Speaker 3: exactly right, big show today after three o'clock. You want

41
00:02:02,533 --> 00:02:05,333
Speaker 3: to talk about shotgun etiquette and not the firearm?

42
00:02:05,453 --> 00:02:09,493
Speaker 2: I absolutely do because look, I was involved in an

43
00:02:09,493 --> 00:02:12,013
Speaker 2: incident where I was driving back. It was quite a

44
00:02:12,013 --> 00:02:15,293
Speaker 2: long drive, about forty five minutes. It was through Auckland

45
00:02:15,293 --> 00:02:17,373
Speaker 2: in the weekend, so that can be forty five minutes

46
00:02:17,413 --> 00:02:21,933
Speaker 2: from out east pakeranger into town and there was an

47
00:02:21,933 --> 00:02:25,012
Speaker 2: accident on the road. Anyway, the person in my passenger

48
00:02:25,053 --> 00:02:27,693
Speaker 2: seat and my shotgun seat said, oh, I'm just going

49
00:02:27,733 --> 00:02:30,252
Speaker 2: to take a sleep here and roll his seat back

50
00:02:30,293 --> 00:02:32,773
Speaker 2: and went to sleep. How do you they And I

51
00:02:32,933 --> 00:02:34,853
Speaker 2: just thought, that's you can't do that. You can't do

52
00:02:34,893 --> 00:02:36,933
Speaker 2: that your job. And look, I could be wrong here,

53
00:02:36,972 --> 00:02:40,373
Speaker 2: but I think this is particularly on the roads when

54
00:02:40,373 --> 00:02:42,893
Speaker 2: you're going between cities, right, This is particularly the case

55
00:02:43,252 --> 00:02:46,893
Speaker 2: that the shotgun obligations, the passenger seat obligations are to

56
00:02:46,933 --> 00:02:51,053
Speaker 2: stay awake, to keep the driver company, and also to

57
00:02:51,133 --> 00:02:54,613
Speaker 2: provide refreshments for the driver, and also to choose the tunes.

58
00:02:54,693 --> 00:02:56,213
Speaker 3: Ye, well, choose the tunes as well.

59
00:02:56,293 --> 00:03:00,133
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot of responsibilities there. But it's also

60
00:03:00,173 --> 00:03:03,493
Speaker 2: a serious safety thing when you're going between towns, isn't it.

61
00:03:03,532 --> 00:03:05,933
Speaker 2: And luck, look, maybe I'm being a bit churlish here

62
00:03:05,972 --> 00:03:08,532
Speaker 2: because this was just across Auckland, but across Auckland in

63
00:03:08,613 --> 00:03:14,373
Speaker 2: the weekend is basically into city but between towns. You know,

64
00:03:14,413 --> 00:03:16,773
Speaker 2: if you're in the shotgun seat, you've got some responsibilities.

65
00:03:16,813 --> 00:03:19,013
Speaker 2: You're like a co pilot. Yeah, you're like a co

66
00:03:19,133 --> 00:03:22,013
Speaker 2: pilot and a seven four seven. You have to be

67
00:03:22,093 --> 00:03:25,532
Speaker 2: ready to take over the controls if the driver goes down.

68
00:03:25,773 --> 00:03:27,692
Speaker 3: Yeah, you don't get a free pass though, you get

69
00:03:27,693 --> 00:03:30,333
Speaker 3: the good seat. That doesn't mean that you've got you're

70
00:03:30,373 --> 00:03:32,573
Speaker 3: on easy street now. No, no, no, no, You've got

71
00:03:32,653 --> 00:03:35,093
Speaker 3: to stay awake. You're going to provide some good chats.

72
00:03:35,253 --> 00:03:40,293
Speaker 2: Yeah, good chat. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, And that's self preservatorial.

73
00:03:40,333 --> 00:03:43,853
Speaker 2: I'm not sure if that's a word in the interests

74
00:03:43,893 --> 00:03:48,173
Speaker 2: of self preservation, because you don't want your driver falling asleep.

75
00:03:48,413 --> 00:03:50,093
Speaker 2: You're at the bed in the passenger seat.

76
00:03:50,173 --> 00:03:53,053
Speaker 3: Yeah, well you're asleep exactly. That's going to be a

77
00:03:53,093 --> 00:03:55,933
Speaker 3: good chat after three o'clock. After two o'clock, we want

78
00:03:55,933 --> 00:03:58,933
Speaker 3: to talk about weddings. It's looking like a tof summer

79
00:03:59,333 --> 00:04:03,172
Speaker 3: for businesses that deal with weddings. A lot of people

80
00:04:03,253 --> 00:04:04,133
Speaker 3: cutting back costs.

81
00:04:04,293 --> 00:04:06,093
Speaker 2: Yeah, we tried to talk about this yesterday, about the

82
00:04:06,253 --> 00:04:09,573
Speaker 2: chat we're having was just too good and we didn't

83
00:04:09,573 --> 00:04:11,893
Speaker 2: have time for this one. So we think it's a

84
00:04:11,893 --> 00:04:14,653
Speaker 2: good one. So we want to chat about today. We

85
00:04:14,693 --> 00:04:16,813
Speaker 2: want to talk about weddings. How do you do a

86
00:04:16,853 --> 00:04:19,733
Speaker 2: less expensive one? And do you need to spend a

87
00:04:19,733 --> 00:04:22,332
Speaker 2: lot of money on a wedding to do it justice?

88
00:04:22,693 --> 00:04:25,093
Speaker 2: Is that the important part of it that you've had

89
00:04:25,733 --> 00:04:30,733
Speaker 2: a flashy, spectacular wedding to mark this very important occasion

90
00:04:30,733 --> 00:04:32,533
Speaker 2: and make it the best day of your life. Is

91
00:04:32,533 --> 00:04:35,973
Speaker 2: that important? Or it was at the heart and the

92
00:04:36,013 --> 00:04:38,293
Speaker 2: meaning of the situation. And if it's just a few

93
00:04:38,653 --> 00:04:42,773
Speaker 2: trestle tables and some sausage rolls in the backyard, then

94
00:04:42,813 --> 00:04:45,333
Speaker 2: that's just as good if the lover is there.

95
00:04:45,653 --> 00:04:48,613
Speaker 3: I'm going to throw out a big generalization here. I

96
00:04:48,653 --> 00:04:51,893
Speaker 3: reckon the cost matters more to the bride than it

97
00:04:51,933 --> 00:04:55,413
Speaker 3: does to the groom. You sexist pig, Well prove me wrong.

98
00:04:55,453 --> 00:04:59,093
Speaker 3: Oh had one hundred. That is after two o'clock. Now,

99
00:04:59,133 --> 00:05:00,933
Speaker 3: just before we get into a one o'clock topic, we

100
00:05:00,973 --> 00:05:03,933
Speaker 3: do want to talk about briefly a big story that

101
00:05:04,013 --> 00:05:06,773
Speaker 3: just broke at one o'clock. The end of greyhound racing

102
00:05:06,893 --> 00:05:09,053
Speaker 3: is near in this country, with the government today moving

103
00:05:09,133 --> 00:05:12,293
Speaker 3: to prevent dogs being killed on the tracks. A racing minister,

104
00:05:12,293 --> 00:05:15,253
Speaker 3: Winston Peters says the decision has not been taken lightly

105
00:05:15,573 --> 00:05:18,733
Speaker 3: and is driven by protecting the animal's welfare. Peters says

106
00:05:18,773 --> 00:05:21,733
Speaker 3: the industry has been on notice over welfare concerns for

107
00:05:21,813 --> 00:05:25,293
Speaker 3: several years, but the percentage of dogs injured remains high.

108
00:05:25,493 --> 00:05:28,013
Speaker 3: A twenty month wind down period will serve as a

109
00:05:28,053 --> 00:05:31,813
Speaker 3: transition period for the industry and allow rather the dogs

110
00:05:31,853 --> 00:05:34,053
Speaker 3: to be rehome. That's a lot of dogs needing to

111
00:05:34,093 --> 00:05:37,653
Speaker 3: be rehomed, So legislation to end to the greyhound racing

112
00:05:37,693 --> 00:05:39,613
Speaker 3: will be introduced next year.

113
00:05:39,973 --> 00:05:43,133
Speaker 2: End of an era. It's big, It's big. The dish

114
00:05:43,173 --> 00:05:46,373
Speaker 2: lick is down. I'm just I just read anonymously. I've

115
00:05:46,413 --> 00:05:50,933
Speaker 2: got a punting a punting WhatsApp group with friends, and

116
00:05:51,253 --> 00:05:53,813
Speaker 2: this is the response from some of my friends. Okay,

117
00:05:54,373 --> 00:05:57,533
Speaker 2: can I claim bereavement leave on this news? Yep. The

118
00:05:57,573 --> 00:06:00,253
Speaker 2: next one is dish lick is down. Another one of

119
00:06:00,253 --> 00:06:02,733
Speaker 2: my friends says the saddest day in New Zealand history.

120
00:06:03,253 --> 00:06:06,653
Speaker 2: Another one says end times, and the other ones, and

121
00:06:06,693 --> 00:06:08,853
Speaker 2: then the next one says, what's I'm not going to

122
00:06:08,893 --> 00:06:10,253
Speaker 2: read out going to do with his weekends?

123
00:06:10,333 --> 00:06:12,533
Speaker 3: Yeah? I mean, look, there'll be a lot of people grieving.

124
00:06:12,573 --> 00:06:16,133
Speaker 3: There's a lot of punters who enjoy the greyhound racing

125
00:06:16,213 --> 00:06:18,733
Speaker 3: as they do the horse racing. And I think Winston

126
00:06:18,733 --> 00:06:20,773
Speaker 3: Peters as the Minister of Racing, is going to get

127
00:06:20,773 --> 00:06:21,733
Speaker 3: a lot of pushback.

128
00:06:21,853 --> 00:06:25,293
Speaker 2: Well, it's the ponies next. Well, not if Winston has

129
00:06:25,333 --> 00:06:29,093
Speaker 2: his way, because when he loves the ponies. But you know,

130
00:06:29,933 --> 00:06:32,613
Speaker 2: is this just the start of all those kind of

131
00:06:32,693 --> 00:06:35,693
Speaker 2: things because you know there's there's safety concerns around around

132
00:06:35,733 --> 00:06:36,613
Speaker 2: the ponies, isn't there.

133
00:06:36,813 --> 00:06:39,253
Speaker 3: It's interesting coming from Winston because he was always the

134
00:06:39,373 --> 00:06:43,693
Speaker 3: champion of those within they greyhound industry that's long been

135
00:06:43,733 --> 00:06:46,533
Speaker 3: floated about banning greyhounds. The horse is not so much,

136
00:06:46,573 --> 00:06:48,893
Speaker 3: but a lot of pressure has been put on that

137
00:06:49,013 --> 00:06:51,293
Speaker 3: on the greyhound industry. But when he's always said no,

138
00:06:51,373 --> 00:06:55,013
Speaker 3: not on my watch, and now clearly they've changed their minds.

139
00:06:55,293 --> 00:06:58,373
Speaker 2: Is he just throwing the dish lick as the greyhounds

140
00:06:59,333 --> 00:07:03,933
Speaker 2: like meat to the rabid mob of animal safety people?

141
00:07:04,253 --> 00:07:07,693
Speaker 2: So he just sacrifices the greyhounds to take the heat

142
00:07:07,773 --> 00:07:09,013
Speaker 2: off the off the ponies.

143
00:07:09,133 --> 00:07:09,413
Speaker 3: Yeah.

144
00:07:09,533 --> 00:07:09,933
Speaker 2: Maybe.

145
00:07:09,933 --> 00:07:11,813
Speaker 3: Well we're gonna have a chat to Jason Wolves, our

146
00:07:11,813 --> 00:07:15,093
Speaker 3: political editor, in about twenty five minutes time, so we'll

147
00:07:15,093 --> 00:07:17,253
Speaker 3: ask him those questions. Here's on the stand up as

148
00:07:17,293 --> 00:07:19,413
Speaker 3: we speak, but onto the topic we want to have

149
00:07:19,413 --> 00:07:22,013
Speaker 3: a chat about over the next hour or so. Dash cams.

150
00:07:22,093 --> 00:07:24,293
Speaker 3: This is on the back of footage of a car

151
00:07:24,493 --> 00:07:27,213
Speaker 3: using the roadside to undertake a camper van on a

152
00:07:27,253 --> 00:07:31,173
Speaker 3: South Island road has divided opinion online, so it was

153
00:07:31,213 --> 00:07:35,093
Speaker 3: posted to the Facebook page christ Hitch. Dash Cams and

154
00:07:35,173 --> 00:07:38,613
Speaker 3: reactions to the maneuver were mixed, so if you haven't

155
00:07:38,613 --> 00:07:40,653
Speaker 3: seen the video, it is up on the hero page.

156
00:07:40,733 --> 00:07:42,773
Speaker 3: But effectively it looks to be the West Coast, a

157
00:07:42,893 --> 00:07:46,093
Speaker 3: little bit of a winding road. And this is where

158
00:07:46,093 --> 00:07:48,533
Speaker 3: the disagreement comes from is I thought it was a

159
00:07:48,773 --> 00:07:51,293
Speaker 3: slow lane to the left, but you think it might

160
00:07:51,293 --> 00:07:54,213
Speaker 3: have been a shoulder. But effectively the dash camp looked

161
00:07:54,253 --> 00:07:56,093
Speaker 3: like it was a truck. There was a camper van

162
00:07:56,373 --> 00:07:59,413
Speaker 3: in the front going particularly slow. Then this little white

163
00:07:59,533 --> 00:08:03,653
Speaker 3: Toyota Corolla rams it up the left to overtake both

164
00:08:03,693 --> 00:08:03,893
Speaker 3: of them.

165
00:08:03,973 --> 00:08:06,413
Speaker 2: Yeah, undertakes. So there's a shoulder on the side of

166
00:08:06,453 --> 00:08:08,533
Speaker 2: the road that would probably be big enough for the

167
00:08:08,573 --> 00:08:10,693
Speaker 2: camp a van to pull over.

168
00:08:10,773 --> 00:08:11,333
Speaker 5: Yeah, and.

169
00:08:12,973 --> 00:08:15,693
Speaker 2: Let the other two cars through. But I say all

170
00:08:15,733 --> 00:08:17,733
Speaker 2: of them are at fault in this dash cam video.

171
00:08:17,733 --> 00:08:19,813
Speaker 2: I say that the camp of van's going too slow,

172
00:08:20,293 --> 00:08:22,773
Speaker 2: and also the person with the dash cam is right

173
00:08:22,853 --> 00:08:27,133
Speaker 2: up as as so that's tailgating. And then youet the

174
00:08:27,333 --> 00:08:31,373
Speaker 2: dirty Toyo to corolla coming around and the undertaking on

175
00:08:31,413 --> 00:08:33,533
Speaker 2: the shoulder, so all of them are dirty. But the

176
00:08:33,533 --> 00:08:37,413
Speaker 2: writer question is around dash cams. Do you have them,

177
00:08:37,573 --> 00:08:39,252
Speaker 2: how do you get them, how much do they cost?

178
00:08:40,333 --> 00:08:43,093
Speaker 2: And should we all have them? Because there's so many

179
00:08:43,132 --> 00:08:45,933
Speaker 2: altercations out on the road right now. And we were

180
00:08:45,973 --> 00:08:50,813
Speaker 2: just hearing last week about that road rage incident where

181
00:08:51,132 --> 00:08:54,252
Speaker 2: a person was attacked with a wheelbrace and you wouldn't

182
00:08:54,252 --> 00:08:57,532
Speaker 2: mind having that footage. But even just for insurance claims

183
00:08:57,653 --> 00:09:01,413
Speaker 2: or whatever weirdness happens on the road, is it time

184
00:09:01,453 --> 00:09:02,453
Speaker 2: we all got dash camps?

185
00:09:02,813 --> 00:09:04,893
Speaker 3: They seem very handy to have it, and how hard

186
00:09:04,973 --> 00:09:07,213
Speaker 3: is it to get one? Yeah, and truckies in particular,

187
00:09:07,213 --> 00:09:09,573
Speaker 3: if you've got your dash care as I take it,

188
00:09:09,612 --> 00:09:11,853
Speaker 3: that is paid for by the business. But has that

189
00:09:12,012 --> 00:09:13,852
Speaker 3: got you out of trouble in the past? Has that

190
00:09:13,933 --> 00:09:15,573
Speaker 3: helped you? If there has been an incident on the

191
00:09:15,653 --> 00:09:17,693
Speaker 3: road and you've caught that on the dash cam, do

192
00:09:17,813 --> 00:09:20,492
Speaker 3: you post that online? Willy nilly? I mean, is there

193
00:09:20,492 --> 00:09:22,813
Speaker 3: any rules around that? I suppose they're very entertaining some

194
00:09:22,852 --> 00:09:23,933
Speaker 3: of those dash cam Oh.

195
00:09:23,892 --> 00:09:27,373
Speaker 2: Yeah, their content, yea, the social media content, there's no

196
00:09:27,413 --> 00:09:29,653
Speaker 2: doubt and today in the NZ Herald.

197
00:09:29,773 --> 00:09:32,573
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely so. If you've got a dashcam, we'd love

198
00:09:32,612 --> 00:09:34,413
Speaker 3: to hear from you. What was the setup like and

199
00:09:34,453 --> 00:09:38,132
Speaker 3: it has it saved you from a particular particularly bad

200
00:09:38,132 --> 00:09:40,933
Speaker 3: situation on the road. Oh, eight hundred eighty ten eighty

201
00:09:41,053 --> 00:09:43,252
Speaker 3: is the number to call. Nine two ninety two is

202
00:09:43,293 --> 00:09:45,253
Speaker 3: the text. It is fourteen pass one.

203
00:09:47,333 --> 00:09:50,852
Speaker 1: The big stories, the big issues, the big trends and

204
00:09:51,053 --> 00:09:54,813
Speaker 1: everything in between. Matt Heath and Tyler Adams afternoons you

205
00:09:54,973 --> 00:09:56,612
Speaker 1: for twenty twenty four used talks.

206
00:09:56,612 --> 00:09:59,973
Speaker 3: There'd be news talks there b seventeen past one. We're

207
00:09:59,973 --> 00:10:02,652
Speaker 3: talking about dash cams? Are they a worthwhile investment? It's

208
00:10:02,693 --> 00:10:05,973
Speaker 3: on the back of another story dash cam story in

209
00:10:06,093 --> 00:10:08,292
Speaker 3: the media on the New Zealand Herald, and it's worth

210
00:10:08,453 --> 00:10:10,693
Speaker 3: the watch. It was footage of a car using the

211
00:10:10,852 --> 00:10:14,373
Speaker 3: left hand side undertaking if you will, to pass a

212
00:10:14,413 --> 00:10:17,613
Speaker 3: camper van that was going a bit slow using the shoulder.

213
00:10:17,693 --> 00:10:20,613
Speaker 3: I thought it was a slow lane, but as you

214
00:10:20,653 --> 00:10:23,813
Speaker 3: mentioned before, you blame all three of the participants in

215
00:10:23,852 --> 00:10:25,053
Speaker 3: that video for paul behavior.

216
00:10:25,173 --> 00:10:27,172
Speaker 2: Yeah, and one hundred and eighty ten eighties. You're on

217
00:10:27,293 --> 00:10:28,973
Speaker 2: a dash cam? Does it help? Should we all have

218
00:10:29,053 --> 00:10:30,693
Speaker 2: dash cams. We want to talk about this, as this

219
00:10:30,773 --> 00:10:33,252
Speaker 2: person says, as usual, too many impatient drivers, plus the

220
00:10:33,333 --> 00:10:36,053
Speaker 2: undertaker has removed the opportunity for the van to move

221
00:10:36,093 --> 00:10:38,973
Speaker 2: over safely. That's that's a good point because I say

222
00:10:38,973 --> 00:10:41,253
Speaker 2: that the dash cam driver and this is this isn't

223
00:10:41,252 --> 00:10:44,372
Speaker 2: the wider point we're looking at if you've seen this footage.

224
00:10:44,573 --> 00:10:46,813
Speaker 2: But if you want someone to pull over so you

225
00:10:46,852 --> 00:10:48,893
Speaker 2: can go past, you have to. You can't be you

226
00:10:49,012 --> 00:10:51,773
Speaker 2: can't be tailgating them so close that they can't pull over.

227
00:10:52,333 --> 00:10:54,493
Speaker 2: You can if you're riding them to hurry them up

228
00:10:54,492 --> 00:10:57,492
Speaker 2: because you're annoyed that they're going too slow by being

229
00:10:57,492 --> 00:11:00,013
Speaker 2: so close behind them that they can't pull over. Yeah,

230
00:11:00,132 --> 00:11:01,813
Speaker 2: then that's not helping the situation, isn't.

231
00:11:01,892 --> 00:11:09,053
Speaker 3: Yeah exactly, Kevin, you've got a dashcam, Kevin, that's three yeah, yeah, perfect,

232
00:11:09,053 --> 00:11:10,733
Speaker 3: got you there, mate, Sorry, just lost at the start.

233
00:11:10,773 --> 00:11:12,573
Speaker 3: So you've had them for some years? Did you say?

234
00:11:13,612 --> 00:11:13,813
Speaker 6: Yeah?

235
00:11:13,852 --> 00:11:16,252
Speaker 7: I've got them in all my cars. And I would

236
00:11:16,252 --> 00:11:21,493
Speaker 7: strongly recommend getting them simply because you know, you just

237
00:11:21,533 --> 00:11:24,893
Speaker 7: see all the stuff on these videos and it's just

238
00:11:24,933 --> 00:11:27,173
Speaker 7: good to have that protection, you know, especially the ones

239
00:11:27,773 --> 00:11:31,213
Speaker 7: we'll find. It's got to think called barking mode, and

240
00:11:31,252 --> 00:11:33,852
Speaker 7: if it'll detect any damage to the vehicle while it's

241
00:11:33,892 --> 00:11:37,813
Speaker 7: parked and stuff. So that's really awesome. Yeah, yeah, And

242
00:11:37,892 --> 00:11:42,573
Speaker 7: I guess for me, I've got an old classic American

243
00:11:42,653 --> 00:11:44,893
Speaker 7: car and I've got to I'll set up Wi Fi

244
00:11:44,973 --> 00:11:47,252
Speaker 7: in the car so I can actually log into those

245
00:11:47,293 --> 00:11:49,372
Speaker 7: cameras and check them at any time from anywhere in

246
00:11:49,413 --> 00:11:50,093
Speaker 7: the world.

247
00:11:51,653 --> 00:11:53,492
Speaker 2: How much was your How much was it does it

248
00:11:53,492 --> 00:11:55,693
Speaker 2: cost to set each set up each one of the

249
00:11:55,813 --> 00:11:57,453
Speaker 2: each one of these desk cams.

250
00:11:58,933 --> 00:12:01,933
Speaker 7: You can go cheap, you know, start from my probably

251
00:12:01,973 --> 00:12:06,253
Speaker 7: nine to nine marks for a relatively okay one, go

252
00:12:06,333 --> 00:12:08,853
Speaker 7: all up to about a grand, you know, with battery

253
00:12:08,892 --> 00:12:12,213
Speaker 7: back up and stuff. But now they've got I've got

254
00:12:12,573 --> 00:12:16,612
Speaker 7: mine hard white and to the car so that they

255
00:12:16,693 --> 00:12:19,173
Speaker 7: just run all the time. They don't use that much

256
00:12:19,933 --> 00:12:23,573
Speaker 7: that you're in a parking mode. And if you are

257
00:12:23,612 --> 00:12:26,093
Speaker 7: going to get one, just look for the widest angle possible,

258
00:12:26,132 --> 00:12:28,973
Speaker 7: which is, you know, on the front of the vehicle.

259
00:12:30,333 --> 00:12:33,372
Speaker 3: I just looked for Sorry, no, no, sorry to jump

260
00:12:33,372 --> 00:12:35,493
Speaker 3: in there. Have you ever had to use the footage

261
00:12:35,612 --> 00:12:40,532
Speaker 3: with the insurance company or ever uploaded some pretty crazy footage?

262
00:12:40,653 --> 00:12:45,493
Speaker 7: I have one by change lanes to the side of

263
00:12:45,533 --> 00:12:49,093
Speaker 7: my car, and then I sent the footage of the

264
00:12:49,132 --> 00:12:53,893
Speaker 7: insurance company. And then two weeks later someone changed lanes

265
00:12:53,933 --> 00:12:59,813
Speaker 7: into the other side of my car, I mean, and

266
00:12:59,852 --> 00:13:02,293
Speaker 7: this guy took off on me as well the second guy.

267
00:13:02,333 --> 00:13:05,732
Speaker 7: And I had it all on on camera and it

268
00:13:05,773 --> 00:13:06,252
Speaker 7: was awesome.

269
00:13:07,693 --> 00:13:10,173
Speaker 2: But your desk cam, so that was caught on your

270
00:13:10,252 --> 00:13:12,973
Speaker 2: dash cam or just them just leaving the scene?

271
00:13:13,973 --> 00:13:14,813
Speaker 5: Now all of it.

272
00:13:15,653 --> 00:13:20,453
Speaker 7: So basically we pulled over heat butt out, took my

273
00:13:20,612 --> 00:13:23,573
Speaker 7: registration and then it was great because he looked right

274
00:13:23,573 --> 00:13:27,253
Speaker 7: into the dash can faith and everything, and he took

275
00:13:27,293 --> 00:13:29,172
Speaker 7: off and I said, I want to chase them. I'll

276
00:13:29,252 --> 00:13:33,213
Speaker 7: just go to go to the police and and did

277
00:13:33,293 --> 00:13:36,693
Speaker 7: a report and they said rang me. Later they caught

278
00:13:36,732 --> 00:13:39,533
Speaker 7: him and ticketed them for an own safe lane page.

279
00:13:39,892 --> 00:13:42,573
Speaker 7: So an insurance company, well, don't worry about your EXXST.

280
00:13:42,612 --> 00:13:46,852
Speaker 7: We can see you're in the right get well that that's.

281
00:13:46,573 --> 00:13:50,252
Speaker 2: Very very handy. Do they turn on automatically or do

282
00:13:50,333 --> 00:13:52,453
Speaker 2: you have to on your once you have to turn

283
00:13:52,492 --> 00:13:54,973
Speaker 2: them on for each drive or are they connected to the.

284
00:13:55,132 --> 00:13:58,093
Speaker 7: Edition They all turned on automatically, like you need to

285
00:13:58,132 --> 00:14:03,333
Speaker 7: plug them into your lighter outlet. Well, you can hardwire them,

286
00:14:03,372 --> 00:14:06,333
Speaker 7: and they're super easy to do that yourself. Just watched

287
00:14:06,372 --> 00:14:08,453
Speaker 7: some YouTube videos and you can do it. But it

288
00:14:08,533 --> 00:14:11,773
Speaker 7: doesn't really cost much to get them installed. But I'd

289
00:14:11,813 --> 00:14:14,773
Speaker 7: strongly recommend hard wiring because what they do is they

290
00:14:14,852 --> 00:14:18,573
Speaker 7: actually have a little I don't know what to call it,

291
00:14:18,612 --> 00:14:24,333
Speaker 7: but it's basically checks how much battery level is and

292
00:14:24,693 --> 00:14:26,653
Speaker 7: if it goes through load or just shut off, so

293
00:14:26,973 --> 00:14:29,172
Speaker 7: you can always start your there because it's like sitting

294
00:14:29,293 --> 00:14:32,133
Speaker 7: for two weeks and the garage or something and it'll

295
00:14:32,253 --> 00:14:35,933
Speaker 7: just shut off self and not drain the battery right down.

296
00:14:36,333 --> 00:14:38,933
Speaker 7: So there's really cool stuff like that that you didn't get.

