But that is going to 107 00:05:12,293 --> 00:05:14,253 Speaker 3: be a great chat after two o'clock. But right now, 108 00:05:14,333 --> 00:05:18,133 Speaker 3: let's have a chat about the increasing price of alcohol 109 00:05:18,373 --> 00:05:21,613 Speaker 3: at off license stores. That's a request being made by 110 00:05:21,773 --> 00:05:25,453 Speaker 3: a publican and a police officer for different reasons from 111 00:05:25,453 --> 00:05:28,653 Speaker 3: the publican and the hospitality side of things. They can 112 00:05:28,693 --> 00:05:31,053 Speaker 3: see and the evidence is pretty clear that most of 113 00:05:31,093 --> 00:05:34,653 Speaker 3: the alcohol harm as recorded happens in private homes. 114 00:05:34,933 --> 00:05:39,573 Speaker 2: Absolutely, so police and hospitality groups argue off license alcohol 115 00:05:39,613 --> 00:05:44,533 Speaker 2: is disproportionately linked to harmful drinking, especially in homes. Restaurants 116 00:05:44,533 --> 00:05:47,653 Speaker 2: and bars they hire people not just in them to 117 00:05:47,733 --> 00:05:51,693 Speaker 2: work in them, to serve in them, cooking them and such, 118 00:05:51,733 --> 00:05:55,373 Speaker 2: but also to build them. And look, I know this 119 00:05:55,413 --> 00:05:59,853 Speaker 2: is a complex issue around how excise tax is implemented, 120 00:06:00,653 --> 00:06:04,893 Speaker 2: but I believe that that the bars absolutely should be 121 00:06:04,893 --> 00:06:08,293 Speaker 2: playing the bars and restaurants absolutely should be playing less 122 00:06:08,973 --> 00:06:12,973 Speaker 2: less tax because they do less damage. Yeah, I would, 123 00:06:13,293 --> 00:06:14,373 Speaker 2: you know, I would go all the way and say 124 00:06:14,373 --> 00:06:16,253 Speaker 2: they should be paying They shouldn't be paying anything more 125 00:06:16,253 --> 00:06:18,493 Speaker 2: than GST due to the good that bars and restaurants 126 00:06:18,493 --> 00:06:21,653 Speaker 2: do in the community. But you know, keep the excise 127 00:06:21,693 --> 00:06:24,453 Speaker 2: tax on off licenses where eighty four percent of booze 128 00:06:24,453 --> 00:06:28,493 Speaker 2: is sold, how much better would New Zealand be and 129 00:06:28,893 --> 00:06:31,213 Speaker 2: how much better would our economy be and our society 130 00:06:31,253 --> 00:06:34,053 Speaker 2: be of eighty four percent was consumed at bars and 131 00:06:34,093 --> 00:06:36,613 Speaker 2: restaurants instead of eighty four percent of our coal being 132 00:06:36,653 --> 00:06:38,933 Speaker 2: consumed at home. Yeah, seems like a one to one. 133 00:06:38,973 --> 00:06:40,453 Speaker 3: But keen to hear from you, oh, eight hundred and 134 00:06:40,453 --> 00:06:42,613 Speaker 3: eighty ten eighty if you work in the business, really 135 00:06:42,693 --> 00:06:45,213 Speaker 3: keen to get your thoughts is increase in the price 136 00:06:45,213 --> 00:06:47,973 Speaker 3: of booze at off license your liquors thought and drastically 137 00:06:48,013 --> 00:06:50,093 Speaker 3: reducing it at your bars and restaurants? 138 00:06:50,093 --> 00:06:52,973 Speaker 2: And supplementary question that someone should be Hopefully someone can 139 00:06:53,013 --> 00:06:56,053 Speaker 2: ask why are we why is it excise tax? Why 140 00:06:56,133 --> 00:07:01,613 Speaker 2: is it why is the tax enacted by customs when 141 00:07:03,053 --> 00:07:05,013 Speaker 2: a lot of our coals manufactured in New Zealand. Yeah, 142 00:07:05,013 --> 00:07:07,053 Speaker 2: it seems like a very complicated way to go about. 143 00:07:06,853 --> 00:07:08,853 Speaker 3: That went under the radar, didn't that's so so coming 144 00:07:08,933 --> 00:07:11,173 Speaker 3: up we are going to have a chat to Sam McKinnon. 145 00:07:11,253 --> 00:07:14,173 Speaker 3: He is the head of communications at Hospitality in z 146 00:07:14,373 --> 00:07:16,893 Speaker 3: We're really keen to get their thoughts, but also we've 147 00:07:16,893 --> 00:07:18,693 Speaker 3: got a few questions for them as well.

An excise tax seems to 177 00:08:40,732 --> 00:08:42,772 Speaker 2: suggest it's a customs based thing. 178 00:08:44,012 --> 00:08:47,373 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it is excise taxes administered by the 179 00:08:47,413 --> 00:08:51,813 Speaker 5: Customs Customs in New Zealand, and I guess it's probably a 180 00:08:51,813 --> 00:08:54,173 Speaker 5: bit of a historical historical. 181 00:08:53,732 --> 00:08:54,613 Speaker 8: Anominally given that. 182 00:08:56,533 --> 00:09:00,613 Speaker 5: Most of the booze and tobacco was originally imported into 183 00:09:00,653 --> 00:09:04,653 Speaker 5: New Zealand. So I guess customs manage that process and 184 00:09:04,693 --> 00:09:06,973 Speaker 5: then have continued to do so. 185 00:09:06,973 --> 00:09:09,613 Speaker 2: So if you manufacture that alcohol in New Zealand, you 186 00:09:09,693 --> 00:09:13,173 Speaker 2: have to put it through a bonded warehouse. 187 00:09:14,533 --> 00:09:17,292 Speaker 5: Yeah, well, there's some exemptions. You probably testing my knowledge 188 00:09:17,333 --> 00:09:23,453 Speaker 5: exactly on the Customs Customs process works, but you know 189 00:09:23,732 --> 00:09:25,772 Speaker 5: there are some exemptions to those rules. But buy and 190 00:09:25,852 --> 00:09:27,932 Speaker 5: large most of the alcohol you're buying. 191 00:09:27,653 --> 00:09:28,692 Speaker 9: In New Zealand. 192 00:09:30,653 --> 00:09:34,372 Speaker 5: As the excise taxes collected by customs. 193 00:09:34,892 --> 00:09:37,293 Speaker 2: Now, this is obviously a leading question, Sam, But what 194 00:09:37,413 --> 00:09:39,813 Speaker 2: causes the most harm in New Zealand alcohol drunk at 195 00:09:39,813 --> 00:09:41,532 Speaker 2: home or at bars and restaurants? 196 00:09:42,892 --> 00:09:46,613 Speaker 5: Yeah, hospitality in New Zealand. You know, we feel that 197 00:09:47,132 --> 00:09:52,453 Speaker 5: well run, licensed premises are the safest place to consume alcohol. 198 00:09:52,533 --> 00:09:55,132 Speaker 5: So in our view, if you're drinking at a pub. 199 00:09:55,413 --> 00:09:57,653 Speaker 5: We're looking after point of consumption as well as point 200 00:09:57,653 --> 00:10:01,252 Speaker 5: of sale. The opportunity for harm to occur as much lower. 201 00:10:02,492 --> 00:10:05,772 Speaker 2: So what would hospitality and New Zealand like to see 202 00:10:05,892 --> 00:10:08,573 Speaker 2: happen to move the balance from eighty four percent of 203 00:10:08,653 --> 00:10:11,493 Speaker 2: alcohol being drunk at home or brought on off licenses 204 00:10:12,132 --> 00:10:16,293 Speaker 2: and move that more towards people drinking in bars and restaurants. 205 00:10:17,173 --> 00:10:21,013 Speaker 5: Yeah, I sent, there's some opportunity to look at the 206 00:10:21,093 --> 00:10:24,732 Speaker 5: rules around excise tax and the amount that's paid in 207 00:10:25,173 --> 00:10:30,252 Speaker 5: the on premise environment across beer, wine and spirits. You know, 208 00:10:30,573 --> 00:10:35,213 Speaker 5: the annual increase on excise tax since twenty twenty one 209 00:10:35,293 --> 00:10:37,173 Speaker 5: to twenty twenty four, there was a nine ten percent 210 00:10:37,213 --> 00:10:39,733 Speaker 5: increase in excise tax. So when you look at the 211 00:10:39,732 --> 00:10:42,293 Speaker 5: cost of a KEG, forty seven percent of that prices 212 00:10:42,333 --> 00:10:43,933 Speaker 5: tax when you're including GST. 213 00:10:44,213 --> 00:10:44,453 Speaker 7: Wow. 214 00:10:44,973 --> 00:10:47,852 Speaker 5: So looking at how you can how you can change 215 00:10:47,852 --> 00:10:52,213 Speaker 5: some of those parameters, which certainly improves the costings for 216 00:10:53,132 --> 00:10:55,813 Speaker 5: on premise environments and I guess enable us to pass 217 00:10:55,852 --> 00:10:58,253 Speaker 5: some of that cost on and encourage some on premise consumption. 218 00:10:58,653 --> 00:11:02,172 Speaker 3: Are we an outlier sam to other jurisdictions around the 219 00:11:02,173 --> 00:11:06,492 Speaker 3: world Australia, for example, do they have regulations in place 220 00:11:06,533 --> 00:11:09,653 Speaker 3: that makes it more expensive to buy your personal booze 221 00:11:09,892 --> 00:11:11,013 Speaker 3: then go to a BT. 222 00:11:11,973 --> 00:11:14,292 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean they're costing regime is a bit different 223 00:11:14,333 --> 00:11:18,372 Speaker 5: to us. So your your cost of off premise purchase 224 00:11:18,413 --> 00:11:20,613 Speaker 5: a buying from a bottle shop versus buying in a 225 00:11:20,612 --> 00:11:24,693 Speaker 5: pub about the same And so I guess your decision 226 00:11:24,693 --> 00:11:28,453 Speaker 5: making is around the occasion that you're looking to consume 227 00:11:28,573 --> 00:11:31,173 Speaker 5: rather than it just being cost driven. We look at 228 00:11:31,372 --> 00:11:36,533 Speaker 5: at the UK post COVID, they've they've sort of had 229 00:11:36,533 --> 00:11:40,213 Speaker 5: a look at how they can improve some encouraging on 230 00:11:40,213 --> 00:11:42,612 Speaker 5: premise consumption and they're put in a two year freeze 231 00:11:42,653 --> 00:11:46,893 Speaker 5: on on text increases for pubs. So you know, there's 232 00:11:46,892 --> 00:11:49,612 Speaker 5: there's there's different ways that we can sort of manage this, 233 00:11:49,773 --> 00:11:53,852 Speaker 5: And I guess we would love to see hospitality recognized 234 00:11:53,892 --> 00:11:56,132 Speaker 5: for its value to communities, but by being able to 235 00:11:56,372 --> 00:11:58,133 Speaker 5: centivize more of that on premise consumption. 236 00:11:58,973 --> 00:11:59,173 Speaker 6: Yeah. 237 00:11:59,213 --> 00:12:02,412 Speaker 2: I mean obviously an easy way would be for keg 238 00:12:02,453 --> 00:12:05,413 Speaker 2: beer to be text at a different rate, because you know, 239 00:12:05,492 --> 00:12:07,573 Speaker 2: people aren't buying a keygn taking them home very often, 240 00:12:07,612 --> 00:12:10,133 Speaker 2: are they for restaurants and bars? 241 00:12:10,852 --> 00:12:14,373 Speaker 5: Yeah? Yeah, absolutely, absolutely, I think, you know, for in 242 00:12:14,453 --> 00:12:17,093 Speaker 5: our view that's the most logical way to go about it. 243 00:12:17,173 --> 00:12:19,493 Speaker 5: And looking at Laura in the price, particularly on the 244 00:12:19,533 --> 00:12:22,732 Speaker 5: Tap beverage keys, which as you know, it's primarily there 245 00:12:22,732 --> 00:12:26,893 Speaker 5: but increasingly some other tep spirits and tap one. So 246 00:12:28,053 --> 00:12:31,093 Speaker 5: but given that they're served primarily on premise, there's I 247 00:12:31,132 --> 00:12:37,133 Speaker 5: guess less concern about whether or not that's or I 248 00:12:37,132 --> 00:12:39,213 Speaker 5: guess acknowledging that that's going to be supporting the on 249 00:12:39,293 --> 00:12:40,133 Speaker 5: premise environment. 250 00:12:40,773 --> 00:12:43,853 Speaker 3: What has been the response from the government Sam with 251 00:12:44,053 --> 00:12:47,213 Speaker 3: these I'm sure these discussions have taken place on how 252 00:12:47,333 --> 00:12:50,252 Speaker 3: to help boost hospitality, make it an even playing field. 253 00:12:50,252 --> 00:12:51,813 Speaker 3: And when you mentioned what they did in the UK, 254 00:12:51,892 --> 00:12:55,413 Speaker 3: I'm surprised our government hasn't suggested something similar. But what 255 00:12:55,492 --> 00:12:57,413 Speaker 3: are you hearing back from them? Are they looking into 256 00:12:57,453 --> 00:12:58,012 Speaker 3: what they can do? 257 00:13:00,693 --> 00:13:03,053 Speaker 5: I think their focus at the moment is primarily on 258 00:13:03,333 --> 00:13:05,973 Speaker 5: driving visitation to New Zealand and that sort of tourism 259 00:13:05,973 --> 00:13:09,613 Speaker 5: and hospitality space, and then also looking at some of 260 00:13:09,653 --> 00:13:13,333 Speaker 5: the other small business compliance stuff so that the appetite 261 00:13:13,973 --> 00:13:18,132 Speaker 5: or certainly what we're what we've heard is that though 262 00:13:18,653 --> 00:13:22,053 Speaker 5: there's a little bit more sensitivity around looking alcohol specific measures, 263 00:13:22,533 --> 00:13:24,813 Speaker 5: but they're looking to support us for in other ways. 264 00:13:25,252 --> 00:13:28,292 Speaker 2: It's quite a complex thing, isn't it, Because you would, 265 00:13:29,012 --> 00:13:30,813 Speaker 2: you know, just on just you know, running my head 266 00:13:30,813 --> 00:13:33,492 Speaker 2: across something like why why isn't the tax imposed point 267 00:13:33,492 --> 00:13:37,213 Speaker 2: of point of sale? But it does get pretty complex, 268 00:13:37,293 --> 00:13:39,173 Speaker 2: isn't it, Because you can get someone that's buying an 269 00:13:39,252 --> 00:13:42,253 Speaker 2: rt D in a bottle out of a you know, 270 00:13:42,252 --> 00:13:45,813 Speaker 2: out of the fridge, and that's going up against someone, 271 00:13:46,333 --> 00:13:49,132 Speaker 2: you know, the bartender pouring drinks, you know, poor pooring 272 00:13:49,213 --> 00:13:52,132 Speaker 2: drinks with mixers. So is it just too complicated to 273 00:13:53,132 --> 00:13:55,213 Speaker 2: change it to a point of sale taxing situation? 274 00:13:56,973 --> 00:14:00,053 Speaker 5: There is a differentiation depending on the percentage as well, 275 00:14:00,132 --> 00:14:03,653 Speaker 5: so I think that that's part of the challenge. So yeah, 276 00:14:03,693 --> 00:14:10,173 Speaker 5: I mean, I think thinking about where where the consumption occurs. 277 00:14:10,213 --> 00:14:13,653 Speaker 5: I'm sure, I'm sure that there's ways that the ID 278 00:14:13,973 --> 00:14:15,773 Speaker 5: or customs could look at that, but I don't know 279 00:14:15,813 --> 00:14:17,653 Speaker 5: if the eptites there really right. 280 00:14:18,293 --> 00:14:21,133 Speaker 2: And how's hospital going in New Zealand at the moment? 281 00:14:21,173 --> 00:14:22,533 Speaker 2: Are we bouncing back yet? 282 00:14:23,413 --> 00:14:23,613 Speaker 7: Yeah? 283 00:14:23,893 --> 00:14:26,733 Speaker 5: I think we're really positive about the direction of travel. 284 00:14:26,773 --> 00:14:30,613 Speaker 5: We've just had our two day conference in Wellington and 285 00:14:30,813 --> 00:14:33,413 Speaker 5: I guess the key message there is the headlines are 286 00:14:33,413 --> 00:14:36,613 Speaker 5: looking I tend to focus on the negative, but you know, 287 00:14:36,693 --> 00:14:40,773 Speaker 5: there's more venues opening every week. There's more venues opening 288 00:14:40,813 --> 00:14:44,573 Speaker 5: now than there was last year, So you know, numbers 289 00:14:44,613 --> 00:14:47,173 Speaker 5: are looking up and we're continuing to see that sort 290 00:14:47,213 --> 00:14:50,013 Speaker 5: of passion for the industries. So we're positive about the 291 00:14:50,013 --> 00:14:51,973 Speaker 5: direction of travel. It's not to say that it's not 292 00:14:52,053 --> 00:14:56,613 Speaker 5: hard right now. Obviously we're in winter and people don't 293 00:14:56,653 --> 00:14:58,293 Speaker 5: go out as much and all that sort of stuff, 294 00:14:58,333 --> 00:15:01,373 Speaker 5: But you know, on the whole, really positive about the 295 00:15:01,413 --> 00:15:02,173 Speaker 5: direction of travel. 296 00:15:02,413 --> 00:15:04,413 Speaker 2: And finally, before you go, when we talk about the 297 00:15:04,413 --> 00:15:07,973 Speaker 2: good of hospitality restaurants and bars in New Zealand, how 298 00:15:08,013 --> 00:15:10,693 Speaker 2: far that spread out? So you've got the people that 299 00:15:10,733 --> 00:15:13,813 Speaker 2: are working there, but does it does it spread out 300 00:15:13,933 --> 00:15:18,573 Speaker 2: notably into you know the construction sect, you know the 301 00:15:18,613 --> 00:15:22,093 Speaker 2: shop fitting? How much does hospitality pump in this New 302 00:15:22,173 --> 00:15:24,813 Speaker 2: Zealand economy across across all its avenues? 303 00:15:26,053 --> 00:15:29,053 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I mean we if you're kind of 304 00:15:29,053 --> 00:15:31,412 Speaker 5: looking at there's the direct impacts I guess is what 305 00:15:31,453 --> 00:15:34,333 Speaker 5: you're talking about also around the indurrect stuff, So the 306 00:15:34,373 --> 00:15:37,853 Speaker 5: supplies that we're purchasing from the economic impact that that 307 00:15:37,933 --> 00:15:41,173 Speaker 5: all that sort of stuff can have, so so I 308 00:15:41,173 --> 00:15:44,052 Speaker 5: guess you know there's a there's a pretty large footprint 309 00:15:44,053 --> 00:15:49,173 Speaker 5: that Hospitality has and across New Zealand and where we're 310 00:15:49,213 --> 00:15:51,453 Speaker 5: able to be part of the community and support jobs 311 00:15:51,493 --> 00:15:56,373 Speaker 5: and job creation and all of the good stuff that 312 00:15:56,413 --> 00:15:58,853 Speaker 5: I guess people know I love about Hospitality. 313 00:15:59,293 --> 00:16:01,653 Speaker 2: Sam, great to chat, Thank you very much for coming on. 314 00:16:02,573 --> 00:16:03,293 Speaker 5: Thanks for having me. 315 00:16:03,493 --> 00:16:06,532 Speaker 3: That is Sam mcinnon, head of Communications at Hospitality in 316 00:16:06,573 --> 00:16:08,573 Speaker 3: New Zealand. So what do you say eight hundred eighty 317 00:16:08,613 --> 00:16:11,453 Speaker 3: ten eighty do we need to balance the field a 318 00:16:11,493 --> 00:16:13,373 Speaker 3: little bit when it comes to the price of alcohol 319 00:16:13,413 --> 00:16:17,493 Speaker 3: off license you liquor stores, supermarkets versus the bars, restaurants 320 00:16:17,573 --> 00:16:18,733 Speaker 3: and pubs. 321 00:16:18,533 --> 00:16:22,412 Speaker 2: Out of bare minimum. I think the lowering the XOS tax, 322 00:16:22,653 --> 00:16:25,013 Speaker 2: I mean I would support removing it completely if it's 323 00:16:25,053 --> 00:16:28,213 Speaker 2: going to bars and restaurants. If you want to move 324 00:16:28,213 --> 00:16:30,933 Speaker 2: that dial away from the eighty four percent being consumed 325 00:16:30,973 --> 00:16:33,773 Speaker 2: from off licensesn't at home, and I would say remove 326 00:16:33,773 --> 00:16:36,293 Speaker 2: it completely. I don't imagine anyone would get that across 327 00:16:36,333 --> 00:16:39,613 Speaker 2: the mark, but we should do something in my opinion, 328 00:16:39,773 --> 00:16:41,733 Speaker 2: and a very simple thing to do would be just 329 00:16:41,813 --> 00:16:44,013 Speaker 2: to lower the XOS tax on kegs because you know 330 00:16:44,093 --> 00:16:47,933 Speaker 2: that's going to be served in responsible establishments.

