FULL SHOW: Date Night With The Fellas

17:12Whereas the opposition's probably thinking, damn I don't know how we're going against this Warriors forward pack so it's a good position to be in as a fan.

17:19Mike Minogue:100 % Charlie and before we let you go mate as per who was your player of the round brought to you by Porter King? I'm giving it to Luke Metcalf he was sensational he ain't getting a bottle of scrumpy or a bottle of nitro but I'll have that but he definitely got the award. Yeah he did play well he did play and my thing with him is and Mogi's right like I just don't I don't know there's something about him that does rub me up a little bit the wrong way but he won that game for us, you know, he sealed the deal. And something we've been looking at as well, Charlie, was kick meters and we're saying, oh, he doesn't kick much further than, you know, the guys that we've had, which is Tamayeri and, no, not CNK.

17:59CHT. CHT. But what he does have is huge hang time on his kicks compared to the other guys. Yeah, yeah, you got big hang time too, Mojith. I appreciate that coming from you, man. I think, man, when the Fords are going forward, it all works out. I love you, man. That's the main thing. I love you, bro.

18:16Mike Minogue:100 % Mogi Metcalf over there. Thank you so much, Charlie. God, mate, we'll talk to you next week. Let's go. Let's have a great week, guys. Let's go. Don't forget, if you're in Wellington, you need a Port-A-Loo. Hit up Port-A-King. Uncle Charlie will see you right. The Hauraki Big Show. Weekdays from 4 on Radio Hauraki. The Bestie Boys on the Hauraki Big Show. Nine minutes to five this Monday evening. Let's talk TV. What's on the telly with Mike Minogue?

18:47Yeah! Last night, fellas, I watched Alley Cats, which is a new show from Ricky Gervais of The Office and Extras fame. He's done an animated series about a bunch of stray cats that sort of sit around. They talk to each other's other pugs. That's what's weird about it. What? Not like normal cats. Well, I guess maybe normal cats do, but this is in English. And it is, unbelievably, it's an R16 because it should be an R18. Wow. It is F and C this, F and C that. Absolutely nonstop. And, you know, when there's a lot of swearing, I sort of, oh, God, trying a bit hard to be funny by just having a lot of swearing.

19:33But then it goes through that and it gets to the other side where it's happening so much that it actually becomes funny again. some absolute just completely poor taste horrendous is it clever some no is it clever but you know what I mean

19:48Mike Minogue:like you can be vulgar and you can be low hanging fruit and swearing but as long as it's kind of clever yeah it's Ricky Gervais so there's definitely there's some gold in there I think there's stuff that really it's like splutter laughing you cannot believe right what you've just heard there's some absolutely appalling content on there and and we watched I think there's six episodes I watched five out of the six. We watched five out of the six, my wife and I, 16 minutes each. My wife was cracking up because it's shocking. But I definitely recommend it, and I do want you guys to watch it and get your reports back on it tomorrow because I think Pugs is going to be highly offended.

20:26Jason Hoyte:I'm sceptical about it because, for me, I love Ricky Gervais, his older work, his Golden Globe stuff. I loved Afterlife. But I do feel like more and more over the last recent years, as his emo has just become, how can I offend people without being clever about it? Yeah, that's right. This one does have heart in it, but not an annoying amount of heart like Afterlife and like, what was the other one? I think he did one called Derek, where he was really trying to bash you over the head and excuse all the horrible stuff he does. There's a bit of it, but it's a lot better than some of his other stuff recently, which has annoyed me.

20:59Certainly worth a crack. You've got to give it a go. Look, four buzies out of a possible five is a bit much. Okay. But it made me laugh, and I was pretty tired, so that's pretty good. That's on Netflix, Alley Cats, Ricky Gervais. All right, pugs. How good.

