Traveling with children is the topic, but the 82 00:03:48,093 --> 00:03:50,893 Speaker 3: story was about the Williams family. They walk the entire 83 00:03:50,933 --> 00:03:54,453 Speaker 3: length of New Zealand the tr Travel Trail. Rather a 84 00:03:54,453 --> 00:03:56,653 Speaker 3: lot of people listening would have done that. So mom 85 00:03:56,733 --> 00:03:59,773 Speaker 3: and dad, that's Andrew and Courtney, and there's four children 86 00:03:59,893 --> 00:04:03,453 Speaker 3: ranging from six to thirteen years old. Took them two 87 00:04:03,613 --> 00:04:06,773 Speaker 3: hundred and eighteen days. That's a massive journey with four kids. 88 00:04:06,893 --> 00:04:09,773 Speaker 2: Yeah, have you had an amazing family holiday and adventure? 89 00:04:09,853 --> 00:04:11,413 Speaker 2: Or is it better to leave the kids at home 90 00:04:11,453 --> 00:04:14,452 Speaker 2: when you're doing these epic traveler adventures and have more fun. 91 00:04:14,653 --> 00:04:17,533 Speaker 2: Leave them with grandma, leave them with rallies and head out, 92 00:04:18,013 --> 00:04:19,813 Speaker 2: because boy, that's a hell of a shift for the 93 00:04:19,853 --> 00:04:21,613 Speaker 2: six year old. You've got to say, I mean, good 94 00:04:21,613 --> 00:04:24,332 Speaker 2: on them, absolutely good on those parents. But I'd be 95 00:04:24,413 --> 00:04:25,613 Speaker 2: leaving the kids and over that one. 96 00:04:25,653 --> 00:04:27,973 Speaker 3: It's a lot of admin, isn't it. That's after three o'clock. 97 00:04:27,973 --> 00:04:30,973 Speaker 3: After two o'clock, the road le kiwis can't seem to follow. 98 00:04:30,973 --> 00:04:33,733 Speaker 3: So chances are you've come across the notorious right hand 99 00:04:33,813 --> 00:04:36,853 Speaker 3: lane hog. The driver who sticks in the right lane 100 00:04:36,893 --> 00:04:39,613 Speaker 3: going just below the speed limit, unaware or indifferent to 101 00:04:39,653 --> 00:04:42,973 Speaker 3: the cues of people behind them, getting absolutely irate. 102 00:04:43,813 --> 00:04:47,213 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, this is It's amazing that people are 103 00:04:47,213 --> 00:04:49,293 Speaker 2: still doing this, doesn't it? Isn't it the first thing 104 00:04:49,373 --> 00:04:53,013 Speaker 2: you learn that the far right has for going fast 105 00:04:53,093 --> 00:04:54,613 Speaker 2: and far right fast. 106 00:04:54,733 --> 00:04:56,093 Speaker 3: Yeah, it makes sense. 107 00:04:56,253 --> 00:04:58,013 Speaker 2: Yeah, But the people that just get in there and 108 00:04:58,013 --> 00:05:02,333 Speaker 2: they're traveling along eighty k potentially posting pictures themselves on TikTok, 109 00:05:02,373 --> 00:05:04,253 Speaker 2: I don't know what they're doing in there. It's right, 110 00:05:04,413 --> 00:05:04,693 Speaker 2: isn't it? 111 00:05:05,453 --> 00:05:06,493 Speaker 3: But I guess the why. 112 00:05:06,533 --> 00:05:09,373 Speaker 2: The question, though, is the big question as if you're 113 00:05:09,413 --> 00:05:11,493 Speaker 2: going a Hundi, If you're going hondy and that's the 114 00:05:11,533 --> 00:05:14,053 Speaker 2: speed limit, you're sitting in that lane going Hundi, then 115 00:05:14,293 --> 00:05:16,653 Speaker 2: how can anyone pass you? Because it's legal to go 116 00:05:16,693 --> 00:05:18,213 Speaker 2: over houndy in that lane. Well, we're going to open 117 00:05:18,253 --> 00:05:18,493 Speaker 2: that up. 118 00:05:18,533 --> 00:05:20,333 Speaker 3: But I don't know, mate, I don't know what makes 119 00:05:20,413 --> 00:05:23,493 Speaker 3: you the police officer on the road, just determining, making 120 00:05:23,533 --> 00:05:26,013 Speaker 3: sure that everybody's going the speed limited. If someone wants 121 00:05:26,013 --> 00:05:27,893 Speaker 3: to speed, who are you to say, I'm just going 122 00:05:27,973 --> 00:05:30,053 Speaker 3: to I'm just going to get in front of you. Anyway. 123 00:05:30,053 --> 00:05:32,693 Speaker 3: That is up to two o'clock is right now. This 124 00:05:32,813 --> 00:05:35,013 Speaker 3: is going to be a big chat. An article over 125 00:05:35,053 --> 00:05:38,493 Speaker 3: the weekend focused on comments from an Auckland fashion designer. 126 00:05:38,533 --> 00:05:41,693 Speaker 3: Her name is Carolyn mars So. She was highly critical 127 00:05:41,813 --> 00:05:46,093 Speaker 3: of Nicola Willis's choice of dress during the budget total disrespect. 128 00:05:46,213 --> 00:05:49,573 Speaker 3: She said in the article. Her crime Nicola Willis's is 129 00:05:49,613 --> 00:05:53,613 Speaker 3: that it wasn't a New Zealand design dress. So this after, 130 00:05:53,853 --> 00:05:58,533 Speaker 3: of course, journalist Andrea Vance calling Minister Willis and her 131 00:05:58,573 --> 00:06:01,813 Speaker 3: female colleagues the sea word, among other slurs in a 132 00:06:01,853 --> 00:06:07,333 Speaker 3: published article. It seems that woman are going for other women. 133 00:06:07,533 --> 00:06:09,653 Speaker 2: Yeah, Like, I believe if anyone should say anything they 134 00:06:09,693 --> 00:06:12,613 Speaker 2: want about anyone on them, a huge, hugely in favor 135 00:06:12,613 --> 00:06:14,973 Speaker 2: of free speech. And so you know, if that's what 136 00:06:15,293 --> 00:06:19,373 Speaker 2: she thinks, if that's what Catherine mar thinks, then she's 137 00:06:19,493 --> 00:06:21,733 Speaker 2: quite welcome to say it. But I also think you 138 00:06:21,733 --> 00:06:23,773 Speaker 2: need to point out when something it feels wrong, and 139 00:06:23,813 --> 00:06:26,653 Speaker 2: it definitely feels like hassling a female politician about what 140 00:06:26,693 --> 00:06:28,853 Speaker 2: she's wearing when you don't do the same thing to men. 141 00:06:29,533 --> 00:06:32,773 Speaker 2: Does feel a little bit weird and wrong. And it's 142 00:06:32,773 --> 00:06:35,213 Speaker 2: not men doing this, is it. I guarantee most men 143 00:06:35,213 --> 00:06:39,133 Speaker 2: didn't notice or even care what Nicola Willis was wearing 144 00:06:39,453 --> 00:06:42,413 Speaker 2: during her budget speech. And it reminds me, as I 145 00:06:42,493 --> 00:06:44,773 Speaker 2: say to you before. Tyler of a POSTO Saw and 146 00:06:44,813 --> 00:06:48,333 Speaker 2: a Woman wrote, it's so unfair. Men can wear the 147 00:06:48,333 --> 00:06:50,253 Speaker 2: same thing over and over again, but women have to 148 00:06:50,293 --> 00:06:53,533 Speaker 2: constantly change what they are wearing for each wedding and party. 149 00:06:53,813 --> 00:06:56,853 Speaker 2: And the first comment underneath this post was from a 150 00:06:56,893 --> 00:06:59,453 Speaker 2: man saying, I guarantee there isn't a single man out 151 00:06:59,493 --> 00:07:02,133 Speaker 2: there who cares or notices that you are wearing the 152 00:07:02,133 --> 00:07:04,773 Speaker 2: same thing over and over again. I mean this appears 153 00:07:04,813 --> 00:07:07,453 Speaker 2: to be a woman on woman thing, So that the 154 00:07:07,533 --> 00:07:10,933 Speaker 2: question is, is woman on woman misogyny a problem? Is 155 00:07:10,933 --> 00:07:13,893 Speaker 2: it as bad as normal misogyny? No man be his 156 00:07:13,973 --> 00:07:16,853 Speaker 2: normal misogyny would be man or woman misogyny or the 157 00:07:16,893 --> 00:07:20,453 Speaker 2: most talked about misogyny. I mean, we're always being told 158 00:07:20,453 --> 00:07:23,933 Speaker 2: that men a horrible misogynist. Do you care what female 159 00:07:23,933 --> 00:07:27,053 Speaker 2: politicians wear? Do they should? They have a different standard 160 00:07:27,373 --> 00:07:32,213 Speaker 2: to what male politicians wear? And do you think it's 161 00:07:32,453 --> 00:07:36,013 Speaker 2: something to male afternoon talk? My coaster should even be discussing. 162 00:07:36,093 --> 00:07:38,693 Speaker 3: Yeah, that is the big question. Give us a ring. 163 00:07:38,853 --> 00:07:43,413 Speaker 2: One hundred eighty ten eighty should be a nicely dangerous chat. 164 00:07:43,493 --> 00:07:44,933 Speaker 3: Yeah, I love to get into this with you. Oh, 165 00:07:45,013 --> 00:07:47,373 Speaker 3: eight hundred eighty ten eighty. Where do you sit on 166 00:07:47,453 --> 00:07:49,693 Speaker 3: this one? Nine two nine?

And this morning on Herold Now Nicola Willis 210 00:09:55,173 --> 00:09:57,413 Speaker 2: was on with Ryan Bridge and Harold Now enjoyed that 211 00:09:57,413 --> 00:10:01,252 Speaker 2: show this morning and new initiative. Ryan Bridge fantastic, isn't 212 00:10:01,293 --> 00:10:03,253 Speaker 2: he He's very good in front of the camera. The 213 00:10:03,252 --> 00:10:05,813 Speaker 2: camera loves Ryan Bridge. But he asked a question and 214 00:10:05,852 --> 00:10:08,733 Speaker 2: I think Nicola Willis didn't really hear exactly what he 215 00:10:08,773 --> 00:10:10,693 Speaker 2: was saying because he was kind of trying to support her. 216 00:10:10,933 --> 00:10:14,012 Speaker 2: But she came back like this. 217 00:10:17,573 --> 00:10:20,573 Speaker 3: We're going to come back to that audio. I can't 218 00:10:20,653 --> 00:10:22,253 Speaker 3: help but notice, and I know I'm not meant to 219 00:10:22,252 --> 00:10:24,613 Speaker 3: talk about this, but you know the dress that everyone 220 00:10:24,653 --> 00:10:26,693 Speaker 3: was talking about it the weekend, Are you wearing it again? 221 00:10:27,053 --> 00:10:29,253 Speaker 3: Because if you are, go for it girl. 222 00:10:29,533 --> 00:10:32,973 Speaker 6: Brian, you know what the nineteen fifties called and they 223 00:10:33,012 --> 00:10:35,372 Speaker 6: want your line of questioning that we've got more interesting 224 00:10:35,413 --> 00:10:36,732 Speaker 6: things to talk about than dresses. 225 00:10:36,732 --> 00:10:41,093 Speaker 3: Fair enough, fair enough, it is a nice one. And 226 00:10:41,653 --> 00:10:43,493 Speaker 3: from Nikolai, yeah, no, you feel for Ryan in that 227 00:10:43,573 --> 00:10:46,853 Speaker 3: instance because he was trying to show some girl. 228 00:10:47,453 --> 00:10:49,532 Speaker 2: He was trying to be an ally there, but no, 229 00:10:49,612 --> 00:10:52,012 Speaker 2: but fair enough what she said after the criticism. You 230 00:10:52,053 --> 00:10:54,693 Speaker 2: know the nineteen fifties once you quit your question back, 231 00:10:54,773 --> 00:10:58,732 Speaker 2: and the nineteen fifties probably wants someone a woman being 232 00:10:58,732 --> 00:11:00,653 Speaker 2: hassled for not wearing the right thing when she's doing 233 00:11:00,693 --> 00:11:03,492 Speaker 2: the budget. But the person that was doing that was 234 00:11:04,132 --> 00:11:07,372 Speaker 2: a woman who was a fashion designer, Carolyn Mark exactly. 235 00:11:07,372 --> 00:11:10,412 Speaker 3: Oh, eight hundred and eighty two is the number to call, Sarah. 236 00:11:10,693 --> 00:11:13,612 Speaker 3: What's your view on this? Do you think there is 237 00:11:14,333 --> 00:11:16,893 Speaker 3: misogynistic attitudes from woman versus women? 238 00:11:18,492 --> 00:11:24,492 Speaker 7: So, Hi, guys, yes, I do, and I think it's 239 00:11:25,293 --> 00:11:29,973 Speaker 7: absolutely unacceptable. I just want to start with the stuff 240 00:11:30,012 --> 00:11:35,772 Speaker 7: that's stuffed. The stuff has heralds, its own female owner, 241 00:11:35,973 --> 00:11:40,253 Speaker 7: as you know, a New Zealand leader, etc. So that's 242 00:11:40,252 --> 00:11:44,693 Speaker 7: Shneid Boucher or Bouchier. However she says her name, Andrea 243 00:11:44,973 --> 00:11:50,173 Speaker 7: Barnce worked for her. I think Shanaide Boucher should be 244 00:11:50,333 --> 00:11:54,693 Speaker 7: called out on this because what her staff member did 245 00:11:55,053 --> 00:11:58,333 Speaker 7: is pretty disgusting. That's what I'm saying as a female, 246 00:11:58,892 --> 00:12:02,653 Speaker 7: because I know with absolute certainty that no female who's 247 00:12:02,693 --> 00:12:06,133 Speaker 7: worked tirelessly hard to achieve in their careers. What the 248 00:12:06,213 --> 00:12:09,573 Speaker 7: career they've chosen, including the career of MP in New 249 00:12:09,653 --> 00:12:15,773 Speaker 7: Zealand's Parliament, deserves to be diminished and has their reputations 250 00:12:15,933 --> 00:12:21,453 Speaker 7: dragged into the mudlake with terms like sea word, girl boss, 251 00:12:21,693 --> 00:12:26,012 Speaker 7: hype squad, girl math, because does that then less us 252 00:12:26,053 --> 00:12:30,093 Speaker 7: say that SHANEI Bouscher is also the sea word, also 253 00:12:30,293 --> 00:12:33,173 Speaker 7: so hopeless at her job that she's a girl boss. 254 00:12:33,612 --> 00:12:36,653 Speaker 7: Her team of people are just a hype squad and 255 00:12:36,693 --> 00:12:40,093 Speaker 7: they probably bought the company for a dollar because they're 256 00:12:40,132 --> 00:12:43,812 Speaker 7: all just girl mathematicians. You know, it goes both ways, 257 00:12:44,372 --> 00:12:48,532 Speaker 7: and I don't think. I think what stuff SHINEI Bouscher 258 00:12:48,653 --> 00:12:52,573 Speaker 7: allowing her team to do that against other women. I 259 00:12:52,573 --> 00:12:54,693 Speaker 7: think it's an absolute disgrace. 260 00:12:55,293 --> 00:12:58,013 Speaker 2: So do you think it? Do you think it's worse 261 00:12:58,173 --> 00:13:00,973 Speaker 2: than male on female misogyny. 262 00:13:01,252 --> 00:13:06,253 Speaker 7: I've actually never seen males go that far, you know, 263 00:13:06,533 --> 00:13:10,813 Speaker 7: I think it because my problem here is comments like 264 00:13:10,852 --> 00:13:14,293 Speaker 7: that in private that's an individual's choice, But comments like 265 00:13:14,372 --> 00:13:18,012 Speaker 7: that deliberately placed in the public domain, where there's been 266 00:13:18,053 --> 00:13:20,293 Speaker 7: a lot of there will have been a lot of 267 00:13:20,372 --> 00:13:24,173 Speaker 7: discussion and debate internally. It's stuff with Shineid Buscher, who's 268 00:13:24,213 --> 00:13:29,252 Speaker 7: the owner of the place, the CEO, owner, director deciding 269 00:13:29,293 --> 00:13:31,933 Speaker 7: that she was going to do that and the mean 270 00:13:32,012 --> 00:13:36,413 Speaker 7: women so badly. That does not belong in the public domain. 271 00:13:36,732 --> 00:13:39,453 Speaker 7: I don't think. I think when comments like that are 272 00:13:39,492 --> 00:13:44,533 Speaker 7: public it's unhelpful to all women, unhelpful to all women 273 00:13:44,612 --> 00:13:47,453 Speaker 7: gaining the respects in their careers that they deserve, and 274 00:13:47,492 --> 00:13:48,813 Speaker 7: I think it's pretty hurtful. 275 00:13:49,413 --> 00:13:52,013 Speaker 2: What do you think about that these comments around what 276 00:13:52,132 --> 00:13:56,333 Speaker 2: Nikola Willis was wearing during her budget speech? Do you 277 00:13:56,413 --> 00:14:01,172 Speaker 2: think it is okay to comment on what a woman 278 00:14:01,213 --> 00:14:05,413 Speaker 2: wears or do you think that that crosses a line 279 00:14:05,492 --> 00:14:07,853 Speaker 2: and that what really should be being discussed is the 280 00:14:07,892 --> 00:14:09,772 Speaker 2: content of the speech. 281 00:14:11,533 --> 00:14:14,333 Speaker 7: It's one hundred percent crosses the line, and for the 282 00:14:14,372 --> 00:14:18,973 Speaker 7: same reason as those terms were used. So you know, 283 00:14:19,253 --> 00:14:22,172 Speaker 7: New Zealand women have worked hard over decades to change 284 00:14:22,173 --> 00:14:25,453 Speaker 7: the narrative around their roles so that we've got senior 285 00:14:25,453 --> 00:14:29,653 Speaker 7: women in business, health, education, science, technology, politics, you name it. 286 00:14:30,493 --> 00:14:34,453 Speaker 7: And I think for the decades of hard work to 287 00:14:34,573 --> 00:14:40,213 Speaker 7: be dragged back down into what dress they're wearing is 288 00:14:41,773 --> 00:14:46,533 Speaker 7: probably again it's I don't understand how other women can 289 00:14:46,573 --> 00:14:49,213 Speaker 7: do that to women who have worked so hard. 290 00:14:49,373 --> 00:14:51,493 Speaker 3: Yeah, Sarah, We've got a few more questions for you. 291 00:14:51,573 --> 00:14:53,333 Speaker 3: We're going to play some messages, but are you okay 292 00:14:53,373 --> 00:14:55,653 Speaker 3: to to stay with us and we'll come back to 293 00:14:55,653 --> 00:14:58,573 Speaker 3: you in a couple of minutes. Yes, thank you very much. 294 00:14:58,613 --> 00:15:00,533 Speaker 3: We're going to come back with Sarah very shortly. It 295 00:15:00,613 --> 00:15:03,813 Speaker 3: is twenty three past one. You're listening to Matt and Tyler. 296 00:15:08,573 --> 00:15:11,613 Speaker 8: Questions to the newspeakers, the mic asking. 297 00:15:11,253 --> 00:15:13,733 Speaker 2: Breakfast particular listeners. Well this how much are people going 298 00:15:13,773 --> 00:15:16,412 Speaker 2: to spend therefore? How much are they going to depreciate? Therefore? 299 00:15:16,413 --> 00:15:18,133 Speaker 2: How much are they not going to pay you tax? 300 00:15:18,213 --> 00:15:19,213 Speaker 7: Well, there's two parts to it. 301 00:15:19,213 --> 00:15:21,532 Speaker 6: There's those who are going to be making investments anyway, 302 00:15:21,653 --> 00:15:24,053 Speaker 6: so so then this policy means a bit more cash flow. 303 00:15:24,133 --> 00:15:26,853 Speaker 6: And the second thing is how many new investments get 304 00:15:26,893 --> 00:15:29,773 Speaker 6: brought forward. That's a bit harder to judge, but when 305 00:15:29,813 --> 00:15:31,973 Speaker 6: we look around the world, evidence is pretty clear that 306 00:15:32,053 --> 00:15:34,573 Speaker 6: people will make investments they wouldn't have otherwise made if 307 00:15:34,613 --> 00:15:37,733 Speaker 6: we over deliver on this, and it costs more because 308 00:15:37,773 --> 00:15:40,453 Speaker 6: more people are investing, I think the growth dividend will 309 00:15:40,453 --> 00:15:43,093 Speaker 6: be well worth it because that means figure jobs, more 310 00:15:43,173 --> 00:15:45,253 Speaker 6: pay more opportunities for New Zealanders. 311 00:15:45,413 --> 00:15:48,133 Speaker 2: Back tomorrow at six am, the mic hosking breakfast with 312 00:15:48,213 --> 00:15:50,373 Speaker 2: the rain drove of the lame newstalk ZB. 313 00:15:52,133 --> 00:15:55,693 Speaker 3: Very good afternoon to you. We're talking about misogyny women 314 00:15:55,973 --> 00:15:59,773 Speaker 3: versus women misogyny on two incidents. One was the very 315 00:15:59,813 --> 00:16:03,813 Speaker 3: publicized andry advanced column that called female ministers and government 316 00:16:03,973 --> 00:16:06,733 Speaker 3: sea word, girl bosses, hype squad, et cetera, et cetera. 317 00:16:06,933 --> 00:16:10,053 Speaker 3: But another one over the week end where a female 318 00:16:10,053 --> 00:16:12,932 Speaker 3: fashion designer was taking umberridge at what Nicola Willis was 319 00:16:12,933 --> 00:16:13,813 Speaker 3: wearing during budget Day. 320 00:16:13,853 --> 00:16:16,053 Speaker 2: Yeah, and the vast majority of people have said that 321 00:16:16,053 --> 00:16:18,333 Speaker 2: that wasn't you know on the text machine saying that 322 00:16:18,413 --> 00:16:21,532 Speaker 2: wasn't a great thing to do from Kathleen Carolyn Mass. 323 00:16:21,573 --> 00:16:23,653 Speaker 2: I've been saying a name on Carolyn marm. She's sure 324 00:16:23,693 --> 00:16:28,133 Speaker 2: she's pleased with getting a name. Executive We slightly hasler, 325 00:16:28,213 --> 00:16:30,533 Speaker 2: but this texture says, oh my god, I am a 326 00:16:30,573 --> 00:16:32,533 Speaker 2: woman and I don't get the fast. The fact we 327 00:16:32,573 --> 00:16:35,213 Speaker 2: are even talking about this is ridiculous. It wasn't about 328 00:16:35,253 --> 00:16:37,973 Speaker 2: an ugly dress, et cetera. It was about supporting New 329 00:16:38,053 --> 00:16:42,333 Speaker 2: Zealand diners designers for goodness sake. But what that person's 330 00:16:42,333 --> 00:16:44,532 Speaker 2: missing is how often have they pointed out what men 331 00:16:44,613 --> 00:16:49,293 Speaker 2: are wearing and expecting men and parliament to support New 332 00:16:49,413 --> 00:16:53,853 Speaker 2: Zealand designers. Yeah, you knows. As cross Presshup came out 333 00:16:53,893 --> 00:16:56,773 Speaker 2: and said recently he went through his suit what he 334 00:16:56,813 --> 00:17:01,533 Speaker 2: was wearing, and no one had ever asked him that. Okay, 335 00:17:01,573 --> 00:17:02,412 Speaker 2: we don't have that audio. 336 00:17:02,533 --> 00:17:05,373 Speaker 3: We'll come back. We'll come back with Chris Boship very shortly. 337 00:17:05,413 --> 00:17:07,133 Speaker 3: But let's go back to Sarah. Sarah, we were having 338 00:17:07,133 --> 00:17:11,053 Speaker 3: a great discussion with you before the break, and so 339 00:17:11,133 --> 00:17:15,533 Speaker 3: the question I had for you was, and you mentioned 340 00:17:15,533 --> 00:17:18,853 Speaker 3: both the column from Enery Advance but also this article 341 00:17:19,013 --> 00:17:22,293 Speaker 3: on the weekend, do you think it is getting more 342 00:17:22,413 --> 00:17:26,373 Speaker 3: prominent that there is women coming after other women? And 343 00:17:26,413 --> 00:17:28,853 Speaker 3: if it is getting more prominent, why why is it 344 00:17:28,933 --> 00:17:33,413 Speaker 3: because some women see other females as an easier target. 345 00:17:33,453 --> 00:17:35,533 Speaker 3: I just don't understand why that would be the case. 346 00:17:37,413 --> 00:17:42,573 Speaker 7: I think what we have is a group of very senior, 347 00:17:43,053 --> 00:17:46,733 Speaker 7: talented cabinet ministers who happen to be women, and whether 348 00:17:46,773 --> 00:17:51,453 Speaker 7: you agree with their politics or not, they've only got 349 00:17:51,493 --> 00:17:55,333 Speaker 7: there because they've done a lot of very hard yards 350 00:17:55,373 --> 00:17:57,733 Speaker 7: in their career to get there. And I think what 351 00:17:57,813 --> 00:18:00,213 Speaker 7: we have for people who don't agree with their politics 352 00:18:00,853 --> 00:18:05,693 Speaker 7: and have politicized their gender through the media, And so 353 00:18:05,733 --> 00:18:09,013 Speaker 7: you asked me before, do I think it's crossing the line? Absolutely, 354 00:18:09,053 --> 00:18:13,973 Speaker 7: I do, And unfortunately, I think what we've got people 355 00:18:14,493 --> 00:18:18,532 Speaker 7: I would actually call it harassment in bullying, and I 356 00:18:18,533 --> 00:18:21,293 Speaker 7: think if it were happening in a workplace, it would 357 00:18:21,333 --> 00:18:24,213 Speaker 7: be called bullying. So those if you think about those 358 00:18:24,253 --> 00:18:26,693 Speaker 7: words that we used, you know, if you talked about 359 00:18:26,693 --> 00:18:30,093 Speaker 7: a senior female in a workplace, called her the C word, 360 00:18:30,213 --> 00:18:32,493 Speaker 7: she's just a girl boss, she's the leader of the 361 00:18:32,493 --> 00:18:35,373 Speaker 7: hope squad. You'd be in front of the HR department 362 00:18:35,373 --> 00:18:39,573 Speaker 7: in five seconds and then starting to peck on the 363 00:18:39,613 --> 00:18:44,413 Speaker 7: way that somebody's dressing and a really senior person in 364 00:18:44,453 --> 00:18:48,573 Speaker 7: a role and you say, and you're commenting on her 365 00:18:48,613 --> 00:18:51,533 Speaker 7: clothing like that, it is actually bullying. There's no other 366 00:18:51,573 --> 00:18:54,133 Speaker 7: word for it. And we have got people in the 367 00:18:54,173 --> 00:18:57,773 Speaker 7: media women who are bullying other women. That's actually how 368 00:18:57,813 --> 00:18:59,853 Speaker 7: I see it. Where the people agree with me or not, 369 00:19:00,133 --> 00:19:02,693 Speaker 7: but I think it's pretty clear. And the thing about 370 00:19:02,733 --> 00:19:06,973 Speaker 7: bullying is it catches on. So you've got Andrea Vance, 371 00:19:07,013 --> 00:19:10,453 Speaker 7: who really set the bar pretty high there using words 372 00:19:10,493 --> 00:19:13,532 Speaker 7: like sea word, girl boss, height squad, girl meth like, 373 00:19:14,253 --> 00:19:18,493 Speaker 7: very very demeaning words, and so now we have other 374 00:19:18,693 --> 00:19:23,653 Speaker 7: female journalists who feel like it's permission to you know, 375 00:19:23,813 --> 00:19:27,253 Speaker 7: it's open season and right down to someone's clothing. I 376 00:19:27,253 --> 00:19:29,533 Speaker 7: guess next with him to hear about her here and makeup. 377 00:19:29,973 --> 00:19:33,853 Speaker 7: I find it really a sense of myself. I think, 378 00:19:33,973 --> 00:19:36,333 Speaker 7: if you think about young women, what are they meant 379 00:19:36,373 --> 00:19:39,733 Speaker 7: to see from that? So the next generation of young 380 00:19:39,773 --> 00:19:42,773 Speaker 7: women who are in front of us, all they're going 381 00:19:42,813 --> 00:19:45,333 Speaker 7: to see Gospagetz at the top of the tree. That's 382 00:19:45,333 --> 00:19:47,093 Speaker 7: actually what happens now. 383 00:19:47,013 --> 00:19:49,373 Speaker 2: Sarah, just to put the other side of it, and 384 00:19:49,413 --> 00:19:53,133 Speaker 2: the most charitable sort of analysis on what was meant 385 00:19:53,133 --> 00:19:56,773 Speaker 2: by this local designer who was calling this total disrespect, 386 00:19:58,293 --> 00:19:59,973 Speaker 2: I guess the way you could look at it is 387 00:19:59,973 --> 00:20:02,813 Speaker 2: that she saw at an opportunity for a very high 388 00:20:02,853 --> 00:20:09,133 Speaker 2: profile female politician to do something to support the New 389 00:20:09,253 --> 00:20:13,613 Speaker 2: Zealand fashion industry. And the truth of the matter is, look, 390 00:20:13,693 --> 00:20:15,453 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm just speaking for me, but I don't 391 00:20:15,493 --> 00:20:18,053 Speaker 2: know anything about clothes and I don't care about clothes. 392 00:20:18,093 --> 00:20:19,973 Speaker 2: So when I look at what people are wearing, I 393 00:20:20,013 --> 00:20:22,213 Speaker 2: just don't know anything about It's nothing that interests me. 394 00:20:22,693 --> 00:20:26,333 Speaker 2: But it does seem, you know, and there's different people 395 00:20:26,373 --> 00:20:28,973 Speaker 2: and between the sexes, there's different levels of this and 396 00:20:29,013 --> 00:20:34,173 Speaker 2: different levels of that, but overall females seem to be 397 00:20:34,293 --> 00:20:39,813 Speaker 2: more interested in fashion and what particular clothes other females wear. 398 00:20:40,333 --> 00:20:43,173 Speaker 2: So the most charitable way you could look at these 399 00:20:43,213 --> 00:20:46,973 Speaker 2: comments from this fashion designer is that it was an 400 00:20:47,013 --> 00:20:53,213 Speaker 2: opportunity missed to promote local fashion and help the fashion industry. 401 00:20:53,533 --> 00:20:54,493 Speaker 2: Do you see what I'm saying? 402 00:20:55,493 --> 00:20:56,253 Speaker 9: Yes, I see that. 403 00:20:57,573 --> 00:21:02,093 Speaker 7: I think that the woman who made the comment about 404 00:21:02,413 --> 00:21:09,213 Speaker 7: the clothing has completely missed the point. So Nikola Willis 405 00:21:09,293 --> 00:21:13,133 Speaker 7: was there with a huge innovation in the with the 406 00:21:13,213 --> 00:21:16,653 Speaker 7: investment boost for business, and I think that this person, 407 00:21:16,693 --> 00:21:20,413 Speaker 7: instead of worrying about whether she liked Nichola's blue dress 408 00:21:20,493 --> 00:21:24,373 Speaker 7: or not, should have been considering that the investment boost 409 00:21:24,813 --> 00:21:33,453 Speaker 7: for business allowed her a very significant benefit top to 410 00:21:33,533 --> 00:21:38,293 Speaker 7: bring in new equipment into her business and gave a 411 00:21:38,333 --> 00:21:41,933 Speaker 7: real incentive for capital expenditure that would have actually created 412 00:21:41,973 --> 00:21:46,813 Speaker 7: additional spending out in New Zealand five business through business, 413 00:21:46,893 --> 00:21:51,013 Speaker 7: creating extra jobs. And instead she focused on what Nichola 414 00:21:51,133 --> 00:21:53,653 Speaker 7: was wearing. So I would actually ask what kind of 415 00:21:53,653 --> 00:21:55,213 Speaker 7: business person that person is? 416 00:21:55,533 --> 00:21:58,093 Speaker 3: Yeah, I nicely said, Sarah, thank you very much, having 417 00:21:58,173 --> 00:22:00,573 Speaker 3: a chat with us really appreciated. Oh one hundred and 418 00:22:00,573 --> 00:22:03,613 Speaker 3: eighteen eighty is the number to call your thoughts on 419 00:22:04,053 --> 00:22:07,293 Speaker 3: a couple of instances of women having to go with 420 00:22:07,413 --> 00:22:10,293 Speaker 3: other women.

