- 0:39Speaker 1: Okay, So I lied to the d is how much? Yeah,
- 0:42Speaker 1: light to the dentist. I feel like it's a lie
- 0:44Speaker 1: that most people would say. You hear that on the
- 0:46Speaker 1: podcast very surely.
- 0:48Speaker 2: And are you allowed to use the picture station toilet
- 0:51Speaker 2: if you're not purchasing any goods? Well you're about to
- 0:53Speaker 2: find out now. I was at the picture station yesterday.
- 0:55Speaker 2: Now I want to front foot this and say I've
- 0:57Speaker 2: done this hundreds of times okay, and that has gone
- 1:01Speaker 2: and it's been a huge bug bear in our work
- 1:03Speaker 2: marriage being voice is that whenever we drive to a
- 1:05Speaker 2: petrol station, I'm like, oh, I need to use the lavatory.
- 1:08Speaker 2: I'm going to go and use the toilet. He's like,
- 1:09Speaker 2: are you buying anything?
- 1:10Speaker 1: And I'm like, no, no, you know, nothing just goes through.
- 1:14Speaker 2: Use the thought. Now. Ben then gets guilty and he's like, oh,
- 1:16Speaker 2: I'm going to go and buy. So he then buys
- 1:18Speaker 2: something and it buys like a little pack of mixed nuts,
- 1:20Speaker 2: one of those Cranberry trio Johns the Mother Nature ones.
- 1:23Speaker 2: Some guilt purchases for my toilet usage.
- 1:26Speaker 1: I do feel like that's if you're going to use
- 1:28Speaker 1: someone's facilities, you need to you need to buy something.
- 1:31Speaker 2: How arrogon are you just rolling on up walking them
- 1:33Speaker 2: through a petrol stations different different toilet.
- 1:38Speaker 3: I agree with John, Oh, yeah, you're right. I think
- 1:40Speaker 3: petrol stations a bit.
- 1:42Speaker 2: Have you walked inside a petrol station toilet last? Have
- 1:44Speaker 2: they even been in there in twelve years? They don't
- 1:45Speaker 2: care what's going on in there. Well, that's what I thought.
- 1:47Speaker 3: At least sometimes they do that cleaning chart and you
- 1:50Speaker 3: look at it and you're like, there was like five
- 1:51Speaker 3: days ago.
- 1:54Speaker 2: That was pre COVID.
- 1:55Speaker 4: Like, if you're going to do that, don't put a
- 1:57Speaker 4: chart up.
- 1:58Speaker 2: I was at the county yesterday pay for peture, and
- 2:01Speaker 2: the reason I don't have a problem was using the
- 2:02Speaker 2: picture station toilets. There's an industry I've given so much
- 2:05Speaker 2: too over the years, mainly money.
- 2:07Speaker 5: Uh.
- 2:08Speaker 2: The guy walked out of the laboratories, so then the
- 2:11Speaker 2: person behind the counter was like, excuse me, are you
- 2:13Speaker 2: going to pay for anything? And I was like, oh,
- 2:15Speaker 2: spicy content. I feel like a public telling off there.
- 2:20Speaker 2: And then the gentleman, to his credit, was like, well
- 2:22Speaker 2: I hadn't planned on it, and it just walked down right.
- 2:27Speaker 2: So I didn't realize this was the thing that the
- 2:28Speaker 2: petrol industry, that you're not allowed to use the facilities
- 2:31Speaker 2: unless you're buying something.
- 2:32Speaker 1: I don't know if the cafes.
- 2:35Speaker 3: Small cafe, sure, So why is it okay with the
- 2:38Speaker 3: petrol because they've got money?
- 2:40Speaker 2: Multi has got lots of money, But you're rolling there
- 2:44Speaker 2: and use their toilet. They don't need you to.
- 2:46Speaker 3: Buy a packet of nuts.
- 2:47Speaker 2: They're good.
- 2:48Speaker 4: They're good.
- 2:49Speaker 2: Don't worry about the petrol game.
- 2:51Speaker 1: We've been making money here to we all right, people
- 2:53Speaker 1: are coming off the street.
