1 00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:05,040 Speaker 1: The newsmakers and the personalities the big names talk to, 2 00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:10,120 Speaker 1: like my Costing, Breakfast with a Veda, Retirement Communities, Life, 3 00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:11,920 Speaker 1: Your Way, News, togs Head Been. 4 00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:14,440 Speaker 2: You welcome today to Windstone Jobs. Is this really a 5 00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:16,439 Speaker 2: power price thing or more to do with the price 6 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,160 Speaker 2: of logs? The Australian government enters the world of fantasy 7 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:21,439 Speaker 2: as they look to ban kids from social media. Could 8 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:23,320 Speaker 2: be a rescue package coming from the Golden Mile and 9 00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:26,120 Speaker 2: the Capitol US Debate day. Of course, Mark and Jinny 10 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:28,800 Speaker 2: lined up after eight in Politics Wednesday, Richard, Arnold, Ker 11 00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:30,840 Speaker 2: and Gilbert are in from offshore as. 12 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 1: Well, Posky. 13 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:33,640 Speaker 2: So we launch into the middle of the week. Yes, 14 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 2: the debate this afternoon, in a race that has been 15 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 2: tipped on its head in the most extraordinary way. Not 16 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 2: a lot of interest in debates, they told us prior 17 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 2: to the Trump v. Biden one. The fact that there 18 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 2: will be only one Trump v Biden this time round 19 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 2: shows how wrong that was. And then he went and 20 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 2: got shot. To be fair, it's an outside bet that 21 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 2: anything tangible, far less tumultuous happens today. The Harris interview, 22 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 2: which they also made a meal of, turned out to 23 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,280 Speaker 2: be a kind of nothing in the sense that the 24 00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 2: yard stick appears to be these days you need to survive. 25 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 2: If you walk off stage unscathed, it's been a success. Apparently, 26 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 2: Harris in the interview said nothing, but the fact she 27 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 2: wasn't a stuttering, bumbling full seemed to be a pass mark. 28 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,679 Speaker 2: And if you watch the first debate, the Biden melt 29 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 2: down aside, it would have been as boring as drying paint. 30 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:16,040 Speaker 2: I mean, no audience, Mike's not on. A very staid, scripted, 31 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 2: controlled period of back and forth does not bring a 32 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 2: rumor a contest to life. In fact, that's one of 33 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 2: the ironies, n't thought, because that's what a debate actually 34 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 2: should be about. A debate is different to say, an interview, 35 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:28,959 Speaker 2: because it's back and forward and varies in pace and 36 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 2: jumps about a bit. That's its potential magic, the test 37 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 2: of the combatants in the heat of battle. There's barely 38 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 2: a battle the way the rules are structured. Much then 39 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 2: relies on the moderators. The American style appears to be 40 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 2: low key, non confrontational with minimal follow up, but it 41 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 2: will draw a crowd. Because this race seems to have settled. 42 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 2: Trump had his convention, which was Good got shot, looked 43 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 2: to have won it before it even started. Enter Harris 44 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 2: had a convention equally as Good got the poles and 45 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 2: the money moving, but seems now to have peaked with 46 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 2: the pole showing it's Nick and Nick. So we're kind 47 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 2: of back to where we started. As electric or dull 48 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 2: as it may be today, what counts the consequences and 49 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 2: like it or not, one is going to run America 50 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 2: and that affects every single one of us. 51 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 1: Wo news of the world. 52 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 2: In ninety seconds and the rubbers hit the road. For the 53 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 2: UK government, the controversial winter heating cuts have been voted through. 54 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 3: We must fix the foundations of our economy as the. 55 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 4: First step to rebuilding Britain and making the changes our 56 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 4: country desperately. 57 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 5: Government back, though certainly flies against everything I believe in 58 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 5: as a labor NP about tackling inequality and poverty within 59 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 5: our society. I was not elected to impoverish my constituents 60 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 5: and put them in this hardship. 61 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 2: Tories certainly didn't. 62 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 5: This is an absurd policy which their own plans are 63 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 5: actually actively working. 64 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 6: Again. 65 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 2: Speaking of the Tory is another vote overnight as they 66 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 2: whittle the leadership contenders. 67 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 3: Down Melstride is eliminated from the contest, and the following 68 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 3: four candidates go forward to the Conservative Party conference, namely 69 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 3: Kemy bad Knock, James Cleverly, Robert Jenerck and Tom Chugenhart. 70 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,359 Speaker 2: Jeneric wanted again, I'll give you the numbers if you 71 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 2: want later on. Then to the inquiry into the death 72 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 2: of Steve Diamond. He was the guest on the Jeremy 73 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 2: Kyle Show show has been ruled out as a cause. 74 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 7: He was in tears and spoken to in the most 75 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 7: brutal way by Jeremy carl The only good thing that 76 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 7: came of my father's death is a Jeremy Carle's show 77 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 7: is canceled. 78 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 2: Kyle themselves says he's now been cleared. Then stateside As 79 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 2: they warm up to this afternoons before mentioned. The Republicans 80 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 2: are providing material by hearing testimony from victims of crime 81 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 2: committed by illegal migrants. 82 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 8: Our girls deserve protection, Our girls deserve to live their 83 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 8: life without fear. 84 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 9: They were released into the United States. It was not 85 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 9: even a four three weeks later that they would take 86 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 9: my daughter, Jocelyn Nungary's life. 87 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 10: He crossed the border three times, was sent back. 88 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 2: It'll be a feature today.

The clipper will work out where 94 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 2: they can send the next mission where the ice crust 95 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 2: is thinners if there's an motion that's going to gush 96 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 2: out to preserve life, all that exciting stuff that is 97 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 2: news of the world in ninety seconds. Do you think 98 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 2: the jobs here are bad? It is a grim September 99 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 2: coming in the UK. Numbers on that for you shortly 100 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 2: watch this one that's going to unfold with the great 101 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 2: ilementrist Volkswagen in Germany. Germany's got all sorts of problems 102 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 2: in and of itself, of course, but Volkswagen and Germany 103 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 2: overnight that's been brewing for a while. There's a massive 104 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 2: scrap unfolding with the unions. They've got a whole lot 105 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 2: of protections at Volkswagen and they've had them for years. 106 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 2: An employment protection agreement started at nineteen ninety four. Basically 107 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 2: it's job for life stuff. They've ripped that up overnight. 108 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 2: There's a wage agreement for employees with specialist or leadership 109 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 2: positions gone. There's scrapping agreements for temporary workers. The deal 110 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,600 Speaker 2: was that if you completed your apprenticeship you had to 111 00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 2: get a job. Gone. Job security of employees remains place 112 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 2: until the end of June next year, but then it's 113 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 2: all on. They've got huge, huge troubles. And Volkswagen, of course, 114 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,359 Speaker 2: it's very similar to the center of the North Island. 115 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 2: Volkswagen in a place called Wolfsburg is one of the 116 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 2: biggest employees by so far. It doesn't matter. The town 117 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 2: and the region relies on these sort of companies and 118 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 2: they're in trouble. Twelve past six. 119 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 1: The Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio owed 120 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 1: by News Talk Zippy. 121 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 2: Then we come to jobs in Britain. They calling it 122 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 2: a groom September to come six thousand jobs to be 123 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 2: cut and steel and oil refining twenty eight hundred at 124 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 2: Port Tulbot and Wales. Three thousand expected to be exit 125 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 2: British Steel Scunthorpe. A further four hundred to be cut 126 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 2: at Scotland's Grangemouth Oil refinery, so it's grim all over 127 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 2: the place. Fifteen past six, I'm j my wealth, Andre Dellahert, good, 128 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 2: good morning, very good morning. Mine the market like the sixteen. 129 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 4: A muted response. Muted response. 130 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 11: I thought we'd better follow up on Apple after the 131 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:58,719 Speaker 11: big revealed yesterday, glow time. 132 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 4: This is not a detailed technical review. 133 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 11: I'm sure that Glenn will have posted that summer in 134 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 11: the ends at me ecosystem over the last twenty four hours. So, yes, 135 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 11: iPhone sixteens launched yesterday, but apparently I have a. 136 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 4: Fifteen who knew who knew? But anyway, the big selling 137 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 4: you wanted, did she? Yeah? Well no, I got the 138 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,159 Speaker 4: younger people at work to show me how I find 139 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 4: it out y. 140 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 11: So look, look, the big selling point is that these 141 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,840 Speaker 11: sixteens will incorporate AI features. I think in New Zealand 142 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 11: will have to wait for that until the end of 143 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 11: the year. 144 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 4: There's a whole lot of. 145 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 11: New camera functionality. Wearables you watch you watch can now 146 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 11: do new stuff. It can let you know if you 147 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 11: have sleep happar and I tongue in cheek wondered whether 148 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 11: Fisher and Pipe or Healthcare and res Med will be 149 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 11: cheering that as everybody now goes and self diagnoses themselves, 150 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,359 Speaker 11: and they rush in there to buy sleep apnea products. 151 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 11: The air pods, they get an upgrade. They've even got 152 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 11: a hearing aid function. So the things that wreck you're 153 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 11: hearing when you're younger will help you out when you 154 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 11: get older. 155 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 4: From a business point. 156 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 11: Of view, though, Apple is attempting here to address weaker 157 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 11: sales for the iPhone and hoping that this Apple Intelligence 158 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 11: is one feature that will appeal to consumers. As I said, overnight, 159 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,039 Speaker 11: fairly muted share pace reaction. Last I looked, it was 160 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 11: down zero point two percent, so not really a game 161 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 11: changer personally. Might I'm a little bit skeptical whether the 162 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 11: AI functionality is a game changer, but then I'm probably 163 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:21,119 Speaker 11: not the target market jury for me is that Sorry, 164 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 11: the jury is still out over whether it's going to 165 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 11: revive the Apple iPhone sales. I see last night Huawei 166 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 11: launched a trifold smartphone. So look, time will tell as 167 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 11: to you know, you can fold it up and put 168 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 11: it in your pockets, sort on it record.

The last release was plus two point 189 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 11: eight percent. The indexes are eighty four point six. The 190 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 11: one hundred percent level represents the dividing line between optimists 191 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 11: and pessimists, so below one hundred means that pessimists are 192 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 11: in the ascendency and apparently this is reflect concerns. 193 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 4: About the labor market. 194 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:43,679 Speaker 11: On the same day, NAB released business Confidence Index. It 195 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 11: also printed low minus four from one, so it's declining. 196 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 11: Business conditions fell from three to six. Both of these 197 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,719 Speaker 11: are now below average, so the strong private sector. 198 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 4: Labor demand may be waning. 199 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 11: So, you know, we got very negative a few months ago. 200 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 11: Now we're getting a little bit excited about the prospect 201 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,199 Speaker 11: of falling interest rates. Remember, the RBA governor has said 202 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 11: that interst rate falls are still away off there, so 203 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 11: we're sort of moving at different speeds. 204 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,199 Speaker 2: Marke, Okay, this afternoon debate time.

I mean, 377 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 13: they've changed so many things that it's really meant that 378 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 13: they're defying Minister's pair words. I mean they're taking away 379 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 13: two critical bustops they say they can't replace and put 380 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 13: back lets is done, because that would be a positive, 381 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 13: just finding to do the positives. But the biggest thing 382 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 13: we found out this is the news of today. Read 383 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 13: what the news recently and Paris orders. A very leaning 384 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 13: journalists found us out. We have a Walker Kitari board 385 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 13: a minute or a brief from Brett Giddon and Robin 386 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 13: Elston to the board which says that the gold of 387 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 13: mahas business support. That was absolute falsehood. And so we're 388 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 13: saying now that the border of walkerck Day to the 389 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,359 Speaker 13: end or to borrow of the one three nine million 390 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 13: was based on a falsehood by officers. And that's when 391 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 13: with Deedwockick to Day, all these people are walking in 392 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,479 Speaker 13: locks tip at the council officers who were all bent 393 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 13: on the Salooney Golden Mile. They care a revitalization, it's 394 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 13: a ruination. 395 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,680 Speaker 2: Mike good Only Wilson Barry appreciate it very much. Barry 396 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,479 Speaker 2: Wilson guarding into the Golden Mile. The state at home 397 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 2: Gate aren't helping as well. I wonder whether there's some 398 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:31,880 Speaker 2: sort of role for the government, and that Shane Jones, 399 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 2: by the way, who's sort of tied up his associate 400 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 2: Energy Minister and regional minister. He'll be with us after 401 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 2: seven on the Windstone thing. But Wellington in terms of 402 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 2: people being at home has been an ongoing problem of course. 403 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 2: Nineteen away from seven scar the results of the misery 404 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,159 Speaker 2: Index and tell you why Karmala Harris is going to 405 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 2: win the race. They've successfully the misery index predicted presidential 406 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 2: elections for four decades. The gauge adds the unemployment rate 407 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 2: and the pace of annualized inflation together for an insight 408 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 2: into the intensity of it is displeasure with the economy. 409 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:04,920 Speaker 2: So the index currently sitting at seven point zero two, 410 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,120 Speaker 2: which is below the level needed to boot the incumbent 411 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 2: out of office. The level needs to be seven point 412 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 2: three to five to three on average. The number accounts 413 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,359 Speaker 2: for the modest decline in the job. This right that 414 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 2: we got a couple of days ago to four point 415 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,920 Speaker 2: two percent. So if you're below seven point three five three, 416 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 2: which at seven point zero two, they are the incumbent wins. 417 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 2: But of course we've not had the incumbent the way 418 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 2: it is at the moment of shean incumbent or just 419 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 2: to surrogate incumbent.

