I feel like it didn't 38 00:02:01,773 --> 00:02:03,093 Speaker 2: even a weekend. I feel like we were just here 39 00:02:03,093 --> 00:02:04,853 Speaker 2: and there we're back. What happened over the weekend. 40 00:02:04,933 --> 00:02:06,413 Speaker 3: It's that time of the year, though, wasn't it how 41 00:02:06,413 --> 00:02:08,013 Speaker 3: you started your Christmas shopping? 42 00:02:08,333 --> 00:02:11,293 Speaker 2: If it's the twenty fifth of November, which it is, 43 00:02:11,293 --> 00:02:14,613 Speaker 2: that means Christmas by my calculations is roughly a month away. 44 00:02:14,693 --> 00:02:15,933 Speaker 3: Yeah, correct, Yeah, well run. 45 00:02:15,893 --> 00:02:19,453 Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm starting to think about that kind of stuff. Yeah, yeah, 46 00:02:19,493 --> 00:02:22,012 Speaker 2: this is an interesting question. But at what age do 47 00:02:22,053 --> 00:02:24,013 Speaker 2: you just start telling people what you want for your 48 00:02:24,093 --> 00:02:24,773 Speaker 2: Christmas present? 49 00:02:24,893 --> 00:02:26,093 Speaker 3: Oh that's a great topic. 50 00:02:26,252 --> 00:02:28,293 Speaker 2: I think that's better in a relationship, right, do you 51 00:02:28,333 --> 00:02:30,132 Speaker 2: just say you put them out of the misery so 52 00:02:30,133 --> 00:02:31,973 Speaker 2: they don't waste too much time going and looking for 53 00:02:31,972 --> 00:02:33,493 Speaker 2: the prison and you just tell them, Yeah, you tell 54 00:02:33,532 --> 00:02:34,493 Speaker 2: them this is what I want. 55 00:02:34,733 --> 00:02:37,093 Speaker 3: Is there anything wrong with giving cash? This is what 56 00:02:37,133 --> 00:02:39,613 Speaker 3: I want. Here is the amount of money you need 57 00:02:39,653 --> 00:02:40,412 Speaker 3: to buy that thing? 58 00:02:40,613 --> 00:02:42,813 Speaker 2: Yeah, Merry Christmas. Yeah, I mean that doesn't really work 59 00:02:42,813 --> 00:02:45,213 Speaker 2: if you've got sheared bank accounts, doesn't it. No. No, Also, 60 00:02:45,252 --> 00:02:47,213 Speaker 2: buying Christmas presents doesn't really help if you've got shared 61 00:02:47,213 --> 00:02:49,293 Speaker 2: bank accounts because they can see exactly where you've been 62 00:02:49,293 --> 00:02:52,133 Speaker 2: spent your money. But I think that if your partner, 63 00:02:52,173 --> 00:02:53,613 Speaker 2: the best thing, one of the best things your partner 64 00:02:53,653 --> 00:02:56,253 Speaker 2: can do can just list of like send an email 65 00:02:56,293 --> 00:02:58,493 Speaker 2: with five things that they possibly want with links to 66 00:02:58,532 --> 00:03:00,853 Speaker 2: them with increasing value. 67 00:03:00,493 --> 00:03:04,933 Speaker 3: And put number one their favorite, or just just a mix. 68 00:03:05,013 --> 00:03:06,653 Speaker 2: So there's a bit of mystery but you don't get 69 00:03:06,653 --> 00:03:09,733 Speaker 2: something they don't want. Yeah, what's on yours for Christmas? 70 00:03:09,853 --> 00:03:10,133 Speaker 4: Yeah? 71 00:03:10,213 --> 00:03:13,893 Speaker 2: What do you give the man that has everything? I don't. 72 00:03:13,972 --> 00:03:15,653 Speaker 2: I don't actually, yeah, I don't think I don't need 73 00:03:15,693 --> 00:03:17,933 Speaker 2: anything at all. Absolutely no. 74 00:03:18,053 --> 00:03:20,093 Speaker 3: There must be something that you've been high on. You've 75 00:03:20,093 --> 00:03:21,613 Speaker 3: got the inflatable tent that's sorted. 76 00:03:22,013 --> 00:03:24,412 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, nothing. I don't need anything. Yeah, I don't 77 00:03:24,413 --> 00:03:24,893 Speaker 2: want anything. 78 00:03:25,013 --> 00:03:27,012 Speaker 3: Don't give you anything, Just give me a listen, the 79 00:03:27,093 --> 00:03:27,653 Speaker 3: giving is. 80 00:03:27,573 --> 00:03:31,252 Speaker 2: The present as far as I'm concerned. If my kids 81 00:03:31,373 --> 00:03:34,693 Speaker 2: just you know, give me a nice card, that's all 82 00:03:34,733 --> 00:03:36,413 Speaker 2: I care about. And maybe a pair of shoes. Yeah, 83 00:03:36,733 --> 00:03:42,293 Speaker 2: and I don't know, maybe maybe I don't know. A ring, 84 00:03:42,653 --> 00:03:45,573 Speaker 2: a gold ring. Yeah, yeah, no, No, I don't want anything. 85 00:03:45,613 --> 00:03:46,293 Speaker 2: I don't need anything. 86 00:03:46,373 --> 00:03:49,453 Speaker 3: All right, now onto the show today after three o'clock, 87 00:03:49,453 --> 00:03:52,693 Speaker 3: we're gonna have a chat about Scott Razor Robinson. How 88 00:03:52,853 --> 00:03:55,813 Speaker 3: is his tenure gone after one year as All Blacks coach. 89 00:03:55,893 --> 00:03:58,333 Speaker 3: Started off with a lot of fan fear. Then things 90 00:03:58,373 --> 00:04:01,893 Speaker 3: became a bit hairy, and now he maybe steadied the 91 00:04:01,893 --> 00:04:02,573 Speaker 3: ship a little bit. 92 00:04:02,853 --> 00:04:05,813 Speaker 2: Yeah that's right. Well, we all wanted him, didn't we 93 00:04:05,853 --> 00:04:07,973 Speaker 2: And we were and we were very mean to Fozzy. 94 00:04:08,333 --> 00:04:10,093 Speaker 2: I know I was, Yeah, I was very mean to 95 00:04:10,133 --> 00:04:12,053 Speaker 2: Fozzy because we wanted Razor in the first place, and 96 00:04:12,093 --> 00:04:15,173 Speaker 2: we felt like he wasn't given a fair trial, and 97 00:04:15,253 --> 00:04:18,973 Speaker 2: then Fozzy had some hairy results. Now we've got Razor, 98 00:04:19,253 --> 00:04:21,693 Speaker 2: he's had a year in the job, and I guess 99 00:04:21,733 --> 00:04:23,813 Speaker 2: the question is how much is the difference between what 100 00:04:23,893 --> 00:04:25,653 Speaker 2: players you've got and what the coach can do. If 101 00:04:25,653 --> 00:04:27,333 Speaker 2: the coach has got if you've got if you've got 102 00:04:27,373 --> 00:04:30,533 Speaker 2: Richie McCaw, Karen Reid and Dan Carter and your team, 103 00:04:30,533 --> 00:04:32,093 Speaker 2: then you're probably going to go very well. Haven't you 104 00:04:32,213 --> 00:04:33,013 Speaker 2: got any other coaches? 105 00:04:33,213 --> 00:04:33,573 Speaker 3: Yeah? 106 00:04:33,613 --> 00:04:35,293 Speaker 2: But yeah, what do you think after a year? I mean, 107 00:04:35,653 --> 00:04:40,133 Speaker 2: that game against Italy was underwhelming at best, and of 108 00:04:40,213 --> 00:04:42,773 Speaker 2: course we lost to South Africa and Argentina and France 109 00:04:42,853 --> 00:04:45,213 Speaker 2: in the year. But we are building yep. Really, what 110 00:04:45,253 --> 00:04:47,133 Speaker 2: does it matter until we win the World Cup? 111 00:04:47,293 --> 00:04:47,613 Speaker 3: Yeah? 112 00:04:47,733 --> 00:04:49,733 Speaker 2: Really, really, that's what we're doing. We've got to look 113 00:04:49,733 --> 00:04:51,173 Speaker 2: at how we are in three years from now in 114 00:04:51,173 --> 00:04:52,013 Speaker 2: my opinion. 115 00:04:51,733 --> 00:04:53,893 Speaker 3: Yep, looking forward to that chat after three o'clock, After 116 00:04:53,933 --> 00:04:57,413 Speaker 3: two o'clock, What does it take to build a successful relationship? 117 00:04:57,493 --> 00:04:59,373 Speaker 3: A great story in the Herald Today but what makes 118 00:04:59,373 --> 00:05:03,333 Speaker 3: and breaks long term love? Matt, You've got some big 119 00:05:03,413 --> 00:05:05,373 Speaker 3: thoughts on this one on what it takes to build 120 00:05:05,413 --> 00:05:07,133 Speaker 3: a successful relationship. 121 00:05:07,213 --> 00:05:09,573 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is a really ine article here and it 122 00:05:09,693 --> 00:05:13,533 Speaker 2: was a great read. But I think a good relationship 123 00:05:13,573 --> 00:05:15,053 Speaker 2: and I'd love to hear what people's thoughts are people 124 00:05:15,053 --> 00:05:17,133 Speaker 2: that are in great relationships that have lasted a long time. 125 00:05:17,293 --> 00:05:19,893 Speaker 2: One hundred and eighteen eighty nine to nine two is 126 00:05:19,893 --> 00:05:23,373 Speaker 2: the text number. But I think you've got people have 127 00:05:23,413 --> 00:05:28,413 Speaker 2: got to stop comparing their partner with the fantasy of 128 00:05:28,493 --> 00:05:31,173 Speaker 2: the perfect person out here, because that's impossible for anyone 129 00:05:31,173 --> 00:05:33,253 Speaker 2: to compare with. We can imagine someone incredible, and we 130 00:05:33,293 --> 00:05:35,133 Speaker 2: can imagine if we were single, we would get that person, 131 00:05:35,413 --> 00:05:38,493 Speaker 2: but it's just not the case. So you just need 132 00:05:38,533 --> 00:05:41,893 Speaker 2: to find someone you like and that you love and 133 00:05:41,973 --> 00:05:44,893 Speaker 2: they're two different things, and settle and then just just 134 00:05:44,973 --> 00:05:47,373 Speaker 2: invest your time into that person because you can just 135 00:05:47,453 --> 00:05:50,373 Speaker 2: you could spend ten years looking for that person scrolling 136 00:05:50,413 --> 00:05:53,253 Speaker 2: through the apps. But your partner doesn't have to be 137 00:05:53,293 --> 00:05:55,253 Speaker 2: the funniest person you know. They don't have to be 138 00:05:55,293 --> 00:05:57,653 Speaker 2: your best mate, they don't have to be your business partner, 139 00:05:57,693 --> 00:05:59,693 Speaker 2: they don't have to be your chauffeur. There can be 140 00:05:59,733 --> 00:06:01,733 Speaker 2: all these different things that can be different people in 141 00:06:01,733 --> 00:06:03,373 Speaker 2: your life. Your partner just has to be someone that 142 00:06:03,413 --> 00:06:07,133 Speaker 2: you like and love and then settle and then stop 143 00:06:07,573 --> 00:06:10,213 Speaker 2: stop getting angry when they're not the absolute perfect person 144 00:06:10,213 --> 00:06:10,613 Speaker 2: in the world. 145 00:06:10,693 --> 00:06:12,853 Speaker 3: Yeah, what do they say about comparison? It's the thief 146 00:06:12,893 --> 00:06:14,853 Speaker 3: of joy? Is that what you're talking about? The e can't. 147 00:06:15,533 --> 00:06:18,013 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a great book by Allan debouton on this 148 00:06:18,853 --> 00:06:22,093 Speaker 2: and talking about love and how we have these unrealistic 149 00:06:22,133 --> 00:06:23,493 Speaker 2: expectations of the person we're with. 150 00:06:23,573 --> 00:06:25,653 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's going to be a good chet after two o'clopper. 151 00:06:25,773 --> 00:06:27,373 Speaker 3: Right now, let's have a chat about vaping. 152 00:06:27,573 --> 00:06:31,333 Speaker 2: Yeah, already making people angry. Just even the mere mention 153 00:06:31,453 --> 00:06:33,973 Speaker 2: of the word vaping fires people up. A survey has 154 00:06:34,013 --> 00:06:38,613 Speaker 2: found vaping frequency is decreasing. More students have given up 155 00:06:38,853 --> 00:06:41,293 Speaker 2: than taking it up in the last year. And I 156 00:06:41,373 --> 00:06:43,533 Speaker 2: just want to ask the question on eight hundred and 157 00:06:43,573 --> 00:06:47,213 Speaker 2: eighty ten eighty are we freaking out too much about vaping? 158 00:06:47,253 --> 00:06:50,253 Speaker 2: And will this have negative consequences? I'm why am I 159 00:06:50,293 --> 00:06:53,893 Speaker 2: not worried about it? It's nothing. Look, kids are going 160 00:06:53,933 --> 00:06:56,093 Speaker 2: to do some bad stuff, right, and vaping is nothing. 161 00:06:56,173 --> 00:06:57,533 Speaker 2: Like the kind of stuff I got up to when 162 00:06:57,573 --> 00:06:59,013 Speaker 2: I was a kid. I mean, I was smoking at 163 00:06:59,053 --> 00:07:02,093 Speaker 2: a very young age, yeah, and drinking. We're always going 164 00:07:02,173 --> 00:07:04,133 Speaker 2: to worry about our kids, But I'd rather my kids 165 00:07:04,693 --> 00:07:06,733 Speaker 2: didn't vape. Obviously, I'd rather they didn't vape. I'd rather 166 00:07:06,733 --> 00:07:09,253 Speaker 2: they just were absolutely perfect, But rather vape than some 167 00:07:09,293 --> 00:07:10,853 Speaker 2: of the other things they can get out there. I'd 168 00:07:10,933 --> 00:07:13,693 Speaker 2: rather they release their rebellion on vaping than smoking or 169 00:07:14,013 --> 00:07:17,253 Speaker 2: marijuana or something worse. And I think we can run 170 00:07:17,293 --> 00:07:20,933 Speaker 2: the risk of losing credibility when we absolutely freak out 171 00:07:20,973 --> 00:07:28,253 Speaker 2: as a nation on something as potentially well the words 172 00:07:28,253 --> 00:07:32,733 Speaker 2: not innocuous, but compared to other things vaping, And so 173 00:07:32,813 --> 00:07:35,293 Speaker 2: kids start to go, what's wrong with society when they're 174 00:07:35,293 --> 00:07:38,253 Speaker 2: absolutely freaking about this. We don't even know how bad 175 00:07:38,293 --> 00:07:41,653 Speaker 2: it is yet, and we're on there on our kids 176 00:07:41,693 --> 00:07:45,973 Speaker 2: asses about their phones, telling them not to vape. You know, 177 00:07:46,133 --> 00:07:48,733 Speaker 2: I think, just choose your battles. And I say, I 178 00:07:48,773 --> 00:07:51,253 Speaker 2: don't know. I might be wrong, but just vaping is 179 00:07:51,253 --> 00:07:53,333 Speaker 2: not one of the things in society that out of 180 00:07:53,413 --> 00:07:55,653 Speaker 2: all the things to worry about. I just think we 181 00:07:55,813 --> 00:07:57,893 Speaker 2: freak out at it disproportionately. 182 00:07:57,973 --> 00:07:59,853 Speaker 3: Kids are going to be a rebel, and you would 183 00:07:59,893 --> 00:08:03,613 Speaker 3: prefer them to rebel with some vapes rather than say 184 00:08:03,653 --> 00:08:06,373 Speaker 3: alcohol and certainly cigarettes, And I agree with you there. 185 00:08:06,493 --> 00:08:09,493 Speaker 3: I'd far prefer younger people to be in the smoking cigis. 186 00:08:09,573 --> 00:08:11,293 Speaker 2: Yeah, because if you completely get rid of vapes, do 187 00:08:11,333 --> 00:08:12,893 Speaker 2: you think kids are going to get rid of their 188 00:08:12,973 --> 00:08:13,733 Speaker 2: will to rebel? 189 00:08:13,973 --> 00:08:14,133 Speaker 5: No? 190 00:08:14,613 --> 00:08:16,773 Speaker 3: While they starting to use those zin I think is 191 00:08:16,773 --> 00:08:18,773 Speaker 3: the product that's a nicotine product that comes in a 192 00:08:18,773 --> 00:08:20,653 Speaker 3: week pouch. You put that in your lip and you 193 00:08:20,653 --> 00:08:21,813 Speaker 3: get your nicotine hit. 194 00:08:22,013 --> 00:08:24,453 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, I mean, you know, as as we all know, 195 00:08:24,573 --> 00:08:27,733 Speaker 2: nicotine isn't bad in itself. The problem with nicotine was 196 00:08:28,133 --> 00:08:30,293 Speaker 2: how we were taking it. In fact, there's a lot 197 00:08:30,293 --> 00:08:34,293 Speaker 2: of advantages in nicotine, but the problem was that the 198 00:08:34,373 --> 00:08:37,213 Speaker 2: nicotine was coming with cigarettes which were killing people. 199 00:08:37,413 --> 00:08:37,613 Speaker 6: Yeah. 200 00:08:37,813 --> 00:08:40,293 Speaker 2: So I don't know. I just I think people have 201 00:08:40,333 --> 00:08:42,933 Speaker 2: to be realistic about this and that kids are gonna 202 00:08:43,012 --> 00:08:45,853 Speaker 2: do naughty stuff. They have to rebel in some way. 203 00:08:45,892 --> 00:08:49,492 Speaker 2: It's a it's a state as old as time. So 204 00:08:50,173 --> 00:08:52,333 Speaker 2: you just got to think of the unforeseen circumstances. If 205 00:08:52,372 --> 00:08:55,173 Speaker 2: you really crack down on vaping, what are they going 206 00:08:55,213 --> 00:08:56,733 Speaker 2: to do? They're gonna find something else and you're going 207 00:08:56,773 --> 00:08:57,533 Speaker 2: to freak out about that. 208 00:08:57,693 --> 00:09:00,653 Speaker 3: Yeah, my only and this is my own personal experience 209 00:09:00,653 --> 00:09:03,333 Speaker 3: when it comes to being hooked on nicotine, and I 210 00:09:03,372 --> 00:09:05,733 Speaker 3: am and I get a lot of stick about this 211 00:09:05,892 --> 00:09:08,213 Speaker 3: that I'm I don't have the will power to quit 212 00:09:08,533 --> 00:09:10,732 Speaker 3: or I just need to try a bit harder. But 213 00:09:10,773 --> 00:09:14,413 Speaker 3: for whatever reason, for me, I can. It's incredibly hard 214 00:09:14,413 --> 00:09:16,933 Speaker 3: to quit nicotine. I quit the ciggies, I jumped on 215 00:09:16,973 --> 00:09:20,053 Speaker 3: the vaping. I've tried three times. Why do you need 216 00:09:20,093 --> 00:09:22,413 Speaker 3: to quit the nicotine because I don't think it's doing 217 00:09:22,413 --> 00:09:24,893 Speaker 3: good things for me anymore. I generally don't so the 218 00:09:24,933 --> 00:09:28,053 Speaker 3: amount of nicotine that I have through my vape. And look, 219 00:09:28,093 --> 00:09:30,493 Speaker 3: people listening know that we both vape from time to time. 220 00:09:30,573 --> 00:09:33,093 Speaker 3: I vape a lot. That was for me to get 221 00:09:33,132 --> 00:09:35,893 Speaker 3: off the sigis. But the fact that I've got to 222 00:09:35,933 --> 00:09:37,933 Speaker 3: worry when I leave the house and were's my vape? 223 00:09:38,012 --> 00:09:39,892 Speaker 3: Is it fully charged? I've I got my juice? Is 224 00:09:39,892 --> 00:09:41,693 Speaker 3: it in my pocket? If it's not in my pocket, 225 00:09:41,693 --> 00:09:43,813 Speaker 3: I start to worry all of those things. I look 226 00:09:43,852 --> 00:09:46,573 Speaker 3: at that and think that's crap doing that. 227 00:09:46,653 --> 00:09:49,293 Speaker 2: I think you're stressing out over nothing. 228 00:09:49,453 --> 00:09:50,893 Speaker 3: Yeah, but for me, it's to get the monkey off 229 00:09:50,973 --> 00:09:52,773 Speaker 3: my back. That is all it is. And part of 230 00:09:52,773 --> 00:09:55,333 Speaker 3: it is nicotine addiction. Part of it is psychological addiction. 231 00:09:55,653 --> 00:09:58,693 Speaker 3: But I for me, and it's just a personal situation. 232 00:09:58,813 --> 00:10:01,172 Speaker 3: It is a curse. I rew the day I picked 233 00:10:01,252 --> 00:10:02,653 Speaker 3: up a cigarette and go looked on the stuff. 234 00:10:02,653 --> 00:10:05,532 Speaker 2: Well, well that's cool. Good when if you don't want 235 00:10:05,533 --> 00:10:07,053 Speaker 2: to do it, you shouldn't do it. And I thoroughly 236 00:10:07,093 --> 00:10:09,093 Speaker 2: I'll support you one hundred percent, and your attempts to 237 00:10:09,093 --> 00:10:11,132 Speaker 2: stop vaping, I know you will. This is the kind 238 00:10:11,173 --> 00:10:12,932 Speaker 2: of freaking out that I'm talking about here. That's just 239 00:10:12,973 --> 00:10:15,093 Speaker 2: come through on nine two nine two. This comment about 240 00:10:15,173 --> 00:10:18,613 Speaker 2: vaping is the comet of an uneducated and thoroughly irresponsible person. 241 00:10:18,773 --> 00:10:22,813 Speaker 2: You are completely wrong. So that's your response to it, 242 00:10:22,892 --> 00:10:26,132 Speaker 2: to just absolutely freak out that even someone suggests for 243 00:10:26,132 --> 00:10:28,852 Speaker 2: a second that they aren't worried. All I'm saying is 244 00:10:28,892 --> 00:10:31,373 Speaker 2: that I'm not particularly worried about. Out of all the 245 00:10:31,413 --> 00:10:34,613 Speaker 2: problems in the world that children are facing right now 246 00:10:34,653 --> 00:10:36,653 Speaker 2: and young people coming through are facing right now, and 247 00:10:36,732 --> 00:10:39,573 Speaker 2: society is facing right now, I think we have an 248 00:10:39,693 --> 00:10:43,413 Speaker 2: outsized reaction to vaping. And that text just proves my 249 00:10:43,533 --> 00:10:45,293 Speaker 2: point that it's hysteria. 250 00:10:45,773 --> 00:10:48,013 Speaker 3: Oh, eight one hundred eighty t and eighty love to 251 00:10:48,053 --> 00:10:50,373 Speaker 3: hear your thoughts on this one.

