- 0:42Speaker 2: I know, I know there's some goodies out, there's some
- 0:45Speaker 2: good light, but well, you know, mistletoe, Justin Bieber.

- 1:11Speaker 2: I would be happy with even DMX's root off the reindeer.
- 1:19Speaker 1: Okay, we'll pop one in, won't we.
- 1:22Speaker 2: I think we should come on sho Okay, start thinking
- 1:26Speaker 2: nothing slow, Charlie either, if you're going to give any suggestions.
- 1:30Speaker 1: I didn't know.
- 1:30Speaker 2: Whether I wanted to share this. That's why it's taken
- 1:34Speaker 2: me until Thursday to admit something that I did at
- 1:37Speaker 2: the wedding over the weekend, I I lost it. It
- 1:43Speaker 2: was quiet, it was heartfelt.
- 1:46Speaker 1: One of the bridesmaids was.
- 1:48Speaker 2: Just pouring her heart out, you know how much the bride.
- 1:52Speaker 1: Means to her, how much the couple means to her.
- 1:56Speaker 2: And I am almost on the ground my nose, crying
- 2:01Speaker 2: my makeup off and shuddering with the giggles because well
- 2:08Speaker 2: during this, during the speech, the bridesmaid said, you know
- 2:15Speaker 2: how she was always third wheel to the couple that
- 2:17Speaker 2: got married up until Mason came along. Now I sort
- 2:24Speaker 2: of thought, huh, it's weird because her boyfriend, who was
- 2:27Speaker 2: there in the crowd, his name's Nathan, so she got
- 2:32Speaker 2: the name wrong, Mason Nathan. You know, she said, I'm
- 2:35Speaker 2: a third wheel and I was alone until Mason came along.
- 2:39Speaker 1: And poor old Nathan's over there like and I don't
- 2:43Speaker 1: know why. It just was so funny to me.
- 2:46Speaker 2: And of course the minute that I start laughing, it
- 2:49Speaker 2: takes a turn in the speech to you know, the
- 2:52Speaker 2: most gut wrenching, heart breaking, loving part of the speech,
- 2:57Speaker 2: and that.
- 2:57Speaker 1: Made it more funny. They made it, but only you.
- 3:02Speaker 2: Well everyone laughed a little bit at the comment, but
- 3:05Speaker 2: I didn't stop.
- 3:07Speaker 1: So she got a boyfriend's name wrong. So who's Mason?
- 3:10Speaker 2: Well, I found out way after the reception, once all
- 3:15Speaker 2: the speeches and eating had done, because I had to
- 3:17Speaker 2: bring it up with someone.
- 3:18Speaker 1: I had to explained myself. I mean, my whole table
- 3:21Speaker 1: literally saw me on the ground.
- 3:22Speaker 2: I was veins popping out of my head, crying and
- 3:25Speaker 2: red in the face, and I was like, man, couldn't.
- 3:29Speaker 1: Keep it together. Back there.
- 3:30Speaker 2: I can't believe she got the name wrong. They said, no,
- 3:33Speaker 2: Mason's the dog. She was telling a joke.
- 3:38Speaker 4: Well, you were laughing at the jokes, that's good.
- 3:41Speaker 3: No, you laughed before you found out it was a joke,
- 3:43Speaker 3: so you thought she was planing up. I don't know
- 3:45Speaker 3: who Mason the dog is.
- 3:47Speaker 1: Mistake.
- 3:48Speaker 4: So at the wedding and this heartfelt moment as there
- 3:50Speaker 4: is on the floor laughing, no one else is laughing,
- 3:52Speaker 4: no one else is laughing.
- 3:53Speaker 1: You'd lost it. I lost it.
- 3:56Speaker 2: And the more I tried to say to myself this
- 3:59Speaker 2: is not a time to laugh, funnier it became that.
- 4:02Speaker 4: I was like, because when you feel that, like you know,
- 4:05Speaker 4: oh no, I can't stop, you know, and you in
- 4:07Speaker 4: the whole thing of thinking about not laughing makes you laugh.
- 4:11Speaker 4: Or like when you're trying to record something right, right, right, Okay,
- 4:14Speaker 4: that's it, and then start cooking right and it's and
- 4:18Speaker 4: then you get to a point where if you were
- 4:20Speaker 4: someone else and now whinding you up and you're both laughing,
- 4:22Speaker 4: and you go right, shush, okay, we're going to do
- 4:24Speaker 4: it this time, and then you lose it again.
- 4:27Speaker 3: I just can't look at it, and you can't control
- 4:29Speaker 3: yourself when it comes to these moments, right, because everyone
- 4:31Speaker 3: looks at it, especially during half out moments and all
- 4:36Speaker 3: quiet times.
