:10:13,253 Speaker 2: Of course, being in the Hawk's Bay, I'm sure that 1361 01:10:13,373 --> 01:10:19,253 Speaker 2: a lot of the wine makers had very difficult times. 1362 01:10:19,533 --> 01:10:24,293 Speaker 19: How is that all recovering, Well, you're quite right. Hawk's 1363 01:10:24,333 --> 01:10:27,053 Speaker 19: Bay did get a lot more rain and wind and 1364 01:10:27,493 --> 01:10:31,613 Speaker 19: weather impacts like Dismond did throughout that growing season. Are 1365 01:10:31,613 --> 01:10:32,293 Speaker 19: they recovering. 1366 01:10:32,373 --> 01:10:32,573 Speaker 8: Yes. 1367 01:10:32,773 --> 01:10:37,533 Speaker 19: Vines have this remarkable ability to have a recovery time, 1368 01:10:38,173 --> 01:10:42,053 Speaker 19: meaning that the following year they're relaxing back into a 1369 01:10:42,093 --> 01:10:44,893 Speaker 19: typical season, and then twenty twenty five has come along 1370 01:10:44,893 --> 01:10:48,653 Speaker 19: and delivered us something special. There are pockets of land 1371 01:10:48,693 --> 01:10:52,173 Speaker 19: and Hawk's Bay that haven't recovered. Some of the other 1372 01:10:52,213 --> 01:10:54,613 Speaker 19: crops that are grown down there, like apple orchards, some 1373 01:10:54,693 --> 01:10:57,933 Speaker 19: of them will never come back again. But vineyards have 1374 01:10:57,973 --> 01:11:01,373 Speaker 19: a wonderful ability or vines have a wonderful ability to 1375 01:11:01,413 --> 01:11:03,493 Speaker 19: recover if you give them the chance and you look 1376 01:11:03,533 --> 01:11:05,733 Speaker 19: after the soil, which is what they're doing. 1377 01:11:06,373 --> 01:11:07,853 Speaker 2: O Cameron. So if we were going to have the 1378 01:11:07,893 --> 01:11:11,493 Speaker 2: perfect meal to enjoy our haha, merlow Worth, what would 1379 01:11:11,493 --> 01:11:12,053 Speaker 2: you recommend? 1380 01:11:13,453 --> 01:11:15,333 Speaker 19: Well, like I said at the beginning, it can go 1381 01:11:15,373 --> 01:11:18,533 Speaker 19: with everything from soup to meat to vegetarian dishes. But 1382 01:11:18,573 --> 01:11:21,933 Speaker 19: what I've suggesting that you think about which a lot 1383 01:11:21,973 --> 01:11:24,373 Speaker 19: of households have, and that is chicken. And if you 1384 01:11:24,453 --> 01:11:28,253 Speaker 19: grab a chicken breast, a leg and ballatine, that meaning 1385 01:11:28,293 --> 01:11:30,853 Speaker 19: that you're pulling the bone out and you're putting something 1386 01:11:30,853 --> 01:11:38,573 Speaker 19: inside and rolling it up. I'm suggesting spinach or sorry, 1387 01:11:38,653 --> 01:11:43,173 Speaker 19: that chicken leg ballatined with spinach, lentils and prunes, and 1388 01:11:43,253 --> 01:11:45,853 Speaker 19: you roll that up, tied up if you like, and 1389 01:11:45,893 --> 01:11:48,053 Speaker 19: then bake it in the oven. If you're not a 1390 01:11:48,093 --> 01:11:51,733 Speaker 19: big fan of lentils, put them on the side instead. 1391 01:11:51,733 --> 01:11:54,133 Speaker 19: If you're not a big fan of prunes, substituted out 1392 01:11:54,173 --> 01:11:57,813 Speaker 19: with dates or raisins or even dried apricots. And what 1393 01:11:57,853 --> 01:12:00,093 Speaker 19: that does is it gives you your head of protein 1394 01:12:00,173 --> 01:12:03,693 Speaker 19: from the chicken, but a lot of fruity undertones and 1395 01:12:03,733 --> 01:12:08,373 Speaker 19: earthy undertones that work remarkably well with one like the haha, merlo. 1396 01:12:08,373 --> 01:12:10,293 Speaker 2: It sounds delicious. Cameraon you a bit of a chef? 1397 01:12:10,333 --> 01:12:10,573 Speaker 3: Are you? 1398 01:12:11,493 --> 01:12:13,853 Speaker 19: I used to be?

I think people don't always think about that. 1416 01:12:51,413 --> 01:12:55,013 Speaker 11: They got, oh it's winter or whatever, which is not 1417 01:12:55,133 --> 01:12:59,773 Speaker 11: until it's any first of may or June, of course, 1418 01:12:59,813 --> 01:13:02,213 Speaker 11: but that's another story. But no, the point is that 1419 01:13:02,613 --> 01:13:06,853 Speaker 11: I always love going to the botanic gardens or actually 1420 01:13:06,893 --> 01:13:09,373 Speaker 11: just walking around my garden because my Julie is a 1421 01:13:09,013 --> 01:13:11,853 Speaker 11: bit of a gardener and she has all sorts of 1422 01:13:11,893 --> 01:13:19,093 Speaker 11: lovely stuff there that is actually flowering now, like such 1423 01:13:19,133 --> 01:13:21,333 Speaker 11: as I'll give you an example, three dahlias. 1424 01:13:22,453 --> 01:13:23,973 Speaker 5: Do you know three daily Dahl. 1425 01:13:24,293 --> 01:13:25,973 Speaker 2: They go, they go tall, don't. 1426 01:13:25,733 --> 01:13:29,573 Speaker 11: They absolutely like four or five meters and then against 1427 01:13:29,653 --> 01:13:33,013 Speaker 11: the blue sky, that exactly against the blue sky that 1428 01:13:33,053 --> 01:13:35,653 Speaker 11: we have at the moment in Canterbury, it looks gorgeous. 1429 01:13:35,693 --> 01:13:39,453 Speaker 11: It's that pinky, pinky color and it is absolutely stunning. 1430 01:13:39,733 --> 01:13:42,933 Speaker 11: And you know what, this is the thing. You don't 1431 01:13:42,973 --> 01:13:45,013 Speaker 11: really need to do much with them. You can prune 1432 01:13:45,053 --> 01:13:47,373 Speaker 11: them if you like. They'll grow back up to the 1433 01:13:47,493 --> 01:13:51,453 Speaker 11: same height next year, no hassles at all. So that's 1434 01:13:51,573 --> 01:13:55,213 Speaker 11: I think that's that's one of my favorites too. Nereenes 1435 01:13:55,333 --> 01:13:58,133 Speaker 11: is another one. Julie has a shiver't load of neurenes 1436 01:13:58,133 --> 01:14:01,813 Speaker 11: in the garden, bright pink. It's well, you know, I'm 1437 01:14:01,853 --> 01:14:04,893 Speaker 11: not pink, is not me really my color, but boy, 1438 01:14:05,013 --> 01:14:09,613 Speaker 11: it is spectacular. It's beautiful. It's really nice. And here 1439 01:14:09,653 --> 01:14:13,373 Speaker 11: in the porthills where we don't have frost that often 1440 01:14:13,453 --> 01:14:16,813 Speaker 11: or actually at all, almost and you can grow these 1441 01:14:16,813 --> 01:14:20,613 Speaker 11: things still at least May June July no problem. And 1442 01:14:20,693 --> 01:14:23,613 Speaker 11: after that, and especially when it's not too wet, you 1443 01:14:23,613 --> 01:14:26,133 Speaker 11: can then transplant them and deal with them what you like. 1444 01:14:26,253 --> 01:14:28,253 Speaker 2: And they're not so easy, they're not too fussy about 1445 01:14:28,253 --> 01:14:30,693 Speaker 2: your soil quality either, are they No. 1446 01:14:30,693 --> 01:14:34,093 Speaker 11: They have the crappiest soils in the world as long 1447 01:14:34,133 --> 01:14:38,653 Speaker 11: as it drains. This is amazing. So and they've got 1448 01:14:38,693 --> 01:14:42,813 Speaker 11: selvia that is a Mexican bush, says Salvia leucantha, and 1449 01:14:42,853 --> 01:14:45,533 Speaker 11: that really works well in the sun as well, and 1450 01:14:45,613 --> 01:14:48,373 Speaker 11: it flowers up to a meter high. It's beautiful. But 1451 01:14:48,613 --> 01:14:53,373 Speaker 11: here comes the thing. There are still bumblebees pollinating those flowers. 