Your thoughts please, Yeah. 264 00:11:28,813 --> 00:11:29,253 Speaker 6: Good good. 265 00:11:29,612 --> 00:11:32,052 Speaker 7: I'll start off by saying, I'm a non smoker and 266 00:11:32,093 --> 00:11:35,252 Speaker 7: a non vapor good for you, but. 267 00:11:36,533 --> 00:11:38,493 Speaker 4: I I. 268 00:11:40,892 --> 00:11:44,492 Speaker 7: The possible health effects of vaping. I just don't think 269 00:11:44,533 --> 00:11:49,933 Speaker 7: it's all that beneficial or or can be beneficial for 270 00:11:50,012 --> 00:11:55,973 Speaker 7: you putting that much vapor, which is basically water into 271 00:11:56,012 --> 00:12:00,293 Speaker 7: your lungs all the time. And I think people who 272 00:12:00,413 --> 00:12:05,573 Speaker 7: vape are getting pigs if you like. Now, my son 273 00:12:05,852 --> 00:12:09,892 Speaker 7: whover that old now us spoke when you're a teenager, 274 00:12:10,333 --> 00:12:14,973 Speaker 7: and now he vapes. I suspect that it's better, but 275 00:12:15,372 --> 00:12:18,333 Speaker 7: he's just as addicted to the vapes as he was 276 00:12:18,453 --> 00:12:23,213 Speaker 7: to the smokes. And in the next bread, I have 277 00:12:23,333 --> 00:12:26,133 Speaker 7: to say I hate vaping on the motorway. You know, 278 00:12:26,612 --> 00:12:28,813 Speaker 7: people in the car in front of me, they opened 279 00:12:28,813 --> 00:12:31,732 Speaker 7: the window and they laid out this mess of cloud, 280 00:12:31,732 --> 00:12:35,732 Speaker 7: which I inevitably had to drive through, like I have 281 00:12:35,852 --> 00:12:37,652 Speaker 7: to breathe in thereafter effects. 282 00:12:38,573 --> 00:12:42,132 Speaker 2: But you would, Andrew, I'm sure you would agree that 283 00:12:42,173 --> 00:12:45,413 Speaker 2: you prefer that your son was vaping to smoking cigarettes. 284 00:12:46,653 --> 00:12:48,573 Speaker 2: I don't think there's any I don't think there's inn 285 00:12:48,612 --> 00:12:50,653 Speaker 2: one out there saying, you know, there hasn't been any 286 00:12:50,732 --> 00:12:53,573 Speaker 2: really strong evidence to say that vaping's bad. And of 287 00:12:53,612 --> 00:12:55,973 Speaker 2: course that might come through because it hasn't been around 288 00:12:56,333 --> 00:12:58,892 Speaker 2: long enough for us to have I guess the longitudinal 289 00:12:58,973 --> 00:13:01,852 Speaker 2: studies to find that out. But I think, I mean, 290 00:13:01,852 --> 00:13:05,413 Speaker 2: there's no one suggesting that vaping's anywhere near as bad 291 00:13:05,453 --> 00:13:07,573 Speaker 2: for you as smoking cigarettes. 292 00:13:08,813 --> 00:13:11,733 Speaker 7: Well, that's that's the thing. I think it is because 293 00:13:11,773 --> 00:13:15,293 Speaker 7: it hasn't been around for long enough, we don't know. 294 00:13:16,093 --> 00:13:20,853 Speaker 7: I think people who say vaping is terribly bad for you, 295 00:13:21,492 --> 00:13:25,693 Speaker 7: or baiting is terribly good for you, and anything in between. 296 00:13:26,213 --> 00:13:30,132 Speaker 7: I think they just grasping its struggles because it's new technology. 297 00:13:30,533 --> 00:13:32,493 Speaker 7: Quite frankly, we don't know. 298 00:13:32,852 --> 00:13:34,453 Speaker 2: Yeah, but we don't know a lot about a lot 299 00:13:34,453 --> 00:13:36,693 Speaker 2: of things we can't sort of do you think it's 300 00:13:36,693 --> 00:13:38,973 Speaker 2: healthy too for us to get so worried and spend 301 00:13:38,973 --> 00:13:42,053 Speaker 2: so much time freaking out about stuff before we know, 302 00:13:42,293 --> 00:13:44,732 Speaker 2: because there's so many things out there we don't know about. 303 00:13:45,093 --> 00:13:47,013 Speaker 2: Don't you just shouldn't we wait till we have some 304 00:13:47,132 --> 00:13:50,252 Speaker 2: evidence that something's bad and then really worry about it. 305 00:13:51,333 --> 00:13:54,132 Speaker 7: Well, it's not healthy to get worried and freak out 306 00:13:54,173 --> 00:13:55,612 Speaker 7: about anything, you know that? 307 00:13:55,813 --> 00:13:56,133 Speaker 2: Agreed? 308 00:13:56,372 --> 00:13:59,292 Speaker 7: Yeah, that's that's the biggest killer that we've got in 309 00:13:59,372 --> 00:14:03,093 Speaker 7: this soci idea is you know, it's worse than spoking, 310 00:14:03,213 --> 00:14:06,853 Speaker 7: and it's worse than alcohol, and it's it's worse than 311 00:14:06,933 --> 00:14:09,093 Speaker 7: dope as people freaking out worry. 312 00:14:09,533 --> 00:14:10,093 Speaker 4: Yeah. 313 00:14:10,213 --> 00:14:12,813 Speaker 2: Yeah.

Again, 331 00:14:52,213 --> 00:14:54,453 Speaker 3: that all ended up being bunker.

I'm saying that, sure, there's everything's got 374 00:16:55,773 --> 00:16:57,973 Speaker 2: good and bad to it, and maybe vaping has got 375 00:16:58,013 --> 00:16:59,613 Speaker 2: more good than bad. But I'm just thinking about the 376 00:16:59,733 --> 00:17:05,413 Speaker 2: energy that we use and and focus on the amount 377 00:17:05,453 --> 00:17:08,173 Speaker 2: of freaking out we're doing on kids vaping. I just 378 00:17:08,333 --> 00:17:10,093 Speaker 2: don't get to that level with it. I just think 379 00:17:10,133 --> 00:17:13,053 Speaker 2: that there's so many other things that are a problem 380 00:17:13,133 --> 00:17:16,013 Speaker 2: for children right now compared to vaping.

Sometimes they don't even 427 00:19:03,053 --> 00:19:04,853 Speaker 13: do that. They'll just put their face down the front 428 00:19:04,853 --> 00:19:07,613 Speaker 13: of their shirt and then they will go off to 429 00:19:07,653 --> 00:19:11,413 Speaker 13: the bathroom, come back as white as a ghost, shaking, 430 00:19:11,773 --> 00:19:14,693 Speaker 13: almost passing out because they've obviously had way too much 431 00:19:14,773 --> 00:19:15,853 Speaker 13: nicotine in one go. 432 00:19:16,253 --> 00:19:17,973 Speaker 7: And then you have to deal with that. 433 00:19:18,093 --> 00:19:21,053 Speaker 13: It's disruptive to your class, not to mention, not that 434 00:19:21,173 --> 00:19:22,053 Speaker 13: good for the student. 435 00:19:22,453 --> 00:19:24,613 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, in my defense, it was Tyler that 436 00:19:24,653 --> 00:19:27,773 Speaker 2: added schools to it. He said that my opinion was 437 00:19:27,813 --> 00:19:30,973 Speaker 2: based around schools that wasn't actually, But I mean when 438 00:19:31,013 --> 00:19:33,733 Speaker 2: I was at school, Julia, I was sneaking off to 439 00:19:33,733 --> 00:19:36,053 Speaker 2: smoke cigarettes. I mean, there's always going to be kids 440 00:19:36,093 --> 00:19:39,292 Speaker 2: like me that were looking for reasons to rebel. And 441 00:19:39,373 --> 00:19:41,453 Speaker 2: I guess my thing is in terms of all the 442 00:19:41,453 --> 00:19:43,693 Speaker 2: things that I'm freaking out about, and I'm not saying 443 00:19:44,933 --> 00:19:47,213 Speaker 2: vaping is call and I feel for you with the 444 00:19:47,293 --> 00:19:49,493 Speaker 2: disruption that's causing your class. I'm just saying, out of 445 00:19:49,493 --> 00:19:51,613 Speaker 2: all the things that we spend our energy freaking out 446 00:19:51,613 --> 00:19:54,853 Speaker 2: on in society, I'm not sure if vaping is the 447 00:19:54,853 --> 00:19:56,373 Speaker 2: one I want to spend my time on. 448 00:19:57,533 --> 00:19:59,613 Speaker 13: I feel like though, that you can get a much 449 00:19:59,613 --> 00:20:02,893 Speaker 13: bigger hits of nicotine by vaping than you ever probably 450 00:20:02,893 --> 00:20:05,093 Speaker 13: could have by going and having a little bit of 451 00:20:05,093 --> 00:20:06,173 Speaker 13: a cigarette or something. 452 00:20:06,213 --> 00:20:07,133 Speaker 12: And that's the problem. 453 00:20:07,413 --> 00:20:10,173 Speaker 13: They literally come back class and you can tell straight 454 00:20:10,213 --> 00:20:13,052 Speaker 13: away what they've been up to. They go white as 455 00:20:13,093 --> 00:20:17,293 Speaker 13: a sheet. They're shaking sweeting you there. It can't be 456 00:20:17,373 --> 00:20:18,013 Speaker 13: good for them. 457 00:20:18,253 --> 00:20:20,413 Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, just on that note, Julia, and I know 458 00:20:20,653 --> 00:20:23,613 Speaker 3: the Asthma Foundation is pushing hard for this, and I 459 00:20:23,613 --> 00:20:26,093 Speaker 3: actually agree with it. To limit the amount of nicotine 460 00:20:26,413 --> 00:20:28,773 Speaker 3: in the vapes. At the moment, it's fifty milligrams, which 461 00:20:28,853 --> 00:20:31,052 Speaker 3: is a lot of nicotine. They want to limit it, 462 00:20:31,133 --> 00:20:33,173 Speaker 3: limit it to twenty, which you can still get a 463 00:20:33,253 --> 00:20:35,253 Speaker 3: hit from if you are an adult that is using 464 00:20:35,293 --> 00:20:37,613 Speaker 3: it to get off cigarettes. Is that something you'd be 465 00:20:37,613 --> 00:20:38,173 Speaker 3: in favor of. 466 00:20:40,253 --> 00:20:41,493 Speaker 12: Not really in schools. 467 00:20:41,573 --> 00:20:41,613 Speaker 15: No. 468 00:20:41,893 --> 00:20:44,013 Speaker 13: I mean, I'm not a smoker and I'm not a 469 00:20:44,093 --> 00:20:47,573 Speaker 13: vapor and I've seen too many people in our extended 470 00:20:47,613 --> 00:20:51,013 Speaker 13: family over the years who died of the effects of smoking. 471 00:20:51,893 --> 00:20:54,773 Speaker 13: Maybe if vaping's a bit safer, that would be good, 472 00:20:55,013 --> 00:20:57,773 Speaker 13: But I really don't think school cold should be vaping. 473 00:20:58,933 --> 00:21:00,973 Speaker 2: I mean, as if I was running a school, if 474 00:21:01,013 --> 00:21:03,733 Speaker 2: I was a teacher, also wouldn't allow vaping at school, 475 00:21:03,733 --> 00:21:05,933 Speaker 2: because you just can't be doing that kind of thing 476 00:21:05,933 --> 00:21:07,973 Speaker 2: in the same way as I wouldn't allow kids chewing 477 00:21:07,973 --> 00:21:11,013 Speaker 2: gum and class or you know, you've got to have 478 00:21:11,093 --> 00:21:14,533 Speaker 2: rules totally respect that. I guess my point is that 479 00:21:15,133 --> 00:21:18,893 Speaker 2: I I just think that kids will find something naughty 480 00:21:18,893 --> 00:21:21,493 Speaker 2: to do, and I know that my brain when I 481 00:21:21,613 --> 00:21:24,253 Speaker 2: was a teenager was just so focused on rebelling in 482 00:21:24,253 --> 00:21:27,293 Speaker 2: any way I can, and I think that vaping is 483 00:21:27,373 --> 00:21:29,493 Speaker 2: the current currently the thing they do, and I'm just 484 00:21:29,573 --> 00:21:32,733 Speaker 2: glad that that's what they're rebelling with as opposed to cigarettes. 485 00:21:34,733 --> 00:21:37,653 Speaker 13: Yeah, I feel like that maybe if they did put 486 00:21:37,733 --> 00:21:40,493 Speaker 13: this nicotine in them, that would be a good start. 487 00:21:40,773 --> 00:21:43,213 Speaker 13: But I still can't say I would be in favor 488 00:21:43,253 --> 00:21:45,213 Speaker 13: of it. But as you say, some students are going 489 00:21:45,253 --> 00:21:47,413 Speaker 13: to try, they'll try everything. 490 00:21:46,973 --> 00:21:47,373 Speaker 14: In the book. 491 00:21:47,653 --> 00:21:49,493 Speaker 2: I'm sure you've seen a lot of that over the years. 492 00:21:49,773 --> 00:21:52,213 Speaker 11: That's what teenagers are exactly. 493 00:21:52,533 --> 00:21:55,573 Speaker 2: And good on you for doing what you do to 494 00:21:55,973 --> 00:21:57,973 Speaker 2: bring up our young people.

