We knew the data was bad, we didn't 7 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:22,680 Speaker 2: realize it was going to be quite that bad. We 8 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 2: just got the worst year economically since nineteen ninety one 9 00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:27,280 Speaker 2: according to the GDP data. We'll have a chat to 10 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,640 Speaker 2: Westpac about that after seven, and then Michael Riddell, formerly 11 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 2: of the Reserve Bank, on just how badly Adrian or 12 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:36,199 Speaker 2: has actually stuffed this up again the government's having to 13 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 2: force UNIS to protect free speech. Well, speak to the 14 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 2: New Zealand Initiative about that House New Zealand on striking 15 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 2: some targets but missing outs, and will wrap the week 16 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:45,160 Speaker 2: with Tim and Trisherson. 17 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:46,879 Speaker 3: Heather duplicy l. 18 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,239 Speaker 2: How good is that news out overnight that Liam Dawson's 19 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,560 Speaker 2: be Lawson's been confirmed as a driver for red Bull 20 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 2: for twenty twenty five. I mean, I know it's kind 21 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 2: of been I suppose one of the worst kept secrets 22 00:00:57,960 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 2: in F one of late. So it kind of feels 23 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 2: a little today like a Fader company, but actually it 24 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,839 Speaker 2: isn't at all. And this is an amazing success story 25 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 2: for a kid from New Zealand. I mean, you think 26 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 2: about it, Liam Lawson's just taken one of only twenty 27 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 2: spots available in F one next year. That is an 28 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 2: incredible feat for someone from a small country of only 29 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 2: five million people, competing against the best drivers in the 30 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 2: entire world. It just goes to show how incredibly talented 31 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 2: a driver he is and what a reward as well, 32 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 2: right for all of the sacrifice that he and his 33 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 2: family has made to get him to this position. He 34 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 2: left school at sixteen headed off overseas to try his 35 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 2: hand at being a driver. His parents especially had to 36 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 2: give up so much for this to happen. That to 37 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,040 Speaker 2: relocate from Hawks Bay to book a Kobe, to get 38 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,400 Speaker 2: him to the best place in the country to develop 39 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,680 Speaker 2: his skills. They even sold their house to be able 40 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 2: to keep funding his racing. I mean, that is a 41 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 2: massive thing for parents to do when you think about it, 42 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 2: to upend their lives and give up their security to 43 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 2: give a child a best shot at what a lot 44 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 2: of people would have said to them would be a 45 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 2: crazy dream for a kid in a country that's only 46 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 2: got five million people, And actually this is the first 47 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 2: time that it's really starting to pay off. I mean, 48 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 2: you might assume that because Liam Lawson's been right up 49 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 2: there in the top tier of races in the world, 50 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 2: that he was already raking it in. But actually he's 51 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,239 Speaker 2: been racing on a salary of about one hundred thousand 52 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,679 Speaker 2: dollars a year, which is fine, but I mean for 53 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 2: somebody with a celebrity he's got, with the skill he's got, 54 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 2: with the sacrifice he and his parents have had to 55 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 2: make to get there, that's actually a surprisingly small salary, 56 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 2: don't you think Now in a year where we have 57 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 2: had no end of amazing sports success stories, from lulusun 58 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 2: to Hamishkur to the Black Caps beating India in India 59 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 2: for the first time ever, you would have to say 60 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 2: that this story, Liam Lawson's story has got to be 61 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 2: right up there who. 62 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 3: News of the world. In ninety seconds, Kiers. 63 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 2: Starmer has been up in front of the Liaison Committee 64 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 2: for the first time and it turns out the UK 65 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 2: mirrors our issues when it comes to emergency housing. 66 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 4: The numbers you quote to me on hopeless no tempora accommodation, Apauli, 67 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 4: that is what we inherited and you will have seen that. 68 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 4: Just in the last week to the Deputy Prime Ministers 69 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:06,799 Speaker 4: set out the further the money we're putting into dealing 70 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 4: with homelessness and temporary accommodation. 71 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 2: Trump's case in Georgia about election subversion hasn't been thrown out, 72 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 2: but the DA has been disqualified from being able to 73 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 2: prosecute him because of a significant appearance of impropriety. 74 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 5: The Georgia Court of Appeals is saying that it's a 75 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 5: significant appearance of impropriety caused by the conduct of a 76 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 5: public prosecutor. That is willis, how she behaved, how she 77 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 5: was speaking about the case about Trump publicly. 78 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 2: Now, the Feed and Jerome are worried about Trump's tariffs 79 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 2: and the effect they're going to have an inflation. 80 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 6: We don't know what'll be tariffed from what countries, for 81 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 6: how long, in what size. We don't know whether they'll 82 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 6: be retaliatory tariffs. We don't know what the transmission of 83 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 6: any of that will be into consumer prices. 84 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 2: Meanwhile, a bipartisan government spending bill has gone back to 85 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 2: the drawing board after only a few days, or rather 86 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 2: only a few days before federal funding runs out. After 87 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 2: Trump wasn't a fan. Now it has sent as from 88 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 2: both sides lamenting that nothing can be done without their 89 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 2: overlord saying so. And Trump's former economic advisor knows who 90 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 2: else is to blame for one hundred billion dollars in 91 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 2: disaster aid not going to victims. 92 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 7: For doose brothers have a lot of political influence right now, 93 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,599 Speaker 7: because you know, they highlighted a lot of the port 94 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 7: and they blew it up, and President Trump was on 95 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 7: board with blowing it up. 96 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 2: Giselle Pelicott in France, her husband and fifty others have 97 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 2: all been sentenced just in the last few hours for 98 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 2: raping her. 99 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 8: I'm thinking about the other families affected by this case 100 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:41,720 Speaker 8: and the non recognized victims in these stories that are 101 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 8: often in the shadows. You must know you share my struggle. 102 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 2: Get back to the US. Luisi Mangioni, the shooter, has 103 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 2: waived his extradition to New York, agreeing to be transferred, 104 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 2: meaning he could appear in front of a court in 105 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:54,599 Speaker 2: New York this morning. 106 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 9: He was occasionally smiling, looked very relaxed. His Pennsylvania attorney 107 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 9: Thomas Dicky, had his arm around his chair and it 108 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 9: has been a bit of a surface atmosphere here with 109 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 9: about a dozen Luigi Mangioni supporters who have come out 110 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 9: here with signs and whatnot supporting him. 111 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 2: And finally, the NBA team, the Charlotte Hornets. This year's 112 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 2: grinched before Christmas. So what happened is the team did 113 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 2: a mid game promo where they invited a young fan 114 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 2: on camera to come down to the court and then 115 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 2: they gave him a PS five for Christmas. Now, how 116 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,600 Speaker 2: cool is that? A PS five when you're a kid 117 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 2: for Christmas? Until he didn't get the PS five because 118 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 2: as soon as the cameras were switched off for some reason, 119 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 2: they then took the PS five off him and gave 120 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,359 Speaker 2: him a team jersey instead. Anyway, as a result of 121 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 2: that huge amount of backlash, now the Hornets have apologized, 122 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 2: saying it was on an on court skip that missed 123 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 2: the mark. Yeah, and included bad decision making and poor communication. 124 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 2: They're going to give the kids the PS five back 125 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 2: and they've invited him to a VIP experience at their 126 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 2: next game. So right, that's used of the world in 127 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,840 Speaker 2: ninety seconds. Now you'll know that because we've talked about 128 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 2: it heaps and Mike's team talking about it a lot. 129 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 2: EV's are having it tough, but it looks like Tesla 130 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 2: in particular is it doing it particularly tough, and particularly 131 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 2: in Europe. Ev sales across Europe are down around about 132 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 2: ten percent, but Tesla is down about forty percent. Now 133 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 2: a bunch of reasons for this, analysts reckon. Part of 134 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 2: the problem is the EU's introduced these seven percent tariffs 135 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 2: on Chinese made cars, and Tesla of course ships some 136 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,039 Speaker 2: cars in from China, so they'll be copying it. That 137 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 2: makes them more expensive. Also, they had a massive spike 138 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 2: in sales last year because of the temporary price cut, 139 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 2: so if you were going to buy a Tesly, you 140 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 2: were probably going to buy it last year and not 141 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 2: this year. Therefore the slump in sales. Also, and this 142 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 2: is kind of a fair point, isn't it, Tesla's cars 143 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 2: are starting to look a bit old. I mean, they 144 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 2: haven't had an update in Louie while so you're getting 145 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 2: the same old stuff. But also apparently some customers in 146 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 2: the EU are shunning the brand because Elon Musk backed 147 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,239 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. Thirteen past six. 148 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 1: The Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 149 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 1: by News Talks EV. 150 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, they don't forget the Kiwi sponsors who are also 151 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 2: behind and Liam Lawson, especially road and racing. That's a 152 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 2: fair point as well. They did help out a lot. 153 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 2: Sixteen past six. 154 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, Goney, Brig. 155 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:09,359 Speaker 2: Smith given funds management with. 156 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 3: US Morning, Greg, Good morning Heather. 157 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:12,119 Speaker 10: Wow. 158 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 2: That recession how bad? 159 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 11: Yeah? Pretty bad. 160 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 12: So it's the worse since nineteen ninety one if you 161 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 12: take out the COVID slump. So looking at the GDP 162 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 12: contraction the September quarter was one percent. That was way 163 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 12: worse than expectations for a point four percent decline. Then 164 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 12: you look at the gym quarter that was revised to 165 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 12: a one point one percent decrease. 166 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,239 Speaker 13: So we're in a bad spot. 167 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 12: The economy's only point one percent bigger than it was 168 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 12: a year ago. So look who's at fault and what 169 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 12: can be done? Obviously questions that get raised at the 170 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 12: sort of time we started making the call and this 171 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 12: program a few months ago that the Abens had went 172 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 12: too hard on the way up in terms of rate 173 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 12: timing and they and they should be making jumbo cuts 174 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 12: in the order three quarters of percent. Look, they were 175 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 12: seen as a fairly extreme view. Well, you know, we 176 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 12: are in pretty extraordinary circumstances. So yeah, I think this 177 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 12: the sort of the credence. And there's more of those 178 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 12: sort of calls coming out yesterday, which was interesting and 179 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 12: it's pretty sad in many ways. It takes a somewhat 180 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 12: outdated GDP print this is two months old now to 181 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 12: bring it to light. I mean, we talked to a 182 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 12: lot of businesses. Many of them are doing tough anyway 183 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 12: you cut it. Things are bad. So you look at 184 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 12: industry wise, eleven of the sixteen industries saw falls. Manufacturing, 185 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 12: business services, construction goods, producing service industries that was down 186 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 12: almost three percent. The main pocket of brightness is we've 187 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 12: talked about as a dear industry, So primary industry is 188 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 12: up one percent, but everywhere else is under the pump. 189 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 12: It's also remembering that a rising population has also masked 190 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 12: how bad things are. So GENIP per capita was down 191 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 12: one point two percent. That's the eighth consecutive fall. So look, 192 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,599 Speaker 12: I think it confirms not only that the Urbans was 193 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 12: right to put through that fifty basis point rate cut, 194 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 12: but it just raised a question why it actually didn't 195 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,319 Speaker 12: seriously consider going a little bit hard. I mean, their 196 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 12: primary mandate price stability. Our economy is seriously deflating. You know, 197 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 12: we went two hard and rates in the way out 198 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 12: and we're paying the price. And yeah, and those who 199 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 12: talked about sort of a few comments that this Prince then Nadia, 200 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 12: I just wonder if they're talking to real businesses. I 201 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 12: mean jobs are being cut on mass in some companies 202 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,439 Speaker 12: on the brink of failure. So look, I think drastic 203 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 12: actions needed. Have said that before. We probably won't get 204 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 12: it for a while. The aben Z doesn't meet for 205 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 12: more than two months. Agan Or He said that officials 206 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 12: are not in complete holiday and connective needed. Well, look, 207 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 12: if this doesn't draw them out of their batchers, I'm 208 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 12: not sure what will. 209 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 2: I think you've been proven right as time goes on. Hey, 210 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 2: the Fed though, they so it's a lot better in 211 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 2: the States. They're not going to have as many cuts 212 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 2: as they were expecting. 213 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 12: Am Oh yeah, And look, and comparing the aben Z 214 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 12: to what the Fed is doing is like apples and oranges. 215 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 12: I mean, their economy is growing at three percent, So 216 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 12: if they cut rates by core percent as expected, markets 217 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 12: plunged OCAs droon. Powell said that it was a close 218 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 12: call and that investors shouldn't expect only two cuts next 219 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 12: year run the four that was forecast. So eah, their 220 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 12: economy is doing well. There was data overnight confirming this 221 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 12: that grew to revised three point one percent, the third 222 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 12: quarter unemployment forecasts for this year being cut to four 223 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 12: point two percent. They're basically looking for further progress on inflation. 224 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 12: They revised their forecast there it's proving a bit sticky 225 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,320 Speaker 12: to two point five percent end the next year from 226 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 12: two point one percent. They're probably also giving a bit 227 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,319 Speaker 12: of a nod to the inflationary impact of Donald Trump's policies. 228 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 3: Power seed. 229 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 12: The rates have moved down one percent from their peak levels, 230 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 12: but going forward it'll be things will be at a much 231 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 12: slower pace. 232 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 3: So as I. 233 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 12: Said, you know, comparing the US with New Zealand, you 234 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 12: know it's just not accurate. You know, we've got the 235 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 12: west procession COVID side in over thirty years. 236 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 2: Yeah too, right, Okay, give us the numbers. 237 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 12: Okay, So yeah, the markets have actually bounced back a 238 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 12: little bit. If you look at the US, they plunged yesterday. 239 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 12: So the Dow is that point five percent forty two 240 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 12: five to two five p hundred five hundred pat percent 241 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 12: five nine zero one.

