  Speaker 1: Ned McHenry and Sam Datto, 5AA Early Breakfast.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Four after five, good morning and welcome along to Early
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Breakfast on this first day of September. This Tuesday morning,
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: going for a top of 21 degrees, mostly sunny. The
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: rain or showers are set to return tomorrow. Only around
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: about three mil. Still going for a top of 22. Wednesday,
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: 16 with a few showers. Thursday, 18 with some showers.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: Currently 14.5 in the city.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: Morning, Ned.
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: Sammy, good morning. Good morning to the high-fivers. Or I
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: could say hello, or as the Chinese say, ni hao.
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: We're back to different mornings, are we?
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: Well, that wasn't even an accent. That was just actually...
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: Didn't say. Hello, how are you? The weather is great today.
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: Did you study a language?
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: Not really. Sammy, sometimes I say to the high-fivers and
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: I say to you, good morning, and I say it
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: a little flippantly. I say it with the utmost sincerity
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: this morning. I hope everyone has a great morning. Can
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: you believe we are already in September? I mean, it'll
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: knock your socks off if you think about it for
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: too long.
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: Honestly, yeah, don't think about it too long. It is
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: flying by.
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: Already in September. I'm not sure what it is about
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: this year, but it's gone quickly, hasn't it? Or do
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: we just say that about every year?
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: I think we say it about every year, but as
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: you get older, it definitely goes quicker.
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: Does it go quicker if you're older?
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: I saw a video on the weekend that said.
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: Everything starts to pick up pace once you turn 18.
• 1:36
  Speaker 5: Yep.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: Mentally and how much life you've lived and what you've
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: got to go. At 18 is the sweet spot. From then,
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: it's downhill.
• 1:45
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: I must admit, I think my life's gone so much
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: quicker since moving past those kind of Infant years. Sammy,
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: I've got a top five coming up shortly.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: Before you move on, you're Chinese at the top there, Mandarin.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: Hi-fivers. Does anyone speak a foreign language?
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: 8223 0000 044808 1395. Has anyone got anything in their
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: back pocket? Can you speak a foreign language, no matter
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: what it is? Because other than Ned's, I reckon, intro
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: there in Mandarin, I can't do anything.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: Surely a high fiver can.
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: If we had a high fiver call up and speak
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: to us in a foreign language, I would love that.
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: Pepper's Truck Wash Park.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Oh, wow.
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: I'm going for it.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: That's a big call, and I like it. Text line's
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: going off with some positivity this morning. Slade says, Morning, gents.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: What's that crap intro song?
• 2:38
  Speaker 7: Slade.
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: We've only had it for about seven months.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: What is that song? And, Slade, what is that crap
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: attitude that you're hanging on to this morning? Hey, give
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: that a little shake and get rid of that, mate,
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: because we love the intro song. And don't provide any criticism, please,
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: if you don't provide another option.
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: What would you like? If you've got a critique, give options.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you what, Slade, if you want to suggest
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: a song, we will intro with it tomorrow if it
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: is suitable and appropriate, Slade. Chuck it in there, mate.
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: We'll get that cranking.
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: Top five. What have you got?
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: Do you want me to do it now?
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: Let's do it now.
• 3:13
  Speaker 8: Fun.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: Okay, team. This is the top five biggest risks you
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: can take in 2026. Righto. So this is on-trend current
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: for this time of, you know, whatever. Number five. The
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: fifth biggest risk you can take in 2026.
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: Buying a second-hand European car. Now, that is filled with trouble.
• 3:36
  Speaker 8: Oh, man.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: When a simple service could cost three or four times
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: as much as a, yeah.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: That's if it even runs. I mean, seriously. If you
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: go and buy a European sports car with 250,000 clicks.
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: Good luck. Yeah, good luck to you.
• 3:49
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: A Toyota, on the other hand, God will keep going forever.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: You're only a quarter of its life, you know, quarter
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: of the way through its life there. Got the beautiful
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: Toyota Tundra. My goodness, I just love it. Number four.
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: Clicking a link on a text or taking a call
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: from an unknown number.
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: Risky business.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: That is risky.
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: That is risky.
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: What is there to gain from that?
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: Does anyone pick up unknown numbers?
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: I don't.
• 4:11
  Speaker 9: No.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: Drives me nuts because I just think it's the ATO
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: or someone trying to get me. I am terrified of
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: unknown numbers. Every day I get through without being harassed
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: by an unknown number is a good day. Number three,
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: the third biggest risk in 2026, I've got online shopping
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: on there. I think it's a massive risk. I don't
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: do it. I'm not interested in it. Buying a pair
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: of jeans online.
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: You want to be more specific about online shopping?
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: Specifically pants. I would never purchase pants online. Are you kidding?
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: They're never going to arrive the right size.
• 4:43
  Speaker 10: Are they?
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I went through this about 18 months ago. Never
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: buy pants online.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Mate, just go into the store.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: A pair were too short. I sent them back. They
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: came back. A pair were too long, same size.
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: Exactly.
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: Go into the store. Customer service.
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: Go in there. Try them on. Okay, speak to the
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: lovely man, woman, whoever in the store. Pat the dog
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: if they've got a dog in there and just get
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: amongst it.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: Have you ever been shopping for pants and they've had
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: a dog in there?
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, every now and again.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: Where are you shopping?
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: Number two, a Europe holiday via the Middle East. Number two,
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: risky business in 2026. That's risky.
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: How's that on number one?
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: That's risky business, folks. Don't go past there. Number one.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: I put in misgendering or making comments about the specifics
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: of a baby. What is that again by saying, oh,
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: what a cute little boy? Just keep it gender neutral, Tim.
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: Just say, what a cutie. And do not say, oh,
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: I love his chubby cheeks or something because, you know,
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: something you get in trouble for.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: Don't do that.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: Speaking from experience.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: That's very, very thoughtful of yourself, Ned.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, that's the thing. I'm very, what is it, woke?
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: Is that the word?
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: I am woke. You're so woke, Ned.
• 5:54
  Speaker 8: I am woke.
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: In your big Toyota Tundra.
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: I am 2026 woke. Bonus point, running a legitimate convenience
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: store in 2026. If you've got a corner store.
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: A legitimate one.
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: And you're selling legitimate tobacco and selling a couple of
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: Gatorades every day, you face being firebombed probably very soon.
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: Don't do that.
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: Let's head out to Aldinga Beach. David, good morning.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: David, that would have been sensational if your microphone wasn't terrible.
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: We could barely hear you.
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: It sounds like you're speaking into a sweet potato, David,
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: but I trust that your language is brilliant. Can you
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: try and fix your line?
• 6:46
  Speaker 7: And David's gone.
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: It's a bit of Italian.
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: Dave, if you're listening, try and listen back on the
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: podcast just to hear how awful that sounded. But I
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: trust that your Italian was brilliant.
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: I heard buongiorno.
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: That's all I heard.
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: Buongiorno, mi chiamo Ned.
• 7:20
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 7:20
  Speaker 12: What?
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: You say, buongiorno, mi chiamo Sam. My name is John
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: from Port Augusta. Johnny boy, what's crack-a-lackin'?
• 7:28
  Speaker 7: Morning, boys.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: Heard you on the sports show last night, ripping rowey.
• 7:33
  Speaker 7: Sorry?
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: I heard you on the sports show last night, ripping Rowan.
• 7:36
  Speaker 12: Oh, yeah.
• 7:37
  Speaker 7: See, I thought about it afterwards, what he played that afternoon.
• 7:41
  Speaker 7: He's a good bloke. Stephen Rowe is a really good bloke.
