1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:04,280 Speaker 1: You're trusted home for News for its entertainments Opinion and 2 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:08,319 Speaker 1: Mike the Mic asking breakfast with the Jaguar f base 3 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:10,920 Speaker 1: cut from a different cloth News togs FB. 4 00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 2: Will you welcome today Marco Rudio's man, Mattterrell Dock in 5 00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:15,680 Speaker 2: the program with the Big Debate, the letter from the 6 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:19,079 Speaker 2: athletes to fix the transgender funding issues met, and next 7 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,639 Speaker 2: they're looking the downscale. So there's more jobs for you, 8 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 2: Graham Norton than for a catch up after it it 9 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:25,599 Speaker 2: look forward to it. Jose and Italy Rod does the 10 00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:29,240 Speaker 2: business from the Mighty UK for us, asking welcome to 11 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 2: Thursday morning, seven past six. So the big question is 12 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,839 Speaker 2: if you entered the debate tired as the pole suggests, 13 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,080 Speaker 2: did whatever that unfolded move the needle? I say no, 14 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 2: I can't help, but wonder if in time they will 15 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 2: see these two debates if in fact these two debates 16 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 2: are as formatically a mistake. Essentially, it's an interview where 17 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 2: the interviewer never follows up. You get a question, you 18 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,199 Speaker 2: whitter on for two minutes, saying whatever you want. A 19 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 2: rebuttals allowed more wittering than another question. The closest we 20 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 2: got to anyone being told or held to account. Was 21 00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 2: when Trump claimed babies were taken away to be killed. 22 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 2: One of the moderators said that there is no state 23 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 2: where that is law, which of course is true. Apart 24 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 2: from that, Trump was Trump, Harris was Harris, and I'm 25 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 2: glad I'm not American and have to choose between the two. 26 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,759 Speaker 2: And I think if I was American, I would fit 27 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 2: into the undecided category, the undecided being I don't know 28 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 2: whether I could bring myself to vote for either of them. 29 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 2: Trump's best points were around the Harris record, which is 30 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,960 Speaker 2: the Biden record. At no point has she differentiated herself 31 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,039 Speaker 2: from her current boss. So if you're not happy with 32 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,040 Speaker 2: the direction of travel, which Paul Show people aren't, then 33 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,320 Speaker 2: she isn't changing your mind. If you're a Democrat and 34 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 2: you worried about Biden and his age, she is at 35 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 2: least younger and more alert and sharper and can speak. 36 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 2: But that's also the problem. She doesn't say anything. But 37 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 2: as I suggested the other day, maybe that doesn't matter. 38 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,559 Speaker 2: Maybe you're voting on vibes because that's all she's seemingly selling. 39 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 2: As for Trump, he's insane. He repeats the record of 40 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 2: twenty sixteen through twenty twenty as a golden period of 41 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 2: perfection and jubilation, the likes of which the world has 42 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 2: never seen. His weakest point was when he was asked 43 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 2: about Obamacare. He didn't like it, even though he kept it, 44 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 2: but had some ideas about a plan that wasn't formed 45 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 2: yet going forward and would let us know when he 46 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 2: had them finalized. It's as close as I have ever 47 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 2: seen him to being completely and utterly stumped. The moderators 48 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 2: could have been AI generated, the lack of audience reaction 49 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 2: interaction closed Mike's killed it. It was not what it 50 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 2: could have been won, No one lost, nothing changed. 51 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 1: News of the world in ninety seconds. 52 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 2: As I say, if you were a Republican, you saw 53 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 2: it one way. Even if you're a daughter in law, 54 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 2: I think you had a fine night. 55 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 3: I think this was a night that was absolutely necessary 56 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 3: and I am so happy we finally got to see 57 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 3: these two people on a stage. 58 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,239 Speaker 4: Or if you're a Democrat, I thought Carma Harris said 59 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 4: a great name, and I think she showed Donald Trump 60 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 4: to be a rambling, confused man who was focused on 61 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 4: dividing us as opposed to bringing people together. 62 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 2: Or indeed, if you're right in the middle of it. 63 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 5: The polls are saying that I was I won that 64 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 5: by eighty twenty ninety. We have one here ninety two 65 00:02:58,760 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 5: to seven. 66 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 2: He doesn't have any polls. Some watching at home tweeted 67 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 2: about it. 68 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 6: I'm voting for the Kamala Harris because she fights for 69 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 6: the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion. 70 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 7: She signs off as Taylor Swift, childless cat lady. 71 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 2: Then in the UK Capital of Things one day, let 72 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 2: a lot of people go at Port Tullbertiver Night told 73 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 2: you about this yesterday and another blow to the steel industry. 74 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 8: Tata's employees and now able to express an interest in 75 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 8: the most generous voluntary redundancy package the company has ever 76 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 8: offered for a restructuring of this size, And of the 77 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 8: two thousand members of staff have expressed that interest in 78 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 8: voluntary redundancy. 79 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 2: So that makes it okay then and too an inquiry 80 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 2: has been announced into the killing of a lawyer during 81 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 2: the troubles back in the eighties. 82 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 3: The plain fact is that two decades on the commitment 83 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 3: made by the government to this House to establish an 84 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 3: inquiry and to the death of mister Finukan remains unfulfilled. 85 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 2: Finally, MELLIGAP looking to crack down on tourists behaving badly. 86 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 2: They've been already, but particularly we got the palms on 87 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 2: cheap flights and they get a bit wayward. One particular 88 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 2: issue appears to be tourists walking around naked. So the 89 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 2: campaign to get people to put clothes on has begun. 90 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:17,039 Speaker 2: They've started with a sign. The sign says dress completely. 91 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 2: There are other science. One says don't shout or turn 92 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 2: up the volume of your music. Cool place, let's use 93 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 2: the world in buzz kills in ninety little economic news 94 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 2: for you. The UK is going nowhere. At least they're 95 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 2: not going backwards. I suppose flat line for July forecast 96 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 2: of growth of zero point two percent. Didn't come in 97 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 2: the services sector upper smooth zero point one production, construction 98 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 2: production down zero point eight and construction down. Sorry, production 99 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,119 Speaker 2: down zero point eight, construction down zero point four. Better 100 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:48,039 Speaker 2: news in America CPI zero point two for August. That's 101 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,919 Speaker 2: in line with consensus annually. That makes inflation in an 102 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 2: America out two and a half percent. So there's set. 103 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 2: So that means the I'm assuming the feeders go twelve 104 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:56,600 Speaker 2: past six. 105 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 1: The mic asking bread first Bull Show podcast on Bayheart Radio, 106 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: Power by News Talk Siby. 107 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,280 Speaker 2: If you follow the money, Trump Media, which owns truth 108 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 2: social crash this morning badly. It had been going up 109 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 2: prior to the debate. This morning it fell apart, indicating 110 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,280 Speaker 2: Trump lost. Fourteen past six. Oh my gosh, Jim Jay, 111 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 2: am My Wealth, Andrew Keller her, good morning, Good MONI Mike. 112 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 2: So Contact wants MANUWAH and the regulators I'm assuming are 113 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 2: going to be involved in that's a work us through 114 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 2: it all. 115 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 9: Yes, So we had announced me yesterday that Contact has 116 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 9: entered into agreement to buy Manowa Energy. So everybody probably 117 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 9: recognizes her contactors well known, well recognized power generation from retailer. 118 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 9: Manawa might not be as recognizable, but I think people 119 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 9: out there may recognize their previous name. 120 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 10: Of Trust Power. 121 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 9: So before we talk about the details, I think you 122 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 9: have to note I guess the timing of the sort 123 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 9: of timing of this announcement that you're going to take 124 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 9: a large incumbent in generation and make it bigger at 125 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 9: a time when the cost of electricity is very much 126 00:05:57,760 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 9: front and center and plenty of debate over the impact 127 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 9: of high wholesale prices you've got the Windstone pulp closures 128 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 9: and ongoing concerns over the ability of New Zealand electricity 129 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 9: users to be able to be internationally competitive. 130 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 10: So it's quite a tricky time to bring this deal 131 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 10: to light. 132 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,919 Speaker 9: Just looking at the deal, Contact has entered into what 133 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 9: we call a scheme of arrangement to buy one hundred 134 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 9: percent of Manawa. As I said, Manawah is a renewable 135 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 9: energy generator. It's got twenty five hydro schemes around New Zealand, 136 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 9: so that's about five hundred megawats of generation capacity. But 137 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 9: very importantly, it's got an awful lot of development options 138 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 9: in wind and solar. 139 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 10: Now, looking at. 140 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 9: This deal from Contact point of view, they say they're 141 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 9: going to end up with a more diversified, more resilient 142 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:46,280 Speaker 9: business they argue will be more efficient. Manawa shareholders will 143 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 9: get a combination of cash and Contact shares. 144 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 10: Now just under eighty percent. 145 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 9: Of Manua is owned by two entities, are Infantil and 146 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,039 Speaker 9: the what's called TECT which is the tit on a 147 00:06:58,080 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 9: western Bay. 148 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 10: They have plenty community trust. 149 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 9: They are both backing the deal, so you know it's 150 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:03,840 Speaker 9: pretty much going to go. 151 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 10: Just a few comments there's a few interesting aspects of 152 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 10: the deal. 153 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 9: Infantal They don't have an ESCRA on their Contact shares, 154 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 9: which is often the case in these deals, so they 155 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 9: could sell them whenever they want to. But they're putting 156 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 9: an inviti rep onto the Contact board and they are 157 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 9: talking a long game. 158 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 10: In terms of that position. Just look at the Mnuwa 159 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 10: development projects. 160 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 9: These obviously would require funding now that may be more 161 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 9: achievable under Contact ownership. I think there's now going to 162 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 9: be questions as to how they will fund those. Contact 163 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 9: argue there are. 164 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 10: Synergies between the two companies. 165 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 9: It's effectively priced at five dollars ninety five for a 166 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 9: share from a Manowa point of view, that is a 167 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 9: very healthy premium to the last close of the Maniwa 168 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 9: share price. Contact will keep their credit rating, that's important. Yes, 169 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 9: you're right, the COMMAS Commission does need to approve the deal. 170 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 9: Contact points out that Manuwa hydro assets are complementary to 171 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 9: context existing hydro ass that's because Manawas are winter weighted. 172 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 9: Contacts are summer weighted. That's to do with rain as 173 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 9: opposed to summer snow melt. So they say that will 174 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 9: allow for more consistent supply and hopefully consistent pricing. 175 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 10: If we look at how. 176 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,119 Speaker 9: Did the market gauge this while the Contact share price 177 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 9: fell to the three percent, I think analyst will have 178 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 9: spent the last overnight crunching all the numbers. 179 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 10: Will get more commentary on that today. But the Manawas share. 180 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 9: Price up thirty three percent yesterday recognizing that premium. 181 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 10: So fascinating stuff, Mike. 182 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 2: I reckon interesting politically. Migration more people, Yeah. 183 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 10: They are. 184 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 9: It's very important in the context of the current economic 185 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 9: climate because it's been such a significant feature of the 186 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:43,559 Speaker 9: recent economic landscape, and consistent with recent months, we're seeing 187 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 9: this migration impulse moderating, so there are fewer people coming. 188 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 9: The raw number five thy three hundred seasonally adjust that's 189 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 9: for the month, seasonally just to probably around three thousand 190 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 9: for July. The nose numbers obviously get revised over the 191 00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 9: next few months, but the annual inflow now it's sixty seven, 192 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 9: and back in October twenty three we're just under one 193 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 9: hundred and forty thousand, one hundred and thirty seven. So 194 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,319 Speaker 9: now back to levels we saw in early twenty twenty three, 195 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 9: we're seeing fewer foreign arrivals. That's probably reflecting the calling 196 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,199 Speaker 9: labor market. You do need to think about the implications 197 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 9: across a range of areas. Economic growth has always been 198 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 9: flattered by increasing population. Population increase will now be moderating. 199 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 9: That does suggest lower growth the labor market. People coming 200 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 9: in had increased that pool of labor. That's not happening 201 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 9: to the same degree now. And one thing that's not 202 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 9: been talked about a lot recently, Mike, I think this 203 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,559 Speaker 9: is going to come back front and sent shortly. Government finances. 204 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 9: It's really fallen off the radar. Fewer people coming in. 205 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 9: That means lower tax take. That's not good. Just quick note, 206 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 9: tourism looks like still the numbers are in. The estate 207 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 9: looks like it's plateauing. If you want to draw a 208 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 9: line from that back to the OCR and interest rates. 209 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 10: This moderating migration. 210 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 9: Probably supported sports the case for further OCR cuts. 211 00:09:58,920 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 2: All right, one of them. 212 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 9: The US markets have handled that CPI number, they've handled 213 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 9: the debate, and they're now sort of mixed. The Dow 214 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 9: joneses down one hundred and thirty five points, which about 215 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 9: a thirty percent forty thousand, six hundred and three, But 216 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 9: the S and P five hundred and NASDAK are both up. 217 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 9: The S and P five hundred up a quarter percent 218 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 9: five to five oh nine, and the Nasdaq Tech sector 219 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 9: bouncing back up over one percent seventeen thy. 220 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 10: Two hundred elevens up one hundred and eighty five points. 221 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 9: That's all good for two one hundred lost twelve o 222 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 9: N eight one nine three point one five percent, the 223 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 9: NICK lost one and a half percent, thirty five thousand, 224 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 9: six hundred and nineteen.

People 286 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 13: think that those collars are cruel. I think is the 287 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 13: other colors that are cruel because they create dogs that 288 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:52,839 Speaker 13: misbehave you don't want to think.