But we'll talk about 347 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 2: it in the tech Right now, it's twenty three away 348 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 2: from seven. 349 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 3: Now. 350 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 2: Ashburton is finally getting itself a second bridge to council. 351 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 2: There has been campaigning for a bridge a second one 352 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 2: for nearly two decades, and Business Canterbury chief executively Anne 353 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 2: Watson is with us now, Hailey, Anne, how you this? 354 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 20: Now? 355 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 2: This is good news. I mean for any place getting 356 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 2: a second of anything. This is fantastic news, isn't it? 357 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 3: Oh? 358 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 21: Absolutely, And as you've said, you know, this has been 359 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 21: a very long awaited second bridge. So getting that confirmation 360 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 21: you stead of the government funding has been really welcomed 361 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 21: right across not only the local Ashburton business community, I'm sure, 362 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 21: but right across Canbury and in affect the South Island 363 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 21: because it's a really important piece of infrastructure. 364 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 11: Yeah. 365 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 2: And for an important piece of infrastructure, how many times 366 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 2: has it been washed away lately? 367 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 22: Oh? 368 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 21: Well, certainly at least two or three times that I 369 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 21: know of, the latest back in twenty twenty three. And 370 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 21: the effect that that has on, as I say, not 371 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 21: only to South Island sorry the Ashburton, but the whole 372 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 21: of the South Island is pretty significant. So it is 373 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 21: a bit of a lifeline to get not only people 374 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 21: in and out of Ashburton, but of course also freight 375 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 21: and there's a significant volume of freight that travels across 376 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 21: that bridge every day heading up to both Christian Chiport 377 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 21: and the Littleton Port and so it has a significant 378 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 21: impact right across the whole business community when it is 379 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 21: you know unavailable. 380 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, when bridge number one goes down and the freight 381 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:06,679 Speaker 2: can't get across, what's the alternative? 382 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 21: So there is another bridge, but it's about twenty seven 383 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 21: kilometers away, So of course you know that's a significant 384 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 21: diversion and you know that costs money, it cost time, 385 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 21: and it's just a real inconvenience. But you know, even 386 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 21: you know, if you're traveling through Ashbooton, you know you 387 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:25,639 Speaker 21: can be stuck waiting to get across that bridge for 388 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 21: sort of anywhere between you know, sort of half an 389 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 21: hour to an hour in peak time. And you know, 390 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,400 Speaker 21: when you think about that from a business perspective, if 391 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 21: you've got you know, freight being moved you know daily, 392 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 21: you know that is a significant extra cost and delay 393 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:42,919 Speaker 21: to move freight across that sort of main state highway. 394 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 21: So yeah, this is a really significant announcement and you know, 395 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 21: take my head off to the local leaders the likes 396 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 21: of you know meor Neil Brown, you know, who has 397 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 21: been campaigning, as you say, for a couple of decades 398 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 21: to get this piece of infrastructure underway, so it's really 399 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,639 Speaker 21: great to see the Government of actually finally made that 400 00:17:59,640 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 21: come up. 401 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:00,920 Speaker 3: Lee. 402 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 2: And by the way, while i've got you that GDP 403 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 2: figure out yesterday, did that surprise. 404 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 21: You, Yeah, it was pretty disappointing. You know, we've certainly 405 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:14,159 Speaker 21: seen some challenges out there for many sectors. But what 406 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 21: it did surprise me, I guess is we've just recently 407 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 21: also done our own quarterly business survey and it was 408 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 21: in contrast to that because actually what we've seen as 409 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,640 Speaker 21: record high levels of optimism heading into twenty twenty five, 410 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 21: So it was a bit concerning. But I think, you know, 411 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,679 Speaker 21: we are certainly seeing some real strong signals from cannery 412 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 21: businesses about the future, not only in terms of the economy, 413 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 21: but also in terms of their own performance and starting 414 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:44,239 Speaker 21: to just see a bit more commitment and confidence in 415 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 21: investing in new staff, new plant and equipment. It's not 416 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 21: coming up quite as fast as what we would like, 417 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 21: so yeah, we were a little concerned to see that, 418 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 21: but you know, Canary business seemed to be bucking the 419 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,920 Speaker 21: trend a little bit, so let's hope that that continues. 420 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 22: Well. 421 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 2: You are doing very well as a region, Lely and 422 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 2: thanks very much, really appreciate the green shoots and news there. 423 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 2: That's Leanne Watson, Business Canterbury Chief Executive. You're so on this, 424 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,880 Speaker 2: okayse So yesterday the number I mean, Jesus, well, we're 425 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 2: expecting what zero point four percent was kind of or 426 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 2: zero point two percent depends on where you sat, but 427 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 2: it was definitely towards the zero, not towards the one. 428 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 2: So when it came in at Won that was something 429 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:21,680 Speaker 2: of a shock. But what was also equally a shot 430 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 2: was the revision of the Q two data, which we 431 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 2: were told was oh well, yeah, had gone back with 432 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 2: zero point two percent. Suddenly it's one point one percent. 433 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 2: What's going on in Stats New Zealand because yesterday I 434 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,400 Speaker 2: was just telling you Stats New Zealand were like, ah, yeah, 435 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 2: Wellington lost twenty thousand workers. Yeah oopsto sorry two two 436 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,119 Speaker 2: thousand yeah sorry, slight, slight revision in the order of 437 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 2: magnitude of ten times. And then they do basically the 438 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,880 Speaker 2: same thing with the GDP data, where they're like, it's 439 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 2: just a little decline, no, but lord, it's a massive decline. 440 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,920 Speaker 2: How what's going on? Stats? Come on guys anyway, listen 441 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,159 Speaker 2: Westpac Senior economist Michael Gordon's going to be with us 442 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 2: after seven o'clock. He'll talk us through the data just 443 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 2: how bad it is and fingers crossed out. We threw 444 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 2: the worst of it nineteen away from. 445 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:07,959 Speaker 1: Seven The Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, 446 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 1: Power It by News Talks. 447 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 2: Be Hey on the drones. By the way, here's a 448 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 2: quick update for you. The FAA, which they are the 449 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,119 Speaker 2: guys in the States to control the skies. Basically, the 450 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 2: FAA has banned any drones from flying over parts of 451 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 2: certain areas of New Jersey for a full month. They 452 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 2: say there will be some exceptions. Obviously they will hand 453 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 2: them out for special security reasons and stuff like that. 454 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,679 Speaker 2: But if they see drones up there, they are reserving 455 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 2: the right to use deadly force against them if they 456 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 2: consider that they oppose an imminent security threat. Now what 457 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 2: this means is if Biden at l are all right, 458 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 2: there's just there are some legit drones up there, and 459 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,640 Speaker 2: everybody else is just copycatting and making the situation worse. 460 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:47,239 Speaker 2: It should clear it up with the ban. 461 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 13: How do you use deadly force against something that's not alive. 462 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 3: I don't know. 463 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:53,479 Speaker 2: It's a really good question. What it means is that 464 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 2: thing is coming down. They're going to actually shoot it down. 465 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 2: This that's the best that you could possibly assume from that. Anyway, 466 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:00,159 Speaker 2: We'll see if it clears it up or not. 467 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 17: It's called it to seven International Correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance. 468 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: Peace of mind for New Zealand business. 469 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 2: Richard Arnold out of the US is with us right now, Richard. 470 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,880 Speaker 23: Hello, good morning, Christmas approaching right yep? 471 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:14,360 Speaker 2: And a shutdown? 472 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 3: Learning yeah? 473 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 23: Will there be a shutdown over the holidays with many 474 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 23: government workers getting no money, no pay, maybe a delay 475 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 23: in pensions for seniors and vets, and again no cash 476 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 23: for Christmas. That is entirely possible because of Elon Musk, 477 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:32,440 Speaker 23: the world's richest man, has torpedoed a Republican backfunding deal. 478 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:36,120 Speaker 23: So now they're scrambling at the minute to fix this 479 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 23: thing by deadline time, which is tomorrow night, folks. So 480 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 23: far they do not have the by partisan vote numbers 481 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,159 Speaker 23: to pass another Elon Musk approved spending plan by the 482 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,959 Speaker 23: time of that deadline. So happy Christmas, app happy end 483 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 23: of yew holidays. Elon Musk, by the way, put four 484 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 23: hundred and ninety million dollars New Zealand into the Trump 485 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 23: election campaign. Since Trump one, Elon has gained a financial windfall. 486 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,160 Speaker 23: His total wealth, they say, a shot up by three 487 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 23: hundred and one billion dollars New Zealand to a grand 488 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 23: total of eight hundred and sixty billion. Also, Elon now 489 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 23: looks to have taken residence at Marra Lago, Trump's Florida estate. 490 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 23: He's there most of the times that would have hanging 491 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:16,199 Speaker 23: around now. Elon was not elected to anything. He's just 492 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 23: a businessman who gets most of his money from government contracts, 493 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 23: especially with SpaceX. But he says the spending bill should 494 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 23: not include money for cleaning up after natural disasters hurricanes, fires, flights, tornadoes. 495 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 23: Pecked with those folks. And he's posted more than one 496 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,119 Speaker 23: hundred tweets in the last twenty four hours or exites 497 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,480 Speaker 23: or whatever and on his social media site that he 498 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 23: owns saying the government spending bill should be quashed. In 499 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 23: one he says, quote shutting down the government is infinitely 500 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 23: better than passing a horrible bill. Well thanks, wy in 501 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 23: effect the almost trillionaire. The way this played out has 502 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 23: Democrats and some Republicans calling Musks the president or shadow 503 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 23: president it was Musk who first delayed the government's spending 504 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,439 Speaker 23: beat deal. Only after that did Trump sign on with 505 00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:59,880 Speaker 23: his comments. So who's calling the shots. He's running the show, 506 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 23: asked former Republican Congressman Adam Kinsingham. 507 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 15: President Musk this morning made it clear with all his 508 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:09,159 Speaker 15: vast government experience, which is basically he became rich on 509 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 15: the federal government, that he doesn't want Republicans to pass this, 510 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,439 Speaker 15: and seemingly Vice President Trump kind of backed him up 511 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 15: then at that point. And what it says about the 512 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 15: politics is this is going to be a messy four years. 513 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 23: No Democrat Primula jaypoul says, it is clear who's in charge, 514 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:28,439 Speaker 23: and she said, yes, you ain't Trump. 515 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:32,159 Speaker 24: It will be their fault that Americans don't get disaster relief, 516 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 24: that Americans don't get their Social Security checks. That is 517 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 24: on the Republicans. Mike Johnson negotiated a deal with Leader 518 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 24: Jeffries and Chuck Schumer and Joe Biden, and now he's 519 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 24: reniking on the deal because the shadow President Elon Musk 520 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 24: said that we shouldn't be doing this deal. 521 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 20: So this is on them. 522 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 23: Well, right now, it looks like the only way for 523 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,119 Speaker 23: the government shutdown to be averted is with Democratic Party 524 00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:00,159 Speaker 23: votes in the House, will the dam saying Republicans the 525 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,680 Speaker 23: House Speaker Johnson says the leader of the House Democrats, 526 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 23: the Keing Jeffreys. 527 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:12,120 Speaker 19: House Republicans will now own any harm that is visited 528 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 19: upon the American people that results from a government shutdown. 529 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 23: All this puts the Speaker, by Johnson's third in line 530 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 23: to the presidency by the way, in danger. Will he 531 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 23: survive or will the Republican civil wars take down yet 532 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 23: another speaker. That speaker, one of the most senior officials 533 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:33,399 Speaker 23: in the government here, was pleading with Musk and his offsider, 534 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 23: failed presidential contender Viva co Romaswami until late last night 535 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 23: to let the spending deal go through. 536 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 25: Elin and Vivek and I are on a text chain 537 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,199 Speaker 25: together and I was explaining to them the background of this. 538 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 6: Remember, guys, we still have just a razor thin margin 539 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 6: of Republicans. 540 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 23: Really, the elected speaker begging rich outsiders to let him 541 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 23: keep the government running. Meantime, Trump and now has jumped 542 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 23: on board in support of Elon Musk, while also calling 543 00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:59,399 Speaker 23: for the amount of the debt the US can have 544 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 23: the so called its ceiling to be increased, so it 545 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 23: doesn't have to be done on his watch. So on 546 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,360 Speaker 23: one hand they're calling for spending cuts, on the other 547 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 23: demanding a spending cap increase. Also they can blame each 548 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 23: other for the living financial woes and all the while 549 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 23: who suffers, well, of course it's yeah, government workers, vets, 550 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:18,920 Speaker 23: seniors and the poor. 551 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 2: Ah yeah, brilliant stuff.

