Speaker 1: You're listening to the Marcus lush Night's podcast from Newstalks.
Speaker 2: A'd be.
Speaker 3: Greetings in good evening. Yes, not Operation Midnight Hammer, but
Speaker 3: Operation Midnight Chatter. Will talk till twelve. If you want
Speaker 3: to partake, you're welcome. You're welcome to partake, You're welcome
Speaker 3: to listen. I reckon it's probably going to be a
Speaker 3: three topic night. I got no idea why it's going
Speaker 3: to be three time. That's just what I suspect. I
Speaker 3: feel there's no singular topic going to dominate everything. We'll
Speaker 3: keep an eye on the cease fire, very complicated, the
Speaker 3: old three headed beast, which is the cease fire. So
Speaker 3: obviously the next four hours i'll keep you update on that.
Speaker 3: If anyone breaks that, I don't think it. Actually it
Speaker 3: didn't even enforce until now, but I never know what
Speaker 3: constitutes breaking it. But we're all across that tonight till twelve.
Speaker 3: Some of you will be interested in that also too.
Speaker 3: There's three things I want to start off with. Actually
Speaker 3: I don't normally start with a trident, but I feel
Speaker 3: that's kind of what we've got to do tonight. I
Speaker 3: feel that's what we've got to do. It's thirty years
Speaker 3: since the Rugby World Cup final in South Africa with
Speaker 3: Nelson Mandela and the Springbok jersey and the cap presenting
Speaker 3: the cup to the winner with Francois Piena nineteen ninety five.
Speaker 3: You might have been there, and that would be great
Speaker 3: to hear from you. If you were there, it was history.
Speaker 3: Probably if you look back in time and want to
Speaker 3: have gone to one rugby match, that was probably it,
Speaker 3: although the All Blacks didn't win obviously. But yes, there's
Speaker 3: been movies. I mean, there are many games that there
Speaker 3: have been movies made about, so you might have been there.
Speaker 3: I want to know what it was like, the tour
Speaker 3: before the match and that final match also, So if
Speaker 3: you're there, very happy to talk about that, because of
Speaker 3: course I just emerged from the isolation of the apartheid
Speaker 3: era and they played there, so anyway, it was huge
Speaker 3: thirty years ago, so I don't ah, I kind of
Speaker 3: remember watching it. So if you're part of that, that's
Speaker 3: something you want to talk about, feel free to come through.
Speaker 3: The Other thing I'm really curious to know about, right
Speaker 3: And as I said, there's probably be a three topics
Speaker 3: start tonight. The Bugger in the terrible name. This is
Speaker 3: Noel Edmonds pub. Now, if you don't know Nol Edmonds,
Speaker 3: he was everywhere in the nineties with Nol House Party
Speaker 3: and mister Blobby. It was kind of unwatchable, but I
Speaker 3: think people us even watched it because it had been
Speaker 3: a phenomenon in England, and I mean light tenth there
Speaker 3: was sort of Barrymore, Michael Barrymore and Noel Edmonds. Funny enough,
Speaker 3: both of them have moved and you've seen it at
Speaker 3: some stage of their life. I don't know what that
Speaker 3: tells you about them, but anyway, but Noel Edmonds is
Speaker 3: near Motorweka now nar Nelson. I don't think it's actually
Speaker 3: called that. It's called something else the town where he is.
Speaker 3: But he's got a well, he's got a number of
Speaker 3: businesses with pubs and restaurants and the like, and he's
Speaker 3: done a TV series about them, which is a bit
Speaker 3: like Clarkson's Farm.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 3: Anyway, my question is is it any good? Have you
Speaker 3: been there? What's it like? He says he's hemorrhaging money,
Speaker 3: and there's not much sympathy for that because I think
Speaker 3: probably he was in the head not so long ago
Speaker 3: for grizzling or being a bad and I can't remember
Speaker 3: what it was, but if you've been there, I'm curious
Speaker 3: to know what that's like. He eventually went to Matakhana
Speaker 3: and now he's in the Motawaka Valley. So if you've
Speaker 3: been there to his pub, the bugger In, or the
Speaker 3: restaurant or the Vineyard, wouldn't I know what it's like.
Speaker 3: If you've don't experience that, is it worth a trip?
Speaker 3: He spent thirty mil on it, and now he's made
Speaker 3: a TV series about it now eight hundred and eighty
Speaker 3: ten eighty and nineteen. I think it's a terrible name
Speaker 3: for a pub, the bugger In. It's not even clever.
Speaker 3: But anyway, it's just me. So if you've been there,
Speaker 3: let me know what it's like. That's two things I
Speaker 3: can ask you about tonight. And the third I'm just
Speaker 3: trying to work out what the name of the town
Speaker 3: is because I want to get that's right. Oh, it
Speaker 3: just looks like flat farm man doesn't even look that
Speaker 3: extraordinary the landscape. Oh, now I can see where it is. No,
Speaker 3: I've got the wrong one. It's brought up something wrong
Speaker 3: on my map, So I apologize for that. I was
Speaker 3: looking at the one on Piaco. But yes, if you
Speaker 3: want to come through and talk about that. Eight hundred
Speaker 3: eighty ten eightyan nine two nine two to text. So
Speaker 3: that's what we are on about tonight. Anyway, I will
Speaker 3: find out where it is, so get in touch, as
Speaker 3: I say, oh, eight hundred eighty ten eightyan nine two
Speaker 3: nine two to text. Now I want to also talk
Speaker 3: about people that have never had smartphones. We might save
Speaker 3: that for a little while. Don't know how long will
Speaker 3: save that for, but we might just save that one. Jason,
Speaker 3: it's Marcus. Welcome and good evening.
Speaker 5: How are you good?
Speaker 3: Thank you Jason?
Speaker 6: Excellent, No, and yes, my goodness to me. Growing up
Speaker 6: in the UK, I recall him.
Speaker 7: The first time I recall him was Saturday Morning.
Speaker 6: Swapshop, which was a kid's TV show. He was a legend.
Speaker 6: I grew up with him. But unfortunately it turns out
Speaker 6: that he's not who we imagined he was really Yeah,
Speaker 6: well yeah, I'm kind of disappointed. I thought he was
Speaker 6: a good sword and it turns out he's not.
Speaker 3: I think that's TV people, particularly kids hosts, that become
Speaker 3: I mean, who'd want to be a kid's host anyway?
Speaker 3: For a start, that's a weird thing to want to be.
Speaker 6: And then let's not go down that.
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, I mean look at was he was? He
Speaker 3: the BBC ITV.
Speaker 8: To be honest, I think probably it TV square enough
Speaker 8: for me.
Speaker 7: Yeah, okay, he's not.
Speaker 6: Proper enough for the beab.
Speaker 9: No.
Speaker 3: I was just thinking along the lines of who they
Speaker 3: have hit at the BBC as kid hosts, and they've
Speaker 3: been shocking. Anyway, have you made have you made a four?
Speaker 3: Ready to go and see his place?
Speaker 10: No?
Speaker 8: I haven't.
Speaker 6: Actually, it's probably best I don't because I can't believe
Speaker 6: I've got anything polite to say.
Speaker 3: Well, I appreciate you coming through anyway, Jason. Then we'll
Speaker 3: get off here while we can anyway. Willet's Marcus, welcome
Speaker 3: in good evening?
Speaker 11: Good is that may?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I will Gooday.
Speaker 11: I just wanted to say I wanted to take now
Speaker 11: off of it here.
Speaker 12: I am.
Speaker 11: I live in the Nelson region and I've got beehos
Speaker 11: all over his property. Oh good, Yeah, I've I've been
Speaker 11: working with now I'm muzzy and good bag of this
Speaker 11: way to get along with him really well, and he's
Speaker 11: been been really good for the community and to me
Speaker 11: but yeah, that's I'm a good runs. He's just think
Speaker 11: it's just a bit. That's like a people taking the
Speaker 11: person taking advantage of my face. That yeah, to f
Speaker 11: my twoth ins in there.
Speaker 3: So what's he got there? Is the risk that I
Speaker 3: see on the on the internet. The restaurant says it's
Speaker 3: temporary closed. Is anything open there?
Speaker 11: Uh, they're not too sure. I know they have they
Speaker 11: kept in a Yeah, I didn't realize.
Speaker 8: The pub was closed.
Speaker 3: River Haven temporarily closed, so I don't know why. But
Speaker 3: that doesn't say the bagger run that might be open.
Speaker 11: I'm not too sure. The last I was there, I
Speaker 11: had a pipe here and you know the pubbles there,
Speaker 11: but really really fun.
Speaker 3: Is it quite busy?
Speaker 7: No?
Speaker 13: Not?
Speaker 11: When I was there, there's a lot of bikes that
Speaker 11: come through there. A lot of the people got drafted,
Speaker 11: not really high in that and they stopping for a
Speaker 11: pint and and yeah that's over crowds. Did they only
Speaker 11: opened nothing on weekends? Maybe Friday, said day.
Speaker 3: Because it's actually quite it's not the world's most popular spot.
Speaker 3: It's quite out of the way, isn't it.
Speaker 11: Yeah it is, yeah, Yeah, there's it's probably Yeah, it's
Speaker 11: probably thirty forty minutes from Richmond.
Speaker 8: Some reasons.
Speaker 3: Okay, oh good, and your bees are there. Your bees
Speaker 3: are there to fertilize the good are they They're not
Speaker 3: they're gathering honey. They're there to fertilize it. That the
Speaker 3: way it works.
Speaker 11: Both are the pollinad and they've got a mess of
Speaker 11: garden up top and pollen aiding their fruit trees and that. Yeah,
Speaker 11: and Losie loves das and and all that. So and yeah,
Speaker 11: they've they've got a bit of honey. So we've put
Speaker 11: off a cup of honey and know we're selling it.
Speaker 11: I'd say, I'm not too sure what the plant is there?
Speaker 5: What's the honey?
Speaker 3: What's what's the honey? Predominantly it's awesome gold.
Speaker 11: That's a mixture of sort of honey, Joe, there's a
Speaker 11: bit of minoka nuka there. It's kind of more of
Speaker 11: distant honey. What we call it autumn gold because it's
Speaker 11: been a miss of this sort of stuff on there.
Speaker 3: Okay, thanks for that. Natti Moti is where it is
Speaker 3: by the way too, that's or the Motorwacre Valley. Keep
Speaker 3: the calls coming through. I'm curious if you've been there,
Speaker 3: Bugger in eight hundred and eighty ten eighty, he's played
Speaker 3: thirty million goodness. You need a good return on it.
Speaker 3: You wouldn't you think you need to be open more
Speaker 3: than just the weekends Ape. You'ist good people, Marcus, there
Speaker 3: we go. This is great, Marcus. I was redisappointed in
Speaker 3: the pace the National anth and was sung at the
Speaker 3: Chief Crusader's Final. Too slow like a dirge? What did
Speaker 3: you think you might have been too picky? Best wishes, Mary,
Speaker 3: You're not being picky at all, Merry. The trouble is
Speaker 3: the song's not good and it is dirge like even
Speaker 3: at the Olympics when its Oh, I can feel the
Speaker 3: energy being drained out of my body ther it is
Speaker 3: a dirge, a durgae. It's not a good song.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 3: I don't think we should change it because it's ours,
Speaker 3: but it's not a banger. Some anthems are bangers. Some
Speaker 3: anthems are bangers. Ours is far from it. Our anthem
Speaker 3: is a It feels like your spirit has been drained
Speaker 3: from you throughout the course of the song. I feel
Speaker 3: like I'm being deflated. It's just hasn't got a good beat,
Speaker 3: and I'm not a musical person. I just know I
Speaker 3: don't like that anyway. It's fine now, Mary, people are
Speaker 3: agreeing with you. She's right. It was killed on Saturday.
Speaker 3: Who sung it?
Speaker 10: Who sung it?
Speaker 3: I don't really have a sweepstack. Was it Lizzie Marvelli
Speaker 3: or was it who was it sung it? Just if
Speaker 3: y either two people at the national anthem at the
Speaker 3: Crusaders Final. They did it in two minutes and seven seconds.
Speaker 3: Two minutes seven seconds. Just for a comparison, the great
Speaker 3: Hailey Western Ra seventeen years ago, fifteen years ago, thirteen
Speaker 3: years and fifteen years ago thirteen she did it in
Speaker 3: one fifty seven, in fact, one fifty two. So Hailey
Speaker 3: does it fifteen seconds? Quicker? You want to do it
Speaker 3: less than two minutes. Basically, if you're over to you're
Speaker 3: just you're milking it. That's my take on that one anyway.
Speaker 3: But you don't know if they're any good singers. I think
Speaker 3: one of them is from pop Stars. It was Jenkrmene
Speaker 3: and Michael Kuriesa, Shane Marcus, welcome, Marcus, how you got good? Shamee?
Speaker 14: Hey where I'm from? Two minutes is a long time
Speaker 14: just saying yeah, yeah, hey, nol Edmonds, I might have
Speaker 14: come in halfway through that story. Yeah, the context for
Speaker 14: you is it is it just about him been down
Speaker 14: there and having a bit of money and trying to
Speaker 14: make a living.
Speaker 15: Is that what the story is about.
Speaker 3: I just asking if the restaurant and the bar were
Speaker 3: any good.
Speaker 14: I've been there a number of times. The restaurant and
Speaker 14: the bar are fantastic. He's actually quite a bit operator
Speaker 14: our business, does a little bit of business with them.
Speaker 14: I haven't seen him for twelve months, but he's a
Speaker 14: good investor, does a lot for that area, brought a
Speaker 14: few rundown properties, and I think he's done quite a
Speaker 14: good job. But I'm not sure where the negativity comes from.
Speaker 14: Maybe it's tall foppy Kiwi syndrome.
Speaker 16: I'm not sure.
Speaker 3: I'm not hearing the negativity. I was just curious because
Speaker 3: I see there's a lot of publicity of the UK
Speaker 3: for his TV series. Now, why when you're seventy five
Speaker 3: would you do a TV series about what you're doing?
Speaker 3: I don't know the answer to that, do you no?
Speaker 14: I think much you have been in the limelight. He
Speaker 14: has for most of his life been out of it.
Speaker 14: Probably hurts, you know. I don't think a lot of
Speaker 14: New Zealanders understand how successful he is or was in
Speaker 14: the UK, and it might even be a coup someone
Speaker 14: like him and his wife moving to New Zealand investing
Speaker 14: a few million bucks. So maybe in England he's a
Speaker 14: very popular man.
Speaker 3: Is that right? Okay?
Speaker 14: So there's he started with Blue Peter and he's one
Speaker 14: of the original founders off Top Kit way before Clarkson.
Speaker 3: Mh goodness.
Speaker 14: Really, if you research Noel Edmonds what he's done for
Speaker 14: television in the UK, you'll have a heart attack.
Speaker 12: Man, he's right up there.
Speaker 14: He is the men very interesting character, made a lot
Speaker 14: of money over a long time and invested an awful
Speaker 14: lot of New Zealand. Lots of New Zealand businesses have
Speaker 14: benefited from him being here and having a crack if.
Speaker 14: He's a very good operator.
Speaker 3: So he does he work in the restaurant ah.
Speaker 14: But he's pretty hands on. He's got some land pretty
Speaker 14: sensey land rovers to other little high end vehicles, couple
Speaker 14: of jacks and he knows what he's doing. He won't
Speaker 14: die wondering and he's got some money he doesn't mind spending.
Speaker 3: So what's your connection with him? Shane?
Speaker 14: Just run a small business up in the North Island
Speaker 14: that makes steel kinks and he has some businesses that
Speaker 14: require skill and he chose our company to supply them.
Speaker 14: And I've just dealt with him since then, and he's
Speaker 14: always been really good to deal with.