There's no difference. 373 00:18:26,933 --> 00:18:30,093 Speaker 3: So publicans are arguing, and actually they get in support 374 00:18:30,093 --> 00:18:32,813 Speaker 3: from some police officers as well, that that should change. 375 00:18:32,853 --> 00:18:36,533 Speaker 3: It should the cost of booze in a bar, restaurant, cafe, 376 00:18:36,653 --> 00:18:40,293 Speaker 3: whatever on license should be reduced and the off license 377 00:18:40,333 --> 00:18:43,293 Speaker 3: your liquor store should be increased to try and encourage 378 00:18:43,293 --> 00:18:44,293 Speaker 3: people to get back to the bars. 379 00:18:44,373 --> 00:18:44,573 Speaker 6: Yeah. 380 00:18:44,573 --> 00:18:47,413 Speaker 2: Police and hospitality groups argue off license alcohol is just 381 00:18:47,573 --> 00:18:50,693 Speaker 2: proportionately linked to harmful drinking, especially in holmes An. Eighty 382 00:18:50,733 --> 00:18:55,053 Speaker 2: four percent of the boos sold is sold off license 383 00:18:55,533 --> 00:19:00,093 Speaker 2: in supermarkets and bottle stores. We don't want that. We want, 384 00:19:00,213 --> 00:19:03,573 Speaker 2: in my opinion, we want it to be four percent, 385 00:19:03,893 --> 00:19:07,413 Speaker 2: which is at least fifty to fifty because of the 386 00:19:07,453 --> 00:19:10,093 Speaker 2: good that hospital Look, it's pretty simple, see Shane, make 387 00:19:10,093 --> 00:19:12,453 Speaker 2: alcohol and food cheaper in pubs and restaurants, people will 388 00:19:12,453 --> 00:19:15,733 Speaker 2: start going out.

