FULL SHOW: The Housewarming

17:19Yes. Yes.

17:23Fellas, I started watching Happy Gilmore 2. Oh, Netflix. Yeah, it's on Netflix, man. It's not as bad as I thought it was going to be.

17:31Mike Minogue:Yeah? Yeah. I've heard terrible things. About half an hour into it. Nowhere near as bad as every other, because pretty much he's been terrible. I love Adam Sandler as a human. And loved his early stuff, but it's been some pretty terrible drack for a long, long time. So yeah, it's not as bad as I thought it was going to be. The problem I've got right with Happy Gilmore 2 I haven't watched it, I'm not going to watch it Because Happy Gilmore 1 was such a pivotal movie In my childhood I watched that movie a lot with my dad and my brother We loved it And it's the same with I don't know, movies from my childhood Which I absolutely love And now all of a sudden they're making sequels to them And like Zoolander 2 for example wasn't very good That was a big one for me when I was younger as well And I think it's too important I'm not going to watch it Because everyone I've talked to is going Oh it's okay Yeah.

18:20Mike Minogue:It needs to be as awesome as the first one. Oh, yeah. Otherwise, I don't want to watch it. It's never going to happen. Yeah, unfortunately. No, no, no. So, so far, it's two buzzies out of five. Right. Out of a possible five. And I'll let you know when I finish watching it, probably in about a year and a half. How many cameos have you seen so far? Oh, about 50. In the first half an hour? About 50. And believe it or not, it doesn't help the storyline. Oh. No. Yeah. I'll never forget, Game of Thrones had Ed Sheeran in an episode. Oh, really? Yeah. Like in the fifth season or something. Right. And it was just before they kind of went off a wee bit of a cliff compared to the quality of the earlier seasons.

18:53Mike Minogue:There's something about cameos for me which just draw me straight out. It's like when Keith Richards, who I love, was in Pirates of the Caribbean. I was just, oh, it's Keith Richards. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. I agree. They ruin the immersion. Pugs, what did you watch, man? I watched, well, I attempted to watch another episode of Alien Earth, which is by FX, and it's on Disney+. Oh, yeah. It's a TV show, is it? It's a TV show, the first alien TV show in the franchise there. It's an alien TV show? Yeah. And it's set before the original Alien. And it's basically about a ship of dangerous creatures that have been caught for research crash lands on a futuristic Earth and they all escape.

19:38And one of them is the titular character or the titular creature, the alien, the xenomorph. Right, okay. Any good? Nah, it's ass. It's really ass. I reviewed it on my sub stack, actually, if you remember that. You remember that, bad boy? Yeah. I reviewed the first two episodes, and I just really couldn't get around it. Didn't draw me in. You know when they try to add lore to a story, and it's really not necessary? Like, they're just trying to expand on a universe where it's not needed. We don't need to know what happened here. And also, the main character is a cyborg, so there's no real human danger.

20:14Right. At least in the first two or three episodes, which is when you need to draw me in. I need to have some human danger. And also, massive inconsistencies. You've seen Alien. Have you seen Alien?

20:25Mike Minogue:Yeah, ages ago. Who's seen the poster? That is the most terrifying, dangerous creature on the planet. And they managed to bring it out into the light, ruin all the mystery and danger around it, and it's just running around like an animal. Is the robot hot? Yeah, she's all right. Oh, it's a she. How many buzzies do you give the robot? Out of five. I'll rate the show for you, man. And it's a solid one and a half. One and a half pussies out of five. How do you describe it? As ass. Yeah. And you love ass, you were saying off air, but you say you don't like it. What's that? Huh? Huh? What? The Hauraki Big Show.

21:02Mike Minogue:Weekdays from four on Radio Hauraki. Bit of super groove on your Friday afternoon here on the Hauraki Big Show. Four minutes to five o 'clock with Kizimogi and Pug-san. Coming up after five, the Friday throbber. Of course, today's theme is Hoity J's holiday. Yeah. He's currently knee-deep in his vacation and will be back on Monday. You guys got big tunes lined up for that? Relatively big. I like mine. I think it's quite big. It's big in my mind and in my heart. Yeah, right. Okay, I've got quite a softie. Oh, yeah? But it's one that people, I think, will get in. What else is new? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

21:32Mike Minogue:Come on, man. Also, after 5 o 'clock, another chance to get yourself in the draw to join us in Fiji, plus a chance to win some cash, too, with the TRB Big Bet, so make sure you stay tuned. The Hauraki Big Show with Jace, Mike and Keezy. Tune in weekdays at four on Radio Hauraki.