297
00:14:39,053 --> 00:14:41,932
Speaker 7: But the one I've got where you can log in

298
00:14:42,213 --> 00:14:44,733
Speaker 7: and you know it connects to Wi Fi and all that,

299
00:14:45,533 --> 00:14:48,773
Speaker 7: I think that was about nine hundred bucks. But they're

300
00:14:48,813 --> 00:14:50,773
Speaker 7: coming down now and you can pick up a really

301
00:14:50,853 --> 00:14:53,093
Speaker 7: good one for a probably a round about three to

302
00:14:53,213 --> 00:14:57,613
Speaker 7: four hundred with dast mode now heart resolution, a high

303
00:14:57,693 --> 00:15:00,253
Speaker 7: frame rate, really good to see my senses in them,

304
00:15:00,613 --> 00:15:04,292
Speaker 7: which means it's really good for or driving at night

305
00:15:05,253 --> 00:15:07,253
Speaker 7: and catching license plates and stuff like that.

306
00:15:07,853 --> 00:15:10,813
Speaker 2: And what about the footage, Kevin, do you have to

307
00:15:11,573 --> 00:15:14,573
Speaker 2: do you have to delete the footage regularly or does

308
00:15:14,613 --> 00:15:18,093
Speaker 2: it only for twenty four hours overwrites it.

309
00:15:18,253 --> 00:15:23,573
Speaker 7: So's you'll almost a st card thirty two or sixty

310
00:15:23,653 --> 00:15:28,173
Speaker 7: four spine and that just records, and it just records

311
00:15:28,333 --> 00:15:31,172
Speaker 7: over itself because get like you know, I don't know

312
00:15:31,253 --> 00:15:33,653
Speaker 7: how long, depicks on how much you're driving, but you'll

313
00:15:33,693 --> 00:15:38,013
Speaker 7: get loads and loads of footage on that st card.

314
00:15:38,693 --> 00:15:41,253
Speaker 7: So you can always review it on on an app

315
00:15:41,413 --> 00:15:46,093
Speaker 7: or you know, quite easily. And then basically when you

316
00:15:47,653 --> 00:15:51,773
Speaker 7: when when you download it, you've got it obviously for good.

317
00:15:52,733 --> 00:15:56,493
Speaker 7: Some I'm actually linked to a cloud based storage so

318
00:15:56,613 --> 00:15:58,653
Speaker 7: you can actually link it. If you've got a Google

319
00:15:58,733 --> 00:16:01,773
Speaker 7: one drive, you can just upload them straight up there.

320
00:16:01,853 --> 00:16:07,213
Speaker 7: But it does it does eat up the dry space online.

321
00:16:07,333 --> 00:16:10,733
Speaker 2: So so when you when you have to upload it,

322
00:16:10,813 --> 00:16:13,053
Speaker 2: do what do you have to just have within Wi

323
00:16:13,173 --> 00:16:15,853
Speaker 2: Fi range to uploaded or do you have to know?

324
00:16:16,333 --> 00:16:18,532
Speaker 7: You can do it a couple of different waves. You

325
00:16:18,573 --> 00:16:23,253
Speaker 7: can actually probably connect to the device file by fight all.

326
00:16:23,293 --> 00:16:25,373
Speaker 7: You can actually just pop up the SD card in

327
00:16:25,413 --> 00:16:27,973
Speaker 7: it and chuck it into a little you know, D

328
00:16:28,133 --> 00:16:31,292
Speaker 7: card reader like a USB so I hope they have,

329
00:16:31,413 --> 00:16:32,933
Speaker 7: and you plug it into your laptop and you can

330
00:16:33,013 --> 00:16:33,493
Speaker 7: download it.

331
00:16:33,653 --> 00:16:35,493
Speaker 2: I guess you know when an incident's been and then

332
00:16:35,493 --> 00:16:39,013
Speaker 2: the footage is worth keeping and not you.

333
00:16:39,093 --> 00:16:42,052
Speaker 7: Know what over I think yeah, and I think some

334
00:16:42,213 --> 00:16:44,292
Speaker 7: of you can set up where if its a collision,

335
00:16:44,333 --> 00:16:49,453
Speaker 7: that will automatically protect that particular moment.

336
00:16:50,173 --> 00:16:52,533
Speaker 3: Interesting, Kevin, thank you very much. I mean he's making

337
00:16:52,573 --> 00:16:54,213
Speaker 3: a good case for having dash cams. And what do

338
00:16:54,293 --> 00:16:56,853
Speaker 3: you say about a thousand dollars for a fairly good setup.

339
00:16:57,013 --> 00:16:58,893
Speaker 2: I'm getting quite excited about getting a dash cam.

340
00:16:59,093 --> 00:16:59,613
Speaker 4: Yeah, I.

341
00:17:01,293 --> 00:17:05,613
Speaker 2: Don't know why. Yeah, I mean, I'm just trying to

342
00:17:05,613 --> 00:17:07,532
Speaker 2: think I've ever been in any incidents that would have

343
00:17:07,813 --> 00:17:09,053
Speaker 2: helped a dash cam.

344
00:17:09,373 --> 00:17:09,573
Speaker 8: Yeah.

345
00:17:09,733 --> 00:17:11,453
Speaker 3: Well, I like what he was saying there. That get

346
00:17:11,533 --> 00:17:13,773
Speaker 3: the one that the fish angle lens or the wide

347
00:17:13,813 --> 00:17:16,213
Speaker 3: angle lens that if you're in a supermarket car park

348
00:17:16,253 --> 00:17:18,573
Speaker 3: and someone parks beside you and you're on the supermarket,

349
00:17:18,773 --> 00:17:21,533
Speaker 3: they open a door and ding your door, you can

350
00:17:21,693 --> 00:17:22,693
Speaker 3: catch them in the act.

351
00:17:22,813 --> 00:17:25,493
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like the parking one's an interesting one. And I

352
00:17:25,613 --> 00:17:28,533
Speaker 2: had a friend that a few weeks ago just came

353
00:17:28,573 --> 00:17:30,493
Speaker 2: out to see their car in their car had just

354
00:17:30,533 --> 00:17:32,493
Speaker 2: someone had smashed into the side it and ground it

355
00:17:32,653 --> 00:17:35,093
Speaker 2: up and then just hit the road. Yeah, you know,

356
00:17:35,173 --> 00:17:38,653
Speaker 2: it would be really interesting to check your your dash

357
00:17:38,693 --> 00:17:39,773
Speaker 2: cam on that one.

358
00:17:39,773 --> 00:17:42,333
Speaker 3: Oh eight one hundred eighty ten eighty if you've got

359
00:17:42,413 --> 00:17:44,893
Speaker 3: a dash cam, if you ever used it successfully trying

360
00:17:44,933 --> 00:17:47,933
Speaker 3: to track someone down who dinged your vehicle indeed on

361
00:17:48,053 --> 00:17:50,253
Speaker 3: the road. Love to hear from you. Nine two nine

362
00:17:50,293 --> 00:17:52,373
Speaker 3: tools the text number as well. It is twenty five

363
00:17:52,413 --> 00:17:52,853
Speaker 3: past one.

364
00:17:55,213 --> 00:17:59,133
Speaker 1: Putting the tough questions to the newspeakers the mic asking breakfast.

365
00:17:59,173 --> 00:18:00,853
Speaker 5: It's a tough old year for a New Zealand.

366
00:18:00,893 --> 00:18:02,333
Speaker 2: The man in charge, Greg four in Er, is with us.

367
00:18:02,373 --> 00:18:02,733
Speaker 9: Now listen.

368
00:18:02,813 --> 00:18:04,613
Speaker 1: The thing that is getting the ghost of your customers,

369
00:18:04,693 --> 00:18:07,013
Speaker 1: it's the pricing, obviously, but I reckon it might actually

370
00:18:07,053 --> 00:18:08,213
Speaker 1: be the on time performance.

371
00:18:08,333 --> 00:18:09,333
Speaker 10: Do you reckon you can fix that.

372
00:18:09,533 --> 00:18:12,133
Speaker 4: I can tell you we're doing everything we can, and

373
00:18:12,213 --> 00:18:14,853
Speaker 4: I'd go a step further and say to you, actually,

374
00:18:15,013 --> 00:18:18,413
Speaker 4: cancelations is a thing that gives me greatest concern at

375
00:18:18,413 --> 00:18:20,533
Speaker 4: the moment. A fair amount of it is just simply

376
00:18:20,733 --> 00:18:23,373
Speaker 4: getting the part. We often have to wait for an

377
00:18:23,453 --> 00:18:26,613
Speaker 4: aircraft to be what they call on ground before the

378
00:18:26,733 --> 00:18:29,373
Speaker 4: supply will release a part to us. Yes, now, we're

379
00:18:29,413 --> 00:18:31,653
Speaker 4: working hard on those things. We've got to do better,

380
00:18:31,773 --> 00:18:34,293
Speaker 4: and I do apologize because it's not where we want

381
00:18:34,333 --> 00:18:35,453
Speaker 4: it to be either.

382
00:18:35,613 --> 00:18:38,933
Speaker 1: Duplusy Ellen on the Mic Hosking Breakfast Back tomorrow at

383
00:18:39,013 --> 00:18:42,253
Speaker 1: six am with Bailey's Real Estate on News Talks, there'd be.

384
00:18:42,533 --> 00:18:44,773
Speaker 3: Twenty eight past one. We're talking about dash cams on

385
00:18:44,853 --> 00:18:46,933
Speaker 3: the back of a story in the New Zealand Herald

386
00:18:46,973 --> 00:18:50,533
Speaker 3: about some bad driving caught on dash cam. But the

387
00:18:50,573 --> 00:18:52,572
Speaker 3: water question we've put to you is, if you've got

388
00:18:52,653 --> 00:18:54,653
Speaker 3: a dash cam, why do you have it? Have you

389
00:18:54,733 --> 00:18:57,933
Speaker 3: managed to catch some footage of some bad behavior, indeed

390
00:18:57,973 --> 00:19:01,813
Speaker 3: someone bringing your vehicle? Brian, you've got two desh cams

391
00:19:01,893 --> 00:19:04,133
Speaker 3: right now as we speak, I.

392
00:19:04,413 --> 00:19:11,333
Speaker 11: Have and best invention or Buddy I come across. I've

393
00:19:11,373 --> 00:19:13,173
Speaker 11: actually got two sitting in front of me on the

394
00:19:13,253 --> 00:19:14,013
Speaker 11: truck at the moment.

395
00:19:14,813 --> 00:19:18,893
Speaker 2: So you've got you've got two two both facing forward.

396
00:19:19,933 --> 00:19:23,733
Speaker 11: I've got one that faces forward and I've got my

397
00:19:23,893 --> 00:19:28,573
Speaker 11: other one is as you attached to my side side

398
00:19:28,613 --> 00:19:30,013
Speaker 11: window and Buddy.

399
00:19:29,973 --> 00:19:31,733
Speaker 12: Looks in the mirror backwards.

400
00:19:33,053 --> 00:19:34,133
Speaker 11: Down the left hand side.

401
00:19:34,773 --> 00:19:34,973
Speaker 13: Yep.

402
00:19:35,653 --> 00:19:37,613
Speaker 2: Have they ever captured anything that's helped you out?

403
00:19:38,853 --> 00:19:38,973
Speaker 14: Ah?

404
00:19:39,493 --> 00:19:43,933
Speaker 11: Yeah, over the years, and that's yeah. But I actually

405
00:19:44,013 --> 00:19:47,213
Speaker 11: carry a whole lot of spare histy cards. Like if

406
00:19:47,253 --> 00:19:49,813
Speaker 11: I see an AX or something, I could take the

407
00:19:51,053 --> 00:19:53,453
Speaker 11: sty card out and I can just hand that to

408
00:19:53,613 --> 00:19:57,253
Speaker 11: the to the invistigating officer and I can put a

409
00:19:57,333 --> 00:19:58,373
Speaker 11: new history card.

410
00:19:58,453 --> 00:19:58,973
Speaker 4: Straight in it.

411
00:20:00,533 --> 00:20:02,613
Speaker 2: Are you are you in the city truck driver?

412
00:20:03,893 --> 00:20:04,053
Speaker 5: Yeah?

413
00:20:04,133 --> 00:20:06,453
Speaker 12: I cover the whole of New Zealand right?

414
00:20:06,653 --> 00:20:08,292
Speaker 3: And did you pay for the dish cans or as

415
00:20:08,453 --> 00:20:10,773
Speaker 3: that fronted up by your your boss.

416
00:20:12,253 --> 00:20:12,493
Speaker 13: One?

417
00:20:12,813 --> 00:20:16,013
Speaker 11: And then I've had for christ that long now, it's

418
00:20:16,053 --> 00:20:18,013
Speaker 11: not funny. I had it when I was in Australia

419
00:20:18,693 --> 00:20:21,733
Speaker 11: and the other one and Matt was given to my

420
00:20:21,973 --> 00:20:24,093
Speaker 11: given to me by my pass and that because he

421
00:20:24,253 --> 00:20:25,013
Speaker 11: had a sphere one.

422
00:20:25,133 --> 00:20:26,453
Speaker 2: So that's in the.

423
00:20:26,493 --> 00:20:27,133
Speaker 12: Truck as well.

424
00:20:27,973 --> 00:20:29,933
Speaker 2: What's the most interesting thing you've captured, Brian?

425
00:20:32,053 --> 00:20:33,733
Speaker 11: This is a family shower.

426
00:20:36,013 --> 00:20:37,573
Speaker 2: Yeah, with the trucks that up high, don't they?

427
00:20:39,493 --> 00:20:39,693
Speaker 15: Yeah?

428
00:20:40,173 --> 00:20:42,733
Speaker 3: But genuinely, Brian, is it? Has it saved you from

429
00:20:42,773 --> 00:20:45,213
Speaker 3: a situation where you know someone might have cut in

430
00:20:45,253 --> 00:20:49,293

00:22:42,573 --> 00:22:42,813
Speaker 3: to two.

471
00:22:46,013 --> 00:22:49,253
Speaker 1: Jus talk sa'd be headlines with blue bubble taxis.

472
00:22:49,293 --> 00:22:52,453
Speaker 17: It's no trouble with a blue bubble. The racing Minister,

473
00:22:52,653 --> 00:22:55,573
Speaker 17: so shutting down greyhound racing is a matter of doing

474
00:22:55,733 --> 00:22:59,213
Speaker 17: the right thing. With a percentage of dogs injured racing

475
00:22:59,413 --> 00:23:02,733
Speaker 17: still high. Racing will shut down over a twenty month

476
00:23:02,893 --> 00:23:08,293
Speaker 17: transition period, and legislation introduced today will outlaw killing racing dog.

477
00:23:09,573 --> 00:23:12,733
Speaker 17: Auckland nurses are walking off the job this afternoon until

478

Speaker 17: level at low. It's up one step from unlikely, meaning

483
00:23:34,213 --> 00:23:38,893

489
00:23:56,453 --> 00:23:59,653
Speaker 3: Thank you very much, Raylene. As you heard in the headlines,

490
00:23:59,693 --> 00:24:02,653
Speaker 3: the racing Minister sees shutting down grayhound racing is a

491
00:24:02,733 --> 00:24:05,533
Speaker 3: matter of doing the right thing. To discuss more, we're

492
00:24:05,573 --> 00:24:09,213
Speaker 3: joined by our political editor, Jason wolves get a Jason.

493
00:24:09,133 --> 00:24:09,973
Speaker 9: Oh, good air boys.

494
00:24:10,613 --> 00:24:13,453
Speaker 2: So any word when this greyhound ban is going to

495
00:24:13,453 --> 00:24:14,093
Speaker 2: come into effect?

496
00:24:14,533 --> 00:24:17,213
Speaker 18: Yes, well twenty months from now, says Winston Peters. He

497
00:24:17,293 --> 00:24:18,973
Speaker 18: needs to give the industry a little bit of time

498
00:24:19,053 --> 00:24:22,333
Speaker 18: to wind things down and to cross a few tees

499
00:24:22,413 --> 00:24:24,933
Speaker 18: and dot a few eyes. But for all intents and purposes,

500
00:24:25,293 --> 00:24:27,853
Speaker 18: this industry is dead. It will be no more from

501
00:24:27,933 --> 00:24:31,493
Speaker 18: twenty months time after these let this legislation comes in

502
00:24:31,693 --> 00:24:34,453
Speaker 18: all this band comes into force, which is essentially now

503
00:24:34,573 --> 00:24:36,013
Speaker 18: but saying it for twenty months time.

504
00:24:36,293 --> 00:24:37,653
Speaker 9: We do have in tandem to.

505
00:24:37,693 --> 00:24:41,413
Speaker 18: This, some legislation going through the House which is essentially

506
00:24:42,013 --> 00:24:46,413
Speaker 18: going to make it illegal to euthanize greyhounds racing dogs,

507
00:24:46,493 --> 00:24:49,173
Speaker 18: because this ban is coming into place, and Peter's said

508
00:24:49,213 --> 00:24:52,373
Speaker 18: that process begins today with the introduction of the Racing

509
00:24:52,653 --> 00:24:55,773
Speaker 18: Industry on Lawful Destruction of Specified.

510
00:24:55,533 --> 00:24:57,933
Speaker 9: Greyhound's Amendment spell a bit of a mouthful. Here's what

511
00:24:57,973 --> 00:24:58,973
Speaker 9: he had to say, which.

512
00:24:58,813 --> 00:25:01,133
Speaker 19: Will we pass under urgency to prevent the unnecessary killing

513
00:25:01,213 --> 00:25:03,573
Speaker 19: of racing dogs. And we've had the commitment of one

514
00:25:03,653 --> 00:25:05,773
Speaker 19: hundred and twenty two votes for that to happen.

515
00:25:05,893 --> 00:25:09,893
Speaker 18: So every MP in the House is along the Racing

516
00:25:09,973 --> 00:25:12,653
Speaker 18: Minister Winston Peters with this one and that's going to

517
00:25:12,693 --> 00:25:15,253
Speaker 18: pass through all stages of the House later today now,

518
00:25:15,253 --> 00:25:18,013
Speaker 18: according to Winston, who's just come out of a press conference,

519
00:25:18,093 --> 00:25:19,893
Speaker 18: this is something that the government has been working on

520
00:25:20,093 --> 00:25:21,133
Speaker 18: for some time and.

521
00:25:21,173 --> 00:25:22,973
Speaker 19: We are courses to make sure that we had all

522
00:25:23,013 --> 00:25:28,053
Speaker 19: the facts. But the incidents of injuries is just unacceptable.

523
00:25:28,093 --> 00:25:31,333
Speaker 19: It's about sixty eight percent above the any acceptable benchmark

524
00:25:31,933 --> 00:25:34,773
Speaker 19: and mirrors internationally some of the records there as well.

525
00:25:35,733 --> 00:25:36,853
Speaker 19: And so in the end, we have to make a

526
00:25:36,933 --> 00:25:37,893
Speaker 19: decision and we're making one.

527
00:25:38,053 --> 00:25:41,613
Speaker 18: So interestingly, he said that the racing industry, the greyhound sector,

528
00:25:41,693 --> 00:25:44,173
Speaker 18: learned about this is the same time as everybody else,

529
00:25:44,293 --> 00:25:45,373
Speaker 18: So there's quite a few.

530
00:25:45,413 --> 00:25:46,853
Speaker 9: I mean, you could be listening to this right now.

531
00:25:46,933 --> 00:25:48,493
Speaker 18: You could be one of the people involved in the

532
00:25:48,573 --> 00:25:51,973
Speaker 18: sector and have absolutely no idea what has happened. So, yeah,

533
00:25:52,093 --> 00:25:53,773
Speaker 18: that's the way that rints, Winston rolls.

534
00:25:54,373 --> 00:25:56,013
Speaker 2: If they can't be put down, where are all these

535
00:25:56,053 --> 00:25:57,573
Speaker 2: poor unemployed dislock is going to go?

536
00:25:58,053 --> 00:26:00,093
Speaker 9: Well, that's the thing. They're going to have to be rehomed.

537
00:26:00,133 --> 00:26:04,613
Speaker 18: And there's the government is anticipating and estimated about two

538
00:26:05,133 --> 00:26:08,053
Speaker 18: nine hundred racing greyhounds in New Zealand will have to

539
00:26:08,093 --> 00:26:12,293
Speaker 18: be taken into some loving homes because of this announcement.

540
00:26:12,413 --> 00:26:15,053
Speaker 18: So he did say that some would be going overseas

541
00:26:15,093 --> 00:26:17,413
Speaker 18: as well, but the vast majority would stay in New Zealand.

542
00:26:17,413 --> 00:26:20,253
Speaker 18: So if you're looking for a new very friend, there's

543
00:26:20,533 --> 00:26:22,213
Speaker 18: going to be a lot of them on the market

544
00:26:22,253 --> 00:26:23,893
Speaker 18: coming up soon, so he's going to be working with

545
00:26:24,013 --> 00:26:27,533
Speaker 18: the SPCA and other animal charities to make sure they're

546
00:26:27,533 --> 00:26:28,093
Speaker 18: all rehomed.

547
00:26:28,213 --> 00:26:30,213
Speaker 3: Yeah, do you think Winston will get quite a better

548
00:26:30,253 --> 00:26:32,853
Speaker 3: pushback on this? Jason, he's been a champion of the

549
00:26:32,933 --> 00:26:34,493
Speaker 3: racing industry as a whole for some time.

550
00:26:34,973 --> 00:26:36,813
Speaker 9: He has, but his hands were somewhat tired.

551
00:26:36,853 --> 00:26:38,533
Speaker 18: I mean, he made the point right at the beginning

552
00:26:38,613 --> 00:26:41,853
Speaker 18: that there had been three reports into greyhound racing that

553
00:26:42,013 --> 00:26:44,213
Speaker 18: essentially all came to the same conclusion that it was

554
00:26:44,293 --> 00:26:47,093
Speaker 18: dangerous for the dogs and it was unnecessary, and he

555
00:26:47,213 --> 00:26:49,293
Speaker 18: said that this is essentially the right thing to do.

556
00:26:49,533 --> 00:26:52,853
Speaker 18: One of the questions I had was is horse racing next?

557
00:26:52,933 --> 00:26:54,253
Speaker 18: And that's what I asked Winston today.

558
00:26:54,373 --> 00:26:56,693
Speaker 19: In the horse racing industry, both of the TOTS and

559
00:26:56,733 --> 00:26:58,693
Speaker 19: the gulps, we have a fund and we had in

560
00:26:58,773 --> 00:27:02,773
Speaker 19: this industry as well to improve amenities to make racing safer.

561
00:27:02,973 --> 00:27:05,773
Speaker 18: So essentially he said that the horse racing industry is

562
00:27:05,893 --> 00:27:08,093
Speaker 18: actually a lot safer for various different reasons.

563
00:27:08,413 --> 00:27:11,533
Speaker 9: That is not on the government's radar. But however, I

564
00:27:11,653 --> 00:27:12,533
Speaker 9: had to eat a little.

565
00:27:12,373 --> 00:27:14,253
Speaker 18: Bit of a humble pie, and how I should have

566
00:27:14,333 --> 00:27:16,853
Speaker 18: learned a lesson right now, but that I've been here

567
00:27:16,893 --> 00:27:19,493
Speaker 18: for about almost ten years. That Winston is always ready

568
00:27:19,573 --> 00:27:21,413
Speaker 18: to make you look a fool. When I asked what

569
00:27:21,613 --> 00:27:25,733
Speaker 18: the difference in terms of the legislation and the specifications

570
00:27:25,773 --> 00:27:28,733
Speaker 18: were between horse racing and dog racing, never listened. Would

571
00:27:28,733 --> 00:27:30,773
Speaker 18: you mind describing just a bit of the difference between

572
00:27:31,253 --> 00:27:33,693
Speaker 18: horse racing and greenhoud racing in terms of the safety

573
00:27:33,773 --> 00:27:34,293
Speaker 18: aspect of it?

574
00:27:34,373 --> 00:27:36,093
Speaker 9: Why are it okay for horses.

575
00:27:35,813 --> 00:27:36,573
Speaker 5: But not great us?

576
00:27:36,853 --> 00:27:40,413
Speaker 19: Well, they're different animals. Had you noticed that they're totally

577
00:27:40,453 --> 00:27:41,173
Speaker 19: different animals?

578
00:27:41,293 --> 00:27:41,493
Speaker 13: Mate?

579
00:27:42,173 --> 00:27:43,573
Speaker 2: He is always ready with a quiver.

580
00:27:43,813 --> 00:27:46,613
Speaker 18: So I thought that I had asked a really ambiguous question,

581
00:27:46,773 --> 00:27:49,173
Speaker 18: But listening back, I thought it was pretty specific.

582
00:27:49,293 --> 00:27:51,733
Speaker 9: So no, if you're listening, if you're a fan of.

583
00:27:51,733 --> 00:27:53,693
Speaker 18: The ponies and you're listening to this, the government has

584
00:27:53,773 --> 00:27:55,813
Speaker 18: no plans to kibosh that industry.

585
00:27:55,973 --> 00:27:57,773
Speaker 2: Yeah, although I mean, is it going to plicate the

586
00:27:57,813 --> 00:28:00,253
Speaker 2: animal safety people or embolden them? And then they'll come

587
00:28:00,293 --> 00:28:03,133
Speaker 2: for the ponies next? That's the question, isn't it.

588
00:28:03,493 --> 00:28:05,773
Speaker 18: Well, I mean I think that this would embolden them

589
00:28:05,813 --> 00:28:08,253
Speaker 18: in terms of to come after the horses.

590
00:28:08,453 --> 00:28:10,293
Speaker 9: Yes, next, But you know, we've already.

591
00:28:10,293 --> 00:28:12,253
Speaker 18: I mean Steve Abel from the Green Party was actually

592
00:28:12,253 --> 00:28:13,893
Speaker 18: at the press conference sitting at the back, and the

593
00:28:13,973 --> 00:28:18,653
Speaker 18: Greens came out relatively quickly with a very press release

594
00:28:18,693 --> 00:28:20,532
Speaker 18: full of praise for the government for doing this one.

595
00:28:20,653 --> 00:28:22,933
Speaker 18: So you know, the people will be appeased for now.

596
00:28:23,013 --> 00:28:25,013
Speaker 18: And I think it's probably something that a lot of

597
00:28:25,013 --> 00:28:27,572
Speaker 18: the animal rates activists. I don't think anybody would look

598
00:28:27,613 --> 00:28:29,733
Speaker 18: at them and think it the right time to be

599
00:28:29,773 --> 00:28:31,933
Speaker 18: saying good now this one. I think they should probably

600
00:28:32,013 --> 00:28:33,453
Speaker 18: just take the time to say this is something that

601
00:28:33,493 --> 00:28:35,733
Speaker 18: should have happened for a long time, and I'm glad

602
00:28:35,773 --> 00:28:36,653
Speaker 18: the government's moving on it.

603
00:28:36,853 --> 00:28:37,053
Speaker 5: Well.

604
00:28:37,093 --> 00:28:39,293
Speaker 2: I hope all those greyhounds find a home. I know

605
00:28:39,413 --> 00:28:41,933
Speaker 2: the Simpson's had a lot of luck with Senna's little helper.

606
00:28:42,053 --> 00:28:42,213
Speaker 8: Yeah.

607
00:28:42,253 --> 00:28:45,893
Speaker 3: Great dogs. Yeah, Jason, thank you very much mate. It's

608
00:28:46,213 --> 00:28:49,013
Speaker 3: a very interesting development and we look forward to more.

609
00:28:49,493 --> 00:28:51,053
Speaker 9: Thanks guys. I'll talk to you a bit later with

610
00:28:51,333 --> 00:28:52,333
Speaker 9: when you use brakes.

611
00:28:52,453 --> 00:28:52,613
Speaker 20: Yep.

612
00:28:52,693 --> 00:28:56,053
Speaker 3: That is our political editor, Jason Wolves right. Going back

613
00:28:56,133 --> 00:28:58,413
Speaker 3: to dash cams, and this is on the bank of

614
00:28:58,453 --> 00:29:00,453
Speaker 3: a story in the New Zealand Herald at dash cam

615
00:29:01,093 --> 00:29:05,773
Speaker 3: footage of some pretty bad behavior on a South Island Road.

