Speaker 2: let me know phone that straight through. Oh, eight hundred
Speaker 2: eighty to eighty nineteen nine two detect. If you have
Speaker 2: got some information, it would be great to hear from you.
Speaker 2: My phone box's not up there, you Denimo. So eighteenth
Speaker 2: that's the day I just try to work out with
Speaker 2: the data is eighteenth January February March. Nice day down here. Eighteenth.
Speaker 2: That'd be the temperature as well. By the way, sure,
Speaker 2: so get in touch if you want to be a
Speaker 2: part of the show. As I say, oh, eight hundred
Speaker 2: and eighty ten eighty. By the way, the farmer's shops
Speaker 2: don't know if you're cross this. They were without there.
Speaker 2: Well it's happening more often, isn't it. They are without
Speaker 2: their damn terminals today because of the whole situation with
Speaker 2: an outage. So you might want to say something about that.
Speaker 2: That's not gonna be the topic that I'm just mentioning it.
Speaker 2: I know we've got a fairly big cash only contingent
Speaker 2: out there. Farmers stores reduced to cash only operation due
Speaker 2: to cyber attack. They want to sound mean spirited, but
Speaker 2: who would cyber attack Farmers again on Saturday and the
Speaker 2: retailer unable to take electronic payments in store. The retailer's
Speaker 2: phone also appeared to be down, with their stores unable
Speaker 2: to take calls. Well, most people have given up calling
Speaker 2: retail shops, but you have that today, so that might
Speaker 2: have food for thought for some of you antie getting
Speaker 2: rid of money people. Customers have been frustrated by the disruption.
Speaker 2: One customer stelling telling Stuff she went to buy a
Speaker 2: juicer at a christ Extra on the weekend, but was
Speaker 2: told she could not redeem the gift voucher she had.
Speaker 2: I was told I couldn't use my voucher on the
Speaker 2: website was down, which was urgently been looked at. They
Speaker 2: told me they would contact me. She added that multiple
Speaker 2: attempts to contact Farmers had failed. As I heard from them.
Speaker 2: I tried to phone as I hadn't heard from I
Speaker 2: tried to phone Farmers. Every phone is engaged throughout christ
Speaker 2: Church and you can't hear anyone on their OW eight
Speaker 2: hundred number. There you go, there you go. I want
Speaker 2: to watch one of the Juicer for seems to be
Speaker 2: a funny time with the yeed of by juicen't it
Speaker 2: March Get in Touch? By name is Marcus HITDL twelve o'clock. Oh,
Speaker 2: by the way, now Easter not far away textually also
Speaker 2: on the school holidays as time, which actually I don't love.
Speaker 2: I don't love Easter coinciding with the school holidays. I'd
Speaker 2: rather have my holidays separate anyway. That's just me. But
Speaker 2: you know, there'll be all sorts of those ridiculous topics
Speaker 2: about Easter eggs, about the Cadbury ones, and they can't
Speaker 2: put two halves together. They've got the machines, so they've
Speaker 2: got to buy the Regina ones whatever they called ow
Speaker 2: the Rainbow and Fictionary ones. Of course to the Cadbury
Speaker 2: chocolate tasting so waxy, and of course chocolate prices through
Speaker 2: the roof, so Easter eggs are becoming more expensive. The
Speaker 2: price of a cream eg has raised thirty five percent
Speaker 2: in two years. They were a dollars seventy now they're
Speaker 2: two dollars thirty, So chocolate's up through the roof. However,
Speaker 2: I've always been of the peace of mind that the
Speaker 2: real New Zealand Easter egg is the humble Fijoa shaped
Speaker 2: like an egg, arrives as time of the year. So
Speaker 2: my question to you, right, and I'm genuinely curious about
Speaker 2: the answer to this one. Fijoas probably New Zealand's adopted
Speaker 2: national fruit, and it seems to be the fruit in
Speaker 2: New Zealand that drives the most passion. With Facebook pages
Speaker 2: dedicated to fijoas and WhatsApp groups and Instagram accounts and
Speaker 2: TikTok account it's all about the Fijar. People love them,
Speaker 2: and people love them in such a way that they
Speaker 2: think that there's special love for the Fijara is unique.
Speaker 2: That they can love it in a way that no
Speaker 2: one else can love it. It's quite it's like the
Speaker 2: love of a child. So we are in Fijo a season.
Speaker 2: But I have one question for you about the fijoas
Speaker 2: because it's a fruit, it's extremely polarizing and I've never
Speaker 2: quite worked out why. So the question I want to
Speaker 2: ask you because I love them, I et a bucket
Speaker 2: of them. They let another bucket, they have a third bucket.
Speaker 2: But the question I have for you Fijo a people
Speaker 2: or people have used the other art Fijoa people, is
Speaker 2: you people that hate them?
Speaker 3: Why is that?
Speaker 2: What about the taste that you find so disappointing? That's
Speaker 2: not a question I've always wondered that. Have you never
Speaker 2: actually tried them? Or what would cause you to hate
Speaker 2: them so much? Because just like people love them and
Speaker 2: adore them, at the other side of the corner are
Speaker 2: people that have a very strong negative reaction to them.
Speaker 2: Could someone try and articulate that in words for me,
Speaker 2: and preferably now oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty
Speaker 2: nine nine, Why do you hate them so much? I
Speaker 2: know some people are super taste is they don't like coriander?
Speaker 2: Is that why you hate fijoas? Is it that kind
Speaker 2: of factor, the coriander factor? Did you have a bad
Speaker 2: experience with one other child? What is it? I've often
Speaker 2: wondered about this. You fijo a haters? Now's your chance, Marcus.
Speaker 2: The reason I hate fijoas is dot dot dot dot.
Speaker 2: By the way, state hurry three close since one fifty
Speaker 2: this afternoon, No detoo is due to an accident. Thank
Speaker 2: you for the intel about that. So it's blocked between
Speaker 2: Waiter and Illinois North Tallanaki since two pm. So, yes,
Speaker 2: are you a super taste to why do you hate them?
Speaker 2: That's my question for you tonight thirteen past eight, Andy,
Speaker 2: it's Marcus. Welcome.
Speaker 4: We'll get a Marcus head.
Speaker 2: Are you good good?
Speaker 4: I moved here from the other side of the ditch
Speaker 4: or twenty five years ago, and I remember everyone talking
Speaker 4: about fijos and how they were the most amazing thing
Speaker 4: in the world, and I couldn't wait to try one.
Speaker 4: And when I tried it, I think the reason I
Speaker 4: didn't like it was the real gritty sort of texture
Speaker 4: about it. But now twenty five years on, I look
Speaker 4: forward to Fijo's season more than any other fruit ever.
Speaker 2: So the seeds must have reminded you of something, or
Speaker 2: there must have been that grittiness you didn't like. Maybe
Speaker 2: you're eating it wrong way the first time.
Speaker 5: Ey.
Speaker 6: Yeah, well I.
Speaker 4: Still get their little grittiness, but it doesn't worry me now.
Speaker 4: I love them. I think they're the most amazing things.
Speaker 7: Ever.
Speaker 2: It's like the grip, the oyster andy, thank you, Jane,
Speaker 2: AND's Marcus. Why do you hate them?
Speaker 8: I don't know that I hate them so much. It's
Speaker 8: just it's a very persume, gritty chase. I don't know
Speaker 8: how to explain it. It's just it's I don't know.
Speaker 8: It's like that coriander situation. So I don't love coriander.
Speaker 2: It tastes more like something you'd wash your face with.
Speaker 2: Is that what you're saying.
Speaker 8: Yeah, it tastes very like it's such a strong flavor,
Speaker 8: like a persume, And I just, yeah, I just can't
Speaker 8: do it. So you them, but you cannot, I can't.
Speaker 2: You tried one once and hate it, and now when
Speaker 2: you smell them or other people are eating them, it
Speaker 2: gives you a wobbly feeling. Is that the way it
Speaker 2: works for you.
Speaker 8: No, not at all. Like I love to smell them,
Speaker 8: I like I love to smell them. It's just the taste.
Speaker 8: It's just something about the fragrance of them that I
Speaker 8: can't I can't stomach. I just can't do it. It's
Speaker 8: also quite a sandy texture.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I met a politician once at the airport and she
Speaker 2: said to me she couldn't stand them because of the
Speaker 2: perfume taste. So that seems to be what people come
Speaker 2: back to, is that perfume may Yeah.
Speaker 10: I don't know what.
Speaker 8: I don't know how to explain it. It's just yeah,
Speaker 8: it's just like.
Speaker 2: Brilliant. Thank you for that, m J.
Speaker 11: Marcus welcome, Hi Marcus, how are you darling?
Speaker 2: Good? Thank you MJ. Nice to hear from you.
Speaker 12: Good.
Speaker 13: Yeah, Oh my goodness. Can I just say, in the
Speaker 13: early nineties you came to KPMG and you're an m
Speaker 13: C and we had eye contacts and I've never forgotten it.
Speaker 2: Really Yeah, yeah, that was.
Speaker 13: I had the biggest crush on you for so.
Speaker 2: I do remember.
Speaker 7: I do remember that.
Speaker 2: I do remember that night. Was it like a quiz
Speaker 2: night or something or was.
Speaker 11: It a yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 13: You probably had a crush on me all this time too.
Speaker 13: We are actually Facebook friends, you know.
Speaker 5: Wow, don't worry about that.
Speaker 2: This is a lot to This is a lot to do.
Speaker 2: And I'm thinking it probably is the late nineties, not
Speaker 2: the early nineties? Am I right?
Speaker 8: It might have been?
Speaker 13: Actually, yes, it would have been the late nineties, Yes,
Speaker 13: of course it was. Yes, it was just before the millennium.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you'd be all you'd be all busy doing Y
Speaker 2: two K, wouldn't you looking for a break from the
Speaker 2: old y two K?
Speaker 13: Well, I was in I was in recruitment, so I
Speaker 13: didn't really give a ship.
Speaker 7: You know, it will all go.
Speaker 2: Down, So was I by the sounds of things?
Speaker 13: Anyway, it's too rude anyway, Yes, hate them.
Speaker 10: I don't know.
Speaker 13: Actually do they make you that's because we're on that
Speaker 13: rude topic. I wonder if they make you taste a
Speaker 13: second way? Not sure, but I personally love them fresh,
Speaker 13: don't mind than fresh lovely. I do get that when
Speaker 13: I think about it, I get that kind of funny,
Speaker 13: tingly feeling of like if you're gonna have exies, like
Speaker 13: like like a lemon that we're filling. But did your wine?
Speaker 10: No?
Speaker 12: Yeat?
Speaker 10: Yeah?
Speaker 2: So you hate them.
Speaker 13: I don't. I will eat them fresh, okay, as long
Speaker 13: as I don't get the spoon too close to the skins.
Speaker 13: If the spoon goes too close to the skin, then
Speaker 13: you get that whole thing.
Speaker 14: I like to just go in the middle, not too.
Speaker 15: Close to the edge.
Speaker 2: Brilliant. Nice to hear it. Nice to rehear from your MJ.
Speaker 2: By the way, I am passionate about the fruit, but
Speaker 2: I will always say that I'll never just chop them
Speaker 2: and use a spoon. I'd always peel them, and that's
Speaker 2: a weird thing to do. I'll cut the ends off
Speaker 2: and peel the fijoa. I will take the skin off
Speaker 2: like staves off a barrel. It's probably six cuts, eight
Speaker 2: cuts with the ends. Find that way better. So that's
Speaker 2: me the spoon. Yeah, you do get the bitterness towards
Speaker 2: the end. Lizzie Marcus welcome.
Speaker 11: Yeah, Hi, it's here. How are you?
Speaker 16: Yeah?
Speaker 11: I really honestly can't stand for jars for some reason.
Speaker 7: Fruit.
Speaker 11: I love free. You know, I've got quite a sweet teeth,
Speaker 11: but every time I try the fee jars, they just
Speaker 11: really bitter and reap. The texture too, is a weab it. Gridley,
Speaker 11: I feel my opinion, I can.
Speaker 2: Understand the perfume. I've never thought that the texture was
Speaker 2: overly grainy.
Speaker 11: Yeah, it's just it's just I can't describe it. It's
Speaker 11: just to me, it just feels like, oh, I can't
Speaker 11: wait to get it out of my down my throat quickly.
Speaker 2: So will you still come? Will you still come across
Speaker 2: it and have an accidental encounter like something, It'll be
Speaker 2: in a freak sound or something you think, oh my god,
Speaker 2: it's okay.
Speaker 5: Wow.
Speaker 11: Yeah, I've had to have it. Also when I when
Speaker 11: I go to my friends, you always make figura. You
Speaker 11: know that apple pie will make pie.
Speaker 16: Wow?
Speaker 2: I love that. That sounds great.
Speaker 11: Yes, but then I take a little weed peace just
Speaker 11: to be polite and put it up with ice cream
Speaker 11: or something. But yeah, I know. I do have all
Speaker 11: the other fruit though, but I just don't like FiOS
Speaker 11: or watermelons.
Speaker 2: Maybe you're a super taster because sometimes I think some
Speaker 2: with some people like how are you with cucumber?
Speaker 17: Oh?
Speaker 11: I hate cucumber. That's another thing I can't stand it.
Speaker 2: You might be a super taste because I think the
Speaker 2: super tastes when people eat watermelon, it tastes.
Speaker 11: Like, oh, it just tastes like, yeah, nothing, it's just
Speaker 11: all water and it's revolting.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, So would that be the most unpleasant taste
Speaker 2: you've come across? Would be the fijoa?
Speaker 11: Yeah? Yeah, it would be the figure And we used
Speaker 11: to have trees when we were children. My parents had
Speaker 11: lots of fijoa and passion fruit trees, and I'd always
Speaker 11: take the passion fruits. And yet my whole other, my
Speaker 11: two brothers, and my mom and dad always were happy
Speaker 11: with the feature.
