Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:07):
You're listening to the Marcus Lush Night's podcast from News Talks.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
I'd be hey, no, wait, evening, Welcome, my name is Marcus.
Good evening, Welcome to Thursday. Although you'll be familiar with Thursday,
it's already about sixteen hours old, twenty hours old. It's
just back correct that my name is Marcus had on
midnight tonight. Firstly, and I know I say it, but
this is the worst weather event of the year. It's
not a major, but it's happening. If you've got any
weather updates for me, let me know what's going on

(00:32):
for ask us every night during a storm, so it's
from a job, let us know what's going on for you.
I think they are sandbagging in the Gray District.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
Now.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
It's hard with the way the media is to work
out what's going on and where. So what I'm saying,
if you are there, if you are Johnny on the
spot or Cooper on the corner, let us know what's
happening in your community with this weather. Is it going
to amount twenty things? I don't know. You never can
know with weather because these things, these weather systems change

(01:04):
and they act in an ratic manner. But it's the
biggest storm of the year. It's going to be windy
on your commute tomorrow morning if you're in Auckland. I
said that there's sandbagging. Sandbags are available in the Gray District.
Whether the views them or not, I don't know if
you've got the information about that. Let us know. Oh,

(01:26):
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty nine two nine two six,
this is the atmospheric river. I'm not trying to talk
it up, but I'm not trying to talk it down.
I just want the fact. So if you've got some
information about that, let us know. This is this weather
system was going to be orange and it was going
to be read. Now it's back to orange. Yeah, So

(01:49):
get in touch if you've got something to say about that.
I'd be king to hear you talk about it. I'm
not going to talk about weather for four hours. I
don't fully know what we're going to talk about for
four hours. But it's not exclusively going to be the weather.
But if we want to start with that, let us know.
By the way, did you go and watch any Vel
Kilmer movies today? An homage to him, I'd be curious

(02:09):
to know picked up my boy had been to the
Minecraft movies. It was very good. Although I am interested
about who's seeing the snow White movie. That's quite problematic.
I only just kind of worked out what's going on
with that one. The situation abouts appeared to be that
the woman that plays snow White was quite opinionated. That's

(02:37):
why the movie is problematic is because she said they
asked about making the movie. She said, well, the last movie,
the original, was quite stalky, which I hadn't thought about.
So yeah. So also, if you've seen I've asked us
a couple of times, have you seen snow White? Let
me know. Although Peter Dinklice you'll know from Game of

(03:01):
Thrones in the Station Master, he did say his quote
about snow white dwarfs living in a cave really does
sound slightly problematic, doesn't it. Anyway, you might have seen
that one as well. Oh wait, one hundred and eighty
Taddy in nine nine to detextsh if you're involved in

(03:23):
the primary production of meat, if you're a farmer, are
you concerned about the tariffs? Seems slightly confusing reading deeply
into it today, it seems as though Trump hasn't really
reflected tariffs around the world He's reflected trade and balances,
and that seems to be what sets the level of

(03:46):
the tariffs. It's gonna make things very expensive to buy
in America. One would think they're not going to curtail
inflation anytime soon. Even the stuff that's made in America,
like beer or the hops and stuff come from Mexico.
So stuff's going to be pricey. What does it mean
for us going to America on a holiday? Don't know.

(04:07):
I guess that all depends about the dollar. But you
want to get involved with the show. Oh, eight hundred
and eighty, there's something else you want to mention up
for that. It's Thursday daylight saving this weekend. It's going
to be a long weekend, an hour longer. Just so
you know what you can do the next couple of
nights is going to bed an hour later, and that
way you're getting ready for day. I've never done this before,

(04:27):
but I'm getting I'm pre getting ready for it. I'm
going to bed at one o'clock tonight and preparation. No
one seems snow white, eh, no one. I'm going to
go the kids. I said to the kids, you want

(04:49):
to go, say said snow They said what's snow white?
The cheapest creepers. I've kind of let them down on
the back cannon of the Disney products, which I'm not
too upset about. But I thought everyone knew about snow white.
The Dwarfs name them probably happy, dopey, sleepy, grumpy Doc.

(05:16):
That's five. Don't tell me the other two sneezy, Sneezy, dopey, sleepy.
Anyway again, touch you want to talk. My name is Marcus.
Welcome here at twelve o'clock tonight. There's something else you
want to go around about tonight too. Love to hear
from you, Oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty nineteen.
Mainly it's about the weather to begin with. By the way,

(05:40):
there's been a special flight of greyhound dogs being sent
to Australia. The flight arrived on Wednesday carrying the dogs.
Even though the Racing Minister said relocating dogs for another
country for racing will not be permitted under a rehoming
plan that has yet to be unveiled. But they've already
gone across. This is all going about as well as

(06:02):
you can imagine. The Australian Greyhound website is a racing
greyhounds have been sent to Australia as officials work on
a program to prevent such an action. A chartered flight
containing eighty greyhounds arrived in Queensland on Wednesday. They came
from gold Star Racing in Canterbury. So what that means

(06:30):
I suppose to concerns are that dogs that are supposed
to be free from racing will now be racing overseas.
So what's it achieved? Well, nothing, I guess the dogs
will just be racing elsewhere. You might know more about that,
You might be someone that's in that community. As I say.
I went to the races, the dog races in huang

(06:51):
Nui in the holidays early January. Thought it was a
pretty slick operation. Actually quite a pleasant night out, to
be fair. There didn't appear to be an event with
the gallows hanging over it. But yeah, there you go.
But there's just me get in touch. Marcus till twelve,
eight hundred and eighty eight today on the question for
you too, Here's something I had been thinking about. Ah, Marcus, Hey, Marcus,

(07:17):
I watched the Doors movie today, has been ages since
last time? Was awesome? Steve go val here, Wow, boy
did he inhabit that role? Goodness me. Oh, James Morrison, unbelievable.
But do get in touch. What was I going to

(07:38):
forget what I was talking about? Anyway? It's not a problem.
Oh yes, here's what I was thinking about. Here's something.
Here's a question for you. When was the last time
you took a photo that wasn't on your phone? For me,

(08:07):
be twenty five years. Never do it? Never ever do it. However,
I have to acknowledge that to have had children and

(08:29):
the time of cell phones one of the great I've
got thousands of photos of them. I've got some sort
of thing that comes up on the phone has random
photos of them. Boy, there's a lot of them. Wouldn't
have had those of it? Never sell phone camera? Probably?
What about three photos a year? That's a positive, innit?
Jeepers Marcus? Pretty windy walk with north just traveling up

(08:56):
to fund a point. Pretty windy? Thank you for that.
Regarding the dog racing, if it's going around corners that
injures the dogs and the hips, why not just do
straight line drag races? Well, funny should mention that wanging
away they tod build a straight line race course. But
when I went on a Friday said why aren't you
racing straight? They say, we do that on a Tuesday

(09:19):
for a good chicken meal.

Speaker 4 (09:20):
There.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
Actually there's like a someone cooking. Oh, it was quite
the complete experience. Got the bus there, got the bus back, Marcus.
We gain an hour when daylight Savings rolls back to
New Zealand standard time. So if you're prepping for change,
shouldn't be going to bed an hour earlier. Why do

(09:42):
people ask me these questions about d late savings? No,
I will be going to bed right if it's getting
to dark. If it's getting dark at eight, then next
week will be getting dark at seven. So to be

(10:06):
prepared for it, I'd go to bed when it is
an hour darker. If I go to bed at one
and get up at nine this week, that will be
the same as going to bed at twelve and getting
up at eight next week. Believe me with this, but

(10:29):
I spend a lot of my time thinking about Daylight's say.
I can appreciate your question. For a while there I
thought you might be right, But now I'm gonna stick
with this. We get confused with it every year. Seventeen
past eight looking forward to your input, very windy and Devenport.
You make me smile Nan, thank you Nan, and and

(10:50):
try on. I won't go into that which Dwarf didn't.
I get bashful. I think it's the bashful thoughts. P.
Sixt out of seven's pretty good, So it's a horrendous
concept of entertainment. Really, Dwarf's living in the cave. To
tell ver of five people talk a photo two days ago,
I me instapicts polaroid. I collect photos of my daughter

(11:14):
and I together once a month, of a wall of
our past five years. Marcus saw snow White movie the
other day. Thought it was a cracker. Loved it as
much as I did when I saw the original back
in the day. To be honest, I shouldn't say to

(11:35):
be honest, I always try to be honest. I think
in my mind I've pretty much got snow White confused
with Sleeping Beauty. I know they're pretty much the same movie.
So I couldn't really understand the subtleties of the plot.
Just saying that, putting that out there. Every night I

(11:56):
get about three texts that say, easy to remember spring
Ford fall back for a start, we don't call autumn fall.
And secondly, doesn't everyone.

Speaker 5 (12:05):
Know that.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
We know daylight savings. What we don't know is how
to get ready for it. I'm saying in this first
week you should go to bed an hour later. I'll
fight you on that one. Marcus often take photos of
my daughter using my wife's phone. It's a nice surprise
when she finds the photos days later. Oh, nice idea

(12:35):
twenty past date. My name is Marcus. Welcome pedal twelve,
looking forward to her and put tonight. If there is
something different or random you want to talk about. Keen
to hear about the weathery windy and Auckland wet and
windy and Auckland. If you've been talking to Auckland. Is
that what's there on about? Oh Marcus. To prepare for
the clock going back, you should go to bed fifteen

(12:55):
minutes from now till Sunday, so tomorrow night half an
hour later. Yes, I'm saying you had a bed later.
That's what I said, Marcus. I think it's fair play
descend racing dogs overseas shouldn't be able to bend industry.
They're not let owners save some of their investments. They
aren't worth much as pets. Although what the actual text says,

(13:20):
I think it's fair play to send current raving dogs
overseas brilliant. No one's seen snow White. The new snow
White movie is white rubbish. Have you seen it? Do
you know what woke rubbish means? Because I bet you
probably haven't. I haven't seen it. I think some people
were upset because here we go, because she was Colombian

(13:44):
and they thought that she needed to be white as
in snow White. I think she's quite a compelling actoor.
Snow White has been rated the worst live action Disney
adaptation are one point nine rating on Rotten Tomatoes. I
think people did that deliberately just because they thought, yeah,

(14:06):
nothing straightforward with Disney anymore. I think those people just
got on there because they thought Disney was doing something malevolent.
It's keyboard worries everywhere. That's the trouble. Dave, Marcus welcome.

Speaker 4 (14:21):
How are you? Marcus?

Speaker 6 (14:23):
Good?

Speaker 2 (14:23):
Dave?

Speaker 4 (14:24):
Yeah, talking about the dog racing, it's quite a sad
set up because I've got the track side and I
knew the guy that owned the great dog and he
was the guy that ended up getting Sunline.

Speaker 7 (14:39):
Oh yeah, saye green, some Line's a horse, right, Well,
he owned.

Speaker 4 (14:46):
The great race horse called Sunline.

Speaker 2 (14:49):
Yea, that's what I'm saying he had because I'm thinking,
hang about there must be a greyhound goud Sunline. I
thought I got it up school quickly.

Speaker 4 (14:55):
Okay, wow, yeah he owned Sunline.

Speaker 3 (14:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (14:59):
But getting back to the track side, you see the
great trainers of the dog and one the other day
Mcinernie there, mac an Alti or whatever. He had a
couple of dogs there and one paid twenty eight dollars.
And I'm starting to think.

Speaker 2 (15:18):
But your pardon are starting to think?

Speaker 4 (15:20):
I'm starting to think, you know, yeah, well, you know
the racing industry is backed by endtain. You know that,
don't you, Dave?

Speaker 2 (15:30):
Would there be many people I think they get fifty
percent of the cut. Are there many gallup people that
would have dogs as well? I thought they were like
different sports.

Speaker 4 (15:40):
I don't think so.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
Really, No, we'll look into it, Dave. Thank you, Carrie,
Marcus welcome.