Speaker 3: Steel Texis loves still tanks for vehicles or for wine
Speaker 3: or something.
Speaker 14: I know, diesel. Thanks good operation.
Speaker 15: The one is a green.
Speaker 14: He's like, you know, he's a battery objectors around Marcus.
Speaker 3: Oh, I know, Shane. I'm not trying to be tricky.
Speaker 3: I'm just talking to is like a puzzle. I'm just saying,
Speaker 3: what what's he need the diesel tanks for? Is it
Speaker 3: for his vineyard or something?
Speaker 14: Yeah, he's got a lot of orchards and some other
Speaker 14: properties down there that would require machinery to be operating
Speaker 14: at all at all times.
Speaker 3: Okay copy that twenty six past eight eight hundred and
Speaker 3: eighty ten eighty nine to text Marcus. If you've ever
Speaker 3: heard the noise that the little penguin makes that lives
Speaker 3: around the Golden the buggering in is quad an app
Speaker 3: name for that pub whatever that means. Keep your texts
Speaker 3: coming through nine two nine two to text Marcus till
Speaker 3: twelve a rugby World Cup Final nineteen ninety five, this
Speaker 3: day thirty years Marcus I was at the game on
Speaker 3: Saturday with the Crusaders and Chiefs. Sion one hundred sent
Speaker 3: agree with other cause and testers texters that that was
Speaker 3: the worst rendition ever of the national anthem. Incredibly slow.
Speaker 3: There are about three different speeds coming from the different
Speaker 3: areas of park. It was just awful, Marcus Smiths said,
Speaker 3: is anthem, but never know what's the triple star? Love
Speaker 3: the Raoh we should forget about the English cheers Mary
Speaker 3: Gee Mary, that's a controversial text for earlier the night
Speaker 3: it'll happen Marcus private Heady Adams has produced a rebust
Speaker 3: tradition of the internationally the on two occasions at the
Speaker 3: wonderful afl Ensics ceremony prior to the Collingwood Essendon match
Speaker 3: on April twenty fifth. Also the this is the different text.
Speaker 3: Also the speed thing definitely makes a difference too, Like
Speaker 3: when Happy Birthday song starts at toddler party, it's always
Speaker 3: about half the speed it should be. Plus people can sing.
Speaker 3: Probably if it's faster, they're less anxious for it to
Speaker 3: hurry up and finish. Marcus, it's time for shape shifter
Speaker 3: and brook Phraser to co lab on a new national anthem.
Speaker 3: Very slow, Hey, the old anthem. They're rigged it. Oh hell,
Speaker 3: I don't know who's the musical directly ss that go
Speaker 3: out there and eratio, get it done. One beat, Hayley
Speaker 3: Western go in one forty five. You're done and dusted.
Speaker 3: If you want to comment on that also too, be kind.
Speaker 3: That sounds like a disaster. Maybe they did it deliberately
Speaker 3: to put the chiefs off their step. You never know
Speaker 3: these days prematch entertainment. They might have rigged it. Tell
Speaker 3: you what, we'll have no cowbells, will sing the anthem
Speaker 3: frustratingly slow, will put them off their spot. Anyway, get
Speaker 3: in touch marks till twelve. If breaking news breaks, will
Speaker 3: be here breaking it Operation midnight Hammer, not quite but
Speaker 3: midnight chatterheadle twelve. Seven minutes ago, Israel Defense minister says
Speaker 3: he has ordered a tack on Iran after claiming Tehran
Speaker 3: has violated the ceasefire. Well that was quick cheapers, by
Speaker 3: the way. According to the BBC website, Iran has denied
Speaker 3: firing at Israel could be one of their proxies. Marcus
Speaker 3: and his anthems should be changed to air poor by
Speaker 3: Prince Toui tek it's a banger. Oh yes, I'm familiar
Speaker 3: with his backcannon. That is a great song. That's one
Speaker 3: of the great songs of all time. Then someone wants
Speaker 3: I want POI air for our national anthem. So no
Speaker 3: one happy with that. I don't think anyone would have
Speaker 3: the guts in the current government to change the anthem.
Speaker 3: They tried the flag and it backfired. But maybe that's
Speaker 3: what we need to do. Sing it frustrating, he siding
Speaker 3: and can people will get jack of it, Marcus. Maybe
Speaker 3: they need a drum and bess remix of it. Base
Speaker 3: it's twenty twenty five, after all, the kids would go nuts.
Speaker 3: UT's nay ah gee, we're back with it. And I
Speaker 3: haven't brought this up the anthem. Just don't put me
Speaker 3: on a cross. This is not me saying we should
Speaker 3: change it. This is the people. There's Jean valjeaning it's
Speaker 3: the people singing the songs of angry men. Why would
Speaker 3: they have the national anthem for a lie? And I
Speaker 3: thought that's probably slightly pompous, is it anyway? Get in
Speaker 3: touch on a Torkettil twelve Rugby World Cup thirty years ago,
Speaker 3: the winning one at South Africa Elis pak Is. They
Speaker 3: always call it, Oh, eight hundred eighty ten eighty just
Speaker 3: a text here, Mark, I just did some quick research.
Speaker 3: Edmonds had nothing to do with Blue Peter, nothing to
Speaker 3: do with starting top gear, but did host two series
Speaker 3: of it. The guy is wrong, he said, do the research. Backfire, Marcus.
Speaker 3: We don't need to change the anthem, just speed it up.
Speaker 3: It's not a funeral, it's a celebration. Maybe they chose
Speaker 3: singers that were unsuitable for the tempo. I don't know
Speaker 3: the people. I don't know what their directions were. But
Speaker 3: you want to do it quick, in and out, that's
Speaker 3: my take. I mean the British, God bless them. They
Speaker 3: do a lot wrong. But I'll tell you what that
Speaker 3: God Saved the King. Gee, that's quick. Flip your in
Speaker 3: and out about thirty seconds. What would be the world's
Speaker 3: shortest national anthem? Do you reckon? I'll google that up,
Speaker 3: thank you very much. It's probably God Save the King.
Speaker 3: I think he used to be God Save the Queen, well,
Speaker 3: which would be long long. And they're both one syllable words,
Speaker 3: aren't they. Apparently Japan is one of the oldest and
Speaker 3: shortest anthems in the world. Cam Iago yep, camiyaga, kimigaio
Speaker 3: seems to be the shortest in the world. Go figure.
Speaker 3: I'm just desperutly trying to find out how long it is.
Speaker 3: Some Wikipedia are a wonderful thing. Only pears to have
Speaker 3: ten words. May you reign continue a thousand and eight
Speaker 3: thousand generations until the tiny People's ground A mess of boulders.
Speaker 3: Lush with moss. That's the eendlish translation. Of course that's
Speaker 3: my surname. So I'm excited about that. Lush with moss.
Speaker 3: I don't know how long it is, by the way,
Speaker 3: might be a minute, six in and out, four lines,
Speaker 3: threety two characters. Oh dan? Is that on the quiz? Lush?
Speaker 17: No?
Speaker 3: What's the shortest national anthem in the world? Lush with moss?
Speaker 3: Why is that not on the chase? What is the
Speaker 3: shortest national anthem in the world? There you go, lines free,
Speaker 3: It's a fiesta. Get in touch, Marcus still twelve Operation
Speaker 3: Midnight Chatter. I'll get you there, Marcus. All three blokes
Speaker 3: we've phoned and have had poor audio setups. That's right.
Speaker 3: That's why I wonder if it was someone one person
Speaker 3: doing sort of voice detection. There you go, get in touch. Mainly,
Speaker 3: what people are furious about is the anthem. I haven't
Speaker 3: heard any discussion on that. That's normally I'm up for
Speaker 3: anthem scandal. But yeah, and you got to say, you know,
Speaker 3: Western rass sat the bar so high that I'd walk away.
Speaker 3: I know a lot of people like Judd Arthur. They
Speaker 3: love Judd Arthur, didn't they because he was a opera
Speaker 3: singer and a rugby player. You don't think he was
Speaker 3: strongly a pined on the David Bain situation, wasn't here?
Speaker 3: Memory serves me right, and my memories normally fairly good
Speaker 3: with Arcania like that ARCANEA. What's the longest anthem? Then? Yeah,
Speaker 3: there will be ones that go I think our one's
Speaker 3: goes forever. There's more verses, but we don't do those.
Speaker 18: Hi, Mary Hallo Marcus.
Speaker 13: I'm so pleased that I got the response that I did,
Speaker 13: because I thought, perhaps I'm just an eighty two year
Speaker 13: old Twitter's too narrow minded and not quite was the
Speaker 13: world that think of the French national anthem.
Speaker 3: Browsing one of the French one. They've just about won
Speaker 3: the game as they stand there they cry, and it's
Speaker 3: so moving.
Speaker 13: I know that. Yeah, No, I was just I put
Speaker 13: my actually put my head in my hands when it
Speaker 13: was it was being I thought, I can't believe that
Speaker 13: he's ever organized this, has done it, has done this.
Speaker 13: So let's hope that the next time we play the
Speaker 13: All Blacks or whoever, that they live and it up
Speaker 13: a bit.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's terrible. The players don't sing it, no one's
Speaker 3: into it. It's a dad let's face it as a
Speaker 3: dud what it is?
Speaker 8: Yes on, Mary?
Speaker 3: Are you a Crusaders supporter, Well, look I.
Speaker 13: Can tell you another little story. I'm actually a Chief supporter.
Speaker 13: I was a real Frian. I was a real fan
Speaker 13: of Damien. But I did something really quite weird once
Speaker 13: when the tech camera was on him and he swore explicitly.
Speaker 13: So I sent off a text to the the Chief's
Speaker 13: management saying, you know, all these young kids are watching
Speaker 13: these games, and you know some of these rugby players
Speaker 13: they should be aware of what the impression they're giving.
Speaker 13: So you know, once again, perhaps I am the rabbit
Speaker 13: now who finds his older lady.
Speaker 3: A bit of a Karen move there texting the boss
Speaker 3: because he swore. That's Pete Karen, that's amazing. Did you
Speaker 3: get a reply?
Speaker 13: No, well I just got a standard reply. But anyway,
Speaker 13: the joke of it was that a friend of mine said,
Speaker 13: if Damien comes on the field and sticks his finger
Speaker 13: up in the air, hell, yo, it's at me.
Speaker 9: And then the.
Speaker 13: Next time, after I'd said this text, he didn't pay
Speaker 13: for two weeks. So I was head of a lot
Speaker 13: of people having the odor bells. It's all your fault.
Speaker 3: You're not saying how do you get the how do
Speaker 3: you get how do you have the chief's phone number?
Speaker 13: You just know I sent an email, So I just
Speaker 13: did it through their management through an email. So you know,
Speaker 13: it's amazing what happens when you know, I do a
Speaker 13: bit of investigation on these magic phones.
Speaker 3: There he goes, was it the air word? That's all
Speaker 3: they say, isn't it word?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 13: And you know when the camera's right on them and
Speaker 13: it's so explicit and it's not means reference. I mean,
Speaker 13: we know how they feel. I must feel pretty dead.
Speaker 3: To say fidget spinner or something. You know, he should
Speaker 3: be more responsible. He's got a liquor company and things.
Speaker 3: He should be more responsible. That's a bad example.
Speaker 13: Isn't it absolutely good that you agree with me?
Speaker 3: Good Mary, I'll pick Carroen. They're cheapest creepers, Marcus. Nothing
Speaker 3: tops God save the King at twicken and with eighty
Speaker 3: thousand Arabi clans seeing at the top of their lungs, amazing,
Speaker 3: have to be there, Marcus, congrats on Duned and retaining
Speaker 3: their airport's international status. They should give North and South
Speaker 3: Islands fraud national airports each Ironically, when you go on
Speaker 3: air tomorrow, sky Open TV will air world's most scenic
Speaker 3: railway Durneys Bore the inlander and the seasider through the
Speaker 3: Taidi Gorge, the greatest traine trip in the country. Maybe
Speaker 3: we should night on the things you've complained and texted
Speaker 3: people about. But gee, emailing David Mackenzie's boss because he
Speaker 3: swore that's kind of next level ownership, isn't it. You
Speaker 3: might want to comment on that. Eight hundred and eighty
Speaker 3: to eighty nineteen to nine. My name is Marcus. Welcome
Speaker 3: looking forty. I will keep you updated with the cease fire,
Speaker 3: although how would you know? Oh what are the latest updates?
Speaker 3: Iranian state media vision response to Israel's exis of the
Speaker 3: country breaking arrests implemented ceasefire, denying reports that fired missiles
Speaker 3: at Israel after the ceasefire came into effect, and israel
Speaker 3: Is vowed to strike targets in the heart of Tehran
Speaker 3: after Iran violated a ceasefire hours after it went into effect.
Speaker 3: So yep, you're not what there used to be the ceasefires,
Speaker 3: Marcus aid, anthem last Saturday night. All I remember is
Speaker 3: the young woman standing there in the shortest dress at a
Speaker 3: rugby final. Come on, a bit of decorum, please, very
Speaker 3: inappropriate for the event, plus it being the worst rendition
Speaker 3: of the anthem day, always shaving for them for what
Speaker 3: they wear. Now, goodness, Marcus, she would be hard to
Speaker 3: beat Ireland's call, but the Sri Lankan anthem at the
Speaker 3: cricket is rather upbeat. I would love ours to be
Speaker 3: Dave Dobbin slice. I don't like Slice of Heaven. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I don't like that. It's a bit too. I mean,
Speaker 3: I like Dobbin, but not Slice of Heaven. Of course,
Speaker 3: Ireland's call because it was hoops with Dave Dobbin. Ireland's
Speaker 3: call is not an anthem e, there is it? Can
Speaker 3: I say that? I don't think Ireland's calls. It's a
Speaker 3: great song, but it's only because the Republic of Ireland
Speaker 3: and the part of the UK that's Northern Ireland come
Speaker 3: together for rugby. I need a special song. There you go, Marcus.
Speaker 3: Can we talk about school speeches? Finding my topic? Hard
Speaker 3: day in the life without technology? How about where's your
Speaker 3: punctuation for that text? Marcus? I've been to many global
Speaker 3: sporting events. Nothing beats Cardiff Arms of the Welsh people
Speaker 3: beautifully singing with passion and in tune. Gary doesn't help
Speaker 3: their rugby though, does it. That's the trouble with them,
Speaker 3: too much effort on the singing. The top topic seems
Speaker 3: to be the stand of the anthem at the rugby final.
Speaker 3: I don't even know why they needed the anthem at
Speaker 3: the rugby final. And while they had two people singing it,
Speaker 3: but apparently Freevere slow two minutes and seven seconds Western
Speaker 3: radd in one fifty two, so yeah, it is slow.
Speaker 3: I don't know what their brief was, but there we go.
Speaker 3: People went happy with it. I don't know if it
Speaker 3: was deliberate, ah, but it's just one of those songs.
Speaker 3: You get it wrong, you get it so wrong, you
Speaker 3: get it wrong. It seems like a wet week. It's slow.
Speaker 3: Don't know what the answer is. Anyway, you might want
Speaker 3: to comment on that. Noel Edmonds, if you've been to
Speaker 3: his restaurant, that is good also too, to talk about
Speaker 3: that too tonight. The Rugby World Cup thirty years ago.
Speaker 3: You might have been at that final. Curiously what it
Speaker 3: was like touring around South Africa in nineteen ninety five
Speaker 3: as they got welcome back into world rugby? Haha? Anything else?
Speaker 3: Also the ceasefire you might have your hot reckons on
Speaker 3: that doesn't appear to be holding. But we don't really know.
