A'd be Jack. 3 00:00:13,213 --> 00:00:15,653 Speaker 2: I cannot imagine that King Charles wants to meet with 4 00:00:15,693 --> 00:00:17,733 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. Necessarily, he just has to do what his 5 00:00:17,773 --> 00:00:20,213 Speaker 2: government tells him to do, says Mike. Wow, he doesn't 6 00:00:20,613 --> 00:00:22,413 Speaker 2: have to, does he. But yeah, yeah, it's a fair 7 00:00:22,453 --> 00:00:25,173 Speaker 2: point mine. I guess the question is whether or not 8 00:00:25,213 --> 00:00:29,293 Speaker 2: the UK should be inviting Donald Trump for an unprecedented 9 00:00:29,373 --> 00:00:33,973 Speaker 2: second state visit if one of its closest friends in 10 00:00:34,013 --> 00:00:39,133 Speaker 2: the Commonwealth is subject to US tariff's Jack's is another mic. 11 00:00:39,213 --> 00:00:42,213 Speaker 2: We can all boycott US products we are in our house. 12 00:00:42,813 --> 00:00:45,453 Speaker 2: That's a big step.

Yeah, I'm not sure necessarily that it will come about, 31 00:01:33,773 --> 00:01:35,533 Speaker 2: because lots of countries don't want to put their head 32 00:01:35,573 --> 00:01:38,533 Speaker 2: above the parapet. But we'll see, I suppose, And yeah'd 33 00:01:38,573 --> 00:01:41,093 Speaker 2: be very interesting to see how Winston Peter's meetings in Washington, 34 00:01:41,173 --> 00:01:43,933 Speaker 2: d C.

Will you is that? 45 00:02:15,653 --> 00:02:20,333 Speaker 3: Yeah? But I've found a new way to make myself 46 00:02:20,373 --> 00:02:24,573 Speaker 3: feel really old. I've discovered at our local mall Coastlands 47 00:02:24,973 --> 00:02:29,973 Speaker 3: a coin flip bitcoin EIGHTM. I see there app now 48 00:02:30,053 --> 00:02:33,173 Speaker 3: at one hundred and twenty four sites throughout the country. 49 00:02:33,413 --> 00:02:36,573 Speaker 3: If you come across one of these, jack the coin 50 00:02:36,653 --> 00:02:38,893 Speaker 3: flip bitcoin EIGHTM. 51 00:02:38,453 --> 00:02:40,813 Speaker 2: Yeah I have. I can honestly say that I haven't 52 00:02:40,933 --> 00:02:41,453 Speaker 2: used it. 53 00:02:42,373 --> 00:02:46,253 Speaker 3: No. No. I looked at this bitcoin ATM and I 54 00:02:46,293 --> 00:02:49,253 Speaker 3: thought that's interesting. Can I insert the card I use 55 00:02:49,293 --> 00:02:52,573 Speaker 3: it at standard ATM machine and get out some bitcoin? 56 00:02:53,173 --> 00:02:56,013 Speaker 3: But no, of course that doesn't work. So I went 57 00:02:56,053 --> 00:02:59,933 Speaker 3: to their coin flip website where it's explained what a 58 00:03:00,013 --> 00:03:05,413 Speaker 3: bitcoin ATM is. A Bitcoin EIGHTM is a KIOSK that 59 00:03:05,573 --> 00:03:11,773 Speaker 3: allows us to purchase and sell digital assets known as cryptocurrencies. 60 00:03:12,933 --> 00:03:15,653 Speaker 3: I'm not sure I understand what a digital asset is. 61 00:03:15,733 --> 00:03:19,853 Speaker 3: But anyway, if I can't use some bank card, what 62 00:03:19,933 --> 00:03:22,093 Speaker 3: do I need if I want to get a bit 63 00:03:22,093 --> 00:03:26,013 Speaker 3: of bitcoin? The website had the answer, what do you 64 00:03:26,093 --> 00:03:29,853 Speaker 3: need to make a transaction? Is a smartphone? Had one 65 00:03:29,853 --> 00:03:35,613 Speaker 3: of those? A crypto wallet and cash a crypto wallet. 