21:15Jason Hoyte:What a rip, mate. I ripped through an entire limited series yesterday on the couch. Oh, yeah. Hung over, eh? Huh? That's hung over right there. That's what that is. That's all hung boy. And I watched on Netflix a show called Legends, which I had never heard of. Oh, yeah. Well, we've reviewed it on this show. Have we? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Have we? Yeah, yeah. I was obviously not listening to Studio B. What did you reckon? I thought that it had very good actors in it, but it didn't connect. And some of the blocking, which is how you set a camera and you play a scene, was absolutely appalling. Who was a good actor in it?

21:47Tom Burke, Steve Coogan. Yeah. Steve Coogan. There's some stuff where their agents and their following people, and the way that they're following people is sitting in a car right next to, I think, drug dealers. Yes, or in the cafe. And looking in their rear view mirror. It was sloppy. sloppy. It's classic Netflix. Garbage. I quite enjoyed it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Don't surprise me. Cheers, man.

22:12Jason Hoyte:No, no, I mean, it's the nature of art. I think, like, my problem with it was Steve Coogan was the humorous aspect for a lot of it, as is Steve Coogan, right? He's famous for Alan Partridge and all that jazz. But I felt like the tone kind of got, they saved a lot of the funnier stuff for when it was the most serious and when the stakes were the highest, which I thought was a bit strange. I thought Tom Burke was pretty unreal in that because he's this guy. Essentially, it's about some of the first undercover agents in Britain going against the drug, the heroin coming into the country. And I would give it a solid 3.8.

22:55Jason Hoyte:Buzzi's out of a possible five. How many episodes is that? Watch the whole thing. I think there's like a good 7 or 8 6 something like that it kind of blended together nah it just blends together after a while man you know how it goes 97 % raw tomatoes yeah they don't know what they're talking about

23:11Mike Minogue:yeah Friday

23:15Mike Minogue:the Hauraki Big Show with Jase, Mike and Keezy tune in weekdays at 4 on Radio Hauraki that's right it is the Hauraki Big Show for Monday the 10th of August 3 minutes past 5 you've got Keezy, Mogi and Pug San and of course The Big Show, brought to you by Reburger.

23:31Jason Hoyte:Mmm, yummy. Handcrafted bird gears, loaded fries, and gourmet eats that will change the game. Ah, that's really quite yummy.

23:39Mike Minogue:Mogi Hoody J is on holiday this week. He's sent a video of him on holiday, and it was him in a hoducky jacket and a boys' trip hat dancing to Inglebert in his own lounge. Yeah, it looked like that, didn't it? It looks like fun, eh? It's a good way to have a week off. He's loving it. He is loving it. A week off us is holiday enough, apparently.

23:59Jason Hoyte:100%. Can I just say, this is the most reels I've ever had from him. Oh, really? Since he's been on holiday. Right. And I don't know if it's - Oh, but you mean he's sending them to you? He's sending them to me. Yeah, same here. Yeah, 100%. See? Yeah, yeah.

24:10Mike Minogue:I don't get any. It's because of your taste. Your taste in reels is like - He doesn't want to get one back. No, exactly. That's the problem. That's probably true, actually. Where he's just - You know what I'm going to do? I'm going to start sending him monkey buzzy reels. That's why, yeah. Until he starts sending me reels. The reels he's sending me is this nerdy guy in cosplay, which is like where you dress up as a video game character. He keeps sending the same guy to me because he thinks that's what being into video games is.

24:40Jason Hoyte:Yeah, he started sending me the same guy, and the other one that he sends me is a guy that's like a fantasy writer and is welcoming and growing his fantasy online community. Yes, that's right. He keeps sending me those. And that's what he thinks that's you guys. To be fair to him, I keep sending him industrial equipment supply company. so

24:56Mike Minogue:it's such good stuff but knowing that he's in full hodaki attire just in a scroll hole on his own couch man he's going to be so great when he comes back next week of course tomorrow Mogey you're on holiday are you going down south going to Queenstown yeah looking forward bloody ripper I'll take my laptop with me though I'll do a little bit of work a little bit of work yeah wouldn't want to just enjoy yourself coming up later this hour on the hodaki big show got an update on my pigeon fellas had another race so you admit that it's your pigeon oh so now it's yours now that we've paid you the money now we're squared away unbelievable We're squared away.