I mean, I'm assuming that are 444 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 2: people listening to this this morning that voted for all 445 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,680 Speaker 2: of this and they're thoroughly enjoying the experience. I was 446 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:43,640 Speaker 2: told last night, Mike, the town Hall needs more money 447 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 2: for Phase two. It's ridiculous. Too many cones, it's depressing, 448 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 2: too many raised crossings. The mayor and the Green councilors 449 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 2: have got no clue. They're slowly strangling and destroying our city. 450 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:57,160 Speaker 6: Six forty five International correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance, 451 00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 6: Peace of mind for New Zealand business. 452 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 2: So Tird Richard morning, I'm ready a you. 453 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 16: I don't know, but already or not, this might be 454 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 16: the critical moment in the seemingly endless presidential campaign. Here 455 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 16: is the two contenders come on the Harrison Donald Trump 456 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 16: face off in a few hours. Here the big debate. 457 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 16: They have never been in the same room before. Now 458 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 16: they will be standing what only meters apart in a 459 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 16: tiny space in Philadelphia for their first and likely only debate. 460 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 13: Encountered. 461 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 16: The polls much as they were at the start of 462 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 16: the week when we spoke. Trump is up by a 463 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 16: couple of points in Arizona and Florida. Harrison Trump attired 464 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,919 Speaker 16: in Georgia, Nevada, and North Carolina. Harris is up by 465 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 16: three points in Michigan. Also in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. So 466 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 16: those last three are what is sometimes called the blue wall. 467 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:44,679 Speaker 16: If Democrats can win these states and always, all these poles, 468 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 16: of course, are within the margin of error. So this 469 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,119 Speaker 16: debate in a few hours is critical. It is ninety minutes. 470 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 16: There will be no audience. Mike's are on only when 471 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 16: the candidate questioned is speaking, Otherwise they muted. Only the 472 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 16: moderators can ask questions. There will be no opening statements. 473 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 16: Trump won the COURSS, so he gets to speak last. 474 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,120 Speaker 16: So Trump says he has not been preparing for the debate, 475 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 16: But yes, he has been. 476 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 4: Doing debate prep. 477 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 16: Just I don't call it that, folks. One interesting dynamic 478 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 16: is how Trump deals with a woman. He debated Hillary 479 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 16: couldn't course twenty sixteen.

Well, how will 487 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 16: that play at a time of growing gender gap? Here 488 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 16: here is Harris's take on Trump right now. 489 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:39,159 Speaker 3: There's no floor for him. 490 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:44,120 Speaker 19: In terms of how low he will go, and we should. 491 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 20: Be prepared for that. 492 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 19: We should be prepared for the fact that he is 493 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 19: not burdened. 494 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:48,160 Speaker 20: By telling the truth. 495 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 16: Republicans arranged a Capitol Hill memorial today for the thirty 496 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,359 Speaker 16: US troops who were killed in that suicide bombing that 497 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,160 Speaker 16: hit the trouble departure from Afghanistan three years ago. 498 00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 2: So is the politics and the. 499 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 16: Timing of this event three years on to the day. 500 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 16: Harris is bringing two former Trump officials as debate guests 501 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 16: for the Spin Room later tonight.

