- 0:00Speaker 1: Gentleman, Welcome the Late Place. Just don't ask James mcpherston
- 0:08Speaker 1: if he knows what the song was.
- 0:09Speaker 2: We have established last week his musical knowledge does not
- 0:12Speaker 2: exirero beyond Billy, Joel and Elton.
- 0:15Speaker 1: John, Welcome to the program.
- 0:16Speaker 2: I'm Caleb Bond, joined tonight by Joe Hildebrand and Danika
- 0:20Speaker 2: di Georgio Deanika. You went back to Perth for the weekend,
- 0:23Speaker 2: so your family for each I did.
- 0:25Speaker 3: I had a fleeting visit, so it's actually a five
- 0:27Speaker 3: hour flight there. It's almost like it's a different country.
- 0:29Speaker 3: And it was a three hour time difference up until Sunday,
- 0:31Speaker 3: so it's like you're going you're going to back in
- 0:34Speaker 3: time almost. But I had a lovely weekend, forty five
- 0:36Speaker 3: hours only in the wild West. Twenty eight degrees chef's kiss,
- 0:39Speaker 3: perfect beautiful.
- 0:40Speaker 2: It wasn't twenty eight degrees like that up in Sydney.
- 0:43Speaker 4: It certainly was not, Caleb.
- 0:45Speaker 5: But I've got to say I admire that like going
- 0:47Speaker 5: to Perth for less than two days.
- 0:51Speaker 4: Like that is that is, that is commitment.
- 0:53Speaker 6: It takes a lot of stamina, John, when it's.
- 0:55Speaker 4: Like traveling back in time with Perth.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Literally well, you know what stamina and did it of
- 1:00Speaker 2: what we expect on the late debate and that's why
- 1:02Speaker 2: we have Danika.
- 1:03Speaker 1: He's what's coming up tonight.
- 1:05Speaker 2: Rapper and music producer Kanye West has been in trouble
- 1:07Speaker 2: in the past few years for anti Semitic social media
- 1:10Speaker 2: posts in a song called harl Hitler.
- 1:12Speaker 1: But he's been booked for a music festival in London.
- 1:15Speaker 2: British Prime Ministers to Keir Starmer says it's a disgrace.
- 1:18Speaker 1: Joe Hildebrand says, lay off him or on that soon.
- 1:21Speaker 2: On the front pages plenty more on the fuel crisis.
- 1:25Speaker 2: Could rationing be on the way? And where has fuel
- 1:28Speaker 2: hit five dollars a later? And what happens when the
- 1:31Speaker 2: kids decide that they do it would look after their
- 1:33Speaker 2: elderly parents. An Indian state is now docking people's pay
- 1:37Speaker 2: and giving it to the parents if they're found to
- 1:40Speaker 2: be neglecting them. But first, an awful story I have
- 1:43Speaker 2: to tell you on the theme of Easter out of
- 1:46Speaker 2: the UK justice for this bloke, Walker Smith. That's going
- 1:51Speaker 2: to be my job tonight because Walker Smith had worked
- 1:54Speaker 2: at Waitrose, which is a supermarket chain in the UK
- 1:58Speaker 2: for seventeen years, and he saw recently a bloke tried
- 2:03Speaker 2: to abscone from the shop with a bunch of lint
- 2:08Speaker 2: Easter eggs. He was trying to steal them, and so
- 2:10Speaker 2: mister Smith, who has had enough of seeing people try
- 2:14Speaker 2: to steal stuff from the shop he's worked in for
- 2:17Speaker 2: seventeen years, decided to take matters into his own hands
- 2:21Speaker 2: and he chased the chap down.
- 2:23Speaker 1: He had a little scuffle with him.
- 2:25Speaker 2: He tried to get the bag of lint gold Bunny
- 2:28Speaker 2: Easter eggs back. In the process, the bag ripped open
- 2:32Speaker 2: and some of the eggs fell out. He then apparently
- 2:35Speaker 2: picked up some of the broken chocolate and threw it
- 2:38Speaker 2: at a shopping trolley, right.
- 2:40Speaker 1: I mean, who key is?
- 2:41Speaker 2: He's tried to do what he can to save the
- 2:44Speaker 2: profits of the company he works for.
- 2:46Speaker 1: But for doing so, Waitro sacked him.
- 2:49Speaker 2: Yes, they called him in and told him his services
- 2:53Speaker 2: were no longer required. Mister Smith said, I've been here
- 2:56Speaker 2: seventeen years. I've seen it happen every hour of every
- 3:00Speaker 2: day for the last five years. Shoplifting He's talking about.
- 3:04Speaker 2: It's everybody from drug addicts to teenagers nicking bits and
- 3:07Speaker 2: bobs walking out with bottles of wine in their arms.
- 3:10Speaker 2: We're not allowed to do anything. I just got frustrated
- 3:13Speaker 2: seeing this day in and day out, and not seeing
- 3:16Speaker 2: waitros do much about it. They led me out the
- 3:18Speaker 2: back door by the bins. I just felt demoralized. This
- 3:22Speaker 2: was in their Clapham Junction store in South London. And
- 3:26Speaker 2: to make it even worse, mister Smith had only very
- 3:29Speaker 2: recently moved into his own flat after sharing a place
- 3:33Speaker 2: with Flatbates for twenty five years. He is at Easter
- 3:37Speaker 2: time trying to do the right thing by his employer,
- 3:42Speaker 2: an employer he's been with for nearly two decades, one
- 3:45Speaker 2: that he says feels like his family, and for trying
- 3:48Speaker 2: to do the right thing, he gets sacked. I mean,
- 3:52Speaker 2: this is not in the Christian spirit.
- 3:53Speaker 6: Is it.
- 3:54Speaker 3: No, of course it's not in the Christian spirit. But
- 3:56Speaker 3: also what message does it send to shoplifters?
- 3:58Speaker 6: You know, come come in, come in.
- 4:00Speaker 3: It's a free for all, no worries. So basically what's
- 4:02Speaker 3: happened here is from what I understand. So, the bag
- 4:05Speaker 3: of Easter eggs or the bunnies have split on the floor.
- 4:09Speaker 3: He has then picked one up and he has proceeded
- 4:11Speaker 3: to throw it out of frustration. He didn't throw it
- 4:13Speaker 3: at the person at the shoplifter, he didn't throw it
- 4:16Speaker 3: at anyone. But it's the fact that he actually threw
- 4:18Speaker 3: one in general that is why he was fired. I
- 4:21Speaker 3: can see why this guy got frustrated. Shoplifting is a
- 4:25Speaker 3: massive problem. As he said in the last couple of weeks,
- 4:27Speaker 3: this is happening in Clapham in London.
- 4:29Speaker 6: There have actually been riots.
- 4:31Speaker 3: I'm talking big mobs of youths going ransacking streets. You've
- 4:36Speaker 3: got people having to barricade themselves inside of shops right now.
- 4:40Speaker 3: No wonder the guy snapped. I don't blame him for
- 4:43Speaker 3: being so frustrated. Honestly, seventeen years of service and this
- 4:48Speaker 3: is what they give him.
- 4:48Speaker 6: They should have given him a.
- 4:49Speaker 3: Bonus and thanked him for his service for seventeen years,
- 4:52Speaker 3: not fired the poor buggering.
- 4:53Speaker 5: There was so much going on with this story that
- 4:56Speaker 5: is just sort of simmering beneath the surface. Now, when
- 4:59Speaker 5: I lived in London, when I work for the Press
- 5:00Speaker 5: Association in the UK, I actually lived in Clapham Junction,
- 5:04Speaker 5: so it's slightly living to Clapham and it's got an
- 5:07Speaker 5: oldly schoolly rail service instead of the Metro, which I
- 5:11Speaker 5: used to jump on every morning. I've got to say, obviously,
- 5:14Speaker 5: since I've left, the place has really gone to the dogs.
- 5:17Speaker 5: So you know, I do better Clapham Junction. But I
- 5:20Speaker 5: suspect this guy is a bit of a kind of
- 5:23Speaker 5: dirty Harry bit of an equalizer type who has had
- 5:27Speaker 5: run ins with these kinds of dodgy type, sort of
- 5:30Speaker 5: Harry Brown kind of guy. I like to picture him
- 5:33Speaker 5: as who has gone after these guys before because apparently
- 5:37Speaker 5: previously been told to not confront shoplifters. But how stupid
- 5:43Speaker 5: do you have to be to actually let this policy,
- 5:46Speaker 5: like Danisa said, actually let this policy come out. So, hey, guys,
- 5:50Speaker 5: we've got a policy. Our staff have been instructed never
- 5:53Speaker 5: to approach shoplifters, not to get in their way, So
- 5:56Speaker 5: just come on down, Bob Jungle.
- 5:58Speaker 4: So they're going to have to change that very very quickly.
