We carried on from Melbourne, 15 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 2: which class half full ended better than it started. I mean, yes, 16 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 2: we lost ultimately, but we lost in the first half 17 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 2: but won the second half. Brisbane had that same bogey 18 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 2: man aura about them, didn't they They were hot favorites. 19 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 2: Conditions were dreadful. Question again over Luke Metcalf He clearly 20 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 2: can't keeck her. If he can, he doesn't show it 21 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 2: in games. The question is what to do. He leaves 22 00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 2: points on the table every game. We wouldn't have even 23 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 2: gone to our extra time, of course if he had 24 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 2: kicked more than the twenty percent he did on Saturday. 25 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 2: But another question, does the half way kick to win 26 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 2: the game forgive the others he missed? Also another Metcalf question. 27 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 2: In the runaway try where he shadowed cape Well who 28 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 2: ran sixty meters, is that the sort of awareness and 29 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 2: skill that can forgive him his inability to kick? And 30 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 2: that's before we get to all the players who were 31 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 2: actually there because of injury. So a depleted side were 32 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 2: a kicker who can't kick in shocking conditions against the 33 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,760 Speaker 2: hottest pop favorites and we win. How good? What we 34 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 2: did have was enthusiasm and determination. We didn't repeat the 35 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 2: Melbourne start, and when the second half came along, we 36 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,199 Speaker 2: didn't capitulate the way we used to in seasons past. 37 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 2: You might want to look at the table. If you haven't, 38 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 2: we are on the Hosking way of looking at it anyway, second, well, third, 39 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 2: officially anyway.

But this business of the US, 127 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 2: the US dollar, our trust and love of the US, 128 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 2: where are we at with all of that. 129 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 11: Trust seems to be at a very very low EBB 130 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 11: right now, Mike. Over the weekend, Donald Trump had a 131 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,479 Speaker 11: bit more to say about the performance of his FED chair, 132 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 11: and particularly he attacked him quite a bit, suggested that 133 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 11: he was usually too slow to action, and this particular case, 134 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 11: he's been talking about the need to interest rate cuts. 135 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 11: Trump's view, for example, is that there'll be non flesh 136 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 11: coming from his tariffs and that the economy should be 137 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:50,160 Speaker 11: seeing lower interest rates as a result. So that, combined 138 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 11: with the fact that he was saying that he would 139 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 11: like to look at getting rid of Powell early and 140 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 11: potentially installing a new candidate. There's an ex FED governor, 141 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 11: Kevin Walsh, who has been proposed as the shadow chair. 142 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 11: All of this has really destabilized confidence in US markets 143 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 11: over the weekend. So hence we've got a week a 144 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 11: US dollar across the board, We've got higher US interest rates. 145 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 11: A lot of markets are obviously closed for the Easter holidays, 146 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 11: so most of the action we see is either in 147 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 11: the Asian or in the North American markets. A couple 148 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 11: of notable levels. Japanese yen went down to one hundred 149 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 11: and forty against the US dollars. That was up up 150 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 11: one percent against the US dollar. It's back to its 151 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 11: July twenty twenty three levels. The Chinese Nimby has depreciated 152 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 11: quite a bit on a trade weighted basis. It's down 153 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 11: around three percent now since the start of April, and 154 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 11: more like five percent and Trumps since Trump's inaugurations, So 155 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 11: that helps them out at least a bit at the margin. 156 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 11: With these tariffs and all of this makes it quite 157 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 11: a bit tougher on you with its consumers as these 158 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 11: tariffs it There's another story out overnight saying that the 159 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 11: chief executives of Target Home Depot walmart All in the 160 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 11: President's office today to talk about whether they can get 161 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 11: some sort of dispensation against the tariffs. 162 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. 163 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 11: The other thing I'd say is that all the volatility 164 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 11: has been great for gold. We've got a new all 165 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 11: time high for gold to over four thousand dollars an ounce. 166 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 11: And if you're a fake acid officionado, then bitcoins obviously 167 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 11: had a pretty good run as well. It's somewhere with 168 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 11: four percent. 169 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 2: Now the dollar. Of course, I mean, good for travelers, 170 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 2: bad for exporters. So where do we sit in the house, this, 171 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 2: you know, affecting us. 172 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 12: Well, this is. 173 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 11: Very messy actually for the New Zealand dollar. You know, 174 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 11: anyone who's been reading our research for a while has 175 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 11: been pointing people to the risk that the key we 176 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 11: should be going lower if you've got one of these 177 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 11: sort of global trade shops that's going on. At least 178 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 11: that's what the textbook would tell you. But unfortunately, foreign 179 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 11: exchange the relative thing. And right now, whilst the New 180 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 11: Zealand dollar may not necessarily be in a great place, 181 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,079 Speaker 11: it's in a much better place than many and particularly 182 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 11: the countries that have higher tariffs, and the US dollar 183 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 11: is obviously the real weakling there at the moment, so 184 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 11: we are going up. It's a real challenge to our 185 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 11: forecasts right now. I mean I basically expected the kew 186 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 11: we would be closer to fifty seven cents as opposed 187 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 11: to this year, instead of the sixty cent level that 188 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 11: we've breached overnight. It's just sticking around sixty cent right now. 189 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 11: The reality is the Kiwi dollar is not the focal 190 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:58,839 Speaker 11: point for foreign exchange traders right now. Their focus really 191 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 11: is on the major currencies right now, as opposed to 192 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 11: our humble QIPAESO. But you know, there's some case that 193 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 11: the New Zealand dollar may not necessarily do very badly. 194 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,079 Speaker 11: In the final analysis. Our tariff levels are at the 195 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 11: low end of the scale. It's also interesting to think 196 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 11: that our commodity price is given that we tend to 197 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 11: export food as opposed to manufacture goods, we may actually 198 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 11: do all right in general over the next year. So 199 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 11: given that people are still going to eat eat, and 200 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 11: we could benefit from some of the changing benefit patterns 201 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 11: of global trade. I doubt that means that we're a 202 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 11: winner out of this, but we certainly may not lose 203 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 11: as much as most and that possibly what could be 204 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 11: one of the reason the key is a bit stronger 205 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,839 Speaker 11: at the margin. This is making a bit tougher for 206 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 11: our v exporters and tour operators, and usually in these 207 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 11: circumstances they get a bit of relief out of the 208 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 11: exchange Rate's going the wrong way right now, but it 209 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 11: does help out the Reserve Bank. The interim governor may 210 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 11: have been looking to come up with stories to explain 211 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 11: why it's the inflation's back to three percent so quickly 212 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 11: after slashing the OCR two hundred basis points in the 213 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 11: last six months. But you know, obviously good news for 214 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 11: those of you out there need to refix your mortgage, 215 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 11: because we've got these sub five percent morgitrates and probably 216 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 11: here to stay for a while. 217 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly right. What are the numbers? 218 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 11: Mate, Dow Jones down three point one seven percent, thirty 219 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,839 Speaker 11: seven nine hundred, the S and P five hundred down 220 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:39,959 Speaker 11: three and a quarter percent, five one one one, Nasdak 221 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 11: down three and a half percent.

It's an international report comes from 273 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 2: the United Nations. Whether we believe anything that comes out 274 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 2: of the United Nations, I'm not one hundred percent sure. 275 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 2: But the claim is that organized crime is looking to 276 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 2: places like New Zealand into our sport, even at grassroots level. 277 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 2: What's that mean?

Here's a 310 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 2: red flag if you're a bit worried and it doesn't 311 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 2: actually affect us, or is it something more than that? 312 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 8: Do you think? 313 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 12: Well, I mean I think anything. 314 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,760 Speaker 13: I think it's took at UNODC reports and into pollwork 315 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 13: that is happening overseas, and yeah, the threats and I 316 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 13: guess maturity of competoustion manipulation is more over there. But 317 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 13: what we do know is that that gives us a 318 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 13: little bit of a crystal ball and that we are 319 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 13: vulnerable because of a few unique factors that on the 320 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 13: New Zealand has at the moment, and you know these 321 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 13: organized crime groups and unregulated gambling mat markets with trillions 322 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 13: of dollars and sits in for Southeast Asia. So because 323 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 13: of that, New Gillan play sport at a time and 324 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 13: the rest of the world to sleep, and those people 325 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 13: who do want to bet on something, we want to 326 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,439 Speaker 13: be able to obviously do that live and all of 327 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 13: New Zealand in the East Coast of Australia playing sport 328 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 13: at that time, and so anything that's online or streamed 329 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 13: or live in any way creates a market. 330 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 2: If we would dodge you right now, do you reckon? 331 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 2: You could spot it. 332 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 13: There's lots of way you can, I mean to be honest. 333 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:28,880 Speaker 13: If you go to some sporting events, you can come 334 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,879 Speaker 13: across people in the crowd who they might have, you know, 335 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 13: multiple phones and be talking kind of interesting parts of 336 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 13: the players that's unfolding, So you can spot sort of 337 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 13: some enablers like that, And I think at the other end, 338 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 13: you know, something really really blatant in the sport. You 339 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:45,959 Speaker 13: could spot that as well, but a lot of it 340 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 13: goes unnoticed because it's very small things. And any sport 341 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,360 Speaker 13: that has kind of games within a game or smaller 342 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 13: components to it as vulnerable. 343 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 2: Does your organization reach into grassroots level sport? I mean, 344 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 2: if I'm standing on the sideline on Saturday, I mean, 345 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 2: would I have any idea that you were monitoring, looking at, 346 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,720 Speaker 2: understanding anything about, you know, anything other than elite sport. 347 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:13,439 Speaker 13: Yeah, I think so. We certainly have a lot of 348 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:17,119 Speaker 13: resources and a winner's racing stuff online and lots of 349 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 13: I gues, policies and educational stuff so people can dive 350 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 13: into that. But in terms of awareness at grassroots level, 351 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 13: I think that's pretty low. And that's kind of nice 352 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:31,120 Speaker 13: because New Zealand's, you know, not a typically corrupt country. 353 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 13: But when we think about sort of for example, in 354 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 13: football in the National League last year there was over 355 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 13: two hundred million bet on the National League in New Zealand, 356 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 13: and that's sort of five hundred thousand to one point 357 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 13: formerion a game, about ninety six books book makers, all 358 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 13: sort of off site of sure, so yes, that's not grassroots. 359 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 13: But that's where our kids come through, you know, grassroots 360 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 13: and then little small things like offering you a pair 361 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 13: of boats or a scholarsh or some sort of other 362 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,919 Speaker 13: opportunity that can look really really inviting to kids and 363 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 13: young adults. So those are the kinds of it as 364 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 13: a continuum in New Zealander anywhere, and those are the 365 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:13,119 Speaker 13: sorts of risks that we do try and educate people. 366 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:14,920 Speaker 2: On good stuff. Nice to talk to you, Rebecca, go well, 367 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,679 Speaker 2: Rebecca Roles, who's the Sport Integrity Commissioned CEO.

Over sixty thousand veterans are created since nineteen ninety. 376 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 2: The demand for the service has never been higher. As 377 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 2: you would imagine, military personnel can be affected, of course, 378 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 2: mentally and physically by both the environments that they're required 379 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:51,199 Speaker 2: to serve in and the situations they're exposed to. And 380 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:55,159 Speaker 2: while most will have no issues, some will struggle to reintegrate, 381 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 2: maybe suffer from past injuries, experience ongoing mental health issues 382 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 2: as a result of their service. Supporters available through RSA, 383 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:04,360 Speaker 2: but because they're not funded, they rely on us basically 384 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 2: to help. So there are more ways than ever to give. 385 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 2: You can text Poppy.

