I 151 00:07:02,373 --> 00:07:04,453 Speaker 2: know what they want to. They want to because it 152 00:07:04,493 --> 00:07:08,933 Speaker 2: causes more descruption and gets more you know, cold olemages. 153 00:07:09,213 --> 00:07:09,413 Speaker 5: Right. 154 00:07:09,533 --> 00:07:12,893 Speaker 2: Yeah, But should we just have places that are a 155 00:07:12,933 --> 00:07:16,773 Speaker 2: blanket no?

Yes, protest. Yeah, this is 222 00:09:48,413 --> 00:09:51,053 Speaker 2: a really interesting question. Hey guys, happy with the blanket 223 00:09:51,173 --> 00:09:53,173 Speaker 2: no protest for the harbor Bridge, but does that mean 224 00:09:53,252 --> 00:09:57,573 Speaker 2: the marathon can't do it as well? Cheers from Craig. Look, no, 225 00:09:58,372 --> 00:10:02,093 Speaker 2: I think the marathon's that's totally different. That's a huge 226 00:10:02,093 --> 00:10:05,533 Speaker 2: amount of people getting together. That's a that's a community 227 00:10:05,573 --> 00:10:06,613 Speaker 2: wide thing. 228 00:10:06,933 --> 00:10:07,852 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not. 229 00:10:08,533 --> 00:10:11,372 Speaker 2: It's not pushing any barrow. In fact, if you're pushing 230 00:10:11,413 --> 00:10:13,412 Speaker 2: a barrow on a marathon then that's impressive. I've seen 231 00:10:13,453 --> 00:10:15,892 Speaker 2: people that have run marathons knitting scarfs. Have you seen 232 00:10:15,933 --> 00:10:16,492 Speaker 2: those marathons? 233 00:10:16,573 --> 00:10:17,973 Speaker 3: No, but they are legit they doing. 234 00:10:17,973 --> 00:10:20,172 Speaker 2: At the end of the marathon, you get your time 235 00:10:20,372 --> 00:10:22,173 Speaker 2: and the length of your scarf is that right? 236 00:10:22,333 --> 00:10:22,693 Speaker 3: That's true. 237 00:10:22,732 --> 00:10:23,252 Speaker 2: It's a real thing. 238 00:10:23,372 --> 00:10:25,813 Speaker 3: That's amazing, that's incredibastic, so totally great. 239 00:10:25,892 --> 00:10:29,372 Speaker 2: I totally support that. But then again, I mean, can't 240 00:10:29,372 --> 00:10:30,732 Speaker 2: you just run the marathon if you want to go 241 00:10:30,852 --> 00:10:33,492 Speaker 2: across the bridge, just wave your protest flag as you 242 00:10:33,573 --> 00:10:36,453 Speaker 2: run the marathon. Just register into the marathon, give your 243 00:10:36,533 --> 00:10:39,893 Speaker 2: name as whatever your protests and wave your flag as 244 00:10:39,892 --> 00:10:40,453 Speaker 2: you're running over. 245 00:10:40,612 --> 00:10:43,612 Speaker 3: You found a massive loophole. Oh one hundred and eighty 246 00:10:43,653 --> 00:10:44,612 Speaker 3: ten eighty is that number? 247 00:10:44,813 --> 00:10:47,693 Speaker 2: Tony, Welcome the show, gentlemen. 248 00:10:47,732 --> 00:10:49,853 Speaker 7: I surely breeth comment. The first one is I don't 249 00:10:49,852 --> 00:10:53,652 Speaker 7: think it should be allowed because by awesome connecting one 250 00:10:53,732 --> 00:10:56,093 Speaker 7: side of the three to the other and the other 251 00:10:56,213 --> 00:10:58,573 Speaker 7: kill me. It would be that if some media see 252 00:10:58,892 --> 00:11:01,532 Speaker 7: a newspapers completely ignored it, never come at it, it 253 00:11:01,533 --> 00:11:02,372 Speaker 7: wouldn't do it again. 254 00:11:03,573 --> 00:11:05,893 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I guess it's hard to not cover 255 00:11:06,012 --> 00:11:08,933 Speaker 2: it if there's a massive disruption, because then the disruption 256 00:11:09,053 --> 00:11:11,612 Speaker 2: becomes the story. If you see what I'm saying, Tony. 257 00:11:12,453 --> 00:11:17,813 Speaker 7: Not really no, no, I think that you know as 258 00:11:17,892 --> 00:11:19,772 Speaker 7: much as it was. But he shouldn't be doing this 259 00:11:19,813 --> 00:11:21,852 Speaker 7: sort of stuff, and he's you know, he's got a 260 00:11:21,933 --> 00:11:23,172 Speaker 7: history for doing this sort of thing. 261 00:11:23,933 --> 00:11:25,813 Speaker 2: Is there anything Is there any protests that you would 262 00:11:25,892 --> 00:11:28,533 Speaker 2: support being allowed to use the bridge? Tony? 263 00:11:30,173 --> 00:11:32,532 Speaker 7: Not really No, I think I think it was a 264 00:11:32,612 --> 00:11:33,853 Speaker 7: situation in Australia was. 265 00:11:36,053 --> 00:11:36,333 Speaker 8: Different. 266 00:11:37,293 --> 00:11:39,773 Speaker 3: Yeah it was around the Sydney Opera House, I believe, 267 00:11:40,213 --> 00:11:42,852 Speaker 3: and yeah there was in particular protest that got a 268 00:11:42,892 --> 00:11:45,052 Speaker 3: bit out of hand. But I think they you're right, 269 00:11:45,093 --> 00:11:47,573 Speaker 3: well we'll look that up. But they made a blanket 270 00:11:47,653 --> 00:11:50,413 Speaker 3: band around any sort of protest around the Sydney Opera House, 271 00:11:50,492 --> 00:11:53,532 Speaker 3: which makes sense because again that's that's highly disruptive and 272 00:11:53,573 --> 00:11:54,813 Speaker 3: you've got tourists down there. 273 00:11:55,492 --> 00:11:59,052 Speaker 2: But but Tony, you support the right to protest. So 274 00:11:59,132 --> 00:12:00,892 Speaker 2: where do you think people should be allowed to protest? 275 00:12:00,892 --> 00:12:03,533 Speaker 2: Because you could argue wandering up George Street or Queen 276 00:12:03,612 --> 00:12:07,333 Speaker 2: Street or any main street in New Zealand causes all 277 00:12:07,413 --> 00:12:09,132 Speaker 2: kind of disruptions to buses. This as as such, So 278 00:12:10,132 --> 00:12:11,612 Speaker 2: where do you think you draw the line? Is it 279 00:12:11,813 --> 00:12:15,413 Speaker 2: just things like the Auckland Harbor Bridge and are there 280 00:12:15,453 --> 00:12:18,333 Speaker 2: any other things akin to the Auckland Harbor Bridge in 281 00:12:18,372 --> 00:12:19,252 Speaker 2: this country? 282 00:12:19,933 --> 00:12:23,173 Speaker 7: I think strategic excess ways. Look, I mean, if I mean, 283 00:12:23,252 --> 00:12:25,093 Speaker 7: I never want to go to Queen Street anyway. So 284 00:12:25,173 --> 00:12:26,813 Speaker 7: I mean, if they want to walk up Queen Street, 285 00:12:27,093 --> 00:12:29,693 Speaker 7: that's fine to me. I don't even like the area 286 00:12:29,813 --> 00:12:32,053 Speaker 7: now because you know, you know, people think of downtown 287 00:12:32,093 --> 00:12:35,532 Speaker 7: Auckland at the prison. But you know, yes, it's like 288 00:12:35,612 --> 00:12:38,252 Speaker 7: a bridge like that sort of thing. You know, there 289 00:12:38,293 --> 00:12:41,013 Speaker 7: could be emergency vehicles or anything having to be rerouted. 290 00:12:41,053 --> 00:12:41,653 Speaker 7: It's not fair. 291 00:12:42,252 --> 00:12:45,413 Speaker 2: Yeah, So I think even if you get approval, there's 292 00:12:45,413 --> 00:12:50,893 Speaker 2: still has to be thoroughyar for, it has to fit. 293 00:12:51,333 --> 00:12:54,213 Speaker 2: It can't be an amount of people that that a 294 00:12:54,293 --> 00:12:58,373 Speaker 2: car can't get through. If you see what I'm saying, Toning, I. 295 00:12:58,453 --> 00:13:02,173 Speaker 7: Wasn't aware of that, but I just think, like, mean, 296 00:13:02,252 --> 00:13:04,652 Speaker 7: you just ignored it, and you know he wouldn't do 297 00:13:04,693 --> 00:13:06,892 Speaker 7: it again. But obviously from what you're saying, they're not 298 00:13:06,973 --> 00:13:07,532 Speaker 7: able to do that. 299 00:13:08,612 --> 00:13:10,492 Speaker 3: I hear the logic and the media side of things. 300 00:13:10,533 --> 00:13:12,933 Speaker 3: But the tough part with that, Tony is media get 301 00:13:12,973 --> 00:13:14,932 Speaker 3: accused of all sorts of bias, and I think some 302 00:13:15,053 --> 00:13:17,933 Speaker 3: of that's fair. But if they don't cover one sort 303 00:13:17,973 --> 00:13:20,453 Speaker 3: of protest and then they give a headline to another protest, 304 00:13:20,533 --> 00:13:22,932 Speaker 3: I mean that is you know, that's certainly what the 305 00:13:23,132 --> 00:13:25,573 Speaker 3: not what the media should do. They should report on 306 00:13:25,653 --> 00:13:28,132 Speaker 3: what is happening as a news event. And if it's 307 00:13:28,173 --> 00:13:31,053 Speaker 3: thirty thousand people that are marching across the Harbor Bridge, 308 00:13:31,132 --> 00:13:33,333 Speaker 3: that is a news event. Doesn't really matter what they're protesting. 309 00:13:34,533 --> 00:13:36,813 Speaker 7: Well, you know, sometimes life isn't fair, is it? And 310 00:13:36,933 --> 00:13:37,933 Speaker 7: people have got to learn that. 311 00:13:38,012 --> 00:13:40,493 Speaker 2: You know, telling what will definitely make news. You've got 312 00:13:40,533 --> 00:13:43,132 Speaker 2: thirty thousand people. I mean, if you seen what can 313 00:13:43,173 --> 00:13:47,012 Speaker 2: happen with harmonic resonance, Oh my goodness, that the whole 314 00:13:47,053 --> 00:13:49,653 Speaker 2: bridge might go down with thirty thousand people or marching 315 00:13:49,693 --> 00:13:51,493 Speaker 2: in step. Hey, thank you so much for your call. 316 00:13:52,093 --> 00:13:57,132 Speaker 2: Tony this Texas says, Hey, Tamaki is too old and 317 00:13:57,213 --> 00:14:00,492 Speaker 2: fat to run a marathon. He's also too fat to 318 00:14:00,573 --> 00:14:03,012 Speaker 2: run a bath over the bridge ban or protests on 319 00:14:03,053 --> 00:14:06,492 Speaker 2: the bridge. That's from Girard. I just ran a marathon recently. 320 00:14:06,612 --> 00:14:08,772 Speaker 2: You did, and there were quite a few old fat 321 00:14:08,813 --> 00:14:12,093 Speaker 2: people that beat me.

Ten 374 00:16:29,533 --> 00:16:32,413 Speaker 3: eighty is a number to call, Murray. 375 00:16:32,453 --> 00:16:36,653 Speaker 2: Your thoughts on this, well, I look at it this way. 376 00:16:36,933 --> 00:16:40,093 Speaker 10: It's a it's a public asset. Now if I wanted 377 00:16:40,173 --> 00:16:43,693 Speaker 10: to use a town hall, I would have to rent it. 378 00:16:44,333 --> 00:16:47,013 Speaker 10: So let's say the Harbor Bridge and the infrastructure around 379 00:16:47,053 --> 00:16:50,893 Speaker 10: it's worth ten billion. Ten return on that would be 380 00:16:50,973 --> 00:16:54,093 Speaker 10: one billion a year. So work out what one day 381 00:16:54,413 --> 00:16:55,653 Speaker 10: was and make them pay. 382 00:16:56,373 --> 00:16:58,053 Speaker 3: You're a thinker, Murray, you're a thinker. 383 00:16:59,053 --> 00:17:03,572 Speaker 2: Well, to get approval from the New Zealand Transport Agency, 384 00:17:04,333 --> 00:17:07,413 Speaker 2: to get your for your protest to go ahead across 385 00:17:07,453 --> 00:17:10,053 Speaker 2: the bridge, you do have to pay for the costs 386 00:17:10,733 --> 00:17:13,533 Speaker 2: and for and there's a bit of things. The organizers 387 00:17:13,613 --> 00:17:18,133 Speaker 2: must pay all planning, design, signage, traffic control costs. They 388 00:17:18,213 --> 00:17:20,613 Speaker 2: must pay a cash bond equivalent to fifty percent of 389 00:17:20,613 --> 00:17:23,133 Speaker 2: the estimated cost for use of the bridge at least 390 00:17:23,173 --> 00:17:26,173 Speaker 2: four weeks before the event, So they have to pay 391 00:17:26,293 --> 00:17:29,773 Speaker 2: for any additional costs. But that doesn't it's not the 392 00:17:29,813 --> 00:17:31,773 Speaker 2: rent of the bridge, like as you say with the 393 00:17:31,853 --> 00:17:35,173 Speaker 2: town hall. And it's also not covering whatever equation you 394 00:17:35,213 --> 00:17:38,693 Speaker 2: could do, the inconvenience and the loss of productivity for 395 00:17:38,733 --> 00:17:39,053 Speaker 2: the city. 396 00:17:40,373 --> 00:17:42,693 Speaker 10: Yeah, that's that's how I see it. If you if 397 00:17:42,733 --> 00:17:45,093 Speaker 10: you want to use a public asset, you have to pay. 398 00:17:45,173 --> 00:17:50,733 Speaker 10: We're in a user pays, and Tammicky himself likes user pays, 399 00:17:51,213 --> 00:17:53,733 Speaker 10: So work out what it's worth the rent for a 400 00:17:53,853 --> 00:17:55,653 Speaker 10: day and rent them and he has to pay all 401 00:17:55,693 --> 00:17:57,493 Speaker 10: the costs, saying, you know, you have to pay your 402 00:17:57,493 --> 00:18:00,293 Speaker 10: own bounces and stuff like that if you rent a hall. 403 00:18:00,813 --> 00:18:11,853 Speaker 3: Yeah, so so ten one billion, My mess is terrible, 404 00:18:11,893 --> 00:18:13,493 Speaker 3: but it's a lot of money. It's a lot of money. 405 00:18:14,453 --> 00:18:14,653 Speaker 4: Yeah. 406 00:18:14,693 --> 00:18:17,373 Speaker 2: Well, I've rented small halls for events before and then 407 00:18:17,533 --> 00:18:19,773 Speaker 2: generally speaking in Auckland, it's not cheap. It's not cheap, 408 00:18:20,813 --> 00:18:23,933 Speaker 2: even a two hundred person hall, it's not cheap. Hey, 409 00:18:23,973 --> 00:18:25,493 Speaker 2: thank you for your cool Murray appreciate it. 410 00:18:25,573 --> 00:18:25,773 Speaker 5: Yeah. 411 00:18:25,773 --> 00:18:27,413 Speaker 3: Oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number 412 00:18:27,413 --> 00:18:28,893 Speaker 3: to call A couple of texts coming through. 413 00:18:29,213 --> 00:18:32,293 Speaker 2: It's an iffing motorway, your muppets.

I think about 418 00:18:39,533 --> 00:18:41,773 Speaker 3: fishing rules a couple of weekends ago about fishing rules 419 00:18:41,853 --> 00:18:45,093 Speaker 3: and the Hodaki golf that fish has got pretty upset by. 420 00:18:45,533 --> 00:18:48,333 Speaker 3: I don't think they had pedestrians. But I'll say straight up, 421 00:18:48,733 --> 00:18:51,653 Speaker 3: I actually support some of what they were protesting about. 422 00:18:51,973 --> 00:18:56,893 Speaker 3: But I would still say if Tammackey and the climate 423 00:18:56,973 --> 00:18:59,413 Speaker 3: guys can't use the Harbor Bridge, then I'm sorry.