The 554 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 2: extent of the news reporting on the drone situation in 555 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 2: the East coast of the United States today, it is today, 556 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 2: it is collectively, we've been keeping you updated on it, 557 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 2: and obviously it goes without saying the reason that we're 558 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 2: using deadly force on a drone is because you don't 559 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 2: know there might be something in there that needs to 560 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 2: be killed, at which point we start playing some X 561 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:52,440 Speaker 2: files music, you know what I mean. Birkenstocks Now, Birkenstock 562 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 2: has just finished its first full year as a public company, 563 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 2: and it is going absolutely gangbusters at the moment. It's 564 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 2: beat market expectations and fourth quarter with the sales, the 565 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 2: shares are up seven percent as a result. It's managed. 566 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 2: What's amazing about it is, given the state of everything, 567 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 2: it's managed to do this without doing the pre Christmas discounting. 568 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:12,479 Speaker 2: You're actually paying more right now for the products than 569 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 2: you were maybe I don't know, a year ago or something, 570 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,679 Speaker 2: because the average selling prices this year are up eight percent. 571 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 2: And the thing that is causing the Birkenstock to do 572 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 2: really well at the moment is the clog. Apparently the 573 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,160 Speaker 2: clog is now making up about a third of its business. 574 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 2: And if I can recommend anything to you, right it's 575 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:32,919 Speaker 2: not the right season for the clog right now, but 576 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 2: you're going to wear your clog next winter. So if 577 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 2: you're thinking, oh, what can I get the woman in 578 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 2: my life who I love deeply and I don't know 579 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 2: what to get her a pair of Birkenstock's clogs.

Anyway, listen. 589 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 2: Free speech thought, this was fascinating thought. A bunch of 590 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 2: universities actually started kind of getting themselves in line on 591 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:17,880 Speaker 2: the free speech and figuring out, but obviously not enough, 592 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 2: so the government's decided they're going to pass a law 593 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 2: on it. So I have a chat about this New 594 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 2: Zealand initiatives.

Biggest 607 00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:00,399 Speaker 2: spender last year, two point sixty seven million dollars was 608 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 2: paid out for medical and evacuation claims, with the biggest 609 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 2: individual bill being for four hundred and sixty thousand dollars. 610 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 2: That's for one person. No guesses needed for what country 611 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 2: that person was in at the time. There were also 612 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 2: individual activity bills, like a nineteen thousand dollar medical claim 613 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 2: for a skiing accident. They paid out one million in 614 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 2: lost baggage and Christmas gift claims also included everything from 615 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 2: stolen bags to smash gifts in check and luggage.

Bari 618 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 2: was a major destination for claims. Most of them were medical. 619 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 2: Many people needed medical assistance because of the infamous barley belly. 620 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 2: So where are we going this summer? That has caused 621 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 2: people to get the most insurance for Ossie number one destination, 622 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 2: followed by the US and also by Japan.

But anyways, it goes gone down to the 629 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 2: Parliamentary Cafe for his late afternoon sugarhead and he sees 630 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 2: they've changed the gingerbread men into gingerbread people to be 631 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 2: gender neutral. And as if that's not bad enough that 632 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 2: they've been called gingerbread people, they're also vegan, and as 633 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 2: that's not bad enough, they also cost three dollars fifty 634 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 2: each in Aussie dollars, so what's that's like seven hundred 635 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 2: million New Zealand dollars. You could buy six of them 636 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 2: for twenty eight dollars for a bargain. They're not big enough, 637 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 2: by the way to be three dollar fifty ones. Anyway, 638 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 2: he's so livid. He said, all this stuff's been forced 639 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 2: on me. Just leave it. And he's flipped out and 640 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 2: he said, the more you do this, the more you 641 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 2: piss people off, and the more you encourage a Trump 642 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:41,479 Speaker 2: type snapback.

Do you think than 675 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 2: the forecasts? 676 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 26: It's never one thing that drives it. I think one 677 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,720 Speaker 26: thing that did stand out was a little more recognition 678 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 26: of the cutbacks in the public sector, which weren't initially 679 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 26: being fully captured the figures we were looking at three 680 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 26: months ago. 681 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 2: This does this, to some extent, explain what we were 682 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 2: hearing from people out there who were saying, this is 683 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 2: really tough, it's the worst thing we've seen in forty years, 684 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 2: and these figures back it up. 685 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 27: Yeah. 686 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 26: I think it's certainly showing that the kind of grind 687 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 26: that we've had really through this year is now showing 688 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 26: up a bit more fully than that the GDP numbers 689 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:44,680 Speaker 26: that we saw three months ago. I tend to think 690 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 26: because GDP can be revised a lot, I tend to say, 691 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 26: if you want to know what's going on in the 692 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 26: economy right now, Probably best to look at the jobs 693 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 26: numbers because they're not vulnerable to the same kind of issues, 694 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 26: and they had been telling a similar story. We did 695 00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 26: see quite a cutback in jobs through the middle part 696 00:31:59,920 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 26: of this year, especially. They look to have stabilized a 697 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 26: bit more recently, and we're also seeing things like business confidence, 698 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 26: consumer confidence surveys. People are feeling a little bit more upbeat. 699 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 2: Now, how do we explain stats getting the second quarter 700 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 2: figures so badly wrong? Going originally saying it was negative 701 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 2: zero point two and now saying it's negative one point one. 702 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 26: It's a terribly boring explanation. I'm afraid there's a lot 703 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 26: of it came through changes in the way that they 704 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 26: adjust for seasonality in the numbers, So it's really about 705 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 26: it doesn't change the overall growth rate, it kind of 706 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 26: changes when they think the growth occurred within the year. 707 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 26: I'm not entirely happy with what they've done with it, 708 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 26: to be honest. I think it might be revised again 709 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 26: in the future, up or down. I think probably that 710 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 26: court will go up, others will go down. 711 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 2: Okay, Now, look when you look at it broken down 712 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 2: by sector, it feels like some of the stuff that's 713 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 2: happened in Q three or stuff we couldn't have dodged, 714 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 2: like the decline in electricity and gas, and we've got 715 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 2: no control over that, and I guess some of the 716 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 2: decline and manufacturing is related to that. Or am I 717 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:04,239 Speaker 2: being a little too generous here? 718 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 3: Now? 719 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 26: There's always one off things in these numbers that you 720 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 26: sort of look through and as a full cast or 721 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 26: I'm sort of going, well, I know that the hydro 722 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 26: lakes are full now, so I don't think we'll have 723 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 26: the same issues with electricity, but it always happens. I 724 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 26: think if you move through you can see things like 725 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 26: we've seen sectors like construction, manufacturing, retail. You know, they've 726 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 26: kind of been in decline for a while and they're 727 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 26: quite cyclical, quite interest rate sensitive sectors. So it was 728 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 26: really telling a story of we had high interest rates 729 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 26: for the last year or so. 730 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, Michael, thanks, it's really good to talk to you. 731 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:38,560 Speaker 2: That's Michael Gordon, Westpac senior Economists. Just to give you 732 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 2: some international comparison to understand how badly we're doing. We 733 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,719 Speaker 2: went backwards in Q three one percent, right, negative one, 734 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 2: Australia up zero point three, Canada up zero point three, 735 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 2: China up zero point nine, Japan up zero point three, 736 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:59,440 Speaker 2: Britain up zero point one, United States up zero point seven, 737 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 2: coming up eleven past seven, Heather do for clan prison 738 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 2: of courses? What does this say about the Reserve Bank 739 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,720 Speaker 2: who deliberately engineered the recession that we find ourselves in? 740 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:10,520 Speaker 2: Former Reserve Bank economist Michael Radella's with us. Hey, Michael, 741 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 2: do you think the Reserve Bank has made a mistake 742 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,279 Speaker 2: sending us to a three month summer break with an 743 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 2: ocr setting this high above neutral? 744 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 27: I mean the three months summer break as a bad 745 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:26,239 Speaker 27: core always has been on their part. The data do 746 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:29,320 Speaker 27: come through and they need to be able to respond. 747 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 27: The government tells us that, you know, they can have 748 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:34,879 Speaker 27: emergency meetings if they need to, but you know it's 749 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 27: always going to be a very high threshold for that, 750 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 27: so they should have changed that calendar. The bigger question 751 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 27: still is the held monetary policy too tight for too long? 752 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:44,799 Speaker 27: You know, it's only six months ago they were talking 753 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 27: about raising rates further. That was just clearly out to lunch. 754 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 2: Have we met the threshold for them coming back during 755 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 2: the break do you think? 756 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 3: No? 757 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,799 Speaker 27: I don't think so I'd be really surprised. You they'll 758 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,959 Speaker 27: be looking outwards the CPI coming out in the second 759 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,880 Speaker 27: half of January, and they wouldn't want to do anything 760 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 27: before that. Months that's come out, they have to work 761 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,279 Speaker 27: the numbers through their forecast, and then they'll go, it's 762 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:09,279 Speaker 27: only three weeks until I'm next, And so what do. 763 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 2: You reckon seventy five basis points in February? 764 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 27: Oh, I think that's still a big call. I think 765 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 27: you know, they were talking pretty confidently at fifty points 766 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 27: in February at last the NPS. I think that's still 767 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:25,279 Speaker 27: the most likely move. What's more likely is that we 768 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 27: see a continued succession of cuts during next year. You know, 769 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,760 Speaker 27: he's hit a number of economists going for fifty points 770 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 27: in February, and then things might start to tail off 771 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:38,320 Speaker 27: quite rapidly. I suspect what we'll see if inflation continuing 772 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 27: to fall away faster, and they'll need to be cutting 773 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 27: rates towards three or maybe even under three by the 774 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:44,359 Speaker 27: remember of the next year. 775 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:46,319 Speaker 2: What do you reckon Adrian or thought when he saw 776 00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,399 Speaker 2: that number yesterday? Do you reckon that was what he wanted? 777 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:50,400 Speaker 2: Or may have realized that he overcooked everything. 778 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:55,279 Speaker 27: I'm sure it wasn't what he wanted his focus, and rightly, 779 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 27: central banks always focused on the inflation numbers. Inflation has 780 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 27: been coming down a bit faster, and they appreciate it, 781 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:03,480 Speaker 27: but they had already got that in the bag. They'll 782 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,719 Speaker 27: look at that and go, oh, my goodness, you know 783 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:08,200 Speaker 27: what's happened here. Some of that, of course, is about 784 00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 27: those revisions from statistics. New Zealand Reserve Bank can't control that. 785 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 27: But some of it, standing back still, is that we 786 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 27: had a really big inflation probably a couple of years ago, 787 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:18,880 Speaker 27: and it was always like here that it was going 788 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:21,239 Speaker 27: to need something pretty nasty to get that down. In 789 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:24,960 Speaker 27: some ways, it's puzzling that other countries haven't needed something 790 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 27: quite so bad yet. But there are still challenges there 791 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,560 Speaker 27: in the US, for example, where they're saying, look, you know, 792 00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:32,879 Speaker 27: maybe inflation hadn't come down as far as we would 793 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 27: have liked. 