Speaker 1: You're listening to the Marcus lush Night's podcast from News Talks.
Speaker 2: A'd be welcome to New Zealand. Marcus here till midnight tonight.
Speaker 2: I hope things are good where you are. I hope
Speaker 2: in the next three and a half hours, three hours
Speaker 2: fifty three. If they're not good, they will get better. Obviously,
Speaker 2: a big deal with the old supermarket of Victoria Park.
Speaker 2: That's where, well some of you will know where that is,
Speaker 2: near the old Victoria Park markets, just across the road
Speaker 2: from there. It's a weird kind of supermakers. You park downstairs,
Speaker 2: it's all above there. Oh yes, it's quite she she
Speaker 2: two people going from the gym buying skinless chicken and things.
Speaker 2: So that's well involved that far of you and I
Speaker 2: witness there have got any stories from that today. I
Speaker 2: don't know if the cars still stuck. You're probably more
Speaker 2: across that than I am. Feels real reminiscent of the
Speaker 2: fire at the convention set. It doesn't it one of
Speaker 2: those ones that goes on and on and on and
Speaker 2: maybe is still burning. You might have some information. You
Speaker 2: got to fight the all night. I imagine the food's
Speaker 2: all gone. Imagine that we quite the insurance claim to
Speaker 2: work out what food's there? Goodness, foreigner souper. I can't
Speaker 2: even think of the present for a foreigner supermarket, kin'd
Speaker 2: of I think the last time that happened, so you
Speaker 2: might have some information about that would be of interest
Speaker 2: to me. I will keep you updated with the news
Speaker 2: around the next three hours fifty three minutes. I know
Speaker 2: that Trump has left the G seven. There was some
Speaker 2: talk about heading around with a bunker buster. I don't
Speaker 2: know if that was just talk. The story seems to
Speaker 2: have become more complicated than that than that in the
Speaker 2: last couple of hours since I've been following that story.
Speaker 2: So if anything happens there, and I think we'll know
Speaker 2: if something happens there, I will let you know about it.
Speaker 2: See won't miss the news by sitting it settling in
Speaker 2: here for the next three hours and fifty two minutes. Gosh,
Speaker 2: I'm quick at working out the calculation, aren't I what
Speaker 2: I try to do today? Because it's fifty years since
Speaker 2: the movie Jaws, and I decide I wanted to watch it,
Speaker 2: having never seen it, couldn't work out where to go
Speaker 2: and see that. If someone could help me where to
Speaker 2: go and watch Jaws. Where do you find all the
Speaker 2: old movies? I kind of did a quick google on
Speaker 2: how to watch it, and then I was on the
Speaker 2: second hand shops. So there's some VHS's, but I've got
Speaker 2: a VHS player. So if anyone I've really keen this
Speaker 2: week to discuss Jaws, the book or the movie, but
Speaker 2: first of all, I've got to watch it. I intended
Speaker 2: to front up tonight having watched it. That didn't happen
Speaker 2: for me because I couldn't find the damn thing. So
Speaker 2: if anyone knows where I can watch Jaws. Apparently the
Speaker 2: book in the movie are quite different. The book is
Speaker 2: really good as well, but different from the movie. The
Speaker 2: book's got more subplots. But yes, fifty years I remember
Speaker 2: it vividly when it came out. The thing that was
Speaker 2: most terrifying about it was the poster and the music.
Speaker 2: Don't know if anyone watched that recently or know where
Speaker 2: they can watch it. If you've got information about that,
Speaker 2: do let me know. Eight hundred and eighty ten eighty
Speaker 2: and nine two year, fifty years from the I think
Speaker 2: the book came The movie came out for Rest soon
Speaker 2: after the book. It might have even been the same year.
Speaker 2: I think the whole story of the making of Jaws
Speaker 2: was some of you will know more about this than
Speaker 2: I do. That because the mechanical shark didn't function very well,
Speaker 2: they had to film in a different way, which made
Speaker 2: it even more terrifying because the threat and menace was
Speaker 2: implied rather than some mechanical thing. But you know what
Speaker 2: I love. I love the fact they never remade it.
Speaker 2: And that's a topic. They're just they're sitting there, isn't
Speaker 2: it the movies. You're very happy they haven't remade Well,
Speaker 2: let's put Jaws top of the list, although having never
Speaker 2: seen it, I'm always an expert on that, because what
Speaker 2: a terrible thing that would be. Could you have some
Speaker 2: agi gpt CGI shark coming at you wouldn't look good
Speaker 2: at all. So I'm very happy they haven't remade Jaws.
Speaker 2: You might want to comment on this also, very happy
Speaker 2: they haven't remade the Sound of Music. Very happy they
Speaker 2: haven't remade Star Wars. Well, we'll think of all the
Speaker 2: movies they could have remade, they just didn't do that.
Speaker 2: Thank you people for not doing that. Anyway, that's something
Speaker 2: you might want to mention too, So get in touch.
Speaker 2: You want to be a part of the show. If
Speaker 2: there's something else you want to mention talk about, get
Speaker 2: in touch. Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty, get in
Speaker 2: touch here till twelve nine to nine to is the texts,
Speaker 2: by the way, just as a complete different I don't
Speaker 2: want to chuck too many topics that you're to start with,
Speaker 2: but it feels like it's going to be one of
Speaker 2: those nights he'd be read that be where that lugie
Speaker 2: that's going around one hundred day. Heck, you don't want
Speaker 2: that goodness anyway. I'll tell you more about that some
Speaker 2: other time. Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty. This day
Speaker 2: in twenty eight a millionarire I the first woman to
Speaker 2: fly across the Atlantic. Pushy husband, they reckon Gary, It's Marcus.
Speaker 2: Good evening and welcome. Oh you mice good Gary good, Gary,
Speaker 2: very good, Gary.
Speaker 3: Bloody yell fifty years ago since I had to leave
Speaker 3: the theater because I pull my eyes out with parents
Speaker 3: were terrified. Not that old. Parents decided it was a
Speaker 3: great idea, even though we lived near the beach. Let's
Speaker 3: go see Jaws. Fantastic idea when I was ten years old. Great,
Speaker 3: So the part that got me it was all bit
Speaker 3: as scary, But the part that got me was when
Speaker 3: the boat started to he was feeding the I remember
Speaker 3: it distinctly. He was feeding the slush out going I
Speaker 3: don't have to feed this stuff out. I don't think
Speaker 3: the sharks and have turned out. Next minute it jumped
Speaker 3: out of the water at him and I just lost it,
Speaker 3: falling my eyes out. Parents took me out of the
Speaker 3: theater and fact then you had a custodian who looked
Speaker 3: after the theater, so they took me into their office
Speaker 3: and they had all the posters of doors as well,
Speaker 3: I know. And I settled down and I was all good.
Speaker 3: And then as a many of the custodian signed a
Speaker 3: poster and gave it to me.
Speaker 4: Mom and Dad put it up on the wall.
Speaker 3: And I didn't sleep for a week and I never
Speaker 3: went in the water for years.
Speaker 2: Did your parents go back and enjoy the rest of
Speaker 2: the film, Yes, it's a good story. When did you
Speaker 2: find when did when did you finally see it?
Speaker 5: The end of it? Yeah?
Speaker 6: When did bick age later? Bick age later?
Speaker 3: And then I watched the sequels as well?
Speaker 7: I know that.
Speaker 2: Yes, okay, one, two, and.
Speaker 3: Three, I think yes, But traumatized, never went in the
Speaker 3: sea for probably five years.
Speaker 6: Horrific.
Speaker 2: It's well, I never saw them, but there was a
Speaker 2: neighbor across the road and their father was quite a
Speaker 2: military type person. He I mean, never took his kids
Speaker 2: to the movie, just stayed open. Took us three kids,
Speaker 2: I think, almost a tougher them up and I thought,
Speaker 2: jeepest creepers. That was a tough move and as a
Speaker 2: rest by that. But I never saw it. I missed
Speaker 2: the boat, was scared. Never seen it in my life.
Speaker 2: Can't wait to see it. Can't work out where I
Speaker 2: can see it.
Speaker 3: On YouTube and just look out Jaws and then find
Speaker 3: the movie link for Jaws. I've watched the Waltons, all
Speaker 3: the ard stuff on YouTube. We just find it and
Speaker 3: watch it, you.
Speaker 2: Know, Will Jaws be on YouTube?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 5: They thanks on you man.
Speaker 3: Just you do a little bit of a search. I'm
Speaker 3: sure you'll find it.
Speaker 9: Haven't you giving me a poster?
Speaker 10: Oh?
Speaker 2: I can't believe it. Because the poster was terrifying, The
Speaker 2: music was terrifying.
Speaker 3: It was all terrifying, exactly, exactly, just nuts. Because I'm
Speaker 3: sweet and just thinking about it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, because because living in Bluff there were people
Speaker 2: always asking me if I want to go and go
Speaker 2: shark watching where they drop in their cage, and I'm
Speaker 2: thinking I couldn't think anything worse.
Speaker 3: You're in a cage, you'll be right.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I wouldn't want to go. Gary, not that interested.
Speaker 2: Thank you too for Tuesday. We've got two. Gary's got
Speaker 2: a doublehead of garys. Second Gary, Gary, but two it's Marcus.
Speaker 2: Welcome Marcus.
Speaker 11: Hey, you want to know we watched yours. Okay, you
Speaker 11: can stream it on Neon or Apple TV and JB
Speaker 11: Hi Fi sell the DVDs.
Speaker 2: Wow, would most people still have a DVD player? I
Speaker 2: don't even know if I would have one.
Speaker 11: Yeah, probably for most of your Blu ray players will
Speaker 11: play DVDs as well.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's why I think i'm sort of in the
Speaker 2: in the Okay, we've got a JB High fight down.
Speaker 2: They'll try that and report back. The poster if you
Speaker 2: don't know, the poster is that great lettering of duwelers.
Speaker 2: And then you've got a woman swimming and she might
Speaker 2: be naked, she might be a skinny dipper, and then
Speaker 2: most of the poster is just a shark surface about
Speaker 2: to take her.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So that's a pretty interesting story, is it. And the
Speaker 2: shark looks menacing April. It's Marcus, Welcome.
Speaker 12: Marcus Hello. I just had to talk to you about Jaws.
Speaker 12: When that came out, I was seventeen at the movies,
Speaker 12: and back then I think it was pretty well made,
Speaker 12: and it was damn scary and at the tender age
Speaker 12: of seventeen, like so many other people that are probably
Speaker 12: going to ring, and I was terrified to go in
Speaker 12: the ocean after that. Look, even I take we'd go
Speaker 12: on holidays to Tatne and then we beat j Nelson
Speaker 12: And if anyone knows what I back, it's.
Speaker 13: Like a milk on about you.
Speaker 2: It is too if the water.
Speaker 14: Came up past my chest, who would be terrified? There
Speaker 14: was going to be a sharkner And that's been one
Speaker 14: of my favorite I've never been too scared to watch
Speaker 14: a movie, but the impression it made on me was lifelong.
Speaker 2: Where did you, April? Where did you see it? Who
Speaker 2: did you see it with? Were you and Nelson?
Speaker 12: It would have been with my with my boyfriend at
Speaker 12: the time.
Speaker 15: I saw it in.
Speaker 14: The movie theater in donedan Wow and.
Speaker 2: Hang on did you Holiday? And Tahuna Nui from Dunedin. Yes,
Speaker 2: often every year that's a drive.
Speaker 14: We'd go up for a couple of weeks and stay
Speaker 14: out there.
Speaker 2: I want a mission. That'd be like a twelve hour drive,
Speaker 2: wouldn't it.
Speaker 14: Yeah, Oh, we did it in a couple of a
Speaker 14: couple of days. We'd sometimes stop in christ Church on
Speaker 14: the way up. But we loved it up there. But
Speaker 14: even in that water, I was still terrified, and to
Speaker 14: this day I've never felt the same about swimming in
Speaker 14: the ocean. It really did have a lasting effect. And
Speaker 14: they did make a Jaws two and the George Jaws three,
Speaker 14: but they didn't measure up and they.
Speaker 2: Didn't but they didn't remake. They didn't remake the original either,
Speaker 2: which I think is the best thing with because I'm
Speaker 2: sure there's a temptation to bring the real crash hot animatronics,
Speaker 2: you know, CG CGI, and they've never done that because
Speaker 2: I think probably what was quite good about it was
Speaker 2: that the mechanical shark didn't really work, so it was
Speaker 2: used quite sparingly.
Speaker 14: He I think I remember reading that Steven Spielberg, who
Speaker 14: was quite young at the time when he made that movie,
Speaker 14: just to spared sometimes with the mechanical shaft didn't behave.
Speaker 14: It didn't behave, but we didn't know that when we
Speaker 14: were watching it, obviously. I think I also remember reading
Speaker 14: that because he was quite young and he had quite
Speaker 14: a lot of headstrong actors in the film. But that
Speaker 14: was a bit much from two the Old Sea Captain
Speaker 14: apparently the chiefmin that played that role actually was a
Speaker 14: bit of a drinker and it made the acting a
Speaker 14: little bit more real maybe at times. And he didn't
Speaker 14: get on with Richard Dracus apparently, so that caused a
Speaker 14: good attention.
Speaker 13: From what I've read over the years.
Speaker 14: But if I think, you've still got to pay per
Speaker 14: view if you want to see it on YouTube or
Speaker 14: something like that. But it was on Netflix for a
Speaker 14: long time and I used to watch it once a month,
Speaker 14: So not scared of the movie. Totally impressed with it
Speaker 14: for the way it was for the time, but honestly, yeah,
Speaker 14: just terrified me. And I used to love to swim
Speaker 14: in the ocean. I'd dive in the waves, so new
Speaker 14: I got beaches inndermedia and we used to spend a
Speaker 14: lot of time in them.
Speaker 2: But you know, of course, seems quite shocking. Well, thanks
Speaker 2: so much, Donna, quickly, Marcus welcome.
Speaker 16: Hi, it's Donna. I just thought i'll tell you Acus.
Speaker 17: If you've got sky towards.
Speaker 18: The is on Saturday night, is it really?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 12: I saw in the Buddhistment today on Bravo on the movies.
Speaker 2: On the movie, we've got sky. But on the movies.
Speaker 17: No, no, it's not on the movies.
Speaker 16: It's on Bravo.
Speaker 2: Oh wow, jupesscreepers. It's we can sort it out. I'll
Speaker 2: watch the kids. I'll get the kids to watch. Okay, Donna,
Speaker 2: thank you. Remind me that Dan, that's good for Matarika. Yeah, okay, yes,
Speaker 2: Sky Bravo. Oh that's brilliant, brilliant. Okay, I appreciate that.
Speaker 2: Our line's free. If you want to talk. We're talking
Speaker 2: Sharks and Jaws. Why not just a couple of things.
Speaker 2: Quickly they called the mechanical shark Bruce, after Steven Spielberg's lawyer.
Speaker 2: That's quite funny. And the production of Jaws was such
Speaker 2: a was such a troublesome experience, the crew nicknamed the
Speaker 2: movie Flaws rather than Jaws. Are like that. Twenty three
Speaker 2: past eight, Louis, it's Marcus, welcome.
Speaker 15: Why.
Speaker 19: I think the reason why they haven't remade.
Speaker 15: The Jaws is because the guy who wrote the.
Speaker 19: Book was at Brenchley or Peter Brenchley, and also Stephen Spielberg.
Speaker 19: They both expressed enormous regret at the impact that the
Speaker 19: film had on the public section of sharks. And yeah,
Speaker 19: because the decimation of the shark population since that, the
Speaker 19: people saw them as you know, like you know, shark
Speaker 19: hunting and fishing and all of that. Yeah, So it's
Speaker 19: interesting what a film can have, the effects, the cultural
Speaker 19: effect that can have.
Speaker 2: So I was reading that last night, according to Benchley's widow,
Speaker 2: that he spent a lot of his later life, you know,
Speaker 2: really campaigning and putting money towards the preservation protection of
Speaker 2: sharks because he I mean, look, I don't know what
Speaker 2: it was like before that. It's hard to remember what
Speaker 2: it was like because I was only ten at the time.
