Speaker 1: Life from the Export Beer Garden Studio and brought to
Speaker 1: you by Export Ultra of the Bear for Here. This
Speaker 1: is the Agenda Podcast for July the twenty fifth.
Speaker 2: The Agenda Podcast, the home of Sporting Nonsense and clap Trap,
Speaker 2: brought to you by Next Sport of Culture.
Speaker 3: Good morning, Lane, morning, Good. Actually, I'm good.
Speaker 4: I'm coming out the back of a pseudo bender.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, he's still running the pseudo absolutely absolutely.
Speaker 3: Yeah. No, it's good. I'm good.
Speaker 4: I'm just waiting for the crash. It'll come eventually. Yeah,
Speaker 4: but that like any kind of drug fueled bender that
Speaker 4: eventually comes to an end.
Speaker 3: Yeah, all the all the chickens come home to roost.
Speaker 4: Speaking of which, Matthew Ridge come out on a podcast
Speaker 4: and admitted to his meth and fetamine use for two years,
Speaker 4: which shocks no one who lives in Auckland and has
Speaker 4: frequented Ponsonby Road during the kind of early two thousands.
Speaker 4: In two thousands, when Matthew Ridge was often spotted biking
Speaker 4: up and down pons B Road on his BMX shirtless
Speaker 4: with white headphones bluetooth headphones on and weaving between diners
Speaker 4: and cars at an extreme angle.
Speaker 3: And it was obvious.
Speaker 4: Then he was on the glass barbie on the Yeah,
Speaker 4: he was on the glass barbie.
Speaker 3: Everyone knews.
Speaker 4: It was a very myth related behavior. And he's come
Speaker 4: out in the potty and said that he did it,
Speaker 4: and he finally gave up when he saw himself on
Speaker 4: TV looking gaunt, and that has surprised no one.
Speaker 1: Nah, I'd like to think that there's someone who's opened
Speaker 1: and it would have been an actual newspaper and minute.
Speaker 3: What yet he played for the Warriors.
Speaker 4: Anyone who sat outside SPQR during the two thousands would.
Speaker 1: Have been if you were a sales rep in Auckland, Yes,
Speaker 1: and the two thousands totally.
Speaker 3: You would have known exactly what was going on there. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's some of the least surprising news, some more
Speaker 1: surprising news. We are apparently some sort of reputable sporting outlet.
Speaker 1: We told you some people are taking what we say
Speaker 1: into these microphones in this studio as fact.
Speaker 4: Well, we always said with sports adjacent, okay, so it's
Speaker 4: not whatever we say. And obviously we've got fact checkers
Speaker 4: out there, so we have to Yeah, you know, correct us,
Speaker 4: but we don't fact check.
Speaker 3: No, we'll look at shit.
Speaker 1: So don't come to us and expect to know, expect
Speaker 1: us to know actually anything about it. I was walking
Speaker 1: into the toilets yesterday. I was literally hand one hand
Speaker 1: on the door, about to open the bathroom door, and
Speaker 1: I was accosted by a journalist who shall remain nameless,
Speaker 1: but I'm sure he'll listen to it so he knows
Speaker 1: who he is. And he said, hey, I've gotten I've
Speaker 1: gotten approached about you guys twice this week.
Speaker 3: I was like, why what do we do? I forget?
Speaker 1: The one of them was about Artie Savier was I
Speaker 1: remember that are now? The first one was last week
Speaker 1: and we said Artie Savea is allegedly transferring to miner PACIFICA.
Speaker 3: We should have said reportedly. What's the difference. I don't know.
Speaker 4: That's why, that's why we are sports adjacent but all but.
Speaker 3: I would also say he fucking did you know what
Speaker 3: I mean?
Speaker 1: So anyway, yeah, we need to learn the difference between
Speaker 1: allegedly and reportedly. The other one was I thought, allegedly
Speaker 1: get away to anything.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's why I say, there's allegations that allegedly Manaia
Speaker 4: Stuart shared his pants yesterday, and you can turn and say, no,
Speaker 4: I didn't I was.
Speaker 3: I was only allegedly. Yeah, that's right. I didn't say
Speaker 3: you did. That's allegedly why I say it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've got reported.
Speaker 3: Well, that's reportedly.
Speaker 4: Why I say allegedly, I think reported more powerful than
Speaker 4: allegedly someone's reported on it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right. I'd like to think that it was real.
Speaker 4: Someone reports that you shat your pants yesterday, like definitely
Speaker 4: shit your pants mania, but if someone alleges, yeah, I've been.
Speaker 3: So.
Speaker 1: The other thing we were alleged to have done was
Speaker 1: on whatever day it was last week, when I said
Speaker 1: that we're competing in the Champions Trophy, so it was
Speaker 1: called the Champions Trophy cricket. Yeah, I said it hadn't
Speaker 1: been contested since twenty fourteen. Now I was reporting that,
Speaker 1: but and my source was Tom Latham, who said, I
Speaker 1: think they haven't done it since twenty fourteen. I actually
Speaker 1: think it's been done in twenty seventeen or twenty sixteen
Speaker 1: or something. And yeah, that was the other thing that
Speaker 1: this journalist had been approached about.
Speaker 3: What's fucking ages ago. Let's bet that's it's ages ago. Yeah.
Speaker 3: My point was fucking ages ago.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I'm I'm fine with that twenty fourteen, twenty sixteen,
Speaker 4: get the vibe that the Champions Trophy hasn't been played
Speaker 4: in ages. Also, if you're if your source is us, yeah,
Speaker 4: it's amazing.
Speaker 3: You've got some bigger problems. It's some issues going on.
Speaker 1: So, without any further ado, here's what may or may
Speaker 1: not have happened in the sporting world over the last
Speaker 1: forty eight hours.
Speaker 3: The Olympics. Yeah, we're about to say Olympics. I don't know.
Speaker 4: Oh, apparently we'll be Oh can you say Olympics in Zido?
Speaker 4: While in his Olympic Committee whatever have put an edict
Speaker 4: out saying that you can't. We can't post anything. Can
Speaker 4: say Amy Fisher wins gold in the kayaking allegedly and
Speaker 4: we put a post out saying great lay name for
Speaker 4: can't do it.