794 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:35,359 Speaker 2: Michael's good to talk to you. Thank you, Michael Riddell, 795 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 2: Former Reserve Bank economist heller Do for see Ellen Luigi Mangioni, 796 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 2: who is the shooter in the healthcare CEO situation. He's 797 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 2: just arrived in New York. Geez. They've moved fast on 798 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:49,759 Speaker 2: the seven day, just arrived in New York because he 799 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:51,480 Speaker 2: was fighting the extradition order. Didn't want to have to 800 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 2: go to New York to face his charges, and gave 801 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:54,799 Speaker 2: up on that. This morning, they flew him out pretty 802 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,160 Speaker 2: much immediately flew him apparently because they didn't want to 803 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,400 Speaker 2: drive them because they didn't want to know Ja Simpson's 804 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 2: situation all over again. So he's landed just in the 805 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:04,799 Speaker 2: last few minutes, and he's had to do the perp 806 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 2: walk across the tarmac. And I'll tell you what there are. 807 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:13,040 Speaker 2: Hey is vastly outnumbered by agents there. I reckon there 808 00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 2: would be easily two dozen agents around him. He's iness 809 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 2: of an orange suit and they are all around them 810 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,839 Speaker 2: with their guns and their helmets, and it's quite full 811 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 2: on the way that they're dealing with this one. Anyway, 812 00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:25,680 Speaker 2: it's made for quite the spectacle in a story that is, well, 813 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,399 Speaker 2: I suppose, in a weird where quite spectacular. Seventeen at 814 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:29,240 Speaker 2: fourteen past. 815 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 1: Seven, the Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio 816 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 1: powered by News Talks. 817 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,200 Speaker 2: That'd be either if the worst recession in nearly forty 818 00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:40,839 Speaker 2: years doesn't meet the Reserve Bank threshold for an emergency meeting. 819 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 2: What does very good question seventeen past seven. Now, the 820 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:45,879 Speaker 2: government's decided to give UNIS a bit of a hand 821 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 2: sorting out their free speech guidelines. All will be passed 822 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 2: forcing the UNIS to adopt a freedom of speech statement 823 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,160 Speaker 2: and then also banning them from taking any positions on 824 00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:57,480 Speaker 2: issues unrelated to their core functions, like the war and Gaza, 825 00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,400 Speaker 2: for example, with US now as former Victoria Universe and 826 00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:03,560 Speaker 2: New Zealand Initiative, Senior Fellow Michael Johnston, Heymichael. 827 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 28: Good morning. 828 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,080 Speaker 2: Aren't they already legally supposed to do this because of 829 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 2: the Education Act and the Bill of Rights? 830 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:10,120 Speaker 11: Yes, they are. 831 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 28: The Education and Training Act certainly makes very clear their 832 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 28: obligations to provide a venue for academics and students to 833 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 28: freely discuss ideas and challenge controversial ideas and so on, 834 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:28,719 Speaker 28: and the Human Rights Act guarantees freedom of speech. The 835 00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 28: problem is that if they don't uphold those obligations, then 836 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 28: academics and students have very little recourse. They can go 837 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,319 Speaker 28: to court or perhaps the Human Rights Tribunal, but those 838 00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:43,360 Speaker 28: time consuming exercises and onerous and in the case of 839 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 28: the courts, expensive, so they need. 840 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 27: A bit of help. 841 00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 2: So how does this law change it? Does it give 842 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:49,680 Speaker 2: them a course? 843 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:53,800 Speaker 28: Well, one of the stipulations is that there needs to 844 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 28: be a robust complaints procedure, so yes, it really would 845 00:38:58,080 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 28: help with that. 846 00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:03,319 Speaker 2: Do you feel about this, I mean, in an ideal world, 847 00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:04,759 Speaker 2: you want them to sort of get to the point 848 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,360 Speaker 2: where they realize how important free speeches of their own ecotomy. 849 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 28: Well, an ideal world for sure, and in fact, in 850 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,280 Speaker 28: the past it's been a lot better. I've been around 851 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 28: university is a very long time. My father was an 852 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,760 Speaker 28: academic and I remember an environment that was very different 853 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:24,359 Speaker 28: to the current one. So the culture is the root 854 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 28: problem in universities, and in particular the culture in the 855 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 28: university management. 856 00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 2: Now, the problem is if you're forcing it on them 857 00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 2: rather than them voluntarily and through their own intelligence realizing 858 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,279 Speaker 2: how important free speeches, then aren't they just going to 859 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:39,840 Speaker 2: find other ways to get around it and do what 860 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:41,880 Speaker 2: they want anyway, like citing health and safety. 861 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 28: Well there's a risk of that for sure, and this 862 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:48,920 Speaker 28: is not a silver bullet to solve the cultural problem, 863 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:53,560 Speaker 28: but I do think that it's necessary and hopefully it 864 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:57,160 Speaker 28: will shake them up enough to instigate a culture change. 865 00:39:57,239 --> 00:39:59,799 Speaker 28: Now that will take time. The cultures don't change over 866 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:03,759 Speaker 28: the all right, And certainly I would say that the 867 00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:10,400 Speaker 28: problems on campuses are in part a result of a 868 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:16,320 Speaker 28: political bias pretty strongly to the left, and there's a 869 00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 28: lack of viewpoint diversity amongst staff as a result of that. 870 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 28: That's the sort of thing that requires quite a long 871 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:28,719 Speaker 28: process to change. But in the immediate term, I do 872 00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:34,120 Speaker 28: think that universities need some help to recognize their existing obligations. 873 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:35,719 Speaker 3: As you've said, it. 874 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,360 Speaker 2: Really is like putting training wheels on the Michael, Thank you, 875 00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 2: Michael Johnston, former Victoria University dean and Initiative New Zealand 876 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:45,560 Speaker 2: Initiative senior fellow. By the way, that judge who verbally 877 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:50,920 Speaker 2: allegedly verbally attacked, well, she did admit it. She admitted 878 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 2: that she was rude in the bit out of hand, right, 879 00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:54,880 Speaker 2: So anyway, the judge was a bit rude to Winston 880 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:58,080 Speaker 2: Peters after the Christmas party is now under investigation by 881 00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 2: the Judicial Conduct Commission. Apparent the commission has just done 882 00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:03,360 Speaker 2: this off his own accord. He read what had happened, 883 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:05,600 Speaker 2: he read some media commentary on it, decided and our 884 00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:07,480 Speaker 2: best to have a look at this then, so a 885 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:11,720 Speaker 2: preliminary examination is now underway. And even if he hadn't 886 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,160 Speaker 2: reached this position of his own accord, it sounds like 887 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:15,680 Speaker 2: he might have got there anyway because due to the 888 00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 2: Collins Attorney General Center letter, and there was also a 889 00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:19,920 Speaker 2: complaint from a member of the public. So there you go. 890 00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 2: That's being sorted out right now here. The Luxon is 891 00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:24,840 Speaker 2: not one of my favorite people, but I have to 892 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,240 Speaker 2: say I admire and salute his stance on not attending 893 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,960 Speaker 2: White Tounguy Day. Let's deal with us next seven to twenty. 894 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:35,880 Speaker 1: One, the mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio 895 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: powered by News Talks. 896 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:41,120 Speaker 2: That'd be Health New Zealand have been set those targets. 897 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 2: They've missed a couple of them. They're doing okay on 898 00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:45,000 Speaker 2: a couple of them. We'll talk to the chief executive, 899 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 2: Marji Upper after half past seven now seven to twenty three. 900 00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:50,239 Speaker 2: I think on the White Tonguey Day thing, I think 901 00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 2: Chris Luxen's made the right call not going to White 902 00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 2: Tongy next year. I mean, I think he's going to 903 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,240 Speaker 2: copy it from the press gallery for being a woss. 904 00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:58,879 Speaker 2: But the rest of us have probably been around long 905 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 2: enough to see the logic in this one. We know 906 00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 2: by now White Tounguy is volatile and unpredictable at the 907 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:05,880 Speaker 2: best of times. I mean, you can Coppadildo in the 908 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:09,600 Speaker 2: face for doing absolutely nothing. So imagine how intense it's 909 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:12,000 Speaker 2: going to be next year with the Treaty Principal's build 910 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:14,520 Speaker 2: debate and full swing in the Select Committee process underway 911 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 2: already and everything going on already. Willie Jackson's warned the 912 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:19,960 Speaker 2: Prime Minister about his safety if he goes up there. 913 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,880 Speaker 2: Will He said, Apparently Mari are angry and you just 914 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:28,680 Speaker 2: never know. Now, it's hardly quite apart from what WILLI 915 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:30,879 Speaker 2: said here, it's hardly as if Chris Luxon is being 916 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:33,759 Speaker 2: made to feel like he is welcome to attend. He's 917 00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:36,360 Speaker 2: apparently being told he's not allowed. He is allowed to 918 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:38,600 Speaker 2: come on the sixth, which is why Tangy Dad, but 919 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:41,280 Speaker 2: then he's not allowed to come on the fourth because 920 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:43,440 Speaker 2: he's not welcome at the big meeting that the National 921 00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:46,040 Speaker 2: Ee Chairs Forum hosts every year where everybody else is 922 00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:48,240 Speaker 2: going to be. He's had a letter from the Hekoy 923 00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:50,799 Speaker 2: organizers telling him he's not welcome at White Toungy at all. 924 00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 2: He loses nothing by giving this event Tomis next year. 925 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:55,840 Speaker 2: I doubt very much he's going to win votes if 926 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 2: he ends up going. He could actually instead lose votes 927 00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:00,319 Speaker 2: by going and standing there like a pin art are 928 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:02,480 Speaker 2: taking a verbal bashing over a bill that's actually not 929 00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 2: his Politically, he's smart to put some space between himself 930 00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:09,920 Speaker 2: and that bill. He is better off leaving the defending 931 00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:12,440 Speaker 2: of that bill to the guy who's actually responsible for it, 932 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 2: who's David Seymour, who says he is actually going up 933 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 2: so Lux and I think can actually say he's done enough. 934 00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:19,279 Speaker 2: He's been there two years in a row a ready, 935 00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:22,399 Speaker 2: He's shown respect, he's defended his corner. He's not being 936 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:24,920 Speaker 2: made to feel welcome, he has been threatened by Willie Jackson. 937 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:28,000 Speaker 2: Right minded people I think absolutely will understand why he 938 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:30,360 Speaker 2: may not want to go, and frankly why he shouldn't 939 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 2: have to go. 940 00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:32,399 Speaker 3: Heather duplusy Ellen. 941 00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:35,759 Speaker 2: I don't know if you noticed this, but we've just 942 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:40,400 Speaker 2: had three blokes on the program, Michael, Michael and Michael So. 943 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:43,840 Speaker 2: We had Michael Gordon talking about GDP. We had Michael 944 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,839 Speaker 2: Riddell talking about the OCRO med Michael Johnston talking about 945 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,239 Speaker 2: free speech. Now, do you know what we've missed an 946 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:51,920 Speaker 2: opportunity because if we would have jackpotted, if we had 947 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,160 Speaker 2: Michael Hoskins sitting here, and we could have had four 948 00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:57,319 Speaker 2: Michaels all in a row having chats to it, isn't 949 00:43:57,360 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 2: that weird? 950 00:43:57,880 --> 00:43:59,719 Speaker 13: Not to mention the fact that the next person we're 951 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 13: talking isn't called Michael either. That's annoying. 952 00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 2: Margie is close enough, though, we can make her an 953 00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:06,160 Speaker 2: honorary Michael. It's a little bit like. 954 00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 13: You know, when you go I would have accepted a Mikayla. 955 00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:11,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, next three year. It's a bit like you know, 956 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,960 Speaker 2: when you go to Mexico and everybody's called Jose, or 957 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:17,800 Speaker 2: if you go to a Middle Eastern country, everybody's called Mohammad. 958 00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:20,719 Speaker 2: You come to New Zealand everybody's called Michael. So I 959 00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:22,759 Speaker 2: don't know if you're having a baby next year or 960 00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:24,680 Speaker 2: in the remaining days of this year and you're you're 961 00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:26,360 Speaker 2: short on names. I mean, I think we've sorted it 962 00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:28,919 Speaker 2: out for you. In fact, I'm having a baby. In fact, 963 00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,760 Speaker 2: I'm having a baby, and I should call her Michael, 964 00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:34,080 Speaker 2: and that wouldn't be weird. I've heard of people calling 965 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:37,160 Speaker 2: baby girls Michael before. How was this just quickly for 966 00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:40,319 Speaker 2: serendipity in solving a crib and get a load of this? Okay, 967 00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:42,640 Speaker 2: Back in November last year, there was a guy who 968 00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,800 Speaker 2: was living in Spain who was reported missing by a relative. 