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: He just gives you a lot to know.
• 7:46
  Speaker 7: He just gives you a lot to know. He just
• 7:49
  Speaker 7: gives you a lot to know. But Stephen Rowe speaks
• 7:53
  Speaker 7: another language. It's not English.
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: Goodbye.
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: Johnny goes bang.
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: Now, John, have you got another language or have you
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: got a risk in 2026 or something valuable?
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: Or have you just caught up to riff and a rowing?
• 8:07
  Speaker 7: No, I did study it. Studies at least work. But
• 8:12
  Speaker 7: I did learn a little bit of Italian in high school.
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: Well, go on.
• 8:15
  Speaker 7: I've forgotten. I've forgotten. I think rigor means rule, if
• 8:19
  Speaker 7: I'm not mistaken.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 8:21
  Speaker 7: And I can do uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco.
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: That's one, two, three, four, five.
• 8:26
  Speaker 7: I can do about five or six.
• 8:28
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: So it's the early dawn of the venture.
• 8:30
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 8:30
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 8:31
  Speaker 7: But on something else, I was going to say, yeah,
• 8:35
  Speaker 7: I was thinking when I stood in the row of
• 8:38
  Speaker 7: the boys last night, I do get annoyed with our
• 8:41
  Speaker 7: biases in this space. With both sides, it mainly happens
• 8:45
  Speaker 7: with the Crows and a little bit with Port. Yeah.
• 8:47
  Speaker 7: But just, you know, like, yeah, Barris is a fifth-generation Australian.
• 8:55
  Speaker 7: I'm probably going to marry between the state of Oregon.
• 8:58
  Speaker 7: Call me a disgrace and all the rest of it.
• 9:01
  Speaker 7: But the reason being, I just can't figure the way
• 9:04
  Speaker 7: that certain blokes on this radio station can't say a
• 9:08
  Speaker 7: bad word about South Australia. I mean, I wouldn't live
• 9:10
  Speaker 7: anywhere else. I'd travel as long as I could, but
• 9:14
  Speaker 7: I'd reside here somewhere. Don't get me wrong. But just
• 9:17
  Speaker 7: getting by, I'd just get annoyed with their priority complex.
• 9:21
  Speaker 7: So you hate.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: That the 5AA presenters are proud South Australians, John?
• 9:26
  Speaker 7: I understand that, but I'm a proud South Australian, but
• 9:30
  Speaker 7: not that some of their approaches were the best to
• 9:32
  Speaker 7: get the rest. They're all in good places. That's all
• 9:36
  Speaker 7: I'm saying.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: All right, John.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: Well, I appreciate your input as always. I'm not sure
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: there is anywhere as good as South Australia.
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: I find it funny, though.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: We are, of course, parochially proud South Australians.
• 9:46
  Speaker 8: Yes.
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: You were born in Victoria.
• 9:48
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: Graeme Goodings was born in Victoria.
• 9:50
  Speaker 12: Yes.
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: Graeme Corns was born in Victoria.
• 9:51
  Speaker 9: Yes.
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure Will Goodings was born in New South Wales.
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's the beauty of it is that you've
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: got an appreciation for other places, and that's why South
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: Australia is so important.
• 10:00
  Speaker 8: So good.
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: You know, if you only know what you know, sometimes
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: you don't appreciate it as much, but I'm sure our
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: listeners don't do that. Tom from Williamstown. Tom, good morning.
• 10:09
  Speaker 8: Morning.
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: How are you going? Really well, mate.
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: You asked me to call in yesterday, but I was actually,
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: I start work at 5.30, so I've got the drone
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: footage of the North Adelaide golf course.
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: Tom, you're an environmentalist. What did you see on that
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: drone footage and why was it so disturbing? And can
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: I call you an environmentalist?
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: Well, I guess you can, but I never used to be.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: So what did I see? So all those trees, it
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: looks like they started from the biggest ones first and
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: just pushed them all over or just cut them in
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: half and just, They were just scattered everywhere.
• 10:43
  Speaker 7: It was pretty depressing to see.
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: You see all the footage online and stuff like that,
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: but until you see it for yourself, it was totally
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: different when you were there. I went on the Sunday
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: when Arthur.
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: Said it was all over.
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: But it definitely wasn't all over from what I've seen.
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: But yeah, when I was there, I've seen a few...
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: I guess you can call them protesters, hanging around on
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: the fence lines and stuff. It was a Sunday. There
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: was no one working there at all. So I had
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: the opportunity to have a good chat with a couple
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: of them. And what they've seen throughout the week was
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: pretty distressing on their behalf, with possums falling out of trees,
• 11:28
  Speaker 5: buildings under the trees, I think they were, on the ground. Um,
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: one lovely old lady asked me to go in there
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: and have a look, but I couldn't for obvious reasons. But, um, yeah,
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: it was, it wasn't, it wasn't great, um, feeling being there,
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: if you know what I mean, on that, on that Sunday.
• 11:50
  Speaker 7: Yep.
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: Uh, seeing that, um, I had an ABC reporter ask
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: me to go get some drone footage, and I passed
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: it along to them, so I don't know what they've
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: done with it since then.
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: You're working as a freelancer for the ABC.
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: And now a contributor on ABC. Oh, no, 5AA.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: 5AA, you're conflicting here, Tom.
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: No, that's just, like, I don't know.
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it wasn't good, and what's come out of, The government,
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: when they're trying to silence everyone by turning up all
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: the comments and all that sort of thing is, yeah,
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: not great.
• 12:26
  Speaker 6: I'm not a GP as well.
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: Initially, the announcement was pretty positive, I feel. This is
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: going back, what, February? 45 trees, I think it was.
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: And you could probably cop that, I guess. But when
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: it's turned into almost 400, it's just.
• 12:44
  Speaker 7: It's a bit different.
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: I'm a rev head. I've got a 600-horsepower V8 at home,
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: and I love attending motorsport events and mainly participating in,
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: but I can't really cop this. You call me an
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: environmentalist now. A few years ago, I never used to be,
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: but now I do a lot more bushwalking, living in
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: the hills, and getting back to a bit of nature,
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: that sort of stuff now. I can understand that a
• 13:09
  Speaker 5: lot of people in the city Don't get out to
• 13:12
  Speaker 5: the hills and go for a walk around and stuff
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: like that. So the parkland is their environment, I guess.
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: That's how they get back to nature.
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: Do you mind if I just pop in for one second?
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: What's your view on the replanting of over 3,000 new trees? Oh, no.
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: Is it a net benefit or not?
• 13:31
  Speaker 5: Not really. Maybe for our future generations it might be,
• 13:35
  Speaker 5: but not for us now.
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: Because we're losing established trees that provide habitat.
• 13:39
  Speaker 7: Is that why?
• 13:40
  Speaker 5: You only have to go through the government's own urban
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: canopy documents and see that we're well behind where we're
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: supposed to be for our urban tree canopy. You're saying
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: South Australia is behind with an urban tree canopy compared
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: to other capital cities?
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: I find that hard to believe.
• 13:58
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we're well behind.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: Well behind Melbourne or Sydney?
• 14:01
  Speaker 7: I don't know.
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: I do know the stats, but it's just buried in
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: all my stuff. But, yeah, we're not ahead of anyone else, really.
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: I'd be interested to see that. Tom, as always, appreciate
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: your input.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: Appreciate anyone's input who takes the time to reach out
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: and speak to us on AA.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: Frank from Birkenhead, you've done the same. Frank, good morning.
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: Good morning.
