We're this 18 00:00:54,333 --> 00:00:59,773 Speaker 2: interesting situation recently when we had Luxon and Leehart together 19 00:00:59,813 --> 00:01:02,453 Speaker 2: to see if they're the same person because seen them 20 00:01:02,453 --> 00:01:04,372 Speaker 2: no one had ever seen them in the same room together. 21 00:01:05,013 --> 00:01:08,572 Speaker 2: Turns out that they they are different people. One of 22 00:01:08,573 --> 00:01:10,173 Speaker 2: them had a lot of beers and the other one hadn't. 23 00:01:11,813 --> 00:01:13,693 Speaker 2: That's a good way to tell them apart very much. 24 00:01:13,733 --> 00:01:15,253 Speaker 3: So, so what was the common man?

Now I'm doing 139 00:06:11,333 --> 00:06:13,933 Speaker 2: the afternoon show after doing breakfast for a very long time, 140 00:06:14,253 --> 00:06:16,613 Speaker 2: and it's a real pleasure to be going to the 141 00:06:16,653 --> 00:06:17,973 Speaker 2: gym in the morning. It's a great way to start 142 00:06:17,973 --> 00:06:19,453 Speaker 2: the day and being lucky enough to have the time 143 00:06:19,453 --> 00:06:22,093 Speaker 2: to do that with their show starting at twelve, as 144 00:06:22,133 --> 00:06:25,693 Speaker 2: you know. But there's some terrible geomatic etiquette going on, 145 00:06:26,173 --> 00:06:30,613 Speaker 2: the amount of time people crowding around machines and each 146 00:06:30,653 --> 00:06:32,933 Speaker 2: having a go with friend groups, so they hold a 147 00:06:32,973 --> 00:06:36,573 Speaker 2: machine for a very long time. There's people between sets 148 00:06:36,693 --> 00:06:40,053 Speaker 2: just sitting on their phone taking their sweet time, just 149 00:06:40,493 --> 00:06:44,853 Speaker 2: doom scrolling through TikTok or whatever punishing social media they're on, 150 00:06:45,973 --> 00:06:48,573 Speaker 2: rather than just taking the amount of time you need 151 00:06:48,613 --> 00:06:50,973 Speaker 2: to rest and then doing your next set. 152 00:06:51,053 --> 00:06:52,773 Speaker 3: This is going to be a great chat. That's after 153 00:06:52,813 --> 00:06:56,133 Speaker 3: three o'clock. After two o'clock, we want to talk about 154 00:06:56,133 --> 00:06:58,653 Speaker 3: a bill that's been introduced in the Philippines. They are 155 00:06:58,693 --> 00:07:02,053 Speaker 3: calling it Heartbreak Leave, so it's in recognition of the 156 00:07:02,173 --> 00:07:06,733 Speaker 3: negative emotional baggage that can come after a relationship breakup. 157 00:07:06,813 --> 00:07:09,693 Speaker 3: It's getting a lot of traction online, and I've got 158 00:07:09,733 --> 00:07:12,213 Speaker 3: to say online fifty to fifty whether it's a good 159 00:07:12,213 --> 00:07:14,693 Speaker 3: idea for other countries to look at something like heartbreak 160 00:07:14,773 --> 00:07:17,253 Speaker 3: leave and fifty percent the other way that get out 161 00:07:17,293 --> 00:07:19,333 Speaker 3: of town if you have a breakup, just you know, 162 00:07:19,493 --> 00:07:21,293 Speaker 3: get back to work, get some routine. 163 00:07:21,413 --> 00:07:25,333 Speaker 2: No one would question bereavement leave. Yeah, I mean fair enough, 164 00:07:25,813 --> 00:07:27,893 Speaker 2: heartbreak leave. I mean my thoughts on this and I'll 165 00:07:27,893 --> 00:07:29,973 Speaker 2: go into this more after two o'clock. But it's like 166 00:07:30,093 --> 00:07:31,413 Speaker 2: the best thing you can do when you go through 167 00:07:31,413 --> 00:07:33,573 Speaker 2: a breakup is just get back to the things you know, 168 00:07:33,653 --> 00:07:36,533 Speaker 2: the things that you can do move forward. Your job 169 00:07:36,613 --> 00:07:39,253 Speaker 2: is something you can do that's positive. You keep your dignity, 170 00:07:39,453 --> 00:07:43,093 Speaker 2: You get on with life, and you show yourself that 171 00:07:43,133 --> 00:07:45,333 Speaker 2: you've got a future and you build it. Sitting at 172 00:07:45,333 --> 00:07:47,573 Speaker 2: home moping is the worst thing you can possibly do 173 00:07:47,613 --> 00:07:52,693 Speaker 2: for yourself. And as if you're an employer, you might go, well, 174 00:07:52,733 --> 00:07:54,533 Speaker 2: or do I want someone just moping around the office. 175 00:07:54,813 --> 00:07:58,693 Speaker 2: You probably don't. But from the perspective of the employee, 176 00:07:58,773 --> 00:08:00,893 Speaker 2: I say get back on the wagon straight away, no 177 00:08:01,013 --> 00:08:02,813 Speaker 2: days off, get into it. I think there's a lot 178 00:08:02,973 --> 00:08:05,333 Speaker 2: around people work hard well, A lot of people know. 179 00:08:05,453 --> 00:08:07,333 Speaker 3: We'll talk about that more after two o'clock each year, 180 00:08:07,333 --> 00:08:08,933 Speaker 3: because right now we want to talk about this. One 181 00:08:08,973 --> 00:08:12,293 Speaker 3: news Verian poet showed just over half of people think 182 00:08:12,333 --> 00:08:15,853 Speaker 3: the Prime Minister Christopher Luckxon has lost touch with voters. 183 00:08:15,893 --> 00:08:17,933 Speaker 3: The poll of one thousand people found fifty one percent 184 00:08:17,933 --> 00:08:20,093 Speaker 3: believed he was out of touch, thirty seven percent thought 185 00:08:20,133 --> 00:08:22,693 Speaker 3: he was in touch, and twelve percent didn't know or 186 00:08:22,733 --> 00:08:27,293 Speaker 3: preferred not to say not. Surprisingly, Green Party supporters were 187 00:08:27,293 --> 00:08:29,253 Speaker 3: most likely to say that the Prime Minister had lost 188 00:08:29,253 --> 00:08:31,733 Speaker 3: touch eighty eight percent, followed by the Labor Party. 189 00:08:31,853 --> 00:08:34,613 Speaker 2: So as the Green Party supporters really answering the question 190 00:08:34,813 --> 00:08:37,693 Speaker 2: or just anything to do with Christopher Luxon, they're going 191 00:08:37,732 --> 00:08:38,813 Speaker 2: to slam yeah. 192 00:08:38,933 --> 00:08:39,093 Speaker 5: I mean. 193 00:08:39,213 --> 00:08:41,333 Speaker 3: Luxon went on to reject the idea that he's lost 194 00:08:41,333 --> 00:08:43,732 Speaker 3: touch with voters, saying he was out and about meeting 195 00:08:43,732 --> 00:08:46,973 Speaker 3: people most days around the country. I understand this is 196 00:08:46,973 --> 00:08:49,093 Speaker 3: a quote from him. I understand New Zealanders are doing 197 00:08:49,093 --> 00:08:51,252 Speaker 3: it incredibly tough at the moment, and I'm working hard 198 00:08:51,252 --> 00:08:54,453 Speaker 3: to make sure I deliver results for them. But what 199 00:08:54,492 --> 00:08:56,732 Speaker 3: we want to talk about is what does it mean 200 00:08:56,813 --> 00:08:58,093 Speaker 3: to be in touch with the common man? 201 00:08:58,533 --> 00:09:01,172 Speaker 2: Surely we want our leaders to have been successful at 202 00:09:01,173 --> 00:09:03,732 Speaker 2: some point. Yeah, as being wealthy a bad thing? Or 203 00:09:04,012 --> 00:09:06,252 Speaker 2: is it? Surely it's a good thing to have success 204 00:09:06,252 --> 00:09:08,132 Speaker 2: scessful people. And look, I know a lot of people 205 00:09:08,372 --> 00:09:10,012 Speaker 2: are out of touch. They have no cash because they 206 00:09:10,053 --> 00:09:13,333 Speaker 2: spend their entire time in social media bubbles. So out 207 00:09:13,333 --> 00:09:17,933 Speaker 2: of touch isn't necessarily a factor of wealth? Yeah? Can 208 00:09:17,973 --> 00:09:20,372 Speaker 2: wealthy p be in touch? Is this just tall poppy 209 00:09:20,492 --> 00:09:22,693 Speaker 2: or does it mean something else all together? I mean 210 00:09:22,732 --> 00:09:24,773 Speaker 2: it's kind of a strange question to ask, isn't it? 211 00:09:25,813 --> 00:09:26,732 Speaker 3: How do you know? 212 00:09:26,813 --> 00:09:28,373 Speaker 2: It's a very pointed question, isn't it? 213 00:09:28,612 --> 00:09:30,333 Speaker 3: And how do you define what is in touch with 214 00:09:30,372 --> 00:09:32,493 Speaker 3: the common man? Who is the common man? But for you, 215 00:09:32,533 --> 00:09:34,852 Speaker 3: if we focus on Christopher lux And as our prime minister, 216 00:09:35,173 --> 00:09:37,533 Speaker 3: and you're in a different scenario because you've met him 217 00:09:37,533 --> 00:09:41,933 Speaker 3: face to face on numerous occasions. But judging on what 218 00:09:42,012 --> 00:09:43,573 Speaker 3: you see, and this is hard to do, but judging 219 00:09:43,573 --> 00:09:45,413 Speaker 3: on what you see on telling and what you read, 220 00:09:45,492 --> 00:09:48,293 Speaker 3: do you think he is in touch with most New Zealanders? 221 00:09:48,492 --> 00:09:51,693 Speaker 2: Well, I think he's a very personable person. Personable person, 222 00:09:51,693 --> 00:09:54,372 Speaker 2: that's a strange thing to say, But he's got good 223 00:09:54,453 --> 00:09:57,413 Speaker 2: chat he's interested in other people. Yes, he's you know, 224 00:09:57,492 --> 00:09:59,453 Speaker 2: I'm a broadcaster, so that might be slightly different. But 225 00:09:59,653 --> 00:10:02,893 Speaker 2: he definitely seems to be interested in the wider world 226 00:10:02,933 --> 00:10:06,252 Speaker 2: in my experience, take politics out of it. He's definitely 227 00:10:06,293 --> 00:10:09,053 Speaker 2: into sport and he'll give you a great chat about 228 00:10:09,093 --> 00:10:09,773 Speaker 2: rugby and cricket. 229 00:10:09,813 --> 00:10:11,853 Speaker 3: And I didn't know that about Christopher Luxon that he 230 00:10:12,012 --> 00:10:14,093 Speaker 3: is quite a sport brain. He knows a lot about rugby, 231 00:10:14,132 --> 00:10:15,093 Speaker 3: a lot about cricket. 232 00:10:15,173 --> 00:10:17,213 Speaker 2: Yeah, so is that in touch? It's pretty in touch 233 00:10:17,252 --> 00:10:17,933 Speaker 2: if you're talking to me. 234 00:10:18,173 --> 00:10:19,533 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's going to be a good chat.