1452 01:14:53,613 --> 01:14:56,173 Speaker 11: And there are not one or two, there are dozens 1453 01:14:56,213 --> 01:14:58,893 Speaker 11: of them. And to me that shows you that that 1454 01:14:58,973 --> 01:15:02,453 Speaker 11: means those bumblebees will be fine for next year when 1455 01:15:02,453 --> 01:15:04,333 Speaker 11: they come out as fertilized queens. 1456 01:15:04,413 --> 01:15:06,293 Speaker 2: Is that a safe? Isn't cooking or not? 1457 01:15:07,533 --> 01:15:07,853 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1458 01:15:08,053 --> 01:15:10,573 Speaker 11: No, not a self d No, No, you don't no, no, no, 1459 01:15:11,053 --> 01:15:13,053 Speaker 11: I don't think you would keep that. It might have 1460 01:15:13,093 --> 01:15:15,733 Speaker 11: a nice smell, I suppose, and you might be able 1461 01:15:15,773 --> 01:15:17,653 Speaker 11: to use it as a bit of an yeah, a 1462 01:15:17,653 --> 01:15:21,733 Speaker 11: bit of an on flavor, but I'm not one hundred 1463 01:15:21,733 --> 01:15:24,653 Speaker 11: percent sure. I wouldn't do it until you've worked it out. 1464 01:15:24,893 --> 01:15:28,453 Speaker 11: I don't know, Okay, I don't think so. Smoke bushes 1465 01:15:28,773 --> 01:15:33,333 Speaker 11: this is another one that's actually I've just been reading 1466 01:15:33,413 --> 01:15:36,173 Speaker 11: up on that. That's something that they've used for a 1467 01:15:36,253 --> 01:15:39,013 Speaker 11: long long time in gardens, and there are so many 1468 01:15:39,053 --> 01:15:42,653 Speaker 11: different species. We've got the purple range like the royal 1469 01:15:42,733 --> 01:15:45,973 Speaker 11: purple and grace, but there's now also lime green ones 1470 01:15:46,453 --> 01:15:49,733 Speaker 11: and this is the time when they leave. They're not 1471 01:15:49,893 --> 01:15:52,173 Speaker 11: kind of falling off yet, but they are doing these 1472 01:15:52,253 --> 01:15:56,573 Speaker 11: autumn color gigs and they will be like that color 1473 01:15:56,733 --> 01:16:00,333 Speaker 11: for another at least two months. So that is really 1474 01:16:00,533 --> 01:16:02,893 Speaker 11: really nice to have in the boott at the bottom 1475 01:16:02,893 --> 01:16:06,733 Speaker 11: of your garden as well. And yeah, and then let's 1476 01:16:06,733 --> 01:16:09,413 Speaker 11: go to some trees by the way, liquid amber, you 1477 01:16:09,453 --> 01:16:13,773 Speaker 11: know that one, Yes, yeah, always good autumn leaves, isn't that. 1478 01:16:15,373 --> 01:16:18,373 Speaker 11: And they take their time to do it, which is 1479 01:16:18,453 --> 01:16:22,693 Speaker 11: really cool. And I'm using it especially with birds around 1480 01:16:23,453 --> 01:16:27,133 Speaker 11: lots of food under the leaves that falling. So when 1481 01:16:27,133 --> 01:16:29,293 Speaker 11: I do bird bending, like what I'm doing right now 1482 01:16:29,613 --> 01:16:32,853 Speaker 11: with some guys that i'm teaching, you'll find that if 1483 01:16:32,853 --> 01:16:35,653 Speaker 11: those leaves fall on the ground, underneath those leaves, you 1484 01:16:35,693 --> 01:16:38,373 Speaker 11: will find all the food that birds need and it 1485 01:16:38,453 --> 01:16:42,133 Speaker 11: is lovely and it is colorful.

Hey a quick congratulations 1509 01:18:44,613 --> 01:18:47,053 Speaker 2: to a Canterbury school. Left Field School came up with 1510 01:18:47,093 --> 01:18:51,053 Speaker 2: this excellent fundraising idea. You know how some parents raise 1511 01:18:51,053 --> 01:18:53,773 Speaker 2: an eyebrow that we go on about the importance of 1512 01:18:53,813 --> 01:18:56,373 Speaker 2: teaching good nutritional habits to our kids and then we 1513 01:18:56,453 --> 01:18:59,453 Speaker 2: let them sell chocolate to raise money for the school. Well, 1514 01:18:59,853 --> 01:19:03,733 Speaker 2: left Field, along with HOCKEYITECA based Westland Milk Products, have 1515 01:19:03,813 --> 01:19:08,253 Speaker 2: got a partnership going and the school is selling butter. 1516 01:19:09,293 --> 01:19:12,493 Speaker 2: They are selling west Gold butter products salted and unsulted 1517 01:19:12,653 --> 01:19:15,373 Speaker 2: four bucks for a two hundred and fifty grand block. 1518 01:19:15,653 --> 01:19:17,893 Speaker 2: You can buy a box of forty packs if you like. 1519 01:19:17,893 --> 01:19:19,453 Speaker 2: It's gonna cost you one hundred and sixty bucks. But 1520 01:19:19,493 --> 01:19:22,133 Speaker 2: that's a pretty good price. It's a competitive price out there. 1521 01:19:22,413 --> 01:19:25,773 Speaker 2: The butter is expensive at the moment now. The school principal, 1522 01:19:25,933 --> 01:19:28,453 Speaker 2: Rob Kevinagho, said the response to the fundraiser from the 1523 01:19:28,493 --> 01:19:33,013 Speaker 2: school community has been pretty overwhelming. To be fair, he said, 1524 01:19:33,053 --> 01:19:35,213 Speaker 2: I must admit I'm kind of surprised. I think I 1525 01:19:35,333 --> 01:19:38,373 Speaker 2: wasn't quite aware of what a popular commodity butter is 1526 01:19:38,413 --> 01:19:41,733 Speaker 2: in this d and age. Someone doesn't do the household chopping. 1527 01:19:42,093 --> 01:19:45,373 Speaker 2: But look, two birds with one stone there providing the 1528 01:19:45,373 --> 01:19:48,213 Speaker 2: public with a commodity, it wants it a decent price, 1529 01:19:48,653 --> 01:19:52,013 Speaker 2: not flogging the chocolate and raising money to help families 1530 01:19:52,173 --> 01:19:54,573 Speaker 2: with the base six when it comes to getting kids 1531 01:19:54,613 --> 01:19:55,053 Speaker 2: to school. 1532 01:19:55,133 --> 01:19:57,813 Speaker 3: So nice work, Francesca. 1533 01:19:58,613 --> 01:19:58,773 Speaker 4: Right. 1534 01:19:58,853 --> 01:20:02,133 Speaker 2: The Department of Conservation is currently asking for public feedback 1535 01:20:02,133 --> 01:20:05,613 Speaker 2: on its Predator Free twenty fifty strategy. One of the 1536 01:20:05,653 --> 01:20:09,493 Speaker 2: big questions they ask is whether feral cats should be 1537 01:20:09,533 --> 01:20:12,293 Speaker 2: added to the target species list along with you know, 1538 01:20:12,293 --> 01:20:14,973 Speaker 2: eurratzy stotesy possums and things. And this is something that 1539 01:20:15,013 --> 01:20:17,253 Speaker 2: Predator Free New Zealand Trust is really passionate about and 1540 01:20:17,333 --> 01:20:20,493 Speaker 2: joining me now is their chief executive, Jesse Morgan. Good morning, 1541 01:20:20,533 --> 01:20:21,973 Speaker 2: Jesse morning. 1542 01:20:21,973 --> 01:20:22,773 Speaker 10: Francesca. 1543 01:20:22,893 --> 01:20:25,093 Speaker 2: Hey, Yeah, how many feral cats are there out there? 1544 01:20:26,333 --> 01:20:29,333 Speaker 10: Well, we actually don't know, which is part of the problem, 1545 01:20:29,373 --> 01:20:32,133 Speaker 10: but estimates are between two and a half million and 1546 01:20:32,253 --> 01:20:35,213 Speaker 10: fourteen million, so there's a lot. There's a huge number 1547 01:20:35,253 --> 01:20:38,693 Speaker 10: of cats in our native bush and our forests that 1548 01:20:38,733 --> 01:20:40,773 Speaker 10: we don't even really see or know about. 