Speaker 3: I don't know who is the impartial observer to tell
Speaker 3: us stuff from there. But we'll keep you updated with that. Also,
Speaker 3: there is something different you want to mention brilliant get
Speaker 3: amongst it? Oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty the
Speaker 3: way the boy racers and live in They are saying
Speaker 3: that they've got nowhere else to go. They're getting pinged
Speaker 3: for doing convoys. The men said they are frustrated authorities
Speaker 3: sought to crack down on them but gave them no
Speaker 3: affordable to go. One day at Manfield is probably just
Speaker 3: under a grand Why does skaters have skate parks. Footballers
Speaker 3: have football fields. Why do rugby players have rugby fields?
Speaker 3: They want somewhere they can go boy races. Well done
Speaker 3: of the response that you might want to comment anyway, Bridget,
Speaker 3: this is Marcus. Welcome good Marcus, tell you good, Bridget.
Speaker 19: I just wanted to make the comment about the Levin
Speaker 19: boy racers. Now, I mean, I'm middle aged now and plus,
Speaker 19: but haven't we been hearing it about these boys for
Speaker 19: a long time now? We should we should really be
Speaker 19: embracing their boy racer thing that they're happening in live
Speaker 19: In and just get behind them instead of just like
Speaker 19: pushing them to the site.
Speaker 3: Like good branding for the town. Because we all know
Speaker 3: about the Levin boy racers a.
Speaker 19: Well, they're kind of like a movement now. They've been
Speaker 19: around for like a decade or so, haven't they.
Speaker 3: I don't know, Well, this isn't Are you from there?
Speaker 19: No, I'm not, but I mean, yeah, I'm not. I
Speaker 19: could be wrong, but at least five years, right, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 19: So I'm just I just don't know why we don't
Speaker 19: just give them somewhere to race. They're not going to
Speaker 19: stop racing. They're obviously well entrenched now and just just
Speaker 19: lay off them, you know. I mean, we're better off
Speaker 19: policing it than we are to be not giving them
Speaker 19: anywhere to do their they're.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I appreciate it. So you're catching yourself out with
Speaker 3: the phone on that, with your ready on that caught
Speaker 3: you up. I think you make some valid points. Thank you, Nigel, Marcus, welcome.
Speaker 20: Good evening.
Speaker 3: Then, young Nigel, my name is Marcus, not Nigel.
Speaker 20: Okay, yeah, sorry Marcus.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm not young. Don't pete calling me young anyway,
Speaker 3: what did you want to say?
Speaker 20: I was going to say, I'm going to challenge you
Speaker 20: on the best rail journey in New Zealand. I reckon
Speaker 20: it's the christ the Graymouth terribly after after a good
Speaker 20: dumping of snow, it's just marvelous.
Speaker 3: There and back there and beck in a day. The
Speaker 3: people are kind of poking their eyes out with boredom
Speaker 3: by the end of it.
Speaker 20: But that's the same with Tory. Gorgeous.
Speaker 3: No, that's as sure. That's a couple of hours up,
Speaker 3: a couple of hours back. It's brilliant, it's perfect.
Speaker 20: Or the other option, as you get off the train,
Speaker 20: wherever's a middle march or booker rang and do the
Speaker 20: cycle trail.
Speaker 3: A yeah, no, I yeah, I just think that I
Speaker 3: always support the Tayry Gorge because there's run. You know,
Speaker 3: they don't make a fortune out of it, and I
Speaker 3: always think it's I think five hours there and back
Speaker 3: the gorge.
Speaker 20: Yeah yeah, but don't you what about that alpine scene
Speaker 20: with all the snow. I went up done the christ
Speaker 20: Church the Graymouth after a big dumping of snow and
Speaker 20: it was like being in fairy land with all the snow. Now,
Speaker 20: once you got up off the tender be planes into
Speaker 20: the Alps, it was beautiful.
Speaker 3: Okay, thanks Nigel, Joe, Marcus welcome, Hi Joe. Okay, it's Marcus.
Speaker 3: Welcome here you are mate, good, thank you, Joe.
Speaker 21: Yeah, I was just ringing up about the.
Speaker 12: Races.
Speaker 8: Yes, so I was in town that night.
Speaker 21: Me and my partner are out having a drink or whatever,
Speaker 21: and we were there and the cops were, you know,
Speaker 21: doing their things. They were eradicating everyone whatever, and it
Speaker 21: was good what they were doing, but they were targeting
Speaker 21: the wrong people, if you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: Sure, tell you more. Who were they targeting?
Speaker 21: It was no so the boy racers had left, they'd
Speaker 21: all got in their cars that've gone and we were
Speaker 21: just outside the pub and we all got told to
Speaker 21: leave town.
Speaker 3: Oh they're targeting you.
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, just bystanders.
Speaker 3: And yeah, oh that sounds like that's that sounds like
Speaker 3: real bad policing.
Speaker 16: Yeah.
Speaker 21: No, well, you know, obviously they're targeting what they could get.
Speaker 21: But yeah, it was, Yeah, it was sort of more like, hey, Chase,
Speaker 21: what you're actually here for?
Speaker 3: Always seems a bit hyped up? This thing, doesn't it.
Speaker 3: They're like they're all, yeah, I reckon. Yeah, I can't
Speaker 3: quite work it out because I'm there are even that
Speaker 3: many people living out How many boy races are there?
Speaker 15: Oh?
Speaker 21: They all come from backtown and it's you know, they're
Speaker 21: they're really burnouts and they leave like they're only doing.
Speaker 16: It for attention.
Speaker 3: Will Where do they do the burnouts?
Speaker 21: Oh, they do it on their main interceptions and everything,
Speaker 21: which you know, you can understand the truckers, but they're
Speaker 21: getting paid, they're suing their waiting, so you know, the entertainment.
Speaker 21: Good on them.
Speaker 8: But yeah, just the way that.
Speaker 21: You know, the cops react and everything, that's sort of
Speaker 21: if you're going to do something, do it to the
Speaker 21: people who are actually causing the issue, not innocent people
Speaker 21: on the side of the road that are obviously come
Speaker 21: out from a pub. They see what's going on, so
Speaker 21: they come out to look.
Speaker 3: Sounds wrong, Joe, thanks for that. We'll talk about that
Speaker 3: more in the next hour. But it was a busyer.
Speaker 3: It's all going on. Oh, eight hundred and eighty t
Speaker 3: nine nine to the tics mark till twelve. We are
Speaker 3: talking about the Levin Boy Races, which is.
Speaker 4: Great.
Speaker 3: I've got no idea what even the thing is, and
Speaker 3: most of us only know the headlines, but I don't
Speaker 3: really know what happens if it's an annual thing of
Speaker 3: there's something that regularly. Got no idea what it is.
Speaker 3: I mean, it always seems incongruous Levin and Boy racing.
Speaker 3: So if you're involved we know anything about it, give
Speaker 3: us a holler and maybe we can deal with some
Speaker 3: facts about this. Also, oh, eight hundred eighty ten eighty,
Speaker 3: they're saying they need somewhere to go, yeah, which is
Speaker 3: often the cry of the Boy races. But then there's
Speaker 3: old times that say, oh, we've opened up the car club.
Speaker 3: They don't want to go there, but I think it's
Speaker 3: quite expensive. They're going to a race track and do
Speaker 3: things like that. Anyway, you might want to talk here
Speaker 3: till twelve oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty night. I wait,
Speaker 3: John Marcus, welcome, Hello, Margaret, Tell you good John, Thank you.
Speaker 8: It's good. Hey, I'm actually a Karen enthusiast myself.
Speaker 3: Good thanks for calling.
Speaker 8: Oh no, that's fine. Hey. I do think it probably
Speaker 8: was in the right area, but it was actually the
Speaker 8: good thing.
Speaker 17: You know.
Speaker 8: I actually do enjoy the cars, and they were good.
Speaker 8: It was in the wrong area.
Speaker 3: Are you talking about where it was on Levin?
Speaker 8: Yes, yes, yes, it was a good thing for the
Speaker 8: cars to have it, but it wasn't a wrong area.
Speaker 8: And I can agree with the people not wanting to
Speaker 8: go to the car clubs because they actually don't have
Speaker 8: the areas for people to do burnout.
Speaker 3: Can you tell me what the Levin thing is? Does
Speaker 3: it happen every year?
Speaker 2: Does it?
Speaker 22: No?
Speaker 8: I'm actually not entirely sure. I just caught wind of it. Yeah,
Speaker 8: and it would have been probably about three days before,
Speaker 8: so I went down and I did go to it,
Speaker 8: but it wasn't the wrong area and people could have
Speaker 8: got hurt, but we were pretty controlled. I would have.
Speaker 3: Thought, who was how many people were there?
Speaker 20: Oh?
Speaker 8: To put a number on it, I would say fifty people.
Speaker 3: Was it well organized?
Speaker 8: Well, obviously not Marcus, but well, I.
Speaker 3: Mean, was there someone in charge?
Speaker 8: I don't actually know the nitty gritty to be fair,
Speaker 8: but fair enough.
Speaker 3: Yeah. And was there a burnout competition? John?
Speaker 8: No, No, I don't think there was. I was just
Speaker 8: a couple of enthusiasts, what doing laps or.
Speaker 2: What's that?
Speaker 7: Sorry?
Speaker 3: Were they doing laps? I mean what were they actually doing? Oh?
Speaker 8: No, I was just quite related to it, just a
Speaker 8: little bit of a car thing.
Speaker 3: What did you turn your radio on?
Speaker 23: No?
Speaker 8: No, I don't have radio on. Okay, you're going on
Speaker 8: the background here?
Speaker 3: Yeah, that doesn't work. Okay, So yeah, can you? Yeahs
Speaker 3: hung up? What a terrible call they hung up anyway,
Speaker 3: So you might have been involved with that, because I've
Speaker 3: got no idea what it was. If it's an organized
Speaker 3: thing or something happens regularly. It's been in the news
Speaker 3: number of times, but there's huge hype around about it.
Speaker 3: We weren't saying they're pooringly behaved and this and there's that.
Speaker 3: But I'm sure there's boy races that congregate all around
Speaker 3: the world every day, all around yours in it every
Speaker 3: day and don't kind of have the same attention. So yes,
Speaker 3: you might know something more about that, because ev it's
Speaker 3: quite sort of a settled sweep town, isn't it. Not
Speaker 3: much going on anyway, getting a lot of new callers,
Speaker 3: which is great, but just turn your radio off when
Speaker 3: you can't get on here, otherwise you'll hear yourself delayed
Speaker 3: and it will mess with your mind. It'll mess with
Speaker 3: your mind like you won't imagine, I can promise you
Speaker 3: because you'll hear yourself in the background and it will
Speaker 3: it will affect your your flow of thought. That's my
Speaker 3: take on that one. Also to about the National anthem,
Speaker 3: how appalling it was at the Crusader's Chiefs match. Just
Speaker 3: slow sorry Marcus, but who the hell do these kid
Speaker 3: racists think that I was involved with the racism Beau
Speaker 3: Monsteret ANDRT in the seventies. Someone says, how many kids
Speaker 3: and gum boots were handed off the wild we shootout
Speaker 3: on the weekend? What does that mean? They had one
Speaker 3: in field and where they could go, but it cost Ooh,
Speaker 3: it's all about what happened at Levin. While we talking
Speaker 3: about Levano, because the guy said that it's because the
Speaker 3: guys sounded a bit self pitying. What said is that
Speaker 3: the skaters have skateboarding places and the rugby players have fields,
Speaker 3: but the boy racers have nowhere to go. But they've
Speaker 3: got the roads. That's what the cars are for, aren't they?
Speaker 3: Aren't they for the roads? Was even talking about this, Dan,
Speaker 3: I find the original article. There was something about that today.
Speaker 3: That's why I'm talking about it. Levin boy Races, Oh yeah,
Speaker 3: Tnarian dead story. Livin Invasion organizers say boy races need
Speaker 3: somewhere to go. Live In Invasion organizers say government tough
Speaker 3: talk and promise boy racer crackdown spurred them on. They
Speaker 3: say enthusiasts have nowhere off road to go. Transport minist
Speaker 3: promises tougher luws on the way, and it says they've
Speaker 3: been labeled cowardly, try hard, idiots, menaces, and morons. They've
Speaker 3: going a crowd of a thousand and two hundred cars
Speaker 3: filled the Horner fen to a town over three weeks ago,
Speaker 3: doing burnouts that caused public outcry and a large public response.
Speaker 3: But the people kind of involved with organizing and doubling
Speaker 3: it down, says convoys are just corenthusias out to see
Speaker 3: each other's cars. They're not intimidating the public. The men
Speaker 3: who agreed not to be named said they were frustrated
Speaker 3: authorities sought to crack down on them but gave them
Speaker 3: nowhere affordable to go. They're not going to said. As
Speaker 3: a sport, pads are quite expensive. One da manfield is
Speaker 3: probably just under a grand. It's not cheaper accessible for
Speaker 3: those of us who like to do it on the
Speaker 3: daily or we kens. Why does skaters have skate parks?
Speaker 3: White of footballers have football fields. Wide of rugby players
Speaker 3: have rugby fields. Those are publicly fund of those are free.
Speaker 3: There's obviously a big trend coming through in right now
Speaker 3: where skidders are getting out there on the street. You're
Speaker 3: gonna need somewhere to put them. I presume a skidder
Speaker 3: is like a drifter, is it? What's a skidder? They're skidders.
Speaker 3: Police officers are attacked with fireworks, something the organizers said
Speaker 3: they didn't condone, and four bystanders were injured by the cars.
Speaker 3: We endorse for people of stealth, the roads stay clear
Speaker 3: of our skidders, but still they like to get close
Speaker 3: to get that ten second video.
Speaker 2: Brilliant.
Speaker 3: You want to mention that eight hundred and eighty skidders, Marcus,
Speaker 3: Let's be very clear, living was a riot. Police were
Speaker 3: padded with rocks and bottles, head bottles and fireworks. Sort
Speaker 3: of them lucky that none suffered serious injury. Why Marcus.
Speaker 3: Years ago and the mid eighties we used to cruise
Speaker 3: up around the Queen Street and Nork and mostly hild
Speaker 3: cars off. Often we would go to places like a
Speaker 3: Scott Road marg and E which was an industrial area
Speaker 3: away from the public. It was a rite of passage held.
Speaker 3: We didn get a schooled by police, but not on
Speaker 3: the scale day. I think probably the scale is not
Speaker 3: their big these days. You're hard to hear of boy races.
Speaker 7: I don't what a.
Speaker 3: Skids are, Marcus. They say with scientific evidence. News Inna
Speaker 3: is the best place to be if World War III
Speaker 3: was ever to break out, as long as you don't
Speaker 3: want to go and buy butter or fruit and veggies
Speaker 3: for your family looking for your hot reckons on the
Speaker 3: anthem performance at the can at the Crusaders Chiefs match
Speaker 3: Saturday night, two minutes seven seconds. Far too long. I
Speaker 3: don't know if that had a backing track or what
Speaker 3: the time was, but not good A cappella. That'll be
Speaker 3: the problem. The other thing too is the boy racers
Speaker 3: and live in They say they actually need places to
Speaker 3: go and do their skidders. No idea what a skidder is.
Speaker 3: I think it might be like a burner. I don't know.
Speaker 3: Seems to be annual season with people beating up on
Speaker 3: the boy races. This story kind of peaks from time
Speaker 3: to time and then they're ignored and they go away.
Speaker 3: But the couple of the organizers have got their backs
Speaker 3: up with the government saying there's going to be harsher
Speaker 3: boy racer laws.
Speaker 12: All good.
Speaker 3: I'm then standing up for themselves. I suppose. I think
Speaker 3: there were fireworks. I don't know if the police had
Speaker 3: rocks thrown at them. I look into that police describe
Speaker 3: being hit by fireworks. Yeah, ten arrested. Oh one young
Speaker 3: woman had both your legs right over. Well, that's not
Speaker 3: a good look. Eight twenty past nine, JOHNO, it's Marcus.