But well, I think it's probably a I 258 00:11:15,492 --> 00:11:18,693 Speaker 10: think it's it's probably a good thing, really, because I reckon, 259 00:11:18,732 --> 00:11:21,453 Speaker 10: the most in touch pime minister we had was actually 260 00:11:22,813 --> 00:11:25,413 Speaker 10: little English and look out there we went. 261 00:11:25,533 --> 00:11:28,693 Speaker 3: Hun So yeah, you wouldn't say John Key was pretty 262 00:11:28,693 --> 00:11:32,413 Speaker 3: in touch with the average New Zealander. I mean the 263 00:11:32,492 --> 00:11:34,413 Speaker 3: thing that was said about John Key a lot is 264 00:11:34,413 --> 00:11:35,973 Speaker 3: he's a guy you'd like to have a beer with, 265 00:11:36,132 --> 00:11:38,892 Speaker 3: bring around, you know, invite to the barbecue. Where the 266 00:11:38,933 --> 00:11:41,293 Speaker 3: people would say that about Christopher Luxe and not to 267 00:11:41,333 --> 00:11:42,852 Speaker 3: the same extent. And I don't know why. 268 00:11:42,892 --> 00:11:44,893 Speaker 2: Well, Christoph Luxon won't have a beer with you because 269 00:11:44,892 --> 00:11:46,213 Speaker 2: he doesn't drink alcohol at all. 270 00:11:46,413 --> 00:11:49,413 Speaker 3: Yeah, well you can have a zero zero. 271 00:11:50,413 --> 00:11:52,492 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, what does it mean, Karen? What do 272 00:11:52,533 --> 00:11:54,573 Speaker 2: you think it means to be in touch or to 273 00:11:54,573 --> 00:11:55,292 Speaker 2: be out of touch? 274 00:11:57,892 --> 00:12:00,852 Speaker 10: Well, in the English's case, I remember the first thing 275 00:12:00,892 --> 00:12:04,413 Speaker 10: I've seen him on the TV was sharing a sheep 276 00:12:04,973 --> 00:12:07,813 Speaker 10: and I thought about us in touch as you could 277 00:12:07,813 --> 00:12:15,292 Speaker 10: get sheep, And two weeks later I couldn't believe it. 278 00:12:15,372 --> 00:12:17,813 Speaker 10: I thought, I thought it was great things he did 279 00:12:17,933 --> 00:12:21,772 Speaker 10: put in Zealand. But yeah, he was so in touch. 280 00:12:21,852 --> 00:12:22,693 Speaker 9: He was so in touch. 281 00:12:22,813 --> 00:12:23,973 Speaker 10: New zeal And got rid of him. 282 00:12:24,372 --> 00:12:28,373 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, I mean he actually arguably won that election. 283 00:12:28,453 --> 00:12:32,292 Speaker 2: If they hadn't in a non MP situation, he definitely 284 00:12:32,293 --> 00:12:34,693 Speaker 2: would have won that election. He was pretty in touch 285 00:12:34,732 --> 00:12:39,573 Speaker 2: with his walk runs and his spaghetti on pizza, spy 286 00:12:39,612 --> 00:12:41,333 Speaker 2: on pizza. That that was pretty in touch. I mean 287 00:12:42,453 --> 00:12:44,293 Speaker 2: spaghetti on pizza that could have been looked at a 288 00:12:44,333 --> 00:12:47,372 Speaker 2: play so play to try and make him look in touch. 289 00:12:47,413 --> 00:12:50,093 Speaker 2: But there's no doubt that Bill English was. He was 290 00:12:50,173 --> 00:12:50,893 Speaker 2: soul of the earth. 291 00:12:51,132 --> 00:12:54,172 Speaker 3: He was from Dipton. Yeah, absolutely. Just on the question 292 00:12:54,533 --> 00:12:56,733 Speaker 3: a wealth care and do you think that comes into 293 00:12:56,813 --> 00:12:59,012 Speaker 3: it when you look at being in touch with the 294 00:12:59,053 --> 00:13:02,653 Speaker 3: common man or common New Zealander, does money come into 295 00:13:02,653 --> 00:13:03,093 Speaker 3: the equation? 296 00:13:05,093 --> 00:13:05,252 Speaker 6: Oh? 297 00:13:05,333 --> 00:13:12,093 Speaker 10: Absolutely, yeah, yeah, yeah. Prime ministers should be role models 298 00:13:14,333 --> 00:13:18,852 Speaker 10: and I think, yeah, all this all this rubbish around 299 00:13:20,573 --> 00:13:25,172 Speaker 10: money like, I know, money isn't the only source of happiness, 300 00:13:25,213 --> 00:13:30,093 Speaker 10: but if you're going to live a long, prosperous life 301 00:13:30,093 --> 00:13:33,733 Speaker 10: in New Zealand, is definitely going to make things easier. 302 00:13:33,933 --> 00:13:37,012 Speaker 10: And any any wealthy person is going to admit that 303 00:13:37,173 --> 00:13:43,052 Speaker 10: to you. And I just think, yeah, yeah, yeah, what's 304 00:13:43,053 --> 00:13:44,132 Speaker 10: the reading with a bit of wealth? 305 00:13:45,333 --> 00:13:49,493 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the idea that because you're wealthy, you are, 306 00:13:49,852 --> 00:13:52,653 Speaker 2: by virtue of that out of touch. That doesn't seem 307 00:13:52,693 --> 00:13:54,333 Speaker 2: to make sense to me. I mean, you don't know 308 00:13:54,333 --> 00:13:56,252 Speaker 2: what other people do in their life, who they interact with, 309 00:13:56,933 --> 00:14:01,813 Speaker 2: and I don't know. Arguably you want our politicians to 310 00:14:01,852 --> 00:14:04,653 Speaker 2: have been successful in some way and and and to 311 00:14:04,693 --> 00:14:08,252 Speaker 2: have risen above the great unwashed like myself. 312 00:14:09,293 --> 00:14:11,733 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, there hasn't been a prime minister in the 313 00:14:11,813 --> 00:14:14,933 Speaker 3: last thirty years. I would say that hasn't had what 314 00:14:15,012 --> 00:14:18,533 Speaker 3: would be called a decent amount of wealth. Yeah, but 315 00:14:18,653 --> 00:14:23,093 Speaker 3: Helen Clark just Sindra Adern, Sir John Key, Well, now 316 00:14:23,213 --> 00:14:24,013 Speaker 3: Christal Reluxeon. 317 00:14:24,053 --> 00:14:27,292 Speaker 2: I guess you're comparing sort of career politicians over people 318 00:14:27,293 --> 00:14:29,453 Speaker 2: that have been in the business world and come back 319 00:14:29,493 --> 00:14:30,853 Speaker 2: into it. But we don't have that thing in New 320 00:14:30,973 --> 00:14:35,093 Speaker 2: Zealand where you're a lord. That's like in the UK 321 00:14:35,613 --> 00:14:39,053 Speaker 2: where you've come from, you know, the upper class. I 322 00:14:39,093 --> 00:14:42,893 Speaker 2: mean John Key, you know, obviously famously grew up in 323 00:14:42,933 --> 00:14:46,093 Speaker 2: a state house and Luxon christ Church Howard, I mean 324 00:14:46,133 --> 00:14:49,133 Speaker 2: his parents were did okay, but he's done better than 325 00:14:49,173 --> 00:14:53,493 Speaker 2: they have. Yeah, so you know, arguably he's he's pulled 326 00:14:53,573 --> 00:14:55,293 Speaker 2: himself up from something to something else. 327 00:14:55,733 --> 00:14:58,493 Speaker 3: I think politicians have a harder time now by trying 328 00:14:58,533 --> 00:15:00,933 Speaker 3: to get that cut through, trying to present themselves like 329 00:15:01,013 --> 00:15:04,613 Speaker 3: they understand regular kiwi's because we have been over the 330 00:15:04,693 --> 00:15:08,613 Speaker 3: last four years since the pandemic, incredibly tribal now, and 331 00:15:08,693 --> 00:15:10,893 Speaker 3: I think it is harder to get that cut through 332 00:15:11,093 --> 00:15:13,933 Speaker 3: on the six o'clock news or in the papers. So 333 00:15:14,013 --> 00:15:16,813 Speaker 3: when you try and compare Christopher Luxon to John Key, 334 00:15:16,853 --> 00:15:19,413 Speaker 3: I think that's an unfair comparison to how they are 335 00:15:19,733 --> 00:15:21,653 Speaker 3: when they're in front of you face to face. Do 336 00:15:21,733 --> 00:15:24,213 Speaker 3: they come across as good people? Are they interested in you? 337 00:15:24,813 --> 00:15:26,853 Speaker 3: I do think Christopher Luckxon has to think he is. 338 00:15:26,933 --> 00:15:30,733 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think he is a person that can hold 339 00:15:30,813 --> 00:15:33,933 Speaker 2: a very very warm conversation with anyone that he talks to. 340 00:15:34,173 --> 00:15:35,773 Speaker 3: Oh eight, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the 341 00:15:35,853 --> 00:15:38,973 Speaker 3: number to call twenty past one, Putting the. 342 00:15:39,013 --> 00:15:42,933 Speaker 1: Tough questions to the newspeakers, the mic asking breakfast. 343 00:15:42,493 --> 00:15:45,493 Speaker 11: The interventionism of the Supreme Court New Zealand Initiative chair 344 00:15:45,493 --> 00:15:48,053 Speaker 11: and senior fellow Roger Partridge is well, I'm glad somebody's 345 00:15:48,053 --> 00:15:50,293 Speaker 11: finally got onto this because this has been concerning me 346 00:15:50,293 --> 00:15:54,013 Speaker 11: for absolutely ages. Is it the individual group of judges 347 00:15:54,013 --> 00:15:56,253 Speaker 11: at the Supreme Court level that we just happen to 348 00:15:56,293 --> 00:15:59,532 Speaker 11: have got some sticky beaks or is it the court itself? 349 00:15:59,693 --> 00:16:03,373 Speaker 12: It's more the current judges. We've always had activist judges 350 00:16:03,413 --> 00:16:06,413 Speaker 12: within our senior courts. The movement and has gained momentum 351 00:16:06,453 --> 00:16:10,253 Speaker 12: over the last few years. A court that's much more activist, 352 00:16:10,333 --> 00:16:11,653 Speaker 12: to the point where we're out at the big boy 353 00:16:11,733 --> 00:16:14,333 Speaker 12: to the riskers. They're perceived a substituting their own values 354 00:16:14,533 --> 00:16:16,933 Speaker 12: for those of them. I'm a law it's obvious that 355 00:16:16,973 --> 00:16:18,253 Speaker 12: they're not equipped. 356 00:16:17,853 --> 00:16:18,293 Speaker 13: To do that. 357 00:16:18,733 --> 00:16:21,533 Speaker 11: Back tomorrow at six am, The Mike Hosking Breakfast with 358 00:16:21,613 --> 00:16:24,013 Speaker 11: Mayley's Real Estate News Talk ZB. 359 00:16:24,133 --> 00:16:27,333 Speaker 3: Twenty three past one.