Speaker 3: We can't congratulate it.
Speaker 4: Nope, Nope, because that's us claiming the moment, and by
Speaker 4: us doing that automatically one hundred thousand people would subscribe
Speaker 4: to our podcast.
Speaker 3: And we would make millions.
Speaker 1: Oh and so we're taking the millions off the New
Speaker 1: Zealand Olympic Committee, who pay our athletes.
Speaker 3: Fuck all.
Speaker 4: I guarantee if we posted a congratulations post to Amy
Speaker 4: Fisher to Tom Walsh, we would get zero leverage and
Speaker 4: zero more listeners.
Speaker 3: You've been in our long meetings about this, haven't year.
Speaker 4: I have, and I've been arguing it constantly because some
Speaker 4: other podcasts just do whatever the fuck they want and
Speaker 4: nothing happens to them. But we seem to be under
Speaker 4: the microscope. I don't know why we're under the microscope
Speaker 4: for all sorts of things, but it's not.
Speaker 3: Going to fucking stop us, is it. I've seen Olympics, Olympics, Olympics, Olympics.
Speaker 3: There you go.
Speaker 1: You've also already congratulated Amy Fisher. She hasn't even competed yet.
Speaker 1: She will win the opening ceremony.
Speaker 3: Oh, she will win.
Speaker 4: She went by half a boat length over the goat
Speaker 4: in the boat. She'll get sill. It'll be a gold silver.
Speaker 4: It will be a golden shower all over Amy for sher.
Speaker 4: It'll be a golden shower all over Hayden Wild. And
Speaker 4: there's gonna be a golden shower all over the mate
Speaker 4: Hamish cure.
Speaker 1: Can we clip this for the commentator's curse montage for
Speaker 1: the end of the year.
Speaker 4: Don't just clip the Amy Fisher thing, Okay, because that's
Speaker 4: what some people would like to do.
Speaker 1: Is actually just just a part where you said Amy
Speaker 1: Fisher golden shower.
Speaker 3: Ye see we put that on social okay, and then
Speaker 3: it's just we go from the record.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so actual sport that has happened. I'm not home
Speaker 1: reporting this. I'm not alleging this. The Olie Whites one
Speaker 1: two one over Guinea. Why we call them the Olli
Speaker 1: Whites doesn't make sense to me. I hate the way
Speaker 1: we name our teams. I've said this so many times.
Speaker 1: It's so confusing. And then on top of that, if
Speaker 1: you forget the name of a team, now you're being
Speaker 1: accused of not giving a shit about that sport. The sport,
Speaker 1: it's like, no, it's because everything's black, white, tall short.
Speaker 4: I don't mind the kind of the black white, kind
Speaker 4: of ferns whatever. I just want some consistency across the sport.
Speaker 4: Like all blacks. It should be all blacks men, all
Speaker 4: blacks women, not the black ferns. It should be black caps,
Speaker 4: men's black cats, whatever.
Speaker 3: Black fern men or whatever. Yeah, just choose one. It's
Speaker 3: a bit like the chiefs.
Speaker 4: Just just be the woman and men's chiefs, not the
Speaker 4: manua or you know, yeah, just roll with the actual
Speaker 4: franchise and have men and women.
Speaker 1: The reason why it's called the Oli Whites though, is
Speaker 1: because it's an under twenty three contest, so it's like
Speaker 1: another variation.
Speaker 4: Yeah, twenty threes. Yeah, just call it all Whites under
Speaker 4: twenty threes.
Speaker 3: The New Zealand men's football team that are no older
Speaker 3: than twenty three years old.
Speaker 4: Five of them, what's an olie was only the first
Speaker 4: player to play.
Speaker 1: You're gonna hate yourself when I tell you this Olympic fuck,
Speaker 1: but I just think that I hate particularly The most
Speaker 1: egregious one is the Tall Blacks and we send them
Speaker 1: over to play against the USA and we show up
Speaker 1: and we're just like it's African American, look yeah, and
Speaker 1: we show up and we're like, hey, this is our
Speaker 1: basketball seaven that it's like not that at all, not
Speaker 1: that blair, to be honest with ya, We've probably.
Speaker 3: Got more of them than you guys do.
Speaker 4: Yeah. It's a bit like when the Black Cocks play
Speaker 4: badminton against Ken You.
Speaker 1: Yeah, apparently never actually their official nickname.
Speaker 4: I know, but it's just the fans adopted that one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, one hundred percent.
Speaker 1: The rugby sevens, the all Blacks sevens men's team.
Speaker 3: Yes, yep, that is what they called.
Speaker 4: Siege and just like just call the the Woman's seeing
Speaker 4: the All Blacks women's sevens team instead, we've got the
Speaker 4: White Fans women's seventh anyway.
Speaker 1: Anyway, they've won both their games, so the first one
Speaker 1: was a hiding. They beat Japan forty points to twelve.
Speaker 1: They then turned around and beat South Africa and nail
Speaker 1: by to seventeen fifteen. That means that they are already
Speaker 1: through to the quarter finals and we're still two days.
Speaker 3: Away from the opening ceremony of the Olympics. Yeah. It
Speaker 3: was a sneaky, wasn't it. It was like a pre.
Speaker 4: Olympics, you know, where they do it before the actual
Speaker 4: ceremony happens. Yeah, some stuff happens beforehand, it is. Yeah,
Speaker 4: it's a little bit before play with the sevens. In
Speaker 4: the football, Yeah, a little bit of leakage. Mainly to
Speaker 4: do with the team sports though, So it's yes, football
Speaker 4: and rugby.
Speaker 1: It's just because the things go on for so long. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I've said for the longest time, I don't think
Speaker 1: any sports should be in the Olympics if it has
Speaker 1: a judge, except for boxing. Is the only exception because
Speaker 1: you can't just have these guys fight to the death.
Speaker 1: You have to but like, definitely, but you have to
Speaker 1: put like an artificial finish line in there. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: I don't think there should be dancing, and I mean
Speaker 1: break dancing is going to be what do.
Speaker 4: You do with gymnastics? That's a good more it is.
