Pascal, 11 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:30,880 Speaker 3: welcome to Thursday seven past six. Excellent reality check next 12 00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 3: time you're in a bit of a funk about this country. 13 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 3: We've had a bad time of it, of course, no 14 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,080 Speaker 3: doubt about that. A lot of people decided leaving was 15 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 3: the answer. Many have stayed and moaned a lot as well. 16 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 3: There has been much too moan about. Not as much anymore, 17 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,200 Speaker 3: of course, but we are still in the early days 18 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 3: of recovery, so some things still remain that are grieved many. 19 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 3: But The New York Times wrote a salutary piece this 20 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 3: week reprinted here in different places, about small Canadian towns 21 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,280 Speaker 3: and those small Canadian towns could have been New Zealand towns. 22 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 3: Towns with a shortage of doctors. They spent a fortune 23 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 3: convincing people to come and see up shop with sign 24 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 3: on bonuses. They also pointed out when doctors left, the 25 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 3: emergency clinics struggled as well. See there are some stories, 26 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 3: and this is the lesson for us where pretty much 27 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,320 Speaker 3: the whole world struggles with the same problems. Healthcare is 28 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 3: one of them. From Australia to Britain, to Canada to 29 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 3: New Zealand. There is a global shortage of nurses and doctors, 30 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:21,119 Speaker 3: and especially specialists. There's a global shortage of teachers. Immigration 31 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 3: is an increasingly serious issue. We're lucky we control ours. 32 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 3: Many don't. Extremism often is associated with uncontrolled immigration. We're 33 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 3: lucky there as well. Britain has a crime problem. Newspapers 34 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 3: daily are littered with gangs on bikes in major cities, 35 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 3: wreaking havoc. Economies vary. The jobless rate is seen here 36 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 3: is problematic, but Britain's is no better. Canada is even worse. 37 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 3: As Thomas Coglan pointed out in The Herald over the 38 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 3: weekend in a piece about student debt, part of the 39 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 3: issue is we having to live next door to a 40 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 3: pretty good economic story in the form of Australia. But 41 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 3: as Richard Quest, who was in Australia last week the 42 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 3: CNN reported, it's been an ominous summer his words, not mine, ominous, 43 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 3: with the bushfires and the sharkitects and a terror attack 44 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 3: and BONDI and that's before the heat kills you. And 45 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 3: if we could take anything from other countries, you know what, 46 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,919 Speaker 3: I'd take the Australian optimism. They want better, they feel better, 47 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 3: They're the architectus of their own success. Everyone's got issues, 48 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,119 Speaker 3: everyone's got goodbit what you choose to see and how 49 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 3: you react to those things is the key to it all. 50 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,559 Speaker 4: News of the World in ninety seconds. 51 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 3: And Mendelston by Epstein is still bogging down the British government. 52 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 3: Turns out the Speaker of the Commons has been on 53 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 3: the phone to the coppers. 54 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 5: I'd like to confirm that, upon receipt of information that 55 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 5: I felt it was relevant, I passed this on to 56 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 5: the Metropolitan Police in good faith, as is my duty 57 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 5: and responsibility. 58 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 3: Sir Red of the LIBDAMSZ News. 59 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 6: Jeffrey Epstein may have used British airports and even RAF 60 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 6: bases to traffic. 61 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 4: Young women and girls in and out of our country. 62 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 4: This is appalling. 63 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 3: It puts the Prime Minister in a hopeless position as 64 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 3: the calls for inquired grow. 65 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,399 Speaker 6: There's obviously a police investigation going on and I think 66 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 6: it's right that that has to go wherever the evidence 67 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 6: takes it, and we have to let that investigation run 68 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,919 Speaker 6: its course before deciding what next action is to be taken. 69 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 3: Busy in men Chester two one because they grabbed a 70 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 3: bloke and a mosque who had a knife and an 71 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 3: X in some drugs. 72 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 7: Prime Minister, is it not the case that every single 73 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 7: politician in displace and every single journalist has a responsibility 74 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 7: to stop funny the flames of hatred against the Muslim. 75 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 3: Community Here in two in his bi election day and 76 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 3: the seat of Gordon and Danton where a new poll. 77 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 3: Here's the Greens in the league. The voters are busy. 78 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 7: I've never not builted before ever there really disillusioned this time, but. 79 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 8: I voted well. 80 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 9: At first I've worried for labor, but then obviously, you know, 81 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 9: things change. 82 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 7: I'm not a racist person and not like that, or 83 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 7: I think he's getting a bit out of control of 84 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 7: the country. 85 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 3: Then state side, the debrief of the state of the 86 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 3: Union underway, well known mega lover Robert Demiro a. 87 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 4: Choke on the phrase we all love our country people, 88 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 4: because our country isn't so lovables right now. 89 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 3: Finally, from our easy Come, easy Go file, there's a 90 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 3: woman who briefly became the richest person in the world 91 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 3: sadly no longer so fig down in his gift card 92 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,839 Speaker 3: was put directly into an account, but the person doing 93 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 3: it used the gift card number, not the amount of 94 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 3: the card. So for a moment she had in fact 95 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 3: sixty three quadrillion dollars. Obviously they changed that, and the 96 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 3: good news is they did give her a ten dollar 97 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 3: our chef for the inconvenience, and that is news of 98 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 3: the world and what might have been in mighty Yeah Australia, 99 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 3: that inflation. Stark Andrew is going to work with us 100 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 3: and work us through that in just a couple of moments. 101 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 3: And once again the AI job equation wise, tech Global 102 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 3: have announced there's two thousand staff are going to go. 103 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 3: Is that a lot of staff, Yes, it is. It's 104 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 3: nearly a third of their workforce. Over the next couple 105 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 3: of years. It's all to do with AI. Some of 106 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 3: the teams in that company are going to be slashed 107 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 3: by fifty percent customer service, product development, and so they 108 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 3: got troubles AI and job. Twelve past six. 109 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio called 110 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:09,159 Speaker 1: by News Talk Sippy. 111 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 3: I'm reading George Pollock. He's with Sigmund Global Advisors. He 112 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 3: seems to think the meeting today this is two point 113 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 3: zero iran US. We think this meeting will likely be 114 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 3: a success and bring about some diplomatic opportunities being has crossed. 115 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 3: Fifteen past I'm sure in Partners Andrew Keller had Good. 116 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 2: Morning, Good Morning, Mike. 117 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 3: Was it a market mover? 118 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 10: No? 119 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 11: So no, I have to admit I did not listen 120 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,720 Speaker 11: to the whole one hour forty eight minutes of it. 121 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 11: So the State of the Union Address, Mike, I think 122 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 11: it probably ran along the expected lines in it sort 123 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 11: of almost two hours of rhetoric and a somewhat creative 124 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 11: approach to facts. The economy is roaring like never before. 125 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 11: We've a lot of stuff we've heard before, Mike. There 126 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 11: were some sort of economic related comments. He believes that 127 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 11: tarris could one day replace income tax. Taris would need 128 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 11: to raise trillions of dollars for that to actually eventuate. 129 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 11: And you've also got to speculate about the longevity of taris, 130 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 11: and you know whether or not they. 131 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 2: Survive for any period of time at all. 132 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 11: Planned for a new four h one K initiative that's 133 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,359 Speaker 11: a savings initiative for people, but not a lot of detail. 134 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 11: A reaffirmation of the plan to take some corporate entities 135 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,160 Speaker 11: out of the housing market. Again, we'd already heard that. 136 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 11: A lot of talk about affordability, the cost of living. 137 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 11: Recent polls suggest the average American isn't really feeling that 138 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 11: those affordability gains just yet. But a very much domestic 139 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 11: focus speech Mike, that did different they normally is there 140 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 11: normally is an element of international perspective, and the especially 141 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 11: there wasn't yesterday. Looking at financial markets, the US share 142 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 11: markets are positive overnight, the US tenure bond they're unchanged. 143 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 11: They've been pretty controlled recently. Actually over February, tenure rates 144 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 11: have probably formed a bit. Cryptocurrencies were up, so not 145 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 11: a real market mover, Mike, I think financial markets have 146 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 11: developed a sort of let's wait and see attitude with 147 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 11: regard to presidential announcements to see what actually transpired. 148 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 3: So not really okay that inflation in Australia didn't move 149 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 3: a lot, but it's stuck. It's up and it's stuck, 150 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 3: isn't it. 151 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 2: It is absolutely stuck. 152 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 11: So monthly CPI print across the Tasman looking at the 153 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 11: headline numbers, headline monthly CPI increased zero point four percent 154 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 11: month a month, annual rate of three point eight percent 155 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 11: to one change there, but it was above market consensus expectations, 156 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 11: which is sitting at three point seven. Now they have 157 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 11: what's called the annual trimmed mean measure that's arguably more 158 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 11: sort of interesting for the RBA at three point four percent, 159 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 11: that was also above market expectations. They thought that would 160 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 11: be three point three. Yeah, you look into the detail 161 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 11: housing components of the CPI calculation, Oh, there are still 162 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 11: contributing inflation, still running above market expectations. Just to sort 163 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 11: of reester rate the RBA cash rate there, they lifted 164 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 11: in early. 165 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 2: February to three point eight five. 166 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 11: This monthly inflation number has probably raised the possibility that 167 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 11: the RBA will deliver a further hike to that RBA 168 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 11: cash rate, which would take it over four percent. A 169 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 11: reminder that we're sitting at two point twenty five. So 170 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 11: they're going a different direction from us looking. 171 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 2: At market pricing. They're saying that that rate. 172 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 11: Hike could happen by the middle of this year. And yeah, 173 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 11: if you look inside the numbers, Mike, there's some evidence 174 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 11: there that discretionary category spending is picking up. You've still 175 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 11: got this crazy roll off of the electricity subsidies. So well, 176 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 11: I'm seeing a number that electricity was up eighteen and 177 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 11: a half percent in January. I think that's the impact 178 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 11: of the subsidies. Yeah, food price inflation three point one. 179 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,439 Speaker 11: Remember we're about four point six. They're doing better on 180 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 11: that front. That's an annual number. But their housing group 181 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 11: up just under seven percent for the year. So look, 182 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 11: inflation is sticky and they've got a problem. 183 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 10: Right. 184 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:47,199 Speaker 3: Oh, Steel and Tube, what do we know? 185 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, so we spoke about. 186 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 11: Vulcan steel yesterday.

Two observations. One, there's 262 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 3: a lot to like, of not love about America if 263 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:27,319 Speaker 3: you watch it, and I did watch it, and the 264 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,439 Speaker 3: number of heroes that they brought in it was a 265 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 3: Reagan idea many years ago, and it's brilliant to watch 266 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 3: the very best of Americans, so that's always good. And two, 267 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 3: as the heroes were honored, the observation was made by many. 268 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 3: Of course, it basically it was Trump giving a speech 269 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 3: that wasn't all about himself, which is not that common. 270 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 3: There was a lot of Trump in there, obviously, and 271 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 3: Daniel Dale claims that were at least fifteen false claims, 272 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 3: plus a whole lot of misleaders, a lot of them. 273 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:52,439 Speaker 10: Were the greatest hits. 274 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 12: He here at President Trump's rallies that he has ended 275 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 12: wars that never actually started, or they clearly have not ended. 276 00:12:58,640 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 9: By far. 277 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 12: The single subject with most falsehomestlating claims that his tariffs 278 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 12: are paid for by foreign countries. That is simply false. 279 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,679 Speaker 12: He claimed he secured eighteen trillion in investment in just 280 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 12: a year. That number is total fiction the White House's 281 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 12: own website. At this moment, or at least earlier tonight, 282 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,080 Speaker 12: I've used a nine point seven trillion figure. Way lower. 283 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 12: Even that figure is a wild exaggeration. He said he 284 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 12: inherited a stagnant economy. Now it's roaring like never before. 285 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 12: Growth in twenty twenty five but was two point two percent. 286 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 12: That was lower than in each and every year of 287 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 12: the Biden administration. The President Trump said he inherited record inflation. 288 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:32,199 Speaker 2: He didn't. 289 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 12: He inherited three point zero percent inflation. Gas prices, he said, 290 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,479 Speaker 12: they're now below two thirty a gallon in most states. 291 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,559 Speaker 10: And in some places one ninety nine gallon. 292 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,199 Speaker 12: There is no state, not a single one, where the 293 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 12: triple a state average today was below two thirty seven. 294 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 4: That was Oklahoma. 295 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 12: And as for that one ninety nine claim, gas Buddy 296 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 12: told me that of the one hundred and fifty thousand 297 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:53,679 Speaker 12: gas stations. 298 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 10: The company tracks across the country. 299 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 12: There were just four this evening, four out of one 300 00:13:57,559 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 12: hundred and fifty thousand that was selling for one ninety nine. 301 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 4: For Gallen. 302 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 3: Here's the thing I couldn't work out. Beef. He claimed 303 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:05,319 Speaker 3: he was talking about all the stuff that was coming 304 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 3: down in price, and he claimed beef was getting there. 305 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:10,679 Speaker 3: And of course we've got a deal on beef on 306 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 3: the tariffs because the herd rate or stock rate in 307 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 3: America's at a seventy five year low, and that's not changing. 308 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,439 Speaker 3: And so we are and I know from facts, we 309 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 3: are selling more beef to America, not only more beef, 310 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 3: but at better prices. So we're getting better value. So 311 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 3: how are we getting better value? But the price is 312 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 3: coming down in America? That party couldn't understand. But the 313 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 3: good part about it was he seemed jovial, and if 314 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 3: he didn't seem jovial, he seemed moderately upbeat. A couple 315 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 3: of purple hearts handed out, and some medals of honor 316 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 3: and some medals of legend, and the hockey team was there, 317 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 3: and it was like just wonderful to watch some moments, 318 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 3: take take the politics out of it and just look 319 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 3: at America and the picture of America. Probably the best 320 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 3: part if you're a Republican was when he said, stand 321 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 3: up if you agree with this. The first job of 322 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 3: a representative is to protect American citizens and not illegal aliens. 323 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 3: And the Democrats couldn't stand, and they wouldn't stand, and 324 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 3: the applause went on and on and on. 325 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: Anyway, more later, You're Trusted Home for News, Sport, entertainment, opinion, 326 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 1: and Mike the Mike asking breakfast with a vida, retirement, communities, 327 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 1: life your way. 328 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 3: He goes back from Italy. 329 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 4: No, she's not. 330 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 3: She's back in Italy from holiday.