That official should just say no, sorry, you 479 00:21:36,333 --> 00:21:38,413 Speaker 3: can't protest there. It's at your protest elsewhere, I tell you. 480 00:21:38,613 --> 00:21:40,733 Speaker 2: So, I've been looking at the strict criteria that the 481 00:21:40,813 --> 00:21:45,653 Speaker 2: Transport agency demands before you can get a permit to 482 00:21:45,693 --> 00:21:48,253 Speaker 2: walk across the bridge for your protest. And it's essentially 483 00:21:48,253 --> 00:21:51,413 Speaker 2: a thesis. You could get a thesis from a Tiger 484 00:21:51,493 --> 00:21:54,373 Speaker 2: university with what you have to fill in and what 485 00:21:54,493 --> 00:21:57,253 Speaker 2: you have to organize to get approval to do this, 486 00:21:58,173 --> 00:22:01,173 Speaker 2: but equally a bunch of people at in ZTA have 487 00:22:01,293 --> 00:22:07,053 Speaker 2: to spend their time going through these applications and our money. Yeah, 488 00:22:07,773 --> 00:22:11,293 Speaker 2: so is a thesis. There's there's an equal amount of 489 00:22:11,373 --> 00:22:14,052 Speaker 2: work sort of going through each part of the thesis 490 00:22:14,093 --> 00:22:17,973 Speaker 2: and checking out whether each part is correctly done. And 491 00:22:18,093 --> 00:22:21,293 Speaker 2: then there's a lot of parts of it are I 492 00:22:21,453 --> 00:22:25,493 Speaker 2: guess subjective in it in their analysis. So it's not 493 00:22:25,653 --> 00:22:27,973 Speaker 2: just you tickle the boxes. You can do it. There 494 00:22:28,013 --> 00:22:30,013 Speaker 2: are parts where it goes. The event must be a 495 00:22:30,133 --> 00:22:35,613 Speaker 2: special occasion of significant international interest or an event of 496 00:22:35,973 --> 00:22:38,453 Speaker 2: international or substantial regional significance. 497 00:22:38,813 --> 00:22:39,333 Speaker 4: So how do you. 498 00:22:41,573 --> 00:22:45,613 Speaker 2: Because because if you're Brian Tomicky, you think that your 499 00:22:45,653 --> 00:22:50,173 Speaker 2: event is of special a special occasion of significant international interest, 500 00:22:50,733 --> 00:22:52,613 Speaker 2: and you're certainly hoping it is or an event of 501 00:22:52,693 --> 00:22:57,133 Speaker 2: international substantial regional significance. Brian Tommicky and the Bridge for 502 00:22:57,253 --> 00:23:00,293 Speaker 2: Better would say, yeah, this is incredibly significant. 503 00:23:00,413 --> 00:23:02,013 Speaker 3: Everybody the whole world should care about that. 504 00:23:02,053 --> 00:23:05,133 Speaker 2: But that's someone an nz tas to go. I reckon, 505 00:23:05,973 --> 00:23:08,453 Speaker 2: I reckon. It isn't substantial regional SETI. 506 00:23:08,693 --> 00:23:11,853 Speaker 3: It's just so much easier to say, nah, na oh, 507 00:23:11,893 --> 00:23:15,373 Speaker 3: one hundred and eighteen eighty is the number to call Joe, Welcome. 508 00:23:15,093 --> 00:23:15,613 Speaker 2: To the show. 509 00:23:16,493 --> 00:23:17,093 Speaker 14: Hey guys. 510 00:23:18,613 --> 00:23:22,013 Speaker 15: I think actually it's the attraction of walking over the 511 00:23:22,093 --> 00:23:25,933 Speaker 15: Harbor Bridge that attracts like I'd say thirty or fifty 512 00:23:25,973 --> 00:23:30,133 Speaker 15: percent people to these protests because there's not much of 513 00:23:30,213 --> 00:23:31,653 Speaker 15: an opportunity. 514 00:23:31,173 --> 00:23:33,773 Speaker 14: To say that you've walked over Auckland Harbor Bridge. It's 515 00:23:33,773 --> 00:23:38,493 Speaker 14: a great marketing idea for the people holding the protest, 516 00:23:39,213 --> 00:23:43,053 Speaker 14: and really the only other legal way is the marathon, 517 00:23:43,093 --> 00:23:45,053 Speaker 14: and then you have to pay a fee, So this 518 00:23:45,253 --> 00:23:48,773 Speaker 14: is like the user pay from the previous caller's call 519 00:23:48,933 --> 00:23:51,773 Speaker 14: is really good. But there is an attraction for people 520 00:23:51,933 --> 00:23:54,773 Speaker 14: who may not even believe in what the protest is. 521 00:23:55,213 --> 00:23:57,133 Speaker 14: It just has happened to Maine or something. 522 00:23:57,373 --> 00:24:01,853 Speaker 2: Yeah, interesting to put your lot in with Destiny's Church. Yeah, 523 00:24:02,253 --> 00:24:04,693 Speaker 2: there's a bit of danger there, but you're on the news. 524 00:24:05,133 --> 00:24:07,693 Speaker 2: Would you just wave a flag saying only here for 525 00:24:07,813 --> 00:24:09,653 Speaker 2: the view? Yeah, only here. 526 00:24:10,053 --> 00:24:10,493 Speaker 4: I can do it. 527 00:24:11,253 --> 00:24:14,613 Speaker 2: In the criteria though, the event must be limited to 528 00:24:14,773 --> 00:24:22,253 Speaker 2: registered participants and officials, no unlimited public asset access. So 529 00:24:22,333 --> 00:24:25,453 Speaker 2: if you do get approval to cross the bridge in protests, 530 00:24:25,533 --> 00:24:29,733 Speaker 2: you have to register everyone. So these these fair weather 531 00:24:29,973 --> 00:24:31,933 Speaker 2: I guess tourists that just want to walk across the 532 00:24:31,973 --> 00:24:34,773 Speaker 2: bridge for the experience, they would have to register with 533 00:24:34,973 --> 00:24:38,573 Speaker 2: the church, with the Destiny's Church and their protest. No, 534 00:24:38,693 --> 00:24:41,373 Speaker 2: you wouldn't have to be a member of Destiney's Church. Yeah, 535 00:24:41,453 --> 00:24:46,093 Speaker 2: but you'd have to register with their protest official protest page, 536 00:24:46,253 --> 00:24:49,453 Speaker 2: and they have to provide your name to the NZTA. 537 00:24:49,653 --> 00:24:51,213 Speaker 3: That makes sense. So you can just wake up and 538 00:24:51,253 --> 00:24:52,813 Speaker 3: say what should we do today, babe? While we'll go 539 00:24:52,853 --> 00:24:54,532 Speaker 3: to Rainbow's End and oh a lot, there's a protest 540 00:24:54,613 --> 00:24:56,413 Speaker 3: across the bridge. Oh that'll be nice for all we 541 00:24:56,493 --> 00:24:58,693 Speaker 3: walk God, Brie's wandering across the bridge. 542 00:24:58,693 --> 00:25:00,013 Speaker 2: We'll go and we'll go and join them. 543 00:25:00,093 --> 00:25:02,093 Speaker 3: Yeah, have a look. I'm glad they've thought of that. 544 00:25:02,293 --> 00:25:04,413 Speaker 2: That's Yeah, have you ever jumped off that bridge? 545 00:25:04,533 --> 00:25:04,573 Speaker 15: No? 546 00:25:04,813 --> 00:25:05,013 Speaker 10: Have you? 547 00:25:05,213 --> 00:25:05,613 Speaker 4: I have you? 548 00:25:06,013 --> 00:25:08,053 Speaker 3: That's a big dive. Yeah, did you have a bungee 549 00:25:08,133 --> 00:25:08,253 Speaker 3: on you? 550 00:25:08,333 --> 00:25:09,013 Speaker 2: A bune Oh? 551 00:25:09,053 --> 00:25:09,292 Speaker 11: I think? 552 00:25:09,973 --> 00:25:10,373 Speaker 3: Thank god? 553 00:25:11,293 --> 00:25:13,333 Speaker 2: It's a key part of that is key. 554 00:25:13,773 --> 00:25:16,253 Speaker 3: Eight hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number to call. 555 00:25:17,293 --> 00:25:19,133 Speaker 2: Ben. How are you today? 556 00:25:20,653 --> 00:25:20,853 Speaker 1: Yeah? 557 00:25:20,893 --> 00:25:21,333 Speaker 4: I'm good. 558 00:25:21,453 --> 00:25:23,853 Speaker 16: Look, look I've got no issue. Supposed you've seen. If 559 00:25:23,893 --> 00:25:26,853 Speaker 16: someone's standing there, then intersection holding a sign up saying two, 560 00:25:27,013 --> 00:25:29,613 Speaker 16: which the teachers have done lately. I'll go the two. 561 00:25:29,733 --> 00:25:32,493 Speaker 16: You know, I'm all for that. But the moment you, 562 00:25:33,053 --> 00:25:36,213 Speaker 16: you know, you inconvenienced me from going about my daily life. 563 00:25:36,773 --> 00:25:38,853 Speaker 16: You just pissed me off, and I just turn off 564 00:25:39,253 --> 00:25:40,293 Speaker 16: and I'll get really angry. 565 00:25:41,653 --> 00:25:41,893 Speaker 4: Yeah. 566 00:25:42,373 --> 00:25:44,973 Speaker 2: But I think these major protests, Ben, that's kind of 567 00:25:45,013 --> 00:25:47,853 Speaker 2: the idea, isn't it. They do them to piss people 568 00:25:48,053 --> 00:25:51,893 Speaker 2: off such that it makes news and they're becoming and 569 00:25:52,373 --> 00:25:55,613 Speaker 2: the focus goes on their protest. So, I mean, the 570 00:25:55,653 --> 00:25:58,133 Speaker 2: only reason why they want to walk across Aukland harborvide right, 571 00:25:58,573 --> 00:26:03,413 Speaker 2: apart from supposed I don't know metaphorical significance is to 572 00:26:03,613 --> 00:26:06,373 Speaker 2: annoy people like you, Ben. So then you have to. 573 00:26:06,453 --> 00:26:09,573 Speaker 2: You're forced to think about their their issue. 574 00:26:11,493 --> 00:26:13,813 Speaker 16: Yeah, but that see, at that point, I'm not even 575 00:26:13,893 --> 00:26:16,173 Speaker 16: interested in what they're up to. I'm just seeing that, 576 00:26:16,293 --> 00:26:20,093 Speaker 16: oh there's a muppet blocking the road, you know, like, oh, well, 577 00:26:20,133 --> 00:26:22,893 Speaker 16: we're just in christ Church.