1549 01:20:41,053 --> 01:20:42,773 Speaker 2: Potentially fourteen million. 1550 01:20:43,733 --> 01:20:45,893 Speaker 10: Crazy, isn't it? Like so many? 1551 01:20:45,973 --> 01:20:46,933 Speaker 13: We also. 1552 01:20:48,093 --> 01:20:50,933 Speaker 10: This number of owned cats in the world, so per 1553 01:20:50,973 --> 01:20:54,013 Speaker 10: household in the world, so we have about to one 1554 01:20:54,093 --> 01:20:57,413 Speaker 10: point two million owned cats as well to add to that. 1555 01:20:57,493 --> 01:21:02,773 Speaker 10: But yeah, the feral cat numbers are rageous, really, and 1556 01:21:02,133 --> 01:21:04,493 Speaker 10: we don't we don't really have a good handle on 1557 01:21:05,213 --> 01:21:07,333 Speaker 10: the number of cats that are there, but we know 1558 01:21:07,533 --> 01:21:10,773 Speaker 10: people that are spending time working in the bush. They 1559 01:21:10,813 --> 01:21:13,573 Speaker 10: all tell us they just see them everywhere or on 1560 01:21:13,613 --> 01:21:15,733 Speaker 10: their game cameras and stuff. 1561 01:21:15,893 --> 01:21:17,333 Speaker 2: So once upon a time we used to say there 1562 01:21:17,373 --> 01:21:19,733 Speaker 2: were more sheep in New Zealand than there were New Zealanders. 1563 01:21:19,733 --> 01:21:23,613 Speaker 2: So we'll be saying they're all feral cats in New Zealand. 1564 01:21:24,173 --> 01:21:25,493 Speaker 10: We're heading that way definitely. 1565 01:21:26,373 --> 01:21:28,773 Speaker 2: So why are they not on the Predator Free twenty 1566 01:21:28,813 --> 01:21:30,573 Speaker 2: fifty target species list already? 1567 01:21:31,853 --> 01:21:35,413 Speaker 10: Well, when the goal was initially announced in twenty sixteen, 1568 01:21:35,853 --> 01:21:38,453 Speaker 10: I think that New Zealand as a country wasn't really 1569 01:21:38,493 --> 01:21:40,813 Speaker 10: ready for it. We hadn't really had the conversation and 1570 01:21:40,853 --> 01:21:43,333 Speaker 10: we weren't aware of the demage that feral cats were 1571 01:21:43,333 --> 01:21:47,333 Speaker 10: doing to our native species. But that perception has changed 1572 01:21:47,373 --> 01:21:50,333 Speaker 10: in the last kind of ten years. It's hugely shifted 1573 01:21:50,813 --> 01:21:53,973 Speaker 10: and people really understand that feral cats are having a 1574 01:21:54,013 --> 01:21:58,973 Speaker 10: massive impact on our native species, and so there's a 1575 01:21:59,013 --> 01:22:02,933 Speaker 10: willingness now in awareness and a public wants this. 1576 01:22:04,333 --> 01:22:07,133 Speaker 2: What I didn't realize is that these cats not keeping 1577 01:22:07,213 --> 01:22:09,493 Speaker 2: the rats and mice and check as you might expect 1578 01:22:09,533 --> 01:22:09,813 Speaker 2: them to. 1579 01:22:11,933 --> 01:22:14,733 Speaker 3: No, they just can't of them. 1580 01:22:15,173 --> 01:22:19,493 Speaker 10: And the rats can bring quickly that we can't keep 1581 01:22:19,573 --> 01:22:21,253 Speaker 10: up with them. It's the same as rabbits. You know, 1582 01:22:21,333 --> 01:22:24,293 Speaker 10: the feral cats aren't keeping on top of rat numbers either. Actually, 1583 01:22:24,333 --> 01:22:27,493 Speaker 10: what happens is a number of rats and mice and 1584 01:22:27,573 --> 01:22:31,733 Speaker 10: rabbits increase the feral cat numbers because there's more food 1585 01:22:31,733 --> 01:22:35,453 Speaker 10: out there. So yeah, so they can't you know that 1586 01:22:35,893 --> 01:22:37,573 Speaker 10: myth I guess that we grew up with that will 1587 01:22:37,613 --> 01:22:40,373 Speaker 10: have a barm cat and that will keep our mice 1588 01:22:40,453 --> 01:22:42,973 Speaker 10: and rats at bait, isn't isn't true. We've got really 1589 01:22:42,973 --> 01:22:45,333 Speaker 10: good traps and other tools to do that. 1590 01:22:45,453 --> 01:22:47,413 Speaker 2: Now, what kind of damage are they doing? 1591 01:22:49,293 --> 01:22:52,853 Speaker 10: They well, they're an apex predator in New Zealand and 1592 01:22:52,893 --> 01:22:57,013 Speaker 10: so nothing else predates on them. So unless humans control them, 1593 01:22:58,253 --> 01:23:01,693 Speaker 10: nothing else controls their number. But we know that they 1594 01:23:01,893 --> 01:23:06,333 Speaker 10: are found from the you know, from all the way 1595 01:23:06,453 --> 01:23:09,213 Speaker 10: up to our alpine zones, and they hunt for fun. 1596 01:23:09,293 --> 01:23:12,013 Speaker 10: They don't just hunt for hunger and so they they're 1597 01:23:12,333 --> 01:23:19,293 Speaker 10: huge impact our native species duck ya. So of the 1598 01:23:21,693 --> 01:23:23,933 Speaker 10: of the the Nelson Lakes, fifty percent were done by 1599 01:23:24,013 --> 01:23:28,133 Speaker 10: feral cats, the other fifty percent by stouts. Last year, 1600 01:23:28,173 --> 01:23:32,173 Speaker 10: one cat destroyed a whole colony of endangered urn nests 1601 01:23:32,213 --> 01:23:35,693 Speaker 10: on a braided river down on Canterbury. And they eat lizards, 1602 01:23:36,133 --> 01:23:39,013 Speaker 10: they eat bats. There's this famous story of them of 1603 01:23:39,133 --> 01:23:43,533 Speaker 10: one cat clearing out a whole roost of bats outside Oakerney. 1604 01:23:43,853 --> 01:23:46,173 Speaker 10: I think it was about one hundred and ten bats 1605 01:23:46,213 --> 01:23:48,373 Speaker 10: within a week and the cat just kept going back 1606 01:23:48,453 --> 01:23:52,053 Speaker 10: and eating the rats, the bats, sorry, every night until 1607 01:23:52,093 --> 01:23:52,613 Speaker 10: they were gone. 1608 01:23:53,413 --> 01:23:55,613 Speaker 2: Okay, So clearly it's going to make a difference if 1609 01:23:55,653 --> 01:23:58,813 Speaker 2: we add them to the list and humanely remove. 1610 01:23:58,493 --> 01:24:04,373 Speaker 10: Them, yes, will. And by not adding them now, we 1611 01:24:04,413 --> 01:24:06,813 Speaker 10: won't be able to add them to twenty thirty. And 1612 01:24:06,893 --> 01:24:09,773 Speaker 10: so what that means is we're behind the eight ball 1613 01:24:09,893 --> 01:24:14,133 Speaker 10: on the predative free mission, but we're then limiting kind 1614 01:24:14,133 --> 01:24:18,533 Speaker 10: of funding, research, control work in the policy developed development 1615 01:24:18,653 --> 01:24:23,093 Speaker 10: that's needed for us to eradicate feral cats across New Zealand. 1616 01:24:23,413 --> 01:24:26,333 Speaker 2: Okay, So Jesse doc is currently consulting on a strategy. 1617 01:24:26,373 --> 01:24:28,293 Speaker 2: How can people contribute and have essay. 1618 01:24:29,453 --> 01:24:32,413 Speaker 10: Yeah, they can either have this save through the doc 1619 01:24:32,533 --> 01:24:36,293 Speaker 10: website or we've created a quick submit form on our 1620 01:24:36,333 --> 01:24:39,893 Speaker 10: own website that's under predative Free in z dot org 1621 01:24:40,413 --> 01:24:43,573 Speaker 10: forward slash submit and so they can go in there 1622 01:24:43,893 --> 01:24:47,693 Speaker 10: and write their thoughts on adding feral cats to the list. 1623 01:24:48,293 --> 01:24:50,533 Speaker 2: If we take a look just in general at this 1624 01:24:50,733 --> 01:24:53,533 Speaker 2: mission to be predator free in twenty fifty, how are 1625 01:24:53,533 --> 01:24:54,213 Speaker 2: we doing. 