Speaker 8 (15:45):
Hey Marcus. Hey, there's something that annoys me about taking
a photo on the cell phone. I need to know
the answer. Yeah, Now, when you take a photo on
the cellphone annoys me when people take a photo with
their own vertical. Now I'll do it horizontal. I know

(16:07):
this is trivial, but what is a correct way of
doing it on a cell phone.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
What do they call horizontal, Dan, you call it? You
call that, you call horizontal landscape?

Speaker 8 (16:28):
Landscape? Correct? No landscape, the away horizontal portrait, this vertical.

Speaker 2 (16:37):
You just do what you want, I think, Carrie.

Speaker 8 (16:40):
Yeah, I realize that, but it's always when when people
do portrayed because I do horizontal landscape.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
Yeah, I do both, brilliant you know that. Way on
in my head. I've only got one story about taking if.
I was in Queenstown. There was a couple taking a
photo at that wall on the lake, and I said,
can I take the photo for you? Right? They said,
you would lie? Yeah? What you're a nice guy, Yeah, yeah,

(17:09):
the greatest sort. I looked out. They're on a honeymoon.
So I start taking the fight of this couple on
a honeymoon. Then someone comes along and says to me, Hey,
would you like me to take the photo for you?
And they wanted me to go on with the other
two the honeymoon capital and they take the front of
the three of us. I thought, jeeps, creeper as tony
people keen to help out. Philip's Marcus good evening.

Speaker 5 (17:32):
Oh hi Marcus, Yeah, I like what that I said
about taking photos on landscape instead of portrait drives me
that too. Don't people think about.

Speaker 9 (17:41):
What they're taking?

Speaker 5 (17:42):
But I'm a regular user of a camera. But I
have a very good excuse. I'm a motorsport photographer.

Speaker 2 (17:51):
Great, so you'd be you'd be landscape. You're there, Phil
drop down. I don't know why people would get upset
at depends on how you're going to look at them.
You're normally looking at your phone vertically, aren't you. Why
do there someone put out a square camera, a square

(18:13):
There might be a good plan for someone to start
developing a square cell phone with square photos. One of
the greatest texts I've ever had, Marcus, why don't you
read the news?

Speaker 6 (18:26):
Well?

Speaker 2 (18:27):
Alicea compiles and writes the news, so it's a lot
to do. It'll be a difficult to sit. I mean
it's a fair point, but I didn't Midaunt. I think
I used to read the news. I can't remember much
about it. Did old Bruce Russell read the news? I

(18:50):
don't think he would have. Matthew Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 10 (18:54):
So how are you Marcus? Long time?

Speaker 2 (18:56):
They're here at you?

Speaker 10 (18:59):
Apparently you know what those photos?

Speaker 3 (19:00):
I like to do.

Speaker 10 (19:01):
I like to take your vertical.

Speaker 2 (19:04):
What problem are what problem with those other guys having
with vertical?

Speaker 10 (19:09):
Well, vertical is actually better than horizontal because verticals initially
get a wider shot. But we're in the phone straight
up and down your camp. But when it's on the side,
you can intially get a more and more of a
wider from the home.

Speaker 2 (19:23):
I think that's horizontal.

Speaker 11 (19:24):
I think.

Speaker 10 (19:27):
Because and they can actually get a wide of you.
So I don't know what people are crying about.

Speaker 2 (19:34):
It, No, that's just life. People are two years to complaining.
I guess great vertical photos a bit of for social media.
Horizontal is better for printing and saving memories, Marcus. To
prepare for the end of daylight savings, put your clock
for an hour tonight, for another hour tomorrow. Then to

(20:02):
prepare for the end of daylight savings, put your four
o'clock for an hour tonight for another tomorrow night, then
back three hourisods. It's weird though, because I think to
prepare for it, you want to start going to sleep
an hour later. I'm not talking about the tire, I
am talking about the time. But then ah, because midnight

(20:27):
at the moment will feel like one am. Come next Monday,
you will feel an hour tireder more tired. I promise
you about that. It's confusing, isn't it. But yeah, I'm
not one of these daylight savers, Denys. I reckon for
a week or two cents to be crop not krop.

(20:47):
But suddenly I find myself slightly at the end of
a tether.

Speaker 6 (20:53):
Still.

Speaker 2 (20:53):
Yeah, very sensitive to little changes in the a routine.
Don't like it, Marcus. That made me laugh. When we're
in Queenstown up the top of the gondole, or it
happened to us, but with a large bunch of Japanese tourists,
after you take their phone and the tune, I ate
it up in loads of their photos. Very funny. People
love ask if they can take your photos, don't they?
And I'm off and down the bluff sign too, because

(21:15):
people are always I don't know what it is about
that bluff sid. They're all way, oh, can I take
your phone?

Speaker 12 (21:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (21:20):
Oh yeah, where you're from? Mind you, there was that
one person that took the phone and they got COVID.
You don't see selfie sticks so much anymore, do you.

Speaker 5 (21:34):
That?

Speaker 2 (21:34):
What happened to them? I tell you what if you
missed last night's show boy. Oh boy, what a struggle
to get anyone to talk about about Willow the movie.
And then there was a guy came through that taught
them how to ride horses. What extraordinary call that was
les Jee was good and it teaches that they got

(21:59):
all these actors in this movie, none of them could ride.
It wasn't probably why they filmed them in New Zealand,
because I didn't want to ensure them in America for
writing in case they fell. People have just gone back
to the original selfie. Stick your arm, Marcus, what's with

(22:20):
the drug? Middle age been calling up talking about selfie again?
Confused about what's vertical and what's horizontal. Well, they might
be hard concepts. I mean you've got to admit that
longitude and latitude. Have you got those sort of out yet?
I haven't. Or twenty two to nine dB, Marcus, welcome,
good evening.

Speaker 13 (22:38):
I've just come up with a quick one for latitude
and longitude. Longitude is how tall you are. Latitude is
how much you let your belt out to dinner.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
And very good, so they let me. The equator is
zero latitude right by of course longitude. Did you read
that book about longitude when they'd developed the clock.

Speaker 13 (23:00):
I've watched a number of documentaries on it. I've never
read the book.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
You had to build a wristwatch that was quite accurate.
That was the whole key to it, to get to reconcile.
It was quite It was quite a challenge to find
the to build a watch that they're going to be
execut to six seconds a day or something for a
good book worth reading.

Speaker 13 (23:20):
Yeah, well, Captain Cock, couldn't he have three of them
on to lo longitude problem? And then they wouldn't pay
the poor guy, because that's the way they are.

Speaker 3 (23:30):
Anyway.

Speaker 13 (23:31):
What I rang up about is a daylight saving story
that happened. I was the supervisor on the platform at
trans Metro at one particular morning just as Wellington yep, yep,
and she was in sensed about when was the northerner

(23:53):
going to leave to go to Auckland and all sort
of look and said garden time. She says, I've been
here for forty five minutes, no train has turned up
on platform line to go to Auckland. A little bit
at lost. Then the penny dropper says, you know that

(24:14):
daylight savings started today, and she was about to give
me my pedigree when the penny dropped her as well,
and she left in high dungeon.

Speaker 2 (24:23):
Wow. Well, these days I think daylight savings is not
what it once was. Cause your cell phone adjusts automatically.
I think there'll come a time we won't even know.

Speaker 13 (24:33):
Well, that's fine. The only thing that happens, you will
feel weird for a company. Yes, I do, and and nothing.
You know, I have to go through the house and
do all the them. I've got to do the microwave,
the oven and the wall clock. It's it's changed, but
I've spent forty years as a shipworker. It makes almost

(24:54):
no difference to me. Well it never used to. It
does now because i've over much stricter time museum. But yeah, so.

Speaker 2 (25:04):
I've got huge, So I've got huge. Do you think
shift workers don't they like, Well, they're all sort of
kelter anyway, aren't they out of kelter?

Speaker 13 (25:13):
That's right? And what the railroad shift work? In one
stage it was a different five minutes anytime around the clock.
Of course, so after a while time was only what
time you turn up and work. And they're nothing to
do with daylight time or anything else. Just get the
day right, preferably on days that I wasn't even booked

(25:33):
on to go to work, and next tomorrow you're booked on.
All right, I'll leave there.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
I think that story d be thank you, oh Marcus.
Photographs can be the portrait vertical or landscape horizontal, depending
on your composition. But videos should always be landscape. Not
if you're on TikTok. TikTok's all vertical. That's the key
to TikTok. But if you come across some the news

(26:07):
worthy happening in the streets, you should film it landscape
because that's the way that the TV will buy your footage.
That's my advice to you, because TV's landscape. Sh Marcus,

(26:29):
will there are some great texts that year. Why don't
you read the news? I always wondered that. Now I know.
The thing I hate most is the missus always films
a movie with the phone on portrait. They should only
be filmed in landscape. Surely drives me mad when we
watch it later. Who'd watched a film? A movie? You

(26:52):
see that a content everyone's filming? Are they filming or
live streaming? What's that about? Marcus? Middle aged drunk men
have no problem TVs used to have horizontal and vertical hold.
A vertical hod wasn't set right, the picture would go
round and round. I think TV's only had vertical hold.

(27:14):
I don't think they had a horizontal hold. Marcus. The
tap is offering what odds on Liam Lawson meeting beating
Yuki Sonoda in the Japanese GP A A dollar thirty six,
B four dollars C six dollars seventy two answer B

(27:36):
jan Jan Marcus.

Speaker 14 (27:37):
Welcome, Hi Marcus, Marcus, how are.

Speaker 2 (27:41):
You very good? Thank you?

Speaker 14 (27:43):
That's good.

Speaker 2 (27:44):
I see what you say.

Speaker 9 (27:45):
Am.

Speaker 14 (27:48):
Now when you came to one knew he went to
see the greyhounds?

Speaker 9 (27:53):
Is that right correct?

Speaker 14 (27:55):
How come they go straight on a Tuesday and around
in a circle the rest of the.

Speaker 2 (28:01):
Time seems like Friday. Seems like Friday was party night.
Right in the straight course, They've got a beautiful club rooms,
you like, high up over the thing, and there's a dinner,
and there's a restaurant, there's a bar, and it's very
sophisticated setting. But you had to look out the back
way to see the straight track. The views wind is good.
Oh so it's kind of dinner and a show on

(28:23):
a Friday Tuesday. Yeah, good for the greyhounds, but not
good for this. Have you never been?

Speaker 14 (28:29):
Oh, I'm too much of a lover of dogs and
I and cruelty. Well, when they're making money at the events,
it's terrible.

Speaker 2 (28:42):
The people said that the dogs seemed like a very
lovely people, but yeah, I would say that probably.

Speaker 14 (28:47):
Yeah, And they say that they do make very good pets,
everyone who has one. I see quite a few of
them being walked.

Speaker 2 (28:56):
All they they won't be the available for pets soon
because there'll be no more greyhounds.

Speaker 14 (29:01):
Yeah, when's that's stopping?

Speaker 2 (29:03):
Well later on this year, I think, Ah, not that
all the dogs have been put on planes and seemed
to Australia, which is not supposed to happen. But they
haven't got a plan.

Speaker 14 (29:12):
B Oh, that's just terrible.

Speaker 2 (29:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 14 (29:16):
Oh, well they'll have to answer for their cruelty.

Speaker 2 (29:19):
Won't hohotu jen.

Speaker 14 (29:22):
God God will be writing down everything they're doing.

Speaker 2 (29:29):
What's the Bible? What's the Bible say about that?

Speaker 14 (29:32):
Well, if you sin, you'll pay for it. The other
thing I wanted to ask you.

Speaker 2 (29:39):
About pretty general, if you sin, your pay yep.

Speaker 15 (29:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 14 (29:44):
The other thing I'm wondering, why no one said anything
about the Chinese battleships surrounding Taiwan. No one seems to
be saying anything.

Speaker 2 (29:54):
What would people say? What would people say?

Speaker 14 (29:57):
Well, it's pretty frightening. They've got nine battleships surrounding I want,
I mean, that's the major afront.

Speaker 2 (30:07):
What show would you call and talk about that with?

Speaker 14 (30:13):
I don't know any show.

