Speaker 2: It is six half to five. Great to have you
0:20
Speaker 2: on the show this morning. A new free trade deal
0:23
Speaker 2: has been announced overnight with the Golf States. But how
0:26
Speaker 2: big is it for our exporters. We'll look at that
0:28
Speaker 2: before six Vincent mcavinie and the UK Europe. The Spanish flooding.
0:33
Speaker 2: Why weren't they warned more than one hundred people have
0:35
Speaker 2: lost their lives there, and we'll ask Tony Johnson about
0:39
Speaker 2: Damien mackenzie losing the number ten Jersey. Plus this news
0:42
Speaker 2: of even the group. What happened off field? At seven
0:45
Speaker 2: after five? Now the agenda and it is Friday, the
0:49
Speaker 2: first of November. North Korea has fired an intercontinental ballistic
0:53
Speaker 2: missile in its longest ever recorded test flight, flying more
0:57
Speaker 2: than eighty minutes.
0:58
Speaker 3: Defense officials in Saul say that North Korea seems to
1:03
Speaker 3: want to develop weapons that fly farther and higher, and
1:07
Speaker 3: according to them, the task was possibly aimed at increasing
1:11
Speaker 3: the PLOD of the missileone.
1:13
Speaker 2: We'll tell you more about that in just a second.
1:15
Speaker 2: The Multi Party MP ticket to Ferris has said this
1:19
Speaker 2: to members of the public who are submitting on a
1:22
Speaker 2: bill and.
1:23
Speaker 4: As will move on to a submission applesy on Law Society.
1:29
Speaker 4: Thank you first comments, mister Ferris.
1:32
Speaker 2: What you couldn't quite hear there was him saying effing
1:35
Speaker 2: racist to one of the submitter is a former Act
1:37
Speaker 2: Party MP. He's been obviously told, well, we'll be told off.
1:42
Speaker 2: There's been a complaint. Laid shares and big tech companies
1:45
Speaker 2: in the United States have fallen overnight. Is they warn
1:48
Speaker 2: a return on investment or your ROI on your AI
1:51
Speaker 2: might take a while. Both Microsoft and Meta have said
1:55
Speaker 2: that expenses are growing due to AI investment, which could
1:58
Speaker 2: put pressure on profitability, and Microsoft had met it down
2:01
Speaker 2: four percent, Amazon down one point four. Radioheads Tom York
2:05
Speaker 2: walked off stage during an exchange with the Gaza protest
2:08
Speaker 2: during his Melbourne show. You're not here, say that right, don't.
2:14
Speaker 1: Stand there, Michael Carron, imre.
2:23
Speaker 2: Rememberbody's name?
2:24
Speaker 5: Come on?
2:30
Speaker 3: Yeah.
2:30
Speaker 2: The crowd wasn't very happy with that. He did walk off,
2:34
Speaker 2: but then later came back and finished performing Meanwhile to
2:37
Speaker 2: the actual conflict. Israelis and US officials are meeting today
2:41
Speaker 2: for talks on a possible delta end the Lebanon conflict. Meanwhile,
2:44
Speaker 2: in Gaza, Hamas has rejected a short term peace deal.
2:50
Speaker 2: Get ahead of the headlines.
2:51
Speaker 6: Ryan Bridge you for twenty twenty four on early edition
2:55
Speaker 6: with Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture Beds and a Planet
2:58
Speaker 6: Store news talk, said.
3:00
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what I think about Mike King just
3:02
Speaker 2: after just before the news at five point thirty as well.
3:04
Speaker 2: Nine two nine two is the number to text, would
3:06
Speaker 2: love to know what you're thinking about that situation. A
3:09
Speaker 2: lot of coverage in the last twelve hours North Korea.
3:13
Speaker 2: So basically what's happening is there's an election on in
3:15
Speaker 2: the United States. Donald Trump's getting a lot of air time,
3:18
Speaker 2: Carmen Harris getting a lot of air time, and little
3:21
Speaker 2: Kim is jumping up and down saying, Hey, don't forget
3:24
Speaker 2: about me over here. I've got nuclear weapons, and I've
3:28
Speaker 2: got ICBMs, I've got intercontinental ballistic missiles. Don't forget about
3:33
Speaker 2: me down here, people. So he fires this missile. It's
3:36
Speaker 2: in the here for eighty six minutes, which to me,
3:38
Speaker 2: seems like a hell of a long time. I mean,
3:40
Speaker 2: that's as long as that's a movie. You know, you
3:43
Speaker 2: put a movie on, you watch the entire thing gets
3:45
Speaker 2: to the end, and the missile finally hits its target.