• 14:23
  Speaker 12: I've got just three or four. Things to tell you
• 14:27
  Speaker 12: if I've got the time. Firstly, to do with online. Yes,
• 14:31
  Speaker 12: complete waste of time of buying things online. I bought
• 14:34
  Speaker 12: this jacket online not long ago, and it was leather. Yes,
• 14:38
  Speaker 12: I said it was leather. When I got it, they
• 14:40
  Speaker 12: didn't tell me it was imitation leather. There's a big difference.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Oh, no.
• 14:44
  Speaker 12: Imitation leather.
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: Did you go with the leather pants, Frank, or the
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: leather jacket?
• 14:49
  Speaker 12: Just a jacket. Yeah, just a jacket. Second thing in
• 14:53
  Speaker 12: relation to language, I guess when you say speaking other languages,
• 14:56
  Speaker 12: I don't know whether you mean a full language or
• 14:58
  Speaker 12: a few words. But anyway... What have you got? I...
• 15:02
  Speaker 12: when I go to the local Greek fish and chip shop,
• 15:06
  Speaker 12: I say, and they say back to me in Greek,
• 15:11
  Speaker 12: thank you. That means thank you in Greek. Yeah, they
• 15:15
  Speaker 12: really like, appreciate people saying, you know, saying that to,
• 15:20
  Speaker 12: especially being Greek people. Yeah, they get a kick out
• 15:22
  Speaker 12: of me saying that to them every time. Now, the
• 15:25
  Speaker 12: other thing was trees. Trees, I mean, Peter Malinowskis did
• 15:35
  Speaker 12: say that for every tree, didn't he say he was
• 15:38
  Speaker 12: going to replace them by 10 trees, 10 extra trees
• 15:41
  Speaker 12: or something like that? And the other thing, mate, it's
• 15:44
  Speaker 12: going to bring a lot of money and revenue to
• 15:47
  Speaker 12: the state, mate. But trees can always be replaced, mate.
• 15:51
  Speaker 12: You know what I mean? He's giving all those extra
• 15:53
  Speaker 12: trees for one. I'm sure he said that.
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: Thank you, Frank, for your opinion. Appreciate that. Do we
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: have to get a little break, Sammy?
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: We do in a second.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: Andrew on the text line, the Adelaide MotoGP plan is
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: so much more than a racetrack upgrade. There's no other
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: project that would see the planting of 3,400 new trees,
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: the relocation of 88 mature trees, the planting of 123,000
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: native shrubs and the expansion of the Chequered Copper Butterfly
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: Habitat in Victoria Park. So if anyone's got any thoughts,
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: you can jump on the phones. 8223 0000. Slade at
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: the top of the show was rubbishing our intro song, though.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: Slade in North Haven, while Steve in Seaford Rise is
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: bitten back.
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: What'd Steve say?
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: The intro song is awesome, fellas. Puts a smile on
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: my face every day.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: Well, that's appreciated, Steve. Good to hear you got a
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: smile on your doll, my friend.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: 21 after 5, 8223 0000. Anyone can speak a foreign language.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: Ned McHenry and Sam Datto. 5AA Early Breakfast.
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: Hello, how are you? The weather is great today.
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: And Ned was exactly right.
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: 24 after 5, 8223 0000, taking your calls on troubles
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: or risky things you can do in 2026, or if
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: you can speak a foreign language, we'd love to hear
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: from you, all you high-fivers out there.
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: Sue in Mylaw, good morning.
• 17:15
  Speaker 13: Good morning, guys. I'd like to tell you one of
• 17:18
  Speaker 13: my favourite loyal animal stories, but can I just say first,
• 17:22
  Speaker 13: I'm an online shopper.
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: Oh, are you, Sue?
• 17:25
  Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah.
• 17:26
  Speaker 13: And I tend to stick to the sites that I know.
• 17:31
  Speaker 13: So if I have a really good site and I
• 17:33
  Speaker 13: use it a lot, I stick to them.
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: Is there any items that you wouldn't buy online?
• 17:38
  Speaker 13: I don't buy a lot of clothes online. I buy
• 17:39
  Speaker 13: T-shirts because I like my cat T-shirts. But, you know,
• 17:45
  Speaker 13: I buy books and CDs and stuffed animals. When you say.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: Cat T-shirts, sorry to interrupt you, Sue. Is that like
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: having a cat on it? Like the face of a cat?
• 17:54
  Speaker 14: Yeah, yeah.
• 17:54
  Speaker 13: I've got about 85 cat T-shirts.
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: That is unreal, Sue.
• 18:00
  Speaker 13: Yeah, I love my cat T-shirts.
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: You have 85 T-shirts with cats on them?
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: I'm laughing in a really positive kind of fun way.
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: I think that's fantastic, Sue.
• 18:10
  Speaker 13: Yeah, and then there's lots of, I've got lots of kangaroos,
• 18:13
  Speaker 13: one of the koala ones, and native Australian birds, and otters,
• 18:17
  Speaker 13: and meerkats, but 85 cat T-shirts, yes. But that's the
• 18:22
  Speaker 13: golden rule. I tend to stick to the sites that
• 18:24
  Speaker 13: I've done well with over the years, and I'm familiar with.
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: Do they get you with the ads, Sue? Do they
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: know now you're a sucker.
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: For a cat T-shirt?
• 18:32
  Speaker 13: Occasionally, I do fall for the odds.
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: If I was starting a cat T-shirt brand, I'd be targeting.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: You on Meta.
• 18:39
  Speaker 13: Yeah, they sort of know what I like, so I
• 18:42
  Speaker 13: have to behave. But I just want to cheer everyone
• 18:45
  Speaker 13: up with a loyal animal story that's a bit different.
• 18:50
  Speaker 13: A few years ago, I had my beloved pet pig, Amber.
• 18:56
  Speaker 13: And I loved her very much. And one of our
• 18:58
  Speaker 13: favourite games was to race down the driveway, a long
• 19:02
  Speaker 13: winding driveway, and we'd race down to the front gate together.
• 19:05
  Speaker 13: And this particular day, I was out in the yard
• 19:09
  Speaker 13: with her and we were pottering around and she was over,
• 19:11
  Speaker 13: I don't know, about 100 metres from me doing something.
• 19:14
  Speaker 13: And out the driveway wanders this bloke who I didn't know.
• 19:18
  Speaker 13: I'd never met him. I thought, who's this? I thought
• 19:20
  Speaker 13: he was one of those religious people, but he wasn't.
• 19:22
  Speaker 13: And he walked up to me and he said, oh...
• 19:25
  Speaker 13: I've got your divorce papers, and I said, I don't
• 19:28
  Speaker 13: want them, and he said, don't care, and threw them
• 19:30
  Speaker 13: at me, and they kind of landed on the ground,
• 19:33
  Speaker 13: and Amber was watching, and she came over, she sat
• 19:37
  Speaker 13: like a dog, she leaned right up against me and
• 19:41
  Speaker 13: sat there like a dog, and she started growling, and
• 19:44
  Speaker 13: she was being very protective of me, and she'd never
• 19:48
  Speaker 13: done that before, and she's a big girl. And the
• 19:53
  Speaker 13: guy sort of wandered off down the driveway. And as
• 19:56
  Speaker 13: he got down the driveway a bit, she took off
• 20:00
  Speaker 13: after him, growling like crazy. And all I could see
• 20:04
  Speaker 13: was arms going everywhere and him saying, I don't get
• 20:06
  Speaker 13: paid up enough for this. And she chased him all
• 20:09
  Speaker 13: the way down the driveway to the front gate and
• 20:11
  Speaker 13: pushed him out the gate and kept growling at him.