People I know 302 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 2: are watching the Jeff Goldblim thing where you sort of 303 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 2: yours chaos. I will never see it because it looks 304 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 2: like bollocks, but everyone says it's really good and it's 305 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 2: well worth watching. I know people who've binge watched and 306 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 2: walked away very satisfied. So anyway, there you go, speaking satisfied. 307 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 2: You go into Briscos and you buy everything, don't you. 308 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 2: That's why they're doing so well. How come they're doing 309 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 2: so well and no one else says more? 310 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: Shortly, and the personalities the big names talk to like 311 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 1: them costing Breakfast with Bailey's real Estate, your local experts 312 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 1: across residential, commercial and rural news. 313 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 2: Togs Head been he was always going to happen, of course, 314 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 2: because the prisons are full in Britain, so overnight they 315 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 2: started releasing prisoners, hundreds of them, and one of them 316 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 2: was arrested. The moment he got out, he literally walked 317 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 2: out of Wandsworth, turning his head to the left, to 318 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 2: the right. He's looking around. He's seeing the police. The 319 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 2: police are waiting for him. So he gets himself handscuped. 320 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 2: He's literally just walked out of Wandsworth. He gets himself handcuffs, 321 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 2: He's led away to the local police station. He was 322 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 2: arrested on suspicion of rape, sexual assault, racially aggravated public 323 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 2: order offenses. So the obvious question is how come he 324 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 2: was one of the ones they let out, and that 325 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 2: was always going to unfold. So Rod a little on 326 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 2: this later on in the morning, twenty three minutes away 327 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 2: from seven and Vatican's Bank has also got itself mired 328 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 2: and controversy in Italy. S Joe mckinna to cover that 329 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 2: offer us in a couple of moments. Meantime, back here, 330 00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 2: another good period for Brisco's, the company that seemingly keeps 331 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 2: on selling no matter the economic climate. So the group, 332 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 2: which also includes of course Rebel Sport, made a net 333 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 2: property cleaning three million dollars and a half year two July. 334 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 2: So what are they doing when so much of retail 335 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 2: can't seem to do well At the moment Briscoes Group 336 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 2: Managing directors, of course, Rod Duke was with us. Rod, 337 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 2: very good morning to you, and without I'm well thanking 338 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 2: without getting into the weeds here the depreciation and the 339 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 2: tax treatment on commercial buildings, if that hadn't changed, you 340 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 2: would have in fact got an even better profit, wouldn't you. 341 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 14: Yeah, it's a one off cash ite. 342 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 10: Don't know. 343 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 2: Okay, So what's going on in retail that you do 344 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 2: well and so many others can't. 345 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 14: I think it's probably the merchandise proposition that we've got. 346 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 14: You know, we said about a long time ago to 347 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 14: get famous bur named and put them out there at 348 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 14: the right price. And it's just one of those propositions. 349 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 14: It seems to resonate with customers. 350 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 2: None of that was complicated. How come if you can 351 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 2: do it, others can't or don't. 352 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 14: Look, I guess they've founded mark position that they think 353 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 14: is sustainable and defendable, and they've just persisted at that 354 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 14: and sort of left us alone. Yeah, you're quite right. 355 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 2: So is this the bottom? Economically speaking? Do you reckon 356 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 2: or not? Or we don't just don't know. 357 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 15: Well, we're happy. 358 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 14: So you know, we saw some green shoots I think 359 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 14: not so long ago, when interest rates looks as though 360 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 14: they're plateaued, and I guess that's the first thing that 361 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 14: has to happen. It has to work its way through 362 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 14: to the suburbs, and that might take a little while, 363 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 14: but at least we've got those first signs and that's encouraging. 364 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 2: And so as do you directly link your business and 365 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 2: the toils ringing to something like the ocr. 366 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,160 Speaker 14: Or not, Well, I think it's all about how much 367 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 14: pain is being experienced in the suburbs. And clearly, you know, 368 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 14: with everything coming on top of us of them all 369 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 14: the one time, with insurances and food, inflation, utilities, bank 370 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 14: interest rates, you know, at all happening at the one 371 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 14: time makes it really, really very difficult in the suburbs. 372 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,360 Speaker 2: So you've been around a while. Where is this period 373 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,439 Speaker 2: sitting or has set in terms of things like the 374 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 2: GFC and all of the other things we've experienced. Is 375 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 2: this as bad as it's ever been or different? 376 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 14: I think it's I think personally, I think it's a 377 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:16,239 Speaker 14: little worse the GFC was, you know, with something that 378 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 14: was was sort of started elsewhere. We were still in 379 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 14: pretty good shape. We didn't have the sort of infatiary 380 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,640 Speaker 14: effect in all those items that I've just mentioned all 381 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:28,919 Speaker 14: of the one time. We do have it this time, 382 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 14: and you know, it's I think it's going to last 383 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 14: perhaps just a little bit longer. But look, we're sitting 384 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 14: on the optimistic side of things and perhaps in the 385 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:42,399 Speaker 14: run up the christmasht we'll get a little better. 386 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 2: Is there a variation within your group as to how 387 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 2: people spend and what they spend or not. 388 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:53,399 Speaker 14: We have two businesses, one which is described as discretionary, 389 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 14: which is the sporting good business, and the house where business. 390 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 14: The house with business is basically a house of staples. 391 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 14: You know, irons, toasted color cases and the like. You know, 392 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 14: when they wear out or break down and you've sort 393 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 14: of got it, you sort of go and get it. 394 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,679 Speaker 14: With sporting goods, it's one of those discretionary items that 395 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 14: you can neither stall or just make do with what 396 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 14: you've got for a little bit longer. 397 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 2: And so is Rebel hurting a bit more in that sense? 398 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:25,919 Speaker 14: Well, oddly enough, the rangers within Rebel that is a 399 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,920 Speaker 14: lot of the premium product is now available at Rebel, 400 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 14: but up until now it has not been. So Rebel's 401 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 14: actually performing very very very well. 402 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 2: Whoosh, so that's a supply thing, Yes, it is. Okay. 403 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 2: What about labor? What's your observation of labor, getting labor, 404 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 2: holding labor, the churn of staff, all of those sort 405 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 2: of things. Does that affect you and does it affect 406 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 2: you badly? 407 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 16: Yeah? 408 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 14: It does. We have found for a considerable amount of 409 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:58,199 Speaker 14: time it's been particularly difficult, you know, getting hold of 410 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 14: new staff. We managed to hold out stuff. I think 411 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 14: we paid them pretty well and it's a fun place 412 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 14: to work, but getting new staff is difficult and has 413 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 14: been for a good wile. 414 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 2: Now right, tell me hand on heart, honestly, because I 415 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,640 Speaker 2: read the reports each time they come out with Briscoes, 416 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:17,879 Speaker 2: and you say the same thing every time, after record 417 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 2: after record after record. You then gonds very difficult time. 418 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 2: So I don't know if we will or repeat this. 419 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 2: Then you go and do it. Are you toying with us? 420 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 17: Rod? 421 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,959 Speaker 14: I don't want to hide an expectation. 422 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 2: Might fair enough to so you underpromise over deliver as 423 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 2: the name of the game. 424 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 14: It's not a bad policy. 425 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 2: Very good.

They're feeling underpainted, underpaid, 503 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:30,119 Speaker 18: and overworked and really demanding more attention from the authorities 504 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 18: and in this case, demanding that the ny be sent 505 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 18: in unreal. 506 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 2: So the Vatican Bank had are they a lauren to 507 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:41,120 Speaker 2: themselves or do they operate under Italian law? 508 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 19: I think it's a bit of both. 509 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 18: I mean, we know the Vatican is a separate stage, 510 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 18: and in recent years they've overhauled the Vatican Bank to 511 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,359 Speaker 18: keep it in line with more international regulations. 512 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 19: But this is a very quirky thing. 513 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 18: The Vatican Bank is now in a new controversy a 514 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 18: to decreeing that two employees, if they fall in love 515 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 18: and want to get married, one of them must resign. 516 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 18: And it's been dubbed the Romeo and Juliet case by 517 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 18: the Catholic press. Because we have a couple who are 518 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 18: in that situation right now. They have written to the Pope. 519 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 18: They're appealing for his intervention and it just seems like 520 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 18: a very strange thing to anybody watching from the outside. 521 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 2: I think I reckon. Speaking of the Pope, is he 522 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 2: seems to be up for it. I mean, he's in 523 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 2: the middle of the Pacific and wandering around and the 524 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 2: crowds are coming out, and are you getting a lot 525 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:30,919 Speaker 2: of coverage with that back in Italy? 526 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 18: Huge coverage, huge international coverage, a lot of interest also 527 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 18: from the Americans, and a big trip to these countries. 528 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 18: As we know, he's now in Singapore on his way 529 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:48,280 Speaker 18: home tomorrow, one of the biggest, if not the longest 530 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 18: trip that he's done in his pontificate and part of 531 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 18: his whole program to reach out. 532 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 2: Because the upside of that, surely for a bloke who's 533 00:25:55,880 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 2: not well allegedly, I mean, that's some pretty serious travel. 534 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 18: Is I mean, it'll be interesting to see Mike what 535 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 18: sort of toile it takes on his health in the 536 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,120 Speaker 18: long term, because he looks so much older and obviously 537 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 18: traveling around most of the time in a wheelchair, so 538 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,360 Speaker 18: people are really keeping a close eye on his health 539 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 18: right now. 540 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 2: Hey, I've got to text from somebody the other day. 541 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 2: Can you still get it?

About two hundred thousand 563 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,359 Speaker 2: foreigners live in Bali these days, and they say that 564 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 2: they're contributing to the crime and the over development and 565 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 2: the competition for jobs, and since arriving in Bali, the 566 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 2: arrivals have surged post but you know, I mean, look, 567 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 2: we got the tourism numbers yesterday. It's still amnemic here, 568 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 2: but you've got two point nine million visitors in the 569 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 2: first half of this year alone. Sixty five percent of 570 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 2: total foreign arrivals Indonesia into Indonesia by year are go 571 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 2: to Ballei. So they've got a moratorium on new builds 572 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 2: and stuff like that. Then you looked at Melbourne yesterday. 573 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 2: You see Melbourne, mean, what a disgrace five minutes away 574 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 2: from seven. 575 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:46,880 Speaker 7: And the outs. 576 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:51,160 Speaker 1: It's the fizz with business Faber, take your business productivity 577 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 1: to the next level. 578 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,199 Speaker 2: What I did like is the approach being taken by 579 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 2: the police, which seemed to be relatively hard line. Are 580 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,919 Speaker 2: housing datably this morning core Logic. They're mapping the market data. 581 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 2: Over the year, half of the suburbs in this country 582 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 2: had a meaningful value increased good But more recently the 583 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 2: last three months you're seeing a slow down, particularly Aukland, Wellington, 584 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 2: Napian Nelson. Since June six hundred and seventy four suburbs 585 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 2: have seen property values drop about twenty five percent of 586 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 2: those dropping by at least two percent. Auckland, ninety four 587 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 2: percent of suburbs have dropped in the last three months. 588 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 2: Excuse me. Eighty percent of Hamilton's are down. Seventeen of 589 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,400 Speaker 2: twenty in Towering are down in the last quarter. Papama 590 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 2: is down by three point one. Seventy seven percent of 591 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 2: Wellington's are down, vast majority by at least a percent. 592 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 2: The most expensive suburb these days see two at one 593 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 2: point seventy six. Christ Jurich. Initially quite good before this quarter. 594 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 2: This quarter only three of eighty four suburbs went down, 595 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 2: but now fifty two in the last three months, so 596 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 2: it was looking good, started to fall apart. So you've 597 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 2: got a trend there. Dunedin, half the suburbs are down. 598 00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 2: Eight suburbs though around the country with double digit growth 599 00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 2: in the past year. Stand by for a twenty two 600 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 2: point six percent increase in value and you got it 601 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 2: Cobden and a fifteen point nine percent increase in that's right, Blaketown. 602 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 2: So the gray district is Hamming Arrowtown also doing very nicely. 603 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 2: The fifth most expensive suburb in the country. Now why 604 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:20,960 Speaker 2: wouldn't it be, I mean, when was last time you 605 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 2: went to Arrowtown and did anything other than go, oh 606 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 2: my god, how beautiful is this place? Anyway, average price 607 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 2: of a place in Narrowtown is two point four to 608 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,479 Speaker 2: five million dollars. And that's why you take your pen 609 00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 2: and go down to the river and shuffle for gold 610 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 2: to pay for your mortgage. Graham Norton after right, look 611 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 2: forward to the catch up there. Marca Ruby's man Matt 612 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 2: Terrell is back with us to break down the debate 613 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 2: last night and what we got out of that and 614 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 2: the transgender letter from the former Olympians and athletes to 615 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 2: the sports Minister Chris Bishop. Is he going to do 616 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 2: something about it? 617 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 1: We'll ask him the Breakfast Show You Can Trust, the 618 00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 1: Mic Hosking Breakfast with al Vida, Retirement Communities, Life Your Way, 619 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 1: News Talks, sa'd be. 620 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 2: I'm wanting a seven past seven So to the debate 621 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 2: one Net poll Gay But the Harris might be because of 622 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 2: this sort of thing in Springfield. 623 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 5: They're eating the dogs, the people that came in, they're 624 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 5: eating the cats, they're eating they're eating the pets. 625 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 2: It was a protic device. It probably didn't help the 626 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 2: marks that went on. Now this is the possibility apparently 627 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 2: of another Marca Rubya's former chief of staff, Matt Terrell, 628 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 2: is back with this Matt, morning to you. 629 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 20: Hey, great to be with you. 630 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 2: And did it move the needle? 631 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 20: You know, I don't think so. I think what to 632 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 20: see in the polling, and I'll take some time, but 633 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 20: I don't think this debate actually is gonna make or 634 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 20: break this election. I don't think it moved the needle much. 635 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 20: Obviously there was missed opportunities by former President Trump last night. 636 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,680 Speaker 20: But with that said, I'm not so sure, at least 637 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 20: in my view, that Vice President Harris necessarily acomplished which 638 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 20: she need to accomplished last night. But today's are lays 639 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 20: to movie voters in her direction on key issues such 640 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 20: as the economy. You know, the economy's going to really 641 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 20: drive this elections and number one issue of voters care about. 