It is a quarter to two. 661 00:30:05,733 --> 00:30:07,493 Speaker 3: Plenty of texts coming through nine two ninety. 662 00:30:07,293 --> 00:30:09,573 Speaker 2: Two protest need to tr like a balance between causing 663 00:30:09,733 --> 00:30:11,773 Speaker 2: enough disruption to make a point that the media pays 664 00:30:11,813 --> 00:30:13,693 Speaker 2: attention to their cause and not so much that it 665 00:30:13,773 --> 00:30:16,653 Speaker 2: distracts from it. Always a tough act, but the only 666 00:30:16,733 --> 00:30:19,413 Speaker 2: protests that have created change are those that get the balance. 667 00:30:19,533 --> 00:30:19,653 Speaker 11: Right. 668 00:30:19,773 --> 00:30:22,413 Speaker 2: Cheers guys, good chat team. That's from Luca. 669 00:30:22,613 --> 00:30:23,213 Speaker 3: Yeah, good man. 670 00:30:23,253 --> 00:30:25,413 Speaker 2: And this he said, would you have told Martin Luther 671 00:30:25,533 --> 00:30:28,133 Speaker 2: King to not march and disrupt society? The civil rights 672 00:30:28,173 --> 00:30:31,293 Speaker 2: movement was all about civil disobedience and inconvenience people, but 673 00:30:31,413 --> 00:30:35,333 Speaker 2: rightly so to draw attention to the horrific injustice. And 674 00:30:35,453 --> 00:30:38,733 Speaker 2: that's the thing, isn't it. Because some people are saying, well, 675 00:30:38,773 --> 00:30:41,533 Speaker 2: they don't support Brian Tumicky's views, so he shouldn't have 676 00:30:41,573 --> 00:30:45,213 Speaker 2: to protest. But if you have rules about protests, then 677 00:30:45,253 --> 00:30:48,813 Speaker 2: it can't be specific to the cause of the protest, 678 00:30:49,333 --> 00:30:52,093 Speaker 2: because who's to judge what is the protest and what 679 00:30:52,253 --> 00:30:54,133 Speaker 2: is it? And so I think we'd all agree that 680 00:30:54,253 --> 00:30:56,893 Speaker 2: Martin Luther King and the civil rights movement in the 681 00:30:57,013 --> 00:31:00,493 Speaker 2: United States was very important, but at the time they 682 00:31:00,533 --> 00:31:01,613 Speaker 2: didn't have public support. 683 00:31:02,373 --> 00:31:04,733 Speaker 3: Even knowing what I know now, Martin Luther King incredible 684 00:31:04,813 --> 00:31:06,933 Speaker 3: human being. One of the greatest of all time. But 685 00:31:07,453 --> 00:31:09,453 Speaker 3: if he wanted to walk cross the Auckland Harbor Bridge. 686 00:31:09,973 --> 00:31:12,333 Speaker 3: So I say, look, love what you're doing, go hard, 687 00:31:12,413 --> 00:31:14,053 Speaker 3: but just not the Auckland Harbor Bridge Marten. 688 00:31:14,173 --> 00:31:14,333 Speaker 9: Yeah. 689 00:31:14,373 --> 00:31:17,933 Speaker 2: And we have to be clear here that the participant 690 00:31:17,973 --> 00:31:20,893 Speaker 2: numbers the event must limit the numbers. So the lane 691 00:31:20,973 --> 00:31:24,253 Speaker 2: closures the event must only result in a partial lane closure. 692 00:31:24,293 --> 00:31:26,973 Speaker 2: Significant lanes must remain open to allow free flow of 693 00:31:27,013 --> 00:31:30,093 Speaker 2: traffic likely to use the motorway during the event. So 694 00:31:30,413 --> 00:31:32,773 Speaker 2: even though it causes a major disruption, because anytime you 695 00:31:32,853 --> 00:31:34,773 Speaker 2: block any of the lanes on the bridge, it gets 696 00:31:35,173 --> 00:31:37,053 Speaker 2: backed up all the way to the poon. Yeah but 697 00:31:38,093 --> 00:31:41,533 Speaker 2: you but this still traffic has to be able to 698 00:31:41,613 --> 00:31:44,973 Speaker 2: get through. So if this protest goes ahead, then it's 699 00:31:45,053 --> 00:31:49,573 Speaker 2: not a complete blocking of the bridge. Although surely thirty thousand. 700 00:31:50,333 --> 00:31:54,493 Speaker 2: If Brian Tammocky can get thirty thousand people that had 701 00:31:54,533 --> 00:31:56,653 Speaker 2: blocked the bridge, wulldn't it? Thirty thousand people's a lot 702 00:31:56,693 --> 00:31:56,973 Speaker 2: of people. 703 00:31:56,973 --> 00:31:58,333 Speaker 3: There's a good number. He's ambitious. 704 00:31:58,453 --> 00:32:00,693 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's all of I wa a rout turning 705 00:32:00,773 --> 00:32:01,453 Speaker 2: up across the bridge. 706 00:32:01,693 --> 00:32:03,613 Speaker 3: Stick, Simon, how are. 707 00:32:03,573 --> 00:32:10,493 Speaker 6: You get a Simon Simon? Yeah, Look, I think, you know, 708 00:32:10,573 --> 00:32:13,453 Speaker 6: brain demism. He's an idiot, that's first thing. But I 709 00:32:13,493 --> 00:32:16,773 Speaker 6: think they're also instr duc in the way they treat 710 00:32:16,893 --> 00:32:18,573 Speaker 6: us about the bridge. The bridge would be opened up 711 00:32:18,573 --> 00:32:21,053 Speaker 6: through us and so you know they close it to 712 00:32:21,133 --> 00:32:23,533 Speaker 6: sastening at three o'clock they closed the bridge called Northern 713 00:32:23,773 --> 00:32:25,373 Speaker 6: North traffic coming to the city. 714 00:32:25,733 --> 00:32:26,533 Speaker 4: They do it every day. 715 00:32:26,613 --> 00:32:28,173 Speaker 6: They close it down to three lanes and cause the 716 00:32:28,173 --> 00:32:30,413 Speaker 6: traffic jam or in the Northern Highway. So it's not 717 00:32:30,533 --> 00:32:32,653 Speaker 6: like they can't close the bridge and if they did, 718 00:32:32,813 --> 00:32:35,413 Speaker 6: you know, three lanes each way on a Sunday mornings, 719 00:32:35,533 --> 00:32:37,653 Speaker 6: let's say from you know seven o'clock to nine o'clock 720 00:32:37,733 --> 00:32:39,693 Speaker 6: or six o'clock to eight o'clock or something on Sunday 721 00:32:39,733 --> 00:32:42,213 Speaker 6: morning and open up two lanes the western Tia Landes 722 00:32:42,293 --> 00:32:44,453 Speaker 6: and the bridge from Chilly Beach to the step of 723 00:32:44,493 --> 00:32:46,933 Speaker 6: the row off rom there. Let anybody walk acros us it, 724 00:32:47,053 --> 00:32:49,493 Speaker 6: ride your bike. If you're to protest, that's the time 725 00:32:49,533 --> 00:32:51,693 Speaker 6: they have to do it. So they're protesting is about 726 00:32:52,013 --> 00:32:54,413 Speaker 6: the disruption, but visibility as well. So you get as 727 00:32:54,493 --> 00:32:56,613 Speaker 6: much visibility as your life on the Harbor Bridge and 728 00:32:56,653 --> 00:32:59,453 Speaker 6: a Sunday morning and take your thirty thousand people across it. 729 00:32:59,533 --> 00:33:03,133 Speaker 6: But MCTA treat it like it's a sacred cathedral or something. 730 00:33:03,213 --> 00:33:03,853 Speaker 6: It's just a bridge. 731 00:33:03,933 --> 00:33:04,533 Speaker 1: We all own it. 732 00:33:04,853 --> 00:33:05,533 Speaker 6: We can't use it. 733 00:33:05,893 --> 00:33:08,693 Speaker 2: You know, you did you support the plan lands that 734 00:33:08,773 --> 00:33:10,773 Speaker 2: were scuttled because I think they had already spent eighty 735 00:33:10,773 --> 00:33:12,973 Speaker 2: million investigating. But there was that plan to. 736 00:33:14,853 --> 00:33:16,733 Speaker 3: Engineer it was a clip on, wasn't it wasn't that 737 00:33:16,733 --> 00:33:18,053 Speaker 3: a clip on cyclist? 738 00:33:18,133 --> 00:33:21,693 Speaker 6: So that was that seemed way too principle. But the 739 00:33:22,413 --> 00:33:23,813 Speaker 6: engineering was just outrageous. 740 00:33:23,853 --> 00:33:26,373 Speaker 2: Why did it have to be the coolest it had? 741 00:33:26,733 --> 00:33:30,293 Speaker 2: What they designed had to be so futuristic and cool looking. 742 00:33:30,413 --> 00:33:31,773 Speaker 2: It could have been in the Osborne Book of the 743 00:33:31,853 --> 00:33:34,733 Speaker 2: Future instead of Really, you just need a painted line, 744 00:33:34,773 --> 00:33:35,053 Speaker 2: don't you. 745 00:33:35,693 --> 00:33:37,653 Speaker 6: For people who know you can chuse the bridge as 746 00:33:37,693 --> 00:33:39,373 Speaker 6: it is now, you don't do anything. You just close 747 00:33:39,413 --> 00:33:41,453 Speaker 6: the west and few lanes or they do it all 748 00:33:41,533 --> 00:33:43,693 Speaker 6: the time. They paint the bridges late on Thursday night 749 00:33:43,773 --> 00:33:45,613 Speaker 6: or whatever. The stuff happens all the time. 750 00:33:46,013 --> 00:33:47,093 Speaker 4: Yeah on the shore. 751 00:33:47,173 --> 00:33:49,293 Speaker 6: So I've travel of course that bridge thousands of times 752 00:33:49,653 --> 00:33:51,853 Speaker 6: and it's often closed and they do it all the time. 753 00:33:52,053 --> 00:33:53,893 Speaker 6: And yet if you want to close the bridge for 754 00:33:54,373 --> 00:33:57,733 Speaker 6: Brian Tammicky again, you know, I think it's submission, you know, 755 00:33:57,813 --> 00:34:00,613 Speaker 6: whereas it should just be available. 756 00:34:00,093 --> 00:34:01,013 Speaker 4: For the public to use. 757 00:34:01,693 --> 00:34:04,373 Speaker 6: That are very much the off most off pick hour 758 00:34:04,453 --> 00:34:06,853 Speaker 6: I can think of. But I have known convenienced at 759 00:34:06,853 --> 00:34:08,812 Speaker 6: all and a little bit of you know, don't move 760 00:34:08,853 --> 00:34:09,772 Speaker 6: the lane market back. 761 00:34:09,692 --> 00:34:10,812 Speaker 8: On Saturday night. 762 00:34:11,053 --> 00:34:13,333 Speaker 6: Just leave it where it is and then we've got 763 00:34:13,333 --> 00:34:15,053 Speaker 6: two lanes to use in the morning and then do 764 00:34:15,133 --> 00:34:17,893 Speaker 6: it on a Sunday morning. You know, and for some reason, 765 00:34:18,813 --> 00:34:21,213 Speaker 6: the delay to use the bridge for the people of Auckland, 766 00:34:21,813 --> 00:34:22,813 Speaker 6: it's just impossible. 767 00:34:22,853 --> 00:34:24,493 Speaker 2: You know, where would you get where would you get on? 768 00:34:24,573 --> 00:34:27,133 Speaker 2: So if you were cycling and walking on. 769 00:34:27,493 --> 00:34:30,973 Speaker 6: The beach road, Beach Road on the postanly side right, yeah, 770 00:34:31,133 --> 00:34:33,493 Speaker 6: and you could connect to the to the west west 771 00:34:33,533 --> 00:34:36,813 Speaker 6: Harboro west Haven walkways, it connects to the nicely. And 772 00:34:36,853 --> 00:34:38,933 Speaker 6: now they're in your go for Stafford I think it's 773 00:34:38,973 --> 00:34:42,933 Speaker 6: called or Solfer Point, soft Point Beach and equally the 774 00:34:43,133 --> 00:34:45,613 Speaker 6: golf into the domestic area. You know, they were trying 775 00:34:45,653 --> 00:34:48,613 Speaker 6: to build an off rand that was five stories up 776 00:34:48,693 --> 00:34:49,013 Speaker 6: or something. 777 00:34:49,053 --> 00:34:49,933 Speaker 8: You know, it's crazy. 778 00:34:49,973 --> 00:34:51,853 Speaker 6: You just need to come down to the bottom and 779 00:34:51,933 --> 00:34:53,853 Speaker 6: you go off there and and look you've already got 780 00:34:53,893 --> 00:34:56,453 Speaker 6: a separation. There might need to be some you know, 781 00:34:56,573 --> 00:34:59,133 Speaker 6: company separation for you know, a couple of hundred meters, 782 00:34:59,173 --> 00:35:00,693 Speaker 6: but they can do that. It's not impossible. 783 00:35:00,773 --> 00:35:03,213 Speaker 2: See. This is the problem. This is the problem Simon 784 00:35:03,293 --> 00:35:07,053 Speaker 2: with all these cycle initiatives is they always just want 785 00:35:07,093 --> 00:35:09,973 Speaker 2: them to be the flashest, most spectacular thing that will 786 00:35:10,053 --> 00:35:13,373 Speaker 2: get an infrastructure weekly around the world, rather than just 787 00:35:13,453 --> 00:35:17,613 Speaker 2: something that can functionally be used by people. Because I 788 00:35:17,653 --> 00:35:19,212 Speaker 2: think it would be really fun if people, if people 789 00:35:19,213 --> 00:35:22,093 Speaker 2: could if people could cycle to the beach, it would 790 00:35:22,133 --> 00:35:23,173 Speaker 2: be phenomenal, wouldn't it. 791 00:35:24,213 --> 00:35:26,213 Speaker 6: Just walk and it's quite I've done the jump of 792 00:35:26,293 --> 00:35:27,693 Speaker 6: the bridge and walked up there to the top of it, 793 00:35:27,733 --> 00:35:30,573 Speaker 6: and it's spectacular up there to get there, you know. 794 00:35:30,693 --> 00:35:33,212 Speaker 6: And so and so I think instead of thinking about 795 00:35:33,253 --> 00:35:34,933 Speaker 6: closing the bridge for this, they should just opened the 796 00:35:34,933 --> 00:35:36,973 Speaker 6: bridge and not close it, because you know, they do 797 00:35:37,093 --> 00:35:38,693 Speaker 6: this all the time. And as I say, live on 798 00:35:38,733 --> 00:35:40,373 Speaker 6: an all the shore and you drive this afternoon, and 799 00:35:40,413 --> 00:35:42,853 Speaker 6: you drive back across the bridge again on a Thursday 800 00:35:42,933 --> 00:35:44,933 Speaker 6: or even worse than a Friday afternoon, there's a jam 801 00:35:45,053 --> 00:35:47,173 Speaker 6: all out the motorway. And they're doing this for twenty 802 00:35:47,253 --> 00:35:49,253 Speaker 6: years and there's no need for it. You know, they 803 00:35:49,293 --> 00:35:52,093 Speaker 6: could just leave that medium. There's obviously they pay somebody 804 00:35:52,173 --> 00:35:54,493 Speaker 6: to move the bear across, you know, like work, but 805 00:35:54,533 --> 00:35:56,093 Speaker 6: they could live with there now after that is because 806 00:35:56,133 --> 00:35:59,453 Speaker 6: the traffic's equivalent in most directions, and you know, in 807 00:35:59,493 --> 00:36:01,613 Speaker 6: the afternoons these days, makes a lot of sense. 808 00:36:02,373 --> 00:36:06,652 Speaker 2: There was in May of twenty nine, two thousand and nine, 809 00:36:07,253 --> 00:36:10,652 Speaker 2: there was the Get Cross protests where walkers and cyclists 810 00:36:11,053 --> 00:36:13,573 Speaker 2: illegally crossed the Auckland Harbor Bridge to protest the lack 811 00:36:13,613 --> 00:36:18,573 Speaker 2: of walking and cycling pathways, and NCTA had denied official 812 00:36:18,613 --> 00:36:22,013 Speaker 2: access to it. So the most renegade protest that's ever 813 00:36:22,093 --> 00:36:25,773 Speaker 2: been on the Auckland Harbor Bridge was walkers and cyclists 814 00:36:25,933 --> 00:36:28,973 Speaker 2: outlaws protesting for walking and cycling. Back in a mow, 815 00:36:29,173 --> 00:36:31,253 Speaker 2: it is eight to two to two, and I've just 816 00:36:31,333 --> 00:36:33,773 Speaker 2: seen a text that has caught my interest. I'll read 817 00:36:33,813 --> 00:36:34,573 Speaker 2: that out next. 818 00:36:36,573 --> 00:36:40,133 Speaker 1: Matt Heath, Taylor Adams taking your calls on eight hundred 819 00:36:40,133 --> 00:36:42,653 Speaker 1: and eighty ten eighty.

But wasn't 824 00:36:50,613 --> 00:36:52,853 Speaker 3: Matt Heath responsible for closing down the Harbor Bridge? 825 00:36:53,453 --> 00:36:54,172 Speaker 2: Oh, it's a good point. 826 00:36:54,213 --> 00:36:54,373 Speaker 10: I did. 827 00:36:54,613 --> 00:36:56,652 Speaker 2: That's a good point. Well spotted text. I did close 828 00:36:56,693 --> 00:36:58,373 Speaker 2: down the Harbor Bridge in two thousand and seven. 829 00:36:58,973 --> 00:36:59,613 Speaker 3: What were you doing? 830 00:37:00,173 --> 00:37:01,933 Speaker 2: I was shooting a movie called The Devil dem two 831 00:37:01,933 --> 00:37:04,653 Speaker 2: and we got rights. We were blowing up a huge 832 00:37:05,133 --> 00:37:06,893 Speaker 2: a car. We're blowing up a car as a massive 833 00:37:06,933 --> 00:37:12,173 Speaker 2: expo explosion down west Haven Way and so the permission 834 00:37:12,213 --> 00:37:15,373 Speaker 2: that we got they had to. They didn't shut the bridge, 835 00:37:15,413 --> 00:37:18,493 Speaker 2: but they police cars came across slowly to slow people 836 00:37:18,533 --> 00:37:20,813 Speaker 2: down while the explosion went off. We had someone on 837 00:37:20,933 --> 00:37:24,053 Speaker 2: rad Island filming it and such an explosion went off 838 00:37:24,093 --> 00:37:26,693 Speaker 2: in west Haven, but the timing went was absolutely the 839 00:37:26,773 --> 00:37:30,133 Speaker 2: timing was wrong. So we set off this huge explosion 840 00:37:30,213 --> 00:37:33,093 Speaker 2: right at time. But you know, the transport people were 841 00:37:33,093 --> 00:37:34,893 Speaker 2: worried that someone would see the explosion and crashed on 842 00:37:34,933 --> 00:37:37,333 Speaker 2: the bridge right because explosion was so brick So we 843 00:37:37,413 --> 00:37:39,813 Speaker 2: had all the explosives set off, set to go off 844 00:37:39,813 --> 00:37:42,333 Speaker 2: at the right time, and they went off, but then 845 00:37:42,813 --> 00:37:45,773 Speaker 2: the police got it wrong, and then so we had 846 00:37:45,813 --> 00:37:47,773 Speaker 2: this huge explosion. It went off. It was massive, It 847 00:37:47,773 --> 00:37:50,173 Speaker 2: was much bigger than we speak to. Actually it was disastrous. 848 00:37:50,613 --> 00:37:54,533 Speaker 2: But then about two minutes later the traffic started slowing 849 00:37:55,213 --> 00:38:02,413 Speaker 2: but no one crashed. Well, what a great discussion. And look, 850 00:38:02,453 --> 00:38:05,373 Speaker 2: in my humble opinion, New Zealanders absolutely have the right 851 00:38:05,453 --> 00:38:07,172 Speaker 2: to protest and it's one of the things that keeps 852 00:38:07,213 --> 00:38:11,453 Speaker 2: our beautiful democracy.

If this is going this way, we'll 999 00:44:35,413 --> 00:44:37,853 Speaker 2: be able to do even less practical things. 1000 00:44:37,933 --> 00:44:38,053 Speaker 5: Right. 1001 00:44:38,213 --> 00:44:41,333 Speaker 3: Yeah, the skill tree starts to diminish.

But what are 1011 00:45:01,053 --> 00:45:05,013 Speaker 2: the key things that you think that everyone should know 1012 00:45:06,253 --> 00:45:09,893 Speaker 2: and not look it up on YouTube and not if 1013 00:45:09,893 --> 00:45:12,173 Speaker 2: the internet's gone, that everyone should know? 1014 00:45:12,453 --> 00:45:12,573 Speaker 5: Is it? 1015 00:45:12,853 --> 00:45:15,533 Speaker 2: Is it hunting?

