Just had to do 13 00:01:08,893 --> 00:01:10,853 Speaker 3: the thing where slammed on the brakes, went too wide 14 00:01:10,893 --> 00:01:14,213 Speaker 3: through the corner, meant that he ended up coming fourteenth 15 00:01:14,293 --> 00:01:16,373 Speaker 3: I think in sprint qualifying. So he made it through 16 00:01:16,373 --> 00:01:19,293 Speaker 3: the second round of sprint qualifying, ah, but won't be 17 00:01:19,333 --> 00:01:22,573 Speaker 3: progressing any further for the sprint race in Miami this weekend. 18 00:01:22,573 --> 00:01:23,853 Speaker 3: So a bit of a shame there.

There were extraordinary scenes as 28 00:01:50,733 --> 00:01:55,213 Speaker 3: the British Sas stormed the embassy and attempted to free 29 00:01:55,213 --> 00:01:58,253 Speaker 3: the hostages.

The next 53 00:03:04,613 --> 00:03:08,093 Speaker 3: you're going through Granddad's draws picking him a bag of 54 00:03:08,133 --> 00:03:13,133 Speaker 3: his most precious possessions, and the next you realize it's 55 00:03:13,173 --> 00:03:16,973 Speaker 3: three years since you even drove down his street. State 56 00:03:17,093 --> 00:03:21,293 Speaker 3: Highway One was an absolute shocker, a shocker. I was 57 00:03:21,413 --> 00:03:24,573 Speaker 3: driving the old straight line heading south from christ Church 58 00:03:25,013 --> 00:03:30,853 Speaker 3: Rolliston Dunsandal, Rakaiah. The storm was fierce. There was surface 59 00:03:30,893 --> 00:03:34,533 Speaker 3: flooding and the rivers were up, which obviously made things worse. 60 00:03:34,573 --> 00:03:37,093 Speaker 3: But some of the potholes, honestly were so large they 61 00:03:37,093 --> 00:03:40,533 Speaker 3: could have swallowed the irrigators that usually crawled the paddocks 62 00:03:41,013 --> 00:03:44,973 Speaker 3: on either side of the road. Those irrigators have brought 63 00:03:45,053 --> 00:03:49,733 Speaker 3: a lot of prosperity to mid Canterbury, but not so 64 00:03:49,853 --> 00:03:53,573 Speaker 3: much on Grandad's street. His place was an old state 65 00:03:53,653 --> 00:03:56,293 Speaker 3: house on what Dad always called the wrong side of 66 00:03:56,333 --> 00:03:59,893 Speaker 3: the tracks, and given the main trunk line cuts right 67 00:03:59,973 --> 00:04:03,813 Speaker 3: through the middle of town, it's a literal thing in Ashburton, 68 00:04:05,453 --> 00:04:09,213 Speaker 3: Dad reckons. The family moved in in about nineteen sixty seven, 69 00:04:09,893 --> 00:04:14,173 Speaker 3: a two bedroom place clad in a shocking baby blue, 70 00:04:15,013 --> 00:04:18,573 Speaker 3: an eighty five square meter state house on a nine 71 00:04:18,653 --> 00:04:24,493 Speaker 3: hundred and something square meter section. They don't do property 72 00:04:24,573 --> 00:04:28,733 Speaker 3: like that anymore. The Tames had arrived from UK a 73 00:04:28,733 --> 00:04:33,013 Speaker 3: few years earlier. Migration had cost Grandma and Granddad basically 74 00:04:33,093 --> 00:04:36,613 Speaker 3: everything they had. By the early nineteen eighties, on his 75 00:04:36,693 --> 00:04:39,853 Speaker 3: limited income, Granddad had saved up and for twenty one 76 00:04:40,333 --> 00:04:42,893 Speaker 3: five hundred dollars he bought the house from the government 77 00:04:43,453 --> 00:04:46,693 Speaker 3: as a home for life. He spent his working life 78 00:04:46,813 --> 00:04:52,093 Speaker 3: slowly chipping away paying off the mortgage. The quarter acre dream. 79 00:04:52,973 --> 00:04:57,733 Speaker 3: Granddad always had an amazing garden, you know. He kind 80 00:04:57,733 --> 00:05:00,213 Speaker 3: of always made the most of all of that space. 81 00:05:01,053 --> 00:05:05,933 Speaker 3: The nine hundred square meters of backyard. There were vegetable beds. 82 00:05:06,093 --> 00:05:08,613 Speaker 3: There were like fruit trees. That was this massive compost 83 00:05:08,653 --> 00:05:11,293 Speaker 3: heap flowers out the front of the house, a big 84 00:05:11,333 --> 00:05:14,653 Speaker 3: hudder kicker bush. We used to play games of hide 85 00:05:14,693 --> 00:05:18,133 Speaker 3: and seek and go home, stay home, before retiring inside 86 00:05:18,493 --> 00:05:23,653 Speaker 3: for luncheon and tomato sauce, sandwiches, ugh and vegetable soup. 87 00:05:24,293 --> 00:05:28,293 Speaker 3: At home, our parents didn't really put salt in our food, 88 00:05:28,893 --> 00:05:30,733 Speaker 3: and it was always a thrill to eat a hot 89 00:05:30,813 --> 00:05:36,213 Speaker 3: lunch prepared by someone less concerned by cholesterol readings. The 90 00:05:36,253 --> 00:05:39,493 Speaker 3: neighbors back then were mixed. I remember Granddad telling us 91 00:05:39,493 --> 00:05:42,013 Speaker 3: once that if we hit the tennis ball over the fence, 92 00:05:42,533 --> 00:05:44,813 Speaker 3: it was probably best just to get a new one. 93 00:05:45,773 --> 00:05:49,453 Speaker 3: I doubt the police were strangers to the neighborhood. Inside 94 00:05:50,213 --> 00:05:52,653 Speaker 3: I used to curl up in Granddad's lazy boy and 95 00:05:53,013 --> 00:05:57,533 Speaker 3: read Grandma's gossip magazines by the fire. On the times 96 00:05:57,573 --> 00:06:02,053 Speaker 3: we stayed over, I read old Biggles stories that Grandad 97 00:06:02,093 --> 00:06:05,813 Speaker 3: had lying around. We'd all get covered in labrador fur, 98 00:06:06,533 --> 00:06:09,093 Speaker 3: and they had a faux grandfather clock in the living 99 00:06:09,173 --> 00:06:19,013 Speaker 3: room with a mechanism that filled every silence. Granddad lived 100 00:06:19,013 --> 00:06:21,893 Speaker 3: in that house for fifty five years. He raised his 101 00:06:21,973 --> 00:06:25,813 Speaker 3: sons there. He lost his wife there. When it finally 102 00:06:25,893 --> 00:06:29,013 Speaker 3: came time for him to leave, my cousin found his 103 00:06:29,093 --> 00:06:33,933 Speaker 3: war medals secreted away in one of his drawers. When 104 00:06:33,973 --> 00:06:37,893 Speaker 3: I came round the corner, the rain was pelting the windscreen. 105 00:06:38,733 --> 00:06:40,933 Speaker 3: It took just a moment to get my bearings. The 106 00:06:41,013 --> 00:06:45,893 Speaker 3: little place next door was gone, a similarly vast section 107 00:06:46,413 --> 00:06:50,013 Speaker 3: where once there was a humble cottage, It was now 108 00:06:50,093 --> 00:06:54,093 Speaker 3: filled with a tidy row of modern units. But there 109 00:06:54,573 --> 00:06:58,053 Speaker 3: was Granddad's. Some of the baby blue cladding was missing 110 00:06:58,093 --> 00:07:00,493 Speaker 3: on the front of the house. The hudder keke and 111 00:07:00,533 --> 00:07:03,053 Speaker 3: the flowers at the front had all been ripped out. 112 00:07:03,533 --> 00:07:05,733 Speaker 3: I'm sure the veggie patch out the back is done, 113 00:07:05,933 --> 00:07:09,773 Speaker 3: but the us was still there. Tired, yeah, but still there. 114 00:07:11,413 --> 00:07:14,773 Speaker 3: Nothing lasts forever. I can't say with certainty when I'll 115 00:07:14,773 --> 00:07:17,453 Speaker 3: be back, but I know one day I'm going to 116 00:07:17,533 --> 00:07:21,813 Speaker 3: come around that corner and Granddad's place will be gone too. 117 00:07:22,213 --> 00:07:25,893 Speaker 3: Jack Team, it's ninety two, ninety two.

Always had his 173 00:09:58,853 --> 00:10:00,533 Speaker 3: flying Fox, you know, like one of those proper ones 174 00:10:00,533 --> 00:10:02,813 Speaker 3: that probably wouldn't pass the health and safety laws these days. 175 00:10:02,813 --> 00:10:06,613 Speaker 3: But yeah, anyway, given you have been reflect you over 176 00:10:06,653 --> 00:10:09,053 Speaker 3: the last twenty four hours or so on the life 177 00:10:09,093 --> 00:10:10,253 Speaker 3: and times of Sir Bob Jones. 178 00:10:10,973 --> 00:10:13,853 Speaker 4: Yeah, Jack, As you know, when you work in television, 179 00:10:14,293 --> 00:10:18,893 Speaker 4: you've got to expect some criticism, some nasti reviews. But 180 00:10:19,013 --> 00:10:22,373 Speaker 4: the king of the Nazi review was Sair Bob Jones, 181 00:10:22,373 --> 00:10:26,773 Speaker 4: who died yesterday. One review of a Fairgo story i'd done, 182 00:10:27,133 --> 00:10:29,773 Speaker 4: I've kept. It's a bit of a classic. It refers 183 00:10:29,813 --> 00:10:32,733 Speaker 4: to one of the best stories I ever did on Fairgo. 184 00:10:32,813 --> 00:10:35,253 Speaker 4: Actually it ended up in the courts all the way 185 00:10:35,333 --> 00:10:37,933 Speaker 4: up to the Court of Appeal and Fairgo won it 186 00:10:38,453 --> 00:10:43,093 Speaker 4: that Bob didn't like it. Bob's review was lengthy, and 187 00:10:43,133 --> 00:10:45,613 Speaker 4: here is just some of the lines from it. It 188 00:10:45,693 --> 00:10:49,933 Speaker 4: appeared in Wellington's Dominion newspaper headlined would you buy a 189 00:10:49,973 --> 00:10:54,813 Speaker 4: Fairgo used car? Story? It begins one of the worst 190 00:10:54,893 --> 00:11:00,293 Speaker 4: examples of defamatory television journalism abuse I have ever heard, 191 00:11:00,973 --> 00:11:07,373 Speaker 4: shamelessly ignorant and grossly unfair. According to the smug mediocrates 192 00:11:07,773 --> 00:11:11,293 Speaker 4: who present this show, this was an example of moral 193 00:11:11,613 --> 00:11:18,853 Speaker 4: and ethical turpitude, demanding nationwide exposure. This bumptuous shower at 194 00:11:18,893 --> 00:11:24,053 Speaker 4: Fairgo knows nothing about commercial practice. According to these buffoons, 195 00:11:24,653 --> 00:11:27,013 Speaker 4: this was a one off revelation. 196 00:11:27,013 --> 00:11:28,133 Speaker 2: That they discovered. 197 00:11:28,453 --> 00:11:34,253 Speaker 4: It was a disgrace. It was unjust, ignorant, unbalanced, defamatory 198 00:11:34,533 --> 00:11:38,973 Speaker 4: and in my view, a crime against decency. It was, 199 00:11:39,013 --> 00:11:42,573 Speaker 4: in one word, sleazy. The program has a lack of 200 00:11:42,653 --> 00:11:47,413 Speaker 4: balance and has witch hunting tendencies. So Bob en that 201 00:11:47,533 --> 00:11:53,973 Speaker 4: with fairgoes a row of smug, supercilious and ignorant talking heads. 202 00:11:54,653 --> 00:12:00,133 Speaker 4: It's garbage. This program should be closed down smartly. Anyway, 203 00:12:00,133 --> 00:12:03,253 Speaker 4: that was way back in nineteen eighty eight and Fairgo 204 00:12:03,533 --> 00:12:07,573 Speaker 4: continued successfully for another thirty six years. I later got 205 00:12:07,613 --> 00:12:10,453 Speaker 4: to know and quite enjoyed so, but I had some months. 206 00:12:10,453 --> 00:12:13,773 Speaker 4: If you remembered the review, he said he didn't, but 207 00:12:13,893 --> 00:12:18,613 Speaker 4: Bob Jones will be remembered as a terrific writer. Jack 208 00:12:18,813 --> 00:12:23,013 Speaker 4: Wellington already feels all the more gray for its Patsy. 209 00:12:23,333 --> 00:12:24,293 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's funny, I. 210 00:12:25,813 --> 00:12:25,933 Speaker 7: Can. 211 00:12:26,133 --> 00:12:29,013 Speaker 3: I can tell you that similarly, Bob Jones was no 212 00:12:29,133 --> 00:12:32,453 Speaker 3: great fan of mine. However, I actually had I actually 213 00:12:32,493 --> 00:12:34,933 Speaker 3: went and saw him a few years ago. It was 214 00:12:34,973 --> 00:12:38,213 Speaker 3: very interesting. It was just before COVID. It was like 215 00:12:38,413 --> 00:12:41,773 Speaker 3: literally about a week before the COVID lockdown in New Zealand, 216 00:12:41,773 --> 00:12:46,653 Speaker 3: and that's when, you know, senior government officials were kind 217 00:12:46,653 --> 00:12:49,613 Speaker 3: of not really considering the prospect of lockdowns or anything 218 00:12:49,733 --> 00:12:52,333 Speaker 3: like that. And he said to me, he watched this. 219 00:12:52,333 --> 00:12:53,733 Speaker 3: This whole country is going to be locked down in 220 00:12:53,773 --> 00:12:55,933 Speaker 3: a week or two. The global economy is going to 221 00:12:55,933 --> 00:12:58,173 Speaker 3: be totally disrupted, all of the supply chain is going 222 00:12:58,213 --> 00:12:59,853 Speaker 3: to be a massive issue. You just wait in New 223 00:12:59,933 --> 00:13:02,533 Speaker 3: Zealand's going to need support from the government all these things. 224 00:13:02,973 --> 00:13:04,693 Speaker 3: And then, of course, about three days later he just 225 00:13:04,813 --> 00:13:07,693 Speaker 3: proved to be one hundred percent right. But you know, 226 00:13:07,973 --> 00:13:09,893 Speaker 3: I know there are some people, you know who have 227 00:13:10,573 --> 00:13:12,773 Speaker 3: you been upset by comments he's made over the years, 228 00:13:12,773 --> 00:13:15,653 Speaker 3: And certainly he's he's not been a shrinking violent when 229 00:13:15,653 --> 00:13:17,973 Speaker 3: it comes to, you know, saying what he really thinks. 230 00:13:18,533 --> 00:13:20,933 Speaker 4: But yeah, it's not about As long as it's not 231 00:13:21,013 --> 00:13:24,173 Speaker 4: about you, it can be most enjoyable reading some of 232 00:13:24,213 --> 00:13:24,813 Speaker 4: his pieces. 233 00:13:24,933 --> 00:13:28,973 Speaker 3: Yeah, you feel like this, you know, like he's such 234 00:13:29,013 --> 00:13:30,493 Speaker 3: a character, you know, you sort of feel like the 235 00:13:30,613 --> 00:13:33,973 Speaker 3: character like that couldn't quite exist in the modern age anymore, 236 00:13:34,013 --> 00:13:35,853 Speaker 3: you know, which is which is a bit of a shame. Yeah. 237 00:13:36,133 --> 00:13:39,413 Speaker 4: I gave the speech at Marry Soaper's seventieth birthday a 238 00:13:39,413 --> 00:13:41,933 Speaker 4: couple of years ago, and we were chatting, Bob No, 239 00:13:42,053 --> 00:13:44,933 Speaker 4: were chatting beforehand, and I give him a speech and 240 00:13:44,973 --> 00:13:48,733 Speaker 4: he saiden he suddenly lets out with your bloody ugly 241 00:13:48,853 --> 00:13:53,173 Speaker 4: milkah and you learn but you learned that he didn't 242 00:13:53,213 --> 00:13:53,493 Speaker 4: mean it. 243 00:13:53,653 --> 00:13:57,053 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's just all part of the fun. Yeah, 244 00:13:57,173 --> 00:13:58,973 Speaker 3: a very good Hey, thanks Kivin. You have ever got 245 00:13:58,973 --> 00:14:02,533 Speaker 3: weekend and we catch again really soon.

It is nice to reflect on the sacrifices 254 00:14:24,093 --> 00:14:26,413 Speaker 3: and graft of older generations who have helped set us 255 00:14:26,493 --> 00:14:31,373 Speaker 3: up for our lives today.

