1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: Right now. Darcis here with sport. Hey Darcy, Hello Ryan,

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: good afternoon, Good afternoon. The America's Cup. Now, you're you're

3
00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:08,119
Speaker 1: a sports man.

4
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:12,920
Speaker 2: So sportsman, yes, sportsman, more strength to your arms, sportsman.

5
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 1: So you would I assume, be on the side of

6
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:17,919
Speaker 1: the America's Cup. You would be wanting the government to

7
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:19,960
Speaker 1: fundness for it to be to be held here.

8
00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:21,880
Speaker 2: I would like to see it, but I'm not entirely

9
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 2: sure how many people will miss it, Like I'll enjoy it.

10
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,319
Speaker 2: I really will enjoy it because I enjoy those big things.

11
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 2: I talk about the Olympic Games. I love the Olympic Games.

12
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 2: But when the lead up the Olympic Games, you couldn't

13
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 2: find a more miserable swine on the planet around it

14
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 2: if you tried. That would be me complaining about the money,

15
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 2: complaining about the legacy that Olympic Games leave, complaining about

16
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 2: the behind the closed doors deals, complaining about the human

17
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:48,839
Speaker 2: rights logo. And as soon as the starter's going to go,

18
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 2: I'm like, wow, yes, so cool.

19
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: You're a fanatic, and I'm off I'd like to see

20
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: it here. Seventy five million dollars would you pay that

21
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 1: to see it here? Because That's the thing, isn't it.

22
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 2: Well, the question is, and I don't know a great

23
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:04,680
Speaker 2: deal about finances of the government, what does that represent

24
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 2: an expenditure for the government. How deeply have they looked

25
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 2: to this and the two billion dollars out of Barthalona

26
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:16,319
Speaker 2: that apparently the financial the economic benefit provided that much.

27
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 2: Whether that's accurate or not, I don't know. Have they

28
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 2: done the number?

29
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,119
Speaker 1: Well, here I'll tell you. I'll give you a real

30
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,399
Speaker 1: world example, because we've had one today from Simeon Brown.

31
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: So they are funding ten thousand extra elective surgeries by

32
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 1: June yep, fifty million dollars. So ten thousand New Zealanders

33
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 1: will get a new HAP or a new whatever some cataracts.

34
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: And then you think about, well, what's the benefit to

35
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 1: society from doing that.

36
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 2: You can't just look at an individual amount of money

37
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 2: and apply that across a number of different platforms and

38
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 2: suggest it would have been spent there. If it's not

39
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 2: spent here, because there is money there that should be

40
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 2: there for the enjoyment of the populace, for infrastructure, for

41
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 2: big events, for bringing people, then there's.

42
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: Not enough money.

43
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 2: That's not money.

44
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 1: Well, there's not in this money. You can't just say, well,

45
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:05,919
Speaker 1: I don't.

46
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 2: Believe he's saying that we we're going to spend all

47
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 2: this money on looking after sick people and we and

48
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 2: we wouldn't do it if we had the America's Cup.

49
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 1: Is that what they say they are, That's what he's saying.

50
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 1: He's saying, we're back to basics. We need roads, we

51
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 1: need surgeries, you know. And this is what the Council

52
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 1: is saying too at the moment, right. I mean, I'm

53
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 1: not saying it's it's the right thing. I'm just saying

54
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:28,680
Speaker 1: that's the that's the justification.

55
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 2: I feel though that in all honesty, the sale GP

56
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 2: is the future and the America's Cup is the past.

57
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 2: I think it's sailed. I think it's gone. We will

58
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 2: watch it overseas. But the attachment that New Zealanders have

59
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 2: two America's Cup Team New Zealand is far from that.

60
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,799
Speaker 2: I know there's a lot of key rocking around the place,

61
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 2: but you never see it. It's never there. We're on

62
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 2: the other side of the world, Red Sox, and I

63
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,920
Speaker 2: think we look at sale GP, which turns up every year.

64
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 2: Getting that here, now, that's exciting, that's relevant. So you

65
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,640
Speaker 2: you that's forward thinking. So yeah, I'm not dying here.

66
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: All right, You're doing this on your show tonight.

69