Speaker 3: The core of.
Speaker 4: The Olympics is watching some asshole face plant on the mat.
Speaker 3: Oh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that there's definitely a part of the game plays
Speaker 1: in the game for that. But I just don't think
Speaker 1: a panel of who who knows gets to sit there
Speaker 1: and be like, yeah, that guy on just based on
Speaker 1: their opinion, you know.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't like watching sports like that. I also don't
Speaker 1: think that team sports should be in the Olympics.
Speaker 4: Yeah, like there's a lot of debate around that, but
Speaker 4: I mean, like the gymnastics, I've got to retire for that,
Speaker 4: particularly the horse you know, because there's a high risk
Speaker 4: that a guy is going to carstrate himself on those
Speaker 4: hand and the whipping themselves around like that. Yeah, that's
Speaker 4: probably my highlight of the Olympics. That's my highlight is
Speaker 4: just waiting for someone well to severely injure themselves.
Speaker 1: I believe that there are certain moves that have actually
Speaker 1: been outlawed by the Olympics and the gymnastics events. You know,
Speaker 1: the double bars with the lower one and the high
Speaker 1: one they flip around. I think there are a couple
Speaker 1: of moves that are actually banned because they're too dangerous.
Speaker 1: Which again, yeah, it's like, who are you to decide.
Speaker 1: It's like taking the shoulder charge at a rugby league. Well,
Speaker 1: you don't get to decide if these guys want to
Speaker 1: risk it, you know, yeah, let them do it, because
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what.
Speaker 3: We want to see it. We all want to see it.
Speaker 3: So oh yeah.
Speaker 1: In the football, by the way, the A Againdinans played Morocco, yep,
Speaker 1: and the game was suspended, so they were Argentina were
Speaker 1: up two to one. There was supposed to be fifteen
Speaker 1: minutes of injury time, and in the sixteenth minute of
Speaker 1: injury time, Morocco scored a equalizer.
Speaker 3: Oh the Macarones.
Speaker 1: So the place when absolutely ape shit people were invading
Speaker 1: the pitch, blah blah blahlahlah, because then var come back
Speaker 1: and said he's actually been off side, and so they
Speaker 1: and so yeah, that's when people stormed the pitch. I
Speaker 1: believe they had to wait for two hours to clear
Speaker 1: the stadium. They then said, actually he was off side,
Speaker 1: so now we're going to come back and play an
Speaker 1: extra couple of minutes of injury times. They came back
Speaker 1: like two hours later. This game went for like four hours.
Speaker 1: Who won the eventually? Is it Argentina two one?
Speaker 4: Because quite a big Moroccan population in France, so that's
Speaker 4: probably what.
Speaker 1: Yeah, either way around, Morocco won. Oh oh oh, so
Speaker 1: that's what. Yeah, that's why the Moroccans invaded the pitch
Speaker 1: because Argentina had drawn level.
Speaker 3: Sorry allegedly, Oh.
Speaker 4: The beautiful game on a beautiful game is it's a
Speaker 4: kind of shit that only happens in cricket. And also,
Speaker 4: I didn't notice that the Israeli football team women's football
Speaker 4: team had like an armed escort to their stadium. The
Speaker 4: anthem was booed, Yeah, it was all all go.
Speaker 3: I thought their army would have been pretty busy at
Speaker 3: the moment. Their friends had to the friend had to
Speaker 3: stump up.
Speaker 1: Speaking of drone strokes, there is in a drone spying scandal.
Speaker 1: This has been the biggest headline of the Olympics.
Speaker 3: So far.
Speaker 1: Really yeah, I mean so if you're not across it,
Speaker 1: what happened is our football ferns. I'm sure they called
Speaker 1: the Oliferns or something stupid like that. They're over there,
Speaker 1: they are training and they're playing Canada actually tomorrow or
Speaker 1: overnight tonight, out time.
Speaker 4: That's a good question. Is the women's team under twenty
Speaker 4: three or is it full strength?
Speaker 3: Oh? I don't know. A better sports podcast would know that.
Speaker 3: I think it's full strength.
Speaker 1: A New Zealand hero journalist to be accosted about this,
Speaker 1: but I don't know. Well, I think Adam's gonna do
Speaker 1: some research. You go ahead, Yes, So what it happened
Speaker 1: was they were training and they spied a drone hovering
Speaker 1: over their practice facility. The thought, what the fuck's they
Speaker 1: called the cops. Cops came, found the guy straight away
Speaker 1: who was flying it, arrested him. Then within the same
Speaker 1: twenty four hours there was a second drone and another
Speaker 1: person has been arrested. Both of those people have been
Speaker 1: sent back to Canada. They were from Team Canada. The
Speaker 1: coach of the Canadian women's football team has committed suppuku
Speaker 1: and fallen on his sword. He's out, he said, he's
Speaker 1: not going to coach for this next game. And one
Speaker 1: of the people that was flying the drones was given
Speaker 1: a deferred prison sentence of eight months.
Speaker 4: Yeah, for flying in a restricted area.
Speaker 3: In a restricted area.
Speaker 4: Assistant coach Jairsman mandate she's also gone.
Speaker 1: She going too, So they're both on flights back to
Speaker 1: Canada as hell out of there.
Speaker 3: So there's no rules on the age for woman. You
Speaker 3: are exist, that is, there's no place in the game
Speaker 3: for that contract. That is.
Speaker 4: That is a real waste, isn't it? Because I can't
Speaker 4: imagine they are the current Olympic champions Canada. Yes, why
Speaker 4: would they want to spy on I mean I could
Speaker 4: tell them right now. Stack the back. That's what New
Speaker 4: Zealand football does. Stacks the back, kick it to the
Speaker 4: in all grades and all genders. Yeah, stack stack the
Speaker 4: back and yeah.
Speaker 3: I hope it downfield.
Speaker 1: So but we haven't been in them since nineteen eighty seven,
Speaker 1: the other running champs.
Speaker 3: Maybe this is how they did it.
Speaker 1: I would say, if you cannot beat New Zealand in
Speaker 1: a game soccer football without flying a drone over the
Speaker 1: top of them, then you don't deserve to.