Hi you man, very good God. The 391 00:19:25,893 --> 00:19:29,013 Speaker 2: same time, Yeah, I. 392 00:19:28,973 --> 00:19:32,173 Speaker 13: Just wanted to contribute to the conversation. I totally agree 393 00:19:32,173 --> 00:19:35,333 Speaker 13: with bringing the pricing down when it comes to how 394 00:19:35,373 --> 00:19:37,173 Speaker 13: much it costs to buy a drink in a bar 395 00:19:37,413 --> 00:19:40,613 Speaker 13: or any venus these days. I've been in hospitality my 396 00:19:40,653 --> 00:19:46,733 Speaker 13: whole life, run several establishments here and you're doing and overseas, 397 00:19:46,813 --> 00:19:50,013 Speaker 13: and I find one of the biggest situation is how 398 00:19:50,093 --> 00:19:54,093 Speaker 13: much it cost to get somewhere and get home as 399 00:19:54,173 --> 00:19:56,373 Speaker 13: the reason why a lot of people will drink at home. 400 00:19:57,213 --> 00:20:00,733 Speaker 13: For example, I live in Papamoa, and if I want 401 00:20:00,773 --> 00:20:02,933 Speaker 13: to go out to the mount with the girls and 402 00:20:03,053 --> 00:20:05,533 Speaker 13: have a good time, it can cost me one hundred 403 00:20:05,613 --> 00:20:07,173 Speaker 13: dollars to get there and back. 404 00:20:07,933 --> 00:20:09,333 Speaker 2: Yeah, just for the night. 405 00:20:09,493 --> 00:20:12,333 Speaker 13: And that's another issue with we just to have the 406 00:20:12,453 --> 00:20:15,293 Speaker 13: infrastructure of being able to get home. 407 00:20:15,693 --> 00:20:15,973 Speaker 14: Yeah. 408 00:20:16,093 --> 00:20:18,373 Speaker 7: Chiefly do you think so much money? 409 00:20:18,413 --> 00:20:21,653 Speaker 2: Do you think, Sam, if the balance was moved away 410 00:20:21,653 --> 00:20:25,253 Speaker 2: from off licenses towards bars, then they would be more 411 00:20:25,333 --> 00:20:28,933 Speaker 2: likely to have great bars and restaurants in your area, 412 00:20:29,413 --> 00:20:32,453 Speaker 2: if you see what I mean right now, Because you know, 413 00:20:32,493 --> 00:20:34,413 Speaker 2: eighty four percent of it is drunk at home, and 414 00:20:34,613 --> 00:20:37,133 Speaker 2: that leaves you know, a mere sixteen percent out in 415 00:20:37,173 --> 00:20:40,213 Speaker 2: the community that there are less bars and restaurants for 416 00:20:40,253 --> 00:20:41,812 Speaker 2: people like you to go do with your friends. 417 00:20:43,293 --> 00:20:44,133 Speaker 9: Yeah, definitely. 418 00:20:44,213 --> 00:20:47,093 Speaker 13: And because it's the cost and running a bar or 419 00:20:47,133 --> 00:20:50,573 Speaker 13: in any both venue is really high and it's really 420 00:20:50,613 --> 00:20:53,373 Speaker 13: hard to pay profit in the these days, and there's 421 00:20:53,413 --> 00:20:56,493 Speaker 13: just got enough people going out to them. But then 422 00:20:56,493 --> 00:20:59,573 Speaker 13: there's another part of that. So many people these days 423 00:20:59,573 --> 00:21:02,333 Speaker 13: they're having kids in their mid thirty so there's not 424 00:21:02,533 --> 00:21:06,213 Speaker 13: young kids, and there's not very many places that you 425 00:21:06,253 --> 00:21:08,293 Speaker 13: can take your kids that are going to keep it 426 00:21:08,613 --> 00:21:10,693 Speaker 13: ertain so that you could have a few drinks with 427 00:21:10,773 --> 00:21:14,253 Speaker 13: your friends and dinner and then taxi home or over home. 428 00:21:15,373 --> 00:21:17,813 Speaker 13: Not very many child friendly places. 429 00:21:17,933 --> 00:21:20,333 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, either, and that's why we go to each 430 00:21:20,373 --> 00:21:20,973 Speaker 4: other's houses. 431 00:21:21,733 --> 00:21:23,933 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a good point about the family, the family 432 00:21:24,213 --> 00:21:27,333 Speaker 3: friendly environment. But getting you know, getting to and from 433 00:21:27,613 --> 00:21:29,773 Speaker 3: that's always priced into a night and that's easy to 434 00:21:29,773 --> 00:21:32,773 Speaker 3: forget about it until you're getting ready for a night out. 435 00:21:32,853 --> 00:21:33,533 Speaker 2: And you're quite right. 436 00:21:33,573 --> 00:21:35,813 Speaker 3: I mean, for me just getting in and out of 437 00:21:35,813 --> 00:21:38,413 Speaker 3: the city, if I'm having a few drinks, that's seventy 438 00:21:38,413 --> 00:21:41,053 Speaker 3: bucks already without even without even buying a drink. 439 00:21:41,453 --> 00:21:42,853 Speaker 2: Yeah, so seventy bucks. 440 00:21:42,893 --> 00:21:45,173 Speaker 13: And you put that into your cost factor when you're 441 00:21:45,173 --> 00:21:47,173 Speaker 13: going out, you're like, oh, gosh, I'm already going to 442 00:21:47,253 --> 00:21:50,413 Speaker 13: send the seventy eighty dollars already. Yes, I can probably 443 00:21:50,413 --> 00:21:53,253 Speaker 13: only spend the other fifty sixty dollars. It's a lot 444 00:21:53,293 --> 00:21:55,053 Speaker 13: of money just for one night out to have a 445 00:21:55,053 --> 00:21:56,053 Speaker 13: few drinks. 446 00:21:56,533 --> 00:21:58,733 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, thank you for your call, Sam. It is 447 00:21:58,773 --> 00:22:01,493 Speaker 2: a lot better in big cities with Ubert though. Now, yeah, 448 00:22:01,493 --> 00:22:05,253 Speaker 2: I mean it's reasonably cheap. But yeah, I mean I 449 00:22:05,253 --> 00:22:07,933 Speaker 2: think it's fantastic the idea of people going around barbecues 450 00:22:07,933 --> 00:22:10,293 Speaker 2: in their back guard and having a few drinks. Absolutely, 451 00:22:10,373 --> 00:22:13,293 Speaker 2: So I wouldn't personally, and this might be controversial, I'm 452 00:22:13,293 --> 00:22:18,013 Speaker 2: not saying increase the excise tax on off licenses, which 453 00:22:18,053 --> 00:22:20,573 Speaker 2: is opposed to what the police police are saying. I 454 00:22:20,613 --> 00:22:22,813 Speaker 2: would say leave that the same and just lower it 455 00:22:23,293 --> 00:22:28,533 Speaker 2: on on the alcohol that goes into bars and restaurants, 456 00:22:28,973 --> 00:22:33,053 Speaker 2: so the bars and restaurants can employ people, build stuff, 457 00:22:33,293 --> 00:22:35,493 Speaker 2: and you know, you've got these responsible places where people 458 00:22:35,533 --> 00:22:37,653 Speaker 2: are looked after when they're there. So I like a 459 00:22:37,733 --> 00:22:40,493 Speaker 2: balance to move away from it. But yeah, absolutely, I 460 00:22:40,533 --> 00:22:44,093 Speaker 2: totally see what Sam's saying there that you know, if 461 00:22:44,093 --> 00:22:47,093 Speaker 2: you've got young kids, it's you know, it's harder to 462 00:22:47,093 --> 00:22:50,053 Speaker 2: go out, and nothing wrong with them finding people around 463 00:22:50,093 --> 00:22:51,653 Speaker 2: your house. Yeah, but I do agree with you. 464 00:22:51,693 --> 00:22:54,173 Speaker 3: I mean, that price for transport that's already priced in, 465 00:22:54,173 --> 00:22:56,973 Speaker 3: and I suppose my point poorly made was I'd far 466 00:22:57,013 --> 00:22:59,453 Speaker 3: prefer to spend more of that money in the actual 467 00:22:59,493 --> 00:23:03,013 Speaker 3: bars and restaurants. But because I'm already spending seventy dollars 468 00:23:03,013 --> 00:23:05,453 Speaker 3: getting to and from home. That's money I'm not spending 469 00:23:05,493 --> 00:23:07,893 Speaker 3: in the bars. But if it's a lot cheaper to 470 00:23:08,013 --> 00:23:09,893 Speaker 3: buy drinks, than clearly I am going to be spending 471 00:23:09,893 --> 00:23:12,013 Speaker 3: more money in supporting those hospitality venues. 472 00:23:12,173 --> 00:23:14,493 Speaker 2: Well, here we go this Texas guys. He wants more 473 00:23:14,533 --> 00:23:16,773 Speaker 2: people in restaurants and bars right now. Times are tough. 474 00:23:16,813 --> 00:23:19,093 Speaker 2: I pay twenty three dollars for twelve beers which will 475 00:23:19,133 --> 00:23:20,853 Speaker 2: last a week. If I go to a bar, it's 476 00:23:20,893 --> 00:23:23,253 Speaker 2: ten dollars a bottle. Well, you got a cheaper bars 477 00:23:23,253 --> 00:23:26,893 Speaker 2: than Ida, that's his answer there, one hundred and twenty 478 00:23:26,893 --> 00:23:29,133 Speaker 2: three dollars a box. Well, that's what we're saying. We're 479 00:23:29,173 --> 00:23:34,733 Speaker 2: saying that it's it's unfairly weighted towards buying alcohol offline systems, 480 00:23:34,813 --> 00:23:39,253 Speaker 2: off licenses and supermarkets compared to bars and restaurants that 481 00:23:39,333 --> 00:23:40,493 Speaker 2: do more good in the community. 482 00:23:40,733 --> 00:23:43,253 Speaker 3: Exactly, Oh, eight hundred eighty ten eighty is the number 483 00:23:43,253 --> 00:23:44,893 Speaker 3: of coal headlines coming up. 484 00:23:44,933 --> 00:23:47,733 Speaker 2: It's twenty seven to two. 485 00:23:49,373 --> 00:23:52,893 Speaker 15: US talk said the headlines with blue bubble taxis it's 486 00:23:52,933 --> 00:23:55,933 Speaker 15: no trouble with a blue bubble.