Speaker 2: But it's hard to remember if people were terrified of
Speaker 2: sharks pre the movie.
Speaker 19: Pet's not to that extent though, because it really was
Speaker 19: an early horror movie, wasn't it.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and look just all of it, the music, everything,
Speaker 2: and just you know, you didn't even have to see
Speaker 2: it to be terrified by them.
Speaker 19: They're always playing it is that callers said they always
Speaker 19: replay it on television like three times a year on that.
Speaker 19: I know you probably don't watch free to air channels one, two,
Speaker 19: and three, but they're forever playing it.
Speaker 2: Apparently it's on channel it's on Bravo, which is free
Speaker 2: to wear on Sunday nights, so that's channel four or
Speaker 2: channel twelve. So I will be watching it if the kids.
Speaker 2: I don't know, if I've got trouble with our kids,
Speaker 2: right because our kids jump off the wharf at Bluff.
Speaker 19: I wouldn't show it to them, definitely, no.
Speaker 2: But the thing with them jumping off the wolf at Bluff,
Speaker 2: it's it's controversial because they're always having fights with the council.
Speaker 2: But now one of the news in shark Experts to
Speaker 2: see that's the same place the boats come in and
Speaker 2: they're fillitting fish and doing stuff like that. Sounds like
Speaker 2: a perfect shark spot. So oh no, okay, there's sea
Speaker 2: scouts as well, so don't want to fill them with
Speaker 2: Tara Marcus, how really old? Are you lush? Not seeing Jaws?
Speaker 2: Are you a sock? Get real?
Speaker 10: Oh?
Speaker 2: I'm desperate to see it, but you know, I forgot
Speaker 2: to see it for a long time. And now I'm
Speaker 2: looking back and realizing it's fifty years and I'm appalled.
Speaker 2: I can't wait to see it. I think of all
Speaker 2: the conversations of used out because I couldn't say we're
Speaker 2: going to need a bigger boats, because that's what you say,
Speaker 2: isn't it when you're at sea? Jules Marcus, Good evening, Marcus.
Speaker 20: Did you ever work at Armadillo? Yes, in krop.
Speaker 2: Simon Street, f Street. Yeah, yeah, anyway, Eden, Wellington, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I remember that.
Speaker 20: Anyway. My story about the Jaws is that I couldn't
Speaker 20: stand university, so I left it my first year. I
Speaker 20: went traveling and I was walking along Oxford Street with
Speaker 20: my handy Canon camera and I saw it crowd forming,
Speaker 20: and I thought I'd go along there. So I went
Speaker 20: along there and it was Andy Warhol and is then
Speaker 20: very young mus.
Speaker 2: And Oxford Street, Sydney or in London, London, yep, okay, yep.
Speaker 20: And I thought I was the official photographer, of course,
Speaker 20: you know, hiding behind my twenty year old fears. And
Speaker 20: they said, make way for the photographer, make way for
Speaker 20: the photographer.
Speaker 2: What year we talking.
Speaker 20: Seventy four or seventy five?
Speaker 2: Okay, you've got a young setting woice just hanging their jewels.
Speaker 2: We'll come back to the rest of the story because
Speaker 2: you're not going to be a short call, because this
Speaker 2: is a good material and we'll build it up. So
Speaker 2: just don't go anywhere jewels. Thanks Tony, Back to your jewels.
Speaker 2: So nineteen seventy four or seventy seven, what did you say, seventy.
Speaker 20: No, no, no, no, I'm fifty four. I was born in
Speaker 20: fifty fours seventy four or seventy five, okay, and had
Speaker 20: just come out and I had lucked into the crowd
Speaker 20: lining up to see Andy Warhol, and they thought I
Speaker 20: was an official photographer, so they let me in. I
Speaker 20: got all these great photos of Andy Warholf and I
Speaker 20: lined up also with the box that was his A
Speaker 20: to B again, I think it was A to b
Speaker 20: Andy Warhol is one of Andy Wowholf's books. And Andy
Speaker 20: Warhol said to me, oh, who do you want me
Speaker 20: to dedicate that to. Now remember at this time the
Speaker 20: whole world had banners about Jaws and everything, and London,
Speaker 20: Jaws was everywhere. And I said Jaws and he said, oh,
Speaker 20: that's funny. He thought I said Jaws, so he wrote
Speaker 20: me in autograph saying to Jaws, wow, it's still on
Speaker 20: my walls.
Speaker 2: And did you actually say jewels?
Speaker 20: I said jewels, but he was as Jaws. Wow, Now
Speaker 20: how's that? And I've still got it on my wall.
Speaker 20: And I just went to check it that I was
Speaker 20: still there, and I thought my wife replaced it with
Speaker 20: a Chinese painting. I found it.
Speaker 2: It's a poster of his book, is it.
Speaker 20: It's the you know, the inside cover. He wrote a
Speaker 20: book A to B. Yeah, and so you lined up
Speaker 20: to get him to sign it and he signed it
Speaker 20: on the on the inside cover, A to B to
Speaker 20: Jaws Andy wohol.
Speaker 8: Wow.
Speaker 20: And I've still got it and i've you know, I
Speaker 20: kept it very really carefully on the sid free paper
Speaker 20: and stuff. But fifty years ago you can hardly see it.
Speaker 20: Very funny story. I still have the photo.
Speaker 2: That faded away, has it?
Speaker 20: Oh you can still see it?
Speaker 21: Yeah?
Speaker 2: What a story. Thank you, Jiles. I appreciate that greatly.
Speaker 2: Sewanotte's Marcus, Well.
Speaker 21: Marcus, welcome. What a fantastic topic. I was only five
Speaker 21: years old when George came out, but I saw it later.
Speaker 21: But it's a movie where there's been several documentaries. It's
Speaker 21: had a number of unique stories. The first story is
Speaker 21: Steven Spielberg was Tho, the third string director. He'd made
Speaker 21: The American Caffeedi and he couldn't get a job with
Speaker 21: only twenty nine and a big studio wouldn't give a
Speaker 21: young man a big budget film. It's much much like
Speaker 21: Peter jackson sly story and try the directors pulled out,
Speaker 21: so we've got the movie by mistake or in his opinion,
Speaker 21: and he says he wouldn't have gone on to do
Speaker 21: Star Wars and The Terminator. He credits his entire career
Speaker 21: to Jaws being part of that film. Also, there was
Speaker 21: a series of mechanical issues. Several of these stunt actors
Speaker 21: who were working the Shark are nearly drowned. It was
Speaker 21: actually very digitual to get insurance underwriters. There were some
Speaker 21: near fatalities. And thirdly, the guy that played Quinte, who
Speaker 21: was a famous Thesman actor Broadway, was a drunk off
Speaker 21: the ship several times and nearly drowned. They had to
Speaker 21: rescue them. It was a movie set with everything from
Speaker 21: the director who was never meant to direct the film,
Speaker 21: to the to the to the to the mechanics. Also,
Speaker 21: what environments are worried about is after the film came out,
Speaker 21: there was a huge spike in shark hunting and there
Speaker 21: were several endangered species around the Caribbean they were trying
Speaker 21: to protect, and that any numbers were decimated because people
Speaker 21: thought it was open season nine sharks, but not realizing
Speaker 21: some of them are protected species.
Speaker 2: Wow. I think it says originally that Spielberg wanted to
Speaker 2: use a live shark, to use live sharks for that,
Speaker 2: But that's that's why I think the production or the Yeah,
Speaker 2: they delayed because I wanted to use live shots, but
Speaker 2: had decide they did to use mechanical ones. But they
Speaker 2: just would have to scratch.
Speaker 21: And they got inside and the drowned that they nearly
Speaker 21: had fatality. It was quite a it was quite a
Speaker 21: comedy of well I say comedy of eras, but it was.
Speaker 21: It was a remarkable and did die. But he credits
Speaker 21: his later career if he didn't didn't get Jaws, he
Speaker 21: didn't believe he worked done a terminator or when part
Speaker 21: of Star Wars, he says it started with Jaws for him.
Speaker 2: You put it as one of the great movies.
Speaker 21: I do think it was one of the great movies
Speaker 21: because I thought it made people think about it was
Speaker 21: a unique subject. There was nothing like in the past.
Speaker 21: It wasn't a horror movie, it wasn't a science fiction.
Speaker 21: It was something unique. I think it was authentic, and
Speaker 21: also said Royce Schneider was a very seasoned actor, and
Speaker 21: I think it was actually quite quite a pointed thing.
Speaker 21: It may be a little bit of fake to go
Speaker 21: in the water for a while, but as I recall,
Speaker 21: but it was. I think it was a good story
Speaker 21: and shark hunting was a legitimate thing back in the
Speaker 21: early twentieth century, whale hunting because they wanted to get
Speaker 21: rid of him. And there was a lot of problems
Speaker 21: that came after it. But the first film was the best.
Speaker 21: The second and third I think they lost the magic.
Speaker 21: But the first film was the original, and Spielberg credits
Speaker 21: as one of the movies. You're way made by a mistake,
Speaker 21: but it actually gave him great career afterwards.
Speaker 2: Just I don't want to affect check you sure, but
Speaker 2: I don't think he did American Graffiti. I think that
Speaker 2: was Lucas, wasn't it.
Speaker 21: Something?
Speaker 2: I think I think Joe was his first one that
Speaker 2: had kind of done, which is just a truck chasing
Speaker 2: a car. But nice to hear from you, Seaw, this
Speaker 2: is good stuff. Guys twenty four to nine, Karram, it's Marcus.
Speaker 5: Welcome Hi Marcus. Yeah, just Jaws.
Speaker 6: It reminded me.
Speaker 5: I know this is probably going off topic, but kind
Speaker 5: of related to the Jaws. There's a movie playing called
Speaker 5: The Dangerous Animals at the moment of the cinemas.
Speaker 2: Is it a guy feeding people to live sharks?
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, it's a shark movie. But it's really interesting
Speaker 5: that they've shown the animal the humans to be actually
Speaker 5: more dangerous than the sharks, because he's doing something more
Speaker 5: dangerous than the sharks. So it's kind of like, you
Speaker 5: know what I mean, it's kind of like opposite to
Speaker 5: the Jews.
Speaker 2: What's it like? Have you seen? Have you seen it?
Speaker 22: Yeah?
Speaker 5: I actually like this.
Speaker 2: So he's a psychopath and he's catching people and feeding
Speaker 2: them the sharks, is he.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, that's what he does. And it's kind of
Speaker 5: it's you know, the message is seending is that actually
Speaker 5: the humans can be more dangerous. And I thought that's
Speaker 5: very interesting because you know how everyone's kind of like
Speaker 5: skin of sharks and then here there's this human trying
Speaker 5: to Dutch people and then feed them to the sharks
Speaker 5: and you know, so, yeah, it was quite an interesting movie. Yeah,
Speaker 5: the focus is not a lot on the shark itself.
Speaker 5: It's not really scary in that term at all. So
Speaker 5: Jaws kind of one wins out. You know, like, I
Speaker 5: don't think there'll be a shark movie made as good
Speaker 5: as the Jaws again.
Speaker 2: You know, what are the special effects like on this one?
Speaker 5: They're okay, But it's just because normally what he does
Speaker 5: is he you know, the sharks kind of like you know,
Speaker 5: he's just paus a bit of blood or whatever into
Speaker 5: the water and comes around and circles around and he's
Speaker 5: feeding these people. And it's not really much to do
Speaker 5: with the shark itself. It's he likes capturing the you
Speaker 5: know people, He likesmera and then he likes to capture
Speaker 5: to see how they're being eaten.
Speaker 2: Does he feed them? Are they alive when he's feeding
Speaker 2: them to the sharks?
Speaker 5: Yeah, he ties them to a ripe and then like
Speaker 5: kind of lowers them down into the water. And it's
Speaker 5: this whole movie is about you know, the whole rope
Speaker 5: going down, you know, the noise, it makes and the
Speaker 5: cinematography and all of that is pretty good, like you know,
Speaker 5: the movie Buff, but yeah, the shark itself, you don't
Speaker 5: really see much of it because you know, sometimes they're
Speaker 5: kind of half their bodies in the water and it's
Speaker 5: kind of eating away or something. So you know, you
Speaker 5: don't really see much of the shark.
Speaker 2: Is it a horror?
Speaker 5: It's a thriller? I mean, yeah, yeah, I think it's
Speaker 5: just a yeah, thriller. But yeah, I just found it
Speaker 5: quite interesting, you know. I mean I go to most
Speaker 5: movies that are playing, and I found this one to
Speaker 5: be kind of interesting, like a lot of other ones
Speaker 5: are just so boring.
Speaker 10: You know.
Speaker 5: It's a different take, you know.
Speaker 2: What I mean. Like, so it's a naughty film? Is
Speaker 2: that I just filmed in Australia?
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know you get the Gold Coast
Speaker 5: and everything, and it's quite well band Like sometimes you know,
Speaker 5: they can be too weird, but this is kind of
Speaker 5: it is weird, but you know it's kind of not
Speaker 5: too weird. They've kind of found a balance, I suppose,
Speaker 5: you know. So it kind of reminded me like I
Speaker 5: didn't even know what was the movie, you know, I
Speaker 5: just thought of dangerous animals and it's kind of I thought, okay,
Speaker 5: well it's a shark movie, will have started, and then
Speaker 5: you realize, actually, you know that people can be more
Speaker 5: dangerous than the sharks.
Speaker 23: You know.
Speaker 2: Nice to hear from you, Kuran, Thank you. Eighteen to nine. Jeff,
Speaker 2: it's Marcus. Good evening.
Speaker 5: Hi, Jeff, yeah believing.
Speaker 8: Oh sorry is this why call?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's your call, Jeff, This is Marcus. Welcome about that.
Speaker 8: It's just going back to talking about Jaws. That took
Speaker 8: me right back. I was twenty four years of age
Speaker 8: in Australia and I'm not about nineteen seventy four, and
Speaker 8: when the first Jaws movie came out, Yeah, sure, who
Speaker 8: was pretty scary, but it was great.
Speaker 22: It was a great movie.
Speaker 8: I went and saw Jaws two and three, but not
Speaker 8: very impressed with it. It will never be the same
Speaker 8: as Jaws one.
Speaker 2: I think there was Jaws and three D two was there.
Speaker 8: It could have been. I'm not sure about that.
Speaker 15: But the.
Speaker 8: First Jaws was really scary. My girlfriend and I were
Speaker 8: sitting there and in one part, I think she jumped
Speaker 8: about ten feet out of her seat and I had
Speaker 8: to keep telling her it's onny a movie don't get
Speaker 8: too carried away. And anyway, it was a great movie.
Speaker 8: Steelbird did a great job of making that movie. But
Speaker 8: Jaws two and three it was okay, but not the same.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I don't think anybody ever thought that Matrix were going
Speaker 2: to be in the sequel, and at least the three
Speaker 2: at least they've never remade the original. That's what I
Speaker 2: think I'm happy about. Jeff, thank you. If we had
Speaker 2: three Jeffs, two Garries, one Jeff. Oh wait, one hundred
Speaker 2: and eighty ten. It's all about Jaws tonight, fifty years brilliant,
Speaker 2: so plenty of you would have been young kids when
Speaker 2: you're dragged along to set and terrified. Someone says, watched
Speaker 2: the Shallows, another good shark movie, Marcus. When Jaws came
Speaker 2: out in South Africa, the sence has made so many cuts,
Speaker 2: everyone called it gums. I used to practice swimming for
Speaker 2: competitions beyond the breakers. My dad used to sit in
Speaker 2: the hell and watch out the Jaws. I've never gone
Speaker 2: in the ocean above my knees ruin my lovers swimming
Speaker 2: in the ocean, Marcus. Fun fact. The shark on the
Speaker 2: Jaws poster as a Marco, not a great weight. We're
Speaker 2: talking Jaws. You've got anything to add, it's a good topic. Oh,
Speaker 2: eight hundred and eighty thirty nine two nine two to text,
Speaker 2: your experiences with it, your commentary about it. Everyone loves it,
Speaker 2: don't they seems to be. I think one puts in
Speaker 2: the great the greatest, Well, in the top ten, wouldn't they.