An Australia poll out this 392 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 2: morning got an American pole for you on trumpev I 393 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 2: get time in a couple of moments and you won 394 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 2: this morning. But the latest news poll out of Australia 395 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,639 Speaker 2: took it to a mate actually yesterday who left Australia 396 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 2: a couple of weeks ago to do some work in America. 397 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 2: And since he came back, he said, when I left, 398 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,400 Speaker 2: there was a chance that Dutton was going to win, 399 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 2: and when I came back, there's no chance Dutton's going 400 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 2: to win. The news Pole reflects that this morning Labor 401 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:53,440 Speaker 2: increasing their primary vote to thirty four percent. If replicated 402 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 2: by the way, that would actually be a better result 403 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 2: than they got in twenty twenty two on the two 404 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,239 Speaker 2: party preferred basis fifty two forty eight first votes. As 405 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 2: I say, in tomorrow, and the preference thing is interesting. 406 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 2: Back in two thousand and four, more than half the 407 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 2: seats were determined by first preference. These days it's less 408 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 2: than ten percent, So preferences are everything. Six forty five. 409 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 16: International Correspondence with ends in Eye Insurance, Peace of Mind 410 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 16: for New Zealand Business and France. 411 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,120 Speaker 2: Captain feel very good morning to you. Good morning mate. 412 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 2: Seems amazing, doesn't it. I mean, I'm sure you were 413 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 2: watching as I was yesterday, and he's in the popemobile, 414 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:30,159 Speaker 2: he's blessing babies. 415 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 5: J D. 416 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 2: Barnce was in his plate and suddenly he's. 417 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:37,640 Speaker 17: Gone incredible, wasn't it. Yes, Europe woke up Easter Monday 418 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,199 Speaker 17: to discover that Pope Francis, who of course has you know, 419 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 17: has got to make sort of following here in Europe. 420 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 17: But I think the one thing that has come across today, 421 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 17: and when we look at the reaction from people like 422 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 17: a sort of vonderlion headed the European Commission talking about 423 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 17: his humility, his compassion, German Chancellor and waiting Matt's talking 424 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 17: about the pope's commitment to justice and reconciliation, and I 425 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 17: think you just sort of keep seeing that, Mike, this 426 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,679 Speaker 17: idea that this was a pope who was pope at 427 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:13,640 Speaker 17: a time when moral values were really being questioned, someone 428 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 17: who cared about the vulnerable. And when you look at 429 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 17: the you know, the aspects that he brought to the 430 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 17: four when he was talking not just the Europeans, but 431 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,120 Speaker 17: also his whole legacy. 432 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 2: Will we very much the environment? 433 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 17: Remember back in what twenty fourteen he came to Strasburg 434 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 17: in France and made that big announcement about the need 435 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 17: for something to be done about the environment, the need 436 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:41,439 Speaker 17: for people to start taking climate change more carefully, to 437 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 17: actually recognize that it has been getting worse. So I 438 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 17: think that's what we've really been seeing throughout the day. 439 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 17: I mean here in Paris, of coursed Notre Dame, through 440 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 17: its doors open, people have been there all day that 441 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 17: had special masses it will stay open till midnight for 442 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,359 Speaker 17: the faithful to go and just have say a prayer 443 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,159 Speaker 17: to be part of in the morning. For this Pope 444 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,479 Speaker 17: and the mirror of Parents has ordered that the Eiffel 445 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,880 Speaker 17: Tower lights be turned off all tonight to commemorate his death. 446 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 2: One of the interesting things you mentioned Strasbourg. Of course, 447 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,439 Speaker 2: what he didn't do is he never went to Paris 448 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 2: and Notre Dame. He never went there for the reopening either, 449 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,879 Speaker 2: which I mean, is that widely know and if it is, 450 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:22,680 Speaker 2: what do we make of it? 451 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,880 Speaker 17: Indeed, he did not come for the reopening in December 452 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 17: of Notre Dame. And what just a week later he 453 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 17: went to Corsica, which was that he went there for 454 00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 17: a gathering of Catholic people involved with the migrant crisis. 455 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,160 Speaker 17: I might, I'll be honest with you, if they could 456 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,159 Speaker 17: have done anything to get him to go to the 457 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 17: reopening of Notre Dame last December, they would have done it. 458 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 2: We heard all. 459 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:52,119 Speaker 17: Sorts of things that President Macron asked him personally. The 460 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 17: Archbishop of Paris asked him. They said they would build 461 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 17: a ramp for his wheelchair. They said they would whitened doors. 462 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 17: But he said and he made it very to an 463 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,120 Speaker 17: Italian journalist, he said, I will never go to Paris. 464 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 17: I'm not going to Paris. I'm not going to the 465 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 17: opening of Notre Dame. Several things on that one is 466 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 17: it was widely known that he just really had no 467 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 17: interest in rich Western countries. He preferred the periphery, He 468 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 17: preferred the poor, He preferred the to deal with people 469 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 17: who were on the margins of society. 470 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 5: Don't forget. 471 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 17: Also, there was a very big here the clerical sexual abuse. 472 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,920 Speaker 17: Not so very long ago, they came out this Commission 473 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 17: on Sexual Abuse in the Catholic Church said there was 474 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 17: systematic abuse of children by clergymen in France two hundred 475 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:43,439 Speaker 17: and sixteen thousand cases since nineteen fifty. So that, of 476 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,400 Speaker 17: course was another big thing that the Pope was very 477 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 17: ashamed of, said he actually used the word shame. Also, secularism, 478 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 17: Europe is far more secular than it has been in 479 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 17: the past. The Church doesn't have that role in society 480 00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 17: that well, pipe France has wanted it to. 481 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 2: Very good ins, Catherine, appreciate your time as always, Catherine Field, 482 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:04,920 Speaker 2: who is in France for us this morning. By the way, 483 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,880 Speaker 2: there is no clear candidate to replace them. But I'll 484 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 2: work you through a couple of possible names. After a 485 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,160 Speaker 2: seven o'clock will go to Rome. Just out of Europe 486 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 2: in general, a couple of things that happened over the 487 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:17,919 Speaker 2: weekend that are moderately positive. I think Ukraine signed this well, 488 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 2: what they call the basis of a minerals deal. This 489 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 2: is this member go back to Zelenski in the White House. 490 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 2: It all turned pair shape anyway, it was that deal. 491 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 2: They've finally got round to signing memorandum of intent basis 492 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 2: for a larger agreement. So we'll be interested to see 493 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 2: where that goes. I know Prime Minister Luxeon, by the ways, 494 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 2: with us after seven thirty said overnight that we're extending 495 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 2: our cooperation to train the troops in Britain for Ukraine 496 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 2: until December of next year. So in other words, we see, 497 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 2: I assume the war carrying on this year and next, 498 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 2: which then leads you to go what happened to the 499 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 2: peace deal? Meantime, speaking of peace, the United States in 500 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 2: Iran witcoff this is they're forever traveling around the world. 501 00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 2: I note that to Jeddi Barnces in India this morning, 502 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 2: he's traveling and well, but anyway, Whitcoff, they talked Iran 503 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 2: and the States. They're going to talk again this week. 504 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 2: They're moving from Rome to Oman, but things in that 505 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:12,440 Speaker 2: particular area look positive as well. Ten Away from seven. 506 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 1: The Mike Casting Breakfast with Bailey's Real Estate News togs they'v. 507 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 2: Just on Trump quickly. I'm sure you're up to speed. 508 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 2: The Supreme Court over the easter period said you can't 509 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 2: keep deporting people the way you have been. So he's 510 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:26,159 Speaker 2: been using or arguing the seventeen ninety eight Alien Enemies 511 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 2: Act and of the two hundred and sixty one Venezuelans 512 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 2: Deporter to l Selvador. So far one p. Thirty seven 513 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 2: removed under that Act, and the Supreme Court don't like it. 514 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 2: Where that goes, I don't know. His approval ratings are 515 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 2: as the Americans would term it underwater, even with blue 516 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 2: collar workers, who remain the most positive group in America 517 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 2: towards his view of the economy. As disapproval numbers are 518 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 2: up fourteen percent in the last couple of weeks. Forty 519 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 2: nine percent of Americans now think the year ahead is 520 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 2: going to be worse than it was. He's not overly 521 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 2: bothered overtly by that at the moment, because of course 522 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 2: he is deeply immersed in the wonders of Easter where. 523 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 7: Honoring Jesus Christ. And we're going to honor Jesus Christ 524 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 7: very powerfully throughout our lives, all throughout our lives, not 525 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 7: just now, all throughout our lives. We're bringing religion back 526 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,919 Speaker 7: in America. We're bringing a lot of things back, but 527 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 7: religion is coming back to America. That's why you see 528 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,879 Speaker 7: the kind of numbers that you see the spirit and 529 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:20,160 Speaker 7: the kind of numbers that you. 530 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 2: See want numbers. I don't know what numbers he's referring 531 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 2: to anyway. Who was standing on the balcony looking down 532 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 2: and he saw the gardens and you had to think 533 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 2: the gardens. 534 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,640 Speaker 7: It was a beautiful day yesterday, and it's a beautiful 535 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 7: day today. We don't have to worry about sunburn. But 536 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 7: we looks like it's not going to be raining. It's 537 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 7: going to be really something special. I also want to 538 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 7: thank the National Park Service the job they do and 539 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 7: making everything so beautiful and spiffy. And I'm very difficult 540 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,479 Speaker 7: when it comes to that. I will tell you, very 541 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 7: very difficult. 542 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 1: All the inns and the outs it's the bizz with 543 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 1: business fiber take your business productivity to the mixed level. 544 00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:01,680 Speaker 2: Question two questions. In fact, the sitting US president, who's 545 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 2: ever used the word spiffy? And second question, if he isn't, 546 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 2: who has? I can't name one off the top of 547 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 2: my head. Got some phone intel for you. Two Degrees 548 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 2: Business have released some data this morning run notifications of 549 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 2: work phone activity. So the impact on mental health didn't 550 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 2: look good. Half of us over the age of eighteen 551 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:21,879 Speaker 2: now feel overrun by notifications. Now for jin z, who 552 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 2: are the first generation to grow up entirely online, the 553 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 2: problem is even worse. Thirty eight percent regularly feel overwhelmed 554 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:31,920 Speaker 2: or panicked or anxious by their endless stream of notifications. 555 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:35,679 Speaker 2: I'm no tech genius, but I'm just wondering if you 556 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:37,640 Speaker 2: might want to turn a few of those notifications off. 557 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 2: And so I'm turning a few of the notifications if 558 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 2: you won't get too many notifications, and therefore you won't 559 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 2: be as overwhelmed, panicedlor anxious. Now two Degrees Chief executive 560 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 2: Mark Callender is calling on us to quote unquote take 561 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 2: control of our notifications. I just did that. I beat 562 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 2: them to it. I just said take control of your notifications. 563 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 2: Turn your notifications off anyway, He's already thought of that. 564 00:28:55,640 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 2: Take control of your notifications before they take control of you. 565 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 2: This is common sense. Media. In the United States, they 566 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 2: show that people receive an average of two hundred and 567 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 2: thirty seven notifications a day. This particular survey done here 568 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 2: was done on behalf of two degrees by Pure Profile. 569 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 2: They interviewed five hundred and six of us. Apparently fifty 570 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 2: percent of US half too many notifications, thirty seven percent 571 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 2: fuel overwhelmed, panic ranches, thirty percent struggle to concentrate during 572 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 2: notifications or due to two notifications. Forty six percent of 573 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 2: the gen ztters so they receive far too many, and 574 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 2: forty percent find it difficult to concentrate. So it's a 575 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 2: world of woe and misery. Biggest culprit social media sixty 576 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 2: five will as you first, then get rid of the 577 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 2: social media work email. Do you know something happened to 578 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 2: my phone? And this is the beautiful thing about being 579 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 2: technically inept. I used to get on my phone a 580 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 2: ding whenever an email came in. It would be a 581 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 2: whoop er a ding. And I can change that on 582 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 2: my phone. I can go to a place on the 583 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:56,479 Speaker 2: phone and change the noise. But suddenly my email ding's whoops. 584 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 2: Whatever they were disappeared one day and they've never come back. 585 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 2: I don't know why or where they we and I 586 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 2: don't even know how to bring them back if I 587 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 2: wanted to, which I don't. So I get emails and 588 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 2: I've got no idea that they've arrived. And because I've 589 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 2: got no idea, I never look at them. Because I 590 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 2: never look at them, I never replied to them. In 591 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 2: my life. Is so much simpler news for you. 592 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: Next, the only report you need to start your day 593 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: the my casting Breakfast with Bailey's Real Estate, your local 594 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: experts across residential, commercial and rural news. 595 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 4: Todstad be only. 596 00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 2: Seven past seven. As you've heard the Pope Francis diet 597 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 2: last night our time. He was eighty eight. Is recent 598 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 2: health battles well documented, but he was out and about 599 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 2: over the Easter weekend. He met with, among others, the 600 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 2: US Vice President, of course, in the last couple of days. 601 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 2: But it can Correspondent Edward Penton is whether said very 602 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 2: good morning to you, good morning. Can we describe this 603 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 2: as a surprise, given we have seen him out and active. 604 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 15: Well, it was a surprise because obviously we just saw 605 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 15: him yesterday. As you say, he met jd Vance, the 606 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 15: Vice President and the US and delivered what he isn't 607 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 15: delivered the will bee at Albi, but he did greet 608 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 15: the pilgrim, So yes, we thought he was he was 609 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 15: sort of okay. But in the end, at the same time, 610 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 15: it wasn't a surprise because we know that he's been 611 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 15: failing quite considerably since well since his operation back in 612 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 15: twenty twenty one, but certainly in the past a couple 613 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 15: of months, since he was hospitalized for several weeks. 614 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 2: How was the new shared and received in your part 615 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 2: of the world in rhyme, Well, a. 616 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 15: Lot of sadness. 617 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 8: Of course. 618 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 15: The church now undergoes a few days of mourning, official mourning, 619 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 15: and the death of a pope is always a sad 620 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 15: moment for the faithful. But there will soon be the funeral. 621 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 15: The funeral is expected to be probably on Saturday, and 622 00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,239 Speaker 15: then the General Congregations, which is when the cardinals get 623 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 15: together to discuss the priorities for the church, that begins 624 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 15: probably on Monday, and then we'll have probably the beginning 625 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:57,240 Speaker 15: of the conclave the following week. 626 00:31:57,960 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 2: His reputation and legacy. 627 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:04,200 Speaker 15: What are they saying, Well, I think it's very much 628 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 15: a mixed one. I think the general consensus is that 629 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 15: he tried very hard to open the church's doors to 630 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 15: the people who probably wouldn't otherwise look at the church, 631 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:18,000 Speaker 15: and try to make the church attractive to those who 632 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 15: simply would never give the church a second glance. I 633 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 15: think that was his great mission, as it were, He 634 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:28,520 Speaker 15: was a great He really wanted to evangelize and bring 635 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 15: the Church's message. 636 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 8: To those people. 637 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 15: On the other hand, he was seen very much also 638 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 15: within the church as a divisive pope. I think he 639 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 15: caused a lot of concerns because he didn't actually bring 640 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 15: along many of the faithful along with him as part 641 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 15: of this mission, and in fact he alienated many of 642 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 15: those who on the traditional orthodox side of the church 643 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 15: and didn't really manage to bring them along with him. 644 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 15: So there was a great sort of division there between 645 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 15: between those who were pushing for the reforms that he 646 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 15: was he was wanting to do, and those who were 647 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:08,280 Speaker 15: trying to keep him more grounded in doctrine and the 648 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 15: traditions of the faith. 649 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 2: From what I can gather, there is no standout candidate 650 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 2: going forward. Is that a fear assessment or not? 651 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 4: Sorry? 652 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 5: No, what again? 653 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 2: No standout candidate? In other words, when they go to vote, 654 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 2: there's no obvious. 