- 4:37Speaker 1: You went to church your whole life. Surely you've had a.
- 4:39Speaker 3: Few moments this was a a funeral. No you haven't.

- 5:12Speaker 3: it was such a heart felt speech and we're it
- 5:17Speaker 3: wasn't funny at the time, but then you know, I
- 5:19Speaker 3: mean like he just couldn't wrap things up. But then

- 7:36Speaker 2: So when was the time you've lost at eight two
- 7:39Speaker 2: double eight hundred and four flavor the more inappropriate? Maybe
- 7:43Speaker 2: I'll share one. When have you got the giggles? And
- 7:48Speaker 2: inappropriate time? I did over the weekend at the wedding,
- 7:52Speaker 2: during the heartfelt moment of one of the bridesmaid's speeches,
- 7:56Speaker 2: I've decided that I misheard what she said, and so
- 8:00Speaker 2: I started and I couldn't stop. I had to close
- 8:02Speaker 2: my eyes, and for some reason, the floor feels safer
- 8:05Speaker 2: in those moments. So I just duck down and got low,
- 8:08Speaker 2: got lo.
- 8:09Speaker 4: Go lo, go low here on the text, and we
- 8:11Speaker 4: were talking about inappropriate places you've lost it, you know,
- 8:14Speaker 4: I just got the giggles here on the text.
- 8:17Speaker 1: Well, if you're mildy, you'll relate.
- 8:19Speaker 4: You know, when a contwer does the cordor the last
- 8:21Speaker 4: quarter or a tonguey and they always have to clear
- 8:24Speaker 4: their throat, for example ten.
- 8:26Speaker 1: Con, they're no go.
- 8:32Speaker 4: Every second word he coughed, and I couldn't stop laughing like,
- 8:36Speaker 4: oh wait, I got it in the car on the
- 8:40Speaker 4: way home.
- 8:43Speaker 3: That's the worst thing when like some people are not
- 8:45Speaker 3: mindful when they're like clearing, especially when okay, so when
- 8:49Speaker 3: people come to do speeches and you already know the
- 8:52Speaker 3: mic'es on, but then they're like their brothers are like, yeah,
- 8:57Speaker 3: I'm like bro the mice a double O.
- 9:01Speaker 2: Saying I completely lost it during grace one night and
- 9:05Speaker 2: ended up with no dinner. Now do it or how
- 9:10Speaker 2: about I just lose it every single time that one
- 9:11Speaker 2: of my mates haests to say a speech. I don't
- 9:13Speaker 2: know what it is about seeing one of the bros
- 9:15Speaker 2: get up and have to do public speaking just so funny.
- 9:19Speaker 1: I've seen that. Yeah, different of that who shut up?
- 9:23Speaker 1: You know you're trying to act like a googo object.
- 9:26Speaker 2: And they're like, oh, you know, shout out to the family.
- 9:29Speaker 2: You're not even that guy a serious one. They can
- 9:33Speaker 2: serious gay.
- 9:38Speaker 1: Stays. Azora and Charlie tip off mysteries hop about mystery.
- 9:47Speaker 4: Today we look at a song that was number one
- 9:50Speaker 4: for three weeks in New Zealand in nineteen ninety one.
- 9:54Speaker 4: It was a year of great tracks. This one, Father MC,
- 9:57Speaker 4: I'll do for you What Excukes.
- 9:59Speaker 1: Me Like You Went to Know but Born Fell? And
- 10:02Speaker 1: What Normal More featuring Mary J.
- 10:04Speaker 4: Blige and this song as you hear it now is
- 10:06Speaker 4: a sample of Sheryl Lynn's song got to Be Real.
- 10:13Speaker 1: You can hear it from Real?
- 10:15Speaker 3: Right?
- 10:17Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 10:18Speaker 4: So Father m C real name Timothy Brown was It
- 10:23Speaker 4: was a big hit at that time. In his debut
- 10:25Speaker 4: album was called Father's Day Get It in nineteen ninety.
- 10:28Speaker 4: Then he had another album two years after his debut,
- 10:32Speaker 4: close to You.
- 10:33Speaker 3: Now.
- 10:33Speaker 4: The thing about this song I'll Do for You is
- 10:36Speaker 4: the version that we Know and made number one is
- 10:38Speaker 4: actually a remix with Mary J. Blige on it. It
- 10:41Speaker 4: was supposed to have another singer on it the original version.
- 10:45Speaker 3: David Hallister was on the original and then next so
- 10:49Speaker 3: you know, they just took Dave off and he made
- 10:52Speaker 3: the one with Mary.
