Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:07):
You're listening to the Marcus Slush Nights podcast from News Talks.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
It be.

Speaker 1 (00:15):
You're trusted nighttime Talk Marcus Lush Knights Call eight hundred
and eighty to eighteen News Talks.

Speaker 3 (00:20):
It be when the world outside to the day glands
winner even more they maybe time it seems I'm fine.

Speaker 4 (00:45):
Way one never won rior because I away.

Speaker 5 (00:57):
By your side.

Speaker 6 (01:02):
Welcome a good evening. At seven minutes past eight, my
name is Marc. Here till twelve o'clock tonight. I hope
it's good.

Speaker 7 (01:09):
We you are.

Speaker 6 (01:09):
There's some important stuff probably we need to talk about tonight.
Well it's so important. I mean it's important because the
audience is everywhere, and it's everywhere the news is happening.
I'm talking about the weather, so particularly what it's still
light for the last few moments. I don't know if
this weather system has been over hyped or not, but

(01:30):
we never know. It's always good to be aware and
to be weary. They are talking about a month's rainfall
and three days and this thunderstorms and flash flooding and
gusts them up to eighty kilometers per hour and auckland stuff.
Any of that is happening. If you've got a weather report,
let us know. So the severe thunderstorm for Auckland is

(01:52):
from eight hours from now. I don't know about you.
For me, when I see thunder, that's not the stuff
that worries me, because thunder that's not a worry, is it.
The worry is heavy rainfall and flooding and wind. But yeah,

(02:12):
I don't think we should have over hype thunder. But anyway,
so the heavy rain was going to linger until tomorrow
morning before turning fine, so they could be flooding. There's
all sort of South Island snowstorms are possible this evening,
along with more heavy rain and strong winds. So if
there are people out there driving, which there will be,
or people with weather reports, do let us snow. I
love someone when I say, gee, it's pouring here, there's

(02:34):
surface flooding. I've reckoned before too long, we're gonna get
the road closed. That sort of stuff is great for me.
Someone say, oh, I'm coming through the lowest pass, I reckon.
They other close, it's sewing, the snow's settling. All these
are good calls. What tends to happen, though, if I
discuss the weather, is that we get weather braggers. It's

(02:56):
you perfectly fine in Hawk's Bay. That's not interesting. It's nice.
But you know, when I'm saying that the weather's not good,
I don't mean it's not good at every single spot
in New Zealand. There be places where the reather is fine.
What I'm interested is where it's going to affect people's
livelihoods and their lives. So yeah, that's what I'm about tonight,
the weather. If you've got an update, do let us

(03:19):
know eight hundred and eighty nine nine two detext. The
rugby is at in Nelson, the ran Fury Shield, so
i'll keep you update. We've got a guy there. And
when I say I've got we've got a guy there,
we haven't got a guy. We've got a guy that
rang earlier in the weekend. He say he's going to
give us a call from halftime or something like that.

(03:40):
Well it won't be at half time. Trafalgar Park is
what it's called. There's already been half time. That's a
shame for for Nelson. The weather's turned bad there appalling
conditions apparently because they were looking forward to that match
so and hopefully they'll retain. It'll be their first defense
I think against a wall. I mean, they haven't been
around forever, so that's happening also tonight, so we'll bring

(04:03):
you an update on that and team coverage of that.
That's Trafile Parks and that's happening currently as we speak.
That's the match that's there. I think, as Tony said,
Auklan Darmas behind there. I think they've just gone ahead
fifteen to ten. Looks like it's reclaimed land looking at
Google Maps anyway. So I'll keep you updated with news

(04:23):
from their numbers. Eight hundred eighty eight ten. So that's
two things. The first thing is the weather. We need
to know about that. The second thing is that Ranfurley shield.
I will keep you updated expecting a big crowd. They
won't get that on a Wednesday, a wet Wednesday. Should
have had it on a Sunday afternoon. Anyway. They can't
pick the weather. So you've got some information about that.
I'd be daly interested. Oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty.

(04:45):
The other thing, too, is that there is a mass
solar ejection. Was that right, Marcus? This is bigger than
the one that was in May. So what that means
is that there is plasma coming from the Sun towards Earth,
and that means them it might be an Aurora Australis

(05:10):
and there might also be interference with electronic instruments. So
I'm all across that. So if there's information, although the
weather is not great, the bad thing is the weather
is not great. The other thing though, is the moon
is new, so there won't be much moonlight pollution. But
it's gone off, so it's a big deal. So there

(05:35):
is a mass ejection happening. It's probably going to be
a couple of days away. It's probably going to be
on the midnight on the fifth New Zealand time approximately.
That's when the Aurora event is happening. So it might
be a really good weekend for Aurora Australis. They reckon
they will see it as far north as Auckland. Goodness me.

(05:56):
By the way, does International Walk to School Day? Big
believer in that, love more walks to school? Not really
the thing about walking to school you always in a hurry.
Never could you can never quite time it right, could you? Anyway?
So there is that fewre But if you go to
weather update, be nice to hear from your eight hundred

(06:17):
eighty ten eighty and nine two nine two detext and
bigger heads up to Dunedin who did a Dunedin council
did a very good Facebook posting today the difference between
the weather watch and the weather warning and they ended
it using a cheese roll. It was quite good. The
cheese roll watch here is all the ingredients they haven't

(06:41):
been made yet, and then the cheese roll warning is
a fully fledged made cheese roll. Works very well anyway,
thirteen past eight, who wants to start the whole war
rolling tonight first and best dressed? I feel quite hyped
for tonight. So let's be hearing from you. Wooh, get
in touch, oh eight hundred eighty the weather, the weather warning,

(07:01):
the weather watch, what have you got with the weather,
with the downpours, anything like that, snow, whatever got, would
love to hear from you about that, and also the
Aurora coming up. Also the rugby will get updates from that,
apart from anything else you want to talk about. Be
my guests, you've got breaking news. Been nice to hear
from you, wallabies. You know what, it is a bit

(07:23):
of everything for me. It actually works for me actually
for some funny reason, I've just been reading about the
Caspian Sea. Why don't we know more about the Caspian Sea?
Oh you love Wikipedia Caspian Sea world's biggest inland sea.
Now once between a lake and an inland sea, and

(07:44):
feed is the world's largest inland body of water. So
very well the Caspian Sea. And I've got one of
my sudden urges to go. They don't know why. So
maybe tonight I might speak to someone that's been on
a boat on a Caspian Sea because it seems pretty interesting. Also,
I was running what country's border the Caspian Sea. There's

(08:04):
five kajakis Dan, Russia took Ministan as Erbaijan and Iran.
Not happening there, eh, anyway, get in touch, Marcus till twelve.
Good timing for International Walk to School Day during school holidays.
You tell me about it, although yeah, I haven't got

(08:26):
anything snappy or fun to say about that. I don't
quite know what happened to people walking to school. I
think stranger danger you got overly talked up. Suddenly there
was this great thing about stranger danger. When the policing
came claranteed the people that you know, you're at most
danger for those people that know you, which is sobering,

(08:49):
and I think stranger dangers stop people walking to school.
Of course, they biked to school as well. Then they
made helmets compulsory, which was fine, but it had the
unattended consequences of making parents think that cycling was unsafe.
So parents subtly or unsubtly without intending, discouraged their children

(09:13):
from cycling to school. Were interesting that because most bikes.
Most schools and you can still see them, had huge
bike sheds which you no longer see. Of course, the
roads are a lot less safe too, because bigger cars,
people driving faster, more traffic on the road. But let's

(09:33):
hope we rectify that before long. Anyway, there is a
lot happening. I'm here for all of at fifteen past
eight Marcus till twelve oh eight hundred and eighty ten
eighty nine, two texts. I will bring your live updates
from the rugby. Let me just bring a situation up now,
ran fury shield score ran fairly shield score. You might

(09:56):
be there, but if you be there, you won't be
at the radio, or you won't be listening to the radio,
will you. All Live scores are found at People actually
love the Internet. People do before that with radio nothing
at all. Now I can't find the damn thing anyway.

(10:20):
I should we watching on the tef you get in
touch of your daughter talk sixteen past eight here till
twelve Worth it all for this text, people, Marcus, we
came to Nelson to watch the Marco's Auckland game. We
are parked up in our camper one hundred and fifty

(10:42):
ments from Travalgar Park. Can't get to the game. Horrific weather.
So actually, can you not get to the game or
do you just not want to go to the game?
Are you watching it in your camp Evan? And what
is the score? It's a great text though, because of
course you'd never envisaged that the weather would be bad
in Nelson for a game of rugby. It's a great text, though,

(11:04):
Marcus not called to wear a helm whilst riding an
HGMX five hundred for those that don't know, that was
a great BMX bike. Seventeen past eight. Looking forward to
your calls today. There might be some other discussion you
want to bang on about. That's good for me. I'm
up for all of it tonight. I've never been more
up for all of it topic wise. So get in
touch with it, but particularly if you've got to start

(11:25):
and breaking weather story with flooding or something like that.
I don't think this has been overhyped. I think it
is a big weather system. We're talking about a months
of rainfall and three days. That's big biscuits. Back at
your seventeen past eight. If they sayd the business a
slow starts, a good start. All the lines are free.
How I've got live updates for you.

Speaker 8 (11:46):
Oh I just.

Speaker 6 (11:47):
Found the website. Now it's gone. I just had it.
I think it's twenty Oh goodness, hang on, I'm over
clicking on stuff. That's my trouble. I get excited with
the internet. Twenty one to ten The Tasman, the Tasman,
Tasman feels funny. You're saying Tasman the Tasman, don't. They

(12:08):
called the Marcos, which I don't like what they called them.
Mark twenty one to ten Tesman over Auckland. That's six
or twenty four. As I was looking at it, they
scored twenty four to ten. That's a situation. If there's
anyone there, let us know if you times what the
crowds are like. I'm also curious about anyone's been in
the Caspian Sea. Oh not a text, and about why
people don't walk to school anymore. My kids walk to

(12:30):
school reluctantly?

Speaker 9 (12:32):
Do they year?

Speaker 6 (12:34):
I will pick them up if it's pouring with rain,
But I feel I feel I'm doing them irreparable harm
by picking them up when it's pouring with rain, because
I feel that I am actually destroying their ability to
make decisions in them morning to take their raincoats. But

(12:57):
that's just me Mark a couple of texts. I read
the text and I hope you'll get them called up
and running. So yeah, as I say, if you want
to come through that, hear from you. Marcus. In regards
to Alliance Smithfield plant closing down, a lot of those
people who have been made are applying for jobs in Australia.

(13:18):
It's pretty much ripped the heart and a timeter, especially
for those of us who've been here for years. I
can't say I blame those people for seeking opportunities in Australia.
Very interesting and what I'm curious to know are they
going for jobs and the works in Australia through demand
for that? Because funnily enough, I know people in South
and that have managed to use their skills and the

(13:40):
works to go and work all over the world. So
people have gone to work in the freezing works in
Scandinavia because they've got those skills. So they are sought
after international transferable skills. So I wonder if those people
in Timano, where they have God, and what the conditions
and payers like where they are going, that would be
of interest to me. Marcus. The Caspian Sea was home

(14:02):
to a super secret Russian aircraft does the Caspian Sea Monster.
It flew in ground effect an altitude of twenty feet.
The Accredo Plan was the size of a small warship.
Scared the hell of the Allies when they finally found
eight out. Marcus, maybe Otago Southend should be the next
Tasman Nelson Marlborough. I would never a problem with that.

(14:27):
I think the South and Staggs have underperformed the last
few years since they had the shield. Don't quite know
what that's about, but yeah, I don't have a problem
with that. I know it sounds like sacrilege. Most south
Enders would say there's so much strong feeling between Dunedin
or Otago and South that they could never combine. But
I think that's perceived rather than real. Marcus, how comes

(14:51):
cyclists and motorbike riders have to wear helmets, yete is.

Speaker 1 (14:57):
Es.

Speaker 6 (14:57):
Scooter riders don't even a horse riders were a helmet
of a sort. I think it's just haven't got around
to work out how to prosecute them anyway. Just keep
the Orcarnvisus Tasmania score coming please, Thanks Patrick. Nice to
hear from your Patrick. All the lines are free. Oh
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty and the Caspian Ca
someone might have been there. I always thinking with you

(15:18):
many places on talk back, there'll be someone in the
world that's been there. On the show Delicious cup of Coffee,
and I can tell you as far as this month's
rainfall in three days, it certainly is raining and Invericago,
but that's nothing unusual because it's rained for it the
last five weeks, so that is not surprising or different.

(15:43):
But looking forward to your calls if you want to
come through and talk about anything else. Oh eight hundred
eighty eight and nine nine, particularly weather updates if you've
got them. I will check out the NZEDTA website see
what's happening there the c Is there any flooding but
there's snow reports also for the South Island. Yeah, not
making this up, people. I just checked the highways to

(16:04):
make sure everything's okay to see it's all good to go.
Not seeing any road closures yet people, But I'm sure
if it does happen, you truck drivers will let me
know and I appreciate you for that. Anyway, Yeah, we go.
Twenty five past eight. Be nice to get the whole
calls banging them through. Keep it going. If you've got
something of interest to say, you might be doing something interesting.

(16:25):
Leon emails Marcus. A huge week for my Storm tonight,
starting with the NRL delim Awards in Sydney. Jerome Hughes
in contention of Player of the Year, Craig Bellamy for coach.
Hopefully you've got omen for the game on Sunday evening. Yes,
I think Jerome Hughes will get the DAIM and I
think the Melbourne Storm will win the match on Sunday.

(16:49):
They were just classy all season, so yeah, I don't
doubt that anyway. Twenty five past eight. If you don't
want to come through, Marcus till twelve. If there's something
else you want to mention, love to hear from you.
A lot of sport on tonight too. I'll keep that
netball update for you if I can find it on
the TV. I promise you that would be TV one.
I can ever work out where the netballers. I think

(17:11):
it's kind of a free to wear scenario now, isn't it.
I feel like I need new batteries for my remote.
Hang on, let me just wait out what's happening here?
No dream Home, it's on TV two. No Treasure Island three,
liven let die, I've got a fifty one. Oh, it's
on Channel four. I've got upbreaking netball news for you,

(17:34):
d did E. I'll get myself in trouble with these
no callers because I say things are unpopular, Like I
just come from the soupmak. I tell you what. It's
something at the supermank. I try not to look at
other people's trolleys, but jeep, people buy a lot of
potato chips, don't they. What's that about? When do we
become such a nation of potato chip peters? And when

(17:57):
do people eat them? Something I've never managed to aunt anyway.
I try not to look at other people's trolleys, and
I tell you I'll get in trouble for saying stuff
like that. Are thirty three point thirty New Zealand leading
England third quarter, eleven minutes to go and the rugby union.
I'll bring that up. Also, I've overclicked this right is

(18:21):
mean to watch the baseball today Channel fifty one. To
wrench your rain in the Bay of Islands. My water
tank is singing. Well, it's a good thing. It doesn't
mean actually singing and Tasman versus Auckland. Let me get
a score for you. Hear peoples? Ooh penalty there out

(18:44):
in front, God, even the gosh, even the no one
in the audience, no covered stands. All I can see
and it's the camera's covered in rain. Wipe your camera
twenty fourteen to fifteen to go woo, to rench your
reign in the Bay of Islands water take a singing.
What does James O'Connor possible move to the Crusaders say
about the depth of talent and New Zealand rugby. Surely

(19:08):
the so called independent review of last season's disaster didn't
remend recommend recruiting a ten that Australia is super rugby.
Don't even want Rob fair enough comment Rob I don't
know too much about James O'Connor. Maybe I do, but
thanks for that one. And as I keep your text
coming through Marcus till twelve. If there's something else you
want to mention talk about, say beautiful and potato chips, Well, people,

(19:34):
I don't want the annual market for potato chips would
be must be a billion dollar industry now just chomped
with them forever anyway, said without judgment, Well, without kind
of judgment. Yeah, fourteen minutes left in that rugby there
also too, So that's a situation when I will bring

(19:55):
you more updates from the netball throughout the course of
the evening, and in the meantime, you've got a weather
update for me. You would love to hear from you,
absolutely bucketing down everywhere, although I haven't heard from your
personal opinions of that, so it would be great to
hear from you tonight. Now, some other stuff I can
probably tell you about International Walk to School Day. I

(20:16):
don't know what that's about, but I think more people
should do it. I don't quite know why they don't.
I don't know actual stats about that. I might actually
be able to find them in this article. Blah, blah blah,

(20:38):
blah blah. It's actually a holiday I think, first observed
in nineteen ninety in Britain, an annual observance. It starts
a way of creating awareness for walkable communities that will
be triggering for some of you anyway. Marcus till twelve
oh eight eight eight, twelve minutes left to go on
the rugby twenty four to ten. Tasman to be excited

(20:59):
to defend this against aalk. This will been a lot
to them, but certainly looks like they will have terrible conditions.
Keep your posted half pass date tony headlines, please nas Marcus.