Speaker 2: What do you What do you like with grapefruit?
Speaker 18: Oh?
Speaker 11: No, I don't like grapefood either, even the ones in
Speaker 11: California the way too.
Speaker 2: Fisher wonder if you're a super taster.
Speaker 11: Yeah, it could be, but I love coriander.
Speaker 2: Do you what about broccoli and kale?
Speaker 6: Oh?
Speaker 11: I don't like kale. I'm okay with rock creek. Okay,
Speaker 11: kales too, wrinkley were hard or I don't know, it's
Speaker 11: just yeah.
Speaker 2: I had a funny kale stree once I got a
Speaker 2: juicer and I juiced like buckets of kale, and it
Speaker 2: gave no juice. Couldn't work that out, Never have. Twenty
Speaker 2: five past eight Johnny Marcus, welcome, Oh.
Speaker 19: You we've just started to click the features and a
Speaker 19: few of them are starting to drop. The flavor and
Speaker 19: aromatic compounds are they determined also by how they're grown
Speaker 19: and what conditions they're grown under, So like if they're
Speaker 19: grown under plastic in a tunnel house, they have a
Speaker 19: different flavor than once they're grown outside. And generally New
Speaker 19: Zealand everything's sort of grown out outside of the Bay
Speaker 19: of Plenty where I live. But yeah, the what they
Speaker 19: call the herbaceous aromas, Sorry about that, the flavors that
Speaker 19: the actual chemicals, you know, the alcohols in them, is
Speaker 19: the aromatic profile of all the peels and everything is
Speaker 19: what makes something smell the way it does. And some
Speaker 19: people have a real distaste for grapefruit and feedure and
Speaker 19: that there are you know, effects that can make it
Speaker 19: feel almost nauseated. So it doesn't affect me at all.
Speaker 19: But it's just quite an interesting thing that the flesh
Speaker 19: and the peel has a really distinct flavor.
Speaker 2: It seems that the smell separate from the taste. But
Speaker 2: it's the smell that freaks people out right.
Speaker 19: Yeah, yeah, they call them ester compounds, right, and and
Speaker 19: you might have might have heard of a few of
Speaker 19: those things, but most of us wouldn't know, but we
Speaker 19: come across them like an industry. So there are certain
Speaker 19: jobs where you will smell something that smells like really
Speaker 19: really strong feature again and here at Mount Long and
Speaker 19: you like, there's a number of factories I've done working
Speaker 19: here and there, and you'll smell things like from the
Speaker 19: the pine plant where they may call the shampoos, the
Speaker 19: suffectants and the surfactants, like all of those are made
Speaker 19: in this massive condensing towel and they've got a processing
Speaker 19: plant and the waste that comes out of the pine
Speaker 19: it's really really strong. So all the trees that can't
Speaker 19: be exported to end up you know, in the process
Speaker 19: and made into surfactants and suffectants. Which is your washing
Speaker 19: carder and your your sunlike and your shampoos and any
Speaker 19: of us.
Speaker 2: Yep, nice to talk Johnny, Thanks so much for twenty
Speaker 2: seven past eight. We're looking for people that are really
Speaker 2: strongly opposed to FIJO is like they get freaked out
Speaker 2: by them. They mightn't be allergic to them. Such a
Speaker 2: polarizing thread. I've got tremendous texts from a lot of
Speaker 2: people here and that's great, as I should have on
Speaker 2: a big topic like this, but I'm just curious to
Speaker 2: know why people really do get freaked out by them.
Speaker 2: You might have something to say about that. Eight hundred
Speaker 2: and eighty ten eighty. The fijo is why they say,
Speaker 2: how are you polarized by them? A lot of people too,
Speaker 2: so we're actually sort of doing a bit of a
Speaker 2: side pivot onto polarizing fruit. A lot of people can't
Speaker 2: stand rock melon, and I guess that might be quite
Speaker 2: sort of that perfumed erometic smell as well, also with
Speaker 2: kind of freaky skin. I mean a lot of people
Speaker 2: in my life, but I've never met anyone that enjoys
Speaker 2: a rock melon skin. Anyway, get in touch, Marcus till
Speaker 2: twelve plan, it's Marcus. Good evening.
Speaker 6: You're welcome, Marcus. Yes, I'm another one of these people
Speaker 6: who can't stand the smell of fijos. They can't. It's
Speaker 6: kind of rip Helen.
Speaker 2: Well, people are strong on this, and I'm trying to
Speaker 2: think what my people saying via the tics. It's like
Speaker 2: sweet vomit.
Speaker 6: Well, it's like a really cheap persume. But I'm ament
Speaker 6: many years since I've actually eaten one. I'm actually prepared
Speaker 6: to give them another time.
Speaker 2: I don't think Helen saved them for us. I don't
Speaker 2: think they've changed.
Speaker 6: Yeah, well maybe I have, but I thought you might
Speaker 6: be interested to know that they. I did come across
Speaker 6: a pi a liqueur, which I actually really enjoyed. I
Speaker 6: don't they still make it, but yeah, and I didn't
Speaker 6: have any problems without. I think it's this perfume thing
Speaker 6: about them.
Speaker 2: And where did you come across the figure? It's a
Speaker 2: strange thing to come across.
Speaker 6: I can't remember, but I was surprised when that previous
Speaker 6: caller described as bicker. And my memory of the Fijo
Speaker 6: was really sickly sweet. So individuals I.
Speaker 5: Know, Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't necessarily know. I'd say sickly because they've got
Speaker 2: a tartness to them, haven't they. Would you eat a
Speaker 2: rock melon?
Speaker 6: I love that rock melon?
Speaker 2: Yep, I don't like watermelon? Note really well, no, I.
Speaker 11: Don't like that.
Speaker 6: Don't like grapefruit.
Speaker 2: One of yours? Did you like a cucumber?
Speaker 4: Yes?
Speaker 2: Because I like coriander. Okay, okay, because I think super tastes.
Speaker 2: They think cucumbers taste like coriander or so anyway, I
Speaker 2: can't quite remember what supertastes. Maybe something that can call
Speaker 2: us it's a super tastey Helen, Thank you got caught
Speaker 2: standing fijo's. Cop took me home to Mum. Not good.
Speaker 2: I can't believe how many people don't like fijoas I
Speaker 2: thought I was alone in that. The smell, the taste
Speaker 2: of the feel in my mouth, uh gag. Friends would
Speaker 2: share them from the heges, but I couldn't eat them.
Speaker 2: Can't eat rockmelon either, kate the feel in my mouth?
Speaker 2: Where did fijo's originally come from? They seem to be
Speaker 2: everywhere and us in like a weed. My mum was
Speaker 2: a great bottle of preserver. Fijoas like plums for me.
Speaker 2: I ate in so many different forms. I can't stand
Speaker 2: them now the way we are. Eat one just to check.
Speaker 2: My daughter loves that. We planted a couple of trees
Speaker 2: in our farm for her as she is in Tasmania.
Speaker 2: I feed them to one of our goats that loves them,
Speaker 2: if y. I check out the deep fried fijo at
Speaker 2: dessert at Forest Restaurant, Auckland. Amazing wow, very dry and
Speaker 2: blockhouse by the summer. Fijoas a very small and hard
Speaker 2: and edible that they might also have a I think
Speaker 2: they also might have some sort of a infection too.
Speaker 2: I didn't see the old man, and he's got good fijos,
Speaker 2: but his crop work that good this year, he said,
Speaker 2: there's some I forget what the discussion went. Lovely fruit,
Speaker 2: usually muffins, ice cream, you name it. Cricket's still going hellpfully.
Speaker 2: They turned up the wireless to drown them out. Neighbors
Speaker 2: bang on the walls. Wish it snowed here, that'd sort
Speaker 2: them out. Fijo and jelly, that'll convert the haters. Cape
Speaker 2: gooseberry is another good one. Havevery nice evening, love a
Speaker 2: cape gooseberry, Marcus. I just like Fijo's cleared a schoolmate
Speaker 2: with a tree.
Speaker 12: At home.
Speaker 2: We used to throw them at each other like army grenades.
Speaker 2: And the smell of that makes me gag now because
Speaker 2: I could remember the smell fermenting on my clothes, Marcus.
Speaker 2: Not all fijo as are created equal. Those of our
Speaker 2: tree are silky smooth. Katie, not a fan of fijo,
Speaker 2: has had six big bushes down our drivers again. Autumn
Speaker 2: was a season of break up rotten for joas was
Speaker 2: the smell then now I'm taken back whatever, Marcus. I
Speaker 2: didn't like fijo's when I was young. They were fijo
Speaker 2: trees growing out something better, and when no one picked them,
Speaker 2: they would fall on the ground rot and all I
Speaker 2: remember is the smell of rotting fruit. I've tried you,
Speaker 2: though I don't know the taste, as smell is not
Speaker 2: pleasant all. On the other hand, I love a slab
Speaker 2: of dirry and in the morning off the tree, Peter
Speaker 2: from Levine, Marcus. I love and grow figo as the
Speaker 2: rest of the family think they taste like soap. And
Speaker 2: someone said, just from the farmer's juicer, woman, lots of
Speaker 2: fruit is ready for harvesting this time of the year,
Speaker 2: so a juicer is a really good thing to buy.
Speaker 18: Here.
Speaker 2: There's juices and juices. Juices are fun until you've got
Speaker 2: to wash them all those parts. Marcus. Just a question
Speaker 2: on super tastes. So far all the fijoa haters have
Speaker 2: been female. Yeah, Guava moth, Marcus. Guave moth can affect
Speaker 2: the figo is really hard to get rid of, Marcus.
Speaker 2: I used to make a beautiful fijo a kombucha out
Speaker 2: of nothing but the skins and a pack of brewis yeast.
Speaker 2: I feel that's the first time on hear I've said
Speaker 2: kom butcher, and I made a bit of a heck
Speaker 2: of it, I said Gombucher. It was too late. Greetings, welcome.
Speaker 2: Oh wait, By the way, JFK files are released tomorrow.
Speaker 2: Someone's saying there's more than one shooter. By the way,
Speaker 2: the when the eestronat's landing down at am tomorrow morning,

Speaker 2: UK that tastes like fijoas I used to eat as
Speaker 2: a child. Now I hate fijoas it's a bit like
Speaker 2: me and strawberries. He used to be a worming tablet
Speaker 2: that tastes like strawberries. Does anyone have that as a child?
Speaker 2: I think it was called Pripson. Anyone else remember that.
Speaker 2: I don't think I was a particularly wormy child, but
Speaker 2: didn't taste good. Pripson. I could write a poem on that.
Speaker 2: I could write a rap on Pripson not very good
Speaker 2: at all. Oh worms did the job. Marcus once made fijo,
Speaker 2: a chili chutney repopular grape with roast meat chairs bears. Marcus,
Speaker 2: I'm thirty four and I've never tried a fid am.
Speaker 2: I missing out? Or is it not worth trying one?
Speaker 2: I gotta try one. Cheapest creepers, you gotta try one.
Speaker 2: I don't even think. I don't even know what else
Speaker 2: to say about that. Pronounce it fey hoa. You might
Speaker 2: like them better. That's how Colombians pronounce it. Their native fruit.
Speaker 2: Come on, they are tasty, start tart and tasty when
Speaker 2: they ripe and cut like guava. Che checks Jackson. I
Speaker 2: think you've misunderstood me. I've always been a huge fan.
Speaker 2: I was just asking for people could tell me why
Speaker 2: it's such a polarizing fruit, what they don't like about them,
Speaker 2: the old feyha. I don't know if probably are delicious.
Speaker 2: Sometimes you go to one of these Si Shi gelato.
Speaker 2: One's into gelato now, anyone loves you Aul gelato, all
Speaker 2: gelato and some great flavors. But I've never seen a
Speaker 2: great fijo a gelato, because to me would lend itself
Speaker 2: extremely well to that have a lemon and cucumber gelato
Speaker 2: not so long ago. And I don't want to be
Speaker 2: a gelato boar if I've already become a gelado boar. Actually,
Speaker 2: just ditch the last three minutes of me talking, because
Speaker 2: I've come across the sue. I don't want you want
Speaker 2: to be This is fascinating. I love hearing how something
Speaker 2: tastes to others and comparing to how it tastes to
Speaker 2: me and your chef. To try one, you'll probably love it. Kate, Now,
Speaker 2: who are they talking? I've tried one, I've tried more
Speaker 2: than one. I'm those super taster. Well maybe i am,
Speaker 2: so we are talking about fijo's. I just want people
Speaker 2: to describe people that have a very strong negative reaction
Speaker 2: to them. Why is that? What does the taste taste like?
Speaker 2: It's a hard thing to describe, isn't it? A couple
Speaker 2: of things happening. The people from the rocket will arrive
Speaker 2: tomorrow SpaceX, SpaceX, Dragon, Sanita and Butch and nine others
Speaker 2: will attended to Earth aboard the SpaceX Dragon spacecraft. That's
Speaker 2: happening tomorrow, the land tomorrow. Also tomorrow, the JFK files
Speaker 2: will be released, although I think a lot of them
Speaker 2: have been destroyed and there's going to be a lot
Speaker 2: of files, so people are I think there are experts
Speaker 2: that will know where to go and lock. So I'm
Speaker 2: not quite sure when we'll have the gotchas. So there's
Speaker 2: eighty thousand pages, big book, isn't it. It's like eighty
Speaker 2: war and pieces. While we're here, I thought it'd be
Speaker 2: appropriate we are to borrow announcing giving all of the
Speaker 2: Kennedy files. So people have been waiting for decades, fortith
Speaker 2: and straight by people, lots of different people. Tulsi gabba
Speaker 2: that they must be released tomorrow. You've got on a reading.