1626 01:24:55,773 --> 01:24:56,013 Speaker 6: Well? 1627 01:24:56,013 --> 01:24:59,213 Speaker 10: We're doing pretty well. I mean if you think about 1628 01:24:59,253 --> 01:25:01,493 Speaker 10: when we announce this goal, we had no idea on 1629 01:25:01,533 --> 01:25:03,093 Speaker 10: how we were going to do it. It was a 1630 01:25:03,173 --> 01:25:07,213 Speaker 10: hugely ambitious goal and there was no recipe for us 1631 01:25:07,213 --> 01:25:10,613 Speaker 10: to follow. So we've had these we've funded these large 1632 01:25:10,773 --> 01:25:15,853 Speaker 10: landscape scale projects across the country including Predator Free Wellington, 1633 01:25:16,333 --> 01:25:19,853 Speaker 10: Preda Free Cut and Nucky WYHIKEI and they've made these 1634 01:25:19,973 --> 01:25:23,813 Speaker 10: huge impacts and you know, huge steps forward, I guess 1635 01:25:23,813 --> 01:25:28,253 Speaker 10: in our learning of how we control predators in different environments, 1636 01:25:28,293 --> 01:25:30,773 Speaker 10: because if we're going to do this, we can't just 1637 01:25:30,813 --> 01:25:33,173 Speaker 10: do it on public conservation land. We need to do 1638 01:25:33,213 --> 01:25:38,733 Speaker 10: it on productive landscapes and urban urban areas. So we 1639 01:25:38,813 --> 01:25:41,933 Speaker 10: need to know how to control predators in these different places. 1640 01:25:42,293 --> 01:25:43,493 Speaker 10: So that's going pretty well. 1641 01:25:43,693 --> 01:25:46,653 Speaker 2: And look, Jessie, just sorry. Going back to the feral cats, 1642 01:25:46,693 --> 01:25:48,653 Speaker 2: I should have asked if we are going to remove 1643 01:25:48,693 --> 01:25:50,893 Speaker 2: them humanly, what does that mean, because there can be 1644 01:25:50,893 --> 01:25:53,333 Speaker 2: a little there is often some controversy in the methods 1645 01:25:53,333 --> 01:25:55,133 Speaker 2: that we use to try and control pests. 1646 01:25:56,293 --> 01:25:59,093 Speaker 10: Yeah, so well, Actually, one of the first things we'll 1647 01:25:59,093 --> 01:26:02,453 Speaker 10: need to do if we add feral cats to the 1648 01:26:02,493 --> 01:26:05,253 Speaker 10: list is make sure we have a clear way of 1649 01:26:05,333 --> 01:26:09,093 Speaker 10: identifying an owned cat. Feral cats are really different from 1650 01:26:09,133 --> 01:26:12,333 Speaker 10: our other predators because there also cats are also an 1651 01:26:12,333 --> 01:26:15,933 Speaker 10: important companion animal in New Zealand. So the first thing 1652 01:26:15,973 --> 01:26:18,453 Speaker 10: we'll need to do is have mandatory kind of desexing 1653 01:26:18,493 --> 01:26:21,853 Speaker 10: and microchipping so that our owned cats aren't contributing to 1654 01:26:21,893 --> 01:26:25,053 Speaker 10: the problem and we can identify what as an owned 1655 01:26:25,053 --> 01:26:28,093 Speaker 10: cat and they won't get caught up. At the moment, 1656 01:26:28,133 --> 01:26:32,013 Speaker 10: we can't do any cat control near urban areas because 1657 01:26:32,053 --> 01:26:35,613 Speaker 10: we run that risk of impacting a companion cat, which 1658 01:26:35,613 --> 01:26:38,853 Speaker 10: we don't want to do. So there are a huge 1659 01:26:38,933 --> 01:26:41,813 Speaker 10: number of tools out there. We know that Doc has 1660 01:26:41,853 --> 01:26:45,613 Speaker 10: been working on some baits so feral cats for down 1661 01:26:45,653 --> 01:26:49,213 Speaker 10: on Aucord Islands, so some toxic baits, but there's also 1662 01:26:49,293 --> 01:26:52,013 Speaker 10: a lot of trapping that goes on. Community groups are 1663 01:26:52,013 --> 01:26:56,613 Speaker 10: already doing this across the country, but by not having 1664 01:26:56,693 --> 01:26:59,853 Speaker 10: them on the list, we're limiting the research and development 1665 01:26:59,893 --> 01:27:02,493 Speaker 10: that's going into new tools, and we will need new 1666 01:27:02,533 --> 01:27:03,893 Speaker 10: tools in different areas. 1667 01:27:04,373 --> 01:27:06,813 Speaker 2: Wonderful, Thank you so much, Jesse. That was Jesse Morgan, 1668 01:27:07,293 --> 01:27:12,653 Speaker 2: chief executive, Chief executive of Predator Free New Zealand Trust. 1669 01:27:12,693 --> 01:27:14,293 Speaker 2: If you want some information, you can head there or 1670 01:27:14,333 --> 01:27:16,373 Speaker 2: head to the Department of Conservation if you would like 1671 01:27:16,413 --> 01:27:19,533 Speaker 2: to have your say.

It kind of 1683 01:27:57,253 --> 01:28:00,333 Speaker 2: doesn't matter how often you've been, there's always somewhere new explore. 1684 01:28:00,373 --> 01:28:03,373 Speaker 5: Isn't there so true. Yeah, it's amazing. 1685 01:28:03,373 --> 01:28:06,533 Speaker 20: Over the last twenty years that Queenstown Trails Trust have 1686 01:28:06,613 --> 01:28:11,133 Speaker 20: developed over two hundred kilometers of tracks, which is just insane. 1687 01:28:11,973 --> 01:28:14,693 Speaker 20: And just a few weeks ago adding to the arsenal 1688 01:28:15,133 --> 01:28:20,493 Speaker 20: the Shotover Gorge Trail, which essentially laces up the northern 1689 01:28:20,693 --> 01:28:23,893 Speaker 20: edge of the Waker Tippoo Basin with the wider trails network. 1690 01:28:23,973 --> 01:28:28,573 Speaker 20: So there are some really cool features on this trail, Francesca. 1691 01:28:28,493 --> 01:28:31,413 Speaker 20: But I've got the Hugo Tunnel, which is about as 1692 01:28:31,533 --> 01:28:34,573 Speaker 20: long as a rugby field, and this tunnel was actually 1693 01:28:34,613 --> 01:28:38,093 Speaker 20: constructed over a century ago to divert the river for 1694 01:28:38,173 --> 01:28:42,333 Speaker 20: gold mining. So long story short, they've now repurposed this 1695 01:28:42,413 --> 01:28:46,773 Speaker 20: old tunnel as part of the trail, so you're ripped 1696 01:28:46,773 --> 01:28:50,253 Speaker 20: through this tunnel. Then you've got this brand new Kimmi 1697 01:28:50,453 --> 01:28:54,253 Speaker 20: Ko Bridge strung across the Shotover Gorge. So as you're 1698 01:28:54,293 --> 01:28:57,413 Speaker 20: on fought on bike heading over that bridge, you've got 1699 01:28:57,533 --> 01:29:01,333 Speaker 20: jet boats thundering beneath you. So a cracking new trail 1700 01:29:01,453 --> 01:29:03,013 Speaker 20: to check out down in the area. 1701 01:29:03,253 --> 01:29:06,653 Speaker 2: They send to do this very quickly. Were mind or 1702 01:29:06,693 --> 01:29:09,253 Speaker 2: have these things been taking you know? I have no 1703 01:29:09,333 --> 01:29:11,373 Speaker 2: idea Is it just my perception that they're able to 1704 01:29:11,453 --> 01:29:14,933 Speaker 2: kind of keep creating tracks things relatively swiftly. 1705 01:29:15,093 --> 01:29:18,653 Speaker 20: Yeah, I agree, absolutely, it must be that Southern can 1706 01:29:18,733 --> 01:29:21,573 Speaker 20: do grit I think Francesca. 1707 01:29:21,613 --> 01:29:22,893 Speaker 5: And they've got some other like. 1708 01:29:23,013 --> 01:29:26,573 Speaker 20: Really big trails in the works. One of them that 1709 01:29:26,653 --> 01:29:30,133 Speaker 20: the Covereau Gorge Trail.

