I indulge myself by spending the 31 00:01:31,693 --> 00:01:34,093 Speaker 2: last hour of the show asking for people for advice 32 00:01:34,493 --> 00:01:37,572 Speaker 2: because I was running my first marathon on the weekend 33 00:01:37,693 --> 00:01:39,613 Speaker 2: down in Queenstown on Sydney. 34 00:01:39,733 --> 00:01:42,893 Speaker 3: How good and I ran it? You did? You got 35 00:01:42,932 --> 00:01:44,373 Speaker 3: to the end of the line and that's what you 36 00:01:44,413 --> 00:01:44,973 Speaker 3: always said. 37 00:01:45,212 --> 00:01:48,813 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, so I thought the best way to describe it. 38 00:01:48,813 --> 00:01:50,573 Speaker 2: A lot of people asking me to describe how the 39 00:01:50,613 --> 00:01:56,293 Speaker 2: marathon went. So my lovely partner, partner Tracy, she filmed 40 00:01:56,293 --> 00:01:58,653 Speaker 2: a lot of it and she put a little video up. 41 00:01:59,253 --> 00:02:01,293 Speaker 2: You can actually watch that at mett Heath in zed 42 00:02:01,413 --> 00:02:03,933 Speaker 2: on my Instagram. But I thought i'd read her analysis 43 00:02:03,973 --> 00:02:04,493 Speaker 2: of the race. 44 00:02:04,573 --> 00:02:05,413 Speaker 3: Okay, this is good. 45 00:02:05,533 --> 00:02:08,733 Speaker 2: Okay, we arrived at the start line two minute before 46 00:02:08,773 --> 00:02:11,773 Speaker 2: the race began. Stress was high. Yeah, we messed that. 47 00:02:11,773 --> 00:02:13,413 Speaker 3: Up two minutes before making it. 48 00:02:13,533 --> 00:02:17,453 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know. Preparation has not been on point over 49 00:02:17,453 --> 00:02:22,373 Speaker 2: the past month. As we arrived, Matt googled when should 50 00:02:22,413 --> 00:02:26,373 Speaker 2: I have my energy gels. Gels were then discovered to 51 00:02:26,413 --> 00:02:30,973 Speaker 2: have been left at home. But despite all that and 52 00:02:31,293 --> 00:02:33,732 Speaker 2: me thinking I should pre book a Saint John's ambulance 53 00:02:33,733 --> 00:02:36,333 Speaker 2: for the thirty killing me to mark, my guy smashed 54 00:02:36,333 --> 00:02:39,293 Speaker 2: his first marathon. At one point, as I handed him 55 00:02:39,293 --> 00:02:42,213 Speaker 2: a poweraide and shoved loies into his pocket, I thought 56 00:02:42,213 --> 00:02:45,333 Speaker 2: his soul had actually departed his earth this earthly plane. 57 00:02:45,933 --> 00:02:47,773 Speaker 2: But he made it to the finish line with minimal 58 00:02:47,853 --> 00:02:51,773 Speaker 2: chafing and cleanish pants. Emboldened by his brave defeat of 59 00:02:51,853 --> 00:02:54,973 Speaker 2: the marathon demons, he won't shut up about it. He 60 00:02:55,133 --> 00:02:57,613 Speaker 2: has been taken to holding out his hand in silent 61 00:02:57,653 --> 00:03:00,653 Speaker 2: demand when he wants something. I fear I now am 62 00:03:00,773 --> 00:03:01,813 Speaker 2: a marathon whag. 63 00:03:02,693 --> 00:03:06,293 Speaker 3: Yeah, so that is beautifully written and well described. 64 00:03:06,413 --> 00:03:11,213 Speaker 2: Thank you so much for your support Tracy on the marathon. 65 00:03:11,252 --> 00:03:13,692 Speaker 2: But like so, I started the marathon, and as I said, 66 00:03:13,693 --> 00:03:16,213 Speaker 2: I wasn't prepared and people said, run super slow at 67 00:03:16,213 --> 00:03:18,613 Speaker 2: the start. Yeah, what I did was I ran super 68 00:03:18,653 --> 00:03:20,613 Speaker 2: slow at the start, super slow in the middle, and 69 00:03:20,653 --> 00:03:23,173 Speaker 2: super slow at the I think I might ran too 70 00:03:23,213 --> 00:03:25,573 Speaker 2: slow and spent too much time on my feet. But 71 00:03:25,653 --> 00:03:27,333 Speaker 2: I never would have made it if it wasn't for 72 00:03:27,373 --> 00:03:30,493 Speaker 2: the help of this guardian angel. Her name was Kate 73 00:03:30,532 --> 00:03:33,373 Speaker 2: from Clyde, and I met her on the run and 74 00:03:33,493 --> 00:03:35,533 Speaker 2: I was running with her for a very long time, 75 00:03:36,213 --> 00:03:38,093 Speaker 2: and she just had everything because I didn't have my 76 00:03:38,253 --> 00:03:40,813 Speaker 2: energy jails. So she said to me, when we're running 77 00:03:40,813 --> 00:03:43,013 Speaker 2: loong and you're taking your energy jails, you need to 78 00:03:43,013 --> 00:03:44,853 Speaker 2: take one every half hour. And then she had them 79 00:03:44,853 --> 00:03:47,693 Speaker 2: and she was just handed me in owl. She managed 80 00:03:47,733 --> 00:03:49,893 Speaker 2: my time because she was running the timing in the ears. 81 00:03:50,613 --> 00:03:52,733 Speaker 2: She managed my energy jails. And at one point I 82 00:03:52,733 --> 00:03:55,133 Speaker 2: said to her, I said, Kate from Clyde, I've got 83 00:03:55,173 --> 00:03:58,573 Speaker 2: a saw tummy and quick as a flash. She goes, 84 00:03:58,613 --> 00:04:00,373 Speaker 2: I'm a mum and she has quick as if fast. 85 00:04:00,533 --> 00:04:02,253 Speaker 2: She whipped out an antesseine and gave it to me. 86 00:04:02,413 --> 00:04:05,133 Speaker 2: Kate from Clyde, Kate Faint Clyde was running along with 87 00:04:05,213 --> 00:04:09,293 Speaker 2: this full operation. She had everything organized. Without her, I 88 00:04:09,333 --> 00:04:10,573 Speaker 2: never would have made it to the end. 89 00:04:10,773 --> 00:04:12,773 Speaker 3: Do you think that was some sort of hallucination When 90 00:04:12,813 --> 00:04:15,853 Speaker 3: you need it the most, that's Kate from Clyde was 91 00:04:15,973 --> 00:04:18,493 Speaker 3: just someone that you needed there. But she didn't really exist. 92 00:04:18,773 --> 00:04:18,933 Speaker 5: Yeah. 93 00:04:18,973 --> 00:04:21,253 Speaker 2: I was talking on a podcast about it this morning 94 00:04:21,613 --> 00:04:23,853 Speaker 2: and someone was suggesting it might be like the end 95 00:04:23,853 --> 00:04:25,133 Speaker 2: of Fight Club when you see that. I was just 96 00:04:25,213 --> 00:04:28,533 Speaker 2: running along, completely delirious, talking to no one but no 97 00:04:29,373 --> 00:04:31,653 Speaker 2: Kate from Clyde, Great New Zealander. In fact, their name 98 00:04:31,693 --> 00:04:34,653 Speaker 2: is Kate Goodfellow. If she messaged me after the rates 99 00:04:35,133 --> 00:04:37,053 Speaker 2: last night, she got me home. So I got home 100 00:04:37,053 --> 00:04:39,293 Speaker 2: with the help of Kate and Tracy. Thank you so much. 101 00:04:39,693 --> 00:04:43,813 Speaker 2: But what an experience. Finished the marathon. But being the 102 00:04:43,893 --> 00:04:46,693 Speaker 2: psychologically damaged person I am, I immediately thought, I need 103 00:04:46,693 --> 00:04:49,773 Speaker 2: to run a marathon again, but do it better. So 104 00:04:50,413 --> 00:04:53,333 Speaker 2: I'm going to do another one and take the lessons 105 00:04:53,333 --> 00:04:56,333 Speaker 2: I learned on this one and run a bitter marathon. 106 00:04:56,533 --> 00:04:57,453 Speaker 3: That's a good attitude. 107 00:04:57,493 --> 00:04:59,293 Speaker 2: But I finished, and I was worried I wouldn't be 108 00:04:59,293 --> 00:05:01,053 Speaker 2: able to finish it. So I ran a marathon. So 109 00:05:01,253 --> 00:05:03,293 Speaker 2: I'm willing to slightly pat myself on the back for that. 110 00:05:03,533 --> 00:05:04,333 Speaker 3: Got the job done. 111 00:05:04,373 --> 00:05:05,893 Speaker 2: But I got to be better. 112 00:05:06,093 --> 00:05:08,053 Speaker 3: Yeah, when's the next one?

So it quotes this one woman, Ashley Tarbor, 178 00:07:38,053 --> 00:07:40,733 Speaker 3: and she said they've found the law people, local dating 179 00:07:40,813 --> 00:07:45,333 Speaker 3: culture overly relaxed, with few men showing real initiative or vulnerability. 180 00:07:45,813 --> 00:07:47,933 Speaker 3: In effect, she's left the country. She's had enough of 181 00:07:47,973 --> 00:07:52,693 Speaker 3: what she calls the easy going social norms of Kiwi men, 182 00:07:52,853 --> 00:07:54,013 Speaker 3: and she's gone to Australia. 183 00:07:54,653 --> 00:07:57,933 Speaker 2: Yes, so key, we men useless at dating eight hundred 184 00:07:57,933 --> 00:07:59,973 Speaker 2: and eighty ten eighty or we just down to earth 185 00:08:00,133 --> 00:08:03,813 Speaker 2: and no fuss, you know. And look, this is the 186 00:08:03,893 --> 00:08:06,053 Speaker 2: question that i'd ask if someone that's saying that Kiwi 187 00:08:06,173 --> 00:08:08,213 Speaker 2: men are bad at dating. If you struggle to find 188 00:08:08,213 --> 00:08:09,933 Speaker 2: some what is it because the options are bad or 189 00:08:10,013 --> 00:08:11,333 Speaker 2: is it because you are a bad option? 190 00:08:11,493 --> 00:08:13,933 Speaker 3: Yep, looking forward to that after three o'clock. After two o'clock, 191 00:08:14,093 --> 00:08:16,493 Speaker 3: new researchers sound in the alarm. This is when it 192 00:08:16,493 --> 00:08:19,653 Speaker 3: comes to screen time. So Ossie children average around six 193 00:08:19,693 --> 00:08:22,173 Speaker 3: hours of recreational screen time a day. The key we 194 00:08:22,253 --> 00:08:24,693 Speaker 3: children aren't far behind that. It's a habit that experts 195 00:08:24,733 --> 00:08:28,893 Speaker 3: warn is seriously undermining their cognitive development, physical health and wellbeing. 196 00:08:29,133 --> 00:08:32,093 Speaker 3: The line is that it is making them dumber and sicker, 197 00:08:32,133 --> 00:08:33,813 Speaker 3: and toddlers are most at risk. 198 00:08:34,093 --> 00:08:36,973 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. So people are saying more and more 199 00:08:37,053 --> 00:08:39,693 Speaker 2: that your kids being bored is the absolute best thing 200 00:08:39,852 --> 00:08:42,932 Speaker 2: for them. And you know, putting them in front of 201 00:08:42,973 --> 00:08:45,612 Speaker 2: an iPad with their headphones on at the supermarket is 202 00:08:45,813 --> 00:08:47,653 Speaker 2: not the best thing for them because they're not bad, 203 00:08:47,693 --> 00:08:49,612 Speaker 2: and not only that, it's making them dumber. 204 00:08:49,773 --> 00:08:51,453 Speaker 3: Yeah, which is concerning. 205 00:08:51,053 --> 00:08:52,853 Speaker 2: Isn't it, Because no parent wants to make their kids 206 00:08:52,892 --> 00:08:55,172 Speaker 2: get dumber and very few parents want to damage their kids. 207 00:08:55,252 --> 00:08:55,412 Speaker 6: Right. 208 00:08:56,213 --> 00:08:58,612 Speaker 2: So the question is when is it too early for 209 00:08:58,732 --> 00:09:01,093 Speaker 2: any kind of screen time with your kids? And people 210 00:09:01,093 --> 00:09:03,612 Speaker 2: will push back and say, look, for the longest time 211 00:09:03,813 --> 00:09:08,493 Speaker 2: people have been accusing people have using TVs as babysitters. Know, 212 00:09:08,533 --> 00:09:10,773 Speaker 2: that was the thing when I was a kid, babysitter 213 00:09:11,012 --> 00:09:18,132 Speaker 2: TV babysitting, But I don't know when it's so hard 214 00:09:17,732 --> 00:09:19,973 Speaker 2: for kids now. I think that part of the ism 215 00:09:19,973 --> 00:09:23,852 Speaker 2: we'll go into this later is not more siblings because 216 00:09:24,333 --> 00:09:26,773 Speaker 2: two conds that are about the same age and they 217 00:09:26,852 --> 00:09:29,532 Speaker 2: were always playing with each other. Yep, so we didn't 218 00:09:29,773 --> 00:09:32,333 Speaker 2: need to use the iPad babysitter as much. 219 00:09:32,372 --> 00:09:34,013 Speaker 3: Definitely they make up their own games. But that is 220 00:09:34,012 --> 00:09:36,573 Speaker 3: after two o'clock. Looking forward to that, because right now, 221 00:09:36,813 --> 00:09:39,252 Speaker 3: let's have a chat about is their room for another 222 00:09:39,333 --> 00:09:43,373 Speaker 3: party in our politics?