Speaker 2: I think it's top ten, isn't it? Just from its
Speaker 2: sheer impact into popular culture?
Speaker 13: Brilliant?
Speaker 2: Not quite sure the story of the music, but that
Speaker 2: was pretty legendary as well. Steve Marcus, good evening.
Speaker 13: Andy Marcus, How are you good?
Speaker 6: Things?
Speaker 13: Good? Jaws three was the three D one. Oh, it's
Speaker 13: the marketing, pretty sure, because that was one of the
Speaker 13: first ones I saw as a lad. And I'm pretty
Speaker 13: sure they played the first Jaws on TV prior to
Speaker 13: freak Us all that. Again, that was the first time
Speaker 13: I saw it.
Speaker 2: What we're talking like nineteen eighty eighty five or something, Yeah, yep, something,
Speaker 2: And then I guess there's plenty of the action of
Speaker 2: the shark jumping out towards you. It been three D.
Speaker 13: Yeah, it was pretty good. Back in the day. That
Speaker 13: was when you had to wear or make your own
Speaker 13: glasses with the blue limbs and the red Lins as well.
Speaker 2: It was quite good, they market. Yeah, it was quite good.
Speaker 2: And then it came back about ten. Yeah, don't quite
Speaker 2: because even about ten years ago there was a huge
Speaker 2: thing about three D. It disappeared because Evatar was three D,
Speaker 2: wasn't it.
Speaker 16: Yeah?
Speaker 13: There was, and I think maybe even the Hobbit they
Speaker 13: did it their high refresher rate end three D or so.
Speaker 15: Maybe.
Speaker 2: So you saw the Jaws movies in reverse order? Did
Speaker 2: you start off with a terrible one then worked up
Speaker 2: for the epic one?
Speaker 12: Yeah?
Speaker 13: Probably a bit like Star Wars.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I will. Star Wars is different all together, Steve,
Speaker 2: Thank you? When do you start off with number four?
Speaker 8: Is that right?
Speaker 2: Pleased? I've left the Star Wars behind. I did a
Speaker 2: job for the kids. We watched them all a number
Speaker 2: of times, but you don't miss them. They never really
Speaker 2: grabbed me. Don't know why. I think in the in
Speaker 2: the end, the whole Star Wars universe became too complicated,
Speaker 2: too different characters and different things. Although I like the
Speaker 2: last one actually surprisingly enough, Rise of Skywalker thought that
Speaker 2: was good. I'll go see any when they come out
Speaker 2: of the cinema. I think these cinema things, it's where
Speaker 2: you've got to see them. Dave Marcus, welcome.
Speaker 21: Macus.
Speaker 22: Can you hear me?
Speaker 2: Okay, yes, well, thank you, thanks for asking. Yes, well,
Speaker 2: thank you.
Speaker 19: Hey.
Speaker 9: I really enjoyed showing that too.
Speaker 21: Yeah.
Speaker 9: So I've just caught the tail. I'm just setting minute
Speaker 9: ago the leave the topic, George. It's just reminded me
Speaker 9: a great movie, really good book too. I can't remember
Speaker 9: the name of the ride, but he's written some other
Speaker 9: quite there's another great book he wrote which is all similar.
Speaker 9: It's not a shark, it's kind of like an octopus thing,
Speaker 9: and it's about this couple and it's that's another great route.
Speaker 9: It might be called The Beast or something like that.
Speaker 9: It's a really good book too. But I'm just just
Speaker 9: a I don't think because it's something that I saw again.
Speaker 9: I saw years ago, and then I saw it again.
Speaker 9: It came up with my my news feed on my
Speaker 9: on my Facebook, and it was about because you recall
Speaker 9: Richard Drefus.
Speaker 21: You know he was he was the guy on the boat.
Speaker 9: In the movie with Richard Dravia and I can't think
Speaker 9: of the actor's name, but he's a he's a famous
Speaker 9: famous British actor someone Sure. He was this He played
Speaker 9: the part of the Nailei old skipper.
Speaker 21: Yeah.
Speaker 9: So apparently those two had what you what you called
Speaker 9: bad chemistry going on from the get go, which really
Speaker 9: helped these scenes. And it was just to the sort
Speaker 9: of it was to the extent where they couldn't be
Speaker 9: together without people being around them unless you know, when
Speaker 9: they weren't playing their role. And I think a story
Speaker 9: is that Draaic has kind of swanned onto to the.
Speaker 5: Film set.
Speaker 9: And complained about having to be out on a boat
Speaker 9: and he shouldn't be there because he just had a
Speaker 9: couple of big films and he was a bit of
Speaker 9: a star, and he was containing about being in this
Speaker 9: stupid movie out on a boat in this very famous
Speaker 9: English I think it's someone Sure, someone on Oh took
Speaker 9: an instant dislike to him, so just really really gave
Speaker 9: him a hard time the entire.
Speaker 2: Robert Sure, Robert s, Yeah, I thought you thought Grayfuss
Speaker 2: was arrogant and sort of above the station. I think,
Speaker 2: but I reckon it made the movie what it was
Speaker 2: the fact that they were so so sort of you know,
Speaker 2: there was so much hatred.
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, well gave it that great tension, you know,
Speaker 9: but like Lingwood Mac, Yeah, that's right. And and also
Speaker 9: and of course that that that movie. You know, there's
Speaker 9: there's scenes from movies like Lawrence of Arabia and it's
Speaker 9: you know, certain scenes from movies. And of course Robert
Speaker 9: Shaw's little story that he tells, you know, him and
Speaker 9: his mates by the bombing and the Second World War
Speaker 9: on that ship and then they all float around in
Speaker 9: the water and then the sharks came. That scene, is
Speaker 9: you know that that that's that's often quoted as one
Speaker 9: of the one of the greatest acting pieces in any movie.
Speaker 9: And it really is, you know, whether you're on the
Speaker 9: fence about the wholehighlight shark context or not that bad
Speaker 9: is it? Because I've gone back and watched that scene
Speaker 9: again and it's it's fantastic as acting and that really
Speaker 9: is just bang on steals the show with that scene.
Speaker 2: I think, as I say, Dave, I haven't seen it.
Speaker 16: Oh my god.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So I started off tonight's show by saying, look, it's
Speaker 2: fifty years undetermined to right the wrongs. Where will I
Speaker 2: watch it? And anyway we've ended we've ended up just
Speaker 2: talking about it tonight anyway. So so I'd like to
Speaker 2: watch some of those documentaries about the making of it,
Speaker 2: because the whole thing, I mean, it seems absolutely fascinating.
Speaker 9: You know, there's so much going on because of course Spielberg.
Speaker 9: I think that was was that was that was.
Speaker 6: I think that was it was.
Speaker 10: It was.
Speaker 2: It done duel in a couple of minor ones, but
Speaker 2: this was as big as he was only twenty nine
Speaker 2: as a young guy.
Speaker 9: Yeah yeah, I mean you watch it as well. I
Speaker 9: actually I watch sport of but yeah, yeah, well, well
Speaker 9: you'll enjoying it.
Speaker 21: That's one thing.
Speaker 9: Else one and another thing. I'd encourage you to because
Speaker 9: it's reminding me of I think I ard you one
Speaker 9: night say you don't we and have never worn gendles.
Speaker 9: I encourage you to do the driving the word right now.
Speaker 2: I might we Gendles and watch Jaws. Dave make a
Speaker 2: real Sunday.
Speaker 9: Yeah, tack too often the same night.
Speaker 2: Brilliant, You're good on your day. Thanks for calling me
Speaker 2: out on my stupidity. Fancy that there's been a bed
Speaker 2: of honor. How ridiculous six to nine never worn gendals.
Speaker 2: It's good what people remember. Oh yeah, lust, he doesn't
Speaker 2: mean Jennal's an idiot. That's what you want to get
Speaker 2: people going around about. I was seventeen when Jaws came
Speaker 2: out and I was traumatized about going in the water.
Speaker 24: For years.
Speaker 2: I was met on She used to go out from
Speaker 2: Carlo karabaita fish and the whole Eccre Gulf. I'veter seen
Speaker 2: the movie. They're seized off for a couple of summers,
Speaker 2: not because I was nervous, but also my boyfriend and
Speaker 2: his three brothers. The dad music is embedded my memory
Speaker 2: even now I go for a paddle. There are really
Speaker 2: scary moments and at tension throughout the movie. Beatty gives
Speaker 2: you a breather, relentless terror and unforgettable. He also did
Speaker 2: Peter Benchley, the author also did The Deep, which was
Speaker 2: quite a good film. But I saw that one that
Speaker 2: was all sort of about black magic and stuff. I
Speaker 2: think in the Caribbean. Pretty good film actually, The Deep.
Speaker 2: I don't know if Spielboo did that, but it was
Speaker 2: eventually written one Marcus im in Beard listening and every
Speaker 2: time they mentioned Sharp from Jaws, I visualized it and said,
Speaker 2: jumping out to get me Lowell now after to get
Speaker 2: up and have a coffee. Well, coffee is the last
Speaker 2: thing you need, Marcus. The most chilling part of Jaws
Speaker 2: is Quince's monologue about the sinking of the US is
Speaker 2: Indianapolis when they were torpedo in World War Two. Sharks
Speaker 2: talk about thrown and sailors over a few days as
Speaker 2: they waited for rescue. Quince's monologue terrifying, Marcus. If you
Speaker 2: watched Jaws backwards, it's actually beautiful stew about a shark
Speaker 2: that cruises the world oceanslating limbs to those in need.
Speaker 2: See Dan thought that was funny, Marcus. We just spoke,
Speaker 2: but you mentioned the movie duelas totally drawn to that
Speaker 2: movie on the edge of my seat, whilst my friend
Speaker 2: who sat beside me was bull witness. Never realized it
Speaker 2: was a Spielberg movie, Jewels, I'd like to see it
Speaker 2: in the theater. Actually, I reckockon. They should be putting
Speaker 2: on a fifty year anniversary for those that haven't seen it,
Speaker 2: including myself. Wasn't it biggest city? I'd organized something? I
Speaker 2: suppose I still could, but I think the days of
Speaker 2: radio station is organizing movie screenings is probably a thing
Speaker 2: of the past. Praise the Lord, get in touch of
Speaker 2: your to talkethel twelve. It's all about Jaws. Dirdent dernent,
Speaker 2: dird it eight hundred and eighty to nine nine two
Speaker 2: text just back to the New World Fire at Victoria Park.
Speaker 2: A text has texted through and this is the point
Speaker 2: I thought of. They said they're suspicious that the New
Speaker 2: World Fire could well have been started by their red
Speaker 2: Hot specials. Quite good. Ah, so there we go. That's
Speaker 2: that one sorted. Marcus. I was nine. My parents took
Speaker 2: the family to Sea Jaws at the King's Theatre in Wellington,
Speaker 2: probably January seventy six. Have not been back in the
Speaker 2: ocean since. You think it was a very It was
Speaker 2: a very quiet summer that summer in America. I think
Speaker 2: on the beaches, everything in the ocean wants to either
Speaker 2: live inside you or itch you. As a child growing
Speaker 2: up in the eighties near Martha's Vineyard, the movie definitely
Speaker 2: felt all too real, terrifying. We're talking Jaws. I want
Speaker 2: to know all about it from your point of viewer
Speaker 2: experience of seeing it. How terrified you were, were you were,
Speaker 2: the name of the theater, what you had at halftime,
Speaker 2: because of course, once upon a time we did have
Speaker 2: half time at movies. A very good thing it was too.
Speaker 9: Was it a movie?
Speaker 25: The other day?
Speaker 2: Tiana had a half time and I thought that was
Speaker 2: quite good. So, yes, it's all about Jaws tonight. So
Speaker 2: let's be hearing your take on this one. Eight hundred
Speaker 2: and eighty ten eighty and nine to nine two to text.
Speaker 2: Loving the calls, love a bit of movie nostalgia. Also
Speaker 2: fifty years ago. I don't know when it came out,
Speaker 2: and you see them, that's not important. Tonight's the night
Speaker 2: we talk about it, and I'll be watching it on
Speaker 2: TV on Sunday. Be a good wine down from Matariki.
Speaker 2: Can't wait with commercial breaks? Even better? You do so
Speaker 2: much during the breaks. Gosh, what can I do now?
Speaker 2: Get the house cleaning done? Come on, Jaws, Jaws, Jaws,
Speaker 2: anything you want to talk about as far because it
Speaker 2: seems like a lot of you've got on information from
Speaker 2: it too. You might be one of those PEO want
Speaker 2: to convince to commit to. Have never seen it? Like
Speaker 2: that pussy lush? Oh like you have you seen it?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 2: You people love that, don't they? Six victims in the movie,
Speaker 2: including a dog, not that i'd know. After seeing Jaws
Speaker 2: at the Savory in christ Church, I wanted a bigger boat,
Speaker 2: Mike Chopper. Someone's texted to intermission and I use the
Speaker 2: wrong word, so I apologize, so I say interval. Kind
Speaker 2: of think why that's sen through that?
Speaker 7: Come on?
Speaker 8: Oh.
Speaker 2: According to Fire and Emergency Senior Manager Senior Officer Mike Neville,
Speaker 2: the fire Victoria Park has been extinguished and five fighters
Speaker 2: will remain there of have an ideal with any hot
Speaker 2: spots and ensure the perimeter of the side of secure.
Speaker 2: Nine crews sell at the site. This will reduced to five.
Speaker 2: They expect to hand the building back to the property
Speaker 2: owners in the morning. It's too soon to have an
Speaker 2: information about the fire investigation. No word on the Red
Speaker 2: Hot Specials getting touched. Marcus till twelve, eight hundred and
Speaker 2: eighty ten eighty all about the Jaws, the movie I
Speaker 2: haven't seen, and unlike some of the movies, I haven't
Speaker 2: seen this one. I am going to see Scouts on
Speaker 2: her fifty years on. I don't quite know when they're
Speaker 2: what they're doing in America. For it that we're doing something,
Speaker 2: no doubt. I think Trump will be a big fan
Speaker 2: of Joe. It's June twentieth, so we're quite timely for
Speaker 2: this last year Quentin Tarantino called Steven Spielberg's film possibly
Speaker 2: the greatest movie ever made. He was quick to wear
Speaker 2: it isn't the best film in terms of script, cinematography,
Speaker 2: are acting, but he was convinced of overall quality as
Speaker 2: a movie remains unmatched.
Speaker 11: Yep.
Speaker 2: Just that, and of course they had Golden It didn't
Speaker 2: get the Oscar for Bex's picture. That got that was
Speaker 2: One Fly Over the Cuckoo's Nest, which I have seen.
Speaker 2: But America is full of kind of articles and stuff
Speaker 2: talk about the fifty years on, so come on, that's
Speaker 2: what we are talking about tonight, eight hundred and eighty
Speaker 2: ten eighty nine too known to detext YEP. So the
Speaker 2: novel came out in seventy four, of the movie within
Speaker 2: seventy five. Pretty hard movie to make too a lot
Speaker 2: of time they'd be in the water and Spielberg had
Speaker 2: had some success with Duel and the Sugarland Express, but
Speaker 2: the mechanical Shark was a disaster. Someone said, one of
Speaker 2: the same effects now as the special effects are ancient. Well, well,
Speaker 2: the probably thing is the good thing is there aren't
Speaker 2: that many special effects because the Shark didn't work. Good
Speaker 2: evening Jansips Marcus welcome.
Speaker 18: Oh hi, I'm just sitting here. I'm reading something interesting. Anyhow,
Speaker 18: Jaws is on at twelve fifteen on Monday during the
Speaker 18: twenty third, and that's in the TV week that's in there.

Speaker 2: was it? Because it's on yes, Bravo. I think it's

Speaker 2: terrified one was. Keep the text coming through two people
Speaker 2: nine two nine two to text. Good response so far,
Speaker 2: Keep it going. The music score from John Williams absolutely
Speaker 2: amplified the suspense. Brilliant two notes and everyone knows the
Speaker 2: film Eliza. Thank you, Marcus. We used to stand up
Speaker 2: for God save the Queen before every movie. Cheers, fils goodness.