- 2:56Speaker 2: Some very reedy people would go into the toilet. Next
- 2:59Speaker 2: you're in the door, do all sorts of stuff in
- 3:01Speaker 2: the came a meeting place the furious purposes I found
- 3:07Speaker 2: out the hard one I was, we're here, now.
- 3:13Speaker 4: Shut the door.
- 3:14Speaker 2: Fut this out? Can you okay? So obviously the small cafe,
- 3:19Speaker 2: small business.
- 3:20Speaker 1: No, no, you'll lump everyone and together. You can't just
- 3:23Speaker 1: you know, you can't just say it's what's good for one?
- 3:25Speaker 2: Okay? Can you use a business toilet? I think it
- 3:28Speaker 2: depends on that. The I think it depends well, but
- 3:30Speaker 2: how do we know that? How does that station? Ronald
- 3:33Speaker 2: does not care.
- 3:35Speaker 6: The heads that John and Ben podcast.
- 3:38Speaker 3: Did you know these posters and the women's toilet looking
- 3:41Speaker 3: for your sock?
- 3:42Speaker 2: We looked at last night.
- 3:43Speaker 3: No stone onto toilet, I see your sick.
- 3:45Speaker 2: John had to put posters up everywhere. You see it everywhere.
- 3:49Speaker 2: I took that you get me to do everywhere. But anyway,
- 3:52Speaker 2: you sent me a mission, my friend and I'll pull
- 3:54Speaker 2: their stuff everywhere. But you couldn't find a sopper while

- 4:08Speaker 2: And we feel like it's only fish you couldn't find yourself.

- 25:25Speaker 1: when you're running through traffic, people will know right now
- 25:28Speaker 1: the traffic. I was like looking at the you know,
- 25:30Speaker 1: the GPS, the maps, and I was like, oh, we're
- 25:32Speaker 1: going to be We're going to be ten minutes, ten
- 25:34Speaker 1: minutes later.
- 25:35Speaker 2: I see that as a challenge. I see like when
- 25:37Speaker 2: you shave minutes off Google Maps.
- 25:39Speaker 4: Or afford back, that feels good.
- 25:40Speaker 1: Yeah, but ten minutes is a lot. That's a lot.
- 25:43Speaker 3: And I'll maybe get two minutes.
- 25:45Speaker 1: And I got closer to the time and and then
- 25:48Speaker 1: it was a middle turn. I was like, I'll better
- 25:49Speaker 1: call the dentists and say, hey, we're running late. And
- 25:52Speaker 1: so I put it on speakerphone in the kara daughter
- 25:54Speaker 1: seeing here sitting next to me, and it's still where ten.
- 25:56Speaker 2: Minutes to go.
- 25:57Speaker 1: So I'm like, you know, it's eleven twelve minutes to go.
- 25:59Speaker 1: To be honest, I'm like, hey, we're just traffic. L
- 26:02Speaker 1: We're running five minutes late. They're like, oh, okay, okay, yeah,
- 26:06Speaker 1: we're just on the way a bit of traffic. They're

- 26:17Speaker 1: There was some traffic, but we're running, you know. I
- 26:19Speaker 1: said five minutes late. The gp is still said twelve minutes.
- 26:22Speaker 1: And then my daughter's like, you don't mean that.
- 26:24Speaker 2: Why did you say that. She's not saying this on
- 26:26Speaker 2: the caller, thank you, I've ung up the things. She's like,
- 26:28Speaker 2: you said we're five minutes away.
- 26:30Speaker 1: It's like you could see it's she could see as well,
- 26:32Speaker 1: we're twelve minutes away.
- 26:33Speaker 3: You're going to get this seven minutes after your late time.
- 26:36Speaker 1: And I was like, yeah, when I say that, that's
- 26:38Speaker 1: what we all say. And they put the press on
- 26:40Speaker 1: the phone nose. I'm not five minutes away.
- 26:42Speaker 2: The international rule, the unspoken rule, and they say five
- 26:45Speaker 2: minutes is probably fifteen. Yeah, and she was like, what
- 26:48Speaker 2: did you just say you're twelve minutes away.