Labor should bold home, of course, 339 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 3: and I don't think they will. But the Greens are 340 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 3: in the lead allegedly. Anyway, all of that's still to come. Meantime, 341 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 3: back here, we got the cash scrap which is on 342 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 3: the Reserve Bank suggests the country needs thirteen hundred multi 343 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 3: bank hubs. So we like cash. Apparently we use cash. 344 00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 3: Cash is getting harder to get though the banks say 345 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 3: that's rubbish. Roger Beaumont is the CEO of the Banking 346 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 3: Association and is with us. Roger, good morning, I've good morning, Mike, 347 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:06,800 Speaker 3: thanks for having me. Not at all does this come 348 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 3: from nowhere from the Reserve Bank or has been brewing. 349 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 13: Completely out of the blue. We were very surprised to 350 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 13: receive this proposal yesterday. In fact, the media got it 351 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 13: ahead of us, so yeah, it was a surprise. 352 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 3: The survey they run the bit I have over eighty 353 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 3: percent of us use cash quote unquote sometimes what does 354 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 3: that mean? Do you know? 355 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 13: Well, that might be that you use it to give 356 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 13: you a nephew their annual This Day present once a 357 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 13: year or something like that. I don't know what the 358 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 13: more fulsome definition of that that is. But the bottom 359 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 13: line is this is a really curious proposal from the RBNZ. 360 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 13: It's kind of back to the future. It's almost like 361 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 13: Sport New Zealand demanding that Jazus size and leg warmers 362 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 13: makes a comeback without any appreciation of customer preferences, let 363 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 13: alone demand. 364 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 3: Can you or can they make the stick? Are they 365 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 3: in a position to do that or not? 366 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 13: Well, they are our regulator, so if they just deem 367 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 13: something essential and appropriate, they can make that call. But 368 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 13: I think there'll be a lot of discussion between now 369 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 13: and when the proposal or consultation period closes in April. 370 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 3: Well, has that a foregone conclusion? So they go to 371 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 3: the public and they'll say, Oh, the public love this, 372 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 3: they want more of because I think they do. I 373 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 3: think if you ask the public, do you want cash 374 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 3: more of it? I think the answer is going to 375 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 3: be yes, whether you like it or not. 376 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 14: Well, that that. 377 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,639 Speaker 13: Flies in the face of customer activity and customer demand 378 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:38,159 Speaker 13: because customers are increasingly not using cash in terms of 379 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 13: the way they interact and the way they make transactions 380 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 13: and payments. They're doing that electronically or via their app 381 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 13: or online banking, rather than going to an ATM and 382 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 13: punching in their pin and getting cash out to go 383 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 13: to the dairy to buy an ice cream. 384 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:52,639 Speaker 15: It's just a very. 385 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 13: Old fashioned model and approach. 386 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 3: But you know what people are like. You know what 387 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,719 Speaker 3: people are like. You're speaking to yourself, Mike, Well, I am, 388 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 3: funnily enough, I am because I don't use cash, because 389 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:08,400 Speaker 3: I never leave house because I'm weird. But I want 390 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 3: cash and I want the idea of cash. And it says, 391 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 3: listen to one of the surveys, eighty three percent of businesses, 392 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 3: even if they don't use cash, say it's important slash 393 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 3: very important for residents. Now that's that's the real politique, 394 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 3: isn't it. 395 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,679 Speaker 13: But there's nothing wrong with wanting cash, And Mike, if 396 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,880 Speaker 13: you want cash today, you can go and get it right. 397 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 3: Sure, but not if I'm in the country. 398 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:34,159 Speaker 13: Well no, but you could go to you could go 399 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 13: to a retailer in a very small town, for example, 400 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 13: and buy something and say, O, mate, can I also 401 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:40,120 Speaker 13: take twenty bucks? 402 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 2: Don't do that? 403 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 8: Can do that? 404 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 13: Well? They actually do in my experience. But you know, 405 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 13: this is just actually the prioritization of this work in 406 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:56,640 Speaker 13: terms of the expenditure is something that we just can't 407 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,400 Speaker 13: get our head around when thanks to be spending money 408 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 13: on much more important things in terms of technology development 409 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 13: and further scam and fraud prevention to keep consumers safe. 410 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 13: In terms of bang for bucks for consumers and what 411 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 13: they're wanting, the scenes really out of step their claim. 412 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,880 Speaker 3: The RBS claim that New Zealand benefits to the tune 413 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 3: of two point eight three billion dollars perenum if you 414 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 3: did this, do you believe that where would they get 415 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:21,120 Speaker 3: that number from? 416 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 13: We really don't know where they got that number from. 417 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,200 Speaker 13: And you know, we'd need to drill down into that 418 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 13: to understand it. 419 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,439 Speaker 3: I think they made it do that. I don't think 420 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 3: it's true. As much as I want cash, I don't 421 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 3: think that number is true. I think they're pulling that 422 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 3: out of their you. 423 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 13: Know what, well they your words, Mike, not mine. 424 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 3: But but here's the other thing for you. One hundred 425 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,399 Speaker 3: million dollars is what it's going to cost the majors, 426 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 3: the four majors to do this. That's a drop. You'd 427 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 3: find that behind the couch or reception that you're any 428 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 3: given major bank, wouldn't you it's nothing. 429 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 13: Well, look as I say, it's not. It's not about 430 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 13: the cost. It's not about the cost of implementation of this. 431 00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 13: Is it the best bang for buck for consumers in 432 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 13: terms of what they want from their bank, and our 433 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 13: first cut look at that is absolutely that is not 434 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 13: the case. Remember too, they are also proposing adding costs 435 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 13: to retailers because they're proposing that all retailers have to 436 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 13: be able to transact in cash. So that adds cost 437 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 13: to those small businesses because a lot of retailers and 438 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 13: our cash lists, because there's no demand for that type 439 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 13: of purchase, and so that adds cost to the retailers, 440 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 13: and that'll have a flow through to consumers and the 441 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:31,160 Speaker 13: total economy. 442 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 3: It's going to be a great to bupe appreciate time. 443 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 3: Roger Beaumont, who's the CEO of the New Zealand Banking Association. 444 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 3: My car went to the bank to withdraw three thousand 445 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:39,879 Speaker 3: dollars cash for a car. I was told, sorry, this 446 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 3: bank is cash list. You need to use the bank 447 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 3: that has cash twenty killing me to drive. Later I 448 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 3: could get my money. The cashpoint could only deliver two 449 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 3: thousand dollars. Now, this is part of what makes the 450 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 3: whole thing. So why are you using cash to buy 451 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 3: a car. So there are legal slash slash tax ramifications 452 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 3: around all of that, and you well know it eighteen 453 00:20:59,480 --> 00:20:59,919 Speaker 3: minutes too. 454 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 455 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 1: by News Talks a B. 456 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 3: Here we go, Mike, we still need mont Cash Americana 457 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 3: three hundred plus cars yesterday Openinaki selling the food.

I'll come back to the profit. Who 463 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 3: was it yesterday? Walworth's. There are certain people in this country. 464 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 3: We don't like supermarkets, airlines, banks, and if it's costing 465 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 3: one hundred million dollars to have a shedload of ATMs 466 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 3: up and down the country, we don't care because we 467 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 3: don't like banks, and in theory, we like cash, whether 468 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 3: we use them or not. Sir Roger's using the logical argument, 469 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 3: and he's right, isn'tdisputably right, But we want to use 470 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,440 Speaker 3: the illogical argument, which is we like cash. Full stop, 471 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:52,119 Speaker 3: fourteen to. 472 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:56,440 Speaker 1: Two International correspondence with ends and eye insurance, Peace of 473 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 1: mind for New Zealand business. 474 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 3: Oh my god, Joe McKenna, how are you.

You escaped to go somewhere else. 484 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,440 Speaker 3: It's funny, eh, yeah, it was nice to have a 485 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 3: bit of summer weather.

With the US 490 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 16: President Donald Trump announcing new fifteen percent global tariffs, Maloney's 491 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 16: come under criticism, under fire from her rivals because she's 492 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:48,400 Speaker 16: remained silent. There's been very little reaction from the government, 493 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 16: and the opposition is saying she should be defending Italian businesses. 494 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 16: The head of the Five Star movement, Jiuseppe Contact, asked, 495 00:22:56,200 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 16: is anybody home in the Prime Minister's office? But soos 496 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 16: dances In sharp contrast to the EU, the European Commission 497 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,719 Speaker 16: this week demanded that the US adhere to its earlier 498 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 16: trade deal reached last year. I think at the moment, Mike, 499 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,120 Speaker 16: it's anybody's guess what's going to happen. We don't really 500 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 16: know whether these new tariffs are going to go through 501 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 16: in their current form or night. 502 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 3: Yeah. No, the interesting thing is about the trade deal. 503 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 3: Trump was talking about that in the State of the 504 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 3: Union yesterday and that he was arguing that the people 505 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 3: who have done the deals like the deals, and therefore 506 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 3: they stay. But they've done the deals based on the 507 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:31,399 Speaker 3: IEPA thing, and the Supreme Court rules them illegal, then 508 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 3: what do you do? And of course that's before you 509 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 3: get to you got tariffs all over the place, depending 510 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,119 Speaker 3: whether it's steal or whether it's alls. 511 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 16: Yeah, and perhaps that's a justification for Georgia Maloney remain 512 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:43,879 Speaker 16: remaining silent at this point. Why she figures out what 513 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 16: happens next exactly. 514 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 15: Now. 515 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,720 Speaker 3: This police guy who planted the gun, I'm assuming this 516 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 3: hasn't gone well, Yeah, I. 517 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 16: Mean, it's an interesting case. An Italian police officer shot 518 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 16: a drug dealer dead and planted a replica pistol by 519 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 16: his boy to claim self defense. That has been admitted 520 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:08,680 Speaker 16: by himself and by prosecutors, and of course the police 521 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 16: are running for cover. But Maloney's allies, including Matteo Sloveni 522 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 16: from the far right League rallied around Carmelo Chintorino, this 523 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 16: police officer after the shooting took place, arguing that this 524 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 16: was a justification for the government introducing a new law 525 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 16: aimed at giving more protection to police officers who want 526 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 16: to use their weapons in self defense. So it's turned 527 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 16: into a bit of a mess for the government on 528 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 16: this particular issue. 529 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 3: Speaking of watching a mess the AI slop, Why Gucci, 530 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 3: I've seen the phone? Why Gucci done what they've done? 531 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:43,359 Speaker 3: Do we know? 532 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:44,879 Speaker 5: Well? 533 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 16: It seems to be a trend now in the fashion 534 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,640 Speaker 16: industry where not only Gucci but some of the other 535 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:54,120 Speaker 16: companies are using AI to generate images, probably to reduce 536 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 16: their costs in terms of advertising production and so on. 537 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 16: The latest scandal is Gucci using AI to create images 538 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 16: of an elderly woman that's used in advertising a model 539 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 16: strutting down the runway with photographers falling behind her. That 540 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 16: was another one that was released in December, so plenty 541 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 16: of concern about what that means for advertising and models. 542 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:19,879 Speaker 16: I think going into the future. 543 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 3: Couple of random questions. You knew you were looking forward 544 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,639 Speaker 3: to these coming back from holiday. I note it was 545 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,160 Speaker 3: and bear Ritz yesterday, which of course is not Italy. 546 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 3: It was twenty seven degrees. Are you getting any warmth? 547 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,640 Speaker 3: There is there any unseasonal warmth or of cold winter? 548 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 16: Look, it's been quite warm, about fifteen degrees this week. 549 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 16: I'm in Milan today. It's quite warm, but the heat 550 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:44,880 Speaker 16: is still on at night. So yeah, some encouraging signs. 551 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 16: But we had a very cold December, I think, so 552 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 16: it is a bit warmer now. 553 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,159 Speaker 3: I noticed also the bones of s Francis of a 554 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 3: CC have gone on public display. Are they worth seeing? 555 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 3: Would you recommend I go to them? 556 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 17: Do you know what? 557 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 16: I would really love to go and take a look 558 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 16: at that, because that too of Saint Francis up in 559 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 16: a city has a lot of interest, and I found 560 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 16: it really fascinating when I went there a few years ago. 561 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:11,440 Speaker 16: Apparently the Vatican told me four hundred thousand pilgrims have 562 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 16: been to see these bones in the first two days, 563 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 16: and I think get mad leading up. 564 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,560 Speaker 3: To yeah, well, I don't queue that's my next problem, 565 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,639 Speaker 3: because you know, it's like it's only been on the 566 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 3: bones have only been on display once before, nineteen seventy 567 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 3: eight for a single day. So this is this is 568 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 3: kind of history in the making, isn't it. 569 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 16: Yeah, I think it's pretty exciting. I'd like to go 570 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 16: up there, but like you, I don't really want to 571 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 16: deal with the crowds. 572 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,640 Speaker 3: No, and you also don't have any annual leave because 573 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 3: you've just been on holiday. So get back to what 574 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 3: nice to see if I can take a look, Okay, 575 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:44,639 Speaker 3: I'm nice to see you.

Just more records after records. But 595 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,400 Speaker 3: speaking which, Zesbury have come to us this morning. Their 596 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 3: previous goal of four point five billion in global sales 597 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:45,719 Speaker 3: by twenty twenty five are they're now looking at six billion. 598 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,640 Speaker 3: They're aiming to become the world's healthiest fruit brand as well. 599 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 3: This is their new news this morning. There they want 600 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 3: a double potentially triple sales revenue. They want to double 601 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,879 Speaker 3: per hect their returns. They want to lift Zesbur's global 602 00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 3: share of the fruit bowl from zero point six five 603 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 3: percent to zero point eight percent. It's a lot of fruits, 604 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,440 Speaker 3: a lot of bowl. They want to be between ten 605 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 3: to fifteen billion in revenue in the next ten years. 606 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 3: And just think about those numbers. I remember when Zesbre 607 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 3: cracked through two. Now they're talking ten to fifteen each year. 608 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 3: They're currently grind volume by seven to ten percent, but 609 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 3: they're still growing value and that is the critical part. 610 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,640 Speaker 3: Volumes one thing, values the other, so volume seven to ten, 611 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 3: but they want value ten to fifteen. So two hundred 612 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 3: and fifteen million trays. I gave you that one the 613 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:29,440 Speaker 3: other day. That's when the season just gone. Two hundred 614 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 3: and fifteen million trays. What they're now aiming for in 615 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 3: the next decade is three hundred and eighty to four 616 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 3: hundred million, so, in other words, virtually doubling business brand 617 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 3: premium score. That's the thing. It's a number you get 618 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 3: where companies measure customer loyalty, marketing effectiveness, the ability to 619 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 3: command higher prices compared to other products. Currently, their brand 620 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 3: score is one hundred and ten and it's one hundred 621 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 3: and ten and forty percent of their key markets. Their 622 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 3: goal is for all of its core markets to hit 623 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 3: one hundred and ten within a five to ten year target. 624 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 3: So they seemingly as well, can do no wrong. And 625 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 3: I were reminded once again it wasn't that long ago 626 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 3: that the headlines on Kiwi fruit was PSA, PSA, PSA 627 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 3: and PSA, and you're going, jeez, how does that ever 628 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,480 Speaker 3: get off? How do they ever get off their knees 629 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 3: and get off their knees. They did and fly. So 630 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 3: that's the good news. Get to Derry in just a 631 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 3: couple of moments, wherein I didn't realize this is my fault. 632 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 3: We're in one hundred and forty markets for Derry. You know, 633 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 3: we always talk about China and America and all that 634 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 3: sort of stuff. We're in one hundred and forty markets. 635 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 3: We're in virtually every single country in the world.