- 10:53Speaker 1: Jay on We got you know I'll Do for You
- 10:56Speaker 1: And it was crazy because it worked.
- 10:57Speaker 4: It worked, it worked, and that's why it became the
- 11:00Speaker 4: single that was released. And now if you're think of
- 11:01Speaker 4: David Holster, how do I know that name? Well, he's
- 11:04Speaker 4: from Black Street and he did actually have a solo
- 11:06Speaker 4: career as well, with songs like keep Loving You, but.
- 11:15Speaker 1: They went for the version with Mary J. Blige, and
- 11:18Speaker 1: we know who Mary J. Blige beg came.
- 11:20Speaker 4: But the thing was, she was signed to Uptown Records
- 11:23Speaker 4: at the age of eighteen and she was booked as
- 11:27Speaker 4: a backup vocalist for Father MC. And they actually made
- 11:31Speaker 4: another song together and she sometimes, you know, we jump
- 11:34Speaker 4: out on stage with him, like she did in Summer
- 11:37Speaker 4: Jam nineteen ninety two, just sing one night Stand with
- 11:40Speaker 4: him on a.
- 11:42Speaker 3: Stage, very clad, very clad.
- 11:57Speaker 4: Outlaying it a very young Mary J. Blige and Father EMC.
- 12:05Speaker 4: He's still going. He's still touring. You can find him
- 12:07Speaker 4: on Instagram if you really want to sort of doing
- 12:10Speaker 4: some low key that he's make it sound high key
- 12:13Speaker 4: kind of things. I mean, he's a Grammy nominated, multi
- 12:15Speaker 4: platinum artist, rappers, song of writer, producer, also introduce the
- 12:19Speaker 4: will to Joe Toese, So he's probably doing all right.
- 12:21Speaker 4: But this was a great track, and now we know
- 12:23Speaker 4: a little bit more about the fact that it was
- 12:25Speaker 4: actually a remix. It is I'll do for you Father
- 12:28Speaker 4: MC and Mary J.
- 12:29Speaker 1: Blige.
- 12:30Speaker 4: That's your hip up mystery, because if you don't.
- 12:32Speaker 1: Know, now you know, all right, hear me out.
- 12:35Speaker 3: This is a I don't know if this is just
- 12:38Speaker 3: my own personal POV on this whole thing or maybe
- 12:41Speaker 3: a guys, because you guys want to explain this to
- 12:44Speaker 3: you guys yesterday you guys had a different perspective on this.
- 12:48Speaker 1: Just ask your question. You don't understand why. I don't
- 12:51Speaker 1: understand why. Okay, And.
- 12:54Speaker 3: When I make an effort to get an outfit, first
- 12:58Speaker 3: thing I asked myself is this.
- 13:00Speaker 1: I wonder if anyone else is going to wear this?
- 13:02Speaker 3: Right, like, if it's his shirt, pants, shoes or whatever,
- 13:05Speaker 3: I try and go like exclusive.
- 13:08Speaker 1: That's just me thinking to myself, right, okay, But you
- 13:10Speaker 1: don't understand why. But I don't understand why. I don't.
- 13:14Speaker 3: I dislike the fact that I would walk into a
- 13:18Speaker 3: room or to wherever I'm playing, specially festivals, and I
- 13:21Speaker 3: could spot somebody wearing the same shirt, shorts or whatever
- 13:26Speaker 3: it is shoes like me.
- 13:27Speaker 1: It just puts me off. Please get into a bad mood.
- 13:30Speaker 1: It puts me into it like, oh, bro.
- 13:33Speaker 4: Right, So this hard thing of yeah I stole my look.
- 13:36Speaker 4: You feel that too, you guys. You go that guy
- 13:39Speaker 4: that bro stole my look? Yeah, it's not so much
- 13:41Speaker 4: that that he stole my look. But I'm just like,
- 13:43Speaker 4: I failed in this department. Yes, you know what I mean.
- 13:46Speaker 2: I'm like, that's what it is, That's what the feeling is.
- 13:48Speaker 2: I don't care if someone's wearing the same effort. Clearly
- 13:51Speaker 2: they have tastes.
- 13:52Speaker 3: Yeah, And I built myself up when I got into
- 13:55Speaker 3: the store. I'm like, nah, surely no one's got this,
- 13:57Speaker 3: you know what I mean. But it's why you're disappointed
- 14:00Speaker 3: because you've created that expectation.
- 14:02Speaker 2: You've gone into a store trying to find something that,
- 14:05Speaker 2: quote your words, no one else is going to be wearing.
- 14:09Speaker 2: So when you do see someone wearing the outfit, you're disappointed.