Ray Lean. 505 00:25:03,213 --> 00:25:05,773 Speaker 3: So we're talking about the price of alcohol at offline 506 00:25:06,293 --> 00:25:10,573 Speaker 3: versus on licenses off licenses, stores, your supermarkets, on licenses, bars, 507 00:25:10,653 --> 00:25:13,693 Speaker 3: restaurants and cafes, et cetera. There has been a growing 508 00:25:13,733 --> 00:25:18,013 Speaker 3: call for off licensed premises to have an increase in 509 00:25:18,053 --> 00:25:20,853 Speaker 3: the price of alcohol and bars and restaurants take the 510 00:25:20,893 --> 00:25:21,853 Speaker 3: text off completely. 511 00:25:21,893 --> 00:25:24,093 Speaker 2: That is your Yeah. No one else is calling for that, 512 00:25:24,453 --> 00:25:25,373 Speaker 2: only I'm calling for that. 513 00:25:25,533 --> 00:25:25,773 Speaker 7: Yeah. 514 00:25:27,053 --> 00:25:29,493 Speaker 2: Someone says, I agree with Matt, but don't get behind 515 00:25:29,933 --> 00:25:31,813 Speaker 2: a wheel. Absolutely, one hundred percent. Yeah, I mean that 516 00:25:32,173 --> 00:25:34,973 Speaker 2: is Hi, guys, are the damage done? The damage done 517 00:25:35,013 --> 00:25:37,093 Speaker 2: would change as many of those drinking out would be 518 00:25:37,213 --> 00:25:39,693 Speaker 2: tempted to drive home. Thanks Brett. I'm not tempted to 519 00:25:39,773 --> 00:25:42,173 Speaker 2: drive home when I'm drinking out. I think, I mean, 520 00:25:42,173 --> 00:25:44,093 Speaker 2: I think we're getting the message through not to drink drive, 521 00:25:44,133 --> 00:25:49,213 Speaker 2: an't we? I mean, yeah, absolutely slam people that drink 522 00:25:49,293 --> 00:25:53,333 Speaker 2: drive and to get home. Absolutely, ye, absolutely, But I 523 00:25:53,373 --> 00:25:55,812 Speaker 2: think people going out and look, the thing is that 524 00:25:55,853 --> 00:26:00,053 Speaker 2: people aren't always going out to get hammered. People go 525 00:26:00,093 --> 00:26:02,973 Speaker 2: to a restaurant and have a glass of wine. Yeah, right, 526 00:26:03,253 --> 00:26:08,093 Speaker 2: and that should I just don't think that. Eighty four 527 00:26:08,613 --> 00:26:10,653 Speaker 2: My point is eighty four percent of it is drunk 528 00:26:10,733 --> 00:26:14,573 Speaker 2: off off licenses, right, we want people drinking I personally 529 00:26:14,573 --> 00:26:17,173 Speaker 2: want people drinking at bars because it hires people, and 530 00:26:17,933 --> 00:26:20,893 Speaker 2: there's that brings community together. There's a lot of great things, 531 00:26:21,173 --> 00:26:24,813 Speaker 2: and it's a much safer place and nearly all the 532 00:26:24,853 --> 00:26:28,813 Speaker 2: damage from alcohol happens from people drinking at home. This 533 00:26:28,853 --> 00:26:31,733 Speaker 2: person says, if the XIS text was removed to make 534 00:26:31,733 --> 00:26:34,653 Speaker 2: it an equal playing field for off licenses in HOSPO, 535 00:26:35,013 --> 00:26:37,133 Speaker 2: I can only imagine higher profits to be made from 536 00:26:37,133 --> 00:26:39,973 Speaker 2: HOSPO because they'll mark it up. But if there's higher 537 00:26:40,133 --> 00:26:43,213 Speaker 2: profits made by HOSPO, then they invest more, they hire more, 538 00:26:43,333 --> 00:26:46,213 Speaker 2: and that's a good thing. Right now, they're just holding 539 00:26:46,253 --> 00:26:49,013 Speaker 2: on a lot of people complaining about how much alcohol 540 00:26:49,093 --> 00:26:51,493 Speaker 2: is out. That's because it's so expensive to run a 541 00:26:51,573 --> 00:26:56,853 Speaker 2: venue with staff, with rent, security, with the fact that 542 00:26:56,893 --> 00:26:59,093 Speaker 2: you have to be open seven days a week. But 543 00:26:59,133 --> 00:27:01,093 Speaker 2: people are only going out on a Friday and Saturday. 544 00:27:01,133 --> 00:27:03,613 Speaker 3: They've got more regulations. They quite often need to have 545 00:27:03,733 --> 00:27:05,853 Speaker 3: kitchen stuff. I mean, there's a myriad of reasons, but 546 00:27:05,893 --> 00:27:09,093 Speaker 3: those are reasons why it is primarily a safer place 547 00:27:09,133 --> 00:27:09,893 Speaker 3: to drink alcohol. 548 00:27:09,973 --> 00:27:12,813 Speaker 2: Right Yeah, Sam, welcome to the show. This is a 549 00:27:12,813 --> 00:27:16,373 Speaker 2: different Sam, I assume, thank you for having me. It 550 00:27:16,373 --> 00:27:19,333 Speaker 2: sounds like a different, Sam here, how are Yeah, definitely 551 00:27:19,373 --> 00:27:20,973 Speaker 2: your thoughts on that same I'm. 552 00:27:20,853 --> 00:27:25,013 Speaker 16: Quite passionate about the subject actually, and I'd like to 553 00:27:25,053 --> 00:27:27,533 Speaker 16: speak speak how I feel about it. 554 00:27:28,413 --> 00:27:29,453 Speaker 8: I feel like if we. 555 00:27:29,533 --> 00:27:32,133 Speaker 16: Want to reduce the bulham in Auckland, we've got to 556 00:27:32,133 --> 00:27:35,813 Speaker 16: look at where the real risk starts. That's not your 557 00:27:35,813 --> 00:27:39,133 Speaker 16: local bar or like music venue. It is the liquor store. 558 00:27:39,773 --> 00:27:40,293 Speaker 6: Right now, we. 559 00:27:40,853 --> 00:27:42,973 Speaker 16: Walk into a bottle shop and pick up a high 560 00:27:42,973 --> 00:27:45,453 Speaker 16: strength bottle of spirits or a box. 561 00:27:45,253 --> 00:27:48,213 Speaker 8: Of artds, but next to nothing and. 562 00:27:48,133 --> 00:27:51,573 Speaker 16: That drives the culture of drinking, drinking heavily at home 563 00:27:52,413 --> 00:27:55,293 Speaker 16: where there are no limits, no supervision and no support 564 00:27:55,293 --> 00:27:58,853 Speaker 16: if something goes wrong. If you go to a venue, 565 00:27:59,453 --> 00:28:02,253 Speaker 16: it's a completely different story. The security at the door, 566 00:28:02,733 --> 00:28:05,773 Speaker 16: trains bar stuff at the bar, cleaners on site to 567 00:28:05,813 --> 00:28:08,013 Speaker 16: manage the hygiene so you don't need to clean up 568 00:28:08,013 --> 00:28:12,773 Speaker 16: your with you know, often live music and entertainment which 569 00:28:12,773 --> 00:28:16,573 Speaker 16: brings people together in a safe and social environment. I 570 00:28:16,613 --> 00:28:19,733 Speaker 16: mean it's no brainer. WHI should be directing people to 571 00:28:20,453 --> 00:28:24,853 Speaker 16: license venues where they have the safety and security and 572 00:28:25,053 --> 00:28:28,853 Speaker 16: they're built for holding people in a space. 573 00:28:28,693 --> 00:28:29,653 Speaker 8: Where people are drinking. 574 00:28:29,933 --> 00:28:32,373 Speaker 2: Do you think it's unfair? Sam? That when people talk 575 00:28:32,373 --> 00:28:35,893 Speaker 2: about the harm from alcohol, they lump it all in together. 576 00:28:36,253 --> 00:28:39,413 Speaker 2: So eighty four percent, as I keep saying, is brought 577 00:28:39,413 --> 00:28:42,613 Speaker 2: and off licenses, and you know it's sixteen percent bought 578 00:28:42,613 --> 00:28:45,293 Speaker 2: at bars and restaurants, but that is all lumped together, 579 00:28:45,413 --> 00:28:48,853 Speaker 2: is one big thing. And as you say, Sam, one 580 00:28:48,893 --> 00:28:52,253 Speaker 2: part of drinking has a you know, not always but 581 00:28:52,813 --> 00:28:56,493 Speaker 2: has a community side to it and a positive side 582 00:28:56,533 --> 00:28:59,133 Speaker 2: to it, and one side, I mean the other side 583 00:28:59,173 --> 00:29:02,293 Speaker 2: does as well. But it's a very different experience, isn't it. 584 00:29:02,333 --> 00:29:03,893 Speaker 2: So do you think it's fair that they're all lumped 585 00:29:03,893 --> 00:29:06,653 Speaker 2: together in stats and the way we view it? 586 00:29:08,653 --> 00:29:09,053 Speaker 9: Not fair? 587 00:29:09,533 --> 00:29:11,493 Speaker 8: They're too completely different things. 588 00:29:11,733 --> 00:29:11,933 Speaker 6: Ooka. 589 00:29:11,973 --> 00:29:17,133 Speaker 16: I just live in Melbourne over in Australia, Victoria, and 590 00:29:17,613 --> 00:29:21,453 Speaker 16: they have got that alcohol pricing right. They discounted for 591 00:29:21,733 --> 00:29:26,293 Speaker 16: on licenses and off licenses. It's heavily packed and it 592 00:29:26,413 --> 00:29:29,653 Speaker 16: basically puts the weight on the drink. So if you're 593 00:29:29,693 --> 00:29:32,453 Speaker 16: at home, your drinking your hand that you've bought from 594 00:29:32,573 --> 00:29:36,253 Speaker 16: the off license, it's going to cost equivalent to kind 595 00:29:36,333 --> 00:29:38,893 Speaker 16: of what you would pay on an on license. So 596 00:29:39,093 --> 00:29:44,653 Speaker 16: there's no incentive to smash the drinks because they're quite 597 00:29:44,733 --> 00:29:47,173 Speaker 16: expensive to be frank and it's not like in New 598 00:29:47,293 --> 00:29:50,653 Speaker 16: Zealand where it averages to be about three dollars for 599 00:29:50,733 --> 00:29:51,053 Speaker 16: a bear. 600 00:29:51,613 --> 00:29:53,053 Speaker 8: There's no value on it here. 601 00:29:53,133 --> 00:29:56,493 Speaker 16: That's where I think Albin's drinking culture stems from, is 602 00:29:57,933 --> 00:30:00,213 Speaker 16: it's so cheap to drink at home. 603 00:30:00,413 --> 00:30:03,213 Speaker 2: And I wonder if people would you know, there's a 604 00:30:03,213 --> 00:30:06,493 Speaker 2: lot of talk about pre loading from young people before 605 00:30:06,493 --> 00:30:09,773 Speaker 2: they go to bars because alcohol's expense and you know, 606 00:30:09,573 --> 00:30:11,533 Speaker 2: you're definitely not supposed to be in a bar if 607 00:30:11,573 --> 00:30:15,413 Speaker 2: you esteemed there were laws around that. Yes, but preloading 608 00:30:15,453 --> 00:30:18,293 Speaker 2: is a big thing, and that I think preloading is 609 00:30:18,453 --> 00:30:20,733 Speaker 2: primarily a price thing, isn't it Sam. 610 00:30:21,373 --> 00:30:26,253 Speaker 16: It's one hundred you know, like if you say in 611 00:30:26,293 --> 00:30:29,213 Speaker 16: the average drink is around three dollars at home from 612 00:30:29,373 --> 00:30:32,413 Speaker 16: the off license, you know it's equivalent too, but you 613 00:30:32,893 --> 00:30:36,253 Speaker 16: can drink fly for the price of a Volka soda 614 00:30:36,293 --> 00:30:40,333 Speaker 16: in a bar. It's it's nonsensical like to you know, 615 00:30:40,373 --> 00:30:43,053 Speaker 16: if you're if you're a student or you know someone 616 00:30:43,253 --> 00:30:46,973 Speaker 16: a bit younger that doesn't make too much money, of 617 00:30:47,053 --> 00:30:49,493 Speaker 16: course you're in a preload. It's way too expensive to 618 00:30:49,613 --> 00:30:54,173 Speaker 16: drink in a bar, and it drives help in drinking 619 00:30:54,213 --> 00:30:56,893 Speaker 16: culture and It's a shame. It's such a shame. Whereas 620 00:30:56,893 --> 00:31:00,893 Speaker 16: in Melbourne, growing enough, we didn't have that so much 621 00:31:01,453 --> 00:31:02,893 Speaker 16: because how God was expensive. 622 00:31:03,013 --> 00:31:04,493 Speaker 6: So what would we rather do? 623 00:31:04,573 --> 00:31:06,133 Speaker 8: Would rather be at home. 624 00:31:05,933 --> 00:31:11,093 Speaker 16: And a tiny flat and albus drinking in a crowded 625 00:31:11,133 --> 00:31:15,013 Speaker 16: house and then the flats just wrecked afterwards and you 626 00:31:15,053 --> 00:31:17,693 Speaker 16: know they've got to deal with the aftermath. Or do 627 00:31:17,813 --> 00:31:20,573 Speaker 16: we just go to the lovely bar community bar down 628 00:31:20,573 --> 00:31:23,893 Speaker 16: the road where there's a DJ playing. You know, there's 629 00:31:24,213 --> 00:31:26,133 Speaker 16: staff that look after you. 630 00:31:25,453 --> 00:31:29,093 Speaker 2: You might you might meet, you might meet a lovely lady. 631 00:31:29,133 --> 00:31:30,573 Speaker 7: Sam. 632 00:31:30,573 --> 00:31:32,933 Speaker 8: That's it.