Speaker 2: I don't believe we're going to redect anything. I said.
Speaker 2: Just don't react to redect. You can't redact. He described
Speaker 2: as interesting. He said he has heard about them, and
Speaker 2: who asked if he'd seen what's in the files, he edited,
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna I'm not doing summaries. You're right your
Speaker 2: own summary. So it's all about CIA involvement. I suppose
Speaker 2: get in touch if you want to talk eight hundred
Speaker 2: and eighty today, d N it's Marcus welcome.
Speaker 12: Yeah, you know.
Speaker 20: Marks how you do it?
Speaker 2: Good thing.
Speaker 20: Hey, it's a funny. People who generally like the Joe's
Speaker 20: tend to sit down and eat like a dozen of
Speaker 20: them at a time, I think, which is quite different
Speaker 20: compared to any of the every day like you don't
Speaker 20: generally sit down and eat like six beats equivalent, I guess,
Speaker 20: in a row. But that's how I always, you know,
Speaker 20: I really, I really enjoy.
Speaker 2: Because you don't and you don't it's almost like, yeah,
Speaker 2: it's weird a.
Speaker 20: Yeah, yeah, A funny story. When we were kids, we'd
Speaker 20: cut would cut a bowl of feos in half and
Speaker 20: and then we'd have an eating competition. You'd line them
Speaker 20: up across the mantel piece, and it was the one
Speaker 20: that got to the end, you know, So it was
Speaker 20: like a half you'd line all the halves up as
Speaker 20: you go as you're eating them, and it was the
Speaker 20: first time to get to the end was the winners.
Speaker 20: But yeah, it's yeah, and I.
Speaker 2: Guess you had no shortage of them, Dean. You would
Speaker 2: add trees for.
Speaker 5: Them, right oh yeah yeah, yeah, yeah always yeah.
Speaker 20: But anyway, I just thought I mentioned that it's it's
Speaker 20: kind of different than other fruit.
Speaker 2: You wouldn't be that you wouldn't do that with the
Speaker 2: other fruit.
Speaker 15: No, I don't think you do.
Speaker 20: You know, the man would pull you up, so but generally, yeah,
Speaker 20: I don't know. Maybe we just like to crop out
Speaker 20: on them. But I think that's pretty much everybody that
Speaker 20: he likes the PJ you tack on a dozen at
Speaker 20: a time.
Speaker 2: Let's hear from you. Thanks, Jean Brett Marcus welcome.
Speaker 9: Yeah, so you mentioned that K documents again released and
Speaker 9: I listened to an audiobook on a long flight one
Speaker 9: time and it was by an Australian lawyer who he
Speaker 9: reckonly he worked his whole career to be the perfect
Speaker 9: guy to poor apart the intrigue with the whole situation
Speaker 9: and really enjoyed it. His his conclusion was definitely a
Speaker 9: shooter Oswald, but it wasn't in his view. It was
Speaker 9: unlikely that Oswald actually killed JFK, but it was actually
Speaker 9: his close protection detail, and there was the response that
Speaker 9: they took to the shopping fired and that one of
Speaker 9: his own close protection guys actually had a like an
Speaker 9: accidental discharge and shot JAF came ahead and there was
Speaker 9: a there's a few threads here. One of them was
Speaker 9: like there was this specific type of firearm it might
Speaker 9: have been an ARfD and or or something like that
Speaker 9: that they were using for a short period of time
Speaker 9: and then short and then immediately afterwards they just got
Speaker 9: rid of them all and they did a really detailed
Speaker 9: clean of both all the cars straight away, which obviously
Speaker 9: destroyed all the evidence. And so why would you why
Speaker 9: would you do that? And in this in this Australian
Speaker 9: lawyer's view, it was just a cover up. They were
Speaker 9: trying to save the career of this this PLOS protention
Speaker 9: officer and just sort of trying and threave it under
Speaker 9: the carpet, which, yeah, I know, I thought it was interesting.
Speaker 9: But potentially we're going to find out.
Speaker 2: And I don't even know the timeline for that. I
Speaker 2: don't know how long it will take for them to
Speaker 2: read it all and cut. I guess the people that
Speaker 2: spend their whole life studying it, we'll know the right
Speaker 2: kind of pages to go to. I'm fascinated.
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's it's just like top rate intrigue, isn't it.
Speaker 9: Like there's so many factors and threads and I know.
Speaker 9: I guess it's like real life, isn't it. Sometimes there's
Speaker 9: just things are just truly mysterious and it's uncommon, but
Speaker 9: it can happen.
Speaker 2: Maybe I'll talk again tomorrow, Brett. Thank you for that. Colin.
Speaker 2: It's Marcus.
Speaker 15: Good evening, Yeah, good out here you going Marke and quickly,
Speaker 15: I know the news is coming up. Listen to fijos.
Speaker 7: This is what I do.
Speaker 15: I get a nice sized fijo, cut them in half,
Speaker 15: get a teaspoon, take it, scoop it out so that
Speaker 15: it's in the pool. Put them in a pan, some
Speaker 15: brown sugar and a little bit of cinnamon. Stew them
Speaker 15: and when they're nicely stewed, get them out and have
Speaker 15: them with plain ice cream or hokey pokey ice cream
Speaker 15: and yum yum yum.
Speaker 21: Wow wow.
Speaker 2: Well are you growing your own?
Speaker 7: No?
Speaker 15: No, we were in a village, and but I've got
Speaker 15: access to some that I get.
Speaker 2: You got you've got a dealer, Have you got contacts?
Speaker 15: Family? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Go, well, kind of nice to talk to you.
Speaker 16: Thank you.
Speaker 2: Just coming up to nine. I've got my name as
Speaker 2: Marcus Head. On Midnight eight hundred and eighty, did Daddy
Speaker 2: fijoas and JFK. That's what it's all about. All happens tomorrow,
Speaker 2: the files. I think this is just announce of going
Speaker 2: to be released. Marcus, Fijoas tastes like soap, disgusting. Try
Speaker 2: fresh figs, they are delectable, cheered Dianne. I think most
Speaker 2: of us have tried fresh figs. Most of us have
Speaker 2: the ability to like a number of different fruits. Try
Speaker 2: fresh figs. Goodness me edlind not manim As. Marcus, welcome
Speaker 2: Fijoas and the Fijoa haters giving you a chance. Two
Speaker 2: topics that probably don't naturally go together, the Jay of
Speaker 2: k assassination and Fijoas. I think there's a lot of
Speaker 2: intrigue about the document dump tomorrow because they withheld the
Speaker 2: documents last time. No one quite knows why, and I
Speaker 2: think probably both Joe Biden and Trump have refused to
Speaker 2: release them, but now they are going to or now
Speaker 2: by now Trump is going to Marcus, I brewed forty
Speaker 2: pounds of fijaas with ten pounds of black grapes, beautiful
Speaker 2: nol napier. Yes, Marcus JFK to use the etcenator ex
Speaker 2: Vietnam War pilot's own works must be words. JFK was
Speaker 2: quote intervention RFK and Teddy building a legacy and talking
Speaker 2: to Russia. I put my money on the Shooter bean
Speaker 2: in the storm water Drain, like was said on the
Speaker 2: documentary Everything's a rich man's trick. You are cracking me up.
Speaker 2: Eating six fijos is not weird. It's a volume thing.
Speaker 2: You eat six large strawberries or fifteen blueberries, or less
Speaker 2: than one watermelon. Four fijos is one banana. I think
Speaker 2: people don't eat six. People eat, sit down and eat
Speaker 2: buckets of them until they're all gone. Pretty much is
Speaker 2: how it goes. Until a couple of years ago. I
Speaker 2: thought fijo has tasted like guavas steeped in kerosene. But
Speaker 2: something's changed to make me quite like them. It must
Speaker 2: be me, not them. Lyle christ Church, Oh eight hundred
Speaker 2: and eighty eight out if you want to talk, And
Speaker 2: why do you hate them?
Speaker 22: So?
Speaker 2: Why do people hate for you? What is it about
Speaker 2: the taste that you hate so much? It must seem
Speaker 2: like something you're not supposed to eat. That seems to
Speaker 2: be what people's reactions are this day and history. In
Speaker 2: nineteen sixty five, Soviet cosmonaut Alexei Leonov, after passing through
Speaker 2: an airlock on the spacecraft Vuctu two, became the first
Speaker 2: man to walk in space sixty years ago. And also
Speaker 2: to the trouble with Farmers, there've been victims of a hack,
Speaker 2: a cyber attack. So one woman couldn't get a blender.
Speaker 2: Cash only always have cash, that's what people say. I
Speaker 2: think farmers proved that to be mind you you could
Speaker 2: wait another day till you got your blender. Kuldn't you.
Speaker 2: There's trouble and Nelson with their runway residents don't want
Speaker 2: the extension. No surprises there. I think people have been
Speaker 2: protesting about airports and runways three short after Orbal and
Speaker 2: wolver invented flight. They seem to go hand in hand.
Speaker 2: Maria's Marcus welcome, good evening, Good.
Speaker 22: Evening, Marcus, Mary from the North Island. I had two
Speaker 22: neighbors with the tree. Each of the figures, one at
Speaker 22: my front fence and one at my back fence, just
Speaker 22: drops over into my dad and I cut them up
Speaker 22: in half, stoop out the fruit and put them in
Speaker 22: easy settle bags and froize them for later years. Now
Speaker 22: what I do I make fiedo and apple cake. Banana
Speaker 22: and fijo of cakes, and I can stew the figos
Speaker 22: and gingers together which is lovely with their ice cream.
Speaker 22: Also make fijo a jam up here where I live,
Speaker 22: and it's and I can buy fijo and lollies up
Speaker 22: here at the local dairy, and my family and Australia
Speaker 22: always will remind me bring them over my cabin bag
Speaker 22: and I have no trouble but bringing them into Australia
Speaker 22: and the other fijo are sweet and they cost me
Speaker 22: about twenty dollars and it's I think about four or
Speaker 22: five pilo box. And in their local supermarkets, I don't
Speaker 22: know about where you are down in the South Island,
Speaker 22: but in their local supermarkets we can buy the fijo
Speaker 22: a juice and the soup market chillers and it's just lovely.
Speaker 22: And they coming three different soos bottles. So that's what
Speaker 22: I wanted to tell you.
Speaker 2: And how is the season this year, Maria? Are they
Speaker 2: are the trees laden already?
Speaker 16: No?
Speaker 22: No, not yet, I surprised you said, because I don't
Speaker 22: think they're near ready over here.
Speaker 2: So no, it might be, it might be with it,
Speaker 2: it might be with the drought and things too. That
Speaker 2: they might be a good because they do need the water.
Speaker 22: Yeah, that's right, and it's been pretty dry. Okay, thank
Speaker 22: you sweet hat for listening to me.
Speaker 2: No, it's my pleasure, Mary, and it's not only is
Speaker 2: my pleasures with job. Love you, Marcus. Your middle name
Speaker 2: should be for Joa. I bottled a lot last year
Speaker 2: and they are great. Never got tired of them. You
Speaker 2: should try growing some down where you are. Cheers, David,
Speaker 2: good show making enough, we've got some of the garden.
Speaker 2: I tried kenning them also to it was going to
Speaker 2: be a commercial enterprise. But watch the space Fijo as
Speaker 2: I like temrilas you've loved them, or to test the
Speaker 2: no middle ground. That's right, no one they're they're like
Speaker 2: I was gonna name some broadcasters. I won't. I don't
Speaker 2: know the smell of we Joe or lavender and have
Speaker 2: no desire to eat either. Love your show always, Lisa, always, Marcus.
Speaker 2: It's not the taste, it's the smell. Positively, Viole, I
Speaker 2: hate them, sadly. We have a sixty meter hedge of
Speaker 2: the disgusting stinky things. Richie. Can you get ai to
Speaker 2: summarize the JFK docs? I don't really want to, but
Speaker 2: can you ask them what's likely to be in it
Speaker 2: today tomorrow? Dan, Thanks Solender, it's Marcus. Welcome him, Marcus Hilendra.
Speaker 10: It's depends what varity you eating. Some verity can be
Speaker 10: you know, it's not not that sweet. And there's a
Speaker 10: lot of different varieties of features.
Speaker 2: Yeah, although I think the people that hate them, that
Speaker 2: would hate any variety, wouldn't they.
Speaker 10: Oh, if you give them white goods and golden goose,
Speaker 10: we'll enjoy it because they're quite big and maybe maybe
Speaker 10: maybe they're very nice and sweet. Kay's all right? Anatico white, Yeah,
Speaker 10: tribe unique, Yeah, moments. So there's quite a few different varieties.
Speaker 2: How come you how come you know so much?
Speaker 10: I used to work in the orchard.
Speaker 2: Yes, what what's the biggest commercially sold one?
Speaker 23: Uh?
Speaker 10: Those bigger fruits are normally white goose and golden goose
Speaker 10: and uh uh kakarika.
Speaker 2: And a polo is quite a big one too, is it?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 10: Okay, cockarique have royal else. I think it's like the
Speaker 10: name the franchise to a company. You can't not everyone
Speaker 10: can grow it. Yes, yeah, you have to have the
Speaker 10: right to do it.
Speaker 2: Okay, nice here from miss Linda. Thanks about seventeen past nine.
Speaker 2: Tastes like deep heat. It's a good point. Taste like
Speaker 2: deep heat.
Speaker 7: Not for me.
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe taste like something you rub on your body
Speaker 2: in the rugby changing rooms. Is that what it's about?
Speaker 2: Army huge on fijoas think they are like Durian for beginners.
