1 00:00:07,173 --> 00:00:10,453 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Saturday Morning with Jack Team podcast 2 00:00:10,613 --> 00:00:15,853 Speaker 1: from Newstalks EDB start your weekend off in style. Saturday 3 00:00:15,893 --> 00:00:19,333 Speaker 1: Mornings with Jack Team and Bpure dot co dot inst 4 00:00:19,453 --> 00:00:21,733 Speaker 1: for high quality supplements used talks. 5 00:00:21,533 --> 00:00:51,133 Speaker 2: EDB eighteen losses out of twenty one games. Just think 6 00:00:51,173 --> 00:00:54,493 Speaker 2: about that, eighteen losses out of twenty one games. That 7 00:00:54,773 --> 00:00:58,093 Speaker 2: was the White Ferns record heading into this T twenty 8 00:00:58,173 --> 00:01:01,213 Speaker 2: World Cup. They make the semifinal, it comes down to 9 00:01:01,253 --> 00:01:05,093 Speaker 2: the last over fifteen runs required for the West Indies 10 00:01:05,133 --> 00:01:07,453 Speaker 2: to make the final and knock the White Ferns out. 11 00:01:07,653 --> 00:01:10,013 Speaker 2: Susie Bates has handed the ball for the first time 12 00:01:10,133 --> 00:01:12,973 Speaker 2: in the entire tournament. The first ball of that last 13 00:01:13,013 --> 00:01:16,813 Speaker 2: over goes to the boundary four runs. The White Ferns 14 00:01:16,853 --> 00:01:19,533 Speaker 2: have been penalized. They can only have three players outside 15 00:01:19,573 --> 00:01:22,613 Speaker 2: the ring because of the over eight penalty. That means 16 00:01:22,653 --> 00:01:26,693 Speaker 2: their defenses with what eleven runs left, are as thin 17 00:01:26,813 --> 00:01:29,293 Speaker 2: as as possible in this format of the game. What 18 00:01:29,333 --> 00:01:32,533 Speaker 2: does Susie Baits do? She steps up to the moment, 19 00:01:32,773 --> 00:01:37,213 Speaker 2: Big time players, make big time plays. An extraordinary last 20 00:01:37,253 --> 00:01:43,333 Speaker 2: few balls dot wicket one dot White Ferns win. Remarkable 21 00:01:44,053 --> 00:01:46,293 Speaker 2: given that lost eighteen out of the last twenty one 22 00:01:46,373 --> 00:01:48,773 Speaker 2: games that they should be making the final of the 23 00:01:48,813 --> 00:01:52,133 Speaker 2: T twenty Women's World Cup. My goodness, it is a 24 00:01:52,133 --> 00:01:54,333 Speaker 2: crazy weekend of sport. It is one of those like 25 00:01:54,413 --> 00:01:56,133 Speaker 2: for this time of year when we don't actually have 26 00:01:56,173 --> 00:02:00,573 Speaker 2: any rug beyond we have a remarkable smallas board of 27 00:02:00,933 --> 00:02:04,173 Speaker 2: sporting delights this weekend. We've got Liam Lawson, we've got 28 00:02:04,213 --> 00:02:06,013 Speaker 2: football on this weekend of course, and we've got the 29 00:02:06,053 --> 00:02:08,613 Speaker 2: black Caps in a remarkable position against India. So we're 30 00:02:08,613 --> 00:02:10,373 Speaker 2: gonna be looking at all of that this morning on 31 00:02:10,453 --> 00:02:13,093 Speaker 2: News Talks. He'd be as well as that. After ten o'clock, 32 00:02:13,133 --> 00:02:17,093 Speaker 2: our feature interview is the author of Warhorse, Michael Morpurgo 33 00:02:17,253 --> 00:02:19,013 Speaker 2: is going to be with us from the UK. He's 34 00:02:19,173 --> 00:02:25,773 Speaker 2: just he is such a uniquely talented storyteller. So I'm 35 00:02:25,773 --> 00:02:27,693 Speaker 2: going to ask him about his latest book. I'm gonna 36 00:02:27,733 --> 00:02:30,413 Speaker 2: ask him about his time with Roald Dahl as well. 37 00:02:30,493 --> 00:02:32,213 Speaker 2: So really looking forward to that. He's gonna be with 38 00:02:32,293 --> 00:02:34,053 Speaker 2: us after ten o'clock this morning. Right now, it is 39 00:02:34,133 --> 00:02:38,093 Speaker 2: nine minutes past nine, Jack dam, I gotta say I 40 00:02:38,253 --> 00:02:42,933 Speaker 2: never thought I would support Auckland in anything, in anything, 41 00:02:43,013 --> 00:02:46,013 Speaker 2: I mean, duh, I'm from christ Church. So when I 42 00:02:46,053 --> 00:02:48,253 Speaker 2: was a kid, you know I was, it was a 43 00:02:48,293 --> 00:02:53,813 Speaker 2: given that Aucklands were nothing more than lata swilling, overpriced 44 00:02:53,893 --> 00:02:58,493 Speaker 2: haircut donning ostentatious sports car driving prima donnas. You know 45 00:02:58,653 --> 00:03:05,373 Speaker 2: it was a given. And look, my parochialism isn't the 46 00:03:05,413 --> 00:03:10,373 Speaker 2: only force working against Auckland City FC. When the brand 47 00:03:10,413 --> 00:03:13,373 Speaker 2: new club kicks off in its very first A League 48 00:03:13,373 --> 00:03:16,173 Speaker 2: match this evening, it faces the unique challenge that comes 49 00:03:16,493 --> 00:03:19,053 Speaker 2: from trying to launch a new team and a new 50 00:03:19,133 --> 00:03:23,213 Speaker 2: club and a competition that is already well established. Just 51 00:03:23,253 --> 00:03:26,693 Speaker 2: think about it, right, Most of the teams we support 52 00:03:27,213 --> 00:03:32,173 Speaker 2: in different sports have either been around since the competition's 53 00:03:32,173 --> 00:03:36,933 Speaker 2: inception or have built up a fan base over years 54 00:03:37,013 --> 00:03:40,373 Speaker 2: or even decades. You know, I support the Crusaders because 55 00:03:40,413 --> 00:03:42,493 Speaker 2: I was born and raised in christ Church, and when 56 00:03:42,533 --> 00:03:46,653 Speaker 2: Super Rugby was established, they were the team of everyone 57 00:03:46,693 --> 00:03:50,293 Speaker 2: in my life. Makes sense. I support Liverpool in the 58 00:03:50,333 --> 00:03:52,253 Speaker 2: English Premier League because when I was six or seven 59 00:03:52,293 --> 00:03:55,093 Speaker 2: years old and watching football highlights on the news, I 60 00:03:55,213 --> 00:03:58,533 Speaker 2: asked my dad, who's English and who likes football, what 61 00:03:58,733 --> 00:04:02,213 Speaker 2: English club we support? He said, ERH, Liverpool, I guess, 62 00:04:02,533 --> 00:04:05,773 Speaker 2: and so I stuck with that the Warriors. They inspire 63 00:04:05,773 --> 00:04:08,493 Speaker 2: my loyal to because for all the highs and lows, 64 00:04:08,533 --> 00:04:12,613 Speaker 2: and yes there are so many lows, they have endured 65 00:04:12,653 --> 00:04:17,973 Speaker 2: for thirty years and never really shaken off the underdog status. 66 00:04:18,213 --> 00:04:21,053 Speaker 2: And hey, they are the New Zealand Warriors, don't forget, 67 00:04:21,253 --> 00:04:25,373 Speaker 2: not the Auckland Warriors. So we're good theoretically at least. 68 00:04:25,773 --> 00:04:28,413 Speaker 2: It is a bit harder to inspire loyalty in a 69 00:04:28,453 --> 00:04:31,613 Speaker 2: team that arrives late to the party, especially when that 70 00:04:31,693 --> 00:04:35,133 Speaker 2: team is the third Auckland based professional football club to 71 00:04:35,133 --> 00:04:39,013 Speaker 2: compete in the Australian Top League rip to the Auckland 72 00:04:39,093 --> 00:04:44,333 Speaker 2: Kings with the zugh and the New Zealand Knights. Also, 73 00:04:44,973 --> 00:04:47,613 Speaker 2: I really love the Phoenix. I love the Wellington Phoenix. 74 00:04:47,653 --> 00:04:50,973 Speaker 2: I love the fan culture and the club has been 75 00:04:51,173 --> 00:04:53,573 Speaker 2: out playing so well over the last few years. I 76 00:04:53,573 --> 00:04:56,813 Speaker 2: don't know, maybe I'm wrong, but I think there's a 77 00:04:56,893 --> 00:05:00,293 Speaker 2: risk that any rivalry in a Kiwi Darby in the 78 00:05:00,333 --> 00:05:04,213 Speaker 2: a League, the Phoenix versus the Knights could just feel 79 00:05:04,253 --> 00:05:07,893 Speaker 2: a little bit forced bab at least early on. Right. 80 00:05:08,773 --> 00:05:11,333 Speaker 2: But for all of that, I've got to say Auckland 81 00:05:11,413 --> 00:05:16,573 Speaker 2: FC has one massive dynamic working in its favor People 82 00:05:16,613 --> 00:05:22,173 Speaker 2: in the nine are so ready for a proper football team. 83 00:05:22,373 --> 00:05:26,213 Speaker 2: They are so ready for this moment. You see it 84 00:05:26,253 --> 00:05:28,893 Speaker 2: every time the Phoenix play at Eden Park, you see 85 00:05:28,933 --> 00:05:30,533 Speaker 2: it at all Whites games, You see it on the 86 00:05:30,573 --> 00:05:35,013 Speaker 2: sidelines of however many thousand junior football games on Saturday mornings. 87 00:05:35,213 --> 00:05:38,013 Speaker 2: Sure it might take a few seasons to deepen the 88 00:05:38,053 --> 00:05:40,773 Speaker 2: well of loyalty for the club, but you would be 89 00:05:40,813 --> 00:05:43,733 Speaker 2: hard pressed to find a city or a market on 90 00:05:43,893 --> 00:05:48,693 Speaker 2: Earth that isn't hungrier for a team to support. And 91 00:05:48,773 --> 00:05:53,813 Speaker 2: so tonight I will be there. I will be one 92 00:05:53,893 --> 00:05:56,253 Speaker 2: of the more than twenty thousand at a sold out 93 00:05:56,253 --> 00:05:59,573 Speaker 2: go Media Stadium. I must have a dozen friends attending. 94 00:05:59,613 --> 00:06:03,053 Speaker 2: We're all taking kids. Some have already bought season passes. 95 00:06:03,853 --> 00:06:06,973 Speaker 2: You can hold the fancy haircut, you can hold the lattes. 96 00:06:07,693 --> 00:06:12,253 Speaker 2: But I will be proudly crossing the rubicon, dressed in blue. 97 00:06:12,773 --> 00:06:15,333 Speaker 2: And if, in years to come anyone should question my 98 00:06:15,453 --> 00:06:19,933 Speaker 2: loyalty to AFC, well at least I can say I 99 00:06:20,053 --> 00:06:24,613 Speaker 2: was there from day one. Jack Tam ninety two. Ninety 100 00:06:24,613 --> 00:06:26,013 Speaker 2: two is a text number.

But they have given the record coming 156 00:08:54,293 --> 00:08:57,053 Speaker 2: into this competition, uh, and the pressure that was on 157 00:08:57,093 --> 00:08:58,933 Speaker 2: the White Ferns, and given how they have performed, I 158 00:08:58,973 --> 00:09:01,213 Speaker 2: just think I don't think it's incredible.

There's been warnings that 169 00:09:35,253 --> 00:09:39,573 Speaker 4: it may well have been the flight the Auckland. 170 00:09:39,133 --> 00:09:41,373 Speaker 6: Of christ Church flight in New Zealand light. 171 00:09:42,773 --> 00:09:44,613 Speaker 4: And in a way, if it was, it doesn't matter, 172 00:09:44,653 --> 00:09:47,893 Speaker 4: because the thing is that for me, seeing the comet, 173 00:09:48,093 --> 00:09:50,693 Speaker 4: or what at least I thought was the comet, filled 174 00:09:50,733 --> 00:09:53,693 Speaker 4: me with awe. It gave me much to think about. 175 00:09:54,013 --> 00:09:57,173 Speaker 4: It's a comment that the newspapers tell me hasn't been 176 00:09:57,213 --> 00:10:01,573 Speaker 4: seen in our skies for eighty thousand years now. I 177 00:10:01,613 --> 00:10:04,133 Speaker 4: don't know how anyone could have seen it in our 178 00:10:04,173 --> 00:10:07,453 Speaker 4: skies eighty thousand years ago. The human history of New 179 00:10:07,533 --> 00:10:11,333 Speaker 4: Zealand Onty dates back what seven hundred years? There wouldn't 180 00:10:11,333 --> 00:10:14,173 Speaker 4: have been anybody here to see it. Maybe some animals 181 00:10:14,253 --> 00:10:18,253 Speaker 4: or birds, perhaps eighty thousand years. It's a hell of 182 00:10:18,293 --> 00:10:22,373 Speaker 4: a long time ago. The world's first ever structures had 183 00:10:22,413 --> 00:10:27,333 Speaker 4: only just been built by Homo Sabbians in Africa. But 184 00:10:27,453 --> 00:10:31,333 Speaker 4: what I found more consuming was looking ahead because other 185 00:10:31,413 --> 00:10:35,453 Speaker 4: reports reckon Comet twenty twenty three A three won't be 186 00:10:35,533 --> 00:10:39,453 Speaker 4: seen in our skies for another eighty thousand years. I'm 187 00:10:39,453 --> 00:10:41,773 Speaker 4: not sure if that's correct. Actually, but it made me 188 00:10:41,853 --> 00:10:45,253 Speaker 4: consider how we're all going to be looking in eighty 189 00:10:45,333 --> 00:10:49,853 Speaker 4: thousand years. We're going to be dust. Jack, You the 190 00:10:49,973 --> 00:10:53,893 Speaker 4: handsome young guy, me the old guy, are finally going 191 00:10:53,933 --> 00:10:59,853 Speaker 4: to be looking the same, indistinguishable just dust. If you're 192 00:10:59,853 --> 00:11:02,213 Speaker 4: miss seeing the comet this week, Jack, we can say 193 00:11:02,213 --> 00:11:04,813 Speaker 4: with a large degree of confidence you're not going to 194 00:11:04,853 --> 00:11:08,093 Speaker 4: see it next time. Then it went through my mind, 195 00:11:08,293 --> 00:11:11,533 Speaker 4: will there be anybody living in New Zealand to see 196 00:11:11,573 --> 00:11:14,693 Speaker 4: the comment in eighty thousand years time, in the year 197 00:11:14,813 --> 00:11:18,493 Speaker 4: eighty two and twenty four, will there be anybody still 198 00:11:18,573 --> 00:11:23,653 Speaker 4: living on this planet anywhere? I put all these huge 199 00:11:23,733 --> 00:11:28,533 Speaker 4: questions to Linda, my wife, but unbelievably, she was more 200 00:11:28,573 --> 00:11:32,053 Speaker 4: interested in whether Christian Cullen was going to win celebrity Treasurialah. 201 00:11:33,333 --> 00:11:36,613 Speaker 4: Sometimes Jack, I wonder how Linda and I have survived 202 00:11:36,733 --> 00:11:38,173 Speaker 4: forty six years of marriage. 203 00:11:38,173 --> 00:11:42,053 Speaker 2: It's probably precisely why you've survived forty six years of marriage. 204 00:11:42,053 --> 00:11:46,933 Speaker 2: I would think, given, yeah, Ah, that is that is 205 00:11:47,893 --> 00:11:50,573 Speaker 2: so special that you saw it. It's funny, Oh, how 206 00:11:51,133 --> 00:11:53,453 Speaker 2: like there's something primal in us, like when you have 207 00:11:53,573 --> 00:11:56,733 Speaker 2: that a little cosmic connection, like I just find it. Honestly, 208 00:11:57,053 --> 00:11:58,973 Speaker 2: you know, because I spend so much time in cities. 209 00:11:59,093 --> 00:12:02,173 Speaker 2: When I'm out in the wilderness and I see stars, 210 00:12:01,853 --> 00:12:05,293 Speaker 2: I've there's something quite profound that happens. You know, there's 211 00:12:05,533 --> 00:12:07,373 Speaker 2: where you get that scene that you just you are 212 00:12:07,453 --> 00:12:09,093 Speaker 2: just to speak of dust and the context of the 213 00:12:09,213 --> 00:12:13,293 Speaker 2: entire universe. You know, it's something there's something really, yeah, 214 00:12:13,373 --> 00:12:17,093 Speaker 2: really really profound about that. And honestly something profound about 215 00:12:17,093 --> 00:12:20,213 Speaker 2: watching Christian Cullen on SBRI Trusa Island as well. I 216 00:12:20,253 --> 00:12:22,373 Speaker 2: loved it. I thought he was he was the star 217 00:12:22,533 --> 00:12:24,333 Speaker 2: for me, you know, the way. 218 00:12:24,613 --> 00:12:30,213 Speaker 4: For me too, the way that's quite slightly awkward kind 219 00:12:30,213 --> 00:12:34,693 Speaker 4: of guy apart from when he played the game, was 220 00:12:34,733 --> 00:12:37,253 Speaker 4: going to turn out to be the star, the lovely, 221 00:12:37,333 --> 00:12:37,933 Speaker 4: lovely guy. 222 00:12:38,093 --> 00:12:40,213 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, but but not not only that. I just 223 00:12:40,213 --> 00:12:43,573 Speaker 2: loved episode one when Michelle Langstone was so excited to 224 00:12:43,613 --> 00:12:45,933 Speaker 2: be camping and out and he was like, I hate 225 00:12:46,813 --> 00:12:49,613 Speaker 2: I hate camping, I hate sleeping around other people. I 226 00:12:49,653 --> 00:12:52,013 Speaker 2: don't really like the outdoors. And then he already say 227 00:12:52,013 --> 00:12:54,973 Speaker 2: he said, I haven't really done any exercise since I 228 00:12:55,053 --> 00:12:59,613 Speaker 2: stopped playing rugby years ago.

Yes, the White Ferns were gee, 279 00:15:55,133 --> 00:15:58,173 Speaker 8: they did. They were trying to lose that game. In 280 00:15:58,253 --> 00:16:03,613 Speaker 8: certain parts of the match.

And remember they had their restrictions on 288 00:16:19,933 --> 00:16:22,053 Speaker 2: because the over eight so they could only have three 289 00:16:22,053 --> 00:16:23,613 Speaker 2: players outside the circle lead. 290 00:16:23,573 --> 00:16:25,453 Speaker 8: Days and T twenty crickets for scene. 291 00:16:25,213 --> 00:16:27,653 Speaker 2: Ain't too much really, no, not at all, especially when 292 00:16:27,693 --> 00:16:30,293 Speaker 2: the first ball goes for four, so then Windy's needed 293 00:16:30,333 --> 00:16:33,093 Speaker 2: eleven off five and yeah, big time players made big 294 00:16:33,133 --> 00:16:34,333 Speaker 2: time players, you know it was. 295 00:16:34,573 --> 00:16:37,333 Speaker 8: It was amazing, even though she hadn't bowled the whole tournament. 296 00:16:37,573 --> 00:16:40,373 Speaker 8: You'd struggle to find someone else to throw the ball 297 00:16:40,413 --> 00:16:44,933 Speaker 8: to with that sort of experience. Young Eden Carson took 298 00:16:44,933 --> 00:16:48,253 Speaker 8: three wickets merely kerk two.