• 20:16
  Speaker 13: And then she came back up to me and leaned
• 20:18
  Speaker 13: up against me and just went, boink. She was looking
• 20:23
  Speaker 13: after me.
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: There you go, Sue. So, yeah, the pig kind of
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: had that emotional intelligence at the time.
• 20:28
  Speaker 13: She was, and she never did it again. She didn't
• 20:31
  Speaker 13: have to, but that was just the one time she thought, no,
• 20:35
  Speaker 13: I'm looking after her. And she sat there like a dog.
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: No doubt a challenging time that was for you, Sue,
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: so we appreciate you sharing that anecdote. Aren't pigs supposedly
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: one of the most intellectually intelligent animals?
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe. I'm not sure.
• 20:51
  Speaker 4: Oh, you're more of a sheep guy.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: Well, I eat bacon. I'm not too stressed about them. Hello,
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: Robert from Marion.
• 20:56
  Speaker 7: Morning, lads.
• 20:57
  Speaker 10: I've got a bit of foreign language for you. I've
• 21:00
  Speaker 10: had a Chinese missus for the last 10 years, so.
• 21:06
  Speaker 10: Ni hao mai yan, kai xing guo wai ni, ni
• 21:09
  Speaker 10: sang chi guo.
• 21:11
  Speaker 8: Okay.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: Is that appropriate, Robert?
• 21:14
  Speaker 10: It is not appropriate. It basically means hello and then
• 21:19
  Speaker 10: her name. I think I love you, and would you
• 21:23
  Speaker 10: like to go for a roll in the hay?
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: Oh, that's wholesome. Robert, that's fine. That is absolutely play
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: on at 5.29 in the morning.
• 21:34
  Speaker 10: That has got to be worth some free Royal Show tickets, lads.
• 21:38
  Speaker 7: Come on.
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: I love the Royal Show, Robert. You like it?
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: We're not lucky enough to have Royal Show tickets, but
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: we can give you a Pepper's Truck washback.
• 21:46
  Speaker 6: I will take a Peppers watch pack.
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: That's great.
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: Now, we'll get that to you, Robert, and we'll take
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: your number down, and we'll see if we can organise
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: any Royal Show tickets.
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: I'm sure we can get... I'm the Royal Show ambassador, mate.
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: Surely you can do it.
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: If anyone can pull that out, Robert, I can. I'll
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: see what I can do there.
• 22:04
  Speaker 7: I appreciate it.
• 22:05
  Speaker 10: I've got to take, like, four kids, and then if
• 22:06
  Speaker 10: you look at the entry, you're like, oh, my God,
• 22:08
  Speaker 10: then they want show bags, then they want rides, and
• 22:11
  Speaker 10: it's 700 bucks going down the drain.
• 22:12
  Speaker 7: Crikey. All right.
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: I'll take your number.
• 22:16
  Speaker 8: Cheers, Lance.
• 22:17
  Speaker 10: I appreciate it.
• 22:18
  Speaker 7: See you, Robert.
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: Ned's on the case.
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm on the case. I bought a robo-vacuum for
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: someone last week. I mean, seriously.
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: I'm actually in the net negative commercially by doing this show.
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: Mike from Australia, good morning.
• 22:31
  Speaker 6: You could always sell some sheep.
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I could sell some sheep. Price is coming back
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: a little, Michael, but still pretty strong.
• 22:38
  Speaker 6: Some observations. It's actually quite warm, isn't it, this morning?
• 22:42
  Speaker 6: It's one of the warmest mornings we've had for several months.
• 22:44
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: You walking?
• 22:45
  Speaker 8: No.
• 22:46
  Speaker 6: Yes, walking edge. I just observed the cherry blossoms really
• 22:50
  Speaker 6: out in strength this morning. I've got a bit of
• 22:54
  Speaker 6: a gripe. The gripe is with Malinowskis and the MotoGP
• 22:59
  Speaker 6: and the PAR. And what I don't understand is how
• 23:04
  Speaker 6: much time has he spent with all of his advisors, all,
• 23:07
  Speaker 6: what is it, 80 of them, on having round table discussions,
• 23:12
  Speaker 6: how we can push this through the state government and
• 23:15
  Speaker 6: over the people of Adelaide. in South Australia, when there's
• 23:18
  Speaker 6: so much more that needs to be attended to. For instance,
• 23:23
  Speaker 6: the Adelaide Hospital, the Children's Hospital, the tunnelling on Darlington,
• 23:28
  Speaker 6: the schools, public transport, ramping, country hospitals. There's so much
• 23:36
  Speaker 6: more where this money could be spent to a better
• 23:38
  Speaker 6: benefit of.
• 23:38
  Speaker 7: The people of South Australia.
• 23:40
  Speaker 6: And trying to think about the long-term gain is You know,
• 23:44
  Speaker 6: what we're not really probably being told, and some people
• 23:46
  Speaker 6: have alluded to, is the race for trying to secure
• 23:50
  Speaker 6: Formula One again. You know, it's like the horse has
• 23:53
  Speaker 6: bolted on that. Forget about it.
• 23:54
  Speaker 7: Move on to something else.
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: You don't think, though, the amount of economic benefit that
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: we will get from having the MotoGP race, the Premier
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: has stated that $ 1. 2 billion over the next six years
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: of the race, $ 200 million a year, that's not going
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: to have some sort of benefit for the state as
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: a whole instead of where those places where you've spoken
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: with health and roads, we're already putting money into those areas,
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: but you don't see the benefit of that?
• 24:19
  Speaker 6: Sam, there's always going to be some little benefit.
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: Little benefit?
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: I'd say $ 1. 2 billion over six is a big benefit, no?
• 24:27
  Speaker 6: Sam, you don't hear what his advisors are telling him
• 24:31
  Speaker 6: in the background. And there were always, you know, politicians
• 24:34
  Speaker 6: who all put some sort of silver lining to a cloud,
• 24:38
  Speaker 6: you know, mutton dressed up as lamb. You know, what
• 24:40
  Speaker 6: else are they going to do? The politicians, they're always
• 24:42
  Speaker 6: going to lie to us and try and put a
• 24:44
  Speaker 6: spinner to make it look sound and sweet and make
• 24:47
  Speaker 6: us think, oh, yeah, there's going.
• 24:48
  Speaker 7: To be a great benefit to us.
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: Come on.
• 24:50
  Speaker 4: So you think we shouldn't be doing it at all?
• 24:54
  Speaker 7: No, I think it should be out of the bend.
• 24:56
  Speaker 6: Put it to the bend.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: But we know the argument about it being at the bend.
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: If it was at the bend, we wouldn't have it.
• 25:01
  Speaker 7: Exactly.
• 25:01
  Speaker 6: So why do we have to have it in our
• 25:03
  Speaker 6: backyard in the Adelaide City?
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: Why not?
• 25:06
  Speaker 6: Because for the reasons of what they've done, why do
• 25:11
  Speaker 6: we have to go and remove the trees and somehow
• 25:14
  Speaker 6: have an agenda that's not being fully disclosed to us
• 25:17
  Speaker 6: that ultimately is to probably go for the Formula One
• 25:21
  Speaker 6: Grand Prix again? And you know what? You look at
• 25:25
  Speaker 6: the circuit. It's a lot of runoff, isn't it, in
• 25:28
  Speaker 6: that gravel area. if he was up for having what's
• 25:35
  Speaker 6: called a public vote on this, he would lose because
• 25:39
  Speaker 6: the MotoGP public are in the minority. They're a smaller
• 25:42
  Speaker 6: minority than the Formula One.
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: I mean, he won the election pretty soundly.
• 25:46
  Speaker 6: Yeah, but on another platform, not for the MotoGP.