655 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:23,720 Speaker 5: No, that's true. 656 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 15: And I think this is going to be one of 657 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 15: the most interesting conclaves in recent history because there is 658 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 15: no single candidate that the Pope has chosen many. He 659 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 15: chose many candidates from the developing world, from the global 660 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 15: South who aren't known at all very well. 661 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 11: And. 662 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 15: Usually from from sees that aren't usually episcopates, so cardinal 663 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 15: lacial sees rather so he's he's chosen a wide variety 664 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 15: of cardinals who I think will be which make it 665 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,480 Speaker 15: very difficult to predict who could be elected the next pope. 666 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 15: On the other hand, there are certain candid that's who 667 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 15: are leading the way. I've been part of a project 668 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 15: called the College of cardinalsreport dot com, which you can 669 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,920 Speaker 15: see where you can see all the cardinals and all 670 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 15: their profiles, and you can see which ones are leading 671 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 15: and which ones are considered to be probably more bigger 672 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:19,240 Speaker 15: contenders than the others. 673 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:20,959 Speaker 2: All right, we'll go there, and I appreciate your insight 674 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 2: very much. Edward Penton, who's Vetican correspondent National Catholic now 675 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,759 Speaker 2: registered at eleven past seven, Pascal. I'll come back to 676 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:28,880 Speaker 2: a couple of names. One is Peter Verdo, who is 677 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 2: the Hungarian Cardinal Archbishop of Buddapest. A guy called Louis Targal. 678 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 2: He would be the Asian Francis, or what they're referring 679 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 2: to as the Asian Francis. But we'll come back to 680 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:40,319 Speaker 2: that shortly. Domestically, once again, we're angsting apparently this morning 681 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:43,560 Speaker 2: about the government's target of five hundred new cops by November. 682 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 2: We've got briefing papers out of February that show a 683 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,720 Speaker 2: lower pass rate for trainees. We've got the physical aspect 684 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,760 Speaker 2: of the test an issue. Apparently the Associate Police Minister 685 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,919 Speaker 2: Casey Castello is with us on that's very good morning 686 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 2: to you. 687 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:55,879 Speaker 14: Good morning, Mike. 688 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 2: Given this was February, I just can't work out, given 689 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 2: the target is November and it's still only April, are 690 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 2: we I mean, are we panicking here? Is there a 691 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 2: red flag here? Or should we just wait until April 692 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 2: to see where we get to? 693 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,239 Speaker 14: Yeah, and I think that's the big issue here. We 694 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 14: have a twenty week recruitment course, the last wing that 695 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,560 Speaker 14: we'd go in will be July and still graduated the 696 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 14: twenty seventh of November, so we still have a few 697 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,840 Speaker 14: months to get through. And we still have the Auckland 698 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:26,400 Speaker 14: Training Base to open, which we hope to put an 699 00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 14: additional wing through there in June, so we have all 700 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:34,919 Speaker 14: of the forecasting is not particularly helpful month by month 701 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:38,360 Speaker 14: analysis because things such ate and change, And just to 702 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 14: call on that readiness quote that's in the article, I 703 00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:45,279 Speaker 14: think that's a bit misconstrued. What we're talking about is 704 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,880 Speaker 14: because we've sped out the amount of time it gets 705 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 14: from a recruit applying to getting to college, that's a 706 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 14: much shorter time. So what we're talking about is readiness 707 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:57,360 Speaker 14: to get to the college, and that's usually the fitness standard. 708 00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:02,319 Speaker 14: I know when I went down God nearly forty years ago, 709 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 14: you had a short space of time to get from 710 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 14: oh you're going, and to be ready to get into 711 00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 14: the college, you've got to put pass the fitness test. 712 00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:14,239 Speaker 14: And that's what we're talking about, that readiness. They're not 713 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:16,760 Speaker 14: not the pass rate out of college that's still very high. 714 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,320 Speaker 2: Got chat. Last time I heard there was generally speaking 715 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 2: good interest in applying. Is that still applicable? Or not. 716 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:26,279 Speaker 14: Yeah, still very good interest and the police have done 717 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 14: an extraordinary job in terms of the promotion, the recruitment. 718 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,279 Speaker 14: The standard we're maintaining is incredible. I'm actually heading out 719 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,160 Speaker 14: to the college this morning for another wing coming into college. 720 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:40,799 Speaker 14: The standard of recruits is really impressive and the engagement 721 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 14: and the process has been really good. So we're still 722 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 14: very confident. Attrition rate fluctuates up and down all the time, 723 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 14: and we know we've got overseas. You know, we've got 724 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:55,000 Speaker 14: previous cops who are trying to rejoin. So there's really 725 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:56,080 Speaker 14: good interest in the place. 726 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 2: Is the media getting to I mean, I suppose it 727 00:36:58,239 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 2: to your fault, you did say five hundred, but the 728 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,719 Speaker 2: media getting overly fixated on this. Whether it's four eight, seven, 729 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 2: five oh five. If you've got the message out there, 730 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 2: people feel safe for people are getting arrested, they're being 731 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 2: dealt to the police forces back doesn't really matter. 732 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:15,320 Speaker 14: Yeah, and that's the key point. A. We're getting great 733 00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 14: interest in joining the police. 734 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 12: There's more. 735 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 14: You know, the police themselves are happier with the job 736 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:23,839 Speaker 14: they're doing. They're feeling like they're back doing what they 737 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 14: were joined the police to do. There's really good Morales 738 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:32,040 Speaker 14: just up at Kaikoe Kitty Kitty last week saying there's 739 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 14: really good stuff happening on the ground and police are 740 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 14: feeling really good about the job they do, and that's reflective. 741 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:39,879 Speaker 14: And that's what this target is about, is making sure 742 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 14: that we get really good interest in joining the police 743 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:45,440 Speaker 14: from really good people because it is an amazing career. 744 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 2: Good stuff. Casey appreciate it very much. Casey Costello, Associate 745 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 2: Police Minister, fourteen past seven. Please ask luck So why 746 00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 2: he doesn't change the law resupermarkets and restaurants not allowed 747 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 2: to being open on Easter Sunday. We're still having that debate. 748 00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:58,960 Speaker 2: I mean, I was sort of pleased over the weekend 749 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 2: there wasn't a There was a little bit of coverage, 750 00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 2: but it's one of those conscience spoke type things, and 751 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:05,920 Speaker 2: there's so much angst around it, and every time somebody 752 00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:08,319 Speaker 2: goes there was a unionist. I watched was It last night? 753 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 2: The night before a unionist said what we really want 754 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 2: to be doing is closing everything down. He said, we 755 00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:16,120 Speaker 2: need to be closing everything down so we can all 756 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:20,040 Speaker 2: have a rest. And I thought, so it's probably better 757 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 2: not to have the debate. It's fifteen past. 758 00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:27,880 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 759 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:28,880 Speaker 1: by News Talks. 760 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 2: At b Crystal bal Laksen with us Live out of 761 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 2: the UK after seven thirties, met the King, We'll be 762 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 2: meeting Sakiah Starmas and we'll get the update on all 763 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:38,799 Speaker 2: of that. Seventeen past seven Now very and cruise passengers 764 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:41,239 Speaker 2: might be facing a new levy. So the government's weighing 765 00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 2: up how to fund a permanent rescue take for the 766 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 2: Cook Straight. Temporary options arrived will be in service until 767 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 2: due next year. Apparently long term solution needed obviously. The 768 00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 2: Maritime Union spokesperson Victor Billow's with us victim Morning, Good morning. 769 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:55,839 Speaker 2: Is there anything unique or different about the Cook Straight 770 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 2: as regards having us service per se. 771 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 12: Well, obviously the cookstrait's a very rough piece of water 772 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:06,919 Speaker 12: with a lot of you know, inter island ferries going 773 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 12: between it, and there's been a number of issues there 774 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 12: over the last few years, so it is a special 775 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 12: piece of water. But nonetheless, this new plan I think 776 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 12: is for these rescue tags to be used throughout New Zealand. 777 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,600 Speaker 2: What have we done previously and who's paid for them? 778 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 12: Well, previously it's kind of been a little bit of 779 00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:31,280 Speaker 12: a mess, to be honest, because we've had in the past, 780 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:34,319 Speaker 12: for example, we've had vessels get into trouble and then 781 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:38,240 Speaker 12: sometimes you know, the money is able to be obtained 782 00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 12: from the company that operate to them. But the problem 783 00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:42,680 Speaker 12: is a lot of the vessels on the New Zealand 784 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:45,879 Speaker 12: Coast overseas vessels, and it becomes a bit more complicated 785 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:48,360 Speaker 12: once you get into the funding model for these things. 786 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 2: Okay, this thing that's filling until June of next year, 787 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,680 Speaker 2: could that carry on or is this a stopgap measure 788 00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:54,880 Speaker 2: that needs to be fixed properly. 789 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,080 Speaker 12: Well, it definitely needs to be fixed properly with a 790 00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 12: long term plan. But we're heavy to see at the 791 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:05,200 Speaker 12: MMA vision, which is the vessel that's been temporary put 792 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 12: onto the into Wellington to be a rescue vessel. We're 793 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 12: pleased to see that, but I mean, that does need 794 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:15,680 Speaker 12: to be a long term plan, and we're not entirely 795 00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:18,279 Speaker 12: sure that the user pays model is either the right 796 00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:21,239 Speaker 12: one or an easy one to enforce. 797 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 2: Isn't it you just tag it on? I mean, I 798 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,120 Speaker 2: would imagine with the hundreds of thousands of people crossing 799 00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:27,439 Speaker 2: the straight on any given year to be next to nothing. 800 00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 2: You barely notice it, would you. 801 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 12: I think they're pretty expensive to maintain a vessel, but 802 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:36,239 Speaker 12: you need to have it. And the reality is is 803 00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:39,360 Speaker 12: that the inter Island line in blue Bridge, the private operator, 804 00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:42,919 Speaker 12: you know, it would be a major hit for them, 805 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:46,320 Speaker 12: and we have to come and start saying, well, maybe 806 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 12: this is something that's actually a national, national infrastructure. I mean, 807 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:52,920 Speaker 12: we don't treat roads in a similar way. We have 808 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 12: a much more a different way of getting with them. 809 00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:58,319 Speaker 12: So we're just wondering how that's going to work out. 810 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:00,359 Speaker 12: And of course there's also the quest and a lot 811 00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 12: of these vessels at this rescue take my service may 812 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:07,520 Speaker 12: may be overseas vessels, and that becomes a head you 813 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 12: get the money off theme, it becomes another question. 814 00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 2: All right, good point, Well, Billa, who's the Maritime Union spokesperson, 815 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:17,239 Speaker 2: as I say, Christopher Luxen after seven to thirty, but 816 00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:19,280 Speaker 2: we will be talking to him, among other things about 817 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 2: the RB and their big budget cup. More on that 818 00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:24,760 Speaker 2: in the moment seven twenty. 819 00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:28,839 Speaker 1: The Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio cow 820 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:30,560 Speaker 1: It by News talksp. 821 00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:33,920 Speaker 2: Now, if you're a business leader, you're well aware of 822 00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 2: the potential for AI, of course, and how that could 823 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:38,160 Speaker 2: transform your business. If your business has got lots of 824 00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:41,920 Speaker 2: those workflows that involve processing legal documents, reports, policy manuals, 825 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,920 Speaker 2: complex documents, all that stuff, one net can help you 826 00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:47,440 Speaker 2: become even more successful.

Here's where you go one net, 837 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 2: dot co, dot inz simple, one net, dot co, dot inz, 838 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 2: request a complimentary consultation to assess how your business can 839 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 2: automate you document workflows with AI. So it's one Net, 840 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:32,080 Speaker 2: it's Grizzly AI. Innovation leaders since two thousand, Paski eleven 841 00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:34,320 Speaker 2: twenty four, writes some questions for you around the Reserve 842 00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:37,360 Speaker 2: Bank and their funding. Firstly, the Finance Minister to be 843 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 2: congratulated on her handling of the fiscal matters and reducing 844 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 2: the expenditure by twenty five percent. I mean this is 845 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:45,480 Speaker 2: a Doge like achievement. In fact, have you been following Doge? 846 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 2: What they said they would do versus what they have 847 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:49,440 Speaker 2: done is like a lot of the Trump output so 848 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 2: far mainly hot air, So in fact Willis leaves them 849 00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:54,960 Speaker 2: somewhat in it a dust. Then came the revelation from 850 00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:57,279 Speaker 2: cabinet papers that a lot of the extra money the 851 00:42:57,320 --> 00:43:00,760 Speaker 2: Reserve Bank got hadn't actually been spent. This is possibly 852 00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:04,239 Speaker 2: referred to as waste and was a good insight into 853 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,360 Speaker 2: how Adriene and Grant ran the place. But despite the 854 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:08,840 Speaker 2: fact it hadn't been spent, all of a sudden, just 855 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,840 Speaker 2: before Nicholer came along, it did get spent budget in 856 00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:14,799 Speaker 2: areas like people in tech and info and data are 857 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:18,280 Speaker 2: spending like drunks. So clearly Willis has seen their scam, 858 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 2: called their bluff and got her way. Good on her. 859 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:22,480 Speaker 2: But the bigger question is this, with all that money, 860 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:26,200 Speaker 2: tens of millions of dollars a year? Were they any good? 861 00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:29,239 Speaker 2: Did that money buy good results? Were good people doing 862 00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:29,680 Speaker 2: good work? 863 00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:29,919 Speaker 4: Well? 864 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:33,120 Speaker 2: History shows, as obviously the answers know. Our COVID response 865 00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 2: is now widely seen as an apt our three recessions, 866 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 2: the artworking of a complete and utter cock up when 867 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:41,520 Speaker 2: it came to handling a financial crisis. We have smaller 868 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:43,560 Speaker 2: issues still play, of course, like the reserves for the 869 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:46,680 Speaker 2: commercial banks and outworking of the Adrian or paranoia. And 870 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:49,840 Speaker 2: for all that money, we seem to employed a central 871 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 2: bank that did worse than most to this day Treasury 872 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 2: and this might be on Treasury, not the RB, but 873 00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 2: Treasury cannot work out the value of all that money 874 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:01,000 Speaker 2: flooding into the economy. What did it do? Was it 875 00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:03,319 Speaker 2: good value? If they can't work it out, did the 876 00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:06,600 Speaker 2: RB know going in or were they panicked? And were 877 00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:09,080 Speaker 2: they flying blind? Why did they give that free money 878 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:10,800 Speaker 2: to the banks with no restrictions on what happened to 879 00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:14,120 Speaker 2: it next? These remain the unanswered questions, of course, years 880 00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:17,880 Speaker 2: on the artworkings of which we economically are still paying for. 881 00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:20,719 Speaker 2: So the twenty five percent cut is one story. The 882 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:23,800 Speaker 2: other is what we got for our investment how would 883 00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:27,319 Speaker 2: you describe a return that bad and given it went 884 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:31,360 Speaker 2: to the inept is twenty five percent? Even enough basking 885 00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:34,120 Speaker 2: more on that with the Prime Minister shortly Peter Urdo. 886 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:37,319 Speaker 2: He's the Hungarian cardinals, they alluded to. The Archbishop of 887 00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:41,560 Speaker 2: Bukarest Budapest rather leading contender for the conservative wing of 888 00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:46,120 Speaker 2: the church, Louis Targal otherwise known as the Asian Francis 889 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:49,239 Speaker 2: from the Philippines, would be the first Asian Pope, and 890 00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:54,799 Speaker 2: Pietro Parolin, current Secretary of State for the Vatican, the 891 00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:57,240 Speaker 2: competent diplomat, they call them, but tarnished by a property 892 00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:58,880 Speaker 2: scandal that I won't bother you with it the my bit. 893 00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,560 Speaker 2: But nevertheless, if they're question marks around them, that is it. 894 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,120 Speaker 2: Close to half the cardinals these days come from the 895 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,600 Speaker 2: global South, in other words, the Southern Hemisphere are part 896 00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 2: of the world. Every cardinal, despite what they will tell you, 897 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:11,960 Speaker 2: wants to know how the next pope will be viewed 898 00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:15,359 Speaker 2: in their country, So that's important. They've got to reach 899 00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 2: the two thirds majority. It's all happening in the Sistine Chapel. 900 00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:20,640 Speaker 2: Stand by for the eight hundred and twelve articles to 901 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:23,719 Speaker 2: be written. The Pope has passed. What happens next and 902 00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:26,760 Speaker 2: then you can read that ad nauseum. It's so opate. 903 00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:30,920 Speaker 2: Basically the process forecasting winners the fool's business. But that's 904 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:34,280 Speaker 2: basically where we are at to the UK after the news, 905 00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:37,479 Speaker 2: the Prime Minister has met the King at Windsor, will 906 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:40,560 Speaker 2: be meeting Sakiah and we'll be going to Gallipoli as well. 907 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:43,000 Speaker 2: The details of that and more with Krystal ba lux 908 00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:44,560 Speaker 2: and after the news, which is next. 909 00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:50,320 Speaker 1: New Zealand's Voice of Reason is Mike the Mic asking 910 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:54,799 Speaker 1: Breakfast with a Vida, retirement, communities, life your Way, News, 911 00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:55,839 Speaker 1: togs Head be if all. 912 00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:57,360 Speaker 2: When it's away from my being a shortened week and 913 00:45:57,400 --> 00:45:58,920 Speaker 2: all of that sort of thing, we're still doing the 914 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:01,520 Speaker 2: Monday morning commentary by so after right Andrew Sabille and 915 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:03,880 Speaker 2: Jason plyin plenty to talk about.