Speaker 7: Welcome, Marcas going good. John It's right.
Speaker 23: Hey, Yeah, I reckon like I'm a bit older now,
Speaker 23: I'm mid thirty's, you know, and I've been They've done it.
Speaker 7: I reckon.
Speaker 23: The bloody boy racers scenes massive these days. A yeah,
Speaker 23: where I live and Cambridge, and you know you get
Speaker 23: mobs of hundreds of cars. They come into town and
Speaker 23: skids everywhere. Police try and turn up, they just throw
Speaker 23: bottles and ship at them.
Speaker 3: And what sort of cars, John know, what sort of
Speaker 3: cars are the boy races into these days?
Speaker 20: Wow?
Speaker 23: Because you can go and buy like a pretty cheap
Speaker 23: Falcon and stuff now, and you know they've got plenty
Speaker 23: of plenty of toad to do a skid pretty easily.
Speaker 16: And then.
Speaker 3: There are they're old cars.
Speaker 23: Yeah yeah, well they're all like, you know, a model
Speaker 23: Falcons and stuff like that, where will drive Falcons and
Speaker 23: like what year like the Da Falcon heaps them around.
Speaker 23: I don't know what they are. They must be like
Speaker 23: late teens, yeah, okay, yeah yeah. And then and then
Speaker 23: all those Japanese cars that we had growing up, well
Speaker 23: a lot of them are like modern modern day classics
Speaker 23: and stuff now and yeah, they they're richet and bust
Speaker 23: them to day. It all over Instagram and TikTok and
Speaker 23: all that.
Speaker 3: You know, so they're all filming each other, that's the thing.
Speaker 7: Now.
Speaker 3: That's a different level as the post. So what's a skidder?
Speaker 23: Yeah?
Speaker 8: Oh well I've got no idea. I'm just getting it.
Speaker 23: Some burnout.
Speaker 3: So they just get they just get to like dary
Speaker 3: and streets, they do burnouts and that's the kind of thing.
Speaker 3: Then they post those videos.
Speaker 23: Yeah, and then they also they've obviously got like group
Speaker 23: chats and stuff, and someone will just say there somewhere
Speaker 23: and then within like an hour there's fucking hundreds of just.
Speaker 3: Bring the language back, but yeah, there's hundreds.
Speaker 23: It's just hundreds of them there, you know. And then
Speaker 23: I'll just chet each other and that just snowballs massively.
Speaker 3: I mean to be fair, To be fair, John, if
Speaker 3: you're young and you're into cars, it sounds quite fun.
Speaker 3: It sounds like.
Speaker 14: I'm not gonna lie, you.
Speaker 3: Know, as long as you don't start having running battles
Speaker 3: with the police. Yeah, yeah, and as long as you're
Speaker 3: safe with the burnouts. Because some burnout I think there
Speaker 3: was some work party Winton, some guided a burnout in
Speaker 3: the shed and it work doing it somemer, which seemed
Speaker 3: to be stupid. But you know, you'd want to stay
Speaker 3: well clear of the burnouts. But I guess with people
Speaker 3: wanted to film them, they get quite close.
Speaker 23: Well, I think, how you know, our obstacle was always
Speaker 23: trying not to get caught. But now they just don't
Speaker 23: really care, I feel, you know, okay, yeah, you know
Speaker 23: the police turned up and they'll just you know, they
Speaker 23: throw bottles and fireworks or whatever at them, and you
Speaker 23: know they that regard for the law.
Speaker 3: Really A Levin does sound a bit different. Are you
Speaker 3: in Cambridge? John?
Speaker 23: Oh? I am yup, yup.
Speaker 3: But the boy races had come from Hamilton, wouldn't they.
Speaker 23: Yeah, well they do, like they do big meet up.
Speaker 23: So I know that there's on Tarafus straight in Hamilton.
Speaker 23: The boy races through laps around there like most Saturday
Speaker 23: nights or whatever. But every year they do a thing
Speaker 23: called the Hamilton Invasion and they'll be like, I don't know,
Speaker 23: three hundred plus cars that come down. It's like it's
Speaker 23: absolute carvts.
Speaker 3: Yeah, brilliant, okay, good to hear. Joo, brilliant, colorful language.
Speaker 3: Mark Marcus, welcome, you're okay, Marcus.
Speaker 12: I remember in the two thousands, kind of probably early
Speaker 12: mid two thousands there's boy races because I'm from Auckland,
Speaker 12: and that'd be creising around in Auckland too, like down
Speaker 12: Queen Street and stuff just sort of slow just and
Speaker 12: there was some seriously cool cars, all jack cars and
Speaker 12: stuff like Evos there, specially Evos and the Sabahi wrxs
Speaker 12: and skylights and stuff, and you could recognize them even
Speaker 12: from being a performance car, like they are really properly
Speaker 12: done cars. And there was no police, snow violence, no fireworks,
Speaker 12: no throwing things, no nothing, and they were more just
Speaker 12: sort of cruising and almost kind of parading the cars,
Speaker 12: kind of revving the engines, windows down, all saying good
Speaker 12: out of each other, and if you knew them, you'd
Speaker 12: say hi and whatever. And I reckon, what's happened is
Speaker 12: it's become really kind of boguny and it's I mean,
Speaker 12: three hundred cars and kind of rar on news in
Speaker 12: one it. I mean, I've just traveled to Dunedin today
Speaker 12: and there's some kind of matte black old Nissons and
Speaker 12: stuff like slammed on wheels kind of I don't know,
Speaker 12: like I just remember a time where it was actually
Speaker 12: quite spectacular, no harm being done, just really cook cars
Speaker 12: and you know, actually some quite onto it.
Speaker 3: Guys, Yeah, turn out well, to be fair, I always
Speaker 3: thought the boy Racer was the definition of bogan but
Speaker 3: and yeah, and Mark, what's different now? Is in the
Speaker 3: old days, even going back to Beaumont Street in the seventies,
Speaker 3: they don't seem to be drag racing anymore. They're not
Speaker 3: doing illegal street bass. They're just doing burnouts and skidders.
Speaker 12: Yeah, they're just absolutely blazing tie and then and then
Speaker 12: when the old farmers or whatever where they're in those
Speaker 12: areas whatever you know, come out and say clear off,
Speaker 12: they absolutely lose their rets and start throwing things and
Speaker 12: kicking off.
Speaker 3: Have you have you have you seen this or just
Speaker 3: heard about it?
Speaker 12: I'm just hearing him. I hear, I read and hear
Speaker 12: atective about what you're talking about, Like, yeah, when.
Speaker 3: I haven't seen much bad stuff. We've got boy racers
Speaker 3: in the cargo, but they just go around the two
Speaker 3: roundabouts and just go back and around, and it always
Speaker 3: seems quite quaint and kind of unspectacular.
Speaker 12: Yeah, you've got what about gorons?
Speaker 8: Do you have some gorens?
Speaker 3: They have the old Yeah they got there. Yeah, they've
Speaker 3: got the big old cars. They come down, they go
Speaker 3: to the they come up to the Blossom festival and
Speaker 3: they drive her out up Queen's Down. But they they,
Speaker 3: I mean, they seem pretty old and pretty unharmless.
Speaker 12: Yeah, and the criteria seems to be a to have
Speaker 12: a mullet and maybe.
Speaker 3: I think I think you're go to a bench seat
Speaker 3: so you can get three in the front.
Speaker 12: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: I think that's quite important. And the cars get handed
Speaker 3: down from generation to generation.
Speaker 12: Yeah, and then maybe some girls on there and some
Speaker 12: of those, yeah, much as we used to have.
Speaker 3: The no, I think they have. I think they have
Speaker 3: flag and I think they have the Petsy rigular beer
Speaker 3: and a paste glass. I think that's what they do.
Speaker 12: Or even those goon bags, you know, the bus wine, maybe.
Speaker 3: The old riot peck and it has been going for
Speaker 3: a hundred years, hasn't it.
Speaker 24: Yeah, it has.
Speaker 12: I think My point is that I remember it being
Speaker 12: a little bit more. Yes, you say, I mean they're
Speaker 12: all boguns, but I don't know.
Speaker 24: I don't think.
Speaker 3: I don't think it's even sophisticated.
Speaker 12: Well maybe just a tear above like your head cars make,
Speaker 12: you know, the magazines, and I'm making it in there
Speaker 12: because they were they are a well done car and
Speaker 12: setting these ten second records at Mary Mary or whatever,
Speaker 12: and they were and then you'd see the same car
Speaker 12: that you've just seen in the performance car just just
Speaker 12: you know, cruising down Queen Street. Just I mean, basically
Speaker 12: it's full of It's just from how face you can
Speaker 12: get from one set of lights to the next. Se
Speaker 12: You're not going to get up about more than thirty
Speaker 12: k's actually, but you know, and I remember it being
Speaker 12: just actually quite spectacular and a bit more interesting than
Speaker 12: just idiots with these matte black sort of shith household
Speaker 12: cars just you know, ruining their tires.
Speaker 3: Okay, I've got to think more about that, but well,
Speaker 3: might see someone else is going to get into the
Speaker 3: if it's become if it's become less sophisticated supers get
Speaker 3: in touch by name is Marcus welcome?
Speaker 16: Oh wait?
Speaker 3: One hundred and eighty ten eighty and nineteen ninety two
Speaker 3: to text, who get in touch Marcus till twelve anyway,
Speaker 3: eight hundred and eighty ten eighty nineteen ninety six. It
Speaker 3: is all about the boy races. Pretty happy to talk
Speaker 3: about this. A lot of great texts coming and I'll
Speaker 3: get to those soon. Beautiful the liver. So what I
Speaker 3: can tell it seems the whole thing that's changed about
Speaker 3: boy racing is now it's gone online, TikTok, Instagram, It's
Speaker 3: quite visual, and I guess you're doing burnout. So one
Speaker 3: of those other things door bangers. What's it when you
Speaker 3: slam the doors? Or I can't I had some videos
Speaker 3: once upon a time. I don't know much about it.
Speaker 3: But oh wait, ten hundred and eighty today, Jamie Marcus, welcome,
Speaker 3: Oh Marcus, there you go, good Jamie.
Speaker 15: I was just listened to your last caller and as
Speaker 15: someone that was very much in the scene in the
Speaker 15: mid two Felvin, there was nothing. There was nothing sophisticated
Speaker 15: about it. The only I was thinking, why were they
Speaker 15: lots more sophisticated was only because the cars were newer,
Speaker 15: whereas now they're thirty years or twenty years down the track,
Speaker 15: you know, so they're still racing the same cars because
Speaker 15: it's a passion for them. But yeah, they're just so
Speaker 15: that was and yeah, you did have the ones that
Speaker 15: got on the magazine, but then well they were far
Speaker 15: and kee between. They've used to go and buy five
Speaker 15: hundred dollars Graspers cut the springs and then we cruise
Speaker 15: up and down Queen Street and then go out in
Speaker 15: South Auckland. And they were riots for the whole the
Speaker 15: whole shooting matches to.
Speaker 3: Go on you and when you come across them, like occasional,
Speaker 3: they'd be parked right along Key Street towards the mc
Speaker 3: cann ex pay. There would be a lot of cars.
Speaker 3: It'd be four or five hundred, wouldn't there.
Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, it was massive. Yeah, it would be. When
Speaker 15: you get on the Southern Motorway, it would be like
Speaker 15: it was bumping a bump of trafficking at eleven o'clock
Speaker 15: at night, you know, all going to like clear any
Speaker 15: drive before when that first got put in before there's
Speaker 15: imagine the houses along there now, but there was just
Speaker 15: that was in the middle of nowhere.
Speaker 3: How did you communicate? Was this pre cell phones or
Speaker 3: was this texting days?
Speaker 15: This was just texting days, but it was very much.
Speaker 15: So you just go down Queen Street and then the
Speaker 15: word aeron was sort of going, we're going to leave now.
Speaker 15: And then you'd get down the bottom down through Key
Speaker 15: Street and then out on the Southern Motorway and you
Speaker 15: just take a car and follow and you'd hope that
Speaker 15: you'd end up in the right spot.
Speaker 11: Was sorry you go?
Speaker 3: Was the racing or burnouts or just yeah, yeah, all of.
Speaker 15: The bump yeah, and then the cops would show up,
Speaker 15: and then you know you'd all scrambled a couple of
Speaker 15: bottles and get in front of them, and then you
Speaker 15: go to the next right game A cat and Mountain
Speaker 15: of night. Huge fun, so much.
Speaker 3: Fun, incredibly exciting. I suppose you're young with your car.
Speaker 3: It seemed, yeah, stakes were high.
Speaker 15: Yeah, you get a fine every weekend, but you didn't care.
Speaker 15: You know, I wasn't tool till now they've they've put
Speaker 15: me in the bump. But back then you go, what's
Speaker 15: the eight hundred dollars fine when you only earned four
Speaker 15: hundred dollars a week? Was the kind of well, you know,
Speaker 15: there was a big amount of money and you didn't care.
Speaker 3: What were you find mainly for.
Speaker 15: No warrant, no regio restricted driver and the company learner
Speaker 15: restricted driver with friends just all that sort of thing.
Speaker 3: How much did you mess up?
Speaker 15: The peak of it was about forty grand I had
Speaker 15: to get a person alone to pay the box, so
Speaker 15: I didn't come back to the country, So I bought
Speaker 15: my second house, got a person alone, paid them off.
Speaker 3: Yeah, did it come to stages you're building up towards
Speaker 3: forty grand fine? You think actually I got to stop
Speaker 3: because this is getting out of hand or were having
Speaker 3: too much fun.
Speaker 15: I got to the point where, you know, like I say,
Speaker 15: I was an apprentice vs probably making six hundred dollars
Speaker 15: a week. They were taking one hundred dollars in fines,
Speaker 15: and so it was just like, man, this was never
Speaker 15: going to end. So who kids, we just keep getting
Speaker 15: some more.
Speaker 3: Okay, So you never you never stopped until you left
Speaker 3: the country.
Speaker 15: Yeah, then yeah, and then I'm paying them. Ahletil we
Speaker 15: moved to Australia and then they got you know, I
Speaker 15: had eight grand in the end, so I paid that
Speaker 15: about four months ago.
Speaker 5: I paid out.
Speaker 3: Did you get speeding tickets or tickets off on thee?
Speaker 3: I suppose you can't with your job as a truck driver.
Speaker 16: Yeah you got.
Speaker 15: I didn't every state for a while there, I had
Speaker 15: a few grands of fines just because they loved to
Speaker 15: the trucks are an easy target over here. They know,
Speaker 15: get money out of here.
Speaker 3: You know that, of course they are suppose yeah, okay,
Speaker 3: but yeah, do you know anything about the contemporary scene.
Speaker 3: Is that the same kind of thing what they're doing now?
Speaker 15: I'd imagine so I couldn't. Yeah, I haven't say for years,
Speaker 15: I've been over here but from the video though, it's
Speaker 15: it's pretty similar. They're raising the same of cars, like, yeah,
Speaker 15: they buy those mid nine probably get those mid ninety
Speaker 15: Falcons and be your skidder. Yeah, d cheap.
Speaker 3: Someone's asking you if you remember a car with a
Speaker 3: Ridgio four banger.
Speaker 15: Ring the bell, but yeah, I can't really remember.
Speaker 3: Ev. That's addressing. People are trying to get your shout
Speaker 3: out to their cars they remember anyway, Okay, yeah, what's
Speaker 3: a skidder?
Speaker 15: I don't be just like I imagine it would be
Speaker 15: anything real drive that's cheap, so like a Falcon or
Speaker 15: coming on.
