But right now, 148 00:06:20,853 --> 00:06:23,133 Speaker 4: let's have a chat about this. So the government is 149 00:06:23,133 --> 00:06:26,733 Speaker 4: giving police new powers to crack down on those on 150 00:06:26,813 --> 00:06:32,053 Speaker 4: the streets and people displaying disorderly, disruptive, threatening or intimidating behavior. 151 00:06:32,053 --> 00:06:35,413 Speaker 4: It was announced by Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith and Police 152 00:06:35,453 --> 00:06:40,853 Speaker 4: Minister Mark Mitchell, and it will, according to the Summary 153 00:06:40,893 --> 00:06:43,293 Speaker 4: Offenses Act, will mean that police are able to move 154 00:06:43,333 --> 00:06:47,373 Speaker 4: people on who display disorderly, disruptive, threatening, intimidating behavior, obstructing 155 00:06:47,493 --> 00:06:51,093 Speaker 4: or impeding someone entering a business, breaching the piece, begging 156 00:06:51,133 --> 00:06:54,573 Speaker 4: in all forms, rough sleeping, and displaying behavior indicating an 157 00:06:54,573 --> 00:06:56,973 Speaker 4: intent to inhabit a public space. 158 00:06:57,053 --> 00:07:00,653 Speaker 2: Now, I think this government has a problem with its messaging, 159 00:07:01,293 --> 00:07:04,373 Speaker 2: and that's a vacuous thing to say, because do you 160 00:07:04,413 --> 00:07:07,173 Speaker 2: want a government that's better at messaging? That's kind of 161 00:07:07,213 --> 00:07:09,173 Speaker 2: like you want to government the tricks. But I don't 162 00:07:09,173 --> 00:07:10,853 Speaker 2: think they get their message of what they're trying to 163 00:07:10,893 --> 00:07:13,373 Speaker 2: do out as well as previous governments had. But I 164 00:07:13,413 --> 00:07:17,253 Speaker 2: heard Mark Mitchell on Kerry Wooden this morning and this 165 00:07:17,333 --> 00:07:18,893 Speaker 2: is him, and I think he did a much better 166 00:07:18,973 --> 00:07:21,933 Speaker 2: job of explaining at what they're trying to do than 167 00:07:21,933 --> 00:07:24,133 Speaker 2: I had heard when I got up this morning and 168 00:07:24,133 --> 00:07:26,493 Speaker 2: started reading about it, yep, and listening to people talk 169 00:07:26,493 --> 00:07:28,733 Speaker 2: about it. So this is how Mark Mitchell explained it. 170 00:07:28,853 --> 00:07:30,413 Speaker 7: What do they do because at the moment, they can't 171 00:07:30,413 --> 00:07:33,453 Speaker 7: do anything unless the person commits some sort of criminal offenion, 172 00:07:33,453 --> 00:07:35,533 Speaker 7: and we don't want them to come into the criminal 173 00:07:35,573 --> 00:07:39,013 Speaker 7: justice system. We want them to engage with social service providers. 174 00:07:39,013 --> 00:07:41,333 Speaker 7: We want them to be able to identify what their 175 00:07:41,333 --> 00:07:43,013 Speaker 7: complex needs are and we want to be able to 176 00:07:43,013 --> 00:07:46,213 Speaker 7: address those. But we don't have any powers at the moment. 177 00:07:46,253 --> 00:07:48,173 Speaker 7: They can just live on the street. They can stay 178 00:07:48,173 --> 00:07:50,853 Speaker 7: on the street. So we can all go down there 179 00:07:50,893 --> 00:07:52,413 Speaker 7: and we can have a chat with them, and we 180 00:07:52,413 --> 00:07:54,773 Speaker 7: can try and find out their backstories and try to 181 00:07:54,813 --> 00:07:56,853 Speaker 7: work out the best way to help them. If they 182 00:07:56,893 --> 00:07:58,973 Speaker 7: don't want to engage. And it doesn't matter how many 183 00:07:59,413 --> 00:08:02,533 Speaker 7: conversations we have full of goodwill, it's not actually going 184 00:08:02,573 --> 00:08:04,453 Speaker 7: to achieve anything. We have to be able to have 185 00:08:04,493 --> 00:08:07,333 Speaker 7: some powers. That actually says as a country, no, you 186 00:08:07,373 --> 00:08:10,053 Speaker 7: can't sit up and live on on the footpath. But 187 00:08:10,093 --> 00:08:11,933 Speaker 7: by the way, here is all the work that we 188 00:08:11,933 --> 00:08:13,773 Speaker 7: can do. We can support you. We can find a 189 00:08:13,813 --> 00:08:17,693 Speaker 7: way of giving you a better options of not coming 190 00:08:17,733 --> 00:08:19,973 Speaker 7: down on the street. Now, there's lots of complex needs 191 00:08:20,013 --> 00:08:23,453 Speaker 7: and things like that mental health issues are definitely a factor. 192 00:08:24,853 --> 00:08:26,653 Speaker 7: But the reality of it is, I think as a 193 00:08:26,693 --> 00:08:30,253 Speaker 7: country we don't want to see people living on the 194 00:08:30,253 --> 00:08:34,333 Speaker 7: streets anymore, causing all the issues that the public have 195 00:08:34,413 --> 00:08:37,813 Speaker 7: to deal with. It's not that people don't want to 196 00:08:37,813 --> 00:08:40,373 Speaker 7: make sure these people okay, of course they do nothing positive. 197 00:08:40,413 --> 00:08:42,893 Speaker 7: There's no upside to having them continue to live on 198 00:08:42,892 --> 00:08:43,453 Speaker 7: the streets. 199 00:08:43,933 --> 00:08:47,093 Speaker 2: So there's much explained a lot better because when you 200 00:08:47,173 --> 00:08:50,133 Speaker 2: hear that there's a potential fine in the thousands for 201 00:08:50,973 --> 00:08:53,293 Speaker 2: a person living on the street, that just seems stupid. 202 00:08:54,293 --> 00:08:56,932 Speaker 2: How do you find someone that's got no money? And 203 00:08:57,333 --> 00:08:59,533 Speaker 2: so the finds just sound stupid. It's what I got 204 00:08:59,573 --> 00:09:02,372 Speaker 2: this morning and I read they're going to find homeless 205 00:09:02,372 --> 00:09:04,453 Speaker 2: people bet on the street. I was like, good luck. 206 00:09:04,892 --> 00:09:09,093 Speaker 2: But you know, he explains that, you know that the 207 00:09:09,132 --> 00:09:11,132 Speaker 2: idea is that this is a way you can engage 208 00:09:11,173 --> 00:09:16,253 Speaker 2: with them and then you can take them to social services, 209 00:09:16,333 --> 00:09:19,612 Speaker 2: social service providers because we are a very empathetic country. Yep, 210 00:09:19,693 --> 00:09:22,292 Speaker 2: we provide a lot of social services for people that 211 00:09:22,333 --> 00:09:24,693 Speaker 2: are down on the lark, and good honus for doing that. 212 00:09:25,012 --> 00:09:27,973 Speaker 2: But as he says, if you can't, if they're not 213 00:09:29,612 --> 00:09:32,653 Speaker 2: if you're only engaging them with them when they commit 214 00:09:32,732 --> 00:09:35,093 Speaker 2: a crime, then you're putting them into the criminal justice 215 00:09:35,093 --> 00:09:38,173 Speaker 2: system rather than before that putting them into taking them 216 00:09:38,213 --> 00:09:40,893 Speaker 2: to social service providers. But you can see how it's 217 00:09:40,933 --> 00:09:43,773 Speaker 2: so easily going to be portrayed by the opposition to 218 00:09:43,813 --> 00:09:47,132 Speaker 2: be you're trying to put homeless people in jail and 219 00:09:47,973 --> 00:09:48,533 Speaker 2: charge them. 220 00:09:49,252 --> 00:09:52,612 Speaker 4: But how you know, This is what infuriates me about 221 00:09:52,653 --> 00:09:56,533 Speaker 4: the pushback to something like this is where is the opposition, 222 00:09:56,573 --> 00:09:58,853 Speaker 4: I mean, either when they are in government or not 223 00:09:59,012 --> 00:10:01,773 Speaker 4: right now and actually coming up with these long term 224 00:10:01,813 --> 00:10:05,132 Speaker 4: solutions that is going to help the situation. They constantly 225 00:10:05,533 --> 00:10:07,852 Speaker 4: and I'm not targeting anyone group here, but any time 226 00:10:07,892 --> 00:10:11,853 Speaker 4: there's any of movement on addressing this situation, it's always it's. 227 00:10:11,693 --> 00:10:14,373 Speaker 3: An attack on poverty. It's an attack on the poor. No, 228 00:10:14,492 --> 00:10:14,813 Speaker 3: it's not. 229 00:10:14,933 --> 00:10:17,772 Speaker 4: It's actually trying to address a major problem that's affecting 230 00:10:17,813 --> 00:10:19,813 Speaker 4: a whole bunch of businesses in the likes of Queen 231 00:10:19,852 --> 00:10:21,933 Speaker 4: Street and K Road and trying to do what's best 232 00:10:21,933 --> 00:10:24,893 Speaker 4: for those people. But the opposition and the groups coming 233 00:10:24,892 --> 00:10:27,453 Speaker 4: out against this, that's always the same thing. There's never 234 00:10:27,533 --> 00:10:30,653 Speaker 4: any solutions or backbone into actually doing the right thing here, 235 00:10:30,693 --> 00:10:32,372 Speaker 4: apart from saying you're trying to have. 236 00:10:32,333 --> 00:10:34,132 Speaker 3: A go at the poor. That is not what it's 237 00:10:34,132 --> 00:10:35,053 Speaker 3: about in my eyes. 238 00:10:35,293 --> 00:10:38,933 Speaker 2: Well, I guess they would say to that homelessness is 239 00:10:38,933 --> 00:10:41,892 Speaker 2: a housing and social services failure, not a policing issue. 240 00:10:41,933 --> 00:10:44,453 Speaker 2: It's what they'd say, And that move on orders displace 241 00:10:45,053 --> 00:10:49,253 Speaker 2: vulnerable people and risk criminal penalties for poverty and divert 242 00:10:49,252 --> 00:10:53,453 Speaker 2: resources from long term solutions like housing and mental health support. 243 00:10:53,492 --> 00:10:54,213 Speaker 2: That's what they would say. 244 00:10:54,252 --> 00:10:55,293 Speaker 3: It's a good steal man, yep. 245 00:10:55,372 --> 00:10:57,533 Speaker 2: Yeah, Whereas the other thing would say, well, you've got 246 00:10:57,573 --> 00:10:59,093 Speaker 2: to have empathy for people that are trying to run 247 00:10:59,132 --> 00:11:01,412 Speaker 2: businesses and cities and trying to go about. 248 00:11:01,173 --> 00:11:02,493 Speaker 6: Their day, and. 249 00:11:04,573 --> 00:11:06,533 Speaker 2: This is a way to get those people to those 250 00:11:06,573 --> 00:11:09,053 Speaker 2: services that you say they need. They're just standing on 251 00:11:09,093 --> 00:11:12,293 Speaker 2: the street forever and you can never approach them until 252 00:11:12,293 --> 00:11:16,253 Speaker 2: they've broken a window or urinated somewhere. Then you never 253 00:11:16,333 --> 00:11:19,412 Speaker 2: get to, you know, front foot the problem. 254 00:11:19,492 --> 00:11:21,053 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, what do you say though, I eight one 255 00:11:21,093 --> 00:11:23,493 Speaker 4: hundred eighty ten eighty is the number to call?

That'd be. 263 00:11:47,093 --> 00:11:49,772 Speaker 4: Nineteen past one. So the government is giving police new 264 00:11:49,852 --> 00:11:53,252 Speaker 4: powers to be able to deal with those living on 265 00:11:53,333 --> 00:11:57,372 Speaker 4: the streets and beggars, and also people displaying disorderly, disruptive, 266 00:11:57,372 --> 00:12:00,732 Speaker 4: threatening or intimidating behavior.

So it'll be nice and be nice to 300 00:13:23,973 --> 00:13:24,612 Speaker 9: do something. 301 00:13:24,973 --> 00:13:27,293 Speaker 2: Do you do you find it? Are you're you're the 302 00:13:27,293 --> 00:13:30,372 Speaker 2: people you work with intimidated? Find yourself being intimidated all 303 00:13:30,372 --> 00:13:32,172 Speaker 2: by these people when you have to do the class. 304 00:13:34,053 --> 00:13:36,373 Speaker 9: Look, there's some fruitcakes out there, don't get me wrong, 305 00:13:36,453 --> 00:13:38,653 Speaker 9: And there're one in a million, but a lot of 306 00:13:38,653 --> 00:13:42,013 Speaker 9: these people, you know. Yeah, there's one case where there's 307 00:13:42,012 --> 00:13:43,613 Speaker 9: a mother and a child in the street, you know, 308 00:13:45,093 --> 00:13:47,573 Speaker 9: you know you've got to feel sorry for them. Yeah 309 00:13:47,813 --> 00:13:50,973 Speaker 9: so no, no, no, not not really. There's the odd 310 00:13:51,093 --> 00:13:53,733 Speaker 9: nussery out there. But these people are suffering, you know 311 00:13:54,012 --> 00:13:56,732 Speaker 9: that there's you don't know what the situation are, and 312 00:13:56,892 --> 00:13:59,293 Speaker 9: they do need help. But in the same businesses need 313 00:13:59,372 --> 00:14:01,973 Speaker 9: to operate and things need to change, you know. 314 00:14:02,252 --> 00:14:06,892 Speaker 2: And yeah, so you you think that what will happen 315 00:14:06,973 --> 00:14:10,053 Speaker 2: here is that police will have the power to approach 316 00:14:10,132 --> 00:14:12,933 Speaker 2: someone because they are you know, they're they're in the 317 00:14:12,973 --> 00:14:15,573 Speaker 2: area when they can't be, and as a result, they 318 00:14:15,573 --> 00:14:18,732 Speaker 2: will be able to move them to social services and 319 00:14:19,853 --> 00:14:22,453 Speaker 2: then get the help that they need. You think that 320 00:14:22,453 --> 00:14:23,573 Speaker 2: that's all it will play out. 321 00:14:24,333 --> 00:14:27,133 Speaker 9: Well, hopefully it will definitely help us, if you know, 322 00:14:27,133 --> 00:14:28,853 Speaker 9: if we have a problem, we need to do some 323 00:14:28,973 --> 00:14:30,973 Speaker 9: work there and they can be moved on safely so 324 00:14:31,013 --> 00:14:33,653 Speaker 9: they're not in our work saying, and hopefully they do 325 00:14:33,733 --> 00:14:36,213 Speaker 9: take up the social services. But you know, once you've 326 00:14:36,213 --> 00:14:38,053 Speaker 9: got a bad habit, it takes a while to change 327 00:14:38,053 --> 00:14:39,853 Speaker 9: that culture or habits within people. 328 00:14:39,933 --> 00:14:42,093 Speaker 2: So I think I think the term moving on is 329 00:14:42,133 --> 00:14:44,093 Speaker 2: the problem for a lot of people because it sounds 330 00:14:44,093 --> 00:14:47,053 Speaker 2: like you're just moving them on because its moving them on, 331 00:14:47,173 --> 00:14:50,453 Speaker 2: So you move them on. Then they're down down the street, 332 00:14:50,733 --> 00:14:53,733 Speaker 2: so that that means the problem, yeah, or they end 333 00:14:53,813 --> 00:14:56,173 Speaker 2: up in a park, or they'll end up in a suburb. 334 00:14:56,493 --> 00:14:59,133 Speaker 2: But you haven't helped them, and you haven't necessarily solved 335 00:14:59,173 --> 00:15:00,933 Speaker 2: the problem. You've solved the problem for that particular business 336 00:15:00,933 --> 00:15:03,013 Speaker 2: that they're in front of, you haven't solved the problem 337 00:15:03,053 --> 00:15:06,573 Speaker 2: for the people that are that are living rough and you. 338 00:15:06,493 --> 00:15:08,133 Speaker 10: Don't want to hide the problem around the corner. 339 00:15:08,373 --> 00:15:12,773 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, Yeah, yeah, Now, Brian, thank you very much 340 00:15:12,773 --> 00:15:13,493 Speaker 3: for giving us a buzz. 341 00:15:13,533 --> 00:15:16,213 Speaker 4: Really appreciate your thoughts. You have a good afternoon. Oh 342 00:15:16,293 --> 00:15:19,253 Speaker 4: one hundred and eighty ten eighty. Do you share Brian's thoughts? 343 00:15:19,253 --> 00:15:22,973 Speaker 4: I mean, there was an incident before the Sydney Olympics 344 00:15:22,973 --> 00:15:25,893 Speaker 4: where the city went through the streets and they were 345 00:15:25,973 --> 00:15:29,253 Speaker 4: literally spraying homeless people with hoses and you see a 346 00:15:29,253 --> 00:15:31,973 Speaker 4: few ticks come through like that, you know, every now 347 00:15:32,013 --> 00:15:35,733 Speaker 4: and again, but that is clearly quite a gross way 348 00:15:35,773 --> 00:15:37,373 Speaker 4: to deal with that situation. But as I say, it 349 00:15:37,373 --> 00:15:39,532 Speaker 4: happened in Sydney for goodness sake before the Olympics, to 350 00:15:39,573 --> 00:15:41,693 Speaker 4: make the streets nice and tidy. This to me actually 351 00:15:41,733 --> 00:15:44,493 Speaker 4: looks like an empathetic approach And isn't the police the 352 00:15:44,933 --> 00:15:48,253 Speaker 4: best equipped to be able to do what they've been 353 00:15:48,293 --> 00:15:50,293 Speaker 4: asked to do? As in, you know, go up to 354 00:15:50,333 --> 00:15:52,893 Speaker 4: these homeless people or people living on the street, as 355 00:15:52,933 --> 00:15:55,173 Speaker 4: you say, and open up that dialogue. 