And then this weekend the 637 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 3: Indy cars returned Saint Pete, Florida, of course Scott McLaughlin's 638 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 3: as well as to raid the. 639 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: Client, the newsmakers and the personalities, the big names. Talk 640 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 1: to Mike the mic Hosking Breakfast, We're the defender, embraced 641 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 1: the impossible news. 642 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 3: Togsad B seven past seven, So got the State of 643 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 3: the Dairy Nation report out this morning. We have never 644 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 3: sold more of it, a record tw seven billion for 645 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 3: the twenty four to twenty five season, twenty one billion 646 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 3: liters produced and from fewer cows too.

Campbell Park is 649 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 3: the CEO of Dairy New Zealand and as with as 650 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 3: Campbell Morning Morning, Mike. Does it feel like golden days? 651 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 15: Look? 652 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 18: I think it reflects the good work that farmers have 653 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 18: done over a long time and also the markets that 654 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 18: were operating in So certainly I was down at Woe 655 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 18: mumir Field days in Southern couple of weeks ago, and 656 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 18: farmers are very. 657 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 3: Positive because the numbers we're talking about something on farmers 658 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 3: on dairy farmers on average four hundred and something thousand 659 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 3: dollars with the sale of Fontira and all the other 660 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 3: bits and pieces going on. I mean that's it's raining 661 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 3: money or am I overstating it? 662 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 18: I think the most important thing about that particular injection 663 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 18: into the economy is it's money that's not currently in 664 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:51,719 Speaker 18: the economy and you know that will be invested back 665 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 18: and then go around the economy. So that's good for 666 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 18: New Zealand. 667 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, one hundred and forty markets. So where are we 668 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 3: at with markets in terms of there's virtually nowhere else 669 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 3: in the world to go, So what do we do? 670 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 3: Just grow what we've got? 671 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:04,360 Speaker 18: I think it's also if you look at the work 672 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 18: that all the processes are doing also going up the 673 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 18: value chain into food services. And to know, one of 674 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 18: the beautiful things about milk is it can be turned 675 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 18: into lots of products. 676 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 3: Well, I was going to say about that, how much 677 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 3: of the money is coming in from what that core 678 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 3: ingredient stuff versus making it into something else where the 679 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 3: real though is or the margins are. 680 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,520 Speaker 18: Yeah, look, I think you know, if you look at 681 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 18: the growth, it reflects well in terms of that the 682 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 18: processes are extracting value for farmers and that's important because 683 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 18: farmers are good at doing the work they do behind 684 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,479 Speaker 18: the farm gate, and the processes are on the world stage. 685 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,480 Speaker 3: The options this year four from four, so we're looking good. 686 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 3: Is there any end to this? 687 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 18: Well, it's eighteen percent up since the start of twenty 688 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 18: twenty six, so that's positive. And if you look at 689 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 18: the futures for next year, just looking at the yesterday 690 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 18: on INSX, they're still looking positive around nine sixty eight. 691 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 18: So things are still looking good and there appears to 692 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 18: be strong demand. But it is a cyclical business and 693 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 18: so farmers are always conscious of that. 694 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 3: Good on, nice to talk and congratulations Campbell. Parker, CEO 695 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 3: of Dry New Zealand. Nine and it's past seven. Come 696 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 3: back to that in just a couple of mons. Got 697 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:14,600 Speaker 3: a very good question on the text. Maybe I'm weird, 698 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 3: but I loved it. I mean I loved it, almost 699 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 3: two hours of it. Yesterday State of the Union. Some 700 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 3: argue a chance for the president to reset. There were 701 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,600 Speaker 3: heroes and medals, plenty of hot here in hyperbole than 702 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 3: only Trump is capable of, of course as well. John 703 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 3: Zogby is a polster and political author and. 704 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 2: Is with us, John Morning, Good morning. 705 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 3: There's a lot to like. Take Trump out and will 706 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 3: not Trump take the politics out of it for a minute. 707 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 3: When you see those people, the heroes, the medals, and 708 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 3: there's a lot about America to like, isn't there? 709 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 19: Oh, there certainly is. The American people are fine, and 710 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 19: they go to work, they live their lives. They pay 711 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 19: a little bit more or are a lot more, but 712 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 19: they deal with them. The politics are a mess right now. 713 00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 3: Can't argue with that. The economic stuff he was trying 714 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,640 Speaker 3: to sell yesterday. Is that missage resonating with anybody at 715 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:04,800 Speaker 3: the gas station, at the grocery store or not. 716 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 19: You know, it isn't and and clearly prices are down 717 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:13,479 Speaker 19: at the gasoline station, prices of some grocery items, retail 718 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 19: items are down. But for the most part, the notion 719 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 19: of inflation, lack of affordability, and and so on is 720 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 19: baked into the American psyche right now. They've lived with 721 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 19: it for a long time. If prices are indeed going 722 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 19: down in some uh in in some kinds of goods, 723 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 19: it's already that they are considerably higher than they were 724 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 19: two or three years ago. But the point is that, uh, 725 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 19: you know, the president uh you know, painted a rosy picture. 726 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 19: It was a good attempt at it, but uh, the 727 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 19: very early stamp shot pulling thus far indicate that he 728 00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 19: really hasn't persuaded anyone. 729 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 3: I was going to say this, This didn't his midterm objective, 730 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 3: and this didn't move them and didn't move the needle. 731 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 2: No, it didn't. 732 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,960 Speaker 19: I think he started out strong. He was less combative. 733 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 19: I think the patriotism at the end, you know, kind 734 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:18,399 Speaker 19: of worked, especially for his base, but he was very 735 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 19: combative in the middle. He was taunting he democrats, they 736 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 19: were taunting back. There there were aside from the military heroes, 737 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:31,319 Speaker 19: there weren't any other heroes sitting in those seats last night. 738 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 19: But just a reminder of what how degraded our politics have. 739 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's amazed, there's no question about that. Do you 740 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:42,880 Speaker 3: have a view on Iran? I mean there's a lot 741 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:44,880 Speaker 3: of talk now he's he's built up a hell of 742 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,239 Speaker 3: a military prisons, and you don't do that unless you're 743 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 3: gonna do something. And he got the loss from the 744 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 3: Supreme Court. Say do you get a loss from the 745 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 3: Supreme Court? You got the polls the way they are. 746 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 3: Does he need Iran and some bombs to drop? 747 00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,880 Speaker 19: He needs something? But I don't believe it's going to 748 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 19: be Iran plans. Have no love affair with Iran whatsoever. 749 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:07,279 Speaker 19: And in the last few weeks, the outright murder, to 750 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,920 Speaker 19: the degree that we're able to catch it in the news, 751 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:16,759 Speaker 19: makes Iran even less favorable in the American mind. But 752 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 19: depending on how the question is asked and the level 753 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 19: of involvement, we're talking about anywhere from forty nine percent 754 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:28,840 Speaker 19: to seventy percent do not want any invasion of Iran 755 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:33,280 Speaker 19: at all whatsoever, under any circumstances. 756 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 3: Nice talk to you, John, John Zogby, who's aposter and 757 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:38,919 Speaker 3: political author with us coming up thirteen past seven, Ask 758 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 3: game Mike, why were all the great news on the 759 00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 3: deary and the zespri et cetera. Is the new Zealand 760 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 3: dollar so low? That's a very very good question. The 761 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,400 Speaker 3: answer is complex and depending on who you ask you, 762 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 3: we had a different answer every time. But the fact 763 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 3: that we sell a lot of stuff to the world 764 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:56,360 Speaker 3: is not necessarily directly connected to the dollar. It's connected 765 00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:59,239 Speaker 3: to quality and demand and the fact that we are 766 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 3: selling so much the world is in fact based on 767 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:04,120 Speaker 3: our dollar, and the lower our dollar is for export 768 00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:05,920 Speaker 3: is the better it is because you have to hand 769 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 3: over for what is it, forty four forty four p 770 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:12,120 Speaker 3: you get a new Zealand dollar, fifty euro you get 771 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:14,400 Speaker 3: a new Zealand dollar, eighty four Australian you get a 772 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:16,919 Speaker 3: new Zealand dollar. Generally speaking, the reason of the dollar 773 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 3: is so low is our economy is still to emerge 774 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 3: in a way that the world looks at us and 775 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:24,880 Speaker 3: goes that place is on fire in a nutshell. 776 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 1: Thirteen Past the Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on 777 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,880 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio powered by News Talks at b. 778 00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:34,560 Speaker 12: SO. 779 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:36,480 Speaker 3: Mike, the value is and what you turn the milk into. 780 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:38,839 Speaker 3: But they just sold those businesses. No, don't get that wrong. 781 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 3: They're two completely different things. What I was referring to 782 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:45,279 Speaker 3: is there are by products of bulk milk powder and 783 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:48,880 Speaker 3: their nutritional ingredients that go into other products. So you 784 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 3: have shipped them off to places like Japan, they'll put 785 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 3: them in infant formula and gum and all sorts of 786 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,960 Speaker 3: weird and wonderful things. And the cost per kilo retailer 787 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 3: that is extraordinary. So it's the ingredients, not that I'm 788 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:00,799 Speaker 3: defending the sale. I don't defend the saale. I think 789 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:02,879 Speaker 3: the sale is a mistake, but be bad as it may, 790 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:05,319 Speaker 3: but just don't It's not into ice cream, so you're 791 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,399 Speaker 3: talking about the end product. They've sold the ice cream, 792 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:10,160 Speaker 3: the tip tops. What they're still doing, though, is making 793 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 3: nutritional ingredients, and that's where real money is. Anyway. Seventeen 794 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 3: past seven, couple of things in aviation. O'haki has been 795 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,120 Speaker 3: given the green light overnight as a twenty four seven 796 00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 3: backup runway. This is for emergencies and stuff like that. 797 00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:23,840 Speaker 3: Four and a half million to extend the air traffic 798 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:25,839 Speaker 3: control because that needs to be twenty four seven now. 799 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:28,279 Speaker 3: Also removes the need for airliance to carry that extra 800 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,720 Speaker 3: fuel on certain routes. And James Meager is the Associate 801 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,680 Speaker 3: Minister of Transport and is with us. Good morning morning, Mike, 802 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,440 Speaker 3: So Harky A twenty four seven. Is this material? How 803 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:37,880 Speaker 3: often you need to land a plane there? 804 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:39,439 Speaker 14: Yeah, not often. 805 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 20: I think in the past couple of years it's been 806 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,400 Speaker 20: once or twice on those occasions, but it's really been 807 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 20: official for the long haul flights to have that as 808 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:49,360 Speaker 20: an alternative. We think that if it could result in 809 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 20: an additional couple of services coming to the country or 810 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 20: a couple of larger planes, that it all pay for itself. 811 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 3: Would they, I mean, why would you land it a 812 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 3: Harkier And if you did, how you're getting downtown and 813 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:00,360 Speaker 3: all that, you know the logistics of it. 814 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:01,400 Speaker 12: Well. 815 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 20: Essentially, Ihaki is used as a backup landing place if 816 00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,720 Speaker 20: Auckland or christ which are unavailable for those long haul flights. 817 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 20: I Harky's got the third longest runway in the country. 818 00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:13,880 Speaker 20: And if you're a wide body aircraft coming from Qatar 819 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 20: or Doha or something like that, you have to have 820 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 20: an alternative nominated. Now, if you're flying to Auckland and 821 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 20: your alternative is Christ it you have to. 822 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:22,040 Speaker 4: Carry extra fuel. 823 00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 20: That reduces your freight and your seats and reduces the 824 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,879 Speaker 20: amount of I guess money you can make. So it's 825 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,000 Speaker 20: a disincentive if they can't nominate o'hckey, and we think 826 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:31,440 Speaker 20: m'll make a bit of a difference for the likes 827 00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:33,360 Speaker 20: of maybe Kataria or some of those airlines. 828 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 3: Okay, so when you start to handbreak on economic growth, 829 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 3: how do you justify that? 830 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:41,640 Speaker 20: Well, as those airlines are choosing to downgrade the size 831 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 20: of their services, that means fewer people are coming to 832 00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:50,759 Speaker 20: New Zealand dollars. Yeah, so last year Qatar actually downgraded 833 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:54,799 Speaker 20: the size of the air flights basically just the number 834 00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,160 Speaker 20: of people carried and the number of amount of fuel 835 00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,799 Speaker 20: edge to carry to a smaller plane. That mean few 836 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:02,440 Speaker 20: just coming. And it has that economic impact a few 837 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,319 Speaker 20: people here, few people spend their money, and fewer people 838 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:06,480 Speaker 20: enjoying our country. 839 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,759 Speaker 3: So the difference, Okay, good, While I got you this 840 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,319 Speaker 3: Golden Air thing, this fund you're running, so Golden Air 841 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,759 Speaker 3: get money. If they can't make it, it's because it's 842 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 3: a loan, discretionary loan. If they can't make it work, 843 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 3: they can't make it work. Are you putting our money 844 00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 3: at risk? 845 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,880 Speaker 20: No, it is alone, as you said, and we are 846 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 20: a priority in terms of paying it back. But all 847 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 20: these things do come with that's sight Cavat. 848 00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:29,400 Speaker 14: You're right. 849 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 20: If they can't make it work, then in the long 850 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:32,400 Speaker 20: run we've got to find out a way to make 851 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,359 Speaker 20: sure that we've got reliable regional connectivity. But we think 852 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:37,920 Speaker 20: this is a good option. It's a concessionary low interest 853 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,400 Speaker 20: loan to be able to allow them to refinance their 854 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:43,760 Speaker 20: debt and make them upgrades. And that connection between Tarcica 855 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:47,239 Speaker 20: and Nelson Wellington Academy is really important and the road 856 00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 20: goes out and for slips, so we think we make 857 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 20: it work. 858 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:51,920 Speaker 3: Where did origineer get Because I was reading about them 859 00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 3: and their Westport to Wellington route, The suggestion was they 860 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 3: weren't going to get any money out of that fund, 861 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 3: did they? And if they didn't, why not? 862 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:01,319 Speaker 20: So there's still some more application to be considered under 863 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:03,719 Speaker 20: that fund. So we've sort of announced the first part 864 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 20: of it, and there's about twenty nine one million to 865 00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:08,399 Speaker 20: go in that fund. That'll be part of the mix. 866 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 20: I think with a number of other airlines, ourrigin are 867 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,840 Speaker 20: in a slightly different situation because I think they are 868 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 20: less looking for things like debt support and more looking 869 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:19,800 Speaker 20: for root subsidies and that's not something that the government 870 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:20,879 Speaker 20: has gone to at this point. 871 00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 3: All right, appreciate it. James Meager, Associate Minister of Transport, 872 00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:26,160 Speaker 3: come back to these move on orders in a moment 873 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 3: seven twenty. 874 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:33,520 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 875 00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 1: by News Talk Zippy. 876 00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:38,799 Speaker 3: Well, you go to like organizations, don't you, that stand 877 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:40,920 Speaker 3: up for all the New Zealanders and they're prepared to 878 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:42,920 Speaker 3: say when something is not fair. So gray Power has 879 00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 3: been doing exactly that for decades. So grey Power has 880 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 3: chosen to partner with a hearing health provider, and so 881 00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:51,680 Speaker 3: that's worth paying attention to. They partner with Resonate Health, 882 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:53,719 Speaker 3: of course, because their approach to hearing care aligns with 883 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,799 Speaker 3: what grey Power stands for. Transparency, fairness and making sure 884 00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 3: that people are not pressured into spending thousands of dollars 885 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:01,800 Speaker 3: up front. So, as you well know by now is 886 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,000 Speaker 3: change the model. So instead of large one off costs, 887 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 3: they offer this simple subscription gives access to top of 888 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:10,480 Speaker 3: the range hearing aids, ongoing care, regular technology upgrades, without 889 00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:14,040 Speaker 3: locking people into big financial decisions. But this partnership, it's 890 00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 3: not just about pricing, it's about education and proper assessment 891 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,759 Speaker 3: and supporting people to make informed choices about their hearing health. 892 00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 3: So Gray Power would not put their name to something 893 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:26,640 Speaker 3: they did not genuinely think benefited their members. That's why 894 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:29,319 Speaker 3: they're linked up with Resonate. So if you're a grey 895 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:32,000 Speaker 3: Power member or you simply want hearing care, that's clear 896 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 3: and fair. Eight hundred resonate right, eight hundred Resonate which 897 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:37,719 Speaker 3: is eight hundred seventy three seven sixty six to two 898 00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 3: or online at resonatehealth dot co dot nz. Husket seven 899 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:45,200 Speaker 3: twenty four Huge reaction to yesterday's Politics Wednesday on homelessness 900 00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 3: and move on orders. Labour argue homelessness is up dramatically 901 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:50,839 Speaker 3: and there is nowhere for these people to go. Will 902 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:54,000 Speaker 3: the numbers out show that is simply not true In 903 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 3: Auckland anyway. Advocates working in the area tell us numbers 904 00:41:56,600 --> 00:42:00,319 Speaker 3: are down twenty nine percent, down twenty nine percent. Part 905 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:01,840 Speaker 3: of that drop is due to the government funding in 906 00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:04,839 Speaker 3: October of last year to improve outreach, as well as 907 00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 3: the provision of two hundred and seven housing places in 908 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,120 Speaker 3: the Housing First program. So, like a lot of other 909 00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:12,240 Speaker 3: issues being raised as being disaster as the truth tells 910 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:14,440 Speaker 3: a different story. Labour, as I've said, is going to 911 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 3: lose the election anyway, but their growing problem is reality 912 00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:21,080 Speaker 3: is smashing directly into their ideology. Their plan to this point, 913 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:23,439 Speaker 3: and it was reflected well in the Hipkin so called 914 00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:25,840 Speaker 3: State of the Nation speech, is to tell you everything's 915 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 3: a mess. It's all broken, it's all been cocked up, 916 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:30,920 Speaker 3: and it's going backwards. The theory is, if they set 917 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:33,680 Speaker 3: the mood right, what they have to offer doesn't actually 918 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:35,440 Speaker 3: need to be a thing. Hence they've got no policies 919 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 3: outside their capital gains tax. You're in a funk. You 920 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,800 Speaker 3: vote the government out because they've convinced you that life sucks, 921 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:44,600 Speaker 3: except the evidence that it is well. That it's starting 922 00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,359 Speaker 3: to arrive in volume, as we've just talked about this morning. 923 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:50,360 Speaker 3: Growth is up, spendings up, confidence up, performance and schools 924 00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:52,920 Speaker 3: is up. Kids are actually turning up at school. Our 925 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,680 Speaker 3: large industrial relations deals are being signed off, so strikes 926 00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,600 Speaker 3: are off, crime is down, and now homelessness is down 927 00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 3: as well. November, employment will have turned and the picture 928 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 3: broadly will be complete see it's hard to compete against 929 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:07,960 Speaker 3: good economic news, hard to compete against positive social news 930 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:11,279 Speaker 3: like the homelessness snats, and really hard. And this is 931 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:13,320 Speaker 3: where Labor and the Greens are blowing it against the 932 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:17,200 Speaker 3: wider will and view of the populace. On move on 933 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 3: orders like the gang patches and like the ram raids 934 00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:24,440 Speaker 3: crackdowns are popular. Defending crooks and drug addicts and trouble 935 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:28,560 Speaker 3: makers is not a vote getter, asking, Mike, just curious 936 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:30,400 Speaker 3: when you do an interview, Does the interview we know 937 00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,719 Speaker 3: the questions in advance? Absolutely not. I'm disappointed you need 938 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:37,160 Speaker 3: to ask the question under no circumstances ever, does a 939 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:40,240 Speaker 3: person know what the questions are? In fact, small insight, 940 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 3: I often don't know what the questions are, Mike. Can 941 00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:46,319 Speaker 3: you ask nicol in New Zealand about a heark here 942 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,440 Speaker 3: tomorrow should mean more saleable seats to the New York 943 00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:50,759 Speaker 3: Auckland League. Really, would you slip all the way out 944 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 3: to a Herkier just to fly to New York Meridian. 945 00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:56,840 Speaker 3: This goes back to our banking discussion in cash earlier. 946 00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:58,799 Speaker 3: There's a couple of companies, the power companies this week 947 00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:01,000 Speaker 3: in reporting seasonable worth as well and we'll get to that. 948 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 3: But Meridian came in with two hundred and twenty seven 949 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:06,920 Speaker 3: million net profit favorable wind and hydro see. I mean, 950 00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:09,919 Speaker 3: do you blame Meridian for being profitable the wind blew 951 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:12,960 Speaker 3: and the it rained, which is not really their thing, 952 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:14,880 Speaker 3: although one of the things they did say yesterday a 953 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:19,719 Speaker 3: core part of our business is to manage weather variability. Now, 954 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 3: how do you do that? So thereinto they've got so 955 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 3: you've got a solar panel, and you've got a windmill, 956 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:28,239 Speaker 3: and you've got a lake. How are you controlling any 957 00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 3: of that or are you just because of the diversification. 