I listened to your 552 00:24:40,453 --> 00:24:43,893 Speaker 15: station all the time, and when the shaping first came in, 553 00:24:44,493 --> 00:24:46,773 Speaker 15: it was on your station. I heard it and they 554 00:24:46,853 --> 00:24:50,453 Speaker 15: said that over in London they had never ever seen 555 00:24:50,853 --> 00:24:54,253 Speaker 15: anything like it. Children six seven eight year olds. The 556 00:24:54,373 --> 00:24:58,572 Speaker 15: lungs were completely shot and they'd been using vaping, and 557 00:24:58,653 --> 00:25:01,333 Speaker 15: I think that should have been looked into. I haven't 558 00:25:01,333 --> 00:25:04,133 Speaker 15: heard anymore. But I was brought up in the house. 559 00:25:04,813 --> 00:25:08,693 Speaker 15: My dad was a chain smoker. My mum smoked. Dad 560 00:25:08,733 --> 00:25:13,693 Speaker 15: died before he was sixty with prostate cancer, all through smoking. 561 00:25:14,213 --> 00:25:17,013 Speaker 15: And my mum she died in the seema and now 562 00:25:17,013 --> 00:25:19,453 Speaker 15: she's passed it on to me. And I've never smoked 563 00:25:19,453 --> 00:25:20,293 Speaker 15: in my life. 564 00:25:20,493 --> 00:25:22,133 Speaker 2: I'm sorry to hear that. I'm sorry to hear that. 565 00:25:22,213 --> 00:25:25,053 Speaker 15: Jeane, my son, he was in band and I could 566 00:25:25,093 --> 00:25:28,053 Speaker 15: smell him coming before it even got inside the door. 567 00:25:28,293 --> 00:25:29,013 Speaker 17: With the smoke. 568 00:25:29,173 --> 00:25:32,013 Speaker 15: He inhales, So I mean, he doesn't smoke at all, 569 00:25:32,133 --> 00:25:34,133 Speaker 15: so God knows what his lungs are going to be like. 570 00:25:34,573 --> 00:25:36,453 Speaker 15: You know, he used to play in all the bars 571 00:25:36,493 --> 00:25:39,532 Speaker 15: and now smoky they were nobody thought of anything like 572 00:25:39,613 --> 00:25:43,333 Speaker 15: that then as you get older. But I just think 573 00:25:43,453 --> 00:25:45,973 Speaker 15: that's wrong to let kids. And they said that they 574 00:25:45,973 --> 00:25:49,133 Speaker 15: were sneaking them and off their older brother and sister 575 00:25:49,853 --> 00:25:51,532 Speaker 15: and that's how the kids do it. 576 00:25:51,853 --> 00:25:55,053 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I'd be Geene, I'd be Gene. I'd be 577 00:25:55,053 --> 00:25:58,373 Speaker 2: incredibly worried if I saw a six year old vaping. 578 00:25:59,053 --> 00:26:01,613 Speaker 2: I haven't said that that would be shocking, but I 579 00:26:01,613 --> 00:26:04,853 Speaker 2: don't think there's much of that going on. Hopefully we're 580 00:26:04,853 --> 00:26:07,373 Speaker 2: talking more about we're talking more about late teenagers and 581 00:26:08,013 --> 00:26:10,733 Speaker 2: early early twenties and with us the study that we're 582 00:26:10,773 --> 00:26:13,293 Speaker 2: going off now. But yeah, I mean, I think there's 583 00:26:13,293 --> 00:26:15,933 Speaker 2: not a person in the country that wouldn't see a 584 00:26:15,973 --> 00:26:18,533 Speaker 2: six year old vaping and think it was a bad thing. 585 00:26:19,053 --> 00:26:23,653 Speaker 2: But whatever, whatever the case is with cigarettes and vaping, 586 00:26:23,693 --> 00:26:27,213 Speaker 2: I think we're all agreed. And with the amount of 587 00:26:27,213 --> 00:26:28,733 Speaker 2: time they've had to study it, though, I would have 588 00:26:28,773 --> 00:26:31,213 Speaker 2: found out by now that vaping is definitely not as 589 00:26:31,213 --> 00:26:35,173 Speaker 2: bad as smoking cigarettes. There's not even a magnitude of comparison. 590 00:26:35,453 --> 00:26:37,493 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I've just got to say, Gene, thank you 591 00:26:37,653 --> 00:26:38,973 Speaker 3: very much for your call. I've got to say with 592 00:26:39,013 --> 00:26:42,093 Speaker 3: my own vaping going from cigarettes, and I know my 593 00:26:42,213 --> 00:26:45,093 Speaker 3: lung capacity because it's been measured by my doctor, has 594 00:26:45,133 --> 00:26:49,093 Speaker 3: greatly improved, dramatically improved. So on the health side of things, 595 00:26:50,173 --> 00:26:52,453 Speaker 3: the vaping has been really good for me. It's not 596 00:26:53,053 --> 00:26:55,533 Speaker 3: great long term. I wish I wasn't vaping or didn't 597 00:26:55,573 --> 00:26:57,493 Speaker 3: have to vape, And I know people say, well, just don't. 598 00:26:57,613 --> 00:27:00,693 Speaker 3: I've got an addiction. But on the health spectrum side 599 00:27:00,693 --> 00:27:04,053 Speaker 3: of things, when I was smoking cigarettes versus vaping, my 600 00:27:04,133 --> 00:27:05,493 Speaker 3: health is dramatically improved. 601 00:27:05,733 --> 00:27:09,973 Speaker 2: Yeah. And when you because you've taken it into the classroom, Tyler, 602 00:27:10,653 --> 00:27:12,653 Speaker 2: I'd also have to mention that when I was at 603 00:27:12,733 --> 00:27:16,893 Speaker 2: intermediate and high school, we used to sniff pens, that's 604 00:27:16,933 --> 00:27:19,133 Speaker 2: what we used to be into. And my mates used 605 00:27:19,173 --> 00:27:22,853 Speaker 2: to sniff sniff petrol. So kids will find something bad 606 00:27:22,893 --> 00:27:26,493 Speaker 2: to do. They will, they will, There's no doubt about it. 607 00:27:27,053 --> 00:27:29,613 Speaker 2: Glue sniffing used to be a serious thing, so. 608 00:27:30,253 --> 00:27:32,293 Speaker 3: Yer asol cans and the beating, you know, that was 609 00:27:32,333 --> 00:27:33,213 Speaker 3: a thing at my school. 610 00:27:33,333 --> 00:27:37,413 Speaker 2: Yeah, and there's no doubt that that's worse than vaping. 611 00:27:37,813 --> 00:27:40,453 Speaker 2: So I'm just all I'm saying is that out of 612 00:27:40,493 --> 00:27:42,613 Speaker 2: all the things at the moment to freak out about 613 00:27:42,613 --> 00:27:44,853 Speaker 2: and spend our energy on when it comes to focusing 614 00:27:44,933 --> 00:27:48,013 Speaker 2: on our kids, I just can't bring it bring myself 615 00:27:48,053 --> 00:27:51,013 Speaker 2: to freak out as much as other people are about vaping, 616 00:27:51,093 --> 00:27:53,093 Speaker 2: and I just worry about what the other options are. 617 00:27:53,173 --> 00:27:57,053 Speaker 2: If they can't release their rebellion valve with vaping, what 618 00:27:57,133 --> 00:28:01,453 Speaker 2: will it be percent not backing vaping in the classroom 619 00:28:01,573 --> 00:28:03,493 Speaker 2: or sneaking off at school and vaping. 620 00:28:03,253 --> 00:28:05,893 Speaker 3: Yeap, Oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty is the 621 00:28:06,013 --> 00:28:08,453 Speaker 3: number to call.

We had another text from a 671 00:30:14,773 --> 00:30:17,893 Speaker 2: young person who said that they don't want to vape, 672 00:30:17,893 --> 00:30:20,653 Speaker 2: but they just feel like a loser around people that 673 00:30:20,733 --> 00:30:23,413 Speaker 2: are vaping, which is odd because I'm not coming out 674 00:30:23,453 --> 00:30:26,293 Speaker 2: in support of vaping. Like I've described vapes as a 675 00:30:26,333 --> 00:30:29,733 Speaker 2: douche fluke before. I think the douchery do They're They're 676 00:30:29,773 --> 00:30:30,693 Speaker 2: incredibly uncool. 677 00:30:30,773 --> 00:30:32,173 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, Yeah. 678 00:30:32,053 --> 00:30:34,893 Speaker 17: I think I agree. We have staff that work here 679 00:30:34,933 --> 00:30:38,413 Speaker 17: and they're in their early twenties twenty nineteen to twenty two, 680 00:30:38,813 --> 00:30:42,453 Speaker 17: and they are addicted. They smoke vap during work, but 681 00:30:42,493 --> 00:30:44,653 Speaker 17: if they lose it, they have to go find it. 682 00:30:44,773 --> 00:30:47,253 Speaker 17: They can't work, they stop work and go look for 683 00:30:47,253 --> 00:30:49,533 Speaker 17: it because they're panicking because they can't find it. Just 684 00:30:49,613 --> 00:30:52,733 Speaker 17: shows how they're addicted to They are upholding the thing, yeah, 685 00:30:52,893 --> 00:30:54,773 Speaker 17: being with them so they can have it when they want. 686 00:30:54,853 --> 00:30:58,613 Speaker 2: Well, well, that's the thing about vaping that cigarette don't have. 687 00:30:58,813 --> 00:31:03,173 Speaker 2: If someone's smoking a cigarette in a room, absolutely everybody knows. 688 00:31:03,853 --> 00:31:07,493 Speaker 2: But if someone can can quite sneakily vape at their desk, 689 00:31:07,693 --> 00:31:09,213 Speaker 2: and you know, and there's a good chance that no 690 00:31:09,253 --> 00:31:11,733 Speaker 2: one will, no one will notice it. But but I 691 00:31:11,773 --> 00:31:13,533 Speaker 2: think we could all all agree, and I keep I'm 692 00:31:13,573 --> 00:31:17,093 Speaker 2: repeating myself here that vaping is nowhere near as bad 693 00:31:17,133 --> 00:31:18,493 Speaker 2: for you as smoking cigarettes. 694 00:31:19,253 --> 00:31:21,693 Speaker 17: No, it's just more addictive for the kids to have 695 00:31:21,773 --> 00:31:24,653 Speaker 17: something to hold, you know. Well, younger and I smoked, 696 00:31:25,133 --> 00:31:28,613 Speaker 17: you smoked the morning tea, lunchtime, and an afternoon tea. 697 00:31:28,613 --> 00:31:31,013 Speaker 17: Where they do it continuously all day and they have 698 00:31:31,133 --> 00:31:32,773 Speaker 17: to have it. It's that thing of having to have 699 00:31:32,893 --> 00:31:33,213 Speaker 17: it there. 700 00:31:33,573 --> 00:31:36,653 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's there's I used to have my studio. I 701 00:31:36,653 --> 00:31:38,813 Speaker 2: would look out and I'd see where people are vaped, 702 00:31:38,893 --> 00:31:41,733 Speaker 2: and they'd sit in the window. They couldn't really see me. 703 00:31:42,093 --> 00:31:44,373 Speaker 2: And you see people out there, they'd be scrolling on 704 00:31:44,413 --> 00:31:48,133 Speaker 2: their phone, vaping, scrollings vaping, scrolling vaping, and you go, boy, 705 00:31:48,213 --> 00:31:53,173 Speaker 2: you were you were running two heavy addictions right here. 706 00:31:54,133 --> 00:31:56,053 Speaker 2: Could you not just sit and look off into the 707 00:31:56,053 --> 00:31:59,613 Speaker 2: distance for a little bit here scrolling vaping, scrolling vaping? 708 00:31:59,933 --> 00:32:03,733 Speaker 3: Yeah, and what is your Yeah? Have you had a 709 00:32:03,813 --> 00:32:06,613 Speaker 3: chat to your your seventeen year old son about his vaping? 710 00:32:06,693 --> 00:32:08,253 Speaker 3: Is he Is he up for discussing that with you? 711 00:32:09,253 --> 00:32:09,453 Speaker 18: Yeah? 712 00:32:09,573 --> 00:32:13,253 Speaker 17: Yeah, he definitely is. And you know, like us is 713 00:32:13,293 --> 00:32:14,893 Speaker 17: all beds, we don't want to be told what to do. 714 00:32:14,973 --> 00:32:17,453 Speaker 17: So I can't tell them not to do it. I 715 00:32:17,493 --> 00:32:20,733 Speaker 17: can say, Look, nobody knows the side effects on it. 716 00:32:21,093 --> 00:32:23,813 Speaker 17: I'm glad you aren't smoking, but I don't think it's 717 00:32:23,893 --> 00:32:25,893 Speaker 17: right at the same time, but it is your choice. 718 00:32:26,693 --> 00:32:29,533 Speaker 17: But you could see how more addictivity is to hold 719 00:32:29,573 --> 00:32:32,093 Speaker 17: it into have it with him? Yeah, each day, you know, 720 00:32:32,253 --> 00:32:33,893 Speaker 17: it gets more and more so more there and I 721 00:32:33,893 --> 00:32:36,173 Speaker 17: think maybe, like you were stating before about the next 722 00:32:36,213 --> 00:32:39,413 Speaker 17: teen levels dropping, I feel that is a really good solution. 723 00:32:40,533 --> 00:32:43,693 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is interesting though, but you know, we always 724 00:32:43,693 --> 00:32:45,733 Speaker 2: freak out every generation. We've talked about this on the show. 725 00:32:45,773 --> 00:32:49,053 Speaker 2: Before they go back to Roman times and before Greek time, Socrates, 726 00:32:49,133 --> 00:32:52,013 Speaker 2: people have always been freaking freaking out about what young 727 00:32:52,053 --> 00:32:55,613 Speaker 2: people are up to. But interesting stats around alcohol consumption, 728 00:32:55,813 --> 00:32:58,813 Speaker 2: and I think alcohol can do obviously is an incredibly 729 00:32:58,893 --> 00:33:02,173 Speaker 2: risky thing. I mean, I drink myself, but I started 730 00:33:02,213 --> 00:33:05,093 Speaker 2: drinking way too young. And it's good to see that 731 00:33:05,173 --> 00:33:07,533 Speaker 2: kids are drinking less than they used to. There's less 732 00:33:07,573 --> 00:33:09,493 Speaker 2: alcohol in some than they used to, and I think 733 00:33:09,533 --> 00:33:11,093 Speaker 2: that's something that's a very positive thing. 734 00:33:11,973 --> 00:33:14,413 Speaker 17: Yeah, and it'd be harder to get Like alcohol is 735 00:33:14,453 --> 00:33:16,533 Speaker 17: harder to get vaping you can just buy it online 736 00:33:16,573 --> 00:33:18,933 Speaker 17: and say that you're eighteen. You take a box and 737 00:33:19,133 --> 00:33:21,213 Speaker 17: you can get it. You know, there's nothing to stop 738 00:33:21,253 --> 00:33:23,573 Speaker 17: you buying it, where alcohol is a lot harder to 739 00:33:23,573 --> 00:33:26,133 Speaker 17: buy online. There's a lot of checks and you've got 740 00:33:26,173 --> 00:33:29,013 Speaker 17: to put your driver's license in so they can't get 741 00:33:29,013 --> 00:33:30,613 Speaker 17: their alcohol as easy as they can. 742 00:33:30,893 --> 00:33:36,053 Speaker 2: When does your When does your sun turn eighteen in February? 743 00:33:36,133 --> 00:33:37,373 Speaker 17: So it's quite leankful to that. 744 00:33:37,853 --> 00:33:38,013 Speaker 8: Yeah. 745 00:33:38,093 --> 00:33:42,653 Speaker 2: Yeah, because because I'm liberal sort of parent in a 746 00:33:42,693 --> 00:33:44,813 Speaker 2: lot of ways, and that I believe that you give 747 00:33:44,813 --> 00:33:46,133 Speaker 2: them a little bit of freedom and as long as 748 00:33:46,173 --> 00:33:49,853 Speaker 2: they don't go too crazy, then you know, I'm not 749 00:33:49,853 --> 00:33:51,493 Speaker 2: going to crack down on the too hard. I'm a 750 00:33:51,493 --> 00:33:54,133 Speaker 2: big fan of trust and stuff, but it did seem 751 00:33:54,173 --> 00:33:56,373 Speaker 2: insane to me when my son turned eighteen and he 752 00:33:56,413 --> 00:33:59,173 Speaker 2: could suddenly walk into a bottle store and buy whatever 753 00:33:59,253 --> 00:34:01,813 Speaker 2: amount of alcohol he wanted. I'm not suggesting changing the 754 00:34:02,133 --> 00:34:05,173 Speaker 2: alcohol ages or anything, but it is quite confronting when 755 00:34:05,173 --> 00:34:07,613 Speaker 2: you just realize that your son at any time can 756 00:34:07,693 --> 00:34:09,573 Speaker 2: just walk down the road and buy a one one 757 00:34:09,613 --> 00:34:12,172 Speaker 2: two five of gin.

And what aftermath is going to happen 760 00:34:17,493 --> 00:34:18,453 Speaker 17: after drinking all that? 761 00:34:18,733 --> 00:34:22,333 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely mean it's terrible, Yeah, terribly dangerous one one 762 00:34:22,373 --> 00:34:23,652 Speaker 2: two five of gin.