But it was 664 00:33:00,293 --> 00:33:03,453 Speaker 2: confusing between some phone calls that came into our show 665 00:33:03,893 --> 00:33:05,173 Speaker 2: and what I actually said. 666 00:33:05,253 --> 00:33:07,533 Speaker 3: Yeah, you defended yourself, well, I thought, but then I've 667 00:33:07,533 --> 00:33:08,253 Speaker 3: done a terrible thing. 668 00:33:08,493 --> 00:33:11,373 Speaker 2: Yeah, because I was just talking about Lee before the break, 669 00:33:11,413 --> 00:33:14,213 Speaker 2: and I assumed Lee was a male, mainly because I 670 00:33:14,333 --> 00:33:16,453 Speaker 2: know a couple of Lees that a male. But still 671 00:33:16,493 --> 00:33:20,133 Speaker 2: I should never assume. So I apologize to Lee. I'm 672 00:33:20,133 --> 00:33:23,013 Speaker 2: a god, I am a female.

No, No, just 677 00:33:33,493 --> 00:33:35,173 Speaker 2: because I know a couple of Lees that are male 678 00:33:35,253 --> 00:33:36,213 Speaker 2: that they're all lizer. 679 00:33:36,813 --> 00:33:39,253 Speaker 3: Yeah, but if you apologize, all sins are forgiven. So, 680 00:33:39,413 --> 00:33:40,493 Speaker 3: and I'm sure Lee doesn't mind. 681 00:33:40,573 --> 00:33:43,613 Speaker 2: So, Lee, thanks for your fantastic text. We appreciate We 682 00:33:43,653 --> 00:33:45,253 Speaker 2: love you. Lee, John, Welcome to the show. 683 00:33:46,653 --> 00:33:47,573 Speaker 17: Goody goes here? 684 00:33:47,653 --> 00:33:48,693 Speaker 2: Are you very good? 685 00:33:50,573 --> 00:33:54,333 Speaker 17: You definitely guaring it to the bars, you know, paying 686 00:33:54,413 --> 00:33:58,533 Speaker 17: three of dollars for a store and lager versus, so 687 00:33:58,613 --> 00:34:01,373 Speaker 17: you pay four of them, it's forty eight dollars and 688 00:34:01,453 --> 00:34:03,933 Speaker 17: you can get a dozen, you know, for the same price. 689 00:34:05,133 --> 00:34:07,773 Speaker 17: It just goes to say, you, you know, oh Joe's 690 00:34:07,813 --> 00:34:10,213 Speaker 17: causing you know, I'll stay at home or drink those. 691 00:34:10,573 --> 00:34:14,212 Speaker 17: But I'm definitely a preloader. I preload and I'll go 692 00:34:14,293 --> 00:34:15,373 Speaker 17: into the bars. 693 00:34:17,693 --> 00:34:20,093 Speaker 2: Fl call was a little bit cheaper than bars, John 694 00:34:20,573 --> 00:34:22,493 Speaker 2: would would you would you go to the bar to 695 00:34:22,533 --> 00:34:23,413 Speaker 2: start off your evening? 696 00:34:26,373 --> 00:34:26,653 Speaker 9: Jeez? 697 00:34:27,013 --> 00:34:28,613 Speaker 17: It's even a tough one. Hell cheaper? 698 00:34:28,613 --> 00:34:29,413 Speaker 7: Would it had to be? 699 00:34:30,053 --> 00:34:30,573 Speaker 2: Ado? 700 00:34:32,213 --> 00:34:32,413 Speaker 7: Well? 701 00:34:32,773 --> 00:34:34,293 Speaker 2: I think, well, I mean it's always going to be 702 00:34:34,293 --> 00:34:36,373 Speaker 2: more expensive a bar because they have to hire people 703 00:34:36,373 --> 00:34:39,253 Speaker 2: to serve, they have to pay their rent, the heating, 704 00:34:39,373 --> 00:34:42,893 Speaker 2: the entertainment, the security, so you're you're always going to 705 00:34:42,893 --> 00:34:44,213 Speaker 2: be it's always going to be more expensive. 706 00:34:45,053 --> 00:34:48,813 Speaker 17: But they already know this. But you know here, you know, 707 00:34:49,253 --> 00:34:53,933 Speaker 17: so you're getting eight beers basically for free, and that 708 00:34:54,213 --> 00:34:58,133 Speaker 17: bar for them to sell them, offered a higher rate. 709 00:34:58,933 --> 00:35:00,853 Speaker 17: What if for the heaving in me? You know, there's 710 00:35:01,013 --> 00:35:02,853 Speaker 17: a lot of bars. You have the pokes in there, 711 00:35:02,973 --> 00:35:05,013 Speaker 17: so they've got all the poking machines to getting a 712 00:35:05,053 --> 00:35:09,093 Speaker 17: big cut head of it. They've got the little these 713 00:35:09,213 --> 00:35:15,133 Speaker 17: don't have dirty perkys dirty perky, you know, and they've 714 00:35:15,133 --> 00:35:17,413 Speaker 17: got a little bit of food on the other side. 715 00:35:17,493 --> 00:35:20,053 Speaker 17: But I see a lot of these bars absolutely packed, 716 00:35:20,093 --> 00:35:23,013 Speaker 17: and then they close them more than I just don't 717 00:35:23,013 --> 00:35:25,293 Speaker 17: know why they closed them. Why are they making a 718 00:35:25,373 --> 00:35:27,853 Speaker 17: killing because I reckon a lot of people pre load 719 00:35:27,893 --> 00:35:29,373 Speaker 17: and they only have a bit, two or three drinks 720 00:35:29,373 --> 00:35:30,293 Speaker 17: when they got. 721 00:35:30,173 --> 00:35:32,013 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you right, John, thanks for you cool. 722 00:35:32,133 --> 00:35:34,053 Speaker 2: Well this Sextus says, oh, sorry, Tyler. 723 00:35:34,173 --> 00:35:35,493 Speaker 3: I'm just got to say on the price, because I 724 00:35:35,573 --> 00:35:37,933 Speaker 3: was trying to work it out. Workingmen's clubs and sports clubs, 725 00:35:37,973 --> 00:35:40,613 Speaker 3: for example, do they pay excised tax on the booths 726 00:35:40,693 --> 00:35:43,733 Speaker 3: they serve And I'm still trying to find out that information, 727 00:35:43,773 --> 00:35:46,732 Speaker 3: but effectively they do, But they're allowed to buy their 728 00:35:46,813 --> 00:35:49,893 Speaker 3: alcohol from the likes of supermarkets and liquor stores, right, 729 00:35:50,253 --> 00:35:52,772 Speaker 3: And because you're a member of that club, then they 730 00:35:52,813 --> 00:35:55,813 Speaker 3: are under different rules, so they pay less tax than 731 00:35:55,853 --> 00:35:59,573 Speaker 3: the likes of your businesses. So that would be for me, 732 00:35:59,733 --> 00:36:01,173 Speaker 3: the price is right because if you go into a 733 00:36:01,173 --> 00:36:04,573 Speaker 3: workingmen's club and get a beer for eight bucks, sometimes 734 00:36:04,613 --> 00:36:07,933 Speaker 3: a jug for ten, that is a more realistic pricing. 735 00:36:08,573 --> 00:36:10,652 Speaker 2: Could do that. Yeah, I would argue a lot more 736 00:36:10,653 --> 00:36:12,973 Speaker 2: people be going to hostpon on supporting Tyler. They don't 737 00:36:13,053 --> 00:36:16,333 Speaker 2: let radio DJs into working men's clubs because what you do, 738 00:36:16,413 --> 00:36:17,893 Speaker 2: I'm sorry to inform you, doesn't really work. 739 00:36:17,933 --> 00:36:20,013 Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, I'm saying in the past because they ripped 740 00:36:20,053 --> 00:36:21,853 Speaker 3: up my membership after what I did last time, and 741 00:36:21,853 --> 00:36:22,773 Speaker 3: I'm really sorry about that. 742 00:36:22,893 --> 00:36:25,573 Speaker 2: Keshmi Club, but yeah, fantastic club. This is such a 743 00:36:25,693 --> 00:36:28,652 Speaker 2: ridiculous idea, says this text. You can't tell me making 744 00:36:28,733 --> 00:36:30,853 Speaker 2: drinks cheaper in town on a Friday and Saturday night 745 00:36:30,933 --> 00:36:33,133 Speaker 2: is going to reduce alcohol harm. It just moves it 746 00:36:33,133 --> 00:36:37,413 Speaker 2: to a different location. Higher tax on off purchases punishes 747 00:36:37,453 --> 00:36:40,093 Speaker 2: everyone who drinks responsibly at home, not just the ones 748 00:36:40,093 --> 00:36:43,053 Speaker 2: that causes harm. The idea that increasing tax lowers problems 749 00:36:43,133 --> 00:36:45,333 Speaker 2: is wrong. Look at the tobacco industry as an example, 750 00:36:45,453 --> 00:36:47,373 Speaker 2: where people are still smoking and now there is a 751 00:36:47,493 --> 00:36:51,013 Speaker 2: huge black market for cigarettes with crime at the high, 752 00:36:51,173 --> 00:36:54,173 Speaker 2: at all time high. Let's just make liquor stores even 753 00:36:54,253 --> 00:36:56,693 Speaker 2: more of a target. Yeah, I mean, I get what 754 00:36:56,733 --> 00:36:59,613 Speaker 2: you're saying. I mean my view of it is that 755 00:36:59,613 --> 00:37:03,693 Speaker 2: that they shouldn't increase the X size on off licenses. 756 00:37:03,973 --> 00:37:07,893 Speaker 2: I think they should just massively decrease it on for 757 00:37:07,973 --> 00:37:10,173 Speaker 2: restaurants and bars. And I think a good way to 758 00:37:10,213 --> 00:37:12,373 Speaker 2: start would be just on kegs because that's an easy 759 00:37:12,373 --> 00:37:14,133 Speaker 2: way to do it. Kick beer because it's only going 760 00:37:14,173 --> 00:37:15,933 Speaker 2: to restaurants on bars, right. 761 00:37:15,933 --> 00:37:19,172 Speaker 3: Yeah, because their analogy under tobacco, right is that if 762 00:37:19,213 --> 00:37:22,813 Speaker 3: there was a bar that you could buy cheaper cigarettes legally, 763 00:37:23,333 --> 00:37:25,333 Speaker 3: then more people would go and buy those cigarettes there. 764 00:37:25,333 --> 00:37:27,213 Speaker 3: So that would be a more appt analogy on what 765 00:37:27,253 --> 00:37:28,933 Speaker 3: that text was trying to say. We're not talking about 766 00:37:28,973 --> 00:37:29,732 Speaker 3: prohibition here. 767 00:37:29,893 --> 00:37:32,413 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm no fan of tax I agree with 768 00:37:32,453 --> 00:37:34,292 Speaker 2: you taxing more. I'm absolutely no fan, but you would 769 00:37:34,333 --> 00:37:36,133 Speaker 2: have to say that people are smoking less than they 770 00:37:36,453 --> 00:37:37,893 Speaker 2: were when I was a kid. Yeah, I mean, I 771 00:37:37,933 --> 00:37:39,093 Speaker 2: was just talking on the show the other day. I 772 00:37:39,093 --> 00:37:41,013 Speaker 2: saw two cars in a row with people smoking in them, 773 00:37:41,053 --> 00:37:43,093 Speaker 2: and I hadn't seen that. I had seen that for 774 00:37:43,093 --> 00:37:45,692 Speaker 2: a very long time. But I also would push back 775 00:37:45,693 --> 00:37:46,133 Speaker 2: on this text. 776 00:37:46,213 --> 00:37:46,373 Speaker 6: Up. 777 00:37:46,973 --> 00:37:49,493 Speaker 2: This is recause you can't tell me drinks are cheaper 778 00:37:49,493 --> 00:37:52,013 Speaker 2: in town, It just moves to a different location. Well, 779 00:37:52,053 --> 00:37:55,213 Speaker 2: the police would disagree, because police argue off license alcohol 780 00:37:55,333 --> 00:37:59,373 Speaker 2: is disproportionately linked to harmful drinking, especially in homes, so 781 00:37:59,413 --> 00:38:01,853 Speaker 2: the police think it's better if people are drinking in 782 00:38:02,213 --> 00:38:03,533 Speaker 2: restaurants and bars than at home. 783 00:38:03,973 --> 00:38:05,693 Speaker 3: Oh e one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the 784 00:38:05,853 --> 00:38:07,893 Speaker 3: number to call. It is eight to two. 785 00:38:09,573 --> 00:38:13,133 Speaker 1: Matt Heath, Tyler Adams taking your calls on eight hundred 786 00:38:13,173 --> 00:38:15,773 Speaker 1: and eighty ten eighty. It's Matt Heath and Tyler Adams 787 00:38:15,813 --> 00:38:17,533 Speaker 1: Afternoons News Dogs. That'd be. 788 00:38:19,093 --> 00:38:19,613 Speaker 2: Afternoon. 789 00:38:19,653 --> 00:38:21,573 Speaker 3: It is five to two and we've had a great 790 00:38:21,573 --> 00:38:25,453 Speaker 3: discussion about the price of alcohol at our hospitality venues 791 00:38:25,573 --> 00:38:27,573 Speaker 3: versus the price of off license You look at store 792 00:38:27,573 --> 00:38:29,053 Speaker 3: of supermarkets. 793 00:38:28,493 --> 00:38:30,613 Speaker 2: Yeah, and look, I think the best way to run 794 00:38:30,733 --> 00:38:32,692 Speaker 2: a good start for this if you want to move 795 00:38:32,813 --> 00:38:37,053 Speaker 2: the drinking from eighty four percent from off licenses more 796 00:38:37,093 --> 00:38:42,573 Speaker 2: towards hospitality, as the police and hospitality groups argue off 797 00:38:42,613 --> 00:38:45,893 Speaker 2: license alcohols disproportionately link to harmful drinking. And I think 798 00:38:45,893 --> 00:38:48,013 Speaker 2: a good place to start is with the keigs because 799 00:38:48,093 --> 00:38:50,893 Speaker 2: kegs go into bars. So if you lower the excise 800 00:38:50,973 --> 00:38:53,973 Speaker 2: tax on kegs, then you will help just that little 801 00:38:54,013 --> 00:38:57,652 Speaker 2: percentage more money that bars can make will keep them 802 00:38:57,693 --> 00:39:00,893 Speaker 2: open and maybe help them open other bars because the 803 00:39:00,973 --> 00:39:03,973 Speaker 2: levers on bars. People complain about how much it costs 804 00:39:03,973 --> 00:39:05,933 Speaker 2: of drink at bars, but it is so expensive to 805 00:39:05,973 --> 00:39:09,172 Speaker 2: run a bar. You've got the rent, you've got security, 806 00:39:09,533 --> 00:39:12,493 Speaker 2: you've got everyone you have to employ in there. It's 807 00:39:12,533 --> 00:39:15,253 Speaker 2: not easy, stressful, veryan ateresty. 808 00:39:15,933 --> 00:39:16,133 Speaker 14: Just go. 809 00:39:16,613 --> 00:39:18,093 Speaker 2: You've just got to look at Ozzie to see how 810 00:39:18,173 --> 00:39:20,692 Speaker 2: much better it is. Bars and pubs are busy there, 811 00:39:20,733 --> 00:39:23,133 Speaker 2: and bears are crazy expensive to buy to take home. 812 00:39:23,173 --> 00:39:25,333 Speaker 2: Make it cheaper in the bars and it will help 813 00:39:25,413 --> 00:39:28,533 Speaker 2: the industry. Very nice, well said text. I agree with you. 814 00:39:28,613 --> 00:39:28,733 Speaker 7: Now. 815 00:39:28,773 --> 00:39:31,813 Speaker 3: We were talking before about this comment from the police 816 00:39:31,853 --> 00:39:32,933 Speaker 3: officer Ian Paulan. 817 00:39:33,493 --> 00:39:35,692 Speaker 2: He is part of the New Zealand. 818 00:39:35,373 --> 00:39:38,693 Speaker 3: Police Alcohol Alcohol Harm Group, and he said, here's the quote, 819 00:39:38,733 --> 00:39:40,732 Speaker 3: and it's a good one. Now, I would say that 820 00:39:40,813 --> 00:39:42,733 Speaker 3: a lot of the harm comes from your pack and saves. 821 00:39:42,733 --> 00:39:45,173 Speaker 3: Whereabouts the pack and saves are in our community is 822 00:39:45,213 --> 00:39:49,773 Speaker 3: a huge amount are from our cheap, shitty standalone bottle stores, 823 00:39:49,773 --> 00:39:53,373 Speaker 3: independently owned, tiny, wee cranky places that are weird. Where 824 00:39:53,373 --> 00:39:55,773 Speaker 3: are they in our communities and our vulnerable community? 825 00:39:55,893 --> 00:39:58,213 Speaker 2: So that was the quote.

I'm just reading the article 1170 00:55:25,413 --> 00:55:26,373 Speaker 2: here and I did hear that. 1171 00:55:26,453 --> 00:55:28,893 Speaker 3: Primarily it's a lot of younger people, which is fantastic 1172 00:55:28,933 --> 00:55:30,493 Speaker 3: for the city, they were her words, and it is 1173 00:55:30,573 --> 00:55:31,692 Speaker 3: fantastic for christ Church. 1174 00:55:32,653 --> 00:55:35,973 Speaker 10: But she she made forty six percent of the number 1175 00:55:36,013 --> 00:55:38,733 Speaker 10: that we're talking about of that educational age. They weren't 1176 00:55:38,733 --> 00:55:41,093 Speaker 10: just maybe there were families brand kids there. 1177 00:55:41,733 --> 00:55:45,253 Speaker 2: Maybe, yeah, Well were just looking at this, looking at 1178 00:55:45,293 --> 00:55:46,853 Speaker 2: these stats here though, there are a lot of young 1179 00:55:46,893 --> 00:55:49,533 Speaker 2: families moving down here, so there are students from the 1180 00:55:49,533 --> 00:55:51,453 Speaker 2: mix back? Does it? 1181 00:55:51,493 --> 00:55:51,533 Speaker 11: So? 1182 00:55:51,613 --> 00:55:54,173 Speaker 10: Really what we're talking about as a number of actual families, 1183 00:55:54,293 --> 00:55:57,533 Speaker 10: income people, working people that are going down there, and 1184 00:55:57,613 --> 00:56:00,493 Speaker 10: maybe half that number because the rest of them are 1185 00:56:00,533 --> 00:56:01,093 Speaker 10: their children. 1186 00:56:01,533 --> 00:56:03,853 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you and what's your point, what's your point? 1187 00:56:04,133 --> 00:56:07,413 Speaker 10: There's a relativity, Well, there's a relativity about that. As 1188 00:56:07,453 --> 00:56:09,373 Speaker 10: the numbers when you talk and your listeners are looking, 1189 00:56:09,773 --> 00:56:12,172 Speaker 10: fifty thousand orphantors have gone down there, or really about 1190 00:56:12,213 --> 00:56:14,652 Speaker 10: twenty five thousand families possibly have moved down there. The 1191 00:56:14,693 --> 00:56:17,453 Speaker 10: rest of them will be either students that are flatting 1192 00:56:17,933 --> 00:56:19,973 Speaker 10: or they've gone down with family, So the number is 1193 00:56:19,973 --> 00:56:24,093 Speaker 10: actually less than an actual main cores of income people 1194 00:56:24,173 --> 00:56:25,893 Speaker 10: homeowners that are going down there. 1195 00:56:26,333 --> 00:56:30,093 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, I mean, I mean it's still an interesting figure. 1196 00:56:30,133 --> 00:56:32,093 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, I'll get your point, Peter, But from 1197 00:56:32,093 --> 00:56:33,613 Speaker 3: a stat's point of view, then you'd look at the 1198 00:56:33,653 --> 00:56:36,653 Speaker 3: population of Auckland and say, well, you know, there's only 1199 00:56:37,413 --> 00:56:40,533 Speaker 3: seven hundred and fifty thousand adults here because you remove 1200 00:56:40,573 --> 00:56:42,172 Speaker 3: the kids side of things. But I get what you're saying. 1201 00:56:42,213 --> 00:56:44,013 Speaker 3: You know, there's a lot of younger people moving down there. 1202 00:56:44,053 --> 00:56:47,253 Speaker 3: But that is strange in itself, right, is young people 1203 00:56:47,253 --> 00:56:49,813 Speaker 3: primarily would have looked at christ Church and say it's boring, 1204 00:56:49,893 --> 00:56:51,652 Speaker 3: there's no nightlife. What am I going to do as 1205 00:56:51,653 --> 00:56:52,533 Speaker 3: a twenty year old? 1206 00:56:52,693 --> 00:56:55,493 Speaker 2: What's the population of christ Church?