3:48
Speaker 2: Can you not do a lot in that eighty minutes,
3:50
Speaker 2: like bring it down out of the skies? I would
3:51
Speaker 2: have thought so. Anyway, Japan reckons that the US that
3:55
Speaker 2: North Korea can hit the US mainland with one of
3:58
Speaker 2: these that I've never done it before, IBB. And this
4:00
Speaker 2: one only went about one thousand kilometers and it's eighty
4:03
Speaker 2: six minutes. The last one that they fired went for
4:07
Speaker 2: about seventy minutes. This was in December last year, and
4:10
Speaker 2: again went for about a thousand kilometers. Now to get
4:13
Speaker 2: from North Korea to the United States ten thousand kilometers,
4:19
Speaker 2: So apparently what they're doing is just testing that they
4:22
Speaker 2: can go further. But they're just testing to see how
4:25
Speaker 2: big a payload and warhead they can put on this thing. Basically,
4:29
Speaker 2: how much they can weigh it down and then work
4:33
Speaker 2: out how far they can go if they want to
4:35
Speaker 2: really go for it and hit the US mainland, which
4:37
Speaker 2: is obviously the big fear. So interestingly, with this particular exchange,
4:43
Speaker 2: they fired at a sharply raised angle and reached as
4:47
Speaker 2: high as seven thousand kilometers. It would have covered a
4:51
Speaker 2: further distance if it was launched horizontally, So they're obviously
4:54
Speaker 2: going up, not across, and checking how heavy the thing
4:59
Speaker 2: can be, needs to be, and how far they might
5:00
Speaker 2: be able to get across once they finally decide to
5:02
Speaker 2: do so. In fact, that's what happens. So there you
5:05
Speaker 2: go to the updale on North Korea this morning. It's
5:07
Speaker 2: basically just come wrong in with its little short man syndrome,
5:10
Speaker 2: feeling a bit left out of what's happening in the States.
5:12
Speaker 2: Eleven after five Bryan Bridge. Also this morning, we have
5:19
Speaker 2: October Credit Indicator. This is centric start and basically the
5:23
Speaker 2: numbers are confirming the headlines and this is depressing to
5:26
Speaker 2: read to you on a Friday morning. But credit defaults
5:28
Speaker 2: are up. This is for businesses. Credit defaults up sixteen
5:32
Speaker 2: percent across the board. The worst hit transport and construction.
5:36
Speaker 2: Those surprises there. Company liquidations up twenty five percent year
5:40
Speaker 2: on year, the highest monthly total in ten years. Unsurprisingly,
5:45
Speaker 2: construction again hit worst, Hospitality thirty four percent increase in
5:50
Speaker 2: company liquidations and I think looking at what happened on
5:53
Speaker 2: Labour weekend when it comes to HOSPO wasn't particularly busy.
5:57
Speaker 2: I don't think we're going to have a particularly busy
5:58
Speaker 2: December New Year period either. But that's just me. Twelve
6:02
Speaker 2: minutes half to five news Talk, said B. Back in
6:05
Speaker 2: a second, let's a job.
6:13
Speaker 6: News and views you trust to start your day. It's
6:16
Speaker 6: early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's furniture,
6:20
Speaker 6: beds and a flying store.
6:21
Speaker 1: News Talk said B.
6:23
Speaker 2: A bit of a broccoli warning for you this morning
6:24
Speaker 2: as well. At fourteen after five. So this is Horticulture
6:28
Speaker 2: New Zealand's put out a press release and they are
6:31
Speaker 2: worried about the government's reviewing freshwater regulations. They obviously want
6:35
Speaker 2: them to be loosened. It's looking at nitrogen runoff and
6:39
Speaker 2: the previous labor government had introduced standards which they say
6:44
Speaker 2: was going to limit how much they could produce and
6:47
Speaker 2: therefore affect price. So what they did is when it
6:49
Speaker 2: got a report done by the Nzier and they have
6:53
Speaker 2: found that let's take broccoli for example, they reckon the
6:56
Speaker 2: price could go as high as twenty seven dollars a kilo,
6:59
Speaker 2: or about nine dollars ahead if veggie production is cut.
7:04
Speaker 2: They say that cutting vegie production twenty percent, which is
7:09
Speaker 2: what would have to happen and vegetable supply, would push
7:12
Speaker 2: vegie prices aren't by at least twenty percent and potentially
7:16
Speaker 2: buy as much as one hundred percent. Now, if it
7:17
Speaker 2: sounds like scare mongering, you can probably take a grain
7:20
Speaker 2: of scare mongering salt with this. But interestingly, eighty percent
7:24
Speaker 2: of all veggies grown here are actually eaten by us.
7:26
Speaker 2: We eat eighty percent of what we grow. And they
7:29
Speaker 2: want to basically want to carve out horticulture New Zealand.
7:32
Speaker 2: They want to carve out for your commercial domestic growers
7:37
Speaker 2: so that they are exempt from any regulations that might
7:40
Speaker 2: come into force. Why Well, because veggies are good for
7:42
Speaker 2: us to eat. It is sixteen after five Ray and Bridge, right,
7:46
Speaker 2: we're going to talk about menopause now, So for those
7:49
Speaker 2: of you who aren't interested in menopause, well maybe you'll
7:52
Speaker 2: learn something a step forward for women with menopause. From today,
7:56
Speaker 2: Farmak is funding the hormone replacement therapy medication ISEL. In May,
8:02
Speaker 2: there was a shortage of the hormone therapyal replacement pinches
8:05
Speaker 2: due to an increase in demand. So now the funding
8:07
Speaker 2: means that thousands of Kibi women will have access to
8:09
Speaker 2: the gel that can help manage some of the symptoms
8:12
Speaker 2: of menopause. Doctor Linda Deere is a clinical director of
8:15
Speaker 2: men A doctor and she's with us this morning. Good morning,
8:19
Speaker 2: Good morning. Tell me how effective is this estrogel.
8:24
Speaker 5: It's wonderful stuff. So yeah, estrogel contains what we call
8:29
Speaker 5: body identical estradial, which is the specific type of estrogen
8:35
Speaker 5: that women's ovaries make, and that's the stuff that goes
8:38
Speaker 5: a bit bonkers and then drops around menopause. And that's
8:44
Speaker 5: why women can get so many different symptoms because that
8:46
Speaker 5: hormone talks to a lot of different parts of women's
8:49
Speaker 5: bodies and brains, and estragel is a way to put
8:52
Speaker 5: that hormone back into a women's body in a nice, reliable,
8:57
Speaker 5: stable level every day.
