I tell you what, if the New Zealand 13 00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:38,440 Speaker 2: Labour Party want to get real about re election, they 14 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,000 Speaker 2: should look no further than the UK Labor Party. So 15 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 2: keya Starmer blew up the NHS on Friday. It doesn't work, 16 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:50,240 Speaker 2: he said, the bloating of the numbers has not improved anything. 17 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 2: He said jobs will be lost now. Before he blew 18 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 2: up the NHS, he attacked the welfare system. He called 19 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 2: it unjust and unfair. Essentially, there are far too many 20 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 2: people sitting on welfare doing nothing, and there's no incentive 21 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 2: for them to change their habits. Remember this is a 22 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 2: British labor prime minister. We're also expecting the Chancellor to 23 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 2: slash more spending. Why because they don't have any money. 24 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 2: Oh if only Hipkins or an Adern or a Robertson 25 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 2: were anything close to this. What was close to this, 26 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 2: by the way, was Roger Douglas, David Longee, Richard Prebble, 27 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 2: David Kagel and Mike Moore the proper Labour Party, the 28 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 2: Labour Party many recognized as being the middle of the road, 29 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 2: centrist type party that a lot of New Zealanders could recognize. 30 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,959 Speaker 2: If what Starmer is up to works, he's Blair two 31 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 2: point zero and the lesson Blair taught us is the 32 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 2: same lesson that Bob Hawk taught us in Australia. A 33 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,680 Speaker 2: labor movement doesn't have to be about wokeness and largesse 34 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 2: an economic ineptitude. It needs to be about common sense 35 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 2: the worker, and the worker, by the way, is not 36 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 2: a hardcore unionist, but a middle class New Zealander who 37 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 2: gets up, makes their kids, lunches, heads to work, comes 38 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 2: home a little bit late. Bit tired, ready for a 39 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 2: barbecue and a beer at the weekend, living in their 40 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 2: own home in suburbia, with a belief that life is 41 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 2: pretty good. New Zealand is pretty good and the future 42 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 2: is moderately bright. None of that is hard, but a betch. 43 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 2: It's completely foreign to most of the current labor lot, 44 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 2: who butchered the place between twenty seventeen and twenty twenty three. 45 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 2: The old adage around votes and political support, about the 46 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 2: center being large and a place to get a lot 47 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 2: of success is real, and we wouldn't mind some wider representation. 48 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 2: I mean, national or labor can occupy the center. History 49 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 2: shows it's possible and it's successful. Hipkins needs to study 50 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 2: Starma and learn. 51 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: News of the world.

Many individuals from the 71 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 5: countryside surrounding the cost came seeking revenge. 72 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 2: At the space station.

They're getting all their belongings together before they 74 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,920 Speaker 2: head back to Earth. Some debate around the claim that 75 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 2: a new president might have made the rescue a little 76 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 2: bit quicker. 77 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 8: The schedule. 78 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 9: Even way before the Trump administration. We knew that the 79 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 9: schedule was going to be February. SpaceX delayed it even 80 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 9: further till March. And that's why it's just an issue 81 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 9: of supply, so. 82 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 2: Had nothing to do with the President. Len a Britain 83 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 2: couple of things. One, the reform scrap between mister Law 84 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 2: and mister Farage is at least according to one side, 85 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 2: and not a bit. 86 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 10: It's very much at the agency. It's marginal. And look, 87 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 10: you know something, can you imagine given the complaints that 88 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 10: have been made against one of our MPs, can you 89 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 10: imagine if I've not done anything about it. Yeah, yeah, 90 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 10: had knowledge of allegations. 91 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 2: And two some growing uneas within labor. The aforementioned actually 92 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 2: over the pending welfare cuts.

In the answer as well, 105 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 2: yes they have Chapter eleven of course sort of provides 106 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,359 Speaker 2: you more protection rather than you closing the door. But 107 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 2: that originally they were filing in twenty nineteen. Anyway, Fast 108 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,839 Speaker 2: Fashions Dead or Dying.

I think we 128 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 11: You've just got to be a little bit patient. So look, 129 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 11: we've started the week with relative carmen off to markets. Actually, 130 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 11: I do want to make that point. That's a little unusual. 131 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 11: So no tariff discussions over the weekend out of the 132 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 11: White House, so I'm not sure whether that's an uneasy 133 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 11: silence or not. 134 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 8: Yeah, but yesterday morning, Mike, I think you covered off. 135 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 11: The manufacturing index update that we that we got from 136 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,159 Speaker 11: B and Z Businesses on that was released on Friday, 137 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 11: and good news on that front. And we're also we 138 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 11: cheered that the partner data series is the Services Index 139 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 11: was released yesterday, So manufacturing cause for cheer, but unfortunately 140 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 11: the services outcome has sort of deflated. 141 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 8: Pop that bubble a little bit. 142 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 11: Because the services sector has slipped slipped back into contraction 143 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 11: after sort of just nudging into expansionary territory in January. 144 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 8: So sort of raining on. 145 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 11: The little parade I was planning on a little parade today, Mike, 146 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 11: the nascent economic recovery parade, and we've had to. 147 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 8: Put that, We've had to postpone that. 148 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 11: So forty nine point one was the number for the 149 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 11: Services index. So revisiting the space at occupied for much 150 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,679 Speaker 11: of last year, which was below fifty, and just looking 151 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 11: through the sub indexes, you know, activity. 152 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 8: Sales that fell quite a bit. It fell four. 153 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 11: Point six points forty nine point two, new orders business 154 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 11: forty nine point four. What's going on here? Employment still 155 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 11: in contraction. But here's the thing. Let's take the glass 156 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 11: half full approach, though a note that in the last 157 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 11: couple of months both manufacturing and services have had one month. 158 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 8: In expansionary territory. 159 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 11: So that's an improvement on last year. 160 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 8: It's not earth. 161 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 11: Shattering, it's an improvement. Let's accept this inevitable noise in 162 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 11: the monthly did what it does underline, Mike those that 163 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 11: is that while we are we are going to see 164 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 11: an economic recovery this year, it's not going to be 165 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 11: a frothy recovery. If you look at the comments that 166 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 11: were made when they do the survey, they ask people 167 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 11: for comments, and the overall tough economic climate that still 168 00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 11: remained the key observation.

So could 209 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 11: it be a change of trend? 210 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 2: Were you sure?