The b it is nine to two. 770 00:34:43,853 --> 00:34:46,293 Speaker 2: You're just talking about nicotine and vaping. A lot of 771 00:34:46,293 --> 00:34:49,173 Speaker 2: people bring up nicotine and lurering. The amount of nicotine. 772 00:34:49,253 --> 00:34:51,893 Speaker 2: It is interesting to look into nicotine as an actual 773 00:34:52,453 --> 00:34:55,573 Speaker 2: in itsself outside of cigarettes. It isn't actually bad for you. 774 00:34:56,093 --> 00:34:58,573 Speaker 2: It is addictive so that it will lead you to 775 00:34:58,613 --> 00:35:01,692 Speaker 2: do the thing that you do to ingest it a lot. Yeah, 776 00:35:01,733 --> 00:35:04,253 Speaker 2: that's that's what my people have problem with vaping because 777 00:35:04,413 --> 00:35:06,173 Speaker 2: you need the nicotine. See how you take it, and 778 00:35:06,213 --> 00:35:07,733 Speaker 2: you could take it with gummies. You could take it 779 00:35:07,733 --> 00:35:12,053 Speaker 2: with gum. But nicotine has interesting effects on parkinson and Parkinson's. 780 00:35:12,133 --> 00:35:16,093 Speaker 2: Non nicotine consumers three times more likely developed Parkinson's. Nicotine 781 00:35:16,133 --> 00:35:18,692 Speaker 2: has been shown to help with Alzheimer's patients with those 782 00:35:18,693 --> 00:35:21,933 Speaker 2: taking nicotention show statistically significant improvements and reaction time and 783 00:35:21,973 --> 00:35:25,053 Speaker 2: memory and attention. Nicotine has been shown to enhance memory 784 00:35:25,093 --> 00:35:28,493 Speaker 2: and healthy people. Nicotine has been shown to help control ADHD. 785 00:35:28,773 --> 00:35:30,773 Speaker 2: It has been found to have some benefits in relief 786 00:35:30,773 --> 00:35:35,652 Speaker 2: of depression, benefits in fighting obesity, delaying arthritis. So there's 787 00:35:35,693 --> 00:35:37,973 Speaker 2: lots of studies out there that say that the problem 788 00:35:37,973 --> 00:35:40,853 Speaker 2: with nicotine is that it happened to be found in cigarettes. 789 00:35:40,973 --> 00:35:45,253 Speaker 2: Nicotine itself isn't harmful, of course, if nicotine is leading 790 00:35:45,293 --> 00:35:49,693 Speaker 2: you to freak out because you haven't brought your vape 791 00:35:49,693 --> 00:35:53,813 Speaker 2: with you and en forcing you to have addictive habits 792 00:35:53,853 --> 00:35:55,973 Speaker 2: like always having to you know, if it's affecting your life, 793 00:35:56,013 --> 00:35:57,853 Speaker 2: any addiction that affects your life in a bad way 794 00:35:58,693 --> 00:36:01,212 Speaker 2: in whatever that is in terms of how much time 795 00:36:01,213 --> 00:36:02,853 Speaker 2: you have just been away from your deskool all those 796 00:36:02,933 --> 00:36:04,093 Speaker 2: kind of things. And then sure it can be a 797 00:36:04,093 --> 00:36:07,573 Speaker 2: bad thing. But nicotine in itself is not bad for humans. 798 00:36:07,573 --> 00:36:09,733 Speaker 2: In fact, there's a a lot of evidence suggests it's 799 00:36:09,813 --> 00:36:10,533 Speaker 2: very good for our brains. 800 00:36:10,573 --> 00:36:12,733 Speaker 3: And when it comes to the addiction side of nicotine, 801 00:36:12,773 --> 00:36:15,853 Speaker 3: that's only half of the equation, right. The psychological addiction 802 00:36:15,973 --> 00:36:18,373 Speaker 3: is a big thing with smoking and vaping as well, 803 00:36:18,733 --> 00:36:20,933 Speaker 3: that it's got to be taken into consideration. 804 00:36:21,333 --> 00:36:24,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, but this text here on nine two nine two 805 00:36:24,253 --> 00:36:26,253 Speaker 2: is kind of what I'm trying to say. We talk 806 00:36:26,293 --> 00:36:28,973 Speaker 2: about vaping, climate change, healthy foods, blah blah blah. Let 807 00:36:28,973 --> 00:36:31,053 Speaker 2: the goal for twenty twenty five be to get students 808 00:36:31,093 --> 00:36:34,333 Speaker 2: to school regularly and to be involved doing sports cultural activities, 809 00:36:34,933 --> 00:36:37,933 Speaker 2: and then at least be be literate. And that's kind 810 00:36:37,933 --> 00:36:40,173 Speaker 2: of my point. My point is that in the energies 811 00:36:40,213 --> 00:36:42,413 Speaker 2: that we're going to spend on freaking out about as 812 00:36:42,453 --> 00:36:46,613 Speaker 2: a country. I think vaping may not be as big 813 00:36:46,613 --> 00:36:49,573 Speaker 2: a problem as we are expending the energy on. I'm 814 00:36:49,613 --> 00:36:52,692 Speaker 2: not saying it's good, but I'm just saying that kids 815 00:36:52,733 --> 00:36:55,493 Speaker 2: will go for something bad. But let's focus on put 816 00:36:55,493 --> 00:36:57,893 Speaker 2: our energies into some really really positive things like that. 817 00:36:58,293 --> 00:37:01,093 Speaker 2: You know, and you can harangue kids into You can 818 00:37:01,133 --> 00:37:03,893 Speaker 2: haran kids a lot, but they will always find something 819 00:37:03,973 --> 00:37:04,493 Speaker 2: naughty to do. 820 00:37:04,853 --> 00:37:09,293 Speaker 3: Absolutely, George, you've got a son who is vaping eighteen? 821 00:37:09,373 --> 00:37:09,733 Speaker 10: Yeah, I do. 822 00:37:10,573 --> 00:37:13,173 Speaker 6: I got a good subject here.

I think it's kind 833 00:37:40,933 --> 00:37:47,013 Speaker 10: of dangerous when we start talking about something is more, yeah, 834 00:37:47,053 --> 00:37:50,853 Speaker 10: it is better than something else. That kind of rhetoric 835 00:37:50,893 --> 00:37:54,373 Speaker 10: I think plays straight into what the big tobacco companies want. 836 00:37:55,173 --> 00:37:57,013 Speaker 10: Because I do think they're laughing all the way to 837 00:37:57,053 --> 00:38:00,333 Speaker 10: the bank with this. You know, I think marking at 838 00:38:00,333 --> 00:38:05,013 Speaker 10: a marketing as a way of getting out of smoking 839 00:38:05,373 --> 00:38:08,493 Speaker 10: is probably a good thing. But I think we're we 840 00:38:08,533 --> 00:38:12,533 Speaker 10: start marketing it with strawberry flavors and candy floss flavors 841 00:38:12,573 --> 00:38:15,533 Speaker 10: and things like that. I don't think the big big 842 00:38:15,573 --> 00:38:18,172 Speaker 10: companies are actually looking at the people that are trying 843 00:38:18,173 --> 00:38:20,293 Speaker 10: to stop smoking. I think they're more looking at bringing 844 00:38:20,373 --> 00:38:23,973 Speaker 10: in new people and specifically children. 845 00:38:24,453 --> 00:38:26,853 Speaker 2: Now, George, but George, would you would you? Would you 846 00:38:26,933 --> 00:38:31,053 Speaker 2: admit though, that kids will find a way to rebel. 847 00:38:32,173 --> 00:38:34,053 Speaker 2: You can't control what that's going to be. But they 848 00:38:34,093 --> 00:38:37,293 Speaker 2: will find teenagers, not all of them, but some of them. Me, 849 00:38:37,413 --> 00:38:39,693 Speaker 2: particularly when I was a kid, were looking for a 850 00:38:39,693 --> 00:38:41,333 Speaker 2: way to rebel. And when I was a kid, I 851 00:38:41,373 --> 00:38:44,413 Speaker 2: looked for a way to avow by basically smoking and 852 00:38:45,333 --> 00:38:47,172 Speaker 2: you know, trying to get hold of any alcohol I could. 853 00:38:47,813 --> 00:38:50,453 Speaker 10: So yeah, I think they will, and I think they'll 854 00:38:50,453 --> 00:38:52,253 Speaker 10: always try and find something. I don't think that's a 855 00:38:52,253 --> 00:38:56,773 Speaker 10: good enough excuse to do nothing. And certainly my experience 856 00:38:56,933 --> 00:39:00,413 Speaker 10: is our son's high school is essentially doing nothing. 857 00:39:00,453 --> 00:39:00,652 Speaker 2: Now. 858 00:39:02,053 --> 00:39:06,373 Speaker 10: It's absolutely right, and we've tried everything, like we've been 859 00:39:06,373 --> 00:39:12,053 Speaker 10: the counselors, we've tried quit smoking hotlines. The hotlines don't 860 00:39:12,053 --> 00:39:13,933 Speaker 10: want to know him because he's under eighteen. They can't 861 00:39:13,933 --> 00:39:17,373 Speaker 10: deal with them, so they basically wash their hands. A 862 00:39:17,413 --> 00:39:22,213 Speaker 10: lot of a lot of the information that's out there. 863 00:39:23,693 --> 00:39:26,373 Speaker 10: I think, you know, there's all these goals about stopping 864 00:39:26,373 --> 00:39:29,373 Speaker 10: people smoking by twenty twenty five and stopping smoking by 865 00:39:29,413 --> 00:39:32,653 Speaker 10: twenty thirty that if they can shift people into vaping 866 00:39:33,093 --> 00:39:35,693 Speaker 10: the end, I've achieved their goal. But the problem is, 867 00:39:36,013 --> 00:39:38,813 Speaker 10: you know, we've got all these kids that have never smoked, 868 00:39:38,893 --> 00:39:41,172 Speaker 10: and all of a sudden they are vaping. But all 869 00:39:41,213 --> 00:39:43,493 Speaker 10: the information has kind of aimed at, well, it's not 870 00:39:43,573 --> 00:39:45,813 Speaker 10: as bad as smoking, so you know that's what we 871 00:39:45,853 --> 00:39:48,172 Speaker 10: hear back from our son. Well you know, it's better 872 00:39:48,213 --> 00:39:49,973 Speaker 10: than smoking, And I'm like, yeah, it is, but you've 873 00:39:50,013 --> 00:39:50,453 Speaker 10: never smoked. 874 00:39:50,533 --> 00:39:51,133 Speaker 3: Mate. 875 00:39:51,653 --> 00:39:54,213 Speaker 2: Hey, thanks, sorry, George, We've just we've got to go 876 00:39:54,693 --> 00:39:57,133 Speaker 2: to a break. But thank you so much for the call. 877 00:39:57,253 --> 00:40:00,293 Speaker 2: It was very interesting. And look, I would definitely be 878 00:40:00,773 --> 00:40:02,613 Speaker 2: concerned if my son. Don't get me wrong, if my 879 00:40:02,693 --> 00:40:04,653 Speaker 2: kids were voping at eleven, I would be concerned. 880 00:40:04,773 --> 00:40:07,213 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, Oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty.