That was absolute gold. 369 00:16:53,493 --> 00:16:54,493 Speaker 5: Anyway, if what's. 370 00:16:54,293 --> 00:16:56,853 Speaker 2: More in touch in spilling months and months and cheese 371 00:16:56,893 --> 00:16:58,453 Speaker 2: pile a studio, what's more. 372 00:17:03,693 --> 00:17:07,973 Speaker 14: But sticking of luxon? He hasn't been in touch? I mean, like, yeah, 373 00:17:08,013 --> 00:17:10,612 Speaker 14: he's like, look at where he's come from. He's like 374 00:17:10,813 --> 00:17:13,453 Speaker 14: in New Zealand, he's been in the States. Has he 375 00:17:13,533 --> 00:17:15,733 Speaker 14: been in touch when he's been there? Like he's he 376 00:17:15,813 --> 00:17:17,812 Speaker 14: lives in a different bubble. I think he's you know, 377 00:17:18,253 --> 00:17:20,453 Speaker 14: and look at any politician, like look at you know 378 00:17:21,093 --> 00:17:25,293 Speaker 14: the American politicians. Are they in touch? No? You know 379 00:17:25,813 --> 00:17:28,173 Speaker 14: Paris and Trump? I mean, are they in touch? 380 00:17:28,293 --> 00:17:28,333 Speaker 10: No? 381 00:17:28,773 --> 00:17:31,573 Speaker 2: Well it's interesting one if you bring up Trump, he's 382 00:17:31,613 --> 00:17:34,933 Speaker 2: that the working class think he's more in touch than Karmela. 383 00:17:35,093 --> 00:17:39,973 Speaker 2: And he's a billionaire and it was born into wealth, 384 00:17:40,013 --> 00:17:43,853 Speaker 2: so you know it can be more. How you interact 385 00:17:43,893 --> 00:17:46,893 Speaker 2: with people. Can you be wealthy and lived a different 386 00:17:46,933 --> 00:17:50,213 Speaker 2: life and be because there's different ways to look about 387 00:17:50,573 --> 00:17:52,613 Speaker 2: talk about in touch? Is in touch just the way 388 00:17:52,613 --> 00:17:55,013 Speaker 2: you live your life or the empathy you can feel 389 00:17:55,013 --> 00:17:57,333 Speaker 2: for other people. Matthew, I think no. 390 00:17:57,453 --> 00:18:00,133 Speaker 14: I think I think Luson does have empathy for and 391 00:18:00,173 --> 00:18:02,933 Speaker 14: like he's trying to turn things around. But look, he's not. 392 00:18:03,093 --> 00:18:05,173 Speaker 14: He's not at the ground, he's not at the at 393 00:18:05,173 --> 00:18:07,813 Speaker 14: the cole face. Is he really? He hasn't been for years, 394 00:18:08,613 --> 00:18:11,573 Speaker 14: And but I think he empathizes with the current plight 395 00:18:11,653 --> 00:18:12,853 Speaker 14: and he's trying to do his best. 396 00:18:13,573 --> 00:18:15,813 Speaker 2: Yeah, because what's the end game on this? If someone 397 00:18:16,333 --> 00:18:18,453 Speaker 2: to be in touch, someone has to be experiencing what 398 00:18:18,533 --> 00:18:21,773 Speaker 2: everyone's going through, then then that's not a case like 399 00:18:22,053 --> 00:18:25,013 Speaker 2: for example, I mean, I wasn't in christ Church in 400 00:18:25,173 --> 00:18:27,773 Speaker 2: two thousand and eleven for the earthquakes, but I could 401 00:18:27,773 --> 00:18:29,893 Speaker 2: certainly and so had an experience and that it was 402 00:18:29,933 --> 00:18:32,973 Speaker 2: going on. But I was extremely empathetic for the situation. 403 00:18:33,053 --> 00:18:36,213 Speaker 3: You can empathize with those situations, and I. 404 00:18:36,213 --> 00:18:38,333 Speaker 14: Think I think he does. I think he does. I 405 00:18:38,333 --> 00:18:41,533 Speaker 14: think he understands that you know, the average Joe Blow 406 00:18:41,693 --> 00:18:44,573 Speaker 14: is doing it tough even with the interest rates and stuff. 407 00:18:44,613 --> 00:18:48,773 Speaker 14: But you know, but you never see a politician that's 408 00:18:48,853 --> 00:18:51,493 Speaker 14: just come up from very few like you've said, Tyler. 409 00:18:51,573 --> 00:18:55,333 Speaker 14: They've all come from you know, from somewhere and gone 410 00:18:55,653 --> 00:18:57,853 Speaker 14: into politics. But they don't get into politics for the 411 00:18:57,893 --> 00:18:58,453 Speaker 14: money either. 412 00:18:58,933 --> 00:18:59,133 Speaker 12: Yeah. 413 00:18:59,453 --> 00:19:03,533 Speaker 2: Theah, well, well, I mean there's no doubt that Christoph 414 00:19:03,613 --> 00:19:05,813 Speaker 2: Luxen could make a lot more money if he continued 415 00:19:05,853 --> 00:19:09,413 Speaker 2: on his career path that he was them going into 416 00:19:09,493 --> 00:19:10,293 Speaker 2: into politics. 417 00:19:10,373 --> 00:19:13,453 Speaker 3: Yeah, and what was it? Was it meyor Wayne Brown 418 00:19:14,253 --> 00:19:16,653 Speaker 3: might have said that he doesn't want any counselors there 419 00:19:16,653 --> 00:19:18,413 Speaker 3: that are just there for the money. You kind of 420 00:19:18,453 --> 00:19:20,973 Speaker 3: want people there that genuinely want to make a difference 421 00:19:21,093 --> 00:19:25,293 Speaker 3: enough they're just there to take a paycheck as a politician, 422 00:19:26,013 --> 00:19:28,893 Speaker 3: then that kind of takes away from from why they 423 00:19:28,893 --> 00:19:30,373 Speaker 3: should be there. 424 00:19:31,533 --> 00:19:33,213 Speaker 2: And the old days, they definitely used to think that, 425 00:19:33,333 --> 00:19:35,293 Speaker 2: and politicians used to be a lot older because the 426 00:19:35,333 --> 00:19:37,093 Speaker 2: idea was that you do something and then you'd go 427 00:19:37,093 --> 00:19:41,453 Speaker 2: into politics because you've learned something. And nowadays politicians are 428 00:19:42,013 --> 00:19:44,813 Speaker 2: tend to be younger. And I mean there's two sides 429 00:19:44,813 --> 00:19:47,773 Speaker 2: of that, because you don't just want wealthy people in politics, 430 00:19:47,773 --> 00:19:49,573 Speaker 2: and you just don't want people of said an agent 431 00:19:49,733 --> 00:19:55,493 Speaker 2: in politics, do you but just be odd to say 432 00:19:55,493 --> 00:19:58,213 Speaker 2: that you didn't want successful people to be running? 433 00:19:58,253 --> 00:20:00,572 Speaker 3: He carefully want successful people and there, John, what do 434 00:20:00,613 --> 00:20:01,013 Speaker 3: you reckon? 435 00:20:03,733 --> 00:20:03,973 Speaker 15: Look? 436 00:20:04,733 --> 00:20:07,493 Speaker 9: I think this is just a total beat up by 437 00:20:08,653 --> 00:20:15,973 Speaker 9: one News. They love posting the borax at Luxeon and 438 00:20:16,173 --> 00:20:22,413 Speaker 9: particularly their political journalists. And I think the who are 439 00:20:22,493 --> 00:20:26,013 Speaker 9: out of touch with people is in fact TV one 440 00:20:26,213 --> 00:20:28,733 Speaker 9: and they would likely go the same way as TV 441 00:20:28,813 --> 00:20:35,413 Speaker 9: three if they don't make changes. If you look at Desinda, 442 00:20:35,853 --> 00:20:40,013 Speaker 9: if we're talking about wealth, so there's a real double 443 00:20:40,053 --> 00:20:43,173 Speaker 9: standard there because she also sold her house after two 444 00:20:43,253 --> 00:20:46,773 Speaker 9: years for a very nice capital gain. I think it 445 00:20:46,813 --> 00:20:51,853 Speaker 9: was three hundred thousand dollars and that really doesn't get 446 00:20:51,973 --> 00:20:55,893 Speaker 9: much of a mention. And also I think, you know, 447 00:20:56,053 --> 00:20:59,613 Speaker 9: for the labor in Greens to comment about people being 448 00:20:59,653 --> 00:21:03,653 Speaker 9: out of touch, well sad to say they were totally 449 00:21:03,693 --> 00:21:06,293 Speaker 9: out of touch by the time of the last election 450 00:21:06,693 --> 00:21:11,133 Speaker 9: and that's the result they got. You know, the things 451 00:21:11,173 --> 00:21:13,413 Speaker 9: they did in the lead up to the election, and 452 00:21:13,453 --> 00:21:18,013 Speaker 9: you remember ut Texas and you know, all these sort 453 00:21:18,053 --> 00:21:22,973 Speaker 9: of things which actually impacted comin folk were disastrous. So 454 00:21:24,253 --> 00:21:27,693 Speaker 9: you know, lux and for me, I'm sure he doesn't 455 00:21:27,693 --> 00:21:32,133 Speaker 9: get everything right. But I just love his energy and enthusiasm. 456 00:21:32,213 --> 00:21:36,453 Speaker 9: My god, I get tired just looking at his travel program, 457 00:21:36,533 --> 00:21:41,013 Speaker 9: you know, and that's what we need. And you know, 458 00:21:41,053 --> 00:21:47,733 Speaker 9: they are focusing on what people think is important, so economy, crime, health, 459 00:21:48,053 --> 00:21:51,853 Speaker 9: that sort of thing, the other stuff. And I noticed 460 00:21:51,893 --> 00:21:55,973 Speaker 9: in a recent sort of hole that things like climate 461 00:21:56,333 --> 00:22:01,053 Speaker 9: and climate change were way down the list. So they're 462 00:22:01,093 --> 00:22:05,333 Speaker 9: focusing on things that are important to people. So yeah, 463 00:22:05,373 --> 00:22:07,733 Speaker 9: my view is that it's just a total beat up, 464 00:22:07,853 --> 00:22:12,733 Speaker 9: you know, clip of TV trying to make themselves relevant. 465 00:22:12,813 --> 00:22:15,733 Speaker 2: Well, there's no doubt about that that the Pole is 466 00:22:15,773 --> 00:22:17,733 Speaker 2: not done for the good of the nation. That the 467 00:22:17,773 --> 00:22:20,733 Speaker 2: Pole has done. The one news variant Pole is done 468 00:22:20,853 --> 00:22:25,293 Speaker 2: to have headlines and have content and obviously lead to 469 00:22:25,613 --> 00:22:28,573 Speaker 2: lead to ratings. So you don't ask the question, you know, 470 00:22:28,733 --> 00:22:32,573 Speaker 2: is Christopher Luxe and touch you know, just just because 471 00:22:32,933 --> 00:22:34,413 Speaker 2: just out of the goodness of your heart, because you 472 00:22:34,453 --> 00:22:37,013 Speaker 2: think it's something that the nation needs to needs to 473 00:22:38,093 --> 00:22:41,013 Speaker 2: needs to know. But also it is I mean, in politics, 474 00:22:41,013 --> 00:22:44,373 Speaker 2: it's not just about what's true and what's fair. It's 475 00:22:44,453 --> 00:22:47,173 Speaker 2: about Unfortunately, it'd be good if it was just straight 476 00:22:47,213 --> 00:22:49,493 Speaker 2: down the line facts and people made decisions on what 477 00:22:49,613 --> 00:22:52,773 Speaker 2: was true and what wasn't. But it comes down to 478 00:22:53,173 --> 00:22:57,573 Speaker 2: this horrible word that really weird optics. Yeah, I hate 479 00:22:57,573 --> 00:22:59,253 Speaker 2: when people say the optics are bad. Let's not talk 480 00:22:59,253 --> 00:23:01,853 Speaker 2: about the optics. Let's talk about the actual reality of 481 00:23:01,853 --> 00:23:04,093 Speaker 2: the situation. But that's not the way politics work. People 482 00:23:04,133 --> 00:23:06,813 Speaker 2: are busy, they're they're they're they're struggling in their life, 483 00:23:07,013 --> 00:23:10,773 Speaker 2: So the optics of a politician is so important. 484 00:23:10,293 --> 00:23:12,133 Speaker 3: And that's not the way humans work. We all make 485 00:23:12,253 --> 00:23:15,053 Speaker 3: judgments about people, whether we we think we do or not. 486 00:23:15,213 --> 00:23:18,013 Speaker 3: You know, that's the whole thing. First impressions count, They 487 00:23:18,053 --> 00:23:22,013 Speaker 3: absolutely do. It's just human nature. Unfortunate thing for politicians 488 00:23:22,053 --> 00:23:24,493 Speaker 3: and people like Christopher Luxen is when you've got a 489 00:23:24,493 --> 00:23:27,613 Speaker 3: six second sound bite to try and present your arguments, 490 00:23:27,733 --> 00:23:29,173 Speaker 3: you're not going to get a fair run. And I 491 00:23:29,173 --> 00:23:30,693 Speaker 3: don't think he has had a fair run. I don't 492 00:23:30,693 --> 00:23:32,893 Speaker 3: think a lot of politicians get a fair run. But 493 00:23:33,053 --> 00:23:34,853 Speaker 3: that's what we say. What do you say, Oh, e 494 00:23:34,893 --> 00:23:37,133 Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number to call? 495 00:23:37,213 --> 00:23:38,173 Speaker 3: It is half past one. 496 00:23:41,493 --> 00:23:42,333 Speaker 13: Jus talk said. 497 00:23:42,373 --> 00:23:45,813 Speaker 16: The headlines with blue bubble taxis it's no trouble with 498 00:23:45,853 --> 00:23:49,933 Speaker 16: a blue bubble New Zealand's war on inflation is technically over, 499 00:23:50,213 --> 00:23:53,373 Speaker 16: with the annual rate on two point two percent, well 500 00:23:53,373 --> 00:23:56,893 Speaker 16: within the Reserve Bank's target band. It means interest rates 501 00:23:56,933 --> 00:24:00,133 Speaker 16: could fall and the unemployment rates settle in the next year, 502 00:24:00,493 --> 00:24:04,493 Speaker 16: but households will still be doing it tough.

That's 545 00:26:15,933 --> 00:26:18,493 Speaker 2: why this is such a great question in terms of 546 00:26:18,533 --> 00:26:20,733 Speaker 2: conversation that they've thrown out there, and the very reason 547 00:26:20,733 --> 00:26:23,093 Speaker 2: why they've asked this question and this very very unpopul 548 00:26:23,133 --> 00:26:26,133 Speaker 2: because it's an undefinable thing. And you know when we 549 00:26:26,173 --> 00:26:28,933 Speaker 2: say before that Green Party supporters were most likely to 550 00:26:28,933 --> 00:26:31,853 Speaker 2: say the Prime Minister had lost touch at eighty eight percent. 551 00:26:31,893 --> 00:26:34,293 Speaker 2: That's because it's long critical lines. But if you take 552 00:26:34,333 --> 00:26:37,933 Speaker 2: politics out of the situation, really are we talking about character? 553 00:26:38,533 --> 00:26:41,693 Speaker 2: Is that what we're saying, or some people will define 554 00:26:41,733 --> 00:26:45,453 Speaker 2: it as you're just rich and so you're not experiencing 555 00:26:45,453 --> 00:26:48,933 Speaker 2: what the common man is experiencing. Because if you take 556 00:26:49,013 --> 00:26:52,893 Speaker 2: politics out of it completely, and I would say that 557 00:26:52,933 --> 00:26:55,293 Speaker 2: the politician that I've met in my life that was 558 00:26:55,293 --> 00:26:57,573 Speaker 2: the most in touch and the most soul of the 559 00:26:57,613 --> 00:27:01,453 Speaker 2: earth was David Shearer. Yep, he's a fantastic guy, but 560 00:27:01,533 --> 00:27:05,293 Speaker 2: he was disliked for other reasons because he was seen 561 00:27:05,413 --> 00:27:08,333 Speaker 2: to be politically optically. 562 00:27:07,853 --> 00:27:10,653 Speaker 3: Not He wasn't good with the SoundBite either, was he 563 00:27:10,773 --> 00:27:12,573 Speaker 3: but there's a fair question, Tim. I mean when you 564 00:27:12,613 --> 00:27:15,653 Speaker 3: look at Akay been in touch with the average New Zealander, 565 00:27:15,693 --> 00:27:17,373 Speaker 3: what is the average New Zealander these days? 566 00:27:17,373 --> 00:27:17,693 Speaker 7: To you? 567 00:27:19,253 --> 00:27:22,813 Speaker 17: Well, I mean the average is struggling and having a 568 00:27:22,813 --> 00:27:25,453 Speaker 17: pretty tough time at it and an economy that was 569 00:27:25,493 --> 00:27:28,013 Speaker 17: out of control. And he's have voted his time and 570 00:27:28,093 --> 00:27:30,973 Speaker 17: his team saying we are going to be everywhere it 571 00:27:31,053 --> 00:27:33,733 Speaker 17: takes to help bring us under control so that quality 572 00:27:33,773 --> 00:27:36,133 Speaker 17: of life can return. I don't think you could do 573 00:27:36,213 --> 00:27:39,693 Speaker 17: anything more or a better for the economy than what 574 00:27:39,733 --> 00:27:41,973 Speaker 17: he's done is say we're going to try and help 575 00:27:42,013 --> 00:27:44,173 Speaker 17: you guys back on a footing so when you go 576 00:27:44,253 --> 00:27:47,013 Speaker 17: to work and do your forty hours that you actually 577 00:27:47,093 --> 00:27:48,973 Speaker 17: might be able to live a good life. 578 00:27:49,813 --> 00:27:53,453 Speaker 2: Thanks so much, Tim, Yeah, I mean you're talking about sacrifice, 579 00:27:53,893 --> 00:27:59,653 Speaker 2: So sacrificing potential four million dollars a year jobs to 580 00:27:59,773 --> 00:28:02,013 Speaker 2: come and do what he believes is the right thing 581 00:28:02,053 --> 00:28:05,493 Speaker 2: to get the country back on track. Maybe you can 582 00:28:05,573 --> 00:28:07,173 Speaker 2: be out of touch and do that. Maybe you don't 583 00:28:07,173 --> 00:28:10,893 Speaker 2: know everything about every part of someone's life that is struggling, 584 00:28:11,213 --> 00:28:14,613 Speaker 2: but you can have empathy from your ivory tower as 585 00:28:14,613 --> 00:28:15,013 Speaker 2: you do it. 586 00:28:15,213 --> 00:28:17,653 Speaker 3: Yeah, But empathy is a big thing.

