Speaker 1 (00:09):
You're listening to a podcast from news Talk said be
follow this and our wide range of podcasts now on iHeartRadio, Rerap.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
Okay there and welcome to the Rewrap for Friday, all
the best bits from the mic hosting breakfast on news Dogs.
They'd be in a sillier package. I am green Heart
and today we've got only Trump can save us. Really,
he's bringing peace everywhere. He's got a plan for Garda,
he's got a plan for Ukraine. So many plans, so

(00:47):
many people telling him for so many plans are so great.
And then we'll mark the week, because that's what we
do on Fridays, even when they come in the middle
of a long weekend, which isn't a long weekend, it
still what we do. But first up, Yeah, the reason
for that unusual weekend is.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
What is it again?

Speaker 4 (01:07):
For the Parana performance, the Seymour reaction, ah both indicative.
I would have thought of all that is wrong with
this country in terms of race relations. It is not
harmonious race relations. It is not well debated, it's not cordial.
It is not better than it has been. The PM
seems to get at Seymour, doesn't There's no point in
heading North each year. For goodness sake, you're simply treated
poorly by rude people this year and Seymour speech, have

(01:29):
you missed it all? The mic was removed twice, the
backs were turned, the people tried to sing over the
top of them. It's the same old, same old. There's
always a grievance, there's always somebody to hate on. They
defend it by telling you how angry they are this
year it's the Principal's bill. But at no point does
anyone accept that just because you disagree doesn't mean you
have to be rude. Rudeness is not justified simply because
you are on the opposite side of the debate of

(01:49):
the page. It is why most of us have tuned
out of the National Day a long time ago. Then
the Rugby Union the guardians of our national game. The
Peranara scenario unfolded because we live in the country where
MARI issues are too often acquiesced to in an excessive manner.
Piranara is just a player and a player and a team.
His race does not trump the team. And yet it's
very clear, as per the story on Wednesday, that he

(02:11):
was allowed to blackmail awoke collective into a sort of submission.
The Nzau was woke enamored by the modern day practices
because it's inept and has been for years. Organizations, groups
and businesses who are not sure of themselves sway in
the wind, and as such are captured by whatever's currently
cool married them in public life or public service or
the zeitgeist. For a while got cool. Everyone had to

(02:32):
say chiura, call it the motu token. It up to
look like you were part of the gang. That tide
has turned, or if it's not turned, its turning. But
because the Nzdar were submerged in it, the Peranara scenario
was allowed to unfold, with all the indecision and panic
so eloquently recounted in the story. If you haven't read it,
it's as much about Peranara and as arrogance as it
is about governance and ineptitude. Whether in Whiteitungy or in

(02:55):
this case Turin, it is this sort of nonsense that
prevents progress, and we are all paying the price.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
Yeah, I mean, I guess that is the week for
this here and arra thing to happen, isn't it. When
everybody's already a bit pet up about things?

Speaker 4 (03:14):
The rewrap I'm.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
Not sure really what the two widest men in New Zealand,
Guy Williams and David Seymour, have to do with at all,
but they do apparently.

Speaker 4 (03:24):
Mike, did you watch the stand up with David Seymour
at Waitangi where Mikey Sherman, Jenna Lynch and Guy Williams
made absolute fools of themselves and were owned by David.
I did Seymour's extremely funny, And what made it really
funny was that Guy Williams isn't and yet Guy Williams
was there as a comedian, but David Seymour wasn't, and
yet David Seymour was vastly more funny than Guy Williams.

(03:45):
Was What also disturbed me in reading in the Herald
this morning and look it up was and this brings
me back from what I was saying before seven o'clock
on Trump. So what is exercising the media, especially the
political media at the moment as they were making a thing.
If you saw the six o'clock News last night about
Seymour being miked, he miked himself. And what act do
these days very cleverly is they filmed themselves everything they do,
the interactions with the media. They filmed the whole thing

(04:08):
and this is the future of media, and the gallery
don't seem to have got hold of this. So what
they do is they film the whole thing. So when
you watch the six o'clock news and you see forty
seconds worth of David Seymour, it's never the full story
because they've gerry mannered it, edited it, put a spin
on it, whatever. Where As Seymour, by filming the entire interaction,
puts it up on his website you can see what
actually happens, and they hate that because the control has

(04:31):
been taken away. Of genuine concern to me, though, if
you read this morning's Herald, is that Guy Williams was
there filming a television program. The television program has received
from the taxpayer, you and I one million dollars one
million dollars to make a program that of this particular
exercises anything to go by, is literally a complete and

(04:53):
nutter waste.