What I 896 00:40:51,933 --> 00:40:54,013 Speaker 2: said I said is of all the things we're freaking 897 00:40:54,013 --> 00:40:56,373 Speaker 2: out about kids, I'm not sure if vaping is the 898 00:40:56,413 --> 00:40:59,573 Speaker 2: big freak out and that kids that we need to 899 00:40:59,573 --> 00:41:01,533 Speaker 2: spend all our energy on freaking out on that. I 900 00:41:01,533 --> 00:41:04,333 Speaker 2: think kids will find a way to rebel. That's happened 901 00:41:04,333 --> 00:41:07,453 Speaker 2: for all of eternity. And all of time when I 902 00:41:07,533 --> 00:41:14,413 Speaker 2: was a kid, they rebelling by smoking and drinking. And actually, 903 00:41:14,493 --> 00:41:15,893 Speaker 2: when I was a kid, there's a lot of people 904 00:41:16,013 --> 00:41:19,213 Speaker 2: sniffing glue. So there's always going to be a vice 905 00:41:19,253 --> 00:41:21,693 Speaker 2: that kids are going for. But the amount of alcohol 906 00:41:21,733 --> 00:41:24,333 Speaker 2: consumption for young people is on the way down, which 907 00:41:24,413 --> 00:41:25,013 Speaker 2: is a positive. 908 00:41:25,053 --> 00:41:25,333 Speaker 3: Yeah. 909 00:41:25,333 --> 00:41:28,693 Speaker 2: Absolutely, So I'm just saying, look, in terms of everything 910 00:41:28,733 --> 00:41:30,812 Speaker 2: that we freak out about, I'm not as worried about 911 00:41:30,853 --> 00:41:32,453 Speaker 2: vaping as I've been worried about a lot of other 912 00:41:32,493 --> 00:41:35,053 Speaker 2: things in the time. Yeah, but that is ye as 913 00:41:35,093 --> 00:41:40,093 Speaker 2: I say, witness relocation, death threats, a lot of anger. 914 00:41:40,253 --> 00:41:42,573 Speaker 2: I've really poked the hornous ness with that opinion. 915 00:41:42,693 --> 00:41:45,493 Speaker 3: You certainly have plenty of texts coming through on nine 916 00:41:45,533 --> 00:41:49,693 Speaker 3: to nine to two. This one Gooday, guys, I agree 917 00:41:49,733 --> 00:41:53,373 Speaker 3: with you Matt's on this one. People will find something else. 918 00:41:53,413 --> 00:41:56,253 Speaker 3: There are a lot of reasons why people go to 919 00:41:56,493 --> 00:41:59,853 Speaker 3: addictions individually, need to address the root causes. But kids 920 00:41:59,853 --> 00:42:00,413 Speaker 3: will rebel. 921 00:42:00,613 --> 00:42:02,692 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's the thing, and you've just got 922 00:42:02,693 --> 00:42:05,853 Speaker 2: to You've got to be careful what you know, You 923 00:42:05,933 --> 00:42:08,172 Speaker 2: really crack down on something and they'll find something else. 924 00:42:08,613 --> 00:42:10,252 Speaker 2: And you don't know that that other thing they find 925 00:42:10,333 --> 00:42:13,333 Speaker 2: isn't going to be worse. And personally, I just think, 926 00:42:13,653 --> 00:42:16,333 Speaker 2: thank goodness, kids aren't smoking as young as they were 927 00:42:16,373 --> 00:42:18,732 Speaker 2: when I was a kid. I mean that was people 928 00:42:18,813 --> 00:42:20,853 Speaker 2: don't even know that. People don't even know like I 929 00:42:20,853 --> 00:42:24,853 Speaker 2: remember once I was at Christmas dinner and with myself 930 00:42:24,893 --> 00:42:28,413 Speaker 2: and my three sisters, and my mum said to my sisters, 931 00:42:28,413 --> 00:42:30,413 Speaker 2: why can't you be good like Matt? He doesn't smoke, 932 00:42:30,453 --> 00:42:33,413 Speaker 2: he doesn't drink. Why can't you be good like him? 933 00:42:33,933 --> 00:42:36,733 Speaker 2: And my sisters went, what are you talking about? He 934 00:42:36,893 --> 00:42:41,413 Speaker 2: is an absolute shocker. And so you don't really know. 935 00:42:41,493 --> 00:42:43,613 Speaker 2: But when I was into me that kids were smoking 936 00:42:43,613 --> 00:42:46,573 Speaker 2: it intermediate, that's when they took it up. And that 937 00:42:46,813 --> 00:42:49,133 Speaker 2: is terrifying that the idea that kids started smoking when 938 00:42:49,133 --> 00:42:51,413 Speaker 2: they were eleven and twelve, that was terrible and that 939 00:42:51,533 --> 00:42:53,973 Speaker 2: isn't happening. That isn't happening at and that's a good thing, 940 00:42:54,053 --> 00:42:57,173 Speaker 2: and that's something to be very happy with in a society. 941 00:42:57,453 --> 00:42:58,933 Speaker 2: So the next thing we do is we move on 942 00:42:58,973 --> 00:43:00,733 Speaker 2: to vapor and we absolutely freak out about it. And 943 00:43:00,733 --> 00:43:02,453 Speaker 2: I'm not saying it's a good thing, but I just 944 00:43:02,493 --> 00:43:05,413 Speaker 2: think we've got to be aware that kids will rebel. 945 00:43:05,533 --> 00:43:09,212 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, Dylan. You started vaping it seen, is that right? 946 00:43:10,173 --> 00:43:14,013 Speaker 19: Yes, yeah, very young. I think mainly it's because I've 947 00:43:14,093 --> 00:43:17,813 Speaker 19: been I was around my parents when they i'd grown up, 948 00:43:17,853 --> 00:43:22,133 Speaker 19: you know, around smokers and around kind of like older groups, 949 00:43:23,253 --> 00:43:26,133 Speaker 19: so it was pretty easy to access got into it 950 00:43:26,133 --> 00:43:28,773 Speaker 19: because you know other people did, and then you know, 951 00:43:28,973 --> 00:43:31,253 Speaker 19: you get a head rush off negatine. It's like one 952 00:43:31,253 --> 00:43:35,413 Speaker 19: of the greatest things you ever fail. And then yeah, 953 00:43:35,813 --> 00:43:39,053 Speaker 19: I did it for years until the start of this year. 954 00:43:39,093 --> 00:43:41,213 Speaker 19: I decided that, you know, it's just I felt that 955 00:43:42,453 --> 00:43:46,133 Speaker 19: it's just well, you know, not made out for it. 956 00:43:46,333 --> 00:43:49,453 Speaker 3: You know, you're just cutting out there a little bit, Dylan, 957 00:43:49,533 --> 00:43:51,493 Speaker 3: So just maybe moved to the left. But you're you're 958 00:43:51,653 --> 00:43:54,093 Speaker 3: nineteen years now and you've managed to quit vaping. 959 00:43:55,093 --> 00:43:59,212 Speaker 19: Yes, yes, I've managed to quit vaping. And I did 960 00:43:59,253 --> 00:44:03,533 Speaker 19: that by actually taking up smoking, which a good bit backwards. 961 00:44:03,573 --> 00:44:06,533 Speaker 19: But I feel like it's easier to quit smoking that 962 00:44:06,653 --> 00:44:07,853 Speaker 19: it was to quit vaping. 963 00:44:08,333 --> 00:44:10,453 Speaker 2: A minute that, Dylan, are you still smoking? 964 00:44:11,333 --> 00:44:15,453 Speaker 19: No, Now, I've fully stopped smoking because I felt it 965 00:44:15,493 --> 00:44:18,853 Speaker 19: was easier to quit smoking cigarette. 966 00:44:18,933 --> 00:44:21,013 Speaker 2: Well, I guess. I mean. The thing is with smoking 967 00:44:21,013 --> 00:44:25,133 Speaker 2: cigarettes is that smoking cigarettes is an incredibly full on thing. Yeah, 968 00:44:25,213 --> 00:44:28,093 Speaker 2: they stink, They make a drama. And one of the 969 00:44:28,133 --> 00:44:30,133 Speaker 2: reasons why it's so easy to vape And tell me 970 00:44:30,133 --> 00:44:31,893 Speaker 2: if I'm wrong, Dylan, but it is because you can 971 00:44:31,933 --> 00:44:35,333 Speaker 2: do it anywhere. It's so convenient. And I don't remember. 972 00:44:35,173 --> 00:44:37,172 Speaker 19: Doing it in math class, you know, like the bang 973 00:44:37,173 --> 00:44:39,293 Speaker 19: of math class, and you could never ever do that 974 00:44:39,413 --> 00:44:41,573 Speaker 19: and with a cigarette because it would stink out the 975 00:44:41,733 --> 00:44:45,652 Speaker 19: entire room. So when I agree with you about when 976 00:44:45,653 --> 00:44:49,853 Speaker 19: you're talking about nicotine, you know, having it obviously has benefits, 977 00:44:49,933 --> 00:44:53,773 Speaker 19: but I feel like it also creates relates more of 978 00:44:53,933 --> 00:44:57,213 Speaker 19: like a reliant you know, people rely on it with 979 00:44:57,253 --> 00:45:00,813 Speaker 19: their stress relieve. I think it suppressed my appetite a lot. 980 00:45:01,093 --> 00:45:02,213 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if it's the. 981 00:45:02,213 --> 00:45:06,013 Speaker 19: Same with other people, but yeah, I feel like, you know, 982 00:45:06,533 --> 00:45:08,293 Speaker 19: their benefit benefiting fact. 983 00:45:08,653 --> 00:45:15,013 Speaker 2: But you know, yeah, I mean there's benefits. There's lots 984 00:45:15,053 --> 00:45:18,333 Speaker 2: of benefits in terms of enhanced memory. It helps ADHD, 985 00:45:18,453 --> 00:45:23,173 Speaker 2: It's been shown to help Alzheona's patients, Parkinson's and fighting diabetes. 986 00:45:23,373 --> 00:45:26,053 Speaker 2: But but the thing is, it's how you take it 987 00:45:26,093 --> 00:45:29,732 Speaker 2: exactly as you're saying, Dylan, Because you're addicted to it, 988 00:45:29,813 --> 00:45:32,413 Speaker 2: So it's not so much the nicotine. And like there's 989 00:45:32,413 --> 00:45:34,333 Speaker 2: a lot of people texting through that nicotine has kind 990 00:45:34,373 --> 00:45:36,213 Speaker 2: of have effects on heart rate and all that kind 991 00:45:36,213 --> 00:45:39,013 Speaker 2: of stuff. I'm not denying any of that, but I'm 992 00:45:39,093 --> 00:45:42,573 Speaker 2: just saying it's not. But the thing is, it's as 993 00:45:42,573 --> 00:45:46,013 Speaker 2: it was with cigarettes. The nicotine got you smoking the cigarettes, 994 00:45:46,053 --> 00:45:48,573 Speaker 2: and that was a bad thing. And if the nicoturitine 995 00:45:48,613 --> 00:45:50,453 Speaker 2: and the addiction to that is making you vaping and 996 00:45:50,493 --> 00:45:52,973 Speaker 2: that's not making you have that's an addiction that's making 997 00:45:52,973 --> 00:45:55,413 Speaker 2: your life worse, then of course the nicotine is not 998 00:45:55,453 --> 00:45:57,253 Speaker 2: a good thing because it's because it's getting you to 999 00:45:57,293 --> 00:45:58,813 Speaker 2: do something that you don't want to do and you 1000 00:45:59,293 --> 00:46:01,053 Speaker 2: are dependent on it. 1001 00:46:01,133 --> 00:46:04,653 Speaker 19: And in vaping, I know that the amount of nicotine 1002 00:46:04,773 --> 00:46:10,133 Speaker 19: in the vape liquid is significantly higher than in sea. Yeah, 1003 00:46:10,213 --> 00:46:13,773 Speaker 19: I'm pretty sure one drag of a vape of fifty 1004 00:46:14,213 --> 00:46:17,413 Speaker 19: or five percent, which is about fifty milligrams of nicotine, 1005 00:46:17,933 --> 00:46:21,493 Speaker 19: is equal to her smoking I think seven cigarettes at once, 1006 00:46:21,733 --> 00:46:23,613 Speaker 19: as in the nicotine side of it. 1007 00:46:23,853 --> 00:46:27,613 Speaker 3: Yeah, so why did changing to cigarettes help you quit? Dylan? 1008 00:46:27,693 --> 00:46:29,652 Speaker 3: That you couldn't do it all the time, You had 1009 00:46:29,653 --> 00:46:31,693 Speaker 3: to go out and have a cigarettes and perhaps you 1010 00:46:31,693 --> 00:46:34,333 Speaker 3: didn't like the flat a taste of it. I just 1011 00:46:34,493 --> 00:46:36,732 Speaker 3: can't understand why that got you off. Is that those 1012 00:46:36,813 --> 00:46:39,133 Speaker 3: those are the core reasons. 1013 00:46:38,413 --> 00:46:40,973 Speaker 19: Mainly, Mainly that, and I feel like it was a 1014 00:46:40,973 --> 00:46:42,293 Speaker 19: lot harsher on my lungs. 1015 00:46:43,053 --> 00:46:43,573 Speaker 12: It was a lot. 1016 00:46:44,733 --> 00:46:49,252 Speaker 19: It's a different type of smoke, you know, it's like tar, 1017 00:46:49,413 --> 00:46:54,213 Speaker 19: It's not whatever cotton burning is in a vape. I 1018 00:46:54,253 --> 00:46:57,973 Speaker 19: feel like, you know, maybe this it's just me, but 1019 00:46:58,013 --> 00:47:01,053 Speaker 19: I know that vaping wets your lungs and then smoking 1020 00:47:01,133 --> 00:47:02,813 Speaker 19: dries it out. So I feel like it kind of 1021 00:47:02,893 --> 00:47:06,533 Speaker 19: just sweat as it sounds it kind of altered. And 1022 00:47:06,573 --> 00:47:08,613 Speaker 19: then the smell of it, And then I was always 1023 00:47:08,653 --> 00:47:11,053 Speaker 19: having to have gum, and it's all this effort. You know, 1024 00:47:11,093 --> 00:47:12,853 Speaker 19: you can't just pully vape out your pocket and use it. 1025 00:47:12,973 --> 00:47:15,933 Speaker 19: You have to go go outside and have a cigarette. 1026 00:47:16,333 --> 00:47:18,573 Speaker 19: It just became not worth it and it was too 1027 00:47:18,613 --> 00:47:20,213 Speaker 19: much of my lungs, and I just, yeah, I just 1028 00:47:20,213 --> 00:47:21,333 Speaker 19: slowly stopped over time. 1029 00:47:21,613 --> 00:47:23,253 Speaker 2: That's an interesting thing. I mean, there's there's a lot 1030 00:47:23,253 --> 00:47:25,813 Speaker 2: more Edmond around smoking, But how did smoking make you 1031 00:47:25,893 --> 00:47:28,293 Speaker 2: feel compared to vaping. 1032 00:47:31,733 --> 00:47:35,253 Speaker 19: It's it's kind of like straight, like a like a whiskey. 1033 00:47:35,293 --> 00:47:36,933 Speaker 19: You know, you kind of get like a taste for it. 1034 00:47:37,013 --> 00:47:39,693 Speaker 19: You know, first year, first cigarette, Oh, it tastes disgusting, 1035 00:47:39,813 --> 00:47:42,453 Speaker 19: it's all this, but then over time you get a 1036 00:47:42,533 --> 00:47:44,973 Speaker 19: taste for it. I just felt that, you know, you 1037 00:47:45,053 --> 00:47:49,853 Speaker 19: can have it strawberry, guava, vapor, beny, you get all 1038 00:47:49,853 --> 00:47:53,172 Speaker 19: these flavors and colors, and yeah, it's a lot more 1039 00:47:53,213 --> 00:47:55,933 Speaker 19: appealing to the eye and appealing to other people. But 1040 00:47:55,973 --> 00:47:59,213 Speaker 19: then you have this cigarette in the packet that's got 1041 00:47:59,573 --> 00:48:00,373 Speaker 19: these dried. 1042 00:48:00,213 --> 00:48:01,133 Speaker 10: Up lungs on it. 1043 00:48:01,133 --> 00:48:04,853 Speaker 19: It's just it's a lot of a social impression. I 1044 00:48:04,853 --> 00:48:05,853 Speaker 19: feel like as well. 1045 00:48:05,893 --> 00:48:09,652 Speaker 2: It's interesting. I read this book on addiction and it 1046 00:48:09,693 --> 00:48:12,733 Speaker 2: was both a neuroscientist called Dr Judson Brewer, and he 1047 00:48:12,853 --> 00:48:14,733 Speaker 2: was talking about he'd have people that had smoked their 1048 00:48:14,733 --> 00:48:17,573 Speaker 2: whole lives and they'd never concentrated on a cigarette, and 1049 00:48:17,613 --> 00:48:21,093 Speaker 2: he used mindfulness to get people off the cigarettes. And 1050 00:48:21,133 --> 00:48:24,493 Speaker 2: so he'd say, okay, smoke the cigarette and concentrate on 1051 00:48:24,653 --> 00:48:29,212 Speaker 2: every flavor as it goes in. And generally speaking, he said, 1052 00:48:29,253 --> 00:48:32,493 Speaker 2: people were disgusted by what they tasted as it as 1053 00:48:32,533 --> 00:48:35,453 Speaker 2: it went in, and that's one thing that vape doesn't have. 1054 00:48:35,653 --> 00:48:39,533 Speaker 2: I mean, if you really concentrated on the flavor of vape, 1055 00:48:39,573 --> 00:48:42,172 Speaker 2: it's actually pretty good. Yeah, yereas if you actually as 1056 00:48:42,253 --> 00:48:44,293 Speaker 2: much as we think that the taste of cigarettes is good, 1057 00:48:44,293 --> 00:48:47,453 Speaker 2: if you actually super concentrate on it, it does taste 1058 00:48:47,493 --> 00:48:48,013 Speaker 2: like poison. 1059 00:48:48,213 --> 00:48:51,212 Speaker 3: They were pretty faeral.

And seriously like, 1074 00:49:32,333 --> 00:49:35,573 Speaker 5: I'm right behind what Australia's doing. I think it's great. 1075 00:49:35,613 --> 00:49:38,493 Speaker 5: There's so many better alternatives to do in life than 1076 00:49:38,773 --> 00:49:43,013 Speaker 5: either smoking or vaping. But do you remember going back 1077 00:49:43,653 --> 00:49:47,653 Speaker 5: to the days of when we had these synthetic cannabis yep. 1078 00:49:49,093 --> 00:49:51,933 Speaker 5: And I was living in Australia when i'd come back 1079 00:49:52,093 --> 00:49:55,293 Speaker 5: here on holidays to New Zealand, and I'd see that 1080 00:49:55,533 --> 00:49:58,333 Speaker 5: young people could buy it from milk bars and things 1081 00:49:59,213 --> 00:50:01,212 Speaker 5: or Darius, and I used to think, what the hell 1082 00:50:01,453 --> 00:50:05,733 Speaker 5: is this? This is rubbish. Don't people realize the damage? 1083 00:50:05,773 --> 00:50:09,133 Speaker 5: And you know, once people actually got on board and 1084 00:50:09,213 --> 00:50:12,453 Speaker 5: said this is really bad, get rid of it. It's 1085 00:50:12,493 --> 00:50:17,013 Speaker 5: all about mindset, and yeah, in terms of smoking, having 1086 00:50:17,093 --> 00:50:20,213 Speaker 5: been a smoker and someone who's done a lot of 1087 00:50:20,253 --> 00:50:24,573 Speaker 5: sport and enjoyed the outdoors and everything, it's about choices, 1088 00:50:25,173 --> 00:50:29,053 Speaker 5: deciding that you know, you want to stop smoking, you 1089 00:50:29,093 --> 00:50:31,413 Speaker 5: want to do X, y Z, and just getting on 1090 00:50:31,533 --> 00:50:31,893 Speaker 5: with it. 1091 00:50:32,173 --> 00:50:35,413 Speaker 2: Hey, Die, how did you you know, obviously famously difficult 1092 00:50:35,413 --> 00:50:37,973 Speaker 2: to give up smoking, how did you go about it? Die? 1093 00:50:38,933 --> 00:50:41,772 Speaker 5: Well, I've been smoking for many years and being really 1094 00:50:41,813 --> 00:50:45,133 Speaker 5: healthy with it. So I just decided I got sick 1095 00:50:45,253 --> 00:50:47,853 Speaker 5: of it. I did not did not want to do 1096 00:50:47,893 --> 00:50:50,773 Speaker 5: it anymore. And so what I did. I actually smoked 1097 00:50:50,773 --> 00:50:51,693 Speaker 5: the very weak ones. 1098 00:50:52,373 --> 00:50:53,533 Speaker 14: Yeah, and I cut them. 1099 00:50:53,413 --> 00:50:56,933 Speaker 5: Back from about ten a day down to six, down 1100 00:50:57,053 --> 00:51:00,813 Speaker 5: to four, down to two. When I got down to one, 1101 00:51:01,213 --> 00:51:04,053 Speaker 5: I just said that's it. I bought a packet. I 1102 00:51:04,093 --> 00:51:06,133 Speaker 5: don't need it, I don't need to open it. I'm 1103 00:51:06,133 --> 00:51:08,973 Speaker 5: not going to have another cigarette. And that was nearly 1104 00:51:09,013 --> 00:51:14,293 Speaker 5: three months, agots, and I'm just determined. I don't want 1105 00:51:14,293 --> 00:51:17,733 Speaker 5: to go back there. And I understand what you're saying 1106 00:51:17,813 --> 00:51:22,573 Speaker 5: that about rebellious, but Matt, I've seen a lot of people, 1107 00:51:24,293 --> 00:51:28,813 Speaker 5: you know, kids, adults, all sorts who are rebellious, got 1108 00:51:28,893 --> 00:51:32,333 Speaker 5: that spirit, and that just means that someone needs a 1109 00:51:32,413 --> 00:51:36,093 Speaker 5: bit more guidance or a different guidance into you know, 1110 00:51:36,213 --> 00:51:38,533 Speaker 5: putting their energy where they're going to get a lot 1111 00:51:38,573 --> 00:51:42,933 Speaker 5: better back from consequences of their actions. So I don't 1112 00:51:42,973 --> 00:51:47,533 Speaker 5: think it's any reason not to ban. They think we 1113 00:51:47,693 --> 00:51:50,253 Speaker 5: just need to get a whole different attitude to it. 1114 00:51:50,853 --> 00:51:53,413 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think I would say, though die because 1115 00:51:53,453 --> 00:51:55,533 Speaker 2: I was an incredibly rebellious kid, but I had a 1116 00:51:55,653 --> 00:52:00,013 Speaker 2: very loving family and every reason not to rebel. I 1117 00:52:00,013 --> 00:52:02,333 Speaker 2: felt like I just had a rebellious gene in me 1118 00:52:02,453 --> 00:52:05,133 Speaker 2: that made me wanted to do things that I shouldn't do. 1119 00:52:05,213 --> 00:52:09,213 Speaker 2: And I'm and all I'm saying is I that manifested 1120 00:52:09,213 --> 00:52:11,333 Speaker 2: in me taking up smoking at a very young age. 1121 00:52:11,693 --> 00:52:14,293 Speaker 2: And I just think that vaping is better than that. 1122 00:52:15,853 --> 00:52:18,893 Speaker 5: I'm not saying your family wasn't loving it. It's a totally 1123 00:52:18,893 --> 00:52:23,652 Speaker 5: different thing. But rebelliousness is you know, it comes from 1124 00:52:23,693 --> 00:52:26,212 Speaker 5: a whole lot of different things in the spirit, right, 1125 00:52:27,573 --> 00:52:32,213 Speaker 5: It just needs different set of guidance. I've seen people, 1126 00:52:32,893 --> 00:52:35,172 Speaker 5: you know, I've done a bit of sailing, yep, and 1127 00:52:35,213 --> 00:52:42,293 Speaker 5: I've seen some really hardline rebellious you know, boy, really 1128 00:52:42,653 --> 00:52:48,133 Speaker 5: tough characters out at sea on yachts and you see 1129 00:52:48,173 --> 00:52:50,693 Speaker 5: different all different sort of attitudes. And there's room for 1130 00:52:50,773 --> 00:52:56,573 Speaker 5: everyone in life. But it's about different things inspire different 1131 00:52:56,613 --> 00:52:58,773 Speaker 5: people to take a different path. 1132 00:52:59,613 --> 00:53:01,733 Speaker 2: Oh yeah. And there's no doubt if there was more 1133 00:53:02,493 --> 00:53:05,373 Speaker 2: inspiring things for people. And we've had a few texts 1134 00:53:05,373 --> 00:53:08,573 Speaker 2: on that that are kind of agreeing with me. But yeah, 1135 00:53:08,573 --> 00:53:10,933 Speaker 2: if we if we focus on getting kids and giving 1136 00:53:11,053 --> 00:53:14,853 Speaker 2: showing them opportunities and things that really really important and 1137 00:53:15,093 --> 00:53:18,613 Speaker 2: inspire them and show them a different world, then vaping 1138 00:53:18,653 --> 00:53:21,813 Speaker 2: will will will be way down on their list of priorities. 1139 00:53:22,213 --> 00:53:24,493 Speaker 2: It's just a matter of finding that right thing for 1140 00:53:24,533 --> 00:53:27,173 Speaker 2: each kid, and that's that's difficult to do. There's limited 1141 00:53:27,213 --> 00:53:28,053 Speaker 2: resources out there. 1142 00:53:30,133 --> 00:53:33,333 Speaker 5: Thanks so much, guys, But I do think it begins 1143 00:53:33,893 --> 00:53:38,413 Speaker 5: with doing what Australia is saying. Yep, you know zerohtolerance, 1144 00:53:38,533 --> 00:53:41,533 Speaker 5: that's it, banning it from schools, bang, thank you. 1145 00:53:42,493 --> 00:53:44,933 Speaker 3: I'm just going to say, oh, thank you, die that's 1146 00:53:44,933 --> 00:53:46,973 Speaker 3: a right.