21:54It's the Hauraki Big Show's Friday Throbber.

21:58Mike Minogue:Oh, Throbber. That's right, the Friday Throbber. We each pick a song to a particular theme. You then call us on 0800HAURAKI. Vote for which one you like the most. It gets played in full and that person gets a score on the scoreboard. I'm currently way, way in the back. Yeah. You and Jase, Mike, are way out in front. We're in the front, man. And Pugsan's actually closing in on me. Oh, really? And he's only here every now and then. Yes, every now and then. You're only two wins away from me. Holy! It's crazy. Today's theme, though, is Hoardy J's holiday. Fellas, who wants to go first? I'm happy going first.

22:34This is what I think old Hoardy Jizzbott will be up to on his four-day holiday.

22:44You love this song.

22:55That is the feel-good hit of the summer by Queens of the Stone.

23:01Mike Minogue:It's a massive tune, that one. I think the exact opposite, right? Yeah. I think I can picture Hoardy J doing pretty much nothing. If he does go somewhere, it'll be pretty close by. Yeah. There's one version I can see where he sort of gets out of bed, he makes a cup of coffee, he sits down, you see the sun come up in the background and then go down and then he sighs once and then goes back to bed. Yeah. And he does that four days in a row. I could see that happening. He would love that. So I've gone for a different vibe. This is more what I'm picturing for Hoardy J.

23:39Mike Minogue:On the road again Just can't wait to get on the road again Because it was a four-day holiday. The life I love is making music with my friends I can't wait to get on the road again I just think that's more of a hoity J On Holiday vibe. Yes. And he'll be going on the road again to his family batch, which is an hour away. Yeah. That'll be a huge deal for him. Yes. Yes, that's my choice. That's a great choice, man. I just picked an absolute tune titled Holiday by Turnstile.

24:22Because he's on holiday. Yeah.

24:28We need more Turnstile on Horaki. There you go, man. The first couple of seconds I was a bit worried there for you. So was I.

24:33Mike Minogue:Yeah. We need more turnstile or we could have more phooies. What do you reckon? You decide, New Zealand. Give us a call on 0800 Hauraki. We've also got a biffy Clyro vinyl to give away. We'll pick someone randomly from the callers through. So 0800 Hauraki, have your say on the Friday throbber. In the meantime, another absolute throbber. It's Nirvana. Smells like teen spirit. The Hauraki Big Show. Weekdays from four on Radio Hauraki. It's the Hauraki Big Show's Friday Throbber It sure is Doosh, doosh And it's the biggest thing in New Zealand radio It is The Friday Throbber on Radio Hauraki We each pick a tune Today's theme is Hoi DJ's Holiday Yes Mogi, you got us started with an absolute banger I did, here it is

25:37Mike Minogue:Queens of the Stone Age, feel good hit of the summer. I went for something a little more Hoity J's speed. Also a song that came out when he was in his mid-30s.

25:52Listen to that, man. On the road again. Just can't wait to get on the road again.

26:01Mike Minogue:Heading to the family batch. Bit of Willie Nelson there on the road again. And that is Jase on his way to the family batch for probably one night. And then coming back. To beat the traffic. Yes. I went for a song by Turnstile called Holiday.

26:35Mike Minogue:Nice. You know what I'm saying, man? Yeah, man. You know what I'm saying. Pugs coming in red hot there. Let's go to the line, see what New Zealand wants to hear. Jack from Auckland, how you going, brother? Good, thank you. And you? Yeah, really good, Jack. Which song would you like to see win the thrower today, man? Keezy, please. Oh, on the road again with Jack. Good on you, Jack, mate, you backbone. Thanks for calling. Well, Randall, you're in a hurricane. How you doing, mate? How you going? Yeah, good, mate. Good thanks, Randall, man. Who are you voting for today? Oh, mate, it's got to be Keezy.

27:10Oh, my God. See, this is the trouble, right? This is the sort of thing where Jase will get the vote for this. Keezy, you complained that it wasn't a throbber, but at the end of the day, the public wanted it. So the issue is not the music. The issue is our listeners. We've got to get new listeners.