- 6:01Speaker 4: But the best part is how good is this? Right?
- 6:04Speaker 4: This is the way Troch spoke to me.
- 6:06Speaker 5: He says, we've had incidents where our partners. I always
- 6:09Speaker 5: hate it how employers call employees.
- 6:12Speaker 4: There are partners. Really, if they are partners, why are they?
- 6:14Speaker 5: Why aren't they earning as much money.
- 6:17Speaker 4: They're all partners.
- 6:19Speaker 5: Anyway, We've had incidents where our partners have been hospitalized
- 6:24Speaker 5: when challenging shop linders. Luckily they've always recovered, but that
- 6:28Speaker 5: might not always been the case. So they are now
- 6:31Speaker 5: trying to say that they sacked him for his We
- 6:37Speaker 5: have to protect you by sacking relliant thing.
- 6:42Speaker 3: You know, they'll end up being some sort of go
- 6:43Speaker 3: fundme page. I would say for this bloke, especially because
- 6:47Speaker 3: he has only just moved out into his own flat,
- 6:49Speaker 3: and good on him. You know, I think that's such
- 6:51Speaker 3: an achievement because I can't imagine that London would be
- 6:53Speaker 3: cheap to live, leaving.
- 6:54Speaker 4: Home at fifty four.
- 6:55Speaker 1: You know.
- 6:58Speaker 2: His best shot to what I would do if I
- 7:01Speaker 2: were the police commissioner, you know, met police in London.
- 7:05Speaker 1: I'd be getting this bloker job.
- 7:07Speaker 2: Stat It would be great, pr wouldn't it for the
- 7:10Speaker 2: police to say, here's a man who wants to do
- 7:13Speaker 2: something about shoplifting, we'll get him on board.
- 7:15Speaker 1: I suppose.
- 7:15Speaker 2: The only problem is though, that various police forces in
- 7:18Speaker 2: the UK have given up on shoplifting stories on this
- 7:21Speaker 2: program before, and the shop owners have called out and
- 7:26Speaker 2: tried to have something down about shoplifting and the and
- 7:29Speaker 2: there was one shop where they put a sign in
- 7:31Speaker 2: the window saying, you know, shoplifter is not welcome here
- 7:35Speaker 2: or something.
- 7:36Speaker 1: And then the police came round and told them.
- 7:38Speaker 3: To make it's woke DEI policies. It's the political correct
- 7:46Speaker 3: that's actually killing the world right now. Look, this guy
- 7:50Speaker 3: actually should deserve the medal for what he did, because
- 7:52Speaker 3: what happens if that shoplifter was armed for goodness sake,
- 7:55Speaker 3: you know, look good on him. I think it's fantastic.
- 7:58Speaker 3: Let's return home now because South Australia has just held
- 8:01Speaker 3: its Voice to Parliament elections.
- 8:03Speaker 6: Yes you heard that correctly, Voice to Parliament.
- 8:06Speaker 3: You know, the same voice to Parliament that sixty percent
- 8:08Speaker 3: of us said no to a couple of years back
- 8:10Speaker 3: when we didn't want to be divided by the color
- 8:12Speaker 3: of our skin. Well, this is the second South Australian
- 8:15Speaker 3: Voice to Parliament election.
- 8:16Speaker 6: Now let me take you through the stats.
- 8:18Speaker 3: When it first happened in twenty twenty four, ten percent
- 8:21Speaker 3: of Aboriginals voted and back then the South Australian Labor
- 8:23Speaker 3: government said it was a great turnout. Gee, I don't
- 8:25Speaker 3: know what they're on about ten percent well, the improvement
- 8:29Speaker 3: slightly better, just over ten percent at this year's Oh
- 8:34Speaker 3: congratulations the South Australia. A phenomenal turnout, well done, fantastic,
- 8:39Speaker 3: But have a listen to this. Two delegates were elected
- 8:43Speaker 3: with just fifteen primary votes, which you believed fifteen primary votes.
- 8:48Speaker 3: But here's the real kicker. Six female delegates were elected
- 8:52Speaker 3: without needing any votes at all. Why just to satisfy
- 8:57Speaker 3: gender requirements.
- 8:59Speaker 6: Yes, that correct.
- 9:00Speaker 3: DEI policies at work once again. Kaiam Mayer is the
- 9:06Speaker 3: South Australian Attorney General and Deputy Premier. When asked about
- 9:10Speaker 3: the bizarre turnout, this is what he said.
- 9:13Speaker 6: We know there are some challenges.
- 9:15Speaker 3: It's a voluntary vote, and we know that there are
- 9:18Speaker 3: also a lot of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people
- 9:20Speaker 3: who don't vote at the same rate as the broader population.
- 9:24Speaker 3: Having the Voice election on the same time as the
- 9:26Speaker 3: state election might have meant the Voice wasn't front and
- 9:29Speaker 3: center in the minds of voters.
- 9:31Speaker 1: Hello.
- 9:32Speaker 3: I've also had a fair bit of feedback about the
- 9:34Speaker 3: problems at polling booths, with obstacles and delays also being
- 9:38Speaker 3: a factor, and now the subject of the Independent inquiry.
- 9:41Speaker 3: This kiam is absolutely kidding himself. You know, you want
- 9:46Speaker 3: to know why the voice vote isn't front and center.
- 9:49Speaker 3: It's actually the answers right there in front of you,
- 9:51Speaker 3: because we all went to the polls a few years
- 9:53Speaker 3: ago and we said no. My concern with this is
- 9:56Speaker 3: that this absolutely evades democracy altogether. When you've got Dell,
- 10:00Speaker 3: it gets just being put there because they're women, for
- 10:02Speaker 3: goodness sake, and you've only got two delicate delegates elected,
- 10:06Speaker 3: and suddenly that they end up. What sort of a
- 10:08Speaker 3: precedent does this set for other governments that are going
- 10:10Speaker 3: down this ridiculous.
- 10:11Speaker 6: Voice or even treaty pathway.
- 10:14Speaker 3: I don't think that these governments actually understand what's at
- 10:17Speaker 3: stake here, and I think it's more about politicians satisfying
- 10:20Speaker 3: other politicians who feel better about themselves.
- 10:23Speaker 6: It's based on vibes.
- 10:24Speaker 3: It's based on what we feel like we're doing the
- 10:27Speaker 3: right thing, when actually you're separating people by the color
- 10:30Speaker 3: of their skin. And I don't know how they can
- 10:32Speaker 3: think ten percents terrific.
- 10:33Speaker 4: Yeah, it's certainly not.
- 10:35Speaker 5: And again I was a supporter of the Voice to Parliament,
- 10:38Speaker 5: but again when I saw how it became just another
- 10:41Speaker 5: sort of I suppose plaything of cultural elites and the
- 10:45Speaker 5: same old boring lefties who have failed indigenous communities for decades. Now,
- 10:52Speaker 5: I just it was like watching a car crash in
- 10:54Speaker 5: slow motion. I found it very strange that the government
- 10:59Speaker 5: of Petermelonus would be implementing something like this is usually
- 11:04Speaker 5: just runs a million miles, won't touch anything.
- 11:06Speaker 4: Work with a barge pole.
- 11:07Speaker 5: I suspect, given that it is deputy from Left the
- 11:11Speaker 5: party who's been sent out to defend it, that this
- 11:14Speaker 5: is something that is sort of a soop that he's
- 11:16Speaker 5: thrown to the left, who is himself virtual to uh
- 11:19Speaker 5: to to to just sort of keep them sweet. I
- 11:24Speaker 5: can't imagine it's something that he would die in a
- 11:27Speaker 5: ditch over himself.
- 11:28Speaker 4: And again, the whole purpose.
- 11:30Speaker 2: Of it's a pretty big thing to throw to someone
- 11:32Speaker 2: to keep them sweet, will keep the left sweet by.
- 11:35Speaker 4: Some recognizing palace by saying.
- 11:37Speaker 2: Now that a one particular racial group has the right
- 11:42Speaker 2: to oversee and address Parliament on every bill that comes
- 11:46Speaker 2: before it, when that is not given to anyone else.
- 11:49Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's not just I want to give
- 11:51Speaker 2: you something so you will shut you up.
- 11:53Speaker 1: I mean that is racial division.
- 11:54Speaker 5: Well, it's interesting that there also the treaty process in
- 11:57Speaker 5: Victoria does actually give what appears to be a kind
- 12:00Speaker 5: of de facto veto power over legislation, which the Voice
- 12:04Speaker 5: was never supposed to have and never intended to have,
- 12:07Speaker 5: and indeed wouldn't have had. And so so I think
- 12:10Speaker 5: you've got something in Victoria which is even more either
- 12:13Speaker 5: a just tokenistic virtue signaling if it actually doesn't have
- 12:17Speaker 5: any teeth, or b potentially puts the glue in the
- 12:21Speaker 5: gears of the processes of government if it does have teeth,
- 12:23Speaker 5: which is screwed. And then you've got this, which seems
- 12:26Speaker 5: to be just based on the turnout alone, the most
- 12:30Speaker 5: tokenistic attempt at representation.
