Speaker 1: Live from the Export Beer Gudin's studio and brought to you,
Speaker 1: as always by export Oltra, the beer for here. This
Speaker 1: is the Agenda Podcast for your Friday, the twenty sixth
Speaker 1: of July.
Speaker 2: The Agenda Podcast, the home of Sporting Nonsense and clap Trap,
Speaker 2: brought to you by Next Sport a Culture Morning.
Speaker 1: Heath, great posture this morning.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sitting up after seeing the last video that
Speaker 3: went out from the last thing where I'm like hunched
Speaker 3: over like quasi modo about twenty five chins.
Speaker 1: We've said this before, just terrible lumbar support.
Speaker 4: These couches come on g lane terrible.
Speaker 3: These wouldn't be if you put this out on a burn,
Speaker 3: they wouldn't be picked up.
Speaker 1: It's like your offer smoker room because no one actually
Speaker 1: owns it. It's always just in the shittiest state. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because no one's ever going to take Ownershi'll be like,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna fix it. What we all do is sit
Speaker 1: on this couch and be like, fuck, there's uncomfortable, and
Speaker 1: then none of us go out do anything about it.
Speaker 3: Make Michael Boggs, the CEO of and said me do
Speaker 3: five podcasts a week on these couches.
Speaker 4: The next thing, you know.
Speaker 3: You'd find a wonderful studio with a cafe environment.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think of Simmy Brown had to take the
Speaker 1: bus to work. All of our roads will be fixed,
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what though.
Speaker 3: Auckland Transport, you know they are always bus and cycle lane.
Speaker 3: Seen the size of the car park. All those assholes
Speaker 3: are driving to work, are they?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Oh my god, all of those assoles the thing and
Speaker 3: get rid of your car park and then come to
Speaker 3: me and tell me to get rid of my car.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right, all of the because they've revent the
Speaker 1: whole bus system. You jump in your bus, great, then
Speaker 1: you just sit. They don't have bus lanes, so you're
Speaker 1: just sitting in the same traffic you would have been
Speaker 1: in your own car, or standing more often than.
Speaker 4: Standing in your own filth.
Speaker 1: Every other country figured out trains over one hundred years ago.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well we did have light rail, didn't we. We
Speaker 3: had the bloody trams, but then they took them out bloody.
Speaker 1: It's hey, I've got a little bit of advice that
Speaker 1: I'd like to ask of you today. Oh yes, I
Speaker 1: am commentating the Warriors tonight at eight pm.
Speaker 4: Ah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's on a Friday, payday, Friday two. Yeah, a
Speaker 1: bit of excitement around the office, shit beers at lunchtime.
Speaker 1: Last week I tried and failed to go home at lunchtime,
Speaker 1: and then I'm back in for the commentary.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well you didn't make it home, or.
Speaker 1: I made it home, but way too late. I got
Speaker 1: home at about seven, yeah, right, and then I was
Speaker 1: back in at nine.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's difficult, and.
Speaker 1: Summer religion that I was still drunk on the commentary.
Speaker 1: I tony those But how do you play it? You're
Speaker 1: a veteran of many commentaries.
Speaker 3: Oh god, it's the hardest thing in professional commentating. Is
Speaker 3: a Friday, especially Friday, much harder than a Saturday, much harder.
Speaker 3: And just the eight o'clock kick off, it just makes
Speaker 3: it that a little bit harder because you could probably
Speaker 3: pack yourself to keep it together till seven.
Speaker 1: You know when I turned into a pumpkin at around seven.
Speaker 4: Although I tell you what.
Speaker 3: Last week, that game, the Fiji and All Blacks game, Yeah,
Speaker 3: that really got me because it was mid afternoon. Oh yeah,
Speaker 3: and then I had a few drinks with it, and
Speaker 3: then I was so confused because I figured it was
Speaker 3: the middle of the night. But then I was going
Speaker 3: out for dinner with some people and I was middle
Speaker 3: of the night, Matt, and they were sort of early afternoon.
Speaker 3: Just just got showered and putting some nice clothes on
Speaker 3: and went out for dinner.
Speaker 1: This is the problem.
Speaker 4: I was turning that restaurant like a nightclub.
Speaker 1: I know. Yeah, well this is what happened last week
Speaker 1: because the game was at ten. You know, on a Friday,
Speaker 1: I show up a stagnoom and I for a folk
Speaker 1: scale commentary.
Speaker 3: Well, I would say stick to your I think stick
Speaker 3: to your exports. Yeah, you know, I'd stay away from
Speaker 3: the top shelf and I'd definitely stay away from the
Speaker 3: veno for sure.
Speaker 1: Yeah oh yeah, because I was getting into the six percenters.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I think you've just got to no dinner,
Speaker 1: go about your work.
Speaker 4: But the problem is all your rules through out the window.
Speaker 4: This is the problem.
Speaker 3: You have a rule that you go Like when I
Speaker 3: was going to the rugby last week, I was like,
Speaker 3: I'll just have one, but then one made me want
Speaker 3: to have two, and you know, you have a drink,
Speaker 3: then the drink has you next. You know, I'm not
Speaker 3: the person I was that didn't want to drink. I'm
Speaker 3: now a totally different person now that wants to drink.