66 00:03:36,293 --> 00:03:39,533 Speaker 3: If I wasn't sure what digital assets were I certainly 67 00:03:39,613 --> 00:03:42,533 Speaker 3: don't know what a crypto wallet is. That the answer 68 00:03:42,613 --> 00:03:46,733 Speaker 3: was on the website. The crypto wallet is the coin 69 00:03:46,853 --> 00:03:53,813 Speaker 3: flip non custodial hot wallet, available for both iOS and Android, 70 00:03:54,333 --> 00:04:00,053 Speaker 3: making using coin flip services even easier, Well, not easier 71 00:04:00,213 --> 00:04:05,613 Speaker 3: enough for me, mister coinflip Jack. You know how ATM 72 00:04:05,693 --> 00:04:09,933 Speaker 3: machines are left you carry out transactions and various languages. Yeah, 73 00:04:10,493 --> 00:04:14,213 Speaker 3: I wonder if the coin flip Bitcoin eighty ms might 74 00:04:14,333 --> 00:04:18,853 Speaker 3: introduce a techno translation service that's for the older folk. 75 00:04:19,453 --> 00:04:22,493 Speaker 3: Now make me feel younger, Jack, Would you have known 76 00:04:23,013 --> 00:04:26,693 Speaker 3: what a coin flip non custodial hot while it was. 77 00:04:28,133 --> 00:04:29,933 Speaker 2: I don't know that I would have. I think I 78 00:04:29,933 --> 00:04:31,853 Speaker 2: would have had to google that as well. Kevin, I 79 00:04:31,893 --> 00:04:35,453 Speaker 2: certainly you know I understand what a digital wallet is, 80 00:04:35,733 --> 00:04:38,093 Speaker 2: so I get that right. But yeah, I think I 81 00:04:38,133 --> 00:04:41,093 Speaker 2: think the thing that will show my naivete on this front, 82 00:04:41,213 --> 00:04:45,533 Speaker 2: not being someone who has invested in cryptocurrencies, is that 83 00:04:45,853 --> 00:04:48,013 Speaker 2: I wouldn't know whether you use one of those at 84 00:04:48,213 --> 00:04:55,293 Speaker 2: ms to buy cryptocurrency or to transfer cryptocurrency into other 85 00:04:55,373 --> 00:04:58,693 Speaker 2: legal tender. Oh yeah, so I would have if I 86 00:04:58,813 --> 00:05:01,733 Speaker 2: turned up, I wouldn't know if i'd be withdrawing cash 87 00:05:02,133 --> 00:05:06,173 Speaker 2: like regular legal tender that we use physical cash, or 88 00:05:06,173 --> 00:05:09,853 Speaker 2: by buying cryptocurrencies. I wouldn't know. Maybe you can do both. 89 00:05:10,893 --> 00:05:11,773 Speaker 2: I don't think you. 90 00:05:11,773 --> 00:05:13,813 Speaker 3: Might be able. I think you might be able to Jack. 91 00:05:13,893 --> 00:05:16,133 Speaker 3: I read a bit about it, Yeah, but it got 92 00:05:16,133 --> 00:05:18,373 Speaker 3: to the point where I just thought, like half of this, 93 00:05:18,533 --> 00:05:20,573 Speaker 3: I don't even know what they're talking about. Yeah, so 94 00:05:20,933 --> 00:05:24,373 Speaker 3: you know, and and I mean it may turn out 95 00:05:24,413 --> 00:05:27,453 Speaker 3: that they become extremely popular. I'm not saying that they're 96 00:05:27,533 --> 00:05:31,653 Speaker 3: not a good thing. I just they're just for people 97 00:05:31,693 --> 00:05:36,573 Speaker 3: of my my generation getting involved in coin flip. Non 98 00:05:36,613 --> 00:05:39,733 Speaker 3: custodial wallets is highly unlikely. 99 00:05:39,893 --> 00:05:42,413 Speaker 2: It does sound like slightly dangerous territory. I would think 100 00:05:42,453 --> 00:05:47,533 Speaker 2: as well. I'm not looking at down your capacity in 101 00:05:47,573 --> 00:05:49,293 Speaker 2: any way, shape or form, but yes, I think you 102 00:05:49,373 --> 00:05:51,133 Speaker 2: want to be very careful before you throw too much 103 00:05:51,133 --> 00:05:53,573 Speaker 2: money at there. So what's the plan for your birthday, Kevin? 