- 26:49Speaker 1: I'm like, it doesn't sound I say to her. She's like,
- 26:53Speaker 1: just say you're twelve minutes away. That's what it sees,
- 26:55Speaker 1: and then you don't have to stress about Yeah.
- 26:57Speaker 2: Five minutes by as you're fifteen, I reckon yeah, ten yeah,
- 27:02Speaker 2: twenty boys before five minutes.
- 27:05Speaker 1: Everyone knows if you say I'm just five minutes away
- 27:07Speaker 1: or I'm just parking, they know you're going to be a.
- 27:09Speaker 11: Little bit longer, right, I no want ever in the
- 27:12Speaker 11: history of saying I'm five minutes away.
- 27:16Speaker 1: And I was like, they know that, and it was
- 27:18Speaker 1: very confused, much like you're confused right now.
- 27:20Speaker 4: Big, Yeah, that stresses me out.
- 27:22Speaker 2: You don't like being late, be late as well. But
- 27:25Speaker 2: I was like, well, what was my option? They neither.
- 27:29Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 27:29Speaker 3: I've told them I was twelve minutes away. Yeah, it's away,

- 27:52Speaker 1: I felt they were having a busy day as well,
- 27:54Speaker 1: so I felt like it was fine. If anything, it
- 27:56Speaker 1: was could have been another fifteen Yeah, everyone was fine
- 27:59Speaker 1: if I got them, But I was like, five minutes
- 28:00Speaker 1: doesn't mean five minutes.
- 28:01Speaker 2: And everyone knows that, right, five minutes away. But whenever
- 28:05Speaker 2: you're waiting for an appointment and you're sitting there for

- 33:28Speaker 2: Them this morning. Aunt sock related stories injuries, they can
- 33:32Speaker 2: be your best friend and your wearst enemy. So can they?
- 33:34Speaker 2: Do you remember when if you had like a non
- 33:38Speaker 2: carpeted hallway or something, you could use that as a
- 33:41Speaker 2: sliding rink and get some good run on some good
- 33:43Speaker 2: sliding pace. To the problem is once you start the slide,
- 33:46Speaker 2: you can't pull out of it like you just have
- 33:48Speaker 2: to let momentum stop you and slowly wear off. I
- 33:51Speaker 2: did this once and my Nana was staying Winifred, God
- 33:54Speaker 2: bless her. She walked out of the spare room at
- 33:56Speaker 2: the time. I was mid slide heat on collision with Grandma.
- 34:00Speaker 3: He took out Winterfred.
- 34:01Speaker 2: Yeah, well I held on to it like she didn't
- 34:03Speaker 2: fall onto the ground, but it was.
- 34:05Speaker 1: It did catch you, my surprise. So sock related stories,
- 34:08Speaker 1: have had a sock injury? Have you had to pull
- 34:10Speaker 1: a sock out of your dogs behind like I did?
- 34:12Speaker 1: After you ate one of the kids socks when it
- 34:14Speaker 1: was little he had an extra tail. When I sort
- 34:16Speaker 1: of help the dog out with that one. So yeah, that's.
- 34:19Speaker 2: How did did the dog like move in the opposite direction?
- 34:23Speaker 2: Like the force was going the opposite way? Was he
- 34:25Speaker 2: helping you? Like, yeah, I wouldn't mind getting this out,
- 34:27Speaker 2: and so he knew which way to move.
- 34:29Speaker 1: He was just sort of he was a bit confused
- 34:30Speaker 1: about what I was doing.
- 34:31Speaker 3: Yeah, he turned around and was like, excuse me.
- 34:34Speaker 1: I don't get involved in that part of the process.
- 34:37Speaker 2: He's got a glove on. He's coming up to me.
- 34:39Speaker 4: What's going on, isn't I don't consent.
- 34:43Speaker 1: Just helping you out here, And I think afterwards he
- 34:45Speaker 1: was quite relieved. He probably had no idea what was
- 34:46Speaker 1: going on back there, to be honest. So the fourth
- 34:49Speaker 1: him and you got a new sock.
- 34:54Speaker 2: We might not get a single call.
- 34:55Speaker 3: There related like injuries as well.