Speaker 3: You're now talking to mister Hyde. Yeah, it's not the
Speaker 3: same thing. I want someone the active wants to ruin
Speaker 3: my life for a joke. That's rather than trying to
Speaker 3: make things better.
Speaker 1: It's exactly what happened to me last week because I
Speaker 1: was like, right, I'm going to go home after this beer.
Speaker 1: I'm going to go home after this beer. I'm going
Speaker 1: to go home after this beer. And then I was like,
Speaker 1: you know what, I've knocked off for the day anyway,
Speaker 1: so I don't have to go home. I don't want.
Speaker 1: I deserve it.
Speaker 4: I work hard. I deserve this.
Speaker 3: The other thing is, you know, because mainly me trying
Speaker 3: to drink, this is just me telling it to pers
Speaker 3: serving me.
Speaker 4: I'll say just one more.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm just always just saying just one more, Like
Speaker 3: I don't care how many at the bar.
Speaker 4: Then it's just one more. It's like they are just.
Speaker 3: One more, just one more, just one more, they don't
Speaker 3: care's just order the drink.
Speaker 4: You know, you're talking to yourself with that one more.
Speaker 1: I had Lawrence from the office sitting next to me
Speaker 1: the whole afternoon to spin light. So when you gone
Speaker 1: home after this on You said that five years ago.
Speaker 4: But I listened to your commentary you were you were fine,
Speaker 4: Thank you.
Speaker 1: I like to do it as well.
Speaker 3: I didn't know that it didn't strike me. I mean,
Speaker 3: you were a little bit deflated at the end, but
Speaker 3: there was probably you know, that.
Speaker 1: Was about part of the course. Yeah, I would say
Speaker 1: to anyone listening, you know how it's so unsettling to
Speaker 1: hear the sound of your own voice recorded. Yeah, it
Speaker 1: never goes away, and broadcasting, by the way, it's so
Speaker 1: much worse to hear yourself wasted. Oh god, and it is.
Speaker 1: It is the punishment you need. I paid my penance
Speaker 1: on Monday morning because I had to clip a few
Speaker 1: videos out of the commentary. And I just sit there.
Speaker 3: You can tell, oh boy, can you do? And you
Speaker 3: can sniff your own bullshit like no one else can.
Speaker 3: And you you put on pretense when you've been drinking.
Speaker 3: You cand of get a bit of a not you me, No,
Speaker 3: me too. Yeah, but I get this kind of voice,
Speaker 3: and I'm making these jokes and I think I'm all that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I'm all that more than normal. My
Speaker 1: confidence made is full. Yeah, I'm trying jokes that don't land. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was mentioned on the on the text, and thanks
Speaker 1: to all of you who sent those through.
Speaker 3: It's great to have the support when you're in it
Speaker 3: in a difficult time, having drunk all afternoon and trying
Speaker 3: to do a commentary.
Speaker 4: But yeah, look, tell you what the question you asked me.
Speaker 3: I've been working on it my whole life and I've
Speaker 3: never managed to quite work out how you handle that commentary.
Speaker 4: And I'll tell you what.
Speaker 3: To be fair, we're not getting a great example from
Speaker 3: the top and the acc because absolutely not. G Lane
Speaker 3: will often come in an absolute steam train and commit
Speaker 3: horror intoce atrocities on the air.
Speaker 1: There'll be some There'll be some afternoons where you know,
Speaker 1: you will be at the bar having a having a
Speaker 1: beer on a Friday afternoon and I'll turn the loone
Speaker 1: and just be like, jeez, made, I've got to commentate.
Speaker 1: I might, I might bounce it. I guess Look, I
Speaker 1: think your only way through is just a drink through
Speaker 1: into the commentary that's top down. So yeah, okay, I'm
Speaker 1: going to play I think a few waders, a bit
Speaker 1: of a feed.
Speaker 3: She'll be right. Yeah, you'll tune into that commentary to
Speaker 3: find out if the case assa, what will be will be?
Speaker 3: You know, you know you're in the Yeah, you're on
Speaker 3: the tides of you know that. You just go with
Speaker 3: the time.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, just don't fight it, don't swim against the universt.
Speaker 1: We can't. Yeah, you can't change the ways. You can
Speaker 1: only choose which ones to ride. That's right, Yeah, towers them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I wanted another bit of advice. I wanted to ask
Speaker 1: you or get your take on as changing room etiquette,
Speaker 1: because you can probably tell you could probably even hear it.
Speaker 1: I've been going to the gym quite a lot lately. Yeah, Mills. Yeah,
Speaker 1: go over to Lis Mills. I am quite aware when
Speaker 1: I walk into that gym that I am the least
Speaker 1: attractive person in there every time I walk in. It's
Speaker 1: one of those hot people gyms, right, I got no
Speaker 1: right to be there. But it's also just across the
Speaker 1: road from work, so I'm like, yeah, I kind of
Speaker 1: go to a middle aged gym, so that. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: then I also think if I go there for long enough,
Speaker 1: then I will become a hot person.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, they're just people that have been there
Speaker 4: longer than you have.
Speaker 1: That's right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, at one stage the other gym.
Speaker 3: Yeah that's right, you're the walking before photo for all
Speaker 3: the after photos.