For me, and I've had many 1148 00:53:49,973 --> 00:53:53,813 Speaker 3: attempts to quit smoking in cigarettes, and for whatever reason, 1149 00:53:53,933 --> 00:53:57,213 Speaker 3: vaping was the one thing that is meant that I 1150 00:53:57,253 --> 00:54:00,453 Speaker 3: haven't smoked a ciggy in about five years, and I 1151 00:54:00,453 --> 00:54:03,013 Speaker 3: think that's a good thing overall. But I know I'm 1152 00:54:03,093 --> 00:54:04,933 Speaker 3: just one case of many. But to me, I think 1153 00:54:05,013 --> 00:54:07,013 Speaker 3: vaping has been has been successful for a lot of 1154 00:54:07,053 --> 00:54:10,053 Speaker 3: people to get off rats, which are far worse for 1155 00:54:10,093 --> 00:54:10,533 Speaker 3: your health. 1156 00:54:10,693 --> 00:54:12,413 Speaker 2: This Texas good that's come through a ninety two nine 1157 00:54:12,413 --> 00:54:14,893 Speaker 2: two Hi guys, vapors look like they're walking around sucking 1158 00:54:14,933 --> 00:54:17,212 Speaker 2: on baby's bottles from Laurie. It is. I mean, there's 1159 00:54:17,253 --> 00:54:20,413 Speaker 2: no doubt it's not cool because because look, smoking is 1160 00:54:20,413 --> 00:54:23,293 Speaker 2: in pretty bad for you. But and this was orchestrated 1161 00:54:23,333 --> 00:54:25,373 Speaker 2: by the smoking companies to get it into movies. But 1162 00:54:25,453 --> 00:54:27,373 Speaker 2: there was a way you can smoke that looks cool. 1163 00:54:27,613 --> 00:54:29,573 Speaker 2: It's terrible for you. And I don't support it. But 1164 00:54:29,613 --> 00:54:32,333 Speaker 2: it looks cool. But there is absolutely no way you 1165 00:54:32,373 --> 00:54:34,533 Speaker 2: can vapor and look cool. Now it is the least 1166 00:54:34,813 --> 00:54:39,533 Speaker 2: cool looking thing you can do and look hopefully, maybe 1167 00:54:39,533 --> 00:54:41,053 Speaker 2: people just need to look in the mirror when they 1168 00:54:41,253 --> 00:54:44,093 Speaker 2: when they see themselves sucking on the douce flute. 1169 00:54:44,173 --> 00:54:46,613 Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, eight hundred eighty ten eighty is the number 1170 00:54:46,653 --> 00:54:48,212 Speaker 3: to call. Twenty three pass. 1171 00:54:47,893 --> 00:54:56,493 Speaker 1: Two Matt Heathen, Tyler Adams afternoons cool Oh eight hundred 1172 00:54:56,573 --> 00:54:58,293 Speaker 1: eighty ten eighty on us talk. 1173 00:54:58,173 --> 00:55:00,172 Speaker 3: ZB it is twenty five pass two. 1174 00:55:00,653 --> 00:55:02,252 Speaker 2: They've got a text here at ninety two nine two. 1175 00:55:02,333 --> 00:55:04,933 Speaker 2: Really teach your kids self discipline. You've got to have 1176 00:55:04,973 --> 00:55:07,493 Speaker 2: self discipline yourself to be a role model to your child. 1177 00:55:07,453 --> 00:55:09,013 Speaker 2: And not all kids want for a our good kids 1178 00:55:09,053 --> 00:55:12,013 Speaker 2: are good adults grow up. That's that's that's a that's 1179 00:55:12,013 --> 00:55:14,533 Speaker 2: a very hopeful way to look at the world. I 1180 00:55:14,573 --> 00:55:17,973 Speaker 2: think a lot of kids will rebel and a lot 1181 00:55:18,013 --> 00:55:20,173 Speaker 2: of kids won't. And no point did I say that 1182 00:55:20,453 --> 00:55:22,253 Speaker 2: the kids that don't rebel. I just said there's a 1183 00:55:22,293 --> 00:55:25,093 Speaker 2: certain amount of kids that will rebel. And of course 1184 00:55:25,173 --> 00:55:28,533 Speaker 2: role models are great and opportunities are great for kids, 1185 00:55:28,573 --> 00:55:30,172 Speaker 2: and we need to offer them as many as they can, 1186 00:55:30,413 --> 00:55:33,693 Speaker 2: but a certain amount of kids will rebel, and vaping 1187 00:55:33,773 --> 00:55:36,053 Speaker 2: is the way they're rebelling. And all I'm saying is 1188 00:55:36,173 --> 00:55:40,533 Speaker 2: vaping is not as bad as smoking in terms of rebel. 1189 00:55:40,613 --> 00:55:42,453 Speaker 2: So let's put that in the band and say, look, 1190 00:55:42,453 --> 00:55:44,732 Speaker 2: we've achieved something good. Kids are drinking less and they're 1191 00:55:44,773 --> 00:55:47,973 Speaker 2: smoking less, and that that is something we can hang 1192 00:55:48,053 --> 00:55:50,813 Speaker 2: a hat on. And as and this text center will 1193 00:55:50,853 --> 00:55:54,053 Speaker 2: grow up. I will never grow up over, I can 1194 00:55:54,093 --> 00:55:56,373 Speaker 2: promise you right now, text, I will never grow up. 1195 00:55:56,853 --> 00:55:58,253 Speaker 3: And how are you this afternoon? 1196 00:55:59,253 --> 00:56:01,453 Speaker 18: I'm really angry with you time oh with me? 1197 00:56:01,693 --> 00:56:02,013 Speaker 3: Okay? 1198 00:56:02,533 --> 00:56:02,773 Speaker 14: With that? 1199 00:56:04,333 --> 00:56:07,813 Speaker 18: Look, news talk is really the place of radio and 1200 00:56:07,893 --> 00:56:11,813 Speaker 18: New zeal And. We hear the ads that the likes 1201 00:56:11,813 --> 00:56:14,773 Speaker 18: of you and Marcus and Mike and we can trust. 1202 00:56:15,253 --> 00:56:19,133 Speaker 18: And I'm really disappointed to hear you is one of 1203 00:56:19,173 --> 00:56:22,733 Speaker 18: these people on z B that we trust say that 1204 00:56:23,373 --> 00:56:27,373 Speaker 18: you are vaping and it's okay, even if you don't 1205 00:56:27,693 --> 00:56:29,133 Speaker 18: like doing it, it's okay. 1206 00:56:29,293 --> 00:56:32,692 Speaker 2: And in this defense, you're actually angry at me. He 1207 00:56:32,693 --> 00:56:35,893 Speaker 2: said it was he vaped and it wasn't okay. Yeah, 1208 00:56:36,053 --> 00:56:37,733 Speaker 2: so you're actually angry at me, not Tyler, So that 1209 00:56:37,813 --> 00:56:39,613 Speaker 2: that's unfairsh. 1210 00:56:39,293 --> 00:56:40,453 Speaker 18: Sorry, I'm angry at Tyler. 1211 00:56:40,653 --> 00:56:42,693 Speaker 2: No, no, you're angry at Matt. You're angry at me. 1212 00:56:43,013 --> 00:56:45,853 Speaker 18: I want to be angry at Tyler anyone. 1213 00:56:45,893 --> 00:56:46,933 Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you to be angry. 1214 00:56:47,093 --> 00:56:49,453 Speaker 3: You can be angry at both of them. 1215 00:56:50,133 --> 00:56:53,373 Speaker 18: I'm angry at anyone that vapes. Well, I mean, honestly, 1216 00:56:54,453 --> 00:56:59,253 Speaker 18: to hear people say vaping is better than smoking is ridiculous. 1217 00:57:00,093 --> 00:57:01,733 Speaker 3: Well, and I just got to jump in here and 1218 00:57:01,733 --> 00:57:04,413 Speaker 3: defend myself. Here is that I see quite clearly that 1219 00:57:04,453 --> 00:57:07,093 Speaker 3: I want to get off the vapes. But for whatever reason, 1220 00:57:07,893 --> 00:57:09,453 Speaker 3: this has been and the only thing that got me 1221 00:57:09,533 --> 00:57:13,413 Speaker 3: off smoking cigarettes. That is why, in my personal situation, 1222 00:57:13,613 --> 00:57:16,173 Speaker 3: I am in favor of using them as a device 1223 00:57:16,253 --> 00:57:18,733 Speaker 3: to get off smoking cigarettes. It has worked for me, 1224 00:57:18,773 --> 00:57:21,853 Speaker 3: and I've tried three different methods to quit nicotine, and 1225 00:57:21,893 --> 00:57:23,693 Speaker 3: a lot of people will come through the text machine, 1226 00:57:23,733 --> 00:57:25,533 Speaker 3: as they have for the last hour and a half, saying, 1227 00:57:25,693 --> 00:57:28,333 Speaker 3: get hard, tier, you know, get some willpower, just quit 1228 00:57:28,413 --> 00:57:31,613 Speaker 3: what's wrong with you? But for whatever reason, I cannot, 1229 00:57:31,973 --> 00:57:34,773 Speaker 3: and I've tried all sorts of things. So for me, 1230 00:57:35,293 --> 00:57:37,813 Speaker 3: vaping has been an effective way to get off the cigarettes, 1231 00:57:37,813 --> 00:57:38,933 Speaker 3: and that's better for my health. 1232 00:57:39,813 --> 00:57:40,013 Speaker 14: YEP. 1233 00:57:40,693 --> 00:57:43,253 Speaker 18: And I accept that, and that's why I went on 1234 00:57:43,413 --> 00:57:47,733 Speaker 18: to vaping after decades of smoking. And I'll tell you what. 1235 00:57:48,413 --> 00:57:52,333 Speaker 18: After vaping, I ended up in the hospital. There is 1236 00:57:52,373 --> 00:57:56,373 Speaker 18: something known as vaping pneumonia, and it's what I got. 1237 00:57:57,013 --> 00:58:01,013 Speaker 18: I heard one of your earlier callers saying, gee, what 1238 00:58:01,333 --> 00:58:06,653 Speaker 18: are the repercussions of sucking in this moisture? Now, not 1239 00:58:06,693 --> 00:58:10,053 Speaker 18: only are you sucking in moisture, you are sucking in 1240 00:58:10,133 --> 00:58:13,773 Speaker 18: the oil from that little vaping machine. And what it 1241 00:58:13,813 --> 00:58:17,453 Speaker 18: does is it sits in the bottom of your lungs 1242 00:58:17,813 --> 00:58:22,253 Speaker 18: and it destroys lung tissue. And people just are not 1243 00:58:22,373 --> 00:58:25,453 Speaker 18: aware of this. People are dying in the United States 1244 00:58:25,653 --> 00:58:29,133 Speaker 18: from vaping too much. So look, I admire you that 1245 00:58:29,173 --> 00:58:35,293 Speaker 18: you're trying to get off cigarettes. But again, you can 1246 00:58:35,493 --> 00:58:40,093 Speaker 18: vape without the nicotine, or you can slowly reduce the 1247 00:58:40,213 --> 00:58:44,373 Speaker 18: nicotine and the vapes. But even if you've got down 1248 00:58:44,413 --> 00:58:48,253 Speaker 18: to vaping with no nicotine in it, you are still 1249 00:58:48,413 --> 00:58:54,373 Speaker 18: sucking in that oil, which is a killer. Now I've 1250 00:58:54,413 --> 00:58:57,933 Speaker 18: now got COPD and that's going to live with me 1251 00:58:58,053 --> 00:59:01,773 Speaker 18: for the rest of my life. I have antibiotics and 1252 00:59:02,093 --> 00:59:05,693 Speaker 18: steroids sitting at home for every time my lungs flare 1253 00:59:05,853 --> 00:59:10,173 Speaker 18: up because of the vaping that I did and the 1254 00:59:10,333 --> 00:59:11,853 Speaker 18: damage it did to my lungs. 1255 00:59:12,013 --> 00:59:14,453 Speaker 2: Okay, well, thank you so much for your call. And interesting, 1256 00:59:14,493 --> 00:59:17,973 Speaker 2: I'd love to see those studies around the effects of 1257 00:59:18,533 --> 00:59:21,733 Speaker 2: vaping over smoking. We did a lot of research, and 1258 00:59:21,773 --> 00:59:25,893 Speaker 2: we couldn't find anything that suggested that vaping was anywhere 1259 00:59:25,893 --> 00:59:29,413 Speaker 2: near as bad as smoking cigarettes. But having said that, 1260 00:59:29,493 --> 00:59:31,973 Speaker 2: I'm not saying that vaping isn't bad. I'm just saying 1261 00:59:32,013 --> 00:59:33,933 Speaker 2: that we live in a world with his trade offs, 1262 00:59:34,013 --> 00:59:37,973 Speaker 2: and vaping is better as far as I can see 1263 00:59:37,973 --> 00:59:41,893 Speaker 2: in research then smoking cigarettes, and that there's a lot 1264 00:59:41,893 --> 00:59:44,733 Speaker 2: of health benefits to nicotine. It's not to suggest that 1265 00:59:44,773 --> 00:59:48,293 Speaker 2: you should you should just be vaping away, but it 1266 00:59:48,293 --> 00:59:49,853 Speaker 2: would be very odd for me if you were just 1267 00:59:49,933 --> 00:59:53,173 Speaker 2: vaping without the nicotine, because then you get in nothing exactly. 1268 00:59:53,333 --> 00:59:55,253 Speaker 3: And how did I call the fury of van I 1269 00:59:55,253 --> 00:59:59,733 Speaker 3: mean it started off that everybody wanted to I tried. 1270 00:59:59,493 --> 01:00:02,853 Speaker 2: To convince her to put her fury on me, but 1271 01:00:03,333 --> 01:00:06,093 Speaker 2: she had her eyes sit on you, and good on her. 1272 01:00:06,373 --> 01:00:08,133 Speaker 2: Good on her for the call. Look, I'll take any 1273 01:00:08,533 --> 01:00:12,453 Speaker 2: that are angry at Tyler absolute Let's bring them through. Hey, 1274 01:00:13,013 --> 01:00:15,613 Speaker 2: but we are moving on from the subject. Now, we 1275 01:00:15,693 --> 01:00:17,773 Speaker 2: certainly are, there's been a good discussion. Just get moving 1276 01:00:17,813 --> 01:00:20,213 Speaker 2: on to the subject, or move myself into witness relocation 1277 01:00:20,613 --> 01:00:24,013 Speaker 2: and we'll move on to a happy subject where people 1278 01:00:24,133 --> 01:00:26,293 Speaker 2: aren't going to be nearly as angry at me. 1279 01:00:26,493 --> 01:00:27,933 Speaker 3: Yeah, well maybe which. 1280 01:00:27,733 --> 01:00:28,693 Speaker 2: Won't be nearly as fun for me. 1281 01:00:29,173 --> 01:00:31,973 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's coming up very shortly. It is twenty nine 1282 01:00:32,013 --> 01:00:32,653 Speaker 3: to three. 1283 01:00:35,613 --> 01:00:38,813 Speaker 1: You talks, it'd be headlines with blue bubble taxis. 1284 01:00:38,893 --> 01:00:41,973 Speaker 16: It's no trouble with a blue bubble. Health New Zealand 1285 01:00:41,973 --> 01:00:45,933 Speaker 16: has told staff it's proposing to disestablish roles, with one 1286 01:00:45,973 --> 01:00:49,133 Speaker 16: on one meetings to be set up.

Then, while GP practice owners say thus 1289 01:00:57,893 --> 01:01:01,173 Speaker 16: still waiting for a new funding model a year after 1290 01:01:01,213 --> 01:01:05,093 Speaker 16: the government formed with all its parties supporting change pre election, 1291 01:01:05,613 --> 01:01:07,973 Speaker 16: Minister Shane that it Is says he anticipates seeing a 1292 01:01:08,013 --> 01:01:12,173 Speaker 16: review this year.