Speaker 2 (30:16):
Okay, well I'll take that from you. Jan, Thank you.
Fourteen to nine Marcus looking forward to Sunday when the
clock in my car will be correct again. Martin. My
twenty year old daughter brought herself a good quality compact
is your camera that connects to her phone and uses
that for all her photos selfie taking. She did it
because she had that. All the smartphone companies like Samsung

(30:37):
and Apple constant upgrade their phone cameras to make people
constantly upgrade their phones just for the camera upgrade, spinning
thousands each time. What I like about cell phones and cameras.
Everyone's got a camera. But you know what, there's been
no more sightings of UFOs or ghosts. Nothing weird's happened

(30:58):
more common now we've all got photos cameras all the time.
That made more sense when I thought of it. But
you know what I'm saying, don't you? No more shots
of the Locknest Monster, No more shots of the ety,
no more shots of their Berald snowmen. Nothing, even though
everyone has a camera always. What's that about? Still waiting

(31:25):
for someone that's seems snow white? It's lost a fortune
two fifty mil to make and it's just make it
two fifty mili to make it for turn sixty mil
at the box office. But it might become a sleeper hit,
but not from this show. No one's been to see it.
I don't know if what is it? As animated? No,

(31:46):
it's live action. But I can't quite work out how
they've done it. Do you call them dwarfs? It is
snow white, the seven Dwarves, isn't it? So how did
they film them if they weren't. I'm looking at pictures

(32:11):
for it, but they look like they're cgi'ed. Yeah, we
always put them with those weird a blinking beards, say,
without the mustache. What's that about? Anyway? Will I go
and see it? Maybe? Big weekend of sport A, we've

(32:42):
got the Formula one four forty five. A lot of
people were watching that it's payback time. Heading towards the
top of our heading towards news. A couple before news,
what have you got? When was the last time you
took a photo without a cell phone? When was the
last time you had photos developed? For a while there,

(33:03):
I was going to Harvey Norman to get photos about
why Actually, the phone's a perfect place to view them.
But more and more you get involved with conversations, and
most of the conversations someone trying to find a phone
a photo often me by going back for days and year.
The best thing for that is your calendar or your

(33:25):
geographical search. I can find a photo quite often, but
still my conversation techniques are more just pointing out photos
these days keep the text very good text to people, Marcus.
I think the actress that played snow White said some

(33:47):
remark about the earliest snow White movie that upset people. Yeah,
she said, it's going to be different from the original because,
let's be fair, the guy was a stalker. I don't
know about enough about the original movie. But as she
should have said that it's ninety years ago. Things have changed.
And then Richard Dinklich said, surely we've moved beyond dwarfs

(34:08):
living in a cage. Fair thing to say. They see
g eyed them, just like they see g I the
Umpa Lumpers and the Wonka remake. And if ever, you've
read one of the books about and there's been several
written about the actors that played the Munchkins in the

(34:31):
Wizard of Oz, well, goodness, graceous me. They treated terribly
though I'm maligned they were. Rumors were said about them.
It was terrible. Even the lead disparaged them the whole time.

(34:52):
And yeah, unbelievable story there anyway, So why am I
telling you this?

Speaker 11 (35:01):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (35:01):
Yes, because why is the movie? But is the movie
any good? Your Judy Garland disparaged them, I think quite often.
I don't know why. I guess probably just looking for
copy anyway, Marcus, snow White was my favorite when I
was a kid, and they've wrecked it. How do you know?
Have you been to sing? It could be very very good.

(35:24):
Some of those live action Disney movies are extraordinary. I
don't know which ones, Marcus, just I was watching the
snow White trailer on YouTube. They then spent the next
hour reading the comments. It currently has around seventy two
thousand likes and two point two million dislikes. It's a

(35:45):
movie anyway, I'm yet to find anyone that's seen it.
I think it's still on the cinemas. Yeah, they are
the people that play the Munchkins. I think they just

(36:06):
filmed from up on High. So it's a different kind
of a vibe with the Munchkins and Wicked. No one
mourns the Wicked here until twelve. What about you get
in touch. My name is Marcus eight hundred and eighty today, Angela.
Welcome and good evening. How I make how I Angela?

(36:27):
What's happening?

Speaker 16 (36:29):
Good?

Speaker 17 (36:29):
It's just driving back small clan backs, our small plans. Yeah,
pretty steady.

Speaker 2 (36:37):
Yeah, I can hear the windscrew, I can hear the
windscreen wipe is going.

Speaker 17 (36:42):
Yes, yes, the winds picked up, and I'll be pleased
to get home shortly.

Speaker 2 (36:47):
Okay, So it's been quite heavy the.

Speaker 17 (36:48):
Whole way, No, Sonny's just started to get really heavy
or really steady, and probably in the last forty five minutes.

Speaker 2 (36:57):
Okay, And is it made driving challenging? There's any signs
of any roads likely to become impassable or anything.

Speaker 3 (37:06):
I know, the.

Speaker 17 (37:07):
Clooding of the stape just with all the road.

Speaker 11 (37:10):
Wound the time there you go, what's what's the terraffs?

Speaker 17 (37:22):
What's that all becoming an expense of the Do you
think so I want to hit down south and bom
some New Zealans.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
Well, I guess if you're making Aussie dollar, if you're
making American dollars, you could move and live here. It
would be it would stack up pretty well, wouldn't it.
You'd be almost two for one and everything would be
a lot cheaper.

Speaker 17 (37:42):
Exactly.

Speaker 2 (37:44):
Yeah, I haven't quite word at how they calculated our
tariffs if they worked out. Some said they might have
included GST. But anyway, if that's effect you nice to
talk ang to get in touch. Really had any discussions
on the tariffs. I guess it's going to take a
while for that to percolate down. But if you are
an export or what will that mean to you? Because
the way I understand it, your prices, you'll get the

(38:07):
same price for your goods, but just the goods will
be ten percent more expensive in the States, and of
course that ten percent levy goes to the government. So
it just means that if you're trying to compete with
American goods, your goods will become ten percent more expensive

(38:29):
now in terms of meat and stuff, I presume our
meats much cheaper anyway, is it when we send it
up there? I don't know the answer to that, but yeah,
I thought I heard lux and say hopefully we go
expect we're going to dodge the tariffs. Now it's ten percent,
and they're trying to make it look like a victory.
I think there's also a sense too that it's not

(38:50):
going to be permanent, that he was just using tariffs
as a bargaining chip. But it seems as though that
particular sentiment people think it's less and less likely. Now anyway,
how are you going people welcome one of his Marcus? Marcus?
What's the plural word for moose? It's a good question, Marcus.

(39:13):
Not many things freaked me out, if any, But today
raise the bar. A dump truck towing two trailer units
stopped on the traffic lights at one of the South
Auckland's business sections when a thirty something year old crossed
the road jumped the toebar in between the trailers into
two live lanes just as the lights turn green. The
truck driver, totally oblivious if anything had got wrong, and

(39:34):
then in that ten seconds, no doubt the truck driver
would have copped it. People just don't think, Marcus, anything
goes okay. The Locknest monster and the lack of contemporary photos.
If we take the original grainy photo of NESTSI as

(39:56):
been fair, dik and honest and truly a picture of
a dinosaur, then it's not unreasonable to consider that ninety
two years later the animal has died of old age.
I apply the same logic to Bigfoot. Good point. Hey,
by the way, too, there's some documentaries online about Jim
Morrison still being alive. It's quite convincing. Sealed Coffin. Phantom

(40:18):
doctor to the autopsy, said he wanted to lead an
anonymous life. I can see why people do think Jim
Morrison's still alive. I'm not saying he is, but you
can make a convincing study for that. I don't know
what the documentary is called, but there's one online. Marcus
loved the show This evening read the tariffs of your

(40:40):
goods were one hundred a ton this week to the US.
The next week they'll want to only pay you ninety
a ton, and they'll pay the tariff on their end
but still sell it for the same price. Regard Montgomery,
fair enough, Marcus next week after daylight savings ends, What

(41:04):
time will the news be on? Seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven,
Marcus is the day of the tariffs, the sequel to
the Day of the Triffids prequel? I reckon plural of moose?
Google it, hit'll twelve. Where was the last time you

(41:25):
took a photo? But not on your phone? That's the
question tonight. And has anyone actually seen snow white? Not
in real life? So there are words which are their
own plural. Think of some moose, sheep, deer. There'll be

(41:45):
a word for that, and a regular plural noun. Other examples.
I can't think of some, but I'll come up with
some for you. I've become an evening tea drinker, and gosh,
I'm loving it. I was always one of those coffee balls.
I like a cup of coffee. But what you don't drink,

(42:07):
you drink tea. It's it seems to be much more
pleasant of an evening find myself less wired. I never
thought I'd become a tea boar, but I mean not
just chuck my beg in the cab and leave it.
I'm not doing anything wicky with the teapot. But yeah,
so there we go. I've often judged tea drinks in
the past, feeling that they were missing out on something,
So I apologize. Kelvin, Kelvin, Kelvin.

Speaker 12 (42:32):
Marcus, Marcus, Marcus, Kelvin.

Speaker 2 (42:35):
Just before we talk about now White, did you see Wicked?

Speaker 12 (42:38):
Now?

Speaker 2 (42:39):
Why not?

Speaker 12 (42:41):
It's got a green face. And even though I'm nearly eighty.

Speaker 2 (42:44):
Four, that's the whole point.

Speaker 12 (42:48):
Well, you asked me, and I was going to tell
you if you want me to tell you. If you don't,
it doesn't matter. Yeah, so you asked me, so I'll
tell you. When I was about seven, I saw the
original movie what was called there, the original one.

Speaker 7 (43:03):
Decades ago, The Wizard of Oz, Wizard of the Sorry
Wizard of Oz and the Wicked, the Wicked Witch of
the green Face scared the hell out of it out
of the movie theater.

Speaker 12 (43:14):
And even when I've seen it a couple of times
on what I call ordinary freeview TV, the green Face
still sort of gives me the willies.

Speaker 2 (43:22):
Okay, So pleased to hear.

Speaker 12 (43:25):
Yes, Okay, So I haven't bothered thing about it. I
saw snow White, and for what it was. I quite
enjoyed it. They are the songs and that were all good.
Part of the main reason I went to see till
Hong was to see Gal.

Speaker 2 (43:38):
Yes, Galgao. What role does she play?

Speaker 12 (43:41):
Well, she's the she married. She is in reality like
the stepmother. But she's a bit of a wicked stepmother.
And of course you only skin wise you see her
face and her hands, and then later on she has
old ugly hands. So that's all you see.

Speaker 2 (44:00):
It is she she found some anti aging serum with
the face or something.

Speaker 12 (44:05):
No, she is young like that, but but you know
she's all fully covered, not like when she's dressed up
as wonder woman.

Speaker 2 (44:14):
Oh, I see what you're saying. So you're disappointed by.

Speaker 12 (44:17):
That, well part of it looking woman, that's right, yes,
And I'm just trying to think. What is the name
of the other main actress in it.

Speaker 2 (44:29):
Well, she's the one that controversies that they seem to
be entirely blaming her for the flop of the movie.
Her name is Rachel Ziggler.

Speaker 12 (44:37):
Oh that's right here. Yeah, they keep on calling her
some certain name because she got slightly off white colored skin.
I keep hearing the remarks and the radio during the
week's on.

Speaker 2 (44:52):
Which station are they complaining about his skin? That seems
a weird thing to say.

Speaker 12 (44:56):
Well, her nationality sort of South America. I think I
can't think of the name of the country they were saying,
but Columbia, is it? Yea Columbia, that's right.

Speaker 2 (45:11):
Yeah, mother, her mother is of Colombian descent, which you
didn't think. You wouldn't think that should prevent it from
playing snow White though, should you not?

Speaker 12 (45:19):
Really? No, she's quite a petite woman. She sings okay
the musical. Yeah, it's a musical with the seven dwarfs
in it, but I think they're sort of computer generated.
But they're all okay the songs they sing. Don't ask
me what the seven names are except for grumpy, dopey
and whatever.