- 12:33Speaker 1: Because so then what's the point six of them?
- 12:35Speaker 2: If it's entirely tokenistic, then what is the point Why
- 12:38Speaker 2: do we have a voice to Parliament in any form?
- 12:42Speaker 2: If even Aboriginal people don't want.
- 12:44Speaker 4: The original idea?
- 12:45Speaker 5: And this is the problem, right, So, the whole original
- 12:48Speaker 5: idea of it was that this was something that would
- 12:50Speaker 5: cut through red tape and that would basically give indigenous
- 12:55Speaker 5: communities who were not the usual suspects, who were not
- 12:57Speaker 5: the usual talking heads, who weren't on the university campuses
- 13:01Speaker 5: or the same old people you see, you know, in
- 13:05Speaker 5: the city cafes around our major universities, that this would give.
- 13:09Speaker 4: A main line to grassroots.
- 13:12Speaker 5: Indigenous people at the cafe, so they'd be able to say,
- 13:14Speaker 5: this is what's happening in our communities, this is what's working,
- 13:17Speaker 5: and this is what's not working. The problem is that
- 13:20Speaker 5: that process has of course been completely co opted by
- 13:25Speaker 5: those same olders. Though space and I like to didn't
- 13:30Speaker 5: tell it, I realized that the thing.
- 13:32Speaker 3: To improve the lives of Indigenous Australians and this is
- 13:34Speaker 3: the problem. All the money that's been spent going through
- 13:37Speaker 3: this PLAVA process in South Australia, how about it actually
- 13:40Speaker 3: goes in those communities that need it the most, in
- 13:43Speaker 3: regional and rural Aboriginal communities, instead of all this pussy
- 13:46Speaker 3: footing around.
- 13:47Speaker 6: It's just absolutely ridiculous.
- 13:48Speaker 1: I don't know what you're complain about.
- 13:50Speaker 2: This business that some people would elected on fifteen bootes.
- 13:52Speaker 1: I mean, that's extraordinary stuff.
- 13:55Speaker 2: So I must have been eight years ago, about eight
- 13:58Speaker 2: years ago council elections in South Australia. I was at
- 14:02Speaker 2: the Advertiser at the time and I went through all
- 14:05Speaker 2: the results for all the sixty seven odd councilors or
- 14:08Speaker 2: whatever there are in essay, and I worked out I
- 14:10Speaker 2: found all the councilors who were elected on fewer than
- 14:13Speaker 2: one hundred votes, and I wrote the story, you know,
- 14:16Speaker 2: these are the councilors who were elected on the fewest votes,
- 14:20Speaker 2: and I called up the guy who had the lowest
- 14:23Speaker 2: support in the state but got elected. And there were
- 14:27Speaker 2: obviously people who got elected unopposed because no one else
- 14:30Speaker 2: ran against them. But there was a guy who was
- 14:32Speaker 2: elected to a rural councilor in South Australia on seven votes,
- 14:36Speaker 2: so I mean fifteen.
- 14:38Speaker 6: The the the bar is pretty low.
- 14:41Speaker 3: Though in South Australia they probably said that that was
- 14:44Speaker 3: a success as well, so that's.
- 14:46Speaker 1: Had a veritable success.
- 14:49Speaker 5: Well, how about a voting quota of one kayla, because
- 14:51Speaker 5: that's to ruin a marriage, and that is what experts
- 14:56Speaker 5: are predicting is going to happen with the huge uptake
- 15:01Speaker 5: in a zempick. Now, I have a very personal stake
- 15:03Speaker 5: in this issue, so I'm paying close attention to look careful. Basically,
- 15:07Speaker 5: someone's gone in and dug into a bit of research
- 15:10Speaker 5: and found that gastric band patients were fifty percent more
- 15:13Speaker 5: likely to get divorced within six six years. Right, So
- 15:17Speaker 5: when you have a bit of a tummy, when they
- 15:19Speaker 5: tie up your tummy and stop you from eating. Now,
- 15:23Speaker 5: Professor Paran Stevenson it's weird Nordic name says that very
- 15:27Speaker 5: similar mechanisms could occur with a zempic as with surgery
- 15:32Speaker 5: with regards to changes in relationships. So, in other words,
- 15:36Speaker 5: if you are struggling with you eight right, and don't
- 15:39Speaker 5: feel very confident or attractive or whatever, suddenly you get
- 15:43Speaker 5: the you know, you get the tummy tuck, or you
- 15:46Speaker 5: get the miracle weight loss drug. Suddenly you're looking good again.
- 15:50Speaker 5: But being bada bom, you're out on the town, you're strutting,
- 15:55Speaker 5: you're a strutting round.
- 15:56Speaker 3: He leads peopel, like, what does that say about the
- 15:59Speaker 3: people themselves? Though, because if you are in a loving marriage,
- 16:02Speaker 3: I'd like to think that you enter into a marriage
- 16:05Speaker 3: you love them for who they are, no matter what,
- 16:07Speaker 3: and you get to know them for their heart and
- 16:09Speaker 3: who they are as a person, not what they look
- 16:11Speaker 3: like on the outside.
- 16:13Speaker 6: And what suddenly and what suddenly.
- 16:14Speaker 3: Joe, what we're saying suddenly you lose all this way
- 16:17Speaker 3: and you go, actually, you're no longer as attracted to
- 16:19Speaker 3: me now that I'm hot and skinny, and then you
- 16:22Speaker 3: just go off and have an.
- 16:24Speaker 4: Extramarital because nobody else wanted me. But now that sort
- 16:28Speaker 4: of feeling, and that's that.
- 16:29Speaker 3: Gastric band patients are fifty percent more likely to get
- 16:33Speaker 3: divorced within six years. Fifty that's an extraordinary statistic. But again,
- 16:39Speaker 3: I think it says more about the people than anything else,
- 16:42Speaker 3: because you can't be in a loving marriage if you
- 16:44Speaker 3: lose weight and then you go, actually, you know, I'm
- 16:46Speaker 3: going to trot off.
- 16:47Speaker 1: So it's like, basically.
- 16:48Speaker 2: Because my wife's said it, it's basically, I'm not fat anymore.
- 16:53Speaker 2: I can copper root now, so I'm just.
- 16:56Speaker 4: My wife you're talking about. We look out.
- 17:01Speaker 2: Because I would have thought my theory would have been
- 17:03Speaker 2: that it would actually help marriages, that it would save marriages,
- 17:06Speaker 2: because you'd have, you know, one saying to the other,
- 17:08Speaker 2: g's you put on some weight, God get on the
- 17:11Speaker 2: zim pick.
- 17:12Speaker 4: That's not something you say in a marriage to people,
- 17:15Speaker 4: not Caleb's not single people.
- 17:20Speaker 1: But it's making.
- 17:22Speaker 2: But it's making, it might be causing problems in a marriage, right, Okay,
- 17:26Speaker 2: so you're not saying you're not saying it, but you're thinking, jeez,
- 17:31Speaker 2: she's she's put on a bit of weight lately, and
- 17:33Speaker 2: perhaps things aren't going as swimmingly as they were, and
- 17:37Speaker 2: then she gets on the ozim pick and then you
- 17:39Speaker 2: go fantastic problems.
- 17:40Speaker 3: But yeah, selfish, misogynist, not going as swimmingly as they
- 17:44Speaker 3: were because that what the woman or the man has
- 17:46Speaker 3: put on weight?
- 17:47Speaker 1: Yes, so you go to hang on.
- 17:50Speaker 6: So you think that that is a factor in a relation.
- 17:53Speaker 2: You don't think physical attractiveness is a fact.
- 17:55Speaker 1: You know.
- 17:56Speaker 4: I'm okay.
- 17:56Speaker 3: So you get married, you love each other, you meet
- 17:59Speaker 3: it a certain whatever, Right, she puts on weight or
- 18:02Speaker 3: he gains weight, and you think that that becomes a problem.
- 18:05Speaker 1: Then of course it can.
- 18:06Speaker 3: Okay, well, what about when a woman gives birth? Naturally,
- 18:08Speaker 3: the woman puts on a little bit of weight.
- 18:09Speaker 1: Does that put you on But that's a natural occurrence.
- 18:13Speaker 3: Because you're reading too many natural occurring weight and something
- 18:16Speaker 3: that happens.
- 18:17Speaker 1: But if you put it on.
- 18:17Speaker 2: Weight because you're reading too many cheeseburgers, you know, I
- 18:21Speaker 2: understand why someone might turn around and what's going on.
- 18:24Speaker 1: I mean, that's why I'm married. Same shame applies to
- 18:27Speaker 1: a bloke.