Managing Director of ABC Business Sales, Chris Smallback, Well, 339 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 2: this Chris, very good morning to you we might be 340 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 2: doing very well. Indeed, thank you. No security on the 341 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 2: loans at the time. In other words, if you said 342 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 2: you needed them, you got it. Was that a risk? 343 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 14: Yeah, it's a huge risk, Mike. You know, in hindsight 344 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 14: that the previous regime could look back. I'm sure they 345 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 14: would wind it back and put a few more bells 346 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 14: and braces in there, because what they're now finding is 347 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 14: people basically took the money thinking it was unlikely the 348 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 14: I'm going to pay it back, and sure enough they 349 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 14: haven't paid it back with little consequences. No security was 350 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 14: taken in the way pg's personal guarantees or any GSA's 351 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 14: every businesses. So it was a real free hit for 352 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 14: the business owner at the time. 353 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 2: So where where does the responsibility sit? Ultimately? Is the 354 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 2: business owner going to get pinged in some way if 355 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 2: they don't pay it back or not? And if they do, 356 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 2: what does that mean for the business community in general? Now, 357 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 2: are we going to see a whole bunch of small 358 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 2: companies go under I don't. 359 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 14: Believe so, because there was no security taken, so their 360 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,359 Speaker 14: houses aren't at risk, no personal guarantees, so they can't 361 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 14: get personally bankrupted. All the id from what I have seen, 362 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,160 Speaker 14: the red can do is put them this to fould 363 00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 14: interest rate. You said, it'll keep mounting up and capitalizing, 364 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 14: and certainly in the sole traders position, they may just 365 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 14: walk away and set up a new entity or just 366 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 14: ignore it. But I don't think it's realistic for the 367 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 14: IOD to go around and just administration to speak, for 368 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,160 Speaker 14: these one hundred and twenty odd thousand people to chase 369 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 14: it's just nothing to happen. So it's just it was 370 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 14: a balls up. That's can ecost Us hundreds of millions 371 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 14: of dollars unfortunately. 372 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 2: So we're on the hook for that. It's money that 373 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 2: At what point, I don't know, this is a new wheelhouse. 374 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 2: At what point does a government, because this will be 375 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 2: on the government books as a as a you know 376 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 2: it's coming back, it's our money, will get it. At 377 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 2: what point do they then write that off and go 378 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 2: we'll never see it again. 379 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 14: Well, they certainly won't do it this regime. It's a 380 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,479 Speaker 14: bit like student loans. They never really wipe them off. 381 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 14: They to seep them go for perpetuity and keep saying 382 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,360 Speaker 14: it's on the balance sheet. But the realistic situations, I'll 383 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,680 Speaker 14: never see the money a fair bit of it anyway. 384 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 2: Jeez, talk to me while I've got you the market 385 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 2: for sales and business generally, are we bullish? Are we 386 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 2: seeing any light? Are we still turning over? 387 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 15: Yeah? 388 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:11,680 Speaker 16: Good? 389 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 14: Good questions. So we just we just finalized the numbers 390 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,360 Speaker 14: to the end of FEB sits. In the eleven months, 391 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 14: we were fifteen percent up on transactions, largely driven by 392 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 14: unskilled ethnic groups coming into New Zealand, Indians, Filipinos, Chinese 393 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 14: buying businesses like service stations, fruits stores, bottle stores. So 394 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 14: up hasn't really been a drop off in business sales, 395 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 14: but that's largely driven by unemployment and unskilled immigration coming 396 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 14: into New Zealand. So we're a little bit characacistical. Well, 397 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:44,919 Speaker 14: good for business, but good for business sales? Is it 398 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 14: good for New Zealand? And at least people do bring 399 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 14: workI fick to the economy. And you know, small businesses 400 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:53,959 Speaker 14: are the lifeblood of New Zealand. So I don't think 401 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,360 Speaker 14: it's necessarily a bad thing. There's plenty of put this way, 402 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 14: there's plenty of keys who don't want to buy these 403 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 14: types of businesses, those types of so I think we 404 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 14: need that balanced, all right. 405 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,479 Speaker 2: I broadly like it. But I do worry about when 406 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 2: you say unskilled, how does an unskilled person get into 407 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 2: the country. 408 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 14: Well, without Delvin and too deep. They seem to have 409 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:18,920 Speaker 14: relations and cousins and news who live here. I think 410 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 14: there's some weeks good on immigration, but it seems to 411 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 14: be the large driver the reasons, the large families who 412 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 14: have sort of multiple touch points in New Zealand. 413 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 2: So up fifteen percent, All right, Chris, nice to talk 414 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,359 Speaker 2: to you. Appreciate it as always, Chris Small ABC business Sales. 415 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 2: I'm sure there's a conversation that we had with Erica 416 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 2: Stanford there somewhere, isn't there. It's nineteen minutes away from 417 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 2: seven Again, He's one hundred percent right. The work ethic 418 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,879 Speaker 2: of your average immigrant is a vast improvement on the 419 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 2: work ethic of far too many New Zealanders. Unfortunately. Daniel Herbert, 420 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:51,400 Speaker 2: you remember Daniel Herbert ex Wallaby. He runs Rugby Australia 421 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 2: these days and he's reading yesterday in the Australian Press. 422 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 2: He's the chair of Rugby Australia. And this is good 423 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 2: news for rugby because they need good news. The Super 424 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 2: season so far, average number of points per game is 425 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 2: the highest ever, one of the narrowest narrowest average winning 426 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 2: margins on record, So they're tight my vintage, he says, 427 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 2: all sort of reminisce about yesteryear when this happened and 428 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 2: that happened. It's pretty clear we've never seen footy as 429 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 2: good as this or rugby as good as this. It 430 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,399 Speaker 2: is the best of the best. Do you think he's right? 431 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 2: Eighteen to two. 432 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio coward 433 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 1: By News talks a. 434 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 2: B welling Mike, another slow clap for those who thought 435 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 2: Jacinda was the messiah. Very good, Mike, our builder been 436 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 2: in New Zealand fifteen years, exceptionally good. Took a forty 437 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,639 Speaker 2: K loan thinking it was not repayable, had a good 438 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 2: year prior to COVID, then very little for two years. 439 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 2: Also had fifty K to pay, no income to pay it. 440 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,199 Speaker 2: Add forty thousand penalties. IID wanted it all back in 441 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 2: three years. He's now shut. The business left the country. 442 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,200 Speaker 2: Very sad, Mike. I have one of those loans. During COVID, 443 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 2: the government used our admin in payroll system to pay 444 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 2: staff for no remuneration. After three years of recession, there's 445 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 2: no way we can repay those loans. Sam. See that's 446 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 2: the interesting point, isn't it, when you've buggered the economy 447 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 2: this badly. And this is Adrian Or and Grant Robertson 448 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,920 Speaker 2: and Justindra Adern and Chris Hipkins. So the whole idea was, look, 449 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 2: have the money, get the money out the door. How 450 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 2: many times did you hear Grant Robinson say, very important 451 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 2: to get the money out the door. The idea being 452 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 2: we'd bounce back with alacrity. We'd all be doing so 453 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 2: well that we'd be able to pay the loans back. 454 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 2: But of course, given what they did and how they 455 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,920 Speaker 2: handled it, we never were going to bounce back. In fact, 456 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 2: we had three recessions. So even at the end of 457 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,880 Speaker 2: it all years on, we're still talking about COVID. COVID 458 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 2: arrived in twenty twenty five years on, we're still talking 459 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:43,119 Speaker 2: about COVID and nothing's bounced back. And that's the problem. 460 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 2: So you haven't got the income to pay back the 461 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:46,880 Speaker 2: loan you shouldn't have got in the first place. Oh well, 462 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:49,880 Speaker 2: fourteen away from seven. 463 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 1: International correspondence with ends and eye insurance. Peace of mind 464 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: for New Zealand business. 465 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 2: This is Frank Captain Field. 466 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,400 Speaker 17: Good morning, Good morning mate, my row. 467 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 2: Big phone called Trump Puttin. How much anticipation around this 468 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 2: in Europe? 469 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 18: Oh, enormous anticipation, And I think we can honestly say 470 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:09,400 Speaker 18: a lot of skepticism. Nobody really thinks that it's going 471 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 18: to go well. There are concerns, of course, that you're 472 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,479 Speaker 18: on the eve of this phone call between Trump and Putin, 473 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,200 Speaker 18: that Europe will again be left. 474 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 17: Out of it. 475 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 18: I mean we're hearing, particularly from the EU foreign policy 476 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 18: chiefs saying the question of Europe being invited to the 477 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 18: negotiating table. 478 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 17: She said just a few hours ago it. 479 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,679 Speaker 18: Is not relevant because the Russians are not going to 480 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 18: come to the negotiating table. 481 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:34,400 Speaker 17: They said that there. 482 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 18: Are concerns that these are just sort of ideas and 483 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 18: preconditions that are coming out and that it will never 484 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 18: these talks between Trump and Putent will lead to nothing. 485 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 18: That the US might say, yes, we've got a deal, 486 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 18: but of course it may not come to anything. 487 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:52,160 Speaker 17: So there's concern about that. 488 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 18: At the same time, everyone in Europe is watching these 489 00:22:55,840 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 18: transatlantic alliances that's resolved, just dismantled or hour by hour 490 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 18: if you like. 491 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 17: And I think The big talking point at. 492 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:08,439 Speaker 18: The moment still is this idea that there would be 493 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 18: a coalition of the willing prepared to put troops on 494 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 18: the ground and to put in other types of logistics 495 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 18: for some sort of force to go into key points 496 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 18: in Ukraine. If it does so happen, that there would 497 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 18: be some sort of peace deal, some sort of ceasefire. 498 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:27,360 Speaker 17: Now, of course that's going to come up again. 499 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 18: On Thursday when we have another meeting of those military chiefs. 500 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 18: We saw one here in Paris just last week. New 501 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 18: Zealand and Australia present at that. But no big idea 502 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 18: even on that mic as to how many troops they'd be, 503 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 18: who'd give what. All we know is it would be 504 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 18: perhaps ten thousand troops, strong weapons, logistics, intelligence, But still 505 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 18: not clear about who would offer what, or what sort 506 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 18: of peace or what sort of ceasfire they would be 507 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,959 Speaker 18: looking at being a sort of a backstop for exactly. 508 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,040 Speaker 2: And how reliant are you on the Americans too? The 509 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 2: extent of that phone call goes the way we think 510 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 2: it is imputents and having no troops on the ground 511 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 2: at all, and America goes, well, look, we can do 512 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 2: a deal, but only if there's no troops on the ground. 513 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 2: What does Europe then do do they go oh okay 514 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 2: or what? Well? 515 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 18: They have come up with enormous amount of money that 516 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 18: they said that they can plow into Ukraine. 517 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 17: I mean they aren't. 518 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 18: The EU is negotiating to put in some forty billion euros. 519 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,120 Speaker 18: They're saying all the time, and we're hearing this again 520 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 18: from the Canadian Prime Minister and from the Emmanual Macron 521 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 18: today that there needs to be clear commitments from Russia. 522 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 18: There needs to be resolve and they need to all 523 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 18: stand together. 524 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:34,440 Speaker 17: So essentially what they. 525 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:38,719 Speaker 18: Are saying is, yes, if America appeals away him Russia 526 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 18: and America on that side, Europe will still stand firm. 527 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 18: And we're seeing countries like Poland talking about this European 528 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 18: nuclear umbrella where France becomes a nuclear safeguard for the 529 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 18: whole of Europe. 530 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,400 Speaker 17: So that's essential. They're going to get it all back 531 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 17: together and on that. 532 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 18: You know, we're going to get more on that as 533 00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 18: a week progress, as Mike, because we've got that big 534 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 18: European summit later on this week, and we've also got 535 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 18: the French President going to Germany on Tuesday for talks 536 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 18: there again about that nuclear guarantee exactly. 537 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 2: But you mentioned Cardia Mama Ago the new Canadian prime minister. 538 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,160 Speaker 2: Is this a flag waving exercise because he's in town 539 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:14,959 Speaker 2: and he didn't go to America And is this all 540 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 2: part of the I'm on the EU sides and the 541 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 2: coalition of the Willing, et cetera. 542 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 19: Oh? 543 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 18: Absolutely, As you rightly say, Minke, it used to be 544 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:25,920 Speaker 18: tradition that the Canadian Prime minister upon taking office goes 545 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:26,880 Speaker 18: straight to Washington. 546 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 17: He didn't this time. 547 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 18: Relations really are unraveling between the US and Canada. Canada's 548 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 18: economy and sovereignty under threat, just like the EU, the 549 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 18: idea of the US imposing tariff. So he was also 550 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 18: talking about tariffs to Emmanuel manchron that. You know, it's 551 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:50,200 Speaker 18: so many new alliances being formed at the same time 552 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 18: as just watching what is going on in the US. 553 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 2: Hey, super quick, and I know it hasn't started yet. 554 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,680 Speaker 2: But this Kardashian trial, which I was really what the 555 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 2: great deal of interest yesterday because it was can you 556 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 2: I believe that it's ten and this is what I 557 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:02,880 Speaker 2: want to know. It's ten years ago that she got 558 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 2: nabbed at Paris Fashion Week. Do things like this normally 559 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 2: take ten years to get to court. 560 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 18: Well, this is quite an extraor notine yet. It does 561 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 18: usually take a long time. But did I mention the 562 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 18: COVID word again, mikeh it. 563 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 17: It got held up by COVID. 564 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 18: But the police, particularly the Organized Crime Squad, they're really 565 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 18: furious that this is only going to come to trial 566 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 18: at the end of April this year, considering they caught 567 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 18: these guys back in January twenty seventeen. So you know, 568 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 18: we did our work. We got what's known as the 569 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,439 Speaker 18: Kadashian twelve. We brought them, and surely you can do 570 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 18: this job a bit faster. 571 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 2: We shall talk more when it gets underway. Nice to 572 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,119 Speaker 2: talk to Katheryne Catherine Field in France. One of them 573 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 2: is called old Omar. He's sixty nine. He's not that old, 574 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 2: sixty nine Old Omar. He suffers from a cute heart condition. 575 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 2: He's hard of hearing what he freely admits he was 576 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,000 Speaker 2: the leader of the gang. There's a guy called Unusabas 577 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,160 Speaker 2: who's seventy two. He wrote a book which was entitled 578 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 2: I Kidnapped Kim Kardashian. So I'm not sure the trial 579 00:26:58,680 --> 00:26:59,680 Speaker 2: is going to go particularly well. 580 00:26:59,680 --> 00:26:59,919 Speaker 8: For him. 581 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 2: We'll keep you posted. Nine away from seven. 582 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: The Mike Hosking Breakfast with the range Rover, the La 583 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 1: News Togs Dead be. 584 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 2: Morning, Mike. I go to COVID loan, have paid it back, 585 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,640 Speaker 2: but after lockdown, we were promised life would bounce back 586 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 2: to normal. It didn't. Labour ruined the economy, so no 587 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 2: one can afford to eat, let alone pay the loan back. 588 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 2: I burned through three hundred thousand dollars of savings keeping 589 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 2: my business open during COVID, paying staff, et cetera, wearing 590 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:25,119 Speaker 2: liquidations from other companies. It's a mess, five years of 591 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 2: mess exactly. So that's why these stories are so relevant 592 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,879 Speaker 2: and so important, because we're still here, we're still paying 593 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,120 Speaker 2: for it, and the most dangerous thing we could do 594 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 2: is forget five away from seven, all the ins. 595 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 1: And the ouse. It's the bizz with business favor. Take 596 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,399 Speaker 1: your business productivity to the next level. 597 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 2: Right the OECD, you've come to the party, and I 598 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 2: use the word party fairly loosely this morning, because they've 599 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 2: issued their latest Global Growth reporter and Trump's basically ruined it. 600 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:56,639 Speaker 2: Canada and Mexico biggest impact forecasters are down more than 601 00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 2: halved Canada's growth outlook for the year and next. Before 602 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 2: the tariffs, they were predicting growth of two percent for 603 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 2: both years. That's down to zero point seven percent for 604 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 2: each year. Mexico was thinking they would grow one point 605 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:12,199 Speaker 2: two and one point six. Now they're expected to contract 606 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 2: one point three this year and another zero point six 607 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 2: next year, so they're in trouble. So basically from positive 608 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 2: to negative. US has hit as well. Their growth goes 609 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,439 Speaker 2: from two point four to two point one. This is 610 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 2: going to go really well for the midterms, isn't it. 611 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 2: How's he going to explain this to all the apoplectic 612 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 2: Republicans who are back in their states, going, what's happened 613 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 2: to the economy? Donald? Anyway? So that's dropped to two 614 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 2: point two and one point six. China, they don't care. 615 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 2: They've increased their forecast slightly four point eight. Mind, yet 616 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 2: it ain't what it was. For the world generally, growth 617 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 2: is going to slow from three point two to three 618 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 2: point one. It's also previously forecast global inflation at three 619 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 2: point five that's now at three point eight. So this 620 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:58,479 Speaker 2: is against everything Donald said. So what Donald said was 621 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 2: prices go down up. None of this is inflationary. It's 622 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 2: just a little short term thing. It's just a little 623 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 2: short term thing. No one's going to notice. It's not 624 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 2: going to be a problem. As for that idiot Lutnik, 625 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 2: there won't be no recession. There's not going to be 626 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 2: a recession. Never going to be a recession. Wrong. So 627 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 2: the good news here while we wait for the impact 628 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 2: on tariffs in this particular part of the world, is 629 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 2: Daria coming to the party yet again. So we're already. 630 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 2: So what traditionally happens is that you have a really 631 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 2: good year, which we're having. We're in the teens by 632 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 2: way of a payout and the dividends up around the 633 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 2: seventy cent mark, and then you have a sort of 634 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 2: a not so good year. But that's been going on 635 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 2: for twenty five years. Now, we're going to hear this 636 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 2: morning we're going to have a good year, and then 637 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 2: tell you what, let's have another good year. So we'll 638 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 2: give you the numbers for you after the news here 639 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 2: a news talk said. 640 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:50,720 Speaker 1: People, news, opinion and everything in between. The mic hunting, 641 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: Breakfast with a Vita, Retirement, Communities, Life your Way, news 642 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 1: talks head. 643 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 2: Be seven past seven. So the dairy story continues what 644 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 2: looks like a golden run. We've got new forecast this 645 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 2: morning from dary en Z telling us the twenty five 646 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 2: to twenty six season could be one for the history box. Basically, 647 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 2: for the last quarter century, you get a good year 648 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 2: yet a not so good year. That's how the trend 649 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 2: is gone. Darien Z had of economics Mark stories with 650 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 2: us Mark morning, Good morning, Mike. So what's happening into 651 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 2: the new year. We got supply demand balancing out nicely 652 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 2: and it's all golden rainbows. 653 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 19: It's looking positive. It's always a bit it's always a 654 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 19: bit risky doing a forecast and looking ahead into the 655 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 19: next season because things so change. But we've had a 656 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 19: good season to one we're currently in in terms of 657 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 19: the payout price, it's looking like the Spine de Marn's 658 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 19: in good balance and we are. We released our forecast 659 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 19: yesterday and we're looking at another payout average payout of 660 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 19: in access for ten dollars, which is always a good 661 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 19: place to be in. 662 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 2: That's the truth. Average average break even points eight point 663 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 2: fifty ish. Is there too much debt in deary generally? 664 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 2: I mean tens are big number you need and if 665 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 2: you need to eight to fifty every time you're asked 666 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:00,959 Speaker 2: looking for trouble, aren't you. 667 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 15: Yeah, it is. 668 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 19: So that's reflecting quite high high farm working expenses and 669 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 19: other debt repayment, interest costs, et cetera, which really sort 670 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 19: of spiked over the last few years. So while it's 671 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 19: a good return, it's a good income, it's undeniable that 672 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 19: the prices are still the expenses still pretty high. The 673 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 19: good news and that is we're sort of seeing some 674 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 19: of that farm price inflation sort of start to ease off, 675 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 19: and our interest for interest costs are coming down. So 676 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 19: farmers have been making repayments on their debt in the 677 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 19: last season or two, and we certainly encourage them to 678 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 19: continue to do so. So there's a good pay there's 679 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 19: a good story in terms of getting their debt levels 680 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 19: down as well, which is which has been a key 681 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:46,480 Speaker 19: issue in the last couple of seasons. 682 00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 2: You've got to hit around tariffs and what happens now. 683 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 19: That's kind of the sort of the warning signs with 684 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 19: any with any making any sort of predictions about the 685 00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 19: future is we just we just don't know. So it's 686 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 19: it's volatile on the number fronts. Dairy like all our 687 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 19: trade sector is kind of hugely exposed to what happens 688 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 19: offshore and things outside of the farmer's control. So yeah, 689 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 19: the tariff discussion is of concern because so many things 690 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,719 Speaker 19: could go, could go, could go pear shaped, or there 691 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 19: could be opportunities in there in terms of other people's 692 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 19: strife as well. So it's really hard to say at 693 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 19: the stage. 694 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 2: About China, isn't it. And I'm looking yet again at 695 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:30,320 Speaker 2: the Chinese wanting to, you know, just seemingly print money 696 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 2: and give it to everybody within China. And I'm assuming 697 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 2: some of that flows through to us because I'm assuming 698 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 2: the desire for dairy from the middle class is still strong. 699 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 19: Yeah, I'm in China's a big part of the market 700 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 19: and if they're in there buying it's that's what's getting 701 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 19: the good market concisions for us. So we'll watch that 702 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 19: and you know, the trade, the trade issues between the 703 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 19: US and China and Mexico and Canada with interests. 704 00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 2: Okay, good to talk to you, Marke. Appreciate the insight 705 00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 2: Mark's story Dairy and New Zealand Head of Economics with 706 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 2: US ten minutes, seven parts. Get I'm also reading some 707 00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:03,520 Speaker 2: good reading you be done on blueberries. I love blueberries. 708 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 2: Part of some blueberries the other day. Four thousand tons 709 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:07,800 Speaker 2: in this country from a thousand hectares. They're now looking 710 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 2: to Australia in South Korea. So things look bright in 711 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 2: that particular department. It ain't no dairy, but we'll take 712 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 2: all the good news. We can possibly get a new 713 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 2: player in the local body election game for you. This morning, 714 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 2: actor announcing for the first time they will stand candidates 715 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 2: come October. David Seymour's with us morning, Good morning, Way, 716 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 2: isn't this a big call? Do you need this headache? 717 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 16: It's not a headache, it's an opportunity. I've been a 718 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,120 Speaker 16: member of Parliament for a bit over ten years now 719 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 16: and I can't tell you how many of the issues 720 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 16: people bring to me. If I'm honest with them, I'd say, well, 721 00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 16: that comes down to your counselor it's your counsel that's 722 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 16: making that decision. But have their own elected body, it's 723 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 16: really for them. Of course, I usually don't say that 724 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 16: because people want their problem solved by the person in 725 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 16: front of them, but I just feel that if New 726 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:57,480 Speaker 16: Zealand has had people in front of them who they 727 00:33:57,520 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 16: know what they're getting because they're part of a brand 728 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 16: that the people who are committed to reducing wastes and rates, 729 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 16: helping people get where they want to get on their terms, 730 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 16: not socially engineering them in diciple ways. And believe in 731 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 16: universal human rights where we no longer divide people by 732 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,319 Speaker 16: when their ancestors arrive. Those are three things where I 733 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 16: think ACT has a strong brand. I think there might 734 00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,359 Speaker 16: be people in each community who want to stand under 735 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,880 Speaker 16: that banner and we'd get better local government as a result. 736 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 2: Why can't they do that as an independent? What are 737 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 2: you looking for? An independent or an ACT? Disciple? 738 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 16: Well, I think it's actually a combination of the two. 739 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,360 Speaker 16: Disciple is a strong word, but you basically need to 740 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 16: know what you're getting. 741 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 14: And often people will say to me, well. 742 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:43,439 Speaker 16: My council sent me the little book. I look through 743 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,000 Speaker 16: the names. I didn't know them, and I wasn't really 744 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 16: sure what I was getting, but I tipped someone anyway. 745 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 16: As a result, we end up with counsels that tend 746 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 16: to disappoint people. I think having a team of people 747 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:58,239 Speaker 16: under a common brand and with a common set of 748 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 16: beliefs on your council could actually restore some of people's 749 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 16: trusts and hope for what their council can do for them, 750 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 16: or in many cases not do, because I would say 751 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:08,560 Speaker 16: they're doing too much. 752 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:10,319 Speaker 2: Given there's a lot of councils and the fact there's 753 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 2: far too many councils in this country and far too 754 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 2: many council is. Do you worry about the quality in 755 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:17,879 Speaker 2: your presence branding wise that you go a bit thin 756 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 2: on the ground and you might find a few people 757 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 2: going rogue on you. 758 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:25,799 Speaker 16: Well, that's why I'm calling it an exploratory campaign at 759 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 16: this point. If we get people we think are solid, 760 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 16: respected in their community, who can stand up and do 761 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 16: the business for three years if elected, then we'll go ahead. 762 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 16: There's always a chance that we won't and then we'll say, look, 763 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:41,719 Speaker 16: we looked at it, but maybe people aren't ready for 764 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 16: this yet. 765 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 2: At least we try, all right, fair enough, Nice to 766 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 2: talk David Seymour, the act lead and more on this 767 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,279 Speaker 2: on the CRUs Hipkins Wellington debarkle. If you're not up 768 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:51,800 Speaker 2: on that, I'll explain very shortly thirteen minutes past seven. 769 00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 2: It feels like Sultan the win every time the mainstream 770 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 2: media goes to Hipkins for his opinion on everything, considering 771 00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:59,359 Speaker 2: the mess that you made of everything he touched. Mike, 772 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,800 Speaker 2: my relative small loan. This has taken off this morning. 773 00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 2: My relatively small loan. The COVID loan helped keep my 774 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 2: full staff alive. Two years after COVID, my industry did 775 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 2: not bounce back. I am now just a sole trader 776 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 2: with a thirty K loan. I can't pay it, Mike. 777 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,760 Speaker 2: Why aren't the mainstream media talking about these COVID loans 778 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:19,239 Speaker 2: and labor of buggering the economy? I don't know. I 779 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 2: don't follow the mainstream media. 780 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 15: Mike. 781 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:24,440 Speaker 2: They should double the port's CEOs. Fine, this is the 782 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:27,239 Speaker 2: Gibson case, as he clearly doesn't understand that someone under 783 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,840 Speaker 2: him died. Let me come back to that, because I 784 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:30,600 Speaker 2: disagree with you. 785 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:35,759 Speaker 1: Thirteen past the high asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on 786 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio powered by News Talks. 787 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 2: Atb News Talks will be Christopher Luxon out of India. Shortly. 788 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,359 Speaker 2: It's sixteen past seven. So Simon Watts, who's the new 789 00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:46,839 Speaker 2: Energy Minister? As a result of the summery shuffle. Of course, 790 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 2: he was given a briefing on his new portfolio. The 791 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:52,840 Speaker 2: SUS standard practice. That particular document has been released in 792 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:54,879 Speaker 2: the last twenty four hours. In a way, it tells 793 00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:57,280 Speaker 2: us nothing we shouldn't have known. We don't have enough power. 794 00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 2: Renewables don't cover the gap in the present point in time, 795 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:01,239 Speaker 2: and what's needs to take a long term view of 796 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:03,359 Speaker 2: all of this. Anyway, the energy resources are there right 797 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:06,879 Speaker 2: to see. John Carnegie's well us John Morning, Ye morning. 798 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:10,160 Speaker 2: He's been fairly bullish on his talk towards Gen Taylor's 799 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 2: and the plan selling and spot prices and stuff. Are 800 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 2: you're happy with what's being said? At least? 801 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 8: No? 802 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 15: Look, I think everyone wants and deserves an electricity market 803 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 15: that's as competitive as possible, So it's useful to shine 804 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:27,319 Speaker 15: the light every now and again and make sure that 805 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:28,440 Speaker 15: that's exactly what's going on. 806 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:31,279 Speaker 2: We're in a better place, or so the industry keeps 807 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:33,720 Speaker 2: saying this year than we were last. Is that luck 808 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 2: and rain or something more than that? 809 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:37,360 Speaker 14: Oh? 810 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 15: Yeah, No, Look, New Zealand certainly just doesn't have the 811 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:44,960 Speaker 15: natural gas needed to run our electricity system. And actually, 812 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 15: I think you said it in the intro. We just 813 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:50,400 Speaker 15: don't have the affordable alternates to fill the massive energy 814 00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 15: gap that we now face. And so we're starting to 815 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:57,399 Speaker 15: see elevated spot market electricity and spot market prices as 816 00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,319 Speaker 15: a result. And you know, the upshot of is that 817 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:02,440 Speaker 15: relying on the weather isn't a great way to run 818 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:05,480 Speaker 15: an economy, let alone an energy system. And correct, we 819 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:09,280 Speaker 15: can't keep on reaching from winter to winter without taking 820 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 15: some systemic action. 821 00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 2: Well, the systemic action comes from the power companies who 822 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 2: are had on the program, who say be patient, in time, 823 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,319 Speaker 2: renewables will fill the gap. Are they wrong? 824 00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 15: Oh, well, they're certainly going to help. I mean, we've 825 00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 15: kind of got an amazing problem to have. But what 826 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:32,320 Speaker 15: we do have is an overreliance on weather dependent sources 827 00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 15: of power generation that need to be backed by coal 828 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 15: or natural gas. And I think it's abundantly clear for 829 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 15: all to see that without new gas fields or new 830 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:47,239 Speaker 15: permitted areas for expiration gas and no longer fully the 831 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:51,359 Speaker 15: hydro lake levels as they should, and that threatens our 832 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:53,840 Speaker 15: economic resilience and energy security. 833 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 2: That's what I can't understand. So even if we all 834 00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 2: agree that renewables may one day be fantastic, and that's 835 00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 2: fine and dandy, right here right now, it's surely it's 836 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 2: irrefutable we don't have enough gas, and it's irrefutable that. No, 837 00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:10,960 Speaker 2: we may not like coal, but it's the answer. Do 838 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 2: people argue against that, Oh. 839 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:16,479 Speaker 15: Yeah, no of course, because we get some who say 840 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:21,840 Speaker 15: that we can have one hundred percent renewable electricity system, but. 841 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:24,799 Speaker 2: So does but we don't. That's the point. I mean, 842 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 2: we don't. 843 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 15: It's just not feasible. It's not feasible. Even the Climate 844 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:33,719 Speaker 15: Change Commission argued against a one hundred percent renewable electricity 845 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:38,360 Speaker 15: system because it is unreliable and it is too expensive. 846 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:41,879 Speaker 15: And basically, when the sun doesn't shine, it doesn't rain 847 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,840 Speaker 15: and the wind doesn't blow. We need a system that 848 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,799 Speaker 15: is resilient enough to fill the gaps, and that can 849 00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 15: only come from natural gas. And unfortunately, now. 850 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 2: Yes Cole right, your voice is being heard at the 851 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:59,399 Speaker 2: highest level so that something more sensible can be done 852 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:01,960 Speaker 2: as a post having power outages. 853 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 15: Look, you know, Minister Jant, Yes, we're working collaboratively with 854 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 15: Minister Jones and other ministers. You know, they are hard 855 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:12,359 Speaker 15: at work on you know, because of course, as I've 856 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 15: said a number of times on you show the problem 857 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,480 Speaker 15: with the New Zealand energy systems that because of the 858 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 15: oil and gas span of twenty eighteen, the sector now 859 00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:26,400 Speaker 15: faces massive sovereign risk, which means that investors are wary 860 00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:29,880 Speaker 15: of investing, and so Minister Jones and his colleagues are 861 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 15: looking at that and what's needed including actually, I see 862 00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 15: just maybe last week there was discussion about the Crown 863 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:41,360 Speaker 15: taking equity stakes, so investing in new permit areas to 864 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:45,960 Speaker 15: actually take back some of the risks and appropriately pushed 865 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 15: onto the sector. And we welcome good, we welcome those suggestions. 866 00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:53,960 Speaker 2: Good having the program as always, John Carnegie, the ee 867 00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 2: C A. I'll come back to the next half hour 868 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 2: if I get time. It's seven twenty. 869 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:04,920 Speaker 1: The Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, how 870 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:06,360 Speaker 1: It by News Talk Sep. 871 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:10,800 Speaker 2: Right.