We don't 928 00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:30,359 Speaker 18: share those details those conversations, but suffice to say he's 929 00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,360 Speaker 18: he's always very interested in what's going on in New Zealand, 930 00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 18: and he's pretty informed. 931 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:35,400 Speaker 8: About what's going on in the world. 932 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:37,439 Speaker 18: And we actually just spent a bit of time talking 933 00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:39,759 Speaker 18: about Pope Francis because obviously that news had come through 934 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:42,320 Speaker 18: literally an hour or two before we met. So no, 935 00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:43,920 Speaker 18: it was good to see him, and I've met him 936 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:46,799 Speaker 18: a couple of times and he's always very engaged, very 937 00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:49,240 Speaker 18: interested in lots of issues, but certainly in New Zealand 938 00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 18: as well. 939 00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:50,840 Speaker 2: Good When do you meet Youkiir. 940 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:55,399 Speaker 18: That's tomorrow morning or evening your time, and I'm looking 941 00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:57,279 Speaker 18: forward to that.

I think 948 00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:16,120 Speaker 18: we've trained about fifty four thousand Ukrainian soldiers so far, 949 00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:19,160 Speaker 18: and so we want to I want to see our 950 00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:21,319 Speaker 18: guys and our troops and talk to them and also 951 00:47:21,360 --> 00:47:23,279 Speaker 18: talk to the Ukrainian soldiers that are being trained, and 952 00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:26,279 Speaker 18: then we'll come back to Downing Street and do our 953 00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:28,799 Speaker 18: formal bilateral at number ten, which will be good and 954 00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:30,799 Speaker 18: it's a good relationship Mike, as you well know. So 955 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:32,279 Speaker 18: it's a good chance to say, well, how do we 956 00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 18: deepen and strengthen it further. 957 00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:36,040 Speaker 2: Let me come back to that in the moment regards Ukraine. 958 00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 2: So the announcement you made overnight, the extension to descender 959 00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:40,799 Speaker 2: twenty six, the thinking behind that is what the war 960 00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:43,440 Speaker 2: goes on until the twenty six What happened to the 961 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:44,360 Speaker 2: peace deal? 962 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:48,480 Speaker 18: Yeah, well, look, I'm in. We're obviously following closely any 963 00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:52,359 Speaker 18: potential ceasefire negotiations. We certainly welcome, as I've said before, 964 00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:55,000 Speaker 18: any efforts around a justin lasting piece for the Ukraine. 965 00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:59,160 Speaker 18: But yeah, and we'll keep discussing options about whether we 966 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:02,960 Speaker 18: would get involved in peace keeping support once a conflict concludes. 967 00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:06,400 Speaker 18: So there's ongoing conversations. We clearly, as a small country 968 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:08,400 Speaker 18: with limited resources a long way away, aren't going to 969 00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:10,960 Speaker 18: be the ones to end that war. Obviously, that's for 970 00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:14,120 Speaker 18: you know, Europe, Ukraine, US and Russia. 971 00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:17,320 Speaker 8: To work towards. But regardless, we. 972 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:19,360 Speaker 18: Stand very strongly with our set of values, which we 973 00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:23,360 Speaker 18: think Ukraine embodies and Zelensky and bodies very very strongly. 974 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:25,480 Speaker 8: It's important we play our part and stand up for 975 00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 8: those values. 976 00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:28,480 Speaker 2: Over the weekend, as you'll be well aware, the Ukrainians 977 00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:30,360 Speaker 2: signed the so called minerals Deal, or part of the 978 00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:32,359 Speaker 2: minerals Deal at least, you know, to extend it out 979 00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:36,160 Speaker 2: to something more permanent on the ground, there is there 980 00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 2: a peace deal to be had? Is there a war 981 00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:41,240 Speaker 2: to end here? Is there? I mean, what's your vibe? 982 00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:44,640 Speaker 18: Yeah, I mean, I think my observation is that, you know, 983 00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 18: it's up to you know, Russia really hasn't taken that 984 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:52,000 Speaker 18: the avenues that have been laid out by the Americans 985 00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:54,719 Speaker 18: and also the Ukrainians, and you know, the pressures on 986 00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 18: Russia really frankly if they want to step up and 987 00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:02,239 Speaker 18: actually progress cease fireotiations and conversations, the balls in their court, 988 00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:04,320 Speaker 18: and I think that's how certainly, you know, how the 989 00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:07,360 Speaker 18: European countries here feel about it. And again we have 990 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,440 Speaker 18: a chance to talk about that again tomorrow as well 991 00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:12,799 Speaker 18: with Sakia Starmer. But yeah, there is a you know, 992 00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:15,520 Speaker 18: this is an illegal, unprovoked invasion from Russia. They can 993 00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:18,880 Speaker 18: choose to end it at any point in time. Zleenski, 994 00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:20,520 Speaker 18: in my view, as a hero, he's standing up for 995 00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:22,759 Speaker 18: values that we believe in as a small country we 996 00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:25,839 Speaker 18: identify with Ukraine. I'm proud of the support that we've 997 00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:29,279 Speaker 18: been able to offer. But ultimately we know we want 998 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:31,799 Speaker 18: to you know, we're following closely and we welcome any 999 00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:33,919 Speaker 18: efforts to sort of get this war ended. 1000 00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:36,360 Speaker 2: How much discussion with Sakira is going to be about 1001 00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:38,919 Speaker 2: free trade, tariffs, the world as we. 1002 00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:42,359 Speaker 18: Know it, Yeah, I suspect. I mean it'd be more 1003 00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:46,080 Speaker 18: focused on our bilateral relationship, and obviously the defense and 1004 00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:48,719 Speaker 18: security is a big part of that, the Ukrainian peace 1005 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:52,280 Speaker 18: we just talked about, but we're also participating with the 1006 00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 18: UK Carrier Strike Force in twenty twenty five, which will 1007 00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:56,600 Speaker 18: come down through our part of the world. We have 1008 00:49:56,680 --> 00:49:59,120 Speaker 18: other things like the five Power defense arrangements which we 1009 00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:02,520 Speaker 18: have in Southeast Asia with the UK, and obviously with 1010 00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:05,160 Speaker 18: our step up in defense spending, we want to be 1011 00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:08,520 Speaker 18: into operable. But also there's areas of collaboration around innovation. 1012 00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 18: There's New Zealand companies that are actually providing the British 1013 00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:16,920 Speaker 18: military with UAVs and stuff like that, which is interesting. 1014 00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:19,600 Speaker 18: But I think the second but Mike, is that actually 1015 00:50:19,640 --> 00:50:21,480 Speaker 18: trade and investments growing tremendously. 1016 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:23,800 Speaker 8: So our exports to the UK. 1017 00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:25,759 Speaker 18: From New Zealand just in the last twelve months is 1018 00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:28,560 Speaker 18: up twenty one percent. It's now our seventh largest trading 1019 00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:31,799 Speaker 18: partner's about seven billion dollars. So there's lots of opportunities still, 1020 00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:33,799 Speaker 18: We've got all the architecture we need. We just need 1021 00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:36,959 Speaker 18: to keep pushing forward on it and keep pushing food 1022 00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:39,920 Speaker 18: and beverage and tourism. But obviously there's emerging sectors like 1023 00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:42,279 Speaker 18: advanced aviation and renewables and tech as well. 1024 00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:44,920 Speaker 2: So there is a lot of upside because of all 1025 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:47,400 Speaker 2: the free trade deals we've signed of late. Maybe the 1026 00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:49,920 Speaker 2: UA is good and it's got upside, but the British 1027 00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:52,080 Speaker 2: one seems to be genuinely gold Standard. 1028 00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:53,480 Speaker 8: I think so. 1029 00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:56,000 Speaker 18: I think it's a very good quality agreement and I 1030 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:58,000 Speaker 18: think there's a lot of opportunity and part of it 1031 00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:01,799 Speaker 18: is just encouraging. You're now seeing, for example, a lot 1032 00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:05,800 Speaker 18: of British firms investing in renewables in New Zealand, solar 1033 00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:08,600 Speaker 18: farms and things like that. And I think there's a 1034 00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 18: lot of opportunity for in the fact that our exporters 1035 00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:13,239 Speaker 18: are onto it right. I mean, our exports are up 1036 00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:15,240 Speaker 18: twenty one percent in a year when it's been pretty 1037 00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:18,400 Speaker 18: difficult trading around the world, you know, pre tariff's you know, 1038 00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:20,600 Speaker 18: that's when it's been growing. So you know, there's still 1039 00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:21,839 Speaker 18: lots of opportunity for us. 1040 00:51:22,040 --> 00:51:24,480 Speaker 2: Okay, a couple of domestic issues the Reserve Bank, and 1041 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:26,319 Speaker 2: was mentioning this just before the news, the twenty five 1042 00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:29,440 Speaker 2: percent cut that Nicholas managed to at twenty five percent, 1043 00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:33,520 Speaker 2: that reeks to me of waste. If you can slice 1044 00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:36,800 Speaker 2: somebody by twenty five percent and they're still operating, somebody 1045 00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:40,000 Speaker 2: was rolling around in money. Yeah. 1046 00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:42,000 Speaker 18: Look, our view and opposition was there was a lot 1047 00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:44,719 Speaker 18: of money being piled into the Reserve Bank. We also 1048 00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:46,920 Speaker 18: felt that they had a very confused mandate. If you 1049 00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:48,799 Speaker 18: remember at the time, one of the things we did 1050 00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:50,600 Speaker 18: in the first couple of weeks was to just say 1051 00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:53,000 Speaker 18: you are one hundred percent focused on lowering inflation. 1052 00:51:53,120 --> 00:51:53,879 Speaker 8: That is your job. 1053 00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:56,840 Speaker 18: You're not there to do any other stuff beyond that. 1054 00:51:56,840 --> 00:52:00,000 Speaker 18: That is your primary responsibility. And I think that helped. 1055 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:02,440 Speaker 18: I think, you know, moving what was called the dual mandation. 1056 00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 18: Putting that in place was important. But yeah, equally with 1057 00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:07,960 Speaker 18: you know, as we expect other government agencies and crownties 1058 00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:11,960 Speaker 18: to be responsible for with taxpayer money, we think that 1059 00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:15,120 Speaker 18: they also need to make savings and praying back you 1060 00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:16,200 Speaker 18: know what they're doing as well. 1061 00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:18,440 Speaker 2: How do you handle something And I asked this question 1062 00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:21,440 Speaker 2: before the news. So you fund an organization and you 1063 00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:24,920 Speaker 2: look for outcomes. Given there were three recessions, can we 1064 00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:27,359 Speaker 2: call them in competent or can you not lay that 1065 00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:29,000 Speaker 2: at their doorstep? In other words, how do you know 1066 00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 2: you're getting value for money? 1067 00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:33,920 Speaker 18: Well, I mean, I think you know what we can 1068 00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:36,480 Speaker 18: control is what we can control, and that is saying, well, 1069 00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:39,560 Speaker 18: we do have a decision around that mandate. Your job 1070 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:42,399 Speaker 18: as a reserve bank is to get inflation back under 1071 00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:43,799 Speaker 18: the band. It had been in the band for a 1072 00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:46,160 Speaker 18: long period of time. It had got completely out of 1073 00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:48,279 Speaker 18: control with the printing of cash, as we talked about, 1074 00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:50,640 Speaker 18: an opposition and also a government that frankly was wasting 1075 00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:53,160 Speaker 18: a lot of money. So the fiscal and monetary settings 1076 00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:56,040 Speaker 18: were completely out of whack. And then what happened was 1077 00:52:56,040 --> 00:52:58,000 Speaker 18: the Reserve Bank woke up and decide to take interest 1078 00:52:58,120 --> 00:53:00,919 Speaker 18: rates up and put the brakes on, while the labor 1079 00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 18: government kept spending like drunken salors, and we ended up 1080 00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:05,759 Speaker 18: with a lot of instability. And so you know, that's 1081 00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:07,520 Speaker 18: the mess that we're clanning up and working our way 1082 00:53:07,560 --> 00:53:10,120 Speaker 18: through now. But from my point of view, there was 1083 00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:11,799 Speaker 18: a lot of money being pumped into the Reserve Bank. 1084 00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:13,760 Speaker 18: They were doing a lot of periphery things that weren't 1085 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:16,120 Speaker 18: We're away from their core mandate, which was to get 1086 00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:20,000 Speaker 18: inflation back under three percent. They've now done that, which 1087 00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:22,400 Speaker 18: is helpful. We've done that by also getting rid of 1088 00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:25,200 Speaker 18: wasteful spending and fiscal and monetary policy working together to 1089 00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:27,839 Speaker 18: get inflation under control so we can lower interest rates, 1090 00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:29,680 Speaker 18: so we can grow the economy and get people in jobs. 1091 00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:33,080 Speaker 18: But equally, we don't feel there's a need for them 1092 00:53:33,120 --> 00:53:35,880 Speaker 18: to with the budget bid that we saw initially and 1093 00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:38,520 Speaker 18: what we've proposed to deliver. It's quite right we make 1094 00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:39,680 Speaker 18: that twenty five percent come. 1095 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:42,120 Speaker 2: Just before Easter, we had Summing and brown and twenty 1096 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:44,719 Speaker 2: billion dollars long term plan for health infrastructure. All of 1097 00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:48,040 Speaker 2: that sounds good until I read Health New Zealand's own report, 1098 00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:51,640 Speaker 2: which states quote they cannot effectively plan for asset renewals, 1099 00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:57,080 Speaker 2: replacements or optimize maintenance strategies. We do not have a 1100 00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:01,800 Speaker 2: consistent understanding of asset related rest and its priorities for investment. 