958 00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 3: Is that what you're arguing, Because of the diversification, the 959 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,120 Speaker 3: weather can be controlled, although it's not being controlled. It's 960 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 3: just you've got one thing that will work at some point. 961 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 3: Is that what they're saying news in a moment, Then 962 00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,759 Speaker 3: we'll get to the business of driver's cars and a 963 00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:45,719 Speaker 3: Kiwi at the point the end of. 964 00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:51,319 Speaker 1: That credible, compelling the breakfast show, you can't bess it's 965 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:55,399 Speaker 1: the Mic Hosking Breakfast with Bailey's real Estate altogether better 966 00:44:55,480 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: across residential, commercial and rural news. 967 00:44:58,160 --> 00:44:59,320 Speaker 4: Togs Head been Ludo. 968 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 3: John McGlocklin acting with US half lighted clock Indcent Peaks 969 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:06,759 Speaker 3: and Florida this weekend, of course, with a prospect of 970 00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:09,239 Speaker 3: a much better season this year than LASO looking forward 971 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 3: to the catch up meantime of twenty three minutes away 972 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:13,600 Speaker 3: from a self driving tech world has a strong New 973 00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 3: Zealand presence with Wave or Wavy. I'll get to that 974 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:18,440 Speaker 3: bit in the moment. They've secured a one point five 975 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:21,120 Speaker 3: billion dollar capital raise to support commercial roll out of 976 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,800 Speaker 3: their robo taxis now. The funding includes people like Mercedes, 977 00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:28,840 Speaker 3: Nis and Stilantis, Microsoft and Video Waby CEO Alex Kendle's 978 00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:33,400 Speaker 3: with us. Alex morning, Good morning Mike. Now is it 979 00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:34,520 Speaker 3: Wave or Wavy? 980 00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:37,000 Speaker 4: That's Wave. 981 00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:40,400 Speaker 21: I called the company Wave because I wanted it to 982 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:42,320 Speaker 21: feel like when you're in a self driving car, like 983 00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:45,279 Speaker 21: you're catching a wave. So it's all about riding the 984 00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:45,719 Speaker 21: wave home. 985 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 3: Okay, what does the one point five billion get you. 986 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:48,800 Speaker 6: Or do for you? 987 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:54,560 Speaker 21: Hey, this isn't an enormous capital raise. It's a real 988 00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:57,480 Speaker 21: privilege for us because we've been building this technology for 989 00:45:57,560 --> 00:46:00,600 Speaker 21: a decade and it gives us the opportunity now to 990 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:04,239 Speaker 21: go commercialize it. We've taken a different approach a contrarian 991 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 21: approach to the self driving problem. It's different from what 992 00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 21: you see from the robotaxis on the road in China 993 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:13,880 Speaker 21: or the US today, and this was one that was 994 00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:17,720 Speaker 21: once contrarion. But this capital raise really illustrates the breadth 995 00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:20,480 Speaker 21: of support we and our seeing for this approach, with 996 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:22,719 Speaker 21: some of the biggest car companies in the world backing it, 997 00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,840 Speaker 21: as well as technology giants like the ones you listed. 998 00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:28,000 Speaker 3: As best as you can, because it's sort of a 999 00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:31,799 Speaker 3: that's my main interest in this, how many pathways are 1000 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:36,000 Speaker 3: there to a car that can drive itself technically speaking? 1001 00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 21: Well, So the previous approach has really revolved around telling 1002 00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:45,680 Speaker 21: the car how to drive, mapping an environment, telling it 1003 00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:49,160 Speaker 21: where and how to go. And the problem with that 1004 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 21: is that the world we live in is so complex 1005 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:54,000 Speaker 21: and it's unbelievably hard to be able to do that, 1006 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,400 Speaker 21: very expensive, maybe not even possible to do at scale. 1007 00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:00,560 Speaker 21: So what we did is took an approach of training 1008 00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:03,880 Speaker 21: and artificial intelligence and AI that could learn the complexities 1009 00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:05,960 Speaker 21: of the world we live in. And we've shown now 1010 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:07,840 Speaker 21: that this is a system that can drive all around 1011 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:10,319 Speaker 21: the world and multiple continents and places it's never been 1012 00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:13,040 Speaker 21: in before. In many different vehicles. And so now the 1013 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:16,040 Speaker 21: more interesting question is how do you commercialize this technology, 1014 00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 21: And there are three different ways to do that. 1015 00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:18,320 Speaker 2: You know. 1016 00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:20,560 Speaker 21: One is you could sell your own cars, that's what 1017 00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:23,160 Speaker 21: Tesla's doing. The problem with that is you're limited to 1018 00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:26,320 Speaker 21: just the cars you sell. The second option is you 1019 00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:28,759 Speaker 21: can run your own fleets and you see that the 1020 00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:31,800 Speaker 21: Google Weimo robotaxis. But the problem with this is you 1021 00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:33,840 Speaker 21: have to go cety by cety and your rollout. And 1022 00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:36,680 Speaker 21: so we've taken a third option, which is to license 1023 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:39,120 Speaker 21: this technology to car companies and fleets around the world. 1024 00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:41,319 Speaker 21: And that brings us to the larger scale. And it's 1025 00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:44,680 Speaker 21: only possible because the AI we've built is so flexible 1026 00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:47,440 Speaker 21: and its ability to drive in different vehicles in different places, 1027 00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:49,560 Speaker 21: and we think this is what's going to bring self 1028 00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:51,000 Speaker 21: driving technology worldwide. 1029 00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:54,120 Speaker 3: So when you say license, that's an ongoing payment from 1030 00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:56,640 Speaker 3: the SADES on this and a stilantis to you and 1031 00:47:57,040 --> 00:47:59,680 Speaker 3: with updates coming as tech advances and all that sort 1032 00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:00,000 Speaker 3: of stuff. 1033 00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:06,400 Speaker 21: That's right. Every bit of experience AI driver has from 1034 00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:09,720 Speaker 21: vehicles around the world, it will learn from and continually improve. 1035 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:13,920 Speaker 21: So this year we're launching supervised Robotaxi trials starting in 1036 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:16,279 Speaker 21: London and growing to ten cities around the world with 1037 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:19,799 Speaker 21: Uber and then next year we're launching this technology into 1038 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:23,600 Speaker 21: cars you can buy with companies like Nissan, and this 1039 00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:25,719 Speaker 21: will start as a hands off driving experience with a 1040 00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:28,560 Speaker 21: car will drive autonomously and you need to monitor the 1041 00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:32,279 Speaker 21: system and then improve until it becomes eyes off where 1042 00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:34,279 Speaker 21: you can actually take your eyes off the road and 1043 00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:37,560 Speaker 21: let the car tak liability for driving, allow you to 1044 00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:41,000 Speaker 21: read a book or what you're engage with media, do 1045 00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:43,680 Speaker 21: whatever you want with the time, and of course make 1046 00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:45,720 Speaker 21: the driving experience that much safer. 1047 00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 3: See I'm reading in the BBC this morning, you're arguing 1048 00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:50,280 Speaker 3: that you'll be able to deal with potholes in England. 1049 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:52,640 Speaker 3: What about New Zealand, as you would well remember, and 1050 00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:55,200 Speaker 3: the roads that don't have any lines on them, and 1051 00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:57,359 Speaker 3: then they're wider, and then they're narrow, and then there's 1052 00:48:57,400 --> 00:48:59,279 Speaker 3: a truck pucked down on the corner, and again of 1053 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:02,120 Speaker 3: the whole news experience. You say your tech can do that. 1054 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:08,120 Speaker 21: Absolutely that all of those scenarios you describe will be 1055 00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:11,200 Speaker 21: something that technology naturally learns to drive. I mean we've 1056 00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:13,640 Speaker 21: tested it. We haven't come to New Zealand yet, but 1057 00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:17,080 Speaker 21: I can't wait. It's on our roadmap. But we've been 1058 00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:21,080 Speaker 21: north of the Arctic Circle in Sweden and Finland. We've 1059 00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:24,480 Speaker 21: been to the busy market streets of Tokyo and Japan, 1060 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:27,520 Speaker 21: and of course downtown London. So we've been all around 1061 00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:29,959 Speaker 21: the world in these kind of places. We've driven around 1062 00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,200 Speaker 21: the Arc de Triomph in France and you see whether 1063 00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:35,480 Speaker 21: it's medieval roads with cobblestones or whether it's country roads. 1064 00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:38,719 Speaker 21: I'm sure we'll be able to go through everywhere through 1065 00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:41,759 Speaker 21: New Zealand as well. It's got the intelligence to drive 1066 00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:43,600 Speaker 21: and all of these places reliably. 1067 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:46,800 Speaker 3: What about the demand? Do people actually want it? 1068 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:51,440 Speaker 21: That's the other thing that I think we're seeing is 1069 00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:56,080 Speaker 21: that we've now got people are really demonstrating that autonomy 1070 00:49:56,160 --> 00:50:00,440 Speaker 21: is something that not only will bring safety and accessible admits, 1071 00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:02,560 Speaker 21: but it's something that people actually want and want to 1072 00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:06,600 Speaker 21: pay for. So, for example, in San Francisco, through some 1073 00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:10,600 Speaker 21: early trials of robotaxis, you're seeing robotaxis there that they 1074 00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:14,399 Speaker 21: have that twenty percent more expensive on average, maybe they're 1075 00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:20,080 Speaker 21: thirty percent longer wait times than say a human driven 1076 00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:23,759 Speaker 21: taxi service. Yet people prefer and want to ride in 1077 00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:28,320 Speaker 21: these experiences because they provide a more safe, consistent, hygienic, 1078 00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:33,120 Speaker 21: clean driving experience. And then you find, you know, for 1079 00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:37,080 Speaker 21: new vehicles like testas, that people they're now seeing billions 1080 00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:40,400 Speaker 21: of revenue, serious money that people are paying for this technology. 1081 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:43,000 Speaker 21: Now it'll be a choice if you want to drive 1082 00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:45,160 Speaker 21: yourself and have an AI watch you're driving, or if 1083 00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:46,840 Speaker 21: you want to ride in a robotaxi, or if you 1084 00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:50,520 Speaker 21: want to take other forms of transportation, that'll be your choice. 1085 00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:53,520 Speaker 21: But we're seeing the benefits that really are now being 1086 00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:56,719 Speaker 21: seen by consumers. And the question is what is going 1087 00:50:56,800 --> 00:50:59,480 Speaker 21: to bring that to scale to everywhere around the world. 1088 00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:03,279 Speaker 3: What year do I ring you where this is like 1089 00:51:03,480 --> 00:51:06,359 Speaker 3: not just a thing, it's not coming, It's like it's 1090 00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:08,520 Speaker 3: every day and it's no longer a big deal. 1091 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:15,359 Speaker 21: I think. So what we're going to see this year 1092 00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:17,800 Speaker 21: is our trials we brought up in major cities around 1093 00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:23,000 Speaker 21: the world, and they'll start with modest vehicle numbers but grow. 1094 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:25,600 Speaker 21: And the thing that we've done is we've partnered with 1095 00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:29,239 Speaker 21: automakers so that these vehicles can be mass manufactured. So 1096 00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:32,239 Speaker 21: we'll see this technology start entering mass manufacturing from next 1097 00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:34,680 Speaker 21: year where it'll be in cars you can own, and 1098 00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:36,680 Speaker 21: then very quickly after that we'll get to the point 1099 00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:40,359 Speaker 21: where the technology can drive in a safe and scalable way, 1100 00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:43,319 Speaker 21: and then it's about operational rollout. And so I think 1101 00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:46,600 Speaker 21: by the twenty thirties we're going to see this technology, 1102 00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:52,480 Speaker 21: you know, fairly universally accessible and with operational rollouts in place. 1103 00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:54,040 Speaker 21: And so I mean, you'd have to get to the 1104 00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:57,120 Speaker 21: nuance of what you're describing, but it's going to come quickly, 1105 00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:00,640 Speaker 21: and I think I think the if it's going to 1106 00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:02,000 Speaker 21: be quite profound. It's going to be one of the 1107 00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:05,240 Speaker 21: biggest changes we go through in our generation, this advent 1108 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:09,040 Speaker 21: of autonomy and robotics and how it's going to improve 1109 00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:14,080 Speaker 21: some of the complex tasks that maybe are unsafe or 1110 00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:16,080 Speaker 21: dangerous or ones that we want to free up our 1111 00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:18,480 Speaker 21: time from. And I think it's going to really benefit 1112 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:19,919 Speaker 21: the cities that we live in around the world. 1113 00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:22,640 Speaker 3: Brilliant. Alex's well done, congratulations, nice to talk to you. 1114 00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:24,879 Speaker 3: Appreciate it pretty much. Alex Kendall, who was the Wave 1115 00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:28,440 Speaker 3: CEO and obviously from the accent a New Zealander, so 1116 00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:32,160 Speaker 3: good on him. I bought the silliest thing over what 1117 00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:34,080 Speaker 3: wasn't the silliest. It was one of the silliest things 1118 00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:36,359 Speaker 3: over did is I bought a long wheel based rain rover, 1119 00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:39,880 Speaker 3: and I bought a long wheel based range rover because 1120 00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:42,800 Speaker 3: the back seat was one of those executive back seats 1121 00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:44,440 Speaker 3: that it had television in the back, it had a 1122 00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:47,840 Speaker 3: champagne cooler, and the back seat extended out so you 1123 00:52:47,880 --> 00:52:50,640 Speaker 3: could sort of lie down like a business class flight. 1124 00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:54,320 Speaker 3: And I thought, what a cool thing. Of course, what 1125 00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:57,279 Speaker 3: I didn't realize was I was the driver and I 1126 00:52:57,400 --> 00:52:59,279 Speaker 3: was never actually in the back seat, and I was 1127 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:01,840 Speaker 3: never there. And when I said to someone like I 1128 00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:03,520 Speaker 3: don't know, Katie, hey, do you want to drive me 1129 00:53:03,560 --> 00:53:04,400 Speaker 3: around the block while I. 1130 00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:07,600 Speaker 9: Sit in the back seat and drink and drink champagne. 1131 00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:10,040 Speaker 3: And drink champagne while watching television? She you know what 1132 00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:13,000 Speaker 3: the answer was, obviously, So it's sort of never gotteny use. 1133 00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:16,360 Speaker 3: But with with with driverless cars, I could have that 1134 00:53:16,520 --> 00:53:17,040 Speaker 3: car back. 1135 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:22,919 Speaker 9: It's kind of like having Parker, isn't it very similar? Yeah? 1136 00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:26,239 Speaker 3: Very similar? Seven forty five The. 1137 00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:30,799 Speaker 1: Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by 1138 00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:31,400 Speaker 1: the News Talks. 1139 00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:31,680 Speaker 15: It'd be. 1140 00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:35,640 Speaker 3: The Morning Mike if I purchased the driver's car. Will 1141 00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:37,680 Speaker 3: drink driving still be a thing? That's actually not a 1142 00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:39,640 Speaker 3: bad question, is the answer will be. And one of 1143 00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:42,439 Speaker 3: the problems with drivers cars, of course, is the jurisdictional 1144 00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:46,800 Speaker 3: work around it. And so you would need to have 1145 00:53:47,200 --> 00:53:50,440 Speaker 3: a law that says if you were in a you know, 1146 00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:53,360 Speaker 3: there various states of drivers cars as they're sort of 1147 00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:55,640 Speaker 3: is now, and there will need to be a law 1148 00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:57,520 Speaker 3: that says that if you were in the back seat 1149 00:53:57,640 --> 00:53:59,200 Speaker 3: of the car. It would need to be the law 1150 00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:02,480 Speaker 3: that says you need the package that doesn't need to 1151 00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:04,560 Speaker 3: be monitored or touched or whatever the case may be. 1152 00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:05,359 Speaker 1: We rang. 1153 00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:07,480 Speaker 3: Funnily enough, we rang Tesla the other day. There was 1154 00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:11,760 Speaker 3: a story floating about you can subscribe to certain aspects 1155 00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:16,200 Speaker 3: of drivers technology, and they were for sale in this country, 1156 00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:19,800 Speaker 3: but they've taken away the sales part and they do 1157 00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:21,960 Speaker 3: the least so you can pay a monthly rental to 1158 00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:24,960 Speaker 3: lease the technology for your teslaor if you want to. 1159 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:26,640 Speaker 3: And I wanted to know how many people had actually 1160 00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:29,000 Speaker 3: done that, because my guess is none. And so we 1161 00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:30,839 Speaker 3: rang them and they never rang back. They never rang back. 1162 00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:34,080 Speaker 3: Did they still chasing days later? So I suspect. The 1163 00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:36,200 Speaker 3: ANSWER's a bit embarrassing now and extra. I don't think 1164 00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:38,920 Speaker 3: people want it, is my guess. I think people want 1165 00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:40,759 Speaker 3: it on you know, like a bus, as I've seen 1166 00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:43,240 Speaker 3: a million times before. So if you're at the airport 1167 00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:45,040 Speaker 3: and the bus goes from A to B to B 1168 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:48,080 Speaker 3: to A to A to be, you know, that's technology. 1169 00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:50,040 Speaker 3: It saves time and hassle and all that sort of stuff. 1170 00:54:50,239 --> 00:54:52,840 Speaker 3: I just don't know there's a demand for you and 1171 00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:54,520 Speaker 3: I to sit in the back seat of our car 1172 00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:56,759 Speaker 3: going to the shop. I mean, what's the point of that. 1173 00:54:57,040 --> 00:54:59,279 Speaker 9: I want it. It can't possibly be a worse driver 1174 00:54:59,320 --> 00:54:59,680 Speaker 9: than I am. 1175 00:54:59,880 --> 00:55:02,800 Speaker 3: That that's true. How would auto drive work in emmanual 1176 00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 3: Nickel wouldn't Obviously you. 1177 00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:06,960 Speaker 9: Can't still get manuals, can you? 1178 00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:09,120 Speaker 3: Hey, Mike, who pays for a speeding ticket of the 1179 00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:11,239 Speaker 3: self drive cars to court? Well, the answer is the 1180 00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:13,680 Speaker 3: same as currently the owner of the car. The fact 1181 00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:15,640 Speaker 3: you weren't driving it doesn't matter the owner, as we 1182 00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:20,600 Speaker 3: found out yesterday from our son who's left the country 1183 00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:24,880 Speaker 3: and in the mail was the speeding ticket from the 1184 00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:29,080 Speaker 3: car that we owned that he was driving. Might raise 1185 00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:31,960 Speaker 3: that tomorrow, ten minutes away from eight, the. 1186 00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:36,120 Speaker 4: Mike Hosking Breakfast with the Defender and use togs enbiving. 1187 00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:38,320 Speaker 3: Away from How fascinating are these booz stats? A alcohol 1188 00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:41,000 Speaker 3: consumptions down eight point three percent, beers down ten, high 1189 00:55:41,040 --> 00:55:44,880 Speaker 3: strength beers down twenty seven, wind's down eleven. We averaged 1190 00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:46,799 Speaker 3: one point six standard drinks today? Is that a lot? 1191 00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:48,120 Speaker 3: Not as much as it used to be. It's a 1192 00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:52,200 Speaker 3: twenty four percent drop since twenty eleven. Anyway, Just Ruffle 1193 00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:54,719 Speaker 3: is the Garage Project Brewery's co owner and as well 1194 00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:58,279 Speaker 3: as morning. Hey doing mate, good? Are you feeling it? 1195 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:02,440 Speaker 14: I mean, we're definitely feeling a lot of pressure over 1196 00:56:02,440 --> 00:56:05,040 Speaker 14: the last few years. As you said, the volume is 1197 00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:08,360 Speaker 14: down ten percent has just reported. But I think the 1198 00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:12,040 Speaker 14: thing that's really driving this is we've seen bear excise 1199 00:56:12,120 --> 00:56:15,120 Speaker 14: tax increase twenty three and a half percent since twenty twenty. 1200 00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:17,960 Speaker 3: So you'd argue it's cost. If the cost was different, 1201 00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:20,600 Speaker 3: consumption would rise. It's not a health related. 1202 00:56:20,239 --> 00:56:24,719 Speaker 14: Thing, absolutely. I mean, the government has come out and 1203 00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:26,960 Speaker 14: said that they've missed their revenue target by one hundred 1204 00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:29,480 Speaker 14: and ten million on the tax take, so they've clearly 1205 00:56:29,640 --> 00:56:31,840 Speaker 14: taxed it to the point where people just can't afford 1206 00:56:31,840 --> 00:56:32,960 Speaker 14: to guide and drink anymore. 1207 00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:35,880 Speaker 3: How do you explain the spirits are up? 1208 00:56:37,520 --> 00:56:39,759 Speaker 14: I mean i'd argue that you know, people are potentially 1209 00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:43,560 Speaker 14: substituting or looking for alternatives that might be more cost effective. 1210 00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:48,160 Speaker 14: You know, we have great locally produced spirits in RTDs 1211 00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:50,200 Speaker 14: based on local spirits, but there's also a lot of 1212 00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:52,440 Speaker 14: important bulk ethanol products on the market. 1213 00:56:53,520 --> 00:56:54,880 Speaker 3: What are you going to do about this? I mean 1214 00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:57,839 Speaker 3: this argument we've had people on before about the excise tax. 1215 00:56:57,920 --> 00:57:01,200 Speaker 3: If that's the issue, do you see the industry see 1216 00:57:01,239 --> 00:57:04,160 Speaker 3: itself getting a win on this? Is it potentially going 1217 00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:06,480 Speaker 3: to change or you know, banging your head against the wall. 1218 00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:08,920 Speaker 14: I mean, I think we just need to look at 1219 00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:11,360 Speaker 14: what our friends over the bitch are doing. You know, 1220 00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:15,640 Speaker 14: we've got a three hundred and fifty thousand dollars excise 1221 00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:19,880 Speaker 14: grant in place for breweries in Australia. They're just passing 1222 00:57:19,960 --> 00:57:23,360 Speaker 14: legislation to freeze excise on draft beer for two years. 1223 00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:27,080 Speaker 14: You know, it's not just us who feel the pain 1224 00:57:27,120 --> 00:57:29,520 Speaker 14: as breweries. This goes all the way to hot farmers, 1225 00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:34,400 Speaker 14: Bali farmers. It again flows through to hospitality restaurants, bars. 1226 00:57:34,520 --> 00:57:37,520 Speaker 14: You know, this is a multi billion dollar industry that 1227 00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:41,720 Speaker 14: is essentially just been taxed in a bizarre, crazy way. 1228 00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:46,440 Speaker 14: You know, we levy our excise on CPI and post 1229 00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:48,960 Speaker 14: COVID we had we were the only country in the 1230 00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:53,040 Speaker 14: OECD who really continued taxing based on that post COVID 1231 00:57:53,080 --> 00:57:55,800 Speaker 14: inflation spike. So we're just asking for a bit of 1232 00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:59,240 Speaker 14: common sense. You know, we're currently paying twenty thirty one 1233 00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:02,600 Speaker 14: levels of tax based on that increases during COVID. 1234 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:04,720 Speaker 3: Is there for somebody like you are branding or a 1235 00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:07,560 Speaker 3: style thing then so if things are the way they are, 1236 00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:09,720 Speaker 3: do you get cut through with brand and style and 1237 00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:11,320 Speaker 3: you know, vibe and all that sort of thing. 1238 00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:15,240 Speaker 14: We will always keep brewing new beers and that's what 1239 00:58:15,360 --> 00:58:17,600 Speaker 14: we love doing, you know. And it's not just all 1240 00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:19,800 Speaker 14: about the alcohol for us. I mean, beers like Tiny 1241 00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:22,600 Speaker 14: They've been a huge success. You know, we are seeing 1242 00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:27,120 Speaker 14: people shift into beers with lower and non alcohol. But 1243 00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:29,200 Speaker 14: you know, people do want to drink local. You know, 1244 00:58:29,240 --> 00:58:31,840 Speaker 14: they want to support local breweries in their communities. They 1245 00:58:32,040 --> 00:58:35,400 Speaker 14: employ more people than the larger breweries, and you know 1246 00:58:35,440 --> 00:58:37,720 Speaker 14: there is growing awareness of that. We just want to 1247 00:58:37,720 --> 00:58:39,680 Speaker 14: have a fair go at actually producing what we do 1248 00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:41,440 Speaker 14: and not be taxed out of existence. 1249 00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:43,880 Speaker 3: All right, man, go well. Just Ruffle who was with 1250 00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:47,840 Speaker 3: garage project Diageo, which is the world's biggest spirit maker. 1251 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:50,440 Speaker 3: There she is a crash this morning. They lower their 1252 00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:53,440 Speaker 3: profit out look, global demand on alcohol is down. I 1253 00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:56,200 Speaker 3: think in reality is less about tax and more about health. 1254 00:58:56,600 --> 00:59:02,960 Speaker 3: There is a global move away from booze generally. Scott McLoughlin, 1255 00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:05,720 Speaker 3: who spends quite a bit of time behind a car 1256 00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:08,880 Speaker 3: wheel so he's not into the driver of stuff.

