Yes, so I was 35 00:01:51,813 --> 00:01:53,973 Speaker 2: reading up with the story about that nineteen seventy seven 36 00:01:54,213 --> 00:01:58,213 Speaker 2: Bing Crosby Christmas special David Bowie's book to appear on it. 37 00:01:58,693 --> 00:02:00,733 Speaker 2: So you might have seen that little video that's out 38 00:02:00,733 --> 00:02:03,373 Speaker 2: there and David Bowie turns up at the door and 39 00:02:03,413 --> 00:02:06,453 Speaker 2: he pretends he's just a neighbor. Anyway, they sing the song. 40 00:02:07,333 --> 00:02:09,893 Speaker 2: So I've always it was weird that that song's two songs. 41 00:02:09,933 --> 00:02:13,733 Speaker 2: There's Peace on Ear and there's also you know, Ben 42 00:02:13,773 --> 00:02:16,933 Speaker 2: Crosby doing the pump pump Know why that is? They 43 00:02:16,933 --> 00:02:21,373 Speaker 2: were supposed to sing Little Drummer boy. But David Bowie 44 00:02:21,413 --> 00:02:23,853 Speaker 2: turned up and said, I don't really like that song? 45 00:02:24,373 --> 00:02:26,653 Speaker 2: Can we do another one? And Bing Crosby was like, oh, 46 00:02:26,693 --> 00:02:29,333 Speaker 2: I quite loved this song. So the musical directors and 47 00:02:29,453 --> 00:02:32,613 Speaker 2: David Bowie went downstairs and wrote the other song, Peace 48 00:02:32,653 --> 00:02:35,093 Speaker 2: on Earth, that sings above it. Yeah, so when you 49 00:02:35,133 --> 00:02:36,532 Speaker 2: listen to that song, it's kind of like two songs 50 00:02:36,532 --> 00:02:38,972 Speaker 2: are being sung and it just sounds incredible. But that 51 00:02:39,093 --> 00:02:41,013 Speaker 2: was thrown together an hour before the recording. 52 00:02:41,373 --> 00:02:44,773 Speaker 3: Absolute genius Bowie. Wasn't it just incredible music? 53 00:02:44,972 --> 00:02:48,453 Speaker 2: Apparently they gotten really well. David Bowie turned up dressed 54 00:02:48,493 --> 00:02:51,733 Speaker 2: ridiculously because it was nineteen seventy seven and you know, 55 00:02:51,813 --> 00:02:54,333 Speaker 2: being Crosby quite a conservative guy, but they but you know, 56 00:02:54,373 --> 00:02:57,252 Speaker 2: been crossy rated his voice and David Bowie is a 57 00:02:57,252 --> 00:02:59,053 Speaker 2: bit of a fan of being Crosby after all of that. 58 00:02:59,252 --> 00:03:02,213 Speaker 3: Yeah, but amazing, it is amazing. I'm going to listen 59 00:03:02,252 --> 00:03:05,653 Speaker 3: to that. But the person we're chatting with at three 60 00:03:05,773 --> 00:03:08,053 Speaker 3: thirty today, Absolute Great Human. 61 00:03:07,813 --> 00:03:10,653 Speaker 2: Bands, neither been Crosney nor David Bowie. No, that would 62 00:03:10,693 --> 00:03:11,972 Speaker 2: be difficult to arrange. 63 00:03:12,053 --> 00:03:15,453 Speaker 3: It's actually someone better. It is none other than Lee 64 00:03:15,493 --> 00:03:20,053 Speaker 3: Heart's Lee Leehart. You did it way better, but looking 65 00:03:20,053 --> 00:03:21,813 Speaker 3: forward to that. Yeah, I did ruin it. I'm sorry, mate, 66 00:03:21,853 --> 00:03:25,733 Speaker 3: We're looking forward to that after three point thirty. But 67 00:03:25,853 --> 00:03:28,493 Speaker 3: speaking of Christmas catchups. 68 00:03:27,972 --> 00:03:29,573 Speaker 2: Let's just get on with the shawet all. 69 00:03:29,573 --> 00:03:31,413 Speaker 3: Right after three o'clock. We also want to have a 70 00:03:31,493 --> 00:03:35,653 Speaker 3: chat about DVDs and CDs. Apparently they are becoming call again, 71 00:03:35,693 --> 00:03:38,533 Speaker 3: so consumers of all ages are looking to just to 72 00:03:38,573 --> 00:03:41,893 Speaker 3: get offline and away from algorithms, and for a younger 73 00:03:41,933 --> 00:03:46,293 Speaker 3: generation it is seen as vintage. The trend is driven 74 00:03:46,333 --> 00:03:50,853 Speaker 3: by gen Z and obviously the old vinyl thing has 75 00:03:50,893 --> 00:03:52,733 Speaker 3: been a thing of the past. But now CD's a 76 00:03:52,813 --> 00:03:53,373 Speaker 3: call again. 77 00:03:54,213 --> 00:03:56,773 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's amazing and I've seen this. This sounds ridiculous, 78 00:03:56,773 --> 00:03:58,573 Speaker 2: it sounds like it's not true, but it is. And 79 00:03:58,653 --> 00:04:00,693 Speaker 2: when I started hearing about, I thought rubbish. Kids aren't 80 00:04:00,693 --> 00:04:04,173 Speaker 2: buying CDs. Who cares? But they are. And I know 81 00:04:04,253 --> 00:04:07,973 Speaker 2: this because I've got friends of my son. They're collecting CD's, 82 00:04:08,013 --> 00:04:12,093 Speaker 2: friends of my friends, kids of my friends are collecting CDs. 83 00:04:12,133 --> 00:04:15,013 Speaker 2: Now it's a really big thing. And they don't even 84 00:04:15,053 --> 00:04:17,013 Speaker 2: listen to them. That's not the point of it. The 85 00:04:17,053 --> 00:04:19,813 Speaker 2: point you still listen to it on your streaming. But 86 00:04:19,933 --> 00:04:23,533 Speaker 2: you just want a physical representation of the bands that 87 00:04:23,573 --> 00:04:27,133 Speaker 2: you love and owning their album. So CDs are back, Baby, 88 00:04:27,213 --> 00:04:29,093 Speaker 2: Vinyls back, CDs are back. Isn't it interesting? 89 00:04:29,173 --> 00:04:30,133 Speaker 3: Yeah? 90 00:04:30,213 --> 00:04:33,493 Speaker 2: As things get more and more convenient, people want things 91 00:04:33,493 --> 00:04:35,493 Speaker 2: that are actually a little bit more tangible. 92 00:04:35,533 --> 00:04:37,213 Speaker 3: Yep, I can understand that. But we're going to open 93 00:04:37,253 --> 00:04:39,573 Speaker 3: up the phone lines to you after three o'clock if 94 00:04:39,573 --> 00:04:42,373 Speaker 3: you're getting back into your CDs after two o'clock. Crazy 95 00:04:42,413 --> 00:04:45,253 Speaker 3: story centers on a little, non but rapidly growing practice 96 00:04:45,333 --> 00:04:49,053 Speaker 3: in the largely unregulated US surrogacy industry. So this is 97 00:04:49,133 --> 00:04:53,173 Speaker 3: wealthy Chinese elite, some of them billionaires, using American surrogate 98 00:04:53,253 --> 00:04:56,613 Speaker 3: mothers to have large numbers of children, often without ever 99 00:04:56,693 --> 00:04:59,613 Speaker 3: setting foot in the United States. This trend came to 100 00:04:59,693 --> 00:05:03,413 Speaker 3: light after a Los Angeles Family Court judge notice repeated 101 00:05:03,533 --> 00:05:07,653 Speaker 3: surrogacy petitions from the same Chinese billionaire who hope to 102 00:05:07,693 --> 00:05:09,773 Speaker 3: have around twenty US born sons. 103 00:05:10,293 --> 00:05:15,453 Speaker 2: So it costs about two hundred thousand American to organize 104 00:05:15,453 --> 00:05:18,573 Speaker 2: a surrogacy, So is it worth that? Is it worth 105 00:05:18,773 --> 00:05:21,733 Speaker 2: two hundred and two hundred thousand dollars American to have 106 00:05:21,773 --> 00:05:24,453 Speaker 2: a child? Then and give it to some weird billionaire 107 00:05:24,453 --> 00:05:27,533 Speaker 2: who's trying to collect an army of sons. I don't know. 108 00:05:27,693 --> 00:05:30,733 Speaker 3: Oh, in all seriousness, it makes you wonder. Two hundred 109 00:05:30,773 --> 00:05:32,693 Speaker 3: thousand bucks. That is a lot of money for a 110 00:05:32,693 --> 00:05:35,733 Speaker 3: lot of people, me included. They said to you, you know, 111 00:05:35,893 --> 00:05:37,573 Speaker 3: you've got to knock on the door saying, hey, I'd 112 00:05:37,653 --> 00:05:40,093 Speaker 3: quite like you to be a surrogate. Not me obviously, 113 00:05:40,093 --> 00:05:42,373 Speaker 3: because I can't do that. And here's two hundred thousand 114 00:05:42,413 --> 00:05:44,973 Speaker 3: dollars years for your troubles. Yeah, it's hard to say 115 00:05:45,013 --> 00:05:45,733 Speaker 3: no to but. 116 00:05:45,693 --> 00:05:47,133 Speaker 2: Difficult to give up your kid at the end of it. 117 00:05:47,133 --> 00:05:49,413 Speaker 2: I think I think there's a lot of attachment in 118 00:05:49,453 --> 00:05:53,493 Speaker 2: the pregnancy process. So yeah, well let's talk about that. 119 00:05:53,533 --> 00:05:56,973 Speaker 2: What do you think about this and surrogacy in general. 120 00:05:57,253 --> 00:05:59,533 Speaker 2: You know, have you experienced it on either side of it? 121 00:05:59,813 --> 00:06:03,093 Speaker 2: You know, how does it all go down? Because this 122 00:06:03,573 --> 00:06:05,453 Speaker 2: just seems a little bit sick just to be trying 123 00:06:05,493 --> 00:06:08,813 Speaker 2: to have all these children. Then again, we have a 124 00:06:08,893 --> 00:06:12,453 Speaker 2: massive population collapse problem in the world, very true. So 125 00:06:12,733 --> 00:06:14,733 Speaker 2: if we need more children and people are willing to 126 00:06:14,773 --> 00:06:17,013 Speaker 2: pay someone two hundred thousand dollars to have that child, 127 00:06:17,013 --> 00:06:18,493 Speaker 2: and that person wants to have the child for two 128 00:06:18,533 --> 00:06:22,373 Speaker 2: hundred thousand dollars and maybe the person wants five hundred kids, 129 00:06:22,373 --> 00:06:24,293 Speaker 2: but they're a billionaire and they can pay for them. 130 00:06:24,333 --> 00:06:24,533 Speaker 4: Then. 131 00:06:25,213 --> 00:06:26,933 Speaker 2: I don't know. It feels like key to me, but 132 00:06:26,973 --> 00:06:28,213 Speaker 2: maybe that's the future. 