- 18:28Speaker 2: A woman might say, geez mate, you've been drinking too
- 18:30Speaker 2: many kigs beer and now you put on a gut.
- 18:32Speaker 1: That's not what I'm married.
- 18:33Speaker 3: Yeah, but I don't think there's anything wrong with a
- 18:35Speaker 3: beer gut over time, Like if you've.
- 18:37Speaker 2: Been maybe the Fellas, if you want to.
- 18:43Speaker 3: Praise this, right, if he's like fifty years old, he's got.
- 18:45Speaker 6: A bit of a bigger I wouldn't care this.
- 18:47Speaker 1: Okay, sure, but I'm just saying that.
- 18:49Speaker 2: I think it would be a bone of contention in
- 18:51Speaker 2: some relationships when people put on weight and they don't
- 18:54Speaker 2: feel as attractive, as attracted to their partner as they
- 18:58Speaker 2: used to.
- 18:58Speaker 3: And also, look, our ladies, not outlive. If you're watching
- 19:02Speaker 3: this now, literally just giving you the kiss of death.
- 19:06Speaker 1: I did not say that at all. I did not
- 19:09Speaker 1: say that at all.
- 19:10Speaker 2: It may also be the case that people, because they've
- 19:13Speaker 2: put on weight, feel less confident about themselves and feel
- 19:16Speaker 2: less attractive and therefore don't feel sexual or whatever, and
- 19:20Speaker 2: that causes problems in a relationship.
- 19:22Speaker 1: It's a two way street. People.
- 19:24Speaker 5: It might be apparently makes you really irritable and so
- 19:26Speaker 5: maybe the other part I can't be it not in
- 19:29Speaker 5: my wife's case, it looks incredibly.
- 19:33Speaker 2: Actually it's an interesting point because the way of Zimpic
- 19:37Speaker 2: works is that it turns off pleasure receptors.
- 19:40Speaker 5: Basically, so wife already had.
- 19:45Speaker 2: Dig dig dig, So it stops you from eating because
- 19:51Speaker 2: you don't get the sort of dopamine hit from eating
- 19:53Speaker 2: that you were, which is why you were putting on weight.
- 19:55Speaker 1: And apparently it does the same thing.
- 19:57Speaker 2: It can do it for for drugs, so boobs, booze,
- 20:02Speaker 2: but it also does it for sex. It turns off
- 20:04Speaker 2: people's desire to have sex. So you can see why
- 20:08Speaker 2: it may put some pressure on.
- 20:10Speaker 4: Relationships make them happier.
- 20:12Speaker 6: I mean, we could know.
- 20:13Speaker 3: What about this pages but a We're just going to
- 20:14Speaker 3: throw one more thing is if you're a bit older
- 20:17Speaker 3: and you're on oz and pick, I mean the you know,
- 20:19Speaker 3: the testosterone is already.
- 20:20Speaker 6: Lower as you get older. I wouldn't drive for a
- 20:23Speaker 6: woman as lower as you get older.
- 20:24Speaker 4: I wouldn't presume you have to take a pick with
- 20:26Speaker 4: one hand.
- 20:27Speaker 2: And look, look, all I'd say is some of the
- 20:31Speaker 2: stories I've heard out of nursing homes.
- 20:33Speaker 6: Well that is that where you're frequently.
- 20:37Speaker 5: I'm just drawing that it's a cheese burger and that's
- 20:40Speaker 5: a that's a deal breaking ladies, nursing year olds going
- 20:45Speaker 5: at it all the potatoes.
- 20:47Speaker 6: People look out about the women in the doesn't want
- 20:52Speaker 6: you to book what.
- 20:54Speaker 1: Is being accused of tonight.
- 20:57Speaker 2: You'll get your letter in the morning from my Lloyd
- 21:00Speaker 2: about all of this. Anyway, speaking of someone who's probably
- 21:03Speaker 2: had a few lawyers letters in the last few years,
- 21:05Speaker 2: Kanye West. Now, I'm sure you know of Kanye West
- 21:09Speaker 2: as a rapper and a music producer. You may not
- 21:13Speaker 2: be a great fan of his work, and I'm not.
- 21:15Speaker 2: I can't say rap crap does a great deal for me,
- 21:18Speaker 2: but he is one of the most successful recording.
- 21:21Speaker 1: Artists of all time.
- 21:23Speaker 2: But in the last few years he has disgraced himself
- 21:26Speaker 2: on a number of occasions by saying stuff that is
- 21:29Speaker 2: quite wildly anti semitic, just to burnish you with a
- 21:33Speaker 2: few examples, he posed in a swastika T shirt for instance,
- 21:38Speaker 2: I think we have an image here to show you
- 21:42Speaker 2: with that.
- 21:45Speaker 1: That's coming up.
- 21:46Speaker 2: At some point he wore a squastika T shirt in public.
- 21:51Speaker 2: He posted online that I am a Nazi. I love Hitler.
- 21:55Speaker 2: Let's taken out of context, so mister star Mere, I'll
- 21:59Speaker 2: come to him a little later.
- 22:00Speaker 1: He had his visa revoked.
- 22:02Speaker 2: He was meant to come out to Australia last year
- 22:04Speaker 2: and they denied his visa because of these posts. He
- 22:07Speaker 2: wanted to come out here to perform. But he has
- 22:10Speaker 2: now been booked for a performance in the UK.
- 22:14Speaker 1: Has been booked to perform.
- 22:15Speaker 2: At the Wireless Festival, which is a music festival in London,
- 22:21Speaker 2: and the UK Prime Minister, Sir ki as Stama, the
- 22:24Speaker 2: British Prime Minister, has hit out and said he doesn't
- 22:27Speaker 2: like this one bit.
- 22:28Speaker 1: He said.
- 22:29Speaker 2: One of the difficult sorry, he said, is deeply concerning
- 22:32Speaker 2: that Karne West has been booked to perform at Wireless
- 22:35Speaker 2: despite his previous anti Semitic remarks and celebration of Nazism.
- 22:41Speaker 2: Now mister West, for his part, has said that this
- 22:44Speaker 2: was all a great misunderstanding.
- 22:46Speaker 1: It was actually because he's bipolar. That's why he's anti Semitic.
- 22:49Speaker 1: He says.
- 22:50Speaker 2: One of the difficult aspects of having bipolar type one
- 22:53Speaker 2: the disconnected moments, many of which I still cannot recall,
- 22:57Speaker 2: that led to poor judgment and reckless behavior that oftentimes
- 23:00Speaker 2: feels like an out of body experience. I regret, and
- 23:03Speaker 2: I'm deeply mortified by my actions in that state, and
- 23:06Speaker 2: then committed to accountability, treatment and meaningful change. It does
- 23:10Speaker 2: not excuse what I did, though, So I suppose the
- 23:13Speaker 2: question Janika is he is one of the most successful,
- 23:16Speaker 2: as I said before, recording artists of all time, and
- 23:18Speaker 2: he's an incredibly successful music producer. But given his crazy
- 23:24Speaker 2: commentary and a bloke who's posed up in swastika T
- 23:28Speaker 2: shirts and has a song called Hayle Hitler, is he
- 23:32Speaker 2: the kind of guy who deserves to be booked at
- 23:35Speaker 2: a major music festival in London that he's going to
- 23:37Speaker 2: be headlining for three nights in a row.
- 23:39Speaker 3: No, he's gonna get paid millions and millions of dollars
- 23:41Speaker 3: to do so. I mean he packed out two LA
- 23:43Speaker 3: stadiums over the weekend, was paid about thirteen million just
- 23:46Speaker 3: just to do those two. So can you imagine what
- 23:48Speaker 3: he's getting for this? No, he doesn't deserve to be
- 23:50Speaker 3: And let's not forget that these music festivals as they are,
- 23:52Speaker 3: are absolute cess pits for anti Semitism. We saw at
- 23:54Speaker 3: Glastonbury last year when that Bob Villain guy chanted death
- 23:58Speaker 3: death to the IDF, so he should not be anywhere
- 24:01Speaker 3: near that these I don't care, quite frankly, that he's
- 24:04Speaker 3: put out these statements saying oh well I've had bipolar.
- 24:07Speaker 3: What an absolute cop out. I don't care what you've
- 24:09Speaker 3: got or what you have not got when you are
- 24:12Speaker 3: spewing hatred like this, when you're spewing anti Semitic commentary,
- 24:16Speaker 3: your song is called hile Hitler, you wear a T
- 24:19Speaker 3: shirt with a swatsticker on. That is quite frankly unfathomable.
- 24:23Speaker 3: It's unfathomable full stop. But in this current climate where
- 24:27Speaker 3: Jews are fearing for their lives day in day out,
- 24:30Speaker 3: this absolute clown thinks it is appropriate to do so.