616
00:29:06,293 --> 00:29:07,933
Speaker 3: But the wider question we're put to you is if

617
00:29:07,973 --> 00:29:09,933
Speaker 3: you've got a dash cam, why do you have the

618
00:29:10,013 --> 00:29:11,653
Speaker 3: dash cam? How much did it cost, what was the

619
00:29:11,693 --> 00:29:14,413
Speaker 3: set up like, and has it saved you if there's

620
00:29:14,453 --> 00:29:17,253
Speaker 3: been some bad behavior on the road that wasn't your fault.

621
00:29:17,293 --> 00:29:19,293
Speaker 3: Oh eight hundred and eighty teen eighty is the number

622
00:29:19,333 --> 00:29:21,893
Speaker 3: to call Brian. You reckon. You've got to be careful

623
00:29:21,933 --> 00:29:22,733
Speaker 3: with the old dash cam.

624
00:29:23,773 --> 00:29:28,333
Speaker 6: Yeah, very careful. What you say something the life going

625
00:29:28,333 --> 00:29:32,493
Speaker 6: away for a weekend and we're having a pretty conversation

626
00:29:32,653 --> 00:29:36,693
Speaker 6: about our plans for the weekend. Yeah, we're driving along

627
00:29:36,773 --> 00:29:41,973
Speaker 6: and we'd send until I stopped. This is something wrong

628
00:29:44,213 --> 00:29:51,333
Speaker 6: that's recalling everything we say? If we everybody putting because

629
00:29:51,373 --> 00:29:52,973
Speaker 6: of you and this and listening to that.

630
00:29:54,373 --> 00:29:58,173
Speaker 3: Yeahs so just somedthing.

631
00:29:58,173 --> 00:30:01,293
Speaker 2: You've got to be a war some Yeah, yeah, I'll

632
00:30:01,613 --> 00:30:04,413
Speaker 2: keep the keep the well. You know, I'm sure there's

633
00:30:04,413 --> 00:30:05,573
Speaker 2: nothing to be ashamed of, Brian.

634
00:30:05,773 --> 00:30:08,053
Speaker 3: Yeah, but allow talk in the car. Nothing wrong with that.

635
00:30:08,333 --> 00:30:11,693
Speaker 13: I was probably probably never heard before.

636
00:30:14,733 --> 00:30:19,213
Speaker 2: He might have been some good stuff, Brian.

637
00:30:19,293 --> 00:30:21,893
Speaker 3: Thank you very much, mate. Go well. Oh one hundred

638
00:30:21,973 --> 00:30:23,893
Speaker 3: eighty ten eighty is the number to cool love to

639
00:30:23,933 --> 00:30:25,813
Speaker 3: hear from you if you've got a dash cam. Plenty

640
00:30:25,853 --> 00:30:29,053
Speaker 3: of teas coming through on nine two ninety two. Yet, hey, guys,

641
00:30:29,093 --> 00:30:31,453
Speaker 3: I've had a dash cam for six years and feel

642
00:30:31,533 --> 00:30:33,733
Speaker 3: so safe and empowered with it to record bad drivers

643
00:30:33,773 --> 00:30:37,573
Speaker 3: who could otherwise get off in a mishap from Mike, it'll.

644
00:30:37,373 --> 00:30:40,373
Speaker 2: Be interesting a question too that's come through on nine

645
00:30:40,453 --> 00:30:44,653
Speaker 2: two nine two. Are there any privacy issues around uploading

646
00:30:44,693 --> 00:30:47,453
Speaker 2: the content to social media because a lot of cash

647
00:30:48,213 --> 00:30:51,733
Speaker 2: dash cam owners and operators seem to be uploading their

648
00:30:51,733 --> 00:30:55,733
Speaker 2: footage because it certainly fills my feed, most of it

649
00:30:55,813 --> 00:30:57,893
Speaker 2: from overseas. And there was, of course that that famous

650
00:30:57,893 --> 00:31:00,533
Speaker 2: stuff I think was out of Russia with the comets

651
00:31:01,693 --> 00:31:04,173
Speaker 2: coming coming down. That was that was everywhere. But there's

652
00:31:04,173 --> 00:31:06,973
Speaker 2: a lot of dash cam footage out there. But I'm

653
00:31:06,973 --> 00:31:09,813
Speaker 2: pretty sure you can if it's happening out in the public,

654
00:31:09,893 --> 00:31:12,853
Speaker 2: it's fine, right, you're not filming an into one's house,

655
00:31:12,973 --> 00:31:15,333
Speaker 2: but it happens on the roads. I mean, you're looking

656
00:31:15,373 --> 00:31:18,173
Speaker 2: at it through your eyes recording it that way.

657
00:31:18,813 --> 00:31:20,973
Speaker 3: So a true question if you know, But I think

658
00:31:20,973 --> 00:31:23,133
Speaker 3: you're right. If you're in public, you're allowed to film

659
00:31:23,173 --> 00:31:24,973
Speaker 3: a third party, aren't you and if you upload it

660
00:31:25,053 --> 00:31:27,773
Speaker 3: on to social media, so be it. The other question

661
00:31:28,053 --> 00:31:30,053
Speaker 3: is with the new cars coming out like the Tesla's,

662
00:31:30,053 --> 00:31:33,133
Speaker 3: I believe they do effectively have deash cams, don't they, right,

663
00:31:33,973 --> 00:31:37,133
Speaker 3: just just stand it, yeah, just standards as those new models.

664
00:31:37,173 --> 00:31:39,013
Speaker 3: I mean, I certainly don't have in mind new car,

665
00:31:39,213 --> 00:31:40,933
Speaker 3: but if you've got a car that was in built

666
00:31:40,973 --> 00:31:42,613
Speaker 3: with the dishcam, love to hear from you as well.

667
00:31:42,933 --> 00:31:45,453
Speaker 2: Dave is questioning my analysis of the footage that kicked

668
00:31:45,493 --> 00:31:48,173
Speaker 2: this off that you can see in the Herald. Looks

669
00:31:48,213 --> 00:31:50,573
Speaker 2: like it's on the west coast of New Zealand somewhere

670
00:31:50,813 --> 00:31:55,013
Speaker 2: with a Campa van driving along. There's a dash cam behind,

671
00:31:55,653 --> 00:31:59,133
Speaker 2: and then another car undertakes in a very dangerous fashion.

672
00:31:59,453 --> 00:32:03,093
Speaker 2: I accuse the dash cam driver of tailgating. Hi, guys,

673
00:32:03,133 --> 00:32:06,013
Speaker 2: I just viewed the dashcam footage. The driver following isn't tailgating,

674
00:32:06,053 --> 00:32:07,573
Speaker 2: as he is using the two second rule. How do

675
00:32:07,653 --> 00:32:09,893
Speaker 2: you know that the only time he closes up is

676
00:32:09,933 --> 00:32:13,013
Speaker 2: because he sees the car behind closing in on him

677
00:32:13,293 --> 00:32:15,693
Speaker 2: from behind and he attempts to create space behind him.

678
00:32:15,933 --> 00:32:18,733
Speaker 2: Once the crazy driver passes on the inside, he goes

679
00:32:18,813 --> 00:32:22,493
Speaker 2: back to the two second rule, cheers Dave. Well, that's look, Dave,

680
00:32:23,333 --> 00:32:27,253
Speaker 2: I'm willing to I'm willing to go with you on

681
00:32:27,333 --> 00:32:29,053
Speaker 2: this one, but I think there's a very generous reading

682
00:32:29,093 --> 00:32:29,653
Speaker 2: of the situation.

683
00:32:29,773 --> 00:32:32,453
Speaker 3: Look pretty close to me. Yeah, oh, one hundred eighty

684
00:32:32,493 --> 00:32:35,053
Speaker 3: ten eighty is the number to call. It is sixteen

685
00:32:35,093 --> 00:32:35,413
Speaker 3: to two.

686
00:32:37,573 --> 00:32:41,013
Speaker 5: Matt Heath Tyler Adams taking your calls on eight hundred and.

687
00:32:41,013 --> 00:32:45,293
Speaker 1: Eighty Matt Eathen Tyler Adams afternoons news talks, they'd.

688
00:32:45,173 --> 00:32:48,253
Speaker 3: Be thirteen to two. We're talking about dash cams and

689
00:32:48,413 --> 00:32:49,773
Speaker 3: plenty of ticks coming through if I.

690
00:32:49,853 --> 00:32:51,373
Speaker 2: Got a deesh cam. But we're just to show my

691
00:32:51,453 --> 00:32:55,133
Speaker 2: girlfriend crashing my car all the bloody time. That's from Dave. Really,

692
00:32:55,653 --> 00:32:57,453
Speaker 2: your girlfriend's regularly crashing your car?

693
00:32:57,533 --> 00:32:59,653
Speaker 3: How many cars have you gone through or your girlfriend

694
00:32:59,733 --> 00:33:00,173
Speaker 3: gone through.

695
00:33:00,973 --> 00:33:04,013
Speaker 2: I've definitely crashed my car more times than my girlfriend's

696
00:33:04,053 --> 00:33:07,093
Speaker 2: crashed here in the time we've been together. I believe

697
00:33:07,173 --> 00:33:10,173
Speaker 2: the police can take it as evidence against you. Check

698
00:33:10,253 --> 00:33:13,413
Speaker 2: it out though. That's from Bob. I mean, that's the thing.

699
00:33:14,533 --> 00:33:16,373
Speaker 2: But you know you want the truth out there, don't you.

700
00:33:16,453 --> 00:33:17,933
Speaker 2: That's the point of a dash cam. You have a

701
00:33:18,013 --> 00:33:19,693
Speaker 2: dash cam because you just want the truth out there.

702
00:33:19,773 --> 00:33:22,733
Speaker 2: You back it if you've done something wrong or you've

703
00:33:22,773 --> 00:33:25,093
Speaker 2: done something right, and you're the type of person that

704
00:33:25,453 --> 00:33:27,733
Speaker 2: believes you're generally going to be doing something right. But

705
00:33:27,853 --> 00:33:29,653
Speaker 2: I mean most of us want the truth out there.

706
00:33:29,733 --> 00:33:31,333
Speaker 2: That's the point of a dashcam. And if it's used

707
00:33:31,373 --> 00:33:35,053
Speaker 2: against you because you've been the person and the wrong,

708
00:33:35,173 --> 00:33:38,053
Speaker 2: then sure that's also a good thing. Wouldn't You would

709
00:33:38,093 --> 00:33:38,893
Speaker 2: have been honest anyway?

710
00:33:39,013 --> 00:33:41,173
Speaker 3: Yeah, you should be a good driver regardless, But it

711
00:33:41,213 --> 00:33:43,053
Speaker 3: would make you a better driver, wouldn't it. Knowing that

712
00:33:43,173 --> 00:33:45,413
Speaker 3: that footage is being videoed at all time would make

713
00:33:45,453 --> 00:33:48,333
Speaker 3: your far safer driver, wouldn't it because you know that it's,

714
00:33:48,773 --> 00:33:50,213
Speaker 3: you know, recording everything.

715
00:33:50,533 --> 00:33:54,253
Speaker 2: Yeah, And this is an interesting take on the Doggies

716
00:33:54,293 --> 00:33:58,333
Speaker 2: the Greyhound Band, the difference between the differences horses are

717
00:33:58,373 --> 00:34:00,573
Speaker 2: made to race, the dog races on its own instincts.

718
00:34:00,733 --> 00:34:03,533
Speaker 2: What a joke. Winston got support from the industry and

719
00:34:03,653 --> 00:34:06,933
Speaker 2: then crapped all over them. I mean that there is

720
00:34:06,973 --> 00:34:09,893
Speaker 2: some truth in that that the dogs they're chasing the

721
00:34:09,933 --> 00:34:13,653
Speaker 2: bunny yeahs being forced by the rider.

722
00:34:13,893 --> 00:34:16,333
Speaker 3: Yeah, Colin, how are you?

723
00:34:17,893 --> 00:34:18,093
Speaker 21: Yeah?

724
00:34:18,573 --> 00:34:18,772
Speaker 14: Good?

725
00:34:19,453 --> 00:34:19,773
Speaker 22: Mere right?

726
00:34:19,893 --> 00:34:20,093
Speaker 21: Yeah?

727
00:34:20,173 --> 00:34:22,013
Speaker 3: Got you? You're calling from Australia, are.

728
00:34:22,013 --> 00:34:24,293
Speaker 13: You yeah, yeah, yeah.

729
00:34:24,373 --> 00:34:27,133
Speaker 6: The I'm a Kiwi trucker over here doing the doing

730
00:34:27,173 --> 00:34:32,933
Speaker 6: the miles. I run Brisbanes of a Kai by three

731
00:34:33,053 --> 00:34:35,493
Speaker 6: or the two or three times a week, depending on

732
00:34:35,573 --> 00:34:38,652
Speaker 6: the run, so I'm knocking out between six and seven

733
00:34:39,333 --> 00:34:45,813
Speaker 6: week A lot of truck is we have. We have

734
00:34:46,013 --> 00:34:50,173
Speaker 6: the dash cans for our protection because everybody has a

735
00:34:50,253 --> 00:34:52,732
Speaker 6: crash involving a truck always reckons as the truck's fault.

736
00:34:52,773 --> 00:34:55,093
Speaker 6: But you know, you sit up here in the cab

737
00:34:55,173 --> 00:34:58,093
Speaker 6: and the stuff you see is just absolutely mind blowing.

738
00:34:58,133 --> 00:35:01,053
Speaker 6: I mean every trip, every single trip, you know, you're

739
00:35:01,053 --> 00:35:03,813
Speaker 6: sitting there sucking your breath and going, oh that was close,

740
00:35:05,133 --> 00:35:07,453
Speaker 6: you know. So it's a good way of protecting yourself,

741
00:35:07,773 --> 00:35:07,933
Speaker 6: you know.

742
00:35:08,413 --> 00:35:08,453
Speaker 8: So.

743
00:35:09,053 --> 00:35:10,692
Speaker 6: I mean, if you were one at fault, well that's

744
00:35:10,733 --> 00:35:13,333
Speaker 6: it there, you're in the in the vault. But you

745
00:35:13,413 --> 00:35:16,333
Speaker 6: have those And can I mention one of the most

746
00:35:16,453 --> 00:35:19,172
Speaker 6: dangerous things that I see on the road that people

747
00:35:19,373 --> 00:35:23,133
Speaker 6: just aren't aware of, And that's normally the passengers. You

748
00:35:23,213 --> 00:35:25,573
Speaker 6: get all these lovely young ladies sitting in the passenger

749
00:35:25,653 --> 00:35:29,253
Speaker 6: seat and they have their feet up on the dash right,

750
00:35:30,293 --> 00:35:33,773
Speaker 6: what's what's directly in front of on the dash an

751
00:35:33,813 --> 00:35:38,172
Speaker 6: air bag system, all right, so when they're if they

752
00:35:38,293 --> 00:35:41,453
Speaker 6: have a tender bender knows the tail and that air

753
00:35:41,533 --> 00:35:44,973
Speaker 6: bag explodes faster than the shotgun pillate goes off. What

754
00:35:45,093 --> 00:35:46,493
Speaker 6: do you think happens to their legs?

755
00:35:46,733 --> 00:35:48,253
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not gonna be good, is it.

756
00:35:49,253 --> 00:35:55,093
Speaker 6: They have created some horrendous injuries and permanent injuries and

757
00:35:55,213 --> 00:35:57,212
Speaker 6: the cringes. I mean, I don't know what they're trying

758
00:35:57,253 --> 00:35:59,172
Speaker 6: to cool down by putting their feet up on the dash,

759
00:35:59,293 --> 00:36:01,853
Speaker 6: but or if it's just comfortable, I don't know. But

760
00:36:02,373 --> 00:36:04,172
Speaker 6: you know, that's probably one of the most dangerous things

761
00:36:04,213 --> 00:36:08,813
Speaker 6: I see as far as you know, and non it's

762
00:36:08,893 --> 00:36:10,853
Speaker 6: got actually a driving fault with a fault do you

763
00:36:10,933 --> 00:36:12,973
Speaker 6: see time and time again as all these young people

764
00:36:13,093 --> 00:36:15,693
Speaker 6: nice and supple and all that with their feed up

765
00:36:15,733 --> 00:36:18,733
Speaker 6: on the dash. But yeah, you certainly we've had this

766
00:36:18,933 --> 00:36:21,013
Speaker 6: area over here, the road that I drive on, the

767
00:36:21,053 --> 00:36:24,732
Speaker 6: Bridge Highway, in the last twelve months has been over

768
00:36:24,853 --> 00:36:28,853
Speaker 6: thirty two deaths. We've had three die four I think

769
00:36:28,933 --> 00:36:32,853
Speaker 6: actually three died in the last two weeks. Both accidents

770
00:36:32,933 --> 00:36:35,853
Speaker 6: involved a house that was moving. Now, how you can

771
00:36:35,973 --> 00:36:39,013
Speaker 6: drive past two pilot vehicles a police car and then

772
00:36:39,093 --> 00:36:43,733
Speaker 6: still hit a house beyond me cheap. But you know

773
00:36:44,773 --> 00:36:48,133
Speaker 6: you see some crazy driving, you really do. We're speed

774
00:36:48,173 --> 00:36:50,333
Speaker 6: limited to one hundred k speed limited a hundred caps

775
00:36:50,333 --> 00:36:54,253
Speaker 6: struck over here, but we're running twenty six meters sixty

776
00:36:54,293 --> 00:36:57,333
Speaker 6: four ton. You know we can't stop on a dime.

777
00:36:58,413 --> 00:37:00,373
Speaker 2: Hey, Colin, do you have with the footage that you

778
00:37:00,653 --> 00:37:05,013
Speaker 2: have captured where people are doing stupid things or dangerous

779
00:37:05,053 --> 00:37:08,493
Speaker 2: things or potentially accidents that don't involve you. Have you

780
00:37:08,573 --> 00:37:13,573
Speaker 2: ever afforded the footage on to authorities or anything like that?

781
00:37:15,293 --> 00:37:17,493
Speaker 6: Not over here. I did once in New Zealand when

782
00:37:17,493 --> 00:37:20,373
Speaker 6: a young collar passed me with three or four of

783
00:37:20,453 --> 00:37:22,253
Speaker 6: his mates in the car, and I said to the

784
00:37:22,333 --> 00:37:26,413
Speaker 6: cops that must be Davey's car flac Audies four or five.

785
00:37:26,453 --> 00:37:29,813
Speaker 6: And they passed me on a on a bridge coming

786
00:37:29,853 --> 00:37:32,413
Speaker 6: out of Tamaranui, which has got a bend in it

787
00:37:32,773 --> 00:37:34,493
Speaker 6: you can't see around the corner. And they passed me

788
00:37:34,573 --> 00:37:39,453
Speaker 6: on WLO lines going over the bridge, just absolutely nailing

789
00:37:39,533 --> 00:37:43,773
Speaker 6: it in the wet you know, no regard for oncoming traffic.

790
00:37:43,813 --> 00:37:48,053
Speaker 6: And I actually took that the chipping and gave to

791
00:37:48,093 --> 00:37:50,013
Speaker 6: the cops. They followed it through and he was on

792
00:37:50,133 --> 00:37:53,453
Speaker 6: a restricted license. He should have had any passengers in

793
00:37:53,533 --> 00:37:56,692
Speaker 6: the car. Yeah, he got the big stars for that one.

794
00:37:57,053 --> 00:37:58,173
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can imagine that.

795
00:37:58,293 --> 00:38:00,613
Speaker 6: What happens when you get the rich Orkland just coming down.

796
00:38:02,533 --> 00:38:05,373
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can imagine the insurance companies love it. I

797
00:38:05,453 --> 00:38:07,252
Speaker 3: mean if they, you know, there was a situation where

798
00:38:07,293 --> 00:38:08,933
Speaker 3: it was a reduced premiere, I'd love that.

799
00:38:10,413 --> 00:38:11,413
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, no, definitely.

800
00:38:11,533 --> 00:38:11,573
Speaker 23: No.

801
00:38:11,733 --> 00:38:13,893
Speaker 6: We see stuff all the time, and guys, now I

802
00:38:13,933 --> 00:38:17,333
Speaker 6: don't bother posting it. It's always fun watching other people's stuff.

803
00:38:17,413 --> 00:38:21,213
Speaker 6: But nobody's immune. We all make mistakes, we all do

804
00:38:21,413 --> 00:38:23,533
Speaker 6: silly things, you know, every now and again, I mean,

805
00:38:24,173 --> 00:38:27,172
Speaker 6: believe or not not. Last night, I left McCay last

806
00:38:27,293 --> 00:38:29,853
Speaker 6: night at eight o'clock and over here at the moment

807
00:38:29,933 --> 00:38:32,813
Speaker 6: it's ten fifty three. I've got about an hour and

808
00:38:32,933 --> 00:38:35,133
Speaker 6: a half to go and I'll be finishing the park up.

809
00:38:35,653 --> 00:38:39,333
Speaker 6: But when I was heading up doors, I came coming

810
00:38:39,373 --> 00:38:41,293
Speaker 6: down what they call a big dipper north of Gingin,

811
00:38:42,173 --> 00:38:44,053
Speaker 6: and just as I flipped me lights up, after the

812
00:38:44,093 --> 00:38:47,173
Speaker 6: trucking gone pass, I said him it, holy heck, what

813
00:38:47,413 --> 00:38:50,933
Speaker 6: was that? And it was actually two coppers standing on

814
00:38:51,013 --> 00:38:53,093
Speaker 6: the side of the road. Right on the fog line

815
00:38:53,453 --> 00:38:57,373
Speaker 6: in the pitch black. No hovers, no car, no lights,

816
00:38:57,453 --> 00:38:59,693
Speaker 6: no nothing. You know what they were doing? What they

817
00:38:59,733 --> 00:39:01,933
Speaker 6: were standing there with his head drop, Well we call

818
00:39:02,013 --> 00:39:03,493
Speaker 6: them a head drive. They were standing there with a

819
00:39:04,053 --> 00:39:08,692
Speaker 6: canheld radar trying to traffic trucks coming downhill all over

820
00:39:08,733 --> 00:39:09,933
Speaker 6: speeding cheapers.

821
00:39:10,133 --> 00:39:12,253

00:39:57,693 --> 00:39:59,212

853
00:40:26,853 --> 00:40:30,293
Speaker 3: I hope you're having a great Shuesday, and I think

854
00:40:30,333 --> 00:40:33,413
Speaker 3: this is going to be a great conversation weddings. So

855
00:40:33,653 --> 00:40:36,693
Speaker 3: the economic downturn has taken a toll on the wedding industry,

856
00:40:36,773 --> 00:40:40,293
Speaker 3: with fewer booking, smaller guest lists, and people ditching luxury

857
00:40:40,653 --> 00:40:43,813
Speaker 3: luxuries like flowers and hairstylists. Some are of a court

858
00:40:43,893 --> 00:40:46,573
Speaker 3: of course his wedding season in New Zealand, but celebrants,

859
00:40:46,613 --> 00:40:50,053
Speaker 3: wedding planners caterers and the like say, business is as

860
00:40:50,173 --> 00:40:51,853
Speaker 3: hard as it's ever been this.

861
00:40:52,013 --> 00:40:55,893
Speaker 2: Year, particularly hard in Hawks Bay. I understand, yeah, where

862
00:40:55,933 --> 00:40:57,813
Speaker 2: bookings are down and down and down.

863
00:40:58,173 --> 00:41:00,853
Speaker 3: So Greg Miller runs the restaurant on the Linden Estate

864
00:41:00,933 --> 00:41:03,293
Speaker 3: Winery in Esque Valley and the Hawks being in said

865
00:41:03,373 --> 00:41:06,453
Speaker 3: he's never had a season quite like it. I quote,

866
00:41:06,493 --> 00:41:09,333
Speaker 3: normally I would have done ted winnings by now from

867
00:41:09,373 --> 00:41:12,333
Speaker 3: August on, but I haven't done one yet. My first

868
00:41:12,373 --> 00:41:15,573
Speaker 3: weddings not until January. I've lost like a whole year

869
00:41:15,653 --> 00:41:19,692
Speaker 3: and a half of weddings, so particularly hard in Hawk's Bay.

870
00:41:19,813 --> 00:41:21,933
Speaker 2: But be I was doing some sometimes, he was doing Friday,

871
00:41:21,933 --> 00:41:23,013
Speaker 2: Saturday and Sunday weddings.

872
00:41:23,253 --> 00:41:26,173
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, giving them through, getting them through absolutely. But

873
00:41:26,253 --> 00:41:28,333
Speaker 3: the question you want to put to you is, if

874
00:41:28,373 --> 00:41:30,573
Speaker 3: you've got a wedding coming up of your you've recently

875
00:41:30,693 --> 00:41:33,413
Speaker 3: had a wedding, have you tried to cut down costs

876
00:41:33,813 --> 00:41:35,533
Speaker 3: the days of the wedding planner? And a lot of

877
00:41:35,573 --> 00:41:37,973
Speaker 3: people use a wedding planner. They are, you know, very

878
00:41:38,053 --> 00:41:40,813
Speaker 3: handy if you're trying to set up a wedding. But

879
00:41:41,013 --> 00:41:43,453
Speaker 3: I do wonder now with the cost of living situation

880
00:41:43,533 --> 00:41:45,813
Speaker 3: and people trying to save money where they can. Is

881
00:41:45,933 --> 00:41:47,933
Speaker 3: then an expense that they're no longer willing to pay

882
00:41:48,133 --> 00:41:50,573
Speaker 3: j Loo j Loo to plan your wedding.

883
00:41:50,653 --> 00:41:53,533
Speaker 2: Yeah, it wasn't Jaylo the wedding planner. Yeah, so yeah,

884
00:41:54,253 --> 00:41:58,533
Speaker 2: so expensive weddings. How do you do a less expensive wedding?

885
00:41:58,853 --> 00:42:00,653
Speaker 2: And do you need to spend a lot of money

886
00:42:00,853 --> 00:42:01,652
Speaker 2: to do a wedding?

887
00:42:01,853 --> 00:42:02,093
Speaker 4: Justice?

888
00:42:02,253 --> 00:42:04,373
Speaker 2: Is that part of it? Is it important? It's an

889
00:42:04,373 --> 00:42:06,773
Speaker 2: important day? So it is a bad sign if you

890
00:42:06,853 --> 00:42:10,453
Speaker 2: don't bankrupt yourself doing it. In terms of the love

891
00:42:10,533 --> 00:42:14,493
Speaker 2: of the relationship, because arguably a wedding traditionally as you

892
00:42:14,573 --> 00:42:17,453
Speaker 2: get together and it's such a big do and everyone's

893
00:42:17,493 --> 00:42:20,293
Speaker 2: there that it has to last. It's a commitment you're

894
00:42:20,333 --> 00:42:22,973
Speaker 2: going on. We've set our vows in front of all

895
00:42:23,013 --> 00:42:25,573
Speaker 2: these people. We've put this big do on, so we're

896
00:42:25,573 --> 00:42:28,252
Speaker 2: going look pretty stupid if this doesn't work out, right, Yeah,

897
00:42:28,533 --> 00:42:31,733
Speaker 2: that's the essential traditional idea. You know, you go, you know,

898
00:42:32,453 --> 00:42:35,973
Speaker 2: and you know before you know, not the case with

899
00:42:36,013 --> 00:42:39,213
Speaker 2: everyone now, but it used to be before God and

900
00:42:39,293 --> 00:42:41,173
Speaker 2: your family and everything, you said, this is going to

901
00:42:41,213 --> 00:42:42,293
Speaker 2: work and you have.

902
00:42:42,333 --> 00:42:44,053
Speaker 3: For a whole lot of cash at it, you certainly

903
00:42:44,133 --> 00:42:45,613
Speaker 3: do but but.

