2
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 1: what's going on with Travis rescheduling his concert. Apparently it's

3
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:07,920
Speaker 1: because Auntie Helen is going out for dinner on Wednesday,

4
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:10,039
Speaker 1: and so she doesn't mind if there's a concert next

5
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:11,840
Speaker 1: door on Wednesday, but Thursday's going to be a problem

6
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:13,240
Speaker 1: because she and Peter at planning to be at home

Speaker 1: president of the Restaurant Association, Mike Eagan is with us.

14
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 1: Hey Mike, Mike. Now not everybody loves the old Uber Eats,

15
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 1: But what do you reckon? Is this going to be

16
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 1: good for these towns and the restaurants they're all bad?

17
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 2: Oh? I think it's gonna be good. Yeah, I mean,

18
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 2: we use uber eats. It's just another arrow in the

19
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 2: quiver of getting to an audience, and people need a

20
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 2: bit of convenient sometimes, and some of those locations that

21
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 2: you've talked about, I can see, you know, the campgrounds

22
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,240
Speaker 2: are getting people will be sick of having snow was

23
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 2: on the barbecue and order up some Uber eats if

24
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 2: you had too many drinks in the sun to drive

25
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 2: to your favorite restaurants.

26
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, So as a consumer, I see no downside

27
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 1: and Uber eats, right, it opens up all these restaurants

28
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,119
Speaker 1: that I can't be theft going to. What's the downside

29
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: for restaurants.

30
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 2: Well, there is a commission component to it, but if restaurants,

31
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 2: I mean it might be five scene the sooner. It's not.

32
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 2: It's just a nice to have. It's great to get

33
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,680
Speaker 2: your brand out to people that maybe can't travel into

34
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 2: the city to try your food, or they've got other

35
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 2: transporter shoes and they can get something to eat. We've

36
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 2: got one guy's head one hundred and thirty deliveries of

37
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 2: their Vietnamese for it's never even been to our restaurant,

38
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 2: but that he likes this one desh and orders it

39
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 2: all the time. So yeah, just another audience brilliant.

40
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 1: Oh, Mike, thank you very much, really appreciated. Mike Egan,

41
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: owner of Monsoon Poon Prisoners of the Restaurant's Association. Thank god.

42
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: I'm tired of people knocking the Uber eat. Do you

43
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 1: know what can I say? This Uber eats everywhere, please,

44
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: and also Uber everywhere. If I have to go to

45
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 1: a small town and there's not Uber eats an uber,

46
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 1: I'm always disappointed because I'm like, oh wow, inconvenient, and

47
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,119
Speaker 1: this is what I had to do in Melbourne, which

48
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,080
Speaker 1: actually isn't a small town, so more for me. But

49
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 1: I just couldn't be I don't know, I'm not gonna

50
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 1: make a very strong argument. Couldn't be faft. And so

51
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 1: in the end would put the little boy to bed

52
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: and then one of us would go out sort of

53
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 1: wandering the streets looking for something to eat. It's really inconvenient.

54