Speaker 2: The smell intensifies with the taste. If you hold your nose,
Speaker 2: most people would be fine. I hate the skin like plums,
Speaker 2: mixture of tartness and sugar, exotic fruit for temperate climate, Marcus,
Speaker 2: free wet and windy here in christ Also, I hate
Speaker 2: fijo as they taste like a meaning perfume to me.
Speaker 2: Things and everyone I've met that hates fijos is from
Speaker 2: christ Church. Marcus. The extension to Nelson's runway won't make
Speaker 2: any difference to the residents planes fly with and regardless
Speaker 2: of the length. It's a good point too, isn't it. Oh,
Speaker 2: people love to moan about something I don't even know
Speaker 2: what sort of It's always sort of an anti climax,
Speaker 2: Nelson Airport. Why have I got strong feelings about Nelson Airport?
Speaker 2: I think I've been stuck there once or twice too often.
Speaker 15: Oh and I got that.
Speaker 2: I got They filmed me for Plas ten seven, biking
Speaker 2: from there to town without a helmet, past one of
Speaker 2: those sort of restaurants and a boats you and they're
Speaker 2: all sort of tapping at the window. It wasn't pleasant.
Speaker 2: I've blocked that memory. Twenty one past nine. Colin ats Marcus,
Speaker 2: good evening and welcome.
Speaker 5: Goody thinks.
Speaker 2: Hi Colin.
Speaker 5: You can hear me?
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, yeah, receiving your well how's your hearing?
Speaker 5: All right?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Good good.
Speaker 7: Look.
Speaker 5: The reason I'm ring tonight is this whole cash scenario
Speaker 5: where yeah, cash is king and noise.
Speaker 19: Was but.
Speaker 5: Place I went to today they wouldn't accept my cash.
Speaker 5: What they didn't have the would you say, didn't have
Speaker 5: the didn't have the technology to take cash? I like,
Speaker 5: it's cash, like it, you know, you don't need technology
Speaker 5: of crying.
Speaker 2: Out what's but that is not the first What sort
Speaker 2: of place.
Speaker 5: This was? This was an air clinic and christ church.
Speaker 2: Okay, well, good luck for them during the next quake.
Speaker 5: I reckon, yeah exactly.
Speaker 7: I thought.
Speaker 5: I thought pro Strege of all places would have would
Speaker 5: would love cash.
Speaker 2: Had had they had you already got what you went
Speaker 2: there for and you're paying at the end of it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the one it okay?
Speaker 2: Wow, goodness, And how the conversation going.
Speaker 19: Oh?
Speaker 5: Well, you know, I mean, there's a couple of lovely,
Speaker 5: nice ladies there.
Speaker 19: What was I to do?
Speaker 7: So?
Speaker 5: Yeah, I just had a card? It which Yeah did
Speaker 5: you have Did you have a card? Pay cash? Sorry?
Speaker 2: Did you have a card?
Speaker 7: I did?
Speaker 5: Likely?
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, So just beck a pedal back of it
Speaker 2: and tell me what's the problem.
Speaker 5: So well, just the fact that, like, if you go
Speaker 5: to a place you've got cash, which is legal tender,
Speaker 5: they should have provisions in place to be able to
Speaker 5: take the cash, and the.
Speaker 2: Fact they don't would indicate to me that it's probably
Speaker 2: not legal tender.
Speaker 5: Right, wow, well you know, like yeah, I'm I mean
Speaker 5: its crazy Colin.
Speaker 2: People always ring up and say the show they've got
Speaker 2: to accept cash. Everywhere you go, they got to accept cash.
Speaker 2: It's a law. But more and more there's places that
Speaker 2: don't accept cash and there seems to be no problem
Speaker 2: with it.
Speaker 7: Yeah, like, what do you do?
Speaker 5: So I'm ringing to vent you?
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I wonder from a legal standpoint whether all
Speaker 2: those people like you that say they've got to accept cash.
Speaker 2: Cash is king whether in fact they're deceived and whether
Speaker 2: in fact you don't need to accept it because you
Speaker 2: go out to a sports venue and everything's cash only
Speaker 2: sometimes like your food stalls and stuff like that, they
Speaker 2: don't get robbed for the money. It's quite common now,
Speaker 2: it is.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I mean yeah, most most places have like
Speaker 5: even even at markets, most most places have provisions for
Speaker 5: cash now, like it's you know, it's still it's still
Speaker 5: seen things like farmers' markets now in the morning. It's
Speaker 5: still a kiwi thing and cash is I guess it's
Speaker 5: a it's a culture type thing. It's what a culture
Speaker 5: type thing. Like we've always you know, it's always been
Speaker 5: the change in the pocket sort of thing. We've tried
Speaker 5: to well a lot a lot of people I know
Speaker 5: try to spey away from using the card and prefer cash.
Speaker 5: And I'm one of those people as.
Speaker 2: Well, because they're shifting.
Speaker 5: Oh just you don't like people sort of judging your
Speaker 5: spending habits.
Speaker 2: Because you're trying to avoid paying GST and stuffe.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean like if you know, like if you
Speaker 5: can take your cash out and then you've got like
Speaker 5: in a send amount each week that that you can spend,
Speaker 5: and it's it's just easier that way. I find it
Speaker 5: easier that way.
Speaker 2: It seems to me, Colin that christ people are particularly
Speaker 2: cash sensitive because they went through the quake and their
Speaker 2: ift poles didn't work and cash was quite important.
Speaker 5: Yeah, which I thought, and exactly the thought. I thought
Speaker 5: there'd be provisions in place, and Christ Chach of all
Speaker 5: places for them to take cash, not to not except.
Speaker 2: It exactly, Christ Church of all places.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, good thing you had your card though, way exactly. Ay,
Speaker 5: But fruits and thoughts for people out there, are.
Speaker 2: You going to take your business house? Where are You're
Speaker 2: not that perturbed?
Speaker 19: Oh?
Speaker 7: Like?
Speaker 5: Howten? Do you go to an airplace? You know once
Speaker 5: every couple of years, So next time I go, I
Speaker 5: guess I may look somewhere else.
Speaker 2: Yeah, brilliant, good on your car, straight shooter. I don't
Speaker 2: know if it's legally, I don't know. Look, it seems
Speaker 2: as I don't know what to say about things like this.
Speaker 2: I don't have Kesh's king. I don't know what that
Speaker 2: expression means. Marca. Some small town shops can't take cash
Speaker 2: to share the right changes. Banks have gone and shops
Speaker 2: can't get a float. Been loving for Joe as since
Speaker 2: a young boy running around having our racecourse Kiwi Classic.
Speaker 2: Any takeaways worth his salt will sell for Jo and
Speaker 2: milkshakes Andrew and what about kesh Is King? I need
Speaker 2: were talking about that because it's farmers they got cyber attacked.
Speaker 2: Who do cyber Attec Farmers? They seem so inconsequential. Yeah, oh, Graham, Marcus, welcome,
Speaker 2: hig Graham, there you go.
Speaker 17: And buddy, Yeah, good Graham, you're going to well, buddy,
Speaker 17: we're talking here.
Speaker 9: You're good.
Speaker 17: Good, we're talking cash.
Speaker 2: Yes, that's right, we are.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 17: Well, I've been in business and under the new legislation
Speaker 17: and all now you can't take cash. Okay, tell me
Speaker 17: about going to the bank. Can you take a thousand dollars?
Speaker 17: You've got to be signing documentation, you've got to take
Speaker 17: your photo taken and everything else under the money laundry.
Speaker 17: Oh yes, it's been brought in. That's what's creating all
Speaker 17: this havoc for everybody.
Speaker 2: So how's that affect you? What can't you do?
Speaker 17: You've got to have internet banking done. You can't take
Speaker 17: cash full stop.
Speaker 2: So you can't if you're a business, you can't deposit cash.
Speaker 17: Yeah, you have to prove where you've got it from.
Speaker 17: You go and buy something on trade me and you
Speaker 17: go in with cash, So they've got to take the
Speaker 17: photographs of what you've been segning on trade me and
Speaker 17: everything else to prove that it's not money laundry.
Speaker 2: How arduous is that?
Speaker 15: Okay?
Speaker 2: How hard is that? I mean, it's doable. Isn't it hard?
Speaker 17: Because I know someone that took three hundred dollars into
Speaker 17: a bank here and had problem had to go and
Speaker 17: get all the photographs and everything else, take everything and
Speaker 17: to prove that it was legit.
Speaker 2: So it hasn't been a problem with your business at
Speaker 2: someone you know?
Speaker 17: Right, No, I've been asked a question when I've taken
Speaker 17: it in, but I've sold my business now.
Speaker 2: So I'm not If you're depositing money, they want to
Speaker 2: know where it's from. Is that what you're saying?
Speaker 17: Yeah, there was a track on you now with money laundering.
Speaker 17: Every dollar you have.
Speaker 5: Is being watched.
Speaker 2: I didn't realize it went like that.
Speaker 15: Yeah, okay, I.
Speaker 17: Can't go anywhere now. On Sunday I went in to
Speaker 17: get some stuff and pay with if boss. I couldn't
Speaker 17: even get if poss being accepted, and it was had
Speaker 17: to be payway and the same thing had happened to
Speaker 17: somebody else on Saturday.
Speaker 2: Where was that at?
Speaker 17: That was in the mighty manner the two okay, what
Speaker 17: sort of shop? Clothing shop? And I think it was
Speaker 17: a service station Britain.
Speaker 2: Thanks Graham, Marcus. Would you believe whover in the mob
Speaker 2: we're behind the Kennedy's murder. Kennedy's were intent on shutting
Speaker 2: down the mob, Marcus, cash is more critical now than ever.
Speaker 2: The only way you can stop et cetera leaving no transactions,
Speaker 2: the only way you can shop leaving no transactions. Privacy
Speaker 2: and nimity cannot be compromised in a free society. Dave
Speaker 2: in the Far North JFK was killed because he didn't
Speaker 2: want the Vietnam war. So obviously the people who profit
Speaker 2: from the war didn't want the public knowing who's responsible.
Speaker 2: There you are marks on the weekend, ided a cash
Speaker 2: deposit to my bank account virus smart at at the
Speaker 2: Wistpac Bank of reasy transaction, Marcus, cash is only tracked
Speaker 2: over one k Marcus, let's talk about Otago, unied students
Speaker 2: drinking and couch burning. Cash is not king, but bloody
Speaker 2: helpful during a power cut. I think some companies used
Speaker 2: not taking cash excuse to stop starf fifth. I deposit
Speaker 2: cash unto the threty for our asp money machine, No problem,
Speaker 2: Lord Fongnui.
Speaker 17: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I imagine too. If you're working somewhere setting up stools
Speaker 2: at the rugby and you've got workers coming in but
Speaker 2: till just cash list, there's going to be no leakage
Speaker 2: and much less risk of getting robbed. Hi, Marcus, let's
Speaker 2: talk about Otago Union students drinking and couch burning rita. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't really have a problem with that. I thought
Speaker 2: Berne did. Wallaby was disrespectful. That got the attention of
Speaker 2: the headline they probably wanted, and I'm sure the university
Speaker 2: discourages Slash encourages it because it kind of looks like
Speaker 2: an exciting place to go to study. Twenty to ten.
Speaker 2: Hello Andrew, AT's Marcus. Welcome?
Speaker 23: Hi Marcus, how are you good?
Speaker 2: Thank you Andrew.
Speaker 23: I'll just go down a little bit of a conspiracy
Speaker 23: hole with JFK.
Speaker 10: Love that.
Speaker 23: Yeah, I thought you might, because I hope they say
Speaker 23: something about there was an assassin. I watched a program
Speaker 23: about thirty years ago called the men that killed JFK.
Speaker 23: And there was an assassin called Lucy on Saft and
Speaker 23: he was called the Badge Man and he was the
Speaker 23: man they reckon was up on the grassy dressed as
Speaker 23: a policeman and they've got a photo with him and
Speaker 23: a guy dressed as a railway worker beside him, and
Speaker 23: you can see the puff of smoke coming out. It's
Speaker 23: an old documentary, but it's worth seeing. And there was
Speaker 23: a gangster that wrote a letter he put away and
Speaker 23: he said, only release it after I die, and it
Speaker 23: said something about Lucien Sarti being the killer. But he
Speaker 23: died in Mexico City in nineteen seventy, so because he
Speaker 23: was a bad person and a killer. But that always
Speaker 23: interested me, the Algerian gangster side of it and getting
Speaker 23: involved because they wanted Vietnam to keep going and he
Speaker 23: wanted to stop Vietnam and it was all about money.
Speaker 23: And yeah, I just that's my side of it. And
Speaker 23: I'm fifty two and I've been following it since I
Speaker 23: was so Yeah, anyway, that's just my bit.
Speaker 7: Hang on, hang on.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a TV program that came from a
Speaker 2: book I believe.
Speaker 5: Is it right?
Speaker 23: Yeah, it was a long time ago. It was about
Speaker 23: mid nineties, early to mid nineties. I went for three hours.
Speaker 23: It was like a three part mini series. And there
Speaker 23: was lots and lots of different speculations about the three
Speaker 23: shooters and three different angles and two three teams of
Speaker 23: two which made six. And they were in a safe
Speaker 23: house for ten days after the shooting, and then they
Speaker 23: got out of Dallas. Was it was really interesting. I mean,
Speaker 23: there was lots of different, oh, speculation, but that was
Speaker 23: the most interesting one. And you know all those bums
Speaker 23: that got rounded up afterwards from the railway yards. A
Speaker 23: lot of them had brand new Polish shoes on and
Speaker 23: they were just let out and they weren't found. It
Speaker 23: was a lot of strange things. It was a lot
Speaker 23: of strange things.
Speaker 2: Andrew, what would be the motivation for the Algerian or
Speaker 2: the French drug traffickers to shoot Kennedy?