This is where the old one net experts 876 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:23,360 Speaker 2: can help because they've got as sister company called Grizzly AI, 877 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:26,160 Speaker 2: and they've gone and built a safe and secure path 878 00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:28,960 Speaker 2: for risk adverst businesses to access the generative AI.

Everyone's 886 00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:53,480 Speaker 2: got a lot of questions around AI. They've got the answers. 887 00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,120 Speaker 2: One net, dot co dot inzet it is one net, 888 00:41:56,280 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 2: It's grizzly AI. They are helping you to succeed in business. 889 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 2: Oscuido sevent twenty four turns out, despite all that's been 890 00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 2: said about Wellington and is now infamous implosion led by 891 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 2: the inexplicably incompetent cencumbent, the Labour Party has had to 892 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,920 Speaker 2: extend the nomination process for the local body elections, if 893 00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,239 Speaker 2: you can believe it, because they can't find anybody who 894 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:17,719 Speaker 2: wants to stand for mayor. So several questions I would 895 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:20,080 Speaker 2: have thought come out of this one. This, by the way, 896 00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:22,959 Speaker 2: does not mean an independent or a more conservative leaning 897 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:25,800 Speaker 2: candidate can't be found and won't come forward and potentially 898 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:28,000 Speaker 2: sweep the whole field. But as far as the left 899 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:31,560 Speaker 2: are concerned, can we ask these questions, is the lack 900 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 2: of a candidate from Labor assigned that local body politics 901 00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:37,160 Speaker 2: is so doer so distasteful no one in their right 902 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:40,560 Speaker 2: mind can be bothered? Or does it say something about 903 00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:42,840 Speaker 2: Labour and its brand? In other words, the stench of 904 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 2: twenty twenty three nationally is still so bad no one 905 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 2: in their right mind wants to have a red banner 906 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:50,240 Speaker 2: saying Labour candidate, because no matter what they argue around 907 00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:52,879 Speaker 2: local issues, they will be inextricably linked to Central Labor 908 00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 2: at Parliament. Does Chris Hipkins actually already know this? Hence 909 00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:59,279 Speaker 2: is offer yesterday to back an independent? Or if you 910 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 2: are an independent, would you want the Hipkins backing at all? 911 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 2: Or could you argue the Green vote is so popular 912 00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 2: in the capitol Tory Farner is actually hot stuff and 913 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:12,399 Speaker 2: she is such a potential political force that no one 914 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:15,520 Speaker 2: from the left can overcome that sort of brilliance, Or 915 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:19,440 Speaker 2: can you argue Tory has a fantastic cheek in even 916 00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:23,040 Speaker 2: trying it on bystanding given that Wellington has become famous 917 00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:25,759 Speaker 2: for its shier shambles and she has been the head 918 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:30,439 Speaker 2: deliverer of that shambles, or is that reputation really only 919 00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,840 Speaker 2: outside Wellington? And enough people inside Wellington think Wellington is 920 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,279 Speaker 2: a rock star city and they can't, for the life 921 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:37,839 Speaker 2: of them work out what the rest of us are 922 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:41,319 Speaker 2: on about. But a simple question from an observer in 923 00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:44,880 Speaker 2: another place, grateful that this isn't his day to day reality, 924 00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:48,279 Speaker 2: how is it possible you can do what's being done 925 00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:51,760 Speaker 2: to the place and there isn't a queue left, right 926 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 2: and seenter lining up to put it right? How can 927 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,560 Speaker 2: you watch that and not want to do something about 928 00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 2: fixing it? Asking text and story. So the news or 929 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 2: development of this morning is Tony Gibson, who is the 930 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:06,960 Speaker 2: former CEO of the Port of Auckland, and he was 931 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,359 Speaker 2: found guilty and has been fired one hundred and thirty 932 00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:11,839 Speaker 2: thousand dollars and sixty thousand dollars in costs. The news 933 00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:13,400 Speaker 2: this morning is he is appealing it. This is the 934 00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:16,120 Speaker 2: death of the worker at the port. My concern about this, 935 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:17,880 Speaker 2: and the person was suggesting on the text that they 936 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 2: double the fine and people died, et cetera. I get 937 00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:21,719 Speaker 2: all of that, fully understand it. And this is the 938 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,080 Speaker 2: difficulty in talking about cases like this, because you're dealing 939 00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:26,759 Speaker 2: with the death and a tragedy, and in talking about it, 940 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:31,240 Speaker 2: that does not take away the tragedic nature of the circumstances, 941 00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 2: other than to say, you've got to be very very 942 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:37,399 Speaker 2: careful in law when you're looking to get somebody, because 943 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 2: if you look administratively speaking at the gap between the 944 00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:45,200 Speaker 2: person on the floor the factory floor, of the port floor, 945 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 2: whatever the case may be, and the person in the 946 00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:50,760 Speaker 2: corner office, there's a lot of people in between. So ultimately, 947 00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:52,359 Speaker 2: of course the buck stops at the top. We get 948 00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:54,400 Speaker 2: all that, We understand that, and we I think broadly 949 00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:58,120 Speaker 2: accept that, but do they get found guilty criminally? And 950 00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:00,239 Speaker 2: what happened to all the people in the middle? And 951 00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:03,920 Speaker 2: we just is it a bit sledgehammery this particular law 952 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:06,799 Speaker 2: hence the appeal and so there's precedent's being set on 953 00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 2: this and this is why we need to be, in 954 00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:12,680 Speaker 2: my humble opinion, very very careful. Stand by off to India. 955 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:13,879 Speaker 2: Christopher Luxen is. 956 00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:18,760 Speaker 1: Next Zarni's New Zealand's home for trusted news and views, 957 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:23,040 Speaker 1: the mic Hosking Breakfast with the range Rover Villa designed 958 00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:24,720 Speaker 1: to intrigue and news togs. 959 00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:29,120 Speaker 2: There'd be Greg Jolins, expat New Zealander in Britain these days. 960 00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:31,960 Speaker 2: A song and a chat.