25:25It's your pigeon. Yours. But Pugs gave me... It's mine and Pugs' pigeon.

25:30Mike Minogue:Oh, right, okay, cool. Because he's paid his$100, still waiting on yours. But I had another race over the weekend, fellas. We'll see how it went. We'll give you an update on that. Also, another chance to get free tickets, free accommodation, free flights as well, down to Wellington for Bear Vana, the Bear Festival. Listen out for the queue to call. It's going to be happening at some stage soon. Get ready to call 0800 at Hauraki. In the meantime, Foo Fighters. The Hauraki Big Show with Jace, Mike, and Keezy. Tune in weekdays at 4 on Radio Hodaki. Supergrass on the Hodaki Big Show. 14 minutes past 5 this Monday afternoon with Keezy Mogey and Pug San.

26:01Mike Minogue:And fellas, I've got an update on the Big Show Pigeon.

26:04Jason Hoyte:Keezy on all wings looking over his beak with me, Keezy.

26:11Mike Minogue:God, I hate that name so much. How about the Sting? The Sting rules. It's funny because people that don't listen to the show go, oh, you've got a pigeon, what's its name? and then I have to go oh it's an in joke on the show oh cool but what's its name and then you're oh Keezy on all wings looking over its beak with me Keezy and they're like oh and they have a rapturous

26:32Jason Hoyte:round of applause

26:32Mike Minogue:no twice now they've been like that's a bad name yeah it's a bad name for a bad pigeon yeah it's had two races fellas it raced over the weekend of course its first race a couple of weeks ago was 150km Ashburton to its home in Oamaru 150 Ks 115 birds It came 93rd Was it 93rd in the end Was it okay Yeah Yeah 93rd which is Obviously back of the pack there Not good Over the weekend Had another race This time Christchurch to Oamaru 220 Ks So it's further This time it came 73rd Are you serious 73rd Yeah hang on a minute though See this is the thing Pugs It's going to get your hopes up Out of a field of how many Same amount 115 Oh, and none died.

27:21Oh, no, I don't think he died. This is a thing you assume. No. Do we get a time? No. What I would like to know is how long it took the winning bird and how long it took for Keezy on all wings looking over his beat with me, Keezy.

27:36Mike Minogue:I'll ask that for the next race. Because if it's like 20 seconds, that changes things. I have a feeling it's not. Yeah. I have a feeling it isn't. Because the worrying thing is the race happens on the Saturday and they don't give you the results until Sunday night. Yeah. So that could either be because it takes a lot to sort of tabulate the results or because they're still waiting for old Keezy to get home. That's right. But what really annoys me is early doors. Do you remember, I came on and I said, we've got bird 109. Oh, yes, I do. Yeah. And then I asked for a photo of the bird and Pigeon Tim sent me a photo of a pigeon that clearly had a little tag on its leg that said 107.

28:14Mike Minogue:And his caption was, ain't she a beaut, pigeon 103. Yeah. And so it was super – I had no idea which pigeon I owned. Yes. It turns out the pigeon I owned is 103. Right. And pigeon 109, the one I thought I owned, finished in the top 10. Yeah. Ah. Yeah. Yeah, that's painful, man. So it feels like there's some sort of pigeon conspiracy going on. You need to talk to the stewards. You need to talk to the stewards because there'll be stewards that sort of oversee each race, make sure everything's been done according to the book. So you might have to file a protest. Yeah. I don't see why you wouldn't file a protest.

28:49Mike Minogue:I don't know, because it seems like a bit full on for the Oamaru Pigeon Racing Club to deal with. Yeah. I mean, I would like to know where it all went wrong. Yeah, right. You see what I'm saying now? Who owns 109 as a pigeon Tim? Well, I know it's called Whiskey Wings, which is a way better name. I prefer it. Whiskey Wings? That doesn't even make sense. Yeah, Whiskey Wings doesn't make sense. Yeah. Because you could get the lawyers involved and say... Well, I don't think you need to bring in the lawyers just yet, but you certainly want to have them, you know, to threaten them. Say they're hovering in the background.