You know, that 426 00:22:25,613 --> 00:22:28,093 Speaker 2: would be a that would be a way around it, 427 00:22:28,133 --> 00:22:30,453 Speaker 2: just to quietly go and say, look, you're a very 428 00:22:30,653 --> 00:22:34,413 Speaker 2: successful New Zealand woman who's in the in the spotlight 429 00:22:34,413 --> 00:22:35,653 Speaker 2: a lot of time.

Parliament didn't to 439 00:23:05,053 --> 00:23:08,413 Speaker 10: look in to pay equity legislation passed under Urge and 440 00:23:08,493 --> 00:23:11,693 Speaker 10: See this month. The government still yet to work out 441 00:23:11,733 --> 00:23:14,573 Speaker 10: how much its key we Savior change is announced in 442 00:23:14,613 --> 00:23:19,173 Speaker 10: the budget to lift employee and employer contributions will impact 443 00:23:19,213 --> 00:23:23,173 Speaker 10: its books. A food bank operator says last week's budget 444 00:23:23,373 --> 00:23:25,813 Speaker 10: will make it harder for families to put food on 445 00:23:25,933 --> 00:23:29,173 Speaker 10: the table. David Lettelli says that dollar more a day 446 00:23:29,173 --> 00:23:32,453 Speaker 10: in Working for Families payments is a slap in the face. 447 00:23:33,373 --> 00:23:36,533 Speaker 10: Social Development Minister Louise Upston says the government's doing all 448 00:23:36,573 --> 00:23:39,973 Speaker 10: it can to ensure beneficiaries are trying to find jobs. 449 00:23:40,373 --> 00:23:43,853 Speaker 10: New sanctions from today include money cards holding half of 450 00:23:43,933 --> 00:23:46,413 Speaker 10: beneficiary's payment that can only be. 451 00:23:46,453 --> 00:23:47,773 Speaker 3: Used at approved stores. 452 00:23:48,853 --> 00:23:51,493 Speaker 10: Us Band one Republic is coming to New Zealand for 453 00:23:51,573 --> 00:23:56,173 Speaker 10: one show only in February during its This Sweet Escape Tour, 454 00:23:56,933 --> 00:24:00,573 Speaker 10: New Zealand's biggest private hospital expansion.

Two incidence is one of the 459 00:24:13,133 --> 00:24:16,013 Speaker 3: very publicized and Andrea Vant's article, but another one on 460 00:24:16,053 --> 00:24:18,733 Speaker 3: the weekend. We're a New Zealand fashion designer, she's female. 461 00:24:19,493 --> 00:24:22,453 Speaker 3: Took umbrage at what Nicola Willis was wearing on budget Day? 462 00:24:22,893 --> 00:24:27,133 Speaker 2: Is this misogyny and as woman misogyny becoming worse and 463 00:24:27,173 --> 00:24:30,453 Speaker 2: more acceptable? Is it worse than male on woman misogyny? 464 00:24:30,573 --> 00:24:30,773 Speaker 3: Yeah? 465 00:24:31,133 --> 00:24:33,893 Speaker 2: This text says personally, as a bloke happily married for 466 00:24:33,973 --> 00:24:36,052 Speaker 2: years to the same woman, I wasn't looking at a 467 00:24:36,053 --> 00:24:39,373 Speaker 2: minister Willis as an object. I was, however, disappointed to 468 00:24:39,413 --> 00:24:42,373 Speaker 2: discover that she was promoting a British clothes designer instead 469 00:24:42,373 --> 00:24:45,013 Speaker 2: of taking a chance to show off Kiwi clothing. All 470 00:24:45,053 --> 00:24:47,893 Speaker 2: our ministers should take every opportunity to promote Kiwi. That's 471 00:24:47,893 --> 00:24:51,333 Speaker 2: from Tony that he was disappointed discover that she was 472 00:24:51,373 --> 00:24:53,573 Speaker 2: promoting a British clothes designer. I don't think she was 473 00:24:53,613 --> 00:24:56,413 Speaker 2: promoting anything. No, she was just wearing some clothes. She 474 00:24:56,493 --> 00:24:58,613 Speaker 2: was promoting blue. That's about as far as you could 475 00:24:58,613 --> 00:25:00,253 Speaker 2: take it, which is fair enough. And it just so 476 00:25:00,333 --> 00:25:03,933 Speaker 2: happened that that was from a UK designer. I believe 477 00:25:04,373 --> 00:25:09,253 Speaker 2: but I thought Chris Bishop, he made a social media 478 00:25:09,293 --> 00:25:13,253 Speaker 2: post in the weekend sort of ridiculing the idea that 479 00:25:13,613 --> 00:25:16,013 Speaker 2: a woman would be called up on what she's wearing, 480 00:25:16,053 --> 00:25:20,213 Speaker 2: whereas all the other men in Parliament that day no 481 00:25:20,253 --> 00:25:23,853 Speaker 2: one even thought or looked at them and asked what 482 00:25:24,733 --> 00:25:27,653 Speaker 2: nation their clothes come from. Listen to this now there's 483 00:25:27,693 --> 00:25:28,333 Speaker 2: been a lot. 484 00:25:28,133 --> 00:25:30,293 Speaker 11: Of interest from a New Zealand Herald as to what 485 00:25:30,333 --> 00:25:33,053 Speaker 11: our Minister of Finance was wearing on Budget Day, but 486 00:25:33,133 --> 00:25:36,053 Speaker 11: nobody has asked me. So here I am at Parliament 487 00:25:36,133 --> 00:25:38,773 Speaker 11: and post a budget urgency. I thought i'd run you 488 00:25:38,853 --> 00:25:40,292 Speaker 11: through what I'm wearing. 489 00:25:40,573 --> 00:25:40,813 Speaker 12: Now. 490 00:25:40,893 --> 00:25:44,453 Speaker 11: Listen this tie I actually got in France.

This 495 00:26:00,293 --> 00:26:04,213 Speaker 11: is a New Zealand Music Month badge. Now the socks 496 00:26:05,053 --> 00:26:07,893 Speaker 11: the socks are from I'm not actually sure. I think 497 00:26:07,893 --> 00:26:11,013 Speaker 11: they might be a standard issue black h M pair 498 00:26:11,053 --> 00:26:11,493 Speaker 11: of socks. 499 00:26:11,893 --> 00:26:13,973 Speaker 3: And the shoes which need a. 500 00:26:13,893 --> 00:26:18,373 Speaker 11: Bit of a bit of a polish obviously, I think 501 00:26:18,413 --> 00:26:20,173 Speaker 11: they are from three wise men as well. 502 00:26:20,573 --> 00:26:21,613 Speaker 8: So there you have it. 503 00:26:21,933 --> 00:26:24,693 Speaker 11: That's what I'm wearing in post a budget urgency.

We're wearing something that came 551 00:28:34,813 --> 00:28:38,013 Speaker 13: from a British designer. Maybe she should just send her 552 00:28:38,013 --> 00:28:40,573 Speaker 13: an email and say, hey, next time, if you're interested, 553 00:28:40,613 --> 00:28:42,533 Speaker 13: come and have a look at what I've got and 554 00:28:42,573 --> 00:28:46,053 Speaker 13: I will actually lend you a PAS of my wear 555 00:28:46,333 --> 00:28:50,293 Speaker 13: so that you can promote that.

I was just 558 00:28:55,973 --> 00:28:58,893 Speaker 13: absolutely blown away by the standard and the level that 559 00:28:59,373 --> 00:29:01,093 Speaker 13: women are coming to in this country. 560 00:29:01,173 --> 00:29:02,013 Speaker 5: It's disgusting. 561 00:29:02,493 --> 00:29:04,373 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's normally the way you go about it, isn't it. 562 00:29:04,373 --> 00:29:07,133 Speaker 2: If you want to want to promote your product, then 563 00:29:07,733 --> 00:29:10,093 Speaker 2: in the fashion world then you you know, look at 564 00:29:10,093 --> 00:29:13,573 Speaker 2: the met Gala or Oscars or whatever it is, or 565 00:29:13,693 --> 00:29:17,413 Speaker 2: just people on Instagram influences. You give them something to 566 00:29:17,413 --> 00:29:20,533 Speaker 2: wear and then they'll be like, oh, I'll wear it. 567 00:29:20,533 --> 00:29:23,813 Speaker 2: That's fine. It's proberly going public and saying it is. 568 00:29:23,893 --> 00:29:28,333 Speaker 2: I think it was described as a total disrespect. I mean, boy, 569 00:29:28,653 --> 00:29:31,213 Speaker 2: if that's total disrespect, that there's a there's a low 570 00:29:31,293 --> 00:29:34,853 Speaker 2: bar or total disrespect is to just choose to wear, 571 00:29:35,453 --> 00:29:38,293 Speaker 2: to choose to wear some clothes that you've found in 572 00:29:38,333 --> 00:29:40,533 Speaker 2: the shop and like and have decided to wear a 573 00:29:40,653 --> 00:29:43,093 Speaker 2: total disrespect.

I've noticed, and the lowering of the sceneards 578 00:29:52,893 --> 00:29:55,493 Speaker 13: and especially among some of some of the women. I've 579 00:29:55,493 --> 00:30:00,493 Speaker 13: been really disappointed in the standard of dress. But then, 580 00:30:00,573 --> 00:30:03,053 Speaker 13: you know, it's the old it's the old story. You know, 581 00:30:03,093 --> 00:30:04,973 Speaker 13: you'll have one side at the table that's say, but 582 00:30:05,053 --> 00:30:07,173 Speaker 13: we have the right to wear what we want to wear, 583 00:30:08,053 --> 00:30:10,573 Speaker 13: and and that should really apply to nickle Willis too. 584 00:30:10,893 --> 00:30:13,853 Speaker 13: You know, it should be one rule for one lot 585 00:30:13,893 --> 00:30:14,813 Speaker 13: and one rule for another. 586 00:30:14,973 --> 00:30:17,213 Speaker 2: What about we just take this completely off the table 587 00:30:17,333 --> 00:30:20,933 Speaker 2: and have some boiler suits that everyone in Parliament wears 588 00:30:20,933 --> 00:30:23,613 Speaker 2: when they go into the chamber. They're all exactly the same. 589 00:30:23,693 --> 00:30:27,413 Speaker 2: They're unisex, they're just a head to toe boiler or 590 00:30:27,813 --> 00:30:30,053 Speaker 2: some kind of has matt suit and they just go 591 00:30:30,133 --> 00:30:31,933 Speaker 2: in there and then just take the whole thing right 592 00:30:31,933 --> 00:30:33,773 Speaker 2: off the table. Would you support that Sheryl. 593 00:30:34,773 --> 00:30:37,733 Speaker 13: I would imagine somebody would complain about who made the boilers, 594 00:30:40,093 --> 00:30:42,453 Speaker 13: they had a powerf attached to them, or whether they 595 00:30:42,533 --> 00:30:47,293 Speaker 13: actually had a Maori motif on one sleeve, or you know, 596 00:30:48,253 --> 00:30:52,253 Speaker 13: I don't think we're leveling.