Was it through Seek? Or did you 276 00:12:16,252 --> 00:12:16,613 Speaker 2: seek it? 277 00:12:16,653 --> 00:12:17,093 Speaker 9: Out. 278 00:12:17,732 --> 00:12:21,252 Speaker 7: I was actually on the newsletter mailing list. 279 00:12:21,492 --> 00:12:24,133 Speaker 8: I wasn't a member, but was, you know, watching the 280 00:12:24,173 --> 00:12:27,013 Speaker 8: party and keeping up with what they're doing. So I 281 00:12:27,053 --> 00:12:29,772 Speaker 8: found out about it that way and reached out pretty 282 00:12:29,813 --> 00:12:33,133 Speaker 8: much straight away to learn a bit more. Being a 283 00:12:33,132 --> 00:12:37,852 Speaker 8: politician wasn't always on my radar, but I definitely had 284 00:12:37,892 --> 00:12:41,693 Speaker 8: come across the need for more structural change in my 285 00:12:41,973 --> 00:12:45,132 Speaker 8: professional career and I thought this would be a really 286 00:12:45,132 --> 00:12:48,892 Speaker 8: good opportunity. Excuse the pun to give it a crack. 287 00:12:50,053 --> 00:12:53,132 Speaker 2: So you hadn't been a fan of the Opportunities Party 288 00:12:53,213 --> 00:12:55,413 Speaker 2: before the opportunity came up to be part of the 289 00:12:55,453 --> 00:12:57,053 Speaker 2: Opportunity Party, if you see what I'm saying. 290 00:12:57,933 --> 00:13:01,413 Speaker 8: I definitely followed them and I have voted for them previously. Okay, 291 00:13:01,852 --> 00:13:03,813 Speaker 8: I think like I think, like lots of Kiwi's, I 292 00:13:03,892 --> 00:13:07,413 Speaker 8: kind of observed politics a little bit from afar. It 293 00:13:07,453 --> 00:13:13,132 Speaker 8: doesn't always look like the most appealing industry to get into, 294 00:13:13,852 --> 00:13:16,293 Speaker 8: but I felt like this was really the time for 295 00:13:16,372 --> 00:13:19,733 Speaker 8: me personally, and it feels like New Zealand really needs 296 00:13:19,732 --> 00:13:21,053 Speaker 8: something like this as well. 297 00:13:21,732 --> 00:13:24,053 Speaker 2: As being the boss of the Opportunities Party. Is it 298 00:13:24,053 --> 00:13:27,053 Speaker 2: a paid gig and if so, who's funding your party. 299 00:13:28,533 --> 00:13:32,573 Speaker 8: So yeah, I'm really fortunate that this role is paid. 300 00:13:33,213 --> 00:13:37,693 Speaker 8: So we've got donations from members and yeah, I'm really 301 00:13:37,693 --> 00:13:39,813 Speaker 8: grateful because I don't think I would be able to 302 00:13:40,012 --> 00:13:43,773 Speaker 8: take twelve months out of work to do something like this. 303 00:13:43,892 --> 00:13:46,253 Speaker 7: So super grateful for that opportunity. 304 00:13:46,892 --> 00:13:49,293 Speaker 3: And So the big policy pitch that you'll put forward 305 00:13:49,333 --> 00:13:52,173 Speaker 3: so far, it's around tax. Right, So you've talked about 306 00:13:52,173 --> 00:13:55,093 Speaker 3: this idea of the citizens Income which will be paid 307 00:13:55,132 --> 00:13:57,453 Speaker 3: for via a land value tax. Is that right? 308 00:13:58,573 --> 00:14:00,413 Speaker 8: Yeah, yep, So it's part of a package with the 309 00:14:00,453 --> 00:14:02,173 Speaker 8: land value tax and the flat tax rate. 310 00:14:03,053 --> 00:14:05,372 Speaker 3: And so how does the citizens income work walk us 311 00:14:05,372 --> 00:14:07,773 Speaker 3: through that? How does it differ from a universal basic income? 312 00:14:08,612 --> 00:14:12,293 Speaker 8: Yeah, so it's similar and that almost all adults get 313 00:14:12,453 --> 00:14:16,973 Speaker 8: paid an amount each week. It's a little bit different 314 00:14:16,973 --> 00:14:19,573 Speaker 8: from a universal basic income, and that we will have 315 00:14:19,813 --> 00:14:23,052 Speaker 8: a tapering off for really high income earners so they 316 00:14:23,053 --> 00:14:27,172 Speaker 8: won't receive it, and that gets paid regardless, So no 317 00:14:27,253 --> 00:14:30,733 Speaker 8: more having to kind of fill informs all the kind 318 00:14:30,773 --> 00:14:34,933 Speaker 8: of bureaucracy and paperwork that goes with that. We believe 319 00:14:35,133 --> 00:14:39,053 Speaker 8: that the simplicity of a kind of broad citizens income 320 00:14:39,413 --> 00:14:43,013 Speaker 8: will remove a lot of that administration burden. So that 321 00:14:43,053 --> 00:14:46,412 Speaker 8: we can actually put tax dollar tax dollars to good use. 322 00:14:46,773 --> 00:14:52,773 Speaker 2: And what's the motivation for this citizen's payment. What is 323 00:14:52,813 --> 00:14:54,533 Speaker 2: it solving, What are the problems that it solves. 324 00:14:55,293 --> 00:14:58,253 Speaker 8: Yeah, so it really provides stability and security for all 325 00:14:58,293 --> 00:15:01,453 Speaker 8: New Zealanders. I mean, if you think about the hundreds 326 00:15:01,533 --> 00:15:04,253 Speaker 8: thousands of people that have lost jobs in the last 327 00:15:04,293 --> 00:15:07,733 Speaker 8: couple of years, pretty much everyone I talk to has 328 00:15:07,853 --> 00:15:12,173 Speaker 8: been through some kind of redundancy process. There's nothing really 329 00:15:12,213 --> 00:15:14,373 Speaker 8: at the moment unless you know they've been able to 330 00:15:14,453 --> 00:15:17,653 Speaker 8: save and have a kind of rainy day fund, something 331 00:15:17,693 --> 00:15:20,453 Speaker 8: like a citizen's income. Make sure that we can support 332 00:15:20,493 --> 00:15:23,293 Speaker 8: those people through tough times that they don't have to 333 00:15:23,333 --> 00:15:25,893 Speaker 8: take just any job that comes along. They could go 334 00:15:25,933 --> 00:15:27,653 Speaker 8: and do some upskilling. 335 00:15:27,253 --> 00:15:29,813 Speaker 7: And maybe land another dream job. 336 00:15:30,893 --> 00:15:33,813 Speaker 8: If you also think about people who you know, we've 337 00:15:33,853 --> 00:15:36,773 Speaker 8: got a lot of amazing entrepreneurs and innovators in this country. 338 00:15:37,253 --> 00:15:39,893 Speaker 8: It gives them a little bit more breathing space and 339 00:15:40,053 --> 00:15:43,333 Speaker 8: time to maybe turn that idea into a business as well. 340 00:15:43,893 --> 00:15:46,773 Speaker 8: So I think there's a lot of great benefits for 341 00:15:47,373 --> 00:15:50,013 Speaker 8: different pockets of society, which is exciting. 342 00:15:50,533 --> 00:15:52,253 Speaker 2: Yeah, you say that it could be a motivation for 343 00:15:52,293 --> 00:15:56,133 Speaker 2: people but isn't the biggest complaint people or criticism people 344 00:15:56,213 --> 00:16:00,413 Speaker 2: have of the idea of universal basic incomes is that 345 00:16:00,493 --> 00:16:04,093 Speaker 2: it takes motivation away from people. Won't eighteen year olds 346 00:16:04,093 --> 00:16:06,613 Speaker 2: just delay life while they sit on the UBI? 347 00:16:07,613 --> 00:16:07,893 Speaker 7: Yeah? 348 00:16:08,573 --> 00:16:12,813 Speaker 8: Look like we're a country of fairness. Kiwis like fenness, 349 00:16:12,893 --> 00:16:15,933 Speaker 8: and that is totally a value that is important to 350 00:16:16,053 --> 00:16:18,453 Speaker 8: us as a party as well. But I think we 351 00:16:18,493 --> 00:16:20,493 Speaker 8: also have to look at the current system. I mean, 352 00:16:20,813 --> 00:16:24,172 Speaker 8: the way that works is people are actually disincentivized from 353 00:16:24,213 --> 00:16:27,293 Speaker 8: looking for work. If you're receiving a benefit and you 354 00:16:27,373 --> 00:16:30,333 Speaker 8: go out and get some part time work, the way 355 00:16:30,333 --> 00:16:32,133 Speaker 8: our tax system works at the moment is you could 356 00:16:32,173 --> 00:16:34,493 Speaker 8: be taxed up to ninety percent on that work, so 357 00:16:34,533 --> 00:16:37,413 Speaker 8: you're maybe effectively taking home a few dollars an hour. 358 00:16:38,773 --> 00:16:40,292 Speaker 7: I think if I was an eighteen. 359 00:16:40,093 --> 00:16:43,493 Speaker 8: Year old at the moment, I wouldn't be very motivated 360 00:16:43,533 --> 00:16:45,052 Speaker 8: to go out to get a second job if from 361 00:16:45,053 --> 00:16:46,333 Speaker 8: taking home five dollars an hour. 362 00:16:47,893 --> 00:16:49,973 Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess, But I mean that's the time to 363 00:16:50,013 --> 00:16:52,932 Speaker 2: be poor, isn't it when you're young? And I get that, 364 00:16:53,053 --> 00:16:55,093 Speaker 2: but also I guess the question is then who pays 365 00:16:55,133 --> 00:16:55,412 Speaker 2: for it? 366 00:16:56,653 --> 00:16:56,893 Speaker 7: Yeah? 367 00:16:56,933 --> 00:16:59,493 Speaker 8: So that's why This is part of a three pronged 368 00:16:59,573 --> 00:17:04,413 Speaker 8: tax reset. The land value tax that we're proposing would 369 00:17:04,533 --> 00:17:08,133 Speaker 8: offset the cost of the citizen's income. And what's I 370 00:17:08,133 --> 00:17:11,613 Speaker 8: think interesting to note is the citizens income would replace 371 00:17:11,653 --> 00:17:15,493 Speaker 8: both the jobs that could benefit and superannuation. So the 372 00:17:15,613 --> 00:17:18,413 Speaker 8: challenges we're talking about, which are very topical as a 373 00:17:18,453 --> 00:17:20,613 Speaker 8: country right now, how are we going to pay for 374 00:17:21,093 --> 00:17:25,413 Speaker 8: the increase in cost of super? This is a potential solution. 375 00:17:25,133 --> 00:17:29,613 Speaker 3: To that, right, So, reaching or breaching the five percent 376 00:17:29,653 --> 00:17:32,213 Speaker 3: three shold. I know you genuinely believe you can do that, 377 00:17:32,373 --> 00:17:34,333 Speaker 3: but that is an incredibly hard ass, right. I mean, 378 00:17:34,373 --> 00:17:37,453 Speaker 3: there's been multiple iterations of the Opportunities Party, it's now 379 00:17:37,453 --> 00:17:41,253 Speaker 3: called the Opportunity Party, but the best it's ever done 380 00:17:41,293 --> 00:17:44,413 Speaker 3: is two point seven percent. So realistically, how do you 381 00:17:44,413 --> 00:17:46,292 Speaker 3: think your chances are going to go to breach that 382 00:17:46,333 --> 00:17:46,853 Speaker 3: five percent? 383 00:17:47,853 --> 00:17:50,213 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, I'm not kidding myself. 384 00:17:50,373 --> 00:17:52,733 Speaker 8: I know that this is you know, it's a hard ask, 385 00:17:52,813 --> 00:17:57,213 Speaker 8: It's a very big mountain to climb, but it definitely 386 00:17:57,333 --> 00:18:01,333 Speaker 8: for me anyway, feels like the time has never been 387 00:18:01,453 --> 00:18:04,613 Speaker 8: clearer that we need a party that is offering something new. 388 00:18:05,333 --> 00:18:08,053 Speaker 8: I can't see any inspiring visions coming out of the 389 00:18:08,093 --> 00:18:11,853 Speaker 8: current political landscape. So we're really backing the fact that 390 00:18:11,893 --> 00:18:15,053 Speaker 8: we've got an aspiring vision that we are making this 391 00:18:15,133 --> 00:18:18,693 Speaker 8: campaign all about connecting with kiwis and helping them, you know, 392 00:18:18,813 --> 00:18:23,893 Speaker 8: understand what this means for their everyday lives. And we'll 393 00:18:23,933 --> 00:18:26,333 Speaker 8: you know, we'll have some awesome candidates throughout the country 394 00:18:26,373 --> 00:18:30,813 Speaker 8: representing our message. I'm hoping that maybe me stepping into 395 00:18:30,813 --> 00:18:33,853 Speaker 8: this role inspires other people that have not thought about 396 00:18:33,853 --> 00:18:39,053 Speaker 8: politics to maybe get involved. And yeah, I mean it's 397 00:18:39,053 --> 00:18:40,853 Speaker 8: only one hundred and fifty thousand votes. 398 00:18:40,693 --> 00:18:41,333 Speaker 7: Not that much. 399 00:18:42,013 --> 00:18:44,292 Speaker 2: So would you put money on your making it and 400 00:18:44,973 --> 00:18:47,573 Speaker 2: would you drop a cool hundred or a cool thousand 401 00:18:47,613 --> 00:18:49,613 Speaker 2: on you making it to the five percent threshold? 402 00:18:51,213 --> 00:18:53,413 Speaker 7: I'm backing one hundred percent, all right, so. 403 00:18:53,413 --> 00:18:58,253 Speaker 2: A thousand is yeah, okay, all right, but no word 404 00:18:58,253 --> 00:18:58,853 Speaker 2: on the cats. 405 00:18:58,973 --> 00:19:03,493 Speaker 8: I mean, I'm definitely you know, I've sacrificed a few things. 406 00:19:03,573 --> 00:19:05,933 Speaker 8: I will be sacrificing a few things over the next 407 00:19:06,013 --> 00:19:09,213 Speaker 8: twelve months to do this work. But I wouldn't do 408 00:19:09,253 --> 00:19:11,933 Speaker 8: it if I didn't truly believe and if I didn't 409 00:19:11,973 --> 00:19:12,773 Speaker 8: think it was worth it. 410 00:19:12,933 --> 00:19:15,933 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, a Qi Lee, all the very best to 411 00:19:16,013 --> 00:19:18,333 Speaker 3: you going forward. I'm sure we'll be chatting to you 412 00:19:18,373 --> 00:19:20,653 Speaker 3: a bit more as the election approaches, but all the. 413 00:19:20,653 --> 00:19:23,093 Speaker 7: Very best, awesome, thanks so much. 414 00:19:23,173 --> 00:19:26,893 Speaker 3: That is Qla Wong, the new leader of the Opportunity Party, 415 00:19:27,293 --> 00:19:29,053 Speaker 3: So keen to get your thoughts on eight hundred and 416 00:19:29,093 --> 00:19:31,373 Speaker 3: eighty ten eighty and also what sort of party would 417 00:19:31,373 --> 00:19:33,493 Speaker 3: you like to see? Who's not in Parliament at the moment? 418 00:19:33,853 --> 00:19:35,973 Speaker 3: Come on through, it is twenty seven past one. 419 00:19:36,773 --> 00:19:39,013 Speaker 2: She's she's already quite a good politician because she wouldn't 420 00:19:39,013 --> 00:19:41,733 Speaker 2: answer the cat's question. Yeah right, Afroest that's the first question. 421 00:19:41,853 --> 00:19:43,733 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, your name, that was an easy one. 422 00:19:43,933 --> 00:19:46,173 Speaker 2: All right, what do you think one hundred and eighty 423 00:19:46,333 --> 00:19:48,413 Speaker 2: ten eighty or is there another kind of party that 424 00:19:48,453 --> 00:19:50,133 Speaker 2: you would want to pop up that you could vote for? 425 00:19:51,413 --> 00:19:55,093 Speaker 4: The headlines and the hard questions, it's the mic asking 426 00:19:55,133 --> 00:19:56,133 Speaker 4: Breakfast to say for. 427 00:19:56,213 --> 00:19:59,133 Speaker 2: Beef, it goes back to what do we know? 428 00:19:59,253 --> 00:20:02,133 Speaker 10: So it goes back to before the fifteen percent was 429 00:20:02,173 --> 00:20:05,213 Speaker 10: put on. So for us, it will be the equivalent 430 00:20:05,253 --> 00:20:08,293 Speaker 10: of than the most favor nation status, which is very low. 431 00:20:08,333 --> 00:20:09,453 Speaker 11: It's less than one percent, so. 432 00:20:09,453 --> 00:20:11,853 Speaker 10: It really means a very level playing field with every 433 00:20:11,853 --> 00:20:14,333 Speaker 10: other beef and porter in the world are the same 434 00:20:14,453 --> 00:20:17,453 Speaker 10: tariff rate that Australia faces. The only difference there is 435 00:20:17,453 --> 00:20:19,893 Speaker 10: from memory, Brazil faced about a forty percent tariff, so 436 00:20:20,373 --> 00:20:22,693 Speaker 10: you know we are more competitive than them. When does 437 00:20:22,693 --> 00:20:25,373 Speaker 10: it start, my understandings, it started already on the moment 438 00:20:25,453 --> 00:20:28,573 Speaker 10: that the announcement was made just to tay her two ago. 439 00:20:29,093 --> 00:20:31,853 Speaker 2: Back tomorrow at six am the Mike Hosking Breakfast with 440 00:20:31,893 --> 00:20:34,773 Speaker 2: Mayley's Real Estate News Talk ZEB very good afternoon. 441 00:20:34,853 --> 00:20:36,853 Speaker 3: She it is twenty nine to two. What sort of 442 00:20:36,853 --> 00:20:38,733 Speaker 3: party would you like to see in Parliament? On the 443 00:20:38,773 --> 00:20:42,133 Speaker 3: back of the Opportunity Party rebranding sounds. 444 00:20:41,853 --> 00:20:43,853 Speaker 2: Like she's just taken a job because she needed one 445 00:20:44,013 --> 00:20:46,573 Speaker 2: and doesn't expect to be in parliament. The policy sounds 446 00:20:46,573 --> 00:20:49,453 Speaker 2: as deluded as the Green policy Land text you're dreaming. 447 00:20:49,933 --> 00:20:51,693 Speaker 2: You know what, I don't think that's true, whether you 448 00:20:51,733 --> 00:20:54,293 Speaker 2: agree with her or not in her policies. I think 449 00:20:54,333 --> 00:20:58,213 Speaker 2: that she genuinely believes in what she's saying, and I 450 00:20:58,253 --> 00:21:02,573 Speaker 2: think that she's she's a motivated and well spoken leader 451 00:21:02,573 --> 00:21:06,853 Speaker 2: of the party. Qla wog. I think I'm quite impressed 452 00:21:06,853 --> 00:21:09,693 Speaker 2: with I mean, I was shot that she went so 453 00:21:10,093 --> 00:21:12,053 Speaker 2: aggressively on the first question about cats. 454 00:21:12,413 --> 00:21:14,573 Speaker 3: Yeah, she's obviously it's a nerve the old cat question 455 00:21:14,613 --> 00:21:15,093 Speaker 3: when it comes to the. 456 00:21:15,053 --> 00:21:17,413 Speaker 2: Opportunity decided she wanted to make an enemy of me there, 457 00:21:18,053 --> 00:21:22,813 Speaker 2: but I she did coming hot well, but good on it. Ye, yes, 458 00:21:22,853 --> 00:21:25,133 Speaker 2: she wants to knock a media wounder on his back 459 00:21:25,173 --> 00:21:27,733 Speaker 2: on the first question, and you know, start a lifetime 460 00:21:27,733 --> 00:21:30,253 Speaker 2: for you. Then good on it. But I think I 461 00:21:30,293 --> 00:21:31,933 Speaker 2: think there's no doubt if you listen to her that 462 00:21:32,013 --> 00:21:37,613 Speaker 2: she she's passionate about about the party and believes that 463 00:21:37,373 --> 00:21:39,973 Speaker 2: that this new way of thinking is the way for it. 464 00:21:40,173 --> 00:21:43,013 Speaker 3: Yeah, or she's certainly made or the party's made some 465 00:21:43,013 --> 00:21:47,013 Speaker 3: big policy announcements. So this text us talks about the 466 00:21:47,053 --> 00:21:50,453 Speaker 3: UBI get a. Guys, does that replace the benefit? But 467 00:21:50,533 --> 00:21:53,053 Speaker 3: everybody gets it. So if you choose to work, you 468 00:21:53,093 --> 00:21:56,733 Speaker 3: have a better life than incapable of simply bone idle people. 469 00:21:56,973 --> 00:21:59,973 Speaker 3: Sounds good to me. But where's the motivation to actually 470 00:22:00,013 --> 00:22:02,773 Speaker 3: stay working? And that is a big question around around 471 00:22:02,773 --> 00:22:05,373 Speaker 3: the universe. Will basically income It's been floated for some time. 472 00:22:06,173 --> 00:22:08,813 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I thank you for it to work and 473 00:22:08,853 --> 00:22:11,053 Speaker 2: I don't have to look up. But the idea is 474 00:22:11,093 --> 00:22:13,773 Speaker 2: that you get rid of everything. So there is no 475 00:22:13,973 --> 00:22:17,973 Speaker 2: other there's no other benefits and so everyone gets it 476 00:22:18,293 --> 00:22:21,253 Speaker 2: in the univers will basic income as it has been 477 00:22:22,173 --> 00:22:24,613 Speaker 2: fillatted by people like Andrew Yang. Everyone gets it right 478 00:22:24,653 --> 00:22:27,413 Speaker 2: from the top to the bottom. Yes, And the complain 479 00:22:27,493 --> 00:22:31,373 Speaker 2: about that is it's you know, giving the doll to billionaires, 480 00:22:31,453 --> 00:22:33,893 Speaker 2: right and millionaires. But I think they have a cap 481 00:22:34,053 --> 00:22:37,653 Speaker 2: at the opportunity party on it. But yeah, yeah, I 482 00:22:37,693 --> 00:22:41,973 Speaker 2: mean you can't be you can't be you know, multiplying 483 00:22:42,013 --> 00:22:45,213 Speaker 2: your benefits. Yeah, And I think they look at it 484 00:22:45,253 --> 00:22:47,933 Speaker 2: being about the same as the work secer. Yeah, I'm 485 00:22:47,933 --> 00:22:50,333 Speaker 2: not sure. I can see an eighteen year old just 486 00:22:50,533 --> 00:22:53,413 Speaker 2: not doing anything and not following and just sitting around 487 00:22:53,453 --> 00:22:55,733 Speaker 2: doing nothing because they can get that. Yeah, potentially, I 488 00:22:55,733 --> 00:22:58,093 Speaker 2: don't know, what do you think. One hundred eighteen. 489 00:22:57,813 --> 00:23:00,453 Speaker 3: Eighty nine two niney two is the text number headlines 490 00:23:00,493 --> 00:23:02,493 Speaker 3: hot on our tail, but love to hear from you. 491 00:23:02,933 --> 00:23:05,013 Speaker 3: Eight hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number. 492 00:23:07,013 --> 00:23:11,373 Speaker 12: News Talk said with blue bubble taxis it's no trouble 493 00:23:11,413 --> 00:23:13,933 Speaker 12: with a blue bubble.