904
00:42:47,253 --> 00:42:49,253
Speaker 2: Does it have to be expensive? Does it mean the

905
00:42:49,333 --> 00:42:51,172
Speaker 2: same thing if you just get a few people together,

906
00:42:51,173 --> 00:42:54,172
Speaker 2: a few trestle tables, have some sausage rolls out, get

907
00:42:54,173 --> 00:42:57,133
Speaker 2: a couple of crates, bear and you know, wander up

908
00:42:57,293 --> 00:42:59,252
Speaker 2: a mode strip on your lawn.

909
00:42:59,893 --> 00:43:01,732
Speaker 3: What would be your thoughts on I just went thinking

910
00:43:01,773 --> 00:43:05,133
Speaker 3: about that, and I you know, I've said on the

911
00:43:05,173 --> 00:43:08,013
Speaker 3: show before that my partner May and I we've been

912
00:43:08,053 --> 00:43:09,493
Speaker 3: together for a long time, and I get a lot

913
00:43:09,533 --> 00:43:11,813
Speaker 3: of grief about it, but we will get married at

914
00:43:11,893 --> 00:43:15,253
Speaker 3: some stage. And I was always a bit of a

915
00:43:15,333 --> 00:43:17,773
Speaker 3: grinch about the amounts that I was going to see

916
00:43:17,853 --> 00:43:18,093
Speaker 3: in on a.

917
00:43:18,093 --> 00:43:20,173
Speaker 2: Whe're cheap about absolutely everything.

918
00:43:21,013 --> 00:43:23,733
Speaker 3: I know it's because I don't like spending money. I

919
00:43:23,853 --> 00:43:25,732
Speaker 3: like just put in it away, like Scrooge mc duck,

920
00:43:25,773 --> 00:43:27,893
Speaker 3: so I can have my little pool full of money

921
00:43:27,933 --> 00:43:30,613
Speaker 3: at some stage. But the more that I think about it,

922
00:43:30,653 --> 00:43:32,893
Speaker 3: it is I like the idea of a big party,

923
00:43:33,093 --> 00:43:35,133
Speaker 3: and if I can afford it, and if we can

924
00:43:35,213 --> 00:43:38,013
Speaker 3: afford it, I'd like to go all out as much

925
00:43:38,053 --> 00:43:40,013
Speaker 3: as we can. And I don't know how much I'm

926
00:43:40,013 --> 00:43:42,213
Speaker 3: talking here, but I wouldn't want to go the no

927
00:43:42,373 --> 00:43:43,053
Speaker 3: frills begin.

928
00:43:43,373 --> 00:43:47,652
Speaker 2: I'll start giving you some numbers here, yeah, Tyler. Ten thousand, yep,

929
00:43:47,893 --> 00:43:49,213
Speaker 2: twenty thousand.

930
00:43:49,613 --> 00:43:53,333
Speaker 3: Getting closer, But thirty thousands that would be where i'd

931
00:43:53,333 --> 00:43:54,533
Speaker 3: starts some things.

932
00:43:54,653 --> 00:43:57,453
Speaker 2: Not about forty thousands your limit.

933
00:43:57,453 --> 00:44:00,013
Speaker 3: Forty forty thousands a limit, yeap. At that stage, then

934
00:44:00,013 --> 00:44:01,893
Speaker 3: the flowers are going no winning planner. I think we

00:45:05,053 --> 00:45:08,533
Speaker 21: We had one of ten years ago, once for you ago,

962
00:45:08,613 --> 00:45:11,093

964
00:45:14,093 --> 00:45:14,973
Speaker 13: All fumes.

965
00:45:16,213 --> 00:45:20,293
Speaker 21: And we contribute, you know some to it. But my

966
00:45:21,053 --> 00:45:23,093
Speaker 21: line of those sons three years ago cost sixty thousand

967
00:45:23,493 --> 00:45:26,053
Speaker 21: for his wedding, and the ones that are getting man

968
00:45:26,093 --> 00:45:28,733
Speaker 21: made next year, they're looking at about thirty but cutting

969
00:45:28,733 --> 00:45:31,893
Speaker 21: it down to like eighty people and finding places that

970
00:45:31,933 --> 00:45:34,013
Speaker 21: have got a lot cheaper. But it has got so

971
00:45:34,213 --> 00:45:36,973
Speaker 21: expensive the whole wedding industry, like five grand to get

972
00:45:37,293 --> 00:45:41,613
Speaker 21: photography inn you know, the forest is super expensive. It

973
00:45:41,773 --> 00:45:45,533
Speaker 21: all adds, So I understand why people are cutting back

974
00:45:45,573 --> 00:45:49,133
Speaker 21: in this economy because it is a very expensive thing

975
00:45:49,253 --> 00:45:52,453
Speaker 21: to do. We did our youngest sons about ten years

976
00:45:52,493 --> 00:45:55,732
Speaker 21: ago we did it in the school, in our community hall.

977
00:45:55,813 --> 00:46:00,373
Speaker 21: We got in the roast company, did ever red thing ourselves.

978
00:46:00,813 --> 00:46:05,013
Speaker 21: You know, I've showed table covers and it costs about

979
00:46:05,013 --> 00:46:07,333
Speaker 21: twelve grand. But you can't give away with that now.

980
00:46:07,373 --> 00:46:07,933
Speaker 24: I don't think.

981
00:46:08,413 --> 00:46:10,853
Speaker 2: Hey, so, Donna, of these did have you got four kids?

982
00:46:11,093 --> 00:46:12,493
Speaker 2: Is that that that the situation?

983
00:46:13,933 --> 00:46:15,893
Speaker 21: No, I've got one for the second time.

984
00:46:16,653 --> 00:46:20,293
Speaker 2: Okay, so how do you that's interesting how much money

985
00:46:20,333 --> 00:46:22,093
Speaker 2: you put into the second one, that's a whole different,

986
00:46:23,133 --> 00:46:27,732
Speaker 2: different discussion. So when you you say that you put

987
00:46:27,813 --> 00:46:30,893
Speaker 2: some money into it as parents, is that is that

988
00:46:31,013 --> 00:46:33,173
Speaker 2: negotiated with them? Or have you got a set amount

989
00:46:33,173 --> 00:46:35,253
Speaker 2: of money you give to your kids for the wedding.

990
00:46:36,693 --> 00:46:38,652
Speaker 21: We've got them more about the same amounts and we'll

991
00:46:38,693 --> 00:46:42,133
Speaker 21: give them. I don't want to say. You know, we've

992
00:46:42,133 --> 00:46:43,653
Speaker 21: go too with the other.

993
00:46:43,613 --> 00:46:44,333
Speaker 25: Parents in them.

994
00:46:44,653 --> 00:46:49,413
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, and so and so so the kids

995
00:46:49,453 --> 00:46:52,573
Speaker 2: that that went for a cheaper wedding, that's what they wanted.

996
00:46:52,653 --> 00:46:54,533
Speaker 2: The kid, the kid and their partner that went for

997
00:46:54,573 --> 00:46:57,133
Speaker 2: the cheaper wedding, that's what they wanted to do.

998
00:46:59,213 --> 00:47:00,493
Speaker 21: What was affordable at the time.

999
00:47:00,613 --> 00:47:06,613
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, and so you say the most expensive one

1000
00:47:06,653 --> 00:47:08,173
Speaker 2: you've been involved in was sixty thousand?

1001
00:47:10,173 --> 00:47:10,413
Speaker 8: Yeah?

1002
00:47:11,133 --> 00:47:15,493
Speaker 21: Yeah, I mean it was a very nice place.

1003
00:47:15,653 --> 00:47:17,453
Speaker 12: Yeo carry boom rock.

1004
00:47:18,053 --> 00:47:20,053
Speaker 2: But you know, was that the one that has that

1005
00:47:20,133 --> 00:47:20,693
Speaker 2: one lasted?

1006
00:47:22,013 --> 00:47:22,212
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1007
00:47:22,933 --> 00:47:23,573
Speaker 3: Money well spent.

1008
00:47:24,853 --> 00:47:27,453
Speaker 2: Is there a correlation between spending sixty thousand on the

1009
00:47:27,493 --> 00:47:31,133
Speaker 2: wedding and shoring up the shoring up the relationship?

1010
00:47:32,453 --> 00:47:32,493
Speaker 5: No?

1011
00:47:32,613 --> 00:47:34,853
Speaker 21: I think it's about the age of Mary too young.

1012
00:47:35,333 --> 00:47:35,493
Speaker 26: Ah.

1013
00:47:35,773 --> 00:47:38,253
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, So you're a bit of an expert on

1014
00:47:38,293 --> 00:47:39,933
Speaker 3: this dinner by the sounds of it. What what do

1015
00:47:40,013 --> 00:47:43,733
Speaker 3: you reckon? Would be mid range for you know, somewhat

1016
00:47:43,813 --> 00:47:45,933
Speaker 3: decent wedding that you've got a nice place, that you've

1017
00:47:45,973 --> 00:47:49,133
Speaker 3: got food for everybody, that you've got the photographer. What

1018
00:47:49,253 --> 00:47:51,333
Speaker 3: are we looking at now in twenty twenty four?

1019
00:47:52,653 --> 00:47:55,933
Speaker 21: Probably about thirty five for a three level place.

1020
00:47:56,533 --> 00:47:58,333
Speaker 4: Yeah but.

1021
00:47:59,853 --> 00:48:02,133
Speaker 21: Sorry, certain always that's right.

1022
00:48:02,253 --> 00:48:03,413
Speaker 3: So the disk came going off.

1023
00:48:04,973 --> 00:48:08,293
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's kind of like a facts machine.

1024
00:48:12,133 --> 00:48:14,173
Speaker 3: Thirty five though. That's up there, isn't it, donnie?

1025
00:48:14,173 --> 00:48:14,293
Speaker 14: You know?

1026
00:48:14,453 --> 00:48:18,053
Speaker 3: For because a lot of couple that are getting married,

1027
00:48:18,333 --> 00:48:20,493
Speaker 3: it's probably at a time where they might want to

1028
00:48:20,493 --> 00:48:22,533
Speaker 3: get into a house, or they've got a big mortgage,

1029
00:48:22,853 --> 00:48:25,493
Speaker 3: or they're just starting to have children. So the cost

1030
00:48:25,533 --> 00:48:28,573
Speaker 3: are piling up then to chuck thirty five k on

1031
00:48:28,933 --> 00:48:30,893
Speaker 3: one day, and I know it's an important day, but

1032
00:48:31,013 --> 00:48:33,813
Speaker 3: that's a lot of cash, it is.

1033
00:48:33,973 --> 00:48:36,733
Speaker 21: And people are doing stuff now like getting pizza trucks

1034
00:48:37,413 --> 00:48:40,213
Speaker 21: and hiring halls or doing it outdoors, and there are

1035
00:48:40,293 --> 00:48:44,333
Speaker 21: other ways of doing it. But I think that's why

1036
00:48:44,453 --> 00:48:46,413
Speaker 21: the industry, I think is finally hard because it has

1037
00:48:46,453 --> 00:48:47,733
Speaker 21: been incredibly expensive.

1038
00:48:49,013 --> 00:48:51,293
Speaker 2: And Donna, do you give any money to the honeymoon

1039
00:48:51,933 --> 00:48:53,733

00:48:53,813 --> 00:48:54,453
Speaker 2: actual wedding?

Speaker 16: second is the food, and the third's the music. When

1092
00:51:17,213 --> 00:51:20,893
Speaker 16: it comes to the booze, we went through I think

1093
00:51:20,933 --> 00:51:23,213
Speaker 16: it was Liquorland, and what you can do is essentially

1094
00:51:23,293 --> 00:51:26,573
Speaker 16: whatever is not used, they will pay you back for it,

1095
00:51:26,933 --> 00:51:29,573
Speaker 16: So you essentially take a chiller, fill it with grog.

1096
00:51:30,413 --> 00:51:32,373
Speaker 16: At the end it's all telly. That was what wasn't

1097
00:51:32,493 --> 00:51:35,373
Speaker 16: used and they'll pay you back for it. So for us,

1098
00:51:35,453 --> 00:51:39,493
Speaker 16: I think we had about five grand budget for alcohol,

1099
00:51:40,893 --> 00:51:43,413
Speaker 16: and in the end there was so little leftover that

1100
00:51:43,733 --> 00:51:46,493
Speaker 16: we just decided to dish it out to all the

1101
00:51:46,533 --> 00:51:47,573
Speaker 16: guests when they left, you.

1102
00:51:49,573 --> 00:51:49,613
Speaker 23: Know.

1103
00:51:50,213 --> 00:51:52,653
Speaker 16: And when it comes to food, I think the biggest

1104
00:51:52,653 --> 00:51:56,213
Speaker 16: tip with that with the food is going to a

1105
00:51:56,253 --> 00:52:00,413
Speaker 16: couple of weddings beforehand, trying trying different cater as, foods,

1106
00:52:00,653 --> 00:52:02,213
Speaker 16: and even if you're going to do the food truck thing,

1107
00:52:02,293 --> 00:52:05,653
Speaker 16: that's cool, but try and see if you can sample

1108
00:52:05,693 --> 00:52:09,732
Speaker 16: the food beforehand. You can go cheap in that area.

1109
00:52:09,813 --> 00:52:11,732
Speaker 16: But I think it's really important that if you've got

1110
00:52:11,813 --> 00:52:15,053
Speaker 16: a good number of guests, gauge who's coming, see what

1111
00:52:15,213 --> 00:52:17,053
Speaker 16: kind of food they're going to. Like, you can't cater

1112
00:52:17,173 --> 00:52:21,053
Speaker 16: to everyone, you know, maybe see if someone's got like

1113
00:52:21,093 --> 00:52:25,093
Speaker 16: a vegetarian option for the old vegetarian or vegan out there,

1114
00:52:26,693 --> 00:52:29,453
Speaker 16: but make sure we've got good food for us as well.

1115
00:52:29,573 --> 00:52:31,253
Speaker 14: We looked into you know, like.

1116
00:52:31,333 --> 00:52:34,493
Speaker 16: The live bands. Love a live band, but the thing

1117
00:52:34,613 --> 00:52:37,093
Speaker 16: we noticed with live bands is the music stops and

1118
00:52:37,133 --> 00:52:41,533
Speaker 16: they need to take a break point and then what

1119
00:52:41,653 --> 00:52:44,253
Speaker 16: happens is kind of the momentum of the party stops.

1120
00:52:44,853 --> 00:52:48,573
Speaker 2: The man to fire up as yuie boom oh.

1121
00:52:48,893 --> 00:52:51,013
Speaker 16: I'm pretty sure you could mate, but you can't always

1122
00:52:51,013 --> 00:52:51,413
Speaker 16: trust the.

1123
00:52:53,133 --> 00:52:53,573
Speaker 3: That's right.

1124
00:52:55,053 --> 00:52:57,773
Speaker 16: So what we did instead we got two guys out

1125
00:52:57,813 --> 00:53:01,053
Speaker 16: of Wellington, two DJs. And essentially what that means if

1126
00:53:01,093 --> 00:53:02,813
Speaker 16: one needs to go to the loot, well the music

1127
00:53:02,853 --> 00:53:06,733
Speaker 16: keeps going and cost wise looking at that, Yes, it's

1128
00:53:06,773 --> 00:53:08,893
Speaker 16: two people, but a band, what are you paying four people?

1129
00:53:09,253 --> 00:53:12,413
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can get you can get those those you know,

1130
00:53:12,693 --> 00:53:14,613
Speaker 2: a couple of dudes that turn in with a bit

1131
00:53:14,653 --> 00:53:17,133
Speaker 2: of technology and throw it together as long as your

1132
00:53:17,173 --> 00:53:19,693
Speaker 2: DJ can play Wagon, Wheel of Course.

1133
00:53:21,453 --> 00:53:22,493
Speaker 4: Or our song.

1134
00:53:22,773 --> 00:53:24,533
Speaker 16: And it's been a trend for a couple of their mates.

1135
00:53:24,573 --> 00:53:26,493
Speaker 16: So Angel by Robert.

1136
00:53:26,293 --> 00:53:32,813
Speaker 2: Will I've noticed the thing that at a few weddings

1137
00:53:32,813 --> 00:53:37,093
Speaker 2: I've been to over the few recent times. And look,

1138
00:53:37,853 --> 00:53:39,613
Speaker 2: I might be speaking out of turn there, but on

1139
00:53:39,653 --> 00:53:41,773
Speaker 2: a couple occasions there's been an uncle that's put up

1140
00:53:41,813 --> 00:53:45,093
Speaker 2: his hand to provide the bears from his homebrew, and

1141
00:53:45,253 --> 00:53:47,933
Speaker 2: I think you need to be really careful with that, certainly.

1142
00:53:48,013 --> 00:53:50,733
Speaker 3: Do you don't know how long that's been brillied.

1143
00:53:51,133 --> 00:53:54,212
Speaker 2: Because an uncle can turn up with some pretty poor

1144
00:53:54,413 --> 00:53:56,853
Speaker 2: own brew in my experience, yeah, exactly.

1145
00:53:57,133 --> 00:53:59,573
Speaker 3: One hundred and eighty ten eighty glens dropped off. And

1146
00:53:59,613 --> 00:54:01,933
Speaker 3: thank you very much, mate. I love to hear how

1147
00:54:01,973 --> 00:54:04,173
Speaker 3: you saved money. And if you do save money in

1148
00:54:04,213 --> 00:54:07,493
Speaker 3: the wedding, is there the best strategy when it is

1149
00:54:07,773 --> 00:54:09,933
Speaker 3: a day that is hopefully setting you up for the

1150
00:54:10,013 --> 00:54:13,013
Speaker 3: rest of your life with your lovely wife or husband.

1151
00:54:13,293 --> 00:54:15,453
Speaker 2: We have HESITEXS on knowing two nine two. We had

1152
00:54:15,493 --> 00:54:17,653
Speaker 2: the best wedding, approximately two hundred and fifty people, and

1153
00:54:17,813 --> 00:54:21,573
Speaker 2: we had a BWAO reception. And it's interesting, isn't it

1154
00:54:21,613 --> 00:54:24,413
Speaker 2: that you're expected to whine and dine in a bunch

1155
00:54:24,413 --> 00:54:27,453
Speaker 2: of people at your wedding because you spend the whole

1156
00:54:27,493 --> 00:54:29,692
Speaker 2: day just looking going, I spent that much on each

1157
00:54:29,773 --> 00:54:33,252
Speaker 2: one of those plates and that person's not even eating it. Yeah,

1158
00:54:33,573 --> 00:54:36,172
Speaker 2: Or that bottle of wine has been opened and there's

1159
00:54:36,253 --> 00:54:38,133
Speaker 2: just there's just sitting on the table. I can't return that.

1160
00:54:38,573 --> 00:54:41,373
Speaker 2: You know, it depends, It depends on how you look

1161
00:54:41,413 --> 00:54:43,173
Speaker 2: at a wedding. I guess you just have to on

1162
00:54:43,213 --> 00:54:45,733
Speaker 2: the day, except that you're getting absolutely runched by your

1163
00:54:45,773 --> 00:54:46,493
Speaker 2: friends and family.

1164
00:54:46,653 --> 00:54:48,613
Speaker 3: Yeah, so you kind of hope it's cost neutral, that

1165
00:54:48,973 --> 00:54:51,813
Speaker 3: you know, you don't ask for money, but everybody secretly hopes.

1166
00:54:51,813 --> 00:54:53,172
Speaker 3: You know, when you have a wedding and you say,

1167
00:54:53,213 --> 00:54:55,813
Speaker 3: we don't expect gifts, but if you'd like to contribute

1168
00:54:55,853 --> 00:54:58,093
Speaker 3: to our honeymoon, here's an account that you put money in.

1169
00:54:58,453 --> 00:55:00,613
Speaker 3: You're kind of hoping it's cost neutral, right that if

1170
00:55:00,613 --> 00:55:03,453
Speaker 3: it's one hundred bucks ahead. The minimum that you wan't

1171
00:55:03,493 --> 00:55:07,732
Speaker 3: good a hundred bucks. Everybody pays to a wedding.

1172
00:55:07,853 --> 00:55:10,293
Speaker 2: So you putting on a fifty thousand dollars wedding and

1173
00:55:10,453 --> 00:55:13,053
Speaker 2: you're going to rinse your your guests for fifty thousand dollars.

1174
00:55:13,093 --> 00:55:13,413
Speaker 2: I don't know.

1175
00:55:14,013 --> 00:55:17,613
Speaker 3: Good luck, buddy, Maureen. You reckon cheap and cheerful was

1176
00:55:17,613 --> 00:55:18,013
Speaker 3: the way to go.

1177
00:55:19,373 --> 00:55:19,573
Speaker 10: Yeah.

1178
00:55:19,653 --> 00:55:20,293
Speaker 8: Absolutely.

1179
00:55:20,413 --> 00:55:23,533
Speaker 15: We've had three in our family. And the first one

1180
00:55:23,773 --> 00:55:27,133
Speaker 15: of forty people, it was eleven o'clock in the morning.

1181
00:55:28,453 --> 00:55:30,173
Speaker 8: And it was it was perfect.

1182
00:55:30,213 --> 00:55:31,253
Speaker 15: There was no stress.

1183
00:55:31,453 --> 00:55:32,693
Speaker 12: That was just easy.

1184
00:55:32,813 --> 00:55:37,413
Speaker 15: I think we all finished about five that afternoon. Second

1185
00:55:37,453 --> 00:55:42,733
Speaker 15: one was the flashy one and very expensive. And the

1186
00:55:42,893 --> 00:55:46,533
Speaker 15: third one, yep, that was great. That was a sort

1187
00:55:46,533 --> 00:55:49,013
Speaker 15: of outside picnic here in New Zealand. But then we

1188
00:55:49,173 --> 00:55:51,693
Speaker 15: traced over to England to do it all over again,

1189
00:55:51,773 --> 00:55:55,053
Speaker 15: so it was rather but they did have a nice

1190
00:55:55,133 --> 00:55:55,692
Speaker 15: cream truck.

1191
00:55:56,253 --> 00:55:56,732
Speaker 3: Oh good.

1192
00:55:57,813 --> 00:56:00,253
Speaker 2: Oh yeah. We've had a couple of suggestions for getting

1193
00:56:00,253 --> 00:56:03,053
Speaker 2: mister Whippy involved. How come the second one was flash

1194
00:56:03,213 --> 00:56:05,613
Speaker 2: Was that the choice of the child and their partner

1195
00:56:05,693 --> 00:56:07,293
Speaker 2: that day it was imported to them to have a

1196
00:56:07,333 --> 00:56:07,933
Speaker 2: flash one.

1197
00:56:08,413 --> 00:56:12,333
Speaker 8: Yes, it was, it was, it was, but you know,

1198
00:56:12,653 --> 00:56:14,693
Speaker 8: it's not always the best way to go.

1199
00:56:15,333 --> 00:56:18,293
Speaker 2: Maureen, as a parent, are you are you putting how

1200
00:56:18,373 --> 00:56:19,973
Speaker 2: much cash are you putting into these weddings?

1201
00:56:20,493 --> 00:56:23,212
Speaker 15: You know, we gave the meats the same We've still

1202
00:56:23,253 --> 00:56:25,773
Speaker 15: got one to go, hopefully he does pushing chips on

1203
00:56:25,853 --> 00:56:30,853
Speaker 15: the beat. But yeah, no, they all got the same amount.

1204
00:56:31,013 --> 00:56:33,413
Speaker 15: So you know, we we were you know, allowed for

1205
00:56:33,533 --> 00:56:36,293
Speaker 15: inflation and what have you. But yeah, and we certainly

1206
00:56:36,413 --> 00:56:37,853
Speaker 15: didn't pay for the anymoon.

1207
00:56:38,453 --> 00:56:41,013
Speaker 2: This is a difficult question to answer, but do you

1208
00:56:41,133 --> 00:56:45,413
Speaker 2: think the flashness of the wedding is it all related

1209
00:56:45,453 --> 00:56:48,613
Speaker 2: to the seriousness of the relationship or the success of

1210
00:56:48,733 --> 00:56:49,533
Speaker 2: the relationship.

1211
00:56:51,373 --> 00:56:51,893
Speaker 7: I don't know.

1212
00:56:52,013 --> 00:56:54,213
Speaker 15: I think it just depends on the people, you know.

1213
00:56:54,933 --> 00:56:55,493
Speaker 8: Yeah, I don't.

1214
00:56:55,933 --> 00:56:57,652
Speaker 15: I just think it's what some people want.

1215
00:56:57,813 --> 00:57:00,493
Speaker 8: The eldest was just very low key and it was

1216
00:57:00,613 --> 00:57:01,533
Speaker 8: just easy.

1217
00:57:03,013 --> 00:57:05,413
Speaker 15: Yeah, I don't know, it's just and the second one,

1218
00:57:05,573 --> 00:57:09,573
Speaker 15: you know, only daughter. Yeah, I can understand, you know

1219
00:57:10,213 --> 00:57:14,093
Speaker 15: why they did it. No, no, keep keep too simple.

1220
00:57:14,173 --> 00:57:17,773
Speaker 8: We had finger food, we had cupcakes to start.

1221
00:57:17,613 --> 00:57:19,973
Speaker 4: With, and it was just it was just great.

1222
00:57:20,053 --> 00:57:22,653
Speaker 15: It was just really really relaxing and it was in

1223
00:57:22,773 --> 00:57:23,733
Speaker 15: someone's backyard.

1224
00:57:25,213 --> 00:57:25,413
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1225
00:57:25,733 --> 00:57:28,933
Speaker 2: Any disasters across all these weddings. You've been involved with

1226
00:57:29,093 --> 00:57:31,133
Speaker 2: any major disasters that you want to share?

1227
00:57:31,573 --> 00:57:34,413
Speaker 8: No, no, the second, no, the third one.

1228
00:57:35,253 --> 00:57:38,333
Speaker 15: Noise control turned up at ten o'clock. But we were

1229
00:57:38,373 --> 00:57:43,013
Speaker 15: in the red zone for goodness sake, no disasters.

1230
00:57:43,133 --> 00:57:44,293
Speaker 8: Everyone behaved.

1231
00:57:45,333 --> 00:57:48,253
Speaker 15: No incriminating photos, no, all good?

00:57:53,453 --> 00:57:56,533
Speaker 8: Oh yes, yes, no, that was that was quite a

1235
00:57:56,613 --> 00:57:57,253
Speaker 8: bigger fear.

1236

1311
01:01:38,853 --> 01:01:39,653
Speaker 2: for the second and third?

1312
01:01:39,773 --> 01:01:41,773
Speaker 3: Is that a good luck rather than congratulations?

1313
01:01:42,493 --> 01:01:42,613
Speaker 8: Oh?

1314
01:01:42,653 --> 01:01:44,493
Speaker 3: One hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number of

1315
01:01:44,573 --> 01:01:45,533
Speaker 3: call Hey you, Brenda?

1316
01:01:46,653 --> 01:01:50,613
Speaker 22: Hi, Hi, no, thank you for taking my call. I

1317
01:01:51,093 --> 01:01:54,173
Speaker 22: just wanted to talk mention that I'm at the other

1318
01:01:54,373 --> 01:01:57,053
Speaker 22: end of the scale. I'm not talking about my wedding.

1319
01:01:57,333 --> 01:01:59,413
Speaker 22: This is a wedding of one of my family members,

1320
01:02:00,373 --> 01:02:02,733
Speaker 22: which is only about three or four weeks ago.

1321
01:02:04,133 --> 01:02:04,733
Speaker 5: And they.

1322
01:02:06,533 --> 01:02:10,373
Speaker 22: Spoke to the both sets of pairs and me as

1323
01:02:10,573 --> 01:02:16,893
Speaker 22: I'm the grandmother, and which was lovely, But they made

1324
01:02:16,933 --> 01:02:21,013
Speaker 22: a decision after sitting down doing lists of who to invite.