They obviously go very fast 335 00:18:44,173 --> 00:18:47,093 Speaker 8: and they're pulling a huge amount of gs through every corner. 336 00:18:47,173 --> 00:18:47,373 Speaker 2: Yeah. 337 00:18:47,533 --> 00:18:51,533 Speaker 8: I know his dad was watching intently with in cooka 338 00:18:51,573 --> 00:18:54,613 Speaker 8: cod this morning.

That game could still go 351 00:19:30,853 --> 00:19:31,333 Speaker 8: either way. 352 00:19:31,653 --> 00:19:35,533 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll be honest with you, I'm a little bit nervous, yes, 353 00:19:35,853 --> 00:19:39,133 Speaker 2: little bit and a little bit nervy, but I don't 354 00:19:39,613 --> 00:19:43,133 Speaker 2: winniful Day five. Yeah, yeah, it's going to rain pressures. 355 00:19:43,253 --> 00:19:46,493 Speaker 8: And then we must mention Auckland f see very different 356 00:19:47,013 --> 00:19:49,653 Speaker 8: I think, very different field. Jack You may you may 357 00:19:49,853 --> 00:19:52,413 Speaker 8: agree to disagree. Different feel to this team compared to 358 00:19:52,453 --> 00:19:54,973 Speaker 8: the Knights or the other Auckland teams that have been 359 00:19:55,013 --> 00:19:55,853 Speaker 8: in the A League. 360 00:19:55,853 --> 00:19:56,293 Speaker 9: This has the. 361 00:19:56,373 --> 00:20:02,213 Speaker 8: Real sort of star feel to it. Obviously, big time 362 00:20:02,293 --> 00:20:05,173 Speaker 8: owners it will attract a lot of star power the 363 00:20:05,213 --> 00:20:10,413 Speaker 8: game today. Stephen Adams on the ownership group, just I 364 00:20:10,413 --> 00:20:13,133 Speaker 8: think these are how times have changed. Twenty thirty years ago, 365 00:20:14,093 --> 00:20:16,493 Speaker 8: an Auckland team in the A League wouldn't have guarded 366 00:20:16,573 --> 00:20:21,533 Speaker 8: too much attention. But because we live in these times 367 00:20:21,533 --> 00:20:23,893 Speaker 8: of social media and influencing and what have you, is 368 00:20:24,013 --> 00:20:26,453 Speaker 8: this has developed quite a big following already. They're thinking 369 00:20:26,493 --> 00:20:27,493 Speaker 8: about twenty thousand. 370 00:20:27,853 --> 00:20:30,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going to be there today, so yeah, got 371 00:20:30,133 --> 00:20:30,373 Speaker 2: on you. 372 00:20:30,453 --> 00:20:31,013 Speaker 4: We'll wait and see. 373 00:20:31,213 --> 00:20:33,293 Speaker 2: Yeah, how they go. I think it's gonna be. I 374 00:20:33,333 --> 00:20:36,173 Speaker 2: think the moment is now. There's just there's so much 375 00:20:36,213 --> 00:20:36,773 Speaker 2: demand for it. 376 00:20:36,773 --> 00:20:42,293 Speaker 8: And then yeah, huge footballing, huge footballing audience in Auckland. Yeah, 377 00:20:42,333 --> 00:20:46,133 Speaker 8: and they need but the bottom line Jackers though, they 378 00:20:46,213 --> 00:20:47,933 Speaker 8: need to win or they need to perform on the 379 00:20:47,933 --> 00:20:51,053 Speaker 8: field to have that to keep, to keep that support. 380 00:20:51,173 --> 00:20:52,613 Speaker 4: But let's see how they go. 381 00:20:52,693 --> 00:20:53,733 Speaker 8: Good to start so far. 382 00:20:53,973 --> 00:20:56,893 Speaker 2: Very good.

So everyone goes 388 00:21:09,613 --> 00:21:11,453 Speaker 2: in thinking like, oh, you know, I'm going to like 389 00:21:11,973 --> 00:21:16,053 Speaker 2: come across as a really good person.

When Culley 394 00:21:26,613 --> 00:21:29,013 Speaker 2: Sidley came through on that front.

She's been active since nineteen 422 00:22:41,973 --> 00:22:44,333 Speaker 2: seventy nine, so yeah, I think we probably should stop 423 00:22:44,373 --> 00:22:49,053 Speaker 2: saying she's back. Anyway. So we've got two different films 424 00:22:49,093 --> 00:22:51,053 Speaker 2: to talk about this morning. I'm going to start off 425 00:22:51,173 --> 00:22:53,573 Speaker 2: by having a little bit of a listen to our 426 00:22:53,573 --> 00:22:56,093 Speaker 2: first one. This is merchant Ivory. 427 00:22:57,653 --> 00:23:00,933 Speaker 5: Merchant Ivory, it was just a golden period. 428 00:23:03,213 --> 00:23:08,213 Speaker 9: I mean, basically, they made the films they wanted to meet. 429 00:23:10,133 --> 00:23:13,573 Speaker 12: It required an immense amount of stamina to work for 430 00:23:13,613 --> 00:23:14,413 Speaker 12: Merchant Ivory. 431 00:23:14,733 --> 00:23:17,733 Speaker 14: At the end of every movie, everyone says never again. 432 00:23:19,253 --> 00:23:23,733 Speaker 2: Okay. So this is a documentary looking at the relationship 433 00:23:23,773 --> 00:23:27,533 Speaker 2: between the director, James Ivory and the producer Ishmael Merchant. 434 00:23:28,133 --> 00:23:28,413 Speaker 8: Yes. 435 00:23:28,533 --> 00:23:30,613 Speaker 11: And so this is Screening is part of the British 436 00:23:30,613 --> 00:23:33,253 Speaker 11: and Irish Film Festival and it is kicking off on 437 00:23:33,333 --> 00:23:35,853 Speaker 11: the twenty third of October. It's running to the thirteenth 438 00:23:35,893 --> 00:23:39,133 Speaker 11: of November. I love this festival because it really does 439 00:23:39,573 --> 00:23:42,053 Speaker 11: go across the country. It's going to be in twenty cities. 440 00:23:42,093 --> 00:23:45,133 Speaker 11: It's got about thirty cinema partners and they've got a 441 00:23:45,173 --> 00:23:49,013 Speaker 11: really great program this year. And this documentary of Screening 442 00:23:49,053 --> 00:23:51,173 Speaker 11: is part of the Film Festival, and it takes a 443 00:23:51,213 --> 00:23:53,893 Speaker 11: look at this film company that took art house period 444 00:23:53,973 --> 00:23:57,173 Speaker 11: drama and turned them into sort of mainstream global hits. 445 00:23:57,493 --> 00:23:59,893 Speaker 11: And the company was founded in the sixties by Ismael 446 00:23:59,973 --> 00:24:02,493 Speaker 11: Merchant who is mentioned as the producer, and James Ivory, 447 00:24:02,493 --> 00:24:04,933 Speaker 11: who was the director writer, and they were life and 448 00:24:05,053 --> 00:24:08,173 Speaker 11: business partners from aboutnineteen sixty one through to Merchant's death 449 00:24:08,173 --> 00:24:11,093 Speaker 11: in two thousand and five. And they also work with 450 00:24:11,533 --> 00:24:17,133 Speaker 11: Ruth Bucko, who scripted a lot of their films as well. 451 00:24:17,493 --> 00:24:19,573 Speaker 11: In the eighties they became very well known. They did 452 00:24:19,613 --> 00:24:21,933 Speaker 11: a series of films such as Quartete, Heat and Dust 453 00:24:22,013 --> 00:24:24,813 Speaker 11: and The Bostonians. But in nineteen eighty five they released 454 00:24:24,813 --> 00:24:27,293 Speaker 11: A Room with a View, and many of our listeners 455 00:24:27,293 --> 00:24:33,373 Speaker 11: will remember this film. It kind of encapsulated what merchant 456 00:24:33,453 --> 00:24:36,853 Speaker 11: Ivory was all about. They were renowned for creating films 457 00:24:36,853 --> 00:24:41,893 Speaker 11: that resonated universally. They had these lush settings, beautiful music, 458 00:24:41,933 --> 00:24:45,013 Speaker 11: and these complex characters and launched many careers and then 459 00:24:45,093 --> 00:24:48,853 Speaker 11: often worked regularly with the same cast films such as 460 00:24:48,893 --> 00:24:51,733 Speaker 11: Morris Howard's End, Remains of the Day, Jefferson and Paris 461 00:24:51,733 --> 00:24:56,093 Speaker 11: Surviving Potasso, So that all these films will ring a bell, 462 00:24:56,133 --> 00:24:58,053 Speaker 11: and they came from this one production company. But the 463 00:24:58,053 --> 00:25:01,413 Speaker 11: same about merchant Ivory was even thong. They were hugely successful. 464 00:25:01,533 --> 00:25:03,733 Speaker 11: The way that kind of films were distributed and things 465 00:25:03,773 --> 00:25:09,413 Speaker 11: in those days. They never had any money. So Eshmael 466 00:25:09,613 --> 00:25:13,573 Speaker 11: was a firecrackers that everybody calls them, sort of like 467 00:25:13,653 --> 00:25:16,293 Speaker 11: lots of people, a lot of famous names. In this film, 468 00:25:16,333 --> 00:25:18,293 Speaker 11: they call him a corn artist, and he was just 469 00:25:18,613 --> 00:25:20,213 Speaker 11: he was a night me to deal with. He never 470 00:25:20,253 --> 00:25:22,053 Speaker 11: had enough money he never paid on time. 471 00:25:22,493 --> 00:25:22,893 Speaker 9: He'd say. 472 00:25:22,973 --> 00:25:26,413 Speaker 11: He sort of said to one one costume designer, and 473 00:25:26,453 --> 00:25:30,533 Speaker 11: I think that there were four costumed four people working 474 00:25:30,533 --> 00:25:33,053 Speaker 11: on costumes with the room of the views, like hundreds 475 00:25:33,053 --> 00:25:35,293 Speaker 11: and hundreds of them, he said. Afterwards, on the next 476 00:25:35,293 --> 00:25:37,573 Speaker 11: film she worked on, he said, Ah, I got you 477 00:25:37,613 --> 00:25:39,133 Speaker 11: an oscar? Do I really need to pay you? And 478 00:25:39,173 --> 00:25:41,453 Speaker 11: she's like, yeah, you kind of do. So there's all 479 00:25:41,493 --> 00:25:44,773 Speaker 11: these fabulous stories and Hugh Grant talks about it as 480 00:25:44,773 --> 00:25:46,933 Speaker 11: being a wonderful time in filmmaking, and he says, in 481 00:25:46,973 --> 00:25:49,813 Speaker 11: those days, we fancied each other on seat, you know, 482 00:25:49,933 --> 00:25:52,973 Speaker 11: the sick crackled with subliminal lust. 483 00:25:53,013 --> 00:25:54,253 Speaker 13: And nowadays you go. 484 00:25:54,213 --> 00:25:56,253 Speaker 11: On set, you go on seat and everyone's just sitting 485 00:25:56,253 --> 00:25:59,053 Speaker 11: there on their phones, not communicating. So lots of wonderful 486 00:25:59,093 --> 00:26:02,333 Speaker 11: stories about the background. So they just constantly struggled to 487 00:26:02,333 --> 00:26:04,533 Speaker 11: get these films up and running. And then you had 488 00:26:04,613 --> 00:26:07,973 Speaker 11: James who was just this gentle choir director and people 489 00:26:08,053 --> 00:26:10,093 Speaker 11: talk about he was just so calm. They were just 490 00:26:10,293 --> 00:26:12,853 Speaker 11: they were they were just complete opposites who came together 491 00:26:12,933 --> 00:26:16,053 Speaker 11: to create some incredibly well known films.

This is 499 00:26:40,773 --> 00:26:43,773 Speaker 11: a new take on the Odyssey, but it kind of 500 00:26:43,853 --> 00:26:46,773 Speaker 11: starts after all the actions taken off and it kind 501 00:26:46,773 --> 00:26:50,213 Speaker 11: of picks up when our hero returns home after being 502 00:26:50,213 --> 00:26:52,413 Speaker 11: away for twenty years, and it's really the story of 503 00:26:52,613 --> 00:26:56,533 Speaker 11: him reuniting with his wife Penelope and finds of Anosha. 504 00:26:56,613 --> 00:26:59,533 Speaker 11: Both really remarkable.

But this adaptation, 506 00:27:02,493 --> 00:27:05,813 Speaker 11: it's very stripped back. It's kind of got a theatrical 507 00:27:06,013 --> 00:27:08,813 Speaker 11: edge to it.

Yeah, 563 00:29:46,933 --> 00:29:48,853 Speaker 2: I love a carrot cake. But I only really I 564 00:29:48,893 --> 00:29:53,893 Speaker 2: got into a hummingbird cake vibe because I I've mentioned 565 00:29:53,933 --> 00:29:56,093 Speaker 2: them before, but I'm a huge fan of Ripe Cafe 566 00:29:56,213 --> 00:29:59,213 Speaker 2: and Deli and Auckland. Yes, yeah, and they make me 567 00:29:59,333 --> 00:30:02,173 Speaker 2: of your prey. Oh my gosh, they make this ridiculously 568 00:30:02,413 --> 00:30:06,413 Speaker 2: decadent hummingbird cake. In fact, I got one for my 569 00:30:06,413 --> 00:30:08,813 Speaker 2: wife recently, and it was a classic thing where I 570 00:30:08,813 --> 00:30:10,893 Speaker 2: sort of I ordered a cake that I wanted for 571 00:30:10,893 --> 00:30:15,013 Speaker 2: her birthday, and then of course I did, and then 572 00:30:15,053 --> 00:30:16,733 Speaker 2: it just turns out that she loves it even more 573 00:30:16,773 --> 00:30:18,813 Speaker 2: than me. So you know that's fine. 574 00:30:19,053 --> 00:30:21,893 Speaker 16: Oh You're a match. You're a match made in heaven exactly. 575 00:30:22,373 --> 00:30:24,973 Speaker 16: And look, I agree with you anyone who loves a 576 00:30:24,973 --> 00:30:27,973 Speaker 16: carrot cake. Actually, anyone who loves a banana cake as well. 577 00:30:28,413 --> 00:30:31,373 Speaker 16: I feel like the hummingbird cake is definitely not the 578 00:30:31,493 --> 00:30:35,133 Speaker 16: humble hummingbird cake. It really does take those two cakes, 579 00:30:35,413 --> 00:30:38,533 Speaker 16: the banana and the carrot cake, to the next level. 580 00:30:39,373 --> 00:30:41,333 Speaker 16: A lot of people haven't heard of hummingbird cake? 581 00:30:41,813 --> 00:30:42,213 Speaker 3: What is that? 582 00:30:43,133 --> 00:30:44,973 Speaker 16: You'll see it a lot in cafes, but no one 583 00:30:45,013 --> 00:30:47,173 Speaker 16: really asks, oh, you know, what's the story with it? 584 00:30:47,413 --> 00:30:49,253 Speaker 16: I like to say it is if a carrot or 585 00:30:49,293 --> 00:30:51,693 Speaker 16: a banana cake went on a bit of a Jamaican 586 00:30:51,773 --> 00:30:54,133 Speaker 16: holiday and they meet up with a bit of pineapple, 587 00:30:54,653 --> 00:30:59,413 Speaker 16: some warming spices and had a good old time out 588 00:30:59,493 --> 00:31:01,013 Speaker 16: for a bit of coconut and there if you like 589 00:31:01,053 --> 00:31:05,653 Speaker 16: as well, it's awesome, it's great. Look this recipe here, 590 00:31:05,733 --> 00:31:07,973 Speaker 16: So I know you mean. I sometimes make a sort 591 00:31:08,013 --> 00:31:12,173 Speaker 16: of four layered hummingbird cake that is quite extravagant and extraordinary, 592 00:31:12,213 --> 00:31:14,613 Speaker 16: and if I was running right cafe, that's also what 593 00:31:14,653 --> 00:31:17,333 Speaker 16: I would do. However, this one is a nice, little 594 00:31:17,413 --> 00:31:20,333 Speaker 16: humble version. It makes a nice, neat little cake that 595 00:31:20,413 --> 00:31:22,333 Speaker 16: you can split through the middle and put some of 596 00:31:22,373 --> 00:31:25,173 Speaker 16: the frosting in there. So this is what we get, 597 00:31:25,213 --> 00:31:27,213 Speaker 16: what we do for the cake. One and a half 598 00:31:27,253 --> 00:31:29,413 Speaker 16: cup you're going to get all of the dry ingredients together. 599 00:31:29,533 --> 00:31:32,213 Speaker 16: One and a half cups of just plain flour. You 600 00:31:32,253 --> 00:31:35,893 Speaker 16: could substitute one and a quarter cups of gluten free 601 00:31:35,893 --> 00:31:38,173 Speaker 16: flour if you like. Three quarters of a cups of 602 00:31:38,613 --> 00:31:42,293 Speaker 16: brown sugar, half a cup of dessicated coconut. I don't 603 00:31:42,333 --> 00:31:45,573 Speaker 16: always put coconut in my hummingbird. You could leave it out. 604 00:31:46,173 --> 00:31:46,533 Speaker 9: I don't know. 605 00:31:46,573 --> 00:31:49,773 Speaker 16: Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. One heat teaspoon of cinnamon. 606 00:31:50,573 --> 00:31:52,773 Speaker 16: You could also put some allspice in there as well, 607 00:31:52,813 --> 00:31:56,173 Speaker 16: maybe half a teaspoon and then half a teaspoon each 608 00:31:56,333 --> 00:31:59,333 Speaker 16: of baking powder and baking soda. Both of those are 609 00:31:59,333 --> 00:32:01,773 Speaker 16: going to give our cakes some lift. So you're gonna 610 00:32:01,893 --> 00:32:03,453 Speaker 16: just whisk all of that up, all of those dry 611 00:32:03,573 --> 00:32:07,133 Speaker 16: ingredients in one bowl, in another bowl to beat together. 612 00:32:07,213 --> 00:32:10,933 Speaker 16: Two medium to large eggs, three quarters a cup of oil. 613 00:32:11,013 --> 00:32:13,613 Speaker 16: I think this is the key for this cake. It 614 00:32:13,693 --> 00:32:17,213 Speaker 16: is so moist and fantastic without being gluggy, and it's 615 00:32:17,213 --> 00:32:19,573 Speaker 16: because it's got oil. And I think that really is 616 00:32:19,773 --> 00:32:22,333 Speaker 16: the key. With some cakes, I use grape seed oil. 617 00:32:23,733 --> 00:32:23,893 Speaker 4: Two. 618 00:32:23,973 --> 00:32:24,933 Speaker 17: I just I just do you. 619 00:32:25,173 --> 00:32:30,213 Speaker 16: With my bananas, I've got to two ripe bananas. Two 620 00:32:30,253 --> 00:32:34,293 Speaker 16: ripe bananas, I just throw in there, and I don't 621 00:32:34,293 --> 00:32:36,773 Speaker 16: bother to sort of mash them beforehand, because that's another 622 00:32:36,813 --> 00:32:37,853 Speaker 16: dish that I need to wash. 623 00:32:37,973 --> 00:32:39,613 Speaker 12: What I do is I just break off bits. 624 00:32:39,413 --> 00:32:41,133 Speaker 16: And then I beat it all together with the oil, 625 00:32:41,853 --> 00:32:43,533 Speaker 16: and then what you want to do is you want 626 00:32:43,573 --> 00:32:47,173 Speaker 16: to pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and 627 00:32:47,173 --> 00:32:50,973 Speaker 16: then add in one cup of crushed pineapple with about 628 00:32:51,013 --> 00:32:54,693 Speaker 16: a quarter of a cup of juice and just stir 629 00:32:54,773 --> 00:32:56,693 Speaker 16: all of that together to well, you've got a lovely batter. 630 00:32:56,733 --> 00:33:00,293 Speaker 16: Don't overmix it. Scrape that batter into a tin I've got. 631 00:33:00,413 --> 00:33:02,893 Speaker 16: You can use anything from a twenty to a twenty 632 00:33:03,013 --> 00:33:07,573 Speaker 16: three centimeat around tin that you've greased and mind oven 633 00:33:07,693 --> 00:33:10,333 Speaker 16: is on one eighty and it takes a good while, 634 00:33:10,573 --> 00:33:14,093 Speaker 16: you know, forty five to fifty five minutes, and the 635 00:33:14,093 --> 00:33:17,173 Speaker 16: price of their variation and the time there is really 636 00:33:17,173 --> 00:33:19,293 Speaker 16: because if you've got a smaller tin, it's going to 637 00:33:19,293 --> 00:33:21,253 Speaker 16: be a deeper cake and it'll take about ten to 638 00:33:21,253 --> 00:33:23,613 Speaker 16: fifteen minutes longer to cook. You want to make sure 639 00:33:23,613 --> 00:33:27,133 Speaker 16: a skewer comes out nice and clean, and then rest 640 00:33:27,253 --> 00:33:30,213 Speaker 16: that cake for about ten minutes before you turn it out. 641 00:33:31,293 --> 00:33:33,493 Speaker 16: And of course, I wonder Jack if the bit you 642 00:33:33,613 --> 00:33:36,413 Speaker 16: really love about a humming bird cake is the icing 643 00:33:36,453 --> 00:33:37,613 Speaker 16: which has cream cheese in it. 644 00:33:37,773 --> 00:33:39,813 Speaker 2: I honestly think that is a big part of it. 645 00:33:39,853 --> 00:33:42,213 Speaker 2: If I'm totally which is how I can a cat 646 00:33:42,453 --> 00:33:45,493 Speaker 2: to a carrot cake. Yeah, yes, I mean you know, 647 00:33:45,693 --> 00:33:49,093 Speaker 2: it's not a bad thing. Yeah, it's not a bad thing, 648 00:33:49,733 --> 00:33:52,453 Speaker 2: especially if you can do how to take that down? Yeah?