969 00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:47,640 Speaker 2: The relative got a little bit suspicious because out of 970 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:49,759 Speaker 2: the blue, the guy in Spain started texting him and 971 00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:51,880 Speaker 2: sending weird messages from the phone saying, Oh, I've met 972 00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 2: a new girlfriend. I'm going to leave Spain, I'm getting 973 00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:55,440 Speaker 2: rid of the phone, blah blah blah. And the relative 974 00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 2: was like, this is not like this, this is not 975 00:44:57,239 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 2: like this person. So reported it to the coppers investigating, 976 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,719 Speaker 2: but they do nothing for months. Then last month, November, 977 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:07,680 Speaker 2: a year later, the cops arrest the guy's actual girlfriend 978 00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:12,520 Speaker 2: and the girlfriend's new boyfriend because of Google Images. Because 979 00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:15,439 Speaker 2: what happened is in October this year, one month before 980 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:19,000 Speaker 2: the arrest, the Google Images car drives down this random 981 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:21,560 Speaker 2: little street in a tiny town of only about fifty 982 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 2: six people in Spain, snaps a picture of a red 983 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,040 Speaker 2: car on the side of the road and there's a 984 00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:29,600 Speaker 2: guy hunched over the boot of the red car with 985 00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:33,040 Speaker 2: a white sack putting into it, which is the body, 986 00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:36,320 Speaker 2: So Google drives by and literally takes a picture of 987 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:37,640 Speaker 2: the guy trying to get rid of the body. They 988 00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:40,360 Speaker 2: find the body the tulso in a nearby Hamlets cemetery. 989 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:41,200 Speaker 2: How weird is that? 990 00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:42,160 Speaker 8: You go? 991 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:43,759 Speaker 16: What is news's next? 992 00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:52,040 Speaker 1: Demanding the answers from the decision makers? Can then Duplessy 993 00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:55,560 Speaker 1: Allen on the my casking breakfast with Bailey's real Estate, 994 00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:59,680 Speaker 1: your local experts across residential, commercial and rural news talks 995 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:00,840 Speaker 1: head Hey on. 996 00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:03,439 Speaker 2: That amazing news about Liam Lawson finally getting the seat 997 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:05,160 Speaker 2: for next year in the F one. We're gonna have 998 00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:06,759 Speaker 2: a chat to Bob McMurray about it before the end 999 00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:09,080 Speaker 2: of this hour. Hither the Prime Minister should man up 1000 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:10,880 Speaker 2: and go and defend his actions up at White Tonguey. 1001 00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:12,839 Speaker 2: But he will do what cowards do and just run 1002 00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 2: and hide. Shameful man, Just a coward, Jamie. Actually it's 1003 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:18,319 Speaker 2: not his actions though, as it's David Seymour's and he's 1004 00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 2: going up to defend it. So what's the problem. Twenty 1005 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:24,920 Speaker 2: three away from eight Love howth New Zealand has released 1006 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,680 Speaker 2: the first of its quarterly performance reports. It's winning with 1007 00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 2: two of the measures. It's gone backwards on to Health 1008 00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:34,480 Speaker 2: New Zealand's chief executive is Marjorie Upper Morning, Marjie, So, okay, 1009 00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:36,960 Speaker 2: so you're winning with the shorter days in emergency departments, 1010 00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:39,920 Speaker 2: you're winning with the shorter wait times for elective elective treatment. 1011 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:42,560 Speaker 2: What's going on with the specialist appointment waiting time blowing 1012 00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:43,239 Speaker 2: out like it has? 1013 00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:47,560 Speaker 16: Well, that's a real challenge because we have, of course, 1014 00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 16: it's a bit like a tank more people coming in 1015 00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:55,320 Speaker 16: or being referred into specialist assessments than people being referred 1016 00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:57,560 Speaker 16: and then moved on to either treatment or back to 1017 00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:00,719 Speaker 16: primary care. So that is a volume challenge that we 1018 00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:02,080 Speaker 16: do need to try. 1019 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 27: To get on top of. 1020 00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:05,040 Speaker 2: Do you think it's even worse than that looks here, 1021 00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:07,640 Speaker 2: because we've heard that some specialists not even adding people 1022 00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:11,200 Speaker 2: to the waiting list because it's already so Choker, Well. 1023 00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:13,880 Speaker 16: That's good that maybe I'm true, because we are looking 1024 00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:19,840 Speaker 16: into the GP referrals that are declined because our services 1025 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:22,200 Speaker 16: believe they don't have the capacity, and it's really important 1026 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:25,320 Speaker 16: that we do accept patients who meet the clinical criteria 1027 00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:28,080 Speaker 16: for a service, and actually the capacity issue of something 1028 00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:29,920 Speaker 16: we need to work on as a service. 1029 00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:31,839 Speaker 2: So why are they doing this by the way, I mean, 1030 00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:34,360 Speaker 2: why not take them on, just add them to the 1031 00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:35,680 Speaker 2: bottom of the list. Why say no? 1032 00:47:37,040 --> 00:47:40,680 Speaker 16: Oh, look, I think our services feel quite challenged by 1033 00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:44,319 Speaker 16: taking on patients and they're not being able to offer 1034 00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:46,680 Speaker 16: them certainty and where they can book an appointment. And 1035 00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:48,480 Speaker 16: this is a practice set's been going on in some 1036 00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:52,080 Speaker 16: hospitals for many years. So we actually want to find 1037 00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:55,040 Speaker 16: some light on that properly. And look that in many cases, 1038 00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:57,560 Speaker 16: if you're working with primary care to support them with 1039 00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:01,960 Speaker 16: some more tools like diagnostics, us funding them to actually 1040 00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:05,840 Speaker 16: get engaged in providing some of that specialist support, you know, 1041 00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:07,839 Speaker 16: there are lots of solutions that we could look at 1042 00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:08,640 Speaker 16: to try to address that. 1043 00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:08,960 Speaker 7: Yeah. 1044 00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:10,760 Speaker 2: Now, the second thing that you guys are going backwards 1045 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:13,279 Speaker 2: on is the immunization rates for kids around about two 1046 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 2: years old. What's going on here? 1047 00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:18,560 Speaker 16: Yeah, that's really stubborn and you know, we've got to 1048 00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:22,200 Speaker 16: do a lot of work to get confidence back in 1049 00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:25,880 Speaker 16: immunization post COVID, But there is some hope we have 1050 00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:29,680 Speaker 16: a massive uplift and Patussus boosterricks to deal that at 1051 00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:31,480 Speaker 16: the moment. And so we do think that if we're 1052 00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:35,960 Speaker 16: our job is to get the information out tell our patients, 1053 00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:38,800 Speaker 16: get trusted people into communities to let them know that 1054 00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:40,960 Speaker 16: these vaccines are safe. You know, we know that that 1055 00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:44,680 Speaker 16: that has booken into Tassas as recent as November, and 1056 00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:46,760 Speaker 16: you know we need to apply that across the country. 1057 00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:48,600 Speaker 2: Is this a COVID thing? Is this? Is this a 1058 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:51,640 Speaker 2: result of people not wanting you know, forcing the jab 1059 00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:54,680 Speaker 2: on people during COVID, them not wanting that, them going 1060 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:56,279 Speaker 2: down the rabbit hole and now they've gone off all 1061 00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:57,080 Speaker 2: jabs altogether. 1062 00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:00,840 Speaker 16: Well, it's certainly what there's some of the survey and 1063 00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:05,120 Speaker 16: feed that we've had from consumer groups tell us that 1064 00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 16: there is this trust in vaccines in general because of COVID. 1065 00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:11,480 Speaker 16: But you know, I need to remind people these vaccines 1066 00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:15,040 Speaker 16: well proven of them. We've been using them for a 1067 00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:17,640 Speaker 16: long time in our health systems. That evidence is pretty 1068 00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:20,880 Speaker 16: sound and so you know that the it's really important 1069 00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:22,280 Speaker 16: that we do rebuild that trust. 1070 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:24,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's not going to work saying that though, 1071 00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:27,040 Speaker 2: is it? Because that's what Jasinda said about the vaccine 1072 00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:29,640 Speaker 2: and then and then and then people kind of felt 1073 00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:31,560 Speaker 2: the opposite about us. We probably lost them, haven't we. 1074 00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 16: Well there are some that and and we are keeping 1075 00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:37,400 Speaker 16: a close eye on the decline rates because we do 1076 00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:40,000 Speaker 16: count the people who are offered a vaccine and then 1077 00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:42,040 Speaker 16: have declined, and then we want to understand why, and 1078 00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:45,640 Speaker 16: it varies around the country. But certainly we've also learned 1079 00:49:45,760 --> 00:49:47,920 Speaker 16: and communities have told us and we who also led 1080 00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:50,879 Speaker 16: us through COVID, if there's a trust person that comes 1081 00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:53,800 Speaker 16: into your community, whether it's the mud, I know that 1082 00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:58,800 Speaker 16: that as somebody who actually you know, is informed and trained, 1083 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:02,080 Speaker 16: that can be really helped. For the other opportunity we're 1084 00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:05,440 Speaker 16: opening up as other people being able to vaccinatees. So 1085 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:08,080 Speaker 16: we've got pharmacies training to do. You know, there are 1086 00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:09,759 Speaker 16: over two hundred now who can do a whole of 1087 00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:15,240 Speaker 16: life vaccination, including under two midwives and vaccinats, but also Plunkett. 1088 00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:18,320 Speaker 16: So we're really pleased to see Plunkett joining the vaccination 1089 00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:18,759 Speaker 16: team that. 1090 00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:20,520 Speaker 2: It'll be helpful. Are you getting a break this year? 1091 00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:23,239 Speaker 26: Yes, yes i am. 1092 00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:26,239 Speaker 16: I'm looking forward to finishing work early next week. 1093 00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:28,320 Speaker 2: I feel like you deserve it, Margie, after all of 1094 00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:30,400 Speaker 2: the year that you've been through. Merry Christmas and go well, 1095 00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:33,680 Speaker 2: that's Marjorie Upper Health, New Zealand Commissioner. Hither the issue 1096 00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:36,239 Speaker 2: with immunization rates is the funding model for providers. I 1097 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:39,080 Speaker 2: call absolute bs on that. The reason I call bs 1098 00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:41,560 Speaker 2: on that is because as you know, having a baby, 1099 00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:44,920 Speaker 2: Michael is going to arrive next year, you know, in 1100 00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:48,880 Speaker 2: like about five weeks time. Thank god, Lord let it 1101 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:52,320 Speaker 2: go fast. Anyway, So when baby before baby Michael arrived, 1102 00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:55,239 Speaker 2: I you know, but well recently before, in preparation of 1103 00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:58,240 Speaker 2: baby Michael arriving, I got in touch with various members 1104 00:50:58,239 --> 00:50:59,640 Speaker 2: of the family and I said, listen's probably been a 1105 00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:02,279 Speaker 2: little wile since you had your hooping cough up. Your jab. 1106 00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:04,320 Speaker 2: JAB got to get it every five years or so, 1107 00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:06,640 Speaker 2: and we've got a hoop and coff epidemic going on, 1108 00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:08,799 Speaker 2: So can you just go get yourself like, you know whatever. 1109 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:10,759 Speaker 2: So my mum went and got her jab a couple 1110 00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:13,239 Speaker 2: of days ago, done the right thing. Two members of 1111 00:51:13,280 --> 00:51:16,360 Speaker 2: the family, which probably means it impacts about six members 1112 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:18,440 Speaker 2: of the family are not going to get the hooping 1113 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:21,880 Speaker 2: cough jabs because they have gone all weird because of 1114 00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:26,880 Speaker 2: the owner. They've gone totally lost their trust in jabs. 1115 00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 2: Will not get the hooping cough jab And the only 1116 00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:31,080 Speaker 2: way around that is basically we can't see them for 1117 00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:33,399 Speaker 2: six weeks because it's sort of like, well, you could 1118 00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:35,040 Speaker 2: see them, but then you could end up with a 1119 00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:36,719 Speaker 2: dead baby, and who wants that. So I don't want 1120 00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:39,120 Speaker 2: baby Michael to die because because somebody in the family 1121 00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:40,600 Speaker 2: didn't want to get a job. So I call base 1122 00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:42,000 Speaker 2: on that. I think what's gone on? And I think 1123 00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:44,800 Speaker 2: this is when you sit there and you sit in judgment, 1124 00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:46,759 Speaker 2: and you go, we did the right thing, forcing people 1125 00:51:46,800 --> 00:51:49,640 Speaker 2: to get the JAB and do the mandates. Just ask 1126 00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:51,759 Speaker 2: yourself if it really was the right thing, because now 1127 00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:53,879 Speaker 2: we've got a really big problem trying to givince people 1128 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:56,799 Speaker 2: that we're right when we say trust the hooping cough 1129 00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:59,920 Speaker 2: jab and go and get it. The father also needs 1130 00:51:59,920 --> 00:52:01,640 Speaker 2: to get it. But that's the problem. There is not 1131 00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:05,440 Speaker 2: JAB resistance. It's just mail and competence, isn't it. In 1132 00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:08,479 Speaker 2: terms of organizing a doctor's visit, Helen Clark Heather didn't 1133 00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:10,279 Speaker 2: go to white tonguey on at least one occasion, so 1134 00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:11,200 Speaker 2: it's no big deal. 1135 00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:15,399 Speaker 17: Seventeen away from it, the Vike Asking Breakfast Full Show 1136 00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:18,520 Speaker 17: podcast on iHeartRadio, how ad By News. 1137 00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:24,399 Speaker 2: Talks, it'd be hither your baby Michael will be a dragon? Well, 1138 00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:27,960 Speaker 2: I mean that would be kind of cool, wouldn't it. 1139 00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:30,920 Speaker 2: So you're weird, aren't you? Honestly? 1140 00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:31,319 Speaker 22: Wow? 1141 00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:34,200 Speaker 2: I mean that's taking, that's taken, going down.

That's awesome. 1144 00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:40,960 Speaker 13: Here, the virus theory is a fraud. 1145 00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:43,759 Speaker 2: Do your research, seat, do your own research. There we go, 1146 00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:47,520 Speaker 2: there we go. Started that thing off. Anyway, I got 1147 00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:49,279 Speaker 2: the jab.