27:24Mike Minogue:Yeah. And we've discussed this a lot. Like, our listeners are derbrates. Yeah, exactly. You know what I mean? And we just got to cater to it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Exactly. What I like the most about this is that Pugs would have spent hours finding the most hard-out holiday-based, deep-cut song from a band no one's heard of. Yes. And got no votes. Okay. That was very... Can I just say, Keezy? Love you to death, man. Very antagonistic of you. What are you talking about? That was real wind-up stuff. Welcome to the big show, PagSar. Oh, is that what this is? That's what the big show is, man. It's a bloody tune, all right?

27:55Mike Minogue:Mogi, I'm surprised you didn't get more votes because that is one of their biggest bangers. Well, it is an absolute tune, but what you've done there, Keezy, you've gone both ends of the spectrum there. You've got a vote of an eight-year-old and the vote of an 80-year-old. That is unbelievable. That is unbelievable. Right now to hug it. Here you go, New Zealand, turn it up. An absolute throbber of a tune. It's Willie Nelson on the road again. Pitch a hoity J driving to the family batch in his 2007 Mazda Acceler. Spot on tune. On the road again. The Hauraki Big Show with Jace, Mike and Keezy. Tune in weekdays at four on Radio Hauraki.

28:29Mike Minogue:Got us a tune. Chemical Brothers let forever be on the Hauraki Big Show. 22 minutes past five this Friday afternoon. Just a few texts here. Just quickly, fellas, on 3483. Throbber Gold. Turns out that was a tune. Okay, so hopefully people that haven't heard that song before did enjoy it, it was Willie Nelson on the road again. But right now it's time for... It's the Hauraki Big Show Big Bet with the GAB. That's right, the Big Show Big Bet, where you give us a call on 0800 Hauraki, then our man Dilly from the office. Our resident guy. The resident guy.

What do you do for a crust, brother? Plumber. A plumber. A plumber. A man of a few words. Yeah, nice, nice. And Luke, you much of a sports fan? Yeah, I'm a boy. Yeah, good on you. All right. Dilly, why don't you tell him his two bets that he gets to choose between? Right. We've gone big again, which is curious because I don't think we've actually had one come in yet. No. Hey, Luke, your first option. We've got Lando Norris to win the Azerbaijan Grand Prix on Monday morning with fastest lap, which is paying six bucks.

29:47Mike Minogue:or any NRL finals game this weekend to go to Golden Point, which is paying$7.50. Wow, Luke, which one of those would you like us to put a$100 bonus bet on, man? I'll go with NRL, mate. NRL, good on you, mate. We'll lock that in. So it's a$100 bonus bet. If it comes in, we just take that$100 back. You get the rest of the cash. That's a good$600 there, mate. We'll just pop you on hold and we'll hook you up after this. Don't forget to gamble responsibly. Of course. R18 as well and that's all thanks to the TAB your home for sports multis in play betting and power plays all the T's and C's at haraki.co.nz feels good stuff Pug San nice not having to do all the admin actually it's good stuff you liking it man yeah it just gives my voice a bit of a rest I feel like I get too keezied out you know yeah keezy man just look after yourself man do you ever get sick of my voice Moggy I love it man I can't get enough of it what else you got to tell me anything oh look just some updates on 3483 about your throbber again?

30:46Mike Minogue:No, about Pugs' housewarming that we were organising. Oh yes. Basically we are organising a massive housewarming for Pugs to say thank you. So far we've organised Shapeys. They're going to be doing a little set. Pig on a Spit. It's going to be great. There's going to be a Mary Archie band wearing backbone tees but only the tees bottom half will be naked. They'll be out on the balcony. There'll be a donkey on the balcony wearing earmuffs and a blindfold because we're also going to have fireworks on the balcony. And it's a two metre balcony. Yeah. What? And a foam party. It's going to be a foam A phone party.

31:16Mike Minogue:That text came through, 3483, a phone party. Where's that going to go? Everywhere. Oh. Or we could, well, eventually, classic phone party. We could do it in a wet area like the bathroom, you know, because that's used to moisture. I don't see why everyone else would get robbed of it. Unless you have separate areas, you have a phone party in the bathroom. That makes sense. That does make sense. And then jelly wrestling everywhere else. What? Everywhere else. You know what we could do? Just jelly all over my new apartment. Yeah. Well, you know what we could do is we could get a little jelly, inflatable pool and put that out on the balcony as well.