Now people think it's 1311 01:01:14,960 --> 01:01:16,920 Speaker 8: not going to be that, you know and type of 1312 01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:20,720 Speaker 8: what I'm doing, but it actually is very close, very physical. 1313 01:01:20,840 --> 01:01:23,480 Speaker 8: But yeah, outside of you know, I don't drive an 1314 01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:27,000 Speaker 8: IndyCar basically from the end of September to you know, 1315 01:01:27,480 --> 01:01:30,440 Speaker 8: the start of February, so it's kind of crazy to 1316 01:01:30,560 --> 01:01:32,560 Speaker 8: think about that, but you know, it's all the same 1317 01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:33,000 Speaker 8: for everyone. 1318 01:01:33,160 --> 01:01:35,040 Speaker 3: Is it all muscle memory? You know, when you get 1319 01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:36,800 Speaker 3: back into the car after we gatload. 1320 01:01:36,480 --> 01:01:37,200 Speaker 2: That it is. 1321 01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:39,120 Speaker 8: Yeah, it's a little bit different, you know, after you've 1322 01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:42,920 Speaker 8: driven I drive Corvette at Daytona and race in Japan 1323 01:01:43,040 --> 01:01:45,000 Speaker 8: as well, and you know, it's a little bit different 1324 01:01:45,040 --> 01:01:46,720 Speaker 8: having a roof over my head. But once I jumped 1325 01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:49,640 Speaker 8: in the IndyCar, I had a couple of laps underneath about. 1326 01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:51,640 Speaker 3: I was okay, yeah, you talked briefly about last year. 1327 01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:55,040 Speaker 3: Let's not dwell on that. But does it sit psychologically? 1328 01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:57,160 Speaker 3: How does it sit psychologically with you? You know, in 1329 01:01:57,640 --> 01:01:58,680 Speaker 3: some way, shape or form. 1330 01:01:59,720 --> 01:02:01,680 Speaker 8: I think in a good way, you know, I think 1331 01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:03,720 Speaker 8: in some ways I'm using it as a little bit 1332 01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:07,880 Speaker 8: of a you know, knowing that's really the lowest lows 1333 01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:10,680 Speaker 8: for me in many cases, and I'm trying to turn 1334 01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:13,680 Speaker 8: that negative into a positive. And honestly, I feel I 1335 01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:17,479 Speaker 8: feel rejuvenized from that. I know where I went wrong, 1336 01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:20,280 Speaker 8: but there's also parts of last year where it was 1337 01:02:20,320 --> 01:02:22,000 Speaker 8: out of my hands as well. So it's not trying 1338 01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:24,440 Speaker 8: to dwell too much on that. So you know, I 1339 01:02:24,600 --> 01:02:27,000 Speaker 8: know where to improve. I know, you know, my execution 1340 01:02:28,000 --> 01:02:31,280 Speaker 8: needs to be better, and but my pace itself is 1341 01:02:31,440 --> 01:02:33,280 Speaker 8: very good. It's just I don't have to do too 1342 01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:36,280 Speaker 8: much different. I just have to execute better and that's all. 1343 01:02:36,160 --> 01:02:36,760 Speaker 4: I'm working on. 1344 01:02:36,920 --> 01:02:38,880 Speaker 3: And what about the experience as well? You went to 1345 01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:42,240 Speaker 3: season six now, so where are you? You're at home? 1346 01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:44,880 Speaker 3: Obviously you feel good. You're a seasoned pro. Does all 1347 01:02:44,960 --> 01:02:45,320 Speaker 3: that help? 1348 01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:45,800 Speaker 2: Oh? 1349 01:02:45,960 --> 01:02:47,720 Speaker 10: For sure? You know I think right now, like I 1350 01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:48,840 Speaker 10: know what I want from the car. 1351 01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:52,120 Speaker 8: Even with the new engineer, I'm asking for things because 1352 01:02:52,120 --> 01:02:53,960 Speaker 8: I know what they did for me on the car. 1353 01:02:54,040 --> 01:02:57,120 Speaker 8: You know, whether it's a different spring or you know, 1354 01:02:57,480 --> 01:02:59,520 Speaker 8: something set up wise in the car, it's you know, 1355 01:02:59,600 --> 01:03:01,560 Speaker 8: I know what they've done in the past for me. 1356 01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:04,040 Speaker 8: So I'm using that experience leaning on that. You know, 1357 01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:05,760 Speaker 8: this is my sixth season in an IndyCar. I was 1358 01:03:05,800 --> 01:03:09,160 Speaker 8: only in full time supercar driving for seven years, so 1359 01:03:09,640 --> 01:03:11,160 Speaker 8: it's kind of crazy to think about that. 1360 01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:13,200 Speaker 10: You know, we're at this point now, but this is 1361 01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:14,040 Speaker 10: really go time for me. 1362 01:03:14,120 --> 01:03:16,760 Speaker 3: You mentioned the engineer, Roll, isn't it. He's a cool guy, 1363 01:03:16,960 --> 01:03:20,200 Speaker 3: good guy, because I mean, for people who don't follow motorsport, 1364 01:03:20,720 --> 01:03:22,960 Speaker 3: I don't think you can overstate the value of a 1365 01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:23,880 Speaker 3: good engineer, can you. 1366 01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:24,480 Speaker 10: No? 1367 01:03:24,760 --> 01:03:26,680 Speaker 8: And look, I was very lucky with my last guy, 1368 01:03:26,800 --> 01:03:29,120 Speaker 8: Ben Bretzman, but he's gone into upper management and it's 1369 01:03:29,120 --> 01:03:31,680 Speaker 8: awesome for him. But the best thing about our relationship 1370 01:03:31,720 --> 01:03:33,880 Speaker 8: before that was I knew been a long time before 1371 01:03:33,920 --> 01:03:34,520 Speaker 8: I actually. 1372 01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:36,520 Speaker 10: Started working with him directly. And it's the same for role. 1373 01:03:36,920 --> 01:03:39,640 Speaker 8: He's followed me a long time since in supercars and 1374 01:03:40,720 --> 01:03:44,600 Speaker 8: loves his loves his racing, and you know, he's very experienced. 1375 01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:47,400 Speaker 8: He's won championships all over the world, and I think 1376 01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:50,160 Speaker 8: he really understands me well already, and that bodes well 1377 01:03:50,200 --> 01:03:50,840 Speaker 8: for the rest of the year. 1378 01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:52,000 Speaker 3: Is that artill science? 1379 01:03:53,080 --> 01:03:54,920 Speaker 8: It's a bit of both. I think there's an art 1380 01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:56,919 Speaker 8: to keeping me calm, and there's a science to making 1381 01:03:57,000 --> 01:03:59,960 Speaker 8: the car for us. So I think, you know, he's 1382 01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:01,880 Speaker 8: he's a great dude. He's very calm, but he's intense 1383 01:04:01,920 --> 01:04:03,960 Speaker 8: as well, and that's kind of who I am as well. 1384 01:04:04,200 --> 01:04:05,920 Speaker 3: And can you tell whether it's going to work? I mean, 1385 01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:07,840 Speaker 3: I mean, obviously you want it to work, but can 1386 01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:09,280 Speaker 3: you tell if it's going to work? 1387 01:04:09,720 --> 01:04:12,680 Speaker 10: You just have this inkling, you know, I just feel comfortable. 1388 01:04:12,720 --> 01:04:15,480 Speaker 8: It's like it's like when you go to someone's house 1389 01:04:15,520 --> 01:04:17,280 Speaker 8: and you just feel out of place a little bit. 1390 01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:19,360 Speaker 10: You know, I don't feel that at all. I feel 1391 01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:20,760 Speaker 10: right at home. When I'm in his office. 1392 01:04:20,760 --> 01:04:24,520 Speaker 8: We're talking about you know, different setups and what I 1393 01:04:24,600 --> 01:04:27,880 Speaker 8: want from the car. He understands my language and that's 1394 01:04:27,920 --> 01:04:28,360 Speaker 8: a big deal. 1395 01:04:28,600 --> 01:04:31,360 Speaker 3: You've also got changes to the team, of course, new teammate, 1396 01:04:31,760 --> 01:04:34,080 Speaker 3: all that sort of thing. It's one of those funny stories. 1397 01:04:34,440 --> 01:04:37,680 Speaker 3: Is it like you're doing what you're doing within a 1398 01:04:37,840 --> 01:04:40,760 Speaker 3: team and you're an individual or is it like cricket 1399 01:04:40,880 --> 01:04:42,240 Speaker 3: and it is a team thing? 1400 01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:46,480 Speaker 8: In some ways, yes, that it's a bit, you know, 1401 01:04:46,640 --> 01:04:49,000 Speaker 8: you have it's every man for themselves, and then in 1402 01:04:49,160 --> 01:04:52,000 Speaker 8: other ways you need to work together. Ultimately, right now, 1403 01:04:52,080 --> 01:04:55,000 Speaker 8: I think as a team we work really hard together 1404 01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:58,560 Speaker 8: because we need as many you know, people trying different 1405 01:04:58,640 --> 01:04:59,600 Speaker 8: things to be faster. 1406 01:04:59,680 --> 01:05:00,960 Speaker 10: As a team, we need to be quicker. 1407 01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:04,840 Speaker 8: Ganassi is strong with Scott Dixon obviously and Alex below 1408 01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:07,080 Speaker 8: and they've been really really strong. You know, we need 1409 01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:08,960 Speaker 8: all hands on deck to be as good. But when 1410 01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:11,240 Speaker 8: we get to the fight and it's just us three 1411 01:05:11,280 --> 01:05:14,040 Speaker 8: battling or we're up the front, it's in some ways 1412 01:05:14,080 --> 01:05:17,520 Speaker 8: it's every man for themselves. But we we you know, 1413 01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:21,960 Speaker 8: we know that it's a team game and the only 1414 01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:24,920 Speaker 8: way we get there really is by working together to 1415 01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:27,080 Speaker 8: a point. And then when it comes to you know, 1416 01:05:27,120 --> 01:05:28,600 Speaker 8: whoever was to take the championship. 1417 01:05:28,640 --> 01:05:29,200 Speaker 10: It's Bobs Off. 1418 01:05:29,280 --> 01:05:31,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, listen, hold on. You mentioned Scott Dixon. I 1419 01:05:31,640 --> 01:05:32,920 Speaker 3: come back to that in just a moment. So with 1420 01:05:32,960 --> 01:05:35,160 Speaker 3: the Scott McLaughlin more shortly thirteen past. 1421 01:05:35,840 --> 01:05:40,400 Speaker 1: The Mike Husking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, cowed 1422 01:05:40,480 --> 01:05:41,520 Speaker 1: by News Talks. 1423 01:05:41,440 --> 01:05:46,160 Speaker 3: Balks sixteen past eight Scott McLoughlin's I guess now listen, 1424 01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:49,400 Speaker 3: just before the break you mentioned Scott do you have 1425 01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:50,440 Speaker 3: to call him sir Scott? 1426 01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:54,400 Speaker 8: Now he's Sir Scott on my phone, no joke, pretty funny. 1427 01:05:54,480 --> 01:05:58,680 Speaker 8: So I think that's amazing. I don't think he gets 1428 01:05:58,760 --> 01:06:01,439 Speaker 8: recognized all over the world exactly like how much he's 1429 01:06:01,480 --> 01:06:05,080 Speaker 8: done for New Zealand. And he was a hero of 1430 01:06:05,160 --> 01:06:06,760 Speaker 8: mine growing up and I'm just lucky I get to 1431 01:06:06,880 --> 01:06:10,240 Speaker 8: raise him. So great dude, But yeah, he's in my 1432 01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:11,160 Speaker 8: phone as Sir Scott. 1433 01:06:11,600 --> 01:06:13,440 Speaker 3: Do all the Americans get the knighthood thing? I mean, 1434 01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:15,080 Speaker 3: do they understand it's value and relevance? 1435 01:06:15,760 --> 01:06:19,880 Speaker 8: I think to a point there's definitely probably probably not 1436 01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:22,160 Speaker 8: taken as seriously as like we do probably in New 1437 01:06:22,240 --> 01:06:27,040 Speaker 8: Zealand or Australia. But amazing achievement for a guy that's 1438 01:06:27,080 --> 01:06:30,240 Speaker 8: done everything. So I just I'd love to be in 1439 01:06:30,320 --> 01:06:33,120 Speaker 8: the sport as long as he has been and his age, 1440 01:06:33,120 --> 01:06:33,680 Speaker 8: and that's fit. 1441 01:06:34,160 --> 01:06:36,440 Speaker 10: That's my goal. You look at someone like that and 1442 01:06:36,520 --> 01:06:37,240 Speaker 10: that's who you want to be. 1443 01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:38,960 Speaker 3: Ye I was going to I was going to ask 1444 01:06:39,080 --> 01:06:42,800 Speaker 3: exactly that. So he's basically giving you a pathway, hasn't he. 1445 01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:46,000 Speaker 8: Like he gives you the example that it's possible if 1446 01:06:46,040 --> 01:06:49,040 Speaker 8: you look after your body, if you're you know, you're solid, 1447 01:06:49,120 --> 01:06:51,960 Speaker 8: you make no mistakes, you use the experience that you 1448 01:06:52,080 --> 01:06:54,720 Speaker 8: learn over twenty plus years, you can be in the 1449 01:06:54,760 --> 01:06:55,560 Speaker 8: sport a long time. 1450 01:06:55,880 --> 01:06:58,360 Speaker 10: And then he's proven that time and time again. 1451 01:06:58,640 --> 01:07:00,720 Speaker 3: What are your personal KPIs of the year?