Speaker 4: Was Is there something else to read into this mini
Speaker 4: Was the drone actually spying on something else? Wasn't holvering
Speaker 4: around the showers?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 3: Okay, No, I'd like to steer you away from that.
Speaker 1: There's a track record here and I'd like to also
Speaker 1: distance myself from that as well. I'm sure they were
Speaker 1: just trying to check out the formations of the players.
Speaker 1: If you need to spy on the women's football team.
Speaker 3: It's probably not going to work out for you.
Speaker 4: Well, you know what, there's probably easy ways of doing it.
Speaker 4: There's probably volunteers within that stadium there that are helping out,
Speaker 4: that would have helped you out.
Speaker 1: Also, I don't know what are you actually going to
Speaker 1: glean like really that you haven't already seen.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that they didn't try in the last game.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're not going to come out and open the
Speaker 4: bowling with Deepak Ptel. They're not going to shock you
Speaker 4: like that. Yeah, that's all right.
Speaker 1: I just think like literally last week week before we
Speaker 1: were out at Eden Park before the All Blacks played
Speaker 1: against England. We're sitting in the corporate the big core
Speaker 1: box area, and all of we were seated at tables
Speaker 1: having lunch. All of the curtains behind us were drawn
Speaker 1: and we were told we were not allowed to take
Speaker 1: photos of the All Blacks training out of the field.
Speaker 1: We weren't allowed to watch, and it was enforced. There
Speaker 1: were people standing there. If you were watching out the window,
Speaker 1: they'd come and usher you away. They were reluctant though,
Speaker 1: because I was on I was on my phone. She guys,
Speaker 1: you got to move.
Speaker 3: I said, I shut up.
Speaker 4: I've just got to do some work. And she's like,
Speaker 4: you got to move, and I so did. I did it,
Speaker 4: but that was stupid. It was like a captain's run
Speaker 4: and they do it in front of a thousand kids parents.
Speaker 1: And I filmed the whole thing and send it through
Speaker 1: to the English camp and they still lost.
Speaker 3: Still fucked up, So you know, what's the point of
Speaker 3: all of that.
Speaker 1: But I'm a big fan of this drone spying scanner
Speaker 1: was my favorite kind of thing because we were just
Speaker 1: in Paris last year.
Speaker 4: They don't fuck around with this kind of stuff. No,
Speaker 4: and security wise, they don't pass around either. No, so
Speaker 4: they are heavily armed to the teeth.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, patience. It's a wonder they were. Because the
Speaker 1: other thing is you don't know that there wasn't a
Speaker 1: bomb in there, you know, like.
Speaker 3: Price it and shoot it down. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: I know that airports employee hawks and eagles and shit
Speaker 1: to stop people from flying drones nearby. So I don't know,
Speaker 1: maybe maybe we're looking to unleashing a few hast eagles
Speaker 1: around there.
Speaker 3: Do they do that? Doesn't that to chase the way
Speaker 3: the other birds?
Speaker 1: They do that at airports to chase, Yeah, to chase
Speaker 1: some birds way, but yeah, some have started deploying them
Speaker 1: to attack humans, attack drones.
Speaker 3: Take drones.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's that's quite gatsy because some drones are quite big.
Speaker 3: It could chop upper an eagle.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then just get another one as long as
Speaker 1: you've got a permit. True, we've been sending animals out
Speaker 1: to do our duty work for years, that's true. Actually,
Speaker 1: the Russians were strapping bombs to beluga whales, apparently allegedly reportedly.
Speaker 1: All right, we have to take quick breaks before we
Speaker 1: do a quick reminder about the Helenstein's VP competition we're
Speaker 1: running at the moment. We want to hook you up
Speaker 1: with an exclusive opportunity to win a VIP Warrior's experience.
Speaker 1: You will score tickets, money for food and beverages or whatever.
Speaker 1: You want to spend that money on plus vouchers to
Speaker 1: be kitted out by the legends at Hellenstein's just like we.
Speaker 3: Are right now to get in the draw.
Speaker 1: Texts VIP to three two three six and you could
Speaker 1: be a VIP at the Warriors thanks to the ACC
Speaker 1: and Helen Stein's brother's quick break will be right back.
Speaker 3: All right lane. It is a Thursday. This week is
Speaker 3: absolutely flown by.
Speaker 1: That tends to happen when you don't sleep all week
Speaker 1: because you asked jest to vunger rears and rehappen he isn't.
Speaker 3: Or if you're on sidie for dreams or sleep still
Speaker 3: next week.
Speaker 1: But because it is Thursday, we're going to go for
Speaker 1: a throwback Thursday. And I thought, because the Olympics kicking
Speaker 1: off this week, I'd like to throw it back to
Speaker 1: our most successful Olympics. Yes, which by some metrics was
Speaker 1: the most recent ones in Tokyo, and by other metrics
Speaker 1: it was the one that we're going to go for because.
Speaker 3: We don't want to throw it back to just like
Speaker 3: three years ago. Nah, and we're not interested in bronzes.
Speaker 1: No, Well that's the thing. So the most successful Olympic
Speaker 1: campaign at least in my mind is nineteen eighty four.
Speaker 1: We had thirteen total medals, but eight of those were gold.
Speaker 3: Where was this in?
Speaker 1: This was competed in Los Angeles, the United States? Yeah,
Speaker 1: in Tokyo we had twenty total medals, Yeah, but only
Speaker 1: seven golds.
Speaker 4: The LA one. I remember that. I would have been
Speaker 4: six years old, but I distinctly remember it because that
Speaker 4: guy came in on the jetpack?
Speaker 3: Was there one?
Speaker 4: Yes?
Speaker 3: And that's that was the future? How come jitp packs
Speaker 3: haven't been there? I know that's why.
Speaker 4: His came in on a fucking jetpack and I was like, ah, man,
Speaker 4: that's there, this is the future.
Speaker 3: And he landed.
Speaker 4: I don't know what he did, but then then I
Speaker 4: was suspicious about whether it was he was on wires
Speaker 4: or whatever. But it was a jet pack, right, What
Speaker 4: happened to the jet pack?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Why aren't jit packs in every household? Anyway?