Speaker 2: Eighteen past nineteen and it's Marcus. Good evening and welcome.
Speaker 18: Oh hi Marcus.
Speaker 26: We live up the road actually not too far from
Speaker 26: the fire this afternoon and quite shocked in appalled because
Speaker 26: this is the second major fire that we've had. From
Speaker 26: our home on the second level, we could see the
Speaker 26: sky City Convention when it burned for three nights straight
Speaker 26: after a I think a welder left a guest torch
Speaker 26: ignited and the whole bitchermen on the or the waterproofing
Speaker 26: just went up in flames and it burned like a
Speaker 26: distant fire and we could see that from our window
Speaker 26: and it was scary. And today has been exactly the same.
Speaker 26: They have recently opened up the area and I've actually
Speaker 26: actually shop at the New World and quite shocked that
Speaker 26: this has happened. I know they were doing a redevelopment
Speaker 26: in the car park.
Speaker 22: I just don't know what it was.
Speaker 26: Yeah, so it has the news come out about what
Speaker 26: exactly started the fire or someone did.
Speaker 2: Say they thought it might be the red Hot specials.
Speaker 2: But I think they are being humorous. But you're probably
Speaker 2: not the mood for that.
Speaker 26: No, absolutely not, not when you're stret back it's shut
Speaker 26: down areas actually almost.
Speaker 2: Shannon, tell me a bit, a little bit about your anger.
Speaker 2: Who's it towards?
Speaker 15: I know it.
Speaker 26: I feel sadness over the loss of quite a building
Speaker 26: that was being rebuilt. I don't know what they were
Speaker 26: doing on the ground floor, but you know, it's already
Speaker 26: so congested through the inner city there, and then to
Speaker 26: have these awful fires and the liability the past just
Speaker 26: over small eras it frustrates.
Speaker 2: Me because another fire to take a long time to
Speaker 2: put out that three day one didn't it?
Speaker 16: Oh?
Speaker 26: Absolutely, And it's just frightening when you all. I can
Speaker 26: see up our window because we've got a second level,
Speaker 26: and all you can see is the spire in your
Speaker 26: in your window frame, and that's frightening.
Speaker 2: She had a nice to talk. Thank you. Twenty past nine, Maxing,
Speaker 2: it's Marcus. Good evening. Oh Maxine, that's Marcus good evening.
Speaker 10: Ah, hello, Marcus. I'm suffering you cold at the moment.

Speaker 2: I'm going to become a Jewels boar. Yes, oh, very
Speaker 2: very good.
Speaker 5: I saw it.
Speaker 10: Goodness me, I must have been was when it first
Speaker 10: came out and my brother and I were shipped off
Speaker 10: on the bus to get out of our mother's here
Speaker 10: and we would take ourselves off to the Century Picture
Speaker 10: Theater Indonedan and here was this Jaws movie.
Speaker 16: It was brilliant.
Speaker 10: It had all thoughts in it, It had wonderful family dynamics,
Speaker 10: it had caring of the community. You were really going
Speaker 10: to enjoy it, and there were certain aspects of it
Speaker 10: where you basically.
Speaker 9: Screamed, and I agree.
Speaker 2: Where were you?
Speaker 10: Where were you?
Speaker 2: Where were you? Bust from?
Speaker 10: I was brought up indonnedan.
Speaker 2: Okay, but yeah, okay, but you will okay. So you
Speaker 2: caught the bus from home to the city to watch it?
Speaker 2: Is that right?
Speaker 5: Yes, that's right.
Speaker 10: Yeah, to basically get out of mother's here.
Speaker 2: You know, it was fifty years ago today or in
Speaker 2: two days. Do you know how old you would have been?
Speaker 7: What have you been?
Speaker 2: Six or seven? Nine? Well, it's quite young to see it.
Speaker 10: Yes, it was, but a very very good movie. I
Speaker 10: sent the neighbor across the road from our spirit glamorous
Speaker 10: woman was reading the book because it was like a summer.
Speaker 5: The book to read, you know.
Speaker 17: And I remember viewing the.
Speaker 10: Cover of the book of Jaws coming up underneath.
Speaker 8: The south board.
Speaker 10: It was brilliant shot. And I know, I suppose we
Speaker 10: must go to the theater. Mum, we must go to
Speaker 10: the theater. Take money, go, get out of my hair.
Speaker 27: Wow, And off we went.
Speaker 10: To this movie, very very good movie. And the funny
Speaker 10: thing is, for months I wouldn't even slash the toilet.
Speaker 10: I was too frightened the chores would.
Speaker 27: Come up through the bottom.
Speaker 2: Goodness so fast. That was, you know, interesting, very interesting, Maxing,
Speaker 2: thank you for that. Twenty three past nine, we are
Speaker 2: talking Jaws and every iteration about that fifty years ago.
Speaker 2: It was on the June twenty it was released, and
Speaker 2: I think one hundred and fifty theaters across America. I
Speaker 2: imagine it would be somewhat later in New Zia. It
Speaker 2: might be three or four months later. Marcus. I watched
Speaker 2: Jaws the eighties of my parents' lounge was seven to eight.
Speaker 2: I still remember going to the toilet the ends and
Speaker 2: not being able to sit down, freaking out. The shark
Speaker 2: would cover the toilet, toying calls when I go. Even
Speaker 2: the old one foot pedling bull in the backyard was
Speaker 2: out of bounds. Had to rewatch years later to get over.
Speaker 2: It wasn't so scary then. So if New World Freeman's
Speaker 2: Bays are right off, where's the nearest New World and
Speaker 2: walking distance? Isn't there a new world in herne Bay? Marcus.
Speaker 2: I was listening to a podcast the other day on
Speaker 2: music and they are saying the two notes and the
Speaker 2: Jaws music are a semitone, a part which in music
Speaker 2: is known to create suspense, regardless of where on the
Speaker 2: instrument you play them, Marcus Taring infern I came out
Speaker 2: at the same time as Jaws. That was a scary
Speaker 2: fire movie. Well, I enjoyed Towering Inferno much Ley, I
Speaker 2: wasn't too scared for that anyway. Good evening, Jason, welcome.
Speaker 2: It's Marcus, sir.
Speaker 10: How are you good?
Speaker 2: Thank you?
Speaker 28: And the Jaws movie from a cinematography point of view,
Speaker 28: was quite roundbreaking, the way they did the course up shots,
Speaker 28: you know how the cand of zoom men. That's the
Speaker 28: first time that technique was ever used in mainstream cinema,
Speaker 28: and it's still like used a lot in my horror
Speaker 28: movies and stuff the family.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's quite groundbreaking, it seems.
Speaker 28: Yeah, yeah, just I just like, yeah, appreciate it.
Speaker 2: Appreciate that. Jason, Thank you. Twenty six past nine catches
Speaker 2: soon see your text through two people or your emails.
Speaker 2: Marcus at Newstalk zb dot co dot m Z. Marcus

Speaker 2: and Monday, I'm planning to see the new zombie movie
Speaker 2: twenty eight years later. Looks good. Oh the movie called

Speaker 2: the third film in the twenty eight Days Later franchise.
Speaker 2: It's three decades since the Rage virus escaped of Biological
Speaker 2: Weapons laboratory 's a documentary. Denny boyle upcoming post apocalyptic
Speaker 2: horror film sounds cheery, doesn't it? Get in touch? Keep
Speaker 2: those texts coming through. Two People eight hundred and eighty
Speaker 2: ten eighty and nine two nine two to text. The
Speaker 2: Italian Fair is not quite the same, is it? Marcus?
Speaker 2: I was a teenage judger working on after school hol
Speaker 2: job the Octagon Theater indneven when Jaws came out. We
Speaker 2: had to stay in the theater in those days and
Speaker 2: weren't allowed to leave to the film as over. I
Speaker 2: was petrified when Jaws came out of the water and attacked,
Speaker 2: and I couldn't look at the screen. Well, I think
Speaker 2: of the ashes must be terrifying for them stuck there
Speaker 2: watching it time after time. Oh eight hundred and eighty
Speaker 2: ten eighty All your stories duels related. For those haven't
Speaker 2: watched it. We had watched on Sunday on Bravo with ads.
Speaker 2: Did like it intimitional. Every ten minutes I.
Speaker 29: Saw Jaws when I was sort of fairly young and
Speaker 29: at the Saint James Theater in Auckland. I think it
Speaker 29: was I was in the balcony. I just fell off
Speaker 29: when Jaws the guy's ladling chum off the back of
Speaker 29: the boat and the shark comes up right behind him.
Speaker 29: I got such a friday. It just about fell off
Speaker 29: the balcony.
Speaker 2: Were you too young? It was about right for you, Tony.
Speaker 29: I think most of it was that was not that scary,
Speaker 29: but there were just a few kind of explosive, unexpected
Speaker 29: moments that kind of made the whole film, and it
Speaker 29: was it was pretty impressive for such a low tech era.
Speaker 29: But then they spoiled it a bit later by showing
Speaker 29: us the sort of gas canister that drove the shark
Speaker 29: and kind of ruined the whole thing because it was great.
Speaker 2: And of course when you would have seen that, there
Speaker 2: were no sportler alerts because people wouldn't get on the
Speaker 2: day and say, oh, you got to watch out for this, fright.
Speaker 2: I mean, it was all you didn't know what was
Speaker 2: going to happen.
Speaker 29: No, exactly, no, if you hadn't hadn't spoken to anyone
Speaker 29: else who saw it. I think I saw it quite
Speaker 29: early on in it's run, and yeah.
Speaker 2: Because it was quite this seemed to be I don't
Speaker 2: even know how you did hype in those days, but
Speaker 2: it was quite hype, wasn't it. There was a there
Speaker 2: was a frenzy for I don't even know how you
Speaker 2: did that.
Speaker 29: Yeah, I think it was on the back of the
Speaker 29: because it was on the back of the book as well,
Speaker 29: which had come out. And of course, you know, there's
Speaker 29: no decent Hollywood film that doesn't have a book.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah, it was.
Speaker 29: It was a pretty It was a pretty big issue,
Speaker 29: a pretty big sort of thing. And I guess movies
Speaker 29: were hyped a little bit more in those days than
Speaker 29: they are now, with the posters and the launchers and
Speaker 29: that sort of thing.
Speaker 2: Okay, good on, you tell you thank it to ten.
Speaker 2: My name is Marcus. Welcome eight hundred and eighty ten eighty.
Speaker 2: We are talking Jaws. When did you see it? Marcus?
Speaker 2: The presided VEGISEI two was the first part of the
Speaker 2: three scary ones for me. The town in Funty, then
Speaker 2: Jaws scarred me for life. Yes, I saw the Beside,
Speaker 2: then I saw the Infernover. Didn't go to Jaws. Don't
Speaker 2: know why just tapped out, didn't really appeal, didn't really
Speaker 2: appeal to me. No surprises there. But I'm gonna watch
Speaker 2: it on Sunday. I can't wait, and n should report back.
Speaker 2: It's gonna be hard for me seeing it fifty years
Speaker 2: later because I can't have all those conversations. I can't say, oh,
Speaker 2: I just saw this amazing movie. You might have heard
Speaker 2: of it, anything else you want to mention, good for
Speaker 2: your free cume through as far as special days, today
Speaker 2: it is apple strude all day. Out of all the
Speaker 2: desserts I've made, I think apple Strudle's probably one of
Speaker 2: them more enjoyable to make. In order to talk about
Speaker 2: the most delicious asert, but the one that's the most
Speaker 2: fun to make. We won't talk enough about what's fun
Speaker 2: to cook always quite like, what's that plum thing I made?
Speaker 2: Love making? That French name? Anyway that'll come to me?
Speaker 2: Enjoy baking? Yeah, twenty three away from ten, Alex, it's
Speaker 2: Marcus welcome?
Speaker 17: Is that Marcus?
Speaker 24: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Alex welcome?
Speaker 30: Yeah, thank you Marcus.
Speaker 17: On about nineteen seventy nine, my wife and I were
Speaker 17: doing a tour through I'm pretty sure it was Paramount
Speaker 17: and we were open, followed with many other people and
Speaker 17: we're quiet. They're going through all the studios, and one
Speaker 17: round we came to this corner and suddenly this massive
Speaker 17: shark came out. At this this massive shark came right.
Speaker 17: You've never heard so much screaming in your life. It
Speaker 17: was it just stopped short.
Speaker 16: Boy.
Speaker 17: It was so real that it was pretty scary.
Speaker 2: It was it was it the same one from the movie.
Speaker 2: Was Is that what it was?
Speaker 17: Well, I don't would that be Paramount was made that
Speaker 17: film Paramount?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know too much about the studio tours,
Speaker 2: but I guess it probably would have been.
Speaker 17: Yeah, Oh, you never heard so much screen of your life.
Speaker 17: I'm beating myself and I believe it or that.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Alex, Chris, it's Marcus welcome.
Speaker 31: Oh yes, hi Marcus. It's Chriss speaking. For years and
Speaker 31: years and years after seeing Jaws, I could never ever
Speaker 31: swim in the sea. And my husband was a fisherman
Speaker 31: and we were living at the beach, but all I
Speaker 31: could even do was pedal in the waves. And now
Speaker 31: I've tune seventy one and I've just moved to a beach.
Speaker 31: I never even think about Jewels, I swim in the
Speaker 31: sea in summertime.
Speaker 10: And yeah, but no, it left.
Speaker 32: It left a long term.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you wonder why you're really, Chris. You wonder
Speaker 2: why you went to see it. You must have known
Speaker 2: you'd be prone to getting terrified of it.
Speaker 31: No, this was way back when it first came out.
Speaker 15: Nobody had seen it.
Speaker 2: Oh so you didn't think it was going to be
Speaker 2: as bad as it was?
Speaker 31: No, nowhere it.
Speaker 15: Was nowhere near.
Speaker 32: I knew that it was.
Speaker 10: It was about a shark.
Speaker 31: But you, like other people are saying, when it rows
Speaker 31: up out of the water, everybody in the theater just screamed.
Speaker 2: Did it fect your husband?
Speaker 7: No?
Speaker 31: He thought I was being stupid, He said, for heaven's sake,
Speaker 31: you know, it's only a movie. I said, I know,
Speaker 31: but I can't get there music out of my head.
Speaker 31: It isn't it funny? Now I've moved and I live
Speaker 31: right beside the sea. In fact, it's right outside my house,
Speaker 31: and I don't even think about it, not to.
Speaker 2: Hear from Christin and what that indicates. Marcus call it
Speaker 2: and upper Hut the last night currently two degrees hitting downwards.
Speaker 2: Jim mcgrandad Jim for one one who know that we've
Speaker 2: turned the heater on in the garage for the cat. Marcus.
Speaker 2: My girlfriend I saw Jaws as sixteen year old, didn't
Speaker 2: find it scary and all. It was so ott clock
Speaker 2: with orange seventy do it spooks me to this day, Chris.
Speaker 2: We're talking Jaws, though not the other films. If you
Speaker 2: want to come through and talk about that people, it's
Speaker 2: fifty years It was released on Thursday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday Friday,
Speaker 2: Mataliki is the day. That was the day it was
Speaker 2: released to the States, So we're on topic. We're three
Speaker 2: days ahead. Marcus. I went to stay at my elder
Speaker 2: brother and sister in lawa are so scared, went home
Speaker 2: and didn't slept. Check the bath Worice movie I've seen,
Speaker 2: probably fifty years ago was The Exaucist. We are talking
Speaker 2: Jaws eight time. And there's a new Shark movie too,
Speaker 2: about a guy foreading live victims to sharks. Sounds terrible,
Speaker 2: so a sick purse would go see that. I'm getting
Speaker 2: touch at nineteen to ten. If you want to be
Speaker 2: a part of it, here till midnight, oh eight hundred
Speaker 2: and eighty ten, eighty good evening. Kimmit's Marcus.
Speaker 22: Welcome, are you I'm just driving home?