9:00
Speaker 2: So did do you have to take it for evething?
9:03
Speaker 5: Now? Most women don't take HRT or we're supposed to
9:07
Speaker 5: call MHT now menopausal hormone therapy. Most women don't take
9:12
Speaker 5: it forever. It just gets them through the rough bit
9:15
Speaker 5: as their body kind of adapts in the background. So
9:18
Speaker 5: i'd say, average five to seven years. Women take it four,
9:21
Speaker 5: but there are some women who take it forever, and
9:23
Speaker 5: we actually think that's okay for some women to do that.
9:26
Speaker 2: What does it feel like having minopause?
9:30
Speaker 5: So, menopause itself is when a woman's periods stop, and
9:34
Speaker 5: that happens because her ovaries run out of eggs and
9:38
Speaker 5: stop making hormones. But before that happens, there's another phase
9:42
Speaker 5: called perimenopause, which is often really what we're talking about
9:46
Speaker 5: when we say menopause. That's a bit before the ovaries
9:50
Speaker 5: fully stop and they actually just get tired and erratic,
9:54
Speaker 5: and it's a bit like puberty, but the other way around,
9:57
Speaker 5: so your ovaries are shutting down instead of starting up.
10:00
Speaker 5: And I can go on for quite a few years,
10:02
Speaker 5: and it actually starts in a woman's forties perimenopause, so
10:06
Speaker 5: there can be symptoms in that time that are often
10:09
Speaker 5: not recognized as hormonal. And then yeah, menopause happens, as
10:14
Speaker 5: in a woman has her final eber period and then
10:17
Speaker 5: everything after that is what we call postmenopause, and women
10:21
Speaker 5: can continue to have symptoms after their periods stopped as well,
10:25
Speaker 5: because the low levels of hormones can cause problems, so
10:29
Speaker 5: women might need help at any point in that kind
10:32
Speaker 5: of whole journey that they moved through.
10:35
Speaker 2: I've got lots of friends. I've got lots of friends
10:37
Speaker 2: in this particular age breakeet, and they swear by this gel.
10:41
Speaker 2: Is this is a question from a man. We run
10:44
Speaker 2: out of testosterone at some point and we start testosterone
10:46
Speaker 2: starts reducing. Do they have pictures for men for testosterone replacement?
10:50
Speaker 7: Do you know.
10:52
Speaker 5: You've got gel? You still have a patch? Yeah, I
10:55
Speaker 5: think the patch has been discontinued now, but there's a
10:58
Speaker 5: testosterone gel. And it's true men's testosterone does decline. It
11:04
Speaker 5: doesn't dramatically quit on you in the way that estrogen
11:09
Speaker 5: dramatically quits on us. So it's because it's so gradual
11:12
Speaker 5: for guys mostly that doesn't cause problems, but you're right,
11:17
Speaker 5: for some men it does. And there is there is
11:20
Speaker 5: a testosterone deficiency that men can suffer with, and you know,
11:24
Speaker 5: measuring levels can tell a man if that's happened for him.
11:28
Speaker 5: And it's also interesting that men's testosterones these days are
11:32
Speaker 5: lower than they used to be, so there has been
11:35
Speaker 5: this decline. So even a man of the same age
11:37
Speaker 5: now has a lower testosterone level than twenty years ago.
11:42
Speaker 2: Interesting though interesting though that it drops off at different rates,
11:45
Speaker 2: doesn't it for men and women? And we have to
11:47
Speaker 2: leave at the doctor lunder Deer, thank you very much
11:49
Speaker 2: for coming on the program. Clinical director of mena doctor
11:52
Speaker 2: talking about the fact that this istragel is now available
11:55
Speaker 2: funded by Phimeek from today. It is twenty minutes. I
11:59
Speaker 2: was told that you lose one percent of your testosterone
12:02
Speaker 2: every year after the age of thirty. I don't know
12:05
Speaker 2: if that's true or not, but basically the thing is
12:08
Speaker 2: you need to get into shape. You need to get
12:11
Speaker 2: as mostly as you possibly can while you've still got
12:14
Speaker 2: the testosterone before you lose it all and there's no
12:17
Speaker 2: hope of getting MUSCLI. That's what I've been told. Twenty
12:20
Speaker 2: after five.
12:22
Speaker 6: Ryan Bridge new for twenty twenty four on early edition
12:26
Speaker 6: with Smith City, New Zealand's furniture beds and a playing store.
12:30
Speaker 2: News Talk said b twenty three after five news Talk said,
12:32
Speaker 2: be right, the All Blacks are facing England. That took
12:35
Speaker 2: in him this weekend and the team was named overnight
12:37
Speaker 2: Boden Barrett back in the number ten Jersey largely different
12:40
Speaker 2: squad completely changed other than three players basically from the
12:44
Speaker 2: team that we played against Japan. Tony Johnson's rugby commentators
12:48
Speaker 2: with US Live this morning, Tony, good morning, to your right.
12:52
Speaker 2: A couple of things to whip through. First of all,
12:54
Speaker 2: that number ten significant.