Speaker 1: A big time. But anyway, so when over there went
Speaker 1: pretty hard since some pber's it's not about that. Came
Speaker 1: back and I shower here at work. There are the
Speaker 1: situation at work is there are about fifteen showers. I
Speaker 1: don't know if you've ever been into these changing rooms
Speaker 1: I have. There's like fifteen showers, but the area to
Speaker 1: get changed is so small.
Speaker 4: Within the shower.
Speaker 1: No, well yes, but then also our oh yea yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you can only fit about three people and yeah right yeah,
Speaker 1: so you know, I've had an awkward interaction with one
Speaker 1: of the guys from the Herald where we held hands
Speaker 1: in our andies at one point. Yeah, that's not getting changed.
Speaker 1: But there is a guy that goes down there and
Speaker 1: he is full stark naked. He goes full naked, and
Speaker 1: I just wanted to know what is the etiquette around
Speaker 1: going nude in a shared locker room because this is
Speaker 1: a building that has about five different companies in it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we don't know each other. Like if it's a sports team,
Speaker 1: I get it, but this guy is he'll walk in
Speaker 1: get full nude and then sort of duck around, fire
Speaker 1: off a text, organize his clothes. Then he'll go and
Speaker 1: have a shower. This is all full nude. By the way,
Speaker 1: he'll have a yarn with you, he'll look you in
Speaker 1: the eye, stuck out, and then he goes running. Hey
Speaker 1: is he running? Oh god, I've sort of repressed it.
Speaker 1: I'm sure he's not giving him a great account of himself.
Speaker 1: He's just biked into work.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, So I haven't I respect that.
Speaker 3: I mean, if someone's engineering a situation so they can
Speaker 3: be nude to show off what they've got, I don't
Speaker 3: respect that. But someone that's running like two testes and
Speaker 3: a split testing on top and there's still nude, I'm.
Speaker 1: Like, you're restricting.
Speaker 3: Well, I just respect that because it's like you you're
Speaker 3: being nude because it's more practical. It's not about sort
Speaker 3: of you know, you know, yeah, you're not showing off,
Speaker 3: you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah. But the thing that really gets with it is
Speaker 1: when he gets out of the shower. So he's obviously
Speaker 1: in the shower, he's drying himself. Then he comes out
Speaker 1: and he's holding the towel in his hand and he
Speaker 1: walks out nude, it would be easier to wrap it around, yeah,
Speaker 1: your waist, even your shoulders. So at that point, I'm
Speaker 1: like he's making a point here. He's like, yeah, it
Speaker 1: would be easier for me. I'm gonna make it harder
Speaker 1: on myself. Yeah, just so I can walk out here.
Speaker 3: Yeah, essentially, because I just got to the gym called
Speaker 3: body Tech, and it was very pro nudity. It seemed
Speaker 3: like dudes would be like shaving and they'll be fletely nude,
Speaker 3: you know, like you know, they'll be there, they'll do
Speaker 3: all the ablutions in the nude and get everything they
Speaker 3: need to do in the nude, and then then get
Speaker 3: dressed afterwards. And I started to feel like I was
Speaker 3: the bad guy because I'd be wearing a towel. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you know, like, like, what's wrong with me? I'm you know,
Speaker 3: am I being judgmental of these people?
Speaker 6: You know?
Speaker 4: What am my? What am I doings? So I don't know, but.
Speaker 3: I think I think you're allowed to I think it's
Speaker 3: the I think you're allowed to be nude.
Speaker 1: I think you are.
Speaker 4: I think and it's a changing room situation.
Speaker 3: You're allowed to be nude, I mean, but you're also
Speaker 3: allowed not to be nude.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it goes both ways.
Speaker 4: I just both ways.
Speaker 1: But the biggest problem that I have obviously the walking
Speaker 1: out of the shower holding the towel. That's egregious. But
Speaker 1: then I'm now getting changed next to my man and
Speaker 1: we are like, honestly, we've got about it would be
Speaker 1: like a four square meter area, yeah, change, There'll be
Speaker 1: three or four dudes in there, you know, and at
Speaker 1: that point we're touching buttocks.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, and I don't want that. Yeah, No, that
Speaker 4: is interesting.
Speaker 3: I don't know what the ediquette is and it's going
Speaker 3: to be it's getting beaten out. I think definitely people
Speaker 3: are getting less nude at gym's. I think nudity is
Speaker 3: going away a lot quicker. I know that people that
Speaker 3: have been to boarding school have a very different view
Speaker 3: of it. It's although you were boarding stol but yeah,
Speaker 3: and you're not necessarily going as neud as you did
Speaker 3: at boarding school.
Speaker 1: Well, but if I was with the boarding school guys,
Speaker 1: that's a different thing. Yeah, because it's.
Speaker 3: A received you know that the conditions are agreed agreed upon.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and there's a bond with those the same
Speaker 1: with the rugby team. Fine with that, I just had
Speaker 1: a thought, like different thought.
Speaker 3: I was at the Gymmy stands like, I keep going
Speaker 3: home and showing at home what am I doing?
Speaker 4: Shout the gym free, hot water, free, soap, yeap? What
Speaker 4: am I doing?
Speaker 3: I love about one hundred meters from my gym, and
Speaker 3: I'm walking out the door. Just need to have my
Speaker 3: clothes in a bag and use the facilities I'm paying for.