Right, we're going to play some messages, 676 00:34:33,493 --> 00:34:35,253 Speaker 3: but coming up after the break, we're going to have 677 00:34:35,293 --> 00:34:38,773 Speaker 3: a chat to Die. She's also worked in the fashion industry, 678 00:34:38,813 --> 00:34:41,293 Speaker 3: so this is going to be interesting. It is eleven 679 00:34:41,373 --> 00:34:43,172 Speaker 3: to two. You're listening to Matt and Tyler. 680 00:34:44,213 --> 00:34:47,772 Speaker 1: Matt Heath, Taylor Adams taking your calls on eight hundred 681 00:34:47,813 --> 00:34:51,853 Speaker 1: and eighty ten eighty. It's Matt Heath and Taylor Adams Afternoons. 682 00:34:51,333 --> 00:34:55,493 Speaker 3: News TALKSB, News TALKSB. It is eight to two, Die, 683 00:34:55,733 --> 00:34:57,973 Speaker 3: you have also worked in the fashion industry. 684 00:34:58,933 --> 00:34:59,253 Speaker 18: I have. 685 00:34:59,853 --> 00:35:02,613 Speaker 9: I lived in Australia for thirty five years and worked 686 00:35:02,693 --> 00:35:08,293 Speaker 9: constantly through in the fashion industry, and I'm right behind 687 00:35:08,493 --> 00:35:12,893 Speaker 9: what Sarah and Cheryl have been saying. And I think 688 00:35:13,173 --> 00:35:17,533 Speaker 9: full marks for Nichola Willis because it's really important that 689 00:35:17,733 --> 00:35:22,013 Speaker 9: she choose what she wants to wear that suits her. 690 00:35:22,973 --> 00:35:25,453 Speaker 9: And there's a lot of top designers over in Australia 691 00:35:25,533 --> 00:35:29,173 Speaker 9: they don't always wear their own brand. And the fact 692 00:35:29,293 --> 00:35:34,212 Speaker 9: is that in Nichola Willis's position, I am more important, 693 00:35:34,773 --> 00:35:39,373 Speaker 9: more impressed, and it's more important to me with her 694 00:35:39,533 --> 00:35:44,053 Speaker 9: role in how she delivers, and you know, how she performs, 695 00:35:44,173 --> 00:35:47,893 Speaker 9: and she's a professional and I have so much admiration 696 00:35:48,013 --> 00:35:52,453 Speaker 9: and respect for her. She's beautifully presented, and I think 697 00:35:52,693 --> 00:35:58,573 Speaker 9: these women who it is misogynist and she's not a maniquin. 698 00:35:59,533 --> 00:36:03,373 Speaker 9: Our top people are not maniquins. They're not there to 699 00:36:03,413 --> 00:36:07,853 Speaker 9: present the local coffee they drink or whatever. They're there 700 00:36:07,933 --> 00:36:11,133 Speaker 9: to do it job and be professional. So yeah, I 701 00:36:11,173 --> 00:36:17,053 Speaker 9: think what Chris Bishop did and what Nicholas's own remarks 702 00:36:17,133 --> 00:36:19,333 Speaker 9: were totally appropriate. 703 00:36:19,573 --> 00:36:21,493 Speaker 2: Now Die you said that, I can't believe I can't 704 00:36:21,493 --> 00:36:23,453 Speaker 2: remember the exact words, but you were saying that you know, 705 00:36:23,533 --> 00:36:25,772 Speaker 2: she looks how did you describe the way you thought 706 00:36:25,813 --> 00:36:29,333 Speaker 2: she looked? That she looked she's well presented. Do do you 707 00:36:29,333 --> 00:36:32,652 Speaker 2: think do you when you see male politicians, do you 708 00:36:32,693 --> 00:36:35,533 Speaker 2: have that same thought process about them? Do you run that? 709 00:36:35,773 --> 00:36:38,733 Speaker 2: Do you run the same critical eye over what they're 710 00:36:38,733 --> 00:36:41,413 Speaker 2: wearing as you would what Nicholas wearing. 711 00:36:42,373 --> 00:36:42,573 Speaker 7: No. 712 00:36:42,853 --> 00:36:46,253 Speaker 9: When I say well presented, I'm saying, here is a 713 00:36:46,293 --> 00:36:52,293 Speaker 9: professional person dressing for the appropriate attire for the appropriate occasion. 714 00:36:52,933 --> 00:36:56,893 Speaker 9: And we've got some very good politicians who they do 715 00:36:57,013 --> 00:37:00,413 Speaker 9: They are well turned out as and they look they're 716 00:37:00,533 --> 00:37:05,053 Speaker 9: dressed appropriately. They're showing respect to their role, and I 717 00:37:05,613 --> 00:37:07,652 Speaker 9: you know, and I think that is the important thing. 718 00:37:07,693 --> 00:37:11,813 Speaker 9: And it's what ever Nikola Willis feels comfortable wearing, because 719 00:37:12,293 --> 00:37:14,453 Speaker 9: the bottom line is a lot of people are forgetting 720 00:37:15,493 --> 00:37:20,293 Speaker 9: that when you go shopping, we choose clothes that we 721 00:37:20,373 --> 00:37:25,133 Speaker 9: feel comfortable and that fit us well, and we feel 722 00:37:25,133 --> 00:37:28,893 Speaker 9: comfortable and they're not either too out there or two 723 00:37:29,053 --> 00:37:32,893 Speaker 9: conservative that they just work for us. And that's her 724 00:37:32,973 --> 00:37:36,093 Speaker 9: choices should be respected. And I really really like her. 725 00:37:36,493 --> 00:37:40,652 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, all right, thanks die. Yeah, someone here saying 726 00:37:40,693 --> 00:37:44,053 Speaker 2: My point is that you're acting like Nichola Willis as 727 00:37:44,053 --> 00:37:46,773 Speaker 2: some kind of victim. I worked with brands that use ambassadors, 728 00:37:46,773 --> 00:37:49,373 Speaker 2: and yes, if your high profile, that's what your brands 729 00:37:49,493 --> 00:37:52,213 Speaker 2: use to promote their products. That's reality. You should also 730 00:37:52,253 --> 00:37:55,213 Speaker 2: be using Jacinda as an example of how vile Keywis 731 00:37:55,213 --> 00:37:57,573 Speaker 2: can be. You could write your thesis on the misogyny 732 00:37:57,573 --> 00:38:01,053 Speaker 2: that you are doing received from keyboard warriors. Yeah, but 733 00:38:01,173 --> 00:38:04,732 Speaker 2: keywood Warriors are very different from mainstream media. You can't 734 00:38:04,733 --> 00:38:07,613 Speaker 2: shut up the keyboard Warriors. They're irrelevant exactly in this 735 00:38:07,733 --> 00:38:09,853 Speaker 2: chat ye spot on. So it's going to be crazy 736 00:38:09,893 --> 00:38:11,853 Speaker 2: people and some of them aren't even humans. Some of 737 00:38:11,853 --> 00:38:12,573 Speaker 2: them aren't even real. 738 00:38:12,733 --> 00:38:16,133 Speaker 3: Yes, some of them are bots. And this sticks years afternoon, guys, 739 00:38:16,293 --> 00:38:19,373 Speaker 3: After years in high level corporates, I can honestly say 740 00:38:19,413 --> 00:38:23,253 Speaker 3: that females were always the more misogynistic towards other females 741 00:38:23,293 --> 00:38:26,413 Speaker 3: than the men were. Women are often incredibly challenging to 742 00:38:26,453 --> 00:38:28,813 Speaker 3: report to and work with, often more than other men. 743 00:38:29,533 --> 00:38:32,453 Speaker 3: Stuff's management need to take a look at a hard 744 00:38:32,493 --> 00:38:34,413 Speaker 3: look at themselves after that article. 745 00:38:34,853 --> 00:38:37,053 Speaker 2: Yeah, and can guys just say, from my perspective, looking 746 00:38:37,053 --> 00:38:38,692 Speaker 2: at what Tyler's wearing, would it kill you and make 747 00:38:38,693 --> 00:38:38,973 Speaker 2: a bit of. 748 00:38:38,973 --> 00:38:40,933 Speaker 3: Effort you too, mate. I'm going to say, you know you' 749 00:38:41,013 --> 00:38:43,733 Speaker 3: letting the standards slip a little Bit's come on. 750 00:38:44,253 --> 00:38:45,733 Speaker 2: If you guys can see what he's wearing, you have 751 00:38:45,933 --> 00:38:46,813 Speaker 2: no respect from it. 752 00:38:46,893 --> 00:38:49,693 Speaker 3: All right, good discussion, Thank you very much to everybody 753 00:38:49,733 --> 00:38:52,493 Speaker 3: who phoned and text.

You all know the ones. 756 00:38:59,533 --> 00:39:03,453 Speaker 3: It's on the right hand lane. Those who decide to 757 00:39:03,573 --> 00:39:05,573 Speaker 3: go very slow. It's not the fast lane for a 758 00:39:05,573 --> 00:39:07,853 Speaker 3: lot of kiwis. Why is that? We will find out 759 00:39:07,933 --> 00:39:09,573 Speaker 3: very short.

It'd be good afternoon. See just before we 768 00:40:07,453 --> 00:40:09,533 Speaker 3: move on, i'mout trying put on a brave face, but 769 00:40:09,613 --> 00:40:12,573 Speaker 3: it is stinking hot in here. Yeah, you've cranked that. 770 00:40:12,733 --> 00:40:16,093 Speaker 3: Matt Heath has cranked the aircon in here. I think 771 00:40:16,093 --> 00:40:18,373 Speaker 3: it's about twenty seven at the moment. It's slowly creeping 772 00:40:18,413 --> 00:40:18,893 Speaker 3: to about that. 773 00:40:18,933 --> 00:40:19,053 Speaker 8: Well. 774 00:40:19,093 --> 00:40:20,812 Speaker 2: I come from a radio station where we were allowed 775 00:40:20,813 --> 00:40:22,573 Speaker 2: to control our own air conditioning. Yet to write an 776 00:40:22,573 --> 00:40:26,172 Speaker 2: email upstairs to change the air conditioning. Yeah, So I 777 00:40:26,213 --> 00:40:28,453 Speaker 2: love the huge amount of control we have on the 778 00:40:28,453 --> 00:40:31,773 Speaker 2: heat of our studio, the Microsking Memorial Studio. So I've 779 00:40:31,853 --> 00:40:33,652 Speaker 2: just seen the limits of it. Can we can we 780 00:40:33,733 --> 00:40:35,893 Speaker 2: get this studio up to thirty five? Can we get 781 00:40:35,893 --> 00:40:39,133 Speaker 2: a tropical atmosphere in here just by pumping the temperature. 782 00:40:39,173 --> 00:40:41,453 Speaker 3: I'd quite like the rule downstairs to be implemented. And 783 00:40:41,493 --> 00:40:44,053 Speaker 3: here I'd go further actually, that all changes to the 784 00:40:44,093 --> 00:40:47,053 Speaker 3: aircon has to go through my cosskin. I think you'd 785 00:40:47,093 --> 00:40:47,533 Speaker 3: like that as well. 786 00:40:47,533 --> 00:40:49,693 Speaker 2: Wouldn't he keep it at the same temperature as the 787 00:40:49,733 --> 00:40:50,813 Speaker 2: toom he sleeps in at night? 788 00:40:53,013 --> 00:40:53,413 Speaker 3: Very good? 789 00:40:53,773 --> 00:40:56,172 Speaker 2: Hey, we got out of that last hour live talking 790 00:40:56,173 --> 00:41:00,093 Speaker 2: about female and female misogyny. Yes, so let's take it 791 00:41:00,093 --> 00:41:00,973 Speaker 2: to the roads, Tyler. 792 00:41:01,133 --> 00:41:03,133 Speaker 3: Let's take it to the road. So the road rule 793 00:41:03,133 --> 00:41:06,533 Speaker 3: that kiwis can't seem to follow. So chances are you've 794 00:41:06,533 --> 00:41:09,973 Speaker 3: come across the notorious right lane. A hog the driver 795 00:41:10,013 --> 00:41:12,133 Speaker 3: who sticks in the right lane going just below the 796 00:41:12,173 --> 00:41:16,453 Speaker 3: speed limit, unaware or indifferent to the queues of frustrated drivers. 797 00:41:16,493 --> 00:41:18,533 Speaker 3: So why do we do this? 798 00:41:19,173 --> 00:41:21,733 Speaker 2: Yeah, it seems Is it just that people are forgetting 799 00:41:21,733 --> 00:41:25,652 Speaker 2: where they are because they're just cruising along? Because I 800 00:41:25,693 --> 00:41:28,333 Speaker 2: did this recently. I was down in Featherston and I 801 00:41:28,373 --> 00:41:29,453 Speaker 2: was driving over to great. 802 00:41:29,253 --> 00:41:31,573 Speaker 3: Town, great place, Featherstone, just jumping there. 803 00:41:31,613 --> 00:41:34,253 Speaker 2: So it's great Town, beautiful. But I was driving along 804 00:41:34,293 --> 00:41:36,373 Speaker 2: and then I realized that had a huge queue of 805 00:41:36,413 --> 00:41:40,013 Speaker 2: people behind me. And then I looked down and realized 806 00:41:40,013 --> 00:41:42,172 Speaker 2: I was driving at eighty k because I was looking 807 00:41:42,213 --> 00:41:44,253 Speaker 2: at the looking around like a total wound or at 808 00:41:44,253 --> 00:41:47,853 Speaker 2: all the beautiful scenery they hadn't seen before. Right, God, 809 00:41:47,893 --> 00:41:48,933 Speaker 2: great Town's a good place. 810 00:41:49,093 --> 00:41:50,093 Speaker 3: There's a beautiful place. 811 00:41:50,253 --> 00:41:53,773 Speaker 2: But let's move the show to great Town anyway. But 812 00:41:53,853 --> 00:41:56,533 Speaker 2: the point is, is it just people zoning out or 813 00:41:56,573 --> 00:41:59,133 Speaker 2: do they not know? And you know, there's no excuse 814 00:41:59,173 --> 00:42:01,213 Speaker 2: to zone out when you're driving. You should be aware 815 00:42:01,293 --> 00:42:04,533 Speaker 2: all the time. But so many people cruise along in 816 00:42:04,573 --> 00:42:05,933 Speaker 2: that fast lane slow. 817 00:42:06,493 --> 00:42:09,053 Speaker 3: I think here's my theory, I think fifty percent or 818 00:42:09,053 --> 00:42:13,253 Speaker 3: oblivious like you, you're so enamored with the scenery that 819 00:42:13,533 --> 00:42:16,293 Speaker 3: you've got no idea that there's fifty cars behind you, 820 00:42:16,373 --> 00:42:19,493 Speaker 3: getting angry and angrier that who is this muppet up there? 821 00:42:19,533 --> 00:42:21,893 Speaker 2: And let's be clear, you should be enamored with the 822 00:42:21,893 --> 00:42:23,293 Speaker 2: back of the car in front of you and not 823 00:42:23,333 --> 00:42:23,853 Speaker 2: the scenery. 824 00:42:24,013 --> 00:42:27,293 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, very good advice. But I think the other 825 00:42:27,333 --> 00:42:30,093 Speaker 3: fifty percent, it's almost like a bit of a pissing 826 00:42:30,133 --> 00:42:33,853 Speaker 3: contest that there's something ingrained in our psyche that we 827 00:42:33,893 --> 00:42:36,493 Speaker 3: see it as a personal slight when we let somebody 828 00:42:36,493 --> 00:42:40,253 Speaker 3: past us, particularly when that other person wants to speed, 829 00:42:40,373 --> 00:42:44,173 Speaker 3: and speeding it's illegal, right, and if you speed, chances 830 00:42:44,173 --> 00:42:46,293 Speaker 3: are you may get caught. But who are you, as 831 00:42:46,453 --> 00:42:49,773 Speaker 3: just a lowly old driver on the motorway or highway 832 00:42:49,813 --> 00:42:52,533 Speaker 3: to dictate how far somebody else goes if somebody wants 833 00:42:52,573 --> 00:42:54,173 Speaker 3: to go a little bit over the limit? 834 00:42:54,533 --> 00:42:55,212 Speaker 2: Yeah, right over. 835 00:42:55,453 --> 00:42:58,212 Speaker 3: It just feels like it's ingrained to say I am 836 00:42:58,573 --> 00:43:01,533 Speaker 3: taking control of the highways here. I'm going to be 837 00:43:01,573 --> 00:43:04,853 Speaker 3: a self enforced police officer, and you're going to stay 838 00:43:04,853 --> 00:43:06,053 Speaker 3: behind me no matter what you like. 839 00:43:06,093 --> 00:43:09,613 Speaker 2: Max Forsteppan Yeah, the Monaco grom analogy. He was trying 840 00:43:09,613 --> 00:43:11,813 Speaker 2: to slow everyone down. He was waiting for some kind 841 00:43:11,813 --> 00:43:15,693 Speaker 2: of safety car situation and he was slowing up Lando Norris. 842 00:43:15,733 --> 00:43:17,773 Speaker 2: So char Leclere could get right up as. 843 00:43:17,613 --> 00:43:19,053 Speaker 3: But spot on good analogy. 844 00:43:19,893 --> 00:43:24,853 Speaker 2: We're not all max for stepping at the Monica Grand 845 00:43:24,893 --> 00:43:27,853 Speaker 2: Peed anyway. That's what I stayed up last night to watch. 846 00:43:27,933 --> 00:43:30,133 Speaker 2: So hence, if I'm not speaking properties because I didn't 847 00:43:30,133 --> 00:43:30,853 Speaker 2: get much sleep. 848 00:43:30,693 --> 00:43:31,813 Speaker 3: Well, we want to hear from you on this. So 849 00:43:31,813 --> 00:43:33,933 Speaker 3: I one hundred and eighty ten eighty about these right 850 00:43:34,013 --> 00:43:37,013 Speaker 3: lane hogs and the ones doing just under the speed limit. 851 00:43:37,093 --> 00:43:39,933 Speaker 3: Why can't we follow this particular road rule? But a 852 00:43:39,973 --> 00:43:43,533 Speaker 3: follow up question is do we need to introduce refresher 853 00:43:43,613 --> 00:43:46,333 Speaker 3: courses when it comes to the driver's code. 854 00:43:46,573 --> 00:43:48,893 Speaker 2: Yeah, and if so, because a lot of people don't 855 00:43:48,933 --> 00:43:50,652 Speaker 2: know that. I think a lot of people you'd go, well, 856 00:43:50,693 --> 00:43:52,813 Speaker 2: you're if you're in the far right lane, then that 857 00:43:52,933 --> 00:43:55,652 Speaker 2: unless you're passing, then you're breaking the law. Yeah, you 858 00:43:55,653 --> 00:43:57,413 Speaker 2: can get ticketed for that. So unless you're passing, you 859 00:43:57,453 --> 00:43:59,133 Speaker 2: shouldn't be in that lane, right. I think a lot 860 00:43:59,133 --> 00:44:00,773 Speaker 2: of people wouldn't know that, right. There's a lot of 861 00:44:00,773 --> 00:44:02,693 Speaker 2: people that there's a lot of things that a lot 862 00:44:02,733 --> 00:44:05,013 Speaker 2: of people don't know. So what are those things O 863 00:44:05,053 --> 00:44:07,053 Speaker 2: eight hundred and eighty ten eighty that we need to 864 00:44:07,093 --> 00:44:09,053 Speaker 2: be refreshed on. What do you say when you're driving 865 00:44:09,053 --> 00:44:11,973 Speaker 2: around New Zealand cities and out on the road, where 866 00:44:12,013 --> 00:44:14,652 Speaker 2: you think this is something that that person doesn't know 867 00:44:15,053 --> 00:44:18,093 Speaker 2: that they should know and we need to refresh people on. 868 00:44:17,813 --> 00:44:19,652 Speaker 3: This will be good. Oh, one hundred and eighty ten 869 00:44:19,693 --> 00:44:21,613 Speaker 3: eighty is the number to call eleven past. 870 00:44:21,333 --> 00:44:26,933 Speaker 1: Two your home of afternoon talk, Mad Heathen Taylor Adams 871 00:44:26,973 --> 00:44:31,133 Speaker 1: afternoons call eight hundred eighty ten eighty youth Talk said. 872 00:44:30,853 --> 00:44:35,652 Speaker 3: Be thirteen past two. And we're talking about the right 873 00:44:35,773 --> 00:44:38,453 Speaker 3: lane rule, the speeding lane so to speak. It is 874 00:44:38,493 --> 00:44:41,813 Speaker 3: a road rule that Kiwis can't seem to follow. Why 875 00:44:41,933 --> 00:44:45,213 Speaker 3: is that? But also do we need to introduce refresher 876 00:44:45,253 --> 00:44:47,853 Speaker 3: courses for our driver's licenses? And if we do, what 877 00:44:48,333 --> 00:44:50,253 Speaker 3: things do we need to refresh ourselves on? 878 00:44:50,373 --> 00:44:52,692 Speaker 2: Guys, great subject, love the show. I was getting bent 879 00:44:52,733 --> 00:44:55,172 Speaker 2: out of shape over this exact thing just last week 880 00:44:55,253 --> 00:44:57,573 Speaker 2: and it was a cop hoogging the right lane. Oh, 881 00:44:57,653 --> 00:45:00,333 Speaker 2: they're probably allowed to. Another hot point for me is 882 00:45:00,533 --> 00:45:03,653 Speaker 2: park lights. On as it's getting dark, you're not parked, 883 00:45:03,693 --> 00:45:09,053 Speaker 2: don't use them. Full disclosure. I've got no idea about 884 00:45:09,493 --> 00:45:11,252 Speaker 2: when you use what. I don't even know what park 885 00:45:11,333 --> 00:45:13,493 Speaker 2: lights are. I maybe should hand in my license. I 886 00:45:13,493 --> 00:45:17,173 Speaker 2: don't really know what park lights are or driving lights, 887 00:45:17,413 --> 00:45:19,333 Speaker 2: what lights are? What my car is automatic? It just 888 00:45:19,333 --> 00:45:20,613 Speaker 2: turns on exactly. 889 00:45:20,693 --> 00:45:21,493 Speaker 3: That's all I was going to say. 890 00:45:21,573 --> 00:45:24,533 Speaker 2: My carving depths now when you've got oncoming traffic, so 891 00:45:24,573 --> 00:45:28,533 Speaker 2: it goes full beam up and down. So and how 892 00:45:28,613 --> 00:45:30,453 Speaker 2: quickly do you forget this? Because I've probably had cars, 893 00:45:30,453 --> 00:45:33,413 Speaker 2: probably only for the last ten years that do all 894 00:45:33,413 --> 00:45:35,133 Speaker 2: those kind of things, and now I've completely forgot what 895 00:45:35,133 --> 00:45:36,773 Speaker 2: park lights are or anything to do with lights. 896 00:45:36,813 --> 00:45:39,533 Speaker 3: You just let the automatic sort it out. Is the 897 00:45:39,533 --> 00:45:42,413 Speaker 3: same in my car, but just quickly on the headlights. 898 00:45:42,453 --> 00:45:46,453 Speaker 3: The brightness of headlights is that has ratcheted up in 899 00:45:46,453 --> 00:45:47,413 Speaker 3: the last couple of years. 900 00:45:47,773 --> 00:45:48,973 Speaker 2: Yeah? Right? Has it a A? 901 00:45:49,253 --> 00:45:51,053 Speaker 3: I know there was just there was a question. 902 00:45:51,213 --> 00:45:51,573 Speaker 5: A right. 903 00:45:51,573 --> 00:45:53,652 Speaker 3: It just feels like everybody's on full beams these days. 904 00:45:53,653 --> 00:45:55,253 Speaker 2: Now, this is the questions come through. I'd like to 905 00:45:55,253 --> 00:45:58,493 Speaker 2: know the answer to on eight hundred and eighty ten eighty, 906 00:45:58,933 --> 00:46:01,613 Speaker 2: But are you allowed to exceed the speed limit when 907 00:46:01,653 --> 00:46:03,053 Speaker 2: you pass someone. I thought that was just one of 908 00:46:03,093 --> 00:46:05,293 Speaker 2: the gray areas of life that sometimes you need you 909 00:46:05,333 --> 00:46:07,293 Speaker 2: to go above the speed limit to pass someone. But 910 00:46:07,373 --> 00:46:10,093 Speaker 2: I would imagine and that you isn't legal to go 911 00:46:10,093 --> 00:46:11,533 Speaker 2: over the speed limit, as a bunch of people are 912 00:46:11,533 --> 00:46:14,652 Speaker 2: texting when you're passing someone, because why do you need 913 00:46:14,693 --> 00:46:16,293 Speaker 2: to pass them? If you have to go over the 914 00:46:16,293 --> 00:46:17,333 Speaker 2: speed limit to pass them. 915 00:46:17,253 --> 00:46:19,133 Speaker 3: I'll tell you why, and I don't know the answers 916 00:46:19,133 --> 00:46:20,573 Speaker 3: are that. But the reason you need to do that 917 00:46:20,733 --> 00:46:23,493 Speaker 3: is it's because those numpties that do aighty k until 918 00:46:23,493 --> 00:46:25,133 Speaker 3: they get to a passing lane and then all of 919 00:46:25,173 --> 00:46:27,013 Speaker 3: a sudden speed up to one hundred. So you have 920 00:46:27,133 --> 00:46:30,253 Speaker 3: to go a little bit over the speed link that'll happen. 921 00:46:30,373 --> 00:46:32,773 Speaker 2: You notice you're driving slow and you go, oh and 922 00:46:32,853 --> 00:46:35,893 Speaker 2: so you speed up. Simon, welcome to show your thoughts 923 00:46:35,893 --> 00:46:39,453 Speaker 2: on this, Simon. 924 00:46:39,973 --> 00:46:42,652 Speaker 3: Si gared A.