I can 677 00:32:17,173 --> 00:32:19,413 Speaker 18: or give us something to emulate and go, yeah, actually 678 00:32:19,453 --> 00:32:22,173 Speaker 18: he knows how to get things done, and that's leadership 679 00:32:22,213 --> 00:32:23,573 Speaker 18: is getting stuff done. 680 00:32:23,973 --> 00:32:24,133 Speaker 5: Yeah. 681 00:32:24,133 --> 00:32:26,653 Speaker 2: I think people are kind of confusing the idea of 682 00:32:26,733 --> 00:32:29,213 Speaker 2: wealth with being out of touch. But you can certainly 683 00:32:29,253 --> 00:32:31,533 Speaker 2: be out of touch and have no money at all. 684 00:32:31,573 --> 00:32:35,093 Speaker 2: I've got friends that have absolutely no money but are 685 00:32:35,493 --> 00:32:39,813 Speaker 2: so entrenched in social media bubbles that they have become 686 00:32:39,853 --> 00:32:44,693 Speaker 2: completely out of touch with what most New Zealand does are. 687 00:32:44,573 --> 00:32:46,573 Speaker 3: In their little tribe, and they think that's what most 688 00:32:46,573 --> 00:32:49,053 Speaker 3: people think, but the reality is that that's just a 689 00:32:49,093 --> 00:32:51,013 Speaker 3: real small proportion of the population. 690 00:32:51,253 --> 00:32:54,933 Speaker 2: Yes, So if you're you know, your metric for how 691 00:32:55,133 --> 00:32:58,213 Speaker 2: in touch someone is how much money they've got, or 692 00:32:58,373 --> 00:33:02,493 Speaker 2: how many houses they've recently sold, or the optics of 693 00:33:02,493 --> 00:33:05,893 Speaker 2: the situation, the word that I absolutely hate, then you 694 00:33:05,973 --> 00:33:08,613 Speaker 2: probably have got a pretty simplistic view of what in 695 00:33:08,653 --> 00:33:09,613 Speaker 2: touch and out of touch is. 696 00:33:09,813 --> 00:33:12,453 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm always uncomfortable, and Kevin, I'll bring you back 697 00:33:12,493 --> 00:33:15,133 Speaker 3: in here. Always uncomfortable. The way that we do tend 698 00:33:15,133 --> 00:33:19,013 Speaker 3: to try and bring down politicians. It's determinant on how 699 00:33:19,053 --> 00:33:21,453 Speaker 3: you vote when you want to try and tear that 700 00:33:21,533 --> 00:33:25,053 Speaker 3: person down. And I love that Theodore Roosevelt quote. I 701 00:33:25,093 --> 00:33:27,173 Speaker 3: think it is that the credit belongs to the person 702 00:33:27,213 --> 00:33:29,853 Speaker 3: in the arena, and politics is not a job I 703 00:33:29,893 --> 00:33:32,773 Speaker 3: would ever want to do. It seems an incredibly hard 704 00:33:32,853 --> 00:33:35,213 Speaker 3: job and you get bugger or love for it. People 705 00:33:35,373 --> 00:33:37,893 Speaker 3: just love to try and tear you down, and you're 706 00:33:37,973 --> 00:33:40,453 Speaker 3: there to try and do the best you can for 707 00:33:40,493 --> 00:33:41,053 Speaker 3: this country. 708 00:33:41,213 --> 00:33:42,653 Speaker 2: I mean, why would anyone do it? Well, that's a 709 00:33:42,693 --> 00:33:45,613 Speaker 2: really good question. So if people that have been successful 710 00:33:45,693 --> 00:33:47,933 Speaker 2: know that if you go into politics now then you 711 00:33:47,933 --> 00:33:51,893 Speaker 2: are going to be abused for your success, then is 712 00:33:51,933 --> 00:33:54,093 Speaker 2: that going to make it even less attractive for really 713 00:33:54,133 --> 00:33:56,973 Speaker 2: successful people to jump in and see what they can 714 00:33:57,013 --> 00:33:57,933 Speaker 2: do to help their country. 715 00:33:58,013 --> 00:34:02,373 Speaker 18: Kevin, I think you've it, nol On had that there's 716 00:34:02,413 --> 00:34:06,853 Speaker 18: some at the moment we don't give enough, We don't 717 00:34:06,853 --> 00:34:08,573 Speaker 18: make it a trace of enough to get really good 718 00:34:08,613 --> 00:34:15,093 Speaker 18: people in running our councils and running our our and 719 00:34:15,172 --> 00:34:18,053 Speaker 18: being in parliament, and you end up with the message 720 00:34:18,213 --> 00:34:20,573 Speaker 18: you have and because you're trying then to basically, if 721 00:34:20,573 --> 00:34:22,733 Speaker 18: you if you're running a company, you get to decide 722 00:34:22,893 --> 00:34:26,453 Speaker 18: how the company runs, you know, so you achieve your 723 00:34:27,253 --> 00:34:29,212 Speaker 18: whatever the aims of the company company are. But then 724 00:34:29,373 --> 00:34:32,333 Speaker 18: if you go into a council, then you're arguing with 725 00:34:32,413 --> 00:34:35,133 Speaker 18: people and it's all getting written up in the in 726 00:34:35,173 --> 00:34:36,973 Speaker 18: the press the whole time. Every time you try and 727 00:34:36,973 --> 00:34:40,453 Speaker 18: make a decision that someone might not like. And even 728 00:34:40,453 --> 00:34:44,093 Speaker 18: though Barma spoke about it when he left, he spoke 729 00:34:44,093 --> 00:34:46,973 Speaker 18: about as the president, he only really had two years 730 00:34:47,013 --> 00:34:49,772 Speaker 18: before he then had to start working because they voted 731 00:34:49,773 --> 00:34:54,093 Speaker 18: against him for in the in the House of Representatives whatever, 732 00:34:54,333 --> 00:34:56,133 Speaker 18: and he then said, right now, I have. 733 00:34:56,133 --> 00:34:57,053 Speaker 19: To move these people. 734 00:34:57,213 --> 00:34:57,533 Speaker 6: You have to. 735 00:34:57,933 --> 00:35:01,133 Speaker 18: You're basically horse trading all the time to get anything done. 736 00:35:01,173 --> 00:35:02,973 Speaker 18: Even though he's the president for eight years and everyone's 737 00:35:03,053 --> 00:35:05,573 Speaker 18: saying that he was a fantastic or some singtle say 738 00:35:05,573 --> 00:35:08,333 Speaker 18: it's a fantastic present, he didn't really get much achieved 739 00:35:08,333 --> 00:35:10,293 Speaker 18: because he had to keep trying to get one group 740 00:35:11,053 --> 00:35:13,453 Speaker 18: and then trying to get another group, and you try 741 00:35:13,453 --> 00:35:16,212 Speaker 18: to sitting swords. But the word we seem to be 742 00:35:16,413 --> 00:35:18,652 Speaker 18: at least we've got a group of three people who 743 00:35:18,653 --> 00:35:20,373 Speaker 18: are moving in the same direction, or a group of 744 00:35:20,413 --> 00:35:22,893 Speaker 18: three parties that are moving in the same right direction 745 00:35:24,053 --> 00:35:26,613 Speaker 18: or a direction. Some people might not like it because 746 00:35:26,613 --> 00:35:31,093 Speaker 18: it's affecting them worse than others. But if you're then 747 00:35:31,093 --> 00:35:33,253 Speaker 18: going to tear the guy that or people down in 748 00:35:33,253 --> 00:35:36,853 Speaker 18: the leadership positions, you try to come out with the solutions. 749 00:35:37,013 --> 00:35:39,653 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, well, I mean that's a big question. And democracy, 750 00:35:39,693 --> 00:35:42,853 Speaker 2: isn't it. How much time do our politicians spend actually 751 00:35:42,853 --> 00:35:46,293 Speaker 2: doing what they believe and they've been elected because they 752 00:35:46,333 --> 00:35:49,293 Speaker 2: believe that to do the best for the country. And 753 00:35:49,333 --> 00:35:51,933 Speaker 2: how much do they do they spend dealing with media 754 00:35:51,933 --> 00:35:54,853 Speaker 2: punishers like you and me, Tyler coming up with content 755 00:35:54,973 --> 00:35:59,333 Speaker 2: for our broadcasts for our own personal gain to nicol 756 00:35:59,333 --> 00:36:03,652 Speaker 2: and Diamond little things that that's arguably meaningless in the 757 00:36:03,653 --> 00:36:05,213 Speaker 2: big scheme of things as democracy. 758 00:36:05,253 --> 00:36:07,453 Speaker 3: Baby, Julia, what do you think on this one? 759 00:36:09,053 --> 00:36:13,172 Speaker 20: Well, I agree with the well Kiora, now you two 760 00:36:13,333 --> 00:36:18,053 Speaker 20: both help.

It's but this really gets me because what 763 00:36:25,573 --> 00:36:29,133 Speaker 20: a stupid question from TV one. I just think they 764 00:36:29,213 --> 00:36:31,813 Speaker 20: are woke and out of touch. I totally agree with 765 00:36:31,813 --> 00:36:33,813 Speaker 20: the previous to call us. 766 00:36:34,973 --> 00:36:35,733 Speaker 7: What a question. 767 00:36:35,853 --> 00:36:38,533 Speaker 20: I mean, in touch with whom if you're talking about, 768 00:36:38,733 --> 00:36:41,733 Speaker 20: in touch with business people and people who want to 769 00:36:41,813 --> 00:36:45,573 Speaker 20: move the economy, grow the economy, so we can afford 770 00:36:45,613 --> 00:36:49,733 Speaker 20: as a country to help those who are going to 771 00:36:49,813 --> 00:36:52,093 Speaker 20: always be you know, there's going to be always people 772 00:36:52,133 --> 00:36:56,053 Speaker 20: that are needing help. I totally agree with we need 773 00:36:56,093 --> 00:36:58,692 Speaker 20: to have funding for that, but you can't do it 774 00:36:58,773 --> 00:37:00,933 Speaker 20: the way the books are at the moment, and with 775 00:37:01,093 --> 00:37:05,533 Speaker 20: what we've inherited. It's it's it's drawing on the tall 776 00:37:05,573 --> 00:37:09,292 Speaker 20: poppy syndrome society that just want to slash and down 777 00:37:10,093 --> 00:37:13,293 Speaker 20: the poor guy. I feel for him. Every media question 778 00:37:13,453 --> 00:37:17,212 Speaker 20: that comes at him is just demeaning him. And when 779 00:37:17,213 --> 00:37:24,853 Speaker 20: he's out there overseas trying to increase exports, now exports, 780 00:37:24,933 --> 00:37:28,652 Speaker 20: that's exactly what we need for growing the economy. If 781 00:37:28,653 --> 00:37:30,493 Speaker 20: you want to say, is he in touch with the 782 00:37:30,573 --> 00:37:36,133 Speaker 20: common man? And I think that's what TV wan are imply. Well, 783 00:37:36,173 --> 00:37:39,172 Speaker 20: I suppose you'd say Jasinda would be more in touch 784 00:37:39,253 --> 00:37:42,093 Speaker 20: than Luxeon, but look where she led the economy. 785 00:37:42,653 --> 00:37:44,333 Speaker 7: So what a stupid question? 786 00:37:44,453 --> 00:37:49,613 Speaker 20: Why not say, do you think Christopher Luxeen is growing 787 00:37:49,613 --> 00:37:52,493 Speaker 20: the economy, is doing a good job in trying to 788 00:37:52,533 --> 00:37:55,413 Speaker 20: grow the economy.

So seeing is the simplistic metric 792 00:38:05,453 --> 00:38:09,773 Speaker 2: that people seem to be judging this, whether Luxe Ander's 793 00:38:09,973 --> 00:38:13,973 Speaker 2: in touch, out of touches property yep. I think he 794 00:38:14,093 --> 00:38:15,413 Speaker 2: sold a few properties recently. 795 00:38:15,453 --> 00:38:15,613 Speaker 15: There. 796 00:38:15,653 --> 00:38:17,493 Speaker 3: Who doesn't sell a property and make money? 797 00:38:17,573 --> 00:38:17,773 Speaker 7: You know? 798 00:38:18,853 --> 00:38:22,573 Speaker 2: But if that's the simplistic last metric we're looking at, 799 00:38:23,173 --> 00:38:24,933 Speaker 2: I've got a question for you. What do you think 800 00:38:25,053 --> 00:38:28,933 Speaker 2: is the most expensive residential property in New Zealand? And where? 801 00:38:29,413 --> 00:38:31,413 Speaker 3: Good question.

He appears to me to be 824 00:39:42,373 --> 00:39:46,573 Speaker 7: sort of always a bit awkward, But as a prime minister, 825 00:39:47,013 --> 00:39:51,172 Speaker 7: I don't really think it's a necessary a tribute to heave. 826 00:39:51,213 --> 00:39:53,453 Speaker 7: In a lot of ways, he is a good manager 827 00:39:54,053 --> 00:39:56,813 Speaker 7: and that's what he's doing. He's managing the country. But 828 00:39:56,853 --> 00:39:59,613 Speaker 7: the only thing I would say is, when I see him, 829 00:39:59,653 --> 00:40:02,933 Speaker 7: I often feel that he lacks the ability to think quickly, 830 00:40:03,813 --> 00:40:08,453 Speaker 7: like making comments about along the lines of it's not 831 00:40:08,693 --> 00:40:11,493 Speaker 7: my fault or it's not my I'm not going to 832 00:40:11,533 --> 00:40:14,373 Speaker 7: apologize for being rich or wealthy. I can't remember exactly 833 00:40:14,413 --> 00:40:17,333 Speaker 7: what he said. Those sort of comments are probably not 834 00:40:17,493 --> 00:40:22,133 Speaker 7: that helpful to the average person, and it doesn't particularly 835 00:40:22,173 --> 00:40:25,693 Speaker 7: worry me, but some people would think, well, you know, okay, 836 00:40:25,453 --> 00:40:28,053 Speaker 7: why would he say something like that when I'm struggling 837 00:40:28,093 --> 00:40:29,973 Speaker 7: to pay a mortgage and all that. It's sort of 838 00:40:30,053 --> 00:40:32,253 Speaker 7: rub assault into the wound a little bit, you know 839 00:40:32,293 --> 00:40:32,692 Speaker 7: what I mean. 840 00:40:33,533 --> 00:40:35,893 Speaker 2: But I guess I guess what's he supposed to say 841 00:40:35,933 --> 00:40:39,213 Speaker 2: under that circumstance, though, I mean, he's just telling the truth. 842 00:40:39,333 --> 00:40:43,053 Speaker 2: I mean, sometimes the politicians, if they pretend, if you know, 843 00:40:43,093 --> 00:40:45,652 Speaker 2: they roll up the sleeves in the in the you know, 844 00:40:46,373 --> 00:40:49,013 Speaker 2: a photo op where they're they're out sharing a sheep 845 00:40:49,133 --> 00:40:53,133 Speaker 2: or something. Yeah, it's kind of disingenuous. But if you 846 00:40:53,173 --> 00:40:55,652 Speaker 2: are wealthy and successful and you say you're wealthy and 847 00:40:55,693 --> 00:40:59,853 Speaker 2: it's successful, then in a way, that's just that's just honesty. 848 00:41:00,133 --> 00:41:02,172 Speaker 2: And I can kind of appreciate that. 849 00:41:02,213 --> 00:41:03,853 Speaker 3: It's a hard one. I get your points on any 850 00:41:03,933 --> 00:41:06,213 Speaker 3: but I do wonder in that circumstance, I'm sure he 851 00:41:06,293 --> 00:41:08,333 Speaker 3: said a lot more than what was just quoted there. 852 00:41:08,413 --> 00:41:10,773 Speaker 3: I've picked out one part of an answer that probably 853 00:41:10,813 --> 00:41:12,493 Speaker 3: had a lot more context in it. And that's the 854 00:41:12,733 --> 00:41:14,893 Speaker 3: fair part about it, right, as he might might have 855 00:41:15,013 --> 00:41:19,252 Speaker 3: tried to explain a bit more about Yeah, he's done 856 00:41:19,253 --> 00:41:21,973 Speaker 3: well in life, but can also understand and empathize that 857 00:41:22,133 --> 00:41:25,812 Speaker 3: people who are struggling at the moment need some help 858 00:41:25,853 --> 00:41:27,133 Speaker 3: and that's what he's in for well. 859 00:41:27,653 --> 00:41:30,373 Speaker 2: And what I'd say, Tony, is he maybe he comes 860 00:41:30,413 --> 00:41:34,293 Speaker 2: across not as well on television as he does in 861 00:41:34,333 --> 00:41:36,933 Speaker 2: real life. And he you know, he's going out meeting 862 00:41:36,933 --> 00:41:39,373 Speaker 2: people as the Prime Minister should, but as a person 863 00:41:39,373 --> 00:41:42,652 Speaker 2: that's spent some time with them, you know, and just 864 00:41:42,693 --> 00:41:46,212 Speaker 2: in a broadcasting professional sense, he comes across a lot 865 00:41:46,213 --> 00:41:49,093 Speaker 2: better one on one he does, he's got good chat. 866 00:41:49,893 --> 00:41:52,333 Speaker 2: He does have good chator.