There's something I just want to mention 1307 01:02:02,653 --> 01:02:05,973 Speaker 2: before and to you too, Tyler. Yeah, in terms of addiction, 1308 01:02:06,093 --> 01:02:11,893 Speaker 2: because you're horribly addicted to Veymac. Shocking, shocking. There's this 1309 01:02:12,053 --> 01:02:14,093 Speaker 2: I always bring this up because it's the best thing 1310 01:02:14,133 --> 01:02:17,493 Speaker 2: I've ever read on addiction, and it is a man 1311 01:02:17,533 --> 01:02:20,573 Speaker 2: that's been incredibly successful getting people off smoking cocaine everything. 1312 01:02:20,613 --> 01:02:22,613 Speaker 2: His name is doctor Judson Brewer. Put it up for 1313 01:02:22,613 --> 01:02:24,173 Speaker 2: a few people are texting. The name of the book 1314 01:02:24,293 --> 01:02:27,613 Speaker 2: is The Craving Mind by doctor Judson Brewer, and it 1315 01:02:27,693 --> 01:02:29,693 Speaker 2: is just a look into why we have habits and 1316 01:02:29,693 --> 01:02:33,293 Speaker 2: how we can fight them. And he argues that there's 1317 01:02:33,293 --> 01:02:35,853 Speaker 2: not much difference between any of our addictions. They're kind 1318 01:02:35,853 --> 01:02:37,853 Speaker 2: of the same things being repeated over and over again 1319 01:02:37,893 --> 01:02:43,773 Speaker 2: with it's vaping or digital addiction, smoking cocaine, whatever it is, 1320 01:02:43,893 --> 01:02:46,053 Speaker 2: other addictions in our life. We all have them, even 1321 01:02:46,373 --> 01:02:49,213 Speaker 2: our eating addictions as well social media. So I thoroughly 1322 01:02:49,253 --> 01:02:52,253 Speaker 2: recommend that to people if you're strugging with addiction. The 1323 01:02:52,293 --> 01:02:55,573 Speaker 2: book is called The Craving Mind by doctor Judson Brewer. 1324 01:02:55,653 --> 01:02:58,733 Speaker 3: All right, that's my weekend, that's my reading this weekend. 1325 01:02:58,733 --> 01:03:00,853 Speaker 2: I should say you could argue that love can be 1326 01:03:00,893 --> 01:03:03,933 Speaker 2: an addiction, certainly can be. That's not what we're arguing. 1327 01:03:04,013 --> 01:03:06,333 Speaker 2: We're moving on to what This is a story that 1328 01:03:06,373 --> 01:03:07,853 Speaker 2: you found today that excited you. 1329 01:03:07,893 --> 01:03:09,653 Speaker 3: Well, it's a great story in the Herald and its 1330 01:03:09,693 --> 01:03:12,373 Speaker 3: in depth and well worth a read. The headline is 1331 01:03:12,413 --> 01:03:16,253 Speaker 3: divorce trap. What kiwis get wrong about long term love? 1332 01:03:17,093 --> 01:03:19,933 Speaker 3: So it is what many of us are seeking, of course, 1333 01:03:19,933 --> 01:03:22,213 Speaker 3: but New Zealanders have a lot to learn about what 1334 01:03:22,253 --> 01:03:26,693 Speaker 3: builds a successful long term relationship. According to psychologist Nick Beats, 1335 01:03:26,973 --> 01:03:29,853 Speaker 3: he has had a thirty year career and worked with 1336 01:03:29,973 --> 01:03:32,773 Speaker 3: hundreds of Kiwi couples. Most have been together for years, 1337 01:03:32,773 --> 01:03:35,653 Speaker 3: and most have come to the painful realization that the 1338 01:03:35,693 --> 01:03:38,573 Speaker 3: relationship that they've built their life around has developed some 1339 01:03:38,773 --> 01:03:43,413 Speaker 3: serious structural defects. As he says, speed wobble. There's some 1340 01:03:43,453 --> 01:03:46,893 Speaker 3: speed wobbles. So here's the quote. We've been bombarded by 1341 01:03:47,013 --> 01:03:50,573 Speaker 3: the romantic mythos that if you just pick the right person, 1342 01:03:50,693 --> 01:03:53,453 Speaker 3: it will be easy. He goes on to say, it 1343 01:03:53,453 --> 01:03:56,853 Speaker 3: doesn't work that way. Marriage is a people growing machine. 1344 01:03:56,893 --> 01:03:59,573 Speaker 3: You invest all this time and energy in a relationship. 1345 01:03:59,693 --> 01:04:02,293 Speaker 3: You buy property together, you have children together, you have 1346 01:04:02,333 --> 01:04:06,773 Speaker 3: friends in common, and inevitably your personal limitations are going 1347 01:04:06,813 --> 01:04:10,373 Speaker 3: to threaten that relationship. Hence why we want to talk 1348 01:04:10,413 --> 01:04:15,693 Speaker 3: about what is it for you that makes your relationship 1349 01:04:15,773 --> 01:04:19,293 Speaker 3: so strong? What has been the tips in your your 1350 01:04:19,293 --> 01:04:22,253 Speaker 3: own mythos to building long term relationships? 1351 01:04:22,333 --> 01:04:24,453 Speaker 2: Yeah, and what mistakes have you made that you've learned 1352 01:04:24,453 --> 01:04:28,413 Speaker 2: from one hundred and eighty ten eighty, Because, as I 1353 01:04:28,453 --> 01:04:31,053 Speaker 2: was saying before, in relationships, so often you see people go 1354 01:04:31,093 --> 01:04:33,013 Speaker 2: from one relationship to another, and they go into the 1355 01:04:33,053 --> 01:04:35,093 Speaker 2: new relationship and they see the same mistakes happening, and 1356 01:04:35,133 --> 01:04:38,173 Speaker 2: then you realize, Ah, it was me. Yeah, it was 1357 01:04:38,213 --> 01:04:41,253 Speaker 2: me all along. I've got a theory on relationships and 1358 01:04:41,773 --> 01:04:46,013 Speaker 2: why they don't succeed, and I'll talk about that in 1359 01:04:46,053 --> 01:04:48,253 Speaker 2: a bit. I won't just throw that out there now, Okay, 1360 01:04:49,773 --> 01:04:51,453 Speaker 2: one hundred eighteen eighty. If you've had if you've got 1361 01:04:51,493 --> 01:04:54,213 Speaker 2: a relationship that works, why does it work? And what 1362 01:04:54,253 --> 01:04:56,773 Speaker 2: are your tips for making a relationship works? And if 1363 01:04:56,813 --> 01:04:59,333 Speaker 2: it hasn't worked, why I love to hear from you 1364 01:04:59,453 --> 01:05:02,973 Speaker 2: because I believe that in life it goes better if 1365 01:05:03,093 --> 01:05:05,773 Speaker 2: in twos. I think being in a relationship and a 1366 01:05:05,773 --> 01:05:10,013 Speaker 2: partnership against this world. The world is quite a punishing place, 1367 01:05:10,653 --> 01:05:16,053 Speaker 2: and it's not for everyone. For me, it's much easier 1368 01:05:16,573 --> 01:05:19,413 Speaker 2: in a partnership than it is on my own. And 1369 01:05:20,773 --> 01:05:23,333 Speaker 2: so if you can get that going, and loneliness is 1370 01:05:23,373 --> 01:05:26,093 Speaker 2: a terrible thing. And look, not everyone can find these 1371 01:05:26,093 --> 01:05:28,453 Speaker 2: relationships with some people that will work better in a partnership, 1372 01:05:28,493 --> 01:05:31,853 Speaker 2: but haven't managed to get that going. But things go better, 1373 01:05:31,933 --> 01:05:34,933 Speaker 2: in my opinion and in my experience, as a partnership 1374 01:05:34,933 --> 01:05:37,413 Speaker 2: againt you and someone else against the world, and you 1375 01:05:37,493 --> 01:05:39,053 Speaker 2: and your friends against the world, you and your family 1376 01:05:39,093 --> 01:05:40,693 Speaker 2: against the world. The more people you can have on 1377 01:05:40,733 --> 01:05:44,493 Speaker 2: your side, the better, but that there's something about the 1378 01:05:44,533 --> 01:05:47,173 Speaker 2: two of you going up against things. Even if it's 1379 01:05:47,293 --> 01:05:50,133 Speaker 2: just the admin of life, there's a lot to say 1380 01:05:50,173 --> 01:05:52,533 Speaker 2: for it. So it's worth finding out how you can 1381 01:05:52,533 --> 01:05:53,173 Speaker 2: make that work. 1382 01:05:54,133 --> 01:05:56,253 Speaker 3: And I'm no expert in this by any means, but 1383 01:05:56,373 --> 01:05:58,413 Speaker 3: the one thing that I've found with my partner made 1384 01:05:58,453 --> 01:06:00,653 Speaker 3: and generally it's a cliche, but she is my best friend. 1385 01:06:00,893 --> 01:06:03,413 Speaker 3: I absolutely mean that. But the one thing, if I 1386 01:06:03,453 --> 01:06:06,213 Speaker 3: have to sort of distill it down, is she makes 1387 01:06:06,253 --> 01:06:08,933 Speaker 3: my life easy and hopefully I make her life easy. 1388 01:06:09,013 --> 01:06:15,013 Speaker 3: So when I come home, very passionate, but that is 1389 01:06:15,013 --> 01:06:16,773 Speaker 3: it to me. You know, I walk through the door 1390 01:06:16,933 --> 01:06:20,773 Speaker 3: and I know that I'm going to see Mabe's beautiful 1391 01:06:20,773 --> 01:06:22,813 Speaker 3: face and life is going to be easier. So I 1392 01:06:22,933 --> 01:06:26,253 Speaker 3: walk through that door whatever issues that I'm facing out 1393 01:06:26,813 --> 01:06:28,293 Speaker 3: in the real world, and then I walk through that 1394 01:06:28,333 --> 01:06:30,093 Speaker 3: door and say, life's going to get easy. 1395 01:06:30,333 --> 01:06:33,493 Speaker 2: It's always like that, No, not always, not always. 1396 01:06:33,933 --> 01:06:35,893 Speaker 3: Say ninety nine percent, which is a pretty good ratio. 1397 01:06:36,453 --> 01:06:39,053 Speaker 3: Maybe ninety, maybe ninety. Let's not get too crazy here. 1398 01:06:39,293 --> 01:06:40,093 Speaker 2: Ninety is pretty good. 1399 01:06:40,173 --> 01:06:41,653 Speaker 3: May he might disagree. 1400 01:06:41,813 --> 01:06:43,813 Speaker 2: Ninety is pretty good. We should listen to Tyler for 1401 01:06:43,853 --> 01:06:46,653 Speaker 2: relationship advice. So he's getting ninety percent of the time. 1402 01:06:46,693 --> 01:06:50,253 Speaker 2: He walks through his door when he gets home and 1403 01:06:50,893 --> 01:06:53,173 Speaker 2: his partner is very happy with him, and everything's good, 1404 01:06:53,213 --> 01:06:54,933 Speaker 2: and she makes a little bit of place and then 1405 01:06:54,933 --> 01:06:56,293 Speaker 2: it sounds like you've cracked the code. Buddy. 1406 01:06:56,653 --> 01:06:58,333 Speaker 3: Maybe we need to get her on the phone. I 1407 01:06:58,373 --> 01:06:59,093 Speaker 3: think I think. 1408 01:06:58,973 --> 01:07:02,333 Speaker 2: Relationships can probably get by it. Sixty five percent, sixty 1409 01:07:02,333 --> 01:07:03,853 Speaker 2: percent good when you come. 1410 01:07:03,893 --> 01:07:05,653 Speaker 3: A dog helps as well. I've got to say a 1411 01:07:05,733 --> 01:07:08,893 Speaker 3: dog absolutely helps. But I went a hundred eight ten 1412 01:07:08,973 --> 01:07:10,893 Speaker 3: eighty is the number to call love to hear from 1413 01:07:10,893 --> 01:07:12,253 Speaker 3: you on this one?

You still want to be a pillar 1426 01:07:46,173 --> 01:07:49,773 Speaker 2: of strength and someone that they can depend on. Yeah, 1427 01:07:49,813 --> 01:07:52,693 Speaker 2: and also an agent of chaos to a certain extent. 1428 01:07:52,853 --> 01:07:56,013 Speaker 3: Yeah, keep it spicy.

And that had, you know, 1471 01:10:30,412 --> 01:10:32,013 Speaker 3: a bit of an impact on me on how I 1472 01:10:32,053 --> 01:10:36,532 Speaker 3: look at relationships and what I think is important in 1473 01:10:36,612 --> 01:10:38,652 Speaker 3: a partner.

And that's not 1477 01:10:45,372 --> 01:10:47,253 Speaker 3: quite as articulate as I want to be, but that's 1478 01:10:47,293 --> 01:10:49,053 Speaker 3: the only way I think I can say it is 1479 01:10:49,093 --> 01:10:51,772 Speaker 3: that when I walk through that door, mav is there, 1480 01:10:51,893 --> 01:10:59,093 Speaker 3: my life is easy.