Jacket Newstalks 262 00:14:47,693 --> 00:14:50,413 Speaker 3: b dot co dot NZ. Time to catch up with 263 00:14:50,413 --> 00:14:53,733 Speaker 3: our Sporto Andrews, Savil and sav I've got my well, 264 00:14:53,733 --> 00:14:57,133 Speaker 3: I've got one eye on the F one sprint qualifications 265 00:14:57,173 --> 00:15:00,093 Speaker 3: in Miami. So Liam Lawson didn't make it through to 266 00:15:00,133 --> 00:15:02,773 Speaker 3: sprint qualifying three, made a bit of an error, fortunately 267 00:15:02,773 --> 00:15:04,093 Speaker 3: didn't put the car into the wall. It was one 268 00:15:04,133 --> 00:15:06,013 Speaker 3: of those moments that looked just for a second like 269 00:15:06,093 --> 00:15:08,413 Speaker 3: it over cook things and he might you know, have 270 00:15:08,493 --> 00:15:12,613 Speaker 3: some real issues. But yeah, unfortunately knocked out in sprint 271 00:15:12,693 --> 00:15:13,813 Speaker 3: qualifying two this morning. 272 00:15:14,573 --> 00:15:16,733 Speaker 9: Yeah, so he's ended up what fourteenth. I think he'll 273 00:15:16,773 --> 00:15:22,533 Speaker 9: start in the sprint race tomorrow morning. Interesting to see 274 00:15:22,573 --> 00:15:26,253 Speaker 9: that this young driver Antonelli for Mercedes his pole position. 275 00:15:27,653 --> 00:15:27,853 Speaker 4: Yeah. 276 00:15:27,933 --> 00:15:31,653 Speaker 3: Yeah, he is his first ever poll so nineteen ridiculously 277 00:15:32,933 --> 00:15:33,693 Speaker 3: drive his license. 278 00:15:33,733 --> 00:15:33,853 Speaker 5: Yah. 279 00:15:33,933 --> 00:15:39,653 Speaker 9: Yeah. But as long as I think Liam Lawson. 280 00:15:39,373 --> 00:15:42,373 Speaker 3: He's eighteen, he's eighteen. 281 00:15:42,573 --> 00:15:45,933 Speaker 9: He's getting younger as we speak. I think as long 282 00:15:45,973 --> 00:15:48,933 Speaker 9: as Lawson keeps just chipping away, doesn't put it into 283 00:15:48,973 --> 00:15:51,493 Speaker 9: the fence like I think someone else and one of 284 00:15:51,533 --> 00:15:55,573 Speaker 9: the other younger drivers did today, and keep his nose 285 00:15:55,613 --> 00:15:58,933 Speaker 9: clean and races. You know, there's always a chance you're 286 00:15:58,973 --> 00:16:01,693 Speaker 9: starting twelve thirteen, fourteen that you get into the top ten. 287 00:16:02,333 --> 00:16:04,333 Speaker 9: Sprint races are a little bit more tricky because they're 288 00:16:04,373 --> 00:16:08,893 Speaker 9: so short. This is his first time in Miami. It's 289 00:16:08,973 --> 00:16:10,933 Speaker 9: quite a bizarre track. It's actually in the car park 290 00:16:10,933 --> 00:16:15,693 Speaker 9: of a football stadium, the Miami Dolphins NFL Stadium. So 291 00:16:15,813 --> 00:16:19,173 Speaker 9: all these new sorts of challenges and pressures for Lillam 292 00:16:19,213 --> 00:16:21,733 Speaker 9: Lawson every week it seems to be more intense pressure 293 00:16:21,773 --> 00:16:23,173 Speaker 9: isn't there. But that's formula one for you. 294 00:16:23,373 --> 00:16:26,093 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it is. Well, look to see how it 295 00:16:26,133 --> 00:16:28,173 Speaker 3: goes over the weekend. Obviously a bit of action to 296 00:16:28,213 --> 00:16:29,693 Speaker 3: come there over the next forty eight hours or so, 297 00:16:29,773 --> 00:16:31,453 Speaker 3: so hopefully things are all right. What do you make 298 00:16:31,453 --> 00:16:32,733 Speaker 3: of that Blues performance last night? 299 00:16:33,373 --> 00:16:36,173 Speaker 9: I thought it was pretty good. I thought the force 300 00:16:36,253 --> 00:16:37,573 Speaker 9: and patches were okay. 301 00:16:38,653 --> 00:16:39,773 Speaker 2: The Blues. 302 00:16:41,853 --> 00:16:44,733 Speaker 9: Certainly not back to what they were last year, but 303 00:16:44,893 --> 00:16:48,133 Speaker 9: there were glimpses and the good thing for them is 304 00:16:48,133 --> 00:16:51,573 Speaker 9: that they scored a bonus point victory. They're into six 305 00:16:51,973 --> 00:16:55,373 Speaker 9: for the time being. They're still four and seven on 306 00:16:55,453 --> 00:16:57,693 Speaker 9: the season. If they win their next three, which they're 307 00:16:57,733 --> 00:16:59,333 Speaker 9: going to have to, and probably pick up a bonus 308 00:16:59,333 --> 00:17:01,933 Speaker 9: point or two, they'll end up at seven and seven 309 00:17:03,133 --> 00:17:05,573 Speaker 9: for the season, and that could still well be enough 310 00:17:05,893 --> 00:17:08,133 Speaker 9: to make it into the top six. I know Jack 311 00:17:08,213 --> 00:17:14,053 Speaker 9: that each win or a performance like that will reinstall 312 00:17:14,173 --> 00:17:18,413 Speaker 9: some confidence which I think has been lacking. I think 313 00:17:18,413 --> 00:17:23,253 Speaker 9: there's some players in that Blues team who are all Blacks, 314 00:17:23,253 --> 00:17:26,973 Speaker 9: who just appear to be still off kilter a little bit, 315 00:17:27,973 --> 00:17:30,533 Speaker 9: still getting back to their best, So that may well 316 00:17:30,573 --> 00:17:32,493 Speaker 9: happen in the next few weeks and I can assure 317 00:17:32,533 --> 00:17:36,333 Speaker 9: you that other Kiwi Super Rugby teams especially are not 318 00:17:36,493 --> 00:17:40,533 Speaker 9: rating them off and still fearful of what they can 319 00:17:40,693 --> 00:17:42,973 Speaker 9: muster on any given day. 320 00:17:43,173 --> 00:17:45,693 Speaker 3: So do you what was funny last night? The last 321 00:17:45,773 --> 00:17:48,333 Speaker 3: couple of minutes, you know how the Blues and they 322 00:17:48,373 --> 00:17:51,853 Speaker 3: had the bonus point. I know, all I had to 323 00:17:51,853 --> 00:17:54,533 Speaker 3: do was run the ball out. They had possession and 324 00:17:54,533 --> 00:17:58,013 Speaker 3: then this problem was series and tried to kick it 325 00:17:58,013 --> 00:17:59,093 Speaker 3: and then miss to kick it. 326 00:17:59,093 --> 00:18:01,213 Speaker 9: Out of miss the ball and then I thought, oh no, 327 00:18:01,613 --> 00:18:03,733 Speaker 9: this could be. This could sum up the Blue season 328 00:18:03,733 --> 00:18:06,213 Speaker 9: the force of scoring. The Blues will lose their bonus point. 329 00:18:06,253 --> 00:18:08,173 Speaker 3: And then they'll and then they'll miss the playoffs by 330 00:18:08,173 --> 00:18:08,933 Speaker 3: a bonus point. 331 00:18:09,013 --> 00:18:12,413 Speaker 9: You know, So they got out of dodge or they 332 00:18:12,413 --> 00:18:17,173 Speaker 9: got out of a fairly empty park with the points right. 333 00:18:17,453 --> 00:18:20,853 Speaker 9: Caine's Chiefs Tonight, huge game in Wellington, replay of that 334 00:18:20,933 --> 00:18:24,613 Speaker 9: semi final from last year where the Chiefs did them. 335 00:18:24,933 --> 00:18:26,853 Speaker 9: The Chiefs are number one at the moment and then 336 00:18:27,013 --> 00:18:29,413 Speaker 9: next week, whatever happens this weekend, it's going to be 337 00:18:29,453 --> 00:18:33,493 Speaker 9: one v two Chiefs Crusaders in christ Church, which will 338 00:18:33,493 --> 00:18:35,453 Speaker 9: be an intriguing match as well. 339 00:18:35,533 --> 00:18:38,933 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, very much looking forward to that. Warriors looking 340 00:18:39,213 --> 00:18:41,333 Speaker 3: looking pretty good for the time being. All things have 341 00:18:41,373 --> 00:18:43,733 Speaker 3: started well, We're gone very well over the last couple 342 00:18:43,733 --> 00:18:45,293 Speaker 3: of things. We got there up at the trick. 343 00:18:46,693 --> 00:18:49,293 Speaker 9: Tricky game in Brisbane. This is the Magic Round. I 344 00:18:49,333 --> 00:18:52,853 Speaker 9: saw some of the games last night. Fantastic atmosphere. This 345 00:18:52,853 --> 00:18:55,573 Speaker 9: this magic round has worked a treat in the NRAL. 346 00:18:55,613 --> 00:18:58,933 Speaker 9: Rugby's Magic Round was a complete disaster in Melbourne. That's 347 00:18:58,973 --> 00:19:01,653 Speaker 9: not happening again. But the Rugby League ones worked a 348 00:19:01,653 --> 00:19:05,853 Speaker 9: real treat the last few years. The Warriors will will 349 00:19:05,893 --> 00:19:10,133 Speaker 9: probably the home team, yeah, given the huge support they 350 00:19:10,173 --> 00:19:14,173 Speaker 9: have in Brisbane and Queensland. Playing the North Queensland Cowboys 351 00:19:14,173 --> 00:19:17,813 Speaker 9: Tricky tricky game. Cowboys in a similar position to the Warriors. 352 00:19:17,813 --> 00:19:19,773 Speaker 9: They're sort of flying under the radar a bit. They've 353 00:19:19,773 --> 00:19:23,853 Speaker 9: been playing well the last few weeks, so a decent 354 00:19:23,853 --> 00:19:27,253 Speaker 9: assignment for the Warriors and Auckland lift see tonight. Fifteen 355 00:19:28,253 --> 00:19:30,813 Speaker 9: games without a loss and that would be if they 356 00:19:30,813 --> 00:19:34,893 Speaker 9: can win beat Western United on the outskirts of Melbourne tonight, 357 00:19:34,973 --> 00:19:37,333 Speaker 9: that would be good momentum heading into the playoffs. 358 00:19:38,133 --> 00:19:39,933 Speaker 3: Yeah, very good. All right, have a good weekend, sir. 359 00:19:40,013 --> 00:19:44,133 Speaker 3: We'll catch you soon. Our Sporto Andrew Saville there coming 360 00:19:44,173 --> 00:19:46,053 Speaker 3: up very shortly. We get film picks for this week, 361 00:19:46,093 --> 00:19:51,293 Speaker 3: including that incredible looking documentary with Marlon Williams What's it 362 00:19:51,293 --> 00:19:55,173 Speaker 3: called Our Rua, which is the documentary that kind of 363 00:19:55,173 --> 00:20:00,933 Speaker 3: follows him making his latest album. From what I've seen 364 00:20:00,933 --> 00:20:02,973 Speaker 3: in the film, it looks amazing. So anyway, our film 365 00:20:03,013 --> 00:20:04,493 Speaker 3: reviewers Ben to say that she's going to give us 366 00:20:04,493 --> 00:20:06,373 Speaker 3: her thoughts on that very shortly. I think you very much. 367 00:20:06,413 --> 00:20:10,413 Speaker 3: Few messes, Jack, regarding potholes, Sorry, but there's absolutely nothing new. 368 00:20:10,493 --> 00:20:12,773 Speaker 3: Nearly all South Island highways are exactly the same and 369 00:20:12,813 --> 00:20:15,413 Speaker 3: have been for a number of years. Jack. I went 370 00:20:15,453 --> 00:20:17,653 Speaker 3: to see my mother on Thursday. The news reports were 371 00:20:17,693 --> 00:20:20,573 Speaker 3: reporting sink holes on State Highway One, and they weren't 372 00:20:20,613 --> 00:20:22,973 Speaker 3: far wrong from what I noticed. All the potholes and 373 00:20:23,013 --> 00:20:26,773 Speaker 3: shrapnel were from recent reseiling, from previous patch up jobs. 374 00:20:27,133 --> 00:20:29,253 Speaker 3: Is what we've come to expect this, Michael. I mean, look, 375 00:20:29,293 --> 00:20:31,893 Speaker 3: I was driving in the middle of that storm, and 376 00:20:31,973 --> 00:20:34,493 Speaker 3: so you know, I wasn't I was kind of in 377 00:20:34,573 --> 00:20:36,893 Speaker 3: Selwyn for a little bit, but then driving south in 378 00:20:36,973 --> 00:20:42,813 Speaker 3: the storm, and like I've driven in some like developing 379 00:20:42,813 --> 00:20:45,653 Speaker 3: countries that have better roads in state Iowan. I mean 380 00:20:45,693 --> 00:20:47,773 Speaker 3: it was in the middle of the storm, right, so okay, 381 00:20:48,293 --> 00:20:51,173 Speaker 3: Like obviously it's going to be all of those things 382 00:20:51,213 --> 00:20:53,773 Speaker 3: are going to be heightened, and the potholes are going 383 00:20:53,813 --> 00:20:56,213 Speaker 3: to be worse than they would usually be. But I 384 00:20:56,253 --> 00:20:59,853 Speaker 3: think to have the scale of the potholes as they 385 00:20:59,893 --> 00:21:02,413 Speaker 3: were this week, they needed to you needed to already 386 00:21:02,453 --> 00:21:04,013 Speaker 3: have a road that was in you know, kind of 387 00:21:04,053 --> 00:21:07,293 Speaker 3: a serious state of disrepair. That would be mine alisis anyway, 388 00:21:07,653 --> 00:21:10,533 Speaker 3: not knowing that much about about road ceiling, you know, 389 00:21:10,533 --> 00:21:12,893 Speaker 3: I hadn't been raining for hadn't been raining for five 390 00:21:12,973 --> 00:21:14,693 Speaker 3: days or anything. It was, you know, it was it 391 00:21:14,733 --> 00:21:16,573 Speaker 3: was part way through the storm. But my goodness, I 392 00:21:16,613 --> 00:21:20,613 Speaker 3: just cannot believe how bad the road was. Anyway, Jack 393 00:21:20,733 --> 00:21:22,773 Speaker 3: enjoyed your comments this morning and your memories with your 394 00:21:22,773 --> 00:21:25,493 Speaker 3: grandma and granddad. My nana and granddad always had the 395 00:21:25,493 --> 00:21:27,773 Speaker 3: horse racing channel on the radio, a glass of beer 396 00:21:27,773 --> 00:21:30,013 Speaker 3: on the kitchen table. They were great to me. Yeah, 397 00:21:30,053 --> 00:21:31,893 Speaker 3: It's funny how you have these little memories of little 398 00:21:31,933 --> 00:21:34,693 Speaker 3: details like that day. Like for me, it's like stuff 399 00:21:34,733 --> 00:21:37,093 Speaker 3: like you know, like Grandad had biggles, you know in 400 00:21:37,093 --> 00:21:40,053 Speaker 3: his house. I could read Biggles as a kid anyway 401 00:21:40,173 --> 00:21:42,093 Speaker 3: ninety two. If you want to send us a message 402 00:21:42,093 --> 00:21:42,733 Speaker 3: twenty seven. 403 00:21:42,573 --> 00:22:03,053 Speaker 10: To ten, make them all monocle cold. 404 00:22:04,733 --> 00:22:10,133 Speaker 3: Oh ah, that's gorgeous, isn't it? That voice? My goodness, 405 00:22:10,373 --> 00:22:15,493 Speaker 3: that's O Dura by Marlon Williams. Of course, New Zealand 406 00:22:15,533 --> 00:22:19,533 Speaker 3: Music Month has officially begun. We're in May, gulp, which 407 00:22:19,613 --> 00:22:21,653 Speaker 3: means that as well as his new album, we have 408 00:22:21,693 --> 00:22:25,093 Speaker 3: a brand new documentary from Marlon Williams. To kick us off, 409 00:22:25,133 --> 00:22:28,333 Speaker 3: Francisca Rudgin, our film reviewer, is here with us this morning. 410 00:22:28,373 --> 00:22:31,693 Speaker 3: Cold to Francisca, good on. You have been to see 411 00:22:32,293 --> 00:22:36,133 Speaker 3: our rua Two Worlds that's showing in cinemas at the moment, 412 00:22:36,173 --> 00:22:37,573 Speaker 3: So tell us about it. 413 00:22:38,213 --> 00:22:38,573 Speaker 5: Ah. 414 00:22:38,613 --> 00:22:40,813 Speaker 7: Look, that was filmed over four years. 415 00:22:41,533 --> 00:22:44,213 Speaker 11: As you mentioned, It follows musician Marlon Williams as he 416 00:22:44,293 --> 00:22:46,973 Speaker 11: writes and records his first album in Todail. 417 00:22:47,493 --> 00:22:50,293 Speaker 7: It's a hugely personal project for him. 418 00:22:50,373 --> 00:22:56,013 Speaker 11: Jacket's the story of identity, connecting with his culture, reclaiming Israel, 419 00:22:56,653 --> 00:23:00,693 Speaker 11: and as an artist and as a man, finding his 420 00:23:00,853 --> 00:23:05,093 Speaker 11: place in the different worlds that he exists in. And Look, 421 00:23:05,133 --> 00:23:10,693 Speaker 11: Marlon Williams is a very charismatic warm, talented person. If 422 00:23:10,733 --> 00:23:12,893 Speaker 11: you've ever interviewed him or sent him a concert, you know, 423 00:23:12,973 --> 00:23:18,893 Speaker 11: he really is very charismatic. But I think interestingly, director 424 00:23:19,013 --> 00:23:22,653 Speaker 11: Ursula Grace william realized that you couldn't just rely on 425 00:23:22,693 --> 00:23:26,733 Speaker 11: that when it came to making a documentary about the 426 00:23:26,773 --> 00:23:29,613 Speaker 11: making of an album and Malon he didn't want a biopic. 427 00:23:29,653 --> 00:23:31,253 Speaker 7: He was like, I'm not ready for that yet. 428 00:23:31,333 --> 00:23:34,293 Speaker 11: You know, I don't want that, but she kind of 429 00:23:34,333 --> 00:23:39,693 Speaker 11: recognized that probably, you know, for artists, it's really interesting 430 00:23:40,693 --> 00:23:42,293 Speaker 11: watching the creative process. 431 00:23:42,533 --> 00:23:45,053 Speaker 7: But if you want to engage people in a film 432 00:23:45,093 --> 00:23:46,493 Speaker 7: and a broad audience in. 433 00:23:46,493 --> 00:23:49,653 Speaker 11: A film, it has to be there has to be 434 00:23:49,693 --> 00:23:55,053 Speaker 11: an element of kind of entertainment there. So she's done 435 00:23:55,053 --> 00:23:57,853 Speaker 11: this really amazing job. 436 00:23:58,093 --> 00:23:59,733 Speaker 7: I think of. 437 00:24:01,453 --> 00:24:05,173 Speaker 11: At first putting Malon Williams into context. So at the 438 00:24:05,213 --> 00:24:07,533 Speaker 11: beginning of the film we kind of cover off his 439 00:24:07,693 --> 00:24:11,213 Speaker 11: career to date, his personal journey. 440 00:24:11,253 --> 00:24:12,253 Speaker 7: But along the way we. 441 00:24:12,333 --> 00:24:15,453 Speaker 11: Return to see his family home and hear about his upbringing, 442 00:24:15,453 --> 00:24:18,653 Speaker 11: and hear about his parents and he was very close to. 443 00:24:18,773 --> 00:24:20,653 Speaker 7: And the influence that they had on him. 444 00:24:21,493 --> 00:24:23,293 Speaker 11: And then he's kind of in his early thirties and 445 00:24:23,333 --> 00:24:25,133 Speaker 11: he talks a lot about the fact that touring has 446 00:24:25,133 --> 00:24:27,253 Speaker 11: already taken a toll on him, and the nature of 447 00:24:27,293 --> 00:24:30,293 Speaker 11: life is very transient, and I think in a way 448 00:24:30,373 --> 00:24:33,333 Speaker 11: he wanted to ground himself, even though he knows that 449 00:24:33,413 --> 00:24:35,293 Speaker 11: his life may not lead him to sort of, you know, 450 00:24:35,733 --> 00:24:37,013 Speaker 11: living a very grounded life. 451 00:24:37,213 --> 00:24:38,413 Speaker 7: That's kind of where. 452 00:24:38,213 --> 00:24:43,333 Speaker 11: He goes on this journey. I think the music is 453 00:24:43,373 --> 00:24:47,333 Speaker 11: wonderful in this film. The cinematography gives this journey gravitas 454 00:24:47,413 --> 00:24:48,053 Speaker 11: and beauty. 455 00:24:48,453 --> 00:24:51,533 Speaker 7: The editing, though, I think is really excellent. You know, they've. 456 00:24:51,373 --> 00:24:55,133 Speaker 11: Created a very pacy, engaging film. They keep the energy up, 457 00:24:55,573 --> 00:24:57,413 Speaker 11: they get the right amount of music and heard the 458 00:24:57,493 --> 00:24:59,853 Speaker 11: right amount of talk, the right amount of just observation 459 00:25:00,013 --> 00:25:04,613 Speaker 11: and things. So I think it's a very thoughtful, beautiful 460 00:25:04,653 --> 00:25:07,533 Speaker 11: film that's going to really appeal to fans. And as 461 00:25:07,533 --> 00:25:10,293 Speaker 11: you know, I'm a huge fan of Marlon's beautiful voice. 462 00:25:10,773 --> 00:25:13,093 Speaker 11: But he's got this massive international audience, so I think 463 00:25:13,093 --> 00:25:15,373 Speaker 11: we'll be fascinated to learn a lot more about him, 464 00:25:15,493 --> 00:25:17,453 Speaker 11: and then then there's all these people who are going 465 00:25:17,493 --> 00:25:20,373 Speaker 11: to be introduced to him as well. 466 00:25:20,853 --> 00:25:23,453 Speaker 7: So yeah, no, I was. I thought I found a 467 00:25:23,533 --> 00:25:25,013 Speaker 7: really moving experience. 468 00:25:25,053 --> 00:25:25,773 Speaker 5: What did film? 469 00:25:25,933 --> 00:25:29,973 Speaker 3: Oh great? I cannot wait to see it. It sounds fantastic. Okay, 470 00:25:30,013 --> 00:25:34,733 Speaker 3: So it's Marlon Williams a which means two worlds. Next up, 471 00:25:34,813 --> 00:25:39,213 Speaker 3: something commletely different, a new all star Marvel movie. Let's 472 00:25:39,253 --> 00:25:41,853 Speaker 3: have a little bit of a listen to Thunderbolts. 473 00:25:44,733 --> 00:25:45,773 Speaker 12: Let's talk facts. 474 00:25:46,213 --> 00:25:48,413 Speaker 1: The Avengers are not cunning? 475 00:25:51,173 --> 00:25:54,733 Speaker 3: Who will keep the American people? 476 00:25:55,133 --> 00:26:01,933 Speaker 2: See? Ay, you got some pleasing to me. I love 477 00:26:02,013 --> 00:26:04,853 Speaker 2: that guy. 478 00:26:05,733 --> 00:26:09,653 Speaker 3: Okay, there its Thunderbolts. Since Marl tell us about it, 479 00:26:09,653 --> 00:26:10,253 Speaker 3: Reggie's good. 480 00:26:11,253 --> 00:26:14,133 Speaker 11: So this is another film in the Phase five sort 481 00:26:14,173 --> 00:26:17,373 Speaker 11: of period of Marvel cinematic universe. So these are films 482 00:26:17,373 --> 00:26:19,533 Speaker 11: and TV shows that have been released between twenty twenty 483 00:26:19,533 --> 00:26:21,973 Speaker 11: three and twenty twenty five middle of this year. 484 00:26:22,093 --> 00:26:23,973 Speaker 7: But to be honest with you, it's kind of been 485 00:26:23,973 --> 00:26:25,653 Speaker 7: a bit of a mixed bunch. There's been The Ant 486 00:26:25,733 --> 00:26:29,453 Speaker 7: Man and the Wasp, Quantum Mania, there was The Gardians 487 00:26:29,453 --> 00:26:30,013 Speaker 7: of the Galaxy. 488 00:26:30,013 --> 00:26:32,293 Speaker 11: There was a Captain America film, Brave New World that 489 00:26:32,373 --> 00:26:34,613 Speaker 11: was released in mid February that no one knows about. 490 00:26:35,053 --> 00:26:37,133 Speaker 11: They didn't screen it. There was doesn't seem to be 491 00:26:37,133 --> 00:26:39,933 Speaker 11: any hype about it. No one really knew about it. 492 00:26:40,013 --> 00:26:41,773 Speaker 11: I don't know how well it's doing it at the cinemas. 493 00:26:42,093 --> 00:26:43,293 Speaker 11: I'm sure that you know, there's been a bit of 494 00:26:43,333 --> 00:26:45,733 Speaker 11: word abouth around it. But it's really interesting at the 495 00:26:45,733 --> 00:26:48,653 Speaker 11: moment with Marvel that they're not making any huge efforts 496 00:26:48,693 --> 00:26:52,453 Speaker 11: to show these films, to screen them to you know, 497 00:26:52,533 --> 00:26:54,693 Speaker 11: to promote them in that way. Normally they would have 498 00:26:54,693 --> 00:26:56,253 Speaker 11: a screening for us. It might only be a couple 499 00:26:56,293 --> 00:26:58,573 Speaker 11: of days before, but they'd be building the hype. 500 00:26:58,573 --> 00:27:00,133 Speaker 7: They want people to promote it, talk about it. 501 00:27:00,573 --> 00:27:02,573 Speaker 11: And Thunderbolts kind of came out of the blue as well. 502 00:27:02,653 --> 00:27:05,733 Speaker 11: It's like, oh, here's another Marvel film, but no one's 503 00:27:05,773 --> 00:27:06,533 Speaker 11: talking about that. 504 00:27:06,533 --> 00:27:08,253 Speaker 7: They're not promoting it. Really, there's not a lot of 505 00:27:08,333 --> 00:27:11,093 Speaker 7: hyphen It's like, why not because this one isn't too bad? 506 00:27:12,613 --> 00:27:16,533 Speaker 11: Because because when they don't do screenings, Jack immediately you go, oh, 507 00:27:16,693 --> 00:27:19,733 Speaker 11: it's no good, and that's generally in the past why 508 00:27:20,773 --> 00:27:22,173 Speaker 11: studios don't do screenings. 509 00:27:22,573 --> 00:27:23,573 Speaker 7: But look, this one's okay. 510 00:27:23,653 --> 00:27:26,213 Speaker 11: It as dressed up as a breath of free share 511 00:27:26,333 --> 00:27:29,773 Speaker 11: but turns out to be a pretty predictable Marvel flick 512 00:27:30,173 --> 00:27:31,253 Speaker 11: I did enjoy that. 513 00:27:31,333 --> 00:27:33,293 Speaker 7: It's a bit edgy, there's a darkness to it. There's 514 00:27:33,293 --> 00:27:34,573 Speaker 7: an existential crisis. 515 00:27:34,653 --> 00:27:39,693 Speaker 11: They are trying to put some substance into this film. 516 00:27:39,773 --> 00:27:41,733 Speaker 11: I don't know where the younger audience is already going 517 00:27:41,773 --> 00:27:44,613 Speaker 11: to watch all their heroes have existential crisis, but you know, 518 00:27:45,253 --> 00:27:49,253 Speaker 11: maybe it will appeal. We've got a bunch of heroes 519 00:27:49,253 --> 00:27:52,053 Speaker 11: who are actually anti heroes. They're kind of like failed 520 00:27:52,133 --> 00:27:54,813 Speaker 11: heroes who clean up the messes in the background. They're 521 00:27:54,853 --> 00:27:57,413 Speaker 11: not front facing, as they say in the film. They're 522 00:27:57,453 --> 00:28:00,133 Speaker 11: the kind of hugely disposable ones in the background who 523 00:28:00,133 --> 00:28:02,013 Speaker 11: are very talented at what they do, but they don't 524 00:28:02,053 --> 00:28:04,813 Speaker 11: have the kind of the glory roles and things. And 525 00:28:04,973 --> 00:28:07,693 Speaker 11: Florence Pugh leads the bunch here, and she's absolutely excellent. 526 00:28:07,773 --> 00:28:10,933 Speaker 11: She's fantastic. She really drives us. She plays Jelena, who 527 00:28:11,093 --> 00:28:14,773 Speaker 11: is the black widow's sister. You've got White Russell in there, 528 00:28:14,853 --> 00:28:18,253 Speaker 11: who's John Walker. David Harbor plays her father, a Lexi. 529 00:28:18,293 --> 00:28:18,933 Speaker 7: He's in there as well. 530 00:28:18,973 --> 00:28:22,053 Speaker 11: They're drained by the ghost Taskmaster and also Sebastian stands 531 00:28:22,093 --> 00:28:24,733 Speaker 11: Bucky and they all kind of come together. They find 532 00:28:24,733 --> 00:28:26,773 Speaker 11: themselves in this room. They're all sent on missions to 533 00:28:26,773 --> 00:28:31,933 Speaker 11: annihilate each other. They realize that their boss, Valentina, is 534 00:28:31,973 --> 00:28:33,213 Speaker 11: trying to get rid of them all. So they all 535 00:28:33,253 --> 00:28:35,573 Speaker 11: team up together kind of come back to the real 536 00:28:35,613 --> 00:28:42,933 Speaker 11: world and realize that Valentina has most accidentally created this 537 00:28:43,613 --> 00:28:49,053 Speaker 11: godlike superhero who has the potential to take over the world. 538 00:28:49,133 --> 00:28:55,293 Speaker 11: But it's a very lonely, not very stable, unhappy man 539 00:28:55,453 --> 00:28:59,373 Speaker 11: who actually becomes a bit of a baddie, and so 540 00:28:59,413 --> 00:29:00,213 Speaker 11: they all sort. 541 00:29:00,013 --> 00:29:02,213 Speaker 7: Of come together to try and prevent him. 542 00:29:02,293 --> 00:29:03,013 Speaker 5: The story in the world. 543 00:29:03,053 --> 00:29:05,533 Speaker 11: So it starts off really interesting, Jack, and you're going, oh, 544 00:29:05,533 --> 00:29:07,293 Speaker 11: I love this, Yeah, I love the fact that they're 545 00:29:07,293 --> 00:29:09,453 Speaker 11: all a bit different in it, and they're not you know, 546 00:29:09,973 --> 00:29:13,173 Speaker 11: call them perfect and everything. But then it kind of 547 00:29:13,493 --> 00:29:15,933 Speaker 11: folds into the second half. It kind of action wise 548 00:29:15,973 --> 00:29:18,733 Speaker 11: and story wise, it kind of becomes a pretty predictable 549 00:29:19,093 --> 00:29:21,213 Speaker 11: Marvel flick, not as funny as it could have been. 550 00:29:21,253 --> 00:29:23,693 Speaker 11: I think there was actually too much banter between the cast. 551 00:29:24,093 --> 00:29:27,093 Speaker 11: It really wasn't needed. You do become fond of them 552 00:29:27,093 --> 00:29:28,253 Speaker 11: by the end of the film. I mean, I think 553 00:29:28,253 --> 00:29:31,373 Speaker 11: there'll be another one, and if they can keep surrounding 554 00:29:31,373 --> 00:29:34,173 Speaker 11: Florence Pugh with some good people and maybe just shorten 555 00:29:34,173 --> 00:29:36,253 Speaker 11: out and sharpen up the script a bit, then actually 556 00:29:36,253 --> 00:29:39,933 Speaker 11: this this particular branch of the franchise might fly. 557 00:29:40,213 --> 00:29:43,533 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, well, yeah, it's not for me if I'm 558 00:29:43,533 --> 00:29:45,653 Speaker 3: on a hundred percent of a franchise, But you know what, 559 00:29:45,813 --> 00:29:47,853 Speaker 3: I'm sure it will still do all right at the 560 00:29:47,853 --> 00:29:50,093 Speaker 3: box office. They don't usually lose a whole lot of 561 00:29:50,093 --> 00:29:52,133 Speaker 3: money these Marvel films, which tells us why there are 562 00:29:52,133 --> 00:29:56,813 Speaker 3: so many Thank you. So that's Thunderbolts and Marlon Williams 563 00:29:57,173 --> 00:29:59,893 Speaker 3: our or is the first film franchise could hold us 564 00:29:59,893 --> 00:30:03,133 Speaker 3: about two worlds. Desiree just flip me not to say Jack, 565 00:30:03,173 --> 00:30:06,533 Speaker 3: I saw the Malam Williams docco yesterday, absolutely stunning. His 566 00:30:06,653 --> 00:30:10,173 Speaker 3: voice is perfect for singing Interdi or Maudi. What a 567 00:30:10,213 --> 00:30:14,213 Speaker 3: beautiful soul. And then Desiree uswe wrote this, she said, swoon. 568 00:30:15,773 --> 00:30:18,293 Speaker 3: I'm sure you're not the only one feeling that way, Jack. 569 00:30:18,373 --> 00:30:22,013 Speaker 3: Marlon can sound very Elvis, like when Elvis is singing ballads. Yeah, 570 00:30:22,013 --> 00:30:24,333 Speaker 3: there is something the richness of his voice that has 571 00:30:24,373 --> 00:30:26,773 Speaker 3: that quality. A ninety two ninety two If you want 572 00:30:26,813 --> 00:30:28,733 Speaker 3: to send us a message this morning, right now, it's 573 00:30:28,773 --> 00:30:29,373 Speaker 3: sixteen to. 574 00:30:29,373 --> 00:30:34,173 Speaker 1: Ten Saturday mornings with Jack Day keeping the conversation going 575 00:30:34,213 --> 00:30:37,373 Speaker 1: through the weekend with Bpure dot co dot insad for 576 00:30:37,493 --> 00:30:38,813 Speaker 1: high quality supplements. 577 00:30:38,853 --> 00:30:39,893 Speaker 2: News Talk sa'd be I. 578 00:30:39,933 --> 00:30:42,053 Speaker 3: Tell you what if that Marlon Williams film has kind 579 00:30:42,053 --> 00:30:46,413 Speaker 3: of got you in the mood for New Zealand musical 580 00:30:46,453 --> 00:30:49,773 Speaker 3: documentaries good news.