1101 00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,959 Speaker 2: If they're that useless, why would you entrust twenty billion 1102 00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:06,760 Speaker 2: dollars worth of anything with them? 1103 00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:09,440 Speaker 18: Well, I think actually I would just say to you, 1104 00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:12,279 Speaker 18: I think New Zealand in general does a very poor 1105 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:15,000 Speaker 18: job of asset management. I think it's been recognized globally 1106 00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:16,600 Speaker 18: that we're amongst some of the worst in doing it. 1107 00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:18,200 Speaker 8: You've seen us. 1108 00:54:18,239 --> 00:54:22,440 Speaker 18: With respect to education actually pull out infrastructure and education 1109 00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:25,480 Speaker 18: as a separate sort of entity within it, and that's 1110 00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:27,360 Speaker 18: led to some good outcomes. We've actually been able to 1111 00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:31,120 Speaker 18: improve the standardized buildings from twenty percent. Eighty percent of 1112 00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:35,040 Speaker 18: the classrooms in New Zealand were bespoken done locally and 1113 00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:37,000 Speaker 18: as a result, we're about one point two million dollars 1114 00:54:37,040 --> 00:54:39,239 Speaker 18: in cost. We've managed to actually say, let's lift the 1115 00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:41,800 Speaker 18: standard rate up to sixty percent of all our buildings 1116 00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:44,040 Speaker 18: now are standard in classrooms and lo and behold, the 1117 00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:46,440 Speaker 18: cost has come down to eight hundred thousand dollars. And 1118 00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:49,040 Speaker 18: it's the same challenge frankly in the health estate as well. 1119 00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:51,920 Speaker 18: We've got I think it's about twelve hundred and thirteen 1120 00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:54,680 Speaker 18: hundred buildings I think across eighty six campuses or something, 1121 00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:57,279 Speaker 18: and the average age is about forty seven years. So 1122 00:54:57,360 --> 00:55:00,680 Speaker 18: this has been developing over multiple decades, but we've never 1123 00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:03,040 Speaker 18: ever had, believe it or not, a single long term 1124 00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:04,360 Speaker 18: plan that lays out. 1125 00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 8: A pipeline for health infrastructure. 1126 00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:09,200 Speaker 18: And that's partly renewing that capacity, partly investing in new facilities. 1127 00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:11,640 Speaker 18: But you know, as I've said to Simon and Chris Bishop, 1128 00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:14,120 Speaker 18: I'm very very open for us actually creating a separate 1129 00:55:14,160 --> 00:55:19,520 Speaker 18: health infrastructure entity that actually manages infrastructure projects well, because 1130 00:55:19,560 --> 00:55:22,880 Speaker 18: it's a different skill set. You know, when you're in education, 1131 00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:25,880 Speaker 18: you're already focused on curriculum and you don't have expertise 1132 00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:28,680 Speaker 18: and running the assets of classrooms and schools and the 1133 00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:31,120 Speaker 18: same happens in healthcare with hospitals and other. 1134 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:33,279 Speaker 8: Things, so there's a lot for us to do there. 1135 00:55:33,320 --> 00:55:35,600 Speaker 18: But I think the good start is actually what Simon's done, 1136 00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:38,080 Speaker 18: which is, you know, try and comprehensively set up a 1137 00:55:38,120 --> 00:55:40,520 Speaker 18: plan and then think about how we phase this stuff and. 1138 00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:42,000 Speaker 8: Open it up to private capital too. 1139 00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:44,200 Speaker 2: You're looking forward to Gliberly. 1140 00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:47,280 Speaker 18: I am really Mica. I mean it's a pretty special place. 1141 00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:49,439 Speaker 18: It's obviously as a kid growing up in New Zealand, 1142 00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:51,320 Speaker 18: I've read a lot about it. I always love history 1143 00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:53,319 Speaker 18: and being a history buff and read a lot of 1144 00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:56,359 Speaker 18: stories about it. And yeah, I just think it's really 1145 00:55:56,360 --> 00:55:59,360 Speaker 18: poignantless week to be here in the UK talking defense 1146 00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:00,880 Speaker 18: and the work that we've been doing with the Brits, 1147 00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:03,279 Speaker 18: and then thinking one hundred and ten years ago, you know, 1148 00:56:03,400 --> 00:56:05,960 Speaker 18: we were working with Bretts as well in Gallipoli, and 1149 00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:08,160 Speaker 18: it's gonna be very special one hundred and tenth commemorate. 1150 00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:10,200 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, commemoration go well. 1151 00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:12,200 Speaker 2: Appreciate you making the time, Chris of a luxam on 1152 00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:13,600 Speaker 2: the other side of the world for us. The Smalling 1153 00:56:13,640 --> 00:56:14,160 Speaker 2: thirteen to. 1154 00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:19,640 Speaker 1: Eight, The Vike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, 1155 00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:21,000 Speaker 1: powered by the News talks. 1156 00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:21,359 Speaker 19: It'd be. 1157 00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:25,440 Speaker 2: Ten minutes away from Mike back to the police Mic 1158 00:56:25,400 --> 00:56:27,600 Speaker 2: co worker' been you where the physical test for police 1159 00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:30,360 Speaker 2: recruitment occur. They have plenty of turning up, which is great, 1160 00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:33,120 Speaker 2: but some don't seem to be prepared for the tasks required, 1161 00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:35,279 Speaker 2: takes the longer to graduate. That's I wouldn't have thought 1162 00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:37,160 Speaker 2: is the end of the world, because the thing about 1163 00:56:37,160 --> 00:56:39,840 Speaker 2: physical fitnesses you can change it. Mike, the five hundred 1164 00:56:39,880 --> 00:56:42,680 Speaker 2: officers might not happen. As a retired officer, I say 1165 00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:45,000 Speaker 2: it must always be quality over quantity, otherwise that we 1166 00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:48,160 Speaker 2: have a bigger problem getting rid of substandard officer. Not well, 1167 00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:50,160 Speaker 2: that's true, And as I was trying to say to 1168 00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:53,080 Speaker 2: Casey Costello this fixation, I don't know what I'm assuming 1169 00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:55,319 Speaker 2: Labour feeds the media with this and all. We might 1170 00:56:55,360 --> 00:56:57,160 Speaker 2: not be getting to five hundred. If we get to 1171 00:56:57,200 --> 00:57:00,200 Speaker 2: four eighty two, and generally the surveys tell us we'll 1172 00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:02,160 Speaker 2: safer in the streets and more people are being rounded up, 1173 00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:04,359 Speaker 2: more people are being arrested, and there's fewer ram raids, 1174 00:57:04,400 --> 00:57:07,000 Speaker 2: and generally speaking, they've got the issue together. Doesn't really 1175 00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:09,000 Speaker 2: matter that you're fourteen short or whatever. The case may be, 1176 00:57:09,120 --> 00:57:11,000 Speaker 2: or what if you get to five oh three? Is 1177 00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:12,640 Speaker 2: that a big party? And all look at it? I mean, 1178 00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:14,440 Speaker 2: you know, we're fixating on the numbers, and I'm not 1179 00:57:14,440 --> 00:57:16,680 Speaker 2: sure that's the smartest thing to do. I've got some 1180 00:57:16,880 --> 00:57:20,360 Speaker 2: very good news for you. My campaign to get the 1181 00:57:20,400 --> 00:57:25,040 Speaker 2: snooker on television might actually be about to bear fruit 1182 00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:26,200 Speaker 2: more in a moment nine. 1183 00:57:26,120 --> 00:57:30,320 Speaker 1: To eight, the Mike Hosking Breakfast with a Vita Retirement 1184 00:57:30,320 --> 00:57:32,600 Speaker 1: Communities News togs head block. 1185 00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:34,200 Speaker 2: To the good news five minutes away from eight text 1186 00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:37,160 Speaker 2: I received first thing this morning morning, Mike, Chris from Sky. 1187 00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:41,160 Speaker 2: Could you please pass this on to the team. We're 1188 00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:43,560 Speaker 2: working through the logistics of getting coverage of the Crucible 1189 00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:46,280 Speaker 2: competition from the quarterfinals onwards. Can't promise anything, but I'll 1190 00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:47,800 Speaker 2: let you know tonight and we'll have an update. So 1191 00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:50,479 Speaker 2: that's Chris from Sky. Came out of our conversation last 1192 00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:55,200 Speaker 2: week with Sophie Maloney who runs Sky and once again 1193 00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:57,720 Speaker 2: on your behalf maybe my own. I see we the 1194 00:57:57,720 --> 00:58:00,840 Speaker 2: hell's the snooker And if all the snooker you want 1195 00:58:00,840 --> 00:58:02,360 Speaker 2: to run, you want to run the World Championships. The 1196 00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:05,720 Speaker 2: World Championships have just begun in the last day boil 1197 00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:07,520 Speaker 2: over in the round one, Kira and Wilson, who's the 1198 00:58:07,520 --> 00:58:10,240 Speaker 2: world champion, lost his first round match. The Curse of 1199 00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:12,880 Speaker 2: the Crucible. The Crucible is the greatest theater of sport 1200 00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:15,760 Speaker 2: you can get as a couple of thousand people packing 1201 00:58:16,280 --> 00:58:18,240 Speaker 2: over a period of a couple of weeks, and it 1202 00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:21,480 Speaker 2: is an arduous tournament. If you don't follow snooker, suddenly 1203 00:58:21,560 --> 00:58:24,240 Speaker 2: all of the rules change. So the opening rounds are 1204 00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:25,920 Speaker 2: the best of nineteen and by the time you get 1205 00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:27,439 Speaker 2: to the end of the snooker you've played a couple 1206 00:58:27,480 --> 00:58:29,760 Speaker 2: of weeks worth. Are you playing best of thirty five? 1207 00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:32,600 Speaker 2: So these are long, long matches and they test the 1208 00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:36,920 Speaker 2: resilience and the mental strength of any snooker player anyway. 1209 00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 2: The other important point apart from cra and Wilson losing 1210 00:58:39,600 --> 00:58:42,040 Speaker 2: is Ronnie is back for his foot really his first 1211 00:58:42,040 --> 00:58:45,040 Speaker 2: time this year, and he played in the very early 1212 00:58:45,080 --> 00:58:47,760 Speaker 2: part of the year, played appallingly, stormed out, whactor's que 1213 00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:50,000 Speaker 2: on the table, stormed out and hasn't been seen since. 1214 00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:53,480 Speaker 2: He's returning now he may still pull out. He's due 1215 00:58:53,480 --> 00:58:56,560 Speaker 2: to players first round overnight New Zealand time. He may 1216 00:58:56,640 --> 00:58:58,840 Speaker 2: still pull out he's playing a guy called Ali Carter. 1217 00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:02,280 Speaker 2: We hope he doesn't because he's one of the greatest 1218 00:59:02,320 --> 00:59:04,120 Speaker 2: and he's well worth watching. Anyway. The point of all 1219 00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:08,720 Speaker 2: of this is the world's premiere snooker tournament is not 1220 00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:12,680 Speaker 2: available on New Zealand television, and that is a media 1221 00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:15,520 Speaker 2: crime in my book. I don't care what else. You 1222 00:59:15,600 --> 00:59:17,320 Speaker 2: don't have to run the snooker all year round, the 1223 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:19,200 Speaker 2: same way you don't have to run every sport and 1224 00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:22,080 Speaker 2: every tournament and every day. You can't do it. But 1225 00:59:22,120 --> 00:59:24,880 Speaker 2: when it comes to something like snooker, the pre eminent 1226 00:59:24,920 --> 00:59:28,000 Speaker 2: event should be available to us, especially in a world 1227 00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:31,960 Speaker 2: of streaming at our leisure, especially from somebody who likes SkySports. 1228 00:59:31,960 --> 00:59:34,480 Speaker 2: So it looks like they might have heard my please 1229 00:59:35,040 --> 00:59:36,720 Speaker 2: and they're at least working on it. And from the 1230 00:59:36,800 --> 00:59:38,920 Speaker 2: quarter finals on we might well be able to see 1231 00:59:38,960 --> 00:59:41,200 Speaker 2: snooker at the Crucible, which would be quite something. You 1232 00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:44,120 Speaker 2: don't have to thank me now. Now we got more 1233 00:59:44,120 --> 00:59:47,680 Speaker 2: sport coming up shortly, Andrew Sabil, Jason Pine. I'm just 1234 00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:49,800 Speaker 2: trying to work out what's more exciting. The f one 1235 00:59:49,880 --> 00:59:52,400 Speaker 2: was good because we all had a holiday. We could 1236 00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:56,760 Speaker 2: all without too much upset watch yesterday in Jedda, and 1237 00:59:56,800 --> 00:59:58,520 Speaker 2: it was good race as far as Lawson was concerned. 1238 00:59:58,520 --> 01:00:00,360 Speaker 2: It's probably his best race of the seas and so 1239 01:00:00,440 --> 01:00:03,400 Speaker 2: far he looked settled. He finished eleventh, was pinned for twelfth, 1240 01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:05,520 Speaker 2: didn't really matter who wasn't gonna score points anyway, but 1241 01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:09,400 Speaker 2: the point being he did well or was it the 1242 01:00:09,440 --> 01:00:11,680 Speaker 2: Warriors anyway?