Good discussion last hour, But we're gonna shift 893 00:43:19,693 --> 00:43:21,893 Speaker 3: it up for the next forty five minutes or so. 894 00:43:21,933 --> 00:43:24,413 Speaker 3: We want to talk about what's been called heartbreak leave. 895 00:43:24,973 --> 00:43:27,213 Speaker 3: So a bill in the Philippines is trying to secure 896 00:43:27,253 --> 00:43:30,093 Speaker 3: time off for workers after a breakup, and they think 897 00:43:30,093 --> 00:43:31,933 Speaker 3: it may improve productivity. 898 00:43:32,333 --> 00:43:34,293 Speaker 2: Surely, if that's happening in the Philippines, then it will 899 00:43:34,293 --> 00:43:35,813 Speaker 2: happen here eventually. 900 00:43:36,453 --> 00:43:40,253 Speaker 3: In recognition of the negative emotional baggage they say that 901 00:43:40,333 --> 00:43:45,493 Speaker 3: can come after a relationship breakup breakup. Riccardo Deblado great name, 902 00:43:45,613 --> 00:43:49,093 Speaker 3: chief executive of the cebu Car Century Plaza Hotel in 903 00:43:49,133 --> 00:43:52,853 Speaker 3: the Philippines, last year unveiled an unusual news staff policy 904 00:43:52,933 --> 00:43:56,053 Speaker 3: five paid days of heartbreak leave. So the time off, 905 00:43:56,053 --> 00:43:59,013 Speaker 3: which can be taken annually, provided the breakup is with 906 00:43:59,213 --> 00:44:03,652 Speaker 3: a different person each year, was inspired by Riccardo's own 907 00:44:03,693 --> 00:44:06,293 Speaker 3: experience in the Philippines. The idea is catching on a 908 00:44:06,333 --> 00:44:09,613 Speaker 3: parliamentary bill in February this year proposed that any worker 909 00:44:09,893 --> 00:44:13,213 Speaker 3: going through a romantic breakup should be eligible for up 910 00:44:13,213 --> 00:44:17,173 Speaker 3: to three days of unpaid leave, and employers, it appears 911 00:44:17,213 --> 00:44:20,253 Speaker 3: across the world have increasingly sought to make concessions for 912 00:44:20,293 --> 00:44:23,573 Speaker 3: their workers' personal lives, offering well being days, flexible work 913 00:44:23,853 --> 00:44:27,093 Speaker 3: and in some cases counseling services. So in the UK, 914 00:44:27,293 --> 00:44:30,733 Speaker 3: employeers including Tesco, the Supermarket Chain and Metro Bank have 915 00:44:30,853 --> 00:44:33,573 Speaker 3: targeted break up support to families. Signing up to the 916 00:44:33,613 --> 00:44:37,732 Speaker 3: Parents Promise created by Positive Parenting Alliance and Advocacy Group, 917 00:44:37,973 --> 00:44:40,853 Speaker 3: employers make commitments to help parents who are separating from 918 00:44:40,933 --> 00:44:44,373 Speaker 3: each other, including giving them a chance to work flexibly 919 00:44:44,653 --> 00:44:46,292 Speaker 3: and also giving them days off. 920 00:44:47,253 --> 00:44:49,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, a couple of things on this. I would say 921 00:44:49,093 --> 00:44:52,533 Speaker 2: when you're breaking up with someone that it's best to 922 00:44:52,573 --> 00:44:55,333 Speaker 2: focus in on the positives of your life. Get into work, 923 00:44:55,733 --> 00:44:57,653 Speaker 2: hang out with the people at work, keep the structure 924 00:44:57,693 --> 00:45:00,413 Speaker 2: in your life just for you, going taking outside of 925 00:45:00,413 --> 00:45:04,173 Speaker 2: the issue of employment and your relationship with your work 926 00:45:04,533 --> 00:45:07,133 Speaker 2: and the using of your using of your sick days 927 00:45:07,133 --> 00:45:11,013 Speaker 2: for it. I would say, you get the structure in, 928 00:45:11,093 --> 00:45:13,493 Speaker 2: get back into work the next day. It's all about 929 00:45:13,573 --> 00:45:16,253 Speaker 2: keeping your dignity in the breakup, and it's a great philosophy. 930 00:45:16,573 --> 00:45:19,293 Speaker 2: It's all about making keeping the structures going a foundation 931 00:45:19,413 --> 00:45:22,413 Speaker 2: for your life going forward. So for you much better 932 00:45:22,493 --> 00:45:25,013 Speaker 2: chance of getting that person back if you're seen to 933 00:45:25,053 --> 00:45:27,973 Speaker 2: be out there achieving instead of at home sulking. 934 00:45:28,173 --> 00:45:29,853 Speaker 3: You've got to look good, get down to the gym, 935 00:45:30,253 --> 00:45:31,853 Speaker 3: just better yourself, better for yourself. 936 00:45:31,973 --> 00:45:35,413 Speaker 2: And no one ever got someone back by by taking 937 00:45:35,773 --> 00:45:36,933 Speaker 2: preak leave work. 938 00:45:37,093 --> 00:45:38,773 Speaker 3: Would this be a step too far? I mean, you 939 00:45:39,293 --> 00:45:41,853 Speaker 3: are an employee, you've got you've run businesses in the past, 940 00:45:41,853 --> 00:45:44,453 Speaker 3: and you still run businesses now do you think this 941 00:45:44,653 --> 00:45:48,213 Speaker 3: is just too much? Where does the line or where 942 00:45:48,293 --> 00:45:50,693 Speaker 3: is the line between what a boss is expected to 943 00:45:50,693 --> 00:45:53,893 Speaker 3: do and looking after their employee because effectively bosses are 944 00:45:53,933 --> 00:45:54,613 Speaker 3: like counselors. 945 00:45:54,613 --> 00:45:57,733 Speaker 2: Now, well, I think people forget that bosses, generally speaking, 946 00:45:57,813 --> 00:46:00,853 Speaker 2: really care about the people that they that work for them. 947 00:46:01,413 --> 00:46:03,373 Speaker 2: They sort there's sort of this idea out there that 948 00:46:03,373 --> 00:46:05,373 Speaker 2: they're just trying to use people as hard as they 949 00:46:05,373 --> 00:46:07,732 Speaker 2: can and get everything about them. But most employees spend 950 00:46:07,773 --> 00:46:11,573 Speaker 2: a lot of time worrying about keeping their employees employed, 951 00:46:11,893 --> 00:46:15,652 Speaker 2: and they worry about their families, and there's hardly any 952 00:46:15,653 --> 00:46:19,253 Speaker 2: employees out there that don't spend at least sometime losing sleep, 953 00:46:19,293 --> 00:46:23,293 Speaker 2: worrying about the lives of their employees and feeling responsible 954 00:46:23,293 --> 00:46:27,093 Speaker 2: for them. So I think from that perspective, and you 955 00:46:27,093 --> 00:46:30,013 Speaker 2: know you're not you know, bereavement leave as an example. 956 00:46:30,213 --> 00:46:33,213 Speaker 2: People definitely open with bereavement leaves. So I think there 957 00:46:33,213 --> 00:46:35,853 Speaker 2: wouldn't be many bosses out there that wouldn't go okay. 958 00:46:36,333 --> 00:46:37,933 Speaker 2: And as long as you're not milking it, you know, 959 00:46:38,053 --> 00:46:39,893 Speaker 2: like as the Sticks has said, you get one after 960 00:46:39,933 --> 00:46:42,613 Speaker 2: a one night stand. If someone rings up and says, 961 00:46:45,653 --> 00:46:48,053 Speaker 2: I really like this person but that don't seem to 962 00:46:48,093 --> 00:46:49,253 Speaker 2: like me, I need to take a day off to 963 00:46:49,293 --> 00:46:52,692 Speaker 2: deal with it, then they're no. But I just think 964 00:46:53,253 --> 00:46:55,213 Speaker 2: I just put it back on you, and it's you 965 00:46:55,293 --> 00:46:58,373 Speaker 2: as a person. What's best for you, and what's best 966 00:46:58,373 --> 00:47:00,973 Speaker 2: for you is getting on with your life and not 967 00:47:01,133 --> 00:47:03,573 Speaker 2: changing anything and focusing on the good things as I 968 00:47:03,653 --> 00:47:07,613 Speaker 2: said before, which is your job and your friends and 969 00:47:07,653 --> 00:47:08,973 Speaker 2: the structures in your life. 970 00:47:09,013 --> 00:47:11,813 Speaker 3: Would you prefer an employee to be upfront about it 971 00:47:11,813 --> 00:47:13,853 Speaker 3: that the hey, boss, I've had a break up with 972 00:47:13,893 --> 00:47:16,813 Speaker 3: my long term partner or wife or husband. I'm going 973 00:47:16,853 --> 00:47:19,453 Speaker 3: through a mirror of a time my life and pieces 974 00:47:19,453 --> 00:47:21,333 Speaker 3: at the moment, I need a couple of days off. 975 00:47:21,373 --> 00:47:23,133 Speaker 3: Can I use my heartbreak. 976 00:47:22,693 --> 00:47:24,252 Speaker 2: Leave rather than pretending to be sick? 977 00:47:24,373 --> 00:47:26,453 Speaker 3: Yeah, because that's what most key wes will do it 978 00:47:26,453 --> 00:47:27,853 Speaker 3: at the moment. If they having a bad day for 979 00:47:27,893 --> 00:47:30,252 Speaker 3: whatever reason, call it a mental health day, because that's 980 00:47:30,253 --> 00:47:32,333 Speaker 3: effectively what it is. Right, you're going through some mental 981 00:47:32,373 --> 00:47:34,812 Speaker 3: health issue issues after a breakup that you just say 982 00:47:34,853 --> 00:47:37,053 Speaker 3: I'm feeling a bit sick, I'm not going to come 983 00:47:37,053 --> 00:47:39,373 Speaker 3: in today, and that becomes sick leave. I actually think 984 00:47:39,373 --> 00:47:41,173 Speaker 3: it's better to be more upfront with your employeer and 985 00:47:41,213 --> 00:47:44,013 Speaker 3: say I'm going through some things mentally because of this breakup. 986 00:47:44,333 --> 00:47:46,333 Speaker 3: I need some time so that you can get the 987 00:47:46,333 --> 00:47:47,613 Speaker 3: best out of me when I return. 988 00:47:47,853 --> 00:47:48,013 Speaker 5: Yeah. 989 00:47:48,093 --> 00:47:49,652 Speaker 2: I mean there's another side to that as well, as 990 00:47:49,893 --> 00:47:52,573 Speaker 2: do you want your employee to think that you're mentally 991 00:47:52,653 --> 00:47:57,413 Speaker 2: strong and you know, and the right person for higher honors. 992 00:47:57,453 --> 00:47:59,773 Speaker 2: That's another way to look at it. Yeah, if you're 993 00:47:59,853 --> 00:48:03,933 Speaker 2: keeping reaching out and saying that you needed some time 994 00:48:03,973 --> 00:48:05,893 Speaker 2: off because of heartbreak, you need a time off for 995 00:48:05,973 --> 00:48:08,133 Speaker 2: this and that, then they go, well, as this person 996 00:48:08,733 --> 00:48:12,533 Speaker 2: dependable and they'll probably be empathetic empathetic to you and 997 00:48:12,813 --> 00:48:14,813 Speaker 2: they'll probably give it to you, but in the back 998 00:48:14,853 --> 00:48:17,893 Speaker 2: of their mind they're going to go emotionally week. 999 00:48:18,133 --> 00:48:20,413 Speaker 3: Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty. This is going to 1000 00:48:20,413 --> 00:48:23,373 Speaker 3: be a good discussion.