Speaker 10 (21:08):
The Prime Minister is holding his tongue on expectations for
next week's official cash rate decision. The Reserve Bank will
reveal its latest OCR move after cutting at twenty five
basis points in August and forecasting more cuts ahead. The
cost of living and funding cuts are impacting community service
providers in their clients. In a State of the Community

(21:28):
and Volunteer Sector report, seventy seven of the organization's surveyed
say demand is up. Former in Vicago Mayor Tim Shadbolt
has given his name to one of the town's airport
terminals the renamed Terminal has been officially unveiled at a
private event. In the netball, it looks like yes, England
have gone ahead thirty six thirty five there in their

(21:50):
match tonight. That's the second game in the Tiny Jamison
Trophy series. New Zealand have to win tonight to keep
that series alive and retain the silverware. And up till
now they've been doing well. They are quarter a time
in halftime, but I think this is the first time
England have gone ahead in the game. And in rugby,
as Marcus, we're saying Tasman ahead by twenty four to
ten against Auckland and that Ranfurly shield clash dreadful conditions

(22:11):
in Nelson. But I think Tasman are playing this very cleverly.
They've kept the scoreboard ticking over in the second half
just through penalties, but they've just crossed over for a
try now and I think that's Auckland out of this.
Auckland haven't had the shield since two thousand and eight
and I'd say they're not going to get it tonight either.

Speaker 6 (22:27):
That's why they make the shark on the head because
that's little also fine exactly across a rate follow a sport,
but I think some do the stag ahead, well not
the stag that often score. But that's the shark, isn't it.
That's right here?

Speaker 10 (22:37):
Yep, you know the Tasman mark or have for good
tonight and yeah, I think they're putting Auckland away on
this one. We'll have more on that. It's nine o'clock
or you can go to nzid Herald dot co dot
nz twenty.

Speaker 6 (22:49):
Nine to nine. Thank you tell you my name is
Marcus welcome o eight hundred and eighty Teddy on this
wet Wednesday and looking for a topic and something that
will engage you with I can tell you too that
I don't know if this is going to get you
jumping up, jumping or bumping. And you study his confirm
what many New Zealand shoppers already believe. Supermarket prices are

(23:10):
higher here than overseas. Compared common grocery items and leading
soup markets in Australia, the UK, Ireland and New Zealand,
New Zealand was the most expensive place to buy the items,
with UK the cheapest. They compared the price of staples
including fruit, vegetables, milk, cheese, chocolate, mead, meat, bread, coffee

(23:33):
and some toiletries. UK lowest price cost ranging from three
forty to three twenty nine, Ireland second, Australian third, and
New Zealand the most expensive. So it seems like it's
twenty five percent more with a range of three seventy
nine to four five four. That might have been your

(23:53):
experience when you've traveled. But I mean it's kind of crazy.
When we are a producer, it says it's milk, cheese, meat, vegetables,
milk cheese meat. We think would be the top of
all those lists with the cheapest with the amount that
we produce, so I presume most of england stuff is imported.
Might want to comment on that twenty seven to eleven

(24:13):
to nine rather, but get at eight hundred and eighty
ten eighty and nineteen nine two to text. Oh, Marcus,
there was much more rivalry between Marlborough and Nelson when
the Marco were formed than there ever would be between

(24:35):
Southland and Otago. We are all Marco's now, Marcus. Just
let you know that I made my Christmas cake today
and it looks great. Oh, by the way, I forgot
to tell you that today is the make your Christmas
Cake Day. Because Nigella Lawsen says you should make your
Christmas cake. I think it's ten weeks before Christmas or

(25:05):
twelve weeks? I can't it's today. Yeah, so it's today
you're supposed to make it. I can't remember the actual
number of days before Christmas? How many days is until Christmas?
I can go through and count, but I better things
to do at work. Oh, eight hundred and eighty ees
had your nine two nine to text head or twelve
twenty six to nine every days?

Speaker 2 (25:24):
Is it?

Speaker 6 (25:25):
Let me just check on the map, people, I've got
my calendar here. Well, I thought I did have one week,
two week, three week, four week, five weeks, six weeks,
seven week, eight week, nine week, ten weeks. Yeah, twelve
weeks to Chris, twelve weeks to Christmas today, So today
is the day to make your Christmas cake. I haven't
got suggestions for recipes for you, but I'm sure everyone

(25:48):
that makes their own Christmas cakes knows the right one
to do it. I don't know why you make them
twelve weeks before must need to soften or go moist
or something like that. You might have some suggestions. Twenty
six to nine twenty three from nine David. It's Marcus.
Welcome and good evening.

Speaker 11 (26:06):
Us.

Speaker 12 (26:06):
I'm standing outside in o teke O teki googe up
in Capety and I thought i'd give you a ring
and get the ball rollings for people to ring. It
has been a beautiful day here, no rain. This afternoon,
I'd come back from count and locked in letterbox and
I got a scam letter from Bloom Hearing Specialists in

(26:31):
Australia and I've never left the country and they were
informing me that I need to do this and that
it's a four page letter on unfortunately their system has
been hacked and it could affect my bank account.

Speaker 13 (26:47):
Yeah, yeah, yeck.

Speaker 12 (26:48):
I read the letters and I went up to the
house and rang the one on one and then they
put me to a policeman and I described the letter
and stuff like that and he said, no, that's definitely
a scam. And it's I've had a couple of STEM

(27:09):
messages things on my cellphone, but this is the first
time I've got a four page letter from this company
called Bloom for a lifetime of listening hearing Specialists and
I'm in the darkening everything. But it's basically I read
what I can see I'm using my phone to here.
It's a here, David Cleghorn. They had my name and everything.

(27:31):
A notification of data bridge affecting bloom Hearing Specialists. We
will great to inform you you have been you have
become aware of a security incident affecting bloom Hearing Limited.
On the fifth of July twenty twenty four. We became
aware of a what's happen to my line? We became
aware of a randomware attack, et cetera, et cetera. We

(27:54):
understand that.

Speaker 6 (27:58):
Is this the letter or a text from the police.
Is this the letter?

Speaker 14 (28:02):
No?

Speaker 6 (28:02):
No, no, no no.

Speaker 12 (28:03):
This is a four page letter that was delivered in
the in the letter box.

Speaker 6 (28:07):
Okay, okay, hang on, So the letter is not the scam.
The letter was about the scam.

Speaker 7 (28:11):
Is that right?

Speaker 12 (28:12):
No, the letter is the scam.

Speaker 6 (28:14):
But the letter's talking about a scam, isn't it.

Speaker 12 (28:18):
No, Well, I've never been to bloom Hearing Specialists.

Speaker 6 (28:22):
Start again for the n't start again with a letter?

Speaker 12 (28:26):
Yeah, I can't. I can't read double them in the dark.
But what it was is they're notifying me that their
system there because their Bloom Hearing Specialists in Melbourne or
something their system may have got attacked and it could
have affected all my bank accountant numbers and my personal information,

(28:48):
et cetera, et cetera. And then they proceeded to want
me to go to online or something.

Speaker 6 (28:55):
Like that and then take your money.

Speaker 12 (28:58):
Yeah, And so I read the papers and they went
and brang the police and they said, no, no, that's
different scam.

Speaker 6 (29:08):
David. You're not only rang the police, you dialed one
one one. Did you not think that might be a
bit of an overreaction, Ah.

Speaker 12 (29:18):
No, because they have a thing about you know, I
know about ten eighty and I just rung that and
then they transferred me to you know, I told them
about the scam thing, so they me and I wasn't,
you know, holding one line very long, and then the

(29:40):
policeman said, no, that's definitely a scam. Hold on to
the paperwork.

Speaker 2 (29:46):
And so.

Speaker 11 (29:49):
I was just.

Speaker 15 (29:52):
On the phones.

Speaker 12 (29:53):
But for older people like I'm sexty two.

Speaker 6 (29:56):
But are you considering yourself an older person at sixty two?

Speaker 2 (30:00):
No?

Speaker 12 (30:00):
No, no, well, you know, this is my second time around.

Speaker 6 (30:03):
But it was just the thing of what what it
means your second time around?

Speaker 13 (30:08):
Oh?

Speaker 12 (30:08):
Well, you know, that's just there's one second we'll I
talk something. Know what it was just the next a
tall page.

Speaker 13 (30:20):
Yeah, and I just got I.

Speaker 6 (30:21):
Just got to ask the question. Everyone's interesting, David. What
you're set up there because you're you're up the or
tucky gorge. Have you got no power?

Speaker 8 (30:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 12 (30:30):
But I'm I'm outside and the and the it's like two.

Speaker 6 (30:34):
Acres and you've got you you've got their cell phone reception.

Speaker 11 (30:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 12 (30:39):
Well I'm standing out and I'm pointing my cell phone
up to the house and yeah, it's you know, it's
good reception tonight.

Speaker 6 (30:46):
But you know I was raining. Is it raining?

Speaker 13 (30:50):
No?

Speaker 12 (30:50):
No, No, it was a beautiful s I just finished
hacking the old grapevines in the it's a plastic glasshouse.
All the grapes are all taking off and everything. And
but it was just more con just to let people
know sure that not only do they trying and trick
older people on the telephone and on the on your

(31:12):
cell phones, but these people actually sent a four page
letter saying I was one of their customers in Australia
and I've never left the country.

Speaker 6 (31:23):
Will you leave the country sometime, David?

Speaker 12 (31:25):
No, No, I've got a couple of nephews over there.
My daughter was over there a few years ago and
offered to shout me over there. But I love living
in o Teke two acres, you know, chickens and dogs
and it takes me twenty minutes to go to the
petrol station in Tarafromu where I work. And yeah, nearly

(31:48):
living in their dreams.

Speaker 6 (31:49):
So you know, nice to hear from you it, David,
thank you so much that eighteen to nine o'clock. I
think i'd ring one one one for a scan. That
was my tip. What was your takeout from that? Wow,
I wouldn't even look at that. We'd have a heavy
letter of box. Someone says, the letter up and throw
it away. I think some people like to be don't

(32:10):
like to be scam, but like the attempt to be
scammed because it gives them some sort of part of
the common language. Because we all have to talk about that,
that scam attempt that we've had. Anyway, let's be hearing
from your eight hundred and eighty ten eighty. I've all
a cops to give them a surf for using triple one.
There'd be my take. When human property or is life
is in danger, jeepers, by the way, Nelson or the Marcos.

(32:33):
The Tasman Marcos have won that match just during the
shake and how it is now? Forget the score twenty
one to fifteen or something they just scored right at
the end, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty fifteen away
from thirty one seventeen full time score. There yes one
one one for emergency's only immediate threat to person properly
life hardly an emergency scam letter. Old mate might benefit

(32:54):
from hearing about one oh five Marcus, I have the
same letter, but rest the complete A survey online regarding
hearing aids. I think the letter is a legit. Tear
it up and throw it away. X UIs present Jimmy
cartertoons one hundred. I think that was yesterday. People fourting
away from n My name is Marcus. Welcome breaking news.
What have you got?

Speaker 11 (33:11):
Let me know?

Speaker 6 (33:12):
I wait one hundred eighty ten eighty Have you got
the letter? What are you going to say about the letter?
Get in touch? I wait hundred eighty ten eighty and
nine two nine two detext My name is Marcus hurdled twelve.
Anything else you want to talk about? Boom, We're away,
grocery prices when you've traveled. I'll throw on everything at

(33:32):
you tonight. People. If you're in the mood for talking,
let me know what you've got, particularly the weather, because
it's supposed to be a month's weather in three days,
So there's that. Always up for a discussion about scams
and when you should ring one one one. I don't
think I've everyone ever rung one one one. I'm not

(33:55):
bragging about that. I'm glad I've never had to ring
one one one, but I've certainly Yeah, I wouldn't ring
it for I don't know what to say. I wouldn't
have rung it for a letter about but a hearing aid.
But good on them anyway, Keeping touch twelve away from
nine Marcus till twelve and why no one bikes to school?

(34:18):
Was it a bad thing? I guess it probably is.
I mean, cycling is great for independence numbs. That might
be something you want to talk about also too, because
the bike sheds, I mean, everyone bite now they don't.
And I blame the laws about helmets because it made
people parents think that cycling was unsafe. Oh the other

(34:41):
thing too, that some of you will be aware of.
I meant to say at the start of.

Speaker 4 (34:43):
The show.

Speaker 6 (34:45):
Frank Fritz from American Pickers has died. It's a lot
of tributes around the planet for him, from his co
host etc. I haven't read a lot of details, but
I know that people have mentioned that show from time
to time. He was someone that was beloved and on

(35:07):
a side note, American. I mean, it's all a bit
of an American pick because it's all little bit. It's
all a bit kind of contrived, isn't it. I think
it's kind of all pre arranged. That's my take on
that one. Yeah, thirty one seventeen, Tasim and Marcos retain
the shield, Marcus, if you need a topic. With daylight

(35:31):
savings now in effect, many golf clubs will be starting
twilight golf. Marcus, you already told us what the biggest
scam is. It's a supermarket scam. And I would think too,
where the groceries being cheaper in the UK, Australia and Ireland.
Would that be all because of ULDI, which we're all
desperate to have here. I think it's because they've got

(35:51):
a jeopoly. But I can't work out why they can't
bust the jeopoly because as soon as that gets done,
the better for everyone. That's my take on that one.
It's just not good enough. We need three. We're the
new major player, the disruptor, and they keept talking about
it but never happens. I don't know what needs to

(36:12):
happen for that to happen. But eight hundred and eighty
eight ety my name is Marcus, welcome Heddle twelve. What
have you got here for? At ten to nine? It
is nine from nine? Just the update to the Marcos.
The Tasman Marcos have retained the Ranfury shield looked like
appalling conditions in Trafalgar Park and Nelson a text for
people that went but didn't get out of the camp.

(36:36):
Didn't get out of the camp evan anyway, that's happened.
The netballs out the moment I'll get your school for
their two lines there are free and I think we're
fighting for topics. I want to talk about the price
of groceries and the Caspian c but if anyone's got
anything else they want to talk about. And why people
don't bike to school? Is that a bad thing? I
don't know what the reason is for that. Suddenly I

(36:57):
think bikes became uncool because everyone was into scooters. Then
they fell out of love with scooters, and I don't know.
I think with teenagers kind of they get into the vibe.
They don't want to do something, they don't do it,
it'll make perfect sense to buy it. But there we go.
There's that and anything else you want to talk about.
My name's Marcus. Welcome HDDLE twelve or midnight as we
say in the industry, Mikey Beeban long from twelve o'clock.

(37:20):
But if you want to talk on here, marvelous to
hear from your eight hundred and eighty ten eighty scams
is in there as the list too with a guy
with the letter and then daled one one one talk
about escalation. What service would you like? Ambulance, fire or police? Well, yeah,

(37:44):
that's exactly a good point in it anyway. And today
is the day you should be making your Christmas cake?
What recipe have you gone with? I think we've discussed
this in the path. I think everyone goes with a
woman's weeklies, a woman's weekly one. But today's the day?
Is that what you're doing?

Speaker 16 (38:00):
Morve no what I was bringing for as I went
to we Wor today to get our Christmas mixes because
my wife makes thirty or forty Christmas cakes every years,
and they're behind the eight ball. There's none, no non
mix fruit or anything.

Speaker 6 (38:19):
Oh, that's that's a dereliction of duty. Who did you say?

Speaker 3 (38:22):
That was?

Speaker 6 (38:22):
Walworth? Willworth Woolworth yep, sheepers, creepers that you should doll
one one one for that.

Speaker 16 (38:28):
Move well, because I reckon even when they do get it,
and it's going to be three or four dollars dearer
than everywhere else. Yeah, because we got our dog has
Jimbos medallions for the what was it the salmon medallions?
They were ten dollars last week. This week they've thirty nine.

Speaker 6 (38:48):
Dollars for Jimbos.

Speaker 16 (38:50):
Yeah, that's the frozen one.

Speaker 6 (38:52):
Hey tell me with how many how many cakes did
your mother make?

Speaker 11 (38:55):
Does?

Speaker 6 (38:56):
Does your partner?

Speaker 17 (38:57):
Thirty to forty?

Speaker 8 (38:58):
My wife?

Speaker 16 (38:59):
Yeah, she makes thirty to forty cakes every year. So
how much family and friends?

Speaker 6 (39:03):
How much fruit max would you need for that?

Speaker 4 (39:07):
Oh?

Speaker 16 (39:07):
I don't know. She's not here at the moment, That's
why I'm ringing.

Speaker 6 (39:11):
Okay, but she said you you must have had in
order how much to buy? Did you find some? Anyway? Move?

Speaker 16 (39:18):
No, we'll have to go and go elsewhere. I think though,
it could be at Pack and Save. I think we
saw some there the other day. So we'll start buying
them now because she makes them. You have them all
done and break, all the fruit's done and brandy and
when the cake comes out of the oven, there's a
cup of brandy port over the top and they last
for a whole year.

Speaker 6 (39:39):
What city are you and move?

Speaker 16 (39:42):
I'm in Ascot Park and porri ruh okay.

Speaker 6 (39:44):
I just wondered whether a costco would be good for you.
But that's not the keep us and pasted without people.
What's it's just like fruitt? Is this stuff just called fruit?

Speaker 16 (39:52):
Make get your fruit makes yere?

Speaker 17 (39:55):
Okay.

Speaker 6 (39:55):
I'm going to find out we can get some and
put it on it. So I appreciate that. A Scott Park,
We've got one of those down here. Alan Marcus welcome.

Speaker 8 (40:03):
Yeah, good a Marcus, my friend. I just wanted to
sort of raise with you. I think it's a bit unfortunate,
and I know you don't intend it, but the mocking
of the man from O Taki Gorge ringing up one
one one fair. At least he did something with something

(40:23):
which concerned him, you know, I mean, oh.

Speaker 6 (40:27):
I think I think they're very clear that it's supposed
to be if there's human life.

Speaker 8 (40:32):
Oh yeah, I agree.

Speaker 6 (40:33):
And there is no human life or property and danger
there is there No.