The their bear 1020 00:45:25,453 --> 00:45:30,573 Speaker 2: basics to survive an emergency or God forbid, full civilization collapse. 1021 00:45:30,653 --> 00:45:32,013 Speaker 3: This is going to be good. Oh, eight one hundred 1022 00:45:32,133 --> 00:45:34,453 Speaker 3: eighty ten eighty is that number to call? Nine to 1023 00:45:34,773 --> 00:45:37,373 Speaker 3: ninety two is the text number.

So if 1029 00:45:52,733 --> 00:45:55,973 Speaker 3: the Internet went down, all that knowledge and society started 1030 00:45:56,013 --> 00:45:58,493 Speaker 3: to collapse, what skills do you think would be essential 1031 00:45:58,973 --> 00:46:01,013 Speaker 3: for you to not only survive, but to rebuild. 1032 00:46:03,333 --> 00:46:05,093 Speaker 2: I'm not going to survive. I can't even manage turning 1033 00:46:05,133 --> 00:46:05,933 Speaker 2: away on microphone on. 1034 00:46:06,013 --> 00:46:06,973 Speaker 3: You don't need the Internet for that. 1035 00:46:09,453 --> 00:46:12,773 Speaker 2: What a bunch of alarmist bs is this? Texas civilization 1036 00:46:12,933 --> 00:46:17,853 Speaker 2: isn't going to end. You are just scaremongering your listeners. Well, 1037 00:46:18,133 --> 00:46:21,333 Speaker 2: you don't know. Civilizations have risen and fallen in the past. Yep, 1038 00:46:21,613 --> 00:46:24,373 Speaker 2: And some people argue that they may have risen and 1039 00:46:24,493 --> 00:46:27,253 Speaker 2: fallen many many times. In fact, I saw this documentary 1040 00:46:27,453 --> 00:46:32,013 Speaker 2: on how soon absolutely everything from a civilization can disappear. 1041 00:46:32,213 --> 00:46:35,692 Speaker 2: There's only a few things that would survive more than 1042 00:46:35,733 --> 00:46:40,293 Speaker 2: about fifty to sixty thousand years, right, and they are 1043 00:46:41,013 --> 00:46:44,093 Speaker 2: things that we're doing around altering atoms. But you know, 1044 00:46:44,453 --> 00:46:46,453 Speaker 2: whole civilizations can just just disappear. 1045 00:46:46,533 --> 00:46:48,813 Speaker 3: So it's happened before, and I've got to say, I 1046 00:46:48,853 --> 00:46:51,652 Speaker 3: would say we are probably the weakest we've ever been. 1047 00:46:51,733 --> 00:46:54,573 Speaker 3: We're so reliant on all these things. Hence why we're 1048 00:46:54,613 --> 00:46:57,493 Speaker 3: having this discussion that of society did go down if 1049 00:46:57,493 --> 00:46:59,772 Speaker 3: it happened one hundred years ago, I'd beck those guys, 1050 00:46:59,853 --> 00:47:02,173 Speaker 3: those guys were practical there to know how. But we 1051 00:47:02,333 --> 00:47:04,373 Speaker 3: are weak, weak people these days. We don't know anything. 1052 00:47:04,693 --> 00:47:07,653 Speaker 2: How would the people go that get injured by words 1053 00:47:08,613 --> 00:47:14,533 Speaker 2: and civilization collapse a bunch of marauding I don't know, 1054 00:47:14,733 --> 00:47:17,333 Speaker 2: post apocalyp But warriors on horseback turn up at your 1055 00:47:17,333 --> 00:47:22,172 Speaker 2: house and you're offended because they call you the wrong word. Yeah, 1056 00:47:22,213 --> 00:47:25,172 Speaker 2: there's no safe space for that, No, a guys, Food 1057 00:47:25,213 --> 00:47:27,933 Speaker 2: shout and security. Security is all you need. Know how 1058 00:47:28,053 --> 00:47:30,413 Speaker 2: to grow catch food, click water, and to cook it 1059 00:47:30,613 --> 00:47:33,053 Speaker 2: or preserve all of it. Know how to build a 1060 00:47:33,133 --> 00:47:35,493 Speaker 2: shelter and know how to defend that. That is all 1061 00:47:35,653 --> 00:47:36,013 Speaker 2: you need. 1062 00:47:36,573 --> 00:47:39,773 Speaker 3: Good text, see that is the scary thing about civilization 1063 00:47:40,093 --> 00:47:44,573 Speaker 3: collapse is that it's not just it's not just sustenance 1064 00:47:44,613 --> 00:47:48,413 Speaker 3: you need, but you also what's it called a hobbsy 1065 00:47:48,453 --> 00:47:50,253 Speaker 3: and nightmare? I don't know what is that? 1066 00:47:50,653 --> 00:47:56,053 Speaker 2: Well, it's I'll get the quote what life without civilization? 1067 00:47:56,253 --> 00:47:59,693 Speaker 2: It's brutal and short. There is an exact there's an 1068 00:47:59,733 --> 00:48:02,253 Speaker 2: exact quote I'll get. So you know, whenever you watch 1069 00:48:02,293 --> 00:48:06,253 Speaker 2: those prepare shows, a big part of it is security. 1070 00:48:07,493 --> 00:48:09,093 Speaker 3: Mark are you the stuff today? 1071 00:48:11,573 --> 00:48:12,172 Speaker 4: Yeah? Good? Good? 1072 00:48:12,213 --> 00:48:12,733 Speaker 3: What are you reckon? 1073 00:48:14,013 --> 00:48:18,613 Speaker 19: Well, if society is gonna hit ship HiT's a fan. 1074 00:48:19,493 --> 00:48:23,373 Speaker 19: I think, realistically, what's the most human need that we need? 1075 00:48:23,533 --> 00:48:25,653 Speaker 19: It's it's food, water. 1076 00:48:25,573 --> 00:48:26,733 Speaker 8: And shelter, m h. 1077 00:48:28,013 --> 00:48:31,293 Speaker 19: As long as you know how to procure those things. 1078 00:48:31,933 --> 00:48:36,213 Speaker 19: Stuff happens in cases of emergency. But I think you 1079 00:48:36,293 --> 00:48:39,013 Speaker 19: know you I'm a bocher for trade, and I live 1080 00:48:39,973 --> 00:48:42,093 Speaker 19: on a farm and all that sort of stuff and 1081 00:48:42,413 --> 00:48:45,453 Speaker 19: grow up in the outdoors, so you know, as long 1082 00:48:45,493 --> 00:48:47,853 Speaker 19: as you know how to get stup there and see 1083 00:48:48,893 --> 00:48:52,893 Speaker 19: hunt stuff for pair stuff and all that sort of stuff, realistically, 1084 00:48:53,013 --> 00:48:55,692 Speaker 19: it's going to be if ship did hit the fan, 1085 00:48:56,133 --> 00:48:58,773 Speaker 19: it's going to realistically be survival strong. 1086 00:49:00,213 --> 00:49:01,813 Speaker 8: But you know what I mean, and you did. 1087 00:49:01,893 --> 00:49:06,253 Speaker 19: What about the generations of the past, They, as I 1088 00:49:06,293 --> 00:49:09,533 Speaker 19: sort of said, they didn't grow up with technology. You know, 1089 00:49:09,733 --> 00:49:13,293 Speaker 19: they knew what hard times were. They were hard grafters. Today, 1090 00:49:13,853 --> 00:49:16,453 Speaker 19: I can sort of see certain generations get weeded out 1091 00:49:16,493 --> 00:49:20,013 Speaker 19: pretty quickly because it will be control for. 1092 00:49:20,453 --> 00:49:22,172 Speaker 8: Water, food and resources. 1093 00:49:22,293 --> 00:49:24,853 Speaker 19: And if you watch all those programs and movies or 1094 00:49:24,853 --> 00:49:28,893 Speaker 19: whatever it is about a popular actview or you know 1095 00:49:29,053 --> 00:49:32,893 Speaker 19: how that breaks and society to ship. Basically it will 1096 00:49:32,933 --> 00:49:36,373 Speaker 19: be you know, survive or the strong because a little 1097 00:49:36,453 --> 00:49:39,573 Speaker 19: quickly weed out the weak ones that are that aren't 1098 00:49:39,613 --> 00:49:42,133 Speaker 19: prepared and still rely on mom and dad to their bums. 1099 00:49:44,013 --> 00:49:46,573 Speaker 2: Do you think what about so you talk about those 1100 00:49:46,773 --> 00:49:49,573 Speaker 2: kind of things, there's you know, security, you know, source 1101 00:49:49,613 --> 00:49:53,733 Speaker 2: of food. What about upkeeping the technology that still exists 1102 00:49:54,333 --> 00:49:57,133 Speaker 2: so well, like a combustion engine? Do you think people 1103 00:49:57,133 --> 00:50:00,453 Speaker 2: should should should all know how to repair a combustion engine, 1104 00:50:00,773 --> 00:50:03,053 Speaker 2: a you know, a generator, that kind of thing. 1105 00:50:04,853 --> 00:50:05,973 Speaker 8: I think you should know that. 1106 00:50:06,053 --> 00:50:09,093 Speaker 19: You should know the basics, you know, because it'll be 1107 00:50:09,093 --> 00:50:11,293 Speaker 19: a fight for fuel if we don't have the electricity, 1108 00:50:11,413 --> 00:50:13,253 Speaker 19: fuel parts don't work, so you've got to be a 1109 00:50:13,373 --> 00:50:16,213 Speaker 19: nap of not knowing how to come up with ideas, 1110 00:50:16,253 --> 00:50:19,733 Speaker 19: how to extract fuel, how to extract water, how to 1111 00:50:19,853 --> 00:50:21,973 Speaker 19: make a fishing line. You know, like there'll be a 1112 00:50:22,013 --> 00:50:24,813 Speaker 19: lot of people saying, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, going to happen. 1113 00:50:24,613 --> 00:50:25,173 Speaker 8: And stuff like that. 1114 00:50:25,333 --> 00:50:30,253 Speaker 19: But you know the world's pining a matter of you know, 1115 00:50:30,773 --> 00:50:32,853 Speaker 19: we're the next wards are going to be for. It's 1116 00:50:32,893 --> 00:50:38,573 Speaker 19: not going to be fought over. So unless you're pretty 1117 00:50:38,613 --> 00:50:42,573 Speaker 19: handy trying to survival, and you're pretty handy, I'm not 1118 00:50:42,853 --> 00:50:45,773 Speaker 19: saying people should go out and learn how to kill 1119 00:50:45,813 --> 00:50:48,733 Speaker 19: animals and learn how to use firearms, but you know, 1120 00:50:48,853 --> 00:50:52,693 Speaker 19: if you're not practical and you rely on society to 1121 00:50:52,773 --> 00:50:55,093 Speaker 19: do everything for you when you're not going to survive, 1122 00:50:55,853 --> 00:50:56,013 Speaker 19: do you. 1123 00:50:56,053 --> 00:50:57,413 Speaker 2: Think there would be a period? There to be a 1124 00:50:57,493 --> 00:51:00,133 Speaker 2: period mark right at the start, so people go, well, 1125 00:51:00,253 --> 00:51:02,933 Speaker 2: you know, I could learn this stuff over time, but 1126 00:51:03,933 --> 00:51:05,853 Speaker 2: you feel like when it collapsed, there would be a 1127 00:51:05,973 --> 00:51:08,333 Speaker 2: very short window where you'd have to sort out your pat. 1128 00:51:09,853 --> 00:51:10,333 Speaker 4: Oh a lot. 1129 00:51:11,653 --> 00:51:13,533 Speaker 19: If it collapses, what's the first I'm going to do. 1130 00:51:13,693 --> 00:51:18,933 Speaker 19: Everyone's going to ramsackle the supermarkets and take everything and 1131 00:51:19,293 --> 00:51:21,853 Speaker 19: and basically, you know, it'll be right for a couple 1132 00:51:21,893 --> 00:51:24,732 Speaker 19: of months because people have supplies, but once things start 1133 00:51:24,813 --> 00:51:27,053 Speaker 19: running out, what's going to happen next? And we're going 1134 00:51:27,133 --> 00:51:30,093 Speaker 19: to start remraating farms and then you know you're going 1135 00:51:30,133 --> 00:51:33,213 Speaker 19: to have it's always people. You know, you're going to 1136 00:51:33,293 --> 00:51:35,813 Speaker 19: have the gang start controlling things because you know, the 1137 00:51:35,853 --> 00:51:41,413 Speaker 19: police society just collapses. There's no there's no role as yeah. 1138 00:51:44,613 --> 00:51:47,133 Speaker 3: Oh I think we've lost it there. Yeah, you were 1139 00:51:47,173 --> 00:51:49,533 Speaker 3: just lost it there for a bit. Mark Hopefully it's stabilizers, 1140 00:51:49,613 --> 00:51:51,933 Speaker 3: but I always think of and it's slightly different. It's 1141 00:51:51,973 --> 00:51:55,573 Speaker 3: not dystopian, but it's certainly a man trying to survive 1142 00:51:55,853 --> 00:51:57,413 Speaker 3: just by himself. And I know it's a movie, but 1143 00:51:57,533 --> 00:51:59,773 Speaker 3: cast Away with Tom Hanks and obviously he's got to 1144 00:51:59,853 --> 00:52:02,573 Speaker 3: learn how to spare fish and he becomes pretty proficient 1145 00:52:02,613 --> 00:52:04,533 Speaker 3: at that as the movie goes on. But the one 1146 00:52:04,573 --> 00:52:06,053 Speaker 3: thing that always gets me is when he gets the 1147 00:52:06,133 --> 00:52:08,613 Speaker 3: rotten tooth. And I always think that's what people for get, 1148 00:52:08,733 --> 00:52:11,573 Speaker 3: is how to not just first date, but how to 1149 00:52:11,733 --> 00:52:14,413 Speaker 3: solve any injury or fix any injury that you get, 1150 00:52:14,533 --> 00:52:17,213 Speaker 3: or medicines you may need. Because when his tooth got rotten, 1151 00:52:17,253 --> 00:52:18,733 Speaker 3: if he didn't pull that thing out, that would have 1152 00:52:18,773 --> 00:52:21,413 Speaker 3: been the end of it, of course. 1153 00:52:21,533 --> 00:52:23,413 Speaker 8: I mean today you're going to be prepared.