Speaker 3: Okay, nice to hear from you, Jamie twenty four away
Speaker 3: from Team We're talking boy Racing eight hundred and eighty
Speaker 3: Marcus First Car Park, Mission Bay. Back of the day,
Speaker 3: mid eighties women make one bat mark when escort huge
Speaker 3: burnouts just seems to be part of most males growing up.
Speaker 3: That's it. That's what they do. Get where their mates
Speaker 3: drive cars happen forever a text or read it. Check
Speaker 3: out Mexican and hun Cartel on YouTube. That's from Wayne.
Speaker 3: So a lot of them seem to have Facebook pages
Speaker 3: now or Instagram accounts where they show their post videos
Speaker 3: I guess that's the next level. Now it seems as
Speaker 3: though you can post pictures of yourself doing things. I
Speaker 3: imagine the success of the Fast of the Furious movies
Speaker 3: would probably show where your audience are. I think they're
Speaker 3: still making them. Are they brilliant? I've watched all of those,
Speaker 3: tell you what, they vary quite a lot in quality.
Speaker 3: Harriet Marcus, welcome.
Speaker 10: Hi.
Speaker 25: I'm just bringing to make a comment about all of
Speaker 25: the boy racers bringing up tonight and making their disclosures
Speaker 25: about their previous and long term you know, speeding fines
Speaker 25: and all the rest.
Speaker 3: And I'd just like to make them meaning, I don't
Speaker 3: think guys find with the speeding. I think he said
Speaker 3: they were for yeah, well driving on a restricted license,
Speaker 3: unaccompanied and unregistered and unwarranted. I think he mentioned speedings
Speaker 3: to be fair.
Speaker 13: Okay, So there's.
Speaker 25: Boy racers, and there's skinners, and there's all these things.
Speaker 25: But twelve years ago one of them killed my sister
Speaker 25: on the side of the road.
Speaker 3: So where was that area.
Speaker 25: I would just like to see what people've got to
Speaker 25: say about that. So what were the circumstances of that, Well,
Speaker 25: the circumstances the lost control and hit my sister on
Speaker 25: the side of the road.
Speaker 3: So I would just like to see what people have
Speaker 3: got as a spectator, what was the scenario that happened.
Speaker 9: Yeah, that was yep, spectator's true.
Speaker 16: Hm.
Speaker 9: So I would just like to see what people have
Speaker 9: got to say about that.
Speaker 3: So what's your response to the people from Levin saying
Speaker 3: that they need places where they can go and do
Speaker 3: it where it's safe.
Speaker 25: I think that boy raises need their has taken off them.
Speaker 25: They need to learn responsibility before they drive.
Speaker 3: Well, they tried that. That didn't work. I mean, I
Speaker 3: know that crush The Colins tried it. They crushed one
Speaker 3: car and I think they got the wrong car, So
Speaker 3: it seemed as though the whole laws were unenforceable.
Speaker 25: M okay, And what do you say about the dead
Speaker 25: people on the side of the road.
Speaker 3: Oh, well, yeah, that's the tragedy. But I'm just trying
Speaker 3: to say that they've tried to find a workable way
Speaker 3: to stop it, and they don't seem to have had
Speaker 3: any success.
Speaker 25: No, not yet.
Speaker 3: And they tried to crush cars and it was unworkable.
Speaker 3: That's why they're not doing it anymore. They crushed one
Speaker 3: and they got the wrong they got the wrong one.
Speaker 25: But these boys aren't getting harsh on penalties.
Speaker 3: Well it seems though that age, the penalties don't really
Speaker 3: worry them. As he said he had forty thousand dollars
Speaker 3: with a fines.
Speaker 25: Yeah, and that's exactly right.
Speaker 3: Nice to talk, thank you. Eighteen to ten, eight hundred
Speaker 3: and eighty ten eighty Marcus. There are two different kinds
Speaker 3: of car groups out there. They're those with rebuilt cars
Speaker 3: that belong to recognize car clubs and are usually tombed
Speaker 3: as hot rods and go on cruisers. Then you have
Speaker 3: the boy races as they are apparently called. It don't
Speaker 3: seem to care too much about their cars or anyone else. Shame.
Speaker 3: Someone can't do date a padder can get it concreted.
Speaker 3: So they have somewhere to go and do their burnouts
Speaker 3: donuts without bothering the community. Let's face it, even the
Speaker 3: kids have skateboard parks. Just breaking news, his real defense
Speaker 3: minister says he's ordered a tech on a run after
Speaker 3: claiming to run has violated cease fire. He's ordered a
Speaker 3: force for military response. So yep, much going on there,
Speaker 3: Dean Marcus. Welcome to Harriet.
Speaker 2: I am boy racist from back in the day. Unfortunately,
Speaker 2: these are tragic things that can happen, and it's not fair.
Speaker 2: I remember back in the day seeing people get hit
Speaker 2: out of certain places that people would congregate, you know,
Speaker 2: guys swinging donuts and stuff. Seeing people get hurt, it's very,
Speaker 2: very tragic. But it's honestly no different to being at
Speaker 2: a rally. You know, cart loss control and somebody gets hit.
Speaker 2: It does happen. It's just one of those freak things.
Speaker 3: Quite often rallies.
Speaker 2: Don't you that the unfortunately, but it does happen. I
Speaker 2: suppose you run the risk when you're a spectator. You
Speaker 2: know it's happened at which Araka park? Remember one of
Speaker 2: the years ago, one of the guys Will think she
Speaker 2: was my mate's brother, Will came off as car he
Speaker 2: was in a stock car going around the track, actually
Speaker 2: flew off, went into the crowd and actually killed somebody, unfortunately.
Speaker 3: I guess the difference probably is with some of the
Speaker 3: nighttime so called illegal activities with boy racis. I imagine
Speaker 3: probably I don't know, I'm not partaking, but I mentioned
Speaker 3: that's probably often as there there'd be alcohol involved, which
Speaker 3: probably would appair judgment and some of the decisions made,
Speaker 3: or even worse, I would think.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, just for a quick story, my mate,
Speaker 2: you just have a custom Bedford van. It's called Midnight
Speaker 2: Miss had a mural of a sailing ship on the back,
Speaker 2: done beautifully, you know, turned timber inside, had a nice
Speaker 2: big double bed in there and had three twenty seven
Speaker 2: shives and a forward. Unfortunately, but we're racing a guy
Speaker 2: in a falcon. We're going to the lights of Wellesley
Speaker 2: Street and Victoria and the lights changed and the guy
Speaker 2: and the falcon decided to go. We stopped, and it
Speaker 2: was lucky we stopped. As soon as we stopped, hed
Speaker 2: a bang under the van hopped out. Looked down underneath
Speaker 2: in the drive shaft had actually dropped off the back
Speaker 2: of the gearbox and onto the ground, and the other
Speaker 2: part was still connected to the to the dipp So
Speaker 2: if that had happened while we were going nuts, we
Speaker 2: probably would have pulled vaulted end over end down Queen Street.
Speaker 2: So we were lucky we stopped.
Speaker 3: This in the eighties, eighties, nineteen eighties.
Speaker 2: It was in the eighties year, mid eighties to sort
Speaker 2: of late eighties year.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Midnight did the Midnight must have steam trains
Speaker 3: on the side of.
Speaker 2: It, thank no, No, the midnight must So it was
Speaker 2: a sailing It was like sailing ship type thing. So
Speaker 2: it was metallical, metallic brown. And inside it was all
Speaker 2: turned timber, you know, like a French polisher had done
Speaker 2: turned all the timber. It was all done promptly inside
Speaker 2: a nice big double bed and had the bubble window
Speaker 2: at the back on the left and the right inside.
Speaker 2: But I had a mural of an old sailing ship
Speaker 2: on the back. Somebody might remember it, but I mean
Speaker 2: there were a few vents flating around those days. Used
Speaker 2: to be an old Crimson transit man called the Deer Hunter,
Speaker 2: which was quite well known that used to cruise around
Speaker 2: town as well.
Speaker 3: What happens to vans that they just get scrapt in
Speaker 3: the end.
Speaker 26: Do they?
Speaker 2: I don't know, you kind of hope people have held
Speaker 2: on to them and they're actually you don't see them around,
Speaker 2: do you. No, you don't, honestly you don't. It's real.
Speaker 2: It's good when you do see the odd one, but
Speaker 2: you know, it's like all those classic gut falcons and
Speaker 2: manaros and that you know, they're all tucked away in
Speaker 2: someone's garage. Now worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Speaker 3: You know, nice to talk, Thanks so much, Jan, good evening,
Speaker 3: Paul ats Marcus, will we just chick? I've just done
Speaker 3: something weird with my mouth. Oh, Paul, it's Marcus. Welcome.
Speaker 8: Hey, I'm just rigging about that previous caller, Harriet y.
Speaker 8: I do agree with the fact that it was wrong,
Speaker 8: but she didn't really set the scene on how what
Speaker 8: had happened to her sister.
Speaker 3: No, but that's I mean, it's a powerful call to make,
Speaker 3: isn't it, because someone's got killed for what they're doing.
Speaker 3: But I mean, you know, I mean, of course, a
Speaker 3: lot of people get killed by cars, about four hundred
Speaker 3: every year. So yes, yes, yes, bol it's tragedy.
Speaker 8: But yeah, I mean something completely different.
Speaker 3: Yes, And I didn't feel particularly comfortable grilling here about
Speaker 3: the about the details of his sister's death because obviously
Speaker 3: it was a tragedy.
Speaker 8: Oh no, no, no, the same. It's not apples with apples.
Speaker 3: But you've got to have that. You know, there probably
Speaker 3: can be another discussion here about.
Speaker 8: Because there is a degree of empathy or I understand that.
Speaker 3: But you know, it seems as though even since American
Speaker 3: graffiti there'd be sixty years ago that at least. Yeah,
Speaker 3: there's all has been boy racers, and there's always some
Speaker 3: sort of moral panic. And I'm sure people out there
Speaker 3: think it's much much worse than it is because they're
Speaker 3: never they're witnessing it. They just hear their reports the
Speaker 3: next day. I know, for a long time christ Church
Speaker 3: was tormented by boy racers going around the inner city
Speaker 3: avenues and they banned them. I know in Hamilton five
Speaker 3: years ago it was all out the west of Hamilton
Speaker 3: and people were tormented. I know in Auckland for a
Speaker 3: long time was happening. Now it seems unlikely of all things,
Speaker 3: that's happening in Livin.
Speaker 8: Yeah, And that's exactly things. And people see a lot
Speaker 8: of things. People see the steps. But it happens most
Speaker 8: nights other than not. I'm not condoning it, but we
Speaker 8: all hear about it when it goes dead.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: But also to the young people, it's probably not a
Speaker 3: huge amount for them to do. Are you too young
Speaker 3: to be going? I haven't got much money, you got
Speaker 3: your cars and it's probably everything you need really Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 3: particularly in small towns with his dumb and I suppose
Speaker 3: a lot of people on video games these days, are they?
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not in that kind of market, but.
Speaker 8: No, neither of myself really to be fair, but yeah,
Speaker 8: I just.
Speaker 3: Can't see them. So I just can't see them solving
Speaker 3: it anytime soon.
Speaker 8: No, and crushing them is not going to fix up.
Speaker 8: Like you said in that call, they've tried then and
Speaker 8: that didn't work well.
Speaker 3: I even think they I think in the end they
Speaker 3: got the wrong car. The guide swapped. There was a
Speaker 3: guy from Milton. He'd swapped the plates, so they didn't
Speaker 3: even crushed the right car. So it sort of made
Speaker 3: the government look a bit like a laughing stop. They
Speaker 3: could even find the car and confiscat and get rid
Speaker 3: of it, so it just seemed unworkable. I mean, there's
Speaker 3: smart boy races, aren't they, because I know all the
Speaker 3: things with switching around number plates and all sorts of stuff.
Speaker 8: Yeah, well then you get somebody that's got a vehicle
Speaker 8: that's financed, and how.
Speaker 10: Does that go.
Speaker 3: Yeah, a good point. It's a really good point. Okay, Paul. Thanks.
Speaker 3: They say boy races need places to go to do
Speaker 3: their stuff. What that stuff as, I don't know. They
Speaker 3: say skidders, although on the flip side. You could probably
Speaker 3: say they'd build them that stuff. They wouldn't want to
Speaker 3: go because what they really want is the element of
Speaker 3: danger and illegality. I'm sure that's one of the draw
Speaker 3: cards for it.
Speaker 16: Text.
Speaker 3: They not only swap plates, but they have police radios
Speaker 3: and watchers too. They sit the road interests to where
Speaker 3: they are. The smart ones leave when the cops are
Speaker 3: on their way, but the drunk, surly, young ones are
Speaker 3: what leads to the chaos that eat it up and
Speaker 3: live in. That sounds like a good ring true to me.
Speaker 3: The livin instant was mostly out of town. Is using
Speaker 3: it as a convenience. Why don't they join a car
Speaker 3: club and use the Manfield track to hell with tex
Speaker 3: and ratepayer supplying them with a skid pad. They say, Manfield,
Speaker 3: that man will costure just under a grand, so it's
Speaker 3: too expensive. So we are talking about you want to comment, oh,
Speaker 3: eight hundred and eighty ten eighty. The back comment tonight
Speaker 3: is also about how bad the anthem was it? The
Speaker 3: rugby the final of Super Rugby the Crusaders versus the Chiefs.
Speaker 3: Apparently it was a shocker, slow and long a cappella
Speaker 3: two minutes seven for like two hours seven apparently, I
Speaker 3: don't know why we do it to tell you what
Speaker 3: the players aren't into. It be different if the players
Speaker 3: got right into it and use it to rack them
Speaker 3: up a bit. But Noah, Anyway, that's what we're on
Speaker 3: about tonight, eight hundred eighty ten eighty nine nine to text,
Speaker 3: get in touch, looking forward to your comeds if something
Speaker 3: different you want to talk about. Also, let's be hearing
Speaker 3: from your Marcus till twelve and I'll keep your da
Speaker 3: with you throughout the course of the evening. But we
Speaker 3: mainly talking about boy racist. Your thoughts please, because Christ
Speaker 3: seem to sort it out and Hamilton seemed to sort out.
Speaker 3: It just seems to kind of appear in different places.
Speaker 3: But boy racers say they need places where they can go,
Speaker 3: and they say there's rugby field for rugby players, which
Speaker 3: is fair enough when council spend a fortune on stadiums,
Speaker 3: although it's a sport not a pastime. I guess that's
Speaker 3: a slight difference. A good evening, Gabe, it's Marcus, welcome.
Speaker 27: How are you Marcus?
Speaker 2: Good?
Speaker 3: Thanks Gabe, excellent.
Speaker 27: Hey, I was just thinking about this whole good pad thing. Yeah,
Speaker 27: totally understand I'm a rate payer. In fact, we have
Speaker 27: two houses we pay rates on and they do they
Speaker 27: just rip around and wrap up all the tar seel
Speaker 27: and all your beautiful streets and all the rest. Why
Speaker 27: not give them a dedicated space so they don't go
Speaker 27: and wrap themselves around a powerpole. And sure they could
Speaker 27: pay the fund it if it's the worst part, but
Speaker 27: at least give them an option.
Speaker 3: I guess the questions would they use it? But I'm
Speaker 3: sure it'll be concrete, so it'd be better too, wouldn't it.
Speaker 27: Well, either that or you know, ash felt. But the
Speaker 27: chip seal stuff just it's cheap and nasty and it's
Speaker 27: you know, I don't think it it's built to last
Speaker 27: as much as what it is. They've just reach chip
Speaker 27: sealed our street probably less than six months ago, and
Speaker 27: they just go over top of what currently there. They
Speaker 27: don't come in the holes and all the rest. I mean,
Speaker 27: for these guys on a good pad, I think they're good.