I'm back to matt Ethan 513 00:24:23,733 --> 00:24:24,453 Speaker 12: Tyler Adams. 514 00:24:24,453 --> 00:24:26,293 Speaker 3: Thank you very much. Railey. So we're talking about the 515 00:24:26,293 --> 00:24:28,493 Speaker 3: Opportunities Party trying to get back into Parliament with a 516 00:24:28,533 --> 00:24:28,973 Speaker 3: new leader. 517 00:24:29,413 --> 00:24:30,853 Speaker 2: I like to push back on a couple of texts 518 00:24:30,853 --> 00:24:32,413 Speaker 2: that people are sitting through saying it was a stupid 519 00:24:32,453 --> 00:24:36,213 Speaker 2: question to ask about the cat policy. No, because I 520 00:24:36,253 --> 00:24:37,893 Speaker 2: think that had a lot to do with thinking the 521 00:24:38,773 --> 00:24:40,893 Speaker 2: Top Party in the past and why they never got 522 00:24:40,933 --> 00:24:42,973 Speaker 2: over to point five percent, because the whole thing came 523 00:24:43,013 --> 00:24:45,893 Speaker 2: about the around the cat thing. Whether that was never 524 00:24:45,893 --> 00:24:49,653 Speaker 2: a huge significant thing, but Gareth Morgan who started the party, 525 00:24:49,973 --> 00:24:53,013 Speaker 2: was huge about domestic cats because he hated what they 526 00:24:53,013 --> 00:24:55,173 Speaker 2: did to birds and that was something that caught on 527 00:24:55,213 --> 00:24:55,653 Speaker 2: in the media. 528 00:24:55,773 --> 00:24:57,493 Speaker 3: Yeah, and it clearly hit a nerve. So it's an 529 00:24:57,533 --> 00:24:58,173 Speaker 3: important question. 530 00:24:58,173 --> 00:25:00,093 Speaker 2: There was the thing that cuts through more than anything 531 00:25:00,093 --> 00:25:02,413 Speaker 2: else with the Top Party, for better or worse. So 532 00:25:02,453 --> 00:25:04,133 Speaker 2: I think it was a legitimate question to ask where 533 00:25:04,133 --> 00:25:07,013 Speaker 2: they said on the cat thing. She's moved on from it. 534 00:25:06,893 --> 00:25:09,453 Speaker 3: But we still don't know or anti cat. I mean 535 00:25:09,493 --> 00:25:11,133 Speaker 3: she had a cat door. Does that mean that she's 536 00:25:11,173 --> 00:25:12,013 Speaker 3: pro cat? I don't know. 537 00:25:12,173 --> 00:25:14,853 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, no, I think you can read between the lines. 538 00:25:14,853 --> 00:25:16,653 Speaker 2: If she's got a cat door, then she's allowing her 539 00:25:16,693 --> 00:25:20,293 Speaker 2: cat to go out and decimate the native birds of 540 00:25:20,293 --> 00:25:22,613 Speaker 2: our country. So I think you can say the Opportunity 541 00:25:22,653 --> 00:25:24,373 Speaker 2: Party has moved on from the cat is suit. 542 00:25:24,493 --> 00:25:24,733 Speaker 4: Yeah. 543 00:25:24,773 --> 00:25:26,413 Speaker 2: So she didn't want to answer the question, but I 544 00:25:26,413 --> 00:25:26,893 Speaker 2: think she did. 545 00:25:27,013 --> 00:25:29,613 Speaker 3: Yeah, important question. Yeah, Oh one hundred and eighty ten 546 00:25:29,613 --> 00:25:30,453 Speaker 3: eighty is that number to. 547 00:25:30,453 --> 00:25:34,693 Speaker 2: Call CAM you want to talk about universal basic income? 548 00:25:36,293 --> 00:25:39,373 Speaker 11: Yeah, Look, I don't really think it's a good her idea. 549 00:25:39,413 --> 00:25:41,933 Speaker 11: I think I'll just end up pumping up inflation a bit. 550 00:25:42,013 --> 00:25:45,653 Speaker 11: I because if everyone's got the same amount of income, 551 00:25:45,733 --> 00:25:48,453 Speaker 11: then instead of becomes a base, you're not really assisting 552 00:25:48,453 --> 00:25:52,813 Speaker 11: those in need. But just on that, I mean, there's 553 00:25:53,013 --> 00:25:55,413 Speaker 11: certainly no denying that New Zealand has a massive issue 554 00:25:55,413 --> 00:25:59,733 Speaker 11: with the people that are career beneficiaries. And why why 555 00:25:59,733 --> 00:26:01,853 Speaker 11: doesn't one of these parties come up with a solution 556 00:26:02,013 --> 00:26:05,133 Speaker 11: that says, look, from the moment you leave school or 557 00:26:05,173 --> 00:26:08,813 Speaker 11: stop training to the moment you retire at sixty five, 558 00:26:09,533 --> 00:26:13,373 Speaker 11: you can only have five years of benefit life. And 559 00:26:13,613 --> 00:26:15,293 Speaker 11: because I mean it seems a bit of unfeared and 560 00:26:15,373 --> 00:26:18,573 Speaker 11: someone who struggles away their whole life and never takes 561 00:26:18,573 --> 00:26:21,413 Speaker 11: the benefit to let other people spend twenty five years 562 00:26:21,733 --> 00:26:23,213 Speaker 11: of their life on the benefits. I want to just 563 00:26:23,213 --> 00:26:26,373 Speaker 11: put a cat time frame, a cap on how long 564 00:26:26,773 --> 00:26:31,773 Speaker 11: you Obviously someone's got a legitimate need for a need 565 00:26:31,813 --> 00:26:33,733 Speaker 11: for to be on the benefit, like they can't work 566 00:26:33,813 --> 00:26:37,773 Speaker 11: as a handicap or whatever. Fine, but if you haven't, 567 00:26:38,173 --> 00:26:40,813 Speaker 11: I should just get to live and live a life 568 00:26:40,813 --> 00:26:43,533 Speaker 11: where you're paid for by everyone else. Do you think 569 00:26:43,613 --> 00:26:44,773 Speaker 11: Kim's a good standard? 570 00:26:45,453 --> 00:26:47,333 Speaker 2: Do you think, Kim that there are some people that 571 00:26:47,373 --> 00:26:52,453 Speaker 2: are just unemployable that they don't have a necessarily something 572 00:26:52,493 --> 00:26:57,413 Speaker 2: that you could diagnose, but they're just unemployable for whatever reason. 573 00:26:58,053 --> 00:27:00,693 Speaker 2: And after that five years, would they just be on 574 00:27:00,733 --> 00:27:01,893 Speaker 2: the street in your plan? 575 00:27:04,093 --> 00:27:06,333 Speaker 11: Or what do you mean by unemployable? Like unemployable? Like 576 00:27:06,373 --> 00:27:09,733 Speaker 11: not everyone can be a rocket scientist? 577 00:27:09,893 --> 00:27:14,173 Speaker 2: I think rubbish. I think some people can't even do that. 578 00:27:14,453 --> 00:27:17,413 Speaker 2: I don't. I think there are a certain certain percentage 579 00:27:17,413 --> 00:27:20,733 Speaker 2: of people that just cannot, even for whatever reason, no 580 00:27:20,733 --> 00:27:22,893 Speaker 2: matter what you do, even turn up to pick up 581 00:27:22,973 --> 00:27:25,293 Speaker 2: rubbish off the streets. 582 00:27:26,373 --> 00:27:28,453 Speaker 11: Right, So what percentage of the population do you think 583 00:27:28,453 --> 00:27:28,933 Speaker 11: that will apply? 584 00:27:30,493 --> 00:27:33,293 Speaker 2: I would I would say, yeah, I mean. 585 00:27:33,493 --> 00:27:35,253 Speaker 11: We just called the whole bunch of people. I couldn't 586 00:27:35,293 --> 00:27:37,613 Speaker 11: think of one of them that couldn't pick up rubbish. 587 00:27:38,213 --> 00:27:42,493 Speaker 2: Well, there's some people that there's some people that can't 588 00:27:43,453 --> 00:27:48,493 Speaker 2: turn up anywhere. They can't they're a liability. There's more 589 00:27:48,573 --> 00:27:51,133 Speaker 2: work and organizing them to pick up the rubbish than 590 00:27:51,173 --> 00:27:53,253 Speaker 2: it is for them to actually pick up the rubbish. 591 00:27:53,693 --> 00:27:56,653 Speaker 2: I think there's a certain percentage, and anyway, I mean, 592 00:27:57,173 --> 00:27:59,653 Speaker 2: you're right to point out what percentage, because I'm just 593 00:27:59,693 --> 00:28:01,973 Speaker 2: sort of talking here without it. I don't have any 594 00:28:01,973 --> 00:28:04,933 Speaker 2: stats behind it. But I guess the bigger question then 595 00:28:04,973 --> 00:28:07,493 Speaker 2: would be what happens to those people after the five years, 596 00:28:07,613 --> 00:28:10,013 Speaker 2: if they if they got a job, they've failed. 597 00:28:11,653 --> 00:28:13,653 Speaker 11: You can, but you'd like to think you'd like to 598 00:28:13,653 --> 00:28:15,813 Speaker 11: think that I look at that and go, well, Okay, 599 00:28:15,813 --> 00:28:18,093 Speaker 11: I've just left school at eighteen. I've got five years 600 00:28:18,093 --> 00:28:20,853 Speaker 11: of bumming around before I'm not going to get the 601 00:28:21,013 --> 00:28:23,293 Speaker 11: benefit anymore. Maybe I should get off my house and 602 00:28:23,333 --> 00:28:26,253 Speaker 11: get a job now, rather than waking up when I'm 603 00:28:26,293 --> 00:28:28,213 Speaker 11: thirty five as a loser. What's the only job I 604 00:28:28,253 --> 00:28:31,093 Speaker 11: can do is something like picking up rubbish? But even't 605 00:28:31,093 --> 00:28:35,052 Speaker 11: trained or obtained any skills at that point. I think realistically, 606 00:28:35,053 --> 00:28:37,813 Speaker 11: you've got to you know, there's got to be at 607 00:28:37,813 --> 00:28:41,093 Speaker 11: some point in a topic clift that stops people getting 608 00:28:41,093 --> 00:28:43,733 Speaker 11: into that trap, So the just encourage them to be 609 00:28:43,813 --> 00:28:48,013 Speaker 11: on benefits for the whole life and realistically saying that 610 00:28:48,213 --> 00:28:50,573 Speaker 11: while well, some people are unemployable so it can't hide 611 00:28:50,573 --> 00:28:53,333 Speaker 11: to everyone, seems like a pretty low sort of bar 612 00:28:53,453 --> 00:28:56,573 Speaker 11: you're setting for basically basic humanity. 613 00:28:56,933 --> 00:28:58,933 Speaker 2: I know it is. It's an interesting thing with the 614 00:28:59,013 --> 00:29:01,573 Speaker 2: left right thing because some people say that the left 615 00:29:01,613 --> 00:29:05,613 Speaker 2: care about, you know, vulnerable people more, and some people 616 00:29:05,773 --> 00:29:07,613 Speaker 2: say that the left position is that you have no 617 00:29:07,693 --> 00:29:10,493 Speaker 2: faith in human There's two ways of looking at it, 618 00:29:10,933 --> 00:29:13,493 Speaker 2: and I do think there's something. If there's no backstop 619 00:29:13,733 --> 00:29:16,813 Speaker 2: at all, then there's more meaning in whatever job you get. 620 00:29:17,213 --> 00:29:18,653 Speaker 2: And I'm not saying that we should get rid of 621 00:29:18,733 --> 00:29:21,613 Speaker 2: unemployment benefit and I'm not saying that we shouldn't help people, 622 00:29:21,933 --> 00:29:24,813 Speaker 2: but I think if the difference between is starving on 623 00:29:24,853 --> 00:29:28,893 Speaker 2: the streets and holding down what's quite a boring rubbish job, 624 00:29:29,213 --> 00:29:33,293 Speaker 2: then that boring rubbish job is actually more meaningful for you, 625 00:29:33,373 --> 00:29:36,053 Speaker 2: and you will, you will rock through the forty hours 626 00:29:36,093 --> 00:29:38,533 Speaker 2: a week just because the other you know, it has 627 00:29:39,013 --> 00:29:40,693 Speaker 2: serious meaning for your life. 628 00:29:41,933 --> 00:29:43,893 Speaker 11: Yeah, But I think the thing is what you're talking 629 00:29:43,893 --> 00:29:46,813 Speaker 11: about is the boring, meaningless job. Okay, so if you 630 00:29:46,893 --> 00:29:51,373 Speaker 11: leave school and you've got absolutely no skills and you 631 00:29:51,573 --> 00:29:56,173 Speaker 11: enter into the workflorce without any ambition of being a 632 00:29:56,213 --> 00:29:59,173 Speaker 11: painter or anything along those lines, then yeah, by the 633 00:29:59,213 --> 00:30:00,813 Speaker 11: time you get to forty, you're not going to have 634 00:30:00,853 --> 00:30:02,493 Speaker 11: any skills and the only job you're going to get 635 00:30:02,613 --> 00:30:05,373 Speaker 11: is going to be a very poor one. Whereas they 636 00:30:05,373 --> 00:30:07,893 Speaker 11: actually leave school with an ambition of, hey, well I 637 00:30:07,893 --> 00:30:10,493 Speaker 11: could do and get to that point and then be 638 00:30:10,533 --> 00:30:13,733 Speaker 11: an apprentice mechanical builder or work on the railroad or 639 00:30:13,773 --> 00:30:16,333 Speaker 11: get my become a truck driver or something like that, 640 00:30:16,453 --> 00:30:20,973 Speaker 11: then actually the job, the job profile tiedule of that person. 641 00:30:21,293 --> 00:30:24,453 Speaker 11: It's far greater than if they just leave school, playplaystation 642 00:30:24,533 --> 00:30:26,973 Speaker 11: for ten years, wake up when they're twenty eight and 643 00:30:27,013 --> 00:30:29,453 Speaker 11: go oh well, oh shit, I don't want to start 644 00:30:29,453 --> 00:30:31,853 Speaker 11: at the bottom.

Hey, that's fair enough. Yeah, they 700 00:32:58,013 --> 00:32:59,333 Speaker 11: they could be on a benefit if there were a 701 00:32:59,373 --> 00:33:02,253 Speaker 11: criteria that would fulfill that, But realistically, I'm sort of 702 00:33:02,253 --> 00:33:05,213 Speaker 11: talking about more generic sort of approach of going, hey, well, 703 00:33:05,253 --> 00:33:08,733 Speaker 11: you know, realistically, is their jobs out there? Because I'm 704 00:33:08,733 --> 00:33:11,253 Speaker 11: sure everyone who leaves school sense I think they should 705 00:33:11,293 --> 00:33:12,853 Speaker 11: be earning a lot of money. 706 00:33:12,853 --> 00:33:16,253 Speaker 9: But yeah, well I guess I. 707 00:33:16,253 --> 00:33:18,733 Speaker 2: Guess the top party would say that with you know, 708 00:33:18,853 --> 00:33:21,413 Speaker 2: automation and AI taking jobs, that there could be a 709 00:33:21,453 --> 00:33:23,933 Speaker 2: situation down the track very soon where a lot of 710 00:33:23,973 --> 00:33:29,413 Speaker 2: those sort of lowering jobs are just completely replaced or 711 00:33:29,613 --> 00:33:32,733 Speaker 2: and you know, you know, middle class jobs being replaced 712 00:33:32,733 --> 00:33:36,813 Speaker 2: by AI, and that they would believe that the economy 713 00:33:36,853 --> 00:33:39,533 Speaker 2: needs a reset, but you'd also need the economy to 714 00:33:39,573 --> 00:33:43,653 Speaker 2: have the requisite growth to cover that as well. If 715 00:33:43,693 --> 00:33:44,933 Speaker 2: that if that was going to be the case, camp 716 00:33:46,093 --> 00:33:46,893 Speaker 2: so then just on. 717 00:33:46,813 --> 00:33:48,613 Speaker 11: That, well, then why are we why are we bringing 718 00:33:48,613 --> 00:33:50,373 Speaker 11: in immigrants through work if we're going to have a 719 00:33:51,053 --> 00:33:53,093 Speaker 11: over supply of workers in five years time. 720 00:33:53,533 --> 00:33:56,453 Speaker 3: Yeah, thanks so much. We call campcire Can. Thank you 721 00:33:56,533 --> 00:33:59,573 Speaker 3: very much, just quickly on the UBI. Look, I I 722 00:33:59,613 --> 00:34:01,613 Speaker 3: think it's a bad idea in general, but I can 723 00:34:01,693 --> 00:34:04,293 Speaker 3: see some merits and it's still you know, it's a 724 00:34:04,293 --> 00:34:05,813 Speaker 3: bit of a theory here and it hasn't been put 725 00:34:05,813 --> 00:34:08,212 Speaker 3: into practice in any part of the world. But that 726 00:34:08,493 --> 00:34:10,973 Speaker 3: idea that it makes it a lot more simplified at 727 00:34:10,973 --> 00:34:13,292 Speaker 3: the benefit level. But then for people in the middle 728 00:34:13,333 --> 00:34:15,652 Speaker 3: class who actually know the value of hard work, having 729 00:34:15,652 --> 00:34:17,213 Speaker 3: a bit of extra money to take a punt on 730 00:34:17,253 --> 00:34:19,813 Speaker 3: something like a business can be good for an economy. 731 00:34:19,813 --> 00:34:21,453 Speaker 3: So that is the flip side. But it is a 732 00:34:21,453 --> 00:34:23,733 Speaker 3: bold idea. Oh eight one hundred eighty ten eighty is 733 00:34:23,733 --> 00:34:25,613 Speaker 3: that number to call?