That's that slightly bird biscuity 653 00:34:04,293 --> 00:34:06,573 Speaker 16: kind of butter. You just melt it in a pot. 654 00:34:06,613 --> 00:34:09,573 Speaker 16: It sounds flashed, but it's super easy. You keep cooking it. 655 00:34:09,573 --> 00:34:13,253 Speaker 16: It'll splutter away. Keep that spluttering going for about four 656 00:34:13,253 --> 00:34:17,133 Speaker 16: to six minutes until it's spluttering stops. Turn the temperature 657 00:34:17,133 --> 00:34:19,693 Speaker 16: down a little bit, and then it'll start to foam 658 00:34:19,733 --> 00:34:22,613 Speaker 16: and it starts to brown because that's the milk solids 659 00:34:23,253 --> 00:34:26,213 Speaker 16: getting getting cooked. If you like, and it smells all biscuity, 660 00:34:26,453 --> 00:34:29,413 Speaker 16: you want it to have that lovely nutty aroma. Cool 661 00:34:29,493 --> 00:34:32,413 Speaker 16: that completely. So I often do that this part before 662 00:34:32,453 --> 00:34:34,173 Speaker 16: I start making the cake, all whilst the. 663 00:34:34,213 --> 00:34:35,053 Speaker 15: Cake is cooking. 664 00:34:35,293 --> 00:34:37,973 Speaker 16: Once it's called you want to beat that with, you know, 665 00:34:37,973 --> 00:34:40,853 Speaker 16: two hundred and fifty grams of full fat yes I 666 00:34:40,933 --> 00:34:44,893 Speaker 16: mean full fat cream cheese and round about one to 667 00:34:44,973 --> 00:34:47,333 Speaker 16: one and a half cups of icing sugar and make 668 00:34:47,373 --> 00:34:51,333 Speaker 16: sure your icing sugar is nice and chilled, and that'll 669 00:34:51,333 --> 00:34:53,933 Speaker 16: stop it going too running. And you smother that all 670 00:34:53,973 --> 00:34:57,133 Speaker 16: over the cooled cake. Maybe, as I mentioned at the start, 671 00:34:57,293 --> 00:34:58,813 Speaker 16: you know, split it in the middle and put some 672 00:34:58,853 --> 00:35:00,893 Speaker 16: of the frosting in the middle, and then you've got 673 00:35:00,933 --> 00:35:03,893 Speaker 16: this beautiful two laid cake with still a nice, big 674 00:35:03,973 --> 00:35:05,493 Speaker 16: thick layer of icing on top. 675 00:35:06,533 --> 00:35:09,293 Speaker 2: To do what they do.

People tell me things, And 788 00:40:54,533 --> 00:40:57,373 Speaker 9: in this case it was a friend of ours who 789 00:40:58,373 --> 00:41:01,093 Speaker 9: decided he was going to do a two hundred and 790 00:41:01,213 --> 00:41:06,693 Speaker 9: fifty mile walk from the west coast of Wales to London, 791 00:41:07,453 --> 00:41:09,173 Speaker 9: and he was going to do it to raise money 792 00:41:09,213 --> 00:41:13,133 Speaker 9: for a charity we run called Farms for City Children, 793 00:41:13,173 --> 00:41:19,293 Speaker 9: which gets children from the cities here in England, London, Birmingham, Bristol, Manchester. 794 00:41:20,013 --> 00:41:22,653 Speaker 9: They come to the farm in Devon and they live 795 00:41:22,733 --> 00:41:24,613 Speaker 9: and work on this farm. And two others at the 796 00:41:24,693 --> 00:41:26,453 Speaker 9: charity run. So he was going to help us by 797 00:41:26,493 --> 00:41:29,373 Speaker 9: raising money and doing this walk. I said, why are 798 00:41:29,413 --> 00:41:31,573 Speaker 9: you doing this walk? And you know what road will 799 00:41:31,613 --> 00:41:33,773 Speaker 9: you be taking? So well, I'm going on the drovers road. 800 00:41:35,013 --> 00:41:36,773 Speaker 9: And I didn't know what a drove all was, but 801 00:41:36,853 --> 00:41:39,973 Speaker 9: I had no real idea that you could walk the 802 00:41:40,013 --> 00:41:43,133 Speaker 9: same route at all. But he had researched it extremely 803 00:41:43,213 --> 00:41:47,573 Speaker 9: carefully and he set off this was last year, walking 804 00:41:47,613 --> 00:41:52,093 Speaker 9: all the way from Pembrokeshire in South Wales up to London, 805 00:41:52,653 --> 00:41:56,293 Speaker 9: which was the route followed by the drovers of old 806 00:41:56,293 --> 00:41:59,533 Speaker 9: who for thousands of years, and I mean literally thousands 807 00:41:59,573 --> 00:42:01,773 Speaker 9: of years, it was the only way to get your 808 00:42:01,813 --> 00:42:06,173 Speaker 9: animals to market. So your cows and your sheep, even 809 00:42:06,213 --> 00:42:10,533 Speaker 9: your geese, everything that you grew on the farm, raised 810 00:42:10,573 --> 00:42:12,893 Speaker 9: on the farm had to find a market. And where 811 00:42:12,893 --> 00:42:14,853 Speaker 9: were the markets. They were always in the big cities, 812 00:42:14,853 --> 00:42:18,413 Speaker 9: the big towns. No lorries, no trains, no other way 813 00:42:18,453 --> 00:42:22,253 Speaker 9: of getting except to walk them there. And so what 814 00:42:22,293 --> 00:42:27,013 Speaker 9: they did they would set off with'd say two hundred 815 00:42:27,053 --> 00:42:30,373 Speaker 9: cattle and five hundred sheep, and they'd have a dog 816 00:42:30,573 --> 00:42:32,573 Speaker 9: or several dogs, depending on the side of the flock, 817 00:42:32,613 --> 00:42:34,333 Speaker 9: and all these animals would have been gathered from the 818 00:42:34,373 --> 00:42:37,653 Speaker 9: farms all around and they set off on this incredible 819 00:42:37,733 --> 00:42:40,893 Speaker 9: journey of two hundred and fifty miles twenty miles a day. 820 00:42:41,093 --> 00:42:45,533 Speaker 9: They'd go, staying in inns on the way, but the 821 00:42:45,573 --> 00:42:48,093 Speaker 9: problem was that the dogs really didn't go in the 822 00:42:48,173 --> 00:42:51,733 Speaker 9: ends much. They would be left outside guarding the animals 823 00:42:51,733 --> 00:42:54,253 Speaker 9: against rustlers anyone who would like to steal any of 824 00:42:55,053 --> 00:42:57,853 Speaker 9: and they cattle themselves and the sheep. They'd be grazing 825 00:42:57,893 --> 00:42:59,933 Speaker 9: the grass and there would be a river or a pond, 826 00:43:00,333 --> 00:43:02,853 Speaker 9: so they were very specific where they should be these 827 00:43:02,933 --> 00:43:05,333 Speaker 9: inns they had to be where animals could be safe 828 00:43:05,333 --> 00:43:08,173 Speaker 9: and safely grown. And the next day they'd set off 829 00:43:08,173 --> 00:43:10,693 Speaker 9: again and they would do twenty miles a day, twenty 830 00:43:10,693 --> 00:43:13,053 Speaker 9: miles a day, and end up in London. And what 831 00:43:13,133 --> 00:43:18,653 Speaker 9: I discovered was remarkable is that in the South Wales 832 00:43:19,133 --> 00:43:22,853 Speaker 9: the dog they used was a corgy. The corgies in 833 00:43:22,853 --> 00:43:25,373 Speaker 9: this country are generally known as the pet which used 834 00:43:25,413 --> 00:43:30,533 Speaker 9: to be adored by our Lake Queen, Queen Elizabeth, I 835 00:43:30,533 --> 00:43:33,253 Speaker 9: think had about seven of them, so they got very 836 00:43:33,253 --> 00:43:34,933 Speaker 9: well known in the country. And they were pretty well 837 00:43:34,973 --> 00:43:37,813 Speaker 9: known anyway, but hundreds of years ago. These were little 838 00:43:38,133 --> 00:43:41,533 Speaker 9: droving dogs and that's what their job was. They would 839 00:43:41,573 --> 00:43:44,133 Speaker 9: go all the way to London. And the really special 840 00:43:44,133 --> 00:43:46,333 Speaker 9: thing about the whole story, which his man told me, 841 00:43:46,493 --> 00:43:50,573 Speaker 9: was this that when they got to London, the drovers, 842 00:43:50,613 --> 00:43:54,773 Speaker 9: who were pretty tough guys bandage, wanted to do the 843 00:43:54,813 --> 00:43:56,973 Speaker 9: business they had to do, which was the selling of 844 00:43:57,013 --> 00:43:59,893 Speaker 9: the animals, which of course belonged to other farmers. They 845 00:43:59,893 --> 00:44:03,373 Speaker 9: were just doing the droving, but they had to sell 846 00:44:03,413 --> 00:44:08,133 Speaker 9: the animals and do the business, get the money. And 847 00:44:08,253 --> 00:44:09,693 Speaker 9: I expect they want to have a good time in 848 00:44:09,773 --> 00:44:12,933 Speaker 9: London or berme or wherever it was. And here's the thing. 849 00:44:12,973 --> 00:44:16,893 Speaker 9: They would turn around to the dogs and say. 850 00:44:17,413 --> 00:44:21,733 Speaker 2: Go home, and he would go hard, and. 851 00:44:22,653 --> 00:44:25,093 Speaker 9: The dog would go back two one hundred and fifty 852 00:44:25,173 --> 00:44:28,013 Speaker 9: miles to where it came from, just like a swallow, 853 00:44:28,813 --> 00:44:32,573 Speaker 9: just like a salmon. And they had this ability. But 854 00:44:32,853 --> 00:44:34,933 Speaker 9: the interesting thing is it was sort of encouraged in 855 00:44:34,973 --> 00:44:37,533 Speaker 9: a way because at each of the inns on the 856 00:44:37,573 --> 00:44:41,853 Speaker 9: way down the drover had left some money so that 857 00:44:41,933 --> 00:44:44,693 Speaker 9: as the dogs went by the same route there was 858 00:44:44,773 --> 00:44:47,253 Speaker 9: food to feed them all the way back to Wales. Wow, 859 00:44:47,293 --> 00:44:50,693 Speaker 9: and I thought, that's that's a story. That mostly no 860 00:44:50,693 --> 00:44:53,533 Speaker 9: one knows, So why don't you tell that tale? That's 861 00:44:53,533 --> 00:44:53,973 Speaker 9: what I did? 862 00:44:54,093 --> 00:44:58,893 Speaker 2: That is extraordinary. That really is remarkable, isn't it. And Michael, 863 00:44:58,933 --> 00:45:01,653 Speaker 2: you've said that this book has what you think is 864 00:45:01,653 --> 00:45:04,773 Speaker 2: the best surprise ending that you have ever written, which 865 00:45:04,813 --> 00:45:08,453 Speaker 2: is I mean extra given how many books you have 866 00:45:08,893 --> 00:45:10,773 Speaker 2: produced of these, I think we're one hundred and fifty 867 00:45:10,773 --> 00:45:14,893 Speaker 2: books in. So do you go about writing an ending 868 00:45:14,973 --> 00:45:17,813 Speaker 2: before you before you lay out the structure of the book, 869 00:45:17,973 --> 00:45:20,773 Speaker 2: How does that ending come about in your process? 870 00:45:21,613 --> 00:45:25,813 Speaker 9: Well, I'm a very instinctive, spontaneous writer. I don't plot 871 00:45:25,813 --> 00:45:28,893 Speaker 9: and plan very much. I mean with this book, for instance, 872 00:45:29,213 --> 00:45:32,693 Speaker 9: I knew obviously the first part of the book was 873 00:45:32,773 --> 00:45:36,733 Speaker 9: to create the place where this dog lives, and I 874 00:45:36,813 --> 00:45:39,493 Speaker 9: wanted to have some kind of connection with someone there. 875 00:45:39,573 --> 00:45:41,213 Speaker 9: So there's a girl on the farm in which the 876 00:45:41,253 --> 00:45:43,213 Speaker 9: dog is brought up of adors the dog, the dog 877 00:45:43,533 --> 00:45:46,253 Speaker 9: where adores the girl and they get split up. Doesn't 878 00:45:46,253 --> 00:45:48,493 Speaker 9: matter why we can read the book for that, but 879 00:45:48,533 --> 00:45:51,533 Speaker 9: they get split up, and the person who splits up 880 00:45:51,573 --> 00:45:54,773 Speaker 9: the relationship between this girl and this dog is also 881 00:45:54,853 --> 00:45:58,493 Speaker 9: responsible for selling the dog to a drover, and off 882 00:45:58,893 --> 00:46:01,413 Speaker 9: the dog goes therefore pretty much on his own in 883 00:46:01,453 --> 00:46:04,093 Speaker 9: the big wide world, except he's got lots and lots 884 00:46:04,133 --> 00:46:06,533 Speaker 9: of cows and sheep to look after, and you follow 885 00:46:06,613 --> 00:46:09,253 Speaker 9: him all the way to London. When I didn't know 886 00:46:09,293 --> 00:46:12,173 Speaker 9: what to do, and I like, this really is I 887 00:46:12,213 --> 00:46:14,973 Speaker 9: didn't know how to continue the book after I got 888 00:46:14,973 --> 00:46:18,133 Speaker 9: the dog to London. And I'm very often like that. 889 00:46:18,333 --> 00:46:21,693 Speaker 9: I start something and off I go on a journey. 890 00:46:21,853 --> 00:46:25,773 Speaker 9: And what I'm always hopeful is that something, something will 891 00:46:26,013 --> 00:46:28,453 Speaker 9: lead me towards an ending, which in fact the reader 892 00:46:28,533 --> 00:46:32,053 Speaker 9: isn't expecting. And I'm not going to I can't tell 893 00:46:32,133 --> 00:46:37,133 Speaker 9: the ending the silly book. But what I what I 894 00:46:37,533 --> 00:46:42,253 Speaker 9: did do was to find out. I find out that 895 00:46:42,933 --> 00:46:48,093 Speaker 9: historically all the droving ended about nineteen hundred, so I 896 00:46:48,133 --> 00:46:52,813 Speaker 9: had to set my book back from that, and I did. 897 00:46:52,973 --> 00:46:55,133 Speaker 9: When I was at school. I'm now eighteen. And when 898 00:46:55,173 --> 00:46:58,693 Speaker 9: we learned history at schools in this country all those 899 00:46:58,773 --> 00:47:02,133 Speaker 9: years ago, you really only learned one way, and that 900 00:47:02,213 --> 00:47:04,573 Speaker 9: was sort of dates. You had to learn dates, the 901 00:47:04,733 --> 00:47:07,173 Speaker 9: dates of this and the dates of that. And I 902 00:47:07,253 --> 00:47:09,293 Speaker 9: remembered all the way through to my eighties, and I 903 00:47:09,453 --> 00:47:13,013 Speaker 9: learned it at the age of seven. Two dates in 904 00:47:13,533 --> 00:47:18,133 Speaker 9: English history from the nineteenth century. One was the Battle 905 00:47:18,413 --> 00:47:23,293 Speaker 9: of Trafalgar, Nelson's great victory, that was eighteen oh five, 906 00:47:23,733 --> 00:47:28,253 Speaker 9: and the other one was the Battle of Waterloo eighteen fifteen. 907 00:47:30,133 --> 00:47:32,973 Speaker 9: And I did know because I have studied a bit 908 00:47:33,133 --> 00:47:36,973 Speaker 9: military history, and I knew that apart from the terrible 909 00:47:36,973 --> 00:47:40,173 Speaker 9: losses on all sides and the slaughter of that battle 910 00:47:40,733 --> 00:47:43,813 Speaker 9: or usually portrayed on film with beautiful uniforms and it's all, 911 00:47:44,213 --> 00:47:48,133 Speaker 9: it was the ghastly, ghastly affair, like all wars anyway, 912 00:47:48,173 --> 00:47:52,053 Speaker 9: What I did know is that when the soldiers came 913 00:47:52,093 --> 00:47:56,053 Speaker 9: back to this country, to England where I live, after 914 00:47:56,093 --> 00:48:00,613 Speaker 9: that having won this great victory and the country ringing 915 00:48:00,693 --> 00:48:04,413 Speaker 9: bells and celebrating, and when the soldiers came home there 916 00:48:04,453 --> 00:48:06,853 Speaker 9: was nothing for them. There was no work, there was 917 00:48:06,893 --> 00:48:09,533 Speaker 9: no money, and many of them starved in the streets 918 00:48:09,533 --> 00:48:14,253 Speaker 9: of London beggy. And I thought to myself, if one 919 00:48:14,293 --> 00:48:20,253 Speaker 9: of these returning soldiers from that battle should meet up 920 00:48:20,253 --> 00:48:24,213 Speaker 9: with a dog, and that returning soldier had nowhere to go, 921 00:48:25,053 --> 00:48:28,453 Speaker 9: and the dog did know where to go, that might 922 00:48:28,493 --> 00:48:32,293 Speaker 9: be an interesting journey back. So that's the kind of 923 00:48:32,293 --> 00:48:37,133 Speaker 9: thing that happened. I linked up a historical fact. I'm 924 00:48:37,213 --> 00:48:42,493 Speaker 9: very keen on historical facts in my novels. That it's 925 00:48:42,533 --> 00:48:45,573 Speaker 9: truth that interests me, revealing more truth through fiction. 926 00:48:45,813 --> 00:48:48,173 Speaker 2: And it is a truth that rold All told you 927 00:48:48,213 --> 00:48:50,173 Speaker 2: that children don't like history. 928 00:48:51,933 --> 00:48:56,813 Speaker 9: Yes he did. And I had a book called war Horse, 929 00:48:57,573 --> 00:49:01,253 Speaker 9: which was the first book I ever had that years 930 00:49:01,253 --> 00:49:04,373 Speaker 9: and years ago, and I'm talking forty to fifty years ago. 931 00:49:05,533 --> 00:49:08,773 Speaker 9: This book was shortlisted for a big prize in this 932 00:49:08,813 --> 00:49:12,133 Speaker 9: country called the Whipbread Prize, and here was the chair 933 00:49:12,253 --> 00:49:16,213 Speaker 9: of the judges on this prize. And I went up 934 00:49:16,253 --> 00:49:19,453 Speaker 9: to London, and my publishers are very enthusiastic, and they 935 00:49:19,453 --> 00:49:21,413 Speaker 9: thought I was going to win, and lots of people 936 00:49:21,493 --> 00:49:23,613 Speaker 9: that I was going to win. And I didn't win. 937 00:49:23,693 --> 00:49:28,453 Speaker 9: Someone else won, doesn't matter who. But as I was 938 00:49:28,453 --> 00:49:31,613 Speaker 9: feeling a little bit low during the ceremony, I was 939 00:49:31,853 --> 00:49:37,533 Speaker 9: sitting there sipping my wine when Roll Dahald stood up 940 00:49:37,613 --> 00:49:40,933 Speaker 9: and kind of beckoned me over to the judges table. 941 00:49:42,253 --> 00:49:45,013 Speaker 9: So I went over. You had to go where he said, 942 00:49:45,053 --> 00:49:48,173 Speaker 9: you know, he was God, so to speak. So I 943 00:49:48,213 --> 00:49:50,693 Speaker 9: walked towards him and he was very nicely shook my 944 00:49:50,693 --> 00:49:53,013 Speaker 9: hand and he said, yes, yes, good book, good book. 945 00:49:53,213 --> 00:49:56,773 Speaker 9: But you do know, don't you, that children don't like history, 946 00:49:58,333 --> 00:50:01,333 Speaker 9: And having been a teacher for eight years, I did 947 00:50:01,413 --> 00:50:04,413 Speaker 9: know this was rubbish. There's an awful lot of things 948 00:50:04,733 --> 00:50:09,653 Speaker 9: children don't like, but generally it's because they've not been 949 00:50:09,693 --> 00:50:12,373 Speaker 9: taught very well, or the story hasn't been told very well. 950 00:50:12,453 --> 00:50:16,053 Speaker 9: And you can teach history really well and pass that 951 00:50:16,173 --> 00:50:18,533 Speaker 9: on all the stories of history, which are very important 952 00:50:18,533 --> 00:50:20,773 Speaker 9: to all of us. You can do that if you 953 00:50:20,853 --> 00:50:23,293 Speaker 9: tell it well. I didn't like to argue with him 954 00:50:23,293 --> 00:50:25,813 Speaker 9: because I told you he was God, and I knew 955 00:50:25,893 --> 00:50:29,973 Speaker 9: I didn't feel like arguing. But I've always remembered it 956 00:50:29,973 --> 00:50:32,293 Speaker 9: as the reason probably I didn't get the prize is 957 00:50:32,333 --> 00:50:35,533 Speaker 9: that he and maybe some other judges thought, well, actually, 958 00:50:36,093 --> 00:50:40,413 Speaker 9: why should children be interested in the First World War anymore? 959 00:50:41,733 --> 00:50:44,493 Speaker 9: And I think actually they had a point then, and 960 00:50:44,533 --> 00:50:47,813 Speaker 9: that is that a lot of people could get almost 961 00:50:47,933 --> 00:50:50,493 Speaker 9: nostalgic about the First of all War. There were a 962 00:50:50,533 --> 00:50:52,893 Speaker 9: lot of songs, there was oh what a lovely war. 963 00:50:52,933 --> 00:50:55,493 Speaker 9: There was lots and lots of sort of around it. 964 00:50:55,933 --> 00:50:59,613 Speaker 9: There was this glow well you know, we one type thing. 965 00:50:59,613 --> 00:51:02,773 Speaker 9: Well we know, and New Zealanders know, Australians know, everyone 966 00:51:02,813 --> 00:51:04,613 Speaker 9: know that it was not like that at all. This 967 00:51:04,813 --> 00:51:07,813 Speaker 9: is people coming across the seas to fight this war 968 00:51:07,853 --> 00:51:09,813 Speaker 9: against an enemy, and most of them didn't even know 969 00:51:10,253 --> 00:51:13,893 Speaker 9: and it was dreadful. So I don't know. I sort 970 00:51:13,933 --> 00:51:17,693 Speaker 9: of feel that they were right to think that if 971 00:51:17,693 --> 00:51:19,773 Speaker 9: this was another book that was going to join that 972 00:51:19,893 --> 00:51:22,973 Speaker 9: kind of thinking. Well, it isn't. Actually, it's a book 973 00:51:22,973 --> 00:51:26,933 Speaker 9: which is about loss, and it's about finding someone you 974 00:51:27,053 --> 00:51:29,453 Speaker 9: love and longing for that one to be joined up 975 00:51:29,453 --> 00:51:32,213 Speaker 9: with someone you love, which is what happens to all families, 976 00:51:32,253 --> 00:51:35,853 Speaker 9: and indeed horses, and it's about a horse and a boy, 977 00:51:36,093 --> 00:51:38,013 Speaker 9: and the boy going afterward to look for his horse, 978 00:51:38,013 --> 00:51:40,933 Speaker 9: which has been sold away. So I think he was wrong, 979 00:51:41,693 --> 00:51:43,693 Speaker 9: but in a sense I can understand why he said it. 980 00:51:45,013 --> 00:51:46,773 Speaker 2: Finally, Michael, I know we have to let you go 981 00:51:46,813 --> 00:51:49,293 Speaker 2: in a moment, but you mentioned farms for city children, 982 00:51:49,333 --> 00:51:51,053 Speaker 2: and I know a lot of our listeners will be 983 00:51:51,093 --> 00:51:52,733 Speaker 2: really interested in it. Can you just tell us how 984 00:51:52,733 --> 00:51:53,173 Speaker 2: it works? 985 00:51:54,213 --> 00:51:57,213 Speaker 9: Sure? Yeah, Well, my wife takes the credit for it. 986 00:51:57,213 --> 00:52:00,813 Speaker 9: Claire started the charity with me about it's almost fifty 987 00:52:00,853 --> 00:52:03,333 Speaker 9: years ago now, and since then we've had one hundred 988 00:52:03,413 --> 00:52:06,653 Speaker 9: thousand kids from the cities, all over this country. And 989 00:52:06,653 --> 00:52:09,413 Speaker 9: what happens is they come with their teachers from primary 990 00:52:09,413 --> 00:52:13,413 Speaker 9: schools about thirty five forty at a time, with their 991 00:52:13,453 --> 00:52:16,613 Speaker 9: teachers and come down first of all to Devin. That's 992 00:52:16,653 --> 00:52:18,693 Speaker 9: where we started the first farm where I'm speaking to 993 00:52:18,693 --> 00:52:20,853 Speaker 9: you from in Italy in the middle of nowhere, north 994 00:52:20,853 --> 00:52:27,173 Speaker 9: seven and they come down from inner city London in 995 00:52:27,173 --> 00:52:30,253 Speaker 9: the first place, and they come down and they'd stay 996 00:52:30,253 --> 00:52:32,893 Speaker 9: for a week. And they wouldn't just look at the 997 00:52:32,933 --> 00:52:36,893 Speaker 9: countryside the how nice, and count the eggs and count 998 00:52:36,933 --> 00:52:41,253 Speaker 9: the sheep. No, no, no, they worked alongside real farmers. The 999 00:52:41,333 --> 00:52:43,573 Speaker 9: farmer on the farm would take them out every single day. 1000 00:52:43,693 --> 00:52:45,973 Speaker 9: I would gout with every single day and we will 1001 00:52:45,973 --> 00:52:49,013 Speaker 9: milk the cows, and we'd move the sheep, and we'd 1002 00:52:49,013 --> 00:52:52,973 Speaker 9: feed the pigs. We'd do everything that needed doing within 1003 00:52:53,213 --> 00:52:57,813 Speaker 9: a working farm. The idea was really that as a teacher, 1004 00:52:57,853 --> 00:52:59,853 Speaker 9: when I'd been teaching and my wife had been teaching, 1005 00:52:59,933 --> 00:53:02,653 Speaker 9: we realized that an awful lot of children in this 1006 00:53:02,733 --> 00:53:06,053 Speaker 9: country I don't know about New Zealand suffer from a 1007 00:53:06,093 --> 00:53:11,333 Speaker 9: pover of experience. They live in a tiny flat, They 1008 00:53:11,333 --> 00:53:13,613 Speaker 9: look out of the window on concrete and tarmac and 1009 00:53:13,853 --> 00:53:16,893 Speaker 9: planes flying overhead. That's the connection very often with the 1010 00:53:16,893 --> 00:53:21,333 Speaker 9: world outside. And we thought because we both had a 1011 00:53:21,373 --> 00:53:25,093 Speaker 9: wonderful opportunity and a younger being in the countryside growing 1012 00:53:25,173 --> 00:53:28,733 Speaker 9: up in it, both of us, and we thought, well, 1013 00:53:28,773 --> 00:53:31,213 Speaker 9: this is the right of every child to have a 1014 00:53:31,253 --> 00:53:34,173 Speaker 9: connection with the world about them. This is their world, 1015 00:53:34,173 --> 00:53:36,293 Speaker 9: it is their world to look after, it's the world 1016 00:53:36,333 --> 00:53:40,453 Speaker 9: that provides their food, and it's a place they've never been. 1017 00:53:41,493 --> 00:53:44,493 Speaker 9: So that was the idea to give them a sense 1018 00:53:44,573 --> 00:53:47,933 Speaker 9: of what there is out there for them so they 1019 00:53:47,933 --> 00:53:51,493 Speaker 9: will value it and understand much more about farming and 1020 00:53:51,573 --> 00:53:54,253 Speaker 9: about the countryside and nature, so that when they go 1021 00:53:54,333 --> 00:53:56,813 Speaker 9: out walking down here, they go on and green fields 1022 00:53:56,853 --> 00:53:59,173 Speaker 9: down to the river, they see a salmon jumping, they 1023 00:53:59,213 --> 00:54:01,733 Speaker 9: might see a spray that an otter is left behind. 1024 00:54:01,773 --> 00:54:04,653 Speaker 9: They see a heron lifting off the river, they see 1025 00:54:04,693 --> 00:54:08,533 Speaker 9: buzzards eagles up in the They hire in contact with nature, 1026 00:54:08,653 --> 00:54:10,613 Speaker 9: and since they are part of nature, we thought that 1027 00:54:10,693 --> 00:54:13,733 Speaker 9: was pretty important educationally. So that's what we've been doing 1028 00:54:13,733 --> 00:54:15,813 Speaker 9: all this time with one hundred thousand children, and the 1029 00:54:15,893 --> 00:54:19,493 Speaker 9: charity goes on. It's had a struggle or two because 1030 00:54:19,773 --> 00:54:22,813 Speaker 9: you know, COVID and all all sorts of things, but 1031 00:54:22,933 --> 00:54:24,773 Speaker 9: COVID has been the main stop. We had to stop 1032 00:54:24,813 --> 00:54:27,573 Speaker 9: for a good year and a half for that because 1033 00:54:27,613 --> 00:54:29,653 Speaker 9: the kids couldn't come down, but we started up again 1034 00:54:29,733 --> 00:54:31,373 Speaker 9: and on we go. And as I speak to you 1035 00:54:31,893 --> 00:54:34,413 Speaker 9: in Devon, there's a group of children, thirty five of 1036 00:54:34,453 --> 00:54:36,373 Speaker 9: them just come down yesterday from London. 1037 00:54:36,413 --> 00:54:39,973 Speaker 2: Ah.