642 00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 20: If look at the polling for President Trumpet actually increased 643 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 20: his favorability on that issue after the debate in comparison 644 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 20: to post pre debate. So look, at the end of 645 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 20: the day, I think this is gonna be a race 646 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 20: that comes down to the issues. We'll see how that 647 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 20: takes shape in time will tell. 648 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 2: How does she differentiate herself from Biden and why hasn't 649 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 2: she Well. 650 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 20: It's a challenge, and why she hasn't is because it's 651 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 20: hard to do in the sense that this has been 652 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 20: the Biden Harris administration. You know, look, at the end 653 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 20: of the day, she's been a second command in this 654 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 20: administration and right now, voters are concerned and frustrated with 655 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 20: where inflation is bad. You've had nearly roughly twenty percent 656 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 20: inflation almost over the roughly past four years that the 657 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 20: Biden Harris administration has been in office. You've seen skyrocking 658 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 20: crossings at the border. The economy, inflation, border security will 659 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 20: be the top issues they are going to drive this race. 660 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 20: And to your point, in terms of separating herself from 661 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 20: the Biden administration, whence the Biden Harris administration that this 662 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 20: has been over the past roughly four years, that's almost 663 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 20: an impossible task. You saw her trying to do some 664 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 20: of that throughout this campaign, but voters know that she's 665 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 20: been in office, she's been an incumbent, and it's hard 666 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 20: to move off these issues. 667 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 2: Is it possible she could feel or her team could 668 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 2: feel this morning that she can win this thing just 669 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,160 Speaker 2: on good vibes and beta Tomorrow's and all the other 670 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 2: stuff she rolls out. 671 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 20: Well, look, I think some of that works with the 672 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 20: political bases, namely, for example, the Democrat base. I think 673 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 20: they're fired up for Vice President Harris. I think the 674 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 20: GOP base is fired up for Foreign President Trump. I 675 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 20: think the political bases are going to turn out. I 676 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 20: think this election comes down to low propensity voters and 677 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 20: just those handful of independent and undecided voters. At the 678 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 20: end of the day, it's going to be roughly forty 679 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:35,720 Speaker 20: five thousand voters, maybe one hundred thousand voters at the most. 680 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 20: They're going to decide this race. And what do they 681 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 20: care about. They care about the issues. They don't care 682 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 20: about personalities or vibes. They care about inflation, border security, 683 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 20: the economy, and right now, Foreign President Trump is pulling 684 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 20: quite well on those issues. He's actually doing better on 685 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 20: those issues than Vice President Harris. At the end of 686 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 20: the day, you might have voters out there saying, you 687 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 20: know what, I don't agree with former President Trump on everything. 688 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 20: I don't agree with every social media posts, for every 689 00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 20: comment he made during the debate or on the campaign trail, 690 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 20: But I greath mind those issues and I may vote 691 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:04,040 Speaker 20: for them based on those issues. I think a lot 692 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 20: of voters may do that. But if we have to 693 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 20: four present trumpet then in a day to win them over. 694 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 2: Always good to have you on the program. Matp preciate 695 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 2: it very much. Matt Tyrell, who is Marco Rubio's former 696 00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 2: chief of staff, let's bring it back home ten minutes 697 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 2: past seven, asking more detail to day apparently on the 698 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 2: government's health targets fiber unveiled back in March. If you remember, 699 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 2: they focused on cancer treatment, immunizations, eedy time, specialist appointments 700 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 2: and elective surgeries. Today is about how we do that, 701 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 2: how do we reach those goals? What's needed? Royal New 702 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 2: Zealand College of GP's medical director Luke Bradford with US 703 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 2: Morning Morning, Mike, broadly speaking what they're looking to do 704 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,240 Speaker 2: the government on health. Do you get it? Does it 705 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 2: seem real? Is it achievable? 706 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 16: I do get it. It makes sense to have some targets 707 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 16: that people, especially if public, can relate to and the 708 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 16: system can work towards achievable. Yes, that we're a long 709 00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 16: way off at the moment. 710 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 2: Do you shame Ritti's quoted this morning is saying he 711 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 2: can't guarantee these targets won't be gained by the sector. 712 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 2: I think the references there are people working against him. 713 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 2: Do you see that or feel that in your particular 714 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 2: area or not? 715 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 16: No, No, I don't think it's that people are working 716 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 16: against and I think it's that without the tools to 717 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 16: actually deliver them and make them achievable, people look at 718 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 16: other options. So traditionally one of the ways you manage 719 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:22,240 Speaker 16: waiting lists is to just accept less people onto them. 720 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 16: And actually that's not what the idea of the target 721 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 16: would be. It would be but people who need see 722 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 16: and are seen in a reasonable time. But one way 723 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 16: to do it is to just take. 724 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 2: Less on how much of it's about money when you 725 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:35,319 Speaker 2: talk about these tools, how much of it about straight 726 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 2: up and down hift of money versus there's inefficiencies in 727 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 2: the system that we can tweak. 728 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 16: Yeah, there's definitely an efficiency. Look at the ED thing, 729 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 16: and there is some stuff around patient flow, but a 730 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 16: lot of that is actually on how do you get 731 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 16: patients out of possible once they've been there, especially into 732 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:51,880 Speaker 16: the nursing home system, and how do you stop them 733 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,480 Speaker 16: from arriving in need in the first place. So getting 734 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,680 Speaker 16: them seen in a timely way and looked after in 735 00:34:56,719 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 16: general practice. It's not all that needs investment. That there 736 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 16: are efficiencies too that can happen. 737 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:03,879 Speaker 2: Okay, And so how do you see it from your 738 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,360 Speaker 2: side of the sector, the GP sector, and so you 739 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:08,719 Speaker 2: see more people, you treat them earlier, they don't get 740 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,280 Speaker 2: to ED. All of this seems to have been jawbone 741 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,319 Speaker 2: for about one hundred years, and yet it doesn't seem 742 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 2: to be changing, is it? 743 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 18: No? 744 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:19,800 Speaker 16: I mean, we've talked about it. The evidence is really clear. 745 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 16: It's global literature that if you look after people, we 746 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 16: have a continuity of care, a regular relationship, and you 747 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:30,360 Speaker 16: get far less admissions need for ED, less people needing 748 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 16: operations and we like. But it's a big jump to 749 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:35,320 Speaker 16: do it. People won't make that jump. 750 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 2: Do you think someone like Ritty, being from the sector, 751 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:42,560 Speaker 2: actually does get it, has a good intent or he 752 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,720 Speaker 2: knows secretly that's part of the answer, but just can't 753 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:47,160 Speaker 2: do it. What's your view? 754 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,160 Speaker 16: I think he knows it's part of the answer. He's 755 00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 16: certainly he's a GP, he's lived and worked that, but 756 00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 16: I think trying to move the system into making those 757 00:35:58,560 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 16: changes is difficult for him. 758 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 2: Are you optimistic? 759 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 16: Adall Yeah, yeah, I am, because I actually think there's 760 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 16: some really good people working in the jobs and doing 761 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 16: their best for the patients, and we're carry on delivering that. 762 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 2: All right, Look appreciate it. Look Bradford own to the 763 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:16,480 Speaker 2: Royal New Zealand College of GPS thirteen past seven, asking 764 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,320 Speaker 2: your health. We need a mindset change in this country. 765 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 2: So ACC announced yesterday that they're short of billion dollars. 766 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 2: The levees don't bring in, so you pay for the 767 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:26,960 Speaker 2: motor vehicles, you pay for the work levy, the earner's levey, 768 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,400 Speaker 2: all that sort of stuff. They're a billion dollars short, 769 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 2: a billion dollars short. They got nine hundred and thirty 770 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:35,959 Speaker 2: thousand claims from these three levee schemes. Just think about 771 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:37,759 Speaker 2: that for a moment. Nine hundred and thirty thousand people 772 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:40,880 Speaker 2: are on ACC. That's twenty percent of the entire country 773 00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:45,880 Speaker 2: is on ACC. What's the matter with us? And instead 774 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:48,640 Speaker 2: of going tell you what we could probably work more efficiently, 775 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 2: tell you what we could work with the medical fraternity 776 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 2: and look to trum costs, they just go, oh, we're 777 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 2: going to pass that on to you and you'll need 778 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,840 Speaker 2: to pay for more. One of the things they admitted 779 00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:01,160 Speaker 2: they've got several problems, long standing issues with rehab services. 780 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,799 Speaker 2: Why and why aren't they fixed them? And quote unquote 781 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:09,399 Speaker 2: the organization's inability to identify problems and make changes. Well, 782 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 2: if they can't do it, how about their sack? A 783 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 2: few people find some who can and then stop playing 784 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 2: cost plus accounting and simply passing the cost on to us, 785 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:22,759 Speaker 2: And in there lies your inflation problem. Fourteen past seven The. 786 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:26,520 Speaker 1: Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on I have Radio 787 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 1: powered by newstalksb News Talks. 788 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:31,319 Speaker 2: Seventeen past seven are methn X. We got trouble at 789 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:32,840 Speaker 2: methd X with a job, so we'll look at this 790 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:35,279 Speaker 2: out to seven thirty. Meantime, we got ourselves another open letter. 791 00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 2: What a week for open letters, it's been May. This 792 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,920 Speaker 2: one's from the fifty former athletes. They want a review 793 00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 2: of Sport New Zealand's transgender guidelines. They argue it's about fairness. 794 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,520 Speaker 2: The Sports Minister, Chris Bishop is with us. Very good 795 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 2: morning to you. 796 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:47,440 Speaker 21: Good morning. 797 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:48,240 Speaker 2: They got a point. 798 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 21: Yeah, look, I've read the letter. I think they make 799 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 21: some some fair points and we are considering updating the guidelines. 800 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:57,239 Speaker 21: The major point I think they make, which I think 801 00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 21: has some merit to it us that the guidelines don't 802 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 21: you think at the moment about sens So it's a 803 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,879 Speaker 21: document based all around inclusion and that's really important because 804 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 21: we want everyone, on a matter of their gender or 805 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:11,879 Speaker 21: how they identify, to be able to participate in community sport. 806 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:13,880 Speaker 21: That is really important. We've also got to get the 807 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 21: balance right between making sure that people feel like they 808 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:20,240 Speaker 21: can participate, but also that there's fairness in the sports 809 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 21: and safety for people participating as well. And I think 810 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 21: the document could be updated to better reflect what I 811 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 21: think the community expects from that. So having to think 812 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:34,320 Speaker 21: about that, and you know, once we've got a position 813 00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:35,839 Speaker 21: on that, we'll take it forward. 814 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 2: Would Sport New Zealand agree with you or not? 815 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 21: Well, Sport New Zealand is a government department that reports 816 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 21: to me and they're required to give effect to government policy. 817 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,279 Speaker 21: So if I asked them to update the guidelines, they 818 00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 21: will have to do that. These were developed under the 819 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:56,439 Speaker 21: last government. And to be fair to them that many 820 00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,799 Speaker 21: sports have asked for guidelines, they're grappling with the very 821 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 21: true issue about how your balance inclusion and fedness and 822 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 21: safety and all of the issues that go with participation 823 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 21: of transgender people in community sports. So sports want the guidelines. 824 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:11,960 Speaker 21: We've just got to make sure the guidelines strike the 825 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 21: right balance. 826 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,279 Speaker 2: The best point they make is about self identification. That's 827 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:16,560 Speaker 2: the beginning of the middle and the end of it. 828 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 2: That's not good enough, is it. 829 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 17: Yeah. 830 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:22,760 Speaker 21: I mean lots of sports already have policies in relation 831 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 21: to this. So for example, Triathlon New Zealand has specifically 832 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 21: adopted a code which has established an open category which 833 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 21: anyone can participate in, including transgender people. New Zealand Rugby 834 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,319 Speaker 21: League has a policy that at age thirteen and over, 835 00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,879 Speaker 21: participants have to participate in the gender they're assigned at 836 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:44,400 Speaker 21: birth SOS. Some sports are doing this quite well and 837 00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:46,840 Speaker 21: are grappling with it. Others are sort of yet to 838 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 21: kind of turn their mind to it particularly comprehensively, and 839 00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:52,439 Speaker 21: the guidelines will help in doing that. And look, they're 840 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:54,279 Speaker 21: not mandatory either. That's the other point to make is 841 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:57,360 Speaker 21: they're just guidelines, So they're just it's meant to be 842 00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 21: this helpful guidance for sports to use as they navigate 843 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,800 Speaker 21: through this issue. So I met with Save Women Sport 844 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:09,160 Speaker 21: Australasia yesterday. Their clear request was that we update the guidelines. 845 00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:11,880 Speaker 21: They've given me this letter signed by you know this 846 00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 21: the serial gust group of Olympians and former athletes, and 847 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 21: you know we can have a good put the letter 848 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 21: and you know we're listening to what the community has 849 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,240 Speaker 21: to say. And once we've got some more to say, well. 850 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:22,879 Speaker 14: We'll do that. 851 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:24,720 Speaker 2: And once you do, let me know appreciate it. Sports 852 00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 2: Minister Chris Bishop, let's get into superannuation.

I note it was led 876 00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:37,160 Speaker 2: off last week by a group that wanted what they 877 00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:40,680 Speaker 2: termed a top up i e. A pay rise for 878 00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:43,400 Speaker 2: those who couldn't save. So you can see how fraught 879 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,759 Speaker 2: that concept is from the get go. Why couldn't they save? 880 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 2: There's surely your first question, why couldn't they save? You've 881 00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 2: got forty years, and I suppose that's another aspect of 882 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 2: this whole mess. Actually has changed. Do you have forty 883 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:56,680 Speaker 2: years or do you have fifty years? I mean purple 884 00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:59,800 Speaker 2: will longer. Surely a chance to save more money, superfits 885 00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:02,440 Speaker 2: and all almost unique category of topics in this country 886 00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 2: so entrenched it won't change. It's a futile exercise if 887 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 2: you keep bringing it up, only to be beaten down 888 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 2: by the time. Onlored belief that for whatever reason, if 889 00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:13,160 Speaker 2: you get to sixty five, you are owed something via 890 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 2: the state you paid your taxes. Of course, your taxes 891 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:20,080 Speaker 2: have been well and truly spent. For most people, whatever 892 00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:22,840 Speaker 2: you handed over is long gone, and in that is 893 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:25,400 Speaker 2: one of the great sadnesses of the New Zealand economic story. 894 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:27,680 Speaker 2: We have very few net creditors, but a lot of 895 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:30,440 Speaker 2: net debtors. People who actually pay more to the system 896 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:33,640 Speaker 2: than take from it are very rare. Indeed, when I 897 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,919 Speaker 2: started working, excuse me, in nineteen eighty two, I took 898 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:39,719 Speaker 2: out a scheme whereby if you put a few dollars 899 00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:42,799 Speaker 2: a week aside, you would become a millionaire by the 900 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,840 Speaker 2: time you got to sixty. And I'd completely forgotten about it, 901 00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:48,440 Speaker 2: mainly because I stopped paying because I worked out it 902 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:51,239 Speaker 2: was bollocks. Anyway, I was reminded of this the other night. 903 00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:53,399 Speaker 2: I got a text text came through from an old 904 00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 2: girlfriend who had, when we were together, taken out a 905 00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:01,040 Speaker 2: similar policy, but she'd stuck with it. Forty years later, 906 00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:05,800 Speaker 2: she is about to collect one hundred and six thousand dollars, 907 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:08,760 Speaker 2: So not quite a millionaire and not really a stunning 908 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 2: return on investment. But what I'd worked out all those 909 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 2: years ago was the government were not to be part 910 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:16,200 Speaker 2: of my retirement. Why would they be. Governments let you down, 911 00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:19,120 Speaker 2: Governments change rules, Governments have their own interests at heart, 912 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:21,839 Speaker 2: not yours. So I saw to myself, Am I lucky? No? 913 00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 2: Not really? Did I work hard? 914 00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:24,000 Speaker 19: Yes? 915 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:25,759 Speaker 2: Do I care what the retirement age is? 916 00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:26,000 Speaker 10: No? 917 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:27,640 Speaker 2: Do I care what the rules are? 918 00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:27,840 Speaker 12: No. 919 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,040 Speaker 2: That's the value of charting your own course and not 920 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:34,320 Speaker 2: being behold in two overlords pasking Mike fortunate to be 921 00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:36,400 Speaker 2: a patient at the same practice Luke Bradford works. What 922 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 2: an exceptional group of doctors. That's very good to hear that, Mike. ACC. 923 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,440 Speaker 2: They should start with collecting up their loaned rehab equipment. 