I get to figure outside the square, just 1321 01:01:03,613 --> 01:01:07,173 Speaker 21: to look at leadership, because in chaos, everone turns to 1322 01:01:07,653 --> 01:01:13,013 Speaker 21: find someone who can actually lead and perhaps settle everyone 1323 01:01:13,093 --> 01:01:16,213 Speaker 21: down and put them in the right direction and become collaborative. 1324 01:01:16,253 --> 01:01:20,133 Speaker 21: As you talked about earlier, that would be quite quite important. Well, 1325 01:01:20,173 --> 01:01:21,853 Speaker 21: why I thinks I'm a good supervisor, but I don't 1326 01:01:21,853 --> 01:01:25,213 Speaker 21: think I don't know about leader, because I'm not a 1327 01:01:25,253 --> 01:01:26,573 Speaker 21: good handy man whatsoever. 1328 01:01:26,733 --> 01:01:28,813 Speaker 5: So I think if you have a good leadership, you 1329 01:01:28,853 --> 01:01:32,093 Speaker 5: would find and delegate the different areas that could be 1330 01:01:32,213 --> 01:01:34,413 Speaker 5: done by people who know the ins and outs. 1331 01:01:35,533 --> 01:01:38,693 Speaker 2: So how do you do that? So there's civilization collapsed? 1332 01:01:38,813 --> 01:01:39,973 Speaker 4: Do you what do you do? 1333 01:01:40,133 --> 01:01:42,453 Speaker 2: You go around, you lead a few people, then you 1334 01:01:42,573 --> 01:01:44,573 Speaker 2: convince them, and then more and more and more, and 1335 01:01:44,613 --> 01:01:47,093 Speaker 2: then then you're a leader leader and then I guess 1336 01:01:47,333 --> 01:01:50,533 Speaker 2: they look after after you. But it'd be interesting to 1337 01:01:50,573 --> 01:01:52,013 Speaker 2: know the skills that you need to get on a 1338 01:01:52,093 --> 01:01:55,213 Speaker 2: soapbox and bring people together. Do you have to be charismatic? 1339 01:01:55,373 --> 01:01:56,093 Speaker 8: Is that what it is? 1340 01:01:56,173 --> 01:01:58,493 Speaker 2: Or do you have to have skills and provide something 1341 01:01:58,573 --> 01:01:59,173 Speaker 2: that people need. 1342 01:02:00,173 --> 01:02:01,573 Speaker 21: I think you have to have a certain amount of 1343 01:02:01,613 --> 01:02:03,853 Speaker 21: skills to about it show the leadership. It's like eating 1344 01:02:03,933 --> 01:02:07,373 Speaker 21: and especially like when you come to basics like rugby, 1345 01:02:07,453 --> 01:02:10,533 Speaker 21: when you've got players that all know they're individual skills, 1346 01:02:10,613 --> 01:02:13,893 Speaker 21: but the captain has skills that they can bring on 1347 01:02:14,133 --> 01:02:16,653 Speaker 21: and they can actually show that they can lead and 1348 01:02:17,013 --> 01:02:18,973 Speaker 21: they can do the job per se. 1349 01:02:19,133 --> 01:02:25,053 Speaker 5: But I guess it's a talent and it's a factor 1350 01:02:25,093 --> 01:02:27,573 Speaker 5: that people kind of turn to to ensure that you 1351 01:02:27,693 --> 01:02:30,173 Speaker 5: are on the right track, and they then you know 1352 01:02:30,293 --> 01:02:31,973 Speaker 5: if you're if you're a good leader, you're open to 1353 01:02:32,693 --> 01:02:36,133 Speaker 5: two ideas and making things work. I think chaos is 1354 01:02:37,133 --> 01:02:40,413 Speaker 5: when you look at the depression and how World War 1355 01:02:40,613 --> 01:02:44,213 Speaker 5: two started when Hitler was he came through and gave 1356 01:02:44,293 --> 01:02:46,573 Speaker 5: them inspiration and they all followed him like sheep because 1357 01:02:46,613 --> 01:02:50,173 Speaker 5: everyone was in a bad situation, a dire situation. So 1358 01:02:50,333 --> 01:02:52,333 Speaker 5: you do find that people do rise to the occasion, 1359 01:02:52,373 --> 01:02:54,733 Speaker 5: whether it's good or bad. But you do find people 1360 01:02:54,773 --> 01:02:55,293 Speaker 5: that do do that. 1361 01:02:56,053 --> 01:02:56,253 Speaker 10: Yeah. 1362 01:02:56,293 --> 01:02:58,413 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I don't know how much Hollywood has 1363 01:02:58,453 --> 01:03:01,653 Speaker 2: to say on this, but generally speaking, in every apocalyptic movie, 1364 01:03:01,693 --> 01:03:05,373 Speaker 2: there's some bad person that rises and creates an army 1365 01:03:05,453 --> 01:03:08,333 Speaker 2: of evil people that were roared around doing terrible things. 1366 01:03:08,533 --> 01:03:10,573 Speaker 3: Good leaders, but yeah, just warlords. 1367 01:03:11,613 --> 01:03:13,213 Speaker 21: Yeah, well you're going to work out which one is 1368 01:03:13,213 --> 01:03:15,613 Speaker 21: a good in Bann, I mean that's life. 1369 01:03:15,853 --> 01:03:18,493 Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, well we have to do that now, even 1370 01:03:18,573 --> 01:03:21,013 Speaker 2: and while civilization is still standing, we still have to 1371 01:03:21,133 --> 01:03:24,093 Speaker 2: work out who are the good and bad leaders? Sam, 1372 01:03:24,613 --> 01:03:27,133 Speaker 2: your thoughts about civilization collapse and what we need to 1373 01:03:27,253 --> 01:03:28,173 Speaker 2: learn in advance of it? 1374 01:03:29,493 --> 01:03:32,093 Speaker 12: Two things, but before I start, Hi, guys and the 1375 01:03:32,213 --> 01:03:36,573 Speaker 12: guy just before me are really good. Yes, leadership. You know, 1376 01:03:36,813 --> 01:03:38,853 Speaker 12: lots of people think that the leaders, but they fall 1377 01:03:39,053 --> 01:03:41,373 Speaker 12: our chaos and you know, those kind of people with 1378 01:03:41,533 --> 01:03:44,173 Speaker 12: accidents and all that they just picked up and just 1379 01:03:44,853 --> 01:03:45,413 Speaker 12: give our. 1380 01:03:45,773 --> 01:03:48,573 Speaker 3: Orders and stuff and then head in a situation that's 1381 01:03:48,653 --> 01:03:50,813 Speaker 3: that's critical, isn't it. I mean that's how it's a 1382 01:03:50,853 --> 01:03:53,413 Speaker 3: lot of leader, someone who doesn't freak out, and in 1383 01:03:53,493 --> 01:03:56,653 Speaker 3: a situation where everybody else's panics, there's usually one person 1384 01:03:56,893 --> 01:03:59,253 Speaker 3: who starts to pull things, you know, people together. 1385 01:03:59,373 --> 01:04:02,013 Speaker 2: This happened to me recently, Sam a person went down 1386 01:04:02,133 --> 01:04:04,133 Speaker 2: and with a medical incident and I ended up just 1387 01:04:04,213 --> 01:04:06,493 Speaker 2: running around in a circle while I make Joseph jury 1388 01:04:06,773 --> 01:04:10,853 Speaker 2: just sorted everything out, and that he was the leader 1389 01:04:10,893 --> 01:04:11,813 Speaker 2: and I was the panic. 1390 01:04:13,693 --> 01:04:18,533 Speaker 12: Oh dear, oh yeah. Okay, So so hopefully you'll have 1391 01:04:18,653 --> 01:04:20,733 Speaker 12: a buddy with you if we get stuck in the 1392 01:04:20,773 --> 01:04:22,533 Speaker 12: bush together and you have no idea what to do 1393 01:04:22,653 --> 01:04:28,893 Speaker 12: because they're starving, and you know, well, my thing, there's 1394 01:04:28,933 --> 01:04:31,693 Speaker 12: two things, okay, So number one is weeds and hoobs. 1395 01:04:32,013 --> 01:04:35,613 Speaker 12: How many of us, even in our gardens, rip out 1396 01:04:35,613 --> 01:04:39,013 Speaker 12: a herb and you know weed, thinking it's useless. It's 1397 01:04:39,133 --> 01:04:43,333 Speaker 12: growing profoundly and that could actually save somebody's life. It's 1398 01:04:43,373 --> 01:04:46,733 Speaker 12: a bleeding and you know what cart or what have you. 1399 01:04:47,053 --> 01:04:49,693 Speaker 12: But in an accident, we can't get the internet, we 1400 01:04:49,733 --> 01:04:53,213 Speaker 12: can't get home, were nowhere you know, like yarrow and 1401 01:04:53,293 --> 01:04:55,453 Speaker 12: planting easy munchets. 1402 01:04:55,533 --> 01:04:56,533 Speaker 1: But there we go. 1403 01:04:56,973 --> 01:05:01,573 Speaker 12: You know, Captain what was his name, he crossed the 1404 01:05:01,653 --> 01:05:05,333 Speaker 12: Stuart Island a cook. He used it, him and his 1405 01:05:05,453 --> 01:05:08,573 Speaker 12: boys used it and it's saved from gangreen. So actually 1406 01:05:08,573 --> 01:05:11,893 Speaker 12: helps with infections too, you know. And what you can 1407 01:05:12,053 --> 01:05:14,213 Speaker 12: use for your butt if you go to the toilet, 1408 01:05:14,533 --> 01:05:16,293 Speaker 12: you know, you don't want to use poison ib and 1409 01:05:16,373 --> 01:05:18,813 Speaker 12: if you get poison ivy, what can you use to 1410 01:05:18,973 --> 01:05:23,333 Speaker 12: contradict that? You know, basic stuff. We're rich in this 1411 01:05:23,533 --> 01:05:25,893 Speaker 12: in New Zealand, but how many of us actually know 1412 01:05:26,093 --> 01:05:28,173 Speaker 12: what to do with it? You know what I'm saying. 1413 01:05:28,333 --> 01:05:31,293 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's interesting. Sam. I did this event with another 1414 01:05:31,373 --> 01:05:34,653 Speaker 2: Sam recently, Sam the Trapman, Sam Gibson, and he's written 1415 01:05:34,693 --> 01:05:39,253 Speaker 2: this amazing book called Sam the Trapman. But he was 1416 01:05:39,373 --> 01:05:41,813 Speaker 2: just describing the book. He spends a lot of time 1417 01:05:42,053 --> 01:05:44,333 Speaker 2: in the New Zealand native bush and you know, hunting, 1418 01:05:44,733 --> 01:05:46,973 Speaker 2: and he was just describing in that book all these 1419 01:05:47,053 --> 01:05:50,493 Speaker 2: things that you can use. So if I go into 1420 01:05:50,533 --> 01:05:53,453 Speaker 2: the bush, I see nothing. I just see bosh. He 1421 01:05:53,533 --> 01:05:55,093 Speaker 2: goes to the bush and he sees a supermarket, he 1422 01:05:55,133 --> 01:05:59,213 Speaker 2: sees toilet behaper. He says what's the native New Zealand toothbrush? 1423 01:06:01,653 --> 01:06:04,333 Speaker 12: Yeah, I don't know about that, to be honest with you, 1424 01:06:04,693 --> 01:06:05,493 Speaker 12: what would that be? 1425 01:06:05,973 --> 01:06:06,333 Speaker 3: I don't know. 1426 01:06:06,653 --> 01:06:09,813 Speaker 2: He looks around and he sees the bush. She sees everything. 1427 01:06:09,813 --> 01:06:11,893 Speaker 2: The mushrooms you can eat, the berries you can eat, 1428 01:06:12,093 --> 01:06:13,693 Speaker 2: what you can use for this, what you can use 1429 01:06:13,733 --> 01:06:14,173 Speaker 2: for that. 1430 01:06:14,413 --> 01:06:15,973 Speaker 3: Incredible skill And so I don't. 1431 01:06:15,733 --> 01:06:17,573 Speaker 12: Have to keep my hands on that book. That would 1432 01:06:17,613 --> 01:06:18,333 Speaker 12: be really cool. 1433 01:06:18,613 --> 01:06:20,453 Speaker 2: Yeah. So it's a bunch of stories for his life. 1434 01:06:20,493 --> 01:06:22,213 Speaker 2: So that's just a small part of it. But it's 1435 01:06:22,253 --> 01:06:24,813 Speaker 2: a great read anyway. And it just made me thought, 1436 01:06:25,173 --> 01:06:27,613 Speaker 2: you know, I think that I know so little about 1437 01:06:27,653 --> 01:06:31,013 Speaker 2: the bush and there is so right Sam, there's all 1438 01:06:31,053 --> 01:06:33,133 Speaker 2: the stuff out there that you could use if you 1439 01:06:33,253 --> 01:06:33,973 Speaker 2: just could realize. 1440 01:06:35,333 --> 01:06:38,173 Speaker 12: Sorry, how much we rely on Google.