- 24:33Speaker 3: And I mean he was told that he can't come
- 24:35Speaker 3: to Australia. That was just Tony Burke saying, oh look,
- 24:37Speaker 3: I'm trying to do something that the guy hadn't even
- 24:39Speaker 3: planned to visit Australia. He shouldn't come here, he shouldn't
- 24:42Speaker 3: be headlining any act. And for once, I actually agree
- 24:46Speaker 3: with what Keir Starmer has come out and said. He
- 24:48Speaker 3: shouldn't be involved in a full stop amazing.
- 24:51Speaker 5: I completely disagree I completely disagree. I have obviously no
- 24:56Speaker 5: truck with anti Semitism, and I've been targeted by Nazis
- 25:00Speaker 5: myself who thought I was Jewish, and so I'm definitely
- 25:03Speaker 5: not no fan of Nazism either, I can promise you that.
- 25:07Speaker 5: But I think this is completely different to the Bobby
- 25:10Speaker 5: Villain stuff. I actually think that his leading of chance
- 25:14Speaker 5: at Glastonbury, of death death the idef far more dangerous
- 25:18Speaker 5: and far more damaging, because they will they actually legitimize
- 25:23Speaker 5: the attacking and targeting of Jews based on what is
- 25:26Speaker 5: happening in Palestine, and they give a sort of political
- 25:29Speaker 5: and moral justification for it. If you look at what
- 25:33Speaker 5: Kanye has been doing and saying, he is so clearly
- 25:37Speaker 5: like quite frankly, he didn't need to take out a
- 25:39Speaker 5: full page ad in the Wall Street Journal to say
- 25:42Speaker 5: that he is mentally ills.
- 25:43Speaker 4: He is absolutely bonkers.
- 25:45Speaker 5: He has been bonkers for a long, long, long long time.
- 25:48Speaker 5: I know a bit about bipolar myself, and I can
- 25:51Speaker 5: tell you that, you know, if you've got you know,
- 25:53Speaker 5: the really really really really hyper serious stuff, you know,
- 25:58Speaker 5: you can't you just you can go completely and utterly,
- 26:01Speaker 5: especially if you're unmedicated. You are just completely off with
- 26:06Speaker 5: in a completely different world. And you can see from
- 26:08Speaker 5: what and we showed those posts there, like if he
- 26:11Speaker 5: was really trying to hurt Jews or come after Jews
- 26:15Speaker 5: or you know, attack them or whatever, he'd be doing
- 26:19Speaker 5: what they're doing on university campuses. He'd be doing the
- 26:21Speaker 5: sort of thing that our academics and activists are saying, legitimizing,
- 26:25Speaker 5: attacking them on the basis that Israel's a genocide and
- 26:28Speaker 5: a part of blah blah blah. He is just coming
- 26:30Speaker 5: out and just saying crazy, crazy, crazy stuff. You know,
- 26:34Speaker 5: I love Hitler, I'm a Nazi all this.
- 26:36Speaker 6: Why is that an excuse, Joe.
- 26:38Speaker 4: Because he's just he's not in his right mind.
- 26:41Speaker 6: He doesn't matter, he's not in his right mind. Why
- 26:43Speaker 6: is he out there?
- 26:44Speaker 5: And again he said it was an excuse because because
- 26:46Speaker 5: he's now apologized for all of this behavior. He said,
- 26:50Speaker 5: I was completely wrong. He said I had no idea
- 26:52Speaker 5: what I was doing, and he said, I know that.
- 26:54Speaker 5: That's not an excuse. He explicitly said that in the
- 26:57Speaker 5: bit of the statement that we just read.
- 26:58Speaker 6: Flip.
- 26:59Speaker 5: Well, if we don't know if he does that, he
- 27:01Speaker 5: doesn't get Evidentally, he has, but he hasn't done it
- 27:04Speaker 5: since then he might And if you are, if you are,
- 27:07Speaker 5: if you are going to say that people can never
- 27:09Speaker 5: ever be forgiven for a mistake that they have made
- 27:13Speaker 5: or for things that they've done, that that is.
- 27:15Speaker 6: I don't think it's got I don't think.
- 27:16Speaker 3: It's incredibly is incredibly but he has a track record
- 27:20Speaker 3: of hate.
- 27:22Speaker 4: He has absolutely apologized for it.
- 27:24Speaker 5: And I don't know if you've seen the High Hitler
- 27:27Speaker 5: song or whatever, but it's it's not as straightforward as
- 27:30Speaker 5: I don't really quite understand it.
- 27:32Speaker 4: But it's a bunch of black people.
- 27:34Speaker 2: It's I think the purpose of the song was because
- 27:37Speaker 2: he'd been accused of that. He basically leans into it
- 27:39Speaker 2: and so will you want to call me and that
- 27:41Speaker 2: you I'm want to.
- 27:41Speaker 1: Do a song saying I'm gonna that's right.
- 27:43Speaker 2: But but but and he's absolutely off chops. I think
- 27:46Speaker 2: he's completely bonkers. And that probably informs a lot of
- 27:49Speaker 2: what he has said in terms of these comments. But
- 27:52Speaker 2: does it still not mean that there's a kernel of
- 27:55Speaker 2: truth in terms of his thinking as to why he
- 27:58Speaker 2: has done this. I mean, bipolar, bipolar, and you do
- 28:01Speaker 2: crazy stuff. Why do you wake up one day and
- 28:04Speaker 2: then decide, well, my specific thing is going to be
- 28:07Speaker 2: to make anti Semitic comments, like surely he's having thoughts
- 28:10Speaker 2: along those lines that then he loses in ambitions because
- 28:13Speaker 2: of his bipolar or whatever, and that's why he starts saying.
- 28:16Speaker 2: It's so publicly and in such a weird way. But like,
- 28:18Speaker 2: surely you don't just roll out a bid one morning
- 28:20Speaker 2: and go I'm by polar. Now I'm going to say
- 28:21Speaker 2: anti Semitic stuff.
- 28:22Speaker 5: Side the guy with duress he is the N word
- 28:23Speaker 5: at the oscars.
- 28:25Speaker 4: But it's not.
- 28:28Speaker 5: It's completely the guy is completely and utterly off chops
- 28:33Speaker 5: and clearly was. You could see from his behavior right
- 28:35Speaker 5: any any video you see of Kanye West over the
- 28:39Speaker 5: past few years, you can see the bloke is absolutely
- 28:42Speaker 5: away with the fairies.
- 28:43Speaker 4: And this is long before.
- 28:45Speaker 5: This is long before any of the Nazi stuff or
- 28:48Speaker 5: the anti Semitic stuff came out.
- 28:50Speaker 4: He is just you see his eyes, there's just they're just.
- 28:53Speaker 3: All right, well, well it's then there's been an intervention then,
- 28:56Speaker 3: and he needs that.
- 28:57Speaker 4: Is what he stand.
- 28:58Speaker 6: That's that's why he should not be forming.
- 29:00Speaker 4: That's why he took out his chops. But that's why.
- 29:02Speaker 5: But he's not did you read the statement he made
- 29:05Speaker 5: to the walls. He said he's now getting the therapy
- 29:08Speaker 5: and the help that's fixing this. He hasn't done anything
- 29:10Speaker 5: since then. And if you are going to say that
- 29:13Speaker 5: you can never ever be even if you show all
- 29:15Speaker 5: the remorse in the world, that you can never be
- 29:17Speaker 5: forgiven for something you've done in the past, that is
- 29:20Speaker 5: not Christian, that is not moral, and that is the
- 29:23Speaker 5: worst possible message you can send.
- 29:25Speaker 3: Right, Well, you say that to a Jewish person and
- 29:26Speaker 3: see how they feel about having heard all of this vile.
- 29:30Speaker 6: Hatred that he has spied in the past.
- 29:32Speaker 3: How Jewish people feel you see that they would be
- 29:34Speaker 3: just like, oh, well he's apologized, we'll move on.
- 29:37Speaker 6: Yeah, he can go and headline a concert.
- 29:39Speaker 4: I mean I would say that person.
- 29:41Speaker 5: If you say to every single person who has ever
- 29:43Speaker 5: expressed any kind of racist or anti Semitic, or whatever
- 29:48Speaker 5: it is, homophobe, whatever statement, that you can never ever
- 29:52Speaker 5: be forgiven for it, no matter how much you express remorse,
- 29:56Speaker 5: then you are just telling all those people you might
- 29:58Speaker 5: as well just go on saying and believing that stuff,
- 30:01Speaker 5: because it won't make any difference even if you repent
- 30:03Speaker 5: and change your ways. That is what you are saying
- 30:05Speaker 5: to people, So you are just fueling that further.
- 30:08Speaker 3: Well, you know what, it'll be interesting to see. But
- 30:11Speaker 3: he's clearly got a lot of fans still. The fans
- 30:13Speaker 3: haven't abandoned over the weekend.