How you 978 00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:15,920 Speaker 20: get delivery out of a team in your public service. 979 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:17,520 Speaker 20: So no, we connect really well, really well. 980 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:20,720 Speaker 2: How much time was spent on the FTA specifically. 981 00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:23,759 Speaker 20: Well, there's been a lot of time leading up until 982 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:25,759 Speaker 20: the announcement that I know Todd talked to you the 983 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:28,600 Speaker 20: other day about. But from our point of view, inside 984 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:30,840 Speaker 20: the actual meetings that we had, it was, you know, 985 00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:31,799 Speaker 20: we talked about it. 986 00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:32,600 Speaker 7: We know what we want to do. 987 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:34,520 Speaker 20: We both said to our trade ministers we wanted to 988 00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:37,560 Speaker 20: move as quickly as possible, and we said that in 989 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:39,719 Speaker 20: front of our respective delegations, just to make sure that 990 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:43,200 Speaker 20: the systems understood that we're expecting a response to be worked. 991 00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:43,800 Speaker 7: Through pretty quickly. 992 00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 20: So but you know, there was also conversations around the 993 00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:49,239 Speaker 20: broader you know, defense, we've got we've got a big 994 00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:51,040 Speaker 20: step up happening in defense and security. 995 00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:52,880 Speaker 7: We should be doing more work with India. 996 00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:56,360 Speaker 20: We're actually leading a maritime force at the moment with 997 00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:58,920 Speaker 20: India as our deputy and we've obviously got Ta Kaha 998 00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:01,640 Speaker 20: coming into Mumbail on the week as well. So you know, 999 00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:04,280 Speaker 20: we talked about the defense aspects, we talked about certainly 1000 00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:07,239 Speaker 20: you know, the commerce and economic aspects, but also there's 1001 00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:09,080 Speaker 20: a lot of people to people connection stuff, which is 1002 00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:11,799 Speaker 20: really important. They're very interested in. One of the things 1003 00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 20: we talked a lot about was actually sports. I mean, 1004 00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:15,360 Speaker 20: they want to make a pitch for the Olympics in 1005 00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:18,680 Speaker 20: twenty thirty six. They noticed that we performed really well 1006 00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:20,839 Speaker 20: through the Olympics on a per head basis, and they're 1007 00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:23,480 Speaker 20: interested in all of those sorts of things so as well. 1008 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:25,680 Speaker 20: So there's quite a lot in the people to people space. 1009 00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:29,200 Speaker 2: How much actual business will be done this week from 1010 00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:30,360 Speaker 2: the delegation. 1011 00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:34,040 Speaker 20: Well, that's quite a bit going on. We've actually we've 1012 00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:37,320 Speaker 20: just completed one day out of four. We've got another 1013 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:38,839 Speaker 20: day here in New Delhi and then we do move 1014 00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:40,880 Speaker 20: to a much more business orientation in the last two 1015 00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:43,840 Speaker 20: days in Mumbai, which is obviously the commercial capital of India. 1016 00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 20: But you know, I think the getting that you know, 1017 00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:49,560 Speaker 20: really economic breakthrough, I think and being able to kick 1018 00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:54,200 Speaker 20: off the FTA negotiations is really important. I mean this 1019 00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:56,680 Speaker 20: morning as I check in with the delegations each morning 1020 00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:58,840 Speaker 20: and get them to do a round table, and I 1021 00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:01,400 Speaker 20: was just talking to you know, Pan Pacific, and they 1022 00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 20: were talking about their wood products that are sold into India. Well, 1023 00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:07,239 Speaker 20: they experience a five to ten percent tariff typically that 1024 00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:08,800 Speaker 20: they don't experience out of Australia. 1025 00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:11,520 Speaker 7: Wine. You know, there's a whole bunch. 1026 00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 20: Of products, you know, apples that actually have huge tariffs 1027 00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:16,560 Speaker 20: attached with them and the Australians don't have it. 1028 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,319 Speaker 7: So you know, we know we've got work to do. 1029 00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:21,239 Speaker 20: There'll be some sensitive issues on both sides, but you know, 1030 00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:24,080 Speaker 20: I'm very comfortable with the relationship we're built that we 1031 00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:25,960 Speaker 20: can work them through quite practically. 1032 00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:28,560 Speaker 2: Where where does dairy sit or where will it sit? 1033 00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:31,280 Speaker 2: Or how do you handle it? Well? 1034 00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:33,560 Speaker 7: What we what we don't do is say we're going. 1035 00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:36,279 Speaker 20: To walk away, because that will be a hard conversation 1036 00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:39,200 Speaker 20: and I get that there's sensitivity on the Indian side. 1037 00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:41,240 Speaker 20: To give you a feel for it, Mike, about forty 1038 00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:44,760 Speaker 20: five percent of Indians are engaged in agriculture and about 1039 00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:48,440 Speaker 20: it's about fifteen percent of their actual GDP, so it's 1040 00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:51,080 Speaker 20: a it's a very sensitive political issue. 1041 00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:51,239 Speaker 17: Now. 1042 00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:54,080 Speaker 20: Having said that, we want to make sure that we 1043 00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:56,440 Speaker 20: do everything we can to advance dairy with India. We're 1044 00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:57,960 Speaker 20: not going to give up and have a mentality to 1045 00:48:57,960 --> 00:49:00,920 Speaker 20: say we can't even try, and that's been part of 1046 00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:03,319 Speaker 20: the conversation leading into the kickoff of these They haven't 1047 00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:04,000 Speaker 20: ruled that out. 1048 00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:06,799 Speaker 7: We haven't ruled it out, and we know. 1049 00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:09,279 Speaker 20: That'll be difficult, but you know, we're determined to try 1050 00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:10,640 Speaker 20: and find a way through it and do the very 1051 00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 20: very best we can from New Zealand. 1052 00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:14,080 Speaker 2: Is it possible it's a slow burn, so you could 1053 00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 2: do some sort of deal with dairy coming in later. 1054 00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:18,839 Speaker 2: Is that the sort of scenario you look at. 1055 00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:23,080 Speaker 20: Well, there's all sorts of options, but for us right now, 1056 00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:24,920 Speaker 20: I do actually want to push on and do the 1057 00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:26,960 Speaker 20: very very best that we can do, and I want 1058 00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:29,280 Speaker 20: to make sure that we get the best deal compared 1059 00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:32,600 Speaker 20: to any other country around dairy and we. 1060 00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:34,040 Speaker 7: Protect ourselves in that negotiation. 1061 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:35,799 Speaker 20: So I'm sure there's lots of ways we can play that, 1062 00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:38,160 Speaker 20: and there'll be some other asks from the Indian side 1063 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:40,319 Speaker 20: I suspect as well, and other things that will come 1064 00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:42,239 Speaker 20: up from our side. But you know, the key thing 1065 00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:43,680 Speaker 20: is I want to push on now and get this 1066 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:45,279 Speaker 20: thing resolved and done. 1067 00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:50,439 Speaker 7: What's the timeline on it, Well, I mean promise to Moodion. 1068 00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:52,680 Speaker 20: I didn't put a timeframe on it, but suffice to say, 1069 00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:54,520 Speaker 20: we made it very clear that we're expecting to make 1070 00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:56,439 Speaker 20: good progress on it through the course of this year. 1071 00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:00,719 Speaker 20: And yeah, I think actually frankly, given some of the 1072 00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:03,920 Speaker 20: work and conversations that have already happened, and given the. 1073 00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:05,640 Speaker 7: Relationships that we've got at the top, top level. 1074 00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:07,920 Speaker 20: There's no reason why we shouldn't have an expectation we 1075 00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:09,520 Speaker 20: should be able to try and push really hard to 1076 00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:10,839 Speaker 20: try and do as much of it as we can 1077 00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:13,279 Speaker 20: this year. But you know, you never can put a 1078 00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:16,520 Speaker 20: timeline on it. We will negotiate hard, they will negotiate hard. 1079 00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:19,080 Speaker 20: I've done a lot of business in India here and 1080 00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:21,200 Speaker 20: my past life, and I can tell you they are 1081 00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:25,360 Speaker 20: the most some pretty brutal negotiations. But it's really important 1082 00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:27,480 Speaker 20: that we do the very best we can. We secure 1083 00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 20: the best outcome we can. So it will take as 1084 00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:31,000 Speaker 20: long as it takes. But you know, to be honest, 1085 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:33,040 Speaker 20: today and our bilaterals, we were making it pretty clear 1086 00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:35,440 Speaker 20: to our teams on all sides that we wanted to 1087 00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:37,640 Speaker 20: get on with it. And that's really helpful in a big, 1088 00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:42,279 Speaker 20: large Indian system that's got to negotiate agreements with the US. Now, 1089 00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:44,479 Speaker 20: you know, we want to make sure the system knows 1090 00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:46,640 Speaker 20: that actually this is a priority for both prime ministers 1091 00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 20: and let's get onto it. 1092 00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:50,399 Speaker 2: Having said that, issul Vandeline you said they have it done. 1093 00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:52,840 Speaker 2: She thought by the end of the year, shouldn't we 1094 00:50:52,920 --> 00:50:55,319 Speaker 2: be aiming for that in that sense and states that 1095 00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:56,600 Speaker 2: and being a bit bold about it. 1096 00:50:57,600 --> 00:51:02,040 Speaker 20: Yes, that's my expectation privately, and I think that would 1097 00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:03,560 Speaker 20: be promise to motives and we might even try and 1098 00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:05,239 Speaker 20: push even harder. But you know, we will push as 1099 00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:08,239 Speaker 20: hard as we can to say, stay focused. We know 1100 00:51:09,480 --> 00:51:10,960 Speaker 20: you know what the lay of the land looks like, 1101 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,080 Speaker 20: given the work that we've put into before we even 1102 00:51:13,080 --> 00:51:16,960 Speaker 20: committed to launching these negotiations, so you know, we know where. 1103 00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:17,800 Speaker 7: The issues will be difficult. 1104 00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:20,840 Speaker 20: But actually it's about a mentality, Frankly, Mike, which is 1105 00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:22,760 Speaker 20: that you know, this is a country, you know, Zely 1106 00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:24,440 Speaker 20: needs to grow and then you get money into people's 1107 00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:26,800 Speaker 20: back pockets and when you actually have you know, we 1108 00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:29,279 Speaker 20: think in the six year period under previous minstratum we 1109 00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:31,920 Speaker 20: declined like seventeen percent with two way trade with India. 1110 00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:34,440 Speaker 20: You know it's two or three it's three billion dollars. Now, 1111 00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:36,719 Speaker 20: it's hardly anything in the scheme of the country, the 1112 00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:38,480 Speaker 20: size that it is, with the wealth that it has. 1113 00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:41,240 Speaker 20: It's our twelfth biggest partner, it's one point five percent 1114 00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:43,440 Speaker 20: of our exports and deserves to be much bigger than that. 1115 00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:46,400 Speaker 20: And we have to try and so but I can. 1116 00:51:46,239 --> 00:51:48,440 Speaker 7: Tell you, like we've got a great delegation. 1117 00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:51,080 Speaker 20: With us, and even tonight we've had a fantastic function 1118 00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:54,440 Speaker 20: with them, just hearing some of the excitement that they've got, 1119 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:56,400 Speaker 20: and whether it's in the services, whether it's in the 1120 00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:59,160 Speaker 20: sports world, where it's in the education world, even the 1121 00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:01,200 Speaker 20: primary industry is you know, we've got a lot of 1122 00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:04,040 Speaker 20: value added products and services that are unavailable here in 1123 00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:06,200 Speaker 20: this market. So I think there's lots of ways to 1124 00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:06,880 Speaker 20: skin this cat. 1125 00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:09,239 Speaker 2: Explain and you would be an expert in this area 1126 00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:11,799 Speaker 2: from a previous life. Explain to me. Given the immigration flow, 1127 00:52:12,160 --> 00:52:14,840 Speaker 2: particularly from India to New Zealand, why is it that 1128 00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:17,040 Speaker 2: air New Zealand doesn't go direct? Why can't I go 1129 00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:20,160 Speaker 2: from Auckland to Delhi, Orgland, tom By, Auckland anywhere in India. 1130 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:24,320 Speaker 20: Yeah, well, I'm pushing all the airlines really hard because 1131 00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:26,440 Speaker 20: I actually think you're right. I think we're are at 1132 00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:30,000 Speaker 20: a point where actually I haven't seen recent analysis. I 1133 00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:32,759 Speaker 20: looked at it maybe ten years ago, and I think, 1134 00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:35,759 Speaker 20: you know, the growth in the numbers of international tourists, 1135 00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:38,640 Speaker 20: international students membering every student brings in three or four 1136 00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:42,439 Speaker 20: other visitors in a given year there's a really good 1137 00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:44,560 Speaker 20: case to say there must be demands starting to build 1138 00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:47,120 Speaker 20: from at least New Delhi or Mumbai into Auckland directly. 1139 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,560 Speaker 20: So I know area lines on both sides are actually 1140 00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:52,239 Speaker 20: very keen to try and see where they can work 1141 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:54,960 Speaker 20: together to make that happen. But the major issue, to 1142 00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:57,120 Speaker 20: be honest, Mike, is actually demand. And you've got to 1143 00:52:57,120 --> 00:52:59,720 Speaker 20: make sure that you know, when you've got capital deployed 1144 00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:02,040 Speaker 20: with two big aircraft doing a daily service, you've got 1145 00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:05,680 Speaker 20: to cover costs. It's expensive, but equally you've got to 1146 00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:07,719 Speaker 20: have confidence to go grow this market. And this is 1147 00:53:07,719 --> 00:53:10,560 Speaker 20: a market where the middle classes are just growing at 1148 00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:13,360 Speaker 20: such a rate. I mean, Mody said to me tonight 1149 00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:15,920 Speaker 20: over dinner, he said, they need two thousand more aircraft. 1150 00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:18,960 Speaker 20: They started with seventy airports, they have one hundred and 1151 00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:20,520 Speaker 20: fifty and they're heading to two hundred and fifty in 1152 00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:21,760 Speaker 20: the next three or four years. 1153 00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:24,040 Speaker 7: So you know, as people are, but you know. 1154 00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:26,239 Speaker 20: Two hundred and fifty million people have been lifted out 1155 00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:28,680 Speaker 20: of poverty and as they go into the middle class, 1156 00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:30,600 Speaker 20: you know they're saving money for retirement, they want to 1157 00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:32,800 Speaker 20: go traveling, they want to make sure they invest in 1158 00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:35,040 Speaker 20: their kids' education, and so you know, we've got to 1159 00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:36,719 Speaker 20: get our share of that money. And that's why I think, 1160 00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:39,360 Speaker 20: you know, the time is right to revisit air routes 1161 00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:40,560 Speaker 20: and direct services as well. 1162 00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:42,120 Speaker 2: While I've got you and we had Peter's on the 1163 00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:44,719 Speaker 2: program yesterday, what's your expectation of the Peter's Ruby are 1164 00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:45,440 Speaker 2: meeting tomorrow. 1165 00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:49,399 Speaker 20: Well, it's just really making sure that we've got good 1166 00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:51,800 Speaker 20: connectivity into the administration. I think, as I'd said to 1167 00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:54,040 Speaker 20: you before, you know, President Trump and I've had a 1168 00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:59,400 Speaker 20: good connection Severrety Rubio and Peters have actually I already 1169 00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:02,160 Speaker 20: had a conversation and person. Now it's about putting that 1170 00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:05,680 Speaker 20: relationship together. And obviously Judith Collins has had a good 1171 00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:08,240 Speaker 20: relationship with Peter Higseth in a good. 1172 00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:08,720 Speaker 7: Call as well. 1173 00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:11,400 Speaker 20: So really we've set up as said system last year, 1174 00:54:11,400 --> 00:54:13,520 Speaker 20: if you remember where we said, we want the Secretary 1175 00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:15,840 Speaker 20: of State and the Foreign Minister have a formal meeting 1176 00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:17,960 Speaker 20: at least once a year, and it just means that 1177 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:20,560 Speaker 20: we cannot go into a period of time like we 1178 00:54:20,680 --> 00:54:23,600 Speaker 20: previously experienced where there wasn't a lot of deep connectivity 1179 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:26,319 Speaker 20: at the top to top level. And so really it's 1180 00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:28,840 Speaker 20: a good chance for those two to build a good relationship, 1181 00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:30,959 Speaker 20: talk about some issues in the region and obviously around 1182 00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:31,320 Speaker 20: the world. 1183 00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:32,759 Speaker 2: All right, go well for the rest of the week. 1184 00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:35,160 Speaker 2: Appreciate a Prime Minister. Christopher Luxon out of India this 1185 00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:36,200 Speaker 2: morning fourteen to. 1186 00:54:36,200 --> 00:54:40,680 Speaker 1: Eight cool The Vike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on 1187 00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:43,320 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio powered by the News talks. 1188 00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:46,600 Speaker 2: At be great interview with lux and Mike Hu's honor's game. 1189 00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:48,760 Speaker 2: We're lucky to have a prime minister's driving New Zealand 1190 00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:52,480 Speaker 2: on the global stage with an agenda of growth. Next text, 1191 00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:54,440 Speaker 2: What a load of rubbish all that was? So you 1192 00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:57,120 Speaker 2: can't please everybody all the time? Can you? Mike Luxon 1193 00:54:57,200 --> 00:55:00,000 Speaker 2: just instills confidence in what he's saying and doing. Good 1194 00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:03,080 Speaker 2: on Luxe and via durn Peters Vima who to no comparison? 