Sorry, they call it the change 749 00:35:14,573 --> 00:35:17,853 Speaker 2: the name because the UBI has a bit of baggage, 750 00:35:17,893 --> 00:35:19,773 Speaker 2: so they're calling it the citizens. What is it? 751 00:35:19,853 --> 00:35:20,333 Speaker 3: Citizens? 752 00:35:20,333 --> 00:35:24,573 Speaker 2: And citizens can So their assertion at top is that 753 00:35:24,973 --> 00:35:28,533 Speaker 2: it will give people the space to be innovative and 754 00:35:28,653 --> 00:35:33,573 Speaker 2: take risks in life and become the next you know, 755 00:35:33,853 --> 00:35:37,533 Speaker 2: genius that employs you know, tens of thousands of people 756 00:35:37,573 --> 00:35:39,013 Speaker 2: in this country. 757 00:35:40,733 --> 00:35:43,853 Speaker 9: That will apply to some, but most will just say 758 00:35:44,373 --> 00:35:46,373 Speaker 9: take the money and sip on my ass. 759 00:35:47,853 --> 00:35:49,813 Speaker 3: If it was to come into play, Maverick, do you 760 00:35:49,813 --> 00:35:51,413 Speaker 3: think you'd give it back?

And you were making this point 768 00:36:15,133 --> 00:36:17,413 Speaker 3: and I do agree with it that that motivation when 769 00:36:17,453 --> 00:36:21,253 Speaker 3: you're between so your options are you go hungry and 770 00:36:21,293 --> 00:36:24,093 Speaker 3: your family go hungry, or you work a job. Great 771 00:36:24,133 --> 00:36:27,533 Speaker 3: motivation and good for giving you purpose in life. But 772 00:36:27,613 --> 00:36:30,692 Speaker 3: I think I hope for most people when it's sink 773 00:36:30,773 --> 00:36:34,093 Speaker 3: or swim, you swim. When what is on the line 774 00:36:34,293 --> 00:36:37,373 Speaker 3: is that you feed yourself and house yourself, most people 775 00:36:37,453 --> 00:36:40,453 Speaker 3: I would assume would do whatever they needed to do 776 00:36:40,613 --> 00:36:42,692 Speaker 3: to make sure that they weren't on the streets. 777 00:36:42,373 --> 00:36:45,853 Speaker 2: You know, well, including burglary and stealing food off people. 778 00:36:45,853 --> 00:36:48,013 Speaker 3: There's a lot of that as well, yep, absolutely, you know, 779 00:36:48,093 --> 00:36:50,093 Speaker 3: and this hasn't been disparaging to those on the street, 780 00:36:50,093 --> 00:36:51,533 Speaker 3: but as we know, there's a lot of factors that 781 00:36:51,573 --> 00:36:54,413 Speaker 3: play there with people who end up in that unfortunate position. 782 00:36:54,653 --> 00:36:57,453 Speaker 3: But I think for most of these you need that motivation. 783 00:36:57,653 --> 00:37:02,013 Speaker 3: Right when that motivation has taken away that unless you work, 784 00:37:02,213 --> 00:37:03,773 Speaker 3: you're not going to be able to feed yourself with 785 00:37:03,853 --> 00:37:07,293 Speaker 3: your family, then there may be people who take advantage 786 00:37:07,333 --> 00:37:07,493 Speaker 3: of that. 787 00:37:09,293 --> 00:37:12,853 Speaker 9: Yep.

Yep, texting hate it me for achieving 838 00:39:36,253 --> 00:39:39,053 Speaker 2: something hard that I didn't think I could achieve. Well, 839 00:39:39,533 --> 00:39:42,413 Speaker 2: you people, you are what is wrong with this country, 840 00:39:43,413 --> 00:39:45,693 Speaker 2: the first and much larger group who reach out to 841 00:39:45,733 --> 00:39:50,253 Speaker 2: celebrate someone's success what is right with the country? And look, 842 00:39:50,533 --> 00:39:52,453 Speaker 2: running a marathon was harder than I thought, and I 843 00:39:52,453 --> 00:39:54,613 Speaker 2: thought it would be very hard. So I have so 844 00:39:54,733 --> 00:39:57,493 Speaker 2: much admiration for those who do it so much better 845 00:39:57,533 --> 00:40:00,732 Speaker 2: than me. And there were so many people, and there 846 00:40:00,813 --> 00:40:04,773 Speaker 2: was people in their seventies. And there's something about doing 847 00:40:04,813 --> 00:40:07,573 Speaker 2: an organized run like that, where people have worked hard 848 00:40:07,613 --> 00:40:10,013 Speaker 2: to get to the that day and they're all doing it, 849 00:40:10,093 --> 00:40:12,613 Speaker 2: and they're out early in the morning and they're trying 850 00:40:12,613 --> 00:40:17,053 Speaker 2: something really hard. There's something quite beautiful about it. It's 851 00:40:17,213 --> 00:40:20,613 Speaker 2: that sort of shared shared spirit. And you know, you 852 00:40:20,693 --> 00:40:23,373 Speaker 2: do things not because they're easy, but because they're hard. 853 00:40:23,693 --> 00:40:25,252 Speaker 2: And you could just go out your door and run 854 00:40:25,253 --> 00:40:26,732 Speaker 2: a forty two k if you want it. You don't 855 00:40:26,733 --> 00:40:29,772 Speaker 2: have to pay, you don't have to I was thinking 856 00:40:29,773 --> 00:40:33,933 Speaker 2: about I threw it, flew one thousand kilometers and paid 857 00:40:34,133 --> 00:40:36,533 Speaker 2: three hundred and fifty bucks or something to run forty 858 00:40:36,573 --> 00:40:39,453 Speaker 2: two kilometers in Queenstown and then threw it, flew a 859 00:40:39,493 --> 00:40:42,253 Speaker 2: thousand flew a thousand kilometers back. Yeah, when I could 860 00:40:42,293 --> 00:40:43,732 Speaker 2: have just run out the door. But it's the doing 861 00:40:43,773 --> 00:40:47,533 Speaker 2: it with people that is so good. So anyway, I 862 00:40:47,573 --> 00:40:49,493 Speaker 2: thank you for your kind messages, and I've got to 863 00:40:49,493 --> 00:40:51,573 Speaker 2: say again thanks heaps to Kate from Clyde who I 864 00:40:51,613 --> 00:40:54,533 Speaker 2: met on the run, who looked after me with gels 865 00:40:54,573 --> 00:40:57,293 Speaker 2: and hazards and timings. She was just so onto it 866 00:40:57,333 --> 00:41:00,493 Speaker 2: with what a great person she was. Like Guardian Angel 867 00:41:00,773 --> 00:41:02,653 Speaker 2: that met me on the run, she's one of the 868 00:41:02,653 --> 00:41:05,652 Speaker 2: good ones as well. So anyway, enough about that, let's 869 00:41:05,653 --> 00:41:07,053 Speaker 2: move on with the show, right, Let's. 870 00:41:06,893 --> 00:41:09,053 Speaker 3: Get into this one. So we have a chat about 871 00:41:09,053 --> 00:41:12,453 Speaker 3: screen time. New research is sounding and even louder alarm 872 00:41:12,493 --> 00:41:15,653 Speaker 3: over kids digital habit. So children are in the OECD 873 00:41:15,733 --> 00:41:18,373 Speaker 3: and now spending roughly six hours a day that includes 874 00:41:18,373 --> 00:41:22,373 Speaker 3: New Zealand of course on screen. So experts say that 875 00:41:22,693 --> 00:41:26,493 Speaker 3: is creating out sleep, active play, genuine social interaction and 876 00:41:26,493 --> 00:41:28,692 Speaker 3: what used to be a harmless distraction has become an 877 00:41:28,733 --> 00:41:31,893 Speaker 3: all day default and specialist now worn. The young brains 878 00:41:31,933 --> 00:41:36,253 Speaker 3: simply aren't built for that level of constant stimulation, and. 879 00:41:36,293 --> 00:41:38,293 Speaker 2: It is a real concern. We've talked about this on 880 00:41:38,333 --> 00:41:41,013 Speaker 2: the show before, not for a few months. We talked 881 00:41:41,013 --> 00:41:45,733 Speaker 2: about similar, similar subjects, but this is the this new 882 00:41:45,813 --> 00:41:50,133 Speaker 2: science coming out is really really concerning how much it 883 00:41:50,213 --> 00:41:54,893 Speaker 2: damages kids development and it is literally making kids stupid. 884 00:41:55,493 --> 00:41:58,253 Speaker 2: And that is the last thing that parents want to 885 00:41:58,293 --> 00:42:01,733 Speaker 2: do to their children, right Yeah, And so I mean 886 00:42:01,773 --> 00:42:05,053 Speaker 2: the question is when do you allow your kids screen time? 887 00:42:05,413 --> 00:42:08,253 Speaker 2: Because it's not just giving them a phone when they're thirteen, 888 00:42:09,013 --> 00:42:14,733 Speaker 2: This is have, you know, handing them a iPad to 889 00:42:15,013 --> 00:42:19,732 Speaker 2: keep them quiet? Yeh, it's really bad, But what can 890 00:42:19,733 --> 00:42:22,613 Speaker 2: we do about it? And it's the pressure on parents 891 00:42:22,733 --> 00:42:26,133 Speaker 2: because parents work really freaking hard as well. So you've 892 00:42:26,133 --> 00:42:29,333 Speaker 2: got parents that are holding down two jobs and they 893 00:42:29,373 --> 00:42:31,373 Speaker 2: get home and they just need to rest as well 894 00:42:31,653 --> 00:42:34,253 Speaker 2: done naked, they're naked, and they've got this kid and 895 00:42:34,253 --> 00:42:36,573 Speaker 2: they've got the solution that's right there for the problem, 896 00:42:36,573 --> 00:42:40,413 Speaker 2: and the solution is to hand them an iPad. But 897 00:42:40,573 --> 00:42:42,613 Speaker 2: every time you do that, and the kid gets so 898 00:42:42,653 --> 00:42:45,613 Speaker 2: stimulated that they don't they can't deal with boredom in 899 00:42:45,613 --> 00:42:47,773 Speaker 2: any way, shape or form. So it actually you can 900 00:42:47,853 --> 00:42:50,293 Speaker 2: understand why parents do it, but it actually makes the 901 00:42:50,333 --> 00:42:54,212 Speaker 2: problem worse because as time goes on, kids desperately now 902 00:42:54,413 --> 00:43:00,093 Speaker 2: need the iPad because they haven't learned to entertain themselves. 903 00:43:00,253 --> 00:43:02,613 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you mentioned it briefly before it when we're 904 00:43:02,613 --> 00:43:04,693 Speaker 3: having a chat about the SOFIA while we were prepping, 905 00:43:04,973 --> 00:43:07,373 Speaker 3: you mentioned siblings. And I think that's a massive part 906 00:43:07,413 --> 00:43:10,413 Speaker 3: of it to anyone out there just with worth one child. 907 00:43:10,493 --> 00:43:12,813 Speaker 3: It's not being disparaging here, but that is a large part. 908 00:43:12,813 --> 00:43:16,253 Speaker 3: When you have brothers and sisters, there's that extra motivation 909 00:43:16,413 --> 00:43:18,533 Speaker 3: to come up with games, to go outside, to do 910 00:43:18,533 --> 00:43:20,133 Speaker 3: all those things I did as a kid with my 911 00:43:20,173 --> 00:43:23,333 Speaker 3: older brothers. We pade with stacks, we had you know, 912 00:43:23,373 --> 00:43:25,253 Speaker 3: we rode the dog when we were young enough out 913 00:43:25,253 --> 00:43:26,813 Speaker 3: in the orchard. That was nice, not so much for 914 00:43:26,853 --> 00:43:27,133 Speaker 3: the dog. 915 00:43:27,173 --> 00:43:27,933 Speaker 2: We got told off for that. 916 00:43:28,293 --> 00:43:30,293 Speaker 3: But you know, all these little games and things that 917 00:43:30,333 --> 00:43:33,693 Speaker 3: you do, and we you know, I was not in 918 00:43:33,693 --> 00:43:35,693 Speaker 3: the era that we had iPads, but we certainly had 919 00:43:35,693 --> 00:43:38,692 Speaker 3: a computer and it was just more interesting to go 920 00:43:38,733 --> 00:43:39,853 Speaker 3: out and do stuff with the bros. 921 00:43:40,133 --> 00:43:44,053 Speaker 2: There is nothing more entertaining than having a sibling within 922 00:43:44,093 --> 00:43:47,733 Speaker 2: about two years of your age. Yep, my sons, yes, 923 00:43:47,773 --> 00:43:50,973 Speaker 2: because they just they were huge into sword fighting for 924 00:43:51,173 --> 00:43:54,693 Speaker 2: years and years. They were just outside sword fighting and 925 00:43:54,773 --> 00:43:58,373 Speaker 2: running and doing this stuff. But you know, families are 926 00:43:58,413 --> 00:44:00,133 Speaker 2: smaller now than they used to be. Yeah, a lot 927 00:44:00,173 --> 00:44:02,093 Speaker 2: of people believe it's too expensive. I mean it's quite 928 00:44:02,133 --> 00:44:03,853 Speaker 2: hard to run four kids these days like I had 929 00:44:03,853 --> 00:44:04,493 Speaker 2: when I was a kid. 930 00:44:04,573 --> 00:44:05,853 Speaker 3: Yep, absolutely, Yeah. 931 00:44:05,973 --> 00:44:08,893 Speaker 2: Do kids still play war when I was a kid. 932 00:44:08,933 --> 00:44:10,893 Speaker 2: When I was a kid, the thing you did is 933 00:44:10,933 --> 00:44:13,373 Speaker 2: you fashioned a stick into the shape of a gun, 934 00:44:13,413 --> 00:44:14,733 Speaker 2: and you ran round and you went. 935 00:44:15,973 --> 00:44:18,493 Speaker 3: Such a great game, such a great game.