Speaker 3 (04:54):
With my experience of watching Guy Williams, he'll probably be
quite self deprecating about that and make himself look like
a complete idiot, probably.

Speaker 2 (05:05):
Even worse than he actually was in reality, and that
will be quite funny. I think. I don't know if
it'll be a million dollars funny, but you know it'll
probably be worth watching. Right, So, another big week for
the reigning President Donald Trump. I think he's he promised

(05:29):
to basically bring us world peace. By lunchtime, I think
the timeline has been moved out just a little bit,
but only a little bit.

Speaker 4 (05:37):
So it was permanent that it wasn't they own it?
Then they're not. And so it went yesterday.

Speaker 5 (05:41):
Yeah, and so what happens tomorrow? You know, now we
find that President Trump didn't bother to tell his top
cabin peaks about his idea of turning Gaza into the
Mara Lago of the Middle East. So now something Team
Trump backpeddling a little, and Trump's new Secretary of State,
Marco Rubio says those who thought the Trump gals Ad
takeover was crazy and potentially criminal, well they've got it

(06:04):
all wrong. Says Rubio.

Speaker 6 (06:05):
The only thing President Trump has done very generously, in
my view, is off the United States willingness to step
in clear the debris, clean the place up from all
the destruction.

Speaker 5 (06:16):
No, that's not the only thing he said. Of course,
Trump spoke of a takeover quote unquote, which would see
the US evicting the two million or so Palestidians from
Gaza to somewhere.

Speaker 6 (06:26):
Are you talking about a permanent occupation there?

Speaker 5 (06:29):
I do see a long term ownership position, and I
see it bringing great stability to that part of the
Middle East. So if you are just doing clean up,
why would all the Palestinians need to be forcibly removed
from Gaza. You could clean the damaged areas bit by
bit with Palestinians staying in the region. Other Arab states
could take them, says Trump, Like Jordan. Well, Jordan already

(06:52):
is more than half Palestinian, and if those numbers are boosted,
they could bring the end of King Abdullah, who is
to meet with President Trump next week. What about Egypt,
Their president our CESI is engaged in a fierce campaign
against Islamic radicalism. Not in the market for this kind
of thing. The Saudis say thanks, but no thanks. For
many Palestidian Gazans say this is their land, as they've

(07:13):
been saying for as long as we can remember. Back
at the White House, the twenty seven year old New
Press spokesperson Carolyn Leavitt says.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
The President has not committed to putting boots on the
ground in Gaza. He has also said that the United
States is not going to pay for the rebuilding of Gaza.

Speaker 5 (07:30):
So who pays for the rebuilding of Gaza and turning
it into the riviera of the Middle East, as Donald
Trump now has taken to calling it. Who would build
the resorts and the golf courses and all that other
important stuff Mexico once they pay for the border war?
Maybe the US also has a problematic history, as we
know with nation building, which Trump often referred to during

(07:50):
his political campaign. We do not seek nation building. We're
getting out of the nation building business.

Speaker 6 (07:58):
No more nation building. It's never going to work.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
We must abandon the failed policy of nation building.

Speaker 5 (08:06):
We are not nation building again.

Speaker 6 (08:10):
We're not nation building.

Speaker 1 (08:11):
We're going to end the era of nation building.

Speaker 5 (08:16):
A disastrous concept, a disastrous era.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
What are we doing?

Speaker 4 (08:22):
What are we doing?

Speaker 5 (08:23):
This could go on. Irunk was supposed to be a
nation building effort. So was Afghanistan, and so looking further
back was Vietnam. So should Washington try this in the
most turbulent region on the planet. Democratic Senator Reuben Diego caused.

Speaker 1 (08:38):
This absolutely dump stuper and illegals.

Speaker 6 (08:42):
We will now be occupying Guyser.

Speaker 5 (08:44):
A number of Republicans on Capitol Hill echoing those concerns.
Here is one, I'm.

Speaker 3 (08:50):
Not supportive of having the American people paid to rebuild.

Speaker 5 (08:55):
Gaza, Louisiana Senator Kennedy there, while another Republican Senator, Lindsay Graham,
calls the Trump proposal problematic. If the new president was
just floating some starting position for the debate, question would be,
of course, what is the realistic plan?

Speaker 2 (09:08):
Yet now you would have noticed I don't normally put
foreign correspondence and this podcast, not because I don't think
they're not quality, but it's because there's usually sillier, more
entertaining things I can put in here. But I just
thought it was actually so masterfully done me by Richard

(09:29):
anna Or that it was worth replaying as many times
as possible. So go and cheer it with your friends.