Speaker 8 (40:37):
There wasn't. There wasn't. But I mean, you know, we've
made the made the issue, he's made his mistake, and
you know, I don't think he would do it again.

Speaker 6 (40:48):
I think I think he would. I think that's what
I think. When asked about that, he said he said
he would do that again. That was the whole point
that he was unteachable on that. But but and I
thought probably by highlighting that it would show to others
that the one one one they need, that they need
to keep those lines free.

Speaker 8 (41:08):
A lot of discussion when they bought the one O
five and and sort of pointed out the difference, you know,
and he.

Speaker 6 (41:14):
Said he didn't know the ten eighty number. And I
don't know what the ten because he said, and I thought,
hang on, is that a number four? Because I couldn't
work out when he said the ten eighty number what
it was. Well, either there must be a number for
illegal dropping of ten eighty or something.

Speaker 8 (41:27):
No, no, no, I think he's eight hundred eighty ten
eighty yeah, and he's probably getting mixed up with and I'll.

Speaker 6 (41:33):
Just because there's a couple of texts about that. Marcus
is a clown for dialing one one one. He should
go to http dub dub dub dot cert dot gov
dot NZ, which is a national cybersecurities center. You can
report an inctent on their website. Marcus called one one
one two weeks ago as my husband having a stroke.
First call, they told me ten minutes away, never came rang.

(41:56):
The second time it was thirty nine minutes. It took
fifty minutes to arrive. So people are concerned about the
one one one line not being available for them. Yeah,
and sometimes I think you've gotta highlight things to show
people that. But you know, was he teachable? I don't know.
Scooters are the new bikes must be uncalled. We're a

(42:16):
helmet though, exit wanting to happen. That is from Scott Nelson,
well done or the Marco's well done. You have retained
the RN Frilly shield. I don't think they've ever had
it before. And we are talking Christmas cakes back after
the break.

Speaker 1 (42:31):
You're trusted. Night Time Talk Marcus Slash nights Call eight
hundred News Talk said he.

Speaker 3 (42:37):
When the outside to the two lands winner even more
there maybe time the same time far Roden level want

(43:06):
the ryer.

Speaker 5 (43:09):
Cause I.

Speaker 6 (43:18):
Just the heads up there IDT is reporting the snow
is falling in Otago. So just so you know the
snow has started and I'll keep you update on that.
We're talking Christmas cakes and scams and winter. When to
ring one one one? Would you ring one one one
when you've got a bad letter or a perceive bad letter?
That's the question. That's I think it's probably a useful

(43:38):
discussion point. They reckon you make your Christmas cake two
to three months before Christmas so you can feed it
flu sea monkeys, lyol. It's Marcus. Good evening and welcome.

Speaker 18 (43:51):
Oh hi Marcus. I asked your producer, seeing as you
were in a bit of a topic flux, if I
could broach a different subjects.

Speaker 6 (43:58):
Great flux and topic and producer that's a good sentence, yes,
topic flux.

Speaker 9 (44:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 18 (44:03):
I used to do comms, Marcus, so it's probably right.

Speaker 6 (44:06):
But anyway, clearly Yeah.

Speaker 18 (44:08):
So the thing is, I'd just like to put in
a bit of a word for the Chatham Islands please.
I have I have a family connection to the Chatham Islands,
and they've just been brought from pillar to post by
successive governments to the kicking the can of their their
their supply ship down the down the road, and the

(44:32):
can's becoming very very rusty, and the new governments just
an now it's a couple of weeks ago that they're
bastically kicking the can down the road again in that
they they're not going to stump up the money for
a new ship that's required. They're not going to stump

(44:52):
enough money up for a yeah, to bring the existing
old dunger up to some you know, basic reliability. And
so what happens is basically every year on the Chathams
around April, I think it's around April, basically they find

(45:12):
when they survey the ship that there's more wrong with
it than they thought there was going to be. That
they're obviously glass half full people because and so what
happens is people go into a sort of a bit
of a statum if you like, famine or not. Not really,
but no fuel especially runs very very very low on

(45:33):
the Chathams. Basically the fuel is diesel. You've got to
have a diesel car, and the only stuff that the
petrol is used for is so like you know, weed
whackers and chainsaws and stuff like that. And they've said
that they want to look at by twenty twenty six
getting a contract with coastal shipping companies in New Zealand. Well,
I can tell you after a bit of research, there

(45:56):
are only about six or seven ships in the entire
world that can actually do the job on the Chathams
that is, be able to simultaneously carry with goods dry goods, fuel,
dangerous goods, bolt, minerals, live stock, frozen goods, et cetera,
all within an eighteen meter package and also have its

(46:18):
own crank.

Speaker 6 (46:19):
Yeah, okay, I'm just going to throw a couple of
things at you. The vessel currently is called the Southern Tiari.
Is that right?

Speaker 9 (46:27):
I can't remember too.

Speaker 6 (46:28):
I can and in twenty twenty two and twenty twenty
two the government promised thirty million for a new vessel,
and that money has and I believe because I have
seen the Southern Tiari in the White Mata Harbor. I
think it also does a stretch to Norfolk Island. Am
I right there?

Speaker 4 (46:45):
It does.

Speaker 18 (46:45):
I can't move with the exact island, but it was
earlier this year it's run to the other island, I
don't know where it was was delayed and so the
poor people on the chetams were sort of hanging out
for stuff, and so what that causes and when you've
got this prospect markers of shortage, so people of course
then order more goods than they would otherwise need. Yeah, sure,
and they get it, they get it actually put actually

(47:07):
puts will a strain on things. And and so I
think the government's either being a total bunch of thickies
or it's just a cynical political ploy to you just
kick the can down the road to I think they're
thinking in terms of twenty twenty six there will be
no coast full shipping vessel in New Zealand that can
do all that stuff and to get one, and they're

(47:29):
going to want a huge lack of subsidy, which I
don't think this government will be prepared to do so.
And I just want to draw also your attention to
something else. You might recall the last year a few
there was a picture and stuff of Sergei Provoltion, remember him,
the head of the Wagner Mercenary Group, And.

Speaker 6 (47:54):
On his map, didn't he Yah, you've gone very quite Lyle,
you think it's vulnerable to an invasion by the Russians, Well, not.

Speaker 18 (48:04):
Really, But I'm just saying that other people know that
there's these good things on the chatums, including the nodules
under the sea.

Speaker 8 (48:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 18 (48:10):
And if you treat people really, really badly, like prinstance,
Australia got a bit hot and heavy with Norfolk Island
a while ago about government's arrangements and stuff and losing
their autonomy and stuff like that. You know, people get
a bit upp at you and they might look for
other offers, so to speak. I mean, I'm not saying
it's coming to that now.

Speaker 6 (48:28):
Buttand Lyle, just to bring it back a bit, because
you are hot on this and I can understand that.
And you talk about you've got an association with the Chathams.
Have you been Have you been there?

Speaker 4 (48:41):
No?

Speaker 18 (48:41):
No, I haven't, but it's a distant association. I've got
somebody who's on there now and I've just been I've
just been what sapping them? And well, I was trying
to bring it to the attention of the media a
couple of weeks ago, but basically nobody was interested.

Speaker 6 (48:57):
Yep, great, okay, Well, I appreciate. It's a good topic
for us because I want to know how they're getting
on with the dry goods in Norfolk as well. And yeah,
I think it's a really good look. I appreciate it.
Thank you coming through on that lile and that's good.
So we are talking, and I think that ship goes
I've soon the way to Mata Harbor. I think it
does the leg between Norfolk and the Chattels, which seems weird,

(49:18):
but they do do that, and yeh's quite right. There
aren't many vessels that do that. The Southern Tierta. Don't
know fully what its history is and I don't know
what's wrong with it apart from adult and it's clapped out.
It might be an old ship from the Cooks, the
Cook Islands. I don't know how many crews on it either.

(49:40):
You can see online its current voyage. I think it's
on the way there now. Actually I think it's halfway
across them all right, might be there, Alistair, it's Marcus, welcome,
Good evening.

Speaker 9 (49:54):
Good evening. I've just been at the rem City Shield
match between Tess and Marcos and awkward.

Speaker 6 (49:59):
Congratulations, thank you.

Speaker 9 (50:01):
You know it was a good, good game, but were
Trafalgar Park.

Speaker 6 (50:05):
I saw the shots on the It looked through it
as Trafalgar Park. Has it got covered stands because the
side where the cameras were was just showing the open
stands and there weren't many people there because it was
cats and dogging it.

Speaker 9 (50:18):
No, there was betther been four or five thousand people
there tonight.

Speaker 6 (50:21):
Okay, great, that's well done you guys, thank you. And
plenty coming up from Blenham for that.

Speaker 9 (50:26):
Yeah, there would have been plenty from Blenham. The grandstands
were full and the open stand Yeah, no, that was
recently full, so for a wet night, and you know
it was and it looked it was close to halftime
twelve ten and then the Marcos ran away for in
the second half.

Speaker 6 (50:46):
Yeah, I thought they did very well. Tell me something,
how many challenges now the Marco has had with their
inaugural shield run, so.

Speaker 9 (50:53):
That'll be their official second one, and how.

Speaker 6 (50:56):
Many more do they keep it over the summer?

Speaker 9 (50:59):
They've got to plate Taranaki and then that's the last
one and they keep it over the summer.

Speaker 6 (51:04):
Okay, let's not counting your chickens. And I know that
the take one mate at the time you know absolutely,
and Alistair, I know that some of the subtleties of
the Ranfilly Shield have changed, but you've got to they're
playing you've got to defend it at home still, Taranki's
coming to Trafalgar Park, Is that right?

Speaker 9 (51:22):
Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's right.

Speaker 6 (51:24):
Yes, Okay, Well I hope you guys keep it over
the summer. That's exciting.

Speaker 11 (51:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (51:28):
I got my hands on that shield yesterday.

Speaker 4 (51:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 17 (51:30):
How'd that go for you?

Speaker 9 (51:31):
All right?

Speaker 2 (51:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (51:33):
I lifted the thing and I'll tell you what, it
weighs a ton.

Speaker 6 (51:36):
Yeah, I do want to go around with it. When
south And had it in two thousand and seven, did
it on the Facebook profile as you seem to be
the thing in those days. It went everywhere. But that's
a long time ago.

Speaker 7 (51:45):
Now.

Speaker 6 (51:46):
Team looked good. They looked in tough conditions. They were
got up front, kicking shots, penalties. Look like a good game.

Speaker 9 (51:53):
Yeah, that was entertaining and yeah, no they dominated them
in the second half. Yeah sure they Auckland got a
consolation try at the end there.

Speaker 6 (52:04):
And to see it, but the guy looked like he
was cooked. I thought I did a bit of a
Hollywood at the end of it was going to be
taken away a stretcher.

Speaker 9 (52:12):
I didn't see that side of it.

Speaker 6 (52:14):
Hey, So the next challenge, I know you guys share
it's a combined union with with Marlborough. Is the next
challenge going to be at Trafalgar? Is it going to
be down at Blendham.

Speaker 9 (52:28):
I knew you were going to ask me that question,
and I'm not sure that I.

Speaker 6 (52:31):
Could look up on my I don't like to put people.
I don't like to put people on the spot by
asking a question of the answer to Tasman taran Eki
shield match.

Speaker 9 (52:43):
Well, I think about it. When we spoke on Monday,
you mentioned it was Tessman. That's Tessman, Marcos Marcos.

Speaker 6 (52:50):
I don't like the I don't like the Marcos. I
don't like that.

Speaker 9 (52:53):
But well, you know you know the meaning behind it,
don't you.

Speaker 6 (52:56):
A shark is it?

Speaker 9 (52:58):
Yeah, it's a shark that goes into the Marlborough sounds
and around the tasma and it's hungry. It's a very
determined fish and that shows what the testma the Marcos are.

Speaker 6 (53:08):
I noticed when they score a point they make a
dorsal fin with their hand on the top of their head.

Speaker 9 (53:13):
Yep, that's right, even do it? It's the All Blacks too?

Speaker 8 (53:16):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (53:17):
Okay, but there aren't Marcos and the All Blacks are there?

Speaker 4 (53:19):
Or what going on there?

Speaker 9 (53:20):
Oh yeah, that's the Marcos.

Speaker 6 (53:21):
And okay, very good. Okay, what are you doing now?
You're doing taking the Auckland supporters and the players out
for a look around town? Or what are you doing?

Speaker 9 (53:30):
Well, you'll probably laugh at this. I don't drink matchs,
but I'm going to just across the road from the
Postboy and I'm going to get and have my orange juice.

Speaker 6 (53:36):
I'll go you what's the what's the place called.

Speaker 9 (53:39):
The Postboy Hotel?

Speaker 6 (53:43):
Is that where the supporters? Is that where the supporters go?

Speaker 9 (53:45):
Yeah, it's it's it's good tub.

Speaker 11 (53:47):
Yeah I was.

Speaker 6 (53:49):
They had it on a weekend because it seems like
it seems like the wrong day to have a rugby match,
because they would have got the weather was better if
it ordered. People want it there on a Wednesday evening.

Speaker 9 (53:59):
I was surprised that was a big crowd there tonight.

Speaker 6 (54:02):
Yeah, well done people. That's exciting. Pretty old score the
post war.

Speaker 9 (54:07):
Yeah it's nice inside though.

Speaker 6 (54:09):
It looks cozy. Good ramp there to get in and out.
So you've got to ramp there out the front. It's
a two week pub two.

Speaker 9 (54:14):
You yes, put free food on.

Speaker 6 (54:18):
Well you'll be happy there. I'm envious, HELLISTERA nice to hear.
Thanks for the report. A man's words is on he
as he did come back and you did. Oh Will
Jordan's and Marco thank you. He does the shark, of course.

Speaker 11 (54:30):
Not.

Speaker 6 (54:31):
I haven't yet fallen in love with Will Jordan. I'm
not quite sure what that's about. He must remind me
of someone I didn't like. That's what happens with me.
There's something about him. I don't quite know who it is.
Marcus packin Save Pottydoo only has two fruit mixers left.
Clearly there's been on a run since you mentioned it,
so there is a run on fruit mints people. Today

(54:53):
is a day you should be making your Christmas cake
because you can feed it till Christmas. Marcus been in
a good for Christmas cake dried fruit Gavin Canterbury, Marcus,
the biggest scam in the New is the New World
stick as after spend one hundred dollars, I've been to
our four New worlds and nothing available. I make the

(55:14):
same Christmas cake recipe. That includes a bit of orange
marmalade and one teasprin curry powder which adds warmth to
the palate. It's delicious and disappears very quickly. Can you
tell me where you got it? Marc is slightly off topic,

(55:35):
but throwing in a parent overreacting as a topic. I
think I clearly overreacted with a letter in his lead
of ox, but I thought he must be living in
a tent when he was down on his cell phone
looking like reading. I couldn't work out the call at all.
A couple this is that I continue reading the text.

(55:56):
A couple of years back, while picking up my rental
car at the Crochich Airport, a car close to me
ran me over while pre inspecting the rental. It was
a cramp car park and the driver came right at me.
It turned out to be the disgruntled neighbor been sick
of visitors constantly standing in the drive. It was an
extreme close caller. No doubt he would have seriously injured

(56:17):
me had I not stepped out of the way with
a millisecond despair. Reported to the police, who pretty much
brushed it off and left the feeling it was me
who was overreacting for reporting it. Wow cheap if you
try and use a vehicle as a weapon of intimidation

(56:42):
or try that should have been taken seriously. Anyway, we've
got every topic under the sun on the topic tonight
and so day to make Christmas cakes? Would you put
curry powder on a Christmas cakes? What are we going
to do about the Chathams and their ship? For there
was more and over suspected overreaction reactions, Marcus. If you

(57:04):
don't love will Jordan watch the YouTube video of at
school scoring five tries versus christ College. He was one
meter faster than the tacklers. It's brilliant. There you go,
fall in love with them all over again. Catch you soon.
Twenty three past eleven, twenty three past nine, Sorry, twenty
four o'clock. If someone texts me what channel of DELI
MS or I like to keep that on the background,
see what they're wearing anyway, I know that starts a

(57:27):
bit later, but if you can tell me that, I'd
flip through my channels. Them are remote down of batteries.
It's not looking good. Just free slow through the channels.
I might bite my batteries. That puts Rodney Hey Marcus,
how are you Rodney? Are you Have you been at
the shield match?

Speaker 19 (57:44):
No?

Speaker 7 (57:45):
No, Carrie Carey cheap?

Speaker 6 (57:47):
Is it raining?

Speaker 20 (57:47):
There as pouring down? Marcus?

Speaker 17 (57:51):
Are you on?

Speaker 6 (57:52):
Are you on on tank supply?

Speaker 13 (57:57):
No?

Speaker 4 (57:57):
No?

Speaker 20 (57:58):
Carry curry sply okay. On Sunday, ker Nicky's going to
take the shield off smut.

Speaker 6 (58:07):
Well, I hope not, because Alistair seems really passionate and
Nelson seems to be loving it.

Speaker 20 (58:14):
Karenikey characters have taken off of. He's going to be
crying on Sunday.

Speaker 6 (58:21):
But you're you're carry here? I mean, what do you here?

Speaker 20 (58:25):
Because I used to live in karanike Okay. I was
born in Taranikee. My dad sold the farm and that
me moved up to Kerry Carey. So I'm always Taranicky.

Speaker 6 (58:36):
Living the dream. Okay, Well, I reckon that you're not
going to I reckon Taraniki's gonna win it. So you're
wring me back Monday after e living. Okay, you'll be crying.