1325
01:02:21,733 --> 01:02:24,413
Speaker 22: It got ridiculous for both of them, and most of

1326
01:02:24,493 --> 01:02:27,333
Speaker 22: their people did not live in the same city as

1327
01:02:27,453 --> 01:02:30,133
Speaker 22: they live, so there would have been an awful lot

1328
01:02:30,173 --> 01:02:33,173
Speaker 22: of traveling, and they wanted to do a honeymoon, and

1329
01:02:33,333 --> 01:02:36,653
Speaker 22: they've got a huge mortgage, so they didn't have a

1330
01:02:36,773 --> 01:02:39,493
Speaker 22: wedding as you might think of a wedding. They were

1331
01:02:39,893 --> 01:02:44,533
Speaker 22: there was the partners the couple, a celebrant and a photographer,

1332
01:02:46,613 --> 01:02:49,853
Speaker 22: and they spent the day doing outdoor activities.

1333
01:02:50,053 --> 01:02:51,053
Speaker 7: After they got.

1334
01:02:50,973 --> 01:02:54,293
Speaker 22: Married, they did lots of fun things as a couple,

1335
01:02:54,613 --> 01:02:57,133
Speaker 22: just the two of them with no photos and nobody,

1336
01:02:58,853 --> 01:03:02,813
Speaker 22: and then only one or two days after that they

1337
01:03:02,893 --> 01:03:08,053
Speaker 22: went off on their honeymoon and they paid for everything themselves.

1338
01:03:08,413 --> 01:03:12,293
Speaker 22: The wedding was hardly any money at all, as you

1339
01:03:12,373 --> 01:03:14,813
Speaker 22: can imagine because it with no guests. Yeah, there with

1340
01:03:14,933 --> 01:03:18,773
Speaker 22: no food, no drink, no wedding presents, no asking for

1341
01:03:18,893 --> 01:03:20,573
Speaker 22: money for honeymoons, nothing.

1342
01:03:21,333 --> 01:03:26,733
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's an option. But isn't the isn't

1343
01:03:26,773 --> 01:03:30,533
Speaker 2: the idea of a wedding that you present your love

1344
01:03:30,613 --> 01:03:34,493
Speaker 2: for another person in front of your friends and family.

1345
01:03:34,653 --> 01:03:36,573
Speaker 2: Isn't that kind of Absolutely?

1346
01:03:36,853 --> 01:03:39,693
Speaker 22: But when you look at how many people like these

1347
01:03:39,773 --> 01:03:44,373
Speaker 22: two have been together for two or three years established

1348
01:03:44,413 --> 01:03:48,733
Speaker 22: themselves the people that matter in their world, that family

1349
01:03:48,813 --> 01:03:51,773
Speaker 22: and friends know how committed they are to each other.

1350
01:03:51,853 --> 01:03:54,893
Speaker 22: They don't have to prove it to the world. And

1351
01:03:55,213 --> 01:03:59,573
Speaker 22: so everybody was like, wow, I wish I'd have thought

1352
01:03:59,613 --> 01:04:01,453
Speaker 22: of that, you know some of their friends.

1353
01:04:02,173 --> 01:04:05,333
Speaker 2: But to me, that sounds like bliss them and I'm

1354
01:04:05,373 --> 01:04:07,173
Speaker 2: pleased there and love and they had their beautiful day

1355
01:04:07,173 --> 01:04:10,453
Speaker 2: from themselves. That sounds more like a datedding to me.

1356
01:04:11,773 --> 01:04:15,813
Speaker 22: Maybe it was then what matters to what I like?

1357
01:04:16,053 --> 01:04:19,733
Speaker 22: And either say I'm the older generation. I've had two

1358
01:04:19,813 --> 01:04:22,893
Speaker 22: of my own weddings in the past. I've seen my

1359
01:04:23,053 --> 01:04:28,573
Speaker 22: children married and everyone's been happy and had a glorious day,

1360
01:04:28,893 --> 01:04:32,613
Speaker 22: and a week or two later, the bride and the

1361
01:04:32,733 --> 01:04:36,373
Speaker 22: groom have difficult to remembering what they said to each

1362
01:04:36,453 --> 01:04:38,733
Speaker 22: other or to anybody else, because they were both slip

1363
01:04:38,853 --> 01:04:43,933
Speaker 22: and stressed. But the whole day, especially the especially the bride.

1364
01:04:43,653 --> 01:04:45,693
Speaker 2: It seems you know, yeah, well, I've been to a

1365
01:04:45,733 --> 01:04:47,533
Speaker 2: few weddings where I've struggled remember what I see it

1366
01:04:47,613 --> 01:04:48,053
Speaker 2: and did.

1367
01:04:48,733 --> 01:04:51,893
Speaker 22: Exactly had nothing to do with I was very related,

1368
01:04:51,893 --> 01:04:55,293
Speaker 22: and I think I think also that a lot of times,

1369
01:04:55,773 --> 01:04:58,333
Speaker 22: as someone once said to me, weddings are not for

1370
01:04:58,453 --> 01:05:00,973
Speaker 22: the couple. They're for everybody else that's invited.

1371
01:05:01,973 --> 01:05:04,653
Speaker 2: But there is something in there. It's like, as I say,

1372
01:05:04,733 --> 01:05:07,653
Speaker 2: it's like you're showing your love to your family, Like Brenda,

1373
01:05:07,733 --> 01:05:11,613
Speaker 2: don't they grandma like a bottle, like a glass of

1374
01:05:11,693 --> 01:05:12,693
Speaker 2: bubbles and a feed.

1375
01:05:12,973 --> 01:05:18,373
Speaker 22: No, what they owe me is absolutely nothing. I'm like

1376
01:05:18,573 --> 01:05:20,893
Speaker 22: a lot of people, and I'm not just talking about

1377
01:05:20,893 --> 01:05:25,093
Speaker 22: Grandma's now, I'm talking about all generations with children or grandchildren.

1378
01:05:25,373 --> 01:05:27,973
Speaker 22: We want them to be happy as long as you're happy.

1379
01:05:28,653 --> 01:05:31,653
Speaker 22: And unfortunately a lot of people who say I just

1380
01:05:31,773 --> 01:05:34,413
Speaker 22: want you to be happy, there are strings attached to it.

1381
01:05:35,653 --> 01:05:38,813
Speaker 22: They're expectations. Well, well, of course you've got to invite

1382
01:05:39,013 --> 01:05:43,253
Speaker 22: invite grandma or grandma or uncle or auntie or all

1383
01:05:43,333 --> 01:05:45,013
Speaker 22: those other people that you've met once.

1384
01:05:47,173 --> 01:05:50,413
Speaker 2: Like you invite you don't even know whether you invite

1385
01:05:50,493 --> 01:05:53,853
Speaker 2: no people like these people in your family invited no people,

1386
01:05:54,373 --> 01:05:56,653
Speaker 2: or you invite some people. There's always a line where

1387
01:05:56,653 --> 01:05:58,333
Speaker 2: you're where you're not inviting someone.

1388
01:05:58,493 --> 01:05:59,533
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's.

1389
01:06:01,293 --> 01:06:03,173
Speaker 22: Eggs and that's where they got stuck.

1390
01:06:03,413 --> 01:06:03,613
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1391
01:06:03,773 --> 01:06:06,693
Speaker 2: Really, whether it's fifty one hundred or two hundred, there's

1392
01:06:07,493 --> 01:06:08,253
Speaker 2: always a line.

1393
01:06:08,533 --> 01:06:11,613
Speaker 3: They must have had. Who do you leave out exactly?

1394
01:06:11,773 --> 01:06:13,733
Speaker 3: Did they had some sort of barbecue after the fact,

1395
01:06:13,813 --> 01:06:16,773
Speaker 3: Brenda to say, right, we're married, now nobody nobody was invited,

1396
01:06:16,813 --> 01:06:17,613
Speaker 3: but we're having a barbie.

1397
01:06:18,053 --> 01:06:21,493
Speaker 22: No, no, nobody was there. They was just them and

1398
01:06:21,693 --> 01:06:25,293
Speaker 22: they were at a venue, but it was a private

1399
01:06:25,453 --> 01:06:30,093
Speaker 22: sort of a state if you like, where they paid

1400
01:06:30,453 --> 01:06:34,973
Speaker 22: to have the facility there, which was like a cabin

1401
01:06:35,133 --> 01:06:37,413
Speaker 22: or a tiny house or whatever you want to call them.

1402
01:06:38,093 --> 01:06:40,733
Speaker 22: And they spent the night together and then off they

1403
01:06:40,813 --> 01:06:43,173
Speaker 22: went to their honeymoon.

1404

1406
01:06:50,573 --> 01:06:53,093

1407
01:06:53,133 --> 01:06:57,213

1411
01:07:02,773 --> 01:07:05,333
Speaker 2: on them because they're happy. I'm not not judging anyone,

1412
01:07:05,373 --> 01:07:07,413
Speaker 2: but it just seems like you might as well just

1413
01:07:07,453 --> 01:07:09,133
Speaker 2: sign the forms and it's just a sort of a

1414
01:07:09,213 --> 01:07:11,613
Speaker 2: legal thing and then go go and have a day. Yeah,

1441
01:08:22,733 --> 01:08:25,372
Speaker 3: company and deal with loads and loads of different clients

Speaker 3: helping them celebrate their special moments. Weddings are a big

1443
01:08:29,053 --> 01:08:30,612
Speaker 3: part of our business, and I always say to my

1444
01:08:30,692 --> 01:08:33,612
Speaker 3: customers you have to look at the elements that celebrate

1445
01:08:33,692 --> 01:08:36,173
Speaker 3: you as a couple and what you want people to enjoy.

1446
01:08:36,293 --> 01:08:38,692
Speaker 3: Pinterest is amazing, but a lot of the photos on

1447
01:08:38,853 --> 01:08:41,013
Speaker 3: it have had a lot of money spent on it,

1448
01:08:41,093 --> 01:08:44,452
Speaker 3: and people forget the reality versus magazine images. My advice

1449
01:08:44,452 --> 01:08:47,492

1450
01:08:47,532 --> 01:08:47,972

1455
01:09:02,452 --> 01:09:06,732

1460
01:09:19,053 --> 01:09:21,412
Speaker 3: How are you good? So you got married earlier this year?

1461
01:09:22,053 --> 01:09:22,213
Speaker 5: Yes?

1462
01:09:22,333 --> 01:09:26,053
Speaker 28: Yeah, so I got married in June and we did

1463
01:09:26,253 --> 01:09:29,372
Speaker 28: a morning ceremony and a lunchtime reception, so we're all

1464
01:09:29,452 --> 01:09:32,173
Speaker 28: finished up by four because we did at lunch time reception.

1465
01:09:32,333 --> 01:09:35,293
Speaker 28: We didn't do any alcohol, so we had tearing coffee

1466
01:09:35,293 --> 01:09:37,572
Speaker 28: and heaps of city drinks. And then we did bread

1467
01:09:37,812 --> 01:09:41,093
Speaker 28: and salad and cold meats, the chicken from the supermarket

1468
01:09:41,173 --> 01:09:43,213
Speaker 28: and then cold meat from from my parents that all

1469
01:09:43,253 --> 01:09:46,893
Speaker 28: pre cooked, dished up, and it dessert. We did just

1470
01:09:46,933 --> 01:09:49,852
Speaker 28: a cake and some slices for the glue wooden free people.

1471
01:09:50,412 --> 01:09:55,293
Speaker 28: And I haven't heard anything from anyone about it being bad.

1472
01:09:55,452 --> 01:09:56,732
Speaker 28: In fact, I've only heard good things.

1473
01:09:56,933 --> 01:09:58,652
Speaker 2: Did you go off anywhere else after four?

1474
01:09:59,532 --> 01:09:59,652
Speaker 8: Oh?

1475
01:09:59,732 --> 01:10:01,093
Speaker 28: Yes? So we went off and we just did like

1476
01:10:01,093 --> 01:10:05,452
Speaker 28: a honeymoon, but it's like a couple up to Hamner,

1477
01:10:05,532 --> 01:10:06,293
Speaker 28: so really chill.

1478
01:10:06,692 --> 01:10:09,012
Speaker 2: And so there was there was no alcohol all involved

1479
01:10:09,013 --> 01:10:09,412
Speaker 2: in the wedding.

1480
01:10:09,532 --> 01:10:12,052
Speaker 28: No no alcohol and that really cut down our costs.

1481
01:10:12,093 --> 01:10:13,933
Speaker 28: And then our reception hole. My dad is on the

1482
01:10:13,973 --> 01:10:17,133
Speaker 28: Chruss board for the hole, so we got that for

1483
01:10:17,213 --> 01:10:20,452
Speaker 28: really cheap and then we did it like a local church,

1484
01:10:20,652 --> 01:10:24,333
Speaker 28: like a country church. That was like not much at all.

1485
01:10:24,412 --> 01:10:27,253
Speaker 2: And was it a very special day for you? Was

1486
01:10:27,293 --> 01:10:27,772
Speaker 2: it one hundred?

1487
01:10:28,173 --> 01:10:30,652
Speaker 28: It's really special. It was really cool because we were

1488
01:10:30,692 --> 01:10:32,652
Speaker 28: able to have like enough people there that felt like

1489
01:10:32,692 --> 01:10:35,812
Speaker 28: we were celebrating, but it wasn't like we were catering

1490
01:10:35,853 --> 01:10:37,652
Speaker 28: to other people's needs. So we just said what we

1491
01:10:37,732 --> 01:10:38,213
Speaker 28: wanted to do.

1492
01:10:38,532 --> 01:10:41,093
Speaker 2: So if you don't mind sharing, how much do you

1493
01:10:41,173 --> 01:10:42,612
Speaker 2: think that that cost? In total?

1494
01:10:42,692 --> 01:10:45,173
Speaker 28: That was about ten thousand, but all of that was

1495
01:10:45,213 --> 01:10:48,333
Speaker 28: on my dress and my photographer Oh.

1496
01:10:48,293 --> 01:10:49,972
Speaker 2: Yeah, yea yeah yeah, see she got some good.

1497
01:10:49,893 --> 01:10:54,532
Speaker 28: Packs to We didn't feel like we had to lose

1498
01:10:54,612 --> 01:10:55,053
Speaker 28: out on it.

1499
01:10:55,253 --> 01:10:56,732
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's still it's.

1500
01:10:56,612 --> 01:10:59,253
Speaker 28: Been a fraction of what the average price for weddings are.

1501
01:10:59,412 --> 01:11:00,973
Speaker 2: So do you think you would have been happier if

1502
01:11:01,013 --> 01:11:03,412
Speaker 2: you'd spend forty thousand dollars if you could have? No,

1503
01:11:04,372 --> 01:11:05,133
Speaker 2: So you got everything you.

1504
01:11:05,133 --> 01:11:07,173
Speaker 28: Wanted, dressed, planning it, you got everything we wanted.

1505
01:11:07,452 --> 01:11:11,412
Speaker 2: Yeah, and did you miss some people cutting tracks on

1506
01:11:11,492 --> 01:11:14,293
Speaker 2: the dance floor when they had two bottles of wine each?

1507
01:11:15,333 --> 01:11:15,372
Speaker 23: No?

1508
01:11:15,692 --> 01:11:18,173
Speaker 28: No, In the problem is that most of our families

1509
01:11:18,173 --> 01:11:20,973
Speaker 28: are not into super dancing. So like we did the

1510
01:11:21,013 --> 01:11:24,732
Speaker 28: first dance like a bridal party dancing, but like people

1511
01:11:24,812 --> 01:11:27,732
Speaker 28: didn't actually want to dance, even just talking and wanted.

1512
01:11:28,412 --> 01:11:32,053
Speaker 2: I'm not normally into dancing till about four or five

1513
01:11:32,133 --> 01:11:34,093
Speaker 2: years hours into the function.

1514
01:11:34,293 --> 01:11:36,372
Speaker 28: That's a good time, we would you that would be

1515
01:11:36,412 --> 01:11:39,013
Speaker 28: the reality that people probably wouldn't dance. And they were like,

1516
01:11:39,093 --> 01:11:39,852
Speaker 28: oh that's okay.

1517
01:11:40,253 --> 01:11:43,452
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, Well congratulations, it sounds like you had a

1518
01:11:43,532 --> 01:11:47,012
Speaker 2: beautiful wedding and you're very happy and you didn't bankrupt yourself.

1519
01:11:47,053 --> 01:11:47,572
Speaker 2: So well done.

1520
01:11:47,853 --> 01:11:51,852
Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you, thank you very much, Azariah. Love that. Darryl.

1521
01:11:52,013 --> 01:11:52,612
Speaker 3: How are you man?

1522
01:11:53,732 --> 01:11:54,892
Speaker 13: Oh good? How are you good?

1523
01:11:55,133 --> 01:11:55,372
Speaker 5: Good?

1524
01:11:55,572 --> 01:11:58,452
Speaker 3: So the cheap a wedding and you reckon, you spent

1525
01:11:58,572 --> 01:12:00,213
Speaker 3: that the money you were going to spend on the

1526
01:12:00,253 --> 01:12:01,133
Speaker 3: wedding on something else.

1527
01:12:02,333 --> 01:12:02,532
Speaker 6: Yeah.

1528
01:12:02,612 --> 01:12:05,173
Speaker 13: Well we got married twenty three years ago now, so

1529
01:12:05,572 --> 01:12:10,133
Speaker 13: some Tomo in the UK. My wife's English, and we

1530
01:12:10,293 --> 01:12:12,412
Speaker 13: had to have two weddings, one down this end of

1531
01:12:12,452 --> 01:12:16,133
Speaker 13: the world, one in the UK. So money was an issue.

1532
01:12:16,532 --> 01:12:19,612
Speaker 13: So in the UK we hired a place in bath

1533
01:12:19,692 --> 01:12:22,372
Speaker 13: called the Assembly Rooms, which is just one room, just

1534
01:12:22,412 --> 01:12:26,172
Speaker 13: for an hour. And then I hired a local restaurant

1535
01:12:27,093 --> 01:12:29,372
Speaker 13: and they already have a set menu, they had a

1536
01:12:29,452 --> 01:12:32,173
Speaker 13: band already in place, and we just went there. And

1537
01:12:32,692 --> 01:12:35,213
Speaker 13: so I think all up our wedding for the UK

1538
01:12:35,412 --> 01:12:39,052
Speaker 13: was about three thousand pounds for forty fifty guests.

1539
01:12:39,333 --> 01:12:39,852
Speaker 2: That's not bad.

1540
01:12:40,133 --> 01:12:42,452
Speaker 13: And then I think from memory we've probably spent about

1541
01:12:42,452 --> 01:12:45,253
Speaker 13: double that on our honeymoon. I think, so the way

1542
01:12:45,293 --> 01:12:45,652
Speaker 13: it should be.

1543
01:12:46,213 --> 01:12:49,933
Speaker 2: Yeah, and how about your wedding back here in New Zealand.

1544
01:12:51,333 --> 01:12:54,412
Speaker 13: My parents dealt with that. That was a backyard wedding yep.

1545
01:12:54,933 --> 01:12:57,612
Speaker 13: So now our job was just to get there.

1546
01:12:57,893 --> 01:12:58,093
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1547
01:12:59,612 --> 01:13:03,692
Speaker 13: Yeah, oh, I wouldn't want to say the UK one

1548
01:13:03,812 --> 01:13:05,972
Speaker 13: was pretty good. That was that was the official wedding.

1549
01:13:06,253 --> 01:13:08,572
Speaker 2: Did you have a second honeymoon after the New Zealand one.

1550
01:13:09,853 --> 01:13:12,213
Speaker 13: No, no, just an ongoing honeymoon.

1551
01:13:11,812 --> 01:13:13,173
Speaker 3: I think, and we just know that.

1552
01:13:13,333 --> 01:13:14,652
Speaker 2: So you're still in the honeymoon period.

1553
01:13:15,652 --> 01:13:18,852
Speaker 13: Oh yeah, probably Yeah, twenty three years and going strong.

1554
01:13:18,973 --> 01:13:19,933
Speaker 5: So it's great love that.

1555
01:13:20,013 --> 01:13:21,052
Speaker 3: Where'd you go for your honeymoon?

1556
01:13:22,652 --> 01:13:25,813
Speaker 13: As we left the UK went to Raratonga, first into Australia,

1557
01:13:26,853 --> 01:13:28,613
Speaker 13: New Zealand and then Venati.

1558
01:13:28,812 --> 01:13:30,973
Speaker 2: Oh that's interesting because from the UK you could go

1559
01:13:31,093 --> 01:13:32,652
Speaker 2: to the you know, the City of Love, Paris, You

1560
01:13:32,692 --> 01:13:34,772
Speaker 2: can go to a lot of places. But you flew

1561
01:13:34,853 --> 01:13:35,572
Speaker 2: the way down this way.

1562
01:13:36,853 --> 01:13:37,173
Speaker 28: We had to.

1563
01:13:37,372 --> 01:13:39,572
Speaker 13: Yeah, we had to come down this way. Got family

1564
01:13:39,572 --> 01:13:42,213
Speaker 13: of Raratonga too, so it was a really good trip.

1565
01:13:42,933 --> 01:13:45,852
Speaker 13: But yeah, I don't think you have to go over

1566
01:13:45,933 --> 01:13:47,173
Speaker 13: the top. You have to. I think a lot of

1567
01:13:47,213 --> 01:13:49,133
Speaker 13: people need to remember that the wedding's about you and

1568
01:13:49,253 --> 01:13:53,772
Speaker 13: your your partner, not necessarily about everybody else. Yeah, you

1569
01:13:53,893 --> 01:13:54,892
Speaker 13: do what you enjoy.

1570
01:13:55,253 --> 01:13:57,732
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you had people there because we're talking to

1571
01:13:57,853 --> 01:14:00,492
Speaker 2: someone before that that that member of their family had

1572
01:14:00,492 --> 01:14:02,452
Speaker 2: a wedding that was just the people getting married and

1573
01:14:02,492 --> 01:14:05,093
Speaker 2: no one else. But I would have thought, and this

1574
01:14:05,213 --> 01:14:06,852
Speaker 2: is maybe this is an old fashioned way of looking

1575
01:14:06,853 --> 01:14:08,932
Speaker 2: at it. But that part of a we is getting

1576
01:14:08,933 --> 01:14:11,572
Speaker 2: the people you know in the family around you to

1577
01:14:12,133 --> 01:14:14,532
Speaker 2: make sort of a public statement about your love for

1578
01:14:14,612 --> 01:14:15,052
Speaker 2: this person.

1579
01:14:15,213 --> 01:14:18,572
Speaker 13: Right, Yeah, that's right. I mean the UK wedding night

1580
01:14:18,772 --> 01:14:21,253
Speaker 13: of any of my family and only my wife and

1581
01:14:21,412 --> 01:14:24,492
Speaker 13: me and all of our friends. So it was only

1582
01:14:24,572 --> 01:14:26,133
Speaker 13: fair to have something else down at the end of

1583
01:14:26,173 --> 01:14:30,572
Speaker 13: the world. But yeah, it was an enjoyable time and

1584
01:14:30,652 --> 01:14:31,812
Speaker 13: it went. Didn't have to break the bank.

1585
01:14:32,013 --> 01:14:32,812
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeap, love it.

1586
01:14:33,492 --> 01:14:35,412
Speaker 2: Later on the twenty three years Darrel one done.

1587
01:14:35,452 --> 01:14:37,732
Speaker 3: Yeah. Oh, eight hundred eighty ten eighty is the number

1588
01:14:37,732 --> 01:14:39,692
Speaker 3: of call. How did you save money on your wedding?

1589
01:14:39,732 --> 01:14:41,772
Speaker 3: A lot of people are trying to do that as

1590
01:14:41,973 --> 01:14:44,812
Speaker 3: the wedding season kicks in to gear with the cost

1591
01:14:44,893 --> 01:14:45,333
Speaker 3: of living.

1592
01:14:45,612 --> 01:14:47,612
Speaker 2: Here's a text how tight No alcohol. It doesn't have

1593
01:14:47,692 --> 01:14:52,892
Speaker 2: to be champagne, but sparkling wine wouldn't kill you, which

1594
01:14:52,973 --> 01:14:54,652
Speaker 2: is if you go if you went for a wedding

1595
01:14:54,692 --> 01:14:57,333
Speaker 2: there was no alcohol at all, because because there was

1596
01:14:57,572 --> 01:15:00,013
Speaker 2: there was an argument here and I might be wrong

1597
01:15:00,053 --> 01:15:02,452
Speaker 2: here and people could push back on that. But people

1598
01:15:02,612 --> 01:15:04,213
Speaker 2: just having to come along to your wedding to watch

1599
01:15:04,293 --> 01:15:07,532
Speaker 2: you get married, is it a bit I don't know.

1600
01:15:08,333 --> 01:15:10,692
Speaker 2: Wab be the wrong word, but narcissistic to expect people

1601
01:15:10,772 --> 01:15:14,612
Speaker 2: to sit there without the reward of a meal and

1602
01:15:14,772 --> 01:15:15,532
Speaker 2: some drinks.

1603
01:15:15,853 --> 01:15:17,892
Speaker 3: I don't know is from the bride's point of view

1604
01:15:17,933 --> 01:15:20,093
Speaker 3: that would take the streets off the best man saying something,

1605
01:15:20,133 --> 01:15:22,652
Speaker 3: we're ridiculous when it comes to speeches. But if you've

1606
01:15:22,692 --> 01:15:24,452
Speaker 3: had a dry wedding, love to hear from you as well. Oh,

1607
01:15:24,452 --> 01:15:26,852
Speaker 3: eight hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number to call.

1608
01:15:26,933 --> 01:15:31,173
Speaker 3: It is nine to three, the issues that affect you

1609
01:15:31,532 --> 01:15:33,012
Speaker 3: and a bit of fun along the way.

1610
01:15:33,253 --> 01:15:36,972
Speaker 1: Matt Heath and Taylor Adams afternoons you for twenty twenty four.

1611
01:15:37,173 --> 01:15:40,293
Speaker 3: You've talked said be six to three.

1612
01:15:41,372 --> 01:15:43,452
Speaker 2: He's a text on weddings on nine two nine two

1613
01:15:43,532 --> 01:15:45,492
Speaker 2: only losers get married. When a man marries is with

1614
01:15:45,652 --> 01:15:48,333
Speaker 2: is instantly reduced by fifty percent. Divorces more likely than

1615
01:15:48,412 --> 01:15:50,253
Speaker 2: nine and half of your assets and money are gone.

1616
01:15:50,492 --> 01:15:53,213
Speaker 2: It's more risky these days with social media. Wise men,

1617
01:15:53,293 --> 01:15:55,133
Speaker 2: don't marry. What do you mean it's more risky these

1618
01:15:55,173 --> 01:15:56,052
Speaker 2: days with social media?

1619
01:15:56,333 --> 01:15:57,213
Speaker 3: What is it about?

1620
01:15:57,253 --> 01:16:01,412
Speaker 2: Looks? Well, there's we've got Kimberly here.

Speaker 3: talking about money, but that's the point of this convo.

1629
01:16:35,013 --> 01:16:37,133
Speaker 3: So why do you start at? Could you do me?

1630

Speaker 3: Could you do me? A wedding for five grand?

1631
01:16:41,692 --> 01:16:45,412
Speaker 30: In fact, that is exactly around about where my price

1632
01:16:45,532 --> 01:16:46,372
Speaker 30: points starts.

1633
01:16:46,452 --> 01:16:51,333
Speaker 31: Like my mini weddings start for ten guests, including the

1634
01:16:51,412 --> 01:16:56,492
Speaker 31: bride and groom for five five hundred and twenty dollars and.

1635
01:16:56,492 --> 01:16:58,412

Speaker 20: So that includes a gorgeous.