I'm 1468 01:07:35,360 --> 01:07:37,280 Speaker 8: not going to win every race, but if possible, I 1469 01:07:37,360 --> 01:07:39,800 Speaker 8: can maximize every race, and that's what I haven't done 1470 01:07:39,800 --> 01:07:40,120 Speaker 8: in the past. 1471 01:07:40,200 --> 01:07:42,919 Speaker 3: Couple of racing questions outside your particular do main one? 1472 01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:45,200 Speaker 3: Have you seen the superson What do you make of them? 1473 01:07:45,320 --> 01:07:48,960 Speaker 10: They're slow right now, but they're going to They look cool. 1474 01:07:49,240 --> 01:07:52,080 Speaker 10: I think it's cool that they're getting getting. You know, 1475 01:07:52,120 --> 01:07:54,840 Speaker 10: they've got a key behind the will and Ryan Wood, which. 1476 01:07:54,680 --> 01:07:56,880 Speaker 8: I'm excited for. I love what He's a great dude, 1477 01:07:56,960 --> 01:07:59,960 Speaker 8: and just yeah, I'm excited to watch watch them. I'm 1478 01:08:00,120 --> 01:08:02,200 Speaker 8: I'm actually most excited for them to go and race 1479 01:08:02,640 --> 01:08:03,840 Speaker 8: twice in New Zealand this year. 1480 01:08:03,840 --> 01:08:05,640 Speaker 10: I'm kind of jealous in some ways. I think that's 1481 01:08:05,680 --> 01:08:06,120 Speaker 10: really cool. 1482 01:08:06,200 --> 01:08:08,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. And the other one was the IF one. 1483 01:08:08,480 --> 01:08:10,120 Speaker 3: So I don't know how much you're following this, but 1484 01:08:10,640 --> 01:08:14,320 Speaker 3: in changing a car the way they have, I mean 1485 01:08:14,360 --> 01:08:15,440 Speaker 3: how do you get your hit around that. 1486 01:08:15,720 --> 01:08:18,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, I've spoken to a couple of guys in the 1487 01:08:18,240 --> 01:08:22,400 Speaker 8: field and it sounds like it's very, very tough and 1488 01:08:23,040 --> 01:08:23,680 Speaker 8: thinking about it. 1489 01:08:23,800 --> 01:08:26,760 Speaker 10: I mean, obviously, with the new rules. 1490 01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:28,840 Speaker 8: And the way that they change the regulations every couple 1491 01:08:28,880 --> 01:08:30,920 Speaker 8: of years, it does take a lot to learn. I mean, 1492 01:08:30,960 --> 01:08:33,120 Speaker 8: we had to learn a new system on the fly 1493 01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:35,120 Speaker 8: a couple of years ago with the hybrid system, and 1494 01:08:35,200 --> 01:08:38,320 Speaker 8: that was a lot in itself. We've finally got an 1495 01:08:38,360 --> 01:08:40,360 Speaker 8: idea of what it's going on, but I couldn't imagine 1496 01:08:40,360 --> 01:08:42,680 Speaker 8: trying to learn that every single year and trying to 1497 01:08:42,720 --> 01:08:45,360 Speaker 8: maximize it as well. And then you know, some guys 1498 01:08:45,439 --> 01:08:47,600 Speaker 8: are probably scrapped halfway through the year to build a 1499 01:08:47,640 --> 01:08:49,040 Speaker 8: better car for twenty twenty seven. 1500 01:08:49,160 --> 01:08:52,880 Speaker 10: So it's kind of it's it's weird, it's you know, 1501 01:08:53,200 --> 01:08:54,559 Speaker 10: I really enjoy my indicart races. 1502 01:08:54,560 --> 01:08:55,000 Speaker 2: I can do that. 1503 01:08:55,479 --> 01:08:57,640 Speaker 3: And I mean they suggest it's an age thing. I mean, 1504 01:08:57,920 --> 01:09:00,320 Speaker 3: do you subscribe to that the younger U, the more 1505 01:09:00,360 --> 01:09:02,280 Speaker 3: adaptable you are or is that not true? 1506 01:09:03,880 --> 01:09:06,960 Speaker 8: I think I think it's your reactions as you When 1507 01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:10,200 Speaker 8: you're younger, you can probably adapt to different things. 1508 01:09:09,960 --> 01:09:10,719 Speaker 10: A little bit easier. 1509 01:09:10,720 --> 01:09:12,360 Speaker 8: I mean, if you look at someone like Scottie, right, 1510 01:09:12,439 --> 01:09:15,519 Speaker 8: Scott Dixon being in the game for twenty twenty plus years, 1511 01:09:16,000 --> 01:09:18,760 Speaker 8: you know when they change to having the halo on 1512 01:09:18,840 --> 01:09:20,640 Speaker 8: our cars and the big era screen, it was a 1513 01:09:20,680 --> 01:09:22,960 Speaker 8: complete It was a massive weight shift. And I know 1514 01:09:23,080 --> 01:09:24,439 Speaker 8: for a fact that did take him a little bit 1515 01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:26,920 Speaker 8: to like get acquainted with that or it felt a 1516 01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:29,680 Speaker 8: little bit different, but with his experience he figured it out. 1517 01:09:29,840 --> 01:09:32,040 Speaker 8: I think as a young person, you just come in 1518 01:09:32,120 --> 01:09:34,200 Speaker 8: there and you sort of just drive the thing as 1519 01:09:34,240 --> 01:09:34,840 Speaker 8: hard as you can. 1520 01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:36,439 Speaker 10: I mean, it's it's part of it. 1521 01:09:36,640 --> 01:09:40,400 Speaker 8: So yeah, it's an awkward thing, but it sometimes works 1522 01:09:40,439 --> 01:09:40,560 Speaker 8: for you. 1523 01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:42,320 Speaker 3: Sometimes might be Smokee by the way, he's got to 1524 01:09:42,360 --> 01:09:44,160 Speaker 3: go cout. He always says, I should buy a go 1525 01:09:44,320 --> 01:09:46,679 Speaker 3: caut because they're super fun and it's super cheap racing. 1526 01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:47,519 Speaker 3: Are they worth it? 1527 01:09:47,880 --> 01:09:48,200 Speaker 15: They are? 1528 01:09:48,400 --> 01:09:51,679 Speaker 8: I mean, I'm the patron of Castport in New Zealand, 1529 01:09:51,720 --> 01:09:53,400 Speaker 8: so we could get you a go cart easy as 1530 01:09:53,479 --> 01:09:56,479 Speaker 8: But I think, you know, it's a great starting point. 1531 01:09:56,520 --> 01:09:58,719 Speaker 8: I think I think people forget, like, yeah, it's great 1532 01:09:58,760 --> 01:10:00,800 Speaker 8: that we go out there and we race, and you 1533 01:10:00,840 --> 01:10:02,920 Speaker 8: can race from a young age and it's fun. But 1534 01:10:03,439 --> 01:10:06,080 Speaker 8: the coolest thing I remember from gokarting was racing my 1535 01:10:06,240 --> 01:10:08,920 Speaker 8: family and going around to New Plymouth, for going down 1536 01:10:08,920 --> 01:10:11,840 Speaker 8: to Wellington, or you know, going everywhere all over New 1537 01:10:11,920 --> 01:10:13,200 Speaker 8: Zealand and racing together. 1538 01:10:13,720 --> 01:10:15,720 Speaker 10: And that's what's so fun about gokarting. 1539 01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:17,920 Speaker 8: So it's fun like to be on track and you 1540 01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:20,840 Speaker 8: get that thrill of racing, but you also had that 1541 01:10:20,960 --> 01:10:22,680 Speaker 8: thrill of going out with your mates and you know 1542 01:10:23,040 --> 01:10:25,280 Speaker 8: after that maybe having a beer and going home. 1543 01:10:25,320 --> 01:10:25,880 Speaker 10: You know, it's fun. 1544 01:10:25,880 --> 01:10:27,960 Speaker 3: All right, men, good luck in Florida.