Says I lived overseas for a 932 00:46:57,573 --> 00:47:00,573 Speaker 16: good number of years in the UK and motorway driving 933 00:47:00,653 --> 00:47:02,613 Speaker 16: over there. I hate to say this about the pomes. 934 00:47:02,653 --> 00:47:06,533 Speaker 16: They like to winge by the bloody better and driving 935 00:47:06,613 --> 00:47:10,413 Speaker 16: on the motorway, there's a culture keep left unless your 936 00:47:10,813 --> 00:47:14,613 Speaker 16: path and help traffic to flow. Okay, there's about seventy 937 00:47:14,653 --> 00:47:16,613 Speaker 16: million people over there for the you have to do 938 00:47:16,653 --> 00:47:19,533 Speaker 16: it to make the country function. But we have people 939 00:47:19,573 --> 00:47:21,973 Speaker 16: that just block it up. And if you flash behind 940 00:47:22,013 --> 00:47:25,013 Speaker 16: them politely, just splash once and they pull over. They 941 00:47:25,013 --> 00:47:27,053 Speaker 16: actually get it in their heads as soon as you're 942 00:47:27,133 --> 00:47:29,093 Speaker 16: on parts and you see them pull back out into 943 00:47:29,133 --> 00:47:30,172 Speaker 16: the parts lave yeah. 944 00:47:30,293 --> 00:47:30,533 Speaker 2: Right. 945 00:47:31,693 --> 00:47:35,053 Speaker 16: And I'm on a personal mission to educate people because 946 00:47:35,093 --> 00:47:37,693 Speaker 16: as soon as I've gone past, I pull into the 947 00:47:37,773 --> 00:47:40,733 Speaker 16: left lane that you show them we're all doing it. 948 00:47:40,773 --> 00:47:42,813 Speaker 16: I might have flashed you, but I play by the 949 00:47:42,853 --> 00:47:46,293 Speaker 16: same rules. And I'm trying to start a campaign here. 950 00:47:46,533 --> 00:47:49,133 Speaker 16: I believe the first Tuesday of every month we should 951 00:47:49,133 --> 00:47:52,973 Speaker 16: have nationally, especially in Auckland. Don't drive like a deck day. 952 00:47:53,413 --> 00:47:57,813 Speaker 16: Keep traffic flowing, and I bet I bet everyone will 953 00:47:57,853 --> 00:48:00,693 Speaker 16: notice they got to where they're going about forty to 954 00:48:00,813 --> 00:48:01,493 Speaker 16: teen quicker. 955 00:48:01,573 --> 00:48:03,413 Speaker 2: I like that. I like that, don't drive like a 956 00:48:03,453 --> 00:48:07,013 Speaker 2: deck day. We can get behind that that's good. So yeah, 957 00:48:07,053 --> 00:48:09,133 Speaker 2: I mean, and that's something else happens. There is the 958 00:48:09,253 --> 00:48:11,893 Speaker 2: enforcement of this. So if there's someone that's just cruising along, 959 00:48:12,413 --> 00:48:14,853 Speaker 2: like they are allowed to just live in the far 960 00:48:14,973 --> 00:48:18,333 Speaker 2: right lane, they're just lead to cruise along there. Then 961 00:48:18,413 --> 00:48:20,893 Speaker 2: often you'll get en forces that come right up their 962 00:48:20,933 --> 00:48:23,133 Speaker 2: ass just to make the point, right, You get people 963 00:48:23,133 --> 00:48:26,053 Speaker 2: that are tailgating just to make the point that you 964 00:48:26,093 --> 00:48:28,253 Speaker 2: shouldn't be sitting in there, and then that leads to 965 00:48:28,293 --> 00:48:31,093 Speaker 2: other people driving dangerously as they try and police the 966 00:48:31,173 --> 00:48:32,293 Speaker 2: roads themselves. 967 00:48:33,253 --> 00:48:35,973 Speaker 16: Yeah, it does, and you shouldn't tell gate Like when 968 00:48:35,973 --> 00:48:38,172 Speaker 16: I flash people, I'm coming up on them and it's 969 00:48:38,173 --> 00:48:41,813 Speaker 16: just a one flash. I'm not like flashing constantly in 970 00:48:41,853 --> 00:48:45,893 Speaker 16: their mirror, and it's it's just it's iniquity.

Something that I think someone 998 00:50:00,013 --> 00:50:02,213 Speaker 2: should be tasered for is when you're at the airport 999 00:50:02,253 --> 00:50:05,413 Speaker 2: and you're coming down the escalator and it says it's 1000 00:50:05,413 --> 00:50:08,133 Speaker 2: got this automated message that tells everyone to be careful 1001 00:50:08,133 --> 00:50:11,373 Speaker 2: when exiting the escalator. Yes, watch mind your step when 1002 00:50:11,373 --> 00:50:12,893 Speaker 2: you're exiting the escalator at the airport. 1003 00:50:12,973 --> 00:50:13,053 Speaker 1: Ye. 1004 00:50:13,213 --> 00:50:15,413 Speaker 2: That just goes all day and out, as if there's 1005 00:50:15,453 --> 00:50:17,053 Speaker 2: a single person in the world that doesn't know how 1006 00:50:17,093 --> 00:50:20,133 Speaker 2: to get off an escalator. The amount of energy that 1007 00:50:20,173 --> 00:50:24,013 Speaker 2: they're wasting running that message over and over telling people 1008 00:50:24,053 --> 00:50:26,973 Speaker 2: how to do something as basic as getting off an escalator. 1009 00:50:27,493 --> 00:50:30,573 Speaker 2: That drives me absolutely crazy. And you know how expensive 1010 00:50:30,613 --> 00:50:33,172 Speaker 2: it is. The Auckland, the airport I'm talking about here. 1011 00:50:33,533 --> 00:50:35,733 Speaker 2: This is when you're hitting down towards the exit gates, 1012 00:50:35,773 --> 00:50:37,333 Speaker 2: you know, when you come off the plane, your departure, 1013 00:50:37,453 --> 00:50:40,693 Speaker 2: your arrival, you know. I mean, they could save some 1014 00:50:40,733 --> 00:50:43,653 Speaker 2: money right there by shutting down that stupid sign. 1015 00:50:44,133 --> 00:50:44,573 Speaker 3: They could do. 1016 00:50:44,653 --> 00:50:46,533 Speaker 2: I mean, what's the worst thing that could happen? Someone 1017 00:50:47,173 --> 00:50:49,133 Speaker 2: trips slightly coming off the escalator. 1018 00:50:49,333 --> 00:50:51,732 Speaker 3: That's it happens all the time. But maybe because they 1019 00:50:51,733 --> 00:50:53,373 Speaker 3: see that sign and they start to panic. 1020 00:50:53,933 --> 00:50:57,173 Speaker 2: Sign I put a sign up. It's just this audio 1021 00:50:57,173 --> 00:50:58,253 Speaker 2: that plays constantly. 1022 00:50:58,413 --> 00:50:59,653 Speaker 3: I haven't heard that. It's audio. 1023 00:50:59,813 --> 00:51:04,333 Speaker 2: It's just constantly. Mind. I'm going to record it next 1024 00:51:04,333 --> 00:51:07,493 Speaker 2: time because it drives me so crazy. It's the infantie, 1025 00:51:07,613 --> 00:51:10,133 Speaker 2: it's the it's the there's a word for it, the 1026 00:51:10,173 --> 00:51:15,093 Speaker 2: infantine lace. Work on the word infantizing, infantizing, let's say, 1027 00:51:15,093 --> 00:51:18,093 Speaker 2: advertizing of people treating everyone like a baby. 1028 00:51:17,893 --> 00:51:20,013 Speaker 3: One one foot in front of the other. Yeah, Oh, 1029 00:51:20,093 --> 00:51:22,453 Speaker 3: one hundred eighty ten eighty is the number to call 1030 00:51:22,933 --> 00:51:24,453 Speaker 3: if you want to have a chat about the escalators, 1031 00:51:24,453 --> 00:51:27,253 Speaker 3: you're more than welcome. But also this rule that we 1032 00:51:27,333 --> 00:51:30,693 Speaker 3: can't seem to follow right hand lane, the fast lane? 1033 00:51:30,693 --> 00:51:33,013 Speaker 3: Why can't we follow it? And do we need refresher 1034 00:51:33,053 --> 00:51:35,933 Speaker 3: courses when it comes to our driver's license? It is 1035 00:51:36,333 --> 00:51:38,813 Speaker 3: twenty pasts two back very shortly here on News Talks, EDB. 1036 00:51:43,293 --> 00:51:44,733 Speaker 8: Mad Heathen Tyler Adams. 1037 00:51:44,773 --> 00:51:48,613 Speaker 1: Afternoons call oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty on Youth Talks, EDB. 1038 00:51:48,893 --> 00:51:51,853 Speaker 3: Good afternoon. We're talking about the fast lane. It's the 1039 00:51:51,933 --> 00:51:54,652 Speaker 3: road real kiwis can't seem to follow. But also asked 1040 00:51:54,653 --> 00:51:57,253 Speaker 3: the question do we need refresher courses when it comes 1041 00:51:57,293 --> 00:51:57,933 Speaker 3: to our driving? 1042 00:51:58,173 --> 00:52:01,933 Speaker 2: And the word I was looking for is the infantilistization 1043 00:52:02,693 --> 00:52:05,893 Speaker 2: infantilization of society as what we're talking about. 1044 00:52:05,973 --> 00:52:08,253 Speaker 3: And you're talking about the escalator that we audio that 1045 00:52:08,493 --> 00:52:11,293 Speaker 3: plays on a loop in the Auckland Airport it's almost 1046 00:52:11,493 --> 00:52:12,533 Speaker 3: like slow torture. 1047 00:52:12,573 --> 00:52:14,013 Speaker 2: Yeah. So we're kind of running two lines here that 1048 00:52:14,093 --> 00:52:17,173 Speaker 2: are almost contradictorary because I'm saying that, but I'm also 1049 00:52:17,213 --> 00:52:20,213 Speaker 2: saying that we need to run a no dick. You know, 1050 00:52:20,213 --> 00:52:22,613 Speaker 2: we need to re educate people on how to drive. Yeah, 1051 00:52:22,933 --> 00:52:27,333 Speaker 2: this person says, you're pathetic. Oh thanks, okay, thanks wreck. Yeah. 1052 00:52:28,013 --> 00:52:30,292 Speaker 2: Park lights are for when you park on the side 1053 00:52:30,293 --> 00:52:33,533 Speaker 2: of the road, fog lights for in fog driving, lights 1054 00:52:33,573 --> 00:52:35,853 Speaker 2: for driving on the open road. The word gives you 1055 00:52:35,893 --> 00:52:36,293 Speaker 2: the hints. 1056 00:52:37,213 --> 00:52:39,652 Speaker 3: But what you said there is your Castle's it out 1057 00:52:39,653 --> 00:52:42,773 Speaker 3: for you now. There's no need for you to you know, I. 1058 00:52:42,893 --> 00:52:45,373 Speaker 2: Was saying, Warwick, I'm on your side. I'm saying that 1059 00:52:45,413 --> 00:52:49,133 Speaker 2: I have been I have been infantilized by my car. 1060 00:52:49,573 --> 00:52:51,213 Speaker 2: But my cars for the last ten years have been 1061 00:52:51,253 --> 00:52:53,533 Speaker 2: doing everything for me, and as a result, I've lost 1062 00:52:53,533 --> 00:52:56,173 Speaker 2: the ability. It's like the way the Kiwi lost its wings. 1063 00:52:57,213 --> 00:52:59,933 Speaker 2: But it got too easy. There's no natural predators out there. 1064 00:52:59,973 --> 00:53:00,133 Speaker 3: You know. 1065 00:53:00,213 --> 00:53:02,333 Speaker 2: I'm not getting hassled for having the wrong lights on 1066 00:53:02,453 --> 00:53:04,133 Speaker 2: because my car is doing it for me. Anyway. 1067 00:53:04,253 --> 00:53:06,053 Speaker 3: Oh, eight hundred and eighty to eighty is the number 1068 00:53:06,053 --> 00:53:07,293 Speaker 3: to call. Josh how you doing. 1069 00:53:08,693 --> 00:53:12,533 Speaker 15: Yeah, okay, guys, I reckon we should reduce the number 1070 00:53:12,573 --> 00:53:15,613 Speaker 15: of road codes in the country and then redirect that 1071 00:53:15,733 --> 00:53:19,933 Speaker 15: into a public campaign about educating people about road ediquit 1072 00:53:20,013 --> 00:53:25,333 Speaker 15: and manners, particularly around it long weekends and Christmas time, 1073 00:53:25,493 --> 00:53:28,493 Speaker 15: just reminder ads, you know, and it could just be hey, 1074 00:53:28,613 --> 00:53:32,013 Speaker 15: pool left if you're not passing, or all of those 1075 00:53:32,053 --> 00:53:35,053 Speaker 15: sort of things. But either think, I mean, there's some 1076 00:53:35,093 --> 00:53:37,733 Speaker 15: people that would be incredulous and think, well, you know, 1077 00:53:37,813 --> 00:53:39,733 Speaker 15: I paid for the road and not out that attitude, 1078 00:53:39,733 --> 00:53:41,933 Speaker 15: But I think that's a small number. I think most 1079 00:53:41,973 --> 00:53:47,853 Speaker 15: people are just blissfully unawares. And I do a lot 1080 00:53:47,853 --> 00:53:50,652 Speaker 15: of driving. I probably do about fifty k's a year, 1081 00:53:50,973 --> 00:53:52,173 Speaker 15: and I drive the whole. 1082 00:53:52,093 --> 00:53:53,093 Speaker 19: Length of the country. 1083 00:53:53,813 --> 00:53:56,573 Speaker 15: And one thing is I kind of know the roads, 1084 00:53:56,773 --> 00:53:59,253 Speaker 15: you know, And I think a lot of people they 1085 00:53:59,293 --> 00:54:03,493 Speaker 15: don't know the roads. And it's just little things like anticipation. 1086 00:54:03,613 --> 00:54:06,293 Speaker 15: If you're going through Wayuru and you get through that 1087 00:54:06,333 --> 00:54:09,172 Speaker 15: windy bit, you know where it's twenty thirty k there's 1088 00:54:09,213 --> 00:54:12,013 Speaker 15: an opportunity for about three hundred meters to pass a 1089 00:54:12,013 --> 00:54:15,013 Speaker 15: couple of trucks. But you need to know that that's there, 1090 00:54:15,053 --> 00:54:17,093 Speaker 15: and you need to anticipate that and if you've driven 1091 00:54:17,133 --> 00:54:19,172 Speaker 15: that road, you think, hey, there's ten people behind me, 1092 00:54:19,253 --> 00:54:21,253 Speaker 15: so I'll be on that little passing lane as quick 1093 00:54:21,293 --> 00:54:23,293 Speaker 15: as i can and get in front of this truck 1094 00:54:23,333 --> 00:54:25,853 Speaker 15: and sever an house can pass. But I think you know, 1095 00:54:26,293 --> 00:54:30,692 Speaker 15: anticipation awareness, spatial awareness, looking at your mirrors. I think 1096 00:54:30,733 --> 00:54:32,293 Speaker 15: a lot of people they just get in there and 1097 00:54:32,293 --> 00:54:33,453 Speaker 15: they're blissfully unaware. 1098 00:54:33,853 --> 00:54:36,893 Speaker 2: Yeah, saying the other day about just anticipation. Obviously you 1099 00:54:37,173 --> 00:54:38,853 Speaker 2: drive the road a lot, so you know a lot. 1100 00:54:38,933 --> 00:54:41,172 Speaker 2: But even just we were talking about the satur day 1101 00:54:41,173 --> 00:54:46,652 Speaker 2: and someone was saying, drive considering two kilometers ahead at 1102 00:54:46,693 --> 00:54:49,333 Speaker 2: any given time, So you're always considering not just you 1103 00:54:49,373 --> 00:54:52,333 Speaker 2: know the three second rule, but you're also looking into 1104 00:54:52,373 --> 00:54:55,133 Speaker 2: the far distance and thinking about whatever's quite a way 1105 00:54:55,453 --> 00:54:56,013 Speaker 2: in front of you. 1106 00:54:57,253 --> 00:55:00,133 Speaker 15: Well, it's a visual it's a visual sport, you know, 1107 00:55:00,373 --> 00:55:01,733 Speaker 15: you want to call it that, you know, because I 1108 00:55:01,773 --> 00:55:04,253 Speaker 15: mean it's the one thing you can't do with your 1109 00:55:04,253 --> 00:55:07,373 Speaker 15: eyes closed. And so you know you've got you've got 1110 00:55:07,413 --> 00:55:09,813 Speaker 15: the mirrors there for reason, just like you've got a 1111 00:55:09,853 --> 00:55:13,093 Speaker 15: seat belt. There's a reason for it, right, And I 1112 00:55:13,213 --> 00:55:15,413 Speaker 15: just think that now, like say, if you ride a motorbike, 1113 00:55:15,573 --> 00:55:17,773 Speaker 15: everything's on your vision because you know you've got to 1114 00:55:17,773 --> 00:55:19,653 Speaker 15: be looking ahead, you've got to be looking at hazards 1115 00:55:19,653 --> 00:55:21,653 Speaker 15: on the road because you can't just drive over gravel 1116 00:55:21,733 --> 00:55:24,172 Speaker 15: like a car. You've got to hit the corner at 1117 00:55:24,173 --> 00:55:27,733 Speaker 15: the right place, entry speed, exit speed. It's just you 1118 00:55:27,853 --> 00:55:30,053 Speaker 15: kind of have to just know what you're doing. And 1119 00:55:30,133 --> 00:55:32,613 Speaker 15: I just feel like people hop in a car and 1120 00:55:32,893 --> 00:55:36,493 Speaker 15: it's probably the most dangerous activity for the average person 1121 00:55:36,893 --> 00:55:39,453 Speaker 15: they will ever undertake in their whole life. They won't 1122 00:55:39,533 --> 00:55:41,652 Speaker 15: jump out of a plane with a parachute, but they'll 1123 00:55:41,653 --> 00:55:43,772 Speaker 15: hop on that car and they'll do that mundane drive 1124 00:55:43,853 --> 00:55:46,253 Speaker 15: every day. And I think it's like complacency. 1125 00:55:46,573 --> 00:55:49,253 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think there's a thing that's going on. 1126 00:55:49,333 --> 00:55:51,933 Speaker 2: It kind of plays into the safetyism of society that 1127 00:55:52,573 --> 00:55:54,533 Speaker 2: sounds like it might be contradictory ideas, But if if 1128 00:55:54,533 --> 00:55:57,053 Speaker 2: you're going down an escalator and you're told constantly to 1129 00:55:57,413 --> 00:55:59,732 Speaker 2: watch your step when you get off, then I think 1130 00:55:59,893 --> 00:56:02,373 Speaker 2: young people coming through feel like everything's going to be 1131 00:56:02,373 --> 00:56:04,293 Speaker 2: sorted for them. And then when you get out into 1132 00:56:04,333 --> 00:56:06,853 Speaker 2: a car, you have to make a whole lot of decisions, 1133 00:56:06,853 --> 00:56:09,453 Speaker 2: and they can be life or death situations where you 1134 00:56:09,573 --> 00:56:12,893 Speaker 2: actually need to be the kind of person that's competent 1135 00:56:13,053 --> 00:56:15,732 Speaker 2: and learned to look out for dangers. So the more 1136 00:56:15,813 --> 00:56:18,093 Speaker 2: we can you see kind of what I'm saying, It's 1137 00:56:18,173 --> 00:56:20,693 Speaker 2: kind of like two contradictory ideas. But the one place, 1138 00:56:20,773 --> 00:56:22,292 Speaker 2: and I say this to my kids all the time, 1139 00:56:22,373 --> 00:56:24,733 Speaker 2: the most as you say, Josh, the most dangerous thing 1140 00:56:24,773 --> 00:56:27,733 Speaker 2: you will ever do in your life is drive between cities. 1141 00:56:28,373 --> 00:56:29,733 Speaker 2: Absolutely dangerous. 1142 00:56:30,293 --> 00:56:33,293 Speaker 15: So go back that up with acc I mean, you know, 1143 00:56:33,413 --> 00:56:36,133 Speaker 15: like I mean, you know, people can work under and 1144 00:56:36,133 --> 00:56:39,013 Speaker 15: the helicopters and and they'll drive home and get and 1145 00:56:39,093 --> 00:56:39,973 Speaker 15: kill them killed. 1146 00:56:39,813 --> 00:56:40,212 Speaker 4: In the car. 1147 00:56:40,573 --> 00:56:44,893 Speaker 15: Yeah, well by somebody else. So because you're also not 1148 00:56:44,973 --> 00:56:47,533 Speaker 15: relying on yourself, you're relying on someone else. Yeah, and 1149 00:56:48,053 --> 00:56:49,933 Speaker 15: you might be a great driver and get taken out 1150 00:56:50,013 --> 00:56:51,573 Speaker 15: by someone who's just done a silly thing. 1151 00:56:52,253 --> 00:56:52,493 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1152 00:56:52,653 --> 00:56:55,173 Speaker 3: I wonder if it is, Josh, sorry to jump in there, 1153 00:56:55,213 --> 00:56:56,853 Speaker 3: I wonder if it is. You know, Matt, you talked 1154 00:56:56,853 --> 00:56:59,253 Speaker 3: about the auto lights you got going on, or you 1155 00:56:59,253 --> 00:57:01,732 Speaker 3: don't have to worry about gears. I imagine you got 1156 00:57:01,733 --> 00:57:04,413 Speaker 3: cruise controlled because it's a beautiful car. All that stuff 1157 00:57:04,453 --> 00:57:06,733 Speaker 3: is great. At least you are learning to drive. I 1158 00:57:06,773 --> 00:57:10,253 Speaker 3: mean that means you just go into autopilot mode, and 1159 00:57:10,333 --> 00:57:13,973 Speaker 3: as you say, Josh blissfully blissfully is unaware, dangerous people. 1160 00:57:14,173 --> 00:57:16,453 Speaker 2: Everyone's crucifying us. And the text message about calling it 1161 00:57:16,493 --> 00:57:18,173 Speaker 2: the fast lane, but you know what we mean by 1162 00:57:18,173 --> 00:57:21,653 Speaker 2: the fast lane, the passing the right lane. But but 1163 00:57:21,733 --> 00:57:24,453 Speaker 2: that's the thing. There's so many people just seeing zoned out, 1164 00:57:24,613 --> 00:57:27,853 Speaker 2: just driving along at the you know, holding people up, 1165 00:57:27,893 --> 00:57:30,053 Speaker 2: not getting out of the passing lane when they're and 1166 00:57:30,133 --> 00:57:32,413 Speaker 2: just using that because they're zoned out, because the car 1167 00:57:32,453 --> 00:57:34,333 Speaker 2: does everything for them until it doesn't. 1168 00:57:34,413 --> 00:57:36,693 Speaker 15: Well, it's called being present, doesn't that. I think that, 1169 00:57:36,773 --> 00:57:39,493 Speaker 15: you know, like it's something I concentrate on, and I 1170 00:57:39,533 --> 00:57:43,013 Speaker 15: take it very seriously. I'm always present. I'm always the 1171 00:57:43,013 --> 00:57:45,413 Speaker 15: person that will offer to drive everyone else because I 1172 00:57:45,533 --> 00:57:47,733 Speaker 15: know that when I sit on that seat, I am present, 1173 00:57:48,253 --> 00:57:50,573 Speaker 15: you know, and I'm not going to farm out my 1174 00:57:50,613 --> 00:57:54,293 Speaker 15: safety to too many other people, and so I take 1175 00:57:54,293 --> 00:57:57,293 Speaker 15: it seriously. I think your professional drivers, like your truck drivers, 1176 00:57:57,293 --> 00:58:00,013 Speaker 15: are people who drive equipment. They know the consequences of 1177 00:58:00,133 --> 00:58:03,893 Speaker 15: mistakes because you know these things they can't stop easy 1178 00:58:04,053 --> 00:58:06,573 Speaker 15: or you know, there's there's there's a bit of danger 1179 00:58:06,613 --> 00:58:09,813 Speaker 15: in there. And I think people like this cruise control 1180 00:58:09,893 --> 00:58:13,453 Speaker 15: and active lane as I hate all that stuff because 1181 00:58:13,573 --> 00:58:16,253 Speaker 15: I want to be in charge of the vehicle, not 1182 00:58:16,253 --> 00:58:18,493 Speaker 15: not farming out to somebody else. And I think a 1183 00:58:18,533 --> 00:58:20,573 Speaker 15: bit like you're thinking, we do. I tell you what, 1184 00:58:20,733 --> 00:58:24,573 Speaker 15: you couldn't get two people and a beautifully flat surface 1185 00:58:24,893 --> 00:58:27,933 Speaker 15: like a big open car park to drive towards each 1186 00:58:27,933 --> 00:58:30,533 Speaker 15: other at one hundred kilometers an hour and day.