It's such 589 00:31:14,613 --> 00:31:16,373 Speaker 3: a lovely idea. So anyway, we're going to tell you 590 00:31:16,373 --> 00:31:19,853 Speaker 3: about that show after ten o'clock in our screen time 591 00:31:20,053 --> 00:31:22,573 Speaker 3: segment this morning right now, though it is thirteen minutes 592 00:31:22,613 --> 00:31:25,333 Speaker 3: to ten. Very much looking forward to this week's recipe, 593 00:31:25,413 --> 00:31:28,533 Speaker 3: Nikki Wax reckons that this is one of the easiest 594 00:31:28,573 --> 00:31:31,853 Speaker 3: recipes possible. It's a perfect recipe for when you don't 595 00:31:31,853 --> 00:31:34,613 Speaker 3: have much or anything in the house, and it has 596 00:31:34,653 --> 00:31:36,773 Speaker 3: one of the best names in the game drunken bananas, 597 00:31:36,813 --> 00:31:42,933 Speaker 3: Nikki drunken bananas. Yes, I just love this. 598 00:31:43,053 --> 00:31:45,453 Speaker 13: I have been making this dessert since I reckon I 599 00:31:45,533 --> 00:31:49,493 Speaker 13: was about fourteen and babysitting, and when you were babysitting, 600 00:31:50,093 --> 00:31:53,453 Speaker 13: people always had sugar butter bananas in the house and 601 00:31:53,493 --> 00:31:56,093 Speaker 13: perhaps a little bit of booze. Now I didn't drink 602 00:31:56,133 --> 00:31:58,933 Speaker 13: booze at that age, but I would put a little 603 00:31:58,973 --> 00:32:01,333 Speaker 13: splash of their brandy or rum in these because I'd 604 00:32:01,333 --> 00:32:05,413 Speaker 13: seen Mum do it with crapesyzets, etc. And it is 605 00:32:05,693 --> 00:32:08,653 Speaker 13: just the ball. It is one of those things that 606 00:32:08,733 --> 00:32:11,573 Speaker 13: you know if you don't have. So The background to 607 00:32:11,613 --> 00:32:14,213 Speaker 13: me bringing you this recipe this week is I was 608 00:32:14,253 --> 00:32:16,293 Speaker 13: up in Kaitaia last week, or actually just out of 609 00:32:16,373 --> 00:32:19,693 Speaker 13: there at a hipata, hence my absence on the show, 610 00:32:19,893 --> 00:32:23,013 Speaker 13: and I was cooking for a bunch of wonderful surfing 611 00:32:23,093 --> 00:32:27,013 Speaker 13: women and I hadn't planned to do boozy bananas. But 612 00:32:27,053 --> 00:32:30,613 Speaker 13: on the way to the venue there was Honestly, I 613 00:32:30,613 --> 00:32:32,613 Speaker 13: felt like maybe I'd gotten lost and ended up in 614 00:32:32,653 --> 00:32:36,133 Speaker 13: Thailand or somewhere, because there was this roadside stool selling 615 00:32:36,173 --> 00:32:38,493 Speaker 13: bananas and I was like, excuse me. 616 00:32:38,533 --> 00:32:39,253 Speaker 2: Where I mean? 617 00:32:39,293 --> 00:32:40,613 Speaker 3: I just think it is the only part of the 618 00:32:40,613 --> 00:32:43,213 Speaker 3: country where they can grow bananas. Yeah, it is. 619 00:32:43,573 --> 00:32:46,853 Speaker 13: It is because it's warm and subtropical enough. So I 620 00:32:46,933 --> 00:32:48,973 Speaker 13: brought some bananas. But not only did I do it, 621 00:32:48,973 --> 00:32:52,373 Speaker 13: but the other nine people on the retreat also all 622 00:32:52,413 --> 00:32:55,213 Speaker 13: did the same because as they came past the so 623 00:32:55,213 --> 00:32:57,373 Speaker 13: we had a lot of bananas. So I decided, okay, 624 00:32:57,413 --> 00:33:01,213 Speaker 13: self sourcing, putting no caramelized, boozy, drunken bananas years and 625 00:33:01,253 --> 00:33:04,133 Speaker 13: everybody loved it. And this is why, because within ten 626 00:33:04,173 --> 00:33:05,973 Speaker 13: minutes you have got this on the table from start 627 00:33:06,013 --> 00:33:08,293 Speaker 13: to finish. So look, I peel and slice the bananas 628 00:33:08,293 --> 00:33:11,333 Speaker 13: into about two to three six slices. You kind of 629 00:33:11,373 --> 00:33:13,333 Speaker 13: want them to stay quite big so they don't get 630 00:33:13,733 --> 00:33:17,773 Speaker 13: too mushy, and you want probably a banana and a. 631 00:33:17,653 --> 00:33:18,813 Speaker 7: Bit for each person. 632 00:33:19,853 --> 00:33:22,373 Speaker 13: So four people, four large bananas. These were little, kind 633 00:33:22,373 --> 00:33:24,653 Speaker 13: of lady fingers, so we did a few more. You 634 00:33:24,693 --> 00:33:27,893 Speaker 13: want to melt say three tablespoons of butter and four 635 00:33:27,893 --> 00:33:30,653 Speaker 13: tablespoons of brown sugar in a pan, and just do 636 00:33:30,813 --> 00:33:32,733 Speaker 13: that until it starts to bubble, which is just a 637 00:33:32,773 --> 00:33:34,853 Speaker 13: few minutes, and you don't want to let it go 638 00:33:34,933 --> 00:33:38,173 Speaker 13: too far. Squeeze in the juice of a lemon. It 639 00:33:38,253 --> 00:33:41,533 Speaker 13: kind of just tempers that kind of sugariness. Jack like, 640 00:33:41,573 --> 00:33:44,333 Speaker 13: we want these to be carameized, but sometimes it can 641 00:33:44,373 --> 00:33:46,333 Speaker 13: be a bit cloying, and a little pinch of salt 642 00:33:46,413 --> 00:33:49,773 Speaker 13: is great bringing in that kind of salted caramel element. 643 00:33:49,853 --> 00:33:52,693 Speaker 13: I suppose throw your bananas in the pan after that 644 00:33:52,853 --> 00:33:55,653 Speaker 13: sauce is kind of bubbling away, and then cook it 645 00:33:55,773 --> 00:33:59,893 Speaker 13: until they are softened but definitely not mushy. And these 646 00:33:59,933 --> 00:34:03,133 Speaker 13: particular little lady fingers from up in Northland were just 647 00:34:03,173 --> 00:34:06,013 Speaker 13: perfect because they tend to be just a little bit 648 00:34:06,133 --> 00:34:09,853 Speaker 13: hard in the middle, which was perfect for this dish. 649 00:34:10,053 --> 00:34:13,333 Speaker 13: You can add three tablespoons or a splash or whatever 650 00:34:13,413 --> 00:34:17,293 Speaker 13: of brandy or rum or the host. For us it 651 00:34:17,373 --> 00:34:21,533 Speaker 13: had macedamia rum, which was absolutely amazing. I don't know 652 00:34:21,573 --> 00:34:24,053 Speaker 13: how that worked, but it was amazing, and let the 653 00:34:24,093 --> 00:34:26,293 Speaker 13: sauce bubble away fro another one to two minutes. Essentially 654 00:34:26,293 --> 00:34:29,013 Speaker 13: you're cooking off the alcohol to that so it's safe 655 00:34:29,013 --> 00:34:33,613 Speaker 13: for kids, et cetera. Safe serve these caramelized bananas and 656 00:34:33,613 --> 00:34:37,333 Speaker 13: little bowls or glasses.