Speaker 1: What I would say is make sure if you're doing that,
Speaker 1: that you're washing your towel in between workouts, because I've
Speaker 1: just become aware that I probably I actually can't remember
Speaker 1: the last time I washed my gym towel. Yeah, it
Speaker 1: might not have been this calendar year. And I've only
Speaker 1: become aware of that because I've broken out in a
Speaker 1: rash this week and I'm like, is it because I
Speaker 1: keep putting my towel on the floor of a sheer
Speaker 1: bathroom and then drawing myself with it the next day? Probably?
Speaker 4: Probably it's Probably it probably is. So that's just a
Speaker 4: high gien PSA.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think I think if you're in a
Speaker 1: group where you're like a rugby team, boarding school, whatever,
Speaker 1: you know, the people, Yeah, I'm okay with that. If
Speaker 1: it's even within the same company. I'm kind of okay
Speaker 1: with that if you just straight up don't know each other.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, no, I think you might. I think you
Speaker 3: might have a point there, But are you going to
Speaker 3: say anything? God, no, put your pants on, mate, I
Speaker 3: didn't you want to talk? The other day, I was
Speaker 3: sitting down and he said, Matte, how you going? And
Speaker 3: I was sitting down, He's standing up. I was like,
Speaker 3: we're not doing this, man, I'm Eige level here.
Speaker 1: Oh that's good. So thank you very much for your
Speaker 1: I'm sure some people have some feelings on this. They
Speaker 1: send them through in your and your voice smails. We're
Speaker 1: going to take a quick break. When we come back,
Speaker 1: I've got a heated debate. I'd like to also run
Speaker 1: past you, so quick break will be right back. But
Speaker 1: just before we do, Helenstein's VP, we want to hook
Speaker 1: you up with an exclusive opportunity to win VIP Warriors Experience.
Speaker 1: You'll score tickets, cash money, food beverages, vouchers to be

Speaker 1: He's done like four acls or something. He finally got
Speaker 1: to go to the Olympics. And now they're out.
Speaker 4: I mean they smashed South Africa and pool play and then.
Speaker 3: Just just didn't fire. And the fire they looked so
Speaker 3: freaking good. What's that guy Moses Moses Leo? Oh yeah,
Speaker 3: god he's got some speed. Yeah, no they did. It's
Speaker 3: just I mean that's how sports goes. Yeah, and especially sevens.
Speaker 3: I think sevens is volatile. Is volatile. You know, you
Speaker 3: get the break, you get, you get an overlap, you know,
Speaker 3: you run a couple of length of the fields and
Speaker 3: intercept the teach. When you have rugby, Yeah, it is
Speaker 3: anyone could beat anyone. Yeah, but I mean I feel bad.
Speaker 3: Analysis I came into my radio show, and I said
Speaker 3: the sevens against South Africa, we are going to win
Speaker 3: the goal we were, yeah, we look, We've.
Speaker 4: Never looked so good. And the end.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's how she goes. She's a cruel sport. But
Speaker 1: we have announced our flag bearers who are going to
Speaker 1: be Joe Ali and Aaron Gate, who I didn't realize
Speaker 1: cyclist cyclist, Yeah, I didn't realize. He was at the
Speaker 1: twenty twelve Olympic Games. Wow, bronze middleist there. Yeah. Wow,
Speaker 1: she's most decorated Commonwealth athlete as well. And then Jolie
Speaker 1: is the sailor as well. She was at the twenty
Speaker 1: twelve Olympics too, So two very decorated athletes in their
Speaker 1: own right. We're talking yesterday on the podcast that Lebron
Speaker 1: James has been anointed the flag bearer for the US.
Speaker 1: Oh yes, we're like, we just give him our flag too,
Speaker 1: and we'll tell uzbiker stant Hey, we'll swap and we'll
Speaker 1: just draft off the back of the US. He has
Speaker 1: been you know, because they the basketball team, they select
Speaker 1: all of these amazing players and every player is like
Speaker 1: on the superstar of this on the go to guy.
Speaker 1: But when it comes down to it and they need
Speaker 1: to win. Lebron James rattled off eleven points to save
Speaker 1: a win the other day. And he's forty years old,
Speaker 1: he's still by far the best player on that team,
Speaker 1: and you find out it nutcrunch time. But all of
Speaker 1: these memes have now started coming out about how he's
Speaker 1: the greatest basketball player of all time, blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: I saw a tweet that said he is arguably the
Speaker 1: greatest American of all time. Right, someone said I've got
Speaker 1: him over ab blinken.
Speaker 3: Well, Lebron does a bit of charity work, doesn't He's
Speaker 3: he's got he's got a He's got to be the
Speaker 3: greatest full time. You need to both be excel at
Speaker 3: what you're doing but also excel as a human being,
Speaker 3: don't you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and yeah he does. He's set up schools in
Speaker 1: his hometown and things like that. He donates a lot
Speaker 1: of money to charity. But just thinking of like who's
Speaker 1: the greatest of all time? The fact that they've got
Speaker 1: him over a blinket, it made me think, what's in
Speaker 1: New Zealand equivalent? Like would you have Jonah over Edmund Hillary? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Oh that yeah, Well that's a good, good comparison. Isn't
Speaker 3: it as differ a good comparison like who is the
Speaker 3: greatest New Zealander of all times? Have you guys ever
Speaker 3: done that? On the Mett and Jerry Show. No, I
Speaker 3: haven't actually, but it's a difficult one to to work out.