This is the TV adaptation of the Jilly 1101 00:57:29,093 --> 00:57:31,933 Speaker 17: Cooper book Rivals, which was published in the eighties and 1102 00:57:32,053 --> 00:57:34,493 Speaker 17: has quite a reputation for being a bit of a 1103 00:57:34,533 --> 00:57:37,213 Speaker 17: steamy read. Well, Disney Plus have brought the book to 1104 00:57:37,253 --> 00:57:40,533 Speaker 17: life and given us this really big energy, big hair, 1105 00:57:40,693 --> 00:57:44,773 Speaker 17: delicious nineteen eighties drama. It comes with a fantastic cast. 1106 00:57:44,813 --> 00:57:48,133 Speaker 17: It stars David Tennant and Aidan Turner. Set in the 1107 00:57:48,173 --> 00:57:52,133 Speaker 17: mid eighties in this upper class English horse riding set 1108 00:57:52,173 --> 00:57:55,253 Speaker 17: of people, the plot is almost not important, but the 1109 00:57:55,293 --> 00:57:58,973 Speaker 17: main storyline is about two rival journalists, Rupert Campbell Black 1110 00:57:59,013 --> 00:58:02,013 Speaker 17: and Tony Baddingham even the names of Fabulous, who are 1111 00:58:02,573 --> 00:58:05,413 Speaker 17: both very powerful and trying to take each other down 1112 00:58:05,973 --> 00:58:10,253 Speaker 17: amid all this fabulous nineteen eighties excess of champagne and 1113 00:58:10,333 --> 00:58:14,253 Speaker 17: concord flying and very indulgent lifestyles. And you know from 1114 00:58:14,253 --> 00:58:16,573 Speaker 17: the opening scene you know where you are with this show. 1115 00:58:16,653 --> 00:58:20,413 Speaker 17: It's about fabulously terrible people doing fabulously terrible things, and 1116 00:58:20,453 --> 00:58:23,453 Speaker 17: it's just having such a great time. It's a romp 1117 00:58:23,453 --> 00:58:26,013 Speaker 17: of a show. It's a satire. It's got some swagger 1118 00:58:26,053 --> 00:58:29,773 Speaker 17: to it. Obviously, the book was written thirty years ago, 1119 00:58:29,933 --> 00:58:32,013 Speaker 17: so there's stuff in there that you know, is probably 1120 00:58:32,053 --> 00:58:35,613 Speaker 17: a bit problematic from today's perspective, but the show is 1121 00:58:35,613 --> 00:58:37,533 Speaker 17: sort of giving a cheeky link to some of that. 1122 00:58:37,613 --> 00:58:40,533 Speaker 17: It's it's quite self aware, as if to say, look, 1123 00:58:40,693 --> 00:58:42,533 Speaker 17: you know, we wouldn't say these things today, but it 1124 00:58:42,573 --> 00:58:44,893 Speaker 17: was the eighties. That are awful people. We're going to 1125 00:58:44,933 --> 00:58:46,973 Speaker 17: run with it a bit. So I just love this. 1126 00:58:47,093 --> 00:58:49,773 Speaker 17: It's well made, it's well acted, it's over the top, 1127 00:58:49,813 --> 00:58:51,933 Speaker 17: but it's so confident and just so much fun. 1128 00:58:52,133 --> 00:58:55,533 Speaker 2: SUPERB sounds great. That is Rivals. It's on Disney Plus 1129 00:58:55,893 --> 00:58:58,253 Speaker 2: on Neon a show I'm excited about. Tell us about 1130 00:58:58,333 --> 00:58:59,173 Speaker 2: The Diplomat. 1131 00:58:59,893 --> 00:59:02,173 Speaker 17: Yeah, so this is a BBC drama on Neon, and 1132 00:59:02,213 --> 00:59:04,773 Speaker 17: there is a show called The Diplomat on Netflix. But 1133 00:59:04,853 --> 00:59:07,213 Speaker 17: this is on Neon and quite different to the other one. 1134 00:59:07,413 --> 00:59:09,773 Speaker 17: But if you're looking for something a bit more sedate 1135 00:59:09,933 --> 00:59:13,053 Speaker 17: and quiet. This is a great choice. This stars Sophie Rundle. 1136 00:59:13,453 --> 00:59:16,573 Speaker 17: It's set in Barcelona and it's about a group of 1137 00:59:16,613 --> 00:59:20,293 Speaker 17: British diplomats who work in the British Consul in Catalonia. 1138 00:59:20,453 --> 00:59:23,653 Speaker 17: So it's their job to help any British citizens who 1139 00:59:23,693 --> 00:59:26,333 Speaker 17: get into trouble or who need some help. And the 1140 00:59:26,373 --> 00:59:29,293 Speaker 17: series opens with an unexplained death of a British man. 1141 00:59:29,533 --> 00:59:32,333 Speaker 17: The police think it's an accident, the victim's father think 1142 00:59:32,373 --> 00:59:36,093 Speaker 17: it's murder, and the staff at the console become involved. 1143 00:59:36,173 --> 00:59:39,293 Speaker 17: And so each week, each episode there's a different situation 1144 00:59:39,413 --> 00:59:41,653 Speaker 17: that they need to help with, working with the police 1145 00:59:41,653 --> 00:59:44,493 Speaker 17: and locals. But this is a bit of an unusual 1146 00:59:44,533 --> 00:59:47,333 Speaker 17: show and that it's not really a political thriller or 1147 00:59:47,693 --> 00:59:50,453 Speaker 17: a spy drama or a murder mystery of the week 1148 00:59:50,493 --> 00:59:53,493 Speaker 17: type show. It's got a bit of it's got elements 1149 00:59:53,533 --> 00:59:57,013 Speaker 17: of each of those genres in it. So it's very light, 1150 00:59:57,413 --> 01:00:00,613 Speaker 17: lots of likable characters. I think it will get tenser 1151 01:00:00,693 --> 01:00:02,813 Speaker 17: as it goes on. But it's filmed in location in 1152 01:00:02,813 --> 01:00:05,573 Speaker 17: Barcelona as well, which just gives it such a beautiful setting. 1153 01:00:05,733 --> 01:00:07,733 Speaker 2: Yeah nice, I mean, you can't really go wrong there, 1154 01:00:07,773 --> 01:00:11,533 Speaker 2: can you? And on Prime Video The Office Australia. 1155 01:00:12,653 --> 01:00:16,253 Speaker 17: This is the latest version of the global hit mockumentary 1156 01:00:16,253 --> 01:00:18,933 Speaker 17: comedy series The Office. Of course, it started in the 1157 01:00:19,053 --> 01:00:21,613 Speaker 17: UK with Ricky Gervase, and then we had the very 1158 01:00:21,613 --> 01:00:24,373 Speaker 17: popular American series with Steve Carrell, and now we've got 1159 01:00:24,373 --> 01:00:27,013 Speaker 17: the Australian version, which has been written and directed by 1160 01:00:27,373 --> 01:00:30,533 Speaker 17: New Zealander the wonderful Jackie van Beek. Set in the 1161 01:00:30,573 --> 01:00:33,453 Speaker 17: office of a packaging company, and so it feels very 1162 01:00:33,493 --> 01:00:35,453 Speaker 17: familiar in a lot of ways. It's got all those 1163 01:00:35,493 --> 01:00:37,893 Speaker 17: traits of the Office, the looks to camera and the 1164 01:00:37,933 --> 01:00:42,493 Speaker 17: awkward silences, those office politics. But the Australian version is 1165 01:00:42,533 --> 01:00:45,213 Speaker 17: a little different in that it features the first female boss, 1166 01:00:45,653 --> 01:00:48,853 Speaker 17: Hannah Howard, who's played by Felicity Ward, and Josh Tchoumpson 1167 01:00:48,893 --> 01:00:50,853 Speaker 17: and Edith Pah are in this as well to other 1168 01:00:50,853 --> 01:00:54,293 Speaker 17: New Zealanders. Now, I'm not a loyal fan of the Office, 1169 01:00:54,293 --> 01:00:56,653 Speaker 17: so my opinion might be different to people who really 1170 01:00:56,693 --> 01:00:59,893 Speaker 17: love the show and are very loyal to a particular franchise. 1171 01:01:00,093 --> 01:01:04,293 Speaker 17: But I liked this. It's not as awkward and uncomfortable 1172 01:01:04,333 --> 01:01:06,173 Speaker 17: as the British one, and I think it's just going 1173 01:01:06,213 --> 01:01:09,173 Speaker 17: to more self assured and sort of find its own 1174 01:01:09,253 --> 01:01:11,653 Speaker 17: niche as it goes on. You know, it feels familiar, 1175 01:01:11,653 --> 01:01:14,213 Speaker 17: but it also feels fresh and there's some genuine laugh 1176 01:01:14,213 --> 01:01:16,413 Speaker 17: out moments, laugh out loud moments in there as well. 1177 01:01:16,733 --> 01:01:19,893 Speaker 2: Fantastic Okay. That's the Office Australia that's on Prime Video. 1178 01:01:20,213 --> 01:01:24,013 Speaker 2: The Diplomat is the one set in Barcelona that's on 1179 01:01:24,093 --> 01:01:26,693 Speaker 2: Neon and on Disney Plus. You can see the one 1180 01:01:26,733 --> 01:01:29,373 Speaker 2: with David Tennant and Aidan Turner that is Rivals. All 1181 01:01:29,413 --> 01:01:31,813 Speaker 2: of those shows up on the News Talks. They'd be website, 1182 01:01:31,853 --> 01:01:32,293 Speaker 2: you know the. 1183 01:01:32,253 --> 01:01:37,893 Speaker 7: Deal getting your weekends started. 1184 01:01:38,093 --> 01:01:42,453 Speaker 1: It's Saturday Morning with Jack Team on newstalksb. 1185 01:01:50,173 --> 01:02:02,093 Speaker 2: Said that you can let it Somebody Energy, Eston Jam 1186 01:02:03,453 --> 01:02:08,333 Speaker 2: do than So Can. Was just twenty one twenty one 1187 01:02:08,333 --> 01:02:11,293 Speaker 2: when the song with Gotcha came out Somebody that I 1188 01:02:11,373 --> 01:02:14,613 Speaker 2: used to know. That was back in twenty eleven. The 1189 01:02:14,733 --> 01:02:18,333 Speaker 2: song was an absolute global smash. It was number one 1190 01:02:18,373 --> 01:02:21,573 Speaker 2: on the charts and years on in Australia, the UK 1191 01:02:21,853 --> 01:02:24,693 Speaker 2: and the US. It took home three Grammys, including Record 1192 01:02:24,733 --> 01:02:28,293 Speaker 2: of the Year. Ain't No Thang. Since then, Kimber's toured 1193 01:02:28,293 --> 01:02:31,933 Speaker 2: the world. She has released so much interesting music and 1194 01:02:32,173 --> 01:02:36,533 Speaker 2: performed in iconic venues including the Sydney Opera House and Anyway. 1195 01:02:36,973 --> 01:02:39,573 Speaker 2: All these years later, the Kiwi muso has just returned 1196 01:02:39,613 --> 01:02:42,733 Speaker 2: to her collaborative roots. She's released a new album. It's 1197 01:02:42,733 --> 01:02:46,293 Speaker 2: called Idols and Vices, and over the last week while 1198 01:02:46,333 --> 01:02:48,813 Speaker 2: she's been like sharing a song from the new album 1199 01:02:48,853 --> 01:02:52,293 Speaker 2: every week, and so we've got the complete collection. We've 1200 01:02:52,293 --> 01:02:54,733 Speaker 2: got the whole album now, Idols and Vices. How does 1201 01:02:54,773 --> 01:02:56,893 Speaker 2: it sound, you ask, Well, we're going to play you 1202 01:02:56,933 --> 01:02:59,493 Speaker 2: some before midday today. Our music review Atestelle will be 1203 01:02:59,573 --> 01:03:01,213 Speaker 2: in after eleven o'clock as well to give us her 1204 01:03:01,213 --> 01:03:03,213 Speaker 2: thoughts on Kimbra. The thing I like about Kimber is 1205 01:03:03,253 --> 01:03:07,533 Speaker 2: it is there's always there's always a slight twist on 1206 01:03:07,573 --> 01:03:10,693 Speaker 2: her music, like there's beautiful and poppy, but it's interesting. 1207 01:03:11,013 --> 01:03:15,253 Speaker 2: I don't need the language to describe it in any 1208 01:03:15,253 --> 01:03:17,133 Speaker 2: more depth than that, except to say that I always 1209 01:03:17,133 --> 01:03:20,853 Speaker 2: find Kimber's music really interesting. So I'm very much looking 1210 01:03:20,893 --> 01:03:23,853 Speaker 2: forward to listening to that album. Jack, your support for 1211 01:03:23,933 --> 01:03:27,053 Speaker 2: Auckland FC is just further demonstrating you were becoming more 1212 01:03:27,093 --> 01:03:29,573 Speaker 2: and more of an Aucklander versus a one eyed Cantabrian. 1213 01:03:32,773 --> 01:03:33,653 Speaker 8: No comment. 1214 01:03:35,973 --> 01:03:37,613 Speaker 2: Ninety two. If you want to send us a message, 1215 01:03:37,613 --> 01:03:38,613 Speaker 2: it's twenty four to eleven. 1216 01:03:39,613 --> 01:03:43,933 Speaker 1: Putting the tough questions to the newspeakers, the mic asking breakfast. 1217 01:03:43,693 --> 01:03:46,053 Speaker 9: Is the Greens of met again Darling Tanner will be 1218 01:03:46,133 --> 01:03:48,093 Speaker 9: Walker jumped out of Parliament, which, by the way was 1219 01:03:48,173 --> 01:03:50,933 Speaker 9: unanimous co leaders WA brokers with us. Is it possible 1220 01:03:50,973 --> 01:03:53,053 Speaker 9: you were wrong on the law given you've now used 1221 01:03:53,053 --> 01:03:53,813 Speaker 9: it and seen its. 1222 01:03:53,733 --> 01:03:56,773 Speaker 2: Benefits to say that everybody. 1223 01:03:56,373 --> 01:03:59,133 Speaker 13: Should be open to changing their mind when it concunted 1224 01:03:59,253 --> 01:04:02,333 Speaker 13: with complexity or information. That's humanity. 1225 01:04:02,413 --> 01:04:04,853 Speaker 18: That's what evolution is supposed to look like. Mike, I 1226 01:04:04,893 --> 01:04:07,373 Speaker 18: feel really proud of the fact that eighty five dollarsates, 1227 01:04:07,453 --> 01:04:09,933 Speaker 18: having had their own star and deliberative process, that it 1228 01:04:10,053 --> 01:04:13,533 Speaker 18: all came to this conclusion. It was a unanimous insteatus. 1229 01:04:13,773 --> 01:04:15,813 Speaker 14: I think really demonstrates that were as a party in 1230 01:04:15,853 --> 01:04:17,293 Speaker 14: moving towards together on this issue. 1231 01:04:17,573 --> 01:04:20,613 Speaker 9: Back Monday from six am, the Mike asking breakfast with 1232 01:04:20,693 --> 01:04:22,973 Speaker 9: the Rain driver of the LA Newstalk ZB. 1233 01:04:24,213 --> 01:04:26,293 Speaker 2: Twenty one to eleven non news Talk ZEDB. So you 1234 01:04:26,293 --> 01:04:29,573 Speaker 2: know the sprint qualifying is underway at the moment in 1235 01:04:29,613 --> 01:04:31,493 Speaker 2: the F one. So Liam Maawson has been out on 1236 01:04:31,493 --> 01:04:32,973 Speaker 2: the track. I'll let you know how it goes. There's 1237 01:04:32,973 --> 01:04:35,533 Speaker 2: only a couple of minutes left in the sprint qualifying 1238 01:04:35,533 --> 01:04:36,853 Speaker 2: at the moment, so I'll let you know how that 1239 01:04:36,893 --> 01:04:39,093 Speaker 2: all ends up. Time to catch up with our textbook. 1240 01:04:39,093 --> 01:04:41,933 Speaker 2: Paul Stenhouse, who's will with us this morning with details 1241 01:04:41,933 --> 01:04:45,493 Speaker 2: on how Amazon has decided to join various other top 1242 01:04:45,533 --> 01:04:48,413 Speaker 2: tech firms with a forura into nuclear power. 1243 01:04:48,493 --> 01:04:51,973 Speaker 14: Paul, it seems to be just what the big tech 1244 01:04:52,013 --> 01:04:54,013 Speaker 14: companies do now, Jack. If you want to be a 1245 01:04:54,013 --> 01:04:56,493 Speaker 14: big tech company, you've got to somehow be involved in 1246 01:04:56,533 --> 01:05:00,293 Speaker 14: the sector. Because thyes spending a ton of money to 1247 01:05:00,333 --> 01:05:03,173 Speaker 14: partner with a company to look at developing what they're 1248 01:05:03,173 --> 01:05:09,093 Speaker 14: calling small modular nuclear reactors, so basically not massive power plants, 1249 01:05:09,173 --> 01:05:11,253 Speaker 14: kind of like maybe you have in your head or 1250 01:05:11,253 --> 01:05:13,093 Speaker 14: what you've seen in the past. But they're trying to 1251 01:05:13,133 --> 01:05:17,133 Speaker 14: think how to do smaller nuclear reactors, which I can 1252 01:05:17,173 --> 01:05:19,173 Speaker 14: only guess they will want to try to put close 1253 01:05:19,213 --> 01:05:21,973 Speaker 14: to their data centers. And it's all because of our 1254 01:05:22,053 --> 01:05:26,813 Speaker 14: good friend AI. They just need so much computing power 1255 01:05:26,893 --> 01:05:30,933 Speaker 14: to make AI happen, and that obviously requires bundles of energy. 1256 01:05:31,453 --> 01:05:35,333 Speaker 14: And Virginia, the state in America where there are a 1257 01:05:35,413 --> 01:05:37,693 Speaker 14: ton of data centers. It's kind of like where Amazon, 1258 01:05:37,733 --> 01:05:40,053 Speaker 14: I think at one of its first big cloud data centers, 1259 01:05:40,053 --> 01:05:44,173 Speaker 14: East One, as it's known. The power demand in Virginia, 1260 01:05:44,373 --> 01:05:47,333 Speaker 14: it's growing at five percent year over year. They are 1261 01:05:47,413 --> 01:05:51,853 Speaker 14: expecting that by twenty forty they're going to need double 1262 01:05:51,933 --> 01:05:55,453 Speaker 14: the amount of energy then right now, so real there's 1263 01:05:55,533 --> 01:05:58,453 Speaker 14: quite a problem, right, and so they're not only looking 1264 01:05:58,453 --> 01:06:00,373 Speaker 14: at how to do this with this one firm, but 1265 01:06:00,373 --> 01:06:03,893 Speaker 14: they're also putting well, they've gone on a financing round, 1266 01:06:03,893 --> 01:06:07,373 Speaker 14: a half a billion dollar financing round with a private 1267 01:06:07,413 --> 01:06:10,493 Speaker 14: company who wants to open four of these same small 1268 01:06:10,573 --> 01:06:14,133 Speaker 14: nuclear reactors on the West coast. Right, they're a little 1269 01:06:14,133 --> 01:06:17,213 Speaker 14: further along, but huge amounts of dollars in there. 1270 01:06:17,213 --> 01:06:19,133 Speaker 10: And the Wall Street Journal kind of said something interesting. 1271 01:06:19,173 --> 01:06:21,773 Speaker 14: We talked about it a couple of weeks when we 1272 01:06:21,773 --> 01:06:23,853 Speaker 14: talked about the Microsoft deal. But there seems to be 1273 01:06:23,893 --> 01:06:28,013 Speaker 14: are in naissance of nuclear power because if we want 1274 01:06:28,013 --> 01:06:30,693 Speaker 14: to do the AI thing, we're going to need a 1275 01:06:30,893 --> 01:06:35,293 Speaker 14: ton of power, and nuclear obviously is an incredible source 1276 01:06:35,373 --> 01:06:38,093 Speaker 14: of clean energy when it all goes. 1277 01:06:37,933 --> 01:06:40,653 Speaker 2: Well, yes, yeah, yeah, and not forgetting that there is 1278 01:06:40,653 --> 01:06:42,613 Speaker 2: always a bit of nuclear waste as well. But yeah, 1279 01:06:42,853 --> 01:06:46,133 Speaker 2: I mean that it is amazing. Speaking of Amazon, they're 1280 01:06:46,173 --> 01:06:48,253 Speaker 2: now going to be delivering election night news. 1281 01:06:48,733 --> 01:06:51,253 Speaker 10: Yes, you can get your packages delivered by Amazon, and 1282 01:06:51,293 --> 01:06:52,973 Speaker 10: now you can turn on the TV and you can 1283 01:06:53,093 --> 01:06:56,373 Speaker 10: understand what's happening in the election in the United States. 1284 01:06:56,613 --> 01:06:59,573 Speaker 10: I was surprised about this one because most of these 1285 01:06:59,613 --> 01:07:03,613 Speaker 10: streamers have really tried to steer clear of news and 1286 01:07:03,853 --> 01:07:05,173 Speaker 10: all of the kind of. 1287 01:07:06,733 --> 01:07:09,453 Speaker 14: You know, commentary that goes alongside it. But their Prime 1288 01:07:09,533 --> 01:07:12,613 Speaker 14: Video service is going to have the former NBC broadcast 1289 01:07:12,613 --> 01:07:16,293 Speaker 14: of Brian Williams hosting. They say that the coverage will 1290 01:07:16,293 --> 01:07:20,253 Speaker 14: be informative, accessible and non partisan. I look forward to 1291 01:07:20,293 --> 01:07:23,453 Speaker 14: seeing how they do it, but they will. They say 1292 01:07:23,493 --> 01:07:26,293 Speaker 14: they're going to be referencing third party news sources across 1293 01:07:26,293 --> 01:07:29,213 Speaker 14: all the political affiliations. So I'm kind of wondering if 1294 01:07:29,213 --> 01:07:30,773 Speaker 14: the way they're going to set it up is Brian 1295 01:07:30,813 --> 01:07:33,253 Speaker 14: Williams kind of going to be like a guide or 1296 01:07:33,253 --> 01:07:35,893 Speaker 14: a sherpet to all of this information that's being presented. 1297 01:07:35,933 --> 01:07:38,293 Speaker 14: He's gonna show us a bit over here from Fox 1298 01:07:38,293 --> 01:07:40,573 Speaker 14: and a bit over here from MSNBC, and here's what 1299 01:07:40,613 --> 01:07:42,853 Speaker 14: the New York Times dial is saying, I don't know, 1300 01:07:44,413 --> 01:07:46,133 Speaker 14: but I can only guess if that's how they're trying 1301 01:07:46,133 --> 01:07:47,893 Speaker 14: to keep this as non partisan as possible. 1302 01:07:47,933 --> 01:07:52,573 Speaker 2: But interesting, Yeah, no, it is interesting. It is interesting, 1303 01:07:52,573 --> 01:07:54,213 Speaker 2: and yeah, the proof of the pudding is in the eating. 1304 01:07:54,253 --> 01:07:56,253 Speaker 2: But it feels like this is the kind of no 1305 01:07:56,253 --> 01:07:59,133 Speaker 2: non partisan media in America right now. So yeah, thank 1306 01:07:59,173 --> 01:08:01,053 Speaker 2: you very much, Paul. We will catch you soon. That's 1307 01:08:01,053 --> 01:08:04,813 Speaker 2: our texpert. Paul Stenhouse road climb passes in the garden 1308 01:08:04,813 --> 01:08:07,613 Speaker 2: before leaven o'clock for us with his tip on getting 1309 01:08:07,693 --> 01:08:10,693 Speaker 2: rid of the fluffy bums and your place as all 1310 01:08:10,733 --> 01:08:14,133 Speaker 2: of the spring planting is underway. At seventeen minutes to eleven, 1311 01:08:14,333 --> 01:08:15,373 Speaker 2: no bitter way to kick. 1312 01:08:15,213 --> 01:08:15,853 Speaker 3: Off your weekend. 1313 01:08:16,013 --> 01:08:19,653 Speaker 1: Then with Jack Saturday Mornings with Jack Tay and bepewur 1314 01:08:19,733 --> 01:08:23,253 Speaker 1: dot co dot nz for high quality supplements used Talk ZEDB. 1315 01:08:23,693 --> 01:08:26,973 Speaker 2: According to eleven on newstalk EDB, doctor Brian Becky is 1316 01:08:27,093 --> 01:08:30,453 Speaker 2: with us this morning and he is focusing on gout 1317 01:08:30,813 --> 01:08:33,853 Speaker 2: and there's some really interesting new data, Brian. A major 1318 01:08:33,893 --> 01:08:36,413 Speaker 2: international study with more than two and a half million people, 1319 01:08:36,693 --> 01:08:40,453 Speaker 2: led by the University of Otago researchers has found that 1320 01:08:40,533 --> 01:08:44,213 Speaker 2: gout is a chronic illness for which genetics are a 1321 01:08:44,293 --> 01:08:45,013 Speaker 2: major cause. 1322 01:08:45,133 --> 01:08:47,973 Speaker 19: This is a bit of a surprise, right, Well, look, 1323 01:08:48,173 --> 01:08:52,293 Speaker 19: we've alreadys suspected that was the case. You know, traditionally 1324 01:08:52,533 --> 01:08:54,693 Speaker 19: often people have thought of gout as you think of 1325 01:08:54,733 --> 01:08:58,693 Speaker 19: the English king who sort of overweighth drinking port, legs 1326 01:08:58,813 --> 01:09:00,293 Speaker 19: venison and is laid. 1327 01:09:00,173 --> 01:09:02,733 Speaker 20: Up with gout and suffers from gout. So this lifestyle 1328 01:09:02,893 --> 01:09:05,693 Speaker 20: issue has always been this factor that's run around that 1329 01:09:05,733 --> 01:09:08,493 Speaker 20: you can model fire go out by reducing or changing 1330 01:09:08,493 --> 01:09:11,813 Speaker 20: your lifestyle or what you do. What this study actually says, 1331 01:09:11,853 --> 01:09:13,373 Speaker 20: and it was a large study with about two and 1332 01:09:13,413 --> 01:09:16,213 Speaker 20: a half million people, has said, well, look, primarily what's 1333 01:09:16,293 --> 01:09:20,013 Speaker 20: going on is your genes are causing the problem. They're 1334 01:09:20,053 --> 01:09:22,373 Speaker 20: causing you to have too much uric acid in your blood. 1335 01:09:22,733 --> 01:09:27,133 Speaker 20: And actually lifestyle changes, although they are important in stopping 1336 01:09:27,173 --> 01:09:30,573 Speaker 20: a cute gout attacks, they don't lower your uric acid level, 1337 01:09:30,613 --> 01:09:32,493 Speaker 20: so they can't cure the gout. 1338 01:09:32,653 --> 01:09:34,413 Speaker 4: So that's the big, big shift. 1339 01:09:34,573 --> 01:09:37,493 Speaker 20: So moving away from saying lifestyle as or reason gout 1340 01:09:37,533 --> 01:09:39,853 Speaker 20: occurs and yeah, pretty important. 1341 01:09:40,093 --> 01:09:43,373 Speaker 2: Okay, so let's just go back to basis. Remind us 1342 01:09:43,493 --> 01:09:44,493 Speaker 2: what is gaut. 1343 01:09:45,133 --> 01:09:47,573 Speaker 20: Yeah, so gout is when we've got too much of 1344 01:09:47,573 --> 01:09:51,333 Speaker 20: the stuff called uric acid flowing around in our blood streams. 1345 01:09:51,493 --> 01:09:54,573 Speaker 20: The body produces uric acid as part of its metabolism, 1346 01:09:54,653 --> 01:09:58,333 Speaker 20: and we also invest uric acid through certain foods. Now, 1347 01:09:58,373 --> 01:10:00,893 Speaker 20: if you have too much of it, what can actually 1348 01:10:00,933 --> 01:10:05,693 Speaker 20: happen is the uric acid can deposit little salts and joints. 1349 01:10:06,453 --> 01:10:08,893 Speaker 20: Happens is the uric acid goes into a joint, and 1350 01:10:08,973 --> 01:10:12,773 Speaker 20: typically where we see it is the joint that's at 1351 01:10:12,853 --> 01:10:16,333 Speaker 20: the base of the big toe. And suddenly these crystals 1352 01:10:16,853 --> 01:10:19,413 Speaker 20: form in the joint. The body reacts to that with 1353 01:10:19,493 --> 01:10:24,173 Speaker 20: immune response, and suddenly you get this very very painful, swollen, 1354 01:10:24,413 --> 01:10:28,373 Speaker 20: red joint that's really really debilitating, and it just pops 1355 01:10:28,413 --> 01:10:30,693 Speaker 20: out of the blue. Yeah, and then we have to 1356 01:10:30,693 --> 01:10:33,733 Speaker 20: treat it. So look really really really awful when it occurs. 1357 01:10:33,733 --> 01:10:35,613 Speaker 20: And for anyone who's had gout, I know exactly what 1358 01:10:35,653 --> 01:10:39,533 Speaker 20: I'm talking about, And yeah, a very nasty, nasty condition. 1359 01:10:39,573 --> 01:10:40,173 Speaker 21: When you get. 1360 01:10:40,013 --> 01:10:42,733 Speaker 2: It, it sounds like super painful. I know a few 1361 01:10:42,733 --> 01:10:44,253 Speaker 2: people have had it and they just talk of their 1362 01:10:44,333 --> 01:10:48,493 Speaker 2: like it. It's really shocking how painful it actually is. 1363 01:10:48,533 --> 01:10:50,493 Speaker 2: Like even if you just have a tiny bit of cloth, 1364 01:10:50,653 --> 01:10:52,613 Speaker 2: you know, like on a on a joint or something, 1365 01:10:52,693 --> 01:10:54,733 Speaker 2: or like putting on a sock. If you have gout 1366 01:10:54,733 --> 01:10:59,693 Speaker 2: in your big toe is absolutely off agonizing. Yeah, look 1367 01:10:59,933 --> 01:11:00,093 Speaker 2: at it. 1368 01:11:00,213 --> 01:11:02,573 Speaker 20: And then so people come into the surgery with cute 1369 01:11:02,573 --> 01:11:04,573 Speaker 20: gut attacks and they limp up into the room and 1370 01:11:04,573 --> 01:11:06,973 Speaker 20: they can't put their foot down and they can't shoe, 1371 01:11:07,013 --> 01:11:09,173 Speaker 20: and they talk about at night they can't put sheets 1372 01:11:09,213 --> 01:11:11,453 Speaker 20: on the toe because all the joint because it's just 1373 01:11:11,493 --> 01:11:16,493 Speaker 20: so so painful. So you're very, very unpleasant and unforgettable. 1374 01:11:16,493 --> 01:11:19,373 Speaker 20: If you have a gout attack, you'll remember it for life. 1375 01:11:19,533 --> 01:11:19,853 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1376 01:11:20,013 --> 01:11:22,333 Speaker 2: Oh it's stuff. It's tough. Okay. So for those of 1377 01:11:22,413 --> 01:11:24,053 Speaker 2: us who know that there is a bit of gout 1378 01:11:24,053 --> 01:11:29,173 Speaker 2: in the family, are there lifestyle causes that can trigger it? Like, 1379 01:11:29,253 --> 01:11:30,693 Speaker 2: are there things that I'm going to need to look 1380 01:11:30,733 --> 01:11:32,493 Speaker 2: out for, because I'm going to warn you right now, Brian. 1381 01:11:32,853 --> 01:11:35,373 Speaker 2: Ours is a family that likes ice cream, It likes cheese, 1382 01:11:35,733 --> 01:11:37,893 Speaker 2: it likes seafood, it likes all of those all other 1383 01:11:37,933 --> 01:11:38,373 Speaker 2: good things. 1384 01:11:40,573 --> 01:11:44,533 Speaker 20: Look. Look, look, it's important to have a healthy lifestyle. 1385 01:11:44,613 --> 01:11:47,173 Speaker 20: So we've got to say that. But up from what 1386 01:11:47,213 --> 01:11:51,093 Speaker 20: this study is saying to us, Look, if you're predisposed 1387 01:11:51,133 --> 01:11:54,493 Speaker 20: to gout because your uric acid is too high. Regardless 1388 01:11:54,493 --> 01:11:57,533 Speaker 20: of what you do with your lifestyle, you know, you 1389 01:11:57,653 --> 01:12:00,093 Speaker 20: stop those things that actually give us uric acid. So 1390 01:12:00,093 --> 01:12:06,573 Speaker 20: that's basically red meat. Things like shellfish, alcohol, sugary drinks 1391 01:12:06,173 --> 01:12:09,893 Speaker 20: like our carbonated sugary drinks. They can give us more 1392 01:12:10,013 --> 01:12:13,093 Speaker 20: uric acid and cause the gout to occur. But the 1393 01:12:13,133 --> 01:12:14,853 Speaker 20: fact of the matter is if you get rid of 1394 01:12:14,893 --> 01:12:17,093 Speaker 20: all those things and stop all those things, if you've 1395 01:12:17,093 --> 01:12:20,373 Speaker 20: got to underline predispicient gout, it won't let it lower 1396 01:12:20,413 --> 01:12:22,173 Speaker 20: your uric acid to a level that you won't get 1397 01:12:22,213 --> 01:12:25,933 Speaker 20: the gout. So yeah, you can change, you can modify 1398 01:12:25,973 --> 01:12:29,293 Speaker 20: those life those factors which can trigger gut, but they 1399 01:12:29,373 --> 01:12:32,573 Speaker 20: won't reduce your overall uric acid and they won't reduce 1400 01:12:32,573 --> 01:12:36,173 Speaker 20: your risk over time of getting out. So that's the 1401 01:12:36,173 --> 01:12:36,733 Speaker 20: big difference. 1402 01:12:36,773 --> 01:12:38,653 Speaker 2: Why does it affect more men than women? 1403 01:12:39,773 --> 01:12:42,373 Speaker 20: Yeah, look that's a good question. So really what the 1404 01:12:42,413 --> 01:12:46,413 Speaker 20: study is pointing to it's biological factors. So again it's 1405 01:12:46,453 --> 01:12:49,453 Speaker 20: the genetics men versus women that that tend to produce 1406 01:12:49,453 --> 01:12:52,813 Speaker 20: a higher uric acid and also in some cases kidney 1407 01:12:52,813 --> 01:12:55,893 Speaker 20: disease itself. Because uric acid has got rid of through 1408 01:12:55,933 --> 01:12:59,813 Speaker 20: the kidneys can actually produce this kidney this condition. The 1409 01:12:59,853 --> 01:13:02,853 Speaker 20: other important, really important thing to note is that Maori 1410 01:13:03,653 --> 01:13:07,453 Speaker 20: and Pacifica peoples have four to six times the rate 1411 01:13:08,013 --> 01:13:13,173 Speaker 20: of gouts. So it is particularly prevalent across New Zealand 1412 01:13:14,373 --> 01:13:18,893 Speaker 20: and because again driven by this genetic sort of predisposition 1413 01:13:18,973 --> 01:13:20,293 Speaker 20: to gout that we see. 1414 01:13:20,573 --> 01:13:22,053 Speaker 2: So what do you do about it? 1415 01:13:23,533 --> 01:13:23,733 Speaker 4: Yes? 1416 01:13:23,853 --> 01:13:26,053 Speaker 20: So look, I mean, look, there's no doubt that if 1417 01:13:26,133 --> 01:13:29,133 Speaker 20: you predispose the gout and you have a big feed 1418 01:13:29,133 --> 01:13:31,853 Speaker 20: of oisters or something, often that's what triggers agout because 1419 01:13:31,853 --> 01:13:34,933 Speaker 20: you put extra uric acid into an underlying high level 1420 01:13:34,973 --> 01:13:37,853 Speaker 20: and it will precipitate the gout. So look, just avoiding 1421 01:13:37,893 --> 01:13:41,333 Speaker 20: certain foods will lessen the frequency of gout attacks, but 1422 01:13:41,413 --> 01:13:43,293 Speaker 20: it won't get rid of the gout. So look, for 1423 01:13:43,413 --> 01:13:47,173 Speaker 20: most people, you need to take medication to lower your 1424 01:13:47,373 --> 01:13:51,013 Speaker 20: uric acid level. That's a medication that's commonly called alipurinol. 1425 01:13:51,573 --> 01:13:54,013 Speaker 20: You need to take it once a day essentially once 1426 01:13:54,053 --> 01:13:56,013 Speaker 20: you're on it, and you need to take it for life. 1427 01:13:56,053 --> 01:14:00,253 Speaker 20: And what alipuranol does very effectively is lower the underlying 1428 01:14:00,333 --> 01:14:03,853 Speaker 20: level of the uric acid and reduces your chances of 1429 01:14:03,893 --> 01:14:07,053 Speaker 20: getting the gout prevents the gout, so look at most cases. 1430 01:14:07,053 --> 01:14:10,413 Speaker 20: To be honest, Jack, it comes down to medication. 1431 01:14:10,773 --> 01:14:13,213 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, hey, thanks for your tome, Brian. We really 1432 01:14:13,253 --> 01:14:15,853 Speaker 2: appreciate it. As ever, we'll put all of Brian's tips 1433 01:14:15,853 --> 01:14:17,893 Speaker 2: and information there on the news talks. He'd be website 1434 01:14:17,973 --> 01:14:20,693 Speaker 2: just to update you on the f one. So they've 1435 01:14:20,733 --> 01:14:24,733 Speaker 2: just had qualifying for the first sprint race. Good news. 1436 01:14:25,013 --> 01:14:27,853 Speaker 2: Liam Lawson has qualified. So there are twenty races, they 1437 01:14:27,893 --> 01:14:31,693 Speaker 2: only take the top fifteen. Liam Lawson has qualified thirteenth. 1438 01:14:31,973 --> 01:14:35,573 Speaker 2: Here's the interesting thing though, he beat his teammate Yuki Sonoda. 1439 01:14:35,733 --> 01:14:38,573 Speaker 2: Not only that, he beat the Australian F one driver 1440 01:14:38,693 --> 01:14:41,413 Speaker 2: Oscar Piastre who came in sixteenth and was knocked out 1441 01:14:41,453 --> 01:14:44,573 Speaker 2: as well. So a really solid first outing in that 1442 01:14:44,653 --> 01:14:47,333 Speaker 2: first qualifying.