133 00:06:28,293 --> 00:06:30,493 Speaker 3: That's going to be an interesting chat after Talklop. But 134 00:06:30,613 --> 00:06:32,973 Speaker 3: right now, let's get into this. So, schools have cracked 135 00:06:32,973 --> 00:06:36,533 Speaker 3: down on more fights and assaults than ever before. The 136 00:06:36,653 --> 00:06:39,133 Speaker 3: roles have increased, but they've clamped down harder. So the 137 00:06:39,253 --> 00:06:42,493 Speaker 3: Education Ministry Ministry figures show the number of standowns for 138 00:06:42,573 --> 00:06:46,813 Speaker 3: children who physically assaulted other students or their teachers reached 139 00:06:46,853 --> 00:06:50,093 Speaker 3: almost eleven thousands. They are some big numbers. 140 00:06:50,853 --> 00:06:53,613 Speaker 2: Yeah, So really what we want to talk about on 141 00:06:53,613 --> 00:06:56,173 Speaker 2: our one hundred and eighty ten eighty is violence in 142 00:06:56,253 --> 00:06:59,213 Speaker 2: schools because we keep hearing these stats and there's a 143 00:06:59,213 --> 00:07:01,053 Speaker 2: lot of panic out there. But I think schools are 144 00:07:01,093 --> 00:07:04,653 Speaker 2: less violent than they've ever been. I think schools in 145 00:07:04,773 --> 00:07:09,173 Speaker 2: terms of student on student violence, because back in my day, 146 00:07:09,613 --> 00:07:11,773 Speaker 2: when I was at school through the eighties and nineties, 147 00:07:12,373 --> 00:07:14,653 Speaker 2: you would there was a lot of hidings going on. 148 00:07:14,813 --> 00:07:17,373 Speaker 2: There was, and I got a lot of hidings, but 149 00:07:17,373 --> 00:07:19,613 Speaker 2: there was never even a suggestion that I could go 150 00:07:19,693 --> 00:07:21,613 Speaker 2: and speak to a teacher about it. The repercussions for 151 00:07:21,653 --> 00:07:25,733 Speaker 2: talking to a teacher about it were were worse than 152 00:07:25,813 --> 00:07:26,613 Speaker 2: anything that could. 153 00:07:26,493 --> 00:07:28,173 Speaker 3: Happen, right, Yeah, absolutely. 154 00:07:28,253 --> 00:07:30,133 Speaker 2: And there also there was a bit of an attitude 155 00:07:30,173 --> 00:07:33,133 Speaker 2: from teachers that, you know, don't tell tales, just sort 156 00:07:33,173 --> 00:07:35,253 Speaker 2: it out on the playground because you know, they came 157 00:07:35,293 --> 00:07:38,293 Speaker 2: from a harder time. Again, so they are, but like 158 00:07:38,453 --> 00:07:40,573 Speaker 2: you know, so you're being hung up on a locker, 159 00:07:40,693 --> 00:07:42,693 Speaker 2: you know, get bigger, learn out of fight. 160 00:07:42,853 --> 00:07:44,853 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was the philosophy back then. 161 00:07:45,213 --> 00:07:48,213 Speaker 2: And I think that's bad, and I think kids should 162 00:07:48,213 --> 00:07:51,413 Speaker 2: be safe at school, but I do think that they are. 163 00:07:51,533 --> 00:07:54,733 Speaker 2: I think there is less physical bullying at schools now 164 00:07:54,853 --> 00:07:58,493 Speaker 2: than there was even in the early two thousands. Whether 165 00:07:58,573 --> 00:08:02,813 Speaker 2: there is more confrontations between physical confrontations between students and 166 00:08:02,813 --> 00:08:05,253 Speaker 2: teachers now, I think that was a very very rare 167 00:08:05,253 --> 00:08:06,893 Speaker 2: thing back in the day, Yes, but I think that's 168 00:08:06,933 --> 00:08:09,453 Speaker 2: becoming more and more common. So what do you think 169 00:08:09,533 --> 00:08:12,133 Speaker 2: a school's violent, more or less violent than they used 170 00:08:12,133 --> 00:08:14,773 Speaker 2: to be? Are you worried about these ten thousand students 171 00:08:14,773 --> 00:08:18,453 Speaker 2: stood down for assaults as school roles surge. I don't 172 00:08:18,453 --> 00:08:21,093 Speaker 2: know why school's rolling, Whether it's a school roll surge 173 00:08:21,133 --> 00:08:22,973 Speaker 2: thing or not. But are you worried about this? What 174 00:08:23,013 --> 00:08:25,213 Speaker 2: do you think things are a bit better in schools 175 00:08:25,213 --> 00:08:25,813 Speaker 2: than they used to be? 176 00:08:25,933 --> 00:08:27,933 Speaker 3: Come on through, I wait one hundred and eighty ten eighty. 177 00:08:27,933 --> 00:08:30,453 Speaker 3: If you're a parent and your child has been involved 178 00:08:30,493 --> 00:08:32,013 Speaker 3: in a bit of a scuffle, how was it all 179 00:08:32,053 --> 00:08:34,653 Speaker 3: sorted out? And do you think the schools are generally 180 00:08:34,973 --> 00:08:38,093 Speaker 3: safer than they have been in the nineties, two thousands 181 00:08:38,173 --> 00:08:40,333 Speaker 3: and the eighties. Love to hear from you nineteen ninety two? 182 00:08:40,453 --> 00:08:42,213 Speaker 3: Is the text number is well? 183 00:08:42,372 --> 00:08:42,532 Speaker 4: Back? 184 00:08:42,653 --> 00:08:44,613 Speaker 3: Very surely? It is fourteen past one. 185 00:08:45,533 --> 00:08:48,973 Speaker 1: The big stories, the big issues, the big trends and 186 00:08:49,293 --> 00:08:50,293 Speaker 1: everything in between. 187 00:08:50,453 --> 00:08:53,372 Speaker 6: Matt Heath and Tyler Adams afternoons used talks. 188 00:08:53,413 --> 00:08:56,412 Speaker 3: They'd be afternoon to you, seventeen past one. So we're 189 00:08:56,413 --> 00:08:59,693 Speaker 3: talking about the schools cracked down on fights and assaults. 190 00:08:59,852 --> 00:09:03,893 Speaker 3: Up to or almost eleven thousand kids were stood down 191 00:09:04,012 --> 00:09:06,893 Speaker 3: for either physically assaulting other students or their teachers. So 192 00:09:06,892 --> 00:09:09,293 Speaker 3: the question we're put to you is our school's safer 193 00:09:09,333 --> 00:09:12,493 Speaker 3: than they've ever been. But as you mentioned, Matt, there 194 00:09:12,573 --> 00:09:14,773 Speaker 3: might be a question there when it comes to assaults 195 00:09:14,813 --> 00:09:16,732 Speaker 3: on teachers. If you're in the industry love to hear 196 00:09:16,773 --> 00:09:17,053 Speaker 3: from you. 197 00:09:17,773 --> 00:09:20,253 Speaker 2: The six says, guys, it's just because it's less acceptable now. 198 00:09:20,293 --> 00:09:23,093 Speaker 2: I'm an eighties baby, and getting and giving a donk 199 00:09:23,213 --> 00:09:25,453 Speaker 2: was common, and we never cried to the teacher about it. 200 00:09:25,492 --> 00:09:27,813 Speaker 2: We just took it. I feel like because your generation 201 00:09:28,053 --> 00:09:31,053 Speaker 2: had like that, we tell our kids don't let anyone 202 00:09:31,132 --> 00:09:34,532 Speaker 2: hit you and say something that. It's just more exposed 203 00:09:34,573 --> 00:09:37,653 Speaker 2: now because schools have a zero tolerance all the ones 204 00:09:37,693 --> 00:09:39,893 Speaker 2: my kids attended, so they have to stand them down 205 00:09:39,933 --> 00:09:42,173 Speaker 2: and report it. The one time I got done for 206 00:09:42,252 --> 00:09:44,653 Speaker 2: fighting in primary schools, my punishment was doing lines in 207 00:09:44,693 --> 00:09:46,333 Speaker 2: the office in my lunch break. 208 00:09:46,612 --> 00:09:49,213 Speaker 3: So true. Oh one hundred and eighty ten eighty is 209 00:09:49,213 --> 00:09:52,733 Speaker 3: that number to call? Guy? How are you Ida? 210 00:09:53,333 --> 00:09:56,053 Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm just ringing about my son who had a 211 00:09:56,093 --> 00:09:59,453 Speaker 7: boy come from another school specon him at school, and 212 00:10:00,653 --> 00:10:03,733 Speaker 7: it was over a perceived nothing and why boy'd never 213 00:10:03,773 --> 00:10:05,453 Speaker 7: really been in a fight apart from a few play 214 00:10:05,453 --> 00:10:07,933 Speaker 7: fights with his lates. And this guy got quite nasty 215 00:10:07,973 --> 00:10:11,573 Speaker 7: is kicking out and stuff, and a teacher ended up 216 00:10:11,573 --> 00:10:13,653 Speaker 7: breaking up. But then he came again the next day. 217 00:10:14,173 --> 00:10:16,853 Speaker 7: And this is from another city too, so he's got 218 00:10:16,933 --> 00:10:19,413 Speaker 7: to get on a train to get there, and he 219 00:10:19,492 --> 00:10:21,493 Speaker 7: was trying to make a bit of a name for himself. 