356 00:15:55,253 --> 00:15:56,573 Speaker 3: That to me is what it seems like. 357 00:15:56,653 --> 00:15:56,973 Speaker 2: It's not. 358 00:15:57,053 --> 00:15:59,013 Speaker 4: It just feels there's a lot of pushback to it, 359 00:15:59,053 --> 00:16:02,172 Speaker 4: say heavy handed. You're literally picking them up and you're 360 00:16:02,213 --> 00:16:03,733 Speaker 4: dragging them to another part of the city. 361 00:16:03,773 --> 00:16:04,733 Speaker 3: I don't see it that way. 362 00:16:04,933 --> 00:16:07,013 Speaker 4: I see it as opening that dialogue to say, hey, 363 00:16:07,053 --> 00:16:09,893 Speaker 4: are you doing okay? Can we direct you to somewhere 364 00:16:09,893 --> 00:16:11,933 Speaker 4: that can actually give you some assistance? Are you actually 365 00:16:11,973 --> 00:16:14,133 Speaker 4: a healthy here? Is there a potential that you need 366 00:16:14,213 --> 00:16:15,773 Speaker 4: to go to hospital for whatever was going on? 367 00:16:16,093 --> 00:16:19,413 Speaker 2: But is there because there used to be psychiatric hospitals 368 00:16:20,173 --> 00:16:22,893 Speaker 2: back in the day, didn't they Well, they called psychiatric hospitals, 369 00:16:22,933 --> 00:16:25,653 Speaker 2: and one I think that institutions and I think by 370 00:16:25,933 --> 00:16:29,213 Speaker 2: the nineteen nineties psychiatric hospitals basically closed, right, and they 371 00:16:29,253 --> 00:16:31,693 Speaker 2: decided that it was better to have people on the 372 00:16:31,693 --> 00:16:35,213 Speaker 2: street as part of the community, because there are people clearly, 373 00:16:35,253 --> 00:16:36,973 Speaker 2: you see them on the streets every day every time. 374 00:16:37,013 --> 00:16:39,893 Speaker 2: I every day I drive home from work here and 375 00:16:39,973 --> 00:16:44,853 Speaker 2: I drive up up Nelson Street, up hobs and streets. Sorry, yep, 376 00:16:45,173 --> 00:16:47,973 Speaker 2: drive down Nelson Stright if I'm driving up. If I'm 377 00:16:48,053 --> 00:16:51,013 Speaker 2: driving up Nelson Street, then I need help from psychiatric services. 378 00:16:51,053 --> 00:16:54,013 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're in trouble there. They're on the wrong side 379 00:16:54,013 --> 00:16:54,573 Speaker 3: of the one way. 380 00:16:54,693 --> 00:16:59,813 Speaker 2: But if I'm if anyway and there's people just talking 381 00:16:59,853 --> 00:17:04,372 Speaker 2: to themselves crossing roads, through the traffic, just yelping and 382 00:17:04,413 --> 00:17:09,013 Speaker 2: talking to themselves, that person can't be on the street. Yeah, 383 00:17:09,053 --> 00:17:10,693 Speaker 2: but is there someone to take Where do you take 384 00:17:10,733 --> 00:17:12,812 Speaker 2: that person? Because they're just going to end back out 385 00:17:12,813 --> 00:17:15,293 Speaker 2: on the street again. So do we have the equivalent 386 00:17:15,333 --> 00:17:16,693 Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know the answer. Do we 387 00:17:16,693 --> 00:17:18,893 Speaker 2: have the equivalent of being able to put someone into 388 00:17:19,813 --> 00:17:22,093 Speaker 2: the kind of care that they need when they're so 389 00:17:22,253 --> 00:17:25,413 Speaker 2: insane that they're yelling at things that don't exist while 390 00:17:25,413 --> 00:17:26,653 Speaker 2: they're walking out into traffic. 391 00:17:26,813 --> 00:17:28,893 Speaker 4: So great question, if you know, love to hear from you. Oh, 392 00:17:28,933 --> 00:17:32,533 Speaker 4: eight hundred and eighty ten eighty. Do those psychiatric services exist? 393 00:17:33,293 --> 00:17:35,773 Speaker 4: To the point where there is an ability to house 394 00:17:35,813 --> 00:17:37,493 Speaker 4: those people if need be love to hear from you. 395 00:17:37,573 --> 00:17:40,453 Speaker 4: Nine two ninety two is the text number back very shortly. 396 00:17:40,453 --> 00:17:41,533 Speaker 4: It's twenty five past one. 397 00:17:41,653 --> 00:17:47,653 Speaker 5: Bring back the asylums, the headlines and the hard questions. 398 00:17:47,813 --> 00:17:49,453 Speaker 5: It's the Make Asking Breakfast. 399 00:17:49,453 --> 00:17:51,053 Speaker 11: So what do we make of the Trump terrorist m 400 00:17:51,093 --> 00:17:53,013 Speaker 11: percent turned into fifteen percent for everyone? 401 00:17:53,093 --> 00:17:54,933 Speaker 7: Trade min is the top mcclay's will this overall? 402 00:17:55,053 --> 00:17:57,973 Speaker 12: This is potentially good news from these ole exports. Probably 403 00:17:57,973 --> 00:18:01,013 Speaker 12: not too much has changed other than even more uncertainty. 404 00:18:01,133 --> 00:18:04,253 Speaker 2: Do we are we owed? Will we chase a refund? 405 00:18:04,293 --> 00:18:06,133 Speaker 12: Well, that's going to have to be worked through. I 406 00:18:06,133 --> 00:18:07,933 Speaker 12: think there's going to be a lot of legal cases 407 00:18:07,933 --> 00:18:08,333 Speaker 12: over there. 408 00:18:08,653 --> 00:18:10,532 Speaker 2: The Prime Minister is with us. Don't know that you 409 00:18:10,533 --> 00:18:12,333 Speaker 2: can add much more than what he had. And if 410 00:18:12,493 --> 00:18:16,812 Speaker 2: it's fifteen percent for everyone and everything, our beef's then 411 00:18:16,893 --> 00:18:19,413 Speaker 2: in trouble, isn't it. Given it sits this morning at zero. 412 00:18:19,253 --> 00:18:21,653 Speaker 3: As I understood, our beef is sitting outside of all 413 00:18:21,693 --> 00:18:21,853 Speaker 3: of that. 414 00:18:21,893 --> 00:18:24,973 Speaker 2: But it's a pretty fluid situation. Back tomorrow at six 415 00:18:25,013 --> 00:18:28,293 Speaker 2: am the Mic Hosking Breakfast with the Defendant News Talk. 416 00:18:28,173 --> 00:18:31,453 Speaker 3: Z B very good afternoons. Youre it's twenty eight past one. 417 00:18:31,493 --> 00:18:33,333 Speaker 4: So we're talking about the new police powers to crack 418 00:18:33,373 --> 00:18:37,053 Speaker 4: down on beggars, rough sleepers, and people displaying disorderly, disruptive, threatening, 419 00:18:37,173 --> 00:18:40,573 Speaker 4: or intimidating behavior. So just briefly going through what it 420 00:18:40,613 --> 00:18:43,213 Speaker 4: will mean in the summary offenses acts, so as mentioned, 421 00:18:43,333 --> 00:18:47,413 Speaker 4: people displaying disorderly, disruptive, threatening behavior, obstructing or impeding someone 422 00:18:47,573 --> 00:18:50,333 Speaker 4: entering a business, breaching the peace, begging in all forms, 423 00:18:50,613 --> 00:18:54,973 Speaker 4: rough sleeping, displaying behavior indicating an intent to inhabit a 424 00:18:55,013 --> 00:18:57,213 Speaker 4: public place that will be in the law right. 425 00:18:57,293 --> 00:18:58,773 Speaker 2: So this is a bit like because you've already got 426 00:18:58,773 --> 00:19:01,213 Speaker 2: breach of the peace right, but that's kind of a 427 00:19:01,293 --> 00:19:05,093 Speaker 2: high threshold. There has to be some kind of imminent risk. Yes, 428 00:19:05,213 --> 00:19:08,173 Speaker 2: there's also dislowered disorderly already, these are things that already 429 00:19:08,173 --> 00:19:13,133 Speaker 2: have disorderly or offensive behavior. That's a summary offensive act, trespass, 430 00:19:13,213 --> 00:19:17,573 Speaker 2: which doesn't you know, include public places obstruction offenses. So 431 00:19:18,173 --> 00:19:20,533 Speaker 2: it's it's pumping up what they OVERHD. But I think 432 00:19:20,533 --> 00:19:23,532 Speaker 2: the term move on is what's what people don't like, 433 00:19:23,613 --> 00:19:26,133 Speaker 2: because you're just moving people on. Whereas most people would 434 00:19:26,173 --> 00:19:28,533 Speaker 2: think would hope that these people can get some help. 435 00:19:28,613 --> 00:19:30,653 Speaker 3: Yeah, yep, exactly, plenty of come through. 436 00:19:30,693 --> 00:19:37,133 Speaker 2: Hey, guys, I'm involved with a charity that I'm sorry, sorry, 437 00:19:37,893 --> 00:19:40,253 Speaker 2: I need a glass of water. Hi, guys, I'm involved 438 00:19:40,253 --> 00:19:42,173 Speaker 2: with a charity that supplies the police with boxes of 439 00:19:42,253 --> 00:19:45,333 Speaker 2: essential supplies that they give to these homeless people when 440 00:19:45,373 --> 00:19:47,532 Speaker 2: they move them on. They don't just kick their ass 441 00:19:47,573 --> 00:19:49,893 Speaker 2: and send them flying. They actually care about them and 442 00:19:50,013 --> 00:19:52,173 Speaker 2: help them as much as they can. They just have 443 00:19:52,293 --> 00:19:55,853 Speaker 2: not had the illegal right to do so until this point. 444 00:19:55,933 --> 00:20:00,973 Speaker 2: Thank you so much for your text. Whereas this person says, guys, 445 00:20:01,733 --> 00:20:07,533 Speaker 2: oh no, no, no, whereas it high guys, Yeah, here 446 00:20:07,573 --> 00:20:09,133 Speaker 2: we go.

Labour kept people in employment. 450 00:20:17,853 --> 00:20:20,733 Speaker 2: Even when COVID was raging, Robinson had business saving packages 451 00:20:20,773 --> 00:20:24,533 Speaker 2: that would be applied for businesses were saved that employed people. 452 00:20:24,813 --> 00:20:27,173 Speaker 2: We had bugger all unemployment. We were far better off 453 00:20:27,253 --> 00:20:29,973 Speaker 2: under labor.

So this was Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith and 488 00:22:23,733 --> 00:22:26,653 Speaker 4: Police Minister Mark Mitchell who announced that just quickly, this 489 00:22:26,773 --> 00:22:30,013 Speaker 4: is for people displaying to sort ofly disruptive, threatening, intimidating behavior, 490 00:22:30,093 --> 00:22:33,173 Speaker 4: obstructing or impeding someone entering their business, breaching the peace, 491 00:22:33,213 --> 00:22:36,533 Speaker 4: begging in all forms and rough sleeping. Here's a little 492 00:22:36,573 --> 00:22:38,973 Speaker 4: bit of Mark Mitchell, he was on with Carry a 493 00:22:39,013 --> 00:22:44,133 Speaker 4: little bit earlier today, but also justifying what these police 494 00:22:44,173 --> 00:22:48,173 Speaker 4: powers can mean in terms of helping people in vulnerable situations. 495 00:22:48,213 --> 00:22:50,133 Speaker 7: We have to be able to have some powers. That 496 00:22:50,213 --> 00:22:52,893 Speaker 7: actually says as a country, no, you can't sit up 497 00:22:52,893 --> 00:22:55,973 Speaker 7: and live on the footpath. But by the way, here 498 00:22:56,093 --> 00:22:57,493 Speaker 7: is all the work that we can do. We can 499 00:22:57,533 --> 00:23:00,573 Speaker 7: support you, We can find a way of giving you 500 00:23:00,613 --> 00:23:03,253 Speaker 7: a better options of not coming down on the street. 501 00:23:04,213 --> 00:23:04,413 Speaker 8: Yeah. 502 00:23:04,653 --> 00:23:07,133 Speaker 2: I get that, but I still I think the problem 503 00:23:07,173 --> 00:23:09,453 Speaker 2: is going to be the final two thousand dollars, which 504 00:23:09,533 --> 00:23:13,733 Speaker 2: just seems logically stupid. It does You're going to find 505 00:23:13,733 --> 00:23:14,933 Speaker 2: someone that's already on the street. 506 00:23:14,973 --> 00:23:16,413 Speaker 3: Yeah, they got that money, they can't pay it. 507 00:23:16,493 --> 00:23:18,773 Speaker 2: That seems like an easy win for opposition parties to 508 00:23:18,773 --> 00:23:21,333 Speaker 2: say to them, where you're finding homeless people two hundred 509 00:23:21,373 --> 00:23:23,573 Speaker 2: two thousand dollars and put it you know, maybe that 510 00:23:23,693 --> 00:23:25,453 Speaker 2: part of it, if it is, you have the rights 511 00:23:25,453 --> 00:23:27,893 Speaker 2: to move them on, to take them to get help. 512 00:23:27,933 --> 00:23:30,573 Speaker 2: I don't know. Yeah, But speaking of help, I was 513 00:23:30,573 --> 00:23:33,133 Speaker 2: talking about psychiatric services, and because I know all the 514 00:23:33,173 --> 00:23:35,933 Speaker 2: basically all the psychiatric hospitals I believe were closing in 515 00:23:35,933 --> 00:23:37,893 Speaker 2: the nineteen nineties, because when I was growing up in Dunedin, 516 00:23:38,253 --> 00:23:40,333 Speaker 2: Suddenly we were all talking about it. Suddenly there was 517 00:23:40,453 --> 00:23:43,453 Speaker 2: a whole lot of people with mental health issues running 518 00:23:43,493 --> 00:23:45,373 Speaker 2: up and down the Octic and talking to themselves. Yes, 519 00:23:45,493 --> 00:23:47,053 Speaker 2: Speedy was one of them. He's a nice guy. 520 00:23:47,173 --> 00:23:47,853 Speaker 3: Was he quite fast? 521 00:23:48,573 --> 00:23:50,093 Speaker 2: That's why it's called speed. Yeah, he used to walk 522 00:23:50,093 --> 00:23:53,013 Speaker 2: around with the radio on his shoulder at pace, right around. 523 00:23:53,293 --> 00:23:54,893 Speaker 2: But you know, I was always told because that was 524 00:23:54,933 --> 00:23:57,613 Speaker 2: the psychiatric hospitals that it closed down. But John, there 525 00:23:57,813 --> 00:23:59,853 Speaker 2: you know a bit about this and the psychiatric services 526 00:23:59,853 --> 00:24:00,613 Speaker 2: that are available now. 527 00:24:00,693 --> 00:24:02,453 Speaker 14: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yep, yep. 528 00:24:03,053 --> 00:24:05,173 Speaker 4: Well great to chat with you. So, so enlighten us 529 00:24:05,213 --> 00:24:06,693 Speaker 4: what sort of services exist? 530 00:24:06,933 --> 00:24:11,853 Speaker 14: Hey, So what happened in the early nineties is psychopedic 531 00:24:11,933 --> 00:24:16,133 Speaker 14: hospitals were shut. That's where people with an intellectual disability 532 00:24:16,813 --> 00:24:21,493 Speaker 14: were housed. And now they're housed under organizations such as IHC, 533 00:24:21,853 --> 00:24:24,813 Speaker 14: slash IDEA Services, and there's many others up and down 534 00:24:24,853 --> 00:24:27,413 Speaker 14: the country. So they live in lovely homes. And I 535 00:24:27,493 --> 00:24:30,453 Speaker 14: used to work in that industry. Okay, So that's what 536 00:24:30,573 --> 00:24:33,812 Speaker 14: happened there. When it comes to psychiatric hospitals, as in 537 00:24:34,013 --> 00:24:38,133 Speaker 14: terms of mental health mental distress, we still have those now. 538 00:24:38,933 --> 00:24:42,413 Speaker 14: I think all that's changed is that the demands for 539 00:24:42,493 --> 00:24:47,493 Speaker 14: those services. Think pre COVID, POSTVID, devent of phones. We 540 00:24:47,813 --> 00:24:50,093 Speaker 14: go on and on and on. We all know that 541 00:24:50,213 --> 00:24:55,253 Speaker 14: anxiety and depression whatever word we want to use in 542 00:24:55,293 --> 00:24:58,333 Speaker 14: that space, has gone up. Why well, we could spend 543 00:24:58,373 --> 00:25:03,053 Speaker 14: all day talking about that. And so the demands upon 544 00:25:03,133 --> 00:25:07,693 Speaker 14: those services are real and big, and I think, you know, 545 00:25:08,133 --> 00:25:10,853 Speaker 14: very governments are doing their best to address that. But 546 00:25:10,933 --> 00:25:13,653 Speaker 14: I think too, you've got a lot of NGOs out 547 00:25:13,653 --> 00:25:17,573 Speaker 14: there who work in this space in an outpatient type capacity. 548 00:25:18,653 --> 00:25:21,213 Speaker 14: I don't know how many private We do have some 549 00:25:21,373 --> 00:25:24,253 Speaker 14: private psychiatric hospitals up and down New Zelland so they 550 00:25:24,253 --> 00:25:27,693 Speaker 14: are available, but you've got to pay. But but yeah, 551 00:25:27,693 --> 00:25:29,413 Speaker 14: we still have psychiatric hospitals. 552 00:25:29,413 --> 00:25:30,973 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean, how do you end up in 553 00:25:31,013 --> 00:25:34,053 Speaker 2: a psychiatric hospital? John? What? What? What has happened? 554 00:25:34,213 --> 00:25:37,853 Speaker 14: Well, you can be referred there by your GP, or 555 00:25:37,893 --> 00:25:41,493 Speaker 14: you can present to an ED department. You'll usually be 556 00:25:41,613 --> 00:25:44,613 Speaker 14: assessed by the crisis team and they will make a 557 00:25:44,733 --> 00:25:49,373 Speaker 14: call on whether you can get admitted. 558 00:25:49,533 --> 00:25:52,733 Speaker 2: Can you can you be held there against your will? 559 00:25:52,973 --> 00:25:55,093 Speaker 2: Or is it something you have to voluntarily go into? 560 00:25:55,373 --> 00:25:55,813 Speaker 15: No? 561 00:25:55,813 --> 00:25:58,893 Speaker 14: No, Then it depends that laws still apply, so people 562 00:25:58,973 --> 00:26:02,573 Speaker 14: can be put under the Act. Yes they can. There's 563 00:26:02,613 --> 00:26:05,093 Speaker 14: a few papers that need to be signed and all that, 564 00:26:05,173 --> 00:26:08,532 Speaker 14: and usually then a person needs to be deemed to 565 00:26:08,573 --> 00:26:11,653 Speaker 14: be a risk to themselves or to others or both, 566 00:26:12,653 --> 00:26:15,093 Speaker 14: and that could get you a ticket for a stay, 567 00:26:15,693 --> 00:26:17,653 Speaker 14: say in a mental health board. 568 00:26:17,773 --> 00:26:17,933 Speaker 6: Yees. 569 00:26:18,293 --> 00:26:21,773 Speaker 2: So, I mean, thanks for clarifying this, John, I really 570 00:26:21,813 --> 00:26:24,853 Speaker 2: appreciate it. But what came what makes me think about 571 00:26:24,853 --> 00:26:26,653 Speaker 2: this is, as I was saying before, when I'm driving 572 00:26:26,693 --> 00:26:30,013 Speaker 2: around Auckland, I see a lot of people walking across 573 00:26:30,093 --> 00:26:32,773 Speaker 2: roads at pace, talking to people that don't exist, snapping 574 00:26:32,773 --> 00:26:35,733 Speaker 2: and yelling at different people, and I think that these 575 00:26:35,733 --> 00:26:41,053 Speaker 2: people are severely you know, you know, facing some severe problems. 576 00:26:41,493 --> 00:26:44,013 Speaker 2: So they must have been picked up at some point. 577 00:26:44,093 --> 00:26:48,493 Speaker 2: There must be someone out there approaching them. And is 578 00:26:48,533 --> 00:26:51,013 Speaker 2: there a pathway for them to get help currently? 