Speaker 5 (09:35):
The rewrap.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
Yeah, so that was tramp on Gaza. But don't worry,
he hasn't forgotten Ukrainey that.

Speaker 4 (09:44):
I'm trying to navigate Trump at the moment. If Wednesday afternoon,
the press conference with Trump and nit n Yahoo, I
watched the whole thing. It was absolutely fantastic because it
was so unbelievably unhinged you couldn't believe what you were watching.
And the thing about Trump is, and you go back
to an old Steve benn And interview, you said it

(10:04):
several times. What they do is they throw crazy stuff
at you, and the media can't cope. So you do
three things a day, one of which is real. And
so the idea there's a seed of truth and pretty
much everything Trump says. So the seed of truth in
this particular Gaza thing was not that it's going to
be the Ribierra. Not none of that's going to happen.
The seed of the truth was we can't keep doing

(10:25):
what we've been doing because it doesn't work. And in
that he's correct. Then he goes off piece does the
mad thing. Everyone reacts to the mad thing, and what
will actually unfold will be less than that, but more
than what it has been. And so in that sense,
it's quite clever.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
No.

Speaker 3 (10:42):
See, this is what he does.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
He lowers your expectations so low that whatever he ends
up happening seems like it's clever. But that's not clever.
It's just being manipulative and underhand, isn't it. As you

(11:05):
can tell I'm not really a fan. Sorry, sorry, Trump answered,
listening to this podcast, I know they must be so
many of you. Sorry, it didn't mean to offend you.

Speaker 3 (11:14):
The rewrap.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
Tell you what, Let's make it all better. Let's mark
the week because it's Friday. It is, it is so Friday.

Speaker 4 (11:21):
Timed out to make the week using current affairs segment
that's more popular than the spear market to David Seymour speech,
White hangy too. At some point the minority is going
to realize the majority I e US tuned out years ago,
and the circus that passes for a so called national
day needs a massive rethink. School lunches too, well, the
whiny anyway. General reports suggests the lunches themselves are actually fine,

(11:42):
but the bitching and the media clickbait superficiality that's got
to stop. Are the Warriors seven? Yes, first trial game
tonight in Sydney against the Sharks. Can it be? Oh
yes it can. Tariffs six. I mean, Lord knows where
it all goes and where a full scale war breaks out,
but it's a first early when I would have thought
to the Trumpster over Mexico and Canada, the Trumpster six.

Speaker 6 (12:02):
We will bring our country back together as one nation, underguard,
with liberty and justice for all.

Speaker 4 (12:08):
Now, if you ever want to experience Trump and full mad, unrestrained,
can this be real? How nuts is he really? Flight
Watch the presser with net and thea who on Wednesday.
It was mental unruh three. The US stopped the money.
I told the Prime Minister about this this week, about
the Israeli hostage who told Starmer that she was kept
at an unra A facility by Hamas. So we continue

(12:29):
to fund them? Why TJ two self indulgent, arrogant nonsense.
The end z are two. If you ever wondered why
they're in the state they are. Read the story about
TJ's tanty and their handling and there's your answer. Dairy nine.
That loss are going stratisferic and other blockbuster auction this week.
The billions continue to flow. God bless the farmers. And

(12:51):
that's before we get to the apples Go the bay
Tory farn Our six The admission she should have tried
being a councilor first, well, that was at least honest.
Are the Wellington Water Care CEO sex because he apologized
for not listening over consultants' apologies don't fix fluts for of
course that it's better than being a track about it. Wellington,
how is three twenty five percent, as in evaluation is

(13:12):
a bath and that, sadly is what you get when
you systematically go about wrecking a place. Tax seven the
budget could be interesting. Hmmm, it's hope. So are the
Cork Islands four. In some respects the story of the week.
Winston's line has always been the islands value our friendship.
My line has always been the islands value of checkbook.
And that's the week copies on the website and the
register evaluation for this, by the way, Caman this week

(13:34):
it's up another seven percent for the quarter. Basically it's gold.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
I just hope that when Artanga changes over to be
a Chinese particulate that they don't change the currency as well.
I don't want to have to change convert my money
into yuan. It's just that's one of the cool things
about going there, and you use the same money, so

(13:58):
can we at least keep that part? I am Glenn Hart.
That was the rewrap. We will rewrap again on Monday.
I know it fell like Monday to day, but it
wasn't okay, gonna let it Go.