Speaker 2 (45:39):
So what's the plot?

Speaker 12 (45:41):
The plot is more or less the same as the
original snow White, just slight deviations.

Speaker 2 (45:48):
Yeah, what was the What was the plot of the original?

Speaker 12 (45:54):
No, well, it's really in the movie anyway. I think
that would be the original plot where the mother the
father know her mother dies in the film she gets
worn during the snow in a horse and carriage in
the carriage and that's and that's why original mother calls

(46:16):
her snow snow white. But anyway, her mother dies. It
doesn't really show her mother dying except that you know
that she is dead. And if her father marries gal Gatto, she's.

Speaker 2 (46:29):
The wicked step but she's the evil stepmother that trope.

Speaker 12 (46:32):
Yeah, that's right. Yeah, so it's it's more or less
the same sort of line of story, except slight deviation,
but some pieces, but it's all okay for what it is.
They's a musical.

Speaker 2 (46:44):
That so many many there, Calvin, I'll give.

Speaker 12 (46:48):
You one guess. If you guess correctly, you win the prize.

Speaker 2 (46:51):
Okay, what's the prize? That bottle of whiskey?

Speaker 12 (46:54):
No, that's still here unopened?

Speaker 11 (46:56):
Is it?

Speaker 2 (46:56):
Were you the only were you the only one there?

Speaker 12 (47:00):
Yes, in the But the good thing is you haven't
got any bus and sitting next to you ratting around.

Speaker 2 (47:14):
On their phone or leaning back on the chair or
talking loudly or.

Speaker 12 (47:19):
But sometimes it's just very good because I normally, you know,
when I go to the movies, I leave my car
at home, which, by the way, just had the wheel
alignment done a couple of days ago, and I knew
warrant about a week ago.

Speaker 2 (47:30):
Yeah, you must be in sick with me. I had
when you warrant and for new ties yesterday.

Speaker 12 (47:35):
Yeah. Anyway, so normally I'll leave McCart home and get
the bus. I've got two different buses outside my place.
One's the Suburban Orbiter and the other one is the Meteor, which.

Speaker 2 (47:48):
Goes on the bus casp Oh.

Speaker 12 (47:52):
Yeah, yeah, I'm a bussy. But well, but what I
was going to say to you is, so on a Tuesday,
when I go to the movies, I normally go and
my chaff had driven stretched limousine. Yes, that's them.

Speaker 2 (48:06):
Yeah, it sounds good.

Speaker 12 (48:08):
Well, you probably call it a bush. But and what
I was going to say is quite often I can
be the only one on the bus apart from the driver.
I go to the movies and I'm the only one
in the theater. And sometimes when I've gone, I used
to go to the the what's the gambling place here?
The casino?

Speaker 2 (48:25):
How about what the casino?

Speaker 12 (48:26):
What is it called?

Speaker 2 (48:28):
No, it's neither river. Is it called the Riverside casino?

Speaker 12 (48:32):
Yeah? The casino is the wead. I's trying to think
of something that I've been in there of the restaurant
on the only one in the restaurant.

Speaker 2 (48:39):
Well, then I imagine if you're getting on the bus
and you're the only one, you're sitting right next to
the driver and chewing his ear off. And I got
that right now.

Speaker 12 (48:47):
You're quite wrong as usual. Now about a third of
the way back, when you're when you're enter the bus
and walking along, I'll be on the left hand side.

Speaker 2 (48:55):
But you like a conversation. You like a conversation, don't you.

Speaker 12 (48:59):
Oh yeah, this is part of the reason why I
ring up ZB now and again.

Speaker 2 (49:04):
But you're not with the bus driver.

Speaker 12 (49:08):
No, I no. Sometimes I do have a discussion with him,
but not right up close and I'm next to him.
But I call out from halfway down the bus coll
you do.

Speaker 2 (49:15):
I can see it.

Speaker 12 (49:17):
You do.

Speaker 2 (49:18):
That's brilliant, It's priceless, skelvin. Someone says Marcus, I don't
understand how people can say the original snow write was ruined.
It still exists, doesn't it. The new version is not
compulsory viewing. Extremely good point, Andre Marcus. Welcome, Hello, it's
going good. Thank you.

Speaker 18 (49:34):
Yeah. So the problem with this new it's not movie.
It's the fact that the main one of the main
leads has gone on all these national programs and said
or interviews and said all these weird things, and people
are now not actually wanting to go to watch.

Speaker 2 (49:49):
The No, what I was saying. What I was saying
was what people think of the movie if it's any good.

Speaker 13 (49:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 18 (49:57):
Well, here's the thing. I'm a thirty year old male.
I haven't seen the original snow White. I've seen what
it looks like. No, I haven't known. Why were I want?

Speaker 19 (50:08):
I was movie?

Speaker 2 (50:09):
Why would you want?

Speaker 18 (50:10):
And I'm not Why would I want to watch snow White?
It's a girls movie, it's about a girl fairy tale.
It's not interesting to males. So don't they tame with
the Snow White movie that was going to be the
the new generation of a Disney movie that would get
all this million dollars of box office reviews and all
this ship.

Speaker 2 (50:29):
Oh no, sorry, just careful the careful the language.

Speaker 20 (50:35):
Sorry.

Speaker 2 (50:38):
Yeah, I'm a farmer. But Andre, hang on, hang on,
because you're coming in at a bit where it's a
kids film. Yeah, it's not for you, there'll be no
real I'm just curious if anyone's seen it. And I
think kids, kids films aren't for boys or girls.

Speaker 18 (50:56):
I agree.

Speaker 2 (50:57):
Here's something yeah, you're just cutting off. Sorry, what heavened
your line?

Speaker 19 (51:03):
Andre?

Speaker 6 (51:04):
Wow?

Speaker 2 (51:05):
But anyway, goodness, it feels like this has become a
symbol for something else can't beat. Calvin made My Night
co host. You should give him to co host Kelvin,
the ultimate backseat driver. You know full well that Kelvin's
talk bus heda. He helped me on the bus today.

(51:29):
I wasn't sure I was going to take the metroliner
or the Orbiter. Saw the promo for snow White today
when we saw Tina. Now that's a movie to see.
Don't know if you have already discussed this. Recommended Jay.
Everyone that's called the show that Santina has loved it. First.

(51:55):
I've heard someone swear and say it's because I'm a farmer. Brilliant,
but listen to him. Wow, woy. Get in touch if
you want to talk. One name is Marcus. Welcome hitdle twelve.
Looking forward to your calls. Help with your language too.

(52:15):
I went to see snow White on ice many years
ago out at Monaco City. Things. Oh quite often they
came and did that. Ah haha. Well I thought he
said he was a father when he swore, I guess
farmer makes more sense. Great show tonight for entertaining Marcus.
I went with my daughter and fourteen and ten year

(52:36):
old granddaughters on the weekend, only ten other people in
the theater. Was like going to a local amateur theater
show with the acting and singing, very professional, same vibe,
real fashion, as long as you know what to expect.
It's fine. Kids totally bored and gave it four out
of ten. What's the cheapest buss, Calvin, I'm sure probably

(52:58):
they're both free with a pension his card. That would
be my decision. I think you'd enjoy Wicked. It's Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 6 (53:09):
Oh hi, good evening. I also know why recently and
I absolutely loved it.

Speaker 2 (53:17):
When what where did you see it?

Speaker 6 (53:20):
I just sawt of Hoyat's because I watched a lot
of movies.

Speaker 2 (53:24):
But it's only about a week. It's about a day
or two, has it?

Speaker 14 (53:30):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (53:30):
No, it's been around for a while. But obviously, like
you know, everyone's running around saying how bad it is
or and most of them haven't even seen it and
all kind of going on.

Speaker 2 (53:41):
No, I think I think I think very few have
seen it. I think people have picked up some American
narrative that people want to say that it's yeah.

Speaker 6 (53:51):
Yeah, yeah, I don't know what it is. I just
went and kind of judged it as any other movie,
and you know, and a lot of movies playing at
the moment, it seems to be a lot better. I
wasn't board. It's a short and sweet movie, and I
absolutely enjoyed it. I didn't know everything about snow White,

(54:11):
just like one of your previous schoolers, you know, like
I didn't know the entire story. I think that probably helped,
because then you're not bored, you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (54:21):
Yeah, absolutely, I don't even know. I don't even know
what happens at the end of snow White. What happens?
Does she find some prince charming?

Speaker 6 (54:29):
Yeah? I mean it was all to do with the
wicked queen or something, and then you know, yeah, she
kind of just gets back into the castle and takes
over the castle and gets rid of the queen.

Speaker 2 (54:42):
Okay, and the queen of course the queen. The Queen's
a stepmother, as they always are, aren't they.

Speaker 6 (54:48):
Yeah. Yeah, so it was actually really well done, you know,
just just as a movie, like I don't I don't
really get into the politics of it.

Speaker 2 (54:58):
But that's what was so weird about Andre that was
so coming and strong about the movie but determined not
to you know, so it was just bizarre.

Speaker 6 (55:11):
Well, yeah, I don't know what's happened with the politics
around it, but I watched most luck I'm actually just
going to watch another movie.

Speaker 1 (55:18):
Now.

Speaker 6 (55:18):
There's another movie that's come out today, is No Pain
or whatever?

Speaker 2 (55:24):
Not the minecraft one, No.

Speaker 6 (55:27):
No Overtain, No Pain or whatever it is?

Speaker 2 (55:30):
What's that about?

Speaker 6 (55:31):
But I don't. I just go to every movie that's
playing pretty much. And yeah, I'm just I'm a movie
buff and I'm not into streaming, so I like to
support and unfortunately a lot of times it's just me
and there. Yeah, sounds a bit insane.

Speaker 2 (55:51):
He's a guy that can't feel pain.

Speaker 6 (55:55):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't. I don't watch
trailers because I go to them. You know, once the
movie is started, you see, you know, after twenty five
minutes or.

Speaker 2 (56:06):
How do you time that, right, carm.

Speaker 6 (56:10):
Well, I mean it started at nine point fifteen, you know,
and by the time they pray the tailors and ads
and everything, it's just ridiculous, Like sometimes it's twenty five
minutes and even at this time of the night. They
just like I've told them, why don't you reduce it, like,
you know, when it's getting late, because you're losing twenty
five minutes, you know, and it's going to be at

(56:33):
midnight or something, and they just don't listen, you know,
So what can you do? Just I just walk in there,
but you have to go in there like thirty minutes before,
and especially if it's the last one they're playing. If
you go the you know, a little bit too late,
they just like, oh no, the counters are closed and
we can't, you know, let you in sort of thing,

(56:54):
you know, yeah.

Speaker 2 (57:00):
What gets out, leave it to you. Let's know what
Novacane's like. I feel I've got to get back into
the movies actually, although I'm quite sure when I supposed
to go. I've always got the kids after school and
doing family stuff and also too during the day. You
always feel a bit guilty go to the movies during
the day, but sort of, yeah, it's not my thing.

(57:22):
In fact, the last time I went to the movies
in Vicago and the day it was a mums and
bub session, which I thought was a bit I didn't
know it was a mums and bub session. I don't
know what they've got the light they've got the lights on.
I don't know what that's about. So the kids don't
get fright, is that what it's about? Is it still
a thing mums and bubs days? I feel a bit weird.

(57:43):
It was a born conspiracy movie. It was about twenty
year ago. To be fair, Jesse Marcus, welcome, okod Hey
are you good? Jesse?

Speaker 21 (57:52):
Are yourself good spirits?

Speaker 22 (57:55):
Come home?

Speaker 23 (57:57):
Wow?

Speaker 9 (57:59):
You can hear me loud and clear, perfect.

Speaker 24 (58:02):
So you're worrying about the white movie and what it's
like compared to the old ones used to.

Speaker 2 (58:08):
Be Like, No, Jessee, I've just asked people what the
movie's like.

Speaker 3 (58:13):
Oh, it's not a fan.

Speaker 24 (58:16):
Not a fan. I had my eight year old daughter
and she only lived through the first twenty minutes of it.

Speaker 2 (58:21):
Wow too young?