But 1489 01:11:26,772 --> 01:11:30,013 Speaker 6: but but I think the differences is that when you 1490 01:11:30,093 --> 01:11:33,093 Speaker 6: find there the right tight and that you something about 1491 01:11:33,133 --> 01:11:38,093 Speaker 6: a commitment, and it's you know, like my my my 1492 01:11:38,253 --> 01:11:43,612 Speaker 6: tent is my sort of will and and and the 1493 01:11:43,612 --> 01:11:47,253 Speaker 6: commitment does basically look, you know, I'm never gonna I'm 1494 01:11:47,293 --> 01:11:51,133 Speaker 6: never gonna hurt it, I'm never gonna let it down. 1495 01:11:51,692 --> 01:11:55,012 Speaker 6: And what happens is that the longer the relationship goes on, 1496 01:11:55,853 --> 01:11:59,412 Speaker 6: that actually strengthens. You're sort of partnership in years old 1497 01:11:59,452 --> 01:12:03,173 Speaker 6: and you're you're actually taking pride in your relationship together. 1498 01:12:04,253 --> 01:12:07,372 Speaker 6: So so I think that's the biggest thing is you know, 1499 01:12:07,772 --> 01:12:11,412 Speaker 6: the commitment to each other and then and that just 1500 01:12:11,452 --> 01:12:13,652 Speaker 6: builds more and more as time goes on, and you 1501 01:12:13,652 --> 01:12:14,892 Speaker 6: can actually take pride in that. 1502 01:12:15,412 --> 01:12:15,812 Speaker 19: Yeah. 1503 01:12:16,812 --> 01:12:21,852 Speaker 2: Yeah, You've you've built something together as what you're saying 1504 01:12:22,692 --> 01:12:23,892 Speaker 2: something with well yeah. 1505 01:12:23,732 --> 01:12:26,053 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, And it's just a commitment that you know, 1506 01:12:26,253 --> 01:12:30,932 Speaker 6: it's never gonna have a you know, pull commitment, and 1507 01:12:31,053 --> 01:12:33,412 Speaker 6: the other person knows that. Yeah, and you know, like 1508 01:12:33,452 --> 01:12:35,532 Speaker 6: you said, like someone else mentioned in the comment, you 1509 01:12:35,612 --> 01:12:39,293 Speaker 6: have durious if that's reciprocated, then it's the best thing either. 1510 01:12:41,053 --> 01:12:42,173 Speaker 18: Yeah. 1511 01:12:41,933 --> 01:12:45,213 Speaker 6: Yeah, And that's where you probably hear these people that 1512 01:12:45,412 --> 01:12:47,372 Speaker 6: you know, you get the old couples that have been 1513 01:12:47,372 --> 01:12:49,973 Speaker 6: married sixty seventy years or something like that, you know, 1514 01:12:50,053 --> 01:12:53,052 Speaker 6: and sure they might not have had every every smooth 1515 01:12:53,133 --> 01:12:55,892 Speaker 6: sailing the whole time, but at the end of the day, 1516 01:12:56,933 --> 01:12:59,692 Speaker 6: it's that commitment that will get you over you know, 1517 01:12:59,692 --> 01:13:02,492 Speaker 6: a little rough patches or something like that, because you know, 1518 01:13:02,812 --> 01:13:06,173 Speaker 6: it's a it's a no, it's non negotiable. Like you know, 1519 01:13:06,253 --> 01:13:08,093 Speaker 6: you might you might have an argument, you might have 1520 01:13:08,133 --> 01:13:12,093 Speaker 6: about something or other, but the non negotiable part of that, 1521 01:13:12,093 --> 01:13:14,612 Speaker 6: you're you're you're committed, you know. 1522 01:13:15,093 --> 01:13:19,293 Speaker 2: Forevor basically, Brian, I'm gonna question you. You said that your 1523 01:13:19,412 --> 01:13:22,053 Speaker 2: partner is your world, but do you do you have 1524 01:13:22,812 --> 01:13:25,612 Speaker 2: a you know, family and good friends groups? Do you 1525 01:13:25,612 --> 01:13:27,573 Speaker 2: both have friends outside of the relationship. 1526 01:13:29,532 --> 01:13:34,333 Speaker 6: To be fair, not really minimal, but that's that's that's 1527 01:13:34,372 --> 01:13:38,852 Speaker 6: nothing unusual, you know, not neither of us be social people. 1528 01:13:40,652 --> 01:13:44,532 Speaker 6: So you know, I like, I say, that's you. You've 1529 01:13:44,532 --> 01:13:47,772 Speaker 6: probably got a point there that uh, you know, we're 1530 01:13:48,133 --> 01:13:54,972 Speaker 6: largely do everything, you know, mm hmmm, we've lost Brian. 1531 01:13:55,053 --> 01:13:59,572 Speaker 6: There were not groups. 1532 01:13:58,173 --> 01:14:01,013 Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you so much. If you called Brian, you're 1533 01:14:01,013 --> 01:14:03,013 Speaker 2: just breaking up there a little bit. Yeah, that that 1534 01:14:03,173 --> 01:14:05,852 Speaker 2: kind of because that's one of my theories and that's 1535 01:14:05,933 --> 01:14:08,012 Speaker 2: not how true By Brian. But one of my theories 1536 01:14:08,053 --> 01:14:13,772 Speaker 2: is really strong relationships are when both partners have strong 1537 01:14:13,812 --> 01:14:16,972 Speaker 2: families and strong friend groups that they can unleash some 1538 01:14:17,093 --> 01:14:20,852 Speaker 2: of their emotional baggage on or you know, spend some 1539 01:14:20,933 --> 01:14:23,293 Speaker 2: time with and come back into the relationship with things. 1540 01:14:23,933 --> 01:14:27,612 Speaker 2: Because especially it's I think it's particularly bad if one 1541 01:14:27,612 --> 01:14:30,452 Speaker 2: person has a large friend group and the other person doesn't, definitely, 1542 01:14:30,532 --> 01:14:32,812 Speaker 2: and then that person just gets completely brought into the 1543 01:14:32,853 --> 01:14:34,973 Speaker 2: new friend group. Then I think that can be problematic. 1544 01:14:34,973 --> 01:14:37,213 Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's great if people can keep 1545 01:14:37,293 --> 01:14:39,372 Speaker 2: their friends and do their own things as well. 1546 01:14:39,612 --> 01:14:40,772 Speaker 3: I agree, I think. 1547 01:14:40,893 --> 01:14:43,492 Speaker 2: I mean it's not an absolute and clearly Brian saying 1548 01:14:43,492 --> 01:14:45,892 Speaker 2: that that's not necessary in his relationship, but it always 1549 01:14:45,893 --> 01:14:49,132 Speaker 2: seems the ones the relationships I see like that seem 1550 01:14:49,492 --> 01:14:51,492 Speaker 2: to go pretty well often. 1551 01:14:51,692 --> 01:14:54,572 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it works for us that I actually 1552 01:14:54,572 --> 01:14:58,852 Speaker 3: agree that if you do everything together, and some couples 1553 01:14:58,853 --> 01:15:00,572 Speaker 3: can do that, and I take my head off to them, 1554 01:15:00,893 --> 01:15:04,132 Speaker 3: But having that ability to go and do a weekend 1555 01:15:04,173 --> 01:15:06,293 Speaker 3: away with with the lads, or a week in away 1556 01:15:06,372 --> 01:15:09,173 Speaker 3: with the girls, or have those separate groups, to some 1557 01:15:09,492 --> 01:15:13,052 Speaker 3: you know, to some extent, I think is incredibly healthy. 1558 01:15:13,333 --> 01:15:15,972 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I was just waiting for the text machine 1559 01:15:15,973 --> 01:15:18,053 Speaker 2: to fire up because you said, everythink. 1560 01:15:19,612 --> 01:15:22,452 Speaker 3: Everywhere are gonna come. They are going to come on ZB. 1561 01:15:22,652 --> 01:15:28,333 Speaker 2: Everything everything, every piece of pronunciation or misusage of a 1562 01:15:28,372 --> 01:15:30,972 Speaker 2: world word, we appreciate. I just could world instead of words, 1563 01:15:30,973 --> 01:15:33,652 Speaker 2: so we'll get that one. But we're appreciate keeping us honest. Yeah, 1564 01:15:33,692 --> 01:15:36,372 Speaker 2: but I quite like everythink everything. 1565 01:15:36,732 --> 01:15:39,532 Speaker 3: I don't encourage them. Here they come, Here they come. 1566 01:15:39,732 --> 01:15:40,213 Speaker 2: It's cute. 1567 01:15:40,293 --> 01:15:42,333 Speaker 3: Yeah. Oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty. Love to 1568 01:15:42,372 --> 01:15:45,173 Speaker 3: hear your thoughts on what it takes to make a 1569 01:15:45,213 --> 01:15:50,372 Speaker 3: great relationship. Last it is nine to three. 1570 01:15:49,772 --> 01:15:52,213 Speaker 1: The issues that affect you and a bit of fun 1571 01:15:52,253 --> 01:15:55,692 Speaker 1: along the way. Matt Heath and Taylor Adams Afternoons you 1572 01:15:55,853 --> 01:15:59,452 Speaker 1: for twenty twenty four you talk ZB News. 1573 01:15:59,173 --> 01:16:01,973 Speaker 3: Talks B it is six to three, and we've been 1574 01:16:02,133 --> 01:16:05,213 Speaker 3: talking about what it takes to maintain a healthy relationship 1575 01:16:05,253 --> 01:16:05,892 Speaker 3: long term. 1576 01:16:06,013 --> 01:16:09,892 Speaker 2: Hey, and look, as a person that is necessarily maintained 1577 01:16:09,893 --> 01:16:13,612 Speaker 2: relationships for I've it's pretty much been in a monogamous 1578 01:16:13,652 --> 01:16:16,732 Speaker 2: relationships for most of my adult life. Actually, our first 1579 01:16:16,772 --> 01:16:18,772 Speaker 2: girlfriend was when I was fourteen till I was twenty one. 1580 01:16:18,812 --> 01:16:21,772 Speaker 2: So you were doing well, Yeah, yeah, but I was 1581 01:16:21,772 --> 01:16:23,372 Speaker 2: thinking about this thing I was going to share before, 1582 01:16:23,412 --> 01:16:26,772 Speaker 2: and we'll keep this topic going on after after three o'clock. 1583 01:16:26,812 --> 01:16:28,933 Speaker 2: So one hundred and eighteen eighty. If you're in a 1584 01:16:28,973 --> 01:16:31,253 Speaker 2: successful relationship, how does it work? If you're not, why 1585 01:16:31,293 --> 01:16:34,052 Speaker 2: didn't it work? This is all based on this Herald article. 1586 01:16:34,412 --> 01:16:37,133 Speaker 2: But I read this really interesting book by this Australian 1587 01:16:37,213 --> 01:16:41,012 Speaker 2: professor of philosophy called Robert E. Good Good and called Settling, 1588 01:16:41,412 --> 01:16:43,492 Speaker 2: and he believes to have a fulfilliingeration that we must 1589 01:16:43,492 --> 01:16:45,572 Speaker 2: settle for a period of time and an imperfect person. 1590 01:16:45,853 --> 01:16:49,013 Speaker 2: It's also been written about by Oliver Berkman, another philosopher 1591 01:16:49,013 --> 01:16:51,772 Speaker 2: in England, and Alan de Bouton. But the thing is, 1592 01:16:52,253 --> 01:16:54,732 Speaker 2: we have this idea of the perfect person we're trying 1593 01:16:54,732 --> 01:16:55,812 Speaker 2: to get, and this is what this article on the 1594 01:16:55,853 --> 01:16:59,532 Speaker 2: hero's trying to say. And we often break up with 1595 01:16:59,532 --> 01:17:03,372 Speaker 2: people for just the crime of not being perfect because 1596 01:17:03,372 --> 01:17:06,253 Speaker 2: we can imagine everything. We can imagine the fantasy person. 1597 01:17:06,253 --> 01:17:09,173 Speaker 2: We want someone that's exciting but also stable. We want 1598 01:17:09,372 --> 01:17:11,572 Speaker 2: someone to be our best friend and the object of 1599 01:17:11,572 --> 01:17:16,133 Speaker 2: our affections. We want someone comforting, you know, and someone 1600 01:17:16,133 --> 01:17:19,173 Speaker 2: that will rip it up with us. And so often 1601 01:17:19,173 --> 01:17:21,772 Speaker 2: we have partners that have to compete with everything we 1602 01:17:21,772 --> 01:17:25,972 Speaker 2: can imagine, and that's impossible for someone to do. So 1603 01:17:26,173 --> 01:17:28,053 Speaker 2: I just believe you need to find someone that you 1604 01:17:28,133 --> 01:17:30,852 Speaker 2: love and like and then just put the work into 1605 01:17:30,933 --> 01:17:33,932 Speaker 2: that and build on that, and just stop comparing them 1606 01:17:33,933 --> 01:17:36,253 Speaker 2: with every other possibility that's out there in the world, 1607 01:17:36,293 --> 01:17:38,652 Speaker 2: because no one can compete with that. And then people 1608 01:17:38,692 --> 01:17:41,492 Speaker 2: break up relationships because someone's not perfect because they've watched 1609 01:17:41,492 --> 01:17:43,972 Speaker 2: too many rom coms, or they've decided that Instagram pots 1610 01:17:43,973 --> 01:17:45,852 Speaker 2: where you should be following your dreams and everyone should 1611 01:17:45,853 --> 01:17:48,213 Speaker 2: be incredible, and then you can just end up being 1612 01:17:48,412 --> 01:17:50,213 Speaker 2: alone for ten years when you look for this person 1613 01:17:50,253 --> 01:17:52,253 Speaker 2: that doesn't exist. It's a crazy thing to do. You 1614 01:17:52,372 --> 01:17:55,412 Speaker 2: just got to give up the fantasy and get over 1615 01:17:55,452 --> 01:18:00,053 Speaker 2: yourself and just be with someone and work on the 1616 01:18:00,093 --> 01:18:02,253 Speaker 2: relationship you've got. I mean, if it's a toxic and 1617 01:18:02,253 --> 01:18:04,772 Speaker 2: horrible relationship, obviously you've got to get out. Yeah, I mean, 1618 01:18:05,412 --> 01:18:09,293 Speaker 2: but barring that, you've got to realize that your partner 1619 01:18:09,412 --> 01:18:11,053 Speaker 2: is your partner. They're not. They don't have to be 1620 01:18:11,053 --> 01:18:12,572 Speaker 2: your best friend, they don't have to be the funniest 1621 01:18:12,612 --> 01:18:14,852 Speaker 2: person in the world. You can have your best mate 1622 01:18:14,893 --> 01:18:16,892 Speaker 2: can be the funniest person in the world, you know, 1623 01:18:17,013 --> 01:18:20,053 Speaker 2: and another friend can be the most exciting person in 1624 01:18:20,053 --> 01:18:21,692 Speaker 2: the world. But your partner doesn't have to be everything. 1625 01:18:21,692 --> 01:18:21,933 Speaker 4: You know. 1626 01:18:22,412 --> 01:18:24,532 Speaker 3: And I think once I came to the realization that, 1627 01:18:24,652 --> 01:18:26,772 Speaker 3: believe it or not, I'm not a perfect person. You know. 1628 01:18:26,492 --> 01:18:29,333 Speaker 3: I know you may think I am. But when I 1629 01:18:29,452 --> 01:18:31,372 Speaker 3: was very happy to make a lot of sacrifices and 1630 01:18:31,452 --> 01:18:34,092 Speaker 3: Mave would make sacrifices as well about you know, behavior 1631 01:18:34,133 --> 01:18:36,732 Speaker 3: in that relationship. At that point I thought, Yep, I've 1632 01:18:36,772 --> 01:18:39,732 Speaker 3: found there. But keen on your thoughts. 1633 01:18:39,853 --> 01:18:40,932 Speaker 2: I think you're a real catch. 1634 01:18:40,973 --> 01:18:44,532 Speaker 3: Tiler you mate you two oh eight hundred eighty ten 1635 01:18:44,612 --> 01:18:46,692 Speaker 3: eighty is the number to call.

But my either twenty 1969 01:34:24,772 --> 01:34:27,053 Speaker 21: seven year old son to a different woman than my 1970 01:34:27,253 --> 01:34:30,732 Speaker 21: current partner, and I have two children to my current partner. 1971 01:34:31,253 --> 01:34:35,133 Speaker 21: My ex partner is the god godmother of my two 1972 01:34:35,253 --> 01:34:40,532 Speaker 21: children with my new one, and I look, it takes 1973 01:34:40,532 --> 01:34:44,572 Speaker 21: out all that I guess arguing over visitation rights and 1974 01:34:44,652 --> 01:34:47,612 Speaker 21: all of that sort of things. It's just we are 1975 01:34:47,652 --> 01:34:52,333 Speaker 21: still a family unit, but just different. I guess what's 1976 01:34:52,412 --> 01:34:57,692 Speaker 21: the normous And it is a reflection of Hair. Myself 1977 01:34:57,692 --> 01:35:01,213 Speaker 21: and my ex ended that furse relationship, and it was 1978 01:35:01,293 --> 01:35:04,213 Speaker 21: with the same love and respect that we ended it with. 1979 01:35:04,412 --> 01:35:07,972 Speaker 21: We worked there very quickly that whilst we love each other, 1980 01:35:08,412 --> 01:35:10,732 Speaker 21: it's the worst thing for the world was for us 1981 01:35:10,772 --> 01:35:15,053 Speaker 21: to be a couple. And I think if you acknowledge 1982 01:35:15,133 --> 01:35:18,333 Speaker 21: that to yourself and you're honest with the person who 1983 01:35:18,372 --> 01:35:22,572 Speaker 21: are techning with then you can exitent with with respect 1984 01:35:22,612 --> 01:35:25,412 Speaker 21: and love. You know, have to go and cheat and 1985 01:35:25,412 --> 01:35:30,012 Speaker 21: find someone else as your method of breaking up with someone. 1986 01:35:30,093 --> 01:35:36,012 Speaker 21: I just I've never understood cheating. I just I just don't. 1987 01:35:36,133 --> 01:35:39,892 Speaker 21: If you love someone, you're just how can you do 1988 01:35:39,933 --> 01:35:43,892 Speaker 21: that to them? And if you've fallen for someone else, 1989 01:35:44,253 --> 01:35:46,213 Speaker 21: you've got to front up and be honest about at 1990 01:35:46,293 --> 01:35:46,972 Speaker 21: early doors. 1991 01:35:48,253 --> 01:35:48,812 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I. 1992 01:35:50,452 --> 01:35:51,652 Speaker 21: Just knew we shouldn't be together. 1993 01:35:51,973 --> 01:35:53,933 Speaker 2: There's a lot of you know, talking about relationships, but 1994 01:35:54,213 --> 01:35:55,772 Speaker 2: a lot of people don't really know how to end 1995 01:35:55,812 --> 01:35:59,013 Speaker 2: relationships when they have to, or behave when a relationship 1996 01:35:59,013 --> 01:36:03,133 Speaker 2: has been end ended on them and asking someone about 1997 01:36:03,133 --> 01:36:06,093 Speaker 2: this the other day. And the most important thing that 1998 01:36:06,133 --> 01:36:09,732 Speaker 2: you've got to do, I believe when a relationship ends 1999 01:36:09,853 --> 01:36:13,372 Speaker 2: is keep your dignity. Yeah, you got hold onto your dignity. 2000 01:36:13,973 --> 01:36:19,293 Speaker 2: And that involves not being an idiot, not yelling, screaming, 2001 01:36:19,452 --> 01:36:22,333 Speaker 2: not over texting, not hang out in front of workplaces, 2002 01:36:22,372 --> 01:36:24,293 Speaker 2: the whole bunch of things that people can do. And 2003 01:36:24,333 --> 01:36:26,213 Speaker 2: so then they've not only lost their partner, but they've 2004 01:36:26,213 --> 01:36:28,972 Speaker 2: lost their dignity. So if anyone's going through a breakup, 2005 01:36:29,013 --> 01:36:30,732 Speaker 2: I think that's the thing they've got to always just 2006 01:36:30,853 --> 01:36:33,772 Speaker 2: hold on to remember, keep your dignity, Keep your dignity, 2007 01:36:33,812 --> 01:36:36,093 Speaker 2: it's all you've got. You behave in a way that 2008 01:36:36,133 --> 01:36:38,173 Speaker 2: you can feel proud of yourself once you've gotten over 2009 01:36:38,173 --> 01:36:40,692 Speaker 2: this person, because if you look back and you've not 2010 01:36:40,772 --> 01:36:43,612 Speaker 2: only lost someone, but you've made an absolute fool of yourself, 2011 01:36:44,173 --> 01:36:47,052 Speaker 2: then you not only hate them, you hate yourself as well. 2012 01:36:47,253 --> 01:36:52,213 Speaker 3: Exactly just on that and my long term partner before mate, 2013 01:36:52,333 --> 01:36:55,613 Speaker 3: we were together about six years and the way that 2014 01:36:55,612 --> 01:36:59,412 Speaker 3: that ended. I wasn't that happy to lose dignity. No, 2015 01:36:59,492 --> 01:37:01,812 Speaker 3: I didn't lose my dignity, but my partner. I'm not 2016 01:37:01,812 --> 01:37:05,572 Speaker 3: going to mention her name. She was very upset with me, 2017 01:37:05,853 --> 01:37:08,093 Speaker 3: and I thought the best approach there was that you 2018 01:37:08,133 --> 01:37:11,452 Speaker 3: ever to be ah yeah, yeah, looking back, we were 2019 01:37:11,492 --> 01:37:15,333 Speaker 3: not compatible, were definitely not compatible. But I thought the 2020 01:37:15,372 --> 01:37:18,772 Speaker 3: best approach was a clean cut, that I stop all 2021 01:37:18,772 --> 01:37:21,412 Speaker 3: communication and have that clean cut. I look back now 2022 01:37:21,452 --> 01:37:24,492 Speaker 3: and I regret that because now we're not on speaking terms. 2023 01:37:24,492 --> 01:37:26,932 Speaker 3: We may you know, I saw her about three years 2024 01:37:26,933 --> 01:37:29,133 Speaker 3: ago and we were okay chatting to each other, but 2025 01:37:30,213 --> 01:37:33,452 Speaker 3: part of me deeply regrets that that I should have 2026 01:37:34,293 --> 01:37:36,733 Speaker 3: done that in a better way. Has kept those communications 2027 01:37:36,812 --> 01:37:38,852 Speaker 3: lines open. If she was angry at me, let her 2028 01:37:38,893 --> 01:37:42,492 Speaker 3: be angry and with you know the once time goes on. 2029 01:37:42,572 --> 01:37:45,173 Speaker 3: That we could have remained some sort of friendship there, 2030 01:37:45,173 --> 01:37:48,133 Speaker 3: but we are. We're not friends anymore, and part of 2031 01:37:48,133 --> 01:37:49,093 Speaker 3: me I'm good at about that. 2032 01:37:49,333 --> 01:37:52,972 Speaker 2: You Heartbreakerson says, Hey, Matt and Tyl left.