1195 00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:03,279 Speaker 8: Mike. 1196 00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:05,960 Speaker 2: Can you imagine a dern being across all those topics 1197 00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:08,160 Speaker 2: he covered with the Prime minister? I don't think so, 1198 00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:10,799 Speaker 2: Thank you, Chris, Mike, good interview. Imagine that if you 1199 00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:12,680 Speaker 2: put all those questions to adourn or Hipkins, how do 1200 00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:15,400 Speaker 2: you think that interview would have gone? Christopher Luxon sounding 1201 00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:17,120 Speaker 2: like a very confident prime minister. This is where he 1202 00:55:17,160 --> 00:55:20,240 Speaker 2: excels so much more confidence in his voice this morning 1203 00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:23,440 Speaker 2: compared with his usual Tuesday Luxean's best in India. This 1204 00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:26,040 Speaker 2: is the stuff he really gets. Yeah, I think it's 1205 00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:29,160 Speaker 2: a happy place to be honest with you. Back to 1206 00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 2: John Carnegie, who was on the program earlier on this morning. 1207 00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:36,400 Speaker 2: He's part of the EECA, the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Authority. 1208 00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:39,879 Speaker 2: Now he's there at the request of Missus Simeon Brown, 1209 00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:44,560 Speaker 2: who's the new minister. There was some angst last week, 1210 00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:47,719 Speaker 2: driven largely by Radio New Zealand who seemed to fascinate 1211 00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:52,040 Speaker 2: with themselves with this ongoing thing the media does whereby 1212 00:55:52,160 --> 00:55:55,560 Speaker 2: officials give advice to the government and if the officials 1213 00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:58,600 Speaker 2: advice is not followed by the government somehow, that's a story, 1214 00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:02,200 Speaker 2: if not a scandal, assuming of course, that officials one 1215 00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:07,400 Speaker 2: know what they're doing, competent, have institutional knowledge, offer advice 1216 00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:09,759 Speaker 2: that you would even want to follow, or dare I 1217 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:11,960 Speaker 2: suggest that the politician doesn't have a mind of their 1218 00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:14,239 Speaker 2: own and have an agenda and a plan that they 1219 00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:19,960 Speaker 2: were voted in to enact. So he apparently Carnegie was 1220 00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:25,000 Speaker 2: rejected by the officials managing the recruitment process. In fact, 1221 00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:28,400 Speaker 2: he was rejected twice, first after the initial screening, second 1222 00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:30,600 Speaker 2: time after Brand instructed them to interview him anyway, so 1223 00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:33,440 Speaker 2: they rejected him twice. Now, under normal circumstances, I wouldn't 1224 00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:37,319 Speaker 2: bother with this, but having read the Deloitte's report into 1225 00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:39,520 Speaker 2: health in New Zealand, and having read the Roch Report 1226 00:56:39,640 --> 00:56:43,719 Speaker 2: into the public service in general, I am increasingly concerned 1227 00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:46,200 Speaker 2: about one the quality of the public service and to 1228 00:56:46,239 --> 00:56:50,799 Speaker 2: their political that they're alleged political neutrality. Is it not 1229 00:56:52,080 --> 00:56:56,160 Speaker 2: possible that they looked at this guy because they have 1230 00:56:56,239 --> 00:56:59,960 Speaker 2: a certain agenda And Carnegie's what you would very loosely 1231 00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:03,120 Speaker 2: call you know, well, he's pro power, actually likes to 1232 00:57:03,120 --> 00:57:05,360 Speaker 2: have the lights on, so he's a regular New Zealander, 1233 00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:08,920 Speaker 2: but he's not an idealist or an ideologue in the 1234 00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:13,280 Speaker 2: area of renewables. Is it possible that the officials managing 1235 00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:15,839 Speaker 2: the recruitment process don't like people like him and we're 1236 00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:17,320 Speaker 2: never going to put him through. If it wasn't for 1237 00:57:17,360 --> 00:57:19,720 Speaker 2: Simon Brown, he'd never be anywhere to see They were 1238 00:57:19,720 --> 00:57:22,120 Speaker 2: asked about it in Parliament last week and Simmingon Brown 1239 00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:25,040 Speaker 2: quite rightly said, we don't want everybody with the same 1240 00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:27,400 Speaker 2: view and it's not bad to have somebody with a 1241 00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:29,720 Speaker 2: different view, and what's possibly wrong with that? And if 1242 00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:32,480 Speaker 2: there's nothing wrong with that, which there isn't, why then 1243 00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:34,919 Speaker 2: is a minister rejecting a bit of official advice even 1244 00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:37,200 Speaker 2: a story a ate away from hate? 1245 00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:41,560 Speaker 1: The Mic Hosking Breakfast with Bailey's Real Estate News Dogs 1246 00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:41,880 Speaker 1: Dead be. 1247 00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:44,400 Speaker 2: Bye away from hate. So there's a report out yesterday 1248 00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:46,760 Speaker 2: from the Retirement Commission. Can I ask you this question, 1249 00:57:46,880 --> 00:57:49,320 Speaker 2: is key We saber or bust? I'm not in key 1250 00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:51,200 Speaker 2: que save, It never been in Keyy Saber, but a 1251 00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:54,320 Speaker 2: lot of people are. But for what end or to 1252 00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:57,280 Speaker 2: what end? And the reason I ask this is because 1253 00:57:57,320 --> 00:58:00,280 Speaker 2: the average and I think this is widely and the 1254 00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:03,160 Speaker 2: average amount in KEW savers thirty seven thousand dollars, which 1255 00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:04,920 Speaker 2: isn't enough to retire on. The whole point of keV 1256 00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:07,160 Speaker 2: saver is you have enough to retire on. I can 1257 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:10,040 Speaker 2: assure you thirty seven thousand dollars isn't enough to retire on. 1258 00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:14,480 Speaker 2: But they broke it down yesterday and showed us what 1259 00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:17,560 Speaker 2: sort of percentage depending on what age group you are. So, 1260 00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:20,000 Speaker 2: for example, thirty six to forty year olds, the average 1261 00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:22,280 Speaker 2: is thirty grand. So you're still young, you're still working, 1262 00:58:22,280 --> 00:58:23,760 Speaker 2: you've still got plenty of times, so not the end 1263 00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:26,720 Speaker 2: of the world. Fifty six to sixty sixty five grand. 1264 00:58:26,920 --> 00:58:28,720 Speaker 2: So in the ensuing twenty years, it hasn't really gone 1265 00:58:28,760 --> 00:58:30,480 Speaker 2: up much, and it certainly hasn't gone up to a 1266 00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:33,160 Speaker 2: point where you're going, oh, well, I'll be set, has it. 1267 00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:36,280 Speaker 2: In fact, there is no number here in any of 1268 00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:39,440 Speaker 2: the age brackets that indicates you would have enough money 1269 00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:42,640 Speaker 2: to comfortably retire in any way, shape or form. So 1270 00:58:42,680 --> 00:58:44,760 Speaker 2: my point is this, are we just a very poor 1271 00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:47,560 Speaker 2: country who has no money no matter what we're saving, 1272 00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:50,320 Speaker 2: and we're never going to get ahead, or do we 1273 00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:52,680 Speaker 2: have our money elsewhere and houses and things like that, 1274 00:58:52,840 --> 00:58:55,040 Speaker 2: and we don't really take qu saver seriously and we've 1275 00:58:55,080 --> 00:58:59,960 Speaker 2: never really put it aside, or the whole thing's way 1276 00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:01,800 Speaker 2: waste of time. The biggest numbers one hundred and seventy 1277 00:59:01,840 --> 00:59:04,720 Speaker 2: four thousand dollars, So that's a decent amount of money. 1278 00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:07,080 Speaker 2: Who's got that? People who are eighty six and over, 1279 00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:10,400 Speaker 2: which you could probably argue you don't need it for 1280 00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:11,000 Speaker 2: that much long? 1281 00:59:11,080 --> 00:59:13,680 Speaker 12: Is it just because Kimi Sava hasn't really been going 1282 00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:14,160 Speaker 12: that long? 1283 00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:16,720 Speaker 2: What twenty years how long you wanted to go for 1284 00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:19,080 Speaker 2: So you think in fifty years and one hundred years 1285 00:59:19,120 --> 00:59:21,800 Speaker 2: it'll be it'll solve itself. I would argue, I would 1286 00:59:21,800 --> 00:59:24,120 Speaker 2: start to and I'm not on a libertarian and I'm 1287 00:59:24,160 --> 00:59:27,040 Speaker 2: not into compulsion in any way, shape or form. But 1288 00:59:27,120 --> 00:59:29,560 Speaker 2: I look at the size of our program, and I 1289 00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:31,680 Speaker 2: look at the size, for example, of the Australians, and 1290 00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:34,160 Speaker 2: I know which one actually I would rather be in. 1291 00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:38,160 Speaker 2: And Singapore did basically the same thing. So ponder that 1292 00:59:38,200 --> 00:59:40,080 Speaker 2: where you and we'll have some music and some chat 1293 00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:42,800 Speaker 2: in a moment with Blair Jolins after the. 1294 00:59:42,800 --> 00:59:47,440 Speaker 1: News, setting me a gender and talking the big issues, 1295 00:59:47,760 --> 00:59:52,040 Speaker 1: the Mike Honking breakfast with Bailey's real estate altogether better 1296 00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:56,000 Speaker 1: across residential, commercial and rural news talks head be he. 1297 00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:02,080 Speaker 2: We have been, so you've been? 1298 01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:05,680 Speaker 4: Is anything wrong? 1299 01:00:06,200 --> 01:00:08,480 Speaker 2: It is seven past eight? Another respect playing the musical 1300 01:00:08,520 --> 01:00:11,280 Speaker 2: play for you. Blared Jollins as a musician sound designer 1301 01:00:11,320 --> 01:00:13,560 Speaker 2: as well. Among other things, he composes and designs the 1302 01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:16,800 Speaker 2: soundtracks for programs like pol Dark, Shackleton, Midas Man, and 1303 01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:20,240 Speaker 2: Alien b Predator. He's also performed and released music under 1304 01:00:20,400 --> 01:00:23,760 Speaker 2: the name El Hula. His fourth album, Little comment has 1305 01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:26,360 Speaker 2: just been released in his own name and Bled Jollins 1306 01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:28,240 Speaker 2: as well. It's very good morning, po Mike. Thanks for 1307 01:00:28,240 --> 01:00:31,120 Speaker 2: having me. Now, the el Hula, how do we explain 1308 01:00:31,160 --> 01:00:34,800 Speaker 2: that what's going on there? El Hula was actually a 1309 01:00:34,920 --> 01:00:38,000 Speaker 2: name of what was my sort of alter ego, so 1310 01:00:38,160 --> 01:00:40,200 Speaker 2: to speak, a little while ago, when I was on 1311 01:00:40,280 --> 01:00:44,120 Speaker 2: Boy George's label and and it was a project, and 1312 01:00:44,480 --> 01:00:47,800 Speaker 2: just recently I revamped it and we did an EP 1313 01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:51,720 Speaker 2: which you were just playing there. Yes, And actually el 1314 01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:54,080 Speaker 2: Hula I was a big well I'm a big fan 1315 01:00:54,120 --> 01:00:56,480 Speaker 2: of Elvis, but at the time I thought, well, when 1316 01:00:56,520 --> 01:00:58,320 Speaker 2: I've got my records on the shelves, I want to 1317 01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:00,680 Speaker 2: be near Alvis. So el Huda was a close and 1318 01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:05,680 Speaker 2: it worked. Actually, that's quite clever. You left how long ago? 1319 01:01:06,520 --> 01:01:09,360 Speaker 2: I left in ninety five. I went to the States 1320 01:01:09,360 --> 01:01:12,240 Speaker 2: for a little while, like busking, and stayed in New 1321 01:01:12,320 --> 01:01:15,840 Speaker 2: Orleans and went around the perimeter twenty six states. I 1322 01:01:15,880 --> 01:01:18,280 Speaker 2: loved it, and then I run out of money, got 1323 01:01:18,320 --> 01:01:21,320 Speaker 2: to the UK and I thought I'll stay here for 1324 01:01:21,320 --> 01:01:24,600 Speaker 2: a year or two, and here we are. And that's 1325 01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:27,800 Speaker 2: the way it goes. The story whereby the sound what 1326 01:01:27,840 --> 01:01:29,360 Speaker 2: do you call it? In the movies. What do you 1327 01:01:29,360 --> 01:01:33,160 Speaker 2: call it? Sound engineering? Sound design? Sound design? So that 1328 01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:36,120 Speaker 2: story whereby you want to pass the theater. So you're 1329 01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:40,000 Speaker 2: working in a cafe just off Sable Row and you 1330 01:01:40,080 --> 01:01:44,040 Speaker 2: wander past the theater with the sign for the job 1331 01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:47,520 Speaker 2: and you just walk in. Yeah, and you get the job. 1332 01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:48,960 Speaker 7: Oh, you've done your homework. 1333 01:01:49,960 --> 01:01:51,320 Speaker 2: You're dealing with a pro here maintain. 1334 01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:53,040 Speaker 7: Well, yeah, that's very good. 1335 01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:57,480 Speaker 2: Is that real? That is real? And it's really happens. 1336 01:01:57,520 --> 01:01:59,160 Speaker 2: I mean, it's so hard to get in that business, 1337 01:01:59,160 --> 01:02:02,800 Speaker 2: and people runners for years and they go to you know, 1338 01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:04,840 Speaker 2: go to film school and college to try and get 1339 01:02:04,880 --> 01:02:08,080 Speaker 2: into it. But literally I was I think I was. 1340 01:02:08,120 --> 01:02:12,960 Speaker 2: I was working for I was a coffee barrister and 1341 01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:15,479 Speaker 2: and I thought, you know, I really need to get 1342 01:02:15,520 --> 01:02:17,680 Speaker 2: something that pays a little bit more to help my 1343 01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:22,520 Speaker 2: music alone. And and I did have experience. I'd worked 1344 01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:26,000 Speaker 2: at Stebbings here in Auckland as a mastering engineer, so 1345 01:02:26,040 --> 01:02:28,320 Speaker 2: I did kind of know how to operate a little 1346 01:02:28,320 --> 01:02:32,160 Speaker 2: bit of a cat. So I actually walked in and 1347 01:02:32,200 --> 01:02:35,240 Speaker 2: gave them my CV and a week later they said 1348 01:02:35,520 --> 01:02:37,960 Speaker 2: will you come in because we had three people just 1349 01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:41,680 Speaker 2: they've been headhunted and they've gone to another studio and 1350 01:02:42,040 --> 01:02:43,480 Speaker 2: then and then like can you Yeah? 1351 01:02:43,480 --> 01:02:43,640 Speaker 19: God. 1352 01:02:43,760 --> 01:02:46,080 Speaker 2: The reason I just that question is is that seems 1353 01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:48,880 Speaker 2: to be a time and place type story of something 1354 01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:51,640 Speaker 2: that cannot be creating nowadays, and if you landed in 1355 01:02:51,640 --> 01:02:55,040 Speaker 2: London tomorrow, it would never happen. I don't want to 1356 01:02:55,080 --> 01:02:58,480 Speaker 2: discourage people try it, but yeah, I think it was 1357 01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:01,760 Speaker 2: pretty pretty I'm very lucky in the right place at 1358 01:03:01,800 --> 01:03:05,080 Speaker 2: the right time for sure. Yeah. Creatively speaking, what's the 1359 01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:08,960 Speaker 2: difference between sound design and a movie and the music 1360 01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:11,920 Speaker 2: you want to make? Are you doing it too for 1361 01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:17,439 Speaker 2: you know, description prescription? I would say there's these days 1362 01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:20,200 Speaker 2: is a real fine line between music and sound design, 1363 01:03:20,440 --> 01:03:25,960 Speaker 2: Like if I, for an example, the late Johann Johanssen, 1364 01:03:26,560 --> 01:03:30,280 Speaker 2: for say, his movie Secario's. I find it very hard 1365 01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:32,479 Speaker 2: to establish what is music and what is sound design. 1366 01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:38,360 Speaker 2: It's very tonal, it's not as harmonic, less melodic, but 1367 01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:44,200 Speaker 2: generally speaking, sound design is more organic and we capture 1368 01:03:44,240 --> 01:03:50,240 Speaker 2: sounds and manipulate them, but not so as to really 1369 01:03:50,360 --> 01:03:54,000 Speaker 2: compete with score, right, so they have to be slightly 1370 01:03:54,040 --> 01:03:58,640 Speaker 2: different so as not to be out of tune with 1371 01:03:58,680 --> 01:04:01,040 Speaker 2: each other. Is it a give or you learn it 1372 01:04:02,120 --> 01:04:04,600 Speaker 2: I think both. You know, I personally felt I had 1373 01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:09,120 Speaker 2: an affinity with it. Being a musician, there's definitely a 1374 01:04:09,160 --> 01:04:12,520 Speaker 2: lot of timing involved with sound design, knowing when to 1375 01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:16,320 Speaker 2: place sounds like when do you place the rooster crow 1376 01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:19,280 Speaker 2: in a cutaway? You know, how long do you wait? 1377 01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:22,720 Speaker 2: And when's that? When's that blast of thunder? And the 1378 01:04:22,760 --> 01:04:25,680 Speaker 2: distance just to sort of help and emotion. Is that 1379 01:04:25,760 --> 01:04:27,480 Speaker 2: one of those things? And the reason I'm building up 1380 01:04:27,520 --> 01:04:29,200 Speaker 2: to this. Do you watch White Lotus? Do you know 1381 01:04:29,240 --> 01:04:30,560 Speaker 2: White Lotus the television printer? 1382 01:04:30,600 --> 01:04:31,040 Speaker 8: I've heard of it? 1383 01:04:31,280 --> 01:04:33,600 Speaker 2: Okay, right, so it doesn't matter. So the third series 1384 01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:37,760 Speaker 2: is just out now. People are reacting to the music, 1385 01:04:37,840 --> 01:04:41,320 Speaker 2: the sound design. They don't like season three. It's gone 1386 01:04:41,360 --> 01:04:43,680 Speaker 2: because it's set in different place. First season Hawaii, then 1387 01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:46,440 Speaker 2: Italy and now it's set in Thailand. It's different, it's 1388 01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:48,760 Speaker 2: got a tie vibe to it. But people are reacting 1389 01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:53,000 Speaker 2: to it. Is it supposed to be just so subtle 1390 01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:55,560 Speaker 2: that you don't even realize it's there? 1391 01:04:56,000 --> 01:04:56,320 Speaker 7: Yes? 1392 01:04:56,600 --> 01:04:58,560 Speaker 2: Or can you then go wait a minute, here I 1393 01:04:58,600 --> 01:05:01,479 Speaker 2: am and suddenly that's when people reacting that you haven't 1394 01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:04,360 Speaker 2: done think it should be? It should be like Ringo 1395 01:05:04,520 --> 01:05:06,520 Speaker 2: star on the drum kit. You don't notice it, but 1396 01:05:06,560 --> 01:05:08,720 Speaker 2: it's there and it's solid and it's doing its job. 1397 01:05:11,120 --> 01:05:11,320 Speaker 8: You know. 1398 01:05:11,560 --> 01:05:14,400 Speaker 2: A very good example of great sound design is the 1399 01:05:14,520 --> 01:05:18,560 Speaker 2: lightsaber from Star Wars. You know, we noticed that. It's 1400 01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:24,520 Speaker 2: just really cool, right, Yeah, but you just accept it. 1401 01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:26,320 Speaker 2: It is what I'm saying with White Lotus that the 1402 01:05:26,440 --> 01:05:30,560 Speaker 2: news people are starting it jars. It just distracts from 1403 01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:33,480 Speaker 2: you the night saber thing, isn't it because it is? 1404 01:05:33,560 --> 01:05:36,280 Speaker 2: It is cool? But is it cool because it is cool, 1405 01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:40,720 Speaker 2: or we've just in retrospect decided it's cool because it 1406 01:05:40,760 --> 01:05:42,720 Speaker 2: could have been different. I think it really is actually 1407 01:05:42,760 --> 01:05:47,280 Speaker 2: really really cool. It's a cool sound that someone's made 1408 01:05:47,520 --> 01:05:50,200 Speaker 2: from like smacking a cable and then manipulating that and 1409 01:05:50,200 --> 01:05:52,880 Speaker 2: putting it through lots of guitar pitals or something. It's 1410 01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:54,360 Speaker 2: so true. Now, what are you going to play for 1411 01:05:54,440 --> 01:05:56,360 Speaker 2: us after the break? I'm going to play a song 1412 01:05:56,480 --> 01:05:58,720 Speaker 2: called Wading in the Water, which is off my new album. 1413 01:05:58,800 --> 01:06:01,080 Speaker 2: I listened to that yesterday. Yeah, it's a good song. 1414 01:06:02,360 --> 01:06:04,520 Speaker 2: Are you going to change it up for the live 1415 01:06:05,440 --> 01:06:10,240 Speaker 2: acoustic gar I'll cut it down a bit. You know, 1416 01:06:10,280 --> 01:06:13,720 Speaker 2: I wanted to play Waiting in the Water because you 1417 01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:18,000 Speaker 2: know it's a song that embraces, encourage us to embrace 1418 01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:20,400 Speaker 2: not only the light and the joy, but the darkness 1419 01:06:20,400 --> 01:06:23,840 Speaker 2: and loss and grief, and lately, for me the last year, 1420 01:06:23,880 --> 01:06:25,720 Speaker 2: I've experienced quite a bit of that. I lost my 1421 01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:29,240 Speaker 2: mum last month, and you know it's painful. And I 1422 01:06:29,280 --> 01:06:32,400 Speaker 2: know that a lot of listeners will be you know, 1423 01:06:32,480 --> 01:06:34,240 Speaker 2: have gone through it or going through it, So you 1424 01:06:34,240 --> 01:06:36,760 Speaker 2: know this one's for all of us. Okay, take a 1425 01:06:36,760 --> 01:06:39,160 Speaker 2: brief break, Get your guitar. Is that get you Harmonica? 1426 01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:41,360 Speaker 2: Get thee and we're more in a moment. It is 1427 01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:42,400 Speaker 2: thirteen minutes past eight. 1428 01:06:42,400 --> 01:06:48,400 Speaker 1: Blair Jolins the Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, 1429 01:06:48,680 --> 01:06:49,840 Speaker 1: part by News Talk. 1430 01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:53,240 Speaker 2: Zippy Use talks me sixteen past eight.