Speaker 27: Like if that's their passion and that's what they want
Speaker 27: to do, then why not support that?
Speaker 3: If you go as a society, is there a boy
Speaker 3: race a problem where you are? Gabe?
Speaker 27: Yeah, I'm in sung today, mate, there's there's definitely a
Speaker 27: few of them. My brother lives in christ Church and
Speaker 27: he said that was terrible and they basically the police
Speaker 27: cracked down on them and that kind of has stopped
Speaker 27: them somewhat. But you know, at the end of the day,
Speaker 27: some of the guys get on the track and do
Speaker 27: it properly, and then there's the ones that either can't
Speaker 27: afford to get on a track and do it properly
Speaker 27: or they just out there to cause trouble. And Mike,
Speaker 27: I think you said, you know, they probably enjoy the illegality.
Speaker 12: Of doing this.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure. I've been at the tracks a bit. Stuff.
Speaker 3: It's sort of second generation with the money, I would
Speaker 3: think too. Probably nice to talk Gabe, Jack Marcus.
Speaker 8: Welcome the obvious solution.
Speaker 22: Good pad for them, but YESU was counsel and a
Speaker 22: sec are going to shut it right down. These unwarranted vehicles,
Speaker 22: vehicles that are not fit for the road and figuring
Speaker 22: on the skip pad whether it's private.
Speaker 3: Property or you make a very good point too, because
Speaker 3: if you're going to be on a skid pair, you
Speaker 3: would need to be warranted and your car would need
Speaker 3: to have safety checks, would it Otherwise? It would become
Speaker 3: a death trap. It works.
Speaker 22: And the problem is these people go on Facebook marketplace
Speaker 22: by two three dollar cars. They don't give back of
Speaker 22: a car or anybody else on the road with that vehicle.
Speaker 22: And what's going to have on the skid pad. The
Speaker 22: vehicle's going to fall apart. They might fall off a
Speaker 22: S good pad, rolls or car andji themselves and j bystanders,
Speaker 22: you know. So a simple solution is if they had
Speaker 22: warranted vehicles, you know, insurance, and there's some sort of
Speaker 22: oversight on it, by all means, get a S good pad.
Speaker 22: I'm sure the counselor a scis be more than happy
Speaker 22: of it. But at the moment, there's the large majority
Speaker 22: of them that love having unwarranted vehicles, love the risk
Speaker 22: of being caught by the cops and just you know,
Speaker 22: just having that badge on their shoulder. Hey, I've got
Speaker 22: this from the cops. So I got that from the cops.
Speaker 22: So I expacked the cops tonight by driving like a
Speaker 22: complete fall.
Speaker 3: You know that that's the problem, Jack, Jack, do you
Speaker 3: know this from experience? Are you a parent, a boy
Speaker 3: racer or a cop.
Speaker 22: I'm not a cop.
Speaker 12: I'm not a parent.
Speaker 22: I'm not a boy racer. I've been to a couple
Speaker 22: of events as a bystander. I know people have boy
Speaker 22: racers as permit of your texts earlier. A lot of
Speaker 22: them do have police scanners, but that only works up
Speaker 22: in like Living and Pumps Awkway because it's not in
Speaker 22: crypt channels. When they come down to Wellington, they're not
Speaker 22: sure when the cops have been called or coming unless
Speaker 22: they're spotted by their spot is at their entrances to
Speaker 22: these streets.
Speaker 3: I sus speak what you're saying, right, I suspect if
Speaker 3: you're unregistered or unwarranted, it does add to the excitement
Speaker 3: of it.
Speaker 9: It seems too.
Speaker 22: It just seems to be an attraction the whole Oh
Speaker 22: what we're doing isn't legal. And the problem is that
Speaker 22: ACC is still accepting these claims from his injury. They
Speaker 22: should just be declining them like what we're doing, Oh,
Speaker 22: you're an illegal event?
Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 22: That would crack down a lot of people attending these
Speaker 22: Their claims are.
Speaker 3: I don't think the boy raised them intelligent. I don't
Speaker 3: think they're going to be thinking about ACC somehow.
Speaker 22: I'm pretty sure they think about it pret quickly once
Speaker 22: they're lane on that hospital bed, wondering how your wage
Speaker 22: is going to be covered, how we're going to be
Speaker 22: paying for their rents coming up. It's at the end
Speaker 22: of the day and it's head figure out up in
Speaker 22: legal st get their vehicles in a legal condition. I'm
Speaker 22: sure farm owners have been more than happy to let
Speaker 22: them on certain paddocks if their vehicles are legal warranted
Speaker 22: and there is no risk to a farm owner.
Speaker 3: Nice to hear from you, Jack, Thank you, good evening, Sarah.
Speaker 3: It's Marcus. Welcome.
Speaker 18: Hi Marcus Cecely, congratulations on your award a couple of
Speaker 18: weeks ago.
Speaker 7: Thank you.
Speaker 18: And I was actually ringing to talk about Trump, but
Speaker 18: I just thought i'd say on the boy racer thing,
Speaker 18: I have five brothers and they have between us all
Speaker 18: we've managed to have. I was trying to count them up,
Speaker 18: but probably a does nephews. Nobody has been into the
Speaker 18: boy racing thing, and I think it's a parenting thing
Speaker 18: around boundaries, safety and all that stuff.
Speaker 16: Yeah.
Speaker 23: I think.
Speaker 3: I think there's great differences between where you live too.
Speaker 3: I think in rural communities like south And it's a real,
Speaker 3: very big thing because it's not a lot else to
Speaker 3: do and people need cars. Because they're living out of
Speaker 3: the city on farms and it becomes a big thing.
Speaker 3: So I think, and I don't think suddenly everyone in
Speaker 3: South is a bad parent.
Speaker 18: Yeah, I think you're right about that. Though I'm calling
Speaker 18: from Auckland, so I think you're probably right. So it's
Speaker 18: kind of a thing where there is boy racing and
Speaker 18: that sort of stuff in Auckland too, But yeah, different reasons.
Speaker 18: I was just going to call about the Trump thing
Speaker 18: and say, it's a really difficult time in the world.
Speaker 18: And I did study World War two history some time ago,
Speaker 18: and I just remember the time between Chamberlain and Churchill,
Speaker 18: and Chamberlain tried for years to go through very peaceful
Speaker 18: times in negotiations with Hitler and Germany, and I think
Speaker 18: and then Churchill came in after him and basically declared
Speaker 18: that the Britain was at war with Germany. And I
Speaker 18: just think we are in one of those very strange
Speaker 18: times where there is a lot going on in the
Speaker 18: world and it's really hard for us to sit there
Speaker 18: in the background was a lot with very little information.
Speaker 18: When there are countries with a lot of nuclear capability
Speaker 18: in development, like Iran, and I think some in the
Speaker 18: context of peace time and pragmatism. There is some quite
Speaker 18: extreme views in countries like Iran, and it's very difficult
Speaker 18: to think of those countries with nuclear arms.
Speaker 3: Yeah, although once you've got nuclear arms, once you use them,
Speaker 3: you get a blitter rage. I think that's why North
Speaker 3: Korea is not use these. It's mutual, it's mutual destruct
Speaker 3: It's mutual destruction, isn't it.
Speaker 9: That's exactly what it is.
Speaker 18: And I think that there are a number of countries
Speaker 18: who do have them, and then there are many who
Speaker 18: who do not have them, and those who are in development,
Speaker 18: maybe they potentially like North Korea.
Speaker 3: Like your point here, I think North care has got
Speaker 3: I think North Korea has got nine that they can
Speaker 3: use nine I have them.
Speaker 4: But I'm just.
Speaker 18: Thinking there are countries where there are potentially extreme views,
Speaker 18: and you might argue that North Korea has got quite
Speaker 18: extreme views, but I would think that Iran has experience.
Speaker 3: You could argue that the United States has got free
Speaker 3: extreme views these days.
Speaker 18: Yeah, they have potentially used to, but I don't think
Speaker 18: the whole thing has played out yet, That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 18: And I think it's really difficult for us to form
Speaker 18: a view at this fine some time, and I think
Speaker 18: we can form an anti Trump or anti Iran or
Speaker 18: anti Israel's view. And I really don't feel like we
Speaker 18: actually have enough information, especially here in New Zealand. But
Speaker 18: I feel like we don't have enough information.
Speaker 3: I don't anyone's as anyone asking anyone to form a view,
Speaker 3: are they?
Speaker 19: Yeah, well, I.
Speaker 9: Think actually so.
Speaker 18: I think I've got friends over on the in the
Speaker 18: Northern Hemisphere who have got views, and I've got friends
Speaker 18: on this side of the world who have used And
Speaker 18: I don't actually think we are in a place to
Speaker 18: actually have a view or a fixed view on it.
Speaker 3: Live with the Sarah Thank You twenty one past ten.
Speaker 3: No one loved the anthem the text are saying it's terrible.
Speaker 4: Marcus.
Speaker 3: Yes, that anthem was a shock of so long and slow,
Speaker 3: totally inappropriate for the rug. We needed a fast, enthusiastic performance.
Speaker 3: Should have been backed by cowboys. Twenty three past ten.
Speaker 3: David Marcus welcome, Hey, yeah, good David, thank you.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's going on up to just bighlight. A couple
Speaker 7: of things in the sense of the boy Racers subject.
Speaker 7: I've had a nineteen ninety five toilet super for the
Speaker 7: last eleven years, and for those eleven years, I've been
Speaker 7: getting profiled as a boy racer. I'm a car enthusiast.
Speaker 7: I've never modified the car at all. It's completely stuck
Speaker 7: out of the factory. But yeah, for some reason, I
Speaker 7: just keep on getting profiled with the nineties Japanese import car.
Speaker 3: What do you mean you get profile? You mean you
Speaker 3: get stopped or what happens?
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, no, I get Well, it's been ten eleven
Speaker 7: years of harassment. Realistically, I live up in Hamilton, by
Speaker 7: the way, So.
Speaker 3: What form does the haracement take.
Speaker 7: Well, they'll like fly up out of nowhere past like
Speaker 7: three or four different cars, pulled me over and say
Speaker 7: it's a random stop where I got full license, waff Ridge,
Speaker 7: Everything's legal, everything sweet. So in my books, that's not
Speaker 7: exactly a random stuff.
Speaker 3: Is daytime or not? Is daytime or nighttime? David both?
Speaker 7: It doesn't really matter if it's day or night. But
Speaker 7: I would say it's gonna be worse at night because
Speaker 7: you're gonna get profiled if you're in a Japanese nineties car.
Speaker 3: Yeah are you young?
Speaker 7: But I was young once upon a time.
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm just trying to think once people realize you're
Speaker 3: not boy racing material. Does the heate apologize or do
Speaker 3: they just go about the way.
Speaker 7: You don't get apologies from police and Hamilton. There's a
Speaker 7: lot of thing.
Speaker 3: Well they check your license and make your blow, do they.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's all just a waste of time, really, waste
Speaker 7: of my time, wasted their time, waste of resources sounds it,
Speaker 7: But yeah, I did go I did go out a
Speaker 7: couple of times to go check it all out, and
Speaker 7: and I can see where they're all coming from. I
Speaker 7: didn't get involved in it. It's kind of just spectate.
Speaker 7: But when you think about it, I'll be keeping an
Speaker 7: eye on it over the last well eleven years or so.
Speaker 7: And people just can't afford to get into professional drifting
Speaker 7: at that point. And the reason why they go out
Speaker 7: to the middle of nowhere is for the respect of
Speaker 7: the community when it comes down to it. They're trying
Speaker 7: to go out to the most romance, all of the
Speaker 7: most remote areas they can think of, so they don't
Speaker 7: disturb people's sleeps. They don't do too much to mess
Speaker 7: up the roads, but you'll just see the police come
Speaker 7: along and just chase them around all night, and that
Speaker 7: just creates more havoc because everybody's running away, people are
Speaker 7: trying to find different spots. Yeah, it's just chaos. So yeah,
Speaker 7: what someone else is saying, if they did give them
Speaker 7: a dedicated spot in the middle of nowhere, yeah, they'd
Speaker 7: go to it.
Speaker 16: No worries.
Speaker 3: Is a good cow the super.
Speaker 7: Oh yeah yeah, but I'm thinking about getting rid of it.
Speaker 3: To be honest, it's not worth it, or it is
Speaker 3: worth it.
Speaker 7: Well, the sentimental value, it's it's pretty high up there.
Speaker 7: But with all the harassment and I'm receiving more being profiled,
Speaker 7: I just don't think it's worth it. I might just
Speaker 7: swop up for classic American muscle car lowrider or something,
Speaker 7: just because you don't exactly see what Rod's classics and
Speaker 7: low writers getting pulled over constantly?
Speaker 3: How many times a week? Would this happened a month?
Speaker 7: Uh, not so much anymore. But the latest thing, I
Speaker 7: was going through town just three o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 7: They went over to a friend's. Well we were just
Speaker 7: playing games all night, watching movies, but we go get
Speaker 7: some food pass through town. This was on June the
Speaker 7: first and next thing, you know, I'm getting profiled because
Speaker 7: it's three in the morning. I've literally got some pickup
Speaker 7: strips and some strips on my lap as I'm driving
Speaker 7: through town. Next thing you know, I'm getting arrested and
Speaker 7: pulled out of the car.
Speaker 3: They're resting you on the grounds.
Speaker 7: Well yeah, I'm taking that through the course at the moment,
Speaker 7: but realistically there was no real grounds. If I'm pounded
Speaker 7: the car, it's just classic profiling.
Speaker 3: What charge did they reached you for?
Speaker 7: Well that's the tricky part. So I'm driving through town
Speaker 7: down on the side of the road. There's no cop
Speaker 7: stop or anything, any signals puts the stand out. Well,
Speaker 7: he wants me to stop, and I think you did
Speaker 7: say the words stopped. So I was like, in New Zealand,
Speaker 7: you have the right to know you're being stopped. You
Speaker 7: can't request that and they should provide that. So I asked,
Speaker 7: as the police officer, you know, why am I being stopped?
Speaker 7: What is the reason? Which he didn't provide. I asked
Speaker 7: him again, you know, if you can give me a
Speaker 7: reason why I should be stopping, because I have the
Speaker 7: right to know, then I'll stop. Just tell me, like
Speaker 7: I do you want to do a breath test? Do
Speaker 7: you want to do a license shack? Just tell me
Speaker 7: and I'll stop. He just ends up pulling out his
Speaker 7: pepper spray, ripping up like ripping open the door, just
Speaker 7: starts getting the aggress of trying to rip my keys
Speaker 7: out of the ignition. So I'm sitting there, got my
Speaker 7: friend over here next to me, he's setting a wall
Speaker 7: and we're both like, what the hecks going on here? Wow?
Speaker 7: So there is there is a downside to all of
Speaker 7: us in the sense that there is genuine car enthusiasts
Speaker 7: that get the bad rep or being a boy racer
Speaker 7: just because they own a Japanese vehicle.
Speaker 3: Nice to hear from me, David, thank you for you,
Speaker 3: Thank for you, honesty, Peyton, Marcus, welcome, there you go,
Speaker 3: and there Marcus.
Speaker 24: Yeah, it's good talking at the boy of races. I
Speaker 24: agree what Jack said. He was right to what he
Speaker 24: was saying. So I think, you know, we're going to
Speaker 24: do something for them because hearing you Plymouth were spending
Speaker 24: millions and dollars on a sports stadium that they call
Speaker 24: it the Hub, new netball courts and all that sort
Speaker 24: of thing. So we know, like Jack said, he sort
Speaker 24: of much said it all like you know, sort of
Speaker 24: safety in that as well, like you that previous call
Speaker 24: or said as well. But I think as a community
Speaker 24: we have to do something for them, like build something
Speaker 24: for them because they're out here in the industrial areas.