Speaker 2: Yes, draws terrified me.
Speaker 24: I don't like going in the water over my knees,
Speaker 24: but I love going to the beach. But what actually
Speaker 24: does terrify me? As have you seen the David Edinburgh
Speaker 24: doco with.
Speaker 15: Get the Seals?
Speaker 22: Sorry?
Speaker 2: Are you just cut out there a bit? Tell me more?
Speaker 24: Oh, oh, the David Edinburgh with the killer whales and
Speaker 24: the beach and they come up onto the shore and
Speaker 24: grab the seal.
Speaker 15: So now I'm afraid.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's amazing, isn't it.
Speaker 15: Yes, that is.
Speaker 21: That year Jaws.
Speaker 24: I mean I loved I loved it being by the beach, but.
Speaker 19: I hate going in the water.
Speaker 2: Do you regret seeing the movie?
Speaker 24: No, because I've watched it probably a dull a dozen
Speaker 24: times since. Still, but my poor children, like you know,
Speaker 24: the adults now that's growing up, like my younger sister
Speaker 24: seem and to this day, you know, she's not allowed
Speaker 24: and over a waist.
Speaker 2: You know, I'm kind of amazed that the whole movie
Speaker 2: has just passed me by all those years that you know,
Speaker 2: the originally I didn't step. I've never come across and
Speaker 2: as some sort of all night session or anything. It
Speaker 2: kind of surprised that it's passed me by. But anyway,
Speaker 2: I'm going to remedy that.
Speaker 24: Yeah, but the look out for the dayvid es for
Speaker 24: a one that's here.
Speaker 4: I can't believe that they do that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll keep an eye on that one. I thought
Speaker 2: you had about this. It's got a new Ocean documentary
Speaker 2: out too. It's amazing he's still alive, isn't it. Mind
Speaker 2: you are, Dick, Dick van dok must be just to
Speaker 2: be about one hundred. I felt slightly bad telling Shannon
Speaker 2: what caused the fires at New World. She didn't seem
Speaker 2: in the mood for laugh at all, did she. That
Speaker 2: was a miss That was a misstep. You do wonder
Speaker 2: about people that ring up and are furious about fires.
Speaker 2: I mean, where's your fury at that? These just happened,
Speaker 2: don't they. I kind of always thought that she was
Speaker 2: angry about how long the fires had gone on for.
Speaker 2: Oh well, I remember going to watch Jewels and Timid
Speaker 2: who I jumped at one scene and my contact lens
Speaker 2: fell out. After the movie, the boys wanted to go
Speaker 2: to the Caroline Bay Us girls were too scared. As
Speaker 2: far as Jaws goes, I wouldn't get my neighbors paraple
Speaker 2: in the dark Marcus. Back in the eighties when I
Speaker 2: was in primary school, it was quite scared. I think
Speaker 2: it was the simplicity of the times, the lek of
Speaker 2: technology and all that stuff, as the young ones having
Speaker 2: a repaced, fast paced life. I'm not talking you about
Speaker 2: Jewels that, Marcus. I grew up in an outer suburb
Speaker 2: of Melbourne. Jaws was the first movie I was allowed
Speaker 2: to see without my parents bracket strange choice. My friend
Speaker 2: and I were eleven years old and caught the train
Speaker 2: then tram. Mum made me learn the grid pattern of
Speaker 2: the CBD streets so i'd know when to get off
Speaker 2: the tram at Russell Street. The movie was terrifying, but
Speaker 2: we loved it. The entire audience reeled back in their
Speaker 2: seats and screamed when Jewels came out of the water.
Speaker 2: It didn't stop us swimming that summer. Carolyn, and of
Speaker 2: course too. The Aussies have very special relationship with sharks,
Speaker 2: don't they. I imagine there's probably more people get eaten
Speaker 2: by sharks Australian anywhere. It's pretty much I love hate thing,
Speaker 2: there isn't it. They love the sea but they don't
Speaker 2: love the sharks.
Speaker 1: Streaming live on iHeartRadio, This is Marcus, says Call eight.
Speaker 2: On Youth Talks' good evening, Sandy, this is Marcus. Welcome.
Speaker 33: Thank you Marcus. Hope you're having a wonderful evening.
Speaker 2: Yeah, good evening.
Speaker 8: Good.
Speaker 33: Let me tell you a few things about my experience
Speaker 33: with not only Jaws, but also great white sharks. So,
Speaker 33: my husband is an avid Jaws fan and I probably
Speaker 33: have watched the movie over about fifty times. Wow, And
Speaker 33: there are certain parts of the movie that still makes
Speaker 33: me jump even though I've seen it so many times. However,
Speaker 33: with my husband being such an avid shark fan, we've
Speaker 33: done a number of shark dive trips around the Neptune
Speaker 33: Islands in South Australia and also Stewie Island down there
Speaker 33: BYU So we've had a lot of experience with great
Speaker 33: white sharks and been out with Rodney Fox, who was
Speaker 33: attacked by a great white shark back in the seventies.
Speaker 33: And there's a really good story about him on the
Speaker 33: internet if you ever want to read it. But he's
Speaker 33: got a big research vessel. He takes trips out to
Speaker 33: the Neptune Islands, the South and the North Neptune Islands.
Speaker 33: He's a bottom diving cage where you can jump in
Speaker 33: and get down to the bottom of the ocean out there,
Speaker 33: and you can actually watch these beautiful sharks swimming from
Speaker 33: the top of the surface of the ocean down to
Speaker 33: the bottom. And they are the most graceful looking animals
Speaker 33: in the water when you see them.
Speaker 2: Was it the Jaws movie that got your husband into sharks?
Speaker 33: Yes, he watched it when he was seven. Wow, had
Speaker 33: the little T shirt to wear and everything.
Speaker 2: Did you do the cage diving in Fobo Straits?
Speaker 6: That what you did?
Speaker 2: Yes, we went out with Mike and you saw.
Speaker 33: Them, Yes, the sharks, and straight there they are, or
Speaker 33: actually out towards Stewey Island. They are the most aggressive
Speaker 33: sharks I think that I've seen around the top cage.
Speaker 33: They are a little bit more boisterous, let's say, when
Speaker 33: they go to comeing towards the cage. That it's generally
Speaker 33: the smaller male sharks that, let's say, arc up a
Speaker 33: little bit more. But we were out one day with
Speaker 33: another dive company and we'd run out of throw baits
Speaker 33: and we threw out a yellow piece of boogie board
Speaker 33: right off the back of the boat, and I've got
Speaker 33: a fantastic photo of just after the shark had taken
Speaker 33: the booby board and left a beautiful circle in the
Speaker 33: middle of the water. But yeah, no, and they are
Speaker 33: amazing creatures. They're not really very interested in us as such,
Speaker 33: but yeah, they're an amazing creature. I could highly recommend
Speaker 33: anybody that has a passion for any form of sharks
Speaker 33: to get in touch with the Ruddy Fox Shark Expeditions
Speaker 33: out of Australia. It's well worth it.
Speaker 2: What's your next trip planned for.
Speaker 33: Are probably, I would say it back to Adelaide to
Speaker 33: go out again out there?
Speaker 2: Goodness m And that's just the Nptrid Islands that just
Speaker 2: south of Adelaide. Is that where they are?
Speaker 33: They're about forty five I think it's about forty five
Speaker 33: nautical biles of the coast of South Australia here.
Speaker 2: And what's the set up? What happen in that one? Okay?
Speaker 33: So you go out and you fly from Adelaide up
Speaker 33: to Port Lincoln where you join the boat the Princess
Speaker 33: the Princess too and you spend either four or five
Speaker 33: nights on the boat out at the Neptune islands and
Speaker 33: the shark diving.
Speaker 2: In a cage.
Speaker 10: In a cage.
Speaker 33: Definitely in a cage.
Speaker 2: And did you say the cage goes to the ocean floor?
Speaker 2: Did you say that?
Speaker 33: Yep, they have got the only ocean floor diving set
Speaker 33: up in this part of the world. I'm not sure
Speaker 33: whether or not they do it in South Africa anymore.
Speaker 33: You know that orcas kill great whites, right, yep. Yeah,
Speaker 33: so most of the big great white sharks in South
Speaker 33: Africa have been evacuated by orcas, so they have disappeared.
Speaker 2: I think they also did. They also did shark diving
Speaker 2: in Ekapolko, but someone got eaten I think, and they
Speaker 2: stopped that.
Speaker 32: Ah.
Speaker 33: Yeah, there's Guadaloupe.
Speaker 22: Yep.
Speaker 33: They do quite a lot of shark week filming over
Speaker 33: in Guadaloupe. See it, it's been cut right back.
Speaker 2: Well, there we go. Okay, standy, thank you, six away
Speaker 2: from ten. My name's Marcus Wilk. If you want a text,
Speaker 2: see you a lot. There we go, husband, well into sharks.
Speaker 2: Eh goodness, anyone called it Stewie Island, But there we go.
Speaker 2: Never Marcus, I'm on the boys trip the Caple going
Speaker 2: out to the Ranfredy Bank at father m to hunt
Speaker 2: for bluefin tuna. My mates are all snoring, so I'm
Speaker 2: listening to your show. We may see some sharks out there.
Speaker 2: Jaws movie is great. A trial for bikes on Auckland
Speaker 2: buses seriously on the trains year good, but buses. Why
Speaker 2: bloody dogs now bloody bikes. I think the whole point
Speaker 2: of that is because you can't bike over the Harbor Bridge,
Speaker 2: So it makes the whole cycling in the city kind
Speaker 2: of null and void because you can't get where you
Speaker 2: want to get because you can't go on the Harbor Bridge,
Speaker 2: which is crazy that they never worked out for that.
Speaker 2: Thanks Darren for that too. Yes, I was thinking about that.
Speaker 2: What a disgrace feeding a polysterring bugging board to a
Speaker 2: great white. They need their concession canceled. I didn't want
Speaker 2: to say anything, but I thought that sounded to me
Speaker 2: to be extraordinarily stupid. And what for for kicks really stupis? Oh, well,
Speaker 2: each to their own. I guess the fact that you
Speaker 2: were so free with the story she saw nothing wrong
Speaker 2: with doing it. But yeah, thanks Murray Terriot's Marcus welcome.
Speaker 23: Yeah, hi Marcus. Yeah, I think Stephen Stielder was a
Speaker 23: bit put out because he wasn't not expected to be
Speaker 23: nominated in the director's category, but he wasn't so and
Speaker 23: it was up against like you say, one two over
Speaker 23: the Cookoo's Nest, but burn a field two of the editor.
Speaker 2: She won.
Speaker 15: And he never employed her again, so he probably little
Speaker 15: bit out of spite. No, no, wow, she never worked
Speaker 15: again for him.
Speaker 5: Side.
Speaker 23: I don't know she but she won, yeah, for editing.
Speaker 23: But I got a real shock. Robert Shaw, who played
Speaker 23: quint he died only three years later. I've got a
Speaker 23: really real shock when he does, because it.
Speaker 6: Wasn't that old.
Speaker 23: And his son Ian does a play called The Shark
Speaker 23: Is Broken. He plays his father in this stage play,
Speaker 23: which is I think it's been one of Edinburgh Fringe
Speaker 23: Award and he plays his father and our actives play
Speaker 23: Roy Scheider and Richard Dreyfus parts. So Richard Dreyfus is
Speaker 23: the only one who's still living of the three.
Speaker 15: But it was a brilliant movie. It stands a test
Speaker 15: of time, you know.
Speaker 7: So could just.
Speaker 2: Explain to me Terry. For those of us are not
Speaker 2: familiar with I presume Richard Drayfus is the boat's captain
Speaker 2: and nal kind of a seaman, that's correct. But what's
Speaker 2: Quentin's role?
Speaker 23: Hooper? Yeah, Quinn he is he had the the boat
Speaker 23: that that that went out to catch the shark.
Speaker 2: So so what was Drafus's role then, Hooper, Yeah, explain
Speaker 2: what the role was.
Speaker 15: He was, you know, the oceanographer okay, and sharks yeah.
Speaker 2: Okay, he's a shark expert. Okay. The other one was
Speaker 2: the skipper. That makes sense, yep, yep.
Speaker 23: So but they all played their parts really well, and
Speaker 23: I think that was part of the success, you know.
Speaker 23: And Ray Shaded went made Jaws too, but the others
Speaker 23: stayed away from the sequels, you know, but I think, yeah,
Speaker 23: I thought, I mean, yeah, it was a scary movie,
Speaker 23: you know.
Speaker 15: So, and it was brilliant. The script was good.
Speaker 23: And the Benchley, the guy who wrote the book, he
Speaker 23: was had the easy played the guy on the stand
Speaker 23: who was played a reporter. He was dressed in a
Speaker 23: suit on the beach when he was So that was
Speaker 23: Peter Benchley. He just had a scene in that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, did you see Terry? Were you Truman? Did you
Speaker 2: see it? As a child?
Speaker 23: Fifteen years get to the beach and deaf and port
Speaker 23: Ye have a friend when in the water thought, oh
Speaker 23: my god, maybe this's just year this sort of put
Speaker 23: the TV GBS into it. But you know, it's it's
Speaker 23: pretty I mean, that's the power of movie making.
Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm looking for I mean looking
Speaker 2: more and more forward to seeing it. Terry, so thank you,
Speaker 2: and for those that don't know, it's not a film
Speaker 2: I've seen, but not through any reason apart from I
Speaker 2: didn't really want to see it as a child and
Speaker 2: haven't cover across as an adult, which is surprising. It's
Speaker 2: one of those movies you can always you know, you
Speaker 2: almost said that you've seen so many scenes of it.
Speaker 2: I can actually, you know, I'm looking forward to how
Speaker 2: it all gets strung together. Actually, we are celebrating our
Speaker 2: fiftieth Like Jaws nineteen seventy five, the boys are still
Speaker 2: storing in the bunk room. Jaws will be so dated
Speaker 2: and corny. Now, well, I think the script and the
Speaker 2: acting is pretty good. However, I'm of the opinion no
Speaker 2: Shark movie documentary should be shot on TV within three
Speaker 2: months before summer. It ruins my ocean swimming and snorkeling regards. Owen.
Speaker 2: Of course, you could choose not to watch it. My
Speaker 2: late mum always told us how it was Jaws that
Speaker 2: scared her away from the ocean. Only found out when
Speaker 2: the school trip to Kelly Toalmes ended in her having
Speaker 2: a panic attack as the parent help. Oh yeah, not
Speaker 2: good for the parent. Help. I get in touch if
Speaker 2: you want to talk. It's eighteen past ten. Welcome on him,
Speaker 2: as Marcus. It's the movie Jaws, fifty years ago this
Speaker 2: week in the States.
Speaker 30: I don't know.
Speaker 2: It's just going to tell you.
Speaker 34: Uh.
Speaker 2: Someone said all the smeg stickers it knew, well, possibly
Speaker 2: would have burned. That's right. That could affect the smell giveaway,
Speaker 2: couldn't it. We're trying to find out the Jaws screening
Speaker 2: date New Zealand. Someone will know. I'll tell you what
Speaker 2: doesn't know. That's chet GPT New Zealand. I said it
Speaker 2: was October seventh of the ninth. Oh that's twenty twenty, stupid.
Speaker 2: So I'm looking out when it was released. Well, there
Speaker 2: we go, the Gavette Brewsters having a fiftieth anniversary screening.
Speaker 2: Good on them, they're sensible. I will keep looking, Michelle.
Speaker 2: It's Marcus. Welcome.
Speaker 32: I guess I was almost ten.
Speaker 25: I think when Mum and dad took me to Jaws.
Speaker 25: I don't really remember the movie, to be honest. I
Speaker 25: know I liked it and I probably jumped when the
Speaker 25: shark came out of the water. But the notable thing
Speaker 25: was we went to the Saint James on Queen Street
Speaker 25: and Auckland, and I think it was the season. Immediately
Speaker 25: for us, a man dropped out of a heart attack.
Speaker 2: Wow, that's exciting, you know.