- 34:58Speaker 2: Yeah, Actually do remember get in quite a substantial amount
- 35:01Speaker 2: of trouble when I took some of my father's gold
- 35:06Speaker 2: tops and I turned them into sock puppets for a
- 35:09Speaker 2: school project. John Boy not heavy about that. So anything
- 35:13Speaker 2: sock related, we'll take it.
- 35:14Speaker 1: We might not get a single call, but if you
- 35:16Speaker 1: want some of our socks that could come with some
- 35:18Speaker 1: exclusive perks.
- 35:20Speaker 2: Next year's working on.

- 35:24Speaker 2: In addition, not many pears. No, we've got every pair
- 35:28Speaker 2: that has a spear, so they're unlosable socks. It feels
- 35:30Speaker 2: like what Elon Musk did to motoring, we're doing to
- 35:33Speaker 2: the sock industry, revolutionizing it, losing maybe over selling it
- 35:38Speaker 2: a touch there. But if you'd like a pair of

- 43:21Speaker 1: in the studio. Thanks so much hanging out.
- 43:23Speaker 2: Thank you now.
- 43:24Speaker 1: I was just thinking very exciting Aukland f C, but
- 43:27Speaker 1: thinking how much work would go and I was last night,
- 43:29Speaker 1: I was thinking, you're coming up with ten colors, cap logos,
- 43:32Speaker 1: We're going to play sponsors this so much?
- 43:35Speaker 2: How long have you been working on this?
- 43:37Speaker 17: It's it's been a really short time. So it's it's
- 43:39Speaker 17: an amazing honor, Like it's a super privileged to be
- 43:42Speaker 17: able to do this, right, to set up a football club.
- 43:44Speaker 17: But I only joined so we got the license last November.
- 43:47Speaker 17: I got the job in November. First thing that you
- 43:50Speaker 17: have to do is you've got to hire the football side, right,
- 43:52Speaker 17: so we got a football director and head coaching. So
- 43:55Speaker 17: once you've got kind of faith in them to your point,
- 43:58Speaker 17: you've then got to start building an identity, right. You
- 44:00Speaker 17: got to get so what's the badge, what's the colors?
- 44:02Speaker 17: You know, we're majority owned by a guy called Bill Foley,
- 44:06Speaker 17: who's a very successful US businessman.
- 44:08Speaker 2: He'll see some sports teams around the world, he does.
- 44:11Speaker 17: Yeah, absolutely, So he's got Vegas Golden Knights and which
- 44:14Speaker 17: an ice hockey team he's got. He's got a great
- 44:16Speaker 17: story about them. So he bought the license for that
- 44:18Speaker 17: in twenty seventeen. And everyone in ice hockey, they all
- 44:22Speaker 17: play it up in Canada and up in the Northern States, right,
- 44:24Speaker 17: and so they were all like, you know, what are
- 44:26Speaker 17: you doing taking ice to the desert. Nobody plays ice
- 44:28Speaker 17: hockey out there. They really ripped him for it, right.
- 44:30Speaker 2: And well, the conditions aren't ice outside. I guess you
- 44:35Speaker 2: need a serious freezer.
- 44:36Speaker 17: But he got he got riled up about it, right,
- 44:38Speaker 17: so he was like, I'm not having this, and he
- 44:41Speaker 17: came out public and said I'll make the finals and
- 44:43Speaker 17: three and I'll win it in six in terms of
- 44:45Speaker 17: the Stanley Cup, and you know there's teams that are
- 44:47Speaker 17: in that league that haven't won it in sixty years,
- 44:49Speaker 17: so it's a big statement. They started competing in his
- 44:52Speaker 17: first year. He made it all the way through to
- 44:54Speaker 17: the Standard Cup finals. All but one year of those
- 44:56Speaker 17: six years he made the finals and then in the
- 44:59Speaker 17: sixth year he won the Stanley Cup. It's not a
- 45:02Speaker 17: bad effort.
- 45:04Speaker 2: Yeah, he was telling the team how have made some
- 45:06Speaker 2: big claims much so you know someone like that back
- 45:11Speaker 2: in the club and behind you. He's not here to
- 45:13Speaker 2: miss around. Is he putting those sort of demands on you?