Matt Heath and 1500 01:09:19,333 --> 01:09:22,053 Speaker 1: Tyler Adams afternoons news talks, they'd be. 1501 01:09:22,532 --> 01:09:26,893 Speaker 2: It is thirteen two three this Texas, says Matt. No, no, no, 1502 01:09:27,213 --> 01:09:31,012 Speaker 2: no no to your suggestion of using moss to wipe 1503 01:09:31,053 --> 01:09:33,652 Speaker 2: your freckle. I did it once in the Tarta door 1504 01:09:33,772 --> 01:09:35,652 Speaker 2: is about forty years ago. The moss on the tree 1505 01:09:35,772 --> 01:09:38,732 Speaker 2: looks so soft and perfect, but I regretted it for 1506 01:09:38,772 --> 01:09:45,253 Speaker 2: about four days while walking like John Wayne by Matt, 1507 01:09:46,492 --> 01:09:49,652 Speaker 2: I suggest you use stinging nettle for bog paper. Thanks 1508 01:09:49,692 --> 01:09:52,133 Speaker 2: for that, Craig, Yep, thanks, okay, right there, Dow Yep, 1509 01:09:52,372 --> 01:09:54,853 Speaker 2: so that in your book. As soon as some civilization 1510 01:09:55,572 --> 01:09:57,213 Speaker 2: breaks down, I'll be off into the bush to find 1511 01:09:57,253 --> 01:10:03,932 Speaker 2: some stinging needle and I'll go, Craig, what I mean? 1512 01:10:04,293 --> 01:10:05,812 Speaker 2: You know, I don't want to be too focused on 1513 01:10:06,013 --> 01:10:08,093 Speaker 2: that part of things. But society went fear all over 1514 01:10:08,133 --> 01:10:10,772 Speaker 2: to paper during COVID. Could you imagine the carnage off 1515 01:10:10,812 --> 01:10:13,372 Speaker 2: the internet and access to food disappeared. 1516 01:10:13,372 --> 01:10:14,452 Speaker 3: People lost their mind. 1517 01:10:15,612 --> 01:10:19,532 Speaker 2: Terrifying, And yet that's how for most of our evolution 1518 01:10:20,013 --> 01:10:24,092 Speaker 2: humans have lived out on the bush hunting, looking after ourselves, 1519 01:10:24,333 --> 01:10:26,852 Speaker 2: only carrying on our back, only only what we can 1520 01:10:26,893 --> 01:10:27,612 Speaker 2: carry on our back. 1521 01:10:28,333 --> 01:10:28,772 Speaker 3: We are the. 1522 01:10:31,213 --> 01:10:33,612 Speaker 2: Outliers in the history of humanity, not knowing anything and 1523 01:10:33,692 --> 01:10:35,893 Speaker 2: being pampered and not being able to survive outside of 1524 01:10:35,933 --> 01:10:40,173 Speaker 2: our houses. But we're talking about the generational thing, and 1525 01:10:40,293 --> 01:10:42,173 Speaker 2: I think one of the first things you need to 1526 01:10:42,213 --> 01:10:47,132 Speaker 2: grab when civilization collapses as a boomer, because each generation 1527 01:10:47,333 --> 01:10:49,852 Speaker 2: knows less of the practical stuff than the last one. 1528 01:10:49,973 --> 01:10:51,572 Speaker 2: So I think the most important thing you can get 1529 01:10:51,572 --> 01:10:52,412 Speaker 2: yourself as a boomer. 1530 01:10:53,013 --> 01:10:54,772 Speaker 3: It's a good strategy. They got the knowledge. 1531 01:10:54,853 --> 01:10:56,532 Speaker 2: My dad knows how to do a lot of stuff. Yeah, 1532 01:10:56,652 --> 01:11:01,333 Speaker 2: I'd be immediately trying to grab him as to replace 1533 01:11:01,452 --> 01:11:02,093 Speaker 2: Google for me. 1534 01:11:02,933 --> 01:11:05,253 Speaker 3: That's a good idea. Oh one hundred and eighty ten 1535 01:11:05,293 --> 01:11:06,492 Speaker 3: eighty is that number to call? 1536 01:11:07,013 --> 01:11:10,772 Speaker 2: Andrew? Welcome to the show you're doing, and here's your boomer. 1537 01:11:11,772 --> 01:11:13,213 Speaker 3: I need one, I'll claim you, Andrew. 1538 01:11:14,372 --> 01:11:16,932 Speaker 8: But I but I can't wait to be the fun 1539 01:11:17,093 --> 01:11:19,893 Speaker 8: behind what you search and ask me and send you 1540 01:11:19,973 --> 01:11:20,572 Speaker 8: in the ritery. 1541 01:11:21,492 --> 01:11:22,892 Speaker 3: Okay, right, I'll keep it clean. 1542 01:11:24,333 --> 01:11:30,973 Speaker 8: If the Internet fails, and knowledge doesn't just disappear just 1543 01:11:30,973 --> 01:11:34,013 Speaker 8: because it's not held in the Internet, doesn't mean we 1544 01:11:34,173 --> 01:11:38,013 Speaker 8: don't know how we discovered penicillin anymore. Not all of 1545 01:11:38,093 --> 01:11:41,692 Speaker 8: us know all of it. But I still think very 1546 01:11:41,812 --> 01:11:47,772 Speaker 8: quickly society would return to similar roles at what we 1547 01:11:47,933 --> 01:11:52,012 Speaker 8: already play, but in a different format. So you're still 1548 01:11:52,053 --> 01:11:54,652 Speaker 8: going to have your hambers and gatherers. You're still going 1549 01:11:54,732 --> 01:11:57,932 Speaker 8: to have your traders and barterers that you know can't 1550 01:11:57,973 --> 01:12:00,213 Speaker 8: have something. But if you give me two dad cheap, 1551 01:12:00,253 --> 01:12:03,013 Speaker 8: I'll give you, you know whatever. They will still be 1552 01:12:03,133 --> 01:12:07,612 Speaker 8: that going on. There'll be the organizers that defectively the 1553 01:12:07,692 --> 01:12:10,452 Speaker 8: leaders and talked about it before that do share all 1554 01:12:10,572 --> 01:12:13,173 Speaker 8: but really good at getting up to do the best 1555 01:12:13,213 --> 01:12:17,253 Speaker 8: of what we can. But well that's what a leader 1556 01:12:17,492 --> 01:12:21,572 Speaker 8: is like. A good leader impairs people to do the 1557 01:12:21,732 --> 01:12:25,053 Speaker 8: best thing of whatever they're doing that they can do. So, 1558 01:12:26,013 --> 01:12:28,213 Speaker 8: you know, and it's quite a simple thing. And I'm 1559 01:12:28,333 --> 01:12:30,732 Speaker 8: not one of those people. I always think I can 1560 01:12:30,772 --> 01:12:34,333 Speaker 8: do it better, So I can't lead well from that, 1561 01:12:35,293 --> 01:12:37,973 Speaker 8: you know that standing point to look, I don't I 1562 01:12:38,053 --> 01:12:41,213 Speaker 8: don't think it would be obviously the level of cataicalism 1563 01:12:41,293 --> 01:12:45,812 Speaker 8: would be a driving force, but I don't think it would. 1564 01:12:46,692 --> 01:12:49,333 Speaker 8: We already have this knowledge, so I don't think we 1565 01:12:49,492 --> 01:12:54,173 Speaker 8: were just turn into this you know, horrible mess of 1566 01:12:54,293 --> 01:12:56,893 Speaker 8: killing each other because most of us don't want to 1567 01:12:56,973 --> 01:13:01,492 Speaker 8: do that. Most of us still like the idea of 1568 01:13:01,612 --> 01:13:05,532 Speaker 8: society and common goood and you know, so I just 1569 01:13:06,213 --> 01:13:08,412 Speaker 8: would it be as bad as we say. 1570 01:13:09,253 --> 01:13:12,492 Speaker 2: But what about the survival of well, not the survival 1571 01:13:12,532 --> 01:13:14,732 Speaker 2: of the fittest, the survival of the most ruthless. So 1572 01:13:14,812 --> 01:13:18,013 Speaker 2: you've got people now that are operating outside of the 1573 01:13:18,133 --> 01:13:21,892 Speaker 2: law with violence, You've got gangs and such. 1574 01:13:22,293 --> 01:13:25,093 Speaker 8: Yeah, but that's still only a portion of society. So 1575 01:13:25,333 --> 01:13:28,772 Speaker 8: my argument to that is, well, most of us are 1576 01:13:28,973 --> 01:13:33,133 Speaker 8: doing that. So given a choice, because remember I still 1577 01:13:33,213 --> 01:13:36,133 Speaker 8: think we have this knowledge, we don't have all of 1578 01:13:36,213 --> 01:13:39,173 Speaker 8: it individually, but as a collect if we still do, 1579 01:13:39,333 --> 01:13:42,772 Speaker 8: it's still exist. So I don't know how many of 1580 01:13:42,853 --> 01:13:47,133 Speaker 8: us would go, Well, I build and sell houses today, bron, 1581 01:13:47,213 --> 01:13:48,772 Speaker 8: I think, but tomorrow I'm going to go and kill 1582 01:13:48,853 --> 01:13:53,133 Speaker 8: people and steal your food, meath leap of you know. 1583 01:13:55,093 --> 01:13:55,572 Speaker 2: Most of us. 1584 01:13:55,692 --> 01:13:56,173 Speaker 5: I don't. 1585 01:13:57,492 --> 01:14:00,333 Speaker 3: I like your optimism, but I would say, you know, 1586 01:14:00,412 --> 01:14:03,093 Speaker 3: this is my view obviously. But the LA riots come 1587 01:14:03,133 --> 01:14:05,572 Speaker 3: to mind, and so it all kicked off there and 1588 01:14:05,812 --> 01:14:08,532 Speaker 3: police had to leave that area of LA and it 1589 01:14:08,652 --> 01:14:11,612 Speaker 3: was chaos. There was normal people breaking into businesses, stealing 1590 01:14:11,692 --> 01:14:14,213 Speaker 3: whatever they could because they lost their frecking mind. There 1591 01:14:14,293 --> 01:14:16,492 Speaker 3: was no police and rules to stop them. And that's 1592 01:14:16,572 --> 01:14:18,452 Speaker 3: just one small example. Do you know, do you not 1593 01:14:18,492 --> 01:14:20,652 Speaker 3: think there's an element in humanity that when there's no 1594 01:14:20,812 --> 01:14:22,253 Speaker 3: rules and nobody will stop you. 1595 01:14:22,452 --> 01:14:24,333 Speaker 2: And so someone goes because you've already got thieves that 1596 01:14:24,412 --> 01:14:26,772 Speaker 2: break into houses because they want stuff that other people 1597 01:14:26,893 --> 01:14:29,852 Speaker 2: have if there's no police and no justice system to 1598 01:14:29,973 --> 01:14:33,052 Speaker 2: punish them for doing it. Aren't just the five percent 1599 01:14:33,372 --> 01:14:36,133 Speaker 2: of terrible people in the population just going to try 1600 01:14:36,133 --> 01:14:41,452 Speaker 2: and take everything of good people like yourself, Andrew, my. 1601 01:14:41,532 --> 01:14:44,932 Speaker 8: Aunt and well, look on two things in life. I'm 1602 01:14:44,933 --> 01:14:50,133 Speaker 8: an idealist and I'm nai despite having good knowledge hope 1603 01:14:50,732 --> 01:14:55,532 Speaker 8: that most people but I don't. I would almost have 1604 01:14:55,652 --> 01:14:59,053 Speaker 8: to be left in a one on one battle with 1605 01:14:59,213 --> 01:15:04,013 Speaker 8: the only other inhabitant averse over food in order to 1606 01:15:04,093 --> 01:15:04,852 Speaker 8: want to kill them. 1607 01:15:05,452 --> 01:15:07,412 Speaker 2: Well, bless you, Andrew.

It's absolutely kicked off. What would happen or 1654 01:17:11,372 --> 01:17:13,173 Speaker 3: what skill do you think you would need if the 1655 01:17:13,213 --> 01:17:16,452 Speaker 3: internet went down in society started to collapse those basic 1656 01:17:16,572 --> 01:17:19,572 Speaker 3: skills that you think would get you through and help 1657 01:17:19,692 --> 01:17:20,492 Speaker 3: to start rebuilding. 1658 01:17:20,572 --> 01:17:23,293 Speaker 2: This Texas is a country riddled with active super volcanoes. 1659 01:17:23,412 --> 01:17:25,532 Speaker 2: Like New Zealand, we probably should have an entire country 1660 01:17:25,572 --> 01:17:31,692 Speaker 2: evacuation plan. Hi, guys. The fact that, the fact is 1661 01:17:31,772 --> 01:17:34,653 Speaker 2: that the massive growth and distribution of food relies on technology. 1662 01:17:34,692 --> 01:17:37,932 Speaker 2: Without fuel, actricity and logistics, a lot of people won't survive. 1663 01:17:38,013 --> 01:17:41,093 Speaker 2: It's as simple as that living a subsistent lifetime can 1664 01:17:41,133 --> 01:17:43,572 Speaker 2: probably only support a couple of million people at most. 1665 01:17:43,853 --> 01:17:46,412 Speaker 2: It's a sad fact, but at least three million people 1666 01:17:46,412 --> 01:17:49,732 Speaker 2: in New Zealand would not survive, and the balance would 1667 01:17:49,732 --> 01:17:52,012 Speaker 2: have to live in a dog eat dog manner until 1668 01:17:52,053 --> 01:17:56,093 Speaker 2: the basics of technology could be re established hundreds of 1669 01:17:56,213 --> 01:17:59,852 Speaker 2: years from now. Sorry, but that's what will happen. Kindest regards, Dave. 1670 01:18:00,532 --> 01:18:01,452 Speaker 2: I mean you're a realist. 1671 01:18:01,612 --> 01:18:03,412 Speaker 3: M Yeah, there's a lot of truth in that. 1672 01:18:03,772 --> 01:18:08,053 Speaker 2: This Texas says one second, where was it? It was 1673 01:18:08,093 --> 01:18:12,972 Speaker 2: an interesting one. It was basically like U clowns say, 1674 01:18:13,053 --> 01:18:17,653 Speaker 2: I can't remember, I can't find it? Boom are you clowns? 1675 01:18:17,853 --> 01:18:20,572 Speaker 2: Are you clowns? Suggesting that society would collapse without the Internet. 1676 01:18:20,973 --> 01:18:23,333 Speaker 2: It's only been around forty years and the world did 1677 01:18:23,412 --> 01:18:25,532 Speaker 2: fine without it that this is one of these people 1678 01:18:25,572 --> 01:18:27,532 Speaker 2: that's questioning the premise that you might. But the premise 1679 01:18:27,612 --> 01:18:30,333 Speaker 2: of this entire chat as that people are losing knowledge 1680 01:18:30,732 --> 01:18:33,652 Speaker 2: and people don't have books anymore. So people are going 1681 01:18:33,692 --> 01:18:36,133 Speaker 2: to YouTube and Google to get their answers to the 1682 01:18:36,253 --> 01:18:39,213 Speaker 2: basic things in life, how to plant things, you know, 1683 01:18:39,372 --> 01:18:43,052 Speaker 2: how to fix things. And the more we get dependent 1684 01:18:43,093 --> 01:18:44,412 Speaker 2: on the internet, we're only going to get more and 1685 01:18:44,452 --> 01:18:46,452 Speaker 2: more dependent. I mean a lot of houses are completely 1686 01:18:46,492 --> 01:18:48,412 Speaker 2: digital now and don't have a single book in them. Yeah, 1687 01:18:48,772 --> 01:18:52,052 Speaker 2: and so this whole chat started because I came across 1688 01:18:52,093 --> 01:18:54,933 Speaker 2: a bok that just lists all the basic things you 1689 01:18:55,093 --> 01:18:58,013 Speaker 2: need to survive as a human. And so if you 1690 01:18:58,093 --> 01:18:59,692 Speaker 2: had that book on the shelf, then you just open 1691 01:18:59,772 --> 01:19:01,093 Speaker 2: up and look it up. But if you're depending on 1692 01:19:01,133 --> 01:19:03,772 Speaker 2: the Internet and civilization breaks down, then you won't have 1693 01:19:03,893 --> 01:19:04,573 Speaker 2: that stuff. 1694 01:19:04,412 --> 01:19:06,532 Speaker 3: Exactly, and it would be a mess of up people, 1695 01:19:06,612 --> 01:19:08,652 Speaker 3: no doubt about it. I mean, everything that we rely 1696 01:19:08,812 --> 01:19:12,652 Speaker 3: on pretty much is governed by the Internet. The financial network, 1697 01:19:12,692 --> 01:19:17,053 Speaker 3: communication supply chain, healthcare infrastructure. The list goes on. 1698 01:19:17,293 --> 01:19:19,492 Speaker 2: I mean most people don't even have folding money. They 1699 01:19:19,612 --> 01:19:22,092 Speaker 2: just people walk around with their phone and swipe their phones. 1700 01:19:22,293 --> 01:19:24,812 Speaker 2: So you know, are you clown suggesting that society would 1701 01:19:24,812 --> 01:19:26,852 Speaker 2: collapse throughout the Internet. Well, a lot of people wouldn't 1702 01:19:26,853 --> 01:19:28,412 Speaker 2: even be able to pay their bills without the Internet. 1703 01:19:28,532 --> 01:19:29,252 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. 1704 01:19:29,893 --> 01:19:31,973 Speaker 2: People don't have the readies to do it. 1705 01:19:32,213 --> 01:19:34,532 Speaker 3: That would be a bad, bad thing if the Internet disappeared, 1706 01:19:34,572 --> 01:19:36,053 Speaker 3: We'd all be in a lot of trouble, no doubt 1707 01:19:36,053 --> 01:19:36,412 Speaker 3: about that. 1708 01:19:36,812 --> 01:19:39,213 Speaker 2: And someone before the breaks, as you said of their 1709 01:19:39,293 --> 01:19:41,572 Speaker 2: zombies in this apocalypse, and no, I was not thinking 1710 01:19:41,612 --> 01:19:44,492 Speaker 2: there were zombies. But the solution that my mate men 1711 01:19:44,492 --> 01:19:46,692 Speaker 2: and I are came up with for a zombie attack 1712 01:19:46,812 --> 01:19:47,293 Speaker 2: is perfect. 1713 01:19:47,452 --> 01:19:47,652 Speaker 3: Yep. 1714 01:19:47,973 --> 01:19:50,572 Speaker 2: So you go to a stadium, so zombies attack, you 1715 01:19:50,652 --> 01:19:53,092 Speaker 2: head down at Eden Park or for South Bar Stadium 1716 01:19:53,572 --> 01:19:55,652 Speaker 2: and you live in there. You have your field in 1717 01:19:55,692 --> 01:19:56,892 Speaker 2: the middle for doing your stuff. 1718 01:19:57,053 --> 01:19:57,213 Speaker 5: Yep. 1719 01:19:57,293 --> 01:19:59,412 Speaker 2: You've got protection like walls all the way around the 1720 01:19:59,452 --> 01:20:02,612 Speaker 2: outside for the to keep the zombies out. You've got 1721 01:20:02,692 --> 01:20:05,253 Speaker 2: kitchens in these stadiums, and you've got the corporate boxes 1722 01:20:05,333 --> 01:20:05,893 Speaker 2: to live in. 1723 01:20:06,293 --> 01:20:07,253 Speaker 3: That is easy, genius. 1724 01:20:07,333 --> 01:20:09,692 Speaker 2: Yeah, first thing you want to do is secure South 1725 01:20:09,732 --> 01:20:11,972 Speaker 2: Of Stadium in a zombie apocalypse and then just secure 1726 01:20:12,013 --> 01:20:14,133 Speaker 2: them and you know they're designed to keep people out. 1727 01:20:14,293 --> 01:20:16,852 Speaker 3: Yeah, he probably should have kept that quiet, because now 1728 01:20:16,853 --> 01:20:18,173 Speaker 3: everyone's going to go down to eating bark. 1729 01:20:18,572 --> 01:20:22,173 Speaker 2: Well, first sign of someone's eyes going yellow, I'm running 1730 01:20:22,173 --> 01:20:23,452 Speaker 2: down to Eden Park and shutting the door. 1731 01:20:23,812 --> 01:20:25,932 Speaker 3: Well I'll see you there hopefully.

From what I've heard, Ross, 1755 01:21:36,213 --> 01:21:39,612 Speaker 2: it would be silly to try it. But but you 1756 01:21:39,732 --> 01:21:42,092 Speaker 2: know what about when you're what about when your ammunition 1757 01:21:42,213 --> 01:21:43,012 Speaker 2: runs out? Ross? 1758 01:21:43,612 --> 01:21:45,772 Speaker 4: Well, it's right, that's only part of it. I said, 1759 01:21:45,853 --> 01:21:48,053 Speaker 4: I've got bush skills, I've got mountain skills. I've got 1760 01:21:48,133 --> 01:21:52,133 Speaker 4: the whole bloody lot.