579 00:26:51,973 --> 00:26:55,053 Speaker 14: Well, what I'd say is we'll take one step back. 580 00:26:55,493 --> 00:26:58,413 Speaker 14: So in defense of our police, there is a program 581 00:26:58,533 --> 00:27:03,333 Speaker 14: up and down New Zealand called si aw H. He 582 00:27:04,133 --> 00:27:06,173 Speaker 14: can refer people to John. 583 00:27:07,613 --> 00:27:09,333 Speaker 2: There you cut out in the middle of that acronym, 584 00:27:09,373 --> 00:27:09,813 Speaker 2: can you say. 585 00:27:09,773 --> 00:27:14,532 Speaker 14: Again, so Afie. The police have this resource in all 586 00:27:14,613 --> 00:27:18,653 Speaker 14: their phones to refer anybody's a deem in need of 587 00:27:18,893 --> 00:27:23,733 Speaker 14: a social service. And think of the spectrum of social services. 588 00:27:23,933 --> 00:27:26,333 Speaker 14: So our police do a wonderful job and that they 589 00:27:26,373 --> 00:27:30,333 Speaker 14: can refer anybody they want to any of these services. Now, 590 00:27:30,373 --> 00:27:34,333 Speaker 14: I think, what's this new legislation. The difference that it's 591 00:27:34,373 --> 00:27:37,493 Speaker 14: got is there's a little stick sitting behind it that 592 00:27:37,573 --> 00:27:40,653 Speaker 14: the police have now been given. So if I actually 593 00:27:40,653 --> 00:27:44,133 Speaker 14: support the police here, we have a police force by 594 00:27:44,213 --> 00:27:46,973 Speaker 14: and large that is good and they are trying to 595 00:27:47,093 --> 00:27:49,893 Speaker 14: help people. The problem is they do a lot of 596 00:27:49,973 --> 00:27:52,853 Speaker 14: social work stuff which they could then be out doing 597 00:27:52,893 --> 00:27:55,613 Speaker 14: other stuff which hey, we could go les. It's been 598 00:27:55,693 --> 00:27:58,893 Speaker 14: in the news, you know, that's been doing the work 599 00:27:58,933 --> 00:28:02,653 Speaker 14: that maybe some of our mental health institutions, organizations, et 600 00:28:02,733 --> 00:28:05,813 Speaker 14: cetera should have been doing all along. But they backed 601 00:28:05,893 --> 00:28:07,893 Speaker 14: up the truck and let the police didn't land. And 602 00:28:07,893 --> 00:28:10,253 Speaker 14: then the police we said, we ain't got the resources 603 00:28:10,293 --> 00:28:12,413 Speaker 14: for this, and we can talk about that because that's 604 00:28:12,493 --> 00:28:15,173 Speaker 14: fairly current in the news, or at least once twelve 605 00:28:15,173 --> 00:28:17,572 Speaker 14: months ago. So I mean that's why we end up 606 00:28:17,613 --> 00:28:21,333 Speaker 14: where we are, because unless you when there's a vacuum, 607 00:28:21,373 --> 00:28:23,493 Speaker 14: things go wrong, don't they. Now getting back to what 608 00:28:23,533 --> 00:28:26,293 Speaker 14: you said, why are we seeing people on our streets 609 00:28:26,373 --> 00:28:29,133 Speaker 14: talking to themselves and all that, let's just throw into 610 00:28:29,173 --> 00:28:33,853 Speaker 14: the mix. Addictions. Like drugs in this country used to 611 00:28:33,893 --> 00:28:36,093 Speaker 14: be pretty simple, but now it's like a supermark. You 612 00:28:36,093 --> 00:28:38,773 Speaker 14: can get almost anything. There's a couple that you can't, 613 00:28:38,853 --> 00:28:41,693 Speaker 14: and right please because they keep them out. But you know, 614 00:28:41,813 --> 00:28:45,733 Speaker 14: let's throw drugs and mental health together and I could 615 00:28:45,813 --> 00:28:51,453 Speaker 14: get onto my soapbox right now and oh we're just silly, 616 00:28:51,573 --> 00:28:52,093 Speaker 14: We're silly. 617 00:28:52,373 --> 00:28:55,373 Speaker 2: So think some of these drugs, because when I think 618 00:28:55,413 --> 00:28:58,013 Speaker 2: of the type of drugs that people that are you know, 619 00:28:59,173 --> 00:29:01,573 Speaker 2: you know, living rough, I think the type of drugs 620 00:29:01,573 --> 00:29:03,813 Speaker 2: they'd be taking. I don't know, I don't know much 621 00:29:03,813 --> 00:29:06,853 Speaker 2: about it, but I don't imagine them taking hallucinogens. But 622 00:29:07,453 --> 00:29:09,453 Speaker 2: I guess I mean simple as you know, back in 623 00:29:09,453 --> 00:29:12,133 Speaker 2: the day, people huffing petrol made them hallucinate. So you 624 00:29:12,133 --> 00:29:14,693 Speaker 2: think a certain amount of these people that are marching 625 00:29:14,693 --> 00:29:19,533 Speaker 2: around talking to two invisible things have taken hallucinogens of some. 626 00:29:19,453 --> 00:29:22,173 Speaker 14: Sort, Well, well they could. I mean, remember, there's a 627 00:29:22,253 --> 00:29:26,853 Speaker 14: myriad of drugs at different price points, okay and without 628 00:29:26,973 --> 00:29:29,453 Speaker 14: It's like I know quite a lot about the drug 629 00:29:29,493 --> 00:29:34,573 Speaker 14: fielder working out blah blah blah. So mate, there's ways 630 00:29:34,653 --> 00:29:37,333 Speaker 14: of making drugs And then you could always go and 631 00:29:37,493 --> 00:29:40,253 Speaker 14: make some soup out of a certain plant that we 632 00:29:40,333 --> 00:29:42,493 Speaker 14: all know about, but nobody uses that because it's such 633 00:29:42,493 --> 00:29:44,013 Speaker 14: a horrible high and they feel. 634 00:29:43,733 --> 00:29:47,133 Speaker 2: So genule, you know, talk about their datura flowers from 635 00:29:47,133 --> 00:29:51,453 Speaker 2: the garden of how I am. That's not good. 636 00:29:52,413 --> 00:29:55,253 Speaker 14: No, that's not good. And there's many cheap and nasty 637 00:29:55,333 --> 00:29:59,093 Speaker 14: drugs that aren't good. And then remember people sometimes go, 638 00:29:59,293 --> 00:30:01,173 Speaker 14: I can make that go a bit further, so they 639 00:30:01,213 --> 00:30:04,133 Speaker 14: cut it with who knows what, and that's probably not 640 00:30:04,213 --> 00:30:06,893 Speaker 14: good for you either. But even some pure drugs, and 641 00:30:06,933 --> 00:30:09,453 Speaker 14: they're purest form when you're abuse them, those they are 642 00:30:09,493 --> 00:30:12,453 Speaker 14: not good. They never were good. Drugs are not good, 643 00:30:12,813 --> 00:30:17,893 Speaker 14: full stop. And I think there is this few that's 644 00:30:18,053 --> 00:30:20,453 Speaker 14: kind of saying alcohol is really bad, and yes it 645 00:30:20,533 --> 00:30:22,613 Speaker 14: is in the wrong hands, it's a flip and monster. 646 00:30:23,373 --> 00:30:27,413 Speaker 14: But let's talk about drugs, man. They are wrecking this country. 647 00:30:27,453 --> 00:30:30,213 Speaker 14: I'll tell you a fact. In this country, when you 648 00:30:30,293 --> 00:30:33,613 Speaker 14: do wastewater testing, have you ever heard them talk about 649 00:30:33,653 --> 00:30:37,613 Speaker 14: cannabis in response to that? No, because in order to 650 00:30:37,733 --> 00:30:40,773 Speaker 14: test cannabis in our waste water, you've got to spend 651 00:30:40,773 --> 00:30:43,613 Speaker 14: a more money because it's fat soluble. So what if 652 00:30:43,653 --> 00:30:46,093 Speaker 14: I found out by ringing the people who do it. 653 00:30:46,093 --> 00:30:49,053 Speaker 14: They said, when they do test for cannabis, the drug 654 00:30:49,093 --> 00:30:52,053 Speaker 14: that is used in this country more than any other 655 00:30:52,413 --> 00:30:57,613 Speaker 14: drug combined is what cannabis. So let's talk about that. 656 00:30:57,653 --> 00:31:00,053 Speaker 14: But nobody talks about that anymore because they think it's 657 00:31:00,093 --> 00:31:03,893 Speaker 14: a natural we've made that is such a wrecker's. 658 00:31:03,893 --> 00:31:07,733 Speaker 2: So you think cannabis can have the kind of site 659 00:31:08,173 --> 00:31:12,573 Speaker 2: keatric effects on people that you know means that they 660 00:31:12,573 --> 00:31:15,453 Speaker 2: can't run normal life, they can't hold down a job, 661 00:31:15,493 --> 00:31:16,893 Speaker 2: hold a house that can get to that state. 662 00:31:17,053 --> 00:31:19,973 Speaker 14: Well, hey, all I would say to that is when 663 00:31:20,013 --> 00:31:24,733 Speaker 14: we talked about legalization, why did the Royal Australasian College 664 00:31:24,733 --> 00:31:30,093 Speaker 14: of Psychiatrists submit vehere mentally against us that what you 665 00:31:30,133 --> 00:31:32,733 Speaker 14: want to do is find a psychiatrist who works in 666 00:31:32,773 --> 00:31:35,733 Speaker 14: that space and get them to tell you what they 667 00:31:35,813 --> 00:31:39,373 Speaker 14: see cannabis doing to people in New Zealand today. And 668 00:31:39,493 --> 00:31:42,173 Speaker 14: I can tell you now it is all bad because 669 00:31:42,213 --> 00:31:45,093 Speaker 14: the cannabis of today is nothing like woodstop weed. 670 00:31:45,093 --> 00:31:47,613 Speaker 2: I wish it was and people had this kind of 671 00:31:47,653 --> 00:31:50,853 Speaker 2: thing where you know, cannabis has been portrayed in a 672 00:31:50,853 --> 00:31:53,813 Speaker 2: way as just being all good, it's all fine, it's harmless, 673 00:31:53,853 --> 00:31:56,173 Speaker 2: handy drug. No one ever assaulted anyone on cannabis all 674 00:31:56,213 --> 00:31:56,893 Speaker 2: that kind of stuff. 675 00:31:56,933 --> 00:32:00,933 Speaker 14: But no, I nearly got my head punched in by 676 00:32:00,973 --> 00:32:04,093 Speaker 14: a guy using medicinal cannabis in the last six months. 677 00:32:04,133 --> 00:32:07,373 Speaker 14: I was worried because I happened to be somewhere in 678 00:32:07,453 --> 00:32:11,093 Speaker 14: my job alone and man, did he fire up. It 679 00:32:11,213 --> 00:32:15,533 Speaker 14: is so potent. These people get very, very jangled. Not 680 00:32:15,813 --> 00:32:17,613 Speaker 14: like the weed that you and I grew up with, 681 00:32:17,773 --> 00:32:20,653 Speaker 14: Nothing like it. And you know, I could unpack all 682 00:32:20,653 --> 00:32:23,573 Speaker 14: the numbers and tell you it's at eighteen percent straight 683 00:32:23,573 --> 00:32:25,813 Speaker 14: out of the ground now, and the CBDs say at 684 00:32:25,853 --> 00:32:29,293 Speaker 14: one to three would stop weed with three percent THHC 685 00:32:29,973 --> 00:32:33,893 Speaker 14: and one to three percent CBD, So those numbers were similar. 686 00:32:34,133 --> 00:32:36,693 Speaker 14: So it didn't bend your head. And by the way, 687 00:32:37,013 --> 00:32:40,373 Speaker 14: I haven't even started to talk to you about medicinal cannabis. 688 00:32:40,493 --> 00:32:44,053 Speaker 14: That's a whole new subject. I will say this. There's 689 00:32:44,093 --> 00:32:48,133 Speaker 14: an agency out there that's charged with looking after our children, 690 00:32:48,573 --> 00:32:51,373 Speaker 14: and they are worried because they are now seeing parents 691 00:32:51,413 --> 00:32:54,133 Speaker 14: so stoned that they wouldn't know which ways up. And 692 00:32:54,173 --> 00:32:59,133 Speaker 14: then what do these parents produce? A script for what medicinal. 693 00:32:58,533 --> 00:33:03,293 Speaker 4: Cannabis terrifying John incredibly enlightening, great to chat with you. 694 00:33:03,733 --> 00:33:05,053 Speaker 3: Thank you very much for your thoughts. 695 00:33:05,173 --> 00:33:08,893 Speaker 2: It's an incredibly complex issue, Ben says HiMAT two thousand 696 00:33:08,933 --> 00:33:11,133 Speaker 2: dollars fine is a maximum fine, just like the maximum 697 00:33:11,173 --> 00:33:13,893 Speaker 2: prison sentence for burglary is ten years. But most burglars 698 00:33:14,133 --> 00:33:19,093 Speaker 2: get committed based sentences. There has to be some punishment. 699 00:33:19,093 --> 00:33:21,293 Speaker 2: More likely they would get a fine of fifty dollars 700 00:33:21,333 --> 00:33:24,653 Speaker 2: and referred to social services. Yeah, I get that, Ben, 701 00:33:24,733 --> 00:33:27,213 Speaker 2: But what I'm what I'm sort of saying is the 702 00:33:27,573 --> 00:33:30,693 Speaker 2: knee jerk response to this as and why I'm saying 703 00:33:30,693 --> 00:33:33,333 Speaker 2: that the government doesn't necessarily have the best messaging as 704 00:33:33,373 --> 00:33:35,933 Speaker 2: people go what you want to find homeless people two 705 00:33:35,933 --> 00:33:37,893 Speaker 2: thousand dollars, that's not going to work. 706 00:33:37,893 --> 00:33:40,453 Speaker 4: It's an easy line for any opposing groups who want 707 00:33:40,453 --> 00:33:41,133 Speaker 4: to push back on this. 708 00:33:41,533 --> 00:33:43,453 Speaker 2: Yeah, So I don't know how you go around that 709 00:33:43,573 --> 00:33:46,653 Speaker 2: where you make it a crime such that they can 710 00:33:46,693 --> 00:33:51,173 Speaker 2: take them to social services, but without the seemingly ridiculous 711 00:33:51,173 --> 00:33:53,693 Speaker 2: potential for a maximum fine of two thousand dollars. 712 00:33:53,773 --> 00:33:55,413 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's complex, very complex. 713 00:33:55,413 --> 00:33:57,253 Speaker 4: So one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number 714 00:33:57,293 --> 00:33:59,693 Speaker 4: to call bag very shortly, it is fourteen to two. 715 00:34:00,173 --> 00:34:03,453 Speaker 1: The big stories, the big issues, to the big trends 716 00:34:03,493 --> 00:34:07,373 Speaker 1: and everything in between.

So one hundred and eighty ten 723 00:34:18,733 --> 00:34:22,853 Speaker 3: eighty is that number to call Sharon? How are you hi? 724 00:34:23,453 --> 00:34:27,213 Speaker 11: I just wonder if these numbers got so huge in 725 00:34:27,253 --> 00:34:31,093 Speaker 11: the center of Auckland because of the big buildings that 726 00:34:31,173 --> 00:34:36,493 Speaker 11: they put all mentally ill and homeless in. Was under 727 00:34:36,573 --> 00:34:38,813 Speaker 11: labor as it happens, but anyway, it was going to 728 00:34:38,813 --> 00:34:42,373 Speaker 11: be wrap around services. I know a young woman, she's lovely. 729 00:34:42,813 --> 00:34:45,453 Speaker 11: Wouldn't her to fly? She's very gentle and very lovely. 730 00:34:45,453 --> 00:34:47,973 Speaker 11: About every two or three years she goes insane and 731 00:34:48,013 --> 00:34:51,653 Speaker 11: then she is put into hospital and you can be sectioned, 732 00:34:51,813 --> 00:34:55,133 Speaker 11: where a caring person isay, oh my god. You know 733 00:34:55,333 --> 00:34:57,613 Speaker 11: she's now a danger to herself. She's wandering around the 734 00:34:57,653 --> 00:35:01,653 Speaker 11: city and she needs rescuing from herself. So they are available, 735 00:35:01,653 --> 00:35:05,493 Speaker 11: but there's no real wrap around services like for her 736 00:35:05,573 --> 00:35:08,773 Speaker 11: there is. There'll be someone that will go in, however 737 00:35:08,893 --> 00:35:11,813 Speaker 11: often and make her take a medication basically and keep 738 00:35:11,853 --> 00:35:14,453 Speaker 11: her on a straight and narrow But the other people 739 00:35:14,653 --> 00:35:18,493 Speaker 11: living in those buildings are really dangerous, you know, even 740 00:35:18,573 --> 00:35:21,173 Speaker 11: though they had security maybe on the door or something 741 00:35:21,253 --> 00:35:24,212 Speaker 11: like that. She's been assaulted in the lift, she's been 742 00:35:24,333 --> 00:35:26,093 Speaker 11: pushed out of the way when she's opened the door 743 00:35:26,133 --> 00:35:29,293 Speaker 11: and run off with her TV. You know, it's just 744 00:35:29,373 --> 00:35:32,533 Speaker 11: not healthy at all. And when she's well, she's fine, 745 00:35:33,093 --> 00:35:37,653 Speaker 11: but the people that's around her, it's just awful. Anyway, 746 00:35:37,653 --> 00:35:41,212 Speaker 11: they decided that she was such a nice, clean kid 747 00:35:41,293 --> 00:35:44,973 Speaker 11: for her property person that they would offer her a 748 00:35:45,013 --> 00:35:48,853 Speaker 11: little unit out Northcote somewhere, and it had its own 749 00:35:48,893 --> 00:35:51,133 Speaker 11: little backyard and section and everything. And she went and 750 00:35:51,173 --> 00:35:53,013 Speaker 11: looked at it, and they took her outside to the 751 00:35:53,053 --> 00:35:56,212 Speaker 11: back decking and there were people next door making tea 752 00:35:56,293 --> 00:35:57,853 Speaker 11: and she said, I won't be safe here. 753 00:35:58,773 --> 00:35:58,973 Speaker 10: Yeah. 754 00:35:59,453 --> 00:36:01,533 Speaker 2: See, that's complicated. It's not as easy as just giving 755 00:36:01,533 --> 00:36:03,653 Speaker 2: people homes. A bunch of people are texting and saying, 756 00:36:03,693 --> 00:36:07,293 Speaker 2: just give everyone a home. It would be cheaper. But 757 00:36:07,373 --> 00:36:08,772 Speaker 2: if you give them a home and then not safe 758 00:36:08,813 --> 00:36:10,053 Speaker 2: in the home, when you give them a home and 759 00:36:10,093 --> 00:36:14,373 Speaker 2: they're psychiatrically, you know they don't they have problems. Yeah, 760 00:36:14,573 --> 00:36:16,493 Speaker 2: then they're not going to stay in the home exactly. 761 00:36:16,533 --> 00:36:18,693 Speaker 2: It's so much more complicated than people like to make it. 762 00:36:18,773 --> 00:36:21,333 Speaker 4: Yeah, very true, Sharon, thank you very much for giving 763 00:36:21,413 --> 00:36:23,573 Speaker 4: us a ring.