Now this is interesting. 1573 01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:47,800 Speaker 2: B and Z. 1574 01:11:49,479 --> 01:11:53,920 Speaker 3: Have lowered their long term mortgage rates. Now what's interesting 1575 01:11:53,960 --> 01:11:56,519 Speaker 3: about that is the last time Hawksby spoke, before doctor 1576 01:11:57,160 --> 01:12:00,720 Speaker 3: Arna spoke, there was a suggestion that they kind of 1577 01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:03,240 Speaker 3: blew it, suggesting there were no more cuts it was 1578 01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:06,400 Speaker 3: over and the yield and the bond mark and all 1579 01:12:06,479 --> 01:12:08,519 Speaker 3: that stuff. Anyway, a whole lot of stuff happened, and 1580 01:12:08,680 --> 01:12:10,439 Speaker 3: long term money started to go up. 1581 01:12:12,080 --> 01:12:12,240 Speaker 10: Now. 1582 01:12:12,360 --> 01:12:14,759 Speaker 3: I don't know if it's materially changed, given what Bremen 1583 01:12:14,840 --> 01:12:16,960 Speaker 3: said the other day, but long term money appears now 1584 01:12:17,000 --> 01:12:19,439 Speaker 3: to be going down. So the B and zaid and 1585 01:12:19,479 --> 01:12:22,439 Speaker 3: they LA will follow suit, because well, it's either an 1586 01:12:22,479 --> 01:12:25,719 Speaker 3: oligopoly or competition, depending on how you see it. Nicoler anyway, 1587 01:12:25,800 --> 01:12:28,240 Speaker 3: so your three year money has gone down only a 1588 01:12:28,360 --> 01:12:31,240 Speaker 3: tenth or a point one, but your four years gone 1589 01:12:31,280 --> 01:12:33,800 Speaker 3: down point three six, and your five years gone down 1590 01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:38,080 Speaker 3: point four. In my maths, that's almost half a percent, 1591 01:12:38,880 --> 01:12:41,679 Speaker 3: which is material, especially over a longer period of time. 1592 01:12:42,080 --> 01:12:45,640 Speaker 3: So the longer money is dropping. So the concern was 1593 01:12:46,400 --> 01:12:49,240 Speaker 3: the best of the days had gone and you needed 1594 01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:51,040 Speaker 3: to move, and if you hadn't moved, then it was 1595 01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:52,640 Speaker 3: all a bit too late. So that may be an 1596 01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:54,800 Speaker 3: evolving story over the next couple of days as the 1597 01:12:54,840 --> 01:12:57,919 Speaker 3: other banks move. I do note they're offering personal overdraft 1598 01:12:57,960 --> 01:13:02,240 Speaker 3: money at thirteen point seven. Now, without sounding like a 1599 01:13:02,320 --> 01:13:06,040 Speaker 3: complete pratt, I'm lucky enough not to have or need 1600 01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:10,160 Speaker 3: an overdraft, but I mean, that's just a rip, isn't it. Honestly? 1601 01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:15,720 Speaker 3: Thirteen point seven percent for an overdraft. So you dip 1602 01:13:15,800 --> 01:13:18,240 Speaker 3: in because the bill's a bit bigger than your thought 1603 01:13:18,320 --> 01:13:21,320 Speaker 3: or whatever. And suddenly they're all over you at thirteen 1604 01:13:21,520 --> 01:13:23,560 Speaker 3: in an environment where your average money is four and 1605 01:13:23,560 --> 01:13:27,439 Speaker 3: a half to five, they justify thirteen point seven. I mean, 1606 01:13:27,840 --> 01:13:29,560 Speaker 3: god knows what your credit card number is. 1607 01:13:29,840 --> 01:13:31,439 Speaker 9: When they've got to scrape together a profit. 1608 01:13:31,560 --> 01:13:34,840 Speaker 3: Somehow, pennies are tight, Glenn, they tell me in the 1609 01:13:34,920 --> 01:13:38,000 Speaker 3: banking can't afford the ATM machine. So no, under the 1610 01:13:38,080 --> 01:13:40,639 Speaker 3: interest rates are so high. News in a couple of moments, 1611 01:13:40,640 --> 01:13:43,000 Speaker 3: then there's plenty going on in Britain.