Speaker 23: Well, it was just a way for the CIA or
Speaker 23: the mafia to point the finger a way from America
Speaker 23: to somewhere else if anything fell apart. And also they
Speaker 23: needed the Vietnam water start, they needed Bell to get
Speaker 23: money and Boeing mine.
Speaker 2: So are you saying the CIA was behind these it
Speaker 2: was definitely.
Speaker 23: They did not like Kennedy and they wanted him gone.
Speaker 23: And he was signing things to bring back the Vietnam
Speaker 23: advisors from sixty three, and he was signing things saying
Speaker 23: we're not going to go over there, We're not going
Speaker 23: to start a ten twenty year war. And all the
Speaker 23: warmongers and the people that wanted to say is make money.
Speaker 23: He said, no, we want this to happen. We got
Speaker 23: to get rid of this guy. He's already cost us Cuba.
Speaker 2: You know, my problem with all of it, and maybe
Speaker 2: checked maybe.
Speaker 23: I'm open minded.
Speaker 2: So yeah, definitely my problem with any any book about
Speaker 2: like who was the Yorkshire Ripper or who killed JFK
Speaker 2: or anyone? It seems to me there's so much information
Speaker 2: now you can't go and have a broad look over
Speaker 2: everything that's so long time ago, so.
Speaker 23: Much there's too much, too much over the whole.
Speaker 2: Yes, So the only way you can do anything is
Speaker 2: you've got to go and find one person and focus
Speaker 2: on that. And if you do that, you can always
Speaker 2: find weird things. Hang on whine to.
Speaker 23: Say, who's to say that's the truth exactly? I mean
Speaker 23: it could be. I'm open minded. I know it could
Speaker 23: be all a load of rubbish, but you know, it's
Speaker 23: just what I've what I've seen over the years, and yeah,
Speaker 23: I just I find it very interesting. And of course
Speaker 23: the country can get rid of somebody who's causing them strife.
Speaker 23: I mean, I don't think Trump's going to last another year.
Speaker 23: I really don't.
Speaker 2: Well, the trouble is with Trump is that, you know
Speaker 2: he I won't even go there with that.
Speaker 23: I just look, I don't I don't hate him, I
Speaker 23: don't love him, but I don't think he's going to last.
Speaker 2: I look, he's certainly upset a lot of the law
Speaker 2: enforcement people with the release.
Speaker 23: I'm just.
Speaker 2: Thinking I was talking then I said, he's released. He's
Speaker 2: upset a lot of the law enforcement people, the releasing
Speaker 2: of the January sixth insurrectionist. Now, a lot of those
Speaker 2: people are probably involved in his security detail and things
Speaker 2: like that. So I think as time goes on, there's
Speaker 2: more people that are close to him with grievances. But anyway,
Speaker 2: how many times was ken Kenney was shot twice?
Speaker 10: Was he oh, oh.
Speaker 23: God, Well there's a magic bullet. There's no there's a
Speaker 23: net bullet, isn't there the magic bullet? And then the
Speaker 23: head bullet three three, but they reckon four. You couldn't
Speaker 23: hear the fourth. So yeah, yeah, But anyway, let some
Speaker 23: other people talk Marcus, and it's lovely to talk to you.
Speaker 2: I'll read some of wikipedi about that as well. Marcus,
Speaker 2: my ATM accepts cash, never asked for it from I
Speaker 2: rereader that last I had to mate. There was something
Speaker 2: stuff on trade and just prank the guaranteed you the
Speaker 2: banks won't accept your money. It just says on wikipediy.
Speaker 2: Conspiracy theories, the Kennedy assassination has been described as the
Speaker 2: mother of all conspiracies. For decades, poles have consistently found
Speaker 2: the majority of Americans believe there was a conspiracy. Some
Speaker 2: one thousand to two thousand books, mostly pro conspiracy, have
Speaker 2: been written about the killing across different theories. Oswald's roles
Speaker 2: varies from co conspirator to entirely innocent common culprits in FBI,
Speaker 2: the CIA, the US military, the mafia, the Military Industrial Complex,
Speaker 2: vice President Johnson Castro, the KGB, or some combination. Thereof
Speaker 2: forty two groups, only two assassins and two hundred and
Speaker 2: fourteen people had been accused in various assassination theories. Conspiracy
Speaker 2: theorists often argue there were multiple shooters or triangulation of
Speaker 2: cross far under the fatal shot was fired from the
Speaker 2: grassy knoll and stuck Kennet struck Kenny in the front
Speaker 2: of the head. Individual's president Dally Plows have been the
Speaker 2: subject of much speculation, including the Three Tramps, the Umbrella Man,
Speaker 2: and the purported Badgeman. Conspiracy theorists argue that your topsy
Speaker 2: and official investigations were flawed or it was complicit, and
Speaker 2: the witnesses of the Kennedy assassination met mysterious and suspicious deaths.
Speaker 2: Pretty interesting. I heard about the three Tramps. They're under
Speaker 2: police escort by this suppository. Depository got that one wrong?
Speaker 2: Did I apologize? The Umbrella Man, he's in the Zabrugga film,
Speaker 2: one of the closest bystanders when the present was first
Speaker 2: stuck by a bullet. The figure's behavior raised suspicion among
Speaker 2: investigators due to his maneuvering of an umbrella as Kennedy
Speaker 2: was passing him, despite clear skies. Oh, clearly he's guilty.
Speaker 2: It makes you want it, doesn't it. You see something
Speaker 2: that Yeah, of course that happened. Now the badge man.
Speaker 2: You know, the badgeman you can't really see because of
Speaker 2: the flesh from the muzzle of the gun a person
Speaker 2: wearing a police uniform. The moniker itself derives from the
Speaker 2: bright spot on his chest, which is said to resemble
Speaker 2: a gleaming badge. So yes, it's not something that really
Speaker 2: technology has done much to help, has it, really? Marcus?
Speaker 2: I went to Deadly Street Plaza rarely how yours would
Speaker 2: shot you? Chilling? How easy it was to shoot him?
Speaker 2: Cash is good to need an emergence sees when ATMs
Speaker 2: are all out of power? What about the scams out there?
Speaker 2: The scammers are now on next level and globally costing
Speaker 2: billions in Some bank workers spind all day dealing with
Speaker 2: customers that have been scammed. That's from Emma greetings, welcome,
Speaker 2: how amonamous Marcus are. But it's good where you are
Speaker 2: here till twelve o'clock tonight, looking forward m put as
Speaker 2: I say here to the end eight hundred and eighty
Speaker 2: Taddy and nine nine two detects, looking forward to what
Speaker 2: you want to talk about? JFK and fijoas. Why do
Speaker 2: you hate fijo as so much? What do they taste?
Speaker 2: Like to you if you are one of those haters.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm curious about. Tonight someone says fijo has
Speaker 2: smell slickly sweet and make me feel ill. I have
Speaker 2: eaten one and spread out and just awful to eat.
Speaker 2: It's pretty sure. The point is that you might have
Speaker 2: something along those lines you want to write about. That's
Speaker 2: kind of where we are tonight, Marcus, come May June.
Speaker 2: Fijo as our king. To me, the taste is like
Speaker 2: pineapp with a texture like pear. There you go, and
Speaker 2: the other fruits that you hate, rock melon has been
Speaker 2: quite big also tonight, what right about? There's something else
Speaker 2: you want to mention too. People are kind of freaking
Speaker 2: out about cash and places not accepting cash. That's something
Speaker 2: you might want to mention. And the JFK files will
Speaker 2: be released tomorrow. Some of you might remember the Oliver
Speaker 2: Stone movie JFK. I never saw it. I've been involved
Speaker 2: with lots of discussions about it by JFK obsessives. I
Speaker 2: wonder if the internet's been good for JFK conspiracy theorists.
Speaker 2: I suppose probably it's enabled people to kind of discuss stuff,
Speaker 2: but I don't think anyone's clear about anything. But yes,
Speaker 2: I say two thousand books have been written about it.
Speaker 2: I read an amazing long form article about Johnson getting
Speaker 2: sworn on the plane as the acting president. Now, I
Speaker 2: think Kennedy's wife was on that plane, and I can't
Speaker 2: quite think how that would go about, but yeah, that
Speaker 2: seems to be the situation there. I don't even know
Speaker 2: how that came about. It was a remarkable article. The
Speaker 2: president waited for Jackie Kennedy, who in turn would not
Speaker 2: leave Dallas without her husband's body, to arrive aboard Air
Speaker 2: Force one. Kennedy's casket was finally brought to the aircraft,
Speaker 2: but take off was delayed until Johnson took the oath
Speaker 2: of office. So it's pretty extraordinary, the inauguration of JFK.
Speaker 2: Sorry Off Johnson. I'll read you a bit more about that,
Speaker 2: because that's fascinating anyway, Pete, it's Marcus. Welcome, good evening, Hi, Pete.
Speaker 12: Marcus. Yeah, disregarding people that won't accept cash, they've got
Speaker 12: a business, whether it's a copy place or whatever, you've
Speaker 12: got to realize that cash is still legal tender in
Speaker 12: this country, and if they want a business, I'll go
Speaker 12: to somewhere else. In my coffee because in the day
Speaker 12: is it's like elderly people that carry cash and the
Speaker 12: fast business. I'll accept either either.
Speaker 2: Hey, Pete, Pete, Pete, Pete. Yep, yep, yep, you say, yep.
Speaker 2: That's why I'm talking to you. You say cash is
Speaker 2: legal tender, right, yeah, but there's plenty of places now
Speaker 2: that have opened up that don't accept cash. So it
Speaker 2: may be legal, legal tender, But from what I can see,
Speaker 2: you're also perfectly entitled not to accept it, am I right?
Speaker 12: Yeah, a business. If you're in a business near Marcus,
Speaker 12: someone come into your shop with some coffee shops.
Speaker 2: That you've said that. But the question I'm asking you, right,
Speaker 2: it seems as though people can set up shops and
Speaker 2: not accept cash and the police haven't come to charge
Speaker 2: them or anything.
Speaker 12: Well, we could we could talk about getting debate about
Speaker 12: it to I suppose in the day as far as
Speaker 12: I'm the sin if you're own business, yeah.
Speaker 2: But hang on, hang on, hang on, Pete, because I
Speaker 2: want to narrow down to the final point. It must
Speaker 2: be legal to run a business and not accept cash,
Speaker 2: otherwise people wouldn't do it.
Speaker 12: Wow, good luck to them, because in the day, as
Speaker 12: I'll go to a place that will accept my money.
Speaker 12: Because people that years ago, think about years ago, there
Speaker 12: was no cards. Everybody talk cash, everybody survived. All the
Speaker 12: business they want, they'd always take money. So why do
Speaker 12: these people go in business. I don't want your money
Speaker 12: like that. Here's here's so many excuses.
Speaker 2: We're also all dying from polio and TV. Things have changed,
Speaker 2: things have moved on. We've got, you know, technology, it's.
Speaker 12: Up to you if you want to use it, say
Speaker 12: a lot of old people. I listened to the Talk
Speaker 12: About show quite a bit, as you know, there's a
Speaker 12: lot of old people now. Before these fees the banks
Speaker 12: are charging us pay pay wave in everything beginning, I.
Speaker 2: Kind of lose interest in this topic. And ess people
Speaker 2: can tell me the rights of consumers because you don't
Speaker 2: know what they are. I don't even reckon you'd go
Speaker 2: out and buy a coffee Pete.
Speaker 12: At the end of the day, Marcus, if you've got
Speaker 12: a bus, you don't care about Pete.
Speaker 2: But Pete, you said you're going to take your coffee elsewhere.
Speaker 2: I don't reckon you'd buy a coffee out.
Speaker 12: No, I buy coffee in my mind, just as that
Speaker 12: coming down from all from that, we get coffee, don't
Speaker 12: a regular thing. But it's not even that. Like you
Speaker 12: go to hospital shops. They all take cash. So why
Speaker 12: should you you think that you're above somebody else and
Speaker 12: take my money.
Speaker 2: You've got you, you've got all this consumer power. I
Speaker 2: don't only about ten of you with that consumer power.
Speaker 12: No, there's quite a few out there now have cash,
Speaker 12: older people than that. If you're not going to cater
Speaker 12: for both, you can't care for both. You won't accept both.
Speaker 12: It should be the customer's choice whether they want to
Speaker 12: have cash going to that store, at a coffee shop,
Speaker 12: I don't care where it is. If you don't want
Speaker 12: to take the cash, well good luck you having the business.
Speaker 12: This is what's all i'd say, Do you really want
Speaker 12: a business? This is take cash?
Speaker 2: Nice hear from your Pete. Thank you, Lola Marcus, welcome.
Speaker 5: Hi, Hi.
Speaker 18: You were talking about shops not accepting cash. It's all
Speaker 18: about the banks charging them for how much cash they use,
Speaker 18: and I I think the cost is quite high, and
Speaker 18: they have made the choice not to accept cash because
Speaker 18: they can't afford it.
Speaker 15: So the banks are controlling the money, the cash.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yes, well the banks. I'm here, can you
Speaker 2: hear me, Lola, Yeah, I can hear you.
Speaker 15: Yeah.
Speaker 2: The banks charge for their service.
Speaker 18: Yes, but charging a high price. I mean, transferring money
Speaker 18: has become a very expensive thing for people who don't
Speaker 18: have online banking. Yeah, and so the banks are creaming
Speaker 18: it in this country, that's right. So it's really not
Speaker 18: a choice for this for small businesses to accept cash.
Speaker 18: Bigger companies usually take cash, but you know, well, I
Speaker 18: want to have to see how it goes.
Speaker 2: But what is interesting, it seems the more and more
Speaker 2: shops have set up that refuse to take cash. Is
Speaker 2: that your experience as well?
Speaker 18: Well, I mostly use I'm doing small purchases, I'll use cash,
Speaker 18: but it's usually in supermarket or.