Hopefully Mike has got an award. He's got 1151 00:52:58,640 --> 00:53:01,440 Speaker 2: an award, do I want to? Okay, Well, he's got 1152 00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:03,919 Speaker 2: an award in his absence. There is Look, I don't 1153 00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:05,920 Speaker 2: know if you if you're aware of this, and I 1154 00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:08,200 Speaker 2: don't recommend doing your own research on this one, but 1155 00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:13,080 Speaker 2: there is a little podcast on a rival radio station, 1156 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:16,399 Speaker 2: and I think the clue is in rival radio station 1157 00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:20,960 Speaker 2: called media Watch, and it's not very good. I'm not 1158 00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:24,399 Speaker 2: gonna lie to you. I've listened to it from time. 1159 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:26,359 Speaker 2: I've stopped listening to it because it's not very good 1160 00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:29,360 Speaker 2: and it's just a little bit whiney, but anyway, so 1161 00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:33,400 Speaker 2: in the spirit of being whiney, they've given Mike an award. 1162 00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:37,040 Speaker 2: They say they've compared him to Jack and they've said, 1163 00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:39,400 Speaker 2: look good, look at how good Jack is. Jack's so awesome. 1164 00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:41,840 Speaker 2: Jack does all these interviews and he's really hard on 1165 00:53:41,880 --> 00:53:45,319 Speaker 2: the politicians. Mike's not like that. Mike takes a different tack. 1166 00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:49,080 Speaker 2: Back in February, a listener asked Mike why he seemed 1167 00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:52,440 Speaker 2: to give the Prime Minister an easier ride than opposition politicians, 1168 00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:54,960 Speaker 2: and he replied, Mate, he hasn't done anything apart from 1169 00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:57,080 Speaker 2: open some envelopes and they've exploded in his face. Let 1170 00:53:57,120 --> 00:53:58,560 Speaker 2: him get his feet under the table, get a bit 1171 00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:01,080 Speaker 2: of legislation passed, and then in three years time, when 1172 00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:02,960 Speaker 2: he has another crack, watch me give him a hard time. 1173 00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:05,680 Speaker 2: You bet I will. They say, an interesting strategy to 1174 00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:08,080 Speaker 2: promise the Prime minister an easy ride for a full term, 1175 00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:10,600 Speaker 2: but would he stick to that position or the following 1176 00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:13,479 Speaker 2: month he offered lux in a reassurance, I'm feeling sorry 1177 00:54:13,560 --> 00:54:16,160 Speaker 2: for you. There's a bomb going off every day, Osking 1178 00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:18,680 Speaker 2: told the Prime Minister. I'm glad you feel sorry for me, 1179 00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:21,320 Speaker 2: said the Prime minister back to him, and because of that, 1180 00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:25,040 Speaker 2: he has got the holding power to account award from 1181 00:54:25,120 --> 00:54:28,800 Speaker 2: Media Watch. Now, that would be fine if that's what 1182 00:54:28,960 --> 00:54:31,360 Speaker 2: actually happened, But it didn't happen, did it, Because I 1183 00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:34,120 Speaker 2: don't know. If you've been tuning into to Mike regularly 1184 00:54:34,280 --> 00:54:36,440 Speaker 2: like the rest of the country, media Watch, you probably 1185 00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:40,600 Speaker 2: should have given you the name of your podcast. He's 1186 00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:43,439 Speaker 2: been tough on Luckxon, like quite tough on Luxon. 1187 00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:45,760 Speaker 3: So come on, give me a break. 1188 00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:48,319 Speaker 2: There we go see Luxon's even begging for a break 1189 00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:51,480 Speaker 2: from Mike. I got an award. I got an award 1190 00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:54,080 Speaker 2: because in September, I let you know that Samian Brown's 1191 00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:57,319 Speaker 2: nickname is Golden Balls, because he gets everything right. Because 1192 00:54:57,320 --> 00:54:59,839 Speaker 2: I was told that the caucus colleagues have called him 1193 00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:01,920 Speaker 2: God Golden Balls, and I did say, I don't know 1194 00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:03,640 Speaker 2: if this is true, but I'm going to tell you regardless, 1195 00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:05,399 Speaker 2: because I only got told by one person, and normally 1196 00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:07,360 Speaker 2: you need to stack it up with a couple of sources. Anyway, 1197 00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:10,760 Speaker 2: when Media Watch scoured the archives and the internet, because 1198 00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:12,520 Speaker 2: that's what you do if you're in caucus, you go, 1199 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:15,680 Speaker 2: you know what Samion Brown's nickname as Golden bulls, So 1200 00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:17,400 Speaker 2: I'm going to put it on the internet. No, you 1201 00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:21,960 Speaker 2: don't weirdos anyway. We could find no references out of 1202 00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:24,399 Speaker 2: z B to the bull zy name. Yeah, because nobody 1203 00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:26,279 Speaker 2: puts it out like we don't put your nicknames on 1204 00:55:26,320 --> 00:55:29,160 Speaker 2: the internet. Media watch anyway. Political journalists spoken to and 1205 00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 2: confidence could not confirm or deny the existence of the nickname. 1206 00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:34,520 Speaker 2: One said they'd never heard of it. Well, because not 1207 00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:37,200 Speaker 2: listening to news talk ZB are they for listening to 1208 00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:39,239 Speaker 2: media watch? We know a lot if you're listening to 1209 00:55:39,280 --> 00:55:42,360 Speaker 2: media watch anyway, the Golden Balls source should reveal themselves 1210 00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:44,799 Speaker 2: to end the suspicion and until them Heather, Until then 1211 00:55:44,840 --> 00:55:47,160 Speaker 2: Heather gets the award for baseless rumor of the Year. 1212 00:55:47,239 --> 00:55:49,160 Speaker 2: I'm going to take that. I'm going to take because 1213 00:55:49,200 --> 00:55:50,879 Speaker 2: that's going to get me in with the vaccine crowd 1214 00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:52,719 Speaker 2: as well, because I'm spreading disinformation. 1215 00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:55,760 Speaker 13: So I went anyway, So this is all big news 1216 00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:59,320 Speaker 13: to me that these I was not aware that we 1217 00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:00,520 Speaker 13: had a rival radio station. 1218 00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:02,680 Speaker 2: No, I wasn't aware of it. Once upon a time, 1219 00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:04,920 Speaker 2: I was aware of it, but lately I thought I 1220 00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:07,399 Speaker 2: didn't realize that they still existed. However, what I would 1221 00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:10,360 Speaker 2: say is. I am really stoked that they are handing 1222 00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:13,759 Speaker 2: out awards, which is a very very generous attitude from them, 1223 00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:17,560 Speaker 2: given that awards is not something coming their way. Thick 1224 00:56:17,640 --> 00:56:18,759 Speaker 2: and Fast, ten away from. 1225 00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:22,400 Speaker 1: Eight Heather dupasy Allen on the My Costing Breakfast with 1226 00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:25,160 Speaker 1: the Range Rover Villa News, Tom sadb. 1227 00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:27,680 Speaker 2: Hey by the way, Tim Wilson, Trisherson, they're going to 1228 00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:30,719 Speaker 2: be with us after eight to wrap the newsweek, but 1229 00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:34,400 Speaker 2: actually just the whole year. Why not seven away from eight? Now, 1230 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:36,920 Speaker 2: as you've heard this morning, the speculation is finally over 1231 00:56:37,000 --> 00:56:39,120 Speaker 2: and Liam Lawson has been named as Red Bulls next 1232 00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:41,640 Speaker 2: full time F one driver. He's going to partner with 1233 00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:44,720 Speaker 2: Max Verstappen. His days being on a one hundred thousand 1234 00:56:44,719 --> 00:56:47,120 Speaker 2: dollars salary as a reserve driver are over. He's going 1235 00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:49,560 Speaker 2: to be in the big money now. Motorsport expert and 1236 00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:53,600 Speaker 2: former McLaren Race member Bob McMurray is with us right now. 1237 00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:55,799 Speaker 3: Bob, Hello, good morning. 1238 00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:57,759 Speaker 2: Have Where does he rate? I mean, we have had 1239 00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,920 Speaker 2: a lot of very very high profile drivers come out 1240 00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:01,920 Speaker 2: this country. Where does he rate? Is he the most 1241 00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:02,600 Speaker 2: high profile? 1242 00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:04,120 Speaker 3: No? 1243 00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:07,600 Speaker 22: Well, I don't suppose he's got much of a profile 1244 00:57:07,640 --> 00:57:10,399 Speaker 22: internationally at the moment, compared to the likes of Bruce 1245 00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:12,719 Speaker 22: McLaren's any Holme pre sem and that sort of thing. 1246 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:15,239 Speaker 22: But he's certainly joined their ranks, hasn't he, in that 1247 00:57:15,360 --> 00:57:16,960 Speaker 22: he is a Formula one driver, But he's been a 1248 00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:19,240 Speaker 22: Formula one driver for eleven races. Now, of course he's 1249 00:57:19,280 --> 00:57:20,160 Speaker 22: an old hand, isn't he. 1250 00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:22,440 Speaker 2: How do you reckon he's going to go when he's 1251 00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:24,640 Speaker 2: racing with Maxim Stepan, because the problem is Max has 1252 00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:25,920 Speaker 2: got a really weird style, doesn't he. 1253 00:57:26,880 --> 00:57:30,200 Speaker 22: Yeah, apparently he sets his car up definitely to everybody else. 1254 00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:32,400 Speaker 22: But what Liam is going to have to do is 1255 00:57:32,440 --> 00:57:35,160 Speaker 22: adapt completely. I mean, you know, it is great news. 1256 00:57:35,600 --> 00:57:38,800 Speaker 22: It's a vindication for him, indication for his family, of 1257 00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:41,960 Speaker 22: indication for news and motorsport in the way that the 1258 00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:45,400 Speaker 22: motorsport ladder has got him from kating all the way 1259 00:57:45,520 --> 00:57:48,440 Speaker 22: through to Formula One. Okay, he's done it himself obviously, 1260 00:57:48,520 --> 00:57:51,960 Speaker 22: but that ladder was there and he is now at 1261 00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:54,120 Speaker 22: base camp on Everest. To put it that way, he 1262 00:57:54,200 --> 00:57:57,080 Speaker 22: has got a huge mountain to climb now. I mean 1263 00:57:57,120 --> 00:58:01,120 Speaker 22: he's going to be expected to match or better, preferably 1264 00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:04,480 Speaker 22: a full time world champion in a team that he 1265 00:58:04,560 --> 00:58:09,480 Speaker 22: has molded around himself. Liam's done eleven races, so that 1266 00:58:09,720 --> 00:58:13,160 Speaker 22: the task in front of him is massive. It's kind 1267 00:58:13,200 --> 00:58:16,000 Speaker 22: of getting even bigger with all the pressure that goes on, 1268 00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:20,440 Speaker 22: with the continuous interviews and why aren't you doing this right? 1269 00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:22,840 Speaker 22: Why do you know? There's going to be an awful 1270 00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:26,040 Speaker 22: lot thrown at him? But knowing him, knowing his family, 1271 00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:30,240 Speaker 22: I think he's more than capable of coping with all that. 1272 00:58:31,400 --> 00:58:32,880 Speaker 2: What does his pay go up to? 1273 00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:34,560 Speaker 3: Do you have any idea? 1274 00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:39,800 Speaker 22: No idea that he's had. I wouldn't say with an 1275 00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:42,480 Speaker 22: S on the end, No, not millions. I would say 1276 00:58:42,600 --> 00:58:48,560 Speaker 22: his salary for this first year would be it's going 1277 00:58:48,640 --> 00:58:51,200 Speaker 22: to be approaching a million, I would say, but you 1278 00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:52,360 Speaker 22: know that's the US dollars. 1279 00:58:53,320 --> 00:58:53,760 Speaker 3: I don't know. 1280 00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:58,520 Speaker 22: I don't know how they do their contracts. That's not bad. 1281 00:58:58,560 --> 00:59:01,240 Speaker 22: I could handle that. But the one thing he's got 1282 00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:03,480 Speaker 22: to do is make sure he's got the contract all 1283 00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:06,000 Speaker 22: the way through the year and he stays there. Because 1284 00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:08,840 Speaker 22: Red Bull have an awful habit of getting rid of 1285 00:59:08,960 --> 00:59:12,280 Speaker 22: drivers when they don't like them halfway through a season. 1286 00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:15,120 Speaker 22: So that's his main concern. He's not concerned about the 1287 00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:18,360 Speaker 22: money now, just establishing his feet on the ground in 1288 00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:18,919 Speaker 22: that team. 1289 00:59:19,120 --> 00:59:21,120 Speaker 2: Now the hard work really starts, Bob. Thank you very 1290 00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:22,560 Speaker 2: much and thanks for getting up so early for us. 1291 00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:24,600 Speaker 2: Bob McMurray speaking to us out of Sydney. We woke 1292 00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:28,080 Speaker 2: him up. Motors bought expert obviously former McLaren race driver 1293 00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:31,400 Speaker 2: Liam is. The other thing Liam needs to brace himself 1294 00:59:31,440 --> 00:59:32,880 Speaker 2: for is that he's going to cop it on social 1295 00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:37,760 Speaker 2: media and probably from media watch. Actually, they're already really 1296 00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:39,560 Speaker 2: angry with him. They're already blaming him for this, and 1297 00:59:39,640 --> 00:59:41,480 Speaker 2: he's the devil incarnate. But this is just the fun 1298 00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:43,480 Speaker 2: of This is the fun of F one. So this 1299 00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:46,680 Speaker 2: just comes with the territory. He's given an interview to 1300 00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:49,040 Speaker 2: the Time saying, not only did his parents have to 1301 00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:52,040 Speaker 2: sell their house to basically fund his way through, you know, 1302 00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:53,920 Speaker 2: learning how to race and stuff, but his sisters had 1303 00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:56,600 Speaker 2: to give up Irish dancing so that he could be 1304 00:59:56,640 --> 00:59:59,280 Speaker 2: an F one. But hey, who makes two million bucks 1305 00:59:59,320 --> 01:00:00,400 Speaker 2: out of Irish answering? 1306 01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:01,640 Speaker 3: Right? So he was. 1307 01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:07,000 Speaker 2: Baby just shot down like that, just shut down like that.