Michael, you think 1008 00:48:44,293 --> 00:48:45,652 Speaker 3: this is a bit of a step too far. 1009 00:48:46,653 --> 00:48:47,933 Speaker 8: Oh, surely it's a joke. 1010 00:48:48,013 --> 00:48:50,933 Speaker 24: I mean what man worthy sot would ring in Telly's 1011 00:48:50,933 --> 00:48:52,693 Speaker 24: boss he was heartbroken, was having three. 1012 00:48:52,613 --> 00:48:53,252 Speaker 26: Days off work? 1013 00:48:54,013 --> 00:48:57,933 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, it is actually going through Parliament 1014 00:48:57,933 --> 00:49:00,013 Speaker 3: and the Philippines at the moment on the back of 1015 00:49:00,133 --> 00:49:02,732 Speaker 3: this boss of a big hotel chain. He went through 1016 00:49:02,733 --> 00:49:05,732 Speaker 3: a bad breakup, so he thinks his employees need five 1017 00:49:05,853 --> 00:49:07,493 Speaker 3: days to get over it. But a lot of people 1018 00:49:07,493 --> 00:49:10,533 Speaker 3: would agree with you that. I take it you'd be 1019 00:49:11,133 --> 00:49:13,253 Speaker 3: in the same philosophy as Matt that when you go 1020 00:49:13,333 --> 00:49:15,733 Speaker 3: through that sort of stuff. It's it's about the character 1021 00:49:15,773 --> 00:49:17,973 Speaker 3: of who you are to push through and do the 1022 00:49:17,973 --> 00:49:20,013 Speaker 3: best you can and keep going to work and get 1023 00:49:20,013 --> 00:49:22,333 Speaker 3: out of that funk. That's the way through it. Rather 1024 00:49:22,373 --> 00:49:23,893 Speaker 3: than bring up your boss and say I had a 1025 00:49:23,893 --> 00:49:25,252 Speaker 3: bad breakup. I need a day off. 1026 00:49:26,133 --> 00:49:29,093 Speaker 24: Oh exactly, Well, most men deal with breakups are completely 1027 00:49:29,133 --> 00:49:31,573 Speaker 24: different way. They go out, have plenty of bears, and 1028 00:49:32,333 --> 00:49:34,453 Speaker 24: wake up next to someone else the next morning. So 1029 00:49:34,693 --> 00:49:37,453 Speaker 24: I don't think I'm staying home crying about it. It's going 1030 00:49:37,493 --> 00:49:37,813 Speaker 24: to help. 1031 00:49:38,293 --> 00:49:39,933 Speaker 2: So it'd be better to say to your boss, Hey, 1032 00:49:39,973 --> 00:49:42,733 Speaker 2: I'm hungover today because I have had a horrible breakup. 1033 00:49:43,533 --> 00:49:46,293 Speaker 2: I've gone out and I've woken up with someone else, 1034 00:49:46,333 --> 00:49:48,093 Speaker 2: and that's causing working. 1035 00:49:47,973 --> 00:49:50,733 Speaker 24: Up in working up in some random house somewhere else, just. 1036 00:49:50,773 --> 00:49:52,933 Speaker 3: Making my car keys and my wallet. I don't know 1037 00:49:52,973 --> 00:49:54,533 Speaker 3: where I am. I may be late. 1038 00:49:55,453 --> 00:49:58,693 Speaker 24: Yeah, I'm at home crying, watching the notebook with a 1039 00:49:58,733 --> 00:49:59,613 Speaker 24: cover of ice cream. 1040 00:50:01,253 --> 00:50:03,253 Speaker 2: Well, I think there is a point in that as 1041 00:50:03,293 --> 00:50:07,293 Speaker 2: well as what you want to portray to your employer 1042 00:50:07,373 --> 00:50:11,453 Speaker 2: as well. You might have a really empathetic employer that goes, yeah, yeah, 1043 00:50:11,493 --> 00:50:13,652 Speaker 2: you have you have two weeks off, mate, you have 1044 00:50:13,693 --> 00:50:17,493 Speaker 2: two weeks off for your for your heartbreak. But as 1045 00:50:17,493 --> 00:50:23,493 Speaker 2: I said before, they're then going well. Is this person 1046 00:50:23,973 --> 00:50:27,213 Speaker 2: the iron clad, strong minded person that I want to 1047 00:50:27,253 --> 00:50:29,853 Speaker 2: move up the ranks? And so for yourself personally, as 1048 00:50:29,893 --> 00:50:34,293 Speaker 2: I said before, moving through moving through your life. The 1049 00:50:34,333 --> 00:50:37,333 Speaker 2: structure of work is very important and also part of 1050 00:50:37,413 --> 00:50:40,813 Speaker 2: work is trying to move up through your work. So 1051 00:50:41,133 --> 00:50:45,133 Speaker 2: what you portray to your boss may be different from 1052 00:50:45,173 --> 00:50:47,652 Speaker 2: what you portray to your best mates. You have a 1053 00:50:47,693 --> 00:50:49,253 Speaker 2: cry on the shoulder of your best mate and have 1054 00:50:49,293 --> 00:50:51,613 Speaker 2: a beer, tell your boss that I'm sweet as I 1055 00:50:51,653 --> 00:50:54,693 Speaker 2: am strong as an ox, and he goes well, he 1056 00:50:54,773 --> 00:50:58,093 Speaker 2: just went up for a terrible, terrible breakup and his 1057 00:50:58,173 --> 00:50:59,252 Speaker 2: numbers have never been better. 1058 00:50:59,453 --> 00:51:01,133 Speaker 3: Is that a good thing? I mean, I hear what 1059 00:51:01,173 --> 00:51:03,333 Speaker 3: you're saying, and I can understand. You know you're you're 1060 00:51:03,813 --> 00:51:06,693 Speaker 3: a great character and a great philosophy that when something's 1061 00:51:06,733 --> 00:51:09,413 Speaker 3: going wrong, you're going to pull yourself out of that and. 1062 00:51:11,213 --> 00:51:13,373 Speaker 2: Lean on what you've got. You know, in your job, 1063 00:51:13,413 --> 00:51:15,293 Speaker 2: if you're lucky enough to have a job, that is 1064 00:51:15,293 --> 00:51:17,613 Speaker 2: one of the things that you can you can excel 1065 00:51:17,653 --> 00:51:19,973 Speaker 2: at and hang your hat on and something that you're 1066 00:51:19,973 --> 00:51:22,333 Speaker 2: doing well. But when other things are falling to pieces. 1067 00:51:22,453 --> 00:51:24,333 Speaker 3: But Michael, do we not want to be I'll bring 1068 00:51:24,373 --> 00:51:25,573 Speaker 3: you back in here. Do we not want to be 1069 00:51:25,613 --> 00:51:27,253 Speaker 3: honest with our bosses when we're having a bit of 1070 00:51:27,253 --> 00:51:29,973 Speaker 3: a crappy day or we're just not feeling mentally al 1071 00:51:30,053 --> 00:51:32,453 Speaker 3: right for whatever reason, that we can be upfront and say, hey, 1072 00:51:32,613 --> 00:51:34,133 Speaker 3: I'm just feeling a bit off today.

My 1164 00:55:55,453 --> 00:55:57,573 Speaker 2: point of view isn't that it's being Marcho and it's 1165 00:55:57,733 --> 00:56:00,173 Speaker 2: manning up.

Because that's what it comes down to. A 1187 00:56:53,693 --> 00:56:57,413 Speaker 3: lot now that as an employer they now have to 1188 00:56:57,613 --> 00:57:00,253 Speaker 3: consider the mental health and I think that's a good thing. 1189 00:57:00,333 --> 00:57:02,733 Speaker 3: Or a manager they now have to consider what's going 1190 00:57:02,773 --> 00:57:06,253 Speaker 3: on outside of the office for that and they nearly 1191 00:57:06,253 --> 00:57:06,533 Speaker 3: all do. 1192 00:57:06,653 --> 00:57:07,373 Speaker 2: They nearly all do. 1193 00:57:07,573 --> 00:57:10,733 Speaker 3: Yeah, But how much responsibility does the employer have to 1194 00:57:10,773 --> 00:57:12,773 Speaker 3: their their employees home life? 1195 00:57:12,933 --> 00:57:15,293 Speaker 2: Yeah, and in small companies definitely.

In those situations, I guarantee that that most 1200 00:57:27,013 --> 00:57:30,093 Speaker 2: bosses in New Zealand would would be sympathetic to it, 1201 00:57:30,333 --> 00:57:32,453 Speaker 2: but also go good on your mate. You turned up 1202 00:57:32,453 --> 00:57:35,813 Speaker 2: to work and then then they'd really really appreciate you. 1203 00:57:36,373 --> 00:57:37,733 Speaker 3: Cameron, what's your take on it. 1204 00:57:39,253 --> 00:57:42,413 Speaker 19: Well, I've been self employed for fifty years, and my 1205 00:57:42,573 --> 00:57:46,573 Speaker 19: take on it is that okay stuff even five days 1206 00:57:46,573 --> 00:57:50,413 Speaker 19: off for a bit of a marriage best breakup, and 1207 00:57:50,573 --> 00:57:54,453 Speaker 19: I would say, I'm flipping the coin and oh, hey, guys, 1208 00:57:55,013 --> 00:57:58,093 Speaker 19: I've had a bit of a merriage breakup and my 1209 00:57:58,133 --> 00:58:00,933 Speaker 19: wife's taking half the business.