Speaker 15: Or take away. But that's about it.
Speaker 2: Okay, lot of thank you. Nice to hear from you. Hi, Roger.
Speaker 10: Hey, how are you doing, Marcus?
Speaker 9: Good?
Speaker 2: Thanks Roger.
Speaker 10: But here, you know, I kind of think that one
Speaker 10: of the things about dealing with cash for a business
Speaker 10: is that it takes you women hassle to get it
Speaker 10: to a bank because there aren't that many banks around there,
Speaker 10: or they used to be, and traveling transporting cash and
Speaker 10: that can be dodging these days as well.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, and depositive. It's not straightforward. You go
Speaker 2: to those machines as that straightforward, but it rejects a
Speaker 2: lot of your notes and it's it's a lot of
Speaker 2: p lava.
Speaker 10: Well, yeah, I'm not sure about this, but I've heard
Speaker 10: it of you if you gave it the big here
Speaker 10: five thousand dollars cash and one of the positives that
Speaker 10: they won't do it.
Speaker 2: And well someone said that, because someone said that earlier,
Speaker 2: but some people have denied it. It's sort of do
Speaker 2: with money laundering. But I'm not entirely sure, Roger want
Speaker 2: that limit is It seems as though it varies. We
Speaker 2: might say if we can get clarification on that. Twenty
Speaker 2: past ten and a bit. Scotty Marcus, Hello.
Speaker 15: Marcus, you do mate?
Speaker 5: You good? You're good, Scotty nice nice.
Speaker 6: Hey.
Speaker 15: Yeah, I'm all for cash and businesses accepting run our
Speaker 15: hospital business and we tend to get a lot of cash,
Speaker 15: and on public holidays, and I don't know if there's
Speaker 15: people using their cashes for that, but there's definitely like
Speaker 15: an influx on on those days. But what I was
Speaker 15: remember the legality of taking cash. You don't have to
Speaker 15: accept it for payment of goods. But you do have
Speaker 15: to accept it for debt. If someone owes your money
Speaker 15: in a business sense, you have to accept it from them.
Speaker 2: Okay, so what's the difference. Can you just talk to
Speaker 2: you a bit more about that? If someone owes you debt,
Speaker 2: so like on.
Speaker 15: A on a business sense of invoicing, if you if
Speaker 15: someone owes you for not not on the across the
Speaker 15: tell kind of thing.
Speaker 2: So it's a delayed payment so to speak.
Speaker 15: Yes, yeah, you can't refuse payment by cash if someone yeah,
Speaker 15: has you know, if they if they owe you five
Speaker 15: thousand dollars for supplied.
Speaker 5: Goods or.
Speaker 2: But it seems so, can you can at a shop
Speaker 2: or a business immediately, We don't. We don't accept cash.
Speaker 5: So you've got yeah, it seems it seems silly to me.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the way explains it.
Speaker 18: I like it.
Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, that's that's that's how I get right. But
Speaker 15: I just you know, if someone's walking into your business
Speaker 15: and they want to give you cash for whatever you're
Speaker 15: selling them, just accept it. It's simple to me.
Speaker 2: How hard is it? How much of a hassler's banking
Speaker 2: for you?
Speaker 15: It's not hard at all. No, No, we're by no
Speaker 15: means a big business.
Speaker 5: But it's just.
Speaker 15: It's a cost, of course, like all.
Speaker 2: The time cost. But when you've got your notes and
Speaker 2: your coins, I presume you've got a bank nearby, have you.
Speaker 15: It's the wee way away. So we've got to go
Speaker 15: and use the automatic cash like the change machine, which
Speaker 15: is I mean, which is handy because you just like
Speaker 15: we're doing them without and exchange, you know, for the
Speaker 15: money for hotel and all that kind of carry on.
Speaker 15: But the rest of it, it's not, it's not hard.
Speaker 15: You can just deposit at those machines as well.
Speaker 2: What did you what did you what did you call
Speaker 2: those machines cutty the cash.
Speaker 15: The change machines? Yeah, yeah, we deal with like as
Speaker 15: B and they just they have the automatic machines where
Speaker 15: you just deposit and then yeah, it's it's I guess
Speaker 15: it's just all the cost of business. It's not it's
Speaker 15: not huge.
Speaker 7: Do you do that day?
Speaker 2: Do you do that daily? Or weekly? Uh?
Speaker 15: Probably weekly?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's an hour.
Speaker 15: Yeah, it'd been hours, Edmund.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, you know.
Speaker 15: You're not talking about like huge huge you know, time
Speaker 15: or effort.
Speaker 2: And did you say they charged you for that the
Speaker 2: use of that machine to deposit your money there.
Speaker 15: Yeah, if you just go in and you you do
Speaker 15: that and you just you know, a chuckle an land
Speaker 15: and that it's a nominal to it.
Speaker 5: It's not a lot.
Speaker 15: Maybe twenty bucks.
Speaker 2: Okay, I didn't know then, okay, And they don't accept
Speaker 2: the money of the telly. You've got to go to
Speaker 2: the machine and feed it all on to the thing,
Speaker 2: don't you.
Speaker 9: Oh no, no, no you can.
Speaker 15: You can go straight to the talent as well. You can.
Speaker 15: You can speak to a human and give it to them. Yeah, absolutely,
Speaker 15: they do that as well.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, appreciate it. Thanks Scotty. Twenty three past ten Marcus. Welcome, Hello, good.
Speaker 21: Evening, Oh, good evening, Marcus.
Speaker 15: How are you are you?
Speaker 2: Good things?
Speaker 15: Rap?
Speaker 19: Yeah?
Speaker 21: With the cash, I don't know. I mean, there's reasons
Speaker 21: to why people would want to use cash, but at
Speaker 21: the end of the day, a business can just not
Speaker 21: have cash, and I think it's just part of their
Speaker 21: business model in a sense. It's just like sort of
Speaker 21: the services they offer, and they don't offer what they
Speaker 21: can and can't do. And I think method of payment
Speaker 21: is one of them, because for example, warehouse or any
Speaker 21: other places you can use after pay, you can use
Speaker 21: different sorts of financing options, and so you know that's
Speaker 21: part of their business, is what they accept as payment.
Speaker 13: Yeah yeah, and.
Speaker 21: You go, oh, no, it's just cash. It's very uncommon
Speaker 21: these days, even though it is still used and it's
Speaker 21: legal tender, and most people don't have it. I mean,
Speaker 21: whenever I use cash, it's either to gift to someone
Speaker 21: or to deposit in the bank from a gift. And
Speaker 21: they even they've got the auto depositing machines that take
Speaker 21: coins as well now at banks, so you don't even.
Speaker 24: Need to go in.
Speaker 2: And you know, yes, I have used one of those.
Speaker 2: I belonged to a group. I was in charge of
Speaker 2: the banking. I had to do that. But that was
Speaker 2: that was hard work because it was an embarrassing group
Speaker 2: to bank money for. But yeah, oh yeah, I these
Speaker 2: days with retail now you can actually now they've got
Speaker 2: those payment apps on cell now you can be a
Speaker 2: trader a vendor with a cell phone app. Yeah, it's
Speaker 2: so amazingly straightforward. I mean, the cost of running your business.
Speaker 2: You don't need to tell you don't anything, just can
Speaker 2: actually start all with your phone and start accepting money.
Speaker 2: I mean that's brilliant.
Speaker 21: Yeah, that's quite cool, and because you're not using cash,
Speaker 21: then you can sort of save costs as well. You
Speaker 21: don't have to worry about sort of insurance I think
Speaker 21: would be cheaper because they don't have cash being handled.
Speaker 21: And also when you're cashing out, even for the bigger,
Speaker 21: bigger businesses, you've got to have at least usually two
Speaker 21: staff cashing out and security and it takes you to
Speaker 21: be half an hour, So that's the wages to go
Speaker 21: into that. There's quite a lot and very high risk.
Speaker 21: Obviously a lot of businesses with all the theft that's
Speaker 21: happening these days, they wouldn't want to handle cash, you know, no, and.
Speaker 2: If you've got young staff, you know, you'd want to
Speaker 2: protect them. So there's less there's less worry that they're
Speaker 2: going to be a target of a rob there is
Speaker 2: less worry they're going to give out the wrong change
Speaker 2: accidentally in a busy store or something like that, because
Speaker 2: that can happen. I mean, it seems to me it
Speaker 2: just seems so sensible not to accept cash.
Speaker 21: Yeah, that's right. I think people the cash it comes
Speaker 21: from different fears of privacy and all that, but at
Speaker 21: the end of the day, like even cash transactions and stuff.
Speaker 21: It can be tracked to a certain degree, you know,
Speaker 21: with cameras and receding and all that, but that becomes
Speaker 21: a separate issue. So I think businesses that don't have
Speaker 21: cash it's just part of their business model, but it's
Speaker 21: also limited. I'm in Wellington and there's there's hardly any
Speaker 21: businesses that don't take cash. They still have so many
Speaker 21: that take cares, even the smaller ones.
Speaker 2: I think what happens when someone's got to sports DN
Speaker 2: user events that often the people will be cashless. I
Speaker 2: think that's just because of the chaos nature of it.
Speaker 2: Nice to talk for you, right, thanks so much for that. Pool.
Speaker 2: It's Marcus all over evening.
Speaker 25: Hey Mike is here, you're going good pool. I think
Speaker 25: the elephant in the room is cards because they get skimmed.
Speaker 25: Your money's not safe it.
Speaker 2: I don't want to be jumping down your throat, but
Speaker 2: have you ever been skimmed? Because I never have, No, not.
Speaker 25: Yet, but but you know you actually have a look.
Speaker 25: I think the bank's biggest headache is replacing people's money
Speaker 25: when they have been skimmed and they've done nothing wrong
Speaker 25: and the transaction is in a sphere that we can't
Speaker 25: see you. You can't physically see your money because it's
Speaker 25: it's not with you obviously, So we're in a world
Speaker 25: that's a bit different. But I do agree with Guy
Speaker 25: your last caller. I have this one thing that I
Speaker 25: watched on online and there's two politicians I think they're
Speaker 25: in Australia, and it made perfect sense to me. So,
Speaker 25: if you've got ten dollars on your cash flow card
Speaker 25: and you hand it over the counter and you swiped
Speaker 25: your goods and they came to nine dollars or ten whatever,
Speaker 25: is that ten dollars still of the same value?
Speaker 2: Tell me it again.
Speaker 25: So you bought something for ten bucks.
Speaker 5: And you swipe your cat.
Speaker 25: Is that value still the same? Is what it was
Speaker 25: when you spent it? And the answer is no, because
Speaker 25: you ever think it, Well, the bank in all of
Speaker 25: the interest, in the small processes that have to come
Speaker 25: off that the online people that have to manage that transaction,
Speaker 25: it's now forty nine cents less. So the more times
Speaker 25: that you do your hand over a ten dollar not
Speaker 25: it's still the same tendllar. Note is he taken to
Speaker 25: the bank? Does that make sense?
Speaker 2: It doesn't hurt me.
Speaker 5: Yeah, And I was.
Speaker 25: Thinking we're devaluing the currency by using the Internet and
Speaker 25: the systems that people are putting in place. I think
Speaker 25: robberies are the main thing. I really don't.
Speaker 2: Okay, nice to hear from you, Paul, thank you for that. Brent, Hello,
Speaker 2: it's Marcus. Welcome.
Speaker 26: Yeah, Marca, last dear. Middle of winters in Malia over
Speaker 26: Nausy here and in the book with the big giant
Speaker 26: Museum of the moment, Yes, yeah, and have a midwinter
Speaker 26: festival as well. It's huge, going on for a whole week.
Speaker 26: And I went down there and and I've made a
Speaker 26: couple hundred bucks in the pocket pussy bucks. And when
Speaker 26: you get a feed, he said, oh, sorry, Loves, there's
Speaker 26: no cash here.
Speaker 19: You know.
Speaker 26: I remember they told me that all mowna business. The
Speaker 26: feast was everything they do was set up from day one,
Speaker 26: cashler the whole thing.
Speaker 5: And and we went to the museum.
Speaker 26: You catch the ferry and go across and you play
Speaker 26: again to get onto the museum and to buy the food.
Speaker 26: Not that it sort of effected anyway, because I do
Speaker 26: that all the time. Anyway, It was it was just
Speaker 26: one of those It was a huge organization, thousands of
Speaker 26: zounds of people go through through the daily in the
Speaker 26: two season and the whole thing is just all cash,
Speaker 26: but a both pretty smoothly.
Speaker 5: I've got a space.
Speaker 2: So so you said it's all no cash, right.
Speaker 26: No cash at all? One no cash. We had. The
Speaker 26: whole business model was they're going to set up this
Speaker 26: museum them and their midwinter festival. Was they actually that
Speaker 26: it's not at the museum. They hold that in the
Speaker 26: city of Hobart and it's set up no cash at all.
Speaker 26: But I do like cash myself. I get a bit
Speaker 26: of cash now and again, and I go out and
Speaker 26: spend it, usually on the coffee restaurant kind of thing,
Speaker 26: and so I do like it. But I understand because
Speaker 26: that was at the Midwinter Food Festival. I mean it's
Speaker 26: shoulder to shoulders, jam packed with people. I wouldn't want
Speaker 26: to be counting cash and tumbling and tell you it's
Speaker 26: so much easier to wipe of cat. Yeah, it's an
Speaker 26: interesting one.
Speaker 2: I do think it's an amazing technology. How was the museum?
Speaker 26: Oh well, you love it, you hate it, You discuss
Speaker 26: the buyer it because there's some pretty vulgar things in there.
Speaker 26: Wall you were made by it all at the same time,
Speaker 26: So and there's something for everybody. Uh there's probably are
Speaker 26: eighteen year places he wouldn't take little kids.