They won't draw with Perth. 1286 01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:43,640 Speaker 10: They'll beat Perth, Perth of being very very poor. So yeah, 1287 01:02:43,680 --> 01:02:47,440 Speaker 10: Sunday afternoon they'll claim the Premier's Plate, the regular season 1288 01:02:47,520 --> 01:02:51,480 Speaker 10: silverware first time of asking. Incredible story, Yeah it's and 1289 01:02:51,520 --> 01:02:53,480 Speaker 10: then beyond that, of course they could go on and 1290 01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:54,160 Speaker 10: win the whole thing. 1291 01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:55,600 Speaker 5: So yeah, quite. 1292 01:02:55,640 --> 01:02:58,240 Speaker 2: What's the format? I mean? First two questions, what's the 1293 01:02:58,280 --> 01:03:00,240 Speaker 2: plate look like? Is it a plate worth how in 1294 01:03:00,280 --> 01:03:02,720 Speaker 2: one year? Display or stick in the cupboard? Two? What's 1295 01:03:02,760 --> 01:03:04,000 Speaker 2: the format for the playoffs? 1296 01:03:05,040 --> 01:03:08,480 Speaker 10: Plate is as it says, a plate is quite big silver, 1297 01:03:08,720 --> 01:03:10,440 Speaker 10: and yes, you would stick it in the cabinet. The 1298 01:03:10,560 --> 01:03:13,200 Speaker 10: format for the finals top two go straight through to 1299 01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:16,280 Speaker 10: the Semis. Three plays six and four plays five for 1300 01:03:16,360 --> 01:03:18,520 Speaker 10: the right to go to the Semis. The Semis a 1301 01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:21,880 Speaker 10: home and away and then there's one Grand Final. So 1302 01:03:22,640 --> 01:03:25,360 Speaker 10: Awkle FC would probably only be two games away from 1303 01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:27,560 Speaker 10: from winning it that have a or three games rather 1304 01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:29,200 Speaker 10: the home and away semi and then the grand final. 1305 01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:32,560 Speaker 5: Okay, so Mike, my understanding is they'll sell that Perth 1306 01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:36,760 Speaker 5: game out this weekend. Yeah. Well, which is which is 1307 01:03:36,760 --> 01:03:41,240 Speaker 5: probably no great surprise given the crowds have had this year. Jason, 1308 01:03:41,320 --> 01:03:43,400 Speaker 5: will they would they go? And I think it's the 1309 01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:45,240 Speaker 5: A League's call. But would they go to Eden Park 1310 01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:46,560 Speaker 5: for any possible grand final? 1311 01:03:47,040 --> 01:03:47,240 Speaker 2: Yeah? 1312 01:03:47,280 --> 01:03:49,720 Speaker 10: I don't think they can if they want to have 1313 01:03:49,760 --> 01:03:52,120 Speaker 10: it on the Saturday because there's already a game scheduled. 1314 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:54,520 Speaker 10: Are Blues in the rugby game there on the Saturday. 1315 01:03:54,560 --> 01:03:59,200 Speaker 10: But look, here's the here's the conundrum. The league itself 1316 01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:02,800 Speaker 10: takes the tick revenue for the finals. Therefore they want 1317 01:04:02,800 --> 01:04:06,240 Speaker 10: it at the biggest possible ground. Auckland f C want 1318 01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:09,240 Speaker 10: it at a fortress like go Media has become for them. 1319 01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:12,040 Speaker 10: Now there's a precedent last year the Central Coast Marin 1320 01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:14,360 Speaker 10: has held it at their home ground which only holds 1321 01:04:14,400 --> 01:04:17,200 Speaker 10: twenty thousand. So look, I think it's going to be 1322 01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:19,400 Speaker 10: at go Media and I think that's the right call. 1323 01:04:20,040 --> 01:04:22,840 Speaker 2: Interesting, the Warrior is said. 1324 01:04:22,800 --> 01:04:25,320 Speaker 5: But wouldn't it be? I mean, great atmosphere at Mount Smart, 1325 01:04:25,320 --> 01:04:27,360 Speaker 5: wouldn't it be? Wouldn't it be a fantastic look. 1326 01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:30,920 Speaker 2: If they could see that? 1327 01:04:31,040 --> 01:04:32,080 Speaker 5: That's so od eaton parks. 1328 01:04:32,480 --> 01:04:34,360 Speaker 10: You look at even part guys, I mean even you're 1329 01:04:34,400 --> 01:04:35,280 Speaker 10: watching a game of rugby. 1330 01:04:35,320 --> 01:04:35,600 Speaker 5: The year. 1331 01:04:35,600 --> 01:04:36,760 Speaker 10: We've talked about this a lot. 1332 01:04:36,840 --> 01:04:39,720 Speaker 5: You know you're so far back. I know you're right. 1333 01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:41,680 Speaker 10: If you sold, if you're so reckon in five thousand, 1334 01:04:41,680 --> 01:04:42,360 Speaker 10: it would be great. 1335 01:04:42,520 --> 01:04:43,840 Speaker 5: But you're so far away. 1336 01:04:43,880 --> 01:04:47,000 Speaker 10: That's the beauty of go media Mount Smart for Warriors 1337 01:04:47,040 --> 01:04:49,680 Speaker 10: and for Auckland FC, how close you are to the game. 1338 01:04:49,960 --> 01:04:52,440 Speaker 2: You've also got an insult factor. Haven't you like that? 1339 01:04:52,520 --> 01:04:55,160 Speaker 2: You can play at the duney ground until you're really 1340 01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:56,880 Speaker 2: good and then we'll pick you at the flash ground. 1341 01:04:56,880 --> 01:04:58,520 Speaker 2: And there's something wrong with that, isn't it. It's like 1342 01:04:58,560 --> 01:05:00,320 Speaker 2: when I used to play save. You're a remember this 1343 01:05:00,360 --> 01:05:02,840 Speaker 2: When I made representative football side. We played at English 1344 01:05:02,880 --> 01:05:06,520 Speaker 2: Park and the grass there was beautiful. 1345 01:05:06,680 --> 01:05:10,800 Speaker 5: Hold on a minute, how come whatever sport we talk about, 1346 01:05:10,840 --> 01:05:13,920 Speaker 5: you've made a representative team. And what representative team was this? 1347 01:05:14,080 --> 01:05:16,240 Speaker 2: I don't know, I can't remember, but it was some 1348 01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:18,400 Speaker 2: sort of represent It was like, you know what football is, 1349 01:05:18,440 --> 01:05:20,800 Speaker 2: It's like the under twelves, the under elevens, the under eights, 1350 01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:22,920 Speaker 2: whatever it was. Anyway, the point was that we're at 1351 01:05:22,920 --> 01:05:24,840 Speaker 2: English Park and Christ did you know English Park? 1352 01:05:24,960 --> 01:05:26,760 Speaker 5: Jason, beautiful, beautiful. 1353 01:05:27,040 --> 01:05:27,240 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1354 01:05:27,880 --> 01:05:30,400 Speaker 2: I couldn't believe the quality of the surface. And I 1355 01:05:30,480 --> 01:05:34,560 Speaker 2: was running on and the only the abiding memory I have, unfortunately, 1356 01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:37,400 Speaker 2: is not long into the second half, I was subbed 1357 01:05:37,640 --> 01:05:40,120 Speaker 2: and I've never been so devastated in my life. I 1358 01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:42,600 Speaker 2: thought I'd made a better contribution than that. I was 1359 01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:46,560 Speaker 2: thinking about packing a sad but I walked off, you know, quietly, 1360 01:05:46,600 --> 01:05:47,800 Speaker 2: and just sat on the bench. 1361 01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:53,320 Speaker 10: Never to be seen, never to be seen in that 1362 01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:54,280 Speaker 10: representative team. 1363 01:05:54,320 --> 01:05:58,000 Speaker 5: Again. It was a cycling track round English Park, wasn't it. 1364 01:05:58,120 --> 01:06:04,360 Speaker 2: No, No, okay, somewhere else your weird memory line. 1365 01:06:04,720 --> 01:06:07,640 Speaker 5: The heah, the Warriors, What about the Warriors? 1366 01:06:07,640 --> 01:06:10,120 Speaker 2: They now answer me this question. You both can answer 1367 01:06:10,120 --> 01:06:11,680 Speaker 2: the question. Say, I'll ask you first, what do you 1368 01:06:11,680 --> 01:06:15,000 Speaker 2: do about Luke metcalf right? He can't kick? He clearly 1369 01:06:15,040 --> 01:06:18,240 Speaker 2: can't kick. He doesn't know how to kick, and therefore 1370 01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:23,320 Speaker 2: we need a proper kicker. Yeah, but he won the game, 1371 01:06:23,680 --> 01:06:25,520 Speaker 2: Yes he did, But it was in a straight line 1372 01:06:25,520 --> 01:06:28,520 Speaker 2: from fifty. I backed myself from forty probably not fifty. 1373 01:06:28,560 --> 01:06:31,320 Speaker 2: But does that then counterbalance. 1374 01:06:30,920 --> 01:06:35,000 Speaker 5: When you were a representative kicker, Yeah, you would, you 1375 01:06:35,040 --> 01:06:37,920 Speaker 5: would have nailed that. Look, it's still it's still a 1376 01:06:38,240 --> 01:06:41,000 Speaker 5: pretty difficult kick from fifty meters to win the game. 1377 01:06:41,040 --> 01:06:41,720 Speaker 5: The pressures on. 1378 01:06:41,960 --> 01:06:42,600 Speaker 10: Yeah, but you wouldn't. 1379 01:06:42,600 --> 01:06:45,120 Speaker 2: Wouldn't be wouldn't is my point? Say, you wouldn't be 1380 01:06:45,200 --> 01:06:46,600 Speaker 2: there if you'd got the other four. 1381 01:06:46,840 --> 01:06:49,720 Speaker 5: I wouldn't give up totally. Look, the I think the 1382 01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:53,400 Speaker 5: goal kicking stand in the league's improved recently. Years ago, 1383 01:06:53,840 --> 01:06:55,959 Speaker 5: goal league goal kickers compared to the Union go ws 1384 01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:56,840 Speaker 5: were terrible, weren't they? 1385 01:06:56,960 --> 01:06:59,240 Speaker 2: They were change? 1386 01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:01,560 Speaker 12: You know, I know. 1387 01:07:01,680 --> 01:07:05,160 Speaker 5: I think Dan Carter has been or maybe pre season 1388 01:07:05,240 --> 01:07:10,120 Speaker 5: was working absolutely well. Maybe not, maybe not all the kickers, 1389 01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:11,840 Speaker 5: or maybe not for a very long time, but some 1390 01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:12,840 Speaker 5: sort of work anyway. 1391 01:07:13,120 --> 01:07:15,920 Speaker 2: Does that explain? That's the question. Then if Dan Carter's 1392 01:07:15,960 --> 01:07:17,800 Speaker 2: working with the kickers and that he still can't kick, 1393 01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:18,680 Speaker 2: you're either. 1394 01:07:19,880 --> 01:07:22,200 Speaker 5: Maybe they need to bring him back in. Here's what 1395 01:07:22,200 --> 01:07:23,760 Speaker 5: they need to do. Here's what they need to do. 1396 01:07:23,800 --> 01:07:24,040 Speaker 2: Guys. 1397 01:07:24,080 --> 01:07:25,960 Speaker 10: Luke Metcalf needs to stay in there. I think he's 1398 01:07:26,000 --> 01:07:28,680 Speaker 10: doing well, but give the kicking to Adam Pompey when 1399 01:07:28,960 --> 01:07:32,400 Speaker 10: Shawn Johnson was last year, Adam Pompey took the kicks 1400 01:07:32,400 --> 01:07:33,200 Speaker 10: and was very good. 1401 01:07:33,320 --> 01:07:37,120 Speaker 2: He looked, he looked, didn't he He looked un orthodox 1402 01:07:37,160 --> 01:07:38,440 Speaker 2: in his approach, but they worked. 1403 01:07:39,320 --> 01:07:39,560 Speaker 5: Yep. 1404 01:07:39,680 --> 01:07:41,600 Speaker 10: It just has to go between the stakes and yeah, 1405 01:07:41,640 --> 01:07:43,560 Speaker 10: you're right. Look Metcalfrom the start of that game. Couldn't 1406 01:07:43,600 --> 01:07:44,920 Speaker 10: kick the door down, could he know? 1407 01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:46,400 Speaker 19: And and but and. 1408 01:07:46,360 --> 01:07:47,840 Speaker 10: He missed the drop at the end. But you've got 1409 01:07:47,880 --> 01:07:49,720 Speaker 10: to give it to the guy. He wanted that that 1410 01:07:49,840 --> 01:07:50,920 Speaker 10: kick right at the end to win. 1411 01:07:51,000 --> 01:07:54,720 Speaker 5: It all turned out and he scored the last tried 1412 01:07:54,800 --> 01:07:57,880 Speaker 5: and he was there's no way he's going to catch 1413 01:07:57,920 --> 01:07:58,959 Speaker 5: that pass and he caught. 1414 01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:01,919 Speaker 2: Fantastic as a player. I'm not criticizing him as place 1415 01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:03,320 Speaker 2: just to kick it. Listen brief break more in a 1416 01:08:03,360 --> 01:08:05,680 Speaker 2: Moment fourteen past. 1417 01:08:05,120 --> 01:08:09,880 Speaker 1: The Mic Hosking Breakfast Full Show podcast on Iheartradiot by 1418 01:08:09,960 --> 01:08:10,800 Speaker 1: News Talks. 1419 01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:13,440 Speaker 2: It by His Talks Evy.

But then I've got 1426 01:08:29,640 --> 01:08:31,519 Speaker 2: one sad that says the ground with the cycling track 1427 01:08:31,600 --> 01:08:33,560 Speaker 2: is dent and overland Hornby. So you've just sown a 1428 01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:35,160 Speaker 2: whole lot of confusion in people's minds. 1429 01:08:35,200 --> 01:08:37,960 Speaker 5: You don't know is the cycling track still there? 1430 01:08:38,280 --> 01:08:38,439 Speaker 14: Nah? 1431 01:08:39,080 --> 01:08:42,120 Speaker 5: So I don't think I didn't over have one two 1432 01:08:42,240 --> 01:08:43,800 Speaker 5: yet it's right, Mitt Catall. 1433 01:08:43,520 --> 01:08:46,160 Speaker 2: Is kicking at sixty percent, Pompy at seventy seven. I 1434 01:08:46,240 --> 01:08:49,360 Speaker 2: rest my case. Numbers, numbers don't lie. 1435 01:08:49,479 --> 01:08:52,320 Speaker 5: It wasn't the wasn't it. I thought the defense was outstanding, 1436 01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:55,800 Speaker 5: brilliant the other night. How do you explain leaking? What 1437 01:08:55,960 --> 01:08:56,880 Speaker 5: was it? Forty to fifty? 1438 01:08:56,960 --> 01:08:58,680 Speaker 2: You can't storm psychological? 1439 01:08:58,800 --> 01:09:01,160 Speaker 5: Then they tuned that around to beat the Broncos, and 1440 01:09:01,240 --> 01:09:03,280 Speaker 5: the Storm get beaten by the Dolphins, can't. 1441 01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:04,960 Speaker 2: I don't know what's going on unless you want to 1442 01:09:04,960 --> 01:09:07,200 Speaker 2: say it's rigged, Butcher, it isn't. So I don't know 1443 01:09:07,760 --> 01:09:10,080 Speaker 2: how you explain any of it. But the point is, 1444 01:09:10,320 --> 01:09:12,680 Speaker 2: and you would agree with this, Jason, is that we're 1445 01:09:12,760 --> 01:09:15,200 Speaker 2: second on the table, not officially, but if you look 1446 01:09:15,200 --> 01:09:17,680 Speaker 2: at the points, we may as well be second, which 1447 01:09:17,760 --> 01:09:19,760 Speaker 2: is top four, which is home samis you know how 1448 01:09:19,800 --> 01:09:21,360 Speaker 2: it goes? So this is this is our year. 1449 01:09:22,400 --> 01:09:23,320 Speaker 10: It is early Mike. 1450 01:09:23,479 --> 01:09:26,120 Speaker 5: Let's let's where are they actually on the table? 1451 01:09:26,160 --> 01:09:28,880 Speaker 2: Well, technically they're third or fourth. They've got ten points. 1452 01:09:28,960 --> 01:09:32,559 Speaker 5: There's the I think, but the vibe they're giving off, 1453 01:09:32,600 --> 01:09:33,519 Speaker 5: they shouldn't be second. 1454 01:09:34,120 --> 01:09:36,280 Speaker 2: It was no, no, no, because one of the teams 1455 01:09:36,320 --> 01:09:38,760 Speaker 2: that's above us technically has played The Raiders have played 1456 01:09:38,800 --> 01:09:41,400 Speaker 2: seven games. We've only played Sex, so you've got apples 1457 01:09:41,439 --> 01:09:43,840 Speaker 2: and apples, but we've still got ten points each, so 1458 01:09:43,920 --> 01:09:48,000 Speaker 2: technically we're second. So it's it's the same thing. Can't 1459 01:09:48,080 --> 01:09:48,400 Speaker 2: argue with that. 1460 01:09:48,600 --> 01:09:50,479 Speaker 10: Are the Bulldogs going? By the way, I didn't take 1461 01:09:50,520 --> 01:09:52,080 Speaker 10: that's I think anybody did the Bulldogs? 1462 01:09:52,120 --> 01:09:53,519 Speaker 5: What do I say? Six from Sex? 1463 01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:55,960 Speaker 2: Well, everyone thought Penrith was going to be a dynasty 1464 01:09:56,040 --> 01:09:58,120 Speaker 2: until they're not. So you know, that's how that's how 1465 01:09:58,160 --> 01:10:00,360 Speaker 2: sport goes. I suppose, isn't it At the end of 1466 01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:02,160 Speaker 2: the day. By the way, quick question for you, sav 1467 01:10:02,320 --> 01:10:05,439 Speaker 2: if I get the snooker on sky Sport by the 1468 01:10:05,560 --> 01:10:07,880 Speaker 2: end of the world Championships. Have you heard the story. 1469 01:10:09,280 --> 01:10:11,559 Speaker 5: I've been I've been sort of keeping up. We ran 1470 01:10:11,600 --> 01:10:15,080 Speaker 5: a story last week about the young Welsh guy doing 1471 01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:16,720 Speaker 5: the double one four seven. Did you see that? 1472 01:10:16,840 --> 01:10:18,160 Speaker 2: Yes? I did, of course I watched. 1473 01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:19,559 Speaker 5: How did he did?