Ray Lane. And we're talking about 1232 01:00:54,453 --> 01:00:57,613 Speaker 3: driving in the fast lane. I'm sticking with fast land. Yeah, 1233 01:00:57,693 --> 01:00:59,893 Speaker 3: come for me if you want on nine two nine two. 1234 01:01:00,133 --> 01:01:02,093 Speaker 3: But on the right hand lane. We all know it, 1235 01:01:02,133 --> 01:01:04,733 Speaker 3: and apparently Kiwis can't seem to follow that rule. 1236 01:01:04,613 --> 01:01:06,813 Speaker 2: Very I think you can just live in there. You can't. 1237 01:01:06,853 --> 01:01:08,733 Speaker 2: You're only in there when you're passing and you get 1238 01:01:08,773 --> 01:01:11,693 Speaker 2: back into the lane, the other lane, in the middle 1239 01:01:11,773 --> 01:01:13,373 Speaker 2: lane if you want, or if you're super slow, you 1240 01:01:13,413 --> 01:01:15,653 Speaker 2: go into the other lane. People need to know that. 1241 01:01:15,693 --> 01:01:18,933 Speaker 2: But we're also saying that, Look, there's a lot of 1242 01:01:18,933 --> 01:01:21,413 Speaker 2: these things that people just don't know. There's people out 1243 01:01:21,453 --> 01:01:23,453 Speaker 2: there driving that don't know any of these roles. I 1244 01:01:23,493 --> 01:01:25,213 Speaker 2: think a lot of people that are in that fast 1245 01:01:25,293 --> 01:01:28,293 Speaker 2: lane don't know, don't know that you're They just think 1246 01:01:28,333 --> 01:01:30,293 Speaker 2: that's an opportunity. If there's less people in it, then 1247 01:01:30,293 --> 01:01:31,853 Speaker 2: that's their gap. 1248 01:01:31,573 --> 01:01:31,693 Speaker 7: Ye. 1249 01:01:31,973 --> 01:01:33,933 Speaker 3: They're not being malicious, they just don't know. But that 1250 01:01:34,133 --> 01:01:36,053 Speaker 3: is the fast lane. Yeah, if you're in that lane, 1251 01:01:36,093 --> 01:01:37,053 Speaker 3: you've got to go fast. 1252 01:01:37,133 --> 01:01:39,173 Speaker 2: So I eight hundred and eighty ten eighty things that 1253 01:01:39,213 --> 01:01:41,133 Speaker 2: people don't seem to know that they should know. That 1254 01:01:41,173 --> 01:01:43,733 Speaker 2: would make the roads flow a lot better. Now, I 1255 01:01:43,773 --> 01:01:46,653 Speaker 2: was saying before about get really annoyed, and this is 1256 01:01:46,773 --> 01:01:50,253 Speaker 2: on and off the topic. Get terribly annoyed when I'm 1257 01:01:50,253 --> 01:01:54,013 Speaker 2: at the airport and they just have this constant audio 1258 01:01:54,613 --> 01:01:57,973 Speaker 2: playing every twenty seconds when you're coming down the escalator 1259 01:01:58,013 --> 01:01:59,893 Speaker 2: saying mind just step when you're getting off the escalator, 1260 01:02:00,133 --> 01:02:03,733 Speaker 2: And I just think it's the infantilization of humanity the 1261 01:02:03,773 --> 01:02:06,013 Speaker 2: safety culture. It's like, it's insulting to think that I 1262 01:02:06,053 --> 01:02:09,493 Speaker 2: can't get off an escalator. This EXTA sees airports have 1263 01:02:09,573 --> 01:02:11,413 Speaker 2: that message on the airport escalators as part of their 1264 01:02:11,453 --> 01:02:13,933 Speaker 2: liabilities under the Health and Safety Act of two thousand 1265 01:02:13,933 --> 01:02:15,893 Speaker 2: and four. If there's a mishap, then the authority will 1266 01:02:15,893 --> 01:02:19,013 Speaker 2: be all over them like white on rice fees and 1267 01:02:19,093 --> 01:02:23,133 Speaker 2: sewing cheers and Yeah, but that's then that means whoever 1268 01:02:23,573 --> 01:02:26,733 Speaker 2: is responsible for that in the Health and Safety Act 1269 01:02:26,773 --> 01:02:28,533 Speaker 2: of two thousand and four should be tasted for it. 1270 01:02:29,293 --> 01:02:31,973 Speaker 2: This this text is said, and they've texted about ten times. 1271 01:02:32,293 --> 01:02:34,813 Speaker 2: I've retrieved a bunch of fingers and toes from escalators. 1272 01:02:34,853 --> 01:02:35,653 Speaker 2: It's not much fun. 1273 01:02:35,733 --> 01:02:39,253 Speaker 3: Wow, Really, we need more, we need more information. I 1274 01:02:39,293 --> 01:02:40,253 Speaker 3: get the context of that. 1275 01:02:40,373 --> 01:02:42,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, how do you get your fingers and toes into 1276 01:02:42,093 --> 01:02:44,893 Speaker 2: an escalator? It's got the little slightly bit and do you. 1277 01:02:44,813 --> 01:02:46,813 Speaker 3: Work a forty hour week for that? I mean, how many. 1278 01:02:46,893 --> 01:02:49,693 Speaker 2: People people riding the escalator and beer feet and it happens? 1279 01:02:49,693 --> 01:02:51,373 Speaker 2: I mean, who's getting off a plane and beer feet 1280 01:02:51,413 --> 01:02:53,533 Speaker 2: and the risk of their fingers and toes? How do 1281 01:02:53,573 --> 01:02:55,173 Speaker 2: you get your fingers into an escalator? 1282 01:02:55,253 --> 01:02:55,453 Speaker 12: Yeah? 1283 01:02:55,453 --> 01:02:57,533 Speaker 3: I can understand toes, fingers. 1284 01:02:58,053 --> 01:03:01,173 Speaker 2: I mean I've read somewhere that escalators are the safest 1285 01:03:01,173 --> 01:03:02,493 Speaker 2: one of transport in the world. 1286 01:03:02,973 --> 01:03:05,373 Speaker 3: You see where it goes wrong though, and it's not 1287 01:03:05,493 --> 01:03:06,013 Speaker 3: it's not good. 1288 01:03:06,093 --> 01:03:08,973 Speaker 2: No, that's lifts. No, that's lifts. 1289 01:03:09,053 --> 01:03:11,813 Speaker 3: But yeah, really, fingers and toes text and we want 1290 01:03:11,813 --> 01:03:12,253 Speaker 3: to hear more. 1291 01:03:13,573 --> 01:03:16,093 Speaker 2: You've texted five times the same text on the fingers 1292 01:03:16,093 --> 01:03:18,853 Speaker 2: and toes where Now, yeah, you're right, Tyler, we need 1293 01:03:18,853 --> 01:03:20,093 Speaker 2: more information on that story. 1294 01:03:19,853 --> 01:03:21,573 Speaker 3: And we chase that person up Andrew. We'll just see 1295 01:03:21,573 --> 01:03:22,493 Speaker 3: if we can get them on the blower. 1296 01:03:22,893 --> 01:03:25,333 Speaker 2: Craig, you reckon. There's three types of people on the road. 1297 01:03:26,333 --> 01:03:29,133 Speaker 17: Yeah, man, I do. I'm with you, Matt. I think 1298 01:03:29,213 --> 01:03:31,573 Speaker 17: the auto motorways the worst for it. When you're seeing 1299 01:03:31,613 --> 01:03:34,573 Speaker 17: to get out on the bomb Bays. On those expressways, 1300 01:03:34,573 --> 01:03:36,813 Speaker 17: you don't tend to have the bottom so much. But 1301 01:03:36,893 --> 01:03:40,693 Speaker 17: I think you've got a person that's not confident driving, 1302 01:03:41,333 --> 01:03:43,573 Speaker 17: and they know if they get in that right lane 1303 01:03:43,613 --> 01:03:46,133 Speaker 17: at Silverdale, they can get all the way to the 1304 01:03:46,133 --> 01:03:50,373 Speaker 17: Bombay Hills and it'll take them all those ways through safely. 1305 01:03:50,453 --> 01:03:54,013 Speaker 17: So they just stick in that lane knowing that it'll 1306 01:03:54,013 --> 01:03:56,653 Speaker 17: get them right for a walk clan without a handful, 1307 01:03:58,093 --> 01:04:00,573 Speaker 17: and as soon as they get out of Walford, they'll 1308 01:04:00,613 --> 01:04:05,013 Speaker 17: tend to stick in the left late. You've got also 1309 01:04:05,053 --> 01:04:08,933 Speaker 17: got the people that and I can't stand. They'll stick 1310 01:04:09,013 --> 01:04:12,133 Speaker 17: to the speed limits. That's the speed limit, that's the 1311 01:04:12,613 --> 01:04:16,253 Speaker 17: that's my right and I'll stay here, you know. And 1312 01:04:16,293 --> 01:04:19,493 Speaker 17: then they're the biggest problem because you don't know why 1313 01:04:19,573 --> 01:04:25,093 Speaker 17: someone's having to go fast that day. And and there's 1314 01:04:25,453 --> 01:04:28,133 Speaker 17: some good, valid reasons why some people have to rush, 1315 01:04:28,213 --> 01:04:32,653 Speaker 17: you know. And so I think the big one is 1316 01:04:33,013 --> 01:04:36,653 Speaker 17: not confident drivers and especially in the Auckland Motorway, they 1317 01:04:36,693 --> 01:04:38,853 Speaker 17: know that they can stick on that one lane and 1318 01:04:38,893 --> 01:04:40,013 Speaker 17: it will get them right through. 1319 01:04:41,293 --> 01:04:43,053 Speaker 2: Yeah, and so they. 1320 01:04:42,933 --> 01:04:46,453 Speaker 17: Do it, you know, whereas the middle lanes for that 1321 01:04:46,453 --> 01:04:48,253 Speaker 17: that gets them right through it. Well, but they don't 1322 01:04:48,253 --> 01:04:49,133 Speaker 17: need to know that one. 1323 01:04:49,493 --> 01:04:50,853 Speaker 2: Yeah. I just don't think people know. 1324 01:04:52,053 --> 01:04:52,093 Speaker 20: No. 1325 01:04:52,933 --> 01:04:55,253 Speaker 17: And it's like the left lane to me on the motorway, 1326 01:04:55,333 --> 01:04:57,693 Speaker 17: the left lanes to get off and off you're in 1327 01:04:57,693 --> 01:05:00,413 Speaker 17: the middle, yes, once you're on the motorway. 1328 01:05:00,613 --> 01:05:03,173 Speaker 2: Yeah, So you get on the motorway and you're in 1329 01:05:03,173 --> 01:05:04,853 Speaker 2: the left lane, and then you make your way to 1330 01:05:04,893 --> 01:05:07,573 Speaker 2: the middle lane unless you're passing someone, and then you 1331 01:05:07,613 --> 01:05:09,533 Speaker 2: go into the right lane. And if you've passed that 1332 01:05:09,573 --> 01:05:11,373 Speaker 2: person in the middle lane, you then go back into 1333 01:05:11,373 --> 01:05:13,773 Speaker 2: the middle lane. And then as you say, Craig, when 1334 01:05:13,773 --> 01:05:15,653 Speaker 2: you get when you're about to get off, you then 1335 01:05:15,853 --> 01:05:17,573 Speaker 2: make your way over to the left lane. 1336 01:05:17,653 --> 01:05:20,053 Speaker 3: Yeah, makes sense because there's no reason you should be 1337 01:05:20,053 --> 01:05:22,013 Speaker 3: in the right lane. It's not like you can get 1338 01:05:22,013 --> 01:05:23,653 Speaker 3: off the motor on the right lane. So there's no 1339 01:05:23,733 --> 01:05:26,453 Speaker 3: reason to be in that unless you're living life in 1340 01:05:26,493 --> 01:05:27,093 Speaker 3: the first lane. 1341 01:05:27,093 --> 01:05:30,013 Speaker 17: That is the first lane, okay, and peak our traffic 1342 01:05:30,053 --> 01:05:31,693 Speaker 17: in the morning. I'm going to truck every morning, and 1343 01:05:31,773 --> 01:05:34,293 Speaker 17: a peak our traffic. I get on the motorway at 1344 01:05:34,293 --> 01:05:36,773 Speaker 17: Silverdale and I get it all the way through to 1345 01:05:36,853 --> 01:05:40,493 Speaker 17: the Harbor Bridge without breaking, and I just keep trucking 1346 01:05:40,533 --> 01:05:43,533 Speaker 17: a low gear. I stick in the middle lane, and 1347 01:05:43,693 --> 01:05:47,053 Speaker 17: the cars go miles ahead, and then I'm up on them, 1348 01:05:47,493 --> 01:05:49,573 Speaker 17: and they by the time i'm on them, they're moving. 1349 01:05:50,013 --> 01:05:52,293 Speaker 17: But I don't have to break once, but everyone else 1350 01:05:52,373 --> 01:05:54,893 Speaker 17: is on and off. It breaks constantly, and it's just 1351 01:05:55,533 --> 01:05:57,773 Speaker 17: I don't know what it is. People just don't watch. 1352 01:05:57,773 --> 01:06:03,933 Speaker 17: Some let people in, and they they're most courteous when 1353 01:06:03,973 --> 01:06:05,173 Speaker 17: all the traffic lights are out. 1354 01:06:05,653 --> 01:06:10,013 Speaker 3: Well yeah, yeah, when something goes mem politeness comes out. 1355 01:06:10,693 --> 01:06:14,493 Speaker 17: And the traffic flows so much better without the traffic lights, 1356 01:06:15,053 --> 01:06:16,693 Speaker 17: you know, because people let people in. 1357 01:06:17,053 --> 01:06:20,293 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I'd agree with that. I mean, surely, Craig, 1358 01:06:20,333 --> 01:06:22,813 Speaker 3: there's a large part of arrogance here. Maybe not on 1359 01:06:22,853 --> 01:06:27,293 Speaker 3: the Auckland motorways, but when I say the White Cattle Express, 1360 01:06:27,293 --> 01:06:29,173 Speaker 3: when I've been on that and someone's been in the 1361 01:06:29,253 --> 01:06:32,413 Speaker 3: right lane and they go and bang on a hundred 1362 01:06:32,613 --> 01:06:35,613 Speaker 3: and it might be one hundred and ten. I assume 1363 01:06:35,733 --> 01:06:38,533 Speaker 3: those people there's a touch of arrogance there that they 1364 01:06:38,533 --> 01:06:40,733 Speaker 3: think they do in the speed limit and nobody else 1365 01:06:40,813 --> 01:06:41,973 Speaker 3: is going to get around them. 1366 01:06:42,773 --> 01:06:45,093 Speaker 17: Oh that's one. And they want to place the road 1367 01:06:45,133 --> 01:06:47,333 Speaker 17: for everybody. But I don't see that so much on 1368 01:06:47,413 --> 01:06:49,893 Speaker 17: those expressways. In fact, I don't know. I never really 1369 01:06:49,973 --> 01:06:51,693 Speaker 17: see that. You know, I can go through it a 1370 01:06:51,813 --> 01:06:54,013 Speaker 17: one hundred and fifteen because it's one hundred and ten 1371 01:06:55,133 --> 01:07:00,173 Speaker 17: and it's you don't at that highest speed, you don't 1372 01:07:00,293 --> 01:07:02,493 Speaker 17: seem to get the people holding you up in the 1373 01:07:02,813 --> 01:07:06,253 Speaker 17: right hand lane as you do on the Orcy Motorway. 1374 01:07:07,213 --> 01:07:09,493 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll think if you all, Craig, see this is 1375 01:07:09,533 --> 01:07:12,333 Speaker 2: what Don Henley was singing in the Eagles, wasn't he 1376 01:07:12,373 --> 01:07:14,973 Speaker 2: in seventy one? Yeah, when you see I say, laugh 1377 01:07:15,053 --> 01:07:18,813 Speaker 2: in the fast lean Charlotte and make you lose your man, 1378 01:07:19,333 --> 01:07:20,693 Speaker 2: laugh in the vast lane. 1379 01:07:21,133 --> 01:07:25,053 Speaker 3: He nailed it. Listen to him nice sinking as well, Matt. 1380 01:07:25,213 --> 01:07:28,453 Speaker 2: He was talking about New Zealand traffic and people's propensity 1381 01:07:28,773 --> 01:07:31,013 Speaker 2: to lose their mind and zone out. We're in there 1382 01:07:31,013 --> 01:07:34,213 Speaker 2: passing passing the right Laneyah. 1383 01:07:33,853 --> 01:07:35,253 Speaker 3: What a karaoke tune as well. 1384 01:07:35,333 --> 01:07:37,573 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's harder to sing than you think. I mean, 1385 01:07:37,613 --> 01:07:38,253 Speaker 2: I nailed it. 1386 01:07:38,333 --> 01:07:40,053 Speaker 3: You did pretty well. Then you got to say, actually, 1387 01:07:40,053 --> 01:07:40,453 Speaker 3: world up. 1388 01:07:40,493 --> 01:07:43,893 Speaker 2: You know, it's probably a few few octaves off where 1389 01:07:43,933 --> 01:07:44,773 Speaker 2: Don had on it. 1390 01:07:45,413 --> 01:07:47,413 Speaker 3: Oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number 1391 01:07:47,453 --> 01:07:50,173 Speaker 3: to call. We'll take more of your thoughts on this 1392 01:07:50,533 --> 01:07:53,053 Speaker 3: very shortly, and if you want to change nine nine 1393 01:07:53,133 --> 01:07:54,373 Speaker 3: two you see something. 1394 01:07:54,613 --> 01:07:56,293 Speaker 2: I'll just have to sort of weigh up whither I'm 1395 01:07:56,293 --> 01:07:58,893 Speaker 2: going to read that text out or not. I think 1396 01:07:58,933 --> 01:07:59,253 Speaker 2: I will. 1397 01:07:59,373 --> 01:08:02,373 Speaker 3: Okay, that's going to be going nineteen to three shocking. 1398 01:08:04,213 --> 01:08:07,693 Speaker 1: Mattie Taylor Adams with you as your afternoon rolls on 1399 01:08:07,893 --> 01:08:10,933 Speaker 1: Mattie Taylor Adams Afternoons used talk. 1400 01:08:10,973 --> 01:08:13,813 Speaker 3: Sa'd be very good afternoon to you. So we're talking 1401 01:08:13,853 --> 01:08:18,692 Speaker 3: about why Kiwis don't understand the right right lane rule 1402 01:08:18,693 --> 01:08:21,853 Speaker 3: when it comes to being in the fast lane, and 1403 01:08:21,853 --> 01:08:23,893 Speaker 3: it is the fast lane if you want to get 1404 01:08:23,933 --> 01:08:25,772 Speaker 3: somewhere a little bit quicker than other people who were 1405 01:08:25,772 --> 01:08:27,612 Speaker 3: going under the speed limit, the right lane is the 1406 01:08:27,692 --> 01:08:30,372 Speaker 3: lane you need to be in. But apparently kiwis don't 1407 01:08:30,412 --> 01:08:32,452 Speaker 3: understand that. But we've also asked, if we're going to 1408 01:08:32,772 --> 01:08:36,173 Speaker 3: introduce some sort of refresher course for driver's licenses, what 1409 01:08:36,293 --> 01:08:39,412 Speaker 3: other mistakes do we make constantly on the road. 1410 01:08:39,572 --> 01:08:41,452 Speaker 2: Great text from Reuben here that I can't read out. 1411 01:08:42,053 --> 01:08:46,932 Speaker 2: It's very sexual metaphors run there. Amuses me, but probably 1412 01:08:46,973 --> 01:08:48,412 Speaker 2: not for the airwaves. 1413 01:08:47,933 --> 01:08:49,852 Speaker 3: And quite spot on as well. If only we could 1414 01:08:49,893 --> 01:08:50,412 Speaker 3: read that out. 1415 01:08:50,532 --> 01:08:52,333 Speaker 2: I mean, it describes it exactly the situation. 1416 01:08:52,412 --> 01:08:54,853 Speaker 3: It does great analogy, but in such lude. 1417 01:08:54,572 --> 01:08:57,293 Speaker 2: Sexual terms that I'm sure I could read it out. Hey, 1418 01:08:57,293 --> 01:09:00,372 Speaker 2: this is the text here that I've decided to read out, 1419 01:09:00,492 --> 01:09:03,492 Speaker 2: even though I probably shouldn't. Yep, and interesting because I've 1420 01:09:03,492 --> 01:09:05,532 Speaker 2: decided not to read out that sexual one, which I 1421 01:09:05,532 --> 01:09:07,093 Speaker 2: think was it made a lot of sense. But I 1422 01:09:07,093 --> 01:09:09,412 Speaker 2: will read out this one, okay, which which I'll be 1423 01:09:09,452 --> 01:09:12,572 Speaker 2: interested to people hear people thoughts. I see myself as 1424 01:09:12,572 --> 01:09:15,253 Speaker 2: a road vigilante CSUS TEXTA. Someone has to do it. 1425 01:09:15,293 --> 01:09:17,333 Speaker 2: If someone is driving in the right hand land and 1426 01:09:17,532 --> 01:09:21,133 Speaker 2: lane and not moving out, I'll pass them on the inside, 1427 01:09:21,213 --> 01:09:23,133 Speaker 2: pull in just in front of them, and then start 1428 01:09:23,173 --> 01:09:25,732 Speaker 2: speeding up and slowing down to mess with them if 1429 01:09:25,732 --> 01:09:28,972 Speaker 2: they move to the middle. I follow you woke soft seas. 1430 01:09:29,652 --> 01:09:32,572 Speaker 2: We'll probably cry about this, but at least I'm doing 1431 01:09:32,612 --> 01:09:35,333 Speaker 2: something about the problem and not just whinging about it 1432 01:09:35,612 --> 01:09:36,293 Speaker 2: on the radio. 1433 01:09:36,692 --> 01:09:39,333 Speaker 3: Wow. Well the seat you and you Windo was was minimal, 1434 01:09:39,692 --> 01:09:41,972 Speaker 3: But that is that's a hell of a stance to take. 1435 01:09:42,293 --> 01:09:43,932 Speaker 2: Have you ever heard him say I see myself as 1436 01:09:43,933 --> 01:09:47,452 Speaker 2: a vigilantes? Never a good start. If you ever see 1437 01:09:47,452 --> 01:09:49,732 Speaker 2: yourself as a vigilante, that's when it's time to pump 1438 01:09:49,772 --> 01:09:50,052 Speaker 2: the brakes. 1439 01:09:50,053 --> 01:09:51,372 Speaker 3: So what if you have to if you see that 1440 01:09:51,452 --> 01:09:53,212 Speaker 3: guy out on the road just sick. 1441 01:09:53,452 --> 01:09:56,133 Speaker 2: Part of the pud not pump the brakes like this, guys, 1442 01:09:56,333 --> 01:10:00,532 Speaker 2: pump the brakes and your vigilanteism. Christine, welcome to the show. 1443 01:10:00,532 --> 01:10:04,333 Speaker 2: You're not the possessed car, Christine? Are you? 1444 01:10:04,333 --> 01:10:04,532 Speaker 18: No? 1445 01:10:04,612 --> 01:10:05,133 Speaker 21: That's not me? 1446 01:10:05,293 --> 01:10:09,293 Speaker 18: No, that's good. I just ring in the out The 1447 01:10:09,412 --> 01:10:11,852 Speaker 18: people who sit in the right hand lane's there's a 1448 01:10:11,853 --> 01:10:14,692 Speaker 18: really simple solution that's done overseas on the right hand 1449 01:10:14,732 --> 01:10:17,452 Speaker 18: line above the bridges, et cetera. But just a sign 1450 01:10:17,492 --> 01:10:19,172 Speaker 18: is saying overtaking only. 1451 01:10:21,093 --> 01:10:22,772 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've never seen that sign. 1452 01:10:23,293 --> 01:10:24,852 Speaker 3: Do they have been on passing lanes? 1453 01:10:24,933 --> 01:10:26,093 Speaker 2: You've seen it? Have you seen it. 1454 01:10:26,213 --> 01:10:29,933 Speaker 18: Christ it's on the right hand lane overseas. I've seen it. 1455 01:10:30,933 --> 01:10:32,732 Speaker 2: I missed overseas. Yeah, I just have never seen it. 1456 01:10:33,732 --> 01:10:34,012 Speaker 16: Yeah. 1457 01:10:34,412 --> 01:10:37,253 Speaker 18: So and that's all it takes, and that's that solves it. 1458 01:10:37,853 --> 01:10:40,133 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean I think you're right. I think 1459 01:10:40,253 --> 01:10:43,933 Speaker 2: no one. I think no one. No one knows. I 1460 01:10:43,933 --> 01:10:45,333 Speaker 2: mean not no one knows. But I think a lot 1461 01:10:45,333 --> 01:10:47,453 Speaker 2: of the people that are doing this just just blindly 1462 01:10:47,452 --> 01:10:50,052 Speaker 2: don't know. They think that they're just driving along. They're 1463 01:10:50,093 --> 01:10:52,093 Speaker 2: happy as there, and they think, oh, this is an 1464 01:10:52,093 --> 01:10:53,412 Speaker 2: interesting lane. There don't seem to be a. 1465 01:10:53,412 --> 01:10:55,692 Speaker 3: Lot of people in it. I'll just stay here. Maybe 1466 01:10:55,692 --> 01:10:58,492 Speaker 3: it's the multi lane thing that confuses people, because arguably, 1467 01:10:58,812 --> 01:11:00,852 Speaker 3: if you've got four lanes, then three of them can 1468 01:11:00,933 --> 01:11:02,972 Speaker 3: be considered right right lanes. 1469 01:11:04,412 --> 01:11:07,972 Speaker 18: Well, the sign is over the outside right hand lane, 1470 01:11:07,973 --> 01:11:10,812 Speaker 18: which decided that somebody the country you're in, so that 1471 01:11:10,973 --> 01:11:13,692 Speaker 18: lane is Stata airs it's overtaking only. 1472 01:11:14,492 --> 01:11:17,732 Speaker 2: Yeah. Oh well, yeah, thank you. If you call Christine, 1473 01:11:17,853 --> 01:11:19,213 Speaker 2: we do seem to see a lot of signs for 1474 01:11:19,293 --> 01:11:20,092 Speaker 2: a lot of other things. 1475 01:11:20,253 --> 01:11:23,053 Speaker 3: Yeah, great movie and book by the way, Chris, Christine, Yeah, 1476 01:11:23,093 --> 01:11:28,412 Speaker 3: good movie. Yeah, frightening, very scary. Possessed car yeah, hey boys. 1477 01:11:28,532 --> 01:11:31,053 Speaker 3: One thing that really frustrates me is the flow of 1478 01:11:31,333 --> 01:11:34,973 Speaker 3: traffic is people not pulling over to the left, just 1479 01:11:35,053 --> 01:11:38,052 Speaker 3: that one down there pulling over to the left when turning, 1480 01:11:38,173 --> 01:11:40,572 Speaker 3: especially when roads are wide and there is that strip 1481 01:11:40,612 --> 01:11:42,652 Speaker 3: to the left of the lane. They slow down and 1482 01:11:42,692 --> 01:11:45,772 Speaker 3: the main flow of traffic slowing everyone else behind them. 1483 01:11:45,893 --> 01:11:48,812 Speaker 3: They just don't seem to have any realization of traffic 1484 01:11:48,853 --> 01:11:50,892 Speaker 3: behind them. I see it every day, five times a day. 1485 01:11:51,293 --> 01:11:53,692 Speaker 3: I thought I was taught to pull left, mind you, 1486 01:11:53,772 --> 01:11:56,293 Speaker 3: that was forty plus years ago. Yeah, that is a 1487 01:11:56,293 --> 01:12:00,013 Speaker 3: great point. So that is when you're someone wants to 1488 01:12:00,053 --> 01:12:03,293 Speaker 3: turn off to maybe a group of shots or the mall, 1489 01:12:03,572 --> 01:12:06,572 Speaker 3: and there's a wee left hand element that they can 1490 01:12:06,692 --> 01:12:08,932 Speaker 3: kind of go that way, get off the main road, 1491 01:12:09,333 --> 01:12:12,053 Speaker 3: and then start to turn left into wherever they're going. Yeah, 1492 01:12:12,053 --> 01:12:13,612 Speaker 3: a lot of people just stay on the main load 1493 01:12:13,652 --> 01:12:18,492 Speaker 3: and then hard left or hard break instead of just 1494 01:12:18,572 --> 01:12:20,972 Speaker 3: moving slightly to the left where there's a wee lane 1495 01:12:21,013 --> 01:12:23,692 Speaker 3: that has been created for you to just slowly. I 1496 01:12:23,692 --> 01:12:25,213 Speaker 3: see what you're saying, go where you need to go. 1497 01:12:25,333 --> 01:12:27,173 Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean some of that can be put down 1498 01:12:27,213 --> 01:12:31,692 Speaker 2: to panicking and missing missing your turn off and those 1499 01:12:31,772 --> 01:12:32,133 Speaker 2: kind of things. 