It is eight minutes 764 00:36:23,653 --> 00:36:24,013 Speaker 4: to two. 765 00:36:25,413 --> 00:36:28,973 Speaker 1: Matt Heath, Taylor Adams taking your calls on eight hundred 766 00:36:29,013 --> 00:36:29,733 Speaker 1: and eighty Tight. 767 00:36:29,933 --> 00:36:33,053 Speaker 5: It's mad Heath and Taylor Adams afternoons. 768 00:36:32,533 --> 00:36:36,533 Speaker 4: News Talks, b News news Talks. There'd be it is 769 00:36:36,733 --> 00:36:40,413 Speaker 4: six minutes to two. Being a great discussion. 770 00:36:41,373 --> 00:36:44,853 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I don't know the species. Send them all 771 00:36:44,893 --> 00:36:46,813 Speaker 2: to Duneda and no one will notice the difference between 772 00:36:46,813 --> 00:36:48,053 Speaker 2: them and the rest of the population. 773 00:36:48,293 --> 00:36:48,493 Speaker 3: Rough. 774 00:36:48,853 --> 00:36:51,133 Speaker 2: Wow, you see the thing in Danita and when I 775 00:36:51,333 --> 00:36:53,692 Speaker 2: when I will have down there to dress like homes. 776 00:36:54,173 --> 00:36:55,973 Speaker 3: Well, it's cold, Yeah, it's very cold. 777 00:36:55,973 --> 00:36:57,973 Speaker 2: And I was a student, was poor, so I had 778 00:36:58,053 --> 00:37:00,373 Speaker 2: to buy opshop stuff. But I don't think that's that. 779 00:37:00,653 --> 00:37:02,133 Speaker 2: I think there's a little bit of a problem with 780 00:37:02,133 --> 00:37:05,253 Speaker 2: that there as well. Anyway, I've been thinking about this 781 00:37:05,333 --> 00:37:08,773 Speaker 2: and empathy is easily hijacked and that and I think 782 00:37:08,773 --> 00:37:11,212 Speaker 2: that's a problem with these discussions and all of us 783 00:37:11,213 --> 00:37:14,652 Speaker 2: would prefer that we didn't have people living rough all 784 00:37:14,693 --> 00:37:16,853 Speaker 2: of us. But we also have to have empathy for 785 00:37:16,893 --> 00:37:19,172 Speaker 2: people trying to run a business and how stressed they 786 00:37:19,213 --> 00:37:21,573 Speaker 2: are and they have to employ people, and people have 787 00:37:21,573 --> 00:37:23,733 Speaker 2: to go to work, and people have to use the centers. 788 00:37:23,773 --> 00:37:26,013 Speaker 2: So our empathy has to be wide enough to include them, 789 00:37:26,453 --> 00:37:29,413 Speaker 2: not just the people that are living rough. And homelessness 790 00:37:29,413 --> 00:37:33,692 Speaker 2: is obviously it obviously reflects deeper mental health, drug and 791 00:37:33,853 --> 00:37:38,093 Speaker 2: housing issues, social social services gaps, but it is much 792 00:37:38,133 --> 00:37:40,533 Speaker 2: more complex than just giving people somewhere to live. That 793 00:37:40,733 --> 00:37:43,373 Speaker 2: just doesn't that's just saying, oh, well, we'll give them 794 00:37:43,373 --> 00:37:45,773 Speaker 2: a home, put them in it. That doesn't solve the problem, 795 00:37:45,893 --> 00:37:47,813 Speaker 2: give them a job and they're good to go. It's 796 00:37:47,933 --> 00:37:50,172 Speaker 2: much more complicated than that. And anyone that pretends that's 797 00:37:50,173 --> 00:37:53,973 Speaker 2: as simple ass that is probably trying to score political points. 798 00:37:55,973 --> 00:37:59,533 Speaker 2: So maybe giving police practical tools at an early stage 799 00:37:59,893 --> 00:38:02,933 Speaker 2: might just get our most vulnerable people in contact with 800 00:38:02,973 --> 00:38:08,853 Speaker 2: support services before terrible things happen and they become part 801 00:38:08,853 --> 00:38:12,172 Speaker 2: of the criminal justice system and things just spiral down 802 00:38:12,173 --> 00:38:16,493 Speaker 2: from there. So maybe maybe this is the opportunity where 803 00:38:16,493 --> 00:38:18,933 Speaker 2: the police can go, well, we have the tools now, 804 00:38:18,973 --> 00:38:22,172 Speaker 2: to say we can move you on, and by moving on, 805 00:38:22,693 --> 00:38:24,693 Speaker 2: they actually put them in contact with the people that 806 00:38:24,733 --> 00:38:25,213 Speaker 2: can help them. 807 00:38:25,293 --> 00:38:27,413 Speaker 4: Yep, and I think that's something we all want. A 808 00:38:27,613 --> 00:38:30,693 Speaker 4: great discussion. Thank you very much to everyone who called 809 00:38:30,733 --> 00:38:33,493 Speaker 4: and text on there.

This technology could be 813 00:38:43,213 --> 00:38:45,653 Speaker 4: a game change when it comes to power generation and costs. 814 00:38:45,853 --> 00:38:48,213 Speaker 4: Very technical and complicated, so we're going to break it 815 00:38:48,253 --> 00:38:52,293 Speaker 4: down with doctor Ratu and also ask you the question 816 00:38:52,493 --> 00:38:54,413 Speaker 4: is this the way of the future when it comes 817 00:38:54,453 --> 00:38:58,053 Speaker 4: to electricity generation? That is coming next looking forward to that. 818 00:38:58,173 --> 00:39:00,013 Speaker 4: It is three minutes to two. 819 00:39:00,133 --> 00:39:00,573 Speaker 3: Back in a. 820 00:39:00,493 --> 00:39:03,893 Speaker 5: Mow talking with you all.

It is 824 00:39:14,053 --> 00:39:16,773 Speaker 4: six pass two, so this is going to be fascinating. 825 00:39:16,813 --> 00:39:19,733 Speaker 4: Ken we company open Star Technologies. I've taken a serious 826 00:39:19,733 --> 00:39:23,133 Speaker 4: step forward in the global race towards nuclear fusion. So 827 00:39:23,213 --> 00:39:25,733 Speaker 4: this is backed by thirty five million dollars in government funding. 828 00:39:25,773 --> 00:39:30,413 Speaker 4: They've successfully levitated a half ton superconducting magnet. Fascinating stuff. 829 00:39:30,573 --> 00:39:32,373 Speaker 4: So very shortly we are going to be speaking to 830 00:39:32,533 --> 00:39:37,692 Speaker 4: CEO doctor Radtu Mattider, who is leading up this particular 831 00:39:37,973 --> 00:39:40,813 Speaker 4: experiment and the funding behind it. Fascinating guy. 832 00:39:41,173 --> 00:39:45,413 Speaker 2: When I did the we gave him New Zealand of 833 00:39:45,413 --> 00:39:48,013 Speaker 2: the Week last week. Yes, from the high level of 834 00:39:48,093 --> 00:39:50,013 Speaker 2: tech that they're heading down there, it's phenomenal. It makes 835 00:39:50,013 --> 00:39:51,853 Speaker 2: you proud to be a key with these people coming through. 836 00:39:51,933 --> 00:39:52,533 Speaker 3: And well earned. 837 00:39:52,613 --> 00:39:52,853 Speaker 2: Yeah. 838 00:39:52,933 --> 00:39:53,692 Speaker 3: Yeah, but. 839 00:39:55,333 --> 00:39:57,893 Speaker 2: I think I got something severely wrong when I gave 840 00:39:57,933 --> 00:39:59,933 Speaker 2: him because you're trying to award someone for this, but 841 00:40:00,053 --> 00:40:02,253 Speaker 2: to be honest, I don't really fully understand what they 842 00:40:02,293 --> 00:40:02,613 Speaker 2: were doing. 843 00:40:02,813 --> 00:40:04,933 Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, it's incredibly complicated. 844 00:40:04,973 --> 00:40:06,813 Speaker 2: So it'd be good talking to him. We'll ask them 845 00:40:06,813 --> 00:40:09,573 Speaker 2: some questions because when I was ordering him New Zealand 846 00:40:09,573 --> 00:40:11,573 Speaker 2: of the Week, I might have been awarding him for 847 00:40:11,613 --> 00:40:12,773 Speaker 2: the wrong thing, if you see what I'm saying. 848 00:40:12,893 --> 00:40:15,533 Speaker 4: Yeah, but we're going to have a chat to to next. 849 00:40:15,573 --> 00:40:17,652 Speaker 4: But we also want to put to you after we 850 00:40:17,693 --> 00:40:19,693 Speaker 4: have a chat with him, what is the future of 851 00:40:19,893 --> 00:40:23,053 Speaker 4: energy in New Zealand. And when you hear him, hopefully 852 00:40:23,093 --> 00:40:24,493 Speaker 4: We're going to break it down and try and get 853 00:40:24,533 --> 00:40:27,573 Speaker 4: it in simple terms. But whether that future is something 854 00:40:27,653 --> 00:40:32,413 Speaker 4: like fusion, whether it is sustainable types of energy electricity 855 00:40:32,533 --> 00:40:34,213 Speaker 4: or nuclear just straight up. 856 00:40:34,173 --> 00:40:36,733 Speaker 2: Yeah, efficient or fusion solar power? Do you think the 857 00:40:36,733 --> 00:40:39,733 Speaker 2: future of energy in New Zealand is wind power? You know? 858 00:40:39,973 --> 00:40:43,573 Speaker 2: Is it green hydrogen? People talk about green hydrogen. Is 859 00:40:43,613 --> 00:40:47,973 Speaker 2: it geothermal? Is it tidal and wave energy? Is it 860 00:40:48,093 --> 00:40:48,973 Speaker 2: bio energy? 861 00:40:49,533 --> 00:40:49,733 Speaker 10: You know? 862 00:40:49,813 --> 00:40:53,253 Speaker 2: People are thinking about space based solar shoving up satellites. 863 00:40:53,293 --> 00:40:54,733 Speaker 2: What do you think the future of energy in New 864 00:40:54,813 --> 00:40:58,773 Speaker 2: Zealand is? Thank goodness we have hydro electrics in New 865 00:40:58,853 --> 00:41:01,293 Speaker 2: Zealand because we're actually incredibly green country. 866 00:41:01,333 --> 00:41:03,613 Speaker 3: When it comes to that here they're doing some heavy lifting. 867 00:41:03,933 --> 00:41:06,013 Speaker 3: Is it gas? Natural gas? 868 00:41:06,453 --> 00:41:08,973 Speaker 4: Come on through Ian one hundred and eighty ten is 869 00:41:08,973 --> 00:41:11,093 Speaker 4: that number to call? What is the future of energy 870 00:41:11,173 --> 00:41:15,893 Speaker 4: generation in New Zealand? But coming up next, doctor Ratu Mathieda. 871 00:41:16,013 --> 00:41:19,013 Speaker 4: It is eight past two, back very shortly here on 872 00:41:19,093 --> 00:41:20,212 Speaker 4: News Talk z BEE. 873 00:41:20,893 --> 00:41:25,493 Speaker 1: Wow your home of afternoon talk, mad Heathen Taylor Adams 874 00:41:25,533 --> 00:41:29,213 Speaker 1: Afternoons call Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty Youth Talk. 875 00:41:29,133 --> 00:41:31,573 Speaker 5: ZEDB, News Talks EDB. 876 00:41:31,733 --> 00:41:34,653 Speaker 4: Can we company open Star Technologies has taken a serious 877 00:41:34,693 --> 00:41:38,453 Speaker 4: step forward in the global race towards nuclear fusion. Backed 878 00:41:38,453 --> 00:41:41,253 Speaker 4: by thirty five million dollars in government funding, they've successfully 879 00:41:41,333 --> 00:41:45,773 Speaker 4: levitated a halftime super conducting magnet confining a cloud of 880 00:41:45,853 --> 00:41:48,973 Speaker 4: ultra hot plasma. Sounds very technical, So what does that 881 00:41:49,053 --> 00:41:51,573 Speaker 4: all really mean and what could be the future of 882 00:41:51,653 --> 00:41:56,213 Speaker 4: this technology? Doctor Ratu Matida joins us. Now, Ratu, very 883 00:41:56,213 --> 00:41:56,973 Speaker 4: good afternoon to you. 884 00:41:57,653 --> 00:41:59,093 Speaker 6: Yeah, good afternoon to Utah. 885 00:41:59,373 --> 00:42:01,493 Speaker 2: If you don't mind, it's also Matt here as well, 886 00:42:01,533 --> 00:42:04,213 Speaker 2: if you don't mind. Let's get right back to the 887 00:42:04,373 --> 00:42:07,493 Speaker 2: very basics, because if we're on a very few people 888 00:42:07,813 --> 00:42:10,853 Speaker 2: know anything about this really. So if we take it 889 00:42:10,933 --> 00:42:13,893 Speaker 2: right back to the basics, what is the difference between 890 00:42:14,013 --> 00:42:14,933 Speaker 2: fission and fusion. 891 00:42:17,053 --> 00:42:19,493 Speaker 6: So it's a really beautiful saying that day here in 892 00:42:19,533 --> 00:42:23,533 Speaker 6: Wellington after a lot of very bad weather. And that 893 00:42:23,613 --> 00:42:27,693 Speaker 6: sounds kind of unrelated, but the whole point of fission 894 00:42:27,853 --> 00:42:33,613 Speaker 6: versus fusion is in one process, you're taking the atoms, 895 00:42:34,173 --> 00:42:37,732 Speaker 6: large atoms, and you're splitting them apart. You're fissioning them 896 00:42:37,853 --> 00:42:40,333 Speaker 6: into two pieces. And if you take a big atom 897 00:42:40,333 --> 00:42:42,053 Speaker 6: and you do that, that releases a lot of energy. 898 00:42:42,413 --> 00:42:46,573 Speaker 6: That's what people typically consider to be nuclear power, and 899 00:42:46,613 --> 00:42:49,212 Speaker 6: it's something that New Zealand moved away from a very 900 00:42:49,213 --> 00:42:52,893 Speaker 6: long time ago. But I referenced for sunny day because 901 00:42:53,093 --> 00:42:55,613 Speaker 6: as you ask a question and I look over Wellington Harbor, 902 00:42:56,653 --> 00:42:59,533 Speaker 6: all of a sudden, like that's hitting what I see. 903 00:42:59,973 --> 00:43:04,453 Speaker 6: That's all from fusion that happens in our sun and 904 00:43:04,693 --> 00:43:07,773 Speaker 6: every star of the night sky. And so in fusion, 905 00:43:07,853 --> 00:43:12,053 Speaker 6: you're doing the opposite. You're taking small atoms and you're 906 00:43:12,133 --> 00:43:14,773 Speaker 6: forcing them to get the typically with an enormous amount 907 00:43:14,813 --> 00:43:17,772 Speaker 6: of pressure and heat, and when you can get them 908 00:43:17,773 --> 00:43:21,053 Speaker 6: to actually get close enough to merge so in the Sun, 909 00:43:21,173 --> 00:43:25,093 Speaker 6: it merges hydrogen into helium and then eventually the helium 910 00:43:25,213 --> 00:43:28,333 Speaker 6: gets merged into carbon. This is also where a lot 911 00:43:28,373 --> 00:43:31,693 Speaker 6: of the elements come from. But that process releases energy. 912 00:43:31,853 --> 00:43:34,772 Speaker 6: Their energy keeps the Sun hot, and because the sun 913 00:43:34,853 --> 00:43:37,533 Speaker 6: is hot, we we get a beautiful sunny day down 914 00:43:37,613 --> 00:43:38,413 Speaker 6: here in wanting. 915 00:43:38,133 --> 00:43:42,013 Speaker 2: To So the sun stars are doing that all the time. 916 00:43:42,333 --> 00:43:44,333 Speaker 2: Why is it so hard to achieve on Earth? 917 00:43:45,293 --> 00:43:49,853 Speaker 6: The Sun is very very big, and so I think 918 00:43:50,253 --> 00:43:53,973 Speaker 6: we obviously want to build machines that replicate the process 919 00:43:54,013 --> 00:43:56,853 Speaker 6: of the Sun, but we actually have a harder job 920 00:43:56,973 --> 00:43:59,533 Speaker 6: than the Sun. So if you were to take if 921 00:43:59,573 --> 00:44:02,413 Speaker 6: you could reach your hand into the Sun and just 922 00:44:02,573 --> 00:44:08,013 Speaker 6: grab a clump of that using sun plasma, it would 923 00:44:08,013 --> 00:44:11,253 Speaker 6: be very hot. You'd vaporize your hand, obviously, But actually 924 00:44:11,373 --> 00:44:14,853 Speaker 6: there's only the fusion that's happening in that clump of 925 00:44:14,893 --> 00:44:17,973 Speaker 6: sun is only the same amount of energy production as 926 00:44:18,133 --> 00:44:20,893 Speaker 6: what your compost been at home is doing. So the 927 00:44:20,933 --> 00:44:25,613 Speaker 6: bacteria eating, you know, your leftovers, metabolizing and getting energy 928 00:44:25,613 --> 00:44:28,093 Speaker 6: out of that, it's about the same amount of energy 929 00:44:28,133 --> 00:44:31,333 Speaker 6: per kind of clump of stuff that you'd grab out. 930 00:44:31,533 --> 00:44:34,733 Speaker 6: And so the s is actually a very bad fusion reactor. 