220 00:10:22,453 --> 00:10:25,853 Speaker 7: And when I saw the video, I was actually quite 221 00:10:25,852 --> 00:10:28,293 Speaker 7: disgusted because my boys was sitting there parrying his shots 222 00:10:28,293 --> 00:10:31,132 Speaker 7: and his kicks and just blocking and not doing anything 223 00:10:31,173 --> 00:10:32,973 Speaker 7: about it. So I took him into the garage and 224 00:10:32,973 --> 00:10:35,532 Speaker 7: pulled down my old punching bag and showed him what 225 00:10:35,573 --> 00:10:39,973 Speaker 7: to do. Well, he turned up another time and I 226 00:10:40,132 --> 00:10:42,533 Speaker 7: was just down the road and I got a call 227 00:10:42,732 --> 00:10:44,852 Speaker 7: and the kid was on a field and he came 228 00:10:44,892 --> 00:10:46,973 Speaker 7: over and he didn't care whether I was there. Well, 229 00:10:47,012 --> 00:10:49,373 Speaker 7: three teachers were there, which they were because I was 230 00:10:49,372 --> 00:10:51,372 Speaker 7: having a word saying what are you guys doing about? 231 00:10:51,852 --> 00:10:54,773 Speaker 7: They had him trespassed and everything this kid. So this 232 00:10:54,892 --> 00:10:57,932 Speaker 7: was on the third visit. Then the police arranged to 233 00:10:58,372 --> 00:11:01,892 Speaker 7: sit down with the mother and myself and Tristan's mother 234 00:11:03,093 --> 00:11:07,653 Speaker 7: and he was apologetic and stuff. So a little bit 235 00:11:07,653 --> 00:11:09,973 Speaker 7: down the track of his was on the bus and 236 00:11:10,093 --> 00:11:12,612 Speaker 7: my boy gave me a text and said, these three 237 00:11:12,653 --> 00:11:16,253 Speaker 7: guys are going to jump me when I get off 238 00:11:16,293 --> 00:11:17,492 Speaker 7: the bus. They're going to get off at the same 239 00:11:17,533 --> 00:11:19,933 Speaker 7: stop as me. And I said, all right, well, I'll 240 00:11:19,973 --> 00:11:21,733 Speaker 7: be there because it's just across the road from home. 241 00:11:22,252 --> 00:11:25,292 Speaker 7: So I hid behind the fence and I waited for 242 00:11:25,372 --> 00:11:27,653 Speaker 7: him to to get off the bus. And sure enough, 243 00:11:27,693 --> 00:11:30,413 Speaker 7: this kid started kicking, kicking out at my boy, and 244 00:11:30,453 --> 00:11:33,132 Speaker 7: by the time I got across the road, my boyd 245 00:11:33,213 --> 00:11:35,573 Speaker 7: laid three on the guy's chin, which was quite satisfying. 246 00:11:37,053 --> 00:11:38,693 Speaker 7: And there was another young fellow that heard what was 247 00:11:38,693 --> 00:11:41,132 Speaker 7: going on. He got off the bus at the same time, 248 00:11:41,213 --> 00:11:44,253 Speaker 7: and he came and helped as well. Now down the 249 00:11:44,293 --> 00:11:48,453 Speaker 7: track we go back to the original guy, his brother 250 00:11:48,612 --> 00:11:53,492 Speaker 7: and three others. They were all in ski masks and 251 00:11:53,773 --> 00:11:58,013 Speaker 7: hoddies and they waited for him by his moped. He 252 00:11:58,093 --> 00:12:01,093 Speaker 7: got told by people that they were there, so he 253 00:12:01,132 --> 00:12:03,533 Speaker 7: when he came towards his moped, they'd gone, or so 254 00:12:03,653 --> 00:12:05,973 Speaker 7: he thought. So he's putting his key in the ignission 255 00:12:06,093 --> 00:12:07,973 Speaker 7: and he got jumped from behind by one of them 256 00:12:08,933 --> 00:12:14,732 Speaker 7: that was in the bushes. So he knocked that guy, 257 00:12:15,252 --> 00:12:17,333 Speaker 7: the biggest one in the first one that started to 258 00:12:17,372 --> 00:12:19,372 Speaker 7: the ground, and the others backed off and the guy 259 00:12:19,372 --> 00:12:21,292 Speaker 7: got up and they were fighting. It was on video 260 00:12:21,293 --> 00:12:24,093 Speaker 7: for about two minutes and and and he was raining 261 00:12:24,132 --> 00:12:26,292 Speaker 7: these punches on this guy who didn't didn't want to stop, 262 00:12:26,333 --> 00:12:28,973 Speaker 7: but keep coming forward and taking them. And then then 263 00:12:29,012 --> 00:12:31,012 Speaker 7: the brother of this guy who initially started all this 264 00:12:31,173 --> 00:12:33,372 Speaker 7: way back come up and cheap shot at him in 265 00:12:33,413 --> 00:12:34,132 Speaker 7: the side of the face. 266 00:12:35,093 --> 00:12:38,373 Speaker 2: So what do you know who they are? So you 267 00:12:38,372 --> 00:12:41,052 Speaker 2: so you obviously had that parents sit down, But the 268 00:12:41,693 --> 00:12:44,893 Speaker 2: wider people, I mean, that's that's that's police matter. 269 00:12:44,732 --> 00:12:45,933 Speaker 6: Right yep. 270 00:12:46,012 --> 00:12:49,052 Speaker 7: So so the police come there and once again the 271 00:12:50,132 --> 00:12:52,372 Speaker 7: kids that said that they're going to you're going to 272 00:12:52,413 --> 00:12:53,533 Speaker 7: come back and get him the next day, and who 273 00:12:53,573 --> 00:12:57,133 Speaker 7: was five of them and wait for them. The police 274 00:12:57,173 --> 00:13:01,013 Speaker 7: told me that the initial agressa wouldn't be there. I've 275 00:13:01,053 --> 00:13:03,413 Speaker 7: just complained the other day that the police Complaints authority 276 00:13:03,453 --> 00:13:07,093 Speaker 7: because I'm having no follow up with this. The guy 277 00:13:07,132 --> 00:13:08,893 Speaker 7: that did the cheap shot that they if they said 278 00:13:08,892 --> 00:13:10,973 Speaker 7: that they were going to do him because because of 279 00:13:11,012 --> 00:13:12,813 Speaker 7: the coward laws and all that sort of thing they 280 00:13:12,852 --> 00:13:15,413 Speaker 7: were they were they were really disappointed with that guy's behavior. 281 00:13:15,413 --> 00:13:19,053 Speaker 7: But the initial agrouse, who was about six foot two, well, 282 00:13:19,612 --> 00:13:21,612 Speaker 7: it appeared that nothing was going to happen there because 283 00:13:21,732 --> 00:13:24,053 Speaker 7: they perceived that my boy should have backed off him 284 00:13:24,252 --> 00:13:27,172 Speaker 7: after after he was defending himself. But my boy kept 285 00:13:27,213 --> 00:13:29,532 Speaker 7: there with his hand waiting for the guy to keep coming, 286 00:13:30,333 --> 00:13:32,333 Speaker 7: and I said, there's no there's no jury in the 287 00:13:32,413 --> 00:13:34,573 Speaker 7: land that would convict my boy. This is like I say, 288 00:13:34,612 --> 00:13:39,612 Speaker 7: all on video for defending himself against four masked guys. 289 00:13:41,573 --> 00:13:43,933 Speaker 7: And they said, well you know, and I said, well, 290 00:13:44,293 --> 00:13:46,013 Speaker 7: I want to know the outcome, which I've not heard 291 00:13:46,053 --> 00:13:48,413 Speaker 7: anything of. I was sent an email to the to 292 00:13:48,492 --> 00:13:51,853 Speaker 7: the police asking what's happened. I took Friday off work 293 00:13:51,933 --> 00:13:53,412 Speaker 7: last week and I went and sat in the police 294 00:13:53,453 --> 00:13:55,813 Speaker 7: station to try and get a result. They said no, 295 00:13:55,933 --> 00:13:59,772 Speaker 7: the officers are at the cricket and nobody wanted to help. 296 00:14:01,533 --> 00:14:04,372 Speaker 7: I then got a phone call. When I left, I 297 00:14:04,453 --> 00:14:07,052 Speaker 7: got a phone call saying that it's gone to uth 298 00:14:07,053 --> 00:14:09,093 Speaker 7: Ad and it looks like it's been dealt. 299 00:14:09,732 --> 00:14:10,533 Speaker 4: We can't give you. 300 00:14:10,973 --> 00:14:14,252 Speaker 7: The results of it because they don't know. And but 301 00:14:14,293 --> 00:14:16,333 Speaker 7: what I'm getting to is the problem we've got in 302 00:14:16,372 --> 00:14:19,573 Speaker 7: this country, mate, is there's no consequences for this crackhouse behavior. 303 00:14:20,093 --> 00:14:23,412 Speaker 7: There's no consequences whatsoever. And sometimes the boys sorting it 304 00:14:23,453 --> 00:14:25,973 Speaker 7: out themselves can be a good thing, but when you 305 00:14:25,973 --> 00:14:28,093 Speaker 7: get scenarios like this, we've got four or five and. 306 00:14:29,893 --> 00:14:32,933 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yeah, because the thing about sorting about yourself 307 00:14:33,173 --> 00:14:36,093 Speaker 2: is that you don't know what chaos you're entering into 308 00:14:36,133 --> 00:14:39,093 Speaker 2: the system. So, I mean, the right thing is to 309 00:14:39,133 --> 00:14:41,933 Speaker 2: talk to parents and to talk to teachers. But if 310 00:14:42,373 --> 00:14:45,293 Speaker 2: they're coming across town, they're putting on masks, and they're 311 00:14:45,293 --> 00:14:48,853 Speaker 2: targeting someone on the street, then that should be. 312 00:14:49,253 --> 00:14:52,613 Speaker 8: Resources should be every resource should be deployed, Every resource 313 00:14:52,613 --> 00:14:56,493 Speaker 8: should be deployed to get these absolute assholes, is the 314 00:14:56,573 --> 00:14:59,253 Speaker 8: only word I can straight criminals. 315 00:14:59,293 --> 00:15:02,733 Speaker 7: Complete assholes. Yeah, and last week he's in McDonald's with 316 00:15:02,773 --> 00:15:06,172 Speaker 7: his girlfriend and one of the aggresses came up to 317 00:15:06,253 --> 00:15:08,693 Speaker 7: him and said, go on this curtain and fight. And 318 00:15:09,053 --> 00:15:11,532 Speaker 7: Tristan's trouble fighting this guy.

According to Education Ministry figures, 466 00:22:22,133 --> 00:22:25,333 Speaker 3: eleven thousand kids we're stood down for exts of violence 467 00:22:25,333 --> 00:22:28,573 Speaker 3: against students or teachers.