They're rewarding they reward right, yeah, yeah. 987 00:46:54,733 --> 00:46:57,373 Speaker 13: The iPad right, which is really wrong. 988 00:46:57,853 --> 00:47:00,733 Speaker 2: It's interesting because we've talked to a few teachers about 989 00:47:00,733 --> 00:47:03,692 Speaker 2: this on a different topic. A teacher that was talking 990 00:47:03,693 --> 00:47:06,293 Speaker 2: about how hard it is to run a class of 991 00:47:06,973 --> 00:47:09,893 Speaker 2: primary school kids that you know, twenty five thirty kids 992 00:47:09,933 --> 00:47:13,373 Speaker 2: because the teacher, I can't remember my name. They just 993 00:47:13,413 --> 00:47:15,853 Speaker 2: can't concentrate, and they've never heard, they've never heard no, 994 00:47:15,973 --> 00:47:19,333 Speaker 2: so they just go, they just rack up until they 995 00:47:19,333 --> 00:47:21,133 Speaker 2: get what they want, because that's what they do to 996 00:47:21,133 --> 00:47:22,773 Speaker 2: their parents. They go go go go, go, go, go 997 00:47:22,773 --> 00:47:25,013 Speaker 2: go go, and they please and then they finally get 998 00:47:25,013 --> 00:47:26,692 Speaker 2: handed the phone or the iPad. 999 00:47:28,093 --> 00:47:30,732 Speaker 13: Sosoe even said to me this morning, she said, Mum, 1000 00:47:30,733 --> 00:47:35,893 Speaker 13: you know, even George, he gets the iPad very very 1001 00:47:36,013 --> 00:47:39,373 Speaker 13: very seldomly at home because I think it's send him 1002 00:47:39,373 --> 00:47:41,413 Speaker 13: out on the farm with his dad and the tractor 1003 00:47:41,613 --> 00:47:44,013 Speaker 13: or you know, go up to the milkings and do whatever, 1004 00:47:44,573 --> 00:47:47,573 Speaker 13: but not on the iPad. But she said, even though 1005 00:47:47,613 --> 00:47:50,533 Speaker 13: he gets a really short time on the iPad from 1006 00:47:50,533 --> 00:47:53,893 Speaker 13: time to time, she said, even that makes him feral, 1007 00:47:53,933 --> 00:47:55,613 Speaker 13: because she says, when you want to take it away, 1008 00:47:55,733 --> 00:47:58,293 Speaker 13: they're so fixated on it that they do not want 1009 00:47:58,333 --> 00:47:58,813 Speaker 13: to give it up. 1010 00:47:58,933 --> 00:48:01,813 Speaker 2: It's too exciting. This the dopamine is too bad. How 1011 00:48:01,853 --> 00:48:04,692 Speaker 2: did you say that your daughter had two sons? Was it? 1012 00:48:05,893 --> 00:48:06,093 Speaker 11: Yeah? 1013 00:48:06,533 --> 00:48:09,333 Speaker 2: And what ages are they compared? How close are they 1014 00:48:09,373 --> 00:48:10,293 Speaker 2: in age to each other? 1015 00:48:11,293 --> 00:48:13,173 Speaker 13: I've got three year old in eighteen months? 1016 00:48:13,333 --> 00:48:15,693 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, so I think is the eighteen 1017 00:48:15,733 --> 00:48:18,333 Speaker 2: month roll because that's kind of similar to my two sons, 1018 00:48:18,453 --> 00:48:20,853 Speaker 2: and I think that might be a saving grace for 1019 00:48:20,933 --> 00:48:23,093 Speaker 2: them because they will kind of they can kind of 1020 00:48:23,093 --> 00:48:26,373 Speaker 2: have similar interests being that close in age. And it's 1021 00:48:26,453 --> 00:48:28,573 Speaker 2: pretty pretty damn fun playing with your brother. 1022 00:48:28,813 --> 00:48:30,453 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean exactly. 1023 00:48:30,573 --> 00:48:33,693 Speaker 2: That might even be more fun than watching rubbish on 1024 00:48:33,733 --> 00:48:36,453 Speaker 2: an iPad or playing games on an iPad. Playing with 1025 00:48:36,493 --> 00:48:36,853 Speaker 2: your brother. 1026 00:48:37,973 --> 00:48:41,732 Speaker 13: It's just scary that, you know, yes, our kids get 1027 00:48:41,773 --> 00:48:46,973 Speaker 13: to do outside stuff, but there's just so many people 1028 00:48:47,093 --> 00:48:51,652 Speaker 13: who just don't give it there and it's easier to 1029 00:48:51,653 --> 00:48:54,013 Speaker 13: put them on the iPad. And I yes, you know, 1030 00:48:54,133 --> 00:48:58,533 Speaker 13: our kids had the Tellytubbies and whatever on TV, but 1031 00:48:58,573 --> 00:49:01,813 Speaker 13: it was not the same these you know, these parents 1032 00:49:01,853 --> 00:49:05,733 Speaker 13: are just putting their kids on YouTube and then it's 1033 00:49:05,813 --> 00:49:10,013 Speaker 13: just video the video. They don't even know what they're watching. 1034 00:49:10,253 --> 00:49:12,973 Speaker 3: Do you think some parents are at gunsand that. I'm 1035 00:49:13,013 --> 00:49:14,813 Speaker 3: just trying to think back to my childhood and we 1036 00:49:14,813 --> 00:49:17,973 Speaker 3: didn't have devices. But I'm pretty sure if there were 1037 00:49:18,013 --> 00:49:20,973 Speaker 3: devices around like iPads, Mum would have given me one. 1038 00:49:21,693 --> 00:49:24,173 Speaker 3: But by the very fact we didn't have one, that 1039 00:49:24,333 --> 00:49:26,053 Speaker 3: we had the telling and we had the computer, and 1040 00:49:26,053 --> 00:49:27,613 Speaker 3: there was time that we're allowed to do that, but 1041 00:49:27,653 --> 00:49:30,733 Speaker 3: it wasn't as addictive. So to say, hey, go and 1042 00:49:30,773 --> 00:49:32,933 Speaker 3: read a book or go play outside with your brother 1043 00:49:33,053 --> 00:49:35,173 Speaker 3: was a lot easier to do then kids these days 1044 00:49:35,173 --> 00:49:38,093 Speaker 3: who scream when they can't get there where your iPad fixed? 1045 00:49:39,213 --> 00:49:42,853 Speaker 13: Yeah? Absolutely, And I mean I've even stopped, you know, 1046 00:49:43,013 --> 00:49:47,413 Speaker 13: in the evenings watching stuff on screens, because I've got 1047 00:49:47,373 --> 00:49:50,213 Speaker 13: my stuff back into books, because I look at the 1048 00:49:50,213 --> 00:49:54,053 Speaker 13: books and you know, the explanation of everything is so 1049 00:49:54,173 --> 00:49:57,053 Speaker 13: much better than just you're watching the screen. You're not 1050 00:49:57,093 --> 00:49:59,813 Speaker 13: picking up something else that's in the room or this 1051 00:49:59,933 --> 00:50:03,133 Speaker 13: or that, but in the book they describe everything to you, 1052 00:50:03,253 --> 00:50:06,213 Speaker 13: and it's just I just felt that it's filling my 1053 00:50:06,373 --> 00:50:13,013 Speaker 13: mind so much more with stuffy and extra words and 1054 00:50:13,093 --> 00:50:16,053 Speaker 13: things that I need to learn. Then watching an on screen, well. 1055 00:50:15,973 --> 00:50:18,652 Speaker 2: They do ct scans on people's brains when they're reading book, 1056 00:50:18,733 --> 00:50:20,693 Speaker 2: because you know, you not only have to read, but 1057 00:50:20,733 --> 00:50:22,893 Speaker 2: you have to picture. So much of your brain is 1058 00:50:23,013 --> 00:50:27,413 Speaker 2: lit up by reading, and it is incredibly good. It's 1059 00:50:27,453 --> 00:50:29,613 Speaker 2: like it's like a workout. Reading is like going to 1060 00:50:29,653 --> 00:50:31,453 Speaker 2: the gym for your brain. It brings up, it builds 1061 00:50:31,493 --> 00:50:35,172 Speaker 2: up brain muscles. It's an incredible, incredible thing reading. And 1062 00:50:35,533 --> 00:50:38,973 Speaker 2: that's I mean, if kids can't even take not beyond 1063 00:50:39,333 --> 00:50:41,293 Speaker 2: you know, I've heard this as well. Good luck getting 1064 00:50:41,293 --> 00:50:44,653 Speaker 2: them to read Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings 1065 00:50:44,733 --> 00:50:46,653 Speaker 2: or something. Now, yeah, I mentionine trying to hand a 1066 00:50:46,773 --> 00:50:50,253 Speaker 2: kid that can hardly bear being off their iPad for 1067 00:50:50,293 --> 00:50:54,293 Speaker 2: thirty seconds a big chunky book. Yeah, like the deathly hellos. 1068 00:50:54,613 --> 00:50:57,573 Speaker 2: Tell them to read that. Good luck? Hey, thank you 1069 00:50:57,653 --> 00:51:01,213 Speaker 2: so much? Fair you know you finished them, you finished. 1070 00:51:01,453 --> 00:51:04,493 Speaker 13: It is quite It is quite sad though that you know, 1071 00:51:04,653 --> 00:51:09,493 Speaker 13: we're stealing these children of those opportunities of speaking their 1072 00:51:09,533 --> 00:51:12,732 Speaker 13: minds and their brains grown. Instead, you're giving them an 1073 00:51:12,773 --> 00:51:17,453 Speaker 13: iPad and basically turning them into I don't know, cat tato. 1074 00:51:17,893 --> 00:51:21,973 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, Well, good luck with your daughter's struggles at daycare. 1075 00:51:22,093 --> 00:51:25,493 Speaker 2: And I'm sure her two boys will will will benefit 1076 00:51:25,493 --> 00:51:27,733 Speaker 2: from being on a dairy farm and having a sibling 1077 00:51:27,813 --> 00:51:29,613 Speaker 2: so close in age.

We are talking about kids in screen time. 1088 00:51:56,853 --> 00:52:00,333 Speaker 3: So some pretty alarming research coming out that kids on 1089 00:52:00,373 --> 00:52:02,732 Speaker 3: average have about six hours screen time and that does 1090 00:52:02,853 --> 00:52:05,333 Speaker 3: terrible things for the brain.

I would love someone on 1093 00:52:08,053 --> 00:52:10,013 Speaker 2: your could dig up. The audio from one of The 1094 00:52:10,013 --> 00:52:13,733 Speaker 2: Weekend Collective regular guests on the exact topic was hilarious 1095 00:52:13,973 --> 00:52:17,373 Speaker 2: but thought provoking. Comparison would have been maybe three years ago. 1096 00:52:17,493 --> 00:52:20,693 Speaker 2: Though okay, okay, great show the Weekend Collective, but I 1097 00:52:20,693 --> 00:52:22,893 Speaker 2: don't think we've got access to one three years ago. 1098 00:52:23,093 --> 00:52:25,053 Speaker 3: It's a deep dive into the Cilia Lynn. 1099 00:52:25,493 --> 00:52:27,573 Speaker 2: It was along the lines of having found the perfect 1100 00:52:27,573 --> 00:52:30,333 Speaker 2: solution to keeping their kids quiet and entertained, allowing me 1101 00:52:30,453 --> 00:52:32,413 Speaker 2: to get on with my busy life. I just give 1102 00:52:32,413 --> 00:52:35,533 Speaker 2: them a glass of wine to start with it. I 1103 00:52:35,693 --> 00:52:38,133 Speaker 2: just give them a little bit. Then, when I looked 1104 00:52:38,173 --> 00:52:40,253 Speaker 2: the glass, took the glass away, they would complain they 1105 00:52:40,253 --> 00:52:42,853 Speaker 2: didn't have enough, and all their friends got more. So 1106 00:52:42,933 --> 00:52:44,973 Speaker 2: I gave them some more wine. Probably now as the 1107 00:52:45,013 --> 00:52:46,933 Speaker 2: amount of wine that they need each day to stay 1108 00:52:46,973 --> 00:52:50,333 Speaker 2: calm and leave me in peace has increased and through 1109 00:52:50,413 --> 00:52:52,373 Speaker 2: a mass of tantrum, if I didn't give them a bottle. 1110 00:52:52,613 --> 00:52:54,373 Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's what you're doing. 1111 00:52:54,453 --> 00:52:57,733 Speaker 3: Yep, that's a good analogy. So it's just giving them 1112 00:52:57,773 --> 00:52:59,533 Speaker 3: a little bit more of the drive that they so 1113 00:52:59,653 --> 00:53:00,493 Speaker 3: desperately crave. 1114 00:53:00,573 --> 00:53:02,453 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean that's I mean, is it that 1115 00:53:02,493 --> 00:53:05,573 Speaker 2: different giving them If it's making them dumber, as the 1116 00:53:05,613 --> 00:53:08,893 Speaker 2: study suggests out of Australia, then is it any better 1117 00:53:08,933 --> 00:53:10,093 Speaker 2: than giving them a glass of wine? 1118 00:53:10,173 --> 00:53:11,893 Speaker 3: Yeah? Good question. Rick. 1119 00:53:11,973 --> 00:53:14,973 Speaker 6: How are you make good thanks yourself? 1120 00:53:15,093 --> 00:53:16,973 Speaker 3: Yeah, very well. So you reckon there was a bit 1121 00:53:17,013 --> 00:53:19,013 Speaker 3: of a difference between your daughters and son. 1122 00:53:20,133 --> 00:53:24,413 Speaker 6: Yeah, correct, correct, yep. I don't know whether just because 1123 00:53:24,453 --> 00:53:26,853 Speaker 6: they were always you know, falling on moms the mom's 1124 00:53:26,853 --> 00:53:29,253 Speaker 6: apron and whatnot in the kitchen and I me and 1125 00:53:29,293 --> 00:53:31,613 Speaker 6: the younger are outside don't want to do things or not. 1126 00:53:31,693 --> 00:53:36,573 Speaker 6: But I give my son he it was more of 1127 00:53:36,613 --> 00:53:41,293 Speaker 6: the the one that would really, really like it. We 1128 00:53:41,453 --> 00:53:43,493 Speaker 6: gave them one of those leaps thought like all the girls, 1129 00:53:43,493 --> 00:53:45,773 Speaker 6: all the kids had the same leap frog thing when 1130 00:53:45,813 --> 00:53:49,212 Speaker 6: they were younger, but it was only learning stuff. There's 1131 00:53:49,293 --> 00:53:51,333 Speaker 6: no free choice to stuff or anything there. And it 1132 00:53:51,413 --> 00:53:56,133 Speaker 6: would have been about four years old for and half right. 1133 00:53:56,133 --> 00:53:58,173 Speaker 3: And just sorry, just quickly, what's the leap frog? Is 1134 00:53:58,173 --> 00:54:00,613 Speaker 3: that like a educational show software? 