- 2:29Speaker 4: It's a real bastard because I used to just be
- 2:30Speaker 4: able to smoke rollies and it was all good. But
- 2:32Speaker 4: now even if I smoke rollies, I just get inflamed
- 2:35Speaker 4: and snotty and coffee.

- 2:43Speaker 4: a peck thirty.
- 2:46Speaker 3: Yeah, it's fucking insane.
- 2:48Speaker 1: Eh.
- 2:49Speaker 5: The last yeah, the last time I bought a fifty
- 2:51Speaker 5: grand pack, it was like one hundred and fifty seven
- 2:54Speaker 5: dollars and I was like, fucking hell.
- 2:57Speaker 1: How many dos is that? Eighty four picks?
- 3:03Speaker 5: It would probably last me about two weeks.
- 3:06Speaker 2: Still so expensive. It's like eighty bucks a week. Yeah,
- 3:09Speaker 2: that's fucked well, it would have not last you that long.
- 3:14Speaker 2: A thirty gram you're lucky if it last year a week.
- 3:17Speaker 4: Yeah, if you're making tena day, because I think it's
- 3:20Speaker 4: roughly a pack and a half two pecks a thirty
- 3:22Speaker 4: degree yeah, yeah, and you're on day one of the things.
- 3:26Speaker 3: Because our coffee machines shat the beer? Is it?
- 3:29Speaker 1: Mate?
- 3:30Speaker 3: Fuck?
- 3:30Speaker 5: Here he goes And it's really interesting, isn't it. You know,
- 3:34Speaker 5: It's like it's a pretty good machine. It's worth about
- 3:37Speaker 5: nine hundred bucks.
- 3:38Speaker 2: Wow, mine's about fifteen hundred right, yours for free? I
- 3:43Speaker 2: certainly did, and it's a really good machine.
- 3:46Speaker 5: But when it comes to repairing something like that, everyone's
- 3:49Speaker 5: just fucking don't worry about it, and it's like, I'm
- 3:52Speaker 5: not gonna just fucking biffit. It's probably literally just a
- 3:57Speaker 5: little tube or something that's leave ring.
- 4:00Speaker 1: It started making be a rubber ring exactly, and it
- 4:04Speaker 1: can't be there hard to replace. I'm sure that if
- 4:06Speaker 1: you pull there, take it out to his she.
- 4:11Speaker 3: But with it, it's fucking terrible.
- 4:14Speaker 4: It is. Remember when there used to be a bit
- 4:16Speaker 4: of pride man totally. There used to be TV repairman.
- 4:19Speaker 4: They came around your house and they'd fix it. And
- 4:21Speaker 4: people build a product and they wanted it to last
- 4:23Speaker 4: a lifetime. Now they want to last two years. So
- 4:25Speaker 4: you buy another one.
- 4:26Speaker 2: My granddad, my dad's dead dead dead, Oh dad dead.
- 4:34Speaker 2: He made a lifting a living. Dad made a lifting.
- 4:40Speaker 2: I weave it spaced out for something. I don't know why.
- 4:43Speaker 2: But he made a living repairing appliances. Yes, and so
- 4:46Speaker 2: he was like yeah, and his back sheet was full
- 4:48Speaker 2: of like old elements off toasters and fridger and just.
- 4:50Speaker 1: A bit and you how to fix them all. How good?
- 4:53Speaker 3: I love that ship the big shirt wee days from
- 4:58Speaker 3: four on Radio Hdach.
- 5:02Speaker 2: Big Show podcast.
- 5:03Speaker 3: But this is the point I was making.
- 5:05Speaker 5: It was like, you know, the people that make it
- 5:07Speaker 5: are like, oh, don't worry about it, just get a
- 5:08Speaker 5: new one. And there was like we found about two
- 5:12Speaker 5: places around Auckland that fix coffee machines.
- 5:15Speaker 3: And it's like.
- 5:16Speaker 4: We've got a we've got a brevel like a neutrable thing,
- 5:21Speaker 4: but it's not a neutrable, it's a breve or something. Rather,
- 5:23Speaker 4: we've had it for seven or eight years. Yeah, it's
- 5:26Speaker 4: fucking unbelievable, amazing. We had to get a neutrable a
- 5:31Speaker 4: different thing. That costs us god knows how many hundreds
- 5:33Speaker 4: of dollars because we couldn't find replacement cups. They've stopped
- 5:39Speaker 4: making the cups. You couldn't get the cups anywhere. Yes,
- 5:41Speaker 4: and the wife couldn't get the cup thingy out because
- 5:44Speaker 4: it would just get stuck because it's just old, just fuck.
- 5:47Speaker 4: So you get a new one. The motor and everything
- 5:48Speaker 4: is completely fine. Garbage check it in the bed.
- 5:53Speaker 3: It is.
- 5:54Speaker 2: There's a mindset in the ocean too though, that like
- 5:57Speaker 2: if you sell something that's really good but breaks quid,
- 6:00Speaker 2: then they have to buy another one as long as
- 6:01Speaker 2: it's good.
- 6:02Speaker 1: That's exactly what it is. And then ship.
- 6:04Speaker 5: Well, this is a really interesting thing about the coffee
- 6:06Speaker 5: machine we had.