Speaker 11 (58:44):
You'll be you'll be crying back.

Speaker 6 (58:46):
I don't cared. I'm not a provincial kind of rugby head.
I just hope that people are happy, and I never
thought that Nelson would have the renfieldish Yield because it
seemed to be a rugby ca It's full of sort
of retired people from England, so I'm surprised that team.

Speaker 20 (59:01):
Yeah, Taranikey's are the trip you of New Zealand.

Speaker 11 (59:05):
Thank you.

Speaker 6 (59:06):
I've got connections with Taranaki Rugby, so I do know
a bit about that. Rodney, thank you. Twenty five past
nine o'clock Marcus, Welcome, Welcome, welcome. Talking overreacting and when
you should ring, when you should and shouldn't ring run
one one because of course there's always famous articles in
the paper that people are called one one one because
they're I don't like what their wife's wearing and stuff.

(59:29):
So it's it's laughable the reasons people do. But you
never should do that. We don't ring at them and
waste their time because they've got you know, human lives
are at stake anyway, that's my rent. We are talking
the Chattamlins and Christmas mainly. I'd like to talk Christmas cakes,
curry powder. That feels like it's my sort of topic,
curry powder and Christmas cakes. So I'm looking at that

(59:52):
and I'm thinking that's wrong, But it also looks so right.
I imagine it just gives that sort of not umami,
but it's certain sort of It's the Dish magazine. I
found a recipe for a spiced crest Sma's cake with
curry powder. That's the one I'll make. This recipe, passed

(01:00:15):
down to my aunt from my paternal grandmother, has been
a family favorite for years. I would always partly politely
tune down Christmas cake. I've tried this one, sweeten with
condensed milk and delicately slut spiced with curry powder. Moist
rich cake will continue to play. Here's the kicker sentence. Kicker,
This moist rich cake will continue to please well after Christmas.

(01:00:37):
Dash if there is any left, it's that delicious. It's
about three pages of ingredients, one tea, spring, curry powder.
I'm all in, literally all in for me. It's not
so much the cake. It's the Marsi pan. But there
you go. Curry powder. Oh, it's a nice cake, cook Marcus. Yeah,

(01:01:00):
curry powder.

Speaker 13 (01:01:01):
Well, is that right, Marcus?

Speaker 2 (01:01:02):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:01:03):
A little bit of curry powder gives it that certain
jines kwa. That's all my conversations for the next three months. Marcus.
I used to he has a good text. Marcus. I
used to hit my head on my great auntie Owner's
Christmas putting hanging in his stocking near the lawn mower
in the shed when i'd know who Lorna's a school
in the nineteen nineties, always a few months before Christmas.

(01:01:25):
Got paid monthly, usually a people fifty note Tristra new Plymouth, Marcus.
I feel the same as you about Will Jordan has
a high opinion of himself.

Speaker 20 (01:01:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:01:35):
I feel that Scores tries when the hard work is done.
The other thing that America's cups don't see anything win
the start, and I think I'll go to bed from
now on. Well, the America's cup, the need the lead
never changes. I don't know why they just don't have
the start. And to clear that person the winner, it
should be the first across the line from the dial
up is the winner because it's never once changed. It's

(01:02:00):
the world's dafts sport. Marcus. It's a very old Christmas
cake recipe and I could email it to you tomorrow
if you're interested. I can't ring as COVID affected my
vocal cords. Oh Mary, we should get you a little
voice thing that you can can use. It's heartbreaking. Has

(01:02:23):
it affected your cooking though? Has it? Mary? It's a
nice positive turn. I'm so excited about buying my fruit
mints and McCurry powder. Thank you Channel fifty four for
the dally Ms. For those that don't know, that's the
big rugby league awards. That's big news in rugby league.
Who's going to get the daly M? And it's the

(01:02:47):
men and women players in the NRL, which always thinks interesting.
Doesn't start till ten thirty, but they've already on the
Paper's got the people arriving. Kiwis won't do very well
at that. It is Kaylen up for anything? I like
Kaylen anyway, get in touch. We are talking secrets to
a good Christmas cake because today is and this is
a very because Dan made notes last year. Today is

(01:03:08):
the day you're supposed to make your Christmas cake. Well,
I'll tell you what I've actually been someone that's a
been someone that's how do I say this delicately? I
tend not to put the like I probably wouldn't put
the tablespoon of rum in it. That's just me because

(01:03:31):
sometimes if you're not a drinker and you can give
it a piece of Christmas cake that's full of brandy
or something. I think the cheapest creepers is that a
Christmas cake or a relapse. And it's a fine line,
but yeah, you know how it works. Don't tell your sponsor,
Oh eight hundred and eighty each out your nine two
nine to text hit or midnight if you want to

(01:03:51):
talk Marcus Christmas cakes and or anything goes. Basically, I
think that guy is fairly genuine about wanting to talk
about the ferry to the Chatham Islands. So that's a
topic that might be important and touch eight hundred and
eighty ten eighty hitdle twelve half past nine Tony headlines

(01:04:11):
please thanks.

Speaker 10 (01:04:12):
Marcus Dallim, Jerome Hughes, he's keys, he's got it, got it.

Speaker 6 (01:04:17):
He could be in there.

Speaker 10 (01:04:18):
And I've always wondered why they have them before the
Grand Final, you know, I mean, you could give it
to You could give the Dallium to a guy who
makes an utter disgrace of himself in the Grand Final,
couldn't you.

Speaker 19 (01:04:29):
Now?

Speaker 6 (01:04:29):
I know because I watched the footy show and they're
endlessly debated, don't they. That's one of the great things
I got many and oh, who should get the dell.
Oh you know, because they must vote for it, don't they.

Speaker 10 (01:04:36):
Yeah, I think they do. But you know, you think
you'd at least wait until the season's over.

Speaker 6 (01:04:41):
Now, look it because I watched the Aussie Rules and
they talked the whole time about who was going to
get some award and that was going to be mainly
on the performance in the Grand Final.

Speaker 10 (01:04:48):
Yeah, I think is that the brown Low?

Speaker 6 (01:04:50):
That was another one.

Speaker 10 (01:04:51):
I think it's another thing.

Speaker 6 (01:04:52):
Yeah, it was another one. I couldn't quite It was
a terrible final. By the way, did you watch that?

Speaker 10 (01:04:56):
No, I'm not into that at all.

Speaker 6 (01:04:57):
No, well I was, and I thought, well, everyone says
you got to watch it, it's so good, but it
was diabolical anyway.

Speaker 10 (01:05:02):
Yeah right, well, okay, so Dallim's down, we'll go into
the head owns. The Prime Minister says he's not as
bothered or sorry, he is as bothered by Dunedan hospital
delays as the city's residents. About thirty five thousand people
took to the streets of Dunedin to protest on Saturday,
outraged by plans to scale back the city's new hospital.
It's understood officials have been briefed over allegations in Australian

(01:05:24):
diplomat's partner was involved in an altercation in Wellington early Sunday,
and world leaders have spoken out against Iran's attack on Israel.
The day after Israel invaded Lebanon, Iran launched nearly two
hundred missiles at Israel, most of them were intercepted. Tonight's
sport excitement is now finished and consigned to the history books.

(01:05:46):
The Tiny Jamison Trophy will be going back to the
UK after New Zealand lost fifty nine to fifty five
to England game of two halves. New Zealand all over
them in the first half, ahead at half time, but
England took control in the second half while New Zealand
faded and in the Ranvilly Shield clash, Auckland were in
with a shout at halftime twelve to ten behind, but
Tasman play the cleverer wet weather rugby and ended up

(01:06:09):
winning thirty one seventeen. That probably flattered Auckland because it
was a consolation try right on the hooter. Were on
those stories at ten or check out Enzend Herald dot
co dot nz.

Speaker 6 (01:06:18):
She's turning twenty nine away from ten o'clock. My name
is Marcus. Welcome, how you're going? Great texts coming through.
I just got to text this one guy back. They'll
get to you, Trevor. Texts I taught Will Jordan. Here's
a very humble, respectful, polite young man who's a real
gifted rugby player. Teachers know, go you, Trevor, because sometimes
people just come across wrong, like the way they hold

(01:06:39):
their heads on the field. They can look a bit
sort of high and mighty. Marcus. I just don't get
festive food like Christmas cakes and putting miss cries across
buns and wedding cake. Not even the icing stuff gives
me the ick. Marcus. I've never made a Christmas cake.
I'm sixty years old. Wonder how common that is. I
think most people under seventy wouldn't have made a Christmas cake.

(01:07:01):
That's why I'm trying to bring it back, because it
feels to me like it's a northern hemisphere. It feels
like it's a winter treat. I mean feel like a
summer treat is more like a pair of lover, or
like a watermelon mint salad or something. You know what
I'm saying, don't you anyway, Marcus, the mvy Kataki is

(01:07:27):
due back on Sunday the sixth from October. Ready for
a busy summer. Marcus, you should have some alcohol in
your Christmas cake, helps for preservation and taste. Noel, there
you go, Well I wouldn't. Oh, let me just text

(01:07:51):
this one person looking forward to your call to people.
A bit of everything. I'll throw in the whole kitchen
sink at your topic. Wise, I just think you come
through your mature enough to come up with your own topic.
I've given you suggestions dialing one one one wrongly biking
to school? Why it's fallen out of favor? Would you
put carry powder on a Christmas cake? The answer is yes,
you should. Do we need a designated ship to go

(01:08:15):
to the Chatham Islands.

Speaker 2 (01:08:17):
Yes.

Speaker 6 (01:08:17):
The answer to that is all these topics and war.
Is it too weary to make your Christmas cake? Is
it too late to make your Christmas cake? It's snowing
in Otago if you've got snowing updates. Apparently it's snowing
on the Lindas, the Crown Range and the Milford Road.

(01:08:38):
So get in touch if you want to talk about
any of those things or anything else you might have
a random scamo get in touch eight hundred and eight.

Speaker 11 (01:08:51):
Text.

Speaker 6 (01:08:54):
If there's something else that you want to talk about,
I'm up for it. But I think these are good topics. Yeah,
promise you that. So there we go, twenty five away
from ten. He told me, still waiting for the text,
that they of course, I'll always put curry powder in
my Christmas cake. But I'll tell you what. In Pottidoa

(01:09:16):
and the Willington area, most of the shops have sold
out of Christmas mix. Marcus Weather put fung Ad a
bucketing down student from christ Jucchio. I used to bike
to school every day until I got my stricter license.
But nothing beats biking with a good tune in your ear.
That was after my time. Christmas cake disgusting, an abomination
to society. It's giving. The Brits just colonized a bunch

(01:09:40):
of people, stole all their stuff, didn't know what to
do with it, so they chucked it on a bot
and baked it. And since the Brits have no taste,
they think salt pepper's seasoning. They thought the horrid thing
was good. Yeah, but I don't know. I always quite
like that icing the arm and flavor of the MARSI
pen that's me should not saying it's compulsory. Have it

(01:10:01):
over trifle all on my apo. Ologies, Jonah want to
come to you earlier, but I clicked the wrong button,
so I apologize. Jonats Marcus, welcome to leave me.

Speaker 21 (01:10:12):
Yes, hello, I realized that, and I put always going
on to your producer chipped in and said, why so
I didn't on my third day of a head cold
and I can only get better. So anyway, what did
you say? Why would you put curry in a Christmas cake?
Because I certainly wouldn't.

Speaker 6 (01:10:32):
Oh, no, that's what that's Yeah, apparently it gives it
a certain something. That's what someone said, they've got a well, yes,
yes you are you are you judging it before you've
tried it?

Speaker 21 (01:10:44):
Well, I don't want to try it because you see,
does your not nice lady Vanessa, does she buy or
does she make a cake?

Speaker 6 (01:10:51):
Not of that generation. It's not a caky person really,
and the kids are The kids haven't been, so they're
not that into it. Yeah, so that would be my
take on that one.

Speaker 21 (01:11:00):
No, Well, I give to my friends and I make
one for my sister. And I used to make one
for mom, and I make three, or I'll give to
my friends. And that's what it's all about. But mine
is if you make a rich cake, that's what you'd
make early. But you know the richer cake is not
always the best. For about forty years, I made a
rich cake, like rich means a lot of fruit, heavier

(01:11:25):
than I make a sultana Christmas cake now six cups
and a big round tin that the base comes out of,
and I have six cups of fruit, and I can
have cranberries and sultanas or just sultanas, and you very
easy recipe, the recipes in my head, and I mean
making this one now for probably fifteen twenty years, and
everybody loves it. In fact, I got a new oven

(01:11:47):
three weeks ago. I thought I'll test my oven, so
got my ingredients, made sure I had enough flour, and
I made my Christmas cake and I gave most of
it away my lawnmar Man loves it too, because he
said it the last few years. But it's so easy
the recipes in my head. I could just go in
my kitchen there and my ingredients in Cabon and I
could just make it.

Speaker 19 (01:12:07):
Not a problem.

Speaker 12 (01:12:09):
So is it just is it just?

Speaker 6 (01:12:12):
Is it just sultanas? Did you say saltana's?

Speaker 8 (01:12:17):
Well?

Speaker 21 (01:12:17):
I use I like to buy good sultanas.

Speaker 6 (01:12:20):
I don't know nice. But do you use no?

Speaker 21 (01:12:23):
No, no, But to get a lot of hard ones,
you really better to buy nice soft ones or Cinderella ones.
The cranberries are nice, and a Christmas cake my bags
or cranberries.

Speaker 6 (01:12:34):
The question I'm building up to Joan, do you not
put in mixed fruit?

Speaker 22 (01:12:38):
No?

Speaker 21 (01:12:39):
I don't buy the mixed fruit. I would prefer to
have the sultanas. And if I want to put cranberries
or currants or raisins, you mix it up and it
makes it different. I don't want every cake to have
to be the same. If I choose to make and
i'm I think, oh it's this one, I'll just put
in four cups of saltanas and two cups of currants
or raisins. And it does cost a little bit to

(01:13:00):
make a cake, but I do it because I enjoy
doing it. It's all part of Christmas, giving away, giving
to your friends, you know, and and that and my
Christmas cake's always been popular. But the one I mate
now so simple, never failed.

Speaker 6 (01:13:13):
Every I was gonna think he's going to say, in
new ovens are data didn't work out, but you've tried
one worked all right? Jo Okay, there we go. That's
thank you. Marcus. Lion Club sells a mean Christmas cake
every year. Marcus. My nana always puts curry powder in
her cakes. Marcus. My mother actually put the mesa pan

(01:13:34):
on the Christmas cake one year. Most peaceful Christmas ever.
Don't believe that. Marcus. Mom makes a fantastic Christmas cake
that has no eggs and use a condensed milk. Love
it and we eat it all year round. Marcus. Yes.
Pop Nelson's population living holding pins sometimes known as retirement homes,
only about fifty people young enough to go to form

(01:13:55):
our rugby team, the Marcos. The huge crowd tonight was
the over sixty five's you've gotten for half price, Go
Nelson with help from the middle age the wine growers
over on Blenham. Nothing wrong with old age and good wine, Marcus,
cheers John. I'm looking for weather reports as well. I'm
looking forward to you dying in a ditch for curry
powder on your Christmas cake and memories of biking to school.

(01:14:19):
That needs to become compulsory. Typical Wednesday night show by
the sounds of things. And what about the Chatnam Islands
and their ship because it goes to the North Okyland.
I don't even know what's going on. There's a story there,
I just don't know what it is. Ah and listen

(01:14:40):
at the Apple. We've we've beaten again. So England's won
the Tiny Jamison Trophy. So they're coming down to invert
cargo for a dead rubber. That's a shame. Be much
more excited. Envcado had the exciting match for quite even
a netbull at the moment, isn't it a Dean Wilson

(01:15:04):
called it a coach killer wow for Mechnasio anyway, get
in touch one names Marcus eight hundred eighty ten eighty.
I think last year we got onto that crowd on
and fung A Padawa that did a pretty good Christmas
cake and they sent me on it was pretty good

(01:15:27):
with I'm only one in the family that ate it,
so it felt like I've got to put the work
in there. But yet, let's be hearing from you people,
Marcus till twelve do get in touch eight hundred eighty
ten eighty anything else you want to talk about mentioned
tonight the ran Furly Shield. It's good. There's a bit

(01:15:47):
of excitement in the ran Fury Shield. There's been more dynamism,
dying dynamics, dynamism, and that this year there has any year.
I think it's moving around. But after Hawk's Bay kind
of Marcus go Joan, I'm with Joan stuff the mixed
peel false Jerry Mine's in my head too. Originally Granddad

(01:16:09):
lens recipe, heaps of sultanas, the good ones and Cranberry's
nice gaz go gazz, But I think the curry powder
is the one. Marcus. The Warehouse tried to bust the
grocery giropoly. The suppliers sold product to them at the
same rates as a supplied duopoly, despite the Commist Commission

(01:16:31):
claiming the Jiwopoli controlled the supplies. But Kiwi didn't support
the warehouse. Aldi announced publicly when the previous government tried
to entice them to jump the ditch that they were
not interested. Companies didn't as our costs are too high.
So the previous government gave cost Co some enticements to
come here. But one thing is for sure, no company

(01:16:51):
will want to have a corporate office in both Islands, Marcus,
I won't make my Christmas cake until November twenty five.
Always came out lovely, except the year I left the
oven on grill instead of bake.

Speaker 8 (01:17:04):
We all do that.