Total student numbers serves 475 00:22:48,733 --> 00:22:50,893 Speaker 2: to eight hundred and fifty thousand night, Well, let's say 476 00:22:50,893 --> 00:22:54,053 Speaker 2: eight hundred and fifty one thousand, So it's eleven thousand 477 00:22:54,173 --> 00:22:58,773 Speaker 2: out of eight hundred and fifty one thousand, So it's 478 00:22:58,813 --> 00:23:01,653 Speaker 2: a small ish number. I mean, that doesn't mean much 479 00:23:01,693 --> 00:23:03,813 Speaker 2: to the nine hundred and seventy you know, the victims 480 00:23:03,813 --> 00:23:06,093 Speaker 2: of the nine hundred and seven thousand and fifty eight 481 00:23:06,173 --> 00:23:10,213 Speaker 2: students who have assaulted other other students. And you can 482 00:23:10,253 --> 00:23:13,373 Speaker 2: imagine that someone that sults one student's probably assulting a 483 00:23:13,413 --> 00:23:14,653 Speaker 2: bunch of different students. 484 00:23:14,333 --> 00:23:17,173 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, but you're right on a percentage basis when 485 00:23:17,213 --> 00:23:18,693 Speaker 3: you think about all the kids at school, and they 486 00:23:18,773 --> 00:23:22,213 Speaker 3: got the numbers there, and arguably you could say back 487 00:23:22,213 --> 00:23:24,093 Speaker 3: when you're at school, back when I was at high school. 488 00:23:24,133 --> 00:23:26,573 Speaker 3: The difference there is it wasn't reported. And genuinely, we 489 00:23:26,613 --> 00:23:29,293 Speaker 3: talked about this before we started the show, the idea 490 00:23:29,333 --> 00:23:31,453 Speaker 3: of the third forms. When you started the third form, 491 00:23:31,613 --> 00:23:33,573 Speaker 3: it was well known at the school I went to 492 00:23:34,013 --> 00:23:35,773 Speaker 3: that you're going to get chucked down the hill, you're 493 00:23:35,773 --> 00:23:37,052 Speaker 3: going to get a bit of a dust up from 494 00:23:37,093 --> 00:23:38,773 Speaker 3: the older schools. It was kind of like a tradition 495 00:23:38,893 --> 00:23:41,373 Speaker 3: that stopped now, but it was part and part or 496 00:23:41,413 --> 00:23:43,013 Speaker 3: when I was at school and a lot of other people. 497 00:23:43,133 --> 00:23:45,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, has that stopped because I believe when 498 00:23:45,093 --> 00:23:48,453 Speaker 2: I was at school that it wasn't even really there 499 00:23:48,493 --> 00:23:51,213 Speaker 2: weren't really things in place to even complain about it. 500 00:23:51,813 --> 00:23:53,333 Speaker 2: You just sort of had to sort it out and 501 00:23:53,333 --> 00:23:56,893 Speaker 2: get some friends around you and try and deal with it. Yeah, 502 00:23:57,653 --> 00:24:01,693 Speaker 2: So I feel like the numbers were of the reporting 503 00:24:01,733 --> 00:24:04,213 Speaker 2: numbers would be up. Yes, so you look at this, 504 00:24:04,893 --> 00:24:07,293 Speaker 2: nine seven hundred and fifty eight students were stood down 505 00:24:07,293 --> 00:24:10,453 Speaker 2: for assulting other teachers of other students. I imagine back 506 00:24:10,493 --> 00:24:14,453 Speaker 2: in my day at Bogan Park High School there, you know, 507 00:24:14,533 --> 00:24:17,253 Speaker 2: there was no one was complaining when they got hit. 508 00:24:17,413 --> 00:24:19,933 Speaker 3: Yeah, there was no records being kept, No for when 509 00:24:19,933 --> 00:24:21,373 Speaker 3: someone had a punch on the playground. 510 00:24:21,573 --> 00:24:24,773 Speaker 2: Hi, guys, this is this exitruancy. Lack of engagement causes 511 00:24:24,813 --> 00:24:27,693 Speaker 2: disruptive behavior, especially if they can't read when they leave 512 00:24:27,733 --> 00:24:31,053 Speaker 2: primary school. Routine discipline will improve behavior, and Seymour and 513 00:24:31,173 --> 00:24:33,493 Speaker 2: Erica are working on this, but teachers and parents need 514 00:24:33,533 --> 00:24:38,053 Speaker 2: to also be clear about kid expectations. Dan, welcome to 515 00:24:38,053 --> 00:24:38,373 Speaker 2: the show. 516 00:24:40,053 --> 00:24:42,013 Speaker 4: Hey guys, there you go very well. 517 00:24:42,053 --> 00:24:44,173 Speaker 3: Can you hear your story? 518 00:24:44,653 --> 00:24:45,133 Speaker 4: Yeah? 519 00:24:45,853 --> 00:24:48,413 Speaker 13: Yeah, A bit of an interesting, interesting story happened to 520 00:24:48,533 --> 00:24:50,773 Speaker 13: my son quite a few years back when he was 521 00:24:51,053 --> 00:24:55,453 Speaker 13: an intermediate he I think it was about eleven or twelve, 522 00:24:55,493 --> 00:24:58,213 Speaker 13: and we just moved to the area, so it's new 523 00:24:58,253 --> 00:25:02,333 Speaker 13: to the school, maybe about two three weeks.

I heard this first on Heather Duplessy Allen's breakfast 831 00:39:47,213 --> 00:39:50,053 Speaker 2: show and for Mike Hosking the other day, and it's 832 00:39:51,253 --> 00:39:53,692 Speaker 2: blew my mind. Yeah, So shall we listen to her 833 00:39:53,733 --> 00:39:54,293 Speaker 2: discussing it. 834 00:39:54,453 --> 00:39:54,853 Speaker 3: Let's do it. 835 00:39:55,173 --> 00:39:57,053 Speaker 10: Listen, gott to tell you about this weird thing that's 836 00:39:57,093 --> 00:40:01,933 Speaker 10: happening in the US. Apparently, really really, really wealthy like 837 00:40:02,093 --> 00:40:07,253 Speaker 10: billionaire level wealthy Chinese businessmen are having hundreds and hundreds 838 00:40:07,293 --> 00:40:10,493 Speaker 10: of surrogates in the US, and not hundreds and hundreds each, 839 00:40:10,533 --> 00:40:12,533 Speaker 10: but in some cases some of them are having up 840 00:40:12,573 --> 00:40:15,053 Speaker 10: to one hundred surrogate babies in the US. Now we 841 00:40:15,173 --> 00:40:17,333 Speaker 10: know about this because this has been going through the 842 00:40:17,413 --> 00:40:19,613 Speaker 10: courts in the US for a couple of years, and 843 00:40:19,773 --> 00:40:21,973 Speaker 10: for the first time one of the judge's decisions has 844 00:40:22,053 --> 00:40:24,652 Speaker 10: been reported by media over there. And it's the case 845 00:40:24,693 --> 00:40:27,613 Speaker 10: of a video game executive whose name is Jubo, who's 846 00:40:27,613 --> 00:40:30,573 Speaker 10: had one hundred kids, and he went to court seeking 847 00:40:30,653 --> 00:40:34,253 Speaker 10: parental rights to four of these unborn children, and the 848 00:40:34,373 --> 00:40:37,253 Speaker 10: courts have declined. They said, no, you actually do not 849 00:40:37,333 --> 00:40:38,933 Speaker 10: have the right of a parent to these children. You've 850 00:40:39,053 --> 00:40:41,533 Speaker 10: had nothing, apart from obviously donating your sperm, nothing to 851 00:40:41,613 --> 00:40:43,813 Speaker 10: do with them, and it's leaving the kids in a 852 00:40:44,053 --> 00:40:49,093 Speaker 10: very legally weird place. He already has these four that 853 00:40:49,213 --> 00:40:51,133 Speaker 10: are being born, has another eight that they know of, 854 00:40:51,213 --> 00:40:54,093 Speaker 10: and potentially up to one hundred. He said, he wants 855 00:40:54,173 --> 00:40:56,893 Speaker 10: to have all of the boys the children be boys 856 00:40:56,973 --> 00:40:59,613 Speaker 10: because boys are superior to girls, and then he wants 857 00:40:59,653 --> 00:41:02,013 Speaker 10: the boys to one day take over his business. And 858 00:41:02,133 --> 00:41:04,693 Speaker 10: how this basically runs over the US is that the 859 00:41:04,773 --> 00:41:07,373 Speaker 10: babies are born via surrogate and then they're raised by 860 00:41:07,493 --> 00:41:10,293 Speaker 10: nanny's over there as they await paperwork to travel back 861 00:41:10,333 --> 00:41:13,453 Speaker 10: to China, and he doesn't meet them at the time. 862 00:41:13,893 --> 00:41:15,933 Speaker 10: And this is so like up to the time that 863 00:41:16,013 --> 00:41:19,573 Speaker 10: they arrive in China. This is so widespread in the US. 864 00:41:19,693 --> 00:41:21,933 Speaker 10: By the way, there are so many Chinese business people 865 00:41:21,933 --> 00:41:23,973 Speaker 10: who are now doing it. Some of them just you know, 866 00:41:24,413 --> 00:41:26,333 Speaker 10: unable to have children, just want a couple of kids 867 00:41:26,413 --> 00:41:29,933 Speaker 10: like normal people. Some of them doing like kookie things 868 00:41:30,013 --> 00:41:31,773 Speaker 10: like having ten girls because they want to marry them 869 00:41:31,813 --> 00:41:34,172 Speaker 10: off to powerful men. So much of this was going 870 00:41:34,213 --> 00:41:37,053 Speaker 10: on that there is any a thriving mini industry in 871 00:41:37,133 --> 00:41:41,173 Speaker 10: the US. There are surrogacy agencies, law firms, clinics, delivery agencies, 872 00:41:41,293 --> 00:41:44,772 Speaker 10: nanny services who'll pick the newborns up from the hospital as. 873 00:41:44,693 --> 00:41:46,933 Speaker 2: Soon as they arrive. Costs up to two hundred thousand 874 00:41:46,973 --> 00:41:47,732 Speaker 2: dollars per charter. 875 00:41:47,893 --> 00:41:50,413 Speaker 10: The whole thing is completely nuts and has been happening, 876 00:41:50,493 --> 00:41:53,853 Speaker 10: and apparently like underneath everyone's noses, no one's even really 877 00:41:53,933 --> 00:41:56,413 Speaker 10: fully aware of it, but now that they are, looks 878 00:41:56,413 --> 00:41:57,613 Speaker 10: like they're going to crack down on it, and you 879 00:41:57,653 --> 00:41:58,653 Speaker 10: can see for good reason. 