- 14:12Speaker 2: That's why you should get rid of those expectations. But
- 14:14Speaker 2: it's a very real feeling. I didn't realize men felt
- 14:17Speaker 2: like that.
- 14:17Speaker 3: But I get to a point where I'm just like,
- 14:19Speaker 3: I need to get out of this top right now.
- 14:21Speaker 3: Like actually, honest, no life not nowhere of a lie
- 14:24Speaker 3: hand or not. I'm like, bro, do I have a
- 14:26Speaker 3: T shirt in the car?
- 14:27Speaker 1: Do I have? Just really? Yeah?
- 14:30Speaker 4: But what shops are going to I mean, the thing
- 14:33Speaker 4: is for kings, yeah, you know other people are going
- 14:35Speaker 4: to have them.
- 14:36Speaker 3: Yeah, And it's not flash shops to be honest, because like,
- 14:40Speaker 3: I'd rather just go like plainless to like this sort
- 14:43Speaker 3: of which.
- 14:43Speaker 1: Is fine, but you can't expect to then be exclusive.
- 14:47Speaker 2: Yeah, how can you be upset if oh my gosh,
- 14:49Speaker 2: there's another dude wearing a white shirt.
- 14:50Speaker 4: What the heck this guy is wearing the Helenstein's outfit
- 14:54Speaker 4: I'm wearing, Yeah.
- 14:55Speaker 2: You know, before Eating and Fierce. It's funny. I went
- 14:58Speaker 2: into Culture Kings to look for an outfit. I turned
- 15:01Speaker 2: my butt back around because I realized that everyone was
- 15:04Speaker 2: going there before Eating Fist because they've got that really
- 15:06Speaker 2: good streetwear, you know, and that was the vibe of
- 15:10Speaker 2: that festival, and I was like, idiot, everyone's going to
- 15:12Speaker 2: be wearing the same thing.
- 15:13Speaker 4: That's why I go, you know, design a wardrobe, design
- 15:16Speaker 4: and recycle, you know, like second hand, no line. I
- 15:19Speaker 4: can't handle the shops. I'm useless in the shops, but
- 15:21Speaker 4: I can handle it online.
- 15:23Speaker 2: Well sometimes for a festival, if you haven't had time
- 15:25Speaker 2: to order something online, put something together you've already got.
- 15:29Speaker 1: I'll tell you right now.
- 15:30Speaker 2: Wow, this is break there is Well, people think I
- 15:33Speaker 2: need something, you need something new, Well, guess what, You're
- 15:35Speaker 2: not going to find someone in the same outfit if
- 15:37Speaker 2: you're wearing something from five years ago.
- 15:38Speaker 1: Now, that's why it's the truth. You're right, it is,
- 15:41Speaker 1: you're right, But I think it.
- 15:43Speaker 3: Is why it's safer for a lot of people just
- 15:45Speaker 3: to like go buy material in their own That's not
- 15:50Speaker 3: that's not reasonable.
- 15:51Speaker 1: People don't do that. I'm just saying, man, okay, you do.
- 15:54Speaker 2: That, then next time you're on stage, how about you
- 15:56Speaker 2: make your own outfit.
- 15:57Speaker 4: And we're just like here, I'd like to put out
- 16:00Speaker 4: the irony. I remember when you got that shit that
- 16:02Speaker 4: you're wearing right now, Charlie. You bought it because Scotti
- 16:04Speaker 4: had one similar and you're like, I want to look
- 16:06Speaker 4: like that.
- 16:06Speaker 1: I know you stole his look, I know, but like
- 16:08Speaker 1: he wears it better. But it's just we're still hear baby,
- 16:12Speaker 1: You'll get.
- 16:12Speaker 2: There one day, barony, irony, your muscles will grow one day, broke.
- 16:17Speaker 1: I saw a.
- 16:18Speaker 4: Very funny meme the other day of a dad who
- 16:22Speaker 4: sheares the text from his teenagers, and one of them is,
- 16:27Speaker 4: what is the name of that thing with the Jesus
- 16:29Speaker 4: action figures?
- 16:31Speaker 1: Figure out what she's talking about?
- 16:32Speaker 4: What is the name of that thing with the Jesus
- 16:35Speaker 4: co action figures?
- 16:36Speaker 2: The setup of the Birth of Jesus.

- 16:47Speaker 1: And so set up and they do plays, they do
- 16:49Speaker 1: plays on it. Yeah, what about it? What's it called?
- 16:52Speaker 1: I don't know?

- 16:54Speaker 4: Hey, you you are the most church going of all
- 16:57Speaker 4: of us.