Speaker 6 (01:17:07):
I wish the oven didn't have a grill setting. That
one was burnt on top and raw underneath. Had to
make another one that year, an expensive mistake, Sarah Marcus. Yes,
I have been. This is from denby Marcus. Yes, I
have been to the Caspian Sea. In May nineteen eighty

(01:17:28):
I was traveling through Iran with a tour group and
one day we traveled along the sea south coast, near
the towns of Oml and Babul. My recollections are of
a Mediterranean type of virants, citrus palms, paddy fields, stone fruit,
market gardens, pine trees. Great emails, keep them going. Twelve

(01:17:48):
from ten, you told me, being we're away ten away
from ten all the tens. How you're going by the
way looking at the reports for the weather in quite
a good coverage coming through this wettest placed in the
country in the last hour Kitty Kiddy, with nine point
four millimeters of rain. The person said their tank was overflowing.

(01:18:08):
Windiest place is Caio sixty three k's lowest temperature Queenstown
three point five. Highest temperature Featherston Old Missus Featherston eighteen degrees.
And the front's just about to bang into aalkland to
and come across moist subtropical northeast north north northeast flow,
heavy showers and rain in tent downpours with thunder. If

(01:18:30):
you've got a weather report, heavy rain to many years
the country and heavy start of the south of the
South Island, snow warnings Linda's Crown, Milford, Central, Ottagan and
Queenstown Lakes Orange heavy rain warning, Mount Taranaki, Tasban and
Westland Heavy rain watches North and Corimande, Bay of Pretties
well as Buller Gray, North Otago, Dunedin and Kluther. That's

(01:18:54):
the information for you. That's all you've got. That's all
I've got for you.

Speaker 4 (01:19:00):
Wow.

Speaker 6 (01:19:02):
M oh, Marcus, I was panicking and did I wrecked
at the time. I don't know what I know how
to use it. Compuioisid City apologize, ringing one one one, Oh,
you know, apology. This was curious, Marcus. I missed the
Ernest Adams double ice Christmas cake almond icing with royal

(01:19:25):
icing on top. Goodman Fielder killed off that bread very
sad glen good evening, Marcus, Christmas cake, hot and hot
custard on top, best thing when you're out tramping, Marcus.
The British most probably made them for winter and war,

(01:19:46):
like a hangee or a hagus. That's how the warriors
got to replenish their energy after battle. More for the
living if they lost a lot of mates. Know well, anyway,
get in touch Marcus till twelve eight away from ten.
If you've got any breaking news, let us know. It's
all about the weather here. Internationally, it's all about everything.

(01:20:06):
And wow, we're talking about Christmas cakes because today is
the day twelve weeks before Christmas Today, Today's the day
you want to be making it. But you also want
to be going to get your fruit mixed because countdown
Escott Park Pottyda has sold out. That woman makes thirty cakes.

Speaker 9 (01:20:29):
Wow.

Speaker 6 (01:20:31):
So there's that, and then the controversy about some people
say to make a Christmas cake ready put god, you
put carry powder in it. Why wouldn't it sounds delicious
to ron about today? Also looking for weather updates. If
you're driving through snow, let us know if you're driving

(01:20:52):
through snow, let us know where that is. I think
there might be. I wouldn't be surprised something happening on
the kill Mog or the pig Root or the old
coach road. But we're all across that. So if you're
the weirdest place at the country, that was Kiddy Kiddy
nine mils, I think in the last in the last hour,
Bobart's Marcus. Welcome Marcus.

Speaker 17 (01:21:14):
I'm in Hamlet tonight and not one drop of rain anywhere.

Speaker 6 (01:21:19):
Were you camped.

Speaker 17 (01:21:21):
At the Park Forest Park Lodge motor Camp.

Speaker 6 (01:21:25):
Pretty good there.

Speaker 17 (01:21:27):
Yeah, that's quite reasonable to you, and it's quite a
good camping ground.

Speaker 6 (01:21:30):
You've been to the partner, Yes, I went down. I
had a couplet, nice, nice log fire going.

Speaker 17 (01:21:38):
I know it won my log fire game. It's quite
been very hoty. It's been about nineteen degrees to of.

Speaker 6 (01:21:42):
Course, of course, both both fires going off. I'm completely
disorientated with the weather. Of course, it's nice weather there, but.

Speaker 17 (01:21:52):
I had a bloody that last with me. Crayfish part.
I bought a brand new collapsible crayfish part that all
stop on the way through from Concora and I'll set
it overnight when the tides well out, and then I'll
check it in the morning. Well, it's got my boy
and everything on my name phone number. But when I
went back, it was a way out of sea. So
I don't know what went wrong there. I had two

(01:22:13):
bloody great rocks in it, but obviously the current was
too much for it.

Speaker 6 (01:22:18):
I think they're good people there. I'm connected there. I'll
find out, you'll get it back.

Speaker 17 (01:22:22):
Yeah. So I don't know what there was. And I
noticed the population of the seals is theramatically improved. I
used to go there. Hardly see a seal when I
used to go there, But last night the seals were
and there.

Speaker 6 (01:22:34):
Was that pond to go up and see all the
pups swimming just off the road, which is always quite fun.
Then I think there was the quake. They got wiped out.

Speaker 17 (01:22:40):
But they are back there, you know, they're back in
the back and droves I.

Speaker 4 (01:22:46):
In.

Speaker 17 (01:22:47):
Have you been anyway, Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:22:49):
Hang on, Bob, I've not finished with you yet. Have
you been for a soak?

Speaker 13 (01:22:54):
Oh?

Speaker 17 (01:22:54):
Yes, yes, yes, I did that this afternoon.

Speaker 6 (01:22:56):
Oh okay. The pools were good.

Speaker 11 (01:22:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 17 (01:22:59):
I found them be pricey to what they used to be.
I used to take my family there and I could
get them all on for about fifty bucks, but now
it's forty bucks ahead.

Speaker 6 (01:23:06):
They always ask if you're a local, which I think
is a bit sketch, and I were quite sure if
there's a discount of what's going on there, okay, yeah,
I think we normally go a family pass right, And
I like it because they've got that thing you put
your togs in that spins it and dries it. That's
the highlight for me.

Speaker 17 (01:23:20):
Well, the guy said to me, he said, oh, well,
he said, that's some plation. He said, you know, we're
just keeping up what I'm plation. I said, well, my
bloody pensions hot.

Speaker 6 (01:23:26):
Keeping what I never knew. It's run by the councilor
as it's run by the Hierinoi District Council. I think
it's not like a private concern. It's a right yeah,
I think so so, and I'll tell you what to
be fair. And I've been going there for a large
number of years. They do always keep it fresh. They're

(01:23:48):
always you know, it's always well maintained. They're always putting
new stuff in there. So you know, as as far
as hot pools go, I think it's incredibly well run.
It always seems probably.

Speaker 17 (01:23:59):
I mean it is one hundred and fifty for a
family pass to go to the one yet yeah okay, yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:24:04):
You see what you should like, what you should have
has gone early, got the wristband, gone to the pub
for a couple then come back out and give it
another lesh.

Speaker 17 (01:24:11):
Yeah. Well you can only do that if you have
to pay forty eight dollars and you can go in now.

Speaker 6 (01:24:15):
Okay, oh yeah, okay, nice to hear from you, Bob.
We have an expensive day for you. What were the
hot pools and the crayfish potter? How much was the
gravest pot too?

Speaker 17 (01:24:25):
And exactly? Marcus? Never mind, hang on, hang on?

Speaker 6 (01:24:31):
How so it's still is the pot still on the seafloor?

Speaker 17 (01:24:36):
Well, I don't even have an accause you got se
from Marcus, because I actually seen the boy, and for
the boy to be floating, it must have been held
up by the current because I had quite a long
rope on the boy. But it should have sunk or
where I seen it.

Speaker 6 (01:24:51):
You could find a friendly person to go out there
and retrieve it for you. You didn't, There's no.

Speaker 17 (01:24:56):
I was talking to a guy and he see the
idea is to get those old window sessions.

Speaker 6 (01:25:01):
Oh that's a bit smart. After the point, we want
your if anyone's is it north or south of cauld.

Speaker 17 (01:25:08):
Just just just north of kar Koora, About how twenty
k north I was?

Speaker 6 (01:25:12):
And what's on the boy? What's written on it?

Speaker 17 (01:25:15):
My registration number of my vehicle, my phone number.

Speaker 6 (01:25:19):
So your phone numbers on it? Okay, Well, let's hope
that someone does the right thing. I think that I
think I think they will have always had extremely good
experiences with the people of kay Kutta. So this is
a peacher that's that's his Christmas crayfish there people. I'll
check in fifty to a reward too. If anyone brings
it back from just the spirit of Christmas, You're trusted.

Speaker 1 (01:25:40):
Late Time Talk Marcus Slash Nights Call eight hundred News Talk.

Speaker 5 (01:25:45):
Said when outside even more, maybe it seems I'm far.

Speaker 4 (01:26:14):
Fong rio because I away.

Speaker 6 (01:26:22):
By now part of my time during the news I
am concerned about Bob's crayfish pot and Boi which is
floating off the coast of kai Kolder. Maybe if you

(01:26:42):
a chance, Bob, if you can bang through a text
to me of what it looks like we're gonna throw
some social media and hopefully to help it get it
back to you. But if you else, I don't know.
I guess a fisherman, well, I guess fisherman will leave
it there because I think it belongs to someone. But anyway,
so there we go. People in Cakaro, if you can
help find Bob's boy and it's crayfish pot because he

(01:27:03):
was expecting good things from that. I don't know much
about that. How you'd retrieved them. You're doing it all
legally at his fishing license and stuff there, So there
might be someone that's got some suggestions about that. Now,
how you're going people? My name is Marcus Hddle twelve.

(01:27:24):
There have been a large number of things we've talked
about tonight. I guess that will continue. I'm looking at
the coverage of the weather. There is coverage of the weather,
and I say that because people are expecting this to
be a big event. I don't know if it's happened yet.
It's hard for me to know, is I sit here
because I rely on people phoning in to tell me
what's going on. So if you have got a weather

(01:27:48):
update for us, I think people find that interesting. So
the latest I've got for you. The Tiano Milford Road
is closed. But it's snowing in South it's snowing in Otarga.
But I'm not in or wear. But have he got

(01:28:08):
some information for us? Would be nice to hear from
you if you particularly if you're seeing stole on the
Lindus or anything like that too. The other news to
it's twelve weeks till Christmas today. Today is the day
you're supposed to make your Christmas cakes. The only news
I have about those is that Countdown and Potty Da
has sold out of mixed fruit or fruit mints, so

(01:28:30):
there seems to be a run. A lot of people
are making their cakes now. The other controversial thing about
Christmas cakes is that one woman rang up she puts
carry powder on hers. I thought, heck yes, who doesn't
want a bit of information about that? Marcus. Last night
someone asked about oven cleaning. There was a video on
Facebook with an oven cleaning hack involving a Piereix or

(01:28:53):
other glass type oven dish. One liter of boiling water,
one soft gel dish washing capsule. You put the boiling
water in the dish, throw on the jeal capsule place
in the center of the oven, closed the door, and
set the oven to one hundred degrees for one hour.
The oven's surface can be wiped down with a damp
cloth and all the grime comes away easily. That's from

(01:29:15):
Rose anyone tried that, I'm up for since it's one
of those bits and bobsy nights with daylight savings and
school holidays and yardy, yardy and everyone on holiday. Let
us know. I mean, I think any topics that are
kind of going to grab tonight. So if anyone's got
suggestions about oven cleaning, I'm all in about that as well.
So oven cleaning. The other topics that we've bounced around

(01:29:37):
a bit, whether the ferry the boat to the Channam
Islands and how the government won't fund a new one.
Also why people are no longer cycling to school. That
seems to be a shame, I think, because people seem
to enjoy that gives kids independence to good things. So
there's if they are topics you want to chime in on,
it's all up. It's all up for grabs tonight. I've
kind of enjoyed it, but we're kind of it's a

(01:29:57):
bit around the no real topics. I just started raining
and talking our a bit, wouldn't but nothing to panic about.
Very steady rain last how in wyot Wyoteta, Northland. Pete
love your show. Thanks Pete. Marcus. Three days rain in

(01:30:18):
a month would equate to ten millimeters at Springston irrigators
all going one hundred miles would be good. Bob, thank
you Marcus. Can you please put a plug in for
my book at Dimmick's hard Copy or Amazon Kindle The

(01:30:39):
Great Ethanol Aestriel cover up in New Zealand. Well, what's
that book about? Andreas Hagan? I don't know what that's about,
but yeah, I'm liking a book. Recommendation said it's a

(01:31:00):
Norwegian footballer. I don't I can't kind of google what
the books about. Oh yeah, it's a really complicate you.
You should have got to catch your title. I'm just
trying to google what it's about. Wow, it looks pretty

(01:31:27):
niche could you text me what it's about. It's written
by man. Since the early nineteen sixty ethan leestradole has
been marketed as an aural quat contracept of active agredient

(01:31:48):
and later HRT active agredient. Now one man delves deeper
just to reveal just how toxic this ingredient really is.
Ready beware, but there we go. That's happening. It was
kind of to text that through to be thirteen past
ten minutes of interest. Get in touch, Marcus till twelve Marcus.
My mother used to make a beautiful moist wedding in

(01:32:08):
Christmas cakes. She put a cake on the bead to rest,
and our best at hound dog jumped on the bed
and dog a bite out of it. My mom did
a quick last minute patch job. People said it was
the nicest cake they've ever had, wonderful flavor. Marcus, don't
hear much about porch pirates on talk Wack, nor complaints
about career drivers. That's trying to mention that the other

(01:32:29):
week that the complaints have gone quiet. Anyway, all the
lines are free. My name is Marcus. Welcome Heddle, twelve
o'clock oh eight hundred. So Chuck Ovan, come on, oven
cleaners into the mix. If you've done that, heck with
the dishwasher liquid. That would be good to talk about
and and and and the weather and anything else you

(01:32:53):
want to mention tonight. My name is Marcus. As I've said,
huddle twelve o'clock tonight, so anything, it's your show tonight.
Oh I am the curry powder on the Christmas cake
or great Christmas Cake successes and failures. But today's the
day you're supposed to cook it and then you can
feed it for the next three months with brandy or
something to keep it more. I don't I never knew that.

(01:33:14):
That's why I've celebrated this day. It was such a
surprise you spoke. Who'd be that organized to have them
three months ahead? Very surprising. A good victory for the Marcos,
the Tasman Marcos and the ran fairly shield. They've defended
that against Auckland. I got one more defense and that
is Taranaki and who can help us rechieve retrieve Bob's

(01:33:39):
boy floating off Kaikulda. They are good people there, so
I think you will get it back. I help myself
and do something, but I'm busy with school, holidays and
the like. But anyway, you're David's Marcus.

Speaker 17 (01:33:56):
Welcome, Koay Marcus.

Speaker 7 (01:33:59):
I've just been out with the car here in christ
Church as Drisley and quite completely cold, i'd say about
ten degrees. What's my phone? Say my phone says you
about ten degrees here and here in christ Church. Hey,
if you're in Hemnah Springs, you get it for twenty
bucks if you can, if you've got some paperwork that

(01:34:19):
you have got a residence in the Hernui area district
area because it is the council run by the council.
The forty bucks, I think is a steep. I try
and get up there once or twice a month to Hemna.
I enjoy it for a soap something different too.

Speaker 6 (01:34:38):
It's great. You get to look at everyone in the ponds.
Everyone's happy. Great convoys, Bob Dave. What's Bob's work around?
How does it? What does he need to because he's
living in a camberve and he's retired. What's what? What's
is this?

Speaker 8 (01:34:48):
Some?

Speaker 6 (01:34:49):
Have you got some some here?

Speaker 14 (01:34:51):
You can let him and on year scam.

Speaker 12 (01:34:54):
Well, you can never chet with management.

Speaker 7 (01:34:58):
Because otherwise you see, I was helping a sheer milk
er up in Colvid and either there or go and
raid somewhere were the box up there and cole and
around coverden and and non de plume and put that
for the PaperWorks out of here for twenty bucks rather
forty years A bit steep.

Speaker 6 (01:35:17):
I think it was forty eight. If he wants to
go to the pub and come back, which is you
do want to do, don't you? Because you get thirsty.

Speaker 7 (01:35:24):
To the pub forty knows forty dollars to get into
him the s friends.

Speaker 6 (01:35:30):
Dave. I think he said it's forty eight for multiple entries.
If that's the right expression, to go in and go
out then come back. So a couple of bees because
you get starving and they've only got eia there, so
you want to go somewhere else for a bike to
we can come back.

Speaker 7 (01:35:44):
Well, Marcus, you go to them at the reception and
say I'm hitting out for a bit and I'm going
to come back. You mean a whole day pass.

Speaker 15 (01:35:51):
I'm with you now.

Speaker 6 (01:35:51):
Yeah, I think it's forty eight to go in once
it's forty, But to go and leave and come back
in as forty eight bucks.

Speaker 7 (01:35:59):
I will have a chat with him when I'm walking out.

Speaker 22 (01:36:00):
I wouldn't pay forty eight.

Speaker 9 (01:36:01):
I think that's ridiculous.

Speaker 6 (01:36:03):
You should write a book of some of your life
hecks because it's right. Because the thing about those hot
pools at Brighton Beach, they're very reasonably priced, you think, I.

Speaker 7 (01:36:13):
Think twenty bucks is with steak because you must remember
that I'm a member of the council polls and I
pay you thirteen dollars a week, and that's as many
times as I want to go every day.

Speaker 6 (01:36:25):
I just asked my partner how much it costings. She
normally have things before she tells me, so I wouldn't know.
Actually I thought you. I thought you said it was
twelve bucks, so it did seem cheap.