1639
01:17:08,692 --> 01:17:12,852
Speaker 30: Wedding venue in Auckland, which is a little white chapel,

1640
01:17:13,173 --> 01:17:19,132
Speaker 30: very charming, only twenty minutes from Auckland's CBD. You'll also

Speaker 30: which includes a reception of finger food which is more

1644
01:17:36,732 --> 01:17:37,933
Speaker 30: than substantial.

1645
01:17:38,093 --> 01:17:41,532
Speaker 25: You'll get a boogie Champagne found in which every wedding

1646
01:17:41,732 --> 01:17:47,932
Speaker 25: has to have, as I'm concerned, a romantic wedding floral

1647
01:17:49,253 --> 01:17:54,172
Speaker 25: to just add the elements of us style.

1648
01:17:54,532 --> 01:17:55,133

Speaker 3: That has been a great conversation. But after three o'clock.

1658
01:18:13,133 --> 01:18:15,573
Speaker 2: We're talking about shotgun etiquette.

1659
01:18:15,692 --> 01:18:16,013
Speaker 3: All right?

1660
01:18:16,093 --> 01:18:17,572

01:18:17,532 --> 01:18:20,692
Speaker 3: Nine two nine two is the text number, News, Sport

1662
01:18:20,772 --> 01:18:22,852
Speaker 3: and Weather on its way. You listening to Matt and Tyler, Good.

1663
01:18:22,772 --> 01:18:35,532
Speaker 10: Afternoon, talking with you all afternoon.

1664
01:18:35,812 --> 01:18:39,612
Speaker 1: It's Matt Heathan Taylor Adams Afternoons you for twenty twenty

1665
01:18:39,692 --> 01:18:41,253
Speaker 1: four News Talk said.

1666
01:18:41,173 --> 01:18:44,812
Speaker 3: Be good afternoon to you. Seven past three. Now, just

1667
01:18:44,853 --> 01:18:46,652
Speaker 3: before we get into the next topic, we had a

1668
01:18:46,893 --> 01:18:50,532
Speaker 3: fiery call from Bill who rang in during the news

1669
01:18:50,612 --> 01:18:53,773
Speaker 3: break and he said, I want to talk about the greyhound.

1670
01:18:54,013 --> 01:18:56,133
Speaker 3: So we decided to bring Bill into the mix and

1671
01:18:56,572 --> 01:18:58,093
Speaker 3: let him say what he wants to say about the

1672
01:18:58,093 --> 01:18:59,012
Speaker 3: greyhounds very shortly.

1673
01:18:59,173 --> 01:19:01,572
Speaker 2: Yeah, because with the Sinnispy Cross party support for the

1674
01:19:01,652 --> 01:19:03,692
Speaker 2: greyhound ban, and we're only hearing one side of it,

1675
01:19:03,933 --> 01:19:06,173
Speaker 2: so Bill's got the other side to it. You don't

1676
01:19:06,213 --> 01:19:07,812
Speaker 2: think they should ban greyhound racing?

1677
01:19:09,333 --> 01:19:13,173
Speaker 12: No, As I said, how many greyhounds get killed a year?

1678
01:19:13,893 --> 01:19:16,133
Speaker 2: Well, I understand I could be wrong, but off the

1679
01:19:16,173 --> 01:19:18,733
Speaker 2: top of my head, I believe that thirty one greyhound

1680
01:19:18,893 --> 01:19:23,372
Speaker 2: sev been euthanized because of injuries from greyhound racing since

1681
01:19:23,412 --> 01:19:25,732
Speaker 2: September twenty one. That's just off the top of my head.

1682
01:19:26,772 --> 01:19:29,892
Speaker 12: Okay, Well, how many people get killed in cars? Are here?

1683
01:19:29,893 --> 01:19:30,772
Speaker 12: Are they going to ban them?

1684
01:19:30,933 --> 01:19:32,532
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot more people get killed in cars.

1685
01:19:32,692 --> 01:19:34,572
Speaker 2: I mean that is always the question. That is always

1686
01:19:34,572 --> 01:19:35,293
Speaker 2: the question, isn't it?

1687
01:19:36,333 --> 01:19:36,532
Speaker 14: Yeah?

1688
01:19:37,253 --> 01:19:41,412
Speaker 2: But I guess yeah, it's a tough one, isn't it.

1689
01:19:41,532 --> 01:19:45,133
Speaker 2: Because Winston Peters, who's the persons that sort of seems

1690
01:19:45,133 --> 01:19:47,973
Speaker 2: to be spearheading this band. He's very supportive of the

1691
01:19:48,013 --> 01:19:52,372
Speaker 2: horse racing industry, So it is interesting that that he's

1692
01:19:52,452 --> 01:19:54,532
Speaker 2: the one that has seen it as being cruel, and

1693
01:19:54,612 --> 01:19:56,173
Speaker 2: he said he thinks it's the right thing to do.

1694
01:19:56,492 --> 01:19:58,852
Speaker 2: Do you think that's wrong, that there's not a moral

1695
01:19:58,933 --> 01:20:00,572
Speaker 2: reason to do it, to ban it?

1696
01:20:00,732 --> 01:20:04,532
Speaker 12: Well, I used to be a jockey and I wouldn't

1697
01:20:04,532 --> 01:20:07,732
Speaker 12: have tools and races horses have got injured and been

1698
01:20:07,853 --> 01:20:12,412
Speaker 12: put down. So what's the difference between people getting killed

1699
01:20:12,452 --> 01:20:14,732
Speaker 12: in the car and dogs getting killed down?

1700
01:20:14,853 --> 01:20:17,253
Speaker 3: Well, just from my point of view, Bill, is that

1701
01:20:17,532 --> 01:20:19,293
Speaker 3: the dogs don't have a choice in the matter, that

1702
01:20:19,333 --> 01:20:22,293
Speaker 3: they're racing for entertainment and look some in the industry

1703
01:20:22,333 --> 01:20:25,372
Speaker 3: would argue that they're very well looked after. Winston Peters

1704
01:20:25,412 --> 01:20:28,812
Speaker 3: doesn't think that's the case all the time. And I think,

1705
01:20:29,133 --> 01:20:31,452
Speaker 3: just going on what he said to reporters and in

1706
01:20:31,532 --> 01:20:34,013
Speaker 3: the press release, he made it quite clear that the

1707
01:20:34,093 --> 01:20:36,812
Speaker 3: greyhound industry was given a warning that things weren't up

1708
01:20:36,853 --> 01:20:40,293
Speaker 3: to scratch and unless they do better, then some changes

1709
01:20:40,293 --> 01:20:43,052
Speaker 3: are going to happen, and unfortunately they haven't seen those changes,

1710
01:20:43,253 --> 01:20:45,852
Speaker 3: which is different to horse racing. Right as your no Bill,

1711
01:20:45,973 --> 01:20:49,093
Speaker 3: there was some welfare changes asked of the horse racing

1712
01:20:49,173 --> 01:20:51,612
Speaker 3: industry and they did that, and the horse racing industry

1713
01:20:51,652 --> 01:20:52,213
Speaker 3: will be safe.

1714
01:20:53,452 --> 01:20:56,652
Speaker 27: Yeah, but like a lot of the tracks now, like

1715
01:20:56,732 --> 01:21:00,333
Speaker 27: well they've got what they call a straight straight tracks say,

1716
01:21:00,372 --> 01:21:02,732
Speaker 27: they're not running into each other and knocking each other over.

1717
01:21:03,492 --> 01:21:05,652
Speaker 27: But we're still allowed to get out on the road

1718
01:21:05,692 --> 01:21:10,772
Speaker 27: and somebody hit us all my appamily. Nothing's done about that?

1719
01:21:12,572 --> 01:21:14,852
Speaker 2: Well sorry, sorry, did you say that that that has

1720
01:21:14,933 --> 01:21:16,012
Speaker 2: happened or it could happen.

1721
01:21:16,893 --> 01:21:17,892
Speaker 12: No, it does happen.

1722
01:21:18,053 --> 01:21:21,812
Speaker 2: Yeah, it does happen. Yeah, And that's a fair point, Bill,

1723
01:21:21,893 --> 01:21:24,293
Speaker 2: because you say that the greyhounds don't have a choice,

1724
01:21:24,333 --> 01:21:26,732
Speaker 2: that the people that get hit by someone crossing the

1725
01:21:26,772 --> 01:21:28,412
Speaker 2: other side of the road don't have a choice, do

1726
01:21:28,452 --> 01:21:28,772
Speaker 2: they either?

1727
01:21:29,652 --> 01:21:29,812
Speaker 8: Right?

1728
01:21:30,133 --> 01:21:32,892
Speaker 2: Yeah, And it will be interesting because because you say

1729
01:21:32,973 --> 01:21:36,093
Speaker 2: that the horse racing is safe now, but do you

1730
01:21:36,133 --> 01:21:37,732
Speaker 2: think that that's going to be the case that the

1731
01:21:37,812 --> 01:21:41,412
Speaker 2: people that have campaigned for greyhound racing to go down?

1732
01:21:41,412 --> 01:21:43,692
Speaker 2: I know the Green Party have been very vocal in

1733
01:21:43,772 --> 01:21:47,053
Speaker 2: their their they're dislike of greyhound racing. Do you think

1734
01:21:47,053 --> 01:21:49,053
Speaker 2: they're going to stop and feel that that's enough, that

1735
01:21:49,093 --> 01:21:50,732
Speaker 2: they've gone far enough, or do you think they're going

1736
01:21:50,772 --> 01:21:52,053
Speaker 2: to go for the horse racing next.

1737
01:21:52,173 --> 01:21:54,013
Speaker 3: That's a good question. I'm sure the Green party will

1738
01:21:54,013 --> 01:21:55,932
Speaker 3: go for the horse racing industry. But I don't think

1739
01:21:56,093 --> 01:21:58,452
Speaker 3: was Winston Peters as Minister of Racing. I mean, there'd

1740
01:21:58,492 --> 01:22:00,213
Speaker 3: be no more that job would be gone for him,

1741
01:22:00,213 --> 01:22:02,133
Speaker 3: wouldn't it if he got rid of the horses. But

1742
01:22:02,253 --> 01:22:04,293
Speaker 3: I generally think and look, there's there's people who are

1743
01:22:04,333 --> 01:22:06,213
Speaker 3: in the industry that know far more than I do

1744
01:22:06,293 --> 01:22:08,892
Speaker 3: about this situation. But as I understand it, the horse

1745
01:22:08,973 --> 01:22:11,372
Speaker 3: racing industry was given a warning and a serve to

1746
01:22:11,412 --> 01:22:13,372
Speaker 3: say that you need to up your game with how

1747
01:22:13,452 --> 01:22:15,892
Speaker 3: often you use the whips, how you look after the horses.

1748
01:22:15,933 --> 01:22:18,732
Speaker 3: They did all of those things. The greyhound industry were

1749
01:22:18,772 --> 01:22:21,452
Speaker 3: told to do the same thing, and they didn't. So

1750
01:22:21,692 --> 01:22:24,213
Speaker 3: that is why we're now facing a band of the

1751
01:22:24,253 --> 01:22:26,972
Speaker 3: greyhound industry. That is my understanding of it. And that's

1752
01:22:26,973 --> 01:22:29,492
Speaker 3: fair enough. If you were told as an industry as

1753
01:22:29,492 --> 01:22:32,213
Speaker 3: a whole that there's far too many dogs that have

1754
01:22:32,293 --> 01:22:34,532
Speaker 3: been caught, they.

1755
01:22:35,772 --> 01:22:36,852
Speaker 2: Did a bit to sort it out.

1756
01:22:37,133 --> 01:22:38,973
Speaker 3: Yeah, now, no, that's fair And this would be a

1757
01:22:39,053 --> 01:22:41,932
Speaker 3: case of a few bad apples that didn't play play

1758
01:22:42,173 --> 01:22:43,732
Speaker 3: the game and now have ruined it.

1759
01:22:43,732 --> 01:22:44,053
Speaker 13: For the whole.

1760
01:22:44,253 --> 01:22:46,492
Speaker 2: I think it's a case of when he throwing the

1761
01:22:46,652 --> 01:22:53,492
Speaker 2: dogs like meat, to plicate the rabid animal safety people

1762
01:22:53,692 --> 01:22:57,052
Speaker 2: to protect the ponies. So he because he loves the horse,

1763
01:22:57,173 --> 01:23:00,093
Speaker 2: he loves the horse racing, right, yeah, So he goes, well,

1764
01:23:00,093 --> 01:23:01,772
Speaker 2: look this is there's a lot of pressure around here.

1765
01:23:01,853 --> 01:23:04,293
Speaker 2: There's a lot going on. If I just throw the

1766
01:23:04,333 --> 01:23:09,492
Speaker 2: greyhounds under a bus, then then that'll keep keep certain

1767
01:23:09,492 --> 01:23:11,293
Speaker 2: people at a bay bay so we can keep the

1768
01:23:11,372 --> 01:23:11,932
Speaker 2: horses going.

1769
01:23:12,173 --> 01:23:12,972
Speaker 3: Not a bad strategy.

1770
01:23:14,013 --> 01:23:15,973
Speaker 2: Could there's wild speculation from me, but it could be

1771
01:23:16,013 --> 01:23:18,173
Speaker 2: the case. Hey, thank you so much for you call Bill.

1772
01:23:18,772 --> 01:23:21,612
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it is an interesting one, isn't it.

1773
01:23:21,732 --> 01:23:25,052
Speaker 3: That I know there's a lot of fans of racing

1774
01:23:25,213 --> 01:23:27,093
Speaker 3: as a whole and in the industry. And look, I've

1775
01:23:27,093 --> 01:23:30,012
Speaker 3: got some friends who primarily they're in the horse racing industry,

1776
01:23:30,173 --> 01:23:32,173
Speaker 3: but they are pretty hot on greyhounds that the people

1777
01:23:32,253 --> 01:23:35,652
Speaker 3: they know who operate the greyhounds love those dogs like

1778
01:23:35,772 --> 01:23:38,852
Speaker 3: family members. So for those people in this industry that

1779
01:23:39,013 --> 01:23:43,852
Speaker 3: see that, you know that professionalism and greyhound racing and

1780
01:23:44,013 --> 01:23:45,852
Speaker 3: then to have the whole lot banned because there are

1781
01:23:45,933 --> 01:23:48,932
Speaker 3: some bad apples in this industry, I can keep why

1782
01:23:49,013 --> 01:23:51,692
Speaker 3: people would be pretty aggrieved by that. A few ticks

1783
01:23:51,732 --> 01:23:52,932
Speaker 3: coming through on this one as well.

1784
01:23:53,093 --> 01:23:56,492
Speaker 2: How many dogs do the SPCA euthanize comparing to the

1785
01:23:56,572 --> 01:24:01,412
Speaker 2: figures you just mentioned. Crazy, let's ban the horses too. Yeah,

1786
01:24:01,853 --> 01:24:05,053
Speaker 2: So I mean that's a bit of a tough one

1787
01:24:05,053 --> 01:24:07,492
Speaker 2: in the SPCA because they don't want to euthanize any dogs.

1788
01:24:07,652 --> 01:24:10,013
Speaker 3: Yeah, and as far as I know, because I mean

1789
01:24:10,053 --> 01:24:12,213
Speaker 3: this was the case eighteen months ago, and I'm sure

1790
01:24:12,293 --> 01:24:15,053
Speaker 3: nothing's changed that. The SPCA is often asked about the

1791
01:24:15,133 --> 01:24:18,093
Speaker 3: racing industry, and from an EASTPCA point of view is

1792
01:24:18,253 --> 01:24:22,412
Speaker 3: that they are far more okay with the horse racing

1793
01:24:22,452 --> 01:24:25,612
Speaker 3: industry because of those changes made around the whips being used.

1794
01:24:25,612 --> 01:24:27,732
Speaker 3: They've never been okay with the greyhound industry.

1795
01:24:28,213 --> 01:24:33,253
Speaker 2: To that, Gentleman's points says, this text about cars, dangers, driving, speeding, drink,

1796
01:24:33,333 --> 01:24:36,293
Speaker 2: driving while using your phone are all banned and this

1797
01:24:36,452 --> 01:24:39,852
Speaker 2: is what killed people. Yeah. What I'd be interested about

1798
01:24:39,853 --> 01:24:42,733
Speaker 2: this whole greyhound issue is what happens to these greyhounds

1799
01:24:42,772 --> 01:24:45,572
Speaker 2: as well, which is the side issue. So they're going

1800
01:24:45,612 --> 01:24:47,572
Speaker 2: to bring a new legislation I understand to say that

1801
01:24:47,692 --> 01:24:51,732
Speaker 2: these these dogs, now that they don't have active employent employment,

1802
01:24:52,772 --> 01:24:56,412
Speaker 2: can't just be euthanase. So they have to find houses

1803
01:24:56,492 --> 01:24:58,372
Speaker 2: for how many is it two and a half three thousand?

1804
01:24:58,492 --> 01:25:00,093
Speaker 2: I'm not sure. I think I think the numbers around

1805
01:25:00,093 --> 01:25:02,372
Speaker 2: two and a half thousand dogs in the industry and.

1806
01:25:02,452 --> 01:25:04,253
Speaker 3: Usually two eight hundred was the numbers.

1807
01:25:04,293 --> 01:25:06,972
Speaker 2: I so that's a lot of two eight hundred dogs

1808
01:25:07,812 --> 01:25:09,652
Speaker 2: they have to find and a home for them. Yeah,

1809
01:25:09,933 --> 01:25:12,732
Speaker 2: when you know the SPCA aforementioned to trying to find

1810
01:25:12,772 --> 01:25:16,213
Speaker 2: homes for a lot of dogs already. And what are

1811
01:25:16,253 --> 01:25:20,572
Speaker 2: greyhound's like as X races like dogs. I mean, my

1812
01:25:20,692 --> 01:25:22,852
Speaker 2: only knowledge in this area is from the Simpsons and

1813
01:25:23,053 --> 01:25:23,852
Speaker 2: sends Little.

1814
01:25:23,652 --> 01:25:26,372
Speaker 3: Helper, great dog, good dog, very very wow.

1815
01:25:26,492 --> 01:25:29,173
Speaker 2: Has his problems actually, to be fair, but you know

1816
01:25:29,333 --> 01:25:32,053
Speaker 2: that doesn't really add much to the conversation. But yeah,

1817
01:25:32,093 --> 01:25:34,892
Speaker 2: what's what's the deal with finding a place for two

1818
01:25:34,933 --> 01:25:37,013
Speaker 2: thy eight hundred greyhounds? I mean, it would be a

1819
01:25:37,053 --> 01:25:39,372
Speaker 2: pretty interesting situation where they end up having to euthanase

1820
01:25:39,412 --> 01:25:42,053
Speaker 2: a bunch to them just to supposedly save them.

1821
01:25:42,133 --> 01:25:44,692
Speaker 3: It's going to be really difficult rehoming those greyhounds. We've

1822
01:25:44,732 --> 01:25:46,892
Speaker 3: got a greyhound cross. She's never been a racing dog,

1823
01:25:47,652 --> 01:25:50,532
Speaker 3: but because the fact that she's part greyhound, had a

1824
01:25:50,652 --> 01:25:53,932
Speaker 3: lot of chat to to owners of former racing dogs,

1825
01:25:54,133 --> 01:25:56,293
Speaker 3: and they say it is particularly difficult because you can't

1826
01:25:56,333 --> 01:25:58,652
Speaker 3: have them around small dogs. They think it's the punny

1827
01:25:58,692 --> 01:26:00,772
Speaker 3: and they try and chase that, particularly the white dogs,

1828
01:26:00,933 --> 01:26:03,532
Speaker 3: so they are quite difficult to rehome. But yeah, right,

1829
01:26:03,692 --> 01:26:06,492
Speaker 3: if you have rehomed a former racing greyhound, love to

1830
01:26:06,532 --> 01:26:09,852
Speaker 3: hear from your nine hundred eighty to ten eighty. It

1831
01:26:10,213 --> 01:26:12,293
Speaker 3: is plenty of texts coming through on nine two ninety

1832
01:26:12,293 --> 01:26:17,492
Speaker 3: two as well. It is fourteen pasts three seventeen past three. Well,

1833
01:26:17,492 --> 01:26:20,253
Speaker 3: we've got into a discussion about the ban on greyhound

1834
01:26:20,372 --> 01:26:21,733
Speaker 3: racing in New Zealand's.

1835
01:26:21,492 --> 01:26:24,052
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's coming in in twenty months. I believe Whinston

1836
01:26:24,053 --> 01:26:27,772
Speaker 2: Peter's announced it today. Lots of texts coming through and

1837
01:26:27,893 --> 01:26:29,852
Speaker 2: full lines on eight hundred and eighty ten eighty. But

1838
01:26:30,692 --> 01:26:32,492
Speaker 2: still give us a ring because we'll find a place

1839
01:26:32,532 --> 01:26:36,093
Speaker 2: for you. Bugger that guy Bill as someone who sees

1840
01:26:36,173 --> 01:26:38,972
Speaker 2: they're behind the scenes of greyhound racing, it is bloody rough.

1841
01:26:39,053 --> 01:26:41,812
Speaker 2: The conditions that these dogs are kept in is just awful,

1842
01:26:41,853 --> 01:26:43,772
Speaker 2: and the dogs flinch when you go to pat them

1843
01:26:44,013 --> 01:26:46,532
Speaker 2: as the breeders abuse them. According to this text, the

1844
01:26:46,652 --> 01:26:48,492
Speaker 2: best news I've heard in a while as the whole

1845
01:26:48,532 --> 01:26:50,972
Speaker 2: industry is crup behind the scenes. There is also plenty

1846
01:26:51,013 --> 01:26:53,932
Speaker 2: of rehoming facilities around the country too. For your information,

1847
01:26:54,053 --> 01:26:55,253
Speaker 2: there you go. Thank you for that text.

1848
01:26:55,412 --> 01:26:57,652
Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you very much. And if you're in the industry,

1849
01:26:57,853 --> 01:26:59,652
Speaker 3: love to hear from you. Why is there a big

1850
01:26:59,692 --> 01:27:03,772
Speaker 3: difference between supposedly greyhounds and horse racing. If you're in

1851
01:27:04,213 --> 01:27:05,612
Speaker 3: the industry, give us a buzz.

1852
01:27:05,812 --> 01:27:08,692
Speaker 2: Yeah, someone here says, is Winston actually covering up for

1853
01:27:08,812 --> 01:27:13,213
Speaker 2: creating a monopoly for the tab with the entained deal?

1854
01:27:13,652 --> 01:27:17,692
Speaker 2: H interesting, spicy, spicy conspiracy theory coming through that.

1855
01:27:17,893 --> 01:27:19,612
Speaker 3: We had some good shod on that yesterday, didn't we.

1856
01:27:20,093 --> 01:27:23,213
Speaker 3: But Dean, you're a punter, yeah, mate.

1857
01:27:23,293 --> 01:27:27,772
Speaker 14: But my point about the dogs is this. You know,

1858
01:27:27,812 --> 01:27:29,692
Speaker 14: you've got all these people saying that we want the

1859
01:27:29,732 --> 01:27:31,333
Speaker 14: welfare of the dogs and all the rest of it,

1860
01:27:31,412 --> 01:27:33,732
Speaker 14: but they haven't taken into account, as you just did

1861
01:27:33,812 --> 01:27:37,652
Speaker 14: this before, that hundreds of dogs are breed every year

1862
01:27:37,772 --> 01:27:41,372
Speaker 14: for racing. You've been it. All of that doesn't happen anymore,

1863
01:27:41,452 --> 01:27:43,892
Speaker 14: so no more dogs getting breeds for racing. So you're

1864
01:27:43,933 --> 01:27:47,692
Speaker 14: wiping out hundreds of thousands of not thousands of dogs.

1865
01:27:47,772 --> 01:27:52,452
Speaker 14: Would you say you love also all the dogs that

1866
01:27:52,532 --> 01:27:54,333
Speaker 14: are racing. Now, if you think you're going to home

1867
01:27:54,372 --> 01:27:56,972
Speaker 14: all them, you're dreaming. Quite a few of them will

1868
01:27:57,013 --> 01:28:00,772
Speaker 14: have to be put down. And you love dogs. So look,

1869
01:28:00,772 --> 01:28:02,892
Speaker 14: as far as I can see, it's it's a nonsense.

1870
01:28:02,933 --> 01:28:05,252
Speaker 14: There's all the people that are employed in this industry.

1871
01:28:05,893 --> 01:28:09,692
Speaker 14: There's the trainers, the that people who make the food,

1872
01:28:09,853 --> 01:28:12,732
Speaker 14: that people who take it there, the tracks, the staff

1873
01:28:12,812 --> 01:28:15,732
Speaker 14: that is a whole heap of staff as well. So

1874
01:28:16,452 --> 01:28:19,452
Speaker 14: all I see, there's a no brainer. If I watched them,

1875
01:28:19,532 --> 01:28:22,412
Speaker 14: my punt them. They love going to the races, those

1876
01:28:22,492 --> 01:28:24,932
Speaker 14: things they chase their thing, well, there's no tomorrow. They jump,

1877
01:28:24,973 --> 01:28:26,732
Speaker 14: numb them down, they can't wait to get in there.

1878
01:28:27,372 --> 01:28:30,532
Speaker 14: And I've been involved in some people who owned them,

1879
01:28:30,772 --> 01:28:33,213
Speaker 14: who own them and they treat them like gold. So

1880
01:28:33,333 --> 01:28:35,013
Speaker 14: I don't know about where these other people get that

1881
01:28:35,093 --> 01:28:38,532
Speaker 14: information from. Because the ones I see get petters and groom,

1882
01:28:38,612 --> 01:28:42,452
Speaker 14: the best food everything. So there's you know, I don't know.

1883
01:28:42,532 --> 01:28:43,732
Speaker 14: I totally disagree with it.

1884
01:28:45,732 --> 01:28:49,492
Speaker 2: Now, Dean with with with what is it about greyhound

1885
01:28:49,572 --> 01:28:55,012
Speaker 2: racing that you prefer in terms of as a punter, Well.

1886
01:28:54,893 --> 01:28:57,692
Speaker 14: I don't prefer it, but I enjoy I enjoy it

1887
01:28:57,692 --> 01:29:01,492
Speaker 14: because it's to me, it's fast and it's quick, and

1888
01:29:01,612 --> 01:29:03,933
Speaker 14: it's reasonably harmless or so I don't stop. But I

1889
01:29:04,013 --> 01:29:08,173
Speaker 14: don't see it as an issue at all. I like

1890
01:29:08,372 --> 01:29:10,572
Speaker 14: watching it, Yeah, because I like watching the dogs because

1891
01:29:10,572 --> 01:29:11,253
Speaker 14: I like dogs.

1892
01:29:11,893 --> 01:29:14,133
Speaker 2: Okay, cool, Well, thank you so much for you cool Dean,

1893
01:29:14,213 --> 01:29:14,972
Speaker 2: thanks for your input.

1894
01:29:15,133 --> 01:29:18,293
Speaker 3: Yep, thank you very much. Sarah. How are you You've

1895
01:29:18,333 --> 01:29:20,933
Speaker 3: adopted many x rasing greyhounds.

1896
01:29:22,133 --> 01:29:22,293
Speaker 8: Hi.

1897
01:29:22,652 --> 01:29:26,492
Speaker 32: Yes, I've actually just helped my first greyhounds yesterday.

1898
01:29:26,853 --> 01:29:27,053
Speaker 2: Wow.