It was 780 00:40:40,613 --> 00:40:45,453 Speaker 15: an incredible sort of dramatic, real life performance. It broke 781 00:40:45,493 --> 00:40:48,173 Speaker 15: into the snooker, which we were all glued to, you know, 782 00:40:48,213 --> 00:40:50,733 Speaker 15: it was an incredible moment, and so I've always wanted 783 00:40:50,773 --> 00:40:53,413 Speaker 15: to write about it because it's one of those stories 784 00:40:53,453 --> 00:40:57,133 Speaker 15: that entered mythology very quickly. It became a sort of 785 00:40:57,173 --> 00:41:00,613 Speaker 15: story of sort of sas daring do and kind of 786 00:41:00,653 --> 00:41:04,053 Speaker 15: you know, fighting against the odds. And you know, actually 787 00:41:04,133 --> 00:41:06,933 Speaker 15: that the story itself is much more complicated that it's 788 00:41:07,013 --> 00:41:11,333 Speaker 15: much more interesting. It's a much more dense and conflicted 789 00:41:11,453 --> 00:41:15,213 Speaker 15: story about individuals really and about characters and personality. 790 00:41:15,293 --> 00:41:17,653 Speaker 14: So I've really enjoyed writing this one. It's been great fun. 791 00:41:17,733 --> 00:41:21,333 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a remarkable the amount of detail you're able 792 00:41:21,373 --> 00:41:25,933 Speaker 3: to extract from all sides of you know, of the crisis. 793 00:41:26,093 --> 00:41:28,093 Speaker 3: But just to remind our listeners, can you just give 794 00:41:28,173 --> 00:41:31,693 Speaker 3: us the basic outlines of the hostage crisis? What happened? 795 00:41:32,493 --> 00:41:33,373 Speaker 14: Absolutely so. 796 00:41:33,653 --> 00:41:39,653 Speaker 15: This was in April nineteen eighty, the US Embassy hostage 797 00:41:39,653 --> 00:41:43,373 Speaker 15: crisis was still going on in Tehran, and six armed 798 00:41:43,493 --> 00:41:47,573 Speaker 15: gunmen burst into the Iranian embassy in London and took 799 00:41:47,613 --> 00:41:52,733 Speaker 15: twenty seven hostages. They were young Arabs from a part 800 00:41:52,733 --> 00:41:56,653 Speaker 15: of Iran. They were actually deeply opposed to the Ayatola's regime. 801 00:41:57,173 --> 00:42:01,773 Speaker 15: They were bankrolled by Saddam Hussein. This was an Iraqi plot, 802 00:42:02,093 --> 00:42:06,053 Speaker 15: a deliberate attempt to destabilize the Ayatola and the Iranian regime, 803 00:42:06,413 --> 00:42:11,693 Speaker 15: and it led to this astonishing six days standoff between 804 00:42:12,013 --> 00:42:17,053 Speaker 15: the gunmen inside that building and the police and eventually 805 00:42:17,133 --> 00:42:20,213 Speaker 15: the essays on the outside. I don't want to give 806 00:42:20,213 --> 00:42:23,893 Speaker 15: it away for your readers, but the final denumr moment 807 00:42:23,973 --> 00:42:28,613 Speaker 15: of this story is extraordinary. When the essays end up 808 00:42:28,733 --> 00:42:33,653 Speaker 15: assaulting the building in a full scale, full military. 809 00:42:33,173 --> 00:42:36,373 Speaker 3: Assault as cameras watch on. I suppose is one of 810 00:42:36,413 --> 00:42:38,253 Speaker 3: the kind of critical moments, right, This is one of 811 00:42:38,293 --> 00:42:43,213 Speaker 3: those moments when you know the full capacity of the 812 00:42:43,333 --> 00:42:45,373 Speaker 3: essays is there for the world to see. 813 00:42:46,373 --> 00:42:48,693 Speaker 15: That's right, And you know, the ESAs had never really 814 00:42:48,733 --> 00:42:49,973 Speaker 15: been heard of before this. 815 00:42:50,053 --> 00:42:51,013 Speaker 14: I mean, it was still. 816 00:42:50,773 --> 00:42:54,133 Speaker 15: A very secretive organization at this point. And of course 817 00:42:54,173 --> 00:42:55,813 Speaker 15: we're kind of used to this now it's a live 818 00:42:55,973 --> 00:42:59,693 Speaker 15: rolling news to seeing things happen in real time. This 819 00:42:59,893 --> 00:43:02,653 Speaker 15: was filmed by the television cameras as it took place, 820 00:43:02,733 --> 00:43:05,973 Speaker 15: and in nineteen eighty that was completely unprecedented. 821 00:43:06,413 --> 00:43:09,613 Speaker 14: I want to ever see news relayed this way before. 822 00:43:09,653 --> 00:43:12,253 Speaker 15: I remember it as a seventeen year old watching these 823 00:43:12,293 --> 00:43:15,733 Speaker 15: kind of black clad figures ab sailing down the outside 824 00:43:15,733 --> 00:43:19,613 Speaker 15: of this building, throwingly explosive inside, armed with machine guns 825 00:43:19,773 --> 00:43:22,293 Speaker 15: and then attacking the building. I thought it was a film. 826 00:43:22,653 --> 00:43:25,453 Speaker 15: I thought that accidentally they'd moved across from the Nigga 827 00:43:25,493 --> 00:43:28,133 Speaker 15: to a film. But so it's a very significant moment 828 00:43:28,173 --> 00:43:33,693 Speaker 15: and it had a dramatic impact on Margaret Thatcher's premiership. 829 00:43:34,333 --> 00:43:36,173 Speaker 15: You know, in a way it set the tones she'd 830 00:43:36,213 --> 00:43:38,093 Speaker 15: only been in power for a year by this point, 831 00:43:38,133 --> 00:43:41,333 Speaker 15: and it set the tone for the rest of her 832 00:43:41,333 --> 00:43:44,813 Speaker 15: premiership in many ways, her relationship with the military at 833 00:43:45,053 --> 00:43:48,133 Speaker 15: the Falkland Islands conflict, all of this in a way 834 00:43:48,773 --> 00:43:49,973 Speaker 15: starts from this event. 835 00:43:50,293 --> 00:43:52,813 Speaker 3: I was gonna say, is there an argument to be 836 00:43:52,853 --> 00:43:56,133 Speaker 3: made that the Falkland's conflict might have been avoided, or 837 00:43:56,653 --> 00:43:58,333 Speaker 3: at the very least that missus Etcher might have had 838 00:43:58,373 --> 00:44:01,893 Speaker 3: a different approach to that conflict had this not happened. 839 00:44:02,853 --> 00:44:04,613 Speaker 14: Yes, I think you can make that point. 840 00:44:04,693 --> 00:44:07,253 Speaker 15: Many in the Essays do I mean she believed that 841 00:44:07,373 --> 00:44:11,413 Speaker 15: she had forged a particular relationship with the military, and 842 00:44:11,573 --> 00:44:14,373 Speaker 15: the Essays played a very important role in the Falklands 843 00:44:15,373 --> 00:44:17,333 Speaker 15: and so yes, I mean, I think some of her 844 00:44:17,533 --> 00:44:19,893 Speaker 15: kind of you can see it now these days there's 845 00:44:19,933 --> 00:44:24,173 Speaker 15: rather gung ho attitude towards both terrorism and indeed towards 846 00:44:24,453 --> 00:44:29,373 Speaker 15: international conflict was born on this day in May. 847 00:44:29,413 --> 00:44:33,333 Speaker 14: It was for May when this thing really came down. 848 00:44:33,413 --> 00:44:35,733 Speaker 15: So it was very important for her, I think, and 849 00:44:35,813 --> 00:44:39,733 Speaker 15: she alluded to it throughout her premiership with great pride. 850 00:44:40,213 --> 00:44:43,373 Speaker 3: It's some more broadly being I mean, your subjects in 851 00:44:43,413 --> 00:44:46,293 Speaker 3: your various different roles and with various different heads. Your 852 00:44:46,333 --> 00:44:50,293 Speaker 3: subjects have always had a kind of boy's own quality 853 00:44:50,333 --> 00:44:55,533 Speaker 3: to them, you know, whether it's the British Intelligence services 854 00:44:55,653 --> 00:44:57,453 Speaker 3: or the likes of the essas. What do you think 855 00:44:57,493 --> 00:45:02,093 Speaker 3: has driven your personal interest in and in conflict, in 856 00:45:02,093 --> 00:45:04,573 Speaker 3: intelligence services and spying and that kind of thing. 857 00:45:05,613 --> 00:45:07,053 Speaker 14: Well, I love those kind of stories. 858 00:45:07,053 --> 00:45:09,533 Speaker 15: I mean they are, yes, they're boys' own paper in 859 00:45:09,533 --> 00:45:11,853 Speaker 15: a way, they're kind of you know, they're incredibly exciting 860 00:45:11,853 --> 00:45:14,013 Speaker 15: and adventurous and all of. 861 00:45:13,933 --> 00:45:15,933 Speaker 14: That is wonderful. But actually when you dig. 862 00:45:15,733 --> 00:45:22,053 Speaker 15: Into those stories, they're often much more fascinating than simply 863 00:45:22,173 --> 00:45:26,093 Speaker 15: stories of daring do because these are really stories about 864 00:45:26,133 --> 00:45:30,453 Speaker 15: what ordinary people do in extraordinary situations. And that is 865 00:45:30,493 --> 00:45:33,493 Speaker 15: absolutely true of the Iranian embassy seeds. There were twenty 866 00:45:33,533 --> 00:45:37,133 Speaker 15: six people inside that building. None of them got up 867 00:45:37,173 --> 00:45:39,893 Speaker 15: that morning expecting they were going to be thrust into 868 00:45:39,893 --> 00:45:43,053 Speaker 15: this terrifying drama. And a lot of the story is 869 00:45:43,093 --> 00:45:48,413 Speaker 15: really about how different people respond to terrifying situations they 870 00:45:48,453 --> 00:45:52,093 Speaker 15: can't control. And in that is the story of war, 871 00:45:52,173 --> 00:45:54,373 Speaker 15: that is the story of espionage. That is, in a 872 00:45:54,413 --> 00:45:58,573 Speaker 15: way the sort of secret story behind all conflicts is 873 00:45:58,653 --> 00:46:02,773 Speaker 15: how do individuals react when it really comes down to 874 00:46:02,813 --> 00:46:05,573 Speaker 15: the wire, and I think that's probably what has always 875 00:46:05,573 --> 00:46:06,213 Speaker 15: interested me. 876 00:46:07,093 --> 00:46:09,773 Speaker 3: One of the individuals who doesn't necessarily cover themselves in 877 00:46:09,773 --> 00:46:13,533 Speaker 3: Gloria and not for the first time in the siege 878 00:46:13,653 --> 00:46:17,693 Speaker 3: is Prince Andrew, who rushed down to the embassy almost immediately. 879 00:46:18,573 --> 00:46:21,173 Speaker 15: This is one of the more absurd aspects of this 880 00:46:21,253 --> 00:46:23,973 Speaker 15: story that I knew nothing about before I started writing it. Yes, 881 00:46:24,053 --> 00:46:27,333 Speaker 15: I mean, but the one moment when the police commissioner, 882 00:46:27,333 --> 00:46:29,893 Speaker 15: who was in charge of the whole operation actually lost 883 00:46:29,933 --> 00:46:32,933 Speaker 15: his temper was when Prince Andrew, then the kind of 884 00:46:33,013 --> 00:46:38,173 Speaker 15: young helicopter pilot, demanded Nate, insisted that he'd be allowed 885 00:46:38,293 --> 00:46:42,093 Speaker 15: to come down to police headquarters and witness the siege 886 00:46:42,213 --> 00:46:45,613 Speaker 15: in operation. He was told in no uncertain terms, and 887 00:46:45,733 --> 00:46:48,653 Speaker 15: indeed in terms that one didn't usually use towards royalty, 888 00:46:48,853 --> 00:46:50,373 Speaker 15: that that was not going to happen. 889 00:46:51,053 --> 00:46:57,653 Speaker 3: Yeah. You obviously have forwards really strong and trusting relationships 890 00:46:58,173 --> 00:47:02,213 Speaker 3: with people who either have been or are still in 891 00:47:02,253 --> 00:47:05,933 Speaker 3: pretty secretive worlds. So how do you go about nurturing 892 00:47:05,973 --> 00:47:09,093 Speaker 3: those relationships, whether it's in the intelligence agencies or with 893 00:47:09,173 --> 00:47:10,653 Speaker 3: special force and soldiers in the like. 894 00:47:11,773 --> 00:47:12,733 Speaker 14: Well, it's difficult. 895 00:47:12,973 --> 00:47:16,853 Speaker 15: But that said, everyone in the world wants to tell 896 00:47:16,893 --> 00:47:20,093 Speaker 15: their story, and that goes for people in the secret 897 00:47:20,133 --> 00:47:22,813 Speaker 15: world as much as anyone else. Really, they may be 898 00:47:23,093 --> 00:47:25,333 Speaker 15: kind of prevented in a way by convention and in 899 00:47:25,333 --> 00:47:31,093 Speaker 15: some cases by law, but they're basically human interest in instinct. 900 00:47:30,693 --> 00:47:33,693 Speaker 14: I think, to tell our own narratives. 901 00:47:33,333 --> 00:47:36,093 Speaker 15: So I've been very lucky over the last thirty years 902 00:47:36,133 --> 00:47:38,053 Speaker 15: I've met lots of people from this world. I could 903 00:47:38,093 --> 00:47:41,933 Speaker 15: not have written this book without the cooperation of the 904 00:47:41,933 --> 00:47:45,133 Speaker 15: Ministry of Defense in the UK. The SAS is not 905 00:47:45,213 --> 00:47:49,293 Speaker 15: supposed to talk about operations. Ever, that's a kind of 906 00:47:49,373 --> 00:47:53,493 Speaker 15: a firm rule. In this occasion, After a certain amount 907 00:47:53,493 --> 00:47:57,333 Speaker 15: of badgering from me, they agreed to allow the people 908 00:47:57,613 --> 00:48:01,853 Speaker 15: directly involved in this operation to talk about what had happened. 909 00:48:01,893 --> 00:48:04,173 Speaker 15: And that's really never happened before, and so I was 910 00:48:04,533 --> 00:48:05,533 Speaker 15: hugely grateful for that. 911 00:48:05,613 --> 00:48:08,213 Speaker 14: It allowed me to talk to these people who. 912 00:48:08,173 --> 00:48:11,333 Speaker 15: And there aren't that many of them still alive, who 913 00:48:11,373 --> 00:48:14,933 Speaker 15: had actually witnessed at first hand what happened in the 914 00:48:15,053 --> 00:48:18,973 Speaker 15: closing eleven minutes of Operation Nimrod, And without that, I 915 00:48:18,973 --> 00:48:20,933 Speaker 15: think this book would have been impossible to write, because 916 00:48:20,973 --> 00:48:24,453 Speaker 15: that really gave me the kind of warp and weft 917 00:48:24,613 --> 00:48:27,653 Speaker 15: of what that experience felt like. So yes, I mean 918 00:48:27,693 --> 00:48:32,413 Speaker 15: those personal relationships are absolutely crucial to writing narrative nonfiction 919 00:48:32,653 --> 00:48:32,893 Speaker 15: like this. 920 00:48:33,133 --> 00:48:35,813 Speaker 3: Do you ever worry that, you know, people in those 921 00:48:35,893 --> 00:48:41,373 Speaker 3: kind of positions of secrecy but also power are trying 922 00:48:41,413 --> 00:48:43,453 Speaker 3: to you know, they're put up the facad and say, oh, 923 00:48:43,493 --> 00:48:45,693 Speaker 3: you know, we never tell our stories, never tell us stories. Okay, 924 00:48:45,973 --> 00:48:47,693 Speaker 3: all right, Bean, will tell you our story, and it 925 00:48:47,773 --> 00:48:50,053 Speaker 3: just so happens that we look fantastic out of us. 926 00:48:50,813 --> 00:48:52,173 Speaker 14: Well, you make a very good point. 927 00:48:52,253 --> 00:48:54,933 Speaker 15: I mean, you know, spies and special operations people like 928 00:48:55,013 --> 00:48:58,253 Speaker 15: to tell those stories. When those stories reflect well on them, 929 00:48:58,613 --> 00:49:00,053 Speaker 15: they're much less willing to do. 930 00:49:00,173 --> 00:49:00,333 Speaker 9: So. 931 00:49:00,693 --> 00:49:03,173 Speaker 15: You know, if Operation Nimrod had failed, I don't think 932 00:49:03,173 --> 00:49:05,693 Speaker 15: the Ministry of Defense would be anything like as Keen. 933 00:49:06,453 --> 00:49:07,693 Speaker 14: It wasn't that Keen anyway. 934 00:49:07,773 --> 00:49:09,853 Speaker 15: But you know, to to sort of share the story, 935 00:49:10,053 --> 00:49:12,013 Speaker 15: one has to be a bit careful of that. I mean, 936 00:49:12,053 --> 00:49:15,733 Speaker 15: I'm always a bit nervous and a bit tentative about 937 00:49:15,813 --> 00:49:19,533 Speaker 15: dealing with sort of official bodies, because you know, this 938 00:49:19,613 --> 00:49:22,453 Speaker 15: is not an authorized book. I mean, it's different from 939 00:49:22,573 --> 00:49:24,893 Speaker 15: Sas Rogue Heroes, which I wrote before, which was an 940 00:49:24,933 --> 00:49:28,973 Speaker 15: authorized history of the SAS, and when I started that project, 941 00:49:29,013 --> 00:49:32,173 Speaker 15: I made it absolutely clear that while the SAS was 942 00:49:32,213 --> 00:49:35,533 Speaker 15: allowed to have an opinion about the manuscript, it did 943 00:49:35,533 --> 00:49:36,933 Speaker 15: not have editorial control. 944 00:49:37,493 --> 00:49:39,173 Speaker 14: In this case, it's even firmer. 945 00:49:39,253 --> 00:49:42,653 Speaker 15: They had no control over what I wrote in the 946 00:49:42,693 --> 00:49:45,453 Speaker 15: end at all, and to their credit, they really didn't 947 00:49:45,493 --> 00:49:48,013 Speaker 15: try to. There was only one or two elements of 948 00:49:48,373 --> 00:49:53,133 Speaker 15: what they call contemporary capability. I thinks that would still 949 00:49:53,173 --> 00:49:55,373 Speaker 15: be done today that were done in nineteen eighty and 950 00:49:55,413 --> 00:49:57,653 Speaker 15: as your listeners can imagine, there are a precious few 951 00:49:57,653 --> 00:49:58,013 Speaker 15: of those. 952 00:49:58,933 --> 00:50:00,373 Speaker 14: There were a few of those. 953 00:50:00,213 --> 00:50:02,773 Speaker 15: Where they said, look, please don't put that in the book, 954 00:50:02,813 --> 00:50:04,933 Speaker 15: because you know you don't want to, you don't want 955 00:50:04,973 --> 00:50:06,813 Speaker 15: to enable the other side. And look, I'm not in 956 00:50:06,813 --> 00:50:09,253 Speaker 15: the business of helping terrorists do anything. 957 00:50:09,293 --> 00:50:11,373 Speaker 14: So I was perfectly happy to do that. 958 00:50:11,573 --> 00:50:15,453 Speaker 15: But it's surprising in a way how little control really 959 00:50:16,253 --> 00:50:19,333 Speaker 15: they both have and can have over a project like this. 960 00:50:19,973 --> 00:50:21,693 Speaker 3: You know, am I right and thinking? When you were 961 00:50:21,733 --> 00:50:25,813 Speaker 3: a student you were approached about potentially joining the intelligence citizens. 962 00:50:26,813 --> 00:50:28,373 Speaker 15: Yes, this is one of the reasons why I've made 963 00:50:28,373 --> 00:50:32,693 Speaker 15: a hopeless spy. Is I've kind of revealed this supposed suit. Yes, 964 00:50:32,733 --> 00:50:36,533 Speaker 15: I was approached by by six and I went through 965 00:50:36,733 --> 00:50:40,693 Speaker 15: just the initial stages of recruitment. It became pretty clear 966 00:50:40,693 --> 00:50:43,053 Speaker 15: pretty quickly to both sides. I think that I was 967 00:50:43,133 --> 00:50:45,613 Speaker 15: really not I was not the type to make a 968 00:50:45,653 --> 00:50:49,573 Speaker 15: good spy. I like to reveal secrets. I don't really 969 00:50:49,613 --> 00:50:52,333 Speaker 15: like to keep them. That's why I've had that's a 970 00:50:52,373 --> 00:50:54,173 Speaker 15: only time, you know, as a journalist and as a 971 00:50:54,173 --> 00:50:57,813 Speaker 15: book writer, kind of digging into the secret past. So yeah, 972 00:50:57,813 --> 00:51:00,973 Speaker 15: I was briefly touched and or tapped up, as they 973 00:51:01,013 --> 00:51:02,453 Speaker 15: say in the UK parlance. 974 00:51:02,533 --> 00:51:04,773 Speaker 14: But it was clearly never going to go anywhere. 975 00:51:04,773 --> 00:51:07,013 Speaker 15: But I think it did leave me with is a 976 00:51:07,253 --> 00:51:11,133 Speaker 15: kind of residual fascination with the secret world. I think 977 00:51:11,173 --> 00:51:13,333 Speaker 15: there's a there's a story to be told about the 978 00:51:13,373 --> 00:51:16,933 Speaker 15: secret world in which a non fiction writer can write 979 00:51:16,973 --> 00:51:20,613 Speaker 15: about true stories in a way that nonetheless feels like fiction, 980 00:51:20,733 --> 00:51:23,453 Speaker 15: and that's almost unique to the spy world. 981 00:51:23,213 --> 00:51:27,213 Speaker 3: The narrative nonfiction. Right, it's a yeah, yeah, how does 982 00:51:27,213 --> 00:51:30,013 Speaker 3: the approach work? Do someone just look? You call it tepic? 983 00:51:30,093 --> 00:51:30,253 Speaker 6: Is it? 984 00:51:30,453 --> 00:51:32,893 Speaker 14: I mean, it's it was literally the old fashioned way. 985 00:51:32,933 --> 00:51:36,213 Speaker 15: It was my last university in Cambridge a nest of spies, 986 00:51:36,973 --> 00:51:39,133 Speaker 15: they say, and I was just approached by one of 987 00:51:39,173 --> 00:51:43,173 Speaker 15: my lecturers who said, you know, there are certain people 988 00:51:43,213 --> 00:51:44,013 Speaker 15: I think you ought to meet. 989 00:51:44,093 --> 00:51:44,653 Speaker 14: I mean he never. 990 00:51:44,573 --> 00:51:46,133 Speaker 15: Actually said what it was I was going to do, 991 00:51:46,253 --> 00:51:48,653 Speaker 15: but I was perfectly clear what was going to happen. 992 00:51:48,653 --> 00:51:49,973 Speaker 14: And I went through a couple of interviews. 993 00:51:49,973 --> 00:51:52,733 Speaker 15: But but and I did it more really out of 994 00:51:52,773 --> 00:51:53,813 Speaker 15: sort of curiosity. 995 00:51:53,893 --> 00:51:57,813 Speaker 14: I think I slightly wasted their time. But it's you know, 996 00:51:57,893 --> 00:51:58,413 Speaker 14: it's I. 997 00:51:58,373 --> 00:52:02,573 Speaker 15: Mean, my contacts in that world are always quite amusing 998 00:52:02,693 --> 00:52:05,733 Speaker 15: about They all know that I that was sort of 999 00:52:05,773 --> 00:52:06,533 Speaker 15: at one point. 1000 00:52:06,653 --> 00:52:09,573 Speaker 14: Briefly kind of mentioned as a possibility. 1001 00:52:10,293 --> 00:52:12,853 Speaker 3: What do you think, I mean, your fascination is shared 1002 00:52:12,893 --> 00:52:16,093 Speaker 3: by so many people, including me. But you know, obviously 1003 00:52:16,133 --> 00:52:19,773 Speaker 3: the nature of espionage in the secret world, as you 1004 00:52:19,893 --> 00:52:23,453 Speaker 3: term that has massively changed and continues to change as 1005 00:52:23,493 --> 00:52:26,293 Speaker 3: technology evolves in that sort of thing. What do you 1006 00:52:26,373 --> 00:52:32,253 Speaker 3: think is something that people misunderstand about the operations or 1007 00:52:32,293 --> 00:52:35,213 Speaker 3: capacity of intelligence services. 1008 00:52:36,013 --> 00:52:36,893 Speaker 14: It's a very good question. 1009 00:52:36,933 --> 00:52:39,133 Speaker 15: I mean, I think a lot of people assume today 1010 00:52:39,253 --> 00:52:44,013 Speaker 15: that the whole of intelligence takes place digitally, that really 1011 00:52:44,053 --> 00:52:49,653 Speaker 15: this is now a story about intercepting telephone messages, texts, emails, 1012 00:52:49,693 --> 00:52:52,213 Speaker 15: that it's all taking place in a kind of cyber world, 1013 00:52:52,453 --> 00:52:55,093 Speaker 15: and to a considered extent, that is the great development 1014 00:52:55,133 --> 00:52:58,573 Speaker 15: of modern espiona. You know, it does take place up 1015 00:52:58,573 --> 00:53:00,813 Speaker 15: there and needs a lot of it, but not all 1016 00:53:00,893 --> 00:53:05,613 Speaker 15: of it, because human intelligence is as important today as 1017 00:53:05,653 --> 00:53:08,933 Speaker 15: it ever was, in fact arguably even more important. 1018 00:53:09,053 --> 00:53:11,893 Speaker 14: You know, knowing. 1019 00:53:11,773 --> 00:53:14,733 Speaker 15: Who your enemy is, being able to put a face 1020 00:53:14,813 --> 00:53:18,293 Speaker 15: to him or her, being able to talk to people 1021 00:53:18,333 --> 00:53:21,853 Speaker 15: in crowded bars and work out whether they are telling 1022 00:53:21,853 --> 00:53:22,533 Speaker 15: you the truth. 1023 00:53:23,413 --> 00:53:25,653 Speaker 14: That is still, I would say. 1024 00:53:25,453 --> 00:53:30,013 Speaker 15: The essence of all espionage, and without it, cyber espionage 1025 00:53:30,053 --> 00:53:30,653 Speaker 15: doesn't work. 1026 00:53:30,893 --> 00:53:31,453 Speaker 13: Yeah. 1027 00:53:31,533 --> 00:53:35,533 Speaker 3: Well, being we love your work.