31:45Mike Minogue:Yes. With the donkey and the Winnie the Pooh mariachi band. That's right, and the fireworks. And the geisha girls. And the geisha girls. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. What? What? Someone texted saying they wanted geisha girls. Racism alert. It would only be racist, folks, if you didn't want them to come. I don't fire that off. It happens automatically. Yeah, that's shocking from you. They must have detected that he didn't want them. Someone here's got a really good point. What about a big bowl that everyone can put their car keys in so they don't get lost. Oh yeah. And also... But won't that make all the cocaine dirty?

32:15What? The Hodaaki Big Show with Jace, Mike and Keezy. Tune in weekdays at four on Radio Hodaaki.

32:24Mike Minogue:REM, the end of the world as we know it. It is the Hodaaki Big Show with Keezy, Mogi and old Pugsana over there. Old Pugsana over there, eh? Yeah. Five, six, seven, eight. Men, men, men, men, men, men, men, men, men. Yeah. Men, men, men, men, men, men, men, men, men, men, men, men, men.

32:47One and a half mogies. Sorry, I forgot I had to do the Jase bit. You had to do the hoity J bit. Yeah. I thought I'd massively cocked it up. Yeah, you went low. That was my bad. Jase got mad last time when I went high. He always gets mad. He's always mad about something. He won't be mad when he gets back though because he'll be all rested up after his holes. After his big vacation. Fellas, we're right on the cows pier. We're going into another couple of weeks of school holidays. Feels like we just had school holidays, doesn't it? But more are on our doorstep. And so the question becomes, what do we do with our kids?

33:22You guys don't have any, so you don't ask yourself this question. But a lot of people in New Zealand do. A lot of listeners out there will have. So I've got my daughter, old Mogi there. Mogi, Mogi, Mogi. Young Mogi, as I like to call her, in school holiday programs. Right, nice. And there's bloody heaps of the bastards out there. I used to do them. Love them. We never did when we were kids. They didn't exist. I didn't do them either. No. It was just go outside and play, pretty much. Right. Throw water balloons at passing traffic and, you know, burglarise your neighbour's houses, that sort of stuff.

33:57Oh, wow. Just innocent sort of schoolyard sort of days sort of thingies that you do when you're a young fellow there. But, yeah, there's all sorts of stuff. It's not cheap, but it's better than looking after your kids yourself. So there's a tennis one. Oh, yeah. There's an art one. There's arts and crafts. There's zoo tours and museums and all sorts of different stuff. And there's normally like 20 or 30 kids in these programs. So a great opportunity for you to get out there and get your kids a little bit educated while sort of washing your hands of any kind of responsibility around them.

34:33Mike Minogue:Yeah, right. Because I remember as a kid loving the school holidays, hating being told to go on these holiday programs. Yes. And I could see that that's now going to change once I have kids to I now do not like the school holidays just because of all the extra admin around having the kids at home. Yeah, I mean, I like having my kid around. I'm different to a lot of parents, but it's bloody pricey, man. Really? It's bloody, yeah, they're expensive. Right. So sort of, I think, nine till three for the tennis one. Right. That's six grand Six grand? Six grand What? How long is this? Two weeks? No, one week One week So that's the first week So it's pretty pricing But the quality of the teaching Right So they take all the kids And they teach them the basics of tennis and stuff Of tennis, that's right And who does the money go to?

35:22Mostly it's adults playing tennis And you get to learn from The kids get to learn from them So they'll be sitting down Right They'll be sitting down along the baselines at either end and at the net as well you get a turn to be a boy boy or girl. You sit there otherwise with your hands on your knees and you just watch and learn. Yeah right. So it's a great way of doing it. It's a great opportunity for kids to see. And everyone sort of less interactive. Everyone gets a chance

35:49Mike Minogue:to be a boy boy. Yeah a boy boy yeah. Oh that's good. It's pretty good. Right and so does the cash pay for like the coach and stuff I guess and the use of the. Yeah so the renting of the court. So the court rental is about six bucks an hour. Oh wow And then, of course, I've got to get all the kids down to the tennis court as well. What do you mean? You have to. That's a whole bunch of Ubers. So this is the program that I'm running. Oh, you run it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's six grand each for the kids. And you can come down and watch me and my wife play tennis. I mean, learn how to play tennis.

36:20Right. So my wife and I. Now, you've got to bring your own. You've got to pack your own lunch. Right, because usually that's included. Yeah.