931 00:44:34,893 --> 00:44:38,413 Speaker 6: It just happens to be very, very very big. And 932 00:44:38,453 --> 00:44:40,253 Speaker 6: so if we want to do this on Earth, we 933 00:44:40,293 --> 00:44:42,213 Speaker 6: don't just have to replicate the Sun. We actually have 934 00:44:42,253 --> 00:44:46,013 Speaker 6: to do considerably better. So they're actually building machines that 935 00:44:46,093 --> 00:44:49,413 Speaker 6: are economic, that are worse, building that give us more 936 00:44:49,893 --> 00:44:52,453 Speaker 6: in terms of the energy they produce than they cost, 937 00:44:52,773 --> 00:44:55,253 Speaker 6: and the various materials and labor that we need to 938 00:44:55,253 --> 00:44:57,773 Speaker 6: do are put in in order to build them. 939 00:44:58,173 --> 00:44:58,973 Speaker 3: It's incredible. 940 00:44:59,013 --> 00:45:01,533 Speaker 4: So that approach that you're taking, can you speak a 941 00:45:01,533 --> 00:45:04,933 Speaker 4: little bit more about that, These gigantic magnets you're using 942 00:45:04,973 --> 00:45:05,693 Speaker 4: and what you're trying to. 943 00:45:05,693 --> 00:45:09,573 Speaker 6: Achieve certainly, so in that analogy where you stick your 944 00:45:09,573 --> 00:45:11,613 Speaker 6: hand into the sun and grab it, like, the first 945 00:45:11,693 --> 00:45:16,293 Speaker 6: problem is you can't do that because these plasmas that 946 00:45:16,373 --> 00:45:21,973 Speaker 6: are these really superheated materials are too hot to touch 947 00:45:22,013 --> 00:45:27,453 Speaker 6: with anything solophysical. And so one of the primary approaches 948 00:45:27,613 --> 00:45:31,853 Speaker 6: to building fusion reactors has been to build very powerful magnets. 949 00:45:32,533 --> 00:45:35,773 Speaker 6: And with those magnets you can effectively hold on to 950 00:45:35,893 --> 00:45:40,732 Speaker 6: these plasmas without making physical contact with them. And that way, 951 00:45:40,853 --> 00:45:43,853 Speaker 6: not only do you not vaporize all your equipment once 952 00:45:43,893 --> 00:45:46,573 Speaker 6: the plasma is hot enough, but you can actually get 953 00:45:46,573 --> 00:45:47,893 Speaker 6: the plasma hot at all. 954 00:45:48,173 --> 00:45:48,373 Speaker 8: You know. 955 00:45:48,453 --> 00:45:51,853 Speaker 6: It's like people often worry about the equipment, but actually 956 00:45:51,853 --> 00:45:53,933 Speaker 6: getting the plasma hot and the first place is very 957 00:45:53,973 --> 00:45:57,172 Speaker 6: hard if it makes contact with anything. And so once 958 00:45:57,213 --> 00:46:00,573 Speaker 6: it's levitating, this is the plasma that is and not 959 00:46:00,653 --> 00:46:03,573 Speaker 6: touching anything, you can then go through the process of 960 00:46:03,653 --> 00:46:07,093 Speaker 6: heating it up and we just use microwaves, like you know, 961 00:46:07,253 --> 00:46:09,533 Speaker 6: your microwave of it and. 962 00:46:09,493 --> 00:46:12,093 Speaker 2: How hot are we talking here for this levitating plasma. 963 00:46:13,653 --> 00:46:15,732 Speaker 6: So to get fusion actually going, you need to get 964 00:46:15,733 --> 00:46:19,973 Speaker 6: to between one hundred and one hundred and fifty million degrees, 965 00:46:20,853 --> 00:46:24,692 Speaker 6: so very very hot, and for reference, it is also 966 00:46:24,813 --> 00:46:28,293 Speaker 6: much hotter than the Sun. And that's a reflection of 967 00:46:28,853 --> 00:46:32,253 Speaker 6: we need to build these machines to be efficient and economic, 968 00:46:32,573 --> 00:46:35,573 Speaker 6: not just replicating a science project. 969 00:46:36,253 --> 00:46:40,253 Speaker 2: We're speaking to doctor Ratu Mataira, the SEO of Open 970 00:46:40,253 --> 00:46:43,772 Speaker 2: Star Technologies, So speaking of building these machines, how come 971 00:46:44,373 --> 00:46:48,093 Speaker 2: you can attempt to do this in little old New Zealand. 972 00:46:50,293 --> 00:46:53,893 Speaker 6: So there's two types of expertise that go into building 973 00:46:53,893 --> 00:46:57,652 Speaker 6: a company like this. One is the kind of scientists 974 00:46:57,853 --> 00:47:00,493 Speaker 6: who really study how these plasmas work and how they 975 00:47:00,533 --> 00:47:03,093 Speaker 6: interact with magnetic fields, how you heat them up, how 976 00:47:03,133 --> 00:47:05,652 Speaker 6: you hold onto them, that kind of thing. Now, in 977 00:47:05,693 --> 00:47:09,973 Speaker 6: all honesty, that is not signs that New Zealand has 978 00:47:10,013 --> 00:47:13,172 Speaker 6: done very much of ever, So we don't have lots 979 00:47:13,173 --> 00:47:16,252 Speaker 6: of these plasma physicists running around. There are a few, 980 00:47:17,613 --> 00:47:22,013 Speaker 6: but not probably enough to justify. But what we are 981 00:47:22,253 --> 00:47:26,293 Speaker 6: absolutely world class at a bit like where world class 982 00:47:26,333 --> 00:47:32,652 Speaker 6: with carbon fiber and making yachts and sailing boats is 983 00:47:32,893 --> 00:47:36,533 Speaker 6: superconducting magnets. So when we say build a really powerful magnet, 984 00:47:37,373 --> 00:47:42,053 Speaker 6: we take a new type of material called high temperature superconductor, 985 00:47:42,973 --> 00:47:46,413 Speaker 6: and we wind that into many, many, many turns that 986 00:47:46,493 --> 00:47:51,053 Speaker 6: can carry electrical current. That electric current produces a magnetic field, 987 00:47:51,653 --> 00:47:55,173 Speaker 6: and the science and engineering of how to do that 988 00:47:55,373 --> 00:47:59,373 Speaker 6: and the expertise we have one of the single largest 989 00:47:59,373 --> 00:48:03,172 Speaker 6: concentrations of talent in the world on how to make 990 00:48:03,213 --> 00:48:07,053 Speaker 6: magnets like that and also quite innovative, quite innovatively. 991 00:48:07,453 --> 00:48:09,573 Speaker 2: How come, yeah, particularly in New Zealand, do we have 992 00:48:09,613 --> 00:48:10,493 Speaker 2: those expertise? 993 00:48:12,093 --> 00:48:15,053 Speaker 6: New Zealand's is a small place, right and so we 994 00:48:15,133 --> 00:48:18,813 Speaker 6: always question, you know, yeah, could we possibly do everything? 995 00:48:18,893 --> 00:48:22,333 Speaker 6: And I think everybody found a rocket industry just as surprising. 996 00:48:23,453 --> 00:48:26,333 Speaker 6: But when we do decide to do things, there's no 997 00:48:26,453 --> 00:48:29,733 Speaker 6: reason why we can't be the best. And so we 998 00:48:29,853 --> 00:48:32,333 Speaker 6: probably can't do everything, you know, I wouldn't be a 999 00:48:32,333 --> 00:48:36,693 Speaker 6: proponent of New Zealand trying to have every single industry 1000 00:48:36,693 --> 00:48:39,373 Speaker 6: on Earth. But once we decide to do something, we 1001 00:48:39,453 --> 00:48:42,732 Speaker 6: can absolutely be the best at it. And so the 1002 00:48:42,773 --> 00:48:46,733 Speaker 6: magnet specialty that popped up popped out of a research 1003 00:48:46,813 --> 00:48:53,093 Speaker 6: lab originally the BSIR Dispartment of Scientific Industrial Research in 1004 00:48:53,453 --> 00:49:00,813 Speaker 6: Seaview in Wellington, and they discovered the crystals that make 1005 00:49:00,853 --> 00:49:04,613 Speaker 6: these superconductors. And so we're talking lab experiments. You're making 1006 00:49:04,733 --> 00:49:08,453 Speaker 6: tiny little flakes of material you want to understand and 1007 00:49:08,533 --> 00:49:11,213 Speaker 6: what you've made. That kind of thing, and that was 1008 00:49:11,213 --> 00:49:14,053 Speaker 6: happening in the late eighties and eventually you get to 1009 00:49:14,053 --> 00:49:17,013 Speaker 6: the point where you've got enough of the technology. And 1010 00:49:17,053 --> 00:49:19,773 Speaker 6: this is decades of work, right, going step by step, 1011 00:49:20,333 --> 00:49:24,213 Speaker 6: but maturing at every stage. And so how we became 1012 00:49:24,373 --> 00:49:28,613 Speaker 6: the best at this is a lot of work that 1013 00:49:28,693 --> 00:49:31,573 Speaker 6: happened before I was even born and before I joined 1014 00:49:31,573 --> 00:49:35,693 Speaker 6: as a PhD student, And you get to stand atop 1015 00:49:36,173 --> 00:49:39,893 Speaker 6: the shoulders of giant and super proud that that happened 1016 00:49:39,893 --> 00:49:41,573 Speaker 6: here and we get to be a beneficiary of it. 1017 00:49:42,413 --> 00:49:46,573 Speaker 4: We are speaking to doctor Ratu Matida, CEO of Open 1018 00:49:46,573 --> 00:49:50,093 Speaker 4: Star Technologies and their work on nuclear fusion more in 1019 00:49:50,133 --> 00:49:54,732 Speaker 4: a moment. You're listening to news Talk ZB twenty past two. 1020 00:49:56,893 --> 00:50:00,573 Speaker 1: Matt Heathen Tyler Adams afternoons call oh eight hundred eighty 1021 00:50:00,613 --> 00:50:02,493 Speaker 1: ten eighty on Youth Talk ZB. 1022 00:50:02,493 --> 00:50:05,653 Speaker 4: Twenty two past two. We are speaking with doctor Ratu Mattida, 1023 00:50:05,773 --> 00:50:08,212 Speaker 4: the CEO of Open Star Technologies. 1024 00:50:09,333 --> 00:50:12,893 Speaker 2: Can you talk us through this latest milestone of yours 1025 00:50:13,093 --> 00:50:14,453 Speaker 2: and why it's so significant? 1026 00:50:15,373 --> 00:50:20,453 Speaker 6: So this milestone is effectively us building a really powerful 1027 00:50:20,693 --> 00:50:24,893 Speaker 6: superconducting magnet and actually levitating that magnet and then putting 1028 00:50:24,973 --> 00:50:28,413 Speaker 6: plasmas around it. Now, this is quite unique. Lots of 1029 00:50:28,853 --> 00:50:31,853 Speaker 6: ways of doing fusion rely on having a powerful magnet, 1030 00:50:32,173 --> 00:50:34,333 Speaker 6: but they don't have to levitate it. They can kind 1031 00:50:34,373 --> 00:50:36,533 Speaker 6: of just build a big machine. The magnet sits there 1032 00:50:36,653 --> 00:50:40,293 Speaker 6: and you hold the plasmas inside the magnet. Our machine 1033 00:50:40,333 --> 00:50:42,533 Speaker 6: is kind of different. It actually ends up with a 1034 00:50:42,653 --> 00:50:45,893 Speaker 6: magnet inside the plasma, kind of pulling in from the 1035 00:50:45,933 --> 00:50:49,732 Speaker 6: inside to keep the plasma contained. Rudolf here is that 1036 00:50:49,853 --> 00:50:53,053 Speaker 6: you now have a magnet that has to be levitated 1037 00:50:53,613 --> 00:50:57,773 Speaker 6: and disconnected from all of the normal support systems you'd 1038 00:50:57,773 --> 00:51:00,893 Speaker 6: rely on to make that magnet keep operating. So it 1039 00:51:00,893 --> 00:51:03,493 Speaker 6: has to be cryogenically cooled, It needs to have a 1040 00:51:03,533 --> 00:51:07,252 Speaker 6: thousand amps of current flowing through it. We need diagnostics 1041 00:51:07,253 --> 00:51:10,093 Speaker 6: on the magnet to see how it going, We need 1042 00:51:10,133 --> 00:51:14,333 Speaker 6: batteries on board to keep it running. And so getting 1043 00:51:14,373 --> 00:51:17,773 Speaker 6: that all completed and showing that you can get plasmas, 1044 00:51:17,813 --> 00:51:20,172 Speaker 6: you can levitate the magnet. Sure it weighs half a ton, 1045 00:51:20,373 --> 00:51:22,173 Speaker 6: but like you just get the numbers right and you 1046 00:51:22,213 --> 00:51:26,133 Speaker 6: can do it was actually something that our industry, the 1047 00:51:26,213 --> 00:51:31,573 Speaker 6: fusion industry kind of globally effectively thought was impossible to engineer. 1048 00:51:33,093 --> 00:51:36,973 Speaker 6: And since starting open Star, since coming across the idea 1049 00:51:37,053 --> 00:51:39,893 Speaker 6: to do this, kind of immediately knew that the whole 1050 00:51:39,893 --> 00:51:42,453 Speaker 6: industry would think this was impossible. But it was that 1051 00:51:42,493 --> 00:51:46,973 Speaker 6: technology that came out of Ceview and Lower Heart that 1052 00:51:47,133 --> 00:51:50,172 Speaker 6: clearly said it wasn't impossible that we can engineer things 1053 00:51:50,253 --> 00:51:53,173 Speaker 6: like this, And so the milestone for us is really 1054 00:51:53,213 --> 00:51:57,933 Speaker 6: that proof positive that levitated dipoles, despite everybody's opinion, are 1055 00:51:57,933 --> 00:52:01,652 Speaker 6: not impossible, that you can build these machines, and that 1056 00:52:01,773 --> 00:52:05,253 Speaker 6: therefore there is a pathway to move towards building power plants, 1057 00:52:05,853 --> 00:52:09,413 Speaker 6: and open Star is right there to go on that journey. 1058 00:52:09,613 --> 00:52:12,652 Speaker 2: It's incredible. And this might sound like a vacuous question, 1059 00:52:12,693 --> 00:52:14,333 Speaker 2: but what does it sound like when you when you 1060 00:52:14,373 --> 00:52:15,093 Speaker 2: fire it up? 1061 00:52:16,773 --> 00:52:20,013 Speaker 6: Well, unfortunately, everything is inside a vacuum chamber, and it's 1062 00:52:20,053 --> 00:52:21,893 Speaker 6: like you know when you watch a movie where people 1063 00:52:21,933 --> 00:52:24,212 Speaker 6: are in space and they can hear things. You can't 1064 00:52:24,253 --> 00:52:25,093 Speaker 6: hear things in space. 1065 00:52:25,413 --> 00:52:27,173 Speaker 16: You need an atmosphere to hear stuff. 1066 00:52:28,293 --> 00:52:30,813 Speaker 6: But the lab itself you can just kind of hear 1067 00:52:30,893 --> 00:52:34,013 Speaker 6: this hum of all the equipment it's running. Becomes a 1068 00:52:34,013 --> 00:52:38,413 Speaker 6: bit of a weird science science fiction heartbeat and in 1069 00:52:38,533 --> 00:52:41,333 Speaker 6: your in your dreams, I think if you're exposed to 1070 00:52:41,333 --> 00:52:46,613 Speaker 6: it long enough. But yeah, the visual experience is pretty amazing. 1071 00:52:46,693 --> 00:52:49,253 Speaker 6: So like if people look up open Star on YouTube, 1072 00:52:49,293 --> 00:52:51,253 Speaker 6: they should be able to find the live stream of 1073 00:52:51,293 --> 00:52:54,733 Speaker 6: the event that we did and you know, enjoy the 1074 00:52:54,813 --> 00:52:57,093 Speaker 6: Prime Minister pushing a button and making some placements. 1075 00:52:57,373 --> 00:53:02,493 Speaker 2: So talk to the reward of fusion. So it's once 1076 00:53:02,733 --> 00:53:08,133 Speaker 2: the expense of creating the energy is less than you know, 1077 00:53:08,453 --> 00:53:10,413 Speaker 2: what it takes to make the plasma or whatever control 1078 00:53:10,493 --> 00:53:16,653 Speaker 2: the plasma. So the reward is safe energy, isn't it. 1079 00:53:16,013 --> 00:53:19,652 Speaker 2: It's all the benefits of nuclear energy, but without any 1080 00:53:19,693 --> 00:53:22,653 Speaker 2: of the downside of radioactive material and such. 1081 00:53:23,653 --> 00:53:26,973 Speaker 6: Yeah, So the big piece of fusion is that it's 1082 00:53:26,973 --> 00:53:31,812 Speaker 6: effectively a factory for making energy where the inputs are 1083 00:53:31,893 --> 00:53:34,173 Speaker 6: very very cheap, and so you just have to spend 1084 00:53:34,213 --> 00:53:34,732 Speaker 6: me on the. 1085 00:53:34,693 --> 00:53:37,493 Speaker 16: Factory and the output of that factory. 