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: Well, he went to the election with the MotoGP as
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: part of a policy plan.
• 25:55
  Speaker 7: No, I don't recall that.
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: All right, thank you, Michael. We've got to keep moving on.
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: Peter and Marlison, good morning.
• 26:02
  Speaker 7: Good morning.
• 26:03
  Speaker 8: I just tuned in. Now, do you want my tips
• 26:05
  Speaker 8: now or Friday?
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: Let's take them now, Peter.
• 26:11
  Speaker 8: I thought you said that to get rid of me.
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: No, Peter, Peter, Peter, Peter. We never want to get
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: rid of you. We love you. You're hilarious.
• 26:18
  Speaker 8: We're not having a bet. We've got the 5AA listeners
• 26:21
  Speaker 8: luncheon at the Cormoran on Thursday, September the 10th. So
• 26:25
  Speaker 8: I'll say you go first, Neddy.
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: Okay, games. What have we got? We've got Norwood Glenelg, correct?
• 26:34
  Speaker 8: Norwood, Woodville, West Torrance versus Glenelg.
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: Okay, well, Glenelg will beat the Eagles, no doubt about it,
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: and I know which way you're going to lean for
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: the next game.
• 26:45
  Speaker 7: Do you?
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: Yes, I do. Well, you've You know what? I actually
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: think it's Glenelg and Sturt. I think Sturt might beat Norwood,
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: as crazy as that sounds.
• 26:56
  Speaker 8: Well, we're going to differ on one, and people in
• 26:59
  Speaker 8: Adelaide won't believe this. I was 20 when Sturt lost
• 27:03
  Speaker 8: to Norwood in the 1978 Grand Final, and I still
• 27:06
  Speaker 8: have nightmares from that game when Des Foster gave Phil
• 27:10
  Speaker 8: Gallagher a dubious three or mark, and they won by
• 27:14
  Speaker 8: a point.
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: Peter, who's your pick?
• 27:17
  Speaker 12: Norwood.
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: Thank you. Peter from Marston, everybody. Bruce in Woodford. Good
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: morning to you. What's... Peter needs more time. Bruce, good morning.
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: He's going to flesh things out.
• 27:25
  Speaker 7: Hello there.
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: We've only got now.
• 27:26
  Speaker 9: Am I on air?
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: Yes, you are. Go for it, Bruce.
• 27:30
  Speaker 9: Thank you very much. Listen, Michael, you mentioned, Sam, yesterday
• 27:34
  Speaker 9: about the formula line, and it's very interesting how people
• 27:39
  Speaker 9: on the fringe actually will wrap a hold of something
• 27:42
  Speaker 9: that you actually mentioned yesterday and use it as a primary...
• 27:46
  Speaker 9: argument for something. I think that the Premier doesn't lie.
• 27:51
  Speaker 9: I don't think politicians in general lie, and I don't
• 27:55
  Speaker 9: think that we as a state would gain any benefit
• 27:59
  Speaker 9: if 5% of the trees that are going to be
• 28:02
  Speaker 9: cut down in the area where the MotoGP is going
• 28:08
  Speaker 9: to be conducted were left. I'm not a motorsport supporter.
• 28:14
  Speaker 9: I can't... I can't enjoy it because I'm blind, but
• 28:21
  Speaker 9: I think that $ 1. 2 billion benefit over a few years
• 28:26
  Speaker 9: is actually a significant, a very significant benefit to the state.
• 28:33
  Speaker 9: And I think that Michael and people like him are
• 28:36
  Speaker 9: probably really only very blinkered in their view and in
• 28:41
  Speaker 9: the idea about providing some sort.
• 28:45
  Speaker 5: Of benefit support.
• 28:47
  Speaker 9: For the advancement of South Australia, which is increasingly becoming
• 28:53
  Speaker 9: a more significant member of the Commonwealth.
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: Thank you, Bruce.
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: Well done, Bruce.
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: Appreciate your views as well.
• 28:59
  Speaker 9: Thank you.
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, really appreciate it. I don't think anyone's right or wrong.
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: That's what we love about this show. That's what we
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: love about every show on 5AA. You can call up
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: and have your say. Now, that's Bruce's say. Michael can
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: have his say too. I think we know where you sit, Sam,
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: and I'm probably somewhere... in and around you and Bruce
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: as well. But there are some people who are really
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: passionate about the environmental impact of this policy, and they
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: don't really see the commercial benefit of the MotoGP as
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: being realistic as what the model looks like or what
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: the forecast looks like.
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: Peter from Moon to Bay on the text line goes vroom, vroom.
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: I think we know where he stands. However, texts are
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: ending in 112. This guy is spot on. Some are
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: so naive.
• 29:37
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: Fair enough.
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: That's your opinion.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: Rob in Clearview, people need to understand this is new
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: money into the state that wouldn't have been spent here
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: in the first place. Money we would have not otherwise
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: had access to.
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: And that's been Peter Malinowskis' view around debt. It's such
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: an easy cop-out thing to blame the state government for
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: record debt, and it's lazy because he's actually growing the
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: economy quite quickly compared to previous state governments. So more GDP,
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: more money, it actually helps us fix things like roads
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: and hospitals. We can't just say, look, let's allocate all
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: of our state budget to those areas. We need to
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: grow the economy so we actually have more capital to
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: work with in future time. That's me pretending to be
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: an economist for a little bit there, sir.
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: Rex and Dirk, let's go back to the 6 o'clock
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: pub closing. No shopping on weekends and rip up Rundle
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: Mole and plant grass. Keep the great work going. Mally,
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: that's Mick as well.
• 30:25
  Speaker 4: We've got to get to a break, Ned.
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: 12 minutes to 6, 8223 0000. Good discussions happening on
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: early breakfast.
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: Really good discussions, yeah.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: If you have an accent too, call up and do
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: the accent. If you know a foreign language, yes. Let's
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: just steer clear of accents.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: Ni hao ma zhong shi hong hao. That is a
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: foreign language, not an accent, so I'm allowed to do that.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: Tommy Wren coming up shortly with the sport. Your time
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: for calls as well. 8223 0000.
• 30:50
  Speaker 15: 19 to 6 on this Tuesday morning, the 1st of September,
• 31:03
  Speaker 15: going for a top of 21 degrees, mostly sunny.
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: Currently in the city, 14.5. It's a warmer one.
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: And, Nettie, we spoke quickly yesterday at the end of
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: the program. Tim Looker turned 74 years of age, decided
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: to become a lawyer. 75 now, and he's representing, he
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: was helping out some homeless people during the week, volunteering.
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: Tim Looker appeared on 5AA Mornings yesterday and had this
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: to say.
• 31:26
  Speaker 11: As I said before, I'm not some miracle baby. It
• 31:31
  Speaker 11: just sort of happened. I thought, well, this looks interesting. Look,
• 31:34
  Speaker 11: the world is a fascinating place. And the more you know,
• 31:39
  Speaker 11: the more you want to know. And this week I'm
• 31:45
  Speaker 11: ambassador for Adult Learners Week. and just encouraging people, look,
• 31:49
  Speaker 11: do a course in something. The course I did studying
• 31:54
  Speaker 11: under Mem Fox transformed my life. But one of the
• 32:00
  Speaker 11: things is that I was a mature age student then
• 32:02
  Speaker 11: in my 30s, I was a mature age student and
• 32:07
  Speaker 11: surrounded by 18-year-olds at that stage. And then in my
• 32:10
  Speaker 11: law degree, I was surrounded by sort of 20-year-olds. I've
• 32:13
  Speaker 11: never sort of been around old people whinging about their joints.