Meantime. 509 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:32,400 Speaker 16: Trump said this bit of complete nonsense at. 510 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 2: His last rally. 511 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 17: Tamala support states being able to take minor children and 512 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 17: perform sex change operation, take them away from their parents, 513 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 17: perform sex change operation, and send them back home. Can 514 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 17: you imagine you're a parent and your son leaves the 515 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 17: house and you say, Jimmy, I love you so much, 516 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 17: go have a good day in school, and your son 517 00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 17: comes back with a. 518 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 16: Brutal rubbish of course, but then the internet never. 519 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 2: Lies, right, Ah, for God's sake. Then we get to Nevada, 520 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 2: where the Murdoch story is going to be fascinating, and 521 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 2: see how this plays out. 522 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 16: Well, it's succession the sequel, isn't it. We thought the 523 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 16: saga of azillionaire's kids fighting furiously to control the media 524 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 16: empire when he's dead is done with the end of 525 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 16: the HBO mini series Sink again, folks in Nevada. Today, 526 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 16: a court case begins where ninety three year old Rupert 527 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 16: Murdock is still kicking trying to overturn a long standing 528 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 16: family trust which was put in place when Rupert split 529 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 16: from his second wife Anna. The idea what these children 530 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 16: would have equal shares in the Murdock empire. Latterly, though, 531 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 16: Murdoch has favored his right leaning son of Lachlan and 532 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 16: stepped aside to give him sway a Fox News, Wall 533 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 16: Street Journal, New York Post and so on. Now three 534 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 16: other Murdoch offspring James, Elizabeth and Prudence are suing to 535 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,440 Speaker 16: prevent a move to quash the original family trust. Rupert, 536 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 16: arguing that only Lachlan can maintain his empire's commercial value, 537 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,640 Speaker 16: trying to keep the legal proceedings under ramps, but outlets 538 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 16: including The New York Times, Washington Post, AP Reuter's are 539 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 16: demanding access to the hearings over the thirty two billion 540 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 16: dollar in New Zealand Murdock empire. Meantime, horror of horrors 541 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 16: for Rupert and his fifth wife, for Elaina Zakova or 542 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 16: whatever her name is. But his son James has just 543 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 16: endorsed Kamala Harris. 544 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,640 Speaker 2: Oh no, all right, mate, we'll see it Friday. Appreciate 545 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 2: it very much, Richard, unlouded states RFK. I thought this 546 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 2: was sorted, but it wasn't. I told you that he 547 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 2: was stuck on the ballot in various swing states after 548 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 2: withdrawing in supporting Trump. So I thought he was stuck 549 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 2: because they couldn't do anything about it apart from go 550 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 2: to court. They went to court and they won, and 551 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 2: so then he was off the ballot. But then the 552 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,120 Speaker 2: people in Michigan decided they needed to go to court again, 553 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:47,679 Speaker 2: so they went to the Supreme Court and the Supreme 554 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 2: Court rule five to two overturning the appeals court decision 555 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 2: that had removed him, and the Secretary of State got 556 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 2: involved in this, so anyway, he's back on. So we'll 557 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,120 Speaker 2: keep you posted ten away from seven. 558 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,680 Speaker 1: The my Hostle Breakfast with Bailey's Real Estate US Talk. 559 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 2: Says he, Well, Mike, how brainless is the US system? Well? 560 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:11,640 Speaker 2: Pretty brainless? Obviously, refuse JFK to be taken off the ballot. 561 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:16,159 Speaker 2: Happily allow Biden off the nomination. It's a technicality, but 562 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 2: I take your point, Mike. The whole we're in as 563 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 2: a country and the eyewatering debt we have as a 564 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 2: standard to switch to TV on Sunday to hear Hipkin's 565 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,919 Speaker 2: vision and plan for regaining government is to borrow more 566 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 2: for infrastructure and tax people more. Is he really that stupid? 567 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:33,440 Speaker 2: You probably answered your own question, Mike, Parliament Thorndon that 568 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 2: part of Wellington's actually fairly vibrant and busy. Well, I'm 569 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 2: not surprised. It's where the government is up around Willis Street, 570 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:43,400 Speaker 2: but beyond their manors, Wakefield Courtney Place, absolute hellhole of construction. 571 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 2: And closed shops, vagrants and homeless. It's heartbreaking. The sooner 572 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 2: that Parner goes, well, you voted for her. We have 573 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 2: an adult in charge, the better, Thank you, Rhonda. And 574 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 2: speaking of adults in charge, it is almost inconceivable that 575 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:59,159 Speaker 2: Elderinezi is as inept as he is in Australia. But 576 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 2: he announced today that he's drawing up legislation. So he's 577 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 2: going to ban kids from going on social media, as 578 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,159 Speaker 2: though that's a thing you can do, and so it 579 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 2: will be exactly the same. They haven'tdrawn up the legislation. 580 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:12,919 Speaker 2: He thinks about sixteen's ripe. Sixteen ish above you can 581 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 2: go on social media. The legislation will involve the business 582 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 2: of simply are you eighteen or sixteen when you go 583 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:21,920 Speaker 2: on social media. So when you go to TikTok, it 584 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:24,400 Speaker 2: will go are you sixteen and you will go yes, 585 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,159 Speaker 2: even though you're six, and that will be the end 586 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 2: of it. And the fact that he thinks that's going 587 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 2: to make any difference whatsoever is contained in the Sydney 588 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 2: Morning Herald headline I read yesterday, which was buried far 589 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 2: too far down the article. It said will it actually work? 590 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 2: And their opening line was no, country in the world 591 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 2: has rolled out a system like the one that the 592 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 2: e Safety Commission is proposing. Beginning middle an end of 593 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 2: story five away from seven, all. 594 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:57,639 Speaker 1: The ins and the outs. It's the biz with business favor. 595 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 1: Take your business productivity to the vex level. 596 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,439 Speaker 2: Where's thefts, lord of the rings? All that stuff? Peter Jackson. 597 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 2: They employ more than two thousand people, got a nice 598 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 2: little set up in mirrmar in Wellington. Funnily enough, one 599 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 2: truckloads of oscars. One of the top special effects companies, 600 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:13,640 Speaker 2: of course in the world, and yet we get numbers 601 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,399 Speaker 2: for the first time this morning. In basically I suspect 602 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 2: the Taylor of the New Zealand economy and perhaps Wellington's, 603 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 2: maybe even Hollywoods. They posted losses for the past two years. 604 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:23,639 Speaker 2: How can does a company be so successful when so 605 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 2: many wards and still not make money. So for the 606 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 2: year to March of twenty four they lost eighty three million. 607 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 2: The year before that lost one hundred and seven. They're 608 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,719 Speaker 2: disrupted by the strikes in Hollywood for the twenty four year, 609 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 2: though that only concided with a small drop in revenue 610 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 2: four thirty seven million down to four thirty so it 611 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 2: wasn't a major drop. They do expect to return to 612 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 2: profitability medium turn thanks to some big budget productions that 613 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 2: they've been involved in that aren't included in the twenty 614 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 2: four books. So this are the encouraging parts. So what 615 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 2: have they been involved in Dead Paul and Wolverine that's 616 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 2: gone well for them? Well, I hope it goes welcome 617 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 2: because it' certainly gone well at the box office, House 618 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 2: of Dragon and Planet of the Apes. So they've involved 619 00:28:56,360 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 2: in all those. By the way, the perfect couple, liv 620 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 2: Shreiver and Nicole Kidman, and a couple of people will going, oh, well, 621 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 2: do I know those faces from that sort of show? Anyway, 622 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 2: I started watching a bit of that yesterday afternoon once 623 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 2: I watched the New York Jets impale themselves against the 624 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 2: San Francisco forty nine ers. And it's a short series, 625 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 2: it's six episodes. It's got quite a bit of buzz. 626 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 2: It's trash, but it's quality trash. In fact, one article 627 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 2: I read about it sits on this sometimes trash can 628 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 2: be treasured, all words to that effect, and that was 629 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 2: a good summation of what the program's about. It's got 630 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 2: an intriguing vibe about it, so if you're sort of 631 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 2: a bit, you know, bit of wanderlust in the afternoon, 632 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 2: and you know, you think, why don't I click on 633 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 2: the television and the debate's not going to do it 634 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 2: for you. The perfect couple might be a little something 635 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 2: too well, watch right, middle of the North Island. Bugget 636 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 2: what are we going to do about it? We'll get 637 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 2: into that after the news, which is next. Here as 638 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 2: news to. 639 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 1: Have said, the big news, bold opinions, the Mic Hosking 640 00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 1: Breakfast with Bailey's Real Estate, your local experts across residential, 641 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 1: commercial and rural news togs. 642 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 2: Had been seven past seven is Winstone Mills have made 643 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 2: their announcement. Hundreds of jobs have lost in the center 644 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 2: of the North Island, and the power price debates sparked 645 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 2: back up again. Octopus Energy has operated here for a 646 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 2: couple of years, but the major players in Britain, they've 647 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 2: got these sites on the electricity Authority. Their COO, as 648 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 2: Margaret Cooney is well, it's Margaret morning to you. 649 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 15: Good morning. 650 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 2: So we're going to be a little bit careful here 651 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:24,880 Speaker 2: are you using this to push your barrow where jobs 652 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 2: are lost? Because I know you're one of those retailers 653 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 2: who doesn't like the gent tailor model. Is that what 654 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 2: that's all about. 655 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 13: I think this. 656 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 21: Situation demonstrates the problems in the market. So the prices 657 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 21: in the contracts market, which these large industrial customers rely on, 658 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 21: have been elevated well above average price of new generation 659 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 21: for six years. So six years is enough time for 660 00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 21: new generation to be built. It's enough time for intervention 661 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 21: that electro feel authority. So you're absolutely right that I'm 662 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 21: highlighting the issue, but it's because it's really important. Electricity 663 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 21: is really the lifeblood of the New Zealand economy. 664 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 2: Couldn't agree more. I'm just asking the question because I'm 665 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 2: not one hundred percent convinced it's purely power related this 666 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,600 Speaker 2: particular job loss, So it could well be pulp and 667 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 2: logs and stuff like that, but that's not your domain. 668 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 2: Could you defend to any degree what has been said 669 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 2: when the previous government and power onslow is in play. 670 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 2: When Onslow's in play, Noe's investing in anything. 671 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 21: Look, I think the views of the market have identified 672 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:47,280 Speaker 21: quite a number of competition issues, and if competition was 673 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 21: working well, we would have had new generation coming into market. 674 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 21: Things like Onslow are a bit of a distraction because 675 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 21: actually Onslow is a project that would have encouraged more 676 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:06,480 Speaker 21: should in theory, have encouraged more renewable investment, that we 677 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 21: didn't see that through that period. 678 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 2: What about the reading report this week? As I have 679 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 2: the pipeline of what's been announced is stupendous when that 680 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 2: gets built, problem solved, isn't it. 681 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 21: No, that's not right because these projects aren't real until 682 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 21: they have finance committed to them. So if you go 683 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 21: through that pipeline and you look at what projects actually 684 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 21: have finance committed to them. 685 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:33,479 Speaker 2: Isn't there money the law for the stuff you make 686 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 2: it green? People can't throw money at you fast enough. 687 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 9: Well. 688 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 21: One of the problems is that many international players would 689 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 21: like to enter the New Zealand market. We're one of 690 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:48,960 Speaker 21: those that we've identified that there are problems with competition 691 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 21: and the concentration of the gentailers and ultimately you need 692 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 21: to get to those structural issues which have been identified 693 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 21: by the OECD. So earlier and journe they came out 694 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 21: with the report showing that there were barriers to compet 695 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 21: in New Zealand. 696 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 2: And where I think I do agree with you this EA. 697 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 2: I have no idea what they do I mean, are 698 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 2: they asleep as anyone turned up at the office. 699 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 14: What do they do? 700 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 21: Well, Look, they've got a spectatory objective in the long 701 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 21: term mints of New Zealand consumers. So let's hope this 702 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 21: morning they. 703 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 18: Focus on that. 704 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 2: Okay, nice to talk to you, appreciate it very much. 705 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 2: Margaret Kuner, who's the octopus? The Energy Chief Operating Office? 706 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 2: A ten minutes past seven? So outside the power scrap 707 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 2: the mill closure, massive blow of course for regional New Zealand. 708 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 2: You've got a couple of meals, two hundred and thirty 709 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 2: jobs just like that. You've got the chateau problem on going. 710 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 2: Fucker Papa, that's a mess. So the whole regions in 711 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 2: real trouble. The Minister for Regional Development, the Associate Energy 712 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,720 Speaker 2: Minister as well, Shanged Jones, as we this morning to you, 713 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 2: is this about power or is it about pulp and logs? 714 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 9: Ah. We can't control in New Zealand, Mike, the commodity prices, 715 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 9: we can't control. Foreign exchange. We can't control it. Just 716 00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 9: exp at the end of the Eutumomica railway line will trade. 717 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 9: One thing we can control those is the structure and 718 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 9: the competitiveness of our power prices, and until such time 719 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:09,360 Speaker 9: we start to look at options of breaking up the 720 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 9: power of each gent tailors, who quite frankly, have ruled 721 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:17,399 Speaker 9: over various governments, intimidated them that your last speaker, I think, 722 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:19,279 Speaker 9: if there's one thing I agree with her. Until we 723 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 9: boost competitiveness, you're going to see the aluminum sector telling 724 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 9: me they're going to start importing. The corn growers are 725 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 9: doubtful whether they're going to grow because they kin'd of 726 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,279 Speaker 9: they're worried about the cost of energy. And course we've 727 00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:34,360 Speaker 9: got methodics briefing their start today about a substantial downgrade. 728 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:37,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. Is the EA of any use to anybody 729 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 2: whatsoever or not? 730 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:42,800 Speaker 9: Now, I've described the EA as a chocolate teapot, and 731 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 9: I stand by that because they've got all the powers 732 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,919 Speaker 9: in the world. But I suspect that they've been intimidated 733 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 9: as well by the gent tailors. And look, it's up 734 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 9: to you and I as Keiwis and your listeners. Do 735 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 9: you want an economy where the price of power is 736 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 9: internationally competitive to keep businesses functioning? Or do you want 737 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 9: to dis value economy and turn it into an important model. 738 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,880 Speaker 9: I don't want that, which is why Simeon Brown and 739 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:10,279 Speaker 9: I are signing off. The signing off now the criteria, 740 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,360 Speaker 9: and that criteria for the review of the power sector 741 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 9: will involve structural separation. 742 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 2: Okay, so how are you going to do that and 743 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,880 Speaker 2: what timeframe is that on? Because you're starting that, you 744 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:20,919 Speaker 2: got it. The rubbers hit the road now, it's real. 745 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:23,839 Speaker 2: So announcements don't cut it. When do you do something 746 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:26,000 Speaker 2: about the EA? When do you separate the gent tailors? 747 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 2: Over what time? 748 00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:30,919 Speaker 9: In fairness to Simim, he's already announced that he's looking 749 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 9: for a number of new members for the EA. I 750 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:36,399 Speaker 9: think the power has always been there, but look, people 751 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 9: have there had this nervousness, they've had this skitterishness. Don't 752 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 9: touch the power system. We trusted the power system to 753 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:47,880 Speaker 9: deliver outcomes they're boost international competitivists and national security. 754 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:48,400 Speaker 15: They haven't. 755 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:50,719 Speaker 9: So we have to change it simple and over what 756 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:51,359 Speaker 9: time frame? 757 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 13: Though? 758 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 2: Because this is a here and now problem. 759 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:57,399 Speaker 9: Yes, and I'm not walking away from that. And that's 760 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:01,719 Speaker 9: a ghastly outcome the people and all Harkuni in that area. 761 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 9: But the power company solved the problem for Rio Tinto. 762 00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 9: They had every opportunity and every incentive to come up 763 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 9: with a solution, Paunstone. They tried hard and I find 764 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 9: it's a very ghastly outcome. But obviously the review has 765 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 9: been signed off in short orders. The work's already taking 766 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 9: place with the Commerce Commission in the EA. But hey, mate, 767 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 9: the reality is we're having a crack at doing something 768 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:28,360 Speaker 9: remarkably different from the days of the mid nineties, and 769 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 9: we've got to do it carefully, so to bugger up 770 00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:34,360 Speaker 9: the economy in the way that Jasinda and Meghan Woods 771 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:38,320 Speaker 9: bug it up the gas industry with their juvenile announcement 772 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 9: in twenty eighteen. 773 00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:43,080 Speaker 2: Appreciate time, Shane Jones, Energy Minister, Regional Development Minister, thirteen 774 00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 2: minutes past seven. A lot of came back on this 775 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:47,759 Speaker 2: over the time. I find it incomprehensible, Mike that a 776 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 2: large company so reliant on power does not have a 777 00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 2: fixed power. So you're talking hedging. They did. They hedged 778 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 2: for half. The rest was on the spot market. You 779 00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 2: don't want to hedge against everything, because of course the 780 00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,400 Speaker 2: spot market is not always where the spot market was. Recently, 781 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,320 Speaker 2: when the spot markets zero, you don't want to be 782 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 2: hedged up higher than that. But they can do nothing 783 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,960 Speaker 2: about it. But there is in there somewhere a story 784 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 2: about the price of commodities, has Shane alluded to briefly, 785 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 2: And might I also make a pleader Mike Ryan, who's 786 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,759 Speaker 2: the CEO, possibly the chief financial Officer's a guy called 787 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:16,840 Speaker 2: Glenn Whiting. You got a front. You've got to be public. 788 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:20,880 Speaker 2: You cannot have the sort of effect on a region 789 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:22,680 Speaker 2: the way you have. And I am not saying your 790 00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 2: decisions right or wrong. I'm simply saying you've got to 791 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:27,279 Speaker 2: be accountable. You've got to explain yourself because there's a 792 00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 2: lot of questions at play here that I have for you, 793 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 2: one of which is how much is power and how 794 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 2: much is locks? And is it just an industry that 795 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 2: was going nowhere anyway? And a bad power bill for 796 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:39,080 Speaker 2: a couple of months tipped you over the edge. And 797 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 2: the real story is the commodity not the power price. 798 00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:45,400 Speaker 2: Are you're blaming the power companies needlessly? Or is the 799 00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:47,800 Speaker 2: power price real? And I can never get those answers 800 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:50,759 Speaker 2: if you don't answer the phone and hold yourself to 801 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 2: some sort of account for them. 802 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:58,720 Speaker 1: Past the Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio 803 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:00,120 Speaker 1: powered by News Talks. 804 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 2: Be Scott Jennings former advisor to George w on the 805 00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 2: debate to day after seven thirty this morning meantime at 806 00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 2: seventeen past, the Australian government, as I mentioned earlier, entered 807 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:09,959 Speaker 2: into the world of fantasy by pretending they can slap 808 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 2: a social media ban on kids Albanezi no less as 809 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:16,799 Speaker 2: drafting legislation involving age limits. They think about sixteen. If 810 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,200 Speaker 2: you're below sixteen, you won't be able to access, allegedly 811 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,880 Speaker 2: social media experts. Certified Facebook community trainer Katie Brown is 812 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 2: with us on this Katie Morning. To you one day, 813 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 2: I'll ask you whether it's doable in a moment as 814 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:28,760 Speaker 2: an idea. 815 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:30,920 Speaker 14: Do you like it? No? 816 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 19: I don't like it as an idea. I just don't 817 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 19: think it's practical. But it's not helpful for young people 818 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 19: navigating digital spaces either. 819 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:41,320 Speaker 2: No, exactly. 820 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 19: All the excerpts say it's not a good idea. 821 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:45,320 Speaker 2: So it's not a good idea, and it's not even workable. 822 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 2: It's not workable, isn't. I mean if you ask somebody 823 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:48,960 Speaker 2: are they sixteen or eighteen or whatever the case may be, 824 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,719 Speaker 2: they're not going to answer correctly if they don't want to, 825 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 2: are they? 826 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:52,800 Speaker 14: No? 827 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 9: No, I think you. 828 00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:56,360 Speaker 19: Probably had a fake Ida when you were when you 829 00:38:56,400 --> 00:39:00,279 Speaker 19: were younger, you know, so young people will find way 830 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 19: to get onto the channels that they want to get 831 00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 19: onto if it's the popular channel that they want to 832 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 19: be on. 833 00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:08,520 Speaker 2: So can I just congratulate? 834 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:08,759 Speaker 15: Okay? 835 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 2: Do you when you said I had a face ID 836 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 2: when I was younger. When I was younger, they didn't 837 00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 2: have the internet. So I'm a great deal older than 838 00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:16,880 Speaker 2: you clearly think I am. But thank you so much 839 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,480 Speaker 2: for that because you've you've lifted me up immeasurably for 840 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 2: the day. But no, I'm correct and saying no one 841 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:23,919 Speaker 2: anyway has done this, have they? And they just can't. 842 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 19: Well, I was listening to the South Australian Premiere talking 843 00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,879 Speaker 19: about how Florida had had enacted some sort of law, 844 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 19: but you know, you could just drive over the over 845 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 19: the barrier line and you're in a new state and 846 00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 19: you can access again. So yeah, like I say, provision 847 00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:45,840 Speaker 19: doesn't work. Fixing the core of the problem, which is 848 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:50,360 Speaker 19: the content, which is the you know, the platforms allowing 849 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 19: access to that content, that's really important. And so I 850 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,600 Speaker 19: think it's worth while putting pressure on the platforms and saying, hey, 851 00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:58,839 Speaker 19: you need to be doing more to protect young people 852 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:02,080 Speaker 19: under the age of six, but banning them will just 853 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 19: drive their behavior into secret and it means that they 854 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,360 Speaker 19: might not be talking to the appearance about some of 855 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:08,440 Speaker 19: the best stuff they're seeing. 856 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:12,120 Speaker 2: Well done, Katie, appreciate your expertise.