The song is wading 1432 01:06:57,520 --> 01:06:58,080 Speaker 2: in the water. 1433 01:07:00,080 --> 01:07:16,480 Speaker 4: Mh, We're gone, little Souldier, were saved. 1434 01:07:17,000 --> 01:07:17,840 Speaker 6: I free. 1435 01:07:20,600 --> 01:07:20,800 Speaker 8: Well. 1436 01:07:20,800 --> 01:07:26,120 Speaker 4: I would long just to hold you for all the 1437 01:07:26,280 --> 01:07:27,840 Speaker 4: waves and the sea. 1438 01:07:29,560 --> 01:07:37,120 Speaker 21: Still I look through the bottle.

I've averaged close 1485 01:11:44,600 --> 01:11:47,400 Speaker 2: to twenty percent return on my money with my KEYW Saber. 1486 01:11:47,400 --> 01:11:49,200 Speaker 2: I'm sitting on about two d and sixty thousand dollars. 1487 01:11:49,240 --> 01:11:51,479 Speaker 2: You write yourself with the numbers, your precious National Party 1488 01:11:51,520 --> 01:11:54,040 Speaker 2: have not made an abysmal decision to drop the superannuation 1489 01:11:54,120 --> 01:11:57,680 Speaker 2: scheme in the seventies. Ah, very good point. So the 1490 01:11:57,760 --> 01:12:00,719 Speaker 2: problem with governments, and this is no different key we Saber, 1491 01:12:01,240 --> 01:12:03,799 Speaker 2: is that really should be sort of reliant on yourself 1492 01:12:03,840 --> 01:12:05,920 Speaker 2: and solved your own problem. But you're two sixty. My 1493 01:12:06,040 --> 01:12:08,160 Speaker 2: point in telling these numbers, or giving these numbers to 1494 01:12:08,240 --> 01:12:10,720 Speaker 2: you from the Retirement Commission is virtually no one's got 1495 01:12:10,720 --> 01:12:13,200 Speaker 2: two hundred and sixty thousand dollars. You're an outlier. Your 1496 01:12:13,240 --> 01:12:16,160 Speaker 2: twenty percent is unusual. Your contribution is you know, one 1497 01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:19,720 Speaker 2: on one hundred. Most people in age brackets have ten 1498 01:12:19,840 --> 01:12:22,719 Speaker 2: twenty thirty thousand dollars the average amount of thirty thousand dollars. 1499 01:12:23,120 --> 01:12:27,880 Speaker 2: If the idea was to save for retirement. My argument 1500 01:12:28,000 --> 01:12:30,280 Speaker 2: is from the numbers, it isn't working. 1501 01:12:30,439 --> 01:12:30,559 Speaker 5: Now. 1502 01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:34,200 Speaker 2: You're right. And of course this very current QI Saber scheme, 1503 01:12:34,240 --> 01:12:35,880 Speaker 2: which came into two thousand and seven, by the way, 1504 01:12:35,920 --> 01:12:38,840 Speaker 2: it is twenty years older they'reabout, has been marched with 1505 01:12:39,200 --> 01:12:42,320 Speaker 2: by various governments as regards government contributions and whether we 1506 01:12:42,360 --> 01:12:44,479 Speaker 2: should be you know, they're looking currently at putting more 1507 01:12:44,479 --> 01:12:46,559 Speaker 2: and and so on and so forth. My argument has 1508 01:12:46,600 --> 01:12:49,000 Speaker 2: always been, if you want to sort your retirement out, 1509 01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:51,760 Speaker 2: the last person you want to be relying on is 1510 01:12:51,840 --> 01:12:53,320 Speaker 2: the government. At the end of the day, Mike, A 1511 01:12:53,360 --> 01:12:55,960 Speaker 2: lot of people love like White Lotus series three. Music 1512 01:12:56,120 --> 01:13:00,920 Speaker 2: is great. Casting is excellent, a slow build with tension. Chao, Justine, 1513 01:13:00,960 --> 01:13:04,760 Speaker 2: you're right, but people don't like the music. That's become 1514 01:13:04,920 --> 01:13:07,800 Speaker 2: quite a thing internationally with people reacting to the music. 1515 01:13:08,200 --> 01:13:10,679 Speaker 2: Casting is excellent. You're one hundred percent. And Sam Rockwell 1516 01:13:10,760 --> 01:13:13,879 Speaker 2: turned up in episode four, and that's got everyone.