Sky Television 1619 01:14:00,760 --> 01:14:05,960 Speaker 3: results in underlying earnings up twenty nine percent, fifteen cent dibdend, 1620 01:14:06,600 --> 01:14:09,439 Speaker 3: underlying revenue up eight percent, underlying ebit DAR up twenty 1621 01:14:09,520 --> 01:14:13,080 Speaker 3: nine percent, underlying en PAT up seventy seven percent. They 1622 01:14:13,160 --> 01:14:17,559 Speaker 3: got some cash, I gave you the dibdend. Their revenue 1623 01:14:17,640 --> 01:14:20,920 Speaker 3: market chare boosted the thirty five percent linear television. Total 1624 01:14:20,960 --> 01:14:23,680 Speaker 3: advertising revenue more than doubled, which includes twenty percent from 1625 01:14:23,680 --> 01:14:25,479 Speaker 3: the past, has grown digital segment. Some of this has 1626 01:14:25,520 --> 01:14:27,560 Speaker 3: been enhanced by the fact they went and bought a 1627 01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:29,800 Speaker 3: television channel for a dollar, which tends to be a 1628 01:14:29,840 --> 01:14:32,720 Speaker 3: good deal because the television channel, despite the fact it 1629 01:14:32,800 --> 01:14:35,679 Speaker 3: was in a world of pain, actually did make some money. 1630 01:14:35,720 --> 01:14:36,960 Speaker 3: When you buy it for a dollar, it tends to 1631 01:14:37,120 --> 01:14:39,080 Speaker 3: reflect well in your books. Anyway. The upshot and then 1632 01:14:39,080 --> 01:14:42,080 Speaker 3: they go on about the usual stuff about the Rugby agreement, renewal, 1633 01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:44,479 Speaker 3: Formula one, blah blah blah, a lot of sport, so 1634 01:14:44,640 --> 01:14:47,519 Speaker 3: they seem it seems relatively upbeat, so that's good. It's 1635 01:14:47,520 --> 01:14:51,080 Speaker 3: been a good week for company reports until the in 1636 01:14:51,120 --> 01:14:54,040 Speaker 3: New Zealand, which is the bad news. Loss before taxation 1637 01:14:54,120 --> 01:14:55,479 Speaker 3: of fifty nine million. If you want to make it 1638 01:14:55,560 --> 01:14:57,599 Speaker 3: look better, after tax, it's a loss of forty million. 1639 01:14:58,040 --> 01:15:00,160 Speaker 3: EBIT DARA three hundred and forty seven million. It's the 1640 01:15:00,240 --> 01:15:04,280 Speaker 3: usual thing. Global engine maintenance delays, slower than expected recovery 1641 01:15:04,320 --> 01:15:07,759 Speaker 3: and domestic demand increasing aviation systems cost week in New Zealand, 1642 01:15:07,800 --> 01:15:11,360 Speaker 3: dollar strategic reviews underway. Nickels on the program as in 1643 01:15:11,439 --> 01:15:14,160 Speaker 3: the CEO tomorrow are that strategic review. I've got a 1644 01:15:14,200 --> 01:15:19,000 Speaker 3: few questions around that. No interim dividends being declared. Although 1645 01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:20,880 Speaker 3: I was reading about Rolls Royce this morning, as in 1646 01:15:20,960 --> 01:15:24,719 Speaker 3: the engine makers, and there's share prices up fifteen hundred 1647 01:15:24,720 --> 01:15:27,760 Speaker 3: percent since their new CEO arrived, and there in the 1648 01:15:27,800 --> 01:15:29,880 Speaker 3: golden era. I just don't know that any of their 1649 01:15:29,920 --> 01:15:33,559 Speaker 3: engines have made it our way, which they kind of should. Anyway, 1650 01:15:33,640 --> 01:15:35,519 Speaker 3: we're taking delivery. I'm just looking at the bit I 1651 01:15:35,600 --> 01:15:37,519 Speaker 3: read an account find now, but we're taking delivery of 1652 01:15:37,560 --> 01:15:42,479 Speaker 3: a couple of new seven eight sevens theoretically. So I 1653 01:15:42,520 --> 01:15:46,600 Speaker 3: don't know National Airline losing money. It's just I know 1654 01:15:46,800 --> 01:15:50,760 Speaker 3: their prole I get their problems. But I gave you 1655 01:15:50,840 --> 01:15:54,640 Speaker 3: Etty Yard's profit yesterday. They're making hundreds of millions of 1656 01:15:54,680 --> 01:15:57,640 Speaker 3: dollars profit. Look at Ettyard, look at Emirates, look at Singapore. 1657 01:15:58,280 --> 01:16:02,840 Speaker 3: Aviation is booming, and so in a booming market you 1658 01:16:03,000 --> 01:16:05,800 Speaker 3: can't make money. There's got to be some questions around that. 1659 01:16:06,080 --> 01:16:07,519 Speaker 3: Twenty one minutes away from nine. 1660 01:16:07,880 --> 01:16:11,719 Speaker 1: International Correspondence with ends an eye insurance, peace of mind 1661 01:16:11,800 --> 01:16:12,759 Speaker 1: for New Zealand business. 1662 01:16:13,120 --> 01:16:16,639 Speaker 3: Rob Little morning to you, my friend, good morning. 1663 01:16:16,720 --> 01:16:20,280 Speaker 15: We can't make money from anything. I don't know, but 1664 01:16:20,439 --> 01:16:23,760 Speaker 15: you may be worried about your own country. But there's 1665 01:16:23,840 --> 01:16:24,680 Speaker 15: nothing we can do. 1666 01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:26,519 Speaker 4: But anyway, go on BBC. 1667 01:16:26,760 --> 01:16:28,920 Speaker 3: I can't sort of I can't work out with. So 1668 01:16:29,080 --> 01:16:31,080 Speaker 3: I saw the bit about the bafts, I saw the 1669 01:16:31,160 --> 01:16:34,639 Speaker 3: Turette's thing, I saw the apologies. I saw that even 1670 01:16:34,720 --> 01:16:36,800 Speaker 3: this morning they're still saying they should have done more 1671 01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:38,840 Speaker 3: to stop it happening, or you know, bleep it out 1672 01:16:38,960 --> 01:16:42,880 Speaker 3: or do whatever. How has this become such a thing 1673 01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:44,200 Speaker 3: days on from. 1674 01:16:44,080 --> 01:16:48,639 Speaker 15: The bafters because people are mental, it's the only possible answer. 1675 01:16:49,600 --> 01:16:55,680 Speaker 15: Because people yearn they yearn to be outraged. And so 1676 01:16:56,960 --> 01:17:00,640 Speaker 15: having been told, having the entire audience and perform has 1677 01:17:00,680 --> 01:17:02,080 Speaker 15: been told that there was going to be a guy 1678 01:17:02,200 --> 01:17:05,600 Speaker 15: with two wrecks at the bafter rewards and that he 1679 01:17:05,760 --> 01:17:11,720 Speaker 15: might say something and indeed regularly fairly obnoxious, and it 1680 01:17:11,920 --> 01:17:14,400 Speaker 15: wasn't his fault. He went ahead and did that and 1681 01:17:14,520 --> 01:17:18,000 Speaker 15: said the ed word when two black guys were on stage. 1682 01:17:18,920 --> 01:17:24,240 Speaker 15: And so it's all about intersectionalism, it's all about inclusivity, 1683 01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:28,200 Speaker 15: and it's all about how these two things collapse when 1684 01:17:28,320 --> 01:17:35,000 Speaker 15: reality comes into play. And it's been fascinating, absolutely fascinating. 1685 01:17:35,320 --> 01:17:38,639 Speaker 15: I don't blame the BBC one bit. They got it wrong, 1686 01:17:39,760 --> 01:17:41,519 Speaker 15: but you know, I mean, they should have been a 1687 01:17:41,560 --> 01:17:43,840 Speaker 15: bit more diligent about what they cut out and so on. 1688 01:17:44,200 --> 01:17:47,080 Speaker 15: But that's a small sit. That's not the point. The 1689 01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:53,080 Speaker 15: point is that suddenly, when this disabled guy shouted something 1690 01:17:53,160 --> 01:17:55,920 Speaker 15: out which everyone has been warned he might well do, 1691 01:17:57,760 --> 01:18:02,879 Speaker 15: suddenly one part of the sectional Alliance decides to DeCamp 1692 01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:06,439 Speaker 15: and leave the Intersectional Alliance and say this was racism, 1693 01:18:06,600 --> 01:18:08,360 Speaker 15: systemic racism. 1694 01:18:08,720 --> 01:18:13,639 Speaker 3: Ludicrous BBC count When Hoyle ies watching him this morning, 1695 01:18:14,280 --> 01:18:17,880 Speaker 3: flight Risk is interesting in his involvement of this thing. 1696 01:18:17,960 --> 01:18:19,600 Speaker 3: Doesn't go away, does it with Mandlssohn? 1697 01:18:21,080 --> 01:18:23,560 Speaker 15: No, And it's going to stay around for ages. It 1698 01:18:23,680 --> 01:18:26,719 Speaker 15: may even stay around for the entire duration of Sakir 1699 01:18:26,800 --> 01:18:32,640 Speaker 15: Starmer's tenure, which more and more likely it's looking going 1700 01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:36,240 Speaker 15: to be another four years, you know, three years, because 1701 01:18:36,920 --> 01:18:38,720 Speaker 15: there is no one in the wings to take over 1702 01:18:38,840 --> 01:18:41,840 Speaker 15: from him, not even John Healy. Yeah, it's it's it's 1703 01:18:42,680 --> 01:18:46,680 Speaker 15: it's a problem. I mean, Lindsay Hoyle, I find a 1704 01:18:46,800 --> 01:18:52,160 Speaker 15: difficult and rather annoying character. He's well regarded as a speaker, 1705 01:18:52,680 --> 01:18:56,640 Speaker 15: but it's clear that he has done to the Metropolitan 1706 01:18:56,760 --> 01:19:00,519 Speaker 15: Police the idea that Peter Mandelsson might do a runner, 1707 01:19:00,720 --> 01:19:05,000 Speaker 15: very very quickly indeed, and he's had to apologize for that, 1708 01:19:06,320 --> 01:19:11,920 Speaker 15: and you know this will go on. I think the 1709 01:19:12,600 --> 01:19:15,040 Speaker 15: mood of the moment is tittering in favor of Look, 1710 01:19:15,360 --> 01:19:18,720 Speaker 15: Andrew's been subject to arrest, He's been dragged in, He's 1711 01:19:18,760 --> 01:19:22,200 Speaker 15: been photographed in the back of a car looking ghastly. 1712 01:19:23,080 --> 01:19:26,519 Speaker 15: Why isn't this happening to Mandelssohn And I think there's 1713 01:19:26,560 --> 01:19:29,479 Speaker 15: a bit of police grandstanding going on here, and I 1714 01:19:29,560 --> 01:19:31,240 Speaker 15: think that's what we saw at the weekend. 1715 01:19:31,800 --> 01:19:34,200 Speaker 3: Interesting the chatty Gars thing. Now I can't wake this 1716 01:19:34,280 --> 01:19:37,000 Speaker 3: out this morning. Either it's paused, but it is, but 1717 01:19:37,160 --> 01:19:38,880 Speaker 3: it isn't so is it or isn't it? 1718 01:19:41,600 --> 01:19:44,880 Speaker 15: It's hilarious. I don't think this Steel is going to 1719 01:19:44,920 --> 01:19:47,080 Speaker 15: go ahead. You know, I may be rolled, I may 1720 01:19:47,120 --> 01:19:51,000 Speaker 15: be role mate, and I've made wrong predictions to you before. 1721 01:19:51,360 --> 01:19:54,280 Speaker 15: But I think that this is the latest stage in 1722 01:19:54,400 --> 01:19:58,200 Speaker 15: the government quietly trying to withdraw the take or Steel 1723 01:19:58,720 --> 01:20:02,599 Speaker 15: given the problems rate by the American administration at the moment, 1724 01:20:03,120 --> 01:20:06,599 Speaker 15: but also given the problems which are mounting up daily 1725 01:20:07,960 --> 01:20:12,479 Speaker 15: on the doorstep of Keir Starmer, whether it be the 1726 01:20:12,560 --> 01:20:16,080 Speaker 15: Tragossians actually camping out on the Chagos Islands as they 1727 01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:19,640 Speaker 15: think they have a right to do, Britain telling them 1728 01:20:19,640 --> 01:20:23,400 Speaker 15: they're not allowed to, etcetera, etcetera. It is an appalling 1729 01:20:23,560 --> 01:20:29,240 Speaker 15: mess occasioned entirely by the labor parties and the labor 1730 01:20:29,320 --> 01:20:34,240 Speaker 15: governments wish to decolonize, which is going to be one 1731 01:20:34,280 --> 01:20:36,599 Speaker 15: of those words which fifty years from now we will 1732 01:20:36,680 --> 01:20:38,759 Speaker 15: look back on and cringe. 1733 01:20:39,280 --> 01:20:42,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm looking at a poll. So it's what it's called, 1734 01:20:42,479 --> 01:20:44,920 Speaker 3: tod or whatever it is.

Mate, It's 1740 01:20:56,479 --> 01:20:59,280 Speaker 15: what I said two weeks ago. I think it is real, 1741 01:21:00,000 --> 01:21:02,400 Speaker 15: and I will stick my neck out. I know you 1742 01:21:02,560 --> 01:21:05,200 Speaker 15: like people to call it on this show and then 1743 01:21:05,320 --> 01:21:08,559 Speaker 15: look like idiots the following week.

I mean, I'm sorry, it is 1757 01:21:58,120 --> 01:22:01,800 Speaker 15: really difficult abolished nade to get rid of NATO. You know, 1758 01:22:02,000 --> 01:22:04,360 Speaker 15: don't know them.

Sorry, 1778 01:22:55,560 --> 01:22:57,880 Speaker 3: five minutes is birely okay, but droning on is ghastly. 1779 01:22:58,560 --> 01:22:59,320 Speaker 2: Thank you Ellison. 1780 01:23:01,920 --> 01:23:03,680 Speaker 3: I don't disagree. I couldn't disagree more. 1781 01:23:03,760 --> 01:23:03,960 Speaker 2: Mike. 1782 01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:07,719 Speaker 3: We hosted our son's wedding last weekend. The drinking habits 1783 01:23:07,760 --> 01:23:10,360 Speaker 3: of the twenty to thirties is so different. They chose 1784 01:23:10,439 --> 01:23:12,760 Speaker 3: low car blow sugar drinks. Beer and wine are seen 1785 01:23:12,760 --> 01:23:15,880 Speaker 3: as less healthy. That is true. We're living through it 1786 01:23:15,960 --> 01:23:17,840 Speaker 3: at our place, in terms of not our place, because 1787 01:23:17,840 --> 01:23:20,640 Speaker 3: they've all left, thank god, apart from one anyway. The 1788 01:23:20,680 --> 01:23:22,800 Speaker 3: point being is we're living through the same thing at 1789 01:23:22,840 --> 01:23:26,320 Speaker 3: our place. There is a material shift in the attitude 1790 01:23:26,360 --> 01:23:29,200 Speaker 3: to alcohol in this country. There's absolutely no question about it. 1791 01:23:29,280 --> 01:23:31,200 Speaker 3: There's still a bit of the binge stuff about the place, 1792 01:23:31,840 --> 01:23:35,200 Speaker 3: but in general it is nowhere like it was ten 1793 01:23:35,320 --> 01:23:37,759 Speaker 3: twenty years ago. So when you look at all the numbers, 1794 01:23:37,800 --> 01:23:40,400 Speaker 3: and they're big numbers, they're falls. I mean, businesses that 1795 01:23:40,760 --> 01:23:42,680 Speaker 3: have to deal with a drop of eight percent of 1796 01:23:42,720 --> 01:23:45,720 Speaker 3: anything have got to be worried far less fall of 1797 01:23:45,760 --> 01:23:49,720 Speaker 3: twenty seven percent of anything. The spirits are up. I 1798 01:23:50,600 --> 01:23:55,320 Speaker 3: reckon it's branding. I'm involved in a very offhand sort 1799 01:23:55,320 --> 01:23:59,080 Speaker 3: of way with a gin company and we're doing really well. 1800 01:23:59,160 --> 01:24:00,680 Speaker 3: And I'm not telling you that we're doing really well 1801 01:24:00,720 --> 01:24:02,560 Speaker 3: to sprink it. I don't even think I'm allowed to 1802 01:24:02,600 --> 01:24:05,320 Speaker 3: mention it. The point being, it's about branding. It's the 1803 01:24:05,400 --> 01:24:09,040 Speaker 3: packaging and the delivery of the product is exceptional, and 1804 01:24:09,240 --> 01:24:11,320 Speaker 3: people buy it and we're up. Sales are up and 1805 01:24:11,400 --> 01:24:13,639 Speaker 3: up and up, and so people love it, they vibe 1806 01:24:13,680 --> 01:24:15,600 Speaker 3: it and they feel good about it, and so I 1807 01:24:15,680 --> 01:24:18,280 Speaker 3: think that's the battle. It's not about volume and just. 1808 01:24:18,720 --> 01:24:22,400 Speaker 9: So you're roasting your own beans and now you're distilling 1809 01:24:22,479 --> 01:24:23,360 Speaker 9: your own junif. 1810 01:24:24,200 --> 01:24:27,280 Speaker 3: Not technically distilling my own gym, but I in a 1811 01:24:27,479 --> 01:24:30,280 Speaker 3: very helicopterish type of way. I am involved in the 1812 01:24:30,280 --> 01:24:32,880 Speaker 3: business of gin. At the moment, we drink less than 1813 01:24:32,960 --> 01:24:35,880 Speaker 3: the US, the British, the Australians, the Germans, the French 1814 01:24:35,920 --> 01:24:38,880 Speaker 3: and the Irish. The Irish and the British, I'm not 1815 01:24:38,960 --> 01:24:41,600 Speaker 3: remotely surprised about. But all over the world there is 1816 01:24:41,840 --> 01:24:46,240 Speaker 3: no question there is a material move away from drinking. 1817 01:24:46,280 --> 01:24:49,800 Speaker 3: Habits of hold nine minutes away from nine the. 1818 01:24:50,000 --> 01:24:54,280 Speaker 1: Mike Hosking breakfast with a Vita Retirement Communities News togs 1819 01:24:54,320 --> 01:24:54,719 Speaker 1: had been. 1820 01:24:54,840 --> 01:24:56,560 Speaker 3: We've been talking a lot about success this morning, and 1821 01:24:56,600 --> 01:24:59,120 Speaker 3: if you want to talk successful, Bailey's fifty years now, 1822 01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:01,759 Speaker 3: Bailey's real Estate built a legacy on trust and innovation 1823 01:25:01,880 --> 01:25:04,880 Speaker 3: right across this beautiful country.