Speaker 5: Yeah, getting yeah, yeah, But I'll tell.
Speaker 26: You it's also amazing that challenges your perception and your brain.
Speaker 26: They're very, very clever. That's quite amazing. It's quite amazing.
Speaker 26: I mean, I'll tell you that one half piast was
Speaker 26: drawn by the wind. Some clever guy made this mechanical
Speaker 26: device all connected to a little mini windmill outside and
Speaker 26: it goes along with these the shafts and linkages, and
Speaker 26: you put a pin in this device and and the
Speaker 26: wind as the wind blows, that rolls a scroll of
Speaker 26: paper around and the pen schools on the paper and
Speaker 26: it makes the pattern, and it's all done by the
Speaker 26: wind and things like that. It's just amazing.
Speaker 7: I loved it.
Speaker 26: My wife, she's family. That's while I was there, he
Speaker 26: sort of had mixed feelings, but I thought it was amazing.
Speaker 2: I kind of just kind of when you're talking about it, Brent,
Speaker 2: were you because I think the guy that started in
Speaker 2: funded the whole museum. He was a guy that made
Speaker 2: a fortune from casinos and like a computer, So I
Speaker 2: wonder if that's why he's gone cashless. You know, I
Speaker 2: don't know what. I don't know what the connection is there.
Speaker 2: I'm just wondering about it.
Speaker 26: Yeah, but then it's going there just for that reason.
Speaker 26: Sexual Kiky this guy.
Speaker 2: You know, I've heard about the wall of Vault. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's right. Yeah, so I have heard about that one.
Speaker 2: So thank you, Brett. Nice to talk to you. Twenty
Speaker 2: four away from eleven. How are you people? What is
Speaker 2: happening out there? And this st Land? Marcus till twelve
Speaker 2: State Highway three, good to go. There has been instant excident.
Speaker 2: Brown's Bay Roads close their single vehicle accident. Marcus. Your
Speaker 2: discussion on KESH news of the other day with violt
Speaker 2: whole situation all the hemisphere Russia, Ukraine, Norway and Swede
Speaker 2: advised the population to keep KESH on hand. Marcus. I
Speaker 2: can't believe they won't accept my anymore. Marcus. I buy groceries.
Speaker 2: I either draw cash also to save. When the machines
Speaker 2: go down, it will be used. Yes, it's about the
Speaker 2: cost the economy. It's about stores being robbed, staff being staled,
Speaker 2: cash extortion of individuals. It's bad people are being harmed
Speaker 2: and afraid to come forward. Also, gamers are putting stolen
Speaker 2: money on sites which they can lose lots of money.
Speaker 2: It's about getting it personal Google phone accounts and doing
Speaker 2: crime on cashboard phones can't wait until cash is gone, Marcus.
Speaker 2: I carry cash to pay the taxi because they charged
Speaker 2: two fifty pays a card, which is extra five dollars
Speaker 2: there and back.
Speaker 10: Loll.
Speaker 15: I know what the.
Speaker 2: Good on you, Marcus hutch Here. I think the movie
Speaker 2: jaff was a pretty good representation of what might have happened.
Speaker 2: Good movie. The banks don't want to pay staff to
Speaker 2: count cash cost cutting, and they don't want to pay
Speaker 2: security companies to cut cash back and forth. I did
Speaker 2: in the Weekend overhear a conversation from a woman phoning
Speaker 2: the bank, and it wasn't pleasant to hear. This is
Speaker 2: just I don't want to pivot to scams. But jeepers, creepers.
Speaker 2: You know the old classic text from the son who's
Speaker 2: lost his cell phone needs money for a while, Marcus,
Speaker 2: I can't believe what I'm hearing on the use of cash.
Speaker 2: I volunteer for an organization at least fifty percent of
Speaker 2: admissions are in cash. I was at the Supermarke Day.
Speaker 2: The gentleman in front of me paid in cash. The
Speaker 2: aengassistant had no difficult and gave him has changed. Plus,
Speaker 2: we need cash. Those who have lived through floods, what
Speaker 2: would what would a flood do to cash? Tell me
Speaker 2: about floods. I love A Texas says, I can't believe
Speaker 2: what I'm hearing. I can't believe what I'm hearing. I
Speaker 2: think right, and this might be peculiar to me. If
Speaker 2: I use payWave by just clicking my phone my four
Speaker 2: digit pin and waving it right to purchase something, Psychologically,
Speaker 2: to me, it seems almost cheap as I'm not paying
Speaker 2: for it because I don't have to go and get
Speaker 2: cash and hand that over. I prefer that the way,
Speaker 2: isn't it? I find it a more acceptable way to spend.
Speaker 2: Linda Marcus Hello, Hi Linda, Yeah, Hi Marcus.
Speaker 3: Now you're asking about mentioning about floods. Two years ago
Speaker 3: in Gisbane, we had cycling Gabriel that came through. Now
Speaker 3: it took out the power lines, but that that was
Speaker 3: one issue that only lasted less than a day for
Speaker 3: hear Us and Gisban. But it was the internet that
Speaker 3: was taken out when the cable was taken out and
Speaker 3: we had five days without any internet, which meant that
Speaker 3: we couldn't get any cash right of the machine. So
Speaker 3: if you didn't have cash, you couldn't get petrol, you
Speaker 3: couldn't buy food. It was it was a huge because
Speaker 3: a lot of people don't carry cash and weren't prepared
Speaker 3: for the you know, the civil devents disaster that we had.
Speaker 3: And yeah, so it was certainly a lesson on you know,
Speaker 3: having a supply that was there up the coast. There
Speaker 3: was a chap that managed to get around the East
Speaker 3: Cape too. I think he went to Totringer or Fokotani
Speaker 3: and he drew out a large amount of money so
Speaker 3: that he could operate a personal bank up the coast,
Speaker 3: so that people could actually buy food because they also
Speaker 3: couldn't access money, which meant they couldn't do any shopping.
Speaker 2: So obviously I was a bit remote from that whole
Speaker 2: flood because we're from a broadcasting point of view. There
Speaker 2: was two theaters. There was Gisbond and also Hawks Bay yep,
Speaker 2: And yeah, I completely agree with what you're saying. You
Speaker 2: know that it would have been worry did they get
Speaker 2: temporary at machines there after a day or two? Is
Speaker 2: that what happened or took a bit longer than that.
Speaker 3: No, No, because we didn't have the internet, so there
Speaker 3: was nothing that was coming through. And then then when
Speaker 3: there was a little bit of cash, I mean, the
Speaker 3: cues were you know, more as long people to see them. Yeah,
Speaker 3: so it was a real issue. I mean there were
Speaker 3: you know, people were sort of loaning money if they
Speaker 3: had it, but otherwise, if you went to the petrol
Speaker 3: station you could get out of you could get a
Speaker 3: small amount of petrol because they were restricting on how
Speaker 3: much they could give people. But yeah, it was a
Speaker 3: real issue.
Speaker 2: So what do you think happened now? When there's a
Speaker 2: cyclone coming or it's a situation it looks like it's
Speaker 2: going to rain really heavily, Will people go and get cash?
Speaker 2: Is that you think? Will that be the mentality now?
Speaker 3: I think so? Yeah, I mean certainly, certainly I did.
Speaker 3: I mean then there were people, you know, buying tortures
Speaker 3: and getting in water and preparing for the worst. So yeah,
Speaker 3: people people do have to prepare and have sort of
Speaker 3: supplies will suit with the es they need it.
Speaker 2: Okay, Linda, thank you for I do appreciate that. By
Speaker 2: the way, I've been visible other stuff today. But it
Speaker 2: seems as though christ Church is just getting hammered by
Speaker 2: hail and really strong winds. If you look at Windy
Speaker 2: dot com, it's not messing around. Straight up from the
Speaker 2: south Wow, bang straight into banks fins, just straight up
Speaker 2: the harbor ekadaa and then just bang an all thround
Speaker 2: christ Church. So yeah, I'm hearing you wow shouts it anyway,
Speaker 2: Get in touch, Barbara, Marcus. Welcome, Hi Barbara.
Speaker 14: Oh hello Marcus. Now listening to you and hearing and
Speaker 14: talking about cash and everything else. I work in a
Speaker 14: op shop at times and we do not accept a
Speaker 14: payWave with your payWave card. It's an absolute gift for
Speaker 14: criminals because sometimes people forget about their card and we'll
Speaker 14: sort of leave a card behind in any shop or
Speaker 14: wherever they might be. And if it's a payWave, look
Speaker 14: at the lovely time. All you've got to do is
Speaker 14: just wave it over the cash thing and you can
Speaker 14: do is whatever you like. The payWave is a perfectly
Speaker 14: criminal opportunity. But I prefer cash myself. I have a
Speaker 14: mixture of that. I do have a card as well,
Speaker 14: but I use cash more than anything. But payWave is
Speaker 14: a criminals gift. What do you think of that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't get too freaked out my payWave. I
Speaker 2: mean most of my pays on my phone when you've
Speaker 2: got to enter a four digit pin number, So yes,
Speaker 2: a bit safer there. I think there's a limit on payWave,
Speaker 2: isn't there for a contactless swipe?
Speaker 14: Yeah, yeah, there is a limit on it, but I
Speaker 14: mean you can still go into half a dozen different
Speaker 14: shops and send up to that limit on it all. Oh, yes,
Speaker 14: it's a criminal opportunity.
Speaker 2: How much is the limit? Do you know off by hand?
Speaker 14: No, I don't go off I had, Yeah, but that's
Speaker 14: just my feeling of it.
Speaker 2: Nice to hear for you, Barbara Lorraine. It's Marcus. Welcome.
Speaker 27: Hi Marcus. I just want to reinforce what the lady
Speaker 27: who was ringing from Gisbone was saying about the cyclone.
Speaker 27: I was supposed to fly up to Napier to Deco
Speaker 27: that year and was tenseled much my sister's discuss. But
Speaker 27: she was without phone for nearly two weeks, and if
Speaker 27: they hadn't had a small stash of cash, they wouldn't
Speaker 27: have had food or petrol or anything along those lines.
Speaker 27: Because most of the supermarkets couldn't even open their doors
Speaker 27: because they were run by electricity, and mainly the Maria's
Speaker 27: got people to bring food that was in their freezers
Speaker 27: that was going off because the freezers had no power
Speaker 27: and they had cookups and they were just giving away
Speaker 27: the food. So cash was king definitely for at least
Speaker 27: three to four weeks up in Hawk's Bay.
Speaker 2: So what happens next time you go and get money?
Speaker 15: Is that right?
Speaker 2: What happens next time when the flood happens, you go
Speaker 2: and get cash? So you're ready? Is that what you reckompete?
Speaker 27: You have a stash of it before it happens. You
Speaker 27: should always have some cash in your house any rate.
Speaker 27: You never know when you might have a disaster. Doesn't
Speaker 27: necessarily have to be a sight to own. It could
Speaker 27: be a landslip, it could be a fire anything. But
Speaker 27: I mean, even if you had a fire in your home,
Speaker 27: all your credit cards would just melt, wouldn't they?
Speaker 7: That?
Speaker 27: Dommy? I mean cash, cash will always be around.
Speaker 23: It's always been around the rain.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you had a fire in your house, your
Speaker 2: money would burn.
Speaker 27: No, mine's in a metal box.
Speaker 2: Wow a fire like a safe?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 6: Why not?
Speaker 19: Wow?
Speaker 2: You put your cards in there too. But hadn't thought
Speaker 2: about that. Nice to hear from you, Irain. Thank you
Speaker 2: so true. Marcus. I have five thousand dollars cash in
Speaker 2: my metal safe downstairs. Has it bolted to the floor.
Speaker 2: Suppose to trouble the safe? If someone comes in and says,
Speaker 2: give us your number to the safe, then what do
Speaker 2: you do? Well, I can't remember, and they go to say,
Speaker 2: I have the spear care at my neighbor's house. What's
Speaker 2: about your neighbor will rob you. It's a joke, people,
Speaker 2: I'm not going to try put fear of God and
Speaker 2: to peel their neagh is going to rob them. Now
Speaker 2: this will be of interest to some of you. John
Speaker 2: Paddy Hemingway has died at the age of one hundred
Speaker 2: and five. He was last surviving pilot from the Battle
Speaker 2: of Britain. Died at his home in Dublin. He was
Speaker 2: twenty when he, as comrades in the Royal Air Force,
Speaker 2: took the skies to fight off wave after wave of
Speaker 2: Nazi aircraft that sought to pound Britain into submission during
Speaker 2: the summer and autumn of nineteen forty Twice. Bailed out
Speaker 2: of his Hurricane Fighter, once landing in the sea before
Speaker 2: returning to a squadron. Dismissed suggestions of bravery and heroism
Speaker 2: in the BBC article in twenty twenty, saying it was
Speaker 2: a pilot, a job to do. The main skill was lucky.
Speaker 2: Yet to be lucky no matter how good you were.
Speaker 2: For instance, my boss Sticky Lee was the best pile
Speaker 2: I've ever seen. He was shot down and killed to
Speaker 2: he had no luck. I had begged of luck. There
Speaker 2: we go. One hundred and five died at home are remarkable. Oh,
Speaker 2: the neighbor is a police officer, so the key is safe.
Speaker 2: So five thousand and a safe spereca at the neighbor's house.