And also I just want to say 1461 01:15:31,693 --> 01:15:34,293 Speaker 13: we found them now in christ Church to little rotters. 1462 01:15:34,733 --> 01:15:37,693 Speaker 13: They're about yeah, they're about one hundred meters away from. 1463 01:15:37,573 --> 01:15:41,253 Speaker 5: My house, bugger, so yeah, yeah, there you go. 1464 01:15:41,613 --> 01:15:44,413 Speaker 13: Anyway, these are those lazy when moths people call them. 1465 01:15:44,453 --> 01:15:48,293 Speaker 13: They're actually suck sucking bugs actually, and the passion rine 1466 01:15:48,293 --> 01:15:51,853 Speaker 13: offers and they come out let's say October November about 1467 01:15:51,853 --> 01:15:52,813 Speaker 13: this time that they. 1468 01:15:52,733 --> 01:15:53,533 Speaker 5: Start to hatch. 1469 01:15:54,133 --> 01:15:55,973 Speaker 13: And at the moment you might not see anything, but 1470 01:15:56,013 --> 01:15:59,093 Speaker 13: if you keep looking on the new plants that they 1471 01:15:59,253 --> 01:16:02,293 Speaker 13: like to sit on, you know their favorite their favorite 1472 01:16:02,293 --> 01:16:07,213 Speaker 13: hosts have a look, because once they're really young, this 1473 01:16:07,293 --> 01:16:09,333 Speaker 13: is really good. You can actually spray them with a 1474 01:16:09,493 --> 01:16:13,573 Speaker 13: really cool insecticide, just simply from a and if you 1475 01:16:13,693 --> 01:16:17,333 Speaker 13: like a fly spray right. And the reason is they're 1476 01:16:17,373 --> 01:16:20,573 Speaker 13: so small they can't jump away, and if they do 1477 01:16:20,733 --> 01:16:23,893 Speaker 13: jump away, they jump through the clothes that you made 1478 01:16:24,053 --> 01:16:25,093 Speaker 13: in front of their house. 1479 01:16:25,453 --> 01:16:29,333 Speaker 2: Ah yeah, okay, so if I've made. 1480 01:16:29,213 --> 01:16:32,613 Speaker 13: That clothes, yeah, well this is the point. If you 1481 01:16:32,733 --> 01:16:34,613 Speaker 13: if you're away that that can be a bit tricky. 1482 01:16:34,653 --> 01:16:36,973 Speaker 13: But if you're you might find if it's a bit later, 1483 01:16:37,173 --> 01:16:40,053 Speaker 13: you can still do that because before they become too big, 1484 01:16:40,333 --> 01:16:43,213 Speaker 13: you can actually hammer them with that particular aerosol can. 1485 01:16:43,453 --> 01:16:46,693 Speaker 13: It's very simple. So that is the number one thing 1486 01:16:46,773 --> 01:16:48,333 Speaker 13: for now, and I think a lot of people in 1487 01:16:48,373 --> 01:16:50,573 Speaker 13: the Northounds they know also in the Southounds will need 1488 01:16:50,613 --> 01:16:52,933 Speaker 13: to know all this. There's of course another thing later 1489 01:16:53,013 --> 01:16:54,773 Speaker 13: on in the year that you can actually get the 1490 01:16:54,853 --> 01:16:57,093 Speaker 13: eggs out, but I'll talk about that when it happens 1491 01:16:57,413 --> 01:17:00,333 Speaker 13: in autumn time. That is a different gig again. But 1492 01:17:00,573 --> 01:17:03,253 Speaker 13: don't forget just a simple aerosol can that you use 1493 01:17:03,293 --> 01:17:05,533 Speaker 13: for flyesprey will do it and make the cloud do 1494 01:17:05,653 --> 01:17:08,733 Speaker 13: it on a nice wind still morning with the cloud 1495 01:17:08,813 --> 01:17:12,733 Speaker 13: stays in front of their little little favorite host plant, 1496 01:17:12,813 --> 01:17:13,413 Speaker 13: you know what I mean. 1497 01:17:13,533 --> 01:17:16,613 Speaker 2: Yeah, and like it won't it won't poison my passion 1498 01:17:16,613 --> 01:17:18,173 Speaker 2: for it. I know that seems silly, but they won't. 1499 01:17:18,213 --> 01:17:19,653 Speaker 2: It's not gonna it's not going to come. 1500 01:17:19,653 --> 01:17:22,973 Speaker 13: Back to get me, I'll tell you, because that as 1501 01:17:23,133 --> 01:17:26,013 Speaker 13: that spray will be gone in probably twenty four hours 1502 01:17:26,013 --> 01:17:30,213 Speaker 13: in terms of residual action. But the stuff that went 1503 01:17:30,253 --> 01:17:33,013 Speaker 13: on their bodies will stay on their bodies. 1504 01:17:33,133 --> 01:17:33,813 Speaker 20: And that's just a. 1505 01:17:33,773 --> 01:17:34,733 Speaker 2: Good thing, very good. 1506 01:17:34,773 --> 01:17:36,853 Speaker 13: So no, there's no no hassles with that at all. 1507 01:17:36,933 --> 01:17:39,493 Speaker 2: Okay, very good, Thank you, sir.