12:56
Speaker 7: Yeah, it is because mcdamien McKenzie's been giving a fairly
13:01
Speaker 7: long leash this year. He's just been a bit too erratic,
13:04
Speaker 7: brilliant at his best, but just tending to be I
13:08
Speaker 7: think almost part of this the All Black sort of
13:12
Speaker 7: falling off the cliff a little bit in the second
13:14
Speaker 7: half as they've been doing Barrett. I don't think it
13:17
Speaker 7: was their original intention to go back to him, but
13:20
Speaker 7: his experience will be invaluable, perhaps just a little more consistent,
13:26
Speaker 7: and so they put him together with his brother, so
13:30
Speaker 7: it's a key thing. The other one, too, is half back.
13:33
Speaker 7: I think we expected TJ Peinader, perhaps with his experience,
13:37
Speaker 7: to be part of the mix. It's been quite bold.
13:39
Speaker 7: They start with royguard, sorry, they start with Atma Royguard
13:42
Speaker 7: off the bench. I think that's a really great move.
13:45
Speaker 7: And you know there's a couple of other selections there.
13:49
Speaker 7: I suspect Ethan the group might be injured, otherwise he
13:52
Speaker 7: would have been in the front row.
13:53
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was going to answer about that. Is that
13:56
Speaker 2: nothing nefarious off the field?
13:58
Speaker 7: No, I don't think so. I presume it's some sort
14:01
Speaker 7: of injury thing. I haven't seen the comments around it.
14:05
Speaker 7: I've just seen the team Ryan, but I would have
14:09
Speaker 7: to be an injury.
14:09
Speaker 2: Do you think, well Damian McKenzie will ever get back
14:11
Speaker 2: to go back to number ten or do you think
14:13
Speaker 2: that's sort of.
14:15
Speaker 7: I think he will, yeah, but I think he's just
14:18
Speaker 7: got to show a bit more consistency. And as I say,
14:23
Speaker 7: we saw it in the game against Japan where the
14:25
Speaker 7: all backs in the second quarter were just playing brilliantly
14:29
Speaker 7: and then it dropped away in the second half, and
14:32
Speaker 7: you know, for one reason or another, he just seemed
14:35
Speaker 7: to be symptomatic of that. He's got so much talent,
14:40
Speaker 7: But I just think in a test match like this,
14:42
Speaker 7: a very high op game test, I think they've felt
14:45
Speaker 7: to continue with it might have just been a bit
14:47
Speaker 7: of a risk. But he'll come off the bench and
14:48
Speaker 7: I think that what might be where he can provide
14:51
Speaker 7: some really good.
14:51
Speaker 2: Value a big game before a big hacker.
14:56
Speaker 7: I mean, there's three certainties in life. Really, isn't death
15:00
Speaker 7: taxes and cacophony of complaining in the British media about
15:06
Speaker 7: the Harker ahead of an all black England test at Twickenhim.
15:08
Speaker 7: I mean, you could set your clock to it, couldn't.
15:10
Speaker 7: It comes up every time. It's the one part of
15:14
Speaker 7: the world where it comes up to this degree. And
15:15
Speaker 7: I suspect I think it portrays and rather deep rooted
15:19
Speaker 7: colonial lattitudes at times. But how seriously should we take it?
15:23
Speaker 7: How seriously should we take the comments of Stephen Jones,
15:26
Speaker 7: a guy who sort of, you know, I think, seems
15:29
Speaker 7: to have this deep seated hatred of the all blacks,
15:31
Speaker 7: which influences the way he writes. And also the guy
15:35
Speaker 7: who sparked at Marla, you know, a guy who fired
15:38
Speaker 7: this off on his way out the door exiting the
15:41
Speaker 7: England camp for whatever reason, so he's not actually going
15:43
Speaker 7: to front up in the test. A guy who was
15:45
Speaker 7: once fined twenty thousand pounds and banned for two games
15:49
Speaker 7: for making an ethnical insult against one of the Welsh
15:53
Speaker 7: players called him a gypsy boy because of the player's background,
15:56
Speaker 7: all the while the crowd in the background singing a
15:59
Speaker 7: song about slow. I'm not sure why we should take
16:01
Speaker 7: it seriously. But we do delight in taking outrage and these.
16:06
Speaker 2: Things, and so we've taken the bait hook Lions thinker,
16:10
Speaker 2: haven't we? Tony Jolson, Rugby commentator. It's twenty six after
16:13
Speaker 2: five News Talks HEB.
16:15
Speaker 6: The early edition full the Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered
16:19
Speaker 6: by News TALKSB twenty.
16:21
Speaker 2: Eight after five year on News TALKSB. Now I have
16:23
Speaker 2: it's my mistake. It's my fault. I have run out
16:26
Speaker 2: of time to tell you my thoughts on Mike King.
16:28
Speaker 2: We'll do that after the news which is coming your
16:30
Speaker 2: way in just a few minutes. Also this morning, we
16:33
Speaker 2: are talking this new trade deal that's been signed overnight,
16:36
Speaker 2: well announced overnight, I should say, with the Golf States.
16:39
Speaker 2: We'll look at exactly what it means for exporters. Apparently
16:42
Speaker 2: the average tariff right for the Golf States is only
16:45
Speaker 2: five percent. So is this going to be a game changer?
16:48
Speaker 2: Is this going to be another China FTA moment? We'll
16:51
Speaker 2: ask an expert. Just before six o'clock, Vincent mcavney out
16:55
Speaker 2: of the UK and Europe on the Spanish flooding. So
16:58
Speaker 2: much more to get to, plus lots of messages on
17:00
Speaker 2: Mike King coming in already, and our controversial decision to
17:04
Speaker 2: do a menopause interview early this morning. Certainly find some
17:08
Speaker 2: people up though someone is asking for the name of
17:10
Speaker 2: the gel, so there you go. Leo News is next.