1086 00:53:37,253 --> 00:53:43,453 Speaker 6: Is electricity and the world is really thing for there 1087 00:53:43,533 --> 00:53:51,013 Speaker 6: is a cheapable form y that is also reliable and available. 1088 00:53:51,333 --> 00:53:54,053 Speaker 6: So when you go to turn on your factory that 1089 00:53:54,133 --> 00:53:56,453 Speaker 6: actually makes widgets, or go on and turn your kettle 1090 00:53:56,493 --> 00:53:59,652 Speaker 6: on in your home, that it's not sensitive to whether 1091 00:53:59,773 --> 00:54:01,933 Speaker 6: or not the sun is shining, or the wind is blowing, 1092 00:54:03,413 --> 00:54:05,133 Speaker 6: or whether or not you have a big enough battery 1093 00:54:05,173 --> 00:54:09,213 Speaker 6: bank to compensate for those things. You actually just have 1094 00:54:09,293 --> 00:54:12,133 Speaker 6: a power source that's always available for when you need it. 1095 00:54:13,493 --> 00:54:16,172 Speaker 6: And what we're seeing now with the rise of say 1096 00:54:16,333 --> 00:54:21,653 Speaker 6: Ai is that people are becoming less and less willing 1097 00:54:21,693 --> 00:54:26,213 Speaker 6: to compromise on their access to energy in order to 1098 00:54:26,333 --> 00:54:34,013 Speaker 6: hit climate goals, which is pretty scary, but ultimately that's 1099 00:54:34,093 --> 00:54:36,693 Speaker 6: the gauntlet that's been put in front of us, is 1100 00:54:36,973 --> 00:54:41,893 Speaker 6: can we find innovative solutions to kind of unshackle the 1101 00:54:41,933 --> 00:54:45,053 Speaker 6: way we think about energy and fusion is definitely our 1102 00:54:45,093 --> 00:54:45,933 Speaker 6: pathway to do that. 1103 00:54:46,333 --> 00:54:49,653 Speaker 4: We're speaking to do to Matider, the CEO of Open 1104 00:54:49,693 --> 00:54:52,373 Speaker 4: Star Technologies. So if you guys crack this and it 1105 00:54:52,413 --> 00:54:54,692 Speaker 4: does become commercially viable, I mean, what does that mean 1106 00:54:54,733 --> 00:54:57,693 Speaker 4: for every day? You know, Kiwi's in this instant on 1107 00:54:57,733 --> 00:55:01,453 Speaker 4: their electricity bill? Are we talking a massive reduction on 1108 00:55:01,493 --> 00:55:04,133 Speaker 4: how much they would pay? Obviously that flows across the 1109 00:55:04,133 --> 00:55:06,293 Speaker 4: board to industry as well. But is that is that 1110 00:55:06,453 --> 00:55:07,453 Speaker 4: potentially the future? 1111 00:55:08,613 --> 00:55:11,853 Speaker 6: I think that's probably the far future. We have challenges 1112 00:55:11,893 --> 00:55:15,893 Speaker 6: even once we get the product to be commercial, we 1113 00:55:16,013 --> 00:55:20,493 Speaker 6: are running behind on transitioning the grid to clean, reliable 1114 00:55:20,613 --> 00:55:24,093 Speaker 6: energy in general, even as we roll out solar and wind, 1115 00:55:24,733 --> 00:55:27,453 Speaker 6: and so we've got a lot of catching up to do, basically, 1116 00:55:28,013 --> 00:55:30,013 Speaker 6: and that's one of the reasons why this team works 1117 00:55:30,093 --> 00:55:33,733 Speaker 6: so quickly. But to the spirit of your question, like, 1118 00:55:33,853 --> 00:55:38,253 Speaker 6: what does the utopia where we have actually abundant and 1119 00:55:38,373 --> 00:55:42,013 Speaker 6: unlimited energy, what does that look like? How does it 1120 00:55:42,093 --> 00:55:44,933 Speaker 6: change people's lives? I think it's a little bit like 1121 00:55:45,013 --> 00:55:49,853 Speaker 6: broadband internet. Back when I was a kid, I remember 1122 00:55:49,893 --> 00:55:52,213 Speaker 6: that we would run out of gigabytes right, and we 1123 00:55:52,253 --> 00:55:55,413 Speaker 6: would have to buy some more gigabytes on the plan. 1124 00:55:56,133 --> 00:56:00,133 Speaker 6: And then eventually the internet got so good, the connections 1125 00:56:00,133 --> 00:56:02,973 Speaker 6: to everybody got so good that people stopped charging by 1126 00:56:02,973 --> 00:56:06,813 Speaker 6: the gigabyte and they started charging by speed. And so 1127 00:56:07,493 --> 00:56:11,013 Speaker 6: a really simple example is if your house has a 1128 00:56:11,133 --> 00:56:14,733 Speaker 6: connection to the grid that could keep it warm, the 1129 00:56:14,893 --> 00:56:17,653 Speaker 6: power to keep it warm will be so low cost 1130 00:56:17,813 --> 00:56:19,693 Speaker 6: that you can just do it right, and that we 1131 00:56:19,733 --> 00:56:25,013 Speaker 6: can just solve problems of abundance and health directly. And 1132 00:56:25,053 --> 00:56:27,813 Speaker 6: then if you're running a factory right building things that 1133 00:56:27,853 --> 00:56:31,213 Speaker 6: people need, you don't have to worry about where you're 1134 00:56:31,213 --> 00:56:33,453 Speaker 6: getting that energy from. You can just get it and 1135 00:56:33,533 --> 00:56:38,893 Speaker 6: use it and keep that factory going. And these always 1136 00:56:39,053 --> 00:56:42,333 Speaker 6: energy always feels so abstract to people. It's always kind 1137 00:56:42,373 --> 00:56:47,493 Speaker 6: of at arm's length. But at the level of countries 1138 00:56:47,533 --> 00:56:52,013 Speaker 6: and how they behave, energy plays a huge part. And 1139 00:56:52,053 --> 00:56:54,813 Speaker 6: so I think having clean and abundant energy as a 1140 00:56:54,813 --> 00:56:58,373 Speaker 6: pathway to a much more peaceful world. And I know 1141 00:56:58,453 --> 00:57:02,333 Speaker 6: that's something that all New Zealanders believe in and strive for. 1142 00:57:03,093 --> 00:57:06,093 Speaker 2: You speak of it utopia. There's a saying that always 1143 00:57:06,133 --> 00:57:09,093 Speaker 2: gets banded about that fusion is always thirty year away. 1144 00:57:09,893 --> 00:57:13,933 Speaker 2: So how far away do you think it is now? 1145 00:57:15,573 --> 00:57:20,533 Speaker 6: So we will be seeing the first fusion power plants 1146 00:57:21,533 --> 00:57:23,373 Speaker 6: turning on and putting power into the grid. We will 1147 00:57:23,373 --> 00:57:25,813 Speaker 6: see that in the early twenty thirties. Wow. And it's 1148 00:57:25,813 --> 00:57:28,813 Speaker 6: not just open Star being bullish. That's some other companies 1149 00:57:28,853 --> 00:57:34,973 Speaker 6: pursuing other approaches on their timelines as well. That's first electricity. 1150 00:57:36,093 --> 00:57:40,733 Speaker 6: But again, this is not just, you know, a niche thing. 1151 00:57:40,893 --> 00:57:44,853 Speaker 6: This is trying to reinvent an entire industry. And so 1152 00:57:44,973 --> 00:57:47,933 Speaker 6: by the time we get to that utopia, I think, 1153 00:57:48,813 --> 00:57:51,693 Speaker 6: hopefully I will have retired and someone else will have 1154 00:57:51,733 --> 00:57:55,413 Speaker 6: taken over open star. Then the world will start looking 1155 00:57:55,453 --> 00:57:57,933 Speaker 6: like a really different place. But this is just the 1156 00:57:57,973 --> 00:58:01,373 Speaker 6: beginning of this journey, and like a lot of his journeys, 1157 00:58:01,373 --> 00:58:04,493 Speaker 6: it starts off somewhere pretty pretty hard, right, facing a 1158 00:58:04,533 --> 00:58:07,533 Speaker 6: really big challenge. But when you get to on the 1159 00:58:07,573 --> 00:58:10,613 Speaker 6: other side, overcome that challenge can be a pretty amazing place. 1160 00:58:11,213 --> 00:58:17,773 Speaker 2: Now in New Zealand is famously nervous about nuclear options, 1161 00:58:19,293 --> 00:58:22,813 Speaker 2: and so there be people out there that don't necessarily 1162 00:58:22,853 --> 00:58:25,573 Speaker 2: understand too much about it. So this is a question 1163 00:58:25,653 --> 00:58:27,933 Speaker 2: for them. Is there any chance of you blowing up 1164 00:58:27,933 --> 00:58:29,293 Speaker 2: and killing everyone in Wellington? 1165 00:58:30,733 --> 00:58:35,613 Speaker 6: No, there is zero chance of that happening. But answering 1166 00:58:35,693 --> 00:58:39,413 Speaker 6: the question, I'd also always like to say that safety 1167 00:58:39,653 --> 00:58:42,213 Speaker 6: around how these things work is always something that we're 1168 00:58:42,333 --> 00:58:44,733 Speaker 6: very open about, So I'm not going to get offended 1169 00:58:44,813 --> 00:58:48,013 Speaker 6: or worked up by being asked a question like that. 1170 00:58:48,893 --> 00:58:51,053 Speaker 6: The way that we would describe it and how people 1171 00:58:51,053 --> 00:58:54,373 Speaker 6: should think about it is that a fusion power plant 1172 00:58:54,733 --> 00:58:59,493 Speaker 6: doesn't have anything in it any more risky than any 1173 00:58:59,653 --> 00:59:04,533 Speaker 6: kind of standard, big chemical processing plant that our current 1174 00:59:04,533 --> 00:59:09,053 Speaker 6: industry runs on. The risks are of a slightly diferent flavor, 1175 00:59:09,733 --> 00:59:12,093 Speaker 6: but They're all things that just need to be managed, 1176 00:59:12,413 --> 00:59:14,853 Speaker 6: mainly for the safety of the people that actually work 1177 00:59:15,573 --> 00:59:20,613 Speaker 6: at that plant. And we run big intry over place, 1178 00:59:20,893 --> 00:59:24,853 Speaker 6: we know how to keep people safe. We're keeping people safe, 1179 00:59:25,453 --> 00:59:27,573 Speaker 6: and that's one of the things that's super exciting about 1180 00:59:27,653 --> 00:59:30,693 Speaker 6: fusion is that it has a clear pathway to achieve 1181 00:59:30,773 --> 00:59:31,333 Speaker 6: that safety. 1182 00:59:31,933 --> 00:59:34,453 Speaker 2: Now, just going back before we finish, just because I 1183 00:59:34,493 --> 00:59:38,293 Speaker 2: think people listening might miss a little bit, But you 1184 00:59:38,333 --> 00:59:41,773 Speaker 2: speak of the plasma, what actually is the plasma, what 1185 00:59:41,893 --> 00:59:42,773 Speaker 2: is it made out of? 1186 00:59:43,933 --> 00:59:47,053 Speaker 6: So plasma is often referred to as the fourth state 1187 00:59:47,093 --> 00:59:49,813 Speaker 6: of matter. So if something is cold, it forms a solid, 1188 00:59:50,053 --> 00:59:52,213 Speaker 6: warm it up a bit that melts into a liquid, 1189 00:59:52,253 --> 00:59:55,213 Speaker 6: warm it up more, it turns into a gas, warming 1190 00:59:55,333 --> 00:59:58,893 Speaker 6: up even further. And what happens is if you look 1191 00:59:58,933 --> 01:00:01,933 Speaker 6: at the atoms that made up that gas, you can 1192 01:00:01,973 --> 01:00:05,133 Speaker 6: get it so hot that the electrons that are going 1193 01:00:05,173 --> 01:00:09,573 Speaker 6: around that atom fly off, and you instead now have 1194 01:00:09,693 --> 01:00:13,613 Speaker 6: a mixture of electrons whizzing around doing their own thing. 1195 01:00:14,053 --> 01:00:16,213 Speaker 6: And also the nuclei that were a a cor of 1196 01:00:16,253 --> 01:00:19,693 Speaker 6: those atoms also whizzing around doing their own thing. And 1197 01:00:19,733 --> 01:00:23,933 Speaker 6: so that fourth state of matter we call plasma. And 1198 01:00:24,013 --> 01:00:29,013 Speaker 6: because you've got These electons wizzing around plasmas are electrically 1199 01:00:29,053 --> 01:00:33,133 Speaker 6: conductive and sensitive to magnetic fields, which is precisely why 1200 01:00:33,173 --> 01:00:36,733 Speaker 6: we use really strong magnets to hold onto them. 1201 01:00:37,053 --> 01:00:40,293 Speaker 4: Doctor matta thank you very much for joining us. Really 1202 01:00:40,333 --> 01:00:42,973 Speaker 4: appreciate your time and expertise and hopefully catch up again soon. 1203 01:00:43,773 --> 01:00:44,053 Speaker 6: Thank you. 1204 01:00:44,133 --> 01:00:47,853 Speaker 4: Birth That is doctor Artu Matida, the heads of Open 1205 01:00:47,893 --> 01:00:51,733 Speaker 4: Star Technologies who are doing incredible exciting work in the 1206 01:00:51,773 --> 01:00:53,053 Speaker 4: realm of nuclear fusion. 1207 01:00:53,053 --> 01:00:55,133 Speaker 3: You're listening to news talks, their beedback. 1208 01:00:54,813 --> 01:00:56,813 Speaker 5: For Matt then Taylor. 1209 01:00:57,813 --> 01:00:58,933 Speaker 3: What a fascinating guy. 1210 01:00:59,693 --> 01:01:03,093 Speaker 4: That man is, an amazing New Zealander doctor Ratu Mataia, 1211 01:01:03,173 --> 01:01:06,293 Speaker 4: and what they are doing at Open Star Technologies blows 1212 01:01:06,333 --> 01:01:07,093 Speaker 4: the minds. 1213 01:01:07,493 --> 01:01:09,653 Speaker 2: Look at this text from here. What an amazing guy 1214 01:01:09,733 --> 01:01:10,293 Speaker 2: that doctor is. 1215 01:01:10,333 --> 01:01:13,013 Speaker 4: Except what you said, yeah, yeah, so we want to 1216 01:01:13,053 --> 01:01:15,053 Speaker 4: open it up to you. So you've heard that interview 1217 01:01:15,053 --> 01:01:17,133 Speaker 4: on what they're trying to do at Open Star Technologies 1218 01:01:17,133 --> 01:01:21,373 Speaker 4: around nuclear fusion. Incredible potential of that. But what is 1219 01:01:21,413 --> 01:01:24,413 Speaker 4: the future when it comes to energy in New Zealand. 1220 01:01:24,493 --> 01:01:27,733 Speaker 4: It's it's been a debate for for a long time. 1221 01:01:27,813 --> 01:01:29,853 Speaker 4: The last couple of decades it started to ramp up, 1222 01:01:29,853 --> 01:01:34,013 Speaker 4: whether that's renewables, whether it is nuclear fission, which is 1223 01:01:34,013 --> 01:01:35,693 Speaker 4: your traditional Am I getting this right? 1224 01:01:35,693 --> 01:01:38,173 Speaker 3: That's your traditional nuclear reactor? 1225 01:01:38,453 --> 01:01:41,653 Speaker 2: Split seavy atoms like uranianem starts a part to release 1226 01:01:41,653 --> 01:01:44,013 Speaker 2: the energy. It produces a lot of radioactive waste as 1227 01:01:44,013 --> 01:01:46,813 Speaker 2: opposed to fusion, as he said, which combines light atoms 1228 01:01:47,093 --> 01:01:50,213 Speaker 2: and produces more energy and there is no radio waste. 1229 01:01:50,253 --> 01:01:52,933 Speaker 2: But unfortunately can't quite do that yet. 1230 01:01:52,973 --> 01:01:56,213 Speaker 4: Yeah, commiscially Yeah, So I mean, do we have our 1231 01:01:56,253 --> 01:01:59,293 Speaker 4: hopes and people like doctor Ruptu Matida and his team 1232 01:01:59,373 --> 01:02:02,413 Speaker 4: to deliver something in the next twenty to thirty years 1233 01:02:02,693 --> 01:02:04,773 Speaker 4: or is that really the future of energy in New Zealand. 1234 01:02:04,813 --> 01:02:05,373 Speaker 3: Love to hear from you. 1235 01:02:05,413 --> 01:02:07,493 Speaker 4: Oh eight, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is that 1236 01:02:07,613 --> 01:02:09,693 Speaker 4: number to call? Nine two is the text? 1237 01:02:09,813 --> 01:02:12,053 Speaker 2: Or have you got all your stocks and wave energy? 1238 01:02:12,493 --> 01:02:15,253 Speaker 4: I love to hear from your headlines with Raylene coming 1239 01:02:15,293 --> 01:02:16,293 Speaker 4: up and taking your calls. 1240 01:02:17,773 --> 01:02:20,453 Speaker 5: You've talk said, be headlines with your. 1241 01:02:20,333 --> 01:02:24,413 Speaker 13: Ride, New Zealand's number one taxi ab Download your ride today. 1242 01:02:25,093 --> 01:02:28,293 Speaker 13: Labor leader Chris Hipkins admits his party didn't get everything 1243 01:02:28,373 --> 01:02:31,653 Speaker 13: right last term.