Has he done? 1476 01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:23,439 Speaker 2: Okay, well, they've only just that he hasn't played yet. 1477 01:10:23,479 --> 01:10:25,800 Speaker 2: They only just they've only just begun in the play. Anyway, 1478 01:10:25,880 --> 01:10:27,680 Speaker 2: My point is that I put so much pressure on 1479 01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:31,280 Speaker 2: Sky they are going to look at bringing the let 1480 01:10:31,360 --> 01:10:33,679 Speaker 2: apart from the quarterfinals on of snooker on to Sky, 1481 01:10:33,800 --> 01:10:35,200 Speaker 2: onto the Sky platform so we can. 1482 01:10:35,080 --> 01:10:35,519 Speaker 8: All watch it. 1483 01:10:35,920 --> 01:10:39,120 Speaker 2: If I'm successful in that campaign, Actually I'll ask you, Jason, 1484 01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:42,520 Speaker 2: you're the better journalist. If I'm successful in that campaign, 1485 01:10:43,720 --> 01:10:45,960 Speaker 2: is that, do I win a hell Berger Ward, because 1486 01:10:45,960 --> 01:10:46,439 Speaker 2: that'll be like. 1487 01:10:46,600 --> 01:10:52,280 Speaker 10: Well, surely a Nobel Peace Prize of some describer. 1488 01:10:52,439 --> 01:10:54,800 Speaker 2: Modesty prevented me from making that suggestion, but I mean, 1489 01:10:54,880 --> 01:10:56,280 Speaker 2: come on, is it is it? 1490 01:10:56,520 --> 01:10:57,600 Speaker 19: Is it just you? 1491 01:10:58,160 --> 01:10:58,680 Speaker 2: I believe it? 1492 01:10:59,360 --> 01:10:59,479 Speaker 4: Well? 1493 01:10:59,479 --> 01:11:01,080 Speaker 2: I have no it didn't see anyone else has made 1494 01:11:01,080 --> 01:11:02,800 Speaker 2: an attempt and I haven't. It looks like I'm going 1495 01:11:02,880 --> 01:11:05,320 Speaker 2: to be successful, sav and I want it covered on TV. 1496 01:11:05,400 --> 01:11:06,000 Speaker 2: One sport too. 1497 01:11:06,040 --> 01:11:08,360 Speaker 5: By the way, So do you think if you started 1498 01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:12,439 Speaker 5: all of a sudden the campaign about showing reruns of 1499 01:11:12,520 --> 01:11:15,040 Speaker 5: Faulty Tag and TV one and we would we would 1500 01:11:15,080 --> 01:11:15,680 Speaker 5: succumb to you. 1501 01:11:16,320 --> 01:11:19,760 Speaker 2: I don't think so, It's not impossible, mate. Quick word 1502 01:11:19,840 --> 01:11:24,040 Speaker 2: saville about the Super Rugby Crusaders are winnings. They're fantastic. 1503 01:11:24,600 --> 01:11:26,120 Speaker 2: That was the highlight of the wigand wasn't it. 1504 01:11:27,320 --> 01:11:30,600 Speaker 5: It was a great game, very dramatic. Blues should have 1505 01:11:30,680 --> 01:11:32,920 Speaker 5: probably won that. They had heaps of heaps of possession 1506 01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:37,680 Speaker 5: and territory and but the Crusaders a bit of a 1507 01:11:37,720 --> 01:11:39,560 Speaker 5: bit of crusaders of ole. You know, they should have 1508 01:11:39,640 --> 01:11:42,000 Speaker 5: probably lost to the Hurricanes a week before, probably should 1509 01:11:42,000 --> 01:11:44,120 Speaker 5: have lost to the Blues, but they didn't. They won. Yeah, 1510 01:11:45,080 --> 01:11:47,920 Speaker 5: building momentum, building confidence, So I know that they're looking 1511 01:11:47,920 --> 01:11:50,960 Speaker 5: pretty good. Look, James O'Connor's certainly added something off the bench, 1512 01:11:51,200 --> 01:11:55,120 Speaker 5: purch his experience. Yet. Yeah, it is seems I've fitted 1513 01:11:55,160 --> 01:11:56,559 Speaker 5: in well too.

We all had boring power 1589 01:15:07,880 --> 01:15:09,680 Speaker 2: problems over the last couple of days, but this was 1590 01:15:09,720 --> 01:15:13,080 Speaker 2: a particularly weird problem that you may have an answer 1591 01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:15,960 Speaker 2: to because I have a question anyway. That's after Rod. 1592 01:15:16,360 --> 01:15:18,000 Speaker 2: It was next after the news. 1593 01:15:18,600 --> 01:15:22,960 Speaker 1: News, opinion, and everything in between, the mic hosting break 1594 01:15:23,000 --> 01:15:27,599 Speaker 1: best with Bailey's real estate, your local experts across residential, commercial, 1595 01:15:27,720 --> 01:15:29,320 Speaker 1: and rural news togs, Dad been. 1596 01:15:29,400 --> 01:15:31,280 Speaker 2: You caut up with it over the weekend. But you know, 1597 01:15:31,400 --> 01:15:34,000 Speaker 2: you've got all the car companies that aren't exporting cars 1598 01:15:34,040 --> 01:15:36,040 Speaker 2: to the United States anymore. You've got all the companies 1599 01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:38,479 Speaker 2: who were sort of stuck between China and the United 1600 01:15:38,520 --> 01:15:41,720 Speaker 2: States and looking for freer markets to do business with DHL, 1601 01:15:42,400 --> 01:15:44,240 Speaker 2: which we all in some way, shape or form deal 1602 01:15:44,320 --> 01:15:48,920 Speaker 2: with given careers. DHL have suspended all high value US delivery. So, 1603 01:15:48,960 --> 01:15:50,600 Speaker 2: in other words, if you're looking to send something to 1604 01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:53,400 Speaker 2: this is how isolating it's becoming. If you're looking to 1605 01:15:53,439 --> 01:15:56,519 Speaker 2: send something to the US, DHL will not do it 1606 01:15:56,640 --> 01:15:59,479 Speaker 2: for you anymore. So anything worth more than about twelve 1607 01:15:59,560 --> 01:16:02,759 Speaker 2: hundred dollars, say a thousand bucks, they're stopping the shipments 1608 01:16:02,840 --> 01:16:06,960 Speaker 2: until further notice. So business to business will still go ahead, 1609 01:16:07,400 --> 01:16:10,200 Speaker 2: although they will be delayed. Previously, packages worth up to 1610 01:16:10,200 --> 01:16:11,840 Speaker 2: two and a half grand could enter the States with 1611 01:16:11,960 --> 01:16:15,120 Speaker 2: minimal paperwork. Trump's changed all that, so they've caused a 1612 01:16:15,160 --> 01:16:18,639 Speaker 2: surge in formal customs clearances, so they're handling that around 1613 01:16:18,680 --> 01:16:20,840 Speaker 2: the clock and no one can cope. They're clamping down 1614 01:16:20,920 --> 01:16:24,800 Speaker 2: on deliveries under eight hundred dollars as well. That's specifically 1615 01:16:24,880 --> 01:16:27,479 Speaker 2: out of China and Hong Kong. That starts on May 1616 01:16:27,560 --> 01:16:31,600 Speaker 2: the second. So just getting into or stuff into the 1617 01:16:31,760 --> 01:16:34,280 Speaker 2: United States. For you know, we talk about companies and 1618 01:16:34,479 --> 01:16:36,360 Speaker 2: businesses that we may or may not deal with, but 1619 01:16:36,760 --> 01:16:40,560 Speaker 2: a courier not being or not delivering things to the 1620 01:16:40,760 --> 01:16:44,320 Speaker 2: United States of America gives you an indication as to 1621 01:16:44,439 --> 01:16:46,360 Speaker 2: just how weird the whole thing's become. Don't you reckon 1622 01:16:46,400 --> 01:16:46,920 Speaker 2: twenty two to. 1623 01:16:47,040 --> 01:16:51,920 Speaker 16: Nine International correspondence with endsit Eye Insurance Peace of mind 1624 01:16:52,000 --> 01:16:52,920 Speaker 16: for New Zealand Business. 1625 01:16:53,560 --> 01:16:57,200 Speaker 19: We go Rod Little well us morning mate, goobolity, Happy 1626 01:16:57,240 --> 01:16:57,920 Speaker 19: east to me, I. 1627 01:16:57,960 --> 01:16:59,439 Speaker 2: Know, happy easter to see you too. A couple of 1628 01:16:59,479 --> 01:17:01,719 Speaker 2: things about the local body elections which we haven't talked 1629 01:17:01,800 --> 01:17:03,680 Speaker 2: much of, and they're coming in early May, and you 1630 01:17:03,800 --> 01:17:06,439 Speaker 2: had to get registered first of all. How many people 1631 01:17:06,520 --> 01:17:09,760 Speaker 2: are registered? Are people genuinely interested in these? How many 1632 01:17:09,840 --> 01:17:11,840 Speaker 2: councils are up for grabs, how much of a swing 1633 01:17:11,960 --> 01:17:14,400 Speaker 2: will they be? And what role will the Reform party play? 1634 01:17:15,880 --> 01:17:18,960 Speaker 19: Can I take the first part of things. It's like 1635 01:17:19,080 --> 01:17:25,400 Speaker 19: being on jeopardy. I think the turnout will be somewhere 1636 01:17:25,439 --> 01:17:29,160 Speaker 19: around about the thirty to forty percent. That's usually what 1637 01:17:29,280 --> 01:17:31,519 Speaker 19: it is for local elections. If it's much more than that, 1638 01:17:31,640 --> 01:17:35,559 Speaker 19: that shows a high interest. If it's not, then then 1639 01:17:35,600 --> 01:17:38,519 Speaker 19: it's part of the course. If it's below thirty, then 1640 01:17:38,760 --> 01:17:42,280 Speaker 19: no one's interested. How many are up it's about half 1641 01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:46,280 Speaker 19: of the various authorities, which a bit more than half, 1642 01:17:46,320 --> 01:17:52,000 Speaker 19: actually about two thirds. So it's quite important. And the 1643 01:17:52,280 --> 01:17:57,560 Speaker 19: kind of importance to look at is reform has traditionally, 1644 01:17:57,960 --> 01:17:59,519 Speaker 19: in so far as we can call it a tradition, 1645 01:17:59,800 --> 01:18:03,840 Speaker 19: not done well in council seats. It hasn't put many 1646 01:18:03,880 --> 01:18:08,240 Speaker 19: cabinet itself, and it doesn't have any kind of supporter 1647 01:18:08,400 --> 01:18:12,439 Speaker 19: base within council wards, but they are tipped to take 1648 01:18:12,560 --> 01:18:16,320 Speaker 19: quite a few seats. The interesting thing now is whose 1649 01:18:16,400 --> 01:18:18,720 Speaker 19: seats they will be taking, whether it will be the 1650 01:18:18,920 --> 01:18:22,280 Speaker 19: government's Labors or whether it will be the Conservatives. Now hitherto, 1651 01:18:22,680 --> 01:18:25,720 Speaker 19: of course they've always taken from the Conservatives, but it's 1652 01:18:25,880 --> 01:18:28,759 Speaker 19: increasingly likely that they're going to be taken from Labor. 1653 01:18:29,320 --> 01:18:32,040 Speaker 19: And the latest opinion poll pole I saw, which the 1654 01:18:32,160 --> 01:18:36,840 Speaker 19: MPR poll, which was reported in the Sun, suggested that 1655 01:18:36,920 --> 01:18:41,519 Speaker 19: at the next election, the Reformed UK would be left 1656 01:18:41,960 --> 01:18:46,400 Speaker 19: the largest party with one hundred and eighty seats and 1657 01:18:46,800 --> 01:18:49,320 Speaker 19: the Tories and Labor would have one hundred and sixty 1658 01:18:49,400 --> 01:18:53,360 Speaker 19: five each. Now that shows a genuine breakthrough, not a 1659 01:18:53,479 --> 01:18:57,960 Speaker 19: breakthrough in terms of getting you we've talked about this 1660 01:18:58,360 --> 01:19:02,519 Speaker 19: might you know, not a break through in that they're 1661 01:19:02,560 --> 01:19:07,799 Speaker 19: getting more a greater percentage share generally across the country. 1662 01:19:08,120 --> 01:19:12,800 Speaker 19: They still find it hard to get above thirty. But 1663 01:19:13,960 --> 01:19:16,839 Speaker 19: they're targeting labor seats in the north of the country 1664 01:19:17,120 --> 01:19:19,400 Speaker 19: where I am now, and that it looks like they're 1665 01:19:19,400 --> 01:19:20,400 Speaker 19: having some success. 1666 01:19:20,800 --> 01:19:24,280 Speaker 2: Okay, So once again another two part question. Do they 1667 01:19:24,439 --> 01:19:26,599 Speaker 2: head the depth if all of a sudden they find 1668 01:19:26,640 --> 01:19:28,599 Speaker 2: themselves with a whole bunch of counselors. Have they gone 1669 01:19:28,640 --> 01:19:30,760 Speaker 2: down the list far up and you don't end up 1670 01:19:30,760 --> 01:19:33,799 Speaker 2: with a bunch of weirdos too? Does that then propel 1671 01:19:33,880 --> 01:19:36,559 Speaker 2: them at national level to something big in twenty twenty nine? 1672 01:19:38,360 --> 01:19:41,920 Speaker 19: The first question is there will undoubtedly be within the 1673 01:19:42,040 --> 01:19:45,919 Speaker 19: next six weeks reports of genuine weirdos who've been elected 1674 01:19:46,400 --> 01:19:49,120 Speaker 19: because they still haven't quite got a grip on their 1675 01:19:49,160 --> 01:19:52,240 Speaker 19: selection procedures, and there will be people who were previously 1676 01:19:52,360 --> 01:19:57,400 Speaker 19: in fairly unpleasant organizations I would expect, I would guess. 1677 01:19:58,520 --> 01:20:02,080 Speaker 19: Does it propel them? It adds to the general sense 1678 01:20:02,160 --> 01:20:05,760 Speaker 19: that they're growing. I still have to be convinced that 1679 01:20:05,880 --> 01:20:11,120 Speaker 19: they can get more than thirty percent, which is what 1680 01:20:11,240 --> 01:20:13,960 Speaker 19: you need in Britain. You need about thirty four thirty 1681 01:20:14,000 --> 01:20:18,640 Speaker 19: five percent to within in action, and I still have 1682 01:20:18,840 --> 01:20:21,360 Speaker 19: my doubts that they will get there. But they are 1683 01:20:21,479 --> 01:20:22,799 Speaker 19: doing very very well. 1684 01:20:22,680 --> 01:20:23,280 Speaker 12: In the polls. 