It was 1248 00:59:00,853 --> 00:59:04,933 Speaker 3: on Mike Costkin Show and other a. Kiri mentioned it 1249 00:59:05,013 --> 00:59:07,213 Speaker 3: as well, and we're getting right into it. It's called 1250 00:59:07,293 --> 00:59:11,613 Speaker 3: moving Southwolrth Islanders are upping sticks and droves and leaving 1251 00:59:11,653 --> 00:59:13,133 Speaker 3: the North Island to the South Islands. 1252 00:59:13,213 --> 00:59:15,053 Speaker 2: And Peter rang before and said it's not really a 1253 00:59:15,293 --> 00:59:17,693 Speaker 2: subject at all, and it's not actually happening, and statistics 1254 00:59:17,733 --> 00:59:22,213 Speaker 2: are confusing. It can be funny and you know, when 1255 00:59:22,213 --> 00:59:23,573 Speaker 2: you look at when you drill down it to it, 1256 00:59:23,613 --> 00:59:26,093 Speaker 2: there are interesting but you've got to say that christ Church. 1257 00:59:26,133 --> 00:59:28,413 Speaker 2: So I'm just looking at the population growth in christ Church. 1258 00:59:28,653 --> 00:59:31,853 Speaker 2: And so obviously there was something that happened in two 1259 00:59:31,893 --> 00:59:38,053 Speaker 2: thousand and eleven yep anda, but that the population from 1260 00:59:38,133 --> 00:59:41,173 Speaker 2: twenty twelve it was three hundred and seventy eight thousand. 1261 00:59:41,293 --> 00:59:44,573 Speaker 2: It's now four hundred and ten thousand. So the population 1262 00:59:44,613 --> 00:59:46,613 Speaker 2: of christ Church has gone up quite considerably. There's some 1263 00:59:46,693 --> 00:59:49,493 Speaker 2: people moving there. And look, just looking at the text machine, 1264 00:59:49,493 --> 00:59:51,773 Speaker 2: we're getting dozens and dozens and dozens of texts from 1265 00:59:51,773 --> 00:59:54,453 Speaker 2: people that are saying they've moved from Auckland to christ Church. 1266 00:59:54,573 --> 00:59:58,253 Speaker 2: So whilst Peter points out it might not be quite 1267 00:59:58,293 --> 01:00:00,653 Speaker 2: as big a thing as it's been in this article, 1268 01:00:01,133 --> 01:00:02,333 Speaker 2: it's definitely still. 1269 01:00:02,173 --> 01:00:04,973 Speaker 3: A thing, absolutely, But fifty thousand people are still fifty 1270 01:00:05,013 --> 01:00:07,093 Speaker 3: thousand people. Does it really matter if that includes children? 1271 01:00:07,413 --> 01:00:11,653 Speaker 3: I mean that's still fifty kids. Are people too, Peter. 1272 01:00:12,333 --> 01:00:14,973 Speaker 2: Boys, I know of twenty four Auklanders coming to christ 1273 01:00:15,053 --> 01:00:16,853 Speaker 2: Church for a piece of property. 1274 01:00:17,013 --> 01:00:19,173 Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, well that will be a big thing 1275 01:00:19,213 --> 01:00:20,933 Speaker 3: for a lot of people. Is the price is riting 1276 01:00:21,013 --> 01:00:22,973 Speaker 3: christ Church? When you look at housing, you can get 1277 01:00:23,013 --> 01:00:27,413 Speaker 3: a far cheaper home comparable to what you pay up 1278 01:00:27,453 --> 01:00:30,013 Speaker 3: here in Auckland, and that I think for young families 1279 01:00:30,093 --> 01:00:31,173 Speaker 3: is a big part of it, if they can get 1280 01:00:31,173 --> 01:00:31,933 Speaker 3: a good job to boot. 1281 01:00:32,173 --> 01:00:35,413 Speaker 2: I believe I'm listening to your channel. That's an interesting 1282 01:00:35,453 --> 01:00:38,653 Speaker 2: way to start a text. We believe you're listening to 1283 01:00:38,813 --> 01:00:39,493 Speaker 2: We believe in you. 1284 01:00:39,653 --> 01:00:39,893 Speaker 6: Texter. 1285 01:00:40,133 --> 01:00:42,973 Speaker 2: I don't believe you're listening. I just think it's a 1286 01:00:43,013 --> 01:00:45,413 Speaker 2: huge coincidence that your text is on the right topic. 1287 01:00:45,893 --> 01:00:48,253 Speaker 2: I believe I'm listening to your channel. I am a 1288 01:00:48,333 --> 01:00:50,293 Speaker 2: union student from Wellington and I know that two years 1289 01:00:50,293 --> 01:00:52,333 Speaker 2: ago when packing what you need to go to christ 1290 01:00:52,413 --> 01:00:54,333 Speaker 2: Church was that you need to go to everyone wanted 1291 01:00:54,373 --> 01:00:56,573 Speaker 2: to go there. Most people wanted to leave home and 1292 01:00:56,653 --> 01:00:59,653 Speaker 2: be independent. Also there my school had a lot of 1293 01:00:59,733 --> 01:01:02,533 Speaker 2: engineering students in christ Church as where you go for engineering. 1294 01:01:02,653 --> 01:01:05,653 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I mean I definitely, but I definitely have 1295 01:01:05,813 --> 01:01:09,653 Speaker 2: seen a change in christ Church become a glamor destination 1296 01:01:09,853 --> 01:01:12,093 Speaker 2: of the students to go to. It used to be 1297 01:01:12,133 --> 01:01:15,533 Speaker 2: and also used to go there because you just thought 1298 01:01:16,333 --> 01:01:18,533 Speaker 2: that because because the course you wanted to do there, 1299 01:01:18,653 --> 01:01:21,173 Speaker 2: you can get in there or whatever. Yeah, but now people. 1300 01:01:21,493 --> 01:01:24,373 Speaker 2: It's the destination people want to go to for university. Absolutely. 1301 01:01:24,373 --> 01:01:26,013 Speaker 3: Oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number 1302 01:01:26,013 --> 01:01:28,173 Speaker 3: to call if you've made the move from north to south. 1303 01:01:28,493 --> 01:01:30,533 Speaker 2: Can you hear from you, Josh?

And I was listening 1310 01:01:49,453 --> 01:01:50,933 Speaker 20: to your last caller. He said that he moved to 1311 01:01:51,133 --> 01:01:53,533 Speaker 20: or he lives in Pegatus.

Everyone seems to know each other. So it's 1320 01:02:16,973 --> 01:02:19,373 Speaker 20: a completely different vibe to where we used to live 1321 01:02:19,493 --> 01:02:20,013 Speaker 20: from memory. 1322 01:02:20,053 --> 01:02:21,733 Speaker 3: And I might get this wrong, but when the development 1323 01:02:21,853 --> 01:02:26,973 Speaker 3: was first floated, I believe it was approximately five hundred homes, 1324 01:02:27,013 --> 01:02:29,413 Speaker 3: so it's probably around sort of five thousand, six thousand. 1325 01:02:29,453 --> 01:02:30,973 Speaker 2: That looks because it's just looking at it now. It 1326 01:02:31,053 --> 01:02:33,213 Speaker 2: was as four thousand, one hundred and seventy in June 1327 01:02:33,453 --> 01:02:37,213 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four. But they're looking the population is expected 1328 01:02:37,293 --> 01:02:41,413 Speaker 2: to balloon to six thousand people in the next few years. 1329 01:02:42,053 --> 01:02:44,293 Speaker 2: So here's a text that I want to read out 1330 01:02:44,373 --> 01:02:48,213 Speaker 2: to you if you don't mind there. Josh, guys just 1331 01:02:48,293 --> 01:02:52,493 Speaker 2: looked at Pegasus and it's a controlled living space, rules, unregulated, 1332 01:02:52,893 --> 01:02:56,533 Speaker 2: undrigister's cars, lawn lengths not for me, Craig, is that true? 1333 01:02:56,693 --> 01:02:57,573 Speaker 6: What the stesus is? 1334 01:02:58,893 --> 01:02:59,373 Speaker 7: I don't see. 1335 01:02:59,373 --> 01:03:01,813 Speaker 20: That was part of the reason that druety you can't 1336 01:03:01,853 --> 01:03:04,693 Speaker 20: have pitballs, you can't have well. But the reality of that, 1337 01:03:04,893 --> 01:03:07,413 Speaker 20: the reality of that is that they don't that is 1338 01:03:07,493 --> 01:03:10,693 Speaker 20: what it used to be. Apparently they don't actually enforce 1339 01:03:10,733 --> 01:03:12,213 Speaker 20: any of that. So yeah, you have to have like 1340 01:03:12,293 --> 01:03:13,973 Speaker 20: your grass cut to a certain lengths and. 1341 01:03:15,453 --> 01:03:17,293 Speaker 3: On certain days that was it was a big thing 1342 01:03:17,333 --> 01:03:20,813 Speaker 3: with the covenants with the previous developer was very. 1343 01:03:20,733 --> 01:03:23,973 Speaker 20: Controversial and coming from Hamilton, that kind of appealed to 1344 01:03:24,093 --> 01:03:25,693 Speaker 20: us because we were like, well, you know, we lived 1345 01:03:25,733 --> 01:03:27,333 Speaker 20: next to a place that used to breed footballs and 1346 01:03:27,413 --> 01:03:29,773 Speaker 20: that you know, couldn't walk out ficture school, so it 1347 01:03:29,893 --> 01:03:31,893 Speaker 20: kind of appeals. But yeah, the reality is that that's 1348 01:03:32,373 --> 01:03:35,853 Speaker 20: that it's not true, Like I mean, it's written on paper, 1349 01:03:35,933 --> 01:03:38,773 Speaker 20: but it's not enforced. So we've we've been plenty of 1350 01:03:39,093 --> 01:03:43,213 Speaker 20: of you know, places that are living outside of those covenants. 1351 01:03:44,013 --> 01:03:46,693 Speaker 20: But it's perfinitely fine and kind of. 1352 01:03:49,453 --> 01:03:51,773 Speaker 2: What's the community vibe? Do you get to know your neighbors? 1353 01:03:51,933 --> 01:03:53,093 Speaker 2: Is there that element to it? 1354 01:03:53,253 --> 01:03:57,133 Speaker 20: Pegasus, Oh, it's crazy, so that the first day we 1355 01:03:57,213 --> 01:03:59,053 Speaker 20: were down here, it was like, I don't know, and 1356 01:03:59,453 --> 01:04:01,133 Speaker 20: I guess this doesn't appeal to a lot of people, 1357 01:04:01,173 --> 01:04:03,013 Speaker 20: but being a young family, it was perfect for us. 1358 01:04:03,293 --> 01:04:06,053 Speaker 20: It was like, you know where you watch American movies 1359 01:04:06,093 --> 01:04:08,453 Speaker 20: and they live in suburbia. You moved to Mayport. All 1360 01:04:08,493 --> 01:04:10,693 Speaker 20: the neighbors come out and knocking your door and produce themselves. 1361 01:04:10,893 --> 01:04:14,213 Speaker 20: Everyone did that of course, like everyone come over.

No, definitely not. 1639 01:17:28,372 --> 01:17:29,532 Speaker 23: But I do love the mountains. 1640 01:17:29,572 --> 01:17:30,732 Speaker 6: But you know, we left Auckland. 1641 01:17:30,933 --> 01:17:33,013 Speaker 23: I was spending an hour and a half each way 1642 01:17:33,053 --> 01:17:36,892 Speaker 23: to work every day, so fifteen hours a week traveling, muteing, 1643 01:17:37,612 --> 01:17:38,532 Speaker 23: and it was killing us. 1644 01:17:38,853 --> 01:17:41,772 Speaker 2: If you don't mind me asking was if you did 1645 01:17:41,812 --> 01:17:45,093 Speaker 2: you sell up your property in Auckland, and if so, 1646 01:17:45,492 --> 01:17:48,412 Speaker 2: was it a comp comparatible purchase down in Queenstown. 1647 01:17:49,532 --> 01:17:52,293 Speaker 23: Yeah, we did sell a relatively expensive property in Auckland. 1648 01:17:52,333 --> 01:17:54,012 Speaker 23: We saved a bit of money going to a smaller 1649 01:17:54,013 --> 01:17:55,013 Speaker 23: property in Queenstown. 1650 01:17:55,692 --> 01:17:57,532 Speaker 8: But we still spend quite a. 1651 01:17:57,532 --> 01:18:00,053 Speaker 23: Bit of time in Auckland anyway for work, so we're 1652 01:18:00,093 --> 01:18:01,572 Speaker 23: back and forth a lot. We kind of have the 1653 01:18:01,652 --> 01:18:04,852 Speaker 23: best of both worlds because we don't have to, you know, deal. 1654 01:18:04,732 --> 01:18:06,213 Speaker 8: With living in Auckland. 1655 01:18:06,253 --> 01:18:08,253 Speaker 23: Pain rates in Auckland, but we get to live in 1656 01:18:08,412 --> 01:18:09,372 Speaker 23: Queenstown permanently. 1657 01:18:09,452 --> 01:18:12,253 Speaker 3: So that's great, fantastic and why we've only got about 1658 01:18:12,253 --> 01:18:15,132 Speaker 3: forty seconds. But why Queenstown over say the likes of christ. 1659 01:18:15,013 --> 01:18:19,372 Speaker 23: Juche don't know, really, I mean, I do like it 1660 01:18:19,412 --> 01:18:22,652 Speaker 23: because it's a smaller place, and yet people complain about 1661 01:18:22,652 --> 01:18:24,492 Speaker 23: the traffic, But the reality is a lot of the 1662 01:18:24,572 --> 01:18:27,732 Speaker 23: time that traffic from Franktin. You know, from the airport 1663 01:18:27,772 --> 01:18:30,972 Speaker 23: through to Franklin it's about a four minute delay. Yeah, 1664 01:18:31,333 --> 01:18:33,452 Speaker 23: it doesn't seem like you should have any delay in Queenstown, 1665 01:18:33,492 --> 01:18:35,173 Speaker 23: but the reality is there are a lot of people, 1666 01:18:35,213 --> 01:18:37,293 Speaker 23: there's a lot of tourists, and you just have to. 1667 01:18:37,333 --> 01:18:37,812 Speaker 6: Get on with it. 1668 01:18:38,173 --> 01:18:40,612 Speaker 2: Excited about that you started about the gondola.