Hey Tara, 1070 00:55:38,173 --> 00:55:42,133 Speaker 3: good morning. Okay, you got three cracking recommendations I reckon 1071 00:55:42,133 --> 00:55:44,773 Speaker 3: this morning. So let's begin with the show streaming on 1072 00:55:44,933 --> 00:55:47,533 Speaker 3: Neon tell us about Choir Games. 1073 00:55:48,093 --> 00:55:51,613 Speaker 12: Yeah, this is a really heartwarming new four part documentary 1074 00:55:51,613 --> 00:55:54,693 Speaker 12: series that drops on Neon from tomorrow, and it's about 1075 00:55:54,693 --> 00:55:58,013 Speaker 12: two choirs as they prepare for the World Choir Games, 1076 00:55:58,013 --> 00:56:00,613 Speaker 12: which were held in Auckland last year. One of the 1077 00:56:00,693 --> 00:56:03,213 Speaker 12: choirs is a youth choir from New York City which 1078 00:56:03,293 --> 00:56:06,213 Speaker 12: is made up of teenagers who have had a tough 1079 00:56:06,453 --> 00:56:08,893 Speaker 12: life or who are struggling a bit. And the other 1080 00:56:08,973 --> 00:56:12,813 Speaker 12: choir is from Katya and as much smaller and very 1081 00:56:12,893 --> 00:56:15,853 Speaker 12: much a local community choir. So it's following two very 1082 00:56:15,853 --> 00:56:19,013 Speaker 12: different groups on their journey to the games. But what's 1083 00:56:19,053 --> 00:56:22,013 Speaker 12: wonderful about this series is that you see the similarities 1084 00:56:22,053 --> 00:56:25,493 Speaker 12: between the two groups and the way that singing gives 1085 00:56:25,533 --> 00:56:28,733 Speaker 12: people in the choir a purpose and belonging in a 1086 00:56:28,813 --> 00:56:32,213 Speaker 12: sense of pride. We watch them practice, we get to 1087 00:56:32,213 --> 00:56:35,093 Speaker 12: know the singers, we see them compete, and you get 1088 00:56:35,133 --> 00:56:38,253 Speaker 12: to understand why singing and why the choir is so 1089 00:56:38,293 --> 00:56:41,293 Speaker 12: important to them. And there's something about watching people sing 1090 00:56:41,333 --> 00:56:44,973 Speaker 12: together that always makes me feel emotional, and this documentary 1091 00:56:44,973 --> 00:56:48,893 Speaker 12: series is channeling that. It captures that emotional power of 1092 00:56:49,733 --> 00:56:52,493 Speaker 12: people coming together from all walks of life, all corners 1093 00:56:52,493 --> 00:56:55,573 Speaker 12: of the globe. It's directed by Leanne Pauley, who also 1094 00:56:55,613 --> 00:56:58,493 Speaker 12: made the Top Twins Untouchable Girls documentary. She made the 1095 00:56:58,573 --> 00:57:01,293 Speaker 12: Valerie Adams documentary. So we're in really good hands here, 1096 00:57:02,413 --> 00:57:04,453 Speaker 12: and I think because it's got those links to us 1097 00:57:04,453 --> 00:57:06,813 Speaker 12: here in New Zealand with that wonderful choir from Tire, 1098 00:57:07,093 --> 00:57:09,973 Speaker 12: that just makes this even more special and relatable. It's 1099 00:57:10,093 --> 00:57:12,533 Speaker 12: just a really lovely, uplifting series. 1100 00:57:12,973 --> 00:57:15,573 Speaker 3: Great. I cannot wait to see that. So that's quiet Game. 1101 00:57:15,693 --> 00:57:19,773 Speaker 3: That's on Neon from tomorrow, streaming on Netflix. Tell Us 1102 00:57:19,773 --> 00:57:21,213 Speaker 3: about the Four Seasons. 1103 00:57:22,173 --> 00:57:25,773 Speaker 12: This is a new comedy starring Tina Fey and Steve Carrell. 1104 00:57:25,813 --> 00:57:28,613 Speaker 12: It's a remake of an old film by Alan Alder, 1105 00:57:28,733 --> 00:57:31,293 Speaker 12: and Tina Fey has remade it and written it with 1106 00:57:32,093 --> 00:57:34,733 Speaker 12: a couple of other writers from thirty Rock, So you've 1107 00:57:34,733 --> 00:57:37,133 Speaker 12: got some really good comedy bones here. And the show 1108 00:57:37,213 --> 00:57:41,173 Speaker 12: is about three married couples who have been friends for 1109 00:57:41,213 --> 00:57:44,013 Speaker 12: a long time for instance, college, and who meet up 1110 00:57:44,053 --> 00:57:46,293 Speaker 12: four times a year for a weeknd a way together. 1111 00:57:47,293 --> 00:57:49,973 Speaker 12: One of the couples decides to divorce after twenty five 1112 00:57:50,053 --> 00:57:52,693 Speaker 12: years of marriage, and the series is about the fallout 1113 00:57:52,893 --> 00:57:56,573 Speaker 12: fallout from that separation as the dynamics and the group 1114 00:57:56,613 --> 00:57:59,853 Speaker 12: shift between the friends and family and lives change and 1115 00:57:59,853 --> 00:58:04,653 Speaker 12: those sort of long howled, unshakable relationships and friendships begin 1116 00:58:04,733 --> 00:58:07,653 Speaker 12: to change over the next twelve months. It's a very 1117 00:58:07,773 --> 00:58:11,053 Speaker 12: gentle warm kind of comedy, not necessarily that laugh out 1118 00:58:11,093 --> 00:58:14,853 Speaker 12: loud kind of humor, but it's more sort of about 1119 00:58:14,853 --> 00:58:20,253 Speaker 12: the rye observations about getting older and relationships changing and 1120 00:58:20,293 --> 00:58:22,613 Speaker 12: trying not to have a mid life crisis but having one. Anyway, 1121 00:58:23,773 --> 00:58:26,173 Speaker 12: eight half hour episodes, this would be kind of a 1122 00:58:26,333 --> 00:58:29,013 Speaker 12: very pleasant binge watch on a Sunday afternoon kind of show. 1123 00:58:29,093 --> 00:58:31,693 Speaker 3: Yeah.

It's about a real 1127 00:58:41,813 --> 00:58:45,493 Speaker 12: life figure called Antonine Karame, who was effectively the world's 1128 00:58:45,533 --> 00:58:48,933 Speaker 12: first celebrity chef back in the early eighteen hundreds. 1129 00:58:48,973 --> 00:58:50,453 Speaker 2: He was French. 1130 00:58:50,533 --> 00:58:53,613 Speaker 12: He was born into poverty, but adopted by a baker 1131 00:58:53,653 --> 00:58:58,293 Speaker 12: and became a talented pastry chef.

He's got swagger, he's 1136 00:59:11,613 --> 00:59:14,413 Speaker 12: got sex appeal, he's a bit of a rebel. The 1137 00:59:14,413 --> 00:59:16,813 Speaker 12: show does take a few historical liberties. He ends up 1138 00:59:16,853 --> 00:59:19,773 Speaker 12: being a spy for Napoleon and the show but you 1139 00:59:19,933 --> 00:59:21,773 Speaker 12: kind of just go along with it because it's that 1140 00:59:21,893 --> 00:59:24,253 Speaker 12: kind of show. It's it's set in the eighteen hundreds. 1141 00:59:24,253 --> 00:59:28,013 Speaker 12: It feels very modern. It's very sumptuous and beautiful.

Yesterday he released this it 1168 01:01:08,613 --> 01:01:12,613 Speaker 3: is Slice of Heaven Paradise version. He released it to 1169 01:01:12,813 --> 01:01:16,613 Speaker 3: coincide with the fiftieth anniversary of New Zealand's official music charts, 1170 01:01:16,733 --> 01:01:20,893 Speaker 3: but it is also funny enough coinciding with the announcement 1171 01:01:20,893 --> 01:01:23,453 Speaker 3: that he will get the band back together, The Dudes, 1172 01:01:23,493 --> 01:01:26,573 Speaker 3: that is, for a very special one off performance at 1173 01:01:26,533 --> 01:01:28,893 Speaker 3: Auckland's Town Hall as part of the Winter series. I 1174 01:01:28,893 --> 01:01:32,333 Speaker 3: could believe this. Dave Dobbin has never played at the 1175 01:01:32,373 --> 01:01:36,693 Speaker 3: Auckland Town Hall before. What anyway, He's going into a 1176 01:01:36,693 --> 01:01:40,333 Speaker 3: bit of a deep dive into his extraordinary back catalog 1177 01:01:40,413 --> 01:01:44,413 Speaker 3: for the show. So our music correspondent the Stelle Clifford 1178 01:01:44,653 --> 01:01:46,853 Speaker 3: is going to join us perform midday with more details, 1179 01:01:46,893 --> 01:01:48,853 Speaker 3: and we're going to take a cheeky guess at what 1180 01:01:49,013 --> 01:01:51,933 Speaker 3: Deep Cuts might be on the set list when he 1181 01:01:52,013 --> 01:01:55,853 Speaker 3: performs at Auckland's town Hall. Here's the funny thing, A 1182 01:01:55,853 --> 01:01:59,053 Speaker 3: funny relationship I have with this song back in the day. 1183 01:01:59,213 --> 01:02:02,133 Speaker 3: I mean obviously a classic, right if not the classic 1184 01:02:02,293 --> 01:02:06,773 Speaker 3: in New Zealand. So back in the day, I was 1185 01:02:07,453 --> 01:02:09,533 Speaker 3: for a brief and glorious window of my life, a 1186 01:02:09,613 --> 01:02:13,173 Speaker 3: weddings and twenty first DJ. So when I was about 1187 01:02:13,333 --> 01:02:15,373 Speaker 3: I think I started when I was about seventeen or so. 1188 01:02:15,853 --> 01:02:20,053 Speaker 3: It was kind of one of my first gigs and 1189 01:02:20,133 --> 01:02:24,213 Speaker 3: literally gigs. So I would go round in Canterbury and 1190 01:02:24,533 --> 01:02:27,173 Speaker 3: I had this kind of speaker setup that just squeezed 1191 01:02:27,173 --> 01:02:29,853 Speaker 3: into the back of my Honda City, my first car. 1192 01:02:30,173 --> 01:02:32,093 Speaker 3: You had to pack it just the right way otherwise 1193 01:02:32,093 --> 01:02:33,813 Speaker 3: I couldn't get the speakers and the lights in there. 1194 01:02:34,053 --> 01:02:36,533 Speaker 3: And anyway, I go off to usually twenty firsts around 1195 01:02:36,533 --> 01:02:39,973 Speaker 3: the place, sometimes school disc goes, sometimes weddings as well, 1196 01:02:40,413 --> 01:02:43,653 Speaker 3: and no matter what the event was, I always ended 1197 01:02:43,653 --> 01:02:45,853 Speaker 3: the night. The last song of the night was always 1198 01:02:45,893 --> 01:02:47,653 Speaker 3: Slice of Heaven because I always knew you, I mean, 1199 01:02:47,693 --> 01:02:49,333 Speaker 3: you'd have people up on the dance for way, then 1200 01:02:49,493 --> 01:02:52,253 Speaker 3: I would be partying away and I always finish things 1201 01:02:52,253 --> 01:02:54,733 Speaker 3: with Slice of Heaven. And to this day, twenty years on, 1202 01:02:54,893 --> 01:02:57,613 Speaker 3: anytime I hear that song, it takes me back right 1203 01:02:57,813 --> 01:03:00,333 Speaker 3: twenty five to eleven.

Paul Stenhouse is our texpert 1226 01:03:51,453 --> 01:03:54,213 Speaker 3: end is here this morning, Hey, Paul, So, Apple has 1227 01:03:54,253 --> 01:03:57,893 Speaker 3: given a few more details on the US tariffs and 1228 01:03:58,013 --> 01:04:02,173 Speaker 3: its strategy to try and keep iPhones and macbox and 1229 01:04:02,173 --> 01:04:03,773 Speaker 3: that kind of thing as cheap as possible. 1230 01:04:04,173 --> 01:04:04,373 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1231 01:04:04,373 --> 01:04:07,173 Speaker 6: Well, remember they filled up a plane jack to try 1232 01:04:07,213 --> 01:04:09,933 Speaker 6: to get as many iPhones into the United States as 1233 01:04:09,933 --> 01:04:14,413 Speaker 6: possible when these tariffs were first talked about, and they've 1234 01:04:14,453 --> 01:04:17,973 Speaker 6: now said in their latest earnings call that basically your iPhone, 1235 01:04:17,973 --> 01:04:20,853 Speaker 6: if you're buying it in the United States in the 1236 01:04:20,893 --> 01:04:23,933 Speaker 6: next couple of months, will be coming from India, right, 1237 01:04:24,213 --> 01:04:27,933 Speaker 6: while your iPad, mac Apple Watch AirPods they're going to 1238 01:04:27,973 --> 01:04:31,773 Speaker 6: be coming from Vietnam, right. And so basically the rest 1239 01:04:31,813 --> 01:04:34,173 Speaker 6: of the world is going to be getting the output 1240 01:04:34,333 --> 01:04:37,733 Speaker 6: of the China factory. Right, So they're going to take 1241 01:04:37,773 --> 01:04:39,853 Speaker 6: all that product that they typically make in China, send 1242 01:04:39,893 --> 01:04:42,253 Speaker 6: that around the world, and in the USA it's going 1243 01:04:42,293 --> 01:04:42,773 Speaker 6: to get its. 1244 01:04:42,693 --> 01:04:44,013 Speaker 2: Own special products. 1245 01:04:44,773 --> 01:04:47,733 Speaker 6: But it's really interesting to note though, right they say 1246 01:04:47,733 --> 01:04:51,493 Speaker 6: that if nothing else about these tariffs change, because who 1247 01:04:51,493 --> 01:04:55,893 Speaker 6: knows they could change. They seem to change daily. The 1248 01:04:56,053 --> 01:04:58,893 Speaker 6: current estimate is that it will cost them just for 1249 01:04:58,933 --> 01:05:02,853 Speaker 6: this one quarter nine hundred million US dollars. 1250 01:05:03,133 --> 01:05:07,653 Speaker 3: Whoa, okay, so yeah, crazy, like one point New Zealand's yeah, 1251 01:05:07,653 --> 01:05:09,653 Speaker 3: my gosh billion, yeah billion. 1252 01:05:10,013 --> 01:05:10,253 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1253 01:05:10,333 --> 01:05:12,133 Speaker 6: And so you know, they also are putting out their 1254 01:05:12,133 --> 01:05:17,013 Speaker 6: guidance their investors saying that because again nothing changing, Yeah, 1255 01:05:17,293 --> 01:05:21,413 Speaker 6: imports going forward will actually be exempt from the tariffs 1256 01:05:21,453 --> 01:05:24,853 Speaker 6: because Trump put in that that carve out for semiconductors 1257 01:05:24,893 --> 01:05:27,493 Speaker 6: and electronic goods and things like that. So this is 1258 01:05:27,533 --> 01:05:29,493 Speaker 6: sort of like the one quarter where Apple is going 1259 01:05:29,533 --> 01:05:33,493 Speaker 6: to have to eat it at nine hundred million US dollars. 1260 01:05:34,013 --> 01:05:37,813 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's amazing. I just imagined logistically, because obviously all 1261 01:05:37,853 --> 01:05:41,013 Speaker 3: those companies are pretty advanced and their you know, production 1262 01:05:41,133 --> 01:05:43,213 Speaker 3: strategies and all that kind of thing. Just imagine trying 1263 01:05:43,253 --> 01:05:46,093 Speaker 3: to change all of the logistics for your production and 1264 01:05:46,173 --> 01:05:49,653 Speaker 3: exports effectively overnight as they've had to do. So, Yeah, 1265 01:05:49,653 --> 01:05:52,133 Speaker 3: it'd be very interesting to see how things unfold, be it, 1266 01:05:52,293 --> 01:05:57,773 Speaker 3: and I suppose for the time being, unless you know, unless, 1267 01:05:57,853 --> 01:06:01,333 Speaker 3: unless there are other big changes and changes between our relationship, 1268 01:06:01,373 --> 01:06:06,693 Speaker 3: New Zealand's relationship with China trading relationship then basically ies 1269 01:06:06,773 --> 01:06:09,213 Speaker 3: and MacBooks and everything is still going to be the 1270 01:06:09,253 --> 01:06:11,813 Speaker 3: same price, just as expensive as they've always been in 1271 01:06:11,853 --> 01:06:14,853 Speaker 3: New Zealand. And whether or not they're cheaper or expensive 1272 01:06:15,133 --> 01:06:18,773 Speaker 3: relative to products bought in the US, I suppose depends 1273 01:06:18,773 --> 01:06:22,173 Speaker 3: on whether or not those policies change. So yeah, hey, 1274 01:06:22,173 --> 01:06:25,373 Speaker 3: Meta is working to make WhatsApp AI chats a little 1275 01:06:25,413 --> 01:06:26,253 Speaker 3: bit more private. 1276 01:06:26,933 --> 01:06:30,413 Speaker 6: Yeah, Privacy obviously front and center when it comes to 1277 01:06:30,533 --> 01:06:33,653 Speaker 6: just you know, sending information up to the cloud, right, 1278 01:06:33,733 --> 01:06:36,733 Speaker 6: and so as you're sending more and more personal data 1279 01:06:37,213 --> 01:06:41,493 Speaker 6: and having conversations with your AI agent, obviously that's important too. 1280 01:06:41,573 --> 01:06:45,253 Speaker 6: And so Meta is basically calling what creating what they 1281 01:06:45,293 --> 01:06:49,133 Speaker 6: call private processing. So what effectively is is that when 1282 01:06:49,213 --> 01:06:51,733 Speaker 6: you start having your chat with your AI agent, it's 1283 01:06:51,773 --> 01:06:56,053 Speaker 6: working in your own little say Jack Tame bubble right. Effectively, 1284 01:06:56,053 --> 01:06:58,373 Speaker 6: it's running like you know, it's own software in the cloud. 1285 01:06:58,813 --> 01:07:01,413 Speaker 6: You know, it's not doing it in something that shared. 1286 01:07:02,213 --> 01:07:05,773 Speaker 6: Thus saying that Meta what'sapp. Because Meta obviously owns WhatsApp 1287 01:07:06,053 --> 01:07:07,933 Speaker 6: or any of their third parties, they can't see what's 1288 01:07:07,973 --> 01:07:10,173 Speaker 6: going on, So that's going to stay completely private to you. 1289 01:07:10,853 --> 01:07:12,773 Speaker 6: It is optional though it's in the process of being 1290 01:07:12,813 --> 01:07:14,533 Speaker 6: rolled out, and when it does get rolled out for you. 1291 01:07:14,533 --> 01:07:16,493 Speaker 6: You'll actually have to go in and select to use 1292 01:07:17,013 --> 01:07:20,573 Speaker 6: private processing private mode. But it's interesting because Apple's doing 1293 01:07:20,573 --> 01:07:22,813 Speaker 6: this too. Apples strategy is a little bit different. They're 1294 01:07:22,853 --> 01:07:24,613 Speaker 6: going to try and do as much processing as they 1295 01:07:24,653 --> 01:07:28,093 Speaker 6: can on your device, which is why your new iPhone 1296 01:07:28,133 --> 01:07:31,893 Speaker 6: has these, you know, especially design AI chips, and then 1297 01:07:31,933 --> 01:07:33,933 Speaker 6: they go to the cloud and go into private mode 1298 01:07:34,133 --> 01:07:36,933 Speaker 6: only when they need to where Metas strategy is, we're 1299 01:07:36,933 --> 01:07:38,733 Speaker 6: going to do everything in the cloud, but hey, we're 1300 01:07:38,773 --> 01:07:40,493 Speaker 6: going to try to keep this private where we can. 1301 01:07:40,653 --> 01:07:43,333 Speaker 3: Yeah, very good, Okay, Hey, thanks, Paul, appreciate your time. 1302 01:07:43,373 --> 01:07:46,853 Speaker 3: That is our texpert, Paul Steenhouse. We're in the garden 1303 01:07:46,893 --> 01:07:50,053 Speaker 3: before eleven o'clock right now, though it's eighteen minutes to eleven. 1304 01:07:50,493 --> 01:07:52,093 Speaker 2: A little bit of way to kick off your weekend. 1305 01:07:52,293 --> 01:07:55,973 Speaker 1: Then with Jack Saturday Mornings with Jack Tam and bepwured 1306 01:07:56,013 --> 01:07:59,493 Speaker 1: dot co dot nz for high quality supplements use talksb 1307 01:07:59,733 --> 01:08:00,213 Speaker 1: it's got. 1308 01:08:00,053 --> 01:08:02,533 Speaker 3: It to eleven on your Saturday morning, and we're talking 1309 01:08:02,573 --> 01:08:05,853 Speaker 3: personal finance with Ed McKnight from Opie's Partners this morning 1310 01:08:05,853 --> 01:08:09,173 Speaker 3: and has this thing called an economists pay Routine and 1311 01:08:09,333 --> 01:08:12,733 Speaker 3: alternative to budgeting that will help you budget, which seems 1312 01:08:12,733 --> 01:08:14,253 Speaker 3: counterintuitive that he's here this morning. 1313 01:08:14,253 --> 01:08:16,893 Speaker 18: Hey, ed, great to talk Peter Jack. 1314 01:08:17,013 --> 01:08:19,053 Speaker 3: Yeah, great to speak with you. So run us through 1315 01:08:19,093 --> 01:08:21,733 Speaker 3: your steps here, because this is really cunning. Basically that's 1316 01:08:21,733 --> 01:08:24,173 Speaker 3: fair right, a way to budget without budgeting. 1317 01:08:25,093 --> 01:08:27,693 Speaker 18: Well, the trouble is, if you ask pretty much any 1318 01:08:27,693 --> 01:08:30,213 Speaker 18: New Zealander how do you get better with money? Everybody 1319 01:08:30,253 --> 01:08:33,213 Speaker 18: would say got to do a budget, and probably ninety 1320 01:08:33,293 --> 01:08:35,933 Speaker 18: nine percent of your your listeners, except for the accountants 1321 01:08:35,973 --> 01:08:39,053 Speaker 18: out there, would probably be saying, yeah, we should budget. 1322 01:08:39,093 --> 01:08:43,413 Speaker 18: But most people don't except for those accountants. And so 1323 01:08:43,653 --> 01:08:45,813 Speaker 18: despite the fact that we all know we probably should 1324 01:08:45,853 --> 01:08:48,173 Speaker 18: be keeping better track of where our money's going, most 1325 01:08:48,213 --> 01:08:50,493 Speaker 18: people don't. And so I think, rather than telling you 1326 01:08:50,533 --> 01:08:53,573 Speaker 18: to do something that you're probably not going to do, 1327 01:08:53,613 --> 01:08:56,053 Speaker 18: just start automating your money. And what I mean by 1328 01:08:56,053 --> 01:08:58,733 Speaker 18: that is put it into some buckets. And probably the 1329 01:08:58,773 --> 01:09:01,893 Speaker 18: best system I've seen comes from Australian guy called the 1330 01:09:01,893 --> 01:09:05,413 Speaker 18: Barefoot Investor. And what he basically says is take sixty 1331 01:09:05,453 --> 01:09:07,933 Speaker 18: percent of your pay. It doesn't matter how much you 1332 01:09:07,973 --> 01:09:09,973 Speaker 18: get paid. Everybody can do the sixty percent of the 1333 01:09:09,973 --> 01:09:12,933 Speaker 18: pay that's going to be on what he calls your 1334 01:09:12,933 --> 01:09:16,573 Speaker 18: blove account. So just every day standard living, your rates 1335 01:09:16,573 --> 01:09:18,253 Speaker 18: and all of that stuff you've just got to pay for. 1336 01:09:18,573 --> 01:09:20,973 Speaker 18: Right then we take a small amount of it, call 1337 01:09:21,053 --> 01:09:23,773 Speaker 18: it ten percent. That's just for your little splurges, and 1338 01:09:23,813 --> 01:09:26,653 Speaker 18: you should just automatically transfer it. And you can set 1339 01:09:26,693 --> 01:09:29,613 Speaker 18: this up automatic transfer across to an account called your 1340 01:09:29,613 --> 01:09:32,733 Speaker 18: splurge account. That's for your coffees or your movie tickets, 1341 01:09:32,733 --> 01:09:35,173 Speaker 18: anything fun you want to do over the weekend. We 1342 01:09:35,173 --> 01:09:37,733 Speaker 18: can have a little allowance as well that he calls smile, 1343 01:09:37,813 --> 01:09:40,773 Speaker 18: that'll be ten percent. That's for your holiday savings. Will 1344 01:09:40,813 --> 01:09:43,253 Speaker 18: say that it's to birthday presents. But here's the really 1345 01:09:43,293 --> 01:09:47,173 Speaker 18: important one. We want to also be automatically transferring twenty 1346 01:09:47,213 --> 01:09:50,413 Speaker 18: percent of our pay whatever's left over, that's going to 1347 01:09:50,413 --> 01:09:54,133 Speaker 18: be our fire extinguisher. Now we can use that to either. 1348 01:09:56,413 --> 01:10:00,893 Speaker 3: Well are you there ed? Oh sorry here, yeah, we 1349 01:10:00,933 --> 01:10:03,333 Speaker 3: lost you for just a second. How so go It's 1350 01:10:03,333 --> 01:10:05,213 Speaker 3: called a fire extinguisher account. 1351 01:10:04,933 --> 01:10:07,093 Speaker 18: The fire extinguisher. So we can take twenty percent of 1352 01:10:07,133 --> 01:10:09,613 Speaker 18: our pay. We're going to put that against credit cards 1353 01:10:09,693 --> 01:10:13,453 Speaker 18: or personal loans any high interest here or also savings 1354 01:10:13,493 --> 01:10:16,853 Speaker 18: and or property or investments or shares whatever it happens 1355 01:10:16,893 --> 01:10:19,573 Speaker 18: to be, and that's how we're going to get ahead financially. 1356 01:10:19,853 --> 01:10:22,293 Speaker 18: And the main thing I encourage people to do is 1357 01:10:22,413 --> 01:10:25,013 Speaker 18: automate their money so they don't have to think about it. 1358 01:10:25,013 --> 01:10:27,413 Speaker 18: Because if you've got to think about a can need 1359 01:10:27,413 --> 01:10:30,773 Speaker 18: to transfer this amount of money into into a movie budget, 1360 01:10:30,853 --> 01:10:33,573 Speaker 18: orm coffee account, and I've got to transfer twenty percent 1361 01:10:33,653 --> 01:10:37,533 Speaker 18: into savings and investments. You have to make that decision 1362 01:10:37,653 --> 01:10:40,813 Speaker 18: every single week or fortnite or month that you get paid, 1363 01:10:41,213 --> 01:10:43,333 Speaker 18: and it's really important if you automate it, you only 1364 01:10:43,373 --> 01:10:46,453 Speaker 18: have to make that decision once. So I often encourage people, 1365 01:10:46,653 --> 01:10:48,573 Speaker 18: whether you want to invest in shares, whether you want 1366 01:10:48,613 --> 01:10:51,653 Speaker 18: to invest in property, set up that account and just 1367 01:10:52,053 --> 01:10:54,853 Speaker 18: make it an automatic habit so you don't have to 1368 01:10:54,933 --> 01:10:57,653 Speaker 18: think about it every single time. Now I do this 1369 01:10:57,773 --> 01:11:00,613 Speaker 18: myself my accounts, and if I logged into an ASB 1370 01:11:00,733 --> 01:11:03,493 Speaker 18: account and showed you today, Jack, they are called blow, 1371 01:11:03,613 --> 01:11:06,773 Speaker 18: they are called smile, they called spillurgs, they called fire extentisher. 1372 01:11:07,053 --> 01:11:09,213 Speaker 18: And this has changed my money life. I used to 1373 01:11:09,213 --> 01:11:12,853 Speaker 18: be horredic with money, and as soon as I started 1374 01:11:12,973 --> 01:11:16,293 Speaker 18: using a system like this, that has completely changed. Because 1375 01:11:16,293 --> 01:11:17,893 Speaker 18: I'm not one of those people who is going to 1376 01:11:17,933 --> 01:11:20,813 Speaker 18: have a spreadsheet and account for every single dollar of 1377 01:11:20,973 --> 01:11:21,773 Speaker 18: where it's going to go. 1378 01:11:22,013 --> 01:11:25,733 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you're really onto something here. My sister 1379 01:11:25,813 --> 01:11:28,013 Speaker 3: does exactly this. Her and my brother in law have 1380 01:11:28,093 --> 01:11:30,013 Speaker 3: this where they have the different accounts and just everything's 1381 01:11:30,053 --> 01:11:32,493 Speaker 3: automated and so, like you said, they're able to kind 1382 01:11:32,493 --> 01:11:34,613 Speaker 3: of keep on top of things and they engage with 1383 01:11:34,653 --> 01:11:36,973 Speaker 3: their money, but it's all automated, so they're not at 1384 01:11:36,973 --> 01:11:39,653 Speaker 3: the start of every month kind of meticulously going through everything. 1385 01:11:39,693 --> 01:11:41,253 Speaker 3: And it just seems like it's a really kind of 1386 01:11:41,333 --> 01:11:44,493 Speaker 3: effective mechanism. And also there's a simple way of just 1387 01:11:44,533 --> 01:11:48,133 Speaker 3: taking advantage of the benefits of, you know, banking in 1388 01:11:48,173 --> 01:11:50,253 Speaker 3: a digital world day, Like it's easy to set up 1389 01:11:50,253 --> 01:11:52,573 Speaker 3: an account called a splurge account, it's easy to set 1390 01:11:52,613 --> 01:11:55,493 Speaker 3: up an account called a fire extinguisher account. This isn't 1391 01:11:55,533 --> 01:11:56,133 Speaker 3: too complex. 1392 01:11:56,973 --> 01:11:58,693 Speaker 18: Yeah, And the thing is, you get some funny looks 1393 01:11:58,693 --> 01:12:01,333 Speaker 18: when you go and apply to get a mortgage. But 1394 01:12:01,533 --> 01:12:05,013 Speaker 18: it's really interesting the people who do this. They give 1395 01:12:05,053 --> 01:12:07,133 Speaker 18: you a little smile when they they look at what 1396 01:12:07,133 --> 01:12:09,093 Speaker 18: your accounts are called and they go, oh, I know 1397 01:12:09,133 --> 01:12:11,733 Speaker 18: what you're doing here. And one other fascinating thing there 1398 01:12:11,773 --> 01:12:13,933 Speaker 18: was A really great study I always talk about comes 1399 01:12:13,933 --> 01:12:17,493 Speaker 18: from the University of Chicago and what a guy called 1400 01:12:17,573 --> 01:12:21,733 Speaker 18: Richard Saylor came out with this idea that mental accounting matters. 1401 01:12:21,933 --> 01:12:23,733 Speaker 18: And what he basically said is, look, you could come 1402 01:12:23,813 --> 01:12:26,653 Speaker 18: up with a spreadsheet, you could particulously decide where every 1403 01:12:26,733 --> 01:12:31,413 Speaker 18: cent and dollar goes. But what works almost exactly as 1404 01:12:31,413 --> 01:12:34,733 Speaker 18: well is just having these little mental rules of thumb. 1405 01:12:34,813 --> 01:12:36,413 Speaker 18: Now you don't have to use the one that our 1406 01:12:36,653 --> 01:12:41,253 Speaker 18: I outlined today. Another common one is fifty thirty twenty, 1407 01:12:41,293 --> 01:12:43,733 Speaker 18: Fifty percent of your money goes to needs, thirty percent 1408 01:12:43,813 --> 01:12:47,173 Speaker 18: goes to once, twenty percent goes to long term savings 1409 01:12:47,253 --> 01:12:51,213 Speaker 18: or paying down debt, whatever the numbers work out for you. 1410 01:12:51,373 --> 01:12:53,893 Speaker 18: I encourage people to speak to their partner or to 1411 01:12:53,933 --> 01:12:56,173 Speaker 18: themselves if that single, and just be like, okay, what 1412 01:12:56,213 --> 01:12:58,333 Speaker 18: are those percentages going to be? Set up? Those three 1413 01:12:58,453 --> 01:13:01,453 Speaker 18: or four accounts have some different cards for them potentially, 1414 01:13:01,733 --> 01:13:04,293 Speaker 18: and just automate that money so you can start keeping 1415 01:13:04,333 --> 01:13:05,853 Speaker 18: it on top of it. Now, if you want to 1416 01:13:05,893 --> 01:13:08,093 Speaker 18: go whole hog and come up with a spreadsheet and 1417 01:13:08,133 --> 01:13:10,773 Speaker 18: budget it to your as far as you can to 1418 01:13:10,813 --> 01:13:13,733 Speaker 18: your heart's content, that's perfectly fine. But this is a 1419 01:13:13,813 --> 01:13:16,853 Speaker 18: really practical easy way that people can get get started 1420 01:13:17,013 --> 01:13:19,373 Speaker 18: and five or ten minutes logging into their banking app. 1421 01:13:19,813 --> 01:13:22,333 Speaker 3: Love your work here, fantastic, Thank you so much. That's 1422 01:13:22,493 --> 01:13:25,453 Speaker 3: Ed McKnight from Opie's Partners with us. This morning.