- 45:15Speaker 2: I want to I want a.
- 45:16Speaker 17: Victory and thankfully not publicly, right, but he is. He's
- 45:21Speaker 17: one of the most competitive people I know. And then
- 45:22Speaker 17: and then we've also got some great local owners too.
- 45:24Speaker 17: We've got Anna Mobray and Allie Williams both. Yeah, they
- 45:28Speaker 17: know how to succeed that they're driven people. And we
- 45:30Speaker 17: just recently announced three ex All Whites have joined the
- 45:33Speaker 17: club as well in terms of part of our ownership group.
- 45:35Speaker 17: So Winston Reid, who's arguably one of New Zealand's both
- 45:38Speaker 17: successful footballers, former West Ham captain from New Zealand captain
- 45:42Speaker 17: Tim Brown of All Whites and then now more recently
- 45:45Speaker 17: All Birds Fame and No Hecky as well, who was Yeah.
- 45:49Speaker 17: So that's a great combination of people, right.
- 45:51Speaker 2: It is wild to think you've done this in under
- 45:54Speaker 2: a year. Colors.
- 45:58Speaker 1: I'm actually painted the house and still colors for that
- 46:02Speaker 1: sports team.
- 46:04Speaker 2: Nick Bicker with US CEO of New Zealand's newest football
- 46:08Speaker 2: club and the A League are the Auckland f C.
- 46:10Speaker 2: You know, you've had your to do list with the club,
- 46:11Speaker 2: getting the club off the ground, and we have kind
- 46:13Speaker 2: of colors and logos, colors, goal posts.
- 46:16Speaker 16: You get some goal posts we did, you're ticking stuff
- 46:21Speaker 16: and as a show and as a station, we've tasked
- 46:24Speaker 16: ourselves we're going to come up with a celebratory move
- 46:27Speaker 16: for the club that all the fans.
- 46:29Speaker 2: Do to the Phoenix. They're taking the tops off, spinning
- 46:31Speaker 2: around a little bit more class than taking your Okay,
- 46:36Speaker 2: I like it great, and so we were going to
- 46:40Speaker 2: try and design a move you and what.
- 46:42Speaker 1: Do you think you've seen in the past that's worked well,
- 46:43Speaker 1: Because I know you've worked in the UK and Australia
- 46:46Speaker 1: with football as well.
- 46:47Speaker 2: Have you seen anything that well, there's a great one.
- 46:49Speaker 17: So I worked at Man City and they used to
- 46:52Speaker 17: do the Posnan with the whole stadium. I mean, it
- 46:56Speaker 17: sounds a bit weird, but they turned the back on
- 46:57Speaker 17: the game, but the whole stadium turn around with their
- 46:59Speaker 17: back LINKR and they just jump up in unison.
- 47:01Speaker 2: It's worth google. Well, Megan, you actually count with a
- 47:09Speaker 2: really good one.
- 47:10Speaker 3: I did because nights I was going to draw inspiration
- 47:15Speaker 3: off when you get knighted, so you bow down and
- 47:17Speaker 3: you get the sword first on the right. So I
- 47:19Speaker 3: thought you could bow you hit and tap your right shoulder.
- 47:21Speaker 2: After score a goal, you get knighted. Yes, being you
- 47:25Speaker 2: something else you wanted to.
- 47:26Speaker 1: I was watching Steph Curry, one of my favorite basketballers,
- 47:28Speaker 1: and sometimes he does the night Night where he does
- 47:31Speaker 1: the sort of go to sleep post. So I thought
- 47:33Speaker 1: maybe you could do it. So they score a goal
- 47:35Speaker 1: and everyone does the good nights hold on.
- 47:37Speaker 17: So I've got confusing. I thought you're talking about the fans.
- 47:39Speaker 17: We're talk about the players, the.
- 47:41Speaker 1: Fans and the place someone everyone goes out around the
- 47:46Speaker 1: ground and everyone goes to sleep.
- 47:47Speaker 2: You're putting the opposition to sleep.
- 47:49Speaker 1: We're just we're workshopping these things.
- 47:54Speaker 2: What we're working on at the moment, so we'll repitch
- 47:56Speaker 2: the winning one to you later on. I like it.