- 30:15Speaker 4: Music is amazing. It just happens to be yay.
- 30:19Speaker 6: That's what he grows Ye is it?
- 30:21Speaker 1: Ye?
- 30:21Speaker 4: Or yeah keeps changing ye.
- 30:23Speaker 6: He keeps seeing this is it?
- 30:24Speaker 3: Probably keeps changing his name because he's off his chops
- 30:27Speaker 3: all the time. You don't know who he is here,
- 30:29Speaker 3: there and everywhere. Look, the world right now is dealing
- 30:33Speaker 3: with an aging population, but in India, they're not only
- 30:36Speaker 3: dealing with an aging population, they're also dealing with children
- 30:40Speaker 3: evicting their own parents from their homes.
- 30:43Speaker 6: Would you believe?
- 30:44Speaker 3: The Times followed this man. His name is and Aaron
- 30:48Speaker 3: dam Chadari. Now his son was thirty five living at
- 30:52Speaker 3: home with him. The pair lived together for a long
- 30:56Speaker 3: time and then after a while, the father eventually gave
- 31:02Speaker 3: the flat to the son and the son evicted him.
- 31:06Speaker 6: Would you believe?
- 31:07Speaker 3: I just I don't know how anybody could actually do
- 31:09Speaker 3: that to a parent.
- 31:09Speaker 6: I think it's absolutely appalling and basically left.
- 31:12Speaker 3: Him homeless left him out on the streets defend for himself. Now,
- 31:16Speaker 3: this is particularly a problem in one town in India,
- 31:19Speaker 3: so much so it's in the southern state of Telangana.
- 31:23Speaker 6: I think that's how you say it. Telangana. It's so
- 31:26Speaker 6: bad there that parents are.
- 31:27Speaker 3: Being evicted that they've actually passed a law that requires
- 31:30Speaker 3: any state employee or elected representative found guilty by a
- 31:33Speaker 3: tribunal of neglecting their parents to lose up to fifteen
- 31:38Speaker 3: percent of their salary.
- 31:40Speaker 6: This is what the article says.
- 31:42Speaker 3: Faced with children increasingly throwing out old parents, the money
- 31:46Speaker 3: will go straight into the parents' bank accounts. You know,
- 31:49Speaker 3: I was thinking about this before we came on, about
- 31:52Speaker 3: what my position is, and you know what, I actually
- 31:55Speaker 3: agree with this, I do, I think fair enough. It
- 31:59Speaker 3: gets a bit tricky if if you have a broken
- 32:00Speaker 3: relationship and you with your parents, if you have an
- 32:02Speaker 3: abusive parent, But if you have a solid relationship like
- 32:07Speaker 3: these two seem to have, I think it is incumbent
- 32:11Speaker 3: that you would look after your parent no matter what.
- 32:14Speaker 3: And if you are incapable of doing that, then I think,
- 32:17Speaker 3: so be it. Fifteen percent of your salary should be
- 32:19Speaker 3: because you're dealing with an aging population. Nursing homes are
- 32:22Speaker 3: packed out. Nursing homes are also very expensive. I mean,
- 32:25Speaker 3: I don't know what parent, what child would do this
- 32:27Speaker 3: to their parent.
- 32:28Speaker 6: I can't fathom it.
- 32:29Speaker 2: They are apparently in the entirety of India eleven hundred
- 32:32Speaker 2: nursing homes, So I mean, no, no, soul. I So
- 32:39Speaker 2: now they're saying I will put a fifteen percent parent
- 32:42Speaker 2: text on you if you don't look after them yourselves.
- 32:44Speaker 2: And I get that they've got a big problem that
- 32:46Speaker 2: they have to deal with because, of course, you know,
- 32:48Speaker 2: they have an aging population, which is a problem facing
- 32:51Speaker 2: a lot of the rest of the world, is a
- 32:52Speaker 2: problem that we face in this country as well, and
- 32:54Speaker 2: you have to do something about it. I suppose the
- 32:57Speaker 2: question from a societal perspective is do you want to
- 33:00Speaker 2: be a society where you look after your parents at home,
- 33:03Speaker 2: which a lot of societies do, or do you want
- 33:05Speaker 2: to be one where you ship them off to a
- 33:06Speaker 2: nursing home or whatever it might be, or.
- 33:09Speaker 4: In this case neither.
- 33:11Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I.
- 33:11Speaker 2: Mean, is there an argument that you know, maybe the
- 33:15Speaker 2: parents are holding the wealth and you know you've got
- 33:19Speaker 2: the you know, what's with them? And you tell them
- 33:20Speaker 2: to pack up and leave. I don't know, it's a
- 33:23Speaker 2: very bizarre situation to be in. But surely your first
- 33:28Speaker 2: instinct as a child, and assuming as you say that
- 33:31Speaker 2: your parent has been a reasonable parent, should be to
- 33:34Speaker 2: do the right thing by them, because you'd like to
- 33:36Speaker 2: think that your parents would do the right thing by you.
- 33:38Speaker 5: Right, yeah, Well, I think that's the deal that you
- 33:41Speaker 5: enter into, isn't it. They look after you when you're
- 33:43Speaker 5: too young to look after themselves, and you look after
- 33:45Speaker 5: them and they're too old to look after themselves.
- 33:46Speaker 4: And it's an interesting.
- 33:47Speaker 5: One because India has a culture of you know, multi
- 33:51Speaker 5: generational households where you do keep the parents and the parents'
- 33:55Speaker 5: generation as part of the family home, and you do
- 33:59Speaker 5: continue to of course, I have to do that because
- 34:01Speaker 5: they don't have the same welfare system, the same age
- 34:05Speaker 5: pension system, well god forbid superannuation system that we have.
- 34:09Speaker 5: And so parents, and you see this in a lot
- 34:10Speaker 5: of developing countries will often have children, and a lot
- 34:14Speaker 5: of children just so they will have someone to take
- 34:17Speaker 5: care of them when they're older. So it seems to
- 34:20Speaker 5: be a massive breaking of the social contract. And I,
- 34:24Speaker 5: for one say good on the sun for breaking those
- 34:25Speaker 5: boundaries and booting the old man out of Roundbreaker.
- 34:29Speaker 1: Would you like to expand on that.
- 34:32Speaker 5: Obviously feel very sorry for the parent in this situation.
- 34:36Speaker 5: I've got my beloved mum living in a house that
- 34:39Speaker 5: I recently came into.
- 34:42Speaker 4: So hi, Mum, how are you?
- 34:43Speaker 5: And rest assured you're safe before we go. I just
- 34:50Speaker 5: cannot let us move on until we have dealt with
- 34:53Speaker 5: the real issue that is confronting the world today, and
- 34:56Speaker 5: that is the fact that Megan Markle still exists. So
- 35:01Speaker 5: Megan Markle has despite saying you know that, you know
- 35:05Speaker 5: that her and Harry just want want to be left
- 35:08Speaker 5: alone in their Montecito mansion, and you know, the press
- 35:11Speaker 5: has to respect their privacy because they've just been so
- 35:13Speaker 5: cruel and mean, even though they all they do is
- 35:16Speaker 5: tell all memoirs and tell all interviews as well as
- 35:19Speaker 5: of course South Park's famous world privacy to us, yes,
- 35:22Speaker 5: a piece of comedy gold anyway, So despite always calling
- 35:25Speaker 5: for this, Megan Markle she must be Jones and for
- 35:27Speaker 5: the clicks because she's shared a peak of Prince Archie
- 35:31Speaker 5: and Princess Lily Bit's Easter festivities. Bunny is egg hunting Oh,
- 35:36Speaker 5: all those little things that just show you just how
- 35:39Speaker 5: normal they are.
- 35:40Speaker 4: If you want privacy, just don't post it. You just
- 35:42Speaker 4: don't have to post it. You don't need to put
- 35:45Speaker 4: your kids on social media. Just not do it.
- 35:49Speaker 6: You know you're not.
- 35:49Speaker 3: My theory is, not do it, You're what My theory is.
- 35:51Speaker 3: They're under pressure at the moment. All eyes are on them,
- 35:54Speaker 3: a lot of scrutiny. They're coming to Australia, there's a
- 35:56Speaker 3: lot of scrutiny about it. So trot out the kids.
- 35:59Speaker 3: There we go. That's a pr exercise. We'll trot out
- 36:01Speaker 3: the kids and make us all.
- 36:02Speaker 5: Looks under pressure. Danika, You've got very good emotional intelligence, Meghan.
- 36:08Speaker 5: It has also been revealed in another article that those
- 36:11Speaker 5: close to Meghan have been giving her nicknames.
- 36:15Speaker 4: Yes, isn't that cruel? Must be between when when.
- 36:19Speaker 5: She's abusing them, Sparkles, not too bad, the American.