Speaker 1: Here's the medal table. Mark Todd he won a gold
Speaker 1: for a questrian. Yep, it would have been in peak
Speaker 1: Mark Todd charisma days, wouldn't It was eighty four to
Speaker 1: eighty seven the Olympics nineteen eighty four. Summer Olympics are
Speaker 1: They're always in an even year.
Speaker 4: Okay, as we are now, he famously after he won
Speaker 4: that gold medal, rode through a house with the horse
Speaker 4: with his gold medal and his underpants apparently, and rode
Speaker 4: through scooped up a bottle of champagne, drink out of
Speaker 4: it and rode out the other side.
Speaker 3: That's gangster, and then beat that horse to a polp afterwards. Whimped,
Speaker 3: not beat, oh whipped. Sorry.
Speaker 1: The men's coxless four Day one shown O'Brien, lezz O'Connell,
Speaker 1: Conrad Robertson and Keith Trusk was Less O'Connell, the last
Speaker 1: athlete to have been named.
Speaker 3: LEZ to represent New Zealander.
Speaker 4: Reckon Um sitting on the mail side. Another gold in
Speaker 4: the sar talking about Lane Leslie.
Speaker 1: Oh right, yes, of course. Another gold in the sailing.
Speaker 1: That was Rex Sellers and Chris Tims. They were sailing
Speaker 1: what's known as a tornado and sticking with sailing.
Speaker 3: Russell Coots keats. Yeah, he won a gold and what
Speaker 3: I presume to be some sort of leezer looking thing.
Speaker 4: He now he lives surrounded by gold leaf whatever.
Speaker 3: Yeah he does.
Speaker 1: And Ferguson had himself time. He won two gold medals.
Speaker 1: The first and the men's K one five hundred meters
Speaker 1: the second and it means K two five hundred meters yep.
Speaker 1: Then Alan Thompson went out and he won the K
Speaker 1: one one thousand and Ferguson jumped back in the boat
Speaker 1: with the three of his mates.
Speaker 3: And won another gold. The means K four one thousand meters.
Speaker 3: We love kayaking, do we? We love sitting down on
Speaker 3: a boat? Yeah? Why because we've got so many lakes?
Speaker 3: Is it?
Speaker 4: Is it like so many hydro dams. Yeah, you can
Speaker 4: get on a boat and row.
Speaker 1: I suppose Australia are never gonna beat us at that,
Speaker 1: are they? They don't have lakes now, they've got no water. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but yeah, I don't know. I'm gonna say something quite
Speaker 1: controversial here. I find it so boring, Ah, any kind
Speaker 1: of boat racing. I just don't like racing in general.
Speaker 3: I think. So you don't like sailing either.
Speaker 6: God?
Speaker 4: No, what about the sale GP when they're coming past
Speaker 4: you one hundred kumeers now and they basically spare into
Speaker 4: a marker and just about sync.
Speaker 3: I'm contractually obliged to say that I fucking love sale JF.
Speaker 3: All right, and you got to.
Speaker 4: Say in that chase boat when they hoooning past you
Speaker 4: a one hundred Colmers. Now that's not boring.
Speaker 1: No, that's not boring. Also, don't know who was winning
Speaker 1: when that was happening.
Speaker 4: Well, have you the same with Formula one?
Speaker 1: I know who's winning in Formula one. It's the guy
Speaker 1: who started in first. Hey just thinking that the strap
Speaker 1: on is losing the guts, is it?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 6: He is.
Speaker 4: He's had to do he's changed his car and he's
Speaker 4: have to take a ten like place grid penalty because
Speaker 4: he said to change his car because he's shipping the bed.
Speaker 1: Oh, I'll bet on him to come tenth then, yeah,
Speaker 1: because no one gets overtaken in Formula one.
Speaker 4: I'm lining I'm lining up, going to Singapore, Grand Prinix year.
Speaker 3: Take me. Yeah, absolutely, I love Formula one. My favorite ship.
Speaker 1: If they could take the motors out, put it on
Speaker 1: water and give guys sticks to propel it.
Speaker 4: Forward to get care on, we've got the sidetracked.
Speaker 3: The silver blow your mind.
Speaker 1: Kevin Barry, a boxing lightweight light heavyweight. Sorry before or
Speaker 1: after the the hair transplant? Well before, in fact, I
Speaker 1: think this is what knocked the hair out of his forehead. There, Yeah,
Speaker 1: Kevin Barry won himself the silver. He lose to Evander
Speaker 1: Holyfield or didn't.
Speaker 4: There some story around him and Evander. Either he lost
Speaker 4: to Evander or he beat him.
Speaker 1: He defeated Evander Holyfield, he did, yeah, holy but it
Speaker 1: was something to do with it as a disqualification.
Speaker 4: He got hit in the nuts or something after the bower.
Speaker 1: It doesn't say exactly what he did here. I'm sure
Speaker 1: someone could in fact check us on that. I did
Speaker 1: not know that that was. That's his massive claim to fame.
Speaker 1: He beat Evander Hollyo and the Olympics. Holy shit probably
Speaker 1: bit his ear, it might have been where we learned it.
Speaker 1: We then get into the bronzes. We had the men's
Speaker 1: cocks four and then Bruce Kendall, brother of one of
Speaker 1: bronze for sailing the wing glider, which I couldn't tell
Speaker 1: you what that is. That's just windsurfing. Yeah, I presume.
Speaker 1: So anyway, that is your most successful Summer Olympics for
Speaker 1: New Zealand. Eight golds, in large part due to Ian Ferguson.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't. I don't have a great feeling about
Speaker 4: this Olympics.
Speaker 1: Well they've done that. There's that story doing the rounds
Speaker 1: at the moment that they've they've plugged all the data
Speaker 1: into AI and it's spat out a projection for how
Speaker 1: many medals. Yeah, we're gonna winn. Apparently we're going to
Speaker 1: win sixteen total. And Lisa Carrington's our best chance at gold.
Speaker 3: I reckon. Amy Fisher's going to tipper up. I've heard that.
Speaker 3: I reckon, that's that's gonna happening. That's the only one.