Speaker 4: I mean, what have you done? The greatest New Zealander
Speaker 4: of all time?
Speaker 3: Might be just a community leader that has just done
Speaker 3: a whole lot of stuff quietly in the background and
Speaker 3: changed in millionaires people's lives.
Speaker 1: It might be I don't know, some around Butterman.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it might be just someone that's running a community
Speaker 3: boxing gym or something and he's changed a million people's
Speaker 3: lives just quietly with a butterfly effect.
Speaker 1: Man petech out and we stalkland. What about like Ernest Rutherford?
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean I don't know, like he did
Speaker 3: split the Adam, and the splitting the Adam, you know,
Speaker 3: fired up Oppenheimer and his mates and now now we
Speaker 3: were at so there was some sliding doors there if
Speaker 3: he hadn't done that. Although I interviewed this guy, he's
Speaker 3: a very famous Brian Cox, famous UK physicist, and he
Speaker 3: visited you know, he's from Manchester University where Brutherford went
Speaker 3: to and he said, you run a geig account over
Speaker 3: Rutherford's desk.
Speaker 4: It's still still because because back then they didn't really.
Speaker 3: Know what they were doing, so they keep his memorial
Speaker 3: desk all all all sealed off because there was so
Speaker 3: much radiation operating around that guy.
Speaker 1: There was a lot. There's a lot of those stories
Speaker 1: about girls using the stuff as nail polish and like
Speaker 1: lip gloss in that. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Mercury chasing quicksilver they called it, chasing it around
Speaker 3: the table for fun.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but yeah, I don't know who. I feel
Speaker 1: like there's reeks of another bracket showdown where we put
Speaker 1: all of the like sixty four New Zealanders.
Speaker 4: Shit is a hard one.
Speaker 1: Keith versus Harold?
Speaker 3: Is it someone like Willi Apiata because you know Charlie Upham,
Speaker 3: Charlie Upham, you know, great heroism, Yeah yeah, and then
Speaker 3: humble when they get home.
Speaker 1: Thingy verse props. Boy, Yeah, you know, the Harold versus
Speaker 1: Constable Keith. There'd be so many good grudge matches that
Speaker 1: you could have. Lundy v. Bain obviously being there as well.
Speaker 3: Yeah, anyone going up against Lundy or Baine would hope
Speaker 3: to win their round if you've got Sir Edmund Hillary
Speaker 3: up against Lundy, Yeah, and Lundy goes through to the
Speaker 3: next round, he would though, I acc people are voting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right, that's the problem Jake the muss Although
Speaker 1: then do you have a problem where Jake the Musk
Speaker 1: could conceivably come up against Queen b Beatrice Farmina? Is
Speaker 1: that a problem?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Yeah, so Steven Adams, Yes, Stephen vs. Valerie?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think this this wrenks of a bit of
Speaker 1: a bracket for the SEC, doesn't It's good?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Who I think Steven Adams versus Ernest Rutherford? You like
Speaker 3: trying to work it out, like, how do we compare
Speaker 3: these two? How many rebounds to Yeah? What was any
Speaker 3: double doubles did mness Rutherford career earnings? Steven Adams is
Speaker 3: up over one hundred million US now chances of completely
Speaker 3: setting off a chain of events that destroy the entire
Speaker 3: planet Rutherford, He's got He's got you there.
Speaker 1: He's got them hands down. Yeah. I think that we
Speaker 1: could compile a good list of some of the best.
Speaker 1: We even sat down on the office man Joe Jury
Speaker 1: this morning and just blast of a couple out there.
Speaker 1: Jason Gunn versus Party Far Away.

Speaker 1: These are Toughern's, Richie d C you know, Hills Bears
Speaker 1: versus Mike McRoberts, the Nick Minute Guy versus Doctor Ashley Bloomfield. Like,
Speaker 1: there's a lot out there, and I think I think
Speaker 1: we need to put this put together a bracket and
Speaker 1: then we'll vote down to find out who's the greatest
Speaker 1: New Zealander of all time?
Speaker 3: What was the whale thing many years ago? The whale
Speaker 3: on the beach thing? Who did that? It was the dolphin? Yeah,
Speaker 3: I can't remember what it was. There was the otter
Speaker 3: that escaped, ye Jin the ottit? Yeah, I think Jim
Speaker 3: the Otter versus Shriek the sheep. I mean we moving
Speaker 3: into the animal kingdom.
Speaker 1: There Trick the sheep versus Dolly the sheep, the first
Speaker 1: cloned sheep from New Zealand as well. Yeah, the Canterbury
Speaker 1: panther versus the Hearst eagle versus the Fiordland moose. You know,
Speaker 1: we're getting into cryptosology this. Yeah, but still but I think, yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: all right, I'll work across the weekend. If this has
Speaker 1: triggered anything in New dm us send us in a voicemail.
Speaker 1: We'll put this bracket together, start doing it next week.
Speaker 1: We are in a roundabout way still talking about the Olympics,
Speaker 1: the dirty cheating Canucks. They beat us. Yeah this morning
Speaker 1: two one. Yeah, so the drone worked.