880 00:41:59,733 --> 00:42:03,853 Speaker 3: So incredibly crazy story, but a very very interesting one. 881 00:42:04,013 --> 00:42:07,693 Speaker 3: The idea of being a surrogate in another country like 882 00:42:07,773 --> 00:42:11,693 Speaker 3: America and being paid very handsomely for it two hundred 883 00:42:11,693 --> 00:42:14,853 Speaker 3: thousand dollars plus you were, so I should say, yeah, 884 00:42:17,853 --> 00:42:18,813 Speaker 3: it's an interesting one. 885 00:42:19,373 --> 00:42:21,973 Speaker 2: So someone wants two hundred thousand dollars, can you blame 886 00:42:22,053 --> 00:42:26,213 Speaker 2: them for for birthing a baby? If someone wants it. 887 00:42:26,613 --> 00:42:30,693 Speaker 2: I mean, these Chinese billionaires, they seem to be running 888 00:42:31,013 --> 00:42:34,533 Speaker 2: somewhat of a for want a bit of word baby 889 00:42:34,613 --> 00:42:38,013 Speaker 2: farming situation. So there is a weird sort of ethical 890 00:42:38,093 --> 00:42:40,133 Speaker 2: part to it that you know, I can't quite give 891 00:42:40,173 --> 00:42:41,933 Speaker 2: my head around it. Why I find it so ecky 892 00:42:42,573 --> 00:42:46,693 Speaker 2: because if they can support them and their nannies that 893 00:42:46,853 --> 00:42:50,693 Speaker 2: bring them up are nice, then you know, maybe they 894 00:42:50,733 --> 00:42:53,333 Speaker 2: can have a great life, right, yeah, if the billionaires 895 00:42:53,333 --> 00:42:55,253 Speaker 2: are going to look after them. But I mean that 896 00:42:55,493 --> 00:42:57,613 Speaker 2: billionaire is saying that he only wanted sons is an 897 00:42:57,653 --> 00:43:01,133 Speaker 2: interesting one, isn't it. Yeah, So, I mean that's caused 898 00:43:01,133 --> 00:43:03,493 Speaker 2: to all kinds of problems in China, hasn't it. It 899 00:43:03,573 --> 00:43:08,853 Speaker 2: has with the one baby rules laws that led to 900 00:43:09,813 --> 00:43:13,213 Speaker 2: just people getting aboarding a lot of females basically exactly. 901 00:43:13,613 --> 00:43:16,573 Speaker 3: So his head's up to one hundred children through this 902 00:43:16,693 --> 00:43:19,213 Speaker 3: particular system. So it does raise a lot of ethical 903 00:43:19,253 --> 00:43:21,093 Speaker 3: concerns there. I mean, if he wants only boys, what 904 00:43:21,173 --> 00:43:23,373 Speaker 3: happens if there's some girls that are popped out by 905 00:43:23,453 --> 00:43:25,893 Speaker 3: these surrogates so they raise them themselves. Maybe that's part 906 00:43:25,933 --> 00:43:28,333 Speaker 3: of the two hundred thousand dollars. But also if he 907 00:43:28,413 --> 00:43:30,652 Speaker 3: wants someone to take over the family business and he's 908 00:43:30,693 --> 00:43:33,373 Speaker 3: got one hundred potential here is lined up, so. 909 00:43:33,573 --> 00:43:36,333 Speaker 2: One one lucky, it's going to be succession on steroids, 910 00:43:36,333 --> 00:43:36,893 Speaker 2: isn't it is? 911 00:43:37,133 --> 00:43:39,493 Speaker 3: Yeah, what happens the other ninety nine if they don't 912 00:43:39,533 --> 00:43:40,453 Speaker 3: get the top job. 913 00:43:40,813 --> 00:43:43,652 Speaker 2: But I mean if he guarantees to look after them 914 00:43:43,693 --> 00:43:46,413 Speaker 2: for their whole life, you know, if there's some I 915 00:43:46,493 --> 00:43:49,093 Speaker 2: mean I don't know how you enforce that, but I 916 00:43:49,133 --> 00:43:51,173 Speaker 2: mean you wouldn't. You wouldn't be spreading a lot of 917 00:43:51,253 --> 00:43:54,453 Speaker 2: fatherly love around all two hundred with you? No, I mean, 918 00:43:54,573 --> 00:43:57,533 Speaker 2: my parents struggled to remember the names of myself and 919 00:43:58,253 --> 00:43:59,293 Speaker 2: my three sisters. 920 00:43:59,413 --> 00:44:02,053 Speaker 3: Yeah, so two hundred two hundred it's going to be 921 00:44:02,093 --> 00:44:03,133 Speaker 3: a hell of a memory. 922 00:44:03,253 --> 00:44:04,893 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's going to be tough. But you know, 923 00:44:06,213 --> 00:44:09,053 Speaker 2: as we keep hearing, the biggest threat to humanity at 924 00:44:09,053 --> 00:44:12,172 Speaker 2: the moment is population decline. So if some billionaire wants 925 00:44:12,213 --> 00:44:14,453 Speaker 2: to throw an extra two hundred in the mix, then 926 00:44:14,813 --> 00:44:15,973 Speaker 2: maybe he's helping us all out. 927 00:44:16,053 --> 00:44:17,893 Speaker 3: Yeah, what do you say, Oh, eight one hundred eighty 928 00:44:18,093 --> 00:44:21,293 Speaker 3: ten eighty, do you see some solid ethical concerns here? 929 00:44:21,773 --> 00:44:23,933 Speaker 3: And does it feel a bit icky to accept the 930 00:44:24,053 --> 00:44:25,933 Speaker 3: likes of two hundred thousand dollars to be a surrogate? 931 00:44:26,293 --> 00:44:29,533 Speaker 2: But also let's bring it back to New Zealand, where 932 00:44:29,613 --> 00:44:32,732 Speaker 2: I don't think there are any billionaires farming two hundred kids. 933 00:44:33,053 --> 00:44:35,573 Speaker 2: I don't think that's happening here, not that we know 934 00:44:35,653 --> 00:44:40,293 Speaker 2: of yet. But surrogacy in New Zealand it's an interesting thing. 935 00:44:40,333 --> 00:44:44,293 Speaker 2: There's a lot of laws protecting surrogate mothers in New 936 00:44:44,413 --> 00:44:47,813 Speaker 2: Zealand's Yes, you know, at birth, the legal parent of 937 00:44:47,853 --> 00:44:50,413 Speaker 2: a child born vice surrogancy, they don't have to give 938 00:44:50,453 --> 00:44:52,453 Speaker 2: the child up. So if you've gone into a deal 939 00:44:52,493 --> 00:44:56,252 Speaker 2: with a person when the baby's born. There's no contract there, 940 00:44:56,453 --> 00:45:00,453 Speaker 2: you know that contract, that plan can be broken and 941 00:45:00,613 --> 00:45:02,853 Speaker 2: the mother can choose to keep the child right. Yes, 942 00:45:03,013 --> 00:45:05,413 Speaker 2: so it's a very very complicated thing. So if you've 943 00:45:05,413 --> 00:45:09,893 Speaker 2: been successfully involved in surrogacy or unsuccessfully, would love to 944 00:45:09,933 --> 00:45:11,853 Speaker 2: talk about it and generally what do you think about this? 945 00:45:12,773 --> 00:45:13,893 Speaker 2: These two hundred. 946 00:45:13,893 --> 00:45:18,453 Speaker 3: Babies, fascinating story.

It has quarter past two. 954 00:45:37,253 --> 00:45:39,732 Speaker 3: So we're talking about surrogacy on the back of quite 955 00:45:39,813 --> 00:45:43,053 Speaker 3: an unusual and crazy story out of the US where 956 00:45:43,293 --> 00:45:47,293 Speaker 3: it appears there are Chinese elites and billionaires who are 957 00:45:47,333 --> 00:45:51,853 Speaker 3: paying big money to have surrogates in America and mostly 958 00:45:51,933 --> 00:45:55,853 Speaker 3: were the one that was uncovered wants mostly boys. 959 00:45:56,333 --> 00:45:59,772 Speaker 2: Yeah, so commercial surrogacy is legal in New Zealand. Only 960 00:45:59,933 --> 00:46:06,172 Speaker 2: altruistic altruistics surrogacy is permitted. This is according to Aranga tanmariki. 961 00:46:06,973 --> 00:46:10,493 Speaker 2: The surrogate can best for reasonable expenses like medical costs, 962 00:46:10,493 --> 00:46:13,692 Speaker 2: but cannot receive payment for carrying the child. I mean 963 00:46:14,453 --> 00:46:20,212 Speaker 2: reasonable expenses is that a Eston Martin to drive around 964 00:46:20,293 --> 00:46:22,613 Speaker 2: and while you're pregnant? I mean can you how far 965 00:46:22,693 --> 00:46:26,693 Speaker 2: can you sweeten the deal? What are reasonable expenses? But 966 00:46:26,813 --> 00:46:28,613 Speaker 2: the interesting thing is, so if you look at the 967 00:46:28,653 --> 00:46:31,172 Speaker 2: situation in the United States with this billionaire paying two 968 00:46:31,253 --> 00:46:37,573 Speaker 2: hundred thousand American per sarroger at birth, and if a 969 00:46:37,613 --> 00:46:41,053 Speaker 2: New Zealand resident commissioned sagus overseas, New Zealand law still applies. 970 00:46:41,133 --> 00:46:44,253 Speaker 2: Returning the child home, the surrogate and her partner are 971 00:46:44,293 --> 00:46:47,013 Speaker 2: treated as legal parents at birth under New Zealand law. 972 00:46:47,373 --> 00:46:49,373 Speaker 2: So even if you go over to the States and 973 00:46:49,733 --> 00:46:53,733 Speaker 2: cough up two hundred grand, New Zealand law still applies. 974 00:46:53,933 --> 00:46:56,533 Speaker 2: Interesting the intending parents must adopt the child in New 975 00:46:56,613 --> 00:46:59,813 Speaker 2: Zealand to gain legal parenthood, and the child may need 976 00:46:59,853 --> 00:47:02,813 Speaker 2: a visa before entering New Zealand. Immigration officials decide this 977 00:47:02,933 --> 00:47:07,933 Speaker 2: on a case by case basis. So it's pretty interesting, 978 00:47:07,973 --> 00:47:08,253 Speaker 2: isn't it. 979 00:47:08,333 --> 00:47:11,053 Speaker 3: It's complex, very complex. I eight one hundred eighty ten eighty. 980 00:47:11,173 --> 00:47:14,253 Speaker 3: If you have been involved with surrogacy in New Zealand, 981 00:47:15,293 --> 00:47:17,733 Speaker 3: or you needed a surrogant to have a child yourself 982 00:47:17,773 --> 00:47:19,413 Speaker 3: loved to hear from you.