Remember, Yeah, No, it wasn't anyway. 1442 01:14:17,173 --> 01:14:20,213 Speaker 3: Yeah, been a bit of a wild week nation wide 1443 01:14:20,293 --> 01:14:21,853 Speaker 3: with the weather. But it is this time of year, 1444 01:14:21,893 --> 01:14:24,693 Speaker 3: of course, that we need to start getting organized for 1445 01:14:24,773 --> 01:14:28,013 Speaker 3: a few bits and pieces in a few months time. 1446 01:14:28,173 --> 01:14:29,373 Speaker 3: And you're just going to run us through some of 1447 01:14:29,413 --> 01:14:30,933 Speaker 3: those things we should be prioritizing. 1448 01:14:31,693 --> 01:14:33,613 Speaker 5: Well, that's one of the things. And we talked about 1449 01:14:33,613 --> 01:14:36,533 Speaker 5: it yesterday last week, and that was the peach leaf curl, 1450 01:14:36,573 --> 01:14:39,613 Speaker 5: and we talked about the fact that that becomes obvious 1451 01:14:39,693 --> 01:14:42,573 Speaker 5: in spring that six months away, and now is the 1452 01:14:42,653 --> 01:14:44,333 Speaker 5: time that you have to do something to get that 1453 01:14:44,453 --> 01:14:47,613 Speaker 5: peach leaf curl under control or do it stop it 1454 01:14:47,733 --> 01:14:51,413 Speaker 5: from doing anything nasty to your pitches at the moment. 1455 01:14:51,653 --> 01:14:54,213 Speaker 5: And we talked about it last week, the double gloss 1456 01:14:54,293 --> 01:14:56,933 Speaker 5: of copper right now when the leads are starting to 1457 01:14:56,933 --> 01:15:00,133 Speaker 5: fall off, because what you're doing is you're actually getting 1458 01:15:00,253 --> 01:15:03,733 Speaker 5: rid of the spores that are causing the trouble in 1459 01:15:03,813 --> 01:15:06,013 Speaker 5: sprint time. And you do it once and then three 1460 01:15:06,053 --> 01:15:08,173 Speaker 5: weeks you do the second time. In the way you go. 1461 01:15:08,333 --> 01:15:11,013 Speaker 5: But the question I got after our talk last week 1462 01:15:11,133 --> 01:15:15,373 Speaker 5: is does the copper spray debilitate the peaches and the nectarines, 1463 01:15:15,453 --> 01:15:18,093 Speaker 5: but as well and I said, no, they're not. They 1464 01:15:18,133 --> 01:15:23,253 Speaker 5: don't because it has no hassle. If you spray copper 1465 01:15:23,333 --> 01:15:26,733 Speaker 5: on an established leaf of a pitch, you have trouble 1466 01:15:26,773 --> 01:15:32,493 Speaker 5: because the leaf usually basically burns today not because now 1467 01:15:33,013 --> 01:15:40,213 Speaker 5: just before they drop the leaves, who cares, they're going anyway, right, 1468 01:15:40,973 --> 01:15:43,933 Speaker 5: And that's it. So here's another thing, and this is 1469 01:15:43,973 --> 01:15:46,773 Speaker 5: the thing that especially in the North Island, people are 1470 01:15:46,853 --> 01:15:50,093 Speaker 5: really peeved off about, and that is that the wonderful 1471 01:15:50,133 --> 01:15:54,133 Speaker 5: creature that is that each your citrus or actually bores 1472 01:15:54,253 --> 01:15:58,693 Speaker 5: into your citrus. It's called the lemon tree borer. Yeah, 1473 01:16:00,093 --> 01:16:02,133 Speaker 5: it can do quite a bit of damage to your images, 1474 01:16:02,173 --> 01:16:05,093 Speaker 5: to be quite honest. And as I said, Nelson Glenn 1475 01:16:05,093 --> 01:16:07,653 Speaker 5: and North, let's up stuff. But here comes to thing 1476 01:16:07,733 --> 01:16:10,853 Speaker 5: a lot of people don't realize with the name lemon 1477 01:16:10,893 --> 01:16:14,493 Speaker 5: tree borer that it is not an introduced species of 1478 01:16:14,613 --> 01:16:17,213 Speaker 5: beetle of a long warn peotle. It has been near 1479 01:16:17,293 --> 01:16:21,413 Speaker 5: all its loft. And I reckon that creature was eating 1480 01:16:21,813 --> 01:16:24,493 Speaker 5: all sorts of native trees at this station, boring into 1481 01:16:24,573 --> 01:16:28,893 Speaker 5: native trees and still does. But I reckon when the 1482 01:16:28,893 --> 01:16:33,613 Speaker 5: citrus was literally taken into a museum by Sharmock Kemp 1483 01:16:34,013 --> 01:16:37,653 Speaker 5: Charlotte Kemp and keedry Kenny in eighteen nineteen. I reckon 1484 01:16:37,733 --> 01:16:41,813 Speaker 5: all the lementary borers were literally applauding on the stone 1485 01:16:41,853 --> 01:16:45,293 Speaker 5: storn wall because they had finally something decent to eat, 1486 01:16:46,773 --> 01:16:50,893 Speaker 5: and honestly they did. They got right into it. This 1487 01:16:51,053 --> 01:16:55,573 Speaker 5: is the thing because they love to lay their eggs 1488 01:16:55,653 --> 01:16:59,533 Speaker 5: on naked one that has been proved. For instance, you 1489 01:16:59,653 --> 01:17:02,373 Speaker 5: can do that in the spring and summertime when the 1490 01:17:02,413 --> 01:17:03,493 Speaker 5: borer are around. 1491 01:17:03,933 --> 01:17:07,493 Speaker 8: But no, there are no borers at the moment because 1492 01:17:07,493 --> 01:17:11,253 Speaker 8: it's in autumn time. Now it's the time to literally 1493 01:17:11,413 --> 01:17:16,533 Speaker 8: prune your lemon trees, your sitters trees without that extra 1494 01:17:16,813 --> 01:17:20,173 Speaker 8: and so so this is the adventure tifting prune. 1495 01:17:20,253 --> 01:17:22,653 Speaker 5: And now that's means said, you don't have to deal 1496 01:17:22,693 --> 01:17:25,373 Speaker 5: with later on and get all these rubbish things going on. 1497 01:17:25,613 --> 01:17:28,053 Speaker 3: Yeah, very good, Hey, thank you so much. Enjoy your 1498 01:17:28,093 --> 01:17:28,853 Speaker 3: time in Papaty. 1499 01:17:29,853 --> 01:17:30,973 Speaker 5: I might certainly do this. 1500 01:17:31,173 --> 01:17:33,093 Speaker 3: Get you soon, Yeah, catch you very soon. That is 1501 01:17:33,173 --> 01:17:35,493 Speaker 3: rouge climb pass. Not quite in the garden for us, 1502 01:17:35,533 --> 01:17:38,373 Speaker 3: but the next best thing. This morning, right, it is 1503 01:17:38,373 --> 01:17:40,813 Speaker 3: just coming up to eleven o'clock on news talks, he'd 1504 01:17:40,853 --> 01:17:44,653 Speaker 3: be after eleven. Our travel correspondents. Well, he's been enjoying 1505 01:17:44,693 --> 01:17:48,733 Speaker 3: all sorts of exotic locations of late. He's going to 1506 01:17:48,733 --> 01:17:51,253 Speaker 3: take us all on a trip to Buddhapest, which is 1507 01:17:51,613 --> 01:17:54,213 Speaker 3: a very very interesting part of the world at the moment. Well, 1508 01:17:54,253 --> 01:17:56,013 Speaker 3: Hungary is very interesting part of the world. So yeah, 1509 01:17:56,053 --> 01:17:59,253 Speaker 3: looking forward to hearing about that. Our music reviewer is 1510 01:17:59,293 --> 01:18:02,853 Speaker 3: here as well with her thoughts on Dave Dobbin's upcoming 1511 01:18:02,893 --> 01:18:07,333 Speaker 3: show at Auckland's Town Hall and what tracks might dig 1512 01:18:07,373 --> 01:18:10,053 Speaker 3: out of the archive. He just has such an incredible 1513 01:18:10,053 --> 01:18:12,413 Speaker 3: back catalog to choose from away. I wonder if we'll 1514 01:18:12,413 --> 01:18:14,533 Speaker 3: put a few surprises in there, so she'll give us 1515 01:18:14,573 --> 01:18:16,893 Speaker 3: her thoughts on that. It's almost eleven o'clock. Don't use 1516 01:18:16,933 --> 01:18:19,253 Speaker 3: its Next you're reject Tame on News Talks, he'd be. 1517 01:18:22,053 --> 01:18:25,773 Speaker 1: Saturday mornings with Jack Tam keeping the conversation going through 1518 01:18:25,813 --> 01:18:28,693 Speaker 1: the weekend with bpure Dot cot on in here for 1519 01:18:28,853 --> 01:18:30,173 Speaker 1: high quality supplements. 1520 01:18:30,293 --> 01:18:31,133 Speaker 2: Used Talks, he'd be. 1521 01:18:54,293 --> 01:18:56,293 Speaker 3: More you know, if you're just turning on the radio 1522 01:18:56,373 --> 01:18:59,013 Speaker 3: this morning with Jack Tame through the twelve o'clock on 1523 01:18:59,093 --> 01:19:02,373 Speaker 3: News Talks, he'd be Election Day in Australia today, Oh 1524 01:19:02,653 --> 01:19:05,453 Speaker 3: too hot. The like politics in New Zealand can be dramatic, 1525 01:19:05,533 --> 01:19:08,813 Speaker 3: with politics in Australia is tic. It's going to be 1526 01:19:08,933 --> 01:19:11,293 Speaker 3: very interesting to see how things unfold today. So obviously, 1527 01:19:11,333 --> 01:19:14,893 Speaker 3: the polls are suggesting that Anthony Albert Easy and his 1528 01:19:15,013 --> 01:19:17,733 Speaker 3: Labor Party are in a stronger position than they have 1529 01:19:17,853 --> 01:19:19,613 Speaker 3: been for quite some time. I mean a lot of 1530 01:19:19,653 --> 01:19:21,453 Speaker 3: people are putting this down to the kind of Trump 1531 01:19:21,613 --> 01:19:25,773 Speaker 3: phenomenon that seems to be benefiting center left politicians that 1532 01:19:25,773 --> 01:19:27,933 Speaker 3: are currently in government. Anyway, you can look at Canada 1533 01:19:27,933 --> 01:19:29,693 Speaker 3: and you can look at Australia and say that both 1534 01:19:30,413 --> 01:19:34,693 Speaker 3: Mark Carney in Canada and Albanese's Labor have probably benefited 1535 01:19:34,733 --> 01:19:37,093 Speaker 3: from the Trump presidency so far. I think they've probably 1536 01:19:37,093 --> 01:19:41,413 Speaker 3: also benefited from what's been a pretty poor campaign from 1537 01:19:41,493 --> 01:19:44,213 Speaker 3: the Liberals and from Peter Dutton in Australia so far. 1538 01:19:44,653 --> 01:19:47,013 Speaker 3: So how things likely to do unfold today, Well, the 1539 01:19:47,053 --> 01:19:51,613 Speaker 3: polls close at six pm Eastern Time in Australia. That's 1540 01:19:51,613 --> 01:19:55,213 Speaker 3: when they begin closing, and obviously they remain open for 1541 01:19:55,253 --> 01:19:58,973 Speaker 3: a few hours after that to allow for the West 1542 01:19:58,973 --> 01:20:02,013 Speaker 3: Coast for voters in Western Australia to cast their ballots. 1543 01:20:02,413 --> 01:20:05,013 Speaker 3: They have had early voting open for some time in 1544 01:20:05,013 --> 01:20:08,933 Speaker 3: Australia so far. However, for whatever reason, the rules in 1545 01:20:08,973 --> 01:20:12,533 Speaker 3: Australia mean that they can't count those early votes until 1546 01:20:12,573 --> 01:20:16,413 Speaker 3: the polls close. They are, however, allowed to prepare some 1547 01:20:16,453 --> 01:20:19,653 Speaker 3: of those votes, so the polling workers can go and 1548 01:20:19,693 --> 01:20:22,453 Speaker 3: get the millions of early votes that have already been cast. 1549 01:20:22,973 --> 01:20:25,853 Speaker 3: They can prepare them like they can unfold them, but 1550 01:20:25,933 --> 01:20:29,373 Speaker 3: they can't start counting them until the polls close. So 1551 01:20:29,573 --> 01:20:33,573 Speaker 3: there's that little curiosities about election election rules and election 1552 01:20:33,653 --> 01:20:36,413 Speaker 3: laws in Australia. So they can start unfolding them at 1553 01:20:36,413 --> 01:20:38,453 Speaker 3: four o'clock. It means that they will be able to 1554 01:20:38,493 --> 01:20:41,853 Speaker 3: process the votes faster than the votes that have been 1555 01:20:41,893 --> 01:20:44,413 Speaker 3: cast today or the ballots that have been cast today, 1556 01:20:44,413 --> 01:20:46,973 Speaker 3: but it's still it's not like, you know, six oh 1557 01:20:47,093 --> 01:20:50,933 Speaker 3: one Australian Eastern time. They're immediately going to have immediately 1558 01:20:50,973 --> 01:20:52,973 Speaker 3: going to have the results. Of course. The other thing, 1559 01:20:53,453 --> 01:20:56,293 Speaker 3: the other kind of dynamic at play in Australia is 1560 01:20:56,293 --> 01:20:59,773 Speaker 3: that they have a preferential voting system. So you come 1561 01:20:59,773 --> 01:21:01,533 Speaker 3: in and you say, you kind of list your candidate. 1562 01:21:01,573 --> 01:21:03,253 Speaker 3: It's one by one. You say, this's my favorite, there's 1563 01:21:03,253 --> 01:21:05,773 Speaker 3: my second favorite, there's my third favorite, and they have 1564 01:21:05,773 --> 01:21:10,293 Speaker 3: compulsory in Australia, which also means the results are a 1565 01:21:10,293 --> 01:21:12,653 Speaker 3: little bit different than you might expect in other countries 1566 01:21:12,693 --> 01:21:16,893 Speaker 3: where there are bigger demographic qualities at play. So you 1567 01:21:16,893 --> 01:21:19,253 Speaker 3: can say, for example that oh, well, this politician or 1568 01:21:19,293 --> 01:21:22,373 Speaker 3: this party, this platform might be popular with younger voters, 1569 01:21:22,693 --> 01:21:25,533 Speaker 3: but then younger voters don't necessarily vote in the same 1570 01:21:25,613 --> 01:21:30,373 Speaker 3: numbers as older voters. The non voting factor isn't quite 1571 01:21:30,373 --> 01:21:32,653 Speaker 3: the issue in Australia than it might be in other countries. 1572 01:21:32,773 --> 01:21:35,053 Speaker 3: So anyway, all of that is to say, fascinating day 1573 01:21:35,333 --> 01:21:37,013 Speaker 3: in Australia today. I got lots of mates over there 1574 01:21:37,053 --> 01:21:40,173 Speaker 3: who are very very keenly watching those results and they 1575 01:21:40,213 --> 01:21:42,533 Speaker 3: sort of turn it into an event. You know, they 1576 01:21:42,533 --> 01:21:44,413 Speaker 3: have a sausage. You know, everyone goes and cast their 1577 01:21:44,453 --> 01:21:47,173 Speaker 3: ballot and then gets a sausage to celebrate election day 1578 01:21:47,173 --> 01:21:49,893 Speaker 3: and celebrate democracy. So yeah, looking forward to the results 1579 01:21:49,933 --> 01:21:53,533 Speaker 3: coming in tonight. It seems pretty likely more likely than 1580 01:21:53,573 --> 01:21:55,733 Speaker 3: not that we would have a result by midnight New 1581 01:21:55,813 --> 01:21:59,453 Speaker 3: Zealand time, but it might be tomorrow until the exact 1582 01:21:59,493 --> 01:22:01,973 Speaker 3: shape of the government becomes clear, especially if they need 1583 01:22:02,013 --> 01:22:04,293 Speaker 3: to form a coalition or it's a minority government or 1584 01:22:04,293 --> 01:22:07,853 Speaker 3: something like that. Anyway, coming up before a day on 1585 01:22:07,893 --> 01:22:09,493 Speaker 3: news talks, he'd be We're going to catch up with 1586 01:22:09,493 --> 01:22:12,653 Speaker 3: our music reviewer Stell Clifford, who is looking at Dave 1587 01:22:12,693 --> 01:22:16,053 Speaker 3: Dobbin's back catalog and trying to pick what the master 1588 01:22:16,213 --> 01:22:18,693 Speaker 3: is going to be playing when he plays this one 1589 01:22:18,733 --> 01:22:21,893 Speaker 3: off show at Auckland's town Hall next month. Cannot wait 1590 01:22:21,933 --> 01:22:24,373 Speaker 3: for that as well as that.