Speaking of social media and tech, the 884 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:29,759 Speaker 2: cockup that the Inland Revenue Department, as engineer gives us say, 885 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:32,000 Speaker 2: has given us a good insight into how the public service, 886 00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:34,680 Speaker 2: apart from anything else, is run. They hand our information, 887 00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:37,560 Speaker 2: your information, my information over to Google and Facebook. 888 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:37,560 Speaker 13: Et cetera. 889 00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 2: They do this so they can better tailor their advertising. 890 00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:43,719 Speaker 2: Even at this point, this early point, surely there's a 891 00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 2: couple of large red flags here. Firstly, I would argue 892 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,279 Speaker 2: there's a patriotic duty for all government funded agencies to 893 00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:52,560 Speaker 2: at least pause and ask themselves. Given the relationship with 894 00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:55,200 Speaker 2: social media and the local media and ripping off of 895 00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:58,400 Speaker 2: locally created content and making money from it. Whether the 896 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 2: government should be throwing more at them, while at the 897 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,520 Speaker 2: same time allegedly trying to cut some sort of revenue 898 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 2: deal where the international players come to the table and 899 00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:09,239 Speaker 2: actually pay for the content they're ripping off. Secondly, and 900 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 2: more importantly, the info the IRD has has been gained 901 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 2: by compulsion. We have no choice but to hand over 902 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:18,799 Speaker 2: our details to them. At what point did they gain 903 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 2: the right to on sell them to another party, far 904 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 2: less an international one with as the record shows, and 905 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 2: multiple jurisdictions, not a lot of interest in behaving in 906 00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:28,760 Speaker 2: a way that doesn't attract an outsized amount of attention 907 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 2: to the ways of doing business. I mean, from America 908 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,760 Speaker 2: to Europe to Britain. How many times have these players 909 00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:36,439 Speaker 2: been called before committees and tribunals and inquiries to answer 910 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:40,440 Speaker 2: questions about their practices, records, business approach, revenue generation in general, 911 00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:44,920 Speaker 2: omni presence in people's lives. IRD will tell you our 912 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:47,360 Speaker 2: details are safe, The names, the ages, the serial numbers 913 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:49,319 Speaker 2: are confidential. They've been hashed. I think that's the term. 914 00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:52,719 Speaker 2: That's where they take letters and all that sort of 915 00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:54,719 Speaker 2: thing and turn them into numbers and keys. But have 916 00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:58,840 Speaker 2: they are they really now? People, especially those on social media, 917 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:01,359 Speaker 2: they give them a lot of themselves the way, of course, 918 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 2: on a regular basis, often not even realizing it. But 919 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 2: the idea are different. We had no choice, we weren't asked, 920 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 2: We didn't give permission. That needs to be addressed asking. 921 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,719 Speaker 2: That's before we come to TikTok. I've been on the 922 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:17,719 Speaker 2: TikTok this morning. Actually, somebody said to me, Hey, have 923 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 2: you seen TikTok Ministry of Education TikTok page.

What losers are following the education departments 926 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 2: TikTok page thirteen thousand? 927 00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:32,360 Speaker 22: Well, how many people work for the education? 928 00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:36,000 Speaker 2: Very good point. Very good points can pulsory when you 929 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 2: join six hundred and eighty three likes. They're posting stories 930 00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:43,160 Speaker 2: of students achieving stuff. That's what they do, fair enough, 931 00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:47,160 Speaker 2: a little bit uplifting, nothing wrong with that. They used 932 00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 2: this post caption Besties Please for real or Besties pls 933 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 2: for real to encourage kids to go to school. So 934 00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:57,760 Speaker 2: what they've got is what they've got is a picture. 935 00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:01,560 Speaker 2: It's just a picture. It's a brightly colored picture with 936 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 2: lots of bright fluorescent type colors. There's some white fluffy clouds. 937 00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 2: Nothing's happening in the picture. Is just a photo. It's 938 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:13,280 Speaker 2: not moving. Some white fluffy clouds against a beautiful azure 939 00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:16,880 Speaker 2: blue sky. There's a balloon, little balloon in the distance. 940 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:23,040 Speaker 2: There's some rainbows. Somebody, I assume an aerial specialist with 941 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:25,000 Speaker 2: a plane with smoke coming out in the back, has 942 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:28,400 Speaker 2: scrawled a love heart across the sky. There's a leaping 943 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:32,000 Speaker 2: dolphin coming out from these beautiful clear blue waters. And 944 00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:34,000 Speaker 2: below the waters you can see it's clearly not the 945 00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:37,040 Speaker 2: Great Barrier reef because it's crystal clear, the corals alive, 946 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:39,400 Speaker 2: and there are a beautiful tropical fishes swimming everywhere, not 947 00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:42,719 Speaker 2: swimming because it's a still picture.