Speaker 4: I reckon is a real certainty. Those those two, one
Speaker 4: of those two will win gold. The rest of them,
Speaker 4: like Hamish Cute, I'd love him in the high jump
Speaker 4: ye to win. But like you said, he won the
Speaker 4: Diamond League. But the dude, who's the world champ? You
Speaker 4: didn't go. Yeah, You've got Tom Walsh, who unfortunately is
Speaker 4: a couple of massive beef steak Americans in front of him.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, and then it's that what's his name, Croucher
Speaker 1: Krauser or something like that. Yeah, and he he's sort
Speaker 1: of like about half a meter ahead of everyone else,
Speaker 1: and then everyone else is sort of fighting for the
Speaker 1: bronze and silver.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: And then you've got Hayden Wild which he's definitely a chance,
Speaker 4: but not a dead certainty. No, he's not hot favorite,
Speaker 4: not if he takes his shoe off too quick. Yeah,
Speaker 4: he's still paying seven backs to win gold. They're about
Speaker 4: the own. You've got the I suppose you've got the
Speaker 4: rowing as well. They've got the the eight defending their
Speaker 4: their gold.
Speaker 1: Tokyo as As we've always said, anytime we're sitting down
Speaker 1: in a boat, a chance.
Speaker 3: And the yachting.
Speaker 4: I guess there were always a bit of a chance here.
Speaker 4: But we haven't got old Berling and Tuki, have we No,
Speaker 4: they're not there. They're over in Bala.
Speaker 1: No, but I do think that we still we still
Speaker 1: produce some great sailors. University flatmate of mine is sailing
Speaker 1: for some more over there. This is his second Olympics.
Speaker 3: So you get on the line. Can we talk to them? Yeah,
Speaker 3: get only on the line.
Speaker 1: I think they there's some sort of like social media blackout.
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's self enforced or if the
Speaker 1: New Zealand Olympic team do that.
Speaker 3: But he's not on social media. You just ring his phone.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but he's no real red hot favorites like that.
Speaker 4: For your previous years, when there was like Eric Murray's
Speaker 4: and the and the like, you know.
Speaker 3: That he goes a dead suit.
Speaker 1: No, But what I do love about the Olympics is
Speaker 1: over the next few weeks, someone is going to each
Speaker 1: themselves into the minds of every new Zelander. You know,
Speaker 1: someone's going to make a name for themselves that we
Speaker 1: haven't heard of before. We're like, oh shit, this did
Speaker 1: remember twenty twenty four Olympics we needed blah blah blah. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I like it as well because it's the only
Speaker 4: time I allowed my kids to watch TV in the
Speaker 4: mornings during the weekday. They're allowed to watch sport, so
Speaker 4: no fucking cartoons or YouTube.
Speaker 3: Yah.
Speaker 4: They can get up in the morning at five in
Speaker 4: the morning if they want, switch on and watch Olympics
Speaker 4: till they go to school.
Speaker 3: So I quite like that. We can sit there and.
Speaker 4: It's the rules, so where they watch my numbing things
Speaker 4: that they've never watched before, like the cat the cat
Speaker 4: toy dance and the gymnastic gymnast yeah with the little
Speaker 4: ribbon and stuff.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I asked jest to Vunger if he be any good
Speaker 1: at that on the podcast on Monday, and I actually
Speaker 1: reckon that was more embarrassing than what I did. No, okay, anyway,
Speaker 1: let's move on our agenda hunch for this week. Lane,
Speaker 1: you were talking about him just before.
Speaker 3: I like the look of.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I like the look of Hayden Wild. He's obviously
Speaker 4: a friend of the show and the triathlon. He got
Speaker 4: jypped with a penalty.
Speaker 1: He took, he took his shoe, unclipped his shoe too early, yes,
Speaker 1: which is bullshit as bullshit.
Speaker 4: So Hayden Wild here to win gold. He's paying four
Speaker 4: bucks and it's not bad.
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, like quite short, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, one of the favorites. Yeah, I don't know
Speaker 1: anything about Traython. So that's my haunch, Hayden Wild purely.
Speaker 4: It's that's a it's a very much a vibe punt
Speaker 4: because he's a he's a good dude, he doesn't take
Speaker 4: himself overly seriously and just a GC. So that's the
Speaker 4: hunch this week. The TB hunch is get on Hayden
Speaker 4: Wild to win gold. I was hoping that there will
Speaker 4: be a few more odds and maybe you're head up
Speaker 4: Carl from the tab around top threes, like just placing
Speaker 4: it can only pick gold at the stage, So I
Speaker 4: was king I was going to multi up kind of
Speaker 4: a whole lot of top threes and golds.
Speaker 3: But we're going to go yeah, you're.
Speaker 1: Going to go the oh, I've forgotten his name, Hamish
Speaker 1: and then Bevan Dougherty, Yeah, yeah, the one two Quinella, Yeah, the.
Speaker 3: One two Quinn.
Speaker 4: So yeah, So there's plenty of options on the Olympics
Speaker 4: if you if you go through that, you can go
Speaker 4: through it by sport happening. Handball for me, France is
Speaker 4: the hot favorite.
Speaker 3: Well they've always been good at handball. Front Germany hot contenders.
Speaker 4: Marathon swimming you can punt on.
Speaker 1: What's that marathon swimming? Yeah, it's just long swim? Is
Speaker 1: it forty one k's?
Speaker 3: I don't think it's shortly one.
Speaker 4: Case you'd grow gills by the end of it. I
Speaker 4: tell you who's the it's ten kilometers. Tell you who's
Speaker 4: the favorite. That Sharon Sharon, Yeah, Sharon von Rind, Netherlands.
Speaker 4: And then Leoni Beck from Germany, she's a real fish,
Speaker 4: had her number one, and Anna Marcella Canna.
Speaker 3: Let's move on.
Speaker 1: I would like to regale you with the Ballad of Nuggy.
Speaker 1: Are you familiar with Nuggy? Have you come across the.
Speaker 3: Nugge not Aaron Aaron Smith.