104 00:05:55,053 --> 00:05:56,653 Speaker 3: I don't really have one at the stage. 105 00:05:57,093 --> 00:05:59,373 Speaker 2: It's a couple of couple of I think on. 106 00:05:59,373 --> 00:06:03,213 Speaker 3: The day one, I think on the day on babysitting 107 00:06:03,293 --> 00:06:03,653 Speaker 3: all day. 108 00:06:03,773 --> 00:06:04,893 Speaker 2: Ah, there you go. 109 00:06:05,253 --> 00:06:08,493 Speaker 3: So I mean that's that's that's say, a pleasure and 110 00:06:08,533 --> 00:06:10,973 Speaker 3: an honor. That's fine by me. 111 00:06:11,293 --> 00:06:13,613 Speaker 2: Yeah, very good. I we'll enjoy it. We'll be thinking 112 00:06:13,653 --> 00:06:16,253 Speaker 2: of you and yeah, yeah, make sure you celebrate in 113 00:06:16,333 --> 00:06:18,133 Speaker 2: good form and enjoy a few treats in time with 114 00:06:18,173 --> 00:06:20,573 Speaker 2: the fan and Kevin will catch you. So that is 115 00:06:21,253 --> 00:06:22,933 Speaker 2: Kevin Milmer with us this morning. Thank you for your 116 00:06:23,653 --> 00:06:26,213 Speaker 2: for your texts and emails. Jack. Isn't it time that 117 00:06:26,253 --> 00:06:28,733 Speaker 2: someone punched the bully right on the nose? Is Paul? 118 00:06:29,213 --> 00:06:31,293 Speaker 2: I don't know. I just look. I think it makes 119 00:06:31,333 --> 00:06:33,653 Speaker 2: total sense for lots of countries like New Zealand just 120 00:06:33,693 --> 00:06:35,693 Speaker 2: to just to keep the heads below the power of it, 121 00:06:35,733 --> 00:06:38,653 Speaker 2: play a low target strategy for now, and even if 122 00:06:38,653 --> 00:06:41,973 Speaker 2: there is a more coordinated international response, it doesn't need 123 00:06:41,973 --> 00:06:45,013 Speaker 2: to necessarily be aggressive. I just think we need to 124 00:06:45,053 --> 00:06:48,973 Speaker 2: see lots of smaller countries, less powerful economies coming together 125 00:06:49,013 --> 00:06:52,813 Speaker 2: to actually push back and to and to work together 126 00:06:52,853 --> 00:06:56,733 Speaker 2: in each other's interests. Jack, the Canada situation is as 127 00:06:56,773 --> 00:06:58,893 Speaker 2: much to do with an election in Canada as it 128 00:06:58,973 --> 00:07:01,733 Speaker 2: is to do with Donald Trump. You started by saying 129 00:07:01,733 --> 00:07:05,613 Speaker 2: that everything's changing. However, in politics, nothing changes. Opportunism always 130 00:07:05,613 --> 00:07:08,813 Speaker 2: trumps everything. Pardon the pun, says Grant. Yeah, that's true. 131 00:07:08,853 --> 00:07:12,213 Speaker 2: Grant very well said, although you would have to say 132 00:07:12,253 --> 00:07:16,013 Speaker 2: that one of the ironies of this situation is that, 133 00:07:16,693 --> 00:07:20,413 Speaker 2: you know, even with the previous Canadian Prime Minister, Donald 134 00:07:20,453 --> 00:07:25,693 Speaker 2: Trump's dislike of Justin Trudeau has ended up benefiting Trudeau's party. 135 00:07:26,493 --> 00:07:28,093 Speaker 2: Just a couple of months ago, they were twenty five 136 00:07:28,133 --> 00:07:30,813 Speaker 2: points behind the opposition. Now they're more or less neck 137 00:07:30,853 --> 00:07:31,173 Speaker 2: and neck. 138 00:07:32,013 --> 00:07:35,133 Speaker 1: For more from Saturday Morning with Jack Tame, Listen live 139 00:07:35,213 --> 00:07:38,053 Speaker 1: to news talks he'd b from nine am Saturday, or 140 00:07:38,133 --> 00:07:40,013 Speaker 1: follow the podcast on iHeartRadio.