Obviously, had his struggles with 1699 01:20:21,133 --> 01:20:23,333 Speaker 2: mental illness and he became a recluse for a while, 1700 01:20:23,372 --> 01:20:25,732 Speaker 2: and he was, you know this, he was sort of 1701 01:20:26,213 --> 01:20:28,452 Speaker 2: used by anyway, Let's not get into that he was. 1702 01:20:28,572 --> 01:20:30,293 Speaker 2: He was sort of locked up and used and abused, 1703 01:20:30,333 --> 01:20:34,452 Speaker 2: and he passed away at eighty two. But one of 1704 01:20:34,492 --> 01:20:39,772 Speaker 2: the great musical geniuses of you know, the last hundred years. 1705 01:20:40,093 --> 01:20:41,412 Speaker 2: Innovative as well, wasn't it. 1706 01:20:41,532 --> 01:20:44,852 Speaker 3: I mean he was arguably and you know a lot 1707 01:20:44,853 --> 01:20:46,772 Speaker 3: more about Bob Brian Wilson than I do, but but 1708 01:20:47,013 --> 01:20:50,333 Speaker 3: dogged in his vision with how we saw a particular 1709 01:20:50,532 --> 01:20:54,572 Speaker 3: song shaping up right. Good vibrations isrationally. 1710 01:20:53,652 --> 01:20:56,612 Speaker 2: Used, absolutely so The Beach Boys is an interesting thing 1711 01:20:56,692 --> 01:21:00,412 Speaker 2: because you know, the family harmonies were fantastic, but that 1712 01:21:00,492 --> 01:21:02,812 Speaker 2: Beach Boy's image. They weren't really Beach Boys. That was 1713 01:21:02,973 --> 01:21:05,213 Speaker 2: just a name that was given to them to try 1714 01:21:05,293 --> 01:21:07,893 Speaker 2: and sell records. And in the background you had a 1715 01:21:08,492 --> 01:21:11,492 Speaker 2: Wilson who was just a genius writing writing the songs 1716 01:21:11,532 --> 01:21:14,892 Speaker 2: and Pet Sounds, Oh my god, what a fantastic album 1717 01:21:14,973 --> 01:21:17,293 Speaker 2: Pet Sounds is, And that was just he wasn't on 1718 01:21:17,412 --> 01:21:19,572 Speaker 2: tour anymore, he wasn't really in the band. He was 1719 01:21:19,732 --> 01:21:23,093 Speaker 2: just running it from from behind the scenes and kind 1720 01:21:23,133 --> 01:21:27,213 Speaker 2: of working like a composer, like a classical composer. But 1721 01:21:27,412 --> 01:21:30,612 Speaker 2: that Pet Sounds album is just phenomenal. That the way 1722 01:21:30,652 --> 01:21:35,012 Speaker 2: it sounds, the attention to detail, it's just great song 1723 01:21:35,093 --> 01:21:37,492 Speaker 2: after great song. Wouldn't be nice, that's not me. I'm 1724 01:21:37,532 --> 01:21:40,053 Speaker 2: waiting for the day Sloop John B obviously a cover 1725 01:21:40,412 --> 01:21:42,732 Speaker 2: you still believe in me, don't talk, Let's go away 1726 01:21:43,492 --> 01:21:45,772 Speaker 2: for a while. God only knows. It's just such a 1727 01:21:45,853 --> 01:21:50,652 Speaker 2: fantastic album. So he's definitely in the conversation as one 1728 01:21:50,692 --> 01:21:54,372 Speaker 2: of the geniuses of music. But what do you think 1729 01:21:54,732 --> 01:21:59,333 Speaker 2: hundred eighty ten eighty who is the absolute musical genius 1730 01:21:59,732 --> 01:22:03,813 Speaker 2: and are we going to include yeah, yeah, yeah, Ludwigs, 1731 01:22:04,532 --> 01:22:07,213 Speaker 2: Oh you have to, I have to, yeah, yeah, bathe 1732 01:22:07,213 --> 01:22:11,013 Speaker 2: Ovens in there, the booties.

I 1744 01:22:36,692 --> 01:22:39,253 Speaker 2: don't know. No, Look, I want to look sure. If 1745 01:22:39,293 --> 01:22:41,293 Speaker 2: you want to go full classical on it, be my 1746 01:22:41,372 --> 01:22:45,093 Speaker 2: guest on eight hundred eighty ten eighty. But when you're 1747 01:22:45,093 --> 01:22:47,013 Speaker 2: talking about Brian Wilson, I think it has to be 1748 01:22:47,452 --> 01:22:49,732 Speaker 2: from that sixties era forward. 1749 01:22:49,973 --> 01:22:50,133 Speaker 13: Right. 1750 01:22:50,372 --> 01:22:55,372 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're not bloody taking it all the back to Traikowski, 1751 01:22:55,732 --> 01:23:00,053 Speaker 2: aren't we? Do we really want to bring Chopin into it? No, 1752 01:23:00,372 --> 01:23:02,253 Speaker 2: not Chopart, No chopping. 1753 01:23:02,492 --> 01:23:05,612 Speaker 3: Nah, they can stay out of the nowhere near bait Oven, 1754 01:23:05,652 --> 01:23:07,772 Speaker 3: nowhere near bait Oven. But I we one hundred and 1755 01:23:07,812 --> 01:23:10,492 Speaker 3: eighty ten, I'm going to say one slightly before the 1756 01:23:10,572 --> 01:23:12,772 Speaker 3: Beach Boys, but I certainly think he's in the mix. 1757 01:23:12,973 --> 01:23:15,253 Speaker 3: Ray Charles, and I know that will be controversial, but 1758 01:23:15,372 --> 01:23:19,772 Speaker 3: an incredible musician, incredible brain, and a genius when it 1759 01:23:19,893 --> 01:23:23,532 Speaker 3: came to the music side of things. But he had 1760 01:23:23,532 --> 01:23:25,173 Speaker 3: a lot of help behind the scenes, right that there 1761 01:23:25,213 --> 01:23:28,213 Speaker 3: were a lot of people helping Ray Charles write those songs. 1762 01:23:28,772 --> 01:23:31,093 Speaker 2: And hell of a performer, hell of a performer. It's 1763 01:23:31,093 --> 01:23:33,173 Speaker 2: interesting because a lot of people are texting Michael Jackson through, 1764 01:23:33,253 --> 01:23:35,852 Speaker 2: but they also Quincy Jones, and I would say there's 1765 01:23:35,893 --> 01:23:39,772 Speaker 2: no Michael Jackson without Quincy Jones. Yeah, because often the 1766 01:23:39,853 --> 01:23:42,812 Speaker 2: Michael Jackson he would just be humming a bassline and 1767 01:23:42,812 --> 01:23:44,892 Speaker 2: then Quincy Jones would have to work out how it's 1768 01:23:44,893 --> 01:23:45,452 Speaker 2: going to be played. 1769 01:23:45,532 --> 01:23:45,692 Speaker 19: Yea. 1770 01:23:45,973 --> 01:23:51,092 Speaker 2: So he wrote Billy Jean just by coming down stairs 1771 01:23:51,133 --> 01:23:54,093 Speaker 2: to the studio Michael Jackson and going boom doom doom, doom, doom, doom, 1772 01:23:54,173 --> 01:23:56,612 Speaker 2: doom doom doom in Quincy. Yeah, that does sound like 1773 01:23:56,612 --> 01:23:58,612 Speaker 2: a good bassline. We'll make that song. But also, you 1774 01:23:58,692 --> 01:24:00,852 Speaker 2: can be a genius performance because I'd say performer because 1775 01:24:00,893 --> 01:24:04,092 Speaker 2: Elvis didn't write his songs, but he was absolute genius 1776 01:24:04,412 --> 01:24:06,732 Speaker 2: and the way he presented those songs, and the way 1777 01:24:06,772 --> 01:24:10,652 Speaker 2: he organized his live shows and the organized his performance. 1778 01:24:10,213 --> 01:24:12,933 Speaker 3: A sex appeal, which was controversial at the time. All right, 1779 01:24:13,013 --> 01:24:14,732 Speaker 3: let's get into it. The phones have led up old 1780 01:24:14,732 --> 01:24:18,452 Speaker 3: eight hundred eighty ten eighty Who is the biggest musical 1781 01:24:18,532 --> 01:24:19,692 Speaker 3: genius of all time? 1782 01:24:20,013 --> 01:24:21,732 Speaker 2: Love to hear from you?

Yeah, different tuning 1812 01:25:41,572 --> 01:25:43,732 Speaker 18: on guitars that we've never heard of. 1813 01:25:43,772 --> 01:25:45,813 Speaker 2: And never seen some Yeah, fantastic. 1814 01:25:46,372 --> 01:25:46,612 Speaker 7: I love. 1815 01:25:46,652 --> 01:25:49,172 Speaker 2: One of the greatest stories ever was when Sergeant Peppers 1816 01:25:49,572 --> 01:25:52,293 Speaker 2: came out and that night Jimmy Hendrix was playing and 1817 01:25:52,333 --> 01:25:54,652 Speaker 2: he immediately had the cover of Sergeant Peppers and the 1818 01:25:54,692 --> 01:25:56,412 Speaker 2: Beatles went along and just heard it and went, wow, 1819 01:25:56,452 --> 01:25:59,972 Speaker 2: that's a very cool version. Just instantly he was there 1820 01:26:00,013 --> 01:26:03,173 Speaker 2: to cover. How you mentioned Stevie Wonder as well, that. 1821 01:26:04,333 --> 01:26:09,253 Speaker 18: Stevie Wonder what a genius old videos. Yeah, he must 1822 01:26:09,333 --> 01:26:15,173 Speaker 18: be about nineteen to twenty years old. Guy's blind, Yeah, 1823 01:26:15,853 --> 01:26:21,532 Speaker 18: but he can play the keyboard. The saxophone, the harmonica, sing. Yeah, 1824 01:26:23,333 --> 01:26:27,372 Speaker 18: I mean, and the guy's been round and relevant since 1825 01:26:27,412 --> 01:26:28,012 Speaker 18: he first. 1826 01:26:27,853 --> 01:26:29,612 Speaker 2: Came on the same Can you imagine coming up with 1827 01:26:29,652 --> 01:26:35,212 Speaker 2: a riff as cool as superstition? Just exactly just imagine 1828 01:26:35,253 --> 01:26:36,572 Speaker 2: if you just did you come up with that riff 1829 01:26:36,612 --> 01:26:38,812 Speaker 2: and then when the drums first come in with that, 1830 01:26:38,893 --> 01:26:41,012 Speaker 2: it's just so incredibly funky. 1831 01:26:42,173 --> 01:26:44,333 Speaker 18: And then you hear a lot of his tunes and 1832 01:26:44,532 --> 01:26:47,572 Speaker 18: influences and the likes of and we know that Chilli 1833 01:26:47,612 --> 01:26:49,133 Speaker 18: Peppers have done covers of his song. 1834 01:26:49,412 --> 01:26:50,852 Speaker 6: Yeah, but there's a. 1835 01:26:50,812 --> 01:26:53,253 Speaker 18: Little bits of Stevie Wonder out there and lots of 1836 01:26:53,293 --> 01:26:54,333 Speaker 18: different types of music. 1837 01:26:54,692 --> 01:26:58,452 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, he was. He was no doubt, absolute genius. 1838 01:26:58,532 --> 01:27:11,173 Speaker 2: Think if you call any oh yeah, just liten is 1839 01:27:11,253 --> 01:27:14,253 Speaker 2: so good, isn't it? Imagine be able to sing and 1840 01:27:14,372 --> 01:27:17,612 Speaker 2: play that complicated riff at the same time like he can. Toby, 1841 01:27:17,732 --> 01:27:18,733 Speaker 2: your genius. 1842 01:27:18,452 --> 01:27:20,133 Speaker 4: Is did I guys? 1843 01:27:20,213 --> 01:27:21,293 Speaker 2: How are we very good? 1844 01:27:22,492 --> 01:27:22,932 Speaker 7: That's good? 1845 01:27:23,013 --> 01:27:26,732 Speaker 4: That's good my genius. I think as a Kelly at 1846 01:27:26,772 --> 01:27:29,452 Speaker 4: the moment, like you look beyond the point that he 1847 01:27:29,492 --> 01:27:31,532 Speaker 4: person on a couple of people, He's got some bloody 1848 01:27:31,572 --> 01:27:34,013 Speaker 4: god bang. It's like I believe I can fly as 1849 01:27:34,093 --> 01:27:37,692 Speaker 4: one of my favorite ones, The World's Greatest absolute chunk. 1850 01:27:38,293 --> 01:27:41,093 Speaker 2: I find I struggle to get past the that that 1851 01:27:41,213 --> 01:27:44,133 Speaker 2: little thing about R Kelly. Yeah, I just struggle to 1852 01:27:44,572 --> 01:27:47,133 Speaker 2: just get past that. But you know, I believe I 1853 01:27:47,173 --> 01:27:50,053 Speaker 2: can fly before we knew what he was up to. Sorry, Yes, 1854 01:27:50,053 --> 01:27:53,412 Speaker 2: it's good. So and and Toby raises a very interesting question, 1855 01:27:53,492 --> 01:27:55,812 Speaker 2: doesn't he can you know, can you get past the 1856 01:27:56,013 --> 01:27:59,852 Speaker 2: the the does it matter? Can you get part the 1857 01:27:59,933 --> 01:28:02,572 Speaker 2: artist from a piece of art stand on its own? 1858 01:28:02,933 --> 01:28:03,173 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1859 01:28:03,732 --> 01:28:06,812 Speaker 2: Or is it always tied to the behavior of the person. 1860 01:28:06,853 --> 01:28:08,492 Speaker 2: And I think that's what Toby was trying to get 1861 01:28:08,492 --> 01:28:10,213 Speaker 2: across when he rang up to say that. I think 1862 01:28:10,253 --> 01:28:12,093 Speaker 2: he was too. Yeah, and that song was a big 1863 01:28:12,133 --> 01:28:14,053 Speaker 2: part of Toby was ringing up to share the deeper 1864 01:28:14,093 --> 01:28:20,133 Speaker 2: philosophical nature of R. Kelly's art versus his terrible, terrible 1865 01:28:20,772 --> 01:28:22,092 Speaker 2: evil behavior crimes. 1866 01:28:22,173 --> 01:28:24,053 Speaker 3: Yeah, but that song was a big part of Space Jam, 1867 01:28:24,093 --> 01:28:26,532 Speaker 3: which was a great movie. Michael Jordan fantastic. 1868 01:28:26,612 --> 01:28:29,372 Speaker 2: Jealous, Welcome to the show, Hi go. 1869 01:28:30,173 --> 01:28:35,212 Speaker 19: I think long Longe ever is a big factor in greatness. 1870 01:28:35,293 --> 01:28:39,372 Speaker 19: You know, It's like a tennis player. Yep, they keep winning, 1871 01:28:40,412 --> 01:28:43,093 Speaker 19: keep playing at a high level for a long time. 1872 01:28:43,213 --> 01:28:44,933 Speaker 19: I think that makes him one of the great And 1873 01:28:46,173 --> 01:28:49,732 Speaker 19: so when you apply that to music, I've got five 1874 01:28:49,973 --> 01:28:53,293 Speaker 19: on the top tier, and then you've got lower tiers 1875 01:28:53,293 --> 01:28:57,213 Speaker 19: as well. But my top five Brian Wilson, Bob Dylan, 1876 01:28:57,532 --> 01:29:01,412 Speaker 19: Stevie Wonder, the Beatles, and Bert backerac. 1877 01:29:01,133 --> 01:29:05,892 Speaker 2: Oh, Burt Becker absolutely yeah, yeah, I mean Burt Becker, 1878 01:29:06,253 --> 01:29:08,133 Speaker 2: you know, writing for songs for so many different people, 1879 01:29:08,173 --> 01:29:11,452 Speaker 2: but so so clear it's a Bert Backerack song. Just 1880 01:29:11,532 --> 01:29:14,852 Speaker 2: an absolute genius. Yeah. I mean, I mean, because you 1881 01:29:14,853 --> 01:29:16,253 Speaker 2: can have people that come along and they have one 1882 01:29:16,333 --> 01:29:18,572 Speaker 2: good album. They're their first album, they build up to 1883 01:29:18,652 --> 01:29:20,213 Speaker 2: it for a few years and they released an album 1884 01:29:20,253 --> 01:29:23,093 Speaker 2: it's great, but the second, the third album songs over 1885 01:29:23,133 --> 01:29:25,133 Speaker 2: a long period of time. That's absolutely when, you know. 1886 01:29:25,492 --> 01:29:27,492 Speaker 2: And that's why I questioned where the kirk Obains are 1887 01:29:27,532 --> 01:29:30,973 Speaker 2: genius because he had one really good album. I mean, 1888 01:29:31,013 --> 01:29:32,972 Speaker 2: I like that. I liked Bleach. They had one really 1889 01:29:33,013 --> 01:29:34,852 Speaker 2: good album and then he had the next one and 1890 01:29:34,893 --> 01:29:37,933 Speaker 2: then he was gone. But it was his quality was 1891 01:29:37,933 --> 01:29:39,532 Speaker 2: falling off a cliff aft to never mind if you 1892 01:29:39,572 --> 01:29:42,932 Speaker 2: ask ask me. Yeah, so yeah, one hundred percent agree, Dallas. 1893 01:29:43,093 --> 01:29:46,013 Speaker 2: And you've got to say Stevie wonder in terms of longevity. 1894 01:29:46,053 --> 01:29:46,452 Speaker 1: Oh my god. 1895 01:29:46,532 --> 01:29:47,852 Speaker 3: It's a good point though, because if you come in 1896 01:29:47,893 --> 01:29:50,572 Speaker 3: and you do something different and innovative and something nobody's 1897 01:29:50,612 --> 01:29:53,812 Speaker 3: ever seen before, that Nirvana arguably arguably did, but didn't 1898 01:29:54,293 --> 01:29:57,492 Speaker 3: back it up with longevity, Like you know, Brian Wilson, 1899 01:29:57,572 --> 01:29:59,692 Speaker 3: Bob Dylan, all of those names you listed. 1900 01:29:59,492 --> 01:30:00,973 Speaker 2: There, Dallas, I think that's spot on. 1901 01:30:01,093 --> 01:30:02,293 Speaker 3: You've got to be in it for the long haul 1902 01:30:02,772 --> 01:30:05,333 Speaker 3: and be consistent and bring new things to the table 1903 01:30:05,372 --> 01:30:06,132 Speaker 3: over a long period. 1904 01:30:07,333 --> 01:30:07,812 Speaker 6: Absolutely. 1905 01:30:07,933 --> 01:30:10,572 Speaker 7: Yeah, they all those have done that, haven't they. 1906 01:30:10,893 --> 01:30:15,652 Speaker 19: Yeah, Yeah, they've doctored and brought new things to the table. 1907 01:30:16,333 --> 01:30:16,532 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1908 01:30:17,412 --> 01:30:19,253 Speaker 2: Thank you so much for your call, Dallas. 1909 01:30:20,253 --> 01:30:23,293 Speaker 3: Plenty of texts coming through, but we we're going to 1910 01:30:23,333 --> 01:30:26,133 Speaker 3: play some messages and we've got full boards at the 1911 01:30:26,173 --> 01:30:28,732 Speaker 3: moment as well, So if you can't get through, keep trying. 1912 01:30:28,772 --> 01:30:31,892 Speaker 3: Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty.