So once you decided to go 1132 00:54:26,453 --> 00:54:30,573 Speaker 2: the surrogacy surrogacy path, how did you approach that dominique? 1133 00:54:32,413 --> 00:54:37,293 Speaker 21: So in New Zealand, it's quite a complex procedure. It's 1134 00:54:37,373 --> 00:54:39,853 Speaker 21: not something we could just decide. We had to be 1135 00:54:40,653 --> 00:54:46,573 Speaker 21: I guess offered by our medical practitioners. Our like fertility 1136 00:54:46,653 --> 00:54:50,173 Speaker 21: doctors recommended that it might be the only way that 1137 00:54:50,293 --> 00:54:53,413 Speaker 21: it would sort of happen for us. And so you 1138 00:54:53,533 --> 00:54:56,253 Speaker 21: go in front of the New Zealand Ethics Committee to 1139 00:54:56,333 --> 00:55:00,293 Speaker 21: get approval, You've got to have a bit of a 1140 00:55:00,573 --> 00:55:05,493 Speaker 21: history with a fertility clinic, of not being able to 1141 00:55:06,573 --> 00:55:10,333 Speaker 21: get pregnant or you know IBF not working, which we had, 1142 00:55:11,373 --> 00:55:17,573 Speaker 21: and so once we offered that as an option in 1143 00:55:17,653 --> 00:55:20,973 Speaker 21: New Zealand, it's it's completely altruistic. So we couldn't go 1144 00:55:21,093 --> 00:55:24,493 Speaker 21: to like an agency how they've got in America and 1145 00:55:24,813 --> 00:55:29,013 Speaker 21: offer to pay someone. So I put it on our 1146 00:55:29,853 --> 00:55:33,652 Speaker 21: social media and an old friend of mine reached out. 1147 00:55:34,573 --> 00:55:36,333 Speaker 21: We have been back. We had lots of people reaching 1148 00:55:36,373 --> 00:55:40,573 Speaker 21: out that ultimately went with an old friend, which was 1149 00:55:40,853 --> 00:55:45,293 Speaker 21: amazing because the other problem with the law in New 1150 00:55:45,373 --> 00:55:50,613 Speaker 21: Zealand is that the birth mother is seen as the 1151 00:55:51,893 --> 00:55:56,773 Speaker 21: legal parent and the birth mother has up until a 1152 00:55:56,933 --> 00:56:00,053 Speaker 21: year after your child is born to change their mind 1153 00:56:01,533 --> 00:56:04,333 Speaker 21: because we have to adopt our baby once she's born. 1154 00:56:05,533 --> 00:56:08,053 Speaker 21: And so yeah, a little bit scary if you if 1155 00:56:08,093 --> 00:56:10,893 Speaker 21: you get someone that does change their mind, they've got 1156 00:56:10,973 --> 00:56:13,173 Speaker 21: a whole year to decide that. 1157 00:56:14,293 --> 00:56:18,093 Speaker 2: What was the motivation for the old friend to do 1158 00:56:18,213 --> 00:56:20,533 Speaker 2: the surrogacy, because you know, as you were saying, for 1159 00:56:20,653 --> 00:56:23,373 Speaker 2: it's not a it can't be a commercial venture here 1160 00:56:23,413 --> 00:56:25,292 Speaker 2: in New Zealand, it has to be altruistic. 1161 00:56:26,093 --> 00:56:30,293 Speaker 21: From the stargate mother, Yeah, look, she is just one 1162 00:56:30,373 --> 00:56:32,973 Speaker 21: of those people that in fact, when I posted on 1163 00:56:33,093 --> 00:56:35,333 Speaker 21: social media. I knew that she would be someone that 1164 00:56:35,373 --> 00:56:39,773 Speaker 21: would offer, because that's just so in her nature. And 1165 00:56:40,453 --> 00:56:44,293 Speaker 21: I mean, I can't understand how anyone, you know, could 1166 00:56:44,333 --> 00:56:47,333 Speaker 21: possibly want to give, Like it's just the biggest gift 1167 00:56:47,373 --> 00:56:49,653 Speaker 21: that you could give someone. And I think that is 1168 00:56:49,733 --> 00:56:52,693 Speaker 21: exactly the reason why she would you want to do it. 1169 00:56:52,853 --> 00:56:56,493 Speaker 21: She's got two little boys of her own, and you know, 1170 00:56:56,533 --> 00:56:59,893 Speaker 21: I just said it's something that she had thought about previously, 1171 00:57:01,413 --> 00:57:05,493 Speaker 21: and just like, yeah, just a very very good, amazing 1172 00:57:05,693 --> 00:57:06,813 Speaker 21: kind person. 1173 00:57:06,933 --> 00:57:10,692 Speaker 3: What a wonderful person. So you mentioned before you had 1174 00:57:11,013 --> 00:57:14,533 Speaker 3: the five years of IVF and unfortunately unsuccessful. So the 1175 00:57:14,613 --> 00:57:18,333 Speaker 3: conversation you and your partner had when you were looking 1176 00:57:18,413 --> 00:57:21,653 Speaker 3: at what next, How how did that journey go when 1177 00:57:21,693 --> 00:57:25,013 Speaker 3: you were thinking about surrogacy and looking further into it. 1178 00:57:27,693 --> 00:57:31,573 Speaker 21: It was I think something neither of us had ever 1179 00:57:31,933 --> 00:57:34,853 Speaker 21: really thought we would be those people that were going 1180 00:57:34,893 --> 00:57:39,293 Speaker 21: down this you know road. It was a huge relief 1181 00:57:39,653 --> 00:57:44,333 Speaker 21: when the doctor suggested that we looked down this pass, 1182 00:57:45,493 --> 00:57:49,053 Speaker 21: because you know, after like several rounds and so many failures, 1183 00:57:49,293 --> 00:57:52,373 Speaker 21: you just it does start to really like eat away 1184 00:57:52,373 --> 00:57:56,053 Speaker 21: at you. So yeah, we were we were both relieved 1185 00:57:56,253 --> 00:58:00,693 Speaker 21: and thankfully My partner was also very open to the 1186 00:58:00,813 --> 00:58:04,773 Speaker 21: idea of surrogacy. You know, it's it's our DNA, so 1187 00:58:04,973 --> 00:58:09,413 Speaker 21: it's it's still our child, you know, biologically it's still 1188 00:58:09,453 --> 00:58:11,893 Speaker 21: our child, I think, which was really important for us. 1189 00:58:12,773 --> 00:58:17,493 Speaker 21: You know, I know some people open to adoption that 1190 00:58:17,813 --> 00:58:21,653 Speaker 21: wasn't I mean, I hadn't been considered at that point. 1191 00:58:21,773 --> 00:58:24,293 Speaker 18: So yeah, for us, I think it was really important 1192 00:58:24,453 --> 00:58:26,573 Speaker 18: having a child that was our own DNA. 1193 00:58:26,813 --> 00:58:26,973 Speaker 4: You know. 1194 00:58:28,053 --> 00:58:31,373 Speaker 2: Now, I was mentioned before that commercial surrogacy is illegal 1195 00:58:31,453 --> 00:58:34,573 Speaker 2: in New Zealand, but you are allowed to reimburse the 1196 00:58:34,693 --> 00:58:40,333 Speaker 2: surrogate reasonable expenses. You must feel, you know, the weight 1197 00:58:40,573 --> 00:58:43,293 Speaker 2: of wanting to look after this old friend that's doing 1198 00:58:43,373 --> 00:58:46,333 Speaker 2: this for you, So how are you supporting them in 1199 00:58:46,413 --> 00:58:48,293 Speaker 2: a non commercial way? Not paying them, but how are 1200 00:58:48,333 --> 00:58:51,333 Speaker 2: you supporting them with their needs and just day to day? 1201 00:58:53,733 --> 00:58:56,533 Speaker 21: Honestly I would, I would happily buy her anything she 1202 00:58:56,693 --> 00:58:59,413 Speaker 21: asked for, but she again, she's not the kind of 1203 00:58:59,453 --> 00:59:02,093 Speaker 21: person that is going to do that. That just is 1204 00:59:02,173 --> 00:59:06,173 Speaker 21: so against every bit of who she is. But like 1205 00:59:06,293 --> 00:59:10,613 Speaker 21: I said, she does have two little boys, which very 1206 00:59:12,173 --> 00:59:16,693 Speaker 21: very big into dirt bikes motorcycles, so they've got to 1207 00:59:16,853 --> 00:59:20,853 Speaker 21: they've got two dirt bikes coming for Christmas from Santa 1208 00:59:21,053 --> 00:59:24,813 Speaker 21: Yeah one.

Yeah? 1247 01:01:32,773 --> 01:01:34,693 Speaker 21: They call it an embryo. I once to get to 1248 01:01:34,813 --> 01:01:35,533 Speaker 21: that stage. 1249 01:01:36,773 --> 01:01:40,173 Speaker 2: A long time ago. 1250 01:01:40,373 --> 01:01:43,813 Speaker 18: Okay, yeah, no no, so yeah, it is our embryo 1251 01:01:44,693 --> 01:01:46,973 Speaker 18: which was transferred yes months ago. 1252 01:01:47,613 --> 01:01:51,693 Speaker 2: So, Dominique, have you have you talked about the birthday? 1253 01:01:52,253 --> 01:01:56,253 Speaker 2: And you know and and and who I guess you 1254 01:01:56,333 --> 01:02:02,413 Speaker 2: know it takes your daughter home after the birth? How 1255 01:02:02,453 --> 01:02:03,133 Speaker 2: that's going to run? 1256 01:02:05,093 --> 01:02:08,133 Speaker 21: So again in New Zealand, you've got a social worker 1257 01:02:08,413 --> 01:02:11,933 Speaker 21: gets assigned to you the minute you start this process, 1258 01:02:13,133 --> 01:02:15,653 Speaker 21: and we have to ring that social worker the minute 1259 01:02:16,493 --> 01:02:21,533 Speaker 21: my surrogate goes into labor, and they basically prepare start 1260 01:02:21,613 --> 01:02:24,653 Speaker 21: to prepare the documents that will allow you to take 1261 01:02:25,493 --> 01:02:32,213 Speaker 21: your child home straight after birth. So they they you're 1262 01:02:32,253 --> 01:02:35,573 Speaker 21: not legally adopting the child that day. That's a six 1263 01:02:35,693 --> 01:02:39,373 Speaker 21: month process that happens six months after birth. 1264 01:02:39,533 --> 01:02:43,173 Speaker 18: But you do get to take your baby home as 1265 01:02:43,213 --> 01:02:46,613 Speaker 18: a I think it's under like a legal guardianship kind 1266 01:02:46,653 --> 01:02:48,213 Speaker 18: of situation. 1267 01:02:49,013 --> 01:02:52,253 Speaker 2: So you and your husband will be there for the birth. 1268 01:02:52,693 --> 01:02:54,893 Speaker 2: You're there were well we will. 1269 01:02:55,493 --> 01:02:58,013 Speaker 3: So I mean it's to my years, it sounds like 1270 01:02:58,093 --> 01:03:00,533 Speaker 3: quite a daunting thing that you've gone through, a beautiful thing, 1271 01:03:00,573 --> 01:03:03,893 Speaker 3: but adorting thing. And you mentioned your doctor suggested it 1272 01:03:04,013 --> 01:03:08,173 Speaker 3: as a potential. Are there organizations processes in place to 1273 01:03:08,453 --> 01:03:10,613 Speaker 3: guide you through what you need to do to make 1274 01:03:10,693 --> 01:03:12,453 Speaker 3: it as easy as possible. 1275 01:03:14,573 --> 01:03:17,653 Speaker 21: Not not really there. So once you kind of get 1276 01:03:17,773 --> 01:03:20,053 Speaker 21: told that this could be an option for you, they 1277 01:03:20,373 --> 01:03:25,853 Speaker 21: handed you like a document stating the steps of like 1278 01:03:26,413 --> 01:03:30,133 Speaker 21: where to next, and then it's on you to find 1279 01:03:30,293 --> 01:03:34,933 Speaker 21: a surrogate, to make contact with all the right people, lawyers, 1280 01:03:35,013 --> 01:03:38,693 Speaker 21: social workers. There isn't an agency who sort of manages 1281 01:03:38,733 --> 01:03:43,333 Speaker 21: it all for you. And so through this process I 1282 01:03:44,133 --> 01:03:46,413 Speaker 21: met several other girls, you. 1283 01:03:46,453 --> 01:03:51,053 Speaker 18: Know, women families that have been through similar, you know. 1284 01:03:52,173 --> 01:03:57,133 Speaker 21: A similar process and began to sort of tack off 1285 01:03:57,213 --> 01:03:59,653 Speaker 21: the boxes one by one of you know, finding a 1286 01:03:59,733 --> 01:04:03,013 Speaker 21: social worker, finding a lawyer for myself, finding a lawyer 1287 01:04:03,053 --> 01:04:07,413 Speaker 21: for our surrogate, having to go through the IVF process again. 