I mean, that's well 1480 01:07:52,680 --> 01:07:54,280 Speaker 3: and it's great to see. 1481 01:07:54,640 --> 01:07:57,200 Speaker 25: Yeah, the sort of the you know, we see the 1482 01:07:57,240 --> 01:07:59,200 Speaker 25: ascent and we just we actually see people at the 1483 01:07:59,240 --> 01:08:01,080 Speaker 25: top of the part me the top of the mountain, 1484 01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:03,600 Speaker 25: but actually there's there's a long way up there. 1485 01:08:03,640 --> 01:08:05,600 Speaker 3: So I was fascinated to hear about that. 1486 01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:08,760 Speaker 2: Motor sports is a sport trash, but esports is not 1487 01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:09,200 Speaker 2: a sport. 1488 01:08:12,120 --> 01:08:16,960 Speaker 10: Well, I think it is a huge professional sport if 1489 01:08:17,080 --> 01:08:22,759 Speaker 10: you're into esport, But I personally see it as different 1490 01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:25,120 Speaker 10: from sport as we know it, i e. 1491 01:08:25,400 --> 01:08:26,280 Speaker 3: A physical sport. 1492 01:08:26,360 --> 01:08:28,080 Speaker 2: But I'm trying to figure out why we are like 1493 01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:30,240 Speaker 2: this about it is it's what's the difference? 1494 01:08:30,320 --> 01:08:30,439 Speaker 16: Is it? 1495 01:08:30,520 --> 01:08:32,880 Speaker 2: Because we expect if you're doing sport that you have 1496 01:08:33,040 --> 01:08:35,519 Speaker 2: to be actually there has to be a physical challenge 1497 01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:36,120 Speaker 2: involved in that. 1498 01:08:37,080 --> 01:08:39,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I think I think you go ahead, 1499 01:08:39,320 --> 01:08:40,400 Speaker 3: go ahead, I think so. 1500 01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:44,040 Speaker 10: And I think that's probably in the end the decision 1501 01:08:44,120 --> 01:08:46,960 Speaker 10: that High Performance Sport in New Zealand has made around 1502 01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:51,560 Speaker 10: not giving funding to esports because high performance sport, you know, 1503 01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:55,719 Speaker 10: they are about the kind of traditional high performance sports 1504 01:08:55,760 --> 01:08:59,400 Speaker 10: that we think about like cycling and rowing and et cetera, 1505 01:08:59,439 --> 01:09:01,679 Speaker 10: et cetera. And the other thing I would say about 1506 01:09:01,800 --> 01:09:07,400 Speaker 10: esports is this is a billion, billion, billion dollar business globally. 1507 01:09:07,680 --> 01:09:11,000 Speaker 10: There is huge money in esports around the world, and 1508 01:09:11,360 --> 01:09:14,160 Speaker 10: I'm just I'm not sure that if you're comparing it 1509 01:09:14,280 --> 01:09:16,800 Speaker 10: to the sports that high performance sports fund, a lot 1510 01:09:16,840 --> 01:09:20,120 Speaker 10: of those sports people still have to be amateur and 1511 01:09:20,240 --> 01:09:22,160 Speaker 10: tough it out and they really need that funding. 1512 01:09:22,400 --> 01:09:23,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a little bit. You know what I think 1513 01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:26,960 Speaker 2: it is, Tim, I think that it's like tomatoes being 1514 01:09:27,040 --> 01:09:30,840 Speaker 2: technically a fruit. Like you can say, technically you are 1515 01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:33,080 Speaker 2: a sport, but I'm not going to put you in 1516 01:09:33,160 --> 01:09:33,960 Speaker 2: my fruit salad. 1517 01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:34,880 Speaker 3: Do you know what I mean? 1518 01:09:34,960 --> 01:09:37,760 Speaker 2: Like tomatoes are a fruit, but it's not really a fruit. 1519 01:09:38,680 --> 01:09:42,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly exactly. I would submit that esports are a competition, 1520 01:09:43,280 --> 01:09:43,720 Speaker 3: they're not a. 1521 01:09:43,760 --> 01:09:47,280 Speaker 25: Sport, So it's a sports a bit like say poker 1522 01:09:47,560 --> 01:09:50,320 Speaker 25: or Rubik's Cube Cube. I'd say beer Pong's more of 1523 01:09:50,360 --> 01:09:54,160 Speaker 25: a sport than esport. And this whole, this whole, I 1524 01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:56,560 Speaker 25: guess the thing too, is like the way that we 1525 01:09:56,640 --> 01:09:59,519 Speaker 25: live our lives these days, we're actually quite disconnected from 1526 01:09:59,560 --> 01:10:01,840 Speaker 25: our body and a lot of what we do. So 1527 01:10:01,960 --> 01:10:03,840 Speaker 25: you know, we're creatures, are body, mind and soul, but 1528 01:10:03,960 --> 01:10:05,559 Speaker 25: a lot of what we do is actually we don't 1529 01:10:05,560 --> 01:10:06,639 Speaker 25: really use our bodies. 1530 01:10:07,040 --> 01:10:08,599 Speaker 3: And I think, you know, trust to your point. 1531 01:10:08,720 --> 01:10:11,200 Speaker 25: Once you know, once you sort of start to connect, 1532 01:10:11,200 --> 01:10:13,000 Speaker 25: you know, you do yoga or something you think, actually, 1533 01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:15,240 Speaker 25: a lot of the stuff I'm not doing I should 1534 01:10:15,240 --> 01:10:19,200 Speaker 25: be doing. So I quite like high performance Sport New 1535 01:10:19,280 --> 01:10:20,679 Speaker 25: Zealand for making this decision. 1536 01:10:20,760 --> 01:10:21,360 Speaker 2: See ballsy. 1537 01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:23,840 Speaker 10: Okay, listen, just let you is on a very quick 1538 01:10:23,840 --> 01:10:26,679 Speaker 10: little secret. Actually, speaking of tomatoes, I have the best 1539 01:10:26,760 --> 01:10:27,839 Speaker 10: tomato crop. 1540 01:10:27,920 --> 01:10:28,639 Speaker 3: Ever this year. 1541 01:10:28,680 --> 01:10:30,960 Speaker 10: And I'm quite a big tomato grow And let me 1542 01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:33,040 Speaker 10: let me tell you. You can now buy a tomato 1543 01:10:33,640 --> 01:10:36,680 Speaker 10: that's grafted onto rootstock and on one half of the 1544 01:10:36,760 --> 01:10:39,559 Speaker 10: vine you get an orange cherry and the other half 1545 01:10:39,640 --> 01:10:40,719 Speaker 10: you get a red cherry. 1546 01:10:40,920 --> 01:10:41,400 Speaker 20: So cool. 1547 01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:42,519 Speaker 2: Have you got that going on? 1548 01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:44,000 Speaker 25: I have got that going on. 1549 01:10:44,120 --> 01:10:47,000 Speaker 10: It's absolutely fantastic. And it's still not too late to 1550 01:10:47,080 --> 01:10:48,000 Speaker 10: plant your tomatoes. 1551 01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:48,960 Speaker 24: And anyone out there is. 1552 01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:52,479 Speaker 2: Actually good point, because our tomato plant is going to plants. 1553 01:10:52,479 --> 01:10:54,759 Speaker 2: Actually I've gone double this year. It's going nuts. Actually, 1554 01:10:54,800 --> 01:10:56,519 Speaker 2: so maybe it's the thing in the in the in 1555 01:10:56,600 --> 01:10:57,559 Speaker 2: the in the space. 1556 01:10:58,000 --> 01:10:58,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1557 01:10:58,479 --> 01:11:00,840 Speaker 2: Now, okay, who's your politician of the year. 1558 01:11:01,960 --> 01:11:04,439 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, look, I'm going to go I'm going to 1559 01:11:04,479 --> 01:11:05,840 Speaker 3: go with Simeon Brown. 1560 01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:10,479 Speaker 25: Doesn't escalate, doesn't let things escalate. Stuff that counts Rhodes, potholes, etc. 1561 01:11:10,880 --> 01:11:14,439 Speaker 25: But I think you know Winston geopolitical he's Doinston's a 1562 01:11:14,439 --> 01:11:16,760 Speaker 25: great foreign Minister and I think geopolitics is going to 1563 01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:18,360 Speaker 25: rise up in the next two or three years. 1564 01:11:19,439 --> 01:11:21,200 Speaker 2: I agree with you. I think in time we will 1565 01:11:21,240 --> 01:11:23,200 Speaker 2: be grateful for Winston actually for what he's doing right now. 1566 01:11:23,240 --> 01:11:24,040 Speaker 2: What do you Reckontrish? 1567 01:11:24,960 --> 01:11:25,160 Speaker 16: Yeah? 1568 01:11:25,479 --> 01:11:29,200 Speaker 10: I have felt good actually with Winston as Foreign Minister. 1569 01:11:29,439 --> 01:11:33,160 Speaker 10: He has the gravitask, he takes the role seriously, he 1570 01:11:33,280 --> 01:11:35,760 Speaker 10: really gets it and I think he is respected and 1571 01:11:35,880 --> 01:11:38,480 Speaker 10: he's put in a lot more work into our relationships. 1572 01:11:38,920 --> 01:11:43,559 Speaker 10: My top performer this year is Ericas Stanford. I think 1573 01:11:43,640 --> 01:11:47,000 Speaker 10: she's done fantastic things in education and it's an area 1574 01:11:47,720 --> 01:11:49,639 Speaker 10: we absolutely need to get on top. 1575 01:11:49,479 --> 01:11:50,479 Speaker 3: Of in New Zealand. 1576 01:11:51,120 --> 01:11:53,920 Speaker 10: But I've got two others sitting underneath that, and these 1577 01:11:53,960 --> 01:11:58,040 Speaker 10: are actually prizes for something we now undervalue in politics, 1578 01:11:58,120 --> 01:12:01,080 Speaker 10: which is oratory and the ability to speak in the house. 1579 01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:03,240 Speaker 2: Let me guess Shane Jones is in there. 1580 01:12:03,680 --> 01:12:06,080 Speaker 10: And well no, Shane, Shane's great.

He has that old 1583 01:12:14,120 --> 01:12:16,680 Speaker 10: political skill. He can stand up in the house, he 1584 01:12:16,760 --> 01:12:19,799 Speaker 10: can speak on any piece of legislation that the whippers 1585 01:12:19,880 --> 01:12:23,000 Speaker 10: just probably chucked it in five minutes beforehand, and he's 1586 01:12:23,080 --> 01:12:26,639 Speaker 10: bringing back. I think that skill of oratory and speaking 1587 01:12:26,680 --> 01:12:29,400 Speaker 10: in the house great to watch. The other one is 1588 01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:33,559 Speaker 10: Hannah Rafferty mighty clark for her, she's the young Maori 1589 01:12:33,640 --> 01:12:37,320 Speaker 10: politician and Maori. Her speech on the fore Court of 1590 01:12:37,400 --> 01:12:41,080 Speaker 10: Parliament at the Heckoy is one of the best political 1591 01:12:41,160 --> 01:12:42,559 Speaker 10: speeches I have seen. 1592 01:12:42,800 --> 01:12:43,599 Speaker 17: In many years? 1593 01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:48,360 Speaker 2: Was it better than her? Which actually was really cool? 1594 01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:51,639 Speaker 10: Well, that was actually and if I'm thinking about politics, 1595 01:12:51,800 --> 01:12:56,360 Speaker 10: politics is theater. That was actually brilliant theater that everyone 1596 01:12:56,560 --> 01:12:59,360 Speaker 10: around the world watched her. But her speech to that 1597 01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:04,800 Speaker 10: Hackoy was it line and length, absolutely perfect, brilliant mana 1598 01:13:04,920 --> 01:13:06,040 Speaker 10: from such a young person. 1599 01:13:06,760 --> 01:13:07,240 Speaker 2: I loved it. 1600 01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:11,719 Speaker 25: Can can I throw anccolade out one to just quickly 1601 01:13:12,040 --> 01:13:14,200 Speaker 25: Chris Luson's end of the year speech this year? 1602 01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:16,920 Speaker 3: My goodness, it was like a comedic triumph.

The sleigh would cost four billion 1607 01:13:26,920 --> 01:13:28,960 Speaker 25: dollars and the reindeer would be working from home. 1608 01:13:29,280 --> 01:13:32,479 Speaker 3: Payer speech writer, more person payrise, guys. 1609 01:13:32,560 --> 01:13:34,960 Speaker 2: Go well, Merry Christmas to you both, trishas. 1610 01:13:34,479 --> 01:13:39,760 Speaker 17: And Terry Christmas Christmas everyone, Heather duplessy Ellen Pond on 1611 01:13:39,960 --> 01:13:43,080 Speaker 17: Mike Hosking Breakfast with Bailey's Real Estate News Talks. 1612 01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:46,160 Speaker 2: Heather, I gave it drinking this year.