Speaker 13 (58:22):
Yeah, sorry you go?

Speaker 2 (58:25):
Was she too young?

Speaker 24 (58:28):
I don't think it's more too young. I think it's
the fact that it's a musical. But a lot of
them are musicals these days, and I know the traditional
snow white used to be the fairest of them all
when it kind of didn't play back off the snow
white things, so it wasn't action like doesn't eight year
old girls.

Speaker 9 (58:44):
She saw like some action, but.

Speaker 2 (58:46):
The original wasn't action packed.

Speaker 4 (58:49):
Was it?

Speaker 11 (58:50):
No?

Speaker 24 (58:51):
No, But when it came to the Evil Witch, the Mirror,
the Seven Dwarfs, like they were really animated, but it
just didn't have the keep you enticed to keep watching
it sort of thing you got with all the old
classic doesn't He's like, we watching Fussa probably two days afterwards, yep,
And that one just seemed a lot more interesting and

(59:14):
you got more into it. Better storyline, the graphics, the
details were a lot better as well, because.

Speaker 2 (59:21):
It's got that animals, doesn't it. People ride to animals, right,
that's the Lion King.

Speaker 11 (59:24):
Ah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (59:26):
Because I think that's what he's doing. They do like
they're doing live action versions of all the animated ones,
but that the whole thing seems to have run out
of steam, doesn't it.

Speaker 3 (59:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 24 (59:37):
Yeah, it's kind of the old I don't know how
people are, but the old classic that used to watch
at home with your pearance on the weekend, and it's
just remake after remake and it's just slowly losing its
its original one I reckon.

Speaker 2 (59:52):
The best of the remakes is The Jungle Book and
Pete's Dragon or Cinderella.

Speaker 24 (59:57):
I haven't seen Pete Dragon Jungle Book was good because
I watched that with her as well. All Petez Dragon
Cinderella wasn't too bad. She got into that quite a bit.
It was more enticing, kept her on it. But Yees,
snow White just didn't seem to keep my attention all
hers as well. The Apress is a good singer, don't

(01:00:20):
get me wrong, and she made a character. Well, it
just didn't have it.

Speaker 2 (01:00:23):
Okay, appreciate that, JESSI thank you, thanks for coming through.
They I actually thought the only one I've seen recently
was one hundred and one Damnation One, which I thought
was pretty good. I think Glenn Close was fantastic in
that A hundred one Dumbatians. It was quite moving actually,

(01:00:44):
although it's not rated by Rotten Tomatoes for their remakes
or for their maker lives or whatever they are called.
Keep your text coming through. Two people surprised how much.
I well, that was good. A few people with comments.
And Andre Marcus, my sister has a polaroid camera. You

(01:01:08):
have to shake the photo then let it dry. That's right,
like the song. Shake it, shake it like a polaroid picture. Marcus,
lovely warm evening here in Lawrence. Well, it was twenty
five degrees and in the cargoo today and Bluff when
I came to work it was still twenty two degrees. Marcus,

(01:01:28):
lovely warm evening here in Lawrence, just coming inside of
having a capetina hot cross. Bunon was watching satellites crossing
the sky. Can't believe how many are up there going
in all directions. Gordo, enjoying your show, Marcus. It's funny
how Matthew calls himself a movie buff and he never
seen Snow White. I'm sure most kids from the seventies

(01:01:49):
have seen the movie. I loved it when I was
a kid. Well, Andre, if you're talking about it, he
didn't see it because it's a girl's movie. Weird, Marcus,
Lex was cool last night. I have worked with Robert
the Bruce another on the matt character. I'm not across this,

(01:02:10):
but someone's emailing me about this. It seems as though
what Trump has also done has levied attacks on goods
from Ali Barber and Shine and Temu, and a thirty
percent tax rate for all goods under eight hundred dollars

(01:02:33):
from an overseas company shipped to a private address in
the US, because I am sure there is all sorts
of businesses that are involved with getting cheap stuff from
Temu and repackaging them or reselling them in some sort
of a way. So yeah, mind you, a lot of
the Temu stuff thirty percent next was not going to
result in much more money. But yeah, that's probably a

(01:02:55):
pretty important loophole to close down. Although I guess they
could have different places they ship from. I don't know
how they'll get around that. I mean, no one dedvocated
to do that in New Zealand. I think we should
be glad about that. But yes, hey, twelve away from ten,

(01:03:16):
anyone else got anything else too, they want to say tonight,
I don't know what we'll pivot to after ten o'clock.
We are talking about photos. Anyone still use a camera?
And what's the advantages for that? You got some information
about that because we just are so wedded to our
cell phone camera. I think the next time I get
a cell phone, and I probably am in the market
for one now because my one's on a ghost slow

(01:03:38):
I know that's build an obsolescence. I will probably go
for one that's a very good camera and an okay phone.
I don't spend a long time on the phone. We're
now I'm on the phone. It feels like work, is
that you, Stephen, Yeah, that's what it's like. So the
camera will probably be best for me. But do get

(01:03:59):
in touch. My name is Marcus. Welcome, oh eight hundred
and eighty ten eighty always up a traffic update. Also,
I say it's more concerned about justin bieber.

Speaker 6 (01:04:13):
Well.

Speaker 2 (01:04:14):
Leon, it's Marcus. Good evening, you know magazine?

Speaker 22 (01:04:17):
How are you mate?

Speaker 2 (01:04:18):
Good? Thanks?

Speaker 23 (01:04:19):
Leon?

Speaker 2 (01:04:19):
What do you got to report?

Speaker 22 (01:04:21):
So just murmur from the northern end of remember right
through to the force sweep you know where that is?
I went road coats set up for road works. It's
about a three four k distance that way till I said,
oh way too.

Speaker 2 (01:04:35):
Are you are you coming up from the mounta or
where you're hitting?

Speaker 22 (01:04:39):
I'm in down the wheat and I'm hearing back up
to walking. Ye, just with with your call with the
follow entrede markets hit and now right on there so
much children's is ankles.

Speaker 19 (01:04:54):
Yeah, I mean I remember last I'm getting on a
little bit and you know I loved it, not so
much for the snow and so before the the Seven Dwarfs,
I mean, you know, through the supers, all these emotions
of the young kids.

Speaker 22 (01:05:06):
You know, happiness, grabbing, it's all of them. It was
great and I think.

Speaker 10 (01:05:11):
It's one of the presents of.

Speaker 22 (01:05:13):
I'm surprisingly these a lot were younger than worry, but
some of them I didn't, you know, obviously the only
loss of the three dwors when there's a whole list
of movies that I kind of grew up and you
would have done.

Speaker 11 (01:05:26):
Here, you know, I think.

Speaker 2 (01:05:29):
I hadn't thought of that, Leon, that you talk about
all the Dwarfs and actually helping you understand your emotions
and your feelings. I've never already thought about that, but
that's probably quite a probably quite a on the button
interpretation of that one.

Speaker 22 (01:05:43):
So obviously classics. So it surprises me a lot of people, don't.
I just new one nowaday. I mean, I probably won't
go and see. But it was my graduate because the musical,
and I guess because nowadays that are pretty spot for
their choice. But kids and.

Speaker 2 (01:05:59):
Leon, kids watch movies differently these days because they'll watch
a movie and then I'll watch it every day. You know,
whereas we were, we never had that option, did we No, No,
that's that's right.

Speaker 22 (01:06:10):
But I'm still a time. But this weekend I'm probably
gonna watch the old Vison that's beginning of this because
all these fantastic memories when we're young, you know, and
in my case, my parents are still alive in you know,
and yeah, just great memories that I lived with that
movie and a lot of other movies as well.

Speaker 2 (01:06:27):
It's really nice to talk Leon for a bit of
common Scen's appreciate it. Thank you brilliant here no midnight.
My name is Marcus. Welcome. Oh eight hundred and eighty
to eighty ten eighty can I say that? Nine two
nine two to text. And I'm going to watch the
Doors movie today. In respect to Vel Kilma. By the way,
I don't want to just get into conspiracies because it's

(01:06:49):
not my stock in trade. However, the Jim Morrison's not
Dead conspiracy is quite a good one. There's quite a
lot of there's a new documentary about that and Sealed
Coffin Doctor that the Autopsy. It's quite good. It's on

(01:07:16):
Apple TV plus before the end Searching for Jim Morrison
only in the spring of seventy one, the singer decided
to take a break from doors to pursue poetry under
James Douglas Morrison and DeCamp to Paris with his girlfriend,
Pamela Corson. Only four months later, July third, my birthday,

(01:07:37):
she discovered his body in the bathtub of the apartment
of the singer was buried a couple of days later.
His death certificate stated he had experienced heart failure, but
Finn had questions. Why was no autopsy performed, Who was
doctor Max Fassel, the man who llegedly signed the certificate,
and why couldn't he be found after the fact, Why
was Morrison's coffin sealed, Why was his American passport never recovered?

(01:08:05):
And what about the thing is purported desire commented on
by more than one friend, to fake his own death
and shed his burdensome rock star persona. Yeah, so you
might have read No One Gets out of Here Alive.

(01:08:27):
You might have had read Wonderland Avenue, which was a
pretty remarkable book. But look, if you are someone that
is a Jim Morrison truther, well have I got the
opportunity for you to talk on the show Love a Conspiracy?
Because you watch those movies and the more you watch them,
the more you believe it. Marcus, A lot of public

(01:08:49):
bathrooms are constantly leaking water. I reported them because every
drop is pacious, precious, and water is scarce. Love a conspiracy,
I'm starting to doubt that, Marcus. Oh, no, I do.
I like the way. I mean, the human mind is
a fascinating thing. Yeah, I just like, like even with JF. Car,

(01:09:12):
Like when you start looking at the boundaries, there's all
sorts of things that become Yeah, I mean the trouble
of the conspiracy, it's hard to when four hundred thousand
people are involved with getting nearl Armstrong to the moons,
all be hard to buy four hundred thousand people's silence.
If you want to fake someone's death, it would just
be him and his partner and maybe the fake doctor,

(01:09:41):
which could have been the partner. So the less people
involved with the conspiracy, the more believable it might happen.
Persistent heavy rain and wind at one tree pointed to
a kaka. Well, he's an interesting text. Since the cell
phone ban in schools, point and shoot cameras are making
a resurgent with teens. They are bringing them to school

(01:10:03):
to take photos. Evening our ten year old son Ethan
is doing a photographer course called a match in eight,
a charity where they take photos of environmental issues and
exhibit the best of these shots. They are encouraging the
children of the value of printing photos for exhibitions. Our
son loves doing old school photos. If you actually print

(01:10:28):
the photos you take on your phone, you will realize
the value of importance of an actual camera. If you
zoom on your photos, you lose all quality, but not
in a camera. The photos always look good on your
phone screen, but you don't realize a lack of quality.
End you'll print them. Marcus Sealed coffins are sometimes mandatory,
such as for international travel or some medical conditions including

(01:10:52):
radiation a bowler and HIV deaths during the first decades
of that disease. What I put Jim Morrison in one
Marcus needs to have safety coffins with a breathing tub
and strings to pull bells and many other devices. Marcus
even listened to the audiobook Tower fifty seven to wild

(01:11:14):
dystopian sci fi, said around a late night radio show
in Roswell, New Mexico, feels like blade run against from
Tropolis with a noa twist listening to your show reminds
me of it. You'll dig it, Mike l Thank you, Mike.
Never heard of that. I think that's right in my
bread basket. So Jim Morrison, the death and taking photos

(01:11:41):
with a camera rather than the phone. When was the
last time you did it? And how good is snow white?
That's what we've got the starters for tonight. If you
want to talk about tariffs, so yes, we don't the
If we're expoding goods to the States, nothing changes as

(01:12:05):
far as the amount get for them is the same.
If you're selling rump steak at twenty bucks akilo, you'll
still get rump steak for twenty bucks akilo. But if
they're selling in the States for ten dollars American, it'll
now be eleven dollars American and a dollar will go
to the US government. That's how tariffs work. It's a tax,

(01:12:30):
and I think once upon a time in America most
of their taxes were gathered that way, and I think
something that this might be the end of income tax
because it can all be just tax via tariffs. Of course,
it won't work that way because it's inflationary, and so
many of those American companies send all their jobs offshore

(01:12:51):
because it was cheaper, and now they're trying to get
all the jobs back. But it takes a long long
time to build factories and supply chains. Is the work
I'm looking for. There we go. That's what right about tonight, Gwyneth,
Good evening. My button's not good. Hang on, just going

(01:13:12):
to click this a bit better. Hi, Gwyneth, it's Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 23 (01:13:16):
Oh good Marcus. You said that in you know, any
subject will go. So I've written. I've phoned in to
tell you and the listeners about my latest novel that's
just arrived, just come out. So is that all right?