1288 01:04:08,813 --> 01:04:11,693 Speaker 21: So you know, it took me about a year all 1289 01:04:11,813 --> 01:04:17,373 Speaker 21: up working my way through that process. And then again 1290 01:04:17,453 --> 01:04:21,013 Speaker 21: you have to put together a large amount of information 1291 01:04:21,293 --> 01:04:26,373 Speaker 21: to get approval by the New Zealand Ethics Committee. And 1292 01:04:27,453 --> 01:04:30,213 Speaker 21: one of the hardest parts about surrogacy and New Zealand 1293 01:04:30,653 --> 01:04:32,093 Speaker 21: is obviously finding the surrogate. 1294 01:04:32,573 --> 01:04:35,053 Speaker 18: So unless you know someone. 1295 01:04:34,813 --> 01:04:39,453 Speaker 21: Who has sort of offered, and it's not a conversation that's. 1296 01:04:39,293 --> 01:04:42,733 Speaker 18: Often had, you know, around a drink or over the 1297 01:04:42,813 --> 01:04:43,413 Speaker 18: dinner table. 1298 01:04:44,413 --> 01:04:47,013 Speaker 21: It's really tricky and hence the. 1299 01:04:47,093 --> 01:04:49,533 Speaker 18: Need for us to put it on social media. You know, 1300 01:04:49,653 --> 01:04:50,893 Speaker 18: we don't really know where to. 1301 01:04:50,933 --> 01:04:54,773 Speaker 21: Start that conversation. When we posted it, we had an 1302 01:04:55,093 --> 01:04:59,973 Speaker 21: overwhelming response from like our community of people I guess 1303 01:05:00,053 --> 01:05:05,613 Speaker 21: around us. I think maybe like sixteen people responded with 1304 01:05:05,813 --> 01:05:10,413 Speaker 21: genuine interest in helping us, which was mind blowing. Yeah, 1305 01:05:10,573 --> 01:05:13,653 Speaker 21: people shared our you know, our Instagram post over and 1306 01:05:13,773 --> 01:05:16,493 Speaker 21: over again, and you know, thousands of people had seen it, 1307 01:05:16,813 --> 01:05:19,973 Speaker 21: seen it, and I began sort of working my way 1308 01:05:20,093 --> 01:05:23,573 Speaker 21: through the messages and then then you know, my friend, 1309 01:05:23,653 --> 01:05:26,693 Speaker 21: my old friend's name popped up, and that was very 1310 01:05:26,813 --> 01:05:33,853 Speaker 21: reassuring because even before so once you start, you get 1311 01:05:33,933 --> 01:05:36,613 Speaker 21: told that you have to know someone for at least 1312 01:05:36,653 --> 01:05:39,933 Speaker 21: six months. So if someone had reached out and it 1313 01:05:40,013 --> 01:05:43,013 Speaker 21: wasn't someone I knew, I needed to know them for 1314 01:05:43,093 --> 01:05:47,213 Speaker 21: six months before I could even sort of start the conversation, 1315 01:05:47,573 --> 01:05:50,253 Speaker 21: which six months is not not a hell of a 1316 01:05:50,293 --> 01:05:53,733 Speaker 21: lot of time to trust somebody with with that, you know, 1317 01:05:53,933 --> 01:05:57,293 Speaker 21: so we were really hopeful that someone we knew already 1318 01:05:57,373 --> 01:05:59,933 Speaker 21: would reach out, which ended up happening. 1319 01:06:00,773 --> 01:06:03,013 Speaker 2: Dominic, thank you so much for talking to us today 1320 01:06:03,013 --> 01:06:06,933 Speaker 2: and thank you being for being so open. It's really 1321 01:06:07,053 --> 01:06:10,653 Speaker 2: really interesting. Now you're in the situation where you and 1322 01:06:10,853 --> 01:06:13,293 Speaker 2: your partner are going to be the biological parents. So 1323 01:06:13,413 --> 01:06:17,133 Speaker 2: it's it's very different from adoption and how things go forward. 1324 01:06:17,653 --> 01:06:19,773 Speaker 2: But but what kind of relationship do you see the 1325 01:06:19,893 --> 01:06:23,893 Speaker 2: surrogate mother having with your with your daughter going forward? 1326 01:06:24,013 --> 01:06:30,173 Speaker 21: If any, it's it's definitely will be part of her story. 1327 01:06:31,173 --> 01:06:36,853 Speaker 18: And again it's something that then the the counselors that 1328 01:06:36,933 --> 01:06:37,613 Speaker 18: we work through. 1329 01:06:38,053 --> 01:06:42,733 Speaker 21: Work with, they tell you that it has to be 1330 01:06:43,373 --> 01:06:45,853 Speaker 21: known to that child, like every child has a right 1331 01:06:46,093 --> 01:06:48,533 Speaker 21: to know how they came into this world. So by 1332 01:06:48,613 --> 01:06:53,653 Speaker 21: New Zealand's law, it is actually on us to all 1333 01:06:54,613 --> 01:06:57,573 Speaker 21: to share the information. It's not information we can withhold. 1334 01:06:58,533 --> 01:07:01,493 Speaker 21: So for us, I guess it will just be it 1335 01:07:01,573 --> 01:07:03,813 Speaker 21: will just be part of her story of how you know, 1336 01:07:04,013 --> 01:07:07,293 Speaker 21: she came to be. I mean, she is an old 1337 01:07:07,373 --> 01:07:10,973 Speaker 21: friend of mine, so I've always had a friendship with her. 1338 01:07:11,093 --> 01:07:12,813 Speaker 21: It's not like that, you know. 1339 01:07:13,013 --> 01:07:15,893 Speaker 2: Now, It's not going to disappear just because yeah. 1340 01:07:16,013 --> 01:07:19,573 Speaker 21: Yeah, yeah, so so it's nice. It'll just be continued, 1341 01:07:19,653 --> 01:07:23,093 Speaker 21: you know, and probably change slightly. 1342 01:07:24,533 --> 01:07:27,653 Speaker 18: You know, we'll probably see him more than I did previously. 1343 01:07:28,213 --> 01:07:30,293 Speaker 2: And so you say it's going to be part of 1344 01:07:30,373 --> 01:07:34,013 Speaker 2: your daughter's story, When will let stories start? If you 1345 01:07:34,093 --> 01:07:34,573 Speaker 2: know what I mean. 1346 01:07:36,053 --> 01:07:40,053 Speaker 21: They sort of advise you that the minute your child 1347 01:07:40,253 --> 01:07:44,093 Speaker 21: starts asking, that's that's the conversation. And there's lots of 1348 01:07:44,213 --> 01:07:47,533 Speaker 21: resources they've given us, like really nice books for children, 1349 01:07:48,973 --> 01:07:51,333 Speaker 21: you know, because again, like my surrogate, she's got two 1350 01:07:51,413 --> 01:07:54,093 Speaker 21: little kids who are going to be asking, you know, 1351 01:07:54,293 --> 01:07:58,533 Speaker 21: where this baby is going when the baby arrives and 1352 01:07:58,573 --> 01:08:01,293 Speaker 21: then doesn't come home, you know, So there's there's books 1353 01:08:01,373 --> 01:08:05,133 Speaker 21: around that both for her kids to sort of have 1354 01:08:05,253 --> 01:08:09,053 Speaker 21: an understanding and make the full circle connect, you know, 1355 01:08:09,173 --> 01:08:10,653 Speaker 21: because there are only like six. 1356 01:08:10,533 --> 01:08:13,373 Speaker 2: And four Yeah, oh yes, right, I see. 1357 01:08:14,573 --> 01:08:15,653 Speaker 19: And so. 1358 01:08:17,253 --> 01:08:21,572 Speaker 2: Are they any concerns from you that you know, she's 1359 01:08:21,613 --> 01:08:25,053 Speaker 2: had two boys now having a girl, you know, is 1360 01:08:25,093 --> 01:08:28,532 Speaker 2: there any concerns that you know what I'm asking? 1361 01:08:29,053 --> 01:08:31,213 Speaker 21: Look, I do know what you're asking. 1362 01:08:31,333 --> 01:08:31,572 Speaker 18: I do. 1363 01:08:33,053 --> 01:08:37,093 Speaker 21: No, there are not. Maybe maybe if I didn't know her, 1364 01:08:37,452 --> 01:08:40,812 Speaker 21: like sure, that would cross your mind. As her husband 1365 01:08:40,893 --> 01:08:43,452 Speaker 21: said to my husband, you know, like you one thousand 1366 01:08:43,492 --> 01:08:45,412 Speaker 21: percent need to pick up this baby.

You know, and after this, ivy happens 1407 01:10:37,213 --> 01:10:39,572 Speaker 22: a few times and it felt like a you know, 1408 01:10:40,333 --> 01:10:42,892 Speaker 22: just felt like we were losing the baby. Retirement didn't work, 1409 01:10:42,973 --> 01:10:44,812 Speaker 22: and that was really really hard on my wife. And 1410 01:10:44,893 --> 01:10:46,933 Speaker 22: we went back to the doctor till six He is 1411 01:10:47,213 --> 01:10:49,572 Speaker 22: the worst news and he said, why don't you try 1412 01:10:49,612 --> 01:10:52,772 Speaker 22: a sarrogon eggs and we went, well, what can you 1413 01:10:52,893 --> 01:10:55,013 Speaker 22: do that?

It was done at about five 1419 01:11:09,372 --> 01:11:13,213 Speaker 22: or six thousand dollars to the cost to make sure 1420 01:11:13,293 --> 01:11:16,253 Speaker 22: that the person donating on my book bag on it. 1421 01:11:16,333 --> 01:11:21,893 Speaker 22: Now it's been a while, but the legal process to 1422 01:11:21,973 --> 01:11:24,933 Speaker 22: make sure that the person donating you can't come and 1423 01:11:25,013 --> 01:11:26,692 Speaker 22: claim that they bee the laces that were at the 1424 01:11:26,853 --> 01:11:30,772 Speaker 22: stage and all that sort of it's quite complicated, right. 1425 01:11:33,053 --> 01:11:33,333 Speaker 18: I was. 1426 01:11:34,572 --> 01:11:37,772 Speaker 22: I didn't really like the idea, right, you're wrongly just 1427 01:11:37,893 --> 01:11:42,772 Speaker 22: because we just said, come from who was it? What's 1428 01:11:42,853 --> 01:11:44,852 Speaker 22: going on? And we were talking to the family about it, 1429 01:11:44,973 --> 01:11:48,053 Speaker 22: and we're very lucky my wife's sister pops the one 1430 01:11:48,093 --> 01:11:51,532 Speaker 22: and I don't know yet when we went on, are 1431 01:11:51,532 --> 01:11:53,612 Speaker 22: you going to do it for us? So sure enough 1432 01:11:53,812 --> 01:11:56,013 Speaker 22: we went back to the doctor and because it was 1433 01:11:56,093 --> 01:11:58,053 Speaker 22: his sister, we didn't have to do any of the 1434 01:11:58,173 --> 01:12:01,852 Speaker 22: legal stuff and it made the process so much simpler. 1435 01:12:02,732 --> 01:12:05,572 Speaker 22: So long story short, we've now got a beautiful little 1436 01:12:05,612 --> 01:12:09,012 Speaker 22: four year old. This is this is a more obviously 1437 01:12:09,053 --> 01:12:13,372 Speaker 22: four years ago now, and it was just just because 1438 01:12:13,412 --> 01:12:18,372 Speaker 22: I'd already had two boys. It wasn't wasn't everything for me, 1439 01:12:18,532 --> 01:12:20,652 Speaker 22: but it was everything to my wife. You just couldn't 1440 01:12:20,692 --> 01:12:24,053 Speaker 22: have children at all, you know. So we're just eternally 1441 01:12:24,133 --> 01:12:28,253 Speaker 22: grateful to the scientist comes up with all these things. 1442 01:12:28,293 --> 01:12:29,933 Speaker 22: That's quite an amazing process, you know. 1443 01:12:30,652 --> 01:12:34,412 Speaker 2: Yeah, or congratulations, Bill, I'm so glad that that worked 1444 01:12:34,412 --> 01:12:37,772 Speaker 2: out for you. But so so why is it that 1445 01:12:37,893 --> 01:12:40,692 Speaker 2: if it's within the family, it's a sister, that that 1446 01:12:40,812 --> 01:12:44,333 Speaker 2: that that all all that other complications don't come into it. 1447 01:12:44,532 --> 01:12:47,652 Speaker 19: As I still haven't got to the bottom of that now. 1448 01:12:47,853 --> 01:12:50,013 Speaker 22: I think it's because it's in the family and you 1449 01:12:50,133 --> 01:12:52,213 Speaker 22: sort of just expect that you can work at it yourself. 1450 01:12:52,452 --> 01:12:55,013 Speaker 22: I think it's just not some random random stranger that just. 1451 01:12:55,093 --> 01:12:56,532 Speaker 7: Turns up on your door set one day. 1452 01:12:57,093 --> 01:12:59,852 Speaker 22: I think that's the difference. The other thing, too, is 1453 01:13:00,013 --> 01:13:03,093 Speaker 22: a little girl, because because my wife and who just 1454 01:13:03,133 --> 01:13:06,412 Speaker 22: a look alike? Our little girl looks like my wife. 1455 01:13:07,692 --> 01:13:09,972 Speaker 3: It's just gonna what's that, Bill, Because that when your sister, 1456 01:13:10,253 --> 01:13:12,972 Speaker 3: you know, said hey, I can help out here, which 1457 01:13:13,013 --> 01:13:15,452 Speaker 3: is a wonderful thing for you guys.