You've got 1926 01:31:05,692 --> 01:31:07,412 Speaker 2: to say, John and Williams has got to be up there. 1927 01:31:08,893 --> 01:31:14,893 Speaker 2: So many great themes, you know, Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Superman, 1928 01:31:15,572 --> 01:31:18,052 Speaker 2: e T Harry Potter. 1929 01:31:18,772 --> 01:31:22,333 Speaker 3: Well, I mean yeah, if you mentioned composers. Hans Zimmer 1930 01:31:22,532 --> 01:31:26,812 Speaker 3: has had an incredibly successful career as a movie composer, 1931 01:31:27,372 --> 01:31:31,452 Speaker 3: Lord of the Rings. He's worked with Oh gosh, I'm 1932 01:31:31,492 --> 01:31:34,492 Speaker 3: going to forget his name now. Oh man, it will 1933 01:31:34,532 --> 01:31:35,932 Speaker 3: come back to me. It's on the top of my tongue. 1934 01:31:36,173 --> 01:31:39,452 Speaker 2: Jaws theme. Absolutely, you go, oh, you gotta put them 1935 01:31:39,492 --> 01:31:41,253 Speaker 2: in the Home Alone. I don't really know the home 1936 01:31:41,253 --> 01:31:45,093 Speaker 2: alone thing. Good movie though. He came up with the 1937 01:31:45,173 --> 01:31:51,492 Speaker 2: close Close Encounters of the Third Time Man Allan, Welcome 1938 01:31:51,572 --> 01:31:53,532 Speaker 2: to the show, You reckon. McCartney's a genius. 1939 01:31:54,772 --> 01:31:58,253 Speaker 24: Well, you've really opened up Canon Williams haven't. We're hoping 1940 01:31:58,572 --> 01:32:01,092 Speaker 24: you could really split it, like you could have okay 1941 01:32:01,253 --> 01:32:06,772 Speaker 24: songwriting duo's or producers only or people that perform their 1942 01:32:06,812 --> 01:32:11,452 Speaker 24: own songs sort of thing. But I'd say Lennon, sorry, 1943 01:32:11,532 --> 01:32:15,213 Speaker 24: McCartney would be in the top two, if not number one, 1944 01:32:15,372 --> 01:32:18,732 Speaker 24: because of his longevity, but also that he's written so 1945 01:32:18,812 --> 01:32:22,652 Speaker 24: many songs for other artists and he came out of 1946 01:32:22,732 --> 01:32:28,213 Speaker 24: a group and forged a solo career. And up there 1947 01:32:28,253 --> 01:32:32,532 Speaker 24: you've got to put Dylan for the same reason, and 1948 01:32:33,013 --> 01:32:37,372 Speaker 24: probably Verry Gibb because all three of them have been 1949 01:32:37,492 --> 01:32:42,852 Speaker 24: songwriters for other people that were you are well renowned 1950 01:32:42,933 --> 01:32:45,213 Speaker 24: in Barbar Streisen, Celean, Dion and so on. 1951 01:32:45,372 --> 01:32:48,612 Speaker 2: With you can you can absolutely tell when it's when 1952 01:32:48,652 --> 01:32:51,652 Speaker 2: it's a Gibb song, like a Woman of Love or 1953 01:32:51,812 --> 01:32:52,772 Speaker 2: Islands in a Stream. 1954 01:32:53,173 --> 01:32:56,333 Speaker 24: They're just but I mean they are harmonies. The Beach's 1955 01:32:56,333 --> 01:33:00,213 Speaker 24: harmonies knocked the Beach Boys out of the park. They 1956 01:33:00,293 --> 01:33:02,573 Speaker 24: were far and away superior. 1957 01:33:02,973 --> 01:33:04,933 Speaker 2: When you when you go when you go back to 1958 01:33:05,013 --> 01:33:08,052 Speaker 2: Paul McCartney, do you think he was writing his songs 1959 01:33:08,093 --> 01:33:10,452 Speaker 2: were when he was butting heads with John Lennon. I 1960 01:33:10,492 --> 01:33:12,532 Speaker 2: mean they wrote separately, but then they'd come together and 1961 01:33:12,853 --> 01:33:15,372 Speaker 2: bash out the songs. Do you think that competition between 1962 01:33:15,452 --> 01:33:16,732 Speaker 2: them made them better. 1963 01:33:17,213 --> 01:33:20,173 Speaker 24: Because I think their last album probably, although it was 1964 01:33:20,253 --> 01:33:23,572 Speaker 24: really a compilation for the album at the end. I mean, 1965 01:33:23,772 --> 01:33:25,772 Speaker 24: some of the best songs were on that, but Sergeant 1966 01:33:25,812 --> 01:33:30,333 Speaker 24: Pepper was probably the big change up for them, and 1967 01:33:30,532 --> 01:33:33,852 Speaker 24: that competed pretty I mean, some people argue that it 1968 01:33:33,973 --> 01:33:37,052 Speaker 24: competed directly with good Vibrations, you know, but you've. 1969 01:33:36,933 --> 01:33:39,652 Speaker 2: Got to say band songs like Band on the Run, 1970 01:33:40,013 --> 01:33:42,093 Speaker 2: Jet and Live and Let Die and a lot of 1971 01:33:42,133 --> 01:33:46,372 Speaker 2: those Paul McCartney wing songs were absolutely brilliant songs. 1972 01:33:46,652 --> 01:33:46,852 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1973 01:33:47,093 --> 01:33:49,852 Speaker 24: But then you see you can add songwriters in there 1974 01:33:49,933 --> 01:33:54,013 Speaker 24: as well. Neil Diamond, oh yeah, who wrote you know, 1975 01:33:54,093 --> 01:33:59,732 Speaker 24: he was Tim Panelli writer, and Carol King and you 1976 01:33:59,812 --> 01:34:04,733 Speaker 24: know Burke Backracks being mentioned, Prince Princes. 1977 01:34:06,093 --> 01:34:07,133 Speaker 7: For other people too, you know. 1978 01:34:08,652 --> 01:34:10,452 Speaker 24: And then you get into rock, you know, Page and 1979 01:34:10,532 --> 01:34:14,692 Speaker 24: Plant and Water and Gilmore, you know, and that's silly, Belk, 1980 01:34:14,772 --> 01:34:18,852 Speaker 24: And you've really got to think of a top ten 1981 01:34:19,532 --> 01:34:23,013 Speaker 24: collaboratively as being the best as opposed to an individual life. 1982 01:34:23,532 --> 01:34:26,452 Speaker 2: It's very good ones, yeah, but does the. 1983 01:34:26,652 --> 01:34:28,572 Speaker 3: Likes of Brian Wilson and you mentioned a couple of 1984 01:34:28,652 --> 01:34:31,213 Speaker 3: other solo people there, but does he get credit for 1985 01:34:31,532 --> 01:34:35,612 Speaker 3: operating by himself where McCartney and Lennon arguably were. 1986 01:34:35,893 --> 01:34:39,372 Speaker 2: You know, their partnership was part of the genius behind them. 1987 01:34:39,412 --> 01:34:41,532 Speaker 3: And yes, Paul McCartney went on to have a very 1988 01:34:41,532 --> 01:34:44,732 Speaker 3: successful solo career, but the Beatles was those two together. 1989 01:34:46,812 --> 01:34:48,852 Speaker 24: Yeah yeah, I mean you've already got to look at 1990 01:34:50,973 --> 01:34:54,853 Speaker 24: I mean he's talking about the songs and you know, individually, 1991 01:34:55,372 --> 01:34:59,452 Speaker 24: so really, yeah, I don't know the stats. You'd have 1992 01:34:59,572 --> 01:35:01,612 Speaker 24: to really, someone will crunch the numbers and come out 1993 01:35:01,652 --> 01:35:04,692 Speaker 24: and say there will be one that wrote the most songs, 1994 01:35:04,732 --> 01:35:08,253 Speaker 24: that did the best for the most people. But really, 1995 01:35:09,293 --> 01:35:12,652 Speaker 24: you know, my influencers were probably all of those people. 1996 01:35:13,173 --> 01:35:16,732 Speaker 24: And then you've got and behind you've got Andrew Lord 1997 01:35:16,812 --> 01:35:18,452 Speaker 24: Web and Tim Rice you know, yeah. 1998 01:35:18,452 --> 01:35:21,412 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, well that's a great thing as well as 1999 01:35:21,812 --> 01:35:24,492 Speaker 2: composers and lyricists as well when they come to you. 2000 01:35:24,772 --> 01:35:28,053 Speaker 24: Absolutely, yeah, yeah, there's so many, you know, there's really 2001 01:35:28,133 --> 01:35:30,612 Speaker 24: not really one all and I was lucky enough. The 2002 01:35:30,692 --> 01:35:33,172 Speaker 24: longer you live, I mean you can check. I suppose 2003 01:35:33,173 --> 01:35:36,932 Speaker 24: you could put Willy Nelson in there, and you know, yeah, 2004 01:35:37,293 --> 01:35:39,653 Speaker 24: guys that have been performing for seventy years. 2005 01:35:39,652 --> 01:35:42,572 Speaker 2: The redd Stranger.

Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, who ever 2294 01:49:48,732 --> 01:49:51,453 Speaker 6: wrote it the way he delivered it with a point. 2295 01:49:52,732 --> 01:49:54,492 Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure Marvin Gay wrote his own songs. 2296 01:49:55,532 --> 01:49:56,612 Speaker 6: I think he wrote a lot of them. 2297 01:49:56,692 --> 01:49:59,452 Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe not all of them, but the big ones 2298 01:49:59,492 --> 01:49:59,772 Speaker 2: I think. 2299 01:50:01,053 --> 01:50:04,333 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's hard to tell him that Detroit or what 2300 01:50:04,492 --> 01:50:08,652 Speaker 6: of this and that?

I've 2302 01:50:12,253 --> 01:50:16,053 Speaker 2: always assumed that Marvin Gay fine and see whether he 2303 01:50:16,133 --> 01:50:18,692 Speaker 2: did write them, and speaking of seniors and juniors, that 2304 01:50:18,893 --> 01:50:25,372 Speaker 2: wasn't as a happier senior junior situation as the Strokes situation.