Speaker 24: If you've got kids in that and that you know
Speaker 24: they're going to do their stuff, you can do whatever
Speaker 24: you like. Maybe we should heads together as a counselors
Speaker 24: the government too, and we have places like there have
Speaker 24: the scrap of speedway here in Strafford, your Mary, Marya
Speaker 24: in Auckland. There's plenty of facilities around. Maybe we've got
Speaker 24: to charge them like.
Speaker 25: You.
Speaker 24: They got to have the vehicles are going to be
Speaker 24: warranted to dance to the they do.
Speaker 8: Build something like that.
Speaker 24: They can do their thing like a twenty or ten
Speaker 24: dollars entry whatever it is, so they can get their frustrations.
Speaker 24: They can do what they want to do. And I
Speaker 24: think we just have to work together. That's what they do.
Speaker 24: They've been doing it for years.
Speaker 12: But let's build.
Speaker 24: Something for them, like save it for an hour or
Speaker 24: two from a major city like you Plymouth, Hamilton where
Speaker 24: it is. Build something for them. At least if you've
Speaker 24: got parents, you know they can do their thing in
Speaker 24: a safe area, and let's do it. They do something
Speaker 24: about it.
Speaker 3: Wow, were you one?
Speaker 24: Oh, we used to do a little bit about two
Speaker 24: like here, we scot up like that up there.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 24: Younger days you've got them up the mountain in the
Speaker 24: car parks and do wheelies in the big car park there.
Speaker 24: We they been going on for years, so we can't
Speaker 24: say we haven't been doing it. So let's let's do
Speaker 24: something for them. Because we spend all this money like
Speaker 24: the communities and swimming pools. Like I said before, it's
Speaker 24: still something for them. So appearance you know, they can
Speaker 24: your sons and your daughters, they can go to one
Speaker 24: of these facilities. It might cost a bit of money.
Speaker 24: Adult run that they say before. We have a lot
Speaker 24: of places it. They already have the facilities. They just
Speaker 24: charge them. I said there Sunday. Then they can do
Speaker 24: your thing and a safe environment and then the cops
Speaker 24: can jump on them. But you can say you don't
Speaker 24: have to do this stuff anymore because we've got facilities
Speaker 24: where you can do your stuff. Ten or twenty dollars
Speaker 24: entry fee and everybody wins.
Speaker 3: Real it nice to hear from your Pete. Thank you
Speaker 3: keep your calls coming through. Good evening, John AT's Marcus.
Speaker 11: Welcome, good evening market, can you hear me? Okay?
Speaker 3: Let unclear?
Speaker 11: Oh, thank you.
Speaker 28: I lived in Sweden for a number of years and
Speaker 28: the people over there are a little bit more pragmatic
Speaker 28: than we are when it comes to the boy raisers situation.
Speaker 28: And I just quickly explained to you that they have
Speaker 28: a kind of a crazy system. They have a car
Speaker 28: they make for boy races and it's Evolvo, people for car,
Speaker 28: and they called it an a tractor. You can find
Speaker 28: them on the into met there. And what they do
Speaker 28: they get the Evolvo can't put two gearboxes behind it,
Speaker 28: which slows the thing down. That match that in low
Speaker 28: low the car's got a top speed of thirty kilometers
Speaker 28: an hour, and that means a twelve year old kid
Speaker 28: can trove it on the roads, and they do. The
Speaker 28: farmers make them. All the kids turn up at school
Speaker 28: on the Evolvo duets they're called, you know, which is
Speaker 28: an interesting way just to look make sure the kids can.
Speaker 16: Drive while they're still young.
Speaker 28: And then after that they have developed in that country
Speaker 28: and I used to go and watch them. They are great.
Speaker 28: They're called folk racing and it's kind of evolved into
Speaker 28: rally cross but it's a circuit where it's half tassie
Speaker 28: on half dirt and you've probably seen it before on
Speaker 28: the motory sports. But there's folk racing. Just members of
Speaker 28: the family can go and all drive the same car
Speaker 28: and you know that it works out on your lap
Speaker 28: times and all that. But they embrace that. Those kind
Speaker 28: of people, the boy racers will go there. They learn
Speaker 28: how to drive properly in a controlled environment and you
Speaker 28: could just have a folk racing car, which is usually
Speaker 28: an old Volo years old and it's really you know,
Speaker 28: it's all positive. I can't see any negative about It's
Speaker 28: quite quite good. And I believe that you know that
Speaker 28: somehow we have to look at the boy racers here
Speaker 28: because every country in the world has got the same problem,
Speaker 28: and I thought Sweden addressed it as best of any
Speaker 28: and I've ever seen. Thank you for listening to that.
Speaker 3: My absolute pleasure.
Speaker 7: John.
Speaker 3: Do we go, Peter Marcus welcome? Hello, Yeah, Hi Peter, Wow,
Speaker 3: nice to hear from you.
Speaker 12: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Look, it's about boy racis. But look, we've never had
Speaker 4: a car in my life. I've never had a cup,
Speaker 4: but we do have boy wasaces here at the Marine
Speaker 4: uh in the Saar it's very dangerous.
Speaker 8: Look, we got elderly, we got.
Speaker 4: Children from school, you know, are we school for listeners?
Speaker 4: They all go home, They're all we do have. Boy
Speaker 4: wasaces zooming the cars fast days in the seat, no
Speaker 4: key for the for the in.
Speaker 3: The At three o'clock in the afternoon, are they racing?
Speaker 4: Are normally around the time, normally around three when they
Speaker 4: usually children go home. They walk through the theater same
Speaker 4: as the hourly they go pay their bills.
Speaker 8: They nick mid it round girl, And I'm.
Speaker 4: Like, oh no, no, not to just put your holy
Speaker 4: crossing the road early and uh, you know, tragedy ambulance.
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, you know, it's still a problem, tea. But Peter,
Speaker 3: thanks for that. Nice to talk to you. Twenty away
Speaker 3: from eleven hitdled twelve, Pete, a lot of people shouting
Speaker 3: out and during your sound effects as that they're excellent, excellent.
Speaker 9: MJ.
Speaker 3: Marcus welcome, Yeah.
Speaker 7: Is going good?
Speaker 3: Thank you.
Speaker 10: So I'm actually one of the main leaders of one.
Speaker 8: Of the car crews over and telling her, well go
Speaker 8: you yeah.
Speaker 10: Oh well it's probably a bit sarcastic, but we do
Speaker 10: actually try and keep everything like quite chill and talent
Speaker 10: basually runs like sticking to the rules and not drink
Speaker 10: driving and whatnot because we don't want to have any
Speaker 10: crashes and whatnot at our meetups. But it's the people
Speaker 10: that are the tracks that then put a bad name
Speaker 10: on everyone else. Nine times out of ten, if you
Speaker 10: look at the drivers of the cars, they're the ones
Speaker 10: that's sober and they're the ones that are more responsible. Yes,
Speaker 10: they're doing skids, but a lot of the times it's
Speaker 10: out in the big intersections and whatnot. So have the
Speaker 10: road blocked off, so that's at like there's going to
Speaker 10: be a car coming around the corner or anything like that.
Speaker 3: Is it unofficial that your leader or is it some
Speaker 3: sort of arequ So we run from croup.
Speaker 10: Chats and then you like we put out with the
Speaker 10: spots are and whatnot and when they're going to be
Speaker 10: happening in the group hats okay?
Speaker 3: So do you close the roads down yourself for the skids? Nah?
Speaker 10: Not ourselves. It's just people people that turn up can't
Speaker 10: really stop it.
Speaker 3: So you're doing skids on public roads?
Speaker 7: Are you?
Speaker 3: Nah? Nah?
Speaker 2: Nah? Nah?
Speaker 16: Where are you?
Speaker 3: Where you where you're doing them?
Speaker 8: Wow?
Speaker 7: Now on the back roads the country roads?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, But it's on roads roads. Yeah, yeah, so
Speaker 3: what do you how do you stop regular traffic?
Speaker 23: Wow?
Speaker 10: When you come around the corner and you see fifty
Speaker 10: cars blocking the road, okay, it's quite hard to get through.
Speaker 3: Okay. Many of the cars not registered or warranted? Okay,
Speaker 3: how many cars unregistered and unwarranted?
Speaker 26: No, see quite a feel of them.
Speaker 10: Are Like you'll get the ones that will come on
Speaker 10: a trailer and whatnot that would be built in garages,
Speaker 10: and then they'll throw them on a trailer to get
Speaker 10: them there to the to a spot so they're not
Speaker 10: getting pulled over on the way. And then most of
Speaker 10: the drivers that are doing the skids a full licens
Speaker 10: got everything in order because.
Speaker 7: They know their attention is hot.
Speaker 10: Like, if you're heading into one of the spots, the
Speaker 10: chance to getting pulled over are pretty high.
Speaker 7: And no matter what car you're driving.
Speaker 3: And how would how would the skid work? You just
Speaker 3: just tell me how the actual skid goes.
Speaker 10: Read it up and stunting the clutch and hold on.
Speaker 3: Well, just dubbed the language okay, yeah, okay, and your
Speaker 3: video that wow, I mean I guess the question say
Speaker 3: want to sound I don't want to sound add old
Speaker 3: fashion MJ. But is that the same as a boon out?
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, okay, you would have done some back.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't have actually, but anyway, okay, so they burn out, okay, yeah,
Speaker 3: and how close would people? What's the greatest danger that
Speaker 3: you reckon?
Speaker 10: The greatest danger?
Speaker 5: What do you mean?
Speaker 7: And what aspect?
Speaker 3: Well, who's going to get hurt of people standing standing
Speaker 3: close to someone's burnout goes bare? They could take out
Speaker 3: someone's legs or.
Speaker 10: Only the drunk idiots that walk up and everyone knows
Speaker 10: where the's good hap in the intersection, and you'll get
Speaker 10: people that will get way too on the person. Then
Speaker 10: they'll start getting real confidence running out into the middle
Speaker 10: or trying to slap the back of cars and whatnot.
Speaker 3: That's crazy, and they'll be wanting to video on their
Speaker 3: phone and stuff like that. So they drunk the young
Speaker 3: they're wondering out slapping the back of the car. Next thing,
Speaker 3: they've been hit.
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, because nine times out of ten, any of
Speaker 10: the videos of people getting run over or sweeps off
Speaker 10: their feet and whatnot, it's not the car losing control.
Speaker 10: It all that cars skidded through their countless times, and
Speaker 10: they've done the same thing but someone else has just
Speaker 10: skipped out trying to be the hero and all of
Speaker 10: a sudden on their ass.
Speaker 3: So it's pretty hard to control those drunken idiots that
Speaker 3: kind of come along for the for the thrill of
Speaker 3: an eight.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 8: So that's why oftentimes we'll just get the boys.
Speaker 10: That actually just want to be there to have a skid.
Speaker 10: We'll just getting them together and keep it all in
Speaker 10: between us and then get out and have no spectators
Speaker 10: out there.
Speaker 3: Okay, so you won't so you won't publicize. It'll be
Speaker 3: done on the down low.
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, and what it is one of our good
Speaker 10: intersections that's pretty quiet, and just get into.
Speaker 3: It, very illuminating him. Jo's JORDI greatly thank you. By
Speaker 3: the way, one more day of summing up by the
Speaker 3: judge before the mushrooms, before the trial, before the jury
Speaker 3: gets sequested to come up with their inevitable verdict and
Speaker 3: put Aaron Patterson behind bars for a long time. That'll
Speaker 3: be probably where I can't imagine the jury will be out,
Speaker 3: but they might go out to her on the next day.
Speaker 3: So I haven't seen much compelling evidence to think that
Speaker 3: she didn't do it. With the old d Hydrader goodness.
Speaker 3: So that'll be tomorrow, the next that it'll be Wednesday, Thursday.
Speaker 3: We should get averted on that one. We are talking
Speaker 3: boy races. The livin people think they need skid pads
Speaker 3: where they go and do it. I thought MJ was enlightening,
Speaker 3: you cause you imagine sort of the young pesses coming along,
Speaker 3: haven't been on the RTDs or something, wandering, oh, wandering around,
Speaker 3: slap in the back of the car. Good dunk. So
Speaker 3: that there's some pretty ganali videos out there of people
Speaker 3: doing that sort of stuff. You want to comment, it's
Speaker 3: nine from eleven with you till twelve people of New
Speaker 3: Zealand get amongst an eight hundred and eighty ten eighty.
Speaker 3: No one knows what's happened to the enriched uranium be
Speaker 3: someway safe. Seems like it's just in conventional barrels. For
Speaker 3: what I was seeing on the CNN when they're winning
Speaker 3: a or away, fifty six percent of Americans disapproved of
Speaker 3: the attack. So yeah, and that will change, I guess
Speaker 3: is we find out how it goes, how the ceasefire goes,
Speaker 3: where they get into a war, a long war. Ate
Speaker 3: away from eleven. My name is Marcus welcome, good evening
Speaker 3: a Hunter.
Speaker 4: Hello, how are you doing good?
Speaker 3: Thanks? Hunter?
Speaker 26: I noticed you were talking about the boy racers from
Speaker 26: Leven and how they were well skid pads would be
Speaker 26: ideal to keep them off the street. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 26: I think it's a well, you know the skate parks
Speaker 26: around the skaters. I understand. It's like a concrete path.
Speaker 26: It's big enough for like a car or two to
Speaker 26: just slit rip out of me, out out out of
Speaker 26: the suburbs. It would keep them well off the street.
Speaker 3: Would they use them? Hunter? Are you are you of
Speaker 3: that persuasion?
Speaker 10: Yeah?
Speaker 26: Yeah, no, I have a modified car. I get it.
Speaker 26: I would a hundred We would one hundred percent prefer
Speaker 26: to take it off the street if we had the choice,
Speaker 26: where do you do it?
Speaker 10: Now?
Speaker 26: I take it down I normally, if I do decide
Speaker 26: to go do it, I take it down to the
Speaker 26: industrial area at night, no one's around. It's wide enough
Speaker 26: the road generally. Yeah, if someone don't show up, I'll
Speaker 26: just say all right, I'm out of here.
Speaker 3: And basically what you're doing is people no longer racing,
Speaker 3: or what you're doing is just burnouts, right yeah?
Speaker 20: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Is it expensive for tires?
Speaker 26: Depends on what tires you get. If I am going
Speaker 26: to burn rubber, I'm not going to get a nice
Speaker 26: set of tires. Generally, I'll just go get a second
Speaker 26: hand set of tires. It's the dumped already shut them.
Speaker 3: Oh okay. So and how how much how many days
Speaker 3: with the skids would you get on those.
Speaker 26: From being generous?
Speaker 4: Two?
Speaker 26: Maybe three?
Speaker 3: Oh okay, okay, okay, so it's gonna be hand and
Speaker 3: twenty bucks for a couple of days of burnouts. Okay,
Speaker 3: So you know, drifting like on fast to the furious,
Speaker 3: people aren't doing that. It's it's it's not as. It's
Speaker 3: not as because that would be quite dangerous if people
Speaker 3: are like doing drifting around corners. But it mainly is
Speaker 3: just burnouts, is it.
Speaker 26: Yeah, I'm not going to say people don't do it.
Speaker 26: There are the occasional people that will go do it,
Speaker 26: but the majority of the time it's just burnouts.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, because I imagine if you're having having illegal
Speaker 3: drifting races, then I imagine that really could take out
Speaker 3: some pedestrians.
Speaker 26: Yeah, yeah, no, I don't. I don't support that whatsoever.
Speaker 26: That's gonna end in tears.
Speaker 3: Are your is your car?
Speaker 26: Warranted at the moment.