Yeah, I feel 1952 01:35:54,612 --> 01:35:56,572 Speaker 2: like I was on something that was kind of TV. 1953 01:35:56,853 --> 01:35:59,532 Speaker 2: Like with you this year they paid to talk podcast. 1954 01:35:59,612 --> 01:36:00,173 Speaker 2: You're filming that? 1955 01:36:01,293 --> 01:36:03,133 Speaker 9: Yeah, Well, I mean a lot of the podcast of 1956 01:36:03,213 --> 01:36:05,532 Speaker 9: films nowadays, a lot of the radio shows of films. 1957 01:36:05,612 --> 01:36:08,693 Speaker 9: So does that make a radio show that's filmed aodcast 1958 01:36:08,732 --> 01:36:10,852 Speaker 9: and vice versa. And I mean when I was doing radio, 1959 01:36:10,893 --> 01:36:13,092 Speaker 9: of course, a couple of years back, they started filming 1960 01:36:13,133 --> 01:36:16,532 Speaker 9: stuff then, and I was always not uncomfortable that. I 1961 01:36:16,612 --> 01:36:18,852 Speaker 9: was just thinking, well, at what point does this become 1962 01:36:19,053 --> 01:36:22,093 Speaker 9: a TV show? If you know what I mean? And 1963 01:36:22,213 --> 01:36:24,692 Speaker 9: the reason I say that, in my case, I perform 1964 01:36:25,053 --> 01:36:28,253 Speaker 9: or act slightly different. When I'm doing radio. You sit 1965 01:36:28,372 --> 01:36:31,932 Speaker 9: back and my and you it's a little bit more reactive. 1966 01:36:31,973 --> 01:36:35,053 Speaker 9: I suppose with TV I'm a little bit more I 1967 01:36:35,133 --> 01:36:39,173 Speaker 9: would taken trives, but yep, you're sort of sort of 1968 01:36:39,213 --> 01:36:41,412 Speaker 9: more in control of it, I think, and I like 1969 01:36:41,492 --> 01:36:42,933 Speaker 9: to think. I like to know what I'm doing a 1970 01:36:43,253 --> 01:36:46,213 Speaker 9: bit more. And that's what I liked about radio. You 1971 01:36:46,253 --> 01:36:48,452 Speaker 9: could relax. But also, look what I liked about TV 1972 01:36:48,812 --> 01:36:52,972 Speaker 9: was you know, you're making something that you might revert 1973 01:36:53,173 --> 01:36:55,173 Speaker 9: uspose in a few years time and watch again, whereas 1974 01:36:55,213 --> 01:36:58,572 Speaker 9: a radio you know, can be as you guys know 1975 01:36:58,732 --> 01:37:01,612 Speaker 9: it's that was that show last week and you know 1976 01:37:01,853 --> 01:37:03,053 Speaker 9: it's of the day. 1977 01:37:04,213 --> 01:37:06,532 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's one of one of the worst things 1978 01:37:06,572 --> 01:37:08,572 Speaker 2: that happened to radio was when they started filming.

And I can 2162 01:44:50,812 --> 01:44:54,253 Speaker 9: actually tell you it's something menu because my Mum asked me, what. 2163 01:44:54,293 --> 01:44:54,772 Speaker 4: Would you do? 2164 01:44:54,853 --> 01:44:56,812 Speaker 9: I think we're going to do a lamb roast. Nice 2165 01:44:56,973 --> 01:44:59,652 Speaker 9: but rather than having a lamb and a ham and 2166 01:44:59,772 --> 01:45:01,253 Speaker 9: a turkey, we think we're just going to go with 2167 01:45:01,333 --> 01:45:03,932 Speaker 9: the lamb. Then I heard Dad and yelling their background 2168 01:45:04,013 --> 01:45:09,812 Speaker 9: or maybe just a barbecue. Thank you change the last minute. 2169 01:45:10,532 --> 01:45:12,532 Speaker 9: But it's going to be pretty low key, you know, 2170 01:45:12,652 --> 01:45:14,572 Speaker 9: if week and stuff, that's what up and as far 2171 01:45:14,652 --> 01:45:18,012 Speaker 9: as you know, I'll be surprised. It should be pretty basic, 2172 01:45:18,173 --> 01:45:19,252 Speaker 9: pretty basic stuff. 2173 01:45:19,372 --> 01:45:21,652 Speaker 3: That sounds like a great time. The beast and worst 2174 01:45:21,692 --> 01:45:23,532 Speaker 3: things about the feast of seasonally. 2175 01:45:24,532 --> 01:45:28,532 Speaker 9: Well, worst things are probably doing these sort of puff 2176 01:45:28,612 --> 01:45:34,053 Speaker 9: pieces on newspapers and radio and that about Christmas. No, 2177 01:45:34,213 --> 01:45:36,852 Speaker 9: actually I like Christmas. I like the whole sort of thing. 2178 01:45:36,933 --> 01:45:39,852 Speaker 9: And you know, and I lose track of days and 2179 01:45:39,933 --> 01:45:42,692 Speaker 9: twenty seven to that before Christmas. That's why it's at Christmas, 2180 01:45:42,933 --> 01:45:43,093 Speaker 9: you know. 2181 01:45:43,893 --> 01:45:44,732 Speaker 4: I like Christmas. 2182 01:45:44,933 --> 01:45:48,213 Speaker 9: I'm thinking back to the whole commercialism side of it, 2183 01:45:48,333 --> 01:45:50,652 Speaker 9: as in the last few years has started to annoy 2184 01:45:50,772 --> 01:45:53,893 Speaker 9: me a little bit. You know, you get washing, you know, 2185 01:45:53,973 --> 01:45:56,812 Speaker 9: going shopping walls, and I don't actually shop for anyone 2186 01:45:56,853 --> 01:45:59,652 Speaker 9: anymore now when i'm sort of somehow that sounds word 2187 01:45:59,732 --> 01:46:01,692 Speaker 9: down and no one seems to shop for me, So 2188 01:46:04,133 --> 01:46:06,652 Speaker 9: there's not so much of that going on. My kids, obviously, 2189 01:46:06,652 --> 01:46:08,652 Speaker 9: I'll get them something, but I think that'll be just 2190 01:46:08,692 --> 01:46:12,212 Speaker 9: the personal cash I think before they went went away. Anyway, 2191 01:46:12,893 --> 01:46:15,852 Speaker 9: we'll see about that. But the worst things I remember 2192 01:46:15,933 --> 01:46:18,012 Speaker 9: some of the worst gifts I got. So for example, 2193 01:46:18,133 --> 01:46:21,012 Speaker 9: when I was a kid, there's different times, of course, 2194 01:46:21,333 --> 01:46:24,612 Speaker 9: you know. I remember what I wanted was a brand 2195 01:46:24,612 --> 01:46:27,253 Speaker 9: new Tensby bike. You know, like a lot of kids 2196 01:46:27,293 --> 01:46:29,133 Speaker 9: when they were like eight or nine or ten were 2197 01:46:29,412 --> 01:46:32,253 Speaker 9: trying to get kind of thing. And this year I 2198 01:46:32,412 --> 01:46:34,492 Speaker 9: just got the combination lot for one, you know, you know, 2199 01:46:34,572 --> 01:46:37,253 Speaker 9: the security, the lock, and that was that was under 2200 01:46:37,253 --> 01:46:39,253 Speaker 9: the tree and I thought, wow, that's amazing. I mean, 2201 01:46:39,293 --> 01:46:42,293 Speaker 9: the bike must be outside, and it wasn't. 2202 01:46:42,293 --> 01:46:42,772 Speaker 4: It was just that. 2203 01:46:43,452 --> 01:46:46,572 Speaker 9: And all the other kids got a bike and stuff 2204 01:46:46,652 --> 01:46:48,892 Speaker 9: now were hanging out of the I'll be hanging down 2205 01:46:48,933 --> 01:46:51,812 Speaker 9: to the bike path with their bikes and I just 2206 01:46:51,893 --> 01:46:55,213 Speaker 9: be standing there with the combination chain. You know, I'm 2207 01:46:55,293 --> 01:46:59,532 Speaker 9: locking it, locking it, and I'm knocking it again. I 2208 01:46:59,572 --> 01:47:02,253 Speaker 9: remember saying to Dad, you know, that's not fair, Dad, 2209 01:47:03,893 --> 01:47:11,412 Speaker 9: and he goes, Life's not fair. So that was that 2210 01:47:11,853 --> 01:47:13,812 Speaker 9: was That gift was a lesson more. 2211 01:47:13,732 --> 01:47:14,253 Speaker 4: Than when. 2212 01:47:15,612 --> 01:47:17,932 Speaker 2: Love kids love a gift, that's a lesson. 2213 01:47:19,812 --> 01:47:22,652 Speaker 9: I don't know. I should maybe retract. My parents will 2214 01:47:22,652 --> 01:47:26,213 Speaker 9: definitely be listening to this, so no, it could be. 2215 01:47:26,572 --> 01:47:27,173 Speaker 4: It gets through it. 2216 01:47:29,253 --> 01:47:31,412 Speaker 2: It's hard to retract. It's out there, it's live now. 2217 01:47:31,973 --> 01:47:34,133 Speaker 2: It's interesting you say that about commercialism because I watched 2218 01:47:34,213 --> 01:47:37,253 Speaker 2: Charlie Brown Christmas from nineteen sixty five, You've watched on 2219 01:47:37,253 --> 01:47:40,732 Speaker 2: Apple TV, and I've always loved the music to it. 2220 01:47:41,333 --> 01:47:43,572 Speaker 2: I lostened that every year, the jazzy kind of Christmas stuff, 2221 01:47:43,812 --> 01:47:45,692 Speaker 2: and the whole theme of that in ninety sixty five 2222 01:47:45,893 --> 01:47:48,852 Speaker 2: was the rant commercialization of Christmas.