Speaker 25: I think we read about it or heard it on
Speaker 25: the news the next day, and I think, like everyone
Speaker 25: a little bit after that, I didn't really want to
Speaker 25: go through it at the beach, but the thing was
Speaker 25: to always make sure you were the last one out,
Speaker 25: so if there was a shock, someone else would get
Speaker 25: eaten first.
Speaker 2: I imagine it would call into question your parents judgment
Speaker 2: for taking a ten year old to the movie. But
Speaker 2: that was just then, was it.
Speaker 32: But yeah, no, it wasn't.
Speaker 10: We didn't.
Speaker 25: There was no great discussion of oh look you're too young,
Speaker 25: Togo or anything so and I wasn't disturbed by it,
Speaker 25: or I wasn't a sort of child who was, you know,
Speaker 25: like timid. I think if you were, you wouldn't.
Speaker 2: Were you like a movie going family, you'd often go
Speaker 2: to movies as a family. Yes, okay, yeah, Well.
Speaker 25: Years later as an adult, I remember going down to
Speaker 25: the Beats at Brown's Faith and I decided to go
Speaker 25: for a swim at night, and I'd parked my car
Speaker 25: on the boat ramp with the lights going out, and
Speaker 25: I can remember going out there thinking, Oh, this is
Speaker 25: just too freaky.
Speaker 35: It's just completely black.
Speaker 25: I can't see anything behind me, And I think I
Speaker 25: stayed in for all of about five minutes and then
Speaker 25: dumped out again.
Speaker 2: Yeah, having not seen the movie, I presume there was
Speaker 2: some shark attacks some people knowned swimming at night?
Speaker 11: Is that right?
Speaker 32: I only remember the daytime attacks.
Speaker 2: Okay, but yeah, nighttime is classic. How did you know
Speaker 2: someone had died in the screening before? Were there ambulances
Speaker 2: the stuff there or was it just everyone talking about that?
Speaker 22: No, we heard it on the news.
Speaker 8: Wow.
Speaker 25: So when we got there, and that was in the
Speaker 25: days when you know you'd have there was a two
Speaker 25: o'clock seasion, a five o'clock session, and at eight o'clock,
Speaker 25: and so I'm pretty sure it was the session immediately
Speaker 25: before us, and so I don't know if it had
Speaker 25: happened early in the movie, but there were no signs
Speaker 25: of ambulances or anything.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, it's an interesting point. It was always the
Speaker 2: movies eleven two five, and what did they change that?
Speaker 2: Now all the show I enjoyed the regularity of that,
Speaker 2: go to a five o'clock catch at eight o'clock. Goodness,
Speaker 2: it's all become sor But ho hum, movies these days,
Speaker 2: has it? Although I know the kids have gone plenty
Speaker 2: of movies they haven't bothered going to because they's just
Speaker 2: kind of not been myice. What was the last one
Speaker 2: they went to? Lilo and Stitch was something before that.
Speaker 2: I can't remember. He might have been Minecraft, by the way.
Speaker 2: Watched the Robot one the other day on TV. Thought
Speaker 2: that was quite good with the robot on the island.
Speaker 2: The animation, well, that's quite fun. I sort of we'd
Speaker 2: read the book, and the book took a bit of
Speaker 2: getting into. Actually I knew there was something to it.
Speaker 2: But the movie is good. I think it might be
Speaker 2: called Iro, but I'm not entirely sure. Something like that.
Speaker 2: Just have watched on TV. Watched it with the kids
Speaker 2: the other day. Sort of animated movie, but quite different text.
Speaker 2: If you've got them, it's all about Jaws. Evening Ben
Speaker 2: this is Marcus.
Speaker 22: Welcome, hey, market towns and hangs and all right, good
Speaker 22: have you been? Everybody a laugh when you're talking about Jaws?
Speaker 22: I think I've got that last. I was about ten
Speaker 22: years old and we took the family Carl who was
Speaker 22: a dats in two sixty c from them the Tago
Speaker 22: back up to the Naden and and we went and
Speaker 22: went watch a show. It was called the Food Tube.
Speaker 22: It was the family Show. We got there and there
Speaker 22: was some bloody walk around the stage pop withs. I remember.
Speaker 22: The old man just grabbed me, so you can't be
Speaker 22: watching that, and he dragged me out, and we've done
Speaker 22: and picked a teather down the road and we walked
Speaker 22: in and it was a it was a movie called Jaws.
Speaker 22: I was ten years old.
Speaker 6: We walked straight in there.
Speaker 22: And yeah, I've never looked the water ever since. The
Speaker 22: same a Markers freak you out? Yeah did it?
Speaker 6: She did?
Speaker 22: And it was like that. I didn't move the Damien.
Speaker 22: I think it was about twelve. I did in when
Speaker 22: I watched it. Remember the triple sixth boy year whatever
Speaker 22: it was, Damiens.
Speaker 2: What was the stage show your parents took you too?
Speaker 22: It was it was called the boob tube.
Speaker 2: The boob tube.
Speaker 22: Yeah, it was some sort of I don't know. It
Speaker 22: was in't the Need, and it was like a production play.
Speaker 22: And right at the start we all sitting there and
Speaker 22: that because I had three sisters and one brother and
Speaker 22: mom and dad, We're all sitting there. And next it starts,
Speaker 22: and the light go down and it's part here and
Speaker 22: it's gone, and this lady just starts worn across the
Speaker 22: across the stage, pop goodness.
Speaker 6: And I remember thinking, oh, I don't.
Speaker 2: Know what was called the boom tube. You wonder what
Speaker 2: your parents were expecting.
Speaker 22: Well it was it was the paper. Apparently it is
Speaker 22: meant to be, like, I don't know, some sort of play,
Speaker 22: and yeah, it turned out to be a web bit risque.
Speaker 2: Have you eats your fear of the water been diluted
Speaker 2: over time?
Speaker 22: Well, no, I remember going across my brother LAWI used
Speaker 22: to live on Durgle Island and we went across from
Speaker 22: a little rowboat or a clinker as they call it.
Speaker 22: He used to go back and forth from school from
Speaker 22: from Durgal Island to the mainland, just right at French
Speaker 22: Pass on the north side of it. He knew where
Speaker 22: the where the coach through the general stick because he's
Speaker 22: will force and all sorts. We're going through the little clinker.
Speaker 22: One day he was rolling and I just sit on
Speaker 22: the back of it, and this Barco shark went past it.
Speaker 22: It was probably about three times as file as after
Speaker 22: the fin was. I was sitting down.
Speaker 6: The sin was buller than.
Speaker 22: Me, and I was just like, let's go, mate, let's go,
Speaker 22: Let's get the.
Speaker 5: Heck out of here.
Speaker 22: All right, this is not cool, but yeah, yeah, that's
Speaker 22: I remember that Marco looking it was one passed. He
Speaker 22: looked at me with his eye, he was looking up.
Speaker 22: He just swim past, and I was like, oh, this
Speaker 22: is not cool, but yeah, chores when you're young like that,
Speaker 22: that was just yeah, you're absolutely.
Speaker 2: I'll see what I can find about that, play Ben,
Speaker 2: But thank you. The boob chup. Never heard of it.
Speaker 2: Keep your calls coming through Angel Texts. Two people. Nine
Speaker 2: to nine too was the text number. I'm still trying
Speaker 2: to find an opening date for Jaws in New Zealand.
Speaker 2: It was the twentieth of June in the United States
Speaker 2: nineteen seventy five. Someone says, did he have any fear
Speaker 2: of boobs as well? Good question, which I thought of
Speaker 2: that Rod and Valerie Taylor, Australians, provide a lot of
Speaker 2: the underwater live shark footage following the movie. They dedicated
Speaker 2: their lives to conservations, to the backlash against sharks, especially
Speaker 2: the Great White. I'm getting bombarded with shark frogram adverts
Speaker 2: on TV. We're not expecting the Marcus. While my three
Speaker 2: months before summer band was tongue in cheek. Recent shark
Speaker 2: images do make one jumpy if something strikes one's flipper.
Speaker 2: My big buffhead dog Barney swam out behind us and
Speaker 2: gave us heart failure when he swam up into us
Speaker 2: from behind, and we inhaled so much. Would have laughing
Speaker 2: for us all because it was difficult to carry on.
Speaker 2: Born nineteen seventy seven, Third child movies of note, Jaws,
Speaker 2: Alien Nightmare on Albastick Cocone, Unbeatable. Unbeatable is not a movie.
Speaker 2: That's an adjective.
Speaker 29: You're calling a bend there. Marcus was talking about the movie.
Speaker 29: He said it was Dami and it was called The Omen,
Speaker 29: and that movie made me dead scared of rot wilder dogs.
Speaker 2: I've never seen that terrible, terrible, I've never seen terrible.
Speaker 29: I was well freaked out. By those things.
Speaker 2: I don't even know they existed before that, did they?
Speaker 24: Right?
Speaker 29: Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I don't think I've ever seen one
Speaker 29: in New Zealand. And I've heard of Doberman's but never
Speaker 29: rot whalers.
Speaker 2: And I've always known, well, maybe I thought they were
Speaker 2: what they would have been, Doberman's ros. Weren't they.
Speaker 29: Yeah, I've always been very wary of rot whalers ever since.
Speaker 2: What good reason? Okay, Tony, thank you for that. Twenty
Speaker 2: nine to eleven. Jennet's Marcus welcome, good evening, Oh Markaire,
Speaker 2: good Jenny, it's good. Well.
Speaker 36: We had an account with the real Jaws. Oh god,
Speaker 36: back in the nineties. We're oven America, and we went
Speaker 36: to Universal Studios and we jumped aboard the little train
Speaker 36: thing on wheels that takes around on the movie sets,
Speaker 36: and we came along as along to this little lake
Speaker 36: and they said, oh, this is a lake where Jaws
Speaker 36: was filmed, and maybe one was all looking out the
Speaker 36: window and next thing, this nonstrous shark come flying out
Speaker 36: of the water towards the vehicle. Everyone just about shat
Speaker 36: themselves and all screaming, and yeah, well.
Speaker 2: That sounds quite clear how that works, because you're not
Speaker 2: expecting it obviously.
Speaker 26: Well, no, and the and the.
Speaker 36: Lake was quite small, and they said that that was
Speaker 36: where the whole thing was filmed. And when when you
Speaker 36: saw the film and it saw on this you think
Speaker 36: it's in this big ocean, but it's actually only on
Speaker 36: a small lake.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that. Yea, I think a lot. I
Speaker 2: don't know where the whole I think a lot of
Speaker 2: it was filmed out. I'll look into that, but Genny,
Speaker 2: thank you for that. Patrick, it's Marcus. Welcome, Mike.
Speaker 7: How are you mate?
Speaker 15: Good?
Speaker 2: Patrick? God good, goody good, good good.
Speaker 7: You're wanting to know when Jaws was released in New Zealand.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and where would you look? I find that out?
Speaker 7: Well, I just remember it because I actually went and
Speaker 7: saw it, and it was it was during the Christmas
Speaker 7: school holidays of seventy five seventy six. I would have
Speaker 7: seen it very early seventy six, and I'm pretty sure
Speaker 7: it was a Saint James thea fre in Auckland. And
Speaker 7: we parked the car up the top of Queen Street
Speaker 7: and walked down my friends and their family and they
Speaker 7: were building the civic car park at the time, and
Speaker 7: we looked over the fence and looked into this great
Speaker 7: big hole that went way way down into the ground.
Speaker 7: So the things. So, yeah, that's what I remember it. Say, Yeah,
Speaker 7: January seventy five to seventy six. I would say that
Speaker 7: probably the first or second week of January. Where did
Speaker 7: you Where did you park up the top of Queen Street?
Speaker 2: Where did you drive? Where did you drive in? From Patrick,
Speaker 2: South Auckland. Yeah, I'm lucking the story. Big family out there.
Speaker 7: And years I say it was. It was quite scary
Speaker 7: for a fifteen year old kids.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well there were a lot of kids a lot
Speaker 2: younger that went to it too, because the kids across
Speaker 2: the road must have been about seven and eight. I
Speaker 2: was surprised they went, but you know, I think their
Speaker 2: father took them to toughened them up. I thought it
Speaker 2: was a strange choice.
Speaker 7: It was actually good. I think it's been on telling
Speaker 7: a few times and I think if I remember OLLI
Speaker 7: scoring through the sky planner sort of thing, I think
Speaker 7: it's on in the next few day sort of thing.
Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, I think it's on Bravo on Sunday, Yeah,
Speaker 2: okay with the commercials and then the next day as well,
Speaker 2: so they must be they must be honoring the fact
Speaker 2: that it's a fifty year anniversary. So it seems that
Speaker 2: it's going to get quite a few outings. I don't
Speaker 2: know if they've done it. I don't think they've been
Speaker 2: a recut or a longer version, have they. There's never
Speaker 2: been a director's cut. It's always just been the movie,
Speaker 2: hasn't it correct?
Speaker 15: Yeah?
Speaker 7: Correct? Yeah, Yeah, I've seen them a couple of times.
Speaker 7: I say, seventy five, seventy six, but yeah, I think
Speaker 7: i've seen it on TV maybe once since.
Speaker 2: Yeah, didn't put you off the water?
Speaker 18: Oh?
Speaker 22: Yeah, did?
Speaker 7: I think it did initially? But yeah, Now I think
Speaker 7: as time goes on, you get a bit older, and yeah,
Speaker 7: like life goes on and you go in the water,
Speaker 7: I think, yeah, I just like.
Speaker 2: Your family mission. Driving into town and parking the topic.
Speaker 2: It seemed a long way away, but I guess that's
Speaker 2: the that's the reality in those days.
Speaker 10: One of them.
Speaker 5: Oh it was.
Speaker 7: Yeah, we just came along along the Southern Motorway and
Speaker 7: talk and found a found a parking spot where with
Speaker 7: a friend of mine and his parents and and I'm
Speaker 7: pretty sure it's the Saint James Theater. Yeah, it's during
Speaker 7: it's definitely during the Christmas school holidays. So ye're siventy
Speaker 7: five s and six there. I think it'd be pretty
Speaker 7: safe to assume.
Speaker 2: That you've got a good memory. Patrick.
Speaker 7: Thank you very much. Mark, it's good to talk to you,
Speaker 7: my friend.
Speaker 2: I talked to you too. Twenty five to eleven, I
Speaker 2: would say, is it text Marcus? I would say the
Speaker 2: irrational fear that Gen X and boomers have with Jaws
Speaker 2: as similar to the irrational fair millennials have with logging
Speaker 2: trucks driving in front of them due to the final
Speaker 2: destination movie. Blair texts, my mother went into labor with
Speaker 2: me while she was watching Jaws in seventy six at
Speaker 2: the cinema. It's been my favorite movie since childhood. Watch
Speaker 2: it every couple of years. Cheers, Blair Marcus. I was
Speaker 2: a total water baby. There's a teen seeing Jaws completely
Speaker 2: ruined deep water swimming, just putting their head underwater and
Speaker 2: seeing the murky green depths fading to the distance. Finally
Speaker 2: started surfing at twenty six and spent twenty six years
Speaker 2: surfing three early stormy days alone way out the back
Speaker 2: of waves until well after sunset, even into moonlight. So
Speaker 2: I guess I got over it. Did you have any
Speaker 2: fear of boobs as well? That's funny that text day,
Speaker 2: It's funny. Wild Robot was the film I was talking about.
Speaker 2: But the text of the night, The text of the
Speaker 2: night was I was trying to find it people, He's
Speaker 2: gonna find the text of the night. Suspicion is that
Speaker 2: the New World Fire was started by the Red Hot Specials.
Speaker 2: It is twenty to eleven. Good evening, Celerets, Marcus. Welcome, Oh, good.
Speaker 35: Evening, Marcus. I'm just listening to about the Jaws movie.
Speaker 35: I was an oper girl to the family that booked
Speaker 35: in New York, and they had a summer house on
Speaker 35: Martha's Vineyard.
Speaker 10: Wow.
Speaker 2: And that's where they That's where it was filmed, wasn't it.
Speaker 2: That's where they filmed it.
Speaker 32: Yeah, we were.