Speaker 3: I was thinking about this, so I could fly a
Speaker 3: drone over Richard Carhoi's house. But it wouldn't tell me
Speaker 3: anything about being really good looking.
Speaker 7: And I think that was the same thing that the
Speaker 7: Canadians are doing. There's nothing that the New Zealanders could
Speaker 7: teach us about football, if you know what I mean.
Speaker 7: It's like there was no information there they could take out.
Speaker 3: Because it's our strategy as nine at the back, booted
Speaker 3: as far away as we can get it to the
Speaker 3: Koli boot it down the field and hope it doesn't
Speaker 3: come back for a couple of minutes.
Speaker 1: I tell you what the biggest fuck you move from
Speaker 1: our team would be is to film their training and
Speaker 1: send it to Canada. There you go. You don't have
Speaker 1: to spied us everything we're about to do and then win.
Speaker 1: Unfortunately we lost, So yeah, that's obviously.
Speaker 3: Well were they won the gold medal last time. Everly ranked,
Speaker 3: we're like right down the bottom.
Speaker 1: So it turns out crime pace.
Speaker 3: But you don't expect that from the Canadians A to
Speaker 3: put up their hands as the first story of the Olympics.
Speaker 3: Next cheats, like if you were running the sweep steak
Speaker 3: on that. I mean, Canada being outed as treats with
Speaker 3: cheats was low on the low on the chances.
Speaker 1: Did not have that on my bingo card A Russia
Speaker 1: even at this Olympics probably not there'll.
Speaker 4: Be Russians there, but IOC yeah whatever he is.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so yeah, a bit disappointing for that, but I
Speaker 1: don't think anyone expected us to win that one. Anyway.
Speaker 1: We're gonna take one more quick breaks before we do.
Speaker 1: The Snacker Chaneesy sports scholarship is really starting to heat up.
Speaker 1: G Lane is meeting people and parking lots across the
Speaker 1: country to dish out the scholarship. So if you want
Speaker 1: to be the next one, text chip to three two
Speaker 1: three six to win the Snacker Changey Sports Scholarship quick
Speaker 1: break and we will be back with yours please, yours please.
Speaker 2: Brought you by Leader Home of.
Speaker 8: The LA.
Speaker 1: Just the five to get through today. The other day
Speaker 1: Heath we did twelve and I think we decided collectively
Speaker 1: that's too many, that there's too many, a bit of discretion.
Speaker 1: Today we've only got the five. First one here call
Speaker 1: it yours please. Jeez.
Speaker 6: Sorry, I don't know what happened there. I think the
Speaker 6: iHeart radio music just started playing. Anyway, feeling pretty rubbish,
Speaker 6: put on the bloody the acec agenda and the first
Speaker 6: thing that comes up is Pugo eff Trainer. I was like,
Speaker 6: that's fucking right, Senor brought back the good stuff. What
Speaker 6: a champion. I know, I know we're all games tomorrow morning,
Speaker 6: so I think funk that shuits back all right? And
Speaker 6: fuck South Canterbury.
Speaker 4: It's so good that the cold rex. Oh my god.
Speaker 3: Although oh yeah, I was back on a lot on
Speaker 3: the day before John Key bandatt and then now it's
Speaker 3: back and the only problem is it is it's selling
Speaker 3: out your future. You don't get any better when you're
Speaker 3: on the pseudo of for drink, you know what I mean,
Speaker 3: kicking it down the road, kicking down there. It gives
Speaker 3: you the energy and clears you up enough to get
Speaker 3: through that day, but you will have to spend that
Speaker 3: day getting sick at some point, you know, like if
Speaker 3: you've got a Friday you have to get through, then
Speaker 3: this Saturday is going to be that that Friday to
Speaker 3: out of the sickness.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: It's like it's a it's a delay. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 3: it's like if you took a line of cocaine, it'll
Speaker 3: get you through the night and keep you awake if
Speaker 3: you're tired, but you will you will be tired again
Speaker 3: or more so afterwards.
Speaker 1: All like our drinking is borrowing all of tomorrow's happiness. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's exactly what it is.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you want to feel really really happy right now
Speaker 3: and not care about any of your problems. You can
Speaker 3: have that, but they will all come back times ten tomorrow,
Speaker 3: That's right. All like trying to drink you out of
Speaker 3: a hangover again. You're just kicking it.
Speaker 1: Down the road.
Speaker 3: Yeah, sometimes you just go I'm gonna and you know that.
Speaker 3: But final analogy.
Speaker 1: Would be anyone who's ever taken emmodium.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah that Yeah, that's just putting a finger
Speaker 3: in the dike that thought I was doing.
Speaker 1: But Lane's been on the sodo this week. That's always
Speaker 1: been fighting through not the coll here yours.
Speaker 5: Hey fellas, I know your sports are Jason and Jon's
Speaker 5: not a quick question. Why is there no Hoak frequencies
Speaker 5: in Queenstown anyway?
Speaker 3: It feels like you're doing some of Edmund from over
Speaker 3: at Radiohachi. Well, it's a lot of things. Frequencies cost
Speaker 3: a lot of money, and also Queenstown is a transient
Speaker 3: population of tourists coming through, so it's hard to do
Speaker 3: a lot of sales based around radio there. We do
Speaker 3: have a frequency in one Aca and you can get
Speaker 3: that sort of right over the Crown Range.