Yes, 1322 01:03:33,773 --> 01:03:37,893 Speaker 27: you might be heartbroken, but who else in the family 1323 01:03:38,653 --> 01:03:42,933 Speaker 27: need support? You may have children. You're not just going 1324 01:03:43,013 --> 01:03:46,013 Speaker 27: to break up and go back to work, because what 1325 01:03:46,133 --> 01:03:48,813 Speaker 27: are you offering to work if you're broken and you 1326 01:03:48,893 --> 01:03:52,053 Speaker 27: haven't sorted this out, and then you might have to 1327 01:03:52,093 --> 01:03:56,533 Speaker 27: move out. But the children come first, yea, and their 1328 01:03:56,653 --> 01:04:00,493 Speaker 27: sanity and their safety. So if you have a few 1329 01:04:00,573 --> 01:04:04,533 Speaker 27: days off to sort this out, get your head back together, 1330 01:04:05,093 --> 01:04:07,733 Speaker 27: then you go back to work. I'm sure you would 1331 01:04:07,733 --> 01:04:11,293 Speaker 27: be a better person to offer to your boss and 1332 01:04:11,373 --> 01:04:15,213 Speaker 27: not have the daily stuff of coming home that kids 1333 01:04:15,213 --> 01:04:19,573 Speaker 27: are upset, your wife's angry and I think this is 1334 01:04:19,613 --> 01:04:21,453 Speaker 27: a pretty blokey conversation. 1335 01:04:21,773 --> 01:04:24,093 Speaker 2: Well, it certainly is. I mean, we're both blokes, so 1336 01:04:24,133 --> 01:04:26,333 Speaker 2: thank you so much for coming in and giving us 1337 01:04:26,373 --> 01:04:28,893 Speaker 2: the female perspective on it. But I would say, in 1338 01:04:28,973 --> 01:04:30,893 Speaker 2: terms of things you can be proud of and dignity 1339 01:04:31,373 --> 01:04:33,693 Speaker 2: and a breakup, the way you look after your children 1340 01:04:33,773 --> 01:04:35,373 Speaker 2: is something that you could hang your hat on. And 1341 01:04:35,413 --> 01:04:38,693 Speaker 2: if you if you make the assessment that what you 1342 01:04:38,733 --> 01:04:42,013 Speaker 2: can do best in life is for your children and 1343 01:04:42,053 --> 01:04:43,813 Speaker 2: be there for them in the breakup and do what's 1344 01:04:43,853 --> 01:04:45,653 Speaker 2: right for them, I would say that that was something 1345 01:04:45,653 --> 01:04:49,253 Speaker 2: that you could feel proud of and as I say, 1346 01:04:49,253 --> 01:04:52,573 Speaker 2: hang your hat on. In terms of dealing with the breakup. 1347 01:04:53,253 --> 01:04:56,533 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, no, but I hear what you're saying, Julia. 1348 01:04:56,533 --> 01:04:58,173 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, thank you very much. But when 1349 01:04:58,213 --> 01:05:03,373 Speaker 3: it comes to divorce and these children involved, and you know, 1350 01:05:03,493 --> 01:05:06,373 Speaker 3: they are incredibly devastating things for a lot of people 1351 01:05:06,413 --> 01:05:08,293 Speaker 3: to go through, not even'body, but a lot of people. 1352 01:05:08,893 --> 01:05:13,213 Speaker 3: And you know, my own parents divorced when I was eleven, 1353 01:05:13,213 --> 01:05:15,333 Speaker 3: and that was an incredibly tough time for both of them. 1354 01:05:15,413 --> 01:05:17,533 Speaker 3: They tried to shield us kids as much as they 1355 01:05:17,533 --> 01:05:18,773 Speaker 3: could and they did a pretty good job. 1356 01:05:18,813 --> 01:05:20,573 Speaker 2: How was it for you, Tyler, if you don't mind 1357 01:05:20,573 --> 01:05:21,013 Speaker 2: me asking. 1358 01:05:21,093 --> 01:05:25,213 Speaker 3: Devastating, evastating for the family. Yeah, and it was a 1359 01:05:25,213 --> 01:05:27,613 Speaker 3: little bit missy, and that was nobody's fault. And it 1360 01:05:27,653 --> 01:05:30,853 Speaker 3: wasn't anybody's fault that the parents decided to split up. 1361 01:05:31,013 --> 01:05:34,133 Speaker 3: And they get on well now they get on okay, 1362 01:05:34,373 --> 01:05:36,413 Speaker 3: But it was it was tough years and I think 1363 01:05:36,493 --> 01:05:39,093 Speaker 3: Dady was running his own sparky firm electrician firm at 1364 01:05:39,093 --> 01:05:41,493 Speaker 3: the time. He tried to push through ended up having 1365 01:05:41,493 --> 01:05:42,453 Speaker 3: to take a few days off. 1366 01:05:42,973 --> 01:05:44,133 Speaker 2: Kewy Fruit involved as well. 1367 01:05:44,413 --> 01:05:46,453 Speaker 3: Yeah, there was yep, we had a Kiwi fruit orchard 1368 01:05:46,533 --> 01:05:48,613 Speaker 3: and that needed to be sold, so that was stressful. 1369 01:05:48,653 --> 01:05:51,453 Speaker 3: They were well, they had plans to turn it into 1370 01:05:51,493 --> 01:05:55,333 Speaker 3: an olive orchard and never quite got to that point, 1371 01:05:55,453 --> 01:05:57,973 Speaker 3: so they made a big loss on that orchard. It 1372 01:05:58,013 --> 01:06:00,173 Speaker 3: was thirteen acres, so that was losing a lot of money. 1373 01:06:00,213 --> 01:06:03,173 Speaker 3: Dadd had to keep running his business. Mum was self 1374 01:06:03,213 --> 01:06:06,773 Speaker 3: employed as well as a contractor. So it was incredibly 1375 01:06:06,853 --> 01:06:08,093 Speaker 3: tough and love. 1376 01:06:08,133 --> 01:06:10,973 Speaker 2: It and as a parent going through a breakup, if 1377 01:06:11,013 --> 01:06:14,253 Speaker 2: you could look back and go, I did right by 1378 01:06:14,253 --> 01:06:17,013 Speaker 2: my kids, then that's something you can feel very proud 1379 01:06:17,053 --> 01:06:21,333 Speaker 2: of and obviously that is the most important thing. Yeah, 1380 01:06:21,373 --> 01:06:23,733 Speaker 2: so then that is part of as I said, that's 1381 01:06:23,733 --> 01:06:25,253 Speaker 2: part of the dignity thing, isn't it. 1382 01:06:25,333 --> 01:06:28,333 Speaker 3: Yeah, very good call eight hundred eighty ten eighty is 1383 01:06:28,373 --> 01:06:31,653 Speaker 3: the number to call. It is twenty three to three. 1384 01:06:31,973 --> 01:06:34,053 Speaker 2: I've got a question for you nine two nine two. 1385 01:06:34,773 --> 01:06:37,573 Speaker 2: What do you think who is more likely to instigate 1386 01:06:37,613 --> 01:06:40,453 Speaker 2: a divorce? Males or females? 1387 01:06:40,573 --> 01:06:42,373 Speaker 3: We'll get the answer very shortly. 1388 01:06:43,653 --> 01:06:47,013 Speaker 1: Matteeth, Tyler Adams taking your calls on oh, eight hundred 1389 01:06:47,013 --> 01:06:51,013 Speaker 1: and eighty eight Matteth and Tyler Adams Afternoons news talks. 1390 01:06:51,053 --> 01:06:54,213 Speaker 3: That'd be very good afternoon to you. It is twenty 1391 01:06:54,253 --> 01:06:56,653 Speaker 3: to three. And before the brain Keith, you had a 1392 01:06:56,693 --> 01:06:58,213 Speaker 3: wee bit of a tease for the audience. 1393 01:06:58,533 --> 01:07:01,973 Speaker 2: Yeah, who is more likely to instigate a divorce? Males 1394 01:07:02,093 --> 01:07:04,813 Speaker 2: or females? I don't have the New Zealand figures, but 1395 01:07:04,853 --> 01:07:09,653 Speaker 2: I've got two other similar countries. In the US females 1396 01:07:09,773 --> 01:07:13,653 Speaker 2: instigate divorce right in the UK sixty two percent females. 1397 01:07:13,813 --> 01:07:15,773 Speaker 3: And what was the key reason did they say that? 1398 01:07:15,813 --> 01:07:18,213 Speaker 2: Well, there's a number of reasons. Obviously there's some real 1399 01:07:18,253 --> 01:07:19,733 Speaker 2: dickheads that people need to get away. 1400 01:07:19,573 --> 01:07:20,693 Speaker 3: From the they can. 1401 01:07:20,773 --> 01:07:23,213 Speaker 2: That's a big part of it. Interestingly, in the States, 1402 01:07:24,053 --> 01:07:28,013 Speaker 2: the woman becoming more wealthy than the man, or more 1403 01:07:28,013 --> 01:07:31,533 Speaker 2: successful in business, it will often lead I'm not sure why, 1404 01:07:31,613 --> 01:07:35,413 Speaker 2: but it will lead to the female going now not 1405 01:07:35,493 --> 01:07:36,653 Speaker 2: into you anymore. 1406 01:07:36,253 --> 01:07:38,453 Speaker 3: And tristing George, how are you this afternoon? 1407 01:07:39,453 --> 01:07:41,533 Speaker 26: Oh, I'm very good. I'm sitting on my dig I've 1408 01:07:41,533 --> 01:07:44,813 Speaker 26: got bushfall around me. Whose sky I'm watching about four 1409 01:07:44,853 --> 01:07:47,893 Speaker 26: two yes lining up to drink off a toy feeder. 1410 01:07:47,973 --> 01:07:51,813 Speaker 3: You're a good man, beautiful. 1411 01:07:50,893 --> 01:07:55,053 Speaker 26: So that's what I'm getting at is that's some mental 1412 01:07:55,373 --> 01:07:59,693 Speaker 26: just serenity, peacefulness. The window is gently blowing and you're 1413 01:07:59,733 --> 01:08:03,413 Speaker 26: discussing the issue. Is that are mental stress? And I 1414 01:08:03,413 --> 01:08:06,853 Speaker 26: think this is really interesting. Now I've got two points. 1415 01:08:07,053 --> 01:08:07,293 Speaker 6: One. 1416 01:08:07,333 --> 01:08:11,093 Speaker 26: When I was eighteen, I had a very lovely girlfriend 1417 01:08:11,133 --> 01:08:14,413 Speaker 26: who decided to give me back my friendship friendship ring 1418 01:08:14,453 --> 01:08:17,933 Speaker 26: i'd given a gold ring I decided to like many more. 1419 01:08:18,293 --> 01:08:21,293 Speaker 26: Now that goes down the same path as when I 1420 01:08:21,333 --> 01:08:24,692 Speaker 26: was married many many years later, and it will split 1421 01:08:24,772 --> 01:08:28,892 Speaker 26: up d you to just circumstances. Both were disasters, but 1422 01:08:28,973 --> 01:08:32,932 Speaker 26: the first one really set my mindset about handling an 1423 01:08:33,053 --> 01:08:38,333 Speaker 26: issue of personal stress. Now, does this mean that schools 1424 01:08:38,372 --> 01:08:41,452 Speaker 26: are also going to allow time off for kids who 1425 01:08:41,452 --> 01:08:46,933 Speaker 26: break up with their girlfriends or boyfriends on Facebook? You 1426 01:08:46,973 --> 01:08:49,812 Speaker 26: know this is a mental stress issue that you're talking about, 1427 01:08:50,173 --> 01:08:52,333 Speaker 26: and when it comes to families. Yes, there's a whole 1428 01:08:52,412 --> 01:08:56,732 Speaker 26: range of circumstances for people. I had to I was 1429 01:08:56,772 --> 01:08:59,732 Speaker 26: self employed. I was running my own business. I couldn't 1430 01:08:59,732 --> 01:09:02,013 Speaker 26: take time off because I had to attend to my 1431 01:09:02,093 --> 01:09:04,772 Speaker 26: customer's needs. They weren't going to say, oh, no, you 1432 01:09:04,853 --> 01:09:07,892 Speaker 26: don't need to come when my computer'sn't working anymore because 1433 01:09:07,933 --> 01:09:10,612 Speaker 26: you have you split up. I went to Social Welfare. 1434 01:09:10,692 --> 01:09:12,852 Speaker 26: I sat down with them. I said, what can you 1435 01:09:12,893 --> 01:09:17,452 Speaker 26: do because I now kicked out the house, And they said, 1436 01:09:17,572 --> 01:09:19,572 Speaker 26: I want you to keep working. I want you to 1437 01:09:19,612 --> 01:09:22,572 Speaker 26: focus on your work. I want you to focus on 1438 01:09:22,652 --> 01:09:25,612 Speaker 26: normal life. I want you to have your head in 1439 01:09:25,652 --> 01:09:29,333 Speaker 26: a normal space while you handle this. So I'm going 1440 01:09:29,333 --> 01:09:33,333 Speaker 26: with Matt on this. He is actually saying the right things. 1441 01:09:33,853 --> 01:09:36,652 Speaker 26: You can't just sit home and mope because you'll just 1442 01:09:36,692 --> 01:09:40,253 Speaker 26: go down the rabbit hole. And when you split up 1443 01:09:40,253 --> 01:09:43,372 Speaker 26: with someone, there's a rabbit hole and it gets very 1444 01:09:43,452 --> 01:09:45,572 Speaker 26: dark for a while. And you hope you get out 1445 01:09:45,572 --> 01:09:47,652 Speaker 26: the other end of the tunnel and you start to 1446 01:09:47,652 --> 01:09:50,572 Speaker 26: see normal daylight again. So there's a whole lot of issues. 1447 01:09:50,612 --> 01:09:54,012 Speaker 26: But do we add this day that you are now promoting, 1448 01:09:54,053 --> 01:09:57,692 Speaker 26: because that's what you're doing to the pet bereavement day. 1449 01:09:58,173 --> 01:10:00,852 Speaker 26: For the way you discussed it on the radio a 1450 01:10:00,893 --> 01:10:03,372 Speaker 26: few weeks back. I'm told you to God to do 1451 01:10:03,492 --> 01:10:06,812 Speaker 26: matter IQI now divorce day. 1452 01:10:08,333 --> 01:10:10,933 Speaker 2: I'm telling you right now, Tyler and George, when my 1453 01:10:11,053 --> 01:10:17,532 Speaker 2: dog Colin passes, I won't be here. Genuinely though, I 1454 01:10:17,572 --> 01:10:19,253 Speaker 2: worry every day every day I see Colin. 1455 01:10:19,532 --> 01:10:21,372 Speaker 3: He's getting older every day. 1456 01:10:22,013 --> 01:10:27,372 Speaker 26: Are we going to also have the America's Cup Lost Day? 1457 01:10:27,652 --> 01:10:30,412 Speaker 28: The Cup day we go? 1458 01:10:30,532 --> 01:10:32,172 Speaker 3: But genuinely, Georgie looked. 1459 01:10:34,372 --> 01:10:35,572 Speaker 2: I probably needed a day off. 1460 01:10:35,732 --> 01:10:38,213 Speaker 3: That absolutely, But George, you know we used to. We 1461 01:10:38,213 --> 01:10:40,612 Speaker 3: had our first rescue, Cecy, and we only had her 1462 01:10:40,652 --> 01:10:42,253 Speaker 3: a couple of years. She was an old dog when 1463 01:10:42,253 --> 01:10:44,133 Speaker 3: we got her. I think you know that. And when 1464 01:10:44,213 --> 01:10:47,933 Speaker 3: set and passed, that was genuinely a devastating day from me. 1465 01:10:47,933 --> 01:10:49,452 Speaker 3: Even talking about it now makes me tear up a 1466 01:10:49,452 --> 01:10:52,252 Speaker 3: little bit because she was the goodest of good dogs. 1467 01:10:52,692 --> 01:10:55,412 Speaker 3: Want that and but I got water in the face. 1468 01:10:55,412 --> 01:10:56,013 Speaker 2: They're good on you. 1469 01:10:56,213 --> 01:10:58,572 Speaker 3: I did show you, guys. 1470 01:10:59,173 --> 01:11:05,612 Speaker 26: We had this beautiful bishon frees Aussie Terrier cross, most 1471 01:11:05,652 --> 01:11:09,013 Speaker 26: amazing dog that I bought that would run longer than 1472 01:11:09,053 --> 01:11:11,452 Speaker 26: what the kids could in the day, and it would 1473 01:11:11,452 --> 01:11:14,013 Speaker 26: still be going, come on, guys, your stuff, But I'm not. 1474 01:11:14,893 --> 01:11:17,052 Speaker 26: It got old enough that we had to put it down. 1475 01:11:17,173 --> 01:11:19,772 Speaker 26: So I went to the vet with the dog and 1476 01:11:19,853 --> 01:11:23,372 Speaker 26: the kids, and I took the afternoon off to go 1477 01:11:23,412 --> 01:11:25,612 Speaker 26: and put the dog down with the kids, and everybody 1478 01:11:25,612 --> 01:11:28,093 Speaker 26: said goodbye to the dog at the same time while 1479 01:11:28,093 --> 01:11:31,253 Speaker 26: they injected it, and then we brought the body home. Now, 1480 01:11:31,333 --> 01:11:35,813 Speaker 26: that is a devastating time to Yes, there is acknowledgement 1481 01:11:35,893 --> 01:11:39,452 Speaker 26: for all this, but you do have annual leave, you 1482 01:11:39,532 --> 01:11:42,812 Speaker 26: do have sick leave which you can take for these issues. 1483 01:11:43,053 --> 01:11:47,093 Speaker 26: Why do an employer now expect to carry the additional 1484 01:11:47,133 --> 01:11:50,492 Speaker 26: expense even if you're not paying for them. You've lost 1485 01:11:50,532 --> 01:11:54,572 Speaker 26: that production from the worker for that day or four days, 1486 01:11:55,013 --> 01:11:58,933 Speaker 26: you know. And we just came going on about productivity 1487 01:11:59,013 --> 01:12:02,532 Speaker 26: in the country, and we kept giving productivity away.