Speaker 1: No, not Aaron se I'm not an Auckland woman has
Speaker 1: been jailed after a more thid the best dog called
Speaker 1: Nuggie died. The especiac the poach couldn't walk more than
Speaker 1: ten meters. They took the dog after a number of
Speaker 1: reports and incidents from this woman who owned the dog.
Speaker 1: Nuggie couldn't even walk ten meters. He's a photo of
Speaker 1: a nuggy. By the way, Nuggie looks.
Speaker 3: Like a seal. Oh, Nuggy is a seal. Nuggy looks like.
Speaker 1: A seal's come up on land and grown legs. When
Speaker 1: they went to rescue him, he couldn't walk ten meters
Speaker 1: without him having to stop.
Speaker 3: When you have a look, see the blue thing he's
Speaker 3: lying on. Have you sea? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Have you seen these before? It's an emergency tarp. It's
Speaker 1: how they move unconscious patients.
Speaker 3: Around like that. If you need to get someone.
Speaker 1: Down a hallway inside our house, that's how the ambulance
Speaker 1: turns to it. Animal control officers said his leagues appeared
Speaker 1: to be collapsing under the weight of his huge body.
Speaker 3: This was their official statement. Collapsing on the weight of
Speaker 3: his huge body The woman had been feeding Nuggy up
Speaker 3: to ten pieces of chicken a day on top of
Speaker 3: the dog biscuits, that she feared it fried chicken. I
Speaker 3: presume you're not cooking it.
Speaker 1: Although there's an element of you know, premeditation here, like
Speaker 1: this woman was trying to.
Speaker 3: Make Nuggi fat. She's a feeder.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she had a feeding fittish and she couldn't do
Speaker 1: to a person. She shared to do it to a dog.
Speaker 1: Nuggie Wade fifty three points seven kilograms. When the SPCA
Speaker 1: picked him up, he was so I don't know what
Speaker 1: that's correct. He was so fat that when there's a
Speaker 1: joke when it was so fat. When they rolled him
Speaker 1: in flower, they could not Nuggie was so fair a
Speaker 1: fifty three point seven killers so obeesient. Was not possible
Speaker 1: for the vents to hear his heart with the stethoscope
Speaker 1: because the sound could penetrate the nuggy.
Speaker 7: So where's Nuggy now in Yeah, of course he fucking died.
Speaker 7: He's fifty three heven Keller's. The SPCA picked them up,
Speaker 7: they tried to heal him.
Speaker 1: He lost like eight kilos while he was in the
Speaker 1: in the in the vets and they came there and
Speaker 1: then they found.
Speaker 3: All this other stuff.
Speaker 4: You know obviously, yeah, has had you Oh yeah, as
Speaker 4: Hard would have been one hundred years old.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, poor Nuggi one of the most obese animals
Speaker 1: the SPCA has ever seen. And the person that was
Speaker 1: the owner has been sentenced to jail reparations of twelve
Speaker 1: hundred dollars a d. She's gone to jail, yep. And
Speaker 1: then yeah, she's gone to jail. See, and I think
Speaker 1: your punishment should be she should have to eat what
Speaker 1: she was feeding to Nuggy every day. Yeah, for the
Speaker 1: entirety of her jail sentence.
Speaker 4: That's a hell of a story. In the cello, isn't
Speaker 4: he You're sharing a cell with someone. What are you
Speaker 4: in here for?
Speaker 3: Drug smuggling? Smuggling drug? What are you here for? Violent assault?
Speaker 8: Ah?
Speaker 3: What about you feed my dog ten pieces of chicken
Speaker 3: a day until it was fifty three kilos? She would
Speaker 3: have got a hiding. You couldn't walk ten ten minutes.
Speaker 1: Look, I don't know correct me out so much, but
Speaker 1: it did rip rest in power Nuggy. Snack change sports
Speaker 1: scholarship has got nothing to do with Nuggy, but it is.
Speaker 3: We're binge.
Speaker 1: Watching a sport is a sport and it's changed so
Speaker 1: many people's lives.
Speaker 3: Yes, it has, it is. It's groundbreaking.
Speaker 1: It's about us giving back to the community. You know
Speaker 1: a lot of people aren't in a position to watch
Speaker 1: sport all day and eat snacka Chini chips, and we'd
Speaker 1: like to change that. So we've set up the Foundations
Speaker 1: Snack Chini Sports Scholarship and if you want to win it,
Speaker 1: just text Chip to three two three six, follow the
Speaker 1: link and you could be in to win the Ultimate
Speaker 1: acc Price Pack.
Speaker 3: We can take a quick break, come back with Yours Please.
Speaker 2: Yours Please, brought to you by Leader Home of the.
Speaker 3: We did too many of these yesterday, so many. It's good.
Speaker 3: I like it.
Speaker 4: If you're out there, get on the talkback function on
Speaker 4: your eyheartradiot, the little microphone and send them through because
Speaker 4: it's great.
Speaker 3: We have to do lest work.
Speaker 1: We've reached a tipping point where I guess we're either
Speaker 1: going to decide whether the entire podcast becomes Yours Please,
Speaker 1: or whether they're not all gonna make it. You know,
Speaker 1: we're already cutting a few out. I think we're just
Speaker 1: gonna have to keep cutting it down, or do we
Speaker 1: just do one big podcast called Yours Please, once a
Speaker 1: week potentially. The only problem with that is they date
Speaker 1: the date. It's like if you're asking us a question
Speaker 1: about a game that plays on Thursday and we're not
Speaker 1: addressing it till the following Wednesday.
Speaker 3: You know I'm a fan, all right, Well I have it.
Speaker 1: I've called a bunch today, so we've only got I
Speaker 1: think three four four, So just in the interest of
Speaker 1: people's time and sanity, first caller here, yours please.
Speaker 8: Good lads, Hey just done changing up the Olympic sports.
Speaker 8: I'm sure it's been discussed, but what about having just
Speaker 8: your efforts to Joe competing? Imagine that, like, you know,
Speaker 8: they could say, call out a seat number from the crowd.
Speaker 8: You have to come down and compete. Because I know I've.