17:22
Speaker 6: The news you need this morning and the in depth
17:24
Speaker 6: analysis early edition with Ryan Bridge and smit City New
17:28
Speaker 6: Zealand's Furniture Beds and a flying Store News Talk sid.

17:44
Speaker 2: beat England at Twickenham on the weekend. You heard it
17:47
Speaker 2: here first. Great to have you on the show this
17:49
Speaker 2: Friday morning before six o'clock. A former New Zealand trade
17:52
Speaker 2: negotiator on the Middle East Deal, plus Vincent mcavnie on
17:55
Speaker 2: the Spanish flooding out of the UK and Europe this morning.
17:59
Speaker 2: Right though, Mike King, you cannot have it both ways
18:03
Speaker 2: with Mike King. You can't say you care about and
18:06
Speaker 2: want to hear from people with so called lived experience
18:11
Speaker 2: and then dismiss them when you don't like what they say.
18:14
Speaker 2: Everyone knows he doesn't have a PhD in mental health studies.
18:18
Speaker 2: Settled down Sally he looked to me to simply be
18:21
Speaker 2: riffing his opinion. So what props to the Mental Health
18:24
Speaker 2: Foundation and to the Minister, who've both handled their responses
18:27
Speaker 2: pretty well. I reckon giving kudos to Mike for his
18:30
Speaker 2: incredible work with Kiwi kids while also pointing out the
18:34
Speaker 2: fact there's research out there that doesn't support his worldview.
18:37
Speaker 2: Is there really a big deal here outside of Labor
18:40
Speaker 2: trying to score a hit job because they're pissed that
18:42
Speaker 2: King bashed them at the last election. Also, what is
18:47
Speaker 2: really worse for mental health in this country Mike King
18:50
Speaker 2: going on a booze rant or Labor spending one point
18:53
Speaker 2: eight billion dollars in delivering not a single new acute
18:56
Speaker 2: mental health bed in five years. What's to use the
19:00
Speaker 2: terms that they love more dangerous for our vulnerable youth
19:05
Speaker 2: and Tamadiki. It's not Mike King, That's for sure. We
19:08
Speaker 2: can have all the experts and the researchers and the
19:11
Speaker 2: academics and the politicians in the world writing essay after
19:14
Speaker 2: essay at great expense explaining our mental health problems, and
19:18
Speaker 2: it's fine that they do, but what they will never
19:21
Speaker 2: deliver is anything like the practical grassroots counseling sessions and
19:27
Speaker 2: awareness that Mike King has for our kids for years.
19:33
Speaker 2: We're going to our reporters around the country, our color
19:35
Speaker 2: practice in an Eden first, and on this issue, the
19:38
Speaker 2: big licensing decision from the district Alcohol Licensing Committee this
19:42
Speaker 2: morning column. It's right to kick this all off, isn't it?
19:46
Speaker 8: They decide today whether it's a grand a license to
19:49
Speaker 8: this fashion show are raising money for suicide awareness, which
19:53
Speaker 8: has caused so much debate. Saturday Nights events been organized
19:56
Speaker 8: by an Otago student at a local shopping mall. Police
19:59
Speaker 8: say approved this license would be an appropriate and harmful
20:02
Speaker 8: given the link between suicide and alcohol that we've spoken
20:06
Speaker 8: to the organizer, she says she's been overwhelmed with all
20:08
Speaker 8: of this publicity. She says she will front the hearing
20:11
Speaker 8: this morning to fight for her event and for other
20:14
Speaker 8: organizers in the future. She says, though the show will
20:17
Speaker 8: go on either way. This hearing's at nine o'clock this morning.
20:20
Speaker 8: All right, your weather today, rain developing, possibly heavy and
20:24
Speaker 8: thundery with hail this afternoon high fifteen, nice one, Come
20:27
Speaker 8: and thank you Claire's and christ you Tay Claire.
20:29
Speaker 2: The Youth Hub is being opened down there.
20:33
Speaker 9: Yes, Well, the first phase of our Youth Hub is
20:35
Speaker 9: officially open. This is the twenty one million dollar building.
20:38
Speaker 9: It's designed to provide some wrap around services for about
20:43
Speaker 9: a dozen different youth providers here in christ Church. This
20:46
Speaker 9: hub is the first of its kind in the country.
20:48
Speaker 9: It is the brainchild of longtime health advocate to Dame
20:51
Speaker 9: Sue Bagshaw, the Health Youth Hub Trust chair, says it's
20:56
Speaker 9: just the beginning of much more to come. There is
20:58
Speaker 9: a supported housing wing which will open early in the
21:01
Speaker 9: new year. Dame Sue is hopeful this is about giving
21:04
Speaker 9: young people a safe space to connect in person with
21:06
Speaker 9: their peers, as well as with some nearby support services
21:09
Speaker 9: we needed.
21:10
Speaker 2: I hope it goes well. How's your weather today.
21:12
Speaker 9: Clip, A little cloudy to start, there is the chance
21:15
Speaker 9: of a shower later today. Northwesterly's turning southwest and a
21:18
Speaker 9: high of twenty two.
21:20
Speaker 2: Have a great weekend. Max is in Wellington this morning. Max,
21:24
Speaker 2: Good morning, You've got good vibes ahead of a football derby. Yeah,
21:28
Speaker 2: that's right.
21:29
Speaker 10: I'll certainly be there the Phoenix versus Auckland FC tomorrow.
21:33
Speaker 10: There have been a couple of stories this week, particularly
21:35
Speaker 10: an item on one news warning of potential fan violence.