924 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 2: A good friend has an exercycle in a home for 925 00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 2: the past two years, never returned, so family members now 926 00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:48,760 Speaker 2: using and it saves on the gym fiecea a picture. 927 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:51,400 Speaker 2: There's a lot of that, Mike, with respect to ACC. 928 00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,799 Speaker 2: Why not just mandate that every employer will have to 929 00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:57,839 Speaker 2: take out insurance for workplace injuries and manage them through 930 00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:00,400 Speaker 2: that insurance policy, because that's America and we'd like to 931 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 2: be America. And the premiers go through the roof and 932 00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:04,640 Speaker 2: then it gets factored and do your pay. I'm not 933 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:06,279 Speaker 2: saying it's a bad idea. I'm just saying that's why 934 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:08,719 Speaker 2: they would argue they don't do it. Mike, acc has 935 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:10,719 Speaker 2: got billions in reserve. What's going on, rob The reason 936 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:13,239 Speaker 2: they don't touch reserves is because they're reserves and they 937 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 2: live off the interest of those reserves. And that's the 938 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:18,359 Speaker 2: whole points. Like the superannuation scheme, Mike just did three 939 00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:21,399 Speaker 2: great weeks in Italy. Two espressos each morning. This goes 940 00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:24,360 Speaker 2: back to Joe who's in Capri. Two espressos each morning 941 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 2: for less than four euro, So a couple of euro 942 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:30,280 Speaker 2: per two peroni for lunch, per two peroni for lunch 943 00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 2: for under eight euro each day. Great value. And with 944 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 2: the sun and thirty degrees, what can you do? You 945 00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:38,480 Speaker 2: don't tell me what you do for elevenses, and you 946 00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:40,680 Speaker 2: certainly don't tell me about your evening drinking habits. 947 00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:42,800 Speaker 6: I'm reading, and your pre lunch drinks as well three. 948 00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 2: Pre lunch drinks as well, And I'm really interested in 949 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:47,319 Speaker 2: evening drinking habits and know what you're going on there, 950 00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:48,920 Speaker 2: so don't just give me there. I had a couple 951 00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:50,400 Speaker 2: of coffees and a couple of beers. A person who 952 00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:53,400 Speaker 2: has a couple of beers at lunch on holiday doesn't 953 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:57,240 Speaker 2: stop at lunch. Do I speak from experience? I couldn't 954 00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 2: possibly say so. In a couple of moments, meth and X. 955 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:02,720 Speaker 2: Last time I looked, they were flicking off gas around 956 00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:05,160 Speaker 2: the country to help us out of this particular crisis. 957 00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:07,359 Speaker 2: Now they're laying people off. So the big long term 958 00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:11,200 Speaker 2: picture of industrial New Zealand is not looking particularly flash. 959 00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:12,239 Speaker 2: So we'll have a look at this in the next 960 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:14,480 Speaker 2: half hour of the program. Then we will get our 961 00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:17,160 Speaker 2: gift cards. Yet will deal with that. There's a house 962 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:19,839 Speaker 2: I've got to tell you about this in one roof 963 00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:22,040 Speaker 2: this morning, and Graham Norton for you after eight. 964 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:28,719 Speaker 1: The big News, Bold opinions, the mic asking breakfast with 965 00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 1: the Jaguar f base cut from a different cloth, News 966 00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:33,080 Speaker 1: tog zedb. 967 00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:35,120 Speaker 2: Recent piece to be written in the Herald this morning. 968 00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:37,600 Speaker 2: This ongoing scrap between I don't know New Zealand Inc. 969 00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:39,319 Speaker 2: I guess you would call it a mean. Specifically the 970 00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:42,280 Speaker 2: government and some of these big tech players for this article. 971 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:46,680 Speaker 2: It's Google. Their tactics include threatening to not renew existing 972 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:49,240 Speaker 2: contracts with media companies. So this is the old business 973 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:52,000 Speaker 2: of whereby in New Zealand media wants these tech players 974 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 2: because they take material they didn't create put it on 975 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:57,160 Speaker 2: their platforms. They want us to pay some dough. We'll 976 00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:59,279 Speaker 2: want them to pay some dough. The government is I think, 977 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:02,759 Speaker 2: reluctantly got involved. This was neighlyet started by Labor. I've 978 00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 2: said on this program many many times, it's going nowhere. 979 00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:07,640 Speaker 2: It can go nowhere. It's never been successful anywhere in 980 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:09,920 Speaker 2: the world. They've run into all sorts of trouble in Canada. 981 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:12,279 Speaker 2: It's a mess currently in Australia and I don't think 982 00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:14,440 Speaker 2: we're going to do anything better. So anyway, read that 983 00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 2: this morning. But then you get to Australia with the 984 00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:21,920 Speaker 2: revelation yesterday, and this is why these people are so 985 00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:26,279 Speaker 2: disliked and not trusted. Facebook admitted in front of an 986 00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:31,960 Speaker 2: inquiry in Australia yesterday to scraping every Australian adult uses 987 00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:35,120 Speaker 2: public photos and posts and What did they do that 988 00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:38,160 Speaker 2: for so they could train their AI? Was there an 989 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:38,880 Speaker 2: opt out clause? 990 00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:39,000 Speaker 18: No? 991 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:41,879 Speaker 2: Are there rules around the world that say you can't 992 00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:42,640 Speaker 2: do that sort of thing? 993 00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 15: Yes? 994 00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:46,040 Speaker 2: In Europe there are? So do they do it in Europe? 995 00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:46,200 Speaker 10: No? 996 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 2: Do they do it in Australia? Yes? Why do they 997 00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 2: do it in Australia because there are no laws? So 998 00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 2: two questions are so technically they're not breaking the law, 999 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:55,520 Speaker 2: you can ask the question, why hasn't the government been 1000 00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:56,920 Speaker 2: on top of that put a law in place so 1001 00:46:56,960 --> 00:46:59,799 Speaker 2: that sort of stuff isn't scraped. Two, you can ask 1002 00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:03,399 Speaker 2: the in this case Facebook, do they morally feel good 1003 00:47:03,400 --> 00:47:06,959 Speaker 2: about themselves knowing full well that there are laws around 1004 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 2: the world that don't allow them to do this? But 1005 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:11,640 Speaker 2: in Australia because there isn't they feel free just to 1006 00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:14,839 Speaker 2: be able to wander and grab the privacy issues, take 1007 00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:18,120 Speaker 2: them away and train their AI? And what does that 1008 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:21,959 Speaker 2: say about them morally? As a corporate twenty one minutes 1009 00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:26,200 Speaker 2: away from eight and that's before it gets a island 1010 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:31,560 Speaker 2: and Apple and twenty five or twenty six billion dollars 1011 00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:34,200 Speaker 2: in taxes to get another court case anyway. Meantime, in 1012 00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:36,480 Speaker 2: a week where origional New Zealand is getting whacked. We 1013 00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:39,360 Speaker 2: now got Methinics proposing to downsize to a one plant 1014 00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:41,480 Speaker 2: operation job set to go here. The company puts the 1015 00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:44,480 Speaker 2: blame on the poor gas outlook. Former president CEO of 1016 00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:47,160 Speaker 2: Methnex Corporation, Bruce aikins with us on all of this. Bruce, 1017 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:48,080 Speaker 2: very good morning to you. 1018 00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:49,520 Speaker 17: Good morning. 1019 00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:51,840 Speaker 2: Make that deal that was struck the other day between 1020 00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:54,040 Speaker 2: Methdics and the power companies to help us out over 1021 00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:57,600 Speaker 2: this period, is that tied in in any way, shape 1022 00:47:57,680 --> 00:47:58,799 Speaker 2: or form, do you think or not? 1023 00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:02,640 Speaker 17: No, I don't think so. And let me emphasize I'm 1024 00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:06,520 Speaker 17: not here speaking on behalf of methodics. I'm really I'm 1025 00:48:06,560 --> 00:48:09,640 Speaker 17: just an interested citizen who knows something about the energy 1026 00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:13,520 Speaker 17: metrics and yoursell I think what we've been observing in 1027 00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:16,560 Speaker 17: the last few months is just short term fluctuations, and 1028 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,520 Speaker 17: they always happen in the market. So I don't think 1029 00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:21,920 Speaker 17: I think there's much noise and much ado about nothing. 1030 00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:25,520 Speaker 17: I think the big deal, Mike is we lack a 1031 00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:31,560 Speaker 17: long term coherent energy strategy. And if you think about 1032 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:34,160 Speaker 17: where does our energy come from and what did our 1033 00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:37,719 Speaker 17: supply come from, they're all very very long term decisions. 1034 00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,840 Speaker 17: If you want to build a new dam to create hydroelectricity, 1035 00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:45,799 Speaker 17: if you want to build a gas house station, or 1036 00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:50,240 Speaker 17: a geo thermal firestation or a wind farm, they take many, 1037 00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:54,520 Speaker 17: many years in planning and construction and commissioning, and many 1038 00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:57,200 Speaker 17: hundreds of millions of dollars. So they're very big long 1039 00:48:57,280 --> 00:49:03,120 Speaker 17: term decisions. And I think when we decided to UH 1040 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:07,000 Speaker 17: to promote renewable energy, which I think is an admirable 1041 00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:09,480 Speaker 17: thing to do, something we should all support and it 1042 00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:13,799 Speaker 17: makes I think economic and environmental sense. The mistake we 1043 00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:18,400 Speaker 17: made was to not recognize as a very long transition 1044 00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:22,160 Speaker 17: and we should have thought that through. What was the 1045 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:26,000 Speaker 17: transitional fuel that we wanted to use, and I think 1046 00:49:26,040 --> 00:49:27,280 Speaker 17: it should have been natural gas. 1047 00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:29,200 Speaker 15: What did we do? 1048 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:33,080 Speaker 17: We went and ban the exploration of natural gas and 1049 00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:36,080 Speaker 17: basically poured cold water over the any opportunity we have 1050 00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:39,360 Speaker 17: to use natural gas as a transition. Puel to me, 1051 00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:42,520 Speaker 17: that's the big long term issue that this country faces. 1052 00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:44,799 Speaker 2: Couldn't agree more. Were you in charge of methodics when 1053 00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:46,560 Speaker 2: that decision was made by Jasinda. 1054 00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:50,080 Speaker 17: Ad No no no no no, I'd retired long since 1055 00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:54,080 Speaker 17: along before that. Unfortunately, so no no I had no, no, 1056 00:49:54,239 --> 00:49:57,120 Speaker 17: any particular insight into that decision. What I think it 1057 00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:00,279 Speaker 17: was it was it was an ideological that it was them. 1058 00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:03,799 Speaker 17: And you know, here we have the irony that the 1059 00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:08,719 Speaker 17: rest of the world is improving their emissions characteristics by 1060 00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 17: shutting down coal fired power stations and replacing them with 1061 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:16,800 Speaker 17: natural gas burning power stations, and here we're they're in 1062 00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:20,640 Speaker 17: the opposite. We're shutting down whatever natural gas capacity we had, 1063 00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:24,600 Speaker 17: and we're importing coal from Indonesia to run to run 1064 00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:25,560 Speaker 17: the Hunting power station. 1065 00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:26,280 Speaker 2: It's insane. 1066 00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:29,799 Speaker 17: And you know, we need that, we need the coal 1067 00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:33,280 Speaker 17: that is keeping us keeping the lights on. But it's 1068 00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 17: it's complete stupidity that we've allowed this to happen and 1069 00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:42,360 Speaker 17: we didn't think through the consequences of of banning the 1070 00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:43,680 Speaker 17: exploration on natural gas. 1071 00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:46,319 Speaker 2: To argument, well, one argument the Labor Party put forward 1072 00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:49,080 Speaker 2: to that, they say, where it doesn't matter whether we're 1073 00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:51,440 Speaker 2: not looking, when we were looking, there was nothing defined 1074 00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:52,120 Speaker 2: true or not. 1075 00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:56,880 Speaker 17: Oh that's no, that's that's just silly. Really, it's you know, 1076 00:50:57,120 --> 00:50:59,319 Speaker 17: natural gas is not easy to find, so on the 1077 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,480 Speaker 17: first dollars of you know, you. 1078 00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:03,880 Speaker 22: Drill a lot of dry wells and before before you 1079 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:07,440 Speaker 22: find things and uh, you know, there've been you know, 1080 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:12,120 Speaker 22: several very large discoveries in the Taranaki basin over. 1081 00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:15,400 Speaker 17: The last sixty or seventy years. The biggest one was 1082 00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:18,040 Speaker 17: Maui of course, and then you know Polkour is probably 1083 00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:20,839 Speaker 17: the second biggest. And you know, so those are two 1084 00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:23,960 Speaker 17: discoveries and all that time and you you've been drilling 1085 00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:27,840 Speaker 17: wells and spending you know, many many hundreds of millions 1086 00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:30,760 Speaker 17: of dollars looking for natural gas. So it's not easy 1087 00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:35,120 Speaker 17: to find. What you need is a committed explorer who's 1088 00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:37,600 Speaker 17: prepared to you know, bring the ridge to your zone 1089 00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:39,880 Speaker 17: and spend the hundreds of millions of dollars, have a 1090 00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:44,319 Speaker 17: very long term view, and then if you're drilling up wells, 1091 00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 17: you'll find you'll find natural gas. You know, there's there's 1092 00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:51,399 Speaker 17: wonderful story out of the North Sea that the when 1093 00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:54,600 Speaker 17: before they discovered natural gas there, they drilled hundreds of 1094 00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:57,600 Speaker 17: wells and they're on the verge of giving up, and 1095 00:51:57,640 --> 00:51:59,960 Speaker 17: then the very last well that I think BP drill, 1096 00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:04,160 Speaker 17: they hit a pocket of natural gas. And then of 1097 00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:06,880 Speaker 17: course the rest of his history that Morse has been 1098 00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:08,760 Speaker 17: a prolific producer ever since. 1099 00:52:08,960 --> 00:52:10,960 Speaker 2: Exactly Bruce Good and so I appreciate it very much. 1100 00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:13,440 Speaker 2: Lask to talk to you. Bruce Akin, former president CEO 1101 00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:18,799 Speaker 2: of Methodics. It is well, I might have trouble at home. 1102 00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:20,360 Speaker 2: More in a moment sixteen two. 1103 00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:26,200 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 1104 00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:26,920 Speaker 1: by News Talks. 1105 00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:29,440 Speaker 2: It'd be thirteen away from it. So a couple of 1106 00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:31,440 Speaker 2: the things I do that annoy my wife. One of 1107 00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:34,399 Speaker 2: them is I send her cars, pictures of cars, not 1108 00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:37,680 Speaker 2: just random cars, cars that are currently for sale as 1109 00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:39,960 Speaker 2: a sort of a thought start, a conversation starter over 1110 00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:42,239 Speaker 2: say lunch, something like that. And the other thing I 1111 00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:44,759 Speaker 2: do when they're not cars, it's houses. And that's a 1112 00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:47,600 Speaker 2: shared joy between us, to be fair, I think, because 1113 00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:50,120 Speaker 2: we're constantly looking at houses and moving houses and doing 1114 00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:51,719 Speaker 2: all that sort of stuff. So the perfect house came 1115 00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:54,560 Speaker 2: across my plate the other day. It's a twenty two 1116 00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:58,239 Speaker 2: Monaco drive and you'll find that in Cromwell, and not 1117 00:52:58,280 --> 00:53:00,279 Speaker 2: that we were looking specifically to move to cross Well. 1118 00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:04,400 Speaker 2: But the advantage of it was it was at Highlands. 1119 00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:07,320 Speaker 2: This is a house at a racetrack. Are you joining 1120 00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:10,680 Speaker 2: the dots? Not only was this a house at a racetrack, 1121 00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:13,840 Speaker 2: but it Well initially started out as a house that 1122 00:53:13,840 --> 00:53:17,399 Speaker 2: could hold about eight cars. It currently holds thirteen. Yet 1123 00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:20,560 Speaker 2: more dots are being joined. Not only that, not only 1124 00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:24,040 Speaker 2: can it hold thirteen cars, it's got a lift and 1125 00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:27,440 Speaker 2: you can take a car from the bottom floor to 1126 00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:32,280 Speaker 2: the lounge and you can have your car in the lounge. 1127 00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:37,919 Speaker 2: So obviously I forwarded that particular listening to my wife. 1128 00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:40,880 Speaker 6: It's no different really to those houses in Paranui that 1129 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:41,799 Speaker 6: are on the. 1130 00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:45,440 Speaker 2: Same thing, on the precise precisely with a hangar, with 1131 00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:48,520 Speaker 2: a planary, exactly the same thing. So I thought we'd 1132 00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:52,839 Speaker 2: have some interesting discourse over lunch, which we did. It 1133 00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:54,920 Speaker 2: involved me not moving to Cromwell, not buying twenty two 1134 00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:57,879 Speaker 2: Monaco Drive, and basically putting that dream to bed. 1135 00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:01,360 Speaker 6: What about just getting a lift and your existing house? 1136 00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:05,520 Speaker 2: Funnily enough, Glenn, I will tell you another story about 1137 00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:08,799 Speaker 2: that another day. Anyway, This morning, to help me out, 1138 00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:11,800 Speaker 2: I open up, as I always do every morning, one roof, 1139 00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:17,640 Speaker 2: and the headline this morning is Mike Hosking, please buy 1140 00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:22,879 Speaker 2: my house. You know you will love it. That's the headline, 1141 00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:25,719 Speaker 2: and Mark Giton, I'll read you from the article. Why 1142 00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:29,960 Speaker 2: wouldn't I? It's good reading one roof, Mark Geiton wants 1143 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:33,760 Speaker 2: Mike Hosking to buy his house. He thinks Mike Hosking 1144 00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:37,640 Speaker 2: would be interested. Why, says the article, because it overlooks 1145 00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:40,720 Speaker 2: Highland's Motorsport Park and houses a smart racing car collection 1146 00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:44,200 Speaker 2: in the upstairs lounge. Mike Hosking says, Mike giton in 1147 00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:47,000 Speaker 2: one roof this morning, to be read by anyone who 1148 00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:49,560 Speaker 2: can click open one roof.