Speaker 4: You can get you can get us an arrow Town
Speaker 4: pretty much.
Speaker 3: But a lot of people listen on iHeartRadio was I
Speaker 3: was doing a vineyard tour a couple of weeks ago,
Speaker 3: and he was down there and went to the Gibson
Speaker 3: Valley and and this lovely lady came up and said
Speaker 3: her and here and a boyfriend listened on the iHeart
Speaker 3: radio big for so you know you can get it.
Speaker 1: You can get it. There are ways to get it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and get it. I always to find it. But there's
Speaker 1: also no frequency in South Canterbury. Ah, that's and so
Speaker 1: when I first moved to Auckland and got a job
Speaker 1: at Radio Hodaki, my mom thought I was working for
Speaker 1: a EWE station. She'd never heard of it that broadcast
Speaker 1: down there. So yeah, but yeah, ridiculous that they cost money.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't see the millions of dollars you have
Speaker 3: to spend on an if M frequency is going to
Speaker 3: last much longer in the internet area. Yeah, where does
Speaker 3: that money go? Who gets that?
Speaker 4: Yeah? No one knows. The government goes into rocones.
Speaker 1: Another call here, yours please.
Speaker 8: Fellas Hey, just wondering what's the Tigers game Friday night
Speaker 8: being a sell out again? Has it ever been a
Speaker 8: team go through the whole NRL season selling out every
Speaker 8: single home game? Because I think there's only two more left,
Speaker 8: and fuck it would be good, wouldn't it sell them all?
Speaker 6: Out? Right?
Speaker 3: I mean, eals game's already pretty much. Yeah, close to sellout,
Speaker 3: so to nights one is He's right there.
Speaker 1: Two more so, we've had ten home games this season,
Speaker 1: sold them all out, Eels, and then I forget who
Speaker 1: the other one is. I expect that they'll both sell
Speaker 1: out as well. Oh Bulldogs is out? Yeah yeah, Bulldogs. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I expect that they will both sell out. And I
Speaker 1: did do a little bit of research for this podcast.
Speaker 1: That would be the first time that a team has
Speaker 1: ever sold out every one of their home games in
Speaker 1: the season, and so far we are on a fourteen
Speaker 1: game sellout streak dating back to last year.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because when we lost the last one, I set
Speaker 3: to his friends and I said, oh, Les's we'll be
Speaker 3: able to get tickets easier to go to the game.
Speaker 4: And she was like, it's sold out.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, well that's true because people and people. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's more than that. It's more than just the winning,
Speaker 3: isn't it now. Yeah, Well, this is the thing. There's
Speaker 3: always been.
Speaker 1: There's always been a massive Warriors faithful who even through
Speaker 1: the doldrums, they would come.
Speaker 4: It never really got below eight thousand people.
Speaker 1: That's right, Yeah, and even it'll be it'll be like
Speaker 1: a Sunday afternoon raining sideways, and you know there'd still
Speaker 1: be fifteen thousand people there to watch Sewn Johnson slough
Speaker 1: a conversion from the sideline to cut the deficit to forty.
Speaker 3: You know, well, someone told me that eight thousands about
Speaker 3: the break even point. If they get eight eight thousand
Speaker 3: at home throughout all the games, then then that's what
Speaker 3: they need to do to be working as a club.
Speaker 1: Should they be printing money?
Speaker 4: This printing money?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, so all you've got to do is
Speaker 3: have the cultural impact that people love going along and
Speaker 3: then you know, you know it's always going to sound
Speaker 3: I mean, but I mean, how many games in a
Speaker 3: row have we said it's the must win. It's actually
Speaker 3: Mass was making a good point on we've gotta be
Speaker 3: careful with the must win because there's always a mathematical way.
Speaker 4: You can get through.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think probably even if we lose against the Tigers,
Speaker 3: there's probably some way where some people above us ship
Speaker 3: the bed for the last five games. And you know
Speaker 3: what I mean, Yeah, I mean I don't know, I
Speaker 3: can't even work those out. No need, So we really
Speaker 3: really need to win this one. We really really needed
Speaker 3: to win it last week where we're really really really
Speaker 3: need to win it.
Speaker 1: I said it on the podcast used today. I think
Speaker 1: I just want us to win this one so we
Speaker 1: can just have one week we're leaving.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I've got a theory about this because our
Speaker 3: last is a bye. If we win, you know, to
Speaker 3: get through into the top eight. We're in quite a
Speaker 3: good unique position because you know, you end up in
Speaker 3: the arts end of the top eight, then you don't
Speaker 3: have that that that rest. So at least we'd have
Speaker 3: the rest game before we went into it. We're actually
Speaker 3: set up. We're actually set up for it for a
Speaker 3: run right through ten ten ten wins and we win
Speaker 3: the thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, you're right, because the advantage of coming like
Speaker 1: first or the second is that you then get a
Speaker 1: buy because the thing's quite convoluted. Yeah, and we basically
Speaker 1: get that anyway because of because of the buye.
Speaker 4: So is this the stars aligning dolphins?
Speaker 3: That's that's one that might be a difficult one anyway.