What 1263 01:03:41,093 --> 01:03:43,773 Speaker 4: is the future of energy generation in New Zealand? 1264 01:03:44,253 --> 01:03:46,493 Speaker 2: A lot of positive texts coming through for the good 1265 01:03:46,533 --> 01:03:49,973 Speaker 2: doctor guys. That was the most interesting radio ever. Smart 1266 01:03:49,973 --> 01:03:52,973 Speaker 2: guy and a Kiwi two very similar text here from Graham. 1267 01:03:53,013 --> 01:03:56,493 Speaker 2: Best guest ever understood everything, he said, A great kiwi 1268 01:03:56,533 --> 01:03:59,253 Speaker 2: doing great things. But this textter said that guy will 1269 01:03:59,293 --> 01:04:01,333 Speaker 2: kill us. All the people who say that they won't 1270 01:04:01,333 --> 01:04:03,733 Speaker 2: blow up the world are always the ones who do 1271 01:04:03,853 --> 01:04:05,813 Speaker 2: blow up the world. What are the people that have 1272 01:04:05,893 --> 01:04:08,933 Speaker 2: blown up the world? Yeah, we blow up the world. Yeah, 1273 01:04:09,053 --> 01:04:11,453 Speaker 2: it hasn't happened yet. All those people, all those people 1274 01:04:11,453 --> 01:04:12,893 Speaker 2: saying they won't blow up the world that then go 1275 01:04:12,933 --> 01:04:14,613 Speaker 2: on to blow up the world. We need more examples 1276 01:04:14,653 --> 01:04:14,813 Speaker 2: of that. 1277 01:04:14,973 --> 01:04:15,893 Speaker 3: Where are they now? 1278 01:04:15,933 --> 01:04:20,213 Speaker 2: We gave we gave New Zealand of the Week to 1279 01:04:20,253 --> 01:04:23,653 Speaker 2: open Star last week and let's do it here. Let's 1280 01:04:23,653 --> 01:04:26,773 Speaker 2: see see if you can spot the scientific era I 1281 01:04:26,933 --> 01:04:31,973 Speaker 2: made and awarding this New Zealand of the Week whilst 1282 01:04:31,973 --> 01:04:35,093 Speaker 2: the rest of us are complaining about chocolate prices. Some 1283 01:04:35,213 --> 01:04:37,373 Speaker 2: key with genius is in a lower warehouse of a 1284 01:04:37,453 --> 01:04:40,973 Speaker 2: million degree cloud of plasma levitating on a magnet, Not 1285 01:04:41,093 --> 01:04:44,533 Speaker 2: in Silicon Valley, not in Shanghai, not in some constant 1286 01:04:44,573 --> 01:04:48,693 Speaker 2: billion dollar EU lab. They are pulling off milestones. Most 1287 01:04:48,733 --> 01:04:50,053 Speaker 2: sciences are stilled impossible. 1288 01:04:50,373 --> 01:04:55,293 Speaker 3: In the lower part, I see what you did. 1289 01:04:55,493 --> 01:04:55,973 Speaker 2: Can you see? 1290 01:04:56,213 --> 01:04:57,173 Speaker 3: I see where you went wrong? 1291 01:04:57,213 --> 01:05:01,053 Speaker 2: You see the huge scientific era I made and putting 1292 01:05:01,053 --> 01:05:02,093 Speaker 2: together that New Zealand of the. 1293 01:05:02,053 --> 01:05:05,453 Speaker 4: Week only thanks to your question to to top tom 1294 01:05:05,453 --> 01:05:08,013 Speaker 4: at tighter is what does it sound like? And in 1295 01:05:08,093 --> 01:05:10,293 Speaker 4: the ground there you clearly had a machine that was 1296 01:05:10,333 --> 01:05:12,573 Speaker 4: about to ramp up to explode and take out most 1297 01:05:12,613 --> 01:05:13,133 Speaker 4: of Wellington. 1298 01:05:13,253 --> 01:05:16,693 Speaker 2: Becurse, their plasma is in a vacuum, so it's making 1299 01:05:16,733 --> 01:05:19,173 Speaker 2: no sound at all, much like if you scream in space, 1300 01:05:19,253 --> 01:05:20,053 Speaker 2: you don't hear anything. 1301 01:05:20,173 --> 01:05:22,533 Speaker 3: Yeah, right, Oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is 1302 01:05:22,573 --> 01:05:23,213 Speaker 3: the number to call. 1303 01:05:23,293 --> 01:05:25,613 Speaker 4: So what is the future of energy generation in New 1304 01:05:25,693 --> 01:05:28,173 Speaker 4: Zealand because there's been a lot of talk about renewables 1305 01:05:28,213 --> 01:05:30,453 Speaker 4: and what is the way forward? But all of these 1306 01:05:30,573 --> 01:05:35,733 Speaker 4: massive projects that they've floated about, they have a projected 1307 01:05:35,733 --> 01:05:39,333 Speaker 4: time span of fifteen to thirty years. So if what 1308 01:05:39,493 --> 01:05:41,893 Speaker 4: doctor Ratu and his team are doing they managed to 1309 01:05:41,893 --> 01:05:44,693 Speaker 4: crack at, then you're looking at at thirty years when 1310 01:05:44,733 --> 01:05:48,653 Speaker 4: we have this sort of technology available at scale, So 1311 01:05:48,933 --> 01:05:52,293 Speaker 4: it's a hell of a thing for policy makers to decide. 1312 01:05:52,293 --> 01:05:53,333 Speaker 3: Do we go all. 1313 01:05:53,133 --> 01:05:55,973 Speaker 4: In on renewable with all the problems that it does 1314 01:05:56,053 --> 01:05:58,493 Speaker 4: have in terms of being reliable. Do we start to 1315 01:05:58,493 --> 01:06:01,613 Speaker 4: look at some of the technology that they are generating 1316 01:06:01,853 --> 01:06:04,853 Speaker 4: in nuclear fission where they are getting those reactors down 1317 01:06:04,973 --> 01:06:07,653 Speaker 4: smaller and smaller and smaller, or do we go all 1318 01:06:07,693 --> 01:06:11,413 Speaker 4: in in the hopes that at open star technologies crackles line. 1319 01:06:11,413 --> 01:06:15,653 Speaker 2: Well, of course there's those modular nuclear fission generators that 1320 01:06:15,653 --> 01:06:17,373 Speaker 2: they've been talking about now that it'll be about the 1321 01:06:17,373 --> 01:06:19,973 Speaker 2: size of a container, so you could have one of 1322 01:06:19,973 --> 01:06:22,213 Speaker 2: them at the back of every building in the country. 1323 01:06:22,213 --> 01:06:25,053 Speaker 2: Of course, they produce a lot of radioactive race that 1324 01:06:25,093 --> 01:06:27,613 Speaker 2: you have to deal with that you have to concrete 1325 01:06:27,693 --> 01:06:29,613 Speaker 2: up and put into the ground or fire into space 1326 01:06:29,813 --> 01:06:31,853 Speaker 2: or whatever. And you know, the great thing about fusion 1327 01:06:32,453 --> 01:06:34,853 Speaker 2: is that you have no radioactive waste at all. The 1328 01:06:34,893 --> 01:06:36,893 Speaker 2: problem with fusion is that we can't quite do it 1329 01:06:36,933 --> 01:06:39,773 Speaker 2: yet in a way, well, we can't when the Sun's 1330 01:06:39,813 --> 01:06:41,853 Speaker 2: doing it all the time. Yeah, I found that really 1331 01:06:41,893 --> 01:06:43,573 Speaker 2: interesting what he was saying, that the Sun is actually 1332 01:06:43,613 --> 01:06:47,053 Speaker 2: not a great fusion reactor and that if you pulled 1333 01:06:47,093 --> 01:06:48,773 Speaker 2: your hand into the sun and pulled out a clump 1334 01:06:48,813 --> 01:06:50,813 Speaker 2: of it, it would be producing about as much money as 1335 01:06:50,853 --> 01:06:52,213 Speaker 2: a compost heat inefficient. 1336 01:06:52,373 --> 01:06:54,573 Speaker 3: Yeah, just because of the size of the sun that 1337 01:06:54,613 --> 01:06:55,013 Speaker 3: it works. 1338 01:06:55,133 --> 01:06:58,133 Speaker 2: But is this the area it's a kei we that's 1339 01:06:58,133 --> 01:07:01,053 Speaker 2: advanced and he was talking about Wellington is particularly set 1340 01:07:01,133 --> 01:07:04,013 Speaker 2: up to because of work that we've done before super 1341 01:07:04,013 --> 01:07:07,253 Speaker 2: conductors in this country. So is this something we should 1342 01:07:07,253 --> 01:07:10,213 Speaker 2: be pumping heaps and heat of money into. And because 1343 01:07:10,253 --> 01:07:12,893 Speaker 2: you know, imagine if New Zealand was you know, was 1344 01:07:13,093 --> 01:07:15,973 Speaker 2: leading the world in fusion and was the first people 1345 01:07:15,973 --> 01:07:18,333 Speaker 2: to doing it, could we then laud it over the 1346 01:07:18,373 --> 01:07:21,253 Speaker 2: rest of the planet and just the richest country in 1347 01:07:21,253 --> 01:07:22,493 Speaker 2: the world. Is that the way it would work? 1348 01:07:22,573 --> 01:07:23,053 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1349 01:07:23,173 --> 01:07:25,373 Speaker 2: Or do you want to put everything into tidal energy 1350 01:07:25,853 --> 01:07:27,413 Speaker 2: and wind farms? 1351 01:07:27,533 --> 01:07:32,853 Speaker 3: Yeah? And I don't know more hydro lakes waste energy, 1352 01:07:33,253 --> 01:07:36,253 Speaker 3: waste energy that has potential. So I've read anyway, but 1353 01:07:36,293 --> 01:07:38,173 Speaker 3: if you know more about it, Oh, eight hundred eighty 1354 01:07:38,213 --> 01:07:40,813 Speaker 3: ten eighty is that number to call? Nine to nine 1355 01:07:40,933 --> 01:07:43,213 Speaker 3: two plenty of teas coming through, but really can never 1356 01:07:43,293 --> 01:07:46,853 Speaker 3: chat with you. It is eighteen to three back for surely. 1357 01:07:47,533 --> 01:07:51,413 Speaker 1: Matt Heath and Tyler Adams afternoons taking your calls on Oh, 1358 01:07:51,453 --> 01:07:53,733 Speaker 1: eight hundred and eighty ten eighty, where's Skoda? 1359 01:07:53,853 --> 01:07:57,533 Speaker 5: Can you crack the code? PLACECDA codes every day news dogs, 1360 01:07:57,533 --> 01:07:57,853 Speaker 5: that'd be. 1361 01:07:58,293 --> 01:08:00,333 Speaker 4: It is a quarter to three and the question were 1362 01:08:00,333 --> 01:08:02,373 Speaker 4: put to you is what is the future of electricity 1363 01:08:02,373 --> 01:08:04,493 Speaker 4: generation in New Zealand On the back of our discussion 1364 01:08:04,493 --> 01:08:08,413 Speaker 4: with doctor Ratu Mattia and Open Star Technologies team, what 1365 01:08:08,453 --> 01:08:12,413 Speaker 4: they're doing with nuclear fusion sounds very exciting. But should 1366 01:08:12,453 --> 01:08:16,213 Speaker 4: we be pumping more money into that sort of a 1367 01:08:16,293 --> 01:08:18,492 Speaker 4: research or do we need to be going full noise 1368 01:08:18,532 --> 01:08:20,133 Speaker 4: into renewables. 1369 01:08:19,452 --> 01:08:23,933 Speaker 2: And looks as the good doctor said, they have the 1370 01:08:23,933 --> 01:08:26,532 Speaker 2: government has come through with some money to support them. 1371 01:08:26,612 --> 01:08:29,532 Speaker 4: Yep, thirty five million, Yeah, yeah, one hundred and eighty 1372 01:08:29,532 --> 01:08:30,692 Speaker 4: ten eighties the number to call get. 1373 01:08:30,572 --> 01:08:32,372 Speaker 10: A Craig, Good afternoon. 1374 01:08:32,412 --> 01:08:33,692 Speaker 6: How's it going very good? 1375 01:08:33,772 --> 01:08:35,132 Speaker 3: So can you hear your thoughts? 1376 01:08:36,492 --> 01:08:38,253 Speaker 16: I find it very interesting listening to that guy. I 1377 01:08:38,253 --> 01:08:40,333 Speaker 16: find it quite interesting because I learn a lot of 1378 01:08:40,372 --> 01:08:41,852 Speaker 16: that stuff in physics when I was at school. It's 1379 01:08:41,893 --> 01:08:44,492 Speaker 16: quite interesting that someone's putting into practice. But what I 1380 01:08:44,572 --> 01:08:46,572 Speaker 16: have also been following quite it for a while now. 1381 01:08:46,572 --> 01:08:50,532 Speaker 16: As they watched the documentary on BBC last year sometime 1382 01:08:50,572 --> 01:08:53,692 Speaker 16: about a company in Gymney that are looking at the 1383 01:08:53,812 --> 01:08:56,852 Speaker 16: trino's which is basically, it's just cosmic radiation that travels 1384 01:08:56,853 --> 01:08:59,133 Speaker 16: through this through the universe and nothing really stops that 1385 01:08:59,173 --> 01:09:01,932 Speaker 16: to go through concrete or whatever, and true people as well, 1386 01:09:02,652 --> 01:09:06,852 Speaker 16: and they're looking at doing little generators that basically produce 1387 01:09:06,933 --> 01:09:09,092 Speaker 16: path from about the size of like a washing machine 1388 01:09:09,093 --> 01:09:11,173 Speaker 16: that can be put behind everybody's house and it works 1389 01:09:11,253 --> 01:09:14,412 Speaker 16: during the daytime and nighttime, cloudy or whatever, and just 1390 01:09:15,732 --> 01:09:19,772 Speaker 16: producing energy from the the trino's sexual force flowing through 1391 01:09:19,772 --> 01:09:21,652 Speaker 16: the universe and all that, which I found is quite interesting. 1392 01:09:21,732 --> 01:09:23,492 Speaker 2: I never understand the stuff because I've had a bit 1393 01:09:23,492 --> 01:09:27,173 Speaker 2: about neutrino energy. But neutrinos have zero electrical charge. That's 1394 01:09:27,213 --> 01:09:29,452 Speaker 2: why they can sort of blast through everything. You know, 1395 01:09:29,532 --> 01:09:35,492 Speaker 2: most particles interact with electromagnetic force, right, So how do 1396 01:09:35,532 --> 01:09:37,892 Speaker 2: you get I've never quite understood how you get the 1397 01:09:38,013 --> 01:09:41,772 Speaker 2: energy from neutrinos when they don't have an electric charge. 1398 01:09:42,572 --> 01:09:44,973 Speaker 16: Okay, they don't have electric charge, but they have mass. 1399 01:09:45,013 --> 01:09:47,972 Speaker 16: So basically, if you think about it, like like grains 1400 01:09:47,973 --> 01:09:50,892 Speaker 16: of rice traveling through the universe and and they all 1401 01:09:51,053 --> 01:09:53,572 Speaker 16: got so much speed and mass behind them that they've 1402 01:09:53,612 --> 01:09:56,492 Speaker 16: all added. Atomically, well, they just travel through brick walls, 1403 01:09:56,492 --> 01:09:58,532 Speaker 16: they travel through I think there's something like a million 1404 01:09:58,532 --> 01:10:01,772 Speaker 16: of them travel through every square inch of human bodies 1405 01:10:01,812 --> 01:10:04,932 Speaker 16: and whatever. And because I say dense and that, they 1406 01:10:04,973 --> 01:10:07,093 Speaker 16: don't stop. But these things they are looking at doing 1407 01:10:07,133 --> 01:10:09,133 Speaker 16: at the moment is just take get energy from their 1408 01:10:09,133 --> 01:10:11,293 Speaker 16: momentum as they pass through, so they don't actually stop 1409 01:10:11,333 --> 01:10:14,173 Speaker 16: anything that has passed through on the way past and 1410 01:10:14,213 --> 01:10:16,692 Speaker 16: produce power, which means you can have like a little 1411 01:10:16,732 --> 01:10:18,492 Speaker 16: gener over in the back of your section. It just 1412 01:10:18,732 --> 01:10:20,852 Speaker 16: runs away and does those things. That's also quite a 1413 01:10:20,853 --> 01:10:23,293 Speaker 16: good idea that I'm looking at you, quite a good 1414 01:10:23,452 --> 01:10:25,053 Speaker 16: especially you get away from a nuclear power, which it 1415 01:10:25,053 --> 01:10:26,452 Speaker 16: is a little bit dirty really. It's kind of like 1416 01:10:26,492 --> 01:10:28,492 Speaker 16: old diesel motors. They don't really run very well. 1417 01:10:29,293 --> 01:10:32,412 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, incredibly effissient. But you're right, the waste 1418 01:10:32,412 --> 01:10:35,092 Speaker 3: problem is a big problem with nobody's figured out with fission. 1419 01:10:35,452 --> 01:10:38,173 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean the idea of fusion is you 1420 01:10:38,213 --> 01:10:41,293 Speaker 2: don't have that problem. Oh that's interesting stuff, Craig. I'll 1421 01:10:41,293 --> 01:10:43,452 Speaker 2: look into that more. I mean my understanding is, I 1422 01:10:43,452 --> 01:10:45,053 Speaker 2: mean it might have changed. I haven't watched the latter thing. 1423 01:10:45,133 --> 01:10:47,253 Speaker 2: But my thing is that it's been very hard to 1424 01:10:47,572 --> 01:10:49,372 Speaker 2: prove anything around neutrino energy. 1425 01:10:49,732 --> 01:10:52,253 Speaker 4: Yeah right, so yeah, so it sounds like there's probably 1426 01:10:52,253 --> 01:10:55,533 Speaker 4: a long time to go before that's commercially available. 1427 01:10:55,572 --> 01:10:56,572 Speaker 3: But interesting idea. 1428 01:10:56,772 --> 01:10:58,572 Speaker 4: Oh e one hundred and eighty ten eighty can you 1429 01:10:58,612 --> 01:11:00,812 Speaker 4: hear from you what is the future of energy in 1430 01:11:00,853 --> 01:11:03,132 Speaker 4: New Zealand? Because there's no doubt we do have problems 1431 01:11:03,133 --> 01:11:06,613 Speaker 4: around energy production in New Zealand, not just us Ossie 1432 01:11:06,652 --> 01:11:08,973 Speaker 4: are really struggling with the same thing. So where do 1433 01:11:09,053 --> 01:11:12,133 Speaker 4: we put our investment? Is it the likes of nuclear effusion? 1434 01:11:12,572 --> 01:11:14,972 Speaker 4: At the moment the governor puts has put thirty five 1435 01:11:15,013 --> 01:11:17,652 Speaker 4: million bucks in? Should they just go full noise, put 1436 01:11:17,692 --> 01:11:19,692 Speaker 4: a billion in and hope for the best? 1437 01:11:20,173 --> 01:11:23,093 Speaker 2: Hang On, hang on, Saysustick. Did did doctor Ratu say 1438 01:11:23,173 --> 01:11:26,492 Speaker 2: they are levitating a half ton magnet with no supports connections? Today? 1439 01:11:26,853 --> 01:11:29,572 Speaker 2: Hear that right? Isn't that an achievement in itself? Yeah? 1440 01:11:29,572 --> 01:11:31,372 Speaker 2: I think that is their big achievement. People didn't think 1441 01:11:31,372 --> 01:11:35,053 Speaker 2: that was possible. So they're all just working out ways too. 1442 01:11:35,133 --> 01:11:37,572 Speaker 2: Because you have to make the plasma one hundred and 1443 01:11:37,652 --> 01:11:42,772 Speaker 2: fifty million degrees, so you know it's it's one one 1444 01:11:42,772 --> 01:11:47,732 Speaker 2: point five million degrees, so whatever, it has hugely difficult 1445 01:11:47,772 --> 01:11:48,412 Speaker 2: to house that. 1446 01:11:48,893 --> 01:11:50,172 Speaker 3: So they're destroying your equipment. 1447 01:11:50,253 --> 01:11:52,692 Speaker 2: So their thing is there, they're semiconducting. Mean, it's in 1448 01:11:52,692 --> 01:11:56,213 Speaker 2: the middle, so it pulls the plasma around it. Yeah, 1449 01:11:56,253 --> 01:11:58,812 Speaker 2: it's incredible stuff. It's very very cool. 1450 01:11:58,893 --> 01:11:59,253 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1451 01:11:59,333 --> 01:12:01,333 Speaker 4: Nine two ninety two is the text as well. We're 1452 01:12:01,372 --> 01:12:02,852 Speaker 4: keen to hear from you, Oh, eight hundred and eighty 1453 01:12:02,973 --> 01:12:06,412 Speaker 4: ten eighty. It is eleven minutes to three bag very shortly. 1454 01:12:06,973 --> 01:12:09,412 Speaker 1: The issues that affect you and a bit of fun 1455 01:12:09,452 --> 01:12:13,733 Speaker 1: along the way. Matt Heath and Tyler Adams afternoons News Talks. 1456 01:12:15,053 --> 01:12:17,053 Speaker 4: News Talks there b it is a two three what 1457 01:12:17,173 --> 01:12:19,892 Speaker 4: is the future of energy generation in New Zealand? Love 1458 01:12:19,933 --> 01:12:21,173 Speaker 4: to hear from you, get a John. 1459 01:12:22,652 --> 01:12:25,572 Speaker 17: That was a very interesting talk that guy gave. I 1460 01:12:25,612 --> 01:12:28,013 Speaker 17: remember seeing him on TV about must Don about a 1461 01:12:28,053 --> 01:12:31,452 Speaker 17: year ago and they game. We got an interview then. 1462 01:12:31,492 --> 01:12:35,093 Speaker 17: But as a side matter, I remember in the sixties 1463 01:12:35,133 --> 01:12:38,972 Speaker 17: when I was reading about infusion and it was Russia 1464 01:12:39,053 --> 01:12:42,253 Speaker 17: that actually told the West because the West were, instead 1465 01:12:42,293 --> 01:12:45,533 Speaker 17: of a magnet of the West, were using steel, different metals, 1466 01:12:45,692 --> 01:12:48,692 Speaker 17: you know, to try and contain the heat, and Russia 1467 01:12:48,732 --> 01:12:51,213 Speaker 17: said no, no is magnets. So that's the one of 1468 01:12:51,293 --> 01:12:51,692 Speaker 17: the Russia. 1469 01:12:51,692 --> 01:12:53,732 Speaker 3: I suppose that is one for them. 1470 01:12:53,772 --> 01:12:56,293 Speaker 2: But apparently in all the time down in Wellington, we 1471 01:12:56,293 --> 01:13:01,173 Speaker 2: were making incredible semiconducting magnets down there, so incredible. 1472 01:13:01,293 --> 01:13:01,692 Speaker 18: Yeah. 1473 01:13:02,572 --> 01:13:07,532 Speaker 17: What I wanted to know really was with with the 1474 01:13:07,732 --> 01:13:12,173 Speaker 17: LGI find natural gas plant at Taranaking. I'd like to 1475 01:13:12,173 --> 01:13:14,293 Speaker 17: know what the price of natural gas is going to 1476 01:13:14,253 --> 01:13:16,333 Speaker 17: be because there's lot of houses in Auckland in New 1477 01:13:16,412 --> 01:13:19,932 Speaker 17: Zealand naturally that are on natural gas for water and 1478 01:13:19,973 --> 01:13:22,612 Speaker 17: for everything. There's a lot that are just on heat, 1479 01:13:22,692 --> 01:13:25,372 Speaker 17: on vibes and that sort of thing, but there's a 1480 01:13:25,372 --> 01:13:28,253 Speaker 17: lot that are on soft water and complete. I'd imagine 1481 01:13:28,293 --> 01:13:29,652 Speaker 17: that's going to go up by a hello, a lot 1482 01:13:29,732 --> 01:13:32,013 Speaker 17: because you know, at the moment we're getting natural gas 1483 01:13:32,053 --> 01:13:35,652 Speaker 17: from the Taranichi basin, but if you have to import 1484 01:13:35,692 --> 01:13:37,772 Speaker 17: it from I know Australia's got a ton of it, 1485 01:13:37,973 --> 01:13:39,372 Speaker 17: but I don't know if we'll get it from Australia 1486 01:13:39,452 --> 01:13:41,893 Speaker 17: or Singapore, but I can imagine it's going to be 1487 01:13:42,013 --> 01:13:45,253 Speaker 17: very expensive. And I was I didn't know that Luxon 1488 01:13:45,293 --> 01:13:49,452 Speaker 17: when he resigned He did not mention the price of 1489 01:13:49,933 --> 01:13:54,133 Speaker 17: natural gas coming down. He said power will come down, 1490 01:13:54,133 --> 01:13:55,933 Speaker 17: but he did not say that. It was careful not 1491 01:13:55,973 --> 01:13:58,333 Speaker 17: to mention a natural gas because I don't know what's 1492 01:13:58,333 --> 01:13:59,893 Speaker 17: going to hand all these people on natural gas. I 1493 01:13:59,933 --> 01:14:02,093 Speaker 17: can't imagine it being you know, is it going to 1494 01:14:02,093 --> 01:14:04,372 Speaker 17: got by forty percent?