- 47:58Speaker 2: I like it.
- 47:59Speaker 1: It's very exciting. October nineteenth the first game.
- 48:02Speaker 17: We want to see as many Orcans who can support
- 48:04Speaker 17: us in those first two weekends, they'll be fantastic, very exciting.
- 48:06Speaker 2: Yeah, congratulations on everything and we look forward to it.
- 48:09Speaker 6: The hits that John and Ben podcasts.
- 48:12Speaker 1: A lot of traffic in the mornings that builds up
- 48:14Speaker 1: and all over the country, particularly in the weekend in
- 48:18Speaker 1: Auckland's New Mall right, Oh, how about the airport.
- 48:21Speaker 3: I was going out that way and I didn't know
- 48:23Speaker 3: why there was gridlock traffic in the weekend. I was like,
- 48:25Speaker 3: what is happening? But everyone was going shopping.
- 48:28Speaker 2: Wouldn't it be depressing to think if you add it
- 48:30Speaker 2: all up over a lifetime, how long you spend your
- 48:32Speaker 2: sitting in the car, don't I reckon? It's probablybout nineteen
- 48:35Speaker 2: and a half years or something.
- 48:36Speaker 1: Wild well, particularly people taking long long trips.
- 48:39Speaker 2: Yeah, but people at work that take hours in the morning.
- 48:42Speaker 2: I used to it with some of the drive from
- 48:44Speaker 2: the two hour drive from Coramandal every day back and
- 48:48Speaker 2: for four hour round trip in the car every day. Wow,
- 48:52Speaker 2: those eyes of bonus. I guess of spending four hours
- 48:55Speaker 2: alone with yourself, you can think about stuff, think about life,
- 48:58Speaker 2: listen to radio.
- 49:00Speaker 3: When I was doing like more normal person hours, it
- 49:04Speaker 3: took me. There was one day it took me two
- 49:05Speaker 3: and a half hours to get to work. What takes
- 49:07Speaker 3: me at the moment? Twenty one minutes? Took me two
- 49:10Speaker 3: and a half hours just because of traffic.
- 49:13Speaker 2: You're in a deeper, meaningful relationship with the motorway, then,
- 49:17Speaker 2: aren't you. Yeah, you spend more time, more intimate with
- 49:20Speaker 2: your car on the road than you are with your family.

- 51:16Speaker 1: A nice photo of the rhino I saw in today's
- 51:18Speaker 1: paper from the Auckland Zoo. It's pregnant, the white rhino
- 51:22Speaker 1: giving birth in November. Then I read underneath the caption
- 51:25Speaker 1: it's fourteen months pregnant. So fourteen months, so rhinos and
- 51:29Speaker 1: then a bit more research. Sixteen to eighteen months is
- 51:32Speaker 1: how long they have a paper in elephants?
- 51:35Speaker 2: Two years? Two years elephants.
- 51:38Speaker 3: Are pregnant between you going to tell me not to complain?
- 51:39Speaker 2: No, no, no at all, because yeah, I was actually
- 51:43Speaker 2: just thinking about that.
- 51:44Speaker 4: But no, not my place in your face? Yeah, like,
- 51:47Speaker 4: what are you complaining about?
- 51:48Speaker 2: Mate? Not for me to say, not my business, stay
- 51:51Speaker 2: in your lane. But that's impressive. Two years too, and
- 51:53Speaker 2: lugging around a baby elephant would be a lot of different. Yeah.
- 51:57Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought maybe it was a typo from the paper,
- 51:59Speaker 1: but no, it's a the rhinos. Yeah, fourteen months bringing.
- 52:02Speaker 2: No wonder they look so depressed. The poor elephants move
- 52:05Speaker 2: so slowly. We're just, after speaking, moving slowly. The longest
- 52:08Speaker 2: commutes to work. Oh eight hundred hits telephone number, every
- 52:12Speaker 2: caller we get on here today. When's a pair of

- 53:17Speaker 2: Jeez, you must be exhorted, like sitting in driving. Concentrating
- 53:20Speaker 2: on driving does take it out of you. You must be