36:26Mike Minogue:For six grand. That's a lot. It can be. Right. But that's another grand. Oh, yeah. No, that's good. Yeah, yeah, yeah. and then you just got to pick your kit up at the end of the day. I'm leaving at three, around 2.30. Doesn't it go to five? Quarter past two, quarter past two, 2.30 around there, there or thereabouts. It goes to five. So I recommend picking them up early because the gates lock. Well, not lock, but you can pull them two. So they're pretty safe. Oh, wow. Yeah. Sorry, I thought, and is your daughter hanging out with all the kids? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. She's sort of, she's sort of, she's got that sort of prison yard vibe about her.

37:01So if anybody steps out of line, she's got the tennis racket there. You know, just keep them in check. Have you been branded with a tennis ball at close quarters, Pugson? Oh, yeah. Yeah, it's not something you soon forget, brother.

37:14Mike Minogue:Not by a six-year-old. The Hauraki Big Show. Weekdays from four on Radio Hauraki. The Big Show Swingers Club is back. And this time, it's going global. Going global, all right.

We're going to be going snorkeling. Oh, yeah. It's a reef tour, man. A reef tour, which I imagine we park up in a boat, hop out, look around the reef, maybe. Yeah, that sounds about right. Yeah. You done many reef tours? Maybe one. Yeah? Maybe one.

37:54Mike Minogue:Yeah. I did a reef tour a few years back. when I went to Fiji for a wedding. Yeah. And I saw three turtles. Wow. You're joking. No. It was magical, man. So I hope we see some turtles. I don't know if they're from that area. I heard there's sharks, but like they're the little cute ones, like the sort of harmless ones. Yeah, sure. Yeah. They call them hoity jay sharks. Yeah. Because they've got really blunt teeth and they've got a massive nose. Ah, let's go to the lions. Let's go to the lions. Actually, Pugs, you can choose, man.

We're going to Fiji where happiness comes naturally.

41:07Mike Minogue:The Hauraki Big Show with Jace, Mike and Keezy. Tune in weekdays at 4 on Radio Hauraki. Damn right it's the Hauraki Big Show. It's also Friday the 19th of September 2025 and you are listening to The Big Show and it's brought to you by Reburger. Crave worthy street food freshly made with Reburger. Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum. Bloody good stuff. Mogi, are you going to get any Reburger this weekend, man? No, man, I had some last weekend, so I'm just trying to pace myself a little bit because I can see how the addiction would get out of hand. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, in fact, I've had it twice this week.

41:37Yeah, you have. That's enough, man. I got some last night, fellas. Did you? Really? Uber Eats to my house, yeah. Wow, was it good? After that gig, yeah, it was mean. So two in two days? Yeah. Wow, and that's from Mogi, who's like a recovering Reburger. Man, that's shocking. Sorry about that, man. No, no, no, I'm not trying to be insensitive to your issue. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was really excited for me and my own experience. Yeah. Yeah, right. What did you go for? It was an Impossible Burger, actually. It was a vegetarian one. Yeah, right. And then I got two fries. Did you? Only two? What? Did you complain?

42:07Sorry, two packs of fries. That's good. It was yummy, though. It was so good.

42:14Mike Minogue:Of course it was. It was so mean. It was a re-burger there. I've never... Get into the night. I've got something against Uber Eats and stuff. What? There's something deep within my soul which stops me from paying for delivery of food, unless it's a party or something. Right. Because I always think it's five minutes for me to drive there and it's way cheaper. Sure. So I just, I don't know what it is. I wish I'd get over it because Uber Eatsing seems great. That's great. I'd rather be like you. Would your mind change at all if it was buy one, get one free on the fries? Because that's what I had.

42:45And that really sold me. And it was only available via Uber Eats?

42:48Mike Minogue:Yes. Yeah, but then you've still got to pay for the delivery. I feel like I should just go there and buy two fries. It'd be the same. Also, the only time I Uber Eats is when I'm hung. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what I'm saying? Well, I did it on the way home from the gig, so I was making decisions that were very responsible at that time. Actually, just on the gig, we've got to talk about this a little later on because Pugs did promise quite a lot. Yes. And then he under-delivered. Also coming up, if you've entered the draw for Big Deck Energy, we'll be calling a listener and giving them$2 ,500 worth of kit thanks to Trey Tested.