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: Tim Looker there on 5AA Mornings. Became a lawyer at
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: the age of 74. He's now 75. So what's something
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: that you have picked up later in life? Have you
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: studied a course? Have you done something that's a bit
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: out there that you might think? 8223 0000 044808 1395.
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: We want to bust the myth that old dogs can
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: be taught new tricks.
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, like it. Or something you'd love to do as well.
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: Something just later in life you've taken on or would
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: like to take on.
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: Jump on the phones.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: The latest in sports with Tom Wren.
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: Morning, Renny.
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: Morning, boys.
• 32:51
  Speaker 14: Plenty happening in the footy world. We'll talk about Crows. Also,
• 32:55
  Speaker 14: Port Adelaide, they've got their best and fairest on tonight,
• 32:57
  Speaker 14: so we'll see who takes out the John Cale medal.
• 33:01
  Speaker 14: But in terms of Adelaide, tickets go on sale today
• 33:04
  Speaker 14: for the Crows fans that are keen to Head on down,
• 33:07
  Speaker 14: I'm sure they'll get set up very, very quickly.
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: It's a big game.
• 33:10
  Speaker 14: We know that. So looking forward to seeing how it
• 33:12
  Speaker 14: all goes and the atmosphere is going to be electric.
• 33:15
  Speaker 14: But we've spoken about it a fair bit, Ned, the
• 33:17
  Speaker 14: Crows and how they're, you know, facing a lot of pressure,
• 33:21
  Speaker 14: particularly the coach, Matthew Nix, and needs to win a final.
• 33:24
  Speaker 14: I think, you know, you were sort of forecasting this
• 33:27
  Speaker 14: back in April, May, saying they've got to win a final.
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: That's the minimum. It's funny though, isn't it?
• 33:32
  Speaker 14: Once you get to finals, down to eight teams, the
• 33:36
  Speaker 14: pressure and the focus starts to zero in on each
• 33:38
  Speaker 14: team because there's fewer other teams to talk about. So
• 33:42
  Speaker 14: last night, Tom Morris, Channel 7, had this to say
• 33:46
  Speaker 14: on Matthew Nix.
• 33:47
  Speaker 16: Tonight we can tell you on the agenda setters that
• 33:50
  Speaker 16: if Adelaide loses to the Western Bulldogs this Saturday, then
• 33:53
  Speaker 16: I expect Matthew Nix will lose his job. Now, the
• 33:56
  Speaker 16: belief at the Crows is they like Matthew Nix, they
• 33:59
  Speaker 16: respect Matthew Nix, they want Matthew Nix to be the guy,
• 34:02
  Speaker 16: but ultimately they believe they can't absorb Adelaide. a seventh
• 34:06
  Speaker 16: season straight without a finals victory.
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: Now, they're also acutely aware.
• 34:10
  Speaker 16: That they can't take Nicks into 2027 with a year
• 34:15
  Speaker 16: with at least one finals victory under his belt on
• 34:18
  Speaker 16: the way through. So we compare his record to Neil
• 34:20
  Speaker 16: Craig's record, and Neil Craig is the longest-serving Adelaide coach
• 34:24
  Speaker 16: as it is. Nicks, if he coaches into next year,
• 34:27
  Speaker 16: will overtake Neil Craig's record at the Crows.
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: And the Crows believe.
• 34:31
  Speaker 16: That they can't have that unless, of course, he coaches
• 34:34
  Speaker 16: at least one finals victory, and that would be this weekend.
• 34:37
  Speaker 16: Making this game this weekend, Hutchie, simply a must win.
• 34:41
  Speaker 4: There you go.
• 34:41
  Speaker 14: So he was sort of putting it out there, and
• 34:44
  Speaker 14: Nick Riewoldt, who was on the show with him as well, said,
• 34:46
  Speaker 14: how could that possibly be the case? You know, it's
• 34:48
  Speaker 14: too much pressure. You know, why would they be putting
• 34:52
  Speaker 14: these parameters on them?
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: But I think.
• 34:55
  Speaker 14: I think Nix has probably known this for most of
• 34:57
  Speaker 14: the season, Ned, that he's got to raise the bar
• 35:01
  Speaker 14: again from last season.
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Scoopy Morris, nice work over there with the Melbourne media.
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: They've finally worked out who the Adelaide Crows are and
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: they're reporting on it. Nice work, Scoopy. I don't think
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: the Crows or Nix will have a problem because I
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: think they'll win this final and I think they'll win
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: it convincingly.
• 35:15
  Speaker 17: But.
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: The possibility of Matthew Nix losing his job if they lose,
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: I think, is real. And I think the expectation from
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: board level and governance at the Adelaide Crows is that
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: they need to win a final this year or change
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: will happen. And I just think that's a reality.
• 35:31
  Speaker 14: And that's high performance. I'm a bit with you, Ned.
• 35:33
  Speaker 14: I sort of think, well, that's the world we live in.
• 35:36
  Speaker 14: He's had seven years and I really like Matthew Nix too.
• 35:39
  Speaker 14: And I like where the club's going, but I compare
• 35:42
  Speaker 14: it to Hawthorne and Fremantle who started rebuilds at similar times,
• 35:46
  Speaker 14: or in Hawthorne's case, a bit later. And I know
• 35:49
  Speaker 14: there's been other sides like Essendon that have stagnated, but
• 35:52
  Speaker 14: Hawthorne and Prairie, for example, they're flying. And they seem like,
• 35:55
  Speaker 14: you know, they're right in the window. And if the
• 35:57
  Speaker 14: crows miss again, it's going to feel like, oh, you know,
• 36:00
  Speaker 14: what's happening here? Why aren't the crows at that level
• 36:04
  Speaker 14: that those two sides are?
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: So, you know, unfortunately, that's just where it is.
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: But then also on the other side, you've got the
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: Bulldogs coming off a game last weekend, the Crows coming
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: off a bye.
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: They win one final, lose another. Does that just mean
• 36:18
  Speaker 4: he automatically keeps his job?
• 36:19
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: Is that the pass mark that they're going for? That's
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: exactly it. It's a great question.
• 36:24
  Speaker 14: I don't think that probably guarantees that he will be
• 36:28
  Speaker 14: safe beyond 2027, but it probably buys him time.
• 36:34
  Speaker 4: It gives him a bit more time, doesn't it?
• 36:36
  Speaker 14: So, yeah, I think if they make a prelim– It's
• 36:40
  Speaker 14: a pretty good effort, and you would think they're probably
• 36:43
  Speaker 14: going to play Sydney if they do that. You're right, Sammy.
• 36:46
  Speaker 14: They should win this week. Puts a lot of pressure
• 36:48
  Speaker 14: on that game, though, doesn't it? They can see the
• 36:50
  Speaker 14: first three goals on Saturday night, but that's finals footy.
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: Everything gets magnified. It's September. The weather's nice and warm.
• 36:57
  Speaker 4: The sun's out.
• 36:58
  Speaker 7: That's good.
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: He's done a good job to this point, Matthew Nix.
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: I think there was some criticism.
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: He got rid of you.
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I'm looking at it holistically. Matthew Nix has
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: done a really good job.
• 37:08
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 37:08
  Speaker 14: And last two seasons have been great. Win-loss have been great.
• 37:11
  Speaker 14: But the final, you know, they didn't win a quarter.
• 37:13
  Speaker 14: Everyone's spoken about it. And we said 12 months ago, Ned,
• 37:16
  Speaker 14: the test for Matthew Nix in this group will be
• 37:19
  Speaker 14: and they can't answer that challenge until they make the finals.