21:39
Speaker 10: We looked into it seems like a bit of a
21:40
Speaker 10: beat up that's not part of our sporting culture. No, absolutely,
21:44
Speaker 10: no indications tomorrow's game could turn ugly. Five o'clock kickoff,
21:48
Speaker 10: so a great time for families to turn out. What
21:50
Speaker 10: it is is a wonderful, wonderful occasion for football fans
21:53
Speaker 10: in this country, the first professional derby. We spoke to
21:57
Speaker 10: Phoenix general manager David Dome. He's expecting roughly eighteen to
22:01
Speaker 10: twenty thousand people. Great for Sky Stadium, both teams making
22:05
Speaker 10: strong starts football wise, adding that little bit extra always
22:09
Speaker 10: want to see a good game. Several hundred Auckland fans
22:12
Speaker 10: and away end, but far more expected sprinkled throughout the crowd.
22:16
Speaker 10: There are pre match meetups arranged in the city a
22:20
Speaker 10: day a lot of people have been looking forward to
22:21
Speaker 10: for some time.
22:22
Speaker 2: I dun'b question, but what's a football derby? What's the
22:24
Speaker 2: difference between a derby and just a game?
22:26
Speaker 10: A derby is essentially a sort of a rivalry game
22:28
Speaker 10: between two usually local teams, so it adds a bit
22:32
Speaker 10: of spice to it.
22:33
Speaker 2: So it's just a game. Well yeah, but you know.
22:38
Speaker 10: In British terms, it would be Manchester United versus Manchester City,
22:41
Speaker 10: you know, a city derby. I'm not sure I can
22:45
Speaker 10: encourage you any better than that.
22:46
Speaker 2: Is that maybe that's where the violence thing came from.
22:49
Speaker 2: That we're know it's going to kick off like it
22:51
Speaker 2: does over there.
22:52
Speaker 10: Well, what was interesting is that these threats weren't even
22:55
Speaker 10: specifically referenced. I mean, maybe someone's made the odd comment
22:58
Speaker 10: on Reddit trying to be a troll or fortius. I
23:00
Speaker 10: don't know, but everyone we've spoken to there's there's really
23:04
Speaker 10: no serious risk of that at this point.
23:06
Speaker 7: LA.
23:07
Speaker 2: Well, that's good to hear. How's your weather max for
23:09
Speaker 2: this derby.
23:10
Speaker 10: Mostly cloudy, stronger northerly, seventeen in the city.
23:14
Speaker 2: Brilliant. All right, thank you very much. Nevas an Auklin
23:17
Speaker 2: all can Transport stepping up. It's fight against potholes.
23:19
Speaker 11: Potholes, Yes, making a pothole promise. Are you a believer?
23:23
Speaker 11: So what's happening is that they're going to repair at
23:25
Speaker 11: ninety five percent of them, this is on the arterial
23:28
Speaker 11: and regional road network within twenty four hours of them
23:32
Speaker 11: being reported. That's what they're saying. They'll be fixed within
23:35
Speaker 11: five days. On all other sealed roads, so this is
23:38
Speaker 11: the same target that NZTA is committed to. This is
23:42
Speaker 11: on all state highway. So the AA says, look, this
23:45
Speaker 11: is great to have so much focus on this issue
23:47
Speaker 11: here and obviously it's going to be music to the
23:50
Speaker 11: ears where a whole lot of Auckland drivers. So let's
23:53
Speaker 11: see if they do it.
23:54
Speaker 2: Great news, grain news. Although I do know they say
23:56
Speaker 2: ninety five percent, so any pothole that's not fixed, they
23:59
Speaker 2: can say it's part of the five percent. We'll get
24:02
Speaker 2: there eventually. How's our weather today.
24:04
Speaker 11: Mainly five We've just got isolated morning showers. Orphans high
24:07
Speaker 11: today twenty brilliant.
24:08
Speaker 2: Thank you very much, Neva. Great to see you. Somebody
24:11
Speaker 2: has text and saying that they enjoyed listening to what
24:15
Speaker 2: I had to say about Mike King, but pointing out
24:17
Speaker 2: it's gumboot Friday today, which I had just forgotten so
24:20
Speaker 2: and all of the drama. So please, if you have
24:23
Speaker 2: a bit of spare cash, do donate to Gumboot Friday. Also,
24:26
Speaker 2: somebody was asking about the menopause gel that we interviewed
24:29
Speaker 2: about start of the program, the name of the gel
24:32
Speaker 2: because the man says, my wife has terrible menopause, and
24:34
Speaker 2: I would like to get the estra gel to that
24:37
Speaker 2: gentleman who text in. It's seventeen to six news talk, said.
24:40
Speaker 6: B International correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance, Peace of
24:45
Speaker 6: mind for New Zealand business.
24:48
Speaker 2: In details on the trade deal with the Gold States
24:50
Speaker 2: coming away in just a second, right now, Vincent macavi
24:52
Speaker 2: any a UK europe correspondent. Vincent. The death toll still
24:56
Speaker 2: rising from this funding in Spain.
24:59
Speaker 12: Yeah, the death toll is now up to one hundred
25:02
Speaker 12: and fifty eight people with we understand it. One hundreds
25:05
Speaker 12: more still missing. This has been a remarkable and tragic event,
25:10
Speaker 12: about a year's worth of rainfall coming down in just
25:14
Speaker 12: eight hours in the Valencia region. It has caused widespread devastation.