- 16:57Speaker 1: You need to know this. He was in a barn, right,
- 17:00Speaker 1: what's it called? Oh my gosh, Nativity play? Yes, Nativity scene?
- 17:04Speaker 1: How did I get there before you?
- 17:06Speaker 3: Bro?
- 17:06Speaker 1: Yeah, that's not in the Bible. Well then what is it?
- 17:10Speaker 1: And how does everyone know about it? That is the
- 17:12Speaker 1: thing about Christmas.
- 17:14Speaker 4: There's some stuff that you go, Wow, maybe I don't
- 17:16Speaker 4: know that because I didn't do religious education.
- 17:17Speaker 1: How come you don't know it? And I went to
- 17:20Speaker 1: a Catholic school. Yes, the Nativity scene. Nativity scene, all
- 17:25Speaker 1: kids are, right, Bro, you've got to start going back
- 17:27Speaker 1: to church. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
- 17:29Speaker 4: And you know, and then Nativity play the best role
- 17:32Speaker 4: as the lobster.
- 17:33Speaker 1: Everyone knows that the lobster.
- 17:35Speaker 2: You know what you know what's crazy is you know,
- 17:38Speaker 2: my papa, he was a pastor his entire life and
- 17:41Speaker 2: my grandmother. She ran the churches, did the accounts, you know,
- 17:45Speaker 2: did all the organizing, and that's how they traveled around
- 17:47Speaker 2: the country. My dad he was like there were three
- 17:51Speaker 2: boys and they always rebelled since they were, you know,
- 17:55Speaker 2: staying in and around churches, to the point that I
- 18:00Speaker 2: remember my father during grace. He used to always like
- 18:03Speaker 2: nudge us or eat something off his plate when my
- 18:06Speaker 2: Papa would be saying grace, which.
- 18:07Speaker 1: Is so naughty, Like that is so naughty.
- 18:11Speaker 2: But that's how I learned about Christmas and the Bible
- 18:15Speaker 2: and whatnot.
- 18:15Speaker 1: But he was old school man. My papa.
- 18:17Speaker 2: Well, clearly they're cooler now, you know, like pastors are
- 18:20Speaker 2: cooler now.
- 18:21Speaker 4: Sorry to my papa, but clearly you missed some points
- 18:24Speaker 4: because you didn't know that about the Jesus Action figures
- 18:26Speaker 4: being in the Nativity.
- 18:27Speaker 2: To be fear Jesus Action figures isn't really a lot
- 18:30Speaker 2: to go off.
- 18:31Speaker 1: Stace did the.
- 18:33Speaker 2: Jesus Action figures and she goes figure it out. Guys,
- 18:36Speaker 2: she's making it our He's the one they see figures
- 18:40Speaker 2: for you.
- 18:41Speaker 1: You're really talking about toys.
- 18:42Speaker 4: You no, no, no, all of those I'm coming to you,
- 18:46Speaker 4: Charlie if I need to know what a Christmas mess is,
- 18:48Speaker 4: you know, all those latest things you really should know.
- 18:50Speaker 1: You do better, do better? Why looking at me like that.
- 18:54Speaker 1: I hope your parents weren't listening.
- 18:56Speaker 3: Charlie Stace Azora and Charlie.
- 19:04Speaker 2: Boy, oh boy, I'm excited for this one. It was
- 19:07Speaker 2: the nineteen sixty where Farmers.
- 19:11Speaker 1: Put up the Giant Center. Oh my goodness, you mean
- 19:16Speaker 1: Farmers Trading Company, not just some farmer.
- 19:19Speaker 2: No, yeah, exactly, Farmers still in our you know, in
- 19:22Speaker 2: our hearts and our regions and city today. Well, yes,
- 19:27Speaker 2: the giant Santa was put in the front of the
- 19:28Speaker 2: building on the corner of Hobson Street and Wyndham Street
- 19:31Speaker 2: in Auckland. It was fiberglass and weighed five tons, standing
- 19:35Speaker 2: at a height of eighteen meters. Back then, it featured
- 19:40Speaker 2: a winking eye and a beckoning.
- 19:42Speaker 1: Finger which the finger would move.
- 19:46Speaker 2: The whole point of it was it was pointing down
- 19:48Speaker 2: to try and get people to go into the store
- 19:50Speaker 2: and too Farmers And it stood proudly, this giant, scary,
- 19:55Speaker 2: creepy Santa for thirty years. But in nineteen ninety the
- 20:00Speaker 2: store was put it for sale and so everyone was like.
- 20:02Speaker 1: Oh no, what's going to happen with center?
- 20:05Speaker 2: Well, the Farmers in Monaco Shopping City Center said, you.