(01:13:38):
An alright subject?

Speaker 2 (01:13:39):
Or have you written it? Yes, I'll I'll be honored
to talk about that.

Speaker 23 (01:13:46):
Well, it's just come out. It was published in London.
It's my fourth novel, but my eleventh book, and it's
called Awaken Slumbering Souls, and my pen name is Cully

(01:14:10):
Proser Jones. Yeah, yeah, and it's about reincarnation. It's a novel,
but it's about reincarnation, and I just thought that people
might be interested. It's out now and it can mostly
be got on Amazon and all those But I believe

(01:14:33):
a couple of the bookshops have taken. I think paper
Plus is one.

Speaker 2 (01:14:40):
Wow. So you said so all your books books written
under Kelly Proser Jones. Is that what you said?

Speaker 23 (01:14:48):
No, this is the first one written under Cully Posta Jones.
But prior to that, I had a pen name of
Rosalie Brooks, and I wrote a couple of novels under that.
But prior to that, again, I wrote four books in

(01:15:12):
the set and the Large r A four's.

Speaker 10 (01:15:16):
And they they.

Speaker 23 (01:15:19):
Record the history of the y Katter coal mines from
the time they opened, you know, when the eighteen hundreds. Yes,
and so I've written four they're all in the in
the archives, and that they hold copies.

Speaker 2 (01:15:37):
Did you grow did you grow up in those towns?

Speaker 23 (01:15:42):
Yes? Yes, I knew a lot about but I did
a lot of researching too. It took a lot of
researching of this. The four books, the first one is
about the Pokemero and Glen Afton mines, the second one
is about the Glen Massey Minds, the third ones about
the Rota Warram mines, and the fourth one is about

(01:16:04):
the Humpy mines.

Speaker 2 (01:16:08):
Wow.

Speaker 23 (01:16:09):
Yeah, so and since then and the first novel I
wrote in the name Rosalie Brooks was about growing up
in a coal mining era during the war. Yes, because
you know the coal miners worked double shifts and all that.
Then they were very brave actually, because if we had

(01:16:31):
been bombed here during that Second War, they never would
have gone out from underground. And so I wrote a
book about that, which was very well received. And then
I decided to write this one about reincarnation because so
many people seemed to be interested in it. And it's

(01:16:55):
set in England in the eighteen hundreds when the Gypsies
were traveling around in England. And then it comes forward
to the nineteen sixties in New Zealand to the souls

(01:17:16):
who have awoken from their slumberings beginning to notice strange things.
And they are both in the Air Force in New Zealand.
It's a typical New Zealand book.

Speaker 2 (01:17:31):
No, it sounds like a fantastic plot device. Why do
you change your pen name so often?

Speaker 23 (01:17:36):
No, I don't change it often. Most of my things
are written in my own name, which is Gwynus Jones.

Speaker 2 (01:17:45):
Yes, and then.

Speaker 23 (01:17:46):
I had an idea to write a novel which is
set in a coal mining area, and I had to
pluck a name out of the air and I plucked
out Rosalie Brooks. I don't know why that I did. However,
I constantly fell that that wasn't the correct name for me.

(01:18:10):
So now that I've done this one, and I've got
another one which has just gone over to London, so
I've changed my name to Cully Prosa. James.

Speaker 2 (01:18:21):
Were you always a right Gwyneth? Was that your career?

Speaker 23 (01:18:25):
No, I had no career. I was taken away from
school at thirteen and had to work on a farm.
I'm eighty eight.

Speaker 2 (01:18:37):
Goodness, and.

Speaker 23 (01:18:40):
So I didn't I haven't even got a school certificate.

Speaker 2 (01:18:43):
What did you do?

Speaker 21 (01:18:44):
What did you do?

Speaker 2 (01:18:46):
What did what did you do? After the farm?

Speaker 23 (01:18:49):
Well, I left it as soon as I could get
away and I went. I worked for a couple of
years on the Pappatoe Telephone Exchange when we had telephone exchange,
and then from there I joined the Air Force in
the communications section, and then I got married to an

(01:19:13):
Emmon and we went over It was the time of
the uprising in Malaya and we had troops over in Singapore,
and so we spent three years over there in Tanga
in Singapore, and then when we came back to New Zealand,
and of course there was children by this time. But

(01:19:38):
all my life, from the time I was little, I
have spoken in rime. I say things in rime, and
I've always told stories. I've always had stories, having a
great imagination.

Speaker 2 (01:19:55):
But it that way is reincarnation something that is that
you believe in or is it just that you found
other people interested in it?

Speaker 23 (01:20:04):
No, it's something I believe. And there's well, these books
have to be in the front, they have to have that.
It's nobody that you know.

Speaker 2 (01:20:18):
That's right, it's all it's all factician that doesn't resemble
any years, but there is.

Speaker 23 (01:20:24):
I have drawn on elements of things I know, so
I'll just put it that way.

Speaker 2 (01:20:31):
Absolutely fascinating. Gw Ethan, thank you. I've got to run
for commercials, but I really appreciate your calling. I'll Pete
Marcus welcome. Hi, Pete, so hold your horses. But I
got a little bit of trouble with the damn button,
are you right?

Speaker 11 (01:20:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:20:45):
I Pete Marcus welcome here.

Speaker 3 (01:20:48):
Yea who the old saying? Sometime's old? You just better
than no news?

Speaker 2 (01:20:53):
Yes, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:20:55):
So basically I'll go down the Haar every fortnight down
there and and your your your reception is really good.
And I've always been down there for last couple of year.
Is always go down every every fortnight. And it's ninety
six point four and I was coming back tonight. I
don't know what happened, but I mentioned I could hear
you vaguely in and out or some prior to the

(01:21:16):
other guy that was on, and he said that there
must be something on with the reception. So it was
pretty hard to sort of pick up your station. I
just thought I'd pass it on to you. And then
I thought a better pull over for him, or maybe
my body auriels come off or something, and that's something
like that can't happen, you know, an old car, ninety
ninety eight model, and I thought a bit of chicken

(01:21:37):
might have fallen off or something, and I don't I'll pull
over and it but looking off for I checked it
out and all this, but it's a bit loose of
oh well, sure, actually someways on pleas I did so.
I actually it was quite loose. I pulled it out anyway,
and just so in somebody, is that what your reception
was bad? It didn't me a favor. I might have
lost me Ariels so I hope, I hope to work

(01:21:57):
on that tomorrow. But it was quite bad, so you
don't know what it was. But then if I took
the area all off and then you get vaguely it
sort of improve, but it was still quite hard. Only
just got home now and it was still quite bad
to get your reception at ninety six point four. So
I just want well, I passed it on to you
lest your people know that there was a problem last

(01:22:18):
night or tonight.

Speaker 2 (01:22:19):
You've been an eventful night.

Speaker 3 (01:22:22):
Oh yeah, very exciting.

Speaker 2 (01:22:24):
It was what's what's? What's what happens every fortnight that
you go down south?

Speaker 3 (01:22:30):
Uh, we've got I shouldn't say it because I might
the prices might go up for me. But they have
an auction that you might have heard of, an auction
in horror every fortnight you had the heard of that? No,
never heard of auctions in horror? No, never, No, it's
called Quinn's auctions.

Speaker 2 (01:22:49):
Well I would, I wouldn't. I wouldn't make this up.
Is it like general goods everything?

Speaker 3 (01:22:55):
What you know? You can any antique stuff or basically
what it is that you have people they gave over
seas or states sales and they go and then they
get the house a lot rerely say this is my
price and say this my prices might go at Marx
might be a bad thing for me.

Speaker 2 (01:23:13):
But that might be good at means they might get
more goods to auction.

Speaker 3 (01:23:18):
Well in some ways you've got to think on the
positive side, don't we hear? But it's quite good. You go,
you go on facebooks, you go on there. Quinn's auctions
every fortnight Thursday from eleven o'clock. And the things they
go on line, is you a week prior? They have
all the items that's on Facebook. You will even you'll

They had one thing there and old you and knew
he very old you, and you were nui the old
township years back back in the early fifties fifteen sixties
where the road is now. That wasn't on there. So
so one paid one hundred and thirty.

Speaker 2 (01:25:46):
For that Pete nice to talk. Thanks. So they found
out a window to the rural New Zealand. Mike, it's Marcus, welcome, Hello, Marcus.

Speaker 20 (01:25:56):
How are you doing good?

Speaker 2 (01:25:57):
Thank you, Mike. How are you doing all right?

Speaker 11 (01:25:59):
Yeah?

Speaker 13 (01:25:59):
Good good.

Speaker 20 (01:26:00):
And I've got a little little story which textually happened,
and it's old zero G, a brownie box camera, an
orange zas cat and the seven three seven one.

Speaker 2 (01:26:13):
Well did I hear zero G? Like zero gravity?

Speaker 20 (01:26:18):
Zero gravity? Y?

Speaker 2 (01:26:19):
Yeah, okay, good, I'm already all right.

Speaker 20 (01:26:22):
Okay mate. Instead of going to Scouts, we joined the
Air Training Corps, Yes, which was run by the RANGEZA. Anyway,
they had this weekend where they were going to take
a seven three seven walking to Hamilton and it was
not going to be any usual flight. It would be

(01:26:44):
a mixture of typetoon, zero G experience and a few
other things. So anyway, we were seated on the SECRA
What arere were talking, Well, we're talking about seventy eight.

Speaker 2 (01:26:58):
And there was an in New Zealand seven three seven
or the ifs had their own.

Speaker 20 (01:27:03):
No, it wasn AC okay, yep too. Yeah, so we
did a few type guns and anyway, my mate next
to me, we had a Brownie box camera sitting on
his lap and I had my Air Force cat sitting
on my lap. And you might remember in your Larhstrong's
experiment on the Moon when he was there and he

(01:27:24):
dropped a feather and a hammer at the same time
and they both hit the ground at the same time.
They demonstrate the mask didn't matter well, which was almost
G on the Moon. Okay, So the pilot then took
the aircraft out into a parabolic curve right straight up
over the top and as we went over the top,

(01:27:46):
zerog was we experienced zero G and I watched this
camera and my cat just raise up off our laps
at the same time.

Speaker 18 (01:27:59):
It was amazing. It was just like whoa.

Speaker 20 (01:28:04):
But he had to grab it quickly because as he
came out. Yeah, everybody came into force.

Speaker 2 (01:28:09):
I can't believe they would have done that within the
New Zealand at n A seven three seven.

Speaker 3 (01:28:15):
Get they did it.

Speaker 2 (01:28:16):
It was it just it just for Air Training Corps.

Speaker 19 (01:28:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 20 (01:28:20):
Yeah, but there was one passenger on board for the
baby and I looked and I thought, we're supposed to have.

Speaker 13 (01:28:28):
This aircraft.

Speaker 20 (01:28:32):
Anyway. It must have been warned about it. And I thought, yeah, no,
that's all good.

Speaker 7 (01:28:37):
It did.

Speaker 2 (01:28:39):
What was the turner did to get zero G's it did?
It didn't do a loop the loop.

Speaker 18 (01:28:44):
No, no, no, no.

Speaker 20 (01:28:46):
It's called a parabolic gloves. The aircraft dives down, picks
up speed, then is pulled up into the vertical almost
and then the noses dropped forward and as you go
over that curve, which is the parabolic serve zero G.