25:20
Speaker 12: You really should look at the photos. I mean this
25:22
Speaker 12: was completely you know they were expecting bad rain, but
25:25
Speaker 12: nothing like this. It's destroyed roads and homes, buildings, It's
25:28
Speaker 12: taken out bridges and highways. It is utterly devastating and
25:33
Speaker 12: the Spanish Prime Minister has been visiting the scene today
25:36
Speaker 12: promising all kinds of support. There is EU wide support
25:39
Speaker 12: coming in for this region and sadly it feels like
25:42
Speaker 12: this death Holl. I mean, just looking at these pictures,
25:44
Speaker 12: the number of vehicles sort of stashed up and washed
25:47
Speaker 12: away in this people were just caught completely on the
25:49
Speaker 12: hop It feels like the death Holl will sadly continue
25:52
Speaker 12: to rise.
25:52
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like somebody who has picked up a box
25:56
Speaker 2: full of cars and just tipped them on a straight
25:58
Speaker 2: It's frightening to look at a lot of people angry
26:00
Speaker 2: about the lack of preparedness. You know, by the time
26:03
Speaker 2: they got the warnings, the flooding had already started.
26:07
Speaker 12: Yeah, that's right, And I mean they're from listening to
26:10
Speaker 12: interviews with people on the ground. You know, there had
26:12
Speaker 12: been a severe drought in this region of Spain for
26:15
Speaker 12: many months. The ground was completely sort of hard and dry,
26:19
Speaker 12: so this water had nowhere to go. It couldn't seep
26:21
Speaker 12: into the earth, so it has all just gathered so quickly.
26:25
Speaker 12: And I think there are questions now as to why.
26:27
Speaker 12: You know, there were warnings ahead of the rainfall that
26:30
Speaker 12: there would be strong rainfall, but I think the reactions
26:33
Speaker 12: this rainfall was going along, I mean, you know, there
26:35
Speaker 12: should have been a bit more perhaps, I think people
26:38
Speaker 12: are saying of a response after the first sort of
26:40
Speaker 12: two three hours of how heavy this rain was, to
26:43
Speaker 12: alert people to get off the roads and get to
26:45
Speaker 12: safe higher ground if possible.
26:47
Speaker 2: Thanks so much for your time this morning. That's Vincent
26:49
Speaker 2: meca Any, a UK europe correspondent, just gone twelve minutes
26:51
Speaker 2: away from six Brian Bridge. Great news for qwe exporders
26:56
Speaker 2: this morning. We've signed an FTA with the six nation
26:59
Speaker 2: Golf Operation Council. That's the saudiast uae Q, eight Bahrain,
27:03
Speaker 2: Qatar and Oman. Together they will become our seventh largest
27:08
Speaker 2: export destination by value. As a result of this exchange,
27:14
Speaker 2: largely dairy and meat exports will benefit. Charles Finney is
27:17
Speaker 2: a former New Zealand trade negotiator. He's with us this morning.
27:20
Speaker 2: By the way, duty free access for ninety nine percent
27:23
Speaker 2: of our exports over ten years. This when combined with
27:27
Speaker 2: the recent deal we did with the UAE. We're going
27:30
Speaker 2: to Charles Finny now, who is with us live. Charles,
27:32
Speaker 2: Good morning, Good morning Ryan. Is this a good deal?
27:36
Speaker 7: Yeah? I think it's very good. Obviously we haven't seen
27:39
Speaker 7: the full detail yet, but as you've just been saying,
27:42
Speaker 7: ninety nine percent of our exports free of duty within
27:47
Speaker 7: ten years and about fifty percent if you combine this
27:50
Speaker 7: with the UAE deal. It was pronounced recently we will
27:54
Speaker 7: be free within a year. So that's really good news.
27:58
Speaker 7: I suspect, as you say, meat and dairy will be
28:02
Speaker 7: the initial beneficiaries, but it'll be wider benefits and also
28:07
Speaker 7: good news. I think cross services exporters.
28:09
Speaker 2: Do you talk to some of our exporters, they say, actually,
28:11
Speaker 2: Paris are pretty low here, roughly five percent. Is it
28:14
Speaker 2: going to be It's not going to be a big
28:15
Speaker 2: game changer like a China FTA.
28:18
Speaker 7: Oh no, it's not that. I think it does increase
28:21
Speaker 7: certainty and allow people to look again in more detail
28:27
Speaker 7: at this market. I think the timing couldn't be better.
28:30
Speaker 7: We've got some slowing of the Chinese economy, some slight
28:34
Speaker 7: reduction in export demand there, and we've got real uncertainty
28:39
Speaker 7: being caused by the US presidential election. Whoever wins, it's
28:43
Speaker 7: going to be more difficult I think for New Zealand
28:45
Speaker 7: exporters going to that market, and there'll be some other
28:49
Speaker 7: implications around the world. So you're having a market as
28:53
Speaker 7: big as the GCC. I think, particularly for meat exporters
29:00
Speaker 7: without duties, is going to be really powerful.
29:02
Speaker 2: How much of the hold up over this because obviously
29:04
Speaker 2: McLay has been instrumental in getting this deal over the line.
29:08
Speaker 2: How much of the hold up was to do with
29:10
Speaker 2: that whole Saudi live meat export saga.
29:14
Speaker 7: Well, obviously that was a complication early on. It's fantastic
29:17
Speaker 7: that's behind us, and well done top of McLay for
29:20
Speaker 7: putting it behind us.
29:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, goodbye and we won't miss you. You mentioned
29:26
Speaker 2: the need to put our eggs into lots of different baskets.