43:21Mike Minogue:So make sure your phone's on. Ah! Red! Ah! All right, chillies. The Hauraki Big Show with Jace, Mike and Keezy. Tune in weekdays at four on Radio Hauraki. It's a lovely song, isn't it? It's beautiful, man. Oh, man. It's the Big Show with Keezy, Mogi and Pugsan and Horty J back on Monday. Mogi, you know how Pearl Jam have got some absolute belters, right? And then they've got some really nice, like nothing, man? Yes, bellety thingies. Like nice little, like, Yeah, they've got a good range. Good range. That's true, man. Yeah. You've always said that. You guys that want to add any more about Pearl Jam?

43:57Yeah. I feel like everything that can be said about Pearl Jam has been said about Pearl Jam.

44:02Mike Minogue:Now that I've said that, that thing I just said, that's everything ticked off. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey, just on bands and that, last night I judged a Battle of the Bands competition. It was absolutely fantastic. The band that won killed. They did a cover of TLC's Waterfalls. Yeah. and they absolutely crushed it. It was awesome. One of the other judges - Was it Rocky? No, kind of. No, it just was a really, really good rendition and they mixed it in with about - It was like a medley of songs from the 90s and 2000s. Right. Played with rock instruments and stuff, but they very much nailed it. The other judge was Bo Runger.

44:38Mike Minogue:Oh, yes. How good. From Stella. So I was like, why am I here? Yeah, that was a good question. Did anyone have an answer for that? Nah. But they kept giving me free beers. Nice. That was sick. Yeah. Well, that would have been difficult for her to concentrate, of course, because you were in your muscle tee. So Bo Runga would have been like, oh, my God. Yeah, who's this stud over here? Well, no, I had my muscle tee, and I feel like I've said it like 100 times. It was on under a dress shirt. But you can still tell. Like, I saw you, and I'm like, boom, that's a muscle tee. Yeah. You can just see it.

45:09You can tell by the ribbing and the deepening. You can, the deepening. Yeah, the tissue. Right, yeah, yeah. Aren't you supposed to wear muscle tees underneath your dress shirt, though? Yeah, but normally you'd have it buttoned up, not open. Oh, okay. Yeah.

45:21Mike Minogue:With your gold chain sort of hanging on your chest. It wasn't a gold chain, it was a ponamu. But I have put it on a gold chain, though. Yeah. Because, you know, I'm a humble skux. But I was judging with Bo Runga. Now, before we left, just to paint a little picture, Mogi, Pug-san said to me, I'm keen for a massive one tonight. Oh, yeah, but he wasn't talking about drinking. What were you talking about? Huh? I thought you were talking about drinking. Don't do that to the mic. Put a mic on the mic. That's off-putting. He said he's keen for a big one, so I was like, cool. I'm keen to have a big one as well.

45:55Mike Minogue:The gig started just after 7. Yes. It was supposed to wrap at 11. Right. And what time did you go home, Pugs? Look, Chris, I would say that I got there at approximately maybe 7.30 or something like that. Not the question. After the show here. Just did the podcast and stuff, made the potties and everything for the show and then I made my way straight there because I was like, I've got to see Kesey on the judging. And I've got to see that muscle singlet in action. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what I mean? But I did end up leaving at approximately 8.30pm. We were there for an hour. Is that right? Roughly, yeah.

46:28Yeah, right.

46:29Mike Minogue:So how do you respond to that, right? Because not everyone from Hodaki went. Like, Isaac went. Isaac's not from Hodaki. No, but he's from here. We covered this yesterday. And he's a lead. And he was like, he's one of us. No one's denying that. You know, Hayley, who does our - Weston Ra. Weston Ra. This isn't what's on the dinner. No, it's not. Or Hayley who comes over from the CI team. Yeah. They were the only ones still there. I was ready for a huge night with Pugson. Yeah. Not only did you leave at 8.30, you didn't even say goodbye. No. Well, if I can put it to you this way, Chris, there was a member of our party who was playing some form of human pinball in the mosh.

47:06Right. And I made an executive decision at a point right after TLC because I had to stick around for that. Yeah. It was huge. I made an executive decision that I personally needed to leave Right And I was hoping deep down that this person would join me Right On my exit of the venue

47:24Mike Minogue:Right, because that's weird So this person obviously wasn't just a regular member of NZME Because that would be a weird thing to try Not a regular, not a regular by any means, Chris Because you were going to meet up with your missus there last night Yeah Weren't you going to meet up with her? Yeah Because I was excited to drink with the both of you actually responsibly Oh, 100 % man And don't get me wrong and we talked about it all night the night before, we were keen as to see old Keezy in action. Yeah, right. What happened? And how did she feel about you bringing home this random NZME person?