Ross, 1767 01:22:06,732 --> 01:22:09,173 Speaker 2: to live off? Because you know these people that get 1768 01:22:09,213 --> 01:22:10,892 Speaker 2: lost in the bush and they find it really hard 1769 01:22:10,933 --> 01:22:12,492 Speaker 2: to find enough protein to get by. 1770 01:22:13,812 --> 01:22:15,213 Speaker 20: Yeah, well there is. 1771 01:22:15,253 --> 01:22:16,852 Speaker 4: If you know what you're doing.

They would just revert to what 1843 01:25:38,372 --> 01:25:41,333 Speaker 22: they used to what they know. It's the younger generation 1844 01:25:41,452 --> 01:25:42,333 Speaker 22: that would have the problem. 1845 01:25:42,412 --> 01:25:44,012 Speaker 2: Yeah, That's why I was saying before Ellen. The first 1846 01:25:44,013 --> 01:25:46,772 Speaker 2: thing I'd do is find myself a boomer because because 1847 01:25:46,853 --> 01:25:49,053 Speaker 2: boomers no more than Gen X, and Gen X no 1848 01:25:49,253 --> 01:25:53,093 Speaker 2: more than millennials, and then a lot of them younger 1849 01:25:53,133 --> 01:25:55,253 Speaker 2: than that don't know anything at all about practical things. 1850 01:25:56,412 --> 01:25:59,133 Speaker 22: But what I mean, apart from the fact that I 1851 01:25:59,213 --> 01:26:02,053 Speaker 22: guess if you look back at what life was in 1852 01:26:02,213 --> 01:26:05,293 Speaker 22: saying the country in New Zealand, it probably seems like 1853 01:26:05,412 --> 01:26:09,133 Speaker 22: one hundred years earlier compared to the way people overseas. 1854 01:26:09,253 --> 01:26:16,572 Speaker 22: But everyone had also almanacs like Aunt Daisy's or Miss Beaten, 1855 01:26:16,933 --> 01:26:22,892 Speaker 22: missus Beaten. They had all sorts of remedies and problem 1856 01:26:23,013 --> 01:26:27,732 Speaker 22: solving things practically that you could do if things didn't 1857 01:26:27,772 --> 01:26:30,053 Speaker 22: go right, because you couldn't just wander along for the 1858 01:26:30,173 --> 01:26:34,133 Speaker 22: nearest Bunnings. I mean Bunnings didn't exist until about nineteen ninety, 1859 01:26:35,093 --> 01:26:36,412 Speaker 22: but you had to make go. 1860 01:26:36,772 --> 01:26:38,812 Speaker 2: So do you think that one of the things that 1861 01:26:38,812 --> 01:26:41,333 Speaker 2: people should prepare for the worst is to have a 1862 01:26:41,532 --> 01:26:44,653 Speaker 2: physical library of information? 1863 01:26:44,853 --> 01:26:50,372 Speaker 4: Yeah?

But I would 1874 01:27:15,333 --> 01:27:18,492 Speaker 3: assume back then people had those books and they acquired 1875 01:27:18,652 --> 01:27:21,692 Speaker 3: the bits and pieces they needed to do, you know, 1876 01:27:21,853 --> 01:27:24,372 Speaker 3: the things in those books over some time, whereas now 1877 01:27:24,612 --> 01:27:25,852 Speaker 3: the cupboards might be beer. 1878 01:27:26,933 --> 01:27:27,492 Speaker 4: Well, I think. 1879 01:27:28,173 --> 01:27:28,372 Speaker 12: Yeah. 1880 01:27:28,492 --> 01:27:32,572 Speaker 22: I mean, look, people aren't are so used to having 1881 01:27:32,692 --> 01:27:35,492 Speaker 22: everything sort of available to them. So if you look 1882 01:27:35,572 --> 01:27:38,972 Speaker 22: at even just look at every house.

I'm sorry to start off 2079 01:36:38,772 --> 01:36:41,892 Speaker 3: with this one, Gareth Jackets. I should have preread this one. 2080 01:36:42,213 --> 01:36:44,852 Speaker 24: I'm just rocking myself while sucking on my thumb. 2081 01:36:45,053 --> 01:36:47,572 Speaker 3: Oh the trauma that we put you through, so I'll 2082 01:36:47,612 --> 01:36:50,612 Speaker 3: carry on. Have been calculating holiday pay incorrectly, and to 2083 01:36:50,772 --> 01:36:53,492 Speaker 3: fix the problem, they have recalculated what people are rowed 2084 01:36:53,853 --> 01:36:56,333 Speaker 3: up to six years. The thing is, I've worked for 2085 01:36:56,372 --> 01:36:58,612 Speaker 3: the company for twenty five years. Aren't they required to 2086 01:36:58,692 --> 01:37:01,053 Speaker 3: pay me out for twenty five years, not for six? 2087 01:37:01,213 --> 01:37:02,492 Speaker 2: Oh? 2088 01:37:02,612 --> 01:37:04,893 Speaker 24: Yeah, This is a dozy, isn't it. 2089 01:37:05,053 --> 01:37:05,253 Speaker 18: It is? 2090 01:37:06,732 --> 01:37:11,452 Speaker 24: Well, this business is is not alone because as we know, 2091 01:37:11,652 --> 01:37:16,092 Speaker 24: I love the Holidays Act and it makes it pretty 2092 01:37:16,133 --> 01:37:18,492 Speaker 24: difficult to pay someone the correct amount even if you 2093 01:37:18,572 --> 01:37:23,492 Speaker 24: want to. There is a limitation period here, and that's 2094 01:37:23,532 --> 01:37:28,253 Speaker 24: why they're going back six years. You can certainly try 2095 01:37:28,333 --> 01:37:30,612 Speaker 24: and claim the twenty five years, but you're not going 2096 01:37:30,692 --> 01:37:32,013 Speaker 24: to have a legal case for it. 2097 01:37:32,893 --> 01:37:33,133 Speaker 5: Yeah. 2098 01:37:33,412 --> 01:37:37,053 Speaker 2: Right, so is six years because often things are seven years, 2099 01:37:37,053 --> 01:37:38,812 Speaker 2: aren't they Is it a six year. 2100 01:37:41,013 --> 01:37:44,333 Speaker 24: Six years here? I think seven years is for some 2101 01:37:44,572 --> 01:37:48,612 Speaker 24: records and tax stuff, right, Yeah, so yeah, I think 2102 01:37:49,173 --> 01:37:51,173 Speaker 24: I would most probably take the money and enjoy it 2103 01:37:51,412 --> 01:37:56,692 Speaker 24: because it's unexpected money that you're getting. You can make 2104 01:37:56,732 --> 01:37:59,293 Speaker 24: an argument for the full twenty five years worth, but 2105 01:38:00,093 --> 01:38:02,093 Speaker 24: if you push it too hard, the business might not 2106 01:38:02,333 --> 01:38:03,932 Speaker 24: still be in business. 2107 01:38:04,253 --> 01:38:07,533 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I mean that is rough though. Nineteen years incorrect, 2108 01:38:07,853 --> 01:38:10,612 Speaker 2: but yeah, I mean it's just practicality of existence, isn't it? 2109 01:38:10,732 --> 01:38:13,532 Speaker 2: So total? I think it's just the six years for you, 2110 01:38:13,652 --> 01:38:17,293 Speaker 2: I'm afraid, but thank you so much for your text, Sharon. 2111 01:38:17,372 --> 01:38:18,052 Speaker 2: Welcome to the show. 2112 01:38:19,173 --> 01:38:19,732 Speaker 4: Hi, how are you. 2113 01:38:21,612 --> 01:38:22,173 Speaker 3: Gareth is on? 2114 01:38:23,572 --> 01:38:27,492 Speaker 17: Hey? I've got a question for you. My husband's going 2115 01:38:27,732 --> 01:38:31,173 Speaker 17: to be on annual leave over the Christmas break for 2116 01:38:31,253 --> 01:38:34,732 Speaker 17: a week. However, during the annual leave time, he's required 2117 01:38:34,772 --> 01:38:37,852 Speaker 17: to be on call as well. I'm just wondering how 2118 01:38:37,933 --> 01:38:42,092 Speaker 17: that works. As I say it, if you're on annual 2119 01:38:42,173 --> 01:38:44,572 Speaker 17: leave in no phone, no, you're away from work, you've 2120 01:38:44,572 --> 01:38:47,852 Speaker 17: got your call nical wellbeing, you're entitled to you four weeks. 2121 01:38:48,133 --> 01:38:51,452 Speaker 17: But if you're on call as well, so you would 2122 01:38:51,492 --> 01:38:54,253 Speaker 17: get paid for your holiday pay for a week. But 2123 01:38:54,452 --> 01:38:58,812 Speaker 17: then you'd be required to work outside of or anytime 2124 01:38:58,893 --> 01:39:01,492 Speaker 17: actually and get paid anything on call, but you might 2125 01:39:01,572 --> 01:39:02,293 Speaker 17: not get called out. 2126 01:39:03,333 --> 01:39:06,213 Speaker 24: This is this is a very very tricky one, Sharon, 2127 01:39:06,293 --> 01:39:09,973 Speaker 24: and a lot depends on what the restrictions are going 2128 01:39:10,053 --> 01:39:13,572 Speaker 24: to be on your husband's time and the activities he 2129 01:39:13,732 --> 01:39:19,772 Speaker 24: can do. It's a vexed issue that has gone through 2130 01:39:20,612 --> 01:39:24,293 Speaker 24: several court processes and it's still a bit vague, and 2131 01:39:24,412 --> 01:39:27,932 Speaker 24: it really comes down to the particular circumstances of each 2132 01:39:28,013 --> 01:39:31,892 Speaker 24: employment relationship. You know, for example, if it's a job 2133 01:39:32,253 --> 01:39:38,092 Speaker 24: where your husband is prevented from drinking alcohol while he's 2134 01:39:38,213 --> 01:39:41,732 Speaker 24: on call, or needs to be close to home so 2135 01:39:41,933 --> 01:39:45,692 Speaker 24: that he can get to work within a certain period 2136 01:39:45,732 --> 01:39:49,093 Speaker 24: of time, there is likely to be an argument that 2137 01:39:49,213 --> 01:39:51,973 Speaker 24: he's actually working and he should be paid as if 2138 01:39:52,013 --> 01:39:56,972 Speaker 24: he was working. In other cases, being on call actually 2139 01:39:57,133 --> 01:40:01,452 Speaker 24: doesn't really limit you much at all. And you know 2140 01:40:01,812 --> 01:40:04,532 Speaker 24: it might be that if someone calls, you need to 2141 01:40:04,612 --> 01:40:08,692 Speaker 24: get back to them within a few hours, and so 2142 01:40:08,853 --> 01:40:13,532 Speaker 24: it really depends. I would go through that with your husband, 2143 01:40:13,692 --> 01:40:16,692 Speaker 24: look at what the restrictions are, and then start a 2144 01:40:16,732 --> 01:40:17,972 Speaker 24: discussion with the employer. 2145 01:40:19,372 --> 01:40:19,652 Speaker 10: Okay. 2146 01:40:20,652 --> 01:40:25,412 Speaker 24: In most cases where people are expected to be on 2147 01:40:25,692 --> 01:40:29,093 Speaker 24: call as if they were actually working, this is due 2148 01:40:29,253 --> 01:40:31,893 Speaker 24: to the employer not having turned their mind to it, 2149 01:40:32,213 --> 01:40:35,412 Speaker 24: rather than them sitting in a back room thinking about 2150 01:40:35,452 --> 01:40:38,173 Speaker 24: how they can take advantage of someone. So start a 2151 01:40:38,253 --> 01:40:40,412 Speaker 24: conversation and see where you get to. 2152 01:40:42,053 --> 01:40:42,612 Speaker 2: All the best. 2153 01:40:42,812 --> 01:40:44,812 Speaker 3: Yeah, go well shared, and thank you very much for 2154 01:40:45,133 --> 01:40:45,852 Speaker 3: giving us a buzz. 2155 01:40:45,893 --> 01:40:49,133 Speaker 2: Oh, it's no holiday at all unless you can rest, 2156 01:40:49,452 --> 01:40:52,852 Speaker 2: and so that's right on call, you're not, it's not 2157 01:40:52,893 --> 01:40:53,932 Speaker 2: a holiday at all. 2158 01:40:54,652 --> 01:40:56,732 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I didn't realize. So, Gareth, can you be 2159 01:40:56,853 --> 01:40:59,133 Speaker 3: on call and not be paid for that? I would 2160 01:40:59,173 --> 01:41:01,372 Speaker 3: have thought it's a legislation that they have to pay. 2161 01:41:02,372 --> 01:41:06,253 Speaker 24: There definitely needs to be some payment. The question is 2162 01:41:06,372 --> 01:41:09,452 Speaker 24: how much are you going to be paid the full 2163 01:41:09,492 --> 01:41:12,452 Speaker 24: amount or not. And of course if you actually get 2164 01:41:13,053 --> 01:41:16,213 Speaker 24: called out during that period on call, how much are 2165 01:41:16,253 --> 01:41:19,213 Speaker 24: you going to be paid then? So definitely not a 2166 01:41:19,253 --> 01:41:20,173 Speaker 24: straightforward question. 2167 01:41:20,492 --> 01:41:23,452 Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, one hundred eighty ten eighty is the number 2168 01:41:23,492 --> 01:41:25,333 Speaker 3: to call if you've got a question for Gareth Hee 2169 01:41:25,412 --> 01:41:27,372 Speaker 3: is with us for about another fifteen minutes. 2170 01:41:27,452 --> 01:41:30,213 Speaker 2: He's interesting text that's come through. We have never been 2171 01:41:30,293 --> 01:41:33,412 Speaker 2: told that we're not allowed to hook up with other staff. 2172 01:41:33,853 --> 01:41:37,452 Speaker 2: My new girlfriend works on another floor. My manager saw 2173 01:41:37,572 --> 01:41:40,012 Speaker 2: us at a pub told me I should have told 2174 01:41:40,133 --> 01:41:43,053 Speaker 2: him and that this was a problem or could be 2175 01:41:43,133 --> 01:41:46,732 Speaker 2: a problem. Is it illegal to be with staff? Can't 2176 01:41:46,732 --> 01:41:48,092 Speaker 2: see nothing in my contract? 2177 01:41:48,492 --> 01:41:48,932 Speaker 3: Spicy? 2178 01:41:49,652 --> 01:41:50,732 Speaker 24: Yeah yeah, yeah. 2179 01:41:51,692 --> 01:41:51,852 Speaker 4: Man. 2180 01:41:52,412 --> 01:41:55,133 Speaker 24: They coming out with all the soucy ones today, aren't they. 2181 01:41:56,372 --> 01:41:58,732 Speaker 24: It really depends on what sort of job it is 2182 01:41:59,133 --> 01:42:07,052 Speaker 24: and what the roles are. Some workplaces prevent or prohibit 2183 01:42:07,213 --> 01:42:12,772 Speaker 24: relationships between a manager and a subordinate for obvious reasons. 2184 01:42:14,053 --> 01:42:17,333 Speaker 24: Other workplaces require you to disclose it so that that 2185 01:42:17,492 --> 01:42:21,412 Speaker 24: can be managed. Obviously, you don't want accusations of favoritism 2186 01:42:21,612 --> 01:42:23,492 Speaker 24: or actual favoritism. 2187 01:42:25,133 --> 01:42:25,732 Speaker 2: In this case. 2188 01:42:25,772 --> 01:42:28,093 Speaker 24: If there's nothing in the employment agreement and there's no 2189 01:42:28,293 --> 01:42:32,133 Speaker 24: policy of it, and the people work at the same 2190 01:42:32,253 --> 01:42:36,213 Speaker 24: workplace but not directly in the same team or in 2191 01:42:36,293 --> 01:42:39,452 Speaker 24: the same reporting line. You kind of wonder what's the issue. 2192 01:42:40,692 --> 01:42:43,412 Speaker 24: So it sounds like this manager is maybe going a 2193 01:42:43,492 --> 01:42:47,213 Speaker 24: bit too far. Be interesting to know more about it. 2194 01:42:47,372 --> 01:42:52,053 Speaker 2: I've got a theory, well just wild theory. I don't 2195 01:42:52,053 --> 01:42:53,932 Speaker 2: know anything. It's funny when you just get a text 2196 01:42:53,973 --> 01:42:57,572 Speaker 2: because more information please nine two to that text. But 2197 01:42:58,652 --> 01:43:00,812 Speaker 2: the manager's seeing you at the pub with this other person. 2198 01:43:01,893 --> 01:43:04,053 Speaker 2: The managers out of line to bring that up right, 2199 01:43:04,492 --> 01:43:07,572 Speaker 2: and does the manager fancy this person highly? 2200 01:43:07,732 --> 01:43:07,932 Speaker 4: Wow? 2201 01:43:08,732 --> 01:43:12,012 Speaker 3: Yeah, we need more handle us well. 2202 01:43:11,893 --> 01:43:13,692 Speaker 2: Otherwise it's such a weird thing to do. I saw 2203 01:43:13,732 --> 01:43:17,133 Speaker 2: you out the pub other than gossiping or I mean, 2204 01:43:17,213 --> 01:43:18,772 Speaker 2: that's an awkward position to put someone on if this, 2205 01:43:18,893 --> 01:43:21,652 Speaker 2: if you're allowed to see someone else, it's not in 2206 01:43:21,692 --> 01:43:24,732 Speaker 2: the contract and work hours, And why is the manager 2207 01:43:24,812 --> 01:43:27,492 Speaker 2: bringing it up in this it's go gossip. But to 2208 01:43:27,532 --> 01:43:30,173 Speaker 2: say it might be a problem, we need more. It 2209 01:43:30,213 --> 01:43:31,973 Speaker 2: sounds like a soap opera. It does, doesn't that We 2210 01:43:32,053 --> 01:43:34,412 Speaker 2: love it? Yeah, I reckon, you need ask your manager 2211 01:43:34,452 --> 01:43:37,652 Speaker 2: if he fancies this this new girlfriend of yours. Actually, 2212 01:43:37,772 --> 01:43:40,893 Speaker 2: to be fair, I've assumed that's that this is a 2213 01:43:41,013 --> 01:43:44,492 Speaker 2: male sending through. I thought my new girlfriend yet Okay, 2214 01:43:44,492 --> 01:43:45,893 Speaker 2: there we go. Well, you know it could be what 2215 01:43:46,213 --> 01:43:49,293 Speaker 2: could be made long assumptions. Send us more details nine 2216 01:43:49,372 --> 01:43:51,173 Speaker 2: two nine two, and then maybe we can give a 2217 01:43:51,213 --> 01:43:52,452 Speaker 2: more detailed answer to your question. 2218 01:43:52,612 --> 01:43:54,812 Speaker 3: Oh eight, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is that number? 2219 01:43:54,933 --> 01:43:57,492 Speaker 3: To call back very shortly.