1899
01:29:27,173 --> 01:29:30,932
Speaker 32: I've currently got two, and I just want to say

1900
01:29:31,013 --> 01:29:33,732
Speaker 32: they have been most amazing pets. And it worries me

1901
01:29:33,973 --> 01:29:36,452
Speaker 32: that so many of them take a long time to

1902
01:29:36,532 --> 01:29:40,173
Speaker 32: find home. So I worried that with the band, they'll

1903
01:29:40,213 --> 01:29:43,893
Speaker 32: be flooded with dogs that can't find homes. And so

1904
01:29:44,293 --> 01:29:47,692
Speaker 32: from my perspective, the dogs that I've had, five of them, wow,

1905
01:29:48,372 --> 01:29:51,732
Speaker 32: have all been well treated, the lovely pets. Some of

1906
01:29:51,772 --> 01:29:53,892
Speaker 32: them are shy that they've all been some of them

1907
01:29:53,973 --> 01:29:56,492
Speaker 32: have just been such people dogs, but they've clearly been

1908
01:29:56,572 --> 01:30:00,293
Speaker 32: treated really well. Some of my greyhounds have raised and

1909
01:30:00,412 --> 01:30:04,133
Speaker 32: won twenty thousand dollars. Others of my second most recent

1910
01:30:04,213 --> 01:30:08,013
Speaker 32: adopted greyhounds was unraced because she didn't want to do it.

1911
01:30:08,372 --> 01:30:11,052
Speaker 32: Lady retired her at one years and you know, never

1912
01:30:11,133 --> 01:30:14,852
Speaker 32: even got to trial, so they spade her and didn't

1913
01:30:14,893 --> 01:30:17,812
Speaker 32: even try trialing her. So I got her quite young.

1914
01:30:19,013 --> 01:30:21,532
Speaker 32: I also work as a vetnory physio, and I work

1915
01:30:21,612 --> 01:30:25,053
Speaker 32: both in the small animal and the equine world. So

1916
01:30:25,173 --> 01:30:27,732
Speaker 32: I walked to a lot of race horses and some

1917
01:30:28,532 --> 01:30:32,133
Speaker 32: race and grace excuse me, race and greyhounds. So I

1918
01:30:32,213 --> 01:30:34,652
Speaker 32: guess I see it from this perspective that if people

1919
01:30:34,732 --> 01:30:36,892
Speaker 32: want me to do for the old their dogs or horses,

1920
01:30:36,973 --> 01:30:40,333
Speaker 32: they really value them. But the people I've met in

1921
01:30:40,412 --> 01:30:45,132
Speaker 32: the industry absolutely love their animals, and so the greyhound trainers,

1922
01:30:45,372 --> 01:30:47,852
Speaker 32: which we're obviously talking about, so they I've had dozens

1923
01:30:47,893 --> 01:30:50,213
Speaker 32: of messages from friends and clients telling me about you

1924
01:30:50,253 --> 01:30:52,492
Speaker 32: guys talking about it on the radio and news.

1925
01:30:53,333 --> 01:30:58,652
Speaker 3: But the greyhounds, Oh, well, we're just losing you there.

1926
01:30:58,772 --> 01:31:00,772
Speaker 3: Sarah just stepped to the left or right, and hopefully

1927
01:31:00,812 --> 01:31:03,572
Speaker 3: we get you back. In fact, just told they're we're

1929
01:31:06,612 --> 01:31:07,572
Speaker 3: Sarah very shortly.

1930
01:31:07,612 --> 01:31:09,572
Speaker 2: Because of a lot of questions for you that's interesting,

1931
01:31:09,652 --> 01:31:11,612
Speaker 2: Cal thank you for that. Hopefully we can get Sarah.

1932

Speaker 1: eighty ten eighty on News Talk ZV.

1937
01:31:28,333 --> 01:31:30,772
Speaker 2: So we've got Sarah back to talk about greyhounds. Of course,

1938
01:31:31,013 --> 01:31:33,452
Speaker 2: Winston Peters has announced that greyhound racing is going to

1939
01:31:33,452 --> 01:31:36,532
Speaker 2: be banned in New Zealand in twenty months. Sarah, So

1940
01:31:36,612 --> 01:31:41,612
Speaker 2: you've adopted five X racing greyhounds are you? How did

1941
01:31:41,652 --> 01:31:44,692
Speaker 2: you start adopting X racing greyhounds?

1942
01:31:45,532 --> 01:31:45,652
Speaker 22: Oh?

1943
01:31:45,732 --> 01:31:48,812
Speaker 24: Well, I've been working in the UK and I shared

1944
01:31:48,812 --> 01:31:50,652
Speaker 24: a dog with my house note over there who was

1945
01:31:50,692 --> 01:31:53,933
Speaker 24: a lurcher and the dog not the house mate. And

1946
01:31:54,532 --> 01:31:56,932
Speaker 24: when I came back to New Zealand, I really wanted

1947
01:31:56,973 --> 01:31:59,972
Speaker 24: a lurcher, which is a greyhound cross and we could

1948
01:32:00,093 --> 01:32:02,372
Speaker 24: really get them here apart from more like the big

1949
01:32:02,412 --> 01:32:05,732
Speaker 24: dogs type breeds yep. And so I thought, well there's

1950
01:32:05,732 --> 01:32:08,452
Speaker 24: lots of greyhounds, it's racing greyhounds that need homes. In

1951
01:32:08,612 --> 01:32:12,133
Speaker 24: my first ex racing greyhound was one of the most

1952
01:32:12,173 --> 01:32:14,492
Speaker 24: amazing dogs I've ever had and had a massive impact

1953
01:32:14,692 --> 01:32:17,052
Speaker 24: on all the people that she met. Lots of people

1954
01:32:17,093 --> 01:32:21,133
Speaker 24: adopted greyhounds after meeting her, and she was a very

1955
01:32:21,173 --> 01:32:23,572
Speaker 24: successful racing dog. She raced for a couple of years.

1956
01:32:23,612 --> 01:32:26,293
Speaker 24: I think she went about twenty thousand. But you know,

1957
01:32:26,333 --> 01:32:30,213
Speaker 24: I've had her handler from the racers contact me. You know,

1958
01:32:30,293 --> 01:32:33,453
Speaker 24: I bumped into her trainer once, completely randomly, and immediately

1959
01:32:33,612 --> 01:32:36,333
Speaker 24: he said, oh, you've got our Princess Rosie. You know,

1960
01:32:36,412 --> 01:32:38,572
Speaker 24: how is she? I mean that was five years or

1961
01:32:38,612 --> 01:32:41,692
Speaker 24: so after I had adopted her. So that showed me

1962
01:32:41,893 --> 01:32:44,772
Speaker 24: the level of sort of depth of care that they

1963
01:32:44,893 --> 01:32:47,253
Speaker 24: had for their dogs. But I know in every industry

1964
01:32:47,333 --> 01:32:49,412
Speaker 24: there's always a mixed bag and there's always going to

1965
01:32:49,452 --> 01:32:52,293
Speaker 24: be bad apples. Like you were saying earlier, you know,

1966
01:32:52,612 --> 01:32:53,932
Speaker 24: with the last caller.

1967
01:32:54,412 --> 01:32:56,972
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, well I hope other people listen because there's

1968
01:32:57,013 --> 01:32:59,452
Speaker 2: a lot of greyhounds about to be needing houses. So

1969
01:32:59,532 --> 01:33:02,333
Speaker 2: it's good to get from me, Siah that that they

1970
01:33:02,412 --> 01:33:04,133
Speaker 2: can be great dogs to own.

1971
01:33:04,572 --> 01:33:06,932
Speaker 24: They're amazing, They're amazing, and I just think the first

1972
01:33:07,013 --> 01:33:09,692
Speaker 24: thing they should have done temp is limit the breeding

1973
01:33:09,973 --> 01:33:13,013
Speaker 24: numbers and try and get the population down and then

1974
01:33:13,093 --> 01:33:16,093
Speaker 24: phase it out. You know, I think that would have

1975
01:33:16,093 --> 01:33:18,372
Speaker 24: been a better approach, because that's my biggest concern is

1976
01:33:18,492 --> 01:33:21,572
Speaker 24: that there won't be enough homes. They already you know,

1977
01:33:21,772 --> 01:33:25,532
Speaker 24: there's already lots of greyhounds sitting and rehoming programs waiting

1978
01:33:25,652 --> 01:33:28,492
Speaker 24: months to be adopted, and then still dogs sitting with

1979
01:33:28,612 --> 01:33:31,732
Speaker 24: trainers that are retires that they can't get into the program.

1980
01:33:32,372 --> 01:33:33,812
Speaker 3: Do you need to read a bit of a backlog?

1981
01:33:33,933 --> 01:33:35,412
Speaker 3: Do you need to know what you're doing if you're

1982
01:33:35,933 --> 01:33:38,892
Speaker 3: looking to rehomer an ex racing greyhound. I just say

1983
01:33:38,893 --> 01:33:41,093
Speaker 3: that because I've heard them, and please myth Bustard if

1984
01:33:41,133 --> 01:33:43,692
Speaker 3: it is a myth that some of the racing dogs

1985
01:33:43,812 --> 01:33:47,892
Speaker 3: can be a bit diabolical around cats and around smaller dogs,

1986
01:33:47,893 --> 01:33:50,293
Speaker 3: because that's what they're trained to do, is chase those things.

1987
01:33:51,293 --> 01:33:51,492
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1988
01:33:51,532 --> 01:33:54,612
Speaker 24: So the great thing is the rehoming programs do assess

1989
01:33:54,692 --> 01:33:57,412
Speaker 24: each greyhound that comes through and they determine if they're

1990
01:33:57,452 --> 01:34:00,053
Speaker 24: suitable for rehoming, and then they'll give your heads up

1991
01:34:00,133 --> 01:34:03,452
Speaker 24: as to whether they're cat trainable or not. But I've

1992
01:34:03,492 --> 01:34:06,093
Speaker 24: trained all of my greyhounds to be fine with farminals

1993
01:34:06,133 --> 01:34:10,612
Speaker 24: I live. Really they're out with chicken. My first greyhound

1994
01:34:10,692 --> 01:34:14,612
Speaker 24: was fine with cats. My seconds too. I wouldn't have

1995
01:34:14,732 --> 01:34:17,612
Speaker 24: completely trusted them, but they were not too bad. But

1996
01:34:17,692 --> 01:34:20,412
Speaker 24: I never put them in that situation. And so my

1997
01:34:20,572 --> 01:34:23,532
Speaker 24: current greyhound have just adopted yesterday. It'll be a process

1998
01:34:23,572 --> 01:34:26,572
Speaker 24: of just getting her to be okay with my chickens.

1999
01:34:26,893 --> 01:34:28,532
Speaker 24: But I guess it's like most dogs. I mean, my

2000
01:34:28,652 --> 01:34:31,133
Speaker 24: parents have had a West Thailand white Terrian and she

2001
01:34:31,213 --> 01:34:33,412
Speaker 24: would have absolutely gone for a cash or a chicken

2002
01:34:33,772 --> 01:34:36,293
Speaker 24: have given half the chance. She just wasn't fast enough

2003
01:34:36,372 --> 01:34:38,732
Speaker 24: to catch them. And I guess that's the problem, is

2004
01:34:38,853 --> 01:34:42,412
Speaker 24: a greyhound is fast enough to catch match something, whereas

2005
01:34:42,652 --> 01:34:45,333
Speaker 24: many dog breeds will go to small animals such as

2006
01:34:45,532 --> 01:34:48,973
Speaker 24: rabbits or chickens or cats, but they just don't have

2007
01:34:49,133 --> 01:34:51,812
Speaker 24: that speed. But I think they do do a really

2008
01:34:51,853 --> 01:34:54,892
Speaker 24: great job of educating owners as to what it will take,

2009
01:34:55,053 --> 01:34:57,812
Speaker 24: you know, what they need to be considerate of, and

2010
01:34:57,933 --> 01:35:01,293
Speaker 24: they provide lots of help in support and resources for

2011
01:35:01,492 --> 01:35:05,372
Speaker 24: owners to do that. So yeah, I think they do

2012
01:35:05,452 --> 01:35:09,093
Speaker 24: a really good job of education and and making sure

2013
01:35:09,133 --> 01:35:10,893
Speaker 24: that the greyhounds get to the right homes and the

2014
01:35:11,013 --> 01:35:12,012
Speaker 24: owners have support.

2015
01:35:12,412 --> 01:35:14,093
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, my dog Colin crossed the road to get

2016
01:35:14,093 --> 01:35:16,732
Speaker 2: away from two cats the other day, so he's in

2017
01:35:16,772 --> 01:35:20,492
Speaker 2: no danger of catching anything. He's got stumpy little legs. Now, Now,

2018
01:35:20,572 --> 01:35:24,013
Speaker 2: Sarah with greyhounds, So do you think that you know,

2019
01:35:24,093 --> 01:35:26,973
Speaker 2: you love these greyhounds and in your experience there have

2020
01:35:27,253 --> 01:35:29,333
Speaker 2: been you know that the trainers that you've dealt with

2021
01:35:29,452 --> 01:35:33,532
Speaker 2: to get your greyhounds have been have been really nice

2022
01:35:33,572 --> 01:35:35,412
Speaker 2: to their dogs. You know, you thought they've treated them well.

2023
01:35:35,933 --> 01:35:37,852
Speaker 2: But in the most recent twenty to twenty three to

2024
01:35:37,933 --> 01:35:40,852
Speaker 2: twenty four season greyhound racing, New Zealand's Animal Welfare Reports

2025
01:35:40,853 --> 01:35:43,652
Speaker 2: said nine dogs were euthanased because of injuries suffered during

2026
01:35:43,692 --> 01:35:46,412
Speaker 2: a race. From seven the season before, two hundred and

2027
01:35:46,412 --> 01:35:48,692
Speaker 2: twenty four dogs suffered serious injuries and a further six

2028
01:35:48,812 --> 01:35:52,093
Speaker 2: hundred and seventy two had injuries classified as minor or

2029
01:35:52,213 --> 01:35:55,053
Speaker 2: medium in the past season. So, as much as you

2030
01:35:55,173 --> 01:35:57,572
Speaker 2: love the dogs and as much as they care about

2031
01:35:57,612 --> 01:36:00,532
Speaker 2: the dogs, does it worry you at all the amount

2032
01:36:00,572 --> 01:36:03,852
Speaker 2: of injuries that happen in greyhound racing? And if it does,

2033
01:36:04,333 --> 01:36:07,253
Speaker 2: are you are you sad that the industry is being

2034
01:36:07,253 --> 01:36:07,732
Speaker 2: shut down?

2035
01:36:09,013 --> 01:36:12,972
Speaker 24: I really mixed feelings actually a bit of both, because

2036
01:36:12,973 --> 01:36:14,612
Speaker 24: I really do love the dogs and I and also

2037
01:36:14,772 --> 01:36:17,732
Speaker 24: they do love to run, that's for sure. But I

2038
01:36:17,853 --> 01:36:21,053
Speaker 24: think there's a lot that we could have done. I'm

2039
01:36:21,133 --> 01:36:22,652
Speaker 24: not directly in the industry, but I think there's a

2040
01:36:22,652 --> 01:36:25,412
Speaker 24: lot the industry could have done to help limit the

2041
01:36:26,253 --> 01:36:28,372
Speaker 24: the injuries. I know they have implemented some of it,

2042
01:36:28,492 --> 01:36:31,452
Speaker 24: but you know, track design and where you know, with

2043
01:36:31,772 --> 01:36:34,293
Speaker 24: with horse racing, you know, track design plays a big.

2044
01:36:34,532 --> 01:36:36,452
Speaker 28: Part in America.

2045
01:36:36,532 --> 01:36:38,852
Speaker 24: On with dirt racing, you know, there's a higher incidence

2046
01:36:38,893 --> 01:36:42,412
Speaker 24: of injuries and thoroughbreds compared to on the turf, So

2047
01:36:42,652 --> 01:36:45,333
Speaker 24: you know, corner you know, the corner angles, the canber,

2048
01:36:45,612 --> 01:36:49,173
Speaker 24: all of those things. So you know, I think they're

2049
01:36:49,173 --> 01:36:52,812
Speaker 24: probably that there's probably some lost opportunities there. But I

2050
01:36:53,293 --> 01:36:56,333
Speaker 24: absolutely am not comfortable with, you know, animals being injured

2051
01:36:56,853 --> 01:37:00,053
Speaker 24: in sport. And I would have been happy to have

2052
01:37:00,133 --> 01:37:02,572
Speaker 24: also taken on a dog that had had an injury.

2053
01:37:02,732 --> 01:37:03,452
Speaker 8: I actually was.

2054
01:37:03,893 --> 01:37:06,093
Speaker 24: I offered to take a dog that had quite a

2055
01:37:06,093 --> 01:37:10,173
Speaker 24: significant racing injury. That didn't work out, unfortunately, but I

2056
01:37:10,333 --> 01:37:12,612
Speaker 24: was certainly willing to open my home to, you know,

2057
01:37:12,732 --> 01:37:15,213
Speaker 24: to an X racing greyhound that had a racing injury.

2058
01:37:15,973 --> 01:37:18,572
Speaker 2: Yeah, because I've heard people talking about the idea of

2059
01:37:18,692 --> 01:37:21,452
Speaker 2: just straight greyhound racing, so it's just in a straight line,

2060
01:37:21,492 --> 01:37:23,732
Speaker 2: because a lot of the injuries come with the corner.

2061
01:37:23,853 --> 01:37:26,492
Speaker 24: Yes, on the corners. Yeah, that could have made a

2062
01:37:26,572 --> 01:37:29,492
Speaker 24: huge difference potentially, but I guess it's a little harder.

2063
01:37:29,612 --> 01:37:31,772
Speaker 24: Was trying to film it, and I don't know what

2064
01:37:31,853 --> 01:37:36,293
Speaker 24: the limitations are. Maybe it's space or using existing space. Certainly,

2065
01:37:36,853 --> 01:37:40,053
Speaker 24: from what I've seen, the majority of the injuries and incidents,

2066
01:37:40,452 --> 01:37:42,652
Speaker 24: and sometimes there's plenty of incidents, but they don't always

2067
01:37:42,692 --> 01:37:46,213
Speaker 24: come off with injuries, but it is often on those corners,

2068
01:37:46,253 --> 01:37:47,732
Speaker 24: and I guess they don't have a jockey on board

2069
01:37:47,772 --> 01:37:51,293
Speaker 24: to direct them. You know, they run how they want

2070
01:37:51,293 --> 01:37:52,532
Speaker 24: to run and where they want to run.

2071
01:37:53,652 --> 01:37:53,852
Speaker 29: Yeah.

2072
01:37:54,013 --> 01:37:58,133
Speaker 2: So, Sarah, a tough one you've you've had. You just

2073
01:37:58,213 --> 01:38:02,052
Speaker 2: had got your fifth ex racing greyhound yesterday. There's about

2074
01:38:02,093 --> 01:38:04,893
Speaker 2: two thousand and eight hundred of them about to become available.

2075
01:38:05,853 --> 01:38:07,213
Speaker 2: Are you going to jump on another one or are

2076
01:38:07,213 --> 01:38:08,092
Speaker 2: you going to get your syst.

2077
01:38:08,333 --> 01:38:10,892
Speaker 24: I'll be buying a lot of ticket and then if

2078
01:38:10,933 --> 01:38:13,053
Speaker 24: I went, there'll be signs.

2079
01:38:14,173 --> 01:38:15,932
Speaker 2: Well, thank you so much for you call Sarah really

2080

Speaker 2: appreciate it.

2081

Speaker 3: Thank you very much. Oh one hundred and eighty ten

2082
01:38:18,933 --> 01:38:21,293
Speaker 3: eighty is the number to call critiques here. I've trained

2083
01:38:21,333 --> 01:38:24,852
Speaker 3: two greyhounds. Both have said on my couch they have

2084
01:38:25,133 --> 01:38:29,012
Speaker 3: very large kennels, easy as dogs to have at home.

2085
01:38:29,372 --> 01:38:31,372
Speaker 3: That's from Steve. Keep those tacks coming through on nine

Speaker 5: In a month, Jus talks.

2088
01:38:38,452 --> 01:38:42,132
Speaker 17: There'd be headlines with blue bubble taxis. It's no trouble

Speaker 17: been referred by the Speaker to the Privileges Committee for

2092
01:38:52,253 --> 01:38:55,692
Speaker 17: disorderly conduct. The Standing Orders Committee will look into the

2093
01:38:55,772 --> 01:38:59,492
Speaker 17: appropriateness of doing a huker in the house. The Racing

Speaker 3: Thank you very much. Rayleen. It is twenty five to four.

2110
01:40:02,293 --> 01:40:05,092
Speaker 2: So, as you've heard, Winston Peters announced that they're shutting

2111
01:40:05,173 --> 01:40:09,932
Speaker 2: down greyhound racing in New Zealand over concerns for animal welfare.

2112
01:40:10,333 --> 01:40:12,253
Speaker 2: I think it's got twenty months, am I right? Twenty

2113
01:40:12,293 --> 01:40:14,132
Speaker 2: months to wrap up the industry.

2114
01:40:14,213 --> 01:40:17,333
Speaker 3: Yep, correct, And they got to rehome twenty eight hundred greyhounds.

2115
01:40:17,812 --> 01:40:20,452
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, Sarah's taken five of them, so can you

2116
01:40:20,572 --> 01:40:23,412
Speaker 2: take five of them to your house. Let's get out

2117
01:40:23,452 --> 01:40:28,253
Speaker 2: of the phones. Steve, what's your opinion on this greyhound

2118
01:40:28,333 --> 01:40:28,852
Speaker 2: racing band?

2119
01:40:30,013 --> 01:40:30,213
Speaker 23: Yeah?

2120
01:40:30,853 --> 01:40:35,972
Speaker 26: Awesome call from Sarah. That was bloody, bloody excellent. I yeah,

2121
01:40:36,293 --> 01:40:39,812
Speaker 26: I think it's a like to me, a greyhound's a

2122
01:40:39,893 --> 01:40:43,213
Speaker 26: working dog, right, it does its job. It's bred to

2123
01:40:43,253 --> 01:40:46,492
Speaker 26: do a job, and running is that job just that

2124
01:40:46,652 --> 01:40:48,612
Speaker 26: happens that humans have made the money out of it

2125
01:40:48,692 --> 01:40:53,812
Speaker 26: to see which one passes first. You know, the greyhound

2126
01:40:53,853 --> 01:40:57,612
Speaker 26: in itself, he doesn't. He doesn't look to get hurt

2127
01:40:57,772 --> 01:40:59,932
Speaker 26: or anything like that. It's just one of those things

2128
01:41:00,013 --> 01:41:03,133
Speaker 26: that hey, it's doing his job. It's love, it's loving

2129
01:41:03,372 --> 01:41:05,732
Speaker 26: doing what it's job. I do agree with some of

2130
01:41:05,772 --> 01:41:07,852
Speaker 26: the trainers that you know, can be a bit dubious

2131
01:41:07,893 --> 01:41:09,772
Speaker 26: and then and in that fact, then yeah, you've got

2132
01:41:09,853 --> 01:41:12,412
Speaker 26: to come down on those guys. But if the dogs loved,

2133
01:41:12,772 --> 01:41:15,412
Speaker 26: it's a happy dog, it loves what it's doing, then

2134
01:41:15,492 --> 01:41:17,892
Speaker 26: I can't see any problem with, like, you know, having

2135
01:41:17,973 --> 01:41:21,012
Speaker 26: that dog not doing what it loves doing. And also,

2136
01:41:21,173 --> 01:41:22,612
Speaker 26: you know, if you want to go that far, then

2137
01:41:22,652 --> 01:41:25,492
Speaker 26: you look like farm dogs, you look at like pig

2138
01:41:25,572 --> 01:41:28,692
Speaker 26: hunting dogs. You know how many a farm dog just

2139
01:41:28,812 --> 01:41:31,692
Speaker 26: because there's no stats to stay so many farm dogs

2140
01:41:31,732 --> 01:41:35,052
Speaker 26: dyeing a farmer year, or so many hunting dogs dying,

2141
01:41:35,213 --> 01:41:37,213
Speaker 26: then they'll be going, oh my god, you can't take

2142
01:41:37,293 --> 01:41:39,372
Speaker 26: dogs pig hunting, but like they love.

2143
01:41:39,333 --> 01:41:40,173
Speaker 17: Doing what they're doing.

2144
01:41:40,253 --> 01:41:45,093
Speaker 2: You know, for example, Steve, police dogs, No one loves

2145
01:41:45,173 --> 01:41:47,772
Speaker 2: dog the dog more than a police trainer, a police

2146
01:41:47,853 --> 01:41:51,173
Speaker 2: dog trainer, or police dog wrangler, And yet they send

2147
01:41:51,173 --> 01:41:52,572
Speaker 2: their dogs off into harm's way.

2148
01:41:53,532 --> 01:41:53,932
Speaker 13: That's right.

2149
01:41:54,013 --> 01:41:58,253
Speaker 26: And if the dogs happy and being loved and doing

2150
01:41:58,333 --> 01:42:00,333
Speaker 26: what it loves doing, then I don't see what the

2151
01:42:00,732 --> 01:42:04,333
Speaker 26: issue is. You know, are working dogs are working dog

2152
01:42:04,412 --> 01:42:06,612
Speaker 26: and they're bred to do what they do, like you know, greyhounds.

2153
01:42:06,612 --> 01:42:09,213
Speaker 26: I'm my god, you can't see much like a freaking

2154
01:42:09,293 --> 01:42:12,253
Speaker 26: treat cheetah. You know, the bread to run and I

2155
01:42:12,412 --> 01:42:14,173
Speaker 26: thing is what they love doing, So let them do

2156
01:42:14,293 --> 01:42:14,772
Speaker 26: what they love.

2157
01:42:15,452 --> 01:42:18,933
Speaker 2: Yes, So nine dogs were euthanased because of injuries in

2158
01:42:19,173 --> 01:42:23,532
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty three twenty twenty four season, and two

2159
01:42:23,652 --> 01:42:27,012
Speaker 2: hundred and twenty four dogs suffered serious injuries, and further

2160
01:42:27,053 --> 01:42:30,092
Speaker 2: six hundred and seventy two had injuries classified as minor

2161
01:42:30,213 --> 01:42:32,572
Speaker 2: and medium. Is that is that too much for you?

2162
01:42:33,372 --> 01:42:35,732
Speaker 26: Steve will come come back to me with some farm

2163
01:42:35,772 --> 01:42:38,852
Speaker 26: statistics about farm dogs and then I'll compare. You can't

2164
01:42:38,933 --> 01:42:41,812
Speaker 26: just sort of say because of yess be doing that.

2165
01:42:41,973 --> 01:42:43,652
Speaker 26: You know what I mean, it's got to be we've

2166
01:42:43,692 --> 01:42:45,933
Speaker 26: got to throw a lot of things into the mix to.

2167
01:42:46,013 --> 01:42:50,532
Speaker 2: Make your decision and take take dogs pig dogs as well.

2168
01:42:51,372 --> 01:42:54,612
Speaker 26: Yeah mate, you know any working dog. You've got to

2169
01:42:54,853 --> 01:42:56,532
Speaker 26: you've got to look at all those stats to make

2170
01:42:56,572 --> 01:42:59,372
Speaker 26: a decision, not just pin point one, because if you're

2171
01:42:59,372 --> 01:43:01,293
Speaker 26: pinpointing one, well then you're going to have to look

2172
01:43:01,333 --> 01:43:02,652
Speaker 26: at all of them, you know what I mean. It's

2173
01:43:02,692 --> 01:43:06,892
Speaker 26: not it's not fair that an industry is being shut

2174
01:43:06,973 --> 01:43:09,532
Speaker 26: down because some people think, oh my god, the poor dogs.

2175
01:43:09,772 --> 01:43:11,492
Speaker 6: Yeah, but that dogs loving it.

2176
01:43:12,053 --> 01:43:15,253
Speaker 26: You know, if a dog dies, yeah, it's sad. You

2177
01:43:15,372 --> 01:43:16,452
Speaker 26: know my dogs have died.

2178
01:43:16,772 --> 01:43:18,133
Speaker 13: I've got bull my eyes out.

2179
01:43:18,173 --> 01:43:20,572
Speaker 26: But the thing is the dogs had a good life

2180
01:43:20,612 --> 01:43:23,093
Speaker 26: and it's I guess you can look at it. It's

2181
01:43:23,093 --> 01:43:25,812
Speaker 26: like Denny Hole and he died rotor racing. He died loved.