It's dropped by eight thousand in the last 1553 01:15:04,479 --> 01:15:06,559 Speaker 2: two weeks. By the time I retire, I'll have around 1554 01:15:06,600 --> 01:15:09,360 Speaker 2: three fifty to four hundred, enough to supplement my super 1555 01:15:09,439 --> 01:15:11,160 Speaker 2: for a great number of years, so I can put 1556 01:15:11,200 --> 01:15:13,719 Speaker 2: my rate power insurance SMA blah blah blah blah, et cetera. 1557 01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:15,599 Speaker 2: So yeah, if you end up with three fifty four 1558 01:15:15,680 --> 01:15:19,320 Speaker 2: hundred thousand dollars. The boss was justin here bending our 1559 01:15:19,400 --> 01:15:22,000 Speaker 2: ear about this, so he makes a not unreasonable point. 1560 01:15:22,760 --> 01:15:24,560 Speaker 2: Free money is one point which was part of the 1561 01:15:24,600 --> 01:15:27,760 Speaker 2: whole scenario from the start. Second point, and where he 1562 01:15:27,840 --> 01:15:30,240 Speaker 2: goes wrong is where everyone goes wrong with things. Like 1563 01:15:30,360 --> 01:15:32,559 Speaker 2: he we say, but the moment you involved the government 1564 01:15:32,680 --> 01:15:35,280 Speaker 2: in anything, they're going to mess with you. And this 1565 01:15:35,479 --> 01:15:37,840 Speaker 2: is simply no different. The other point he made and 1566 01:15:37,880 --> 01:15:39,840 Speaker 2: Glenn made it also, is that it is young. At 1567 01:15:39,880 --> 01:15:41,760 Speaker 2: twenty years, you probably give it a bit more life. 1568 01:15:41,800 --> 01:15:44,160 Speaker 2: But at thirty seven thousand, all the texts coming and going, 1569 01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:46,799 Speaker 2: I've got two hundred thousand, I've got six hundred thousand, 1570 01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:49,439 Speaker 2: I've got two hundred and seventy thousand. All of that's fine. 1571 01:15:50,040 --> 01:15:53,320 Speaker 2: But what was released yesterday from the Retirement Commission is 1572 01:15:53,439 --> 01:15:57,160 Speaker 2: not individual scenarios, but the collective, and the collective is 1573 01:15:57,280 --> 01:16:01,240 Speaker 2: only thirty something thousand dollars, and it's not that maybe 1574 01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:04,200 Speaker 2: in twenty years it will be maybe it'll be different, 1575 01:16:04,240 --> 01:16:06,880 Speaker 2: But I'd still argue that if you look at somewhere 1576 01:16:06,960 --> 01:16:10,560 Speaker 2: wealthy like Singapore or indeed Australia, the size of the 1577 01:16:10,600 --> 01:16:14,840 Speaker 2: superannuation scheme is yes, you put a lot in, but 1578 01:16:15,040 --> 01:16:17,800 Speaker 2: yes it's matched. And at the end of it, though, 1579 01:16:17,880 --> 01:16:20,280 Speaker 2: you set for life basically, so there's nothing wrong with that. 1580 01:16:20,360 --> 01:16:22,720 Speaker 2: Now Rod's disappeared off the face of the earth for 1581 01:16:23,000 --> 01:16:24,840 Speaker 2: some reason, which is disappointing because a couple of things 1582 01:16:24,880 --> 01:16:26,120 Speaker 2: I want to cover off with them, and I'll come 1583 01:16:26,160 --> 01:16:28,479 Speaker 2: back to them in a moment. But just before I 1584 01:16:28,600 --> 01:16:32,479 Speaker 2: forget Rockwell last Night on when I say last night streaming, 1585 01:16:32,520 --> 01:16:33,840 Speaker 2: there is no last Night in streaming? 1586 01:16:33,920 --> 01:16:34,120 Speaker 14: Is there? 1587 01:16:34,600 --> 01:16:39,599 Speaker 2: White Lotus Episode five? So Rockwell turns out. Surprise factor 1588 01:16:39,720 --> 01:16:42,080 Speaker 2: was Rockwell is married to one of the stars of 1589 01:16:42,120 --> 01:16:44,759 Speaker 2: the show, which I didn't know, not that that really matters, 1590 01:16:45,040 --> 01:16:46,800 Speaker 2: but I did want to alert you to the fact 1591 01:16:47,240 --> 01:16:52,280 Speaker 2: Walton Goggins, who is in the scene with Rockwell, can 1592 01:16:52,360 --> 01:16:54,840 Speaker 2: be found and I would thoroughly recommend it. If you're 1593 01:16:54,880 --> 01:16:58,960 Speaker 2: into architecture, which I happen to be. Architectural Digest do 1594 01:16:59,120 --> 01:17:03,360 Speaker 2: this thing whereby they do vlogs of people's houses. Sometimes 1595 01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:06,280 Speaker 2: it's a famous person's house, and if it's not a 1596 01:17:06,320 --> 01:17:09,439 Speaker 2: famous person's house, it's a really cool house. And they're 1597 01:17:09,479 --> 01:17:11,720 Speaker 2: worth wandering around and just getting ideas and having a 1598 01:17:11,760 --> 01:17:13,320 Speaker 2: look at how some people live and where they are 1599 01:17:13,360 --> 01:17:16,120 Speaker 2: in the world and things like that. Walton Goggins has 1600 01:17:16,200 --> 01:17:19,840 Speaker 2: got the most beautiful house in the Hudson Valley, which 1601 01:17:19,880 --> 01:17:21,840 Speaker 2: is a couple of hours north of New York. He's 1602 01:17:21,880 --> 01:17:25,519 Speaker 2: got one hundred acres. The house is modeled on an 1603 01:17:25,520 --> 01:17:27,960 Speaker 2: early It was built in the early nineteen hundreds nineteen twenty. 1604 01:17:28,320 --> 01:17:32,439 Speaker 2: It is modeled on a Scottish hunting lodge, so it's 1605 01:17:32,479 --> 01:17:35,320 Speaker 2: got that and he's remodeled the whole thing. And he 1606 01:17:35,400 --> 01:17:37,160 Speaker 2: goes through all the people that help them, and the 1607 01:17:37,320 --> 01:17:40,840 Speaker 2: lighting and the and the design and the furniture, and 1608 01:17:41,160 --> 01:17:45,200 Speaker 2: what he's got is just something to die for. But 1609 01:17:45,400 --> 01:17:48,600 Speaker 2: do watch so two things for you today. One Architectural 1610 01:17:48,720 --> 01:17:54,040 Speaker 2: Digest in Goggin's house to the monologue in episode five 1611 01:17:54,120 --> 01:17:57,320 Speaker 2: between Goggins. It's not really Goggins. Goggins just stares at him. 1612 01:17:57,439 --> 01:18:00,679 Speaker 2: That's half the brilliance of it. And Rockwell, who delivers 1613 01:18:00,720 --> 01:18:04,000 Speaker 2: one of the great monologues of all time. It's gone viral, 1614 01:18:04,160 --> 01:18:07,639 Speaker 2: it's gone off, and everybody seemingly is either in shock 1615 01:18:08,520 --> 01:18:11,240 Speaker 2: and or loves it. Twenty minutes away from. 1616 01:18:11,200 --> 01:18:18,840 Speaker 1: NME the Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, 1617 01:18:19,040 --> 01:18:20,400 Speaker 1: Howard By News talks. 1618 01:18:20,120 --> 01:18:23,120 Speaker 2: At be Mike. I've been working on retirement budgets. The 1619 01:18:23,160 --> 01:18:25,840 Speaker 2: biggest killers of health insurance, home and contents, insurance rates, 1620 01:18:25,880 --> 01:18:28,360 Speaker 2: and electricity inflation and the cost of living inflation. And 1621 01:18:28,439 --> 01:18:30,840 Speaker 2: that's even the case when you've got zero mortgage and debts. 1622 01:18:30,880 --> 01:18:33,080 Speaker 2: New Zealand super doesn't keep up with disaster. That's one 1623 01:18:33,160 --> 01:18:38,080 Speaker 2: hundred percent correct. Hence you should be financially stable by 1624 01:18:38,120 --> 01:18:39,840 Speaker 2: the time you do go to retire. By the way, 1625 01:18:39,880 --> 01:18:42,400 Speaker 2: what I wanted to cover off with Rod is forty 1626 01:18:42,439 --> 01:18:45,560 Speaker 2: two thousand people. This is the boat people problem. So 1627 01:18:45,840 --> 01:18:49,759 Speaker 2: numbers out yesterday. There are forty two thousand people waiting 1628 01:18:50,520 --> 01:18:53,600 Speaker 2: for an appeal. So the Home office rejects. So you 1629 01:18:53,720 --> 01:18:56,880 Speaker 2: lob up and you go hello, I'd like to apply 1630 01:18:57,000 --> 01:18:59,479 Speaker 2: for asylum please, and they go, well, don't be stupid, 1631 01:18:59,520 --> 01:19:01,439 Speaker 2: forget it, and you go right, I've got a lawyer. 1632 01:19:01,520 --> 01:19:03,679 Speaker 2: I'm going to appeal. So there are forty two thousand 1633 01:19:03,720 --> 01:19:08,360 Speaker 2: of those, it's a fivefold increase in two years, and 1634 01:19:09,439 --> 01:19:12,800 Speaker 2: forty thousand of them are still in hotels. So you're 1635 01:19:12,800 --> 01:19:16,200 Speaker 2: simply been shuffled from one government department to another. And 1636 01:19:16,280 --> 01:19:18,960 Speaker 2: I've got no idea how they how they get around that. 1637 01:19:19,400 --> 01:19:21,240 Speaker 2: The other thing was there seems to be a massive 1638 01:19:21,280 --> 01:19:24,120 Speaker 2: debate on at the moment. The government wanted to sort 1639 01:19:24,160 --> 01:19:28,800 Speaker 2: of ban smartphones and schools, but they couldn't get the 1640 01:19:28,840 --> 01:19:32,280 Speaker 2: support for it, so they sort of issued a sort 1641 01:19:32,320 --> 01:19:33,920 Speaker 2: of a need dick saying, hey, listen, can you do 1642 01:19:34,080 --> 01:19:36,640 Speaker 2: something schools about smartphones? They're not very good and if 1643 01:19:36,680 --> 01:19:39,040 Speaker 2: you wouldn't mind doing that, we'd really appreciate that. And 1644 01:19:39,120 --> 01:19:40,479 Speaker 2: they were trying to water it down. But then the 1645 01:19:40,520 --> 01:19:42,360 Speaker 2: conservatives have come out and say they want to ban it. 1646 01:19:42,439 --> 01:19:44,719 Speaker 2: So I assume between the two parties, Old Dole enact 1647 01:19:44,800 --> 01:19:46,920 Speaker 2: some sort of ban, or at least you hope they would. 1648 01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:52,360 Speaker 2: Meantime in Washington at the Kennedy Center, JD. Vants, who 1649 01:19:52,400 --> 01:19:53,960 Speaker 2: seems to have a lot of time on his hands. 1650 01:19:53,960 --> 01:19:56,200 Speaker 2: Because it was last week and you'll remember that it 1651 01:19:56,320 --> 01:19:59,759 Speaker 2: was post the Zelensky meeting. JD and his family jetted 1652 01:19:59,800 --> 01:20:01,960 Speaker 2: off to Vermont to go skiing, you remember that. And 1653 01:20:02,120 --> 01:20:03,800 Speaker 2: so he was skiing for the weekend and they had 1654 01:20:03,840 --> 01:20:06,400 Speaker 2: all the protesters there, and I thought, oh, yeah, fair enough. 1655 01:20:06,680 --> 01:20:08,400 Speaker 2: I wouldn't have thought, having been on the job only 1656 01:20:08,400 --> 01:20:09,880 Speaker 2: a couple of months, you've got time to go skiing, 1657 01:20:09,920 --> 01:20:12,720 Speaker 2: But clearly he does. Then this last weekend he went 1658 01:20:12,800 --> 01:20:15,120 Speaker 2: to the Kennedy Center for a show, and you got 1659 01:20:15,200 --> 01:20:18,439 Speaker 2: booed because a lot of people, a lot of artsy people, 1660 01:20:18,479 --> 01:20:21,760 Speaker 2: don't like JD. Vant anyway, speaking of the Kennedy Center, 1661 01:20:22,640 --> 01:20:25,439 Speaker 2: Trump's all over this like a rash, and so he 1662 01:20:25,560 --> 01:20:31,400 Speaker 2: wants shows. Trump loves shows. Come here and see a show. 1663 01:20:32,360 --> 01:20:33,600 Speaker 2: I was never a big fan of it. 1664 01:20:33,640 --> 01:20:35,479 Speaker 4: I never liked to Hamilton very. 1665 01:20:35,439 --> 01:20:38,360 Speaker 14: Much, and I never liked him. 1666 01:20:38,840 --> 01:20:42,360 Speaker 3: But we are going to have some really good shows. 1667 01:20:42,640 --> 01:20:45,560 Speaker 3: I always say this, Come here and watch it, and 1668 01:20:45,640 --> 01:20:47,920 Speaker 3: you'll see over a period of time it'll improve very 1669 01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:51,280 Speaker 3: greatly physically, and we're going to get some very good shows. 1670 01:20:51,560 --> 01:20:54,840 Speaker 3: The thing that does well are Broadway hits, and we 1671 01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:57,439 Speaker 3: have some beauty. I guess we have le Miz coming 1672 01:20:58,040 --> 01:21:00,800 Speaker 3: and we have some others, but the Broadway hits have 1673 01:21:00,880 --> 01:21:03,599 Speaker 3: done very well, so I'm going to spend some time. 1674 01:21:03,680 --> 01:21:04,519 Speaker 6: We have a good board. 1675 01:21:05,360 --> 01:21:07,760 Speaker 3: In the meantime, we're running the country and we're running 1676 01:21:07,800 --> 01:21:11,839 Speaker 3: it well. We have tremendous things to report tomorrow. Speaking 1677 01:21:11,960 --> 01:21:16,559 Speaker 3: with President Bouton of Russia to save some soldiers who 1678 01:21:16,560 --> 01:21:17,479 Speaker 3: are in deep trouble. 1679 01:21:17,520 --> 01:21:18,200 Speaker 8: They're captured. 1680 01:21:18,360 --> 01:21:22,680 Speaker 3: Essentially, they're surrounded by Russian soldiers. So I give it 1681 01:21:22,760 --> 01:21:24,200 Speaker 3: to you a lot of different I give you a 1682 01:21:24,240 --> 01:21:27,320 Speaker 3: lot of different things in one news conference, but it's 1683 01:21:27,360 --> 01:21:32,280 Speaker 3: a big deal. They're surrounded by Russian soldiers, and I 1684 01:21:32,400 --> 01:21:34,679 Speaker 3: believe it was. If it wasn't for me, they would 1685 01:21:34,760 --> 01:21:37,240 Speaker 3: be they wouldn't be here any longer. 1686 01:21:37,320 --> 01:21:38,320 Speaker 8: I was able to get them. 1687 01:21:38,320 --> 01:21:40,760 Speaker 2: And if they weren't here any longer, they presume it. 1688 01:21:41,400 --> 01:21:42,320 Speaker 15: You want to be pasking. 1689 01:21:42,720 --> 01:21:45,559 Speaker 2: Couldn't see any shows because I assume you can't see 1690 01:21:45,560 --> 01:21:48,120 Speaker 2: any shows if you did, so he's bringing shows. 1691 01:21:48,280 --> 01:21:49,760 Speaker 12: He's got a point. If everybody just went to a 1692 01:21:49,800 --> 01:21:51,360 Speaker 12: show instead of going to. 1693 01:21:51,400 --> 01:21:53,600 Speaker 2: A show instead of the war, we wouldn't be in 1694 01:21:53,640 --> 01:21:56,280 Speaker 2: the miss work. I mean, there are very few presidents 1695 01:21:56,280 --> 01:21:59,400 Speaker 2: who can handle that sort of that sort of delicate 1696 01:21:59,520 --> 01:22:03,080 Speaker 2: dance between Hamilton and the war BMW. By the way, 1697 01:22:03,120 --> 01:22:05,120 Speaker 2: thirty seven percent drop an annual net profit. Why am 1698 01:22:05,120 --> 01:22:06,960 Speaker 2: I telling you this, Well, because I've got a car theme, 1699 01:22:07,040 --> 01:22:10,120 Speaker 2: So thirty seven percent drop an annual net profit. Ferrari 1700 01:22:10,200 --> 01:22:12,760 Speaker 2: announced overnight forty percent of the new bars are now 1701 01:22:12,880 --> 01:22:15,840 Speaker 2: under forty. See those are people who got into Kisaber early, 1702 01:22:15,840 --> 01:22:18,160 Speaker 2: aren't they. You're into keiv Saber early. Next thing you know, 1703 01:22:18,320 --> 01:22:18,959 Speaker 2: you're thirty. 1704 01:22:18,800 --> 01:22:19,360 Speaker 4: Nine years old. 1705 01:22:19,400 --> 01:22:20,599 Speaker 2: You're buying yourself a Ferrari. 1706 01:22:21,400 --> 01:22:23,679 Speaker 12: Are you allowed to cash in your kii'sab for a Ferrari? 1707 01:22:24,120 --> 01:22:26,200 Speaker 2: You call it a house, So that's the first time, 1708 01:22:26,320 --> 01:22:29,400 Speaker 2: so if you're living it exactly. And then we come 1709 01:22:29,439 --> 01:22:31,519 Speaker 2: to my favorite cart story of the last twenty four hours, 1710 01:22:31,560 --> 01:22:35,599 Speaker 2: elon Musk. Unfortunately, the cyber truck has not gone well 1711 01:22:35,640 --> 01:22:38,440 Speaker 2: from what I didn't realize about the cyber truck. They've 1712 01:22:38,600 --> 01:22:42,839 Speaker 2: done a recall, another recall. No one recalls like Tesla, 1713 01:22:43,479 --> 01:22:46,000 Speaker 2: but they've done a recall on the cyber truck because unfortunately, 1714 01:22:46,080 --> 01:22:48,080 Speaker 2: what I didn't realize about the cyber truck is, you 1715 01:22:48,160 --> 01:22:51,639 Speaker 2: know how the panels they sort of like their joined 1716 01:22:51,720 --> 01:22:54,679 Speaker 2: together and they're not part of the car. That's actually 1717 01:22:54,760 --> 01:22:57,160 Speaker 2: the case. The panels are not part of the car, 1718 01:22:57,360 --> 01:22:59,600 Speaker 2: the frame itself. Normally in a car, what happens is 1719 01:22:59,640 --> 01:23:02,960 Speaker 2: that the bits get welded and joined to the front. 1720 01:23:03,160 --> 01:23:04,719 Speaker 12: So this is in this case, it's more of a shell. 1721 01:23:05,240 --> 01:23:07,360 Speaker 2: It's a shell exactly, and they stick bits on the 1722 01:23:07,400 --> 01:23:08,120 Speaker 2: outside of the shell. 1723 01:23:08,400 --> 01:23:11,080 Speaker 12: So this is every time we talk about Tesla and 1724 01:23:11,160 --> 01:23:13,680 Speaker 12: we talk about what our favorite model is. You know, 1725 01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:15,599 Speaker 12: the other day when they're all parked outside the White 1726 01:23:15,640 --> 01:23:17,519 Speaker 12: House and Trump was saying he was he was just 1727 01:23:17,560 --> 01:23:20,240 Speaker 12: going to have the He was just gonna have a 1728 01:23:20,320 --> 01:23:20,720 Speaker 12: Model three. 1729 01:23:20,800 --> 01:23:22,040 Speaker 2: Wasn't he three plaid? 1730 01:23:22,160 --> 01:23:22,360 Speaker 8: Yeah? 1731 01:23:23,320 --> 01:23:24,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, he should have gone for that. 1732 01:23:24,360 --> 01:23:26,360 Speaker 12: And I've always said the Models is quite it is 1733 01:23:26,400 --> 01:23:29,000 Speaker 12: not a bad looking car. But you've always gone cyber. 1734 01:23:28,840 --> 01:23:30,920 Speaker 2: Trucker, track truck, I thought, Simon. 1735 01:23:30,960 --> 01:23:33,519 Speaker 12: I always say it's the ugliest thing I've did it exactly. 1736 01:23:33,680 --> 01:23:35,799 Speaker 2: No, no, no, But in its ugliness is the appeal. 1737 01:23:35,960 --> 01:23:38,800 Speaker 2: But here's the point. Unfortunately, and I didn't realize this, 1738 01:23:39,040 --> 01:23:42,040 Speaker 2: they glue the bits on, so they're just glued. And 1739 01:23:42,120 --> 01:23:46,000 Speaker 2: now unfortunately the glues coming off, and especially they're found 1740 01:23:46,080 --> 01:23:49,240 Speaker 2: in cold weather. The glue reacts to the cold weather, 1741 01:23:49,360 --> 01:23:51,160 Speaker 2: and the punts are just falling off the cow. 1742 01:23:51,640 --> 01:23:53,960 Speaker 12: So they've had and that's before of course the battery 1743 01:23:54,040 --> 01:23:56,519 Speaker 12: has reacted with the cold weather and not lasting as 1744 01:23:56,560 --> 01:23:57,280 Speaker 12: long as it should have. 1745 01:23:58,000 --> 01:23:58,240 Speaker 8: Problem. 1746 01:23:58,439 --> 01:24:01,400 Speaker 2: But the cyber truck literally just what's that? It's a 1747 01:24:01,439 --> 01:24:03,200 Speaker 2: bit that fell off the car, so they glue them. 1748 01:24:03,200 --> 01:24:05,240 Speaker 12: I didn't realize that, So I always just assume that 1749 01:24:05,280 --> 01:24:07,080 Speaker 12: you were saying that you were one to one, just 1750 01:24:07,160 --> 01:24:10,799 Speaker 12: sort of as a as an ironic collector desire exactly. 1751 01:24:10,920 --> 01:24:13,599 Speaker 12: But that's a bit like a day meaden a self portrack. 1752 01:24:14,360 --> 01:24:16,040 Speaker 2: I'm not into just picking up the parts of my 1753 01:24:16,120 --> 01:24:18,160 Speaker 2: new car in the morning and the garas that's just embarrassing. 1754 01:24:18,200 --> 01:24:19,800 Speaker 2: That's just stupid.