Historically, presidential debates have 981 00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:22,400 Speaker 15: not moved the numbers in a huge way, although earlier 982 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 15: this summer in June, we did see a debate obviously 983 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:28,000 Speaker 15: changed the campaign dramatically because it led to the dropout 984 00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:31,120 Speaker 15: of Joe Biden. This is Kamala Harris's first chance to 985 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:34,200 Speaker 15: do something that's rather unscripted. Most of what she has 986 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 15: done so far has been off of a teleprompter behind 987 00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:39,640 Speaker 15: the podium. So for a lot of the American people, 988 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:41,719 Speaker 15: they know her name, but they don't know much about her, 989 00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:43,520 Speaker 15: and this debate may be the first chance to learn. 990 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:46,719 Speaker 2: The Harris interview I watched, it's one of those things. 991 00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:50,160 Speaker 2: She said nothing and walked away from it seemingly unskuyised. 992 00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 2: How much interest is there in the specifics as opposed 993 00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:54,720 Speaker 2: to the vibes. 994 00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 15: Well, I do think people want to know which Kamala 995 00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,400 Speaker 15: Harris were getting here when she ran for president. Before 996 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:04,879 Speaker 15: she ran on quite a liberal or progressive platform. Now 997 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:07,800 Speaker 15: she's saying that she no longer believes in many of 998 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:11,280 Speaker 15: those things. So how she handles those questions tonight about 999 00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:13,760 Speaker 15: you know you believe this? Now you say you don't? 1000 00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:14,480 Speaker 2: You know that? 1001 00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:16,120 Speaker 15: That gives you an idea of what kind of a 1002 00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:18,680 Speaker 15: leader someone would be. So I do think there's some 1003 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,440 Speaker 15: interest in it. Plus, she's obviously Joe Biden's vice president. 1004 00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:25,640 Speaker 15: He's not terribly popular. I'm wondering is she going to 1005 00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:29,280 Speaker 15: separate herself from President Biden in any way by saying, 1006 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:32,480 Speaker 15: for instance, you know, he made this decision, I disagreed 1007 00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:34,920 Speaker 15: with it. I would have done it differently. I suspect 1008 00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:37,000 Speaker 15: something like that's going to have to happen at some point. 1009 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:39,879 Speaker 2: What about the frecking decision? For example? Do Americans look 1010 00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:41,480 Speaker 2: at that and go, she count make up of mind? 1011 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:43,319 Speaker 2: Or do they guy right, she's on the right side 1012 00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:44,960 Speaker 2: of it. Last at least we got there. 1013 00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:48,080 Speaker 15: Well, I think if you specifically live in Pennsylvania, which 1014 00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:52,000 Speaker 15: I regard as the most important state, fracking is a 1015 00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:56,200 Speaker 15: big deal. It has revitalized the state's economy and has 1016 00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:58,640 Speaker 15: you know, been just a huge part of what's going 1017 00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:01,799 Speaker 15: on with the energy his history in Pennsylvania, she used 1018 00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:04,440 Speaker 15: to oppose it because that was the fashionable thing to 1019 00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:07,640 Speaker 15: do on the American left. Now she says she wouldn't 1020 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:10,080 Speaker 15: oppose it because obviously she needs to win the state 1021 00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:13,920 Speaker 15: of Pennsylvania. So again, that plus a number of other topics, 1022 00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:17,359 Speaker 15: how she handles those flip flops is going to tell 1023 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:20,880 Speaker 15: us a lot about her political skill tonight, and Americans 1024 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,840 Speaker 15: are interested in what she has to say about that. Obviously, 1025 00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:27,480 Speaker 15: liberals or progressives want a ban on fracking, but most 1026 00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:29,680 Speaker 15: people think we should be producing our own energy here. 1027 00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:32,360 Speaker 15: So it's a tightrope for her to try to balance 1028 00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:35,520 Speaker 15: what her base would want versus what perhaps swing voters 1029 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:36,520 Speaker 15: in Pennsylvania would want. 1030 00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:39,440 Speaker 2: You mentioned Pennsylvania one of the important swing sites, and 1031 00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:41,800 Speaker 2: looking at an averageable the polls, they're all within the 1032 00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:44,800 Speaker 2: madin of era. Is it really that tight? Do you believe? 1033 00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:45,840 Speaker 2: The polls in general? 1034 00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:49,200 Speaker 15: Yeah, very close race across the board in all the 1035 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:54,239 Speaker 15: swing states Pennsylvania included. It is very close. Nationally, there 1036 00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:56,680 Speaker 15: have been three national high quality polls in the last 1037 00:48:56,719 --> 00:48:59,440 Speaker 15: couple of days, one had Trump up, one, one had 1038 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:01,640 Speaker 15: him down one one, and one had it tied. And 1039 00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:05,080 Speaker 15: so it is very close, much closer, frankly than the 1040 00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:09,160 Speaker 15: polling showed in twenty twenty or twenty sixteen. So we're 1041 00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:11,520 Speaker 15: in a very, very very close race. Now. Some people 1042 00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:14,480 Speaker 15: think that favors Trump because there are people who are 1043 00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:16,320 Speaker 15: just hard to poll who end up showing up to 1044 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:18,680 Speaker 15: vote for Trump, and he tends to do better than 1045 00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:21,279 Speaker 15: he polls. But I regarded as close, and I think 1046 00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:23,680 Speaker 15: either campaign could win any of these swing states that 1047 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:24,200 Speaker 15: are in play. 1048 00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:28,080 Speaker 2: What about Trump and is attacking of her character, of 1049 00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:30,960 Speaker 2: her personality, and whether that grows his vote, do you 1050 00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:32,320 Speaker 2: place weight on that or not. 1051 00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:34,680 Speaker 15: I think he should stick to the issues. I think 1052 00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:37,960 Speaker 15: if he gets into a personality contest, he's unlikely to prevail. 1053 00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:41,120 Speaker 15: I think if he gets into a contest about who 1054 00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:45,239 Speaker 15: would represent change in America, he's likely to win the race. 1055 00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:48,120 Speaker 15: Most people want change, they don't think the country's off 1056 00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:50,840 Speaker 15: on the right track. They're unhappy about the economic policies 1057 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,840 Speaker 15: of the current administration. If you stick to those things, 1058 00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:56,319 Speaker 15: and if you're Donald Trump and you say, well, why 1059 00:49:56,360 --> 00:49:58,239 Speaker 15: would you leave the same people in charge that you're 1060 00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:00,880 Speaker 15: already mad at. I think that's a hand to get 1061 00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:04,960 Speaker 15: into a personality contest or to an insult contest with 1062 00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:07,040 Speaker 15: someone I don't think serves as purposes tonight. 1063 00:50:07,239 --> 00:50:09,360 Speaker 2: Can you call it right now with any level of 1064 00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:10,160 Speaker 2: confidence or not? 1065 00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:10,480 Speaker 23: Not? 1066 00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:12,759 Speaker 2: The debate the rice, absolutely not. 1067 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:16,400 Speaker 15: I don't have any level of confidence. I wouldn't hazard 1068 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:18,080 Speaker 15: to make a guess. I think it is a total 1069 00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:21,320 Speaker 15: jump ball. I will say I think Donald Trump is 1070 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:25,240 Speaker 15: in better shape today than he was in either twenty 1071 00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:28,719 Speaker 15: sixteen or twenty twenty. In both of those races, he 1072 00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:31,439 Speaker 15: was behind, very few people thought he had a chance 1073 00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:33,759 Speaker 15: to win. That is not the case this time. By 1074 00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:36,439 Speaker 15: some measures, He's more popular and thought of better today 1075 00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:39,920 Speaker 15: than he was in either of those races. So I 1076 00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:42,320 Speaker 15: think Trump's in better shape. But it's a total total 1077 00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:45,920 Speaker 15: jump ball, and either campaign could prevail, and this debate 1078 00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:48,680 Speaker 15: tonight is going to be one of the most monumental 1079 00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:50,640 Speaker 15: points in the race because it may be the last 1080 00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:51,680 Speaker 15: time we see them together. 1081 00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:54,120 Speaker 2: Indeed, Scott, appreciate your time. Go well, well, that's Scott 1082 00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:56,799 Speaker 2: Jennings form of special assistant to George Bush. You see 1083 00:50:56,840 --> 00:51:00,200 Speaker 2: him occasionally on CNN one PM New Zealand out time 1084 00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:03,800 Speaker 2: eighteen away from eight pass by Kadrian Nui to Aston 1085 00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:06,759 Speaker 2: sixty four million per years. That report correct, apparently so 1086 00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:09,360 Speaker 2: thirty million pounds. He signed up long term become a 1087 00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:12,560 Speaker 2: shareholder within the F one company or part of the company. 1088 00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:15,240 Speaker 2: There's a video out there. They had a press conference 1089 00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:18,640 Speaker 2: with Lawrence Stroll in front of some assembled guests. He 1090 00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:20,880 Speaker 2: will transform. I alluded to a piece that you can 1091 00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:23,120 Speaker 2: look up on the BBC recently that gives an insight 1092 00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:25,680 Speaker 2: into who he is, why he's so valuable, why so 1093 00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:27,839 Speaker 2: many people were chasing him for Ari was chasing him, 1094 00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:30,160 Speaker 2: Aston were chasing him. He got fed up at Red Bull, 1095 00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:33,040 Speaker 2: so left. He's a good story. He's a fascinating individual, Mike. 1096 00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:36,560 Speaker 2: A benefit of the referendum on local MURRAI wards may 1097 00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:38,840 Speaker 2: increase vote to turn out next year. This could be 1098 00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:40,680 Speaker 2: a bonus. What do you reckon, Paul? I think you're right, 1099 00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:43,359 Speaker 2: and if I don't think you're right, I hope you're right. 1100 00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:45,719 Speaker 2: The more people who vote in local body elections. Part 1101 00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:48,960 Speaker 2: of the reason I'm absolutely one hundred present convinced is 1102 00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,280 Speaker 2: we are in the mess where in terms of councils 1103 00:51:51,320 --> 00:51:53,520 Speaker 2: and debt and the downgrading of credit ratings and all 1104 00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:56,520 Speaker 2: the other shambles that's going on is because no one cares. 1105 00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:59,800 Speaker 2: And when nobody cares, the crazies get let loose. And 1106 00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:01,960 Speaker 2: look what the crazies do when we're not paying attention 1107 00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:03,399 Speaker 2: or participating. 1108 00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:08,239 Speaker 1: Seventeen to two, The Vike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast 1109 00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:11,160 Speaker 1: on iHeartRadio powered by the News talks at me. 1110 00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:14,880 Speaker 2: Poor old Kerry's very upset this morning. She's just accosted 1111 00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:16,319 Speaker 2: me in the kitchen, which is not the first time 1112 00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:18,399 Speaker 2: that's happened. I can tell you, but the details will 1113 00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:20,920 Speaker 2: be in the book eventually. Dave Grohl's had a child 1114 00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:25,080 Speaker 2: out of wedlock, she's claiming this morning, and exactly exactly, Glynn, exactly. 1115 00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:28,480 Speaker 2: His head's almost fallen off his shoulders. Dave Groll, lovable guy, 1116 00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:31,880 Speaker 2: likable guy, child out of wetlock. You think you know people? 1117 00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:36,800 Speaker 2: The lakes are filling up. I don't want to be 1118 00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:38,600 Speaker 2: all down about the weather this morning, so I'm going 1119 00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:41,560 Speaker 2: to give you something uplifting. Meridian. They've got some hydro lakes. 1120 00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:44,560 Speaker 2: They like them full. They're above their ninety one year 1121 00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:47,120 Speaker 2: average for the first time since May so this is 1122 00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:51,480 Speaker 2: good poo khaki that's above. That's the upper couple of 1123 00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:53,960 Speaker 2: meters since its lowest point in late August, there's a 1124 00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:56,440 Speaker 2: further eighty to one hundred and sixty meals of rain coming, 1125 00:52:57,120 --> 00:53:00,839 Speaker 2: huge inflows into Manapuri and Tiana both At the top 1126 00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:03,080 Speaker 2: of the arrange is another two hundred mills of brain forecast. 1127 00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:04,719 Speaker 2: It rains in that part of the world a lot. 1128 00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:08,200 Speaker 2: We can rely on strong generation out of Manipuri because 1129 00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:10,759 Speaker 2: of all of that. Snow storage is helping the way 1130 00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:13,520 Speaker 2: Tacki catchment. That's increased to eighty six percent on average, 1131 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:16,920 Speaker 2: up from eighty three percent last week. Snow milk contributes 1132 00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:20,680 Speaker 2: a lot. The wind farms blowing blowing forty one gigs. 1133 00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:25,960 Speaker 2: How's your win farm forty one gigs? Are when farm youtiful? No, 1134 00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:28,440 Speaker 2: I wouldn't have a clue what that means, but if 1135 00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:30,600 Speaker 2: you say it the right way, we get uplifted by it. Now, 1136 00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:33,000 Speaker 2: that brings me to the weirdest story I saw yesterday, 1137 00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:35,600 Speaker 2: and it involves Gareth Kennan, who I've got a lot 1138 00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:38,480 Speaker 2: of time for. He works for in for Metrics, and 1139 00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:40,880 Speaker 2: he worked out where it's cheaper in the country to 1140 00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:43,719 Speaker 2: rent than buy. And the answer is nowhere which gives 1141 00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:45,759 Speaker 2: you an insight or know where you want to live. 1142 00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:49,520 Speaker 2: And that's the controversial part of this comment, which gives 1143 00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:51,279 Speaker 2: you an insight into why we're so desperate to own 1144 00:53:51,360 --> 00:53:53,960 Speaker 2: houses in this country. We love owning houses. That will 1145 00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:57,239 Speaker 2: never change. In the subsession with Archstome expansion to own 1146 00:53:57,239 --> 00:53:59,320 Speaker 2: a home, we bleed to own a home. So the 1147 00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:04,120 Speaker 2: more expensive parts of the country Queenstown, obviously, Tapo, Hastings, Auckland, 1148 00:54:04,160 --> 00:54:08,920 Speaker 2: Central Otigo, Queenstown, it's three times as expensive to rent 1149 00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:14,320 Speaker 2: than it is to three times expensive to own that 1150 00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,880 Speaker 2: it is to rent. So where is it better cheaper 1151 00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:20,560 Speaker 2: to own than rent? There are only a couple of places. 1152 00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:23,160 Speaker 2: One of them is called Cara and one of them 1153 00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:28,680 Speaker 2: is called Wairoa. Can I venture the slightly controversial view 1154 00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:30,839 Speaker 2: that these are not places you necessarily want to live, 1155 00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:33,759 Speaker 2: and even Gareth points this out. He says, unless you're 1156 00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:38,560 Speaker 2: particularly confident in your long term employment and ability to 1157 00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:45,279 Speaker 2: earn money. The fireplaces where buying is cheaper than renting Wairoa, Cara, Ruapehu, 1158 00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:49,360 Speaker 2: Buller and Taua. And even then it's it's touch and go. 1159 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:50,719 Speaker 15: Well, what's wrong with I. 1160 00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:52,920 Speaker 22: Thought that's where Matt Mitchell was always going to Wada. 1161 00:54:53,160 --> 00:54:54,680 Speaker 22: I thought he loves it there. 1162 00:54:54,560 --> 00:54:57,239 Speaker 2: Because they've had some troubles cleanned. Is why Mark in 1163 00:54:57,360 --> 00:55:02,400 Speaker 2: his capacity as Emergency Management Minister, has been going to Waira. 1164 00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:05,320 Speaker 2: So it is it is cheaper there. But so what 1165 00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:10,040 Speaker 2: it says, essentially, there's nowhere in this country. Sorry, ten 1166 00:55:10,120 --> 00:55:11,200 Speaker 2: minutes away from eight. 1167 00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:16,840 Speaker 1: Mike cost gilbreakfast. It's with al Vida Retirement Communities news dogs. 1168 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:19,239 Speaker 2: Head been Mike. The weather's fabulous where I'm walking in Riba. 1169 00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:22,040 Speaker 2: Janet absolutely of no use to us whatsoever. I mean, 1170 00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:24,040 Speaker 2: have you've seen a hydro lake in Orea lately? Have 1171 00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:26,000 Speaker 2: you got any snow melt? No, you haven't, Janus, And 1172 00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:28,719 Speaker 2: you're not helping the power supply. And unless you're not 1173 00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:31,600 Speaker 2: helping the power supply, we're not interested. Step it away 1174 00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:33,160 Speaker 2: from it. So we get a look today what might 1175 00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:35,680 Speaker 2: be the future of transports being developed quietly in christ 1176 00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:38,800 Speaker 2: Uage over the past five years. Whoosh, I don't know 1177 00:55:38,880 --> 00:55:43,160 Speaker 2: that were that sort of emphasis. Whish it's a mix 1178 00:55:43,239 --> 00:55:46,680 Speaker 2: of ride hailing and urban gondola anyway. The CEO is 1179 00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:48,719 Speaker 2: doctor Chris Ellington, who has well us. Chris very good 1180 00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:51,480 Speaker 2: morning to you. Hey, good mind make it's a lot, 1181 00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:54,640 Speaker 2: it's a lot of it's a lot of cable. You 1182 00:55:54,719 --> 00:55:56,839 Speaker 2: don't like, you don't like the anyway, there's a lot 1183 00:55:56,880 --> 00:55:58,719 Speaker 2: of cable, isn't it. I mean we're we're in Christ. 1184 00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:00,839 Speaker 2: You to know you're starting out in Queen Done. Where 1185 00:56:00,920 --> 00:56:03,799 Speaker 2: in Christ would you envisage it going from? And two? 1186 00:56:04,760 --> 00:56:04,880 Speaker 12: Oh? 1187 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:07,520 Speaker 18: I know definitely. So we're we credit washed to connect 1188 00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:09,840 Speaker 18: key locations to key locations to things like from the 1189 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:14,160 Speaker 18: airports downtown or connecting Takaha a new sports stadium down 1190 00:56:14,239 --> 00:56:18,640 Speaker 18: to the sports and entertainment area around around the Avon River, 1191 00:56:18,880 --> 00:56:22,360 Speaker 18: or connecting connecting hotels the hospitals to remote car parks. 1192 00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:24,760 Speaker 18: Those are the sort of key connections we're looking to create. 1193 00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:27,440 Speaker 2: Does it get to a point where it's two complicated 1194 00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:30,560 Speaker 2: cable wise, No, because we're. 1195 00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:32,879 Speaker 18: Working on really simple infrastructures. We took a real first 1196 00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:35,080 Speaker 18: principle to approach and break it down to keep the 1197 00:56:35,160 --> 00:56:38,840 Speaker 18: infrastructure really simple, really cheap and cost effective with low maintenance, 1198 00:56:39,080 --> 00:56:41,799 Speaker 18: and then put smart vehicles moving on that simple infrastructure. 1199 00:56:42,120 --> 00:56:45,040 Speaker 18: So long cable spans about one hundred and fifty meters, 1200 00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:47,640 Speaker 18: so there's mineral towers and then rail is to be 1201 00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:51,279 Speaker 18: able to navigate around through the complicated urban environment that 1202 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:53,000 Speaker 18: have to sit an urban environment and give you a 1203 00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:54,120 Speaker 18: great experience when you're on it. 1204 00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:58,200 Speaker 2: And the cost per meter versus an uber versus a tram, 1205 00:56:58,400 --> 00:57:01,040 Speaker 2: versus a bus versus a train, So the. 1206 00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:03,759 Speaker 18: Cost to install it's around about five million dollars a 1207 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:06,760 Speaker 18: kilometer to install, depending on the complexity of the network 1208 00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:09,080 Speaker 18: in him and the little stations you put. Compare that 1209 00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:11,120 Speaker 18: to a road in an urban space, you're around about 1210 00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:13,880 Speaker 18: twenty million a kilometer to build a road, and I 1211 00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:16,120 Speaker 18: think light rail and Auckland was north of one hundred 1212 00:57:16,160 --> 00:57:19,520 Speaker 18: million to kilometer. It's a really cost effective re infrastructure 1213 00:57:19,560 --> 00:57:20,000 Speaker 18: to install. 1214 00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:22,880 Speaker 2: And the administration of getting it ticked off is that 1215 00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:23,960 Speaker 2: easy or harder? 1216 00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:27,240 Speaker 18: Or that's actually not too bad? I mean sort of 1217 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:32,320 Speaker 18: works for all the legislations, does everyone. But because we're 1218 00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:34,920 Speaker 18: operating above the land and in the year rights, we've 1219 00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:37,760 Speaker 18: worked really closely with Locker Katahi and the Ministry of 1220 00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:40,960 Speaker 18: Transport and we have security of rights for the project 1221 00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:43,280 Speaker 18: we're putting down in Quenstown to operate above that space, 1222 00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:45,960 Speaker 18: and we is actually quite the legislation to allow things 1223 00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:48,440 Speaker 18: like this to work in the existing roading corridors. 1224 00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:51,680 Speaker 2: How does it fit in with Amazon delivering pizzas by drone. 1225 00:57:52,520 --> 00:57:55,600 Speaker 18: Well, the thing with delivering drones or delivering robots is 1226 00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:57,160 Speaker 18: the robots still have to get close enough to your 1227 00:57:57,160 --> 00:57:59,800 Speaker 18: house to be able to deliver your packages. And the 1228 00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:02,600 Speaker 18: way most of Amazon systems work and others as well 1229 00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:05,720 Speaker 18: have a big distribution network are hub by the epport, 1230 00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:08,080 Speaker 18: I mean smaller ones located around the city. So they've 1231 00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:09,840 Speaker 18: still got to get pass us from the big ones 1232 00:58:09,880 --> 00:58:12,320 Speaker 18: the small ones. And that's where watching can work as well. 1233 00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:15,840 Speaker 18: Get those delivery vans off the road, moving things closer 1234 00:58:15,880 --> 00:58:19,240 Speaker 18: to the smaller distribution thinkers, freeing up room on the 1235 00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:22,560 Speaker 18: road for more youth from you and Meeter do a 1236 00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:23,160 Speaker 18: daily commute. 1237 00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:24,800 Speaker 2: Give me a date when you can come on this 1238 00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:27,919 Speaker 2: program and say it's working. It's the jump on board. 1239 00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:31,120 Speaker 18: So the technology is working. We've got there working at 1240 00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:33,440 Speaker 18: quarter scale again and our at top suit of tystem 1241 00:58:33,480 --> 00:58:35,680 Speaker 18: Or they're actually here in crash Hitch and then we 1242 00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:37,959 Speaker 18: early next year we'll be doing shovels in the ground 1243 00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:40,360 Speaker 18: and in Queen's Down to build the first pilot projects 1244 00:58:40,520 --> 00:58:43,439 Speaker 18: that should should be ritable by twenty seven. 1245 00:58:43,720 --> 00:58:44,800 Speaker 2: Why is it top secret? 1246 00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:49,880 Speaker 18: We're working with a very large US corporate to help 1247 00:58:49,920 --> 00:58:52,600 Speaker 18: them solve some issues on their corporate campuses where they're 1248 00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:56,040 Speaker 18: trying to move one hundred thousand people around emphasis every day.