1135 00:54:01,093 --> 00:54:04,493 Speaker 6: Well, it's like it's like it's like an iPad or 1136 00:54:04,573 --> 00:54:07,813 Speaker 6: one of those pad things, but it's strictly only got 1137 00:54:08,013 --> 00:54:11,373 Speaker 6: the leap breath from program thing on it. That's all 1138 00:54:11,413 --> 00:54:19,853 Speaker 6: about learning only. But also yeah, yeah, so so what 1139 00:54:19,973 --> 00:54:22,813 Speaker 6: happened was they you know, we get news and whatnot, 1140 00:54:22,853 --> 00:54:25,732 Speaker 6: and you know, fast forward a few years to well 1141 00:54:25,893 --> 00:54:28,172 Speaker 6: the young fella would got to about seven or eight. 1142 00:54:29,093 --> 00:54:32,333 Speaker 6: We noticed he was really starting to you know, after 1143 00:54:32,373 --> 00:54:35,533 Speaker 6: school he'd ask if we can jump on it, your 1144 00:54:35,533 --> 00:54:39,173 Speaker 6: homework everything, yep, yep, sweet and jump on it and 1145 00:54:39,213 --> 00:54:42,453 Speaker 6: then become a habit of like it was all good 1146 00:54:42,493 --> 00:54:46,493 Speaker 6: from going on. He had great attitudes. It's like previous 1147 00:54:46,533 --> 00:54:49,453 Speaker 6: people said that it was a timent on seeing it off. 1148 00:54:49,973 --> 00:54:53,173 Speaker 6: Oh man, you got a duckade because if it's only 1149 00:54:53,253 --> 00:54:56,053 Speaker 6: flying because he doesn't want to give it up. So 1150 00:54:56,533 --> 00:54:58,933 Speaker 6: we cut him down, my wife and I was seven 1151 00:54:58,973 --> 00:55:02,013 Speaker 6: down and we had a yarn with the his sister 1152 00:55:02,173 --> 00:55:05,773 Speaker 6: made looks, do you want this to vite or or 1153 00:55:05,773 --> 00:55:07,573 Speaker 6: you don't want it? There's obviously the answers that you 1154 00:55:07,613 --> 00:55:10,893 Speaker 6: wanted well to check this attitude that at the end 1155 00:55:10,893 --> 00:55:12,813 Speaker 6: of it which not going to give it to you, son, 1156 00:55:13,253 --> 00:55:16,973 Speaker 6: dance will be no resigned. So instead of just having 1157 00:55:16,973 --> 00:55:20,373 Speaker 6: free reign in the afternoon, we first started him off 1158 00:55:20,413 --> 00:55:25,213 Speaker 6: on two hours, and for we had really explained and 1159 00:55:25,413 --> 00:55:29,133 Speaker 6: stressed the point about him losing it as a punishment 1160 00:55:29,173 --> 00:55:34,053 Speaker 6: for the behavior as such. And then the long story short, yeah, 1161 00:55:34,293 --> 00:55:37,213 Speaker 6: the two hours worked for about three or four months, 1162 00:55:37,253 --> 00:55:41,493 Speaker 6: and then three attitude had ugly out and then we 1163 00:55:41,573 --> 00:55:45,053 Speaker 6: just cut it right back to the bar and half 1164 00:55:45,373 --> 00:55:49,973 Speaker 6: out sorry hours. And then on the weekend we had 1165 00:55:49,973 --> 00:55:51,533 Speaker 6: to sit him down and make a deal with him 1166 00:55:51,533 --> 00:55:54,053 Speaker 6: as such, like the compromise, So he had to control 1167 00:55:54,133 --> 00:55:57,373 Speaker 6: in the way and he got three hours on any 1168 00:55:57,413 --> 00:56:00,573 Speaker 6: given day on the weekend divided, he only had an 1169 00:56:00,573 --> 00:56:04,333 Speaker 6: hour after school any attitude, and he'd lose an hour 1170 00:56:04,853 --> 00:56:06,973 Speaker 6: over the weekend, right. 1171 00:56:07,333 --> 00:56:10,253 Speaker 2: So, and that worked. So at the end of the 1172 00:56:10,333 --> 00:56:14,133 Speaker 2: hour he would hand it over without trouble. 1173 00:56:15,133 --> 00:56:20,773 Speaker 6: Yeah, but come on hours up mate, really yeah? Or 1174 00:56:21,613 --> 00:56:24,933 Speaker 6: you know I just want to live life then or 1175 00:56:24,973 --> 00:56:26,773 Speaker 6: come back and just carrying on you lose it. 1176 00:56:27,173 --> 00:56:30,093 Speaker 2: And and what was the attitude either side of that 1177 00:56:30,573 --> 00:56:32,652 Speaker 2: after that, because a lot of people say that, you know, 1178 00:56:32,653 --> 00:56:34,733 Speaker 2: it's not just the time on, it's what the kids 1179 00:56:34,853 --> 00:56:38,533 Speaker 2: like after they get off. It just changes their ability 1180 00:56:38,613 --> 00:56:39,772 Speaker 2: to enjoy anything else. 1181 00:56:40,773 --> 00:56:43,333 Speaker 6: Yeah. Yeah, that was a big thing we noticed too, 1182 00:56:43,573 --> 00:56:47,533 Speaker 6: was that once we'd actually stick the time down during 1183 00:56:47,573 --> 00:56:51,133 Speaker 6: you know, right down to the hour and week, his 1184 00:56:51,253 --> 00:56:53,573 Speaker 6: attitude afterwards and stuff. He was keen to do other 1185 00:56:53,613 --> 00:56:56,333 Speaker 6: stuff again. You know, he's a dead can go golfing, 1186 00:56:57,733 --> 00:57:00,413 Speaker 6: Let to go, you know. And I was like, hey, 1187 00:57:00,733 --> 00:57:06,333 Speaker 6: it seems to be like golf. That's good son down 1188 00:57:06,373 --> 00:57:12,893 Speaker 6: to the ground. But yes, And and the weekends because 1189 00:57:13,133 --> 00:57:16,293 Speaker 6: you know, Tuesday he had forty training, so jam is 1190 00:57:16,373 --> 00:57:19,413 Speaker 6: jam packed on Tuesday. The Thursday, same thing. Well, then 1191 00:57:19,453 --> 00:57:22,333 Speaker 6: Saturday he had rugby, so you know it was a 1192 00:57:22,333 --> 00:57:24,213 Speaker 6: big holes. The whole band would go out and what 1193 00:57:24,293 --> 00:57:26,933 Speaker 6: looks sports and everything, so he ended up being but 1194 00:57:27,093 --> 00:57:29,893 Speaker 6: naked to even players the game. We couldn't bet as 1195 00:57:30,173 --> 00:57:32,333 Speaker 6: you're in as device is that knack it up. There's 1196 00:57:32,373 --> 00:57:35,733 Speaker 6: some rugby and stuff. He ended up just watching TV 1197 00:57:35,893 --> 00:57:37,973 Speaker 6: or whatever in the round, just tilling out and then 1198 00:57:38,453 --> 00:57:40,173 Speaker 6: he might have it in an hour or two on 1199 00:57:40,213 --> 00:57:44,733 Speaker 6: the Sunday, and his attitude fully changed man for the better. Right, Well, 1200 00:57:44,853 --> 00:57:46,253 Speaker 6: did you worried about it? 1201 00:57:46,293 --> 00:57:46,453 Speaker 14: Man? 1202 00:57:48,213 --> 00:57:52,973 Speaker 6: Yeah, my wife's lit and fully attested. Would never never 1203 00:57:53,093 --> 00:57:55,333 Speaker 6: met the kids another like that. This is how we 1204 00:57:55,373 --> 00:57:57,453 Speaker 6: sort of don't just look through it as way or 1205 00:57:57,893 --> 00:58:00,613 Speaker 6: you know, give them more anten of but they look 1206 00:58:00,693 --> 00:58:02,333 Speaker 6: they feel like they're winning out of the dead or 1207 00:58:02,373 --> 00:58:05,653 Speaker 6: getting fifty fifty more instead of just know you're not 1208 00:58:05,693 --> 00:58:07,893 Speaker 6: having it and throw the cords at costous of that, 1209 00:58:08,613 --> 00:58:09,053 Speaker 6: I'll get. 1210 00:58:08,973 --> 00:58:12,373 Speaker 3: On you, right, Yeah, having that incentive, I can see 1211 00:58:12,373 --> 00:58:14,333 Speaker 3: how that would be that you say, hey, if you 1212 00:58:14,453 --> 00:58:18,253 Speaker 3: playball now, you know, it's almost like the that marshmallow experiment. 1213 00:58:18,293 --> 00:58:20,093 Speaker 3: Isn't it your playball now? And you're going to get 1214 00:58:20,093 --> 00:58:23,213 Speaker 3: a little bit extra on the weekend. Certainly a good strategy. 1215 00:58:23,213 --> 00:58:25,373 Speaker 3: But I don't know if Rick was talking about gaming, 1216 00:58:25,413 --> 00:58:28,093 Speaker 3: but that was always the one that got me as 1217 00:58:28,173 --> 00:58:31,413 Speaker 3: a kid was computer games and to have a time 1218 00:58:31,453 --> 00:58:32,933 Speaker 3: limit to say, right at the end of this hour, 1219 00:58:33,053 --> 00:58:34,813 Speaker 3: know whre snow butts. You've got to put that down. 1220 00:58:35,213 --> 00:58:37,133 Speaker 3: Really really upset me because you're in the middle of 1221 00:58:37,133 --> 00:58:39,373 Speaker 3: a mission. I like, mum, I've still going to finish 1222 00:58:39,413 --> 00:58:41,053 Speaker 3: this mission. I'm right in the middle. I can't save 1223 00:58:41,093 --> 00:58:42,853 Speaker 3: it right here. You've got to give me another twenty minutes, 1224 00:58:42,853 --> 00:58:44,693 Speaker 3: which that nut. If you don't get off, I'm going 1225 00:58:44,733 --> 00:58:45,333 Speaker 3: to cut the cord. 1226 00:58:45,613 --> 00:58:47,213 Speaker 2: I read this bot by this New Zealander I try 1227 00:58:47,253 --> 00:58:49,933 Speaker 2: to remember who he is. And it was on kids 1228 00:58:49,733 --> 00:58:53,093 Speaker 2: and anxiety and stuff. It's a great book. I think 1229 00:58:53,093 --> 00:58:54,893 Speaker 2: it was an ex policeman, but I look into it. 1230 00:58:54,893 --> 00:58:57,973 Speaker 2: But anyway, he was talking about one way to do 1231 00:58:58,133 --> 00:59:00,293 Speaker 2: kids is to ask them when do you think you'll 1232 00:59:00,293 --> 00:59:02,533 Speaker 2: be finished? So you can come over here to ask them. 1233 00:59:02,573 --> 00:59:06,773 Speaker 2: So nice because when you just grab it off them, 1234 00:59:07,173 --> 00:59:09,013 Speaker 2: I'll look it up. I look up the theory on it. 1235 00:59:09,173 --> 00:59:10,773 Speaker 2: When you just grab it off, and it creates an 1236 00:59:10,773 --> 00:59:13,813 Speaker 2: even bigger desire for it. Yeah, but if you put 1237 00:59:13,853 --> 00:59:16,973 Speaker 2: the agency on them so they choose when to get 1238 00:59:17,013 --> 00:59:19,973 Speaker 2: off it, then they get a buzz by doing the 1239 00:59:20,053 --> 00:59:22,213 Speaker 2: right thing. So they get a dopamine hit from doing 1240 00:59:22,213 --> 00:59:24,013 Speaker 2: the right thing and getting off and join the family. 1241 00:59:24,533 --> 00:59:26,333 Speaker 2: So if they're sitting there on it. You go, when 1242 00:59:26,333 --> 00:59:28,173 Speaker 2: do you think you come down and join the join 1243 00:59:28,253 --> 00:59:31,813 Speaker 2: the family. We're waiting for you. Then, I mean, this 1244 00:59:31,853 --> 00:59:34,333 Speaker 2: will sound naive to people have got you know, kids 1245 00:59:34,373 --> 00:59:36,213 Speaker 2: that are thirteen forty, and they go, this will never work. 1246 00:59:36,253 --> 00:59:38,533 Speaker 2: It sounds it sounds that the kids will just stay 1247 00:59:38,533 --> 00:59:40,813 Speaker 2: on there. But the theory on it is that they 1248 00:59:40,933 --> 00:59:42,973 Speaker 2: if you set up in a way that they can 1249 00:59:43,093 --> 00:59:45,253 Speaker 2: choose to do it, which may be the thing that 1250 00:59:45,373 --> 00:59:47,373 Speaker 2: you know with Reck was talking about because he choose, 1251 00:59:47,493 --> 00:59:49,133 Speaker 2: the kid could choose to go off and then he'd 1252 00:59:49,173 --> 00:59:50,973 Speaker 2: get the reward for it. Yeah, it was a bit 1253 00:59:50,973 --> 00:59:53,733 Speaker 2: more agency for the kid and as a result didn't 1254 00:59:53,773 --> 00:59:56,893 Speaker 2: create this crazy desire for it. 1255 00:59:57,013 --> 00:59:58,853 Speaker 3: Yeah, I can definitely see sense in that. Oh eight 1256 00:59:58,853 --> 01:00:01,013 Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty ten eighty is that number to call. 1257 01:00:01,253 --> 01:00:03,813 Speaker 3: I'd love to hear from you. If you've got young children, 1258 01:00:03,853 --> 01:00:05,933 Speaker 3: how do you get them off the screens? Nine two 1259 01:00:06,013 --> 01:00:07,773 Speaker 3: nine two is their text on me headlines with railing 1260 01:00:07,813 --> 01:00:09,533 Speaker 3: coming up off the guy is. 1261 01:00:11,973 --> 01:00:15,333 Speaker 12: Use talks at the headlines with blue bubble taxis it's 1262 01:00:15,453 --> 01:00:19,133 Speaker 12: no trouble with a blue bubble. A community's reeling after 1263 01:00:19,213 --> 01:00:21,533 Speaker 12: a man and three children have died in a house 1264 01:00:21,573 --> 01:00:25,293 Speaker 12: fire in Manu Witthu, Sanson on Saturday. Police say it's 1265 01:00:25,373 --> 01:00:28,893 Speaker 12: too early to determine the fire's cause. A call to 1266 01:00:28,973 --> 01:00:32,613 Speaker 12: join the movement embraced by New Zealand's first zero crystalline 1267 01:00:32,653 --> 01:00:36,133 Speaker 12: silica factory, which is open today in Nelson. It means 1268 01:00:36,173 --> 01:00:40,333 Speaker 12: staff don't risk getting the irreversible lung disease silicosis from 1269 01:00:40,333 --> 01:00:44,213 Speaker 12: working with engineered stone. The Greens are promising to revoke 1270 01:00:44,293 --> 01:00:48,093 Speaker 12: fast track permits for coal, hard rock, gold and seabed 1271 01:00:48,213 --> 01:00:51,493 Speaker 12: mining if it gets into government. It says mining doesn't 1272 01:00:51,493 --> 01:00:56,573 Speaker 12: provide job certainty and destroys the environment. Our population has 1273 01:00:56,613 --> 01:00:59,093 Speaker 12: grown less than one percent in the past year to 1274 01:00:59,173 --> 01:01:02,893 Speaker 12: about five point three million people. Fertilities fall into one 1275 01:01:02,893 --> 01:01:06,373 Speaker 12: point five to five births per woman, but infant mortality 1276 01:01:06,413 --> 01:01:09,413 Speaker 12: has risen from four point eight eight six deaths per 1277 01:01:09,493 --> 01:01:14,053 Speaker 12: one thousand live births to five point four four For 1278 01:01:14,333 --> 01:01:17,453 Speaker 12: surprise and cancer symptoms you should know about, according to 1279 01:01:17,453 --> 01:01:21,013 Speaker 12: an oncologist Seymour at zid Herald Premium.