2182
01:43:25,812 --> 01:43:28,333
Speaker 26: What are you doing? Yeah, I mean, thinks a dog

2183
01:43:28,612 --> 01:43:31,652
Speaker 26: if he dies on the racetrack, it's it died loved

2184
01:43:31,692 --> 01:43:32,372
Speaker 26: what it was doing.

2185
01:43:32,692 --> 01:43:34,652
Speaker 2: Thank you so much for you call Steve. Here's another

2186
01:43:34,772 --> 01:43:36,333
Speaker 2: here's a text on nine two nine two on a

2187
01:43:36,412 --> 01:43:39,173
Speaker 2: similar vein. It's always heartbreaking to hear about instances of

2188
01:43:39,213 --> 01:43:42,173
Speaker 2: animalist treatment in sports, and those responsible should certainly be

2189
01:43:42,213 --> 01:43:45,293
Speaker 2: held accountable. However, it's important to remember that the vast

2190
01:43:45,412 --> 01:43:49,012
Speaker 2: majority of people working in the industry animals are deeply

2191
01:43:49,133 --> 01:43:51,652
Speaker 2: cherished and respected. For many, it's not just a job

2192
01:43:51,692 --> 01:43:54,253
Speaker 2: but a livelihood that revolves around ensuring the animals well

2193
01:43:54,293 --> 01:43:57,452
Speaker 2: bearing being. These animals often receive top tier care, with

2194
01:43:57,612 --> 01:44:00,372
Speaker 2: access to the best veterinary services, health management, grooming and

2195
01:44:00,452 --> 01:44:03,572
Speaker 2: equipment available. The love and care for these animals is evident,

2196
01:44:03,652 --> 01:44:06,293
Speaker 2: and the efforts made to ensure that they remain healthy

2197
01:44:06,333 --> 01:44:09,093
Speaker 2: and happy, often in an environment designed to keep them

2198
01:44:09,133 --> 01:44:11,013
Speaker 2: in peak condition. Of course, there will always be a

2199
01:44:11,093 --> 01:44:14,093
Speaker 2: few bad apples, but they are the exception, not the rule.

2200
01:44:15,013 --> 01:44:17,732
Speaker 3: And that's a fair point and a great text. But

2201
01:44:17,772 --> 01:44:20,173
Speaker 3: if that was the case, Winston Peters has long been

2202
01:44:20,213 --> 01:44:22,572
Speaker 3: a champion for the racing industry across the board, whether

2203
01:44:22,652 --> 01:44:26,852
Speaker 3: that's horses or dogs. He has been the Minister of racing.

2204
01:44:26,893 --> 01:44:28,333
Speaker 3: He's been the man for race and he loves it.

2205
01:44:28,412 --> 01:44:31,732
Speaker 3: He's off and down at the at the track having

2206
01:44:31,732 --> 01:44:32,253
Speaker 3: a week flutter.

2207
01:44:32,372 --> 01:44:34,812
Speaker 2: I've got a conspiracy theory here for you, Tyler. All right,

2208
01:44:35,612 --> 01:44:38,652
Speaker 2: Perhaps the man that loves the horse racing so much.

2209
01:44:39,812 --> 01:44:42,612
Speaker 2: Just perhaps I've got nothing to back this up, but

2210
01:44:42,732 --> 01:44:45,253
Speaker 2: perhaps the man that loves the horse racing so much

2211
01:44:45,893 --> 01:44:49,932
Speaker 2: doesn't love the competition for the dollar from the dish liquors.

2212
01:44:50,372 --> 01:44:53,012
Speaker 3: He's coming for your man. That's the Deputy Prime Minister.

2213
01:44:53,093 --> 01:44:57,412
Speaker 1: It is twenty to four, the issues that affect you

2214
01:44:57,772 --> 01:44:59,972
Speaker 1: and a bit of fun along the way. Matt Heath

2215
01:45:00,053 --> 01:45:04,452
Speaker 1: and Tyler Adams. Afternoons you for twenty twenty four, you talks, they'd.

2216
01:45:04,253 --> 01:45:06,452
Speaker 3: Be seventeen to four. We're talking about the banning of

2217
01:45:06,732 --> 01:45:10,333
Speaker 3: greyhoun racing over the knee twenty months. It has come

2218
01:45:10,372 --> 01:45:11,932
Speaker 3: as a shock to many in the industry.

2219
01:45:12,253 --> 01:45:14,732
Speaker 2: Yeah, and apparently they're finding out at the same time

2220
01:45:14,812 --> 01:45:16,933
Speaker 2: that Whenston Peters was announcing it to the public, there

2221
01:45:17,013 --> 01:45:18,532
Speaker 2: might be people in the industry. They're just finding out

2222
01:45:18,572 --> 01:45:21,492
Speaker 2: about it right now as we say it this text

2223
01:45:21,652 --> 01:45:23,612
Speaker 2: on nine two nine two. I'm guessing most good dogs

2224
01:45:23,652 --> 01:45:27,013
Speaker 2: will go to Australia. That's an interesting idea that it

2225
01:45:27,133 --> 01:45:32,053
Speaker 2: might not be that these greyhounds get adopted into households.

2226
01:45:32,333 --> 01:45:34,253
Speaker 2: They might go over to race in Australia after the

2227
01:45:34,333 --> 01:45:36,572
Speaker 2: dust settles. The New Zealand greyhound enthusiasts will go back

2228
01:45:36,572 --> 01:45:39,452
Speaker 2: to the nineteen seventies racing for sweepstakes on private courses,

2229
01:45:39,692 --> 01:45:41,692
Speaker 2: which will suit quite a few of these people. It

2230
01:45:41,812 --> 01:45:43,652
Speaker 2: was great fun back then. Perhaps we will build a

2231
01:45:43,652 --> 01:45:46,572
Speaker 2: few straight private tracks this time. Racing is in the

2232
01:45:46,612 --> 01:45:48,932
Speaker 2: blood of these people and the dogs. Please remember these

2233
01:45:48,933 --> 01:45:52,012
Speaker 2: animals run at forty miles per hour and accidents do happen.

2234
01:45:52,692 --> 01:45:55,612
Speaker 3: Good texts, Julie, how are you this afternoon?

2235
01:45:56,333 --> 01:45:56,492
Speaker 24: Good?

2236
01:45:56,572 --> 01:45:56,812
Speaker 33: Thank you.

2237
01:45:57,412 --> 01:45:58,213
Speaker 14: The USA.

2238
01:45:59,652 --> 01:46:04,052
Speaker 33: Out again a new Zealand wide program. It's called GAT,

2239
01:46:04,652 --> 01:46:10,053
Speaker 33: It's called Greyhound's Pitch YEP and they take as many

2240
01:46:10,133 --> 01:46:12,492
Speaker 33: greathounds as they can and keep them till they can

2241
01:46:12,572 --> 01:46:16,093
Speaker 33: rehome them, and often on a Sunday market. I mean

2242
01:46:16,452 --> 01:46:18,772
Speaker 33: on a Sunday they need a market at Rigson and

2243
01:46:18,893 --> 01:46:21,732
Speaker 33: they take the dogs there that are looking for homes,

2244
01:46:21,772 --> 01:46:25,732
Speaker 33: et cetera, et cetera. And they are absolutely beautiful dogs.

2245
01:46:26,372 --> 01:46:29,412
Speaker 33: I've got two dogs are really not greyhounds. But if

2246
01:46:29,853 --> 01:46:32,772
Speaker 33: I ever could have another one, I'd definitely go for

2247
01:46:32,893 --> 01:46:35,372
Speaker 33: a greyhound, but it would have to be kept friendly.

2248
01:46:36,173 --> 01:46:39,132
Speaker 2: Julie, how many of so? If with the greyhound industry

2249
01:46:39,173 --> 01:46:43,493
Speaker 2: shut down, there's two hundred two, eight hundred odd greyhounds

2250
01:46:43,532 --> 01:46:46,452
Speaker 2: that are going to be without a job. How many

2251
01:46:46,893 --> 01:46:49,013
Speaker 2: what's the capacity for gap? How many of those are

2252
01:46:49,013 --> 01:46:50,333
Speaker 2: they going to be able to take on, do you think?

2253
01:46:51,293 --> 01:46:53,612
Speaker 33: I don't really know, but I did hear that they

2254
01:46:53,692 --> 01:46:56,213
Speaker 33: said that they were going to send some over to

2255
01:46:56,293 --> 01:46:59,732
Speaker 33: Australia and hopefully they could get red homed over there,

2256
01:46:59,853 --> 01:47:02,293
Speaker 33: you know, as pets, not just as racing dogs.

2257
01:47:02,612 --> 01:47:02,852
Speaker 7: Yeah.

2258
01:47:03,772 --> 01:47:05,532
Speaker 3: I mean it is a big job though, isn't it, Julie.

2259
01:47:05,532 --> 01:47:07,572
Speaker 3: I'm just having to look at greyhounds as pets the

2260
01:47:07,692 --> 01:47:11,572
Speaker 3: website and there's a beautiful greyhound called Fred that's looking

2261
01:47:11,612 --> 01:47:14,012
Speaker 3: for a home at the moment. But adding another twenty

2262
01:47:14,133 --> 01:47:17,492
Speaker 3: eight hundred greyhounds to the mix, it's gonna take a

2263
01:47:17,572 --> 01:47:18,932
Speaker 3: lot to try and rehome them all.

2264
01:47:20,532 --> 01:47:23,213
Speaker 33: I'm sure. I'm sure once it got out there'd be

2265
01:47:23,253 --> 01:47:26,053
Speaker 33: plenty of people that would offer a dog a home.

2266
01:47:26,612 --> 01:47:29,253
Speaker 33: As I say, if I could have one, and I

2267
01:47:29,333 --> 01:47:31,532
Speaker 33: can't have more than two dogs, if I could have one,

2268
01:47:31,572 --> 01:47:34,333
Speaker 33: I'd have one and a heartbeat because he's just so beautiful.

2269
01:47:34,812 --> 01:47:37,572
Speaker 33: I see them at the month Sunday market and I

2270
01:47:37,772 --> 01:47:40,012
Speaker 33: used to have two little whippets, which are a smaller

2271
01:47:40,053 --> 01:47:43,852
Speaker 33: addition to the greyhounds, And when I lost my last whippet.

2272
01:47:46,173 --> 01:47:48,133
Speaker 33: I'd go to the Sunday Market and I'd see the

2273
01:47:48,293 --> 01:47:50,333
Speaker 33: greyhounds here and I'd start growing and have to go

2274
01:47:50,452 --> 01:47:52,093
Speaker 33: away because I couldn't be able to look at them,

2275
01:47:52,133 --> 01:47:54,452
Speaker 33: because they would just remind me so much of my

2276
01:47:54,572 --> 01:47:57,293
Speaker 33: two little whippet bills that cheerly.

2277
01:47:57,333 --> 01:47:59,812
Speaker 3: You've got a beautiful heart. Thank you very much, Chloe.

2278
01:47:59,893 --> 01:48:00,932
Speaker 3: You're a greyhound trainer?

2279
01:48:02,013 --> 01:48:03,013
Speaker 31: A Hi, Yes i am.

2280
01:48:03,772 --> 01:48:06,692
Speaker 20: I'm located up in Whitcattle and my family also runs

2281
01:48:06,732 --> 01:48:09,253
Speaker 20: the rehabitory homing program from the North Island.

2282
01:48:09,933 --> 01:48:11,772
Speaker 2: Well, great to chat to you, right, So is this

2283
01:48:12,293 --> 01:48:14,893
Speaker 2: news today from Winston Peter's come as a shock to

2284
01:48:14,973 --> 01:48:15,652
Speaker 2: you and your family?

2285
01:48:16,372 --> 01:48:19,253
Speaker 20: It does, yeah, definitely, and we weren't expecting it. I

2286
01:48:19,293 --> 01:48:21,013
Speaker 20: didn't even know that it was coming out today, to

2287
01:48:21,093 --> 01:48:25,333
Speaker 20: be honest with you, we definitely didn't expect Winston Peters

2288
01:48:25,372 --> 01:48:27,852
Speaker 20: to make that sort of decision, and definitely not to

2289
01:48:27,933 --> 01:48:31,052
Speaker 20: make a decision so abruptly with such a short amount

2290
01:48:31,053 --> 01:48:34,012
Speaker 20: of time frame for us to rehome so many dogs.

2291
01:48:34,053 --> 01:48:35,652
Speaker 20: I think a year and a half is a bit,

2292
01:48:36,492 --> 01:48:39,372
Speaker 20: you know, not enough time considering how many dogs we

2293
01:48:39,492 --> 01:48:41,732
Speaker 20: rehome in a year. Is it roughly about six hundreds

2294
01:48:41,772 --> 01:48:45,492
Speaker 20: of the new American rehoming scheme as well.

2295
01:48:46,293 --> 01:48:51,492
Speaker 2: Chloe, do you think the description of greyhound their greyhound

2296
01:48:51,532 --> 01:48:54,932
Speaker 2: industry is cruel to dogs as fear from your experience?

2297
01:48:55,853 --> 01:48:59,053
Speaker 20: Oh absolutely not. Look, we have had many dogs over

2298
01:48:59,093 --> 01:49:01,452
Speaker 20: the years, ever since twelve was eight years old, and

2299
01:49:02,093 --> 01:49:03,852
Speaker 20: all the dogs who had so much love and care,

2300
01:49:03,933 --> 01:49:06,933
Speaker 20: and they've been cherished and treated like royalty, and the

2301
01:49:07,013 --> 01:49:09,412
Speaker 20: greyhounds love. What they do is fulfilled, you know, Like

2302
01:49:10,492 --> 01:49:13,293
Speaker 20: Steve said, grehounds are bread for a purpose and a

2303
01:49:13,412 --> 01:49:17,212
Speaker 20: birth purpose is to run and chase. And some greyhounds

2304
01:49:17,293 --> 01:49:19,053
Speaker 20: may not want to do that, but many do and

2305
01:49:19,452 --> 01:49:20,053
Speaker 20: many love it.

2306
01:49:20,372 --> 01:49:20,532
Speaker 5: You know.

2307
01:49:20,612 --> 01:49:23,013
Speaker 20: I take my retired greyhounds down to us Streat Track

2308
01:49:23,093 --> 01:49:25,772
Speaker 20: and they still love a good run even when they're retired.

2309
01:49:25,893 --> 01:49:30,252
Speaker 3: So with some peters have said, Chloe that the industry

2310
01:49:30,372 --> 01:49:33,973
Speaker 3: was given a warning to increase the welfare standards and

2311
01:49:34,372 --> 01:49:36,692
Speaker 3: have less dogs been injured and killed? I mean, does

2312
01:49:36,772 --> 01:49:38,852
Speaker 3: that ring true from you? I'm just trying to get

2313
01:49:38,893 --> 01:49:43,372
Speaker 3: my head around why target greyhound industry or racing in

2314
01:49:43,452 --> 01:49:47,852
Speaker 3: particular when the horse racing has been given that same serve.

2315
01:49:49,093 --> 01:49:51,892
Speaker 20: Personally, I think it is because there's a lot more

2316
01:49:52,333 --> 01:49:55,932
Speaker 20: people against greyhound racing or publicly saying there against greyhound racing.

2317
01:49:55,973 --> 01:49:58,812
Speaker 20: I think greyhound racing is a bit of a smaller community.

2318
01:49:58,933 --> 01:50:02,333
Speaker 20: It's probably an easier target for them to you know,

2319
01:50:02,492 --> 01:50:06,093
Speaker 20: go after and say horrible things about it. Look, I

2320
01:50:06,173 --> 01:50:08,852
Speaker 20: think greyhound racing has up their welfare there one hundred

2321
01:50:08,853 --> 01:50:11,333
Speaker 20: and ten percent. I think there's always more to be done,

2322
01:50:11,412 --> 01:50:13,772
Speaker 20: but we're definitely doing more and I think given the chance,

2323
01:50:13,853 --> 01:50:17,213
Speaker 20: we could absolutely strive for more. Like I said, I

2324
01:50:17,293 --> 01:50:19,333
Speaker 20: worked with the rehab to rehoming program up in the

2325
01:50:19,372 --> 01:50:21,732
Speaker 20: North Island. So basically any dog which does a hawk

2326
01:50:21,853 --> 01:50:25,133
Speaker 20: or a major injury, you know, goes through our program

2327
01:50:25,173 --> 01:50:27,293
Speaker 20: and it's all funded by Greyhound Racing New Zealand. So

2328
01:50:27,372 --> 01:50:29,253
Speaker 20: they all find a home. That dog you just talked

2329
01:50:29,293 --> 01:50:32,532
Speaker 20: about before, Bread from Gap, his name was whose raceland

2330
01:50:32,612 --> 01:50:35,452
Speaker 20: was inside the Sea, He actually came through us. He's

2331
01:50:35,452 --> 01:50:38,252
Speaker 20: a gorgeous, gorgeous forwn boy with a little short dottail.

2332
01:50:38,372 --> 01:50:42,053
Speaker 20: But he would love a new home. But look, I

2333
01:50:42,173 --> 01:50:44,772
Speaker 20: think the welfare has definitely improved. You know, you can't

2334
01:50:44,853 --> 01:50:47,812
Speaker 20: just go around euthanizing greyhounds. They have to you know,

2335
01:50:47,933 --> 01:50:50,452
Speaker 20: you can't do that if you were to euthanize a greyhound,

2336
01:50:50,532 --> 01:50:52,492
Speaker 20: it has to be approved by ground Racing and it

2337
01:50:52,572 --> 01:50:56,253
Speaker 20: has to be a bit recommendation, So you know, you'd

2338
01:50:56,293 --> 01:50:59,012
Speaker 20: have to have a dog that for whatever extreme reason

2339
01:50:59,213 --> 01:51:00,932
Speaker 20: it had to be euthanized. So you can't just put

2340
01:51:01,013 --> 01:51:04,372
Speaker 20: dogs down, Willy Nelly And comparing greyhound racing to many

2341
01:51:04,412 --> 01:51:08,252
Speaker 20: other sports and codes and even just you know, typical

2342
01:51:08,612 --> 01:51:11,492
Speaker 20: sports like agility and stuff. There's always injuries everywhere, but

2343
01:51:11,973 --> 01:51:14,532
Speaker 20: ground racing definitely has the highest standard of welfare in

2344
01:51:14,572 --> 01:51:15,092
Speaker 20: New Zealand.

2345
01:51:15,612 --> 01:51:19,732
Speaker 2: K have you seen in your time any dodgy trainers operating?

2346
01:51:20,572 --> 01:51:22,812
Speaker 20: Like everyone says, there's always bad apples, you know, in

2347
01:51:22,893 --> 01:51:27,013
Speaker 20: the bunch, there's always rotten eggs. But I think you know,

2348
01:51:27,093 --> 01:51:29,333
Speaker 20: people slip us. If they are dodgy trainers, they're going

2349
01:51:29,412 --> 01:51:32,133
Speaker 20: to make a mistake and then the rob does get

2350
01:51:32,173 --> 01:51:34,732
Speaker 20: them for that, and they may get you know, different

2351
01:51:35,652 --> 01:51:39,532
Speaker 20: penalties or disqualifications or whatever that the rob deans that

2352
01:51:39,772 --> 01:51:42,772
Speaker 20: is necessary and I think they do an amazing job

2353
01:51:42,853 --> 01:51:45,412
Speaker 20: and you know, putting those rules to account.

2354
01:51:45,853 --> 01:51:48,492
Speaker 2: Well, it's interesting you say about other businesses. Has someone's

2355
01:51:48,532 --> 01:51:51,372
Speaker 2: pointed out here and I'm not making any moral judgment

2356
01:51:51,612 --> 01:51:54,692
Speaker 2: here at all. But Texas has three million baby boy

2357
01:51:54,812 --> 01:51:57,293
Speaker 2: calves die each year so we can have milk. So

2358
01:51:57,532 --> 01:52:01,213
Speaker 2: nine dogs is that so bad? And as another Texas says,

2359
01:52:01,853 --> 01:52:04,612
Speaker 2: nine dogs that's how many were euthanized in the last

2360
01:52:04,732 --> 01:52:08,013
Speaker 2: year's season, the twenty three to twenty four season, out

2361
01:52:08,053 --> 01:52:12,213
Speaker 2: of thirty seven thousand starts. Yeah, I don't know if

2362
01:52:12,213 --> 01:52:14,652
Speaker 2: that doesn't sound as bad to me. I mean, every

2363
01:52:14,652 --> 01:52:17,852
Speaker 2: one of those is terrible, I'm sure, but it doesn't. Actually,

2364
01:52:17,853 --> 01:52:20,412
Speaker 2: the stats don't sound that bad. But Chloe, this is

2365
01:52:20,452 --> 01:52:22,053
Speaker 2: a text that's come through, and tell me what you

2366
01:52:22,133 --> 01:52:24,652
Speaker 2: think about this. Go to a greyhound race one of

2367
01:52:24,692 --> 01:52:28,133
Speaker 2: the most scungy, deplorable scenes you have ever had, the

2368
01:52:28,213 --> 01:52:31,852
Speaker 2: misfortune and witnessing the people, the environment, just everything about

2369
01:52:31,893 --> 01:52:35,652
Speaker 2: it and all so darro to bet on shame. What

2370
01:52:35,772 --> 01:52:36,692
Speaker 2: do you say to that text?

2371
01:52:37,492 --> 01:52:40,572
Speaker 20: I too, honestly, I think everyone has their own opinion.

2372
01:52:40,692 --> 01:52:43,812
Speaker 20: But being at the greyhound races, you know, weekly a

2373
01:52:43,853 --> 01:52:47,092
Speaker 20: few times a week, the atmosphere there. The greyhound trainers

2374
01:52:47,173 --> 01:52:49,293
Speaker 20: love their dogs, you know, after a race, the first

2375
01:52:49,333 --> 01:52:52,052
Speaker 20: thing trying to do is kiss their dogs, cuddle their dogs.

2376
01:52:52,093 --> 01:52:54,172
Speaker 20: You know, when I put a dog in the boxes

2377
01:52:54,253 --> 01:52:56,253
Speaker 20: for their race. I always tell them to get around safe,

2378
01:52:56,293 --> 01:52:58,612
Speaker 20: you know, don't worry about winning, like I love you

2379
01:52:58,652 --> 01:53:02,372
Speaker 20: anyway and train up here Corey Steele, he's amazing and

2380
01:53:02,452 --> 01:53:04,333
Speaker 20: he was on the ground racing board and every time

2381
01:53:04,692 --> 01:53:06,333
Speaker 20: he put the dog in the boxes he tells him

2382
01:53:06,372 --> 01:53:08,173
Speaker 20: get home safely and gives him a big kiss. You know,

2383
01:53:08,933 --> 01:53:11,812
Speaker 20: all the trainers love their dogs and it's not about

2384
01:53:11,812 --> 01:53:13,933
Speaker 20: the money. It's about what the dogs love. And like

2385
01:53:14,093 --> 01:53:16,372
Speaker 20: Riley Evans, a trainer down in South Island, he wants

2386
01:53:16,412 --> 01:53:18,293
Speaker 20: see it on a podcast. If you're in it for

2387
01:53:18,372 --> 01:53:19,772
Speaker 20: the money, you're in it for the wrong reason. You

2388
01:53:19,812 --> 01:53:21,572
Speaker 20: should be in it for the dogs. And I think

2389
01:53:21,612 --> 01:53:23,253
Speaker 20: everyone is in it for the dogs. And if they

2390
01:53:23,293 --> 01:53:24,972
Speaker 20: are in it for the money, then you know they'll

2391
01:53:24,973 --> 01:53:27,772
Speaker 20: slip up in the rov will get them. But I think,

2392
01:53:28,293 --> 01:53:31,013
Speaker 20: you know, greyhound racing is more than what people put

2393
01:53:31,053 --> 01:53:33,213
Speaker 20: on the surface on social media.

2394
01:53:33,572 --> 01:53:33,772
Speaker 10: Yeah.

2395
01:53:33,933 --> 01:53:36,093
Speaker 3: So the big worry for you now, Cohen, you've said

2396
01:53:36,133 --> 01:53:39,572
Speaker 3: that all very beautifully is what is the future for

2397
01:53:39,652 --> 01:53:42,372
Speaker 3: these two eight hundred greyhounds that now need a new home.

2398
01:53:43,692 --> 01:53:45,932
Speaker 20: I think, just in my opinion, if they were going

2399
01:53:46,013 --> 01:53:48,452
Speaker 20: to do this like Emma, it was sorry they had

2400
01:53:48,492 --> 01:53:52,293
Speaker 20: five greyhounds like, oh see her. Sorry, they should have

2401
01:53:52,772 --> 01:53:54,892
Speaker 20: put a plan in place, like she said, either cut

2402
01:53:54,973 --> 01:53:57,892
Speaker 20: down breeding and advanced or put some sort of plan

2403
01:53:58,093 --> 01:54:00,213
Speaker 20: or even given us I think a minimum of three

2404
01:54:00,293 --> 01:54:04,732
Speaker 20: years to rehomee these dogs and say that racing should

2405
01:54:04,732 --> 01:54:07,372
Speaker 20: have been required a year and a half to rehome

2406
01:54:07,772 --> 01:54:11,932
Speaker 20: close to the thousand dogs. It's ridiculous, you know. Yeah,

2407
01:54:12,013 --> 01:54:13,812
Speaker 20: like I said, we re home six hundred a year,

2408
01:54:13,893 --> 01:54:16,333
Speaker 20: So just expecting that is a bit, you know, over

2409
01:54:16,372 --> 01:54:20,333
Speaker 20: the benchmark. Yeah, unless you know they're prepared to give

2410
01:54:20,372 --> 01:54:26,053
Speaker 20: everyone support and housing these dogs while they do look

2411
01:54:26,093 --> 01:54:29,213
Speaker 20: for homes post grohund Racing being banned. But I think

2412
01:54:29,253 --> 01:54:31,532
Speaker 20: they should have definitely if they were going to put

2413
01:54:31,732 --> 01:54:33,293
Speaker 20: if they decided to put a band, and should have

2414
01:54:33,333 --> 01:54:36,413
Speaker 20: worked with grohund Racing to put a plan in place

2415
01:54:36,493 --> 01:54:38,932
Speaker 20: for all trainers and everyone because there's so many people

2416
01:54:38,973 --> 01:54:41,253
Speaker 20: that are going to lose their jobs and their livelihood

2417
01:54:41,373 --> 01:54:44,093
Speaker 20: and their properties and all their money is revolved around

2418
01:54:44,173 --> 01:54:44,812
Speaker 20: ground racing.

2419
01:54:44,933 --> 01:54:45,453
Speaker 3: Absolutely.

2420
01:54:45,653 --> 01:54:47,213
Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you so much for your call, Chloe. I

2421
01:54:47,253 --> 01:54:50,453
Speaker 2: really appreciate your insight into the industry. Gap see in

2422
01:54:50,533 --> 01:54:52,253
Speaker 2: some grazes Over to Australia. I have a gray that

2423
01:54:52,373 --> 01:54:54,933
Speaker 2: had a hock injury, twenty five k paid by the

2424
01:54:55,253 --> 01:54:59,132
Speaker 2: racing board for surgery. Any injured dog is taking to message,

2425
01:54:59,173 --> 01:55:01,533
Speaker 2: taken to messy vet and operated on within four hours.

2426
01:55:01,573 --> 01:55:04,133
Speaker 2: That's quicker than a human would get an operation. They

2427
01:55:04,173 --> 01:55:06,333
Speaker 2: are awesome dogs. They love to run and they love

2428
01:55:06,413 --> 01:55:07,213
Speaker 2: to sleep on the couch.

2429
01:55:07,373 --> 01:55:07,573
Speaker 13: Yeah.

2430
01:55:07,653 --> 01:55:09,373
Speaker 3: Wow, we're going to it all up very shortly.

2431