Yeah, so that is going to be very 1712 01:29:36,413 --> 01:29:39,253 Speaker 20: very similar to this coverdeau Gorge trail which is currently 1713 01:29:39,253 --> 01:29:42,333 Speaker 20: been constructed that will be open later in the year, 1714 01:29:42,373 --> 01:29:45,733 Speaker 20: which will actually link up with the Lake Dunstan Trail, 1715 01:29:45,853 --> 01:29:50,333 Speaker 20: so you can sort of like cantilever above the water for. 1716 01:29:50,613 --> 01:29:52,533 Speaker 5: Yeah, two of these trails in due course. 1717 01:29:53,213 --> 01:29:55,053 Speaker 2: What's so good about the Lake Hayes Loop. 1718 01:29:56,693 --> 01:29:59,413 Speaker 20: This is a really good starter, Like for people who 1719 01:29:59,493 --> 01:30:03,813 Speaker 20: aren't really into adventure biking as such.

I don't think it's 1820 01:35:43,893 --> 01:35:46,293 Speaker 2: quite the case this morning for me. I'm filling in 1821 01:35:46,333 --> 01:35:50,013 Speaker 2: at last not minute. So we'll just we'll just leave that, right, 1822 01:35:50,533 --> 01:35:52,733 Speaker 2: we won't. We won't throw Jack under the bus and 1823 01:35:53,213 --> 01:35:57,373 Speaker 2: that he's swamming off having a lovely long weekend. Yeah, 1824 01:35:58,133 --> 01:36:00,453 Speaker 2: move on, literal we talk from sports. You don't try 1825 01:36:00,453 --> 01:36:02,893 Speaker 2: and be entertaining. Just do what you're coming to do. 1826 01:36:03,133 --> 01:36:08,093 Speaker 2: You hear about sport, okay, okay, very tense times in 1827 01:36:08,813 --> 01:36:12,093 Speaker 2: the final round of the Super Rugby and we're not 1828 01:36:12,093 --> 01:36:14,053 Speaker 2: really going to know until the end of tonight how 1829 01:36:14,053 --> 01:36:18,773 Speaker 2: it's not gonna unfold. And you know, one of Pacificer 1830 01:36:18,813 --> 01:36:21,973 Speaker 2: have got a very important game tonight, haven't they They have. 1831 01:36:22,133 --> 01:36:25,253 Speaker 16: I think most people, unless you're a Blue supporter, I 1832 01:36:25,293 --> 01:36:27,093 Speaker 16: think most people would love to see more one of 1833 01:36:27,093 --> 01:36:29,333 Speaker 16: Pacifica make the top six. I just think it's been 1834 01:36:29,333 --> 01:36:32,573 Speaker 16: a wonderful story this season when you consider they won 1835 01:36:32,933 --> 01:36:36,493 Speaker 16: a combined seven matches over the last three seasons. They've 1836 01:36:36,493 --> 01:36:39,533 Speaker 16: won six already this season. If they were to beat 1837 01:36:39,573 --> 01:36:43,053 Speaker 16: the Hurricanes tonight, they would probably make the top six. 1838 01:36:43,093 --> 01:36:45,733 Speaker 16: There's a set of circumstances under which they could still 1839 01:36:45,773 --> 01:36:49,453 Speaker 16: miss out, but you know it's you're right. We're down 1840 01:36:49,533 --> 01:36:53,133 Speaker 16: to the last weekend round sixteen and still a lot 1841 01:36:53,173 --> 01:36:56,973 Speaker 16: to be decided. Last night the Chiefs secured top spot 1842 01:36:57,213 --> 01:36:59,493 Speaker 16: without one over the Highlanders in Duned, and the Crusaders 1843 01:36:59,573 --> 01:37:01,933 Speaker 16: needed a very late try to get up over the 1844 01:37:01,933 --> 01:37:04,613 Speaker 16: Brumbies and Canberras and they've locked up second spot. The 1845 01:37:04,653 --> 01:37:07,733 Speaker 16: Brumbies are third. So we know that next weekend the Chiefs, 1846 01:37:07,733 --> 01:37:11,413 Speaker 16: the Crusaders and the Brumbies will host a finals match each. 1847 01:37:11,773 --> 01:37:14,093 Speaker 16: We just don't know who they'll be playing. The Reds 1848 01:37:14,093 --> 01:37:17,053 Speaker 16: and the Hurricanes are definitely there to be joined by 1849 01:37:17,093 --> 01:37:19,813 Speaker 16: one of Muana Pacifica the Blues or even the Waratars, 1850 01:37:19,933 --> 01:37:21,973 Speaker 16: So you're right. I mean, rather than sort of go 1851 01:37:22,013 --> 01:37:23,373 Speaker 16: down a rabbit hole and come up with all the 1852 01:37:23,413 --> 01:37:25,973 Speaker 16: different combinations and permutations which are. 1853 01:37:25,853 --> 01:37:29,333 Speaker 2: Probably just games, but we should joy the games. 1854 01:37:29,933 --> 01:37:32,933 Speaker 16: But tonight at sky Stadium, I get the feeling that 1855 01:37:33,053 --> 01:37:36,613 Speaker 16: there'll be as much support for Mowana Pacifica as there 1856 01:37:36,693 --> 01:37:39,413 Speaker 16: is for the Hurricanes, because it's the return of the 1857 01:37:39,533 --> 01:37:43,173 Speaker 16: prodigal son, Ardie Savilla back to Wellington to take on 1858 01:37:43,173 --> 01:37:46,213 Speaker 16: the Hurricanes for the first time. His brother Julians in 1859 01:37:46,293 --> 01:37:48,053 Speaker 16: tow as well. And let's not forget the coach of 1860 01:37:48,093 --> 01:37:51,213 Speaker 16: the side is probably one of the greatest Hurricanes of 1861 01:37:51,253 --> 01:37:54,493 Speaker 16: all time in tana Umaga. There are others in the squad, 1862 01:37:54,573 --> 01:37:57,493 Speaker 16: a number of them who have played previously for the Hurricanes. 1863 01:37:57,533 --> 01:38:00,813 Speaker 16: I know there's a big, big contingent of Muana fans 1864 01:38:00,853 --> 01:38:02,973 Speaker 16: coming tonight at the airport. When the team flew in 1865 01:38:03,053 --> 01:38:06,533 Speaker 16: yesterday Francisca, there were dozens of not one hundred at 1866 01:38:06,573 --> 01:38:08,213 Speaker 16: the airport to meet them. 1867 01:38:08,213 --> 01:38:09,373 Speaker 2: I that doesn't have on when the. 1868 01:38:09,413 --> 01:38:12,813 Speaker 16: Chiefs fly in or the Islanders, but Moana they're different gravy. 1869 01:38:12,933 --> 01:38:14,773 Speaker 16: So yeah, looking forward to seeing how that plays out. 1870 01:38:14,813 --> 01:38:15,053 Speaker 11: Tonight. 1871 01:38:15,093 --> 01:38:16,773 Speaker 2: Are you be talking some supper rugby on the show 1872 01:38:16,773 --> 01:38:17,373 Speaker 2: this afternoon. 