- 20:10Speaker 1: Know what, we'll take it. We'll take will take him.
- 20:13Speaker 2: So from nineteen ninety one to nineteen ninety five, that's
- 20:16Speaker 2: where he lived.
- 20:19Speaker 1: We're about to I don't remember that.
- 20:21Speaker 2: Yeah, me too, get ready, get ready, this is a journey.
- 20:25Speaker 1: And then in nineteen ninety.
- 20:26Speaker 2: Six the shopping center decided, nah, we're not going to
- 20:29Speaker 2: put center up because.
- 20:31Speaker 1: He has a tetty appearance.
- 20:33Speaker 2: And it wasn't until nineteen ninety eight, when Santa had
- 20:37Speaker 2: been dormant, he'd been nowhere for two years, that a
- 20:40Speaker 2: marketing events consultant, Stephen Hanford, purchased Center from Farmers for
- 20:45Speaker 2: one dollar.
- 20:46Speaker 1: He brought it back to Auckland.
- 20:48Speaker 2: He also created a restoration project and put in forty
- 20:54Speaker 2: thousand dollars into getting it a paint job and removing
- 20:59Speaker 2: all the russ from the structure. Basically a BBL pretty
- 21:03Speaker 2: much pretty much. So, yep, he was back up in
- 21:07Speaker 2: an Auckland City the center, like on Queen.
- 21:09Speaker 4: Street, because I do remember him there. Yes, that was
- 21:12Speaker 4: nineteen ninety eight, was.
- 21:12Speaker 2: Ninety ninety eight. He was back up in Auckland Queen Street.
- 21:16Speaker 2: Get this, it carries on. So it wasn't until mister
- 21:21Speaker 2: Hanford who purchased the center. He actually moved over to
- 21:24Speaker 2: Australia in two thousand and three and then he handed
- 21:26Speaker 2: over ownership to the company. But in two thousand and
- 21:32Speaker 2: eight Wikels declared that they could no longer absorb Santa's
- 21:38Speaker 2: cost guys, because it had risen to fifty five thousand.
- 21:43Speaker 1: Dollars a year. He had to put him up and
- 21:45Speaker 1: all that and the storage of them as well.
- 21:47Speaker 2: So yeah, so between that nineteen ninety eight and two
- 21:49Speaker 2: thousand and three Wikells had Center, but they gave the
- 21:54Speaker 2: responsibility of center to the rate payers. In two thousand
- 21:58Speaker 2: and three, they did a bunch of what's it called poles.
- 22:04Speaker 1: To see do we just get rid of him?
- 22:05Speaker 2: Guys, Come on Auckland City, part of the city, you know,
- 22:07Speaker 2: do we get rid of him? Because he costs fifty
- 22:10Speaker 2: five thousand dollars for your class ship.
- 22:12Speaker 1: We guess what.
- 22:13Speaker 2: Twelve poles showed strong support and keeping Santa and that
- 22:17Speaker 2: he would be back in two thousand and nine. But
- 22:20Speaker 2: when it came back, he got a facelift.
- 22:22Speaker 5: When Santa started receiving hate mail, the council knew it
- 22:25Speaker 5: had to act.
- 22:26Speaker 1: The brief was, look, we don't want to lose the feel.
- 22:30Speaker 6: Of Santa, and everybody wants to keep him, but we'd
- 22:32Speaker 6: just like to make him look a little friendlier.
- 22:34Speaker 1: M So that they did.
- 22:36Speaker 2: He went another facelift of one hundred thousand dollars plus.
- 22:40Speaker 2: Oh this is for this makeover in two thousand and nine,
- 22:45Speaker 2: and he was unveiled in November. He had a more
- 22:48Speaker 2: friendly appearance, and you know, people were like, okay, cool,
- 22:51Speaker 2: this is fine.
- 22:52Speaker 1: We're happy with him.
- 22:54Speaker 2: And then, after nearly six decades on Queen Street, the
- 22:58Speaker 2: Giant Center was finally retired in twenty twenty because by
- 23:03Speaker 2: then the annual cost of his maintenance and sewage was
- 23:08Speaker 2: more than two hundred thousand dollars.
- 23:12Speaker 5: We made a really difficult decision last year. We know
- 23:15Speaker 5: that people love Center, and we love Center actually, but
- 23:18Speaker 5: he was getting tired and weary and the practicality of
- 23:22Speaker 5: keeping the tradition and legacy alive was becoming more and
- 23:26Speaker 5: more difficult.
- 23:27Speaker 2: So from two thousand and nine, rate payers, we're paying
- 23:29Speaker 2: that cost of Center. Well, I voted for that two
- 23:32Speaker 2: hunred thousand dollars a year.