29:21Yeah, right, okay. You know what I mean? But it is weird, don't you? Because it was 109. Yeah. The photo came in 107. Ain't she a beaut 103? What is going on?

29:31Mike Minogue:And then, by the way, 103 is finishing back of the pack every time. Yeah, we need an inquiry. Yeah, yeah. I am starting to think, though, do we cut our losses at some point and just go, like, if it starts creeping up because there's still six more races, you know?

29:44Jason Hoyte:It's gone up 20 places in one race 100 % I'm thrilled You're confident? I'm excited Our losses

29:52Mike Minogue:My losses Thank you And mine I'll give you an update on the next race fellas It's in a couple of weeks Yeah boy Alice in Chains Get it in ya The Hauraki Big Show with Jace, Mike and Keezy Tune in weekdays at 4 on Radio Hauraki Can I get anybody a beer?

Andrew, if you were to win this... Yeah, I'm qualified. Yeah, you're qualified. If you won this prize, mate, who would you bring with you?

You don't hear the word Noel too often, do you, Andrew? Where did he cop that name from? Well, it's a nickname. His actual name's Aaron, but I don't know where the Noel came from.

33:17Mike Minogue:Coming up next, old Pugsan's going to hit us with his three goat selections for the greatest of all time countdown. The Hauraki Big Show with Jace, Mike, and Keezy. Tune in weekdays at four on Radio Hauraki. Metallica on The Hauraki Big Show. 20 minutes to 6 this Monday afternoon with Keezy, Mogi and Pug San. The GOAT, the greatest of all time countdown. It gets underway this coming Monday. Voting closes Sunday night. So if you would like to have your say, text the word GOAT to 3483. We'll hit you with a link. You can also head to hodaki.co.nz and vote there. How it works though is you get to lock in three song nominations and the votes will correspond and hopefully bump your favourite tunes up the list.

33:59Mike Minogue:Mogi, last week we did your three GOAT nominations which were? We did Prodigy Omen, Breed from Nirvana, and Green Onions from Booker T. Booker T, that's right. Thank you for putting me on the spot with that. That was good. That was a hard reach. Mine was Inglebert Humperdinck, Kwondo, Kwondo, Kwondo. Yes, Jane. Can't remember what the other two were. Oh, Heroes David Bowie. Yes. All-timer. And the third one. Was something else. And then Hildy J had a few as well. Yeah, Hildy J had a few shitties there. but the exciting thing is that Pugs has got the best taste of music out of all of us Pugs and you've got

34:35Jason Hoyte:your three nominations first of all Chris that's very kind of you to say and a massive set up to disappoint everybody on the line there what are you thinking Keezy before we put ourselves through this you put out a few predictions you put out a few predictions before we got on air

34:48Mike Minogue:I think that Pugs has got a very interesting taste of music he often says that things when he's had a few like oh this album is one of the greatest albums ever made and it's an artist I've never heard of and you listen to it and it's the kind of music I've never heard of well it's often three songs combine into one there's multiple beats going on my brain can't compute there's no metronome in sight

35:05Jason Hoyte:for anybody listening Mogi's referring to when I played Geese Chris is referring to when I played MF Doom no I like MF yeah it just doesn't no there's a lot of he came over to my place when I was living alone and I put it on I was like this is one of the greatest albums ever man have you heard this one he's like this is one of the worst things I've ever heard yeah great well you need that kind of honesty but you are a lover of music Pugsun I like that about you I do love my music well is it music

35:25Mike Minogue:or is it just sounds we're gonna find out I like audio sounds. What are your favourite sounds? You guys are -

35:30Jason Hoyte:The greatest sounds of all time. You guys are going to be blown away by these because two of them we've already heard from you guys. I was going to say one will be - I know what one is. You know what one is, of course. Do you want to start with that one? No, I'll go three to one. Okay. I'll go three to one. Go on. Okay, so the first one is from one - I heard it in one of my favourite films ever, actually, which is a film called About Time. It's a romance movie. Oh, great film. The common theme here is yearning and romance, evidently. But this song is Nick Cave, Into My Arms Same as Hoardy J Yeah