Yes, it's 1795 01:22:49,800 --> 01:22:52,120 Speaker 2: that kind of a day. Okay, So Tory Fino. So 1796 01:22:52,240 --> 01:22:55,080 Speaker 2: a funny thing happened with Tory yesterday. Tory goes on 1797 01:22:55,280 --> 01:22:58,120 Speaker 2: with Nick and Wellington once a month and it was 1798 01:22:58,280 --> 01:23:02,320 Speaker 2: it was it was that time time of the month yesterday, 1799 01:23:02,400 --> 01:23:04,439 Speaker 2: and so Tory was on and they were chatting about 1800 01:23:04,439 --> 01:23:07,240 Speaker 2: something which which seemed to me to be relatively innocuous. 1801 01:23:07,240 --> 01:23:08,720 Speaker 2: So we chatting about the fact that Tory has got 1802 01:23:08,760 --> 01:23:11,880 Speaker 2: this business advisory group in Wellington and a chap called 1803 01:23:11,920 --> 01:23:14,679 Speaker 2: Mark McGinnis, who I think is a developble or something 1804 01:23:14,760 --> 01:23:17,080 Speaker 2: like that. He's got anyway, he's got commercial interests. He 1805 01:23:17,280 --> 01:23:19,920 Speaker 2: was he's on the business advisory group and he's left 1806 01:23:20,120 --> 01:23:22,080 Speaker 2: and it appears that he's left because of it. He 1807 01:23:22,160 --> 01:23:24,720 Speaker 2: doesn't agree with the Golden Mile. Nobody agrees with the 1808 01:23:24,720 --> 01:23:26,360 Speaker 2: Golden Mile, and he's left because of that. And anyway, 1809 01:23:26,439 --> 01:23:29,080 Speaker 2: Nick asked Tory about that, and this is what Tory said. 1810 01:23:29,400 --> 01:23:31,519 Speaker 31: You know, the feedback from some people is going to 1811 01:23:31,560 --> 01:23:35,840 Speaker 31: be canceled the Golden Mile. That's not the most he 1812 01:23:35,840 --> 01:23:37,960 Speaker 31: would preferred that it would have been held off, but 1813 01:23:38,280 --> 01:23:40,639 Speaker 31: I'd rather not spect for him. Actually I probably shouldn't 1814 01:23:40,640 --> 01:23:43,479 Speaker 31: have said that, And I was very open about not 1815 01:23:43,640 --> 01:23:46,599 Speaker 31: doing that. The rest of the group wanted to go left, 1816 01:23:47,439 --> 01:23:48,599 Speaker 31: you'd have to ask him. 1817 01:23:48,760 --> 01:23:51,680 Speaker 2: Okay, So that basically she regretted what she said, and 1818 01:23:51,880 --> 01:23:53,880 Speaker 2: the question line continues for a few more minutes long. 1819 01:23:53,920 --> 01:23:55,200 Speaker 2: It's just really trying to get out of this. She 1820 01:23:55,200 --> 01:23:56,680 Speaker 2: shouldn't have said it, shouln't have said it, should have 1821 01:23:56,720 --> 01:23:59,280 Speaker 2: said it. So anyway, it gets whatever, gets boring. It's 1822 01:23:59,320 --> 01:24:00,800 Speaker 2: the same thing over and again, and they go to 1823 01:24:00,880 --> 01:24:02,920 Speaker 2: a break, come back from the break. 1824 01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:07,719 Speaker 32: Tory's not there, Wellington Morning, Tory Fano is in the studio. 1825 01:24:07,840 --> 01:24:10,240 Speaker 32: She just asked for a little bit of a time out. 1826 01:24:10,360 --> 01:24:12,759 Speaker 32: She was not happy with one some of the questions 1827 01:24:12,800 --> 01:24:14,160 Speaker 32: and just ask for a bit of a time out. 1828 01:24:14,200 --> 01:24:17,720 Speaker 32: So we'll we'll plod on and hopefully she'll come back 1829 01:24:17,720 --> 01:24:18,519 Speaker 32: and finish the out. 1830 01:24:18,800 --> 01:24:21,599 Speaker 2: That's weird. That's weird, though, isn't it Like if you're 1831 01:24:21,760 --> 01:24:23,880 Speaker 2: actually doing an interview and then you just ask for 1832 01:24:23,920 --> 01:24:26,320 Speaker 2: a little bit of a mental health break during the interview. 1833 01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:28,240 Speaker 2: So all up, she was out of the studio for 1834 01:24:28,280 --> 01:24:30,040 Speaker 2: four and a half minutes. It was two minutes two 1835 01:24:30,080 --> 01:24:31,960 Speaker 2: minutes of on airtime or thereabouts plus two and a 1836 01:24:32,000 --> 01:24:34,679 Speaker 2: half minutes or thereabouts. For the break anyway. The reason 1837 01:24:34,720 --> 01:24:37,479 Speaker 2: I'm telling you this is because Tory has had a 1838 01:24:37,680 --> 01:24:40,000 Speaker 2: Tory has had a tough time in interviews of late. 1839 01:24:40,040 --> 01:24:42,280 Speaker 2: I mean, there was the interview this year where she 1840 01:24:42,320 --> 01:24:44,160 Speaker 2: said that she'd sold her car to pay her bills, 1841 01:24:44,200 --> 01:24:45,600 Speaker 2: and then there was the interview where she had to 1842 01:24:45,640 --> 01:24:47,559 Speaker 2: admit that she actually hadn't sold her cards to pay 1843 01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:49,920 Speaker 2: her bills. And it's just been a kerfuffle, hasn't it. 1844 01:24:50,280 --> 01:24:52,840 Speaker 2: But Torri also said yesterday on air that she actually 1845 01:24:52,880 --> 01:24:54,400 Speaker 2: thinks she's done quite well this year and she would 1846 01:24:54,479 --> 01:24:56,960 Speaker 2: rate her performances is a seven or eight out of ten. 1847 01:24:57,720 --> 01:25:01,759 Speaker 2: So seven or eight, like this is a mere under pressure, 1848 01:25:01,920 --> 01:25:04,280 Speaker 2: right you don't you don't. You don't take a mental 1849 01:25:04,320 --> 01:25:06,400 Speaker 2: health break in the middle of an interview unless you're 1850 01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:09,559 Speaker 2: feeling some serious pressure coming down on you. So seven 1851 01:25:09,680 --> 01:25:12,880 Speaker 2: or eight out of ten given the context of you know, 1852 01:25:14,120 --> 01:25:18,040 Speaker 2: I guess having the government called the Crown Observer Daddy 1853 01:25:18,200 --> 01:25:22,240 Speaker 2: in to sit with you and babysit you, being ridiculed 1854 01:25:22,280 --> 01:25:24,519 Speaker 2: by the media for being but rubbish, not being able 1855 01:25:24,560 --> 01:25:26,960 Speaker 2: to get the reading cinema deal across the line, increasing 1856 01:25:26,960 --> 01:25:29,639 Speaker 2: the rates by seventeen percent, having the balls to increase 1857 01:25:29,680 --> 01:25:32,040 Speaker 2: the rates by sixteen percent next year. After all of that, 1858 01:25:32,400 --> 01:25:35,360 Speaker 2: having the water pipes bursting, having the butt the business 1859 01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:37,200 Speaker 2: is shut down all over the shop because you're doing 1860 01:25:37,280 --> 01:25:40,120 Speaker 2: the road cones everywhere and then pretending that you're selling 1861 01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:42,439 Speaker 2: your car to pay your bills. Despite all of that, 1862 01:25:42,600 --> 01:25:44,759 Speaker 2: seven seven or eight out of ten, you can imagine 1863 01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:46,840 Speaker 2: it's going to be stratispheric next to you when she's 1864 01:25:46,880 --> 01:25:49,160 Speaker 2: actually doing a good job and sort of not telling 1865 01:25:49,240 --> 01:25:51,639 Speaker 2: FIBs and state and ducking out during the middle of interviews, 1866 01:25:51,680 --> 01:25:53,160 Speaker 2: you can imagine that that rating is going to be 1867 01:25:53,200 --> 01:25:54,000 Speaker 2: through the roof, isn't it? 1868 01:25:54,240 --> 01:25:54,439 Speaker 3: Ten? 1869 01:25:54,520 --> 01:25:55,120 Speaker 2: Away from nine? 1870 01:25:55,880 --> 01:25:59,080 Speaker 1: The duplicy allent fon the my costing Breakfast with a 1871 01:25:59,280 --> 01:26:01,760 Speaker 1: Vida retire in Communities News togstad be. 1872 01:26:02,400 --> 01:26:05,080 Speaker 2: Actually here there's some interviewers a pretty harsh and persistence. 1873 01:26:05,120 --> 01:26:07,439 Speaker 2: So not everyone is tough enough to cope with those interviews, 1874 01:26:07,439 --> 01:26:09,600 Speaker 2: which is fair, but they're not everyone's a mare. But 1875 01:26:09,680 --> 01:26:12,360 Speaker 2: if you're a maage'd probably be tough enough.

When it comes to the TV shows and 1896 01:27:16,520 --> 01:27:18,800 Speaker 2: the movies, we have spent three hundred and forty million 1897 01:27:18,880 --> 01:27:22,400 Speaker 2: hours watching films and TV on Sky and Neon alone. 1898 01:27:22,600 --> 01:27:24,920 Speaker 2: That's not even counting Netflix, that's not even counting up 1899 01:27:24,960 --> 01:27:27,200 Speaker 2: all TV. That's not even counting TV's it's just these 1900 01:27:27,240 --> 01:27:30,799 Speaker 2: two three hundred and forty million hours. Top genre was drama, 1901 01:27:31,240 --> 01:27:34,120 Speaker 2: which we watched sixty five million hours worth of Top 1902 01:27:34,200 --> 01:27:38,519 Speaker 2: shows were Midsummer Murders and Law and Order Special Victims Unit. Surprising, 1903 01:27:38,600 --> 01:27:39,400 Speaker 2: Isn't It over? 1904 01:27:39,520 --> 01:27:39,560 Speaker 3: On? 1905 01:27:39,720 --> 01:27:43,519 Speaker 2: Neon? This is where the quality happens. Yellowstone top spot, 1906 01:27:43,680 --> 01:27:46,840 Speaker 2: followed by House of the Dragon, and clearly outside of 1907 01:27:46,920 --> 01:27:49,640 Speaker 2: those shows, the toddlers are taking over because because in 1908 01:27:49,960 --> 01:27:52,479 Speaker 2: the brackets of people who pay the bills in are 1909 01:27:52,479 --> 01:27:55,720 Speaker 2: twenty five to thirty five years old, they're watching Yellowstone, 1910 01:27:56,080 --> 01:28:04,240 Speaker 2: The White Lotus and then Bluey. To be fair, that'll 1911 01:28:04,280 --> 01:28:06,639 Speaker 2: be the children that you're trying to occupy the children. 1912 01:28:06,720 --> 01:28:08,519 Speaker 2: But when the children go to bed and you just 1913 01:28:08,560 --> 01:28:10,960 Speaker 2: want to chill out, you probably sit down and just 1914 01:28:11,000 --> 01:28:14,240 Speaker 2: watch it again because it's like it's entertaining without the streets, 1915 01:28:14,240 --> 01:28:14,519 Speaker 2: do you know. 1916 01:28:14,520 --> 01:28:14,800 Speaker 8: What I mean? 1917 01:28:14,880 --> 01:28:17,920 Speaker 2: That's what you need in your life anyways. So also 1918 01:28:18,000 --> 01:28:19,920 Speaker 2: in the top ten was Poor Patrol, Harry Potter, and 1919 01:28:19,960 --> 01:28:22,320 Speaker 2: Willie Wonker. When it came to movies, action was the 1920 01:28:22,360 --> 01:28:30,200 Speaker 2: most popular drama. The number one movie Mission Impossible, Dead 1921 01:28:30,280 --> 01:28:33,760 Speaker 2: Reckoning Part one over two hundred thousand hours of that 1922 01:28:34,000 --> 01:28:37,920 Speaker 2: was watched. Comedy was the second most popular genre. I'm 1923 01:28:38,000 --> 01:28:41,040 Speaker 2: surprised that people are watching Mission Impossible. I'll be honest 1924 01:28:41,080 --> 01:28:44,840 Speaker 2: with you. That's on the slightly more stressful end of 1925 01:28:44,880 --> 01:28:45,680 Speaker 2: the spectrum for me. 1926 01:28:46,160 --> 01:28:48,040 Speaker 14: Hey, well, the only thing that surprised me about it 1927 01:28:48,160 --> 01:28:50,280 Speaker 14: is that I watched it and realized that I'd already 1928 01:28:50,360 --> 01:28:51,960 Speaker 14: seen it in the trailer. 1929 01:28:52,240 --> 01:28:54,280 Speaker 13: They gave away like the end of the movie in 1930 01:28:54,400 --> 01:28:55,320 Speaker 13: the trailer. 1931 01:28:55,080 --> 01:28:57,840 Speaker 2: Oh is that the movie? Is that the one where 1932 01:28:57,880 --> 01:29:00,680 Speaker 2: he goes with the motorcycle right up to the killed. 1933 01:29:01,960 --> 01:29:02,120 Speaker 10: Man. 1934 01:29:02,280 --> 01:29:04,400 Speaker 2: I tell you what, I see that Sometimes I have 1935 01:29:04,479 --> 01:29:06,400 Speaker 2: to look up in the studio just and because we've 1936 01:29:06,520 --> 01:29:08,360 Speaker 2: we've got the sky on here, and they run that 1937 01:29:08,479 --> 01:29:10,920 Speaker 2: trailer a lot, and it makes it immediately makes me 1938 01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:13,280 Speaker 2: feel stressed out too much. For him, I'm like, I 1939 01:29:13,360 --> 01:29:15,200 Speaker 2: see why he got the Navy honor, because that's a 1940 01:29:15,240 --> 01:29:18,640 Speaker 2: pretty cool stunt to Paul. Now it's Christmas time, right, 1941 01:29:18,680 --> 01:29:21,080 Speaker 2: so this is this is basically I think, apart from 1942 01:29:21,680 --> 01:29:24,120 Speaker 2: you know, people who are still trying to rescue their 1943 01:29:24,160 --> 01:29:28,519 Speaker 2: careers and organizations, most of us are going to knock 1944 01:29:28,520 --> 01:29:30,719 Speaker 2: off today, aren't we.