- 36:27Speaker 4: Hungsten. Isn't that a that's a that's a heavy mental
- 36:31Speaker 4: It's like it's like a really hard.
- 36:35Speaker 5: Flinty ye cold yes, okay, and mystic Meg because apparently
- 36:44Speaker 5: she's into into astrology.
- 36:47Speaker 4: Hang on, Jackie, might.
- 36:51Speaker 2: Be a breakup in the offering here after the break,
- 36:53Speaker 2: we'll get into the papers plenty more on the fuel crisis.
- 36:58Speaker 2: One place where fuels now five dollars a liter.
- 37:01Speaker 1: Can you believe it? That's coming up.
- 37:11Speaker 2: Let's take a look at tomorrow's news tonight. We'll start
- 37:14Speaker 2: with the Advertiser, move through fuel the papers.
- 37:17Speaker 1: The news Court papers have.
- 37:18Speaker 2: The same story going tomorrow on the tires with his
- 37:21Speaker 2: Mayday callers, energy rationing could be coming within weeks.
- 37:25Speaker 1: Fuel under the pump.
- 37:26Speaker 2: On the front of the Courier Mail they say rations
- 37:29Speaker 2: loom if all lasts another week, fuel cuts deadline. And
- 37:33Speaker 2: on the front of the Daily Telegraph it says no
- 37:35Speaker 2: guarantee of fuel supply beyond a month.
- 37:38Speaker 1: May Day.
- 37:38Speaker 2: Australia's fuel supply cannot be guaranteed beyond May, as experts worn,
- 37:43Speaker 2: fuel rationing is now inevitable and the country.
- 37:46Speaker 1: Will be in crisis mode within weeks.
- 37:49Speaker 4: We did this splash the best out of it because
- 37:51Speaker 4: of the record.
- 37:52Speaker 2: Of course, Joe, you get a pay rise every time
- 37:54Speaker 2: you say those things. While Energy Minister Chris Bowen said
- 37:57Speaker 2: on Monday that security of supply had been locked in
- 38:00Speaker 2: from April and now into May, he would not guarantee
- 38:03Speaker 2: beyond that saying we're not going to overpromise in terms
- 38:07Speaker 2: of months ahead. There will be challenges and concerns. Logistics
- 38:11Speaker 2: and supply chain management expert been far Hymnia, you reckon,
- 38:16Speaker 2: I've done that.
- 38:17Speaker 4: You're just say with confidence?
- 38:18Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, exactly, then fine.
- 38:22Speaker 2: Right from the University of Sydney warned Australia was dangerously
- 38:26Speaker 2: positioned in the global market as a country that relied
- 38:29Speaker 2: on imputs for ninety percent of its fuel, and he
- 38:32Speaker 2: said that fuel rationing was not a hypothetical situation. In fact,
- 38:35Speaker 2: he says it's a must. It's not something we can avoid.
- 38:39Speaker 1: So there you go. We don't know what's going to
- 38:41Speaker 1: happen after May. Fuel rationing is probably coming. What a
- 38:44Speaker 1: wonderful world we live in.
- 38:45Speaker 6: What a wonderful one. But I thought we had enough
- 38:46Speaker 6: fuel that what they has been telling us for weeks.
- 38:49Speaker 4: I've got nothing about.
- 38:51Speaker 6: We're fine, You've got nothing to worry about.
- 38:53Speaker 3: Ill, but take the bus and take wait to take
- 38:56Speaker 3: the bus and train wherever you can possibly do.
- 38:58Speaker 6: Your big help us and happy Easter.
- 39:01Speaker 4: Haven't you seen that documentary? Mad Max?
- 39:03Speaker 6: No? Right, I don't think it's that great.
- 39:08Speaker 3: To be honest, Joe but I do appreciate your optimism
- 39:10Speaker 3: and g spare a thought for those up in the
- 39:13Speaker 3: Northern Territory on the front page they're feeror please explain
- 39:17Speaker 3: as prices nudge.
- 39:19Speaker 6: Five dollars a liter?
- 39:21Speaker 3: Would you believe in the outback at four dollars seventy
- 39:24Speaker 3: five in some places it's not certainly being passed on
- 39:28Speaker 3: the fuel excise cut to consumers.
- 39:31Speaker 6: I mean, this is absolutely.
- 39:34Speaker 3: I cannot even fathom having to pay that much. Can
- 39:36Speaker 3: you imagine five dollars a liter?
- 39:38Speaker 4: It's crazy. Well, it's over three bucks in the Yea. Yeah,
- 39:42Speaker 4: you know.
- 39:42Speaker 5: In the middle of nowhere where you've got to travel
- 39:45Speaker 5: thousands of kilometers.
- 39:46Speaker 2: To the Northern Territory last week invoked this seventy seven
- 39:50Speaker 2: year old legislation that says if for the pixel company's
- 39:55Speaker 2: price garge, they can lock the owners up for two years.
- 40:00Speaker 2: So look, we might into the close lie, we might
- 40:03Speaker 2: see some interesting cases in the northern Yeah.
- 40:05Speaker 4: There certainly will.
- 40:05Speaker 5: And of course in w A they've declared a state
- 40:08Speaker 5: of emergency so they can force the fuel companies to
- 40:11Speaker 5: reveal how much supplies they've got and what their changed up. Anyway,
- 40:16Speaker 5: over to my old hometown, Harold's son. They're also carrying
- 40:20Speaker 5: that h that that big fuel splash and obviously stolen
- 40:25Speaker 5: the headline from the Daily Telegraph and said.
- 40:27Speaker 4: Fuel may day. Why not just make it may day.
- 40:29Speaker 4: It's punchier, it's harder, tells you everything you need to know.
- 40:33Speaker 4: That's why the telly's the best.
- 40:39Speaker 2: It's a little from Benny English. Here he sees thanks,
- 40:41Speaker 2: and Sam Wier says, what are you doing?
- 40:43Speaker 5: Stop denigrating anyway, but another good yarn. Given their due
- 40:47Speaker 5: crime rate, Bill shock, you won't believe just when you
- 40:50Speaker 5: thought Victoria was anything, just couldn't get any worse. Victoria's
- 40:55Speaker 5: record crime rate has driven insurance premiums for cars and
- 40:58Speaker 5: homes in our inner city suburbs almost twice the level
- 41:03Speaker 5: of those in lower socioeconomic neighborhoods. The state's latest crime
- 41:07Speaker 5: statistics revealed car theft were at a twenty year high,
- 41:11Speaker 5: with more than thirty two thousands, unbelievable thirty two thousand
- 41:15Speaker 5: vehicles stolen in the past year. Insurance say the number
- 41:18Speaker 5: of car theft claims has said by a startling, I
- 41:22Speaker 5: don't think you even need to say the word startling.
- 41:24Speaker 5: There fifty nine percent, so more than gone up by
- 41:29Speaker 5: more than a half Jesus car theft insurance claims, with
- 41:34Speaker 5: most being made in metropolitan Melbourne.
- 41:35Speaker 4: So the world's most livable city.
- 41:38Speaker 3: But yeah, and the most safest city too in the world.
- 41:40Speaker 6: If you asked Ja Cina Allen.
- 41:41Speaker 2: I remember, and I think it was when I was
- 41:44Speaker 2: still at the Herald Times. This is more than three
- 41:46Speaker 2: years ago now. Big Judd started posting stuff on social
- 41:49Speaker 2: media about crime in Brighton, and all these people said, oh,
- 41:53Speaker 2: what are you to real complain about the Brighton Brighton
- 41:57Speaker 2: and your will killed part of Melbourne?
- 41:59Speaker 1: How it over yourself?
- 42:00Speaker 7: For it's true, it's proven true, and it's because these gangs,
- 42:06Speaker 7: these kid gangs and whatever, they all go to the
- 42:09Speaker 7: rich suburbs and pinch the cars because they're nice cars
- 42:12Speaker 7: and they get more money and whatever.
- 42:14Speaker 6: Exactly she was right all.
- 42:16Speaker 2: Along, exactly exactly anyway on the front of the town's bullets.
- 42:19Speaker 2: And to borrow, keeping on the crime theme not gold standard.
- 42:24Speaker 2: The state governments in this just great. That's called understate.
- 42:29Speaker 1: Yeah, I know.
- 42:30Speaker 2: The state government's adult crime adult time laws have kind
- 42:33Speaker 2: of fire after a group of offenders, wait for it,
- 42:36Speaker 2: stole a police car while officers.
- 42:39Speaker 1: Were deploying stingers on the Bruce Highway.
- 42:42Speaker 2: Townsville's i in ps have backed the party's legislation, with
- 42:46Speaker 2: one saying the law changes are working, but they're stealing
- 42:50Speaker 2: police cars. I mean, if there's any vehicle you should
- 42:53Speaker 2: not be able to steal, it should be a police car.