1500 01:12:32,173 --> 01:12:35,652 Speaker 3: There's a lot of that as well. Yeah, Darren, how 1501 01:12:35,692 --> 01:12:36,572 Speaker 3: are you this afternoon? 1502 01:12:38,093 --> 01:12:38,972 Speaker 15: Yeah, good, thank you. 1503 01:12:40,093 --> 01:12:43,973 Speaker 3: And thoughts on the passing lane, it's not a. 1504 01:12:44,372 --> 01:12:45,412 Speaker 14: Yeah there's a passing lane. 1505 01:12:45,492 --> 01:12:48,372 Speaker 20: Yeah, the passing lane to use it the path of car. 1506 01:12:49,452 --> 01:12:53,293 Speaker 20: If there's nothing else you need to pass, we'll move 1507 01:12:53,333 --> 01:12:53,852 Speaker 20: to the left. 1508 01:12:53,973 --> 01:12:56,293 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I'll just because you were going to give me, 1509 01:12:56,452 --> 01:12:57,732 Speaker 3: give me a bit of a bit of stick for 1510 01:12:57,732 --> 01:12:59,452 Speaker 3: calling at the fast lane, which is fair enough, darre 1511 01:12:59,452 --> 01:13:01,293 Speaker 3: and so you reckon it should be called the passing 1512 01:13:01,372 --> 01:13:04,133 Speaker 3: lane for good reason that it's there to pass people 1513 01:13:04,293 --> 01:13:05,692 Speaker 3: rather than go fast. 1514 01:13:07,293 --> 01:13:08,852 Speaker 20: Yeah, it's not there for you just said at one 1515 01:13:08,933 --> 01:13:11,333 Speaker 20: hundred k or eighty k or anything. That's just simply 1516 01:13:11,372 --> 01:13:14,412 Speaker 20: there for you to pass another car. A big example 1517 01:13:14,492 --> 01:13:17,532 Speaker 20: was in the UK when I first drove in the UK. 1518 01:13:18,253 --> 01:13:21,093 Speaker 20: They they were horrified that I was sitting in. 1519 01:13:21,013 --> 01:13:22,572 Speaker 18: An outside lane. 1520 01:13:22,853 --> 01:13:26,173 Speaker 20: And then I went in and I passed the car 1521 01:13:26,293 --> 01:13:29,253 Speaker 20: on the inside lane and oh my god, I think 1522 01:13:29,452 --> 01:13:30,732 Speaker 20: it was like I killed someone. 1523 01:13:31,093 --> 01:13:33,053 Speaker 15: But you're not allowed to pass on the inside lane 1524 01:13:33,173 --> 01:13:33,532 Speaker 15: and the. 1525 01:13:33,492 --> 01:13:38,452 Speaker 20: UK on any motorway, yeah right, so yeah, that was 1526 01:13:38,572 --> 01:13:41,652 Speaker 20: in the UK. You can drive for I don't know, 1527 01:13:41,692 --> 01:13:44,933 Speaker 20: twenty thirty hundred miles and you'll never see anyone in 1528 01:13:44,973 --> 01:13:47,812 Speaker 20: the right hand lane. Yeah, yeah, everyone's in the left 1529 01:13:47,812 --> 01:13:48,652 Speaker 20: doing the speed limit. 1530 01:13:48,933 --> 01:13:51,053 Speaker 2: See, Darren, I'm on your side now, because before I 1531 01:13:51,053 --> 01:13:53,652 Speaker 2: blow up and I tell people not I'm not interested 1532 01:13:53,692 --> 01:13:55,933 Speaker 2: in compelled speech, don't tell me not to call it 1533 01:13:56,333 --> 01:13:59,572 Speaker 2: the farce lane. But I see your point. Everyone did. 1534 01:13:59,612 --> 01:14:01,652 Speaker 2: Just call it the passing lane. I know what the 1535 01:14:01,692 --> 01:14:03,293 Speaker 2: fast lane means, that you go in there when you 1536 01:14:03,333 --> 01:14:05,372 Speaker 2: need to pass someone. But you're quite right if we 1537 01:14:05,452 --> 01:14:07,013 Speaker 2: just call it the passing lane and the people at least 1538 01:14:07,093 --> 01:14:08,812 Speaker 2: know what you're supposed to doing it. 1539 01:14:08,893 --> 01:14:13,092 Speaker 3: Yeah, and as well argued that if it's a far flame, 1540 01:14:13,372 --> 01:14:16,812 Speaker 3: what speed should you be doing that outside. That's a good. 1541 01:14:16,652 --> 01:14:20,293 Speaker 2: Point because because arguably there's only one speed you should 1542 01:14:20,293 --> 01:14:22,852 Speaker 2: be doing really well, one speed you shouldn't be going 1543 01:14:22,853 --> 01:14:23,013 Speaker 2: to have. 1544 01:14:24,612 --> 01:14:26,852 Speaker 20: Another issue I think you have in the city is 1545 01:14:27,133 --> 01:14:28,412 Speaker 20: going down a bit of a dark path. 1546 01:14:28,572 --> 01:14:30,892 Speaker 17: But there's a lot of immigrants. 1547 01:14:30,333 --> 01:14:34,173 Speaker 20: Down in the cities, and I know for a fact 1548 01:14:34,173 --> 01:14:37,372 Speaker 20: that like my wife brought to your license before she 1549 01:14:37,452 --> 01:14:38,213 Speaker 20: got to New Zealand. 1550 01:14:39,133 --> 01:14:41,612 Speaker 3: Really and oh yeah. 1551 01:14:41,532 --> 01:14:44,772 Speaker 20: Yeah, if you've got a like I've got Filipino mates 1552 01:14:44,812 --> 01:14:46,812 Speaker 20: and that, and once they get their license, like they 1553 01:14:46,853 --> 01:14:49,093 Speaker 20: just hand your license in New Zealand and you're getting 1554 01:14:49,093 --> 01:14:49,692 Speaker 20: New Zealand one. 1555 01:14:49,692 --> 01:14:50,412 Speaker 17: You don't have to sit a. 1556 01:14:50,452 --> 01:14:54,612 Speaker 2: Test, right, You're not. Wow, I don't want to. 1557 01:14:54,612 --> 01:14:56,612 Speaker 15: Go down like people thinking I'm rang. 1558 01:14:56,732 --> 01:14:59,772 Speaker 20: I've got a lot of Filipino Figi and friends and stuff, 1559 01:14:59,812 --> 01:15:01,812 Speaker 20: guys that I work with and stuff like that, and 1560 01:15:01,933 --> 01:15:02,692 Speaker 20: same in the UK. 1561 01:15:03,093 --> 01:15:04,852 Speaker 15: I would put my license straight away. 1562 01:15:04,893 --> 01:15:06,333 Speaker 7: I said, here's my New Zealand one. 1563 01:15:06,452 --> 01:15:09,692 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, And I don't anyone saw it that way, Darren. 1564 01:15:09,732 --> 01:15:11,812 Speaker 3: It's it's wherever you're coming from, whether it's your wish, 1565 01:15:11,933 --> 01:15:14,293 Speaker 3: UK whatever, it sounds like that'll be in the same 1566 01:15:14,333 --> 01:15:17,892 Speaker 3: camp right that you You just to get the international license. 1567 01:15:17,933 --> 01:15:19,293 Speaker 3: You don't have to do a physical test. 1568 01:15:19,973 --> 01:15:22,372 Speaker 2: Yeah, someone said, because that's what it's called in the 1569 01:15:22,412 --> 01:15:25,372 Speaker 2: road code, you muppets. Yeah I know, but you get 1570 01:15:25,372 --> 01:15:28,452 Speaker 2: my point that when people tell you how what words 1571 01:15:28,452 --> 01:15:30,852 Speaker 2: to use to describe something, your heckles can get up. 1572 01:15:30,933 --> 01:15:31,133 Speaker 21: Yeah. 1573 01:15:31,173 --> 01:15:32,972 Speaker 3: We were just pushing back on if. 1574 01:15:32,933 --> 01:15:34,532 Speaker 2: You call it fast lane and then four hundred people 1575 01:15:34,532 --> 01:15:36,333 Speaker 2: say it's not a fast lane, it's a passing lane. 1576 01:15:36,372 --> 01:15:40,093 Speaker 2: It's like, you know, my first reaction to that being 1577 01:15:40,093 --> 01:15:43,213 Speaker 2: a contrarian as don't tell me how to speak. But 1578 01:15:43,253 --> 01:15:45,572 Speaker 2: when Darren rings up and logically explains why it should 1579 01:15:45,572 --> 01:15:47,892 Speaker 2: be called the passing lane, then then look, you know 1580 01:15:47,933 --> 01:15:48,333 Speaker 2: your point? 1581 01:15:48,452 --> 01:15:48,692 Speaker 5: Yeah? 1582 01:15:48,893 --> 01:15:53,852 Speaker 3: All right, Hey, so yeah, your muppet take that. Hey, 1583 01:15:54,133 --> 01:15:58,133 Speaker 3: coming up, just after we play some messages, escalator guy 1584 01:15:58,133 --> 01:16:01,452 Speaker 3: has come back to us and explained, Okay, where all 1585 01:16:01,492 --> 01:16:02,852 Speaker 3: these fingers and toes are coming from? 1586 01:16:02,893 --> 01:16:04,333 Speaker 2: Okay, so this is going to be good, all right, 1587 01:16:04,572 --> 01:16:06,732 Speaker 2: because because I contend that there's not a lot of 1588 01:16:06,732 --> 01:16:09,973 Speaker 2: people losing fingers and tones escalators again, Wow, but a 1589 01:16:10,013 --> 01:16:12,893 Speaker 2: person that's pulled some fingers and toes out of escalators 1590 01:16:13,173 --> 01:16:14,053 Speaker 2: is disagreeing with me. 1591 01:16:14,213 --> 01:16:17,932 Speaker 1: It is eight to three the issues that affect you, 1592 01:16:18,213 --> 01:16:19,692 Speaker 1: and a bit of fun along the way. 1593 01:16:19,933 --> 01:16:23,132 Speaker 8: Matt Heath and Tyler Adams Afternoons News Talk. 1594 01:16:22,933 --> 01:16:23,333 Speaker 20: Said, be. 1595 01:16:24,973 --> 01:16:27,492 Speaker 3: It is five to two three a. 1596 01:16:27,492 --> 01:16:29,932 Speaker 2: Tie, lady, I believe, and this is a We've got 1597 01:16:29,973 --> 01:16:32,532 Speaker 2: two subjects going on. My saying that I think that 1598 01:16:32,572 --> 01:16:35,012 Speaker 2: we don't need to be told to be careful on escalators, yes, 1599 01:16:35,053 --> 01:16:37,372 Speaker 2: and a pushback from a lot of people saying that 1600 01:16:37,412 --> 01:16:40,812 Speaker 2: there's fingers and toes being ripped off constantly. This Texas says, 1601 01:16:41,013 --> 01:16:44,692 Speaker 2: I believe ENTI Thailand Airport, a woman had her entire 1602 01:16:44,772 --> 01:16:47,653 Speaker 2: leg sucked in by the escalator and had to be amputated. 1603 01:16:48,013 --> 01:16:51,492 Speaker 2: I believe the articles in the Daily Mail earlier this year. 1604 01:16:52,333 --> 01:16:55,253 Speaker 2: Then I'm paranoid, especially with children. I just don't understand 1605 01:16:55,293 --> 01:16:57,652 Speaker 2: how the it's got the slightly bit that's down. But 1606 01:16:58,093 --> 01:17:00,772 Speaker 2: I think anything those horror stories you steal is when 1607 01:17:00,812 --> 01:17:05,852 Speaker 2: it's a rubbish, cheap and effect of put together escalator 1608 01:17:05,893 --> 01:17:08,213 Speaker 2: that the steer brakes and you fall into the working 1609 01:17:08,652 --> 01:17:09,732 Speaker 2: for example. 1610 01:17:09,372 --> 01:17:11,452 Speaker 3: If there's a gap down the bottom where some of 1611 01:17:11,492 --> 01:17:14,333 Speaker 3: the cheaper escalators might have a gap, but otherwise. 1612 01:17:14,173 --> 01:17:16,852 Speaker 2: Yeah, well sometimes I guess maybe the actual step could 1613 01:17:16,893 --> 01:17:21,173 Speaker 2: fall in. But that Textas says, it's surprisingly common for 1614 01:17:21,253 --> 01:17:23,973 Speaker 2: accidents to happen. It is a maintenance as you if 1615 01:17:24,013 --> 01:17:25,772 Speaker 2: you see a missing tooth on a steer, that is 1616 01:17:26,133 --> 01:17:28,692 Speaker 2: that is the cause more than two missing teeth and 1617 01:17:28,732 --> 01:17:32,092 Speaker 2: you're in trouble. Also, some of the cheaper escalators installed 1618 01:17:32,093 --> 01:17:34,492 Speaker 2: are even more dangerous. People lose fingers when they trip. 1619 01:17:34,612 --> 01:17:37,853 Speaker 2: Also that it takes some time for escalators or travelators 1620 01:17:37,853 --> 01:17:40,892 Speaker 2: to stop as they are heavy beasts. Yeah okay really 1621 01:17:41,053 --> 01:17:45,052 Speaker 2: but Okay, look a couple of things. The Auckland Airport 1622 01:17:45,173 --> 01:17:49,213 Speaker 2: escalator is absolute top of the range escalator. They spend 1623 01:17:49,293 --> 01:17:52,093 Speaker 2: billions on running their airport as smoothly as they do. Yep, 1624 01:17:52,372 --> 01:17:54,093 Speaker 2: I don't think it's one of those ones where you're 1625 01:17:54,093 --> 01:17:55,532 Speaker 2: going to get sucked in and lose your leg. 1626 01:17:55,853 --> 01:17:58,293 Speaker 3: No, it's not a death trap. And I've never seen 1627 01:17:58,333 --> 01:18:00,573 Speaker 3: teeth on an escalator. I've got to say like that 1628 01:18:00,572 --> 01:18:03,692 Speaker 3: that text A said, but thank you very much. 1629 01:18:04,812 --> 01:18:06,053 Speaker 2: Oh sorry, what were you going to say? 1630 01:18:06,133 --> 01:18:08,052 Speaker 3: I was going to say, should we should we carry 1631 01:18:08,053 --> 01:18:11,173 Speaker 3: this one on one hundred eighty ten and eighty news 1632 01:18:11,253 --> 01:18:12,933 Speaker 3: is fast approaching, but we want to hear from you. 1633 01:18:13,053 --> 01:18:16,772 Speaker 3: So the old right lane kiwis apparently don't understand that 1634 01:18:16,853 --> 01:18:18,612 Speaker 3: rule that if you are in the right lane of 1635 01:18:18,652 --> 01:18:21,572 Speaker 3: a multi lane highway that is the passing lane or 1636 01:18:21,692 --> 01:18:23,812 Speaker 3: fast lane, whatever you want to call. It's a keen 1637 01:18:23,893 --> 01:18:25,892 Speaker 3: to get your view on there. But also, is it 1638 01:18:25,973 --> 01:18:29,412 Speaker 3: time we introduce refresher courses when it comes to driving. 1639 01:18:29,173 --> 01:18:31,013 Speaker 2: And what would you want those to be? What you 1640 01:18:31,013 --> 01:18:32,892 Speaker 2: want on those refresher courses? And we'll try and move 1641 01:18:32,893 --> 01:18:34,572 Speaker 2: away from the escalator thing, because I think they became 1642 01:18:34,612 --> 01:18:37,053 Speaker 2: a side issue and confused to still what's interesting though, 1643 01:18:37,133 --> 01:18:39,852 Speaker 2: particularly me new sport and weather coming up, great debut 1644 01:18:39,893 --> 01:18:41,173 Speaker 2: company as always. 1645 01:18:43,053 --> 01:18:46,053 Speaker 8: Your new home are insateful and entertaining. 1646 01:18:46,133 --> 01:18:51,532 Speaker 1: Talk It's Mattie and Taylor Adams afternoons on News Talk sebby. 1647 01:18:51,973 --> 01:18:55,372 Speaker 3: Welcome back into the shelters seven Pass three and having 1648 01:18:55,412 --> 01:18:59,812 Speaker 3: a great discussion about passing lanes. Kiwis apparently don't know 1649 01:18:59,853 --> 01:19:02,093 Speaker 3: how to use them. And if you want to call 1650 01:19:02,133 --> 01:19:04,293 Speaker 3: it the fast lane, you're more than welcome. But we 1651 01:19:04,333 --> 01:19:06,372 Speaker 3: did ever call it before the news that made a 1652 01:19:06,372 --> 01:19:08,652 Speaker 3: fair argument on what they call passing lanes, not the 1653 01:19:08,692 --> 01:19:09,372 Speaker 3: fast lane. 1654 01:19:09,492 --> 01:19:12,293 Speaker 2: Yeah, and we're talking about multiple lane motorways here. We're 1655 01:19:12,293 --> 01:19:13,652 Speaker 2: not talking about that thing. When you're driving line and 1656 01:19:13,692 --> 01:19:16,013 Speaker 2: they say there's a passing lane coming up in two kilometers, Yeah, 1657 01:19:16,572 --> 01:19:19,293 Speaker 2: obviously that's a passing line. Yeah, clearly. But the thing 1658 01:19:19,372 --> 01:19:21,293 Speaker 2: is if you're in that far right lane, in the 1659 01:19:21,452 --> 01:19:25,692 Speaker 2: right hand lane, then you are there to pass and 1660 01:19:25,732 --> 01:19:27,013 Speaker 2: then you get back into the middle lane. Yeah, you 1661 01:19:27,053 --> 01:19:29,412 Speaker 2: don't live in there, easy as life in the fast 1662 01:19:29,492 --> 01:19:32,492 Speaker 2: lane guaranteed to get yourself a ticket. Well you won't actually, 1663 01:19:32,492 --> 01:19:34,652 Speaker 2: but apparently you can get ticketed for that for just 1664 01:19:34,652 --> 01:19:37,053 Speaker 2: sitting in the fast lane as you should in the 1665 01:19:37,093 --> 01:19:41,692 Speaker 2: passing lane. And apologies to everyone for completely derailing last 1666 01:19:41,973 --> 01:19:44,172 Speaker 2: hours chat. That's why I've had to continue this conversation 1667 01:19:44,213 --> 01:19:47,652 Speaker 2: onto this hour because I got too focused on escalators. 1668 01:19:47,973 --> 01:19:50,372 Speaker 3: But there was a texture that said, guys, you need 1669 01:19:50,412 --> 01:19:52,892 Speaker 3: devosition on escalators. As I have been listening to you 1670 01:19:52,973 --> 01:19:55,372 Speaker 3: this afternoon, it's been a great topic, but I'd love 1671 01:19:55,412 --> 01:19:56,892 Speaker 3: to hear more about escalators so well. 1672 01:19:56,893 --> 01:19:59,372 Speaker 2: This person said, guys, it's the shoelaces of kids that 1673 01:19:59,412 --> 01:20:01,692 Speaker 2: can get caught in the side gaps of escalators. I'm 1674 01:20:01,692 --> 01:20:04,253 Speaker 2: always at my son to keep clear. I have PTSD 1675 01:20:04,372 --> 01:20:05,972 Speaker 2: from when I was a kid and took the family 1676 01:20:06,013 --> 01:20:08,892 Speaker 2: cat for a walk with fishing line the lead. The 1677 01:20:08,933 --> 01:20:11,293 Speaker 2: cat took off with the fishing line dragging behind, and 1678 01:20:11,333 --> 01:20:13,412 Speaker 2: then it got caught and all I remember is a 1679 01:20:13,492 --> 01:20:18,293 Speaker 2: choking core of food. That had to stick my hand 1680 01:20:18,372 --> 01:20:20,412 Speaker 2: in with a pair of scissors to cut the line 1681 01:20:20,692 --> 01:20:23,572 Speaker 2: that had tightened around its throat. My hand got mangled 1682 01:20:23,572 --> 01:20:25,652 Speaker 2: from the cat, but I managed to cut the line free. 1683 01:20:25,893 --> 01:20:28,813 Speaker 2: Hence the difficulty with escalators in small moving gap Steve. 1684 01:20:28,853 --> 01:20:30,732 Speaker 3: Fair enough, Steve, I mean, if you went through that 1685 01:20:30,732 --> 01:20:36,133 Speaker 3: sort of trauma. You know, no judgment there, No judgment. 1686 01:20:35,812 --> 01:20:37,452 Speaker 2: There, Darli, you shouldn't laugh at Oh. 1687 01:20:37,333 --> 01:20:39,732 Speaker 3: Yeah, he was walking his cat with the fishing line. 1688 01:20:39,893 --> 01:20:42,213 Speaker 3: Well yeah, come on, just give him a break here, mate. 1689 01:20:42,253 --> 01:20:44,532 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, all right, Well let's put the escalators to bed, 1690 01:20:44,572 --> 01:20:45,133 Speaker 2: all right for now? 1691 01:20:45,213 --> 01:20:46,812 Speaker 3: Yeah, we might do that another day. But O eight 1692 01:20:46,812 --> 01:20:50,173 Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number to call. Allen, 1693 01:20:50,253 --> 01:20:51,812 Speaker 3: you want to talk about refresher courses. 1694 01:20:52,772 --> 01:20:56,652 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know whether you're aware, but I've driven 1695 01:20:56,692 --> 01:20:58,773 Speaker 4: quite a lot in the UK and also in Australia. 1696 01:20:58,812 --> 01:21:01,333 Speaker 4: But in the UK, if you get a speeding ticket, 1697 01:21:01,412 --> 01:21:06,412 Speaker 4: you get the option of demerit points or attending a refresher. 1698 01:21:05,973 --> 01:21:07,492 Speaker 2: Course, right right. 1699 01:21:07,612 --> 01:21:08,652 Speaker 3: Seems like a good idea. 1700 01:21:09,492 --> 01:21:11,732 Speaker 4: Yeah, and you have to book it online and they're 1701 01:21:11,772 --> 01:21:13,532 Speaker 4: all around the place. I mean someone like the AA 1702 01:21:13,612 --> 01:21:15,692 Speaker 4: could easily run it. But I mean it gives you 1703 01:21:15,692 --> 01:21:17,452 Speaker 4: the option. I mean some people to say our buggert 1704 01:21:17,452 --> 01:21:18,053 Speaker 4: obvers take these. 1705 01:21:18,372 --> 01:21:20,532 Speaker 2: You know that seems that gets sort of the idea 1706 01:21:20,532 --> 01:21:25,093 Speaker 2: that it's just revenue generation, doesn't it, because you because 1707 01:21:25,133 --> 01:21:28,412 Speaker 2: you're saying, well, you know, really, we're we're finding people 1708 01:21:28,492 --> 01:21:30,652 Speaker 2: to make the better drivers so the roads are safer, 1709 01:21:30,893 --> 01:21:33,172 Speaker 2: so if you have the opportunity to get educated. Although, 1710 01:21:33,253 --> 01:21:34,933 Speaker 2: as I said on my show, when I got a 1711 01:21:35,093 --> 01:21:37,333 Speaker 2: one hundred and seventy dollars ticket for driving fifty one 1712 01:21:37,412 --> 01:21:39,812 Speaker 2: kilometers an hour over Hopetown Bridge because they've lowered the 1713 01:21:39,812 --> 01:21:42,253 Speaker 2: speed limit of thirty, no refresher course is going to 1714 01:21:42,253 --> 01:21:45,333 Speaker 2: make me think that's the right law. So you know, 1715 01:21:45,333 --> 01:21:47,053 Speaker 2: it wouldn't work for me on that particular law. 1716 01:21:47,173 --> 01:21:49,133 Speaker 3: We'll take the demerits over refresher on that one. 1717 01:21:49,173 --> 01:21:52,133 Speaker 2: But Ellen, if you've been hogging the you know, the 1718 01:21:52,173 --> 01:21:54,412 Speaker 2: passing lane and not moving in, then that would be 1719 01:21:54,452 --> 01:21:56,052 Speaker 2: you know, the refresher course makes a lot of sense. 1720 01:21:57,093 --> 01:21:59,612 Speaker 4: Well, that's right. And of course in Australia, you know 1721 01:21:59,772 --> 01:22:05,012 Speaker 4: the parking ticket, well, the tickets are much more expensive. 1722 01:22:05,053 --> 01:22:07,132 Speaker 4: I think I had one for three hundred and fifty 1723 01:22:07,133 --> 01:22:08,852 Speaker 4: eight dollars for kem. 1724 01:22:08,772 --> 01:22:10,012 Speaker 17: K over the speed limit. 1725 01:22:10,692 --> 01:22:13,333 Speaker 4: You know, so you shouldn't moan here. And of course 1726 01:22:13,372 --> 01:22:17,932 Speaker 4: the Australians, from my observation, don't understand flashing lights. They 1727 01:22:18,013 --> 01:22:20,133 Speaker 4: take it as aggression, so you'd probably get your lights 1728 01:22:20,133 --> 01:22:20,652 Speaker 4: punched out. 1729 01:22:21,013 --> 01:22:23,932 Speaker 2: Yeah, you've got to be I always think about that. 1730 01:22:23,973 --> 01:22:25,652 Speaker 2: But people have got to be very careful when they 1731 01:22:25,732 --> 01:22:28,812 Speaker 2: try and be road vigilantes or or police the roads, 1732 01:22:28,853 --> 01:22:31,732 Speaker 2: because you never know what that person is in front 1733 01:22:31,732 --> 01:22:32,013 Speaker 2: of you. 1734 01:22:32,093 --> 01:22:32,333 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1735 01:22:32,333 --> 01:22:34,013 Speaker 2: I mean they might have been for five days on 1736 01:22:34,133 --> 01:22:36,612 Speaker 2: myth and that's why they're driving so badly. Next thing, 1737 01:22:36,612 --> 01:22:38,692 Speaker 2: you know, you flash your lights and they're coming at 1738 01:22:38,692 --> 01:22:40,812 Speaker 2: you with a tyre on or chasing you here. 1739 01:22:41,732 --> 01:22:42,133 Speaker 5: That's right. 1740 01:22:42,173 --> 01:22:45,133 Speaker 4: I have some sympathy for the escalator one, but I'll 1741 01:22:45,213 --> 01:22:47,812 Speaker 4: give you a different one for infant what do they 1742 01:22:47,893 --> 01:22:48,133 Speaker 4: call it? 1743 01:22:48,253 --> 01:22:48,612 Speaker 12: Done and. 1744 01:22:50,572 --> 01:22:53,932 Speaker 4: Fantalizing? You do you go to the supermarket and you've 1745 01:22:54,253 --> 01:22:58,092 Speaker 4: just paid for your stuff, and you constantly get don't 1746 01:22:58,133 --> 01:23:00,892 Speaker 4: forget your stuff, don't forget your stuff? 1747 01:23:01,013 --> 01:23:01,732 Speaker 2: Oh my god. 1748 01:23:02,013 --> 01:23:05,652 Speaker 4: Yeah, while you're still packing your bags and they're saying, 1749 01:23:05,732 --> 01:23:07,012 Speaker 4: don't forget your goods? 1750 01:23:07,133 --> 01:23:11,013 Speaker 3: You know, account operator? Yeah that is that does my 1751 01:23:11,093 --> 01:23:11,412 Speaker 3: head it? 1752 01:23:12,572 --> 01:23:15,732 Speaker 2: All right, have a good day, go thanks you call alam.