- 6:07Speaker 3: We had another.
- 6:07Speaker 5: We had exactly the same one before and after three
- 6:13Speaker 5: years and this is the same has happened again. After
- 6:16Speaker 5: three years it did this. So we took it back
- 6:19Speaker 5: and we was under warranty or something and said, ah,
- 6:21Speaker 5: we'll just give you another one. We were like, sweet, okay,
- 6:24Speaker 5: So they gave us a new one three years down
- 6:26Speaker 5: the track again it's done exactly the same thing, and
- 6:29Speaker 5: it's like, we'll fix it for fox.
- 6:31Speaker 1: Is't interesting.
- 6:32Speaker 2: They'd rather give you a nine hundred dollars coffee machine
- 6:35Speaker 2: for free than replace a twenty cent part.
- 6:38Speaker 1: Yes, it's crazy, crazy shit. It's PC gone mad.
- 6:42Speaker 3: It's PC gone mad.
- 6:43Speaker 2: Magain, it's woke mafia ship it is And funny you
- 6:47Speaker 2: know who's responsible, libtads?
- 6:55Speaker 1: We fix it? I found bringing animal fix it.
- 6:58Speaker 5: Bring it, No, we've it's already been delivered to another place.
- 7:01Speaker 3: But you know I found this.
- 7:03Speaker 5: I was cleaning out my sort of side shelves and
- 7:05Speaker 5: ship which I haven't delved into for about twenty years.
- 7:08Speaker 5: And I found something for my granddad's bowls days. Oh,
- 7:11Speaker 5: and it was it's kind of like as balls. No,
- 7:14Speaker 5: it wasn't it. I've got his balls. I actually do
- 7:16Speaker 5: have his balls, right. But it was this sort of
- 7:20Speaker 5: little trophy thing made of silver and stuff, and it
- 7:24Speaker 5: had a little certificate with it, right, which basically said
- 7:28Speaker 5: this workmanship will last for over one hundred years. This
- 7:31Speaker 5: is what you do to maintain it. Blah blah blah
- 7:34Speaker 5: blah blah. No, how good is that? You fucking to
- 7:39Speaker 5: last forever? Cost more, used to cost more, but last longer,
- 7:42Speaker 5: last forever. But people used to put things on layboy,
- 7:45Speaker 5: which isn't so much a thing now where you get it.
- 7:47Speaker 5: You didn't get it yet to pay it off and
- 7:49Speaker 5: then you get it lay away. Because there never used
- 7:51Speaker 5: to be credit. Yeah, there was no such thing as credit.
- 7:54Speaker 5: You had to you could, you could. There was only
- 7:57Speaker 5: the existing money in the world. Yes, now there's more
- 8:00Speaker 5: money that doesn't exist than actually exists. Yes, you know
- 8:02Speaker 5: what I'm saying. Yes I do know the libtads, I tell.
- 8:09Speaker 3: You, But seriously, I mean what you're granded. That's great.
- 8:13Speaker 5: Yeah, I love the idea of because I have such
- 8:16Speaker 5: massive admiration for people that fit ship. Yeah, you know,
- 8:20Speaker 5: and and even just having people around my house and
- 8:22Speaker 5: I'm just going, what a fucking backbone? You whack that out?
- 8:25Speaker 5: You saw this back you do this, you fucking pack
- 8:28Speaker 5: it out.
- 8:29Speaker 2: It's also very satisfying thing though, like, yes, my my
- 8:32Speaker 2: wife and her friends think that.
- 8:34Speaker 1: She thinks that. Come on, Jason, I was like halfway
- 8:37Speaker 1: three young there, man, Now it's derailed.
- 8:40Speaker 3: Well you're saying.
- 8:43Speaker 2: No, her friends like, oh, your husband's so handy like me.
- 8:46Speaker 2: It's like I'm actually not that handy, but all of
- 8:49Speaker 2: their Yeah, they just don't even try to like hang
- 8:52Speaker 2: up a picture frame or put up a floating shell.
- 8:55Speaker 1: Or anything like that.
- 8:55Speaker 2: It's like it's actually really simple to do. Well, you
- 8:57Speaker 2: just got to keep on hiving it correct, don't you
- 9:00Speaker 2: suck it up a few times. But then you'll be like, Okay,
- 9:02Speaker 2: now I know how to do it.
- 9:04Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 9:05Speaker 5: I mean I'll hang a picture, but I couldn't build
- 9:09Speaker 5: floating shells.
- 9:10Speaker 1: You don't have to build them. They build the.
- 9:12Speaker 5: Coming yeah, because wow, we've got to in our kitchen, right, Yeah,
- 9:18Speaker 5: but the guy that put them in there, he said
- 9:21Speaker 5: they are a fucking prick of the thing to do.
- 9:22Speaker 1: What is that?
- 9:23Speaker 3: I don't know. What I've also found out is that
- 9:27Speaker 3: our house is just all out of whack.
- 9:28Speaker 2: See that'll be it, because it needs to be flush
- 9:30Speaker 2: against the wall. Yeah, and you put like a bracket
- 9:32Speaker 2: thing and then this floating shelf slides onto it. Yes,
- 9:34Speaker 2: as long as you got it in the stud there.