Speaker 15 (01:36:35):
Yeah, well I think it may have come down, but
I don't think it would have No, no.

Speaker 7 (01:36:42):
No, I'm not me neither. But anyhow, that's my two
bobles with and I hope he gets as when he
carayfish bit nip back. It surprises me that if it
was weighted down and it hit the bottom, that the
tides would put it up and move it. But any
her option was you just swim out and grabbed them thing.

Speaker 6 (01:37:00):
Okay, we'll find out something with a kayak or a canoe. Yeah,
but the last thing he wants advice about windows. She's
the guys you've just got and helped them. Greetings anyway,
get in touched Marcus still twelve Marcus, My oven still

(01:37:20):
looks brand new, paced with white vinegar and baking soda
forty minutes low oven with boler water wipe, sparkly clean,
no harsh chemicals.

Speaker 11 (01:37:31):
Have it.

Speaker 6 (01:37:31):
Heavy rain for the last three hours here in Brown's Bay.
Mike Marcus, it's Marco nos and moldy so no so
not Marco's. He still feels still sounds kind of strange,
singularizing when I'm fair enough Yeah the Tesmond mark, are
you fair enough well spotted?

Speaker 11 (01:37:56):
Oh wait?

Speaker 6 (01:37:56):
One hundred eighty Teddy and nine two ninety six Marcus
till twelve looking forward to what you've got to bang
on about tonight. This cold weather system comes up the country, friendly,
trying to update you on the news. But if you're
traffic driver, if your driver is doing traffic, you know
what I'm saying. If you are a driver and have
got a traffic report for us, let's be hearing you

(01:38:22):
because I'm giving all the information I can to you.
Active front and the Tasman moving in from the west.
Heavy rain for many areas, Snow warnings Linda's Crown, Milford,
Central Otago, Queensland Lake Orange heavy rain warning for Mount
Tatahaky Tasman and Westland. Heavy rain watches Northern Corimanal Bay
of Plenty, Bollo, Gray, North Otago, Danin and Cluther southand

(01:38:45):
escapes it Marcus. Things that never should have been invented
Space saver tires aka biscuit tires and snow tires. Marcus,
I'm a Christmas Chris. I'm a Christmas cake connoisseur with
almost sixty years dedication to tasting traditional English to whatever

(01:39:06):
key call a fruitcake. One of the best that I
love is Copeland's Christmas Cake Iced. It's truly superb. They
make it all year round. Definitely the best, but not
for North Island. As cheers, Mark love the show as
always Ham No hot pools offer significant discount with the
AA cards. Didn't know they had a card. Catch you

(01:39:27):
soon nineteen past ten or the twos twenty two twenty
two with a twenty four o'clock or otherwise known as
ten twenty two Apart from you, Karen nine twenty two
For you, Marcus, Big wins but no rain yet in
the Hills of Manga Taltari. Thank you for that. Getting
touch people, anything goes not looking forward to your calls.
The oven hecks, the Christmas cake hecks, the curry powder

(01:39:48):
and the Christmas cake. If you want to get serious,
we have two about the ships a Chatham Island. They
can't get funding for that. Why kids don't bike to
school anymore? What's that about it as International Bike to
School Day even though it's the holidays. He is an
irony there. I don't know if cycling was uncool for
children or they enjoyed walking. Maybe.

Speaker 4 (01:40:08):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (01:40:11):
Marcus, it should be the Marcos. What sport team is
in the singular all blacks, not all black? Highlanders Crusaders, Chiefs,
the ego. A thought about Bob's cray pot. It may
be possible the boy may have detached from the craypot.

(01:40:31):
The pot might still be there and full of craze.
That's from Emmett. By the way, I apologize for struggling
to pronounce the word boy. You say boy, it sounds wrong.
I don't if you supposed to do. I think the
Americans say boy. I think they said boy on poor Patrol.
I don't know how they say it. The Kiwis could
say it or not. But the ego, and that's about

(01:40:55):
everything I've got. People, if you got anything of it,
if there might be a different topic you want to
come through with tonight and that's good. See Michelle Langston
has gone from celebrity treasure island that's of interest to you.
Getting down to the pointy end of that, I think
they do pretty well to not tell everyone who's won
that they must be sworn on secrecy because you never hear,

(01:41:16):
do you. They must do it with the fear of
God that they had to tell anyone who's won that thing.
Good on them. Seems to have been a very popular
series this year. I know who I want to win.
I have seen it, but if I won't tell you that,
I wait on it happens, and I will give you

(01:41:37):
the updates of the dally M that's on tonight too well.
I think it starts about eleven o'clock, but hopefully the
Key with Jerem Hughes will win the ultimate medal. I
think Caylin won it last year. Of course injured most
of this year, so there you go. Karen Marcus, welcome,
good evening.

Speaker 23 (01:41:56):
Hey Nikis, how are you good?

Speaker 4 (01:41:57):
Thanks?

Speaker 11 (01:41:58):
Karen?

Speaker 23 (01:41:59):
Good Hey. I'm looking at the website for the pool
at New Brighton, which I have been to before and
I love them as well. And a standard adult entry
is twenty three dollars how much a family for two hours?

Speaker 4 (01:42:15):
Though?

Speaker 6 (01:42:15):
You know how much is a family pass?

Speaker 23 (01:42:18):
A family pass is fifty four. It's two adults, two.

Speaker 20 (01:42:23):
Children, four fifty four?

Speaker 13 (01:42:26):
Is it?

Speaker 1 (01:42:27):
It is?

Speaker 23 (01:42:28):
But then you've got senior citizens or community servances card
that's eighteen dollars okay. And then they do have one
that if you're crosst your city council residents, so like
you can show your rates, then it's only eighteen as well.

Speaker 17 (01:42:47):
Okay.

Speaker 6 (01:42:48):
I wonder what, yeah, wonder, I wonder how thorough the
proof is needed for Hamner for the pensions to get in.

Speaker 23 (01:42:55):
Yeah, I've been to Hander a few times, but I'm
not too sure. I've got one of those that you know,
if you're in the area. That I certainly know because
i book online for the new Brighton ones and I've

seeing Bob's Bowie, it's got his phone number on Please
return it to him. It's his phone number on it,

Thanks Macaus. Yes, you're right, No one really wants to
be angry on a wet Wednesday night, except for your
coworkers because they've turned our coffee machine off, really and
we're not happy. There is a sense of rebellion in
the air.

Speaker 6 (01:46:58):
What does what does that involve?

Speaker 10 (01:47:00):
I don't know how they've done it because we can't
turn it back on.

last coffee, and there we go, the thing has turned
itself off. And maybe it's turned itself off.

Speaker 6 (01:47:18):
I reckon, that's not too I reckon. Management could be
called with something like that.

Speaker 10 (01:47:21):
It's probably true we were thinking of calling in someone
just before and demanding that it be switched back on,
but it could be a little bit over the top
of the'd just tell us to get over ourselves and
drink instance, which is barely possible anyway. Headlines Labor says

Eight hundred and eighty eight ted We're looking for this
team coverage of the weather. Potential flash flooding in eighty
killing me to per hour gales. Now it's hard to
report on this because if it doesn't happen, people say
they've talked up. If it does happen, people say, why

(01:50:24):
woudn't they given warnings. So I think the answer is
you're supposed to make these decisions yourself. All the ingredients
are there for something quite serious to happen in the
next twenty four hours, So do be warned about that.
My name is Marcus twenty seven to eleven. Be good
to hear from if there's anything else you want to
talk about. By the way, too, there is a great
soul or injection about to happen. So the Aurora Australis

(01:50:51):
Facebook page says in the next three or four days
that it will be very visible the Aurora. It could
even be seen in Auckland, which very really happens. So
and the good thing is once the rain goes away,
the good thing is that because the moon is knew,

(01:51:13):
it should show up.

Speaker 8 (01:51:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:51:18):
So there's a lot of people posting on the Aurora
Australia's page saying it could be really really good in
the next couple of days. So that's some information for you.
It's a mess solar rejection, that's what they're calling it
is sharky, Marcus, good evening high sharky.

Speaker 15 (01:51:39):
Yeah, Marcus. I've just left the mount and these the
weather was a little bit drizzy, not too bad. When
I came over the comi as one of the way
back down to the mount. It was was pretty rough
coming over there. It was quite windy. But yeah, so
the weathers sort of just starting to settle in here.

Speaker 6 (01:52:00):
Okay, someone's just texted me, Marcus. We're in Cockle Bay.
Auckland's getting smashed by the storm. So it seems that
it's can hear it out the back of their too? Yeah,
there going in and out shaky.

Speaker 15 (01:52:14):
But did you ever watch American Pickers?

Speaker 6 (01:52:19):
Yes?

Speaker 15 (01:52:21):
Did you know that one of the guys off the
air he died today.

Speaker 6 (01:52:24):

there's one guy, a thinner, taller guy that looks like
the guy off Home Improvement. It's not him, it's the
other stock here guy, right, Fritz, Yeah, Frank Fritz Yeah.

Speaker 15 (01:52:37):
Yeah, yeah. And do you know they started out on
YouTube and I have a YouTube channel which is all
about my life on the on the advocato, which you're
then driving the trucks.

Speaker 6 (01:52:51):
Okay, there's a lot of me to unpick here. Firstly,
I didn't know that American pickers started on a YouTube channel, right,
So that's of interesting.

Speaker 15 (01:52:58):
Originally that's how they originally started doing this on YouTube.

Speaker 6 (01:53:03):
Okay, because sometimes it seems a bit contrived. But they
know where they're going anyway, don't they. They know that
they're going to go and find stuff. And it seems
a bit kind of organized now, But people seem to
love it, and I've enjoyed the time as i've watched it.

Speaker 15 (01:53:19):
Yeah, it's it's interesting. But what I've done I started
my own YouTube channel because one day I hope to
be famous.

Speaker 6 (01:53:27):
So tell me. Okay, firstly, I didn't know you're an
avocado farmer.

Speaker 15 (01:53:34):
Yep, no, we've got the well, as I think I
told you once before that I'd moved to Keddy Keddy
and was living on the avocado orchards but driving the
obviously the courier truck at night from uh Towering to
Auckland and back and doing the New Zealand courier thing.

(01:53:56):
And yeah, and I have a YouTube channel which is
all about like you you know, when I told you
about me driving the trucks, and and also life on
the evocado orchard and a lot to do with everything. Really,
I go to so many different places that are poppingto
these places.

Speaker 6 (01:54:15):
How many trees do you go?

Speaker 15 (01:54:17):
One hundred and fifty two?

Speaker 6 (01:54:19):
Is it a commercial enterprise?

Speaker 15 (01:54:22):
Yeah, so we we basically sort of least the orchard
and least PGG writes and to the rest.

Speaker 6 (01:54:29):
Okay, so you sell them through that, they're the ones
that sell them.

Speaker 15 (01:54:33):
Yeah. They take the all the fruit and all that.
And I just look after the grounds on the orchards, mowing,
you know, with a mower and and that sort of thing.
And we have all the fruit we ever want to eat.

Speaker 6 (01:54:46):
And what's the name of your YouTube channel?

Speaker 15 (01:54:49):
Okay? It's called fun Times with Sharky in z Wow.

Speaker 6 (01:54:58):
Okay. And how many posts have you done?

Speaker 22 (01:55:01):
Oh?

Speaker 15 (01:55:01):
I do I do like a half an hour to
an hour show every week I've been doing I've been
doing that for the last half an hour.

Speaker 6 (01:55:10):
What do you do for half an hour to an
hour with one shot?

Speaker 15 (01:55:12):
I interview people and I go and like you know,
I interview I interview some really famous people. Actually it's
really cool. I get to meet so many different people,
but you'd have to watch the channel terms I'm trying
to get.

Speaker 6 (01:55:25):
So, who have you interviewed?

Speaker 15 (01:55:29):
The famous race car driver Graham Standring, he was the
midget champion, The guy that owns a j V eight Ford.

Speaker 13 (01:55:40):

Because I own a classic jag the guys up at
the Jag you were a specialty place for parts up
in Walk with interviewed that they're on the latest one
that I've done. But I do all sorts of stuff

(01:56:02):
in that show. You know, it's not just interviewing people.
It's on about cavs that I'm working on. And then.

Speaker 6 (01:56:11):
You'll get you'll get picked up, but you'll get picked
up by a network Fun Times.

Speaker 9 (01:56:16):
With Sharky ed.

Speaker 22 (01:56:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 18 (01:56:20):
But sadly I've got to say. I've got to say tonight,
I've just finished in the Mountain and tomorrow I'm going
up talking and my.

Speaker 15 (01:56:26):
Dad's got days, maybe hours less to live. So yeah,
he's got pancreatic cancer. So my week is going to
be a bit up and down going up there.

Speaker 6 (01:56:40):
Oh yeah, I'm not saying I'm not saying that. Are
you saying that You're you also won't be posting for
a while because of that. I think we understand that.

Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, probably I'll take a week off,
but yeah, yeah yeah, but check out the channel and
I've got.

Speaker 6 (01:56:55):
More question I've got more questions Sharky Fun Times with
Sharky ends ed. So I know it's all about analytics.
How many people watch your most watched show? Would it
be hundreds or thousands?

Speaker 15 (01:57:07):
Are hundreds because it's only been going for like the
last of the of the complete shows I've been doing,
which would be around about eight so the last eight
weeks of different of of sort of hour long shows.
So it started out I was doing little posts of
like five minutes, you know, ten minutes. But then I

(01:57:30):
put a formula together and I started doing it as
like our half hour to hour long show.

Speaker 6 (01:57:37):
What's the formula?

Speaker 15 (01:57:38):
And I think I've done it pretty professionally, just bringing
bringing little different aspects to it. I have a bit
there that's called inserting something random, which is about like
the last one that I the Inserting something Random was
about two videos that were taken from the trucks being

(01:58:02):
driven at night where cars either cut me off or
is one where there's a guy standing in the middle
of the road, okay, which is on the latest video.
And then these other things like let's have a chat,
which is the interviews I do with these people, you know,
with the people around the place, and.

Speaker 6 (01:58:23):
Yeah, okay, so fun Times with Sharky.

Speaker 19 (01:58:27):
In z.

Speaker 15 (01:58:29):
Yeah, and it's on YouTube.

Speaker 6 (01:58:31):
Brilliant Okay, Sharky. I appreciate that I watched that. I'm
not gonna watch it now, but yeah, I'm liking that.
I'm like, what you're gonna say about that? Who else
have got their own YouTube channel? Fun Times with Sharky
in zed nineteen to seems though it's really throwing it
down an awk at the moment. Subsequently, I've just got
about four spontaneous texts Marcus, it's not it is now blowing,

Marcus Hittle twelve. We've got some weather updates sort of
the only story for tonight. Yeah, let's hear from you.

And oven cleaning zere is a topic also too, and
all sorts of other stuff also tonight too. It's sort
of bits and bobs and bounced around topic wise. But
if you want to add with any of these things,
or there's something else different you want to mention, I
like to hear from you. Eight nine nine to detext

(02:00:01):
Tasman has defended the Ranfurdy shield. Good on them, very wet.
Trafalgar Park, Nelson. I haven't been to a sporting event
at Trafalgar Park, don't I presume it's named after Captain Well,

just trying wondering as I googled that up before. But anyway,

(02:00:23):
if you do want to mention anything about that, my
name is Marcus. Welcome hered or twelve o'clock and let
me think, and how are we going to get Bob's
crayfish pot back? I think if people find it, they
would phone the person. Wouldn't they chuck that down north
of Caikota. Now I can't find it. It's blown out

(02:00:44):
to sea, which is weird, maybe with crayfish in it.
I did enjoy that call yesterday by that guy that
got money back from his pothole which damaged his car.
Quite excited about that. Actually, think about that of it today. Also,

(02:01:08):
if you are out for Christmas cake trying to buy fruitments,
there's short supply of that. Don't know why. It seems
to be in a bit of a run with people
making their Christmas cakes early this year. It might be
something you've got some information on also to to keep
your text and calls coming through. Oh, eight hundred and eighty, Marcus.
If the Americans say bowie, how would they pronounce buoyant

(02:01:28):
or buoyancy? Very good point. They might say buoyant. I
think we just say boy, don't we not Bowie always
feels weird because it's room for confusion. But yeah, the
big storms, the big winds heading Auckland about now, and
I'm just trying to keep you updated with coverage. They're

(02:01:48):
supposed to be snow in the south. Also, I haven't
seen reports yet of any if you have some information
about that, yeah, good, good, good good. I'll just look
at the running forecast now for the on one of
the websites, they've got kind of a banner of different
kind of news stories and through.

Speaker 9 (02:02:08):
By.

Speaker 6 (02:02:09):
I think State Highway only four wasn't closed because of
the weather, it was closed because there was a avalanche
hazard there. The Hodaki Golf included the front is moving
off the Tesman all across the upper North on Thursday,
triggering a moist subtropical north and northeast dear flow at

(02:02:31):
hating heavy showers. Some periods of a night could be
intense downpaurs with thunder. I think that's what Auckland's experiencing now.
Thirteen away from ten o'clock twelve, from eleven head midnight,
Micky Beeban long from twelve. Someone said storm is wild
and Milford North Shore. My rattles, my windows rattled so
loud I almost choked on my sherry. That's from Adrian.

Yeah, yeah, I be back for about six months now,
and the roads up here are horrendous. On know, why
where's the where's all the text money going? It's not
coming up here.