1873 01:38:17,653 --> 01:38:19,813 Speaker 16: Absolutely always keen to talk ab bit of rugby, but 1874 01:38:19,893 --> 01:38:24,733 Speaker 16: also this rather sad state of affairs which rears its 1875 01:38:24,773 --> 01:38:29,133 Speaker 16: head quite regularly, unfortunate's sideline abuse of referee officials. I'm 1876 01:38:29,173 --> 01:38:30,253 Speaker 16: not sure if you caught up with this, but hot 1877 01:38:30,293 --> 01:38:32,373 Speaker 16: off into a carpandy. The provincial Union just north of 1878 01:38:32,413 --> 01:38:34,533 Speaker 16: Wellington have said, look, if this continues, we're going to 1879 01:38:34,613 --> 01:38:36,853 Speaker 16: call club rugby off. We're going to call a round 1880 01:38:36,853 --> 01:38:39,533 Speaker 16: of club rugby off if this abuse of referees does 1881 01:38:39,573 --> 01:38:42,333 Speaker 16: not cease, and so, you know, are they going to 1882 01:38:42,373 --> 01:38:45,053 Speaker 16: follow through with that threat? Is this message actually going 1883 01:38:45,093 --> 01:38:47,053 Speaker 16: to reach the right people? How on earth do we 1884 01:38:47,133 --> 01:38:50,533 Speaker 16: stop the abuse of officials from you know, who are 1885 01:38:50,613 --> 01:38:53,333 Speaker 16: volunteers at this level, from those on the sideline who 1886 01:38:53,373 --> 01:38:55,973 Speaker 16: just wander past and start, you know, start throwing shade 1887 01:38:56,013 --> 01:38:56,493 Speaker 16: at the money. 1888 01:38:56,533 --> 01:38:56,653 Speaker 8: You know? 1889 01:38:57,053 --> 01:38:59,053 Speaker 2: Is it getting worse or are we just fed up 1890 01:38:59,053 --> 01:39:01,333 Speaker 2: with it? We finally fed out getting you know, fed 1891 01:39:01,413 --> 01:39:01,813 Speaker 2: up with it. 1892 01:39:02,173 --> 01:39:02,933 Speaker 16: Both of those things. 1893 01:39:02,933 --> 01:39:03,213 Speaker 11: I think. 1894 01:39:03,253 --> 01:39:05,253 Speaker 16: I think it is getting worse. And it's not just 1895 01:39:05,293 --> 01:39:07,933 Speaker 16: a rugby problem. It happened and football as well. There 1896 01:39:07,933 --> 01:39:10,213 Speaker 16: are certain sports that doesn't happen. And I have to say, 1897 01:39:10,613 --> 01:39:12,453 Speaker 16: I watch a lot of my son play basketball and 1898 01:39:12,493 --> 01:39:14,613 Speaker 16: it doesn't seem to happen. In basketball. You kind of 1899 01:39:14,653 --> 01:39:15,853 Speaker 16: sit up there and the you know, you have a 1900 01:39:15,893 --> 01:39:18,013 Speaker 16: lot of it back from the court. You sit up there, 1901 01:39:18,053 --> 01:39:20,653 Speaker 16: you watch and if you do feel like throwing the abuse, 1902 01:39:20,693 --> 01:39:23,333 Speaker 16: the game's moved on. It's so fast moving eachally it's like, 1903 01:39:23,413 --> 01:39:26,293 Speaker 16: well that that's irrelevant now anyway. So I won't say anything, 1904 01:39:26,413 --> 01:39:27,933 Speaker 16: but I think there are some sports and I think 1905 01:39:27,973 --> 01:39:30,493 Speaker 16: I think rugby, rugby, league football have got some work 1906 01:39:30,573 --> 01:39:31,853 Speaker 16: to do in this area. So I want to chat 1907 01:39:31,893 --> 01:39:35,413 Speaker 16: about that after midday. And also, Gary Stead will not 1908 01:39:35,453 --> 01:39:38,013 Speaker 16: be black Caps coach any longer. He hasn't got an 1909 01:39:38,013 --> 01:39:40,853 Speaker 16: interview for the red ball job moving forward, which was 1910 01:39:40,893 --> 01:39:43,733 Speaker 16: the only one he wanted. So by the sounds of things, 1911 01:39:43,733 --> 01:39:46,653 Speaker 16: New Zealand Cricket aren't going to split this role between formats. 1912 01:39:46,693 --> 01:39:48,453 Speaker 16: There was a school of thought that they might have 1913 01:39:48,453 --> 01:39:50,413 Speaker 16: a red ball coach and a white ball coach. Apparently 1914 01:39:50,453 --> 01:39:53,133 Speaker 16: that's not the case. So Gary Stead's going to leave, 1915 01:39:53,173 --> 01:39:55,773 Speaker 16: and he'll probably leave with a pretty firm legacy of 1916 01:39:56,093 --> 01:39:59,573 Speaker 16: success in his seven years as black Caps coach, but 1917 01:39:59,613 --> 01:40:01,493 Speaker 16: who will take over. We'll have a chat about that 1918 01:40:01,533 --> 01:40:02,213 Speaker 16: this afternoon too. 1919 01:40:02,533 --> 01:40:05,013 Speaker 2: Lots to cover. Thank you so much, Jason, Jason. We'll 1920 01:40:05,053 --> 01:40:08,453 Speaker 2: be back at midday with Weekend Sport.

Good morning, Catherine, 1927 01:40:26,013 --> 01:40:28,453 Speaker 2: good morning, how are you. I'm really good. Thank you. 1928 01:40:28,773 --> 01:40:31,173 Speaker 2: I'm very keen to hear your thoughts on Martha's Vineyard, 1929 01:40:31,253 --> 01:40:34,693 Speaker 2: Beach and Book Club by Martha Hall Kelly. I'm very 1930 01:40:34,733 --> 01:40:36,973 Speaker 2: fascinated in this part of the world. 1931 01:40:38,413 --> 01:40:40,893 Speaker 21: Me too, and I think that's that Martha's Vineyard, a 1932 01:40:41,133 --> 01:40:42,773 Speaker 21: title of it is what really drew me to it. 1933 01:40:42,813 --> 01:40:45,893 Speaker 21: But it's a historical time slip novel that's set over 1934 01:40:45,933 --> 01:40:48,773 Speaker 21: two time periods, nineteen forty two and two thousand and six. 1935 01:40:49,773 --> 01:40:52,093 Speaker 21: In nineteen forty two, it's this portrayal of life on 1936 01:40:52,133 --> 01:40:53,973 Speaker 21: the home front for a women who live and struggle 1937 01:40:54,053 --> 01:40:57,013 Speaker 21: on Martha's Vineyard in the early days of World War 1938 01:40:57,013 --> 01:40:59,853 Speaker 21: two and the book clubs. It's more of a front 1939 01:40:59,853 --> 01:41:04,133 Speaker 21: for their wartime activities and love affairs. And it's mainly 1940 01:41:04,133 --> 01:41:06,093 Speaker 21: told from the point of view of three different women 1941 01:41:06,093 --> 01:41:09,093 Speaker 21: in those two different time periods. And in twenty sixteen, 1942 01:41:09,133 --> 01:41:13,333 Speaker 21: you meet Marie Sherwood who's looking for answers to her 1943 01:41:13,333 --> 01:41:16,653 Speaker 21: family's history in Martha's Vineyard, and she decides to go 1944 01:41:16,693 --> 01:41:18,813 Speaker 21: to the island because she really wants to interview this 1945 01:41:19,013 --> 01:41:22,253 Speaker 21: famous painter about her mother's late her late mother's connection 1946 01:41:22,373 --> 01:41:25,693 Speaker 21: to this island. So when she arrives on the island, 1947 01:41:25,733 --> 01:41:28,133 Speaker 21: she's under the rus of taking a painting class and 1948 01:41:28,173 --> 01:41:33,133 Speaker 21: she meets Elizabeth Devereaux, this painter, and she begins talking 1949 01:41:33,133 --> 01:41:36,093 Speaker 21: to Elizabeth and sharing the story of these two sisters, 1950 01:41:36,173 --> 01:41:38,373 Speaker 21: the Smith sisters, who lived on the island during World 1951 01:41:38,373 --> 01:41:42,093 Speaker 21: War Two, and she realizes that she's very connected to 1952 01:41:42,213 --> 01:41:45,773 Speaker 21: this past.