They did a subscription thing. Subscriptions were 1784 01:25:43,320 --> 01:25:44,519 Speaker 2: going to be a thing for a while, weren't They 1785 01:25:44,640 --> 01:25:45,920 Speaker 2: were going to be like everything was going to be 1786 01:25:45,960 --> 01:25:47,560 Speaker 2: a subscription. I'm not sure it's turned out to be 1787 01:25:47,640 --> 01:25:49,360 Speaker 2: what they thought it was going to be. Anyway. For 1788 01:25:49,439 --> 01:25:51,920 Speaker 2: seventy dollars a month, I think they're on the wrong track. 1789 01:25:52,320 --> 01:25:54,360 Speaker 2: If I could just offer this piece of personal advice, 1790 01:25:54,439 --> 01:25:57,679 Speaker 2: I think you've gone too low because for seventy dollars 1791 01:25:57,720 --> 01:25:59,639 Speaker 2: a month, you get as many free drinks as you want. 1792 01:26:00,160 --> 01:26:01,880 Speaker 2: So you just do the numbers on that for a minute. 1793 01:26:01,920 --> 01:26:04,120 Speaker 12: For thirty got free, that's seventy dollars a month. 1794 01:26:04,360 --> 01:26:07,360 Speaker 2: Well, they're seventy dollars a month, and in return you 1795 01:26:07,479 --> 01:26:10,360 Speaker 2: get as many as you want. So under normal circumstances, 1796 01:26:10,439 --> 01:26:13,519 Speaker 2: at six bucks a coffee, you're getting maybe eleven twelve coffees, right, 1797 01:26:15,040 --> 01:26:16,880 Speaker 2: So if you go for twenty five coffees, it still 1798 01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:18,559 Speaker 2: only costs you seventy dollars a month. And if you're 1799 01:26:18,560 --> 01:26:21,120 Speaker 2: walking past this place every day, why wouldn't you, So 1800 01:26:21,240 --> 01:26:24,880 Speaker 2: you're doing thirty thirty coffees a month. Thirty dollars a month. 1801 01:26:25,360 --> 01:26:28,439 Speaker 2: All drinks are two bucks or fifteen dollars a month. 1802 01:26:28,560 --> 01:26:30,759 Speaker 2: All drinks are half price. So I think the seventy 1803 01:26:30,840 --> 01:26:32,519 Speaker 2: is going to bite them in the bum because they 1804 01:26:32,720 --> 01:26:34,360 Speaker 2: tell us this morning that the seventy is the most 1805 01:26:34,400 --> 01:26:37,120 Speaker 2: popular option, no kidding, I wonder why that would be. 1806 01:26:37,600 --> 01:26:39,479 Speaker 2: So I do two coffees a day, two express as 1807 01:26:39,479 --> 01:26:41,800 Speaker 2: a day, I would do twenty a month, forty a month, 1808 01:26:41,880 --> 01:26:46,880 Speaker 2: So forty coffees I would do for seventy dollars. I 1809 01:26:46,920 --> 01:26:49,120 Speaker 2: don't know there's money to be made there, but anyway, 1810 01:26:49,160 --> 01:26:51,240 Speaker 2: we wish them well anyone who thinks outside of the box. 1811 01:26:51,560 --> 01:26:54,200 Speaker 2: I am all over by the way, just quickly Liam 1812 01:26:54,280 --> 01:26:56,479 Speaker 2: Lawson I'm reading about as well as he heads to China. 1813 01:26:56,560 --> 01:26:58,760 Speaker 2: Two things won the race if you follow if one 1814 01:26:58,800 --> 01:27:02,479 Speaker 2: the race is a very good podcast, asked, They called 1815 01:27:02,520 --> 01:27:08,840 Speaker 2: him worryingly pereerz like, which worries me because they're not 1816 01:27:09,080 --> 01:27:11,479 Speaker 2: like that. They're not they're not extremists. They're they're very 1817 01:27:11,800 --> 01:27:14,280 Speaker 2: you know, they're intelligent people who study the data and 1818 01:27:14,360 --> 01:27:16,760 Speaker 2: the tracking and stuff, and so that that concerns me. 1819 01:27:16,880 --> 01:27:18,679 Speaker 12: Surely you're only pereiers like if you do the same 1820 01:27:18,760 --> 01:27:20,000 Speaker 12: thing for five races of the day. 1821 01:27:20,200 --> 01:27:23,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true, he's got one two. Zach Brown said, 1822 01:27:24,200 --> 01:27:26,439 Speaker 2: Yuki did a great job. This is reference to Melbourne. 1823 01:27:26,800 --> 01:27:29,439 Speaker 2: Yuki did a great job. He's probably the guy that 1824 01:27:29,520 --> 01:27:31,000 Speaker 2: should be in the red Ball if you look at 1825 01:27:31,040 --> 01:27:33,799 Speaker 2: how he's performed. But they seem to make some strange 1826 01:27:33,880 --> 01:27:36,760 Speaker 2: driver choices. Now that's politics, of course, that plays a 1827 01:27:36,800 --> 01:27:40,800 Speaker 2: lot of politics. But pressure is on. Five minutes away 1828 01:27:40,800 --> 01:27:41,439 Speaker 2: from nine. 1829 01:27:41,840 --> 01:27:46,240 Speaker 1: Trending now with the chemist Wells keeping Kiwi's healthy all 1830 01:27:46,360 --> 01:27:46,840 Speaker 1: year round. 1831 01:27:46,960 --> 01:27:49,800 Speaker 2: John McGregor's at the White House to celebrate Saint Patrick's Day, 1832 01:27:49,800 --> 01:27:52,040 Speaker 2: which is today, of course in that part of the 1833 01:27:52,080 --> 01:27:56,400 Speaker 2: world anyway, Trump calls McGregor his favorite Irish person, which 1834 01:27:56,439 --> 01:27:58,400 Speaker 2: is weird, per just this sort of thing. He'd say, 1835 01:27:58,479 --> 01:28:01,120 Speaker 2: he's seen Hamilton and while I'm at it, you're my 1836 01:28:01,200 --> 01:28:04,800 Speaker 2: favorite Irish person. So he's taken time, has mcgreggor to 1837 01:28:04,800 --> 01:28:06,080 Speaker 2: get in front of the leg turn of the White 1838 01:28:06,120 --> 01:28:08,240 Speaker 2: House in the press briefing room, where he got a 1839 01:28:08,240 --> 01:28:11,160 Speaker 2: little bit fired about and fired up about illegal aliens 1840 01:28:11,280 --> 01:28:11,839 Speaker 2: in Ireland. 1841 01:28:12,040 --> 01:28:16,400 Speaker 23: Illegal immigration rackets is running ravag on the country.

And the forty million 1845 01:28:24,800 --> 01:28:27,599 Speaker 23: Irish Americans, as I said, need to hear this because 1846 01:28:28,439 --> 01:28:30,479 Speaker 23: if not, there will be no place to come home 1847 01:28:30,520 --> 01:28:32,920 Speaker 23: and visit. You know, Ireland is at the coast of 1848 01:28:33,360 --> 01:28:35,120 Speaker 23: you know, potentially losing its irishness. 1849 01:28:35,880 --> 01:28:37,760 Speaker 2: Was he in front of anybody who was hearing that? 1850 01:28:38,439 --> 01:28:41,240 Speaker 12: It was part of the White House press briefing or 1851 01:28:41,240 --> 01:28:44,320 Speaker 12: it was with Carolyn oh Good and she was in 1852 01:28:44,400 --> 01:28:47,040 Speaker 12: a green dress.

Of 1863 01:29:12,960 --> 01:29:15,080 Speaker 2: course I think he's appealing there isn't he appealing now 1864 01:29:15,120 --> 01:29:18,360 Speaker 2: that he's appealing there anyway, favorite of Irish Pierson. But 1865 01:29:18,520 --> 01:29:20,960 Speaker 2: he hangs out with Dana White, and Dona White hangs 1866 01:29:20,960 --> 01:29:22,920 Speaker 2: out with Trump, and they hang out with Joe Rogan. 1867 01:29:22,960 --> 01:29:25,720 Speaker 2: They all hang out together and it's just a it's 1868 01:29:25,800 --> 01:29:30,040 Speaker 2: like the mafia.