Speaker 35: We had We used to go down to the beach
Speaker 35: and snorkel and swim because it was summer. And then
Speaker 35: one night we went off to the movie theater and
Speaker 35: we saw Jaws, and of course a lot of the
Speaker 35: locals were the extras, and they all stood up and
Speaker 35: everyone cheered, and God when I got home from there,
Speaker 35: and I don't think I ever at the beach again.
Speaker 10: Wow.
Speaker 35: Apparently it was too cold. I think there to actually
Speaker 35: have sharks.
Speaker 5: So but yeah, it was.
Speaker 35: It was filmed there. And you know down where we were,
Speaker 35: we were living, you could see the places, you know,
Speaker 35: down by the wharf. So yeah, Martha's Vineyard off the coast.
Speaker 2: Of Yes, because what was up and I'm remembering now,
Speaker 2: that's what said the article I started us talking about
Speaker 2: talking about reading about the career and the f year
Speaker 2: was filmed at Matha's Vineyard.
Speaker 35: Yeah, a lot of a lot of the locals were
Speaker 35: in the in the film, and of course they were
Speaker 35: all there at the theater and everyone was cheering. But yeah,
Speaker 35: it was pretty pretty gary go on the water after that.
Speaker 2: Nice place, Martha's Vineyard, Yeah, oh there was.
Speaker 35: There was in the seventies way back. And yeah, we
Speaker 35: lived we actually lived next door to the Kennedy And
Speaker 35: I don't know who. I don't even know who the
Speaker 35: Kennedys were until some yacht past our house and park
Speaker 35: next door. And yeah, there's quite a lot of I
Speaker 35: think wealthy people and movie stars.
Speaker 14: The Taylor Oh yeah.
Speaker 2: There must have been quite that market family you were
Speaker 2: working for.
Speaker 35: Oh yeah, he was a developer, a Jewish fan, Jewish family,
Speaker 35: and we went to this place on Martha's vineyard, but
Speaker 35: place with the tennis court, and they had the people come.
Speaker 35: They had to have private beaches there, and they had
Speaker 35: a couple of guys come and they took all the
Speaker 35: stones off the beach so we could just have stands.
Speaker 35: But I mean, I I had to work because I
Speaker 35: was working for them. And it was a it was
Speaker 35: a it was a lovely place. But I mean the
Speaker 35: houses were beautiful. But you know, I just remember Jaws
Speaker 35: and was filmed on Martha's vineyards.
Speaker 2: And just to get me right, just to correct, Martha's
Speaker 2: Vineyard is an island, isn't it.
Speaker 32: Yes, it's off.
Speaker 35: Oh Boston or the Cape Cape Cape Cod. There's another
Speaker 35: island called Nantucket. And it was the bigger island marthas inion.
Speaker 35: I think a lot of people from New York and
Speaker 35: they go there for the summer.
Speaker 2: It's not a huge also, it's about five kilometers across.
Speaker 2: It's not messive, is it?
Speaker 35: But no, no, And it's got like a real Cape
Speaker 35: Cod like.
Speaker 27: Town.
Speaker 35: And you know, all the boats go fishing and people say,
Speaker 35: you know, sail over there and stopped there for the summer.
Speaker 2: Did you fly there? Did you fly there or go
Speaker 2: by Faery.
Speaker 35: No, just buy Faery, okay, because we lived in New York,
Speaker 35: just in Rye, New York. Yeah, and then we must
Speaker 35: I don't know, we must have traveled up somewhere and
Speaker 35: then they went across with the car. If I can remember, yeah,
Speaker 35: it was a while back, but yeah, that's where Jaws
Speaker 35: I remember.
Speaker 2: I'll remember that it put you off swimming for life
Speaker 2: to that silla.
Speaker 35: Yeah, kind of. I like swimming pools now, but.
Speaker 10: No funny.
Speaker 35: I never I really enjoyed the swimming with the snort
Speaker 35: cling and you could see little fish, But that that
Speaker 35: night stopped stopped all swimming.
Speaker 3: In the sea.
Speaker 35: From then onwards, I think I spuck to the swimming pool.
Speaker 2: That's a talk, So I thanks so much. Seventeen to
Speaker 2: eleven A text door says, I went to the Jaws
Speaker 2: movie in nineteen seventy six on a first date and
Speaker 2: have been with that person for coming up to forty
Speaker 2: four years married this year. Nice story. Maryland says, I'm
Speaker 2: enjoying as the the Peel's Memories of Jewels. I remember
Speaker 2: the aerie music in the film. Whenever I heard it
Speaker 2: gave me the creeps. I think it still does give
Speaker 2: people the creeps for a famous bit of music and
Speaker 2: you got to hit two bars. You know what it is.
Speaker 2: Don't even know if there was much else on the soundtrack.
Speaker 2: Get in touch you want to talk here till midnight
Speaker 2: twelve for midnight Hello Kendle. Sorry, twelve to eleven, Kendle.
Speaker 2: It's Marcus. Good evening, Hello Marcus.
Speaker 27: I'd like to tell you about a tale, a true
Speaker 27: tale about forty years ago, approximately seventy star from Foodstuff
Speaker 27: Swellington and some of them were grossers, went to California.
Speaker 27: One of the places we went to was one of
Speaker 27: those film studios now around. They had a lake there
Speaker 27: and they towed a little trailer around for a bus
Speaker 27: and a trailer, and in there we went alongside this lake,
Speaker 27: and the lake had a pier going out and it
Speaker 27: looked like a single toilet at the end. All of
Speaker 27: a sudden it blew up, and everybody looked over there
Speaker 27: to see what was going to happen. But in the
Speaker 27: meantime it was to take our mind off yours, who
Speaker 27: came into the shore right where we were. But everybody
Speaker 27: was looking at this action from the toilet, and we
Speaker 27: got a hallow of fright and I took Yes, I
Speaker 27: took a photo of it, but it was in fright.
Speaker 27: I had the camera in my lap and I've still
Speaker 27: got it today here.
Speaker 2: So anyway, what were there other special effects on that tour?
Speaker 2: Was it the only one?
Speaker 22: Oh?
Speaker 27: I know, there was things going here, there and everywhere.
Speaker 27: You know that the House of wax and went into
Speaker 27: a railway station, for instance, and a train came and
Speaker 27: alongside the platform that we were in the suttle cart,
Speaker 27: and all of a sudden there was an earthquake and
Speaker 27: the concrete all broke up, water pouring out of it
Speaker 27: and all the rest of it. You know, very realistic.
Speaker 2: No good on food stuff taking seventy people. Were you
Speaker 2: a grosser?
Speaker 27: No, I was in charge of the property at the time.
Speaker 2: Well it was a good junket that way, Yeah too, right,
Speaker 2: it was what else did you do when you were there?
Speaker 5: We went and saw a lot of.
Speaker 27: The s supermarkets Disneyland. I thought, oh, well that would
Speaker 27: be for kids in that I'll tell you what. I've
Speaker 27: been back to America since, and in the first place
Speaker 27: we work with Disneyland because it was really something so well,
Speaker 27: there's many many things I saw.
Speaker 5: Are they you know the.
Speaker 27: For the world, the fish and so on. But anyway,
Speaker 27: that's their adventure out there.
Speaker 2: What's your favorite supermarket? These days? There are Kendall, I
Speaker 2: do the shopping and I go to a new world
Speaker 2: and stoke brilliant. It's good, is it?
Speaker 5: It's just being a.
Speaker 27: New ones being built at the at the present time?
Speaker 1: Is it?
Speaker 2: Are your self checkout, no, no where.
Speaker 27: I'll get a bigger order than that, okay, and so
Speaker 27: I get the the ladies to do it.
Speaker 11: Brilliant.
Speaker 2: Nice to hear from your Kendall. Thank you. Nine to eleven.
Speaker 2: What we are talking about is Jaws. Because it's fifty
Speaker 2: years ago on the twentieth, which is three days away
Speaker 2: that it was released in the United States. Many call
Speaker 2: it the greatest movie ever made, not for the greatest skip,
Speaker 2: not for the greatest acting, not but just the greatest
Speaker 2: general all around film, which is probably fair enough. Spielberg
Speaker 2: did it twenty eight apparently he was when he nailed that.
Speaker 2: That's pretty unbelievable. And I think a lot of the
Speaker 2: success of the movie is because the mechanical shark was
Speaker 2: such a dud that a lot of the frights hat
Speaker 2: to be implied rather than spelt. Out, which made the
Speaker 2: movie psychologically more terrifying. Of course I haven't seen it,
Speaker 2: which I love telling people. But it's on TV this
Speaker 2: weekend on Bravo on Sunday night, so they never know.
Speaker 2: But come Monday I might be all sharked up. Be
Speaker 2: fun to watch it with commercials. I flew from Nelson
Speaker 2: to christ to eight pms. We're born in the partner,
Speaker 2: so we want to get away hit a schedule to
Speaker 2: try and beat the fog that's due to cover Christ
Speaker 2: Churcher other time we land We took our five minutes
Speaker 2: early and no sign of fog when we landed fully
Speaker 2: three minutes that I've never been on a flight that
Speaker 2: actually left a hit a schedule. Great, Hi John, AT's Marcus?
Speaker 2: Good evening?
Speaker 4: Yeah, Hi Marcus.
Speaker 22: Yeah.
Speaker 4: There's quite a famous scene in Jaws when Roy Scheider,
Speaker 4: the guy that plays the police chief.
Speaker 22: Is on the beach and.
Speaker 4: There is there's a big scare on the beach. It
Speaker 4: creates a whole lot of panic and Steven Spielberg, the director,
Speaker 4: he is quite a what's become quite a famous method
Speaker 4: of filming for that scene and what they did they
Speaker 4: put the camera on a like a little track that
Speaker 4: allowed them to pull the camera back from from Roy Scheider,
Speaker 4: but at the same time they zoom in, So it
Speaker 4: creates quite a cinematic effect that that enheartss the sort
Speaker 4: of panic that he's showing, you know, And it's a
Speaker 4: famous method of filming that has since been used quite
Speaker 4: a lot. And sometimes I see it in movies and
Speaker 4: I think, oh, that's the that's the Jaws technical or
Speaker 4: that beach.
Speaker 2: So just to clarify, you've got tracks with the carts
Speaker 2: on it, and you've got the camera fixed and they're
Speaker 2: pulling that back, but you've got a focused person that's
Speaker 2: actually focusing zooming it in as it's been pulled back.
Speaker 22: That's right.
Speaker 2: Well, I hadn't thought about that. That's quite clever, isn't it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're watching it this weekend for the first time,
Speaker 4: you might notice that one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it must be quite cinematog cinematographically significant with
Speaker 2: some of the things they've done, because I guess what
Speaker 2: happens when you're young and you're kind of pressed for time,
Speaker 2: and you know, and the mechanical shark's not working, you
Speaker 2: pull out all the tricks.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yes, I think there were quite a few, because
Speaker 4: I think It's really a film that, although he didn't
Speaker 4: get the Academy Award, it certainly put him on the
Speaker 4: map as a very innovative director.
Speaker 2: I think we all know the Academy. I think we
Speaker 2: all know the academies are rigged though, aren't where someone
Speaker 2: gets because.
Speaker 5: It's the.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think so too. But he went on
Speaker 4: to direct, of course, Close Encounters of the Third Kind,
Speaker 4: with Richard Jafuss starring in that as well, who was
Speaker 4: in Jaws. So yeah, that was another thing they collaborated on.
Speaker 6: Have you seen it?
Speaker 2: Have you seen it recently?
Speaker 4: I can't remember the last time I saw it, but
Speaker 4: I have seen it several times and it's it's in
Speaker 4: a movie I enjoy.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think.
Speaker 4: Actually the first ever three D movie that I saw
Speaker 4: was Jaws three three D. I think it was quite
Speaker 4: quite an early one that they did in three D.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it was very good. My first three
Speaker 2: D movie was Piranha and it wasn't much good.
Speaker 4: No, yeah, I only for that one too.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 2: No, because ten to fifteen years ago, three D movies
Speaker 2: and all the rage again. But now they're cand be
Speaker 2: disappeared again, haven't they. There's no nothing anymore?
Speaker 4: Na you don't see it, you know, I remember because
Speaker 4: I've taken my kids to three D movies, can't remember
Speaker 4: what they were, but no, that would have been yeah,
Speaker 4: sort of probably over ten years ago.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because even Avatar was three D and I don't
Speaker 2: know if the sequel was or not, but that seemed
Speaker 2: to be a big part of Avatar's success. That was
Speaker 2: at hollow me kind of feel that's right, Yeah, it
Speaker 2: was okay, John, Thanks for that. Now Dolly Zoom, I've
Speaker 2: been to look at that. I was talking to you,
Speaker 2: Get out of the water. That's the famous Dolly Zoom.
Speaker 2: Thank you for those texts getting touched. My name is Marcus, Welcome.
Speaker 2: We are talking duels. Your thoughts on that could be
Speaker 2: fifty years before another chance to talk about this on
Speaker 2: the radio, that's right, long time. You might be one
Speaker 2: of those people that have never seen it and how
Speaker 2: that felt like spending your whole life something that you've
Speaker 2: kind of couldn't even talk about because you had no
Speaker 2: experience of it. Well, just looking at that video of
Speaker 2: the Dolly Zoom, what's the colors look really vibrant on it,
Speaker 2: which I'm quite excited about. There's all those movies in
Speaker 2: the seventy. Look that looks sensational. The old Dolly Zoo
Speaker 2: may fire seems to be contained. That's the father. Oh,
Speaker 2: I can't remember afar in a supermarket like that before.
Speaker 2: By the way, there's this huge supermarket opening in Rolliston.
Speaker 2: The South Island's largest supermarket are Peck and Save forty
Speaker 2: million dollars. For those that don't know, Roliston is a
Speaker 2: city you can actually see growing, built to withstand anything.
Speaker 2: It's been built to continue operating through major seismic events.
Speaker 2: Four hundred andy five car parks because you need those
Speaker 2: because there have been no buses. The people used to
Speaker 2: have Peck and Save Rickerton and New World Bewcluther fourteenth
Speaker 2: of October twenty twenty five is where it opens.
Speaker 11: There we go.
Speaker 2: I wonder whether they'll have tellers. It'll just all be
Speaker 2: self scanning. Good evening, George, welcome.
Speaker 16: Yeah, you're mentioning the Trump parade. The birthday present parade.
Speaker 2: Yes is seventy ninth and the two fifty year of
Speaker 2: two and fifty years of the American military.
Speaker 34: I suppose it was I've recorded that, but I watched
Speaker 34: most of it, and there was a couple of things
Speaker 34: that amazed me.
Speaker 16: How slow it was, and they seemed to spread it
Speaker 16: out so that the fireworks would end up being taken
Speaker 16: in the dark because they couldn't have it going any faster.
Speaker 2: I think the service people would just round off, having
Speaker 2: just spent a day rehearsing. It just seemed to be
Speaker 2: over it.
Speaker 16: They I've watched the Russian parades. Those guys have impeccable timing.
Speaker 16: Everything's up close. It's mess on mess, you know. And
Speaker 16: you watch the Chinese one and.
Speaker 8: They have just.
Speaker 16: Impickable clothing, the timing, the lines are dead straight, no
Speaker 16: one's out of place, every movement is all together a mess.
Speaker 16: It's incredible. In the North Korean ones, you know, same again,
Speaker 16: huge background, huge number of people with flags, all waving
Speaker 16: and everybody cheering, everybody on. And he watched the Trump ones.
Speaker 16: The guys weren't even walking properly in step. Their expressions
Speaker 16: on their faces was why do I have to do this?
Speaker 16: Didn't even in straight lines.
Speaker 2: Did you see the drone guy.
Speaker 16: Oh, he just sort of carried it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, unbelievable the.
Speaker 16: Point, I don't know. And it looked like a drone
Speaker 16: out of the local toy shop. Yes, yes, And Trump
Speaker 16: many times his ies grouped doing a Biden. You sort
Speaker 16: of wondered if he'd fallen asleep.
Speaker 2: Well, I think most of the time he's realizing, Gee,
Speaker 2: why did I ask for this? This is just ridiculous?