Yes, the writer, the Kiwi guy X police officer. 1283 01:01:31,253 --> 01:01:34,773 Speaker 3: Right, yeah, I follow him on Facebook. Actually fascinating individual 1284 01:01:34,773 --> 01:01:36,733 Speaker 3: and he's just written a book. I think it's called 1285 01:01:36,773 --> 01:01:39,133 Speaker 3: It's a Worry about Anxiety and Younger People. 1286 01:01:39,333 --> 01:01:43,253 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's the book.

We wiring the 1295 01:02:06,613 --> 01:02:07,333 Speaker 3: brain so to speak. 1296 01:02:07,493 --> 01:02:11,853 Speaker 2: Yeah, what you say is when can you join us? 1297 01:02:11,893 --> 01:02:14,133 Speaker 2: When would you like to join us?

I think 1306 01:02:29,773 --> 01:02:31,693 Speaker 2: a lot of people would be shocked about the time 1307 01:02:31,733 --> 01:02:34,413 Speaker 2: spent by grown ups. Treva. Yeah, I mean that's the 1308 01:02:34,453 --> 01:02:36,773 Speaker 2: thing as well.

Thanks for calling us today. Your thoughts on this? 1320 01:03:01,933 --> 01:03:05,053 Speaker 14: It's interesting I can kind of say both sides. I've 1321 01:03:05,053 --> 01:03:10,093 Speaker 14: gotten eleven year old and a nine year old, and look, 1322 01:03:10,213 --> 01:03:15,133 Speaker 14: we tried our hardest. I'm an ex Eca teacher, and 1323 01:03:15,493 --> 01:03:17,813 Speaker 14: I understood the importance of you know, keeping the muth 1324 01:03:17,813 --> 01:03:20,413 Speaker 14: screens when they're younger, But it really does get harder 1325 01:03:20,493 --> 01:03:25,613 Speaker 14: once you start to work. I work full time shift work. 1326 01:03:25,893 --> 01:03:29,213 Speaker 14: My husband owns the gold business. You're running a house, 1327 01:03:29,253 --> 01:03:34,053 Speaker 14: you know, like it is really really hard. But I suppose, yes, 1328 01:03:34,133 --> 01:03:37,253 Speaker 14: there's that million dollar question as winners the right age, 1329 01:03:37,293 --> 01:03:40,453 Speaker 14: I don't know if there is. It does worry me 1330 01:03:40,493 --> 01:03:44,413 Speaker 14: sometimes when I see, you know, mums in the mall 1331 01:03:44,733 --> 01:03:47,533 Speaker 14: and there's you know, like an eighteen month old sitting 1332 01:03:47,533 --> 01:03:52,253 Speaker 14: in a pram, you know, holding a phone, watching watching YouTube, 1333 01:03:52,293 --> 01:03:55,213 Speaker 14: and you're just like, oh no, but you know she's 1334 01:03:55,253 --> 01:03:58,013 Speaker 14: having her downtime. But just to see way off one 1335 01:03:58,093 --> 01:04:00,613 Speaker 14: hundred percent agree with what you guys are talking about. 1336 01:04:00,653 --> 01:04:05,413 Speaker 14: In relation to last we were massive advocates for giving 1337 01:04:05,413 --> 01:04:08,973 Speaker 14: a time frame. Yes you can you can watch this, 1338 01:04:09,213 --> 01:04:11,373 Speaker 14: or you can go at this, but you have it 1339 01:04:11,413 --> 01:04:16,413 Speaker 14: for half an hour. I would always give a time warning, 1340 01:04:16,613 --> 01:04:18,133 Speaker 14: you know, like you've got five minutes or you've got 1341 01:04:18,173 --> 01:04:21,133 Speaker 14: ten minutes to go buddy. Yep, cool, awesome, Yep. Would 1342 01:04:21,133 --> 01:04:27,373 Speaker 14: still get the arguments. But your children thrive and crave 1343 01:04:27,933 --> 01:04:31,813 Speaker 14: routines and boundaries, so you sort of if you can 1344 01:04:31,893 --> 01:04:36,733 Speaker 14: encompass that and wrap them with those, I think sometimes 1345 01:04:36,733 --> 01:04:41,533 Speaker 14: it is easier to prive them away from those devices. 1346 01:04:41,613 --> 01:04:47,813 Speaker 14: But yeah, it's hard. It's hard, especially when they're they're 1347 01:04:48,613 --> 01:04:52,573 Speaker 14: being asked to have them at primary school from I 1348 01:04:52,613 --> 01:04:59,293 Speaker 14: believe it's year four and right through to Yeah, I 1349 01:04:59,333 --> 01:05:04,133 Speaker 14: spoke high school we've just transitioned to intermediate, and first 1350 01:05:04,213 --> 01:05:06,373 Speaker 14: year of intermediate, my son came home at the start 1351 01:05:06,373 --> 01:05:09,613 Speaker 14: of the year and said, everyone that's on their screens 1352 01:05:09,653 --> 01:05:11,973 Speaker 14: at lunch time. And I was like, no, what are 1353 01:05:11,973 --> 01:05:14,733 Speaker 14: we doing? What are we you know, what have we lost? 1354 01:05:15,013 --> 01:05:18,613 Speaker 14: We've lost that play and that children interacting with each 1355 01:05:18,653 --> 01:05:20,453 Speaker 14: other and they don't know how to talk to each other. 1356 01:05:22,493 --> 01:05:27,053 Speaker 2: It's a concern you talk about Renee about you know, parents, 1357 01:05:27,053 --> 01:05:30,013 Speaker 2: they're busy and they've got a lot of you know, 1358 01:05:30,253 --> 01:05:32,093 Speaker 2: they don't have a lot of time, they're tired, they're 1359 01:05:32,413 --> 01:05:34,573 Speaker 2: both parents working, all that, all that kind of stuff. 1360 01:05:35,813 --> 01:05:41,453 Speaker 2: But the study points out that it doesn't solve the 1361 01:05:41,533 --> 01:05:45,613 Speaker 2: problem because they become less and less able to entertain 1362 01:05:45,653 --> 01:05:49,573 Speaker 2: themselves and they need more and more to be entertained. 1363 01:05:49,573 --> 01:05:52,013 Speaker 2: So it's it's kind of end up biting you in 1364 01:05:52,173 --> 01:05:54,093 Speaker 2: the what's the same biting. 1365 01:05:53,893 --> 01:05:56,773 Speaker 14: You in the in the in the jackson. 1366 01:05:58,773 --> 01:06:01,893 Speaker 2: Or something, because because you know, if your kids, if 1367 01:06:01,893 --> 01:06:04,333 Speaker 2: your kids do get bored, and boredom is great for 1368 01:06:04,373 --> 01:06:07,053 Speaker 2: the mind, and and people invent things when they're boored, 1369 01:06:07,173 --> 01:06:10,293 Speaker 2: vent ideas, and so if they're always going to the 1370 01:06:10,373 --> 01:06:13,093 Speaker 2: phone or the going to the iPad, for their entertainment 1371 01:06:13,133 --> 01:06:15,133 Speaker 2: and they never learned that idea, so they're always going 1372 01:06:15,173 --> 01:06:17,133 Speaker 2: to have it and they're always going to be a problem. 1373 01:06:17,493 --> 01:06:21,053 Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean I remember, I remember, I remember 1374 01:06:21,093 --> 01:06:22,853 Speaker 2: my dad saying to me once I came into and 1375 01:06:22,933 --> 01:06:26,973 Speaker 2: I said it on board, and he said, that's interesting, board, 1376 01:06:26,973 --> 01:06:32,773 Speaker 2: go outside. And it was basically the idea that it's 1377 01:06:32,773 --> 01:06:34,893 Speaker 2: a new idea that your parents are in charge of 1378 01:06:35,013 --> 01:06:37,333 Speaker 2: entertaining you. Was what I would say. That is that 1379 01:06:37,573 --> 01:06:41,173 Speaker 2: is a new development that that kids that parents owe 1380 01:06:41,173 --> 01:06:43,933 Speaker 2: their kids not to be bored. Yeah, I mean, kild 1381 01:06:44,133 --> 01:06:47,093 Speaker 2: just be bored kids, that's that's not I'll put a 1382 01:06:47,173 --> 01:06:50,253 Speaker 2: roof of your head. I feared you. I love you. 1383 01:06:50,333 --> 01:06:52,733 Speaker 2: I'm a good parent, but I'm not your I'm not 1384 01:06:52,773 --> 01:06:54,133 Speaker 2: here to provide your entertainment. 1385 01:06:54,293 --> 01:06:56,533 Speaker 3: Spot on. That was it. It was my parents here, 1386 01:06:56,573 --> 01:06:58,053 Speaker 3: get out of the house. I don't care what you do, 1387 01:06:58,253 --> 01:06:59,933 Speaker 3: but you're not allowed in the house. It's a nice day, 1388 01:06:59,973 --> 01:07:01,853 Speaker 3: it's a weekend. Go and entertain yourself. 1389 01:07:02,413 --> 01:07:06,653 Speaker 14: Yeah, we are where we're from advocates. I'm firm, but 1390 01:07:06,773 --> 01:07:11,053 Speaker 14: fear i'd say appearance in the style. But you are right, 1391 01:07:11,773 --> 01:07:14,693 Speaker 14: you don't give them the skills to learn how to 1392 01:07:15,213 --> 01:07:22,333 Speaker 14: explore and interact and find fun and then they don't 1393 01:07:22,373 --> 01:07:25,333 Speaker 14: know how to do it. So yeah, in a way, 1394 01:07:25,373 --> 01:07:27,533 Speaker 14: you sort of are sending them up to style. But yeah, 1395 01:07:27,573 --> 01:07:31,093 Speaker 14: I've had that discussion on a constant basis with Miam, 1396 01:07:31,453 --> 01:07:34,293 Speaker 14: especially my eleven year old now because we don't do 1397 01:07:34,373 --> 01:07:37,293 Speaker 14: gaming or anything like that. There's no playchase, PlayStations or 1398 01:07:37,333 --> 01:07:39,733 Speaker 14: anything like that. So but yeah, I'm just like, well, 1399 01:07:39,773 --> 01:07:41,333 Speaker 14: I don't really care. You can go and find something 1400 01:07:41,333 --> 01:07:44,213 Speaker 14: to do. You know how to find done, so sort 1401 01:07:44,213 --> 01:07:47,973 Speaker 14: of go and find it. But yeah, it's it's hard. 1402 01:07:48,053 --> 01:07:50,733 Speaker 14: It's hard. I think it's hard being appearing in the 1403 01:07:50,813 --> 01:07:51,933 Speaker 14: stand age unfortunately. 1404 01:07:52,173 --> 01:07:55,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it is. Well, there's expectations on parents as well. 1405 01:07:56,013 --> 01:07:58,853 Speaker 2: I mean, I know I just thought about that but 1406 01:07:59,093 --> 01:08:01,253 Speaker 2: until just recently, but there was never an expectation on 1407 01:08:01,333 --> 01:08:05,253 Speaker 2: my parents to entertain me and never ever ever thought 1408 01:08:05,333 --> 01:08:07,693 Speaker 2: that that was their job. Yeah, and they were great parents. 1409 01:08:07,773 --> 01:08:11,333 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, but that is now and if you take 1410 01:08:11,333 --> 01:08:14,053 Speaker 2: a kid out to a restaurant, then the expectation is 1411 01:08:14,093 --> 01:08:16,213 Speaker 2: that you entertain them because you know, mum and dad 1412 01:08:16,213 --> 01:08:19,572 Speaker 2: are having dinner or whatever. You're having dinner with your friends, 1413 01:08:19,773 --> 01:08:22,612 Speaker 2: So the expectation is that your kids couldn't possibly sit 1414 01:08:22,693 --> 01:08:26,013 Speaker 2: there and entertain themselves without being a dick. It's like, no, 1415 01:08:26,133 --> 01:08:28,892 Speaker 2: you're at a restaurant, eat some food and shut up. 1416 01:08:29,013 --> 01:08:31,013 Speaker 3: Yeah, play the little maids that you used to get 1417 01:08:31,013 --> 01:08:31,372 Speaker 3: in common. 1418 01:08:31,412 --> 01:08:31,572 Speaker 6: Go. 1419 01:08:31,732 --> 01:08:34,492 Speaker 3: But you're right. Whenever I said I'm bored, the answer 1420 01:08:34,532 --> 01:08:37,972 Speaker 3: I got was not my problem. Go and figure something out, Mike. 1421 01:08:38,013 --> 01:08:40,692 Speaker 2: I always thought taking my kids out to restaurants was 1422 01:08:40,732 --> 01:08:43,013 Speaker 2: a treat for them. But as they've gotten older, they 1423 01:08:43,053 --> 01:08:45,333 Speaker 2: both of them said to me, oh god, going for 1424 01:08:45,333 --> 01:08:48,532 Speaker 2: dinner was so boring. Just sitting there where mum and 1425 01:08:48,612 --> 01:08:51,412 Speaker 2: dad talked about stuff. It was so boring. We used 1426 01:08:51,412 --> 01:08:52,612 Speaker 2: to do read it. So, oh my god, you didn't 1427 01:08:52,652 --> 01:08:54,572 Speaker 2: like going to all those nice restaurants between you there, 1428 01:08:54,732 --> 01:08:55,412 Speaker 2: it was horrible. 1429 01:08:55,532 --> 01:08:57,692 Speaker 3: Spend all that money. Come on, mom and dad, wrap 1430 01:08:57,732 --> 01:08:59,612 Speaker 3: it up on board, all right. Take you more of 1431 01:08:59,652 --> 01:09:01,053 Speaker 3: your calls. We've got full boards at the moment. If 1432 01:09:01,093 --> 01:09:03,452 Speaker 3: you can't get through, keep trying. But screen time, what 1433 01:09:03,452 --> 01:09:05,572 Speaker 3: do you do in your household? Do you limit it? 1434 01:09:05,812 --> 01:09:08,452 Speaker 3: Or is it just a situation where you need to 1435 01:09:08,452 --> 01:09:10,133 Speaker 3: give the kids the iPad to get a bit of 1436 01:09:11,452 --> 01:09:14,053 Speaker 3: RNR So to speak, it is sixteen to three back 1437 01:09:14,053 --> 01:09:14,572 Speaker 3: in a mow. 1438 01:09:15,372 --> 01:09:17,812 Speaker 4: The issues that affect you and a bit of fun 1439 01:09:17,853 --> 01:09:21,732 Speaker 4: along the way. Matt Heath and Taylor Adams afternoons news talks. 1440 01:09:21,732 --> 01:09:25,333 Speaker 3: They'd be very good afternoon, ju it is thirteen to three, 1441 01:09:25,412 --> 01:09:28,053 Speaker 3: having a great discussion about screen time and kids. Some 1442 01:09:28,053 --> 01:09:31,452 Speaker 3: pretty alarming research coming out about what it does to kids' brains. 1443 01:09:31,492 --> 01:09:33,172 Speaker 3: But can you hear what you do in your household? 1444 01:09:33,333 --> 01:09:36,933 Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of scream time is making kids dumber. Unfortunately, 1445 01:09:37,412 --> 01:09:39,452 Speaker 2: give them both, but be smart about it. They need 1446 01:09:39,492 --> 01:09:42,213 Speaker 2: some time otherwise they get isolated from friends and trends. 1447 01:09:42,253 --> 01:09:45,492 Speaker 2: This is true, but make sure they're also getting their 1448 01:09:45,572 --> 01:09:50,012 Speaker 2: dose of outside time. Lego dolls, drawing, remote control cars, bikes, etc. 1449 01:09:50,612 --> 01:09:53,372 Speaker 2: Don't always have to be doing everything with them, but 1450 01:09:53,492 --> 01:09:56,532 Speaker 2: make sure they're available to them. That's an interesting one. 1451 01:09:56,572 --> 01:09:59,572 Speaker 2: I wonder because we all think Lego is great for kids, 1452 01:10:00,053 --> 01:10:02,093 Speaker 2: and I was obsessed with Lego and so are my kids. 1453 01:10:02,372 --> 01:10:03,172 Speaker 2: Says absolutely. 1454 01:10:03,173 --> 01:10:03,452 Speaker 9: Sis. 1455 01:10:03,853 --> 01:10:05,852 Speaker 2: We've got a Lego Avalanche at our house. 1456 01:10:05,853 --> 01:10:07,612 Speaker 3: It's a great thing Lego, But as. 1457 01:10:07,532 --> 01:10:09,772 Speaker 2: Minecraft, you need to from from Lego. I mean, you 1458 01:10:09,772 --> 01:10:13,572 Speaker 2: know that there are better things online than other things online, right, Yeah? 1459 01:10:13,732 --> 01:10:16,572 Speaker 2: Just watching some punishing video online is pretty bad or 1460 01:10:16,612 --> 01:10:19,253 Speaker 2: playing like a really stupid game, but created there are 1461 01:10:19,293 --> 01:10:20,852 Speaker 2: creative games online, yep. 1462 01:10:20,973 --> 01:10:23,932 Speaker 3: And games do wonderful things for the brain within moderation, 1463 01:10:24,093 --> 01:10:27,372 Speaker 3: as you say, certain games like Minecraft. Clearly, I think 1464 01:10:27,412 --> 01:10:30,293 Speaker 3: there are studies when you look at Minecraft creative games. Yeah, yeah, 1465 01:10:30,492 --> 01:10:31,612 Speaker 3: those great things for the brain. 1466 01:10:31,732 --> 01:10:33,732 Speaker 2: So it might not just be the time, it's actually 1467 01:10:33,732 --> 01:10:36,532 Speaker 2: what they're doing online as as well. 1468 01:10:37,372 --> 01:10:38,173 Speaker 3: Stu, how are you? 1469 01:10:39,812 --> 01:10:40,293 Speaker 11: Oh good? 1470 01:10:40,333 --> 01:10:44,293 Speaker 15: Thanks Toyler.

I 1471 01:10:44,333 --> 01:10:50,892 Speaker 15: think I'm sixty five, and I just I don't think 1472 01:10:50,933 --> 01:10:53,652 Speaker 15: we're in a position to judge this too too much 1473 01:10:53,732 --> 01:10:57,012 Speaker 15: because you know, when I was ten, my grandparents told 1474 01:10:57,053 --> 01:10:59,972 Speaker 15: me I shouldn't listen to the radio because it's going. 1475 01:10:59,893 --> 01:11:00,333 Speaker 11: To drive me. 1476 01:11:02,213 --> 01:11:03,053 Speaker 2: Good advice, you know. 1477 01:11:03,213 --> 01:11:08,732 Speaker 15: And things have changed, are changing so quickly that who's 1478 01:11:08,772 --> 01:11:10,972 Speaker 15: to say that we know the answers. I'm not being, 1479 01:11:11,452 --> 01:11:15,412 Speaker 15: you know, like born in nineteen sixty There's been so 1480 01:11:15,492 --> 01:11:18,932 Speaker 15: much change in my life in my lifetime. I can 1481 01:11:18,933 --> 01:11:21,133 Speaker 15: remember in color TV can ballets, to can watch the 1482 01:11:21,213 --> 01:11:24,293 Speaker 15: test the test pattern on my sister's TV because it 1483 01:11:24,412 --> 01:11:28,333 Speaker 15: was such an amazing thing to see. And now and 1484 01:11:28,372 --> 01:11:31,973 Speaker 15: now things are evolving so quickly that our kids are 1485 01:11:31,973 --> 01:11:35,972 Speaker 15: at school learning about jobs, that the learning stuff that's 1486 01:11:36,013 --> 01:11:38,412 Speaker 15: obsolete by the time they finish school because things have 1487 01:11:38,492 --> 01:11:41,253 Speaker 15: changed so much. And so if we've got all these 1488 01:11:41,293 --> 01:11:44,173 Speaker 15: screens and things here, it's a balancing thing. But when 1489 01:11:44,213 --> 01:11:45,333 Speaker 15: I was a kid, we used to go out and 1490 01:11:45,333 --> 01:11:46,653 Speaker 15: shoot shoot. 1491 01:11:46,333 --> 01:11:50,692 Speaker 2: People, not people, right, yeah, you know what you played war? 1492 01:11:51,732 --> 01:11:57,652 Speaker 15: We played war or the names we're not know And 1493 01:11:57,732 --> 01:12:00,253 Speaker 15: so all that happens now is we swap it for 1494 01:12:00,812 --> 01:12:03,052 Speaker 15: a screen and we blow people up and shoot people 1495 01:12:03,133 --> 01:12:06,173 Speaker 15: and all those things. And so it's a balancing thing, 1496 01:12:06,253 --> 01:12:10,732 Speaker 15: isn't it. I mean, it's certainly not a it's certainly 1497 01:12:10,772 --> 01:12:14,572 Speaker 15: not a place to just throw the kids to look after, 1498 01:12:15,452 --> 01:12:17,812 Speaker 15: for them to be looked after instead of the baby 1499 01:12:17,853 --> 01:12:20,732 Speaker 15: system because you haven't got time to do it. You know, 1500 01:12:20,812 --> 01:12:23,973 Speaker 15: my son, his grand kids they're at the rugby the 1501 01:12:24,013 --> 01:12:25,732 Speaker 15: other day, at the rugby League tongue. 1502 01:12:25,812 --> 01:12:26,372 Speaker 11: Some are. 1503 01:12:28,133 --> 01:12:31,452 Speaker 15: No, no, no, some are in New Zealand game and 1504 01:12:34,133 --> 01:12:37,252 Speaker 15: but they still have screen time. But it's about balancing, 1505 01:12:37,253 --> 01:12:37,932 Speaker 15: it has to be. 1506 01:12:39,013 --> 01:12:41,892 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's there's no doubt that there's Adults and older 1507 01:12:41,893 --> 01:12:44,213 Speaker 2: people have always been panicking about the state of what 1508 01:12:44,333 --> 01:12:47,093 Speaker 2: kids have been doing. I've told the story before on 1509 01:12:47,173 --> 01:12:50,013 Speaker 2: the show that my mum, her dad used to yell 1510 01:12:50,053 --> 01:12:52,692 Speaker 2: at her for reading too much. Get outside, you're reading 1511 01:12:52,732 --> 01:12:55,572 Speaker 2: too much. So you know, it's always it's always been 1512 01:12:55,612 --> 01:12:58,173 Speaker 2: the case, and you know, you read all the way 1513 01:12:58,213 --> 01:13:00,772 Speaker 2: back to ancient Rome. There's older people complaining about the 1514 01:13:00,812 --> 01:13:03,572 Speaker 2: kids not being disciplined enough, and they're you know, learning 1515 01:13:03,612 --> 01:13:06,812 Speaker 2: to fight properly, So there's no doubt about it. I 1516 01:13:06,853 --> 01:13:09,013 Speaker 2: guess with this thing that's a bit different, stew is 1517 01:13:09,013 --> 01:13:13,372 Speaker 2: that the entertainment on these iPads is just so entertaining, 1518 01:13:13,853 --> 01:13:18,333 Speaker 2: that the and the dopamine hits are so big that 1519 01:13:19,412 --> 01:13:23,732 Speaker 2: and everything is provided for them within them that nothing 1520 01:13:23,732 --> 01:13:27,412 Speaker 2: else can compare in terms of entertainment value. So you 1521 01:13:27,452 --> 01:13:30,452 Speaker 2: talk about running around and playing while we used to 1522 01:13:30,492 --> 01:13:32,492 Speaker 2: call it war when I was a kid, you had 1523 01:13:32,532 --> 01:13:34,732 Speaker 2: to make the rules up and you had to interact 1524 01:13:34,732 --> 01:13:36,412 Speaker 2: with the other kids. You had to invent the game 1525 01:13:36,612 --> 01:13:41,933 Speaker 2: pretty much. And that's using intelligence and developing intelligence and 1526 01:13:41,973 --> 01:13:45,412 Speaker 2: developing social skills and things that you can use utilize 1527 01:13:45,492 --> 01:13:49,492 Speaker 2: later in life and workplaces or you know, throughout your life, 1528 01:13:49,572 --> 01:13:52,452 Speaker 2: which maybe isn't the case when you're just playing a 1529 01:13:52,492 --> 01:13:56,333 Speaker 2: game on an iPad or entertainment iPad that is just 1530 01:13:56,532 --> 01:13:59,973 Speaker 2: engineered by large corporations to be so addictive and so 1531 01:14:00,013 --> 01:14:04,973 Speaker 2: exciting that you know, it's sort of zombie. ZOMBI sifies you. So, 1532 01:14:05,333 --> 01:14:07,932 Speaker 2: I don't know. Parents have always been worrying, and adults 1533 01:14:07,973 --> 01:14:10,412 Speaker 2: have already worrying about kids. But that doesn't mean that 1534 01:14:10,452 --> 01:14:13,652 Speaker 2: at some point the worry is justified, if you know 1535 01:14:13,692 --> 01:14:14,013 Speaker 2: what I mean. 1536 01:14:14,853 --> 01:14:17,372 Speaker 15: It's balanced, though, isn't it. I mean, how many times 1537 01:14:17,492 --> 01:14:20,333 Speaker 15: you've taken your kids out for dinner and I've done 1538 01:14:20,372 --> 01:14:22,732 Speaker 15: the same and you sit there and other people out 1539 01:14:22,772 --> 01:14:25,053 Speaker 15: as a family, four of them, mom and dad and 1540 01:14:25,053 --> 01:14:26,812 Speaker 15: two kids, and everyone's on the device. 1541 01:14:27,013 --> 01:14:28,692 Speaker 2: Yeah, suppressing, So. 1542 01:14:29,933 --> 01:14:33,053 Speaker 15: Yeah, and they don't care. That's what they do. So 1543 01:14:33,333 --> 01:14:35,532 Speaker 15: it's about you're going to You've got different skills of 1544 01:14:35,612 --> 01:14:39,092 Speaker 15: parents brought up in different ways where they want to limit, 1545 01:14:39,133 --> 01:14:43,652 Speaker 15: they want to develop the things that kids are exposed to, 1546 01:14:44,133 --> 01:14:46,652 Speaker 15: and others don't give a crap because it just makes 1547 01:14:46,692 --> 01:14:47,213 Speaker 15: them quiet. 1548 01:14:47,652 --> 01:14:50,013 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, Well that's true, isn't it. There's always there's 1549 01:14:50,053 --> 01:14:52,932 Speaker 2: always been that. There's always been parents that give more 1550 01:14:52,973 --> 01:14:55,972 Speaker 2: and less of a crap. Yeah, what's going on exactly? 1551 01:14:56,772 --> 01:14:58,253 Speaker 3: There would have been a lot of parents out there, 1552 01:14:58,293 --> 01:15:00,093 Speaker 3: Stew that said to their kids back in your day, 1553 01:15:00,133 --> 01:15:02,093 Speaker 3: you can listen to all the radio you want, even 1554 01:15:02,093 --> 01:15:04,372 Speaker 3: if it's bad for your ears, whereas your parents said, no, 1555 01:15:04,532 --> 01:15:05,812 Speaker 3: only so much radio, stew. 1556 01:15:07,372 --> 01:15:12,772 Speaker 15: But you know my grandparents to be fair.