And I think these days, especially, 1666 01:26:19,373 --> 01:26:21,853 Speaker 19: you know, people just throwing money at it, buy a 1667 01:26:21,893 --> 01:26:26,013 Speaker 19: nice card and like move on. But actually mothers there's 1668 01:26:26,053 --> 01:26:29,773 Speaker 19: such a and mother figures in our lives. Yeah, they 1669 01:26:30,133 --> 01:26:33,413 Speaker 19: deserve to just if you can prioritize them and prioritize 1670 01:26:33,413 --> 01:26:35,933 Speaker 19: your time, that can mean just the entire world. 1671 01:26:36,093 --> 01:26:38,893 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, And like you say, like it's an experience, 1672 01:26:38,933 --> 01:26:40,733 Speaker 3: you're kind of creating a memory there as well, which 1673 01:26:40,973 --> 01:26:44,733 Speaker 3: as always so special. If you are getting together and 1674 01:26:44,773 --> 01:26:48,773 Speaker 3: doing the kind of bushwalking picnic thing, you would obviously 1675 01:26:48,773 --> 01:26:51,933 Speaker 3: want us to be using, you know, not avoiding plastic 1676 01:26:51,933 --> 01:26:53,613 Speaker 3: pates and heaps of rubbish and that kind of thing. 1677 01:26:54,213 --> 01:26:56,613 Speaker 19: Totally. Yeah, it would be ironic if you were to 1678 01:26:56,653 --> 01:26:58,373 Speaker 19: sit out in a bush walk on a picnic and 1679 01:26:58,413 --> 01:27:00,613 Speaker 19: then have a whole lot of rubbish around you have 1680 01:27:00,653 --> 01:27:03,173 Speaker 19: to take home, So it is easier and also lighter 1681 01:27:03,253 --> 01:27:07,293 Speaker 19: if you are walking through a bush to Yeah, some 1682 01:27:08,173 --> 01:27:13,893 Speaker 19: simple containers reuse if you're reusing a reasonable plastic bags, 1683 01:27:13,893 --> 01:27:15,733 Speaker 19: a plot bag, those can be really great. They're really 1684 01:27:15,773 --> 01:27:18,773 Speaker 19: light and you can wash them use them again. So yeah, 1685 01:27:18,813 --> 01:27:23,053 Speaker 19: think about what you're taking or your items. And reasonable nepkins, 1686 01:27:23,293 --> 01:27:25,333 Speaker 19: which I just love. I think they're so much more 1687 01:27:25,333 --> 01:27:27,733 Speaker 19: classy as well. That's what I'll be doing for my 1688 01:27:27,853 --> 01:27:32,413 Speaker 19: mum is having a brunch and yeah, reasonable netkins, just 1689 01:27:32,733 --> 01:27:34,933 Speaker 19: normal plates and all sorts of things. But if you 1690 01:27:34,933 --> 01:27:37,493 Speaker 19: are having a bigger gathering I know some people do 1691 01:27:37,613 --> 01:27:40,493 Speaker 19: for Mother's Day, get together with a whole bunch of family, 1692 01:27:40,973 --> 01:27:44,173 Speaker 19: then yeah, think about that as well. I you know, 1693 01:27:44,253 --> 01:27:47,413 Speaker 19: you can get knives and forks and plates and all 1694 01:27:47,453 --> 01:27:50,453 Speaker 19: sorts for you know, fifty cents at up stops if 1695 01:27:50,493 --> 01:27:53,413 Speaker 19: you do need to cater for a bigger range of people, 1696 01:27:53,573 --> 01:27:55,533 Speaker 19: And that can actually save your money in the long 1697 01:27:55,613 --> 01:27:57,933 Speaker 19: term too. If you just have that stash of things, 1698 01:27:57,973 --> 01:28:00,013 Speaker 19: you're not having to buy disposals all the time for 1699 01:28:00,013 --> 01:28:00,613 Speaker 19: big events. 1700 01:28:00,693 --> 01:28:02,813 Speaker 3: Yeah, that makes sense. And like if you are seeing 1701 01:28:02,893 --> 01:28:05,133 Speaker 3: mama car even just doing something digitally or seeing like 1702 01:28:05,133 --> 01:28:08,573 Speaker 3: a video message or something be quite nicely totally. Yeah. 1703 01:28:08,613 --> 01:28:11,533 Speaker 19: I love it when you know people maybe overseas, right 1704 01:28:11,693 --> 01:28:15,693 Speaker 19: or maybe mums in another country and actually, yeah, creating 1705 01:28:15,733 --> 01:28:18,133 Speaker 19: and thinking about a clever video to put together maybe 1706 01:28:18,173 --> 01:28:21,053 Speaker 19: with your siblings or like the rest of your family, 1707 01:28:21,173 --> 01:28:24,413 Speaker 19: that could be such a laugh and something that she 1708 01:28:24,493 --> 01:28:27,293 Speaker 19: can keep and keep looking at rather than a card 1709 01:28:27,333 --> 01:28:32,493 Speaker 19: that just says something like happy Mother's Day, move on it. Yeah, 1710 01:28:32,573 --> 01:28:34,973 Speaker 19: it can show again, it's showing that time and thought 1711 01:28:35,373 --> 01:28:38,693 Speaker 19: and I think ye, especially these days people are just 1712 01:28:38,973 --> 01:28:42,853 Speaker 19: running around so kind of busy that that really, yeah, 1713 01:28:42,933 --> 01:28:44,253 Speaker 19: shows how much you love your mum. 1714 01:28:44,413 --> 01:28:46,813 Speaker 3: Ah so good, Hey, thank you very much.

Jose took me an interesting email to say, Jack. 1721 01:29:02,213 --> 01:29:04,453 Speaker 3: I was a volunteer worker for the family Christmas Lunch 1722 01:29:04,453 --> 01:29:06,253 Speaker 3: that Auckland City Mission used to do at the Auckland 1723 01:29:06,493 --> 01:29:09,013 Speaker 3: Town Hall. One year, I reckon it was about nineteen 1724 01:29:09,053 --> 01:29:12,453 Speaker 3: ninety five. Dave Dobbin performed on stage while lunch was 1725 01:29:12,493 --> 01:29:15,013 Speaker 3: being served. I think Big Wronger was another performer at 1726 01:29:15,013 --> 01:29:17,693 Speaker 3: the time, so not quite a paid concert performance, but 1727 01:29:17,813 --> 01:29:21,093 Speaker 3: close enough. Dave also came to Puck, a tour island 1728 01:29:21,093 --> 01:29:24,173 Speaker 3: resort with the Dudes and performed the weekend that the 1729 01:29:24,173 --> 01:29:27,213 Speaker 3: island hosted the Auckland Boat Show in nineteen eighty eight, 1730 01:29:27,213 --> 01:29:31,453 Speaker 3: which was a memorable concert by the Master So Okay, 1731 01:29:31,493 --> 01:29:34,933 Speaker 3: So we thought Joseph that Dave Dobbin had never played 1732 01:29:34,933 --> 01:29:37,693 Speaker 3: the Auckland Town Hall. So I wonder how never that 1733 01:29:37,733 --> 01:29:40,053 Speaker 3: never is. You know, maybe there are a couple of exceptions. 1734 01:29:40,093 --> 01:29:42,853 Speaker 3: Maybe it's like never played the Auckland Town Hall in 1735 01:29:42,893 --> 01:29:45,333 Speaker 3: a paid concert, or never headlined a concert at the 1736 01:29:45,333 --> 01:29:47,853 Speaker 3: Auckland Tatle or something like that. We'll have to double check, 1737 01:29:47,893 --> 01:29:50,613 Speaker 3: but thank you very much for those memories.

I 1759 01:30:49,493 --> 01:30:52,133 Speaker 3: was driving the stretch from a state hiow one from 1760 01:30:52,213 --> 01:30:55,013 Speaker 3: christ Rich south and you know, when you're usually heading south, 1761 01:30:55,053 --> 01:30:58,093 Speaker 3: you've kind of got nothing really on your left hand side, 1762 01:30:58,093 --> 01:30:59,653 Speaker 3: but on the right hand side, like you say, you've 1763 01:30:59,653 --> 01:31:02,133 Speaker 3: got the spine of the Southern Alps there. Yes, of course, 1764 01:31:02,173 --> 01:31:04,533 Speaker 3: on Thursday, in the throes of the storm, I couldn't 1765 01:31:04,533 --> 01:31:07,253 Speaker 3: see anything, get loads to see out of the window, 1766 01:31:08,013 --> 01:31:11,013 Speaker 3: but it was, according to the car thermometer, six degrees 1767 01:31:11,213 --> 01:31:13,733 Speaker 3: and the rain was falling very heavily. So I was 1768 01:31:14,053 --> 01:31:16,693 Speaker 3: looking out that right hand driver's side and thinking, you 1769 01:31:16,773 --> 01:31:19,813 Speaker 3: know what, Okay, maybe I can't see the Alps right now, 1770 01:31:19,853 --> 01:31:21,933 Speaker 3: but something tells me they're getting to be getting a 1771 01:31:21,933 --> 01:31:26,213 Speaker 3: fair bit of snow in this storm. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 1772 01:31:26,333 --> 01:31:30,253 Speaker 3: that's particular. Please hear there are some upsides given what 1773 01:31:30,773 --> 01:31:33,533 Speaker 3: have been over the last few days. Anyway, we are 1774 01:31:33,573 --> 01:31:37,493 Speaker 3: turning our attentions slightly further afield this morning to put 1775 01:31:37,493 --> 01:31:40,453 Speaker 3: a pest in Hungary. And it is a very very 1776 01:31:40,493 --> 01:31:43,653 Speaker 3: interesting place to be right now, not only for historical 1777 01:31:43,733 --> 01:31:48,413 Speaker 3: reasons but for modern political reasons. Is Victor Auburn's influence noticeable? 1778 01:31:49,653 --> 01:31:52,613 Speaker 2: It's unmistakable. Yeah, it's been over a decade since I 1779 01:31:52,693 --> 01:31:55,853 Speaker 2: was last and brought a pesta, and all Ben's nationalist 1780 01:31:56,093 --> 01:31:59,093 Speaker 2: stripes are just ever present in the city. So the 1781 01:31:59,173 --> 01:32:02,013 Speaker 2: thing I really noticed a couple of weeks ago the flags. 1782 01:32:02,053 --> 01:32:08,013 Speaker 2: There's just these huge Hungarian flags at every turn, choose monuments, 1783 01:32:08,253 --> 01:32:13,613 Speaker 2: all sorts of splashy patriotism, just pervading Buddha pest. The 1784 01:32:13,733 --> 01:32:18,813 Speaker 2: money spent check on lighting up every landmark building in bridge, 1785 01:32:19,133 --> 01:32:23,053 Speaker 2: edging and crossing the Danube is astonishing. It's like Disneyland 1786 01:32:23,093 --> 01:32:27,493 Speaker 2: after dark. And Budapest. He's Europe's longest serving prime minister. 1787 01:32:27,893 --> 01:32:31,853 Speaker 2: He cleared Bapest of beggars. They are persona on grata. 1788 01:32:32,733 --> 01:32:36,493 Speaker 2: But I think his most extravagant splash has been on 1789 01:32:36,613 --> 01:32:40,453 Speaker 2: rebuilding the historic power base of Hungary, the Castle District, 1790 01:32:40,733 --> 01:32:44,093 Speaker 2: which is on the hills of Buddha. All of that, well, 1791 01:32:44,133 --> 01:32:46,253 Speaker 2: a lot of it was destroyed in World War Two, 1792 01:32:46,293 --> 01:32:51,613 Speaker 2: but it's now one of Europe's biggest historic reconstruction zones. 1793 01:32:51,653 --> 01:32:52,853 Speaker 2: It is just epic. 1794 01:32:53,013 --> 01:32:56,893 Speaker 3: How much is he spending on the restorations. 1795 01:32:56,413 --> 01:32:59,173 Speaker 2: Then, such a good question. No one really seems to know. 1796 01:32:59,373 --> 01:33:04,653 Speaker 2: It's a closely guarded secret. The total price tag, well 1797 01:33:04,813 --> 01:33:08,413 Speaker 2: you just just pick a number. But currently the building's 1798 01:33:08,493 --> 01:33:12,213 Speaker 2: currently being worked on. They come with a cost of 1799 01:33:12,293 --> 01:33:16,453 Speaker 2: three billion dollars, so I mean you can you can double, triple, 1800 01:33:16,733 --> 01:33:19,813 Speaker 2: quadruple that figure for the total price tag. But it's 1801 01:33:19,973 --> 01:33:24,053 Speaker 2: just extraordinary. So this castle district, it was previously like 1802 01:33:24,133 --> 01:33:28,133 Speaker 2: the power base of the the Habsburgs when Austria and 1803 01:33:28,213 --> 01:33:32,853 Speaker 2: Hungary got together. My guide, I think my guide summed 1804 01:33:32,893 --> 01:33:35,293 Speaker 2: it up best. As we sort of walked along all 1805 01:33:35,293 --> 01:33:39,173 Speaker 2: of these buildings being stored and reconstructed. My guide said, 1806 01:33:39,413 --> 01:33:43,973 Speaker 2: Auburn has an edifice complex, which it was such a 1807 01:33:44,013 --> 01:33:48,813 Speaker 2: great term. But yeah, under under the Habsburg monarchy, Jack, 1808 01:33:49,253 --> 01:33:55,293 Speaker 2: many of these castle fountains actually frothed with wine. No 1809 01:33:55,453 --> 01:33:57,453 Speaker 2: word as to whether that's been reinstated. 1810 01:33:59,693 --> 01:34:02,173 Speaker 3: I guess we'll find out. My goodness, Yeah, that's amazing. 1811 01:34:02,853 --> 01:34:05,973 Speaker 3: I mean, this is you know, an extraordinary Yeah, that's 1812 01:34:06,013 --> 01:34:08,293 Speaker 3: part of the has an extraordinary recent history, and there 1813 01:34:08,293 --> 01:34:10,333 Speaker 3: are some pretty sobering World War iiO history on the 1814 01:34:10,373 --> 01:34:11,533 Speaker 3: banks of the Danube. 1815 01:34:13,013 --> 01:34:17,173 Speaker 2: Yes, Hungary was a Nazi puppet before the Soviets called 1816 01:34:17,173 --> 01:34:20,093 Speaker 2: the shots post war. But just down from the Hungary Parliament, 1817 01:34:20,133 --> 01:34:24,493 Speaker 2: which is another beautiful building from the nineteenth century, the 1818 01:34:24,533 --> 01:34:29,413 Speaker 2: Schue Memorial man alive sixty pairs of bronze shoes and 1819 01:34:29,453 --> 01:34:31,533 Speaker 2: they're all in different shapes and sizes, and they just 1820 01:34:31,653 --> 01:34:34,613 Speaker 2: scattered along the edge of the river as if the 1821 01:34:34,613 --> 01:34:36,693 Speaker 2: owners of these shoes have just stepped out of them. 1822 01:34:36,733 --> 01:34:40,573 Speaker 2: It's in honor of the thousands of Hungarian Jews who 1823 01:34:40,573 --> 01:34:45,013 Speaker 2: were forced to remove their shoes before being shot on 1824 01:34:45,093 --> 01:34:48,413 Speaker 2: that site, and the reason being the shoes were actually 1825 01:34:48,413 --> 01:34:51,773 Speaker 2: a really valuable commodity during the war, so as their 1826 01:34:51,813 --> 01:34:55,413 Speaker 2: bodies floated away in the river, their shoes were being sold. 1827 01:34:55,693 --> 01:35:00,253 Speaker 2: And the simplicity of the Schu Memorial, it is profoundly moving. 1828 01:35:00,453 --> 01:35:03,853 Speaker 3: Yeah, I remember seeing it there, and you know, I've seen, 1829 01:35:04,093 --> 01:35:06,173 Speaker 3: you know a few kind of memorials and things around Europe. 1830 01:35:06,453 --> 01:35:09,693 Speaker 3: I reckon that stands out as one of, if not 1831 01:35:09,693 --> 01:35:12,853 Speaker 3: the most kind of affecting memorials today. I can think 1832 01:35:12,893 --> 01:35:16,133 Speaker 3: of degree throughout that part. Yeah, it really is, you know, 1833 01:35:16,173 --> 01:35:20,093 Speaker 3: it really is affecting and moving. So yeah, totally your 1834 01:35:20,253 --> 01:35:23,653 Speaker 3: suggestion there. Did you try Hungary's locallysterol pork. 1835 01:35:25,173 --> 01:35:27,693 Speaker 2: Well, it sounds like a contradiction in tombs, doesn't it. 1836 01:35:28,133 --> 01:35:32,013 Speaker 2: Locally stroll porky pig and very high on Omega three, 1837 01:35:32,253 --> 01:35:35,733 Speaker 2: this one in Hungary. So yes, autra Felgutu went out 1838 01:35:35,733 --> 01:35:39,413 Speaker 2: to a place called Sheeeesel Winery on the outskirts of 1839 01:35:39,413 --> 01:35:43,413 Speaker 2: the city and their specialty dish is munga Litzer pig. 1840 01:35:43,813 --> 01:35:47,053 Speaker 2: So this is a locally strolled pork from a heritage 1841 01:35:47,093 --> 01:35:50,293 Speaker 2: breed of Hungarian pigs. And I've become the toast of 1842 01:35:50,333 --> 01:35:52,973 Speaker 2: a lot of gourmet restaurants in Europe. But the most 1843 01:35:53,053 --> 01:35:59,813 Speaker 2: unusual pigs they have really wally coolly here they look 1844 01:35:59,933 --> 01:36:05,133 Speaker 2: more like overgrown sheep than than pigs. And the mungo 1845 01:36:05,213 --> 01:36:08,813 Speaker 2: litzer is a lot darker than regular pork. It looks 1846 01:36:08,813 --> 01:36:12,733 Speaker 2: and tastes more like beef. It's cured and smoked and 1847 01:36:12,973 --> 01:36:14,733 Speaker 2: super tasty and very good for you. 1848 01:36:14,813 --> 01:36:18,573 Speaker 3: Apparently it is that he is not you know, it's 1849 01:36:18,613 --> 01:36:19,133 Speaker 3: not lacking. 1850 01:36:20,413 --> 01:36:22,213 Speaker 2: No, no, no, no at all. He just put a bit 1851 01:36:22,253 --> 01:36:24,053 Speaker 2: of paprika on it and life. 1852 01:36:23,973 --> 01:36:26,333 Speaker 3: Is good on how old. That's the one. 1853 01:36:27,773 --> 01:36:30,973 Speaker 2: Well I loved this one. Reject. She's was started by 1854 01:36:31,013 --> 01:36:34,893 Speaker 2: a German migrant family in the nineteenth century and the 1855 01:36:34,973 --> 01:36:38,053 Speaker 2: great grandson, Conrad she still he runs it today. But 1856 01:36:38,093 --> 01:36:41,053 Speaker 2: he told me this great story about how during World 1857 01:36:41,053 --> 01:36:44,653 Speaker 2: War Two his grandfather had his best friend who was Jewish, 1858 01:36:44,973 --> 01:36:49,133 Speaker 2: and his whole family in giant oak barrels at that 1859 01:36:49,253 --> 01:36:52,893 Speaker 2: winery to save their lives from the essays. And then 1860 01:36:52,973 --> 01:36:57,613 Speaker 2: about twelve years later, after the Communists took power, the 1861 01:36:57,653 --> 01:37:01,653 Speaker 2: winery was nationalized, but the Jewish friend's son had become 1862 01:37:01,693 --> 01:37:06,413 Speaker 2: a lawyer and actually convinced Hungary's leader to return the 1863 01:37:06,453 --> 01:37:10,973 Speaker 2: winery to the Shecheesel family. Isn't it the most amazing story? Yeah? 1864 01:37:11,053 --> 01:37:13,613 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, So what else is or where else is 1865 01:37:13,653 --> 01:37:16,573 Speaker 3: good for some sort of quintessential tastes and buta pests. 1866 01:37:17,293 --> 01:37:20,933 Speaker 2: Well, you may recall the big central market in town, 1867 01:37:21,053 --> 01:37:24,813 Speaker 2: so this is like grazing heaven, and it's still just 1868 01:37:25,053 --> 01:37:28,293 Speaker 2: the go to for a taste of budapests. So there 1869 01:37:28,293 --> 01:37:31,613 Speaker 2: are still hundreds of food stalls. Most of them are 1870 01:37:31,653 --> 01:37:34,453 Speaker 2: actually selling peasant dishes as they call it. You know, 1871 01:37:34,533 --> 01:37:39,413 Speaker 2: your goulesh soup and your langos, those fried flat breads, 1872 01:37:39,453 --> 01:37:42,773 Speaker 2: which probably is actually Hungary's best known street food. I 1873 01:37:42,813 --> 01:37:46,813 Speaker 2: reckon around the world Paprika, the spicy anca to all 1874 01:37:46,893 --> 01:37:50,213 Speaker 2: Hungarian cuisine. You will find it everywhere. I do love 1875 01:37:50,213 --> 01:37:53,213 Speaker 2: those paprika sauces, and I was very impressed to see 1876 01:37:53,253 --> 01:37:55,693 Speaker 2: despite the cost of living around the world, you can 1877 01:37:55,773 --> 01:37:59,653 Speaker 2: still get bangers and a beer combo at the Central 1878 01:37:59,733 --> 01:38:02,733 Speaker 2: Market for about three New Zealand dollars. Oh yeah, that's good. 1879 01:38:02,773 --> 01:38:05,373 Speaker 3: The price is right nice. What about the ruin bars? 1880 01:38:05,373 --> 01:38:06,093 Speaker 3: Are those sort of thing? 1881 01:38:07,373 --> 01:38:10,813 Speaker 2: They are a Budapeste signature, so basically they're making use 1882 01:38:10,853 --> 01:38:13,653 Speaker 2: of derelict buildings and there are still a lot of them. 1883 01:38:13,693 --> 01:38:16,573 Speaker 2: Just a few blocks back from the Danube, I went 1884 01:38:16,613 --> 01:38:21,413 Speaker 2: to Taqueria, which was formerly the storage depot for Hungarian railways. 1885 01:38:21,733 --> 01:38:24,693 Speaker 2: I tried a pinky jack, which is a grape fruit 1886 01:38:24,853 --> 01:38:27,453 Speaker 2: vodka shot, and then I had one of the highly 1887 01:38:27,533 --> 01:38:32,373 Speaker 2: flammable plumper linkers, which weighed in forty four percent alcohol. 1888 01:38:32,653 --> 01:38:33,973 Speaker 2: Just the one did the trick. 1889 01:38:34,333 --> 01:38:38,173 Speaker 3: Yes, my goodness, was there any sweetness in. 1890 01:38:38,213 --> 01:38:45,053 Speaker 10: That No, no, no, really, yeah, very totally. 1891 01:38:45,653 --> 01:38:48,093 Speaker 3: It sounds like an adventure though, thank you.