Speaker 16: No, why did he demand it? Because he demanded on
Speaker 16: his first time and they refused, so he didn't get it.
Speaker 2: He went to Paris with mccrawn and saw one that
Speaker 2: he was quite impressed with because the French you're good
Speaker 2: at that, and wanted one, and of course too. It
Speaker 2: just made the US military look incredibly underwhelming and not
Speaker 2: laughing and not fight fit, because I reckon most of
Speaker 2: them can't serve anyway because they won't pass the health
Speaker 2: standards because their physical condition is so poor. And I
Speaker 2: think that was a fairly quick representation of it.
Speaker 16: And where are the missiles? Where are the decent bits
Speaker 16: of armory instead of tank on tank on tank?
Speaker 2: Were there any fly people? Were there any flyovers?
Speaker 6: Yes?
Speaker 16: There were. You didn't see much of them, though, But
Speaker 16: the guys in the tanks were all waving and cheering
Speaker 16: everything as if they'd been told to do that, you know.
Speaker 16: But the guys marching one or two would turn to
Speaker 16: Trump as if they wanted a salute, but the rest
Speaker 16: of the guys know, in the middle of the crowd,
Speaker 16: you know, in the Chinese they all turned to the
Speaker 16: president as they go past, or premiere or is he
Speaker 16: what his name is? The Russian ones that will turned
Speaker 16: to putin, you know, their heads turned to the right
Speaker 16: and snap.
Speaker 2: And the same with the where did you get hold
Speaker 2: of it?
Speaker 16: I watched the whole thing on teev It was interesting.
Speaker 16: Fox Fox had it on, but they kept poking advertisements
Speaker 16: in the middle of it, which I thought was really amazing.
Speaker 16: And then they replayed it later in the night full
Speaker 16: with no advertisements, so somebody must have complained. And then
Speaker 16: if you went to Sky Australia, they had it on
Speaker 16: there and the BBC had it. But the BBC had
Speaker 16: their own commentary running to a certain extent as well,
Speaker 16: and the girl and the Americans when they had the
Speaker 16: parade running, instead of watching the whole parade when the
Speaker 16: advertisements were on, well they seemed to cut to this
Speaker 16: chat stuff and it was just you know, yak, yak, yak,
Speaker 16: about how great they were in everything between these two
Speaker 16: guys or this guy on this bill commentary, and it
Speaker 16: was like, shut up with you. I want to actually
Speaker 16: see the parade?
Speaker 2: How long was it?
Speaker 12: And the.
Speaker 2: Sorry, how low did the prey take?
Speaker 22: Oh?
Speaker 16: Ours started at ten o'clock on TV and they finished
Speaker 16: about three and it finished well, it must have been
Speaker 16: an afternoon one there, because it finished as it got
Speaker 16: dark and then they had it would have been an
Speaker 16: hour of fireworks in the middle of all this stuff,
Speaker 16: which was choreographed with music, and it was quite interesting.
Speaker 16: But the amount of money they must have spent on
Speaker 16: fireworks was huge.
Speaker 2: Were there any bagpipes or anything?
Speaker 16: I didn't see any bagpipes. They started the parade with
Speaker 16: the sort of like seventeen hundreds with drawn carriages and
Speaker 16: guys and red and white English type soldier uniforms and
Speaker 16: all this sort of stuff. So they went right back
Speaker 16: through history and slowly worked there up to the present.
Speaker 16: Then they went through all the different platoons and all
Speaker 16: the different airborne divisions, everything related to the army. So
Speaker 16: they had all the desert uniform Desert Storm uniforms, and
Speaker 16: all this sort of stuff was all there, so they
Speaker 16: showed all the different.
Speaker 2: It was quite a big deal when Desert Storm came
Speaker 2: out with that special desert camouflage and those special dessert boots.
Speaker 2: That was a big thing. I remember that win.
Speaker 34: In nineteen ninety I was which I was actually involved
Speaker 34: with an international outfit and we had a TV screen
Speaker 34: satellite feeds from all the Iraq and Kuwait, Yep and
Speaker 34: all the American armories.
Speaker 16: You know, in the history of the Americans, they used
Speaker 16: to have those wagons and circles to fight the Indians off.
Speaker 16: In the movies. Yes, well, we saw flying over the desert.
Speaker 16: They had huge encampments, tampments with there would have been
Speaker 16: probably five hundred one thousand tanks, not kidding, in tents
Speaker 16: and all sorts of stuff in these huge encampments in
Speaker 16: the middle of the desert. And then there was a
Speaker 16: big gap, and then there'd be another one would fly
Speaker 16: over that, and there'd be another one and another one,
Speaker 16: and Yeah, it just went on and on, and I
Speaker 16: wish I'd videoed it. And I just couldn't believe how
Speaker 16: much money had been spent on all the stuff that
Speaker 16: was never returned to the States and just left behind. Wow,
Speaker 16: and it's just amazing. And you know, the tanks had
Speaker 16: blades on bulldos of blades on them, so that when
Speaker 16: they got to the trenches where the Iraqis were they
Speaker 16: simply just pushed this end over them and buried them.
Speaker 16: Then they could just go ahead, but rowning over the trenches.
Speaker 16: You know, the stuff that I saw there was just amazing.
Speaker 16: The the you know, the shots of where they shut
Speaker 16: up all the all the roads and all the trucks
Speaker 16: and everything, and demolition of that. What you saw on
Speaker 16: TV at home was nothing compared to the international news
Speaker 16: feeds that were going through at the.
Speaker 2: Time, because it was the first kind of contract we
Speaker 2: had CNN, didn't we There was a lot of you
Speaker 2: remember for.
Speaker 16: That, yes, yes, but it was also choreographed all the newspeople.
Speaker 16: From what we saw and what we understood from the
Speaker 16: army information for the Americans was they were all taken
Speaker 16: in groups to the same places to see the same things.
Speaker 16: They never saw the rest of what was going on,
Speaker 16: So they were taken to what the army wanted the
Speaker 16: public to see, and so everybody kept seeing the same thing.
Speaker 2: What was your role, George, Can you say any more
Speaker 2: about that?
Speaker 6: I was and.
Speaker 16: Sometimes controlling feeds to Televison New Zealand, Okay, and all
Speaker 16: this sort of thing. So we're feeding news feeds through
Speaker 16: and feeding news feeds out I was actually in control
Speaker 16: of the nineteen ninety Commonwealth Games to the World. Wow,
Speaker 16: I pushed the button to turn that on. So I've
Speaker 16: had some interesting moments. I looked at the button on
Speaker 16: the console and the screen as we had the opening ceremony,
Speaker 16: and I could turn off the world. You know, if
Speaker 16: I was a rebel, I could turn off the world
Speaker 16: and they wouldn't see nothing.
Speaker 2: Clearly, you didn't nice to talk, George, Thank you, twenty
Speaker 2: six past eleven. Well, he's a good point. Got a
Speaker 2: feel for the New World staff at Freeman's Bay, the
Speaker 2: uncertainty of where they may be relocated to other food
Speaker 2: stuff locations if you're lucky enough. So yeah, I don't
Speaker 2: know about that. The insurance not cover their wages during
Speaker 2: the rebuild. Perhaps they don't. That is a concern. Marcus.
Speaker 2: My memory of Jews. When I was twelve years old,
Speaker 2: my mother dropped myself and three other siblings off at
Speaker 2: the picture theater. She was late picking us up. I
Speaker 2: went back there together toilet the movie theater locked up.
Speaker 2: Was in the bathroom. Locked inside a theater at twelve
Speaker 2: was traumatizing. I bet my mother ran down the street
Speaker 2: to find the lady with the Keys. Every time Juork
Speaker 2: comes on now it brings back memories of me being
Speaker 2: locked in the theater. I often wonder why did my
Speaker 2: mother drop us to see such a gruesome movie. At
Speaker 2: twelve the Crusaders, we meet the Chiefs in the twenty
Speaker 2: twenty five Super Rugby Pacific Grand Final. I see old
Speaker 2: Colin Man's bridge. I think it's some. He's banned the
Speaker 2: cow bells from the stadium, so I thought it was gutless.
Speaker 2: But they've done that and slightly precious New Zealand's winter Solstice.
Speaker 2: The shortest day is Saturday, twenty first of June twenty
Speaker 2: twenty five, at two forty one pm. From then on
Speaker 2: the days get longer and the first all Black game
Speaker 2: of the years against France July five in Dunedin. Have
Speaker 2: destroyed that by sending down a B team. I can't
Speaker 2: work out when they can't stop that, just ruining rugby,
Speaker 2: the obsession with the World Cup. Would have loved to
Speaker 2: have gone that match if it was going to be
Speaker 2: any good, but now have no interest. Good evening, Pete,
Speaker 2: it's Marcus. Welcome, Marcus there going good Pete yourself? You're
Speaker 2: not seeing George?
Speaker 35: Yeah?
Speaker 30: I have actually see I put the damn good movie,
Speaker 30: but I thought it was quite well. You were old
Speaker 30: they had made it. But in the day I don't
Speaker 30: stand good move.
Speaker 2: Yeah, everyone seems to think that one of the best.
Speaker 30: I reckon it was, yeah, sounds and everything, it was
Speaker 30: quite quite well done. You're just regarding the I can't
Speaker 30: play bring the bells down at thet the final on.
Speaker 2: So they're not and it's very toldish, incredibly childish, because
Speaker 2: there wouldn't be many people coming down from from the
Speaker 2: Wyekado anyway.
Speaker 30: If they bring whoever whatever team it is. If you
Speaker 30: can't handle the pressure, well tough.
Speaker 22: You know.
Speaker 2: They said it would be dangerous to have a cow bell,
Speaker 2: Well no one's been. No one's who'd of Whitekato standing
Speaker 2: with the cow bells?
Speaker 30: Are they absolutely prosthetic? And yeah, there should be a
Speaker 30: shane in themself. Actually, I hope they do. After that,
Speaker 30: they lose it by quite a bit.
Speaker 37: They deserve to lose it now. The crusaders don't want
Speaker 37: the cheat to win anyway, but they deserveship.
Speaker 2: Brother, did you know about that or you just heard
Speaker 2: it when I said it?
Speaker 30: No, I just hit it now.
Speaker 37: I couldn't believe I just can't believe and if you
Speaker 37: cross shocked, I just.
Speaker 2: Bring the article ups to make sure I've got it right.
Speaker 37: Yeah, yeah, shouldn't be to stop that.
Speaker 2: Crusader's chief executive Colin Maine for said the band was
Speaker 2: due to spectator safety.
Speaker 37: We have, we have the games here on some you
Speaker 37: plumber the highlands. What they bring their buckets along, you.
Speaker 2: Know they bang on the part of it to kill
Speaker 2: the vibe.
Speaker 30: Apparently detonment.
Speaker 37: I think, bring whatever you like along long you not
Speaker 37: hit anybody.
Speaker 2: We've made the decision to ban cow bells for the
Speaker 2: Super Rugby Grand Final to ensure fans are able to
Speaker 2: come to the stadium and enjoy a great game of
Speaker 2: rugby where everyone is safe.
Speaker 37: What that is bad sportsmanship?
Speaker 2: Totally bad sportsmanship.
Speaker 3: Yees.
Speaker 6: Not not that they got room.
Speaker 2: That they've got room for those bloody horses going back
Speaker 2: and forward.
Speaker 30: You know, let's see what they can have that fun.
Speaker 37: They don't mind bringing the horses along with it. They
Speaker 37: can bring whatever they bring along. But is the other
Speaker 37: the other opposition team they want to bring what they
Speaker 37: want to bring along and where it's just intertoned.
Speaker 2: Just certainly makes half the country want to back back.
Speaker 2: White cutter, doesn't it?
Speaker 7: Ah after that, never coding.
Speaker 30: These crusaders now they're hips the car a tune on them.
Speaker 2: Good to hear so animated. Pete, thank you, and it's Marcus. Welcome.
Speaker 6: I'm Marcus.
Speaker 38: I've just been listening and talking about sharks and things,
Speaker 38: and I always remember my mother telling me the story.
Speaker 38: She was a good swimmer in her day, and this
Speaker 38: would have been about them or forties. In the nineteen forties,
Speaker 38: she was a member of the Wolminary Surf Club and
Speaker 38: they were at a competition down in Tea tie Bade
Speaker 38: near Willington, and they must have had a lunch break
Speaker 38: or something, so she just went out for a swim
Speaker 38: in the bay, and she said, then she was swimming around,
Speaker 38: she all of a sudden had a feeling that there
Speaker 38: was something swamed past her, but she couldn't see anything.
Speaker 38: And when she happened to look back into the shore,
Speaker 38: her teammates were waving at her, and she thought they
Speaker 38: were just waving, so she waved back and it wasn't
Speaker 38: until she got back into the shore they were waving
Speaker 38: or I hope that they've seen a spin in the water.
Speaker 3: Wow, they were.
Speaker 38: Waving at her. To come back in. But so she
Speaker 38: must thing went right past very close to us, so
Speaker 38: obviously it wasn't hungry enough for you know, she had.
Speaker 2: Lucky escape, did she see?
Speaker 16: Yous? I do?
Speaker 38: And I'll never forget that. I can still have that
Speaker 38: very first scene lodged in my mind when they still
Speaker 38: went out early morning, and I can still remember seeing
Speaker 38: her shooting sideways through the water all of a sudden,
Speaker 38: and I'll never get that first scene out of my head.
Speaker 38: But I haven't started the swimming.
Speaker 2: I can't wait to see it. And but thanks so
Speaker 2: much for that. Nice to hear from you. Yes, the
Speaker 2: other topic too, if you want to get outrageous about
Speaker 2: the Canterbury rugby team or the Crusaders. Health and skinned evening,
Speaker 2: Cheryl Good evening, Hi.
Speaker 32: Marcus, how are you good?
Speaker 2: Cheryl Good?
Speaker 32: Yeah, I'm really gutted that the no cowbells are allowed
Speaker 32: on Saturday night.
Speaker 2: Yeah, seems surprised. A cow bell is a feature of
Speaker 2: White Cato the Super rugby team though.
Speaker 32: Yes, of course the games yeah both Yeah, whether it's
Speaker 32: NPC or Super Rugby, the cowbells are always there. And
Speaker 32: I'm really really pissed off the Crusaders. They need to
Speaker 32: get off their bloody pedestals. I don't know who they
Speaker 32: think they are, who made them chiefs go? Yeah, I
Speaker 32: hope the chiefs go down there and kick their asses
Speaker 32: big time.
Speaker 10: I really do.
Speaker 32: I'm really pissed off, to be honest, yep, not on
Speaker 32: bad sportsmanship.
Speaker 2: And there's probably no one going to find up with
Speaker 2: cow bells anyway. It's probably sold out for the cantabs.
Speaker 32: Oh exactly. I had looked at at prices of tickets,
Speaker 32: you know, the e fares, but they were between four
Speaker 32: hundred and six hundred dollars that was in I find
Speaker 32: from Hamilton or Auckland. Yeah, not not doable, which is
Speaker 32: which is a shame. So yeah, I'm just I'm discattered.
Speaker 17: I don't know the text.
Speaker 2: The Texas people are furiously saying, no, no wonder. Everyone
Speaker 2: hates the Crusaders. People think it's terrible, yellow yellow bellies,
Speaker 2: pecker w words. People hate them.
Speaker 32: I know that we were some of the some of
Speaker 32: us up here call them the cheap Saders, not the Crusaders.
Speaker 15: The cheap Saders.
Speaker 2: Don't see how that works for clever I me, Marcus, welcome,
Speaker 2: Are you.
Speaker 15: Cool?
Speaker 22: Yeah?
Speaker 6: You just said the old rugby thing mate episode. So
Speaker 6: who canceled.
Speaker 2: The beltin Colin Mansbridge?
Speaker 6: Who is he?
Speaker 10: Oh?
Speaker 2: He's like the head biscuit of Canterburry Rugby.
Speaker 6: Oh, okay, So he speaks for the whole of white
Speaker 6: Killow rugby.