Speaker 6 (02:07:12):
It's going on roads, and it's going on roads and
to landlords and to tobacco companies. I mean, that's the reality.
Gotta go your set phone lines terrible, David, enjoy your
meeting up and nice to hear from you. Marcus. I'm
an audio. The weather is wild, gales and extremely heavy rain.
I can tell when people start texting like that, it

(02:07:34):
seems like there's a real weather system happening. No reports
are flooding yet. Let me just tix the end z
edta make sure all the roads are open. But yeah,
you kind of get a sense that when people tack
stuff through that we are in the middle of like
a fairly heavy weather event. I don't know if the
thunder of the lightnings happen. We will get toinde the

(02:07:54):
cover out the next hour also too. So I'm just
checking the highway set as and enclosures because of the weather.
Yet can't see anything so far, not seeing anything reportable.
But mind you, I don't love the I don't love
that website anyway, but I find hard together never navigate round.

(02:08:18):
But yeah, it seems as though it's all good. Nothing's
closed because of the weather. Of course, the Mungamuka Gorge
is still closed. That's been that like that for a while.
I'll con see to keep you up there, there are
reports of snow in the South Island and if anyone's
got any more information about that's if you can get
that through to I say, woo a hat til midnight tonight,

(02:08:40):
BB and Mikey from twelve looking forward to what you've
got to say, get a monkst if you can, oh,
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty.

Speaker 1 (02:08:50):
Call eight hundred for some after hours chat. Marcus slash
Knights on News Talk said b.

Speaker 5 (02:08:58):
Outside Tolands on even more there. Maybe it seems I'm fine.

Speaker 4 (02:09:24):
One the wong rier because I way, ye.

Speaker 6 (02:09:34):
Sir, well, it seems that Tasman Terra has finally struck
about three hours late than expected. But I'm seeing a
lot of spontaneous texts about the weather. I guess it's
not until the morning will know how bad it is,
whether there's flooding or stuff like that. I read the
texts Marcus, heavy rain and wind at the Brindeau's fingers crossed.

(02:09:55):
There's no majors slipped to close the road. That's from
Sue Marcus heavy rain and strong winds in g I Auckland,
never see anything like it. That's from Paul for those
that don't know g I. That is Glen Innes driving
from Monganui whether not bad while driving to KK Kitty

(02:10:18):
Kitty as well. Marks. It looks like at decide to
do some roadworks on the southern tonight, so we're all
being re routed all around the shop on this lovely
stormy night. Might be all around the show on this
lovely stormy night. That might be a typo. Marcus in
the city, go to Ka Tai, but only in the day,
not at nighttime. Cheers justin Where I've got the bus from.

(02:10:41):
I've got the bus from pie here, but not from
not from all the way. I think we've got them
I feel like doing a bus tour of the country.
Actually I do like my buses. You even know what's
going to happen on a bus. A lot of it
not good, Marcus an audio, whether weather, it's wild gales
and extremely heavy rain, heavy rain, So what's happening? People?

(02:11:02):
Were you weather reports for us? And also would you
put curry powder and a Christmas cake? Bit of everything tonight?
And whatever you got them up for the discussion? Try
it on for anything? What have you got them up
for that chat? It's going to take a lot to
get you out of the bed on this cold night,
So I prepared to take calls of any caliber. It's
a risky thing to say single as you bores whatever. Anyway,

(02:11:25):
if you've got something to say, let's be hearing from you,
and I'll keep smiling through all twelve Mikey Beebans long
from twelve. You've challenged me tonight, people, You've challenged me
to find out what you want to talk about, and
I think I've come up slightly underdone. Oh well, in
this job, you've got to try. There's nowhere to hide

(02:11:46):
on talk back. You just got to keep plowing through
the trouble with nights when it's quiet, you don't want
to say daft things to create some sort of response,
and you get yourself in trouble. I was going particularly
close to that when I was saying, what's with the
amount of potato chips people buying their shopping baskets? But
I do notice that I tried to peek at other
people's shop. I think cheapest creepers is that you're shopping.

(02:12:08):
I'm sure peeled it to my trolley as well. But
people eat a lot of potato chips, Like ten years
ago they didn't. Now there's a whole aisle of them,
because what's happened. I'm listening to the reports they reckon
now that people don't have the meals. They reckon the
younger people now just snack. There's about seven meals a day,

(02:12:31):
so what they do is they just go through the
day grazing. I mean, once upon a time it was
three meals, but the meals have now kind of fallen apart. It'
says continual snacking. I think a lot of that assulting
n to get chips and dip and tell what the
other thing that's come from nowhere? All those kind of
small balls of food forgure what they call those rose ats. Marcus,

(02:12:55):
good evening and welcome.

Speaker 2 (02:12:57):
Oh good evening. Thank you very much, Marcus.

school child. You hooked up with a man on in
a tent on a the Napier Topol road, and the
next morning you stole as chaquitah bar. Then you met
him a number of years later, and did you marry

(02:13:34):

Speaker 6 (02:13:38):
Yeah. Wow, it's a good story in it.

Yeah.

Speaker 6 (02:14:02):
And you haven't converted to You haven't converted to it.
You haven't made your own cakes that way.

Speaker 2 (02:14:07):
No, I'm not a cake maker, market not yet.

Speaker 12 (02:14:09):
You could be.

Speaker 6 (02:14:10):
That could be a what if for you? What how
does someone know they're not a cake maker? Because I
reckon I'm one. I've never done it my life, but
I reckon I'll be pretty good at it.

Speaker 2 (02:14:20):
Well, I have made cakes and they're all juned out, okay,
but it's not something I do on a regular base
these days.

Speaker 6 (02:14:27):
Who did you say had major your cake? That had
the the carry?

Speaker 12 (02:14:31):
And who was that my neighbor?

Speaker 6 (02:14:34):
Okay? In which area? I want to know where these
people are?

Speaker 2 (02:14:37):
Okayter cur We used to live in a little place
called the Occur and it's and it's just out of
a little place called Almondville, which is on the coast of.

Speaker 6 (02:14:52):
Well that will for you near Ormondville, that will ever
forever be known as to me as Curry powder cake Town.
Is it a town? Would you say, fit to Koda
is a town? No, it's just a place.

Speaker 2 (02:15:02):
Ah, it's just a tiny place here.

Speaker 6 (02:15:05):
Wow, nice to hear from your rose.

Speaker 17 (02:15:07):
Thank you.

Speaker 6 (02:15:09):
Evening, Jen.

Speaker 25 (02:15:11):
Hi, dear Marcus, I'm shivering, I'm so cold.

Speaker 6 (02:15:15):
Goodness me. Have you got an audi.

Speaker 17 (02:15:19):
An?

Speaker 6 (02:15:24):
Do you know what an audie is? Let me blow
your mind, jan An Audi is a poncho made from
thick almost douvet material that the children wear the it's
got a hot on and no arms and they and

(02:15:44):
they wear that all the time around their house, shopping
around because every it's like wearing a sleeping bag over
your head.

Speaker 25 (02:15:53):
Well, that sounds like fun.

Speaker 6 (02:15:55):
It would be good for you, I think. I think
it's for the younger. And they have some of you
see a lot of people wearing them at Peck and
Save now, But they have like avocados or Star Wars
figures or yodas on them and stuff. They're all the
rain well terrible looking the terrible looking things, but people
can't get enough of them.

Speaker 25 (02:16:15):
Oh there must be warm.

Speaker 23 (02:16:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 25 (02:16:19):
I put my jacket on my wall, Wally Jack jacket.

Speaker 6 (02:16:29):
Okay, you keep going.

Speaker 25 (02:16:32):
I just wanted to warn people if the storm that's
coming has got fun. I hit a near miss with
her bolt of lightning few day and I was open
to the Speck door to let the kitten, who was
stupid lees it said, normally makes about.

Speaker 6 (02:17:03):
I'm kind of missing parts of the story because of
your phone line, but I could put together did you
get struck by lightning?

Speaker 25 (02:17:09):
Bolted in the door? I opened it sucking we and
the ultra flight thing came. It was after him. It
was about an inch away from my legue to r
wow up against me what we call the energy of it.

(02:17:33):
I must have missed me by an inch.

Speaker 6 (02:17:36):
Gave me a he could go for it almost qualified.
You've been struck by light.

Speaker 17 (02:17:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (02:17:42):
No, terrible phone lines jam, but nice to hear from you.
Fifteen past eleven, Chris Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 11 (02:17:48):
Oh great Marca.

Speaker 6 (02:17:49):
What's happening, Chris?

Speaker 11 (02:17:51):
Oh man, I am. I've just got myself all set up.
I'm on Lebanon time right now. I changed my body
clock yesterday. It's about it around midday and Lebanon, and man,
it's exciting times and Lebanon. I'll tell you that it's
all on. You could say, are you really, Chris, Chris?

Speaker 6 (02:18:10):
Are you Lebanese?

Speaker 11 (02:18:13):
My great grandparents used to live in Syria and they
they they traveled around a lot in the whole Middle
East because it is this basically a region that I
wouldn't say borderless, but once or there you sort of
just move around. It's not everything quite close, you know.

Speaker 6 (02:18:26):
Just Chris, I just don't necessarily know that the mood
of you saying you're excited to be on Lebanete. Lebanon.
I mean, it's almost kind of it's it's almost deteriorating
into war there.

Speaker 11 (02:18:37):
It's not like, well, it's I've actually done that's actually
done really well.

Speaker 6 (02:18:42):
It's still like a sport thing to watch. I'm not
quite sure the tenor of what you're saying.

Speaker 11 (02:18:46):
Okay, Well, basically what I'm trying to say is they've
done really well defensively on their border there's the Lebanese
and but I really hope that this Iran and israelpin
doesn't continue, because if it does, what it's going to
happen is is that the Persian Gulf is going to
be put into major disrepute and then the prices are
always going to fly up really high. It's going to

(02:19:07):
cause inflesh and all sorts of stuff that we do
not want. So we wanted the escalation somehow. We do
not want this to go that important.

Speaker 6 (02:19:15):
Chris. I think the price as you follow the price
of oil, yeah, I think it's already spiked today, hasn't it.

Speaker 11 (02:19:22):
Yeah, that's right, it has, but it could go a
lot more. I'm talking. I'm predicting a major, major hike
and the price as this continues, like it looks like
it like it may just froone observer.

Speaker 6 (02:19:36):
So it's up to but it's up to perceived. That's
the other depressing thing too about conflict, that there's you know,
full well to be people out there betting on the
futures market and making money on the price of oil too,
which sounds to me to be fairly nasty to be
profiting out of kind of misery and conflict.

Speaker 11 (02:19:55):
Yeah, so that's going on right now with oil and gold.
So oil and gold is always when one goes up,
the other goes up. So it's got record highs for
gold right now. So one one of gold is twelve
point four kilos and that's sitting around one point seven
million New Zealand dollars. So it's quite it's quite a
very interesting time if you've got a lot of gold

(02:20:15):
bars like some of us too. I don't personally, but
I do know our people that do have gold bars.
They are twelve point four kilos and the rather exceptionally
high world record highs in fact, September twenty twenty four
world record high for gold. So yeah, these things are
going on, and so but what I'm hoping Marcus is.

Speaker 6 (02:20:35):
That I don't want I think the price of I
don't think it is a world record high. The price
of gold, it's.

Speaker 11 (02:20:43):
Pretty up there. In twenty years, the price of gold
has gone up five hundred and sixty nine percent in
twenty years. So I went and looked at the gold
train and Michael Hill drawler in two thousand and four
in Danedan when I was at university, and it was
two thousand, five hundred dollars. I went and looked at
the similar similar train at Manowa Bay which I call
Mangory Bay, and it was around fifteen thousand dollars. But

(02:21:05):
the price of gold is really I observed, really you
could say, hang.

Speaker 6 (02:21:12):
On, hang on, I don't think you can actually use
the price of Michael Hill gold has been has been
an authentic I'm just trying to look at the price
of gold now in the last twenty years.

Speaker 11 (02:21:29):
Gone up about five hundred sixty.

Speaker 6 (02:21:33):
How much did you say? It's gone up since twenty twenty,
since two thousand and four, in.

Speaker 11 (02:21:39):
Twenty years, it's gone up five hundred and sixty nine percent.
The price of a keyloor of gold. That's what's gold,
you know, Yeah, it's exceptional. It's an exceptional industry to
be in the gold industry. And so then.

Speaker 6 (02:21:57):
Hang on, what about bitcoin? What's that doing today?

Speaker 11 (02:22:01):
Bitcoin's really good. Whenever there's a conference, bitcoin goes up
as well. So it's around one hundred thousand dollars. He's
hilling doors, right.

Speaker 6 (02:22:08):
I'll check on that quest. Thank you. Nineteen past eleven
eight and eighty eighteen eighty hitdle twelve to the text.
Still looking for the weather drama if you've got me.
Marcus loved my audience Purple with sausages, sausage dogs on it.
It's so warm chairs, Karen, I like Jane's laugh. You
gone from wolf to crab. Good on you, Marcus. Just
gonna be playing snacks crackers over teddy chips anytime, Noel,

(02:22:31):
I buy chips for my grandchildren to snack on. They
like them when they fill them up. They aren't full
of sugar. But even though they're deep fried, still better
than most snacks are they So will we consider how
many potato chips people eat? That would be my take
on it. You've got to use those with anyway. I
don't want to get into food policing. Marcus. An episode

(02:22:52):
of the Simpsons had the toilet door a seafood restaurant
labeled buoiez and golds. I think that's quite common. People
love a funny sign on the men's and women's toilets.
Marcus north Shore Auckland raining cats and dogs. However, hailing
taxis are worse like that fun Marcus have become addicted

(02:23:16):
to vacant Haven YouTube channel Urban explorers who suspiciously always
find it way in dry and seventeen degrees in upper hut.

mean about that? What it is urban explorers who suspiciously
always find a way, and what is that job show?

Tell you what's something about the Dalli Ms. I do
kind of think that the what I will say about
the daly Ms, And I watch a lot of rugby league,

(02:24:26):
and obviously you can compare it to rugby because obviously
rugby's our major game, and I think kind of ossie
rules league is the certainly in New South Wales and
Queensland and certainly probably in New Zealand by proxy the
premier sport over there. But the daim Awards are good,
and they'll tell you what the sport has done a remarkably,

(02:24:52):
has made remarkable progress and incorporating the women's match into
their code, and certainly so far what I've seen on
them before, the women's players are getting the majority of
the certainly a lot of the coverage. I wouldn't say
that you'd see that in the Rugby Awards in New Zealand.

(02:25:14):
Fun times with the sharky New Zealand.

Speaker 17 (02:25:17):
There we go.

call on Timu or on bitcoin. Never know what to
make of that. Is it a good thing or a

(02:25:39):
bad thing? People stop talking about Temu don't even know
the answer to that question. Suspect they might be a
bad thing. I am Timu free still never shopped there.
If you've got any weather reports, Talklan just currently getting

Speaker 14 (02:27:43):
Hey but hey, look I was just hearing you're talking

a while. Yeah, right, I had an incident just a
few hours a week ago. I get a week bit
of stuff off TEMU, just just junkie stuff, you know, yea.
And they get you know once, once you get onto them,
they they they attack you with email some Texas and

(02:28:08):
and I got an email son, I have one hundred
money back on three items. And so I went in
there thinking not well, this is all right, you know,
and they said what it is is they show you
what items If you were allowed to pick. So I

(02:28:30):
picked my three items, pushed go, and then after I'd finished,
I went into my bank account and yes, they had
charged me. So Mugan's here, mate, Mugan's here.

Speaker 6 (02:28:47):
Yeah, do that? What were the items wherever they arrived in?

Speaker 22 (02:28:51):
No, not yet.

Speaker 14 (02:28:52):
But what I sometimes do is I've got a girlfriend
in the Philippines and I changed the address and I
buy stuff for her and send to her, and it
takes ten days. It takes me two weeks now. But
the three items that I wanted I wanted for me,
and yeah, nah, yeah, you know, I wouldn't have bought

(02:29:16):
them as as they weren't going to be free.

Speaker 11 (02:29:20):
What was it?

Speaker 14 (02:29:20):
What was the value of them at sixty two dollars?

Speaker 4 (02:29:24):

Oh?

Speaker 6 (02:29:26):
Well, okay, Well, good lucks, Joe, and thanks for the call.
Charles and Marcus. Are I welcome?

Speaker 13 (02:29:32):
Oh hi, Marcus, having a good evening.

Speaker 6 (02:29:34):
You're not bad? Thanks yourself.

Speaker 13 (02:29:36):
Yeah, I've got I'm having a good Oh you're good.
Been a long day. But your topics caught me tonight
and I sort of thought the Cheddams one caught me
when I first Yeah, yeah, I love the Chettams and
been over there and they do need a fairy And

(02:29:59):
I've been following that one and they've had warf upgrades
and various things over the years. But I'm so sorry.
If the people in charge have canceled the faery for
the mainland, then I don't see a great reason for
getting the fury for the Chandams. It's how you can

(02:30:19):
justify it.

Speaker 6 (02:30:20):
Yeah, I can understand what you're saying. I can understand
what you're staying there. I think we're saying, got bigger
fish to fry with you. But I mean, yeah, it's
an incredibly remote part of the country and it is
part of They must feel really isolated there.

Speaker 13 (02:30:35):
It is isolating out there, especially if the fairy you
know that it's not been supplied. You know, it'd be
a horrible feeling over their own.

Speaker 6 (02:30:44):
Imagine were were you fishing out there?