Here's some very nice cars, and he likes 1151 00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:57,799 Speaker 2: Highland Motorsport Park as well. He would be a very 1152 00:54:57,880 --> 00:54:59,800 Speaker 2: good contender to buy this house. 1153 00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:04,040 Speaker 6: So are they saying that because they actually want you 1154 00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:07,200 Speaker 6: specifically to buy it, or are they just using you 1155 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:11,080 Speaker 6: as some kind of marketing tool without your permission? Are 1156 00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:13,880 Speaker 6: any kind of the Facebook scams that we've seen in 1157 00:55:13,880 --> 00:55:14,280 Speaker 6: the past. 1158 00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:15,520 Speaker 2: Oh no, they want me to buy the house. 1159 00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:18,560 Speaker 6: Quinn, Well, I know that's what you think. Definitely, I'm 1160 00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:20,080 Speaker 6: just trying to take a more objective. 1161 00:55:19,760 --> 00:55:22,680 Speaker 2: View objective about this, Quin they want to They're. 1162 00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:24,919 Speaker 6: Basically they're basically turning you into a meme. 1163 00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:26,040 Speaker 2: It's my dream house. 1164 00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:28,360 Speaker 6: And before you know it, you know, you'll be super 1165 00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:33,840 Speaker 6: composed over pictures of dolphins and people will be saying, 1166 00:55:34,080 --> 00:55:35,520 Speaker 6: I am a lesbian. 1167 00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:38,400 Speaker 2: So have no reason. Today I'm going to have another conversation, 1168 00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:40,279 Speaker 2: a little bit of discourse over lunch today with my 1169 00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:43,000 Speaker 2: wife to see whether the ground is shifted in any way, 1170 00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:44,840 Speaker 2: shape or form. If it hasn't, have a look at 1171 00:55:44,840 --> 00:55:45,080 Speaker 2: the house. 1172 00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:46,680 Speaker 6: Do you want to bet on whether it has or not? 1173 00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:50,799 Speaker 6: You often you asked me, do you want to bet? 1174 00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:52,160 Speaker 6: And that's what I will take. 1175 00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:56,560 Speaker 2: Can I just suggest that the price for what you 1176 00:55:56,640 --> 00:56:01,479 Speaker 2: get is more than reasonable. I think it's a very 1177 00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:02,680 Speaker 2: very well priced. 1178 00:56:02,440 --> 00:56:04,280 Speaker 6: You know it doesn't include the cars, right. 1179 00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:08,520 Speaker 2: Well, everything's negotiable, Glenn, surely, for goodness sake, anyway, look 1180 00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:10,480 Speaker 2: at it. Wonder if suit what you think? Nine away from. 1181 00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:13,160 Speaker 10: Eight the misty rest with. 1182 00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:18,319 Speaker 2: Like try using the phrase my current wife. I find 1183 00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:21,320 Speaker 2: it has an interesting reaction, but does put them on notice? 1184 00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:26,960 Speaker 2: That's not funny? Sex Away from Ete Hope for the 1185 00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:30,160 Speaker 2: Unclaimed Gift Vouchery Government Members bill past its third reading, 1186 00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:32,759 Speaker 2: so that becomes law, meaning expiry dates will soon be 1187 00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:34,920 Speaker 2: extended to three years. It is thought that one in 1188 00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:37,160 Speaker 2: every five are not used, which is a total of 1189 00:56:37,160 --> 00:56:40,280 Speaker 2: ten million bucks annually consuming. New Zealand campaign manager Jessica 1190 00:56:40,320 --> 00:56:43,560 Speaker 2: Walker is with us on this, Jessica, good morning, Good morning. 1191 00:56:43,680 --> 00:56:46,120 Speaker 2: Does it solve a problem? Yeah? 1192 00:56:46,160 --> 00:56:48,319 Speaker 23: I think this is a great step forward. We were 1193 00:56:48,320 --> 00:56:51,440 Speaker 23: actually pushing for a five year minim expiry, but you 1194 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:53,360 Speaker 23: know what we're happy with. Three is much better than 1195 00:56:53,400 --> 00:56:56,080 Speaker 23: one we've got right now, which is no expiry, which 1196 00:56:56,160 --> 00:56:58,080 Speaker 23: is obviously not a great situation to be in for 1197 00:56:58,120 --> 00:56:59,800 Speaker 23: a hell of a lot of people that find themselves 1198 00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:01,800 Speaker 23: with that they can't actually spend. 1199 00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:05,680 Speaker 2: Indeed, how do people leave it so long? And therefore 1200 00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:08,080 Speaker 2: it becomes a problem And is. 1201 00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:12,279 Speaker 23: That only really of course is an element of personal responsibility, 1202 00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:14,640 Speaker 23: but you know, people are busy, and because there's no 1203 00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:17,760 Speaker 23: minimum expiry, we hear from people who've got gift cards 1204 00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:20,120 Speaker 23: for their birthday whatever, and some of these have got 1205 00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:22,040 Speaker 23: three months on them, and it's you know, I think 1206 00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:24,480 Speaker 23: it's totally reasonable to expect if you get a gift card, 1207 00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:26,600 Speaker 23: then you're going to have you know, at least a year. 1208 00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:28,000 Speaker 23: And what we what we're going to see now is 1209 00:57:28,040 --> 00:57:31,360 Speaker 23: three years, which is great. But consistency and clarity we 1210 00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:33,160 Speaker 23: think is key. So people are going to know, you 1211 00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:34,800 Speaker 23: know's great, I've got this. I can stick it in 1212 00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:36,840 Speaker 23: my wallet and I'll get around to using it eventually. 1213 00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:38,520 Speaker 23: And I think that, you know, when we're looking at 1214 00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:41,640 Speaker 23: three months, six months, it's just not feasible. And really 1215 00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:44,000 Speaker 23: it's just a gift to the retailer of our service provider, 1216 00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:46,760 Speaker 23: literally money for nothing. So it's great to see that ending. 1217 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:48,920 Speaker 2: And the industry will buy I mean, I know they've 1218 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:51,040 Speaker 2: got no choice, it's the law, but broadly they'll buy 1219 00:57:51,080 --> 00:57:53,200 Speaker 2: into it, and therefore you won't have a hassle. 1220 00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:55,280 Speaker 23: Do you think No, I don't think so. And you 1221 00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:59,080 Speaker 23: know Australians bought this this beafs of lawing in twenty nineteen, 1222 00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:01,240 Speaker 23: so it brings them in with them. So right now 1223 00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:03,400 Speaker 23: we've got this crazy scenario where if you go a 1224 00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:06,800 Speaker 23: tiki tech about you in Australia you get three years 1225 00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:08,000 Speaker 23: on that and if you get one here you get 1226 00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:10,760 Speaker 23: eighteen months. And so it's going to start selling this 1227 00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:12,320 Speaker 23: like that. If you get it bout it, then it's 1228 00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:13,520 Speaker 23: going to be it's going to be the same no 1229 00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:14,360 Speaker 23: matter where you laugh. 1230 00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:16,720 Speaker 2: Oh good on you, Jessica, appreciate it.

So I was very 1290 01:00:47,080 --> 01:00:48,720 Speaker 7: happy to take a year off. 1291 01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:51,840 Speaker 2: I was very I was reading something about you. Somebody 1292 01:00:51,880 --> 01:00:54,520 Speaker 2: asked what's it like to be famous? And I thought 1293 01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:58,440 Speaker 2: your aunt's was brilliant, and that was it's like being 1294 01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:01,920 Speaker 2: where you are now. Other words, in small town Island, 1295 01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:03,360 Speaker 2: everybody knows everybody. 1296 01:01:04,680 --> 01:01:05,040 Speaker 10: It is. 1297 01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:08,360 Speaker 7: It's like because somebody asked me in when I was 1298 01:01:08,360 --> 01:01:10,800 Speaker 7: at the little town here Bantry, and I was giving 1299 01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:12,880 Speaker 7: a talk and somebody asked me, what's the like being famous? 1300 01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:16,000 Speaker 7: It's such a kind of sweet, innocent question and there 1301 01:01:16,040 --> 01:01:18,120 Speaker 7: should be an answer to it, but of course, what 1302 01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:20,160 Speaker 7: is the answer to what it's like being famous? And 1303 01:01:20,200 --> 01:01:23,120 Speaker 7: then it suddenly struck me it's like bantry, where you know, 1304 01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:28,000 Speaker 7: you try to avoid people in the supermarket and everyone 1305 01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:31,600 Speaker 7: knows your business. So it's just like that. I think 1306 01:01:31,640 --> 01:01:33,320 Speaker 7: that's kind of why I like it back here in 1307 01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:38,640 Speaker 7: West Cork, because yes, everyone knows me, but I know 1308 01:01:38,720 --> 01:01:40,920 Speaker 7: a lot of them, so it has a kind of 1309 01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:44,880 Speaker 7: a logic to it, whereas if you're walking down Oxford 1310 01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:46,840 Speaker 7: Street in London and people know who you are, that's 1311 01:01:46,960 --> 01:01:48,360 Speaker 7: just nuts, that's just weird. 1312 01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:50,520 Speaker 2: Is it a nice place to be where you can 1313 01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:52,160 Speaker 2: be yourself and relax? 1314 01:01:53,960 --> 01:01:55,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, absolutely, And it is kind of a I think 1315 01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:58,720 Speaker 7: part of that, Like my job is slightly more exotic 1316 01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:02,720 Speaker 7: because i'm Grayham off the Tevision, but walking around I'll 1317 01:02:02,760 --> 01:02:06,200 Speaker 7: know that that's Margarets who takes the money at the butcher's. 1318 01:02:07,040 --> 01:02:10,040 Speaker 7: That's the guy who you know works in the garage, 1319 01:02:10,080 --> 01:02:11,920 Speaker 7: you know, so I have a kind of a reference 1320 01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:15,120 Speaker 7: to them as well. And I've been coming here now 1321 01:02:15,160 --> 01:02:18,040 Speaker 7: for I don't know, like twelve thirteen years or something, 1322 01:02:18,400 --> 01:02:21,600 Speaker 7: so you know me and if they say hello, it 1323 01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:23,840 Speaker 7: doesn't seem weird. It's because they know me. 1324 01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:25,880 Speaker 2: Now, that's a nice way to be. When does your 1325 01:02:25,920 --> 01:02:28,440 Speaker 2: television show come?

We'll be 1328 01:02:35,720 --> 01:02:40,520 Speaker 7: back at the end of September? I think here we're 1329 01:02:40,560 --> 01:02:42,800 Speaker 7: on air on the twenty seven, twenty eighth or something 1330 01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:44,400 Speaker 7: like that, so I don't know when it will reach 1331 01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:45,320 Speaker 7: you guys. 1332 01:02:45,760 --> 01:02:48,240 Speaker 2: So where are you at literally as you talked to 1333 01:02:48,320 --> 01:02:50,840 Speaker 2: us in this early September morning? Do you know when 1334 01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:53,400 Speaker 2: you're recording who's on the show? Have you got a 1335 01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:55,920 Speaker 2: question line sorted out? Have you started your research? 1336 01:02:57,840 --> 01:02:58,120 Speaker 10: Oh? 1337 01:02:58,200 --> 01:03:07,600 Speaker 7: Mike, no, no, no, there are guest books. But I'm 1338 01:03:07,640 --> 01:03:10,280 Speaker 7: not going to say because that just jinxes it. You know, 1339 01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:12,480 Speaker 7: it's actually it is a really starry lineup for our 1340 01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:14,520 Speaker 7: first showback. It's a very star lineup. But I don't 1341 01:03:14,520 --> 01:03:17,440 Speaker 7: want to jinx it by saying who's on, because if 1342 01:03:17,480 --> 01:03:19,600 Speaker 7: I do that, they will all you know, you know 1343 01:03:19,640 --> 01:03:22,040 Speaker 7: how to treat this is they will all cancel the 1344 01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:26,600 Speaker 7: minute I say who they are. And we always record 1345 01:03:26,640 --> 01:03:29,240 Speaker 7: on a Thursday night, so I know that's happening, and 1346 01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:32,080 Speaker 7: I won't really get into what we're asking them until 1347 01:03:32,320 --> 01:03:35,600 Speaker 7: the Wednesday in the office all day Wednesday, and that's 1348 01:03:35,640 --> 01:03:39,080 Speaker 7: when we kind of go through the questions and things. 1349 01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:40,920 Speaker 7: But I'm very much I don't know what you're like. 1350 01:03:40,920 --> 01:03:44,240 Speaker 7: I'm very much what's the thing I have to focus on. 1351 01:03:44,440 --> 01:03:47,920 Speaker 7: What's the next thing I focused on? So right now 1352 01:03:48,120 --> 01:03:50,680 Speaker 7: I'm just about launch into kind of the world of 1353 01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:53,160 Speaker 7: book promo.

So 1356 01:04:00,680 --> 01:04:04,720 Speaker 7: that's where my head's at. And then then at the 1357 01:04:04,800 --> 01:04:06,960 Speaker 7: end of that, I'll go, oh, yeah, there's a chat show. 1358 01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:08,920 Speaker 7: What do I need to know about that? I just 1359 01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:11,200 Speaker 7: I don't worry about the next thing. I just worry 1360 01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:13,000 Speaker 7: about the thing fantastic. 1361 01:04:13,240 --> 01:04:16,520 Speaker 2: When you interview people, I mean, I don't know who 1362 01:04:16,520 --> 01:04:18,800 Speaker 2: these people are, but you will have interviewed them before. 1363 01:04:19,480 --> 01:04:21,760 Speaker 2: Do you look to get something different out of it 1364 01:04:21,960 --> 01:04:24,680 Speaker 2: or do you look to reacquite yourself in that familial 1365 01:04:24,800 --> 01:04:28,160 Speaker 2: way that brings the magic that has made you so successful, 1366 01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:30,760 Speaker 2: and a. 1367 01:04:30,760 --> 01:04:34,080 Speaker 7: Bit of both. You know, if someone was good before, 1368 01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:36,200 Speaker 7: you'd like them to be good again. If they weren't 1369 01:04:36,280 --> 01:04:39,280 Speaker 7: very good before, you'd like them to be better. Actually, 1370 01:04:40,400 --> 01:04:43,160 Speaker 7: this first show back, I think there's at least one, 1371 01:04:43,280 --> 01:04:46,560 Speaker 7: I think two big stars who we've never had before. 1372 01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:47,200 Speaker 2: Wow, and. 1373 01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:53,280 Speaker 7: One of them I saw her during the summer doing 1374 01:04:53,480 --> 01:04:56,120 Speaker 7: a Q and A after a film, and I'd never 1375 01:04:56,200 --> 01:04:58,000 Speaker 7: really seen her being interviewed before. 1376 01:04:58,160 --> 01:04:59,720 Speaker 10: And I would have. 1377 01:04:59,640 --> 01:05:01,760 Speaker 7: Been before I saw this Q and A, I would 1378 01:05:01,760 --> 01:05:03,480 Speaker 7: have been like, oh, is that going to be okay? 1379 01:05:03,840 --> 01:05:07,080 Speaker 7: She was so funny and good, So hopefully that's what 1380 01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:09,760 Speaker 7: we'll get on Thursday night at the end of September. 1381 01:05:09,800 --> 01:05:11,400 Speaker 2: All right, listen, hold on there a couple of moments, 1382 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:12,960 Speaker 2: so I'll come back and talk about your book shortly. 1383 01:05:12,960 --> 01:05:15,360 Speaker 2: Graham Norton is whether it's twelve past eight. 1384 01:05:16,240 --> 01:05:20,240 Speaker 1: The Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeart Radio 1385 01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:21,640 Speaker 1: powered by News Talk. 1386 01:05:21,560 --> 01:05:23,960 Speaker 2: Zip B Talk.