Speaker 9: Watched a sport and gone, oh ship that guy competing
Speaker 9: his slow shit, But fuck that'd wipe the carp And
Speaker 9: how good would it be just to see you know,
Speaker 9: your average Joe flopping about is see.
Speaker 4: I like this because I think I pitched it to
Speaker 4: the Black Clash organizers. Was an eleventh man from the
Speaker 4: crowd or person or woman or whoever, just they just
Speaker 4: call a ticket number, and you're up, and you're on
Speaker 4: the field, no matter how hammred you are, no matter
Speaker 4: you have to put the kid on and then it's
Speaker 4: up to the captain to try and hide you, and
Speaker 4: invariably the ball will find you if you're trying to
Speaker 4: hide someone. And just the fact that if they took
Speaker 4: a catch, they would be an absolute hero. Yeah, or
Speaker 4: they did something amazing, but just an average Joe on
Speaker 4: the field, potentially blind drunk, would be hilarious.
Speaker 3: It would be.
Speaker 1: This is a half baked sports idea I had a
Speaker 1: while ago was the Power to the People Play, where
Speaker 1: once a game, batting team gets to pick a bowler
Speaker 1: from the opponent's fans out of the crowd and they
Speaker 1: get a bowl the next over and vice versus, and
Speaker 1: the next guy's going to come into bat. I think
Speaker 1: it's a great idea. I kind of wonder though, with
Speaker 1: the Olympic thing. So you just pick Joe Blogs out
Speaker 1: of the stands, he jumps in the ninth lane or whatever,
Speaker 1: and he.
Speaker 3: Runs against them.
Speaker 1: That doesn't give me a whole lot of information because
Speaker 1: I don't know too much about this dude. What I
Speaker 1: would like is to have like just maybe the high
Speaker 1: school champ of France. He's in the eleventh lane or
Speaker 1: ninth plane or whatever, so that you can see how
Speaker 1: much better these athletes are than just a guy that
Speaker 1: does it, you know what I mean. So in the sevens,
Speaker 1: you would bring in a dude from your local club
Speaker 1: who's like quite handy, and you would get to see
Speaker 1: just how big the gulf is between professionals and amateurs.
Speaker 1: I think, like I've worked with a few former professional athletes,
Speaker 1: the number one thing that pisses them off is how
Speaker 1: close that Joe Bloggs thinks he is to a professional athlete.
Speaker 3: That's I'm so much further away from you than you realize.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, Leehart thinks he's dangerously close to being an
Speaker 4: international cricketer because he's got Martin Gapteor in the Herey
Speaker 4: jab out in the Charity Games. So he thinks he's,
Speaker 4: you know, six months from training away from being in
Speaker 4: the black Caps, even at the age ripe old age.
Speaker 1: Of fifty, like thirties. I think he says, yeah, just
Speaker 1: so he's just.
Speaker 3: A month on the vodka sodas away from being an
Speaker 3: international cricketer.
Speaker 4: I love seeing him on the on the sod usually
Speaker 4: before before summer. Just going to get atle bit of
Speaker 4: shredding for our events before his next TV show comes out.
Speaker 3: Works, I manas to try another caller here yours?
Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, fellows, Hey, you guys have to get to
Speaker 6: the Olympics and our hollow the athletes around after they've
Speaker 6: done the Olympic events. Yeah, this will make great fucking
Speaker 6: watching boys, call it the Olympus. Watch him fucking just
Speaker 6: dominate off the field. It'd be great. Great, I fucking
Speaker 6: see it. Now, get there, follow him around and just
Speaker 6: watch them on absolute tear, bless blessed. Love your route.
Speaker 4: We tried, Yeah, we did. The Olympus is a great
Speaker 4: name as well. We tried to partner with Heineken and
Speaker 4: run the bar in New Zealand house.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because because the problem that we they're going to
Speaker 1: have over there is players get in first night fever,
Speaker 1: getting a bit too excited for their finished. So what
Speaker 1: we were going to do is put a full schedule
Speaker 1: up behind the bar and as the players come up,
Speaker 1: we cross reference the things. But may let you're lifting
Speaker 1: weights tomorrow morning, mate, Yeah, sit down, see you in
Speaker 1: two days.
Speaker 3: Yeah that's right. But once they're done.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they name lights up in green and they just
Speaker 4: got an open bar.
Speaker 3: That's crazy.
Speaker 1: Norm Yeah, but she is. Yeah. We tried, we tried,
Speaker 1: but we were denied. It would have been the second.
Speaker 1: Well look the other thing is we know we're around Paris.
Speaker 1: Were like, we could help these we could help these athletes,
Speaker 1: but in the interest of avoiding an international incident, we
Speaker 1: didn't go.
Speaker 3: Probably for the best. Another call here, yours please did.
Speaker 5: You get a team me again? Look after today's chat
Speaker 5: about the Unfunked South Canterbury group, I will happily be
Speaker 5: the founding member of that. I would love to be
Speaker 5: a part of an event that goes down to South
Speaker 5: Caliberary to watch Cali. It just fold half of North Otigo.
Speaker 5: But anyway, yeah, book the fucking limousine.
Speaker 3: There you go. Some people are aware of it, and
Speaker 3: I are you.
Speaker 4: What you're worried about is going down to unfux South
Speaker 4: Canterbury and Cannybury don't even know they've been.
Speaker 3: Fucked, that's right. And the first that they become aware
Speaker 3: of it is when you go, when I go down there,
Speaker 3: and so then they're gonna be like, why have you
Speaker 3: brought all these people down here telling us they hate
Speaker 3: South Canterbury I love it. I love it. Look you,
Speaker 3: I mean you're used to it.
Speaker 4: You're still I could see you're visibly still shaking with
Speaker 4: the Jazz Stavanger situation that for years. So try and
Speaker 4: maybe this can supersede it, or in your contral.
Speaker 3: Pile on top of it, you know, might make it
Speaker 3: much much worse. I reckon.
Speaker 1: But anyway, I just like there's someone on board at
Speaker 1: the unfolks south and everything.
Speaker 3: Thanks good. I think we've got one more.
Speaker 1: Nope, we're done. All right, let's knock this thing on
Speaker 1: the head. That'll do us for a Thursday episode tomorrow.