He'd be website. The Sprint 1510 01:17:44,813 --> 01:17:48,813 Speaker 2: qualifying two has just begun in the US Grand Prix. 1511 01:17:48,893 --> 01:17:51,333 Speaker 2: I'll let you know how Liam Lawson goes and his 1512 01:17:51,613 --> 01:17:55,133 Speaker 2: second qualifying session very shortly. It is almost eleven o'clock though. 1513 01:17:55,413 --> 01:17:57,933 Speaker 2: News is next Saturday morning. I'm Jack taym and this 1514 01:17:58,093 --> 01:17:59,093 Speaker 2: is news Dogs. He'd be. 1515 01:18:04,653 --> 01:18:08,373 Speaker 1: Saturday Mornings with Jack Tay keeping the conversation going through 1516 01:18:08,413 --> 01:18:11,613 Speaker 1: the weekend with Bpure dot co dot inst for high 1517 01:18:11,733 --> 01:18:22,053 Speaker 1: quality supplements used talk sb. 1518 01:18:36,973 --> 01:18:40,173 Speaker 2: Ah tell you what this if one ark? Oh, she's 1519 01:18:40,213 --> 01:18:43,813 Speaker 2: a rollercoaster. So the way it works for the sprint race, 1520 01:18:43,893 --> 01:18:45,773 Speaker 2: not to be confused with the main Grand Prix this 1521 01:18:45,853 --> 01:18:48,133 Speaker 2: weekend in the US, is for the sprint race that 1522 01:18:48,173 --> 01:18:49,973 Speaker 2: they have first, which is only about one hundred k's 1523 01:18:49,973 --> 01:18:51,493 Speaker 2: which of course they do in f one cars in 1524 01:18:51,533 --> 01:18:55,173 Speaker 2: about five minutes. They only have ten cars racing, so 1525 01:18:55,173 --> 01:18:56,853 Speaker 2: for the Grand Prix they have twenty cars. For the 1526 01:18:56,893 --> 01:18:59,173 Speaker 2: sprint race they have ten cars. And to qualify for 1527 01:18:59,213 --> 01:19:02,693 Speaker 2: the sprint race, they have two very quick sprint qualifiers. 1528 01:19:03,093 --> 01:19:05,853 Speaker 2: So in the first sprint qualifier they eliminate five cars. 1529 01:19:05,853 --> 01:19:08,413 Speaker 2: In the second they eliminate another five cars. Therefore, from 1530 01:19:08,413 --> 01:19:10,853 Speaker 2: twenty drivers they end up with ten. In the first 1531 01:19:10,893 --> 01:19:15,013 Speaker 2: sprint qualifier, Liam Lawson did really well. He pipped Yuki 1532 01:19:15,053 --> 01:19:18,733 Speaker 2: Sonoda and his teammate and so he made it into 1533 01:19:18,733 --> 01:19:23,333 Speaker 2: the final fifteen. In the second sprint qualifier, though Yuki 1534 01:19:23,373 --> 01:19:27,333 Speaker 2: Sonoda snuck into the top ten, Liam Lawson unfortunately didn't. 1535 01:19:27,373 --> 01:19:29,813 Speaker 2: He finished either twelfth or thirteenth, so he won't qualify 1536 01:19:30,093 --> 01:19:31,773 Speaker 2: for the sprint race. Still, it was a pretty it 1537 01:19:31,773 --> 01:19:35,293 Speaker 2: has to be said, pretty respectable outing. He was only 1538 01:19:35,773 --> 01:19:38,533 Speaker 2: like a fraction of a second behind Sergio Perez, who 1539 01:19:38,573 --> 01:19:40,413 Speaker 2: was racing in the Red Bull car, which is of 1540 01:19:40,413 --> 01:19:44,853 Speaker 2: course the brother or sister team to the one that 1541 01:19:44,893 --> 01:19:47,253 Speaker 2: Liam Lawson is racing in. So to be that close 1542 01:19:47,293 --> 01:19:50,533 Speaker 2: to one of the top team drivers is apparently impressive. 1543 01:19:51,133 --> 01:19:54,413 Speaker 2: But yeah, a little bit disappointing that he just just 1544 01:19:54,413 --> 01:19:56,373 Speaker 2: missed out on that race, but still a pretty solid 1545 01:19:56,373 --> 01:19:59,133 Speaker 2: first outing.