I 1391 01:05:32,080 --> 01:05:34,600 Speaker 2: did him the other week and I'd never done him before, 1392 01:05:34,680 --> 01:05:36,520 Speaker 2: and we were working on getting them on for two 1393 01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:40,280 Speaker 2: years and so I've been around long enough now to 1394 01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:42,800 Speaker 2: it doesn't bother me. And you know, we just chatting 1395 01:05:42,800 --> 01:05:45,479 Speaker 2: all that. But I got I was on edge. I thought, 1396 01:05:45,560 --> 01:05:49,240 Speaker 2: I hope this goes well as it turns out it did. 1397 01:05:49,880 --> 01:05:51,040 Speaker 7: Do you brilliant? 1398 01:05:51,120 --> 01:05:51,280 Speaker 15: Yeah? 1399 01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:53,120 Speaker 2: Well yeah, I mean you don't care. You'll never say it, 1400 01:05:53,280 --> 01:05:56,280 Speaker 2: but do you do you go through that same thing. 1401 01:05:57,880 --> 01:06:01,439 Speaker 7: No, absolutely, you know, particularly and particularly the ones you've 1402 01:06:01,480 --> 01:06:03,720 Speaker 7: worked for. You know, if somebody just falls into your lap, 1403 01:06:03,760 --> 01:06:06,040 Speaker 7: you kind of go, oh so, but you know, somebody 1404 01:06:06,120 --> 01:06:09,800 Speaker 7: like Julia Roberts. We had tried to get Julia Roberts 1405 01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:14,040 Speaker 7: for you know, decades, really, you know, and then finally 1406 01:06:14,120 --> 01:06:17,960 Speaker 7: it's happening and we realized it was only I think 1407 01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:21,480 Speaker 7: after we booked it, we realized she'd never done a 1408 01:06:21,560 --> 01:06:22,560 Speaker 7: UK talk show before. 1409 01:06:22,560 --> 01:06:22,720 Speaker 17: Wow. 1410 01:06:23,200 --> 01:06:25,840 Speaker 7: Ever, not even in the beginning of her career, she 1411 01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:31,160 Speaker 7: never did one. And and so you think, oh god, 1412 01:06:31,320 --> 01:06:33,680 Speaker 7: you know, is there a reason she's never done a 1413 01:06:33,800 --> 01:06:38,240 Speaker 7: UK talk too? And of course I'm an idiot because 1414 01:06:38,760 --> 01:06:41,720 Speaker 7: when she sat down on the couch, you realize why 1415 01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:45,440 Speaker 7: she's such a huge star. I mean, just charisma to 1416 01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:50,400 Speaker 7: burn the audience, or just entranced by her. They just 1417 01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:53,000 Speaker 7: loved everything about her. But she was great with the audience. 1418 01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:55,200 Speaker 7: You know, you kind of got oh, you know, yes, 1419 01:06:55,240 --> 01:06:58,880 Speaker 7: you're a movie star. But she hadn't lost whatever it 1420 01:06:59,120 --> 01:07:01,000 Speaker 7: was that it made her sorry. She was still able 1421 01:07:01,040 --> 01:07:03,840 Speaker 7: to totally engage with an audience, you know. And in 1422 01:07:03,920 --> 01:07:06,360 Speaker 7: little breaks in the filming, she didn't talk to me, 1423 01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:08,640 Speaker 7: she didn't talk to Tom Hanks or share. She was 1424 01:07:08,680 --> 01:07:11,840 Speaker 7: talking to the audience, and you know, cracking jokes with them. 1425 01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:16,160 Speaker 7: And I was so impressed by her. Yeah, and and 1426 01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:18,760 Speaker 7: and that's you know that thing about never meet your heroes. 1427 01:07:18,840 --> 01:07:21,240 Speaker 7: It is lovely when you meet your heroes, and they 1428 01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:23,280 Speaker 7: turned out to be everything you'd hoped. 1429 01:07:23,120 --> 01:07:25,680 Speaker 2: For exactly right, we must talk about the book. And 1430 01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:28,280 Speaker 2: this is what you do so incredibly well. You start 1431 01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:30,520 Speaker 2: by talking about general matters and then you slip the 1432 01:07:30,520 --> 01:07:32,280 Speaker 2: main reason for the interview in. And this is what 1433 01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:34,760 Speaker 2: I'm doing right now, Graham. As it turns out, so 1434 01:07:37,080 --> 01:07:39,800 Speaker 2: I don't think anyone noticed, so so so, Frankie, now 1435 01:07:39,800 --> 01:07:44,680 Speaker 2: here's here's the thing. It's it's over many years, decades 1436 01:07:44,720 --> 01:07:47,800 Speaker 2: in fact, how much research goes in. How do you 1437 01:07:47,880 --> 01:07:49,880 Speaker 2: do the research and how do you know it's accurate? 1438 01:07:51,400 --> 01:07:54,720 Speaker 7: Well, I mean, how do you know it's act. We 1439 01:07:54,800 --> 01:07:58,120 Speaker 7: have to believe what you read research. You have to 1440 01:07:58,160 --> 01:08:01,640 Speaker 7: go Okay, there are some in the world, there are 1441 01:08:01,720 --> 01:08:05,680 Speaker 7: some facts, there are things we can rely on. So 1442 01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:10,840 Speaker 7: that's how I know it's accurate. The research. I sort 1443 01:08:10,840 --> 01:08:12,120 Speaker 7: of knew that I was going to have to do 1444 01:08:12,160 --> 01:08:15,560 Speaker 7: some and i'd never really I mean, I've done a 1445 01:08:15,560 --> 01:08:17,559 Speaker 7: bit of googling when I was writing before, but never 1446 01:08:17,640 --> 01:08:20,559 Speaker 7: proper research, and so I wasn't sure if I'd enjoy it, 1447 01:08:20,560 --> 01:08:23,240 Speaker 7: would it be a bit like homework, And turns out 1448 01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:25,920 Speaker 7: I did enjoy it. I mean, I think part of 1449 01:08:25,960 --> 01:08:28,320 Speaker 7: the key was that I was writing about worlds that 1450 01:08:28,360 --> 01:08:30,439 Speaker 7: I was interested in. It's kind of you know, there's 1451 01:08:30,479 --> 01:08:33,880 Speaker 7: a bit of theater, there's a bit of the art 1452 01:08:33,960 --> 01:08:40,439 Speaker 7: world in the sixties and seventies, and I was interested 1453 01:08:40,520 --> 01:08:43,400 Speaker 7: in those. But to do kind of the deep dive reading, 1454 01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:46,920 Speaker 7: I found it all fascinating. I think that the thing 1455 01:08:47,040 --> 01:08:50,200 Speaker 7: you've got to do then is not put everything you've 1456 01:08:50,280 --> 01:08:53,160 Speaker 7: learned in your book. You know, sometimes you read a 1457 01:08:53,160 --> 01:08:55,519 Speaker 7: book and you're, yeah, we get it, you need some 1458 01:08:55,560 --> 01:09:00,880 Speaker 7: research back off. So I tried to use it as 1459 01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:04,600 Speaker 7: lightly as as I could. And also, you know, you 1460 01:09:04,600 --> 01:09:07,280 Speaker 7: don't want to turn into a dinner party bar with 1461 01:09:07,400 --> 01:09:11,439 Speaker 7: kind did you know that? So I'm trying not to 1462 01:09:11,439 --> 01:09:13,599 Speaker 7: be that guy. And the good thing is, of course, 1463 01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:16,559 Speaker 7: as fast as I learned all of this research, I 1464 01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:19,479 Speaker 7: forgot it, So I hopefully I won't be the dinner 1465 01:09:19,479 --> 01:09:20,720 Speaker 7: party boar fantastic. 1466 01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:22,760 Speaker 2: Somebody in a piece of right the other day was 1467 01:09:22,800 --> 01:09:25,320 Speaker 2: suggesting that you quit radio. Since we've last talked, you 1468 01:09:25,400 --> 01:09:28,559 Speaker 2: quit radio, and you've got this busy schedule and you're 1469 01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:30,559 Speaker 2: wandering around doing your tour in the book and stuff 1470 01:09:30,560 --> 01:09:35,400 Speaker 2: that we're seeing now the evolution of Graham Norton the novelist. 1471 01:09:36,200 --> 01:09:37,280 Speaker 2: Is there something in that? 1472 01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:44,160 Speaker 7: I mean, I suppose the fewer things you do, the 1473 01:09:44,160 --> 01:09:48,200 Speaker 7: more focused you become. So you know, I was doing 1474 01:09:48,240 --> 01:09:51,000 Speaker 7: the radio. I did the radio for thirteen years, so 1475 01:09:51,680 --> 01:09:54,880 Speaker 7: to have my weekends back, I'm just seeing it as 1476 01:09:55,720 --> 01:09:59,599 Speaker 7: the evolution of Graham Norton not doing anything at the weekend. 1477 01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:04,720 Speaker 7: But I maybe there's a bit of I'm taking the 1478 01:10:04,720 --> 01:10:08,040 Speaker 7: books more seriously. I think I'm getting better. This is 1479 01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:13,000 Speaker 7: novel five, and I think it's the one I enjoyed 1480 01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:16,920 Speaker 7: writing the most, and it seems to be landing in 1481 01:10:16,960 --> 01:10:20,719 Speaker 7: a different way the kind of the early readers. And 1482 01:10:20,920 --> 01:10:24,800 Speaker 7: you know those people are those people who get early 1483 01:10:24,840 --> 01:10:28,320 Speaker 7: copies of the books and seem more enthused about this 1484 01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:32,080 Speaker 7: book than they have the others. So yeah, we'll see, 1485 01:10:32,120 --> 01:10:34,200 Speaker 7: we'll see what happens. This is almost a weird time 1486 01:10:34,600 --> 01:10:37,960 Speaker 7: where before the book comes out, because with lots of 1487 01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:40,920 Speaker 7: the other things I do, I can pretend I don't care. 1488 01:10:41,120 --> 01:10:42,880 Speaker 7: I can go, you know, oh, stupid show, We're doing 1489 01:10:42,880 --> 01:10:44,679 Speaker 7: another one next week. It didn't matter it was bad, 1490 01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:47,200 Speaker 7: or you know, radio show. I don't care, I'll be 1491 01:10:47,439 --> 01:10:50,280 Speaker 7: back on tomorrow. It doesn't matter. With a book, you 1492 01:10:50,360 --> 01:10:54,840 Speaker 7: can't pretend you don't care, even if it's the word 1493 01:10:55,080 --> 01:10:58,640 Speaker 7: and you know, for three hundred pages it took you 1494 01:10:58,680 --> 01:11:01,400 Speaker 7: a long time to type that word. You just can't 1495 01:11:01,439 --> 01:11:03,360 Speaker 7: pretend that you didn't put some work in. So I 1496 01:11:03,479 --> 01:11:06,920 Speaker 7: did put work in, which means that I guess I 1497 01:11:06,920 --> 01:11:10,800 Speaker 7: feel differently about books than I do about anything else 1498 01:11:10,840 --> 01:11:13,679 Speaker 7: I do. You know, you have to take it personally. 1499 01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:16,759 Speaker 2: Are you more enthused about this book? Are you sitting 1500 01:11:16,760 --> 01:11:18,360 Speaker 2: there in the middle of it, thinking, actually, this is 1501 01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:19,400 Speaker 2: turning out quite well. 1502 01:11:22,320 --> 01:11:26,800 Speaker 7: Yes, But then I think I always think that, and 1503 01:11:26,840 --> 01:11:29,400 Speaker 7: then it's only, you know, it's only when the book 1504 01:11:29,920 --> 01:11:32,439 Speaker 7: arrives in the world people go, yeah, you were wrong. 1505 01:11:33,840 --> 01:11:37,599 Speaker 7: So we'll see how this one lands. But like I say, 1506 01:11:37,840 --> 01:11:41,240 Speaker 7: so far, it feels kind of different. It feels like 1507 01:11:41,720 --> 01:11:45,439 Speaker 7: it's people are reacting in a different way. 1508 01:11:45,680 --> 01:11:48,760 Speaker 2: Fantastic, well, isn't it? As always? It's lovely to catch 1509 01:11:48,840 --> 01:11:50,880 Speaker 2: up and talk with you, and good luck with the book. 1510 01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:53,000 Speaker 2: And is the wine still going well? By the way, 1511 01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:54,599 Speaker 2: you're still consuming plenty of. 1512 01:11:54,520 --> 01:11:59,360 Speaker 7: It, and I'm certainly a consumer, and I'm told it's 1513 01:11:59,400 --> 01:12:02,439 Speaker 7: flying off the shelves. We met up at the Boys 1514 01:12:02,439 --> 01:12:05,320 Speaker 7: in New York and did our tasting there, which was 1515 01:12:05,520 --> 01:12:11,200 Speaker 7: very glamorous. Have grapes will travel. So yeah, it's still 1516 01:12:11,240 --> 01:12:11,759 Speaker 7: gone strong. 1517 01:12:11,760 --> 01:12:13,680 Speaker 2: I think, fantastic. We'll enjoy the rest of you some 1518 01:12:13,800 --> 01:12:15,040 Speaker 2: of good luck with the book, good luck with the 1519 01:12:15,040 --> 01:12:17,040 Speaker 2: television show.

See it's one of those things you've 1558 01:13:57,160 --> 01:13:59,519 Speaker 2: never thought of until you have the possibility of a 1559 01:13:59,560 --> 01:14:02,160 Speaker 2: lift from your garage to bring it up into the lounge, 1560 01:14:02,240 --> 01:14:04,960 Speaker 2: and suddenly your life changes forever. Be much easier, though, 1561 01:14:05,000 --> 01:14:09,759 Speaker 2: Mike to put the chair in the garage slightly spoil sportish, 1562 01:14:09,800 --> 01:14:12,400 Speaker 2: but actually it does make some sense. So they're letting 1563 01:14:12,400 --> 01:14:14,800 Speaker 2: people out of prison as we speak in Britain because 1564 01:14:14,800 --> 01:14:16,479 Speaker 2: there are too many people in prison, so they let 1565 01:14:16,479 --> 01:14:19,800 Speaker 2: them out early. This is causing, perhaps not surprisingly, some 1566 01:14:19,880 --> 01:14:23,240 Speaker 2: consternation and angst. Rod Little as with as out of 1567 01:14:23,240 --> 01:14:27,360 Speaker 2: the UK after the News, which is next heard NEWSTALKSB. 1568 01:14:29,880 --> 01:14:33,240 Speaker 1: Setting the news agenda and digging into the issues the 1569 01:14:33,439 --> 01:14:38,200 Speaker 1: Mic Hosking Breakfast with Alveda, Retirement Communities, Life Your Way, 1570 01:14:38,320 --> 01:14:39,519 Speaker 1: News Talks head B Mike. 1571 01:14:39,560 --> 01:14:41,559 Speaker 2: I love the Graham Norton Sharez.