29:29
Speaker 2: Are we doing enough of that?
29:32
Speaker 7: I think in general yes, but there are some product
29:35
Speaker 7: areas where we're still very heavily dependant on one market,
29:41
Speaker 7: I think for a whole range of reasons, not just politics.
29:44
Speaker 7: It's very wise to have a range of options available,
29:49
Speaker 7: and this free trade agreement is just another new opportunity.
29:54
Speaker 7: And we've done the UK and EU in recent times,
30:00
Speaker 7: the UAE deal now GCC added to our existing network.
30:05
Speaker 7: We're in a very powerful position and we need to
30:07
Speaker 7: have this flexibility available to us because of the global
30:12
Speaker 7: uncertainty that is inevitable after the election in the US.
30:17
Speaker 2: Well, that's that the do you worry FTAs are going
30:19
Speaker 2: out of fashion? You know, as these protectionist policies come
30:22
Speaker 2: in from more protectionists leaders, prime ministers and presidents around
30:26
Speaker 2: the world.
30:28
Speaker 7: I think the real threat is at a global level,
30:31
Speaker 7: and so there is a willingness by some of the
30:34
Speaker 7: major players to ignore global trade rules set in the WTO.
30:41
Speaker 7: But the good news is that we're still seeing a
30:43
Speaker 7: good number of free trade agreements are being negotiated. I
30:48
Speaker 7: think that whoever wins in November and States is going
30:55
Speaker 7: to cause uncertainty which will increase interest in agreements such CPGPP,
31:01
Speaker 7: and I think a lot of lot of countries will
31:03
Speaker 7: look at a dealer have just done with GCC and
31:09
Speaker 7: be encouraged to negotiat also with the DC seekers. Clearly
31:13
Speaker 7: they are able to negotiate higher quality agreements than people thought,
31:17
Speaker 7: particularly around agriculture.
31:18
Speaker 2: Interesting take. Thank you very much for that. Charles Charles Funny,
31:21
Speaker 2: former New Zealand trade negotiator, on the program eight minutes

Speaker 2: Away from six News.
31:25
Speaker 6: Talk SIB the first Word on the News of the
31:28
Speaker 6: Day Early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New
31:32
Speaker 6: Zealand's Furniture Beds and a playing Store.
31:34
Speaker 2: News Talk sidby. It is five to six or on
31:37
Speaker 2: News Talk SIDB. We've covered the new Trade Deal with
31:40
Speaker 2: the Golf States. This morning. We've covered Mike King. This morning,
31:42
Speaker 2: we've covered all manner of things, but we haven't talked
31:44
Speaker 2: about in Mike Hosking is here quite fine enough about
31:47
Speaker 2: the fact.
31:47
Speaker 4: I'm having this argument about the furies with my producer,
31:51
Speaker 4: and I said, where is the faery story this morning?
31:53
Speaker 4: It's not now news bulletins as far as I know.
31:55
Speaker 4: Happy to be corrected, it's not now news bulletins. It's
31:58
Speaker 4: not on your show, it's not on my show.
32:00
Speaker 2: It will be now.
32:01
Speaker 4: But you've got a report yesterday, and my may Fast
32:06
Speaker 4: reported yesterday.
32:07
Speaker 2: It was widely replied.
32:11
Speaker 4: I I agree with all of that, but there are
32:13
Speaker 4: implications out of this because this is a transportation system
32:16
Speaker 4: that represents State Highway one.
32:19
Speaker 7: Right.
32:19
Speaker 4: So the story up until this point has been that
32:21
Speaker 4: the fairies are useless and they're old, and we have
32:24
Speaker 4: the unions on every three and a half minutes telling
32:26
Speaker 4: the government to buy more fairies, and that's been the story.
32:28
Speaker 4: What the story really is, as we found out yesterday,
32:31
Speaker 4: is three idiots.
32:32
Speaker 2: Didn't know which button.
32:34
Speaker 4: We literally didn't know how to drive the ship. Literally. Now,
32:38
Speaker 4: if that had been an aeroplane, this would be a
32:41
Speaker 4: national crisis. So you're driving the public transport system on
32:46
Speaker 4: State Highway one into the land because you have and
32:50
Speaker 4: it's not it's not a complex, it's not like you know,
32:52
Speaker 4: we spent three hours yesterday working through how the system works.
32:56
Speaker 4: It's a button.
32:56
Speaker 2: There's two buttons.
32:57
Speaker 4: There's two buttons, and the main button is to stop it.
33:01
Speaker 4: You push it for five seconds to unlock it.
33:04
Speaker 2: But the thing that we don't know because they don't
33:06
Speaker 2: apportion and blame in this first report, right, so they
33:08
Speaker 2: don't say that's the fault of the individuals, or is
33:11
Speaker 2: it the fault of the fact that they weren't trained properly?
33:14
Speaker 4: It's the stomach. I mean, honestly, if you get on
33:18
Speaker 4: a ship and you're called the master and you don't
33:21
Speaker 4: know how to turn off the automatic pilot system, are
33:24
Speaker 4: you really the master? Or are we just why don't
33:26
Speaker 4: you you go, Ryan, go on, you sail the ship today.
33:29
Speaker 2: I have enough problems pressing these buttons on and off.
33:32
Speaker 4: I don't know, it just seems it just seems we're
33:34
Speaker 4: such a mounted little country and it's like, come on
33:39
Speaker 4: anyway more on this lane, right.
33:40
Speaker 2: Sounds like a happy Friday from Mike. Enjoy everyone, I'll