It's amazing how those TV 1577 01:21:25,333 --> 01:21:28,173 Speaker 2: shows like Drive to Survive, Tour de France unchained. It's 1578 01:21:28,173 --> 01:21:31,933 Speaker 2: amazing how they've kind of rejuvenated interest in those sports. Yeah. 1579 01:21:32,253 --> 01:21:33,333 Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely. 1580 01:21:33,853 --> 01:21:37,293 Speaker 2: Anyway, we digress. This is this is You've got some 1581 01:21:37,773 --> 01:21:40,813 Speaker 2: really interesting new research for us this morning that looks 1582 01:21:41,013 --> 01:21:44,973 Speaker 2: at the connections or relationship between stress and the gut, 1583 01:21:45,133 --> 01:21:49,053 Speaker 2: and it can probably best be summarized as saying, worrying 1584 01:21:49,453 --> 01:21:52,133 Speaker 2: does indeed make you sick, so you can worry yourself set. 1585 01:21:52,333 --> 01:21:52,733 Speaker 2: Is that fair? 1586 01:21:54,373 --> 01:21:56,933 Speaker 5: I think it is. And I was intrigued to read 1587 01:21:56,973 --> 01:22:00,293 Speaker 5: this because when I was a young teen I remember, 1588 01:22:00,413 --> 01:22:05,053 Speaker 5: I had all these stomach unexplained stomach issues, and I 1589 01:22:05,093 --> 01:22:06,973 Speaker 5: had a sore stomach and I wake up in the 1590 01:22:07,013 --> 01:22:10,253 Speaker 5: morning with a sore gut, and nobody could really figure 1591 01:22:10,293 --> 01:22:12,453 Speaker 5: it out. And I was going to the doctor and 1592 01:22:12,573 --> 01:22:15,893 Speaker 5: doing all these tests and this sort of thing. And 1593 01:22:16,613 --> 01:22:18,533 Speaker 5: I mean, at the time, I knew that I was 1594 01:22:18,573 --> 01:22:21,093 Speaker 5: a bit anxious and a bit worried about I don't 1595 01:22:21,093 --> 01:22:22,413 Speaker 5: even know what it was at the time, you know, 1596 01:22:22,453 --> 01:22:25,093 Speaker 5: typical teenage things, probably girlfriends and friends and that kind 1597 01:22:25,133 --> 01:22:29,733 Speaker 5: of thing. But but I think now, looking back in hindsight, 1598 01:22:30,053 --> 01:22:34,173 Speaker 5: that anxiety, that stress that I was experiencing was causing 1599 01:22:34,293 --> 01:22:40,413 Speaker 5: my stomach pain. Yeah, and this this research is sort 1600 01:22:40,413 --> 01:22:44,533 Speaker 5: of highlighting how that link really works. So it's fascinating stuff. 1601 01:22:44,613 --> 01:22:48,893 Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, that's really that's very intriguing. So so basically, 1602 01:22:50,093 --> 01:22:52,253 Speaker 2: you know, I think I think we're starting to get 1603 01:22:52,253 --> 01:22:56,053 Speaker 2: a better understanding right of how gut health affects our 1604 01:22:56,693 --> 01:23:00,853 Speaker 2: body health. But these researchers have found that by taking 1605 01:23:00,853 --> 01:23:03,733 Speaker 2: out a couple of glands and mice that that line 1606 01:23:03,773 --> 01:23:06,973 Speaker 2: the walls of the small and testine, it kind of 1607 01:23:07,013 --> 01:23:10,453 Speaker 2: has triggered inflammation and the chances that they would then 1608 01:23:10,493 --> 01:23:12,293 Speaker 2: get sick or get a kind of infection and the 1609 01:23:12,333 --> 01:23:16,453 Speaker 2: same thing happens to people as well. All can happen 1610 01:23:16,453 --> 01:23:17,133 Speaker 2: to people as well. 1611 01:23:18,453 --> 01:23:20,693 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's right, So it's that link between They found 1612 01:23:20,733 --> 01:23:23,053 Speaker 5: a gland. If you don't have the gland, you get it, 1613 01:23:23,213 --> 01:23:26,213 Speaker 5: you get inflammation in your stomach. And they found that 1614 01:23:26,213 --> 01:23:30,613 Speaker 5: that's because there's a reduction in good gut bacteria that 1615 01:23:30,653 --> 01:23:34,093 Speaker 5: protects your stomach. So that makes sense in the gut, right, 1616 01:23:34,133 --> 01:23:37,773 Speaker 5: But the connection I think was missing with the brain. 1617 01:23:37,933 --> 01:23:42,013 Speaker 5: But what they've found is that that gland in the 1618 01:23:42,133 --> 01:23:45,013 Speaker 5: gut is connected. We've got this big vegas nerve that 1619 01:23:45,093 --> 01:23:47,613 Speaker 5: runs right down the middle of our body that's responsible 1620 01:23:47,653 --> 01:23:50,093 Speaker 5: for whole lots of things. But it connects right and 1621 01:23:50,773 --> 01:23:53,133 Speaker 5: from your gut up into your brain and up to 1622 01:23:53,293 --> 01:23:55,853 Speaker 5: part of your brain called the amygdala, and that's where 1623 01:23:55,893 --> 01:23:59,933 Speaker 5: your fight or flight response sits. And people will know 1624 01:24:00,133 --> 01:24:01,853 Speaker 5: you know, most people have an idea of what that is. 1625 01:24:02,133 --> 01:24:06,173 Speaker 5: That's the thing that gets activated when we are stressed. 1626 01:24:06,373 --> 01:24:10,053 Speaker 5: So it turns on our stress response and what the 1627 01:24:10,093 --> 01:24:13,453 Speaker 5: research has found, they sort of they connected the two. 1628 01:24:13,493 --> 01:24:16,813 Speaker 5: They found that if there was chronic and this wasn't mice, 1629 01:24:16,933 --> 01:24:19,413 Speaker 5: but that they're assuming it works the same in humans, 1630 01:24:19,413 --> 01:24:23,253 Speaker 5: that if mice were chronically stressed, there amigdala was all 1631 01:24:23,253 --> 01:24:27,333 Speaker 5: fired up. It transmitted down the vagus nerve into their gut, 1632 01:24:27,533 --> 01:24:31,413 Speaker 5: into that particular gland, and they saw the shutdown of 1633 01:24:31,453 --> 01:24:35,453 Speaker 5: that gland and the reduction in the the good gut 1634 01:24:35,493 --> 01:24:39,733 Speaker 5: bacteria and then more stomach pain and information in the gut. 1635 01:24:40,813 --> 01:24:44,693 Speaker 5: And so it's really I think shows how connected our 1636 01:24:44,773 --> 01:24:49,253 Speaker 5: whole body system is. That the stomach and the gut 1637 01:24:49,333 --> 01:24:51,533 Speaker 5: talks to the brain, and the brain talks to the 1638 01:24:51,613 --> 01:24:55,413 Speaker 5: gut and it's all sort of tied up together. So 1639 01:24:55,773 --> 01:24:58,133 Speaker 5: whilst so we sometimes think of stress and worry as 1640 01:24:58,213 --> 01:25:01,733 Speaker 5: something that's in our heads, it's also very much in 1641 01:25:01,813 --> 01:25:02,733 Speaker 5: our stomachs. 1642 01:25:02,813 --> 01:25:05,453 Speaker 2: Yeah well yeah, okay, yeah, that makes sense. So what 1643 01:25:05,453 --> 01:25:10,213 Speaker 2: can we do about it? Don't don't get stress. 1644 01:25:12,133 --> 01:25:15,573 Speaker 5: If only look I think you know, it obviously highlights 1645 01:25:15,653 --> 01:25:20,933 Speaker 5: that managing your stress levels, and whether that's a home 1646 01:25:21,093 --> 01:25:25,013 Speaker 5: or at work. You know, we know that that's good anyway, 1647 01:25:25,053 --> 01:25:26,933 Speaker 5: but it's good not only if your mental health, but 1648 01:25:27,013 --> 01:25:30,373 Speaker 5: your physical health. I think also too. And I'm not 1649 01:25:30,493 --> 01:25:34,933 Speaker 5: obviously a gut specialist, but I would imagine that it 1650 01:25:34,973 --> 01:25:38,013 Speaker 5: points to us making sure that we take care of 1651 01:25:38,053 --> 01:25:41,133 Speaker 5: our diet and our guts as well and keeping that 1652 01:25:41,173 --> 01:25:44,053 Speaker 5: good gut back terrier. And you probably need you probably 1653 01:25:44,053 --> 01:25:46,813 Speaker 5: need a nutritionists really to be talking about to be 1654 01:25:46,853 --> 01:25:49,413 Speaker 5: talking about that, but I think you know, it really 1655 01:25:49,493 --> 01:25:53,653 Speaker 5: highlights that how one looking after one part of our 1656 01:25:53,773 --> 01:25:57,573 Speaker 5: health impacts the whole of our body. So look after 1657 01:25:57,613 --> 01:25:59,613 Speaker 5: your brain, and that will look after your stomach. Look 1658 01:25:59,653 --> 01:26:01,733 Speaker 5: after your stomach, and that will look after your brain. 1659 01:26:03,053 --> 01:26:05,933 Speaker 5: And which is I mean it makes sort of common 1660 01:26:05,973 --> 01:26:07,693 Speaker 5: sense away and I think we all know it, but 1661 01:26:07,733 --> 01:26:10,413 Speaker 5: it's good to have that sort of scientific understanding of 1662 01:26:10,413 --> 01:26:12,933 Speaker 5: actually what's going on when we're doing that. 1663 01:26:13,013 --> 01:26:17,573 Speaker 2: Yeah, right, I mean that. Yeah, it's it's very it's 1664 01:26:17,613 --> 01:26:21,613 Speaker 2: funny because it feels intuitive in a sense, but actually 1665 01:26:21,693 --> 01:26:23,493 Speaker 2: being able to have the science to back it up 1666 01:26:23,533 --> 01:26:26,733 Speaker 2: as a different kind of story. And it's funny that 1667 01:26:26,773 --> 01:26:29,333 Speaker 2: it feels intuitive. You know that it makes that kind 1668 01:26:29,333 --> 01:26:31,573 Speaker 2: of makes sense to us, even if we haven't necessarily 1669 01:26:31,573 --> 01:26:33,733 Speaker 2: been able to pinpoint it quite like the study has. 1670 01:26:34,853 --> 01:26:38,533 Speaker 5: I know, that's a I find that vaguely disappointing at 1671 01:26:38,573 --> 01:26:43,293 Speaker 5: times about yeah sci scientific discoveries. Everybody goes, oh, yeah, 1672 01:26:43,333 --> 01:26:45,053 Speaker 5: that makes sense. There was Yeah I knew that, and 1673 01:26:45,093 --> 01:26:48,373 Speaker 5: it's like, yeah, me too, but this isn't amazing. But 1674 01:26:48,493 --> 01:26:50,333 Speaker 5: it's like, oh, yeah, but we just we kind of 1675 01:26:50,413 --> 01:26:52,773 Speaker 5: knew that, didn't we. It's like, well, we we sort 1676 01:26:52,773 --> 01:26:55,573 Speaker 5: of did, but but look, here's the actual evidence to 1677 01:26:55,613 --> 01:26:57,693 Speaker 5: show what the connection is. I think once you understand 1678 01:26:57,693 --> 01:26:59,973 Speaker 5: the connections, you know, you can you can isolate much 1679 01:27:00,013 --> 01:27:02,773 Speaker 5: more how you can actually help, Like what can you 1680 01:27:02,813 --> 01:27:07,373 Speaker 5: do about the bacteria for example? And maybe, and this 1681 01:27:07,573 --> 01:27:10,453 Speaker 5: is me speculating, but maybe you know, if you address 1682 01:27:10,733 --> 01:27:13,173 Speaker 5: gut back terry, you're going to reduce the symptoms of 1683 01:27:13,213 --> 01:27:17,733 Speaker 5: anxiety and stress, and then that will flow up back 1684 01:27:17,773 --> 01:27:19,933 Speaker 5: to the brain as well, so you know, we don't 1685 01:27:19,933 --> 01:27:23,453 Speaker 5: have to just focus on mental ways of coping with stress. 1686 01:27:23,453 --> 01:27:24,893 Speaker 5: It could be physical as well. 1687 01:27:24,813 --> 01:27:27,013 Speaker 2: Right right, that makes sense. Hey, thank you Google. That's 1688 01:27:27,133 --> 01:27:29,613 Speaker 2: very very interesting, and thank you for bringing that study 1689 01:27:29,613 --> 01:27:33,333 Speaker 2: to our attention, Google Sutherland, our clinical psychologist. There he was, 1690 01:27:33,413 --> 01:27:36,133 Speaker 2: of course with the Umbrella well being now perfore Midday 1691 01:27:36,173 --> 01:27:39,173 Speaker 2: as well as that new album from Kimber. We've got 1692 01:27:39,173 --> 01:27:41,933 Speaker 2: our book picks for this weekend. Plus Jason Pine is 1693 01:27:42,053 --> 01:27:44,453 Speaker 2: counting down the ours to the very first game from 1694 01:27:44,533 --> 01:27:47,013 Speaker 2: Auckland FC. They kick off at five o'clock this evening 1695 01:27:47,053 --> 01:27:50,493 Speaker 2: against the Brisbane Raw. They are expecting to sell out 1696 01:27:50,533 --> 01:27:54,053 Speaker 2: stadium at go Media Stadium aka Mount Smart So more 1697 01:27:54,093 --> 01:27:57,293 Speaker 2: than twenty thousand people have bought tickets for that opening match, 1698 01:27:57,333 --> 01:28:00,613 Speaker 2: which is remarkable that all they're now is for the 1699 01:28:00,613 --> 01:28:02,973 Speaker 2: team to put together a really solid performance, maybe get 1700 01:28:02,973 --> 01:28:05,253 Speaker 2: a win this afternoon, that would be ideal. But we'll 1701 01:28:05,253 --> 01:28:07,053 Speaker 2: get Jason Pine's thoughts on that. A big day for 1702 01:28:07,133 --> 01:28:09,813 Speaker 2: him right now it is sixteen past eleven, non news Storks. 1703 01:28:09,853 --> 01:28:15,333 Speaker 1: He'd be travel with Wendy wo Tours, unique fully inclusive tours. 1704 01:28:15,013 --> 01:28:15,933 Speaker 3: Around the world. 1705 01:28:16,293 --> 01:28:19,213 Speaker 2: Mike Yardley is our travel correspondent and is here today 1706 01:28:19,653 --> 01:28:21,533 Speaker 2: to Mike morning Jack. 1707 01:28:21,613 --> 01:28:24,533 Speaker 6: Have a great time in the States. I reckon Karmela's 1708 01:28:24,613 --> 01:28:26,253 Speaker 6: campaign is in a world of trouble. 1709 01:28:27,293 --> 01:28:30,333 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know about a world of trouble. I 1710 01:28:30,333 --> 01:28:32,213 Speaker 2: think these things sort of ebb and flow a little bit, 1711 01:28:32,253 --> 01:28:34,733 Speaker 2: but I definitely think they're in trouble, you know, relative 1712 01:28:34,733 --> 01:28:36,053 Speaker 2: to where they were a couple of weeks ago. This 1713 01:28:36,173 --> 01:28:38,293 Speaker 2: is certainly a lag in the campaign that we wanted 1714 01:28:38,293 --> 01:28:40,253 Speaker 2: to turn things around. If the election were held today, 1715 01:28:41,133 --> 01:28:44,853 Speaker 2: I reckon Trum, I reckon Trump would have it. I 1716 01:28:44,893 --> 01:28:46,813 Speaker 2: reckon Trump would have it. But I also just think, 1717 01:28:48,293 --> 01:28:50,973 Speaker 2: like flip a coin, you know, flip a coin out 1718 01:28:51,013 --> 01:28:53,773 Speaker 2: at the moment, what is it that makes you think 1719 01:28:53,933 --> 01:28:55,933 Speaker 2: that her campaigns in trouble. 1720 01:28:56,573 --> 01:28:58,893 Speaker 6: I've just got back from there, and I just think 1721 01:28:59,413 --> 01:29:01,773 Speaker 6: a couple of things. First of all, the trend is 1722 01:29:01,813 --> 01:29:03,893 Speaker 6: not who friend in the polls, you know when you 1723 01:29:03,933 --> 01:29:06,093 Speaker 6: compare it to say twenty twenty or twenty sixteen and 1724 01:29:06,533 --> 01:29:08,773 Speaker 6: better ground states. But the other thing, Jack, and that 1725 01:29:08,853 --> 01:29:10,773 Speaker 6: something you picked up on with me a few weeks ago, 1726 01:29:10,893 --> 01:29:14,853 Speaker 6: was she just seems unable to give her half decent 1727 01:29:15,013 --> 01:29:18,253 Speaker 6: answer to the tough questions. She just continues to dodge 1728 01:29:18,293 --> 01:29:21,613 Speaker 6: those tough questions, and I just think that raises huge 1729 01:29:21,773 --> 01:29:24,573 Speaker 6: question marks about, you know, the ability of someone like 1730 01:29:24,613 --> 01:29:25,453 Speaker 6: that to be president. 1731 01:29:25,653 --> 01:29:25,853 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1732 01:29:25,973 --> 01:29:28,693 Speaker 2: I tend to agree with that. I think she's a 1733 01:29:28,773 --> 01:29:31,493 Speaker 2: really poor interviewee for someone who's made it to that 1734 01:29:31,533 --> 01:29:33,853 Speaker 2: position like a one on one interviewee. Not I'm not 1735 01:29:33,973 --> 01:29:36,973 Speaker 2: I'm not saying that Donald Trump is a good interviewee. 1736 01:29:38,093 --> 01:29:42,093 Speaker 2: The necessarily answers many questions. But yeah, I think she's 1737 01:29:42,093 --> 01:29:44,093 Speaker 2: surprisingly weak and it plays into the whole thing about 1738 01:29:44,173 --> 01:29:45,653 Speaker 2: you know, like what does she actually stand for? 1739 01:29:45,813 --> 01:29:45,973 Speaker 4: Right? 1740 01:29:46,533 --> 01:29:49,533 Speaker 2: It is hard to tell watching. Yeah, it's gonna be 1741 01:29:49,573 --> 01:29:52,013 Speaker 2: very interesting. So I'm looking forward to podcasting from there 1742 01:29:52,053 --> 01:29:53,373 Speaker 2: over the next couple of weeks and trying to get 1743 01:29:53,413 --> 01:29:56,693 Speaker 2: give a sense of things, sense of things on the ground. Yeah, 1744 01:29:56,693 --> 01:29:59,653 Speaker 2: thank you. So from the Mighty us of A. We 1745 01:29:59,733 --> 01:30:02,133 Speaker 2: are turning our attention to the Indian Ocean and the 1746 01:30:02,253 --> 01:30:06,333 Speaker 2: hill country in Sri Lanka this morning. And the gateway said, 1747 01:30:06,493 --> 01:30:08,133 Speaker 2: in the highlands of Sri Lanka is Candy. 1748 01:30:08,213 --> 01:30:08,413 Speaker 22: Right. 1749 01:30:09,533 --> 01:30:11,733 Speaker 6: Indeed, I thought we'd do one last burst with Sri 1750 01:30:11,853 --> 01:30:14,893 Speaker 6: Lanka and I headed for the Hillsjack. The thing about 1751 01:30:14,973 --> 01:30:18,813 Speaker 6: Candy is it's just surrounded with all this twisting topography. 1752 01:30:18,853 --> 01:30:21,293 Speaker 6: It's a sweetheart of a down candy. See what I 1753 01:30:21,333 --> 01:30:25,013 Speaker 6: did there. The city has swathed in all these lush 1754 01:30:25,133 --> 01:30:28,613 Speaker 6: jungle greens. You've got roly poly hells and this amazing 1755 01:30:28,693 --> 01:30:32,893 Speaker 6: man made lake, glorious soothing lake right in its heart. 1756 01:30:33,333 --> 01:30:35,933 Speaker 6: The thing about that lake is the prize drawer is 1757 01:30:36,053 --> 01:30:39,333 Speaker 6: right next to it, the gorgeous Temple of the Tooth Relic. 1758 01:30:39,733 --> 01:30:42,973 Speaker 6: And I learnt a lot about this toothjack So supposedly 1759 01:30:43,453 --> 01:30:47,453 Speaker 6: it is one of Buddha's teeth, taken from his funeral 1760 01:30:47,533 --> 01:30:51,093 Speaker 6: pyre and smuggled into Sri Lanka seventeen hundred years ago, 1761 01:30:52,173 --> 01:30:55,373 Speaker 6: hidden in the hair of a princess. No less so, 1762 01:30:56,093 --> 01:30:59,373 Speaker 6: if you're a Sri Lankan Buddhist, you have to take 1763 01:30:59,413 --> 01:31:03,333 Speaker 6: a pilgrimage to this temple in your lifetime to enhance 1764 01:31:03,373 --> 01:31:08,013 Speaker 6: your karmic energy. And the place was absolutely heaving with pilgrims. 1765 01:31:08,013 --> 01:31:08,933 Speaker 6: It was quite a sight. 1766 01:31:09,133 --> 01:31:10,413 Speaker 2: Wow, did you see the tooth? 1767 01:31:11,333 --> 01:31:16,173 Speaker 6: No, you can't see the tooth that has locked away 1768 01:31:16,213 --> 01:31:19,893 Speaker 6: in a golden casket right inside the shrone room. In 1769 01:31:19,933 --> 01:31:24,133 Speaker 6: the shrine room, Apparently it's whirled out about once every decade, right, 1770 01:31:25,173 --> 01:31:28,653 Speaker 6: and then every year around the full moon in July, 1771 01:31:28,773 --> 01:31:32,813 Speaker 6: they have this massive exuberant festival called petter Hera, which 1772 01:31:33,693 --> 01:31:36,413 Speaker 6: goes on for about ten days full pageantry. They had 1773 01:31:36,453 --> 01:31:42,893 Speaker 6: one hundred elaborately decorated elephants dripping with jewels on parade. 1774 01:31:43,493 --> 01:31:47,213 Speaker 6: In the lead elephant, mister Tusker, he carries a replica 1775 01:31:47,613 --> 01:31:49,733 Speaker 6: of the tooth, so they don't even wheel out the 1776 01:31:49,813 --> 01:31:53,253 Speaker 6: real tooth for the big festival. But I was getting 1777 01:31:53,293 --> 01:31:55,733 Speaker 6: too a few local seck and it's funny. Some people 1778 01:31:55,813 --> 01:31:57,533 Speaker 6: reckon it's actually a buffalo tooth. 1779 01:31:58,493 --> 01:32:02,733 Speaker 2: Oh really, yeah, surely you'll be able to tell a difference. 1780 01:32:03,373 --> 01:32:05,853 Speaker 6: Well, they think it's just not a human tooth. Those 1781 01:32:05,893 --> 01:32:09,213 Speaker 6: that have seen reckon that it's too big. 1782 01:32:10,893 --> 01:32:13,053 Speaker 2: No one's itching to go into it like a DNA 1783 01:32:13,133 --> 01:32:15,013 Speaker 2: test on or anything. I had to work it out, 1784 01:32:15,093 --> 01:32:19,573 Speaker 2: yeah through yeah, okay, how amazing. So was the Central 1785 01:32:19,613 --> 01:32:21,133 Speaker 2: market worth a bit of a wonder? 1786 01:32:21,853 --> 01:32:24,453 Speaker 6: Oh my goodness, it was so enthrawling. I ended up 1787 01:32:24,493 --> 01:32:27,533 Speaker 6: talking cricket with these lovely old men who were wearing 1788 01:32:27,573 --> 01:32:31,493 Speaker 6: away on the antique singer sewing machines in the tailor's section. 1789 01:32:32,933 --> 01:32:35,493 Speaker 6: Then I went to the fresh fresh produce market, which 1790 01:32:35,653 --> 01:32:39,653 Speaker 6: just radiates with abundance. I have never seen so many 1791 01:32:39,693 --> 01:32:43,733 Speaker 6: banana varieties in my life, just so many different types 1792 01:32:43,773 --> 01:32:47,013 Speaker 6: of bananas. And then in the meat and seafood section, 1793 01:32:47,093 --> 01:32:51,053 Speaker 6: well that was explicit and confronting, and I actually parked 1794 01:32:51,093 --> 01:32:55,813 Speaker 6: up my protein preferences for several days. After that, I 1795 01:32:55,893 --> 01:32:58,693 Speaker 6: became a temporary vegetarian. And you can't go wrong with 1796 01:32:58,733 --> 01:33:02,333 Speaker 6: a dull curry or a jet fruit curry in Sri Lanka. 1797 01:33:02,373 --> 01:33:05,893 Speaker 6: Although to be fair, Jet unlike India, spreaded deli belly. 1798 01:33:06,693 --> 01:33:09,133 Speaker 6: No stomach issues at all in Sri Lanka. 1799 01:33:09,173 --> 01:33:11,293 Speaker 2: Great. Oh that's good. So when you say it was 1800 01:33:11,333 --> 01:33:13,813 Speaker 2: a little bit eye opening, was it just liked and 1801 01:33:13,853 --> 01:33:15,573 Speaker 2: gore or was it so like you know, like not 1802 01:33:16,253 --> 01:33:18,053 Speaker 2: Jack setting it. 1803 01:33:18,253 --> 01:33:21,773 Speaker 6: Was the hygiene question, Yeah, it was. It was pretty bad. 1804 01:33:21,893 --> 01:33:23,733 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, yep, no, I get it. We don't need 1805 01:33:23,773 --> 01:33:26,733 Speaker 2: to go into any more. What about the tea factories? 1806 01:33:26,773 --> 01:33:28,213 Speaker 2: Can you tour the tea factories? 1807 01:33:28,733 --> 01:33:30,613 Speaker 6: Yeah? This is such a cool thing to do. So 1808 01:33:30,733 --> 01:33:33,293 Speaker 6: Candy's got a lot of the tea factories in Tri Lanka, 1809 01:33:33,333 --> 01:33:35,573 Speaker 6: and I went to a place called Girigama te Factory. 1810 01:33:35,573 --> 01:33:38,173 Speaker 6: It's one of your pace of old school factories. They 1811 01:33:38,253 --> 01:33:41,573 Speaker 6: have got machines near jack which like do the drying 1812 01:33:41,653 --> 01:33:44,293 Speaker 6: and the processing of the tea, which had not changed 1813 01:33:44,333 --> 01:33:48,413 Speaker 6: in one hundred years, the same machines. So when Victoria 1814 01:33:48,533 --> 01:33:52,453 Speaker 6: was on the throne. These machines were operating amazing. Yeah, 1815 01:33:52,693 --> 01:33:55,053 Speaker 6: but I was so fascinating to learn the whole sort 1816 01:33:55,053 --> 01:33:59,893 Speaker 6: of backstory to the tea plantations in Sri Lanka and 1817 01:33:59,933 --> 01:34:03,213 Speaker 6: they are still one of the world's top five te exporters. 1818 01:34:03,253 --> 01:34:07,173 Speaker 6: But the British who were responsible for sill On Tea, 1819 01:34:08,013 --> 01:34:11,813 Speaker 6: they first actually tried to turn Selon as they called it, 1820 01:34:11,933 --> 01:34:15,893 Speaker 6: into a coffee producing carehouse, but all the plants were 1821 01:34:15,933 --> 01:34:18,933 Speaker 6: struck by a fungal disease, so that was a total disaster. 1822 01:34:19,573 --> 01:34:21,853 Speaker 6: And then this guy, James Taylor, he is like the 1823 01:34:21,853 --> 01:34:25,493 Speaker 6: father of Selon tea. He thought, let's give tea crek 1824 01:34:26,013 --> 01:34:28,173 Speaker 6: and it's just transformed the nation. 1825 01:34:28,493 --> 01:34:31,293 Speaker 2: Yeah. Interesting, I presume that James Tyler is different to 1826 01:34:31,693 --> 01:34:32,933 Speaker 2: the James Taylor. 1827 01:34:32,973 --> 01:34:37,053 Speaker 6: The muso. Yeah. 1828 01:34:37,173 --> 01:34:39,453 Speaker 2: So it's the hill country landscape, just like all tea 1829 01:34:39,493 --> 01:34:40,573 Speaker 2: plantations everywhere. 1830 01:34:41,413 --> 01:34:44,733 Speaker 6: Well, it's really interesting. It's a total patchwork. So you've 1831 01:34:44,773 --> 01:34:49,533 Speaker 6: got like high country jungle forests splashed with these gods 1832 01:34:49,613 --> 01:34:53,733 Speaker 6: making waterfalls. I've never seen such enormous waterfalls before. And 1833 01:34:53,773 --> 01:34:59,053 Speaker 6: then interspersing all that vast blankets of thickly stitched, undulating 1834 01:34:59,333 --> 01:35:03,413 Speaker 6: emerald green tea plantations and you just feel like you're 1835 01:35:03,453 --> 01:35:08,053 Speaker 6: constantly switching from nature to nurture, nature, nurture, and it's 1836 01:35:08,093 --> 01:35:11,933 Speaker 6: such a stylized landscape. Those tea estates. A lot of 1837 01:35:11,933 --> 01:35:16,533 Speaker 6: the teepickers are tamils, so amongst all those grim plantations, 1838 01:35:17,133 --> 01:35:21,813 Speaker 6: this blaze of colorful saris adding to the scenery. It 1839 01:35:22,373 --> 01:35:24,653 Speaker 6: really is a visual symphony. And the best way to 1840 01:35:24,733 --> 01:35:28,173 Speaker 6: do that that sort of scenic experience is just jump 1841 01:35:28,213 --> 01:35:30,733 Speaker 6: on a train from Candy and head up to the 1842 01:35:30,813 --> 01:35:33,933 Speaker 6: higher reaches. It really is an incredible spectacle. 1843 01:35:34,173 --> 01:35:35,693 Speaker 2: Oh nice. So how high did you go? 1844 01:35:37,053 --> 01:35:40,013 Speaker 6: I went up to a place called New Water and 1845 01:35:40,293 --> 01:35:43,133 Speaker 6: it is about six and a half thousand feet high. 1846 01:35:43,173 --> 01:35:47,893 Speaker 6: So what's that about? To two thousand meetings? Yeah, hope 1847 01:35:47,933 --> 01:35:52,573 Speaker 6: that it would be Mount Harts, Yeah, absolutely, Yeah. The 1848 01:35:52,653 --> 01:35:56,813 Speaker 6: temperature change incredibly startling compared to the you know, the 1849 01:35:56,853 --> 01:36:00,813 Speaker 6: steam heat down in the Lowlands. But you're all those 1850 01:36:00,893 --> 01:36:03,853 Speaker 6: tea plantations up there in new Water, Alia, they're all 1851 01:36:03,933 --> 01:36:07,653 Speaker 6: misst shrouded. The place is Nick James, Little England, and 1852 01:36:07,693 --> 01:36:10,773 Speaker 6: it's so weird Jack. It feels a bit discombobulating. There 1853 01:36:10,773 --> 01:36:14,173 Speaker 6: are all of these quaint and jaunty reminders of British influence. 1854 01:36:14,893 --> 01:36:20,733 Speaker 6: I was buying rock candy from faux Tudor shops in 1855 01:36:20,893 --> 01:36:25,573 Speaker 6: downtown New Wada, Ellia and at the local market, I 1856 01:36:25,573 --> 01:36:28,213 Speaker 6: thought this said at all. I was most amused to 1857 01:36:28,253 --> 01:36:32,093 Speaker 6: see these Tamil locals, clad and saris and wooly hats 1858 01:36:32,693 --> 01:36:36,133 Speaker 6: haggling over the price of OsO English vegetables like cabbage, 1859 01:36:36,133 --> 01:36:41,773 Speaker 6: turnips and parsnips. That's the Sri Lankan highlands and one 1860 01:36:41,893 --> 01:36:43,373 Speaker 6: sweet curious snapshot. 1861 01:36:43,413 --> 01:36:45,493 Speaker 2: I thought it sounds amazing. It sounds like a very 1862 01:36:45,533 --> 01:36:47,813 Speaker 2: interesting place. You've totally sold me on Sri Lanka over 1863 01:36:47,853 --> 01:36:49,533 Speaker 2: the last couple of weeks. By the way, I'm really 1864 01:36:49,813 --> 01:36:51,493 Speaker 2: I've not been here. I would love to go there. 1865 01:36:51,653 --> 01:36:53,933 Speaker 6: Yeah, I would love to go back.