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: Well, here they are.
• 37:23
  Speaker 4: Now they have to do it.
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: This is where the sticky point comes, if we're being
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: real and realistic. Is Frio's list better than the Crows?
• 37:30
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: Sydney Swan's list better than the Crows?
• 37:32
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: Brisbane's?
• 37:34
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: Hawthorne?
• 37:36
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: Geelong?
• 37:38
  Speaker 8: Yes.
• 37:41
  Speaker 5: Probably.
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: Probably, right?
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: So I agree.
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: So if you look at it from a coaching perspective,
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: he's actually done an outstanding job. The teams around him,
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: I think Melbourne, Collingwood, Carlton, Western Bulldogs, you start talking
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: about having a similar, if not slightly worse, list than
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: the Crows. So he's about where they sit. This is
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: the thing. People expect coaches to pull a rabbit out
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: of their clacker. and do something with a list that
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: is impossible. List management and the talent on your list
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: is 80% of everything. The coaching is just the icing
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: on the cake. Now, Matthew Nix has done probably about
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: right for where the list is to this point, but
• 38:13
  Speaker 3: he has to win finals against other coaches that have
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: similar lists now. No one's expecting him to go and
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: beat Freo in a grand final this year, realistically. I
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: don't think. Even the most passionate of Crows fans. It
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: ain't going to happen, team. Our list is not as good.
• 38:26
  Speaker 17: But.
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: They need to beat, you know, the Geelongs, the Melbournes,
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: the Western Bulldogs, the Collingwoods of the world, no doubt,
• 38:32
  Speaker 3: in a final, in that high-pressure environment.
• 38:33
  Speaker 4: I love it.
• 38:34
  Speaker 14: Now, you make perfect sense in it. I guess the
• 38:36
  Speaker 14: question other than that, on top of that is, though,
• 38:39
  Speaker 14: you say the list isn't good enough, and you're right,
• 38:42
  Speaker 14: but at what point does that become, and I know
• 38:44
  Speaker 14: there's a list management position, et cetera, but at what
• 38:46
  Speaker 14: point does that become the coach's responsibility? Why haven't you
• 38:49
  Speaker 14: gone and got a better midfield? Why haven't you gone
• 38:51
  Speaker 14: and made that list better? But you are right. I
• 38:55
  Speaker 14: think talent-wise, you can only... You can only do so
• 38:59
  Speaker 14: much with the players you've got.
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: The biggest thing is I think your depth, like if
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: you look at your depth on a list in your
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: best 22, it explains a lot. How many players of
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: the Adelaide Crows call it worse, six or eight, are
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: playing in those top four sides that we spoke about?
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: Very few, I think.
• 39:13
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: Personally, I think very few.
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: And your bottom six is reflective of your top six,
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: unless your top six are absolutely excellent, which the Adelaide.
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: Crows probably only have two or three of. Yeah, Rankin, Dawson.
• 39:24
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 39:24
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: So, interesting. But if Matthew Nix wins, I think it's
• 39:28
  Speaker 3: keep on keeping on. If he loses... you watch.
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: The Adelaide Crows building at West Lakes will be burnt down.
• 39:35
  Speaker 4: And that's it. It's going to be fever pitch if
• 39:37
  Speaker 4: they lose. Anything else going on in the sporting world? Quickly, Renny?
• 39:40
  Speaker 14: Well, it's, you know, like I said, the Port Best
• 39:42
  Speaker 14: and Fairest tonight. I think Jason Horne France is a
• 39:44
  Speaker 14: big show, isn't he? I think Aaliyah will be up there. So,
• 39:49
  Speaker 14: Zach Butters, clearly, but then he missed a fair bit
• 39:51
  Speaker 14: of footy late. So, I don't think it'll be Zach
• 39:53
  Speaker 14: Butters again. He's won three, I reckon. So, I think
• 39:56
  Speaker 14: it might be a Jason Horne-Frances time. Lionel Messi's announced
• 39:59
  Speaker 14: his retirement from international football as well. So, more than
• 40:02
  Speaker 14: 200 appearances, World Cup. Still going to play club football
• 40:05
  Speaker 14: in America, but... That's a decent story around as well.
• 40:08
  Speaker 7: Thank you, Tommy.
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: Ollie Wines goes around again. Just quickly.
• 40:10
  Speaker 5: Who's that?
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: Ollie Wines. Yeah, and Ollie Wines. Yeah, which means he'll
• 40:14
  Speaker 3: get to 300 games.
• 40:14
  Speaker 4: He's on 292. Yep.
• 40:16
  Speaker 14: That'll be the third power player, I reckon. So we've
• 40:18
  Speaker 14: got Boak, Kane Corns.
• 40:20
  Speaker 7: Yep.
• 40:20
  Speaker 4: And now Ollie Wines.
• 40:21
  Speaker 3: So well done to Ollie.
• 40:22
  Speaker 14: Brownline medalist.
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: Great player.
• 40:24
  Speaker 7: Yep.
• 40:24
  Speaker 5: Well done, Tommy.
• 40:25
  Speaker 4: And great bloke. Good on you, boys.
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: Catch you tomorrow morning. Nine minutes to six before we
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: go to a break. Linda and Hewitt, good morning.
• 40:30
  Speaker 4: Good morning.
• 40:31
  Speaker 8: How are you?
• 40:32
  Speaker 5: Good.
• 40:33
  Speaker 17: That's good. I'm calling up about that Tim guy.
• 40:38
  Speaker 9: Horrible thing to say, that Tim guy.
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: Tim Looker, yes, became a lawyer at the age of 74.
• 40:42
  Speaker 17: Yeah, I went to law school with him. I'm not
• 40:45
  Speaker 17: as impressive as him. I was 47 when I started
• 40:50
  Speaker 17: law school. I started in 2019, but he had already
• 40:54
  Speaker 17: been there for a couple of years. We did a
• 40:56
  Speaker 17: few subjects together. He was an awesome guy. Really lovely
• 41:01
  Speaker 17: man and very memorable. He wasn't the only... Mature age student? Well,
• 41:09
  Speaker 17: at his age, it was another guy. His name escapes me,
• 41:12
  Speaker 17: but they were very memorable people, very inspiring people, and
• 41:19
  Speaker 17: it was really scary going to uni at 47, and
• 41:23
  Speaker 17: to have people like that there just made me feel
• 41:25
  Speaker 17: so much better about it.
• 41:27
  Speaker 4: What made you want to go to uni at the
• 41:28
  Speaker 4: age of 47, Linda?
• 41:30
  Speaker 17: Well, I was accepted to law school when I left
• 41:33
  Speaker 17: high school, and.
• 41:34
  Speaker 9: I took a year off.
• 41:37
  Speaker 12: You know how you.
• 41:38
  Speaker 9: Take that year off, that gap year?
• 41:40
  Speaker 17: And then the gap year lasted 30 years.
• 41:42
  Speaker 10: I never went back.
• 41:44
  Speaker 17: And it's something that I always wanted to do. I
• 41:46
  Speaker 17: had a failed business, so I needed to step in
• 41:49
  Speaker 17: a new direction and went.
• 41:50
  Speaker 12: To law school.
• 41:51
  Speaker 17: And I was admitted as a solicitor in 2024. But struggling,
• 41:58
  Speaker 17: you can't practice until you're employed because you have to
• 42:02
  Speaker 17: be supervised for two years. So that's the one piece
• 42:07
  Speaker 17: of the puzzle I haven't managed to do yet. I'm
• 42:09
  Speaker 17: a prosecutor's assistant at the moment, so I'm on the path. But, yeah,
• 42:13
  Speaker 17: it was just something that I always wanted to do
• 42:16
  Speaker 17: and decided.