- 23:34Speaker 3: A facelift as the botoxes everything. Man, But if you
- 23:38Speaker 3: do Malone.
- 23:39Speaker 2: Oftenest with this, you can still find the giant creepy centa.
- 23:43Speaker 2: He's gone into retirement in Warnuka's National Transport and Toy Museum.
- 23:48Speaker 2: What a junior from nineteen sixty? How much it cost
- 23:51Speaker 2: to get him down there in the mountain.
- 23:53Speaker 1: I don't want to know. Weird.
- 23:54Speaker 2: I don't want to know it's weird, But it's now over.
- 23:57Speaker 2: From nineteen sixty to twenty twenty was his lifespan, so
- 24:01Speaker 2: we remember that time.
- 24:03Speaker 3: So tomorrow we are releasing any single three Houses Down
- 24:08Speaker 3: featuring a boy.
- 24:09Speaker 1: Canan Canaan, Canaan. Yeah.
- 24:13Speaker 3: So he's produced this treck And the funny thing is
- 24:16Speaker 3: how music comes about.
- 24:18Speaker 1: It's magical.
- 24:19Speaker 3: Like if he attempted this to me in a state
- 24:21Speaker 3: where I wasn't really bothered to get into a studio
- 24:25Speaker 3: and record this, I think it will take like maybe
- 24:27Speaker 3: a year to get together and put.
- 24:30Speaker 1: The song together, you know what I mean?
- 24:32Speaker 3: Like, but I think that the time frame that we
- 24:37Speaker 3: by putting the song together was like maybe within like
- 24:39Speaker 3: an hour.
- 24:40Speaker 4: Why why just because of availability.
- 24:43Speaker 1: Or one availability and.
- 24:47Speaker 3: Because the maybe the state that wasn't you mean the
- 24:51Speaker 3: vibes well yeah, yeah, yeah, the vibes were good. But
- 24:54Speaker 3: then you know, the inspiration comes to you when you're
- 24:56Speaker 3: in a certain place.
- 24:59Speaker 2: You know, did I say, Okay, I know what you're
- 25:03Speaker 2: trying to say. You're saying you know, whenever you get

- 27:41Speaker 2: jay Z. Jay Z he was actually showing love number
- 27:43Speaker 2: sixteen from the Billboard Top Pop Stars of the Century.
- 27:48Speaker 2: So Jay, do you guys remember us talking about the
- 27:52Speaker 2: exhibition that he had in Brooklyn. So that started in
- 27:55Speaker 2: July last year and it's lasted all the way up
- 27:57Speaker 2: until this year, recently closed it down. And what was
- 28:01Speaker 2: in this exhibition, Well, it had original recording masters, never
- 28:05Speaker 2: seen before photos, iconic stage where and the Book of
- 28:10Speaker 2: Hove was in there as well. That's what they called
- 28:13Speaker 2: it as well. So they've turned that into an actual book.
- 28:17Speaker 2: That way, if you weren't able to go to the exhibition,
- 28:20Speaker 2: there've catalog everything that was in that museum. So I
- 28:24Speaker 2: would assume it's kind of probably a Christmas idea because
- 28:27Speaker 2: you would get a book the Book of Hove and
- 28:31Speaker 2: it would have those iconic stage things, recording original master
- 28:35Speaker 2: it would be a lot of.
- 28:36Speaker 3: People will buy that book because it's like, you know,
- 28:38Speaker 3: he's full of inspiration. Remember when people were like, would
- 28:41Speaker 3: you take five hundred thousand or have a lunch date
- 28:44Speaker 3: or dinner date with.
- 28:45Speaker 4: Yeah, with jay Z jay Z the book. So there's
- 28:49Speaker 4: a couple of different price points. The classic versions one
- 28:52Speaker 4: hundred and twenty backs. The ultimate version is two thousand.
- 28:56Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh my gosh.
- 28:58Speaker 4: Well I'm talking about though for the coffee table book, Well,
- 29:02Speaker 4: for us that would be a lot more.
- 29:05Speaker 2: That's us saying. Then the shipping a to get things
- 29:07Speaker 2: from the US young hole that is. I mean, I'm curious.
- 29:14Speaker 2: Is it a weird thing to be noisier about celebrity children.
- 29:18Speaker 4: Well, it's come up this week because Martin Lawrence's daughter
- 29:23Speaker 4: is marrying Eddie Murphy's son. So they were in Boomerang together,
- 29:27Speaker 4: they're in movie Life together. Apparently they're actually met through
- 29:31Speaker 4: an uncle.