But he's going to 1930 01:40:08,853 --> 01:40:10,333 Speaker 2: be starting from the back of the grid for the 1931 01:40:10,373 --> 01:40:11,293 Speaker 2: actual Grand Prix. 1932 01:40:12,013 --> 01:40:15,173 Speaker 23: Yeah, and look, I guess we have to probably limit 1933 01:40:15,213 --> 01:40:17,253 Speaker 23: our expectations a little bit. I mean, it's been all 1934 01:40:17,293 --> 01:40:19,693 Speaker 23: this ground swell of hey, let's get Liam Lawson in 1935 01:40:19,733 --> 01:40:21,573 Speaker 23: a Formula one drive, and I think we all agree 1936 01:40:21,613 --> 01:40:23,933 Speaker 23: that he deserves to be there. But he is still 1937 01:40:23,933 --> 01:40:26,213 Speaker 23: a relative novice when it comes to this, so let's 1938 01:40:26,253 --> 01:40:29,253 Speaker 23: not forget that. However, he's a pretty special kid from 1939 01:40:29,293 --> 01:40:32,213 Speaker 23: all accounts, and look, they don't just hand out Formula 1940 01:40:32,293 --> 01:40:34,253 Speaker 23: one drives check to anybody, as we know. 1941 01:40:34,413 --> 01:40:36,333 Speaker 12: So look, I can't wait to see how he goes. 1942 01:40:36,373 --> 01:40:40,053 Speaker 23: I think the actual races Monday around breakfast time in 1943 01:40:40,093 --> 01:40:42,413 Speaker 23: New Zealand. So yeah, look forward to seeing how Liam goes. 1944 01:40:42,453 --> 01:40:44,693 Speaker 23: And just great to know that he's got that drive 1945 01:40:44,733 --> 01:40:46,613 Speaker 23: for the rest of this year. And as long as 1946 01:40:46,813 --> 01:40:49,693 Speaker 23: he acquits himself pretty well, which I all think you know, 1947 01:40:49,693 --> 01:40:52,093 Speaker 23: which we all think he will, then you know, twenty 1948 01:40:52,133 --> 01:40:55,133 Speaker 23: twenty five will also be a full year in the 1949 01:40:55,173 --> 01:40:57,533 Speaker 23: seat for Liam's say, exciting times ahead for him. 1950 01:40:57,613 --> 01:40:59,413 Speaker 2: Yeah, what do you make of that White Fern's performances? 1951 01:40:59,773 --> 01:41:00,293 Speaker 12: How good? 1952 01:41:00,413 --> 01:41:01,773 Speaker 2: How good?

There's a looping of vocals 2183 01:51:44,453 --> 01:51:48,813 Speaker 21: and she wanted to embrace that over stimulation that you 2184 01:51:48,893 --> 01:51:53,973 Speaker 21: get from being online, how to put that into a musicality. 2185 01:51:54,053 --> 01:51:56,693 Speaker 21: And I think she's actually, I think she's really ace. 2186 01:51:57,773 --> 01:51:59,853 Speaker 21: I mean, you have to listen to sort of you know, 2187 01:51:59,893 --> 01:52:01,613 Speaker 21: understand what it is I'm kind of going on about. 2188 01:52:02,213 --> 01:52:06,093 Speaker 21: And the theme is really about empowering self protection, building 2189 01:52:06,093 --> 01:52:11,093 Speaker 21: a full feels around you, but again with that relentless 2190 01:52:11,173 --> 01:52:13,373 Speaker 21: kind of bombardment, which is what the Muna does right 2191 01:52:13,413 --> 01:52:17,853 Speaker 21: of that stimulation of us constantly scrolling on our phones in. 2192 01:52:17,773 --> 01:52:20,453 Speaker 18: The digital world. So this album does actually speak a 2193 01:52:20,453 --> 01:52:20,933 Speaker 18: lot to that. 2194 01:52:21,013 --> 01:52:25,773 Speaker 21: It's it's called idols and vices, so that phrase and 2195 01:52:26,133 --> 01:52:30,653 Speaker 21: glory we give to celebs and influences, and some of 2196 01:52:30,693 --> 01:52:34,853 Speaker 21: it really crosses the line sometimes and again she's sometimes 2197 01:52:34,893 --> 01:52:36,773 Speaker 21: done that and the lyrics that she's delivered there and 2198 01:52:36,853 --> 01:52:40,293 Speaker 21: sometimes you'll find it in the musicality. I was so 2199 01:52:40,533 --> 01:52:42,093 Speaker 21: fa fascinating concepts I was. 2200 01:52:42,373 --> 01:52:44,613 Speaker 2: I was so excited when I saw she was collaborating 2201 01:52:44,773 --> 01:52:48,013 Speaker 2: collaborating with Banks. Banks is one of those artists who 2202 01:52:48,253 --> 01:52:52,013 Speaker 2: this happens extremely rarely in my life, but I felt 2203 01:52:52,013 --> 01:52:54,613 Speaker 2: like I got on the Banks buzz really early, like 2204 01:52:54,733 --> 01:52:57,253 Speaker 2: before Banks was cool, and then Banks kind of grew 2205 01:52:57,613 --> 01:52:59,453 Speaker 2: like blew up and kind of became cool. When I 2206 01:52:59,493 --> 01:53:02,013 Speaker 2: could be, you know, really ostentatious and be like, oh, 2207 01:53:02,053 --> 01:53:04,093 Speaker 2: are you only just listening to Banks now you know. 2208 01:53:04,253 --> 01:53:08,093 Speaker 21: So yeah, and of course it's like just one of 2209 01:53:08,173 --> 01:53:11,533 Speaker 21: Kimber's friends, right, it's someone that she knows. Yeah, there's 2210 01:53:11,573 --> 01:53:13,813 Speaker 21: some really great collaborations like that, and I think they 2211 01:53:13,853 --> 01:53:17,453 Speaker 21: really add something. But again, I think it's her cleverness 2212 01:53:17,493 --> 01:53:19,093 Speaker 21: and being able to know what it is that they 2213 01:53:19,133 --> 01:53:22,013 Speaker 21: can add to what she wants to tell. And I 2214 01:53:22,013 --> 01:53:24,453 Speaker 21: think that's what makes a really good collaboration. 2215 01:53:24,693 --> 01:53:26,093 Speaker 18: And it's nice just to. 2216 01:53:28,253 --> 01:53:30,013 Speaker 21: You can just listen to it, but then you can 2217 01:53:30,093 --> 01:53:32,013 Speaker 21: really sink into more of it.