36:08Jason Hoyte:I don't feel the need to get into a spiel as much as you guys As much as you guys covered it the other day You covered him really well His story and his life But yeah, just a beautiful tune And yeah, speaks to all the lovers out there Doesn't it, fellas? Now the number two on my list Is the one that is not shared with anybody here And this is from one of my favourite albums of all time And that is Jeff Buckley's Lover You Should Have Come Over

36:48Mike Minogue:I've never heard that song You've not heard the album, Casey? I've heard one or two. I've heard Hallelujah. Treat yourself to the album, man. Great album. Grace. Yeah, the album's great.

36:59Jason Hoyte:Tragic story, obviously, with Jeff Buckley. He drowned in a river. I believe it was the Mississippi. Was it? Yeah. It was, yeah. And, yeah, it was fully closed.

37:10Mike Minogue:So just quickly on Jeff Buckley, because I'm not super up to date. Ben Hurley once admitted that one of his favorite albums on vinyl was Jeff Buckley, and then we roasted him for ages. Oh, really? Really. So I'm not, like, is he, because I'm not a big listener. Well, that's the main reason you rose somewhere. It's like, oh, are you like that? I've never heard of it before in my life. My ignorance means I'm going to pay you out. That's what we do here in New Zealand. So we did that. If you're any kind of mate, you do that. We did that. And for ages, it was a running thing. Oh, Ben's listening to Jeff Buckley, you know.

37:39Jason Hoyte:But I'm starting to figure out that he was actually pretty good. You should give it a hoon, man. It's not super polished. Like, his voice was never that known for being perfect. But just the passion that he put into it is just unbelievable. And there is some hard tunes on there as well. I think Eternal Grace is one of them. Yeah, it's a great tune. Maybe the greatest yearning song of all time.

37:59Mike Minogue:What's up with you and yearning? I'm a yearning. I'm going to find out. You're normally busy yearning rather than yearning. Yeah, it's a fine one. What's the difference between yearning and just being really desperate? I don't know.

38:12Jason Hoyte:It's just a question. Number one on my goat list, you've heard it. It's one of yours. It is David Bowie's Heroes.

38:24Mike Minogue:Just for one day

38:26Jason Hoyte:I think part of the reason I love this one so much is I had to research it. You remember a while ago I got asked to come up with a roadie playlist when I was going on a summer road trip? And I did a bit of research on the tune and just the way it was made and the story and the meaning behind it about the two lovers in Berlin at the wall there.

38:42Mike Minogue:It reminds me of yearning. A lot of yearning. Honestly, Pugs, better than I was expecting from you. Thank you.

38:49Jason Hoyte:I did try to put a hodaki lens on it. obviously I wasn't going to slip an EMF to him in there thanks man yeah

38:57Mike Minogue:that's the greatest I've been pressured 3483 text the word GOATLOCK your three votes in we rip in on Monday in the meantime Faith No More on the Hauraki Big Show the Hauraki Big Show with Jase, Mike and Keezy tune in weekdays at 4 on Radio Hauraki that's right it is the Hauraki Big Show for Monday the 10th of August three minutes past six Keezy, Mogi and Pugsan Hoity J's on holiday back on Monday.

And so I was definitely the first person to be eating at the store. I just went with it. And it sounds like I'm making it up, but Regent Red. Yep. Which is a delicious chicken one. That's my favourite too. Once I find what it is, I just get that, some chips, and it's my hangover cure now. Yeah, I need a Coca-Cola with that. Yeah, Coke Zero. We've got those in the cans in our fridge at home. Oh. Actually, Pugs, you always run an interesting dinner set up, man.

40:19Mike Minogue:What are you having tonight? Okay, so. Curried tofu.