- 29:33Speaker 1: That's what Jasmine says.
- 29:33Speaker 4: Her uncle actually introduced her to Eric Murphy, who's Eddie
- 29:37Speaker 4: murphy son. By the way, Eddie Murphy, why you call
- 29:39Speaker 4: your kid Eric Murphy? I don't know, might just go
- 29:41Speaker 4: the whole hog and call him junior or something like Eric.
- 29:44Speaker 4: Is it's like a tem version of Eddie or something,
- 29:46Speaker 4: you know what I mean in that context. So, yeah,
- 29:50Speaker 4: there's a couple of celebrity children that have got together,
- 29:54Speaker 4: I guess because they're kind of in the same scene.
- 29:57Speaker 4: And Jasmine and Eric the latest ones to get there.
- 30:02Speaker 4: But you've got also quite a few really see Miley
- 30:08Speaker 4: Cyrus she went out with Patrick's What's Sneaker for a while.
- 30:12Speaker 1: I don't even know that.
- 30:14Speaker 4: Yes, so Miley Cyrus is obviously second generation because her
- 30:17Speaker 4: dad was also as also famous Billy Ray. And so
- 30:23Speaker 4: before she got back together with her ex Liam Hens,
- 30:25Speaker 4: she went out with Patrick for a bit. Kendall Jenna, well,
- 30:30Speaker 4: there's quite a few people there, but also went out
- 30:33Speaker 4: with Anwa Hadid as an the younger brother of Gig
- 30:39Speaker 4: and Bella Hadid.
- 30:40Speaker 1: Oh, yes, that's right. Yeah.
- 30:42Speaker 4: And then also I don't know, those Kardashian sisters all
- 30:45Speaker 4: seemed to.
- 30:46Speaker 1: Go up the same with everyone.
- 30:47Speaker 4: You can basically predict who they're going to go out with.
- 30:50Speaker 1: You.
- 30:51Speaker 4: You also have Phil Collins, daughter married the son of
- 30:55Speaker 4: actors some famous actors, Mary Steenbergen and Malcolm mc dow.
- 31:00Speaker 4: You know, I guess they sort of see each other around.
- 31:03Speaker 2: Well, I would assume is a lot of them would
- 31:05Speaker 2: probably go to similar schools because there has to be
- 31:09Speaker 2: schools out there for one hundred celebrities, you know, that
- 31:11Speaker 2: way that they're around people that they can relate to.
- 31:16Speaker 1: I don't know how they're all being rich together. I
- 31:20Speaker 1: guess rich next do you?
- 31:21Speaker 3: I think the appearances hawked them up, like hey, hey, listen,
- 31:25Speaker 3: you need to go out with so and so.
- 31:27Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Do they play well? What
- 31:32Speaker 1: I do know?
- 31:32Speaker 4: Well, they couldn't in this case because the daughter of
- 31:34Speaker 4: Courtney Love and Kirk Cobaine, she is with Tony Hawk's son.
- 31:40Speaker 1: What a skateboarder? Yeah? What, Well, that's.
- 31:44Speaker 2: Like when Sophia Richie, Lionel Richie's daughter was dating Scopts.
- 31:48Speaker 1: I was like, you know, the one that.
- 31:50Speaker 2: Was with court circles are also to exactly and they
- 31:54Speaker 2: all I've seen a few of them, you know, lenk up.
- 31:58Speaker 2: Shall we say you know to DiCaprio. DiCaprio, Well, he's
- 32:02Speaker 2: been with just anyone, because.
- 32:03Speaker 4: You The thing is is that in New Zealand sometimes
- 32:05Speaker 4: you go, oh my gosh, everyone you know, everyone knows,
- 32:07Speaker 4: everyone in the circles is so tired.
- 32:08Speaker 1: It's like, oh, you used to go out with so
- 32:09Speaker 1: and so now so and so is it really so
- 32:11Speaker 1: different Hollywood standard? We compare in New Zealand to Hollywood.
- 32:15Speaker 1: It's pretty much the same. It's the same damn thing. Guys.
- 32:19Speaker 4: Hey, I've got really good news about Mikey two Pies.
- 32:22Speaker 4: So there was a story out a couple of weeks
- 32:26Speaker 4: ago that they were going to liquidation, and I was like, no,
- 32:29Speaker 4: you know, I love markets a really important place to us,
- 32:33Speaker 4: and worrying about the jobs because there's twenty employees there,
- 32:36Speaker 4: and true, there's a lot of people.
- 32:38Speaker 1: There's not market too.
- 32:39Speaker 4: Yeah, there's not many jobs there at all, and market
- 32:43Speaker 4: two pies and Makets two pies that people love. And