Speaker 2 (01:29:05):
Kickson, they just do the one parabolic cove, well.

Speaker 20 (01:29:11):
Just the one, the one amazing experience, really very amazing,
And I thought immediately to myself, well the Alarmstrong was right.

Speaker 18 (01:29:22):
Yeah, yeah, the mass doesn't matter.

Speaker 2 (01:29:25):
Did they did they do that every year?

Speaker 20 (01:29:29):
No? No, it was the one soot goodness.

Speaker 2 (01:29:34):
Did you have to pay to go on it?

Speaker 22 (01:29:36):
Yeah?

Speaker 20 (01:29:36):
It was twenty bucks worth it. Yeah, it's pretty good.

Speaker 2 (01:29:43):
Did the guy take any did the guy take any
photos on his brownie?

Speaker 21 (01:29:49):
Well?

Speaker 20 (01:29:50):
After we're in zero g Well he had.

Speaker 2 (01:29:53):
On the trip he takes I was just trying to
figure out what he takes shots of, and it's on
the trip.

Speaker 4 (01:29:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 20 (01:29:58):
Yeah, and while we'll Hamilton Airport and they are refueling
it and then we're kind of head back. Goodness, So
all up, it was about forty five minutes.

Speaker 2 (01:30:12):
Great story, right, worth twenty bucks. Thank you. Twenty four
to eleven evening. Nelson has had to rent your rain
for the last hour or so, but has been constant
raining all day. Thanks for the So, how's the my tie?
Is it up? How's the river? It seems to be
about cameras And when was the last time you took
a photo that wasn't on a cell phone. That's one
of the topics for tonight. Tariffs. Do you understand how

(01:30:38):
tariffs work? We don't pay the money if you want
to buy a kilo of beef in America that cost
you twenty bucks. You pay two dollars to the American
government to buy that. It's added to the price, so
suddenly our meat is less competitive. Crazy times twenty two

(01:31:08):
away from eleven, Good evening, Roberts Marcus welcome.

Speaker 9 (01:31:12):
Yeah, how are you Marcus?

Speaker 2 (01:31:13):
Good? Thank you?

Speaker 3 (01:31:13):
Rob good?

Speaker 9 (01:31:15):
Yes, still talking about the greyhounds always.

Speaker 22 (01:31:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:31:18):
Look, I had a friend that used to go fifty
to fifty with a with a greyhound trainer here and
Parmeers the North, so hid by the dogs mainly out
of Victoria. So he'd pay about fifteen k for them,
but that's all he'd pay. And then he'd go fifty

(01:31:39):
fifty split to the money.

Speaker 2 (01:31:41):
The trainer would feed it and everything, and he'd just
at your chain cash and the money.

Speaker 9 (01:31:46):
Yes, yes, yes, that's how it worked. It was looking.
He was a retired school teacher and he actually he
was quite interesting. He went blind at fifty wow, and
he started breeding pacils and reading what places you know standardbreds? Yes, yeah,

(01:32:13):
and and yeah. So he started off with a mayor
mate and here and then yeah, he had reasonable success
for the next sort of thirty years and yeah, he
was completely blind. Wow, and yeah, he won many races.
His biggest race he won was it he won the
Country Cups final at Alexander Park. David Butcher drove his

(01:32:38):
horse and all his horses had had the name kie
Ka Rip in them. And yeah, and then he went
on when he moved from his little teen acre block
here just outside of Palmerston North, he moved to a
Juliet Wallace rest home and then he got into the

(01:32:58):
greyhound so he could sort of keep his hand in it.

Speaker 2 (01:33:03):
You give him an interest.

Speaker 9 (01:33:05):
Oh yeah, and i'd look, I'd drive him from Parmersan
North to Tofanganui. He'd have greyhounds racingly on the Friday
night and like like you said, it brought back memories
for me. You know when you were saying about how
how well run the Greyhound clubb I've.

Speaker 2 (01:33:24):
Been to the greyhounds and the cargo that was terrible.
But I'll tell you what that set up an that's
world class.

Speaker 9 (01:33:30):
It is. Look look the tracks, you know. Look, I've
had issues with the track. I'm not familiar with all
all of that sort of stuff that's sort of outside.
But the facilities there that the restaurant and the meals.
You could have the bar it was, and you were
right on the track. Yeah, absolutely, yeah, yeah, sitting there

(01:33:51):
and yeah, he used to enter into They used to
have punter competitions there and I'd fully at all his
bets for him, and yeah, you'd put five hundred dollars
on the pool and you could bet fifty dollars per
race over the ten racers, and he got fired, he
got food. The competition mustles that he fantastic.

Speaker 2 (01:34:12):
Now, tell me something wrong out of that seventeen thousand
he spent on the dog, how much did he get back?
Do you reckon?

Speaker 3 (01:34:18):
Look?

Speaker 9 (01:34:19):
Look, some of his dogs were quite successful. So some
of them won sixty to seventy K.

Speaker 2 (01:34:25):
Wow, he get thirty k. They'd be up for that, yes.

Speaker 9 (01:34:28):
Yes, yes, and then he'd reinvest again. But there wasn't
so much.

Speaker 11 (01:34:32):
You know.

Speaker 9 (01:34:32):
He was quite realistic over the years being in the
racing industry and it was just an interest for him.
And he'd have two or three dogs going around at
any one time and had raced eight times a week,
so he was having a great old time.

Speaker 21 (01:34:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:34:51):
I really thought that they would revoke that because they're
still doing a horse racing, but not dogs. To me,
it seems inconsistent and they're still doing rodeo. Is that's
another discussion I don't really want to get into. But yeah,
it's just a weird thing I think.

Speaker 9 (01:35:07):
Look, I agree, Look, look, okay, you know, did you
say that the trainers and dogs are packing up and
going to Ossie at some stage? Did you say.

Speaker 2 (01:35:17):
There is a trainer in christ Church who has put
book to flight and sent eighty dogs to Queensland. Now
the reason, one of the reasons that, one of the
reasons they closed the horse that the dog racing down
is they said, you know, these dogs will go to
We're going to close the humane way. These dogs will
go to humane homes, they won't be sold overseas, and

(01:35:38):
now they're already been sold overseas before they can come
up with a plan. So it seems to be poorly
thought out. It seems to be policy on the hoof.

Speaker 9 (01:35:46):
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, well look look, look it's a whole industry.
I felt sorry for the people. You know, they've got properties,
they've invested all their life into it, and that's all
they know, you know, that's their livelihood. So I guess
you know, Look, Victoria Race, I'm sure in Victoria. In
Melbourne have races upward of a million dollars. Goodness for

(01:36:10):
greyhound racing.

Speaker 2 (01:36:13):
Will be the pigeons next. First they came for our dogs,
then they came for our pigeons.

Speaker 9 (01:36:18):
Oh oh, look, I you know, well, you know I
won't be here too much longer, Marcus. It'd be for
the next generation.

Speaker 2 (01:36:31):
I don't like people saying that.

Speaker 9 (01:36:33):
Oh no, no, no, I'm just saying that, and jest, look.

Speaker 2 (01:36:36):
Okay, I don't freak me. I don't like people don't
like listeners. Dying evening Lennard's Marcus.

Speaker 16 (01:36:42):
Welcome, Yes, good evening, Marcus. Cameras. I've got a digital
camera which I've purchased us and it's a very nice
one and I use it quite a lot as opposed
to my phone. It's the last one I took was
on the fourteenth of March this year and I tried

(01:37:04):
to get the sky as it was a beautiful sky.
And previous to that was in January when I went
down to a country music festival in Martin.

Speaker 2 (01:37:15):
Oh wow, what's the advantage of the camera.

Speaker 16 (01:37:20):
The advantage for me is it takes much better photos
and I yeah, and I make albums with them, So
it's a lot easier for me anyway to do it
this way. And I've got a zoom lens that I
could zoom write and goes from a toy up to
four hundred, so yeah, it goes all in one. It's

(01:37:42):
quite a flash camera, so news out of it.

Speaker 2 (01:37:46):
Then do you get your photos developed at Harvy Norman
or something?

Speaker 16 (01:37:50):
No, I'm just doing them on a computer at the moment. Yeah,
I haven't gone there because if you get them digitally,
they don't come out as well. I have been making
some snackfish books with them for memories. Yeah, I just
I just my camp My phone doesn't take very good

(01:38:11):
photos and it doesn't zoom in fair enough for some
things that I want to take, So this is the
best way for me.

Speaker 2 (01:38:21):
And I guess you're doing indoor shots if you're at
the country, if you're doing music festivals in Martin, you
probably want to.

Speaker 16 (01:38:29):
Know that was outside.

Speaker 2 (01:38:30):
I thought I didn't visualize you guys been outside.

Speaker 16 (01:38:35):
Yeah, you know, they had an annual festival down there
every year. That was the first one I've been to
in Martin, and the top ones were on that night,
and so was another singer from way back in the seventies. No,
it was a male.

Speaker 2 (01:38:56):
No, No, it'll come to your text me if you've
got it. Yeah, I kind of. I always sought The
quality of photos on cell cameras was pretty good. So
it's interesting talking about that in the people going about
digital because I always thought, well, I guess it depends
on the on the phone too. But I've known very

(01:39:18):
high end photographers that have switched to cell phones and
quite enjoyed their results. But I guess it's easy to
control a separate digital camera with the zooming and things
like that. So we are talking about cameras and about
Jim Morrison, and about snow white, which I have. Yeah,

(01:39:42):
I think in my mind I've always had snow white
slightly confused with sleeping beauty, which I always thought was
a but weird and probably a little bit of beauty,
and the Beast in there as well. I think all
three have sort of become one to me, the same
sort of standard tropes. But dog racing in there in

(01:40:07):
the discussions as well tonight. So it's been the weather, cameras,
snow white, dog racing, and is Jim Morrison still alive. Marcus,
my five year old granddaughter, was given a camera from
father x mess it takes great instant pop up photos.
She's taken some amazing ones and now has albums to
put them in A future Melbourne photographer hah. The Greyhounds

(01:40:31):
from Leiston flew to Ossie on a Boeing seven three
seven eight hundred freighter BCF Boeing converted freighter, not the
greyhound bus. Come on good evening and it's Marcus welcome.

Speaker 15 (01:40:46):
I thought I'd just bring because when you said hours
or ours like that, I thought, yes, why why do
we say our leave the h off that we say
houses and.

Speaker 12 (01:41:03):
House hold?

Speaker 15 (01:41:05):
And it is? There are lots of other words, so
why do we change take the h off on hours?

Speaker 2 (01:41:13):
Have you got an answer?

Speaker 8 (01:41:15):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:41:18):
I haven't thought. I haven't thought some way. It's the
English language. Some word to pronounce, some words leaders aren't pronounced.
Isn't that right?

Speaker 10 (01:41:26):
Yes?

Speaker 15 (01:41:27):
But I've never thought of it, and I'm I just
never occurred to me that are you saying it? That
actually that's what we should do. We change things, and
it must be very very hard to actually learn it
when you're a youngster. Will we do? Though?

Speaker 2 (01:41:47):
What are the words starting with H aren't pronounced?

Speaker 23 (01:41:53):
Oh?

Speaker 22 (01:41:54):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:41:55):
I can't think.

Speaker 15 (01:41:56):
I can't think of hold hold.

Speaker 2 (01:42:02):
Hello, I can't think of any.

Speaker 15 (01:42:05):
No, I can't think of any of them.

Speaker 10 (01:42:06):
Honor, yes, honor, that's right, herb.

Speaker 15 (01:42:12):
But we say.

Speaker 21 (01:42:13):
History, honest.

Speaker 2 (01:42:18):
Homage.

Speaker 15 (01:42:19):
I don't know much. There's probably quite a few, but
it's what a difficult language English is.

Speaker 2 (01:42:25):
Yeah, we should get rid of it. We should have
gone back to Esperanto when we had the chance. We
had our honor. Thanks so much. Hotel, No that hotel,
hotel here, I am the sun and the air. There
aren't that many. Oh, anyway, get in touch with you

(01:42:53):
and talk about that or anything else. Oh, fourteen past eleven. Hello,
albeit's Marcus. Good evening school here. Well, you sound like
a character, Albee.