40:23Jason Hoyte:Not dissimilar. My partner found a recipe online, and she's been telling me a little bit about it. And she goes, oh, the recipe's called If Me Lentils. Oh, yeah. Like, if you, et cetera, me lentils. And I'm like, oh, I've seen those before. There's like trendy recipes, and they call them that. Yeah. I'm like, that's a pretty crazy, like, that's an out-of-the-gate name for a recipe. So she's been getting all the supplies for that over the weekend, and then today she sent me a photo, and I was like, oh, it's actually called Marry Me Lentils. Not F meat lentils Marry me lentils Different people have different priorities at different stages of their life That's right Different strokes

40:58Mike Minogue:Do you reckon she is putting out those vibes? Do you reckon that's like a feeler check? Glad you finished that sentence, Kesey

41:04Jason Hoyte:That she's putting out the vibes, what, for marry me? Or the other one? Oh, marry me Ah, no

41:13Mike Minogue:That's pretty decisive there, Pugs That was a big no I had a delicious paneer curry last night. God, it was good eating. I love paneer. It was so good. You haven't had one of those for a while. Delicious. Oh, that's the one your wife makes. It's called Divorce Me Paneer. That's right. It's called Separate Bedrooms Paneer. Yum. Do you like pearl jam, Pugs? Yeah, could be keen. Jam of the pearl? What about the strokes? It's up next as well, man. Got it all here for you on Hauraki.

42:16Jason Hoyte:We do, we have had a minor influx over the weekend, Keezy, people obviously heard Friday, we're keen to get amongst it but you can send yours at any time to meetpattynips69 at gmail.com I also did a big catch up on some prizes that needed to get sent out Reburg, your vouchers for anybody who gets their email read out on the show, and we've got another one here from Anonymous, he's always sending one in, he says, g'day fellas it's time for this fella to finally settle down and give all the other fieles a chance. I've asked my girlfriend's parents for their blessing. They said yes, and I've screwed down a jeweller on the price for a ring.

42:53Jason Hoyte:But now comes the time to pop the question. Just wondering if you fieles had any tips or do's or don'ts for asking the big question, Cheers Anonymous.

43:02Mike Minogue:Well, Mogey, I don't know how you feel about this, but the first thing you need to do is figure out if they want a big proposal or a little proposal. Yes, public or private.

43:09Jason Hoyte:It's the first thing. Can I stop you there? Would you not want to figure out if they want to be proposed to at all? I feel like that's quite important I'm not married Well if some things go as read You know you'd assume That you've got that sort of That part of it Locked in If he's gone to all this other trouble You'd be You wouldn't feel pretty confident Yeah I've just heard of couples Maybe like Not necessarily spoiling the surprise But just sort of having the conversation Of being like It's gonna We're at that stage in life now Where I could do it

43:35Mike Minogue:It depends on the relationship My wife and I We've been together 15 years And at no point Did Like we might have said Oh we're gonna get married Like everyone We're gonna be together you know, it's pretty obvious. But at no point did I say, yeah, I want to propose soon. Like, no way. Because you still want that, you know, some girls or whatever, they want that surprise. Some girls. Yeah, fair. You know what I mean? Some of them, you know what they're like. They do still want that surprise. Shocking bastards. Hey. Girls. Yeah, some of those girls, you know.

44:02Jason Hoyte:They're like surprises. But yes, I know what you mean, Chris. I hear your brother. But yeah, what do you think, Mogi? Well, I proposed to my wife after one year. Desperate. Was it one year? Yeah, I think it was one year. Well, Keezy, man, yeah, you've got to lock them down, brother. Yeah, 100%. You know, you know. Well, you know, you know. When you're getting on like old Mogey, there's no time to beat around the bush. Were you beating around the bush, were you? You've got to make hay while the sun shines here, Keezy. Bird in the hand, too, in the bush. What? You know what these girls are like.

44:31They like to get married. Some of these girls, they love surprises. What do you do? I don't think there are any tips. You just go with your hat.

44:40Mike Minogue:Your hat. Go with your hat. Follow your heart. Are you saying heart? Heart, yeah. Follow your heart. Do whatever you want. It's different. You're on your own. It's so different from, you know what they're like. Yeah. No. From girl to girl, woman to woman. I wouldn't presume to make a suggestion around what your partner would or would not like. Although, yeah, the public ones can be a bit really risky play.