Speaker 1: But anyway, Yeah, this this would be a NRL first
Speaker 1: if we sold out every one of the home games.
Speaker 1: A call here yours please.
Speaker 9: Every Friday Cants. It's Mike Ox along here. I was
Speaker 9: just thinking about these halftime shows that we have that
Speaker 9: like the Warriors and all that, and how boring they
Speaker 9: are when it's just the same bullshit fucking light show.
Speaker 9: What if we were to implement Manya's halfback sports day
Speaker 9: the is for the halftime shows. I think they'll be
Speaker 9: quite thrilling for the audience and we can actually see
Speaker 9: if these games actually work or for the rules set. Anyways,
Speaker 9: unfucked South canabry thank you?
Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't know which one of them because a
Speaker 1: lot of them are like sports related, so it'll be
Speaker 1: like bringing a guy out of the stands to bowl
Speaker 1: the next over. Yeah, yeah, the next over, or turn
Speaker 1: the field sideways for soccer, or attach a hoop to
Speaker 1: the crossbar and rugby. I don't know that they would
Speaker 1: work as a as a halftime show. I think there's
Speaker 1: more changes to actual sports. But I did once in
Speaker 1: another life as the promost person for Hodaki. We got
Speaker 1: pitched from KFC. They wanted to promote their Crusher and
Speaker 1: they wanted to do a halftime show. I've got it.
Speaker 1: You run from one end of the field to the other.
Speaker 1: At halfway, Ruben Wiki's gonna crush a tackle you at
Speaker 1: the other end. You've got a sights that Judith crusher
Speaker 1: Collins and then and then whoever loses gets their car crushed.
Speaker 4: That's good.
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe that could be the half time Yeah, maybe
Speaker 3: that could. I mean, I love when there's a mascot race.
Speaker 3: That always gets me going be found a mascot race. Also,
Speaker 3: like when you have the people dressed up on the
Speaker 3: bag inflatable sumo. Yeah, costumes smashing each other.
Speaker 4: That's good.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't mind people in a zorb, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I don't mind as orb at all. I don't mind
Speaker 3: a race.
Speaker 1: As long as there's an opportunity for someone to humiliate themselves,
Speaker 1: we're generally happy enough with it.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So yeah, but I reckon that it's tough work as
Speaker 3: a person that's done the halftime shows as a radio host.
Speaker 3: Tough yecker out there. It's because for you, there's a
Speaker 3: huge amount of people there. But you just got to
Speaker 3: remember that no one gives a shit about no one's watching,
Speaker 3: no one's watching you, and no one cares. Everyone's off
Speaker 3: getting somebody to eat or thinking about or talking.
Speaker 1: And yeah, we had a I wasn't there for it,
Speaker 1: but we had a howler of a promo where the
Speaker 1: idea was a burger was going to be dropped from
Speaker 1: a drone, but Ben Hurley was seeing it. But for
Speaker 1: whatever reason, they couldn't fix the burger to the drone
Speaker 1: or the drone crashed or something.
Speaker 4: I feel like I was there for this, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: And so in the end Heurley, just thinking on his feet,
Speaker 1: just picked the burger up and threw it. Someone had
Speaker 1: to try and catch it. There was enough, there was
Speaker 1: another game. I was out. It was like a woman's
Speaker 1: tea twenty and they brought the worker keeper out at
Speaker 1: the change of innings to try and set the world
Speaker 1: record for the highest catch as well as an eaton Park.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the and it would fall so far away
Speaker 3: from her, it was swirling, yeah, and then it would
Speaker 3: just land ten meters away, and the m secret going,
Speaker 3: I'll give her one more try, and everyone in the crowds,
Speaker 3: oh god, because she had to run so far and
Speaker 3: then die because it was was someone hadn't.
Speaker 1: Counted in that, I know, when he hadn't tried it. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So it's like we're going to drop it from above
Speaker 1: Eden Park and it's like there's this howling gale. She
Speaker 1: can't she can't track this thing. The drone's not sitting
Speaker 1: still in the air. The height was the least of
Speaker 1: the problems. That was how far away it was for
Speaker 1: just humiliated. I wasn't here for that one as well.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was like, please stop, just please stop doing this.
Speaker 1: No more, no more. I reckon, we could come up
Speaker 1: with a good halftime show. We'll put our brains to it.
Speaker 1: I think we've got one more caller here, two.
Speaker 3: More flood the state, flood the stadium and go full
Speaker 3: gladiated with the ships.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh, I'd love that. Every April Folds they put
Speaker 1: out of an article that they're going to host the
Speaker 1: World Surfing leg at eating part.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it gets me, got me, It got me. Last
Speaker 3: year I was like, wow, they got a ship. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 3: but I mean I can kind of believe that because
Speaker 3: you have those artificial surf things. You know, it's in
Speaker 3: the realms of possibility. You know, there's a there's a
Speaker 3: wave pool in Mount Albert, you know.
Speaker 1: Why not? All right, that'll do us for today. We
Speaker 1: knocked this thing on the head. Keep an eye on
Speaker 1: this feed later on, we'll have the a SEC Sports
Speaker 1: book out as well. Enjoy weekend Heath and Price the
Speaker 1: next week you Tominoir and you know, up the Worst,