- 42:57Speaker 1: And they're still doing this stuff.
- 42:59Speaker 5: Notice, because all the Melbourne car thiefs have stolen literally
- 43:01Speaker 5: every other kind.
- 43:02Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe it's it doesn't leave you with a lot
- 43:06Speaker 3: of faith, does it?
- 43:08Speaker 4: Not gold standards?
- 43:09Speaker 6: It's not gold standards. Sorry, it's it's definitely not gold.
- 43:12Speaker 1: Stand faith you'd want to have at Easter anyway.
- 43:14Speaker 6: No, well that's right.
- 43:16Speaker 3: Let's have a look now at the Canberra at times
- 43:18Speaker 3: redundancies hiring freeze four drum roll.
- 43:21Speaker 6: Please, Climate Department.
- 43:23Speaker 1: We can believe.
- 43:24Speaker 3: The Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water
- 43:28Speaker 3: has confirmed it will freeze new hiring and offer voluntary
- 43:31Speaker 3: redundancies to staff as part of wider belt tightening across
- 43:36Speaker 3: the public service in a state. In a statement, a
- 43:39Speaker 3: spokesperson confirmed that had paused recruitment for new positions and
- 43:43Speaker 3: was offering voluntary redundancies to quote better align. It's five
- 43:46Speaker 3: thousand strong workforce with allocated funding. Oh no, I thought
- 43:52Speaker 3: that the Climate Change Department was going game busters under
- 43:55Speaker 3: the renewables only experiment.
- 43:57Speaker 6: What's happened?
- 43:58Speaker 1: Times are tough, aren't they.
- 44:00Speaker 4: They're always tough in Canberra, Caleb.
- 44:02Speaker 5: Just God, they carry it on their shoulders so the
- 44:04Speaker 5: rest of us don't have to.
- 44:05Speaker 2: Yeah, and I also want to if we can get
- 44:07Speaker 2: the front page back on the Canberra turns there spirit
- 44:11Speaker 2: thought for the poor bloke that you can see there
- 44:13Speaker 2: at the front of that gift and accessories of the
- 44:15Speaker 2: stories about listen to Begga.
- 44:17Speaker 1: But he's had his head blown clean off by the.
- 44:19Speaker 6: Look what's going on in his life?
- 44:24Speaker 5: Chris Just again, just great editorial choices for the Canberra Times.
- 44:30Speaker 5: So look what what we put as our you know,
- 44:32Speaker 5: page one pick splash the backside of a middle aged
- 44:36Speaker 5: bloke walking into Look who.
- 44:40Speaker 4: Is making these just really attracts. Get Ai to do it,
- 44:44Speaker 4: trust me?
- 44:44Speaker 2: And I'm glad that Canbras are caught up as well
- 44:46Speaker 2: on the fact that elicit tobacco is a problem. After
- 44:49Speaker 2: the break the Artemis mission of course taking off there just.
- 44:54Speaker 1: Passing the moon.
- 44:55Speaker 2: Now they've seen things that had never been seen before.
- 44:59Speaker 2: More on that in a moment, Someone get me the
- 45:05Speaker 2: hotline for the Sky News that Jar department. I am
- 45:10Speaker 2: being bullied mercilessly when the head breaks. Here tonight, Janika
- 45:14Speaker 2: is still going on with this business about me supposedly
- 45:17Speaker 2: hitting up birds at the nursing I know.
- 45:20Speaker 6: You're a frequent there.
- 45:22Speaker 1: Honestly, here, please.
- 45:25Speaker 4: You said yourself, you said that you like older women.
- 45:28Speaker 1: I know older women.
- 45:30Speaker 4: It doesn't mean I like them that whole if you
- 45:33Speaker 4: like how much.
- 45:36Speaker 6: A lot old you just spoke about the nursing host a.
- 45:38Speaker 1: Little bit older than me.
- 45:39Speaker 2: Anyway, let's move on from that to something something else
- 45:44Speaker 2: that may also make you vomit in your mouth. And Janika,
- 45:47Speaker 2: what's this about hot cross bands and Doritos?
- 45:50Speaker 6: Is that what you're telling me that.
- 45:55Speaker 1: Hot cross funds?
- 45:56Speaker 3: Sorry, I'm sorry, Okay, focus to Georgia. Now, hot cross
- 46:01Speaker 3: buns and Easter favorite. Now, I personally find this quite disgusting.
- 46:07Speaker 3: But our friends are over at Cole's are selling dorito
- 46:11Speaker 3: flavored hot cross buns.
- 46:13Speaker 4: People.
- 46:14Speaker 6: Look, I don't know.
- 46:15Speaker 3: They apparently have had a selection of wonderful hot cross bund.
- 46:20Speaker 6: Flavors in the past.
- 46:21Speaker 3: There was special Burger sauce at one point a special
- 46:25Speaker 3: Burger sauce. So this is a cheesy Jalipino dorito.
- 46:30Speaker 6: I mean, I don't know. Look, I don't think I
- 46:32Speaker 6: would try.
- 46:33Speaker 3: It, but you could put maybe I don't.
- 46:35Speaker 6: Know, like sorcer in there or something.
- 46:38Speaker 5: You could if you were a psychopath. You don't, I could,
- 46:43Speaker 5: you know, I could stick my face in a blender,
- 46:46Speaker 5: but I don't.
- 46:47Speaker 4: It's dumb and it's wrong.
- 46:50Speaker 2: It could make good television, Joe, I must say, last
- 46:53Speaker 2: year there were Vegemite hot cross bar. That's right, and
- 46:58Speaker 2: I bought some out of curiosity.
- 47:00Speaker 1: Quite nice section.
- 47:02Speaker 5: It's okay, just because Veggiemite is such an Australian But
- 47:06Speaker 5: you knows.
- 47:09Speaker 1: It's straying a bit far from what a hot cris
- 47:12Speaker 1: I think. I think it's about straying a bit.
- 47:15Speaker 2: And how about this chap Joe right to a plays
- 47:19Speaker 2: for infield Town that is a soccer team in the UK.
- 47:24Speaker 2: It's playing in the National League South game. Apparently he
- 47:27Speaker 2: goes around and belts up a rival fan. Now you'll
- 47:30Speaker 2: have a look at the footage. Have a look at
- 47:32Speaker 2: the bottom right hand corner of the screen and you
- 47:34Speaker 2: can see the goalie there goes up to the boundary
- 47:38Speaker 2: line and appears to give someone a bit of a whack. Look,
- 47:43Speaker 2: I know that these soccer matches can get a bit
- 47:45Speaker 2: rowdy and the hooligans and whatever over in England, but
- 47:49Speaker 2: normally it's contained to the spectators. Now you've got the
- 47:53Speaker 2: players getting involved as well.
- 47:55Speaker 4: The soccer hooligans are not meant to be on the field.
- 47:58Speaker 3: In the field, I don't like that, honestly to me,
- 48:00Speaker 3: that they just come across as spoilt brats in titled brats.
- 48:03Speaker 3: When you start seeing that sort of I don't like it.
- 48:07Speaker 4: The fan is getting a bit Lippy's right.
- 48:11Speaker 6: Up, cop it on the chin. Take your frustrations out
- 48:15Speaker 6: in the field.
- 48:15Speaker 4: Kick a goal, a goalie, he can't kick a goal.
- 48:18Speaker 6: We'll go and go and say go and spare it.
- 48:20Speaker 6: Do you know what I mean? Don't take it out
- 48:22Speaker 6: of a fanlight that's just falling.
- 48:24Speaker 4: Well.
- 48:24Speaker 5: Look, if you want to just to finish the night
- 48:26Speaker 5: on a slightly more positive note, we have recolonized space. Yes,
- 48:32Speaker 5: that's right, we're going to the moon. Baby, we are there,
- 48:35Speaker 5: Artemis too. The rocket that we're sending to the moon
- 48:40Speaker 5: again for reasons that no one entirely understands has got
- 48:44Speaker 5: to not just the moon, but the dark side of
- 48:48Speaker 5: the moon. Yes, what fifty six years after Pink Floyd
- 48:54Speaker 5: said that they would see us on the dark side
- 48:56Speaker 5: of the moon, They're actually good.
- 48:58Speaker 4: They're meeting up with them.
- 49:00Speaker 2: We've we we have actually made it and look not
- 49:03Speaker 2: to Pink Floyd, but I will give the last word
- 49:05Speaker 2: tonight to our good friend, a friend of the show,
- 49:07Speaker 2: Frank Sinatra.
- 49:09Speaker 1: Fly me to the moon, let me play among the stars.
- 49:18Speaker 1: Do you reckon James? The person would know that he.
- 49:20Speaker 3: Would have no idea either.
- 49:22Speaker 2: Thank you very much, thank you for watching tonight. Up
- 49:25Speaker 2: next to the reader Paney show, goodnight,