Alexander James O'Connor, who's better known as 1273 01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:26,720 Speaker 2: Rex Orange County. It was quite a cool name. He's 1274 01:00:26,800 --> 01:00:31,680 Speaker 2: twenty six. He is you'll be surprised to learn, melancholic 1275 01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:36,560 Speaker 2: and introspective, and they're calling him a gen z. Randy Newman, 1276 01:00:36,680 --> 01:00:39,840 Speaker 2: and I can tell you I knew Randy Newman, and 1277 01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:47,800 Speaker 2: you know Randy Newman. To paraphrase, I'm going to write 1278 01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:50,040 Speaker 2: it down. It's a lot of tracks. There's too many 1279 01:00:50,120 --> 01:00:56,200 Speaker 2: tracks for this, sixteen tracks and fifty two minutes of 1280 01:00:56,480 --> 01:01:00,240 Speaker 2: toe tapping fun. It is eight minutes past eight for 1281 01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:02,960 Speaker 2: Politics Wednesday, Mark Mintell, Jimmy Anderson, very good morning to you. 1282 01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:07,200 Speaker 2: Good morning right now. A couple of quick ones. Actually, 1283 01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:09,600 Speaker 2: didn't I ask you this without being too disresponded. Actually 1284 01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:12,320 Speaker 2: I'm not being disrespectable to anyone. So I'm watching you 1285 01:01:12,400 --> 01:01:15,800 Speaker 2: guys in Parliament yesterday. You're paying respects to the Maury King. Fabulous, 1286 01:01:15,880 --> 01:01:18,600 Speaker 2: that's what Parliament does. Why then does the whole day 1287 01:01:18,680 --> 01:01:19,160 Speaker 2: have to stop? 1288 01:01:21,400 --> 01:01:23,600 Speaker 10: I just can't out of a mark of respect, like 1289 01:01:23,720 --> 01:01:27,320 Speaker 10: it's a I guess it's a it's sort of customary 1290 01:01:27,400 --> 01:01:31,440 Speaker 10: really when a significant person passes away that you do 1291 01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:34,720 Speaker 10: those do those commmentary speeches and then and then then 1292 01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:37,400 Speaker 10: we're durne the day.

I think. 1358 01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:26,040 Speaker 23: No, I think that. Well, actually, when you look at 1359 01:04:26,080 --> 01:04:28,480 Speaker 23: what the owner of the cafes that they closed. When 1360 01:04:28,520 --> 01:04:30,800 Speaker 23: he was asked about he said, the big problem that 1361 01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:32,760 Speaker 23: we've really noticed over the last few years is that 1362 01:04:32,840 --> 01:04:35,440 Speaker 23: people are working from home, and of course the cycle 1363 01:04:35,480 --> 01:04:37,320 Speaker 23: ways have been a mess of disruption for us for 1364 01:04:37,480 --> 01:04:39,280 Speaker 23: customers getting to our business. 1365 01:04:40,080 --> 01:04:42,320 Speaker 2: So I just wonder, is what you're saying, is what 1366 01:04:42,400 --> 01:04:44,200 Speaker 2: everyone's saying. It's a perfect storm. So by the time 1367 01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:46,120 Speaker 2: you got the cycle ways and the busways and the 1368 01:04:46,200 --> 01:04:48,880 Speaker 2: construction and the people working from home and the layoffs 1369 01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:51,600 Speaker 2: and the economy, it's no wonder they. 1370 01:04:51,560 --> 01:04:53,760 Speaker 10: Are with The people don't have that extra money in 1371 01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:56,720 Speaker 10: their pockets. So nack Mail's on the Wellington Show is 1372 01:04:57,040 --> 01:05:00,439 Speaker 10: in the hospitality, he'll know really well that it's really 1373 01:05:00,640 --> 01:05:02,680 Speaker 10: tough for people with that extra money to come out 1374 01:05:02,720 --> 01:05:05,240 Speaker 10: and spend it in a restaurant or a cafe. They're 1375 01:05:05,280 --> 01:05:07,280 Speaker 10: keeping that money to pay for their bills and to 1376 01:05:07,360 --> 01:05:09,880 Speaker 10: pay for their groceries, and that directly impacts on the 1377 01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:12,320 Speaker 10: Wellington economy. On top of that, we've had a number 1378 01:05:12,360 --> 01:05:14,439 Speaker 10: of people laid off, So I think those two things 1379 01:05:14,520 --> 01:05:16,680 Speaker 10: combined have been a big reason why there's been a 1380 01:05:16,720 --> 01:05:17,160 Speaker 10: down team. 1381 01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:19,240 Speaker 2: Actually, before I forget Ginny is it true that you 1382 01:05:19,440 --> 01:05:22,920 Speaker 2: ring Nick Mills in the morning as Tinia from her 1383 01:05:22,960 --> 01:05:24,320 Speaker 2: tire Ti or is that just a rumor? 1384 01:05:25,960 --> 01:05:27,360 Speaker 10: I'd be Sheryl from the heart. 1385 01:05:30,680 --> 01:05:33,320 Speaker 2: More in a moment, Ginny Anderson, Mark Mitchell thirteen Past. 1386 01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:38,560 Speaker 1: The Mike Hosking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, Cowed 1387 01:05:38,640 --> 01:05:39,360 Speaker 1: by News Talks. 1388 01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:42,320 Speaker 2: It be caught a past eight.

I don't want to, but I have to, 1462 01:08:55,760 --> 01:08:59,000 Speaker 2: and therefore they should be guarding that, shouldn't they bill 1463 01:08:59,439 --> 01:09:00,120 Speaker 2: They can only. 1464 01:09:00,040 --> 01:09:00,400 Speaker 16: Who is it. 1465 01:09:00,960 --> 01:09:03,000 Speaker 10: They can only use it for the purpose that you've 1466 01:09:03,040 --> 01:09:05,280 Speaker 10: given it to them for. That's the general rule. 1467 01:09:06,680 --> 01:09:10,120 Speaker 23: And I think that theresienm breach or they haven't handled information. 1468 01:09:10,280 --> 01:09:13,240 Speaker 23: Probably your wite expectations that Simon would of course so 1469 01:09:13,400 --> 01:09:13,840 Speaker 23: catched on that. 1470 01:09:14,160 --> 01:09:16,479 Speaker 2: We'll have to call Simon Watts social media in general, 1471 01:09:16,520 --> 01:09:18,879 Speaker 2: seeing you're talking about committees and stuff. Jenny are Australia 1472 01:09:18,880 --> 01:09:21,240 Speaker 2: across the Tasman of announced legislation. It won't work, but 1473 01:09:21,280 --> 01:09:24,479 Speaker 2: they're going to ban kids under sixteen from accessing social media. 1474 01:09:25,200 --> 01:09:26,840 Speaker 2: Could we look at that in this country? Would there 1475 01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:28,679 Speaker 2: be any interest in looking at that in this country? 1476 01:09:28,760 --> 01:09:30,080 Speaker 2: Is it even remotely possible? 1477 01:09:30,360 --> 01:09:33,360 Speaker 10: Do you think it's going to be incredibly difficult to police? 1478 01:09:34,200 --> 01:09:36,000 Speaker 10: And a lot of that is getting in the space 1479 01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:38,519 Speaker 10: of pearance as well. So parents still have a role 1480 01:09:38,640 --> 01:09:41,479 Speaker 10: to determine what their kids are seeing, and I think 1481 01:09:41,560 --> 01:09:44,000 Speaker 10: the state getting involved and that too closely is going 1482 01:09:44,040 --> 01:09:46,920 Speaker 10: to be incredibly difficult to try and enforce. 1483 01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:50,120 Speaker 2: Mark the Windstone story, the jobs lost in the center 1484 01:09:50,200 --> 01:09:53,280 Speaker 2: of the North Island, where does that blame lies? That 1485 01:09:53,439 --> 01:09:55,599 Speaker 2: just an industry that's in trouble? Is that the power 1486 01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:58,960 Speaker 2: business that's bugging in this country? Is it the economy? 1487 01:09:59,080 --> 01:09:59,479 Speaker 18: What is it? 1488 01:10:00,880 --> 01:10:04,040 Speaker 23: It sounds like a combination. I mean, obviously the you know, 1489 01:10:04,160 --> 01:10:06,880 Speaker 23: the electricity price is affected, there's no doubt about that. 1490 01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:09,400 Speaker 23: But I just I was listening to the show earlier. 1491 01:10:09,479 --> 01:10:11,960 Speaker 23: I think you made absolutely the best point, and that 1492 01:10:12,160 --> 01:10:15,439 Speaker 23: is the company itself needs to front up and explain 1493 01:10:15,960 --> 01:10:16,840 Speaker 23: actually what's happened. 1494 01:10:17,880 --> 01:10:21,000 Speaker 2: That's brilliant cool, you know. 1495 01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:22,479 Speaker 23: I just think that that's the only way that we're 1496 01:10:22,479 --> 01:10:25,240 Speaker 23: going to get absolute clarity on why that. Obviously, it's 1497 01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:27,920 Speaker 23: awful for the people that have lost their jobs. You 1498 01:10:28,040 --> 01:10:30,920 Speaker 23: know that the area has been hit hard over recent years. 1499 01:10:31,760 --> 01:10:34,880 Speaker 23: The good news is we're starting to see inflation coming down, 1500 01:10:35,160 --> 01:10:37,240 Speaker 23: come down, We're starting to see interest rates come down, 1501 01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:40,200 Speaker 23: the confidence starting to come back, and the economy will 1502 01:10:40,200 --> 01:10:41,800 Speaker 23: stick it up to get going, I hope. 1503 01:10:41,880 --> 01:10:45,639 Speaker 2: So, speaking of which, Jinny Chris Hopkins and this idea 1504 01:10:46,160 --> 01:10:48,320 Speaker 2: that we need some CGT or some wealth text and 1505 01:10:48,360 --> 01:10:50,840 Speaker 2: you guys are going to go to twenty six with something. 1506 01:10:51,520 --> 01:10:54,280 Speaker 2: Do you think New Zealand does hand on heart really 1507 01:10:54,400 --> 01:10:56,320 Speaker 2: want a conversation about being taxed even more? 1508 01:10:57,200 --> 01:10:58,880 Speaker 10: I think New Zealanders do want to talk about the 1509 01:10:58,920 --> 01:11:00,880 Speaker 10: fact we have a problem with it tech system, that 1510 01:11:00,960 --> 01:11:04,360 Speaker 10: we've got an aging population and you can't keep cutting 1511 01:11:04,439 --> 01:11:07,160 Speaker 10: stuff worth still being able to provide the same levaw 1512 01:11:07,240 --> 01:11:09,840 Speaker 10: of services.