47:53Mike Minogue:Pugs? What? She, look. What? I just, it was. What? Why are you so weird? She's in Studio B right now, so it's just like. She's giving you the absolute evils, but I think we can tiptoe around it. You were saying she got maggoted. Oh, was it her? What? The Hauraki Big Show. Weekdays from 4 on Radio Hauraki.

I want you to know this doesn't count but I appreciate the opportunity to sing along to The Sting so I'm going to let it pass.

52:31Yeah. Do I? You don't get any potential win for a voucher? Well, no, because you didn't email it to meetpattynip69 at gmail.com. Can I quickly do that now? Yeah. Really? Go on. Type it up. Okay, I'm typing it up. We'll wait. Why don't you just read it out to siri.com or whatever, you know?

52:47Mike Minogue:No, no, I like to type the old-fashioned way. Okay. So I'll go home and type that out. Basically, the advice I need, fellas, is I've got the neighbours coming around tonight to our house for dinner. Not dinner, finger food and drinks. Yeah, you don't want to get full with what you've got ahead of you after that. You don't need people to get into a slumber. Yeah. Mogi. When it's time to hit the old. Can I just, just before we get into this. Just bloated and all that. Do you want to borrow my bowl from my housewarming man? Your keys and the bowl. Don't make the keys because everyone's in the house.

53:17Mike Minogue:Can I just quickly, just so you know, so the neighbours are like a 50 - and 60-year-old woman whose partner is 60. You're a sick bastard, yeah. You're a mad dog. And then the other neighbours, they're in the house joined to ours, and that's a Singaporean man in his 60s and his son who's probably in his mid-30s. So it's not exactly like, I know what you guys are saying, that's not the vibe at all. They're not the perfect numbers, but beggars, you know. Am I a beggar? Biggers can't be choosers. In this situation, yes, you will be. How many buzzies? What do you mean? What'd you rate them? His neighbours, five.

53:54Mike Minogue:Oh, okay. Five buzzies out of five. They're all fantastic. Now, and also, I'm not trying to tee up some sort of weird neighbours party thing. I know what you're saying. You already have teated it. No, no, I know. You're coming over tonight. No, I know, but it's just a regular party. Is that what you said is not a party? What's going on? You said it's finger food. What? Is there a question here? Well, yeah, I'm trying to get to it. It's about what we're going to be eating.

54:16Mike Minogue:Um, three, what? Huh? Finger foods. Hmm. Nice. Basically my wife was, has asked me to stop at the old super on the way home, grab some stuff. Cause they're all going to be here at seven 30 on the dot. I bet on the dot. Uh, they will be to be honest. Cause it's quite late. First and first served. Pugs on what's that? First and first served. Yeah. On the finger foods. What? What are you? Why are you just saying that to Pugs on? It's weird. Well, he doesn't know. Oh yeah. I'm learning about what? Finger foods Right, it's first in Well, you're right, Mogi It is first in first serve When it comes to finger foods Yes I suggested sausage rolls Great choice Is it though?

54:56Mike Minogue:No A bit paste, but dusty Do you know what I mean? You have a plate You have sauces Oh, yeah So you're going to have a sauce A little bit of tamati sauce Self-saucer? Huh? My wife really wants to make Asparagus wraps So like bread with asparagus In the middle And a little bit of butter Yeah That's a no Why? Just because of the percentage of people that then have it affect, I think it's 40 % of people, it affects the smell of the urine. But that doesn't matter. We're not all going to be in one room sniffing each other's urine. Why would that be an issue? I mean, they're just going to be going to the loo.

55:29Mike Minogue:They might be able to smell it. I'm not going to smell it. Okay. No. It's all good, man. Oh, I didn't come out for a fight. I'm just saying. Yeah, I was just wondering how you guys felt about those food choices. So what have we got so far? We've got sausage rolls and asparagus rolls. So all you have offering is rolls. You think that's how far your ideas go? Just rolls? Oh no, we've got dessert. Something wrapped in something else? We've got dessert. Go on. Profitur rolls?