And I 1673 01:22:15,853 --> 01:22:18,173 Speaker 2: want to hear the side of it as well, Who 1674 01:22:18,253 --> 01:22:21,453 Speaker 2: thinks that it's your right to just take your groceries 1675 01:22:21,452 --> 01:22:24,532 Speaker 2: in a shopping trolley, walk it up a street and 1676 01:22:24,532 --> 01:22:26,013 Speaker 2: then when you get close enough to your hand, take 1677 01:22:26,093 --> 01:22:29,492 Speaker 2: the shopping out and leave the shopping trolley. How could 1678 01:22:29,572 --> 01:22:33,612 Speaker 2: you operate in a world? I think that if you 1679 01:22:33,692 --> 01:22:35,812 Speaker 2: see someone walking down the street and they've left a 1680 01:22:35,933 --> 01:22:38,253 Speaker 2: supermarket with the shopping and the trolley, I think you 1681 01:22:38,293 --> 01:22:41,173 Speaker 2: could arrest them and you would find out that they're 1682 01:22:41,173 --> 01:22:45,253 Speaker 2: committing other horrendous scribes. I think they checking their basement. 1683 01:22:45,293 --> 01:22:49,733 Speaker 2: They'll be keeping gimps down there. I think it signifies 1684 01:22:50,173 --> 01:22:55,732 Speaker 2: just a level of evil to just not even care 1685 01:22:55,973 --> 01:22:59,333 Speaker 2: about the fact that the shopping trolley belongs to the supermarket, 1686 01:22:59,853 --> 01:23:02,253 Speaker 2: and also that it's someone else is going to have 1687 01:23:02,333 --> 01:23:04,052 Speaker 2: to deal with the shopping trolley that you just dumped 1688 01:23:04,053 --> 01:23:04,732 Speaker 2: on their boom. 1689 01:23:05,293 --> 01:23:09,333 Speaker 4: So if they're doing the stealing super market trolleys from supermarkets, 1690 01:23:09,372 --> 01:23:12,212 Speaker 4: you reckon. It's possible that they've got an e gain situation. 1691 01:23:12,293 --> 01:23:15,213 Speaker 4: At the same time. You know that's that high level. 1692 01:23:15,253 --> 01:23:17,253 Speaker 4: But what do you say, I eatee hundred eighty ten eighty. 1693 01:23:17,452 --> 01:23:19,532 Speaker 2: I will say, what is the mentality of someone that 1694 01:23:19,532 --> 01:23:21,133 Speaker 2: would steal and dumper chopping trilly? 1695 01:23:21,253 --> 01:23:23,093 Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, come on through.

This text to end says, mate, 1704 01:23:41,253 --> 01:23:43,892 Speaker 2: not funny enough to blow such a point scoring opportunity 1705 01:23:43,893 --> 01:23:48,133 Speaker 2: to let the missus sleep, make her breakfast easy win fair? Well? No, 1706 01:23:48,333 --> 01:23:50,372 Speaker 2: is it because how much somethingy do I get when 1707 01:23:50,412 --> 01:23:51,293 Speaker 2: I'm massively hungover? 1708 01:23:51,532 --> 01:23:52,133 Speaker 20: No? None? 1709 01:23:52,173 --> 01:23:52,612 Speaker 2: Sympathy? 1710 01:23:52,893 --> 01:23:55,492 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, correct me if I'm wrong here. But 1711 01:23:55,572 --> 01:23:57,652 Speaker 4: part of it was she was massively hungover after a 1712 01:23:57,692 --> 01:24:00,012 Speaker 4: big night out six thirty in the morning. She was annoyed, 1713 01:24:00,412 --> 01:24:02,253 Speaker 4: and then was part of your mentality. I'm going to 1714 01:24:02,333 --> 01:24:04,572 Speaker 4: make you happy by sharing my joy with you. 1715 01:24:04,933 --> 01:24:07,372 Speaker 3: Have a watch of this. But clearly it just didn't land. 1716 01:24:07,492 --> 01:24:09,933 Speaker 2: Well, Wendy says, you're and consider it immature jerk. She 1717 01:24:09,973 --> 01:24:11,333 Speaker 2: should have punched you in the face. 1718 01:24:11,532 --> 01:24:11,973 Speaker 10: There is that? 1719 01:24:12,572 --> 01:24:16,772 Speaker 2: So that was worthy of domestic violence? Hey, So, anyway 1720 01:24:16,812 --> 01:24:21,253 Speaker 2: back to the supermarket trolley situation. So there's this thing, 1721 01:24:21,333 --> 01:24:23,213 Speaker 2: the supermarket trolley theory, and you must have heard of 1722 01:24:23,253 --> 01:24:26,012 Speaker 2: this I have, yep, sometimes called the shopping cart theory. 1723 01:24:26,492 --> 01:24:29,493 Speaker 2: So the basic idea is, after you've unloaded your groceries, 1724 01:24:29,532 --> 01:24:31,933 Speaker 2: you have two choices, right return the trolley to the 1725 01:24:32,013 --> 01:24:36,412 Speaker 2: designated bay, or leave it loose in the car park yep, 1726 01:24:36,612 --> 01:24:39,893 Speaker 2: right at the supermarket. So the reason why this is 1727 01:24:39,893 --> 01:24:41,372 Speaker 2: a judge of whether you're a good person or not 1728 01:24:41,612 --> 01:24:44,772 Speaker 2: is because there's no law forcing you to return the trolley. 1729 01:24:45,213 --> 01:24:47,892 Speaker 2: It's just a thing you do because you're nice. There's 1730 01:24:47,933 --> 01:24:51,732 Speaker 2: no financial reward for doing the right thing and returning 1731 01:24:51,772 --> 01:24:54,412 Speaker 2: the trolley to its bay correct and there's no real 1732 01:24:54,452 --> 01:24:58,333 Speaker 2: punishment if you don't, maybe there might be some someone 1733 01:24:58,412 --> 01:25:02,492 Speaker 2: might judge you. So returning the trolley is a test 1734 01:25:02,572 --> 01:25:04,732 Speaker 2: of whether a person will do the right thing when 1735 01:25:04,772 --> 01:25:09,333 Speaker 2: there is no enforcement, no reward, and no mediate consequence. 1736 01:25:09,772 --> 01:25:12,492 Speaker 2: So if you're a per type person a supermarket that 1737 01:25:12,652 --> 01:25:17,892 Speaker 2: returns the trolley, then you are generally probably more likely 1738 01:25:17,973 --> 01:25:18,892 Speaker 2: to just be a good person. 1739 01:25:19,013 --> 01:25:19,173 Speaker 10: Yep. 1740 01:25:19,333 --> 01:25:21,412 Speaker 2: I mean some people might think you're a sucker because 1741 01:25:21,452 --> 01:25:23,532 Speaker 2: you paid seven hundred dollars for your grocery, so you're 1742 01:25:23,532 --> 01:25:25,133 Speaker 2: still helping the supermarket out. 1743 01:25:25,293 --> 01:25:25,692 Speaker 3: Could be that. 1744 01:25:25,973 --> 01:25:27,973 Speaker 2: So what does that mean? If that means you're a 1745 01:25:28,013 --> 01:25:31,372 Speaker 2: good person for returning it to the bay within the 1746 01:25:31,412 --> 01:25:34,213 Speaker 2: supermarket car park. How much of a bad person are 1747 01:25:34,293 --> 01:25:37,612 Speaker 2: you if you're wheeling around a stolen supermarket trolley outside 1748 01:25:37,612 --> 01:25:39,612 Speaker 2: of the supermarket and then just dumping it on someone's 1749 01:25:39,612 --> 01:25:44,293 Speaker 2: butt burm Many magnitudes are worse a person than someone 1750 01:25:44,333 --> 01:25:47,293 Speaker 2: that just leaves the shopping trolley somewhere randomly in the 1751 01:25:47,333 --> 01:25:47,692 Speaker 2: car park. 1752 01:25:47,812 --> 01:25:47,972 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1753 01:25:48,293 --> 01:25:50,173 Speaker 4: Do you know the most egregious part about that for 1754 01:25:50,293 --> 01:25:52,173 Speaker 4: me is they lift it on your bom and not 1755 01:25:52,253 --> 01:25:54,972 Speaker 4: their own burm. Because you can say, yep, it's theft 1756 01:25:55,013 --> 01:25:57,652 Speaker 4: taking the trolley outside of the supermarket grounds. But if 1757 01:25:57,692 --> 01:25:59,972 Speaker 4: you genuinely had a good reason for needing it, maybe 1758 01:25:59,973 --> 01:26:02,492 Speaker 4: you've got a dicky knee, who knows. But then the 1759 01:26:02,652 --> 01:26:05,092 Speaker 4: very fact that you just dump it outside of somebody 1760 01:26:05,133 --> 01:26:08,253 Speaker 4: else property instead of your own, that's what really goals, 1761 01:26:08,572 --> 01:26:11,892 Speaker 4: because you've got a genuine reason for having it, put. 1762 01:26:11,772 --> 01:26:12,772 Speaker 3: It on your own bloody burm. 1763 01:26:13,093 --> 01:26:13,293 Speaker 10: Yeah. 1764 01:26:13,293 --> 01:26:15,253 Speaker 2: But see, that's that's the thing that I think is 1765 01:26:15,293 --> 01:26:18,213 Speaker 2: really scummy because you have obviously used it, but you 1766 01:26:18,492 --> 01:26:21,372 Speaker 2: don't want to take the heat from taking the shopping trolley. 1767 01:26:21,452 --> 01:26:23,293 Speaker 4: Yeah, so you've dumped it on somebody else. Oh, one 1768 01:26:23,372 --> 01:26:26,452 Speaker 4: hundred eighty ten eighty is the number to call. Really 1769 01:26:26,532 --> 01:26:28,972 Speaker 4: keen to hear your thoughts about why what's the mentality 1770 01:26:29,053 --> 01:26:31,652 Speaker 4: that goes through someone's mind who steals a supermarket trolley? 1771 01:26:32,333 --> 01:26:33,732 Speaker 3: Kevin, how are you hello? 1772 01:26:33,973 --> 01:26:34,333 Speaker 7: Do they go? 1773 01:26:34,532 --> 01:26:34,812 Speaker 6: How are you? 1774 01:26:35,093 --> 01:26:35,412 Speaker 2: Very good? 1775 01:26:36,013 --> 01:26:38,133 Speaker 10: Hey, we've just got to follow what Australia does.

And the other thing that happens is that 2054 01:39:39,412 --> 01:39:42,852 Speaker 10: when people do actually get caught, it doesn't seem to 2055 01:39:42,933 --> 01:39:45,093 Speaker 10: be it doesn't seem and I'm not talking about crime 2056 01:39:45,133 --> 01:39:48,253 Speaker 10: and punishment, but there doesn't seem to be any embarrassment 2057 01:39:48,333 --> 01:39:52,092 Speaker 10: from people who actually get prosecuted by it. There's virtually 2058 01:39:52,213 --> 01:39:55,372 Speaker 10: no there's virtually nothing you can do to them for 2059 01:39:55,492 --> 01:39:59,092 Speaker 10: the small for the small things that people do that'll actually, 2060 01:39:59,612 --> 01:40:02,692 Speaker 10: I mean, nothing's going to deter them because they don't 2061 01:40:02,692 --> 01:40:04,172 Speaker 10: have a respect for other people's property. 2062 01:40:04,492 --> 01:40:07,293 Speaker 2: If if you took a supermarket trolley full of food 2063 01:40:07,333 --> 01:40:10,213 Speaker 2: and you wielded all the way home and then unpack 2064 01:40:10,293 --> 01:40:12,612 Speaker 2: your groceries and just dump the supermarket trolley on a boom, 2065 01:40:12,652 --> 01:40:17,333 Speaker 2: you're definitely not caring at all that people because you 2066 01:40:17,412 --> 01:40:20,092 Speaker 2: know everyone that you pass can see that you're doing something. 2067 01:40:20,532 --> 01:40:23,333 Speaker 2: You've stolen the trolley. See, you're exactly right. You must 2068 01:40:23,372 --> 01:40:25,652 Speaker 2: be thinking that no one judges me for this, or 2069 01:40:25,692 --> 01:40:28,173 Speaker 2: I don't care, or there's no you're just so sure 2070 01:40:28,213 --> 01:40:29,452 Speaker 2: there's no repercussions for it. 2071 01:40:31,173 --> 01:40:34,213 Speaker 10: But it's it's unfortunately, there's I'm not sure what the 2072 01:40:34,333 --> 01:40:36,213 Speaker 10: answer is, but I think one of it is one 2073 01:40:36,213 --> 01:40:38,213 Speaker 10: of one of the things you've got to do is 2074 01:40:38,692 --> 01:40:43,253 Speaker 10: reinforce through the education system and reinforce of parents that 2075 01:40:43,372 --> 01:40:46,412 Speaker 10: people have got to people have to start talking about 2076 01:40:46,452 --> 01:40:48,732 Speaker 10: the respect for other people's property. I mean, I've got 2077 01:40:48,772 --> 01:40:50,972 Speaker 10: a guy, I've got a guy in extolled with my daughter. 2078 01:40:51,853 --> 01:40:55,932 Speaker 10: He shows no respect. He's coming up on five charges 2079 01:40:56,013 --> 01:41:00,852 Speaker 10: of five charges that he's of breaking the law with 2080 01:41:01,013 --> 01:41:05,333 Speaker 10: regards to her and her property. He doesn't care. He 2081 01:41:05,372 --> 01:41:07,492 Speaker 10: doesn't care because there's nothing's going to happen to him. 2082 01:41:07,532 --> 01:41:09,372 Speaker 10: What's going to happen is is that he gets a 2083 01:41:09,532 --> 01:41:13,532 Speaker 10: free lawyer and he goes along the court and what 2084 01:41:13,652 --> 01:41:15,692 Speaker 10: do they do. They can't find them. He's on a benefit. 2085 01:41:16,053 --> 01:41:18,492 Speaker 10: I mean, it's just a waste of time. And it's just, 2086 01:41:19,013 --> 01:41:22,133 Speaker 10: you know, the damage that these people do doesn't have 2087 01:41:22,173 --> 01:41:25,173 Speaker 10: any consequences. I mean, I'm not talking about taking people 2088 01:41:25,213 --> 01:41:26,812 Speaker 10: out and putting them on White Island for a couple 2089 01:41:26,812 --> 01:41:28,933 Speaker 10: of weeks. I mean I'd like to, but you know, 2090 01:41:28,933 --> 01:41:30,692 Speaker 10: at the end of the day, that's not that's that's 2091 01:41:30,772 --> 01:41:32,933 Speaker 10: too much. I think we have to reap, we have 2092 01:41:33,053 --> 01:41:35,133 Speaker 10: to educate people, and we have to start now. 2093 01:41:35,532 --> 01:41:37,173 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think if you call out, i mean, taking 2094 01:41:37,173 --> 01:41:39,213 Speaker 2: them out from them whileladed for a couple of weeks 2095 01:41:39,253 --> 01:41:42,173 Speaker 2: would be that sounds kind of fair. But Gladdy Junter Justice, 2096 01:41:42,213 --> 01:41:44,053 Speaker 2: it's interesting that that idea that you can just roll 2097 01:41:44,093 --> 01:41:46,492 Speaker 2: down the street with no one ever commenting. A friend 2098 01:41:46,532 --> 01:41:49,053 Speaker 2: of mine was a terrible litter bug. He wasn't a 2099 01:41:49,133 --> 01:41:52,452 Speaker 2: tidy keiwi. Opposite of a tidy kiwi. And he was 2100 01:41:52,692 --> 01:41:57,093 Speaker 2: walking along and he dropped a coke bottle. And I 2101 01:41:57,173 --> 01:41:59,613 Speaker 2: was always disgusted by his littering, because. 2102 01:41:59,772 --> 01:42:01,172 Speaker 3: You know, all we do is keywi's. 2103 01:42:01,213 --> 01:42:03,133 Speaker 2: Come on, I would have been my dad would have 2104 01:42:03,692 --> 01:42:07,133 Speaker 2: given me a thick hair littering.