Speaker 2: It's bolted to the floor, and the neighbor is a
Speaker 2: police officer. Because it'd be like that in the end times,
Speaker 2: people going door to door to get the money. Pay
Speaker 2: wave limit was eighty now it's two hundred. Someone says
Speaker 2: farmers computer system was down at the weekend and you
Speaker 2: couldn't pay by f paus or their Farmers count only
Speaker 2: by cash. Unfortunately, I don't have any cash on me,
Speaker 2: say save myself. Over one hundred dollars on Birchesses. Yes
Speaker 2: they were hacked. Who'd hacked farmers seems like a surprising
Speaker 2: thing to hack to me, just not the kind of
Speaker 2: the building you expect to be hacked. Oh well, Marcus,
Speaker 2: you may like the idea of being cash just, but
Speaker 2: in emergency events cash is invaluable. I draw cash from
Speaker 2: the machine and use a notebook, but I always stay
Speaker 2: in budget easy also stash of cash, heading and funds
Speaker 2: on term deposit. Also talking about fijoas and those people
Speaker 2: that hate them, what the things they what they think
Speaker 2: it tastes like really if they're going to describe that.
Speaker 2: We're also talking tonight about JFK because the files are
Speaker 2: at leased tomorrow, all of it. I don't know if
Speaker 2: that's going to be it's gonna be a big gotcha,
Speaker 2: or it's gonna be well, we've known all that all along.
Speaker 2: I would suspect people will find it disappointing. So there
Speaker 2: are the three discussions for tonight. It's eight past eleven.
Speaker 2: If there's something different you want to talk about, good,
Speaker 2: I can embrace that. Also it was something the same
Speaker 2: is also good. There are thoughts that the Pope will resign.
Speaker 2: Pope Francis had a letter published on Tuesday. There's link
Speaker 2: the illness has helped make more lucid term the observatory
Speaker 2: of war. They thought it was gonna be a resignation letter. Oh,
Speaker 2: by the way, how amazing is that robopen? I never
Speaker 2: knew the president had a Robopen. It's a machine that
Speaker 2: does your signature. Now it's called into the doubt the
Speaker 2: veracity of the signatures because it's not signed by the person,
Speaker 2: signed by a machine. I don't know if Luxon has
Speaker 2: a Robopen. Do you reckon?
Speaker 19: He would.
Speaker 15: Here?
Speaker 2: It's in On TikTok, Come on here on midnight.
Speaker 19: Man.
Speaker 2: Name is Marcus welcome. Oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty.
Speaker 2: It's here from you tonight. If you got something different,
Speaker 2: that's good also, but let's be hearing from you all
Speaker 2: about the cash also, is it a situation now when
Speaker 2: it starts to rain, you go and get cash. I
Speaker 2: would think probably over time that they'll get better at
Speaker 2: not having everything go down. I don't always say that.
Speaker 2: I don't necessarily know that it's based on an effect,
Speaker 2: but jump and touch one of them? Is Marcus welcome?
Speaker 2: Eleven eleven? Oh, there is reports of surface flooding in
Speaker 2: christ Church. I reckon probably that banks Pinincia has been
Speaker 2: totally slammed. Yeah, so if you got some information from
Speaker 2: christ Church, let me know about the weather there. If
Speaker 2: you're driving around as they're flooding, what are you seeing?
Speaker 2: Are you going to the money machine to get some cash?
Speaker 2: Will you need it? Marcus? My dad always had cash
Speaker 2: and a sealed jar buried in the garden. Marcus Luxen
Speaker 2: is a robopen, heavy rain, strong winds, no hail, hauls well.
Speaker 2: Christ Church east side of chrost Church got hailed twice tonight.
Speaker 2: These are good texts. Some calls would be great. Let's
Speaker 2: be hearing from you all about cash. Do you need
Speaker 2: a safe full of money at your house? Marcus Hale
Speaker 2: ever so loud in Casebrook and christ Church frightening. Never
Speaker 2: heard anything like it before, as well as wind and
Speaker 2: Gust's crazy and I don't know the suburb of Casebrook.
Speaker 2: I should look that up, but that's a new one
Speaker 2: to me. Never heard of it. To be fair, I'm
Speaker 2: going to go into the maps now. Must be far
Speaker 2: out of town if they said it wasn't getting Hale
Speaker 2: in town at all. So Casebrook, where it's hailing heavily,
Speaker 2: is between Belfast and Bishopdale and Harewood looks like it's
Speaker 2: to see me rural, but there's big fields there as well.
Speaker 2: I've never heard of the name of that, but that's
Speaker 2: interesting to me. Case Brock. That would be the north
Speaker 2: of christ very heavy hail there are. There are reports
Speaker 2: of flooding also state Higway, seventy five, Birdings Flat and
Speaker 2: Little River. No surprises. That feels always feels a bit
Speaker 2: floody there. I hope you're going all right, Anne frightening,
Speaker 2: She says, Hello markets Marcus, welcome.
Speaker 24: Yeah, this is really a strong not one's down in
Speaker 24: Christian synonym and open the windows so that there's not
Speaker 24: too much pressure in the house.
Speaker 2: Equalize you are you and christ Mark?
Speaker 24: Yeah, central christ Church synonym. The humanity is about sixty five,
Speaker 24: that means and the temperature is about twenty degrees.
Speaker 26: Celsius, so it's warm.
Speaker 24: Yeah, it's not really cold, but I opened the windows
Speaker 24: just to keep the circulation in the house. That's what
Speaker 24: I'm trying to mention before. But it's quite scary. It
Speaker 24: could could get word. It started off yeah, very very
Speaker 24: It wasn't the ones when we're so strong. But it's
Speaker 24: getting very fly in there. That might get worse. It
Speaker 24: may not.
Speaker 2: I thought it would be colder than that with the
Speaker 2: winds from the south.
Speaker 24: You think so, but I've opened the windows and doesn't
Speaker 24: feel much colder. It's just like high, ghastly winds, gorong
Speaker 24: gasty winds.
Speaker 2: You say, do you say it's twenty degrees celsius, but
Speaker 2: season Google that it's eleven degrees.
Speaker 24: It's not true. There's two readings. I've got an analog
Speaker 24: and digital one and it's shown the twenty degrees south.
Speaker 24: I'm both analog and digital reading two different devices.
Speaker 2: Is it hailing in Sydonham, No.
Speaker 24: It's just a strong not so one's it's like one
Speaker 24: day Wellington time, very strong?
Speaker 2: What directions the wind coming from?
Speaker 24: Suddenly? Trom what we mentioned?
Speaker 2: Thank you Matteiah Marcus welcome?
Speaker 7: Oh how are you?
Speaker 18: Yeah? Good?
Speaker 2: Thanks awesome.
Speaker 7: Yeah, well that block is all about on that side
Speaker 7: right now.
Speaker 2: I think that bloke was calling from Auckland.
Speaker 23: Yeah what.
Speaker 2: What Well, that's what I was asking him because yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I didn't. I thought he was pretending to be in
Speaker 2: christ Jute, which is a weird thing to do.
Speaker 7: I mean, maybe it's twenty degrees insided the part Now
Speaker 7: there's a hell of a stubble is fun? What bloody
Speaker 7: contrasted yesterday. Don Jesus, you're the weird degrees yesterday.
Speaker 2: The weird thing is I'm down on bluff and it's
Speaker 2: been about nineteen degrees. It's been a beautiful day. We
Speaker 2: haven't had the winds at all today. They must have
Speaker 2: come through yesterday or bypassed it.
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, I don't we get it. We either have
Speaker 7: the easterly or we have the southerly, and very seldomly
Speaker 7: we get the northwester. But that's suddenly that comes down
Speaker 7: the porthills can be bloody freezing, I'll tell you that much.
Speaker 2: So what's the situation?
Speaker 7: One?
Speaker 13: Have you got?
Speaker 2: Now you've got there's no flooding.
Speaker 7: Is there? I just drove through some flooding and Shirley,
Speaker 7: the Avon River is very, very high, very high. You
Speaker 7: almost think that's what durist at banks. I mean, if
Speaker 7: you looked in the red zone, that place would be
Speaker 7: an absolute mess.
Speaker 2: Well, okay, okay, so this is quite serious. How long
Speaker 2: do you think it's been raining for?
Speaker 5: Well, that's quite interesting.
Speaker 7: That's actually only been raining in the rain all day.
Speaker 7: But we had a clear morning up until about ten
Speaker 7: ten thirty and then it just it's just it's just
Speaker 7: been persistent then, and I think it's probably it's the
Speaker 7: patchy nature so with trying that rain doesn't appear that much.
Speaker 7: But what they're experiencing over at North North Canonbury Ways
Speaker 7: would be it's quite sporadic. I think.
Speaker 2: In the emogent you say that they look like the
Speaker 2: avon was up. Does it look like the emergency services
Speaker 2: are onto it? They know what's going on?
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think so. I think that it's come. There
Speaker 7: are some sort of offshoots that they can open up,
Speaker 7: Like I know they've got a that on that on
Speaker 7: the Hespit River. I know that's separate, but they can
Speaker 7: open that up and allow more water to go into
Speaker 7: that river. They've got a they've got a stop damp
Speaker 7: or like one of those steel things that stops the
Speaker 7: water going in, and they can open that up at
Speaker 7: high pressure. But yeah, bloody with you. It's not rained
Speaker 7: like this.
Speaker 20: For a long time.
Speaker 2: So when you say you still flooding at Shirley, are
Speaker 2: they onto it? Are the emergency services diverting traffic and
Speaker 2: stuff that's all happening?
Speaker 7: Well, No, to be honest, I mean it's it's the
Speaker 7: east side. Have you heard any stories about how they
Speaker 7: treat the east side.
Speaker 2: I understand what you're saying.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, yeah, that's it in a nutshell, I
Speaker 7: would imagine.
Speaker 16: Okay, Unfortunately, I mean the emergency services can only do
Speaker 16: so much. I mean you're still going to get lunatics
Speaker 16: that want to splash water all around the place, and
Speaker 16: you know, so just keep case everybody, I guess driving
Speaker 16: out there, you know, splitting around.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's very good, reporter, so I thank you for that.

Speaker 2: Cash and waterproof envelope, envelope and safe safe buried in lawn.
Speaker 2: No need for neighbor. The other thing I told you
Speaker 2: i'd read you earlier, as I've got a bit of
Speaker 2: spare time and I'm going to do this for you.
Speaker 2: I'm just going to bring this up with my computer.
Speaker 2: The first inaugur rate. This is on the back of
Speaker 2: the assassination of JFK. The first inauguration of Lyndon B.
Speaker 2: Johnson as the thirty sixth President the United States was
Speaker 2: held on Friday, November twenty second a board Air Force
Speaker 2: one at Dallas love Field following the assassination of President
Speaker 2: JFK early that day. The inauguration, the eighth non scheduled
Speaker 2: extraordinary inauguration ever take place, marked the commencement of the
Speaker 2: first term of Lyndon B. Johnson's president, goes on to say,
Speaker 2: at twelve thirty Central sentdard time in London. On November
Speaker 2: twenty second, Kinny was shot in Dallas while riding with
Speaker 2: his wife, Jacqueline and the presidential motoricayed. Vice President Johnson
Speaker 2: was riding in the car beside the President with his wife,
Speaker 2: Lady B. Johnson, and Texas Senator Ralph Yarborough. Immediate after
Speaker 2: the shots were fired, Johnson was thrown down and set
Speaker 2: on by Secret agent Rufus Youngblood, and the President's and
Speaker 2: Vice President's car sped to park On Royal Hospital. Their
Speaker 2: initial reports that Johnson might have also been shot, slightly
Speaker 2: wound in the arm, or that had been suffered another
Speaker 2: heart attack, and Missus Johnson confirmed reporters he was fine
Speaker 2: and did not suffer any injury or illness other than
Speaker 2: being shaken at what he had seen. In the hospital,
Speaker 2: Johnson was surrounded by Secret Service agents, who encouraged him
Speaker 2: to return to Washington in case he too was targeted
Speaker 2: for assassination. Johnson wished to wait until he knew of
Speaker 2: Kennedy's condition. At one twenty pm, he was told Kennedy
Speaker 2: was dead and left the hospital almost twenty minutes later.
Speaker 2: At this point, arrangements were made to provide Secret Service
Speaker 2: protection of the two Johnson daughters, and it was decided
Speaker 2: the new Present would leave on the presential aircraft because
Speaker 2: it had better communication equipment. Johnson was driven by an
Speaker 2: none marked police cutter, Dallas love Field, and kept below
Speaker 2: the car's windows level throughout the journey. The Present waited
Speaker 2: for Jaquelin Kennedy, who in turn would not leave Dallas
Speaker 2: without her husband's body to arrive aboard Air Force one.
Speaker 2: Kenny's casket was finally brought to the aircraft. That takeoff
Speaker 2: was delayed until Johnson took the oath of office. There
Speaker 2: was concern that since the Secret Service had taken the
Speaker 2: body of Kenney from Parkman Hospital against the wishes, the
Speaker 2: Dallash Medical Examiner, Earl Rose, who insisted in autopsy was required,
Speaker 2: would seek to prevent Air Force one taking off. And
Speaker 2: then President Johnson chose Federal District Judge Series, who's a
Speaker 2: long standing friend, to swear him. And so there we go.
Speaker 2: The inauguration happened on the plane with Jacqueline Kennedy there,
Speaker 2: which is a bizarre set of circumstances. Anyway, It's not
Speaker 2: going to get where we're going to get tonight, though,
Speaker 2: is it. But yeah, I've read some remarkable testimony to that.
Speaker 2: You can read more at your leisure. Anyway, it's fourteen
Speaker 2: to twelve. If you want to talk on Marcus Head
Speaker 2: on Midnight, Marcus Fhi Joe as a repulse of the
Speaker 2: taster is like biting into an old hairdresser. What a
Speaker 2: great turna turn of expression that is love. That Johnson
Speaker 2: was the first president of the United States to visit
Speaker 2: New Zealand. It's a great bit of Trevor. I never
Speaker 2: knew that. Wow, I've seen footage of him. I think
Speaker 2: up by the Big Guy the Hotel Intercontinental with protesters.
Speaker 2: Thank you for that.