45:07Jason Hoyte:That was my thought. Again, haven't been married or done any proposing, but you want to gauge whether or not your partner wants like a private one or like one with a beautiful vista, maybe an international, you know.

45:18Mike Minogue:I'd go for somewhere important to you guys. That's a really good... And somewhere important... Reeburger. In my case. Yeah, you know, Bear Vana. The thing is, though, what is important... Like it could be your first overseas trip together and you're at this most amazing spot. That could be important to you guys because, you know.

45:34Jason Hoyte:Yep.

45:36Mike Minogue:Don't go horse riding. I went horse riding. Terrifying. Don't do that. He's scared of horse riding.

45:40Jason Hoyte:Was that important to your wife?

45:42Mike Minogue:No, no, it wasn't. Oh, no, because she used to ride horses back in the day, and she hadn't, and she'd always banged on about wanting to ride horses again. Oh, man. And I said, wasn't this stallion over here enough for you? And she said, no.

45:57Oh, hope that helps.

46:00Jason Hoyte:Reeburger voucher regardless, though.

46:02Mike Minogue:Yeah, you know what these girls are like. They love Reeburger. Is this Queens of the Stone Age? I don't know, pugs. The Hauraki Big Show With Jace, Mike and Keezy Tune in weekdays at 4 on Radio Hauraki Thank you bus Wish you were here It is the Hauraki Big Show with Keezy Mogey And old Pugsana over there And now it is time for We're off to find the Brewery of the Day Yeah God we butcher stings on this show Brewery of the Day Every single day in the lead up to Bear Varner we feature a different brewery today. One Drop Brewing Co. One Drop. One Drop. Straight out of South Sydney, One Drop Brewing Co.

46:47Mike Minogue:Oh, Sido. Are bringing a serious dose of flavour to Bearvana 2026. These guys are all about good beer, good vibes, brewing the kind of drops that get people talking. Yeah. One Drop are bringing their unique Aussie flavour to Bearvana 2026. Tickets available at bearvana.co.nz. I've not really got around the Australian craft beer scene? No, I've spent a fair amount of time over in Australia and I find the Australian beer very difficult to get behind. Not one drop, I haven't tried and I'm always open to try and start. I've had the old one that's been spot on but they've just got a very different palette over there, which is a good thing about beers as well, right?

47:26And wines, you go travel the world, you get something different. But yeah,

47:30Mike Minogue:this absolute shock is over there. They must be good to be getting an invite to Beervana though, right? Absolutely. Absolutely. And it is this thing of offering something different. So I always like trying them because I'm always interested to see what they've come up with next, especially when it's... You always like getting steamed. Especially when it's crafty beers, you know? You're going to get something that's a little bit different, but people that are passionate about their beers, and it's the hops, right? The hops are the different thing. So, yeah, looking forward to trying it, but it is a weird one.

48:00Although I don't know if I've tried a lot of craft beers from around the world, really.

48:04Mike Minogue:Well, to be honest, when I was over in Europe, one of my favourite things is wherever you are on holiday is just to try a local beer. Yeah. And just keep trying different. It's so great. Yeah. And I've found that I quite like the taste of every beer I've ever tasted. Yeah. The environment helps a lot. If it's a hot, sunny bastard, I'm into it. Yeah, you can serve me anything and I'll drink it. Pugs, what do you look for in a brewery? Well, first of all, good beer, good vibes, and brewing the kind of drops to get people talking. So these guys are off to a great start.

48:31Jason Hoyte:Right. But for me, I like a place that has character and a place that proudly displays their history. Like, I can learn a little bit about the joint while I'm having a beer there. Oh, yeah. A place that does good, like, music or just has a bang-and-playlist. You know what I mean? And a condo machine in the toilets. Yeah, man. Oh, really? And a connie machine. Yeah, absolutely. Because he was just joking, but you've gone, yes. Yeah, 100%. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was just joshing. But really, straight up. I would prefer it if the breweries of the day would specify whether or not they have a Connie machine in their bathroom.