The 1578 01:14:48,680 --> 01:14:52,719 Speaker 1: Mic Hosking Breakfast with Bailey's real Estate, your local experts 1579 01:14:52,720 --> 01:14:55,800 Speaker 1: across residential, commercial and rural news Talks d B. 1580 01:14:56,000 --> 01:14:58,479 Speaker 2: If youve us a bit on Gregor Connas a hurry 1581 01:14:58,720 --> 01:15:03,040 Speaker 2: MP out of Wellington, he's busy trying to defend Wellington's vibrancy. 1582 01:15:04,080 --> 01:15:07,720 Speaker 2: He regularly swims in the Harbor's and we got the 1583 01:15:07,800 --> 01:15:10,240 Speaker 2: insight from Mark and Jinny that he's quite the athlete. 1584 01:15:10,280 --> 01:15:14,120 Speaker 2: Obviously he'd did somebody said he'd run somewhere and somebody 1585 01:15:14,120 --> 01:15:16,960 Speaker 2: said he played the rugby he's unbothered by pollution or 1586 01:15:17,040 --> 01:15:21,360 Speaker 2: sewage warnings. So I'm wondering if he's leaping over the 1587 01:15:21,640 --> 01:15:24,280 Speaker 2: boundaries of responsibility there. Because I think it's a local MP. 1588 01:15:24,400 --> 01:15:26,080 Speaker 2: I think you've got to adhere to at least in 1589 01:15:26,200 --> 01:15:29,080 Speaker 2: some way shape or form sewage warnings. If you're going 1590 01:15:29,120 --> 01:15:30,880 Speaker 2: to be an MP and you see a sewage warning 1591 01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:33,920 Speaker 2: sign and you go, oh, well, I'm Greg O'Connor, I 1592 01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:36,840 Speaker 2: don't worry about those, then that's going to send a 1593 01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:39,720 Speaker 2: message around the wider community. And when people get ill, 1594 01:15:40,479 --> 01:15:43,240 Speaker 2: then there's someday, oh Greg, that's because Greg. We all 1595 01:15:43,280 --> 01:15:45,679 Speaker 2: swam in the harbor. Because Greg told us to rejected 1596 01:15:45,720 --> 01:15:48,439 Speaker 2: the notion that Wellington was dying, he would happen to 1597 01:15:48,479 --> 01:15:52,880 Speaker 2: be holiday there. I don't think that's true. I don't 1598 01:15:52,920 --> 01:15:56,320 Speaker 2: think anybody holidays voluntarily in Wellington. It's nothing wrong with 1599 01:15:56,400 --> 01:15:58,560 Speaker 2: living there. I lived there for ten years, but I 1600 01:15:58,680 --> 01:16:01,240 Speaker 2: don't know anybody at a people who go to visit 1601 01:16:01,360 --> 01:16:04,280 Speaker 2: family members.