Speaker 3: Yes, Okay, what do you see as the great danger?
Speaker 26: The danger is at this stage, it's it's most of
Speaker 26: the time it's people getting too close to try film
Speaker 26: from social media when they're trying to, you know, rip
Speaker 26: their tires. Generally they do need to swing the car
Speaker 26: a little bit and better rubor is needed.
Speaker 4: But it's just.
Speaker 3: Is people getting quite on a hits on social media
Speaker 3: with things like burnouts. Is it quite a big audience
Speaker 3: for that stuff?
Speaker 26: Depends?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it can be.
Speaker 26: If the burnout is big enough and yeah, you get
Speaker 26: some good footage, you're definitely there is an audience for it.
Speaker 3: Have you got your own social media page yourself?
Speaker 26: Hunter, I'm not for burnouts? No, No, I won't put
Speaker 26: that stuff online. It's I would rather not encourage people
Speaker 26: to do it on the streets.
Speaker 20: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I mean the way you sounds quite sensible. It sounds
Speaker 3: like if they had a place that people would go.
Speaker 3: I mean, you wouldn't need that bigan area, would you.
Speaker 12: No?
Speaker 26: No, The place I use is maybe like a fifty
Speaker 26: meter a fifteen maybe like a fifty meter wide road
Speaker 26: that's like a cold de sack right at the end.
Speaker 26: That's that's that's enough room to give my car onto it.
Speaker 26: And it's a big board selcan.
Speaker 3: So you've got to go buy four secondhand tires and
Speaker 3: then for one hundred and twenty bucks, and then you've
Speaker 3: got to check your car up and put those four
Speaker 3: tires on, and then I'll give you two.
Speaker 26: Days generally, just too mates, because of.
Speaker 3: Of course, of course, And how does it take to
Speaker 3: get the tires on?
Speaker 21: Not that long?
Speaker 26: Not that long time. I can do it, and I
Speaker 26: can do it about twenty minutes.
Speaker 3: Well I never thought about that. And then you get
Speaker 3: two days worth of those tires.
Speaker 26: Yeah, yeah, I could go by brand new ones if
Speaker 26: I want, but it's just not worth the money.
Speaker 3: But there must be money in the tire companies for
Speaker 3: all of this. They must be loving it.
Speaker 26: To a certain extent.
Speaker 3: Yes, it should get Bont's it's nice to talk, Hunter,
Speaker 3: found you enlightening. Also, there we go. Sounds like a
Speaker 3: very reasonable guy, doesn't he? Brilliant Marcus. The problem with
Speaker 3: building the boy races a track is then the government
Speaker 3: has endorsed at what comes next? Well, they endorse all
Speaker 3: sorts of things. Lookers on five dollar note on Hillary
Speaker 3: wet up the mountain, Mountain climb and that's not safe.
Speaker 3: Government endorses that. There's always people taking risks. What made
Speaker 3: this country great risks? Look at the old guy split
Speaker 3: in the at and all that radiation. He didn't care.
Speaker 3: Just split it away. He goes split, split, split. Now
Speaker 3: we've got nuclear fusion. Goodness me. By the way, if
Speaker 3: you're going to the rugby in Dneda and there is
Speaker 3: a train from Mosgiel, well there should always be a
Speaker 3: train from Mosgile. That's a train that they should be
Speaker 3: bringing back because it's double tracked and there's tunnels that
Speaker 3: would be better than the bus. Good evening, Donor. It's Marcus, welcome.
Speaker 9: Hello Marcus, just quickly, just on that the anthem.
Speaker 22: It's what was a dide.
Speaker 9: We were sitting in a pub and we all looked
Speaker 9: at each other and said who died? But anyway, that was.
Speaker 3: Hang on it was it good? Were you You weren't
Speaker 3: in Canterbury?
Speaker 7: Were you?
Speaker 23: No?
Speaker 9: I was in Northland? Was the only chief supporter in
Speaker 9: the pub?
Speaker 23: Was there?
Speaker 3: Was there a good atmosphere at the pub with people
Speaker 3: watching it?
Speaker 16: Yes?
Speaker 9: Yeah, god, you know no, it was good even though
Speaker 9: the warriors had just lost, but we were okay, Yeah, Okay, anyway,
Speaker 9: what you just read out something about somebody really worried
Speaker 9: about this son or not because I had to collect them.
Speaker 9: Sixteen year old is an al teaser. I'd love to
Speaker 9: know how a sixteen year old could afford the al teaser.
Speaker 3: How much is it worth?
Speaker 9: Apparently they're thirty to sixty grand because they're all souped
Speaker 9: up a bit of her by the time they've done
Speaker 9: what they need.
Speaker 3: Cont it's his independence. You know, he might be working
Speaker 3: stacking groceries or stacking shelves.
Speaker 9: Yeah, my kids had little, cheapy cars and the ones
Speaker 9: they could afford to with cheap.
Speaker 20: I just I really.
Speaker 9: You know, whoever the parent is, maybe they could give
Speaker 9: you a callin and tell us exactly how their kid
Speaker 9: could afford the.
Speaker 3: Old We're going to start judging the parents now.
Speaker 9: No no, no, no no, no, well might, but no,
Speaker 9: I'd love to know what sort of jobs they're doing,
Speaker 9: because there's the whole stack of kids. I'd love to
Speaker 9: get them doing those jobs.
Speaker 3: On the train between five nine hundred and twenty grand
Speaker 3: for a medium price for our teaser sety nine dollars.
Speaker 9: Excellent, okay before the souping, and I'd still love to
Speaker 9: know the sixteen year old that's earned that sort of money.
Speaker 3: Good on them.
Speaker 9: I'd love to know what they're doing. But yeah, no interesting.
Speaker 3: So he's the latest from the United States. Visibly furious,
Speaker 3: Trump launches if word rent at Israel at Iran on
Speaker 3: live TV for breaking ceasefire before telling Nitya, who do
Speaker 3: not drop those bombs? Donald Trump has vented his fury
Speaker 3: with a foul mouthed rant at Israel and Iram dropping
Speaker 3: the F word. Is he accused both of violeting a
Speaker 3: cease fary broken last night. The art of the deal.
Speaker 3: We've got two countries who have been fighting for so
Speaker 3: long and so hard, they don't know what the if
Speaker 3: they're doing, he says. He stormed onto the marine one
Speaker 3: a helicopter away from the press. The cease fire agreement
Speaker 3: appears to be in tant is just hours after coming
Speaker 3: into effect, with the warring art jenemies accusing one another
Speaker 3: of launching strikes almost immediately after they agreed to stop
Speaker 3: their tit for tet attacks. By the way, just as
Speaker 3: an aside, can I say once again what an extraordinary
Speaker 3: looking helicopter that is. I'm not really a helicopter first,
Speaker 3: but every time, I said, I'm just totally in awe
Speaker 3: of it. Marine one.
Speaker 7: What is it?
Speaker 3: It's massive, but just kind of has the one. We
Speaker 3: must have massive rotors, jet to gorgeous chopper. Unbelievable.
Speaker 7: What is it?
Speaker 3: A VH ninety two, a Patriot white tops. Any Marine
Speaker 3: Corp aircraft carrying the Vice Prison, United States without the
Speaker 3: prison has the call signed Marine two.
Speaker 2: Ah.
Speaker 3: I think there's a few of them. As of two
Speaker 3: thousand and nine, Marine one had never had an extent
Speaker 3: or been attacked. However, in two thousand and six, prison
Speaker 3: George Bosh George W. Bush boarded Marine one with the
Speaker 3: departing press secretary, but the helicopter would not work, so
Speaker 3: the prison lifted a car. By the way, the former
Speaker 3: VH three Marine ones at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library.
Speaker 3: Mess of Marine one is the proferdal tunate to motorkids,
Speaker 3: which can be expensive and logically difficult.
Speaker 7: There you go.
Speaker 3: Anyway. As a security measure, Marine one often flies in
Speaker 3: a group of as many as five identical helicopters. One
Speaker 3: helicopter carries a president while the other serve as decoys.
Speaker 3: Upon take off, these helicopters shift in formation to obscure
Speaker 3: location of the president. This has been referred to as
Speaker 3: a presidential shell game. Marine one is also equiped with
Speaker 3: stentimentary anti missile counter measures, such as flares to counter
Speaker 3: hexity missiles and cheff to counter radio guided missiles. To
Speaker 3: edit the security of Marine one, every member of HTMIX
Speaker 3: one is required to pass a Yankee White background check
Speaker 3: before touching any of the helicopters used for presential travel.
Speaker 3: I found that interesting to get in touch with talking
Speaker 3: boy racers and Trump and the anthem at the rugby
Speaker 3: that was shocking, apparently, Marcus. When the anthem is played
Speaker 3: in slow tempo, try and sing the words of twinkle
Speaker 3: twiggered little start of the music, and you'll find that
Speaker 3: that's a match because the anthem was written to that tune. Marcus.
Speaker 3: Even in Roman times people complained about young men racing
Speaker 3: through the streets on their chariots. Yes, the cost of
Speaker 3: staff for counselors high. The Sea of and n City
Speaker 3: Council's paid four hundred andy three thousand. What does she do, Oh,
Speaker 3: she does a great deal. She's like a sea of
Speaker 3: a big company. It's a fairly big job in a council.
Speaker 3: Chief executive You've got a huge number of staff under
Speaker 3: your under your watch. It's a big business I think
Speaker 3: it's pretty standard or council chief exexcutive. But because its
Speaker 3: a big business position, you need people have an extremely
Speaker 3: high caliber for those jobs. So yeah, they're not just
Speaker 3: something that goes to meetings. It's something that runs the
Speaker 3: whole shebang. And that pay rate would be set by
Speaker 3: the councils after input from the high salaries commissioned all
Speaker 3: sorts of people. So yeah, you want have a quality
Speaker 3: person running the whole show, otherwise it would be a disaster. Anyway. Oh,
Speaker 3: by the way, this is Trump just before he goes
Speaker 3: to go on the helicopter. Have listened to this.
Speaker 17: Israel as soon as we made the deal, they came
Speaker 17: out and they dropped the load of bombs, the likes
Speaker 17: of which I've never seen before, the biggest load that
Speaker 17: we've seen. I'm not happy with Israel. You know, when
Speaker 17: I say, okay, now you have twelve hours, you don't
Speaker 17: go out in the first hour, just drop everything you
Speaker 17: have on it. So I'm not happy with them. I'm
Speaker 17: not happy with Iron either, But I'm really unhappy if
Speaker 17: Israel's going out this morning because the one rocket that
Speaker 17: didn't land, that was shot perhaps by mistake, that didn't land.
Speaker 17: I'm not happy about that. Have we basically have two
Speaker 17: countries that have been fighting so long and so hard
Speaker 17: that they don't no what they're doing. You understand that.
Speaker 3: He is furious, looks like he's gonna blow old Trump.
Speaker 3: God help us. Anyway, there we go. Yeah, not happy
Speaker 3: at all. Twenty five to twelve, looking forward to you.
Speaker 3: Drag racing, that's what run about, Marcus Man. Years ago
Speaker 3: I went to queak Key Street drag. Someone put d'sil
Speaker 3: on the road, all the flash cars taking off trying
Speaker 3: to do burnout. Me and Thisss and Sunny drove off,
Speaker 3: nicety friends. They just started a great burnout. I had
Speaker 3: no idea. There we go a lot of people who
Speaker 3: have enjoyed their days doing burnout, and we've got Trump swearing.
Speaker 3: Seems quite unstatesman like. Is ditch the tie and the hat.
Speaker 3: Least surprising news ever, there's a cease fight didn't hold, Marcus.
Speaker 3: I wasn't watching DC a couple of weeks ago and
Speaker 3: saw Trump fly out in the white that spectacular helicopter,
Speaker 3: a beautiful green color and so shiny. Wayne AT's Marcus Welcomes.
Speaker 5: Okay, I don't know how many people know about it,
Speaker 5: but Tony Quinn has put a big skid pad in
Speaker 5: down at Hampton Downs down there that people can go
Speaker 5: there and use. I think you've got to pay a
Speaker 5: nominal fee that go user. But it's a massive, big
Speaker 5: concrete skid pad and.
Speaker 4: I didn't know that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's huge. It's right out and side, right out
Speaker 5: in out of their main office. I've been down there
Speaker 5: a few times. I don't been on there myself, but
Speaker 5: I've been down there, watched the occasional day down there
Speaker 5: and there's it gets fairly well used, but not I
Speaker 5: don't know how often it's opened.
Speaker 3: It's quite a big deal, that isn't It's quite There's
Speaker 3: apartments and all sorts of things there, aren't there?
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, massively a very expensive apartment.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think you have to be a car person to
Speaker 3: want to stay there, wouldn't you.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, yeah, well I think a lot of them are.
Speaker 3: I'm just to see what I'm looking at on Google Maps.
Speaker 3: Where is the skid peg out the front of it?
Speaker 7: Is it?
Speaker 5: Yeah? Yeah, out? I suppose it's probably about thirty meters
Speaker 5: by thirty meters looks huge.
Speaker 3: Oh, I'll see if I can get some more information
Speaker 3: about that, Wayne, Thanks for that. There we go. That's
Speaker 3: just south of Auckland people, just just south of the
Speaker 3: drags at Meddy medi Anyway, twenty two to twelve, you
Speaker 3: on talk Marcus to the end here till midnight. Got
Speaker 3: to be a part of it. Trump is furious, an
Speaker 3: explete of ridden. So yeah, well, he thought he had
Speaker 3: done the great thing. Now it appears that perhaps they
Speaker 3: are not obliterated in a way he told them. I
Speaker 3: suppose do he want of the hum out of there
Speaker 3: because now it's sort of been sequestered. Anyway, guestplay for
Speaker 3: stories to tell us whether he's done the right thing
Speaker 3: in time? Eight hundred and eighty, ten eighty. I don't know.
Speaker 3: It's Marcus, welcome, give.
Speaker 16: You hear Marcus, could hear your voice?
Speaker 3: Thank you?
Speaker 16: Just a quick note on current situation with President Trump.
Speaker 16: I think he's he's upset because it what's happened with
Speaker 16: the supposed breach of ceasepies. It jeopardizes his a long
Speaker 16: term vision of a Nobel Priest Peace Prize. I think
Speaker 16: he's got of annoys him the most. Oh that's my theory, and.
Speaker 3: I think he probably saw himself this would be his
Speaker 3: legacy move. He would be the guy that stopped Iran
Speaker 3: getting the nuclear getting nuclear warheads. But you know, yeah,
Speaker 3: some say it could have accelerated them because there'd be
Speaker 3: so few curious. It's what they'll do. They'll double down
Speaker 3: and be yeah so I mean goodness.
Speaker 16: Oh and in the essence here if you started this
Speaker 16: because he anyway, he took he he broke the curry, he.
Speaker 3: Pulled them out. Yeah, he pulled them out, the inspectors
Speaker 3: and took your.
Speaker 8: Yes.
Speaker 3: Nice to hear from you, thank you. That's I need
Speaker 3: some sleep. But yes, no one liked the anthem and mainspreads.
Speaker 3: Shouldn't have set them up like that. They should actually
Speaker 3: get people and actually make sure they're going to do
Speaker 3: a good performance. Give them the proper tempo. They'll just
Speaker 3: be young musicians trying to get out in life. They
Speaker 3: don't want to be vilified for how bad they did.
Speaker 3: You know, they make them do it proper or you
Speaker 3: get western ra, but you don't set them up to fail.
Speaker 3: That's terrible. They have families that was tuning into it.
Speaker 3: How do you think we went, mum, Well it was
Speaker 3: but slow. It's going to protect people from things like that.
Speaker 3: That's not good, is it?
Speaker 7: Oh boy?
Speaker 3: Anyway?