1685 01:20:23,560 --> 01:20:26,840 Speaker 2: Okay, since we last talked, and that decision from the 1686 01:20:27,000 --> 01:20:30,800 Speaker 2: highest court in the land over transgender how does that 1687 01:20:31,040 --> 01:20:34,240 Speaker 2: manifest itself or how has it manifested itself in those 1688 01:20:34,360 --> 01:20:36,880 Speaker 2: organizations that would need to do something about what they're doing. 1689 01:20:38,200 --> 01:20:40,840 Speaker 19: I don't think it has unsettled in one bit at 1690 01:20:40,880 --> 01:20:43,120 Speaker 19: the moment. And this is another thing, and it ties 1691 01:20:43,160 --> 01:20:45,280 Speaker 19: it to what we've just been talking about, you know, 1692 01:20:45,400 --> 01:20:47,479 Speaker 19: because if there is one thing all those red Wall 1693 01:20:47,600 --> 01:20:52,280 Speaker 19: voters don't like, it's all the ludicrous insanity of the 1694 01:20:52,360 --> 01:20:53,000 Speaker 19: woke stuff. 1695 01:20:53,160 --> 01:20:53,320 Speaker 14: You know. 1696 01:20:53,439 --> 01:20:57,120 Speaker 19: I don't mean getting on with each other nicely and 1697 01:20:57,160 --> 01:20:59,960 Speaker 19: all that kind of stuff. I just mean the insanity 1698 01:21:00,240 --> 01:21:03,479 Speaker 19: of it. And the question now is what does Labor 1699 01:21:03,600 --> 01:21:08,679 Speaker 19: do with all these institutions, beginning with the NHS, which 1700 01:21:08,880 --> 01:21:12,519 Speaker 19: have said we stand with transfer. Well, you can't, mate, 1701 01:21:12,880 --> 01:21:16,400 Speaker 19: because this is a Supreme Court decision. You're breaking the 1702 01:21:16,560 --> 01:21:19,519 Speaker 19: law if you don't allow women to have their own 1703 01:21:20,000 --> 01:21:23,760 Speaker 19: separate spaces, and by women we mean biological women. So 1704 01:21:24,320 --> 01:21:27,200 Speaker 19: I think a lot of people would be looking very 1705 01:21:27,320 --> 01:21:31,720 Speaker 19: closely at how Labor handles that because it could be 1706 01:21:31,840 --> 01:21:34,840 Speaker 19: a real big vote looser for them if they allow 1707 01:21:34,920 --> 01:21:39,240 Speaker 19: the left side of the party to dictate the fact 1708 01:21:39,280 --> 01:21:43,360 Speaker 19: that this Supreme Court decision doesn't mean anything at all effectively, all. 1709 01:21:43,320 --> 01:21:45,439 Speaker 2: Right, Mike, go, well, we'll catch up Thursday. I appreciate 1710 01:21:45,479 --> 01:21:47,639 Speaker 2: it Ron little out of Britain this morning seventeen away 1711 01:21:47,680 --> 01:21:50,880 Speaker 2: from nine, ask have we got business to customer orders 1712 01:21:50,960 --> 01:21:54,040 Speaker 2: for June? Going to the USDHL now saying we can't 1713 01:21:54,120 --> 01:21:56,799 Speaker 2: see them as over eight hundred dollars have to refund 1714 01:21:56,800 --> 01:21:58,400 Speaker 2: the orders and that's quite a big loss. See that's 1715 01:21:58,439 --> 01:22:01,639 Speaker 2: the sort of thing I'm talking about. Suddenly you can't 1716 01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:03,920 Speaker 2: do business, you can't get into the States, and how 1717 01:22:04,000 --> 01:22:05,920 Speaker 2: long does that continue? And how long is a piece 1718 01:22:05,960 --> 01:22:07,120 Speaker 2: of string? Seventeen to two. 1719 01:22:08,560 --> 01:22:12,960 Speaker 1: The like asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, howared 1720 01:22:13,000 --> 01:22:15,400 Speaker 1: by news Talks at BAH. 1721 01:22:15,479 --> 01:22:17,360 Speaker 2: You might want to watch the New Zealand market today 1722 01:22:17,600 --> 01:22:20,280 Speaker 2: if you've got time. Don't check you que you savor. 1723 01:22:20,280 --> 01:22:22,080 Speaker 2: It's all depressing at the moment, but the downs down 1724 01:22:22,120 --> 01:22:23,880 Speaker 2: nine hundred and seventy or two and a half percent, 1725 01:22:23,880 --> 01:22:25,479 Speaker 2: and the Nasdaq's down two and a half percent, of 1726 01:22:25,479 --> 01:22:28,000 Speaker 2: the SMP's down two point three six percent. So we'll 1727 01:22:28,080 --> 01:22:30,719 Speaker 2: feed off that dollars up a bit of your planning 1728 01:22:30,760 --> 01:22:33,200 Speaker 2: your holidays, or you are on holidays and you're overseas 1729 01:22:33,200 --> 01:22:34,840 Speaker 2: and you're suddenly going, oh jeez, I'm getting so much 1730 01:22:34,880 --> 01:22:36,960 Speaker 2: more for my money. I suppose that's the only upside 1731 01:22:37,000 --> 01:22:39,640 Speaker 2: of the fact that we don't like the US as 1732 01:22:39,680 --> 01:22:41,920 Speaker 2: much as we used to. So here's my weird power story. 1733 01:22:42,080 --> 01:22:43,880 Speaker 2: Just answer me this question if you know what the 1734 01:22:44,000 --> 01:22:45,760 Speaker 2: answer is. I tried it out with a couple of 1735 01:22:45,800 --> 01:22:47,519 Speaker 2: people around the office who pretend to know what the 1736 01:22:47,600 --> 01:22:49,080 Speaker 2: answer is, and they don't know what the answer is. 1737 01:22:49,160 --> 01:22:51,640 Speaker 2: So I don't like pretender people. Either you know the 1738 01:22:51,680 --> 01:22:53,479 Speaker 2: answer or you don't know the answer. So anyway, we 1739 01:22:53,600 --> 01:22:57,080 Speaker 2: lose power like everybody else. Ironically, we lost power yesterday 1740 01:22:57,479 --> 01:22:59,160 Speaker 2: not because of anything to do with the weather, but 1741 01:22:59,360 --> 01:23:02,519 Speaker 2: just because of, as it turned out, network equipment failure, 1742 01:23:02,600 --> 01:23:05,320 Speaker 2: which is obviously the company hadn't done their job properly 1743 01:23:05,360 --> 01:23:07,840 Speaker 2: and done the maintenance. Anyway, be that as it may. 1744 01:23:08,560 --> 01:23:12,800 Speaker 2: We won ourselves through points a free day's power, so 1745 01:23:12,920 --> 01:23:15,479 Speaker 2: this was tremendously exciting. We were going to go away 1746 01:23:15,520 --> 01:23:17,519 Speaker 2: on holiday, but we canceled that because we could be 1747 01:23:17,640 --> 01:23:20,040 Speaker 2: at home with our free power. We thought, why would 1748 01:23:20,120 --> 01:23:23,080 Speaker 2: we go to I don't know, tenerif when we can 1749 01:23:23,120 --> 01:23:24,760 Speaker 2: be at home with free powers. So we thought, we're 1750 01:23:24,760 --> 01:23:26,200 Speaker 2: going to stay at home with free powers. So this 1751 01:23:26,280 --> 01:23:28,320 Speaker 2: is going to be so exciting. Anyway, On the day 1752 01:23:28,360 --> 01:23:30,479 Speaker 2: that we were owed free power. Of course, the power 1753 01:23:30,479 --> 01:23:33,200 Speaker 2: went out, so we had no We were power free, 1754 01:23:33,280 --> 01:23:36,599 Speaker 2: not free powered. So the next day, a chatbot then 1755 01:23:36,720 --> 01:23:39,280 Speaker 2: inquires with us as to how our day of free 1756 01:23:39,360 --> 01:23:41,479 Speaker 2: power went, and of course, my wife, who's on these 1757 01:23:41,560 --> 01:23:46,360 Speaker 2: chatbot type networks with these people, says, we didn't have 1758 01:23:46,400 --> 01:23:48,880 Speaker 2: any power because the power was out. Chatbot had trouble 1759 01:23:48,920 --> 01:23:50,840 Speaker 2: dealing with that, but nevertheless, we think we might get 1760 01:23:50,840 --> 01:23:53,360 Speaker 2: another free day of power some other day. Here's my 1761 01:23:53,520 --> 01:23:57,680 Speaker 2: question in chatting to the chapbot. My understanding is chatbots 1762 01:23:57,800 --> 01:24:03,240 Speaker 2: are AI driven AI generate. AI invented things that replace humans, 1763 01:24:03,439 --> 01:24:07,640 Speaker 2: which allowed them to, to a degree anyway, communicate with 1764 01:24:07,760 --> 01:24:11,080 Speaker 2: you and ask answer basic questions. How is it that 1765 01:24:11,200 --> 01:24:14,400 Speaker 2: we ended up in a queue for a chatbot? So 1766 01:24:14,600 --> 01:24:16,320 Speaker 2: the chat bot, we were number four at one point, 1767 01:24:16,360 --> 01:24:18,519 Speaker 2: we're number four, then three, then two, then one, then 1768 01:24:18,560 --> 01:24:22,720 Speaker 2: we're onto the chatbot. I thought chatbots were there was 1769 01:24:22,800 --> 01:24:25,000 Speaker 2: no limit to the number of people a chatbot could 1770 01:24:25,000 --> 01:24:27,439 Speaker 2: deal with because it was AI generated, because it's not human, 1771 01:24:27,520 --> 01:24:30,479 Speaker 2: because it's not real. Why suddenly have we invented a 1772 01:24:30,560 --> 01:24:33,280 Speaker 2: queue for chatbots? How literally, if you know the answer 1773 01:24:33,360 --> 01:24:36,960 Speaker 2: to that, does that work? And is that a scam. 1774 01:24:38,080 --> 01:24:40,400 Speaker 2: Is there really a human behind that pretending to be 1775 01:24:40,439 --> 01:24:43,960 Speaker 2: a chatbot? Or is a chatbot limited and can only 1776 01:24:44,000 --> 01:24:46,280 Speaker 2: take x number? Therefore you need more chatbots. So in 1777 01:24:46,320 --> 01:24:49,000 Speaker 2: other words, it's not just a singular chatbot, it's a 1778 01:24:49,120 --> 01:24:52,280 Speaker 2: room full of chatbots that it replaced the roomful of humans. 1779 01:24:52,320 --> 01:24:55,280 Speaker 2: So there's multiple chatbots dealing with multiple people, and the 1780 01:24:55,360 --> 01:24:57,240 Speaker 2: chatbots can only do with three or four people at 1781 01:24:57,280 --> 01:25:00,760 Speaker 2: a time. Or does all of the sound just completely 1782 01:25:00,880 --> 01:25:04,880 Speaker 2: and utterly insane, And you wouldn't have the slightest idea, 1783 01:25:04,880 --> 01:25:06,360 Speaker 2: which is where I come from. It seemed to me, 1784 01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:08,479 Speaker 2: for the first time i'd thought about it, that a 1785 01:25:08,560 --> 01:25:10,200 Speaker 2: chat but should be able to deal with any number 1786 01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:11,960 Speaker 2: of people. There's no such thing. I thought cues were 1787 01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:15,360 Speaker 2: a thing of the past. Clearly I'm wrong. Let me know. 1788 01:25:15,560 --> 01:25:19,680 Speaker 1: Ten to nine, the Mike casking breakfast with Bailey's Real 1789 01:25:19,800 --> 01:25:20,800 Speaker 1: Estate news togs. 1790 01:25:20,800 --> 01:25:23,920 Speaker 2: They'd be religions prepare for their final bow.

When too many people are 1812 01:26:29,479 --> 01:26:32,519 Speaker 2: using the chatbot at once, especially on popular platforms during 1813 01:26:32,560 --> 01:26:35,599 Speaker 2: peak times, the system can't respond to everyone instantly. 1814 01:26:35,680 --> 01:26:36,000 Speaker 5: Why not? 1815 01:26:36,720 --> 01:26:39,760 Speaker 2: That's the whole point of AI, for God's sake, you 1816 01:26:39,840 --> 01:26:42,479 Speaker 2: can do it all at once. It's efficiency, So it 1817 01:26:42,600 --> 01:26:45,479 Speaker 2: places users in a queue, which is a digital waiting line. 1818 01:26:45,520 --> 01:26:48,000 Speaker 2: This helps manage serve a load, and as I suppose 1819 01:26:48,040 --> 01:26:50,000 Speaker 2: the size of the computer you can only deal with, 1820 01:26:50,120 --> 01:26:53,280 Speaker 2: you know your engine. Size basically ensures that responses stay 1821 01:26:53,360 --> 01:26:56,599 Speaker 2: fast and stable once you're in. Some platforms give priority 1822 01:26:56,680 --> 01:27:00,599 Speaker 2: to paying users, so free users may experience longer waits. 1823 01:27:00,640 --> 01:27:02,559 Speaker 2: Now that sounds like an excellent text from a person 1824 01:27:02,560 --> 01:27:05,160 Speaker 2: who knows what they're doing. Licensing, Mike is the answer. 1825 01:27:05,520 --> 01:27:09,519 Speaker 2: There's a limit how many concurrent conversations a bot will 1826 01:27:09,560 --> 01:27:11,479 Speaker 2: have been set by the vendor, So if you're buying 1827 01:27:11,520 --> 01:27:13,679 Speaker 2: it or releasing it off somebody, that'll set the number 1828 01:27:13,680 --> 01:27:17,840 Speaker 2: of bots. So that that does make sense sort of, Mike. 1829 01:27:17,960 --> 01:27:20,519 Speaker 2: Regarding the market, I truly feel the government should let 1830 01:27:20,560 --> 01:27:22,200 Speaker 2: people take out their KI we save and put that 1831 01:27:22,280 --> 01:27:24,679 Speaker 2: money into another saving scheme. I lost over forty thousand 1832 01:27:24,720 --> 01:27:27,360 Speaker 2: dollars in the last couple of months. Aaron, here's your 1833 01:27:27,360 --> 01:27:30,040 Speaker 2: problem with that? What are you putting it into bitcoin? 1834 01:27:30,400 --> 01:27:32,040 Speaker 2: And when you lose all of that, what are you 1835 01:27:32,080 --> 01:27:33,760 Speaker 2: going to do? Complain to the government and goable? I 1836 01:27:33,880 --> 01:27:35,479 Speaker 2: was saving now and not I mean part of what 1837 01:27:35,640 --> 01:27:38,640 Speaker 2: ki we sab was originally about was to solve our 1838 01:27:38,920 --> 01:27:43,200 Speaker 2: retirement problem. And long term consistent saving solves our long 1839 01:27:43,280 --> 01:27:45,400 Speaker 2: term retirement problem. It is a bit ugly at the moment, 1840 01:27:45,880 --> 01:27:47,920 Speaker 2: but it will be good. It's been good, it'll be 1841 01:27:48,000 --> 01:27:50,280 Speaker 2: good again.