Yeah, I know I said that I 1755 01:23:22,853 --> 01:23:26,213 Speaker 2: wouldn't keep it down the escalator route. But those moments 1756 01:23:26,213 --> 01:23:31,173 Speaker 2: in society where you're being told for something constantly, the safetyization, 1757 01:23:31,293 --> 01:23:34,932 Speaker 2: the infantilization where you have been treated like a child constantly, 1758 01:23:34,973 --> 01:23:37,372 Speaker 2: because I think that makes humans less competent and leads 1759 01:23:37,412 --> 01:23:42,253 Speaker 2: to more more problems and people having worse outcomes because 1760 01:23:42,253 --> 01:23:43,652 Speaker 2: they become completely useless. 1761 01:23:43,772 --> 01:23:46,852 Speaker 3: I've got one for you, Yeah, coffee, takeaway coffee when 1762 01:23:46,853 --> 01:23:50,093 Speaker 3: it sees caution hot on the lid.

Bearey surely 1767 01:24:00,093 --> 01:24:04,452 Speaker 3: here on news talks areb afternoon. It is fourteen pass three. 1768 01:24:04,612 --> 01:24:08,213 Speaker 3: Do we need refresher driving courses in New Zealand? And 1769 01:24:08,372 --> 01:24:11,132 Speaker 3: if we do, what do we need to refresh ourselves 1770 01:24:11,173 --> 01:24:11,372 Speaker 3: up on? 1771 01:24:11,732 --> 01:24:14,053 Speaker 2: Yeah?

Hard to do that. I'm 1774 01:24:20,213 --> 01:24:22,932 Speaker 2: just pulling up beside them from the middle lane and tasering. 1775 01:24:23,013 --> 01:24:24,732 Speaker 2: The window might be down. I mean, I think there's 1776 01:24:24,772 --> 01:24:26,333 Speaker 2: a lot of fish walks in that idea. I get 1777 01:24:26,333 --> 01:24:27,493 Speaker 2: the sentiment, Jamie. 1778 01:24:27,333 --> 01:24:29,572 Speaker 3: Yeah, Hey, don't pull back on the right now.

I 1792 01:24:56,213 --> 01:24:59,613 Speaker 21: think my husband came out to New Zealand from Scotland 1793 01:25:00,133 --> 01:25:08,692 Speaker 21: and brought the very first international driver's license diploma issued 1794 01:25:08,732 --> 01:25:11,053 Speaker 21: in Scofflin to New Zealand. He was the only one 1795 01:25:11,093 --> 01:25:13,772 Speaker 21: that had it.

They're the parents of 1965 01:33:34,933 --> 01:33:39,892 Speaker 19: today's kids, they're the they're the ones that need to 1966 01:33:39,933 --> 01:33:42,612 Speaker 19: be tested. And a number of years ago when I 1967 01:33:42,732 --> 01:33:46,293 Speaker 19: was when I was still a COGOD instructor, I went 1968 01:33:46,372 --> 01:33:54,173 Speaker 19: to Parliament and saw uh yeah, politicians were along with 1969 01:33:54,173 --> 01:33:59,812 Speaker 19: the colleague and we tried to get testing renew renewing 1970 01:33:59,893 --> 01:34:06,412 Speaker 19: licenses on a simple basis that you they they will 1971 01:34:06,452 --> 01:34:09,612 Speaker 19: pay for everything, the fact that you you charge him 1972 01:34:09,692 --> 01:34:17,173 Speaker 19: for this every three five years in order to keep 1973 01:34:17,253 --> 01:34:20,293 Speaker 19: them up to date with what's happening out on the roads. 1974 01:34:21,093 --> 01:34:25,173 Speaker 19: Things have changed. We've gone from the days when the 1975 01:34:25,293 --> 01:34:32,293 Speaker 19: cars we're old English trailways who could barely really get 1976 01:34:32,372 --> 01:34:36,213 Speaker 19: up to a good fifty miles per hour, not p 1977 01:34:37,692 --> 01:34:44,093 Speaker 19: for per hour. Yeah, but more more than that, the 1978 01:34:44,652 --> 01:34:46,853 Speaker 19: drivers were given proper instruction. 1979 01:34:47,652 --> 01:34:50,253 Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you for your call, Rod, appreciate Rob. Yeah, 1980 01:34:50,412 --> 01:34:52,293 Speaker 2: cars are definitely a lot faster than they used to be. 1981 01:34:52,652 --> 01:34:53,612 Speaker 3: Absolutely. Yeah. 1982 01:34:53,692 --> 01:34:56,093 Speaker 2: Hey, so I was talking before about driver's licenses. You 1983 01:34:56,133 --> 01:34:58,333 Speaker 2: can drive on an overseas car license for up to 1984 01:34:58,372 --> 01:35:01,652 Speaker 2: eighteen months right when when you first get here? Okay, Yeah, 1985 01:35:01,853 --> 01:35:06,253 Speaker 2: if you're licenses from an exempt country such as Australia, Austria, Belgium, 1986 01:35:06,652 --> 01:35:12,812 Speaker 2: Canadat Canadia, Canadia, Denmark, France, Germany, Hong Kong Island, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Norway, 1987 01:35:12,933 --> 01:35:16,412 Speaker 2: South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UK or USA, and there 1988 01:35:16,412 --> 01:35:18,572 Speaker 2: are some others you can convert without taking any test, 1989 01:35:18,812 --> 01:35:21,412 Speaker 2: right like this, if you're not from in Hong Kong, 1990 01:35:21,452 --> 01:35:23,972 Speaker 2: did i say, that's another one. If you're not from 1991 01:35:23,973 --> 01:35:28,452 Speaker 2: those places, then for licenses from non exempt countries, you 1992 01:35:28,492 --> 01:35:30,452 Speaker 2: must pass the theory test based on the New Zealand 1993 01:35:30,492 --> 01:35:32,933 Speaker 2: Road Code and then an in car practical test. So 1994 01:35:32,973 --> 01:35:35,372 Speaker 2: if you're not from an exempt country, then you have 1995 01:35:35,452 --> 01:35:38,572 Speaker 2: to go through all the hoops to get a proper 1996 01:35:38,612 --> 01:35:40,852 Speaker 2: license in New Zealand, which makes New Zealand license right. 1997 01:35:40,933 --> 01:35:44,252 Speaker 3: Yeah, which makes sense because I imagine those exempt countries 1998 01:35:44,293 --> 01:35:48,892 Speaker 3: their driver's license tests are pretty similar to ours. 1999 01:35:49,173 --> 01:35:51,692 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I guess they've decided that that there are 2000 01:35:51,732 --> 01:35:54,253 Speaker 2: a similar level. Yeah, so so if you're good enough 2001 01:35:54,253 --> 01:35:57,093 Speaker 2: to pass the test in Australia, you're probably good enough 2002 01:35:57,093 --> 01:35:57,772 Speaker 2: to pass the test here. 2003 01:35:57,853 --> 01:36:00,333 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, fair enough. Right, good discussion, Thank you 2004 01:36:00,532 --> 01:36:04,412 Speaker 3: very much.