49:04Jason Hoyte:Wouldn't you just bring your own?

49:05Mike Minogue:You prefer to buy it on the side. It has to be from the machine. And you like to go into the toilet and buy it. And the deodorant, the scent. Yes, and the deodorant machine as well next to the Connie machine. He was joking again, but you're like, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

49:18Jason Hoyte:Wow.

49:19Mike Minogue:That's interesting, folks.

49:20Jason Hoyte:Yeah, so good vibes. What did I say? Character, playlist, history, Connie machine, deodorant machine, both in the bathroom. Yeah, because you're reeking. Yeah, that's the vibe.

49:27Mike Minogue:Because you're reeking. Yeah. So that is your Beervana Brewery of the day. It is One Drop Brewing Co. And they're going to be at Beervana. Get your tickets. The Hauraki Big Show with Jace, Mike and Kesey. Tune in weekdays at four on Radio Hauraki.

49:48Mike Minogue:Well, that is the big show done and dusted for Monday the 10th of August, 2026. We warmed up as per with a big show disclaimer, which is the new name of our podcast. Bonus content, we do it daily. Pugs, you've got a little snippet of tonight's episode.

50:02Jason Hoyte:Yeah, this one's all about, we were talking about your snow trip that you're planning later on and a bit of ski chat, fellas. So while I was falling on my ass all the way down, I hear this voice. How you going, Mogi? And there's somebody on a ski lift who I don't know. Tell me their phone is out. Who I don't know. Oh, I hung up with them. Last year I was up snowboarding In inverted commas And absolutely humiliated By somebody going past On one of those cheer lift Ski lift thingies Who spotted me falling down the hill

50:35Mike Minogue:Were you in full Officer Mogia tyre Is that how they spotted you? Yeah I think that might have been I was falling down the hill Going I think what would have happened

50:45Jason Hoyte:Is you fell on your back And then obviously Their ski lift got knocked From your massive honker You've doubled up on the honker joke on the honker joke. You've done that in the podcast. Well, they'll have to wait to hear the disclaimer. No, no, no. But pubs, no, no, you can't. It's the same joke. I like it. No, no, no. I'm sorry. You need another one. There's plenty of stuff that you can pick on. But I worked on that way more than the first time I did it. Sometimes you've got to workshop stuff for the live show, which is what the disclaimer's all about. You know what I mean? But that's probably the rehearsal was why it fell so flat, Casey.

51:11Is that what you felt?

51:12Mike Minogue:I didn't have a natural reaction because I've seen this. I can hear the listeners just scream. It's like, yeah, it bombed. Yeah. But you learn the most from that, though. Yeah, sweet. And it's been great being here as well, fellas. Yeah, you'll be lying in bed tonight thinking about this for sure. There's plenty of that in the show I'll be thinking about now. Especially in the last break, too. Sour taste. Sour taste. Sour taste. In the mouth there. Hey, Pugs, what are you up to tonight? Thinking about all my mistakes. That's right.

51:38Jason Hoyte:And you're having your marriage lentils? Yeah, my marry me lentils, not my F me lentils. And I want to go for a run, too, because I haven't had time to look out. Tonight? today. Yeah. Good on you, Matt. Every now and then I go for a little night run because I haven't had time and I'll feel crappy if I don't do something. A night run. Yep. Yeah, he calls it a night run. Oh, yeah. Cool, cool. He goes and steals clothes off people's washing lines.

51:59Mike Minogue:Oh, off the lines and that. Yeah, that's right. You've told us. Is that what a night run is? Have you heard of his prowler poem? I was going to say. I was going to say. I've moved out of Parnell. You've called it going for a prowl in the past, but I don't know why. Anyway, look, it's been great having you here. We'll be back again tomorrow. Moggy's on holiday. The full show back on Monday. Yeah, boy. Until then, we'll see you later. Bye. Have fun, fellas.