Of course, given the result of 1581 01:15:06,080 --> 01:15:08,280 Speaker 2: the election, the Labor Party have the numbers. But is 1582 01:15:08,320 --> 01:15:10,680 Speaker 2: this over? Is there a rebellion on? How do they 1583 01:15:10,760 --> 01:15:11,439 Speaker 2: live this down? 1584 01:15:12,000 --> 01:15:13,880 Speaker 15: I think there is a rebellion on on, a rebellion 1585 01:15:13,920 --> 01:15:16,200 Speaker 15: which is probably worse than because kids Darma thought it 1586 01:15:16,240 --> 01:15:20,519 Speaker 15: would be. He won with ease, But the number of 1587 01:15:20,600 --> 01:15:27,160 Speaker 15: MPs who either voted against, which was John Trickett, or abstained, 1588 01:15:27,200 --> 01:15:30,640 Speaker 15: which was another forty of people or fifty, and the 1589 01:15:30,760 --> 01:15:34,160 Speaker 15: number you decided not to turn up because they had 1590 01:15:34,200 --> 01:15:36,200 Speaker 15: a bad tummy ache or wanted to watch the end 1591 01:15:36,240 --> 01:15:39,400 Speaker 15: of the Chase with Bradley Walsh, or whatever other excuse 1592 01:15:39,439 --> 01:15:42,840 Speaker 15: they gave, suggest that there was a real feeling within 1593 01:15:42,920 --> 01:15:45,960 Speaker 15: the party, not just on the left, not just on 1594 01:15:46,000 --> 01:15:49,280 Speaker 15: the usual suspects such as John McDonald on the hard left, 1595 01:15:50,120 --> 01:15:52,760 Speaker 15: that there was a real feeling that this was not 1596 01:15:52,880 --> 01:15:58,120 Speaker 15: really bad optics, but also just that that you would 1597 01:15:58,320 --> 01:16:01,240 Speaker 15: be able to give this almoust pay rise to the 1598 01:16:01,240 --> 01:16:04,800 Speaker 15: young doctors and indeed to the train drivers and then say, oh, 1599 01:16:04,840 --> 01:16:07,080 Speaker 15: we haven't got enough money to give the pensioners a 1600 01:16:07,120 --> 01:16:10,160 Speaker 15: winter fuel payment. So I think there is a problem there. 1601 01:16:10,479 --> 01:16:13,479 Speaker 15: And as one labor MP said to me, you know, 1602 01:16:13,560 --> 01:16:16,400 Speaker 15: only a couple of days ago, this is going to 1603 01:16:16,439 --> 01:16:18,599 Speaker 15: be a fight all the way for the next five years. 1604 01:16:18,720 --> 01:16:20,600 Speaker 15: There's going to be a lot of rebellions. 1605 01:16:20,920 --> 01:16:23,840 Speaker 2: How much political capital do you think he's burnt with 1606 01:16:23,960 --> 01:16:25,759 Speaker 2: pensioners with this policy. 1607 01:16:26,400 --> 01:16:29,800 Speaker 15: None, because no pensioners voted for him. And I think 1608 01:16:29,840 --> 01:16:33,280 Speaker 15: this was his calculation that you know, whereas the young doctors, 1609 01:16:33,360 --> 01:16:36,880 Speaker 15: I think the poll suggests that sixty five percent of 1610 01:16:37,000 --> 01:16:39,960 Speaker 15: doctors are on the left and would therefore have voted 1611 01:16:40,040 --> 01:16:45,160 Speaker 15: labor or greed or lived. Then if people over the 1612 01:16:45,200 --> 01:16:47,719 Speaker 15: age of sixty five have been the only people allowed 1613 01:16:47,760 --> 01:16:50,000 Speaker 15: to vote in the last election, and if only that 1614 01:16:50,080 --> 01:16:52,920 Speaker 15: have been true, then the Conservative Party would have won 1615 01:16:52,960 --> 01:16:58,360 Speaker 15: with a majority of seventy eight pensioners overwhelmingly vote conservative. 1616 01:16:58,960 --> 01:17:04,040 Speaker 15: Is that it is the biggest, single distinguishing mark that 1617 01:17:04,120 --> 01:17:08,320 Speaker 15: the pensioners vote conservative and young people don't labor. 1618 01:17:08,680 --> 01:17:11,680 Speaker 2: Okay, does it give an indication? I suppose you give 1619 01:17:11,720 --> 01:17:13,599 Speaker 2: it in your first answer, But there's a give an indication. 1620 01:17:13,640 --> 01:17:16,160 Speaker 2: When you've got a majority as large as his, there's 1621 01:17:16,200 --> 01:17:19,320 Speaker 2: going to be a pile of stuff that people who 1622 01:17:19,360 --> 01:17:20,920 Speaker 2: never thought they were going to be MP's are going 1623 01:17:20,920 --> 01:17:23,160 Speaker 2: to have to be facing explained to their constituents. And 1624 01:17:23,200 --> 01:17:24,320 Speaker 2: it doesn't feel very late. 1625 01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:29,559 Speaker 15: Yeah, that undoubtedly is going to happen. And there are 1626 01:17:29,560 --> 01:17:33,120 Speaker 15: a lot of a lot of people who who probably 1627 01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:35,960 Speaker 15: didn't imagine that they were going to be MP's frankly, 1628 01:17:36,400 --> 01:17:38,720 Speaker 15: and who suddenly is such as a guy who I 1629 01:17:38,800 --> 01:17:42,639 Speaker 15: stood against a very very decent blow, a young lad 1630 01:17:43,320 --> 01:17:46,720 Speaker 15: who clearly didn't expect to get in but did get 1631 01:17:46,760 --> 01:17:48,880 Speaker 15: in and now at the age of twenty seven twenty 1632 01:17:48,920 --> 01:17:55,759 Speaker 15: eight is representing his constituency in Parliament. So Keir Starmer 1633 01:17:55,880 --> 01:17:58,559 Speaker 15: does have a bit of a job to win those 1634 01:17:58,640 --> 01:18:02,800 Speaker 15: people over properly for the party. The left is still 1635 01:18:02,880 --> 01:18:07,320 Speaker 15: very strong in the Labor Party, and you know it's 1636 01:18:07,360 --> 01:18:10,240 Speaker 15: not just the left at the moment, two are complaining. 1637 01:18:09,920 --> 01:18:13,160 Speaker 2: Right, So if that's controversial, how controversial is the letting 1638 01:18:13,200 --> 01:18:14,800 Speaker 2: out of prisoners. I mean, if the prisons are full, 1639 01:18:14,840 --> 01:18:16,639 Speaker 2: the prisons are full, so they let them out overnight. 1640 01:18:16,680 --> 01:18:20,000 Speaker 2: My favorite was the bloke who left Wandsworth to literally 1641 01:18:20,080 --> 01:18:22,120 Speaker 2: walk out the door and be met by the police 1642 01:18:22,120 --> 01:18:25,839 Speaker 2: who arrested him on suspicion of ripe six assault, racially 1643 01:18:25,880 --> 01:18:29,559 Speaker 2: aggravated public order offenses, to which everybody asked, how come 1644 01:18:29,600 --> 01:18:31,200 Speaker 2: he was one of the people they let out in 1645 01:18:31,200 --> 01:18:31,840 Speaker 2: the first place. 1646 01:18:32,040 --> 01:18:34,479 Speaker 15: Well, I think you hit the nail on the head 1647 01:18:34,600 --> 01:18:37,479 Speaker 15: in two ways. Firstly, if the prisons are full, something 1648 01:18:37,520 --> 01:18:39,680 Speaker 15: has to be done about it. And so what they 1649 01:18:39,680 --> 01:18:42,160 Speaker 15: did was left two thousand prisoners, two thousand or so 1650 01:18:42,240 --> 01:18:47,400 Speaker 15: prisoners out early. So in a way, what else could 1651 01:18:47,400 --> 01:18:51,679 Speaker 15: they do? But secondly, that's where you hit the nail 1652 01:18:51,680 --> 01:18:54,440 Speaker 15: on the head, which is that there will be revealed 1653 01:18:54,920 --> 01:18:57,680 Speaker 15: over the next week or so a whole host of 1654 01:18:57,760 --> 01:19:01,960 Speaker 15: horrible little strokes who have done really violent, dreadful things. 1655 01:19:02,479 --> 01:19:06,320 Speaker 15: And this will play again, particularly to people who don't 1656 01:19:06,400 --> 01:19:09,160 Speaker 15: usually vote labor, it has to be said. But it 1657 01:19:09,200 --> 01:19:13,760 Speaker 15: will be deeply unpopular, and it will it will dense 1658 01:19:13,800 --> 01:19:16,559 Speaker 15: Starmer a little bit. I think there is a general 1659 01:19:16,640 --> 01:19:20,439 Speaker 15: understanding that something needed to be done, you know, But 1660 01:19:21,400 --> 01:19:23,800 Speaker 15: it's in the detail. It's in the detail. It's when 1661 01:19:24,320 --> 01:19:26,880 Speaker 15: it's when you suddenly see a tree hardy jump into 1662 01:19:26,960 --> 01:19:30,160 Speaker 15: a Lamborghidie and drive away from ones with prison. That's 1663 01:19:30,360 --> 01:19:32,240 Speaker 15: that's when people start getting a bit. 1664 01:19:32,200 --> 01:19:36,200 Speaker 2: Angry, exactly. Congratulations on using the word scrots too, by 1665 01:19:36,240 --> 01:19:39,320 Speaker 2: the way, just real quick, generic and bed and Knock 1666 01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:41,439 Speaker 2: does it look given the second bite yesterday? 1667 01:19:41,439 --> 01:19:41,640 Speaker 16: Does it? 1668 01:19:41,720 --> 01:19:43,760 Speaker 2: Ginrick and Bednock? Will they be the two who go 1669 01:19:43,840 --> 01:19:44,799 Speaker 2: to the party membership? 1670 01:19:45,040 --> 01:19:47,400 Speaker 15: I suspect so, which is a bit sad because the 1671 01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:50,160 Speaker 15: guy with a bit of original thought, Tom tougan hat 1672 01:19:50,560 --> 01:19:52,320 Speaker 15: looks as if he's probably going to go out next 1673 01:19:52,320 --> 01:19:55,920 Speaker 15: time around, and so the battle will be between Robert 1674 01:19:56,000 --> 01:20:00,599 Speaker 15: Jenrick and Keerry Badanock. And then it's very very clear 1675 01:20:00,640 --> 01:20:03,000 Speaker 15: who will win, and that's Kerry bad Enough. 1676 01:20:03,040 --> 01:20:05,000 Speaker 2: All right, mate, go well and we'll catch up next week. 1677 01:20:05,040 --> 01:20:07,439 Speaker 2: Appreciate it very much. Rod Little out of the UK 1678 01:20:07,520 --> 01:20:10,479 Speaker 2: for you. It's already seventeen to nine the. 1679 01:20:10,720 --> 01:20:15,000 Speaker 1: Like Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by 1680 01:20:15,040 --> 01:20:15,840 Speaker 1: News Talks. 1681 01:20:15,560 --> 01:20:18,519 Speaker 2: At b As the ongoing scrap with well Tech, I 1682 01:20:18,560 --> 01:20:20,320 Speaker 2: mentioned the piece and the Herald should read about in 1683 01:20:20,360 --> 01:20:22,800 Speaker 2: the ongoing scrap with Google in this particular country and 1684 01:20:22,800 --> 01:20:25,120 Speaker 2: paying for details from the media, et cetera, et cetera. Anyway, 1685 01:20:25,320 --> 01:20:29,719 Speaker 2: they lost another case in Europe this week. They've been fined. 1686 01:20:29,760 --> 01:20:31,960 Speaker 2: It's two point four billion euro so let's call it 1687 01:20:32,080 --> 01:20:35,680 Speaker 2: five billion dollars. It went through all the courts. All 1688 01:20:35,680 --> 01:20:39,639 Speaker 2: the stuff gets appealed and so they're disappointed. But anyway, 1689 01:20:39,640 --> 01:20:43,040 Speaker 2: that's that. The far more interesting case is the Apple case. 1690 01:20:43,080 --> 01:20:45,000 Speaker 2: And you may well remember this because this goes back 1691 01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:48,599 Speaker 2: to twenty sixteen. Apple had a deal with the Irish government. 1692 01:20:49,080 --> 01:20:52,439 Speaker 2: Ireland has been very very successful in terms of attracting 1693 01:20:52,479 --> 01:20:56,599 Speaker 2: corporates there with low tax rates, and they in fact 1694 01:20:56,600 --> 01:20:58,799 Speaker 2: so successful are running a surplus at the moment. Anyway, 1695 01:20:58,800 --> 01:21:01,360 Speaker 2: they had a deal with Apple and the structure that 1696 01:21:01,439 --> 01:21:05,439 Speaker 2: EU didn't like because THEEU argued that nobody else got 1697 01:21:05,479 --> 01:21:08,120 Speaker 2: offered the same tax structure and that wasn't fair. So 1698 01:21:08,200 --> 01:21:10,400 Speaker 2: it was one of these unusual circumstances in which the 1699 01:21:10,439 --> 01:21:15,320 Speaker 2: European courts got involved. Apple defended themselves. Ireland were on 1700 01:21:15,400 --> 01:21:18,000 Speaker 2: Apple's site, so in other words, Apple were going, no, 1701 01:21:18,200 --> 01:21:19,960 Speaker 2: it's cool, We've got to deal with the Irish. The 1702 01:21:19,960 --> 01:21:21,639 Speaker 2: Irish were going, no, it's cool, We've got to deal 1703 01:21:21,640 --> 01:21:23,800 Speaker 2: with Apple. The European's going, well, we're in charge here, 1704 01:21:24,040 --> 01:21:25,920 Speaker 2: which is a very good insight into why you should 1705 01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:28,400 Speaker 2: never join a large club, because before you know it, 1706 01:21:28,439 --> 01:21:31,040 Speaker 2: you can't make your own rules. Be that as it may. 1707 01:21:32,160 --> 01:21:36,960 Speaker 2: Apple lost, which meant, ironically that Ireland won because the 1708 01:21:37,000 --> 01:21:41,479 Speaker 2: tax bill was twenty five billion dollars, and so Apple 1709 01:21:41,520 --> 01:21:43,120 Speaker 2: once again they appealed all the way up to the 1710 01:21:43,120 --> 01:21:46,639 Speaker 2: top of the European court chain, and yesterday they lost. 1711 01:21:46,680 --> 01:21:49,040 Speaker 2: Apple's once again disappointed, and they're going to have to 1712 01:21:49,040 --> 01:21:51,080 Speaker 2: cough up twenty five billion dollars to Ireland, who were 1713 01:21:51,120 --> 01:21:54,800 Speaker 2: also ironically disappointed because they didn't want the case to 1714 01:21:54,800 --> 01:21:57,360 Speaker 2: be the way the case is. But nevertheless, a country 1715 01:21:57,400 --> 01:21:59,960 Speaker 2: with the surplus of millions, if not billions of dollars, 1716 01:22:00,120 --> 01:22:02,400 Speaker 2: the moment suddenly have to and just think about this. 1717 01:22:02,800 --> 01:22:05,920 Speaker 2: Even though you technically have sort of lost the case, 1718 01:22:05,960 --> 01:22:07,719 Speaker 2: you've won it because you're collecting all of a sudden 1719 01:22:07,760 --> 01:22:10,360 Speaker 2: twenty five billion dollars. Now, Ireland's about the size of 1720 01:22:10,400 --> 01:22:12,439 Speaker 2: this country, and if we were smart, we would have 1721 01:22:12,439 --> 01:22:13,800 Speaker 2: a whole lot of corporates here as well, but we 1722 01:22:13,800 --> 01:22:16,160 Speaker 2: weren't that smart. Therefore Ireland got them all. So they 1723 01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:18,840 Speaker 2: now have the decision as to what do we do 1724 01:22:18,920 --> 01:22:21,080 Speaker 2: with twenty five billion dollars we didn't have yesterday? 1725 01:22:21,160 --> 01:22:23,720 Speaker 6: Could we not? You know, when a case that we 1726 01:22:23,720 --> 01:22:26,600 Speaker 6: don't really want to win, and maybe exactly what some 1727 01:22:26,600 --> 01:22:28,479 Speaker 6: of these fiscal holes that we keep finding all over 1728 01:22:28,520 --> 01:22:28,880 Speaker 6: the place. 1729 01:22:28,960 --> 01:22:29,599 Speaker 2: Isn't it amazing? 1730 01:22:29,640 --> 01:22:29,880 Speaker 10: Though? 1731 01:22:29,960 --> 01:22:33,000 Speaker 2: So one day they say you're now owed twenty five 1732 01:22:33,240 --> 01:22:35,639 Speaker 2: billion dollars. So they are now having to set about 1733 01:22:36,160 --> 01:22:39,240 Speaker 2: working out what exactly they're going to do with it. 1734 01:22:39,280 --> 01:22:42,200 Speaker 2: They're already in surplus, they've already got more money than 1735 01:22:42,240 --> 01:22:45,360 Speaker 2: they need. So what that decision is is going to 1736 01:22:45,360 --> 01:22:47,280 Speaker 2: be fascinating to watch over the next couple of days 1737 01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:49,160 Speaker 2: of not wis it's eleven away from nine. 1738 01:22:49,920 --> 01:22:54,519 Speaker 1: The costume breakfasts with the jagular f base news talks eNB. 1739 01:22:54,640 --> 01:22:56,640 Speaker 2: Small to medium business right got big needs when it 1740 01:22:56,680 --> 01:22:59,000 Speaker 2: comes to the Internet, which is why New Zealand businesses 1741 01:22:59,080 --> 01:23:01,760 Speaker 2: run on fiber of Co awso Worth Business Fiber you 1742 01:23:01,800 --> 01:23:05,439 Speaker 2: can optimize business performance with uncompromising bandwidth en reliability, so 1743 01:23:05,439 --> 01:23:07,280 Speaker 2: it's great for the business looking to get that extra 1744 01:23:07,479 --> 01:23:10,599 Speaker 2: edge and sustain A future proofed connection handles the most 1745 01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:14,200 Speaker 2: advanced data hungry tasks.