• 42:16
  Speaker 12: To do it.
• 42:16
  Speaker 17: But, yeah, not as impressive as 75, but still have
• 42:19
  Speaker 17: no regrets.
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: Linda, that's brilliant. You're not just our park run expert.
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: You are now our legal eagle as well. We will
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: come to you for any legal counsel.
• 42:32
  Speaker 17: I don't have a practising certificate.
• 42:33
  Speaker 8: It doesn't matter.
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: Alex Ward, Tim Downey, move aside. Linda from Hewitt's here
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: for early breakfast.
• 42:39
  Speaker 17: And on park run, I went to Seacliff Esplanade a
• 42:43
  Speaker 17: couple of weeks ago. It was 14 degrees. The sun
• 42:46
  Speaker 17: was out.
• 42:46
  Speaker 10: Running along the beach.
• 42:47
  Speaker 7: It was absolutely awesome.
• 42:48
  Speaker 17: Hubby came.
• 42:49
  Speaker 10: He walked it.
• 42:50
  Speaker 17: Took the dog. Loved it, and then we all frogged
• 42:53
  Speaker 17: on the beach afterwards.
• 42:54
  Speaker 5: Magnificent.
• 42:54
  Speaker 10: You haven't done it yet.
• 42:55
  Speaker 3: You've got to do it to be hooked.
• 42:57
  Speaker 4: Well done, Linda.
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: Sounds fab.
• 42:58
  Speaker 4: Well done. Thank you for that.
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: And don't worry about the formalities or the paperwork getting
• 43:02
  Speaker 3: in the way of legal advice. I give legal advice
• 43:04
  Speaker 3: all the time. I'm not qualified. Don't worry about it, Linda.
• 43:08
  Speaker 4: Six minutes to six.
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: If you've got any stories of what you've picked up
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: later in life or what you'd like to pick up
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: later in life, Linda from Hewitt, going back to law
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: school at 47, we had Tim Looker's story, became a
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: lawyer at 74. So you can jump on the phones,
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: 8223 0000. Will and Stace for 5AA Breakfast coming up

  Speaker 2: Couple on the text, Mandy and the Blue Brothers. Also,
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: I have become a vet nurse at the age of 56.
• 43:46
  Speaker 4: Does that count, Mandy? Yes, of course it counts.
• 43:48
  Speaker 3: For any of you listeners who might be thinking, what
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: the hell's going on? Mandy and the Blue Brothers.
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: So there's Mandy and then the two Blue Heelers.
• 43:54
  Speaker 3: So that's why when the Blue Heelers bark, We bark
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: back at them to say good morning, and then we
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: say hello to Mandy. So that's how that works.
• 44:01
  Speaker 4: Kate in Woodville. Good morning, dear Sam and Ned. I
• 44:04
  Speaker 4: love your show.
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: Please wish Johnny from Port Augusta a happy birthday for yesterday.

  Speaker 3: Oh, well said, Kate from Woodville.
• 44:10
  Speaker 4: Johnny, you're on the show. You didn't let us know.
• 44:12
  Speaker 3: I forgot Timmy Ginniver on the sports show last night remembered,
• 44:16
  Speaker 3: and I've totally slipped me. Happy birthday, Johnny boy.
• 44:18
  Speaker 4: Another one.
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: Almost 70, I've taken up dancing lessons. Want to learn
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: floristry and Japanese cooking.
• 44:25
  Speaker 8: Oh.
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: Well done, Texter, ending in 395. Wow, dancing lessons. What
• 44:31
  Speaker 3: type of dancing are you going to learn?
• 44:32
  Speaker 4: We're doing the tango, the foxtrot, bit of ballroom.
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, what style of dance, I wonder? Dance, dance, dance.
• 44:38
  Speaker 4: Dance.
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: Jazz or tap or something. There'll be something going on.
• 44:42
  Speaker 3: Well done to you.
• 44:43
  Speaker 4: Ned, ever been stung by a bee or a wasp?
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, have. Yeah, definitely.
• 44:47
  Speaker 4: Allergic or just no good?
• 44:48
  Speaker 3: Not allergic, but still troubling.
• 44:50
  Speaker 4: Well, you don't want to be stung by some wasps
• 44:51
  Speaker 4: in the UK right now.
• 44:53
  Speaker 18: Aggressive wasps terrorising parts of the English countryside. And no,
• 44:57
  Speaker 18: it's not the lads down at the pub. The British
• 45:00
  Speaker 18: Pest Control Association has issued an alert. Wasps are feasting
• 45:04
  Speaker 18: on rotting fruit in parts of the country.
• 45:06
  Speaker 4: Becoming tipsy and angry.
• 45:08
  Speaker 18: They say wasps are more likely to sting when drunk,
• 45:11
  Speaker 18: and now at the end of their summer, some are
• 45:14
  Speaker 18: jobless because the queen has stopped producing.
• 45:16
  Speaker 4: Eggs, so there's little else to do.
• 45:18
  Speaker 18: Brits are being told they're best left alone when they're
• 45:21
  Speaker 18: like this, and they might swarm if they feel they're
• 45:24
  Speaker 18: being threatened. Ultimately, they say if they're in a high-traffic area,
• 45:28
  Speaker 18: they might die. need to be removed.
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: Drunk, jobless wasps who get angry and sting. You wonder
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: why I don't like leaving South Australia. Going to the
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: Eyre Peninsula, if I head too far further west, I
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: get nervous. Seriously, what is going on in this crazy world?
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: Drunk wasps? My word.
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: Just before we go, people are asking for you to
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: recap your top five. risky things to do in 2026.
• 45:52
  Speaker 17: Are they?
• 45:53
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: I can do that.
• 45:54
  Speaker 6: All right.
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: I'll be really, really quick. Nice work. Number five, buying
• 45:56
  Speaker 3: a secondhand European car. No good. Number four, clicking a
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: link on a text or taking a call from an
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: unknown number. Don't do that, team. That's number four. Number three,
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: biggest risk in 2026, online shopping. Oh, it just comes
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: all wrong.
• 46:10
  Speaker 4: You just don't like it, do you?
• 46:11
  Speaker 3: It doesn't arrive and it's just a disaster. Would never
• 46:14
  Speaker 3: even try it. Number two, Europe holiday via the Middle East. That's...
• 46:19
  Speaker 3: It's not, you know, total disaster territory, but it is,
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: you know, not without risk. I think one of our
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: texts said that.
• 46:25
  Speaker 4: We did have a text. I don't think we got
• 46:27
  Speaker 4: to it.
• 46:27
  Speaker 3: I got there going past Doha.
• 46:29
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 46:30
  Speaker 3: Well done to that text.
• 46:31
  Speaker 4: And number one?
• 46:32
  Speaker 3: Misgendering or making comments about the specifics of a baby.
• 46:35
  Speaker 3: Don't try it. Trust me. Do not comment on the
• 46:38
  Speaker 3: size of the cheeks or anything like that, and do
• 46:41
  Speaker 3: not have a crack at misgendering it. Well, you're not
• 46:44
  Speaker 3: going to attempt to misgender it, are you? But just
• 46:45
  Speaker 3: don't bother, seriously. And bonus point, another risk in 2026,
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: running a legitimate convenience store.
• 46:52
  Speaker 4: There it is for those people who are asking for it.
• 46:53
  Speaker 4: You will be firebombed even.
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: If you only sell legitimate tobacco and milkshakes.
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: Ned's top tips for 2026. Stick around. Stacey and Will,
• 47:00