So, Look, 1718 01:22:14,133 --> 01:22:17,053 Speaker 5: I think the thing is is my girlfriends, though I'm 1719 01:22:17,372 --> 01:22:21,052 Speaker 5: a fully you know, long term relationship being together between years. 1720 01:22:21,213 --> 01:22:24,333 Speaker 5: I've got a number of female friends around my age 1721 01:22:24,333 --> 01:22:26,612 Speaker 5: group from ound in the fifties, and all they're saying 1722 01:22:26,652 --> 01:22:29,572 Speaker 5: is that they can't find a decent man because the 1723 01:22:29,612 --> 01:22:32,532 Speaker 5: guys their age are looking for the younger woman and 1724 01:22:32,572 --> 01:22:35,692 Speaker 5: then only the old cottus they are out there, and 1725 01:22:35,772 --> 01:22:38,972 Speaker 5: so it's really difficult. I think it's a it's a 1726 01:22:38,973 --> 01:22:42,132 Speaker 5: it's a two way thing. I mean, women are fairly 1727 01:22:42,213 --> 01:22:44,412 Speaker 5: in the fend of these days. So if you want 1728 01:22:44,412 --> 01:22:46,012 Speaker 5: to weekened miles a woman within. 1729 01:22:45,933 --> 01:22:47,892 Speaker 15: Go, Yeah, it's pretty difficult. 1730 01:22:47,933 --> 01:22:48,213 Speaker 6: I think. 1731 01:22:48,253 --> 01:22:50,053 Speaker 11: I think it's both sides that both think it's just 1732 01:22:50,253 --> 01:22:51,293 Speaker 11: few With me, I. 1733 01:22:51,253 --> 01:22:53,973 Speaker 5: Think the women need to calm down a bit and 1734 01:22:54,093 --> 01:22:58,293 Speaker 5: balance out their needs and requirements rather than just depending. 1735 01:22:57,812 --> 01:22:58,253 Speaker 17: On the guy. 1736 01:22:58,372 --> 01:23:01,732 Speaker 5: You know, they need to you know, be themselves rather 1737 01:23:01,853 --> 01:23:04,532 Speaker 5: than rely on a guy to buy them flowers and 1738 01:23:04,893 --> 01:23:07,172 Speaker 5: things like that. So I think it's a two way stress. 1739 01:23:08,452 --> 01:23:11,572 Speaker 2: If you're if you're looking for a person you want 1740 01:23:11,612 --> 01:23:12,772 Speaker 2: to spend a lot of time with, I mean as 1741 01:23:12,772 --> 01:23:15,852 Speaker 2: opposed to just hook up apps or whatever or hooking up. 1742 01:23:16,412 --> 01:23:19,652 Speaker 2: Don't you want someone that's willing to show that. Isn't 1743 01:23:19,652 --> 01:23:21,492 Speaker 2: that part of it? You know, the man paying for 1744 01:23:21,532 --> 01:23:25,052 Speaker 2: dinner and flowers and stuff part showing that they're willing 1745 01:23:25,053 --> 01:23:25,892 Speaker 2: to make an investment. 1746 01:23:27,093 --> 01:23:30,812 Speaker 5: What's happening well, perstly for me and my friends, know, 1747 01:23:30,933 --> 01:23:34,852 Speaker 5: because we're abviously independent and we probably earned quite a 1748 01:23:34,933 --> 01:23:37,812 Speaker 5: decent amount of money, we're not into that. I think 1749 01:23:37,853 --> 01:23:42,652 Speaker 5: it's more around the emotional intelligence. There's more more algo 1750 01:23:42,853 --> 01:23:44,652 Speaker 5: rather than you know, for a lying on a guy. 1751 01:23:44,692 --> 01:23:47,372 Speaker 5: I think it's just having somebody that's on the same 1752 01:23:47,492 --> 01:23:50,973 Speaker 5: level and don't think they're around, especially in the perspects 1753 01:23:51,213 --> 01:23:54,133 Speaker 5: I'll be honest with you. You know, why would you go 1754 01:23:54,253 --> 01:23:55,732 Speaker 5: for somebody your own mayor if you can go for 1755 01:23:55,772 --> 01:23:58,973 Speaker 5: somebody younger and so being you end up with the 1756 01:23:59,053 --> 01:24:01,692 Speaker 5: really old ones like the sixty bis No, no, just 1757 01:24:02,253 --> 01:24:05,372 Speaker 5: sixty five year olds.

Do you also want to go 1760 01:24:11,412 --> 01:24:16,093 Speaker 2: younger or is it only only the dirty old men? 1761 01:24:18,253 --> 01:24:18,452 Speaker 17: No? 1762 01:24:18,812 --> 01:24:21,252 Speaker 5: I no, No, you wouldn't want to go younger. 1763 01:24:21,293 --> 01:24:25,173 Speaker 3: Yeah, because that would be where the emotional immaturity comes in. 1764 01:24:25,213 --> 01:24:27,732 Speaker 3: That if you are like, what's her name actually in 1765 01:24:27,772 --> 01:24:30,652 Speaker 3: this article and she's going ten years to junior, then 1766 01:24:30,732 --> 01:24:32,813 Speaker 3: that might be a problem there with the old immaturity, 1767 01:24:34,213 --> 01:24:34,852 Speaker 3: that's a problem. 1768 01:24:35,213 --> 01:24:38,532 Speaker 5: Look in the mirror.

And then when I met 1788 01:25:31,933 --> 01:25:34,173 Speaker 3: Mayve and she takes back straight away that this is 1789 01:25:34,173 --> 01:25:36,492 Speaker 3: the one, this is it, this is the girl, because 1790 01:25:36,532 --> 01:25:38,492 Speaker 3: there was no you know that the games just are 1791 01:25:38,572 --> 01:25:40,652 Speaker 3: so weird, like, well, why I put all those rules 1792 01:25:40,652 --> 01:25:42,572 Speaker 3: in place. Does it make you seem too eager? If 1793 01:25:42,572 --> 01:25:49,732 Speaker 3: you apply too fast. 1794 01:25:46,853 --> 01:25:49,173 Speaker 5: You might be limited the time. 1795 01:25:50,372 --> 01:25:54,612 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, thanks for you call Mary. This person is 1796 01:25:54,612 --> 01:25:56,612 Speaker 2: an interesting point. The problem is we women tend not 1797 01:25:56,652 --> 01:25:59,173 Speaker 2: to like a man romantically the first time we meet them. 1798 01:25:59,612 --> 01:26:02,213 Speaker 2: We need to persevere a few more dates, and we 1799 01:26:02,213 --> 01:26:04,852 Speaker 2: shouldn't expect me to pay for dinner on these early dates. 1800 01:26:04,893 --> 01:26:07,452 Speaker 2: From apps, men, you need to stop paying for everything 1801 01:26:07,532 --> 01:26:09,692 Speaker 2: as most women have made up their mind that aren't 1802 01:26:09,732 --> 01:26:12,213 Speaker 2: going to date the man anyway, you'd still expect a 1803 01:26:12,253 --> 01:26:15,572 Speaker 2: free meal, So try to establish if you're having a 1804 01:26:15,612 --> 01:26:18,213 Speaker 2: second date or not before paying the bill. So that's 1805 01:26:18,213 --> 01:26:21,213 Speaker 2: from Samantha. But that's an interesting idea though, because I 1806 01:26:21,213 --> 01:26:23,452 Speaker 2: would think that you have to don't. 1807 01:26:23,253 --> 01:26:26,412 Speaker 3: You pay, because that's it'sactional like this, you know, because 1808 01:26:26,412 --> 01:26:28,412 Speaker 3: that's saying I'm only going to pay for this meal. 1809 01:26:28,452 --> 01:26:30,892 Speaker 3: If you agree to a second date, I'll just pay anyway, 1810 01:26:31,013 --> 01:26:32,772 Speaker 3: with the rest that it might not work out. 1811 01:26:32,772 --> 01:26:36,572 Speaker 2: If you ask someone out on the date, right then 1812 01:26:36,612 --> 01:26:38,932 Speaker 2: you have to pay because you've asked them out, and 1813 01:26:39,253 --> 01:26:43,532 Speaker 2: then you know wherever it's going because you've you've you 1814 01:26:43,532 --> 01:26:45,333 Speaker 2: have asked them to go out of their way to 1815 01:26:45,333 --> 01:26:47,732 Speaker 2: spend some time with you, so you pay for it. 1816 01:26:47,893 --> 01:26:48,732 Speaker 2: That's the way it. 1817 01:26:48,692 --> 01:26:51,173 Speaker 3: Works, even vice versa though. I mean, like, if I 1818 01:26:51,213 --> 01:26:52,932 Speaker 3: was in that situation and the woman asked me out 1819 01:26:52,933 --> 01:26:55,572 Speaker 3: for a date, I think I'd still like to pay. 1820 01:26:56,013 --> 01:26:57,652 Speaker 2: Yeah, oh yeah, you got to pay if you're the guy. 1821 01:26:57,732 --> 01:27:01,892 Speaker 3: Yeah, of course, where you know, there's not being weirdly chivalrous, 1822 01:27:01,893 --> 01:27:03,532 Speaker 3: and that's just the thing that you've got to do. 1823 01:27:03,812 --> 01:27:07,093 Speaker 3: You can't allow the female to pay on the first date. 1824 01:27:07,173 --> 01:27:10,492 Speaker 3: That's crazy talk. You'll never see them again. You've never 1825 01:27:10,532 --> 01:27:12,933 Speaker 3: see them again at all.

Yeah, it's just 1831 01:27:23,213 --> 01:27:25,093 Speaker 2: pay for the date because you've gone out on it. 1832 01:27:25,133 --> 01:27:27,812 Speaker 2: Just pay for it, shut up.

Keep those teaks coming through, Melena, how are you. 2099 01:40:15,973 --> 01:40:18,932 Speaker 3: I'm good, Thank you, very nice to chat with you. 2100 01:40:19,013 --> 01:40:22,812 Speaker 3: So you a migrant to New Zealand, but you've been 2101 01:40:22,853 --> 01:40:28,853 Speaker 3: here for twenty years. You're originally from Columbia, is it right, Yeah, yeah, Columbia, fantastic. 2102 01:40:28,893 --> 01:40:32,092 Speaker 3: So you've been single for two years. How is your 2103 01:40:32,133 --> 01:40:35,812 Speaker 3: your dating life at the moment? Molina? Okay. 2104 01:40:35,933 --> 01:40:41,852 Speaker 16: So I go on and off these apps and later 2105 01:40:42,053 --> 01:40:44,532 Speaker 16: be using Hinge because it's a little bit more. It's 2106 01:40:44,572 --> 01:40:47,612 Speaker 16: got a lot of more settings. You can enter things 2107 01:40:47,652 --> 01:40:50,492 Speaker 16: like you have kids, you don't have kids, use a smoke, 2108 01:40:50,532 --> 01:40:54,133 Speaker 16: you don't smoke. So it's kind of like they said, 2109 01:40:54,213 --> 01:40:56,852 Speaker 16: settings that you can at a glance, you get a 2110 01:40:57,013 --> 01:41:01,253 Speaker 16: feel for the person that you're looking at. And so 2111 01:41:02,093 --> 01:41:06,253 Speaker 16: I get very discouraged because most of the time people 2112 01:41:06,333 --> 01:41:10,492 Speaker 16: just don't get up to you or really the texting 2113 01:41:10,732 --> 01:41:12,492 Speaker 16: back and forth, something I don't really like. 2114 01:41:12,572 --> 01:41:13,253 Speaker 14: I much. 2115 01:41:13,372 --> 01:41:16,052 Speaker 16: Rather, I prefer to go and meet someone straight away. 2116 01:41:16,133 --> 01:41:19,772 Speaker 16: So what I usually do is, but like someone, I go, uh, 2117 01:41:19,853 --> 01:41:21,772 Speaker 16: would you like to grab a coffee after a couple 2118 01:41:21,772 --> 01:41:26,173 Speaker 16: of texts? Because I can't be bothered texting back and forth. 2119 01:41:26,572 --> 01:41:29,532 Speaker 16: So that's what I do. But what I find in 2120 01:41:29,612 --> 01:41:32,652 Speaker 16: terms of what are you're talking about about paying is 2121 01:41:32,692 --> 01:41:36,133 Speaker 16: that in my opinions, I can see both sides of 2122 01:41:36,133 --> 01:41:39,372 Speaker 16: the stories. I mean, like back back in Columbia, usually 2123 01:41:39,452 --> 01:41:43,093 Speaker 16: I always paid for the to go in on a 2124 01:41:43,253 --> 01:41:46,732 Speaker 16: thirst day. But here I kind of I sort of 2125 01:41:46,772 --> 01:41:49,452 Speaker 16: get the fact that if you're a guy and you're 2126 01:41:49,492 --> 01:41:51,892 Speaker 16: always expected to pay, it can be it can be 2127 01:41:52,013 --> 01:41:54,652 Speaker 16: very costly. And also for a girl, it creates a 2128 01:41:54,692 --> 01:41:57,732 Speaker 16: little bit of an expectation that if you if you 2129 01:41:58,452 --> 01:42:00,692 Speaker 16: if the guys are paying, that you re sort of 2130 01:42:00,772 --> 01:42:02,892 Speaker 16: like feel like you have to see them again. So 2131 01:42:02,973 --> 01:42:05,372 Speaker 16: what I do usually is that if I if I 2132 01:42:05,412 --> 01:42:08,892 Speaker 16: want to see somebody again and they of to pay, 2133 01:42:09,093 --> 01:42:14,173 Speaker 16: then I let them pay, so that if the opportunity 2134 01:42:14,213 --> 01:42:16,812 Speaker 16: comes again and we go out together, I get the 2135 01:42:16,893 --> 01:42:19,412 Speaker 16: chance to pay as well. But what I don't like 2136 01:42:19,812 --> 01:42:22,812 Speaker 16: is when guys actually don't even bother to ask you. 2137 01:42:23,293 --> 01:42:26,532 Speaker 16: I like to have the option because it just really 2138 01:42:26,893 --> 01:42:32,173 Speaker 16: comes across as the guys are real gentlemen and and 2139 01:42:32,213 --> 01:42:35,013 Speaker 16: so I've had instances where he's just the guy just 2140 01:42:35,053 --> 01:42:37,133 Speaker 16: sits behind him for a coffee, just waiting for you 2141 01:42:37,173 --> 01:42:40,412 Speaker 16: to pay first. And this is just really awful. I 2142 01:42:41,293 --> 01:42:44,053 Speaker 16: had that happened in the last couple of dates, and 2143 01:42:44,133 --> 01:42:47,652 Speaker 16: I gave the guy the benefit of the doubt. But 2144 01:42:47,812 --> 01:42:51,932 Speaker 16: even going out for drinks, he will be there first, 2145 01:42:51,933 --> 01:42:54,213 Speaker 16: that he will be eating, and he will even not 2146 01:42:54,333 --> 01:42:58,053 Speaker 16: offer what he was eating. And I think this was 2147 01:42:58,133 --> 01:43:04,492 Speaker 16: just and I just I really wanted to give him 2148 01:43:05,013 --> 01:43:08,732 Speaker 16: another chance because I actually liked him, and this very 2149 01:43:08,772 --> 01:43:12,453 Speaker 16: few chances where you find someone that you like physically 2150 01:43:12,492 --> 01:43:16,172 Speaker 16: and as so full as it sounds, it's very shallow, 2151 01:43:16,532 --> 01:43:20,652 Speaker 16: but you you can't in my opinion, I just I 2152 01:43:20,772 --> 01:43:23,572 Speaker 16: have to be there that chemistry, that physical chemistry, because 2153 01:43:23,572 --> 01:43:26,812 Speaker 16: you don't have the organic meetings that used to happen 2154 01:43:26,893 --> 01:43:29,652 Speaker 16: back in the day where you met people are your 2155 01:43:29,692 --> 01:43:33,492 Speaker 16: friends and where you were at UNI or as. Yeah, 2156 01:43:33,652 --> 01:43:34,612 Speaker 16: that's that sort of thing. 2157 01:43:34,732 --> 01:43:38,213 Speaker 2: Anyway, what about if so you know you you said 2158 01:43:38,213 --> 01:43:40,333 Speaker 2: that you want them to offer the opportunity. But what 2159 01:43:40,452 --> 01:43:42,612 Speaker 2: if say he just got up and went and paid 2160 01:43:42,652 --> 01:43:44,732 Speaker 2: and came back to the table and said, of paid, 2161 01:43:44,732 --> 01:43:46,412 Speaker 2: would that be right? So it hasn't offered you the 2162 01:43:46,452 --> 01:43:48,892 Speaker 2: opportunity pay. He's just taken out of your hands and paid. 2163 01:43:48,973 --> 01:43:50,213 Speaker 2: Is that okay for you? 2164 01:43:51,732 --> 01:43:59,092 Speaker 16: Well, that's okay for me. But that never happened. That happens. 2165 01:43:59,213 --> 01:44:02,612 Speaker 16: That happens with friends, and has got close key with friends, 2166 01:44:02,732 --> 01:44:06,733 Speaker 16: and they are absolutely generous, and this is really beautiful 2167 01:44:06,812 --> 01:44:09,892 Speaker 16: and I really appreciate that, and I have I like 2168 01:44:09,973 --> 01:44:12,693 Speaker 16: to have the opportunity to also return the favor. But 2169 01:44:12,692 --> 01:44:16,492 Speaker 16: but it's just the fact that I like to be asked, 2170 01:44:16,933 --> 01:44:19,173 Speaker 16: even if I want to pay, I like to be asked, 2171 01:44:19,893 --> 01:44:22,093 Speaker 16: you know. And then if I like the person, I 2172 01:44:22,133 --> 01:44:26,253 Speaker 16: go thank you yes. And also you just go for 2173 01:44:26,333 --> 01:44:28,692 Speaker 16: a coffee or a drink and you just don't going fourteenner. 2174 01:44:28,732 --> 01:44:31,293 Speaker 16: I don't like going forteen It's because if I don't 2175 01:44:31,372 --> 01:44:32,812 Speaker 16: like the person, I don't want to see there for 2176 01:44:32,853 --> 01:44:34,932 Speaker 16: two hours.