They do. He said is terrifts raked in 1766 01:24:17,800 --> 01:24:21,360 Speaker 24: hundreds of billions of dollars from China. Americans paid those billions. 1767 01:24:21,479 --> 01:24:23,880 Speaker 24: He said all the jobs created under under Biden and 1768 01:24:23,920 --> 01:24:27,040 Speaker 24: Harris are merely bounced back jobs from his administration. No, 1769 01:24:27,200 --> 01:24:30,040 Speaker 24: today's number is millions higher than back then. He said, 1770 01:24:30,080 --> 01:24:32,840 Speaker 24: we have the worst inflation ever. No, the US record 1771 01:24:32,880 --> 01:24:35,160 Speaker 24: is twenty three point seven percent. It is two point 1772 01:24:35,280 --> 01:24:37,920 Speaker 24: nine percent today, down from a Biden Harris era peak 1773 01:24:38,040 --> 01:24:40,040 Speaker 24: of nine point one percent. He said there was no 1774 01:24:40,120 --> 01:24:43,040 Speaker 24: inflation when he was president. Prices actually rose a cumulative 1775 01:24:43,120 --> 01:24:44,439 Speaker 24: eight percent when he was president. 1776 01:24:44,800 --> 01:24:44,920 Speaker 6: Then. 1777 01:24:44,960 --> 01:24:47,600 Speaker 24: On immigration, he said migrants in an Ohio city. You 1778 01:24:47,640 --> 01:24:50,760 Speaker 24: heard are eating people's cats and dogs. That is a baseless, 1779 01:24:50,760 --> 01:24:54,320 Speaker 24: debunked Facebook rumor, just nonsense. He said Harris as borders 1780 01:24:54,360 --> 01:24:56,599 Speaker 24: are no she never was. She had a more limited 1781 01:24:56,720 --> 01:25:00,000 Speaker 24: immigration of related diplomatic assignment. He said twenty one million 1782 01:25:00,120 --> 01:25:02,599 Speaker 24: migrants have crossed the border under Harris. That is many 1783 01:25:02,600 --> 01:25:05,879 Speaker 24: millions too high. He said millions of people are entering monthly. 1784 01:25:06,080 --> 01:25:08,599 Speaker 24: There has not been a single month in the millions. 1785 01:25:08,880 --> 01:25:11,400 Speaker 24: He said many of the migrants are from foreign prisons 1786 01:25:11,479 --> 01:25:14,559 Speaker 24: or mental institutions. Even his own campaign has not been 1787 01:25:14,560 --> 01:25:18,240 Speaker 24: able to corroborate that. On abortion, he said every Democrat 1788 01:25:18,360 --> 01:25:21,599 Speaker 24: wanted Roe v. Wade overturn. That is just untethered to reality. 1789 01:25:21,800 --> 01:25:24,439 Speaker 24: Roe was supported by more than eighty percent of Democrats. Then, 1790 01:25:24,439 --> 01:25:27,639 Speaker 24: he said every legal scholar wanted Row overturned. A bunch 1791 01:25:27,640 --> 01:25:30,479 Speaker 24: of legal scholars have personally told me that they did not, 1792 01:25:30,840 --> 01:25:33,320 Speaker 24: He said. Governor Tim Wall says it's fine to execute 1793 01:25:33,360 --> 01:25:36,120 Speaker 24: babies after birth. Walls never said that, and that is 1794 01:25:36,280 --> 01:25:39,800 Speaker 24: illegal in every single state. On foreign relations, he said 1795 01:25:39,840 --> 01:25:42,879 Speaker 24: eighty five billion in US equipment was left to the Taliban. 1796 01:25:43,000 --> 01:25:45,479 Speaker 24: That is a massive exaggeration. The Pentagon says the number 1797 01:25:45,640 --> 01:25:48,679 Speaker 24: is seven billion. He said Iran didn't fund terror groups 1798 01:25:48,760 --> 01:25:51,920 Speaker 24: under him. Iran did, though its funding level did decline. 1799 01:25:52,000 --> 01:25:55,160 Speaker 24: He said he ended Russia's North dream to pipeline. No, 1800 01:25:55,280 --> 01:25:57,960 Speaker 24: he did authorize sanctions, but after it was more than 1801 01:25:58,000 --> 01:26:02,760 Speaker 24: ninety percent complete and Russia resume construction. During his own presidency, 1802 01:26:02,960 --> 01:26:05,200 Speaker 24: he said the US has provided far more aid to 1803 01:26:05,320 --> 01:26:06,639 Speaker 24: Ukraine than Europe has. 1804 01:26:06,840 --> 01:26:07,439 Speaker 5: Is the reverse. 1805 01:26:07,479 --> 01:26:10,120 Speaker 24: Europe has provided far more aid than the US. He 1806 01:26:10,160 --> 01:26:13,200 Speaker 24: said President Biden took millions of dollars from China, he 1807 01:26:13,240 --> 01:26:15,840 Speaker 24: did not. He added a false claim about Biden getting 1808 01:26:15,840 --> 01:26:18,600 Speaker 24: money from Russia, again nonsense. And he said Harris was 1809 01:26:18,640 --> 01:26:21,799 Speaker 24: sent to negotiate peace with Putin right before Russia's invasion 1810 01:26:21,800 --> 01:26:24,280 Speaker 24: of Ukraine. Not only did that just not happen, The 1811 01:26:24,360 --> 01:26:27,799 Speaker 24: Kremlin says Harris has never once even spoken with Putin. 1812 01:26:28,240 --> 01:26:31,200 Speaker 24: Trump said he rebuilt the entire military he did not, 1813 01:26:31,680 --> 01:26:34,400 Speaker 24: and then attacking Vice President Harris, he said Harris was 1814 01:26:34,439 --> 01:26:36,800 Speaker 24: the first candidate to drop out of the twenty twenty 1815 01:26:36,840 --> 01:26:39,760 Speaker 24: Democratic primary. There were actually thirteen others who dropped out 1816 01:26:39,800 --> 01:26:43,160 Speaker 24: before her. He said Harris previously said she wasn't black. 1817 01:26:43,439 --> 01:26:46,679 Speaker 24: Total fiction. He said people don't attend Harris rallies. 1818 01:26:46,880 --> 01:26:47,600 Speaker 6: Thousands do. 1819 01:26:47,760 --> 01:26:50,599 Speaker 24: Indeed, he said, people don't leave his own rallies early. 1820 01:26:50,840 --> 01:26:51,240 Speaker 2: Some do. 1821 01:26:51,520 --> 01:26:53,360 Speaker 24: And when it came to the twenty twenty election and 1822 01:26:53,400 --> 01:26:56,120 Speaker 24: its own legal troubles, he said, there's so much proof 1823 01:26:56,200 --> 01:26:58,600 Speaker 24: that twenty twenty election was stolen, there is not. 1824 01:26:58,880 --> 01:26:59,360 Speaker 12: It was not. 1825 01:26:59,680 --> 01:27:02,360 Speaker 24: He said Nancy Pelosi turned down his offer of ten 1826 01:27:02,400 --> 01:27:05,320 Speaker 24: thousand National Guard troops on January sixth. There's no evidence 1827 01:27:05,320 --> 01:27:06,559 Speaker 24: she even got such an offer. 1828 01:27:06,560 --> 01:27:07,760 Speaker 2: It was Trump, not the. 1829 01:27:07,720 --> 01:27:10,719 Speaker 24: Speaker, who had the power to deploy the Guard. He said, 1830 01:27:10,760 --> 01:27:13,480 Speaker 24: no judge even looked at the merits of his allegations 1831 01:27:13,479 --> 01:27:16,200 Speaker 24: about the twenty twenty election. Some judges actually did, and 1832 01:27:16,280 --> 01:27:19,120 Speaker 24: his side still lost those cases. He said the Justice 1833 01:27:19,120 --> 01:27:22,000 Speaker 24: Department was behind a variety of legal cases it had 1834 01:27:22,040 --> 01:27:24,599 Speaker 24: actually nothing to do with, and then a whole bunch 1835 01:27:24,600 --> 01:27:26,719 Speaker 24: of other lives on a variety of topics. He said, 1836 01:27:26,880 --> 01:27:30,120 Speaker 24: crime is skyrocketing, is actually declining sharply. He said the 1837 01:27:30,160 --> 01:27:32,960 Speaker 24: Central Park five pleaded guilty, They did not. They were 1838 01:27:33,040 --> 01:27:36,080 Speaker 24: wrongly convicted. He said those men killed someone, it was 1839 01:27:36,120 --> 01:27:38,880 Speaker 24: not even a murder case. He said he saved Obamacare 1840 01:27:39,000 --> 01:27:41,240 Speaker 24: when actually he tried to kill it, and then weakened 1841 01:27:41,280 --> 01:27:43,960 Speaker 24: it and he said, Harris has a plan to confiscate 1842 01:27:44,040 --> 01:27:45,439 Speaker 24: quote everybody's gun. 1843 01:27:45,640 --> 01:27:46,120 Speaker 17: She does not. 1844 01:27:46,360 --> 01:27:50,000 Speaker 24: In twenty nineteen, she supported a mandatory buyback of assault 1845 01:27:50,080 --> 01:27:53,200 Speaker 24: weapons in particular, and her campaign says she doesn't even 1846 01:27:53,240 --> 01:27:53,960 Speaker 24: support that. 1847 01:27:54,280 --> 01:27:54,479 Speaker 14: Now. 1848 01:27:54,640 --> 01:27:57,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, but hold on, that was swaying a half minutes long. 1849 01:27:57,840 --> 01:27:58,719 Speaker 7: What about Kamala. 1850 01:27:58,960 --> 01:28:01,120 Speaker 24: Let's look at a one false claim that Vice President 1851 01:28:01,200 --> 01:28:03,920 Speaker 24: Harris did make about the economic situation that the Biden 1852 01:28:03,960 --> 01:28:06,760 Speaker 24: Harris administration was left by Trump. So the Biden Harris 1853 01:28:06,800 --> 01:28:09,680 Speaker 24: administration was not actually left the worst unemployment since the 1854 01:28:09,720 --> 01:28:12,000 Speaker 24: Great Depression. They were left a six point four percent 1855 01:28:12,040 --> 01:28:14,960 Speaker 24: unemployment rate in January twenty twenty one. That was certainly 1856 01:28:14,960 --> 01:28:18,600 Speaker 24: elevated by recent standards, pretty high, but it was significantly 1857 01:28:18,640 --> 01:28:21,320 Speaker 24: down from the fourteen point eight percent a level it 1858 01:28:21,360 --> 01:28:24,320 Speaker 24: reached early in the pandemic, So it was already improving 1859 01:28:24,800 --> 01:28:27,360 Speaker 24: at the time that Biden Harris administration took office. And 1860 01:28:27,400 --> 01:28:29,639 Speaker 24: that six point four percent level was the highest since 1861 01:28:29,640 --> 01:28:32,280 Speaker 24: the Great Recession, so in the last twenty years, not 1862 01:28:32,400 --> 01:28:33,880 Speaker 24: going back decades further. 1863 01:28:34,120 --> 01:28:35,519 Speaker 2: So there you go. It was a bit of a 1864 01:28:35,520 --> 01:28:37,320 Speaker 2: boring one, Okay, It was a bit of a boring one. 1865 01:28:37,320 --> 01:28:39,679 Speaker 2: It's almost she turned up and seid everything that was 1866 01:28:40,040 --> 01:28:43,480 Speaker 2: kind of accurate. So there it is. If you disagree 1867 01:28:43,479 --> 01:28:45,760 Speaker 2: with that, I know that Carrie, Nick and John are 1868 01:28:45,760 --> 01:28:48,559 Speaker 2: standing by for your ticks this morning, and you can 1869 01:28:49,960 --> 01:28:51,800 Speaker 2: you can have it out with him for I don't know, 1870 01:28:52,320 --> 01:28:54,960 Speaker 2: next three outs.
