1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,800
Speaker 1: The more or moer if you're in the South Island,

2
00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:05,520
Speaker 1: and in this case we are was a visionary bird

3
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:08,800
Speaker 1: well ahead of its time. Bringing them back from extinction

4
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:12,120
Speaker 1: makes perfect sense. We'll be setting them free. They can

5
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:15,160
Speaker 1: finally live their b ls, live their best lives, spread

6
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:17,640
Speaker 1: their wings metaphorically, of course, because they don't if you

7
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 1: have wings. But they'll be free in this brave, new

8
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 1: modern world. Firstly, they're vegan, so hip and trendy box

9
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 1: number one, big tick. Wait till they try the incredible burger,

10
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: that's the faux meet burger. They just will blow their

11
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:37,880
Speaker 1: minds after six hundred years of sleep, the eggplant sandwiches

12
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 1: with the vegan slow they're going to love that. Wait

13
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 1: for it, though, they get woker. The women are dominant

14
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: one and a half times bigger than the men, did

15
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 1: you know this is a true fact, and two and

16
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 1: a half times the weight. Very trendy progressive box number two.

17
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 1: Tick number three. Turns out they were quite oppressed back

18
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:00,240
Speaker 1: in the day. Victims, you could call them all so

19
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 1: very trendy today, hunted to extinction by men with spears,

20
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: slaughtered eaten, and you know what that means. In twenty

21
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: twenty five, lived experience. Congratulations, wait for the wellness podcast

22
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 1: and the Oprah interview. And then there's the obvious but

23
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 1: awkward issue of being a bird with no wings, a

24
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: bird that can't fly? Can we so embarrassed by this

25
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 1: that they only come out at night in case anyone

26
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:31,120
Speaker 1: notices this deformity? But ma up to three and a

27
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 1: half meters tall in broad daylight quite hard to miss.

28
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,040
Speaker 1: It's you know, you can't hide behind a tree, can you?

29
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: You can't hide behind another bird. You're the biggest one

30
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:44,479
Speaker 1: in the bush. I'll stick out like the skytower anyway.

31
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 1: That'll be more fodder for the podcast, no doubt so.

32
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: To the mo who we will soon raise from the dead,

33
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 1: Welcome to a brand new world. Welcome to the world

34