How many people could you line up right here, 1615 01:16:43,760 --> 01:16:45,840 Speaker 2: right now that believe that that's actually going to be 1616 01:16:45,880 --> 01:16:46,599 Speaker 2: a workable thing. 1617 01:16:47,960 --> 01:16:50,880 Speaker 14: Yeah, that said that one of the questions. But I 1618 01:16:50,960 --> 01:16:55,839 Speaker 14: think what we're seeing, Mike is a groundswell of support 1619 01:16:56,080 --> 01:17:00,400 Speaker 14: from families and parents. Now that technically might be an ishoot, 1620 01:17:00,439 --> 01:17:03,519 Speaker 14: but I think what the argument is from those like 1621 01:17:03,640 --> 01:17:07,000 Speaker 14: Peter malanowskis the South Australian Premiere, is that this is 1622 01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:12,000 Speaker 14: going to empower parents that once you get one, two 1623 01:17:12,280 --> 01:17:17,680 Speaker 14: three a group saying okay, your kids, I'm sorry, you 1624 01:17:17,800 --> 01:17:22,240 Speaker 14: can't have social media to this age and then gradually 1625 01:17:22,360 --> 01:17:25,599 Speaker 14: it shifts the community discourse as well. So you've got 1626 01:17:25,640 --> 01:17:28,280 Speaker 14: the technical question. Yes, some kids will get around it 1627 01:17:28,400 --> 01:17:31,519 Speaker 14: like they do with smoking or drinking alcohol, but it 1628 01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:34,439 Speaker 14: doesn't mean you shouldn't have the benchmark or the rule. 1629 01:17:34,880 --> 01:17:37,680 Speaker 2: Okay, So what's the timeline on this whens that get 1630 01:17:38,080 --> 01:17:38,960 Speaker 2: up and passed. 1631 01:17:39,600 --> 01:17:41,599 Speaker 14: Well, they're going to legislate by the end of this year, 1632 01:17:41,880 --> 01:17:45,240 Speaker 14: and there's bipartisan support to do it. It looks like 1633 01:17:45,360 --> 01:17:48,600 Speaker 14: it probably will come in at the age of sixteen. 1634 01:17:48,960 --> 01:17:54,200 Speaker 14: And quite frankly, there are various other questions that need 1635 01:17:54,280 --> 01:17:57,320 Speaker 14: to be answered. As you said, what's the age verification, 1636 01:17:57,479 --> 01:18:00,120 Speaker 14: how are they going to do it, facial technology or what. 1637 01:18:00,439 --> 01:18:04,920 Speaker 14: But either way, this is going to happen, and it's 1638 01:18:04,960 --> 01:18:08,080 Speaker 14: going to happen. Legislation to be introduced to Prime Minister, 1639 01:18:08,200 --> 01:18:10,880 Speaker 14: promised by the end of the year, and with both 1640 01:18:10,960 --> 01:18:13,960 Speaker 14: sides of the major parties agreeing anyway, it's hard to 1641 01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:15,879 Speaker 14: see why it won't be delivered. 1642 01:18:16,400 --> 01:18:18,320 Speaker 2: And do we have the detail on the legislation. In 1643 01:18:18,400 --> 01:18:20,960 Speaker 2: other words, if they settle on sixteen, if you're fifteen 1644 01:18:21,080 --> 01:18:23,720 Speaker 2: years old, you will not be legally allowed to be 1645 01:18:23,840 --> 01:18:26,839 Speaker 2: on TikTok or Facebook or Snapchat or anywhere. 1646 01:18:27,920 --> 01:18:30,840 Speaker 14: We haven't seen the legislation yet. They're still doing They've 1647 01:18:30,880 --> 01:18:35,320 Speaker 14: actually just kicked off the process for an age verification trial, 1648 01:18:35,680 --> 01:18:38,200 Speaker 14: so over the next month or so, it is all 1649 01:18:38,360 --> 01:18:41,880 Speaker 14: being done very quickly. There are legal questions as well. 1650 01:18:41,960 --> 01:18:44,320 Speaker 14: There are a number of states in the US that 1651 01:18:44,479 --> 01:18:47,719 Speaker 14: have tried it. They're in the courts, big Tech taking 1652 01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:51,040 Speaker 14: them on. But with an election coming up, Mike, I 1653 01:18:51,160 --> 01:18:54,040 Speaker 14: don't think this is a problem politically. I think the 1654 01:18:54,160 --> 01:18:56,639 Speaker 14: government's more than happy to have a fight with big tech. 1655 01:18:57,120 --> 01:18:59,400 Speaker 2: And having said that, does that in any way, shape 1656 01:18:59,479 --> 01:19:02,559 Speaker 2: or form, or will it dubtail in with the ongoing 1657 01:19:02,600 --> 01:19:05,799 Speaker 2: conversations you're having with big tech over them taking content 1658 01:19:05,960 --> 01:19:07,800 Speaker 2: and then putting it online and they might like to 1659 01:19:07,840 --> 01:19:09,240 Speaker 2: pay a little bit of money for that, or are 1660 01:19:09,280 --> 01:19:12,080 Speaker 2: these completely separate subjects, in other words, the relationship between 1661 01:19:12,080 --> 01:19:12,920 Speaker 2: big tech and the government. 1662 01:19:13,720 --> 01:19:15,760 Speaker 14: They're meant to be They're meant to be separate. But 1663 01:19:15,800 --> 01:19:19,599 Speaker 14: I'm sure they will dovetail, and who knows, maybe there's 1664 01:19:19,680 --> 01:19:23,479 Speaker 14: something where they can compromise on one and get something 1665 01:19:23,600 --> 01:19:25,679 Speaker 14: get them to bend on the other. But I haven't 1666 01:19:25,720 --> 01:19:28,880 Speaker 14: heard any suggestion that Big Tech's willing to go back 1667 01:19:28,960 --> 01:19:31,160 Speaker 14: and start paying for the news that they use. And 1668 01:19:31,840 --> 01:19:34,320 Speaker 14: to be honest, I think there is a view that 1669 01:19:34,520 --> 01:19:38,720 Speaker 14: they take. They take the Mickey Mike. They're basically it's 1670 01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:43,440 Speaker 14: not like the wild West that they're not treated like publishers. 1671 01:19:44,120 --> 01:19:46,480 Speaker 14: They don't have the same rules in terms of defamation. 1672 01:19:47,200 --> 01:19:49,920 Speaker 14: They make money on advertising that they don't even see. 1673 01:19:50,000 --> 01:19:53,120 Speaker 14: They just throw it up, throw it up online. So 1674 01:19:53,240 --> 01:19:56,080 Speaker 14: I think there's a view in the community as well 1675 01:19:56,240 --> 01:19:59,120 Speaker 14: that enough's enough and it's time to start raining them in. 1676 01:19:59,560 --> 01:20:01,880 Speaker 2: All right, there we got agecre reform. How long has 1677 01:20:01,880 --> 01:20:03,639 Speaker 2: this been in the offing? 1678 01:20:04,760 --> 01:20:07,360 Speaker 14: Oh for years? In fact, we had a Royal Commission 1679 01:20:08,400 --> 01:20:11,320 Speaker 14: over two years ago now which said they needed to 1680 01:20:11,320 --> 01:20:15,160 Speaker 14: be urgent action, urgent action. Two and a bit years later, 1681 01:20:15,560 --> 01:20:19,200 Speaker 14: we've seen no deal done and I'm not convinced there 1682 01:20:19,240 --> 01:20:22,880 Speaker 14: will be a compromise. Basically, our age care sector with 1683 01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:28,479 Speaker 14: a growing aging population, the demographic is shifting. There needs 1684 01:20:28,520 --> 01:20:32,400 Speaker 14: to be reform. But as I said, we've got an 1685 01:20:32,439 --> 01:20:36,240 Speaker 14: election coming up. The government's got a five hundred page bill. 1686 01:20:36,960 --> 01:20:39,400 Speaker 14: I'm just not sure the coalition the opposition will give 1687 01:20:39,439 --> 01:20:43,080 Speaker 14: them a win here. As much as we desperately need it, and. 1688 01:20:43,120 --> 01:20:45,840 Speaker 2: Then we got the details and interesting eclectic old. I mean, 1689 01:20:45,840 --> 01:20:47,679 Speaker 2: at least you get them. The King and the Queen, 1690 01:20:47,760 --> 01:20:49,360 Speaker 2: we don't get them. They dropped down part of the 1691 01:20:49,439 --> 01:20:52,400 Speaker 2: league off before they head off to Samoa. I'm the 1692 01:20:52,560 --> 01:20:55,160 Speaker 2: going the usual things, but the barbecue is interesting, I thought. 1693 01:20:56,240 --> 01:21:00,479 Speaker 14: Yeah, that's right, the barbecue meeting community leaders, those that 1694 01:21:00,680 --> 01:21:06,800 Speaker 14: volunteer and pioneers in cancer research and so on. So yeah, 1695 01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:08,920 Speaker 14: it looks like they're going to pack it in in 1696 01:21:09,040 --> 01:21:12,600 Speaker 14: two days. Disappointing they're not visiting your beautiful part of 1697 01:21:12,640 --> 01:21:16,320 Speaker 14: the world. It's one of my favorite places to come 1698 01:21:16,400 --> 01:21:18,639 Speaker 14: and holiday where I'll be in December again this year. 1699 01:21:18,720 --> 01:21:21,840 Speaker 14: But anyway, I think the King's missing a trick there. 1700 01:21:22,160 --> 01:21:26,000 Speaker 14: But here for two days Canberra and Sydney's is on 1701 01:21:26,080 --> 01:21:27,040 Speaker 14: their schedule exactly. 1702 01:21:27,120 --> 01:21:29,240 Speaker 2: Hey, listen, you're normally on in the afternoon on Sky 1703 01:21:29,320 --> 01:21:31,200 Speaker 2: when this debate's on. Is it going to do? You're 1704 01:21:31,240 --> 01:21:33,400 Speaker 2: carrying it live today? What would your assessment be of 1705 01:21:33,520 --> 01:21:36,240 Speaker 2: the interest by the average Australian in the one debate 1706 01:21:36,320 --> 01:21:37,400 Speaker 2: and to the race in America? 1707 01:21:38,240 --> 01:21:42,719 Speaker 14: It's huge and definitely in Parliament. Parliament sitting this week, 1708 01:21:42,840 --> 01:21:45,320 Speaker 14: we're running it in full. We've got analysis off the 1709 01:21:45,360 --> 01:21:47,599 Speaker 14: back of it as well, and I just think it's 1710 01:21:47,720 --> 01:21:50,519 Speaker 14: got everyone I'm talking to in the Australian Parliament is 1711 01:21:50,680 --> 01:21:55,640 Speaker 14: super engaged because it affects us all whoever wins in 1712 01:21:55,760 --> 01:21:58,840 Speaker 14: that first week of November in the presidential race, that 1713 01:21:59,000 --> 01:22:02,559 Speaker 14: this is going to have huge applications for our region 1714 01:22:02,640 --> 01:22:02,960 Speaker 14: as well. 1715 01:22:03,080 --> 01:22:03,280 Speaker 23: Mate. 1716 01:22:03,520 --> 01:22:05,439 Speaker 2: Exactly good to see, mate, we'll catch up Friday. Apreciate 1717 01:22:05,479 --> 01:22:07,439 Speaker 2: it very much. Kieran Gilbert, who is the chief news 1718 01:22:07,479 --> 01:22:10,800 Speaker 2: anchor at Sky News, in the details of King and 1719 01:22:11,439 --> 01:22:15,240 Speaker 2: the Queen six days in Australia sixteenth to Australia for 1720 01:22:15,360 --> 01:22:18,160 Speaker 2: Charles trip. That is three days of events in Sydney 1721 01:22:18,240 --> 01:22:21,680 Speaker 2: and Canberra. They'll arrive Friday, October eighteenth, fly at the 1722 01:22:21,680 --> 01:22:23,640 Speaker 2: following Wednesday where they head to the Choggham meeting in 1723 01:22:23,760 --> 01:22:27,240 Speaker 2: Samoa first by reigning Monarch. Who's visit by reigning Monarch 1724 01:22:27,320 --> 01:22:30,240 Speaker 2: since Elizabeth was there in Brisbane and Melbourne back in 1725 01:22:30,320 --> 01:22:35,280 Speaker 2: twenty eleven. Barbecue with every day Australians. I mean, what 1726 01:22:35,479 --> 01:22:39,000 Speaker 2: on earth does that mean? And really do you think 1727 01:22:39,080 --> 01:22:41,360 Speaker 2: you would round up your average every day Australian and 1728 01:22:41,400 --> 01:22:42,960 Speaker 2: put them in front of a barbecue and the King 1729 01:22:43,080 --> 01:22:45,839 Speaker 2: I think not the layer wreath at the Australian War Memorial, 1730 01:22:45,960 --> 01:22:49,880 Speaker 2: visit the Australian Botanic Gardens. They'll visit the CSIRO where 1731 01:22:49,960 --> 01:22:52,000 Speaker 2: the scientists are working on dealing with the impact of 1732 01:22:52,040 --> 01:22:54,840 Speaker 2: bushfires in Australia. They'll conduct a fleet review of the 1733 01:22:54,920 --> 01:22:58,439 Speaker 2: Royal Australian Navy. So that's the itinerary that's been released 1734 01:22:58,479 --> 01:22:59,799 Speaker 2: This morning A forty. 1735 01:22:59,640 --> 01:23:05,480 Speaker 1: Five The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio 1736 01:23:05,720 --> 01:23:06,800 Speaker 1: powered by News Talks. 1737 01:23:06,800 --> 01:23:09,200 Speaker 2: A'd be by from nine just before we leave Australia. 1738 01:23:09,200 --> 01:23:11,240 Speaker 2: There's a poll out. The other angsty thing that got 1739 01:23:11,280 --> 01:23:13,840 Speaker 2: going apart from social media at the moment is advertising 1740 01:23:13,960 --> 01:23:17,040 Speaker 2: gambling or gambling advertising fifty one percent or in favor 1741 01:23:17,160 --> 01:23:20,120 Speaker 2: of a total band. So the decision they can't quite 1742 01:23:20,160 --> 01:23:23,640 Speaker 2: get across yet. Do they ban it completely or the 1743 01:23:23,720 --> 01:23:27,360 Speaker 2: government favors or seems to favor a partial ban. Fifty 1744 01:23:27,400 --> 01:23:30,960 Speaker 2: one percent of the poll say there's total ban. Cabinets 1745 01:23:31,000 --> 01:23:33,960 Speaker 2: currently delayed that decision because it's a lot of sporting codes, 1746 01:23:34,040 --> 01:23:37,080 Speaker 2: very upset media companies, very upset gaming sites, very upset. 1747 01:23:37,560 --> 01:23:40,080 Speaker 2: So the partial ban is what they think they want. 1748 01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:43,200 Speaker 2: Thirty two percent in favor of limiting the ads to 1749 01:23:43,439 --> 01:23:47,240 Speaker 2: to every hour. Fifty percent of Labor voters want a 1750 01:23:47,280 --> 01:23:50,120 Speaker 2: total ban, forty six percent of Coalition want a total ban. 1751 01:23:50,240 --> 01:23:54,360 Speaker 2: Marginal electorates fifty four percent of voters favor the tougher option. 1752 01:23:55,160 --> 01:23:56,800 Speaker 2: So that's something to think about, Mike. I'm going to 1753 01:23:56,880 --> 01:23:59,680 Speaker 2: Wellington for WOW and the AB's on the weekend. That's 1754 01:23:59,680 --> 01:24:01,120 Speaker 2: for a v Yes. See, we get a lot of that. 1755 01:24:01,240 --> 01:24:03,040 Speaker 2: I mean lots. It doesn't matter where you go if 1756 01:24:03,080 --> 01:24:04,680 Speaker 2: you go for an event, it doesn't matter where it is. 1757 01:24:04,760 --> 01:24:06,840 Speaker 2: You're going for the event, not the place, aren't you. Mike. 1758 01:24:06,920 --> 01:24:10,200 Speaker 2: Our second son, fifteen, managed to keep them off all 1759 01:24:10,280 --> 01:24:12,879 Speaker 2: social media after seeing the impact it had on our eldest, 1760 01:24:12,880 --> 01:24:14,680 Speaker 2: who also was warned against it, and he managed to 1761 01:24:14,720 --> 01:24:17,599 Speaker 2: avoid all the sexting, drama, bullying, etc. That's plagued others 1762 01:24:17,680 --> 01:24:21,400 Speaker 2: this year at his group in school. Luckily, his prem 1763 01:24:21,560 --> 01:24:25,519 Speaker 2: sports team coach also encourages families to do this for 1764 01:24:25,640 --> 01:24:28,320 Speaker 2: the player's health and performance. You'd be one of the 1765 01:24:28,360 --> 01:24:31,120 Speaker 2: few if you've been successfully managing to keep a teenager 1766 01:24:31,200 --> 01:24:32,840 Speaker 2: off social media, I'm afraid to tell you, which is 1767 01:24:32,880 --> 01:24:38,080 Speaker 2: ironic because Snapchat via their publicity department, have just released 1768 01:24:38,120 --> 01:24:41,840 Speaker 2: the information that there are over one point five million 1769 01:24:41,920 --> 01:24:46,200 Speaker 2: of us every month active on Snapchat, so ninety five 1770 01:24:46,240 --> 01:24:48,360 Speaker 2: percent of key Wes thirteen to twenty four. So at 1771 01:24:48,360 --> 01:24:50,400 Speaker 2: the bottom end of that the very people Albanez is 1772 01:24:50,400 --> 01:24:53,160 Speaker 2: allegedly going to stop from getting onto Snapchat at all, 1773 01:24:53,200 --> 01:24:56,720 Speaker 2: but ninety five percent of people in that age group 1774 01:24:56,800 --> 01:24:59,240 Speaker 2: are active on Snapchat, seventy five percent of people thirteen 1775 01:24:59,280 --> 01:25:02,559 Speaker 2: to thirty four.

It's on the Fan, 1833 01:27:34,720 --> 01:27:37,680 Speaker 2: that's what the station's called The Fan Ken's. He was 1834 01:27:37,720 --> 01:27:39,800 Speaker 2: a frequent hater of a guy called Baker Mayfield, who 1835 01:27:39,840 --> 01:27:43,080 Speaker 2: was a quarterback, and they traded Baker Mayfield. They got 1836 01:27:43,120 --> 01:27:45,120 Speaker 2: rid of them. They sent him to the Buccaneers. But 1837 01:27:45,280 --> 01:27:47,840 Speaker 2: in round one, opening of the season, Baker had a 1838 01:27:47,960 --> 01:27:50,840 Speaker 2: blinder for the Buccaneers. But Deshaun Watson, who they paid 1839 01:27:50,840 --> 01:27:52,800 Speaker 2: about eight squillion dollars for and then he sort of 1840 01:27:52,840 --> 01:27:54,880 Speaker 2: couldn't get to the field last season. Now he started 1841 01:27:54,920 --> 01:27:56,519 Speaker 2: on the field for the first time in ages, he 1842 01:27:56,680 --> 01:27:59,040 Speaker 2: turns out to be useless. So this is the very 1843 01:27:59,080 --> 01:28:00,559 Speaker 2: first call they got to be in the season. 1844 01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:02,880 Speaker 18: Two numbers, you'll figure him out. 1845 01:28:03,200 --> 01:28:08,360 Speaker 15: Uh, forty two point nine, one forty four. 1846 01:28:08,600 --> 01:28:09,200 Speaker 23: What is all this? 1847 01:28:11,400 --> 01:28:15,560 Speaker 13: Watson's quarterback rating, Mayfield's quarterback. 1848 01:28:15,280 --> 01:28:18,479 Speaker 20: R christ I can't do this for one more second. 1849 01:28:21,240 --> 01:28:23,200 Speaker 20: The first call of the box, we're gonna do this, 1850 01:28:23,640 --> 01:28:25,160 Speaker 20: the very first call of the box. 1851 01:28:25,200 --> 01:28:29,759 Speaker 2: We're gonna do this.