Speaker 13 (02:30:48):
No, I was doing government stuff mostly, or a bit
of farming, and but otherwise it's government coming and going.
I put my one of my boys in the school
for a little bit, and yeah, the big pressures on
for fuel and power generation, and it's it is out
on the edge there. Especially the old ZB call it

(02:31:11):
used to call from the Stone cottage out.

Speaker 6 (02:31:13):
On the other side of the Helen.

Speaker 13 (02:31:14):
Yeah, yeah, I popped in for a cup of tea there. Yeah,
she's on the mainland now, though I believe.

Speaker 6 (02:31:22):
It's a beautiful looking structure that that she lived and
that looked like it was made from It wasn't scory,
but look it's it's not volcanic because it looked like scory.
It was amazing.

Speaker 13 (02:31:33):
I think it is volcanic. It was right off the
quite steep mountain right beside it. I think it what
was a volcanic structure of some call it's.

Speaker 6 (02:31:41):
Not so beautiful looking building, it's I couldn't believe how
gorgeous it was.

Speaker 13 (02:31:45):
Great job that I've sort of seen it before it
was renovated, and then when she was living there it
was renovated and great history and just she was an
attraction keeping the place there. So I'm hoping that it's
still going. It's yeah, that someone's there and looking after
the place on the other side of the eye. And

(02:32:06):
these other remains of a similar story that are just
ruins into the ground and your pots and the like
there and that's fascinating as well. But it's great to
have your restore right. It was the little lofty area
that she had in there, going with the little dolls
when you went upstairs, have us quite funny or frightening
for little kids. I put my boil me one time,

(02:32:27):
but that's another time.

Speaker 11 (02:32:29):
So the chattems.

Speaker 13 (02:32:29):
Yeah, I totally agree it's necessary they needed over there,
but we also need a fear here at the main letter.

Speaker 6 (02:32:36):
Or at least a planned Yeah, and that's the thing.

Speaker 4 (02:32:38):
They're done plan there.

Speaker 6 (02:32:40):
Thirty million was put aside in twenty twenty two, and
then now they're saying they're not going to restore that ship,
and I think there's a shortage of ships that will
be you know, it's the whole what's wrong with this
country now? Is it just no forward planning? We had
ford planning with those fairies, and they mean now, well
we had we had the ford planning with the fairies,
the Internas, we had the deal done and they went

(02:33:00):
over and god knows what damage they've done with the
core Ens by just canceling that contract over a deck.
I think we've done huge damage to our relationship with Korea.

Speaker 13 (02:33:09):
But yeah, that's embarrassing.

Speaker 6 (02:33:12):
Not only yeah, I think it is, But anyway, do
you want to talk about the price of gold too?

Speaker 13 (02:33:17):
The gold Yeah just quickly.

Speaker 11 (02:33:18):
Yeh know.

Speaker 13 (02:33:19):
That guy that called it was an exciting to listen
to him, but he's right. It's just gone through the
roof gold, you know, and his talk of it. Some
people saying it'll get to the five thousand US troounds,
but it's sitting at the spot price of nearly three
thousand dollars and that's a lot. And that's changed from
two thousand dollars, you know, in less than a year.

Speaker 6 (02:33:41):
So is it the classic case? Once gold goes up
and priced in, people extract a lot more of it
because they can. Then it comes down on price because
it's an oversupply.

Speaker 13 (02:33:53):
That's more to do with diamonds, I feel. But you know,
it's hard to tell with all of these sorts of things.
But I've got to back him up on that gold one.
I yeah, and that boy boy or I sort of
like to say the New Zealand. Yeah, yeah, I think
it's not, but that's what I've grown up. But this
is like a New Zealand English type thing.

Speaker 6 (02:34:15):
Yeah, I agree. I'll go back to the Charles. Thank you.
Nice to hear from you. I do appreciate it. Twenty
five to twelve Stephen Crichton kept in the year in
the NRL No surprises the one legend twenty three. He's extraordinary.
He looks look stoked with it too. Nevill Marcus welcome, Yeah.

Speaker 19 (02:34:32):
Good Marcus. Listen, we're talking about the weather earlier on. Yeah,
I I for the last three or four days, we've
had a snow on Mount Herbert.

Speaker 17 (02:34:44):
Wow.

Speaker 6 (02:34:45):
And that's on that's on Banks Peninsula.

Speaker 4 (02:34:48):
Yeah it is.

Speaker 19 (02:34:49):
Yeah, Yeah, you can see it. I can see it
from from my home and I live in Roliston, but
you can see it there every day you see snow
up here.

Speaker 6 (02:34:59):
How often is snow on Mount Herbert?

Speaker 13 (02:35:02):
Oh?

Speaker 19 (02:35:02):
Quite a bit during the winter months.

Speaker 16 (02:35:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 19 (02:35:04):
Well, like I lived in Governor's b for years and
years and years, and yeah, we used to get a
lot of snow up and down here that but none
round government's pay at all.

Speaker 6 (02:35:14):
What would be the do you know what the elevation
of Mount Herbert is? Yeah, I should do, but I
would it be like it would it be seven hundred
meters on my way? I'm thinking about bluff.

Speaker 19 (02:35:28):
That would be no, No, it's it's higher than that.
It's something like I'll just take a stare at it.
But it would have to be about oh, two thousand
and three hundred or something.

Speaker 6 (02:35:40):
Oh, okay, it's a lot higher that I thought it is.

Speaker 19 (02:35:43):
It is quite hard, quite high about the summit road
goes round here. You can rivee right around.

Speaker 6 (02:35:49):
That nine hundred and nineteen meters.

Speaker 19 (02:35:51):
Nine hundred and nineteen meters.

Speaker 6 (02:35:53):
It's called it a kilometers high. Yeah, what did I say,
I don't know, I don't yeah, I feet that yea
three thousand feet.

Speaker 19 (02:36:03):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, well that's right, because I reckon it
was a bit two and a half.

Speaker 16 (02:36:06):
Yeah right, yeah.

Speaker 6 (02:36:08):
I actually went up there and the old A long
long time ago, there was a it was a TV competition.
A family had run a midwinter Christmas in the snow, yes,
and we went to christ Church to host it. But
we couldn't go to Mount Hut because the weather, and
they helicoptered us to the top of Mount Herbert. But
there was there was not much snow up there at all.
But we had quite nice picnic. But that's how I

(02:36:28):
kind of can remember that there is snow on it,
because it was sort of the closest snow we get
to out a christ Church. We had a quite a
pleasant day. There'd been about nineteen ninety five, So that
was the last time I was the top of it.

Speaker 19 (02:36:39):
Yeah, good, Yeah, I had a I used to have
a house over at Port Levy.

Speaker 6 (02:36:45):
Oh yeah, well what a great place.

Speaker 19 (02:36:47):
Yeah, it was a really great place here, and I yeah,
I lived at it for a while, but I kept
coming from me coming back to the house from Governor's base.

Speaker 6 (02:36:59):
So, yeah, tell me about port Levy. There wouldn't be
a lot of How else is there.

Speaker 15 (02:37:07):
Is that right now?

Speaker 19 (02:37:09):
That maybe now, I haven't been over there for years,
but when I was over there, there was brastically took ah.
They were all built like they built them. They built
these houses themselves over there. They took timber over there,
one thing another. And in talking about that, I took

(02:37:32):
the first house over the government over to Port Levy
on the back of the truck and through the Littleton Tunnel.
And when I got to the Littleton Tunnel, this was
a not a house, but all all the ingredients to
make to build a house, you know. And when I

(02:37:54):
got to the Littleton tunnel, they stopped me there. And
just as well they did, because I I was too
high to go through the little tunnel. Yeah, and so
they said, of course I had it on blocks of
wood so that when I got to the other end

(02:38:14):
they could get Jack's under it and jacket out and
give us off my truck, you see. And yeah, so
they stopped me there and they said, look me, if
you go back of it from the entrance of the
tunnel and then go forward and Jamie brace on it,
lit'll come back at fall down.

Speaker 11 (02:38:35):
And it did.

Speaker 19 (02:38:35):
True, it collapse just enough to clear the Littleton tunnel.

Speaker 13 (02:38:40):
Yeah wow, yeah.

Speaker 6 (02:38:43):
How long we have put Levy for?

Speaker 12 (02:38:46):
Oh?

Speaker 19 (02:38:47):
Oh hell, I was so they going back with some
forward for or probably at least fifteen twenties. I didn't
live there. I never lived in Port Levy. I just
had a house over there.

Speaker 22 (02:39:01):
Yeah oh yeah.

Speaker 6 (02:39:02):
Have you been to the island in the middle of it?

Speaker 19 (02:39:05):
Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, hell yeah yeah yeah.

Been at the heaps Ands but it wasn't called there's
what's the proper name for it?

Speaker 17 (02:39:22):
Not mary name.

Speaker 6 (02:39:25):
That's the only thing I've got, Okay, So that's all right. Yeah,
I can't I can't work out what the other name
for it is. I'll ever look me every one seven
find out for it nineteen to twelve. So I've been
waiting for this series a new weather reports from reading
this from the stuff website. Severe thunderstorm watch for Northland,

(02:39:49):
Auckland and Great Barrier Island. This is from nine minutes ago.
Met Service as a student updated Severe thunderstorm watch for Northland, Auckland,
Great Barrier Island from ten pm Wednesday, which is now
and forty three again until five am too Morrow morning.
Localized downpours of twenty five to forty millimeters are possible,

(02:40:14):
which means surface and slash or flash flooding is on
the cards. Wind gusts of eighty to one hundred k's
are even stronger are also forecast, which could lead to
down trees or power lines. By one am, the risks
should have passed. In Northland. Met Service advisors going to

(02:40:35):
be on the lookout for threatening weather conditions and to
be watched for possible severe thunderstorm warnings. Don't know about you,
but thunder doesn't concern me asst way do. I want
to get struck by lightning, but it's more than flooding.
I don't like, so that's just come through. So it
seems as though Auckland is currently getting really hammered. If
you've got more information about that, bring it on. I'm

(02:41:04):
not great at reading the met websites, but witt and
windy spell for the next two days, a large weather
system moves over the country. So we've got some information
about that. Get that to me. My name is Marcus.
Welcome eight hundred and eighty ten eighty Marcus. Power cut

(02:41:32):
on the outskirts of Pookakuhi from Titihi, Kinsey, wil Park Counties,
Monaco had to go to the battery radio thanks for it.
So there is a power cut, Marcus, call me stupid,
But your last caller say, what's the proper name for it?

(02:41:54):
Not the MOLDI name wow. Yes, And because he was elderly,
I didn't the courtesy to go and look. And I
can't find any other name for the island, so maybe
he was confused at what the island was. I'll give
the benefit of the doubt, but yeah, I think you
move on quite quickly from comments like that. Anyway, Marcus.
One thing that has happened with Temu is you can

(02:42:15):
no longer check anything out unless the total is over
thirty five dollars. They're cashing it today. Craig Bellamy is
the NERL Coach of the Year. No surprise is there.

Let me have a bit of a lock sea people.
But you're Aucklands in the middle of getting fairly fairly

(02:44:07):

power cuts outskirts of Poka corhe to Tihi, sorry Tahihi,
King seat Wylpa, So there are power cuts there. Marcus,

(02:44:35):
I worked with a chef in the sixties. He gave
me acip for Christmas cake and a hint to put
one teaspoon of curry powder in my cake. It helps
to keep it longer. I have made it for years.
It turns out great every time, no taste of curry.
It ll love your show. Cheers, Carol. You know that's
my takeout for tonight. Carry powder and the Christmas cake

Mikey's Along from twelve nine from twelve, Mikey along from midnight.

I think the Player of the Year, the Delian winner

of the Year. I don't know who the nominations for
that are. Yeah, Chris, it's Marcus. Welcome, good evening. Hih Chris.

Speaker 22 (02:45:19):
Oh you know, mate, I mean in a mouthful of toast.

Speaker 6 (02:45:25):
You love some toast.

Speaker 22 (02:45:27):
Oh yeah, yeah.

Speaker 15 (02:45:28):
Hey, look.

Speaker 22 (02:45:30):
Look I'm not sure if it's stilling the shed, but
what this guy said was that kind of made sense
to me, and I just wanted to put it in
front of you and your listeners and so you can
get some feedback on it. At four hundred was almost
four thousand dollars in New Zealand announced. Gold's quite quite
a you know, viable option for paying for this hospital

(02:45:54):
in Duneda. And apparently there's no money in the coppers, Okay,
so can we sell that gold without extracting it? And
it's the same We sit on an ocean of coal. Now,
some think a little bit about that because I worked
for Solid Energy for a few years down there on
the Wist coast, but the some of the cold, we've

(02:46:16):
got a just astonishingly good quality. Okay, I'm not saying
extract it, but sell it as a you know, while
it's in the ground. This guy who said this, he
said it a smoker yesterday, and I I just thought,
astonishing idea.

Speaker 6 (02:46:34):
It's a good smoker. You're running with those sorts of discussions.

Speaker 22 (02:46:40):
Yeah, yeah, anyway, this this is you know, he's saying
a young fellow. But I just thought, bloody hell, it's
it's it's amazing, you know, Like I was. I was
listening to this guy at this outfit down then seeth on.
What you might know more about this than me is
the he's about to go down there and to extract
gold out of a valley.

Speaker 6 (02:47:00):
Oh yeah, I might know, but about that that might
be on the clue. There, I see it. They've got
permission to go in there. Somewhere at Miller's flat. I
think they're going in.

Speaker 22 (02:47:09):
Well, the land owner it's a gully that's off the clue.
I think that's you know, but anyway, they've obviously done
a test, and that's you know, and ascertainment. It's worth
while going in there. Well, why do we have to
pull it out of the ground. Why can't we just say, okay,
we'll sell shares in this gold mine, but you're not

(02:47:31):
allowed to take it out of the ground.

Speaker 4 (02:47:32):
Now.

Speaker 22 (02:47:33):
I know we're not going to get a lot for
it that way. However, by how I'm thinking about it
is we're not going to give bloody four thousand dollars
an ounce for it anyway, because we've got to pay
for diesel. We've got people wages and da da da
da da.

Speaker 8 (02:47:49):
I don't know.

Speaker 22 (02:47:50):
I don't know, mate. I'm just thinking we're a very
wealthy country and Dunedin needs a hospital and to my way,
we were training out.

Speaker 6 (02:48:01):
I don't know if we are. I don't know if
we are a wealthy country. We're a low wage economy.
There's just given landlords a three billion dollar discounts. Okay,
we seem just to be a we seem just to
be a housing market. That seems to be what we
are with people.

Speaker 22 (02:48:20):
Yeah, there's a rabbit hole that I that I've never
plumbed the depthel But but the thing is is, okay,
maybe I'm not saying right we're an asset wealthy country.
You know, we've we've got an ocean of I worked
on a coal mine that had a nine meter band
of coal, and the coal's still there. You know, there's
a lot of gold in the hills on the west cast.

(02:48:41):
They it's just because the old timers couldn't get the
water high enough to get it. There's gold on our
sea bed. There's you know this this. We've got a
lot of as sets in this country that is locked up.

Speaker 6 (02:48:54):
So okay, well let's keep it locked up, but sell
the future, sell the rights, sell the rights to it.

Speaker 22 (02:49:00):
Well, not necessarily the rights. I mean, you own the gold,
but the gold just isn't allowed to be taken out
of the are you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 17 (02:49:09):
I don't know.

Speaker 22 (02:49:09):
I don't know. I've been sure to hear what your
listener's got to say about it, because you know, rooms, Yeah,
they're not inherited for too long these days. Back to
the grind. Hey, look all the very best and.

Speaker 6 (02:49:24):
Love you to hear from the christ. I enjoyed that immensely.
Thank you always love but a wisdom from Smogos where
the best ideas come from. Nice to hear from you, legend.
Almost time for me to go. People return tomorrow obviously
thanks to all those people that part took tonight. Keep
dry and warm. Just so you know, there are power

(02:49:47):
cuts in Auckland. I forgot that that would be a
thing where that certainly seems to be a situation. If
anyone's got any more information, ticks that through. Mike will
be up for that too. Of this more information also
throughout the course of the evening. Jack Bostik Rookie of
the Year. So I think he's with the Rabbits, is
he No? I think he's with the Tigers. I actually

(02:50:08):
don't know. I thought I saw him. I might have
checked that one out. Sorry Dolphins Center. But no word
on the Delian that's going to happen later on tonight.
But yeah, tough weather down south, tough weather in Auckland
also too. There are flood warnings and wind warnings in
Auckland till about five o'clock in the morning, so yeah,

(02:50:30):
and there are power cuts also, and more power cuts
are expected so the radio Mike will be across all
of that throughout the morning too, So there's information often
what's quite handy if you can text if there's a
power cut, and he can find out when he's expected
to come back on. It's always quite reassuring to know
that people are aware of it and doing their damnes.
Still though, of course you don't necessarily want the lines

(02:50:52):
when out in those conditions, do you. I'll be back
on Thursday. That's tomorrow. I'm just trying to think of
the rest of the news that's happened in the last
three hours fifty three minutes. There's not a lot I
can think of. Oh, by the way, probably the big
news is Sport New Zealand lost the Jamison Trophy two

(02:51:13):
in a row to England, quite a narrow defeat, and
delightfully the Tasman Marco they defended the Shield against Auckland,
won quite convincingly at Trafalgar Park and now they go
on and play play Taranaki, hopefully to retain the shield.

(02:51:36):
I'm excited they've got I hope they keep it for
the summer. It's exciting to me. I'll return tomorrow night. People.
Enjoy your Thursday good night.