Hey how a the Hi? 1914 01:40:01,293 --> 01:40:04,493 Speaker 10: Oh my goodness, aga into Wellington on private jets probably 1915 01:40:05,293 --> 01:40:08,813 Speaker 10: new July. Yeah, let's this is quite cool. Look, Wellington 1916 01:40:08,853 --> 01:40:11,853 Speaker 10: Phoenix have had a forgettable season. I'll wrap it tomorrow yep. 1917 01:40:11,893 --> 01:40:14,333 Speaker 10: But yeah, if we've got Wrexham to look forward to 1918 01:40:14,653 --> 01:40:17,693 Speaker 10: in July, that's a nice little boost for fans of 1919 01:40:17,693 --> 01:40:19,453 Speaker 10: football in the Capitol. Yeah, very much so. 1920 01:40:19,773 --> 01:40:22,653 Speaker 3: Aukland FC have their last game of the regular season 1921 01:40:23,213 --> 01:40:27,053 Speaker 3: this evening. So just talk us through the playoff kind 1922 01:40:27,093 --> 01:40:29,813 Speaker 3: of process, because I mean, I know the Phoenix have 1923 01:40:29,853 --> 01:40:32,413 Speaker 3: made to the playoffs a couple of times before, but just 1924 01:40:32,413 --> 01:40:34,053 Speaker 3: just run us through how things are like you to 1925 01:40:34,093 --> 01:40:36,293 Speaker 3: go for the next couple of weeks. Obviously things are 1926 01:40:36,293 --> 01:40:38,893 Speaker 3: a bit result dependent in terms of opponents and that 1927 01:40:38,973 --> 01:40:39,373 Speaker 3: kind of thing. 1928 01:40:39,693 --> 01:40:41,493 Speaker 10: Indeed they are. Yeah, we don't yet know who Auckland 1929 01:40:41,533 --> 01:40:43,693 Speaker 10: will play, so by finishing in the top two, which 1930 01:40:43,693 --> 01:40:45,933 Speaker 10: they are guaranteed to do now, they will skip the 1931 01:40:45,973 --> 01:40:48,253 Speaker 10: first week of the playoffs, that is next weekend. When 1932 01:40:48,613 --> 01:40:51,493 Speaker 10: three plays six and four plays five, those are straight 1933 01:40:51,573 --> 01:40:53,733 Speaker 10: knockouts and the winners go through to the semi finals 1934 01:40:53,733 --> 01:40:57,493 Speaker 10: to play Auckland FC and whoever finishes second. Now in 1935 01:40:57,533 --> 01:41:01,053 Speaker 10: the semi finals they are home and away, so Auckland 1936 01:41:01,133 --> 01:41:04,013 Speaker 10: FC will travel away to whoever it is and then 1937 01:41:04,093 --> 01:41:06,613 Speaker 10: host them back at home on Saturday, the twenty fourth 1938 01:41:06,653 --> 01:41:09,453 Speaker 10: of May. It's an aggregate across the two legs. When 1939 01:41:09,533 --> 01:41:11,973 Speaker 10: that and you're into a one off grand final, which, 1940 01:41:12,053 --> 01:41:15,253 Speaker 10: if Auckland make Auckland will host. We don't quite know 1941 01:41:15,293 --> 01:41:17,853 Speaker 10: where yet, could be Eden Park, could be going media. 1942 01:41:18,053 --> 01:41:21,893 Speaker 10: But so basically they are three games away from lifting 1943 01:41:21,973 --> 01:41:25,453 Speaker 10: the A League Championship to go with the A League Premiership. 1944 01:41:25,573 --> 01:41:28,453 Speaker 3: Yes, right, So regardless of what happens tonight in their 1945 01:41:28,533 --> 01:41:30,893 Speaker 3: last regular season game, they will definitely have a home 1946 01:41:30,933 --> 01:41:34,653 Speaker 3: and away semi final and they'll be playing the winner 1947 01:41:34,813 --> 01:41:38,613 Speaker 3: of the what of the fourth of the fifth sixth playoff? 1948 01:41:38,933 --> 01:41:42,333 Speaker 10: Well, it all depends on who comes through in the 1949 01:41:42,453 --> 01:41:45,053 Speaker 10: Yeah three play six and four places five? Okay, three 1950 01:41:45,293 --> 01:41:48,373 Speaker 10: six and four passe five So the lowest yeah, the 1951 01:41:48,453 --> 01:41:52,213 Speaker 10: lowest ranked advancer. So let's just say for arguments, take 1952 01:41:52,253 --> 01:41:55,213 Speaker 10: three beat six and four beats five. Then Auckland would 1953 01:41:55,213 --> 01:41:58,653 Speaker 10: play whoever the fourth place team is the lowest of 1954 01:41:58,693 --> 01:42:00,533 Speaker 10: the ones who advanced to the semi finals. 1955 01:42:00,613 --> 01:42:03,693 Speaker 3: Right, Okay, but if yes, okay, that makes sense, it 1956 01:42:04,253 --> 01:42:05,653 Speaker 3: is somewhat confusing. 1957 01:42:06,613 --> 01:42:08,653 Speaker 10: It is, and I think we probably because there are 1958 01:42:08,693 --> 01:42:12,893 Speaker 10: still see positions two, three, four and five are still 1959 01:42:13,213 --> 01:42:15,373 Speaker 10: up in the air, as our positions and pretty six 1960 01:42:15,493 --> 01:42:17,853 Speaker 10: and seven. So yeah, I mean we could go down 1961 01:42:18,013 --> 01:42:20,973 Speaker 10: a very hypothetical rabbit hole. Jack, I reckon we wait till. 1962 01:42:23,933 --> 01:42:26,333 Speaker 3: There. I think there might be a bit more sensible. 1963 01:42:26,453 --> 01:42:29,173 Speaker 10: How do you feel about the Chiefs, Gaines, I'm feeling 1964 01:42:29,293 --> 01:42:32,733 Speaker 10: excited about it. We've had a terrible week in Wellington 1965 01:42:32,773 --> 01:42:36,013 Speaker 10: weather wise, as you've probably seen, but today has dawn's 1966 01:42:36,213 --> 01:42:39,133 Speaker 10: really nice and fine, and the forecast is good for tonight. 1967 01:42:39,373 --> 01:42:41,533 Speaker 10: I think it's a season of finding game for the 1968 01:42:41,573 --> 01:42:44,893 Speaker 10: Hurricanes the Chiefs. Look, I think we can probably quite 1969 01:42:44,893 --> 01:42:47,493 Speaker 10: safely lock them into the top six. The Hurricanes are 1970 01:42:47,533 --> 01:42:49,533 Speaker 10: in a group of teams who still have some work 1971 01:42:49,573 --> 01:42:52,813 Speaker 10: to do. Look, I'm really excited about some of these 1972 01:42:52,853 --> 01:42:55,933 Speaker 10: matchups tonight. The Chiefs have been excellent all season. Even 1973 01:42:55,933 --> 01:42:59,893 Speaker 10: without Damien McKenzie tonight and Antonin Lennart Brown, they're still 1974 01:42:59,893 --> 01:43:03,373 Speaker 10: a pretty formidable rugby team and Wallace a Titi of course, 1975 01:43:03,413 --> 01:43:05,293 Speaker 10: making his return last week off the benches. Off the 1976 01:43:05,293 --> 01:43:09,053 Speaker 10: bench again tonight, Urricanes, though beating the Brumbies and Canberra 1977 01:43:09,173 --> 01:43:12,173 Speaker 10: last weekend for the first time since twenty seventeen. They've 1978 01:43:12,173 --> 01:43:14,653 Speaker 10: got a couple of good players back to Billy Proctor 1979 01:43:14,893 --> 01:43:17,773 Speaker 10: and others. So look, I think you know, game of 1980 01:43:17,813 --> 01:43:20,333 Speaker 10: the round for sure, looking forward to seeing how it 1981 01:43:20,333 --> 01:43:21,173 Speaker 10: plays out to nice. 1982 01:43:21,173 --> 01:43:24,493 Speaker 3: What do you got for us this afternoon? Rugby League Royalty. 1983 01:43:24,653 --> 01:43:27,253 Speaker 10: Jonathan Thurston's on the show this afternoon, looking forward to 1984 01:43:27,333 --> 01:43:29,613 Speaker 10: Jennida about the Warrior heads over here. 1985 01:43:29,933 --> 01:43:33,013 Speaker 3: Oh he's here already. That's that's really on the Warriors. 1986 01:43:33,093 --> 01:43:36,253 Speaker 10: Are they taking notice of the Warriors on the other 1987 01:43:36,333 --> 01:43:38,813 Speaker 10: side of the Tasman? I mean they're five and two, 1988 01:43:38,893 --> 01:43:41,333 Speaker 10: it's their joint best ever start they take on Actually, 1989 01:43:41,373 --> 01:43:45,013 Speaker 10: ironically enough, Jonathan Thurston's former team, the North Queensland Cowboys. 1990 01:43:45,053 --> 01:43:48,213 Speaker 3: Tonight. Yeah, magic round. So JT's on the show. 1991 01:43:48,213 --> 01:43:51,373 Speaker 10: Speaking of Australia, they've made a decision around Wallaby's coach. 1992 01:43:51,773 --> 01:43:55,133 Speaker 10: Lea's Kiss will take the job, but not until after 1993 01:43:55,333 --> 01:43:59,133 Speaker 10: next season. Super Raking finishers, so is fourteen month is 1994 01:43:59,133 --> 01:44:01,413 Speaker 10: going to be enough time for lez Kiss to get 1995 01:44:01,413 --> 01:44:03,573 Speaker 10: the team ready for the home World Cup Drew Mitchell 1996 01:44:03,613 --> 01:44:05,293 Speaker 10: on that and after midday to day, I want to 1997 01:44:05,293 --> 01:44:07,613 Speaker 10: try and unpack what's been a pretty unfortunate week for 1998 01:44:08,133 --> 01:44:12,213 Speaker 10: New Zealand's National Basketball League with the Indian Panthers situation. 1999 01:44:13,173 --> 01:44:15,173 Speaker 10: Where does the blame lie, if there is any blame, 2000 01:44:15,213 --> 01:44:20,253 Speaker 10: and will this, perhaps, you know, deter you organizations like 2001 01:44:20,293 --> 01:44:23,213 Speaker 10: New Zealand Basketball and others from innovating in the future. 2002 01:44:23,333 --> 01:44:25,253 Speaker 10: I hope it doesn't. I hope they just say, look, 2003 01:44:25,293 --> 01:44:27,893 Speaker 10: this one didn't work. But we're going to unpack all 2004 01:44:27,893 --> 01:44:29,253 Speaker 10: that after midday as well. 2005 01:44:29,333 --> 01:44:31,533 Speaker 3: Jack, nice, looking forward to it.

Katherine Rains, 2013 01:44:50,933 --> 01:44:53,813 Speaker 3: our book reviewer, has two pecks for us this weekend. 2014 01:44:53,813 --> 01:44:56,653 Speaker 3: Two great reads. Get a Catherine, Good morning Jack. Okay, 2015 01:44:56,693 --> 01:44:59,333 Speaker 3: let's begin with the Good Mistress and Tannin. 2016 01:45:00,133 --> 01:45:03,253 Speaker 17: So this story centers around three women and they're at 2017 01:45:04,093 --> 01:45:07,813 Speaker 17: a man called War's funeral, and Juliette sort of never 2018 01:45:07,853 --> 01:45:10,533 Speaker 17: planned to be Rory's mistress, but she fell in love 2019 01:45:10,573 --> 01:45:13,933 Speaker 17: with him and then he died and she always thought 2020 01:45:14,053 --> 01:45:17,813 Speaker 17: that he would leave his wife, and so at the funeral, 2021 01:45:17,853 --> 01:45:20,733 Speaker 17: she's standing at the back and not really quite sure 2022 01:45:20,773 --> 01:45:23,453 Speaker 17: where she should be. And then there's May. She's this 2023 01:45:23,493 --> 01:45:27,093 Speaker 17: incredibly celebrated novelist and life looks to be really perfect 2024 01:45:27,133 --> 01:45:29,733 Speaker 17: for her, except that she has this very passive, aggressive 2025 01:45:29,773 --> 01:45:33,813 Speaker 17: husband and two teenage sons and her mother's ailing, and 2026 01:45:33,973 --> 01:45:36,773 Speaker 17: so her success to her starts to feel really hollow, 2027 01:45:36,813 --> 01:45:38,893 Speaker 17: and she doesn't quite know where she's at. And then 2028 01:45:38,933 --> 01:45:41,493 Speaker 17: she has an affair and she discovers the secret and 2029 01:45:41,613 --> 01:45:45,653 Speaker 17: her life starts to unravel. And then there's Erica, who's 2030 01:45:45,693 --> 01:45:48,133 Speaker 17: Rory's wife, and Rory knew things about her that no 2031 01:45:48,173 --> 01:45:51,413 Speaker 17: one else knew, and so she's got these questions that 2032 01:45:51,453 --> 01:45:54,653 Speaker 17: she doesn't really want to know the answers to. And 2033 01:45:54,693 --> 01:45:56,573 Speaker 17: the weird thing is is that she ends up being 2034 01:45:56,613 --> 01:46:00,333 Speaker 17: friends with Juliette, who's not who she expected. And so 2035 01:46:00,373 --> 01:46:03,053 Speaker 17: you've got these set of characters who are really messy, 2036 01:46:03,133 --> 01:46:06,533 Speaker 17: who make these choices and decisions, but they're interesting and 2037 01:46:06,533 --> 01:46:09,453 Speaker 17: they're quite vulnerable as well, and their secrets and misunderstandings 2038 01:46:09,453 --> 01:46:12,213 Speaker 17: and how their past decisions have influenced their lives now. 2039 01:46:12,253 --> 01:46:14,973 Speaker 17: And yeah, it's an interesting read, not a heart and 2040 01:46:14,973 --> 01:46:16,333 Speaker 17: soul in it, interestingly. 2041 01:46:16,013 --> 01:46:18,973 Speaker 3: Enough, Yeah okay, yeah, right, So that's The Good Mistress 2042 01:46:18,973 --> 01:46:22,213 Speaker 3: by Antien And you've also read The Other People by C. B. Everett. 2043 01:46:22,933 --> 01:46:26,693 Speaker 17: So this story has some really unique characters and voices, 2044 01:46:26,733 --> 01:46:29,293 Speaker 17: and it really moves quickly, so after each shep you 2045 01:46:29,453 --> 01:46:31,613 Speaker 17: really want to know what's happened next. And it's quite 2046 01:46:31,733 --> 01:46:33,573 Speaker 17: dark and quite twisty, and one of these sort of 2047 01:46:33,933 --> 01:46:36,853 Speaker 17: locked room thrillers, a bit Agatha Christie like. So ten 2048 01:46:36,893 --> 01:46:40,693 Speaker 17: people wake in this mansion surrounded by things from their homes, 2049 01:46:40,933 --> 01:46:42,973 Speaker 17: and then their doors are unlocked and they go down 2050 01:46:43,013 --> 01:46:45,573 Speaker 17: to the dining room and they meet other people and 2051 01:46:45,613 --> 01:46:48,173 Speaker 17: they're suspicious and they're confused, and they don't know why 2052 01:46:48,173 --> 01:46:49,773 Speaker 17: they're there, and they don't know how they got there, 2053 01:46:49,813 --> 01:46:51,973 Speaker 17: and they don't know what they have in common. And 2054 01:46:52,013 --> 01:46:53,773 Speaker 17: then they're told by this woman that a girl's been 2055 01:46:53,773 --> 01:46:56,173 Speaker 17: abducted and they've got to find her in the next 2056 01:46:56,293 --> 01:46:59,653 Speaker 17: twelve hours, and then they all start dying one by one, 2057 01:46:59,773 --> 01:47:03,093 Speaker 17: and so everybody's a suspect, no one's safe, no one 2058 01:47:03,133 --> 01:47:05,173 Speaker 17: can work out why they were chosen. And so you 2059 01:47:05,213 --> 01:47:09,373 Speaker 17: get these different characters telling their stories and alternating chapters, 2060 01:47:09,533 --> 01:47:12,693 Speaker 17: and so you get this really atmosphere that's quite dark 2061 01:47:12,733 --> 01:47:15,213 Speaker 17: and claustrophoe because the characters move around the house and 2062 01:47:15,253 --> 01:47:17,613 Speaker 17: they encounter sort of dark rooms and trap doors and 2063 01:47:17,653 --> 01:47:21,013 Speaker 17: heaving corners, and it's quite strange as they encounter things 2064 01:47:21,053 --> 01:47:24,373 Speaker 17: from their homes and they begin to forget life outside 2065 01:47:24,373 --> 01:47:26,413 Speaker 17: the house and they lose that sort of sense of 2066 01:47:26,453 --> 01:47:29,053 Speaker 17: time and reality, and as a reader you're finding that 2067 01:47:29,133 --> 01:47:31,573 Speaker 17: really unsettling as well. So there's a twist at the end, 2068 01:47:31,653 --> 01:47:33,693 Speaker 17: but yeah, it has that quite creepy darkness along with 2069 01:47:33,773 --> 01:47:34,133 Speaker 17: him as well. 2070 01:47:34,493 --> 01:47:35,573 Speaker 7: It's psychological thriller. 2071 01:47:35,733 --> 01:47:37,933 Speaker 3: Yeah right, It does sound like an interesting little journey. 2072 01:47:37,973 --> 01:47:41,133 Speaker 3: So that's The Other People by C. B. Everett. Catherine's 2073 01:47:41,133 --> 01:47:44,773 Speaker 3: first book again was The Good Mistress by Ann Tiernan, 2074 01:47:45,053 --> 01:47:47,053 Speaker 3: and we'll put both of those book titled up on 2075 01:47:47,093 --> 01:47:49,693 Speaker 3: the Newstalks He'd Be website.