But when my my lovely mum died, 1492 01:12:13,452 --> 01:12:15,053 Speaker 2: and you know, she was the most important person in 1493 01:12:15,053 --> 01:12:18,652 Speaker 2: the world to me. When she died suddenly and she 1494 01:12:18,732 --> 01:12:21,133 Speaker 2: was at the other end of the country, and my 1495 01:12:21,492 --> 01:12:25,372 Speaker 2: dad rang up and you know, looking at what flights 1496 01:12:25,412 --> 01:12:28,333 Speaker 2: I could get down, he said, go to work and 1497 01:12:28,772 --> 01:12:30,932 Speaker 2: then come in and then get their first flight down. 1498 01:12:30,973 --> 01:12:32,652 Speaker 2: You can after that. And he didn't mean that in 1499 01:12:32,732 --> 01:12:36,093 Speaker 2: terms of you know, hard and up or anything that 1500 01:12:36,133 --> 01:12:38,652 Speaker 2: he thought that me going into work would be instead 1501 01:12:38,652 --> 01:12:41,053 Speaker 2: of sitting at home, I'd go to work and then 1502 01:12:41,213 --> 01:12:43,133 Speaker 2: I could I'd fly down. So I was with people, 1503 01:12:43,812 --> 01:12:46,093 Speaker 2: And that's really what I'm saying. I'm saying it was 1504 01:12:46,133 --> 01:12:51,532 Speaker 2: hard to do, and I blubbed on here, but it 1505 01:12:51,572 --> 01:12:54,293 Speaker 2: was It wasn't about being being hard. It was about 1506 01:12:54,293 --> 01:12:59,692 Speaker 2: being around people and doing something and keeping those structures in. 1507 01:12:58,492 --> 01:13:01,973 Speaker 3: My life as a support structures as a. 1508 01:13:01,973 --> 01:13:04,412 Speaker 2: Way to get through to the you know, the flight 1509 01:13:04,492 --> 01:13:08,533 Speaker 2: down and moving into the funeral stage of things.

I think we're going off topic a little 1517 01:13:31,133 --> 01:13:34,412 Speaker 29: bit today. You know. It's there's so much lead at 1518 01:13:34,412 --> 01:13:38,333 Speaker 29: the moment. But we do have ten days mental stress days, 1519 01:13:38,812 --> 01:13:41,253 Speaker 29: and surely that would come under that kind of a thing. 1520 01:13:41,293 --> 01:13:43,532 Speaker 29: But but if you were going to do it, you 1521 01:13:43,692 --> 01:13:45,852 Speaker 29: want to do it on like a Wednesday or a Monday, 1522 01:13:45,853 --> 01:13:48,333 Speaker 29: wouldn't you, So you could have a really long, bloody weekend. 1523 01:13:49,732 --> 01:13:52,213 Speaker 2: Do it like the teacher the other teachers down Friday. 1524 01:13:53,293 --> 01:13:57,012 Speaker 29: The other thing is that the end of the day, 1525 01:13:57,652 --> 01:13:59,612 Speaker 29: things happened for a reason. Like I've had a lot 1526 01:13:59,612 --> 01:14:04,372 Speaker 29: of partners and thought I was and loved, but I 1527 01:14:04,452 --> 01:14:08,692 Speaker 29: obviously wasn't. And I'm a real big believer in things 1528 01:14:08,933 --> 01:14:11,132 Speaker 29: happening for a reason. And I've been with my partner 1529 01:14:11,452 --> 01:14:14,492 Speaker 29: for twenty five years and I had to kiss a 1530 01:14:14,492 --> 01:14:15,972 Speaker 29: lot of frogs to find my princess. 1531 01:14:16,812 --> 01:14:18,212 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeap. 1532 01:14:18,173 --> 01:14:23,172 Speaker 2: Very good. Well, Well that's I mean, it's not helpful 1533 01:14:23,173 --> 01:14:25,372 Speaker 2: when you break up for someone to say, wow, there's 1534 01:14:25,372 --> 01:14:26,812 Speaker 2: plenty of other fish in the sea, because it doesn't 1535 01:14:26,812 --> 01:14:31,253 Speaker 2: seem like there is. Yeah, but arguably it's true. Yeah, 1536 01:14:31,372 --> 01:14:33,253 Speaker 2: and things you may look back and go, well, that 1537 01:14:33,333 --> 01:14:33,812 Speaker 2: was a good thing. 1538 01:14:33,973 --> 01:14:34,133 Speaker 6: You know. 1539 01:14:34,452 --> 01:14:36,412 Speaker 3: Good call Kerry, nice to check mate.

A situation where I worked with the 1553 01:15:17,253 --> 01:15:21,612 Speaker 30: bloke some years ago and his relationship relationship had fallen apart, 1554 01:15:22,372 --> 01:15:25,652 Speaker 30: and he was married, well married with kids, and she 1555 01:15:25,812 --> 01:15:28,932 Speaker 30: decided to move back to Waddington, and so I'd been 1556 01:15:28,973 --> 01:15:31,572 Speaker 30: pre arranged that one month's time at work she would 1557 01:15:31,612 --> 01:15:33,572 Speaker 30: come in with the kids so he could say his goodbyes. 1558 01:15:34,732 --> 01:15:37,012 Speaker 30: And you know that poor guy.

He was sort of holding back tears. 1560 01:15:41,013 --> 01:15:42,852 Speaker 30: You know, he was trying to at the same time 1561 01:15:42,933 --> 01:15:47,932 Speaker 30: he was stoic and blokey. So you know, I would 1562 01:15:47,933 --> 01:15:50,213 Speaker 30: have thought of that situation, he could have spent time 1563 01:15:50,253 --> 01:15:54,612 Speaker 30: with the kids or you know, yeah, because his focus 1564 01:15:54,612 --> 01:15:55,973 Speaker 30: would have been totally elsewhere. 1565 01:15:57,093 --> 01:15:59,293 Speaker 2: Did you how did you deal with that? Glean? Did 1566 01:15:59,333 --> 01:16:02,333 Speaker 2: you did you go past shoulder or anything. 1567 01:16:02,333 --> 01:16:05,213 Speaker 30: I felt like I felt like crying for the black 1568 01:16:05,253 --> 01:16:07,093 Speaker 30: of town, like he was crying on the inside. Did 1569 01:16:07,133 --> 01:16:09,772 Speaker 30: He was all stoic bloke having a little bit of 1570 01:16:09,812 --> 01:16:10,173 Speaker 30: a laugh. 1571 01:16:13,133 --> 01:16:13,253 Speaker 6: You know. 1572 01:16:13,293 --> 01:16:17,052 Speaker 30: I think we encouraged that we have you needed anything, 1573 01:16:17,133 --> 01:16:21,692 Speaker 30: call of us. We were available. You know, it'd since 1574 01:16:21,772 --> 01:16:24,133 Speaker 30: we've done and gotten to another relationship as lot of 1575 01:16:24,213 --> 01:16:30,412 Speaker 30: guys do. But that particular time he could you know, 1576 01:16:30,532 --> 01:16:32,133 Speaker 30: his focus was totally elsewhere. 1577 01:16:32,452 --> 01:16:35,053 Speaker 3: Yeah, but as good he had you there, Glenn. You 1578 01:16:35,133 --> 01:16:37,652 Speaker 3: know that you were an important support structure as life. 1579 01:16:38,333 --> 01:16:41,253 Speaker 30: I mean, we're young blokes ourselves, and we're all about 1580 01:16:41,293 --> 01:16:44,293 Speaker 30: sort of chasing women. And this is going back about 1581 01:16:44,293 --> 01:16:47,692 Speaker 30: thirty years ago, back in the nineties, so you know 1582 01:16:48,133 --> 01:16:50,053 Speaker 30: the news is I really felt for the guard and 1583 01:16:50,093 --> 01:16:51,492 Speaker 30: I told one of our I think one of my 1584 01:16:51,572 --> 01:16:55,652 Speaker 30: female supervisors, and she, yeah, she was quite a ghast 1585 01:16:55,652 --> 01:16:56,372 Speaker 30: of what had happened. 1586 01:16:57,692 --> 01:17:00,532 Speaker 2: Yeah, so rough when kids are involved, and if kids 1587 01:17:00,532 --> 01:17:02,532 Speaker 2: got taken away from you as well as the breakup, 1588 01:17:02,612 --> 01:17:05,093 Speaker 2: that that's pretty rough. Here, care that is pretty rough 1589 01:17:05,093 --> 01:17:06,932 Speaker 2: when they go through a breakup and then the kids 1590 01:17:06,933 --> 01:17:08,612 Speaker 2: get moved to another another city. 1591 01:17:09,772 --> 01:17:12,293 Speaker 3: You're starting to change your mind on this heartbreak leave 1592 01:17:12,372 --> 01:17:13,892 Speaker 3: while that's slightly different, isn't it. 1593 01:17:14,093 --> 01:17:16,492 Speaker 2: No, I mean because I'm not talking about it from 1594 01:17:16,572 --> 01:17:20,492 Speaker 2: anyone's point of view except for your own, and their 1595 01:17:20,612 --> 01:17:24,852 Speaker 2: routine is helpful. Sometimes you need other things to be doing, 1596 01:17:25,692 --> 01:17:27,652 Speaker 2: and that doesn't mean you're not facing it. 1597 01:17:28,093 --> 01:17:30,692 Speaker 3: But I'm not about taking a concrete It's it's about 1598 01:17:30,732 --> 01:17:33,732 Speaker 3: leaning into those support structures in your life. And for you, 1599 01:17:33,732 --> 01:17:36,653 Speaker 3: you've been very lucky that those support structures have existed 1600 01:17:37,013 --> 01:17:37,812 Speaker 3: in your workplace. 1601 01:17:37,933 --> 01:17:39,892 Speaker 2: Yeah. But the other thing I would say is that 1602 01:17:40,333 --> 01:17:42,213 Speaker 2: everyone thinks the best idea, and a few people suggest 1603 01:17:42,213 --> 01:17:43,612 Speaker 2: it is that you get some beers with your mates 1604 01:17:43,652 --> 01:17:47,053 Speaker 2: and go out and hopefully meet someone else. If you 1605 01:17:47,053 --> 01:17:50,012 Speaker 2: could possibly not do that drinking side of it, because 1606 01:17:50,253 --> 01:17:52,652 Speaker 2: there's one thing going for a breakup, then not going 1607 01:17:52,692 --> 01:17:54,932 Speaker 2: to work because you're having a heartbreak day that they've 1608 01:17:55,013 --> 01:17:56,973 Speaker 2: reached out to it to your boss and got and 1609 01:17:57,013 --> 01:18:00,333 Speaker 2: then you've got a raging hangover full of the anxiety, 1610 01:18:00,933 --> 01:18:04,852 Speaker 2: anxiety and anxiety that you get from a hangover.

Some good teachs coming through. 2049 01:39:04,973 --> 01:39:09,213 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, so the percentage is twelve percent percent of 2050 01:39:09,532 --> 01:39:12,012 Speaker 2: all people, but that wasn't one of my options. Twenty 2051 01:39:12,013 --> 01:39:16,333 Speaker 2: percent of adults, twenty percent of kiwis assigned up to gym. 2052 01:39:16,333 --> 01:39:19,772 Speaker 2: That that doesn't say how many people are actually regularly going. 2053 01:39:20,213 --> 01:39:22,173 Speaker 2: Because I'm on the wall at my gym is a 2054 01:39:22,213 --> 01:39:24,812 Speaker 2: gym legend, So I'm actually my name is listed on 2055 01:39:24,812 --> 01:39:25,692 Speaker 2: the wall as a gym legend. 2056 01:39:25,772 --> 01:39:26,293 Speaker 3: What does that mean? 2057 01:39:26,412 --> 01:39:29,333 Speaker 2: It means people that continued paying right through COVID lockdowns. 2058 01:39:29,893 --> 01:39:31,732 Speaker 2: But that was because I wasn't aware I was still 2059 01:39:31,772 --> 01:39:34,612 Speaker 2: paying because I'd signed up. You know, you do that 2060 01:39:34,652 --> 01:39:36,412 Speaker 2: sign up in January because you're going to make your 2061 01:39:36,452 --> 01:39:38,213 Speaker 2: life better and then you just pay to be there. 2062 01:39:38,452 --> 01:39:41,053 Speaker 2: But so twenty percent of adults are signed up to 2063 01:39:41,133 --> 01:39:43,732 Speaker 2: a gym. 2064 01:39:42,812 --> 01:39:45,253 Speaker 3: That's in fact.

I reckon that would rock it 2071 01:40:00,133 --> 01:40:03,372 Speaker 3: up to about fifty percent. Drop back off absolutely, well, 2072 01:40:03,452 --> 01:40:06,092 Speaker 3: you know if you remember to cancel it. Brigid bad 2073 01:40:06,133 --> 01:40:08,732 Speaker 3: behavior at the gym?

And then one 2083 01:40:33,652 --> 01:40:35,173 Speaker 31: day I went into the gym and this woman was 2084 01:40:35,173 --> 01:40:38,012 Speaker 31: there and she was drying her hair, drying her hair, 2085 01:40:38,093 --> 01:40:39,812 Speaker 31: and then she gave it a blast in the front 2086 01:40:39,933 --> 01:40:43,012 Speaker 31: and toot in the back, and I thought, oh, it's horrible. 2087 01:40:43,053 --> 01:40:44,372 Speaker 31: I don't want to use the hair dryer as if 2088 01:40:44,412 --> 01:40:49,772 Speaker 31: you've been using it for that as well in front 2089 01:40:49,812 --> 01:40:51,852 Speaker 31: of everybody. It's a really big there's a whole big 2090 01:40:51,893 --> 01:40:55,132 Speaker 31: sort of U shaped area with hair dryers. So I thought, okay, 2091 01:40:55,532 --> 01:40:59,013 Speaker 31: So when he got the Fitness First logo and did 2092 01:40:59,013 --> 01:41:00,692 Speaker 31: a made up a little sticker and it had a 2093 01:41:00,732 --> 01:41:03,173 Speaker 31: sort of silhouette of a human. It had the logo 2094 01:41:03,293 --> 01:41:05,772 Speaker 31: and it had a hair dry pointing down there with 2095 01:41:05,853 --> 01:41:06,372 Speaker 31: a cross. 2096 01:41:06,572 --> 01:41:08,213 Speaker 7: So it was an international sticker. 2097 01:41:08,492 --> 01:41:10,412 Speaker 31: You know, you didn't need to speak English to understand. 2098 01:41:10,933 --> 01:41:14,372 Speaker 31: And then I went around the gym when there were 2099 01:41:14,492 --> 01:41:17,372 Speaker 31: many people there and stuck these stickers by all the 2100 01:41:17,412 --> 01:41:22,053 Speaker 31: hair dryers and the woman room. And because they were official, 2101 01:41:22,973 --> 01:41:24,732 Speaker 31: I could. After about a month, I owned up to 2102 01:41:24,772 --> 01:41:27,492 Speaker 31: the reception.