And I've got the right book, 1975 01:42:51,293 --> 01:42:51,613 Speaker 2: can I? 1976 01:42:52,293 --> 01:42:54,413 Speaker 21: Yes you have, Yes you have, And yeah, no, they 1977 01:42:54,413 --> 01:42:57,573 Speaker 21: do feel very alike. Actually, you're very very spot on 1978 01:42:57,653 --> 01:42:57,853 Speaker 21: with that. 1979 01:42:58,453 --> 01:43:01,213 Speaker 2: Now, tell me about the Warrior Raphael and Nadal and 1980 01:43:01,293 --> 01:43:03,773 Speaker 2: His Kingdom of Clay by Christopher Cleary. 1981 01:43:04,493 --> 01:43:07,573 Speaker 21: So Christopher Clary had already had alreadyritten a book about 1982 01:43:07,653 --> 01:43:10,133 Speaker 21: Roger Federer, and on this one he obviously talks about 1983 01:43:10,173 --> 01:43:13,893 Speaker 21: Raphael Nadal. And Nadal is now of course retired from tennis, 1984 01:43:13,933 --> 01:43:18,253 Speaker 21: and he remains living in Manyoca in Ireland, off the 1985 01:43:18,413 --> 01:43:20,813 Speaker 21: coast of Spain, which has about fifty thousand people on it, 1986 01:43:20,853 --> 01:43:22,893 Speaker 21: and it's where he grew up and it's also where 1987 01:43:22,933 --> 01:43:26,493 Speaker 21: his State of the Tennis Academy is now. And it 1988 01:43:26,653 --> 01:43:30,813 Speaker 21: takes you back to Nadal's childhood and in Spain where 1989 01:43:30,813 --> 01:43:33,333 Speaker 21: most of the courts are clay, and you know, six 1990 01:43:33,453 --> 01:43:36,853 Speaker 21: year old Nadal's playing with adults, and you know he 1991 01:43:36,933 --> 01:43:40,173 Speaker 21: has this top spin forehands that you know were next 1992 01:43:40,293 --> 01:43:43,173 Speaker 21: level speed, and that's really what sets him apart in 1993 01:43:43,293 --> 01:43:46,213 Speaker 21: his career. And you know that talks about when he 1994 01:43:46,253 --> 01:43:48,293 Speaker 21: first played at the French Open in two thousand and 1995 01:43:48,333 --> 01:43:51,933 Speaker 21: five and the record there for men's titles seemed completely 1996 01:43:52,013 --> 01:43:55,053 Speaker 21: out of reach. Bon Borg had six back in the 1997 01:43:55,093 --> 01:43:59,293 Speaker 21: early nineties. And it talks a lot about Nadal's winning 1998 01:43:59,333 --> 01:44:01,853 Speaker 21: attributes and how he always manages to stay in the 1999 01:44:01,893 --> 01:44:04,213 Speaker 21: moment better than his rivals. And you know, a lot 2000 01:44:04,213 --> 01:44:06,653 Speaker 21: of this is before the distractions of social media and 2001 01:44:06,693 --> 01:44:09,893 Speaker 21: cameras and streaming videos and you know, but staying in 2002 01:44:09,893 --> 01:44:12,613 Speaker 21: the moment's always been one of those really hard things 2003 01:44:12,653 --> 01:44:16,013 Speaker 21: as a tennis player. And he has some interesting routines 2004 01:44:16,053 --> 01:44:18,053 Speaker 21: when he was out on court, you know, the wild 2005 01:44:18,133 --> 01:44:20,773 Speaker 21: ticks and the pools and the wipes before you see 2006 01:44:20,813 --> 01:44:23,893 Speaker 21: and perform between every point, and it's his way, I guess, 2007 01:44:23,893 --> 01:44:26,853 Speaker 21: of staying in the zone. And one of the points 2008 01:44:26,853 --> 01:44:28,493 Speaker 21: that kind of stuck with me is he never once 2009 01:44:28,613 --> 01:44:31,973 Speaker 21: threw a broke his record at his tennis racket in 2010 01:44:32,333 --> 01:44:34,373 Speaker 21: the entire time. And I guess if you don't play tennis, 2011 01:44:34,373 --> 01:44:36,733 Speaker 21: you don't realize the frustration that can sometimes come along. 2012 01:44:36,853 --> 01:44:41,813 Speaker 2: But really wants very impressive considering the level he was playing. Cain, 2013 01:44:41,853 --> 01:44:44,653 Speaker 2: do you need to love tennis to enjoy this book? 2014 01:44:45,413 --> 01:44:48,013 Speaker 21: I don't think you need to be a lover of tennis. 2015 01:44:48,053 --> 01:44:50,093 Speaker 21: I think I mean, obviously you need to be interested 2016 01:44:50,133 --> 01:44:52,813 Speaker 21: in sports. But you know, it talks about his competitive 2017 01:44:52,893 --> 01:44:56,053 Speaker 21: business and how you know, playing every point for him 2018 01:44:56,213 --> 01:44:59,573 Speaker 21: was like match point, and you know that real doggedness 2019 01:44:59,573 --> 01:45:02,853 Speaker 21: and determination and you know, his uncle that was his coach, 2020 01:45:02,893 --> 01:45:05,413 Speaker 21: and you know that volume and intensity with what he 2021 01:45:05,453 --> 01:45:08,213 Speaker 21: plays for in that ability to outlast his opponents and 2022 01:45:08,333 --> 01:45:12,733 Speaker 21: a record fourteen wins on will Champ. You know fourteen 2023 01:45:12,773 --> 01:45:16,213 Speaker 21: clay caught tournaments. I mean that is that is amazing 2024 01:45:16,333 --> 01:45:18,853 Speaker 21: in any sport, that he managed to reach that pinnacle 2025 01:45:18,973 --> 01:45:19,893 Speaker 21: that many times. 2026 01:45:20,293 --> 01:45:22,453 Speaker 2: Catherine rains, thank you so much for your time this morning. 2027 01:45:22,493 --> 01:45:24,973 Speaker 2: Really appreciate it.

She had wanted to make an 2047 01:46:41,093 --> 01:46:44,093 Speaker 22: album that was entirely about how sometimes the terrible things 2048 01:46:44,093 --> 01:46:46,373 Speaker 22: that happen in life and the world still have a 2049 01:46:46,413 --> 01:46:49,293 Speaker 22: beauty to them. So that's where that song is kind 2050 01:46:49,293 --> 01:46:52,013 Speaker 22: of like sitting us and it's got that pop disco 2051 01:46:52,213 --> 01:46:55,053 Speaker 22: thing that I mean, everyone's kind of embraced that over 2052 01:46:55,093 --> 01:46:57,653 Speaker 22: the last couple of years. So no surprises really that 2053 01:46:57,693 --> 01:47:00,213 Speaker 22: Miley has also given us one of those kind of 2054 01:47:00,253 --> 01:47:03,453 Speaker 22: bangers and midway on the album where it just all 2055 01:47:03,493 --> 01:47:06,213 Speaker 22: turns into I think she just wants us to dance. 2056 01:47:06,533 --> 01:47:08,613 Speaker 22: Just get up and dance the best we can. Something 2057 01:47:08,613 --> 01:47:10,733 Speaker 22: that I think you'll love about this album and Francesca 2058 01:47:10,853 --> 01:47:13,773 Speaker 22: is that there's also a pop opera film to come. 2059 01:47:13,653 --> 01:47:14,653 Speaker 10: Out in mid June. 2060 01:47:16,053 --> 01:47:18,653 Speaker 22: What she says is inspired and I know you're gonna. 2061 01:47:18,413 --> 01:47:21,533 Speaker 2: Lie, I'm having Jennifer Lopez. I'm having Jennifer Lopez moments. 2062 01:47:21,813 --> 01:47:25,453 Speaker 22: Yes, So I'm hoping it's not as self indulgent as that, 2063 01:47:25,493 --> 01:47:28,253 Speaker 22: but I can't help thinking it might be. She has 2064 01:47:28,293 --> 01:47:32,893 Speaker 22: been inspired by Pink Floyd's The War, and you know, 2065 01:47:32,973 --> 01:47:35,533 Speaker 22: I mean, will it have the same legacy? I dare 2066 01:47:35,573 --> 01:47:38,973 Speaker 22: say it won't. It's meant to be just it's gonna 2067 01:47:39,013 --> 01:47:40,733 Speaker 22: have more fashioned flair. 2068 01:47:41,013 --> 01:47:42,013 Speaker 19: And to me, the. 2069 01:47:42,013 --> 01:47:44,093 Speaker 22: Clips that she's she had to tease it kind of 2070 01:47:44,093 --> 01:47:46,173 Speaker 22: does look like a whole lot of music videos put together. 