Speaker 11 (01:43:12):
We're all girls in New Zealand about using the wood
hour as a flower, and it's like we use use
it as two syllables, and actually it's one hour, one
hour after twelve one hour.

Speaker 2 (01:43:33):
And we will say our hour.

Speaker 11 (01:43:39):
Using three syllables. News and everything.

Speaker 18 (01:43:43):
We all use it, you.

Speaker 11 (01:43:44):
Know, flower, You know, well, it's always tickled my fancy.

Speaker 2 (01:43:51):
You can't change people. They change yourself. To change the world,
you just got to accept what people do. Strange things
with the way they talk.

Speaker 11 (01:43:58):
Yeah, sometimes, Marcus, I listen to you and I think
I give my room or not. I real a lot
with the zed B, and after twelve I find up
more comed and I'll go on another's club.

Speaker 2 (01:44:19):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:44:21):
I help out people who are.

Speaker 21 (01:44:25):
Contemplating suicide and stuff like that. And now they help
them and how they get a friend to sit with them,
you know, and they can look back and think, well,
I'm really thinking like that, you know. It's yes, Marcus, you.

Speaker 2 (01:44:45):
Got that in one. It'll be nice to hear from you.
Thank you. Sixteen past eleven. How are you going? People?

Speaker 5 (01:44:50):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:44:51):
Something else too? So it's here we go. It's sixteen
past eleven now, right, But next week it'll be sixteen
past ten, So for those of us that work nights
will be staying up an hour later. Yeah. So, I

(01:45:14):
wonder if any of you are getting ready for daylight
Savings by actually going to be ten minutes later every
night for this week. Is there something people are doing.
I'm attacking daylight Savings differently this year. I'm getting ready
for it. I'm easing into it rather than the cold,
brutal hour change next week, because yeah, what about that

(01:45:36):
woman once that wasn't even going to change your clock
for daylight savings. What was her name? I think she
was a Karen. She'll be looking forward to tomorrow. Ey,
stop being an hour late for everything? Or an hour early?

Speaker 4 (01:45:49):
Spring?

Speaker 2 (01:45:54):
She'd be an hour early? Would she? Would she be
an hour late? Twelve? Would be one twelve? Very hard,
very hard with the head to do things around daylight savings.
She's on Karen time. The h is silent on words

(01:46:15):
that are of French origin, like hour and honest and homage.
It's a type of cheese. Oh, it's been interesting nineteen
past eleven, but next week will be nineteen past ten.
What I love most about daylight tavings when people say
what's the time, and then you say you mean the

(01:46:35):
old time of the new time. That's fantastic. Hope everyone
does that. Always good in the family discussion for about
a week, we do both times. Anyway you think we
have the hang of it by nab Oh, no, poor mcdonna,
that's going to be an hour longer. Should just play
a couple of Hancocks half hours back to back and

(01:46:57):
habit of a nap. So I'll be doing if you've
been thinking of calling. Now is a good time. I'll
put you straight on. Oh a great photo. That's a
great photo. Well look at that. Someone sent me a
photo photographed the seagull down by Echiro a main wharf
the other day. She's got that angry Judith Collins, I
think going on wow once I said, I can't unsee

(01:47:17):
it for that's a good photo. To remark what it lied,
little pesky seagull just about ran one overday. Nothing you
actually have to break for a seagulls. I glad I did.
I'm glad I did. Good luck to the greyhounds in Australia.
Hope the money spent to get the hounds there on
this Oh, huge money spent to get their hounds there

(01:47:40):
on this chartered flight. People's lives have been uprooted over
this decision by the government to ban the dogs. They'll
come for your pigeons next. Just doesn't seem to be consistent.
You got horses with people on their backs and you've
got dogs. Where's the consistency? Makes no sense? Come on,

(01:48:05):
what do you got? Well, my name is Marcus got Evening,
Oh eight hundred and eighty to thirty nine to ninety
text lovely to hear from you if there's something else
you want to talk about tonight. Now, what else would
people be interested on a Thursday going into Daylight Savings
and Easter? I'll be those boring stories about Easter trading,
won't they that garden seen to will open up? Won't

(01:48:26):
they sell their gardening stuff on the Easter Sunday? That
seems to get people's echoes up. I could not care
less about Easter trading. I'll call me a heathen. But
oh well, yep, I'll close the casino, of course, I
think the casino might still be open as I think
that closes ends act day. But yeah, twenty four past eleven,

(01:48:50):
I'd love to hear from your people. Oh what about
and someone on Jim Morrison being alive? I don't know
if there's a Wikipedia page about that, but there's a
three part documentary on at the moment about Jim Morrison
having faked his own I'm not quite sure what the

(01:49:10):
evidence is, but you might know. Such a great album
to discover as a teenager. Karen Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 25 (01:49:21):
Hi Marcus. How are you?

Speaker 2 (01:49:23):
Oh you do that? You're the Karen that doesn't do
Daylight Savings?

Speaker 16 (01:49:27):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:49:28):
Wow, Wow, So are you early for things or lateful things?
What time is it where you are?

Speaker 25 (01:49:33):
Well, it's it's only it's only ten thirty here, but
it'll be eleven thirty for you.

Speaker 2 (01:49:37):
Yeah, so if you had to tune up at something
for eleven thirty, you'd be ten thirty.

Speaker 25 (01:49:45):
So if I have an appointment at the doctor for
one o'clock, then I listed for twelve o'clock.

Speaker 2 (01:49:52):
Brilliant.

Speaker 25 (01:49:53):
So yeah, so I've been doing that. I've been doing
it now for about four years, so it's been I'm
used to it now.

Speaker 5 (01:50:01):
You're really actually, Karen, you're a.

Speaker 2 (01:50:03):
Real hero of mine because you've stuck with what that key,
You've just done it.

Speaker 25 (01:50:08):
Yes, that's right. Well, it's all about looking after my
own health. You know a lot of people say, oh,
but you get used to daylight saving. There is a
way that you know, and the way that you know
whether you've adjusted is people are always chasing time. If
you're always chasing the clock. If you're in a daylight

(01:50:29):
saving if you're always chasing the clock, then your body
has not adjusted. Your mind might adjust, but your physical
body has not adjusted.

Speaker 2 (01:50:37):
No, you're a hero of mine.

Speaker 25 (01:50:41):
Yeah, I yes, thank you, But I do I do
find not doing daylight saving so much better as I'm single,
so it's easier, But if you've got a family, it's
going to be a lot more difficult.

Speaker 2 (01:50:55):
Oh no, I think. I think it's amazing what you've
managed to do. Will you be looking forward to Sunday
when it gets back to normal for a while or
doesn't really matter.

Speaker 25 (01:51:05):
Absolutely, because every time I have everything, when I go
to church, I have to get up an hour earlier
everyone else, you know, like everyone's you know, people get
up at halp us. Our church starts at ten o'clock,
so everyone gets people get up about half past eight,
but I have to get up at half past seven.
So's oh my gosh.

Speaker 2 (01:51:24):
So your church church starts at ten o'clock care and
time or real time real time? Okay, so that's nine
o'clock your time.

Speaker 25 (01:51:34):
Yeah, So so for me, I have to be there
at nine o'clock. But when the daylight saving comes then
I'll be able to get up at half past eight
instead of help us seven, yes, and get there for
ten o'clock. So at the moment, I have to do
an hour early for everything, which is annoying, but you know,

(01:51:56):
that's the way life goes home, everything is normal, any.

Speaker 26 (01:52:00):
Other dramas, No, not really, just just this living life
and yeah, yeah, just I've lost about twenty five kilos
because I did it through fasting, and a.

Speaker 25 (01:52:17):
Lot of people find the gain the weight back in it.
How you get that yo yo dietary and kind of thing, Well,
they're the key to I've cracked the permanent weight loss key.
I wouldn't probably won't be the only person. But the
key to keeping the weight off is reducing your insulin. Yes,

(01:52:37):
because your insulin controls your fat stores. So what happens
is if people lose the weight but they leave their
insulin high, there's a big gap the body. The brain
goes into survival mode and thinks all the body is starving.
But hormones are messengers, and by bringing the mess by
bringing the insulin down, when you lose the weight, it

(01:53:00):
seems a message to your brain that this weight loss
is okay. And then you won't get the yo yo
dieting effect because the insulin has come down. If you
don't bring the incident down, how do you.

Speaker 2 (01:53:15):
Again, how do you control your insulin?

Speaker 25 (01:53:18):
Well, what pushes the insulin up in the diet? But no, sure, oh, carbohydrates,
so reduce the sugar. What I found is that if
I do two days of fasting, like twenty four hours
at a time, two days of twenty four hour fasting,
that brings the incident down.

Speaker 24 (01:53:38):
It uses up.

Speaker 25 (01:53:38):
All of the sugar in your body, which reduces your
risk of getting type two diabetes. And then you just
eat normally through the rest of the week, but keep
your sugar and your carbohydrates sort of down a little bit.
See you're not eating mass of amounts of it, because
that's just going to push your insolin back up again
and undo all the stuff you've done over those two days.

Speaker 2 (01:53:59):
How long how long is it taking you to shake
the twenty five kgs?

Speaker 25 (01:54:05):
Well I did it for about three and a half years.
And it's what happens is you fast and you can
lose about I mean it was. It was very common
for me over those two days to lose about two
two and a half kilos. But when you start eating again,
you gain a little bit of it back. But the
key is not to gain all of it back. So

(01:54:26):
you get so you lose about two and a half kilos,
Then you start eating and you gain a little bit back,
and then the next week you get you lose more
and then you go down lower and you lose another
two and a half kilos. So it's like a step down.
Your weight goes like a step down, but it comes
up and it goes down, it goes when you start refeeding,
it goes up a little bit, but then it comes

(01:54:47):
down the next week. And by keeping the carbohydrates lower
in your diet, not cutting them out, but lower.

Speaker 2 (01:55:00):
Coming to be honest, To be honest with Karen, I'm
more interested about your daylight savings. I mean it's great
with the dart and everything, and people will be interested
in but that's it does get quite technical.

Speaker 3 (01:55:09):
So will you do anything?

Speaker 2 (01:55:09):
Will will you do anything special on Sunday? By not
changing your clock, you won't have a little serum or
you able to chew it, won't.

Speaker 25 (01:55:15):
You I'll have an extra hour of sleeping, so yes,
I'll be sleeping in a little bit earlier. And I
just have to adjust to the fact that I don't
have to go in our backwards now. So you know,
it's actually takes a lot of stress off my physical
body because I don't have to at home. I just
you know, everyone's like at six o'clock or seven o'clock,

(01:55:37):
and but for me, it's only six o'clock, so I've
got an extra hour in the evening.

Speaker 13 (01:55:41):
Yeah, it's great two things.

Speaker 25 (01:55:43):
Whereas everyone else is stressing to get dinner cooked and everything,
but I just take my time and you know. So, yeah,
it's it's actually really really good.

Speaker 2 (01:55:52):
So have you have you managed to convince anyone else?

Speaker 25 (01:55:58):
Well, there's one lady. She wants to do it, but
she's got a family, but she gets a little bit forgetful,
so it's probably better not put her to do it.
So it's probably a little bit more difficult, but they
love the idea of not doing daylight saving.

Speaker 2 (01:56:14):
I mean, I think you're a visionary. Yeah here.

Speaker 25 (01:56:20):
Yeah, well my friend is a little it gets a
bit brain fogged during the daylight saving, so I just
help her out a little bit with reminding her about things.
So yeah, but no, I just I just I just
do it because it's good for me and because I
don't I've gotten used to managing both times. Yeah, So

(01:56:47):
so it's been really good for me, and I just
it just works so well for me.

Speaker 2 (01:56:53):
I really appreciate you coming through careen to mean a
lot to me. Too, so thank you. I mean to
say a year, care and time, and I gave up
on that because it felt like I was a joke
that was going too far. But yeah, that's good that
you've You've done it and you're back on track.