Good? 2227 01:44:21,732 --> 01:44:22,333 Speaker 11: Hi Gareth. 2228 01:44:24,213 --> 01:44:28,133 Speaker 18: The company that we worked for got hacked last week 2229 01:44:28,612 --> 01:44:33,572 Speaker 18: and as a result, our system went down and has 2230 01:44:33,652 --> 01:44:36,692 Speaker 18: been down for the last ten days. My question is 2231 01:44:36,853 --> 01:44:43,692 Speaker 18: the company is asking us to take that time that 2232 01:44:43,812 --> 01:44:46,253 Speaker 18: we haven't been able to go into the office to 2233 01:44:46,412 --> 01:44:50,572 Speaker 18: take leave without pay, or they are taking that time 2234 01:44:50,652 --> 01:44:55,052 Speaker 18: off of our leave. My question is can they legally 2235 01:44:55,173 --> 01:45:00,652 Speaker 18: do that because the pack was obviously through no fault 2236 01:45:00,692 --> 01:45:01,133 Speaker 18: with ours. 2237 01:45:02,293 --> 01:45:07,812 Speaker 24: Yeah, that's a very tricky situation, isn't it. This is 2238 01:45:07,893 --> 01:45:11,492 Speaker 24: one of those situations that does happen from time to 2239 01:45:11,612 --> 01:45:15,532 Speaker 24: time where the employer can't provide work. The general rule 2240 01:45:15,652 --> 01:45:18,492 Speaker 24: is they can't require you to take leave unless they 2241 01:45:18,572 --> 01:45:23,012 Speaker 24: give you fourteen days notice of that requirement, and even 2242 01:45:23,093 --> 01:45:26,093 Speaker 24: then they have to act in good faith. However, they 2243 01:45:26,213 --> 01:45:30,772 Speaker 24: can ask you to take that time as leave, whether 2244 01:45:31,572 --> 01:45:34,412 Speaker 24: and you'll leave or unpaid leave, and if you agree 2245 01:45:36,293 --> 01:45:40,293 Speaker 24: then that's not a problem. Of course, some employment agreements 2246 01:45:40,492 --> 01:45:44,492 Speaker 24: do have clauses that say if the employer can't provide 2247 01:45:44,532 --> 01:45:48,613 Speaker 24: you with work through no fault of their own, sometimes 2248 01:45:48,732 --> 01:45:54,013 Speaker 24: weather conditions as a common example of that, then they 2249 01:45:54,093 --> 01:45:56,053 Speaker 24: don't have to pay you and they don't have to 2250 01:45:56,133 --> 01:45:59,333 Speaker 24: provide work. So I would carefully check your employment agreement. 2251 01:46:00,133 --> 01:46:02,572 Speaker 24: The other thing is, I don't know what sort of 2252 01:46:02,612 --> 01:46:04,412 Speaker 24: work you do or what sort of business it is, 2253 01:46:04,532 --> 01:46:07,652 Speaker 24: but if they haven't been able to operate for ten days, 2254 01:46:07,692 --> 01:46:12,173 Speaker 24: I imagine that the business is taking quite a hit 2255 01:46:12,333 --> 01:46:18,093 Speaker 24: in terms of income cash flow, and so sometimes you 2256 01:46:18,213 --> 01:46:19,893 Speaker 24: need to think about do I want to win the 2257 01:46:19,973 --> 01:46:24,772 Speaker 24: battle but lose the war. Depending on how big and 2258 01:46:24,893 --> 01:46:28,893 Speaker 24: successful the business is, you know it might actually be 2259 01:46:28,973 --> 01:46:31,692 Speaker 24: a good idea to show a bit of goodwill, not 2260 01:46:31,853 --> 01:46:35,812 Speaker 24: necessarily agree with everything they're asking, but show some goodwill 2261 01:46:35,853 --> 01:46:38,572 Speaker 24: when I'm sure that will be appreciated if you don't, 2262 01:46:39,572 --> 01:46:46,253 Speaker 24: and you know that might have impactful ongoing employment, not directly. 2263 01:46:47,572 --> 01:46:50,773 Speaker 24: But yeah, tricky situation for all involved. 2264 01:46:50,412 --> 01:46:50,732 Speaker 2: Isn't it? 2265 01:46:52,253 --> 01:46:54,412 Speaker 18: Very trickily, very tricky? 2266 01:46:54,492 --> 01:46:54,692 Speaker 21: Yeah? 2267 01:46:54,772 --> 01:46:57,532 Speaker 3: Yeah, all the best with that, Tony, thank you very 2268 01:46:57,612 --> 01:47:00,052 Speaker 3: much for ringing in Jackie. 2269 01:47:00,133 --> 01:47:04,412 Speaker 2: Your question for Gareth him, Yes, but. 2270 01:47:04,492 --> 01:47:05,532 Speaker 12: Peture from putting me on a. 2271 01:47:07,253 --> 01:47:09,293 Speaker 15: That's just a good question and mine. 2272 01:47:10,452 --> 01:47:12,213 Speaker 2: Did she just say please don't put me on here? 2273 01:47:12,692 --> 01:47:12,892 Speaker 4: Yeah? 2274 01:47:12,933 --> 01:47:14,893 Speaker 2: I think so.

I was working with I used to be 2285 01:47:45,732 --> 01:47:48,852 Speaker 25: with them for more than twelve years, and then I 2286 01:47:48,933 --> 01:47:51,972 Speaker 25: got a better job offer. I resigned on the seventh 2287 01:47:52,053 --> 01:47:55,732 Speaker 25: of jan and my ansary was on the twenty second 2288 01:47:55,893 --> 01:48:00,572 Speaker 25: of February. I had around fifty three or fifty four 2289 01:48:00,732 --> 01:48:04,732 Speaker 25: days of annual leave and they didn't pay me the 2290 01:48:04,933 --> 01:48:10,492 Speaker 25: full amount for twenty two days, just ten persons. What 2291 01:48:10,692 --> 01:48:14,492 Speaker 25: they said that contention was I didn't work till my 2292 01:48:14,612 --> 01:48:18,053 Speaker 25: anastary day and that's why I wasn't paid for the 2293 01:48:18,133 --> 01:48:18,732 Speaker 25: full amount. 2294 01:48:20,692 --> 01:48:25,692 Speaker 24: Yeah, that is a situation that occurs quite often. There's 2295 01:48:25,732 --> 01:48:30,652 Speaker 24: a common misconception in terms of holidays. When you finish 2296 01:48:30,732 --> 01:48:34,253 Speaker 24: up work. There's two different types of payments that happen. 2297 01:48:34,333 --> 01:48:38,213 Speaker 24: There's payment for the leave which you've become entitled to, 2298 01:48:38,412 --> 01:48:42,293 Speaker 24: which is the leave where you have passed your anniversary date, 2299 01:48:42,893 --> 01:48:45,572 Speaker 24: and then there's a crude leave, and there's a formula 2300 01:48:45,772 --> 01:48:48,932 Speaker 24: in the Act for how that's paid out. Basically, it's 2301 01:48:50,213 --> 01:48:52,692 Speaker 24: the accruede leave is paid out at eight percent of 2302 01:48:52,812 --> 01:48:57,013 Speaker 24: your earnings for that year. So from what you've told me, 2303 01:48:57,372 --> 01:49:02,132 Speaker 24: it sounds like the company has paid it out correctly, 2304 01:49:03,253 --> 01:49:06,572 Speaker 24: although it does seem like quite a big difference. I 2305 01:49:06,652 --> 01:49:09,852 Speaker 24: would just ask them for a breakdown. They are required 2306 01:49:09,893 --> 01:49:12,932 Speaker 24: to bride you with the breakdown of your final pay 2307 01:49:13,372 --> 01:49:16,452 Speaker 24: and that should show the two different amounts of leave. 2308 01:49:18,133 --> 01:49:22,173 Speaker 25: Right So, if I had taken annual leave in should 2309 01:49:22,173 --> 01:49:25,852 Speaker 25: I resigning right away? How would have been fathful? 2310 01:49:26,293 --> 01:49:28,652 Speaker 6: Because that's a few two days of annual leave. 2311 01:49:29,732 --> 01:49:33,013 Speaker 24: There still would have been a difference for leave that 2312 01:49:33,253 --> 01:49:37,253 Speaker 24: you had accrued but not become entitled to when your 2313 01:49:37,412 --> 01:49:40,253 Speaker 24: final pay was processed. The only way that wouldn't have 2314 01:49:40,372 --> 01:49:43,133 Speaker 24: happened is if you took all fifty two days leave. 2315 01:49:43,293 --> 01:49:46,893 Speaker 24: But I'd be quite surprised if your employer would have 2316 01:49:46,973 --> 01:49:51,133 Speaker 24: allowed you to do that. Okay, the best thing to 2317 01:49:51,253 --> 01:49:53,732 Speaker 24: do is to ask them for a breakdown and that 2318 01:49:53,853 --> 01:49:55,333 Speaker 24: should set it out clearly for you. 2319 01:49:55,933 --> 01:49:59,732 Speaker 3: Yeah, good luck with that, Kevin. One final question here 2320 01:49:59,772 --> 01:50:00,933 Speaker 3: have I text. 2321 01:50:01,253 --> 01:50:02,052 Speaker 24: Not about the holidays? 2322 01:50:02,093 --> 01:50:04,492 Speaker 3: Are not about the Holiday Act? This one's a good one. 2323 01:50:04,532 --> 01:50:10,293 Speaker 3: Though I'm a permanent employee and I drive a company vehicle. 2324 01:50:11,893 --> 01:50:15,092 Speaker 3: I think I should be paid when traveling between jobs, 2325 01:50:15,133 --> 01:50:17,572 Speaker 3: but they refuse to do that. Is that under legislation? 2326 01:50:19,333 --> 01:50:25,253 Speaker 24: That sounds quite surprising. Usually you would expect that to 2327 01:50:25,372 --> 01:50:29,372 Speaker 24: be paid. It sounds like it's work, But of course, 2328 01:50:29,452 --> 01:50:33,412 Speaker 24: it really depends on what's in this employment agreement. It 2329 01:50:33,532 --> 01:50:36,293 Speaker 24: depends on the nature of the work. Usually I would 2330 01:50:36,333 --> 01:50:40,772 Speaker 24: expect an employee who was driving a work vehicle between 2331 01:50:40,853 --> 01:50:42,692 Speaker 24: jobs to be paid for that travel time. 2332 01:50:43,372 --> 01:50:47,052 Speaker 2: Well, this person that always has been the company our todays, 2333 01:50:47,452 --> 01:50:49,893 Speaker 2: she will they will only be pay her when she 2334 01:50:50,253 --> 01:50:51,572 Speaker 2: arrived to site. 2335 01:50:53,053 --> 01:50:58,372 Speaker 24: Yeah, okay, so that's slightly different. Often in the construction 2336 01:50:58,572 --> 01:51:04,333 Speaker 24: industry it is agreed in the employment agreement that payment 2337 01:51:04,492 --> 01:51:09,052 Speaker 24: only starts from the place of work, which is work site. 2338 01:51:09,772 --> 01:51:14,293 Speaker 24: In other cases, there's a there's a yard or an 2339 01:51:14,333 --> 01:51:17,812 Speaker 24: office that they start from, and then the travel would 2340 01:51:17,893 --> 01:51:21,732 Speaker 24: be covered. It is a difficult one because it really 2341 01:51:21,772 --> 01:51:25,693 Speaker 24: depends on what's been agreed between the parties. Now, occasionally 2342 01:51:26,053 --> 01:51:30,452 Speaker 24: you find cases where there is no employment agreement and 2343 01:51:30,572 --> 01:51:33,452 Speaker 24: it hasn't been set out what's agreed between the parties, 2344 01:51:33,893 --> 01:51:35,852 Speaker 24: and the employee thinks they've agreed to one thing and 2345 01:51:36,053 --> 01:51:38,372 Speaker 24: the company thinks they've agreed to something else. 2346 01:51:40,013 --> 01:51:43,132 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, very good, Gareth, thank you so much. As always, 2347 01:51:43,173 --> 01:51:46,452 Speaker 3: we've got hundreds of textall save all those for next time, 2348 01:51:46,532 --> 01:51:48,532 Speaker 3: and we promise we'll weed out those holiday bay ones. 2349 01:51:49,133 --> 01:51:50,133 Speaker 3: We won't do that to you again. 2350 01:51:50,173 --> 01:51:52,053 Speaker 24: It's to be fair and you're just like seeing me 2351 01:51:52,173 --> 01:51:52,572 Speaker 24: in pain. 2352 01:51:52,893 --> 01:51:53,253 Speaker 3: Yeah, I do. 2353 01:51:53,412 --> 01:51:55,812 Speaker 2: Actually, the problem is there about ninety five percent of 2354 01:51:56,013 --> 01:51:57,452 Speaker 2: the text of course, So. 2355 01:51:57,812 --> 01:51:59,412 Speaker 24: Yeah, yeah, let's sell you what There's going to be 2356 01:51:59,452 --> 01:52:01,612 Speaker 24: nothing to discuss if they bring in this new act. 2357 01:52:01,812 --> 01:52:04,652 Speaker 3: Yeah exactly.