2071 01:47:46,533 --> 01:47:49,733 Speaker 2: Okay, So I'm I've been I've read things, and I've 2072 01:47:49,733 --> 01:47:52,853 Speaker 2: heard it's a concept album. It's experimental, it's like adelic, 2073 01:47:52,853 --> 01:47:55,613 Speaker 2: but I'm just hearing good old Miley pop here. 2074 01:47:56,253 --> 01:47:57,893 Speaker 22: Well that's the thing. When you listen to that song, 2075 01:47:57,893 --> 01:47:59,933 Speaker 22: you're like, but it's pop disco and there's sin and 2076 01:48:00,013 --> 01:48:02,493 Speaker 22: there's like a sort of an aba kind of harmony, 2077 01:48:02,533 --> 01:48:05,333 Speaker 22: and you know when they go slightly minor key and 2078 01:48:05,373 --> 01:48:07,253 Speaker 22: it makes your skin go a little tingly and you're like, oh, 2079 01:48:07,293 --> 01:48:09,013 Speaker 22: that's kind of fun. I can sing the harmony to that. 2080 01:48:09,573 --> 01:48:12,653 Speaker 22: There's definitely lots of that and and that's the thing 2081 01:48:12,733 --> 01:48:16,093 Speaker 22: she's spoken up this album to be like it definitely 2082 01:48:16,173 --> 01:48:18,413 Speaker 22: is genre bending and that she doesn't just sit there. 2083 01:48:18,613 --> 01:48:21,333 Speaker 22: So there's definitely some other stuff, Like there is some psychedella, 2084 01:48:21,373 --> 01:48:24,293 Speaker 22: there's some there's some house. Sometimes you're gonna hear this 2085 01:48:24,373 --> 01:48:28,053 Speaker 22: full on saxophone intro and then you've got strings and orchestra, 2086 01:48:28,453 --> 01:48:30,533 Speaker 22: but then you're back to the synth kind of vibe. 2087 01:48:30,653 --> 01:48:34,333 Speaker 22: And then there's another song where she actually almost tries 2088 01:48:34,333 --> 01:48:36,533 Speaker 22: out some Lana del Ray sort of styles where her 2089 01:48:36,613 --> 01:48:39,973 Speaker 22: vocals don't overpower the song. So that's kind of different 2090 01:48:40,253 --> 01:48:42,133 Speaker 22: from Miley because I think we're used to her doing 2091 01:48:42,173 --> 01:48:45,973 Speaker 22: those very big vocal builds. But I wouldn't say that 2092 01:48:46,053 --> 01:48:50,213 Speaker 22: it's off the chain psychedelic. She wanted it to be 2093 01:48:50,453 --> 01:48:54,053 Speaker 22: that she's taken you somewhere and you can vibrate at 2094 01:48:54,053 --> 01:48:55,333 Speaker 22: a higher level. 2095 01:48:56,173 --> 01:48:57,373 Speaker 2: Did you vibrate the stelle? 2096 01:48:58,333 --> 01:49:00,053 Speaker 22: I don't know that I did, And it did take 2097 01:49:00,093 --> 01:49:01,853 Speaker 22: me a few listens to be like, what is going 2098 01:49:01,893 --> 01:49:07,613 Speaker 22: on here? I like, well, maybe after a few listens, 2099 01:49:07,613 --> 01:49:09,093 Speaker 22: I think, like some are saying, it's like a really 2100 01:49:09,093 --> 01:49:12,813 Speaker 22: concise album, and I'm like, what, where's the Like, there's 2101 01:49:12,853 --> 01:49:15,053 Speaker 22: not there's not continuity, you know. 2102 01:49:15,333 --> 01:49:15,613 Speaker 10: Do you know? 2103 01:49:15,693 --> 01:49:19,093 Speaker 22: Also she's put interludes in, like there's little, full on 2104 01:49:19,613 --> 01:49:21,853 Speaker 22: loud music interludes. And to me, that's a bit where 2105 01:49:21,853 --> 01:49:24,413 Speaker 22: you get costume changes done when you're doing a live show. 2106 01:49:24,453 --> 01:49:27,733 Speaker 22: It almost plays out like song for song, how a 2107 01:49:27,813 --> 01:49:30,773 Speaker 22: live show would flow. So maybe that's what it is, like, 2108 01:49:30,813 --> 01:49:33,613 Speaker 22: maybe that is interesting the whole concept of it that 2109 01:49:33,653 --> 01:49:35,973 Speaker 22: this is because I'm like, one of those interludes, we 2110 01:49:35,973 --> 01:49:38,133 Speaker 22: don't almost need them, but that's where you would go 2111 01:49:38,213 --> 01:49:40,173 Speaker 22: get your costume change. So that's that's for me. Where 2112 01:49:40,173 --> 01:49:43,573 Speaker 22: that kind of was a little thing she did in 2113 01:49:43,653 --> 01:49:46,973 Speaker 22: Harpers Bizarre was that the songs, whether about distruction or 2114 01:49:47,013 --> 01:49:49,693 Speaker 22: heartbreak or death, they're presented in a way that's beautiful 2115 01:49:49,973 --> 01:49:52,653 Speaker 22: because the nastiest times of our life do point to 2116 01:49:52,733 --> 01:49:56,853 Speaker 22: a beauty and I think maybe hearing that helps you 2117 01:49:57,173 --> 01:50:00,573 Speaker 22: get through the songs. There's heats of catchy stuff like 2118 01:50:00,653 --> 01:50:03,693 Speaker 22: she's still real clever right, Like she's a very good 2119 01:50:03,773 --> 01:50:08,133 Speaker 22: song and there's something about her it just draws me in. 2120 01:50:08,173 --> 01:50:10,373 Speaker 22: And when I physically watch her, I find it quite 2121 01:50:10,413 --> 01:50:15,013 Speaker 22: mesmerizing just how she presents herself in the confidence that 2122 01:50:15,053 --> 01:50:17,013 Speaker 22: she's coming out with in this album. I mean, that's 2123 01:50:17,013 --> 01:50:19,773 Speaker 22: to be admired, and I think that's awesome, and there's 2124 01:50:19,813 --> 01:50:22,653 Speaker 22: some real strutting stuff going on in here, and you 2125 01:50:22,933 --> 01:50:25,293 Speaker 22: just have to go through it a couple of times 2126 01:50:25,333 --> 01:50:27,613 Speaker 22: to go, you know, you're. 2127 01:50:27,333 --> 01:50:30,333 Speaker 2: Not a bad thing, Estelle, that's not a bad thing 2128 01:50:30,373 --> 01:50:32,733 Speaker 2: that we have to work a little bit to kind 2129 01:50:32,733 --> 01:50:34,853 Speaker 2: of find the gems and find the moments in an 2130 01:50:34,853 --> 01:50:36,813 Speaker 2: album when it's all presented to you, you know that 2131 01:50:36,893 --> 01:50:38,893 Speaker 2: three or four listens later, there's half that you're not 2132 01:50:38,933 --> 01:50:39,973 Speaker 2: going to want to listen to again. 2133 01:50:40,533 --> 01:50:42,973 Speaker 22: And maybe that is the magic and cleverness of what 2134 01:50:43,013 --> 01:50:44,853 Speaker 22: this album is, where you'll go, oh, I thought I 2135 01:50:44,893 --> 01:50:46,813 Speaker 22: didn't really like that. But but for me, like there's 2136 01:50:46,813 --> 01:50:49,653 Speaker 22: some at the start where I'm like, oh, yeah, it's okay, 2137 01:50:49,693 --> 01:50:51,573 Speaker 22: but I've gone back a couple more times and gone, oh, 2138 01:50:51,573 --> 01:50:53,493 Speaker 22: you know what, this is kind of growing on me now. 2139 01:50:54,093 --> 01:50:56,293 Speaker 22: And I think sometimes it's a lyric that will suddenly 2140 01:50:56,333 --> 01:50:58,613 Speaker 22: stand out, or sometimes you're like, oh, that's a clever 2141 01:50:58,693 --> 01:51:02,893 Speaker 22: little music but in the background, or a clever use 2142 01:51:02,933 --> 01:51:05,373 Speaker 22: of some of the drums and synths to drive you through. 2143 01:51:05,573 --> 01:51:08,773 Speaker 22: But I would definitely say it still more leads. You 2144 01:51:08,773 --> 01:51:11,573 Speaker 22: know this whole pop opera kind of thing, which still 2145 01:51:11,693 --> 01:51:14,893 Speaker 22: has that very discoie vibe to me. That's where I 2146 01:51:14,973 --> 01:51:18,053 Speaker 22: kind of think that it is. There's a doet that 2147 01:51:18,093 --> 01:51:22,693 Speaker 22: she does with Brittany Howard, who now I can't think 2148 01:51:22,693 --> 01:51:26,733 Speaker 22: except for Filmer the Unicorn, but she's from Alabama shakes 2149 01:51:26,733 --> 01:51:27,093 Speaker 22: there we go. 2150 01:51:27,213 --> 01:51:27,693 Speaker 5: I got it. 2151 01:51:28,253 --> 01:51:30,613 Speaker 2: I'm glad you do because I had no idea where 2152 01:51:30,653 --> 01:51:31,253 Speaker 2: we're going.
