  Speaker 1: All right, all right, all right, Yes, indeed you are
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: the author of your story, of your journal. In this journal,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: you will get to know yourself better, and who better
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: to get to know.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: Well. It's very hard to explain that this is a
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: work trip.
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: It simply doesn't matter that we start eacht at five
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: and finish at ten pm at night.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: It's relentless, but no one cares, and rightly so.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: I travel with three incredible workmates, and now you can
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: add Teresa and Grace to that.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Two live wires.
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: We're filmed in castles, sunflower sells fields, the Hamptons and
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: Times Square and a field of glowing pumpkins for Halloween,
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: and all in just the first three days. My wife
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: thinks we're on holiday, Our boss thinks for on holiday.
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: But I can assure you it's not a holiday. But
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: in terms of working, I don't think it's possible to
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: get any better than this.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: The men before me worked.
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: With very different lives and women, but all three of
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: us have worked in mess My granddad was a welder,
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: my dad was a roofer, and I am merton.
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: Bum very nice, I do. They say, I don't really
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: know someone until you travel with them and over the years,
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: I've been lucky enough to travel with my good friends
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: and workmates and those I consider family Tony and Sam
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: and now Rosier producer too, and I.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: Still love them to bits.
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: On this very special work trip, which is a work
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: trip by the way to New York, though, I got
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: to know myself a bit better. And as Matthew McConaughey
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: would say, who better to get to know? In all
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: the years, I've never really been able to fall asleep
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: on planes, and I have so much admiration for those
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: lucky souls who are able to sit down, strapper in
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: and nod off.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: I've even tried taking sleeping pills and malatonin and they've
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: never really worked. On this trip, however, I experienced a
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: whirlwind of emotion. First off, I somehow got an invitation
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: to the in New Zealand Lounge, then it got revoked.
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: Then I gained exes again standard I know I don't
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: fully understand. Then my good friend. I watched my good
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: friend get upgraded to business class as I turned right
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: to find my seat, but then I way to.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Tell people again.
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: But then I looked down and noticed something on my
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: boarding paths that said skycouch, which means I was able
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: to turn a row of seats into a bed, yet
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: another miracle I don't quite understand. And on this trip,
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: for the first time ever, I fell asleep on a plane.
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: So the lessons I've learned, I've learned to believe in miracles.
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: I've learned to never give up hope. And I've also
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: learned that sometimes a little moment happens and it's like
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: life saying surprise, here's a fun part, here's a fun twist,
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: here's a plot twist, and a free imask. You never
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: stop believing that anything can happen. Yeah, it's probably going
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: to be a one timer, but good on you. Jay
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: Dear journal.
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: Gotta love a theme and an occasion, whether it's watching
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: a sports game, celebrating Christmas, Easter, or Halloween. But I
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: think when it comes to celebrating we can learn something
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: from the Americans. You see, they don't do things by halves.
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: They're all in. They're passionate, and that's such an admirable quality.
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: As Kiwis were inherently understated, we don't like to overdo
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: it or appear to be overly invested or going the
• 2:59
  Speaker 5: extra mark.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Well I'm sure why that is.
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: Perhaps it's we're scared to be to be ourselves, or
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: that we're going to be embarrassed, or maybe it's fear
• 3:06
  Speaker 5: of tall Poppy syndrome, which is alive and kicking. But
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: I think we should rethink this mentality, you know, the
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: saying you get out what you put in. Here in
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: the States, you can see that investment in spades, and
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: it's wonderful to be on the receiving end of that.
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: Whether that's the excitement over food, the locals telling us
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: how wonderful pumpkin season is with their families, the love
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: for the local area going all out for every holiday season.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: It's passion personified.
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: And I'd much rather see that and be part of
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: that than holding back the joy.
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: Oh. I love that it's a sniple of our last
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: few days. Hope you've had a really nice weekend. Either
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: way you're weak, it is even better. Thanks for listening.