Isn't that a one off for you? 2130 01:41:56,893 --> 01:41:57,133 Speaker 16: Though? 2131 01:41:57,293 --> 01:41:58,213 Speaker 3: Do you do that every day? 2132 01:41:58,213 --> 01:41:58,293 Speaker 19: No? 2133 01:41:58,372 --> 01:42:00,093 Speaker 2: I do it every second day. But I'm not walking 2134 01:42:00,133 --> 01:42:03,133 Speaker 2: the length of the country. That's not my full time occupation. 2135 01:42:03,652 --> 01:42:06,652 Speaker 2: So you what's the average I'm not going to nikel 2136 01:42:06,652 --> 01:42:07,372 Speaker 2: and die in these people. 2137 01:42:07,372 --> 01:42:09,612 Speaker 3: This does average over to eighteen days. So they're pretty 2138 01:42:09,612 --> 01:42:10,333 Speaker 3: good as all know, and. 2139 01:42:10,333 --> 01:42:12,213 Speaker 2: Like good on the six year old, it's awesome. But 2140 01:42:12,933 --> 01:42:14,492 Speaker 2: twenty k is a day, No, I get it. There's 2141 01:42:14,532 --> 01:42:16,933 Speaker 2: plenty of time for home schooling and such. So what 2142 01:42:17,253 --> 01:42:19,852 Speaker 2: speed do you walk out? I think the average let's 2143 01:42:19,893 --> 01:42:22,012 Speaker 2: just say average walking pace is about seven k's. 2144 01:42:22,333 --> 01:42:23,452 Speaker 3: Yeah, givil take so they. 2145 01:42:23,412 --> 01:42:26,412 Speaker 2: Were only walking three or four hours a day. That's 2146 01:42:26,532 --> 01:42:27,253 Speaker 2: very manageable. 2147 01:42:27,412 --> 01:42:29,652 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, it depends on how many meters they're covering 2148 01:42:29,692 --> 01:42:33,532 Speaker 3: as well elevation wise. But the longest walk day was 2149 01:42:33,612 --> 01:42:36,253 Speaker 3: thirty two k. How's that? Thirty two k the longest 2150 01:42:36,372 --> 01:42:38,013 Speaker 3: It's all right, you're not sold on that. 2151 01:42:38,452 --> 01:42:39,812 Speaker 2: Tell you what. It's awesome for a six year old. 2152 01:42:39,893 --> 01:42:41,293 Speaker 3: It is very good for a six year old. 2153 01:42:41,492 --> 01:42:43,452 Speaker 2: This Texas says. We have four kids and travel with 2154 01:42:43,492 --> 01:42:46,372 Speaker 2: them all and also just my wife and I also 2155 01:42:46,412 --> 01:42:48,253 Speaker 2: travel without them two thousand and seventy and we spent 2156 01:42:48,293 --> 01:42:51,253 Speaker 2: three weeks in La San Diego and Las Vegas. Twenty nineteen, 2157 01:42:51,253 --> 01:42:53,772 Speaker 2: my wife and I went to La and Vegas by ourselves. 2158 01:42:54,093 --> 01:42:56,933 Speaker 2: Oh these guys like Las Vegas, don't they? How it 2159 01:42:56,973 --> 01:42:59,532 Speaker 2: had to cancel twenty twenty due to COVID Last August, 2160 01:42:59,532 --> 01:43:01,812 Speaker 2: we took our four kids and her parents away for 2161 01:43:01,853 --> 01:43:04,612 Speaker 2: four weeks San Diego, La, Las Vegas, and back to 2162 01:43:04,732 --> 01:43:07,932 Speaker 2: LA again. These people are punishing Las Vegas. My wife 2163 01:43:07,973 --> 01:43:10,573 Speaker 2: I going back to LA for seven weeks for our anivestory. 2164 01:43:10,612 --> 01:43:12,412 Speaker 3: Look at that, and fair enough to Las Vegas is 2165 01:43:12,452 --> 01:43:14,293 Speaker 3: a great place, particularly if you don't have the kids. 2166 01:43:14,293 --> 01:43:17,053 Speaker 3: So I'm sure you're an agreement, Heath, what's that Las 2167 01:43:17,173 --> 01:43:18,612 Speaker 3: Vegas is a great place without the kids. 2168 01:43:18,853 --> 01:43:20,692 Speaker 2: It's a great place without the kids. But actually people 2169 01:43:20,692 --> 01:43:23,253 Speaker 2: don't realize about Las Vegas. There's lots with the kids 2170 01:43:23,253 --> 01:43:25,692 Speaker 2: as well. Yeah, it's changed a lot over the year 2171 01:43:25,692 --> 01:43:28,053 Speaker 2: from just sin city. There's some fantastic stuff you can 2172 01:43:28,093 --> 01:43:30,492 Speaker 2: do around there, and in fact it's great, it's great. 2173 01:43:30,692 --> 01:43:32,692 Speaker 2: It's sort of Disneyland side to it as well. 2174 01:43:33,013 --> 01:43:36,093 Speaker 3: Here's my question that those and I know I've got 2175 01:43:36,133 --> 01:43:38,172 Speaker 3: a lot of friends that do this. So they travel 2176 01:43:38,333 --> 01:43:42,732 Speaker 3: with infants I'm talking under three years old, So they 2177 01:43:42,772 --> 01:43:48,813 Speaker 3: travel to quite far flung places with their under three children. Honestly, 2178 01:43:49,652 --> 01:43:52,452 Speaker 3: what is the point in that? Because those children are 2179 01:43:52,492 --> 01:43:54,772 Speaker 3: not going to remember a lot of those places that 2180 01:43:54,812 --> 01:43:57,093 Speaker 3: you go and see at cost a fortune, You've got 2181 01:43:57,133 --> 01:44:01,372 Speaker 3: to deal with infants on planes, genuinely, what is the 2182 01:44:01,572 --> 01:44:05,013 Speaker 3: what is the positives of traveling with children that long 2183 01:44:05,053 --> 01:44:07,652 Speaker 3: if you are young, if you're going on an international trip. 2184 01:44:09,133 --> 01:44:12,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean that's really frustrating. Well, my son 2185 01:44:12,572 --> 01:44:14,293 Speaker 2: when he was one and a half eighteen months, he 2186 01:44:14,333 --> 01:44:16,452 Speaker 2: traveled the entirety of the United States and a tour 2187 01:44:16,532 --> 01:44:19,173 Speaker 2: van with his mum, who was a Who's a band 2188 01:44:19,213 --> 01:44:22,132 Speaker 2: was touring the states, So he was he was eighteen 2189 01:44:22,133 --> 01:44:23,852 Speaker 2: months old. No, he was younger than that. No, he 2190 01:44:24,013 --> 01:44:27,973 Speaker 2: was less than a year old. That's right. And he 2191 01:44:28,133 --> 01:44:30,612 Speaker 2: was on the road for ages and the bass of 2192 01:44:30,652 --> 01:44:32,652 Speaker 2: the guitarist of the band said he cried less than 2193 01:44:32,973 --> 01:44:35,852 Speaker 2: the guitarist of the band did. But he can't. He 2194 01:44:35,853 --> 01:44:37,452 Speaker 2: can't remember it, and a kind of anoys him to 2195 01:44:37,492 --> 01:44:39,253 Speaker 2: the day. He's like, oh, I've been to the Grand 2196 01:44:39,253 --> 01:44:41,892 Speaker 2: canonon but I've never seen it. Matt, he threw a deck. 2197 01:44:41,933 --> 01:44:45,253 Speaker 2: Imagine a six year olds walking twenty k's every day, 2198 01:44:45,732 --> 01:44:47,772 Speaker 2: says this text, And Matt, you're an idiot. They weren't 2199 01:44:47,772 --> 01:44:49,452 Speaker 2: doing the twenty k's on the flat, even if you're 2200 01:44:49,452 --> 01:44:51,612 Speaker 2: going uphill. I'm saying, I'm not I'm not I'm not 2201 01:44:51,692 --> 01:44:54,892 Speaker 2: hassling them. I'm just saying that twenty k's in this 2202 01:44:54,973 --> 01:44:57,133 Speaker 2: family that walked the length of the country. I'm saying, 2203 01:44:57,133 --> 01:45:00,173 Speaker 2: twenty k's is manageable and good on these parents. It's 2204 01:45:00,213 --> 01:45:05,452 Speaker 2: a fantastic invention, an invention and adventure. Sorry, but when 2205 01:45:05,532 --> 01:45:07,372 Speaker 2: you first hear it, you go, how's that even possible? 2206 01:45:07,372 --> 01:45:09,253 Speaker 2: The six year old? But then that they're averaging twenty 2207 01:45:09,333 --> 01:45:11,053 Speaker 2: k's a day. It seems quite possible. I mean a 2208 01:45:11,093 --> 01:45:12,892 Speaker 2: six six year old can do twenty k's and today 2209 01:45:12,933 --> 01:45:13,333 Speaker 2: they love it. 2210 01:45:13,492 --> 01:45:15,772 Speaker 3: Yeah, I adde hundred eighty t and eighty. If you've 2211 01:45:15,772 --> 01:45:20,372 Speaker 3: done the TA Trail, let Matt know how easy or 2212 01:45:20,412 --> 01:45:22,372 Speaker 3: difficult it is to do twenty k's a day. There'll 2213 01:45:22,333 --> 01:45:24,653 Speaker 3: be a lot of people that have done the TA 2214 01:45:24,732 --> 01:45:28,093 Speaker 3: Travel Trail. I should say I wede hundred eighty t 2215 01:45:28,173 --> 01:45:30,692 Speaker 3: and eighty. How many k's did you average a day? 2216 01:45:30,973 --> 01:45:34,412 Speaker 3: I mean you'll extrapolate that out to two hundred and 2217 01:45:34,412 --> 01:45:38,292 Speaker 3: eighteen days. Twenty k a day? That is, that's some footwork. 2218 01:45:38,973 --> 01:45:41,812 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's doable. Though this text Do you agree with 2219 01:45:41,853 --> 01:45:46,012 Speaker 2: this textas says, wow, selfish parents? Why is that selfish 2220 01:45:46,013 --> 01:45:48,293 Speaker 2: to take your kids away for that long? I don't know. 2221 01:45:49,692 --> 01:45:51,532 Speaker 2: Tom Phillips is on an epic junny, it's not. We're 2222 01:45:51,532 --> 01:45:53,652 Speaker 2: not talking about a Tom Phillips the type situation here. 2223 01:45:53,652 --> 01:45:54,772 Speaker 2: It's very very different. 2224 01:45:56,013 --> 01:45:58,652 Speaker 3: This one says, guys, they may be kids who don't 2225 01:45:58,652 --> 01:46:02,293 Speaker 3: eat vast quantities of sugar and play sports, and maybe 2226 01:46:02,812 --> 01:46:05,093 Speaker 3: if they also respect each other and it would be 2227 01:46:05,213 --> 01:46:07,572 Speaker 3: no problem to walk for six months from g. 2228 01:46:07,772 --> 01:46:10,532 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I think you could eat vast amounts of 2229 01:46:10,572 --> 01:46:12,692 Speaker 2: sugar if you're walking twenty k's a day. I don't 2230 01:46:12,732 --> 01:46:15,333 Speaker 2: think you'd have to worry about your kids sugar and take. 2231 01:46:15,333 --> 01:46:16,972 Speaker 2: In fact, you might want to give them some barley 2232 01:46:16,973 --> 01:46:18,092 Speaker 2: sugars on that kind of journey. 2233 01:46:18,173 --> 01:46:21,213 Speaker 3: Yeah, And Mike says, guys, we've been to Europe on 2234 01:46:21,333 --> 01:46:25,093 Speaker 3: business when our kids were ten and thirteen and we 2235 01:46:25,173 --> 01:46:28,492 Speaker 3: fit them.

Andrew and Courtney are the parents, 2262 01:47:34,572 --> 01:47:37,572 Speaker 3: and they took their four kids, Oliver, Summer, Sky and 2263 01:47:37,772 --> 01:47:42,972 Speaker 3: Elliott the length of New Zealand, the troa trail. Incredible effort, 2264 01:47:42,973 --> 01:47:45,452 Speaker 3: two hudred and eighteen days. But traveling with kids, that's 2265 01:47:45,492 --> 01:47:47,732 Speaker 3: the question we've asked sometimes, is it just a bit 2266 01:47:47,772 --> 01:47:48,293 Speaker 3: too much head? 2267 01:47:48,492 --> 01:47:48,652 Speaker 5: Yeah. 2268 01:47:48,652 --> 01:47:50,572 Speaker 2: And look these people that are saying I'm dissing this walk. 2269 01:47:50,933 --> 01:47:53,612 Speaker 2: I've been talking up this walk. I think it's absolutely 2270 01:47:53,692 --> 01:47:55,253 Speaker 2: awesome that they did it. What I was saying is 2271 01:47:55,293 --> 01:47:57,412 Speaker 2: that good on those parents for taking their kids because 2272 01:47:57,412 --> 01:48:00,093 Speaker 2: it's such a hassle. But also I was saying that 2273 01:48:00,133 --> 01:48:02,732 Speaker 2: twenty kilometers at our day. You know, when you break 2274 01:48:02,772 --> 01:48:05,093 Speaker 2: it down, it does seem more manageable than to twenty 2275 01:48:05,133 --> 01:48:06,932 Speaker 2: kilometers a day. So I don't know, some people don't 2276 01:48:06,933 --> 01:48:09,732 Speaker 2: listen very closely and fair enough. You can enjoy or 2277 01:48:10,013 --> 01:48:12,133 Speaker 2: not enjoy this radio show any you want, But to 2278 01:48:12,492 --> 01:48:15,932 Speaker 2: say that I was dussing this family, how dare you ben? 2279 01:48:17,053 --> 01:48:19,972 Speaker 2: You reckon? You often walk twenty comanies a day? 2280 01:48:21,053 --> 01:48:23,852 Speaker 23: Yeah, yeah, well you know more than more than say, 2281 01:48:24,133 --> 01:48:27,452 Speaker 23: maybe a couple of times a months easy, but yeah, 2282 01:48:27,532 --> 01:48:30,172 Speaker 23: certain times of the year, just even in the yards, 2283 01:48:30,173 --> 01:48:33,492 Speaker 23: like I'll do ten k's in the morning shifting a 2284 01:48:33,572 --> 01:48:34,092 Speaker 23: deer break. 2285 01:48:34,173 --> 01:48:35,892 Speaker 7: You're looking at ten. 2286 01:48:35,732 --> 01:48:38,333 Speaker 23: Times four hundred meters and that's just one part of 2287 01:48:38,372 --> 01:48:41,133 Speaker 23: the job during the day. So it doesn't take long. 2288 01:48:41,173 --> 01:48:43,173 Speaker 23: I mean, if you follow the female around the shop 2289 01:48:43,213 --> 01:48:45,133 Speaker 23: so I reckon, I reckon, those girls would knock up 2290 01:48:45,253 --> 01:48:46,372 Speaker 23: a few k's pretty quick. 2291 01:48:46,692 --> 01:48:49,333 Speaker 3: Yeah, I wonder how many steps twenty k would be. 2292 01:48:49,412 --> 01:48:51,612 Speaker 3: That would be about fifteen thousand steps we take. 2293 01:48:52,452 --> 01:48:54,173 Speaker 23: Yeah, Well, like I said, I've done well over ten 2294 01:48:54,253 --> 01:48:57,053 Speaker 23: thousand in the morning before, just in the deer it's 2295 01:48:57,093 --> 01:48:59,532 Speaker 23: just going in out of the yards you're pretty much 2296 01:48:59,532 --> 01:49:03,892 Speaker 23: walking the whole time. But yeah, so i'd suggest, like, well, 2297 01:49:03,973 --> 01:49:06,732 Speaker 23: the concept of walking twenty kimeenters even a cimeter when 2298 01:49:06,772 --> 01:49:08,093 Speaker 23: you sort of get out and you think I'm better 2299 01:49:08,093 --> 01:49:09,852 Speaker 23: walked from here to there. It's going to be quite 2300 01:49:09,853 --> 01:49:12,452 Speaker 23: a long time. But once you start, you seem to 2301 01:49:12,492 --> 01:49:13,412 Speaker 23: get there pretty quickly. 2302 01:49:13,692 --> 01:49:14,333 Speaker 3: Yeah. 2303 01:49:14,372 --> 01:49:16,852 Speaker 23: Well, you know, I mean kids in toe that would 2304 01:49:16,893 --> 01:49:18,173 Speaker 23: be four Oh I'm there. 2305 01:49:18,572 --> 01:49:22,173 Speaker 2: Yeah. And also these parents were carrying a bunch of 2306 01:49:22,213 --> 01:49:23,372 Speaker 2: stuff on their backpacks as. 2307 01:49:23,253 --> 01:49:26,692 Speaker 3: Well, exactly, so you've got fifteen k on your back. Yeah, 2308 01:49:26,732 --> 01:49:29,012 Speaker 3: and you're smashing twenty k with four kids. It's pretty 2309 01:49:29,053 --> 01:49:29,812 Speaker 3: good efing. Oh yeah. 2310 01:49:30,133 --> 01:49:33,173 Speaker 23: Oh, and for some strange reason, like five and six 2311 01:49:33,293 --> 01:49:35,572 Speaker 23: year old seem to want to pick up every second rock. 2312 01:49:36,973 --> 01:49:38,012 Speaker 23: Can you imagine it? 2313 01:49:38,572 --> 01:49:40,612 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's that's a very good part of it. 2314 01:49:40,652 --> 01:49:42,572 Speaker 2: And then suddenly they want to carry a massive stick 2315 01:49:42,652 --> 01:49:45,452 Speaker 2: for a while, and it's a massive drama if they 2316 01:49:45,452 --> 01:49:47,372 Speaker 2: can't take this stick back to the acorn. 2317 01:49:47,572 --> 01:49:47,812 Speaker 5: Yeah. 2318 01:49:47,853 --> 01:49:50,492 Speaker 3: But if you see a good stack becomes a part 2319 01:49:50,532 --> 01:49:53,452 Speaker 3: of them. Yeah yeah, but come on, as fellers here, 2320 01:49:53,572 --> 01:49:55,652 Speaker 3: you can recognize a good stick when you see one. 2321 01:49:55,652 --> 01:49:58,213 Speaker 23: Surely, Oh you a good stick? 2322 01:49:58,812 --> 01:50:01,772 Speaker 2: Stick? Think I for your call, Ben, We'll let you 2323 01:50:01,772 --> 01:50:04,253 Speaker 2: get back to you to your job. So ten thousand steps, 2324 01:50:04,253 --> 01:50:05,812 Speaker 2: which was that thing they always say that you should, 2325 01:50:06,333 --> 01:50:07,612 Speaker 2: you know, walk in the day. You know, that's just 2326 01:50:07,652 --> 01:50:09,572 Speaker 2: actually been made up. There's no science behind the ten 2327 01:50:09,612 --> 01:50:12,133 Speaker 2: thousand steps. That was just a particular device that was 2328 01:50:12,133 --> 01:50:14,932 Speaker 2: made in Japan that happened to track ten thousand steps. 2329 01:50:15,093 --> 01:50:18,612 Speaker 2: But ten thousand steps is just under eight k right, 2330 01:50:18,732 --> 01:50:20,812 Speaker 2: so they say just in an average day you should 2331 01:50:20,812 --> 01:50:21,892 Speaker 2: walk ten thousand steps. 2332 01:50:22,173 --> 01:50:24,972 Speaker 3: So we're talking twenty five thousand steps twenty k p day. 2333 01:50:24,973 --> 01:50:28,412 Speaker 3: That's a good nudge, guys. I've watched this family's YouTube 2334 01:50:28,452 --> 01:50:31,972 Speaker 3: videos covering their trip. Those kids learnt more in two 2335 01:50:32,093 --> 01:50:34,772 Speaker 3: hundred and eighteen days walking the country than they ever 2336 01:50:34,933 --> 01:50:37,692 Speaker 3: would have at school. Credits to their parents were being 2337 01:50:37,692 --> 01:50:38,372 Speaker 3: brave enough to do it. 2338 01:50:38,492 --> 01:50:40,333 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. I always think of that when parents want 2339 01:50:40,333 --> 01:50:42,213 Speaker 2: to take their kids away on holiday and that time 2340 01:50:42,253 --> 01:50:44,972 Speaker 2: that you spend with your parents and seeing other things. 2341 01:50:45,013 --> 01:50:47,772 Speaker 2: Just generally even walking up the country fantastic, walking the 2342 01:50:47,812 --> 01:50:50,652 Speaker 2: link of the country, but I mean primary school and 2343 01:50:50,692 --> 01:50:54,412 Speaker 2: intermediately here really learning anything that isn't that is as 2344 01:50:54,452 --> 01:50:56,052 Speaker 2: important as that time with your family. 2345 01:50:56,213 --> 01:50:57,933 Speaker 3: Very good call, Nick. How are you? 2346 01:51:00,492 --> 01:51:02,412 Speaker 2: Oh sorry, Nick? Oh sorry, we had a bit of 2347 01:51:02,412 --> 01:51:06,173 Speaker 2: a problem with their phones there, Nick. Traveling with kids. Yep, 2348 01:51:06,173 --> 01:51:06,932 Speaker 2: we can hear you good. 2349 01:51:07,173 --> 01:51:11,532 Speaker 24: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you just hear me out here. Quite 2350 01:51:11,532 --> 01:51:14,013 Speaker 24: a number of years ago, thirty five years ago, we 2351 01:51:14,053 --> 01:51:18,412 Speaker 24: took our two children. One was one turn six in 2352 01:51:18,492 --> 01:51:21,572 Speaker 24: Eastern Europe and one turned one. The youngest turned one 2353 01:51:21,612 --> 01:51:24,732 Speaker 24: in the Netherlands. We're away for six months. We're away 2354 01:51:24,732 --> 01:51:31,812 Speaker 24: for six months. My oldest daughter has is now the 2355 01:51:31,812 --> 01:51:35,372 Speaker 24: international flight crew. I have since had another two daughters. 2356 01:51:35,933 --> 01:51:39,452 Speaker 24: One has been in London for six years, has cycled 2357 01:51:39,452 --> 01:51:41,732 Speaker 24: from London to Auckland, and now that my youngest one 2358 01:51:41,772 --> 01:51:43,692 Speaker 24: is at present been in London for six years and 2359 01:51:43,732 --> 01:51:47,572 Speaker 24: traveled all over the place over there. All I'm trying 2360 01:51:47,612 --> 01:51:52,452 Speaker 24: to say here is it's, you know, it's such a 2361 01:51:52,532 --> 01:51:55,532 Speaker 24: great thing for children, like doing something like this, like 2362 01:51:55,652 --> 01:51:58,572 Speaker 24: what this family did, it's so valuable, you know what 2363 01:51:58,612 --> 01:52:03,013 Speaker 24: it does for them, for the in the futures. It's actually, yeah, 2364 01:52:03,253 --> 01:52:06,972 Speaker 24: you don't need xboxes and all those sorts of things, 2365 01:52:07,013 --> 01:52:10,372 Speaker 24: you know. It's it's so we don't regret what we 2366 01:52:10,412 --> 01:52:14,092 Speaker 24: did with our children. Of we've taken them all around 2367 01:52:14,093 --> 01:52:18,613 Speaker 24: the world more than once, and it's very, very valuable. 2368 01:52:18,812 --> 01:52:19,013 Speaker 24: You know. 2369 01:52:19,293 --> 01:52:20,852 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, good on your neck. It sounds like you've 2370 01:52:20,853 --> 01:52:23,852 Speaker 2: created some intrepid journeyists. Hey, guys, have you seen some 2371 01:52:23,853 --> 01:52:25,852 Speaker 2: of the terrain on that walk? Incredibly difficult. 2372 01:52:26,053 --> 01:52:28,133 Speaker 3: Look, boy, boy, think you're getting a lot of stick 2373 01:52:28,173 --> 01:52:28,333 Speaker 3: on this. 2374 01:52:29,173 --> 01:52:31,812 Speaker 2: I I'm saying. When I heard the walk, I was like, 2375 01:52:31,893 --> 01:52:34,133 Speaker 2: that sounds wow, that sounds impossible. But then when you 2376 01:52:34,173 --> 01:52:35,812 Speaker 2: hear it's twenty k's a day, when you break it 2377 01:52:35,853 --> 01:52:38,253 Speaker 2: down on average, then you see that it is obviously 2378 01:52:38,293 --> 01:52:41,333 Speaker 2: it's possible because they did it. Yeah, but you can 2379 01:52:41,372 --> 01:52:44,412 Speaker 2: get your head around it. You know, incrementally it won't 2380 01:52:44,412 --> 01:52:47,213 Speaker 2: having to twenty k day. That's just phenomenal, phenomenal, there's 2381 01:52:47,213 --> 01:52:49,732 Speaker 2: no doubt. And carrying the backpacks and the kids wanting 2382 01:52:49,732 --> 01:52:51,772 Speaker 2: to carry different sticks and all those kind of problems, 2383 01:52:51,772 --> 01:52:54,852 Speaker 2: absolutely all respect to them. This Texas says the kids 2384 01:52:54,853 --> 01:52:56,732 Speaker 2: should be carrying the backpacks like little sherpas. 2385 01:52:56,772 --> 01:52:56,932 Speaker 20: Yeah. 2386 01:52:56,933 --> 01:52:57,573 Speaker 2: I agree. 2387 01:52:58,612 --> 01:53:01,892 Speaker 3: Mary.
